Ann and I restructured the staff, dissolving section editor positions in an attempt to reduce stress among the team. One position we did keep was that of Photo Editor. This person organized all the photographers with excellent skill. We extend special thanks to LaVita Westbrook. She calmly returned all our frantic last-minute calls, covering many events herself when there was no one else. We will miss her as she graduates this year. We also want to thank Dave Mirra, our wonderful sports photographer for ajob well done. He, too, graduates this year. We would also like to salute the Western Maryland Railway Historical Society. Our idea of showing the college where its name came from was fanned by the enthusiasm of this organization. We especially thank Robert Shives and Keith Stanley for sharing their books and photos with us. Lastly, we'd like to thank the staff, Chris Ashe, Scott Deitch, Mike Harris, and Mitchell Alexander. Without their help , and understanding, there would be no book. - I would personally like to thank Ann Bevans for her patience and congratulate her on her impending marriage. As Ann and I will he stepping down as editors, I hope that those staff members returning and any new members will work as hard ,... for the new editors as they have for us. Thanks to all those I couldn't specifically mention. Good luck, Lisa Colophon The 1996 Crossroads is the 84th edition of the yearbook of Western Maryland College.
