Intercom IPFW New building will house Medical School When the new classroom, laboratory and office building (Building “D”) opens sometime next Fall, IPFW will play host to medical students for the first time. Dr. Steven C. Beering, Dean of the Indiana University School of Medicine, middle, met recently with Fort Wayne Center for Medical Education officials, including Dr. Frank Bryan (left), Director of the Fort Wayne Center for Medical Education, and Dr. Barth H. Ragatz (right), Associate Director. While in town, Dr. Beering spoke at a meeting of the Fort Wayne Medical Society. In this issue September 24, 1980 A feature story outlines the career of James E. Thatcher, who is leaving IPFW to accept a position at St. Joseph’s College in Renssalaer, Indiana. Providing a real service to the university community is the Student Academic Counseling area. A story inside explains further. Intercom IPFW IPFW “major growth factor” in Thatcher career When the North Central Accreditation Committee released its report on IPFW last spring, particular notice was given to the sound fiscal management of the university. Perhaps the accolades need be directed to James E. Thatcher, Vice Chancellor for Financial Affairs. Thatcher, who is leaving IPFW to assume the position of Vice President for Business Affairs and Treasurer at St. Joseph's College, has been an administrator on this campus since 1974. He jumped on the Purdue bandwagon in 1961 after graduation from Ball State University. At the West Lafayette campus, he served in various auditing and business positions with different departments. At college graduation he was faced with the choice of a job with Purdue or the Internal Revenue Service. But after four years in the collegiate atmosphere, he figured that a "behind the scenes" look at Purdue might be interesting. That "behind the scenes" look became "behind the scenes" involvement as Thatcher progressed into more management responsibility, culminating in his position on this campus as Vice Chancellor in 1975. Management methodology Thatcher believes there is "no difference in the management climate" between a profit versus a service organization. "All organizations are made up of people," he explained. "It is my job to utilize their maximum potential.'' In making the most out of a person's abilities, Thatcher outlined the theory of "executive stretch." Motioning with his hands, he explained, "If an executive has potential to a certain height and does not meet up to standard, then this is executive waste." Extending this executive potential then, is how Thatcher views his role. On the home front “The rapport between the financial operation and the faculty on this campus has been a real plus factor,” said Thatcher. "The people here are just super." He cited the establishment of the Clerical and Service Staff Advisory Committee as his greatest accomplishment at IPFW. "The committee functioned very well. It had a wide-open healthy atmosphere," he believes. “I was able to serve as the eyes and ears from the administration and I enjoyed that role." New assignment At St. Joseph's, Thatcher will be in charge of financial and planning operations. The college is a Catholic-affiliated liberal arts and business school located about 20 miles from Thatcher's home on Lake Shafer. As Vice President for Business Affairs and Treasurer, Thatcher will supervise a staff of 100 and work hand-in-hand with the Board of Trustees. Living at their lake home, Thatcher's family will be able to continue their enjoyment of water sports. "The whole family loves skiing," he stated, referring to his wife, Connie, and two daughters, Tammy and Tracie. Connie is musically-gifted and has participated in many opera workshops. Oldest daughter Tammy is an IPFW sophomore, while Tracie is a junior at R. Nelson Snider High School. FORTE IS MANAGEMENT -- James E. Thatcher, Vice Chancellor for Financial Affairs, is leaving IPFW to accept a position at St. Joseph’s College. This new position will continue a career steeped in management. Thatcher has been with the "business side" of Purdue since 1961. He has been with IPFW since 1974. Above -- Thatcher enjoys a joke with a former boss at the IPFW Foundation, Purdue Executive Vice President and Treasurer Fred Ford.

Below -- At a noon luncheon, Marie Giusti visits with Alumni Trustee Robert Jesse and his wife, Donna. Swank, Palevich elected to lead Indiana and Purdue alumni groups Ruth D. Swank and Robert F. Palevich have been elected to lead the Indiana University-Purdue University at Fort Wayne alumni organizations for 1980-81. Swank will serve as the fourth president of the Indiana University at Fort Wayne Alumni Association, an affiliate organization of Indiana University. Palevich will be president of the Purdue at Fort Wayne Alumni Society, which is affiliated with the Purdue University Alumni Association. The two alumni groups work jointly on alumni activities and programs for the benefit of the local campus. About 70 percent of the nearly 11,000 IPFW alumni reside in the greater Fort Wayne area. Swank, an education graduate, is principal of the Perry Hill School. In 1972 she was named Indiana Teacher of the Year and an Outstanding Elementary Teacher of America. She is a member of Phi Delta Kappa, the National Association of School Principals, the Indiana University Alumni Association's Executive Council and is a former member of the Chancellor's Campus Advisory Board. Palevich, who holds degrees in computer science, supervision and business, is the inventory control manager for Hardware Wholesaler, Inc. He is a member of the American Production and Inventory Control Society and has served as an associate business faculty member at IPFW. Other newly elected officers of the Indiana University at Fort Wayne Alumni Association include: Mark E. Souder, vice president; Janet Iden, secretary; Mark Franke, treasurer and Steven J. Bollier, past president. Members of the alumni board include: Robert E. A'Hearn, Neil H. Kobi, Ruth Hayes, Debra Kruse, Mark S. Spade, Michael S. Carto, Kathleen J. Statz, Michael A. Snyder, Joseph L. Wiley, Jean R. Loftus and Marie Winebrenner. Newly elected officers of the Purdue at Fort Wayne Alumni Society are Marsha Tracey, secretary; Thomas R. Wray, treasurer and Judy Harnett, past president. Members of the alumni board include: Donna Andrews, Sanna Harges, Jane H. Graham, Diane E. Liverance, Candy Sausamann, Joann Schaab, Janet Weicker, Barbara Kidd and Edward L. Neufer. Ruth Swank Robert Palevich Shares Foundation thoughts Chancellor’s message Each September, on the third Tuesday, the Indiana-Purdue Foundation holds a public meeting in the Walb Memorial Union Ballroom. I thought it might be appropriate to recognize the important role the Foundation has played and continues to play in IPFW’s development by reproducing in Intercom, for your information, my remarks to the Foundation during the annual meeting last week. Before I do that, however, perhaps I should explain to those who are new to IPFW a little about the Indiana-Purdue Foundation. It was originally formed when Indiana University, Purdue University, and Fort Wayne leaders joined their efforts in 1958 to develop the concept for a unique educational venture. With the help of the Foundation, this concept culminated in the creation of events including the purchase of the original tract of land for the campus in 1958, the approval of building plans in 1961, ground breaking for Kettler Hall in 1962, and classes officially beginning in 1964. Since that time, the Foundation has continued to support the campus in a variety of ways, such as, to cite one example, the purchase of library materials each year. Remarks to the Indiana-Purdue Foundation “It has been a year since the Indiana-Purdue Foundation last met at IPFW. It is always an honor and privilege to have you here with us, since it was under the auspices of the Indiana-Purdue Foundation that the campus was first established in 1964. “IPFW today is the historical culmination of the ideas, efforts, and resources of an enduring and rather unique collaboration between IPFW’s faculty, its students, its alumni and friends, the Indiana-Purdue Foundation and the citizens of Fort Wayne and the State of Indiana. The members of this dynamic partnership have every reason to be proud of the result. Your vision has brought to reality a special idea, the idea of distinction in a large community-oriented public university. This idea was given substance by the continuing commitment of the two university systems and their supporters to participate in this exciting and exacting intellectual voyage toward excellence in teaching and scholarship. “As I commented at our Fall Convocation, the coming together of two administrative systems and two faculties at one institution has been well-paced. Rather than being pressed together like two continental plates along a San Andreas fault, the two have joined like separate rivers, naturally finding their way into the same riverbed. Understandably, there have been a few whirlpools caused by conflicting currents, but the overall flow has always been in the same direction: toward the goal of providing the people we serve with the opportunity to obtain an education of the highest quality. “An honest skepticism about our own efforts has been a constant traveling companionship that has helped us recognize our shortcomings, adapt to changing times, and thus retain our position in the world of education. In the coming decades, we will be challenged to find new ways to sustain IPFW materially and intellectually. We must commit resources sufficient to attract to IPFW talent of quality -- both as students and as professors. “It is not ordained that universities and their faculties be always richly endowed, but nor should they be relegated to a life of genteel poverty. Resources consistent with their role and mission are an absolute necessity. We rely on our partners in education to guide us in the appropriate ways to use our precious resources and to help us see what our priorities should be. “Now that I am a veteran of one year at IPFW, I can understand and appreciate more fully the role the Foundation has played in making IPFW what it is today. I applaud the men and women who made this possible and look forward to our continuing partnership in helping IPFW reach its full potential in the future.” - Chancellor Joseph P. Giusti. Faculty activities spark semester opening Around IPFW Professor Wen-Hui Tsai presented a paper entitled, “Social Change in Taiwan Under the Impact of Industrialization” at the 4th annual convention of the Chinese Academic Association in Mid-America August 29-31 in the Pick Congress Hotel in Chicago.

McVay Photographer: Gabriel DeLobbe Calendar: Lorane Hamblin Annual Gathering -- Members of the IPFW Foundation met for their annual meeting on the IPFW campus September 16. Shown engrossed in Foundation business, above, include: Jack Stark, Alfred Kettler, Sr., Walter Helmke and Harriet Inskeep. LRC Graphics Artist has literally “painted the town” for years Spotlight on Staff Lem Trawets was always a real card. As a pilot in the United States Air Force, he drew cartoons for his post newspaper, frequently hazing his superiors. The officers found it difficult to point a blaming finger, as there was no soldier named Lem Trawets. The man behind the mysterious moniker was none other than Mel Stewart, Lem Trawets backwards. Stewart a k a Trawets is still joking around. As Graphics Artist in the Learning Resource Center, Stewart has channeled his good humor in many directions. Even the Chancellor has been a Stewart caricature. The Giusti likeness entertains visitors in his paneled office, and states “someday we’re going to get organized around here.” “I like to needle,” stated the good-natured artist, “and I like for people to needle back.” His jests, however, come in the form of art or quick answers, he stressed, and never in a practical joke. Creative inclinations Since he was “knee high to a grass hopper,” Stewart has enjoyed expressing himself through art. He studied at two art schools in Detroit and at the University of Nebraska. Until Stewart came to IPFW two years ago, he was self-employed and worked for local businesses in interior design. “I would do everything from toilet paper holders to cupboards,” he explained. Fashion runs the roost in interior design, he stated. “Everything works in a cycle,” he believes. “Today’s contemporary furniture is the 1930’s plump stuff … something to sink out of sight in.” Stewart’s own home is his personal tribute to two of his favorite pastimes: design and humor. Yellow walls brace the clash between a hot pink ceiling and a bright red carpet. A mural of a big eyeball follows the spectator around the room in a Mona Lisa-like trance. Campus responsibilities As a member of the LRC’s creative staff, Stewart is responsible for artwork and graphics, display cases, hand lettering, and special effects. Although he still does a bit of consulting work outside of the university, he is glad to be out of the retail business. “I have fun with my work,” he commented. His work is also his play. He enjoys not only participating but appreciating art. He feels “modern art is more oppressive than the more traditional.” Modern society with all its depressive input may be the cause for this, he reasons. Although much of Stewart’s work is not the obvious oil painting in a gilded frame, it is visible in a much more subtle, yet comforting, sense. He gave the following example: An Indianapolis insurance company caters to a somewhat geriatric clientele. The three flights of steep and cumbersome stairs tended to keep them away from those needed services. Stewart stepped in and designed directional lines in pleasant colors to make the stairs look lower and wider. But did this creative deception work? Obviously it did, for the staid top brass of the company bounded the stairs one morning and later reported to Stewart, “I almost walked up to the garret!” Spotlight on Staff is a regular INTERCOM feature and appears in each issue. Mel Stewart SACS serves not only students, but faculty as well Dealing with life’s little annoyances puts the pressure on most people. On this campus, helping students and faculty cope with those daily doldrums and other problems, is the Student Academic Counseling Service. (SACS). As described by Director Donna Worthley, the services of SACS are threefold: “The primary function is to meet the academic, social and developmental needs of all students attending IPFW who have not yet chosen an academic major,” she outlined. “We also counsel the academic orphans (majors in management, allied health, and nursing) and do personal counseling.” The staff itself consists of Worthley, as Director, two counselors, Julie Fellars and Terry Johnson-Chambers, and eight student assistants. The students, as paraprofessionals, are chosen on the basis of application and personal interview. After a twelve-week summer training course, they are able to provide a listening ear as intake counselors. A name change this summer helped to more clearly define the role of SACS. Previously called Student Developmental Services, the new title of Student Academic Counseling Services places the emphasis on counseling. In addition to the number of assignees to SACS, much of their work load comes from referrals. “The greatest amount of referrals come from the faculty,” said Worthley, “also, from word of mouth.” “We’re here not only to help students, but as a resource for faculty and administrative staff as well,” Worthley continued. She views the most exciting function of SACS’s job as “that feeling a new student gets of feeling helped - the untangling.” “It is great knowing that the person walked into our office not knowing where he was going and left knowing how to find out,” she commented. “We’re in the business of helping the students learn the process of decision making,” she continued. That commitment to unwinding the academic red tape is a large one, but SACS’s new name reflects a belief in accomplishing that challenge. Gives a Helping Hand -- When students need a bit of advice about their college careers or personal life, Student Academic Counseling Service is there to help. The counseling services are also available for faculty and staff. Above -- Elementary education major (IU) Diana Lester discusses her educational program with Donna Worthley, Director of Student Academic Counseling Services. Sunderman’s travels greatly extend his teaching resources MICROSCOPIC MIRACLE -- Dr. Jack Sunderman had the opportunity to analyze, firsthand, the ash from Mt. Saint Helens this summer at the Indiana University Geologic Field Station. Dust from the Washington State site blew as far east as the Montana location. Focus on Faculty If Dr. Jack Sunderman, Associate professor of Geology, were to write one of those schoolboy’s papers on “How I Spent My Summer Vacation,” it would certainly not be dull. Sunderman traveled three times to the western United States: to a Petroleum Geologists Convention in Denver; to the Indiana University Geologic Field Station in Montana; and to Los Angeles for a College Faculty Conference on Depositional Systems at the University of Southern California. Sunderman, who has a B.S. from Purdue University, an M.S from University of Michigan, and a Ph.D. from Indiana University, teaches economic geology, the study of the origin of economically useable materials such as oil. Knowledge eruption One of the more interesting facets of Sunderman’s research this summer is his collection of ash from the Mt. Saint Helens volcano. Although he did not actually visit the Washington State site, the massive blanket of ash blew as far east as the IU Field Station in Montana where he was able to collect samples. As one of several instructors to two groups of 70 students at the Field station, Sunderman had the scientific pleasure of examining first-hand the quarter-inch of gritty, flour-like ash left on the Montana mountains. The four-hour eruption on May 18 spewed forth two kinds of ash, he explained. A course sand-like ash resulted from the volcano literally blowing itself apart, while the more fine lava was blown to bits. Hoosier comprehension of the event is garbled, but effects were widespread on the West Coast, Sunderman believes. “This is the largest historic eruption in the United States history,” he stated. “In the Cascade Range, we (geologists) can say for sure it will happen again.” A similar prehistoric eruption in Oregon gave us today’s Crater Lake. While in Los Angeles, Sunderman studied another phenomenon of the Pacific margin, the San Andreas fault. He explained that the volcano eruption and the fault line are distantly related. “The same processes of continental collision for the San Andreas fault are also producing the volcanic eruption,” he stated. “The reason for these things happening is the North American continent and the Pacific floor are colliding … the heat in the center of the earth is causing it to ‘boil’.” Local geologic research Despite the obvious lack of mountains and oceans in Indiana, the Fort Wayne area is teaming with geologic wonders. Sunderman’s research on ancient volcanic ash is taking place in local rock quarries. There ash dust is compressed into a clay layer. The evidence “must have meant tremendous volcanic activity” about 350 million years ago in the Appalachian deposit, said Sunderman. He is also studying ancient reefs which contain fossils in the open porous rock material. Major oil and gas deposits have been found in a famous reef around the Wabash River. As a camera buff, Sunderman has captured his work on 2,000 to 3,000 slides for use in the classroom. “It is a definite advantage to have research on slides,” he believes. “My photographic work is essentially field-oriented, although I have done some photo micrography.” That process enables Sunderman to shoot into a microscope. For a recent Indiana-Purdue Reports for Channel 15 and Channel 10, Sunderman displayed a polarized shot of the Mt. Saint Helens ash. Sunderman and his wife, Jeanette, have five children, ages 17 to 26. At their home on the northeast side of the city, he enjoys gardening. He is also a member of the St. Joe United Methodist Church, where he sings in the choir. “Focus on Faculty” is a regular feature of INTERCOM and appears in each issue. RAP program caters to needs of nontraditional students Imagine, if you will, your first day of college. September’s golden sky frames the scene, idyllic and restful, with chimes ringing and ivy-covered buildings outlining the campus horizon. Your heart is all immersed in that collegiate feeling, aflutter with the fear that your first professor will give The Bible, The Aeneid, and all of Shakespeare for the week’s reading assignment. Sounds like a bit of plastic puff right off the cover of Seventeen? The way it was is certainly not the way it is. At IPFW, the average student age is 25, a far cry from that just-out-of-school 18-year-old. And the Returning Adult Placement program, sponsored by the Department of Transitional studies with counseling assistant from other areas, caters to the needs of that nontraditional student. Now in its third year, RAP is a program designed to “make the adjustment for success in college,” said Dr. Michael O’Hear, Transitional Studies. Four full-time staffers and 14 part-time people are available for that older student who needs a quick trip through the red tape, counseling or just a shoulder to cry on. These students range in age from 19 to 60. Much of the substance of the program is focused around the Developmental Skills Center in Kettler Hall, Room 118, and the monthly programming, said Vallie Pherson, Transitional Studies. On the first Wednesday of each month, students may encounter such topics as anxiety reduction, assertiveness training, studying for finals and problem solving. A Welcome Day, held in early September, hosted 68 persons and beat the previous year’s record by 19. A newsletter is distributed to students each month to alert them to RAP possibilities. Only fear is fear itself What anxieties do these older students portray? “They feel, universally, that they do not fit in,” said Pherson. “That is not a reality factor, but a fear factor.” O’Hear discussed the problems many students had in settling realistic goals. “Students do not always know that they want,” he stated. “We can help them search out reasonable goals.” The success ratio is obviously not easily assessed, however, O’Hear and Pherson explained that the numbers of students interested has greatly increased over the past two years.

Transcript | Intercom IPFW New building will house Medical School When the new classroom, laboratory and office building (Building “D”) opens sometime next Fall, IPFW will play host to medical students for the first time. Dr. Steven C. Beering, Dean of the Indiana University School of Medicine, middle, met recently with Fort Wayne Center for Medical Education officials, including Dr. Frank Bryan (left), Director of the Fort Wayne Center for Medical Education, and Dr. Barth H. Ragatz (right), Associate Director. While in town, Dr. Beering spoke at a meeting of the Fort Wayne Medical Society. In this issue September 24, 1980 A feature story outlines the career of James E. Thatcher, who is leaving IPFW to accept a position at St. Joseph’s College in Renssalaer, Indiana. Providing a real service to the university community is the Student Academic Counseling area. A story inside explains further. Intercom IPFW IPFW “major growth factor” in Thatcher career When the North Central Accreditation Committee released its report on IPFW last spring, particular notice was given to the sound fiscal management of the university. Perhaps the accolades need be directed to James E. Thatcher, Vice Chancellor for Financial Affairs. Thatcher, who is leaving IPFW to assume the position of Vice President for Business Affairs and Treasurer at St. Joseph's College, has been an administrator on this campus since 1974. He jumped on the Purdue bandwagon in 1961 after graduation from Ball State University. At the West Lafayette campus, he served in various auditing and business positions with different departments. At college graduation he was faced with the choice of a job with Purdue or the Internal Revenue Service. But after four years in the collegiate atmosphere, he figured that a "behind the scenes" look at Purdue might be interesting. That "behind the scenes" look became "behind the scenes" involvement as Thatcher progressed into more management responsibility, culminating in his position on this campus as Vice Chancellor in 1975. Management methodology Thatcher believes there is "no difference in the management climate" between a profit versus a service organization. "All organizations are made up of people," he explained. "It is my job to utilize their maximum potential.'' In making the most out of a person's abilities, Thatcher outlined the theory of "executive stretch." Motioning with his hands, he explained, "If an executive has potential to a certain height and does not meet up to standard, then this is executive waste." Extending this executive potential then, is how Thatcher views his role. On the home front “The rapport between the financial operation and the faculty on this campus has been a real plus factor,” said Thatcher. "The people here are just super." He cited the establishment of the Clerical and Service Staff Advisory Committee as his greatest accomplishment at IPFW. "The committee functioned very well. It had a wide-open healthy atmosphere," he believes. “I was able to serve as the eyes and ears from the administration and I enjoyed that role." New assignment At St. Joseph's, Thatcher will be in charge of financial and planning operations. The college is a Catholic-affiliated liberal arts and business school located about 20 miles from Thatcher's home on Lake Shafer. As Vice President for Business Affairs and Treasurer, Thatcher will supervise a staff of 100 and work hand-in-hand with the Board of Trustees. Living at their lake home, Thatcher's family will be able to continue their enjoyment of water sports. "The whole family loves skiing," he stated, referring to his wife, Connie, and two daughters, Tammy and Tracie. Connie is musically-gifted and has participated in many opera workshops. Oldest daughter Tammy is an IPFW sophomore, while Tracie is a junior at R. Nelson Snider High School. FORTE IS MANAGEMENT -- James E. Thatcher, Vice Chancellor for Financial Affairs, is leaving IPFW to accept a position at St. Joseph’s College. This new position will continue a career steeped in management. Thatcher has been with the "business side" of Purdue since 1961. He has been with IPFW since 1974. Above -- Thatcher enjoys a joke with a former boss at the IPFW Foundation, Purdue Executive Vice President and Treasurer Fred Ford.

Ruth Swank Robert Palevich Shares Foundation thoughts Chancellor’s message Each September, on the third Tuesday, the Indiana-Purdue Foundation holds a public meeting in the Walb Memorial Union Ballroom. I thought it might be appropriate to recognize the important role the Foundation has played and continues to play in IPFW’s development by reproducing in Intercom, for your information, my remarks to the Foundation during the annual meeting last week. Before I do that, however, perhaps I should explain to those who are new to IPFW a little about the Indiana-Purdue Foundation. It was originally formed when Indiana University, Purdue University, and Fort Wayne leaders joined their efforts in 1958 to develop the concept for a unique educational venture. With the help of the Foundation, this concept culminated in the creation of events including the purchase of the original tract of land for the campus in 1958, the approval of building plans in 1961, ground breaking for Kettler Hall in 1962, and classes officially beginning in 1964. Since that time, the Foundation has continued to support the campus in a variety of ways, such as, to cite one example, the purchase of library materials each year. Remarks to the Indiana-Purdue Foundation “It has been a year since the Indiana-Purdue Foundation last met at IPFW. It is always an honor and privilege to have you here with us, since it was under the auspices of the Indiana-Purdue Foundation that the campus was first established in 1964. “IPFW today is the historical culmination of the ideas, efforts, and resources of an enduring and rather unique collaboration between IPFW’s faculty, its students, its alumni and friends, the Indiana-Purdue Foundation and the citizens of Fort Wayne and the State of Indiana. The members of this dynamic partnership have every reason to be proud of the result. Your vision has brought to reality a special idea, the idea of distinction in a large community-oriented public university. This idea was given substance by the continuing commitment of the two university systems and their supporters to participate in this exciting and exacting intellectual voyage toward excellence in teaching and scholarship. “As I commented at our Fall Convocation, the coming together of two administrative systems and two faculties at one institution has been well-paced. Rather than being pressed together like two continental plates along a San Andreas fault, the two have joined like separate rivers, naturally finding their way into the same riverbed. Understandably, there have been a few whirlpools caused by conflicting currents, but the overall flow has always been in the same direction: toward the goal of providing the people we serve with the opportunity to obtain an education of the highest quality. “An honest skepticism about our own efforts has been a constant traveling companionship that has helped us recognize our shortcomings, adapt to changing times, and thus retain our position in the world of education. In the coming decades, we will be challenged to find new ways to sustain IPFW materially and intellectually. We must commit resources sufficient to attract to IPFW talent of quality -- both as students and as professors. “It is not ordained that universities and their faculties be always richly endowed, but nor should they be relegated to a life of genteel poverty. Resources consistent with their role and mission are an absolute necessity. We rely on our partners in education to guide us in the appropriate ways to use our precious resources and to help us see what our priorities should be. “Now that I am a veteran of one year at IPFW, I can understand and appreciate more fully the role the Foundation has played in making IPFW what it is today. I applaud the men and women who made this possible and look forward to our continuing partnership in helping IPFW reach its full potential in the future.” - Chancellor Joseph P. Giusti. Faculty activities spark semester opening Around IPFW Professor Wen-Hui Tsai presented a paper entitled, “Social Change in Taiwan Under the Impact of Industrialization” at the 4th annual convention of the Chinese Academic Association in Mid-America August 29-31 in the Pick Congress Hotel in Chicago.

Shown engrossed in Foundation business, above, include: Jack Stark, Alfred Kettler, Sr., Walter Helmke and Harriet Inskeep. LRC Graphics Artist has literally “painted the town” for years Spotlight on Staff Lem Trawets was always a real card. As a pilot in the United States Air Force, he drew cartoons for his post newspaper, frequently hazing his superiors. The officers found it difficult to point a blaming finger, as there was no soldier named Lem Trawets. The man behind the mysterious moniker was none other than Mel Stewart, Lem Trawets backwards. Stewart a k a Trawets is still joking around. As Graphics Artist in the Learning Resource Center, Stewart has channeled his good humor in many directions. Even the Chancellor has been a Stewart caricature. The Giusti likeness entertains visitors in his paneled office, and states “someday we’re going to get organized around here.” “I like to needle,” stated the good-natured artist, “and I like for people to needle back.” His jests, however, come in the form of art or quick answers, he stressed, and never in a practical joke. Creative inclinations Since he was “knee high to a grass hopper,” Stewart has enjoyed expressing himself through art. He studied at two art schools in Detroit and at the University of Nebraska. Until Stewart came to IPFW two years ago, he was self-employed and worked for local businesses in interior design. “I would do everything from toilet paper holders to cupboards,” he explained. Fashion runs the roost in interior design, he stated. “Everything works in a cycle,” he believes. “Today’s contemporary furniture is the 1930’s plump stuff … something to sink out of sight in.” Stewart’s own home is his personal tribute to two of his favorite pastimes: design and humor. Yellow walls brace the clash between a hot pink ceiling and a bright red carpet. A mural of a big eyeball follows the spectator around the room in a Mona Lisa-like trance. Campus responsibilities As a member of the LRC’s creative staff, Stewart is responsible for artwork and graphics, display cases, hand lettering, and special effects. Although he still does a bit of consulting work outside of the university, he is glad to be out of the retail business. “I have fun with my work,” he commented. His work is also his play. He enjoys not only participating but appreciating art. He feels “modern art is more oppressive than the more traditional.” Modern society with all its depressive input may be the cause for this, he reasons. Although much of Stewart’s work is not the obvious oil painting in a gilded frame, it is visible in a much more subtle, yet comforting, sense. He gave the following example: An Indianapolis insurance company caters to a somewhat geriatric clientele. The three flights of steep and cumbersome stairs tended to keep them away from those needed services. Stewart stepped in and designed directional lines in pleasant colors to make the stairs look lower and wider. But did this creative deception work? Obviously it did, for the staid top brass of the company bounded the stairs one morning and later reported to Stewart, “I almost walked up to the garret!” Spotlight on Staff is a regular INTERCOM feature and appears in each issue. Mel Stewart SACS serves not only students, but faculty as well Dealing with life’s little annoyances puts the pressure on most people. On this campus, helping students and faculty cope with those daily doldrums and other problems, is the Student Academic Counseling Service. (SACS). As described by Director Donna Worthley, the services of SACS are threefold: “The primary function is to meet the academic, social and developmental needs of all students attending IPFW who have not yet chosen an academic major,” she outlined. “We also counsel the academic orphans (majors in management, allied health, and nursing) and do personal counseling.” The staff itself consists of Worthley, as Director, two counselors, Julie Fellars and Terry Johnson-Chambers, and eight student assistants. The students, as paraprofessionals, are chosen on the basis of application and personal interview. After a twelve-week summer training course, they are able to provide a listening ear as intake counselors. A name change this summer helped to more clearly define the role of SACS. Previously called Student Developmental Services, the new title of Student Academic Counseling Services places the emphasis on counseling. In addition to the number of assignees to SACS, much of their work load comes from referrals. “The greatest amount of referrals come from the faculty,” said Worthley, “also, from word of mouth.” “We’re here not only to help students, but as a resource for faculty and administrative staff as well,” Worthley continued. She views the most exciting function of SACS’s job as “that feeling a new student gets of feeling helped - the untangling.” “It is great knowing that the person walked into our office not knowing where he was going and left knowing how to find out,” she commented. “We’re in the business of helping the students learn the process of decision making,” she continued. That commitment to unwinding the academic red tape is a large one, but SACS’s new name reflects a belief in accomplishing that challenge. Gives a Helping Hand -- When students need a bit of advice about their college careers or personal life, Student Academic Counseling Service is there to help. The counseling services are also available for faculty and staff.

Sunderman’s travels greatly extend his teaching resources MICROSCOPIC MIRACLE -- Dr. Jack Sunderman had the opportunity to analyze, firsthand, the ash from Mt. Saint Helens this summer at the Indiana University Geologic Field Station. Dust from the Washington State site blew as far east as the Montana location. Focus on Faculty If Dr. Jack Sunderman, Associate professor of Geology, were to write one of those schoolboy’s papers on “How I Spent My Summer Vacation,” it would certainly not be dull. Sunderman traveled three times to the western United States: to a Petroleum Geologists Convention in Denver; to the Indiana University Geologic Field Station in Montana; and to Los Angeles for a College Faculty Conference on Depositional Systems at the University of Southern California. Sunderman, who has a B.S. from Purdue University, an M.S from University of Michigan, and a Ph.D. from Indiana University, teaches economic geology, the study of the origin of economically useable materials such as oil. Knowledge eruption One of the more interesting facets of Sunderman’s research this summer is his collection of ash from the Mt. Saint Helens volcano. Although he did not actually visit the Washington State site, the massive blanket of ash blew as far east as the IU Field Station in Montana where he was able to collect samples. As one of several instructors to two groups of 70 students at the Field station, Sunderman had the scientific pleasure of examining first-hand the quarter-inch of gritty, flour-like ash left on the Montana mountains. The four-hour eruption on May 18 spewed forth two kinds of ash, he explained. A course sand-like ash resulted from the volcano literally blowing itself apart, while the more fine lava was blown to bits. Hoosier comprehension of the event is garbled, but effects were widespread on the West Coast, Sunderman believes. “This is the largest historic eruption in the United States history,” he stated. “In the Cascade Range, we (geologists) can say for sure it will happen again.” A similar prehistoric eruption in Oregon gave us today’s Crater Lake. While in Los Angeles, Sunderman studied another phenomenon of the Pacific margin, the San Andreas fault. He explained that the volcano eruption and the fault line are distantly related. “The same processes of continental collision for the San Andreas fault are also producing the volcanic eruption,” he stated. “The reason for these things happening is the North American continent and the Pacific floor are colliding … the heat in the center of the earth is causing it to ‘boil’.” Local geologic research Despite the obvious lack of mountains and oceans in Indiana, the Fort Wayne area is teaming with geologic wonders. Sunderman’s research on ancient volcanic ash is taking place in local rock quarries. There ash dust is compressed into a clay layer. The evidence “must have meant tremendous volcanic activity” about 350 million years ago in the Appalachian deposit, said Sunderman. He is also studying ancient reefs which contain fossils in the open porous rock material. Major oil and gas deposits have been found in a famous reef around the Wabash River. As a camera buff, Sunderman has captured his work on 2,000 to 3,000 slides for use in the classroom. “It is a definite advantage to have research on slides,” he believes. “My photographic work is essentially field-oriented, although I have done some photo micrography.” That process enables Sunderman to shoot into a microscope. For a recent Indiana-Purdue Reports for Channel 15 and Channel 10, Sunderman displayed a polarized shot of the Mt. Saint Helens ash. Sunderman and his wife, Jeanette, have five children, ages 17 to 26. At their home on the northeast side of the city, he enjoys gardening. He is also a member of the St. Joe United Methodist Church, where he sings in the choir. “Focus on Faculty” is a regular feature of INTERCOM and appears in each issue. RAP program caters to needs of nontraditional students Imagine, if you will, your first day of college. September’s golden sky frames the scene, idyllic and restful, with chimes ringing and ivy-covered buildings outlining the campus horizon. Your heart is all immersed in that collegiate feeling, aflutter with the fear that your first professor will give The Bible, The Aeneid, and all of Shakespeare for the week’s reading assignment. Sounds like a bit of plastic puff right off the cover of Seventeen? The way it was is certainly not the way it is. At IPFW, the average student age is 25, a far cry from that just-out-of-school 18-year-old. And the Returning Adult Placement program, sponsored by the Department of Transitional studies with counseling assistant from other areas, caters to the needs of that nontraditional student. Now in its third year, RAP is a program designed to “make the adjustment for success in college,” said Dr. Michael O’Hear, Transitional Studies. Four full-time staffers and 14 part-time people are available for that older student who needs a quick trip through the red tape, counseling or just a shoulder to cry on. These students range in age from 19 to 60. Much of the substance of the program is focused around the Developmental Skills Center in Kettler Hall, Room 118, and the monthly programming, said Vallie Pherson, Transitional Studies. On the first Wednesday of each month, students may encounter such topics as anxiety reduction, assertiveness training, studying for finals and problem solving. A Welcome Day, held in early September, hosted 68 persons and beat the previous year’s record by 19. A newsletter is distributed to students each month to alert them to RAP possibilities. Only fear is fear itself What anxieties do these older students portray? “They feel, universally, that they do not fit in,” said Pherson. “That is not a reality factor, but a fear factor.” O’Hear discussed the problems many students had in settling realistic goals. “Students do not always know that they want,” he stated. “We can help them search out reasonable goals.” The success ratio is obviously not easily assessed, however, O’Hear and Pherson explained that the numbers of students interested has greatly increased over the past two years.
