Warming to Wayland

1. Registration line signals the beginning of academics at Wayland. For Wayland families, Mr. Foster explains the student activities and sports rounding out the total program. 2. Andy and Eric Huss at registration anticipating the new school year.

Registration and moving in are the times when you really understand what it's like to grow up. You're slapped in the face with a ton of responsibility, things you never thought you would have to do until you slowly progressed into that stage that everyone calls adulthood. But all in all, you realize that moving into a dorm with 70 other students and a roommate who is your exact opposite, can't really be all that bad. If you really think about it, most of us have done this or will do for the entire four years that we spend at this glorious place we call Wayland Academy.

Wayland Academy does take a bit of time getting accustomed to; the work, the play, the food, the rules and being away from where one comes from .... where ever that may be; North America, South America, Africa, Asia, Europe, or the Middle East. The student body of Wayland is a Global Community that warms to one another forming friendships that lasts for a lifetime. The journey begins ....

Introduction

Orientation Orientation is the act or process of orienting or of being oriented . Wayland Academy's orientation is a time when students come from every direction of the world and join together in small groups to learn to work together. Some people think orientation is fun, challenging, and even scary at some times. It is a time to get to meet other students, make new friends and feel a part of the community working together, getting through obstacles, such as "The Wall", laughing and having a lot of fun.

Orientation helps ease students into the academic year by building unity.

This year a different approach to the weekend was tried, each class went together to discover themselves individually and as a group. Each of the four groups left for their destinations with great anticipation and came back with a new sense of unity.

Rock climbing, canoeing, rope courses, sailing, and hiking were just a few of the challenges. There were opportunities to achieve and learn more about oneself as well as each other. The weekend was a great success!

Spirit Week Class Spirit A Change of Pace Color Clash Jeans Day Celebrity Day Red & White Day School Spirit

As a part of the Spirit Week competitions, each class is given the materials to make a mural. This is often where class themes are born and flourish throughout the year. The freshmen declared their independence with "Don't Step on the Fresh Fish." The Sophomore class shot for the sky with their class rocket. The juniors found themselves in a sticky situation with Winnie the Pooh, and the seniors headed off into the unknown "Where the Sidewalk Ends ... " All of the murals look great and set a new standard for years to come. The murals found a home in Swan Library.

1. Are you ready for this? Homecoming Court '95: jackie Haley and judd Greif; Lizzy Boucher and Lee Nason; Dominic Ferraro and Heather Paulus; Victoria Dimitrov and Andy Huss. 2.

The pride of the senior class- don' t fall!

SPIRIT WEEK is a time for the freshman, sophomore, junior, and

senior classes to pull together and show their enthusiasm. They compete for the honor of being top class and to prove their prowess. Every day there was a different competition; Monday was class colors day, Tuesday was clash day, Wednesday jeans day, Thursday celebrity /seventies day, and Friday, red and white day.

For every person who participated, the classes got points. During the evenings, there was volleyball and tug-of-war. Friday evening was the Pep Rally, where class cheers, murals, and rocks were added to the scores. The Junior and Senior classes were tied at the end of the judging, and had to have a tug-of-war as a tie breaker. In the end the junior class won the prize, a week out of dress code.

Well worth the effort for hassle free dressing! All in all, it was a very successful spirit week for everyone!

Deana Heilmeyer

They danced down the street and I shambled after as I've been doing all my life after people who interest me, because the only people for me are the mad ones, the ones who are mad to live, mad to talk, mad to be saved, desirous of everything at the same time, the ones who never yawn or say a commonplace thing, but burn, burn, burn, like fabulous yellow Roman candles exploding like spiders across the stars, and in the middle you see the blue centerlight pop and everybody goes "Aww."

Soung Jun Go

Finally, my high school life is ending. I have been eager for this time for many years. Now I feel I am free man already.

Good-bye, everybody. Goodbye, Wayland.

David Greene

As time passes, we will perhaps venture down many, many roads as we look for the answers to the questio ns in our minds. We will perhaps drift many miles apart as we seek to satisfy the desires of our hearts. And though we move on and encounter the changes of life, let us not forget. May our friendships endure forever.

Mila: I'll always love you . My Boys: I got your backs for days . Girls: I use natural juices and berries. Penthouse, {A.W., LB ., M.T.): Don't say what; they call it a Roy-al with cheese!

Represent 96 Grandma A.K.A. Fila Fred B.K.A. A Good Friend.

As time passes, we will perhaps venture down many, many roads as we look for the answer to the questions in our mind . We will perhaps drift many miles a part as we seek to satisfy the desires of our hearts. And though we move on and encounter the changes of life, let us not forget . May our friendships endure forever.

Penelope Hommel

"We don't stop playing because we grow old, we grow old because we stop playing." Mom, Dad, that was fun, now what?

Here at Wayland, the last step before college, I had a really great time during my senior year, considering it was the hardest of the twelve years. People here are friendly and they act as if they have known you for a long time and will still know you after graduation. I hope that the class of '96 makes a difference more significant than the other classes .

I am going to miss the people from Wayland . I am very grateful to my parents who helped helped me to get through high school. Special thanks to my uncle who was always there when I needed him . I hope that as I become an adult, I will be able to pay back all the people who helped me .

As I see the sky through the tree branches, it looks as if it goes on forever, an endless mystic of sorrow. The clouds stop my vision of the outside world. My inner thoughts are confusing, the sky is confusing, a mangled picture; the stillness of the rolling clouds.

I do my thing, and you do your thing.

Perls Thanks to everyone who has been there with me through the good times and the bad. Mom, Dad, and Leslie - I love you and I know that I couldn't have made it this far without you .

The moments spent at Wayland will be engraved in my mind as beautiful memories, and I' m going to miss them a lot. I thank so many people I don't know how I should address them all, but I especially thank the Wayland Koreans for having ke pt my days so "alive." I found myself very happy among them .

Thank you, big brother, I used you as my essay subject about three times here at Wayland.

Most of all, thank you, Mom and Dad, for having provided the means for all the wonderful things to happen to me in the first place.

To the Penthouse crew; thanks for making things interesting. To the Renitas; it's all good. I thank God for continuing to open doors for me . To anyone struggling; keep your head up.

Vijay Sankaran

As I look back at my four years at Wayand Academy, I search in vain to find what values it's instilled in me, I've learned how to fall asleep despite a roommate who snores like a chainsaw, And I' ve learned how to live in Wayland Hall ...

I've learned how to get clean or bathe in a communal shower, I've learned how to cope without any T.V. shows due to the strictly enforced study hours, I've learned how to de pend o n Ramen for my main sustenance, And as for laundry, I've become accustomed to wasting 500 cents.

In conclusion, to e nd this poem, I give the junior some advice, When writing your senior quote, don't wait 'til the ve ry last night!

Edward Sopanan Hi! It's me, Ed ... I' d like to thank my parents who afforded me to study at this great school, Wayland Academy.

Also, I want to thank my girlfriend, Jeannie, who always supported me to study hard . And I want to say "thanks for all the great time" that I had spent with all my friends at Wayland . I'll never forget all those experiences and I' ll keep it as an unforgettable memory. And thanks to all my teachers: Ms.Aipaugh, my mentor and history teacher; Mr. Cobb, a very, very good Economics teacher and a nice dorm supervisor; Ms. Maitzen, "the funny teacher"; Ms. Fischer; and Mr. Spanier, "Mr. Calculator" ... and not to forget Mr. Wiseman and Mr. Sackett, "Two Coaches". And I have some words to the generation after us. " Don' t lose your spirit. .. a Wayland spirit" and study hard . Being a senior is hard .

You carry a big responsibility to work hard for the best college. Once more, thanks to everybody involved at Wayland.

Freeman Tang

The most important things I learned this year at Wayland were: being independent, dealing with my reponsibilitites, and what my family and friends back home really mean to me.

The study atmosphere here will certainly help me a great deal during my college years. I would like to use this opportunity to thank Mr. Cobb and Mr. Hunter in helping me so much with my difficult start at the beginning.

Also thanks to other teachers and friends .

Aaron Westra Mankind is notoriously too dense to read the signs that God sends from time to tim e. We require drums to be beaten into our ears, before we should wake from our trance and hear the wacki ng and see that to loose oneself in all is the only way to fi nd oneself. - M ohandas Karamchand (Mahatma) Gandhi

Roy Wibisono It has been great years at Wayland, finishing my high school career with satisfaction.

I've experienced a lot of good and bad stuff that has been for the most part enjoyable. I would like to thank Mom and Dad for your understanding and guidance. Thanks for all my friends both at W ayland and my home country for your support; th anks for all Wayland's faculty who helped me gain a good reputati on at Waylan d. And special thanks to my mentor, Mr. Patterson and to Mr. Seighman, thanks for the attention that yo u've given me. Love and Peace.

Wojtek Weickowski

Wayl and? (After two months of expereince): Too hot in th e summer, too much rain in the fall, too col d in the winter, probably something wrong in the spring; too many quizzes and tests, too difficult classes, too early breakfast, too boring weekends ...but after about twenty years w hen I will be rich and famous, I will probably love this school!

Chiaki Yamamoto When monkeys eat bananas, These are monkey in the zoos or zees.

We get these things all jungled up, The way chicks have the pip or pup.

For monkeys swinging twos by twos, In three tops not in zees or zoos.

Don't have bananas bad for teetn, But luts of nos below beneath.

Time has gone so fast. Even all my hard experiences here will change to good memories in my futrure . To my friends: thank you to all who know me well and gave me lots of fun . I' ll never forget you guys and wish you good luck. And to my parents: thank for your love and all you support.

Hee-Seck Yoon

Living in Wayland for a year has kept me quite busy. I had to get up early in the morning because I had to finish my homework. I had to check my mailbox everyday because I was waiting for my stuff th at I had ordered. I couldn't take a nap after school because I had to go after school activities. I had to gather $2 .50 in quarters every week because I got so much laundry. I had to check every room once a week because I got duty. I had to go ShopKo because I needed some foods that I'm eating at night. I went to Beaver Dam Mall every Friday because I had nothing to do in the dorm . That's about it!

Mr. Seighman, We Love You!

The 1996

Pillars it is ded1cated to you ...

There are a lot of facts that we could recite about Eli Seighman - an AB from West Virginia University in 1961, an MALS from Case Western in 1963, a member of the Wayland community since 1967, librarian, organist, audiovisual guru, friend, mentor dorm supervisor, collector of furniture, dancerextraordinaire, wild party thrower. But these are only activities and don't come anywhere near telling the whole story. Eli Seighman is what a professional member of the faculty should be truly committed to the boarding school experience - especially here at Wayland. No matter what he does, he does it 100% and always for the benefit of the students, his colleagues, his friends and the Academy. A lesson I have tried (unsuccessfully) to teach him for many years is how to say "no" . I honestly don't think the word is in his vocabulary.

And if it were, he would not be the Eli Seighman we know and love.

As a friend, my memory goes all the way back to our first meeting. I had just arrived on campus and was told to see the Librarian in Lindfield. I ran into him on the front steps . We both smoked at the time and he offered me a cigarette - and then promptly dropped the pack, spilling all the cigarettes on the sidewalk. Little did I know that this first mishap would recur over the next 18 years . Those who know him well , know how prone he is to spilling, dropping, losing and especially running into things. He and I laughed that day as we came to know each other and have rarely stopped laughing since .

I consider myself very lucky to have Mr. Seighman as a colleague, but even luckier to have him as a friend. joe Lennertz - Academic Dean

Years from now, when Wayland alumni turn th eir thoughts toward Beaver Dam, they will remember a dedicated educator who cared more about students and about Wayland than about himself. They will reminisce about Eli Seighman's many tal ents: playing the organ and his love for music, assisting the entire community with audiovisual support, and presiding over one of the fine st college preparatory libraries in the country . They will reflect upon his compassion and his care.

Dr. Alfred Grieshaber President

Dedication

Mr. Seighman is everyone's friend. When someone is upset, Eli hopes to comfort. When one needs help, Eli lends a hand.

Scurrying around the campus, involved in all aspects of campus life, Mr. Seighman makes life more pleasant wherever he appears. His library is the learning center of the campus, but within the library the greatest resource is Mr. Seighman himself. What a gem ! john Patterson - English, Department Chair

When I ca me to th e Wayland ca mpu s in 1992 to interview fo r a teaching position, I was overwhelmed by th e beauty of the ca mpus, th e maturity of th e stud ents, and the strenuousness (or so it seemed to me) of th e interrogation I received at the hand s of an excepti onal fac ulty and administrati ve staff w ho obviously ca red deeply about the we lfare of th e stud ents under their ca re.

Am id th e was h of th ese im pressions, one person's interview stood out distinctly fro m th e rest as I drove away from Beaver Dam. That perso n was Eli Seighman. In th at first disc ussion, I observed severa l thin gs about Mr. Seighman. His obvious professionali sm tempered w ith kindn ess (with kindness the key wo rd ); th e breadth of his ed uca tion and range of his abilities; hi s compassion , both for th e poor interviewee before him and th e stud ents he represented. It was evide nt fro m the out set how much he cared about Wayland .

In th e yea rs since that first mee tin g, I have co ntinu ed to cas uall y observe my frie nd, Mr. Seighman. I have observed th e way returnin g stud ents flock to him during alu mni events as to an old and loved fr iend . I have seen th e way other facu lty have tru sted him and co me to him w ith co nce rn s both professiona l and persona l. I have recall ed th e frustrat ions and fea rs of my first yea r at Wayland , when I fe lt Eli to be such a lifeline th at I fina ll y told him that I wanted to have my ashes throw n over him when I died. (As in all thin gs, he took that proposal we ll.)

And I have fina ll y observed something else: Mr. Seighman is an observe r, too, but he is also much more: H e is an active participant, always. The difference w ith Eli is th at he does so much more th an is asked of him, w hile bein g cheerful and pleasant abou t it. The joy he takes in his wo rk is evident in everything th at he does. He is effective, professional, ca rin g, and kind ; a lovely, loving man.

Th e more I have observed him and lea rn about him, the more I love him, and in th at I know I am not alone. How many people ca n we say that about?

Science and sc ientii ic facts only have transitory val ue unless they are used to help us grow as human beings. Biology stresses the unity of life and th e co mmon functions of all organisms.

Chemistry promotes the ability to observe and expe rim ent acc urately, to ana lyze problems on the basis of scientific techn iqu es and to apprec iate it s effective role in the advancement of civi lization. How thin gs wo rk is exp lain ed by the understand ing of physics. Data coll ection, interpretat ion, and formulating hypotheses and theories takes us to a practical understanding.

Lesson

& Carols This year's Festival of Lesson and Carols service, an adaptation of a 19th-century service originating in England's Truro Cathedral, illustrates the celebration of continual seasonal change and fruition through visuals and music.

Each year the Fine Arts Department produces this magnificent program that reaches out to the area community featuring the manr. talents, both visual and musica , of the students from Wayland. It is Wayland's very own seasonal tradition.

1. The banner represents the cycle of life, depicted by an apple motif: spring' s blossom, summer' s leaf, autumn's harvest fruit, and the bare branch of winter, all nurtured by the sun . This year' s theme and banner design was developed by Mrs. Maitzen and made with the help of the Wayland Art Project members and Mrs. Bleifuss.

It ha not been easy, but then, no one said it would be. We have been working hard these past two years to rebuild a football program. Despite a 1-7 record this past season, there were times when we were our own worst enemy. And, although we may not be entirely over our growing pains, we have come a long way in two years. The most difficult times are behind us. The foundation for success has been laid due in large part to the sacrifices made by this team. The players which will return are committed to turning our football program into one of the finest in the conference. I am optimistic about the future and thank this year's team for their efforts.

The girl's volleyball team had another fine season scoring several victories against tough competition. The highlight of the season was the victory over the Beaver Dam volleyball team, one which every player contributed to. The Wolverine team always gave 100% and their committment and dedication was obvious to all who attended home games. After a third place finish at the conference tournament the girls next challenge was the WISAA Regional. After a tremendous struggle and an overtime game, Wayland was defeated by Oshkosh Lourdes.

This team was a delight to coach and I will miss our three seniors who gave so much inspiration and leadership to the team . Coach Foster

I wish we'd won more games, but we played hard and had fun. We all became really close and I had a great time! Good luck seniors, next year Juniors.

Remember "Don't Go There! Click!"

We beat Beaver Dam High School!! We gave some of the best teams in the conference a real run . And when the Wayland Varsity team was on, we were so on, it was amazing. Melina Raffin, Liz Goslin, and Mindy White will be missed .

The Varsity Volleyball team was a blast this year.

When we were ahead, we were way ahead. In my four years at Wayland, this has been our best year so far. I'm going to miss playing with the team. I wish the girls next year much luck. Nicci, don't go there.

Our volleyball season went well. We accomplished many things we intended to do. we beat teams that we never have before beaten by Wayland. Our team worked together and all enjoyed the sport.

The Girls' Basketball team had their best season in the history of the school. Not only did th e Lady Wolverines post a winning record for th e first tim e in decades, they won the Midwest Classic Conference East Division titl e, which is a first fo r girls' basketball at Wayland . Wayland ' s season reco rd was 11 -4, and having defeated M il wa ukee Messmer in the quarter finals of the WISAA Regional, Wayland lost the semifinal ga me to Kettle Moraine Luth eran. There were many highlights throughout the season, including a conference record of 8-1. Perhaps the major ach ievement was having four players represented on the MCC All Conference team. Mind y White and Masayo Takei were named to the first team, wh ile Nicci Pea rson and Dena Loh se rece ived honourable mentions .

Mindy White was also named outstanding player of the year for th e confere nce. Wa yland w ill mi ss the grad uating seniors but th ey have established a foundation upon which we ca n grow and continue to improve our program.

Certainly I believe that this year was a step in the right direction for the boys and the program.

I feel that our new players like Pete Prunuske, jake Fakes, and Gabe Doyle blended in well with our returning players. Aaron Westra and David Greene both improved considerably and played significant roles in our championship season. jesse Raymond, who played the entire season injured, proved what a competitor he is with a super season. Really the entire team deserves a congratulations for their efforts throughout the year.

The season certainly provided its share of excitement. Aaron Westra's three-pointers at the buzzer versus Burlington Catholic and New Glarus provided Wayland with two big wins. jesse Raymond's allely-oop layup at the buzzer capped off a terrific performance against Alden-Hebron as Wayland won big, 61-29, at home. Who will forget jake Fakes' clutch free throws in the final 1.7 seconds to lift Wayland past Lakeside Lutheran and keep our state drive alive? I hope that this season was just the first of many exciting years of basketball here at Wayland. - Coach Jo hn WeiSs

SKI TEAM

This yea r's team had 1 7 boys and 7 girls. Our boys team was a very yo ung team with the varsity team being composed on one fre shman, two sophomores, three juniors and one sen ior. Th ey did exceptiona ll y we ll and in the end qualified fo r the co nference race (top 12 teams in the conference).

As a result of the conference race showing, Wa yland qualified for th e state championsh ip race at Lacrosse, Wisconsin. With the experience that we have ga ined this year, we shou ld enter next yea r w ith a much higher level of confidence and expectation for the varsity team. Th e junior Varsity also did well in ga inin g a first and three seco nds throughout the six race season.

The girls team skied well enough to be in th e thick of the pack right up until the fina l race of the season . W e were pl ease d with their progress and fee l th at th ey did ve ry we ll during the season. The unfortunate part of th e girls team is that we w ill lose 5 of the 7 members to graduation this year. Because of this , next yea r will be a rebuildin g year unless we get some new high quality ski ers attending W ayland next fall. - Coach Kasper
