PROLOGUE

In the Eye of a Tiger linger flashes of the past year. How you see yourself as a tiger is up to you. Perhaps, after
turning the pages of this book, you will know. The look is of you, the administration, the faculty, staff, and most of
all, the students.

This year's TIGER staff presents a broad overview of what's happening around the College by the Sea in the
unlimited phases of collegiate life. The staff has captured the glances of the rewarding and significant events that
took place on campus.

Located in one of the most scenic cities of the South, Savannah State College, in its 98th year of pride, progress
and excellence, has provided many students with the opportunity to take a new prospect of life with choice and
fulfillment.

Where there are people, there are events that need to be recorded. This is what the staff of the 1988 TIGER has
put forth every effort to do. The TIGER is a reminder of the enthusiasm, the feeling of nurture and growth, and
the wealth of excitement that encompass a college campus.

This year's TIGER, in our own eyes, is a reflection of the character, scholarship, activities, and leadership
demonstrated by the students at the College.

Each student is a part of this history of facts and pictures. As you turn the pages and see yourself in the eye of a ti-
ger, remember that the past is a prologue of the future.

OFFICE OF

THE PRESIDENT

Dear Students:

As your venerable alma mater approaches the eve of her 100th birthday,
surely she proudly counts you among her progeny. Your devotion,
contributions, and accomplishments reflected in entries in Tiger 1989, are
an outstanding tribute to her. Indeed, we who are the Savannah State College
community of administrators, faculty, staff, students and alumni are fortunate
to share these historic times which present to us crucial opportunities to
foster the sturdy advance of the College into the twenty-first century.

I applaud the Tiger staff for this laudable yearbook. Also, 1 congratulate
the students who will graduate this year. And to each and everyone of you,
I extend best wishes for continued success in pursuing your educational and
career goals.

Sincerely yours,

-&*& jd/3+t.M^

Mentors Program

Keith B. Wilson, Project Director for the
Mentors Program, states, "The basis of the
program is to help retain students with high
attrition variables, such as students who are
single parents, students in two or more re-
medial courses, athletes or students remedi-
ating for the Regents." The Mentors Pro-
gram sponsors two presentations each quar-
ter. One presentation is held off campus to
encourage cultural exposure for the stu-
dent. The aim is for the student and the
mentor to connect and bond, thus providing
the student with a support system.

Upward Bound

Upward Bound stresses the value of education
and self-respect by motivating high school stu-
dents to aspire for success in academics and in
LIFE. Upward Bound promotes the ideals of
honesty and service as well as leadership. It re-
wards meritorious achievement and encourages
students to continue their accomplishments.

Everyone vividly expresses the latest motto, "I
can't believe it from the cafe," as they eat a de-
lightful meal.

Phase II Talent Show

Phase II sponsored a talent show for
the student body. The show included
singing, dancing, acting, and playing

U.S. Senate

Senator Shumake announced a proposal to AFDC
recipients in which a small portion of their parents
monthly allowance would be deducted and kept in a

would enable the child to attend college. The gov-
ernment promised to match the family's savings.

"YOU CAN ALWAYS TELL A
SAVANNAH STATE STUDENT"

Learning Knowledge

Hailing from places such as Atlanta, Georgia, Miami, Florida, Chicago, Illinois,
Brooklyn, New York, St. Thomas, Virgin Islands, and Bahamas, each student at
SSC has a unique characteristic. With the continuous expansion of our resources,
this Institution thrives on academic excellence. Every student who has taken College
Algebra knows that it is no piece of cake. Also, every student knows he will sit in
front a computer during his college education. Because the students are eager to
learn all there is to know, sometimes the library is unsurprisingly full.

30 Student Life

Showing Off Fashions

It's understood that fashion is very important to students
here. The females wear long skirts and soft sweaters, while
the males prefer baggy to cropped pants with colorful printed
shirts. Both sexes wear turtle necks, acid-wash jeans, and the
biker shorts.

Student Life 31

Whether good or bad, the College has a reputation for its food
services. At breakfast, lunch, or dinner, everyone enjoys a nutrious
meal. Good times are shared in the dining hall, but sometimes
students have a craving for foods served at the Blue Note, Campus
Corner, Subway, Burger King, or even Ryan's Steakhouse. To
make sure they don't get too fat, there's always aerobics to keep
everyone in shape.

32 Student Life

Having Fun

After a week of doing calculus homework or cramming for that history test,
students are usually ready for the weekend. Things get started on Thursday
night at Club 220 West. Then on Friday and Saturday nights, the Old Gym
is the party place. Music can be heard for blocks as Randy T. mixes the
latest dance music. Every weekend, the crowd gets more pumped. After the
parties, the guys try their best to sweep the ladies off their feet and to
hypnotize them to forfeit the games people play. Students also engage in
frequent games of "Spades".

IN REMEMBRANCE OF

Dr. Michael K. Maker

1940-1988

Dr. Maher was born on December 23,
1 940 in Chicago, Illinois. He obtained
his Bachelor's Degree from Loras Col-
lege in Deblek, Iowa, and his Master's
Degree and Doctorate Degree in English
from the University of Georgia. He be-
gan teaching at the University of Geor-
gia, but later went on to teach high
school in Augusta, Georgia. He taught at
Savannah State College for 1 7 years.

Dear Dr. Maher, (My Mentor)

I never thought my days would be so unfulfilled with the disturbance of your death. Therefore, I often times find it arduous to come to terms
with the realization of your absence here at our "College by the Sea. "After the wringing news of your passing, I astonished myself with my own
reactions acknowledging just how much of an integral role you have played in my life. Disregarding the tears that blurred my vision, I spotted be-
yond the objects, and I hurled and scattered crazily out of distress, my several boxes of poems, essays, and short stories. There they were, piles of
papers you graded and critiqued, that I embraced. At the time I panicked that they were all I had left of you. "Strong thesis," "firm analysis,"
"well done, " "rushed conclusion, " "correct minor grammar errors, " "vivid images in your poetry, " "keep editing" penetrated my memories of
you as I read. Remember the very first time I invaded your office and I said, "Teach me? " Of course, you recall that moment, because you, with no
reservations, said, "Sure, as long as you want to learn." Initially, I quirked, "Oh, this guy must be some Marva Collins of the teaching industry
who has no life outside of chasing and grading homework assignments." After one "D", an office visit, and an "A" later, I saw sincerity in your
eyes and promise in your heart. I knew my goal was to learn. Never before had I wanted to absorb so much from anyone. And I thank you.

So now that you've given me so much, you just desert me? Don't you know, I wasn't finished? I had questions to last a lifetime. Just think of all
the office time you spent helping me to develop an "A " essay in 40 minutes, critiquing my poem, and molding the building blocks to boost my con-
fidence as a promising writer with exceptional talents. H hile this may be true, you never denied me the truth of what it takes editing, more
editing and possibly hundreds of rejections. So how could you leave me? So untimely? Perchance, knowing you as I did, goodbyes are just too per-
manent.

Now that you're gone, I frequently find myself lost. On several occasions, I've started a trip to your office with one of my latest writing ventures
with hopes that I'd find you there at the typewriter with a cup of coffee nearby. The first few times I cried. After several trips, I accepted your being
gone (physically), but you are so very alive (spiritually) as Shakespeare spoke from a poster; subjects and verbs chattered with agreement from
the shelves, and maps took me to all the places we've traveled together during lectures.

Yes, you never really died. So I will always be surrounded by your life be it the red and green comments on my English papers or the voices of
your former students who have learned so much. To my heart, your absence brought nothing but remorse; now I thank God I was blessed enough to
know you, to miss, and to celebrate your new life in me and those whose lives you've touched and are still touching.

Yours truly,

Zain Jacobs

"GIVE YOU UP"

We didn't want to give you up;
We'll miss that smile on your face.
But comforted are we by this thought.
In Heaven you will take your place.

\Y e didn 't want to give you up;
Your passing though doth make us sad.
But still we're consoled with this thought.
In Heaven you will be glad.

We didn't want to give you up;
Yet we know you've gone to rest.
So comforted are we by this thought;
To be in Heaven is the best.

n January 15, 1908, at Mecca of Negro Education, Howard
University, the seed for excellence, scholarship and a devotion to
the advancement of humankind was planted. The seed that was
sown blossomed as Alpha Kappa Alpha Sorority, the first Greek
letter organization formed for young women. The sorority was
incorporated on January 19, 1913. Alpha Kappa Alpha has
grown from one undergraduate chapter to international acclaim
with over 80,000 members worldwide, such as Gladys Knight
Coretta Scott King, and Rosa Parks. Gamma Upsilon was es-
tablished at Savannah State College in September of 1949: The

.pha Phi Alpha Fraternity, Incorporated, was founded by sev-
en young men on the predominately white campus of Cornell
University on December 4, 1906. Being the first Greek-letter
organization for African Americans, Alpha Phi Alpha set the
precedence for those to come. After 83 years in existence, the
fraternity has nurtured some of the greatest leaders in all walks
of life. Men like Martin Luther King, Jr., Thurgood Marshall,
Nat King Cole, Jesse Owens, and W.E.B. DuBois are only a few
of the brothers among the 100,000 that have helped to shape
history. Delta Eta Chapter, founded on April 24, 1945, is cele-
brating its 40th anniversary at Savannah State College. The
Chapter has made a strong commitment to making a positive
contribution to the community by having tutorial workshops,
participating in the Boys Scouts of America, heading a youth
group for young men in high school, and visiting and caring for
elderly in the community. Ever striving to live up to its motto,
"First of All, Servant of All, We Shall Transcend All", Alpha
Phi Alpha will continue to endure the test of time.

Under the direction of Mr. Freddie Holt, the SSC Marching Tigers are back in
stride. Although they are young and building, the band program has the
potential to be ranked with some of the best like FAMU, Southern University,
and ^Howard University; Just imagine a football game without a marching
band or a basketball game without a pep band. The Marching Tigers is a high
; stepping band ready to make a name for itself once again with its Dance Line,
Flag Corps, and Drum Section. Being a part of the Orange Crush is an honor
that only few can claim. Putting on the half time show may look easy, but
members must work hard to be a part of the Marching Tigers. With the help of
the students, faculty, and staff, the Marching Tigers will be back on the map.

Yearbook

For many students, the first floor of the King-Frazier Complex was a place to hangout, play cards, meet friends, and eat
lunch However, a handful of dedicated students bypassed these types of activities each day to go to work in a small
room on the second floor of the building the Tiger Yearbook room. Staff members could usually be found doing the
seemingly endless tasks necessary to complete the book. Long nights and weekends were spent in the room meeting
deadlines as the most serious socializers became workaholics. Random shouts of everything from "Does anyone know
the girl's name in the picture?" to "Where are my organization pictures?!" to "Who wants to type some copy?" echoed
throughout the room. Although photographers, section editors, and typists .seemed to come and go, a lew staff members
"hung in there" and helped to produce a book which would make themselves as well as the (...liege proud.

TIGER TRACKS

As SSC students savored their last few weeks of summer vacation, the football team was busy getting ready for another season.
Despite losing several key players, the team had hopes of another winning season. The opening contest with Fayetteville State
University was close, but SSC prevailed with a 9-6 victory. During the first away game, the Tigers broke an eight-game losing
jinx against Tuskegee University, with a come from behind 31-21 victory. Tuskegee was the preseason favorite to win the
Southern Intercollegiate Athletic Conference championship. SSC's Tigers could not find a victory during its next 3 games. They
suffered loses to Alabama A & M University (10-14), Wofford College (23-24), and Morris Brown College (7-18). After
making some changes in both the offensive and defensive lineups, the Tigers' hard work began to pay off. Coach Davis and his
staff led SSC to victory with a 30-6 annihilation of Johnson C. Smith University. Next, Savannah State spoiled Clark College's
Homecoming festivities by whipping the Panthers 58-14. Highlighting SSC's 98th Anniversary Celebration, the Tigers
exploded past Morehouse College, 70-13. It was the most points scored by a Tiger football team since 1980, when SSC defeated
Fisk, 77-0. The win over Morehouse was the 3rd in a row, which improved SSC's record to 5-3. After taking a week off, the Ti-
gers came back to maul the Wildcats of Ft. Valley State College 41-14. SSC had a commanding 33-0 halftime lead. In its final
outing, with nothing to lose and everything to gain, the Tigers defeated Albany State College 28-22, and knocked the Golden
Rams out of a possible post-season playoff birth for the 2nd time in the 3rd quarter. It was the 5th win in a row for SSC, and end-
ed the season 8-2, thanks to a forfeit by Morris Brown earlier in the season. The 8-2 record was the best in the school's history.
Most of the players will return next year, and they are hoping for bigger and better things: Bryant Swinson was one of the leading
blockers for the Tigers, which allowed Richard Basil to complete 55.7% of his passes for 1 ,497 yards and 15 touchdowns. Most of
the catches were made by All America Shannon Sharpe, who hauled in 57 receptions for 1 ,03 1 yards and 1 2 touchdowns. Edwin
Ford led the ground attack by grinding out 383 yards and 2 TD's. Defensively, Damon Johnson had 109 tackles and 9 QB sacks,
but Darryl McCormick and Norman McGeathy were right behind him with 98 89 tackles respectively. Eric Brown had 7
interceptions and broke up another 24 pass attempts to lead the team in both categories. Several of the Tigers were honored for
their outstanding performances during the season by the SIAC. They were: wide receiver Shannon Sharpe (SIAC MVP),
quarterback Richard Basil (Best Offense), punt returner Willie Deloach (Punt Returns), cornerback Eric Brown, defensive
tackle Damon Johnson and offensive guard Bryant Swinson. Coach Bill Davis was named SIAC Coach of the Year for the 2nd
time in 3 years. Some National Football League scouts consider Eric Brown to be a possible pro prospect in this year's upcoming
football draft.

Savannah St. Draws the Line

When most fans think of Savannah Stale football.
quarterback Richard Basil and wide receiver Shan-
non Sharpe come to mind

But the pair say ihey aren't the ones under the
gun this week against Savannah Slate

Instead they point to the offensive line

Saturday, the Tigers will travel lo Albany for a 1
p.m. game against the Golden Rams

Albany Stale has the lop defense in the Southern
Intercollegiate Athletic Conference, giving up 1 67
points and 2103 yards per game Hie Golden Rams
rank second in the country in scoring defense

Meanwhile, the Tigers have the best offense in
the conference The Tigers are averaging 352.9 yards
perjame. while scoring 30 6 points

Trie key is the Albany Slate defensive front, pul-
ling pressure on the opponents backfield

They have the No I defense, so their line is do-
ing a tremendous job,'' Basil said 'We have the No
1 offense, so our line is doing a great job. We know
they're going to try to do a lot of blitzing But our
line has been doing such a great job that it's going to
be hard for them to get lo me.

Our line has to have been doing something or
else our running backs wouldn't be gaining ail the
yards and I wouldn't have been able to pass Our
linemen are not only good, but they can think They
Albany State! can't afford to send fewer than four
because of our une

Before the season. Basil was an unknown Now. it
appears Basil may have been the missing ingredient
i the SSC offense

Basil, a junior college transfer, is one of the top
quarterbacks in the NCAA Division U rankings Be-
fore last week s game, he was ranked 12th For the
season, he s completed [OS of 1BI passes for 1,394
yards He a only thrown four interceptions on the
season.

On the other hand. Sharpe was known Last year.
he caught 60 passes for 1.07) yards and 10 touch-
downs. He entered the season a marked man.

Yet. bis stals are remarkably similar to last sea
son. In nine games, he's caught SI passes for 8P
yards and II touchdowns

Sharpe credits his success to the offensive line.

'Last year. I snuck up on people No one was ex-
pecting that. ' Sharpe said "This vear everyone
knew I was double and triple teamed 1 was begin-
ning to doubt if ( would get 1.000 yards. But I told the
offensive line it didn't as long as we won. Several of
them me. Do you want 1,000?' I said yes. They said,
We'll get it for vou ' Now. I only need m yards for
1.000

But it's like I said yesterday I'd rather tike
victory "

Before the season started, the quarterback spot
was up for grabs. Many, including Sharpe. trough!
Johney Jeffrey would be the starter. Instead, Bull
won the role

Sharpe said he could tell right off BasU m tat
quarterback

Coach had told me he could throw the bail,"
Sharpe said "I didn't know anything about tum
since he was from a JUCO. But I knew he waa a
leader He did everything right- He is our kader. H*

In (he record book, il won't say Savannah
Suit wor ant championship on Nov 12, 1968

*tt kj their hearts the player? and coaches
' aslv did By beating Albany Stale 38-22
Hugh Mills Stadium, the Tigers can call
themselves the uncrowned Southern Intercolle-
giate Athletic Conference Champion

Albany State, which dropped lo 8-2 and 6-1 in
the SIAC. came into the game with the confer-
ence title The Golden Rams defeated Morns
Brown last week

SSC, which closed its season also at 8-2 and
(-1, could not win the title no matter what the re-
tulL The SIAC ruled at the start of the season
thai schools on NCAA restriction or probation
would not be eligible for conference titles SSC's

BthJeftc program Wat placed an rwirtctjon when
the school did not meet NCAA Division II re-
quirements by not Deldlng a women's tennis
i team

So the victory was sweet for SSC coach Bill
Davis.

"When we started In August we knew we
couldn't be the conference cnampions.'' Davis
said "But If you beat the champ, you are the
champ And we beat them on their own field "

And they did It In impressive fashion, using a
balanced attack The Tigers gained 170 yards on
the ground and 171 passing. Albany Stale gained
20! yards rushing and 138 passing

"1 don't know where to start pinning the lau-
rels," Davis said "There's so many Coaches
don't win games. Players do We knew comingin
here we had to stop their running game We
knew their passing wouldn't hurt us."

Willie Conway was the main concern of the
Tigers The freshman back gained 133 yards and
scored three touchdowns on I! carries But for
most of the game, he was bottled up by the Ti-

gers

But the main with the pressure on him was
center Allen Williams Playing with a bad knee
and a hurt foot. Williams bed to block nose guard
Wklbert Cooper, who, the coaches wild Is the key
to the Golden Ram defense

Williams had little problem.

"I had to take him on myself." Williams said
"He whipped me a couple of times early. But
coach told me to auck It up

"The offensive line deserves a lot of credit
We had some downfalls in the game, but we were
able to move It"

And the Tigers moved It with they needed it
SSC scored In all four quarters of the game

SSC's first touchdown was a 3-yard sprint to
the right corner of the end by Corey Ladson,
capping an sVvard 12-play drive with 5 37 left In
the first period.

Mrs. Rosalie Lolitha P. Harris
1948-1989

Mrs. Harris was assistant professor
of Mass Communications and

For everything there is a season, and a time

for every matter under heaven;

a time to be born, and a time to die;

a time to plant, and a time to pluck up what is planted;

a time to kill, and a time to heal;

a time to break down; and a time to build up;

a time to weep, and a time to laugh;

a time to mourn, and a time to dance;

a time to cast away stones, and a time to gather stones

together;

a time to embrace, and a time to refrain from embracing;

a time to seek, and a time to lose;

a time to keep, and a time to cast away;

a time to keep silent, and a time to speak;

a time to love, and a time to hate;

a time for war, and a time for peace.

Ecclesiastes 3:1-8

'REMEMBER ME"

REMEMBER ME when I am dead
and simplify me when I'm dead.

As the process of earth

strip off the colour and the skin:

take the brown hair and blue eye

and leave me simplier than at birth,
when hairless I came howling in
as the moon entered the cold sky.

Of my skelton perhaps,

so stripped, a learned man will say

"He was of such a type and intelligence.

Thus when in a year collapse
particular memories, you any
deduce, from the long pain I bore
the opinions I held, who was my foe
and what I left, even my appearance,
but incidents, will be no guide.

Time's wrong-way telescope will show
a minute man ten years hence
and by distance simplified.

Through the lens see if I seem
Substance or nothing: of the world
deserving mention of charitable oblivion,

not by momentary spleen
or love into decision hurled,
leisurely arrive at any opinion.

Remember me when I am dead
and simplify me when I'm dead.

no more.

Flowe

Just another Ice Cold chilly brother
of Alpha Phi Alpha.

It would never have happened without the crew: L to R
Paula (Ester), Kenneth (Outstanding), Roger (Rog), Mi-
chel (Mikeydo), Joel (Joe Flowe), and Oscar (Butch).

Mr. Flowe passes on some useful tips to Jesse Jackson that
he picked up in the unforgettable Dr. Walton's class and
during his unforgettable reign as Vice President of
S.G.A., and Jackson says, "I never thought of that."

Front to Back: Outstanding, Moose,
Execution.

"CHEESE!'

James Jones says, "Posse Up!" as the "Battle-
ship Skeezer" heads south to Daytona.

Same shirt, different
smile, but nonetheless
what a looker!

On the left: The newest edition to the
Flowe family, Nia Imani Robertson.
On the right: Her mother's hand.
Paula just has to be seen.

Dear Savannah State College Family,

It has been a great honor and privilege for me to be Editor-in-Chief of the 1988-89
SSC "TIGER" yearbook. It is my sincere hope that this book has captured at least one
special moment and/or memory that you hold dear.

With the help of some dedicated and enthusiastic individuals, we, the TIGER staff,
feel we have produced the single best edition of the TIGER yet. This year we tried to
use every creative method that was available to us. Our goal was to use techniques that
would breathe life into each and every page.

During the year. I used to think, "What have I gotten myself into?" There were days
when I felt like walking away from it all when it seemed as if nothing would go right,
but that 's when I would turn to God and ask him to give me strength. I sacrificed a lot
of my time to produce this book, and if I had to do it again, I would.

To those of you who see something in "THE EYE OF THE TIGER" that you do not
like, tell me. If there is something that you do like, tell others. Fellow Tigers, I
challenge you to join the 1989-90 yearbook staff and make the next edition even better
than ever in the upcoming celebration of our alma mater.

Mav you carry this book and the memories it harbors in remembrance of your
college experience.

Respectfully yours,
Renee Rolling
