PROLOGUE 


In  the  Eye  of  a  Tiger  linger  flashes  of  the  past  year.  How  you  see  yourself  as  a  tiger  is  up  to  you.  Perhaps,  after 
turning  the  pages  of  this  book,  you  will  know.  The  look  is  of  you,  the  administration,  the  faculty,  staff,  and  most  of 
all,  the  students. 

This  year's  TIGER  staff  presents  a  broad  overview  of  what's  happening  around  the  College  by  the  Sea  in  the 
unlimited  phases  of  collegiate  life.  The  staff  has  captured  the  glances  of  the  rewarding  and  significant  events  that 
took  place  on  campus. 

Located  in  one  of  the  most  scenic  cities  of  the  South,  Savannah  State  College,  in  its  98th  year  of  pride,  progress 
and  excellence,  has  provided  many  students  with  the  opportunity  to  take  a  new  prospect  of  life  with  choice  and 
fulfillment. 

Where  there  are  people,  there  are  events  that  need  to  be  recorded.  This  is  what  the  staff  of  the  1988  TIGER  has 
put  forth  every  effort  to  do.  The  TIGER  is  a  reminder  of  the  enthusiasm,  the  feeling  of  nurture  and  growth,  and 
the  wealth  of  excitement  that  encompass  a  college  campus. 

This  year's  TIGER,  in  our  own  eyes,  is  a  reflection  of  the  character,  scholarship,  activities,  and  leadership 
demonstrated  by  the  students  at  the  College. 

Each  student  is  a  part  of  this  history  of  facts  and  pictures.  As  you  turn  the  pages  and  see  yourself  in  the  eye  of  a  ti- 
ger, remember  that  the  past  is  a  prologue  of  the  future.

OFFICE  OF 

THE  PRESIDENT 


Dear  Students: 

As  your  venerable  alma  mater  approaches  the  eve  of  her  100th  birthday, 
surely  she  proudly  counts  you  among  her  progeny.  Your  devotion, 
contributions,  and  accomplishments  reflected  in  entries  in  Tiger  1989,  are 
an  outstanding  tribute  to  her.  Indeed,  we  who  are  the  Savannah  State  College 
community  of  administrators,  faculty,  staff,  students  and  alumni  are  fortunate 
to  share  these  historic  times  which  present  to  us  crucial  opportunities  to 
foster  the  sturdy  advance  of  the  College  into  the  twenty-first  century. 

I  applaud  the  Tiger  staff  for  this  laudable  yearbook.  Also,  1  congratulate 
the  students  who  will  graduate  this  year.  And  to  each  and  everyone  of  you, 
I  extend  best  wishes  for  continued  success  in  pursuing  your  educational  and 
career  goals. 

Sincerely  yours,

Mentors  Program 

Keith  B.  Wilson,  Project  Director  for  the

program  is  to  help  retain  students  with  high 
attrition  variables,  such  as  students  who  are 
single  parents,  students  in  two  or  more  re- 
medial courses,  athletes  or  students  remedi- 
ating for  the  Regents."  The  Mentors  Pro- 
gram sponsors  two  presentations  each  quar- 
ter. One  presentation  is  held  off  campus  to 
encourage  cultural  exposure  for  the  stu- 
dent. The  aim  is  for  the  student  and  the

the  student  with  a  support  system.

honesty  and  service  as  well  as  leadership.  It  re- 
wards meritorious  achievement  and  encourages

"YOU  CAN  ALWAYS  TELL  A 
SAVANNAH  STATE  STUDENT" 


Learning  Knowledge 


Hailing  from  places  such  as  Atlanta,  Georgia,  Miami,  Florida,  Chicago,  Illinois, 
Brooklyn,  New  York,  St.  Thomas,  Virgin  Islands,  and  Bahamas,  each  student  at 
SSC  has  a  unique  characteristic.  With  the  continuous  expansion  of  our  resources, 
this  Institution  thrives  on  academic  excellence.  Every  student  who  has  taken  College 
Algebra  knows  that  it  is  no  piece  of  cake.  Also,  every  student  knows  he  will  sit  in 
front  a  computer  during  his  college  education.  Because  the  students  are  eager  to 
learn  all  there  is  to  know,  sometimes  the  library  is  unsurprisingly  full. 


30     Student  Life 


Showing  Off  Fashions 


It's  understood  that  fashion  is  very  important  to  students 
here.  The  females  wear  long  skirts  and  soft  sweaters,  while 
the  males  prefer  baggy  to  cropped  pants  with  colorful  printed 
shirts.  Both  sexes  wear  turtle  necks,  acid-wash  jeans,  and  the 
biker  shorts. 


Student  Life     31 


Whether  good  or  bad,  the  College  has  a  reputation  for  its  food 
services.  At  breakfast,  lunch,  or  dinner,  everyone  enjoys  a  nutrious 
meal.  Good  times  are  shared  in  the  dining  hall,  but  sometimes 
students  have  a  craving  for  foods  served  at  the  Blue  Note,  Campus 
Corner,  Subway,  Burger  King,  or  even  Ryan's  Steakhouse.  To 
make  sure  they  don't  get  too  fat,  there's  always  aerobics  to  keep 
everyone  in  shape. 


32     Student  Life 


Having  Fun 


After  a  week  of  doing  calculus  homework  or  cramming  for  that  history  test, 
students  are  usually  ready  for  the  weekend.  Things  get  started  on  Thursday 
night  at  Club  220  West.  Then  on  Friday  and  Saturday  nights,  the  Old  Gym 
is  the  party  place.  Music  can  be  heard  for  blocks  as  Randy  T.  mixes  the 
latest  dance  music.  Every  weekend,  the  crowd  gets  more  pumped.  After  the 
parties,  the  guys  try  their  best  to  sweep  the  ladies  off  their  feet  and  to 
hypnotize  them  to  forfeit  the  games  people  play.  Students  also  engage  in 
frequent  games  of  "Spades".

IN  REMEMBRANCE  OF 

Dr.  Michael  K.  Maker 


1940-1988 


Dr.  Maher  was  born  on  December  23, 
1 940  in  Chicago,  Illinois.  He  obtained 
his  Bachelor's  Degree  from  Loras  Col- 
lege in  Deblek,  Iowa,  and  his  Master's 
Degree  and  Doctorate  Degree  in  English 
from  the  University  of  Georgia.  He  be- 
gan teaching  at  the  University  of  Geor- 
gia, but  later  went  on  to  teach  high 
school  in  Augusta,  Georgia.  He  taught  at 
Savannah  State  College  for  1 7  years. 


Dear  Dr.  Maher,  (My  Mentor) 

I  never  thought  my  days  would  be  so  unfulfilled  with  the  disturbance  of  your  death.  Therefore,  I  often  times  find  it  arduous  to  come  to  terms 
with  the  realization  of  your  absence  here  at  our  "College  by  the  Sea.  "After  the  wringing  news  of  your  passing,  I  astonished  myself  with  my  own 
reactions  acknowledging  just  how  much  of  an  integral  role  you  have  played  in  my  life.  Disregarding  the  tears  that  blurred  my  vision,  I  spotted  be- 
yond the  objects,  and  I  hurled  and  scattered  crazily  out  of  distress,  my  several  boxes  of  poems,  essays,  and  short  stories.  There  they  were,  piles  of 
papers  you  graded  and  critiqued,  that  I  embraced.  At  the  time  I  panicked  that  they  were  all  I  had  left  of  you.  "Strong  thesis,"  "firm  analysis," 
"well  done, "  "rushed  conclusion, "  "correct  minor  grammar  errors, "  "vivid  images  in  your  poetry, "  "keep  editing"  penetrated  my  memories  of 
you  as  I  read.  Remember  the  very  first  time  I  invaded  your  office  and  I  said,  "Teach  me?  "  Of  course,  you  recall  that  moment,  because  you,  with  no 
reservations,  said,  "Sure,  as  long  as  you  want  to  learn."  Initially,  I  quirked,  "Oh,  this  guy  must  be  some  Marva  Collins  of  the  teaching  industry 
who  has  no  life  outside  of  chasing  and  grading  homework  assignments."  After  one  "D",  an  office  visit,  and  an  "A"  later,  I  saw  sincerity  in  your 
eyes  and  promise  in  your  heart.  I  knew  my  goal  was  to  learn.  Never  before  had  I  wanted  to  absorb  so  much  from  anyone.  And  I  thank  you. 

So  now  that  you've  given  me  so  much,  you  just  desert  me?  Don't  you  know,  I  wasn't  finished?  I  had  questions  to  last  a  lifetime.  Just  think  of  all 
the  office  time  you  spent  helping  me  to  develop  an  "A  "  essay  in  40  minutes,  critiquing  my  poem,  and  molding  the  building  blocks  to  boost  my  con- 
fidence as  a  promising  writer  with  exceptional  talents.  H  hile  this  may  be  true,  you  never  denied  me  the  truth  of  what  it  takes  —  editing,  more 
editing  and  possibly  hundreds  of  rejections.  So  how  could  you  leave  me?  So  untimely?  Perchance,  knowing  you  as  I  did,  goodbyes  are  just  too  per- 
manent. 

Now  that  you're  gone,  I  frequently  find  myself  lost.  On  several  occasions,  I've  started  a  trip  to  your  office  with  one  of  my  latest  writing  ventures 
with  hopes  that  I'd  find  you  there  at  the  typewriter  with  a  cup  of  coffee  nearby.  The  first  few  times  I  cried.  After  several  trips,  I  accepted  your  being 
gone  (physically),  but  you  are  so  very  alive  (spiritually)  as  Shakespeare  spoke  from  a  poster;  subjects  and  verbs  chattered  with  agreement  from 
the  shelves,  and  maps  took  me  to  all  the  places  we've  traveled  together  during  lectures. 

Yes,  you  never  really  died.  So  I  will  always  be  surrounded  by  your  life  —  be  it  the  red  and  green  comments  on  my  English  papers  or  the  voices  of 
your  former  students  who  have  learned  so  much.  To  my  heart,  your  absence  brought  nothing  but  remorse;  now  I  thank  God  I  was  blessed  enough  to 
know  you,  to  miss,  and  to  celebrate  your  new  life  in  me  and  those  whose  lives  you've  touched  and  are  still  touching. 

Yours  truly, 

Zain  Jacobs

"GIVE  YOU  UP" 

We  didn't  want  to  give  you  up; 
We'll  miss  that  smile  on  your  face. 
But  comforted  are  we  by  this  thought. 
In  Heaven  you  will  take  your  place. 

\Y  e  didn  't  want  to  give  you  up; 
Your  passing  though  doth  make  us  sad. 
But  still  we're  consoled  with  this  thought. 
In  Heaven  you  will  be  glad. 

We  didn't  want  to  give  you  up; 
Yet  we  know  you've  gone  to  rest. 
So  comforted  are  we  by  this  thought; 
To  be  in  Heaven  is  the  best.

University,  the  seed  for  excellence,  scholarship  and  a  devotion  to 
the  advancement  of  humankind  was  planted.  The  seed  that  was 
sown  blossomed  as  Alpha  Kappa  Alpha  Sorority,  the  first  Greek 
letter  organization  formed  for  young  women.  The  sorority  was 
incorporated  on  January  19,  1913.  Alpha  Kappa  Alpha  has 
grown  from  one  undergraduate  chapter  to  international  acclaim 
with  over  80,000  members  worldwide,  such  as  Gladys  Knight 
Coretta  Scott  King,  and  Rosa  Parks.  Gamma  Upsilon  was  es-

.pha  Phi  Alpha  Fraternity,  Incorporated,  was  founded  by  sev- 
en young  men  on  the  predominately  white  campus  of  Cornell 
University  on  December  4,  1906.  Being  the  first  Greek-letter 
organization  for  African  Americans,  Alpha  Phi  Alpha  set  the 
precedence  for  those  to  come.  After  83  years  in  existence,  the 
fraternity  has  nurtured  some  of  the  greatest  leaders  in  all  walks 
of  life.  Men  like  Martin  Luther  King,  Jr.,  Thurgood  Marshall, 
Nat  King  Cole,  Jesse  Owens,  and  W.E.B.  DuBois  are  only  a  few 
of  the  brothers  among  the  100,000  that  have  helped  to  shape 
history.  Delta  Eta  Chapter,  founded  on  April  24,  1945,  is  cele- 
brating its  40th  anniversary  at  Savannah  State  College.  The 
Chapter  has  made  a  strong  commitment  to  making  a  positive 
contribution  to  the  community  by  having  tutorial  workshops, 
participating  in  the  Boys  Scouts  of  America,  heading  a  youth 
group  for  young  men  in  high  school,  and  visiting  and  caring  for 
elderly  in  the  community.  Ever  striving  to  live  up  to  its  motto, 
"First  of  All,  Servant  of  All,  We  Shall  Transcend  All",  Alpha 
Phi  Alpha  will  continue  to  endure  the  test  of  time.

.a  Phi  Beta  Sorority,  Inc.  was  founded  in  1920,  on  the  cam- 
>  of  Howard  University  in  Washington,  D.C.  as  the  sister 
organization  to  Phi  Beta  Sigma  Fraternity.  Five  women  chose 
not  to  embrace  the  tenets  of  established  black  sororities,  and 
chartered  this  sorority  to  encourage  the  highest  standards  of 
scholarship  through  scientific,  literary,  cultural  and  educational 
programs;  promote  service  projects  on  college  campuses  and  in 
the  community;  foster  sisterhood;  and  exemplify  the  ideal  of 
Finer  Womanhood.  The  sorority  was  the  first  to  charter  interna- 
tional chapters  in  West  Africa  and  Germany.

aware  of  the  vast  opportunities  in 
computer  science.  Our  major  goal  is 
to  keep  SSC  students  abreast  of  what 
is  going  on  in  the  computer  industry. 
This  year,  the  club  has  updated  the 
Pascal  compiler  and  has  managed  to 
keep  the  computer  laboratory  open 
after  hours.  We  hope  we  will  be  able 
to  establish  a  chapter  of  the  Associ-

(ACM)  at  Savannah  State  College  in 
the  near  future.

and  ^Howard  University;  Just  imagine  a  football  game  without  a  marching 
band  or  a  basketball  game  without  a  pep  band.  The  Marching  Tigers  is  a  high 
;  stepping  band  ready  to  make  a  name  for  itself  once  again  with  its  Dance  Line, 
Flag  Corps,  and  Drum  Section.  Being  a  part  of  the  Orange  Crush  is  an  honor 
that  only  few  can  claim.  Putting  on  the  half  time  show  may  look  easy,  but 
members  must  work  hard  to  be  a  part  of  the  Marching  Tigers.  With  the  help  of 
the  students,  faculty,  and  staff,  the  Marching  Tigers  will  be  back  on  the  map.

Yearbook 


For  many  students,  the  first  floor  of  the  King-Frazier  Complex  was  a  place  to  hangout,  play  cards,  meet  friends,  and  eat 
lunch  However,  a  handful  of  dedicated  students  bypassed  these  types  of  activities  each  day  to  go  to  work  in  a  small 
room  on  the  second  floor  of  the  building  —  the  Tiger  Yearbook  room.  Staff  members  could  usually  be  found  doing  the 
seemingly  endless  tasks  necessary  to  complete  the  book.  Long  nights  and  weekends  were  spent  in  the  room  meeting 
deadlines  as  the  most  serious  socializers  became  workaholics.  Random  shouts  of  everything  from  "Does  anyone  know 
the  girl's  name  in  the  picture?"  to  "Where  are  my  organization  pictures?!"  to  "Who  wants  to  type  some  copy?"  echoed 
throughout  the  room.  Although  photographers,  section  editors,  and  typists  .seemed  to  come  and  go,  a  lew  staff  members 
"hung  in  there"  and  helped  to  produce  a  book  which  would  make  themselves  as  well  as  the  (...liege  proud.

Fall  1988 


TIGER  TRACKS 


As  SSC  students  savored  their  last  few  weeks  of  summer  vacation,  the  football  team  was  busy  getting  ready  for  another  season. 
Despite  losing  several  key  players,  the  team  had  hopes  of  another  winning  season.  The  opening  contest  with  Fayetteville  State 
University  was  close,  but  SSC  prevailed  with  a  9-6  victory.  During  the  first  away  game,  the  Tigers  broke  an  eight-game  losing 
jinx  against  Tuskegee  University,  with  a  come  from  behind  31-21  victory.  Tuskegee  was  the  preseason  favorite  to  win  the 
Southern  Intercollegiate  Athletic  Conference  championship.  SSC's  Tigers  could  not  find  a  victory  during  its  next  3  games.  They 
suffered  loses  to  Alabama  A  &  M  University  (10-14),  Wofford  College  (23-24),  and  Morris  Brown  College  (7-18).  After 
making  some  changes  in  both  the  offensive  and  defensive  lineups,  the  Tigers'  hard  work  began  to  pay  off.  Coach  Davis  and  his 
staff  led  SSC  to  victory  with  a  30-6  annihilation  of  Johnson  C.  Smith  University.  Next,  Savannah  State  spoiled  Clark  College's 
Homecoming  festivities  by  whipping  the  Panthers  58-14.  Highlighting  SSC's  98th  Anniversary  Celebration,  the  Tigers 
exploded  past  Morehouse  College,  70-13.  It  was  the  most  points  scored  by  a  Tiger  football  team  since  1980,  when  SSC  defeated 
Fisk,  77-0.  The  win  over  Morehouse  was  the  3rd  in  a  row,  which  improved  SSC's  record  to  5-3.  After  taking  a  week  off,  the  Ti- 
gers came  back  to  maul  the  Wildcats  of  Ft.  Valley  State  College  41-14.  SSC  had  a  commanding  33-0  halftime  lead.  In  its  final 
outing,  with  nothing  to  lose  and  everything  to  gain,  the  Tigers  defeated  Albany  State  College  28-22,  and  knocked  the  Golden 
Rams  out  of  a  possible  post-season  playoff  birth  for  the  2nd  time  in  the  3rd  quarter.  It  was  the  5th  win  in  a  row  for  SSC,  and  end- 
ed the  season  8-2,  thanks  to  a  forfeit  by  Morris  Brown  earlier  in  the  season.  The  8-2  record  was  the  best  in  the  school's  history. 
Most  of  the  players  will  return  next  year,  and  they  are  hoping  for  bigger  and  better  things:  Bryant  Swinson  was  one  of  the  leading 
blockers  for  the  Tigers,  which  allowed  Richard  Basil  to  complete  55.7%  of  his  passes  for  1 ,497  yards  and  15  touchdowns.  Most  of 
the  catches  were  made  by  All  America  Shannon  Sharpe,  who  hauled  in  57  receptions  for  1 ,03 1  yards  and  1 2  touchdowns.  Edwin 
Ford  led  the  ground  attack  by  grinding  out  383  yards  and  2  TD's.  Defensively,  Damon  Johnson  had  109  tackles  and  9  QB  sacks, 
but  Darryl  McCormick  and  Norman  McGeathy  were  right  behind  him  with  98  89  tackles  respectively.  Eric  Brown  had  7 
interceptions  and  broke  up  another  24  pass  attempts  to  lead  the  team  in  both  categories.  Several  of  the  Tigers  were  honored  for 
their  outstanding  performances  during  the  season  by  the  SIAC.  They  were:  wide  receiver  Shannon  Sharpe  (SIAC  MVP), 
quarterback  Richard  Basil  (Best  Offense),  punt  returner  Willie  Deloach  (Punt  Returns),  cornerback  Eric  Brown,  defensive 
tackle  Damon  Johnson  and  offensive  guard  Bryant  Swinson.  Coach  Bill  Davis  was  named  SIAC  Coach  of  the  Year  for  the  2nd 
time  in  3  years.  Some  National  Football  League  scouts  consider  Eric  Brown  to  be  a  possible  pro  prospect  in  this  year's  upcoming 
football  draft.

Savannah  St.  Draws  the  Line 


When  most  fans  think  of  Savannah  Stale  football. 
quarterback  Richard  Basil  and  wide  receiver  Shan- 
non Sharpe  come  to  mind 

But  the  pair  say  ihey  aren't  the  ones  under  the 
gun  this  week  against  Savannah  Slate 

Instead  they  point  to  the  offensive  line 

Saturday,  the  Tigers  will  travel  lo  Albany  for  a  1 
p.m.  game  against  the  Golden  Rams 

Albany  Stale  has  the  lop  defense  in  the  Southern 
Intercollegiate  Athletic  Conference,  giving  up  1  67 
points  and  2103  yards  per  game  Hie  Golden  Rams 
rank  second  in  the  country  in  scoring  defense 

Meanwhile,  the  Tigers  have  the  best  offense  in 
the  conference  The  Tigers  are  averaging  352.9  yards 
perjame.  while  scoring  30  6  points 

Trie  key  is  the  Albany  Slate  defensive  front,  pul- 
ling pressure  on  the  opponents  backfield 

■They  have  the  No  I  defense,  so  their  line  is  do- 
ing a  tremendous  job,''  Basil  said  'We  have  the  No 
1  offense,  so  our  line  is  doing  a  great  job.  We  know 
they're  going  to  try  to  do  a  lot  of  blitzing  But  our 
line  has  been  doing  such  a  great  job  that  it's  going  to 
be  hard  for  them  to  get  lo  me. 

•Our  line  has  to  have  been  doing  something  or 
else  our  running  backs  wouldn't  be  gaining  ail  the 
yards  and  I  wouldn't  have  been  able  to  pass  Our 
linemen  are  not  only  good,  but  they  can  think  They 
■  Albany  State!  can't  afford  to  send  fewer  than  four 
because  of  our  une 

Before  the  season.  Basil  was  an  unknown  Now.  it 
appears  Basil  may  have  been  the  missing  ingredient 
i  the  SSC  offense 


Basil,  a  junior  college  transfer,  is  one  of  the  top 
quarterbacks  in  the  NCAA  Division  U  rankings  Be- 
fore last  week  s  game,  he  was  ranked  12th  For  the 
season,  he  s  completed  [OS  of  1BI  passes  for  1,394 
yards  He  a  only  thrown  four  interceptions  on  the 
season. 

On  the  other  hand.  Sharpe  was  known  Last  year. 
he  caught  60  passes  for  1.07)  yards  and  10  touch- 
downs. He  entered  the  season  a  marked  man. 

Yet.  bis  stals  are  remarkably  similar  to  last  sea 
son.  In  nine  games,  he's  caught  SI  passes  for  8P 
yards  and  II  touchdowns 

Sharpe  credits  his  success  to  the  offensive  line. 

'Last  year.  I  snuck  up  on  people  No  one  was  ex- 
pecting that. '  Sharpe  said  "This  vear  everyone 
knew  I  was  double  and  triple  teamed  1  was  begin- 
ning to  doubt  if  ( would  get  1.000  yards.  But  I  told  the 
offensive  line  it  didn't  as  long  as  we  won.  Several  of 
them  me.  Do  you  want  1,000?'  I  said  yes.  They  said, 
We'll  get  it  for  vou  '  Now.  I  only  need  m  yards  for 
1.000 

But  it's  like  I  said  yesterday  I'd  rather  tike  ■ 
victory  " 

Before  the  season  started,  the  quarterback  spot 
was  up  for  grabs.  Many,  including  Sharpe.  trough! 
Johney  Jeffrey  would  be  the  starter.  Instead,  Bull 
won  the  role 

Sharpe  said  he  could  tell  right  off  BasU  m  tat 
quarterback 

Coach  had  told  me  he  could  throw  the  bail," 
Sharpe  said  "I  didn't  know  anything  about  tum 
since  he  was  from  a  JUCO.  But  I  knew  he  waa  a 
leader  He  did  everything  right-  He  is  our  kader.  H* 
takes  charge  in  the  huddle ;  nobody  talks.  He  makes 
ua  go.  he  and  the  offensive  line. "

ALBANY       It  had  the  appearance  of  locker 

an  of  the  World  Series  winners 

ftere  was  yelling,  dancing,  singing,  and,  yes, 
champagne  spraying  And  II  was  deserved 

In  (he  record  book,  il  won't  say  Savannah 
Suit  wor  ant  championship  on  Nov   12, 1968 

*tt  kj  their  hearts  the  player?  and  coaches 
'  aslv  did  By  beating  Albany  Stale  38-22 
■  Hugh  Mills  Stadium,  the  Tigers  can  call 
themselves  the  uncrowned  Southern  Intercolle- 
giate Athletic  Conference  Champion 

Albany  State,  which  dropped  lo  8-2  and  6-1  in 
the  SIAC.  came  into  the  game  with  the  confer- 
ence title  The  Golden  Rams  defeated  Morns 
Brown  last  week 

SSC,  which  closed  its  season  also  at  8-2  and 
(-1,  could  not  win  the  title  no  matter  what  the  re- 
tulL  The  SIAC  ruled  at  the  start  of  the  season 
thai  schools  on  NCAA  restriction  or  probation 
would  not  be  eligible  for  conference  titles  SSC's 


BthJeftc  program  Wat  placed  an  rwirtctjon  when 
the  school  did  not  meet  NCAA  Division  II  re- 
quirements by  not  Deldlng  a  women's  tennis 
i  team 

So  the  victory  was  sweet  for  SSC  coach  Bill 
Davis. 

"When  we  started  In  August  we  knew  we 
couldn't  be  the  conference  cnampions.''  Davis 
said  "But  If  you  beat  the  champ,  you  are  the 
champ  And  we  beat  them  on  their  own  field  " 

And  they  did  It  In  impressive  fashion,  using  a 
balanced  attack  The  Tigers  gained  170  yards  on 
the  ground  and  171  passing.  Albany  Stale  gained 
20!  yards  rushing  and  138  passing 

"1  don't  know  where  to  start  pinning  the  lau- 
rels," Davis  said  "There's  so  many  Coaches 
don't  win  games.  Players  do  We  knew  comingin 
here  we  had  to  stop  their  running  game  We 
knew  their  passing  wouldn't  hurt  us." 

Willie  Conway  was  the  main  concern  of  the 
Tigers  The  freshman  back  gained  133  yards  and 
scored  three  touchdowns  on  I!  carries  But  for 
most  of  the  game,  he  was  bottled  up  by  the  Ti- 


gers 

But  the  main  with  the  pressure  on  him  was 
center  Allen  Williams  Playing  with  a  bad  knee 
and  a  hurt  foot.  Williams  bed  to  block  nose  guard 
Wklbert  Cooper,  who,  the  coaches  wild  Is  the  key 
to  the  Golden  Ram  defense 

Williams  had  little  problem. 

"I  had  to  take  him  on  myself."  Williams  said 
"He  whipped  me  a  couple  of  times  early.  But 
coach  told  me  to  auck  It  up 

"The  offensive  line  deserves  a  lot  of  credit 
We  had  some  downfalls  in  the  game,  but  we  were 
able  to  move  It" 

And  the  Tigers  moved  It  with  they  needed  it 
SSC  scored  In  all  four  quarters  of  the  game 

SSC's  first  touchdown  was  a  3-yard  sprint  to 
the  right  corner  of  the  end  ■»  by  Corey  Ladson, 
capping  an  sVvard  12-play  drive  with  5  37  left  In 
the  first  period. 

Albany  State  tied  the  game  at  7-7  with  M  SI  c 
left  in  the  half  on  a  33-yarrJnin  by  Conway

History  was  made  when  these  7  women 
came  together  to  compose  Savannah 
State  College's  1st  women's  cross  coun- 
try team.  They  endured,  and  even 
though  the  season  was  relatively  short,  it 
was  successful.  The  women  did  not  falter 
when  they  met  with  long  miles  and  steep 
hills. 


The  cross  country  team  was  recognized 
during  the  SSC  vs  Ft.  Valley  football 
game.

For  everything  there  is  a  season,  and  a  time 

for  every  matter  under  heaven; 

a  time  to  be  born,  and  a  time  to  die; 

a  time  to  plant,  and  a  time  to  pluck  up  what  is  planted; 

a  time  to  kill,  and  a  time  to  heal; 

a  time  to  break  down;  and  a  time  to  build  up; 

a  time  to  weep,  and  a  time  to  laugh; 

a  time  to  mourn,  and  a  time  to  dance; 

a  time  to  cast  away  stones,  and  a  time  to  gather  stones 

together; 

a  time  to  embrace,  and  a  time  to  refrain  from  embracing; 

a  time  to  seek,  and  a  time  to  lose; 

a  time  to  keep,  and  a  time  to  cast  away; 

a  time  to  keep  silent,  and  a  time  to  speak; 

a  time  to  love,  and  a  time  to  hate; 

a  time  for  war,  and  a  time  for  peace.

'REMEMBER  ME" 


REMEMBER  ME  when  I  am  dead 
and  simplify  me  when  I'm  dead. 

As  the  process  of  earth 

strip  off  the  colour  and  the  skin: 

take  the  brown  hair  and  blue  eye 

and  leave  me  simplier  than  at  birth, 
when  hairless  I  came  howling  in 
as  the  moon  entered  the  cold  sky. 

Of  my  skelton  perhaps, 

so  stripped,  a  learned  man  will  say 

"He  was  of  such  a  type  and  intelligence. 

Thus  when  in  a  year  collapse 
particular  memories,  you  any 
deduce,  from  the  long  pain  I  bore 
the  opinions  I  held,  who  was  my  foe 
and  what  I  left,  even  my  appearance, 
but  incidents,  will  be  no  guide. 

Time's  wrong-way  telescope  will  show 
a  minute  man  ten  years  hence 
and  by  distance  simplified. 

Through  the  lens  see  if  I  seem 
Substance  or  nothing:  of  the  world 
deserving  mention  of  charitable  oblivion, 

not  by  momentary  spleen 
or  love  into  decision  hurled, 
leisurely  arrive  at  any  opinion. 

Remember  me  when  I  am  dead 
and  simplify  me  when  I'm  dead. 


no  more.

Just  another  Ice  Cold  chilly  brother 
of  Alpha  Phi  Alpha. 


It  would  never  have  happened  without  the  crew:  L  to  R 
Paula  (Ester),  Kenneth  (Outstanding),  Roger  (Rog),  Mi- 
chel (Mikeydo),  Joel  (Joe  Flowe),  and  Oscar  (Butch). 


Mr.  Flowe  passes  on  some  useful  tips  to  Jesse  Jackson  that 
he  picked  up  in  the  unforgettable  Dr.  Walton's  class  and 
during  his  unforgettable  reign  as  Vice  President  of 
S.G.A.,  and  Jackson  says,  "I  never  thought  of  that." 


Front  to  Back:  Outstanding,  Moose, 
Execution. 


"CHEESE!' 


James  Jones  says,  "Posse  Up!"  as  the  "Battle- 
ship Skeezer"  heads  south  to  Daytona. 


Same  shirt,  different 
smile,  but  nonetheless 
what  a  looker! 


On  the  left:  The  newest  edition  to  the 
Flowe  family,  Nia  Imani  Robertson. 
On  the  right:  Her  mother's  hand.

The  order  is  rapidly  fading 

and  the  first  one  now 

Will  later  be  last 

for  the  times  they  are  a-changing 

Time  it  was 

and  what  a  time  it  was) 
It  was  . . . 

a  time  of  innocence 

a  time  of  confidence 

What  a  time  I  had  at 

SSC . . .

Dear  Savannah  State  College  Family, 

It  has  been  a  great  honor  and  privilege  for  me  to  be  Editor-in-Chief  of  the  1988-89 
SSC  "TIGER"  yearbook.  It  is  my  sincere  hope  that  this  book  has  captured  at  least  one 
special  moment  and/or  memory  that  you  hold  dear. 

With  the  help  of  some  dedicated  and  enthusiastic  individuals,  we,  the  TIGER  staff, 
feel  we  have  produced  the  single  best  edition  of  the  TIGER  yet.  This  year  we  tried  to 
use  every  creative  method  that  was  available  to  us.  Our  goal  was  to  use  techniques  that 
would  breathe  life  into  each  and  every  page. 

During  the  year.  I  used  to  think,  "What  have  I  gotten  myself  into?"  There  were  days 
when  I  felt  like  walking  away  from  it  all  when  it  seemed  as  if  nothing  would  go  right, 
but  that 's  when  I  would  turn  to  God  and  ask  him  to  give  me  strength.  I  sacrificed  a  lot 
of  my  time  to  produce  this  book,  and  if  I  had  to  do  it  again,  I  would. 

To  those  of  you  who  see  something  in  "THE  EYE  OF  THE  TIGER"  that  you  do  not 
like,  tell  me.  If  there  is  something  that  you  do  like,  tell  others.  Fellow  Tigers,  I 
challenge  you  to  join  the  1989-90  yearbook  staff  and  make  the  next  edition  even  better 
than  ever  in  the  upcoming  celebration  of  our  alma  mater. 

Mav  you  carry  this  book  and  the  memories  it  harbors  in  remembrance  of  your 
college  experience. 


Respectfully  yours, 
Renee  Rolling
