As the 40th graduating class receives their diplomas they will become part of an elite group of Knight graduates. A pause is necessary to remember the first forty years of a legacy th~t wi II continue to grow. The building has been expanded many times to accommodate the growing numbers of students who fill the halls and classrooms, now overflowing to three portable buildings. As we plunge into the next decade a number of second and third generation Knights will be attending the same great school their parents or grandparents attended. Forty years ... and Knight pride continues to flourish.
<:Pl',oto coutl£iy :J.£i i ica 23,ackw While Midsummer Knight 1s Dreams were stil I fresh in our minds another school year began. Some students auditioned for parts in a world premiere play. Other students were drawn into discussions on controversial issues when capital punishment was carried out in Nebraska for the first time in 35 years. With the national pasttime on strike, students looked to music, TV, and books for entertainment. Jobs, friends, activities, and fashions continued to be a focus as students celebrated scenes reminiscent of the past forty years.
As another summer ended we were reminded of the friends we made and pla c es we went. •

In twenty years you won't remember that grade you got on your Spanish quiz, or the topic of that history paper you spent all night working on. All those periodic symbols will be gone from your memory. As your child comes up to you and asks if you have read Lord of the Flies, a faint glimmer of English 10 comes to mind, but you can't remember what the book was about. After your child leaves the room you begin to reminisce about high school days. Friends, people, those are the Knights you Remember . People

Before Lincoln Southeast there was only a cornfield, and Richard Harr and his family lived in front of it. Harr later went to Southeast after it was built. He graduated with the class of '59 the fir st class to have spent all three years at Southeast.
When Harr was in school pep rallies were held every week during the sports seasons : Dances were held in the cafeteria. Sports events were also very big on the list.
"Seniors had the last week of school off. We had different ac tivities, things at school or we had a picnic Some even went to South Bend or Fremont waterskiing , " said Harr.
Harr played football , basketball , baseball, and was in tra c k He is now a teacher at Irving Middle School and teaches physical education.
"It's exciting, you never know from one day to the next. I like teaching junior high aged kids because it's fun to see them grow , " Har r c ommented.
Harr's only child , Heather Harr, a Southeast junior , has played volleyball for three years , basketball for two and soccer for one Harr has coached a lot of athletic teams before, and he helped her a lot.
What is it like being the da\Jghter of a teacher?
"Every place we go, somebody knows him. It takes a while to walk through a crowd of people , " answered Heather.

"Don't do anything today you can put off 'til tomorrow" joked Georgia native Senior Fritz Gibson. However, his extracurricular life told a different story. Despite his regrets for not having spent more time on grades , Gibson found satisfaction in the endless • hours he spent as the feature editor of the Clarion , president of the Young Democrats club , and his involvement in school Drama Club and Thespians.
These activities provided him with a sense of comradery and a chance to meet new people and make connections, and they gave him an opportunity to explore possible future careers and endeavors.
" I never really considered journalism as a career , it was just something I did for fun," said Gibson, who wishes to become a writer for "Rolling Stone" magaz,ine. Gibson plans to pursue this career by attending the University of Georgia in Athens, the home ofone of his main role models bassist Mike Mills of REM.

Dr. Alan Hohensee graduated in 1961. He was on the varsity football and basketball teams. He still continues to watch Southeast players and notices the changes in high school sports compared to when he went to school.
" The skill level of football and basketball is a lot better . We don't compare to nowadays: we weren't as serious. They (players now) play with such intensity , " Hohensee commented.
As a senior, he took physiology and biology and got interested in the sciences. He then majored in biology in college and went to medical school at the University of Nebraska Hohensee is now married and has a daughter and son. He works as a physiciar:t at the Veterans Hospital.
His daughter, Samantha, is a junior at Southeast. She plays the violin in the Orchestra, and is in Court Choir and Shirettes. She enjoys dance and likes to play tennis.

Young Bly th e
Radio show ho sts Scott Young, c la ss of 1968, and Cathy (Unger) Blythe, c la ss of 1967 , have fond memorie s of Key Club Carnival, Nite of Knight s, musicals, and painting the bridge in Antelope Park.
"It was just the best," sa id Blythe, re ca llin g schoo l pride Stude nt s would drive to ga mes in cara van s of cars decorated with crepe paper and paint.
Both Young and Blyth e remembered discipline as see ming more se vere. Pulling weeds in the front yard of the sc hool was one penalty for detention.
Young remembered a po li tical convention that was held involving the entire school, although he thou ght that the politically aware st udent s were probab l y in the minority.
"Everythin g you learn affects you in every way," Young commented, adding that hi g h school was a cr iti ca l time in life. Tea c hers who gave students co nfiden ce were the ones they remembered most. Neither of the KFOR radio personalities had a ca reer goal in radio as high schoo l st udent s, but found their professions after their college experiences.
Youn g; parent of Carson, a 1994 graduate, and Elizabeth , now a sophomore, observed the dramatic changes in Southeast high school life. He believes there are more niches and groups for people to fit into and sees that as an advantage over the "fairly inno ce nt times" of the late 1960'5.

" I want to be remembered for someone who tried to make a difference ." For senior Jody Briggs, that is an understatement. During her years at Southeast, she was involved in Medical Club, IMPACT , Mar ching and Jazz Bands, Peer Pals and served as Student Council president. She also volunteered at Lincoln General Hospital while still finding time to hold down a part-time job. After graduation, she plans to attend the Nebraska Methodist College of Nursing in Omaha.
Briggs said of her experiences, " I always wanted to stay involved and set a good example to others." Her best memories from Southeast involve her love of musi c, such as the 1994 band trip to Chicago and the trips she made with the jazz band. " I will miss my friends and the musi c most of all , " said Briggs. By her involvement in several extra-curricular activities and her abi I ity to set a good example to her peers, Briggs truly is "so meone who tried to make a difference."

During the late sixties most girls wore their hair like the television actress Mary Tyler Moore and wore hippie clothing with paisley print. " Elephant bellbottoms were the in thing then too ," c laimed Rebecca Brown Wilson who was at Southeast from 1968 to 1971. "But Southeast looked pretty much the same back then , other than the Prasch gym addition was not there . It was a parking lot."
Everyone who was anyone at Southeast then was in Future Business Leaders of America or Future Homemakers of America. The girls belonged to Pep Club. They had uniforms and did cheers at games and events. Another popular c lub was Ski Club Breckenridge was a favorite des ti nation.
A typical weekend involved cruising down 'O' street and cruising King's Drive-In. Southeast football and basketball games were very big then too. Students went to meet their friends there and find out the scene for the night. Prom was held in the gym and they also had a Sadie Hawkins dance that the girls loved because they chose the guy to go with . The major difference between the 60's and 70's Southeast and the present day Southeast was the dress code. The girls could not wear pants at all and the guys could only wear dress pants, no jeans at all.

No one ever says 'l'm gonna be a mother of two , marry my high school sweet heart and move on to be an administrative assistant for the Colby Ridge offices when I grow up. Anything ca n happen.

She finished hi g h sc hool with the graduating class of 1973 , but she didn 't leave without a few fond m e mori es and even a little bit of wisdom. l
Had en remembers c rui sin ' ' O' Street and a McDonald 's that ha s been replaced by a Subway. Music from a rti sts like Buddy Holly , Credence Clearwater Revival , and Elton John was popular in her high school years. Sporting events were just as big as they are now. Haden also participated in the Pep Club. Re ca llin g those years Haden advises,"Pay more attention in high school enjoy those years while you ca n. "

We all remember " Sc hroeder" , the musical Peanuts character who cou ld play Beethoven on cue Well, in a lot of ways , senior Il ana Schroeder is just as talented. Schroeder has been playing viola for over fourteen years and is currently involved with the school orchestra and the Lincoln Youth Symphony.
Throughout her high school c areer, she has played in several honor ensembles , su c h as the All-State Orchestra and Hastings Honor Or c hestra Schroeder said, " Music is better than a lot of other teenage ac tivities and it is something that my friends and I can share."
In February, she played a senior solo with senior Elissa Berndt in the Lincoln Youth Symphony winter c on c ert.
"The thing that I will remember the most from Southeast ," she said, " is having the freedom to do what you want to." Schroeder said that she would not miss how cruel teenagers can be to one another and she wouldn't really miss what happened as much as she would miss them happening. " I don't know what I am going to do after graduation."

Rea was National Honor Society president and capta in of the soccer team. He was also involved in Politi ca lly Concerned Students and Outdoor En co unter .
Rea had many experiences in high school that he will always remember. " Nite of Knights last year, football games, camping trips, crazy parties , history day, concerts, and beating Creighton Prep in districts la st year will be experiences that I will remember for a long time. I will also remember all the good times with best friends and neighbors. "
" The Shirettes tee peed my hou se and thrifty ni c keled it , but we got them back. We tee peed one of their houses ," Rea admitted. " They didn't know about it for two months ."
"So utheast prepared me for my future. Learning what I did, I think gives me - an advantage in college. It has a great atmosphere, people, and you l ea rn too."

Lincoln may seem like the lamest place to live in America, but when you're a foreign exchange student it is definitely an adventure.
This year the hallway s were filled with eight international students, from four different countries. They are Magnolia Barra from Chile, Eva Hakova from the Czech Republic, Bo-Sung Kim from Germany , Jaime Martinez from Chile, Aurore Nicot from France, Petr Schwarz from the Czech Republic , David Verfurth from Germany and Lisa Wedin from Sweden. Some came with
two years of English while others came with an amazing seven years.
Many found the school larger than they were used to and the classes were also a change. " It depends on what you're taking, but on the whole classes are easier here than in Germany," said junior Bo-Sung Kim from Berlin, Germany. " Here there is more homework, like reading ."
The city of Lincoln was also a new experience for many of the students. Kim liked seeing the stars at night and the sunsets, which she
usually could not view in Berlin. Junior Aurore Nicot from France thought the houses in Lincoln were much bigger. " The city has so much space, the hou ses are all spread out," said senior Eva Hakova from the Czech Republic
Some of the students have ventured out of Nebraska. Hakova , who staye d with Renae Brester's family, was lucky enough to travel to New York City and Colorado where she enjoyed skiing. Others haven ' t really been out of the state but make every little bit count.
"I was in Chicago for like five minutes when I stopped at the airport ," said junior Lisa Wedin from Sweden.
Most student s agreed that Lincoln may not be a thriving metropoli s but they sti ll manag ed to find a few things to do on the weekend. Both Wedin and Hakovajust liked hanging out with friends , while Kim enjoyed movies and shopping.
Even if the international students didn ' t pick Lincoln as their first c hoice or even as their 50th choice, it is sure to be a great memory.
To most people , working hours each day to memorize six different pieces of music for an intense audition, may seem more than above the call of duty. Still some students decided to go through with it , so they could earn a spot in the All-State Chorus.
Juniors Sarah Howard and Erin Johnsen who decided to try out, and made it. Johnsen said, "I wanted the experience of singing in a large choir It was a goal that I had. It was Ii ke you had 'arrived' if you made All-State."
All-State was held in Scottsbluff this year, so Lincoln students had to rough an eight hour bus ride . After arriving they made friends from all over the state. Howard said, "I met a lot of new people and made new friends. Singing with 450 other people was really neat."
Besides long rehearsals, students also got to see instrumental and vocal music groups from all over the state perform. The trip was long and exhausting. "We were dead on the bus ride home , " said Johnsen.
Altough they were tired , both Howard and Johnsen agree that the experience was worth it. Howard said , "It was considered prestigious to get in , but it was also a really fun experience "

Imagine a job that pays well, lets you travel, and gets you front row seats to every Husker basketball game, home and away. Jeff Smith, 1978 graduate, is the UN-L assistant men's basketball coach
"Southeast prepared me academically for college, and it was the people I met at Southeast that prepared me socially The teache r s motivated me to become an educator and coac h , preparing me for my caree r," said Smith.
Smith played basketball, football and baseball in high school.
" My be st memories from high school are meeting my wife, winning the state football c hampionship, being runner-up in the basketball c hampionships and the friends I made ," Smith said. Smith and his wife, Robin, have two c hildren, Taylor and Connor.
The funniest moment Smith remembers from high school is a skit the coaches put on at a pep rally . They all brushed their teeth with the same water, then Mi ck Pierce drank it.

Every c lass has a student who was the Student Coun c il President, the athletic basketball player, the drama king, or the swing c hoir dude.
For the c lass of 1980 it was Stu Ke rn s. H e described his involvement in school activities as doing "just about everything".
He began using his leadership skills as junior c lass president. Then, in his senior year , he was elected Student Council President.
The th eate r was also a big part of Kerns' high school ca reer. His most memorable role was his portrayal of Sky Masterson in the musi ca l " Guys and Dolls ." He recalled that the other lead character of the play thought she had laryngitis on opening night , but when the ti me to go on ca me she pulled it off.
Besides all of this, he was on the football and basketball te ams, a member of Campus Life , and the MC for Nite of Knights as a junior and senior. " I look back and ca n ' t beli eve some of the goofy things we did," he said.
Kerns became an English teacher and returned to Southeast for three years. He has never quit teaching, but now he is a teacher of the Bible. " I had several people tell me that I could become a good pastor, but I ju st brushed it aside thinking, I couldn't handle it ," Kerns said. He is the head pastor at Covenant Presbyterian Church.

Edwards excelled in Southeast's athletic program after coming from a small high school in Princeton , Indiana. A punt returner and a safety for the varsity football team , he then moved on to become starting point gaurd for the varsity boy1s basketball team. " One of the biggest highlights in my high sc hool football career wa s my sophomore year, in Princeton, when I returned a punt for a touchdown that won the game against a rival school from Jasper , Indiana , " he said.
Even though sports are such a large part of his high school career he does try to concentrate on his school work so that he can graduate and major in psychology at one of his chosen universities. Edwards said that he's not planning on a career in sports but does want to continue playing throughout college.
During his first semester at Southeast Edwards said that he hasn't totally adjusted to his new school but he also said , "There's not that much to dislike about it." He added that there not as much diversity in this school.

She has participated in Model Search America and Trendsetters Model Board. In Model Sear c h America there were 800 contestants with 20 modeling agencies present , including one form Paris. Each of the agencies picked 15-20 people to represent them. Out of the twenty agencies eleven of them selected Moore.

Imagine that you are on the Var sity football team, you're playing against Omaha Bryan and you are the startin g tight end. Your team i s on the 35 yard line and the play is a 10 yard out. Pretty coo l , huh ? That was the sce nario for 1986 grad uate Chris Cassel. Although when Troy Canter, the quarterback, passed him the ball, h e froze and ultimately dropped the ball. He took it in stride and l ea rned from hi s mi stake
"W hil e we didn ' t hav e any stars on our football team we did play well together as a team , and were successfu I .

"When I was in school there were no girl sports which was really bad because I was very athletic.. by gosh I wanted to change that,"stated Mimi Kuebler. Now Kuebler teaches PE at her old high school and encourages girls to be athletic and to get involved A 1969 graduate she started teaching here in 1973
Student life consisted of hanging out at King ' s or in the LSE parking l ot. Spring Day allowed the girls to wear jeans and promoted such wild pranks as bike riding down the halls.
"Life now is not centered around school,"Kueb l er com~ mented.
Her daughter,Maggi,a se ni or cheerleader disagreed, "The school has a lot of spirit and show it at really big games We have pretty good schoo l spirit."
Kuebler has three chi ldren, Erika, a 1989 graduate, Maggi, and Jake, age five She has coached the dri 11 team, volleyball, basketball,and SynkraKnights .

With college requirements becoming tougher to meet, academics became more important than ever in high school. Striving for the coveted 4.0 was a goal for many while some were happy just to make honor roll. New phones in every room made the educational process a world wide affair as teachers began to use the on-line resources never before available during class. Jobs and other school activities made students study

"Women's Lit is a good place to learn things that men are not supposed to learn, the writers get very explicit, and they talk in
"Women's
Lit is not a feminist class at all; however, it may be perceived that way."

to speak fluent 'woman , ' " sa id senior Andrew Sewell. Senior Nicole Parker said, "Women' s Lit help s u s to be less ignorant abo ut society."
Even though the new class has only three male students, they think it is different , and different is good.

Have you ever wondered what you could give your significant other that wouldn't cost you anything except a lot of fun and some school time? How about a gift of Jewelry made in the comfort of your own c lass
Students enjoyed jewelry for many different reasons.
"In jewelry class you can let your creative juices flow."
-Julie Herr, senior
Junior Amanda Grove said, "It's
one of those classes you can go braindead in .
You don't hav e to think about stuff." Not only could you be creat ive in jewelry, but it was also a good st ressbust er from the regular c la sses at school.
Other classes that provided enjoyment were photography, design , painting, pottery , drawing, and co mmercial art.

The first forty years of athletics were just a warmup for what is yet to come. After winning the All Sports State Championship award last year hopes were set high. Throughout the seasons you could find fans cheering on all the teams. Both the boys and girls basketball teams were rated number one in the state at the same time. No matter who the opponent was or what the sport, it was never a One Knight Stand.

With no returning starters and a small offensive line no one thought the varsity footba ll team would be very good , that is , everyone except the players.
"We knew our team would be good. Everyone knew what they had to do ," senior nosegaurd Jason Mattison said .
The Knights used a combination of strength and speed to put together a su c cessfu l 7-2 season. Senior defensive end and tight end Craig Laporta sa i d , " We didn't have many of big people, but we had a lot of quick , strong guys who knew what to do . "
That knowledge with a strong team unity gave the team confiden c e in their ability to win without any returning starters.
Senior placekicker Jef Sevenker said, " We never had a doubt about being a good team We have played together for three years , so we knew how to win together."
Th e Knights are looking forward to another good year next year behind the leadership and experience of junior quarterback Chad Cade , junior running back J. R. Edwards , and many others who contributed to an excel lent season
What's black and gold and bruised all over? The JV football team after one of their very c lose games. The team played well with a 5 - 4 season record. " The whole team worked as one so there was no one best player ," concluded starting quarterback Jeff Mueller.
The offense was strong with junior Rahsaan Thomas gaining many of the rushing yards. The defense played great by holding their opponents to under fifteen points in every game. Junior Josh Munford summed up the defense when he said, "They had a couple of low points but played well when it counted " With an overtime loss and two losses by six points the JV team could have had a better record.
The reserve footbal I team won because they played as a team. They were led by a tough defense and a good offense throghout the year, which helped them to a 6 - 1 record . " We had a strong running offense and our passing was not that shabby ," sophomore Josh Smith said
The success of both teams was definitely the contribution of al I players.

Volleyball--a sport of agility, speed and precision T he JV and reserve teams definitely achieved al l three c riteria throu ghout the season. "Volleyba l l is not just fun anymore ; you have to be exa c t now that you're older , " said sophomore JV team member Christy Jensen
The JV team proved that they knew how to "get it tog ether" by uniting the team of players from different backgrounds. Sophomore Whitney Bock gained her expertise from former Southeast player Jenn Re i mers who now plays for Penn. State. The well-adjusted team ended the season with a 8-7 record .
"Ex c iting , " was the only word sophomore reserve team member Abigal Williams saw fit to des c ribe their incredible sea son with a 13-1 record.
Sophomore Stephanie Downs believed that team spirit was the key to the year's successful season "Everyone got along so w e ll that it really paid off in the game , " she explained .
Al I of the players l eft the season with greater ski 11 levels and new hope for their athletic careers

Though only in its second year as a sport at Southeast the varsity softball team has shown the talent and teamwork of a team that has played together for years.
" We have speed. Also we have a really good defense , and good pitchers , " said junior Sarah Roby All of this was just the start of what made this team the best in Nebraska.
" One of our strengths is that we have a lot of leadership Since most of the girls are seniors we c an he l p out the younger players , " said senior Laural Maslowski . The team consisted of mostly senior s and just enough juniors and sophomores to anticipate another great seaon next year.
"We have done well. The games we lost were because we did not p l ay up to our ability , " said sophomore Courtney Wittstruck.
The team attributed their success to many things , from good batters , like seniors Stephanie Cook and Sonja Bice , to spectators cheering them on "When students come to the games we perform better be- • cause they are watching us," said Maslowski .
The varisty team finished the season 32 and8 and fin i shed first at the state meet. The team beat Millard South 3 to 1 in the champ i onship game at state . They also finished second in both the Linco l n Public Schools and Omaha Invitationals.

"W e're really pleased with ourselves , " co mmented se nior Scott Schmidt about the team's winning season. It was a seaso n of ups and downs Like the thrilling victory against Colubus when J.R . Edwards hit a thr ee point shot (nothin g but n et) with seco nds re maining to give Southeast th e 70 -6 7 win.
"W e 've played very we l l this seaso n , " sa id senior Brian Bohlin g. Tea mmate , Ryan Lebow agreed the te am had a terrif i c seaso n. Lebow believed a ll the players co ntributed to the teams su cc ess like junior s J. R. Edwa rd s, Cory Adams and se nior Ni c k Wi l son.
Team m a nag ers, se niors Tim Emry and Brandt Riley , were impre sse d by this year' s team. "They work well as a team. Everyon e know s th eir ro l e, " said Emry "They ca m e tog et her at the ri ght time , " agreed Ri l ey Thi s year's team of 14 was made up of ten seniors and four jun i ors "We've a ll grow n together ," said Boh lin g "There's a lot of ex perien ce on the team " co mm e nted se nior Andy Voss
What happ e n s when baseball goes o n str ik e, h oc key start s l ate and footba ll e nd s with a Sup er Bowl blowout? Basketball becomes the best sport to watch on Frid ay ni g ht s. Over t h e past year , while ot h er m aj or sports suffered great downfalls, it was basketball that stayed tr u e to its co l ors and produ ce d the spirit of sports m a n ship that see m s to be l ost in the c h a n g in g face of sports.
N ever was the fact m o re true th a n in the JV and reserve boy's basketball tea m s and t h e players a nd coac h es that m ade their seaso n s su ccessf ul. Th e JV team grew in th e ir co n si stency as a team as the seaso n progressed. Juni o r Chris Cooper sa id , "Th e season m ay h ave sta rt ed a lit t l e bit sl ow, but i t really picked up toward s the e nd. "
Act in g in t h e sa m e regards was the reserve tea m that co nqu e red to u g h teams to e nd with a winning seaso n "Thi s was m y seco nd year on t h e team , a nd I rea ll y think that the quality of the players h as improved," sa id sop h o m ore Eri c Schne ib e r
Whether it wa s imp rov in g as a n individu a l or as a team , th e JV a nd reserve teams "h e ld th e ir ow n ."

There's more to boys' swimming and diving than bald heads and Speedos. Swimmer junior Pat Rowan said, " It ' s more of a mental sport than a physical. The mental training is almost more important than the trainin g in the pool. " Rowan added , " You have to go into the race with the ' I'm gonna win' strategy."
The divers who made state this year are sophomore Brett Spilker , junior Justin Sellhorn , and sophomore Adam Sellhorn Sophomore Jason Blase, senior Matt Hathaway , junior Chris Hunzeker , senior Justin Hyde , and junior Pat Rowan qualified as swimmers for state
Some of the swimmers have found their key to success by wearing more than one Speedo , then wear only one when the swimmer deems i t necessary. Pat Rowan wear s one if he wants to win the race, " You c an only do it on c e or twice a season or else you ' ll lo se it ," he said
Thursday , February 23rd, the guys held the annua 1 head-shaving ritual at David Kovar's house Some of th e swimmers take shaving every body part to an extreme anyway , all this for saving a few seconds at the most to win the race.
As a team they placed fourth during the state meet in the Bob Devaney Center.

It is freezing outside, but that doesn ' t stop the girls swimming and diving team from heating up the pool.
The team spent as much time this year trying to find team unity as they did practicing their sport.
" This year we are a younger team , but we are more of a team and not just a group of people swimming together , " said senior Melanie Meyer " At meets we wou Id cheer for ea c h other and were rea l ly enth usiasti c."
The team practiced to improve their skills , getting up very early. " We practi c ed two hours every day after schoo l and we also c ame in at 5:15 or 5 : 30 in the morning Pract i c ing helped us improve our times and get closer to our goals, " said sophomore Sarah Travis
" We were enthusiastic about swimming this year It was serious enough to make it productive , but we had a lot of fun ," said senior Whitney Maxwell " It has been fun to see the team change in the four years I have been swimming. "
The team was a real team this year, and not just indiv i dua l swimmers winning.
" Everyone is good at something. There is no specific event Southeast is really good or really bad in We ' re a team and we all bring something different to the team , " said junior Carie Parman.

Through forty years many different companies have advertised in the Shield. A few have gone out of business, but others saw the need for a new product and created a company that grew. This year's advertisers range from small local businesses to large national chains. Each has their own unique product. Through all the years we read the ads and made our plans to Make a Knight of It.
