PORTRAITS & ORGANIZATIONS

In late August we cruised into town resurrecting the sleepy city of Bloomington from its summer rest. In a week, the population of our small community in southern Indiana had jumped to 60,000. Impatiens in vibrant shades of red, mauve and violet lined the main sidewalks, knee-high and abundant with blooms. Flowering plants hung from the lampposts along the brick paths winding through campus, the limestone buildings the only reminder that IU was a top learning institution first, home to a beautiful Midwestern campus second. And with the largest freshman class in lU's history, the year began in a flutter of activity. Throughout the fall semester, we studied diligently and played frequently. We saw the opening of the first Asian Culture Center in the Midwest, we danced for 36 hours for the kids of Riley Children's Hospital and we cheered the men's soccer team when they brought home the national title for the first time in 10 years. Although we represented a diverse segment of the population, we joined together, creating a unified front on the issues that tried to divide us. When hate crimes threatened our community, we marched. The town square became a regular meeting place for many of us. Our year in Bloomington was unique — As were many of the events and issues that colored our lives. And we utilized our new knowledge and awareness to challenge the University with our thoughts and ideas throughout our educational journey.

this was our year

With Briscoe residents decked out in outfits from the 1950s-90s and a girl breakdancing across the stage with a centipede move, Homecoming week. end's official kick-off definitely lived up to its "Wacky, Wild, IU Style" theme. The events started Thursday with the "Yell Like Hell" skit competition, held at the University Gymnasium at 7:30 p.m. Briscoe Quad won the competition with its "Dancing through the Ages" skit. "The best skits get crowd reaction and are centered on things people can relate with," sophomore Missy Fritz said. Friday's annual parade down Third Street earned a big crowd reaction as well. The lawns along the parade route hosted cookouts, football games and frisbee tosses. Fraternity members transplanted formal couches and other furniture from their houses to the seating arena of their front lawns. A float presented by Alpha Phi sorority and Lambda Chi Alpha fraternity generated the most excitement during the hour-long parade. The float featured the "A-Team," popular heroes who combatted evil in 1980s television, who exploded from the back of a van to tackle and beat a costumed Iowa football player. continued

Jason Nicolaou, a sophomore and member of Lambda Chi Alpha, enjoyed his acting debut as the Iowa football player. "They were doing elbow smashes, WWF style. I had pads on, so it didn't hurt that bad ... I'm mascot material now," Nicolaou said. "It's fun to see everybody getting involved. The parade brings everyone on campus together," junior Christy Holtkamp said "Everyone is so creative with their floats. The best ones act stupid, put on costumes and put in effort." Immediately following the parade, students flocked to a pep rally at the Student Building. The rally kept spirits high with speeches from IU President Myles Brand and football coach Cam Cameron. The IU cheerleaders, porn squad, Redsteppers and Marching Hundred all performed as well. Next came the crowning of Homecoming Queen Susie Johnson and King Dave Rosen, both seniors. "It is quite an honor to get to represent IU in that way," Rosen said. He and Johnson were given scholarships, footballs signed by Cameron and photographs of the football field. Cameron left the crowd with final words of inspiration. "Tomorrow is payback time. Plan is: Go to midnight practice. Students, party for a few hours. Everyone pull up in time for the game tomorrow," he said. Not only did everyone pull up in time for the game, but they arrived as early as 9:00 a.m. for tailgating at Memorial Stadium and in the surrounding lots. Students and alumni gathered around cars, tents and mini-grills to eat and rally before the football game. Several hours later, a packed stadium watched as a mere 1:58 remained on the scoreboard. The football team had no timeouts remaining and the Iowa Hawkeyes led the Hoosiers by one point. Cameron again established the objective: to set up for the winning field goal. Junior running back Frankie Franklin gained a yard up the middle to put the Hoosiers at Iowa's 8-yard line. Then freshman quarterback Antwaan Randle El proposed a different plan to Cameron. "When we got down there, he comes over and says `Coach, I can keep it around the right end,'" Cameron said Cameron agreed. Six plays later, faking a handoff to Franklin, Randle El sprinted around the right end and into the corner of the end zone. The delayed touchdown signal sealed victory for the Hoosiers. The 14-7 victory was a proud moment for Cameron and other Hoosiers on a beautiful October afternoon as the temperature climbed to 80 degrees. Hoosiers, as a collective group, walked away champions of a fun, safe and successful weekend.

Incoming freshmen spent their summer months contacting roommates and preparing for life in the residence halls. Little did they know many of them would live in floor lounges because of overcrowding. The 6500 freshmen took the campus by surprise. The dass of 2002 was the largest freshman class in Indiana University's 178-year history. Director of Admissions Mary Ellen Anderson attributed the class size to the improved instate marketing campaign and faster notification of acceptance decisions. The Halls of Residence made some changes to accommodate so many freshmen. Eigenmann Hall, usually filled with mostly graduate students, opened up six floors to make room for the large freshman class. "There were also 62 male students living in dorm lounges at the beginning of the year. That was the overflow," Halls of Residence Manager of Assignments Denise Gowin said. While some students complained about poor class availability and overcrowding, others didn't seem bothered. "It doesn't really bother me because I came from a huge high school," freshman Brooke Seldin said. "There's more of a chance for everybody to get involved."El Kari Burns, sophomore and Orientation Assistant, shows her Teter Quad spirit during Freshmen Orientation Week. Each Residence Hall had between eight and 12 Orientation Assistants to help freshmen with the move in and the adjustment process.

by STACI DAVIDSON The school year had just begun, but on Sept. 19 Hoosier Fest provided the students and the Bloomington community with an entertaining distraction. Sponsored by local radio station 'WITS and funded by Budweiser and Courtyard Marriott, Hoosier Fest was an all-day festival that started in the late morning hours. Kirkwood Avenue was closed as the shops attracted people with sales. Booths selling jewelry lined the street, while face painting and balloon creations amused the kids. Food vendors crowded the sidewalks and a huge beer garden took over the east end of the street. But the main draw for most was the music. Early in the day, couples gathered near the stage to dance to the Swing Rays. Later that night people flocked to see bands such as Johnny Socko, Sonya Dada and the Samples. Students and Bloomington citizens packed the streets, sat on rooftops and leaned out windows to watch the many shows. "I think it is really great that Bloomington has something like this where all these great bands, like the Samples, will come for such little money," senior Hillary Geronemus said. ri Enjoying the festival's atmosphere, a student dances to the music of the Samples.

The annual Take Back the Night rally Sept. 27 gave these victims a voice and an opportunity to inform the community about rape and sexual assault. As a sizable crowd gathered in Dunn Meadow, Health Center representatives Debbie Melloan-Ruin and Suzanne Pauwels spoke to the crowd about "responsibility, respect, and regard." The a capella group VIDA performed while rally organizers distributed white candles to the emotional crowd. Late-arriving participants joined the group in time for the march down Kirkwood Avenue to the courthouse. Protestors dominated the street yelling chants such as "Hey, Hey, Ho, Ho. Patriarchy's got to go." At the courthouse, Bloomington Mayor John Fernandez began the speaking round by telling men violence should not be . tolerated and saying to women that the community is here to support them. "There are far too many cases of sexual assault in Bloomington, especially in the first eight weeks of school," Fernandez said. As he opened the microphone to comments from the crowd, speakers yelled, sobbed and whispered their stories in the hope that they might save a future victim.15 Marching down Kirkwood Avenue toward the courthouse, senior Heather Jones leads the pack.

A dragon dance, a symbolic Chinese custom meant to bring good luck, was included in the opening ceremony and festivities. During the course of the dance, a series of offerings were made to the dragon, including a donation by IU Bloomington Chancellor Kenneth Gros Louis. Beginning its mission at IU, the Asian

Culture Center hoped to foster awareness and educate the community on the diversity of the Asian cultures represented on campus. The center's facilities included both a new library and computer lab and offered peer tutoring and programming services. The center also provided a meeting place for many of the Asian student organizations on campus. It beeame the first of its kind in the Midwest. The Asian Culture Center's opening marked an important time for Asian students at IU. "This center's creation was long overdue," Asian Student Union President Jason Chi, a senior, said. "I belieire it is a revolutionary step for the University as a whole." Ei Outdoors for the rainy opening ceremony, students and faculty members celebrate with a good luck dragon dance.

money for kids by SARAH GLIEMMO

Early Friday evening Oct. 23, roughly 700 students packed their duffle bags with candy, toys and comfortable clothes before hopping on campus buses to the HPER. But these students were hardly attending a slumber party. With the help of over 100 committee members, 200 mass members, chairmen and an executive council, these students committed themselves to 36 hours on their feet in the eighth annual Indiana University Dance Marathon Oct. 23-25. During their stay at the HPER gym, dancers played games, snacked, chatted with visitors and gradually learned steps to a 10minute line dance. Fourteen bands played during the course of the marathon, including Mike & Joe, Jack Fife and a capella group Straight No Chaser. IU Dance Marathon Committee (IUDMC) members and participants began raising money for the event in December 1997 and worked until the last minute by writing letters acid canning for donations. They raised $230,565 for the Ryan White Center for Infectious Disease Control, part of the Riley Outpatient Center in Indianapolis. The marathon culminated in a human circle around the gym comprised of dancers, committee members and Riley families, as the entire group sang "Angels Among Us." "You are mentally and physically exhausted, yet you have tears of joy and accomplishment streaming down your face. You have to experience the marathon to truly understand that moment," IUDMC President Jodi Knauer, a senior said. eni Dance Marathon mass members greet visiting patients of Riley Hospital and invite them to dance.

by JENNIFER JORDAN Straight No Chaser, IU's own men's a cappella group, returned to campus in the fall to celebrate the release of its second CD. Straight No Chaser (SNC) was also hired by the Residence Hall Association for the fall semester to perform free concerts in the Residence Halls. In December, the group performed its second CD release concert in the Musical Arts Center. SNC became the first group not associated with the music school to perform there in 28 years. The concert, like all of SNC's past performances, emphasized the strengths and attributes of the group as a whole and of the individual members. SNC's version of "The Twelve Days of Christmas" included a short insertion of the Chanukkah song from "South Park," leaving no group member out of the holiday celebration. Since the release of their first CD, SNC has toured the country and won many awards. In March 1998, SNC won the semifinals of the National Championship of College A Cappella in St. Louis. This win granted the group a spot at nationals at Carnegie Hall. Straight No Chaser placed second in New York City. While the group returned to campus as a whole, the end of the 1999 school year marked the loss of several original members due to graduation. Their recording, entitled Last Call, was symbolic of the group's split. However, this did not mean the end of SNC. The IU Alumni Association sponsored SNC and the group was scheduled to perform all over campus and the nation as a representative of Indiana University. Their continued success would no doubt be supported by all of IU.

improves

Auditorium for students by MICHELLE LAIRD

The Indiana University Auditorium normally echoed with the words of famous speakers and the songs of Broadway musicals. During the 1998-99 school year it was filled with the sounds of construction. Brian Rives, general manager of the Auditorium, said the 57-year-old building never had a major overhaul. The $12.5 million renovation called for new ventilation, plumbing and electrical systems. The project also included plans for a more accessible theater through the installation of ramps, larger restrooms and an elevator. Private donations of about $400,000 made restoration of the Thomas Hart Benton murals in the lobby possible. Another $200,000 went toward the restoration of the theater's organ. All renovation was expected to be completed in the fall of 1999. Members of the IU community not only had to find other places to attend cultural events, but many also had to change their routes to class due' to the renovation. Beginning in mid-September, a portion of Seventh Street was closed to traffic and the campus bus service changed its routes to accommodate the construction. Despite the temporary inconvenience, students hoped the renovation would eventually lead to a more convenient and enjoyable theater experience. Ci Two workers continue the ongoing renovation of the interior of the IU Auditorium. The $12.5 million construction started in the spring of 1998 and was expected to be finished in the fall of 1999. Upon completion, the Auditorium will continue its regular schedule of performances and concerts. Photo by Justin Rumbach.

tourney by KATHRYN KNAPP

The men's soccer team arrived at Richmond Stadium Dec. 11, the home of the University of Richmond Spiders and the NCAA Men's Soccer Championship. Only one team from the previous year's Final Four returned: the Hoosiers. The group from IU longed for a championship. The Hoosiers left Richmond in 1997 with a painful 1-0 loss to UCLA in triple sudden-death overtime. In 1998, they had other plans. "I had a photograph of myself lying down on the field crying after last year's game," junior Dema Kovalenko said. "I kept it up on my wall for three or four months. It was the best motivation I could have had." The Hoosiers all remembered the defeat, but it did not take long for IU to make its mark at the championships. In the semifinal matchup against Santa Clara University, the Hoosiers dominated the entire game, winning 4-0. In the championship game, IU met Stanford University. In less than 20 minutes the Hoosiers had a 2-0 lead. Stanford scored and the game belonged to either team. Junior Aleksey Korol scored 44 minutes into the half, sending the Hoosiers off the field at halftime with a 3-1 advantage. No one scored in the second half, and as the Hoosiers watched the clock run down, they began to celebrate. After 10 long years and several close calls, IU had won the national championship. "Winning the championship this year is incredible," Kovalenko said. The Hoosiers left Richmond in 1998 as the underdog team that won it all. In Junior Dema Kovalenko jumps on top of a pile of Hoosiers as they celebrate winning their fourth NCAA Championship.

by KATHRYN L. KNAPP For years, Coach Bob Knight took part in a tradition — addressing the student body and public before the men's basketball season began. The tradition seemed to end in 1993. But Oct. 22, Knight broke the silence and welcomed students and fans to Assembly Hall. "If I were in charge, and I'm not, you wouldn't have to go to school tomorrow," Knight said. In his 28th year of coaching the men's team, Knight promised fans an exciting season. He encouraged them to follow their dreams. Knight joked with fans and answered the questions he felt were relevant. He thanked people for support and said the banners that hung in Assembly Hall were a tribute to the fans. He asked the fans to cheer their hearts out, but to leave officials alone. "Let me handle the officials," Knight said. "This is the best basketball crowd in America and everybody knows it. I do enough bitching for all of us. And I know when to bitch." Knight had spent his coaching career making headlines by causing controversy or breaking new records. From his coaching days at Army (1966-1971) to 1998 at IU, Knight had collected over a 70 percent winning percentage between the time he started at Army in 1966 and the night of his address. Over the years, Knight had been recognized for his accomplishments and patronized for his attitude, but the General remained among the nation's best. Knight spent the majority of the evening answering questions from the fans, but he did make one thing clear. He told people to believe in themselves.

by MILLICENT MARTIN Instead of attending classes Jan. 18, students had the opportunity to actively celebrate the Dr. Martin Luther King Jr. holiday for the second consecutive year. Groups held events so students could spend "A Day On, Not a Day Off." Honoring King with special events was not limited to just one day; groupsponsored events on campus lasted the entire weekend preceding the holiday. One of the weekend highlights was an appearance by Sheryl Swoopes, WNBA star and former college basketball Player of the Year. She spoke to the crowd and signed autographs before the women's basketball game on Jan. 15. Swoopes also dropped the ball for the game's tip-off. The Unity Summit also involved students in a dialogue about race relations. Participants discussed how they could continue educating themselves and others as well "I found it was a wonderful opportunity and a great start for future programming at the University level that continues throughout the year," said Darrell Ann Stone, assistant director of student activities. "A lot of the evaluations suggested that we continue this format more times than Martin Luther King weekend if we want to see change." A multicultural "Read Out," held at the Monroe County Public Library, featured presentations of children's books by diverse community and campus organizations. The Black Student Union recognized nearly a dozen faculty, staff and students for their efforts during their Image Awards banquet. Other events included a film showing of "Eyes on the Prize," a documentary on the civil rights movement, a special convocation for students and faculty presenting information about King and concerts at the School of Music featuring African-American composers.

MLK Jr. Day 51

With a new meal point system in place, the Division of Residential Programs and Services found itself under constant scrutiny. Students who ate on the program purchased food anywhere on campus, including the Indiana Memorial Union, McDonald's at Read Center, food courts and convenience stores at several residence halls. However, the popular food courts took business away from the •traditional dining halls, forcing most of them to cut back service. In addition, the points on a student's card were non-refundable. By the end of the year, this left many students with several hundred dollars worth of unused points. A small group of students led by senior Mark Krenz tried to combat this system with mass e-mails and a Web Site encouraging students to demand a refund for all unused points. "Now that Forest doesn't serve on the weekends, my parents aren't getting what they paid for," freshman Sara Brennan said. Other students protested the system and demanded refunds for their unused points by picketing with signs and banners at 801 N. Jordan Ave., home to the Division of Residential Programs and Services. After a year of turmoil surrounding the new system, administrators altered the plan for future years to create a better program for both students and the university.in Students wait in line at Sugar & Spice, located on the Mezzanine level of the IMU. The popular bakery and coffee shop was one of several places on campus students could use their meal points. Peak times such as the noon hour brought large crowds, and students were often forced to wait in long lines at each venue. Photo by Justin Rumbach.

swing sensation comes and goes by KEVIN STUART

The 1999 IU Sing theme "Any Swing Goes" took on a double meaning as the swing scene not only reached its peak but then disappeared from Bloomington. At the height of the craze, Bloomington could claim the Swing Rays as its own rockabilly band, hold an IU Sing named after the popular dance and have hordes of students, many dressed up in authentic '50s-style clothing, going to the Bluebird every Monday night for the Swing Rays. All of this drew to a close in February when, after more than two years playing Cigartini, the Monday swing night at the Bluebird, the Swing Rays disbanded. They had been the main attraction in the Bloomington swing scene since their inception in the fall of 1996. As the scene grew, so did their popularity. By the end, they had self-released a CD and played throughout the Midwest and South. "The energy just wasn't there anymore and it was time to move on," said Eric Reeves, vocalist for the Swing Rays. "It was pretty much a mutual decision (to break up). We were going separate directions. Ryan (Nichols) left for Texas and we had to consider if we wanted to stay together. It seemed like the best thing for all of us," Reeves said. The Swing Rays played their last show at Kilroy's Sports, an unlikely venue for the band before swing reached its peak. Friends bought them shots of whisky and filled the dance floor. The show ended when the bassist, playing with fervor, broke a string. The Indianapolis-based Jay Kelly Orchestra took over until the end of March, when the Bluebird decided that Cigartini night would be no more. The swing movement peaked in August of 1998 with attendance at the Bluebird reaching up to 400 per night. But from September on, there was a noticeable decline. "What really seemed to kick it over the top was when we started the dance lessons. But, it was actually a double-edged sword," said Bluebird manager Dave Kubiak. "It got so crowded and popular that some of the hardcore Swing Rays fans stopped coming. Although the scene really peaked with the new fans, when that started to die off we also didn't have as many of the older fans showing up anymore."

"Is your car missing? It's been towed!" Many signs with this message throughout the Bloomington community warned students not to park in restricted areas, but students often ignored them, and they paid for it with their pocket books. Senior Stephanie Abell recalled the night she parked her '94 Corsica in a restricted spot reserved for the cook at McNutt. "What a stupid mistake," Abell said. "It became the most annoying situation ever. I had to drive 40 minutes to get my car back." The problem affected students off campus as well. Several local businesses started towing in January after repeatedly warning students of their parking restrictions. Big Red Liquor's large parking lot was a common example. Students returned to the lot after an evening at nearby bars and found their cars missing. Many of them had parked in the Big Red lot all year without problems. "There are signs everywhere to warn people," said a spokesman for Big Red. "All of our spaces are leased. If we didn't lease them it wouldn't be a problem to park there." Towing companies such as Mitch's and Hawkins & Sons charged $40 to retrieve a towed vehicle, while some students admitted paying up to $90 to get their cars back. Most towing services only accepted cash, and their lots were far from campus. As a Bloomington resident stranded outside Kilroy's Sports Bar explained, "It's a mistake you only make once." El Paul Sellers puts a dolly on a vehicle parked at the Elks Lodge on Walnut Avenue.

Latino students from across the Midwest gathered in Bloomington April 10-11 for the 16th annual Sportsfest. Latinos Unidos hosted the event and welcomed teams from IU, Purdue-Calumet (PUC), IU-Northwest, DePauw University, Wabash College and Iowa State University. This year marked the first time an out-of-state school attended the event. Sportsfest gave latino college students in the Midwest a chance to congregate, compete and get to know each other. "Sportsfest gives us a chance to support each other in our struggle as a latino community," said junior Cynthia Fierro, LUIU president. "It's a fun and friendly competition." A triathalon of flag football, basketball and volleyball made up the sporting events. Saturday, the teams played flag football and volleyball, ending the day with a banquet and dancing. The teams met again Sunday for a battle at the Wildermuth basketball courts. The championship game came down to PUC team two and DePauw. PUC won the game, leaving the overall competition in a three-way tie between PUC team two, DePauw and LUIU. "We weren't expecting a three-way tie," Fierro said. "We had to make sure that all the schools went home happy." The event ended with the awarding of trophies and MVP awards. PUC team one finished second overall, while Iowa State finished third. LUIU founded Sportsfest in 1983 and hosted the event for 15 years. In 1998, DePauw hosted it for the first time. Fierro said the event was successful and she did not see the tradition ending anytime soon. "If it's not a tradition here in Bloomington, other schools will keep it up," Fierro said. "It's more than just a sporting competition, it's a social event that people look forward to."

Coach Bob Knight went to Cuba for a coaching clinic while the players were finishing up classes. Very few people knew what was ahead. Sophomore guard/forward Luke Recker shook up the Hoosiers' roster early April 14 when he released a statement that announced his intentions to transfer from IU. He became the second IU starter to transfer in one-and-a-half years and the third in three seasons, following the departures of Jason Collier and Neil Reed. "I appreciate the opportunity given to me by coach Knight," Recker said. "However, I have not been satisfied with my development as a player. I blame no one but myself for this and believe my development will best be served in another program." Recker always dreamed of playing under Knight at IU. He committed to the Hoosiers following his sophomore year at DeKalb High School. Recker earned Mr. Basketball and McDonald's All-American honors after his senior season in 1997. "This is the toughest decision I have ever made," Recker said. "I love the state of Indiana, and playing for IU was my lifelong dream." Recker earned third team All-Big Ten honors after finishing the '99 season as IU's leading scorer. One of the team's emotional leaders, Recker started 33 of 34 games during the season and averaged 16.1 points per game. He started 30 of 32 contests as a freshman and averaged 12.8 points a game. Recker's statement didn't sit well with the IU community. "Did the kid do everything he could do to develop?" assistant coach Mike Davis told the Bloomington Herald-Times. "(Knight) bent over backwards for him. Luke Recker had more freedom than a lot of kids. He said he is not being developed? You can only be what you want to be. When it comes to development, there is a point where the kid has to do something, too." The Hoosiers won nearly twice as many games as they lost during Recker's two years. IU went 43-23 over the two-year stint. Somewhere down the line, Recker made his choice and he will have to try to continue his dream of winning somewhere else.ri Sophomore guard/forward Luke Recker gets his head snapped back while being fouled by Michigan guard Louis Bullock.

As part of the festivities surrounding Little 500, Assembly Hall played host to a secret agent, some superheroes and a whole lot of people in strange outfits riding tricycles April 22. The theme for the 1999 Mini 500 Tricycle Race was a 007 James Bond motif with the motto "License to Trike." To open the evening's events, senior Matt Skehan rode out on a tricycle and proceeded to fight a mock battle with some opposing "agents" while the familiar strains of the Bond theme blared from the loudspeakers. "Bond is one of those childhood icons that all of the guys my age grew up watching," Skehan said. "It's Just fun to imitate someone you know." The lighthearted beginning foreshadowed things to come, as many of the teams competing in the men's, women's and coed divisions took the floor wearing outlandish costumes. The competitors from the Fiji house came out dressed as various comic-book superheroes and received one of the biggest cheers of the evening when they paraded around Assembly Hall with a "(Luke) Recker sucks" sign. There were 23 teams each for both the men and women as well as 15 coed teams competing. Each race had three rounds — a heat, a semifinal and a final. The Alpha Gamma Delta "Flying Squirrels" won the women's race, living up to its pole position as it defeated Aftershock and Sigma Delta Tau in the final with a time of 48.88 seconds. "It feels good — we won it last year too," senior Flying Squirrel triker Sarah Holliday said. "It's competitive, but it's all fun. It's just to get excited for the races this weekend." In the second race of the evening, the Alpha Chi Sigma "Degeneration Eps" took the men's title with a time of 45.73 seconds. The team defeated the Evans Scholars and two-time defending champions Pi Kappa Phi. "Basically our goal was not to screw up," junior Alpha Chi Sigma rider Matt Nance said. Pi Kappa Phi attempted a three-peat, but in keeping with the theme of the evening, the team discovered that "you only win twice." "It's disappointing, but it's a lot of fun coming here," freshman Wally List said. The Evans Scholars won the coed race, defeating the Alpha Chi Sigma "Quicksilver" and the "Negligent Wolfpack" with a time of 46.92 seconds. "It's pretty exciting, we tried for a couple of years and came up short," senior Evans Scholars triker Aaron Feyos said "This time we finally made it. It's a pretty good feeling."

Armstrong remembered

by JEFF FLEISCHER

The 1999 Little 500 bicycle race featured the usual competition between greek, residence hall and independent teams. But it also featured an unusual distinction. It was the first Little 500 not to have William S. Armstrong present. Armstrong, former president of the IU Foundation and the man the Little 500/soccer stadium was named after, died July 17, 1998 at the age of 80. Born in 1917 in Owensboro, Ky., he arrived at IU as a student and graduated in 1941. After spending time in the army and working for a milk company in Owensboro, Armstrong returned to IU in 1952 and became executive director of the fledgling IU Foundation, a private organization designed to raise money for the University. In 1969, the Foundation named Armstrong its president, a post he held until his retirement in 1983. Under his leadership, donations rose from about $80,000 in 1952 to about $15 million when he retired. But his impact on the University extended beyond the money he raised. He played a major role in the creation of the Little 500 and helped its national exposure when he played himself in the film "Breaking Away." "His invaluable leadership was the bedrock upon which the outstanding achievements of the Foundation today are built," IU chancellor Herman B Wells said. "Throughout his life, he remained an active participant in the University community, and he will be missed by all of us."ri William "Army" Armstrong watches the competitive men's field during the 1998 Men's Little 500. Despite his retirement as President of the IU Foundation in 1983, Armstrong still was present at many campus events sponsored by the IU Student Foundation, including the annual Little 500 activities. To pay tribute to the man who gave of himself, each rider's jersey had "Army" printed on the left sleeve. Photo by Kevin Stuart.

by CHRISTIN NANCE Webster's Dictionary defined deja vu as "the feeling that one has been in a place or had a specific experience before." Kappa Kappa Gamma's Lisa Roessler, a senior, knew the feeling. She had been in this position in 1998 — on the bike as her team entered the final lap — but the nervousness was still there. Upon entering the last lap, the defending champions were in third behind Kappa Alpha Theta and Alpha Delta Pi. But Roessler knew the track like the back of her hand. She repeated her winning sprint to hand the Kappas their second consecutive Women's Little 500 trophy with Kappa Alpha Theta finishing second. Kappa Kappa Gamma rider Elizabeth Andrews, a junior, said replicating the feat was unbelievable. "It's much more sweet the second time because defending your tide is so difficult," Andrew said. But everything wasn't coming up roses for the Kappas. They endured an early crash in the middle of the pack. Kappa rider Suzannah Bero, a senior, attributed the crash to the presence of inexperienced teams. "When you're in the pack (at the start), a lot of the slower teams tend to get excited and speed up," Bero said. "I was in the middle and couldn't go anywhere." • Bero said the team's support helped her recover and get the job done. continued

0 THE FINISH Women's Little 500 69

"If I hadn't seen my teammates encouraging me from the sidelines (saying) 'that's ok, that's ok,' then I don't know what I would have done. I just knew we had to . catch back up," she said. "It was good that it happened so early because I was still fresh." Pole sitter Chi Omega was among the lead pack until an accident between Delta Zeta and Alpha Phi Omega on lap 67 caused them to take a gamble. Officials called Chi Omega for creeping under the yellow flag and assessed them a 15-second penalty. The team finished seventh. Kappa Alpha Theta led the race early and remained in contention despite its dependence on two riders for most of the race and an ill-timed crash. Thetas suffered an accident while heading down pit row before a planned exchange. By the time they had put a new rider on the track, Thetas had fallen one-half lap behind, but

that wasn't enough to defeat them. Kappa Alpha Theta coach Tom Schwoegler said the team's will to come back impressed him. "For us to come back from half a lap down with 15 to go," Schwoegler said. "It's one of the most amazing things I've seen in my 25 years of coaching. The finish doesn't indicate how they ran the race today." Kappa Alpha Theta rider Anne Holterhoff, a junior, was on the bike at the end and was disappointed finishing 15-tenths of a second behind the Kappas. "I wanted it so bad," Holterhoff said "I used my final sprint, but Lisa had the fresh legs. It's disappointing, but I wasn't supposed to ride the last 15 laps." Theta rider Nicole Duggan, a junior, put it succinctly. "Sometimes it's not so much the finish that matters, but the journey that got you there."

Kappa Kappa Gamma's advantage revealed itself as the race wore on. The Kappas gradually increased their lead on the rest of the field through lap 70. "We took opportunities when they presented themselves," Bero said. "When Chi O's fell back, we worked with Thetas to be up front. When Thetas fell on a bike exchange, we took advantage by increasing our lead on the rest of the pack." But the Kappas encountered tough teams around every corner. Phi Mu and Alpha Delta Pi put their all into conquering the Kappas, and nearly unseated them. Phi Mu rider Janet Kiefer, a senior, said the team had no regrets after its fourth-place finish. "We're very happy with our finish because we gave it our all," Kiefer said. "We can always say `coulda, shoulda, woulda,' but we have no regrets. At the final

lap, it was my last time on a Roadma.ster, so I just poured my guts into it. There was no other way to do it because I wouldn't have another chance to be in the race. "We didn.'t finish first, but Kappas is a great team. They've shown it all year long, and they've shown (in this race) what a lot of people expected them to do." Senior rider Heather Gathercole said Alpha Delta Pi, who started in seventh, wanted to give the Kappas a run for their money. "Our goal was to stay with them until the end and just to keep with them on the final sprint," Gathercole said after finishing third. "It's my last race. I'm so happy because we accomplished our goal, but I'm also sad because I love this race." El

competitive atmosphere heats up men's race by MICHAEL EISENSTADT

With senior Jett Tackbary on the bike and less than 10 laps to go, Sigma Phi Epsilon took a gamble. Following a strategy used by the 1996 Little 500 winner, Phi Delta Theta, Sig Ep moved into two lap sprints to finish the race. As Tackbary came around the start/finish line with six laps left in the race, he moved into an all-out sprint for two laps. As planned, Tackbary's sprint caused the pack of riders to spread out. With four laps to go, he handed the bike off to teammate Jason Baker, a junior. Baker kept up the two-lap sprint, leaving only his team and Phi Gamma Delta in contention for the checkered flag. As Baker came around turn four, at the finish of his two laps, he handed the bike off to one of the best sprinters in the field. Senior Steve Kopach took a smooth exchange from Baker at the start of lap 198 and peddled as fast as he could. Fiji sophomore Todd Cornelius could not catch up. "It was the best feeling in the world to cross the finish line knowing I was first," Kopach said. "All I was thinking about was that finish line, and that no one was getting around me. I dug as deep as I could. I wanted to make sure that since this was my last race I didn't leave anything out there." A crash on turn four around lap 190 ultimately eliminated many of the top teams including the Cutters, Phi Delta Theta, Acacia and Sigma Alpha Epsilon. Senior Andy Lupo of Sig Ep said crashes are a part of the race. "Skilled riders stay up front. We were the most skilled team out there today," Lupo said. The crash, in which Phi Kappa Psi's senior Matt Infantino broke his collarbone, caused about 10 teams to fall nearly one lap off the lead team, too large of a distance to make up in such a fast moving race with only 10 laps left. Junior Mike Riley of Acacia said the crash was devastating for his team. "It set us back big time. We had the best rider on campus (senior Kurt Gensheimer), and the scrambling just took his legs out from under him."

74 Calendar

Senior Mike Possley of pole team Phi Delta Theta said Sig Ep's chances would have been decreased had the crash not occurred. "It would have been a little bit different," Possley said. "Probably just a bigger field sprint, which would have been exciting too." But Possley said Kopach would have been one of the riders in that final sprint "I fully expected him to be one of the top riders at the end of the race," Possley said. "He's been looking good all throughout this last week of practice. I knew he was going to be dangerous." The crash did not take any of the glory away from Sig Ep or their fans, who stormed the track, lifting Kopach in the air and repeatedly screaming "Ep." Sig Ep's sponsor, Howie Whittenberg of Howie's bagels, said the race capped off a wonderful year. "It's unbelievable," Whittenberg said. "There's nothing harder than what these kids do. The commitment they make and to still be able to do well in schooL" Kopach said the hard work he and his teammates put in throughout the year was worth it. "Sometimes you're out there and you don't know what you're training for when you only have one race the whole year," Kopach said. "It was a great event and was every bit worth it. I think we would have all done it over again, even if we came in last." Even Possley, who was disappointed not to be in the final sprint for the win, expressed fulfillment for having had the opportunity to ride. "Overall when I look back at it, Little 500 has done so much for me personally that I can't be too bummed out," Possley said. "I can be bummed out that I didn't get a chance to sprint at the end, but if you look at the overall picture, I'll never be able to give back to Little 5 what Little 5 gave to me." rj

graduation

commerates past and future by CHRISTIN NANCE

Unpredictable weather and "the wave" helped make 1999's spring commencement memorable, but tradition was still present. IU's 170th commencement ceremony was tumultuous from a weather standpoint, as the threat of rain caused indecision about which venue would hold the graduates. The organizers decided to stay with Memorial Stadium, even though the weather looked ominous. IU conferred 5,923 degrees to 12 schools. Members of each school displayed their individual spirit with everything from a beach ball floating around the sea of graduates to cans of exploding silly string and noisemakers. Many graduates had messages, symbols or even a "Scream" mask attached to the tops of their caps to express the exhilaration of graduation. Alumnus James F. Collins, U.S. Ambassador to the Russian Federation, focused his commencement address on students' roles as citizens of the world. "As you leave IU, carry with you some of that international vision that Chancellor (Herman B) Wells has fostered," Collins said. "In this cellular age, our nation's success will require more of you to be effective, engaged and enlightened participants of the world." Collins compared the ever-morphing roles of Russia and the U.S. as they head into the 21st century. continued

"Confrontation and conflict have characterized U.S. involvement," Collins said. "The involvement by members of Indiana's congressional delegation have encouraged involvement and have generated a sort of dynamism and momentum that's propelling our relationship with Russia forward. "As a legacy for this decade, we've made a beginning. The challenge you will face is how to improve upon it." Finally, Collins stressed the importance of becoming an active, informed participant in a democratic society. "Each of you will help to shape the contours of America's relations," he said. "Your choice will not be whether to join the cast, but how to play the part." Bloomington Chancellor Kenneth Gros Louis followed Collins in the program and stressed that all the world's good ideas had not been used up. "Celebrate 'the brain is wider than the sky' and `deeper than the sea' and the fact that Herman B Wells did not believe that all the good ideas were used up," he said, paraphrasing Emily Dickinson. "Develop a creative relationship with change. Meet it with your arms and minds open." The deans of each of the 12 schools conferring degrees proceeded to introduce their degree candidates, bringing cheers and personal expression like at no other time during the ceremony.

Kelley School of Business graduate Matt Nobbe said hearing his class called was the highlight of the ceremony. "Hearing your school called and just celebrating with your friends was the greatest," Nobbe said. College of Arts and Sciences graduate Michael Stevens, a history major, said graduation was just a lot of fun and the ceremony was excellent. "I think the speech that Collins gave was a little too political, but Gros Louis' quoting of Dickinson really did affect me," Stevens said. Shayna Young, a graduate from the School of Journalism, said the ceremony, itself, was meaningful and memorable. "I thought it was really honorable and a really special thing to get to do once in your life," Young said. "Even if the speakers touched on some topics that weren't completely applicable, it did have some parts that really touched you." Graduation 87

The curtains parted and a lone spotlight threw a hazy beam on the left corner of the stage illuminating two men dressed in leather vests, chaps and cowboy hats. An expression of confusion showed in their faces and one clutched a guitar. Then a voice from off stage echoed through the quiet of the auditorium, signaling the beginning of Delta Tau Delta and Delta Gamma's skit. "As the wild western wind blows, two cowboys have lost their way. They have lost their horses and their minds. All they have left to their names was Levi's trusty guitar. And their search continued west." The two men continued on to encounter a talking cactus, who helped show them a new way of life in the Wild West. And on Friday, Feb. 12, the women of Delta Gamma and the men of Delta Tau Delta's entrance on the stage of the Creative Arts Auditorium marked the end of four months of hard work leading up to IU Sing 1999. After all members of the 29 acts had sung, danced and acted before sold-out crowds, Delta Gamma and Delta Tau Delta's performance, "Mild Wild West," stole the judges vote, as they were named the overall winner of IU Sing 1999. continued

Sophomore Delta Gamma songleader, Katy Stephens, was speechless by her act's win. "I'm so amazed. I don't even know how much time we put into this," Stephens said. Stephens was just one of the many participants in the campuswide event held primarily to entertain the community and to raise money for working student scholarships. For 70 years, housing units sang and danced in the event started by Hoagy Carmichael in the early 1920s, which was later reorganized by Professor George E. Schlafer in the late 1920s. But the event officially became known as IU Sing in 1932 when the YMCA sponsored the production on the steps of the old Student Building. An enthusiasm pervaded the event through the century and 1U Sing 1999 marked the 20th year the IL: Student Foundation had run the show. Planning for the 67th IU Sing began for the six IUSF steering committee members during the summer before the 1998 fall semester. Seniors Eddie DeSalle, Sarah Derr, Derek Hoffman, Brian Mitchell, Matthew Skehan and Anne Sissel produced the event, beginning with determining the show's theme. The 1U Sing 1999

theme, "Any Swing Goes," was chosen to display the enthusiasm of the event and the reemergence of swing on the IU campus. The emcees, back-up vocalists and swing dancers opened each of the four shows with a medley of Big Band hits from the swing era to create a mood for the evening. And with more than 3,000 students participating in the event, the steering committee members interviewed and chose 37 students for their production staff, providing them with a support group to oversee the major and minor details of running a show of that magnitude. "There really is so much behind the scenes that goes unnoticed, but is checked clown to the smallest detail," Sissel said. Each act consisted of two to four songleaders who chose their act's theme, wrote the script, selected the songs, choreographed the seven-minute show, attended weekly meetings and held, sometimes, daily practices for act members. The show, held at the Creative Arts Auditorium for the second year because of renovation of the 1U Auditorium, consisted of two divisions, Divisions A — acts of 31-60 performers and Division B —

acts with 30 performers or less. Judges awarded points in four primary categories: musicianship, general effects, music and choreography. But creativity of themes marked the difference between the acts that placed in the two-day event. Parodies and satires were common, following the lead of 1998 winner, Phi Gamma Delta. Other acts included spoofs on Austin Powers and the greek system. The men of Pi Kappa Phi took home the "That's Entertainment Award" for their act which parodied the process of sorority nish. The men, clad in black pants, matching royal blue t-shirts with "Gamma" imprinted on the front and curly blond wigs, sang to Madonna's hit "Material World," Culture Club's "Do You Really Want to Hurt Me" and Rick Springfield's "Jessie's Girl." The crowd laughed and cheered the men dressed as women, and their act, "Rush Madness," placed first in Division B. Read Center's skit, "Austin Powers: Professional Student Extraordinaire," placed fourth behind Pi Kaps in Division B. Sophomore Kristiana Brugger participated in the act and choreographed the "Zoot Suit Riot" segment of their skit.

"It feels really wonderful being part of this performance.Bugger said. "We're having a really good time, the script is great... I'd love to do this again next year." But Phi Gamma Delta and their pair Phi Mu decided to play off Phi Gamma Delta's success of 1998's win. Their act, "What a Pair'ody," began with a man dressed in a maid's uniform belting out the lyrics to Jewel's "Foolish Games." The performance later featured participants clothed as a banana, jailbird, eight ball, red M&M, The Queen of Hearts and a camouflage cowboy had the audience chanting "I-U-Sing." But the humor of the act could not eclipse Phi Gamma Delta's 1998 success, and they placed second, behind Delta Gamma and Delta Tau Delta. Once the performances began the months of work paid off for the participants and staff. "When you're having a good time after all the work, you know that everything is taken care of," Sissel said. "Last night we just had to sit hack and hope everything turned out well."n

Mellencamp, a 47-year-old Hoosier who grew up in Seymour, Ind., and currently resides in Bloomington, opened his "Rural Electrification Tour April 24 at Assembly Hall as part of the Little 500 weekend festivities. His energy level seemed never-ending as he danced, pranced and ran around stage for an hour and a half, influencing freshman Farah Rivera to "totally want to go buy his greatest hits album." Mellencamp's entrance was long awaited after the opening band, Son Volt, played for nearly 45 minutes. Anticipating Mellencamp's next song, audience members erupted as they heard the familiar 1982 hit, "Jack and Diane." Mellencamp was barely audible due to the entire audience singing along. He held his microphone out to the audience during the final part of the song, as everyone in Assembly Hall sang, "Oh yeah life goes on, long after the thrill of livin' is gone." Mellencamp immediately pumped his fist in the air as the fans went crazy. Mellencamp played mostly older songs instead of songs from his self-titled album released in October. While the majority of audience members were still in elementary school when most of Mellencamp's older songs were popular, that did not deter anyone from recognizing and singing along with the songs. Mellencamp played hits such as "Lonely 01' Night," "R.O.C.K. in the USA," "Hurts So Good," "Pink Houses" and "The Authority Song." An unexpected event came when Mellencamp appeared onstage

alone with only his guitar. Pale purple lights illuminated his face as he sat atop a stool and played an acoustic version of the song "Your Life is Now." He seemed to be sending a message to the young group of fans with the lyrics "Your life is now. Your life is now. In

this undiscovered moment, lift your head up above the crowd. We could shake this world if you would only show us how," as they

swayed, clapped and sang along softly together. Another highlight of the evening came during the song "Hurts So Good," from his 1982 album, American Fool, when Mellencamp pulled freshman Philip Moeller onstage to sing the final verses with him. Moeller, a self-admitted "obsessed" fan of Mellencamp, said, "I was dead-center singing all the words so I made sure I got onstage." Moeller said he was not nervous at all, and the experience was "surrealistic." Moeller had been a huge Mellencamp fan for about three years. "I've probably listened to him more in those three years than most people have in a lifetime," Moeller said. The entire band enticed the crowd with its upbeat and lively energy levels. Backup vocalist Pat Peterson brought smiles to the fans' faces with her uncanny dancing and running all over the stage during the song "Wild Night." Mellencamp introduced the entire band toward the end of the show and thanked the audience. "We've had a lot of fun with you guys tonight and we appreciate it," Mellencamp said. Just when fans thought "Mr. Happy Go Lucky" was done for the evening, Mellencamp and company exploded into "Small Town," a song from his 1985 album Scarecrow, which was inspired by his hometown of Seymour. As he sang the final lyrics,"And that's probably where they'll billy me," Mellencamp thrust his arm in the air and waved to the entire audience. Mellencamp played one final song, "Check it Out," as the audience burst into cheers and whistles during the part, "Getting' too drunk on Saturdays," which seemed to cap off the Little 500 weekend.

Many tans agreed that their favorite song of the evening

was "jack and Diane." "My favorite was the beginning. He played Jack and Diane' and its a good song," freshman Katie Bardon said. Freshman John Barnes agreed. "I liked the way it started out," he said. "Jack and Diane' was the best song." Barnes was not an avid Mellencamp fan, but came because "I wanted to come with my boys and I'd never been to a Mellencamp concert before. I thought it was awesome that he just picked someone from the crowd and threw him up there to sing." Ending Little 500 weekend with an exclamation mark, Mellencamp left the students of Indiana University with these final words, "You know. I feel very lucky to have a place like this to come back to. Let's keep this town the way it was, keep it beautiful.-

KID ROCK CYPRUS HILL by ryan coleman

In 1998, the Phi Delta Theta fraternity defied the odds by hosting LL Cool J during Little 500 week. For a first-time effort, the fraternity and promoter Jason Millican pulled off quite a successful concert. On Thursday, April 22, with more time, energy, sponsors and organization, MusicFest '99 established itself as a Little 500 concert tradition. After a slew of local bands performed, Staind opened as the first national act of the festival to an estimated 9,000 attendees at Pie-A-Chic Farms.

There's no doubt about it — this group liked to scream and play hard rock and roll. Almost immediately into the group's set, a mosh pit formed and crowd surfing commenced. It appeared as if the site had magically transformed back to the early '905 when punk and grunge ruled America. After listening to old school Metallica-like sounds, the audience was treated to Kid Rock, who emerged from the backstage trailer holding two inflatable Jim Beam bottles. Rock's more than one-hour set explained and exclaimed all reasons why the "Kid" rocks. After opening with the first song of his new album, Rock thrashed, rapped and danced his way through almost all of his latest album. One of the biggest moments of the set came with the introduction of Joe C., a 23-year-old midget and member of

the Twisted Brown Trucker Band. "Indiana, where are the titties?" Joe C. squealed while smoking a fat joint, sending males and females in the attendance to a fevered pitch. Before finishing his set with "My name is Rock," Kid Rock thanked the crowd for its energy and for celebrating the announcement that his Devil Without a Cause album just went gold. Although fans would have never known it, Cypress Hill almost didn't follow Kid Rock on stage because of travel complications. A snowed-in Denver airport resulted in the cancellation of the group's flight to Indianapolis. The group instead caught a connection to Columbus and took a fourhour limousine ride to the concert site. continued

Despite this mess, Cypress Hill stepped onto the stage on time and the audience eagerly digested its hemp-infused sound.

One of the funnier moments of the evening came when Sen Dog asked attendees to throw bras onto the stage. "Itty bitty titties," B-Real exclaimed while examining the first bra thrown on stage. Later, a female fan reached the stage and sang along with B-Real. After the song, she told to the crowd it was her birthday. B-Real then led the crowd in singing the birthday song and the girl, trying her hardest to reveal as much skin as legally possible, spent the rest of the concert dancing on and off the stage. Cypress Hill closed the evening with "Mr. Green Thumb" in honor of the band's most important non-music agenda, promoting the virtues of dope. All told, MusicFest provided a diverse, if not eclectic mix of local, up-and-coming and nationally established groups.ri A member of the crowd goes crazy during Cypress Hill's performance April 22.

1\4ik\tip Dancers work through hours of rehearsals in pursuit of their dream BY KELLY ANN SI,OAN

The Indiana University ballet filled its 1998-99 season with hard work, along with exciting performances of classic favorites and world premieres. It was a rare occasion to see a ballet dancer walking around campus in the afternoon, because every day, from 11:30 a.m. to 5:45 p.m., III's fifty ballet majors were in the third floor studios of the Musical Arts Center. There they practiced their technique and rehearsed for upcoming performances. After a morning of academic classes, the dancers started the afternoons with an hour and a half technique class at the MAC, followed by an hour of pointe class for women and a men's jumping and turning class, ending with hours of rehearsals for various pieces. Even though the day became tiring, many students also took evening academic classes. "It is definitely a challenge to fill in all of my classes," sophomore Erica Jeffrey said. "There is never an instant when I don't have something to do, but I love having the opportunity to pursue two of my passions — dance and academics." The experience of performing together developed close relationships in the small dance department. "I have made the closest friends in my life through the ballet department," senior Jean McClellan said. "I wouldn't give up the past four years for anything." The Fall Ballet, held Oct. 9-10, and the Spring Ballet, held April 2-3, both presented an array of works in classical, neoclassical and contemporary styles. The demanding, precise choreography of ballet legend George Balanchine was displayed in "Divertimento #15" and Tchaikovsky's "Pas de Deux." Canadian choreographer Mark Godden visited in the fall to stage his ballet "Outside Looking In" with several dancers. A particular audience favorite was Professor Jacques Ceshron's original choreography to "Rite of Spring," premiering at the Spring Ballet. The story behind the powerful Stravinsky score was about a deep love of the earth and included a reminder of the sacred rite to sacrifice a young girl for the return of spring. The dancers chose a maiden who danced until she died, and her body was thrown toward the sky at the conclusion of the music. The holiday season would not have been complete without the annual performance of Tchaikovsky's "The 106 Entertainment

Nutcracker," and IU Ballet Theater delighted all ages with the magical dances of toy soldiers, waltzing flowers and sugarplum fairies. Featuring new choreography by Cesbron, sets by C. David Higgins, 225 colorful costumes and over 100 local children, the dancers performed four sold-out shows. As an added treat for audiences, Ballet Theatre American principal dancers Julie Kent and Jose Manuel Carreno played the roles of the sugarplum fairy and her cavalier for two performances. The ballet department started 1999 by collaborating with the American Ballet Theatre Studio Company for its four-week residency at the School of Music. From Jan. 17 - Feb. 11, dancers from the New York troupe took daily ballet classes and rehearsed with the ballet majors. "The guest residency works well because the ballet department at IU is so strong," said John Meehan, artistic director of the ABT Studio Company. "I am very impressed with how professional, eager, and attentive the students are." At the conclusion of the residency, both ABT dancers and ballet majors presented the "New Choreography Showcase" featuring works by IU ballet faculty Cesbron and Violette Verdy, along with Meehan and Australian guest choreographer Natalie Weir. Selected dancers also appeared in the IU Opera Theater's productions of "Orpheus in the Underworld."Carmen" and "Mass." Eleven ballet majors also choreographed works for the Student Choreographic Workshop held April 21-22. While many dancers could not find time to spend an afternoon in Dunn Meadow, their hard work paid off on stage. The blend of grace, athleticism and dedication made IU Ballet Theatre one of Indiana University's most precious secrets. ri

Bringing a tour to campuses across the nation, MTV exhibited new bands and new music, while holding auditions for "Road Rules" and "The Real World".

MTV invaded campus Nov. 14 with futuristic instruments and interactive music samples. The highlight of the weekend came at the end when Third Eye Blind and Eve 6 performed a sold-out show in the Wildermuth gymnasium. As a bonus, MTV also provided students with a chance to audition for its shows, the "Real World" and "Road Rules." "I don't see why anyone wouldn't want to do this. The possibility of a great time in Hawaii, 15 minutes of fame stretched out over three months, and everybody watching you," said junior Brandon McKay, listing the perks of being cast on MTV's popular "Real World." Many of IU's megalomaniacs who desired a timeslot on MTV showed up in Dunn Meadow Nov.15 and braved the audition process of an application, a lengthy line, a megaphone-crazed casting associate and a 60-second interview before a camera. IU's Union Board was the force behind the exciting day. "Everything has been running smoothly. MTV and the Union Board should consider this day a success," said freshman Diane Rhein, a member of the UB promotional committee.

Thinking of the tension and insanity found on the "Real World," many students considered themselves a viable "normal" person or mediator for the Hawaii household, which will run a performance art center and coffee shop. "I was quite surprised that in Bloomington there would be such an excellent turnout. People are quite open and energetic. Hopefully some students will be chosen. Approximately 10 people can be chosen for the next level of tryouts, the interviews," said Jeff Van Fossen, project manager of the audition tent. However, the audition tent wasn't the only crowded part of the MTV Interactive Village. The Experimental Music Tent drew a large crowd as a musician performed on the hydra, a computerized machine which created beats and noise when someone touched its infrared beams. Invited to experiment on the hydra, sophomore A.K. Murtadha experienced what MTV considered the future of music. "Basically its like a keyboard, customized for a show. The fact it creates off movement is lovely, but it's all about programming and hitting the beams," Murtadha said. "Stevie Wonder can sit at a keyboard and be as brilliant." Beside the tent, sitting in the grass with their skateboard and munching on popcorn, seniors Josh Cline and Gabriel Jiggs watched the action. "It's very experimental and I would love music to travel this path. It's something fresh and new," Cline said, as the hydra rattled the tent with the occasional James Bond theme and jungle beats. Jiggs had a different take on the instrument. "Yeah, its a definite avenue music will take, but raw instruments, you can't bury them. I don't think people will be giving up their guitars for computers anytime soon," he said. MTV also showcased new music later that night at

the Third Eye Blind and Eve 6 concert. The Wildermuth gymnasium, with a smokey haze hovering above the sold-out crowd, filled quickly. The gymnasium was the only venue available that could hold that size of a crowd since the Auditorium was closed for renovations. Eve 6, hitting the stage with a cheerful "Greetings!," produced a high energy, 10-song set which featured its hits "Inside Out," "Beach" and "Nightlight." This song was thick with audience interaction as students clapped along, held up lighters, shrieked and gave "rawk" signs to Eve 6. Third Eye Blind's set began with a silhouette of a gyrating woman and the band projected on a yellow curtain, which dropped with a literal flash. The crowd quickly whipped itself up into a frenzy as the quartet worked its way through 17 songs and a two-song encore. Lead singer Stephan Jenkins sauntered back and forth across the stage, sat in an overstuffed armchair set high above and climbed on top of the amps. The band dedicated the show to "Superfreak" Rick James. A blinding white light accompanied the song "Jumper" on stage, a stark contrast to the prismatic lights used throughout the show. Nine songs in, they reverted to a frenetic acoustic set with the song, "Tattoo of the Sun." They switched back to electricity with a new song, "Gorgeous" and "How's It Gonna Be?" while some IU ladies danced on stage. The show closed out with "Semi-Charmed Life" and "Graduate," during which a student climbed atop one of the gym's basketball hoops. Erin Tuttle, a senior and promotions director of the Union Board, enjoyed the weekend's events. thought it was fun. It exposed students to more of MTV and made them feel they had more of an input into MTV than they normally do," she said. "It wasnice to know that IU was chosen to be a part of this tour. It says a lot about IU and its students." in

As an alternative to the usual bar scene, Bear's Place's Comedy Caravan draws the crowds in

Comedy Caravan opening comedian Bob Wise did not let the audience forget he was an overweight man with a double chin and Santa Claus suspenders. "I don't do jokes about dope or drugs, because Lord knows I don't need anytkiing to give me munchies," Wise said. Later he apologized to the audience for continually wiping his face with a towel. "If my water breaks, we're all drowning." he explained. The jokes were funny. The comedians were witty. The audience was attentive and cheery. And Comedy Caravan became a high-ranking activity for the over-21 crowd of Bloomington during the past year. Master of Ceremonies Brad Wilhelm told the audience the most important rule for guests at Bear's Place on Monday and Saturday nights was -to laugh your kicking ass off." Anyone who went to Bear's Place either night learned this rule could have went unstated. Thanks to a booking agent in Louisville, Bear's Place introduced nationally-renowned comedians to Bloomington during its famous Comedy Caravan. continited

More intimate than the setting of "Seinfeld," Bear's Place more closely resembled an underground coffee shop than a comedy club. "It is small and cozy, senior Ben Miller said. "There are good seats and good prices on drinks." As the empty tavern began to fill, the atmosphere changed to a picturesque informal bar. Ten minutes before showtime, the master of ceremonies informed couples and friends in booths that they needed to scoot over and make room for others due to a sold-out show and the lack of abundant seating. Lots of cigarettes, lots of beer, lots of Bear's Place Long Island Iced Tea and Hairy Bear pitchers filled the tables. The crowd became more cozy and talkative with each other and the entertainer in charge. Senior Greg Sheldon credited the crowd excitement to the topics the comedians chose. "(The comedians) did a lot of sexual jokes, which is really popular with college students," Sheldon said of Feb. 15 comedians Bob Wise and Joe Dunkel. Dunkel compared college guys, who stereotypically get overexcited about sex, to himself, a man married to the same woman for some 25 years, who has no sexual positions or locations left to imagine or explore. He not only joked about the sex life of college students, married couples and different sexual perspectives of men and women, but he also dressed up as Captain Condom, complete with a plastic cape and a pointed plastic shower cap. He "flew" around the stage and sang a song about the strenuous duties of a condom. "Last night was Valentine's Day. I want to see a show of hands. How many of you got laid last night?" Wilhelm asked. After a weak response from the audience, he said, "Youth is wasted on the young." The comediens targeted college students. Dunkel had performed at over 700 colleges during his 20 years on the road. "How old are you?" he asked of a gentleman sitting in the front row. "Twenty-one," the guy cockily responded between sips of his beer. "I've got a booger that old," the comedian said. The witty improv, openness of topics and interaction with the crowd kept the students rolling into Bear's Place every Monday and Saturday night at both the early and late shows. Without an advance ticket, there was no guarantee for a seat. "It is something more mature to do. You feel like you're not in Bloomington for a night." junior Brian Slucker said.El

PROFILE

Voices of Hope celebrates its 25th anniversary with song and spirit n a campus as big as Indiana University's, it was easy for students to get lost in the crowd. To offset this trend, some students joined organizations that fostered relationships and made them part of something meaningful. The students in Voices of Hope found this in their choir, a group that brought faith into their busy lives. Each Tuesday evening, the 30 to 40 members of the campus gospel choir, Voices of Hope, convened at the University Center of Ministry for rehearsal. Typically they began with 20 to 30 minutes of devotion. Following that someone from the chapel would come to sing to them and read scripture. They took prayer requests and found out about their various engagements, then continued to rehearse. "The people encourage us to live what we sing," freshman Brian Reeves said. In November, Voices of Hope celebrated its 25th anniversary. Many alumni came back to participate in the celebration, enjoying fellowship with the new members as they sang old and new songs together. "It was so beautiful to be a part of the 25th year," sophomore Natalie Harris said. "I was excited to be a part of it." The group often traveled to Indianapolis to perform as well as going to churches of the many members. They usually performed about 20 times a year around Bloomington. Sophomore Tamia Collins remembered a time when the choir visited one of the director's churches. "It felt like we touched a lot of people," she said. "I have always been involved in religion and this is a good network to meet other Christian people." Voices of Hope also traveled to Northern Indiana, performing in LaPorte and Michigan City. "We got the opportunity to minister to those who don't often listen to gospel music," Harris said. Students often sought out Voices of Hope because of the fellowship it provided. "I wanted a group that could identify with me spiritually and culturally," Harris said. "It is a good outlet where we have devotion and pray.Reeves also found his place as a member of the choir. "Being a Christian I wanted to be in things to keep my faith going," Reeves said. "On that campus it is easy to be swallowed up.-

JEFF HIATT

1 ome students may have thought hardly anyone at IU was into jazz. Senior Jeff Hiatt disagreed. "A lot of young people 1..._ are into improvised music... Bands like The Grateful Dead or Phish, people are interested in instrumental music," Hiatt said. "I mean, shit, how many hundred people take David Baker's (jazz appreciation) class?" And Bloomington's jazz scene always presented the community with an array of talent. The scene produced Bob Hurst, who had since played with Wynton and Bradford Marsalis and now played with the Tonight Show Band and IU graduate Michael Weiss, a jazz pianist who went on to play with Miles Davis. For those unfamiliar with the Bloomington jazz scene, hooking up with avante garde jazz in the middle of Indiana was much easier than it seemed. Even an underage student could usually catch the Gyrogenics at the Encore Cafe on Sunday nights, or the jazz trio, The 3rd Man, at Borders Books and Music on Saturdays. The 3rd Man's acoustic bass player, Jack Helsley, coaxed long, resonating bottom-tones that bridged the pulsing drumwork and softened the last edges of guitarist Peter Kienle's lazy, carefree melody in "Blind Spot." Later on at Bear's Place Faun Tumnus threw around some wilder sounds with Brent Courtney on baritone saxophone pumping long phrases of erratic rhythm. Monday night performances at the Musical Arts Center presented the best underage jazz venue, especially for students without much money to spare. When Professor Emeritus David Baker, the man who established the prestige of the IU jazz department, made his way to the podium to conduct his ensemble, the students saluted him with stomping feet. The downbeat brought one of Baker's own Bebop compositions to life.

Bear's Place presented a weekly Jazz Fables show on Thursdays. The emcee of the Jazz Fables series, trumpeter David Miller, played and booked the gig for ten years. "It's not a house hand with some guests as it started out," Miller said. "We have a different concert and group every week." Miller regularly booked IU jazz students as well as jazz veterans like Jamey Abersold, IU graduate Jeff Hamilton (who has played with professional musicians, Oscar Peterson and Woody Herman), and Indianapolis jazz sax legends, Jimmy Coe and Alonzo "Pookie" Johnson. Guitarist Marcos Cavalcante took the stage at Bear's Place with Janiece Jaffe. "Rain on the Roses," mellowed the crowd down, a carefree and soothing (common adjectives for Cavalcante's arrangements) piece with lyrics written and voiced by Janiece Jaffe. From Brazil, Cavalcante's Bossa Nova rhythms and traditions were mottled by American styles, like the blues. "I'm thrilled that you all came to hear Bossa Nova," Cavalcante said, "but one of the reasons that I came to the United States was

because I like American music." Some local musicians served soul relleno with steaming funk for those who craved the hot stuff. At Bear's Place, Drummer Deno Sanders, who some thought pushed the best James Brown rhythm in Bloomington. punched beats tomake the crowd hop. Josh Suhrheinrich, with his trio, heated the air with his guitar improvisations that sang the blues. Bassist Jeff Hiatt, also of Gyrogenics, clipped his creative bursts to liven combos from the very funky Guest House to performances by the IU jazz faculty. Bloomington's jazz scene was easily accessible to everyone in the community. Second Story's music schedule booked Chicago bands like Tortoise and the free jazz group, Vandermark Five. People could also be found enjoying live performances at Django Jazz Cafe on Friday evenings. Tuesday nights at the Cellar Lounge and Wednesdays at the Upland brewery also provided many with a jazz fix. The buzz of creativity was fascinating; and for many, too much improvisation was never enough.

In a moderate-sized room of the Food Services Building at the corner of Eleventh and Rogers, a voice lectured and pens scribbled furiously on crisp sheets of paper. Held late in the evening, the class met for two hours once a week for four weeks. The lecture topic: Winetasting. Each week the Creative Learning Center class toured the world, and although a passport was unnecessary, the students' journey did require two wine glasses, a clean palette and a thirst for knowledge. Exploring the wine regions of France, Germany, Italy and California resulted in learning about the particular region's grape varieties and the wine produced, along with tasting wines characteristic of the region. But before the actual tasting process began, students had to learn the proper technique for tasting wine and some beginning wine terminology. Basic instructions included preparation information for red and white wines, how much wine should be poured in each glass, how to smell a wine and how to actually taste a wine to capitalize on its full bouquet. Intrigued by the idea of increasing her knowledge about the cultural and social aspects of winetasting, senior Halle Simpson enrolled in the class. "I expected to learn what to look for when tasting wine and how to taste the different flavors," she said. "But mostly I just wanted to learn how to taste wines correctly." Instructor Patrick O'Brien wanted the class to be fun, but he also wanted his students to have basic knowledge of all aspects of winemaking and tasting for their future pursuits. "I'd like them to mostly learn about the major grape varieties that go into wine. And I think it's important for them to know at least a little hit about grape growing and winemaking so that they can have a springboard for furthering their knowledge of wine if they want," O'Brien said. "And I'd like them to have an idea of the amazing range of tastes and aromas that you can get from wine. But mostly I just want them to have fun." O'Brien, a professional archeologist and supervisor of Cultural Resource Management for the Glenn A. Black Laboratory of Archeology on campus, discovered his interest in wine when he moved to Bloomington from Los Angeles in 1994. O'Brien enrolled in the winetasting class through the CLC, then taught by Cooper Speaks. His interest piqued, O'Brien later took some of the advanced winetasting classes taught by Speaks from his home. When Speaks retired after 15 years of teaching the class, he recommended that the CLC hire O'Brien as his replacement. When O'Brien took over, he had to narrow down the range of possible material and wine regions he would include. The class focused primarily on the Loire Valley, Bordeaux, Borgogne (Burgundy) and the Rhone Valley in France; the Mosel-Saar-Ruwer and Rheingau regions of Germany; Piemonte (Piedmont), Lombardia (Lombardy), Toscana (Tuscany) and Umbria in Italy; and Washington, Oregon and California — the primary winegrowing regions of the United States. continued

Winetasting class introduces students to the art of cultural and social wine appreciation

Winetasting 129

O'Brien chose these particular wine regions so his students had an opportunity to taste many different grape varieties. "I want them to be able to taste wines from some of the world's most famous wine regions," O'Brien said. "And I also want them to be able to taste wines from as many different countries as I can because there are great growing regions in so many countries in the world." Since it was a beginning wine class, O'Brien said most of the students preferred the wines of Germany because they were white wines and more approachable for introductory students. "However, there's always an increasingly large contingent of students in each class that really focus on the red winesand tend to like the ones that are labeled varietally, that is they have a grape name on their label." O'Brien said. "California is a very popular region." For senior Melissa Hangartner, the wine class offered a means to learn about different wines and to increase her knowledge of the winemaking process. The California native, who had previously gone winetasting in Napa Valley, enjoyed her tour of the famous wine regions, butstill enjoyed learning

about her home state the most. "I really enjoyed doing the California wines just because I'm from California, so it was interesting to get more of a historical perspective and just kind of learn more about the region and stuff that I haven't learned from actually visiting the wineries," Hangartner said. "And then I also really enjoyed studying France just because that's the main place for wineries and there are so many different regions, so many different kinds of grapes, different kinds of wines that come from there. They have the most famous wines, which is interesting to get some background knowledge on, especially since I'm going to he going to Europe this summer. It was nice to find out a little information so that when I go and visit the wineries thereI'll have some idea what they're talking about.And no different from any other class, O'Brien fielded many questions from interested students which varied with each group. Yet there was one question he was always asked, one he called an unanswerable question, "What's the best bottle of wine out there for less than $10 or $12?" "It's just impossible to say because it's something you have

to learn on your own by trying stuff and going out and shopping around and gaining more and more knowledge about wine and I can't answer that question in class because I am only telling them what I think are the best wines," O'Brien said. "Usually what I think are the best wines are big, heavy red wines and if half the class doesn't like big, heavy red wines then I'm not really telling them what they want to know and it's a hard question to answer." One of the most important things Simpson gained from the class was how to answer O'Brien's unanswerable question for herself. "One of the most valuable things I learned was how to read a bottle and actually be able to understand what all the different words meant, especially with wine from foreign countries," Simpson said. "Now I know about many of the different grape varieties and also know what kind of wine I'm drinking. I don't have to guess the quality of a wine just by looking at the price. I also found it interesting how the foreign countries have an established set of government standards rating the wines made in its country and I know the quality of wine I'm buying based on those standards." Hangartner also found the class met her expectations. "I thought it was a great class ... It was really fun because its not very often that we were going to just randomly get to try wines from Germany and from Italy, from France and from all these different regions," Hangartner said. "And I thought the teacher was great. He was very enthusiastic. He knew a lot, it wasn't like he had just read about it, he had experienced everything. So I really enjoyed listening to him and just kind of getting his opinion on certain things." O'Brien's advice to those interested in learning more about wine was to take a class or at least to get together with friends with a specific goal to learn something about a set of wines instead of just sitting around drinking. For O'Brien, who still takes advanced winetasting classes with friends, the art of winetasting remains a learning process, as there are new vintages and types of wine on the market each season. "I really enjoy teaching the class. I think it's fun, not only hopefully fun for the students, but for me," O'Brien said. "It's a great thing to do on the side. Not only is it fun to teach it, but everytime I teach it I learn something new, not only about the students, but about wine." ti Above: Senior Jennifer Mahaffey takes notes while senior Mary Singleton takes a sip from her glass of wine.

Mardi

D ark Gras Experience South

New Orleans hosted the 1999 Mardi Gras with a record two million Mardi Gras disciples, who converged on the "Big Easy" seeking celebration and debauchery. Since its inception in second-century Rome, the carnival leading up to the Fast of Lent which is now known by its French name, Mardi Gras, has been about giving oneself up to the flesh. "You hear so many stories about Mardi Gras, you just have to see it for yourself," senior Colleen Grady said. "It doesn't matter what you do(on Bourbon Street.) No one cares, not even the cops." The indifference gave Mardi Gras an essence of recklessness and danger that allowed for outrageous behavior. For the 1999 Mardi Gras, this included a bar fight that began in a small pub on Vets Boulevard. The fight resulted in the arrest of 25 people and injuries to four police, according to the New Orleans Times-Piccune. In another case, one man was shot to death on Bourbon Street in broad daylight. Even the more tame instances of Mardi Gras contained an element of the warped. continued

Party by day, party by night, Mardi Gras was a visual orgy of floats, beads, masks, drinks, faces and the fantastic. Canal street was no exception as the main drag for the many parade routes. The street filled to capacity as the sea of people jumped and screamed for the coveted purple, gold and green beads. Photo by Jensen Walker.

Many people have heard the chant, or seen the spectacle of Mardi Gras. "Show your tics." It is no lie and it is no myth. Bourbon street was a marketplace of flesh and freedom reaching everyone. Some lost control, some could not remember and others reveled in the modern-day Roman orgy. Photo by Jensen Walker.

One young bead-hungry woman was willing to lift her skirt for unsuspecting audiences — spectators soon realized Adriene Daniles was a man. Another man's quest for the coveted Mardi Gras beads took a dangerous turn when the man blindly, chasing heads beside a float, found himself pinned and crushed by the following float. "He had just caught some heads and he was running back to catch a coconut," police spokesman Jeffery Johnson said. "He forgot about the tractor and it fractured his ankle." Senior Rodney Bowman experienced some of the Mardi Gras fever firsthand. "One time we were trying to catch some heads," Bowman said. "My girlfriend was standing back away from the crowd. Six surrounded her, trying to get her to lift her top. One of the guys pulled down his pants, so I just ran in and put my arms around her and ran Out." Bowman made the trip along with friends and his girlfriend. Although Bowman had been planning the trip for about two months, many of the details were left to the last minute. For senior Colleen Grady, the decision to experience Mardi Gras also came at the last minute. Grady stayed at Tulane University, stationed a mere 20 minutes from the chaos of Bourbon Street. "We kind of went clown on a whim." Grady said. "The night before we left, I called a friend at Tulane, and she said it would be

alright to stay, but we weren't real postive that we would even have a place to stay." Bowman and Grady were lucky enough to stay with friends who lived in New Orleans. However, some participants who made plans at the last moment were not as lucky. "We ended up sleeping in the car," said IU student Nadie Fazio, "We had no showers. We brushed our teeth and washed our faces in the bathroom of, like a Subway or something.I have new respect for homeless people after that." This anything-goes attitude had been a part of the Mardi Gras myth since its inception. The observance of Mardi Gras first appeared in Rome as a carnival the day before the start of Lent. The participants donned masks and rejoiced to the pre-Christian Gods of Old. Mardi Gras functioned as one last celebration of the flesh before the asceticism of Lent. When the French settled Louisiana, they brought the traditional Mardi Gras celebration with them. When the Spanish gained control of the area, they banned the celebration. In 1827, the practice was revived in the nowAmerican territory. Aristocratic Americans who had studied in France revived the tradition by donning masks and dancing through the streets of New Orleans. Since then, the celebration has grown in size and scope, but the basic element of surrendering to the flesh remained the impetus behind the celebration.

"I saw two fights night after last." Bowman said. "It was our last night. Just right off Canal I saw this huge rumble with 20 people. The cops were just outnumbered, so they just ignored it." Permissiveness has always permeated New Orleans during Mardi Gras. Until 1998, Louisiana was the last state in the Union that retained a legal drinking age of 18. After the federal government threatened to cut highway funding, Louisiana complied and joined the rest of America, raising the drinking age to 21. However, this law was only loosely enforced. "The second day we decided to get out of New Orleans, so we went to Butte LaRose, Louisiana." Bowman said."It was this little hick town about 20 miles outside of New Orleans. They had a little parade, but it was crazy. I saw what must have been 12-year-olds getting drunk in the streets." Mardi Gras was a celebration that encompassed all age groups. Grady said she went down to New Orleans expecting a young, college-age crowd. "What really surprised me was the number of old people I saw on the streets. I mean I couldn't imagine my parents on Bourbon Street. After t e para es is wlen Bour on got rea y ba ." Grail)/ said. "The place just went nuts It was the dirtiest filthiest place I. have ever seen." The French Quarter had always been the focus of Mardi Gras

and Bourbon Street its epicenter. Starting as early as 10 a.m. or as late as 9 p.m., huge floats lumbered down a parade route that stretched four miles. The parades ended on Canal just a few blocks from the heart of Bourbon. After the parades, the participants filtered down into Bourbon. With shoulder-to-shoulder crowds, the six-block strip transformed the narrow brick street into a living river of human traffic. "As the night went on, Bourbon got had," Grady said. "On Saturday night we decided to hang out at Tulane, because Bourbon was nuts. We were staying at Tulane in this apartment with like 20 people. "One morning we woke up and there was this really old bald guy sleeping on the floor. No one knew who he was. It turns out he was the ex-boyfriend of one of the girls who lives there. We asked him to leave, and he just rolled over to told us to shut the fuck up." When two million people packed into a city, normally home to 500,000, the result could become overpowering. With the reckless abandon of Mardi Gras exacerbating the situation, the results became dangerous. Despite this, year after year, people made the pilgrimage to New Orleans in search of a good time. "Satur ay nig tt aroune mi nig n on Bourson,it got so crowded we couldn't move," said Fazio, "I wasn't really scared, just overwhelmed. Still if anyone asked me whether or not to go, I would definitely say yes, just to experience it once." Ei

s the first signs of spring awakened the Bloomington campus, students could be seen studying, playing or just relaxing on the University's well-manicured lawns. But on the evening of April 6, students crowded Dunn Meadow for three hours for an entirely different reason — the confrontation of alcohol abuse on campus. The national program advocating the prevention of alcohol abuse and alcohol-related deaths on campus, "Not Here ... Never Again," reminded students of the dangers of alcohol and gave them a chance to pledge their support in preventing alcohol-related deaths on campus. Randy Haveson, a former alcoholic celebrating 15 years of sobriety, talked to the attendees about his personal battle with the addiction. Haveson told students how his abuse of alcohol later turned to his use of marijuana, cocaine and LSD. Forced to drop out of school, he suffered a heart attack at 21 after overdosing on cocaine. And it wasn't until three years later that he finally realized he needed to turn his life around. "I sat in the bathroom with a knife in my hand debating whether

to cut my wrist or my throat," he said. "It was thenI made eye contact with myself in the mirror and realized I had a problem." Haveson's flirtation with suicide spurred him to action and his first step was attending Alcoholics Anonymous meetings, which led to his need to remind others that alcohol abuse has its consequences. "You need to learn to make other people responsible for their actions," he said. "Let people wake up in their pool of vomit to realize their drinking has consequences." The realistic aspect of Haveson's speech touched many members of the audience, as students huddled together in groups. Moved to tears, friends comforted one another as Haveson's words struck close to home. The Beginning

As the first semester of the 1998-99 school year came to a close, the administration and students seemed to relax before the finals week onslaught began. The greek system had begun to repair its

somewhat tarnished reputation in the aftermath of the hazing scandal concerning the Zeta Beta Tau fraternity during the 1997-98 school year. Rush numbers were up. A new, stronger risk management system was securely in place at all parties and the dry campus ruling remained loosely enforced. But the other shoe the greek system so tremulously held onto dropped with a resounding thud in mid-December, its crash reaching far beyond the greek community. In the afternoon Dec. 13, sophomore Joseph Bisanz, a member of the Pi Kappa Alpha fraternity, died at Bloomington Hospital. Monroe County Coroner George Huntington listed the cause of Bisanz' death as "partially from asphyxiation, partially from a well-elevated level of alcohol." And although Huntington listed alcohol as one of the causes of death. he was clear to state Bisanz did not die from alcohol poisoning. Bisanz apparently went to bed and suffered from a fall from his loft about an hour later and was found unconscious by members of the fraternity, who then rushed him to the hospital.

M YLES B RAND I U P RESIDENT

Members of the fraternity and campus left Bloomington in shock at the end of the semester. What no one thought could happen to them or to friends finally had. and many considered Bisanz' death a freak accident, one that should have been preventable. That new theory of prevention would be how the community decided to tackle the issue when the students returned from winter break. The Campus Reaction Students returned to a campus with a new outlook on alcohol enforcement, with the headline on Jan. 11 of the Indiana Daily Student, "University ups alcohol enforcement." IU President Myles Brand instituted a new alcohol policy in the wake of the tragedy which would give University officials the right to contact a student's parents if their child violated the alcohol laws and/or University alcohol regulations. Previously, students had just received a citation. As a guest columnist in the IDS, Brand addressed his new, harsher policy and the comments he had heard about Bisanz' death being a fluke, a freak accident. "Those people are taking exactly the wrong message from this tragedy," Brand said. "The real lesson is this: Overindulgence in alcohol carries risks — sometimes lethal risks. Joseph Bisanz' death was an accident, but a thoroughly preventable one. "At least 20 people have died from alcohol-related causes on college campuses nationwide in 1998. They were all sure that it

couldn't happen to them. "1 his student's death also left me angry and frustrated. The possibility of such a tragedy at IU has been a major reason why I have been outspoken on the issue of alcohol abuse and binge drinking." Brand was not the only IU administrator to propose a harder resolve in dealing with alcohol abuse on campus. Richard McKaig, the vice chancellor for student affairs and dean of students, informed the greek community that he and his staff would no longer turn a blind eye when it came to on-campus fraternity parties, as had frequently been the case in the past. McKaig's first step was to file judicial board charges against Pi Kappa Alpha in reaction to Bisanz' death. The charges related to the house's violation of the no-alcohol policy in the Code of Student Ethics, which prohibited possession of alcohol on campussupervised housing or in greek houses. The fraternity was also placed on summary suspension pending the verdict. The summary suspension would prohibit the fraternity from participating as an organization on campus. Assistant Dean of Students Jim Gibson commented that although the University administrators and police would be watching students more closely, they would not be monitoring their actions 24 hours a day. "It was a horrible thing for one of our member chapters to go through and our prayers and thoughts have been with them since it

happened," Gibson said. The new policy will hopefully help students realize that irresponsible drinking is dangerous, no matter if it's in the residence halls, off campus or in greek housing." With the new alcohol policy in effect, senior John Beaumont, Interfraternity Council Risk Management vice president, asked each chapter to establish a moratorium period for fraternity events. "I would anticipate all chapter presidents would vote not to have functions out of respect and for safety issues. Its just unfortunate that an incident like this had to occur for people to open their eyes." Beaumont said. "I think people are going to say the way things have been going in the past have not necessarily been safe and we have to change our ways." With the advent of change, on Jan. 19 theIDS presented a forum of opinions regarding the state of alcohol abuse on campus, with student and faculty opinions represented in two full pages of newsprint. Megan McCarthy, an alcohol and drug peer educator for Collins Living-Learning Center wrote how binge drinking was not the norm in college, in a plea to encourage students to still have fun without the need to drink. "In the United States' colleges and universities, it is NOT THE NORM to hinge drink, MOST COLLEGE STUDENTS IN THE UNITED STATES DON'T BINGE DRINK!" McCarthy said. "So the next time you see everyone around you binge drinking, puking, passing out and putting their lives in danger, remember — you're the normal one." contiiiteed

Nancy Riggert, the director of the IU alcohol-drug information center, addressed the idea that a multifaceted solution was necessary for a problem of this complexity. "I believe it will take a multifaceted approach, using all these suggestions and more, to change the culture. This means involving the entire campus along with community members, alumni and parents working together to address this issue in a comprehensive way," Riggert said. "No more one-shot silver bullet solutions. I have never seen one work on a problem this large or complex. It will also take patience and tenaciousness, because a culture does not change overnight if we are looking for true long-term positive change." The Repercussions On Feb. 17, McKaig and Pi Kappa Alpha's national organization officially suspended the fraternity for its violation of the University's alcohol policy. The consequences of the suspension were that the fraternity could not participate in or hold events at IU, the chapter had to hire a live-in director for at least four years, an alumni board would oversee the house during suspension and all recent members were given alumni status.

"It doesn't exist," said Gibson, in talking about the consequences of suspension. "It no longer functions as a student organization at IU." The instituted suspension would last for a year and was a much lighter verdict than complete expulsion, which was recommended by the Office of Student Ethics hearing officer. McKaig decided to reject the suggestion. "In recognition of what this has cost them and in recognition for an appropriate response at a time of tragedy, I felt suspension was adequate," McKaig said. Unwilling to be the next example, sororities and fraternities held relatively few parties, if any. Instead, houses began to rent out local bars, like The Gables and BW-3, to host dances. The dances allowed the under-21 members to still participate in the social atmosphere of greek life, while those 21 and over could legally drink and still hang out with younger friends. With the moratorium on fraternity parties, the local bar scene became more crowded and more off-campus parties occurred, especially as Little 500 drew closer. On March 25-26, the Bloomington Police Department began the fifth year of "Party Patrols," with the specific goal to search out illegal consumption at

reeks have not turned a deaf car to this incident ... The old days of off-campus parties. The BPD's crackdown stemmed from an incident that occurred at Varsity Villas during the 1991 Little 500 weekend, when a car was turned over after a party got out of control. Yet the first weekend proved to be uneventful for the plain clothes officers out on patrol. Driving unmarked cars, the officers visited the site of any parties creating a disturbance or causing complaints. The special patrols also searched out signs of loud music, people crowded on porches or lawns and those who appeared to be under 21. During the first weekend no arrests were made or citations written, compared to a record-number 117 arrests made during the first weekend of "Party Patrols" in 1998. The officers' work peaked April 17-18, as they issued a combined 173 citations for illegal consumption and furnishing alcohol to minors, topping 1998's record. BPD Lt. jimmy Ratcliff said the large number of arrests were expected as the numbers had been steadily increasing since the inception of "Party Patrols." "(The number) has been pretty close to what we have been doing over the past couple of years," Ratcliff said "It used to be that we cited loud parties that had people over 21 at them. In the past few years we have been citing more and more 18- and 19-year-olds."

The End As Haveson's speech wound down in Dunn Meadow, students moved forward in groups or alone to sign a banner pledging their support for preventing alcohol-related deaths on campus. Not Here ... Never Again" drew to its conclusion with a formal tribute to Bisanz, serving as a remembrance to make sure the effects of alcohol would not be forgotten. Members of Pi Kappa Alpha were in attendance to show their support for the new, tougher stance and to remember their brother. Sophomore Germaine April, a friend from home who came to IL with Bisanz, talked about some of her favorite memories they had shared together. He taught me life is what you made of it, to take every opportunity and live it," April said. "Now I live every day with this emptiness in my heart.' Former president of Pi Kappa Alpha Jeremy Harrell, a junior, encouraged the campus to remember Bisanz and to watch out for others. "There's not a day that I don't look in this room and think about the person that lived there," Harrell said. "Cherish your friendships, always watch out for you brothers and sisters, and don't think it can't happen to you."

Left: Sophomore Paul Davis (left) and Frank DiSilvestro spend an evening resting from a long college day at The Kingdom, an off-campus house, located in the middle of the Beech Tree Apartments south of campus. The house got the name "The Kingdom" from a group of Christian students who moved in five years ago and have passed it down since. The Kingdom was known for its hospitable reputation and for opening its doors to people. Many friends of the sixmember household visited daily for anything from group dinners, Bible studies, fierce Nintendo games to just relaxing and hanging out in a cozy atmosphere with other friends.

The Kingdom 175

The seven men shared many interests, the main one being their Christian faith. This is what brought sophomores Paul Davis and Darren Ma and juniors Travis Koomler, Adam Clark, Rod Scoville, Brian Dea Kyme and Frank DiSilvestro to 1724 E. Hillside Dr., Apartment R. The two-story, red brick house was a hotel in the 1950s, and was dubbed "The Kingdom" by an unknown source. It had housed groups of Christian men for nearly 20 years. Each year the occupants of the house had the option of renewing their lease, and space became available for other men to share in this unique opportunity. Koomler served as the barber of the house. Clark and Scoville were intrigued by World War II. DiSilvestro was a member of the track team and practiced every day. Davis boasted the most unique musical taste, based on his love of punk and ska, and claimed he had not seen his natural hair color in more than two years. Ma was one of the most immaculate. "Darren's really neat, his clothes are perfectly spaced in his closet, and he vacuums a lot," DiSilvestro said. Dea Kyme spent little time in the house second semester. The accounting/finance major instead spent the semester in Indianapolis, completing an internship. The future plans of the members of The Kingdom were as diverse as the men themselves. Davis and Scoville majored in secondary education, while Koomler planned to be an elementary teacher. Clark, Dea Kyme and DiSilvestro pursued degrees in business, while Ma focused on East Asian studies.

They were a close-knit family within the house, but it didn't stop there. A seemingly endless string of guests came to share in the comforting and accepting environment and to relax and socialize. "People can always rely on it to be a safe house," Davis said. All seven of the men shared a great interest in sports and the house was mostly adorned with the motif. A plethora of sports posters hung on the walls. The most popular sport among all the guys was basketball, as all of them played in high school. Five of them played on an intramural team called Pepetone Six, and the team made it to the intramural final four. A shelf of various trophies showcased the talents of various members of the house. The televisions were often tuned to sports channels and all the guys were devoted fans of the Hoosiers. All of the men agreed the only thing they disliked about living in The Kingdom was the distance from campus. The house was located about a mile and a half south of campus. The only other problem, was "the house gets messy. I like to have it clean," Scoville said. The men of the house got around this problem by making a dishwashing and chore schedule. Their cohesiveness became the key to solving their little problems successfully. It was not an uncommon sight to see a train of sleep-deprived people singing and moving through the kitchen, snaking around the room and on through to the living room. Guitars and songs could be heard at various times during the day and into the night, playing the latest hits from Eagle Eye Cherry and Barenaked Ladies, as well as other popular songs from the radio. Equipped with a stereo. ping-pong table and billiards, the game room served as a popular spot to hang out. It allowed the men to extend their competitiveness beyond the gym.

The men all seemed to agree that the best thing about living in The Kingdom was the group of people. "All the roommates that I have are the best thing. I think they're solid guys," Clark said. "Also, there's always people over here." The men always managed to have a good time, especially at parties, which were always dry. Their beliefs in Christianity made it easy to agree on safe and fun ways to spend time together. They included a lot of people they knew from clubs, teams and organizations such as Campus Life and Campus Crusade. The 1998-99 Kingdom adventure began when the seven men met at Read Center, where they all lived on the same floor and were friends. An e-mail from the 1997-98 Kingdom house members alerted them to the opportunity and they decided to take it. "I chose to live here because first of all, the guys living here are friends. Second reason, it's just a really nice big house for a college student," DiSilvestro said. In its year at The Kingdom, the group furthered its relationship through the experience of living together. Although the members changed from year to year, the memories of Kingdom members were always cherished.15

PROFILE

Delta Gamma house mom's dedication leads to her initiation her 16th year as Delta Gamma's House Director, Suzie Kyle did more than order food and hire staff. She also functioned as a "mom" to many women in the Delta Gamma sorority. To Delta Gamma President Anne Freeman, she was a second mother and a friend. "At first she was kind of intimidating, that is, until I got to know her. Now she is just as important as my friends," Freeman said. Kyle, 57, got involved in the women's lives. Her room in Delta Gamma was always welcoming. A full dish of candy sat on her coffee table and a plethora of movies filled her closet. Signs created by women in the house told her how much they loved her, and collectible gnomes and Disney characters filled the available table and shelf space in the room. Pictures of her children and grandchildren were present next to pictures of Delta Gamma women. Like a true mom, she always kept a stash of medicine and quarters for the women to do laundry. The TV in the room was often taken over by seniors. "Sometimes I have to fight for the remote," Kyle said jokingly. But the women of Delta Gamma did not stop in only to borrow and use things. They sometimes just wanted a chum or some motherly advice. "'Mom' is totally honest. She gives me advice about clothes and serious life issues like summer jobs," junior Melissa Mabley said. Kyle described her job as a combination of a mother and a hotel manager. She worried about the women in the chapter just as she did about her own three children. "I love watching the women change through the years and become more independent," Kyle said.

House Mom 183

On February 20, Suzie Kyle's relationship with the women of Delta Gamma changed — she was initiated into the sorority. Persistence from the women in the house made this possible, as they thought Kyle's membership would he an asset to the house. But there was one major stipulation. To be in Delta Gamma, one must have been presently in college or a college graduate, and Kyle was neither. That did not keep the women of Delta Gamma from trying. They kept in contact with their national headquarters, and alumni also wrote letters to nationals. With strong determination from the chapter, Suzie Kyle's initiation was approved. Kyle cried as she described the time when the women of the sorority asked her to become a member. They led her to their chapter room, where all the members sat in a circle and sang Delta Gamma songs to her. They asked her if she would like to be initiated, and she accepted. During Delta Gamma's initiation week, she received letters, cards, presents and candy. That Wednesday, "Mom Kyle" was in for a big surprise. Her favorite a cappella group, Straight No Chaser, serenaded her by singing "Mama," by the group Boys II Men. The words were altered to describe "Mama Kyle." Kyle was thrilled with the song. "Hazing was having Straight No Chaser sing to me," she said. "I can handle that." Kyle said being initiated was a great honor and very gratifying. And "Mom Kyle" was always on the move. "I'm a definite goer," she said. Freeman said she would always remember "Mom" wearing her red and white pants and riding her Razz scooter with the DG and IU stickers on it, heading to work as an usher at IU football and basketball games. Kyle also served as treasurer for the House Director Association, was a league bowler and a dancer. "We had swing dancing at the house and everyone was shocked to see me on the dance floor. They didn't know I could dance," Kyle said. During the school year, she attended operas, plays, sporting events and Delta Gamma campus activities. "I know I don't have to do it," she said, "but I enjoy it.- in

GREEK ORGANI, AI IONS HOST EVENT'

by Meghan Barich Members of Alpha Gamma Delta teeter-tottered on their front lawn for 24 hours Oct. 10 to benefit the Alpha Gamma Delta Foundation for Juvenile Diabetes. This was just one of the many events held by fraternities and sororities throughout the year to raise money for charities. The greek organization is based on service to community," said senior Elizabeth Brackett, vice president of community relations for the Pan Hellenic Association (PHA). Each month, the houses that were members of the PHA and Interfraternity Council (IFC) held meetings with each house's philanthropy chair. The chairs discussed their houses' efforts toward community service, offered opportunities to other houses and did an activity to support or help the community. Among these activities were Delta Delta Delta's Flapjack Attack and Kappa Kappa Gamma's Jazz and Jaya. "It is hard to get the members involved at first," Brackett said. "It ends up being so rewarding for them. People just keep doing it." Brackett said the goal of a sorority or fraternity is to encourage the members to give back to the community, even after they graduate from college. "Philanthropy is one of the things the greek system takes pride in," said senior Matt Wood, president of IFC. "It is a very strong point." PHA and IFC required each house to have a philanthropy to devote their service efforts to. The organizations ranged from the American Red

Cross to the Ronald McDonald House. "The girls get to see that there is more to a sorority," said senior Carrie Grundleger, philanthropy chair for Alpha Delta Pi. "Through a philanthropy they will learn to give back to the community." Sophomore Martin Meisenheimer, philanthropy chair of the Kappa Sigma fraternity, said philanthropies are important because of the negative reputation most fraternities. have. "Philanthropy is the best thing for (a greek house) because only good things can come out of it," Meisenheimer said. While Kappa Sigma was restructuring, Meisenheimer said philanthropy was the only thing to keep the house together and moving forward. The members had a Twister Tournament with Alpha Delta Pi to raise money for each of their philanthropies. Wood said IFC and PHA were trying to create standards for the houses, including philanthropic requirements. The houses would be required to register a certain amount of points in order to stay in good standing with the council. The houses of IFC and PHA held fundraising events for their individual philanthropies. Pi Beta Phi hosted a Halloween party for the Bloomington Boys and Girls Club at their house. Children trick-or-treated and played games with members of the sorority. Another way the houses helped the community was by donating food, clothing and time to local community service agencies. Fraternities and sororities that were not part of the IFC or PHA also participated in community service. The Multicultural Greek Council (MGC) and the Pan Hellenic Council (PHC) required their members to commit to philanthropic efforts. Since some of the fraternities and sororities of MGC and PHC did not have the manpower or financial resourcesto donate funds, they performed more hands-on service to the community. "It feels so good to give hack to the community, and it doesn't seem like we do that much," said senior Maya Newbill of Sigma Gamma Rho, which is part of the PHC. "A little hit goes a long way." The greek system used its founding principles to help the Bloomington community.

STUDENT MENTORS MAKE A

Back by Traci Krogstie Indiana University has always given students the utmost in quality education, introducing them to valuable experiences that they will remember for a lifetime. Thanks to the dreams and ambitions of two IU graduates, college students were able to take the knowledge, wisdom, and encouragement they had received, acting as mentors to younger children in the community. Founded in 1995, the College Mentoring for Kids! program gave local at-risk children the opportunity to experience a taste of college life and develop lasting friendships with a diverse group of mentors and peers. Twice a week, students from Fairview Elementary. Unionville and DePaul School were bused to the IU campus. where they were welcomed with smiles and encouragement from their mentors. The program paired each child with a college student to partake in a number of fun, educational and cultural activities. Whether it was a trip to the Latino Cultural Center, a visit to a nursing home or a tour of a chemistry lab, these children were given a chance to see new things and experience higher education at a very early age. conlinued Children play along the stairs outside of the School of Journalism library.

DIFFERENCE IN CHILDREN S LIVES

College Mentoring for Kids 193

Since the program's inception, it has targeted underprivileged elementary students, giving them a chance to experience three important aspects of college life — education, cultural awareness and social responsibility. College Mentoring for Kids! (CMFK) was designed by Heidi Schmidt and Kristin Fogg in an attempt to help "save the world." These women wanted to prove that mentoring and positive reinforcement could make a difference in the lives of young children. All the children chosen to participate in the CMFK program came from non-traditional households — including foster homes, shelters and one-parent families. "Since most problems begin early in a child's life, we wanted to try and prevent future problems from happening," Fogg said. "This program would cater to a college student's lifestyle and give children a chance to see beyond their own neighborhoods." And after almost two years of research and development, the women made their vision a reality. Incorporated as a non-profit organization, CMFK, formerly known as Kids Blooming-tons and BloomingKids!, spent its first year as a pilot program at Indiana University and Butler University in Indianapolis. Receiving state funds from organizations such as the Indianapolis Foundation, the Hoover Foundation and America's Promise, Fogg and Schmidt were able to gain support from other communities throughout the state. The CMFK program eventually expanded to Purdue University, Indiana UniversityPurdue University-Indianapolis, the University of Indianapolis and DePauw University. Though the program existed on six different college campuses in Indiana, the mission was the same. "(The purpose is) to expose at-risk elementary students to the University in hopes that they'll be more likely to attend the university once they get older," said Brian Lannan, vice president of communications for CMFK. Since most of these children grew up with an unstable family life, the program strived to find mentors who could motivate the children and serve as positive role models. "We try our best to provide the students with a perfect balance of friendship and authority," said Lannan. Many aspects of the program attracted college students at each campus. Unlike other programs of the same caliber, College Mentoring for Kids! required only

a school-year long commitment from the mentors and did not require them to pick the students up from school. Some mentors saw the program as a chance for children to vent the excitement and energy they had been holding in after a long day of school. Others saw it as a valuable learning experience for the children. Most important was the feeling the mentors received from giving hack to their community and making a lasting impact on the lives of young children. "The program is such a success because it teaches children about diversity around the campus and

introduces higher education to those who might not even know what college is," senior Kelly Gates said. Since diversity was the main theme of the program, the mentors planned activities that would expose the children to many different aspects of college life. With weekly trips to museums, greenhouses, laboratories, dorm rooms and sorority houses, children were able to interact with each other and experience new things they could carry with them as they grew older. In addition, the program made a conscious effort to find a diverse group of mentors, each exposing a different aspect of the University to the children. "We try to develop team building activities," senior Abby Hunt said. "That way we know how each mentor works." A general manager, assigned to each group of 10 pairs, was responsible for keeping everyone together and making sure each activity ran smoothly. The children displayed an endless amount of energy and charisma and they enjoyed the support and encouragement they received from each of the mentors. "My favorite thing about the group is when we go bowling," said Sadie, a seven year-old from Fairview Elementary. "I can't wait to go to college because our mentors go here." continued

Each mentoring session ended with "Journal Time," when the children reflected on what they experienced that day. The journals, donated by Borders, were decorated on the inside and out with a variety of colorful drawings and interesting stories created by the children themselves. While the children wrote in their journals, mentors filled out evaluations forms describing the outcome of the days' activities. They took notes on how well their "buddy" behaved that day and rewarded well-behaved children with stickers. A certain amount of stickers resulted in a prize from the mentor. The extensive use of evaluation sheets with continual positive reinforcement was an important part of what made the program a success. Not only did the program serve as a learning experience for the children, it was also a way for college students to take on an important responsibility and learn new things about themselves. At the beginning of the year mentors were required to attend a training seminar that taught them how to recognize signs of abuse, how to give first aid to the children and how to plan suitable and fun outings. In addition, the mentors had occasional meetings throughout the year to discuss their concerns and anxieties and to receive advice on how to handle the different problems that had arisen in the past. At the end of the year, children, mentors and parents came together to celebrate the children's accomplishments and to recognize the mentors for their contributions. Hosted by the DePaul School, it gave everyone a chance to share their favorite memories, take pictures and say their goodbyes. Nonetheless, both the children and the mentors knew they had made a strong impact on each other's lives that would be remembered for years to come. The ever-increasing number of kids at risk allowed the program to focus on building new, strong chapters in a wide variety of college communities. The College Mentoring for Kids! program gained local, national and even international recognition. "The first years have grown with us," Fogg said. "We've solidified our primary model and made it user-friendly. The college students have proved that they really can make a difference in the children's attitudes towards college." El

The week-long annual carnival, which raised money for Big Brothers/Big Sisters of Bloomington and IU Day Cares, experienced a good turnout despite the cloudy skies. "Last night was a real good night," said T.C. Otstott of Cumberland Valley Shows. "Next weekend should be really busy as well. It's the start of our fair season. We travel from Florida all the way to Michigan. We love Bloomington for the bars, the entertainment." Otstott worked one of the many game booths at the carnival. Attendees played games ranging from shooting, darts and a sandbag toss to pool, basketball free throws and a duck pond. Prizes varied from wall art to plastic toys to huge stuffed animals. The food vendors were friendly and abundant. Cotton candy, hot dogs, caramel apples and funnel cakes were the most common cuisine at the Fun Frolic. A variety of rides crowded the midway with short lines and a manageable crowd. Along with bumper cars, a merry-go-round and ferris wheel, there were many rides for small children, including a mini-roller coaster, tea pots, a train and super slide. "I think it's great," Florida resident Lilly Dalsin said "I love the rides for the little kids. It's clean. The guys who run the rides are helpful and nice." Older children could enjoy 'Mardi Gras," the hall of mirrors, the dreaded "Castle of Evil" or the midway arcade. Numerous fairgoers decided to partake in the festivities with their families. "I'm from Ohio to visit my grandchildren," Glennan King said. "We're having a great time." Adult fairgoers enjoyed wilder rides including the vertical drop "Kazam," the inverted roller coaster "Megaloop" and the spinning "Tilt-a-Whirl."

REAL LIFE EXPERIENCE IN THE CLASSROOM

story by Jamie

Small photos by Andrew Russell After surrounding herself with children in camps and sporting activities, senior Jill Fabiano decided she wanted to be a teacher when she was a sophomore in high school. She came to IU from her hometown of Holland, Michigan because it was big and well-known with a strong school of education. "I've babysat and coached from a young age, and I love the kids," Fabian() said. "I love to watch them start from nothing and then see them grow and develop. "I've always known that I wanted to be a teacher, long before any of my friends knew what they wanted to do, andI chose IU because it was close to home, but not so close that my parents would come to surprise me for dinner," Fabiano said. And instead of going home after eight hours of teaching at Binford Elementary School, Fabian() often practiced Tae Bo in the elementary school's music room. When a co-worker received an instructional video for her birthday, she proposed that a group of third, fourth and fifth grade teachers exercise several times a week. "Tae Bo is a nice break between school and work at home," Fabian() said. "Plus, the group holds you accountable. You can't go home and skip the workout." Binford was only one of the schools Fabian() taught at in Bloomington. While enrolled in a methods class, Fabiano and her cluster gained teaching experience in Martinsville, where they worked three times a week for a total of 70-80 hours. Methods classes taught students how to manage classrooms, plan lessons and set goals. IU education student Jill Fabiano listens to a student's response during a

unit on the Continental Congress. Fabiano spent the last semester of her college career student teaching the fifth grade at Binford elementary.

"The methods classes try to model elementary classrooms with college students, but they're not the same," Fabian() said. "The only way to be realistic is to actually he in class because you can have no idea what you will encounter with the kids." When she received her own class as a student teacher, Fabiano realized how much time she needed to devote. Forty-five minutes before her students arrived in the morning, Fabian() began to prepare for the school day. Mornings were comprised of math, language and spelling, while the afternoons featured a more laidhack schedule, with gym and art classes. "We have a plan for each day, but we have to be flexible.Fabian() said. If the kids are into an activity, we want to keep going to keep up the momentum... But Fabiano's work did not begin in the classroom. One evening every two weeks, she met with her teacher, Wendy Tamborrino, in order to plan lessons and discuss past ones. "Teachers make mistakes, too," Tamborrino said. -Jill and I

spend a lot of time reflecting on what worked well andWhat didn't work well." In addition to giving her pointers and articles on education, Tamborrino gave Fabian() substantial freedom in the classroom. In February, the two started a poetry unit. They introduced the students to different styles while bringing it to a level they could understand. Fabiano sparked the students' senses with peppermint and garlic, and then had them write down what came to their minds. "Many of the kids had a mental block to poetry in the beginning, - Fabian() said. "Once they got interested, however, some of them carried around notebooks and wrote when they were inspired." The poetry unit came to a peak in April when the students chose their favorite poems and created skits to accompany them. Tamborrino and Fabian() spent several days working with the groups in order to perfect them so they could be presented to the rest of the school and parents. cmitinued

Working together, Fabiano and the students developed a wide variety of skits. Some kids took on a rapper persona with blue and yellow sunglasses and dances while others used a sheet to demonstrate the cheery atmosphere of a nice day; still others stood tall while professing their love for kangaroo shoes.

To relate ideas and teach, she shared her personal experiences. Similarly, her students often showed up in her social life. "My relationship with the kids is amazing," Fabiano said.

professor brings inspiration to campus ellonee Burnim discovered a love for music at the keys of a piano. "I started piano lessons when I was four. I was leading church choirs from the time I was 12," Burnim said. "Music was always something that I was profoundly drawn to and encouraged in by my parents. Music seemed to be part and parcel of who I was." Burnim, an associate professor of ethnomusicology in the Department of Afro-American Studies, used that passion to communicate the intellectual and performance aspects of AfroAmerican music to her students. "I find teaching to be rewarding," she said. "I enjoy tremendously to be working with people, especially watching them grow from looking at music as more than an organization of sound but as a manifestation of culture. Finding the meaning behind the sound and learning how to interpret music in ways that can be life-transfomiing." Burnim hailed from a family of teachers. Her father taught for 40 years, and her mother was in the classroom for 25 years. Her brother served as the chancellor at Elizabeth City State University in North Carolina. and her sister worked as an elementary school teacher in Dallas. She achieved her bachelor's degree in Music Education in 1971 from the University of North Texas, then proceeded to teach choral music in the public schools. She ventured hack to school to pursue a master's degree in ethnomusicology at the University of Wisconsin after two years in the classroom, where she recognized the crucial need for students to he exposed to all styles of music. "While I was teaching, it was made glaringly obvious to me that there was a need to teach more than Western European (music)," she said. "Ethnomusicology simply embraces the music of all cultures. It doesn't exclude Western European; its actually more inclusive than the usual training." Burnim arrived at IU as a graduate student in 1975. She was recruited here by then-Dean of Afro-American Affairs, Herman Hudson, to start the Afro-American Choral Ensemble. "I was the first director of the group from 1975 to 1982," Burnim said. "I earned my doctorate from here. IU had a very strong program in Afro-American studies, as well as African studies, so I came here expressly for that reason." continued

Her experiences with the ensemble helped her create an atmosphere in which the audience could both learn about and experience African-American culture. "My vision from the very beginning was that it would be an ensemble performing music by and about blacks, including gospel as well as art songs," Burnim said. "The performances were always set within a context, with poetry and prose. They were designed to provide not only an aesthetic experience but an intellectual experience. We were giving audiences a better understanding of why the music sounded the way it did, how the songs fit together and who the composers were. People were given an opportunity to learn and grow, and it was very effective." Burnim taught several undergraduate classes in the Department of Afro-American Studies, all focusing on Afro-American music. She believed her courses could have an enormous impression on students, regardless of their cultural heritage. "People think that Afro-American Studies courses are actually informative only to African Americans," Burnim said. "But nothing could he further from the truth. It's an academic discipline that can have tremendous impact on intellectual lives." Beyond IU, Burnim conducted choral music workshops at colleges across the U.S. and at the University of Malawi in Central Africa. She also conducted a workshop with the National Chorus of Cuba and led a number of seminars at the North Carolina Center for the Advancement of Teaching. She has left an enormous impact on her colleagues and students, through her teaching and personality. 1997 IU graduate Stephanie Fu, who took Burnim's "Black Music of Two Worlds" class, said the impression Burnim etched into her memory was profound. "The first week of that course was one of the most inspirational and provocative classes I ever had at IU," Fu said. "Forget 'Dead Poets Society,' 'Stand and Deliver' or any other teacher worship film," Fu said. "Dr. B. is the real thing and one of the best teachers at IU, or anywhere. After the course I worked as Mellonee's research assistant for another year. We have kept in touch over the years and she continued to be a mentor and second mother to me." Fu was currently finishing a degree in Comparative Literature at UCLA, looking at interethnic American literature and cultural studies. She said Burnim's dynamic teaching style allowed students to personally connect with her, and Burnim even challenged them to think beyond preconceived stereotypes. "In an Afro-American Studies class you can guess that students coming from different backgrounds can sometimes create tension," she said. "Dr. Burnim taught me how to respond to racial anger or ignorance in a way that reaches, not separates them." Fu recalled that one student entered the course skeptical of the its validity. "I remember one female student who was raised in a conservative small town," she said. "She objected and resisted virtually everything being taught or discussed. She would raise her hand every five seconds and in a condescending tone, ask a question that was sure to offend the entire room. Dr. Burnim held ground, treated her questions in a legitimate fashion but stood her ground. "Midway through the semester I saw her in Dr. B.'s office crying. I went to work in another room for an hour and when I returned, the two were standing outside her door hugging and then she left. I asked Dr. B. what happened to which she replied, 'she finally got it.' The student became conscious of her own racialist tendencies, but didn't know how to move forward. She realized what her town, her parents, her school, her church had quietly tried to inculcate in her. How would she face her family now?

Part of the reason Burnim could effectively cut through harriers with music was her experience of growing up in the black church and segregated schools in Teague, Texas, a small town of 2,728 residents. "I was a product of segregated schools until I was a senior in high school," she said. "Of course going to a segregated school, I had all black teachers. The literature that we sang in choir reflected the typical black high school choir with classical and gospel. I was exposed to that in my high school choir, and I had wonderful experiences to travel to see other college choirs. I remember just being incredibly moved by their sound. "I was grounded in the black church, learned by ear and in the gospel tradition, but I had a bum foundation in classical music from my piano lessons," Burnim said. "I was inspired both by experiences in my church and school. I competed in piano in a scholastic league, and I accompanied my church choir. I was given a lot of opportunities to develop my musicianship. In junior high, I was chosen to provide the accompaniment for the graduates at high school commencement, playing 'Pomp and Circumstance.' "These experiences all translated very favorably in college, where I could play by ear, and I executed sight singing and ear training exercises with very little difficulty. It was a very important part of a skill that was very useful to me as an undergraduate." She continued that tradition as the Minister of Music at Bloomington's Bethel AME Church, where she played piano, conducted, sang and did whatever else was necessary. Her 13-yearold son often lent his expertise on drums to the church. Doctoral student Stephanie Shonekan first met Burnim when she joined the choir at Bethel AME Church, and she followed that experience by taking a graduate seminar, "Theoretical Issues of African-American Music." "She's an excellent teacher of music," Shonekan said. "Some people in that choir — myself included — had very little singing ability, but she worked with anyone and the sound she gets from that group of people is powerful. She had high expectations and works hard, but it's a pretty good experience. "In class, she really inspires one to think very thoroughly and deeply at one's ideas, which is key in any graduate pursuit. Her expectations of you are very high, but that's what every graduate student needs." Shonekan, who is from Nigeria, said Burnim reached out and welcomed the people that surrounded her. "I met her in the first year, and she was very, very welcoming," Shonekan said. "She was just one of the people who kind of welcomed us to the states with open arts. Not just in church and class, but in her home as well. Every encounter with her is an experience; you come away learning something." Dr. Valerie Grim, an associate professor in Afro-American Studies, met Burnim in the fall of 1990 and said her dynamic personality makes a positive impression on her colleagues. "Mellonee is a very profound thinker and teacher. She uses music very creatively to illustrate the black experience," Grim said. "She's probably one of the most caring and dignified professors at the university. She looks at teaching as not only an opportunity to educate, but a way to communicate many things about life. She's a terrific teacher and scholar, and just a terrific person to have as a mentor." Fu said Burnim's know-how helped her wear some pretty rough times. "She helped me understand how to negotiate my own cultural identity and help bridge those gaps in others. As a second mom, she helped me through a difficult time after my father died. I was in LA, but her strength found its way across the phone wires to help me find myself again.- ri

Shelter ANIMAL SHELTER VOLUNTEER PROGRAMS CARE

FOR AND REHABILITATE INJURED ANIMALS A decapitated cow. Live chickens loose in the parking lot. Goats at a fraternity. These were just a few of the things Jeff Krodel has encountered as an animal control officer for the City of Bloomington and the Bloomington Animal Shelter. The IU graduate, who earned a bachelor's degree in public affairs with a concentration in environmental science, never planned to work with animals. "It's an interesting job but it's not something I sat down and though I'd make a career out of, but it kind of ended up that way," Krodel said. Krodel was one of the three officers working for the shelter, and together they answered all calls that came in involving unleashed animals, barking complaints and other pet problems, as well as wildlife injuries. The work he did for the shelter mainly involved picking up stray animals or wildlife. Krodel said that if control

officers picked up a stray animal with tags, they tried to return it to its owner. If no tags were found, the animal was taken to the animal shelter and held for five days before it was put up for adoption. Krodel said he never ran out of things to do and would sometimes receive an unforgettable call. One of those calls came from an elderly woman about 10 years ago. Krodel said the woman called to request that he come over and drive her cat to the vet. She told him that her cat had died a couple of days ago but was moving again so she thought it might only be sick. When he arrived at her house, he found the cat had been dead for several days and maggots had been causing the cat to move. Despite calls like these, Krodel seemed to enjoy his job. "It's a decent job and the days go fast because we are busy," Krodel said. "I get to meet a lot of people and do some interesting things."

Krodel was just one of many workers at the shelter who had their hands full. The shelter had six committees running five different programs. The workers not only cared for animals, they tried to educate the community and found animals safe homes. Finding homes for unwanted animals and injured wildlife was one of the goals of the shelter's Wildlife Rehabilitation Program. The program continued to grow each season because the constant growth of Bloomington encroached into wildlife territory. This led to problems for animals and humans. When wild animals' natural habitats were developed, they tended to stray onto private property or busy roadways. And when animals were injured, they needed specialized care that the shelter could not provide. This was why the wildlife rehabilitators were so vital to the animal shelter. Danielle Michard, the coordinator for the Wildllife Rehabilitation Program, said there was always someone who knew how to handle any animal brought in by the animal control officers. "Last year we dealt with about 1.000 animals and 60 percent of them were birds," Michard said. The program had a red-tail hawk and a great horned owl that were non-releasable. The shelter had permits that allowed the rehabilitators to take the birds to schools and use them as tools in teaching the public about animals. While birds were the most frequent animal the rehabilitators encountered. they were not the only one. The wildlife rehabilitators helped a large range of animals such as rabbits, squirrels, opossums, deer and reptiles. But Teri Bleuel preferred turtles. Bleuel, a state-licensed wildlife rehabilitator for turtles, cared for more than 50 turtles a year. She started rehabilitating turtles after finding a box turtle hit by a car. She took it to the humane society and they didn't have a program to help turtles. So, it became her project. "On average, a turtle with a severe injury will he here for a year," Bleuel said. "Others are with me for about a month. I have never had to turn a turtle away, except some are so severe that they need euthanasia at the shelter." Most turtles she treated had been hit by cars. Others were chewed on by dogs, hit by lawn mowers or were just sick. She usually cared for about 10-IS turtles in her home at a time. Krodel also helped out the Wildlife Rehabilitation Program by transporting wild animals to a volunteer rehabilitator's home. He often used live traps and control sticks to get these animals into cages. "I use a lot of caution around them," Krodel said. "I'm not real fond of dealing with snakes. They give me the willies, but I'll deal

with them." Other volunteer programs at the shelter allowed owners to utilize their own pets. The Teaching Love and Compassion program trained volunteers to speak in public about animal care at local schools and clubs. Some volunteers chose to bring along their own pets to show to school children or girl scouts during their presentations. Another program, called Critter Visitors, allowed volunteers with dogs to take them into the community. Each dog must pass a canine "good citizenship- test before they could be used in the program. The volunteers took their dogs to retirement home or hospitals. More programs were continuously being designed to extend the amount of help the animal shelter could provide to the community.

Shelsy and Mulvaney were among the 39 Indiana University students who volunteered to go on the Campus Crusade for Christ conference, Big Break '99. Over 1,100 students from colleges as far west as Washington State University and as far east as the University of Massachusetts traveled to Panama City Beach to share their faith with the spring break party crowd.

Previous page: Freshman Matt Mulvaney cheers on a female tug-of-war match during spring break at Panama City beach. As part of a beach evangelism outreach group, Mulvaney and other Christian college students used such activities as volleyball, football and tug-of-war to attract other spring breakers to join them. The Campus Crusade Christian group spent the week attempting to get to know vacationing college students in the hopes of ministering to students' needs by sharing their Christian faith with those who were willing to listen.

If people were willing to listen, the students shared different Christian tracts with them about how to begin a relationship with God or how to be filled with the Holy Spirit. Spiritual surveys were also used to find out where people stood in their faith and to have a better understanding of the people for more effective conversations.

--1 pring break participants in Panama City Beach, Fla., heard fellow students discuss the previous night's drinking habits or sexual encounters. But they also heard students asking each other what would happen if they died the next day. This sobering third question was part of a survey conducted by groups of Christian college students who chose to spend their spring break evangelizing on the party beaches. Campus Crusade for Christ organized the Big Break '99 event, in which 1,100 student volunteers gathered for a week of ministry from campuses as far west as Washington State University and as far east as the University of Massachusetts. This was the third year that participants headed to Panama City. In previous years, students had gone to Daytona Beach. Groups of IU students also traveled to such varied locales as Turkey, Germany and Chicago.

As one of 39 IU students representing IU at Big Break '99, freshman Matt Mulvaney enjoyed his first experience with beach evangelism. Mulvaney talked to spring breakers about Jesus Christ through spiritual surveying and shared his own personal testimony of how he became a Christian. Mulvaney did not really know what to expect when he decided to go on the trip, but he thought that it would be a fun experience. He admitted being apprehensive at first about evangelizing in the party atmosphere, but the more he shared his faith, the more he realized his purpose for evangelism. "We were there to show them that Christianity is not religious practices, but that Christianity is simple, (that) the only thing you have to do is have a desire to know God personally and accept Jesus Christ into your heart," he said.

Opposite page: After a packed day freshman Matt Mulvaney spends part of the evening praying with other IU students for the people he shared his faith with earlier in the day. The students also sang praise music, shared testimonies, listened to motivational Christian speakers and had leisure time over the span of the week. Right: IU students who were a part of the Big Break conference spent time talking at the end of a day of ministry. Many of those who attended said that sharing a common purpose during the six-day break helped them build lasting friendships.

By the end of the conference, Mulvaney had shared his faith with a variety of people, ranging from a group of drunken teenagers from Wisconsin to a Jewish student from Connecticut. Mulvaney said the highlight of the week for him was seeing a junior college baseball player dedicate his life to Jesus after talking to Mulvaney. Chris Bittinger, Big Break coordinator, said the impact of the conference ministry was not limited to those who heard the group's message on the beach, but to those who delivered the message as well. "This has given them (the attendees) a break to see the needs of people; therefore from this our students will be compelled to fill this need by sharing Christ on the IU campus more passionately. Many of the 39 IU representatives were in agreement that they built stronger friendships with each other by having a common purpose on the beach." Junior Michelle Wood said the relationships she formed during Big Break '99 had a major impact on her life. "The privilege to share the Gospel along with other believers was the most awesome thing I've ever done because we were there for God, and we knew it was for God." In

Indiana University In 1950, Howdy Wilcox, then executive director of the IU Foundation, formed the Indiana University Student Foundation as a means to inform the student body about what the IU Foundation was. Almost 50 years later, IUSF has grown to become one of the most recognized organizations on campus, sponsoring major campus events — IU Sing, President for a Day, Golf Jamboree, Mini 500 and Little 500. The goals of IUSF were to sponsor events that fostered enthusiasm and leadership while raising money for working students and forging a bond between the student and the University. IUSF was primarily run by a 30-member Steering Committee, which divided into sub-categories to handle all aspects of the organization's campus involvement. April 1999 marked the 49th running of the Little 500, an event known as "The Greatest College Race Weekend."

Services Indiana University Emergency Medical Services was formed in 1994 as a student group providing CPR classes to the Indiana University community. Since then IU-EMS became a support group for Emergency Medical Technicians (EMT) on campus. IUEms provided required training hours for EMTs and also provided a resource for students to receive more information about the emergency medical field. Since 1997, IU-EMS worked in cooperation with the Bloomington Hospital Ambulance Service to provide medical coverage at special events on the IU campus. IU-EMS and BHAS provided the medical support for both the Men's and Women's Little 500 races in 1998 and 1999. Both IU-EMS and BHAS would have liked to provide medical coverage of more campus events, and the members were working diligently toward that goal.

A minimal membership fee allowed participants to receive discounted training at Skydive Greensburg in Greensburg, Ind. The group organized one trip to the drop zone each month and members who provided their own transportation were free to plan their own jumps at any time. In the second full year of existence, the club consisted of 125 members. The Falling Hoosiers promoted the sport of skydiving and showed others how fun and safe skydiving could really be, while at the same time allowed students to form friendships by meeting new people. Usually the organization planned a spring break trip, and for the 1998-1999 school year the group headed south, traveling to various drop zones in Florida throughout the week.

IU SPIRIT REACHES AN ALL-I IME

Up story by

Jeff Fleischer

Before the 1997 Indiana University football home opener, a small group of about 30 students attended a free tailgate party open to anyone on campus. By the time the Ohio State Buckeyes invaded Bloomington on Halloween 1998, over 1,000 IU fans attended the Teardown, IU's official student tailgate. In its two years of existence, the Teardown has provided students with free burgers, pizza and drinks while drumming up support for the IU football program. And it grew dramatically in a short period of time. "It's absolutely amazing that we went from a five-person operation that relied solely on personal funding to a 15-person organization that with the help of the University had over $20,000 to spend and get students to away games," said senior Ryan Coleman, who started the Teardown with his roommates. Coleman had spent years as a drummer in the Marching Hundred, and was disappointed with the fan support for the football team and lack of tailgating. When he left the Hundred to become the men's basketball reporter for the Indiana Daily Student, he chose to do something about it. "So I decided, let's try and do something to fix the tailgating situation here at IU," he said. "I wrote a column in theIDS saying to anybody, 'Show up at this tailgate and we'll cook you a free hamburger.' And from there it just started. Each week we ran more columns and got more people." continued

HIGH WITH THE TEARDOWN

By the Purdue game, the group had established a new tradition. Student radio station WIUS AM- 1570 began playing at the tailgate and Coach Cam Cameron showed up 45 minutes before gametime to lead the students into the stadium. The first year was entirely financed by the students. They sold t-shirts with slogans like "Muck Fichigan" and "Puck Furdue" to recoup a portion of the money. Then members of a business management and organizational skills class had a project on how to get more students into Memorial Stadium. At a meeting with top athletics administrators, these students and the Teardown founders spoke about their ideas for improving fan support. "At this meeting, Coach Cameron asked me to speak about what we were going to do, so we students basically formed a student group that we debuted at this meeting," Coleman said. "Some schools have groups like this, some may have larger groups," Athletic Director Clarence Doninger said. "The main difference is the special enthusiasm that this group has, and it's been fairly unique." Between the end of the 1997 season and before the opening of the 1998 season, the group went to work. The students purchased a bus with University money and painted it. They got IU to set aside an area across from the stadium for the Teardown and to provide free parking for students. "That really to me was a pretty amazing thing from IU's point of view," Coleman said, "because they really trusted a bunch of kids to pull it off right and not to make an embarrassment out of the University, which we didn't do at all." The group also started the "helmet head" student section. Junior Jason Potter said the idea came when some of his friends were in town over the summer and saw the helmet caps at Athletic Outfitters. "We all decided we needed to get them," Potter said. At the Kentucky game, four students wore the hats. Then next week, the term "helmet heads" was coined by a drunken Cincinnati fan. continued

Teardown 283

"By the Purdue game, pretty much everyone who was there was wearing one," Potter said. "The core group of us had grown to about 40, and we're looking for more. We won't he satisfied until it's in the thousands." Throughout the 1998 season, the Teardown gained fame for its effOrts to increase fan support. The BloomingtonHerald-Times ran an article about it and an editorial commending the students' spirit. The group also got tickets to road games for students to purchase. "The cool thing was when we went to Michigan, we were there two hours before gametime in the stadium," Coleman said. "AnESPN guy walked up to us and said 'hey, what's going on helmet heads?' and we were just amazed that ESPN knew us by name already." Between the exciting play of quarterback Antwaan Randle El and the excitement generated by the Teardown, 1998 looked like a banner year for the football program. "Really, our goal from the start was to get people excited about IU football and to fill up Memorial Stadium," Coleman said "We did that one time this year (Ohio State), I think it will happen three or four times next year and it won't be long before every game is sold out. I believe in 20-25 years, (if) my kid attends this University, he'll get to participate in all this stuff that was started. "The beginnings of tradition are supposed to happen back in the late 1800s or early 1900s when football started to grow. It just shows that with a hell of a lot of determination and persistence you can do anything you want and can start anything you want. As far asI'm concerned this is the beginning of Ill football.-rn

he clock began winding down as the men's soccer team rushed down the field to defend its goal. With few seconds remaining, the Hoosiers sent the ball away from the net and started raising their arms up in the air. IU fans counted down. And as the time on the scoreboard expired, the Hoosiers tackled each other in celebration. After 10 years, the Hoosiers once again proved they deserved to be No. 1 in the nation after defeating Stanford University 3-1 in the National Championship match. "It feels splendid," senior midfielder Lazo Alavanja said. "I can't even express it. It's the best feeling ever." Just one year earlier, the Hoosiers fell short of claiming the championship title with a semifinal loss to UCLA after a perfect 23-0 season. But on the same field where the Hoosiers cried tears of disappointment in 1997, they celebrated in 1998. "Most of us remember how it felt last year," Alavanja said. "We didn't feel too good, and we didn't want to go through that again." The season had its definite low points, but IU worked together as a team to defeat the odds and prove itself. The Hoosiers overcame adversity and skepticism, dominated opponents, learned to finish chances and showed that having the passion for a sport was a necessity. The season kicked off Sept. 4 with the annual adidas Classic. Facing the College of Charleston on the first day, the Hoosiers played their first overtime game of the season and won 1-0. In the championship game, freshman Ryan Mack scored his first career goal, giving the Hoosiers a 1-0 lead against the University of California at Berkeley. Junior Dema Kovalenko sealed the 2-0 victory for IU with under six minutes remaining, giving the team its first tournament title. The SMU Classic became a split tournament for the Hoosiers as they blanked Florida International University 6-0 the first day and lost to Southern Methodist University2-0 in the championship game. The loss marked IU's first in the regular season since October 1996. The loss appeared to be a good thing for the Hoosiers as

they returned to Bloomington and began a 13-game winning streak. Before the Big Ten season started, the Hoosiers won three more games, outscoring opponents 10-1. One of the wins — a 4-1 victory over Jacksonville University — found Alavanja putting on a show. After scoring two goals and an assist in the victory, he earned Big Ten Player of the Week honors Sept. 21 for his performance. "I'm extremely pleased with a lot of the things we've been trying to improve," IU coach Jerry Yeagley said. "More people are helping each other out and we're playing with a lot of intensity." The Hoosiers traveled to East Lansing, Mich., Sept. 27 to kick off the Big Ten season against Michigan State. IU had never lost a Big Ten opener since men's soccer became a varsity sport in 1973. The Hoosiers quickly took control as sophomore Matt Fundenberger scored in the 12th minute. Senior Gino DiGuardi added another goal, giving the Hoosiers a 2-0 advantage at the half. Going into the second half of play, Yeagley made some changes in the lineup. He started freshman Tyler Hawley, who scored IU's third goal in the 53rd minute. With a 3-0 lead, the Hoosiers focused on ball control and kept the ball from MSU, giving them their first Big Ten victory. "It was a good start to the Big Ten," Hawley said. "Michigan State is one of our toughest opponents. It's good we shut them out early." IU added another Big Ten victory to its record by defeating Penn State 1-0. Sophomore goalkeeper T.J. Hannig was named Big Ten Player of the Week Oct. 6 after making five saves against the Nittany Lions. IU also became the top defensive team in the nation after allowing only three goals in 10 games to go with a 9-1 record. The Hoosiers traveled to Kuntz Stadium Oct. 8 to face longtime rival Butler University. The Bulldogs also posted a 91 record and were on a nine-game winning streak. Although the intense rivalry usually meant a close game, the Hoosiers jumped in front early and shut out the Bulldogs 3-0.

Another perennial rival, the University of Evansville, played host to the Hoosiers Oct. 11. With a 4-6 record, the Purple Aces were the underdog, but they gave the Hoosiers one of the toughest matches of the year. Evansville held off the Hoosiers until the 82nd minute, when junior Yuri Lavrinenko scored. With only eight minutes remaining, the game appeared over. Then with four seconds on the clock, Evansville's Michael Luc made a pass that ended up at the feet of Steve Nugent, who kicked it past Hannig. Time ran out and a huge controversy ensued as to whether or not the ball was kicked before or after time expired. The official call said the goal counted, so the game went into overtime. The Hoosiers quickly took control in overtime with Alavanja dribbling the ball up the field and passing to junior Aleksey Korol, who scored the winning goal four minutes into overtime. "I was watching the clock the entire play and counting with the fourth (sideline) official," Yeagley said. "I can't explain what happened after that, I was just disappointed with the referee's decision because time had expired." Regardless of the call, 1U added the 2-1 victory to its record and blasted its next four opponents, outscoring them 10-0. The wins included a 5-0 slaughter against the University of Kentucky and a 1-0 overtime win against Ohio State, which gave IU the regular-season Big Ten title. And when the

298 Sports

rankings came out Oct. 27, the Hoosiers were finally ranked No. I on all four national polls. Korol was named Big Ten Player of the Week Oct. 12 after scoring two goals against Butler and the game-winner against Evansville. Next up, IU traveled to Los Angeles to compete in the UCLA Classic. IU easily defeated Loyola Marymount University 3-0 in the first round. But second-round action was what IU anticipated — the Hoosiers were ready to take revenge for UCLA's 1997 upset. "I hope both teams come out to play," Yeagley said. "I know we will, we'll come out to attack." In the battle between the No. 1 team and the No. 3 team, both fought hard. IU remembered the 1-0 loss in triple sudden-death overtime in the semi-final game of the 1997 NCAA Championships, as well as the Indianapolis native, McKinley Tennyson, who scored the goal. UCLA scored first on a goal from Tennyson, but Kovalenko answered just two minutes later, tying the game. "I was just trying to play it back into the box," Kovalenko said. "I got lucky." With a 1-1 score, the second half quickly became a battle for control of the game. In the 49th minute, UCLA scored again and the Hoosiers continued to battle for control. Their chances fell short and IU lost for a second consecutive time to UCLA. The Bruins became the first team to beat IU without

completing a shutout since October 1995. "We were sitting back waiting for things to happen," Hannig said. "And they didn't. But now we're looking forward to NCAAs. Hopefully we'll play UCLA again, and then there will be a different result." With a regular season record of 16-2 (5-0 Big Ten), IU sat out the first round of the Big Ten Championships. In the second round, the Hoosiers faced Wisconsin. IU dominated the game, scoring four goals in the first half. In the second half, neither team scored and IU headed to the championship match against Penn State. Penn State took IU to overtime earlier in the season, and it happened again. But once in overtime, the Hoosiers had no problem winning. Just two minutes in, Alavanja scored the game-winner, giving IU its seventh Big Ten Championship in eight years. The Hoosiers dominated Big Ten opponents all season, outscoring them 14-0. "They worked the ball well and scored it," Penn State Coach Barry Gorman said. "Indiana is a good team. All credit goes to them and good luck in the tournament." The Big Ten named Alavanja Player of the Year and Yeagley Coach of the Year. Alavanja, Garcia, Korol, Kovalenko and Lavrinenko made the All-Big Ten First Team, while Mack and seniors Gino DiGuardi and Andy Parrish were named second team All-Big Ten.

'['hen came the announcement. As the No. 2 Hoosier squad gathered to watch videotapes from the Big Ten Championship games, the players awaited the announcement of the NCAA seed. Yeagley walked in, shut off the television and said, "Here's the deal. We're a No. 8 seed." Mouths dropped and heads shook as Yeagley described who they would face. "It's disappointing that our strength of schedule isn't as strong as it used to be," sophomore Justin Tauber said. "But we're used to tough conditions." The first two rounds, IU played at home and won both matches in overtime. IU beat the University of Akron 3-2 and Butler 2-1. Then it was on to No. 1 Clemson. The Hoosiers came on strong as Korol scored early in the first half. Clemson tied it up before the end of the half, but Korol scored again a little over two minutes into the second half. The Hoosiers held on to their 2-1 lead and advanced to the Final Four. "They're pretty lethal in their attack," Clemson coach Trevor Adair said. "They're aggressive, more aggressive than we were today. They really make you work. They made us work harder than any other team." IU trounced Santa Clara 4-0 in the semifinal match. Korol scored two goals, Kovalenko scored one and sophomore defensive back Nick Garcia scored his first goal of the season. "I know my role isn't to actually go forward and score a goal," Garcia said. "Assistant coach John Trask suggested that I possibly move up and create a little havoc like I did last year. He predicted I'd score, and it came true." Saturday, the winner of the Hermann Trophy, soccer's equivalent of the Heisman Trophy, was announced. Kovalenko placed third and Alavanja fourth behind Clemson's Wojtek Krakowiak. Alavanja and Garcia were also named finalists for the Missouri Athletic Club Player of the Year Award. Alavanja finished second and Garcia fourth

There were only nine positions for two Player of the Year awards and Hoosiers took four of them. Although a Hoosier did not take home Player of the Year honors, the team had the opportunity to play in the national championship. "I'm very happy about being a finalist," Kovalenko said. "But to me the most important thing is that our team is in the finals." Alavanja had similar thoughts. "It was a great honor to be nominated for those awards and be recognized as something," Alavanja said. "Tomorrow is what I'm thinking about. I expect it to be a good defensive battle." IU faced Stanford in championship game, the first time the Hoosiers returned to the final game since 1994. Again, the Hoosiers quickly took control as Kovalenko scored at the 6:54 mark. Lavrinenko scored at the 19:09 mark, giving IU a 2-0 lead. But in soccer, 2-0 is not always enough. Stanford scored off a penalty kick and was back in the game. Korol added a goal before the end of the half, giving IU a 3-1 advantage. No one scored in the second half, and IU took home the victory. Finally, the Hoosiers were ranked No. 1in the nation, and the scoreboard proved it. "I wish I could describe this feeling in words," Yeagley

said. "To come back this year and get the job done really makes this special. Today we're champions." The Division I Men's Soccer Championship AllTournament Team consisted of five Hoosiers — Alavanja, DiGuardi, Kovalenko, Lavrinenko and Parrish. Korol was named the most outstanding offensive player and Garcia the most outstanding defensive player. As for other individual awards, Alavanja, Garcia and Kovalenko were named to ESPN.com/SoccerTimes AllAmerica First Team. Alavanja and Kovalenko were also named First Team All-Americans by the National Soccer Coaches Association of America (NSCAA)/adidas rankings. Garcia made the second team. IU dominated opponents all season. The Hoosiers scored 65 goals and tallied 373 shots, while IU's defense allowed only 11 goals and 164 shots. Hoosier goalkeepers made only 68 saves and recorded 17 shutouts, compared to 131 and one by opponents. IU went into overtime nine times during the season, winning every time. The No. 1 team in the nation proved its worth, as it took home its fourth national championship trophy. continued

At halftime of the IU-Michigan State men's basketball game Jan. 24, Governor Frank O'Bannon honored Yeagley and the Hoosiers. He awarded Yeagley the Sagamore of the Wabash, a personal tribute given by the governor to people who have performed a distinguished service to the state of Indiana. "As governor of the state of Indiana, I'm very happy to present the highest award in Indiana to Coach Yeagley," O'Bannon said. "He's a great leader and a soccer legend." After 26 years of coaching for IU, Yeagley accumulated four NCAA and seven Big Ten Championships and 12 Final Four and 23 NCAA Tournament appearances. The NSCAA named him Division I Coach of the Year for the second consecutive time and fifth overall. The NSCAA also named Kovalenko Division I Player of the Year, the first time the award was presented. After the season, Kovalenko announced he would relinquish his final year of eligibility to join Major League Soccer (MLS); Garcia took spring semester off to train with the U.S. Under-20 National team and Alavanja and Parrish awaited the MLS collegiate draft. In 1998, the Hoosiers came back with a vengeance and took home all they desired.ri

any children dream of growing up and becoming a famous athlete. They spend hours hoping that one day they can play professionally. For children in the United States who dreamed of playing soccer, going international or playing for small leagues were their only options until 1996. That year, Major League Soccer kicked off its inaugural season and won the hearts of many Americans. Boys who played through the collegiate level now had someplace to go. They could live out their dreams and play on the same fields as international and American legends. When MLS started up it was really exciting, and it gave me something more to shoot for," IU soccer alum Caleb Porter said. MLS had a rocky beginning, but in 1998 two more teams were added to the league for a total of 12. Slowly but surely, the MLS began to grow and so did American's interest in soccer. According to a Harris Poll, the percentage of adults watching soccer increased 70 percent in 13 years. There was not only an increase in interest but also in the number of people playing and the skill. "The level of skill in playing level has really grown over the last five to 10 years," IU coach Jerry Yeagley said. "There's better coaching, more people playing and better skill." The MLS offered players a future in soccer, but itdid not mean they had easy decisions to make. Just like any other professional sport. the MLS held a draft and individuals had to

I eaouc in Major League Soccer's fourth season photos from Arbutus archives choose whether to go pro. U.S. Soccer and MLS combined forces and created Project40. According to mIsnet.com, the league said Project-40's goal "is identifying America's top young soccer talent and providing them with valuable training opportunities in the professional arena in order to enhance international success. Project-40 aimed to provide each player with the opportunity to participate in 40-60 quality contests each year on various professional levels, enabling the player to develop at a faster pace than ever before, during the extremely important years when he is 18-22 years of age." Project-40 officials scouted collegiate players and younger, offering them a chance to compete in the MLS. Project-40 guaranteed players a minimum MLS salary, two years of play and a five-year academic package that covered tuition by the United States Soccer Federation. Players also signed a contract from Nike. But Project-40 was not for everyone. At the end of the 1997 collegiate season, Project-40 officials approached senior Lazo Alavanja, junior Dema Kovalenko and sophomore Nick Garcia. All three turned down the offer to continue their careers at IU. "I thought it would be better for me to stay," Alavanja said. "I didn't think I was 100 percent ready to go, but it's different for everyone." Players also had a chance to enter the draft. Many IU alumni entered the draft and have been placed on teams. The first group of Hoosiers drafted — Mike Clarke, Brian Maisonneuve, Brandon Ward and Todd Yeagley — all went to the Columbus Crew. Three of the four remained on the Crew's roster in 1999. Maisonneuve was also one of three former Hoosiers chosen to represent the U.S. in the '98 World Cup. Juergen Sommer and Chad Deering both spent years playing in Europe and returned to the United States to play on the national team. After the World Cup, Sommer joined the Crew's roster and Deering played for the Dallas Burn. But being drafted did not guarantee players a job. "When you get drafted, nothing is assured," Porter said. "You still have to make the roster. I'm thankful for the opportunity and hopefully III make good of my chance." continued

Porter was drafted in January of 1998 by the San Jose Clash but had to sit out the season while recovering from knee surgery. When spring training began in 1999, he headed to camp and started from scratch. "It was very frustrating for me to get drafted and then sit out for an injury," Porter said. "It makes this coming season that much more exciting. I'm kinda going in as a rookie even though I was drafted last year." Chris Klein, also a former Hoosier, entered the collegiate draft in January 1998 and was drafted by the Kansas City Wizards. He found success his first season, starting in the opening game. "I had a pretty good preseason and felt I deserved it," Klein said. "Coming from Indiana, which is a professional program, I knew playing for the MLS would be a challenge, but I was ready for it. Starting in the opening game is definitely one of the highlights of my career." International students had more to deal with than American students. Since they came to the United States with a student visa, when they left school, those visas were taken away. They then received a work permit and could either enter the draft or sign with Project-40. Every MLS team was allowed four international players, 48 total for the league. Many of the international players in the league had a lot more experience than the average college player. Signing Project40 allowed players to waive the international player status for a while longer. While soccer stabilized itself as a U.S. professional league, young boys everywhere had something to strive for. The MLS's mission statement was: "To create a profitable outdoor soccer league with players and teams that are competitive on an international level, and to provide affordable family entertainment." The investors of the MLS were some of the world's most successful business leaders, who had experience with sports teams. The MLS was designed as a single-entity league, meaning owners were supposed to be primarily investors in the league itself. Players were employed by the league, not individual owners. One of the main goals was to keep player salaries in check. The MLS also had many well-known sponsors, such as adidas, Nike and Snickers. And in either 2000 or 2001 MLS officials hoped to expand the league, meaning there would be more opportunities for players. In only its fourth season, it was too early to judge how successful the MLS would become, but at least soccer players had something to strive for. "Something was missing from U.S. soccer for years," Yeagley said. "The missing link has been a viable league. We need the MLS and I hope its here to stay." While Klein was happy with the decision he made, he said each individual player should make the decision that was right for himself. But above all, he stressed the importance of making the most of all opportunities. "Enjoy your time in college because you'll never be in a situation like that again," Klein said. "You become friends with your teammates, but you don't have the same family atmosphere." After claiming the national championship, IU players again faced important decisions regarding Major League Soccer. Alavanja and senior Andy Parrish entered the draft, while Kovalenko signed Project-40. Each player had a different experience during preseason training and with their first season of playing in the major league.

tarting out his college career, senior Lazo Alavanja had accomplished what many soccer players only dream of. In addition to being named Lake Central High School's team MVP for two years, Alavanja showcased his talent throughout the state, playing on numerous club teams. Alavanja played with the Under-17 U.S. National Team and was a member of the Olympic Development State team from 1992-94. Alavanja also collected a MVP award for showing well at IU's soccer camp. The field where he demonstrated his talent would soon become his second home for the next four years. Alavanja only improved on his amateur success, making an immediate impact on the Hoosier squad. His freshman season, he earned Big Ten Freshman of the Year and second team All-Big Ten accollades after being an offensive leader. Alavanja finished the season second on the team in scoring with seven goals, three assists and 33 shots. During his sophomore campaign Alavanja led the team in scoring with eight goals, nine assists and 44 shots, earning him All-Big Ten status. In his junior season, the numbers increased even more. He recorded nine goals, a career-high 11 assists and 64 shots. At the end of the season, Alavanja was a finalist for the Missouri Athletic Club Player of the Year award, a second-team All American, Big Ten Player of the Year and was named to the Soccer America Collegiate MVP team. At the end of his junior campaign, Alavanja received an offer to go to the pros, but he declined, saying he had some unfinished business in Bloomington. Alavanja and his teammates took care of that unfinished business, bringing home the 1998 national title. Along with team improvements, Alavanja wanted to improve his personal play. "I want people to remember my last season," Alavanja said. "I have to do better in my senior year than I did during the other years." Once again, Alavanja made his mark on the offense, tallying 11 goals, 10 assists and 48 shots. He was a finalist for both the Hermann and Missouri Athletic Club Player of the Year and was voted the Big Ten Player of the Year. Alavanja also became the 11th player in IU history to collect 100 career points. "Lazo is a special player," Yeagley said. "Special players have the ability to do special things."

After the season, Alavanja entered the MLS draft. Going into the draft, he was under the impression he would go to Kansas City. The Wizards had been courting him for some time. He was expected to be drafted with the No. 2 pick overall by the Wizards. But on draft day Kansas City traded its No. 2 pick to Miami for the No. 5 overall pick and Columbus' first pick in the 2000 college draft. KC still planned to draft Alavanja with the No. 5 pick, but the Dallas Burn stepped into the picture. Alavanja's teammate Dema Kovalenko was assigned to Dallas. The Burn then traded Kovalenko to Chicago for the No. 4 and No. 12 overall picks. And with the No. 4 pick, Dallas drafted Alavanja. "We saw we had a chance to get him, so we made a move," Burn coach Dave Dir said. "Lazo was one of the best midfielders in the entire draft." In February, Alavanja underwent surgery on both his ankles and spent much of the preseason in physical therapy. With the season underway, he began practicing with the team, but had very little playing time. "It's been interesting," Alavanja said. "Hopefully one day I'll be playing for the Dallas Burn." In May, Alavanja began playing with the Project-40 team. He teamed up with Kovalenko and former collegiate opponents and was happy to be out there playing again. And playing with and against former teammates only added to the excitement. "It's a little different playing on the opposite side of the field, but it's fun," Alavanja said. "Of course, you want to win and have bragging rights." Sophomore Justin Tauber played with or against Alavanja since before the two were in high school, when they were both on club teams in northwest Indiana. "When you play against someone good you remember them," Tauber said. "In high school, he really didn't have to do much. He could go 50 percent and still dominate. In college he had to work harder. I'm happy to see him going on to the pros." As for his first season, Alavanja experienced the frustration of sitting on a bench, but he accepted it and looked forward to playing professionally in the MLS and for the U.S. National Team. "Playing for the national team is definitely a goal of mine," Alavanja said. "But well see. For now, I have to take things one step at a time." in

s a young boy growing up in the Ukraine, junior Dema Kovalenko had a dream — to play soccer professionally. Kovalenko carried something special in his wallet, a piece of paper from his grandmother with her wishes for him on it, among those was playing soccer professionally. At age 21, Kovalenko turned that dream into a reality. After spending three years as a top offensive weapon for the Hoosiers, Kovalenko gave up his final year of eligibility to pursue a professional career. He signed with Project-40 and awaited his assignment. The decision was not an easy one for Kovalenko because he did not have U.S. citizenship. Leaving early meant giving up his student visa. Kovalenko left IU after making a permanent mark in the record hooks. His freshman year, Kovalenko played in only eight games before injuring his right ankle. In those eight games he recorded 10 goals, 25 shots and two assists. Kovalenko sat out the remainder of the season but was named Big Ten Freshman of the Year for his early contributions to the squad. In his sophomore year, Kovalenko came hack from the injury and became the first Hoosier since 1989 to score 20 goals in a single season. He finished his sophomore season with 20 goals, 69 shots and three assists. In his junior year, he continued to move up in the record hooks. In 57 career games, Kovalenko scored 45 goals, tallied 165 shots and collected 15 assists. He moved to seventh on IU's all-time goals scored list and 10th on total career points with 105. Kovalenko was a finalist for the Hermann Trophy two years in a row. He was also named First Team All-Big Ten three consecutive years and was a two-time First Team AllAmerican. In January of 1999, Kovalenko was the first player ever to receive the National Player of the Year award from the National Soccer Coaches Association of America. He headed to the MLS with more than impressive stars — he had a desire to win. After IU's defeat in the NCAA semifinals in 1997, Kovalenko laid on the field in disappointment. And after winning the championship in 1998, Kovalenko jumped on top of the pile of Hoosiers celebrating their victory. Kovalenko left IU with fond memories. "I want to thank everyone at IU who has helped me through my career, especially Coach Yeagley, his staff and my teammates," Kovalenko said. "Without them, I would not have this opportunity."

Juniors Aleksey Korol and Yuri Lavrinenko went through a lot with Kovalenko. They played together for Dynamo Kiev in the Ukraine, on club teams in Rochester, NY and then for IU. The three lived together during the 1998 season, and Lavrinenko said Kovalenko's leaving would require an adjustment. "It will he emptier," Lavrinenko said. "But you have to move on. I'm excited for him. It's something he's always wanted to do, and I am glad he has the opportunity." Prior to the draft, Kovalenko said he would like to be assigned to the Chicago Fire. "Dema indicated he wanted to be with Chicago," IU coach Jerry Yeagley said. "Since the Fire has a number of players from Eastern Europe, he felt he would fit in and his style would be a good fit. I completely agreed with him." On draft day, he found out he had been assigned to the Dallas Burn. However, Dallas traded Kovalenko to Chicago for the No. 4 and No. 12 overall picks in the draft. "I am not picky about where I'm going," Kovalenko said. "I want a coach who wants me to be there. I'm glad that I'm going to the Fire and that III he close to IU." The transition to the Fire was a frustrating one for Kovalenko. He saw very little time playing in games until he made his Project-40 debut. In his first appearance April 30, Kovalenko entered the second half against the New Orleans Storm and netted two goals to become the team's top scorer and helped win the game. "It's fun. I'm playing at least," Kovalenko said. "It's all been frustrating. I came here to play for Chicago, and I'm not really doing that. But if it's meant to be, than it's meant to be." Determination and desire described Kovalenko and his will to play. Soccer was a part of him. "Soccer's like my life," Kovalenko said. "If it doesn't go well, than life doesn't go well." Kovalenko's supporters came from around the world, from his fitfully in Ukraine to his family in Rochester and former teammates in Bloomington. No one was surprised to see Kovalenko make it to the big leagues. "There was never a doubt in my mind that Dema would play professionally," said Ted Hershey, Kovalenko's American host. "I'm a soccer coach myself, and he's probably the most self-directed athlete that I've been in contact with. Dema would have it no other way." El

bile looking for a college to attend, senior Andrew Parrish had a decision to make — soccer or academics. Surprisingly, he chose academics. After being recruited by numerous Division III schools, Parrish decided to come to IU, major in academics and try to walk on to the soccer team. Parrish did just that, but in the fall of 1994, the Hoosier squad was filled with depth and there were not any open slots for him. Coach Jerry Yeagley invited him to try out in the spring. Parrish signed up with the club team and in the fall of 1995 earned a starting position in the Hoosier lineup. "The spring of my freshman year I started training with the team,- Parrish said. "Next fall, they invited me back out to see if I made the cut, and I did. Halfway through my sophomore season, I was starting. It's been a crazy ride." Parrish spent four years as a defensive back for IU. He earned Defensive MVP and Soccer America Team of the Week accolades for helping the defense complete two shutouts at the adidas Classic in the fall of 1998. He also played an important role on one of the nation's top collegiate defenses. At the end of the season, Parrish decided to enter the MLS draft. A week before the draft, the Dallas Burn flew him down to practice with the team. And sure enough, Dallas drafted Parrish in the third round with the No. 30 pick. "I had a guess on where they stood," Parrish said. "But nothing was for sure until Sunday. I thought it would be nice to play in front of friends and family in Columbus, but I was willing and able to go wherever." Coach Dave Dir liked what he saw. "He has a great chance to make the team," Dir said. "He was one of the best defenders in college this year and is dangerous attacking out of the back." Parrish's stay in Dallas was productive, but at the end of April, he was cut from the team. In the A-League draft, the feeding league of the MLS, Parrish was drafted by the Indiana Blast. He packed his bags and headed to Indianapolis. "I was the last and final player cut," Parrish said. "It wasn't a lack of interest, it was a lack of spots. Obviously, it was a little disappointing, but it's a lot like coming home. It's been a

comfortable transition." Parrish signed with the Blast for a year and could be called up to the MLS. Since the Blast is a feeding league for the Chicago Fire and the Columbus Crew, those would be his only two options until his contract expired. Parrish was invited to return to Dallas in spring of 2000 to practice with the team. "I just want to play in the league," Parrish said. "If Dallas is interested and that is my final destination, then great. If I go someplace else, that's fine too." Playing with the Blast gave Parrish a new challenge — readjusting to the team. With only a handful of returning players, the Blast was rebuilding its squad. But for Parrish, a highlight had to be playing against former teammates. The Blast travelled up to Chicago the end of May to play the Fire's reserves and Parrish said guarding former teammate Dema Kovalenko was fun. "I definitely had an advantage," Parrish said. "I think Dema would much rather go against someone who isn't familiar with his play. He remembers practicing against me. But at the same time, he was familiar with my play too." The bond formed between a soccer club cannot be matched. Parrish looked forward to continuing to advance in the professional leagues and face former teammates. "We love it," Parrish said. "We talk about getting together when we're in the same areas. We're excited to see each other, but it is awkward on the field." Parrish earned a spot on IU's team by showcasing his talent, and in the A-League he was given a similar opportunity. But regardless of the outcome, he had support from those closest to him. "Playing professionally is pretty heavy stuff," said Richard Parrish, Andy's father. "It was pretty fantastic when he played for Indiana. But he deserves it. He puts a lot of effort and hard work into it." Before Parrish went to college, playing professional soccer in America was only a dream. But in 1999, it became a reality for Parrish and many former Hoosiers.115

A Step Forward For the first time since 1994 the football team collected more than one win against Big Ten opponents.

hey forced Kentucky Heisman quarterback Tim Couch into his worst passing performance of the year. They slowed down Heisman candidate running hack Ron Dayne and the Rose Bowl-bound Badgers on ESPN. And they battled the Michigan State Spartans, who upset then-No. 1 Ohio State, in a nail-biting double overtime affair in East Lansing. And those were just the losses. The journey started moments after a 56-7 loss ended their 1997 schedule. Things needed to change, and it would all start in the weight room and conditioning during the offseason. Before the Sept. 12 home opener against Western Michigan at Memorial Stadium, Coach Cam Cameron strolled over to the student tailgate, the Teardown." He stood in front of the assembled Hoosier faithful and explained why he showed up earlier than expected. He told the crowd that he needed more time to prepare — he was starting a freshman quarterback. The crowd erupted as Cameron headed back to prepare the troops for the opener. But the level of excitement was nothing like what freshman Antwaan Randle El generated on the field. ABC analyst Bob Griese called him "the most exciting player in the Big Ten." "He was like trying to catch a 180-pound bass,- Western Michigan coach Gary Darnell said. The 5-foot-10, 180-pound quarterback had defenses fishing for a way to stop him all year, but they rarely reeled him in. Randle El threw for 385 yards against Western Michigan on opening day and nearly upset Michigan State with 134 rushing yards. In fact, Randle El kept defenders honest all year with 873 yards rushing, including lost sack yardage. He actually gained 1,074 yards. Randle El was named Big Ten Freshman of the Year at the end of the season. Yet there was something intriguing about the 1998 Hoosiers, and it extended beyond a young quarterback. ESPN could not get enough of the young squad in Bloomington and ABC made IU's Halloween matchup against No. 1 Ohio State, for which more than 52,000 fans packed into Memorial Stadium, the game of the week.

Early in the season, the Hoosier defense looked like a whole new squad. The Hoosiers charged into Kentucky and arrogantly showed the Wildcats that Couch, one of the nation's best quarterbacks, was human. Couch was forced into four interceptions — two snagged by senior linebacker Jabar Robinson. But, as was the trend, the game slipped away 31-27. "We still had the chance to come back and put the game away in the fourth quarter, butwe fell short," Robinson said. "It's frustrating. Only we know how

hard we worked in preparation for this game.Hoosier fans knew how hard their team was working. They had Couch so flustered that people nearly forgot that it was IU with the rookie quarterback. And they continued to prove they could frustrate the nation's best. The Badgers ended up with the Big Ten title, but they were nearly upset by the Hoosiers in an early October matchup.

yard touchdown that gave the Hoosiers a 13-3 lead. But while the Hoosier defense stuffed the bruising Dayne for three quarters, Wisconsin and Dayne overpowered them in the final minutes to grab a 24-20 win. The following week in East Lansing, the Hoosiers gave one of the most gutsy performances IU football has ever seen. Even after a devastating loss to the Badgers, IU wiped out a 16-0 Spartan lead to grab a 2416 fourth-quarter advantage. The defense sacked Michigan State quarterback Bill Burke six times.

But the Hoosiers lost the game in a double overtime that included some questionable officiating that hurt the Hoosiers and a great performance by junior quarterback Jay Rodgers, who stepped in for an injured Randle El. With injuries up and down the roster crippling the Hoosiers, the team limped into devastating late-season losses to Illinois and Purdue that knocked them out of howl contention. But nobody could tell this Hoosier squad that improvement was good enough.

"We have to win," said junior defensive end Adewale Ogunleye after the Michigan State loss. "We're not here to go into overtime or get tour-point losses, or moral victories. I think Indiana's had enough of those in the past. Its time for us to step up." With only five seniors graduating, the Hoosiers tour wins did not accurately measure the team's improvement over one summer or how bright its future could he. But for Cameron and the Hoosiers, the successes of 1998 were one giant step toward their ultimate goal of a Big Ten title. "We've made the most progress this year through iatitude and that means a lot of things," Cameron said. They've had the attitude it takes on a day-to-day basis in order to improve. (The players) really brought it in to everything we've asked them to do." in

Reaching Goals Women's soccer wins its first ever NCAA Tournament game with a 3-1 victory over Wright State University.

very young team works hard to establish a name for itself. For some it's easier than others. But for the IU women's soccer team, the 1998 season quickly became a year of firsts and by the season's midpoint, 1U made a name for itself. The season brought the team its first NCAA tournament victory, first perfect record at home and first appearance in the national top 20. IU completed the year at 14-8-1, which accounted for the most wins in the program's history. IU claimed six out of nine Big Ten wins, again the team's best record ever. And after a year of hard work. IU was no longer known as a men's soccer school only. "I'm so proud of what this team did this season," said Coach Joe Kelley, who coached every year in the team's history. "I can't say enough, and I told them how proud I am of them." The squad's most enjoyable season ironically ended in, of all places, Happy Valley, with a 2-1 NCAA second-round loss at Penn State. The Hoosiers were outshot 17-7 but were able to keep in perspective all they had accomplished throughout the season. "Hopefully what we have done during the year will help Coach Kelley recruit for years to come," senior back Emily Bridenstine said. But the theme for IU during the '98 campaign may have been perseverance. Injuries seemed to pop up every few minutes, but none were able to derail the Hoosiers' ride. Junior Tracy Grose led the team with 15 goals and 37 points despite cracking a rib with eight games left. She stayed in the lineup and her scoring totals were the best in team history. The team did lose junior back Emily Etzkorn and senior forward Tory Dolan to injury, as well as star freshman Kelly Kram for a number of matches. "I'd challenge anyone to find a team in the country that played as well as we did, finish as good in their conference and stay in the top 25, with the injuries we garnered," Kelley said.

IU started the season by racing to a 4-0 start, outscoring opponents by a combined score of 15-1. In the Hoosiers' second victory, a 9-0 win over Indiana University-Purdue University at Indianapolis, senior forward Kris Fosdick entered her name into IU's record book by scoring eight points on three goals and two assists. The points were a single-game record at IU, and the goals tied the best mark in school history. Fosdick finished the season with 23 points and nine goals, and would claim third-team All-Great Lakes Region honors at the end of the season. "She's definitely one of the very best we've had in this program," Kelley said. "Kris probably should have made the Big Ten's team. But this kind of recognition is great, and she earned it." Grose received first-team All-Great Lakes Region honors after leading the team on offense with 15 goals and 45 shots. "This says a lot about the progress of our program," Kelley said. "It's very well deserved for both players."

After the Hoosiers beat Ohio State 2-1 Sept. 20, they were rewarded with their first regular-season ranking ever, receiving No. 25. The team would reach as high as No. 17 later in the season. The Hoosiers slogged through the rest of the year, winning five of their last six games, still unsure whether they would claim an NCAA Tournament berth. But after a 5-4 penalty kick advantage over Minnesota in the first round of Big Ten Championships, the team was almost a shoe-in for its second big dance invitation. IU lost to Ohio State the next day 3-2, but found out one day later the team would face Wright State University in the tournament's first round. They won that game 3-1, but fell to Penn State just days later. The loss to Penn State wrapped up the Hoosiers' season of firsts, but Fosdick said they had every reason to be pleased. "I think we're getting the respect we deserve now, which is something we didn't get before." in

Rebuildin2 Tearns With new coaches, both the women's and men's cross country teams underwent a season of rebuilding. fter 29 years of coaching, the legendary Sam Bell retired, giving way to a new era in Indiana University cross country and track and field. After a year of rebuilding in the cross country program, the season ended with a disappointing ninth-place finish for the women and a 10th-place finish for the men at the Big Ten Championships. But both teams built a new foundation. For many of the athletes, just making it through the season free of injuries meant success. Sophomore Aaron Gillen said he finished the season without an injury for the first time in two years. "We didn't set any goals running-wise," said Gillen, who endured a stress fracture, strained hamstring and numerous shin splints during previous seasons. "But it was our goal to keep healthy, stay focused and build a foundation with the rest of the team." Gillen attributed his health to a new system under the guidance of the new men's coach. Rol)ert Chapman. Chapman, who had a Ph.D. in kinesiology, brought new scientific training ideas to IU after spending time in Dallas studying the effects of altitude training on Olympians' performance. Chapman examined his athletes' running performance on treadmills with a V20 Max test, which monitored how much lactic acid went into the body's bloodstream. Based on the results, Chapman told Ili's runners how to maximize their strengths and minimize the weaknesses. "This is the healthiest our team has ever been," said Gillen. who was the number-one runner for most of the season. -I think people might question our training since we didn't win a lot, but they just need to give us a chance because it takes a while to get a base and I think in the next couple of years the program is going to take off." As for the coaching style, Chapman and Bell were like night and day. "Coach Bell and Coach Chapman are about as opposite as you can get." junior runner Tom Breckenridge said. "Bell is very emotional and fiery and wants everyone to go hard all the time. Coach Chapman is more about coaching the individual; every day in practice we have a specific purpose.continued

The running season for the women almost paralleled the men with a rebuilt team and a new coaching change. A former IU walk-on and captain, Judy Bogenschutz relied on her running experience and limited time as an assistant coach at the University of Connecticut to help the Hoosiers. "Whenever you have a coaching change, you have to be able to relate to the changes and different expectations," Bogenschutz said. "I'm their worst nightmare because I've been there. I know what it's like to be a runner and be a student." But the team registered some successes. At the Indiana Intercollegiates, the men placed fourth and the women sixth out of 27 teams. At the newly renamed

Sam Bell Invitational, senior Traci Knudsen led the Hoosiers to a third-place finish while Gillen led the men to fourth place. "The team didn't always meet my expectations, but you always have to do better," Bogenschutz said. "Coming into the season, there were substantial injuries and a group of people you know nothing about. It was more about getting through the season and getting ready for indoor." Senior walk-on Jenny Sprowls agreed. "I definitely don't think we accomplished what we could have as a team," Sprowls said. "But we have improved, even if our times don't show it. Our attitude is better and we have made progress."

Making History Volleyball heads to the second round of the NCAA Tournament for the first time in ILYs history.

obody thought they would make it to the NCAA Tournament. Even the Indiana University women's volleyball team had doubts. But the Hoosiers made it to the tournament and made history. netting their first-ever NCAA win. IU lost in the second round, but before being eliminated, the Hoosiers proved they could compete with the NCAA's best. After fighting a battle to remain at the top of the Big Ten Conference, ILI's volleyball team tied for fifth place with Ohio State. As the regular season came to a close, the Hoosiers awaited the decision of the NCAA tournament committee. The team had made only one previous appearance in the tournament in 1995. "We knew we were on the bubble for the NCAAs," junior Ryann Connors said. "We knew we should have won more games. We just crossed our fingers hoping we'd get into the tournament." IU (16-13, 9-11 Big Ten) made it to the tournament and went on the road to face the University of Northern Iowa (25-2, 18-0 Missouri Valley). The Hoosiers snapped the Panthers' 23-match winning streak by sweeping them, 3-0. Indiana dominated the match with 10 aces. Connors led with 15 kills while sophomore Amanda Welter added another 13. "We were scared that it would be our last match and we knew we had nothing to lose." senior Melissa Rooney said. Then the fear really began to set in. For the first time in IU's history, the Hoosiers advanced to the second round. The team turned to first-year assistant coach Elaina Oden for some sound advice. Known for her softspoken nature, Oden spoke for the first time of her experiences as a two-time Olympian. "When I went to the semifinals against Cuba in 1992, I was thinking that we aren't supposed to win because they are the favorite," Oden said. "If we don't win we'll have another chance to play when it comes hack to the U.S. I never got another chance to play

because I got hurt. "Arkansas was a great team and we had one shot to go after them," Oden said "I told them if you've gotten this far and if you're this good. then don't make it 'this is good enough,' you have to play with all you have since you won't get another chance." That was enough to change any thoughts of uncertainty. "Elaina brought us up to a different level of intensity that we hadn't known before," senior hen Magelssen said. "She's really shy and doesn't like to talk about her accomplishments, but it really lit us up to play well." So the Hoosiers advanced to the second round, and while they put up a fight in the first match, it was not enough. IU fell hard as the University of Arkansas (275) shut down the team's offense. "1 felt we were in game one," IU head coach Katie Weismiller said "We sided out with them, but we struggled scoring points." It was a fitting end for seniors Magelssen and Rooney, who played during Indiana's only prior appearance in the NCAA Tournament in 1995. "It is a step in the right direction to win matches in the NCAA Tournament," Magelssen said. "It will help to build for the future for Indiana to be a volleyball powerhouse." Magelssen left her mark in the record books by setting career records for her 1,331 digs, 1,387 kills and 197 service aces. A strong start to the season answered many remaining questions from the previous season. The 1997 season ended with the Hoosiers winning three of their last 15 games. In 1998, after the first 13 games, IU posted an 11-2 record, including a weekend sweep of Michigan and Michigan State at home. "We didn't let it have a spiral effect because they didn't let it weigh in on them," Weismiller said. "For the first time we swept back-to-back. That was huge because that's when we began to realize that we could play with the best, because we were one of the best."

Then it happened. Big Ten competition became tougher and the Hoosiers headed downhill. IU won only five more games during the remainder of the regular season. The Hoosiers began to struggle after losing to Iowa and Wisconsin. "We came in thinking about our next game, Iowa was already done with," Rooney said. "We realized that you can't take any game for granted." IU came home for its season finale and defeated both Northwestern and Minnesota. The Hoosiers posted a 12-2 home record. "Once we realized how good we are together, it helped us to have the confidence that carried over," Connors said. The bliss of going further than ever before gave the Hoosiers a sense of accomplishment for a season that made history. "When we first made it to the tournament four years ago, we were just happy to be there," Weismiller said. "This year, we were also happy to he there, but we felt like we deserved it. We knew we had a mission to prove that we belonged in the tournament.rai Left: Seniors Melissa Rooney (left) and Jennifer Magelssen attempt to block a Northwestern spike Nov. 18 at the University Gym.

Men's swimming and diving closes

out another successful season, finishing 21st in the nation. he IU men's swimming and diving team entered the 1998-99 season with several unanswered questions. Head coach Kris Kirchner was dealing with a supposed lack of depth on his team, while diving coach Jeff Huber looked. for his AllAmerican divers to pick up where they left off. In 1998, the squad placed fifth at Big Ten Championships and 21st at NCAA Championships. Sophomore Jason Carlberg, a butterfly specialist, said the team lost several key swimmers to graduation. but that didn't stop it from aiming high. "I didn't necessarily think we were as talented as my freshman 'ear, but we thought we could work hard enough to get third at Big Tens," Carlberg said. "Personally, my goals were to get best times in each of my events, and I wanted to at least score points at Big Tens in the 100 and 200 butterfly." The Hoosiers opened their dual meet schedule Oct. 31, with a victory over the University of Kentucky Wildcats. Seven Hoosiers won 10 events. Junior Ken Ackermann, senior Mike Collier and senior Tom Davis each had a pair of firsts. Ackermann scored in the 100 and 200 backstroke, while Davis swept the 100 and 200 breaststroke events. Collier placed first on the one- and three-meter springboard events. At the Illinois Dual Meet Extravaganza, IU collected its first two losses of the season against the University of Missouri and Drury College of Missouri. The Hoosiers bounced back, winning their next three meets. Ackermann and Davis were back in action Nov. 12, swimming against Team USA at the Swim Meet of Champions held at Northwestern. The two-day dual meet between the Big Ten team and Team USA saw both swimmers achieve top ten finishes in two events. IU finished fifth in the last meet before winter break, the Indiana Invitational. Collier grabbed first on the platform, and senior Chris Gage won the 500 freestyle. IU defeated the University of Miami, improving its record to 5-2. The Hoosiers took a break until January 15, when the team lost its Big Ten opener against Penn State. IU swimmers jumped out with wins from the 400-medley relay team, and junior Ben Hunter's victory in the 1,000 freestyle. But the Nittany Lions took at least first or second in the next six events to build the lead. Collier swept the one- and threemeter events, while Davis captured the 200 breaststroke. IU, then, scored a solid victory over Cincinnati before facing its biggest Big Ten test — Michigan. With a major upset over No. 9 Michigan, 137-106, IU defeated the Wolverines in the first dual meet since Jan. 27, 1984. IU began the meet with a season-best time by the 400medley relay team. The meet went hack and forth until wins

by Carlberg in the 200 butterfly and a sweep of the top three spots in the 100 freestyle. IU never faltered, winning three of the last four events. Ackermann won the 200 backstroke and Davis sealed the victory with a win in the 200 backstroke. Collier took the threemeter springboard and IU finished the meet with the top two spots in the 400 freestyle relay. "Probably our biggest moment of the season was beating Michigan.- Carlberg said. "Three or four weeks beforehand we realized we had the potential to beat them and went for it. (Coach) Kirchner stressed how good we really were, and after a point we started to believe it and that really helped our swimming.IU completed its sweep of the state of Michigan the next day with a 160.5-82.5 victory against Michigan State. The Hoosiers continued their success in the conference the following weekend, when they knocked off arch-rival Purdue, 129-114. The tension mounted as the meet came down to the final event. the 400 freestyle relay. IU was victorious and both relay teams set records, as did Ackermann in the 20(1 backstroke. IU won six events, and sophomore Jason Graves won both diving events. Kirchner was pleased with his team's performance. "It came down to the last event, and we did what we had to do," Kirchner said. "It's was a typical Purdue-Indiana meet. It was a dogfight. It was a great meet, and we set three records in their pool." IU finished the dual meet season with a 9-3 overall mark and a 3-1 Big Ten record. The team tallied its most wins since 1995, when the Hoosiers went 9-5 and finished fourth at Big Tens. Carlberg said that many people discounted the Hoosiers because of their lack of size. "We weren't as big as a lot of teams, and they didn't expect us to do as well, so I think we surprised a lot of people," Carlberg said. "This year we kind of came together as a team better than last year." IU entered the postseason as the host of the Big Ten Championships in the Counsilman/Billingsley Aquatic Center. The team finished fifth overall, but several IU swimmers and divers achieved personal bests. IU's 400-medley relay team finished third and the 200 medley relay captured fourth. Davis took fifth in the 100 and 200 breaststroke, while Ackermann finished fourth and sixth in the 100 and 200 backstroke, respectively. Collier won the one-meter springboard and placed second on the three-meter and platform. "Our relays really came together this year at Big Tens,"

Davis said. "We had a weak showing at the 1998 Big Tens. but we improved a lot in that aspect." At the conclusion of the championships, Collier was named Big Ten Diver of the Year and Huber garnered Coach of the Year honors for the third year in a row. Collier and junior diver Ryan Kosanic were the only Hoosiers sent to the NCAAs. On the first day of competition, Kosanic placed 31st on the one-meter springboard and 25th on the three-meter. Collier earned All-American status for the fourth consecutive year after placing fourth on the one-meter, eighth on the three-meter and seventh on the 10-meter. IU finished 21st overall with only two athletes competing. "Team-wise, we gave 100 percent, but things didn't really fall into place," Carlberg said. "Just for what we had, I don't think I could have asked for more." The men's swimming and diving team experienced numerous ups and downs throughout the season, but still found a way to place in the nation's top 25.

Fresh St art Women's swimming starts a new era with a new head coach, a new w■

assistant coach and 11 freshmen

ith the start of every season, athletes are forced to make adjustments. Beginning the 1998-99 season involved many adjustments for the women's swimming and diving team. With new coaches and 11 freshmen, the future of the season was up in the air. But after posting a 6-5 record, an eighth-place Big Ten finish and a 22nd place NCAA finish, the team's highest since 1992, the Hoosiers proved adjusting successfully was definitely an option. Before the start of the season, the Hoosiers had time to get to know each other and the new coaching staff. Dorsey Tierney stepped in to the head coach position, while Greg Earhart took the assistant coaching position. Tierney served as assistant coach for IU in 1994-95 and spent the next three seasons as an assistant coach at Southern Methodist University. Earhart spent two years as an assistant coach at fellow Big Ten school Minnesota. Senior Jennifer Brooks said Tierney inspired her. "I think some people are born leaders and she (Tierney) is," Brooks said. "She tells you you're going to swim fast and you believe her. You want to do it." The season began Oct. 31 with a coed meet at the University of Kentucky. The Hoosiers dropped their first meet of the season 129.5 to 168.5. IU then traveled to Champaign, Ill., for the Illinois Extravaganza. IU lost to the University of Missouri in the first meet of the Extravaganza, but bounced back fast. The team won its next three meets, defeating Illinois State University, Southern Illinois University and the University of Cincinnati. In the final dual meet of the Extravaganza, IU defeated Cincinnati 78-35 but lost to Illinois 74-39. Sophomore Jen Cristy led the swimming attack for most of the season, capturing numerous freestyle wins, while freshman Sara Reiling led the team in diving. Entering the season, diving coach Jeff Huber had no doubt Reiling would show well. "Sara comes in very experienced," Huber said. "If she can stay healthy, she will gain a strong foundation. Even though people know she is good, I think she is actually going to surprise some people." After collecting two wins and placing second and fifth in invites, the Hoosiers kicked off a string of Big Ten meets. First up, IU headed to West Lafayette to face Purdue. In a showcase of in-state rivalry, the lead fluctuated for the majority of the meet. IU took the lead early after Brooks, Cristy, senior Becky Kamberg and junior Sarah Jacobs won the 200-yard medley relay. Brooks was pleased with the relay performance and said she generally enjoyed competing in relay events. "That's where a lot of fun in college swimming is," Brooks said. "Swimming in relays is one of the things I will miss the most." Purdue put a stop to IU's lead, forcing the Hoosiers to wait until the seventh event to win again. Brooks took charge by winning the 100 and 200-yard fly. In the 200, Brooks notched a season-best time of 2:03.77. In two events, Cristy edged out Purdue's Erika Whyte, while freshman Helena Wilhelm took home the last Hoosier swimming event, winning the 400-yard

individual medley relay. The Hoosier divers remained strong, as Reiling took the three-meter title followed by sophomore Erin Quinn in second place. In the one-meter event, Quinn placed second and Reiling third. In the Hoosiers' last meet of the regular season, they hosted Michigan State and Iowa. As was the case in many of IU's dual meets, the team won a meet and lost a meet, ending the season with a 6-5 record. IU defeated Michigan State 165-78, marking its first Big Ten victory of the season. The Hoosiers came up short against Iowa with a 115-128 loss, battling until the final event. "I was mostly pleased with our racing," Tierney said. "We were really tough today, the seniors especially." IL7 took a little over two weeks off to prepare for the Big Ten Championships, held Feb. 18-20 in Minneapolis. "I feel good about our chances at Big Tens," Tierney said. "It is going to be a real dogfight for fifth place through eighth. But I think all of our background work will pay off." Big Tens proved to be exciting as Minnesota dethroned Michigan after 11 consecutive wins. The Hoosiers showed strongest on the final day of competition with seven swimmers competing in the finals. Overall, the Hoosiers finished eighth. Freshman Erin Rice and sophomore Amanda Noblet showed well in the 1650-free. Rice topped her career best by 37 seconds, finishing with a 17:06.98 time (11th place). Nobler finished three seconds later, shaving 25 seconds off her season best. Cristy finished with a career-best :50.03 in the 100-yard freestyle, finishing ninth and winning the consolation heat. Brooks placed 11th in the 200-yard fly while sophomore Jennifer Watts placed 15th in her first-ever Big Ten final. In platform diving, a nonscoring event, all three Hoosier divers placed in the top five. Reiling finished first, Quinn second and senior Debbie Lipski fifth. IU ended the competition with the 400-yard free relay. The team of Brooks, Cristy, Rice and senior Christine Jamerino placed sixth with a season-best time of 3:25.10. The Hoosiers then traveled to Athens, Ga., for the NCAA Swimming and Diving Championships. Four Hoosiers competed at NCAAs, led by Cristy who finished eighth in the 50-yard free, earning her All-American honors. Quinn also received All-American honors with a sixth-place finish in the one-meter, the highest finish for IU since 1996. Quinn placed ninth in the three-meter. Reiling placed 10th in the 10-meter, earning honorable-mention All-American honors. Brooks, a four-time NCAA qualifier and three-time AllAmerican, competed last for IU and finished 31st in the 200-yard fly and 33rd in the 100-yard fly. IU placed 22nd overall. In a season that began with many uncertainties, the Hoosiers fought their way to their best NCAA finish since 1992 led by a handful of veteran swimmers and a large freshman class.in

b The men's and women's indoor track teams prove they can successfuly compete in the Big Ten. n the sport of track and field, there are so many different . events that it becomes easy to focus on individual accomplishments. But not at Indiana, where two first-year track and field coaches made clear from day one that the team goal of capturing the Big Ten Championship would take precedence over any individual goals and accolades. "I want us to he a team, not a group of individuals," men's coach Marshall Goss said. "I feel if you are a team, you will also he great individuals. It takes everybody to win a meet; the seconds, thirds, and fourths are very important when it comes to a team score." From the very first meet, it was clear that in 1999, IU's indoor track and field team would he a factor in the Big Ten as the men's team emerged victorious at Michigan over the host Wolverines, the University of Kansas and Michigan State. The women also fared well, finishing second only to the defending Big Ten champion Michigan. But women's coach Randy Heisler knew that if his team was to compete in the conference, it would need more athletes to step up and perform. "We've got talent, we've got quality," Heisler said. "It's just right now, our quantity needs to step up a little hit more. I'm not sure if we can win the Big Ten right now, but we can knock on the door and people are going to open it up and say, 'Indiana's coming back'." At their first home meet, the Hoosiers proved they would he a force to be reckoned with. Before the meet against Ohio State and national powerhouse the University of Tennessee, Goss told his athletes they had a chance to pull an upset. "At the team meeting, I told the team we can win the meet," Goss said. "I think the team is almost to (believing) that we can do things. That's so important to everything you're doing, and particularly track and field." Goss' words nearly proved prophetic as the men's team almost pulled the upset, finishing a close second to the Volunteers on a day when points in a single event were enough to sway the scoring. "We almost beat a powerhouse team today," freshman sprinter Joshua Ellis said. "Tennessee's a powerhouse track team, and we almost beat them. They were supposed to run away with it on paper." Meanwhile, the women's team claimed its first victory by defeating Ohio State, the only team it faced, 85-73. With the win against a conference foe, Heisler's team focused on the season goal. "Everything we're doing as a team is built toward the Big Ten meet,- I ieisler said. "I want our team to go to the Big Ten

meet and have the best showing possible. A showing where they come out hungry." The week before the Big Ten Championships, IU came out ravenous in a home meet against the Purdue Boilermakers. The men's team led for most of the meet, with a late surge bringing them the win, and a chance to sing the fight song in front of the fans. The victory was assured before the final event, the men's 4)(400-meter relay, but the Hoosiers ran the race with enthusiasm, Goss cheered on the men as they brought home the victory, capping a decisive 88-72 win. -No matter how the meet goes, if you win the mile relay. that's like talking bad about somebody's mom," relay team member senior Russell Collins said "I mean, that's personal Especially with quarter-milers, that is the race that every quarter miler wants to run, and it's one of the races everybody's going to remember." On the women's side, the Hoosiers also held the lead tot much of the meet, but the women faltered late to finish second to the Boilermakers. Heisler looked forward to the Big Ten Women's Championships in Columbus, Ohio. "We can win every meet all year long, (but) if we go to Big Ten and finish eighth or ninth, so what? It just doesn't matter," Heisler said. "If we lose every meet during the year. but we go win the Big Ten, what are people going to remember? The Big Ten Championships." The women heeded Heisler's words as they finished third with 93.5 points at the meet without the benefit of a single individual champion. For the team, the winwas a welcome remedy for the heartbreaker against Purdue. In Madison, Wis., the men's track and field Big Ten Championships saw the Hoosiers finish fourth with 76 points and two individual Big Ten Champions. Ellis won the 200-meter dash, junior Kurt Krick won the shot put and the distance medley relay team also brought home a first-place finish. After the Big Ten Championships, the focus turned for the first time to the individual honors as five Hoosiers had a chance to attain at the NCAA Indoor National Championships. Sophomore Jennifer Brown and freshman Krista Keir represented the women, while Ellis, Krick and freshman Greg Yeldell represented the men. But the athletes did not perform at their usual top levels, and went home disappointed. Goss said the team will take the disappointments and use them as motivation in the outdoor season. "I hope it's a challenge to (the athletes), as much a challenge to them as it is for (the coaches)," Goss said. "Weve just got to take that as a challenge and go from there, and we will.- in

fter a ninth-place finish at the Big Ten Championships, four Hoosier wrestlers headed to Penn State to compete in the NCAA A Championships. Despite the black cloud that hung over the Hoosiers during the season, juniors Pat Cassidy and James Ton-es, sophomore Kevin Stanley and freshman Viktor Sveda represented IU at the national level. The only Hoosier to place, No. 12 seed Sveda (184), lost in the second round, then won the wrestleback and three more matches before losing to the No. 4 seed, receiving fifth place. Sveda went 8-0 in the Big Ten and finished with a 33-2 record, He collected All-American honors for his success. The other three Hoosiers had early exits at the championships. No. 9 seed Cassidy (125) won two matches before losing 2-15 to Fresno State's No. 1 seed Stephen Abas. Cassidy lost his first wrestleback. Torres (141) lost his first match to the No. 6 seed, but won the wrestleback by defeating Wisconsin's Matt Goldstein 5-2. Torres lost his next wrestleback. Stanley (157), a No. 12 seed, lost in the second round and lost his first wrestleback match. Although, IU's success at the national championships was shortlived, the Hoosiers started the season off strong, entering the Big Ten season undefeated (5-0-1). In the conference opener, IU welcomed Northwestern to Bloomington. The Hoosiers kept their guard up, pulling off a 21-20 victory over the Wildcats. Their Big Ten success, however, did not last. IU lost to Purdue two days later, beginning a five-meet losing streak. Injuries weakened the Hoosiers' lineup. Stanley wrestled almost the entire season with a torn anterior cruciate ligament, yet he still made it to nationals. Cassidy also suffered a setback at the beginning of the season. Due to a serious illness, he did not even wrestle his first match until the Big Ten season began Jan. 22. Add a broken leg for sophomore heavyweight Mike Dixon, a spinal cord injury for junior Tim Myers and a handful of other minor injuries, which hit the 1998-99 Hoosier squad hard. The team's success despite injuries impressed coach Duane Goldman. But he was more pleased with the lack of excuses once things got rough. "I'm very pleased with how they've worked," Goldman said. "They've had good attitudes, and they don't make any excuses. Everybody's tried to step up another level. As a staff, I think I can speak for all of us when I say we're really pleased with the effort." Although the Hoosiers did not have a great conference record, they did improve as the season progressed. "We made some pretty big improvements, obviously," Stanley said. "We moved up half our spots to 24th in the nation. But it could've been better. Without the tons of injuries I think we could have been a top-10 team. "We wrestled through a lot of adversity," Stanley said. "We didn't do as best as we could, but we showed we had enough balls to do it."in

is easy to measure a team's height. but heart is a totally different matter. With eight guards on its roster, the IU men's basketball team entered the 1998-99 season faced with questions concerning a lack of depth in the front court. While IU was undersized and, at times outmatched, the Hoosiers exhibited a toughness that grew throughout the year. The team's strong will became even more evident during the Big Ten season. After a blazing start in non-conference play, IU stumbled out of the gates in league play. But theHoosiers recovered and battled through numerous overtime contests to finish strong. Along the way, the Hoosiers received help from everyone. Junior guard A.J. Guyton and sophomore guard/forward Luke Recker continued to stand out. Forwards Larry Richardson, a junior, and freshman Kirk Haston made huge strides in their development. Nearly every player had a turn to shine as IL finished 23-11. The Hoosiers showcased an uncanny ability to come hack from large deficits. As the season came to a close, two recent trends popped up to dog the program. First, the Hoosiers were forced to defend their postseason tournament perfiffmances. The storm clouds then hovered around the team again when Recker announced he was leaving IU. Recker's transfer marked the third in three years. His decision to leave was just as unpredictable as many games during the season. The Hoosiers opened their 1998-99 season earlier than any other season in school history — on Nov. 7. IU faced what was supposed to be a tough test with back-to-back games against Seton Hall University and the University of South Carolina at the NABC Classic at the RCA Dome in Indianapolis. The Hoosiers couldn't have started the season any better. They blew by both schools, defeating Seton Hall 83-69 Saturday and South Carolina in the championship game 76-55 Sunday. IU's home opener at Assembly Hall wasn't easy for the Hoosiers. IU, meeting nearby Indiana State University for the first time since 1960, had its hands full with the Sycamores. Coached by former IU assistant Royce Waltman, Indiana State shocked the Hoosiers by running up a 19-point advantage at halftime. But IU, spurred by a rowdy Assembly Hall crowd, outscored the Sycamores 50-25 in the second half to win 76-70. The Hoosiers blasted their next opponent. the University of Alabama-Birmingham Blazers, 91-54. After playing four games in either Bloomington or Indianapolis, the Hoosiers headed to Hawaii for the Maui

Invitational over the Thanksgiving holiday.IU recorded two impressive wins to open the tournament, but couldn't handle the Syracuse University Orangemen's speed, athleticism and a tough zone defense in the championship game. The team suffered its first loss of the season, 76-63. After returning to Indiana, the Hoosiers traveled to university of Notre Dame. IU struggled with the Fighting Irish but led in the final stretch. Notre Dame had a last chance, as guard Jimmy Dillon took advantage of the opportunity and tied the game at 70 to force overtime. But the Hoosiers managed to get things going their way in the overtime and escaped South Bend with a 76-72 win. "It is tough to let a game get away in regulation and still win in overtime," coach Bob Knight said. IU then a faced a rarity — a top ten team at home in December. The No. 10 Temple University Owls were the first top ten team to play in Assembly Hall in the final month of the year since then-No. 4 Kansas came to Bloomington in December of 1994. The contest was nothing short of a thriller. Guyton hit a three-pointer with 5.5 seconds remaining to give the Hoosiers a 63-62 victory. Temple led by nine before IU mounted its rally. The Hoosiers reached within 58-55 when Guyton, who had only two points at that point, connected on his first three-pointer in nine attempts to tic the game. "I wasn't worried about my shot. 1 knew sooner or later I'd knock some shots down.- Guyton said. "Good shooters have to keep shooting and that's what I did." Temple took a two-point lead when Guyton took the ball from junior guard Luke Jimenez on the left wing, faked a pass, went up and released. Five and a half seconds remained for Temple. but Pepe Sanchez missed and the 17,149 fans in Assembly Hall went crazy. The team followed suit and mobbed Guyton on the court. "It's a big feeling, especially against a team like Temple, Guyton said. "You always strive to be the top contending team. I'm just happy for the team that I hit the shot." The next game marked a milestone in Knight's coaching career. He coached his 1,000 game Dec. 8 against the defending NCAA Champion University of Kentucky Wildcats at Freedom Hall in Louisville. The contest was a heart-stopper, but it didn't end in the Hoosiers' favor.

Photo by Matt McClain.

Kentucky built a nine-point lead with 1:21 to go in the game. The contest seemed out of reach, but then the unthinkable happened. It started raining threes for IU at the right time. Recker hit the first with 1:07 to go and then nailed another with 52 seconds to play to put the Hoosiers right back in the contest. IU gained possesion and looked to guard Dane Fife. The freshman handled the Kentucky pressure and hit the most important shot of his young IU career to send the Hoosiers into their second overtime in three games. But the comeback left the Hoosiers gasping in overtime. A Scott Padgett three-pointer and a technical foul by Knight put the game quickly out of reach. After that tough stretch, the Hoosiers found the holidays at home quite welcoming. In the 25th Indiana Classic at Assembly Hall, the Hoosiers walloped their opponents by an average of 25 points, with wins against Boise State and former IU player and assistant Dan Dakich's Bowling Green State University team.

"When you're here everyday, you forget the atmosphere, how special it is,- Dakich said. "I walked in tonight and it was such a great atmosphere and I had forgotten." The Hoosiers finished off the non-conference season with a 106-54 drubbing of University of San Francisco in the Hall and a 102-46 beating of Drake University in the first round of the Hoosier Classic at Market Square Arena in Indianapolis. The consecutive 100-plus point games was the sixth occurrence in school history, but the first time since 1993-94. The 56-point win over Drake was the second-largest victory margin in school history (65 vs. ND, 92-29, 1972). The consecutive 50-point victories marked the first time it had happened in school history.

success behind it, the team looked forward to beginning the Big Ten season. "This team's capable of a lot of things," Recker said. "Obviously we need to continue to improve to go where we want to go. But I think we're going in the right direction." The optimism was quickly averted. IU began the Big Ten season with three losses in its first four games. The Hoosiers looked sluggish while dropping road contests to Iowa, Michigan and Ohio State. Even their lone victory during the stretch, Jan. 3 against Illinois, was a struggle. IU's sloppy play resembled the weather. The Midwest began 1999 under the blanket of a huge snow storm, and the effects reached Bloomington. The smallest crowd in Assembly Hall history, 7,249 people, witnessed the Hoosiers' first victory of the new year, a 62-53 win against Illinois. IU lost the next two contests and faced its first "mustwin" situation of the season. Luckily for the Hoosiers their next opponent, Northwestern, entered the Jan. 13 meeting

with 28 consecutive losses at Assembly Hall. IU extended its home dominance of the Wildcats by holding off a late charge to take a 81-78 win, The Hoosiers escaped with the victory despite the efforts of NU center Evan Eschmeyer, who became the first person ever to record a triple-double at Assembly Hall. IU countered with William Gladness. The senior forward scored 13 points, including a crucial three-pointer to lead IU to victory. "It was the tape on my hand or something — it was just luck," Gladness said. "There weren't too many people expecting me to shoot that. It went in and we won by three, so it was a big shot." There are big shots and big games — and then there is "the" game. IU met Purdue for the first of two nationally televised contests Jan. 17 at West Lafayette. The Hoosiers stood at 0-3 in Big Ten road games and hadn't won a game at Mackey Arena since 1993. But those numbers went out the door when these two teams met.

So did the disappointing play of IU's front court. Junior forward Lynn Washington scored 12 points while Gladness added 13 as IU defeated Purdue 87-76. Both players grabbed 10 rebounds to help IU beat the Boilermakers on the boards and in the game. The Hoosiers grabbed a 4-2 lead and held on the rest of the way to pull to 3-3 in Big Ten play. IU dominated the early minutes of the first half, as the Hoosiers jumped out to a 21-8 lead by the 13:24 mark. Purdue cut IU's lead to three with under five minutes to play, but the Hoosiers responded to the Boilermakers' late charge and gained the 11-point win. "The game was lost in the first five minutes," Purdue coach Gene Keady said. "(IU) came out and battled, and their guys kicked our nannies on the boards. They took the game away from us. It was lost early in the game. They hung in there and did a good job of being warriors." The Hoosiers dropped their next two games, including an overtime battle against Minnesota. The 1998-99 Hoosiers became very accustomed to playing an extra session. That fact was no more evident than in IU's Jan. 31 game at Penn State. The Hoosiers needed not one, but two overtimes to stop their two-game skid. IU had to battle back all day long, and in the end, the final three of Guyton's career-high 33 points made the difference in a 98-95 win. Penn State held a 73-66 lead with 4:19 remaining in regulation. The Hoosiers scraped back to tie the game, only to find themselves down by two with 33 seconds to go. IU had the hall and missed two shots. The Hoosiers

maintained possession when Recker crashed the boards, grabbed the rebound and made a layup as the horn sounded to send the game to overtime. IU trailed again, this time by three, with time running out near the end of the first overtime. The Hoosiers turned to Guyton, who in turn delivered by hitting a three. The game went into double overtime. Knotted at 95, IU knew to look for Guyton. With the shot and game clock winding down, Guyton heaved a longdistance three-pointer. The ball went through the hoop to give IU a 98-95 lead. The Nittany Lions missed a last second twopoint attempt and IU escaped with the a much-needed win. "I threw it up as high as I could and hoped it would make it to the rim," Guyton said. "And it did. I was surprised as everybody else. A fade-away three at the buzzer's a very tough shot. But it went in." The Hoosiers then toppled Wisconsin 71-60 Feb. 3 at Assembly Hall. The victory evened IU's Big Ten mark at 5-5 with Purdue up next. The Feb. 9 contest marked the 175th meeting between the two teams. Unfortunately for IU, the outcome felt all too familiar. Purdue's Jarran Cornell drilled a three-pointer with 33 seconds to go in overtime to lift the Boilermakers to an 86-81 win. It marked the third time in four years that Purdue hit a clutch shot at the end of the game to defeat IU. "We just wanted to spread the court," Cornell said. "I came up there wide open. I don't know who set the screen, but whoever it was did a good job."

IU used a secret weapon to bounce back and defeat Northwestern in yet another overtime game. The Hoosiers implimented a 2-3 zone in the second half of the game and limited Eschmeyer's touches. Recker hit two clutch threepointers in the closing minutes of the game to send it into overtime. IU's defense wouldn't let the Wildcats score a single point in the extra period and escaped Welsh-Ryan Arena with a win. But the excitement didn't end at the conclusion of the game. The student section in the bleachers had continuously taunted ID during the game, including the phrase, "Hoosier Daddy." Knight was angered by the taunts and responded to the crowd after the game. "I just asked them, 'Who's your daddy now?'" Then, when Knight and O'Neill met at halfcourt, more fireworks erupted. "People were standing around, and I simply said to Kevin, 'that's not the way your crowd should behave with your team,— Knight said. "And Kevin said 'I have no control over it.' And I said, 'I know that.' And 1

started to walk away and I don't think he felt 1 understood him or heard him and he grabbed me. Well, I thought he was irritated and I said, 'hey, don't grab me.' I just told him, when a crowd starts chanting 'Hoosier-daddy, Hoosierdaddy,' I don't think we should have to put up with that. The crowd can get on my ass. They've all kinds of things to get on my ass for." By the post-game press conference both coaches were ready to smooth things over. "It was nothing really," O'Neill said. "Kind of a heat of the battle thing. There's no bigger supporter of Coach Knight than me." The close and tense Big Ten contests didn't end when the Hoosiers returned from Chicago. After scrapping back and forth, IU found itself ahead of Ohio State 67-66 with one minute left to go. But Buckeye guard Scoonie Penn stole the ball from Haston and raced to the other end of the court, where he was fouled. He connected on both free throws to give OSU a 68-67 lead. Guyton attempteda three, but it was errant and the Buckeyes came away with the rebound and the win. coniiimed

Men's Basketball 349

The Hoosiers had a comfortable lead when they hosted Michigan, but for the sixth time in seven contests, the outcome of the game was in doubt until the very end. IU used the freethrow line to its advantage to end up with a 7371 win. The Hoosiers hit 19 of 25 free throws in the second half and Recker hit 22 of 25 for the game. Richardson had a career-best 18 points and 12 boards while recording his firstever double-double. "This game is concentration," Knight said. "We sometimes have it and we sometimes don't. This is not a real smart basketball team that we have." The nail-biting and heart-stopping play continued as IU traveled to Champaign, Ill., to take on the last-place Illini. For 49 minutes the Hoosiers struggled to put points on the board as only Recker and Guyton recorded field goals. The rest of the team reappeared at the right time. IU trailed 53-51 when Lewis buried a three from the wing, giving IU the 5453 advantage. "The guy cheated up on A.J. and I was open on the wing," Lewis said. "That's what we practice for. I just stepped up and luckily for me, and the team, the shot went in." But the win wasn't safe yet. Gladness fouled Damir Krupalija going for the rebound from an errant Illinois attempt. Krupalija hit one of his two free throws to send the game into overtime. In the extra period, the post players made up for their absence during regulation. Haston and Gladness combined for 10 points in the overtime and the Hoosiers ran up the first four points in the extra stanza to get the win. The victory put IU at 8-7, over the .500 mark in the Big Ten for the first time during the season. After the game, Lewis said, -we're trying to set a new record. - The Hoosiers did just that. The overtime against Illinois marked IU's seventh of the season — it was the most IU played in any one season in school history and broke the Big Ten record previously held by OSU in 1982 with six. With the seven extra periods, including the Penn State double overtime thriller, IU played an entire extra game. Heading into senior night, the unlikely upset of Michigan defeating Wisconsin meant the Hoosiers could finish the Big Ten season tied for third with Iowa and Wisconsin if they beat the Hawkeyes. Since the Hoosiers would win the tiebreaker against the two teams, they would earn the third seed in the Big Ten Tournament, which would mean a bye in the first round. If they lost, they could fall as far as sixth and lose that bye. But the Hoosiers made sure to send seniors Rob Turner and Gladness out in good fashion. The score was tied at 15-15 when the Hawkeyes jumped on IU and built a 14-point lead. The Hoosiers woke up and outscored Iowa 17-4 during the final 5:31 of the half. Turner scored eight points during the comeback stretch. The Hoosiers went into halftime down by just one at 41-40. The game seesawed back and forth through the second half with 11 lead changes. With the Hoosiers up by nine, Lewis attempted to inbound the ball from the baseline behind the Hawkeyes basket. Freshman forward Jacob Jaacks guarded him tightly. As the five-seconds call inched closer, Lewis inbounded the ball and it bounced directly off Jaacks' face. The IU crowd erupted because he had taunted it earlier. The Iowa bench wanted a technical foul on Lewis, but instead, Iowa assistant coach Gary Close was issued a technical for jumping off the bench.

If he throws it from three feet away right into the guy's lace, the interpretation that I've been given in the past is that it could he expulsion from the game for an unsportsmanlike act, Iowa coach Tom Davis said. Knight disagreed. "If you're going to step over the (out-of-bounds) line, as they do about 90 percent of the time," Knight said, "you're going to get in the line of the pass once in a while." The incident seemed to awaken the Hawkeyes. With IU up by three points and 16.2 seconds left, the Hawkeyes targeted Gladness and his 64 percent free-throw shooting. Gladness sank both free throws. IU won 88-81, giving the Hoosiers the third seed in the second annual Big Ten Tournament Five Hoosiers finished in double figures, with Turner leading the way with 20 points. Knight, in a rare occurrence, awarded Turner the game ball to start off the senior night festivities.

The Hoosiers didn't stick around long enough to see much of the Big Ten Tournament at the United Center in Chicago. Upset-minded Illinois made IU pay for the close wins the Hoosiers had pulled off earlier in the season and crushed IU 82-66. The Illini grabbed 51 rebounds to the Hoosiers' 26, including 22 offensive hoards. "They just outplayed us period," Recker said. "They worked hard, they heat us to loose halls... deep down they wanted it more.The Hoosiers needed an about-face. and quickly. A week in Orlando provided IU with one final high and one last low. The high came in ILl's first-round game against George Washington University. IU cut, moved and pushed the ball up court with ease en route to a 108-88 win. The 108 points set a record for the most points III had scored in a NCAA Tournament game.

The Hoosiers put on a continued the shooting exhibition in the both halves, led by the strong play of Haston. Many wondered whether Haston, who had a broken left hand, would play. The injury to his non-shooting hand had severely limited him in the Hoosiers' loss to Illinois. Haston did play, and finished with a career-high 27 points. "We knew we played a big lineup and we were going to be a big part of the game," Haston said. "We wanted to help our guards as much as we could, we knew they would concentrate on our guards. I wanted to go out and show I could go out and play the way my hand was," For as well as IU played, the Hoosiers knew it was just one game. To advance on to the Sweet 16, IU had to get past a stacked St. John's squad. They couldn't.

23-11 defeat in the history of IU postseason play. The Hoosiers started fast once again. St. John's coach Mike Jarvis saw enough and switched to a zone. Once St. John's made the switch to the zone, it became a totally different game. The Red Storm went on a 13-0 run to take a 22-15 lead. St. John's went to half leading 45-30. The Red Storm put the game out of reach by opening the second half on a 12-4 run to pull away with the win. "We don't play against the zone well up top," Knight said. "We don't get the ball where it should go on top. That's something we really have to change and improve." The Hoosiers were left to ponder another early-round NCAA Tournament exit. IU hasn't advanced past the second round of the tournament since 1994. "You get tired of having to talk like this," Haston said. "You want to be talking about championships and not about next year.' in

Falling Short Women's Basketball team ends season with 11 straight losses s fellow seniors Kristi Green and Kristin Miller scrambled desperately around the floor, Cindy Kerns, LaKale Malone, Summar Maines and .Dani Thrush could only watch from the bench as their IU careers came to an end with an 88-69 defeat at the hands of the Michigan State Spartans. For the six seniors it marked the end of four seasons at IU, which included many high points but also numerous low ones. For the underclassmen, the loss marked the end to a disappointing season. "In the second half I just wanted to go out there and put it to them," freshman center Jill Chapman said, "I knew it could be the last game." The 1998-99 season started off quickly and with a great amount of hope. The Hoosiers, coming off one of the best seasons in school history, were an impressive 11-3 in the non-conference season, This included making the semifinals of the preseason Women's National Invitational Tournament. The Hoosiers defeated the University of Cincinnati 61-51 at Assembly Hall and Southwest Missouri State University 63-60 in front of over 6,000 fans in Springfield, Mo. IU then faced a difficult stretch of four games in four days. The stretch included having to play in the semifinals and consolation round of the WNIT before coming home and hosting the Full-O-Pep Classic. This stretch became even tougher due to the illness of starting point guard Green. Green, who led the Big Ten in minutes the previous year with an average of 38.3 minutes per game, battled valiantly through pneumonia. She averaged 37 minutes in the first three games, but scored only 11 points total during that stretch. Without their co-captain at full strength, the Hoosiers struggled, losing three consecutive games to Rutgers University, the University of Florida and the University of Akron before regaining their strokes in a 103-61 whitewashing of East Tennessee State University. Chapman led or tied for the lead in scoring during the last three games of this stretch, setting a tone for a freshman year which would see her make the AllBig Ten Freshman Team and earn an honorable mention for the All-Big Ten Team. "Her stats have been impressive," Assistant Coach Renee Reed said. "She has been put in a position where she needs to mature quickly, and she has lived up to the challenge." After the loss to Akron, the Hoosiers went on an eight-game winning streak to close out the non-conference season. During this stretch, IU defeated highly-touted Vanderbilt University and Western Kentucky University. Kerns earned Big Ten Player of the Week honors for the week of Dec. 21. During that stretch, Kerns averaged 20.3 points and eight rebounds a game. Kerns became IU's MVP, collecting a team-high 12 double-doubles and averaging 15.2 points and seven rebounds per game.

With an 11-3 record, hopes were high for IU as everyone believed the team could contend in the Big Ten and earn a spot in the NCAA Tournament. But the Hoosiers started the conference season cold, losing their first four games. Especially crushing was a 68-66 home loss to Northwestern on Dec. 30. The Hoosiers rebounded from a 10-point deficit in the second half to take a 57-56 lead with 7:50 remaining. The two teams traded baskets from then on, but Northwestern's Megan Chawansky hit a 12-footer with 5.4 seconds left to give Northwestern the edge. The Hoosiers gave the hall to Thrush at the opposite end of the court, but her driving shot did not fall and the Hoosiers left the floor in defeat. IU seemed to have at least partially righted its ship as the team won two out of the next three. Chapman scored 19 second-half points as the Hoosiers won their first Big Ten game, defeating Wisconsin 69-65. Thrush also contributed to the victory, scoring 17 points and dishing out 10 assists. The

Hoosiers impressed Coach Jim Izard with the quality of play in the Wisconsin game. "I thought that for the second straight game, Dani played very well for us," Izard said. "I also think that down the stretch, Jill got some key offensive boards and putbacks for us. As a team, we were aggressive and did what we needed to do to win the game." Thrush ended the season with 400 career assists to finish second on IU's all-time list. She and Green also became the 13th and 14th players to reach 1,000 points in their careers. Thrush ended her career with 1,017 points and Green with 1,006. After losing to Ohio State, the Hoosiers picked up their second win of the Big Ten season by defeating Minnesota 8066. IU trailed 4-2 early in the game but went on an 18-0 run over nine minutes. Despite an 18-4 run by the Gophers to come back in the second half, IU was able to put away the game with a 17-5 run sparked by a three-pointer from freshman Heather Cassady.

13-18 What came next was out of the realm of anyone's imagination — an 11-game losing streak to finish the season. It began with a 97-62 loss at West Lafayette to then-No. 3 Purdue. However a week later, the Hoosiers played perhaps their most impassioned game of the season. IU hosted Purdue for a Friday night game at Assembly Hall. A record crowd of more than 5,500 fans saw the Hoosiers put a giant scare into the Boilermakers. "Indiana came in very focused," Purdue coach Carolyn Peck said. They hit shots early, got on a roll. Their shots were on, and they were clicking together... IU came out hot, hitting its first six shots and taking a 10-point lead early in the game. A Purdue run put the Boilermakers up 32-31 late in the first half. Just before halftime, IU showed some spark and went on a sevenpoint run to end the half with a six-point lead. The Hoosiers kept the lead until Stephanie White-McCarty hit a three-pointer to put Purdue up 65-63 with just under 11 minutes to play. After exchanging the lead twice, the Boilermakers took control for good when Katie Douglas hit a driving layup with under nine minutes left. Junior Kay Morgan, a 5'6" guard, led the Hoosiers, sinking a career-high six three-pointers and scoring 20 points. "We do have smaller guards than some teams," Reed said. "But Kay makes up for it sometimes with her quickness." White-McCarty garnered Big Ten and National Player of the Year awards at the end of the season, while the Boilermakers collected their first-ever National Championship. "Their whole team is hard to defend because they drive the ball so well," Izard said. "For 40 minutes, Purdue is hard to stop. They drive and finish as well as any team I've coached against."

The Hoosiers were unable to capitalize on any momentum they may have gained, losing the next game to Ohio State 76-58. After that game the losses continued to pile up. An 86-69 loss to Michigan State and a narrow 73-69 loss to Iowa preceded the final home game of the season. The six seniors were honored before the game, but IU proved unable to capitalize on the adrenaline, as the team fell 104-69 to Illinois. Kerns played well in her final home game, scoring 22 points, but the Hoosiers did not have any answers for Illini backups guard Allison Curtin. who came off the bench to score 23 points. After a 79-68 loss at Northwestern, the Hoosiers were desperate for a win. Kerns, playing in her final regular-season game, almost provided it singlehandedly by scoring 37 points. However, not many other players helped, and IU lost to Michigan 94-85 to finish the regular season 2-14 in the conference. A discouraged Kerns credited her teammates for her extraordinary single-game performance. "I just credit my teammates today," Kerns said. "They passed me the ball and I guess I felt really focused. I just wanted to win so bad." The Big Ten Tournament offered no salvation for the Hoosiers, as they lost to Michigan State 88-69 in the first round. IU ended its season 13-18 overall, disappointing after starting off 11-3. Although the season ended with a discouraging finish, individual Hoosiers collected awards. Chapman, Kerns and Morgan finished with double-digit scoring averages. IU also had two All-Big Ten honorable mention selections in Kerns and Chapman and Chapman was selected to the women's All Big Ten team. Individually, the Hoosiers accomplished many things during the 1998-99 season, but as a team they were unable to combine their talent successfully.

Beating the 0 dds Men's tennis begins the season ranked No. 80 in

the nation but finishes at the No. 40 spot. one expected much from this year's men's tennis N(team. The Hoosiers entered the season without three of their top six players from the 1997-98 season. Without any seniors, the three juniors on the team, Ricardo Jordan, George McGill and Gabriel Montilla, provided the leadership for the underclassmen. Preseason polls ranked them 80th and predicted a finish near the bottom of the Big Ten. But the Hoosiers had plans of their own, playing hard and having one of their best seasons in years. "The guys were eager to show what they could do and they worked hard in practice everyday to be better," coach Ken Hydinger said. Eyes began to focus on the young Hoosiers early, as they won seven of their first nine matches and challenged highly-ranked teams. Perhaps the turning point of the season came when the team traveled to Baton Rouge, La., to play Louisiana State University. They promptly defeated the Tigers who were ranked 20th at the time and went on to be the eventual SEC champion. The team's momentum continued to grow and it showed in every match as the young players matured and fought like seasoned veterans all year long. McGill led the Hoosiers' charge through the Big Ten season by becoming the first IU tennis player ever to go through the entire conference season without a loss. At No. 3 singles McGill dominated his competition. finishing 10-0 in the conference and 14-4 overall. "It was a great season for me," McGill said. "I finally started to play like I knew I could and expected of myself." Another Hoosier standout was sophomore Ian Arons, who stepped up to play No. 1 singles and faced some of the nation's top players all year long. Arons, who went 8-13 on the season with a 4-6 Big Ten

by t.j

record, was recognized for his contributions and was selected first team All-Big Ten. "It was the best feeling I've ever had," Arons said. "It's the best accomplishment of my life so far." Sophomore transfer Milan Rakvica was also an integral part of the team's success. Rakvica, a native of Zlin in the Czech Republic. had an impressive winning streak of 17 matches during the season, finishing with a record of 19-3 overall and 9-1 in the conference. He proved to be one of the Hoosiers most consistent victors on the court and adjusted well to Big Ten tennis. Montilla and Jordan both had successful seasons as Montilla gained his 50th career singles victory at No. 2 singles, and Jordan teamed up with Arons in doubles to lead the team in doubles wins with 18. Sophomore Paul Jacobson continued his steady play finishing with 15 singles wins in the regular season and 10 doubles wins with his teammate Rakvica. Freshman Rahman Smiley showed real potential, as he started at No. 1 doubles with Montilla and played No. 6 singles all year for IU. Smiley rebounded from a rough start to finish 7-9 on the season in singles and collected nine wins in doubles. After completing his 15th season coaching the Hoosiers, Hydinger improved his IU record to 233-1561. Hydinger once again proved his ability to be a winning coach by guiding a young team to a fifth-place finish in the conference and IU's first NCAA tournament berth in three years. "Our team put it on the line all year long and fought hard to achieve what they did," Hydinger said. "It was just a great all-around effort." By the end of the season, the Hoosiers posted a 1410 record. The team's continuous improvement throughout the season helped it gain a No. 40 national rank. proving the critics wrong. Ej

a Juniors Ricardo _Jordan and Gabriel Montilla represent Puerto Rico at the Davis Cup

le tennis is known as an individual sport, when two players combine their skills they can become a lethal combination. Juniors Gabriel Montilla and Ricardo Jordan met each other when they were eight years old. They both grew up in Puerto Rico, went to school together and played tennis together. They traveled with each other and at age 16, then began to play doubles together. The duo decided they both wanted to come to Indiana University based on two things — the business school and the tennis program. The two shared a room in Foster Quad freshman year and moved into a house near campus sophomore year. Both Jordan and Montilla played for IU's men's tennis team but did not play doubles together for the Hoosiers. Jordan played No. 3 doubles, while Montilla played No. 2 singles and No. 1 doubles. But March 6, the two traveled to Trinidad and Tobago, where they paired up to represent Puerto Rico in The Davis Cup. "It gives you a sense of respect to play for your country," Jordan said. After the Davis Cup, Jordan and Montilla rejoined the IU team and played throughout spring break. But as the semester came to a midpoint, Montilla said they were more than ready for the Davis Cup. "We're excited," Montilla said. "It is definitely time for us to take a break." Puerto Rico did not have a team until seven years ago. Now the Puerto Rican Tennis Association sent a singles player, a doubles team and an alternate to represent the country. Montilla and Jordan joined a student from Ball State University and a 17-year-old, who still lives in Puerto Rico, to form the team. Men's tennis coach Ken Hydinger supported the duo's decision. "I am pleased for them," Hydinger said. "It is an opportunity of a lifetime to represent your country." During their week in Puerto Rico, Montilla and Jordan played six matches, a combination of singles and doubles. They won all six matches and moved up to Group Two of the Davis Cup. "It was awesome," they both said in sync. Overall the duo described it as a great experience. "It was our first time playing in a real Davis Cup and we won all of our matches," Montilla said. "It will be an experience that we remember forever,Jordan added. "We may not realize it now, but

someday we Playing together for four years and knowing each other for 12, Jordan and Montilla formed a strong connection on the court. "I don't even have to look at him and I know where he's going," Montilla said. "And the same goes for him." Jordan and Montilla experienced much success playing together as a doubles team. In high school, they captured the Western Open Doubles title. In fall of 1996, they advanced to the semifinals of the 18-and-under National Indoor Doubles Championship in Houston. In the summer of 1998, the duo won the USTA National Amateur Doubles Championship after collecting wins at Ohio State, the University of Notre Dame and IU. They won a gold tennis ball for their victories. Individually, both players have also excelled. In high school, Jordan went unbeaten for six years. He placed second in doubles at the Puerto Rican Championship of 1996 and placed third in Puerto Rico in 18s. He won awards for Rookie of the Year and Most Improved Player for his high school team. In his first three years of play at IU, Jordan collected career record of 18-25 (singles) and 33-22 (doubles). Montilla ended high school with a 45-2 singles record and an undefeated doubles record. He won awards for Rookie of the Year, Most Improved Player and Most Valuable Player. In his first three years at IU, Montilla accumulated a career record of 53-43 (singles) and 55-40 (doubles). Despite the change in climate, the IU experience has been a good one for both Jordan and Montilla. "I've enjoyed it," Jordan said. "Every day is a challenge. Some days are more of a mental challenge." For Montilla, the hardest adjustment was the conditioning. When conditioning began his freshman year, the team had to run around the golf course two times. He said he would end up walking part of the way. "It's a lot of work, three hours a day, every day," Montilla said. "But it's been fun playing and traveling with the team." Jordan said getting used to the academics and learning to manage his time were the hardest things for him. "You always have to he early to practice," Jordan said. "We've been here two and a half years and we can count the times that we've been late." Both players also said they missed their families. They traveled home whenever they got the chance, over winter break and in the summer. And their families came to visit them once in awhile, Both players had professional aspirations, but focused on completing their degrees so they would have something to fall back on. Along with the education Jordan and Montilla received, they gained experience on the court and in real life. "There's a thousand different personalities on the team," Jordan said. "But the relationships you build in college will be with you for a long time. There is a respect and understanding of everybody on the team."

Falling lust Sh ort Women's tennis loses 3-4 to Wisconsin, ending its hopes of a Big Ten Championship repeat inning was nothing new to Indiana University's women's tennis team. After all, 15 of the last 19 Big Ten titles resided within the hallowed walls of Assembly Hall and the office of head coach Lin Loring. After an improbable run to the top in the 1997-98 season, the Hoosiers said goodbye to three seniors who had been pivotal to the Hoosiers success for the past several years. But the Hoosiers were able to look toward the 1998-99 season with a great deal of optimism. Despite the loss of the seniors, a relatively young core returned to the team and Loring put together another fine recruiting class, a testament to the consistent excellence of the program. As always, the Big Ten and IC's non-conference schedule would provide some of the nation's toughest competition, and health would be the key to determining the fate of the Hoosiers in 1999. And that is where fate intervened, dashing the Hoosiers' hopes of a Big Ten championship just as it had in 1997. Indiana lost three key players, seniors Candace Donahoe and Kelly Fitzgerald and freshman Karie Schlukebir at the start of the season and the Hoosiers were never able to recover. "I said at the beginning of the season that the team that could remain injury free would win the Big Ten, and they did," Loring said. "There were eight teams this year that were very close. We lost two scholarship players, Schlukebir and Donahoe, for the season. That made the difference between us finishing first and seventh.After using the fall tournament season to discover each player's strengths and weaknesses, the Hoosiers knew they would have an uphill battle ahead of them when the regular season began. IC jumped out to a 4-0 start before running into some of the nation's best tennis teams in Duke University and the University of North Carolina. "With all of the matches we had against the nation's top 20 teams, we got a chance to play the best of the best. I'd rather play those teams any day than play teams just to have a winning record," junior Zahra Ahamed said. "In the Big Ten we were really close in a lot of matches. 1 think

that the Big Ten was one of the deepest conferences in the country this year," Ahamed said. "The one through six players on every team were capable of winning on any given day, and that says something for your opponent." Even with no seniors on the roster, several athletes established themselves as forces to he reckoned with in the Big Ten for the next few years. Junior Jessica Anderson established herself as a solid No. 1 singles player after playing at No. 5 as a sophomore. Anderson compiled an outstanding record of 28-11 overall, and registered a 72 Big Ten mark, defeating some of the conference's toughest players along the way. "Jessica had a really good season for us," junior Becky Wallihan said. "After starting out at No. 2 and No. 3, she stepped up to No. 1 and defeated a lot of top-notch players. She always had her head in the game and we knew that we could always count on her to give her best for the team." After defeating last year's Big Ten Player of the Year (Northwestern's Katherine Nasser), Anderson continued to show her mental toughness through the end of the season, defeating Wisconsin's Barbara Urbanska, 6-3, 1-6, 6-4, at the Big Ten tournament after dropping a pair of 6-3 sets to her less than a week earlier. "Jessica had a great year," Loring said. "She moved from number five last year to our number one this year and was an All-Big Ten selection. That's a huge improvement in one years time." Freshman Amanda Field was perhaps the team's greatest surprise, grabbing 20 singles wins and 25 doubles victories in her first collegiate season. The highly decorated two-time Florida state champion made her presence felt immediately, as she won seven of her first singles matches and 16 of her first 20 doubles affairs. Field also withstood the rigors of her first Big Ten competition, compiling an impressive 10-4 mark at No. 4 singles, including two key victories at the Big Ten Championship. Although the season ended short of the team's hopes, it was a year to learn from and to build on.

Makmg a Splash Water polo team continues to improve in second season, finishing 16th in the nation and second in the Big Ten and Midwest Region

n just its second season of varsity competition, the IU women's water polo team proved it was already one of the dominant programs in the Midwest and a growing national power. The Hoosiers (21-18) reached the National Championship tournament and set a standard for future success. At the beginning of the season, coach Barry King had high expectations for his team after the Hoosiers collected 26 wins during their inaugural season. "We're trying to establish ourselves as the premiere program in the Midwest and as one of the top four programs in the East," King said. "We want to be in the top ten." A successful regular and postseason nearly accomplished all of King's goals. The Hoosiers made the national championships after collecting a 4-1 record at the Midwest regionals. IU's only loss at the regionals was to archrival Michigan, a team that had a habit of handing the Hoosiers a loss or two. In two years of varsity competition, IU defeated Michigan only once. "Our main thing is we want to he successful at nationals, but it would be nice to beat (Michigan)," sophomore defender Molly Fonner said. At nationals, IU lost to top-ranked University of Southern California 17-2, then dropped its second game to San Jose State University 7-2. In those games, sophomore driver Kristin Carpenter's two goals gave her 51, breaking fellow sophomore driver Deb Simone's single-season record of 50, set during the 1998 campaign. In the consolation bracket games, IU lost to the University of Maryland 12-8, then fell to conference rival Michigan 5-3. The Hoosiers' year turned out to be an overall success, although the squad encountered many twists and turns. After a rocky start to the season in February, with the Hoosiers losing all five games at the University of CaliforniaSan Diego Arena Invitational. their fortunes improved after returning home. At home the team heat Michigan State and Miami University of Ohio in the Tortilla Flat Invitational. IU fell 6-8 to Michigan in the final, the program's first home loss at the varsity level. The Wolverines continued to plague the Hoosiers throughout the season. IU then took six of 10 games, including a sweep of Harvard University and a 4-4 record on a trip to California. continued

"Harvard was a decent team for us to play against; the^ had a strong defense," Carpenter said. "(For) us just practicing our motion plays would not have been as effective had we not had our games." The Hoosiers' record stood at 8-11, but because all the team's losses came at the hands of top 20 teams, IU found itself ranked. The Hoosiers were red hot upon returning from California. The squad went 9-2, with both losses coming at the hands of Michigan. The first loss happened when IU traveled to Ann Arbor for the Michigan Invitational. The second loss came in the final game of the Big Ten Tournament. Simone brought home tournament MVP honors after posting seven goals, six assists and 24 steals. Carpenter and Fonner made the first team, while 37 6 Sports

sophomore driver Sheri Fagley made the second team. At the Midwest Regional Finals on April 17-18, IU made it to the championship game against Michigan. The Wolverines once again had the Hoosiers' number, winning 76 in overtime. By placing second at regionals, the squad earned the No. 16 seed at the National Collegiate Water Polo Championship, where the Hoosiers fell in all four contests. "We created some opportunities but were unable to execute and finish them," King said. "We had a lot of chances but we did not cash them in." After completing its second season, the water polo team posted a 21-18 record for the season and a 47-27-1 varsity record. The Hoosiers ended the season ranked 16th in the nation and second in both the Big Ten and the Midwest region, an impressive accomplishment for a second-year team.in

Dropping the B all Softball endures a heart-breaking season, ending with the most losses in school history

his wasn't the season the IU softball team expected. IU wasn't gunning for a Big Ten title — the 1998 squad finished 13-31-1. But they also weren't anticipating the most losses in IU history (40), the school's longest losing streak (16), which ended the season, or a 3-21 Big Ten record that was not only the worst in the conference, but the poorest in IU history. Players and coaches used the preseason to talk about the different attitude of the team, how fun everything was and how the '99 squad would be much improved. But in the end, it wasn't meant to be. At the start of the year, the coaches boasted a positive future for the team. "If we stay within ourselves and do the job that we can do as a team, then we can be some spoilers and beat some good teams," assistant coach Donna Bonebrake said. The season's first series was a good indicator of the rest of the year. IU traveled to Tuscaloosa, Ala., for the "alma Bash," but came out on the wrong side of the "bashing." The Hoosiers went 1-4, including the first-ever NCAA softball win for the University of Pittsburgh. After a four-game series with Ohio University was rained out, the Hoosiers left Bloomington for a spring break tour of Tennessee and Missouri. In nine days, IU competed in the University of Tennessee Tournament and the University of Missouri Tournament, taking seven of 15 games. Returning to campus for the second half of the season, IU's record stood at 8-12. IU kept up the frantic game pace, playing back-to-back doubleheaders two days after arriving home. They split two games at home with Indiana State University before sweeping Butler University on the road. The Hoosiers were just two games below .500, and they were about to embark upon a 14game homestand. "I think it will be good for us since we are at home, finally," freshman catcher Brooke Monroe said. "Hopefully, we'll be able to get some fans to support us."

Unbeknownst to the Hoosiers, the roof was about to cave in. IU started by going 0-4 in its own tournament, losing two games to Ball State University and two more to Illinois State University. "We expected to be 0-4," Bonebrake said, "not 0-4 this weekend. We're very disappointed." But it would get worse. After the Hoosiers swept Miami University of Ohio, Northwestern came to Bloomington for a three-game series that, due to rain, was forced to start and end Sunday. The Wildcats took it to the Hoosiers, accomplishing the rare tripleheader sweep and giving the Hoosiers three black eyes to start their Big Ten season. Three days later, IU beat Ohio State twice, and three days after that, the Hoosiers split a home double dip with Wisconsin. But that would be IU's last Big Ten victory of the season. IU's record stood at 16-21, 3-4 in the Big Ten. The Hoosiers dropped the final game of the Wisconsin series, lost one to Ball State and split a twogame series with the University of Notre Dame. The Hoosiers then traveled to Iowa, where they were swept in three games. "It seems like we don't have any confidence up

there at the plate," junior left fielder Staci Meek said. "We're looking at the good pitches and swinging at the bad one; it seems like we're just guessing." IU never won again. The Hoosiers dropped a doubleheader to Purdue, three games to Minnesota, two to Michigan State, three to Penn State and three to Michigan to conclude their season. IU's season-ending 16-game losing streak brought an end to a tough, troubling year. In the team's toughest season, senior second baseman Khara Good came through, hitting a team-high .311 while hitting three home runs and tallying 12 RBI. "Khara had made great strides in her game," coach Diane Stephenson said. "Her best asset to our team is her mental game." Junior Teresa Martinez (8-15, 2.95 ERA) and freshman Allison Cooke (8-15, 3.63) took the lead on the mound, starting 23 and 22 games respectively. In the field, Monroe led the team with five home runs and 29 RBI, while batting .292 on the year. Meek finished second on the team with a .297 average and placed third in RBI with 23. Good and senior third baseman Jaime Thedford completed their IU careers in a monumental season for the Hoosiers. Unfortunately, it was monumental in a negative sense. in

A Near Miss Baseball team three wins away from Big Ten Tournament berth.

lose but no cigar quickly became the slogan for the baseball team. For the second consecutive season, IU entered the season's last weekend needing a good result to claim one of the four slots in the Big Ten tournament. And for the second consecutive year, IU lost three out of four games, and finished fifth in the conference. The Hoosiers (37-17, 14-14 Big Ten) finished 1999 with the same Big Ten record as in 1998, and again found themselves on the sidelines during the postseason. The season, which started when IU took 20 of its first 23 games, ended when the Hoosiers lost three games against regular-season champion Ohio State. The Hoosiers entered their final weekend leading Illinois byone game, needing any combination of three IU wins or Illini losses against Purdue to claim their first postseason berth since their 1996 Big Ten Championship. IU lost the first three, while Illinois beat Purdue three times. "Everyone was pretty sad," sophomore designated hitter Dan Haegele said. "We kind of expected it — I didn't think Purdue could heat Illinois after we didn't take care of what we should have." Despite the end of the season, IU recorded more victories than in any year since 1996. "We finished on a good note," coach Bob Morgan said. "We were the only team to beat Ohio State at home. We've got a lot of young kids that played well." The year had its fair share of positives. Junior outfielder Doug DeVore, who would later be drafted in the 12th round by the Arizona Diamondbacks, gained first-team All-Big Ten status by slugging 19 home runs and knocking in 65 runs. The home run and RBI total were the fourth-best in IU history. Haegele, junior right-hander Chris Wilson and senior right-hander Jason Torres also gained All-Big Ten status, with Haegele and Torres gracing third-team and Wilson garnering second-team recognition. coutintted

IU opened its season with seven consecutive victories, scoring 10 runs or more in five games. The Hoosiers' first loss, ironically, came to Illinois in a twogame weekend series at the University of Kentucky. The 16-10 loss, a rare non-conference battle with a Big Ten team, saw senior staff ace Chad Smith give up 10 runs (seven earned). The Hoosiers won 13 of their next 15 games before entering Big Ten season. "Experience is the reason (we're hitting so well). There's a lot of guys back from last year's team, and a lot of guys have confidence at the plate," senior outfielder Jason Williams said. "The way we're hitting the ball, I want to play as many games as we can." Once the Big Ten season began, the winning streak halted, Penn State took three of four from IU in the conference opener. The Hoosiers came back to sweep Purdue in four games, but home series losses to Michigan State and Minnesota left IU 7-9 in the Big Ten with three consecutive road series remaining. With five teams battling

for the final playoff berth, things looked bleak for IU. But the Hoosiers put themselves back into contention with a series sweep of Northwestern and series split at Michigan. The weekend at Michigan put IU back into position to claim a postseason berth, as they led Illinois by one game. Ohio State shattered those hopes. DeVore led IU in just about everything, rapping out team highs in home runs, RBI, hits (72) and slugging percentage (.750). Haegele led the squad in hitting (.370) and on-base percentage (.496) while notching three home runs and 39 RBI. Senior catcher Brandt Childs ended a two-year stay at IU by hitting .304 with 10 home runs and 40 RBI. Torres and Smith anchored the pitching staff, as Smith went 5-6 with a 5.01 ERA and Torres 4-2 with a 3.41 ERA. Sophomore Nick Otte (8-1) led the team win wins while Wilson saved eight games, an IU record. Freshman Zack McClellan (7-1) led all freshmen in victories.

Sprint to the Finish Track and field team tries to capitalize off the success of the indoor season, but falls short at the Big Tens

t the start of the 1999 Outdoor season, the men's and women's Track and Field teams were optimistic. They were each coming off solid indoor performances that saw the men take fourth in the Big Ten Championships while the women took the third spot. The teams started the outdoor season after spring break in the Baldy Castillo Invitational in Tempe, Arizona. Although the meet was not a team-scoring event, some Hoosiers ran subpar times in Tempe. Before the following week's met, men's coach Marshall Goss expressed his disappointment that the team had not performed well in the Invitational. "We don't talk about individuals, we talk about the team, Goss said. "Last week the team didn't run well. We must improve." Both Hoosier teams improved the following weekend as they competed in the Indiana Big Four Meet in Terre Haute. The men's team finished first, scoring 211 points to easily outdistance runner-up Purdue, which had 179.5 points. Third place Indiana State (163) and Ball State (106.5) rounded out the field.

On the women's side, the Hoosiers finished second, 12 points behind Ball State, which finished with 134 points in the meet. The Hoosiers defeated Indiana State, which finished with 117 points. Purdue women's team did not compete in this meet. The Hoosiers returned home the following week to host Cincinnati and Western Michigan in a scoring meet. Going into the meet, Goss said the Hoosiers were hungry for another victory. "We are actually looking for improvement from week to week, to say we are getting in shape, we are improving, we are getting healthy," Goss said."We still have that competitive edge. We want to heat somebody and burn them." Both Hoosier teams burned their competition that weekend, as they each took home first-place honors in the meet. The men tallied 153 points to easily outdistance Cincinnati and Western Michigan, which tallied 126 and 123 points, respectively. The women's team was no slouch either as the Hoosiers matched the men's output with 153 points to thoroughly dominate the meet over Cincinnati (123) and Western Michigan (118). "The hardest thing is we have to be able to cope with success," men's team sprinter Raheem Ellis said. "We've been successful the last two weeks, (but) now we have to keep training like we lost. And we've got to win again; we can't slack off this week." Women's coach Randy Heisler, although pleased with the win, still foresaw that his team's relative lack of depth could hurt it in later meets. They had shown quality; they just needed more quantity. "We've got good kids, we just don't have a lot of them yet," Heisler said. "We won our fair share of events today and that is a big key. For us to be good in a dual or three-way meet, we have to win every meet we have a chance to win." 'I'uneups hosting Illinois, at the Penn Relays, and at Purdue followed in the next few weeks. But all were slim pickings compared to what awaited them in West Lafayette in May. Before the Illinois meet, women's coach Randy Heisler had noted that the athletes were not trying to push themselves to the limit every day; rather, they were saving their best performances for when they counted. "Everybody is training really hard right now," Heisler said. "Nobody is trying to peak and see where their performances take them right now. We're just training and training hard." Purdue hosted the Big Ten Championships in West Lafayette, but the team performances were disappointing, especially when compared to the progress the teams had made indoors. The men's team finished eighth with 64 points, far behind the Big Ten Champion Minnesota, which tallied 149.5. Meanwhile, the women took seventh with 69 points as the host Boilermakers tallied 143 points. Indoors, five Hoosiers had qualified for the NCAA Championships. But outdoors, only two took the honors. But they did well, with Tom Chorny taking eighth in the men's steeplechase final and Krista Keir finishing 13th nationally in the discus. Both Hoosier teams are young, and should do well with continued improvement in the 2000 season.

On the Green The men's golf team celebrates the beginning of a new era

The start of the 1998-1999 men's golf season signaled a changing of the guard at IU. Gone were three faces who had become synonymous with Indiana golf over the years and played integral roles in the Hoosiers' Big Ten Championship in 1998. After nine years and two Big Ten titles with the men's team, head coach Sam Carmichael decided to step down as men's coach to devote his time fully to the women's team, something he had originally clone before taking the dual role in 1990. Also missing were 1998 graduates Randy Leen and josh Brewer, two of the greatest to ever wear the Indiana cream and crimson. Enter the new look. led by first-year head coach Mike Mayer and senior Brent Landry. Both were looking to step out of the shadows of their predecessors in 1999, and both did so in convincing fashion. They knew the road would not be easy if the Hoosiers were to repeat as Big Ten champions in 1999. Without Leen, a three-time Big Ten Player of the Year, and Brewer, a former All-Big Ten selection, IU was without a go-to guy for the first time in recent memory. Enter Landry. After three seasons of watching and learning under Leen, it was Landry's year to step up and shine. He did so in amazingly. Known for his competitive spirit and long driving skills, Landry took charge of the team, pacing the squad with a 74.1 average and earning All-Big Ten honors. "Brent really got a new life this year," Mayer said. "He really kind of struggled here for three years, but this year he had a chance to show what he could really do, and he came through for us. He had an outstanding senior year." After starting the fall season off slowly at the Northern Intercollegiate, Landry and the Hoosiers rebounded nicely to their two best finishes of the season. After an impressive third-place finish at the Legends of Indiana, the Hoosiers carded a three-round total of 870 at the Xavier Invitational, their best of the season. The score earned them second place, just two strokes behind Eastern Michigan University, after leading for much of the tournament. That was an outstanding tournament for us, both as a team and for Landry. It was disappointing because we wanted to win and we knew we should have won, but the guys played well. It was our best tournament of the year," Mayer said. Landry proved to he the Hoosiers' leader with his stellar performance at Xavier. The senior carded a three-round total of 212, including an IU record-low 65 on day two, and led for much of the tournament before falling into a fourth-place tie on the final day. After a strong showing at Stanford University to end the fall season, Mayer was optimistic about his team's chances heading into the spring. "After the fall season I was really encouraged by what I saw and the effort that the kids put forth," he said. "I saw some good things happening with the senior Brent Landry and the sophomore Steve Wheatcroft and we had some high hopes and some high expectations for the spring and I think that perhaps those expectations got in the way a little bit." The spring season did not turn out as the Hoosiers might have hoped, and they faced some of the nation's toughest competition. Indiana finished in the middle of the pack in every spring tournament and despite the solid play of Lanclr■•and \X"heatcroft

(who carded a 74.5 scoring average for the season [he lack of a bonafide leader was evident. "Steve had a really good season for us. His stroke average improved by three shots as did Landry's. - Mayer said. "We were just lacking that low-number player this year that you need to have success. We didn't have that guy shooting in the 60s this year, and that's where you get separated from the Northwesterns and the Minnesotan." Indiana's last chance to salvage the season would have to come against one of the nations toughest conference fields at the Big Ten championships. "Nobody on this team played the way that we thought we could have played this year, and we really feel that we let Brent down," Wheatcroft said. "We had high hopes in the fall and played really well but really didn't play well at all in the spring. We always thought, however, that we could win at any time and that if we could play at our levels that we could still win the Big Ten." The Hoosiers finished a disappointing 10th place, defeating only archrival Purdue, who had already accepted a NCAA bid bel(lre the tournament, a testament to the overall strength of the league. "The competition was great this year, our conference and district just keeps getting better and better," Wheatcroft said. "The last two NCAA Champions (Northwestern's Luke Donald took low medal honors in 1999) have come out of theBig Ten and Northwestern finished third in the nation. There were four or five teams from our district that received NCAA bids - it's tough playing that kind of competition week in and week out, but that's where we have to get to.Despite faltering at the end, Mayer and the team remained in good spirits. "I vas very pleased with this season.- \layer said. "It was a learning year for me as a first year head coach, it was definitely different than I could a have ever expected."

From Tee to G reen The women's golf team celebrates another winning season, but expectations fall short at NCAA Regionals

even Big Ten titles in 12 years and nine NCAA appearances since 1985 marked the dynasty the Indiana University women's golf team began in the mid-1980s. And this year proved to he no exception as the Hoosiers head into the 1998-99 season with high expectations and veteran players. Although the makeup of the team changed yearly, the goals the women set did not. "Our goals are to win the Northern Intercollegiate Invitational, win the Big Ten Championship and qualify for NCAA Regional, which gives us an opportunity to qualify for nationals," ??-year coach Sam Carmichael said at the start of the fall season. Despite the graduation of Jennifer Gray, a member of the All-Big Ten team in each of her four seasons, the Hoosiers returned four starters from the 1998 team which finished first at the Big Ten Championship and 13th at the NCAA Championship. Seniors Erin Carney, Michelle Hatfield and Jennifer Seger stepped up to lead the team throughout the season — on and off the course. "I don't think you can have any better leadership than I've got right now with those three girls. They're all great individuals and wonderful people, and their desire to play well and to win is very great," Carmichael said. "I think with those three girls providing the leadership, which they will, it will really help. They will motivate the younger girls to work hard, and we should have a good year from this point." Carney, Hatfield and Seger were named to the 1998 All--Big Ten team, with Carney named the 1998 All-Big Ten Player of the Year. Carney, the second woman golfer in IU history to be named a first-team AllAmerican, led the team with a 75.2 stoke average. Carney, the first team captain for the Hoosiers since Carmichael arrived in 1981, was medalist of the Big Ten Championship and was named Big Ten Player of the Year for the second consecutive season. Carmichael commented on his reasons for choosing to name a team captain after many years without. "She did a tremendous job leading the team last year and getting (her teammates) to work hard. I felt she deserved to be named our team captain." Juniors Sami Montgomery, Theresa McDermott and Kim Hsu, sophomores Jessica Mote and Inga Snyder and freshman Tiffany Fisher rounded out the team. Fisher pulled her weight surprising everyone with the

second-best stroke average at 78.4 and playing in ten of eleven events. With the year broken into a fall and spring season, the Hoosiers played the toughest schedule in recent years, beginning with the Lafayette Northern Invitational and the llama Fall Preview. The Lafayette Northern Invitational. held at the Kamper Golf Course, Purdue's new home course and site of the 1999 Big Ten Championship, brought all the Big Ten teams together as a preview of the contest in the spring. The team battled strong winds and a challenging course layout to finish second behind the eventual Big Ten champions, Ohio State. After the Lafayette Northern Invitational, the Hoosiers flew west — their destination, Tulsa, Okla., site of the 1999 NCAA Championships. The Oklahoma Fall Preview pitted IU against some of the toughest competition in the nation, including the No. 1 Duke University Blue Devils. "The preview for nationals will be a big, exciting factor on how we'll compare with the other teams because all the top team will be there," Seger said. "This will be a big advantage this year to play in it because we'll get to see all the other teams." Coming into the important event with high expectations, IU left disappointed by its less than stellar performance and 13th place finish. And at the close of the fall season the MasterCard Collegiate Golf Ranking placed the Hoosiers 15th in the nation, with Carney slipping into the No. 9 spot. After four months of practice, IU entered the spring season with its confidence soaring in an effort to prove the team could play with the best. The first four events led to a second place finish at the Top Flite/Peggy Kirk Bell Invitational, a sixth place finish at the Liz Murphy Invitational, and a pair of victories at the Indiana Invitational and at the Iowa Invitational. But the team's strong season performance, could not help it accomplish its two most important goals. In post-season competition, the IU finished second to rival Ohio State at the Big Ten Championship and 12th at the NCAA East Regional Tournament, too far back in the field to qualify for nationals. Montgomery echoed the team's thoughts at the end of the rollarcoaster season. "You can never underestimate any team in golf just because golf is unpredictable." Montgomery said.

After waiting for what seemed like an eternity, the front door opened to let in two men. A cheer went up as they entered with the documents everyone present wanted to see. The crowd parted to let Taha-Cimino-Harmon-Hitchcock campaign managers Mike Wiemuth and Brian Hall pass through to the back. That was where executive candidates Khaled Taha, Katie Cimino, Brian Harmon and Kathrin Hitchcock were. They would be the first to see what the papers said. They were all gathered in the TCHH "war room" to hear the results of the 1999 ILI Student Association election. The Beginning TCHH came together slowly, starting during the fall semester. Taha headed up third-place ticket Taha-Doty-Brodnax-Jenkins in 1998's elections, which were marred by allegations of voter fraud against candidates from both TDBJ and eventual winners OrenstenPreamble-Abrams-Schroeder. He spent the summer unsure about running again. He soon found that he would not want for support if he did choose to give it another go. "During the course of the year, I had a number of people come up to me and say, 'What happened last year? You got a raw deal,' "Taha says. "I had a lot of people come to me and say that 'as it stands, you show that you really do give a rat's ass about what goes on on this campus.' " Taha treated the loss differently from most past presidential hopefuls who had lost their bids for office. While most runners-up had left IUSA, he chose to stay because he felt he still had something to contribute. "My main motivation was: One, I still believe in the system," Taha said. "I believed in the system then, and I still believe in the system now. I think that there's a lot of good that can be done. Number two was that there were a lot of people that came out and supported me the first time, and you can't turn your back on that. Loyalty is too much." Once he had decided to run for president again, Taha had to form a group of running mates. He made it clear that this included not just the executives, but all of the congressional candidates as well. Cimino, a junior, was the first to come aboard as a candidate for vice president for congress. She had joined forces with senior Brian Hall, who, as a sort of campaign manager, was looking to attach her to a ticket. "Someone told me in the early fall that Khaled Taha may end up to be my best friend,- Cimino said. "Khaled and I met officially in a meeting set up by a mutual friend, and TC?? was horn. Once we added Brian Harmon and Kathrin Hitchcock, I knew that I was running with the best ticket and had no regrets." Sophomores Harmon and Hitchcock came aboard later in the semester, filling the TCHH executive slate as candidates for vice president for administration and treasurer, respectively. Once TCHH was set up, it needed a platform. Each of the candidates had certain ideas they felt should be implemented. In addition, the congressional candidates were asked at all-candidate meetings to write down three things they wanted IUSA to accomplish. "This was done to make sure we got a good idea about the kinds of concerns we were floating around out there," Taha said. "We could have easily made the entire platform based on what the execs wanted, but we figured the best way to be representative of the student body was to make sure we diversified the ideas we presented in our platform." 11

Chalking palys an important role in the IUSA campaigns. The night of Sunday, March 21 marked the first time candidates could officially begin chalking the sidewalks of IU's campus. The staff of TCHH started at 10 pm. Sunday night and chalked until 2 a.m.

The executives ranked the merit, feasibility and efficiency of implementing the ideas. Taha said they wanted simple, attainable goals. Harmon then came up with the acronym SHAPE (Solutions, Health and Safety, Academics, Programming and Environment) to represent their ideas. IUSA tickets past and present had often offered impractical platforms. TCHH wanted to avoid promising something it couldn't deliver, so the candidates did their homework, so to speak. "We took all the parts and started calling people, sitting down and talking to administrators, making sure we could cover our bases when it came time to go to bat for our ideas," Taha said. "We knew people would challenge our ideas, so we had to make sure they were airtight." Chalking Wars On the last Sunday of spring break, Taha was on his hands and knees in the middle of campus, his arms covered with dust. Still, he was enjoying himself immensely. He was, after all, chalking. I truly do like chalking," Taha said. "It is a lot of fun. When you're out here getting your name out here, and no one else is, that's even more of a driving force." Chalking was a standard activity for most IUSA election campaigns. Candidates and campaign staff take to the campus sidewalks and draw

words and phrases to advertise their names and platforms. "You want to go out there and tell people, 'This is what TCHH is all about.' And you can tell people what TCHH is all about, but what really needs to happen is you need to feel what TCHH is all about," Tuba said. "We've got enough chalk to cover this entire campus and then some, so let's make sure that we use it. TCHH all over the campus, and nothing but." Before they began, Hall addressed the candidates with a pep talk that featured the rules of chalking. "If you can't walk on it, don't chalk on it. If it's not concrete, don't chalk on it. And if rain can't get there, you can't chalk on that either." Hall told the candidates they should be prepared to work hard, saying on some nights "you will go to bed at 2 a.m. and wake up at 5 a.m." He then sent them out with some final words of instruction. "You will see the competition out there," Hall said. "The best thing to do, what we will do, is just completely ignore them. You're not going to talk them into voting for you, I promise. On the sidewalk between Woodburn Hall and the Indiana Memorial Union parking lot, members of TCHH and members of the ticket Willke-LaBuda-Hart-Brunelle ended up jockeying for position. While TCHH candidates were filling up sections of concrete, some members

of WLHB went up the sidewalk writing their ticket's letters in small print in the corners of the square blocks of concrete. "Chalking can get competitive, because we all want to get out to the most students that we can," said WLHB campaign manager Kristina Strinka, a senior. "We're supposed to be representing students, so we want to get our name out to students and let them know that were out there." Although chalking and hanging up fliers can be seen as a competition between tickets, members of TCHH said working with a large group while covering the campus helped build a sense of camaraderie. "It's more of a bonding experience for your candidates, to get them there and get them to know each other," Hall said. "That way, they're happy going door to door, they're happy tabling at the (Union) Commons. When you see other tickets get some (spaces), you'd like to have your name on there, but I really don't think it's that big of a problem." The Endorsements Strike Back In IUSA campaigns, the support of student groups could increase a ticket's chances of winning. "If (student groups) know from the beginning that we're going to be taking the time to go speak with them ... and find out what they feel they need from IUSA, then they're going to know from the beginning that we've built an alliance," Harmon said. "When we don't go to a student group, it's almost like a slap in the face." Talking to groups was also an effective way to communicate a ticket's ideas and allowed groups to meet the candidates. "It's the only way we can actually tell them, 'Hey, look, we've done the work behind our platform' and show them that we are the best candidates," Hitchcock said. "If you just give them a platform without talking to them, you have no credibility with them. If you go down and sit and talk with them, and they see how animated you are, (and) they see how dedicated you are to IUSA, it completely changes their outlook on your platform and their outlook on IUSA." While Harmon and Hitchcock were presenting TCHH's ideas to the Indiana Public Interest Research Group, Taha was scheduled to meet the College Republicans. Although the College Republicans would eventually endorse TCHH, miscommunication about the location prevented them from meeting. Taha went back to TCHH headquarters without seeing the College

Republicans and was immediately asked about the meeting. Candidates: -Khaled, how did it go with the CRs?" Taha (giving a thumbs up): "Great. Can I see (the executives) in the hack for a second'?" Keeping potentially bad news from the candidates was essential to maintaining a positive attitude, Taha said. "You're always going to have unexpected events. But morale is what wins the election." The End The door closed, and the execs asked excitedly about the results of the student voting. Wiemuth, the campaign manager, did not sugar-coat it for them. "It's bad," he said as he unfolded the paper and passed copies of the results around. TCHH had qualified for a run-off election, finishing second with 28 percent of the vote to What the Students Want, which had 38 percent. Although the executive slate lived to fight another day, the results were bittersweet. All but 17 of the 58 TCHH congressional candidates had lost. The ticket lived to fight another day, but that battle was hurt by allegations that Taha offered to help student groups get funding if elected, allegations that Taha denied. "That was such a morale-killer, because your opposition will take it and run with it," Taha said. "I really thought we could pull the second one off, if we pooled our resources. (But) I can look hack on it 20 years from now, and know that I did the best job that I could." Although disappointed with the results, Taha was proud of the campaign his ticket ran. He said his ticket's efforts weren't a waste of energy. "(But) I regret the student body has been robbed of so many genuinely caring individuals who would have done a phenomenal job had they been elected... Above: Two members of the TCHH ticket discuss the results of the election in the "war room." TCHH gained 28 percent of the vote to finish second behind What the Students Want.

Protests by Kate Zangrilli As NATO executed its 25th night of attacks in Belgrade April 16, about 130 Bloomington residents marched through Indiana wind and rain to protest the bombings. Carrying signs condemning the strikes and wearing neon hull's-eye badges, they marched to the Monroe County Courthouse, voicing dissent against violent NATO intervention in the Kosovo conflict. Within hours of the protest, NATO jets ignited several Belgrade targets. The alliance said the bombings would not stop until Yugoslav President Slobodan Milosevic halted the ethnic cleansing of Albanians in the region. Speakers at the courthouse, clustered under the stone Vietnam war memorial, carried signs that read, "We are all targets." For information sciences professor Bob Travica, Yugoslavia meant more than a headline. "My family (living there) are all targets," he said. He

"Everyone thinks that because we started this war, we must finish it ...

(But) we can pull out; we can end it. It is possible to find a humanitarian solution to this situation."

Corey Wade spoke of his mother, who would rather die than live in the terror she experiences daily. He spoke of his three young cousins, crammed into a sunless shelter, who asked him to "say hello to Bobby Knight," sending their love to "that super country where the Barbie doll was born.- Travica said they asked him why "Uncle Clinton" was dropping bombs on them? "Doesn't he know we can't play outdoors?" Travica's young cousin asked. "This is what this war is about," Travica said of flattened cities and terrorized civilians. He warned that Americans would themselves "become targets" if the United States did not halt the aggression. Freshman Tomislav Milosavljevich, whose mother emigrated from Kosovo, said mainstream media cropped and contorted the war. He asked why no world power had intervened in the 1992 massacre of 300,000 Serbs living in Kosovo. "The Serbian people have been demonized in the press," Milosavljevich said. "In 1996, there were thousands of protests against Milosevic. People were trying to get him out of power." After numerous strikes, Yugoslays had little spirit left to resist him Milosavljevich added. One day after Washington Post columnist Richard Cohen defined Kosovo as the historical response to the

NATO Involvement Holocaust, Bloomington's protesters redefined it as a resurgence of Vietnam-era foreign policy. While Cohen said NATO intervened "as a kind of 'never again' cry from most of NATO's leaders," Bloomington's peace advocates said this intervention was rooted in the same economic incentives as those that swayed the United States' intervention some 30 years before. Senior Corey Wade, editor of griot, placed the war in an international context of human rights abuse. "As human beings ... we must move past this dualistic nation," Wade said. He cautioned against a trajectory of violence that would cumulate in "the genocide of humanity." "Everyone thinks that because we started this war, we must finish it ... (But) we can pull out; we can end it. It is possible to find a humanitarian solution to this situation," Wade said. Sarah O'Keeffe, a graduate student who recently returned from Yugoslavia, read an open letter to the students of Bloomington from a young man in Belgrade. O'Keeffe's correspondent wrote of the drastic change wreaked by NATO explosives—the bodies shelters would not hold, the "dead ... blind ... homeless" people he discerned each morning when the smoke cleared. "The people of Belgrade stand on bridges scheduled for destruction," he wrote. Fine arts professor Michelle Facos read a letter from an elderly man in Yugoslavia's second-largest city, Novi Sad. Serbian media reported April 18 that bombs hit a major oil refinery there. The elderly man said he had twice been a refugee, once from the Nazis and then from the bombs. Speakers anchored their advocacy for the global concerns of human rights and peace on local pillars of education and action. The groups disseminated leaflets championing alternative media. community discussion and petitioning congressional representatives to halt support for the bombings. According to group literature, the Anti-War Community Workgroup, composed of about 70 members of the IU and Bloomington communities, formed April 9 to promote "a peaceful resolution of the conflict in Kosovo." Chris Racxkowski, a member and graduate student, said the platform is "broad-based and inclusive," centered upon the premise that "bombing for peace is patently idiotic."in

Share LECH WALESA by Rachel Kipp Former Polish president and Nobel Peace Prize winner Lech Walesa shared his experiences in Poland's struggle for independence, his opinions on issues facing the country and the world today and his hopes for the future with IU students and staff in a speech Oct. 5 at the Musical Arts Center. The speech, sponsored by Union Board and the Office of the Bloomington Chancellor, attracted a sellout crowd. Walesa's native Polish was translated by an interpreter. One of the main topics addressed in Walesa's speech was a proposal to include Poland, the Czech Republic and Hungary in the North Atlantic Treaty Organization. Walesa said this expansion should be viewed as a positive change because it will strengthen NATO's resources and reduce the chances for the creation of an opposing bloc. "A NATO expansion expands our security zone - the worst danger lies in a no-mans land because a no-mans land implies temptation for invasion," Walesa said. Walesa described his experiences as the leader of the Solidarity movement, which fought and won independence for Poland from the former USSR in the late 1980s. "I was the leader of the Solidarity movement when most of you were only learning to speak," he said. "In the 1980s, I led the official struggle for independence in Poland, and without the support of the U.S., the support of your parents, we couldn't have achieved this victory." He said the situation in the world today could be seen as worse than the way things were then. "In my time, there were only two nuclear battles, between the U.S. and Russia. Today there are many," he said. "In my time, there were only two opposing camps, and because they were opposing they somehow disciplined each other. Today the question is what will new countries be based on and where will the discipline come from?" The solution to this problem lies in educating the consciences of men, Walesa said. hope in the 21st century we are going to work hard on the extension of the human conscience, on bringing up and educating men who are good people and strong people," he said. Learning about modern world events was freshman Marina Comas' reason for attending the speech. "We spend so much time practicing and studying thatwe forget what's going on out there - we're isolated," she said. "It's important for us as people to know what's happening."

BILL GATES by Andy Gamma/ and Shawn Chen Microsoft CEO and Chairman Bill Gates predicted a future where everyone would take the Internet for granted and use it for purposes as diverse as business, education, entertainment and communication. The speech, sponsored by the Indiana Lectures series, drew a crowd of about 6,000 to Assembly Hall on Oct. 12. Before Gates had even arrived on campus, about seven students gathered in front of Assembly Hall to protest Microsoft Corp.'s business practices. Gates took the stage in a bright red IU sweatshirt and remarked that all the red in Assembly Hall took him back to his days at Harvard. He told the audience that a "vision" he had at Harvard turned into the mission of Microsoft: "a computer on every desk and in every home." "We thought the chip would really change fundamentally what computing was all about ... Into something that was a tool

The Web will absolutely be at the center of that," he said. Gates said he believed universities and educational institutions would be largely responsible for keeping the net a cutting-edge tool. Students and faculty who attended the lecture were excited to hear from such an influential and successful man as Gates. "It was free and interesting. He's the star of geekdom and it's surprising to see how someone like him became so wealthy by doing some of the same things the rest of us do," Crane employee Jack Fulton said.

RICHARD LUGAR

by Tiffany Lynch

With the end of the Cold War in 1989, Americans had become comfortable thinking that a threat of a nuclear weapons attack was over, but this assumption was wrong, U.S. Sen. Richard Lugar, R-Ind., told IL: students gathered in the Indiana Memorial Union. "The terrifying reality is that the threat of chemical and biological weapons is with us right now and the use of nuclear weapons in the near future is no longer farfetched," he said. Lugar spoke about the distribution of weapons of mass destruction to more than 200 students, staff and local residents on Feb. 18 in the Frangipani Room of the IMU. Lugar said the collapse of the Soviet Union left behind a "vast supermarket of deadly weapons," and with Russia's poor economy and low troop morale, the world — especially America — needed to worry about the threat of Russia selling its weapons of mass destruction. "Because desperate people do desperate things, we should pay attention to any region where hunger and homelessness are prevalent," he said. "But when desperate people have access to weapons of mass destruction, we must do more than pay attention. We must approach the problem with the same focus and seriousness of purpose with which we approached the Cold War." Lugar said the enemies were no longer one large superpower, but rather "rogue states," and terrorist groups, which have the resources to acquire such weapons. He said once these coalitions receive the weapons, they could open America up to "nuclear blackmail." Those countries or terrorists could use the threat of a nuclear attack to keep American intervention at bay. Senior Julia Schlemmer, a SPEA major and a former intern for Lugar, said she had heard him speak on the same topic before, and she agreed with his fear of future weapons proliferation. "I think it's an issue that most people don't even consider, but it's really important," she said. "That's our enemy now." Lugar said an effort to end the problem has begun. In 1991 Lugar and former US. Sen. Sam Nunn, D-Ga., created a program for the dismantlement and security of the old Soviet nuclear arsenal. But there was still more to be done, Lugar said. Senior Katherine Goodman said she enjoyed Lugar's speech and said she thought he did a good job explaining the problem of weapon's proliferation to the crowd. "Obviously he's been doing this for a while, but he definitely knows what he wants to get accomplished and he knows how to get his point across," she said. "He definitely cares about this issue and that's really good."

BENJAMIN JACOBS by Jeff Shireman

Benjamin Jacobs was one of thousands of Jews marked for death at Auschwitz. He was saved, in part, by bad teeth. Jacobs barely avoided death in the concentration camp by performing dental services to guards and fellow prisoners. In the emotionally-charged Whittenberger Auditorium on April 13, Jacobs spoke about his and the Jews' experiences during the Holocaust. Before a standing-room-only crowd of almost 500 students and faculty. Jacobs talked about the "miracle" of surviving the tragedy that claimed the lives of 6 million European Jews during World War II on Holocaust

"He was very powerful. He makes you think about your own life and priorities. It's incredible how he survived something like that and still has this outlook on life." Lisa Vojta on Benjamin Jacobs Remembrance Day. "To survive, one had to be more than young, more than strong and more than capable. To survive, one had to be lucky," he said. Jacobs talked primarily about his personal experiences in forced labor and concentration camps in Nazi Germany. The 79-year-old Holocaust survivor spoke of how, as a Jew, he was forced to live in a segregated Jewish ghetto in his birthplace of Dobra, Poland. He described his experiences in detail in his book, The Dentist of Auschwitz: A Memoir. "Mine is just one story of which there are so many," Jacobs said. "Each story is different, and each one is tragic." Jacobs said he was "deputizing" the audience to speak to future generations about how hate, intolerance and indifference could breed a tragedy such as this one. Freshman Erin Hicks said Jacobs' presentation was very emotional. "It was moving; it moved me to tears," Hicks said. "It was very unique in that you can't get this perspective from a history book, only from a person who lived through it." Hicks was struck by the strength Jacobs exuded. "He was so surprisingly human in a way that I didn't expect," she said. "You would expect someone who had been through all that to he hitter, jaded and defeated, but he was the opposite of all that." Graduate student Lisa Vojta also said she took something away from the speech. "He was very powerful," Vojta said. "He makes you think about your own life and priorities. It's incredible how he survived something like that and still has this outlook on life." El

Scandal

Tarnishes by Staci Davidson It all started because of another woman. Many women had come in and out of President Bill Clinton's life, but Paula Jones stayed around longer than he expected. While Clinton wanted her to move out of the spotlight, the trouble she created did not compare to the problems Monica Lewinsky brought to his life. Events in the world often affected life on campus, and with political events, opinions could become strong and diverse. This was the case Feb. 11 when the IU College Democrats and the IU College Republicans faced off in a mock Senate trial to determine whether Clinton should be convicted for perjury and/or obstruction of justice. The news of scandal and impeachment had been in the media for the past year and a half, and the students on campus had definite opinions about Clinton and his actions. The results of the mock trial would mirror the actual

I did not have sexual relations with that woman, Miss Lewinsky. I never told anybody to lie, not a single time. Never. These allegations are false." Bill Clinton events in the Senate. The IU College Republicans acted as the House Judicial Committee managers while the IU College Democrats took on the role of the White House Council. After each side presented 30 minutes of arguments to the "Senate" of about 50 students, law professor Dan Conkle, who served as the Chief Justice, asked for the vote. With a two-thirds vote needed to convict, the mock senators acquitted Clinton with a vote of 23-23 on Article 1 of perjury and 26-19 on Article 2 of obstruction of justice. This episode in Clinton's scandal-filled presidency, which led to the campus mock trial, began in early 1996 when Jones, a woman who knew Clinton when he was Governor of Arkansas, sued him for sexual harassment. To support her case, her attorneys tried to find evidence Clinton had affairs with other women. Around this same time, Independent Counsel Kenneth Starr was investigating other scandals surrounding the Clintons, including the possible illegal real estate deals of WhiteWater, alleged travel office abuses, and the possible improper use of FBI files to

Presidency

hurt various Republicans. He was about to add one more scandal to his list of inquiries. Since late 1996, Lewinsky confided in her friend Linda Tripp about the special relationship she had with the president. Tripp had worked in various government offices since the Bush administration and formed a close friendship with Lewinsky while she was an intern. Lewinsky told Tripp about many meetings she had with Clinton, and the romantic, even sexual, relationship that developed between them. As Lewinsky's stories became more frequent and detailed, Tripp began to record the conversations. She claimed to do this to protect herself from the prosecutors' investigation. Soon after Lewinsky received the subpoena, Tripp gave the taped conversations to Starr, and the next day she was wired by the FBI to further record Lewinsky. By then, media coverage had grown to an extreme, uncovering facts and constantly filling newspapers and broadcast programs with the latest update of the story. "The media saturated the issue so much that the public wanted to get rid of the situation instead of doing justice," said junior Shawn Peterson, president of the IU College Republicans. "It is the job of the media to get people the information," said junior Erick Wattudogu, president of the IU College Democrats. "I hope the media start to talk about the 'non-sexy' issues. The media needs to do a better job at covering issues that make a difference to America." Meanwhile, Lewinsky's lawyer drafted an affidavit so she would not have to give the deposition. She signed this document which said she did not have a sexual relationship with the president, although she later told people some of the statements were false. On Jan. 17, 1998, Clinton gave a deposition in the Paula Jones case. He denied having "sexual relations" with Lewinsky, as defined by the lawyers. The definition stated "a person engages in 'sexual relations' when the person knowingly engages in or causes...contact with the genitalia, anus, groin, breast,

inner thigh, or buttocks of any person with an intent to arouse or gratify the sexual desire of any person..." In late January, Clinton gave his first public statement about the Lewinsky matter. "I did not have sexual relations with that woman, Miss Lewinsky," he said. "I never told anybody to lie, not a single time. Never. These allegations are false." In mid-July Starr granted Lewinsky immunity in turn for becoming his witness. She then turned over the infamous blue dress, rumored to have a semen stain from Clinton on it. The DNA tests performed on the dress gave 7 trillion-to-1 odds that the semen belonged to Clinton. On Aug.17, Clinton testified in front of Starr's prosecutors and a grand jury, where he said he had no sexual relations with Lewinsky based on its definition. But soon after this testimony he made another public statement where he said his relationship with Lewinsky was "wrong." Lewinsky testified before the grand jury on Aug. 20. She spoke of the numerous sexual encounters between Clinton and herself, describing them in detail. "The president's description of no-hands sex suggests some kind of service contract - that all I did was to perform oral sex on him and that's all this relationship was," she said. In September Starr released his report on the investigation, claiming the president committed perjury in the civil case against Jones and committed obstruction of justice by making people lie when giving their depositions. This prompted a huge public backlash against Starr and his team of prosecutors. Although this had been in the news for months, the public and media criticized Starr for seeking out the explicit details of a couple's sex life. Some people were even more upset with the intensity of Starr's research, since it no longer related to his original investigation. "Ken Starr was an overzealous person out to get the president," Wattudogu said. "He had a big checkbook and was spending our money." Peterson thought differently about Starr. "Ken Starr did his job the best he could under the circumstances," Peterson said. "He was mandated by Congress, but became the political scapegoat of both parties."

However, many Republicans became more appalled by Clinton's actions and how inappropriate they were for a president. Others believed Clinton should have been removed from office for his lies, claiming he tarnished his presidency by his improper deeds.. "When the report was submitted to Congress he (Clinton) should have resigned," Peterson said. "Whether it was all true remains to be seen, but he put the country through a lot." The House of Representatives voted to impeach Clinton Dec. 19. It accused him of perjury and obstruction of justice, leading to a Senate trial. This happened amid reports that Henry Hyde, chairman of the House Judiciary Committee, had an extra-marital affair, as did Republican Representative Bob Livingston, who resigned before he became House Speaker. Livingston said he resigned to set an example for Clinton. For five weeks the Senate held the trial, knowing it would need a two-thirds vote to convict the president. All the while, leaders debated whether to just censure Clinton. Many believed censure would be punishment enough and still avoid a long trial, but the parties could not agree on censure terms. As the public grew tired of the scandal, and it became clear that a two-thirds majority would not be reached, the Senate decided to vote. On Feb. 12 the Senate fully acquitted the president of the charges, and the trial ended. Clinton publicly said he was "profoundly sorry" for his actions and "the great burden they have imposed on the Congress and on the American people." Although he held record-high public approval ratings during the whole ordeal, polls showed the country trusted him less. "He could have handled it better by not doing it at all," Wattudogu said. "He did his job as president and did a good job at separating his duties as president and a personal issue." Political science professor Edward Carmines believed something positive may even have come out of this drawn-out ordeal. "I think we will be back to normal pretty quickly," he said. "Republicans and Democrats feel the need to achieve something and want to produce results. They may produce policy."

Students Remember by Rachel Kipp As feelings of shock and anger reverberated across the country in the aftermath of the April 20 shootings at Columbine High School in Littleton, Colo., a group of education students banded together to make some sense of the tragedy. Members of the E339 Methods of Teaching Language Arts class in the School of Education decided to take action. In the afternoon April 30, the class held a tree-planting ceremony at the circle drive of the School of Education. The ceremony was organized to commemorate those who died in Littleton and to allow IU students to express their feelings about the situation. Junior Kelly Jaffke said a class discussion spurred the decision to hold the tree-planting ceremony. "The day after it happened we were talking about how it had touched us and what we as pre-service

Kelly Jaffke teachers could do about it," Jaffke said. Organizing the ceremony fit in with the lessons the class had been learning in the spring semester, said associate professor Kathy Pomeroy, who used to teach in the county where the shootings occurred. "I've been trying to prepare them to deal with kids in terms of social action," Pomeroy said. "I suggested they take action about their feelings and they ran with the idea."

Architect's Office, said she was very supportive of the tree planting. "It was a great idea," Williams said. "It's something we needed to make happen even though it was on short notice." Students organized and raised the $300 needed to plant the tree in only one week. Jaffke said each member of the class collected as much money as possible from friends and others on campus. "It shows we are dedicated to what we do," Jaffke said. "It takes a lot of teamwork to pull this through." Williams said she was impressed the students came up with the required amount of money in such a short time. "It's amazing," Williams said. "I told them if they got close with the money I would trust them to get it done later on, but they got it all done. It's amazing how wellorganized they are." Pomeroy said the students planted a dogwood tree because the tree will flower every year at the time of the shooting. "They have put a lot of thought into this project," Pomeroy said. Balloons with the name and picture of each person who lost his or her life in the shooting were also released, And attendees were encouraged to share their feelings during a reflection period, Jaffke said. "Even though this happened in another part of the country, it affects everybody," Jaffke said.El

In Honor by Kevin Stuart "My hope is that other children don't have to die from leukemia and don't have to go through the pain and torture Ryan did," said Oneita Hines of Knoxville, Tenn., after her grandson Ryan died from leukemia Sept. 21 at the age of 13. Four days later, Hines' sentiments echoed through the candles of thousands of others who had traveled to Washington D.C., for "The March: Coming Together to Conquer Cancer." The event, which consisted of a Friday night candlelight vigil at the Lincoln Memorial and a rally Saturday afternoon at the National Mall, brought an estimated 150,000 to the nation's capital. "The March" was organized to unite cancer organizations and politicians to raise awareness for the increased need in government spending for research and development. Retired Gen. H. Norman Schwarzkopf embodied this concept in his speech during the vigil. "Tomorrow we march ... we are going to send a message to

"People need to realize that if you look to your left and look to your

right, one of you will get cancer." Cindy Wedding our government that says we matter," Schwarzkopf said. ''I'his government is by the people, and the people are demanding that we commit ourselves to the ending of this terrible thing. No more cancer!" As cancer survivors and patients discussed their fight against the illness, two medium-size movie screens displayed the Honor Roll, a list of names of those who had lost their battle. Cindy Wedding, who traveled from San Antonio, was diagnosed with terminal colon cancer three years before. At the vigil, she stood silently with her husband, James, listening to stories of those who had battled cancer. But Wedding was winning her battle with cancer and took a proactive role toward finding a cure. She met with lawmakers both days of "The March." "People need to realize that if you look to your left and look to your right, one of you will get cancer. One out of three Americans will get cancer," Wedding said. Speakers at the vigil and the rally included politicians, businessmen and celebrities — many of whom had been personally affected or had family affected by cancer during their lives. These speakers included the Rev. Jesse Jackson, Vice President Al Gore, model Cindy Crawford, retired Senator Bob

Dole and figure skater Scott Hamilton. By the time the rally began at noon Saturday, the National Mall was filled with informational booths, educational displays and people from different states who had traveled to Washington for the big event. One of the main displays was the National Childhood Cancer Awareness Quilt, which contained quilt panels from around the country in remembrance of children battling cancer or who had passed away. Roxie Glaze, office manager for the economics department of the Kelley School of Business, served as Indiana's state coordinator for the cancer quilt. She arrived in Washington two days before the event with her 7-year-old daughter, Elizabeth. Glaze became involved with the battle against cancer when her daughter was diagnosed with Wilms tumor, a cancerous tumor in the kidney. Although Elizabeth had been in remission for three years, Glaze still actively participated in the cause in her home state. Indiana contributed two quilts to the display, each consisting of 50 patches. "We were really proud of the quilt," Glaze said. "On the other hand, 200 children are diagnosed annually in Indiana alone, and it is such a small representation." Contributions for the quilt resulted from word-of-mouth, newspaper articles and the time Glaze spent at Riley Hospital for Children in Indianapolis. Sometimes the children created the patches, and other times their parents made them. Regardless of how simple or elaborate the patch, most viewed them as beautiful. And while most people enjoyed "The March," others felt the atmosphere was too lighthearted. "We're talking about an extremely serious subject here," Glaze said. "It's not like they're getting a disease and treatment — they're suffering. I don't think that was reflected in the march." But others, such as 25-year-old Shandy Webb of Savannah, Ga., felt the festival-like atmosphere was appropriate for an event that honored not only those who had died, but also celebrated those who had survived or were fighting and winning. "We've met a lot of neat people from all over," said Webb, who suffered from vaginal cancer. "People aren't scared to come up and say, 'Hey, I've got cancer or I know someone who has had cancer.' It's just a big family."

Hundreds of IU students and Bloomington residents observed the NAMES Project/AIDS Memorial Quilt on display in Alumni Hall of the Indiana Memorial Union Feb. 14-16. The quilt display, entitled "Celebrating Life by Embracing Grief," kicked off AIDS Awareness Week, serving as both a memorial to the victims of AIDS and a reminder to others to be grateful for their blessings. The NAMES Project Foundation, based in San Francisco, formed the quilt in 1987 and has displayed it throughout the country. It grew out of the stigma associated with the disease, which victimizes across borders of age, race, gender and sexuality. Union Board formed a host committee and raised $30,000 to bring the quilt to Bloomington. $12,000 dollars was required for the quilt display. The remaining money was earmarked for three local AIDS

"It is a memorial to those infected and affected," said Dan Whisler, the Quilt display coordinator representative for the NAMES Project Foundation. "It puts a name and a face on the statistics. Each square was three feet by six feet, about the size of an average burial plot. Stitched animals, t-shirts and pictures animated and personalized the squares, each of which represented a victim of AIDS. The quilt consisted of 42,000 panels and represented 22,000 victims, only 21 percent of all U.S. AIDS victims. The exhibit included 400 panels. Whisler also said the quilt was just as important as when it was formed in the mid-1980s, because it

Goodbye informed people about the disease and challenged incorrect stereotypes about those infected with HIV or AIDS. He said the quilt held special importance in Bloomington because college students often participated in more high-risk activities that could cause AIDS. "I think it's good for young people to see and experience,- Whisler said. Those in attendance resembled somber spectators in a cloth graveyard. Silence filled Alumni Hall except for the creaking floorboards as each observer swayed sentimentally between the symbolic squares. Some hugged, some cried, some knelt for a closer observation and some stood as motionless as did those to whom the cloth memorials were dedicated. "On a personal level, I was very moved by the exhibit," Bloomington mayor John Fernandez said. "We all know the statistics, but the AIDS quilt connects names of real people to the statistics." Kathy Loser, a librarian at Bloomington North High School, expressed her amazement at the work done in dedication of the victims of AIDS and at the organization of the quilt's display. "It's pretty overwhelming, pretty emotional," she said. IU students indicated similar sentiments. Part-time student Shawn Bums said curiosity brought him to see the quilt for the first time. He described the experience as sobering. continued

Burns said the size of the display, which covered the floor of two rooms and included squares draped from the ceiling, immediately shocked him. He also complimented the creativity and time involved in creating the quilt and said the pictures and other personal items created a connection with the person. "You find out the person's interests and the interests of those close to them," Burns said. Freshman Justin Wooden saw the quilt in December 1992, when it was in Washington D.C. "It reminds me that people actually care," Wooden said. "They (the AIDS victims) will be remembered." Others in attendance expressed displeasure that such compassion is not always apparent in society. Bloomington resident Sharon Haden went to the closing ceremony immediately following the funeral of her son, who died of AIDS. She expressed her disappointment that not everyone showed the same compassion for the victims of AIDS. "There are rude people," she said. "That's hard to listen to when you have someone dying from it." A quilt dedicated to John Mangano exhibited similar emotions, reading, "Killed By His Country." Freshman Jessica Gettelfinger volunteered to work at the event. "You lose friends sometimes, you lose boyfriends. That's nothing compared to what these people have gone through," she said. "Death is forever. It makes you appreciate your health and everything going for you right now." The quilts bore inscriptions such as "Nothing Is Harder Than Saying Good-By To Someone You Love... Good-By Dear Friend," and "Celebrate Life And The Human Spirit." The event provided those who lost loved ones to AIDS with another chance to say goodbye. The closing ceremony featured the group, Babes Night Out, singing a Janet Jackson song representing the eternal connection between the victims of AIDS that have passed away and those who are still living.

Hate Crimes

Ignite by Jamie Small

Due to incidents on and off the Indiana University campus, hate crimes took the spotlight in 1998. On Oct. 9, University of Wyoming student Matthew Shepard was violently murdered because of his sexual orientation. In Bloomington, residents discovered anti-Semitic and racist literature distributed on their cars and lawns. Consequently, members of the Bloomington community organized "A Rally Against Hate — A Rally for a United, Diverse Bloomington." "Most students are only aware of the problem to the extent that it affects them," sophomore Monte Simonton said. "Unless they see it in their face, they don't even know it exists. They think they're random events." However, hate-related occurrences took place fairly often on campus. In September, vandals

"We are not what we could be, we are certainly not what we should be, but thanks be to the great god of creation that we are better than we were."

Michael Anderson carved swastikas into walls and bulletin hoards at McNutt Quadrangle. In addition, students reported about 30 homophobic incidents in the first three months of school. Shepard's murder inspired both gay and heterosexual students to attend a candlelight vigil Oct. 14. Students came in hopes of demonstrating that hateful attitudes would not be tolerated in Bloomington. "I hope students will take a moment out of their busy lives to consider the enormity of this act and to reflect upon what they can do, each in their own way, to work to create a climate where such a tragic event would never happen again," said Doug Bauder, director of Gay, Lesbian, Bisexual, and Transgender support services. In September, the World Church of the Creator placed hate pamphlets in yards and car windshields. The pamphlet, "FACTS That the Government and the Media Don't Want You to Know," contained a series of articles criticizing Jews, African Americans and immigrants. In response to these events, the Bloomington

Bloomington

Protests United campaign coordinated a rally to combat hate crimes. In addition, members sold $6,000 worth of yard signs that read "Bloomington United: No hate speech, no hate crimes. Not in our yards, not in our town, not anywhere." "Today, we come together to send a clear message: there is no room for that hate, no room for that fear, no room for those lies," said Mira Wasserman of Beth Shalom Congregation. Protesters gathered at the Sample Gates and marched to the courthouse, where Bloomington Mayor John Fernandez, Dean of Students Richard McKaig, Rabbi Wasserman, head football coach Cam Cameron, Reverend Michael Anderson and Bloomington Chancellor and University Vice President Kenneth Gros Louis all spoke. "We are not what we could he, we are certainly not what we should be, but thanks be to the great god of creation that we are better than we were," Anderson said. The rally built much enthusiasm, but some worried that the effects would be short-lived. In order to ensure racial harmony at IU, a new vice chancellor for academic support and diversity was created. Administrators hoped this change would help unify minority organizations, thus making them stronger and more effective. "I speak for myself as someone who's lived in this community for more than 30 years," Gros Louis said. "I speak for my family, and most of all I speak for the faculty and the staff and the students of Indiana University when I say that we reject words and acts of bigotry, words and acts of intimidation and words and acts of intolerance." Shepard's death and hateful events seemed to provide a wake-up call to IU students. They responded with quickness and boldness, but the rallies simply marked the beginning of a potentially long battle. in

Founder of Campus for Choice educates women on the precarious nature of abortion rights enior Natalie Phillips was compelled to act following the 1997 bombing of an abortion clinic in Atlanta. "I was not going to sit on my couch anymore and see these crimes committed," she said. "I was always pro-choice, even when I was younger. My mother is involved with Catholics for Free Choice, so it was always there. Were active and our voices need to be heard." Her anger led her to a Washington D.C. branch of Planned Parenthood, where she volunteered as an escort, The atmosphere outside the clinic was often antagonistic, but she saw a purpose in the job. "You can write letters to the editor and you can write a guest column, but when you walk someone in, they just feel safer," Phillips said. "A lot of times protestors are screaming and when you engage in conversation with someone you're walking in, that just becomes background noise. When they thank me as we walk through the door, that just shows me that my job is worthwhile." Phillips used that experience to create Campus for Choice when she returned to IU after a four-year hiatus at a public access television station in Washington, D.C. As the lead escort for Planned Parenthood, she sought student volunteer escorts and was stunned to find that IU lacked a pro-choice organization on campus. "The main reason that I started the group was that I didn't feel there was a balanced debate on the issue at IU," she said. "The majority of Americans and registered voters are prochoice. There are so many pro-choice individuals who don't realize how close they come to losing that right every day." Phillips founded Campus for Choice in October 1998 and served as its president through the 1998-1999 school year. She planned to stay on next year as the group's activities coordinator. Phillips said the organization's mission was to educate women's voices, since many didn't realize how precarious abortion rights were. Campus for Choice also expanded its focus to educate the public on safe sex and the birth control option. "Educating the pro-choice majority that choice isn't a given is a big thing," she said. "(Next year) we'll focus on the upcoming elections and support pro-choice candidates. We'll also educate people on the use of emergency contraception, which we don't consider abortion, and get the word out about it." Phillips said the group grew quickly and the response was good. "Most of the feedback I've gotten on the group has been positive," she said "We have 250 to 300 members right now, 30 who are highly active. While working with other student groups, like the College Democrats and Women's Student Association, we've had some great experiences. We're also working with community groups like NOW (National

cbrist

Organization of Women). When people see us, they'll stop and say things like, 'We're so glad you're promoting this cause'." Alex Hugelet, grassroots organizer for Planned Parenthood of Central and Southern Indiana, said Phillips did an excellent job promoting Campus for Choice and educating her members and the public. "She's really great at recruiting people and getting word out," Hugelet said. "Letting people know they exist, she's great on that level. She's a really good communicator with members. The information that she gets she forwards it on and gets Campus for Choice's members in the loop about state and federal issues." Hugelet helped Phillips get the ball rolling when it came to starting up Campus for Choice. She worked with other campus groups, and contributed ideas, materials and a constitution. "We've worked on joint projects together like National Condom Week," Hugelet said. "The things she's been able to do have made an impact. For example, the Campus for Choice circulated a petition concerning contraceptive coverage legislation, which would make contraceptives covered under insurance. She gathered over 2,000 signatures and it let people in the community know that IU does have committed pro-choice students." Scott Semester, assistant director of IU's Intern Opportunities Program, met Phillips when they were both IU freshmen in 1991. He served as the staff advisor for Campus for Choice. "I got involved as a matter of interest in the group's mission and as a matter of convenience because Natalie and I are roommates," he said. "She's committed, passionate, dedicated, resourceful and a very strong and very capable leader." He was most impressed with Phillips' ability to keep building the group, even as she started from scratch. "The way that Natalie was able to keep up her motivation was really great," Semester said. "From starting the group from nothing to having excellent events and building the group's membership took a lot of motivation on her part. To keep up her energy and the drive to make the group what it is was, was very impressive to me." In the meantime, Phillips had two years to go on her degree in Social Work and intended to go straight for her Masters. She said she would prefer to work for Planned Parenthood or another non-profit organization dealing with public health in the future. "It's been a real growing experience, and it's made me realize that I'm capable of far more than I ever imagined," she said. "I never thought I'd speak in front of a crowd or be giving a radio interview. What I'm doing is making a difference, and it's a positive learning and growing experience."0

01171bet Vice president of Students for Life fights for the rights of the unborn child lizabeth Lieb's decision to accept a vital role in IU Students ,/for Life wasn't rushed but rooted in a prior commitment and a belief in the pro-life movement. In her early childhood, the Indianapolis native began to develop her own beliefs on the abortion issue based on the support and teachings of her family and church. "I am Catholic, and the church has always taught that all life is precious, and we should work to protect everyone," she said. "The innocent and unborn is included in that." Lieb came to IU in 1997 to obtain her master's degree in public affairs through SPEA. After one year on campus she had taken the role of vice president for the IU Students for Life group and rededicated herself to the pro-life movement. In her early search for information on abortion, Lieb began writing research papers in high school. Her examination of the issue extended into her college years, although it wasn't until she came to IU that Lieb decided to become more actively involved in what she believed in. "I was involved with SFL for two years,- Lieb said. "Though it wasn't until the second year that my involvement grew." After attending a weekend conference co-sponsored by the Collegians Activated to Liberate Life on the IU campus Lieh decided to become the vice president of Students for Life in the fall of 1998. The interaction with others at the gathering helped in making the choice. "I think it is important to have people who are there to support you in your beliefs," Lieb said of her decision to become vice president. "Sometimes its hard to stand up for what you believe in, so that helps to have a group. I wanted to help with that." IU Students for Life began its mission 15 years ago "to educate, challenge and activate the IU community in regard to the protection of innocent human life." The 120-member organization promoted its views though numerous campus demonstrations and proactive events such as counseling and picketing. The group strived to end abortion through "education, action, and an increased awareness of the sanctity of human life." -I think that we can have strength in numbers," Lieb said of SFL. "We can stand together and basically have more resources and people to help get our point across." One member of SFL who took notice of Lieb's dedication to the pro-life movement was Greg Chesmore. Chesmore was acting president of SFL during Lieb's tenure. The two met through the close-knit community of SPEA graduate students prior to Lieb joining the group. "We became friends and then found out we were both interested in the pro-life movement," he said. Since Lieb's involvement in the group, Chesmore was amazed and inspired by her passion and hard work. "Liz's commitment to unborn children and seeing abortion outlawed is very strong and it runs very, very

deep," he said. "When you get involved in the pro-life movement you are not getting involved in a club but a movement to make a serious change and that is how Liz saw it. She is always striving harder." During group demonstrations SFL would garner positive and negative comments, Lieb said. Although there were those who told the group they didn't believe in its actions or ideas, there were also many people who supported SFL. One of the demonstrations SFL held was the annual Cemetery of the Innocence in Dunn Meadow. White crosses were placed in front of the IMU in remembrance to the unborn children who had been aborted. During last year's demonstration, a passerby stopped by the Cemetery and asked Lieb what SFL's stance was on abortions performed to save the lives of mothers. Lieb explained that SFL's position was one of support for medical procedures that would save the life of the mother but not offer direct and intentional harm to the child. "I thought it was great that someone actually took the time to stop and talk to us," Lieb said. "Sometimes people just make a few comments to us or read our brochures and just walk on by. It was great to just he able to talk with someone and maybe help change their mind, even if it was just one person can understand where we are coming from. It keeps me going." Even though SFL acted as a small group on campus, Lieb felt it was very important for herself and each member to try and educate the campus about pro-life issues. The goal of the group to educate others never escaped Lieb's mind. "This is a life-long struggle," she said. The time and effort Lieb put into her work with SFL was no surprise to Chesmore. After seeing her in social settings and working next to her, he clearly saw her intense determination with the movement. "It's rare to find a friend and a human being like Liz who is willing to sacrifice for others and sacrifice so much for children she may never even see or know," Chesmore said. Another SFL member, Ben Tesnar, treasurer for the 1999 academic year, also felt Lieb was an exceptional example for others. "She's very committed to the movement, a role model for everyone," he said. "She will be a hard act to follow, Liz has done a great job getting everyone motivated." Even though Lieb experienced frustration at times in her struggle to end abortion, she understood it would take small steps through lobbying and educating people to meet her goal. "It's a life and death issue. Every time there is an abortion someone dies," she said. "I think just that alone keeps me going to stand up and try and change some of that. We can't put up with that. It's all about education and changing people's hearts. - El

Brawl Leads by Jeff Fleischer At about 9:30 p.m. March 22, the Bloomington Police Department was called about a fight at the Varsity Villas. What police found was an altercation between members of the Indiana University football team and members of Phi Beta Sigma fraternity, an incident that led to injuries, arrests and a University investigation. The incident was the fourth confrontation of the day between members of the two groups, and its aftermath left three students injured. Senior football cornerback Curtis Randle El suffered the most severe injury, needing an emergency laparotomy after being stabbed twice in the abdomen. Senior fraternity member Ramone Demming and sophomore football player Kyle Moffatt were treated and released that night. Five students were charged. Fraternity member Richard Gilliam, a junior, was charged with battery resulting in serious injury for allegedly stabbing Randle El. Police charged junior fraternity member David Donte Wilson with battery and sophomore football player

Football player Damian Gregory, a senior, was charged with residential entry and battery, while Moffatt was charged with battery and false reporting. Police said he originally denied being at the scene, saying his head wound came from tripping over his dog. Once witnesses placed him at the scene, police said he changed his statement. The charges against Moffatt and Gregory were later reduced to disorderly conduct. Bloomington police said the incident stemmed from an afternoon altercation outside the School of Education between Wilson and Browning. Both students had been in the same classroom and had an argument afterward in which Wilson struck Browning, the police report said. Browning told police another fraternity member was present, and the report said Browning threatened to retaliate later. At about 4 p.m., police said Browning and two other members of the football team went to Varsity Villas looking for Wilson. Police said sophomore Richard Gilliam reportedly answered the door holding a baseball bat, and struggled with Browning for it. Browning told police Gilliam hit him in the head with the bat and that he required five staples to seal the wound. Police said other football players arrived at the Villas about an hour and a half later, entered a patio door uninvited, had a verbal confrontation and left. The fourth and most violent altercation took place that night in the parking lot outside 300 Varsity Villas. Police said more than 20 people were involved, some with bats and ski masks. Demming

To Arrests said he arrived at the scene after the fight had started. "About eight feet away from me, two guys started fighting one-on-one, then other people jumped in," he said. Demming said he tried to break up the fight and was hit from behind with a baseball bat on the right side of his head. "I didn't even see it, I just felt it," Demming said. "I have 16 staples in my head. How am I going to pay for it? I don't have a scholarship." Police said Randle El's wound came when he approached Gilliam during the brawl. Gilliam turned the knife over to police, saying he used it in self defense and did not intend to hurt anyone. The day after the fight, Dean of Students Richard McKaig and Coach Cam Cameron held a press conference to announce a University investigation. "We'll be interviewing as many students as we can that may have familiarity with the incident or any other individuals that might come forward," McKaig said. Cameron said the football team would fully cooperate with the investigation. "We'll work closely to make sure they get all the information that they need in this situation," he said. "We'll work together on this thing and we'll get this thing resolved." In early April, Cameron suspended Browning, Gregory and Moffatt from the football team indefinitely. They were not allowed to participate in spring practice or attend spring functions. Then April 21, McKaig announced the results of the University investigation. He said he would file judicial board charges against seven students involved in the fight, including charges of endangering other students, physical abuse, violation of law and acting with violence. These charges were for violations of the Code of Student Rights, Responsibilities and Conduct, but McKaig said federal law prevented him from releasing the students' names. When the school year finished, the story continued. Browning announced May 27 that he would transfer from IU. "I'm doing what's best for me," Browning said. "(I) would love to have finished my career at Indiana. But, on the other hand, I don't think it was ever the right place for me." The investigation by the Monroe County judicial system continued into the summer, when the charged students would appear at court hearings to plead their cases. The suspended players would not be reinstated until after the investigation. "I treat these students just like I treat my sons and I believe in discipline," Cameron said at the March 23 press conference. "We'll deal with this in an appropriate way." El

Physical Plant

Ccairdinating recycling efforts, remodeling buildings, repairing computers and developing classroom technology described just a few tasks in a day's work for employees of IU's Department of Physical Plant. However, the 705 workers kept a low profile on campus. "Our goal would be that you never knew about the physical plant and to be as low profile as possible," said Jim Koryta, senior electrical engineer. "We shouldn't be the first group to pop in your mind. We're a service organization to support the academic buildings. It would be nice if someone could go to IU for four years and everything was just fine." Koryta said the department faced several challenges. It tried to be innovative in solving problems, yet efficient. Many prominent campus buildings came due for major remodeling and repair. Koryta saw a lot of changes and repairs during his 22 years with the department. He remembered receiving two very different responses

"The mission of the IUB Physical Plant is to operate and maintain a high-quality

environment to enhance student learning, faculty teaching and research. We are a service

organization dedicated to the success and satisfaction of IUB faculty, staff, students and campus visitors." IUB Physical Plant Mission Statement from students in instances when the power went out on campus. In the late 1970s employees were working to fix a power outage at the Evermann Apartments when an unhappy student went up to the foreman and threw a stick at him. However, in the mid-1990s when working on a power outage at Read Center, Koryta heard students cheering when the power returned to the Wright, Forest, Read and Teter area. A squirrel getting into the switch gear had caused that power outage. "One decade they're throwing a stick and another they're cheering," Koryta said. Although students might not have realized it, the Physical Plant instituted many changes to campus buildings to make academic work easier. For instance, Koryta said the use of computers caused other changes, such as installing low brightness lights to reduce glare. The physical plant kept up-to-date and tried to follow suggested standards from groups such as the Illuminating Engineering Society. The physical plant handled aspects of the University's maintenance from upkeep and landscaping on the grounds, to providing basic utilities to all buildings — for example, handling custodial care, pest control and recycling. "There's a lot of variety in what we do," said Hank Hewetson, one of the physical plant's associate directors. "We get into so many different things because the University is almost a town within a town. The physical plant gets involved in virtually everything that

University

Services

happens in one way or another. Traditionally, if something is broken, we'll fix it, but we also do long-range planning." Some of that long-range planning included building remodeling. Recent buildings remodeled included Willkie Quadrangle, Lindley Hall, Rawles Hall and Swain Hall East, as well as the conversion of the former University School into the Bess Simon music building. Koryta said the need for computers and air conditioning made necessary renovations and upgrades more pressing. In addition to these changes, buildings often needed fixing due to normal wear and tear. "There was a building boom in the '60s and buildings can last forever, but systems have a 25 to 30 year life. That's already gone way past in many instances." For example, the physical plant had its own department to maintain about 200 elevators on campus. Hewetson said that if someone got stuck, a crew could respond within about half an hour, not only during business hours, but anytime. "The things we do are taken for granted," Hewetson said. "Other places wouldn't work that way." In addition to the effort it put into repairs or setting up a facility so an event could take place, Hewetson also expressed pride in some of the plant's more unique services. The electronics department designed and developed much of the technology in the high-tech classrooms on campus, in addition to repairing that equipment. At the University School, employees did factory-authorized repairs on several types of computers for faculty and students. Koryta also enjoyed some of the more creative aspects of his job, such as trying to conserve energy and save taxpayers' money by using cost-efficient outdoor lighting. These innovations made Koryta's job a challenge because the department continuously changed its operation. Striking a balance between innovation and dependability presented a challenge. Overall, he said the department could not always be a follower, so it experimented with new procedures responsibly. The Physical Plant also highlighted its commitment to "Golden Rule Service" on its Web page. The plant said its mission "is to operate and maintain a high-quality physical environment to enhance student learning, faculty teaching and research. We are a service organization dedicated to the success and satisfaction of IUB faculty, staff, students and campus visitors. "Our goal is [tol treat our customer aswe would like to be treated: with courtesy, professionalism and quality service at competitive prices." in

The physical plant consisted of 705 full-time employees serving 13 million square feet of building space, 2,000 acres of landscaping, lawns, sidewalks, parking lots and streets and more than 180 miles of utility distribution systems. The plant processed over 50,000 services requests during the 1998-99 school year.Photo by Jensen Walker.

In early May, we had come full-circle, our time in Bloomington at an end. We spent eight months chasing our dreams and at some point found ourselves in the process. We were a student body shaped by the circumstances and experiences of the year, but we were individuals also. We listened to the wisdom of our elders when Nobel Peace Prize recipient Lech Walesa and Microsoft CEO Bill Gates spoke to us, hoping to prepare us for the challenges we would face later in our lives. We spoke out against the dangers of alcohol abuse and signed a banner in support of preventing alcohol-related deaths on campus. And we laughed, sang and danced to the music of Bloomington-native John Mellencamp, as he rocked Assembly Hall during Little 500 weekend. Before we knew it, we were cramming for finals and preparing to head our separate ways. The younger generation of Hoosiers would return, once again finding a changed University, beset by the characteristics that make each year unique. But as seniors, we walked in our black robes up the stairs of Memorial Stadium for the last time as students, entrusting the future of our University to the classes to follow. We had finally reached a pivotal moment in our lives, one that our four years of education had prepared us for. We would move on, but our lives had changed distinctly in and out of the limestone buildings of campus. We would never he the same.
