From the President's Desk 

In the Spring of the Year, 

Big Changes for Indiana Central 

by I.C.U. President Gene E. Sease 

May has been an exciting month in Indianapolis! Along with all the activi- 

ties associated with the 500 Race at the Speedway, Indiana Central has had an 

historic meeting of the Board of Trustees, a record breaking Alumni Day, and its 

final Commencement as Indiana Central College. 

Commencement Day saw us award 400 degrees to graduates in a program 

highlighted by an address from the outgoing Dean, Robert E. Cramer, who has 

been named as our first distinguished professor to our first endowed profes- 

sional chair, the RaineslMueller Chair of Philosophy and Religion. Alumni Day 

was an equally beautiful day on campus-iust right for a noon picnic which at- 

tracted 140 more than had made reservations. It was an altogether monumental 

weekendl 

For two days preceding Alumni Day, the Board of Trustees met to take 

some far reaching actions and hear the report of institutional activities. A brief 

digest follows: 

Change of Name-The use of our legal and corporate name, Indiana Central 

University, was begun June 1. Many of you already hold diplomas in that name 

since degrees were awarded as such through 1930, following adoption of the 

college name in 1921. We believe there is good reason to now return io the 

name under which we were incorporated in 1902. 

A new seal.-The new University seal includes the lamp of learning and the 

exterior design of our former seal with changes in wording to add our motto, 

"Education for Service" and our city name. 

An old pattern.-We have again operated on a balanced budget, as we have 

for a quarter-century, thanks to all of you who believe in what is happening at 

your Alma Mater and who continue to provide increased support. We have 

topped the "500" mark in Fellows memberships and alumni giving for 1974-75 

is at an all-time high, up nearly 20% from last year! 

A new parking area.-Visitors to the campus on Commencement weekend 

saw a new 180 car asphalt parking lot north of Hanna and west of Otterbein 

where School 104 formerly sat. This is phase one of the development of that 

total area which will include the new Memorial Library north of the new park- 

ing area. 

Unification.-The Academic Services office now provides for all academic 

services to day, evening, and graduate divisions and is now located in Good 

Hall. Dean Leonard T. Grant is administratively responsible for all divisions. 

Curriculum Expansion.-A new program leading to the Master of Business 

Administration (MBA) degree will begin this fall. The M.A. program is being 

expanded to include music and art. New programs will include Legal Assistants, 

Public Affairs and Community Service, and Health Careers. 

Relocation.-Admissions and Financial Aid has been moved to Schwitzer Cen- 

ter where an office of Student Services has been established dealing with all 

matters of student concern. Placement, Church Relations, Alumni Relations, and 

Public Relations have been moved to Esch Hall. 

May has been a busy month1 These are but some of the changes that have 

been taking place on campus. If it has been a while since you have visited us, 

why not stop by. We think you will like what you see!

Reflections 

Making the Pieces All Fit 

by Greg Michael ’69 

ICU Admissions Counselor 

I guess as a young man I stayed quite a while in my room, that is, the 

room my parents made for me. 

It seemed to me at the time that all the other kids were intent upon break- 

ing theirs up. They made fun of the furniture and colored on the walls. There 

they were, spitting on the bathroom mirror to get a better look at themselves 

after a few wipes with a sleeve. They must have been delighted at the hook 

noses and holes waiting for teeth, for they always ran back to their rooms with 

laughter that knew more for the look. Then it would begin again, the pillow 

fights, broken valances, and the bang of knocked-over chairs. 

When the neighbors complained of the noise and the obvious disregard 

for period furniture, the embarassed parents would meekly apologize with a 

nervous laugh, which was always iust a little too loud, and say something pro- 

found like, “They are only children.” 

I mostly investigated what was in my room, and at first anyway, took ii 

all as the basic room for any well brought up child. 

I always admired the sturdy heirloom furniture, all genuine, with years oi 

history brought to my attention by the corners worn smooth by separate, unique 

lives; each shaping the furniture as if it would always be theirs. 

My aunt was born on the oak bed. All that ioy bustin‘ through pain. A green 

sprout of hope, all wrinkled and showering out life in all directions, but thai 

was a lot of rooms ago. Yet you see, there sat the bed, the very bed. So you 

can’t disregard it, because it was involved with people that mattered. It was a 

good bed, but a little high and somewhat too short. Sometimes I had visions 

that the whole of Christian history, all 2,000 years of it, must have had some 

connection to that bed. 

There were lots of things to consider in my room. I kept almost every 

thing. The bureau had two little drawers at the top where all the odds and 

ends wound up. Most of my maior toys had a secret small dot of red nail 

polish hidden somewhere to distinguish them from my brothers, ‘cause we usu. 

ally were given the same things. 

Then there was the time I looked all around the house. It’s amazing hob 

different a room looks when you look at it from the outside. There are really e 

lot of different ways of putting a room together. One of the first things I really 

noticed was this statue of God by our family Bible. I was really fascinated 

He had a very strong, commanding look about Him; yet a calm, gentle gaze 

from His eyes made you know there was most of all a love that could nevei 

be completely fathomed. I imagined that there were surely lightning bolt: 

tucked under His toga, but there was also His open hand, like an invitation ic 

pick Him up. The first thing that struck me was He was a lot heavier than He 

looked. It wasn‘t long until, in my play, His arm broke off, letting the whole 

thing fall smashing to the floor into a million pieces. All I had left was the 

open hand I was holding. I had made such a racket I knew my parents woulc 

soon be on the run. Man 0 man! Wait’ll they see this mess! 

You know, it‘s a funny thing, when they saw what had happened they saic 

it was OK. After all, they said, the statue was going to be mine anyway. Bu 

they did suggest I might try to put it back together, even if it wouldn’t be exactl) 

the same as when they gave it to me. 

I was lucky the hand was still OK. It gave me a place to start. 

I decided Indiana Central might be able to help me make the pieces fit 

I needed somewhere to learn, to concentrate and to grow. I chose Central be 

cause the people there seemed to care what happened to me. 

I was several years gluing, filing, shaving, drinking coffee and consider 

ing what worked best where. Still, I iust barely had a recognizable shape. I 

was a real job. There were so many ways to put it back together, and the 

longer I looked the more hopeless I thought it was.

.

ICC Becomes ICU, 

New 

Indiana Central college has finally 

become Indiana Central University . . . 

well, sort of. 

Actually, we have always been 

I.C.U., because that is our corporate 

name, the name we use in all of our 

business transactions. The college, or 

university was known as Indiana Cen- 

tral University from its founding in 

1902 through 1921. 

In 1921 the board of trustees, at 

the encouragement of the State Board 

of Education, adopted a resolution not 

to change the name of the school, but 

to use the name of Indiana Central 

College, because we did not offer 

graduate degrees. This was done to 

gain certification for our teacher edu- 

cation program. 

The action to revert to the name 

Indiana Central University came at a 

meeting of the Board of Trustees in 

mid-May. 

Dr. Sease, in making the announce- 

ment of the change, said, "Our pro- 

grams have expanded considerably 

since- the 1921 action and we now 

offer graduate studies to students. We 

believe our present programs more 

nearly fit the format of a university.'' 

Changes will be made in campus 

stationary, and shirts and many other 

small items. But in making the change, 

the Board of Trustees also adopted a 

new seal for the university. The new 

seal bears the new name of Indiana 

Central and adds the word "lndianap- 

olis" to indicate our location. 

Other changes in the seal include 

the replacement of the Roman numer- 

als for 1902 with the corresponding 

Arabic numbers, and the replacement 

of the Latin inscription with the uni- 

versity motto, "Education for Service." 

The dark shield has been removed 

from the seal, but the torch remains. 

The figurative rays extending out from 

the torch of knowledge have now been 

lengthened to the edge of the seal to 

show that they are not bound. 

(i 

Name, New Seal 

Two new signs are also being added 

to the campus. Each will bear the 

greeting, "Welcome to Indiana Cen- 

tral University," on one side and the 

motto "Education for Service," on the 

other. One sign will be located at 

the far west end of campus on the 

north side of Hanna near the new 

parking lot. The other will be located 

at the far east end of campus just east 

of the gym. The signs will have black 

letters on a white field, and will be 

supported by two brick pillars. 

The name "Indiana Central College" 

is to be removed from its present po- 

sition on the west end of both Good 

and Esch Halls. 

New University Seal 

~ 

library Gifts 

Indiana Central recently announced 

receipt of two gifts for the new library. 

They total $300,000. 

In making the announcement of the 

gifts, President Sease said that the 

donors of the gifts, one for $275,000 

and the other for $25,000, both wish 

to remain annonymous. 

Total cost of the library proiect is 

set at $6.25 million. Half of that 

amount is being provided by the Kran- 

nert Charitable Trust as a matching 

grant. The university hopes to reach 

its $6.25 million goal by the end of 

this year, and to begin construction 

early in 1976.

Cra mler Named 

Dr. Robert Cramer, retiring Aca- 

demic Dean of Indiana Central, will be- 

come I.C.U.'s first distinguished pro- 

fessor. He will occupy the Raines- 

Mueller Chair of Philosophy and Reli- 

gion. The announcement came at the 

1975 commencement shortly before Dr. 

Cramer delivered the commencement 

address. 

The chair is being established to 

honor two clergymen who have served 

Indiana for many years. The two are 

Bishop Richard C. Raines, and Bishop 

Reuben H. Mueller. The college is 

presently in the midst of a campaign 

to raise $300,000 to endow the chair. 

Dr. Cramer, Dean of Indiana Central 

from 1955-1 975, told this year's gradu- 

ating class, "We must accept ourselves 

with all our imperfections and limita- 

to New Chair 

tions, and we must recognize that while 

we believe in democracy, it is a myth 

to think that we are equal in terms of 

talents." 

He went on to say, "Commencement 

is a time for joy and elation, but it is 

also the time for tears. Never again 

will the cycle of days bring us together 

in this unique company of graduates, 

friends, and alumni. Life will find you 

journeying on all earth's highways. 

And if perchance you never return to 

these hallowed corridors, may each of 

you be spared the tragedy of discover- 

ing that you have not lived all the days 

of your life." 

The 70th commencement was held 

in the gymnasium, and degrees were 

presented to candidates by President 

Sease. 

Dr. Robert M. booker, chairman of 

the Science Division, and chairman of 

the Chemistry Department has been 

named Outstanding Chemist of the Year 

by the Indiana Section, American Chemical 

Society. The award is given annu- 

Virginia Sims, Chairman of the IC Nursing Department 1959-75 (Shown here 

ally to the most distinguished chemist 

with her father), received a Good Samaritan award of Indiana Health Careers 

in the state. This is the first time an 

Indiana Central professor has won the for 1975. The award was for "extraordinary achievement in the development 

award. of health man power."

26 IC Seniors Join 

Epsilon Sigma Alpha 

On the eve of alumni Day this May 

26, new Epsilon Sigma Alpha members 

were initiated into that senior honor 

society. Membership is determined by 

the examination of the student's aca- 

demic work and his or her contribution 

to campus life. 

The 29th annual E.S.A. dinner-meet- 

ing was held in one of the side dining 

rooms in Schwitzer Center on Friday 

evening, May 16. The gather group of 

60 included alumni members of the or- 

ganization, members of the organiza- 

tion's executive board, and the new 

initiates. This year for the first time. 

new initiates were allowed to bring 

their spouses to the meeting. 

Several campus personalities were 

guests of E.S.A. at the dinner. Among 

these were President Gene E. Sease, 

and Dr. Edward of Vondrak. Dr. Vondrak, 

a member of the Indiana Central 

physics and mathematics department 

and a member of Phi Beta Kappa, is 

aiding the senior honor society in its 

current exploration of the possibility of 

national affiliation. 

The evening began with an invocation, 

and was followed by a steak dinner. 

Traditionally, the new initiates are 

the guests of E.S.A. at this event. 

Following the dinner, the evening's 

address was delivered by Indiana Central 

faculty member William H. Hudnut 

Ill. Hudnut, a former U.S. Congressman 

from Indiana is now running for mayor 

of Indianapolis. At the university he 

serves as assistant director of continuing 

education. 

Following Hudnut's address new

and presented with commemorative 

certificates from the ocasion. 

Those initiated include Rita H. Ault, 

Terri Rae Chattin, Margaret L. Haverstick, 

Kathleen Hoagland, Jolene S. 

Hochstetler, Susan J. Humbarger, Bruce 

G. Jones, Kay Kirkpatrick, Patricia A.

Secretary-Treasure Terry A. Taylor '73 

reported on the financial situation of 

Epsilon Sigma Alpha, and of their at- 

tempt to locate a group for national af- 

filiation. 

Finally, all the alumni members pres- 

ent introduced themselves to the group, 

and told what they are doing now. 

The meeting was closed by Dr. Roy 

V. Davis '25, this year's Distinguished 

Alumnus.

Spring Brings 

Off ice Moves 

To IC Campus 

If you come looking for the Alumni 

Office in the lower level of Schwitzer 

Center you may be disappointed: we 

aren't there anymore. 

As part of the series of administrative 

changes made at the college this 

spring the Alumni Office has been 

moved to the lower level of Esch Hall. 

Our exact location is the former office 

of admissions on the hallway that runs 

East and West, parallel to Hanna Avenue, 

on the south end of the building. 

In our new office we are being 

ioined by the office of public relations 

and church relations. We all belong 

to the division of the college administration 

known as Administrative Support 

Services. 

Our old office complex in Schwitzer 

Center is now housing Student Services 

which includes both the Dean of Students 

and the Dean of Women, and 

the Admissions Office staff. 

The offices of Placement and of 

Human Relations which also were located 

in the alumni lounge area have 

been moved, too. 

Placement is now located on the 

main floor of Esch Hall in the office 

formerly occupied by the registrar. 

Human Relations headed by Kip Kistler 

is now located in what was the Central 

Council office on the Schwitzer 

Center Concourse. 

Incidentallly, if you are wondering 

what happened to the registrar, you will 

find that his office and all academic 

offices are now located in the old evening 

division office area in Good Hall. 

New Trustees 

On Friday May 16, 1975, President 

Sease announced that Mr. Gordon St. 

Angelo has been elected to the Board 

of Trustees of Indiana Central for a 

th ree-yea r term. 

Dr. Sease also announced that Indianapolis 

Mayor Richard G. Lugar has 

been elected Vice-chairman of the 

Board. 

Members of the Board who were reelected 

for another three-year term 

were Robert Baxter, State Representative 

Ray P. Crowe, and Dr. Harriet 

Capehart.

Teachers Told: 

"Update Files" 

SUBJECT: Alumni Teaching Credentials 

and Placement Services 

If you are a school teacher and if 

you did your student teaching at Indi- 

ana Central, you probably have teach- 

ing credentials in the Career Counsel- 

ing and Placement Bureau. Your cre- 

dentials probably include confidential 

teacher recommendations, your auto- 

biography, a personal data sheet and 

other important teaching related rec- 

ords. The file is maintained and made 

available to your potential employers, 

upon their request or yours, free of 

charge to you by the Placement Office. 

Since placement credentials for teach- 

ers are an integral part of the hiring 

process of most school systems, as well 

as most colleges and universities, it is 

highly important to the candidate to 

keep the credentials file up-to-date. 

We suggest that when you change iobs, 

that you ask one or two of your teach- 

ing associates to send the Placement 

Office a letter of recommendation to 

be included in your file. These letters, 

in addition to an updated personal data 

page, are almost a necessity when you 

are seeking a new employer. Unfortu- 

nately, many times schools will request 

an alumnus' credentials, as a result of 

his making application, only to find 

that the file has not been updated 

since graduation. This reflects poorly 

on the candidate and may jeopardize 

his chances for employment. 

Remember your teaching credentials 

file is reproduced and sent to prospec- 

tive employers as a free alumni service 

to you. In order for it to be of maxi- 

mum benefit to you, you need to give 

it attention from time to time. If you 

have questions about your file, or wish 

to update and need some advice please 

call or write John Beebe (317) 788- 

32% in the Placement Office. 

If you are seeking a teaching iob in 

the Midwest and would like the help 

of the Placement Office, simply call or 

write your desire to register with place- 

ment. We will notify you of specific 

vacancies made known to us and also 

include your name and qualifications 

in our publication to school systems in 

Indiana and the four surrounding states. 

Again this is a free alumni service and 

we encourage you to take advantage 

of these newly expanded services of 

the Career Counseling and Placement 

Bureau. 

On May 18, 400 students became 

IC alumni. It was a time for ioy, and 

for reflection, as shown in these pic- 

tures. 

Hilton, Deever Given Degrees At 

May 18 Commencement 

Dr. John W. Deever, alumnus Bruce 

Hilton, the Reverend William Theodore 

Murphy, and the Reverend Phil1 L. 

Stephens were awarded honorary de- 

grees at the 70th annual commence- 

ment at Indiana Central on May 18, 

1975. 

The Reverend Stephens, who served 

as baccalaureate speaker, received ihe 

Doctor of Divinity Degree. He pres- 

ently is the district superintendent of 

the Lafayette District of the United, 

Methodist Church. 

Dr. John W. Deever, school physi- 

cian since 1940, and a longtime friend 

of the college, received the Doctor of 

Humane Letters Degree. 

A native of Dayton, OH, Dr. Deever 

came to Indianapolis in 1940 and orga- 

nized a student health program and 

taught classes at Indiana Central. Dr. 

Ceremony 

Deever is also an Honorary Alumnus 

of Indiana Central. 

The Reverend Murphy was also 

awarded the Doctor of Divinity Degree. 

He is currently district superintendent 

of the Indianapolis Southeast District 

of the United Methodist Church, and 

is a member of the Indiana Central 

Board of Trustees. 

Bruce Hilton, an ICC alumnus, was 

also awarded a Doctor of Divinity De- 

gree. He presently is director of the 

National Center for Bioethics (a non- 

profit organization devoted to increas- 

ing public awareness of the ethical, 

social and legal issues that arise from 

current advances being made in biol- 

ogy. Hilton delivered this year's Sut- 

phin lectures on campus. He has been 

cited for his work in easing racial 

tension in Dayton, OH, by the Catholic 

Interracial Council.

Sports 

With a 4-3 and 10-3 double base- 

ball victory over cross-town rival Butler 

U. on May 3, Indiana Central clinched 

its first alltonference title since join- 

ing the Indiana Collegiate Conference 

in 1970, even though we do not par- 

ticipate in swimming. 

Following those victories, the Grey- 

hounds went on to gain a tie for 

second place in baseball with St. 

Joseph's College. 

Other sports action went like this: 

Lead by five individual champions, 

the Greyhound grapplers nailed down 

their third conference title in the last 

five years with a 135 1/2 point team 

total in conference action this spring. 

Closest challenger to the IC team 

was Wabash with 122 points. Valpa- 

raiso finished third with 88 1/2, Evans- 

ville fourth with 86, and DePauw fifth 

with 53 1/2. 

Individual IC winners were Bruce 

Jones at 126 Ibs., iunior Joe Myers 

at 134 Ibs., 150 Ib. senior Jeff Ray- 

bourn, Mark Dullaghan, a 167 Ib. 

iunior, and freshman heavyweight Tom 

Zupancic. 

Plagued with injuries for most of the 

season, Coach Weatherald's wrestlers 

struggled through a 7-5 season. For- 

tunately, everything seemed to fall 

into place about conference time. 

Coach Jerry England's track squad 

finished a strong second in the ICC 

track meet hosted and won by Val- 

paraiso U. on April 26. They then 

topped off a successful season with a 

convincing victory at the Little State 

Championship the following week over 

conference champs Valpo. 

New school records set in competi- 

tion this season include: Shot put

Dave Hilton Takes Medicine To Honduras 

"Many of the patients broke down 

and wept because they were so grate- 

ful. It was very difficult for us to 

leave." 

These were the words of alumnus Dr. 

David Hilton '53 of Menomonie after a 

mission of mercy to Honduras last De- 

cem ber. 

He was accompaned by his son, Ben, 

a iunior at Menomonie High, and Dr. 

and Mrs. Bruce W. Trimble, of Menom- 

onie. 

The quartet left Friday, December 13, 

for Miami, FL, where they were ioined 

by 16 other persons from throughout 

the country who are trained in the 

medical profession. The following day 

the contingent embarked by plane for 

Tegucigalpa, the capital of Honduras. 

On Sunday, the group from Meno- 

monie, along with several other per- 

sons, traveled by bus to the mountain 

village of Manzaragua, located about 

90 miles southeast of Tegucigalpa. Dr. 

Hilton remained here until Thursday 

afternoon seeing patients. 

The excursion was sponsored by the 

Christian Medical Society with the Med- 

ical Group Missions, an arm of the 

society, organizing the trip. Dr. Hilton 

said MGM organizes about 10 to 15 

such trips annually, mostly to Central 

American countries. 

While Manzaragua is identified on 

the map, Dr. Hilton said the only build- 

ing in the village is a school and when 

the medical team arrived Sunday after- 

noon, lines of patients were already 

waiting. 

The country of Honduras attracted 

national publicity earlier in the year 

when it was struck by a hurricane but 

Dr. Hilton explained that Tegucigalpa 

and the mountain villages were out of 

the storm area. However, he said, evi- 

dence of the hurricane was noted in 

Tegucigalpa where mud slides off the 

mountains wiped out homes. 

Dr. Hilton reports the team worked 

with the Honduran Red Cross which 

made the physical arrangements and 

provided support personnel. 

The Honduran Red Cross, he said, 

determined that the mountain villages 

had more medical needs than other 

sections of the country because a vast 

majority of the people had never con- 

sulted a medical doctor or a dentist. 

He said a hospital is located in Te- 

Dave Hilton 

gucigalpa but a resident of Manzaragua 

desiring to visit a doctor in that fa- 

cility would need to spend $10 for a 

round-trip ticket via truck, then stand 

in line from eight to ten hours to re- 

ceive an appointment three months 

from now. 

The number of doctors in Tegucigalpa 

is inadequate to serve the entire popu- 

lation, said Dr. Hilton, and one needs 

to be a member of the "upper class" 

to receive immediate attention. 

"Because of these conditions," he 

said. "very few residents of the moun- 

tain villages had ever been to a doc- 

tor." 

"We took medical supplies with us," 

he continued. "'I collected medicine 

from drug companies and salesmen and 

also purchased some supplies. Dr. Trim- 

ble did the same thing." 

Dr. Hilton spent from Sunday after- 

noon to Thursday in Manzaragua and 

Friday morning in Guinope visiting pa- 

tients. (Dr. Trimble, after spending a 

couple of days in Manzaragua, finished 

his tour in Guinope.) 

During his stay in Honduras, Dr. Hil- 

ton estimates he saw about 200 pa- 

tients per day and "100 percent of 

them had worms." In addition, he said, 

there was a lot of arthritis from hard 

work and a fair amount of malnutrition 

and vitamin deficiencies. 

"All our patients had very bad teeth 

which had been destroyed by decay," 

said Dr. Hilton. While no accurate count 

was kept, it is estimated that Dr. Trim- 

ble performed 500 extractions while in 

Honduras. (He brought his own supply 

of novocaine with him.) 

Dr. Trimble's dental chair was a lawn 

chair propped up on a couple of boxes. 

There wasn't any electricity, said Dr. 

Hilton, and Dr. Trimble's only source of 

artificial light was a battery-operated 

head set. 

The team worked in the school house 

and Dr. Hilton said he examined pa- 

tients from 8 a.m. to 5-6 p.m. daily. 

He said he was assisted by three nurses 

who obtained case histories. 

Spanish is the native language and 

Dr. Hilton doesn't speak the language 

so patients related their "problems" 

through interpreters. 

The total team included the quartet 

from Menomonie, three nurses, another 

nurse who with her husband are mis- 

sionaries in the Dominican Republic and 

her three children, two ladies from the 

Honduran Red Cross, and five high 

school students from Tegucigalpa. The 

three children, ages eight, ten and 

twelve, served as interpreters. 

Dr. Hilton's son and the five high 

school students worked as helpers (in 

military terms, they were support per- 

sonnel, said Dr. Hilton), and they be- 

came very good friends, although they 

had problems communicating. 

"One of Ben's prime responsibilities," 

said Dr. Hilton, was to draw prepared 

medicine from a gallon lug with a syr- 

inge and give each patient a 'shot in 

the mouth' for worms." 

The Menominie delegation also slept 

in a school house and ate their meals 

in a private home. 

"We didn't have any drinking water 

so every time we were thirsty we ate 

an orange." said Dr. Hilton. The natives, 

he added, obtain their drinking water 

from a small creek which is also utilized 

for washing clothes and a watering 

spot for cattle. 

Dr. Hilton described the natives in 

the mountain villages as "subsistence 

farmers"-they raise sufficient crops to 

survive-and the principal foods are 

beans and tortillas (corn cake). They 

also raise rice, bananas and oranges 

and some farmers have a couple of 

cows, a burro and a few chickens. He

"If My Friends Could See Me Now" 

Roy Davis was named 1975 

year's alumni buffet. 

The convocation began with a flam- 

boyant singing presentation of "If My 

Friends Could See Me Now" by alum- 

nus and former Centralairs member 

Beverly Butler Taylor '74, who stepped 

in at two days' notice for laryngitis- 

plagued Jena Jones '74. 

Emcee for the program was Assist- 

ant to the President of I.C. Lynn Young- 

blood '63. 

Among those participating in the 

program were Roy Davis '25, named 

1975's Distinguished Alumnus for his 

long and good service to Indiana Cen- 

tral, who was interviewed before the 

audience of 500 alumni about how he 

first came to Central, and what a few 

of the highlights were in his more than 

50 years with the college. 

Also interviewed was Dr. Charles 

Dill '50. Dr. Dill, who has served as 

team physician for Indiana Central for 

many years, talked about his experi- 

ence with Central, and how he re- 

fereed the first team wrestling match 

at the college. 

Throughout the convocation the audi- 

ence was treated to slides of alumni 

"then and now," and to a series of 

"Distinguished Alumnus" at this 

"200 years-ago-today"-style glimpses 

back into the history of the college. 

These brief interludes were presented 

by Nathan Wooden '47 of the Develop- 

ment Office; Rosemary Peterson, Dean 

of Women; Florabelle Williams Wilson 

'49, Librarian; Larry McCarty '65; Terry 

Taylor '73, Assistant Director of Publi- 

cations; and Marshall Chambers '40, 

Director of Church Relations. 

Anniversary classes of 1925 and 

1950 were introduced. 

The morning's program was con- 

cluded with a multi-screen slide and 

music presentation about our campus 

produced by alumnus David Brady '64 

and Public Relations Director Lou Gerig. 

Leaving the cool darkness of Rans- 

burg Auditorium at noon, the alumni 

greeted the bright world of sunshine 

for the Brown County-Style Picnic. The 

temperature was ideal-lazing in the 

mid-70's. The sky was as blue as it 

ever is in May, and alumni and their 

families seemed to enjoy the food and 

the campus park. 

Following the long and leisurely 

lunch, the many gathered alums spent 

the afternoon in a variety of activities. 

At 1:30 the classes of '25, '30, '35, 

'40, '45, '50, '55, '60, '65, and '70 

gathered in Schwitzer Center for class 

reunions and reunion pictures. 

At 2 p.m. baseball old-timers and 

present I.C. baseball players gathered 

for a game at the campus field. The 

youngsters pulled out a victory in a 

close game. 

A delightful fashion show sponsored 

by Stretch and Sew brought together 

40 women in an upstairs conference 

room in Schwitzer Center to see how to 

save money in coordinating a ward- 

robe. 

As 3:30 p.m. rolled around alumni 

members of Philalethea shared tea and 

cookies in the faculty lounge of Schwit- 

zer Center. The group sadly announced 

that it would no longer continue meet- 

ing. The tea brought to an end the 

afternoon activities of Alumni Day. 

At 530 p.m. the new members of 

the Alumni Board of Directors; Jim 

Brunnemer, Alumni Director, and his 

wife, Luella Sauer '69; and President 

and Mrs. Gene E. Sease formed a 

pre-dinner receiving line on the lower 

level of Schwitzer Center. 

The evening buffet which featured 

shrimp, lasagne, and roast beef capped 

off the day's activities. After-dinner 

music was provided by the Faculty Dis- 

cords, Lynn Youngblood '63, Reggie 

Monson, George Humbarger, and Adolf 

Hansen, who sang barbership quartet 

songs, and serenaded retiring Alumni 

Association president Michelle Stone- 

burner Branch '66. 

New Alumni Board members were 

then sworn in, plaques were presented 

to retiring board members, and presi- 

dent Michelle Branch thanked the As- 

sociation for its help and aooperation 

during her term of office. 

Following her comments, Lloyd Hiatt 

'40, incoming alumni president, made 

a few remarks, and then anouncement 

was made that Mr. and Mrs. Alonzo 

Nicodemus, 91-year-old parents of 8 

Indiana Central graduates, were being 

named Honorary Alumni of Indiana 

Central. The two were present and 

drew a standing ovation from the 

crowd as they accepted membership. 

A second highlight of the evening 

was the presentation of the 1975 In- 

diana Central Distinguished Alumnus 

award to retired professor Roy V. Davis 

who continues to live in University 

Heights and attends many campus func- 

tions.

Alonzo And Naomi Nicodemus 

Named Honory Alumni of ICU 

Story by Terry A. Taylor 

Parents grumble today about putting 

one or two children through college. 

Between 1929 and 1948 Alonzo and 

Naomi Nicodemus of Atwood, IN, put 

all eight of their kids through Indiana 

Central College. 

Saturday May 17th the 91 year old 

retired minister and his wife were 

named honorary alumni of the college 

at the annual alumni day activities. 

Not a year went by between 1929 

and 1948 without a "Nick" on campus. 

Daniel, Wendell, Elsie, Waldo, Kathryn, 

Ruth, Alonzo and Lois literally kept the 

campus going during those years. 

Though there were a few scholar- 

ships, and some financial help from 

their parents, the kids had to work 

their way through college. One of the 

girls was secretary to the president of 

the college. One of her brothers took 

care of hte grounds at ICC, while an- 

other was cook. 

One summer Daniel, the oldest son, 

was given a piece of land to farm. He 

raised potatoes and sold them to the 

college that fall to help pay his tuition. 

Even though tuition averaged only 

about $100 a semester those days, put- 

ting four boys and four girls through 

college in the middle of the Depression 

was no easy iob. 

Still, all eight of the Nicks went on 

to become teachers after graduation. 

Today, Dan is a teacher in Blooming- 

ton, CA, Wendell is a teacher in Fort 

Wayne, Elsie (who taught for many 

years) is now a housewife in Northern 

Indiana. Waldo is a missionary in 

Pueblo, Mexico. Kathryn teaches in 

Royal Oak, MI, Alonzo Jr. is principal 

at Crooked Creek elementary school, 

and Lois is a housewife. 

Ruth, Lois and Alonzo Jr. were at 

the college May 17th to see their 

parents honored. 

Two of Alonzo and Naomi's grand 

children attended the college in the 

1960's and 70's. 

Naomi turned to Alonzo before the 

honors ceremony on Saturday and said, 

"Maybe some of our great-grand chil- 

dren will get to Indiana Central, do you 

reckon?" He smiled and nodded. 

1 What does doing unto others as 

' you would have them do unto you 

mean? We might all take a lesson 

from Alice Eversole '62 and Glenna 

Apsley '63. The two live in Decatur, 

IL. They had been saving money 

for some time in order to be able 

to take a trip to Europe. But in- 

stead of taking the trip Alice and 

Glenna used the money to buy lake- 

side property and turn it into a 

camp for the youth of their United 

Methodist Church in Decatur. The 

camp is called Camp One Way and 

is southwest of Decatur. 

(Continued from page 11) 

estimated that each farmer works from 

two and one-half to five acres. 

In addition to attending to health 

needs, both doctors gave lectures on 

preventive health care. "We told them 

to wash their hands before they eat to 

prevent worms and what foods to eat 

to improve nutrition. Dr. Trimble de- 

scribed dental care techniques," said 

Dr. Hilton. 

The Menomonie delegation returned 

to Tegucigalpa Friday afternoon and 

enioyed a "meal out" before the Hiltons 

traveled by plane Saturday morning to 

Miami. 

Dr. Hilton said the Hondurans were 

"very friendly" and many patients 

brought gifts, including oranges, chick- 

ens, flowers and a native drink made 

from rice. 

"1 have always been interested in 

using my knowledge where there is a 

greater need," he remarked when 

asked why he devoted a week of his 

vacation to this activity. 

It might be added this is one way 

of saying "Merry Christmas" to persons 

who were so thankful for the "gifts" 

they received. 

The Indiana Central Alumni Lettermen held their 

third annual golf outing June 17 at the Golf Club of 

Prestwick near Brownsburg. Over seventy former 

athletes participated in the event, termed by club 

officers as "our finest and most enjoyable outing to 

date." 1961 grad Don Bisesi, club pro at Prestwick 

served as host for the event which was won by Morris 

Masten, '56, with a score of 71. An awards banquet 

followed the golf outing. At left is Rick Reasoner.

Keith Brown: 

Big Force for U.S. 

Middle Schools 

by Terry A. Taylor '73 

At its annual convention being held 

in Columbus, Ohio in November of 

1974, a young and growing organiza- 

tion called the National Middle School 

Association inaugurated a d y n a m i c 

Hoosier as its president. The Hoosier 

is Keith Brown '51. He has assumed 

the presidency of an organization that 

is devoted to the preservation and de- 

velopment of the middle school as "a 

distinct and necessary entity in the 

structure of American education." Keith 

did not come to the iob with inexperi- 

ence; he had already served as the 

group's first vice-president and as one 

of its trustees. 

What the NMSA is all about is the 

problem of the adolescent in education. 

In the traditional scheme of things 

in American education students in the 

middle grades-6, 7, 8 and 9-were 

g r o u p e d together; sometimes this 

grouping included the 6th and ex- 

cluded the 9th; sometimes it included 

the 9th and excluded the 6th. Some- 

times the grouping included only the 

7th and 8th. 

In the middle school, however, the 

school is designed specifically for the 

needs and interests of students in 

grades 6, 7 and 8, those who are mov- 

ing into the uncertain period of ado- 

lescence. This three-year setting of 

classes takes into account the fact that 

a number of students in the 6th grade 

are moving into puberty and adoles- 

cence, with new social and emotional 

demands being made on them. In this 

system, these students are separated 

from younger grade school children, 

while the more mature 9th graders are 

sent on to high school. The middle 

school concept tries to take into ac- 

count, also, the fact that the day and 

class structures of education for young 

adults must be different from the make- 

up of most grade or high schools. It 

differs substantially from the basic 7 

or 8 period per day schedule of most 

junior high schools. 

18 

According to Keith Brown, the mid- 

dle school concept, and more specifi- 

cally this concept as it is used in the 

Perry Township Schools, is an effort, 

"to provide a series of experiences, 

and more specifically learning experi- 

ences, that are unique to this age 

group which is experiencing a wide 

range of growth rates. We need to 

take account of their wide diversity of 

growth rates and their emotional moun- 

tains and valleys." 

When it was decided in 1970 that a 

new school for iunior high age students 

would be built in Perry Township, Keith 

found himself in a position to be able 

to help decide not only what kind of 

Keith Brown 

building would be constructed, but also 

what kind of curriculum pattern would 

be built for the new school. After ex- 

tensive research, Perry Township fol- 

lowed up Keith's suggestion and opted 

for the middle school design. 

The school they built for 6th, 7th, 

and 8th graders uses a "modular" sys- 

tem of scheduling. In this system the 

class day is not divided into equal 45- 

minute-to-an-hour periods of time, each 

devoted to a different subject matter. 

Instead, the Perry plan divides the day 

into 28 mini-periods, each 15 minutes 

long. These "mods" can be put to- 

gether in varying numbers so that in- 

stead of the unvarying equal length

Hal Cole '54, principal of Southport 

Middle School and husband of IC 

staffer Joyce Cole, works closely with 

Keith. 

classes, a student may find that one 

class will last for as little as 30 minutes 

while another may continue for up to 

21/4 hours. 

Moreover, since at this time of life 

student interest and attention some- 

times lag after a few weeks of study, 

classes are not all scheduled to run 

for full semesters. 

The middle school at Perry Township 

has even incorporated an activity period 

into the day's schedule to help stimu- 

late students. This class allows students 

a voice in their education, since they 

very nearly run this hobby-oriented 

period themselves. 

But once the curriculum for this new 

middle school had been designed, the 

school system was still left with the 

problem of finding the right kind of 

teacher for the school. Few universities 

actually train undergraduates to teach 

in the middle school. Because of this 

Keith had to choose his teachers from 

the ranks of those already teaching in 

high school or grade school, or in the 

traditional junior high school. He makes 

no bones about the fact that he drew 

many of his teachers from the ele- 

mentary level. The infusion of these 

teachers gave the middle school, in his 

words, "a shot in the arm," because 

these teachers were often more ade- 

quately prepared to deal with students 

of the middle school age and their pe- 

culiar demands. Teaching, good teach- 

ing, is of course at the heart of any 

educational system. 

Keith himself began his career in 

education as an elementary school 

teacher in Perry Township. When he 

first began teaching, his one goal in 

life was to become an elementary 

school principal. Just four short years 

after he began to teach he realized his 

dream and became principal at the 

Glenns Valley Elementary School. He 

stayed in his work at Glenns Valley for 

4 years before moving laterally to be- 

come principal of the new Abraham 

Lincoln Elementary School where he 

worked for the next 6 years. 

It was in 1970, though, that his 

rise continued upward. In the autumn 

of that year he was asked to head up 

Perry East Junior High School while at 

the same time moving into a position 

as an assistant superintendent for Perry 

Township. From this perspective he 

formulated his views on the middle 

school and later became seriously in- 

volved in the NMSA. 

That's the story of his rise in the 

field of education, but how Keith be- 

came an elementary teacher through 

his work at Indiana Central is an in- 

teresting story in itself. 

Young Keith Brown, a boy whose 

relatives both close and distant had at- 

tended Indiana Central, found himself 

arriving for classes at ICC in the fall 

of 1947. He was too young to have 

served in World War II (though he later 

served a two-year "hitch" in the serv- 

ice in Hawaii and Germany), and came 

to college with not too many ideas 

about what he wanted to do in life. 

On registration day he ended up 

being processed as a music maior, with 

his schedule programmed for all four 

years. He wasn't happy with this and 

sought council from his older sister, 

Lucille, who was also a Centralite. She 

counselled him not to accept what 

others told him to do, and rather to 

search out what was right for him. 

He did. 

He spent his first year at Central 

taking liberal arts courses, the broad 

ones that give an individual a sampling 

of what each area of the humanities 

has to offer. 

After that first year of observation, 

Keith made the momentous decision to 

declare an elementary education maior. 

Though such a declaration seems rather 

tame by today's standards, according to 

Keith, his announcement of an "el ed" 

maior made him something of a rare 

breed among male students, many of 

whom were worldly, battle-hardened 

veterans. Keith was one of perhaps 

only 3 or 4 men with an elementary 

education maior at that time. 

"While at Central," said Keith, "I 

worked at anything and everything to 

earn money. I worked in the kitchen 

at Central, at the Southern Circle Res- 

taurant (the south side's one night spot), 

and at West's Bakery." About his edu- 

cational experience at ICC he said, 

"What I learned there in the classroom 

now helps me, though indirectly, to 

solve problems as I draw from my 

experience ." 

Today, Keith lives near the college 

with his wife, Effie (Buchanan) '54, 

who had studied English and home eco- 

nomics at ICC, and who now works 

as a librarian. The Browns have 4 

children ranging in age from 12 to 17. 

Keith seemed rather puzzled when 

asked if he had any time for hobbies; 

he is active in Phi Delta Kappa, the 

Association for Supervision and Cur- 

riculum Development, the Indiana Mid- 

dle School Association, the American 

Association of School Administrators, 

and organizations for elementary prin- 

cipals, secondary principals, and super- 

intendents. He does manage to have a 

few non-professional interests, though. 

He keeps up a fixit shop in his base- 

ment where he, like thousands of other 

Americans, tinkers. He also reads vora- 

ciously (and he said with mock guilt), 

too much, especially in magazines and 

newspapers. 

What are the plans for the future of 

a man who has already achieved more 

than his original hopes? "The only 

maior plan I have," he said, "is to stay 

on the board of the NMSA after I re- 

tire as its president. I truly believe 

our organization is going to have an in- 

creasingly important influence on Amer- 

ican education." 

With men like Keith at the top, it 

should.

Biographical Notes 

JON ECKELS 

(or Jon B. Eckels-He rarely uses the initial 

"B', and never the middle name it indicates.) 

Upon graduating from Indiana Central Col- 

lege in 1961, Jon Eckels moved to Califor- 

nia, worked and wrote until 1963; then he 

entered the Baptist Seminary in Mill Valley 

for one semester, transferred to the Pacific 

School of Religion in Berkeley where he 

graduated in 1966. As a Methodist min- 

ister of the Northern California-Nevada Con- 

ference he pastored a church in Oakland, 

California for two years. During that time 

he was very active in the Black liberation 

Movement, as a poet, speaker, organizer, 

newspaper editor and teacher. He appeared 

in a film, "The Fire This Time", with Black 

Panther Chairman Bobby Seale and the au- 

thor James Baldwin. 

In 1968 he began teaching in the Eng- 

lish Department at Mills College where he 

stayed until 1973. He also taught at Mer- 

ritt College and Stanford University. He ap- 

peared on television and radio in various 

states of the nation. Since 1970, Eckels 

has divided his time between Ph.D. work 

in Stanford University English Department 

and travelling and living in Africa and 

Europe. He has written several books of 

poetry and has nearly completed his first 

book of prose, a book of critical essays. 

In addition to appearing in magazines, 

newspapers and anthologies, he has been 

published by Broadside Press in Detroit, 

Michigan, Julian Richardson, Associates in 

San Francisco, and Firesign Press, a small 

company in which he is involved. He is 

presently editing an anthology of poetry 

for the company. He also made two tapes 

of his poetry for Broadside Press. 

He is committed to the struggle for Black, 

Third World and Human liberation, and es- 

pecially to a humane world for the children 

including his son (7 years old) Jon David 

Malcolm.
