C H A-C MIMG: Lady Luck blows a kiss to Darren Tigelaar ('98) as the blackjack winnings start rollingin.

Kalic M u r p h y ( ' 9 7 ) risked il all p l a y i n g blackj a c k at the Las Vegas M i r a g e Friday nighl and raked in Ihe green — or rather, b a b y b l u e .

" W e got to table 21 and stayed the whole night," she said.

Student w i n n e r s traded in their play m o n e y to get very real prizes, r a n g i n g f r o m 15 bottles of Pepsi for twenty thousand to a 13" color television for five hundred t h o u s a n d dollars.

T h e proposal w o u l d have restricted s m o k i n g in all c a m p u s h o u s i n g and b u i l d i n g s with the exception of the area under the glass in the Kletz.

T h e survey and proposal w e r e enacted in res p o n s e to constituent c o m p l a i n t s .

" W e c o n d u c t e d a thorough, representative survey and investigation on w h e t h e r to i n c o r p o r a t e a s m o k i n g b a n , " said J e r e m y Van Ek ( ' 9 6 ) o f Student C o n g r e s s ' C a m p u s l d e a l s Task G r o u p and representative for o f f - c a m p u s h o u s i n g .

T h e t e l e p h o n e survey included a p p r o x i m a t e l y 150 r a n d o m l y polled students.

"I d o n ' t think (the p e r c e n t a g e ) is big e n o u g h .

Most foreign H o p e s t u d e n t s c a n ' t hop a plane to b e with f a m i l y for this uniquely A m e r i c a n holiday, many will still h o p on the U.S.A. bandw a g o n and celebrate the M a y f l o w e r and Plymouth Rock.

International student C o r r i n e Padioleau, w h o hails f r o m F r a n c e , plans to travel h o m e with a h o u s e m a t e for the long T h a n k s g i v i n g w e e k e n d .

"I a m really excited about s p e n d i n g time with an A m e r i c a n f a m i l y , " she said. "It will be g o o d to h a v e c h a n g e in a t m o s p h e r e and spend time with a family and c h i l d r e n . " O t h e r s will eat with host families from around Holland.

" T h e host family s ys t em here at H o p e is excellent b e c a u s e the international s t u d e n t s can e x p e r i e n c e the T h a n k s g i v i n g tradition if they want to," said Spanish professor Ann Marie

B r o w n , faculty advisor of the s t u d y a b r o a d program in Spain.

"I plan on s p e n d i n g the holidays with my host family here in Holland," said O l g a A n a n i n a , w h o has spent the past five years here at H o p e f r o m Russia. "I have a really w o n d e r f u l host family. I spend C h r i s t m a s with t h e m , t o o . " Being a w a y f r o m family d u r i n g the holidays c a n really i n c r e a s e t h e h o m e s i c k factor.

"It gets hard w h e n you see e v e r y o n e leaving to be with their families and k n o w i n g that you c a n ' t be with yours," A n a n i n a said. " B u t s i n c e I h a v e been here for five years, I am more adapted."

Students from Hope w h o h e a d e d to f o r e i g n ports for the fall s e m e s t e r f a c e the c h a l l e n g e of k e e p i n g hold on a tradition that d o e s n ' t translate to their host countries.

Many of the abroad p r o g r a m s r e m e d y this dil e m m a by t h r o w i n g holiday celebrations for the A m e r i c a n students. " T h e program that I w e n t abroad with threw a celebration for the A m e r i c a n students, with a dinner and d a n c e , " said Amy Ebright ( ' 9 6 ) . w h o

B e i n g s e r v e d a turkey with sparkling c a n d l e s in il m a d e the c e l e b r a t i o n s e e m like a festive party.

After a turkey main course, Spanish omelettes, sangria, and c h a m p a g n e w e r e served to add a S p a n i s h twist to the e v e n i n g . " E v e r y A m e r i c a n student s i g n e d up for the T h a n k s g i v i n g d i n n e r ; no one missed out on it." B a k e r said. "I thought that it w a s neat for us to s h o w the p r o f e s s o r s w h a t o u r c u s t o m s are."
