The Marching Tigers Are On The Way Up
Before We Put You In Charge Of The World's
Most Sophisticated Nuclear Equipment,
We Put You Through The World's
Most Sophisticated Nuclear Training.
It takes more than 16
months of intensive
training to become a
fully qualified officer in
the Nuclear Navy. You
begin with four months
of leadership training.
Then as a Navy officer
you get a full year of
graduate-level training
unavailable anywhere else at any price.
Navy training is based on more than
1900 reactor-years of experience. Right
now the Navy operates over half the
nuclear reactors in America. And the
Navy’s nuclear equipment is the most
sophisticated in the world. That’s why
your Navy training is and must be the
most sophisticated in the world.
As an officer in the Nuclear Navy,
you have decision-making authority
immediately. You get important manage
ment responsibility
fast. Because in the
Navy, as your knowl
edge grows, so does
your responsibility.
Your training and
experience place you
among the country’s
most qualified profes
sionals. (No surprise
that most of the men
who operate the
reactors in private
industry started in the
Nuclear Navy.)
It takes more time
and more effort to
become an officer in the
Nuclear Navy. But the
rewards are greater, too.
The rewards can begin as early as
your junior year in college. Qualify, and
the Navy will pay you approximately
$1000/month while you finish school.
After four years, with regular
promotions and salary increases, you can
be earning as much as $37,400. That’s on
top of a benefits package that includes
medical and dental care, and 30 days’
vacation earned every year. More
responsibility, more money, more future.
So, if you’re majoring in math,
engineering or the
physical sciences, and
you want to know more
about a future in
nuclear power, fill in
the coupon.
Today’s Nuclear
Navy is an opportunity
like no other in the
world.

Navy Officers Get Responsibility Fast.
By Eric Lackland
Here it is,theFall’82 marching Tigers are
on the move with a 90 piece band: three
Drum Majors, twenty - four Tigerettes and
fifteen Majorettes.
The band feels they deserve the oppor
tunity to show off because they have
worked hard for their chance in the
spotlight.
The band has a brass section that rivals a
drum and bugle corp because of its
strength and clarity. The tubas do the job
with the brass section while the trumpets
play melodies with power yet
gracefulness.
The trombones play out the counter
melodies well enough to make the
audience not only take notice, but get
very physically involved with their
presentation as well.
The woodwinds give validity to the
saying, “quality not quantity.” They are
out - numbered but not out played, and
they help make the band’s sound com
plete.
Drum Majors Melvin Lipscomb, Derris
Mitchell and Christal Jones synchronize
the band in perfect harmony. The snare
drummers, who could hold their own
anywhere, have some tom - tom players
behind them that are not slouches either.
The bass drummers show as much rhythm
and technical ability as anyone, yet do not
seem to enjoy as much prestige as the
other drummers.
Last but certainly not least, the
Spelmanites, who serve as our band’s
front, adds that touch of beauty and
feminimity that we find so refreshing and,
indeed, enjoyable.
Mr. Rod Smith, the band director, and
Troy Rane, the assistant band director,
have done an excellent job in making this
- as some of the upperclassmen have said -
"one of the best years yet.”
