Dedica  tion 


There  will  always  be  certain  people  who  standout  and 
make  an  impact  on  others.  These  people  are  few  and  far 
between  and  deserve  the  right  and  privilege  to  be  remem- 
bered by  those  with  whom  they  have  been  associated.  Surely 
Nancy  Garrabrants  is  included  in  this  group.  This  fiery  moti- 
vater  and  all  around  friend  has  put  new  life  into  the  Floricul- 
ture program  and  Stockbridge  itself. 

She  has  been  instrumental  in  recruiting  with  Debbie  Boyce, 
(alumnus  and  new  recruiter),  strengthening  ties  with  our 
Alumni,  and  promoting  Stockbridge  among  the  University 
and  prospective  students.  Nancy  is  well  thought  of  and  re- 
spected by  all,  from  the  alumni  to  the  front  office  and  to  the 
students  of  this  school. 

She  is  a  person  with  both  knowledge  and  personality.  A 
person  whom  all  can  go  to  for  guidance  and  advice  and  come 
out  with  a  true  friend  and  a  lasting  bond.  Nancy,  we  the 
Stockbridge  Class  of  1986  are  proud  and  honored  to  have  you 
among  us  and  proudly  dedicate  this  yearbook  to  you.  We  hope 
you  will  be  here  for  many  years  to  come,  to  give  future  stu- 
dents the  benefit  of  your  interest  in  the  Stockbridge  School. 
Once  again  we  thank  you  for  your  friendship,  teaching  and 
your  knowledge.

Stockbridge  School  Of 

Agriculture  And 

Assistant 

Dean,  College  Of  Food 

And  Natural 

Resourses 


1984-1986!!  These  have  been  challenging,  exciting,  different 
and  rewarding  years  for  you,  me  and  the  school.  The  Class  of '86 
was  the  smallest  class  to  enter  Stockbridge  since  the  middle 
1950's.  Because  you  were  a  small  class,  you  created  lots  of 
concern  and  interest.  The  administrators  of  our  college  and  the 
University  have  expressed  much  concern  about  our  declining 
enrollment.  Not  much  really  happened  though  until  the  Stock- 
bridge  Alumni  Directors  along  with  an  active  promotional  com- 
mittee, (made  up  of  many  of  you,  the  office  staff  and  interested 
faculty),  got  together  to  promote  Stockbridge  and  its  programs. 

Excellent  promotional  booths  were  set  up  and  manned  at  the 
Eastern  States  Exposition  and  at  the  Worcester  Centrum.  The 
Stockbridge  Alumni  Association  provided  funds  to  hire  a  half- 
time  recruiter,  (a  Stockbridge  grad!),  to  work  exclusively  to 
promote  and  recruit  for  Stockbridge.  Along  with  these  exciting 
new  promotional  functions,  many  of  you  students  went  back  to 
your  high  schools  to  tell  our  story.  With  everyone  working  to- 
gether we  should  be  able  to  offer  more  young  people  the  bene- 
fits of  a  Stockbridge  education. 

This  message  in  your  yearbook  allows  me  to  thank  all  of  you 
who  have  helped  in  this  important  endeavor  and  to  wish  each 
and  everyone  of  you  continued  good  health  and  happiness  and 
success  in  your  career!  Oh  yes,  welcome  to  a  great  Alumni  Asso- 
ciation!

Stockbridge  Secretaries 

Almost  every  school  has  great  administrators  that  help  to 
make  it  into  a  successful  school.  But  who  is  it  that  helps  to  make 
the  administrators  look  good?  Their  secretaries  do,  and  great 
secretaries  make  for  outstanding  institutions. 

Here  at  Stockbridge  we  are  extremely  fortunate  to  have  the 
best  of  the  best  for  secretaries,  Karen  Cerow  and  Elizabeth 
Wiernasz.  Karen  and  Liz  are  the  two  remarkable  people  who 
keep  the  Stockbridge  School  constantly  moving  forward,  with 
the  greatest  of  efficiency. 

As  you  know  by  now,  they  are  not  just  your  every  day  secre- 
taries. Along  with  all  the  great  help  they  offer  to  all  of  us,  Karen 
and  Liz  add  that  special  family  atmosphere  that  makes  Stock- 
bridge  the  special  school  that  it  is. 

Karen  and  Liz,  we  the  Class  of  1986,  thank  you  for  your  time, 
guidance,  friendship  and  endless  patience  you  have  given  to  us 
over  the  past  two  years.  We  will  never  be  able  to  repay  all  that 
you  have  done  for  us.  Once  again,  thank  you!

Professor  Hamilton 


Easily  recognized  around  campus  by  his  students, 
with  his  beret  and  turtleneck  shirt,  is  Professor  Thom- 
as S.  Hamilton  Jr.  Professor  Hamilton  joined  the 
Stockbridge  faculty  as  an  instructor  in  Landscape  Ar- 
chitecture in  1953  with  a  B.F.A. 

Future  Stockbridge  and  University  students  will  not 
have  the  pleasure  of  his  famous  8:00  am  slide  lectures; 
for  Professor  Hamilton  has  elected  to  retire  at  the  end 
of  the  Spring  1986  semester. 

From  those  of  us  who  have  had  the  opportunity  and 
honor  to  have  been  aquainted  with  such  a  fine  man,  we 
wish  you  the  best  of  health  and  happiness  in  your  re- 
tirement years.  We  hope  that  you  will  remember  fond- 
ly your  years  here  at  Stockbridge.  Professor  Hamilton, 
we  also  hope  that  you  will  not  forget  us,  for  we  shall 
never  forget  what  you  have  taught  us.  Enjoy  your  re- 
tirement! We  will  surely  miss  you!!! 
The  Class  of  1986 


History 


Through  these  doors  we  pass 
always  looking  back  in  fondness; 
reaching  to  the  future  with  anticipation, 
for  our  education  yet  to  come. 

Some  up  front  and  some  behind, 
for  a  common  goal  we've  strived. 
Like  others  before  and  yet  to  come. 
Our  Body,  Heart  and  Soul.

Once  again,  the  Stosag  staff 
would  like  to  express  its 
sincere  appreciation  to 
Professor  Edward  Pira  for 
all  of  his  support  and  extra 
effort.  A  man  of  kindness, 
patience,  and  understanding, 
he  has  for  many  years  now 
kept  a  watchful  eye  over  the 
progress  of  each  class's 
yearbook,  as  well  as  giving  a 
great  quantity  of  his  free 
time  to  our  staff,  to  social 
functions  and  to  Stockbridge 
students  in  general.  Prof, 
Pira,  your  dedication  to 
Stockbridge  has  not  gone 
unnoticed!

STOCKBRIDGE  SCHOOL  OF  AGRICULTURE 


James  Watson 


P.A.C. 


Will  Rogers 


Alpha  Tau  Gamma 


Alpha  Tau  Gamma  is  the  social  fraternity  of  the 
Stockbridge  School  of  Agriculture.  The  fraternity  is 
composed  of  brothers  with  varied  backgrounds.  This 
offers  a  new  dimention  to  the  fraternity,  and 
through  pledging,  we  learn  to  work  as  one  for  the 
benefit  of  ourselves  and  the  house. 

The  house  offers  to  all  Stockbridge  men  a  unique 
and  progressive  lifestyle.  This  experience  is  one  that 
will  be  beneficial  to  every  brother  throughout  his 
life.  Our  bonds  extend  past  college,  and  our 
friendships  last  a  lifetime. 

This  year  thirteen  men  joined  the  active  chapter 
and  became  a  part  of  our  350  member  organization. 
All  the  ATG  brothers  have  a  lot  in  common.  They 
have  pledged,  lived  and  will  graduate  from  this  very 
educational  experience. 

The  men  of  ATG  are  active  with  their  house  and 
Stockbridge,  and  are  always  striving  to  be  the  best 
in  their  chosen  profession.  This  reflects  their  pride 
in  Stockbridge  and  for  Alpha  Tau  Gamma. 

Brothers:  Steve  Crowe,  Mark  Skillin,  Kevin 
Chatigny,  Scott  Firth,  Mark  Bruno,  Chad  Littlefield, 
Gordon  Smith,  Mark  Copponi,  Ralph  Morganelli,

STOCKBRIDGE  ALMA  MATER 

'Neath  the  elms  of  dear  old  Amherst 
Stands  our  college  fair, 
Hail  to  thee  our  Alma  Mater 
Stockbridge  Students  go  there. 
Working  ever,  falter  never. 
Onward  to  our  goal. 
Give  you  best  to  dear  old  Stockbridge, 
Body,  heart,  and  soul. 

Tho'  the  hours  are  quickly  passing 

And  we  soon  must  part, 

Thy  great  halls  will  not  be  lonely 

They  contain  our  hearts. 

In  the  future  thought  w^ill  wander 

Back,  and  we  will  see 

Scenes  we  knew  at  dear  old  Stockbridge; 

Always  dear  they'll  be. 


From  The  Editor 


New  friends,  good  times,  and  a  practical  education 
are  what  I  have  gained  during  my  two  years  at  Stock- 
bridge.  Hopefully  your  two  years  have  been  as 
rewarding  and  as  gratifying.  The  staff  has  worked 
hard  to  capture  your  memories  of  this  past  year.  I 
hope  that  you'll  want  to  keep  this  copy  near  at  hand  to 
recapture  special  times  or  to  remember  days  gone  by. 
Now  that  you've  finished  looking  through  STOSAG 
86,  it's  time  to  roll  the  credits. 

This  yearbook  was  made  possible  by:  your  student 
activity  fee;  Jostens  Publishing;  Studio  One  Photog- 
raphers; everyone  mentioned  on  pages  44  &  45  (also 
Glenda  Frontiera);  Kris,  Jim  W.,  and  Linda  you  don't 
know  how  much  I've  appreciated  your  extra  effort! 
Special  thanks  go  to  Roberta  Zidik  (Dept.  of  Food  En. 
Sec.)  and,  for  the  photo  of  Bill  Collins  on  pg.  32,  to 
Collegian  Photographer  Scott  Maguire.  Oh  yeah,  one 
more  thing,  Mark,  Mike  and  "Z",  when  a  good  looking 
girl  walks  by,  remember  to  tell  her  my  favorite  say- 
ing!
