Over the summer,\u00a0we’ve been hard at work acquiring new materials for Special Collections, including the papers of Dennis Haskins, AKA Principal Richard Belding from Saved by the Bell<\/em>. Known for his catchphrase\u00a0\u201cHey, hey, hey, hey, hey, what is going on here?\u201d, Haskins played the role of Mr. Belding in Good Morning Miss Bliss<\/em> (19781989), Saved by the Bell<\/em> (1989-1993), and Saved by the Bell: The New Class<\/em> (1993-2000) for more than a decade.<\/p>\n

Before Haskins was a star in Hollywood, he was a very busy Moc.\u00a0Haskins reported for the student paper, acted in the Drama Club and Harlequins, served as entertainment chairman of the Student Government Association entertainment chairman, and distinguished himself as a member of the Blue Key Honor Fraternity and the Raven\u2019s Society. In fact, Dennis was a founding member of the Harlequins, a community theater group directed by Dorothy Hackett Ward. Not only did Haskins perform in plays, he also worked as a stage manager and authored original plays, including Movement without Words , written \u201cfor the students, by the students, and free.\u201d Dennis did not only devote himself to scholarly and acting pursuits. He also spent his time managing the local band Overland Express, who regularly performed at Yesterdays.<\/p>\n

As the Student Government\u00a0Association\u2019s entertainment\u00a0chairman, Dennis organized and\u00a0promoted events for students like\u00a0movies and concerts. In his SGA\u00a0role, Dennis brought Ike and Tina\u00a0Turner to UTC on April 7, 1973.\u00a0Haskins also leveraged his\u00a0membership in the Blue Key Honor Fraternity to organize an annual basketball game dubbed\u00a0\u201cFreaks vs. Fuzz\u201d which pitted the UTC \u201cFreaks\u201d against the \u201cFuzz,\u201d a team comprised of\u00a0members of the community like the city commissioners. The proceeds of the event funded two\u00a0scholarships to support the children of UTC and Chattanooga police officers. In addition to his\u00a0student government, acting, and academic pursuits, Haskins was a member of the basketball. In\u00a0fact, Haskins used some of the organizational skills that served him so well as the SGA\u00a0entertainment chairman to get important Mocs basketball games aired on local television station\u00a0WTVC 9.<\/p>\n

Since his UTC days, Haskins has gone on to have a successful career as an actor in film and television. He started his role as Mr. Belding with Good Morning, Miss Bliss<\/em>, which aired on the Disney Channel in 1988. The next year, NBC renamed the show Saved by the Bell<\/em>. Known for the catchphrase \u201cHey, hey, hey, hey, hey, what is going on here?\u201d, Haskins continued to play the role of Principal Belding until 2000 in Saved by the Bell: The New Class<\/em>, long after the original wrapped in 1993. After retiring the role of Richard Belding, Haskins appeared in several movies and television shows including It\u2019s Always Sunny in Philadelphia<\/em> and A Million Ways to Die in the West<\/em>.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
