THE 
Harder resigns to go to Columbia UC 
Dr. Fred 
L. Harder, 
Vice-
President for Financial Affairs at 
Union College, 
announced 
his 
resignation last Tuesday, April 
15, in a letter to the college 
president. 
Harder was offered 
and has accepted the position of 
Vice-president for Finance for 
Columbia Union College in Wa-
shington, D.C. , 
"After four enjoyable years at 
Union College, I feel it is time for 
a change," explained 
Harder. 
Columbia Union College is one of 
the eleven Adventist colleges and 
Universities in North America. 
"Dr. Harder's concern for the 
recent financial restraints facing 
Union College and his cooperative 
effort in helping 
to 
discover 
Loma Linda Univ. Med 
School accepts eight 
from Union 
Eight of the nine Union 
College 
students 
and 
gra-
duates who applied to Loma 
Linda 
University 
Medical 
School have been accepted for 
the term beginning August 
1986. 
According to Dr. Richard 
McCluskey, 
Vice-President/ 
Dean, the number of students 
accepted this year is typical of 
the high medical school accep: 
tance rate for Union College 
graduates. 
This year's list of accepted 
students and their undergra-
duate majors: Alison Blythe, 
'86, Biology; Laronna Colbert, 
'85, Chemistry; Brent Crouse, 
'86, Chemistry; Ronald Hart, 
'85 Biology; Birgit Hausted, 
'85, Biology; Randy Hausted, 
'84, Biology; Steve McFee, 
'86, Biology; Dan 
Sanchez, 
'86, Theology. 
solutions have been much appre-
ciated 
by 
me," 
said 
Interim 
President Myrl Manley. "He has 
worked many tedious but cheerful 
hours with the administration and 
faculty to formulate a balanced 
budget for the 1986-87 school 
year." 
Harder has participated in sev-
eral major projects during his 
tenure 
at 
Union. 
He 
was 
instrirmental in both the library 
and Union • Manor building pro-
jects and assisted in cutting the 
college's budget by $2 million 
during the last two years. 
"I 
have been able to watch Union 
College turn the corner financially 
and I think the future is bright for 
this institution,", said Harder. 
After spending three years as 
the chairman of Union's business 
division, Harder left in 1981 to 
spend one year at Walla Walla 
College 
in 
Washington. 
He 
returned to Union College in 1982 
to take up his present duties. His 
resignation is effective on May 
31, 1986. 
Mrs. Virginia Harder is pre-
sently employed as the office 
manager for the college's Admis-
sions Office. "Her expertise and 
friendliness will be missed by 
both staff and students," Manley 
said. 
Manley said the college's Board 
of Directors will be giving study 
to a replacement for Harder at its 
April 23 meeting.

Yearlook '86 to be shown this Sat. night 
How would you like to see your 
face on the big screen? Chances 
are you can if you go to Yearlook 
'86! 
by Brian Havelka 
The students of Union will once 
again be treated to a multi-media 
presentation of the school year in 
pictures. 
This year's 
show, 
entitled Yearlook '86, is funded 
by the ASB and has become 
somewhat of a tradition here at 
the college. But this year's show 
does have some unique features. 
First, instead of there being 
just two producers like last year's 
show, 
Yearlook 
'86 
is 
being 
assembled by the whole Media 
Productions class. The project is 
being overseen and directed by 
Fred Knopper, the instructor for 
the class. 
Dan Huisman is the 
show's 
producer 
with 
Brenda 
Carnahan assistant producer. 
Every student in the class is 
actively participating in^ the pro-
duction of Yearlook V86. 
This 
year's show will have a wider 
range of students pictured, ac-
cording 
to 
Janet 
Mullet, 
Yearlook's director of photograph-
y-
Unlike last year's show, which 
had only about eight photogra-
phers, this year's show has over 
twenty-five photographers. 
Mul-
let mentioned that some of the 
pictures for Yearlook '86 will 
come directly from pictures in the 
Golden Cord yearbook. The show 
will highlight the main events of 
four areas: religion, sports, aca-
demics, and social activities. This 
year's show will even include 
some pictures of the faculty. 
Yearlook '86 will be a three 
projector multi-media 
presenta-. 
tion which will be approximately 
forty minutes long and consist of 
over five-hundred slides. 
The 
show will have a soundtrack that 
-Avill include music for a wide 
range of musical tastes. 
It will 
include everything from instru-
mental numbers to recent top 
forty hits. 
It is highly recommended that 
you mark your calendar for April 
26—an event no student should 
miss! Watch for posters announc-
ing for the show.

Opinions 
Editorial: 
"A friend is worth your time" Proverbs (something) 
I sit at my desk writing out 
graduation invitations and an-
nouncements and everything that I 
have wanted to accomplish over 
the last five years suddenly floods 
my mind and I have no choice but 
to stop. I lean back ifi my chair and 
try to make sense out of the confu-
sion of thoughts and return to my 
task. 
It turns out after sorting through 
the jumbled mass of memories that 
if I had not done everything the 
way I have, I might not have met 
the people that I did; experience 
life the way I have; accomplished 
the goals that I set out for me. 
If anything, I would have push-
ed myself harder on the books to 
make the grades that I know I 
could have made. I would have 
pushed myself harder on the foot-
ball field, softball diamond, soccer 
pitch, volleyball court to improved 
as much as I could. 
Foremost of all the regrets 
would be the time that I could have 
spent with friends and elected not 
to. If there is anything to change, it 
would be in altering the past to 
take more time to spend with those 
that I will be friends with for the 
rest of my life. How could I go 
wrong with that? 
Letters 
My advice to freshmen (and 
anybody else) is to take the time to 
really get to know your friends-
nothing surface; don't settle for it. 
Don't be content to let them ar-
range things for you to do or mere-
ly hang with the fringe of the 
group. Be in the center and work 
to make the friendships enduring 
and endearing. 
I suppose sometimes studies and 
work may get in the way of what 
you would rather do, be it with 
friends or not. But never let 
homework befcome an excuse for 
your non-association with friends. 
My sympathies to anyone who uses 
it as an excuse. Take it from so-
meone who has gone through more 
than a few years through the 
system and has learned from his 
mistakes. (Also, take the time and 
tell your friends that you have 
more than appreciation for them.) 
I guess I don't need to say 
anymore. If you can't get what I'm 
in the above paragraphs, then you 
need more than my inadequate 
prodding. Resolve to take action 
with your friends, now. Don't wait 
for them to make the move or wait 
until tomorrow to take action. 
Sometimes neither comes. And 
you lose both ways.

tunity of visiting this place. 
A few weeks ago, Krystal and I 
decided to become "bums" for a 
day. We tore up two shirts and I 
found a couple pair of my favorite 
jeans with rips and holes. Van-
style shoes in the same sad state 
as the jeans and headbands made 
our outfits complete. 
Virtually 
unrecognizable to our UC peers, 
we were off on our adventure. 
Leaving Union at a little before 
9 a.m., we trudged two and a half 
hours 
and 
one 
blister 
later 
(unfortunately on Krystal's foot) 
into the City Mission. 
Pleading 
for a band-aid and some food, we 
were welcomed with open arms 
and few questions. 
We were too early for lunch so 
we went through the clothing 
room looking for a pair of shoes 
that would relieve Krystal from 
anymore unnecessary pain. 
Our 
quest was unsuccessful. 
(Sadly, 
people seem to , donate only what 
they themselves can't bear to 
wear.) During this time, wejyere 
asked our names. Krystal smiled 
and gave her alias first and last 
name. I glared back at the lady 
and said; "My name's J.D. and I 
don't have a last namel" She just 
smiled in return. 
Lunch was not exactly a gour-
met's delight. Dark brown pizza 
and a few casseroles with vegetar-
ian beans, fetuccini, and anything 
else that might have been availa-
ble mixed in, stared back at us 
from our plates. 
We ate, not 
exactly with enthusiasm, 
each 
bite of food chased by a half of a 
glass of juice. 
Soon it was time to go, but not 
before we were offered shelter, 
counseling, or anything else we 
might need. 
The chaplain, a 
small man, was pleasant with a 
strong, yet gentle look in his eyes. 
A man that took his responsibility 
to clpthe and feed the needy 
seriously. He did not look at us 
like we were nameless transients 
bumming our way through this 
world, but like people equal to 
him. 
Instead of coming to our 
level, he brought us up to his. 
This man is the closest represen-
tative of Jesus Christ that I have 
every met. 
In sad surroundings 
he brings hope; to the alcoholic, 
runaway, or just plain bum, he 
gives whatever is needed. 
Krystal and I are going back to 
the City Mission this week. Not 
as bums, but as representatives of 
Union College. If there is anyone 
who 
would 
like 
to 
make 
a 
donation, please contact Krystal 
or myself in Rees Hall. Let's do 
our part. 
Sincerely, 
Carolin Clarin

Dear Union College Students: 
One of the neat things about 
teaching 
at Union College 
is 
"being warmed in spirit" by the 
many complimentary remarks that 
we hear from time to time by 
unbiased persons both inside and 
outside of the Lincoln community. 
Instead of keeping these com-
pliments paid to you, the students 
of Union College, on the "top 
military secret lift*," we have 
decided to share them with you. 
Are you ready for this? 
An employer called one day to 
ask if we had any more students 
like. " 
's work has been so 
good, her personality so pleasant, 
her dependability so sure, her in-
tegrity so impeccable, that we need 
someone else like her to work in 
our organization." 
This boss 
knows that UC College students 
are special! 
Recently 
a 
retired 
non-
Adventist banker living in Lincoln 
contacted us concerning a quanti-
tative and computer problem. He 
came to UC seeking assistance 
because he knows of the high 
quality of students attending this 
college. He was not disappoint-
ed! 
Several weeks ago a nationwide 
financial 
services 
organization 
contacted us about interviewing 
prospective 
graduates. 
Upon 
arriving on campus and before 
interviewing the students, the two 
interviewers commented to us 
about the high regard they had 
for 
UC 
grads. 
These 
two 
individuals are not Adventists, 
and they had formed good im-
pressions 
about 
UC and 
the 
students here. 
Ernst and Whinney, one of the 
Big Eight public accounting firms 
in the US contacted 
us and 
established a procedure where we 
would, each fall, send them a list 
of our outstanding 
accounting 
students as prospective emplo-
yees. 
Why 
Union 
College? 
Because they felt we have out-
standing 
students 
in' 
the 
accounting area.

Summer work program at Union 
Are you planning to work on 
campus this summer? Things will 
be a bit different so you should be 
Job Placement Office 
aware of the changes. 
You will bp' earning a higher 
wage! Since there will not be a 
summer bonus program, you will 
receive a higher wager per hour. 
You need to sit down with your 
work 
supervisor 
and 
plan 
a 
summer budget. 
Start with the 
credit you'll need when school 
begins ($1,100-1,200). Add room 
rent ($60/mo. double occupancy; 
$100/mo. single occupancy), ca-
feteria charges (approx. $400-500; 
meals will be a la carte as during 
school so you can figure your cafe 
charge will be about the same as 
one semester), and tithe. 
Then 
divide by the number of hours 
you'll be able to work (approx. 
450-500 hours). That will give the 
rate you need to earn. 
But, if 
your supervisor cannot pay you 
that much per hour, then you may 
need to work more hours (there 
are 14 weeks between graduation 
and the beginning of school). 
After you have agreed on a pay 
rate, you will need to sign a 
summer work contract with your 
supervisor. ( 
REMEMBER: 
1. Your summer pay rate will 
not be the same as the rate you 
receive during the school year. 
You are a full-time employee 
during the summer, have more 
responsibility and are of greater 
value to your employer.' 
2. You must be pre-registered 
for at least six hours for the fall 
semester. 
(If you will not be 
attending Union in the fall we 
cannot offer you summer work.) 
Plan early—there are a lot of 
people wanting summer work and 
when the jobs are 
filled...well, 
you know how it is!

An open letter from Dan Lynn, 
new music instructor 
As a recent appointee to the 
music faculty in both vocal and 
choral music, I would like to take 
this 
opportunity 
to 
introduce 
myself and to share some direc-
tions in which will be guiding you 
as we begin the 1986-87 school 
year. 
I want to say first that I am very 
well aquainted with 
Nebraska, 
having been born and raised in 
Kearney 
where 
my 
parents 
taught music for thirty-five years. 
I have a music education degree 
in trumpet 
from 
UNL and 
a 
master's degree in voice from 
Hartt School of Music in Hartford, 
Connecticutt, where I also taught 
junior and senior high vocal music 
for three years. 
It 
was also in 
Hartford that I became an Ad-
ventist Christian and my purpose 
in life took on an entirely new 
dimension. God has led me into 
extensive 
doctoral 
studies, 
an 
exciting marriage to a 
former 
Union 
College 
student, 
Beth 
Thacker, college teaching 
exper-
ience in Colorado, Oregon, and 
Montana, and most recently into 
parenthood with out six-month old 
daughter, Lauren 
Elizabeth. 
Now, Providence has led us 
back to Lincoln. 
It will be my 
first priority at Union to renew 
and emphasize the undergraduate 
student involvement in the choral 
and vocal music programs. 
I see myself as a 
servant-
leader, functioning in a musical 
environment to provide 
exper-
ience with which students can 
grow 
spritually, mentally, and 
emotionally. 
Music is, like all 
disciplines, essentially a means to 
the end result of knowing and 
understanding God and ourselves. 
I will strive to involve 
each 
student in using music to build 
and sustain spritiual 
relation-
ships within the classroom, the 
church, and the community 
in 
preparing ourselves and our world 
for the ultimate relationship with 
our God in heaven. 
My family and I are eagerly' 
looking forward to our 
relation-
ship with you. 
See you 
in 
August! 
In His love, 
Dan, Beth, and Lauren Eliza-
beth Lynn

Give them the gift of learning—an Apple* computer, the computer-of-choice among educators nationwide. And 
for good reason. Apple computers can teach students to teach themselves, preparing them for college or the world beyond. 
In fact, we think Apple computers are such valuable learning incentives, we'd like to give you an incentive to buy 
one for the students in your family—a cash rebate up to $200 with the purchase of an Apple computer from an authorized 
Apple Dealer between April 1 and June 30, 1986. 
It's called "Apple's Student Break." And all that's required is written verification of your student's full-time 
enrollment in a two- or four-year college or university. It could't be any easier than that Or any more worthwhile. See 
us today for further details.

Radovan 5, Freund 2 
Jerry Huether scored a hat trick for Radovan's team Monday night to 
help them beat Freund, 5-2. Radovan's team held first place for approx-
imately one hour until Kawamura disposed of Boaz in the final game of 
the season. Rick Craven, Freund's netminder, played a super game. He 
kicked out 18 first half-shots, and made 28 saves during the game. 
Radovan outshot Freund, 33-14, and tallied 3 times in the second half to 
break open a close game. Radovan led 2-1 at the half, with goals from 
Huether and Lauer. Davey Lauer tipped in a Tink Kittrell slap shot with 
six seconds left in the half to up Radovan 2-1. 
Dave Tenold scored his tenth and eleventh goals of the season to cap-
ture the goal scoring lead. His last goal came with 2:49 left in the game, 
and it was dandy. He scooped up the puck, with his back to the goal, 
spun to his forehand and snapped a rocket from 20 feet out past a 
sprawling goaltender. 
Kawamura 5, Boaz 2 
Steve Kawamura's team won the men's floor hockey title by defeating 
Boaz 5-2 Monday night. Kawamura's men outshot Boaz, 20-10. Arden 
Fowler led Kawamura's scoring attack with 3 goals. Steve Kawamura 
closed out the season \yith another solide performance in goals for his 
squad.

Softball 
Burgess 8, Johnson 2 
Fast-pitch softball kicked off the season Thursday night, with Gareth 
Burgess' team defeating Lauris Johnson's, 8-2. Michelle Hayes was the 
starting pitcher for Burgess. After a rocky first inning, she fell into a 
groove and mowed Johnson's team down for three innings. 
In the first, Lauris Johnson tripled to right center with runners on first 
and third. His 2 RBIs provided all the scoring punch that his team would 
have. Joe Parmele pitched the last three innings for Burgess. With one 
out in the sixth, Johnson's team loaded the bases. Their next hitter 
smacked a line drive to the second baseman, Devin Scott, who alertly ran 
to second for the unassisted double play. 
Sean Eubanks went the distance for Johnson's team. He pitched a fine 
game walking few and giving up only a handful of solid hits. Burgess' 
offensive attack was highlighted by Devin Scott's two run homer. Both 
catchers played superbly, Bryan Powers for Burgess and John 
Quintenillo for Johnson. 
Badminton 
Union recently held its annual badminton tournament two weeks ago. 
Twenty entrants began the double elimiation tourney. After 37 games, 
17 players had been eliminated. The final three players were Troy Beans, 
Cameron Shum and Michael Teale. 
Troy Beans and Cameron Shum squared off in the losers' bracket for 
the rights to play Teale in the championship. Cameron disposed of 
Beans and was then beaten by Teale. Teale was 5-0 during the tourne-
ment and Shum was 6-2.

Letters from ASB officers-elect 
Upon looking back on this year, 
I can honestly say that my first 
year 
at 
Union 
has 
been 
an 
enjoyable one. I think the-most 
important component of a great 
year is participation, whether it is 
in intramurals, social activities, 
nothing we can do to make the 
year exciting for you. 
A few of 
the events planned for next year 
which depend on your participa-
tion are talent shows, track and 
field days, spirit weeks, TV game 
show nights, road rallies, scavan-
"...talent shows, track and field days, spirit 
weeks, TV game show 
nights...." 
Joe Young 
spiritual activities or any other 
type of interaction with people. 
The kind of year you have is, 
more or less, up to you. 
We, next year's ASB officers, 
have a lot of fun things planned 
for next year. 
But without your 
enthusiasm and support, there is 
ger hunts, and skating parties. 
Any additional suggestions would 
be greatly appreciated. We want 
to plan the kind of activities that 
you, the students of Union, will 
enjoy and participate in. 
We are anticipating a great 
year next year, and your enthusi-
asm as 
an 
active 
Associated 
Student Body combined with the 
involvement of the faculty can 
make this goal attainable. To-
gether we can create a new school 
spirit here are Union which will 
last for many years to come. 
Sincerely, 
Joe Young 
ASB Vice-President 
for Student Activities Elect 
How are you? Extremely busy, 
I assume, with papers due and 
fianls coming up. 
Yes, this 
semester, 
this school year is 
almost over now. 
I am interested in your plans 
for next year. Of course, you will 
been things you would like to see 
happen, or things that could be 
improved? 
Well, you can do 
something about them. 
I would 
like you to seriously consider 
running for Senate next year. As 
a Senator, you could influence 
"Union is the best there is!" 
return to Union for another year 
of school. 
No question 
about 
that. Union is the best there is! 
But have you thought about how 
you could ge seriously involved on 
campus? 
Haven't 
there always 
ASB and college policies, directly 
address issues of concern to you 
and fellow students. So why not 
be an ASB Senator next year?! I 
am looking 
forward to working 
with you.

Two of us .were returning from 
a convention and were seated 
next to a very 
distinguished-
looking gentleman. 
When the 
introductions. were 
made 
and 
some verbal, exchanges took pla-
ce, this gentleman made this 
remark: 
"Union College is an 
excellent school, and you have a 
lot going for you." 
The man 
doing the speaking is the presi-
dent of one of our neighboring 
universities. 
Students, YOU are 
Union College! 
A proprietor from the Lincoln 
community was talking with two 
clients who were asking about 
Union College and what it was all 
about. 
The response from the 
proprietor was: 
"Union College 
is affiliated with the Seventh-day 
Adventists. It is an outstanding 
school with top- quality students. 
" 
We couldn't agree any more! 
A businesswoman hired a UC 
student to clean house for her. 
Her remarks regarding this stu-
dent were: 
"I will be very sad 
when she graduates. 
Not only 
has she been dependable, she has 
been thorough, and has done so 
many little extras for me. I shall 
miss her Christian attitude." 
The owner of one of our local 
"entertainment 
centers" 
was 
commenting on the UC students 
who had rented this establish-
ment for a party recently. 
He 
could not believe that our stu-
dents could have so much fun 
without several kegs of beer! 
"You must be doing something 
right to have young people like 
that at your school. We don't see 
that many decent ones around any 
more." 
We presently have seven recent 
Union College graduates or soon-
to-be graduated students hired by 
six of the Big Eight accounting. 
firms. 
One of our 
December 
graduates has just been informed 
that she passed all parts of the-
CPA exam. These kinds of facts 
reflect the quality of 
student 
represented at this school. 
One of our current students 
who had just had her purse with 
all her money and credit cards 
stolen was trying to rent a car on 
"credit" to get back to Lincoln. 
When she asked to ride to Lincoln 
with a couple 
she 
overheard 
renting a car to Lincoln, they 
looked at her as though she had 
lost her mind! 
But when she 
explained that she was trying to 
get back to Union College, lights 
went on everywhere. They could 
not quit talking about the fine-
quality students at Union College. 
Needless to say, she got her ride 
back to Lincoln! 
If you had wanted to read on 
longer, we could have 
added 
much more to this. The message 
is clear! The word is out: Union 
College students are tops! These 
remarks were unsolicited, unbia-
sed, unvarnished. We "told 'em 
as we heard 'em." 
In the words of the 
great 
philosopher, "You done good." 
Congratulations. We're proud of 
'you. 
Sincerely, 
The Teachers in the Diyision of 
Business and Computer Science
