No  Angel  Could

Their  numbers,  alas,  are  smaller  every  yean 
But  the  term  "living  legend"  still  applies  to 
a  few  people  who  played  starring  roles  in 
making  lUP  what  it  is  today. 


'  his  issue  of  lUP  Magazine  is 
privileged  to  pay  tribute  to  two 
of  them.  One,  Trevor  Hadley,  |£ 
whom  I  happen  to  have  known  '^ 
since  my  childhood,  is  the  sub- 
ject of  lUP  in  My  Life.  The 
other  is  Nancy  Newkerk,  who 

I        recently  committed  the  almost 

unbelievable  act  of  retiring  from  the  university. 

This  is  not  the  first  time  she  has  done  some- 
thing like  this.  Nancy  resigned  from  the  univer- 
sity in  1967,  after  ten  years  as  dean  of  women.  (I      j 
once  wrote  a  story  in  which  I  mistakenly  called 
her  the  assistant  dean  of  women.  Trouble  was,  I 
could  not  imagine  anyone  as  young  as  she  looked — and 
was — being  in  the  senior  position.)  But  in  1978,  she 
returned  for  her  "second  career"  at  lUP  as  associate 
dean  of  admissions. 

Having  two  careers  meant  Nancy  was  part  of  lUP 
during  five  decades,  which  encompassed  a  lot  of  history 
and  a  lot  of  students.  In  recent  years,  she  worked  as 
closely  with  prospective  students  and  graduate  students 
as  she  had  with  undergraduates  during  her  dean  of 
women  days.  As  a  result,  those  she  counts  as  friends 
from  these  experiences  today  range  in  age  from  the  late 
teens  to  the  soon-to-be  sixties. 

And  how  we  all  have  loved  her.  When  Frank  Sinatra 
sang  about  "Nancy  (With  the  Laughing  Face),"  he  could 
have  meant  our  Nancy.  After  all,  "She  takes  the  winter 
and  makes  it  summer,  but  summer  could  take  some 
lessons  from  her... No  angel  could  replace  Nancy  with 
the  laughing  face." 

We'll  miss  you  like  crazy,  Nancy.  lUP  is  ready  for 
your  third  career.

lUP  in  My  Lite 

lUP,  as  both  college 
and  university,  has 
played  a  major  role 
in  Trevor  Hadley's 
experience,  and  he  has 
returned  the  favor.  Yet, 
the  years  he  spent  in 
Indiana  are  only  part  of 
the  exciting,  productive 
life  he  has  led.

The  New 
American  Girl 


by  John  Englert  and  Regan  Houser 


With  the  nom  de  plume  Nelhe  Bly,  EHzabeth  Jane  Cochran 
stomped  all  over  the  notion  that  women's  place  was  at  home 
and  became  the  nation's  leading  journalist,  peifomiing  stunts 
that  men  would  never  dare  to  attempt. 


\cllie  Bly  went 
places  most  iiiiie- 

teentli-ceiiluiy 

Americans  had 

never  been.  Bnl 

where  she  started 

was  right  here. 


Bom  on  May  5.  1S64,  in  Cochran's  Mills.  Pa.,  a 
tiny  town  in  Armstrong  County,  she  was  raised 
with  a  household  full  of  brothers  who  constantly 
tested  her.  The  family  eventually  moved  from 
the  country  to  the  river  town  of  Apollo.  Her  father,  a 
judge,  died  when  she  was  just  six  years  old. 

Indiana  State  Normal  School  was  barely  four  years 
old  when  Cochrane  (she  added  the  "e"  for  flair)  enrolled 
in  September.  1879.  and  lived  on  the  fourth  floor  of 
John  Sutton  Hall.  She  was  a  scholar  without  a  .scholar- 
ship, without  much  of  an  opportunity  to  work  her  way 
through  school  in  nineteenth-century  America.  And.  her 
family  lacked  the  wherewithal  to  support  her  in  her 
quest  for  an  education.  Thus,  her  formal  education 
ended  abruptly,  as  did  her  plans  to  teach,  when  she 
dropped  out  just  before  Christmas  that  same  year.  She 
was  only  fifteen.  One  can  only  imagine  what  greater 
heights  this  woman  might  have  reached  had  she  been 
able  to  complete  her  studies.  The  courses  that  she  was 
able  to  pursue  at  Indiana,  however,  no  doubt  aided  her 
immensely  in  becoming  a  highly  successful  journalist. 

The  family  moved  to  Oakland  (near  Pittsburgh)  and 
then  to  Old  Allegheny  City.  She  and  the  family  strug- 
gled, working  at  whatever  job  came  along,  and  it  was 
not  until  .January.  1883.  that  she  found  employment  as  a 
reporter.  Responding  to  an  article  in  the  Pittsburg  Dis- 
patch called  "What  Girls  Are  Good  For,"  Cochrane,  just 
twenty  years  old.  made  her  way  into  the  editor's  office 


with  a  challenge.  If  she  could  write  a  good  article  about 
divorce — a  subject  discussed  only  in  hushed  tones — she 
would  have  a  job.  She  pleased  the  editor  and  was  hired 
for  five  dollars  a  week. 

Choosing  the  pen  name  Nellie  Bly.  after  Stephen  Fos- 
ter's ditt> .  the  young  reporter  conquered  such  controver- 
sial topics  as  unemployment,  the  plight  of  women  and 
children,  and  the  plight  of  the  female  working  poor.  She 
was  a  reporter,  but  she  was  also  a  crusader.  After  tromp- 
ing  through  Pittsburgh,  unescorted,  no  less,  peering  in 
the  darkest  and  dingiest  of  places  for  stories,  she  ached 
for  a  bigger  assignment. 

She  begged  her  editor  to  allow  her  to  travel  to  Mexico 
to  report  on  the  shaky  political  scene.  Reluctantly,  he 
agreed.  A  passage  from  The  Amazing  Nellie  Bly  offers 
an  apt  description  of  her  activity:  "She  went  to  many 
out-of-the-way  places  never  before  visited  by  foreign- 
ers. She  stayed  in  small  villages,  each  with  its  own 
army,  and  saw  the  soldiers — half-breeds.  Indians,  and  old 
con\  icts — smoking  marijuana  cigarettes.  She  reported  this 
too  to  Pittsburg." 

Several  months  into  her  trip,  after  going  a  little  too 
far  in  what  she  reported  about  government  activities, 
she  received  an  anonymous  warning  and  headed  home. 
However,  she  smuggled  a  suitcase  full  of  notes,  so  the 
stories  she  published  after  her  return  about  peons,  pris- 
ons, and  corruption  made  her  a  more  respected  and  pop- 
ular reporter.

Still,  she  wanted  more,  telling  her  newspaper  friend 
Frasmus  Wilson  she  wanted  to  "crash  a  New  York 
newspaper,  tall  ni  lo\e.  niarr\  a  millionaire,  and  reform 
the  world."  She  eertamls  had  hii:h  hopes,  and  she  real- 
ized most  of  them. 

BIy  gained  a  job  at  the  New  York  WtirUI  and  the 
respect  of  its  publisher.  Joseph  Pulitzer,  by  pulling 
another  siuni.  She  feigned  insanity  and  had  herself  com- 
mitted to  an  asylum.  After  ten  days,  the  WorUI  arranged 
for  her  discharge  and  then  ran  her  articles  about  the  hor- 
rors of  asylum  living. 

In  her  most  famous  feat,  she  set  off  on  a  trip  around 
Ihe  world  in  November,  I8S9.  Her  goal  was  to  make  the 


trip  in  seventy-nine  days  and  beat  the  fictional  character 
Phileas  Fogg  in  Jules  Verne's  Around  the  World  in 
Eighty  Days.  The  World  covered  her  trip  as  best  it  could 
by  telegram  and  kept  Ihe  readers'  interest  by  publishing 
a  game  and  plenty  of  speculation  on  her  activities. 

She  made  the  trip  in  record  speed  in  seventy-two 
days.  "At  3:51  on  that  winter's  afternoon,  January  25. 
1890.  a  slim,  smiling,  suntanned  girl  stepped  off  a  grimy 
railroad  car  in  Jersey  City.  New  Jersey,  waved  her 
ghillie  cap.  and  the  impatient  mob  went  wild  at  the 
sight."  stated  a  Washington  Post  article  written  in  1977.

Bly  took  the  Worht's  readers  on  all  kinds  ol  adven- 
tures, from  an  interview  with  BulTalo  Bill  to  providing  a 
firsthand  account  of  life  as  a  chorus  girl.  She  had 
accomplished  everything  she  told  Erasmus  Wilson  she 
would,  except  marry  a  millionaire  (her  followers  always 
speculated  on  the  falling-in-love  part,  because  she  had 
had  so  many  admirers  and  opportunities). 

In  1893.  traveling  home  on  a  train  from  Nebraska 
alter  covering  a  famine  brought  about  by  drought  and 
harsh  winters  and  starting  a  relief  effort  for  farmers,  she 
met  Robert  Seaman,  a  seventy-two-year-old  millionaire. 
They  married  after  several  days,  anti  she  resigned  from 
the  UV)/7(/.  leaving  a  void  that  never  was  filled. 

In  1904.  Bly  was  left- to  manage  Seaman's  company 
and  lortune  after  he  died.  She  started  the  American  Steel 
Barrel  Company  and  mass  produced  the  new  container, 
to  which  she  heki  the  patent.  But  by  1912.  her  accoun- 
tants discovered  that  the  cornpany  had  been  robbed  by 
dishonest  employees.  By  the  next  year,  the  company 
was  bankrupt.  She  sailed  for  Europe  in  1914  for  a  three- 
week  vacation.  The  outbreak  of  World  War  I.  however. 
kept  her  in  Austria  until  1919.  She  joined  the  staff  of  the 
New  York  Evening  Journal  as  a  correspondent  to  sup- 
plement her  income,  producing  a  column  that  provided 
an  avenue  to  finding  homes  for  abandoned  children. 

Bly  died  of  pneumonia  in  New  York  City  on  January 
27.  1922.  at  the  age  of  fifty-seven.  Almost  penniless, 
she  was  buried  in  an  unmarked  grave  in  the  Bronx.  In 
her  obituary,  the  New  York  Evening  Journal  said.  "She 
was  considered  to  be  the  best  reporter  in  America."  In 
1978,  the  New  York  Press  Club  placed  a  monument 
near  her  grave  as  a  tribute  and  honor  to  "one  of  the  first 
respected  female  reporters  in  this  country."  And.  on 
September  28.  1972.  Nellie  Bly.  pseudonym  of  Eliza-

IlFinlV^Life 

In  1932,  America  was  in  the  depths  of  the  Great  Depression. 
As  the  graduating  class  of  Punxsutawney  High  School 
marched  to  the  stage,  all  minds  were  focused  on  the  future. 


II  p.  as  both 
college  and  iiniver- 
sit>,  has  played  a 
major  role  in 
'n  evor  lladley's 
experience,  and 
he  has  returned 
the  favor,  ^et. 
the  years  he  spent 
in  Indiana  are  only 
part  of  the  excit- 
ing, productive  life 
he  has  led. 


Where  do  I  go  from  here?"  "What's  oul  there 
For  me?"  "What  impact  can  I  have  on  these 
terrible  economic  conditions?"  "Can  1  possi- 
bly bring  a  family  into  this  world?" 
These  questions  continued  to  haunt  one  young  gradu- 
ate as  he  boarded  the  train  to  Indiana.  Pa.  In  19.^3.  when 
S.  Trevor  Hadley  walked  onto  the  Indiana  State  Teachers 
College  campus  and  plunked  down  his  precious  $18 
semester  contingent  fee  [tuition],  he  certainly  had  no 
way  of  knowing  how  many  years  he  would  devote  to  the 
institution.  Who  would  have  imagined  that  the  young 
man  riding  the  B&O  "Hoodlebug"  from  Puaxsutawney 
would  have  such  a  tremendous  impact  on  the  future  of 
w  hat  was  then  Indiana  State  Teachers  College? 

Hadley's  first  position  after  college  was  teaching  at 
Hampton  High  School,  north  of  Pittsburgh.  It  was  there 
that  he  met  his  future  wife,  Olive,  and  taught  until  he 
jomed  the  Air  Force  to  serve  in  World  War  II  as  a  psy- 
chological research  assistant.  Not  long  after  his  return  to 
Hampton  High  to  serve  as  principal.  Joseph  Uhler.  pres- 
ident of  ISTC.  offered  him  the  first  of  many  positions  he 
would  hold  at  the  university. 

"I  wore  many  hats  at  ISTC,"  Hadley  recalled  with  a 
fond  smile.  "I  taught  psychology,  became  director  of  the 
Psychology  Clinic,  served  as  the  first  dean  of  students  in 
1952,  then  served  as  the  vice  president  of  Student  Affairs. 
The  same  job,  just  different  titles." 

Hadley  remembers  a  college  much  different  from 
today's  university.  "When  I  started  at  ISTC.  there  were 
approximately  nine  hundred  students.  Twelve  of  those 
students  were  men.  It  was  a  time  when  the  G.I.s  were 
returning  from  the  war,  so  the  enrollment  started  to  bal- 
ance very  quickly." 


It  also  was  a  time  of  very  strict  mies.  The  women  were 
required  to  wear  gloves  and  hats.  Cuifew  was  at  10  p.m., 
but  all  women  had  to  be  in  their  rooms  by  7  p.m.  No  one 
could  smoke  on  the  main  walk  in  front  of  Sutton  Hall. 

"One  of  my  fondest  memories  of  the  institution,"  said 
Hadley,  "is  the  tremendous  impact  Dr.  Guy  Pratt  Davis 
had  on  me.  He  was  an  outstanding  professor!  But  then, 
the  whole  college  staff  was  made  up  of  extremely  capa- 
ble people — and  most  were  making  $5,000  a  year." 

"The  one  most  important  factor  about  lUP  that  stands 
out  from  my  early  years  and  remains  true  today  is  that 
one  can  obtain  a  solid,  respectable  education  here.  My 
best  advice  to  students  is  that  they  must  apply  them- 
selves. You  have  to  want  to  get  an  education  to  benefit 
from  the  offerings  at  lUP." 

Throughout  his  career,  Hadley  placed  a  priority  on 
advancing  educational  opportunities.  In  1962,  he  served 
as  an  educational  consultant  to  the  Department  of  Public 
Instruction  in  the  West  .M'rican  nation  of  Liberia. 

"My  summer  in  .Africa  was  a  most  fascinating  experi- 
ence. 1  participated  in  a  Ford  Foundation  project  which 
attempted  to  improve  the  public  schools  in  Liberia.  Our 
job  was  to  instruct  the  teachers  there.  I  had  fifty  individ- 
uals in  my  workshop. 

"Although  many  people  would  think  of  this  as  a  ful- 
filling project,  1  left  the  country  feeling  as  though  it  was 
a  hopeless  process.  The  schools  operated  without  paper, 
without  pencils.  Tliey  would  use  sticks  to  write  in  the  dirt. 
I  was  there  during  the  rain>-  season,  and  I  would  see  peo- 
ple walk  for  miles  in  the  pouring  rain  to  come  to  school. 
We  take  a  great  deal  for  granted  in  the  United  States." 

Although  he  retired  in  1978  after  thirty-one  years  of 
service.  Hadley  remains  very  involved  with  the  univer-

Iladley,  right,  with  his  friend 
and  mentor  Guy  Pratt  Davis  in 
the  Wilson  Hall  basement  in  the 
late  forties 


sily.  He  served  as  president  of  the  lUP  Alumni  Associa- 
tion and  most  recently  was  the  alumni  chairperson  for 
the  Campaign  for  Indiana  University  of  Pennsylvania 
and  a  member  of  the  search  committee  to  choose  a  new 
vice  president  for  Student  Affairs. 

"I  like  to  be  of  assistance  to  the  university,  wherever 
am  needed."  Hadley  said.  ""After  so  many  years  you 
gain  a  natural  allegiance.  The  university  and  community 
have  treated  me  well,  and  there  are  so  many  good  peo- 
ple to  work  with." 

In  addition  to  his  work  with  the  university,  Hadley  is 
especially  proud  of  the  family  that  he  and  Olive  raised 
in  Indiana  and  of  the  educational  values  they  instilled.  Of 
their  five  children,  the  three  oldest  sons  graduated  from 
lUP:  Olive  Hadley  earned  her  master's  degree  at  lUP  in 
1967.  Trevor  "68.  William  "70.  and  Thomas  '74  each 
have  doctoral  degrees  and  are  follow  ing  in  their  father's 
footsteps  in  higher  education.  A  fourth  son.  Charles,  is  a 
practicing  lawyer,  and  the  Hadleys"  only  daughter, 
Elaine,  earned  her  Ph.D.  from  Johns  Hopkins  University. 

It  is  hard  to  imagine  that  Hadley  has  time  for  lUP  in 
his  life,  as  retirement  has  meant  anything  but  rest  and 
relaxation.  During  his  numerous  overseas  travels, 
Hadley  has  taught  at  the  University  of  Salzburg  in  Aus- 
tria and  led  tour  groups  to  Europe. 

He  also  continues  to  write  the  Retired  Faculty  Spot- 
light segment  of  lUP  Mai^azme  as  well  as  articles  for 
various  publications.  His  most  recent  literary  accom- 
plishment is  the  publication  of  his  first  book,  Otily  in 
Pittshiiri^h.  a  historical  account  of  people  and  places. 
.Available  in  the  Pittsburgh  and  Indiana  areas,  the  book 
is  published  by  Educational  Publishing  Resources  of 
Cincinnati.

He  taught  thou- 
sands of  students 

in  psychology,  education,  public  school  administra- 
tion, student  personnel  administration,  and  compara- 
tive education,  but,  more  than  that,  he  was  responsible 
for  such  student  programs  as  residence  hall  manage- 
ment and  programming,  financial  aid  and  student 
employment,  admissions,  career  .services,  and  counsel- 
ing and  clinical  services. 

He  became  actively  involved  with  Student  Govern- 
ment, the  Student  Cooperative  Association,  and  the  Stu- 
dent Union.  Hadley  essentially  guided  the  development 
of  the  Student  Affairs  area  to  what  it  is  today.  ""I  trea- 
sure the  students  more  than  anything,"  he  said.  ""The 
greatest  honor  for  me  was  the  naming  of  the  S.  Trevor 
Hadley  Student  Union  (HUB)." 

But  perhaps  the  greatest  honor  has  been  the  univer- 
sity's— to  have  had  Trevor  Hadley  in  its  midst.    "'^

Big  Year 


June  M).  the  end  ot  the 
^)9,V94  fiscal  year,  was 
an  important  date  in  lUP 
history.  The  university  reported 
its  highest  gift  income  ever 
raised  in  a  year's  time  and  sur- 
passed the  half-way  point  of  the 
goal  of  the  Campaign  for  Indiana 
University  of  Pennsylvania. 

Total  one-year  gift  income 
reached  an  all-time  high  of 
$5,733,-^91  committed  by  alumni. 
parents,  employees,  corporations, 
foundations,  and  friends.  The 
fiscal  year's  gift  income  more 
than  tripled  w  hat  was  raised  in 
the  preceding  fiscal  year.  The 
university  received  a  total  of 
20.140  gifts  and  pledges:  478  of 
those  were  for  a  S 1 .000  or  more. 
In  addition,  the  campaign  has 
reached  SI 3.622.04 1  in  commit- 
ments toward  its  $20-million 
goal.  The  campaign  will  end 
December  31.  199.^. 


Of  notable  significance  is  the 
alumni  participation  rate  of  fort\  - 
three  percent,  which  is  more  than 
double  the  national  a\  erage  rate 
of  participation,  according  to  the 
Council  for  Aid  to  Education. 

The  Phone/Mail  program, 
staffed  by  student  callers, 
solicited  alumni,  parents,  and 
members  of  the  university  faniiU 
and  raised  $2,560,405  through 
15,794  pledges,  a  figure  well 
above  the  $2.3  million  goal. 
Over  a  nine-month  period,  two 
students  obtained  pledges  of 
$100,000  each. 

Two  landmark  commitments — 
$3.26  million  from  Robert  Cook 
'64  and  $2  million  from  the 
Eberly  Family  Trust — helped  to 
complete  the  year's  success. 

"Anytime  you  take  on  a  pro- 
ject of  this  magnitude,  there  is 
considerable  skepticism."  said 
Larry  Panaia.  president  of  the 
Foundation  for  lUP  Board  of 
Directors.  "Wlien  you  have  the 
success  we've  experienced,  it 
must  be  attributed  to  the  hard 
work  and  organizational  abilities 
of  all  involved." 

Thomas  Zaueha  and  James 
Miller,  both  of  Indiana,  are  co- 
chairing  the  Campaign  for  Indi-

Ground  Is 
Broken 


Homecoming  paradegocrs 
caught  a  glimpse  of  the  new 
Eberly  College  of  Business 
building  in  the  fomi  of  a  float. 
The  float,  created  to  commemo- 
rate the  groundbreaking  for  the 
new  facility,  sported  a  building's 
prototype. 

The  groundbreaking  took  place 
the  morning  of  Homecoming 
Saturday  at  the  construction  site 
near  Miller  Stadium.  State,  local, 
and  university  officials  and  friends 
attended  the  event. 

The  building  is  scheduled  for 
completion  in  the  tall  of  1995. 


Safety  in 
Numbers 


A  nationally  distributed  book 
has  ranked  Indiana  as  one 
of  the  safest  college  towns 
in  the  nation. 

Crime  at  College:  The  Student 
Guide  to  Personal  Safety  rates 
each  town  based  on  serious 
crimes  reported  to  the  FBI  by 
each  town.  Indiana  was  ranked 
fifth-safest  in  the  nation  and  first 
in  Pennsylvania.  The  book's 
authors,  Curtis  Ostrander  and 
Joseph  Schwartz,  wrote  the  guide 
for  prospective  students  and  their 
parents  and,  as  a  local  newspaper 


reported,  "Students  live,  work, 
and  shop  off  campus.  It  is  neces- 
sary to  know  about  the  commu- 
nity surrounding  a  school." 

While  the  perimeter  around 
campus  is  safe,  strides  are  con- 
tinually made  to  keep  the  lUP 
campus  itself  a  secure  place  to 
live  and  study.  Campus  Police 
has  offered  an  escort  service  for 
students  for  several  years,  and 
crime-prevention  literature  is 
annually  printed  and  distributed 
to  students.  Emergency  tele- 
phones have  been  installed  in  the 
last  few  years,  and  a  campus 
crime  watch  internship  program 
has  been  established.  lUP's  latest 
initiative  is  the  mounted  bicycle 
patrol  program. 

After  rigorous  physical  train- 
ing, the  officers  ride  twenty-six- 
speed  Cannondale  Police  Edition 
bikes.  One  bicycle  officer  patrols 
the  campus  on  each  shift. 

According  to  William  Mont- 
gomery, director  of  campus  secu- 
rity, the  bike  patrol  not  only 
makes  the  officers  more  accessi- 
ble to  students  and  other  people 
on  campus,  it  also  allows  officers 
more  access  to  areas  on  campus 
that  cannot  be  reached  by  car.

It  is  wilh  great  pleasure  we 
announce  in  tliis  issue  t>{ IVP 
Magazine  that  the  university  has 
celebrated  a  banner  year  in  fund- 
raising.  Our  success  is  due  largely 
to  the  readers  of  the  magazine — 
families  of  students,  alumni,  and 
friends.  The  funds  raised  « ill  allow 
lUP  to  accomplish  a  number  of 
goals  that  would  not  have  been 
possible  with  state  appropriations 
alone. 

Had  we  not  received 
$5.7  million  in  gift  income  this 
year,  we  would  not  be  able  to  equip 
the  new  Eberly  College  of  Business 
building  properly.  Nor  would  we 
have  been  able  to  establish  the 
Robert  K.  Cook  Honors  College. 
Without  the  participation  of 
alumni,  parents,  and  friends,  there 
would  be  fewer  scholarships  for 
undergraduate  and  graduate  stu- 
dents, and  the  library  would  be 
limited  in  acquiring  materials  that 
assist  students  in  key  subject  areas. 

Without  such  unprecedented 
support,  advanced  technology 
would  by-pass  RIP.  Now,  we  have 


started  work  on  the  fiberoptic  net- 
work that  will  link  the  university 
community  to  the  global  commu- 
nity, and  v\e  can  ensure  current 
and  future  students  will  have 
greater  access  to  both  computer 
facilities  and  a  rich  array  of  infor- 
mation systems. 

Alumni,  in  particular,  should  be 
proud  of  this  achievement.  Forty- 
three  percent  of  II  P"s  alumni  have 
pledged  their  support,  retlecting  a 
figure  well  beyond  the  national 
average  for  public  universities. 
While  raising  these  funds  today  en- 
sures a  future  full  of  promise  for 
alumni  of  tomorrow,  it  also  enables 
us  to  strengthen  lUP's  reputation 
to  the  benefit  of  those  who  already 
have  earned  their  degrees.  Your 
intellectual  capital  increases  as 
IL'P's  reputation  is  enhanced.  On 
behalf  of  the  entire  lUP  family,  I 
thank  you  for  your  confidence  in 
your  university.

Bright  Future 

Programs  from  art  to  anthro- 
pology to  jazz  orchestra  to 
history  of  the  Holocaust 
will  draw  talented  high  school 
students  to  lUP  next  summer, 
increasing  their  interest  in  the 
university  and  in  the  Robert  E. 
Cook  Honors  College. 

The  199.')  Summer  Honors 
Program,  w  ith  thirty  ditTerent 
workshops  planned  in  two  ses- 
sions (July  23-29  and  July  30- 
Augu.st  5),  is  expected  to  bring 
eight  hundred  talented  students 
lo^IUP. 

"The  summer  program  is  an 
excellent  opportunity  to  develop 
relationships  with  academically 
talented  high  school  students  and 


to  expose  them  to  what  lUP  can 
offer."  said  Janet  Goebel.  direc- 
tor of  the  Cook  Honors  College. 
■■Recruitment  is  our  biggest 
challenge." 

In  addition  to  work  on  cam- 
pus, the  program's  students  will 
take  field  trips  to  area  sites  to 
link  fomial  study  with  real-life 
experiences. 

Students  may  choose  to  partic- 
ipate in  one  or  two  sessions  and 
will  live  in  Esch  Hall  (future  site 
of  the  Honors  College  residence). 
Cunent  ILIP  students  will  serve 
as  student  assistants  in  the  resi- 
dence halls,  and  evening  pro- 
grams will  be  offered.  Each 
week-long  session  ends  with 
Saturday  receptions  for  students 
and  their  parents. 

Funding  for  the  Summer  Hon- 
ors Program  is  very  limited.  In  an 
effort  to  keep  the  workshops 
affordable  to  all.  Goebel  is  look- 
ing for  financial  support  in  the 
fomi  of  full  or  partial  scholarships 
($225  per  student,  per  session), 
which  can  be  earmarked  for  spe- 
cific disciplines  or  programs. 

She  is  also  counting  on  alumni 
to  identify  qualified  high  school 
students  in  their  home  areas.  "Cur- 
rent students  and  our  graduates 
are  certainly  our  best  recruiters." 
Goebel  said. 

Although  the  Summer  Honors 
Program  begins  in  1995.  the  first 
class  of  students  for  the  Cook 
Honors  College  will  be  admitted 
in  September.  1996,  with  full 
implementation  of  the  college 
scheduled  for  completion  in  the 
1998-99  academic  year.  Planning 
for  the  college  is  based  on  a  total 
four-year  enrollment  of  three 
hundred  to  four  hundred  students.

Cook  Honors  College  may  be

A  Dream  Blooms  in  Buffalo 


bv  Bob  Fulton 


Bill  Ford  has  been  a  key  member  of  three  Buffalo  Bills 
championship  teams,  yet  he's  never  thrown  a  pass  or  a 
block  or  tackled  an  opponent. 


Tlaiiiei  Bill  Fords 

role  with  the 

Buffalo  Bills  is  not 

merely  to  bind  up 

the  Bills'  uounds 

but  to  pre\ent 

injuries  from 

happening  in  the 

first  place. 


act  is.  he  spends  most  games  on  the 
sidelines.  But  just  like  All-Pros  Jim 
Kelly.  Thumian  Thomas,  and  Dairyl 
Talley.  Ford  has  made  critical  con- 
tributions to  Buffalo's  soaring  suc- 
cess in  the  '90s.  How?  By  helping  to 
keep  those  players  and  their  team- 
mates healthy. 
The  1979  lUP  grad.  now  in  his  fourth  season  as  an 
assistant  trainer  with  the  Bills,  is  proof  that  dreams  do 
come  true.  A  position  with  an  NFL  team  had  been  a 
goal  since  his  college  days. 

"A  lot  of  people  who  knew  me  back  then  have  men- 
tioned to  me  that  that's  what  I'd  always  wanted  to  do." 
said  Ford,  thirty-seven.  "But  it's  one  of  those  things  you 
say  not  knowing  what  it  involves." 

Ford's  NFL  dream  took  shape  at  lUP.  where  he  en- 
rolled as  a  health  and  physical  education  major  follow- 
Hig  graduation  from  McKeesport  High  School.  He 
became  interested  in  training  through  his  friendship 
with  fellow  student  Randy  Kegerreis.  now  a  physical 
therapist  in  Indianapolis. 

"He  was  probably  the  one  that  piqued  my  interest." 
said  Ford.  "I  always  wondered  what  he  did  after  classes 
were  over  for  the  day.  He  was  always  talking  about 
going  down  to  the  training  room  to  work.  I  said.  "How 
do  you  get  involved  with  that'?'  " 

Kegerreis  suggested  he  speak  with  head  trainer  Vic 
Liscinsky.  That  led  to  a  position  with  lUP's  training  staff 
and  Ford's  first  halting  steps  toward  an  NFL  career.

"Things  didn't  Tail  Into  place  immediately,  but  there 
were  enough  things  there  that  had  me  interested  that  I 
wanted  to  learn  more,"  he  said.  "So  I  stuck  with  it." 

r-(ird  worked  with  a  number  of  outstanding  athletes 
during  his  three  years  as  a  student  tramer,  most  notably 
,llni  Haslett.  an  All-America  linebacker  on  the  football 
team.  Haslett  would  join  the  Bills  in  107').  in  effect  blaz- 
ing a  trail  for  Ford  to  follow . 

"When  I  first  came  up  here  for  m\  niter\iew.  lhe\ 
asked  me  if  I  knew  him."  he  said. 

Following  graduation  from  lUP.  Ford  earned  a  mas- 
ter's degree  at  Eastern  Illinois,  worked  as  a  trainer  at 
Glenville  State  (W.Va.).  West  Virginia,  and  Penn  State, 
spent  two  summers  as  a  training  aide  with  the  Detroit 
Lions,  and  served  as  an  assistant  trainer  at  the  LInited 


What  sets  buffalo  apart 
from  most  of  the 
league's  franchises  is 
the  weather.  which  is 
notoriously  nasty  late 
in  the  season.  come  play- 
off time.  polar 
conditions  can  prevail. 


States  Olympic  Training  Center  in  Colorado  Springs. 

When  a  position  in  Buffalo  opened  up  in  1991.  Ford 
pounced  on  the  opportunity.  The  Bills,  fresh  off  their 
first  Super  Bowl  appearance,  were  obviously  a  franchise 
on  the  rise.  Ford  wanted  to  play  a  part  in  Buffalo's 
promising  future. 

"That  was  the  motivation,  actually,  to  make  the  move." 
he  said.  "I  really  loved  Colorado.  It  was  a  tough  deci- 
sion to  make.  But  when  you  saw  the  potential  that  the 
team  had — I  mean,  they  had  the  potential  to  make  it  to 
the  Super  Bowl  again.  So  that  weighed  pretty  heavily  in 
iny  decision  to  leave." 

The  Bills  have  added  three  more  AFC  titles  since 
Ford  arrived.  Alas,  their  unprecedented  feat  of  capturing 
four  consecutive  conference  championships  has  been 
overshadowed  by  an  0-4  record  in  the  Super  Bowl.  Ford, 
nevertheless,  has  thrilled  in  the  experience. 

"It's  the  ultimate  as  far  as  .sporting  activities."  he  said. 
"You  feel  elation,  since  only  two  of  twenty-eight  teams 
make  it  that  far.  It's  like  the  culmination  of  everyone 
working  hard  all  through  the  year." 

And  make  no  mistake,  trainers  do  work  hard.  Their 
responsibilities  are  as  numerous  as  Liz  Taylor's  wedding 
photos.  The  casual  fan  might  notice  a  trainer  tending  to 
an  injured  player  on  the  field  or  along  the  sidelines  dur- 


ing a  game,  but  the  three  hours  every  Sunday  between 
kickoff  and  final  gun  are  analogous  to  the  tip  of  an  ice- 
berg, constituting  but  a  fraction  of  the  whole. 

"The  biggest  thing  that  gets  overlooked  in  our  job  is 
prevention,"  said  Ford.  "That  can  go  into  a  wide  spec- 
trum of  areas." 

Such  as  ensuring  the  players  adhere  to  a  nutritious 
diet  and  drink  plenty  of  fluids,  an  especially  important 
factor  during  training  camp  when  temperatures  heat  up 
like  Bobby  Knight's  temper.  Trainers  also  monitor  play- 
ers" rehab  progress,  provide  treatments,  and  tape  ankles 
before  workouts  and  games.  The  Bills  go  through  about 
seven  hundred  cases  of  tape  a  season. 

Ford  will  typically  wrap  twelve  to  fifteen  players 
before  games,  exchanging  quips  or  gossip  all  the  while. 
He  likens  his  role  to  that  of  a  garrulous  barber. 

"I  look  at  how  our  training  room  is  set  up.  and  it's  al- 
most like  a  barber  shop — a  good  old  neighborhood  bar- 
ber shop,  where  you  have  regulars  who  come  through 
whether  they  need  a  haircut  or  not."  Ford  said.  "There's 
always  a  lot  of  bantering  going  on.  a  lot  of  talking,  a  lot 
of  joke  telling.  That's  pretty  much  what  your  training 
room  ends  up  being.  When  your  taping  session  is  going 
on,  everybody's  coming  in.  waiting  in  line,  waiting  to 
get  taped,  and  the  trainers  are  talking  while  we're  doing 
the  work.  We're  the  barbers." 

A  similar  scene  is  probably  played  out  in  the  training 
rooms  of  all  twenty-eight  NFL  teams.  But  what  sets 
Buffalo  apart  from  most  of  the  league's  franchises  is  the 
weather,  which  is  notoriously  nasty  late  in  the  season. 
Come  playoff  time,  polar  conditions  can  prevail.  When 
the  Los  Angeles  Raiders  visited  last  January  15  in  an 
AFC  semifinal  showdown,  the  wind-chill  reading  at 
Rich  Stadium  plunged  to  32  degrees  below  zero.  Such 
arctic  assaults  give  the  Bills'  training  staff  something 
else  to  worry  about. 

"The  biggest  thing  we've  been  trying  to  impress  upon 
the  players  is  the  type  of  things  they  layer  with."  Ford 
explained.  "Obviously,  you  can  only  layer  so  much 
when  you  have  to  be  functional.  The  biggest  thing  is  to 
layer  properly.  We  use  a  lot  of  polypropylene  next  to 
the  skin  and  go  from  there.  Which,  for  some  guys, 
seems  to  be  enough.  But  if  you're  just  standing  around, 
it's  not  good  enough." 

Even  on  a  summer  afternoon,  basking  in  sunshine  on 
the  porch  of  his  Blasdell.  N.Y.,  home.  Ford  shuddered  at 
the  thought  of  Buffalo's  legendary  cold.  He  knows  first- 
hand that  Rich  Stadium  can  take  on  the  feel  of  an  out- 
door meat  locker  during  the  playoffs,  when  bitter  gusts 
swoop  in  off  nearby  Lake  Erie  and  snow  falls  in  stag- 
gering amounts. 

Not  that  Ford  minds.  He  has  a  wami  spot  in  his  heart 
for  Buffalo,  for  it's  the  place  where  a  dream  that  took 
root  at  lUP  came  to  full  bloom.    "^

came  off  the  bench — as  "a

High  Hopes 


by  Bob  Fulton 


If  Kurt  Kanaskie,  like 
some  modern-day  al- 
chemist, could  transform 
optimism  into  gold,  Brink's 
trucks  would  be  loading 
around  the  clock  at  Memo- 
rial Field  House  these  days. 

It's  not  so  much  that 
Kanaskie's  lUP  basketball 
team  is  coming  off  the  vvin- 
ningest  season  in  school 
history  that  has  fans 
buzzing  in  anticipation.  It's 
that  eight  of  the  top  nine 
players  return  from  that 
record-setting  27-3  squad, 
fueling  hopes  for  another 
trip  to  the  NCAA  Division 
II  tournament  and  perhaps 
even  a  run  at  the  national 
championship. 

Why,  if  there  were  truly 
wealth  in  optimism,  lUP's 
riches  would  rival  Donald 
Trump's. 

"We're  excited  about  the 
team  we  have  back,"  said 
Kanaskie,  who  can  capture 
his  hundredth  victory  as 
coach  of  the  Indians  w  hen 
lUP  opens  its  schedule 
November  19  against  Shep- 
herd College  (W.Va.).  "We 
have  everyone  back  from 
the  team  that  ended  the 
season." 

Only  point  guard  Phil 
Crump,  who  missed  most 
of  the  postseason  with  a 
broken  foot,  was  lost  to 
graduation.  Otherwise,  the 
cast  that  carried  lUP  to  the 
NCAA's  Elite  Eight  last 
March  returns  intact. 

Kanaskie  welcomes  back 
all  five  of  the  players  who 
started  in  the  season  finale, 
a  quarterfinal  loss  to  even- 
tual national  champion  Cal 
State  Bakersfield:  6-4 
junior  forward  Derrick 
Freeman,  last  year's  team 


leader  in  scoring  (I6.6t, 
rebounds  (7.7),  blocked 
shots  (31 1,  and  steals  (64), 
despite  an  achy  knee  that 
limited  his  effectiveness  and 
required  offseason  surgery; 
6-5  senior  guard-forward 
Yancey  Taylor,  who  led  lUP 
in  assists  (5.0),  finished  sec- 
ond in  scoring  (16.5),  and 
earned  Pennsylvania  Con- 
ference Western  Division 
Player  of  the  Year  honors; 
6-6  junior  center  Robert 
Misenko,  who  scored  at  a 
12.5  clip;  6-3  junior  guard 
Jason  Bullock  (11.4  points 
per  game),  who  led  the  Indi- 
ans in  three-point  field 
goals  (79);  and  senior  guard 
Russell  Kelley  (5.5),  who 
stepped  in  at  the  point  after 
Crump  was  sidelined. 

With  senior  guards  Troy 
Jackson  and  Ben  Williams 
and  junior  forward  Josh 
Shoop  returning — not  to 
mention  sophomore  guard 
Terry  O'Shea,  who  sat  out 
last  year  with  back  prob- 
lems— it's  easy  to  see  why 
even  confirmed  pessimists 
are  upbeat  about  lUP's 
prospects.  But  amidst  all  the 
talk  of  another  blockbuster 
season,  Kanaskie  sounds  a 
cautionary  note:  having 
essentially  the  same  person- 
nel as  last  season  won't 
necessarily  guarantee  the 
same  success.  Many  an  out- 
standing team  has  crum- 
bled under  the  weight  of 
complacency. 

"We  had  a  terrific  work 
ethic  last  year,"  said 
Kanaskie.  "But  sometimes 
when  you  have  a  lot  of  peo- 
ple returning,  players  don't 
work  as  hard,  because  they 
think  they  know  everything 
and  they  think  they're  going 
to  have  more  talent  than  the 
opposition.  I  guess  that's 
human  nature  when  you 


have  success." 

Team  chemistry — that 
intangible  which  enables  a 
collection  of  individuals  to 
function  efficiently  as  a 
unit — is  another  potential 
area  of  concern. 

"That's  so  important  in 
basketball,"  Kanaskie  said. 
"Last  year,  we  had  terrific 
team  chemistry." 

And  this  year?  Crump, 
remember,  isn't  around  to 
provide  leadership.  What's 
more,  three  newcomers — 
freshmen  Mark  Faulx  and 
Chuck  Karl  and  University 
of  Colorado  transfer  Kirk 
Williams — must  blend  in 
with  the  holdovers. 

That  lends  an  element  of 
mystery  to  an  otherwise 
known  quantity:  a  predomi- 
nantly veteran  team.  But  if 
the  Indians  iron  out  some 
wrinkles,  they  could  very 
well  deliver  a  suitable 
encore  to  their  spectacular 
performance  of  a  season 
ago,  when  lUP  became  a 
player  on  the  national  stage. 

"Last  year,  our  goal  was 
just  to  make  the  NCAA 
tournament,"  said  Kanaskie. 
"I  think  this  year  we'd  be 
disappointed  if  we  didn't 
get  back  to  the  Elite  Eight." 

The  Indians  are  certainly 
capable  of  authoring 
another  storybook  season, 
for  Kurt  Kanaskie — just 
like  Donald  Trump — is 
surrounded  by  riches. 

There's  a  wealth  of 
talent  and  experience  at 
lUP.  And  a  wealth  of  opti- 
mism to  match.
