Show r tSXXVKst SKZ6& &?dfa 9d SZUMwdt The second annual Crystal Crest Awards, Weber State's premiere awards and honors ceremony, will be held June 2, 1984, in the Austad Auditorium of the Browning Center beginning at 7:30 p.m. Sponsored by the Associated Students of Weber State College, the Crystal Crest tradition began last year with a spectacular entertainment and awards ceremony. The tradition continues this year in a pageant patterned after Hollywood's Oscar night. The awards program was brought into being out of a desire to honor, in a truly meaningful manner, those of the WSC community who have distinguished themselves above all others. Categories include such achievements as scholarship, talent, leadership, and instruction. There are five finalists, listed on the following pages, in each of the ten categories. There were almost three hundred total nominations and finalists were selected only after a rigorous screening process. While the method of selection varied from category to category, a uniform standard of excellence is maintained by each selection committee. The selection methods included questionnaires, personal interviews, and careful analysis of records. The awards will be presented by distinguished guest presenters (see p. 4). Punctuating the award presentations will be songs and dance numbers by the WSC Tangent Factor Band, the Weber State Singers, the Orchesis Dance Ensemble, and the Chantonelles. The special guest star is Al Hirt, known worldwide as the king of trumpet. Mr. Hirt was named Artist of the Year, has been credited with over 40 albums including four gold albums, and has received a Grammy award. He has traveled extensively in the course of his illustrious career and has performed before royalty and U.S. presidents. After the awards ceremony, President Rodney H. Brady will welcome students, faculty and the general public to the President's Ball. The Ball will start at 9:30 p.m. in the U.B. Ballroom. Best dress is required. The Crystal Crest ceremony is open to all students, faculty, staff, and the general public. Ticket prices are $5 for general admission and $3.50 for studentsfacultystaff. Tickets may be purchased at ZCMI and the WSC U.B. games area. '' v V ' Itaa |
