All The Men 1966

The multi-faceted concept of a city in motion necessarily requires the many parts to be in harmony with the whole. The University of San Diego is a complex element of an immea­ surably more intricate social framework that comprises the city itself. The University serves as the hub of activity for its students, and yet, the aware participant does not limit himself to the confines of a few small buildings. He can be found working and playing in virtually every corner of the city, and his contributions, though often imperceptible, are seldom lacking. Future religious and secular leaders study side by side in preparation for their entrance into the community. The signif­ icance of their contribution lies not always in the effect it produces, but rather in their readiness to improve the society around them. For us, the University and the city of San Diego are inseparable. Its momentous growth is ou r growth, just as the intellectual atmosphere generated on our campus can be felt throughout the city. San Diego is the living, breathing em­ bodiment of a booming metropolitan center as well as the cultural and historical heritage of our ancestors. As members of the body, it is to the city that all the men dedicate their book.

The euphonious blend of old and new reflects the past, the present, and looks ahead to the future. The continuous path of progress leaves an indelible mark wherever it carves its way. The fa ces of the rocky hillsides and the valleys that were once fertile farmlands, have taken on exciting new shapes at the hands of skilled craftsmen. At the turn of the century, Mission Valley was a picture of rustic beauty bounded on thenorth and south by barren ridges.

Half a century later the scene w as not radically different; but today, the Valley throbs with activity, and one of those ridges affords the site for our University. The basic plant has been complete for several years, but progress is no stranger to Alcala Park. New construction, constant improvements and beautification have kept the campus in a pleasant state of flux, while remaining substantially unchanged.

The ci ty of San Diego owes its very exis­ tence to the Spanish missionaries who estab­ lished the first California mission here in 1769. The original building was located in the area now known as Presidio Park, but had to be moved to its present site to assure the safety of its i nhabitants. The new mission of San Diego de Alcala was built by Indian natives under the tutelage of Franciscans. It served as the place of worship for the sizable community that grew up around it.

8

The religious heritage of a Catholic Uni­ versity can be traced to its founders. Bishop Buddy directed the construction of the Imma- culata less t han one hundred years after the Mission was completed. The Immaculata is both a parish church and a chapel for the student-community. The blue-domed edifice is th e most striking feature of the campus it dominates. The exquisite shrine and its a we- inspiring interior were fashioned by artisans who may be descended from those same men who erected the Mission.

T h e r e a r e m a n y w a y s o f gauging the greatness of a man. One of these is the test of time. The bra ss relief image of Father Junipero Serra may be tarnished, but not so the image of the man. He remains one of the outstand­ ing founding fathers of our city, and his contributions and per­ sonal valor are unmatched.

10

The cast-stone statue of the Blessed Virgin Mary rests atop the pinnacle of the Immaculata and from the highest vantage point on campus, looks upon the city below. It keeps a constant vigil over citizens and students alike.

n

The c ity in panorama reveals a variegated combination of sizes a nd shapes. The silvan beauty of the mountains and parks is thrown into vivid contrast with the geometrical silhouette of the skyline.

14

It is the Spanish Renaissance architecture employed in the master design of the campus that binds the University, at least superficially, into an artistic whole. The inherent unity of all the men, however, transcends the exterior of the buildings and is made manifest in the spirit and devotion of the individual who prospers with the growth he effects.

15

People are the life-blood of any city, and simi­ larly, the constituent element of a university. Citi­ zenry within the University of San Diego includes a diverse group of undergraduate students, a select number of graduates, seminarians seeking to take a step closer toward their ordination in the priesthood, and an unquestionably dedicated faculty and staff. Together, they constitute the members of our small city within a city. For in fact, our University is virtually self-sufficient and able to cater to the basic needs of its most demanding resident.

JUNIORS

The Junior Class of 1965-66 concentrated its efforts in one main direction. The Juniors attempted to bridge the gap between the College for Women and the College for Men. The unification process will never be achieved in its entirety, but definite progress was made. Jointly sponsored activities and mutual assistance between the two Colleges resulted in a greater degree of communication and under­ standing that is meritorious of itself.

The college sophomore is traditionally an enigma. He has taken the first giant step in his college career, but still remains on the fringes of higher education. The Sophomore Class of 1965-66 attempted to resolve the problem by building a strong foundation for their ultimate goal. As a result, the spirited Sophomores sponsored dances, ran the concession stand at basketball games, and were generally among the most active students on campus.

The Freshman Class has been acknowledged superior both in quantity and quality to many of its predecessors. Introduction and initiation into college life is truly an immersion into waters of a mysterious nature. The class of 1969 apparently made the transition with little difficulty. They were able to coordinate the efforts of a variegated group of individuals into a highly productive year.

1965-1966 was an active year on college campuses throughout the nation. Many of the activities were somewhat less than exemplary and aroused the sympath­ ies of conscientious students. One such group decided to take a positive stand on United States policy in Viet Nam. Spearheaded by Paul Cave, the students and faculty of the University of San Diego made such a commitment in no uncertain terms. The petition circulated in the Fall of 1965 left little doubt as to the willingness of the U.S.D. man to concern himself with the problems of the world around him while maintaining a balanced existence within collegiate circles.

89

ASSOCIATE STUDENT BODY OFFICERS

The City Council chambers offer a fitting background for Associated Student Body officers Tom Ward, Treasurer,- Robert Shapiro, Vice President; James Shultz, Secretary,- and Richard Donoghue, Social Chairman. The man hours spent in the past year working with Ernie Borunda, A.S.B. President, have resulted in one of the most productive years in U.S.D. history. The good omen cast by the highly successful summer dances was carried through a year marked by financial stability and an unusually well-balanced activities program. The quick pace seldom lagged under the supervision of these five men and they must be credited with establishing U.S.D. as aUniversity in Motion.

93

STUDENT COURT

A judiciary body performs the same basic functions on a university campus as it would within a larger social structure. The job of Student Court justice is often a thankless task, but nevertheless, a necessary one. Certain rules and regulations are essential if any vestige of order is to be maintained, and it is up to the justices to enforce these rules.

From its inception, the Society for the Preservation of Every Energetic Demonstration has performed a significant function on campus. SPEED has been largely responsible for generating an organized sense of school spirit and their posters and slogans are familiar to anyone who frequents the halls of the Arts and Sciences Building.

Alpha Delta Gamma Fraternity was founded in 1924 at Loyola University of Chicago. It is a National Christian Social Fraternity established on various Catholic colleges throughout the nation. The Omicron chapter has been an active campus organization at U.S.D. for five years. ADG is based on fraternalism, the true union of men in a common bond dedicated to high ideals and pledged to the success of its brothers and the realization of their goals. The purpose of Alpha Delta Gamma is "to unite congenial minded men." Emphasis is on the well rounded individual—the athlete aswell as the scholar. This academic year 1965-1966 has been marked by a number of outstanding accomplishments. ADG was rated number one among ninety other fraternities by the College Survey Bureau; Omicron won the A. J. Kelly Award for the best scholastic chapter in the organiza­ tion, and the Travelling Award for representation at the annual fraternity convention; finally, the year saw the activation of a record number of pledges. ADG also contributed to the overall spirit of competition and service exhibited by the fraternity system on campus with the Kickoff Dance, Greek Week victory, Snow Trip, "Mission to Mexico," clothes raffle, Flole-in-One contest, and an annual shamrock sale for St. Patrick's Day. The year of 1965-1966 has been one of plentiful deeds and not a few rewards. The Brothers of Alpha Delta Gamma at U.S.D. realized the challenge of showing continued competence and continued to strive for their goal of being only the best.

In the Fall of 1961, a year which had already witnessed the establishment of a fraternity chapter at U.S.D., three young men conceived the idea of a new and unique fraternal organization on our campus. Their months of discussion, effort, and planning were culminated on December 1, 1961 with the founding of Pi Kappa Epsilon. The new brotherhood maintained as its primary goal "the formation of the complete man". In pursuance of that objective, this fraternity has always been a highly selective group, recognizing that the individual, in his potential and development, is far more important than the organization. Such an orientation has invariably borne its fruit in the high calibre of the brotherhood. After two years' study, the brothers deemed it appropriate to affiliate with a national fraternity. The same study proved that the ideals of Tau Kappa Epsilon coincided with the ideals of Pi Kappa Epsilon. Therefore, on May 24,1965, Pi Kappa Epsilon affiliated with Tau Kappa Epsilon, which, above all else, stands for men. The continuing story of TKE is one of achievement, both locally and nationally. Besides being the largest fraternal organization in the world, TKE is ranked second in national strength. TKE has also repeatedly boasted the highest scholarship of all national fraternities. While aiming for their goals, the brothers enjoyed a very enterprising and gratifying year on campus. Always willing to lend a hand, the brothers have consistently offered their services to the Linda Vista Boy's Club. To further the pursuit of intellectual creative endeavors, TKE sponsored a creative writing contest. From the numerous entries, professional judges will choose the best poem and best short story for monetary awards. Plowever intellectual the brothers may be, they also have an unquenchable trait of gregariousness which they display in a unique manner. The following are typical: the annual "Mickey Finn's Party", the "Prohibition Party", "PiKE Pipers" party, "The Fighting 69th", "Rosarita Royale", and many more parties and gatherings. And when we really decide to go "off-the-walls", we invite over 1000 screaming teenagers to . . . "SPRING FEVER". PiKE/TKE adjusts to the fast moving life of a college student with stress on academic endeavors, social life, and inquisitiveness. The aforementioned activities are a proud record of a proud fraternity, TKE/PiKE.

- The Phi Kappa Theta man is more than just a man . . . more than just a student . . . more than just an athlete. A major difference in a Phi Kap is the type of fraternity life he leads. Phi Kaps work together in an atmosphere of brotherhood to mutually experience their development. The Phi Kap today is the*whole man tomorrow who will be the best father he can be . . . the best husband he can be . . . the best example he can be . . . the best Christian he can be ... he strives to be the best at whatever goal he is pursuing. This striving for perfection is sometimes assumed to be unattainable, but as members of a national fraternity founded on Catholic principles, the Brothers of Phi Kappa Theta have not withdrawn in the face of challenge. Their development is not always external, but it is an ever-present, undeniable fact that affects everyone around them. In accordance with these principles, the Phi Kaps act as ' 'fathers" to the Nazareth House orphans each semester,- they show themselves as Christians by regular attendance at Communion breakfasts; and they show themselves as good examples at all times. The Phi Kap of Phi Delta chapter is an active member of the University of San Diego campus. During the past year, The Brothers have promoted spirit with posters, spirit buttons, and faithful attendance at all ASB functions. Phi Kappa Theta is also involved in virtually every campus organization including the newspaper, annual, SAM, the glee club, and student government. All this added to an eventful social calendar within the Fraternity makes the Phi Kap a truly Busy Man On Campus. Phi Kaps are an active part of the life at U.S.D. A great university deserves to have agreat fraternity . . . Phi Kappa Theta.
