Jon Erickson

Dear Readers: After a turbulent start as editor of this yearbook three years ago, I can sincerely say the experience has not always been "fun," but it has been educational. Since taking over the reins, the "Gem" has reclaimed its title as one the best college yearbooks by receiving all major journalistic awards. Of this, I am very proud. However, it would not have been possible without the help of a few very special individuals. And so to these people, I would like to present my own awards as thanks. No editor can survive without a good printer. But when you work with The Delmar Co., you have a excellent printer. To SHERRY BRENEMAN, FRANK MYERS and all the Delmar technicans I present the "On Time Delivery and Perfect Pages Award." Editor of the UI's first Gold Crown and Pacemaker yearbook, GARY LUNDGREN is responsible for teaching me almost everything I know about putting out a journalistic publication. For his ability to make a profit off of yearbooks, I present the " Rip Off, Inc. Award." If it hadn't been for COLONEL CHARLES E. SAVEDGE, the father of modern yearbooks, I wouldn't have ever applied to be the editor of the "Gem." He is indeed the man responsible for putting yearbook "magic" into me and thousands of other yearbook journalists. To him I present the famous "Now LoooooooooooK Award." Gem staffers FRANK HILL and BRYAN CLARK have stuck with me through hundreds of chocolate chip cookies, captions, stories and disagreements during the past two years. Their creativity and hard work are truly appreciated. For their ability to disrupt the office, I present the treasured "Agitation Award." Managing Editor PAUL ALLEE is responsible for the '86 and '87 Gems literally making it to the presses. Had he not be around to help me with the thousands of tasks involved in publishing the yearbook, I don't what I would have done. While we sometimes got tired of one another, our friendship weathered all the storms. Upon him I bestow the "Your My Best Friend and Sigma Chi Fraternity Brother Award."
