Recruiting academic excellence

Yeager scholarships Marshall University "came

into view" on a national level in February with the an­nouncement at the National Press Club in Washington, D.C., of an innovative schol­arship program known as "The Society of Yeager Scho­lars."

The program, originally termed "The A-Team," is designed to recruit and enlist 20 academically outstanding students each year beginning in 1987. They will be recruit­ed in much the same way as athletes.

Those chosen will be allot­ted funds to fully cover tu­ition, books, room and board, as well as additional stipends for travel and other expenses . The scholars will be involved in international and continen­tal travel and will plan pro­grams for and interact with professional achievers in

104 - GRADUATES

their particular field of study. Each scholar also will be assigned a "faculty coach" who will act as a mentor.

In return, t he scholars will be expected to maintain a rigorous academic schedule as well as involve themselves in leadership roles at the university.

The idea for the program was conceived by Joseph P. Hunticutt, a retired business­man from Huntington and a 1957 graduate of Marshall. Hunticutt brought the idea to President Dale F. Nitzschke in 1984, and the program finally "came into view" in 1986 after Hunlicull and Carolyn Hunter, a Communi­ty College professor and di­rector of the program, ironed out the details with retired Brig. Gen. Charles E . (Chuck) Yeager, a native West Virginian internation-

ally reknown for breaking the sound barrier and other feats as a test pilot .

Yeager's role in the pro­gram will consist primarily of recruiting and fund-raising although he said he may visit the campus once a year to acquaint himself with the scholars.

The program was expected to cost approximately $800,000 in its first year.

A GREAT HONOR - Native West Virginian Brig. Gen. Charles E. [Chuck) Yeager ac­knowledges the announce­ment of the scholarship which bears his name. President Dale F. Nitzschke and other univer­sity administrators attended the ceremony at the National Press Club in Washington, D.C., in February. The scholar­ship program was formerly known as the A-Team.

Wiggins Bar B-Q

MU restaurant In June of 1958, a new

restaurant opened across the street from what was then Marshall College. The restau­rant, Wiggins , has since come to be as much a part of Marshall as any of the bu 'ld­ings on campus.

Robbie Freeman, a mem­ber of the family that owns the restaurant, said he thinks the reason for the continuing popularity of Wiggins is that he is constantly working to revise and modernize the menus to reflect the changing tastes of the Marshall com­munity. He also attributes much of the success to the extensive advertising the res­taurant does in local newspa­pers as well as the campus newspaper.

A new feature added to the restaurant is a delivery ser­vice. Freeman said this began when the restaurant started delivering to local hospitals and realized the potential for such a service. Before long, Wiggins was delivering 20 percent of its orders and had

106 ·SENIORS

to hire three people to make car deliveries and one or two more to walk deliveries to buildings on campus.

Customers who decided to eat in Wiggins dining area felt right at home in the "Marshall" atmosphere of lht: rt:slaunml. The walls in the first dining area were covered with historical pic­tures of Huntington and Mar­shall University. The second room was devoted to Mar­shall athletics and filled with memorabelia from past ath· letic accomplishments. Free­man said he got this decorat· ing idea from a restaurant he visited in Virginia.

Because of the growing success of the establishment, Freeman said plans were under consideration to add another 50 to 75 seats and extend the business hours. THANK YOU, COME AGAIN -Robbie Freeman, a member of the family that owns Wiggins restaurant, helps out by run­ning the register and process­ing take-out orders.

Machines help cure munchies

Nothing could have been more embarrassing than be­ing in the quiet confines of a classroom or the library and suddenly hearing a rumbling noise and realizing it was your stomach. Almost inaudi­ble chuckles grew into laugh­ter as people began to figure out who it was. "You could have just died" of embarrass­ment.

However, there was hunger relief to be found close by, no matter where you were. Near­ly every building on camp s was equipped with vtmling machines. A variety of food items was available to satisfy nearly every taste. Sand­wiches , cookies, candy bars , crackers and chips were al­ways at hand, as well as soft drinks, milk and juice for those who needeo to curb

110 ·SENIORS

their hunger or quench their thirst .

Among those who frequent­ed these machines were stu­dents, professors and even university administrators. It seems sometimes the tempta­tion of a quick snack between classes hit nearly every one.

The university provided an office to refund money to those who fell victim to a money.hungry, but stingy vending machines. And near­ly all machines on campus wore the dents and footprints of angry people who didn't appreciate being "ripped off."

The informants Marshall provided many

ways for students to stay informed of the events and activities around them.

Every Marshall student, at one time or another , read the school newspaper, The Par­thenon. This newspaper was prodw.:e<l throughout the school year Tuesday through Friday in conjunction with classes of the W. Page Pitt School of Journalism. The staff was made up entirely of students with a faculty advis­er.

The Parthenon off~red a variety of features of interest to students. A calendar sec­tion kept students apprised of events and meetings going on across campus; a "Readers Speak" section allowed stu­dents space to comment on everything from political to­pics to the latest issue on

campus; and the many cou­pons and specials offered in the newspaper helped budget· conscious students find a place to eat that was afford­able.

Another way students could keep up with campus events was t.o listen to Lhe campus radio station, WMUL-FM. The station, also run entirely by students and volunteers , offered some­thing to fit every taste.

The news department kept students informed with daily newscasts and news briefs, and WMUL was the only station to broadcast the Southern Conference Tourna­ment in its entirety from Asheville, N.C.

Other features on the sta­tion were Sports View with a guest in area sports; a show airing common concerns with Ray Woodruff, a Huntington pastor; and a weekly talk program called "Talking with President Nitzschke."

~ OUTLAW FOR A GOOD CAUSE - President Dale F. Nitzscllke sacrificed a day of freedom for Cancer Arrest Day.

, Outlaws On Wednesday, Nov. 6,

MU President Dale F. Nitzschke was arrested by the American Cancer Society.

The Cancer Arrest day was part of a fundraising drive in which Dan Ferguson, a Hun­tington police officer, arres­ted Nitzschke and several other prominent citizens who were held for "bail." All the money was donated to the fundraising drive.

On Nov. 19 and 20, Mar­shall students competed with West Virginia University in a blood drive co-sponsored by the American Red Cross and the Marshall Student Gov­ernment Association. As an extra incentive to donate, the MU Parking and Public Safety office agreed to accept the donation of one pint of blood as payment for one MU parking ticket. The in.;entive worked and Marshall was awarded a trophy for beating WVU in both number and percentages.

OUT FOR BLOOD-Duringthe blood drive, students could exchange a pint of blood as payment for one MU parking citation.
