Progress reported for
'82-83 edition of TO TEM
By SIIEIXIE WARREN
The 1982-83 issue of the
TOTEM McMurry's yearbook
promises to be full of surprises.
Dawn Mathews editor of the
TOTEM says "We are very
excited about this year's TOTEM.
It is definitely better than last
years'. We arc most proud of our
color section and the theme we
have chosen. The theme is intro-
duced on the first page and is
carried through on the division
pages and on the last page. It will
be a very classy yearbook!"
The TOTEM has not yet been
completed. It will be finished and
sent in immediately after gradua-
tion. The yearbooks are usually
shipped back in the early Fall.
Posters and "word-of-mouth"
will spread the news easily
enough when the yearbooks
arrive. When the TOTEM docs

improvement.
"We intend to revise the
newsletter set up special com-
mittees for the students' involve-
ment work on a great Home-
coming and make the whole year
exciting! We will also work on the
attendance at sports activities and
other college events. The major
emphasis will be on quality and
not quantity."
"We also hope to work on
recruiting students to bring on
revenue and push towards getting
a swimming pool. We will conti-

Registration
Registration for May Term
1983 continues through May 11
the day classes for this three-
week mini-term begin.
Following pre-registration two
weeks ago all 19 classes are still
planning to be offered and three
have already filled up.
Bill Hadley's "Nutrition in
Athletics" Jackie Stowe's
"Starting and Managing a Small
Business" and Ann Cook's
"Phonics First" classes have all
reached their maximum enroll-
ment. Courses which do not receive
enough enrollees must be can-
celled Dean Paul Jungmeyer
explained. But so far the ax has
not fallen on any course. Some
courses could be withdrawn from
the offerings later this month If
enrollment in them doesn't in-
crease. All May Term courses are
three-hour courses and many
count toward major subjects and
teaching field areas. Others may
was a tradition at McMurry which
was resurrected last spring.
Individual students were recog-
nized by division and department
chairpersons during the morning
program. Dr. Paul C. Jungmeyer
academic dean of McMurry was
coordenator of the program.
The awards and the students
arrive students must come to the
TOTEM office show their stu-
dent I.D. card sign for them and
pick one up. Seniors who will not
be in Abilene in the Fall may
have a friend pick one up for
them or may leave a forwarding
address and the TOTEM will be
mailed to them.
Dawn Mathews comments that
really the biggest problem that
they faced putting this year's
TOTEM together was their lack
of photographers.
Mathews also comments that
the hardest part about her job is
the fact that she is both the editor
of the entire book and is also a
section editor. "It can get to be a
pretty heavy load to carry!"
There are rewards for working
on the staff. "You get to meet so
many new people. I feel like I
know everyone on campus or at
from
set up more activities with HSU
and ACU."
Bynum feels that the whole
atmosphere will be different next
year. "Dave and I arc two
different people. Dave hus done a
good job. Becky has worked hard;
Brian Biggs and Mark Hayncs
have done a great job and so
have all the senators. Dave has
been especially helpful in the
transition of offices."
Bynum stresses over and over
as other MSG presidents have in
the past "If anyone at any time
has a question or an idea or a

least know their face. It's fun
working with everyone; One of
the best parts about being on the
TOTEM is when we finish It. It's
a wonderful feeling of relief. Then
comes the feeling of satisfaction
when the students respond well to
our efforts" Mathews says.
Looking ahead toward the
1983-84 issue of the TOTEM
Mathews comments that there
will be more organization in their
work and more people on the
staff. They plan to make a
"sophisticated record of 1983-
84." The staff for this year's

Besides being the new MSG
president Bynum is president of
the Hunt Hall Council president
of the Fellowship of Christian
Athletes and is intramural repre-
sentative for IHR.
He is a personal management
major and mass communications
minor. He has worked this year as
a sports caster for KTXS-TV.
Bynum's hometown is Junc-
tion. He likes to swim play
tennis listen to people and loves
working with people.
He hopes his greatest accom-
plishment as MSG president will
be to have represented the stu-
dents the way they wanted him
to. Years from now Bynum still
wants to be remembered as the
one with a smile his willingness
to always listen and for his great
love of McMurry.
