is in its 175th year and still growing and changing. And the story of Indiana University, Bloomington, begins. The moment when Gov. Jonathan Jennings placed his signature on a bill from the Indiana General Assembly Jan. 20, 1820, an educational institution was born. Known as Indiana Seminary, the institution opened its doors in 1824 with 13 students, and with one professor, Bavnard Rush Hall, to guide them in their higher education. These students' schedules consisted of Greek and Latin. They paid $5 per semester for tuition. Over the course of 175 years, Indiana Seminary grew into Indiana University, a campus of 35,594 students from all 50 states and nearly 100 countries. They studied more than 845 degree programs. Not all changes were favorable. The single-digit tuition quickly changed as well. University leadership changed throughout the university's history. The first president of the University, Andrew Wylie, was inaugurated in 1829, and upon the 175th year, a new president, Myles Brand, took office. Brand pushed for academic excellence, declaring that IU will become "America's new public University." His controversial proposal of the "Four-year plan," which would guarantee that students would complete a baccalaureate degree in fouryears if they follow specific guidelines, was one such plan toward this excellence. President Brand created controversy in other areas of the University as well. Brand received criticism from the decision to create a new Gay, Lesbian, Bisexual center. The office opened its doors on Jan. 27, and although public funds were already set aside for the center, Indiana State Rep. Woody Burton opposed the office. With this pressure, eventually Brand agreed that the center would be privately funded, which received protest from the area's gay community. The center was a step toward providing a more comfortable atmosphere for the University's diverse background of students. After the inauguration of the University's 16th president, Myles Brand, far uky„ilumni and students gather in Alumni Hall for the reception. Don Miller and Scott Erwin, (entitled executive chefs from South Bend, created the ice sculptures for the reception. Miller and Erwin spent 12 hours carving the sculptures with the added touch of the 173th anniversary logo.

Although the first woman, Sarah Parke Morrison, was accepted to the University in 1867, and in 1895, the first African-American student, Marcellus Neal, graduated from I U, accepting diversity still remained an issue on campus. But officials took steps to tackle the diversity issue. The University recognized Martin Luther King Day fkir the first time. Although classes were not canceled, professors excused students from class if they wanted to participate in campus celebrations. Also, for the first time, Ashton Residence Hall offered the Thomas I. Atkins Living Learning Center, an African-American center emphasizing academic achievement. But for any student, academic achievement was hard to come by when picking up classes, certainl y not a problem for those students in 1824 with only two subjects. Students who participated in Drop and Add in the Wildermuth gy m, complete \\ ith long lines and no guarantees, did so for the last time. Dropping and adding classes over the telephone through Automatic Course Exchange would soon be the norm. Not all changes the University implemented were welcome. Students protested the construction of a parking garage designed primarily for faculty and staff near Read Center, citing increased traffic and the loss of student parking spaces as major points of criticism. But students certainly could not complain about the wave of entertainment offered in Bloomington. Toni Amos, Indigo Girls and Toad the Wet Sprocket were sonic of the acts Union Board brought to campus. Students had plenty to cheer about w hen the men's soccer team reached the final game of the NCAA tournament, but the play ers' hopes for another national title were stopped short by a 1-0 loss to Virginia. The University continued to evolve change in its 175th year. It is clear these changes were built upon a solid past of service to the students, Eiculty and staff, and others in the Bloomington community, who have been the life force of the University . While a University is often seen as a campus with historical buildings, it becomes clear it is really the people and events that make that history possible.

President Myles Brand addresses the gay, lesbian and bisexual community about the new GLB support center, which opened its doors on Ian. 27. The question of whether the center should be publicly or privately funded stirred controversy across the campus as well as across the state.

administrators designated the week of Sept. 21-26 as Rape Awareness Week. "It's important to remember that just because I feel safe at night does not mean that the majority of the people on campus do. It's about time that this campus is aware of and does something about this problem," graduate student Bob Jones said. The week kicked off with the

15th annual "Take Back the Night" march Sunda y evening. Opening remarks were made by Toby Strout, director of the Middle Wa y House, to 350 supporters in Dunn Meadow. "Rape is not onl y a woman's problem, but a social problem," she began. She also said one woman is raped every six minutes in this country, and one in every tour will be a victim of rape.

needed to be done about rape." Following opening remarks, marchers took to Seventh Street and proceeded along Indiana Avenue and Kirkwood Avenue. The y cheered and displayed signs with such messages as "No means no" and "My body is not your toy." Marchers also shouted "What do we want? Safe streets! When do we want them? NOW!" Some marchers were offended

Other opening remarks were made by Charlotte Zietlow, director of Community Affairs for Planned Parenthood, and an unnamed IU student, "Jen," who shared her own story of rape. "I think her story set the mood for the evening," sophomore Kristen Vannatta said. "It was a very thought-provoking speech. It set the notion in people's minds that something

Her talk focused on her personal experiences but also highlighted the issues surrounding rape. "The reason that sexual assault is taken for granted is because it is so prevalent," she said. Other events hoped to deal with the survivors of rape and sexual assault. Workshops were held Tuesday at the Trinity Episcopal Church in an effort to provide support to victims who

by one of the chants, "Women unite! Take back the night!" because it was aimed just at women. Many wanted to change it to "People unite! Take back the night!" although this particular version never completely caught on among the crowd. The march ended at the courthouse where an open microphone was set up for participants to share their stories. Many related the story of a friend or a sister who had been raped, and some even related their own personal story. Others made suggestions for making the campus safer. These suggestions included more lighting and additional emergency telephones. "More needs to be done to put emergency phones on campus since there are only two," Vannatta said. "Women shouldn't have to be afraid." In addition to the march, several other events also took place throughout the week. Monday , Professor Susan Brison of Dartmouth College spoke at Whittenberger Auditorium. Brison, a rape and attempted murder victim, has written and lectured extensively about violence against women.

wanted to discuss their emotions. "These workshops are opportunities to provide them with support, a cushion for those individuals who have been victimized," said Suzanne Pauwels, cochair for Rape Awareness Week. The week came to a close Thursday evening with an intbrmation session on sexual assault. Darrell Ann Stone, crisis intervention services coordinator for the Middle Way House, spoke for an hour about the facts and myths surrounding rape. She pointed to the types of rape, tried to dispel the myths of the "model rapist" and "model victim" and pointed to long-term effects. "There's no difference between being raped and going through a windshield, except that afterward you're not afraid of cars, but half the human race," she said. Stone closed her speech by reminding the audience that Rape Awareness Week is not something that should just come and go. "Rape Awareness Week is every week of every year. Unfortunately, we live in a society that we have to be careful every night and every day," she said. in

conviction. The audience froze in a stunned silence. "Ganas is all von need," it continued. "G-a-n-a-s means desire. Ganas is a desire to work hard and to succeed. Ganas! That's all von need!" These words, spoken by Jaime Escalante, reverberated through the IU Auditorium, captivating the audience with their sincerity. Escalante, acclaimed teacher on whom the 1988 hit film "Stand and Deliver" was based, spoke these words to epitomize the goal of National Hispanic Heritage Month — a cultural awareness

butt during the month to celebrate our culture. It is our way to remember who we are." Throughout the month, Latino students expressed their culture through music, food, history and sport. Perhaps the greatest success among Latino students during National Hispanic Heritage Month was the Dia de la Raza, Oct. 12. The da y was a time to celebrate the different backgrounds of Latino culture. Both Latino and non-Latino students gathered at La Casa for an open house celebration of Hispanic unity. The y shared food, danced and listened to a jazz band. "One hundred people showed up and about 60 of them were

RITAGE brought about by a desire for improvement and success. "We chose to bring Jaime Escalante because he's Hispanic, but vet all people can relate to him, whether it's through his ideas about motivation or education," said senior Tema Moss, director of Union Board lectures committee. Escalantc's lecture was the .highlight of National Hispanic Heritage Month, which was celebrated from Sept. 15 to Oct. 16. It was not only a time to focus on Latino heritage, but it was a time to educate non-Latino students about Latino culture. "It's our month. We get to express ourselves more freely, and we get more publicity," freshman Edward Gonzalez said. "At IU, we're almost dumped in the middle of nothing," said Lillian Casillas, program adviser for La Casa, the Latino Culture Center. "We can't go anywhere to listen to our music or cat our kind of food. That's why we bust our

non-Latinos," Casillas said. "It really showed we were reaching out and educating others." National Hispanic Heritage Month came to a close during Parents' Weekend at La Casa, in which Latino students and their families gathered to share meals and tour the campus. Following the lunch at La Casa Saturday, Latino students and their Eimilies proceeded to the IU Auditorium to hear Escalantc speak on Latino issues. Escalantc, math and physics teacher, gained his fame while teaching at Garfield High School in Los Angeles. Through his dedication, Escalante transformed the school's academically lacking math program into the seventhhighest ranked program in the nation. His efforts earned him the title, "America's greatest teacher." Following an introduction by Moss, Escalantc took the stage. He opened by humbl y reminding the crowd that "I'm not a movie star

just a teacher." In addition to encouraging students to succeed, Escalantc described how when he arrived at Garfield both the students and the administration had given up. "Some maintained that Hispanic students weren't as smart. I found that to be completely wrong. (I believed) ... that they would rise or fall to the level of expectations around them," he said. He then discussed his teaching methods and means of motivation, which included discipline, respect and a positive self-image. But he stressed the key to success was practice and that success led to self-confidence. Escalante also said he would never give up as an educator. "Even though a kid doesn't usuall y give me feedback, I wait," he said. He continued, "I will always wait." Bowing politely at the end of his lecture, Escalante said, "I'm proud to be a teacher!" Following the lecture, freshman Rosa Martinez said, "I admire all the techniques he used for motivation. It's true that a lot of teachers don't care. We need more teachers like Escalante that take the time for us." "Escalante seems like more than just a teacher, he seems like a good friend," freshman Daniel Lugo said. "A good teacher should be a good friend, too." After the lecture, Casillas drove Escalantc to the Indianapolis Airport. "I was in awe the whole time. I wished the airport was farther away," she said. Casillas came back in time to decorate La Casa for the final celebration — a dance for students and their families. The dance gave students the opportunity to show parents their "home away from home" as well as enjoy Latino music and dance. As the festivities came to a close Saturday evening, Casillas said, "Hopefully, the education process does not end, even though the celebration ends tomorrow."

DANCERS RAISE RECORD-BREAKING "It is really helping kids and it is only 36 hours of your life. You suffer a little bit, but nothing compared to them."

DONATION 22 Calendar

Michael tulim Standing away from a crowd of dancers, twoand-a-half-year-old Chas Lunseth, outpatient at Riley Hospital for Children, plays with a balloon at Dance Marathon. Patients of the hospital attended the event to support the dancers.

So keep working hard for those sick little ones And know deep in your heart that good's being done. Because what you are doing helps make miracles each day. For you give of yourselves in an unselfish tray." Participants in the timrth annual Dance Marathon kept these words of their creed close to heart the weekend of Oct. 14-16 while they were raising money for the Riley Hospital for Children in Indianapolis. The goal of the Marathon, which was met, was to raise more than S i 00,000 to be donated to Riley Hospital for Children. The donation helped defer the costs of the $40 million construction of an infectious disease center named after AIDS victim and Hoosier Ryan White. "The best part of the weekend was at 8 a.m. on Sunda y when they announced the amount of mone y that was raised," junior Melissa Pogue, member of Alpha Delta Pi sorority, said. "All the kids and parents were clapping and crying when the y heard the amount we raised." The success of the event, totaled at $101,000, topped the combined donations of past,years. The first Dance Marathon in 1991 raised $11,000, in 1992 it raised $23,000, and last year's pulled in more than $66,000. "This year is fantastic," said senior Jason 'rest, president of the ILI Dance Marathon committee. "We have gotten so much participation." More than 1,000 dedicated participants, from dancers to committee members, began planning and organizing the event immediately following last year's marathon. The goal of each of the 500 dancers was to raise $200. To do this, dancers wrote

letters to Eimil y and friends, participated in miss-a-meal programs through their dorms and obtained pledges. A Climb for Kids and Mass Canning Extravaganza were also held to raise additional funds. At the Sept. 25 Climb for Kids, participants organized into groups and raced to the top of Memorial Stadium. A $3 donation was asked of all participants. Participants also collected mone y at the Oct. 1 home football game. This Mass Canning Extravaganza solicited donations from spectators entering the game. "This year we did a lot more for Dance Marathon. We sent cards to the kids, went to visit them and made banners. As a sorority, we also raised more money," Pogue said. But the focus of the fundraising was the 36-hour dance held at the 1U Fieldhouse. Beginning at 8 p.m. Oct. 14, dancers tested their endurance during the marathon by being allowed to stop for only meal breaks. During these breaks, participants could eat, use the restroom or rejuvenate themselves. "I am not tired, just sore," senior Cathi McKellar said Saturday afternoon. "I am looking forward to being able to eat so I can sit down." But despite the physical exhaustion and temporary pain, all of the dancers agreed that the benefits of their efforts far outweighed the inconveniences. It is really helping kids and it is onl y 36 hours of your life. You suffer a little bit, but nothing compared to them," sophomore Valerie Ziegler said. Many of the dancers in fact had the opportunity to interact with the children fin- whom the money was being raised. They talked with children, played games with them or participated in any other activity they wished.

nelittle girl came up to me and we began talking," freshman Kim McIntire said. "She brought her bubble solution so we blew bubbles together for a while. It was a very touching experience." "There was a little bo y named Vincent, who I also spent time with at last year's marathon," Pogue said. "He has cerebral palsy, but this year when I saw him, his condition was much better. He was much more attentive, and I was happy to sec that he was doing better." Test agreed the presence of the children and their families kept the dancers going. "It is such a morale booster to see the children they arc helping," he said. The morale committee organized other events to encourage the dancers. The y held ice-breakers, taught countr y line dancing and made games such as putt-putt and basketball available. In addition, a comed y troupe and several dance groups performed throughout the weekend. Twelve local bands, including Shade, Naildrivcrs, Situation Grey and the Housemarvs also performed for free. Senior Amy Nevin, entertainment director, said the bands were extremely supportive of their cause. "It says a lot about the Bloomington music scene," Nevin said. From the bands to the committee members to the dancers, participants agreed that the Dance Marathon was a worthwhile experience, not only because of the amount of money it raised, but for the number of lives it touched. ei

he sea of red and white rises to their feet, arms held high. A quick inhalation of anticipation sweeps Memorial Stadium as the ball flies through the air — only to hit the ground with a reverberating thud. The crowd and team moan as the game slowly slips away. Unfortunately, members of the Hoosier football team were unable to regain control of the Oct. 23 Homecoming game as they suffered a 20-7 loss to the Northwestern Wildcats. Although this loss closed the Homecoming weekend on a somber note, spirit ran high through the events preceding the game. Alumni, students, faculty and special guests worked to bring out the "red hot" spirit of Homecoming festivities. Student Alumni Council helped to bolster this spirit by encouraging student organizations to participate in Homecoming events. To do this, the council established a system in which groups earned spirit points through participation in a banner competition, a window decorating contest, the Homecoming parade and "Yell Like Hell." Senior Beth Miller, president of Student Alumni Council, said, "It was a very successful weekend — quite possibly the best we've ever had. There were a lot of organizations that participated even though they hadn't in the past. It was great!" Celebration began Thursday

Michael Julius as "Yell Like Hell" kicked off the festivities. Only in its second year, this skit competition was designed to get sororities and fraternities excited about Homecoming. Participants performed three minute skits in an attempt to incorporate the "red hot" theme into their performances. Between acts, nationally known comedian Mark Kline entertained the crowd. "The skits were really creative," junior Meredith Pasekoff, a member of Alpha Epsilon Phi, said. "This is such a great way for sororities and fraternities to show their Homecoming spirit." Chi Omega sorority and Alpha Epsilon Pi fraternity won the "Yell Like Hell" competition. Judges and the crowd's response measured by the "Crowd-0Meter" determined the winner. The celebration continued Friday with the 36th annual Homecoming parade. Fire engines, the Marching Hundred Band, the Redsteppers and Varsity Cheerleaders led 75 floats representing campus organizations from the Willkie Quadrangle to their final destination, the Student Building, on Indiana Avenue. The paper flames and bales of hay that decorated the Baptist Student Union's float earned it first place for the "Best Use of Homecoming Theme." The Union Board float was named the "Bcst Overall Float Based on Craftsmanship" and Delta Sigma Theta sorority was honored as the best marching group.

But the excitement did not last long as Northwestern took the football team and a crowd of 39,208 lo yal tans b y surprise with its victory over the Hoosiers. "The whole reason we scheduled Northwestern for Homecoming is because we were supposed to beat them, and we can't even do that," senior Donnell Miller said.

lthough Bloomington is considered to be a liberal community by Indiana's conservative standards, right-wing viewpoints were well represented this fall when two big name conservatives, William F. Buckley Jr. and Judge Robert Bork, spoke at the 1U Auditorium. "This [was] a great opportunity for conservatives here to hear someone who influenced their time," said sophomore Nadine Wichern, president of Young Americans for Freedom. Sept. 28, Buckle y , a conservative columnist and political commentator, raised a series of "propositions" for his audience about political problems, ranging from President Bill

Clinton's domestic policies to education. Speaking in the East Coast intellectual voice that made him famous on the television show "Firing Line," he educated his listeners on current issues. "I thought he was very eloquent," said senior Mary Ann Hughs, describing his speaking style as soft and captivating. "His ideas flowed. He was easy to understand and to the point." But despite Buckley's smooth style of speaking, his comments were sprinkled with the cynicism for which he was so notorious. "Only 20 percent of the American people have confidence in the government," he said. "I wonder what percentage have confidence in the American people."

Buckley also spent a large amount of time discussing Clinton's failures as a president. "The mood of the country is visibly that of a country dissatisfied with the president, Congress and the government," he said. He attacked Clinton's tendency to be more concerned with the federal level of government rather than the state level. Worrvin !._1, about "how is Washington going to handle this," and not "how Indianapolis would handle this," places the focus at the wrong level of government, Buckley said. He was particularly critical of Clinton's attempts at welfare refOrm at the national level, suggesting local governments are better equipped to deal with social problems. He also questioned Clinton's credibility, adding people are realizing much of what the president has to say is double talk. "He has stretched to the breaking point [of] his bonds of believabilit y ," Buckley said. "After listening to his budget proposal, I felt the need to claw my way back up to the logical world." While Buckley raised controversy surrounding the executive branch of the national government, Judge Robert Bork chose to attack the judicial system and the philosophies of law schools around the country on his Nov. 15 visit. He accused law schools of teaching only liberal views and of not teaching strict adherence to the Constitution. His assertions offended many of the law students in the audience. "[Conservatives like Bork] try to make themselves sound like they are just sticking to the law. But they still have just as much of a political agenda as the liberals they malign," second-year law student Joy Bertrand said. He stressed the importance of literal interpretation of the Constitution. "If you don't stick to what the people meant in the Constitution, then where does the judge get his or her law?" Bork asked. "A judge who looks outside of the historical Constitution looks inside

himself— nowhere else." But some audience members disagreed. "How does he know what the framers originally intended?" second-year law student Vandana Pathak said. Bork also relied on the Clintons as comic relief in his speech. Feigning embarrassment, he admitted to the audience that both Bill and Hillary Clinton were in his law classes when he taught at Yale University in the 1960s. "I no longer say they were my students; I say they were in the room," he said. Bork is best recognized as Ronald Reagan's first nominee to the Supreme Court in 1987.

rejected his nomination. "I knew what it was at the time; it was a political fight, and I wasn't even bitter then," he said at a press conference before his speech. "I enjoy myself more day to da y than I would have on the court." Both speakers were solicited by College Republicans, Young Americans for Freedom and Union Board. Last year Union Board was accused of extreme liberalism by the College Republicans when it refused to fund conservative politician Pat Buchanan as a speaker. After four College Republicans were recently elected to the group though, the lecture series began reflecting the right wing also. "I view Buckley and Bork's

john bancroft He casually but briskly enters his sparsely furnished office. As he nudges his rolled sleeves further up his arms, he adjusts his glasses. He clears his throat and then gives a soft, candid smile. ComfOrtably seating himself, he gives a short clap of his hands and enthusiastically asks, "Well, where do we begin?" in his thick Scottish accent. Dr. John Bancroft \\ ill surel y use this eager, candid and confident manner to tackle his new position as director of the Kinsey Institute fOr Research in Sex, Gender and Reproduction. "I'm eager to begin. I've set myself an ambitious target even though I'll only be here for six years. But I don't like to 1-1111, and this position poses positive pressures — it gives me sort of a buzz though," Bancroft said. Bancroft was appointed to the director position of the Institute Ma y 1 by IU Vice President for Research and Dean of Graduate School George Walker following selection b y a search committee of facult y and administration in Bloomington and Indianapolis, which called qualified candidates over the country and beyond. Dr. Jeff Alberts, Assistant Dean for Research, said upon reconvening, the committee discovered unanimous astonishment at Bancroft's qualifications. Alberts said, "He is eminentl y qualified. We couldn't do better." Bancroft followed the controversial directorship of Dr. June Reinisch, but spoke of the appropriateness of t011owing in her role. Reinisch retired prematurely after allegations which cited that Reinisch engaged in unprofessional conduct, misused funds and failed to respond to the need for AIDS research. "Dr. Reinisch transformed what was a moribund establishment into a modern and well-equipped institute. I think the collections are now m uch C better catered for, although there arc still problems to be overcome. It is appropriate for me to be able to follow her the director's role," Bancroft said. Bancroft hoped to continue to promote the emphasis on an interdisciplinary approach to human sexualit y that Reinisch introduced, but also had several new interests of his own. "In many respects, I have a ver y different approach, and [I] will be focusing much less on public education and much more on the science. In

addition, I will be introducing a clinical component, which has not previously existed at the Kinsey Institute," he said. This clinical component stemmed from Bancroft's expertise in the 19 y ears he has specialized in reproductive biology. Prior to the appointment, he supervised a staff of researchers in the Behavior Research Group at the Medical Research Council in Edinborough, Scotland. In addition, he specialized in sexual research for 30 years as a ps y chiatric medical doctor. He described his researching interests: "Initiall y , I was more involved in behavioral modification of sexual behavior, and in more recent years, I have been more engaged in understanding the relationship between reproductive hormones and behavior, women's reproductive health as it relates to sexuality and wellbeing, and the neurobiology of male sexual response." He said, "There is nothing I enjo y more than doing research and making sense of the data I obtain." But he also said his new administrative position did not allow him to do as much research as he did in the past. "Mv task here is extremely unique — I'll still he able to work at my research but I will supervise, too. That's why I like it so much," he said. But, research was onl y one of the primary goals he set for his directorship. He organized a Collections Advisory Board to help make decisions concerning the Kinsey collections, the library services and the information services of the Institute. He also planned to start two clinical services in Indianapolis, one for sexual problems and the other for menstrual c y cle related problems. He hoped these clinics would eventually provide a database of information for research in addition to the counseling services the clinics will provide. He mentioned the challenges of his directorship would include meeting these goals, finding- the funding for all of his research and responding to the recent attempts to discredit the early works of founder Alfred Kinsey. But he added, "I've got a lot of experience with having a lot of balls in the air at the same time."ri

ivil Rights Activist. Minister. Family Man. Leader. Hero. The image of Martin I miler King Jr. is all these things and more to members of this campus. To honor his memory, IU recognized Martin Luther C King Jr.'s birthday as an official University holiday for the first time in its history . Although IU did not close its doors Jan. 16, it allowed students to be excused from classes if they wished to attend the University-sponsored celebrations. As Dean of Afro-American Ali-lairs, Lawrence Hanks thought that the absence of a King day celebration was a major omission from the IU calendar. "Everyone I talked to thought it was something we should do, but no proposal had ever gone forth," he said. The celebration's activities, which began the evening of Jan. 12, and ran through Jan. 16, included a public speaking and essay contest, a King Day breakfast, a convocation and a lecture. The public speaking and essay contest, held at 7 p.m. Jan. 12 in the Frangipani Room of the Indiana Memorial Union, kicked off the celebration. During winter break, contestants submitted essays dedicated to the intellectual significance of King's life and ideals. Authors of the top six submissions read their works at the competition and were evaluated on their public speaking ability. The winner of the contest, junior Erica Hart, a psychology major, focused her essay on the goals of education firr AfricanAmericans. She said, "Our task as we f'ace the turn of the century is to re-evaluate and redefine ourselves as a people. The new definition of Negro must embody academic excellence." Hart's winning essay was also read on King's birthday during the leadership breakfast in the Tudor Room of the IMU. Chancellor Kenneth Gros Louis presided at the breakfast with remarks made by Hanks, convocation speaker David Garrow and keynote speaker Robert Franklin. Franklin, associate profi:ssor of ethics and society at Emory University in Atlanta, is most well

known for his book, "Liberation Visions,- which compares the visions of several Afro-American leaders including King. His remarks at the breakfhst focused on the lessons mankind can learn from King's teachings. "King was a stellar, classic leader who was skillffil in wearing the narratives of human possibility ," Franklin said. He also said the lessons We can learn from King include an "ability to move together to solve problems" and a "commitment to create community by orchestrating practical and tangible things." The highlight of the celebration was the noon convocation Jan. 16 at the Musical Arts Center that attracted a diverse

crowd of students, teachers, professionals and families. Guest speakers included Garrow and Franklin. Members of the AfroAmerican Choral Ensemble and the instrumental ensemble from the School of Music also perfiwmed. A text from Dr. King's last Sunday morning sermon on Passion Sunday of 1968 was delivered during the instrumental and set the stage for Franklin's keynote address. He focused his speech on King's ability to relate to diverse groups of people and his enduring vision of democracy and equality of all Americans. "King urges us to be a stranger to no culture, to be open-minded, and to be at home in all cultures," Franklin said.

To conclude his speech, Franklin pointed out that eradicating violence was one of King's major concerns. He stressed violence was a problem before King's death and still remains to be solved. Repeating King's own words, Franklin said, "You must convince your comrades that the person who does not hit back is the strong one. To return violence for violence does nothing but intensify the extremes of violence and evil in the universe." To conclude the day's celebration, approximately 40 members of the Black Student Union gathered at 6 p.m. to participate in a march to honor King's memory . The march,

sponsored by the NAACP, began at the Black Culture Center and ended at Showalter Fountain and included stops such as President Myles Brand's home. Marchers lit candles and sang songs including the Black National Anthem. In planning future King Day

rocessionals, ceremonial garb, trumpeters and numerous speeches should have been the first clue that .ioniething big was going on at the I U Auditorium. Indeed, with all of its pageantry , Jan. 19 was quite a day . Not onl y did the University honor tradition with the celebration of its 175th anniversary , but it celebrated the inauguration of its 16th and newest president, Myles Brand. Brand's inauguration was a celebration that included faculty, administrators and a host of invited guests. Mendelssohn's "Athalie" initiated the ceremony as IU Grand Marshal Joseph Waldman paraded billed faculty members and administrators down the aisles of the Auditorium. The IU Herald Trumpeters also participated in the fanfare as they performed for Brand. Brand, himself clothed in a crimson gown, was given a golden mace, the s y mbol of University dignity and the chain of Investiture, the emblem or the University presidenc y as he was officiall y inaugurated. He had been serving as president since Aug. 1, but the official ceremony was dela y ed in order to combine it with the 175th anniversary. But before Brand delivered his inaugural speech, he received accolades from several officials including Indiana Lt. Governor Frank O'Bannon, Bloomington Mayor 'Fomi Allison and

Bloomington Facult y Council President Paul Eisenburg. Eisenburg represented the tone of the kudos. He said Brand would take IU to "greater greatness" in the 21st century than it had experienced in its first 175 years. Re y . Barbara Carlson, the minister at the Unitarian Universalist (Liurch of Bloomington, likewise bestowed IU's newest president with praise. "This is the celebration of the one who has been chosen to guide this University ," she said. "Grant that he may lead with health, vigor and joy." Brand then began his speech with an attack on Americans' diminishing commitment to making the world a better place fOr their children. Caring about what future generations inherit is not merel y practical, Brand said, but a "moral obligation." But today's Americans have made it clear that the next generation's success is not a high priority , Brand said. "Too man y of us are prone, more. so now than in the past, to favor today over tomorrow ... " he said. This can be seen b y lower contributions to charitable organizations, rising levels of consumer debt and a general willingness to sacrifice the future to enjoy the present, he said. But one way to renew this obligation to the future is to invest in higher education, Brand said. Lie believes higher education holds the ke y to America's future. A college education gives men and

women one of the most important things to succeed, the capacity for continual learning. -When we use our personal resources to help our children attend college, and equall y , when we appropriate public fUnds for higher education through our elected officials, we are acting to fulfill our obligation," he said. Brand said IU has done an impressive job of being committed to the values of higher education set out b y the state constitution. He said he hopes to build on FU's achievements by, among other things, enhancing its role within the state, increasing student graduation rates, adding more minority faculty and students and malting the University as a whole more fiscall y efficient. Brand said I U's growth will only help people of this generation

and those of future generations. "Our task will not be easy," he said. "But building on the excellence we have inherited, we can be optimistic about what we, in turn, will be able to accomplish in fulfilling our obligations to coming generations." Following Brand's address, the fanfare gave way to a party atmosphere during a reception in Alumni Hall in the Indiana Memorial Union. Red and white balloons floated on the ceiling, and an ice sculpture of the IU 175th Anniversary logo adorned the back wall. A six-piece band welcomed everyone with "Back Home Again in Indiana" as lines of people waited to greet Brand and his wife, Peg. Participants and audience members said the ceremony was deserving of the regal treatment.

Searching for a

ome by Michael Nichols

Red, yellow, green and blue balloons hovered in the corners of the room while soft music echoed above the constant chatter. People coming in from the rain were welcomed with coffee and conversation. Administrators in business suits shook hands and smiled, students hugged each other and made introductions, and a few nervous onlookers stood quietly alone and stared at the floor. They were people from different walks of life celebrating a common victory. Jan. 27, six y ears after an IUSA resolution recommended it, the office for Gav, Lesbian and Bisexual Student Support Services opened its doors for the first time. The center was located in the Student Annex at 705 E. Seventh St. "I see this as a place to build bridges," said Doug Bauder, coordinator of the GLB office. Armed with a rainbow flag on the door, Bauder was happ y with the attendance of more than 300 people, both gay and straight, to the GLB office open house. It was a day that many thought would never come. During the fall semester, when plans were being finalized for the GLB office, controvers y arose as Indiana Rep. Woody Burton opposed the office and threatened to cut I U's budget by 5500,000. His argument, and that of campus groups such as Young Americans for Freedom and College Republicans, \N-as that the office should not be funded publicl y b y the University , and t hus by taxpa yers, but rather privately through donations. This stance put President M y les Brand, an open advocate of the GLB office, into the position of mediator between gay ad\ ocacv groups and politicians. "I think this university needs to support all of its

students," said Brand at the Oct. 6 IUSA meeting. "The key here is that we have certain services that must be offered and I won't back down. The Gay, Lesbian and Bisexual office will provide needed support." Brand discussed the opposition of local politicians and how he hoped to deal with it. "There arc some persons, Woody Burton is one, but there may well be others in the state, elected or not, who are entirely disagreeable to that point of view and may want to take steps against it," he said. "We'll settle that, if necessary, in the statehouse. But I would prefer to settle it through discussion and coming to a better understanding of what our

present needs are for this office." Brand was confident that discussing the "whys" of the office with those against it would convince them of its need on campus. But Brand did not specifically speak to the funding of the office, and when Burton, among others, contested the use of public funds, Brand was forced to agree to private funding of the office. A new gay advocacy group, Zero Tolerance, believed Brand's decision was simply made as a concession to politicians and opposition and was in contradiction to his continued previous statements necessitating the office.

"When I came out, it was the hardest year of my life, but then I found my community. With this office, we can support each other in love, peace and in what we are. That's the greatest magic of all." — Joe McKesson, senior

A CLOSER LOOK

"People make the assumption that it's a big psychological thing to be gay, and it is, but the majority of us don't need psychological counseling, we need each other, we need permission to be Doug Bauder, coordinator, GLB office ourselves." The group, formed b y combining- alread y intact ga y groups including QUEST, OUT and Lesbian Avengers, felt a more aggressive stance was needed to acquire public funding. Efforts included letter s\ riling campaigns and sit-ins at the offices of Trustees during a week-long protest, Oct. 9-13, outside the president's office. "It's not President Brand's or even Wood y Burton's fault that there's homophobia," said Jerem y Crouch, vice-chair of College Republicans, "Brand is doing the best thing he can do to keep it together and to keep everyone happy. He's between a rock and a hard place. He's still tr y ing to get the GLB office through, and he's doing a great job." Crouch said he supported Brand's decision to make the office privatel y funded. "We can't change the views of Indiana by throwing money to ga y s at IU." Crouch argued the office was not needed, that support for homosexuals on campus was alread y available through CaPS (Counseling and Psychological Services) the GLB Hotline and the GLB AntiHarassment Team. "An ytime we have special interests on campus it's dangerous. College Republicans stress diversity and special interests groups segment that diversit y ," he said. Crouch said he is not against homosexualit y personally and has man y gay friends. "I've learned to separate the personal and professional aspects of this issue." "I think Jerem y 's comments speak of some of the ignorance that's out there," Bauder said. "He defines political in a limited way , he doesn't realize the political realities of being ga y ." Even so, Bauder welcomed Crouch at the opening as Crouch s y mbolicall y donated Si to the office. But ('roach's argument was onl y one of the man y that formed the opposition against the center opening. Debate also centered around the sources of funding for the office. Bauder said this debate Was just a tactic to slow the process down, if not destro y it altogether. "Burton was grandstanding, it was a political maneuver," Bauder said. "I'm sure for sonic of those who protested public funding, it was the onl y issue the y were upset about. But for the majority of those in opposition, it was a co y er for the hatred and fear regarded towards homosexuals b y mainstream society." In response to opposition based on the preface that the office was not needed, Bauder said although CaPS and the Anti-Harassment Team are useful, only people comfbrtable with their sexuality typicall y use those outlets for support. "One who is not ga y , lesbian or bisexual cannot begin to understand the level of distrust we have toward traditional institutions, whether it be CaPS or a church," Bauder said. "People make the assumption that it's a big psychological thing to be ga y , and it is, but the majorit y of us don't need psychological counseling, we need each other, we need permission to be ourselves." B y having an office specificall y designed for GLB

students, Bauder said students who aren't as confident in their sexuality would have a place to go without worrying about being found out or judged. "The empowerment is across the board, but most specificall y I see our services for the frightened, the struggling, the disoriented individual who isn't as brave to sa y 'this is who I am.'" "I think the office empowers those of us who are out, but more importantl y it gives confidence to those who aren't," junior Dawn Weinschrott said. "When I came out, it was the hardest year of m y life, but then I found my communit y ," senior Joe McKesson said. "With this office, we can support each other in love, peace and in what we arc. That's the greatest magic of all." Bauder said the primary role of the office was to provide support and education through group discussions in dorms, classrooms or one on one to all IU students. "That includes those of us who are gay, lesbian and bisexual. But we're also here for the heterosexual students and a fair number of heterosexuals have alread y come in," Bauder said. He said that in the first month of operation, the office made about 209 connections with people needing support or education. Not all of them were 1101110SC "I'm all for it. I think it's reall y sad that an y part of a person has to live in the dark," sophomore Natalie Schruben said. Schruben said she had a friend who was ga y and knew what he went through in coping with his sexualit y . "He used to tell me that he couldn't even hold hands with his boy friend in a dark movie theater, he was reall y afraid." "I don't see an y thing wrong with it, as long as they don't put an y bod y else down for who the y are and for not being gay , I think the y should be able to do what the y want," junior Dave Baugh said. "We have a lot of heterosexual allies out there who want to learn how to be supportive, for either their gay friends or famil y ," Bauder said. But despite the welcomed support from heterosexuals, he didn't rule out the possibility of further opposition after the office opened. "There's one-third of the communit y s\ ho are in flivor of us being here, one-third never will be and another one-third are willing to listen. If we win Over the middle, it doesn't mean we won't still get rocks thrown at us," Bauder said. "It's still such a controversial issue for so man y , and I don't know when the time will come when we work ourselves out of a job."

Outside of Ballantine Hall, onlookers gather to watch and participate in the fall Kiss-In sponsored by OUT. The purpose of the Kiss-In was to promote awareness of the needs of the gay, lesbian and bisexual community.

Until that time comes, Bauder and his part-time associate Carol Fischer keep bus y answering phone calls, planning group discussions with dorms and classrooms and planning the future of the office. A peer counseling program was organized fbr summer, and the office hopes to have a fully stocked library of books and videos by September. Since its opening, donations have come through for the office. As of February, $1,500 above the $50,000 of public funds originally allocated from IU last fall was donated by alumni and Indiana residents. The rest of the future funding for the center, however, will consist entirely of private donations. And since its

opening, the office has worked closely with La Casa, cultural center for Latinos Unidos of IU, the Black Culture Center and the International Center to cross some of the bridges between minorities on campus. "There's a point when we need to work not in isolation but in coordination with others," Bauder said. "This is the real world and we are not a majority in it." He also said understanding this was the key to the GLB office. "Part of our lifelong journey is to find home, to find understanding and acceptance that we didn't have growing up, or maybe that some of us don't even have now. That's what we're here for," he said. in

CEREMONY HONORS MUSICAL

"[Ging°ld] developed brilliant artists. The School of Music and the world of music are stronger from knowing him."

MEMORY

ot an empty scat was found Feb. 13 at the Musical Arts Center. Students, faculty, alumni of the School of Music and friends of Josef Gingold gathered to honor the late professor and musician, who died Jan. 11 at the age of 85. Gingold was a distinguished professor emeritus of music at IU for 35 years. The ceremony opened with two of Gingold's violin recordings. The first was recorded in 1942, and the other was recorded in 1976 with the Dean of the School of Music, Charles Webb, on piano. Many closed their eyes as Gingold's music filled the room with melodic memories. The people crowded against the walls touched hands, the people sitting down reached to pat each others shoulders, and every face told a different Gingold story. The ceremony proceeded with remarks from IU President Myles Brand. Brand referred to Gingold as a "unique genius, master musician and gentle human being." Brand said Gingold represented the best of the University's School of Music and is a model for all to admire. The memorial continued with a piece by Johnannes Brahms. The stage was set up with a piano and four chairs to accommodate graduate student Corey Cerovsek on violin, and faculty members Gyorgy Sebok on piano, Miriam Fried on violin, Paul Biss on viola and Janos Starker on cello. Professor Starker referred to Gingold as a "mentor and lifelong influence. A true concertmaster." One piece, by Henri Wieniawski, was performed by Joshua Bell, renowned violinist and former student of Gingold who received his Artist's Diploma. Bell studied with Gingold from 1980-1989. His daily lessons were usually three hours long. But he said Gingold "was not a taskmaster ... he taught out of his pure enjo y ment of music." Bell said Gingold was the main influence on his decision to pursue a musical career. He was inspired by just hearing Gingold play. Webb said Gingold made magnificent contributions to the

world of music, and no student was too young or inexperienced to be taught by Gingold. "[He] developed brilliant artists. The School of Music at IU and the world of music are stronger from knowing him." The ceremony ended with Samuel Barber's "Adagio for Strings." All of the violinists were former Gingold students. About 100 peri-Ormers went on stage to play their respects to Gingold. The performance was intense, as the bows of the violas, violins, cellos and basses moved with the care and love of music Gingold taught. Gingold had taught in the School of Music since 1960, when former music school dean, Dr. Wilfred Bain brought him to IU. He become a professor of violin, and earned his title as Distinguished Professor Emeritus. He was also a member of musical juries worldwide, and in 1982, founded the International Violin Competition of Indianapolis, in which he chose the jurors, established the competition's forum and globally set the standards for future competitions. Before teaching at IU, Gingold had also collected man y musical accolades. He was a member of the NBC Symphony Orchestra in 1937. Seven years later he became the concertmaster of the Detroit Symphony, and went on to be the concertmaster of the Cleveland Orchestra in 1947 until 1960. Because of the wide range of his musical accomplishments, Bain said Gingold had professional friendships all over the world. He regarded Gingold as a "superior person and musician, a real husband and father." He also said Gingold thought of his students as family and did not want any student to be frightened of him because of his professional status. Every person who spoke of Gingold told stories of his kindness as both a friend and a teacher. Webb said he "experienced real music for the first time" with Gingold. "Gingold will live forever as long as people make music," Webb said. in

Gingold Memorial 47

team cinzano The annual Little 500 men's race was not the "World's Greatest College Weekend" for independent team Cinzano. Because of a new rule enacted b y the IU Student Foundation, Category 2 riders would no longer be allowed to compete in the race. The ban made six riders ineligible to race and greatly affected sonic of the traditionally strong teams. Team Cinzano could not even field a team because the ban affected two of its riders, sophomore Steve Logan and junior Jason Pierce, and destroyed its chalices of a competitive team. Logan missed the race his freshman year because of a tendon injury and hoped to return to compete with Cinzano. But unless IUSF changes the rule, he will never race in a Little 500. "There are so man y other factors going into the race that being a Category 2 rider doesn't play as big of a role as people think. I don't think IUSF reall y realizes that," Logan said. The United States Cycling- Federation ranks riders from Categor y 1 to 5 based on their frequency of racing, their placement in national races and their experience, with Categor y 1 representing the most exceptional cyclists. IUSF issued the rule banning riders registered under the USCF's Category 2 to make the race a fair competition and to make riders feel they can participate without being intimidated. "We have seen a decrease in participation, and a lot of teams that had been participating in the past had a feeling that they didn't have a chance to win," IUSF Director Rita Erickson said. "There were so many far superior riders on the track, and it was becoming a race of individuals rather than teams." Erickson said the Category 2 riders who were affected did not understand IUSF's mission and why they even had the Little 500. "Our mission is to provide an opportunity for any undergraduate to be involved in an intramural activity that raises mone y for for working scholarships students," Erickson said. Pierce was one of those riders who was caught in the middle, and he will never know what it feels like to win Little 500. "The only reason I started racing USCF was to improve, so I'd have more of a chance to win

Little 5. By cutting us off a year earl y , the y 're taking away my chance to do that," Pierce said. "There has been a lot of good riders who didn't ' y in until their senior year. I don't have a chance unless something changes." Both Pierce and Logan moved from Category 4 to Category 2 in one year. Logan said that if a rider competes in a race every weekend and scores in the top half of the competitors, he or she would be a Category 2 rider by the end of the racing year. "I've worked so hard at this, and I've never gotten any recognition," Logan said. "It's nice to walk to class and have people say, 'Hey aren't you riding Little 5 for team Cinzano?' Now people say that, and I just get reall y sad." Cinzano planned to continue to talk with IUSF, to write letters and to contact the media in order to try and have the rule revoked. Cinzano also did not allow an y other riders to participate with the name in order to make people aware of the rule and think about what was happening to eligibility of riders. Logan and Pierce did not think IUSF realized how much Category 2 riders help the race. They help break up the pack and therefore, reduce accidents. Logan and Pierce said that just because someone was a good road racer, it does not mean they were going to do well in Little 500. Logan believed that if there was an attempt to make the race fair, IUSF would limit the money spent by teams to train. Cinzano had a budget of $500 last year, and the y had to find sponsorship. "Some teams have spent $10,000. One of their resources is money, and one of our resources is that we have always been able to get quality riders," Logan said. "The most important thing for us as team Cinzano is that we just like to ride. The recognition is nice, but not important, the money is nice, but not important. Fifteen thousand people watching you is great, but not the most important thing," Logan said. "I just love to ride, and it's sad when someone tells you that you can't do an ything, especiall y something you enjoy so much." in

umanist. Socialist. Liberal. These words have been used to describe author and critic Kurt Vonnegut many times. But when Union Board hosted "An Evening with Kurt Vonnegut" March 1 at the H Auditorium, students weren't exactl y sure what to expect. "I expected Vonnegut to be a sensationalist. He was definitely thought-provoking, but his arguments weren't just sensational — he backed them up," freshman Elizabeth Skomp said.

came to the University to give his speech, "How to Get a Job Like Mine." But he admitted the topic turned into a speech on some random thoughts and ideas of his. Vonnegut is responsible for writing "Slaughterhouse Five," "Cat's Cradle" and "The Sirens of Titan." He told the audience his books are about "ordinar y people trying to behave decentl y in an indecent society." Vonnegut continued to say his books are written intuitively and reflectively, but because he is now in his 70s, he admitted he no longer has as much time to reflect. Instead, he spends most of his time lecturing,. But sophomore Alix Miczulski, a fan of his books, appreciated the insight of Vonnegut's speaking and writing skills. He said, "He is someone I knew I should see. His works and his tone are extremely funny and satirical." The native Hoosier had much

to say about family values. He particularly concentrated on his theory of the "extended family support system." Vonnegut said he believes most divorces stem from a nuclear famil y . With a small number of people in these types of families, Vonnegut believes there may not be enough available members to offer advice. He said members usually have to seek the advice of outsiders. This may pull apart an y closeness the family shares, and so, it is the large extended famil y that is a constant reinforcement for its members and keeps itself together. Skomp appreciated Vonneg,ut's perspective. "I really liked his proposal about children being raised by the communit y . With this type of 'extended' family and a more unified society , it seems that we could eliminate some of today's societal problems." The audience whooped and cheered throughout most of the speech. "\Voo!'s" and "Yeah's!" followed almost every point Vonnegut made. Also, Vonnegut said "everyone in America should have a puberty ceremon y ." Vonnegut said that no one will accept his or her own responsibilities anymore. If boys and girls around the ages of 12, 13 and 14 were given a special puberty ceremon y , the y would have the official rights to adulthood. Vonnegut said they would be told to use their adulthood to "join us in making this society work." He also said, "The only way to receive full credit as an adult these days is to commit a felony." A veteran of World War II, Vonnegut had firsthand knowledge of the perils of war. He felt war is popularized in this generation and made to look like fun. He said,"War is terrible ... killin g is fun onl y from an airplane." From up in the sky, the death and destruction on the ground cannot be seen. Overall, Vonnegut regarded himself as a skeptic. He said he always questions, "What's the good news? What's the bad news?" To demonstrate this idea, Vonnegut used a chalkboard on the stage and a graph of his own

invention, to plot certain high and low points that represented the good news or bad news in various examples of literature. He concentrated on Shakespeare's "Macbeth." He said it produced a flatline because he could not decide which parts of the play constituted the good news or the bad news for the characters. He continued to explain that this is why "Macbeth" is the best literary work: it shows a strange likeness to reality. Real life is not knowing what is the good or bad news. At the end of his speech, he further reached the audience by

assuring he always "tries to keep in touch with young people's concerns." Before the lecture, Vonnegut had met with about 50 honors students and Wells Scholars for an informal discussion of their concerns. This discussion at the Lilly Library preceded his lecture at 7 p.m. in the Auditorium. Junior Chris Ferrell said, "Vonnegut has a wonderful sense of humor. He was very enlightening and kept the audience captivated. It was well worth the time." E I

During the protest, BSU exectives and Assistant Dean of Students Jim Gibson spoke with Corporate Marketing Director John Carlson inside the store. The meeting took place in order to discuss alleged discrimination on the part of the bookstore.

ngry students lined the sidewalk and embittered chants rang through the air the afternoon of Feb. 17. About 40 students had gathered outside of T.I.S. Bookstore, 1302 E. Third St., to protest the controversial Jan. 18 dismissal of sophomore Dionne Grady, an African-American employee, from the bookstore. Senior Guykesha Denson, Black Student Union secretary, led chants like "Injustice to one is injustice to all!" and "People united can't be defeated!" and ordered protesters to raise their fists in the air. Their demand: racial equality in Bloomington. Protesters claimed Grady's firing was racially motivated and was insufficiently tOunded. They claimed it only further pointed to daily racial tensions they encountered while at IU when they frequented local businesses. "I shouldn't have to be harassed, 'May I help you? May I help you?' every time I go into a store," said senior Jawan Strader, president of the IU Association of Black Journalists. T.I.S. management refused to comment directly, but claimed the charge was untrue. They said they based the firing on an incident during which two assistant store managers said they saw Grady help an African American steal items. In a meeting with BSU President Tameka Wheeler the morning before the protest, Wheeler said Greg Lloyd, T.I.S. store manager, said he did in fact decide to fire Grady based on the word of his store managers. BSU members were not satisfied with T.I.S.'s response and boycotted the store. "Personall y , I plan on boycotting T.I.S. until the problem is corrected. I can probably speak for everyone here," Wheeler, a senior, said. Still unsatisfied with the bookstore's response to their

training workshops. As the meeting took place, the rallygoers continued to chant. The chants stopped and protesters gathered around the three BSU executives after they and Gibson walked out of T.I.S. Wright related the terms of the discussion. "They have taken some steps as far as looking into diversity workshops for all employees," Wright said to the protesting crowd. "So as far as action being taken, they're trying and they have said they are willing to work with us. They want to see change, and they don't want this type of thing to continue in their institution. Basically, what I am trying to tell you is that they have made little progress, but it is some." Voices started mumbling and feet started shuffling as some members from the crowd appeared to be confused on whether to resume marching after Wright's speech. But Denson calmed the crowd down again and reminded them why they were there. "Our purpose: This is a student thing. This is a 'we' thing. This is not just a Dionne [Grady] thing. It just so happened that what happened to Sari) Riche Dionne started this thing. But this in local businesses.

lying acrobats, enticing food, pulsating music and soliciting vendors usually form the backdrop of a carnival. But artists, jugglers, volunteers and hundreds of students who were present April 1 at Dunn Meadow turned this carnival into the 10th annual Culture Shock. The event was sponsored by WIUS, the student radio station, and was designed with this carnival atmosphere in mind. Coordinators developed the event in hopes of bringing variety to the campus community. "We tried to promote Culture Shock as a carnival. We offered bands, food, art, clothes and acrobats to promote diversity. If we took all of these other events out and just left the bands, it would be really boring," said Station Manager Steve Whitcomb, who helped coordinate the event. From noon until 7 p.m., Dunn Meadow was filled with the music of 16 local bands, which played in 45 minute sets on the two stages set up at the east and west ends of the meadow. Most of the bands, which played everything from alternative to folk songs, were from the immediate Bloomington area. About half the bands, including El Nino, Antenna and Squashblossom String-pullers, were among the returning bands. But man y , including Verve Pipe, Smears and Velo-Deluxe, had been touring across the country and through Europe.

"We really tried to bring in a broad range of bands — some new and local and some professionals in order to provide a variety of music," Whitcomb said. He also said Vida, a new band from the area, seemed to be extremely popular among the crowd. Sophomore Eric Litwiller said, "I went to it [Culture Shock] last year, and it was a lot of fun. The bands were fun to listen to and attracted me back this year. They were great this year, too." John Koch, production director for WIUS and coordinator of advertising, agreed that the quality of the bands was extremely good, and they attracted a large crowd. "They were top-notch and the addition of the extra acoustic stage was enthusiastically greeted by the crowd." But while the bands were the core of the event, they only provided the backdrop for the many other activities occurring in the meadow. Vendors from the community, including those from the popular stores Athena and The Gallery, displayed their crafts. Vendors sold articles of clothing, jewelry and other trinkets. George Goehl„'l local Bloomington artist who sold his crafts in Nashville, located in Brown County, hand soldered copper bubble blowers — a unique trinket that attracted a diverse range of people — at the event. "I have never sold anything that appealed to so many age groups – 70s, college-age kids, continued

Vendors also set up a body piercing tent and a tattoo information table for those who wanted to decorate their bodies. Many student organizations also manned booths to recruit participants and distribute literature about their groups. Senior Michele Rodger, president of the RI Dance Marathon Council, said, "Culture Shock is an excellent opportunity to reach the student body and community, who might not know what we are about and what we're working toward." The Dance Marathon Council and Union Board were the two largest groups present to recruit. Sophomore Andrea Kemper said, "I saw a lot of student groups that I don't usually get to see or get to know anything about. I got a kick out of NORML, the group working for the legalization of marijuana." Many other groups and talents that weren't so well recognized across campus were also represented at the event. For example, many individual performers such as jugglers and

jesters demonstrated their skills and entertained bystanders. Freshman Brendan Mayhugh, one of about five jesters present, twirled sticks through the air and wore a costume to recreate the Middle Ages. The Bloomington Circus Company was also in attendance and performed on a trampoline it set up in the south end of the meadow. Representative acrobatics taught some elementary jumps and offered free jumps on the trampoline to observers. Koch, who was also responsible for on-air promotions of the radio station, said Culture Shock was a unique event. He interviewed students during the festival. He said comments were, overall, extremely positive. "This year's Culture Shock was an amazing success. From the people who attended that a couple of us interviewed for our community programs, everyone seemed to really enjoy themselves," he said. Whitcomb said, "Our sole purpose was just to provide a really cool event that the community could enjoy for free — an event that would bring everyone together."

WOMEN'S LITTLE 500 Everything seemed to point to a grudge race. After last year's controversial race involving Kappa Alpha Theta, the eventual winner, and Alpha Gamma Delta, everyone expected things to come down to a final race between the two teams.

hopes of winning the race. AGDs were taken out of contention when another rider clipped the wheel of AGD senior Julie Biros. The AGDs were never able to get back on the lead lap, finishing fourth and one lap hack. "[The accident] was my fault; I had a bad position," Biros said. "I knew there would be a wreck at the beginning of the race, and I should have been up toward the front of the pack. I never should have been there." Thetas on the other hand, were able to stay out front, winning the race for the second straight year. Although Theta coach Tom

Schwoegler was happy that his team was able to win, he admired the determination and effort put forth by rival AGD. "I hate to see any team that is competitive, that works very hard have a had day," Schwoegler said. "I mean, it's really unfortunate.

"She [junior Gina Murray] is a great sprinter, and because sprinting is her forte we decided that putting her in for a shorter set would be using her strengths in a better way." Kappas used Murray's strengths to finish second, seven seconds behind Thetas. The Kappas were confident in their last exchange, but the Thetas were even more confident in their final exchange.

"I knew we had it," Beck said after her final exchange with Hoetzcr. "It was like this feeling that our job was done." Their job was done and for the second straight year the Theta team took the checkered flag and the victory lap around Bill Armstrong Stadium as the champions of the Women's Little 500 race.

rest is just icing!" said sophomore Mike Vetter, the first leg of Read Beck 2. The luck Vetter was referring to was the tendency of other teams to slide out of bounds around the turns of the course. Because the floor of Assembly Hall was being replaced, IUSF, the sponsoring organization, was forced to tape lines onto the concrete floor, which in many instances caused slickness. "They've been using water mops on the turns to reduce the slickness, and there haven't reall y been any major problems," Nora Barrett, vice president of IUSF, said.

In one of the contest's most exciting races, junior veteran Cory Lewis shifted into high gear just before the final turn and quickl y left the other riders behind in the pack.

"It just happened," Lewis said about the amazing finish. "I think a lot of the other sprinters were tired." About the early stages of the race, Lewis said, "I was a little tired and actually ended up getting sick. But it turned out that we just went with the same strategy to get me on at [lap] 192, and [freshman teammate] Jim Lohman was able to give me a great sprint-out, so I didn't have to work to catch up." The victory was Phi Gamma Delta's sixth, and gave the

fraternity the top spot in the overall ranking, a position Phi Kappa Psi had held for 27 years. After the exhilarating finish, a purple mass of Fiji brothers encompassed the field holding their arms in the air, chanting, yelling and singing the song of their fraternity. Shouts of "I've waited so long for this!" "We did it, buddy!" and "Let's go on probation next year!" were heard from the inebriated group. Junior rookie Mark Edwards described how he felt after his first

Little 5 victory. "It's the best feeling I've ever had in my whole life. The best as an y other feeling I've had before. It's incredible." 1992 Fiji alumnus, Grant Carlton, was at IU when they last won in 1987 and has been coming back ever since. "I'm not surprised we won at all.

On lap 83, a collision on turn one with Delta Upsilon and Phi Delts left the defending champions, Sigma Chi, with a broken bike. Sigma Chi could not catch up with the pack after having to wait fbr a new bike and ended up making a disappointing 10th place finish. But the Phi Delts made an impressive comeback and reached the lead group in about 20 laps. As the polesitters, they were favored to win the race, but because of the unpredictability of the race and the tight finish, they ended up finishing sixth.

"There was a lot more pressure — we were favored to win. But you got to think you're going to win anyway in a race like this."

divisions as well. "We decided to have this for more competition. There were actually races happening within the race," IUSF senior Spencer Mayhew said. "Also, teams would feel like they have more of a chance to win something." Acacia finished second in the race and was the top team in the cream fraternity division. Wright Dodds' all-senior team finished fourth overall and won the residence hall division. Cutters, who rode with three rookies, placed 11 th and won the independent title. It was the first time in 12 years that the Cutters

did not finish in the top five. The race was also the first that IUSF did not allow Category 2 riders to participate in the race. Team Cinzano could not pull a team together as a result of the new rule, and Sigma Chi and Delta Chi also lost some of their best riders. Nonetheless, IUSF members believed the ban improved the Little 500. "The race is much better now, just look at the fact that there were seven teams going for the finish. With the elite teams out, there is much more competitiveness, but at a different level," Mayhew said. "Teams were intimidated by the

Cat 2s. In a few years, you'll probably see even more teams trying to qualify for the race." Bill Armstrong, for whom the stadium where the race took place is named, has gone to all 45 Little 500 races and still thinks the event stands above all others. "There is still nothing like it. Where else can you find for an intramural program, the crowd we had, the enthusiasm we had, the wonderful riders and the extraordinary leadership from the students?" Armstrong said. in

Big-name entertainers usually performed during Little 500 weekend, however, Union Board tailed to find anyone to pertorm. Students had to find other ways to entertain themselves and for some, partying in a dorm room seemed to be a safe alternative because of the tightened police security.

historically-crazy weekend. But Bloomington has certainl y been quieter these last few years. In 1991, parties at the Varsity Villas and Dunnhill apartments were out of control. Drunk partygoers rolled a new Cadillac in the parking lot of the Villas, threw burning couches from their decks and bottles at police, and tried to set ever y trash Dumpster on fire. "You see over there b y the pool," Sergeant Robert Neel y said. "1 remember when there Were people, all of them passed out or not knowing where they were, and most half-naked, with couches, chairs, ever y thing you can imagine, on fire in the empty pool. Apartment owners don't dare open their pools, or even fill them up until Little 5 is over." In 1991, more than 580 people were arrested on various charges including illegal consumption and resisting arrest. Sergeant Neely of BPD said, "People used to come to Bloomington for Little 5 weekend with nothing but a mug for beer and a blanket to sleep on. People would just go from party to party and find a place to pass out somewhere along the way." But the parties had turned quieter and BPD's job became much easier. Sometimes the officers even came close to boredom. "Lately we've been bored on these weekends. Most of the officers think it's a waste of time an y more, but we still have to go through it continued

A flyway," Sergeant Neely said. This year, only 119 people were arrested in Bloomington during Little 5 weekend. Indeed every year since 1991, arrests have dropped an average of 100 people per year during the weekend. Big football weekends have begun to rival the Little 500 weekend arrest activit y . Police have literally scared people into abiding by the law. Since the 1991 problems, the police presence in Bloomington has doubled. The State Police helicopter in the air and paddy wagons roaming the streets are now "a show of force, intended to keep people aware of our presence during the weekend," Sergeant Neely said. In fact, for those who have attended the actual race in the last few years, they will have noticed a marked decrease in attendance. Simply, less people come to Bloomington during the weekend than five years ago. Less people meant fewer arrests for BPD.

Those arrested had to show up at the City County building the Sunday morning of the Little 5 weekend. Lines of hungover people form, paving $280 fines in pre-trial diversion to the city for their crimes during the weekend. Also, for those arrested, a five-hour public restitution term must be met that Sunday afternoon, picking up trash around the worstlittered areas of town. Doing this project I found that, even with the tedious hours and headaches, the BPD police who worked during the Little 5 weekend were extremely polite. They were not concerned with petty charges, or try ing to meet some mystery arrest quota. They talked genuinely and openly with those partiers in various apartment complexes, trying only to keep things quiet. Many times, the onl y request of the BPD officers was to remain in the apartment and keep the volume of the stereo at a reasonable level. Police made arrests, and they were prepared for the worst, but, in general, BPD had a very, very quiet weekend. El

n the few weeks preceding graduation, the University wasn't sure if it could continue its 165year tradition of including prayer at its commencement ceremonies. But May 6, the prayer eventually came with little fanfare — in fact, it came with a blunder. While introducing the prayer, IU President Myles Brand said the Rev. Robert W. Sims would deliver the "innovation," He then corrected himself by

calling it an "incovation," but intended to say "invocation."

LAW SCHOOL CEREMONY PROTEST When the law school class filed out of its commencement ceremon y May 6, graduates were greeted with more than congratulations. Instead they faced a group of 100 protesters, who sang- h y mns, shouted insults aimed at U.S. Attorne y General Janet Reno and held signs with slogans like, "Hitler would be proud of you, Janet." The demonstrators were criticizing Reno, the featured speaker at IU's law school commencement, for her role in the 1993 FBI raid on the Branch Dayidian compound in Waco, Texas. The protesters, led b y the Rev. Greg Dixon of the Indianapolis Baptist Temple, consisted of militia and church groups from several Indiana counties. Dixon said his supporters blamed Reno f6r the Waco tragedy and question Ilts decision to invite Reno. Protestor Robert Tiffi-mv said Reno committed "full-out frontal assault" in handling the situation in Waco two years ago. "She's the top legal official in this country ," Tiffan y said, a member of the Johnson County Patriots militia organization. "She holds the position of attorney general, but she totall y broke the Bill of Rights and the U.S. Constitution." Dixon said he hopes Reno leaves I U with this message: "That God loves her, that she's going to have to recognize her sin, that she is a murderess." The protesters stood outside the Auditorium beside Showalter Fountain, a popular spot on campus for graduates to have their photos taken after commencement. Parents \\ ho brought cameras to photograph their children's commencement also shot photos of the protestors. "We all have opinions, but there's a time and a place for them," Margaret Dixon said. Dixon came fi-om Atlanta, Ga., to see her daughter graduate from law school. "I think it took away from the day because this is supposed to he [m y daughter's] finest hour, and this shouldn't be on the agenda." Graduating law student Ra y mond Limon posed for a photo with the protestors, who provided one of the most memorable aspects of the ceremony.

As jazz music pla yed softl y in the background, the dim lights revealed a petite woman huddled over a bod y . With intense concentration and her fingers moistened with massage oil, certified massage therapist Sue Ellen CuHey demonstrated the techniques of massage, her hands gliding over a subject's feet. In the middle of another room, judo black belt Sheryl Swins(m stood reviewing defense techniques. Occasional laughter broke the serious undercurrent in the nmm, as her female students practiced various fighting stances with their partners. The women kicked and punched, knowing they might have to put these tactics into action someday. Swedish Massage and Self Defense/Rape Awareness were two of 50 classes ofkred b y the Creative Learning Center ( CLC) during fall and spring semesters. For the past 18 y ears, the CLC, located in the Indiana Memorial Union, has offered classes to students and Bloomington residents. These non-credit classes ran about five weeks and ranged from the ordinary , such as ballroom dancing, to the unique, such as a juggling class. "The classes we offer are great

because the y 're cheaper than Universit y courses, and the students don't have to worry about grades," said Dave Calvin, master's student and interim director of the CLC. "Students can enjoy the class." Members of the cAmimunity and faculty on campus taught the classes. People interested in teaching a class submitted their resumes and a tentative course outline to the CLC. After interviews with the prospective teachers, the CLC decided which classes were ofkred. "We try to otkr a variety of classes, but about one-third of them don't end up being taught because of lack of enrollment," Calvin said. "There must be three students tOr t he class to begin." The Swedish Massage class, taught in the Campus Community Arts Shop in the Union, had an enrollment or abo ut 12 students. The class has been (Ali:red for seven wars.

"It's great fun to see the effects of relaxation techniques with m y students," Culler said. "IU students need positive outlets for stress, and this class helps them find ways." Gulley devoted the class to hands-on learning. Students,

covered by coral-colored blankets designed to keep in heat, relaxed on tables. As soon as Gulley began to demonstrate a massage, her presence instantly overtook the room. With graceful, gentle strokes she demonstrated various massage techniques. With her eyes sparkling, she was filled with excitement as she taught. The students intently watched their instructor and then tried to imitate her actions. "It's interesting to learn about nonverbal communications, and it amazes me how touch breaks down barriers. In the few weeks the class met, the group developed a high

level of trust," graduate student Lisa Denlinger said. The Rape Awareness/Self Defense class combined these ideas of body and pressure but applied them differently. Swinson, a self defense teacher at the HPER, talked about rape-related issues with her students. During class, Swinson discussed author Steve Thompson's Rape Scenario: choosing a target, testing the target, intimidation, sexual attack and termination. Students applied these techniques to their lives outside the classroom. "I decided to take Rape Awareness/Self Defense because I am interested in

martial arts and I wanted to learn to defend myself," senior Mira Kemppainen said. "I live in a town about the size of Bloomington in Finland. I felt safer at home and would walk by myself at night. Here, my friends and I walk together. "This class was free of charge and in Finland, where I'm from, you have to pay to take a class like this," Kemppainen said. "Finland doesn't offer self defense classes through the schools, but rather through private associations. "For the first time, I've really thought about what I should do if someone attacked me. Before, I've thought that

when I face the situation 'I guess I'll figure out something.' But it's definitely not that simple," Kemppainen said. "I think the most important thing I've learned is just to be aware." Sophomore Monica Olson, a student in the Rape Awareness/Self Defense class, agreed with Kemppaincn. "It is so frustrating to walk down the sidewalk at night and have to be constantly aware of who is walking behind you," Olson said. "In class, Sheryl Swinson kept reminding us that there is nothing wrong with being trustful, but you also have to be smart, alert and aware."

Studying could be described as an individual decision resembling a pizza preference. While most people can tolerate a plain cheese pizza, everyone. has his or her favorite toppings and sauce which make it a true delicacy. Interviewing students, I decided to decorate this "plain cheese pizza" stereotype of a typical college study environment: the quiet room with florescent light. I grabbed my necessary tools (a pen and notebook) and hit the streets to hunt down individuality in the study scene. While strolling through the Arboretum, I encountered freshman Matt Hightshoe, who sat poised with a pencil behind his ear, next to the watertlill, buried in a sea of papers. I asked him why he chose to sit and study near the waterfall. Pondering my question, he decided running water made him feel more at home; lie lives next to Fall Creek in Indianapolis. This atmosphere relaxed him, enabling him to concentrate. "In my dorm, I listen to some relaxing music such as Enigma, Enya or Chant; the music produces the same feeling the running water does," Hightshoe said. From within a study carrell at the Education Library , I fbund 19-year-old Helen Yoon frantically punching her calculator. A pencil secured her long hair in a bun. Yoon appeared to be doing some serious studying. I learned she had a M215 Calculus exam the following day. She said the Education Library was an ideal study environment because it is located across from her residence hall. How many resident assistants actually look forward to working in the duty office? Senior Rachel Voegele, Willkie North RA, said she actually wanted to sit in the duty office to study because the five-hour time slot was perfect for

catching up on her reading assignments. I had a hard time believing that work could be accomplished with phones ringing, complaints from residents who lost their keys and the occasional bored, fellow staff member stopping by to chat. M y doubts led me to conduct an experiment in the duty office. I sat in the office and tried to read my psychology book. I managed to concentrate despite the distractions. Surprisingly , the phone hardly ever rang and the office wasn't as popular as I had expected. The couches were even quite comfortable! Despite the environment, academic experts stressed the amount of time allotted to learning is as crucial as the intensity of study. Don Carlton, University Division academic adviser, said students should multiply the number of credit hours they take by two to get the minimum amount of study hours each week. Athletics are a prime example where students found themselves balancing academics and practice. As a member of the women's basketball team, senior Shirley Bryant juggled 13 credit hours and daily afternoon practice from 12:30 to 3:30 p.m. "Many times I just wanted to sleep after practice, but I knew I must push on and study ifl want to graduate," Bryant said. "1 even read on the bus while traveling to games. That really helped me." Whether it entailed studying from a tree or in the laundry room, students said all the hard work paid off in the end. Voegele gave me sonic words of wisdom: "It took me three years to figure out the way I study best," she said. "Like different majors, there is a perfect [study] fit fiir everyone, but you might have to change your mind a few times to find it." in

College consisted of many decisions, including where to live, what major to choose, what classes to take and whether to study for that upcoming midterm or watch "Melrose Place." Some students became so attached to a television show that they would do almost anything to avoid missing it. "One TV show I never miss is 'Melrose Place.' I keep my Monda y nights open just so I can watch it," freshman Loni Boyd said. "I find 'Melrose Place' interesting because it is our ideal of what we want to be in lifC: glamorous, rich and living in a nice apartment in L.A." Boyd usually watched "Melrose Place" with a group of women from her floor. They all got involved in the show, yelling at characters they didn't like. "We work up such an appetite [that] we order out for pizza after the show," Boyd said. Why did students become so addicted to television shows? In her book "Writing For Daytime Drama," Jean Rouverol said daytime and primetime soaps have appealing story lines and drag out their plots so viewers keep watching them. Also, because the producers know the majority of their audience is college and high school students, the writers sometimes shift the story lines to feature young actors on that soap. Rouverol added that the soap opera audience has trouble telling fiction from reality and viewers become addicted to the show. Although students might not admit their addiction to television, they still unconsciously schedule classes around favorite shows. "Usuall y I don't try to fit my classes around TV shows but I do try to avoid having classes on

The Main Library stands adjacent to 10th Street, a treasure on campus that is sometimes overlooked. But this year, the history behind the 11-story limestone landmark was celebrated. From Sept. 19-23, slide shows, guest speakers and displays commemorated the 25th anniversary of the Main Library. Sept. 20, IU welcomed author Torn Wolfe, whose books include "Bonfire of the Vanities" and "The Right Stuff" His appearance at the IU Auditorium was sponsored by the College of Arts and Sciences, IU Foundation, Office of the Vice President and Bloomington Chancellor Kenneth Gros Louis, School of Journalism, Sigma Chi Scholars Program, Walden University, Wells Scholars Program and the Honors Division. As he walked confidentl y on stage dressed in a white suit, Wolfe seemed unaffected by the packed assembly of nearly 800 patrons.

Wolfe illustrated the changing of the moral structure of the world and the sweeping aside of social standards. He began his speech, titled "The End of the Century and the Spirit of the Age," by saying, "Every historical period has a moral tone, an uneasy feeling at the end of the century. "We need to arrive at a new set of values ... it is an overwhelming task of humanity," Wolfe said. "We find ourselves in a great moment of history, unparalleled, a moment of wealth and power in the history of the nation ... but we are still plagued." Wolfe's diverse theme paralleled the variety of people who attended his speech. The Auditorium was filled with students, faculty and Bloomington residents, all waiting to hear Wolfe's speech. Graduate student Paula Brehm said she came to see Wolfe speak because "I've read 'Bonfire

After the event, sophomore Julie Chambers, a volunteer usher at the Auditorium, said she was glad to hear him speak. "I love literature and I respect Tom Wolfe's writing. I hoped to get a greater understanding of his writing, of how and why he writes." Associate Dean of University Libraries Pat Steele said Wolfe was chosen to speak in honor of the library celebration

for several reasons. "We wanted to pick a speaker with some national note," Steele said. "Tom Wolfe has been a writer and social critic for some time. [His literature I fit within the [25year] time frame as the library." The Library sponsored other seminars in addition to the Wolfe lecture. The keynote symposium emphasized "Tradition, Innovation and Vision," the celebration's theme. Professor James Madison, chair of the History Department, spoke on tradition

College guides and tour guides advocated an IU education to prepare prospective students for their career destinations

Around 1:30 p.m. one Friday in January, while a campus tour was in progress, tour guide Matt Glass told a group of prospective students and their parents about the recreational activities the campus and Bloomington offered. Glass, a senior, said whether it was shopping on Kirkwood Avenue or seeing the latest movie at College Mall, there was plenty to do. Abby Irzyk, a perspective freshman from the Chicago area, went on Glass' tour with her mom and dad. Although

Irzyk also applied to Drake and Purdue, she said she wanted to attend I U because of its business school. "I heard it was reall y good, so I very much want to be a Hoosier," she said. "I also wanted to stay close to home — but not too close." Glass, student director of campus-sponsored tours, said the focus of the tours was to show visitors the main parts of TU. Aside from campus landmarks, Glass said Bloomington was part of the attraction of IU.

Whether they were from a small town and wanted to experience the "big city" or from a big city and wanted to escape to a smaller town, Bloomington had both aspects. The University 's admission book cited a Rand McNally statistic, saying Bloomington was one of the eight most desirable places to live in America. Edward Fiske, former editor of the New York Times, chose Bloomington as one of the nation's top 10 college towns. In its bulletins and pamphlets, the University highlighted the wide range (about 5,000) of different academic courses and the more than 500 organized clubs and activities. Most students used college guides and view books like ILI's to help narrow down their college choices.

Tittany segan Strolling from the Indiana Memorial Union and into Dunn Meadow, a student enjoys the fall sunshine. Fiske's 1995 College Guide highlights the IMU building as the "nation's largest student union."

College guides, such as Fiske's, used University brochures as a resource to compile its annual recommendations. In completing its profile, Fiske also surveyed students who attended the University. The guide gave IU a four-star rating (out of a possible five) in the "Academics" category and a fourtelephone rating in the "Social" category. Campus staples — including the nation's largest student union, the "Old Oaken Bucket" football game and Little 500 — were also cited. Aside from reading college guides, students can be swayed to attend a school based on magazine articles or word-of-mouth recommendations. In a 1991 profile of IU in Seventeen, a feature article mentioned hangouts such as the Von Lee Theater, Cafe Pizzeria, Mother Bear's Pizza and Uptown Cafe. Aside from Bloomington's hot spots, University "staples" featured in the article included the Little 500, Hoosier basketball, the greek system and School of Music. Freshman Amanda Chambliss, from Williamsport, Ind., enrolled at IU because of the journalism school. "It is an outstanding program, and I wanted the best." Freshman Abbie Jerves, from Fort Wayne, Ind., was also drawn to the strong academic programs. "I've heard that the education school is top-ranked and is very prestigious. My sister graduated from IU, and my aunt was a professor here," she said. "I also wanted to go to a large school and meet different kinds of people." Jerves said because there is so much to do at IU, it wouldn't be hard to convince prospective students to attend school here. "There's a lot of opportunities here, both social and educational, that are not available at other colleges," Jerves said. Glass said that most prospective students were amazed by

the beauty of the campus. "My goal as a tour guide is to show the student why IU would be their best choice for a college," he said. "I make them want to attend and to take advantage of the great things that are here. " Glass said most parents and students on his tour had researched the school and had read the IU view book or college guide profiles. Glass regularly received questions about campus safety, class sizes, greek system and the class registration process. Kevin Balas, a senior and business major, made his decision to attend IU four years ago. Although Balas read the college guides and watched recruiting videos, he accepted an admission letter for IU after he talked with an alumnus. The Admissions Office mentioned the School of Business in its presentations. In its nationwide poll, Business Week ranked the graduate school seventh. But aside from the strong academic courseload, Balas said the scenic campus was also a strong selling point for the school. Glass, a business major originally from East Williston, N.Y., agreed with Balas. Glass said he chose to attend IU because when he went on a tour as a high school student, it looked like a traditional college campus. "I fell in love with the campus and it looked like the [place] you dream of attending as a kid. "The Hoosier spirit also was a reason I attended IU," Glass said. "In high school, my sports teams never won. I wanted to be part of the great Hoosier tradition." ri

Competition created a job search maze that sent students racing for the finish

In hopes of finding a job, accounting major Elliot Beimel chose an Italian-made, navy pin striped suit, traditional white shirt, burgundy tie and black cap-toed shoes to interview through the Business Placement Office. Beimel, a senior, described his interview with Arthur Anderson, a "Big Six" accounting firm, as a nervous experience. "The waiting room was packed. Everybody was nervous. There were a lot of people interviewing with the same firm for different positions," he said. "I could tell by the way the students were dressed what their majors were [About] 99 percent of the accounting majors wore navy-colored suits, the finance students all wore gra y or navy suits with a flashy tie, while the marketing people wore flashier suits." When graduating students have their futures on the line, Beimel said interviewing can be a difficult experience. Right before the interview, Beimel said he was thinking of what he could say to the interviewer to make a good first impression. Beimel said although being relaxed in the interview is crucial, it was hard to keep calm. "It's so competitive, and you are so nervous and uptight," Beimel said. "It's so hard to relax, but you know there's other people waiting for the job if you screw up." Despite this pressure, Beimel said he liked the competitive atmosphere of the

business world. From his interviews with 12 companies, Beimel received three job offers. He accepted a job in Baltimore with Arthur Anderson. Like Beimel, many seniors' final year of college was filled with similar pressures of finding a job. This job search seemed like months of agon y , but campus facilities helped future graduates hunt for jobs. Because 1,200 of the 1,500 students who used the BP() last year were in business-related fields, the office offered X420, a class that taught seniors (both in and outside the School of Business) about interviewing. The BP() had a complex

bidding system for interview spots. It was an elaborate process where students downloaded their resumes to the BPO's files, and the BP() would electronically send these resumes to different companies. More than 500 companies came to campus to recruit and gave presentations, making the program the largest of its kind in the nation. 1)r. C.

than 1,100 students visited the Arts and Sciences Placement Office last year, which offered its services to students earning degrees within the school. Director of the Career Development Center and the Arts and Sciences Placement Office, Alan McNabb, said that though the office made some on-campus interviewing available, the CDC services mainl y assisted students in their independent job searches. "We know that arts and science majors are so varied and unique that we need to have a variety of ways to help them besides just on-campus recruiting," McNabb said. Senior Kevin Conley, a criminal justice major, said the Arts and Sciences Placement office helped him with his interviewing opportunities.

Conley went through about 20 interviews. BefOre each interview he would prepare himself "I would remember that I was there to sell myself," Conley said. Besides the BPO and the Career Development Center, there were also various other placement offices specific to different majors.

Conley advised that interviewers seem to prize certain qualities in a candidate. Conlev suggested that students should start early in the job search and recommended using the last part of the interview to be aggressive. "Tell them what you can do for them," he said. El

When Ruth Norman Halls, B.A. '19, enrolled at IU, she wanted to learn all that she could about the world around her and believed that others should have the same opportunity. Halls died five years ago and left her entire estate to the College of Arts and Sciences. She requested that $1 I million be used to ensure the quality of education. The University used the money to establish a faculty chair, add scholarships to the Wells Scholarship Program, extend COAS graduate fellowships and create four professorships the school named in her memory.

COAS considered the bequest a sign of the inspiration Halls received from the University during her years here. It also enabled future generations to receive a similar experience — into the 21st century. The recipients of the Ruth N. Halls professorships included: Robert Barnes, fine arts; Helen Nader, history; J. Samuel Preus, religious studies; and Suzanne Stetkevych, nearEastern studies. To quality tbr the Ruth N. Halls professorship positions, applicants had to be nominated within their departments and then interviewed by a

nominating committee. The award was based on professors' accomplishments within their fields and their scholarship and teaching abilities. The chairman of these fellows was history and philosophy of science professor Michael Friedman. Friedman, new to the University , was the program's first chairman. He previously taught at the University of Illinois at Chicago, Harvard University and the University of Pennsylvania. Friedman said the position attracted him to IU. The Halls' professors held their grants for a five-year term.

Barnes, who has taught in the School of Fine Arts since 1965, has had work featured in the Art Institute of Chicago, the Indianapolis Museum of Art, the National Gallery of Art and the Museum of Modern Art. Barnes said the grant provided him better access to art materials. His projects were largely based on elements such as poetry, history, philosophy, myth and legend. Barnes believed his paintings parallel life. He was interested in what people believe and think, and he attempted to give them insight for existence through his art. Like Barnes, J. Samuel Preus had devoted much of his life to explaining people's thoughts. Preus, a professor of religious studies, had been at IU for 21 years. During that time, he developed 18 original courses and taught from the introductory to advanced levels of study. Preus, who has a Doctorate in Theology from Harvard Divinity School, devoted his work to the academic discipline of religious studies. His work included a study on the role of the Bible in the 17th century intellectual revolution. Stetkevych, who has taught in the Department of Near-Eastern Languages and Cultures since 1986, taught courses in both Arabic literature and Arabic language from the elementary to advanced levels. Stetkevych's work centered around classic arabic poetry and the relationship between it, its legend and how they function within society. The area was

something she believed was the world's best-kept secret. She used her Halls grant to fund her research expenses and said she hoped to "bring Arab poetry into mainstream society." Nader taught in the history department since 1976 and was a nationally recognized specialist in the history of the Renaissance, early modern Europe and Spanish history. She was considered one of the department's most popular teachers. Nader resided in Arizona and was unavailable for comment. While the Halls professors each had different interests, they devoted time to both teaching and researching. All said both aspects went hand-in-hand to better understand course subject matter. Preus said that he loved teaching students because he could help them make discoveries. Stetkevych agreed with Preus and added that when professors make an effort to teach, students must make a similar effort to learn. She said some of her greatest inspiration had come from teaching students. Barnes said if professors do a good job at research, they can do a good job at teaching. He said he enjoys showing beginners how to paint because he can really teach them. "By the time the y are out of my course, they know more than the graduates do," he said. Barnes said each time he teaches a class, he stops and thinks, "Is there someone like Ruth Halls, who really wants to learn in my class? That is the person I am trying to reach." it]

As the Drop and Add ritual turns hi-tech, alumni and students see the end of the line

Regan Rush

Sifting through the contents of his mailbox, freshman George Patrick round a thin envelope from the Registrar's office. Intrigued, he tore the envelope open and read the first line of the letter, which was printed in bold ink. He read: "You have just participated in the LAST FIELDHOUSE DROP AND ADD." Beginning in the tall of 1995, the "carnival" that occurs the first week of every semester will he transformed. Drop and Add will become automated through a telephone-assisted process called Automated Course Exchange (ACE). Administrators and students said they hope ACE will change the hassle of Drop and Add. For more than 50 years, the Drop and Add system has been criticized. The 1947 First Semester Schedule of Classes summarized the Drop and Add philosophy. Its instructions warned: "Any change in the programs will be ver y difficult and time consuming." In 1948, the Faculty Council recognized the Drop and Add confusion and tried to solve sonic of its problems — students were given three weeks to add classes late in the semester. Still, the system's kinks continued through the years. Criminal Justice professor Bill Head, a 1978 graduate of IU, said the first few weeks of classes were frustrating this year.

Even though many students joined a class a week late because of delayed registration, by the time students' schedules were altered and confirmed by the Registrar, the classes had alread y covered one week's worth of material. "ho combat this problem, Head suggested having copies of professors' syllabi available at the Fieldhouse when students add classes, so they can begin their assignments. Head offered these recommendations, understanding the agony students sometimes undergo at Drop and Add. During his undergraduate years at IU, Head remembered seeing students setting up camp by the tables, freshmen crying on the floor, seeking the support of friends and eventuall y taking a break on the bleachers to watch the "spectator sport," which spotlighted students scrambling and shopping for classes. Donna Goddard worked

with the form division of the Registrar's office and also attended Ill as an undergraduate. Goddard, who graduated in 1966, associated long lines and massive numbers of people with Drop and Add. She recalled not being able to sit down while waiting to add a class because there was sawdust on the floor from the Fieldhouse's renovation. Aside from the floor, there were problems with the ceiling that year, too. Goddard remembered birds in the ceiling who relieved themselves on victims below. Goddard said her main complaint with Drop and Add as a non-student was the frustration of manually typing the day's transactions. Students had similar frustrations with the process. Freshman Lucas McGregor said he waited three hours to add a class. Several months after he supposedly registered for Q100 at Drop and Add, he became

aware of a mistake. McGregor said that according to the Registrar's office, his name was never on the class roster. McGregor said, "I can't even remember much about Drop and Add. I experienced Post-traumatic Stress Syndrome as a result of that day." With the hope of preventing more headaches, the future of Drop and Add was discussed in 1983. Faculty and staff committees decided a computerized form of schedule adjustment was necessary and ACE was born. The new ACE system will allow students to change their schedules over the telephone and at a computer during the first week of classes. ACE also will include waitlist and raincheck features. The waitlist will allow students to place "dibs" on closed classes. If a space becomes available, the computer will automatically register the student on a first-come, firstserved basis. Thanks to the raincheck option, students who were unable to get a class the previous semester will have enrollment priority for that class in the current semester. As a trial run, the waitlist feature was added into the registration process in the winter of 1994, and it proved to be a success among students. "Because of ACE, more than 11,000 waitlist requests were submitted and almost 8,000 of these requests were satisfied by the end of the first week of classes," said Michael Kleinman, manager of Registration and Scheduling. With the full integration of ACE in the HI of 1995, alumni, faculty and students must wait to see how well it relieves the confusion of Drop and Add. En

jeff nowak Although Jeff Nowak, the IU Student Association president, is a political science and criminal justice major who stands 5 feet 8 inches tall with blond hair and blue eyes, most people on campus saw him as one individual who tried to represent the entire student body. But Nowak, a senior, said he saw himself as a responsible, contemplative and consistent leader. Nowak began each morning as IUSA president around 9:30 a.m. when he balanced the roles of student and president, attending his U.S. Social History class. Following lecture, he usually had a series of IUSA meetings or interviews with reporters, then he was at the IUSA office all afternoon until he "made room for dinner somehow." In the evenings, Nowak went to meetings, such as those of the Bloomington Faculty Council, the Student Affairs Committee and the Board of Trustees. At night, Nowak did research for proposals, including student parking sticker rates and the student recreational sports fee. Finall y , around 10 p.m. he put down his presidential gavel. The rest of the night was his to study or socialize. Having to manage classes, maintain a 3.4 GPA and still have a social life outside the presidency — which he likened to a 40 or 50 hour-a-week job — was not easy. Despite the long hours, Nowak did not let himself be consumed by the presidency. He managed to make time for his roommates, seniors Chris Marfisi and Derek Faulkner. "A great evening for me would be relaxing and hanging out with my friends at home," Nowak said. He also enjoyed watching SportsCenter with his roommates at home and going to happ y hour at Kilroy's. Marfisi said, "There's about 10 of us that go [to Kilroy's] every week to chat and have a good time. People don't approach [Nowak] as president of IUSA, we're all just friends." The three roommates have been friends since their freshman year and have shared many great times together. Faulkner also worked for IUSA with Nowak. Faulkner's position was the chief justice of the Supreme Court.

Because of the nature of their positions, there was the possibility of the two friends to go head-to-head on an issue. But, the two said they tried not to let their work interfere with their friendship. Faulkner said Nowak was a great asset to IUSA. "I have found very few people as dedicated as Jeff is to his presidency." Nowak became involved in student government in high school. In college he first held an office his freshman year as judicial adviser in the IUSA Student Rights Department. From there he had the positions of off-campus senator and then received a seat on the IUSA Board of Directors. Nowak said he had high campus involvement goals the first day he set foot in Bloomington. "Just like every other gullible freshman, I had the gleam in my eye," Nowak said. "I remember meeting the IUSA president. From day one I had aspirations to be student body president. How I was going to do that was another question." Nowak said he accomplished his student government goals in college. His goals for the future included plans to enter law school. Following law school, he said he wants to be an attorney back home on the south side of Chicago. He is very close to his mom and dad, his brother, Kevin, and his sister, Laura. Nowak also jokingly described his dog, Molly, as the "light of m y life." "My mom and m y dad have enjoyed my triumphs in IUSA perhaps more than I have. I don't think I would have been here without them," he said. With the support of his family, Nowak graduated in May and left IUSA behind him. However, there was at least one dream in his life he had not accomplished ... yet. "I would give up everything: my IUSA presidenc y, my life as an attorney, if I could be a major league umpire," Nowak said, whose favorite team is the Chicago White Sox. of his knows Marfisi roommate's wish all too well: "If [Nowak could] be a major I league umpire fOr just one day, it would be a dream come true."

Jaffe, a 36-year-old graduate student, was one of man y IL' returning women students who has resumed the role as pupil after years of kids and other careers. As a student, she studied Vocal Jazz through the Individualized Major

Program. As a parent, she juggled four kids' busy schedules with the help of her husband, Chris, who was writing his dissertation in Computer Science. With no full-time household income, Jaffe's decision to go back to school created a famil y budget nightmare. "We go on a lot of thith," Chris said. "We gave up the day care, but wait — how do we exist?" he laughed as he remembered their hectic schedule. "We just made it happen. If you go forward, people will support you." The Jaffes and others like

them could find support. Last year 1,365 continuing students took classes on the Bloomington campus while either working part-time or full-time. The Continuing- Studies Department began its Returning Women Students (RWS) program in 1971 to help women make a college education possible. Continuing Studies Coordinator Sall y Jones said RWS offers women scholarships toward tuition.

discussions about the women's daily stress and triumphs. At noon every Friday, a few RWS members gathered in a small lounge in Owen Hall, complete with plump couches and a coffee maker, to talk about their lives and problems as older students. Jones said from three to eight women usually attended the Friday meetings. She said the busy lives of women with children made it nearly impossible for its 130 members to meet. Graduate student Marianna Savoca said she did not think students knew enough about the advantages of RWS.

"It's a chance for women to get together," she said. Sara Parke Morrison, the University's first female student, started the trend of continuing women's education at IU. When Morrison decided to attend the University in 1867, a $5 incentive from her father opened women's opportunities at the all-male college. Before attending IU, Morrison was a student at Mount Holyoke and Vassar Colleges. Returning women continued to earn degrees at the University 128 years later. continued

UITION INCREASE. That ought to get your attention. This phrase spurred one of the largest and most organized movements in IU history. During the past decade, the Indiana State Legislature increasingly T shafted higher education in the state budget, causing students to foot more of the bill for their education. During the past 10 years, the percent of the budget that students paid increased 14 percent because the state continually cut University funding. Because the state budget for both 1996 and 1997 was voted on in April, some students decided to make a stand with the state government. In response to decreased funding, students from all over Indiana came together to fight for additional funding from the state. Led by the IU Student Association, students tried to break into the political game, hoping that the old saving of "he who cries the loudest will get the most satisfaction" would hold true during the budget vote. IUSA officially began its fight during July 1994 when the Indiana State Student Association was reborn, meeting for the first time since 1988. ISSA consisted of all the public schools in Indiana, and its main objective was to fight for more funds from the state. ISSA's mission statement said that "In establishing this Association, we set aside our individual University affiliations in order to ensure a secure future for higher education in the state of Indiana." IU Student Association president Jeff Nowak worked on the campaign, alongside IUSA Legislative Relations chair Jessica O'Neil. Nowak said the best way to accomplish ISSA's goal was through a constant presence at the statehouse and a steady flow of letters from students to the General Assembly. A massive letter writing campaign was carefully organized by Nowak, a senior, and O'Neil, a sophomore. Each school was assigned seven representatives a week to direct letters. This prevented duplication and ensured that no representative was left omitted. A letter written by O'Neil and distributed to student government leaders at all IU campuses outlined the objectives of the letter-writing campaign, called 10 MINUTES FOR I U. The campaign was a "way of putting IU students into contact with the Indiana General Assembly and allowing them, at the same time, to give something back to the

CREASE University." Armed with sample letters and infbrmation packets on the program, IUSA senators went to all corners of campus convincing students to take 10 minutes out of their day to write a letter to a specific representative pleading for more funds. Nowak said students responded well to IUSA's demands by sending more than 400 letters to the state continued legislature.

tudents also responded favorabl y when asked to lobby at the Statehouse. When the budget bill was introduced in November, students lobbied to explain what the y wanted in the budget, and the y held a press conference for the local media. A January trip to the General Assembly in Indianapolis had the most impressive showing, with more than 50 students present. Nowak spoke before the House Ways and Means committee stressing the importance of higher education and the need for additional state funding. In addition to the funding the University was alread y receiving fbr the 1995-1996 school year, Nowak said IU asked for a 4 percent operational increase and a 1 percent capital request increase, to fund such projects as the building of the new Black Cultural Center. An additional 1 percent was requested fbr repair and replacement of the facilities, and a 1 percent funding increase was also requested to lower the student-teacher ratio, which was the worst in the Big Ten. Although knowing isn't always getting, the House of Representatives approved all the budget demands except the 1 percent delegated for the student-teacher ratio. The House also tacked on an item that limited all public colleges from increasing tuition more than 4.5 percent a year. The tuition cap was highl y opposed by IUSA and President Myles Brand. Nowak said the government was intervening too much in higher education and he asked, "Wh y do we have a Board of Trustees, if they don't have the freedom to do what they want within reason?" Although the cap was opposed b y IUSA, some students, parents and

alumni had differing opinions on whether tuition increases should be controlled. Freshman Chloe Chaput said, "I can't pay fbr an increase in tuition, I can't even pay my credit card bills!" Because of the rising cost of attending college, Chaput won't be able to return to the University next fall. Chaput also said, "I think I will go back home and work a while to save up enough money to return to IL]." Nowak said students such as Chaput who "drop off the map" because of rising tuition costs were a concern for IUSA, but he didn't believe that the 1 percent increase that IUSA was asking for from the Universit y will make a significant difference to most students. Paul Scope], the father of two out-of-state students, said tuition should be held as low as possible.

Scope! also said had he known tuition would soar while his son and daughter were in school, he would have seriously reconsidered sending them to IU. "Schools, unlike businesses, have no idea how to control costs. Unfortunately, it has been that way for a long time." Although students and parents have valid points concerning tuition costs, alumni can offer a different perspective because they have been through the system and worked outside of the University, enabling them to see just how much difference all these percentages actually make. As a collegiate, Michele Long, class of '77 and a member of the IU Alumni Association, remembers living on a $200 budget during school and being aware of tuition increases because they meant she had to save more. Long said that "hiring more teachers to combat the high student-teacher ratio is more important than the improvement of buildings. They should choose wisel y in making new updates." In addition to student, parent and alumni interest, Brand took an active role in the fight for more funding. Nowak said, "This is the first year that the students and the President have worked together for more funding." Brand spoke to the Indiana House Ways and Means committee in February, and said that "It's clear a new economic order is emerging in which knowledge, not labor, raw materials or capital, is the key resource." Brand also traveled to eight cities in Indiana with Purdue President Steven C. Beering making speeches and talking to the press trying to whip up support for higher education. Although IUSA had a large amount of support, there were some roadblocks in the effort. One such roadblock was Governor Evan Bayh. In his January State of the State speech, Bayh spoke about improving education, referring to grades K-12 but leaving out college altogether. Nowak said perhaps the reason why Bayh didn't support the effort was because "college kids don't vote, so we can't garner much power with the elected officials." But since Bayh had nothing to do with the ultimate decision about the budget, IUSA did not waste time trying to convince him otherwise. Long had another theory as to why Bayh was not supportive of the push for funding. She knew Bayh (who graduated from IU) while she was in college and was not surprised of his lack of support. Long said "Evan was silver-spooned, and he might not understand the struggle to pay tuition the same way most of us would." Long now works as a math teacher in a private high school in Atlanta, Ga. but still remains a Hoosier at heart and keeps up on events happening in the University. The organization of this massive letter writing and lobbying was not an easy task for IUSA or the newly formed ISSA, Nowak said. But despite the various setbacks, Nowak said he was satisfied with the outcome of the budget and feels that the students should also be happy. After all the work that I USA, students, Brand and a host of other people put into the effort this year, Nowak said he hopes this issue won't be forgotten in years to come. Nowak said, "It certainly won't make a significant impact right away, but we started a trend of state support. With the way the state funding was heading over the past few years, IU would have to become a private institution."

Herman B Wells opened his mind and heart to generations

His height is 5 feet 8 inches, yet his presence is colossal. The influence of his generosity and dedication fOr more than 50 years is everywhere: at IU, Indiana and even throughout the world. And at 92, Herman R Wells is a living legend. Wells' influence — felt by the people he touches and the Universit y he nurtures — is difficult to verbalize. "You can't summarize Dr. Wells in one sentence — it's just impossible to do," said Dorothy Collins, who worked for Wells as a research assistant for 25 years. Some call it hard work. Others tag it as talent. But Wells calls it "being lucky." "By a set of fortuitous circumstances, I came to be the president of Indiana University," Wells wrote modestly in his 1980 autobiography, "Being Lucky." Wells was born June 7, 1902, in Jamestown, Ind., a small town in Boone County. An only child, he was raised to value the importance of education. Wells graduated from IU in 1924 and became dean of the University's School of Business in 1935. Two years later he received a midnight phone call offering him the position of acting president. He did such a good job in that capacity that he became IU's 12th president — a position that lasted 25 years. A single person who devotes his life to enhancing an institution is difficult to imagine, but Wells has made this vision a reality. "He has felt, always, that his role in life is to serve people," said Peter Fraenkel, friend and fOrmer assistant to Wells. "And the University, of course, became his instrument for serving people. Herman Wells is an example of humanity at its best: The combination of head and heart." When Fraenkel was a student at a prep school in La Paz, Bolivia, in 1942, he met Wells. The IU

president was in Bolivia to build cultural relations between North and South America. Fraenkel volunteered to be an interpreter for the American Embassy there, and he was assigned to Wells. A 1946 IU graduate, Fraenkel had been at Harvard University for only a year when Wells coaxed him to go to Berlin as his aide. He came back to Bloomington with Wells in 1949 and served as his assistant until a few months before Wells' retirement in 1962. Following this position, Fraenkel joined the Ford Foundation, a philanthropic organization. Fraenkel attributes part of Wells' success to his management

style. "He inspired tremendous confidence and trust. To inspire confidence and trust, you have to trust people and you have to pick people who are worthy of trust," Fraenkel said. "Herman Wells always had an administrative team. Among the members existed trust and camaraderie. He always insisted that a team consist of people with different backgrounds so they mutually complement each other," Fraenkel added. Though his presidency ended 34 years ago, Wells continued to occupy many roles, including a position as University chancellor. "He has a very strong work

ethic," Collins said. "And even at 92, he's still wrapped up completely in the University." Linda Bucklin, Wells' current assistant, echoed Collins' views on Wells' leadership. "It's a combination of so many factors. He's a people person, he's thoughtful, he's a visionary of sorts," Bucklin said. "It's been a joy to work for him." But despite all the praise, Wells remains humble. "It's not difficult to be a successful university president," Wells stated in a 1993 video, titled "The Vision of Herman B Wells." "All you have to do is get the continued

ight faculty members and t ‘. then leave them alone. Let them find their careers and give them as much support as you can." Wells took many risks to foster education at IU. The most controversial was condoning Alfred C. Kinsey's research on human sexuality in the late '30s. He said in the video he believes strongly in academic freedom. "He's been a very courageous man — the fact that he allowed Kinsey to research here and he internationalized IU," said. "He put that element into the University." The former University president also believes in bringing IU to the world and the world to IU. IU-Bloomington Chancellor Kenneth Gros Louis said Wells' outlook made this materialize. It was his vision that made it possible for IU-Bloomington to go from a small institution to one that is now known nationally and internationall y," Gros Louis said. "He took a lot of bold steps and personal courage." Fraenkel said Wells fulfilled his goal of introducing the world to IU. "Herman Wells is responsible for much of what you see today. One of the things he felt was important was that the University have an international dimension," Fraenkel said. "Everything he did was always focused on building the University. He talked very little, he listened all the time." Wells is also renowned fbr his impeccable memory. "The first thing he'd do when he got to the office was empty his pockets and he had little pieces of paper everywhere," Fraenkel said. "He wrote things down and he had a tremendous memory for persons." Sophomore Justin Stephenson, a Wells Scholar, said he is astounded by Wells' ability to remember names. "I'm amazed at his memory because I met him a couple of times widel y separated in time and he remembered me," Stephenson said. "That really shocked me because I couldn't have done that." The Wells Scholars program, in its fifth year, awards full tuition and living expenses for four years based on academic merit.

The anecdotes depicting the life of Wells are endless. A few people recalled some stories, highlighting various aspects of his personality and demeanor. School of Music Dean, Charles Webb, said he spotted Wells in the lobby of the Musical Arts Center just before a performance of a Verdi requiem. Wells told Webb he would be unable to stay for the entire concert because he had to attend a meeting. At the end of the night, Webb saw the fOrtner IU president congratulating the conductor. "The music was so beautiful and compelling that I could not tear myself away ," said Wells, answering Webb's inquiry. Webb said this story best portrays Wells' sincerity and genuine interest in the arts. "That is not the speech of an administrator giving lip service to the performers," Webb said. "It was a compelling remark; he was deepl y moved b y the music. It is a testimony to his appreciation of cultural and artistic things." Fraenkel said he clearly remembers a particular moment that captures Wells' character. He and Wells attended an opera while working together in Berlin. Then, one time Fraenkel went to the opera alone. During the intermission, a Russian gentleman and his wife approached him and asked about Wells. "I have observed you Fraenkel sitting with an extraordinary man. He has such an expressive face. Who is this man?" the Russian man asked. When Fraenkel watched the man return to his seat, he noted the huge distance between his seat and the gentleman's. "He [Wells] is a very, very special person. It's so much easier to say that he's a great administrator," Fraenkel said. But this story reveals that his inner self radiates. You combine that with a first-rate mind with total dedication to one task. "That's where it begins, with the soul of a person — it sends a message to those who are bright enough to hear. It gives an indication of [Wells'] inner self by a total stranger." El

scoff alexander After teaching IU's "Introduction to Religions in the West" course twice, religion professor Scott A. Alexander concluded his students were not learning what they hoped they would. Teaching the class using the historical approach, Alexander taught about how religions got started and how they grew, developed and changed throughout history. He enjoyed teaching about the grand traditions of religions. But at the end of the first semester, on faculty evaluations, some students said there was too much history and that they had taken the class to find out why Jews, Muslims and Christians observe specific religious traditions. "There were always a group of students who really appreciated the approach I took and learning about the evolution of traditions and rituals," Alexander said. Alexander found it very difficult to answer students' questions that probed beyond a historical context. Alexander, who received a doctorate degree in the history of religions from Columbia University, said he sees religion as an interdisciplinary major that combines literature, art, sociology and psychology; he doesn't view religion as a glorified Sunday School. "In the historical approach, you realize how diverse and complex traditions are," Alexander said. "You have to consider [the religions] in the time and period where the y lived." Although Alexander's class explored religious issues, he realized it did not tackle them directl y . Instead of expecting them to independently find explanations in their textbooks, Alexander listened to his students' questions and comments and realized what they were really asking him. "They were saving, 'How are these traditions relevant to my life?' `What do the Muslims in the cafeteria think about this or that?'" Alexander said. Alexander discovered a possible solution to these questions after learning about a grant competition that awarded money to help in making educational videos. "I thought making a video would be great," Alexander said. "I can't bring 200 students on a field trip, but I can bring cameras

to these places and capture a slice of the life of these people. I can capture worship services. More importantly, we could interview individuals — people who live and work in Bloomington, who share the students' social environment." After applying for a grant and making a proposal, Alexander received a grant from the IU center for Media and Teaching Recources for $10,000. With the help of Ralph Zuzolo, the center's director of production services, they began filming a 50minute video titled, "Abraham's Children: Ancient Heritage and Living Faith." Alexander was hopeful that the video would fill a void left by the textbook. "We're getting a lot of perspectives on this way by religious function in people's lives," he said. "And things like that are hard for me to deliver as one person. I can't speak for 20-year-old Jewish students at IU, but they can." The film will present aspects of what religion means in people's lives, while exploring various ritual practices and worship services. As Alexander recalled in one particular interview, "We interviewed a Jewish student about a moment in his life in which his Judaism played a significant role. He related [in the film] the time when his grandmother had died and how he felt connected to her. She had done the same traditions when she said good-bye to loved ones. Thousands of other Jewish people used these same traditions to help them through [similar] difficult times. "That student wasn't talking high-blown theology — he was talking about his personal experiences, things hard to capture through a book." "This video will help a lot of students," said sophomore Wendy Mathia, who took Alexander's class during summer session of 1994. "Through filming in Bloomington, students will see the video as being more relevent to their lives. The video will be a much more personal way for students to learn." 15

At the beginning of each new semester, students adjust to different schedules, classes and professors. With this, they must also learn what professors and associate instructors expect — a task that was not always easy. Phrases like, "He doesn't have a clue about what is going on," or "Mv Al doesn't like me, and she will make me fail this

class," were heard being lashed by students who felt their AIs lacked proper training to lead discussion sections. Although freshman Daniel MacBeth said he never had a terrible AI, he said he was in a history class where the AI provided intOrmation that contradicted what the professor said during lecture.

Katie Frazier, associate instructor adviser for Germanic studies, was hired to train the department's AIs properly. Frazier required the AIs in her department to attend a weeklong workshop before classes began. These sessions covered all aspects of the classroom, from teaching how to draft lesson plans to prepping

instructors with diversity training. Most fields had AI training similar to this department's. Many departments required AI students to attend teachers' training during Orientation Week. This seminar gave AIs practice teaching and supplied them with discussion-leading tips. In addition to these initial sessions, some departments, such as biology and

chemistry, required their AIs to participate in additional workshops and meet with their supervising professors during the semester. Chemistry graduate student John Christiansen was a chemistry Al for two years. Christiansen said although he found some training, such as an orientation training presentation on tire safety, to be helpful, he said the training could have been more extensive. "I was unprepared to handle a situation that arose, where I taught a general chemistry lab Monday morning that I couldn't prepare for because the lab was not open on the weekends," Christiansen said. "[Therefore I was teaching a lab I hadn't done myself." Christiansen said this lack of preparation was reflected in the students' assessment of the course. In their departmental evaluations,

the anthropology department, attempted to make teaching interesting for both the AI and the students. Jeanne Sept, AI training officer for the anthropology department, said these workshops let AIs improve their performances in the classroom. Milica Vranjes, an Al fbr HPER course F255, Human Sexuality , said she went through standard AI preparation. Dr. William Yarber, the course's professor, required the AIs for his course to attend F255 lecture with the students before they led individual discussions. Vranjes said requirements from the department physically prepared her to lead discussion but said she was left mentally underprepared. Vranjes said it was hard to remember that AIs were in a discussion to facilitate dialogue

LEARNING BY TAKING NOTE he said some students defined their AI as "incompetent." Christiansen said what might have seemed a lack of preparation might have been due to an inability to use the labs, not lack of knowledge. Some departments, such as the math department, felt Als deserved better training than what was offered during Orientation Week. The department required its graduate students who plan to assist professors to go through a mentoring program where graduate students got the chance to teach while still receiving help from the professors. Other departments, such as

and were not expected to teach the students in their sections. Josh Boyd, a doctoral candidate and an AI tin the speech department said his near-doctoral status allowed him to teach the students, not simply lead discussion. Boyd said, "We are given quite a bit of freedom, and I like it." As a result, students benefitted from well-trained, prepared AIs. Senior Lori Brown said she couldn't single out one AI she would consider to be incapable of teaching. "For the most part I can't complain," Brown said. "I have been lucky when it comes to both professors and AIs."

assistance from the National Science Foundation, the center opened its doors five years ago and was one of only 20 Research Training Groups of integrative science in America. The house's co-directors, Ellen Ketterson and William Timberlake, welcomed their 25 faculty and 41 graduate students. These researchers have earned field specialties in biology, psychology and medical sciences. Ketterson said merging different science disciplines gave the researchers a more complete study of animal behavior. When

the students and facult y met at the center, they shared their specific knowledge of science through discussions and oneon-one conversations. Neurologists and evolutionary biologists worked to bridge knowledge gaps between their specialized areas. "Interdisciplinary studies are a challenge," Ketterson said. "There arc jargons and a culture surrounding, each discipline." She said in her own field of biology studies, studying neurology helped her understand why snowbirds sometimes fight at bird feeders.

While a student, he was a member of the Sigma Nu fraternity and worked as the business manager of his senior class. The University appointed Wells the Dean of the School of Business Administration in 1935. Three years later, he became the 11 th president of the University March 24, 1938. At age 35, he was the youngest president in University history. Wells led the University through a predicted "educational blackout" of low enrollment and no funding after World War 11. In 1965, the then newly appointed chancellor said the chief goal of the University was, "The pursuit of excellence for the benefit of the student, of the state and of new knowledge."

the Midwest several educational foundations. These building, blocks included an emphasis on an international perspective and a balance between faculty teaching and research. In his inauguration speech, given Jan. 6, Brand underscored the importance of participating in the community to ensure America's future: "Too many of us are prone, more so now than in the past, to favor today over tomorrow," Brand said. To avoid being included in

this comment, Brand chose to think long-term. Before he came to Bloomington, Brand volunteered in his Oregon community, investing time to make it better. Brand served various philanthropic activities, such as the Metro Leaders Task Force on Human Rights and Affirmative Action, the Advisory Board of the League of Women Voters and the United Wav Steering Committee, which allowed him to contribute to his community.

Before he assumed the position of chancellor, he taught English and comparative literature classes for 31 years. In 1970, he became associate dean of arts and sciences. He took an English chair position in 1973 and in 1978 he became dean of college of arts and sciences. Gros Louis said his favorite aspects of the University are the atmosphere and friendliness on-campus. As chancellor, he met students, faculty and visitors. Gros Louis said this was his favorite aspect of the job, because it exposed him to a wide variety of people. He said he wished he could spend more time meeting people who attend school at or work for the University. "Some days there are too many meetings I have to attend, and I don't have time to respond to calls or e-mail messages," he said.

Building Upon Tradition Through the years, the buildings on campus transformed, but still kept their rich sense of history he University that has spanned to over eight campuses across the state of Indiana began as a State Seminary in Bloomington in 1824 with an enrollment of 10 men and a campus consisting of one building. Today, numerous limestone buildings, along with more modern structures, such as the IU Art Museum and the Musical Arts Center, extend throughout campus. The first building, erected on campus in 1824, was appropriately called the Seminary building. In 1836, the First College building was the next structure on campus, but it was destroyed by fire in 1854. The Science Building, which was completed in 1874, was also destroyed by fire in 1883. Buildings went through renovations, such as Owen Hall in 1911; and were rebuilt after fires, such as the Student Building in 1991. New structures continued to be erected, such as the School of Education in 1992. But whatever transformation buildings endured, all were laid upon a firm foundation of rich tradition.

Photo courtesy of University Archives The First College Building, shown here in this 1840 drawing by T.A. Wylie, was completed in 1836 at Seminary Square. The building burned down in 1854. Indiana University was born in 1820 as a State Seminary. In 1828 the State Seminary was renamed Indiana College, a name which lasted a decade. The General Assembly changed the name a final time in 1838, to Indiana University.

Wylie Hall (1884) Wylie Hall, named for Andrew Wylie, the University's first president, and Dr. Theophilus Wylie. "Andrew Wy lie was elected in 1829 and continued his faithful pilot until his death in 1851. Dr. [Theophilus] Wylie was a learned man and a good teacher. He was loved by all his students and his death was universall y mourned. "In the early [1830s], President Andrew Wylie required all students to attend morning prayers. Those prayers were more dreaded by the boys more than the day's work, for they were always held before breathst, and often befiwe sunrise. It was a common thing in the dim light of early dawn to see half-dressed boys scurrying across the campus, fastening their collars and buttoning their clothes as they went, in order to get to chapel before the bell stopped tolling. After roll-call and prayers most of the fellows no doubt went back to bed." — excerpted from the Arbutus, 1894.

Student Building (1904) The 1905 construction of the Student Building, which was designed by architect Bernard Vonnegut, was made possible by matching funds granted by John D. Rockefeller Senior and John D. Rockefeller Junior. The building was heavily damaged during a disastrous fire in December of 1990. The chimes were lifted out of the clock tower in January 1991 and the Student Building was rededicated the following October.

Franklin Hall (1907)

§111101--

Although Franklin Hall now serves an administrative function on-campus, the building once housed the undergraduate and graduate libraries. "'A little building with a big interior' is very frequently the substance of comment upon the home of the library. The simple, regular outline, the boldly framed roofs, the large scale of the 'a est wing containing the main reading rttom, contribute to tiirm the impression of a small and low, almost squat structure, an impression very thoroughly corrected b y a sight on the north elevation or a visit to the interior ... "It is estimated that the new building will be adequate tbr 20 years of library growth, but who knows?" — excerpted from the Arbutus, 1908.

exual harrassment, S power, political correctness, education. Who is the victim in the situation: male or female? These are the issues playwright David Mamet addressed in "Oleanna: A Power Play," presented Nov. 8-10 at the Ili Auditorium. Monica Koskey, a performer with the traveling Back Bay Theater Company, portrayed Carol, a confUsed and timid girl who sought help from her overbearing professor, John, played by Jim Frangione. In the first scene, Carol complained to John that she did not understand some of the concepts from his class. John, gripping Carol by the shoulders, explained that her questions were not important because

harassment was unexpected. "I look back at `Olcanna' as sort of a reality check," freshman Amy Gephart said. "I rarely think about sexual harassment, but it is a real thing that happens every day." "Oleanna" was a two character, one-setting play that forced the actors to rely on each other. With their powerful performances, Koskey and Frangione did justice to Mamet and "Oleanna." The play and its perfimners caused the audience to walk away with many thoughts and questions about its theme and purpose. "This play goes much deeper than sexual harassment. I feel it is about power, the things we are capable of when we have it, and what it does to us when we lose it," sophomore Kara Williams said.

higher education, or "prolonged hazing" as John described it, was a waste of time anyway. Preoccupied with his stance with the tenure committee and the new home he and his wife were about to purchase, John did not realize the effect his views and possibly suggestive actions were having on Carol. But with Carol's charge of sexual harassment to the tenure committee in the second scene, which consisted of inappropriate touching and unequal treatment of female students in the classroom, John's cool and collected appearance transformed to one of disarray and raggedness. As Carol's vocabulary, appearance and mannerisms slowly changed from ignorance and vulnerability in the first scene to power and intelligence by scene two, John's changed the opposite direction. For some students, the play's frank handling of sexual

Mamet, a Pulitzer Prize winner, created a play that addresses issues fbr people of all ages, sexes and professions. The play left its audience with unanswered questions about its purpose and intent. Audience members were given the opportunity to discuss and debate these questions during three post-performance discussions. These discussion sessions gave the audience a chance to address questions and issues such as: Were Carol's charges based on revenge, was it really sexual harassment and who was the real victim of the situation? "Hearing Koskey and Frangione's perspectives on `Oleanna' during the discussion helped me to better understand the play," Williams said. "These are important issues that need to continue being discussed."

But e-mail was not the only available alternative for entertainment-minded students. Through telnet, students could connect to a variety of MUDs (Multi-User Dimension) and MUSHs (Multi-User Shared Hallucination). These programs allowed computer users from all over the world to create characters and interact with each other in a shared "c y ber world." Although some universities banned the programs because

running them on computer s ystems was considered a waste of disk space, man y students found them to be a fun distraction to the monotony of studying. Sophomore I.esley McDugle said, "I've played a bunch of MUDs since I got here, and I love them. I've made tons of friends on them who I can talk to whenever life here gets too depressing. The y 've gotten me through some really rough times in the past year." These friendships were common tOr man y MUD users, and MUD get-togethers were frequent occurrences for many of them. Friendships, however, were not the onl y relationships created through MUDs. "I met my current boyfriend through a MUD," McDugle said.

fare. The setting was minimalistic and was coupled with five large screens that were used to view actual photographs from Nixon's visit. The show's music was unique. Most of the text was reflective; characters mainly spent their time reminiscing about the past, observing differences between their cultures and expressing their views concerning the future. They also "sang past" one another and seemed to be ignorant of the others singing around them. The result Was an

overlaying of voices that created difficulty in distinguishing the different characters' words. The musical score itself, as well as the lyrics, was overly repetitive and continuous. Musical rhythms and words were repeated several times in succession, making the songs seem choppy. At the beginning of one line, Nixon repeated the word "I" six times before completing the sentence. What made "Nixon in China" so unique was that it

portrayed a modern political event, not normally a popular operatic theme. Peter Sellars, the opera's original director, said, "Opera should be a real attempt ... to meet the world head-on and wrestle with the biggest problem at a given moment. Communist China is a great hot potato, and the world still doesn't know what to do about it." The opera opened as Nixon, played on alternating nights by graduate student Kreg Gotschall and junior Greeted by Premier Chou En-lai and Chinese citizens, Nixon (Kreg Gotschall) sings of his anticipation as he and his wife arrive in China for a visit. The visit served to bring about greater understanding of cultural differences for Nixon and the Chinese officials.

Andrew Hendricks, and his entourage, including Henry Kissinger, played by graduate students C. Louis Brooks and Daniel Cole, arrived at the Peking airport, where they were met by Premier Chou En-lai, played by graduate students Royce Blackburn and Ron Witzke, his officials and Chinese military personnel. The next scene involved a meeting between Nixon and Chairman Mao, played by doctoral student Brian Horne and junior David Trent, during which they discussed China's culture and Nixon's misconceptions of it. Everything Mao sang was reinforced b y his secretaries and the premier. The same evening, a great banquet was prepared at which toasts were exchanged. Nixon toasted the Chinese and the hope of peace, and Premier Chou toasted patriotic fraternity. The second act consisted of two scenes, the first of which portrayed what Mrs. Nixon, played by graduate students Carissa Casbon and Amy Simmons, did throughout the visit. She received gifts from factory workers and toured the Evergreen People's Commune, the Summer Palace and the Ming tombs. In the next scene, the Nixons, dicing with Premier Chou and Chairman Mao, viewed a propagandist opera originally conceived by Chairman Mao's wife, Chiang Ch'ing, played by senior Michelle Stephenson and graduate student Susan Swaney. "The Red Detachment of Women," which portrayed the violence of the

Chinese Cultural Revolution, affected the Nixons so extensivel y that they actually became part of the action. Kissenger was notably missing in the audience, and appeared, instead, in the role of the evil landlord. The final act consisted of a single scene in which each of the opera's major characters reflected on recent events of the visit and on their own personal histories. The Nixons sang about their lives during World War II, and Premier Chou, Chairman Mao and Chiang Ch'ing sang of their own involvement in the Chinese Cultural Revolution. Of special notice during the performance was the use of screens, which allowed what seemed to be a black background behind a well-lit scene to suddenl y change to reveal a different scenario behind it, complete with props and characters. A huge replica of Air Force I and a motorized vehicle also leant interesting qualities to the production. Audience reaction to "Nixon in China" w as mixed on opening night. A portion of the audience left the three-hour opera during either one of the two intermissions, and another portion rose to their feet in a standing ovation at the conclusion of the final scene. Graduate student Elizabeth Russell said, "I wasn't sure I would like it because it is minimalistic, but I think it is effective. The music, the stage setting and the acting all fuse together. I really enjoyed it." in

j & b on the rox A couple of years ago, Joe Nickell, a recent college graduate, was stumbling around town drunk. He fell into a gutter and couldn't get up. A passer-by with purple hair lifted him to his feet. The stranger took him home and sat him in front of a video camera. That was how Nickell explained the coming together of two incredible personalities. The combination of Joe Nickell and Bart Everson (the purple-headed stranger) produced something that would become a Bloomington and campus legend "J & B on the Rox." "I gradually came into control of m y problems and shortcomings," Nickell said. "Now we have a very functional working relationship in which he basicall y does all the work and I just drink." The two men made a reality-based, locally produced television show on BCAT that mirrored Bloomington. As Nickell said, "It's kinda a fun house mirror. One of those wavy things that makes you fat at the bottom and skinny at the top." "Rox," after a name change, otkred viewers an alternative to traditional television. MTV had "The Real World," but Everson said that anyone who had seen it knew it wasn't real. It was just people recruited to live together for a television show. "We've always tried not to be artsy or avant garde, although there is an edge to the program," he said. "The reason behind that is that we've taken on a philosophy of just being ver y honest about everything. We've discovered by accident that showing real life on TV is controversial." Controversial they were. The episodes had warning labels in the opening credits. The warning wasn't in vain the pair drank and cursed like sailors. In an infamous episode titled, "J & B Get Baked," which aired in May of 1994, the pair smoked marijuana on the steps of the courthouse — on television. The news hit the Associated Press wire. This publicity landed them on a radio show in Chicago and on the Howard Stern Show. Someone at MTV caught wind of the episode on Stern's show and put the clip on an hour-long program in which its own Kurt Loder was in New Amsterdam doing a show on how great drugs were.

"It all took us by surprise because we didn't realize how this had never been done before," Everson said. "There hasn't been a television series just dedicated to showing real people. 'Cops' is the closest thing to what we are." "Except in many ways," Nickell said. "It's the polar opposite." The cast members of "Rox" took their fame easil y . In two and a half years of doing the show, the y received about 250 letters. Fans sent everything from drink recipes to critiques of the show. One fan sent two or three envelopes a week stuffed with receipts from grocery stores and other stores. This went on until J & B tracked the man down, using information listed on receipts from the Bloomington Cat Hospital. "He turned out to be a really nice guy with too much time on his hands," Nickell said. "He was definitely the most consistent writer we've had." The show's broadcasting area was extended in February to include the Indianapolis area. Later in the semester, the show hit the Internet with shorter episodes for weekly distribution to anyone with access. "Our main goal is and always has been and probably always will be to stay here in Bloomington and keep doing this show on a local level," Nickell said. "I would hope that when your kids come to Indiana University, we'll still be doing this and you can accuse us of corrupting their minds and forcing them to drop out and do drugs — it's kinda our goal in life to subvert the student face of the University. "It's only part of the grand master scheme that's at work here. A lot of people look at this TV show and see us as bumbling and tripping- over ourselves and forgetting what we're going to say," he said. "That's all really an illusion. There's really a large corporate structure in place that allows us to continue doing this, and every week we put out a new show even though in actuality, we're in the Caribbean - soaking up the rays."

Amy Ray and Emily Sailers of the Indigo Girls perform a new song at their Oct. 3 concert. The show kicked off Union Board's 1995 Concert Series.

ith a spectacW ular array of performers lined up, Union Board launched its 1995 Concert Series with four national acts in October. Bands ranging from the folksy series opener Indigo Girls and the soulful Tori Amos to the hard-edged Phish hit the stage of the IU Auditorium first semester, while second semester brought the campus George Clinton and the P-Funk Band and the Grateful Dead-inspired Blues Traveler, which closed out the season April 7. After several years of only the occasional concert, the season brought music fans of all kinds an unexpected and wellreceived change.

When opening act Ban de Soleil finished its loud and thrashing set, a collective sense of anxiousness was felt in the Auditorium Oct. 3, as the crowd anticipated its real reason for being there. As the lights came back on the stage, Ban de Soleil's equipment was escorted away by stagehands, and the crowd waited with the knowledge that it would take at least another 20 minutes to reset. But the resetting never occurred. Instead, the Indigo Girls took the stage, offering only themselves, a variety of guitars and a huge backdrop of a swampy scene. For all those watching, that was plenty. Amy Ray and Emily Saliers instantly began entertaining the crowd with their smooth and delicate ballad, "The Wood Song." As the music and lyrics rolled on, the lack of a back-up band became less and less apparent. Few groups could reach out and cradle an audience's attention the way these ladies did without using any gimmick or hype. The Indigo Girls also continued

elighted the audience by not only D highlighting hits off their most recent album„Swanip Ophclia, but also rewarding their career-long- fans by traveling back into their repertoire. The Indigo Girls treated their guests to several offerings from their rarely-appreciated third album, Indians, Nomads, and Saints, when they performed a quick-moving "Hammer and a Nail" and the emotionally charged "Watershed." Because of their reclusive habits and joy of privacy , the duo were often victim to chastisement by fans and critics who wanted to know more about them as people. The fans at this concert were given more talk between numbers than the Indigo Girls had been known to give in the past. Ray said, "I'm in a goofy mood tonight." The Girls also revealed insight into their high school experiences, childhoods and the origins of many of their songs. The show closed with what had become the duo's signature song, "Closer to Fine," with several audience members being asked to join Ray and Sailers on stage.

Tori Amos Although the audience sat politely on the evening of Oct. 11, listening as guitarist and singer Peter Stewart of the band, Dog's Eye View, performed, their impatience pulsed from floor to balcony in the filled-tocapacity Auditorium. Almost an hour later, after two spasms of applause to coax the awaited musician from backstage, Tori Amos took to her piano. Without hesitation, she broke into a sultry rendition of Bruce Springsteen's "I'm on Fire." Amos faced the audience as she hit the key board of the grand piano, releasing the

164 Entertainment

power and emotion from within herself into the instrument and then into the crowd. Her breathy voice was as riveting as the light show that pierced the audience members in their seats throughout the show. She sang a variety of pieces from her first album, Little Earthquakes, including "Leather," "Precious Things" and "Silent All These Years," as well as songs from her latest release, Under the Pink, including "Waitress," "Space Dog," and "Bells for Her" on a modified upright piano, and hits "God" and "Corntlake Girl." After three songs, Amos said hello to the mesmerized crowd. "I really couldn't take my eyes off her," freshman Ben French said. "I hadn't listened to much Tori Amos, and I wasn't sure what to expect. After about five minutes, I knew I was in tOr a treat. Her voice was so clear and perfect, I just could not believe it was coming from this thin, red-haired figure on stage." Throughout the pertOrmance, she rarely spoke with the audience, with the exception of taking time in the middle of the show to tease her male fans. Amos said, "Girls have to do what the y can to stay alive [in relationships]. I'm learning from my friend. She's a dominatrix." Her openness was not limited to her playful interaction with the audience. Under a spotlight, Amos performed "Me and a Gun," an a cappella piece from Little Earthquakes about her experience with rape. After two encores, Amos blew her fans a kiss and left the stage.

Making smart remarks to the crowd, dancing across the stage and belting out l y rics as only she could, Melissa Etheridge wowed the packed Auditorium crowd Oct. 18, her second Indiana showing for her "Yes I Am"

tour, named after her album of the same name. Her raspy, powerful voice tilled the back corners of the room as she sang her first selection, "If I Only Wanted To." With only a short break through part of one song, Etheridge did not leave the stage for more than two hours. "It was pretty amazing she played the whole time," senior Misty Harrison said. But even more impressive to many students was her rapport with the audience. Clapping, laughing and screaming, the crowd wouldn't let her leave until after two encores. One fan even held a huge window frame during Etheridge's "Come to My Window." "She played with the crowd," senior Christy Pixley said. "That made it a lot of fun. Everyone was absolutely into it the whole time she sang." Harrison said, "She didn't seem very feminine, [but after] seeing her play, she was adorable." Senior Tara Bakhle said the highlight of the show for her was when Etheridge played a few of her older songs alone without the band. Pixley enjoyed "Occasionall y" the most, in which Etheridge struck the rh ythm on the back of her guitar. A crowd favorite was when the band and Etheridge joined together behind the drums. Beating each others' sticks and the drums, the group created a unique sound. After her first encore, in which she sang the famous "Like the Way I Do," Etheridge teased the audience with a long absence. Finally returning, she finished the night with a new song, "I Take You With Me." From the amount of applause Etheridge received at the concert's conclusion, it seemed that the fans had no complaints. "I enjoyed the whole thing," Pixle y said.

But after recognising their talent, not to mention t he group's hit, "Hold M y Hand," it was obvious that this was a band with focus and an eager collection of fans. But Big Head Todd and the Monsters did not have this same focus. It was too bad that Big Head Todd and the Monsters did not heed to the advice, "Don't be something you're not." If onl y they would have listened and responded to the audience's sighs of relaxation at the unforced mellow sounds of "Broken Hearted Savior" and "A Soul for Every Cowboy."

"I remember sitting there thinking-, 'I can't believe I paid to see this,'" senior fen McConnell said. "The crowd just couldn't get into it.

In the middle of the show, the tranquil cafe-blue lighting (reminiscent of the blue album cover on Sister .Sweetly ) turned into a gaud y rainbow spectrum.

"Overall, I was disappointed. The y paled in comparison to Hootic and the Blowfish because Hootic was so energetic." When listening with close friends together at night, the warm addictive hum of Big Head Todd and the Monsters can conjure a state of euphoria. In the middle of strangers, the "hard" Big Head Todd can only encourage quick departures.

When 'road the Wet Sprocket finall y took the stage at almost midnight, audience members immediately began dancing in the aisles and swaying to the music. As singer Glen Phillips walked on stage, baretbot and carrying a guitar, and began "Fly From Heaven" from the group's latest album, Dulcenia, the audience erupted in cheers. "The opening band was incredible," sophomore Kate Meyer said. "Toad kept it up with a phenomenal performance. The music sounded even

better live than it did on the albums, and I thought he Phillips] had a great way of interacting with the audience." Throughout the concert, Phillips continuously joked with the audience. An amusing point in the show occurred when the band played an homage to Bloomington's John Mellencamp. Toad's rendition of "Jack and Diane" started a group singalong. Although Phillips didn't quite remember all the words to the song, the audience helped him along. Toad played songs mainly from Fear and Dulcenia including hits "Walk on the Ocean," "Hold Her Down" and "All I Want." The audience kept begging for more, and between

sets shouted, "Toad! Toad! Toad!" The band played until 1:30 a.m. and kept up their energy the entire time. They ended with "I Will Not Take These Things for Granted," and the dynamic "Reincarnation Song," leaving the audience captivated by their powerful performance. Greg Canfield, a sophomore at IU-Southeast in New Albany, said, "I didn't know what to expect before the concert since the band often times has such a quiet feel to their albums, but afterwards I came to the conclusion that they can hold their own in an auditorium-rock atmosphere."

After a spirited, if little-attended opening perfOrmance by The Gigolo Aunts and a wellreceived appearance by MC 900 Ft. Jesus, the Cranberries hit the stage of the auditorium, which was appropriatel y decorated with plastic flowers, hinting at the stiff performance the group was about to give, which sounded disappointingl y flat and lifeless. It was only after direct prompting from Dolores O'Riordan, the Cranberries' lead singer, that the crowd sang along with the chorus to the group's first hit "Linger." Although fiw the first half of the Nov. 14 show the Irish alternative-rock band seemed as if it was going through the motions, they perked up during the second half. O'Riordan even began to develop her stage presence and started to get into the music. Unfortunatel y , the rest of the band members remained a virtual nonpresence, fading into the background for almost the entire show. Despite their stoic demeanors, the Cranberries eventually injected a bit of spontaneous, real-live, rock and roll energy into the show during "Pretty," "I Can't Be With You," "Nothing at All" and "Zombie," which closed their set. Even after the lights went down, the crowd enthusiastically cheered, hooted and hollered for more. Eventually, they were given the encore they desired. Lighters burned high throughout the auditorium as O'Riordan returned to the stage alone and delivered a strong solo acoustic perfOrmance of the

ballad, "No Need to Argue." The rest of the band returned to the stage for two more numbers, "Empty" and "Please" during which it showed signs of loosening up, if only a little.

Phish Fans were expecting some hot sets here in Bloomington, and Phish delivered with its threehour performance at the auditorium on Nov. 19. As Phish concerts go, the show was on the upbeat side. The sets began with the bouncy, happy "Golgi Apparatus" and "Suzy Greenberg," and the second set ended with a rollicking romp through Led Zeppelin's "Good Times, Bad Times." Just a few songs earlier, drummer Jon Fishman had delighted the audience by coming out from behind his set, suited up as usual in a gaudy dress, to belt out a cover of Neil Diamond's "Cracklin' Rose." While other bands could choose one or two songs they covered out of respect or admiration, Phish did them one better. The band covered an impressive repertoire of songs — they rarely performed the same song two nights in a row. The band also had been known to incorporate quotes from various sources into their jams at will and ()lien without premeditation. They did this at their auditorium concert, as one song segued into the ending of the Rolling Stones' "Can't You Hear Me Knocking." The first set closed with the versatile musicians trading

instruments for a bluegrass set. Guitarist Trev Anastasio moved to a country fiddle, keyboardist Page McConnell left behind his piano for an upright bass, bassist Mike Gordon deftl y improvised on banjo and drummer Fishman strummed awa y on a mandolin. It was a bit out of tune, as the band freely admitted, but the four-part harmonies on "TwoDollar Bill" were sweet enough to make up for an y of that. Three songs in particular, "Run Like an Antelope" in the first set, "You Enjoy Myself" in the second set and "The Squirming Coil" in the encore, led to extended, more free-form jams. The jams were the attraction that had brought man y socalled "Phish heads" to follow the band for a whole leg of the tour, to tape shows and memorize set lists with a delightfully rabid fanaticism. The band that only two years before was pla ying in intimate clubs to small groups of hard-core fans, thankffilly, proved that it hadn't left behind any of its integrity or quirkiness to try to appeal to a wider audience range. "The Squirming Coil," the only song of the encore, was not as tight as most of the show. Gordon seemed to be forgetting the bass part during the instrumental bridges, and the frustrated look on his face demonstrated that this 4-year-old song might have just slipped his memory. McConnell finished the song with a solo resolution of the chords, repeating the changes without sounding repetitive. Very classy piano playing. On the whole, this show was hot. On fire. Nothing can top a good Phish show. El

He's really stocky, standing at 5 feet 8 inches, with bar room brawl pythons for arms. He looked like a sprouting, muscular roll of Life Savers. Clinton

I had called Clinton in his Nashville hotel and taped our phone conversation. Sitting on the couch at home, I pressed play, and HUZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZ. The tape recorder had picked up the word processor, not The Man. I freaked. I called his hotel room: "Naw, man, he left fbr the show." UnprofCssional, unprofessional, unprofessional — all my friends I told, all the people I told. I then called the Ramada Oprvland hotel in Nashville and got directions. I filled the tank up, grabbed some Ephedrine and orange juice, then headed south. I arrived at 1:30 a.m. and asked for George Clinton — the clerk didn't know who he was. So I asked her to dial his room, and she handed me the phone. "Hey , man, I heard your tape got fucked up." It was George. "We'll do something about that." "Uh, yeah. I'm down in the lobby," I told him. "No shit? Cool man, come on up." I knocked on the door and emcee Frogg, one of P-Funk's

invited me to sit at the foot of his bed, and he and Frogg started talking about the Apollo. Clinton reminisced about being 17 and 18, and how he and the original members of Parliament would enter amateur night every week under different names: Frogg: What's that place fill?

music got a three on it. I mean black radio is dead like a motherfucker. But there is some good white music though, like the (Red Hot Chili) Peppers, Soundgarden and the Beasties. I only mentioned them groups on Mothership because I liked them, but it still had a three on it. I mean it's cool, but do you want doobie in your funk? I mean the only real thing out there now is hip-hop. M.D.: You livened up a few white groups like the Chili Peppers. G.C.: They're funky as hell! Them and Fishbone, when they play together, are real good. They both should be Parliament-Funkadelic. We just did a record with Fishbonc; it's coming out with the Black Panther movie. M.D.: You wanted to make funk as legitimate as jazz? G.C.: Yeah, there are quite a few people who have done their theses On funk, at UCLA, Berkeley, Boston University. It's in the curriculum at UCLA — you actually can study funk.

G.C.: Back then, about 2,500 ... all Harlem motherfuckers. When I lived in Jersey, I used to skip school and go to the Apollo all day. They would run a movie, then a show, about three times a day. Then I'd catch the last train to Port Authority, then back to Jersey.

M.D.: You said that legitimizing funk was your goal. How do you feel about accomplishing that?

Frogg: (in awe) If you couldn't do funk, what kind of music would you be doing?

M.D.: You said you knew hiphop was going to stick around because everyone hated it.

G.C.: Doo-wop. But funk gives you the ability to do any type of music you want to do. We could do classical and make it funk.

G.C.: Yeah, when somebody says, "I hate it. Turn that shit off," I know it's going to work. Because that's the way it was with rock and roll when I was growing up. Rock and roll now is classical music. You can hear rock and roll on Muzak. The same thing is going to happen to continued

M.D.: Does white music still have a three On it, like you said On Mothership Connection? G.C.: I think a lot of black

underground. They actually had the nerve to say , "Fuck radio." M.D.: In your music there is always a serious slant, but underneath one big positive party. A lot of hip-hop doesn't provide that positive message. G.C.: One of the first things you learn in the ghetto is to take "Your Momma." Once you can take that, you can go anywhere in the ghetto and not have to worry about What somebody calls you. So it was easy for people to go into hip-hop with a "dis." The industry liked that,

until they started dissing the go\ ernment, like Public Enemy and KRS-One. Then they started labeling it gangster rap, but they (rappers) didn't give a fuck who they were talking about....

G.C.: Yeah. Most rappers are coming in third person, even though they say, "I got my Glock, I got my this..." That's what art is. On Free Your Mind and Your Ass Will Follow, we did "Eulogy and Light." "Our Father which art in Wall Street, hallowed be thy buck/my pinky ring and my Cadillac, they restore me in thee."

Although the dark plot has turned sonic directors a Wav from the show, director Brett Harwood took on the tale. "When I tell some people that I'm directing Stephen Sondheim's `Sweene y Todd,' they look at me like I'm crazy," Harwood, a senior, said. Not only was it a gruesome tale, he

said, but the music was challenging as well. Under Harwood's direction, the cast consisted of 36 students on stage while 24 perlOrmed the modernist, eerie musical score. With a minimalist set and a lot of creativity , the settings surrounding the cast helped bring the Demon Barber to life. Scene designers Buz Drvfoose and senior Kent Cyr created mobile sets to help the action move smoothly and quickly from Mrs. Lovett's pie shop to the judge's house.

Notable standout junior Antonia Ham, who played the lovable Mrs. Lovett, shone with her wonderful accent. She handled the cockeyed English without losing her diction.

Wiltrout, 26, who graduated in May after eight years on and off of college, has been with the band from the beginning. "I can't believe it's been four and half years," Wiltrout said. "The way it started out it was pretty much a lark. Basically, it was a way to get free beer. We got a lot of free beer. "Our first gig was in the basement of a friend's house for a Halloween party. Oh, man, I loved it. Just watching all the people jumping up and down ... it was really self-affirming ... that sounds stupid, I dunno, it's just a lot of fun." Until the formation of Johnn y Socko, Wiltrout never performed, sang or wore a Taco Bell uniform in public. He was and is by his own definition a shy person. His friends, or more precisely the guitarist and bassist for Socko, had more confidence in him. "They knew I was enough of a geck that I'd work out, that I'd jump around a lot," Wiltrout said. Standing just over 5-feet tall with the stocky body of a gymnast or a welterweight boxer, it is only the mutton chops that give him away as a singer in a weirdo funk band. When not on stage, Wiltrout is reserved, thoughtful and concise with his words. When on stage, he is more like a large Mexican jumping bean suffering from Turrets Syndrome with a microphone stuck to its mouth. He's ver y aware of lio\\ cliched it sounds to sa y that he does it because it's a blast. But that is the main reason, because he is having a blast. The band is finall y making enough money that he no longer has to hold down another job to make rent. "It feels like a worthwhile pursuit. It's a talent I have and makes me enough to live on, I

don't have a family or overwhelming, debts," Wiltrout said. "The big, big, music industry bucks arc the carrot dangling wa y down the stick that y ou have to totall y enjoy what you're doing or you'll hate yourself." Being a full-time student and band member took a toll on him. Socko took up 70 hours a week of his time; sleeping, eating and school work took up the rest of it. He felt getting a degree was important, mostly out of a Midwestern level-headedness that tells hint "making it" in the music industry is a long shot. That was why he returned to school to finish his sheepskin after traveling in Furore and living in Washington D.C.. At times the combined workload was almost overwelming. Once after a gig in Indianapolis, he went to the IUPUI campus, stayed up all night to write a paper, faxed it to his professor, and then went to Chicago to play in another gig. The long days, the nights spent in a van, the stench of gig clothes that haven't been washed for a month can and do wear cm Wiltrout. All that is part of it when you are knocking on the door of the music industry. Another reason Wiltrout puts up with it is because he likes what lie does. To him the most important part of pla ying music is that it has to be fun. Not only that, his parents are very supportive of what he does. "One time they [his parents] showed up to a gig at Second Story. I either forgot they were coming and they brought some friends, too, or I was just too drunk to care. I planned to dress as Christ that night. I did, too. I had a great big crucifix that I was carrying around, a beard, tattered clothing. The people that they brought to the show were people they met from the church we used to go to. It was a complete fiasco. But other than that, the y are really proud of me," he said. I was thinking the other day about stuff I'd reall y like to do to perpetuate the t ype of stuff I do right now. Being in front of a crowd and being a goof," Wiltrout said. "Thought I may be a game show host. That or a circus ringmaster."

(lower right) In "Summer and Smoke," Alma Winemiller (Sarah Louise Turner) explains her moralistic philosophy on life to John Buchanan Jr. (Chris Tomaino). Although fond of John, Alma's religious upbringing would not allow her to accept his immoral ways.

Spending time together, Alma Winemiller and John Buchanan Ir. (Chris Tomaino) watch the fireworks from a bench in the park. Although Alma grew to love John, their relationship was destined to never progress beyond friendship. The play was held at the IU Theatre.

discovered he was already engaged to another woman. Forlorn and melancholy, Alma later found herself having a conversation with a traveling salesman, who invited her to a cafe in town. Resigned to her fate, Alma ultimatel y found herself in the position of a town harlot she had once scorned from atop her moral pedestal. The show's plot was known for its incredible sense of irony, a quality that was vividl y expressed in the written script and even more so on stage. Freshman Madeleine Gonin said, "I was impressed with the plot because of the irony present in it and because of the unpredictable ending." Turner's depiction of Alma Winemiller was trul y vibrant and expressive. Through her highly animated portrayal of the character, Turner displayed a terrific ability for attracting the attention of the audience early in the performance and maintaining her grip on it for the remainder of the play. But Turner also exhibited skill in particularly poignant and emotional scenes involving her character and John Buchanan Jr., who was her exact antithesis.

Turner could not have shone so brightl y if it were not for Tomaino's brilliant performance. His portrayal of John Buchanan Jr., a young, well-off Southern gentleman with a penchant for booze and loose women, was intense and distinctive. He demonstrated great ability in emotionally draining scenes and interacted smoothly with Alma Winemiller and other characters. But the spectacular cast was not the show's only exceptional attribute. The stage crew also contributed a great deal of talent to the production. Of particular notice was the elaborate set design. As the curtains opened on the first scene, murmurs of admiration escaped from the audience. Although it was simple in the sense that the set did not require the movement of several large pieces of scenery, the set was anything but simple in the areas of design and lighting. Members of the scenery construction crew, who were responsible for creating the set, produced charming and realistic results. The set consisted of a living room and a study during the majority of the play.

Outdoor scenes in a park highlighted the change of seasons using natural lighting and colored lights to simulate fireworks. Sound effects, such as exploding fireworks and blowing wind, contributed to the realistic nature of the scene. Freshman Aaron Abraham said, "The set was well-done. When I watch a play, I reall y like to see colorful scenery and creative effort. The set in 'Summer and Smoke' was exactl y that." A unique and exquisite highlight of the set was a running water fountain, which appeared to be composed of granite in the shape of a benevolent and merciful angel. Overall, the Theatre's production of "Summer and Smoke" was a success because of the combined efforts and hard work of cast and crew. Audience reaction was favorable, and although a standing ovation was not given, it could easily be argued that one was due. "I thought that the cast and play were brilliant," Gonin said. "And I would certainly consider going to see one of Tennessee Williams' pla ys again."

People could just sign up, and they were entered for the contest starting around 1 a.m. The number of participants varied from week to week, but the bar tried to keep the number between six and eight for both the male and female categories.

didn't sound too bad, except the winner of that night's contest was registered for a trip to Acapulco. Dime beer also drew people to Mars where they smashed shoulder to shoulder and waited in long lines at the bar. The typical Thursday night packed in 800 to 1,000 people compared to about 650 people on Friday nights and 700 to 900 people Saturday. Junior Gabe Paige got on stage one night with a friend and ended up winning the contest, just two days after his 21st birthday. "I couldn't believe I won," Paige said. "We'd been

drinking all night, and the stage was all slippery from beer, so we were up there sliding all over the place. I knew so man y people in there - I think that helped a lot." Although a lot of alcohol might help get people up on stage, not everyone in the contest is drunk nor do all of the girls take off their clothes. Senior Kerri McDaniel entered early in the fall completely sober, and she said she didn't take any clothes off, didn't get booed and ended up with a couple of eights for her score. "You definitely have to show flesh to win," McDaniel said. "The girl who won had

only her underwear on. She was ugly, her bra was totally off, and she was just standing there. Hello, no morals." Curtis said the only rule was that there is no nudity. Whether that was enforced or not was another story. The only problems the bar ran into with the contest were in its early days. "When we first started doing it, we did have some problems with some of the girls," Curtis said. "Some of the girls entering were strippers. Some of them were getting pretty risque. We haven't had any problems in the last six months."

If people have problems with the contest, they can leave or go to the front of the bar to get away from the competition. Pool tables and a big screen television in the front of the bar entertained customers while the contest is going- on. "The y [the customers] are pretty much aware of what's going on, and it only lasts 20 minutes, so the place is big enough if you don't want to watch it - go up front," Curtis said. "But there's 800 people back here, guys and girls, screamin' and freaking out." 15 by

"They [the guy] will usually want to pay, so you'll have to take them up on the free food," she said. But the key to any good party is good music, Mann said. "People go to parties to dance, and if the music is bad then everyone just gets drunk and stands around," she said. Overall, Mann said, Bloomington is a good place to party. "There's always a party going on. And it is easy to meet people, but hard to get to know them because so many people arc just out to have fun," she said. When comparing bars to fraternity

or house/apartment parties, senior Camille Starks said that both choices have important benefits. Fraternit y and house/apartment parties arc good primaril y because people don't have to pay to get in. "It's easier to hook up at fiat parties," Starks said, "but it's mostly a homogeneous crowd." Starks said she likes bars better because she has gotten to know a lot of regulars at the bars she goes to (she calls them "bar pals"). She also enjoyed the live music, the dancing and the fact that bars attracted different types of people. Starks said she would always like to meet a guy when she is out, but she usuall y doesn't meet the type of guy she is looking for and is there just to have

fun and spend time with her friends. It seemed that Bloomington and the campus itself offered a cornucopia of social situations fOr students who were willing to experiment, and, as Starks said, "If you want to find what you are looking for, it all depends on where you go." But what students were looking for inevitably changed over the course of time. Perhaps Berg summed up the college dating scene best when he said, "You go through stages. There's sonic people who want to find the perfect someone, but there's some people who just want to go out and have fun. At one point or another, everyone is finally going to hit that stage when they want to just settle down." El

"Soul Revue goes to the next level," Thompson said. "Choral Ensemble was gospel music, and you don't want to be disrespectful. With Soul Revue, we deal more with the audience — you know, we can be out there gyrating our hips and everything." The singers belting out tunes from "Please, Mr. Postman" to "I'll Be There," in the group's Motown Revue, and dancers doing "The Tootsie Roll" and jamming to "This is How We Do It" by Monte] Jordan, demonstrated Soul Revue's dedication to quality.

Bluebird reaches drinking age Popular music venue celebrates its 21st birthday and continues to rock Bloomingotn ednesday night, well after 11 p.m., a line of mostly students spills onto the W sidewalk outside waiting for their chance to enter one of Bloomington's most popular and long-standing music venues the Bluebird. Long lines extending past Johnny Rockit's pizza were commonplace for bands like Real Eyes and Situation Grey. Wednesday nights, better known to students as dime beer night, also attracted customers in search of a mid-week break from studying and working. Jan. 21, the Bird celebrated its own "coming of age" by hosting a birthday party in honor of its commitment to bringing in local, regional and national artists to the Bloomington community during the past 21 years. The first 21 customers were treated to 21-day free passes, and students who shared the club's birthday received a one-year free pass. Although the history of "Bloomington's Rock 'N' Roll Tradition" dates back to its opening in December 1973, the building itself has a past of its own. Co-owner Steve Ross said the building began as a livery stable for horses in the early 1900s. Between the 1920s and 1930s, the building housed an appliance store, soda shop and later a jewelry store. During the same time an auto repair shop occupied the back part of the store. It has been said, however, that the front of the building was a speak-easy, an underground bar that offered alcohol during prohibition and the back room was used to brew beer. It was not until the 1940s that the building on Walnut Avenue became a bar, and during this time the front and back sections were opened and joined together in what more closely resembles the Bluebird of today.

ack where customers were encouraged to practice their skills. In the 1960s the bar B changed tOcus again to become Your Place, a club which offered live jazz, blues and rh ythm and blues music. Finally in December 1973, John Ross and Doug Turnball purchased the space and opened the Bluebird. In October 1981, those two men sold the club to the current owners, Dennis Burris and Steve Ross, John's brother, both were interested in keeping the atmosphere the Bluebird become famous tier through the past few years. The atmosphere of the club caught the attention of bar-goers and musicians alike. Big time artists like Leon Redbone, Lou Reed, John Prine and Humble Pie have graced the bar with their presence. Hometown favorite John MeHelically also pertOrmed during the early days of his career. "It was one of the smaller places he [Mellencamp[ played when he began to break out [to the larger music scene]," Ross said. Crystal Paliter°, who toured with Bill y Joel

and Elton John, had the opportunity to play at the Bird as well during her days as a Bloomington student. Paliter°, who was known for playing percussion, guitar, harmonica and singing backup, went on to work with Bruce Springsteen and Bob Segar after playing the Bird, said Ross. The smaller club allowed owners and bargoers to see another side of the big-name performers. Artists like Mitch Ryder, whose big song was " D evi l wit h a Blue Dress," and the Fabulous Thunderbirds also drew big crowds. "Stevie's Ray 's brother played; he was cool," Ross said. "The majority of the bigger named artists are reall y nice people, and you wouldn't believe it." During the earl y 1980s, Ross talked with Rick Nelson during the NBA finals. Nelson told Ross, "'I can either be sitting in m y hotel room watching the finals or pla ying a club,'" Ross said. He chose to play the club. "He was as downhome as you and me." "It was pretty unbelievable that these huge musicians played such a small place," Ross said,

ut it was not the big names that gave the Bluebird its claim to being a B "Rock 'N' Roll tradition." Smaller groups which were staples to the music scene during the '80s helped define the Bird. Dr. Bop and the Headliners and Blue Hue were two such bands that had "people who really made the Bluebird what it really is" in Ross' eyes. Local and regional bands like Johnny Socko, The Wh y Store and Real Eyes kept the tradition going. To acknowledge those bands that helped build Bluebird's reputation, Ross plastered the wall by the backstage door with old fliers. PerfOrmers such as Sun Ra and the Spirtles are some of the bands featured in large framed photographs in the back room. "We took some of the bigger perfOrmers and put them on the wall," Ross said. More noticeable items to the Bird decor were the various memorabilia throughout the entire club like the BSA motorc ycle by the front entrance. According to legend, a bargoer approached one of the first owners in the early 1970s in an effort to get some quick cash. The bar owner bought the bike fOr 850 and as part of the deal, made the biker help him move it onto the top of a cooler, where it stands today. Ross said theoretically the bike should still work.

Perched above a cooler, a motorcycle adds to the unique decor in the Bluebird. In the early 1970s, a customer in desperate need of cash sold the bike to the owner for $50. Coowner Steve Ross said the bike should still be capable of running.

On a particularly busy night, students jam into the dance area in an effort to get closer to the band. For those uninterested in the music, booths were available by the front bar for socializing.

The atmosphere of the bar was not limited to the decor. "It smells bad," Johnny Socko bassist Steve Mascari said. "We don't need to bring our fog machine since there is already enough smoke in there." But despite the air, Mascari appreciated the bar for always having a good crowd, people dancing, a big stage and lots of beer. Junior Becky Wiggans, although not being a musician, also liked the Bluebird for the dime beer, dance floor and variety in bands. "I like the variety of music that they have going on there, and the fact that they do get non-cover bands," Wiggans said. "The people that work there are nice, and there is no place better to go in town." "Even though there are other music clubs [in Blooming-ton], every other place has gone through so many changes," Mascari said. "But the Bluebird has stayed what it is. It feels like home now." in

SEASON OF SUCCESS BY RONNY WHITWORTH

"ANYTIME YOU GET THE NATIONAL RANKING, IT'S A PLUS. IT GETS YOU NATIONAL EXPOSURE, AND IT HELPS RECRUITING. THESE; PLAYERS AND 'nits TEAM DESERVE IT

THIS TIME, ESPECIALLY AFTER THIS WEEKEND." COACH JERRY YEAGLEY

Even befbre the Hoosiers played their first game or the season, they were struck with an immediate problem. Rolando Carrascoca, an IS-year-old redshirt freshman from Vincenza, Ital y , tore an anterior cruciate ligament in his right knee and was declared out for the season. Carrascoca was expected to be a major offensive threat for the Hoosiers but instead was forced to sit out for the second straight season because of injuries. He was going to be an important part of our attack this season," Coach Jerry Yeagley said. "Once again, we are disappointed to have him out again this season. He was fitting in very nicely during our first week of practice. His special talents will be missed." With Carrascoca unavailable to play, the Hoosiers were forced to count on the otfrinsive prowess of junior forward Harry Weiss, the Big Ten's leaLing scorer. 1 But just two days later, Aug. 27 in an exhibition game against Butler, bad luck struck the Hoosiers once again, as Weiss went down with a sprained right knee in an on-field collision during a 4-0 shutout over the Bulldogs. Coach Yeagley was forced to look deep down the Hoosier bench for offensive productivity.

"With Harry out, he's our leading scorer and best finisher, and with [Carrascoca's injury], we are really thin up front," Coach Yeagle y said. Weiss would see very limited action throughout the season, failing to regain his incredible scoring abilit y , obviously bothered by the injury. As Weiss and Carrascoca were sidelined ftir the year, the Hoosier midfield, rated No. 1 by most national soccer publications, was challenged to create scoring opportunities as well as play good defense. National soccer publications recognized seniors Todd Yeagley, Brandon Ward, Craig Ginsburg, Steve Keller and Brian Maissonneuve as one of the greatest collegiate midfield combinations of all time. But the surprising play of freshmen Chris Klein and Caleb Porter helped the Hoosiers get out of their otfrinsive rut, as the two forwards became major factors on the IU scoring attack. Junior Jeff Bannister and junior Forwards Tim Hard y and Ginsberg also helped fill the offensive gap left b y Weiss. While I U found a way to put the ball in the net throughout the ■'ear, the Hoosiers' defense gave opponents major headaches, led b y the stellar play of seniors Mike Clark and John Vanbuskirk alongside junior George CrawfOrd. Clark, while not the most well-known player on the IU squad, Was elected co-captain along with Ward ftir his unbelievable defensive abilities and team leadership.

oach Yeagley said Clark was one of his C favorite players on the team. "I've seen national-caliber players running high and moving to different areas of the field, just to get away from Clark," Yeagley said. "He has won the battle, game in and game out. No one does it better than he does, I think, in college ball." And if opponents did find a way to get off a shot on the Hoosier defense, sophomore Scott Coufal provided a virtual brick wall in front of the IU goal, posting the nation's best goals against average, 0.53. Even before the first kickoff took place, the Hoosiers were expected to be front runners for the national championship. IU was ranked No. 1 or 2 in almost every preseason soccer poll. The first roadblock to that goal occurred in the adidas-

MetLife Classic at IU, where the North Carolina Tar Heels knocked off the Hoosiers, 2-1. UNC sophomore brothers Temoc and Victor Suarez scored back-to-back goals, just 53 seconds Apart, to lead UNC to the victory. The upset victory gave Ili its first lesson of the year — the team was not invincible. "I'm very disappointed for our seniors," Yeagley said. "[There was a] great crowd, a great weekend, a great field, and I truly thought that we were going to win it." But IU learned from the loss and used it to the team's advantage. The following weekend, the Hoosiers took out their frustrations on their opponents, the Miami (Ohio) Redskins and Kentucky. IU shutout the Redskins, 6-0, Sept. 9 before drilling the Wildcats, 61, Sept. 11 . Cringing in pain, senior Brian Maisonneuve falls to the ground against Drake Oct. 2.

f there were any further doubts about the Hoosiers' ability to score goals, they were put on the shelf Sept. 16, when IU embarrassed the No. 25 Akron Zips, 10-0, at Bill Armstrong Stadium. It was the largest margin of victory for the Hoosiers during the season. After the Akron victory, the Hoosier seniors received their first-ever game against a No. 1 team, the Saint Louis Billikens. In front of a standing-room only crowd at the Billikcn Sports Center in St. Louis, the Hoosiers destroyed their opponents, 4-0. The Hoosiers then were voted the No. 1 team in the nation and would hold that distinction for the majority of the season. Coach Yeagley was overjoyed at obtaining the No. 1

ranking, the first for the seniors on the squad. "Anytime you get the national ranking, it's a plus," Yeagley said. "It gets you national exposure, and it helps recruiting. These players and this team deserve it at this time, especially after this weekend." The Hoosiers proceeded to run through their next 15 games unscarred, accumulating a 17- 1 1 record before they suffered their second loss of the year, 32, at the hands of the Cal-State Fullerton Titans. The Titans knocked off the Hoosiers in a thrilling overtime battle at the UCLA adidas-MetLife Classic. But the loss didn't phase IU at all, as the Hoosiers picked right up where they left off, failing to lose another match until the national title game. One of the Hoosiers'

greatest moments of the season was their Big Ten tournament victory Nov. 13, with a 3-1 victory over the Penn State Nittany Lions. The tournament championship was the Hoosiers' third in the four-year history of Big Ten soccer. Coach Yeagley was pleased with the team's play to close out the season, a great way to lead into the NCAA tournament. "That's the most we've dominated a Penn State team in a long time," Yeagley said. "It was just a day where I felt we had control of the game about 15 minutes in and seemed to get stronger as the game went on." IU concluded the season with the No. 1 slot in the NCAA tournament and seemed to be in great shape to go to the Final Four for the second time in the seniors' careers. in

Loss to Virginia keeps Hoosiers from the NCAA Soccer Championship

ONE VICTORY SHORT BY RYAN WHIRTY

Garrett Ewald

As the final seconds ticked off the clock at Richardson Field in Davidson, N.C., senior midfielder Todd Yeagley stopped on the torn-up and ragged field and bowed his head slowly. The mission was over, and it had come up short. After a season that was earmarked by an intense drive to a national title that eluded IU the previous three years, the Hoosiers 1-0 loss to Virginia on Dec. 11 was a crushing blow. "The best way to describe my feelings right now is numb," Yeagley, an All-American, said after the game. "It doesn't feel like this is really happening." As the Cavaliers scampered around the field in jubilation, saluting their fans and piling up on top of each other in celebration of their fourth straight NCAA title, the Hoosiers wandered around the field in a daze. Some just stood on the brown grass in disbelief. Others fell to the ground and sat there, their arms around their knees. Still others joined Yeagley in a silent, mournfial bend at the waist. IU coach Jerry Yeagley mingled between his players in an attempt to console the team that had shown so much promise and came within one goal of winning a fourth NCAA title for IU soccer. "We'll try to win the championship next year," Coach Yeagley said. "We'll be back." For Virginia, the win marked an unprecedented fourth straight NCAA crown, and the Cavaliers did not hold back as they enjoyed the feeling. While

the Hoosiers worked through the pain of the loss, the Virginia players took the championship trophy and circled the chilly but sun-drenched stadium. The lone goal of the championship game came in the first half at the 20:06 mark. Virginia junior back Brandon Pollard lobbed a pass from the left side of the field into the keeper's box to senior forward A.J. Wood. Wood handled the ball with his chest and was challenged by IU sophomore goalkeeper Scott Coufal. Wood slipped the shot by the Hoosier goalie into the left side of .- • the net. The play left the Hoosiers in awe, stunning the IU side and effectively knocking the wind out of the Hoosiers for the rest of the game. "The goal they scored was a piece of work," Coach Yeagley said. "That was a big-time play. They won it on a great goal."' Coufal, who made three saves on the day, also credited the Virginia offense for the goal. "Basically, we knew that Pollard came down, and he had a wicked left-foot cross," he said. "That's what happened. Wood had a great chest trap and laid it off right in front of him perfect, and he just finished it off me."

"I TOLD MY SENIORS IT WAS THE BEST FOUR YEARS I'VE HAD IN MY CAREER. IT'S UNFORTUNATE THEY COULDN'T GET THE GOLD RING." COACH JERRY YEAGLEY

Redshirt freshman Caleb Porter drives over a slide tackle by a Virginia defender in the final game of the NCAA Tournament. The Virginia defense was able to hold the Hoosiers scoreless. A loss in the NCAA finals brings the end of the Hoosiers' successful season. Junior George Crawford showed his emotions following the final game.

nce the score was in their fhvor, the Cavaliers dug in and played solid, tight defense, limiting the Hoosiers to 11 shots all game. The best IU opportunity came with just more than fbur minutes left in the first half. IU senior midfielder Brian Maisonneuve, the Big Ten Most Valuable Player, whirled near the top left corner of the box and fired a shot at the net. The ball appeared to be headed fiir the open net, but Virginia freshman midfielder Bill y Walsh appeared out of nowhere to deflect the shot. "Today we just couldn't finish them," Maisonneuve said. "I had a couple of opportunities I didn't put away, and the team in general had a couple of chances we just couldn't capitalize on. Maybe on a different day they would have gone in." The day against Virginia brought a stunning close to the near-flawless play by the Hoosiers throughout the tournament. Starting postseason play on their own turf at Bill Armstrong Stadium, the IU team beat Notre Dame, 1-0, and continued to play aggressive defense in their next game with a 1-0 win against Creighton. It was fitting for the team to find themselves once again in front of their home crowd to take on their next opponent in the tournament, Cal-State Fullerton. The game would determine whether or not the Hoosiers would find themselves among the four teams playing for the national championship in Davidson, N.C. And the team did not leave their fans disappointed. The Hoosiers 2-1 win meant a trip to North Carolina in the eyes of their faithful fans. And a first round game against the UCLA Bruins, who they previously beat during the season, 2-0. Just five minutes into the second half of the Hoosiers' 4-1 win over UCLA, IU junior forward Jeff Bannister took a pass from Maisonneuve and

delivered the knockout punch to the Bruins. As soon as the ball stretched the fabric of the net, Bannister darted across the field to the sideline and stuck his fist in the air in celebration toward the mass of crazed Hoosier fans who had made the long trek to Davidson College to watch the Hoosiers try to win their fourth NCAA title. "I definitely felt like I owed it to the fans," said Bannister, whose goal raised the IU lead to 3-1. "There were a lot of alumni, family and friends in the stands. All season we've had a pretty good following." As soon as Bannister saluted the crowd, the fans erupted in cheers. The mob of IU faithful and Bannister knew his goal would put the Hoosiers into the final game against Virginia. Unfortunately, for the Hoosiers, their dominating play against the Bruins did not carry over in the final game. But to Coach Yeagley and the NCAA MEN'S SOCCER supportive fans, the TOURNAMENT word champion was in the eyes of the W/L Score Opponent beholder. Yeagley 1-0 w Notre Dame 1-0 w Creighton described the senior w 2-1 Cal-State Fullerton class as one of the UCLA w 4-1 0-I Virginia L greatest group of players to come 4-1 through the IU program in Hoosier history. "I told the seniors it was the best four years I've had in my career. It's unfortunate they couldn't get the gold ring," he said. "In my mind and those who know our program, they'll go down as one of the greatest teams we've had." But fate came crashing down on the IU seniors and spoiled what could have been the greatest year in soccer history for the Hoosiers. "It's so hard to take something like this," Todd Yeagley said. "It's hard for all of us. In the back of my mind, I'm thinking we still have to be proud of what we've done. I still feel we're the best team in the country." fin

When IU men's soccer coach Jerry Yeagley recruited his son, Todd Yeagley, and Michigan-native Brian Maisonneuve to pla y for his squad in 1991, he knew his program would be great for the next four years. While Yeagley and Maisonneuve were an integral part of the team chemistry that led the Hoosiers to the 1994 NCAA Championship game, both players received postseason accolades for their individual achievements in soccer.

During the week of Jan. 9, Yeagley received the Missouri Athletic Club Player of the Year award, while Maisonneuve picked up the Hermann Trophy. The MAC and Hermann trophies are the two biggest awards in college soccer. And Jan. 31, Maisonneuve and Yeagley were awarded for their success, as they became the first two college athletes signed with America's newest professional sports league, Major League Soccer.

The award, soccer's equivalent to football's Heisman Trophy, honored the top soccer player in the nation. Maisonneuve was a twotime Big Ten Player of the Year.

Yeagley's life since he was a kid. He grew up around the legends of the Hoosier soccer team and learned to play watching the best collegiate players in the nation. Yeagley's knowledge of the sport separated him from other athletes on the field. He studied the sport his entire life and applied the skills he learned to his techniques on the field. "He's a soccer junkie," Coach Yeagley said. "Todd would read anything he could get his hands on. I had to go through his room to find any videotape because that is where it would end up. It's just been a big part of his life. I think that helped him understand the game." Yeagley said he was thrilled to be named the MAC winner, but other players such as Maisonneuve were just as deserving of the honor. "To get all this attention and to get claimed the best player in the country is quite an honor," Yeagley said. "But it's among great company. I take it in a lot

of honor, but I also know there arc a lot of players that are just as deserving as I am." Redshirt freshman Caleb Porter said Yeagley was a tremendous team leader both on and off the field. "He was definitely a mentor of mine," Porter said. "Todd has helped me out a lot, especially since I've lived with him. When things aren't going well with me, I'd ask his opinion on stuff, and he always had the right answer because he's basically been with Indiana soccer forever." Maisonneuve was an IU legend in his own right. A true ironman, Maisonneuve started every single game of his college career and was twice named the Big Ten Player of the Year. Being one of three finalists for the college soccer's version of the Heisman trophy along with Yeagley and the Virginia Cavaliers' Mike Fisher, Maisonneuve was elated to hear the news of his award. "It's a very big honor," Maisonneuve said. "When I

heard my name called ... it's hard to put into words. Any three of us could have won it." Known for being a softspoken leader, Maisonneuve remained his humble self upon accepting the prestigious award. "He was walking through the lobby with [the trophy] covered up in his coat," Yeagley said. "But as modest as he is, I know he's very happy." Junior Tim Hardy, forward and a teammate of Maisonncuve's since childhood, said playing with Maisonneuve has been a pleasure. "I've played with him since I was 10 years old," Hardy said. "I've seen him come up. He made it easy for the rest of us." But Maisonneuve insisted it was the other way around. "I want to tell all my teammates that this trophy should have went to everybody," Maisonneuve said. "They deserve it as much as if not more than I do. Even though it's an individual award, it's really a team award. They helped out a lot."

Coming off a 12-6 record in its first season of existence, expectations were high for the women's soccer team. The players, as well as IU coach Joe Kelley, expected much improvement during their second season. Things did not go as well as the team planned. After getting off to a 5-0 start, the team stumbled a bit, losing 10 games to close out the season 8-10 overall and 3-4 in the Big Ten. "Our record was not a good indication of how well we played this year," Kelley said. "We played a much tougher schedule, and even though we started 5-0, I was not reall y pleased with the way we were playing. I felt we played better later in the year, even though our record didn't show it." "We lacked a lot of consistency — both individually and as a team," sophomore Wendy Dillinger said. "Last year, we won our last nine games, and it was a real team effort. This year, I felt we lacked that team effort at times." Dillinger did not seem to be inconsistent, though, leading the team in scoring with 27 points on the year. She scored 11 goals (worth two points each when tabulating scoring) and also chipped in five assists, gaining a spot on the first annual All-Big Ten team. "Wend y has a great work ethic. She knows she can get better, and she will get better. That's the kind of attitude we like here," Kelley said. Dillinger and freshman Kris Fosdick said they knew

opponents at the end of the season would be much harder than those at the beginning. "We knew it would be harder because the teams were a lot tougher and they were ranked," Fosdick said. "It's really frustrating that we didn't win more because we out-played just about even, team." Dillinger said the team felt that "games like Notre Dame, Michigan State and Wisconsin would be tough." She added, "But other games, we just really felt we should win. It's frustrating when you dominate the whole game and you don't win." In fact, the Hoosiers did dominate most of the games this season. Most games came down to who could put the ball in the net first, and scoring was one thing the team lacked. The Hoosiers lost to Notre Dame 5-0, and to Michigan State 6-2, but those scores did not seem to indicate how the team played, according to Kelley. When looking at the game tapes after those defeats, Kelley said he found that the team had in fact controlled most of the game, only to have two or three momentary lapses on defense cost them. "We created opportunities to score," Kelley said. "But what we needed to do was finish off the opportunities by putting the ball in the net, which we didn't do very well," he said. "We lacked the experience and composure to put the extra touch on the ball to get a better shot."

won," Fosdick said. "But in the tournament, the teams didn't write us off because they knew who our good players were and that our players could hurt them if they didn't play their best." It was the first ever Big Ten Tournament for women's soccer, and it was exciting for the players, coaches and fans involved with it. "It was a great experience

for us. I don't think the team realized how big a deal it was," Coach Kelley said. "Before the game, it was the first time in two years that they had that look in their eyes, like 'Hey, we're here to play.' It was neat." The players agreed with Kelley about the impact of the tournament. "There was a sense of history, definitely," Fosdick said.

"This was a great foundation for women's soccer in the Big Ten," Dillinger said. Next year the team will return 10 starters (all to be sophomores or juniors). With another year of seasoning and gaining confidence, the team expects to be in the thick of things when the Big Ten and NCAA tournaments roll around next season. in

alex smith On Saturday afternoons this fall, one could usually find the football handed off to a player wearing No. 23. He moved the ball through even the smallest of holes left by his offensive line, often nearing or finding the end zone at the end of the run. But it hasn't always been as easy as redshirt freshman Alex Smith made it look. The career of IU's most honored freshman and the United Press International freshman pla yer of the year began 15 years ago when he put on a helmet and pads fbr the first time. Back then, the records Smith set didn't seem possible. "The first year I didn't get to play, and I really didn't enjoy it that much. As a matter of fact, I wanted to quit my first year and my parents wouldn't let me. They made me finish," Smith said with a slight hint of a southern accent. The next year Smith returned to football and for the first time did what he would spend much of the next 15 years doing, scoring touchdowns. "I scored my first touchdown when I was 6 years old," Smith said smiling as he recalled his first touchdown. "It was kind of an accident type of thing, I think. I don't think I was supposed to get the ball, but I did and I scored." Smith took his playing to another level when at Franklin County High School, he ran for 6,895 yards his senior year to break the Indiana record held by his IU teammate, Brett Law, and as a senior, Smith was the state's first "Mr. Football." Smith chose IU as the next step in his football career, but sat out his first season as a redshirt. The t011owing year he immediately became the starting tailback. He led the team with 10 touchdowns and rushed for a Big Ten freshman record of 1,475 yards. "Alex Smith is a heck of a player. He's got great vision and instinct, got that extra eyeball," Miami coach Randy Walker said. Many of Smith's record yards came from handoffs from senior quarterback John Paci. "[Smith] does a very good job for us. He's definitely the starter, and he showed that all year long. He's very consistent with his running, and I think that's brought him above the other guys," Paci said. Not only did Smith excel among his teammates, but he outshined his opponents. He finished sixth in the nation for rushing

yards and had the third best first-year performance of all-time behind Herschel Walker and Tony Dorsett. He was also named the ESPN College Football Newcomer of the Year. Smith was the second leading rusher in the Big Ten, behind Heisman Trophy runner-up Ki-Jana Carter of Penn State. Finishing so close in the conference to a top Heisman Trophy candidate has put thoughts of a Hoosier winning the Heisman into many people's minds, including Mallory's. "I think that he's got, hopefully, Heisman possibilities. I look at Alex having excellent potential as long as he'll take his play to the next level each year," Mallory said. Smith had not put himself as a candidate yet. "Well, you know, that's a big time award, and I really don't want to think about that at all. I think about what I need to do to get better, and I know that's a real prestigious award. I just try to go out there and do the best I can everyday, and if I do that, things will take care of itself," he said, after thinking for a minute. Despite all of Smith's honors, he was able to walk into a classroom, letter jacket and all, virtually unnoticed, even though Ile was one of the leading rushers in the nation, "I don't know if they do, or not (recognize me]. I just look at myself as real average looking type of guy," he said. Students might not recognize Smith, but the media did. The media attention did not bother him, in fact he enjoyed it. "I like to have that attention, and I think anybody would. It's hard when you're not doing well sometimes, and you get all the why questions, but you just got to take it in stride. There are going to be good days and bad days," Smith said. One thing was for sure, if Smith continued his career as well as, or better than, his rookie season, lie would definitely get the attention, from the media and eventually the students as well. And all of that attention would have stemmed from one small mistake made when lie was 6 years old, the ball being thrown to him for his first touchdown, beginning his football career. El

A scene in Madison, Wisc., said it all. As the final seconds ticked off the clock, senior John Paci stood on the sideline with his helmet resting on top of his head, face mask toward the sky. With a look Of disappointment on his face, he had his back turned as his team fbught a losing battle against Wisconsin. Disappointment. Both the team and the fans seemed to experience much of this during the season. After playing in the Independence Bowl the year beliire and winning three straight games prior to the 6213 mauling in Wisconsin, the season was looking good for the Hoosiers. But things started to fall apart from there. Prior to the season, expectations were high for the team. With two highly touted quarterbacks, Paci and rcdshirt

sophomore Chris Dittoe; a high school All-American, freshman Bo Barzilauskas; and the unveiling of freshman tailback Alex Smith in spring football practice, it looked as if there might be another bowl game in the future. The quest for a return bid to a postseason bowl began with big wins over two Ohio teams, Cincinnati and Miami at Memorial Stadium. The team opened the season by hosting Cincinnati. The Hoosiers won easily, 28-3. Smith made his debut in the cream and crimson uniform by rushing for 152 yards and two touchdowns. Smith became the first Hoosier freshman to start the season since 1945. IU then defeated Miami (Ohio), 35-14. One of the big touchdowns during the game didn't even come from the offense. With 3:41 remaining in the game, senior Alfonzo Thurman, intercepted the ball at the IU 3yard line. The linebacker ran 97 yards for a touchdown. It would be the Hoosiers' final touchdown of the game. "I told him when I came off the sideline, '1 hit that guy pretty good for you. And I saw you starting to chuck down the sideline, and I didn't see any white jerseys with you,'" senior Troy Drake said. "So, I knew he had the steam to get down there. continued Sant Riche

tell you what, we got to the end zone and we about both tell over, everyone was so tired." With a record of 2-0 and a No. 25 ranking in the USA/CNN Coaches poll, the team made a trip to rival Kentucky to defend the Bourbon Barrel. IU quickly quieted the crowd of 57,825 fans on the first possession of the game when Kentucky was forced to punt on fourth-andsix. The punt was blocked by IU junior Tate Harbottle and recovered by sophomore free safety Craig Goode at Kentucky's 22 yard line. "[Starting out quick] took that crowd out of the game," Paci said. "If vou take the crowd out of the game it makes the third and fourth quarter a lot easier. This place gets rowdy. Especiall y if they get, 'Another first down Kentucky' [as the announcer would yell every time Kentucky got a first down]. I mean, that gets the fans going. Say what you want, that gets annoying." The offense scored very quickly after the blocked punt — 26 seconds to be exact. Smith was able to run 22 yards in two possessions to score a touchdown and gain the lead, where they would remain for the rest of the game as they won 59-29. Along with the win, the Hoosiers were able to set many records against the Wildcats. Manolopoulos' eight extra points was a school record, passing the mark of seven set by many in the past, including current Miami Dolphin Pete Stoyanovich. Other records set were: rushing first downs (30), total number of first downs (35), total yards offense (650), most ever points on the road (59) and the sixth-highest point total ever by an IU team (59). With a 3-0 pre-Big Ten record and a handful of new records in the books, the Hoosiers took their perfect record to meet Wisconsin. Things looked had even before the Hoosiers arrived in Wisconsin. Because of plane

problems, the team was forced to wait at the Indianapolis Airport until a suitable replacement airplane could be found. The players ran through plays in the airport hanger and did not arrive at their hotel until late in the evening. It was obvious that it was going to be a long game for the tired Hoosiers from the start. IU could not get an ything started in the first three quarters as they were held scoreless. Finally, in the fourth quarter they scored two touchdowns. IU struggled both offensively and defensively with onl y one first down in the first half and allowing 632 yards by the Wisconsin offense. "There's not a whole lot I can say — it was a good rump-

thumping. There's not much positive to talk about," Mallory said after the 62-13 loss. I U tried to make up for the loss on the road when Minnesota came to IU.

The Hoosiers came Out on top, 27-20, handing the Hawkeyes a Homecoming loss. It was the Hoosiers first victory at Iowa since the 1979 season. Redshirt freshman Ben Klusmever, a tight end, put the Hoosiers on the scoreboard first with a touchdown on Ill's first possession. Smith and Paci each scored touchdowns, and Manolopoulos scored two field goals for the Hoosiers. Paci's touchdown came after a field goal fake as senior quarterback Chad Scott, a walkon, ran the ball for five yards and the first down. Smith's touchdown was onl y five yards of his total 232, a new Big Ten freshman rushing record. "He has extremely good balance and good vision," said

Iowa coach Hayden Fry, who saw Smith amass the most carries of any Iowa opponent ever. "He's a very gifted runner." After the Iowa game, the Hoosiers took a week off and held onto their No. 24 ranking in the USA Today/CNN Coaches poll as they prepared to take on Northwestern for Homecoming. Players and fans alike left the stadium disappointed after the Hoosiers lost to the Wildcats, 20-7. A trip to East Lansing, Mich., handed the Hoosiers their second consecutive loss. Michigan State was able to come back from a 14-10 halftime deficit to beat IU, 27-21. Senior cornerback Eric Smedley intercepted the ball and ran 47 yards for a touchdown against the Spartans. It was the team's third interception returned for a touchdown during the season. After two straight losses, the Hoosiers returned to Memorial

Stadium, hoping their home field would be good to them as they hosted the No. 1 Penn State Nittany Lions. The Hoosiers went to the locker room at halftime losing, 17-7. A slow third quarter in which Penn State scored only a field goal while holding the Hoosiers scoreless benefitted IU as they began a run to bring them within six points when the clock ran out to end the game. Dittoe hit senior wide receiver Eddie Baety with a pass for a touchdown to bring the score to 35-21 with 1:49 left in the game. Then, with the clock reading :00, Dittoe threw a Hail Mary pass that was juggled around in the end zone bet-6re landing in the arms of Dorian Wilkerson for a touchdown to bring the score to 35-27. With the crowd on its feet, Dittoe hit Ajamu Stoner for two points to bring the final score to 35-29. continued

state rival Purdue and also to defend the Oaken Bucket. In typical Bucket game form, the Hoosiers and Boilermakers traded touchdowns in a close game.

I took the Bucket over to Al [Thurman] and we held it up to our fans. I can't say what it means to have the Bucket," Drake said. Along with the victory, a few Hoosiers were able to set records against Purdue. Smith

set a Big Ten rushing record for freshmen with 1,475 yards for the season. Coach Bill Mallory tied Bo McMillen, who coached from 1934-1947, with the most wins as an IU coach (63). Emotions were high in the locker room after the game as the captains held the Bucket, with its trail of I's and P's marking the winner of the game. The team belted out the IU fight song after the victory. "I'm so happy right now," Thurman, who was named the

team's MVP, said. "I can't explain it. For the team this is great." With the return of the Oaken Bucket and the Bourbon Barrel back to Bloomington and new records in the books, the Hoosiers finished the season with some success. But a 6-5 record, which kept the team from a bowl game, contributed to a disappointing season for the football team and its fans. Ei

Most teams do not count a season as successful unless they finish with a winning record. But the volle yball team saw things differentl y . While its 1616 record might not have gotten it an NCAA bid, it finished at the .500 mark for the first time since 1990. The Hoosiers started the season strong with an 8-3 preBig Ten record. During this stretch, the Hoosiers picked up three straight victories in the Hoosier Classic at Assembly Hall. The wins gave the Hoosiers the tournament chmpionship, the first under the coaching of Katie Weismiller. "We've been in quite a few tournaments, and this is the first time to take home the prize. I think this year we are a much better team ... winning at home, having eight wins early in the season is a big plus and a big confidence step for us," Weismiller said following the Hoosier's victory, 16-14, 7-15, 15-7, 7-15, 15-10 over Loyola in the Hoosier Classic. With momentum building, the Hoosiers opened the Big Ten season the following weekend against two nationally ranked teams. First the y played Penn State that was then ranked No. 2 in the nation. The next night they took on the No. 6 ranked team, Ohio State. Although the Hoosiers lost to Penn State in four close games, they fbllowed up with a victory over eventual Big Ten conference winner, Ohio State in a five game nail biter, 16-14, 8-15, 15-10, 13-15, 16-14. The successful outing against two highly ranked teams

gave the Hoosiers perhaps the biggest emotional boost of the season. Even though the Hoosiers defeated a ranked team and lost a close match to another top team, they were not among the teams in the polls the next week. "I don't think ranking means anything for a team like us who doesn't have a ranking. We played with the best of them this weekend, and I don't think we need to be ranked. I think we are good right where we are," senior Anne Eastman said. Senior Lynn Crawley turned in an amazing performance for the weekend of Sept. 23-24 with 24 kills and 22 digs in the game against Penn State and 26 kills and 18 digs against Ohio State. That performance earned her Big Ten Player of the Week honors for the week of Sept. 26. "We always say that one player doesn't get player of the week, the whole team does. Lynn did an outstanding job. Against Ohio State in crunch time she was on, and she was really excited," Weismiller said. Unfortunately for the team, the rest of the season had its peaks and valleys. Consistency was not one of the team's strong points and it once again faced trouble with road games, going 8-11 on the road. One of the highlights included defeating Purdue both at home and on the road to capture hold of the coveted Moron Spike, which is equivalent to the football team's Oaken Bucket, fbr the third straight year. The strength of the intrastate rivalry was present when the Hoosiers took on the

Boilers in Assembly Hall early in the season. In front of a boisterous crowd of almost 2,000 people, the team won in three straight games. "It really helped with playing, hearing people cheering for you ... with the larger crowd you can really hear a lot more," junior Stacie Murr said. Eastman summed it up simply. "It's sweet to beat [Purdue] at home," she said. Following the victory over Purdue, the Hoosiers were able to defeat Michigan, 15-13, 158, 15-13 at home. The Hoosiers then went on to lose three straight games, placing them eighth in the Big Ten and

Hughes reaches NCAA Championship meet as rest of team ends season

NOT FAR BEHIND BY JENNIFER BEMS

Kevin Stuart Pack running is taken advantage of by members of the IU men's cross country team. Senior Jeff Tetric k, sophomore Kevin Sullivan and junior Matt Sparks run close together in the Indiana Intercollegiates Meet Oct. 14 at the IU cross country course. The Hoosiers won the Big State team title.

With the Marching Hundred practicing in the background, the men's cross country team braved the heat to run its first race in uniform Sept. 9 at the IU golf course. The race gave the coaches an idea of where the runners stood after summer training. The team got an idea of whom would he the top runners as senior Darrell Hughes won the race and junior Keith Ikard was second, the way it would be for much of the season. With three of the previous year's top runners returning in Hughes, Ikard and junior Matt Sparks, the team set goals of running as a team in the NCAA Championships and of winning a Big Ten title. While neither of these goals were reached, the team placed in the top six in every meet it ran. With a slight drizzle and a muddy course, the team ran its first meet against other teams Sept. 17 as it competed in the Tennessee Invitational. The team finished third. Ikard placed fourth while Hughes and Sparks placed in the top 10. "Everyone placed where they've been placing in practice, [but] the whole group could have placed a little higher," Sparks said. Sept. 24, IU traveled to West Lafayette for the PreDistrict IV meet. IU won the team title. Ikard won with a time of 25:13. Hughes was also clocked at 25:13 but was credited with second place. IU returned home for the next two meets. Amid the brightly colored trees, the Hoosiers hosted its own

invitational Oct. 8. IU finished second with Hughes leading the team with a third place finish. Hughes placed second and Ikard third Oct. 14 at the Indiana Intercollegiate meet as the Hoosiers won the Big State title. After two strong meet performances, IU competed in the Big Ten Championships, finishing fifth. Hopes were high going into the NCAA District IV Cross Country Championships Nov. 14 in West Lafayette. Having already won a meet on the course, IU hoped to place high enough to advance to the NCAA Championships. But, their hopes fell short as the team finished sixth. Hughes was the No. 1 IU runner for the fourth straight meet, placing 12th. "Darrell [Hughes] and the rest of the kids ran as well as they can," IU men's coach Sam Bell said after the meet. The meet brought the end of the season for everyone but Hughes. With his 12th place finish, he earned a bid to the NCAA Championships. "It has been a goal of mine for the whole season," Hughes said prior to the meet. "I am looking forward to running with the nation's best runners." Hughes became the 90th best men's cross country runner in the nation Nov. 21. Although it wasn't a team etlbrt, one individual did make it to the NCAA Championships, fulfilling at least part of the team's goal at the beginning of the season. That, along with the two team titles, gave the team something to be satisfied with as it concluded the season. in

It just didn't work out," senior Maureen Ryan said. Experience headed up the team with six returning runners, including the past season's No. 1 runner, junior Nikki Suever. "I thought we had decent depth in there, but we didn't have the front runners [to back up Suever]," Coach Roseann Wilson said. Suever continued to lead the team in every meet for the second straight year, but she was not as successful as the year before. She was All-Big Ten as a sophomore but was unable to repeat the honor as a junior. "Nikki had a good summer training I on her own at home], but she came in behind where she was last tall," Wilson said. Suever, a walk-on as a freshman, started out the season strong, winning the Hoosier Hills Open for the second straight year with a time of 14:42. Following the race, Wilson was happy with the team's performance. "I was pretty encouraged. They didn't reall y go out and pound out the first K [kilometer], but we ran pretty well as a pack," she said. The race was primarily to give the women an opportunity

to compete in uniform without worrying about the team score. IU was the only team, and the coaches used the meet to help determine traveling squads. Even though the competition was lacking, there was only a one minute and 16 second time spread between Suever, the No. 1 runner on the team, and senior India Ford, the No. 5 runner. "I think that [the race] just got the jitters out. Everybody was pretty nervous. It was just a starting spot," Suever said. For the first competition the team traveled south for the Tennessee Invitational. Despite a muddy course, the team finished second, 17 points behind Invitational champion, West Virginia. "The course was really muddy from the rain [although] it wasn't raining really hard when we raced. But everyone had the same conditions to run in," junior Kara Deal said. The top five IU women all finished in the top 20 overall. They were led by Suever who was fifth overall. Sophomore Jill Nace, Deal, freshman Liz Kouba and Ford all placed fbr IU, but this would be one of the last times the entire team would run at the same time. Injuries plagued the team soon after the first meet. Ford suffered from leg injuries early in the season, and Nace fell and hurt her knee after running second for the team in the first three meets. Nace was able to run in the next meet, the Indiana Invitational, but she never reached the level of competition she had been at prior to the injury. In fact, she

was one of seven team members who did not run in the NCAA District IV meet, the last meet of the year. Sucvcr along with Ryan and freshman Liz Kouba were the only women to compete in the District IV meet held Nov. 12 at Purdue. Prior to the meet, Wilson made a decision not to take a full team. "We decided to take not only the people that were 100 percent healthy, but those who were ready to make improvements on the season. The others were struggling physically and/or mentally, and not having a positive experience [at Districts] would have done nothing to help the rest of the year," Wilson said.

For those who did compete, the meet was beneficial. All three Ili runners placed in the top half of the 200-plus field with Suever leading the runners at 43. Kouba finished 87 and Ryan was 104. All three ran their season best times. "I wish we could have had the whole team there, but it wasn't hard [without the entire WOMEN'S CROSS COUNTRY Place

Except for Districts, the women never ran well consistently as a team. "Some people ran well one meet and others ran well another. We never ran together as a team," Wilson said. The fact that the team never ran well together at meets was evident not only to Wilson but also to the runners. "I am disappointed. I thought we had a lot of potential for this year. We were never running well at the same time," Suever said. El

kris mcgrade When Kris McGrade began practicing with the women's soccer team, it had been five years since she stepped into a pair of cleats. Which was no easy task considering she spent the last four years wearing high tops as the starting point guard fbr the basketball team. But it wasn't perfecting her ball-handling skills that bothered her about the transition. And it wasn't adjusting to a position she never played before. "It was the shoes," McGrade said, petting her basset hound, Quincy, who sat next to her on the couch in her apartment. The shoes? "Everything they wear in soccer is small — the shorts, the shoes. I mean, in basketball, you wear your shorts down to here, you know," McGrade placed her hands just right above her knees. "And in basketball, I like to wear my shoes big. The girls on the [soccer] team saw that I wore my cleats big, and they told me I would have to wear my shoes small. I'd jump down a size, and they kept telling me, `Uh-uh, smaller.' You wear them small so you can get a good touch on the ball." After the soccer season was over, reminders of McGrade's experiences as a soccer player lingered. "I was in Assembly Hall, and I was practicing with the [basketball] team. I was wearing shorts, and I saw some soccer players. I looked at them and said, `See? Now this is how you wear shorts.'" McGrade tugged on an imaginary pair of shorts. The idea of McGrade playing soccer started out as a mere joke. While McGrade underwent rehabilitation for her knee during her junior year, trainers John Schrader and Wendy Poppy would kid around with McGrade, saying that when she's done with basketball, she could join the women's varsity soccer team during her fifth year of athletic eligibility. They were aware that McGrade pla y ed soccer in high school and that she would be a fifth-year senior. Women's soccer coach Joe Kelley caught on to the joking as well, but the thought of McGrade in a soccer uniform wasn't taken so lightly. McGrade began practicing with the team a week after she completed her final basketball season. Eventually, Kelley named

McGrade co-captain, along with senior Brooke Breer. "We knew that she was capable of playing a collegiate sport at a very competitive level," Kelley said. "Through her words and actions she showed the team, which was mostly sophomores and freshmen, what it takes to compete at a high level." Her competitive drive on the court carried over to the soccer field. During her four years as a basketball player, the team never had a losing season. During her senior year, she led the basketball team to its first NCAA tournament appearance since 1983. Her physical, scrappy style of play McGrade had been known for in her days at Assembly Hall showed through as a soccer player. But out on the field, McGrade didn't have to worry about whistles being blown in her face because of her aggressiveness, although at times, she forgot. "She would be out on the soccer field, and she would hit somebody and automatically raise her hand. We'd tell her, `No, no, that's not a foul in this game,'" Kelley said. "It took me so long to adjust," McGrade said, smiling. "We were practicing outside in 90 degree weather, and I wanted airconditioned Assembly Hall." The weather was only a small part of the adjustment. In high school, she played forward. Kelley wanted her to play on defense, which required her to learn a new position and to develop her ball-handling skills. "The team was very patient with me. I didn't have much skill in high school," McGrade said. McGrade herself wasn't exactly sure how to explain her All-State soccer selection in high school. "I don't know," she said. "I ran hard and went after the ball. Back then, I just kind of ran people over." McGrade credited her family's support for all that she had accomplished. "My parents never said, 'Kris, you have to score all the points,' it was, 'Kris, this is what you have to do to make the team better,'" she said. And during her five years at IU, that was exactly what McGrade did, no matter what kind of team she played for. VI

Men's basketball team experienced numerous surprises, ups and downs

ROLLER COASTER SEASON BY JENNIFER BELLIS

"I LOVE ALAN HENDERSON, I LOVE [CALBERT] CHEANEY AND THE PLAYERS WE'VE HAD HERE, BUT PATRICK KNIGHT IS MY ALL-TIME FAVORITE INDIANA BASKETBALL PLAYER." COACH BOB KNIGHT

Sall] Riche Senior Alan Henderson fights for position with Michigan freshman Maceo Baston. Michigan defeated the Hoosiers, 65-52, ending the nation's longest home winning streak. Henderson was held to eight points and six rebounds in that contest.

242 Sports

Following the men's basketball team was much like a ride on an amusement park roller coaster — one never knew what to expect. The team was at a high with a win over then-No. 3 Kansas and with a 110-79 win against Iowa to close the season. But the highs were sometimes forgotten during the low times. IU lost to Utah, 77-72, and Tulane, 86-68, to open the season in the Maui Classic. The season also brought the end of the nation's longest home winning streak. But the play of senior Alan Henderson was a constant and often a high point for the sporadic team. The Hoosier cocaptain left numerous marks in the record books. Henderson ended his career as the fifth alltime scorer (1,979), the all-time rebounder (1,091) and the alltime shot blocked- (213). "I think we have struggled as a team, but I think Alan was a positive thing," senior Pat Knight said. "He gave us the rebounds and the points we needed. I think he has had an outstanding career." Not only did Henderson's teammates respect him, he also earned the respect of opposing coaches and players. "He keeps going like the Energizer," Purdue coach Gene Keady said. "You're always trying to find him. He's relentless." Henderson teamed up with junior Brian Evans to lead the team to a 80-61 victory over then No. 3 Kansas. After struggling in the games before the match up with the Jayhawks, the win brought energy to the team and fans. IU had not

beaten Kansas in the previous five meetings. "That was a little motivation factor for us, but we weren't focused on the past," said Henderson, who scored 22 points and pulled down 12 rebounds for the team. "We focused on preparing and getting better." Not only did the game give the team a much-needed victory, it also preserved the nation's longest winning streak at home. "The streak was an incentive for me," Kansas coach Roy Williams said. "I really thought we'd be the team to stop it. Maybe I'm stupid because we sure didn't do it." But the streak did come to an end when the Michigan Wolverines came Jan. 24 to Assembly Hall. Before the game, IU held the nation's longest home winning streak, 50 games. The shouts of triumph from the Michigan players were all that could be heard when the game ended. The Hoosier fans sat in a stunned silence as their team filed slowly off the court after losing the game, 65-52. It was the first loss in Assembly Hall since Feb. 21, 1991 when Iowa defeated IU, 80-79. "This is the first time since I've been the head coach at Michigan that I can honestly say I'm happy to be here," Michigan head coach Steve Fisher said. Coach Bob Knight had his own feelings about the end of the streak. "I doubt if we'll win again this century here," Coach Knight said in response to a question from a Michigan student reporter. "I would continued

ma{2-,ine that this is just so exploded our ability to I play at home that we may not win in the next six games here. If I remember, in the five years prior to our starting this streak, I don't think we won a home game." Although the streak ended and the team had other downfalls, no one sustained a seasonending injury. But freshman Neil Reed suffered from a dislocated shoulder during the season and did not always play. When Reed did play, he inspired those around him with his scrappy style of play. Television commentators, Billy Packer and Dick Vitale, and opposing coaches noted that although Reed was injured, he was the first to dive after a loose ball. "Neil Reed is a competitor," said Ohio State coach Randy Ayres. "I don't think I've ever seen a kid with that much heart as a freshman. I mean he played through pain and obviously was getting bumped around Tuesday night [against Michigan]." Along with the ups and downs, the Hoosier roller coaster went through a few dark tunnels when no one was

sure about what exactly was going on at that time. One of the first "tunnels" of the season came after the Nov. 29 game at Notre Dame when freshman Michael Hermon disappeared. Hermon skipped practice Thursday and Friday following the game with the Irish. No one knew of his whereabouts. "I have not seen Hermon since the Notre Dame game," Coach Knight said on his weekly television show. "I don't know if he's upset because he didn't play [much ] in the Notre Dame game. I don't know." Hermon returned to the game with 33.9 seconds left in the second half Dec. 12 against Miami [Ohio]. Like a long lost son, the fans welcomed Hermon back with open arms. With 12.2 seconds remaining in the game, Hermon hit a 3-pointer off a pass from Reed. The fans showed their approval, giving Hermon a standing ovation. Not onl y was the team on a roller coaster ride, individual players experienced their own rides. Evans, expected to be one of the team's leaders, started the season strong with 37 points in

He was named the Big Ten player of the Week for Dec. 12-18, leading the team with 29 points and 12 rebounds in the win over Kansas. But the season was not always exceptional for the forward. IU opened the Big Ten season Jan. 4 with a 74-55 loss to Iowa with no points from Evans. "We've got to get more out of Evans if he is going to play," Coach Knight said. A few pleasant surprises came during the season as well. Coach Knight extended an invitation to freshman Jean Paul, a redshirt wide receiver on the football team, to try out for the team. Paul made his first appearance against Eastern Kentucky. He scored five points in five minutes of play. When IU hosted Purdue Feb. 12, the game became somewhat of a coming-out party for freshman Charlie Miller, who awed the fans with his moves and most notably his dunking ability. It was not Miller's first game, but it was certainly his best as he exploded for a season-high 21 points of play to help lead the Hoosiers to an 82-73 victory. "He

made some tough shots and some excellent drives," Henderson said. "He sparked us a lot." The team finished on a high when Iowa came to visit. The team took charge of the game early with Evans leading the way. Having sat on the bench the entire second half of the first meeting, Evans hit three 3-point baskets in the first five minutes and scored 28 total points. "Brian was just on fire," Pat Knight said. "He wanted to pay those guys back." The Hawkeyes paid as the Hoosiers ran away with the game,

Both received standing ovations from the fans, but it was the final speech from Coach Knight that Hoosier fans will remember best. "I am extremely happy that Pat Knight decided to come here," Coach Knight said with a crack in his voice. "I love Alan Henderson, I love [Calbert] Cheaney and the players we've had here, but Patrick Knight is my all-time favorite Indiana player." With that statement, Coach Knight embraced his son in front of the sell-out crowd who applauded their approval. It was something new for Pat, who had been booed on many occasions in Assembly Hall. "I guess my critics have gone on spring break," Pat Knight said during his speech. His critics were gone on spring break, and the team would soon head for a trip of their own. With the victory over Iowa, the team was insured a bid to the NCAA tournament. The players packed their bags for Boise, Idaho, to play Missouri and to conclude the roller coaster ride of a season. in

How ironic it seemed. The IU men's basketball team out West again. The team began the season in Hawaii at the Maui Classic with a 77-72 loss to Utah. It ended the season in similar fashion in Boise, Idaho, as the ninth seed in NCAA tournament's West Regional. The Hoosiers fell to 18th-ranked and eight-seeded Missouri, 65-60, in the first round of the NCAA tournament. After taking a 31-26 lead at halftime — I U owned a four–point lead at the half of its season opener the Hoosiers went flat as the Tigers charged ahead during the second half. IU finished the season 19-12 overall with a 11-7 record in the Big Ten conference, good for third place. The loss marked the fourth first–round exit in the past 10 years for the Hoosiers. The other six trips went to the Sweet 16 or further. "We didn't execute anywhere close to what we should have," junior Brian Evans said. Perhaps even more ironic were two of the heroes – Missouri coach Norm Stewart and Missouri guard Paul O'Liney. On St. Patrick's Day (March 19), the pair, both of Irish descent, took center stage. O'Liney scored a team-high 22 points and grabbed four steals to lead Missouri on the

second-half surge to victory. The resulting win gave Stewart career victory No. 660, breaking a tie at 659 between him and his friend, coach Bob Knight in the first meeting between the two. "Coach [Stewart] is always into the game," Missouri forward Derek Grimm said. "We got fired up and played with some emotion." Stewart said, "We knew if we got some good shots, we'd have a chance." Evans led the Hoosiers with a game-high 24 points, 19 during the first half. Senior Alan Henderson pulled off his 49th career "double-double" — best ever during the Knight era — as he scored 18 points and grabbed 10 rebounds, tops for the game. No other Hoosier scored in double figures, although sophomore Steve Hart and freshman Neil Reed each registered eight points. "The really important parts, when you have got to be really enthusiastic, [Missouri] took it to us," Knight said. IU built an early 14-3 lead, pushing the tempo and benefitting from some early Missouri defensive lapses. Yet the Tigers rallied back as the Hoosiers spent nearly three minutes without a field goal. "When things start going wrong for us, it's usually on the offensive end of the floor," Knight said. "We had some cheap points. Our 14-3 lead wasn't something we had to work for." Evans said, "It was more or less us in conversion and them not picking us up. It wasn't so continued

uch what we're doing as what they weren't doing." The team came out cold after halftime. They scored just one field goal, a Henderson dunk off a feed from freshman Michael Hermon, during the initial six minutes of the half. Meanwhile, Missouri steadied itself, building a 38-35 advantage over IU. The Hoosiers fought hack as Reed hit a pair of 3-pointers, while Henderson scored on a dunk and a jumper. With 7:09 remaining, Missouri led, 52-51.

"The game ended up the way I though it would — not that I expected to get beat — but it went right down to the end," Knight said. Missouri built up a 61-57 lead with 2:17 left. But then Evans hit his fourth 3-pointer of the night, making the score 6160 with 1:16 remaining. Only the stage didn't set. Instead, Missouri played even more aggressively.

With 10 seconds remaining in the game, the 7,815 Ohio State fans came to their feet at St. John Arena as the Buckeyes led the game by one point, 7069, with the Hoosiers in possession of the ball. The ball was thrown to junior Lisa Furlin with less than two seconds remaining in the game. Furlin eyed the basket and in desperation threw the ball in-what more closely resembled a heave than a shot. The 22-foot "shot" was perfect, giving the Hoosiers a 72-70 victory over Ohio State, the first victory at Ohio State for the team in more than 21 years. The team came back from a 16 point deficit in the second half to win the game. "It was really a great effort from my team," Coach Jim Izard said after the Ohio State game. "I felt that from the opening tap to the final shot that we shot to win the basketball game, and they didn't quit. When you don't quit in a close game like this, you give yourself a chance to win." The Ohio State game was not unique to the season. The team had 12 games that went down to the wire. All 12 were decided by six points or less, including seven games that were determined by a three-point

margin in the end. The season also came down to the wire. The team started the season strong, winning the first 10 games for the third straight year. But it did not go as well when the Big Ten season approached. During that time the team went 9-9. Right until the end it was unsure as to whether or not the team would be playing in the NCAA tournament. But the team won four of its last five games, including a top four finish in the Big Ten tournament, to ensure a bid to the NCAA tournament. Izard changed the starting line-up 12 times, in an attempt to get his team going. He finally settled on the line-up consisting of seniors Shirley Bryant and Emma Urzua, Furlin, sophomore Tatjana Vesel and freshman Stephanie Gray. Bryant and Urzua were in all 12 starting line-ups; their statistics proved wh y Izard chose to start the two seniors in every game of the season. Urzua finished her career as the all-time assist leader. During that time, Urzua, a native of Mexico, started all 84 games of her career. Through her leadership and work ethic, Urzua left a lasting impression on her teammates. "She taught me that if you work hard anything is possible," freshman Quacy Barnes said. "She is the team leader, and we'll miss that." Bryant completed her career as one of the best in the Hoosier record books. During her time wearing the cream and crimson

"It's good to have Lisa back, that's for sure," Izard said following the 74-71 loss to then No. 11 Penn State. "I thought she was a really positive aspect to the game." Furlin would continue to be a positive aspect in many of the games during the remainder of the season. In fact, in four of the last six contests, Furlin hit the last shot to send the game into

overtime or to win the game. "I like the ball in my hands," Furlin said. "I want the pressure." In one of the pressure situations, Furlin hit a game winning shot with six seconds remaining in the game, to give IU a 77-75 victory over Northwestern March 5 in the first round of the Big Ten tournament. It was the first Big Ten tournament since the initial tournament in 1982. IU was the No. 5 seed, based on final season standings, and received a bye in the first round.

The victory over Northwestern put the team in the semi-finals against Penn State. The then-No. 9 Nittany Lions ran away with the first half, taking a 49-26 lead into the locker room. After falling behind by as many as 23 points in the second half, IU reeled off a 12-0 run to close out the game. Senior Karen Redenbaugh hit two consecutive 3-pointers from the right corner to finish the run as IU lost to the Big Ten champion, 72-64. "I thought that basically the

game itself was decided very, very early because of our inability to stop their transition part of the game," Izard said. "I thought they did just an excellent job of running the floor, getting the ball to people, spreading us out and getting easy points in transition." The Penn State game concluded the regular season for the team. The team finished the season 19-9 and the No. 5 team in the Big Ten, which was good enough to be invited to the NCAA tournament for the second consecutive year. El

With 2:26 remaining in the NCAA first round game, junior Lisa Furlin looked at the ceiling in the Georgia Coliseum and said, "Thank you." She then pointed toward the Georgia bench and said, "She's gone." The situation she was referring to was the fifth personal ti ml committed by Georgia's La'Keshia Frett. In most cases, the loss of the second leading scorer on a team would give the opposition an advantage. But in this game it

gave the Hoosiers (19-9) no huge advantage, just a feeling of relief. The relief was that the Lady Bulldogs second-half damage, led by Frett's eight second half points, was about to come to an end. Frett was a major factor in the No. 14 seed Hoosier's elimination from the NCAA tournament, the team's second straight tournament appearance in 10 years, as the No. 3 seed Georgia Lady Bulldogs defeated IU, 81-64.

fter a strong run in the first half, IU was down by A two points at halftime to the No. 12 team in the nation, 44-42. IU saw the Georgia halftime lead increase quickly as they went on a 18-3 run in the second half to take the lead, 62-45. The Lady Bulldogs never looked back, riding its momentum to a 17-point win. "We wanted a close game after the first half, and we were able to do that," IU coach Jim Izard said. "Georgia was able to win by wearing us down." IU was forced to play without one of its key players. Sophomore Tatjana Vesel injured her left knee in practice at the Georgia Coliseum the day before the game. A starter before the injury, Vesel was replaced in the line-up by freshman Jaime Garner. At the beginning of the game, it appeared the Hoosiers were fine without Vesel. At the 16:42 mark in the first half, Furlin hit a layup and was fouled by Georgia junior Saudia Roundtree. The free throw was good, as IU took its first lead of the game, 9-6. Georgia would tie the game

before the Hoosiers went on a 2213 run to take its biggest lead of the game, 35-25. The Lady Bulldogs would see nothing of an IU lead as Georgia immediately stormed back from the deficit. The Lady Bulldogs tied the game with 4:14 remaining in the half, one of five ties in the first half. Georgia's Rachel Powell hit a 3-pointer to give her team the halftime lead, 44-42. "I am just very, very pleased with the effort that we put forth for basically the first 19 and a half minutes of the first half," said Izard, who was content with his team's performance against a team that eventually advanced to the Final Four. "I thought we played extremely well. I thought we did some things to take them out of their rhythm offensively. We got some good shots and kept things close at the half. "I think the difference in the basketball game, which was very obvious to the spectator, was their strength and their depth, which just wore us down. I thought they did an excellent job." In the second half, Georgia went on an 18-3 run to take a 6245 lead. IU attempted a comeback,

but was never able to get closer than 12 points, 66-54, following a 3-pointer by senior Karen Redenbaugh with 10:03 remaining in the game. "I think Georgia is a very good team," senior Shirley Bryant said. "They came out and played really aggressive, and we tried to play aggressive with them, but they were just more aggressive than we were." The Lady Bulldogs' starters scored all but seven of Georgia's points in the game, including 33 points in the second half. Georgia's starters outscored IU's starters, 7455. "I really thought that our starters played well," said Georgia coach Andy Lathers, who felt that his team got a hard draw when it was matched up against IU. "Each and every one of them, I thought, stepped up and made big plays on both ends of the floor. "Well, Indiana was, as I thought they would be, a very, very good team. Much like the teams in the Southeastern Conference that we're accustomed to playing, they play hard, are aggressive and have some quality players," Lathers said. El

IU Media Relations Department did all the behind the scenes work that was used by many, but recognized by few By Michelle Cook

Tiffany Segal Following a men's basketball game, Coach Bob Knight discusses the game in the press conference. Press conferences were one of the numerous things that the Media Relations Department did. Along with holding press conferences, the department created media guides and issued press passes.

fter an athletic event, the average citizen could open the newspaper or turn on the television to see the results of the contest. This information did not just appear at the station, and it usually was not gathered by the station workers. It was put together for the media by the Sports Information Department. The department's main job was to be responsible for all the publicity of the IU sports teams and to act as a liaison between the teams, media and public. The department also disseminated information to the fans, the media, opposing teams, the Big Ten Conference and the NCAA, Associate Media Relations Director Shelly Stewart said. Media Relations Director Kit Klinglehoffer, Assistant Media Relation Directors Greg Elkin, John Decker and Stewart along with five undergraduate students and one graduate student comprised the office. Everything from phone calls asking about trivial matters to setting up interviews with players, to creating programs and media guides was handled by this group. Even after the sports' seasons were complete, they worked and looked ahead to the next season. "There are not many days where there isn't an event or something I have to get ready for," Decker said. Each person who worked in the office was responsible for certain sports. Each week during the season, a press release was written to preview the upcoming week for each team. These were released to the media and upcoming opponents. "The sports information department is extremely important," said senior David Kesmodel, a writer for the Bloomington Herald-Times. "Mainly as a central link

etween the media and the athletes. It's hard to get to access to the athletes [without them]." Media guides were done through the department. The media guides were completed before the beginning of the season. Game programs were also done for every home event. Decker designed and laid out the media guides and programs. He said the office produced about 100-120 publications every year. They varied in size from a 160-page football media guide to a six-page program for women's tennis. Decker said the hardest part of creating the publications was the set-up. Once that was done, putting in the information and the stories was not that difficult or time consuming. Decker's favorite part of the job was getting back a media guide or publication from the printers and knowing that he did a good job on it. He said, "I actually have tangible things, books, that I can look at 10 years from now and actually have proof that I was here." Decker did not do all the writing that appeared in the guides and programs. Whichever student or director was responsible for that sport did the writing for the program. Most programs included a preview of the contest, team statistics, player biographies and coach biographies. Decker then took the word processing file and inserted it into the already laid out page. But Decker did not enjoy all aspects of his job. He said his least favorite part of the job was the long hours. In the fall, during football and soccer seasons, an average work week can exceed 70 hours a week. Even though the hours might be long, Decker said he couldn't complain much. "The thing I come back to is every day I enjoy coming to work," Decker said. "I work a lot of hours, but I enjoy what I do or sonic of the things I do." This included going to Davidson, S.C., for the Final Four Soccer Tournament and traveling to Florida with the baseball team. Junior Denise Church said during basketball season she and the other student workers worked about 50 hours a week. During other seasons, such as tennis, Church worked 30-35 hours a week. Besides traveling with the teams, producing media guides and game programs, the sports information department wrote and edited the Hoosier Scene Magazine for the Varsity Club and put out schedule cards for all the teams. The

department also acted as historians as well as information people. They were the information source to countless people who want to know all the trivial infOrmation about teams and coaches of the past. The office averaged about 30 phone calls an hour from people who wanted information about players, coaches, schedule, interviews or media passes. The office received 15-20 letters a day requesting items or wishing teams and pla yers good luck. "When you've been here long enough, it's really amazing some of the things people send and ask for," Decker said. "If you're here long enough, you'll pretty much see it all." Over the years the department has seen things ranging from a blanket of Bob Knight photos sent in by a lady as a gift for Knight to requests for pictures of the basketball team with their shirts off. All of the work done by the department is important to the teams and the athletic department. But perhaps the most vital time for the department is a game day. Before a game a lot of preparation occurred. Statistics and biographies of coaches and players had to be done. A weekly release and

game notes were done and sent to the opponents. IU also participated in the NCAA's Fax on Demand, which allowed the media to call up and get information about any participating school faxed to them. The information had to be updated frequently, because the athletic contests were held frequently and the statistics were constantly changing. Requests from the media for credentials also had to be handled before a game. Seating assignments and fulfilling requests were taken care of before the game. For a football game that was broadcast on television, upward of 100 media credentials were requested. The department granted 100 passes for the games. Decker said this is normal and the office has no problem handling it. For a men's basketball game, 25 television passes, 60 writer passes and 20 photographer passes were usually requested. Along with insuring media credentials, media relations also had to make sure the media got rosters, programs and any other infbrmation they needed. The day of the game itself was also a busy one. Press row was set up with credentials and seating assignments. If the game was on television or on radio, the sports information department helped them set up equipment and make sure everything was running smoothly. "Game day is almost the easiest because you've been preparing all week for the game," Stewart said. Statisticians had the opportunity to put their skills to work on game day. Some of the stats were kept manually, while others were done on a special computer program. "We're pretty lucky with our computerized system," Church said. "The system puts in the infbrmation and gives you the box score and play-by-play. When the system goes haywire, it's more of a pain to do by hand." At halftime all statistics were accumulated and checked. The statistics were then given to the television and radio announcers, reporters and the coaches. Also, the scores of other games were checked and relayed to both team's coaches and media members. At the conclusion of the game, the sports information director took interview requests from the members of the media. Final stats and play-by-play box scores were given to all members of the media, the opposing school, the coaches and the conference office. "The provided stats and play-by-play make it much easier to write stories," Kesmodel said. The sports information director then conducts the press conference. The media members must wait before the coaches and players are required to show because of a 10minute cool down period. Then one of the sports information directors brings the players or coaches into the press room for the press conference. At the conclusion of the press conference, the final box scores were sent to the wire services, national newspapers, Indiana newspapers, players' hometown newspapers, the Big Ten office and all Big Ten schools. Then preparation for the next day and game begins. No matter what, the members of the department are always working. "Even when I go home, I never leave the job," Church said.

The men's swimming and diving team came together as a group during the season to place tOurth in the Big Ten and finish the season ranked No. 17 in the nation based on the team's finish in the NCAA meet. The team not only swam its best, it also learned that it was able to compete with the top teams and swimmers. The men's swimming and diving team has won 23 Big Ten Championships. The first goal of the team was to perform its best, in an attempt to uphold the tradition of excellence set in the past. "I wanted everyone to get 100 percent best times during conference meets," senior Brian Barnes said. "And ever y body got lifetime bests." In order for the team to meet its goals, Coach Kris Kirchner implemented a training and meet schedule that would allow the athletes to reach their optimal potential. Freshman Rob Iglinski said that the training paid off against Kentucky and Florida. Kirchner agreed with Iglinski. "We had an opportunity to beat [Florida], but eve] were just not quite good enough at the time," Kirchner said. "[Florida was] a top 10 ranked team, and we were not ranked. We came close, but we didn't have enough." After a 9-5 overall record and a 3-4 Big Ten record, the team went into the Big Ten Championships with the hope of battling for second or third in the meet. Barnes said everyone swam hard, but it was just not enough to win. The team

finished fourth, in front of fifth place Ohio State, a team IU had never beat. "I have never seen so many guys hungry to win," Barnes said. "We all swam to win." With the fourth place finish, IU was able to send five swimmers to the NCAA Championship meet: Barnes, Iglinski, junior Sam Gasowski, and sophomores Greg Ruminski and Chris Plumb. The team finished 17th. Two of the swimmers and one relay team placed in the top 15 of their events. Barnes finished sixth in the 500-yard freestyle, 10th in the 400 individual medley and 13th in the 1650 freestyle. All three events Barnes participated in were won by Tom Dolan of Michigan. Dolan set American records in all three events. Iglinski was 14th in the 400 individual medley while the team's 800 freestyle relay finished 1 1 th. The meet brought to conclusion all that the swimmers had worked for during the season. Not only did the meet bring out top performances from the swimmers, it also taught them a lesson. "When I swam against the world record holder, I learned that I could be just as good as them," Ruminski said in reference to swimming against 1992 Ol y mpian Royce Sharp on several occasions. Ruminski learned that he could swim with the best, and the team proved it could compete with the top teams as it concluded the season as one of the top 20 teams in the nation.n

Compromised of all underclassmen, the women's swimming and diving team took a giant leap forward. All of the swimmers swam personal best times throughout the season, and junior Jennifer Dixon won the Big Ten Championship in 1 meter diving. Coach Nancy Nitardy said the key to the season was that the women came together as a team and started working and acting as a unit instead of a bunch of individuals. "[Swimming] is an individual sport, but when you come together and realize you arc doing it with other people and start supporting people

at Royer Pool. Because the meets were not

more and being more positive and enthusiastic, it really pays off," Nitardy said. "That is what happened this year as a team. Everyone was giving 11 0 percent, and it was very upbeat and positive." The final key in bringing the team together as a unit was when junior Beth Burke swam a school record in the 200-yard breaststroke against Penn State Jan. 21. "When we went into the meet against Penn State and Northwestern, it was really intimidating because they were ranked second and third in the Big Ten," junior Beth Burke said. "It was more of a contest

attended by many fans, the athletes relied on each other for support.

between Penn State and Northwestern instead of a trimeet. So, it was very uplifting after I swam the 200 breaststroke. It showed everybody that we were contenders and someone to be concerned about." Nitardy tried to stress swimming every meet fast and for the most part, everyone was doing that. As the team began to strengthen its abilities, it gained more confidence in its mental level of competition. "Diving is very mental. In fact it is 90 percent mental and 10 percent other things," Dixon said. "During the regular season I worked a lot on the mental aspect along with fine tuning the little technical and mechanical things." All the preparation during the regular season led up to the Big Ten Championships. The

team wanted to swim and dive well and judging by the team's performances, it accomplished that goal. "Everything came together at the Big Ten Championships, almost everyone swam lifetime bests," Burke said. "The performance the team gave was the best by far that I had witnessed in the past three seasons." The Big Ten Championships also helped many swimmers and divers achieve their personal goals they set at the beginning of the swimming and diving season. "I wanted to make the final heats in the Big Ten Championship, and I did that. I was able to swim in the freestyle consolation heat in the Big Ten Championships," sophomore Tracy Cook said. Dixon said, "Winning the Big Tens was a major highlight

and making it to the NCAA was great. I had never been to NCAA. I was glad to get the experience of diving against the top divers in the country at the NCAA [meet]." Dixon was the only Hoosier to make it to the NCAA meet. At the meet she placed 15th in the platform, 18th in the 1meter springboard and 20th in the 3-meter diving competition. Dixon scored the team's only points in the the national meet, placing IU 42nd in the nation with two points. Not only did the swimmers and divers take away many awards, honors and personal bests from the season, the coaches and athletes said they were also able to gain confidence in themselves. With the increased confidence, the season proved to be beneficial for the women not only in competition, but in their lives as well. 15

disciplined sport, as well as a difficult one." The team had to be even more determined and disciplined this season as it hit a long road on the way to the Big Ten and NCAA championships, Coach Duane Goldman said. There were man y bumps along the way, including circumstances that were for the most part out of the team's control. One circumstance was the arrest of Petche. He was arrested for sexual battery Feb. 26 outside of Kilroy's on Kirkwood. Petche was the captain and I U's onl y returning All-American. Despite the arrest of the

team captain, the team finished with a record of 15-5-1 and it was also able to maintain a Top 20 national ranking throughout the season. The team had a big moment when it hosted the Big Ten Wrestling Championships March 3-5. The season was tight for all 11 conference teams with 10 of the 11 teams ranked in the top 25 at one point of the season. Goldman made a decision to not allow Petche to v■restle in the meet. Without the AllAmerican, the team finished tenth with 40.5 points. Iowa won the meet for the 22nd consecutive time. The Hawkeyes scored 185 points. Sophomore Roger Chandler placed the highest for the team. He finished third. "It was nice to get I the Big Ten Tournament] hack and be recognized as a good enough team to host the tournament," Goldman said. Chandler along with juniors Ryan Edmundson and Jonathan McClain and sophomore Ben Nachtrieb qualified for the NCAA championships. Chandler placed eighth at the NCAA championships, which earned him All-American honors. Although the team had no national champions, the coaches and athletes were content with the performances during the season. With the loss of Petche, the team never reached their optimal level. "When I think of the team, I think of them at their best," Goldman said. "It was unfortunate that we weren't at full force." in

The individual performances of the men and women on the indoor track teams dominated the season. The teams did well as a whole on several occasions, but the top individual performances highlighted the season. Perhaps the most surprising individual perfbrmance came from junior shot putter Nathan Davis. A starting defensive end for the football team, it was Davis' first season to compete on the collegiate level in track. "I have been wanting to come out [for track] the past three years," Davis said. "The football coaches didn't want me to go out. After I started this past [tbotball season], I wasn't worried about it." Davis placed third at the NCAA championships March 10-11 in Indianapolis, earning All-American honors. Junior Brett Sullivan joined Davis at the meet, placing 13th. But NCAAs was not the onl y meet in which Davis and Sullivan excelled. At the Indiana Intercollegiates Meet Feb. 17 at the IU Fieldhouse, the pair finished 1-2 with Sullivan taking top honors. The performance helped the team to the championship. The two shot putters were not the only IU athletes to finish 1-2 that day. Senior Russ Pernus won the 55-meter hurdles and freshman Donald Tidwell finished second. Senior Mark Buse was the only other individual champion for the team as he won the pole vault. "Our hurdlers came through and ran well," men's assistant coach Marshall Goss said. "Our throwers threw very well again and our sprinters ran well, but we will have to run a lot better."

The women's team also performed well against its instate rivals, finishing second. Although Coach Roseann Wilson chose to rest many of the athletes for the upcoming Big Ten meet, the women had sonic top individual performances. Junior Stephanie Barnum and senior Heather Brown both won an individual event. Barnum won the 800 race and Brown won the 400. "It was good except there's always room to improve," Barnum said of her winning 800 performance, which was a personal record. Holding out top performers at the Intercollegiates meet proved beneficial for the team as it had two individual champions at the Big Ten Championships. Brown recorded another individual win at the conference meet held in Ann Arbor. A native of Ann Arbor, the win in the 400 race meant even more to Brown as she won her first Big Ten championship in her hometown. "[The win] feels good," Brown said. "I've waited four years for this." Brown was joined on the winners platform by teammate Hilary Bruening. Bruening, a sophomore, won the 600 race. The women's team was not the only one with Big Ten champions. For the second consecutive year, Buse won the pole vault championship March 25-26 in Champaign, Ill. His vault of 18-4.5 inches broke the Big Ten indoor meet record. "I kind of knew a record would get broken tonight," Buse said. "I knew coming in that it would he a great competition." in

Reaching high was definitely On the minds of the men's tennis team. The team's goal at the beginning of the season was to bring home the Big Ten championship trophy. But when the tournament rolled around, the team was not favored to take home the troph y . During the regular season, the Hoosiers lost to Big Ten foes Ohio State, Northwestern, Minnesota, Michigan and Penn State. Going into the tournament, the team was seeded seventh. And the results of the tournament were not exactly what the Hoosiers wanted. In the first round, the men faced Minnesota and lost, 1-4 "I came into the tournament with one goal — to win thetournament," senior Erik Barrett said. "When that didn't happen, you have to reevaluate your options." The men regrouped and came back the next two days to take revenge on earlier losses, defeating Ohio State, 4-0, and Penn State, 4-2, and earning fifth place in the Big Ten. "I think the team showed a lot of class beating two teams we lost to in the regular season," Barrett said, who played at No. 1 singles. Senior Mark Ableman said the season was more satisfying than last year's ninth place Big Ten finish. "It was a really good turnaround from last year," Ableman said. Barrett and freshman Derek Pope, the No. 2 singles player, earned top awards at the end of the season. They were selected for the All-Big Ten team. Barrett also won the Big Ten Sportsmanship award, and Pope

added another accolade with the Big Ten Freshman of the Year award. "I knew Erik was going to get it," Pope said. "I had no idea I was goin g, to be on the All-Big Ten team. It was a real honor." Besides being the top singles pla y ers, Barrett and Pope also comprised the No. 1 doubles team. The duo finished the Big Ten season undefeated in doubles play and advanced to the NCAA tournament, May 18. In their first match up against Tennessee in the NCAA tournament, Barrett and Pope W011, 7-5, 6-7, 6-3. But in the second match, they lost to StanfOrd, 4-6, 3-6. Although they did not advance further in the tournament, Barrett still looked back on the season in positive light. "The season worked out really well for me," he said. "I played some of the best tennis I ever played. I beat some players I have never beaten before. Everything has just fhlien into place for me this semester. It's been really nice."

Nine consecutive Big Ten championships, 500 career victories for Coach Lin Loring, a berth in the NCAA tournament, a final four appearance in the Intercollegiate Tennis Association Rolex Indoor Championships, but that was not all, the list continued. The women's tennis team racked up these and numerous other achievements during the season en route to another successful year. The Hoosiers finished the Year with a 24-7 overall record and an undefeated 13-0 Big Ten record. They achieved individual excellence both on and °tithe court. Seven members of the team earned Alpha- Beta honors f6r achieving at least a 3.0 grade point average. Seniors Rachel Epstein, Megan Mawicke and Holly Taylor, sophomore Lizl Coetsee, and freshmen Kathy Herring, Megan McCarnev and Megan Races' received the academic award. But on the court, the tennis team continued a dominance that was unparalleled in the Big Ten. With 14 Big Ten championships in the past 16 years, the Hoosiers have managed to rack up an

impressive record against their Big Ten fifes. Taking the No. 1 seed in the Big Ten conference championships, the Hoosiers lived up to the billing and defeated Minnesota, Purdue and Northwestern to take their ninth consecutive title. "We were all really excited and happy to win [the Big Ten Championship] again," junior Natasha Joshi said. "I think the scores were a little misleading. Every singles match was really close, and we really had to work fifr every singles match." On the way to victory, the Hoosiers picked up several more awards. [(wing was named Big Ten Coach of the Year, and Epstein and Taylor made the All-Big Ten team. The dual match season began Jan. 21 in Bloomington when the Hoosiers took on Western Michigan and Miami of Ohio. The Hoosiers opened the dual match season ranked 11th in the nation and easily defeated their unranked opponents. The first loss of the season would come the f6llowing day against the 35th-ranked Auburn Tigers. "We figured [Auburn ] was a solid team, and we are by no means at a stage where we can expect to dominate anybody," Epstein said, after the loss. The season moved forward and the Hoosiers racked up various indoor accolades before heading outdoors. Feb. 2, senior captain Rachel Epstein traveled to Dallas, Texas, to represent the Hoosiers in the ITA Rolex Indoor Championships.

Feb. 24 and made the final four tbr the first time in history after defeating- William and Mary and Pepperdine. The Hoosiers later lost to topseeded Georgia, 0-6. "We've had some disappointments at home this season, and it was nice being on the road, and it was a big accomplishment to pull out those victories," senior LeeAnn Rostovsky said. The 5-1 win over ninthranked Pepperdine also made history for Loring. The victory gave Loring his 500th career win and 458th at IU. Loring

became the highest winning coach in women's collegiate tennis history and the first ever to surpass the 500-win mark. "I attribute the success to all of the outstanding players I've coached over the years and to my assistant coaches," Loring said. The final match of the season was a Hoosier victory over Notre Dame on the indoor courts of the Tennis Pavilion. The team won, 6-3, after a tough set of singles matches left the Hoosiers with a 4-2 lead going into doubles competition. When the No. 1

duo Epstein and McGamey lost in two sets (4-6, 2-6), the final two matches took on greater importance. The No. 2 combination of Taylor and Herring came back from a first-set loss to take their match in three sets, 4-6, 6-4, 6-1. The No. 3 doubles team of Mawicke and Joshi clinched the victory as well as a top billing in the Midwest region. "The win itself really puts us in control of the region, so we control our destination as far as making it out of the region and getting into the NCAA tournament," Loring said.

The win also left the Hoosiers with a 20-6 mark. "It gives us a 20-win season, which in these days of limited play dates is a pretty good achievement," Loring said. After winning the Big Ten Championships, the Hoosiers traveled west to Malibu, Calif., to tackle the NCAA championships. After a first round 5-3 victory over the University of San Diego, the Hoosiers faced the second seed Texas Longhorns. The Longhorns had defeated the Hoosiers, 8-1, earlier in the season, and they managed

another lopsided victory on this occasion. Texas took the match by a score of 5-1 in the singles competition and then clinched the match before the doubles were even contested. Despite the second-round exit from the tournament, Loring was nothing less than proud of the team. "I really felt this team performed as good as they could have," he said. "They were not the most talented team, but they worked extremely hard. From a coaching standpoint, it was an extremel y satisfying season." in

An inexperienced men's golf team had to learn while on the job during the season. And although the team found itself struggling at times, valuable experience was gained for the future. The team's first tournament of the IA season was the Marquette Invitational. On the strength of a stellar first round, the team finished in seventh. The best team and individual finish of the fall season came at the Memphis/Xavier Invitational. The team wound up in a tie for fifth, while freshman Randy Leen finished in a tie for eighth in individual competition. With the fall season behind them, the team began the spring season with a tournament in Orlando, Fla., and a stop in Montgomery, Ala., before returning to the Midwest. At the Johnny Owens Invitational in Lexington, Ky., the men played consistent. Behind rounds of 300, 306 and 304 (910), the Hoosiers finished in a tie for fifth. Sophomore Don Padgett starred for the team with rounds of 74, 73 and 74 (221). Padgett finished fifth. The individual highlight of the year was supplied by freshman Josh Brewer at the Legends Invitational in Franklin, Ind. Brewer, whose highest finish before the Legends was a tie for 23rd place, won the entire tournament. After a steady one-over-par round of 73, Brewer scorched the course in the second round, with a score of four-under-par, 68. And after another one-over-par round of 73, Brewer had taken medalist honors. Brewer said working on his short game with Coach Sam Carmichael was a key to his win.

"Coach had us working on putting, pitching balls and bunker shots," Brewer said. "I felt like no matter where I hit it, I was still going to make par at worse, and that's always a good feeling." Although the team came in eighth place with rounds of 299, 295 and 300 (894), it was the first tournament of the year where the team broke 300 in two rounds. After the Buckeye Invitational and the Michigan State Invitational, the team turned its attention to the Big Ten Championship in Madison, Wis. The team played well at times but could ultimately do no better than a 10th place finish. The individual highlight was supplied by Lecn who finished in a four-way tic for eighth with rounds of 74, 74, 77 and 73 (298). Despite his low scores, Lcen felt his first two rounds could have been better. "The first two rounds I was hitting the ball well, but I missed a lot of putts right on the edge," Leen said. Carmichael said he knew that this would be a rebuilding year, with the lone upperclassman being a junior. He was happy with the way his young team progressed with each tournament, and he's looking forward to the future. "I think Randy improved, and Don and Josh arc getting more confidence," Carmichael said. "We just have to get the tour and five positions strengthened up a little bit. "We're not too far away from having a pretty good team. All we need are people playing the four and five spots a little bit more like the two and three players, and we'll have a good team," Carmichael said. El

Heading into the women's golf season, Coach Sam Carmichael was very optimistic about the upcoming year. His optimism was well-fbunded, as the team accomplished or bettered every preseason goal it had set, including finishing fifth in the nation in the NCAA Championship tournament. The season began with a bang, as the team won its first two tournaments of the fall season. At the Iowa Invitational, the women won going away on the strength of rounds of 302, 299 and 295 (896). The team then turned its attention to the Northern Open. In addition to taking the team title, junior Erika Wicoff earned medalist honors. She added another win to her resume during the fall season at the Lady_ Kat Invitational. In the spring season, the team raised its already stellar level of play. Mirroring the fall portion of the schedule, the team opened the spring season with a victory at the Peggy Kirk Bell Invitational. April was especially kind to the team. The Hoosiers began the month with a convincing victory at the Indiana Invitational. Two strong victories followed at the Southern Intercollegiate and the South Florida Invitational. After the South Florida Invitational, the team fOcused on the rapidly approaching Big Ten Championship in Ann Arbor, Mich. The tournament was almost over before it started, as the Hoosiers jumped to a big lead in the opening round and never looked back. The women easily defeated second-place Ohio State by 23 strokes. Wicoff extended her

tournament winning streak to four by firing rounds of 75, 71, 72 and 74 (292). In the process, she shattered the tournament's previous low score by five shots. But despite the history breaking performance, the team title was what mattered most to Wicoff. "The individual thing is just second," Wicoff said. "I've wanted to win as a team since my freshman year. We worked hard, and we finally did it." Wicoff was named Big Ten Player of the Year fOr the second consecutive year, but her teammates also received plenty of postseason accolades. Junior Stacy Quilling was named to the All-Big Ten team f6r the second consecutive year. Freshman Jenny Gray made it a trio of Hoosiers on the allconference team, and was also named Freshman of the Year. Gray said improved confidence helped bring her scores down during the spring season. "I think confidence and just having some more exposure has a lot to do with it," Gray said. Carmichael was named Big Ten Women's Coach of the Year for the fifth time. "I guess you get Coach of. the Year if your team plays well for you," Carmichael said. "They played well for me, and it's quite an honor When your peers think you're the best coach in the league. I'm very pleased about it, and I have to thank my kids for playing well to help me get there." After surviving regional qualitYing the f011owing week, the team received a berth to the NCAA tournament. The team continued its torrid play and wound up fifth, with Wicoff finishing in fOurth place overall for individuals. El

Buse finishes third in pole vault at NCAAs; Hughes, Sullivan also qualify

AIMING FOR THE TOP BY STEVEN CONWAY AND ROSIE PIGA

Garrett

As the 1993 NCAA outdoor pole vault champion and winner of tour Big Ten titles, junior Mark Buse hoped to add a second national title to his list of accolades. But on the day of the NCAA Championships in Knoxville, Tenn., Buse's vault of 5.40 meters fell short of his goal. He finished third, .3 meters behind first place finisher Lawrence Johnson of Tennessee. The third place finish did not leave Buse satisfied. "I was looking to do a little better than third," he said. The winds during the meet at Tom Black Track presented a problem for the pole vaulters. "When we w armed up, we had a really good wind at our backs," Buse said, whose third place finish gave IU its only six points and a 42nd place finish. "But when the event got started, it shifted and came right at us, so everybody had to change everything." Buse was not the only member of the team who highlighted the men's track season. Besides Buse, junior Brett Sullivan and senior Darrell Hughes also qualified for the NCAA Championships. Sullivan placed 10th in the shot put with a throw of 17.81 meters, but Hughes failed to qualify for the finals in the 1,500. His time of 3:49.48 in the first heat fell short of advancing him to the next heat. During the beginning of the season, the men's team fell short of clinching first place in its early meets. The team placed second at the Texas Quadrangular and at the Indiana Intercollegiates.

The next meet, the Sea Ray Relays, in Knoxville, Tenn., was unscored, but Buse automatically qualified for the NCAAs with his vault of 5.6. Sullivan qualified in the next meet, the Kentucky Quadrangular, with a throw of 18.14, and the team captured first place at the meet. Going into its next meet proved to be a glimpse of things to come. In the Illinois Quadrangular, the team competed against Big Ten rivals, Purdue and Illinois, but finished a disappointing third behind both teams. Despite the team's performance, Hughes finished first in the 3,000 while sophomore Donald Tidwell won the 110 hurdles. The team next ran through two unscored meets, the Penn Relays and the National Invitational. At the National Invitational, Hughes qualified for the NCAA Championships in the 1,500 with a time of 3:43. The men's track team welcomed its next home meet, the Billy Hayes Invitational, May 13. It was the first meet at the newly resurfaced Billy Hayes track, and the Hoosiers eagerly tested out the track. "We finally got to practice on it this week," said junior Jason McKissock, who competed in the javelin, the 400 hurdles and the 1,600 relay at the meet. "It was hard to run on because it was so fast, and my steps were off on the hurdles." Although a slight drizzle fell during the meet, the water did not pose a problem because the new track's thin coat of silicone continued

But McKissock's third place was onl y the beginning. He also threw a season best 55.88 meters in the javelM and was part of the winning 1,600 relay team with a time of 3:12.80. "With the weather, I didn't think it was going to be my

day," McKissock said. "[The invitational] is going to help me and gives me confidence going into meets where there'll be a lot of competition." McKissock had the Big Ten Championships in mind, the team's final meet, but the team could finish no higher than eighth. Although the team was not expected to finish higher, IU track and field coordinator Sam Bell was still disappointed. "We improved but not as much as I had hoped," Bell said.

Junior Nathan Davis places his body weight into his throw at the Big Ten Championships. Davis' best discus throw of the season was 51.34 meters at the Texas Quadrangular, March 25. Junior John Baum paces himself in the 1,500meter run at the Big Ten Championships in Minneapolis. Baum's best time for the 1,500 during the season came at the National Invitational, May 6 with a time of 3:55.48.

"I don't think we should be satisfied with eighth, and I'm certainly not." A boost to the team's performance was when Buse clinched his fburth Big Ten pole vaulting title. His primary competition came from Illinois' Daren McDonough. After vaulting, both men were tied for the lead with vaults of 5.52. The winner was decided by who had the fewest misses, and Buse came

away with the title. "After our 10th attempt, we were both very tired," Buse said. "It was a tremendous competition and could have gone either way." Also during the Big Ten's, Sullivan placed second in the shot put with a throw of 17.89, his highest finish ever at a conference championship meet. Hughes finished third in the 1,500, and Pernus also finished third in the 400 hurdles.

Bell did not expect the Hoosiers to contend for the Big Ten Championship, but said the team could have done a lot better had the University provided the fitcilities. "We didn't have an outdoor track until May, and that inhibited our preparation a great deal," Bell said, referring to the resurfacing of the Bill y Hayes track. "It inhibits how hard we can work, and it affected how good we could be." in

The women's track team tried to carry the success of its indoor season outdoors, but it was an uphill battle. Besides injuries, the team had to do without an outdoor home track tOr much of the season, and it had to struggle through a mid-season incident in which nine members of the team were arrested. Billy Hayes track, the outdoor track, went through a renovation. A new surface called mondo-rubber replaced the old surface. "It is the same type of track which is on the track at the RCA Dome, the same material that is on the track at the IU stadium in Indianapolis, the same material that was on the Olympic track in Barcelona and the same material that will be on the track in Atlanta," said Sam Bell, track and field coordinator. "The new track gives the team a good attitude. It's a faster track and safer with more cushion," Coach Roseann Wilson said. "It will help attitude, and it will help recruiting." The women's team put the new track to the test when they competed in the Billy Hayes Invitational May 13. Despite the rainy weather conditions, freshman Nathalie Belfort placed second in the high jump, sophomore Hilary Bruening finished second in the 400 meters and sophomore Jill Nace finished second in the 3,000. Seniors Rachel Nichols placed fourth in the javelin and Phynice Kelley placed fourth in the 100 and 200. But while the new track was

being completed, the team had to practice inside the Fieldhouse. This put many of the athletes at a disadvantage against other teams because, for example, the hurdlers could not work on their steps between hurdles. Another distraction the team faced was the mid-season arrest of nine track athletes after a party was broken up by the Bloomington Police Department. Despite the obstacles the team thced, it pushed its way through the season, which began with a quadrangular meet in Austin, Texas. The Hoosiers finished second behind host University of Texas. In the meet, three Hoosiers captured first place in their events. Freshman Jennifer Kamtz won the discus, freshman Taquesha Owens won the long jump, and sophomore Alison Morgan won the shot put. BeThre the season began, Wilson said one of the strengths of the team was its shot put and discus throwers. Another strength was in its runners at the 400 and 800. "That whole group is really carrying the team," Wilson said, prior to the season. Also at the Texas meet, runners finished high in the 800. Juniors Stephanie Barnum and Krista Ferrara finished second and third, respectively, while Bruening placed fourth. The team competed next in the Indiana Intercollegiates April 1 in Muncie, Ind., but the momentum of its second place finish could not be carried over

"I was really shocked," Brown said. "I didn't have much left, but I finished strong, which is usuall y a weak spot of mine. I just kept pushing through."

At best, it could be said that the Hoosier baseball team had a strange season. The team finished with a 33-23 record, but finished 1216 in Big Ten play, failing to qualify for the playoffs. A closer look inside the season shows some of the strange things that happened on the field this year. For example,

the Hoosiers pounded out 23 hits to beat IUPUI one day by the score of 25- l . On the other hand, in a four game series against Big Ten Opponent Penn State, Indiana batters left 35 runners on base. The y were able to gain a split onl y due to two shutouts being tossed by staff ace Scott Mudd, a senior, and lefty hurler Brian Partenheimer, a sophomore, in the weekend finales. Another example: the Hoosiers knocked around instate opponent Hanover College 20-2 in the last home game at

Sembower Field. "It was nice to get one last win for our seniors," sophomore third basemen Mike Crotty said. But the Hoosiers then closed out the season b y losing three of four at Purdue to get knocked out of the Big Ten playoffs. Indiana also lost seven of its last II games, but still finished with a highly respectable 33 wins. Several members of the team garnered post-season honors, led by Crotty. Crotty had an outstanding sophomore season, leading the Hoosiers in almost every offensive category. Crotty hit .423 with 12 home runs and 64 runs batted in. His 82 hits placed him ninth on IU's all-time single season hit list. Crottv also crushed the ball during the tougher Big Ten schedule, hitting .356 with tour home runs and 16 runs batted in. Crotty hit safely in eight consecutive at bats during the season. The star third sacker capped off his strong season by being named to the Big Ten All-Conference second team. "I played well this year, and I can onl y hope to improve next year, both as an individual and as a team," Crotty said. Junior pitcher Brian Greene also turned in a fine year. He had a record of tour wins and four losses, surrendering 75 hits n 61 innings while striking out continued

30 batters. He culminated his season by being drafted I by the Chicago Cubs in the 26th round of the amateur free agent draft held in June. Greene was the fifth IU player chosen by the Cubs since 1990. Others include former outfielder Marty Gazarek, infielder Kevin Orie, third basemen Byron Bradle y and infielder-outfielder Phil Dauphin. Greene will bypass his senior season and will start his career in the New York-Pennsylvania League with the Cubs' affiliate

in Williamsport, Pa. Greene was not the only presence on the mound. Mudd also emerged as the staff leader this season. Mudd turned in a solid 7-3 record, giving Coach Bob Morgan 95.2 innings. Mudd's 86 strikeouts gave him 200 for his career, placing him third on IU's all-time list. Mudd ended up being drafted by the Texas Rangers in the 30th round of the draft, where he will also report to the Rangers' New YorkPennsylvania League. Mudd joined former IU star Mike

Smith as a member of the Ranger organization. Also, not to be tOrgotten are IU's four Academic All-Big Ten team. The team was wellrepresented by sophomores Dan Ferrell, Ryan Frantz and Brett Lewis, as well as Mudd. The team should be in fine shape next season, as they will onl y lose four seniors who made significant contributions this year. If Morgan can find someone to replace Mudd's wins and innings, and Crony stays health y , the team will be one to watch on the field. in

Softball team pulls together to get ball rolling after slow start

MAKING A COMEBACK BY STEVEN CONWAY

"WE'RE IN A GOOD POSITION. I DEFINITELY FEEL LIKE WE COULD BEAT ANYONE IN THE BIG TEN." COACH DIANE STEPHENSON

298 Sports

Shuffling- lineups and trading wins and losses against non-conference opponents, the women's softball team seemed unable to hit its stride throughout the first month of the season and found itself with an 8-10 record going into the conference portion of the schedule. "The talent is there," senior Michelle Venturella said. "We just need to pull together and play together as a team." With Venturella as the 1994 Big Ten Player of the Year, a talented freshman class and the complete pitching staff back on the mound, the team was confident that it could build on last year's Big Ten championship season. But the team realized it would be a hard act to follow. The season began at the Southern Illinois Invitational, and the team started with a stumble, losing three of the four games. Its lone victory came against Western Illinois with a 7-4 decision. The team regrouped in time for Big Ten play. In a four game set at home against Penn State, March 25-26, the Hoosiers took three of the four games, and it was a team effort all the way. Venturella and hard hitting sophomore Meg Montgomery contributed doubles in the series opener to lift the team to a 8-0 win. In game two, six players scored another eight runs as the Hoosiers won, 8-2. The next day saw the team drop a close 1-0 decision to the Nittany Lions, but it got revenge in the closer when freshman shortstop Monica

Armendarez knocked a grand slam in the top of the fifth to give the team a 7-1 lead. The Hoosiers held on to the lead and won, 10-5. "We had started to come together," Coach Diane Stephenson said, after the series. "I think this weekend the team started to believe that." For her efforts against Ball State and Penn State, Armendarez was named the Big Ten Player of the Week. She had hit two of her seven home runs of the season, had five RBIs and scored six runs during those five games. Junior Gina Ugo also was honored when she received the Big Ten Pitcher of the Week award. She appeared in all five games against the Cardinals and the Nittany Lions, winning three games, including two wins against Penn State in one day. She also struck out 28 batters on her way to improving her record to 8-3, with an ERA of only 1.68. The team followed its triumph over the Nittany Lions with a two game sweep of Indiana State. Its next challenge would be a four game series against Michigan in Ann Arbor. The Wolverines were ranked fifth in the nation with a 23-5 record. The Hoosiers, winners of six of their last eight games, ran headlong into a brick wall, that was the Michigan pitching staff. The team scored only three runs in the series, while the Wolverines piled up 36 on their way to a sweep. "We didn't come out to play to win, and we have to cut

down on our errors," Armendarez said. "But these games are over, and we can't let this happen again." It was a character test for Stephenson's squad, and the team passed. It won eight of its next 12 games, including a fourgame sweep of its own against Ohio State. "We came out really aggressive," junior second baseman Misten Mager said. "We weren't going to let Ohio State get out of town with anything." Sophomore third baseman Aimee Lonigro won the Big Ten Player of the Week for her performance against the Buckeyes. She hit .455 in the

series with four RBI, seven runs scored and three stolen bases. The team had built its record back up to 21-20, with a conference record of 10-8, which put them in a battle for third place in the Big Ten. "We're in a good position," Stephenson said. "I definitely feel like we could beat anyone in the Big Ten." The next series would be a critical one at Minnesota. The Hoosiers once again were not able to keep their momentum as the Golden Gophers took three of the four games. The team found itself in fourth place in the conference, an important spot because only the top tour teams move on to

the Big Ten tournament. The next series was a twogamer against Purdue, which the teams split. The Hoosier women held on to a fourth place tie with Minnesota going into the final conference series of the year at Iowa. Stephenson's squad faced a must-win situation against the Hawkeyes. Minnesota was playing Ohio State at the same time, and the Hoosiers needed to win at least one game more than the Golden Gophers in order to make the postseason tournament. But the team was only able to take two games from Iowa, while Minnesota dashed the continued

oosier's hopes of postseason play by H sweeping the Buckeyes. The team was unaware of Minnesota's victories until after its games. "When I heard, my stomach sank," freshman Trina Valencia, who went seven for 13 at the plate against Iowa. "There was still a part of me hoping we could go anyway." The final series of the season would be at home against DePaul, May 9. The doubleheader marked the end of the college careers of seniors Michelle Venturella, right fielder Jenny Mitchell and pitcher Janelle Campbell. It was fitting that although

the Blue Demons swept the Hoosiers, the real star of the series was Venturella, who was awarded the Big Ten Medal of Honor April 24 as IU's Outstanding Female Athlete of the Year. In her four seasons, Venturella racked up four Big Ten Player of the Week awards, two Academic All-Big Ten selections and a unanimous Big Ten Player of the Year award. Her name is all over the record books. She holds the NCAA record for most walks in a season with 56 in 1994 and holds nine other IU records, including most runs scored and most doubles. She hit a total of 28 home runs, more than twice

the old record, and her career total of 153 RBI is 55 more than anyone in school history. Venturella's impact on the team spoke for itself. But the impact of the freshman class of Armendarez, Ashley Gayer, Tammy Gomez, Heather Henriott and Valencia also was impressive. Armendarez started every game, batted .330, slammed seven home runs and racked up 37 RBI. Venturella summed up her feelings about the season, but perhaps for the whole team as well, when she said, "I just want to gain the respect of the people I play with, the coaches I've played under and the other people wherever I play."

Various intramural events offer friendly competition to students

A SPORTING VARIETY BY MICHELLE COOK

"I WAS PROUD TIIAT I WON BECAUSE THE COMPETITION WAS VERY GOOD." JUNIOR GREG DUNN

302 Sports

Each year thousands of students participate in intramural sports. The sports range from traditional basketball, softball, swimming and volleyball to the not so traditional Run tbr the Endzone and Basketball Bonanza. In previous years, the Run for the Endzone was run on the IU cross country course. The race was changed and instead of the cross country course, the runners ran through campus and finished the race by running across the football field at Memorial Stadium. Part of the reason for changing the event was parking and the participants ease of getting to the starting line. In the past, the runners had to walk through the IU golf course back to the cross country course to get to the starting line. "People had to walk a mile to the start line before the race even began," Department of Recreational Sports graduate assistant Stace y Hall said of the old race held at the cross country course. Although the new course's starting line was more convenient for the participants, some runners still wished the Run for the Endzone race would have been held at the cross country course. "It's one of the top [ cross country courses] in the country," said junior Bill Keedy, who finished the 5K course in 17:24. "You get a new respect for the cross country team [by running on the course]." More than 350 people participated in the race. The

money collected from the event benefitted the HPER library. Run for the Endzone was not the only non-traditional event offered to students. Other non-traditional and new events offered were the Home run Derby, Ultimate Frisbee, four person volleyball and a spring softball tournament. The non-traditional and new sports were popular, but by far the most popular intramural sport was basketball. More than 400 teams participated. Hall said the increase in the number of teams was because of changes made for the participants, such as extending the season and putting the teams into divisions. But the changes were not the principal reasons the sport remained so popular year after year. "It is a sport everyone grows up with and is familiar with," Hall said about the popularity of basketball. "They know the rules and feel more comfortable with it." One of the changes involved implementing divisions. The three leagues — men's, women's and co-ed — were divided into two divisions: Division I and Division II. Division I was for the more competitive teams and Division 11 was for the less skilled teams. After the regular season, the teams moved into the singleelimination tournament. The Squad won the co-intramural Division I championship and Gamma Phi Beta A won the women's Division I championship. The men's Division I and II championships

Robb I fill

were both won by teams from the Sigma Nu house. The Division I final was a battle of fraternity brother against fraternity brother as Sigma Nu A battled Sigma Nu B for the all-campus basketball championship. The house was divided as the juniors and seniors cheered on the A team, which was mostly juniors and seniors, and the freshmen and sophomores supported their brothers on the B team. The A team prevailed and took the championship by three points, 53-50, over the younger B team. "It was kind of like a pride thing in the house because we look up to the seniors," sophomore Brian Baker, a

member of the B team, said. Basketball was not only offered in its traditional form through the Department of Recreational Sports. For the second consecutive year, the Basketball Bonanza took place at Wildermuth. More than 300 students participated in the seven events ranging from a free throw contest, 3-point contest, a hero contest, a spot shot contest and a slam-dunk contest. The crowd favorite slam-dunk contest was won by junior Greg Dunn, a member of Acacia. Dunn won with a 360-degree dunk. "I was proud that I won because the competition was very good," Dunn said about his dunk. "I was just happy to win." in

Shouldering an injury Senior Jeff Jorge works through rehabilitation to return to the wrestling scene hen senior Jeff Jorge entered the University four years ago, he dreamed of completing a degree with a top university and wrestling among the nation's best. After choosing, to major in HPER, he began his journey of completing one of his dreams. UntOrtunately, a shoulder injury prevented him from fulfilling the other, at least for one year. Student athletes often had to divide their time between academics and training. And while some athletes came to college with dreams of going professional, very few actually had the opportunity to do so. Along with their quest for top performance, some athletes pushed their bodies so hard that they hurt themselves in the process. Jorge, a wrestler for the Hoosier team, knew the frustration of being an injured athlete. After injuring his shoulder in the spring of his redshirt junior year, Jorge had to sit out his fourth year as well — wasting one year of eligibility. He had one year left to prove to himself, his coaches and his team that he could return as a powerful force as a fifth-year senior. But Jorge not only had to concentrate on wrestling and school, he had to spend even more hours every day rehabilitating his shoulder. Jorge had three surgeries on his left shoulder. First, he had orthoscopic surgery on his shoulder, and then his bicipital tendon had to be shaved down. Because the second surgery was unsuccessful, Jorge had to have reconstructive surgery in January. Jorge started his wrestling career in seventh grade. "His big brother would come home from practice and try out all his moves on Jeff," his mother, Delores Jorge, said. "Jeff only began wrestling so he could pin down his brother and he did." Ever since, wrestling has been a huge influence in Jorge's life and was one of the main reasons he chose IU. The combination of strong academics and a powerful Big Ten university sports program attracted continued

im to the Bloomington campus. Jorge knew that wrestling would not always be there for him, and so H he planned to go into tourism management after graduation. In the meantime, Jorge wanted to be the best wrestler he could be. Like other non-revenue sports, wrestling has no professional opportunities and Jorge knew college would probably be the end of his wrestling career. He tried not to let his injuries get him down. "I know there's more to life than wrestling," Jorge said, "but that's what I want to do, and I'm going to do it." After surgery, Jorge noticed his shoulder felt better. He tried not to push anything too hard too fast, but he found it difficult. Jorge's parents worry about their son like any other parent, but wrestling is a rough, physically demanding sport, and they had lots of concern. "I keep wondering when he's going to stop," his father, Victor, said. "After his first surger y part of me wished he would give it up, but I kept my opinion to myself — I let my kids do their thing."

njuries complicated matters for parents as well as the athletes. "Part of me wished that he wouldn't get on the mat [after his second surgery], but part of me wants [ Jeff] to reach his full potential. As a regular mom I hold my breath every time he steps on the mat, but I would never tear that wrestling is a part of Jeff part away — it's part of his make-up." After three surgeries and months of rehab, Jorge had almost all of the flexibilit y back in his shoulder by April. He started sparring with other people instead of a dummy he had to use earlier. Although grateful that he was going to be able to wrestle again, he looked at it with a

different attitude. "You just have to realize that athletics might not always be there," Jorge said. "If you get a second chance you better take advantage of it. That's what I'm doing but smarter than before." Jorge's mom had no doubt that he would be successful. "With his personality and his perseverance, Jeff will get what he wants," Delores said. "He'll give it ISO percent. I know he'll do well because he'll put his heart into it." Jorge felt positive about the upcoming year. "I guess we'll see once I'm cleared, but I'm definitel y going all out." I :71

to 1570 AM. This was an opportunit y "early student radio folks with WIUS would have given their eve teeth for," said senior Steve Whitcomb, WIUS' station manager since 1992. Prior to the switch to AM, listeners had to pay $5 for cable hookup, but this expense was no longer necessary since an AM ftequency allowed more accessible, on-campus reception. Some off-campus students still needed to buy a cable, but were able to pick up the station either in a car or with a Walkman on campus. The move was possible for WIUS because of an increase in the student activity fee, providing WIUS with 20 cents from every student each semester. "The station should collect an estimated $14,000 each year," Dean of Students Richard McKaig said. WIUS had received funding from other organizations, such as block grants from IUSA and direct money from the University. "The money from the activity fee will be used to bu y new equipment for the station and an y leftover money will be put into a University account that has been

established for WIUS," Whitcomb said. Student activities were a main focus for the station. They helped sponsor Fall Fest with the Fine Arts Student Association and participated in Culture Shock, as well as the Homecoming parade and Dance Marathon. Culture Shock, an all day event held each spring in Dunn Meadow, featured 16 bands playing on two stages. "This is Culture Shock's 10th year," Whitcomb said. "Last year, over 7,000 people attended and this year, we are hoping for over 10,000 people." "At the beginning of the year, we intended to start up our old DJ service. Then we realized CASI, the division of I USA that provides funds to student organizations and had funded Culture Shock in the past, was broke. So, we started to book Bloomington bands to play at Rhino's as a fundraiser for Culture Shock," sophomore Mark Rothkopf, WIUS' promotional director, said. Rhino's was the only establishment in Bloomington where people under 21 can hear live bands. As a part of WI US' AM Awareness Week in January, a concert took place featuring Octopus, a band from Dayton, Ohio, and Gunkle, WIUS special events director, sophomore Damon Gunkel's band.

to make the IU campus more aware of WIUS and its move to AM by canvassing certain areas of campus with fliers and handbills to insure as many students as possible would hear about the station and its events. "So far, it has had a positive effect. We are certainly hearing from lots of students," Whitcomb said. "AM not only broadened our listening audience, but also enhanced a lot of the aspects of our program. Our staff takes things more seriously and is more excited because of our bigger audience," junior Tarsis Lopez, DJ and newscaster, said.

An additional two hours of the program included music from other Bloomington bands. WI US also started videotaping the performances to be broadcast on BCAT, Bloomington's cable access channel, along with band interviews for a half hour program at 9 p.m. every Thursday night. The station ran 24 hours a day, seven days a week, with the help of about 120 unpaid student volunteers. WIUS' regular programs primarily featured modern or alternative rock, but also included heav y metal, Spanish rock, reggae and IU's football and basketball games. El

Their collective goal was to learn more about AIESEC and how to promote the organization to corporations locally and internationally. AIESEC, pronounced "eye-sek," is a French acronym standing for "Association Internationale des Etudiantes en Science Economiques et Commerciales," or in English, "the International Association of Students in Economics and Business." AIESEC has operated in 78 countries and across the United States. Because of its objectives to promote internationalism and pull the world closer together, AIESEC has been endorsed by chief executives, ministers, heads of government and two Popes. "It is impressive to see so many students from different schools get together and work toward a common goal: internationalism," sophomore Laura Owen said.

After a welcoming party Friday night, a tight training schedule started at 8:30 a.m., Saturday. The conference sessions were categorized into three main groups: Young Up and Coming Leaders for new members, Experienced Members for active members and Local Chapter Presidents for AIESEC presidents at different universities. All of the training sessions at the conference were taught by experienced AIESEC members. Topics discussed included the International Traineeship Exchange Program, one of AIESEC's most outstanding programs which allowed members to obtain overseas internships fbr big businesses, small businesses, farmers, community workers and governments. Junior Christianna Malocha, sales director of AIESEC Indiana, said "Sub-regional was a great experience for me, not only being with my fellow Indiana AIESECers, but AIESECers from other states and our trainees from Belgium, Japan and Singapore, as well." Indiana AIESEC members gave themselves a "thumbs up" for a job well done at the Sub-regional Conference. Junior Tony Baker, finance director of AIESEC Indiana, said, "The seminars on leadership and delegation practices were well done. Overall, I think it was a great success." in

ivabj creates articulate voice

Santiago Fir IU Association of Black Journalists founder and assistant to the publisher of the Indiana Daily Student, graduate student Bala Baptiste, critiques the paper. Baptiste had an active roll in encouraging students to take advantage of working at the IDS and writing for IUABI's weekly column.

by karen dayton In March 1994, African-American students majoring in journalism formed an organization to provide support for minority students. The organization, with such national chapter members as Oprah Winfrey, Bernie Shaw, Ed Bradley and Bryant Gumble, was the IU Association of Black Journalists. The chapter of IUABJ, with about 20 journalism and telecommunications students, was formed as a positive organization to help align African-Americans at IU with others nationwide. Junior Lori Wilson, secretary of IUABJ, said one of the group's goals was "to reach out to the African-Americans in the journalism school because there arc so few of us. We want to be an articulate voice." The idea for such an organization started in January 1994, when graduate student Bala Baptiste, an active member of the organization, contacted Dean Trevor Brown, who approved of a chapter of the National Association of Black Journalists. Baptiste then sent letters to all of the African-American students in the journalism school, urging them to start an IU chapter of the organization. From their first meeting on, the students took over the organization. Senior Jawan Strader, IUABJ president, said African-American students often get discouraged and need someone to help them succeed. Baptiste agreed. "These students needed a black authority figure to encourage them not to leave this school without the experience of reporting, editing or becoming a part of a publication," he said. "He brought everyone together," Strader said of Baptiste, "and within two months we had our own constitution and bylaws." Sophomore Krystyn Busby said she joined the organization for the experience. "I thought it would be good to do something, now that I know what I want to do with m y future." For senior Ken ya Holmes, the best part of IUABJ was "the opportunit y to spend time with other black journalism and telecommunications students." The association's main purpose was to help continued

IUABJ was a newly created organization to promote minority students in journalism, sponsor workshops and lectures, award scholarships in programs supporting minorities, and provide mentors to its members. The group held a film festival, featuring an old African-American movie "Shaft" in January to raise money for its scholarship fund. Another main focus of IUABJ was holding panel discussions with prominent AfricanAmerican journalists to address students' concerns about minorities in the fields of print and broadcast journalism.

Golden Key's mission was to recognize the academic excellence of juniors and seniors in the top 15 percent of their class, promote personal and intellectual development, forge new and lasting friendships and create an enduring positive impact on the IU community. They were also involved in philanthropic activities, such as visiting local high schools to teach the dangers of drugs and alcohol.

African-American students, as well as other minorities, to excel in different areas of journalism including internships, scholarships and academic achievement. One of Baptiste's personal goals for the organization was to better the press and the representation of the black communit y through the future involvement of black students in news organizations. Because IUABJ was not formall y recognized by the University until March, they did not have much time to schedule programs. The organization was able to sponsor one panel discussion at the end of the 1993-1994 school year, regarding African-Americans succeeding in the field of journalism with guests from Indianapolis such as Tina Cosby and Leah Hope, anchors at Channel 6 News in Indianapolis. One of the group's first regular activities was a monthl y film series in which it held raffles for prizes. The y also aimed to raise enough funds to create a yearly scholarship for a minority student in the field of journalism and started a weekly column in the Indiana Daily Student to discuss minority issues the group felt needed to be addressed to the public. Strader thought belonging to the group helped students learn skills they will need in the future. Through regional and national conferences, students networked with other minority journalists, which could lead to internships or jobs. Members of the group planned to travel across the state of Indiana to talk to minority students and encourage them to consider academics before a school's social scene. "We want to encourage them to look at the benefits of going to a good school, even if it has a white majority and their friends want to go to predominantly black schools. The journalism school here has so much to offer," Strader said. In

the basics of community service by Joanne magiros Business law, accounting, system analysis and design, international marketing and community service. With all of the pressures of a major in business, it would seem impossible to include community service. But this was not the case tbr IU's business students. Business Students Involved in Community Service was a student-driven volunteer program designed especiall y for business majors. The program, called BaSICS, helped business students step Outside of their classroom and into the Bloomington community. "The program operates as a liaison between community service organizations and students interested in doing volunteering work," senior Scott Scmper, chairman of BaSICS, said. "Local organizations call when there is a need for extra volunteers, whether for a shift at the community kitchen or to shovel a senior citizen's walk. BaSICS sends an e-mail message to its members, who can then choose what they enjoy doing," senior Katie Culbertson explained. Students became members of BaSICS upon completing 15 volunteer points, at least one point being earned for each hour worked.

"BaSICS provided me with different types of volunteering opportunities and helped me become more aware of what is going on outside the classroom. It gave me an initiative to help people and to become a part of the Bloomington community," sophomore K.J. Bunch said. Regular BaSICS activities included volunteering at the Hoosier Hills Food Bank, a conversation exchange which linked a business student with an international IU student and the Meadowood Friendl y Visitor Team, through which students spent time with the elderly. In addition, the BaSICS program put together two ongoing community service programs, Alternative Spring Break and the Elementary Mentor Program. Both programs "pair college student volunteers with elementary students as a means of scholarship help and social and developmental encouragement," Semper said. "I coach 8- and 9-year-old boys in basketball at the Boys' Club, and I get such a great feeling being there. I feel I can relate to them easil y because they look to me not onl y as their role model but as their friend," Bunch said. For business students and other students alike, BaSICS provided a new perspective to life that took them far beyond the classroom and expanded toward the community. FM

This was one of the activities the IMU Outfitters offered to IU students, fliculty and staff, as well as to the Bloomington community. Since 1972, the Outfitters provided a variety of opportunities for the campus, including organizing about 40 common adventure outings each semester and offering instruction courses in skills such as rock climbing, flat water ka y aking and wilderness living,. The Outfitters also rented camping equipment and gave the public access to its resource library, containing files fbr all 50 states and some countries. The Outfitters also published a pamphlet, available at the Activities Desk in the IMU, each semester listing a variety of upcoming trips and skills courses. The selection ranged from mountain biking to backpacking to caving to sky diving. Many of the trips also offe red an opportunity to travel, taking adventuresome participants to other states,

including West Virginia, Kentucky, Michigan, North Carolina and Florida. The actual hang gliding experience began after a pre-trip meeting with the Outfitters' coordinator to finalize plans and payment. The meeting was also a chance to become acquainted with other participants. On a rainy Frida y morning- in November, the group of 13 gathered at the Union and headed south toward the thrill of flying and the fun of camping. After a da y of driving, the y reached Georgia and began to work together. With the exceptions of having trouble finding the campsite and dealing with the weather, the first night of the trip went well. Tents were neatly assembled in a semi-circle around a roaring campfire. "I think the best time for people to get to know each other was in front of the campfire. We told ghost stories and bad jokes and made popcorn. Or, tried to make popcorn," sophomore Simon Lee said.

favorite fireside dessert. Winds and rain continued to pick up that evening. The campers eventually were fbrced to move their tents from a pile of dead limbs that had blown from surrounding, trees. The group finally experienced the sensation of flying the next day. Rising at the crack of dawn, the campers packed up their tents and headed for the hang gliding hills. Proceeding a half hour of instruction, the group climbed the hills filled with anticipation and, at long last, began to hang glide. "It's absolutely incredible ... you're running and you keep running and the next thing you know, you're running in the air. And then it's just WHOA!" graduate student Chanda Driscoll said.

Everyone in the group had about five runs down the hill, and most of the adventure seekers became airborne at least once. For a slightly higher fee, four of the group's members had the opportunity to experience a tandem flight, an experience closer to actual hang gliding. These participants were carried up about 2,000 feet by small airplane. They then were released with experienced instructors at their side. They spent the following 15 minutes flying above the beautiful mountains of Georgia. Andrew McTaggart, a researcher for the chemistry and geology departments, exclaimed with enjoyment after the tandem flight. "You just feel so free," he said. The trip was McTaggart's fourth with the Outfitters. "I wanted to get back

into outdoor activities, which I sacrificed while completing my doctorate in ocean chemistry," McTaggart said. More than 800 students become involved with the Outfitters each year, whether through a trip or one of the man y classes offered. Everyone was welcome, from the first-time camper to the most experienced outdoors person. "For a lot of people, the outfitters are a stepping stone," said Dave Calvin, director of the Outfitters for the past year and a part time graduate student. Calvin said many of their trips "spark an interest" in people, leading them back to the Outfitters or on to other adventures elsewhere. Such was the case with John Day, a photographer

for the geological survey at IU. The hang gliding trip was his second. "I've already been sky diving, but I was interested in more air time and the feeling of fl ying," Day said. The Outfitters also began to branch out into environmental issues with outings focused on tackling environmental clean-ups and rebeautification, providing a recreational and educational experience. The Outfitters were alread y proud of practicing low impact camping, leaving the environment as close to the way they found it as they could. The IMU Outfitters offered something for anyone who enjoyed the outdoors and was looking for a little adventure, regardless of experience level. El

Foreign students such as Lee expressed much of the same feelings during the Lunar Year celebration. To continue this Chinese tradition even on fiireign soil, the Singapore Students Association held the celebration Jan. 27 at the Wok Chinese Cuisine on Kirkwood Avenue. Despite cold and icy conditions, about 45 people came together to celebrate with SSA. Guests of honor, Kenneth Rogers, associate dean of the International Center, and SSA's adviser, Professor William Perkins were present at the party to share the festivities. Lunar New Year was one of the most significant festivals in Chinese society. Private employees received an extra bonus and children and single adolescents received "Red Packet Money" from married people. "Red Packet Money" was also

known as "Lucky Money," or money in little red envelopes. The celebration was a time to get wealthy simply by uttering auspicious words. One of the most common phrases used was, "Kung hei fat choi" (wish you'll get wealthy ). Red scrolls with lucky phrases were also put on the walls for Lunar New Year Month. Big feasts, common to festivals, were not absent to Lunar New Year. Chinese always coined auspicious names to whatever they ate on Lunar New Year, which was based on ('hinese puns. Senior Yvonne Ng said, "In Chinese, fish and excess sound very similar. At the party, we had a dish called Excess for Every Year, which symbolizes we are wealthy enough to have excess at the end of every year." Regardless of the names of the dishes, partygoers gorged themselves on a buffet. Junior Wei Lam was one of the members who enjoyed participating in SSA's gatherings.

SSA organized different activities regularly throughout the year, such as the orientation party "Old Meets New," Singapore Student Coffee Hour at the International Center, pot luck parties and barbecues. SSA members also participated in a Cropwalk, a walk-a-thon to raise funds for hunger awareness in the world. Although SSA received subsidies from the Singapore Embassy in the United States, they also had fund-raising activities throughout the year, such as the $1 fried rice sale at the business school and poster sales at Dunn Meadow and the Union to finance SSA's activities. -Hie gatherings also gave the Singapore students the Opportunity to exercise their language talents. They spoke different dialects such as Hokkien, Cantonese, Mandarin, Malay or Tamil besides English with fellow Sing,aporians.

Members ()Idle Balm) community came together to help each other "recharge their spiritual batteries," senior Michelle Stump said. Sophomore Jenna Hatch, the secretar y of the Baha'i Association, said the days of Ayyam-i-Ha "are very special for us and are specificall y days of hospitality, sharing and the giving of presents." The togetherness and sharing important to this holiday were evidence of the strong belief in unity integral to the Baha'i faith. The beliefs of Baha'i, its name derived from Arabic, meaning "follower of glory," included one God, the oneness of humankind, independent investigation of truth and the essential harmony of science and religion. The beliefs also included equality of men and women, eliminations of prejudice of all kinds, universal compulsory education, spiritual solutions to economic problems, a universal auxiliary language and universal peace

upheld by a world federation. The Baha'i faith, which began in 19th century Persia, followed the teachings of Baha'u'llah, a believed Manifestation of God. He taught religion as progressive. Stump said the idea was analogous to chapters in a book. Each of God's teachings built on the next, and all parts were necessary to grasp the larger understanding. For this reason, Baha'i considered all religions an integral part of their own faith. The y felt each religious movement contained an important part of the message sent by God. Unity was also an integral part of the Baha'i faith. This idea was also combined with recognition of the importance of diversit y and what can be learned from others. Baha'i believed in \\ hat were called "independent investigations of truth." They felt each individual had a responsibilit y to find truth tin themselves. Because of this, Baha'i had no religious clergy to interpret their scriptures. Members met to discuss what the writings meant to them and to share their individual interpretations with others, which resulted in the giving and taking of dif1Crent ideas. The association met biweekly to stud y Baha'i writings and to socialize. Members enjo yed sharing their ideas with each other and anyone interested in their faith. "It's a world embracing idea," Hatch said. "I feel like all of mankind is my famil y ." CI

The Baha'i Association was a religious group that believed in the unity of all religions. Group members were happy to discuss their faith with any interested person. Membership and meetings were open to all students, faculty and alumni.

The All-Campus Choruses celebrated its 10th anniversary this spring. In 1985 Dr. Michael Gordon, professor in the School of Music and, at that time, dean of students, originally founded the groups. The highlight of their season was the 10th anniversary concert, which took place April 27 at the Auditorium. The concert featured 250 combined voices, directed by Robert Tamborrino and was accompanied by the Mid-Coast Jazz Project, under the direction of Mark Buselli.

Stadium as 320 pairs of legs march in unison onto the football field. The Marching Hundred was an impressive sight as they performed energetically throughout the fall at home football games, but what appeared easy actuall y demanded a tremendous amount of effort. Kappa Kappa Psi, a national band service fraternity, was one of the many driving f()rces behind the Marching Hundred and all band programs. Kappa Kappa Psi's purpose was to aid band programs in any way possible. Frequently this included fund raising and service projects. From loading the Marching Hundred's equipment and luggage truck for away games to ushering at concert band performances to selling band merchandise, Kappa Kappa Psi did it all. "Basicall y , whatever the Hand directors want, the fraternity tries to accomplish it," Stephen Pratt, the faculty sponsor for the chapter, said.

A common Kappa Kappa Psi activity was raising money for expenses, such as band equipment. They sold T-shirts and sweatshirts, as well as videotapes of the Marching Hundred to students and the public. They also sponsored car washes to raise funds. These events, along with painted bridges on Jordan Avenue helped publicize the band program. Kappa Kappa Psi has also helped organize the publication of an annual that celebrated the 100 year anniversary of the Marching Hundred. "I like Kappa Kappa Psi because we have a purpose. It's not just social," junior Cody Gaither said. But Kappa Kappa Psi was more than just a group of people raising money. They were a family. "Kappa Kappa Psi put me under their wing when I first arrived at IU," said senior John O'Dell, president of Kappa Kappa Psi. "They made me feel at home as a freshman on IU's large campus." The average membership of Kappa Kappa Psi was anywhere from 30 to 45 people and during the school year, 34 students were involved with the fraternity. Any male can be a member as long as he had been involved with one of the bands, either the marching or concert band, for at least one semester.

The Board of Aeons acted in an advisory capacity to Kenneth Gros Louis, IUB chancellor, and President Myles Brand. It served as a forum for student discussion and provided an opportunity for the exchange of ideas on a broad range of topics concerning IU. The Board intended to constitute one of several channels of communication between students and administration. Recent projects included determining an appropriate balance between teaching and research, reviewing the freshman orientation program and organizing an endowment campaign for the University.

ew members, including, freshman to seniors, were initiated in the fall in late November and also two weeks before finals in the spring. O'Dell said pledge classes have varied through the years fi-om two to 21 students. "You can become closer friends because of the fraternity 's small size," Gaither said. Members demonstrated leadership qualities with 11 subcommittees ranging from finance to music education. Several members experienced authoritative roles as well. Members of Kappa Kappa Psi elected the leadership positions in December, and the offices lasted one year. Holding an office allowed members to interact with members from other Kappa Kappa Psi chapters at different universities. In April, O'Dell attended a three-day leadership conference in Michigan. "The conference is a time to get with other chapters and see how they do things," O'Dell said. "It's a chance for our chapter to improve and get new ideas about different projects." Kappa Kappa Psi was an all male fraternity; however, Tau Beta Sigma allowed female band members to become involved with aiding the band program also. Tau Beta Sigma, a national band service fraternity, and Kappa Kappa Psi worked over the years On several joint projects. Kappa Kappa Psi has supported bands from coast to coast since the earl y 1900s. Alpha Zeta, Ili's chapter of Kappa Kappa Psi, opened in the early 1930s and was one or the first national chapters. Alpha Zeta has been named one of the top 10 out of more than 300 chapters of Kappa Kappa Psi repeatedl y for outstanding performance as a Kappa Kappa Psi service fraternity. "Alpha Zeta has become very distinguished," Pratt said. Kappa Kappa Psi not only established a distinguished name for itself and provided support, the fraternity brought band members together and created lasting friendships.

in McNutt, putting together 800 Finals Survival Kits for students. "When we assemble them, we ask people from all the committees. We have dinner, a little pizza and pop. It's a little party ," sophomore Michael Korus, fund-raising director, said. The 15 members of the turd-raising committee, part of the larger Internal Relations Committee, spent the better part of the year talking to retailers, trying to find popcorn, candy bars and other items, such as Tylenol from the Health Center, to fill the kits. They also sent letters to parents to place orders. The finals kits funded all the activities sponsored by SAC, Korus said. The various activities SAC sponsored included Homecoming, Career Fair and Sibs Weekend. Junior Am y Ault, special events committee vice president, said the organization's goal was to "link students together and provide something tbr the future. We plan events tbr students and alumni." For Homecoming, the organization sponsored

events such as "Yell like Hell," a contest to see what organization or group had the best cheer, window painting, where groups decorated the windows of local businesses, and the parade. Ault said the responsibility tOr choosing an ILI graduate as grand marshal of the parade fell on SAC. The Alumni Association gave the special events committee a list of candidates, and then the committee chose their own candidates. Ault said each candidate was chosen to tie in with the Homecoming theme. "For Red Hot l the theme], which was about diversity, we wanted an African American," she said. The top choice was then invited to be grand marshal tiir the parade. Grand marshals included Francis Mustafa, 1994 Indiana Teacher of the Year and one of the four finalists for National Teacher of the Year, and Tiffany Storm, 1994 Miss Indiana. As part of the Alumni Association, SAC started in 1976 to promote student involvement and awareness of alumni activities. The group consisted of about 250 students, with six executive board members and 15 directors in live main committees. Ault joined the organization because she wanted to get involved on campus. "I was a director, and I wanted to continue, do something higher. It's a great organization." El

the center would receive a year-long lease, in hopes that the University would help make needed repairs to the Sunflower building. Sunflower had been without a lease since July 1994.

hen thinking of the facilities IU has to offer, some students and faculty consider its library system, computer cluster W access and sports stadiums. Most people don't think of IU for its day care offerings. But with the large number of students, faculty and staff in one area, these groups need options to care for their children while they are studying or working. Two day cares, one run on University property, the other by the city of Bloomington, provided care for the children of students and staff. They also provided jobs for these two groups. The Sunflower Day Care Co-op, located on East 11th Street, provided care exclusively for the children of staff and students. In contrast to the University-run center were Kid City and Tykes Town, two child care programs within the city. They had about 37-39 percent of their participants from students or staff, Bonnie Davis, director of recreation and founder of Kid City, said. They also hired students to work with the children. Kid City employed students to help, particularly in the summer months. Sophomore Erika Strawn, an elementary education major, worked at Kid City, a

ob that tied into her future career. "I'm teaching kids different things whether it's specified or not." Aside from their IU connections, the centers contrasted sharply in some areas. One seemed to be fading, while the other was constantly growing. At the small Sunflower house, a dozen or more young children pla yed with toys and watched "Sesame Street." Students, who were also parents, volunteered to work at the center in exchange for being able to leave their children there for the day. Sunflower was one of only a few remaining day care co-ops in the Bloomington area. Day care co-ops gained popularity in the 1960s and 1970s. Founded in 1968, Sunflower helped families connected with the University take care of their children. Parents worked at the center to reduce the overall day care costs for their children. Unfortunately, Sunflower Day Care Co-op faced health and safety concerns. The building had become run down over time, and the University did not funnel many resources toward improvements. TJ Jones, a parent of a child who formerly attended Sunflower, worked there and was one of the system's senior members. Jones worked with the IU real estate office to try to secure a lease and repairs fbr the center. "We've been without a lease since July," Jones said. "We've been trying to get the building remodeled. It's more maintenance than we can do ourselves." She was optimistic an agreement about a lease with the University would be reached. "It makes us nervous because it put us in a state of limbo about making any decisions," Jones said. It was difficult to pinpoint a reason for the decline of day care co-ops in the past two decades. Whatever the reason may be, many Bloomington residents explored alternative da y care options. One of these alternatives was a program run by the city called Kid City. Kid City was a child care program offered on school holidays when parents might still have to work, as several staff members do. On these school holidays, about 60 children gathered at the Jukebox Center near Third Street park. Instead of sitting in a building playing with toys, the Kid City program emphasized leisure education, Darren Hurley, youth area services director, said. Children in the program learned about and

visited local businesses in the area. Field trips included visiting the police and fire departments, exploring the Gritty Lake area and exercising at Downtown Fit. The program was able to offer these options because of its affiliation with the city, Davis said. She credited the development of the program to Bloomington Mayor Tomi Allison. "It was actually a vision the mayor had 1br years. A lot of kids need an alternative to day care," Davis said. To insure children became interested in the program, the lbunding members of Kid City designed a children's council to help choose the programs. In order to teach group cooperation, the children in the program voted on the council members and activities. Hurley said the staff at the Bloomington Parks and Recreation Department believed the Kid City program was so successful, it spawned a counterpart tbr younger children called Tykes Town. Tykes Town cared for seven to 11 children everyday from 9 a.m.-1 p.m., Teresa Browne, Tykes Town program coordinator, said. Tykes Town was set up like "a whole little town

kel.

where children arc able to learn, expand and use their creativity in the world," Browne said. Rather than going on field trips like Kid City, Tykes Town invited members of the community into the center. Several themes such as the grocery store, rules and safety, transportation and music were simulated at Tykes Town. Participants in both the Sunflower Day Care and Kid City/Tykes Town program believed their center offered significant benefits to children. Debbie Jones sent her daughter to Sunflower Day Care. "It's one of the best kind of day cares to put your kid in if you have the time [to help at the center]," she said. "This is like a second family, a home away from home." Aside from the feeling of family, Caroline Ansari said she believed the center offers other benefits. "We like it, and our children like it. We have a say in who takes care of our children," Ansari said. "The fact that it's $60 a month hasn't hurt either." The two day cares' most meaningful connection to IU may be the desire to educate. While the University educates adults, these programs worked to educate children in various ways. Kid City offered children the chance to learn through recreation, Davis said. "They are able to broaden their knowledge of the community and learn more about themselves." Education was formally prescribed at Kid City through community interaction. But members of Sunflower said learning experiences also existed at their center. Jones said she liked the diversity of culture her daughter encountered. "My daughter gets familiar with different cultures [because of the children of different ethnicities at the center]," she said. Jones said she learned a lot, too. "Before I came to day care, I thought I hated kids, and kids hated me," she said. But after her experience caring for children, Jones said, "They're willing to learn and grow," she said. "They like to speak their minds." The greatest contrast between the two centers rested in their future. Kid City was gearing up for the summer months when the attendance rose to 240 children a day. Sunflower faced a battle for space, repairs and dedicated members. Still, education for both children and their parents was the common thread. "A lot of learning goes on here," Davis said. "A lot."

community, as well as to achieve academic excellence in the new Thomas I. Atkins Living Learning, Center. "Indiana has a low retention rate of minority students, and we want programs designed to help keep students here for four years," said Floyd L.Worley, coordinator for Residence Life at Ashton residence hall, where the Atkins center was located. "We want them to work together in groups ... so when they leave the center, they can use their knowledge gained in this experience to excel in other leadership endeavors." Students, who felt the center was a necessity, first construed the idea to have an Afro-centric living center. Because of their determination, a board was formed to present ideas for a proposal. The proposal board included members of the Black Student Advisory Council and administrators. Kathryn M. Tracy , the coordinator for Residence Life at Briscoe residence center, said, "The learning center is basically a facilitator in giving students the opportunity to learn about the African Americans who have been successful here

and beyond their years at IU." Tracy , a member of the committee, worked with the board and directors of other universities including Rutgers University, which presented a thorough, well-researched proposal similar to the program at IU. "We visited Rutgers University's AfricanAmerican center and basically took some of their ideas and incorporated them into what our goals and expectations were of our center. We are setting the standards and believe steps toward these goals have been accomplished," said junior Jamilla Dunigan, a member on the proposal committee. Senior La Ionia Mosby read a pamphlet on the center and decided to become a part of it. "I really like it because you are in an environment where students experience the same things you do. It gives me the chance to share my personal feelings with other students." Programs encouraged residents to develop close ties between each other and the community. Residents took trips to Free Town Village, Chicago and the graveyard of the Civil War Veterans. "I would want residents to be able to say the Thomas I. Atkins Center is a great place to live, because, to me, we are one small family facing the same dilemma," Dunigan said. "If I have accomplished that, then I have happil y pursued my No. 1 goal in fi-mulating the center." El

read residents give garage stop sign by carin burmeister

countless efforts of Read Center's student government and its residents, construction fbr a two-level parking garage began in early May. "There was nothing we could really do," said sophomore Doug Moore, president of Read. "By the time we started to act, it had already been approved." In October 1994, the Board of Trustees approved plans for the Read parking garage, which dated back to the '60s. The garage plans contained 650 "A" or pay spots, Doug Porter, manager of University Parking Operations, said. With the money Parking Operations collected from the campus parking garages, meters and tickets, it funded the $3.8 million project. Students first heard rumors in the spring of '94 about replacing the old Read parking lot with a parking garage, but rumors were not confirmed until Moore contacted administrators in the fall. Read residents opposed the new parking garage for a variety of reasons. The most prominent objection students voiced was the safety hazard the garage would create. Students complained the parking garage would increase the already busy intersection of Seventh Street and Jordan Avenue. A police officer was alread y needed at this location to direct traffic during rush hours and special events. "Jordan Avenue is already difficult enough to cross with the existing amount of traffic," said Jay Bhatt, Read's director of executive affairs. Bhatt, a sophomore, said the fear of late night assaults and vandalism with a large, poorly lit parking garage also concerned students. "The parking garage will he safer than the parking lot is now," Porter said. "More people will be around with the garage and telephones will be installed." The telephones would not only contain a key pad to make local calls in case of car trouble, but also a button that would automatically dial the police in an emergency situation. As well as leaving three sides of the garage open to prevent people from hiding in the garage, he also said an attendant would be on duty to collect the parking fees, similar to other pay lots. Other student concerns ranged from the exorbitant cost of the garage to the loss of 62 "Dl" parking spots that would only compound the

previous parking problem. Students also voiced complaints about the unattractiveness of the parking garage. "With the garage being built in such a prominent location on campus, man y residents and prospective students will not be able to avoid the eyesore of a large cement parking garage," Bhatt said. Moving the parking garage to where the Teter/Wright parking lot stood, located further from the center of campus, was considered, but Parking Operations quickly rejected the alternative. "With the School of Education, the MAC, the Auditorium and the admissions office, there is a great need for parking on the east side of campus," Porter said. He agreed the other parking lot was perhaps a better site for the garage, considering the looks of the structure, but there was not a demand for extra parking there. "We can't move the need," he said. The Read student government's first action was to inform residents by an e-mail campaign and a petition, which accumulated more than 700 signatures from Read residents and other concerned students. Despite the effbrt, the petition created little response from the administration. In mid-November, about 60 students participated in a protest against the parking garage. With phrases like "A Parking Garage is a Purdue Thing To Do" and "Honk if You Hate the Garage," students marched for hours on the corner of Seventh Street and Jordan Avenue in protest. This small demonstration provided a good way to educate other students about what the administrators were planning to do and also gave more students a chance to sign the petition. The protest, however, did not upset Porter. He felt it was fine for students to express their feelings. "1 think it was a success," Moore said. "It let administrators know we were upset." In direst response to the protest, the Read government and University administrators conducted an "open forum" to discuss the parking garage. Twelve to 15 students and 10 administrators participated in the discussion. "Both sides listened to each other. It was very informative," Moore said. Porter also expressed a positive attitude concerning the open forum. "It was a good opportunity for a one-on-one discussion." The efforts of students did not go unnoticed, but it was hard to sway the administration's opinions about the new parking garage after the Board of Trustees approved it. ni

Frank-N-Furter, played by sophomore David Ehle, entertains the crowd at the Rocky Horror Picture Show. The Nov. 18 performance in Collins cafeteria raised money for Bloomington's sister city, Posoltega, Nicaragua, as well as collected canned food for local needy.

and long evening gloves. With his campy mixture of masculinity and femininity, Frank stole the show. He had a penchant for musclemen and by an accidental discovery, he created a living man. Frank described his creation in his lyrics: He'll do press-ups and chin-ups Do the snatch, clean and jerk. He thinks d ynamic tension must be hard work. Such strenuous living I just don't understand. When in just seven days — oh baby I can make von a man. Both curious movie-goers and Etithful fans bombarded Collins cafeteria the evening of Nov. 18 to see the Rocky Horror Picture Show. The enthusiasm for Rocky Horror had not fhded since its opening in Los Angeles 20 years ago. About 350 people occupied the cafeteria's tables, chairs and floor. Junior Ming Chiang described it as "Woodstock without mud and rain." Rocky Horror first timers were marked with a big red "V," for "virgins," on their cheeks at the

door. The crowd sent cheers and noise pounding from the cafeteria before the show started. As the title and bright red lascivious lips appeared, the crowd settled in for some serious noise. Junior Matt AuBuchon said, "I thought onl y a few people were going to be shouting out. Sometimes everybody was screaming out so loud, you couldn't hear the movie at all." Union Board, Collins Student Government, Residence Halls Association and the Cheshire Cafe sponsored the event. All monetary proceeds from the show were donated to Posoltega, Nicaragua, Bloomington's sister cit y since 1988. Canned food collected was distributed throughout Bloomington. Survival kits including rice, confetti, toast, toilet paper, cards and water to throw at different times of the show, were available at the show. Senior Jennifer Bookout was impressed with the audience's actions. "It was amazing to see everybody do the exact same thing at the exact same time It was like in a historical sense, these things had been lined up and laid out." Every character in the show responded to Frank principally, so the story virtually ended when Frank died. Ehle said, "If we had an offer for another place to do it and the funding to get the movie and everything, we'd definitely do it again." El

Late on a Thursday night in March, one of Teter's laundry rooms is unusually quiet. A new token system was installed second semester to improve laundry room conditions, including overcrowding and unreliable machines.

like August. Most students met each other in disbelief, expecting everyone to be elsewhere on a Friday night, but the laundry rooms' overcrowding problem during daylight hours and week nights, only compounded by slow, overworked machines, left students no other choice but to stay home if they wanted clean clothes for the weekend. Seeking a solution, the Halls of Residence changed its laundr y operations second semester. For the first time in more than a decade, a wash was raised from 25 to 50 cents and a dry from 10 to 25 cents. The machines also switched from coin operation to a token system. But many students found the price increase unthir. Sophomore Lisa Levin, a Teter resident, said, "They jacked up the prices and didn't make the machines any better. The dryers especially are in awful condition. It takes three or four cycles to do your clothes." W.H. Walters Ill, assistant director of housing and assignments, felt the cost hike was reasonable

and necessary. "The prices are extremely loss compared to other off-campus facilities. We need the extra revenue to pay for new washers and dryers," Walters said. Although residents also opposed the switch to the token system, which required purchasing tokens at the dorms' center store or front desk, Walters said the advantages of its implementation outweighed it inconveniences. Many students were unsatisfied with the arrangement. "I went to the center store to buy tokens and it was closed. Then I went up to the desk and it was closed, too, so I wasn't able to get my laundry done, and it was the onl y free time I had to do it," sophomore Shannon Howe said. Walters said extra tokens could be purchased ahead of time. Since the tokens were destroyed when inserted into each machine, they would "free our maintenance staff from collecting coins and increase the time they can spend servicing the washers and dryers," he said. Tokens also discouraged non-residents from using the laundry facilities in the dorms. Optimistically, the token system was successfully implemented in Collins a few years earlier. Junior Emil y Clossin, president of Collins, said, "Our residents are very happy with the tokens. I feel like it's a good system." in

Halls of Kesidence Director Larry Gaffney addresses senior Dan Watanapongse and about two dozen other students in the Halls of Kesidence office. The students held a sit-in Feb. 15 to voice their concerns regarding the lack of student involvement in the decision-making process of dorm issues.

high point of frustration with Halls of Residence officials in late winter. Officers of these dormitories voiced their dissatisfaction by claiming the Halls of Residence had made numerous decisions without consulting the residents. After much discussion at President Council Meetings, Residence Hall presidents, along with the Residence Halls Association, decided to organize a sit-in to demonstrate their frustration. Senior Dan Watanapongsc, RHA president said, "A week and a half before the protest, we planned it out. My role was to try to make sure that we had students there and to make sure the administrators were also there. It was a group effort from everyone in RHA to put the protest together." On the afternoon of Feb. 15, about 20 student government officials, including Watanapongse and several residence hall presidents, arrived at the Halls of Residence office, 801 N. Jordan Ave. They carried signs reading "Welcome to the Halls of Deficit" and "The buck stops here." They presented letters outlining their complaints to Halls of Residence Director Larry Gaffney and then sat in the lobby to wait for a response. After reading the letters, Gaffney talked with the students about their complaints that revolved primarily around the Halls of Residence's plans to cut their budget deficit. The Halls had already implemented a new laundry token system, which students claimed was put into effect without substantial warning. Students were also upset about the proposed closing of the Ashton cafeteria, which was supposedly made without student input. Gaffney, on the other hand, felt students were not so well-founded in their complaints. He hoped to explain that what the Halls were doing regarding the laundry system and Ashton cafeteria was being done to help reduce costs and keep student rental fees lower. He specifically pointed out that the

reason for the proposed cafeteria closing was low occupancy. Gaffney also viewed the students' visit to the Halls of Residence as more of a discussion of their concerns. He said, "It was not a sit-in. Twenty or 30 people came up to discuss the issue." Students had a much different perspective. "The message we were trying to convey to the Halls was that the students really would like to see some changes that make living in the halls better. We want to be involved in the decisions that affect our homes. We also want to work with them to achieve these improvements," Watanapongse said. Gaffney, however, felt students had sufficient opportunity to communicate through meetings with him and his staff. He said, "Nothing gets done without thorough discussion." Junior Ben Turner, vice president of Read, said although the talks were helpful, the atmosphere of the sit-in was tense and awkward. He said Gaffney addressed the students, but, in his opinion, did not settle anything. "Gaffney didn't exactly answer our questions. He only tried to subdue us," he said. After the sit-in, a compromise was reached to keep the Ashton cafeteria open for lunch and dinner Monday through Friday, but closed f6r breakfast. Laundry tokens were made more accessible to students by being sold at all of the centers' front desks and center stores. Because of these changes, student government officials were optimistic about the effects of the sit-in. "They've given us access to the budget and a larger say in what happens," sophomore Doug Moore, president of Read, said. Watanapongse also agreed the changes were a step in the right direction. He also added that, ironically, relations between RHA and Halls of Residence had improved since the protest. "It seems like the Halls arc listening a little bit more now. The reason relations have gotten better is because the student dissatisfaction is now out in the open," Watanapongsc said. "There is no reason to hide our concerns. We didn't change their thinking overnight, but we laid down the groundwork that students want to be a part of the decision-making process." El

cory Johnson Walking into senior Cory Johnson's dorm room, one can see subtle adaptations and changes. A doorbell has been placed outside her door. But instead of ringing, the doorbell sets off a bright flashing light. A small motorized block, hooked up to Cory's lamp and alarm clock, is under her pillow. A device looking like a small computer sits next to the phone. For Cory, the modifications in her room are very important. She is deaf. "I view myself as a person who happens to have a disability," Cory said. "My disability helps describe me, but it is not who or what I am. I am Cory first and always will be." Cory's life started to change her junior year in high school when she was diagnosed with systemic lupus erythematosus, commonly called lupus. The chronic and incurable disease causes the immune system to become hyperactive and forms antibodies that attack the body. A half million Americans are afflicted with the disease; 80 percent of whom are women. Menial tasks, such as walking, sitting and sleeping became difficult fbr Cory. Her muscles and joints began to hurt. Lupus affected her hearing, vision and heart. Various doctors monitor Cory, who takes three types of medication that can cause glaucoma and damage her kidneys and bones. After living with lupus for three years, Cory's hearing started to decline, a rare condition of the disease. A freshman in college at the time, Cory did not realize she needed help with her hearing loss until second semester. Her hearing left completely at the age of 22. For Cory, the scariest time was between the ages of 19 and 22. "My hearing fluctuated a lot," she said. "I never knew if it was going to leave for good or if it was going to come back. I didn't know what to expect." She began taking sign language classes, still believing her hearing would return. Cory's support system, which included her family and friends, helped encourage her. Today she can read lips, use sign language and speak. "I used to be shy before I lost my hearing, but now I love to talk," Cory said. "When you don't have any hearing, you have to rely on your visual cues and instincts," Cory said. "Sometimes my mind is

preoccupied. I might walk across the street and forget that the people don't know I'm deaf. I've had a lot of near-misses." Cory's day-to-day activities were no easy task, but she looked at her situation in a positive light. "There are times when I feel frustrated and wonder, 'What's the use?'" Cory said. "But then I realize that some things are worth fighting for. This is m y life. Everyone is given their own little burden to bear, and this is my load. My relationship with God is the central part of my life. If I didn't have that, I probably couldn't cope." "Cory's beliefs are very strong," agreed Cory's roommate, sophomore Nealey Vickery. "She has a great relationship with God and is encouraging to me. When I feel like complaining, I look at her and see what she has to go through every day. Simply making a phone call takes a long time and can be a hassle." Cory, who originally double majored in fine arts and psychology, decided to major in psychology only. "Being hearing-impaired, I'm always in a crunch time-wise," she said. "Art takes a tremendous amount of time. When I start a project, I get involved with it and want to finish it all at once. But I don't have enough time." An interpreter signs for Cory in her classes, and students take notes for her. Because she spent class watching the interpreter, she couldn't take her own notes. "I spend a lot of time reviewing the notes people have written and making sure I undersand the material," she said. "I still enjoy music to a small extent," Cory said, her brown eves shining. "Sometimes I touch the piano while someone plays, and I can feel the vibrations. It feels really good. It's the closest I get to really feeling what the music sounds like." "I do have music in my head," said Cory. "Sometimes I wake up in the morning to music, and I hit my alarm clock and then I remember I'm deaf. I think, 'God is waking me up!' It is really neat to me that God has kept the music in my mind."

changes offer more chances for rushees

by erin leigh Stevens With the intention of making formal sorority rush easier for rushees, members of the Panhellenic Association restructured preference night. They hoped that by giving rushees an opportunity to visit one more sorority on preference night, it

would reduce the stress of formal rush. In the past, a rushee only visited two houses on preference night. The change allowed rushees to visit three. Panhellenic was trying to cut down on the amount of 'a omen who were disappointed by the outcome of rush. But statistics agreed with those from previous years. "The goal of the Panhellenic Association when they added a third party on preference night was to place more women into the greek system. Although the statistics do not show that it happened this year, I think that it 'a ill happen eventually," senior Dana Svajgr, Panhellenic vice president of rush, said. Although this change did not directly affect the statistics, some women found it easier to choose a sorority to pledge. "Having one more house to go to on preference night gave me a better opportunit y to find a house that I really wanted to pledge," sophomore Lori Reed, pledge at Delta Delta Delta, said. Svajgr believed that in two or three years, more women will have an opportunity to join the greek system. "Everything needs to run its course. We just need to give this change sonic time to have an impact on rush," Svajgr said. Contrary to previous years, two rounds of parties were held before winter break instead of one round. Man y sororities experienced difficulties starting rush in October. Senior Tricia Thompson, Delta Zeta rush chair, said, "We had a lot of girls that could not participate in the rush weekends because of prior campus commitments." A major advantage of starting rush early was the lenghtening of sorority members' semester breaks. "It was nice to get two I rounds of] parties out of the way before break. We did not have to come back so early in January," Thompson said. The Panhellenic Association hoped to continue its efforts in restructuring rush until more women are placed into the greek system. "Everybody is trying to make t he process easier for the rushee," Thompson said.

record-breaking results by kiln yagodnik The greek system combined determination, cooperation and fun to raise a record breaking $6,000 for The United Way of Monroe County. The crowds gathered to watch greeks participate in Greekfest 1994, held the last week of September.

Sam Riche A participant competes in the limbo contest at Greekfest. Greekfest, held at Dunn Meadow, brought all greek chapters together, and the event raised $6,000 for The United Way of Monroe County. During the three-legged race at Greeklest, juniors Christy Schlake and Lori Matulis of Alpha Phi compete against other pairs. Schlake and Matulis won their heat in the competition.

For more than 10 years, members of the greek system have participated in Greekfest. This annual, week-long philanthropic event benefits the United Way of Monroe County. Senior Kristin Gauthier, Panhellenic vice president of inter-greek affairs, said, "This was the most successful Greckfest ever, participationwise and monetarily. We had beautiful weather all week, and a large amount of people from each chapter participated." The most successful part of Greekfest was the lecture "Friendship in the Age of AIDS" presented by alumni Joel Goldman and TJ Sullivan. Goldman, former president of the Sigma Alpha Mu chapter, had tested HIV positive. He and Sullivan, his best friend and a fbunding father of IU's chapter of Pi Kappa Phi, traveled to college campuses to educate students on the dangers of mixing alcohol and sexual relations. "The speech was very moving and it made me realize how close to home these issues really were," senior Rebecca Chesler, member of Alpha Delta Pi, said. About 750 people filled Whittenburg Auditorium to hear this compelling speech. Other Greekfest activities included a dinner exchange between sororities and fraternities, several sports tournaments and a Miss-A-Meal sponsored by Pizza Express and Coca-Cola. A Greekfest king and queen were chosen based on the amount of money that they individually raised for The United Way. Senior Andrew Haverkampf of Delta Chi and senior Am y Craig of Phi Mu captured the crowns by together raising more than $400. Haverkampf said, "If it was not for the hard work of Delta Chi and Phi Mu [their pair for the event], I never would have been chosen." Not only did Greekfest bring members of other chapters together, it also helped bring together members of the same chapter. Sophomore Heather Anderson, Alpha Chi Omega, said, "It was a nice way for all of the chapters to come together and show the entire campus that we do a lot of good for others." El

In his apartment at Walnut Knolls, sophomore Steve MacLaughlin, president of Tau Kappa Epsilon, takes care of fraternity business. Because of a lack of space, not all greek chapters lived in houses, which sometimes made it difficult for those chapters to attract new members.

small chapters try to attract members by ken foo When Tau Kappa Epsilon president Steve MacLaughlin has to contact his brothers about an upcoming event, he can't run up and down the halls to call f6r a chapter meeting. He has to let his fingers do the walking and get on the phone. Like many other smaller chapters on campus, members of TKE do not live in a fraternity house. Many smaller fraternities on campus did not have designated housing. Another chapter was the Kappa Delta Rho fraternity whose 14 actives and 11 pledges lived in various apartments and dorms around Bloomington. The absence of a fraternity house could really hurt a chapter when it was trying to attract new members. "A house is a great asset during rush because many of the freshmen looked at the house itself," said senior Jose Ignacio, Kappa Delta Rho rush chair. Having a designated house gave a fraternity a definite location to hold social functions and stage philanthropic events. The events were easy to plan because the locations are so recognizable. Junior David Penna, a pledge at Sigma Phi

Epsilon, said that housing was a factor when rushing but by far, not the onl y factor affecting a rushee's decision. Penna said he chose his fraternity "mainly because of the strong brotherhood." "Having a house is important because living with your brothers is a big part of being in a fraternity," he said. He also felt a well-maintained house provides a more conducive academic environment. Tau Kappa Epsilon was also a smaller fraternity that consisted of more than 30 actives and about 12 pledges. MacLaughlin, a sophomore, said his fraternity was "exploring the possibility of acquiring the former Sigma Kappa sorority house." But senior Elizabeth Armstrong, a member of Sigma Kappa sorority, said the national chapter of Sigma Kappa was looking to sell the house instead of leasing it to another fraternity or sorority. MacLaughlin said, "Tau Kappa Epsilon is also looking to raise funds to build a new house." There were some advantages to living off campus instead of in a house. MacLaughlin said, "Smaller fraternities can offer the best of both worlds. Our members can have the benefits that come along with being greek as well as the independence of living in an apartment."

high price to pay for greekness by sara brazeal

wave a tearful goodbye to their dorm, they had to pay a fee to the Halls of Residence for breaking their dorm contract. Students who left the dorms at the beginning, of the year paid $700 to break their dorm contract. This was a $300 increase from the previous year. Students who left the dorms at the end of the first semester paid a $425 charge, a $150 increase. Director of Halls of Residence Larry Gaffney said he and the Campus Housing Committee believed the past charges for breaking a contract were "tar too lenient." He said, "When someime signs up [to live in the dorm I, we save space, buy tOod and plan staff for them." Although Gaffney pointed out that IU's charges were still among the lowest in the Big Ten, many greek chapters were unhappy with the fees.

Phi Kappa Psi President Dan Goodman said, "It's expensive. I think the problem and big concern is try ing to plan out who is moving, in." Goodman, a senior, said there was little change in the amount of people moving into the chapter's house. "The increase has not totally stopped people from moving into the fraternity houses mid-year," Phi Gamma Delta President Mike Kaplan said. Kaplan, a senior, thought that the University will keep increasing the fees until the cost prohibits fraternities from moving pledges in during the year. Both Phi Kappa Psi and Phi Gamma Delta pay the entire cost for new members to break housing contracts. But smaller chapters face a large problem in coming up \\ ith the cash to break members' dorm contracts. Junior Brandon Sieg, president of Alpha Sigma Phi, said, "We're hurt in the fact that even though we move guys in the house, we are losing money off of them because of the fee." Even though moving pledges in the house brings the fraternity more money , the increase in dorm tees has caused a loss in housing funds. in

Junior Jim Jackson of Sigma Nu spends an afternoon playing with kids from the Boys' & Girls' Club. Besides Sigma Nu, members from greek chapters such as Delta Chi, Alpha Xi Delta and Pi Beta Phi volunteered their time to tutor or just to play with the kids from the Club.

providing consistent companionship by sara brazeal

A child sits quietly in a large room. It is 3 p.m., Tuesday, and she is waiting for a special friend who comes every week at this time to play with her or tutor her. The friend wears a sweatshirt with strange looking letters, but the young girl does not mind. For children who need someone the y can count on, this special friend provides some much needed consistency. Playing with children while acting as an adult leader was an opportunit y that many greek chapters embraced through their work at the Bloomington Bo ys' & Girls' Club. Bob Harrmann, Bo ys' & Girls' Club director, said the organization attracts 150 children per day, six days a week. To help provide tutoring, guidance and planning special events, the Club relied on about 120 student volunteers. Harrmann said about half of these volunteers came from IU's greek system. "They come and help supervise dances and parties," he said. "We get a lot of help from the greek system." The Delta Chi fraternity had been very involved with the Club. Sophomore Chad Norman, Delta Chi philanthropy chair, said the national chapter of Delta Chi started working with different Boys' &

Girls' Clubs two years ago. "It's a great organization to work with because they I don't receive] much through large local contributions," Norman said. Working with the Club gave the fraternit y the opportunit y to make a serious impact on the community. The week before Halloween, Delta Chi sponsored a Haunted House and donated the proceeds to the Club. Norman said the chapter donated $1,500. The Club awarded Delta Chi with the 1994 Student Organization of the Year award. Sophomore Tanya Manadee, Alpha Xi Delta philanthropy chair, said her house got involved with the Bo y s' & Girls' (lib through the Panhellenic Association's "Adopt-An-Agency" program. Manadee said, "The kids get reall y close, really fast." Alpha Xi Delta worked with children from the low-income Crestmont area. She said the kids were happy to have someone to pal around with because many of their parents have to work long hours. Although the events were fun for the kids, Harrmann said the most important thing volunteers can give the children was "consistency and predictability." "It is someone these kids can count on," he said. "Some kids don't have someone that they can count on in their lives." VI

declining membership forces chapter to reorganize •

brought in 13 members. This drop in membership prompted the chapter to reorganize. "With the outcomes of rush, we did not have as many new members as we would have liked," said graduate student Katie Walsh, the chapter's adviser. "What we needed was something new and something different." Walsh said the reorganization was not needed to keep the chapter afloat but simpl y to give it a new look. "Our numbers are fine. We're more concerned with the future," she said. "We really want to give A011 a new face on campus. We think it's important to reintroduce to the campus what AOH is reall y about." Junior Tania Tawil, the chapter's president, said the sorority was looking for a new image. "We're looking fPr enthusiasm, energy, positive thinking and positive attitudes," she said. "We're looking to make a difference and to make this chapter live up to its potential." Walsh said failure to live up to its potential was one reason fbr the chapter's unsuccessful formal rush, through which only 10 women pledged. "Because of a lot of internal strains that were being reflected externall y , the chapter was not able to unction at a level needed to recruit new members," she said. "You're fighting an uphill battle when there are factors that you cannot control." Tawil said the chapter's rush week seemed to have been going very well, but the end results proved otherwise. "We were getting very high returns," she said. "We thought that we had a really great rush at the time, but in retrospect, I think we could have been more enthusiastic." Walsh said the chapter members believed gaining new members through a reorganization,

rather than by participating in open rush, was in their best interest. The chapter began its reorganization by offering active members the option of changing their status from active to alumnae. Walsh said those who elected to become alumnae did so because they were unable to give their lull energy to the reorganization process. Alumnae members remained in the house and participated in activities that involved alumnae. Walsh said she was pleased with the women who decided to keep their active status. "I'm excited about the group that has elected to remain," she said. "We have a good group to work with." The week long Aon plan was comprised of three stages — presentations, interviews and a reception — before bids were extended. Women who attended the presentations, put on by the chapter's national headquarters, had the option of signing up fbr interviews. Walsh said the interviews were more intbrmational than evaluative and gave women the chance to learn more about the sororit y and to ask any questions they had. The reorganization ended with an informal reception at the chapter's house, which gave women the chance to look around the house and meet the members. The chapter offered bids to women with whom the chapter felt personified the sorority's principles. "We are looking for women who exemplify A011 standards and who want to be a part of the sisterhood and the ideals we're looking fbr," Walsh said. "We're not under extreme pressure to open membership for all. We're going to be selective." Walsh said 13 new members were selected during the reorganization process. The chapter received significant support for its efforts from the campus and the greek community. "The Panhellenic groups were ver y supportive. I am amazed at how much support they have given us," she said. "So far, the campus is being very receptive and very helpful. All signs are very helpful." in

found itself in quite a predicament in January. "We were investigating a report of inappropriate pledge activities ... and we took appropriate action," said Bob Biggs, the fraternity's national executive vice president. Indirectl y related to the investigation was the resignation of the chapter's president, senior Chris Salisbury . He said his resignation was of his own accord, and the chapter was without a leader because it was in a transitional period. All active members of the fraternity were placed on alumni status, Salisbury said, although he had no commen t on why the change was made and whether it was related to the investigation. After the investigation concluded, all of the members were given their active status back. Dean of Students Richard McKaig said the chapter was not under investigation by the University . Senior Matt Dalton, president of the Intel-fraternity Council, said the chapter remained in good standing with IFC. After about three weeks, the Phi Delta Theta national organization ended its investigation. But, the chapter did not get awa y unscathed. Although all chapter members were returned to active status, the inquiry prompted a reorganization of the chapter, the main impact of which was felt in the

mandating by nationals of a substance-free chapter house. Salisbury said the action, aimed at banning alcohol from the house, was implemented because of the investigation and because "it seems to be a trend as far as greek houses on campus go." Senior Adam Kitchell, who was elected as the chapter's new president near the end of the investigation, said a few members had moved out of the house because of the new polic y . "There have been some who have moved out, but prett y much everyone's in accordance with it," he said. "They realize this is something we have to follow." Salisbury said the reorganization has affected the chapter's pledge program. "We have changed our pledgeship," he said. "It's going to be run in accordance with national b y laws." Salisbury had no comment about the previous pledge program and whether or not it violated national bylaws. The effects of the reorganization on the chapter cannot be predicted, Salisbur y said. "I'm not sure what the effect will be. It remains to be seen," he said. "The direction this chapter has taken is a direction most of the chapters on this campus will be taking in the next few y ears. I hope the effects are positive ones." Kitchell said the attitude around the house was positive following the end of the investigation and the announcement of the chapter's reorganization. Salisbury said the chapter was glad the investigation had concluded. "The house is back to normal," he said. "We're relieved that it's over." El

"The new program sounds like a good idea to keep people from drinking and driving and to try and push for more designated drivers," sophomore Janet Freeland, president of Alpha Delta Pi, said. The greek chapters were given enough cards to be distributed to 40 percent of their membership. For example, if a chapter had 100 members, then the y received 40 cards. "Our president made an announcement about the cards. If WC were interested, we were welcome to get them from her. Personall y , I got my card from Panhellenic," senior Alvssa Hunt, Alpha Gamma Delta, said. A person did not have to be greek to get a designated driver card. Greeks funded and distributed the cards, but the cards were available for all students over the age of 21 at the IFC/Panhellenic Association Office at the Union.

The idea for the program started in the Major Issues Committee of the IFC President's Council. They enlisted the support of six local bars lbr the program. In exchange for providing free drinks, Kilroy's Bar-n-Grill, Kilroy's Sports Bar, Yogi's, BW-3, Nick's English Hut and Bear's Place received benefits from the program. The front of the cards featured their logos, and participating bars profited from tax breaks and decreased liability. "The designated driver cards are a great gesture on the part of the sponsor establishments. It is worth it for a bar to pay fbr a free coke to save a life," Horowitz said. The inspiration fbr the cards was based on Ball State University's designated driver card program. Installed in December 1993, it was an immediate success. Adam Mildred, Delta Chi's graduate adviser, was the former president of Ball State's student government. He was in charge of the development of their program. A law student, Mildred realized the impact that a designated driver program could have at this school. "If an y thing, hopefull y it will make people think beibre they drink," he said. Using Ball State's program as an example, Mildred introduced the idea to IFC. With the help of senior Craig Wiley, former president of Delta Chi and a member of the Major Issues Committee, IFC had no trouble putting the program into effect. Wiley said, It [the card] promotes responsible drinking in the greek system. I think that it is good for the greet: image. The greek s ystem has such a negative image when it comes to alcohol. HopefUll y , this will help." Ei

During IU Sing, senior Ati Eframian of Kappa Kappa Gamma and sophomore Ryan MacCauley of Sigma Phi Epsilon put the finishing touch on their performance of "Love in Aisle Six." Before campus events such as IU Sing, fraternities and sororities serenaded each other.

Kevin Stuart

showing off for a pair by megan ladage and amy sokoloff Crammed in a two foot space, "Tiffany" wondered if it was worth it to dance in front of a whole fraternity house full of wild, screaming guys. Then she remembered that they needed to get a pair for Little 500. Showing off their spirit in the chaos, sororities and fraternities serenaded each other to choose a pair for Homecoming, IU Sing and Little 500. Fraternities and sororities involved members of the chapter on the decision as to which chapters to serenade. Most chapters serenaded seven probable pairs, and one of these serenades was usually a courtesy serenade. The object of a courtesy serenade was not to obtain a pair, but to show appreciation for chapters that could not be chosen as a pair. Sophomore Chris Thomas, serenade chair for Delta Tau Delta, said, "We do courtesy serenades to show appreciation for our pairs from earlier in the year. They are a lot of fun. Their purpose is to keep interest and good relations with other houses." Each house had its own way of selecting participants for the serenades. Some of these options included trying out, volunteering or basing it on traditions, such as always having the pledges or

seniors participate. "I volunteered to try out for the serenade. I did it to get involved. It was a good way to meet actives in the house, and it was a fun thing to do," freshman Missy Fine, Alpha Epsilon Phi, said. Members worked for spots that involved singing, dancing and acting. In many houses, the serenade chairs were in charge of making up the dances and determining the length of the practices. Sorority serenades consisted of dances and acts as opposed to the informative skits from the fraternities, which tried to tell the sororities what they could expect from pairing with their house. The spirit shown by the houses influenced the potential pairs. Thomas said, "The people that came over to serenade made a difference. We did not make a decision until everybody came over." Sophomore Erin Phipps, Kappa Kappa Gamma serenade chair, said, "Serenades were mainl y for fun because the pairing is done mostly by computer." The chapters submitted a list to the Panhellenic Association and the Interfraternity Council ranking their top 10 choices for pairs. Sophomore Jeff Cozzens, the IFC vice-president of programming, said these lists were then put into the computer, which did the chapters' pairings. Most chapters did get one of their top choices. 19

something ditkrent. Dressed in bermudas and carry ing lawn chairs, members of Acacia turned their house into a backyard for a picnic theme dance. In late January , Acacia had its first "Pink Flamingo Backy ard Pot Luck Jamboree" party. Social chair Tom Mahoney, a sophomore, said several members helped come up with the idea. "We were try ing to think of something original and new, and we were watching 'National Lampoon's Vacation' and saw Cousin Eddie," he said. "We thought about a theme like that and I have people dress up like they were having a picnic." Mahone y said almost everyone in the chapter participated in gathering strange items from thrift shops starting three weeks bet-6re the party. "We bought stuff we thought Cousin Eddie would probabl y have in his back y ard," Mahoney said. This included items like clotheslines, AstroTuri Moving to the beat at Zeta Beta Tau's "Underground Dance," a student dances beneath the flashing lights. Sophomore Mike Slater said the dance was very similar to a 1980s Rave. The house was filled with fog, and light paths on the walls guided partiers around the house. A disc jockey videotaped dancers at the party and projected the video onto huge movie screens during the dance.

carpet and lawn chairs. Acacia paired with Delta Zeta for the part y . This was the first year for the part y , in which 200 people attended, and Mahoney said the dance might become a tradition. "Every bod y loved it who came," he said. One traditional theme dance was Zeta Beta Tau's annual ZB'l'ahiti dance. The dance first became a tradition last year, internal social chair Mike Slater said. "It went well last year, so I progressed on it," he said. Slater, a sophomore, said a member of the chapter painted a mural of a tropical scene on the wall, which was covered with bamboo paper. The house paired with Gamma Phi Beta for the party. To further decorate for the party, ZBT pledges were assigned the job of bringing in tons of sand to set the beach mood. About 300 people, who attended the part y , could have tropical drinks and listen to a reggae band. Slater said he believed the extra work that went into theme dances was worth it. "People get tired of parties once and a while," he said. "These are date parties, and it gets to be a little more social." El

Members of Kappa Kappa Gamma celebrate after winning the egg toss competition during Sigma Chi's Derby Days in Dunn Meadow. The egg toss was one of the March 29 activities in which participants raised $3,000 for the Children's Miracle Network.

Derby Days raise money for Children's Miracle Network by sarah mckoski The women from Kappa Alpha Theta never thought they would be raising money for a good cause while dancing and singing to the music of Milli Vanilli. They won the Sigma Chi Derby Days Lip Sync Contest, which helped raise money for the Children's Miracle Network. Sigma Chi Derby Days consisted of many activities ranging from a lip sync contest to a tug-ofwar in Dunn Meadow. All of the 19 sororities were involved through teams that participated in the activities. The sororities had to pay a small fee to get involved with Derby Days. The fees were used for supplies, and the $3,000 left after expenses went to the Children's Miracle Network. Freshman Jennifer Wiley of Gamma Phi Beta said, "It was great to be able to have fun and, at the same time, give money to a good cause." Derby Days began March 29 with games such as Putt-Putt miniature golf, a free throw contest and a food toss. Winners of the games received points and in the end the sorority with the most points was declared the winner of Derby Days. After the points were tallied, Chi Omega was declared the winner. One of the activities that attracted the most people was the Lip Sync Contest, in which the sororities prepared songs and routines to compete for Derby Day points. This year's lip sync winner was Kappa Alpha Theta, winning with a song from Milli Vanilli.

The "Derby Darling" contest began March 30. Sophomore Mike Weishaar of Sigma Chi, said this was a huge money maker for the philanthropy. In this contest, each sorority selected a Derby Darling and then placed her name on buckets stationed around campus. Votes were then given or taken away from the candidate by placing a dime for a "Yes" vote and a quarter for a "No" vote in the various buckets. The Derby Darling was senior Kerri Werba from Kappa Kappa Gamma. Derby Days ended March 31 with the last round of Derby games in Dunn Meadow. The band Oliver Syndrome played while teams battled in three-legged races, tug-of-war and chicken fights. Freshman Sarah Dunlap, a member of Kappa Alpha Theta's winning tug-of-war team said, "It was so much fun meeting all the girls from other sororities. Not only did I get to know them, but I also got closer to the girls in my own house." Besides the games and the Derby Darling contest, points were given to houses for banners that were made advertising Sigma Chi Derby Days. After the games were done and the points were calculated, Chi Omega was the winner, followed by Alpha Xi Delta, Kappa Delta, Delta Gamma, Alpha Phi and Kappa Alpha Theta. Freshman Sarah Singsank, Alpha Xi Delta sorority member, said, "Derby Days was a lot of fun. It was great to be able to raise money for such a good cause while having a blast with all of my friends and sorority sisters." I

will counts At the beginning of a Christmas season during World War II, Will Counts asked his mother for a trumpet. He wanted to be the next Harry James. With her husband away in the service, she told him a trumpet could not be aftOrded. So while looking through a copy of Boys Lift'', he saw an ad tOr a Speed Graphic camera. At that time Speed Graphic was the Rolls Royce of cameras. On Christmas Day he received a Brownie Hawkeye. The Yugo of cameras. From early on Ira Wilmer Counts knew he wanted to be a photographer. But it took him a while. After finishing a history degree at what was then Arkansas State Teachers College, he went on to be a tire salesman, bookkeeper at a bank and finally an assistant in a photographs' studio. He left the studio because IU offered him a graduate assistantship to work and study in the Audiovisual Department in 1953. A year later Counts returned to Arkansas to earn $40 a week at the Arkansas Democrat. He later returned to IU to work full time in the Audiovisual photo lab. He did that for two years and in 1957 the Democrat offered him a job on the staff of the Sunda y Magazine. While working there, Counts took pictures that did what all photographers hope to do, bring about change. The Civil Rights movement was just starting to heat up in 1957, but in Little Rock, Ark. it had boiled over. Counts was covering the integration of a high school when he took a picture of an African-American man being kicked in the stomach by a white man. The picture, taken at the time of impact, captures the racial hatred of the times. The Associated Press picked up the photograph and transmitted it across the country. When President Eisenhower saw Counts' photograph, he ordered the National Guard to Little Rock to keep the peace. From there he went on to be a picture editor at the Associated Press Chicago. "I hated editing and asked to be a shooter again," Counts said. After five years as an AP photographer in Indianapolis, he was recruited to teach at IU. In his resignation letter Counts said he could do more tOr AP by teaching the people who would become AP, rather then shooting for them. In his 33 years of teaching at

IU, Counts' students have done plenty to help the AP and many other publications. The y work at the White House and National Geographic, publish books and win Pulitzer prizes. "Way back there, when I was in high school, I was thinking about photography and thinking photography is something you might be able to do for a long time, and you might be able to get into teaching," Counts said. That was until IU offered him a job teaching visual communication. Scott Goldsmith, a former student, now friend of Counts said, "One of my favorite parts of Will's teaching method is that he did not dictate a particular st y le of photography to his students. He gave us the parameters to work in but never made us do it his way." Counts style of teaching was two parts down-home honesty, one part childlike curiosity and one part Don Knotts. Something always went haywire in a Counts lecture — one of the reasons Counts was often heard saying, "Onward through the fog." "I can hear Will in J210 to this day," Goldsmith said, before going into his Counts impersonation: "Gee whiz, you dudes are gonna think Old Counts wasn't using his banana when he loaded these slides in that bab y . I'm gonna fix that right quick, shut up and get on with it." Having everything work smoothl y wasn't what Counts was concerned with as a professor. There were other more important things to be taught. "I have not, and maybe I should have been more concerned with technique as I have been with the images that are produced by the students," he said. "Technique can be learned individually. People come from all kinds of backgrounds into photojournalism programs with all kinds of technique levels. If you tried to get everybody to the same level with technique and such, you really wouldn't have time to get down to the nitty-gritty content." Content was always a primary goal with Counts: Content in his pictures and content in his relationship to students. El

sharing rides to fight frustrations by natalie gallogly Any person that has driven on campus knows the troubles of too many cars and not enough parking spaces. The University has done

what it can to ease the situation by offering more parking options, campus bus routes and stadium shuttle services. But another option was added to reduce the parking problems. Students, thculty and staff had the opportunity to participate in IU's new Ride Share program. Car pooling was a growing idea on university campuses all across the country, and IU followed suit by creating its own "Pool Sharks" program. "Our program has two purposes to it," said Rebecca Rowle y , Ride Share coordinator at the Urban Transportation Institute. "We want to reduce the number of single-occupancy cars on campus, and we also want to educate people on the expenses of driving." To become a part of the program, potential poolers filled out an application. The Ride Share program matched applications based on geographic location, music and smoking preference. After matches were found, Ride Share gave a list of the matches to the applicants who in turn made arrangements for car pooling. Pool sharks paid for a parking tag that could be transtCrred from one car to another, and the y could park in an y "A" spot On campus. The special tag

cost the same as a regular "A" decal. Rowley said the program had man y benefits. The first one was it offered to people that live near each other a chance to meet. Secondly, the program decreased parking concerns. The more people that joined the program, the more parking spaces the University would make available. Another benefit of the program focused on the educational aspect. Driving a vehicle is not only costly but it is harmful to the atmosphere. The Ride Share program educated drivers on car pooling and how it conserves the environment. Interest in the program was slow because many drivers were concerned about their independence being taken awa y . Rowle y was still pleased with the turnout despite the low numbers. Onl y 38 members joined the Ride Share program although man y more requested intOrmation about the program. Rowley attributed the small turnout to the fact that it was a new program that few students knew about. The. group used billboards, radio ads, print ads, bulletins and brochures to get the word out about the new program.1 he program did not set a specific goal for the amount of members it would like to have. "We don't look at success in terms of the numbers. Our purpose is to educate people," Rowley said. Rowley was very proud of the program and the support it received from participants and campus administration. "The University is doing this because they want to make the campus as healthy and safe as possible." El

mad max preaches messages from god and the constitution by christa voliva "And the glory of it is ... you can SAY what you want, you can DO what you want, you can BE whatever you want, but you gotta follow God and you gotta listen to Jesus, 'cause if you don't ... you're going to HEEEELLLL!" Words such as these, spoken by Max Lynch, better known as Mad Max, greeted man y students who passed the grassy area between Ballantine and Woodburn halls. Lynch could be found almost any sunn y afternoon, preaching his gospel to the crowds of up to 100 people who would stop to listen. Pacing back and forth and gesticulating wildly, Lynch was hard to miss in the crowd. With his thin grey hair, dark sunglasses, button-up oxford shirts and briefcase pasted with religious bumper stickers, Lynch attracted a great deal of attention. "It's kinda sweet in a way," sophomore Julie Hardesty said. "There's this little old man out there just ranting and raving. He's insane, but it's kinda fun just to watch him go at it." After being dismissed from a teaching position at Indiana State Universit y in the early 1970's for reading the Bible to his students, Lynch began traveling from one college campus to another, preaching his gospel to all who would listen. Although in his earl y days Lynch made stops at up to 70 university campuses, he now restricts his preaching to "t6ur or five local Big Ten schools," he said. Lynch balances his public preaching with his duties as a pastor at a local church in his hometown of Terre Haute. Lynch said the decision to preach to university students was not his own.

"It wasn't my idea," he said. "The Lord asked me to do it." Students had their own opinions of Lynch's presence on campus. "He's a little obnoxious, but he doesn't hurt an yone," sophomore John Swango said. "I think he's a lunatic, but he still has the right to be here." Preaching of the sinfulness of homosexuality and fornication and of the inferior role of women, Lynch sparked a great deal of anger in the student body. "He has his own agenda," graduate student Ted Bowyer said. "He clearl y thinks he is doing something that is worthwhile, and maybe he even thinks what he is doing is good, but it's not." Although most students were willing to allow Lynch the opportunity to express his opinions, some said that he went too far. "He has a right to speak his mind, but I am also aware that some of the things he says to women arc illegal by Indiana law," sophomore Shane McNamara said. "He calls them whores and things of that nature. He could be sued for assault." For some students, the only acceptable way of dealing with Lynch was getting rid of him. "He always tries to impose his opinion on other people and I don't like that," Bowyer said. "I don't think people want him here, and I certainl y don't care for him.

wanted: students to sublet apartment by amy sokoloff In early May when senior Robin Sovinski graduated and left her college years behind her, she was still reminded of the apartment she rented in Varsity Villas. Although she would no longer reside in Blooming-ton, Sovinski would still be responsible for paving $100 of her monthl y rent. Although Sovinski initially had difficult y finding someone to sublet her apartment, as many students did, she finall y found someone to help pay for the remainder of her 12-month lease. Twelve-month leases caused problems for students going home for summer break. Students who lived in oft-campus apartments or houses signed leases, holding them responsible for paying the rent for the year although they only stayed for 10 months. This led man y students to seek out the limited few remaining in Bloomington for the summer to sublet their apartments or houses. Most of these remaining students were people who had lived in L2,-reek houses or dorms during the school year. "Finding someone to sublet your apartment is very difficult," Sovinski said. She also said there were more people leasing than students looking fbr apartments for the summer months. When most students left for the summer in early May, only a few students remained in Bloomington to take summer classes. These remaining students had their pick of numerous apartments being subleased for the summer. "It's a bu y ers' market. They can decide if the y like where y ou live, your place and your price," sophomore Melissa Emmett said. Summer tennants saw price as a major issue. "Their top priority is cost," Sovinski said.

talked with friends, and scanned newspaper ads and signs around campus looking for a cheap place to live for the summer. Most owners were looking for subletters to take over their full rent but in order to find subletters, the y were willing to cut their price. Soyinski's monthl y rent Was $280, but she only asked fin$180. It was the responsibility of the primary tenant to pay the remaining cost. Sophomore Anthony Gerardot started his search asking for the full $128.75 per month to lease his apartment at Hunter Ridge, but because of his difficulty in finding someone to take over his rent, he said he would be willing to cut the cost and take on the loss himself. The search for subletters pasted a collage of advertisements across the campus. Students designed fliers advertising, their apartments, trying to attract prospective subletters. Varsity Villas put an ad in the newspaper to inform students that they have apartments available for summer subletting. The Villas then compiled a list of interested people to help their tenants. However, the tenants' troubles were not over when they found a subletter. The tenant and subletter then had to decide Who would be responsible if damage was done to the apartment during the summer. This problem was dealt with ditierently by each landlord. Sonic had the subletters sign a new lease, and others had them sign a responsibility contract. Gerardot said when he found someone to sublet his place, lie got out the lease and had them sign a new one. At some housing complexes, it was the responsibility of the primary tenant to draw up a lease for the subletter. Sovinski also said she planned to ask for a security deposit to ensure damages were covered. El

helping turn lives around by sara brazeal Most teenagers spend their time dreaming about the future and planning for life after high school. The girls at the Indiana Girls School in Speedway, Ind., share these common dreams. But these girls have to overcome more obstacles than most high school students. They must get themselves past their crimes and out of the juvenile facility, where they are sent instead of jail, and then cope with the questions of money and time. To help answer these questions about college and discuss concrete ways to make their aspirations a reality , students from the Volunteer Students Bureau spent several hours talking with the girls. Beginning in February, every other Wednesday night, seven or eight students went to the thcility to talk with the girls, junior Ben Franko, vice president of group trips, said. "It was great because they get really excited," Franko said. "One could tell the girls were excited because they would get real loud and obnoxious." Franko said 40-50 girls gathered together in their cottages when the students came to visit. Students introduced themselves, and then the group divided into smaller sections. The girls talked about their lives and asked questions about college. Senior Gina DeAgostino, coordinator of the program for Volunteer Students Bureau, said, "They want to tell you all their stories and hear about college life." DeAgostino said sometimes the group played games like charades, but most of their time was spent talking. The girls wanted to know about majors and studies, but also about parties and the social scene at college, DeAgostino said. They were very interested in how the atmosphere in college ditThred from the Girls School. The girls are in the Girls School because of problems with truancy, shoplifting or drug related problems, Franko said. But rather than looking like stereotypical criminals, the girls look so innocent and cute, Franko said. DeAgostino said, "I think the thing- that impressed me the most is how many of the girls believe [the y will change] after they get out of the girls school." Many vow to finish high school and to quit using drugs and alcohol, DeAgostino said. "They

reall y were positive," she said. "They really, really seem like the y want to do something with themselves." Franko said he was also impressed by the girls' attitude toward the future. "It was real positive in that I could tell them that they reall y can [succeed]," he said. While the positive attitudes of the girls touched Franko, he also said the girls at the school are different from the typical teenager. "One eye-opening experience would be probably the fact that what looked like probably a 13-year-old girl was showing me pictures of her baby," Franko said. The experiences of many of the girls have given them a mature attitude, he said. DeAgostino said she was surprised by how many of the girls wanted to stay at the center. They were fed, there was heat and the y did not have to face abusive parents at the center, she said. Working at the center benefitted the volunteers, too, DeAgostino said. "After volunteering, you don't take so many things for granted," she said. "You really can appreciate what you have better." Students who volunteered to work on the project were trained by a counselor at the school. The counselor prepared them for the kinds of questions the girls would ask. The counselor also told the volunteers what they should and should not ask the girls about, Franko said. Volunteers needed to be able to reall y talk with the girls without getting embarrassed or mad, DeAgostino said. "The main thing is that you really have to care about the girls," she said. "Every one of I the volunteers I is someone who is dedicated and not selfish." The program with the Indiana Girls School was not new this year, and the program planned to continue next year. In addition to working with the Indiana Girls School, the group also worked with the Indiana Boys School. Whether the girls or the boys, who the Volunteer Students Bureau worked with, pursued their college aspirations or not, Franko said the talks with college volunteers were still important. "They get to interact with someone who isn't wearing a badge, like a peer," he said. Franko said the visits are good for the girls. "It gives them something to think about rather than being stuck inside the place," he said. in

After volunteering, you don't take so many things for granted. You really can appreciate what you have better. Gina DeAgostino, senior

finding a place to call home by megan ladage When the landlord pointed out the ugliness of the furniture, "Justin" knew there was something wrong. Since this was the first time he had gone apartment shopping, it had not occurred to him that he might have problems renting. "Our landlord has never been very nice to us because we are a group of guys. Because she had a bad past history with renting to guys, she made us give her three personal references and information about our past work history each before we could sign the lease," sophomore Matt Bailey said. First stop: signing the lease. For almost all students, their leases lasted 12 months. This was commonplace despite the fact the school year was only 10 months long. Some apartment complexes, such as Walnut Knolls, offered a 10 month lease, but this was rare. "This is very unfair because 80 percent of the students aren't here year round. They should only have to pay for 10 months," Bailey said. Although this practice appeared unthir to students, most renters felt it was only natural because of the suppl y and demand of available housing. "We were afraid we wouldn't get one. The apartments are on a first come, first serve basis," freshman Aimee Crews said. Students also found affording a securit y deposit difficult. All of the housing complexes questioned required a security deposit as part of the deal. "Our securit y deposit was equal to our first and

last month's rent. It was a little scary to turn in because it was so much itionev," freshman Kim Ulrich said. Many students felt they were treated unfairly because of age and status discrimination. Once the students moved into the buildings, the y thced issues they did not feel an older person would have experienced. Some of these issues included negligence, unaccountability and safety hazards. "The first day we moved in we had a hole and an exposed outlet on my bedroom floor. It took them three months to fix it. If it were my parents, I doubt they would have acted the same way," sophomore Pat Kastner said. Another problem students faced was with management or workers coming into their apartment without warning. This posed a security risk for any renter. "We have an exterminator who comes in once a month. After knocking once, he just comes in. This is unsafe because the management is not very specific about when the y arc coming into our apartments. Several times, I have been scared when I run into him unexpectedly," senior Kirsty Saalftank said. Although these practices seemed unfair, most students understood why the renters treated them the way they did. "They are trying to make money. With the demand for apartments, they can charge whatever they want. I would do that if I were in their shoes. The situation can't be made better because what's perfect for the students isn't perfect for the management," Kastner said. VI

But Ma Goose wrote that a long time ago, before there were 8 a.m. statistics classes, before "Melrose Place" and certainly before Little 500.

"Books and beer and bonds lasting years ... that's what fraternity brothers are made of could be the updated version of the nursery rhyme. These ingredients are fir from universal or even permanent, but arc often found in boys, on their way to becoming men, who live in fraternities. There are not man y reasons why men want to join a fraternity but the reasons are important ones, to find friendship and to be with like people, in a word, brotherhood — the same reasons anyone would want to join a group.

"Something I'll never forget was when my roommate, Chris Bowden died. When that happened we were living out of the house, I was all alone at the time. It was a great feeling to go over to the house and see everybody there. They all helped me through it. All the events surrounding his death ... the week after he died We Were all going to walk through campus to Beck Chapel. We walked out of the house, down Jordan, it was a beautiful sight. We were all holding candles, campus seemed like it was dead. People would get off their bikes because they knew what we were doing. It was awesome. It's the closest I've seen those guys." —Russ Seiler, senior, business major

"Intramurals is weird. It doesn't mean much, but to us, it does. I'll never forget that. I'll never forget the bike team. Especiall y this year's because I know them. It's such a big deal, and they worked their nuts off. People, that's what it's all about. Like winning the all-campus basketball tournament this year ... it's weird how close you can get with guys by playing sports with them. Justin, Pookie and those guys, I got really close to them."

"I led a relatively sheltered life before I came to IU. When I was young I never ... my perception when I was in high school was that college was a place where you go, you get smart, then you get a job. I didn't realize what a growing experience it is. In the fact that I've grown so much sociall y . I hate to make reference to drinking, but when I was in high school, I never drank or anything and when I got here, it's just so different. You see it all here. You see people who take it because of the lack of discipline. We don't have a house mom or anything; there are people who go nuts with all that freedom. There are people who really don't know what to do with it. I kind of stand on the sidelines watching what's going on and say to myself, 'Gosh, is that something I should do?'"

"My fraternity dad, Cam, I'd walk with him a lot and say, 'God, what's the point of pledgeship?' I know you have to learn about the house and learn respect. Ever y one pays their dues. I could not picture it being worth it. With all the shit I got to go through, why would I possibly ? Looking back on it, I see it as productive and beneficial. I do realize the lessons learned. What it taught me, I'm not going to get into specifics, but I felt it was such a waste of time. It really tests your priorities. Do you want your fraternity to conic first or your grades to come first? Do you want to have a social life outside the fraternity? I reall y became a wreck. Now that I look back on it, I definitely know it was worth it."

When I go home, it's not like that at all, if one or two girls call me it's amazing. Now my phone is ringing all the time. You meet so many people in the greek system, it's just a fantasy."

—Dare Liberatore, senior, sports broadcasting major

Parties in the house during Little 500 week were planned months in advance. Sigma No would hire a band, then invite other houses to help cover the costs. Senior Chris Hasenbein girl-watched during a Little 500 party.

"People think we party all the time. We [fraternities] have the "Animal House" image. Reall y , people know what their goals are around here. Seeing upperclassmen so focused on their studies and stuff like that ... you kinda blow oft freshman year and every thing because you don't know how important it is. But seeing them around, or not seeing them around, I guess, because you know they arc studying, kinda helps motivate you. You see them being successful, and it kinda helps you be successful." —Ken Ha ynie, sophomore, history major

During finals week the house was often quiet to allow brothers to study. Senior Brad Farber takes a break to play video games. Seniors Chris Beck and Andy Walton get dressed to go the mall, while senior Scott Gerbosi (in chair) tries to study.

"The race was good. A lot or it is luck and staving out of wrecks. You know y ou want to win it, Nut it's hard to sav that's what 'AC arc going to do. There's so much pending on that, it's an y bod y 's race - whoever's in that last lap. Like the team that won this y ear, nobod y expected them to be in the last lap, and they pulled awa y and won. We were hoping to finish on the lead lap and that's what we did. We were happ y with what we did.-

Junior Justin Herman and senior Andy Walton stretched before taking a light ride the morning of Little 5(5). Alter being in the lead pa( k for most of the race, Sigma Nu finished on the lead lap in 7th place. The partying started at 9 a.m. the day of the Men's Little 5(5). Dave Liberatore, senior, and sophomores Matt Emmerson, Tim Bell and Andy Dahlinghaus helped singer Rusty Bladen get through "Piano Man."

"I think the times that will stick out most are going to be the times like when we walked to the Little 5 race or at quals or the actual race. That's a time that ... like an y grudge you mav ever had against somebod y ... it's one of the times when you look past everything, and everyone seems to be fighting for a common cause; we are cheering for the same thing. That's when everyone is the closest. Whether it he at the allcampus tootball game this fall when Sigma Nu heat Fiji, our biggest rival. I'm not the biggest rah, rah, brotherhood kind of guy, but those are the times that you look back on."

—Mike Horowitz, 1.1171i07", telecommunications major

"Don't knock it 'til von tr y it. People alwa y s have a negative view of fraternities and stuff. I kinda did too, but once I got to know the people ... people make up the fraternit y , the fraternity doesn't make up the people. You don't change Yourself to fit into Sigma Nu, Sigma Nu changes itself to fit into you, I guess. You're yourself and people appreciate you for who von are. Being independent and stuff like that is a positive thing around here."

—Ken Ha ynie, sophomore, history major
