A NEW LOOK FOR AN OLD BOOK

by Bernadette Smith staff writer

Memories of college years are precious and what better way to capme those memories than with a yearbook. In high school, students buy a yearbook every year but in college they seem to not be as popular. Could it be because of the belief they are "senior" focused? Maybe it is because they come out in the fall after graduation. These are the concerns the "Woodcrest" staff has and new ideas are being thought of to make Cabrini's yearbook more appealing to all students.

According to co-editors-in-chief Jen Nespoli and Toni Pirroni the 2000, yearbook will come out in the spring and supplement pages consisting of spring events will be sent out in the fall. "This way students will have their yearbook before the school year ends without missing out on having spring events in their yearbook." Pirroni says.

Woodcrest consists of approximately 180 pages to cover several categories of interest. Stories are done on each sport team, club and academic department. Portraits are done for seniors and faculty members as well as a section dedicated to professor profiles. This year's Woodcrest will also include articles on the millennium, the new construction in Founder's Hall and this generation of Cabrini students. A story will be done on each dormitory including pictures of residents and some commuter pictures will also be taken with a story relating. Woodcrest will be hip and trendy this year to appeal to all students, faculty and staff. "We are really excited about this year's Woodcrest because it will be more appealing and trendy, like a magazine." Nespoli said. Woodcrest costs $25 and is currently on sale outside the Widener Center gather- ing center and the cafeteria in Founder's Hall between 12:30 and 1:30 p.m. until November 5. Only the order needs to be placed now, payment will be due at a later date. Yearbooks are free to all seniors who have their senior portrait taken. This year's casual portraits will be taken on November 1 and 2 and formal portraits will be taken on November 15, 16 and 17. Putting a yearbook together takes much time and dedication and the more staff members there are the faster things can get done. This year's staff consists of four first-year students, one junior, two co-editors in chief and is overseen by Charlie McCormick. 'We are glad to have Charlie as our yearbook adviser because he is very involved with Woodcrest and the staff." Nespoli says. The Woodcrest staff this year is very small and more help is being requested. you are

Currently a photographer is needed and any other help students, faculty or staff can donate would be greatly appreciated.
