CHRISTIAN SCHOMAKEW Staff Writer
Junior track and field sensation Julie
Symonds has received a lot of press lately.
She recently set a new school record
for the high jump with a leap of 5-7 3/4".
Once she reaches a jump of 5-9, she
will qualify for the NCAA nationals. To
do so is her immediate goal for her track
career.
Symonds tends to keep her
athletics goals in perspective flJjBMj
with the rest of her life. She |||
has planned, and thus far aecomplished,
a distinguished JiBr
athletics career while pursuing
a nursing degree and a J?\
commission in the Navy. In
the little spare time she has,
she participates with the Fellowship
of Christian Athletes. m
Last semester, Symonds ?
earned upper division stand- 5*1
ing in the College of Nursing
while maintaining Dean's List status.
Her academic excellence has earned her
Academic Ail-American honors.
Symonds, who has handled a 19-hour
class schedule all year, is amazed at her
accompusnments.
"I don't know how I do it," she quipped
"I really don't."
Symonds has decided to pursue a career
as a naval officer in addition to nursing.
She was selected to join the Navy's
