You've put a lot of time and work into the past four or five years and are finally graduating. What do you get for your efforts at the end of this year? Definitely not just a diploma. You've recently escaped the parents and have just finished your first year away from home. What do you have to show for it? Hopefully more than a registration slip that tells your class load for Fall '95. The University of Illinois this past year presented students with many opportunities to do more than just classes. During AIDS Awareness Week, in an effort to teach students about the deadly disease, condoms and educational brochures were passes out on the Quad and in the Union. The week ended with the arrival and display of 300 pieces of the Names Project Quill in the Union for two days. With a section of the Quilt f the Green Meadows Girl Scout Council of Central Illinois. Quite a lut ol effort was nut into ar ranging National Coming Out D.i here on campus, which turned out to be a big success and a great ex- perience for many. The Mini Foresters didn't practice much foi Con- clave, so unfortunately, they came in sixth. The URH Specialty Restau- rant staff gives each meal a lot of work, thus causing the student turn- out to sometimes be more than thay can handle. Many graduating se- niors give little or no thought to what their class should donate to the U of I as a class gift. When they find out later what was decided on. many are dissatisfied with their "choice." What this all really boils down to is what all those "old folks" have been telling you all along - what you give is what you get. You get what you pay for. Anything worth doing is worth doing right. And as in any situation, you get back what you put in. The U of I has a long standing tradition of excellence. The bulk of the credit goes to the students, as they are the ones who make the univer- sity what it is today. And academic excellence isn't the only thing the 111 ini have going for them; each of these students has a life outside the walls of the classroom. The celebration of heritage, the anniversaries of Assembly Hall and Krannert Center for the Performing Arts, rallies, parties and Earth Day are all prime examples of the incredible vibrance and determination of this university. Financially, socially and mentally, each student is giving a little to and getting a little from the U of I. In everything that has happened in the 1993-94 school year, we have all learned at least one thing. Through the terrors of the flood, the thrills of Mom's and Dad's Day, the harsh winter weather, the wonder- ful activities offered by the Division of Campus Recreation and the controversy surrounding Chief Illiniwek, the obvious lesson has been learned: you get back what you put in.

Student Life 9 Spending Time With Dear OV Mom STORY BY DEBBIE WILLIAMS LAYOUT BY KRIS MOSKWA AND DEBORAH SOKOLOW Oh no! It's time to clean the room again! No, it's not the end of the year — it's Mom's Weekend! It's time to put away all of those cups from the bars and blow the dust off of the text books. After all, we wouldn't want Mom to know what really goes on in our lives. Mom's Weekend is overflowing with things to do: there is the annual Flower and Garden show, the Fashion Show, the Spring Musical, the Atius Sing and many more fun things to do with mom. No student/mom team could pack all these great events into such a short weekend! The IUB spring musical, "Anything Goes," was a huge success. It was directed by Michael Ross and the cast was completely comprised of students. The musical was held at Assembly Hall with one performance on Friday night and two performances on Saturday. After many months of hard work, the cast finally came together and overcame the nervous and anxious feelings some of the younger cast members were experiencing and put on j a great show. "I think the show is one of the major attractions on Mom's Weekend because it is always fun and very entertaining for everyone," said Gemma Wall, sophomore in FAA. ANOTHER major attraction on Mom's Weekend is the Atius- Sachem Mom's Day Sing. The show features 10 organization pairs who each perform a 7-minute song and dance skit. The competition was fierce as each group contended lor the first place position. Sigma Tau Gamma and Delta Zeta won the show with their skit entitled "For Pete's Sake." Triangle and Alpha Delta Pi earned second place with "Charlie Brown Ties the Knot." Sigma Pi and Pi Beta Phi took third place with "Trouble in TV Land." Other skits included "Where's Waldo?" by Alpha; Sigma Phi and Chi Omega and "A Colorful Anecdote" by Kappa Sigma and Alpha Omicron Pi. The Sing is a big event for Greek moms, especially if their "baby" is in the show. "My mom really loved the Atius show, especially since she's newer seen me up on stage before," said Mike Scelci, sophomore in Engineering. The Flower and Garden Show, sponsored by the Horticulture Club, features many different kinds of flowers and plants that are on display for viewing as well as purchasing., The theme for the 1993 show was "Yesterday's Gardens for Today." Every fall, students in the Horticulture Club decide upon! the theme of their own garden and, with the help of other club members, design and grow their garden for display in the. spring. "The Garden Show is very appealing to just about everyone because it provides a beautiful outdoor setting with a large variety of colorful plants to be seen," said Brad Leman, senior in Agriculture and the head of construction for the 1993 show. The ILLINI UNION also plays a major role in hosting activities for moms. One such event is the IUB fashion Show. The show features some of the latest trends in the world of fashion. A quick trip out to the mall may convince mom that those clothes really arc great-looking — especially on her favorite kid! The annual IUB Craft Show is also held in the Illini Union. This creative event features all different kinds of handmade crafts, jewelry and clothing. You're sure to find something for everyone at the Craft Show. JOANNE Kern, junior in LAS, said, "We usually go and see the Atius show and the Spring Musical. It's a great chance for moms to spend time with their sons and daughters." No matter which of the many events you and mom choose to attend, it is sure to be a fun-filled weekend.

" ♦ Joanne Kerne Christopher Barne Mom's Day J Chief Controversy Still Going Strong STORY BY V I D A R I S K U S LAYOUT B Y BOB GONZALES Since 1990, U of I students, faculty and alumni debated whether Chief Illiniwek should continue to represent the university as a sports mascot and symbol. Disagreement on what constitutes proper respect for Native Americans defined the growing rift, which was far from closed by the University Board of Trustees' vote in 1990 to keep the Chief. In October 1993, the University of Iowa banned the use of Native American symbols in its homecoming game with the U of I. Iowa's Homecoming Executive Council made this decision to curtail brewing hostility, which had already erupted in the past. For instance, in 1991, Native American groups on the Iowa campus protested the use of Chief Illiniwek and other symbols. The fury was caused by a depiction of Iowa's Herkey Hawk cutting off the braids of Chief Illiniwek, used in the past on window paintings and parade floats. "We were happy with the homecoming council's new policy," Tracey LeBeau, representative for the American Indian Student Association and third-year law student at Iowa, said. "We think it reflects the majority of students on campus." LeBeau, a Cheyenne River Sioux, was one of about 70 Native American students attending the university. A significantly smaller representation of Native Americans at the U ol I led some lo fault those in Cjiampaign- Urbana lor insensitivity. "It's an oppression thing — you wouldn't understand," said Sheila Thomas, graduate research assistant here at the I ol I Sambo and the Chief Illiniwek' are icons or symbols of an oppressed people ( reated by the oppressor." U of Iowa banned Native American symbols in response to "as I understand it... the gross misrepresentation of the Chief from the dignified symbol that we encourage — more to a negative, disparaging representation of Native Americans," Stanley Levy, Vice Chancellor for Student Affairs, said. However, noting the varied reactions, motivation for the ban was open to interpretation. In any case, Iowa's action by no means contributed to a resolution of the issue at the U of I. The day of Iowa's homecoming, people of color at the V of I held a tailgate party to express disapproval of the Chief. "We're trying to get rid of the Chief because it's a racist symbol," Gabriel Cortez, sophomore in Education, said. "Human rights are being violated by the University." U of I's Executive Homecoming Committee also banned the Chief symbol from floats in its Oct. 29, 1993, Homecoming parade. "We felt that not allowing anyone to misrepresent the Chief was the most pro-Chief stance," Jim Connell, Interfraternity Council chairperson of the Homecoming Parade Committee, said. Some pro-Chief groups expressed their stance by speaking out to support keeping the symbol because it "represents the cultural influence of Native Americans," said Nick Bellini of College Republicans and sophomore in CBA. "We did a survey in November! 1993) of alumni on this issue," Don Dodds, Alumni Association I )irec tor lor the I Irbana-Champaign campus, said. "About 77% voted to keep the Chief. We also get hundreds, maybe thousands ol responses, letters, calls and personal comments [from U of I alumni]. You hear the w In ile range ol arguments, and the) basically choose tin- pro ones." One such alumnus, State Representative Timothy Johnson, maintained that "Chief Illiniwek is strong, dignified, proud and symbolic of a great Llniversity. He is the very opposite of racism or purposeful discriminatory practices. He honors Native Americans, and he honors a great state." Yet. whether or not the Chief is 'dignified' is a matter of contention. "Supposedly, the Chief's dance is based on an authentic Indian dance which has been modified tor entertainment value," said Tony Fabri, junior in LAS. "Because dancing often has religious significance in native cultures, wouldn't you consider it a little inappropriate for the half-time show? It's sort of like watching someone dressed up like a priest, offering communion to the Illinettes." "There will always be a select few, albeit sincere, who seek a new cause' to which to object," Johnson said. "That is the essence of a free society. However, I hope that all relevant decision-makers will have the guts and the wisdom to resist these misguided attacks and Keep the Chief.'" "Before making that decision, however, we should try to see the Chief through the eyes of those who are most affected b\ it." Fabri said. "You should try to imagine howl it would feel to see your race And culture reduced to a hall-time show ." Apparently, the "highly emotionally! charged'' Chief issue has "slipped back into name-calling and it is impossible lo people talking about it," said Nina Shephena former Board of Trustees member and I of!

In 1993 the University of Minnesota hosted the contest at Itasca State Park, about a hundred miles from th Canadian border. Even though the U of I representatives only earned sixth place out of eight schools they came home wit some good memories. The trip started at four in the morning on Friday, October 22, when the club met for breakfast. The they started their long drive north to Itasca, Minnesota. Feeling a little bored from the drive, they remedied the situation b purchasing a half case of Old Mil later on Friday afternoon, and then continued on their merry way. When they arrived th weekend officially started with a bonfire as an opening ceremony. On Saturday the real stuff began. The U of I began t do battle with University of Minnesota, Southern Illinois University, Michigan Tech, Purdue, Michigan State University Southeast Illinois College and University of Missouri in a series of fifteen lumberjack competitions. The events included th Two-Man Buck (sawing contest), the Log Roll, Two-Lady Log Roll, Two-Lady Buck, Bolt Throw, Chain Throw.

A Day to Celebrate Pork STORY Y TIMOTHY SHEA LAYOUT BY COLLEEN MURRAY On Nov. 20, Fighting Illini football fans watched the Wisconsin Badgers trot into Memorial Stadium, put a buzz-kill end to our 199; season and dash our post-season bowl game hopes. Just few weeks earlier the U of I campus was attacked by a widespread an< unexpected round of "Rose Bowl Fever." But our big-as-Pasadena optimism came and went in a flash, lasting exactly as long as it took thi Penn State Nittany Lions to reject our Illini — in the rain and on their own turf.BuT the Badgers' snatching a victory from the Fighting Illin was not the only event of the day. Nov. 20, 1993, was also Pork Day, an annual event which really saved some people's sanity as the; adjusted to our Big Ten rank. Some of us, before the game even started, were able to enjoy pork sandwiches, chips and unlimited drink at the Illinois Pork Producers Association (I. P. P. A.) tailgate tent. Others were able to visit with a charming hog that was being sociafl in a trailer near the tent. Gutsy fans had the chance to guess the weight of the animal. The treat of having the I. P. P. A. tent on campus \\a warmly received. Tailgaters enjoyed about 1,000 pounds of pork sandwiches, a few drinks and genuine camaraderie because the Fightfl Illini Pork Club provided the manpower and assistance to ensure the set-up would be a success. Roger Brown, the Director and Via President of the I. P. P. A., said he cannot remember a year when the U of I missed a Pork day. "We are thankful to the U of I for ha\ ing u there again, and we all are proud of Pork Day." Brown said. The reason why the U of I, one of the only Midwestern schools to host thj event, even has a Pork Day can be explained in the I. P. P. A. mission statement. They seek to "Provide the pork producer with sen ices tha enhance the profitability and consumer preference for pork." So the whole deal is a matter of simple microeconomics: making sure ili.i the consumer demand for pork is only affected positively, and by making sure nothing outside of the market reduces profit. Simph stall an interest group, the I. P. P. A., seeks to increase pork sales by marketing the product and protecting the indusirx when lawmakers il Springfield consider creating legislation pertaining to pork. BESIDES dealing in those larger issues, the LP.P.A. recognizes the cxccller resource it has in the U of I. The Animal Sciences Department, the College of Veterinary Medicine ,w\^\ other groups within the Colleger.

According to Miller, the mission of the DCR is to present recreational activities that are consistent with students' needs id desires. The administrative staff, and the student employees understand that U of I students and faculty work hard. So e DCR gives them recreation choices — whether it be in an indoor bicycle race or an Easter egg hunt on the Quad. The CR runs two buildings, one field complex and three other facilities that are shared with other University departments. In klition to their full-time staff, the DCR extends job opportunities to about 700 students; they are ranked second to Food irvices in rate of campus employment. DCR's student employees love the job. They usually get involved because of their vn personal interest and some even see the pay as secondary to the fun they are having. Karla Pietrzyk, junior in CBA, got volved as a referee because of her interest in Softball and volleyball. This year she is one of the Head Supervisors at the 1PE facility. "It's a fun department. The job is rewarding because there are a lot of things people can do. The inflow of ?ople here (IMPE) is incredible," Pietrzyk said. "Meeting people is the best part." NlCK GALLEGOS, junior in CBA, was a udent referee as a freshman and now serves as president of the ISOA Board. "Working here was a chance to get involved ith athletics as a freshman," Gallegos said. "If you like a certain sport, like volleyball, it is a chance to get paid to do what >u like." GALLEGOS agrees with Pietrzyk that meeting people with similar interests is a plus.

The Dad's Day game was broadcast lationally by ESPN as its Big Ten game of the week. "FOOTBALL is one of — if not he — largest generator of revenue for the area," said Linda Zigament, Director of Community Promotion at the Champaign-Urbana Convention and Visitors Bureau. Nonetheless, Dad's Day did include a great deal more activity than just vatching the football game. Due to cold weather, the game was an ordeal. "Not inly did my dad come for Dad's Day and the football game," said Kevin Anderson, ;enior in Communications and member of Marching Illini, "but he jumped around he football field with me, making a fool of himself." As in recent years, eservations at local hotels were made up to a year in advance to secure a room for he busy weekend. The Illini Union guest rooms handle their reservations with a ottery at 8:00 a.m. the day after Dad's Day for the following year. Hotels as far as tantoul were packed with U of I dads.

"We didn't really do any of the organized activities," Liz 'acini, sophomore in LAS, said. "Besides the football game, my dad helped fix hings around my sorority house, and he took me out to eat." In fact, having Dad pend the weekend in Champaign-Urbana was an important contribution to the vhole community, bringing business to hotels, eating establishments and the fniversity.

Dad's Day 29 Students Protest South African Defense Force Presence on Campus STORY BY T O I WALKER LAYOUT BY CAROL FRANTILLA On Sept. 13, 1993, students of color protested a university ROTC program that invited the South African Defense Force (SADF) to our campus. Because there was no public announcement made about the controversial group's presence, many students felt that the action was covert and therefore a blatant form of racism and disrespect to African and African- American students here. The South African Defense Force is the active military group in South Africa designed to protect the institution of apartheid. According to the African National Congress headed by Nelson Mandela, they have been responsible for the murder of over one million Africans in an effort to insure that the institution of apartheid remain intact. The SADF is reportedly visiting the United States ROTC units to learn about the racial integration of United States Armed Forces and how they might learn from our examples. Robert Lane, senior in LAS, and spokesperson for the protest, was one of the main people responsible for orchestrating and presenting a list of demands to Donald Crummey, director of the Center for African Studies. According to Lane, U of I students of color hold Crummey chiefly responsible for the SADF's visit to campus. Along with the protest, several demands were made by a "group of dedicated Black people" wishing not to identify themselves. The list includes a full explanation and apology from Crummey, the ROTC program, Vice Chancellor for Student Affairs Stanley Levy and University President Stanley Ikenberry; a full explanation of intelligence monitoring of the funding for Study Abroad programs in Africa; a plan of action, with the possibility that Crummey, who is white, relinquish his position as African Studies Center director in favor of a qualified African male or female; a program funded by they University to educate students on the "true struggles of the African continent" with a budget of no less than $500; and a plan of action to guarantee the expansion of the African studies programs within the next five years. Various students spoke on the Quad regarding their feelings about the presence of the SADF on campus. Bobby Mitchel, senior in CBA said, "Sending the SADF to this university is like sending the Nazis to Brandeis University. " Brandeis is historically Jewish. The highlight speaker was a South African student named Bobby Bauoane, who gave personal testimony about the history of violence that has always been associated with the South African Defense Force. In a heavily accented voice, he told of violent uprisings in the districts of Soweto since 1974 and how many people he knew had died at the hands of police violence. He made it clear that students of African descent had a responsibility to "speak up for what is wrong." Some students feel that the university takes advantage of them by trying to keep them in the dark and by avoiding unpleasant situations, Lane said, "I believe that this epitomizes something that the University does everyday — that we don't have aclueabout, < )nedayit may directly affectyou, and then how will you feel?"

Reuse. Recycle. These three words have become very familiar in the past few years. Many environmentally conscio organizations have sprung up around campus to help educate and make us more aware of environmental issues. One of the main reaso for the changes in attitude is the annual Earth Day. Although we have just recently taken notice of the environment, Earth Day has be< around for over twenty years. Earth Day takes place on April 22 and is meant to raise awareness of environmental concerns and celebrate the environment. As a result of the heightened awareness of Earth Day many new campus organizations have been formed, sui as Students for Environmental Concerns, Rain Forest Action Group and the Society of Scientists for the Environment. Also, recyclii programs around campus have grown considerably in the past few years. This year's celebration took place on the Quad with mai events throughout the day. Environmental organizations, such as Students for Environmental Concerns, sponsored booths, inform* people of their purposes and raised awareness of current environmental issues. Some of the major topics were recycling, the ozone lay and pollution. Also, many of these organizations sold t-shirts to generate money for their causes. In addition to t-shirts, vegetarian fo< was also sold to raise money. Another big attraction of Earth Day was the bands that played throughout the day. Some of these wei Hundred Acre Wood, Difficult Listening 2, Organic Advisor, Suede Chain and Electric Pubah. "I think the bands attracted more people the Quad that may not have otherwise come to Earth Day. If anything the bands at least let people know why we were out there," sa Mike Rosenthal, senior in Engineering and chairman of the Inter-Fraternity Council Environmental Committee. Basically, Earth Day 19 was a celebration of the Earth and the environment that we live in. "Earth Day is a great way to keep people informed on how far we' come and where we need to go in order to improve the place in which we live," said Erin O'Rourke, senior in LAS. Even though Earth D is only one day out of the entire year, we should still keep in mind what it is all about and try to do things to improve our environme: "I think it (Earth Day) makes enough of an impact that people change even one thing that they are doing to help save the environmen said Rosenthal.

ISA Expresses Cultural Traditions STORY V I D A i K U S LAYOUT BY CAROL FRANTILLA Kathak and Bharal Nat} am, two classical Indian dances, represent discipline and devotion to God. The styles and the languages of the songs which accompany them indicate their southern Indian origins. These dances, two of the most popular, are a staple in every Indian dance or cultural event. India Night, held on March 19, 1993, at Foellinger Auditorium, included these and several more dances as well as singing, plays and other creative entertainment. India Night, organized and run by the Indian Students Association (ISA), was a large-scale cultural evening representing all states of India. Performers, who were required to audition, presented modern as well as classical Indian dances, songs and original acts. In the new Dandia Raas, a popular dance from the state of Gujarat, a group of dancers performed with sticks. Singers both accompanied dances and performed separately. The evening ended with the traditional finale, Bhangra, which is an upbeat, energetic dance from Punjab. This invited the enthusiastic audience into the active celebration, causing an enthusiastic free-for-all. ISA sponsored two more formal cultural events. The first, Divali Night, was held on Nov. 12 and 13. This Festival of Lights involved a traditional formal dinner with a cultural show. It was a social celebration lasting two nights. Holi, or Celibration of Colors, was a spring picnic at which people used squirt guns and colored powder as a display. The organization's cultural, social and community-interaction activities began with the Fall Picnic at which new members were incorporated into the group through a Big/Little Sibling Program which is new this year. Neha Shah and Sunil Ahuja, social chairs, organized this and other events which included an ice cream social, a barn dance, the Spring semi-formal and various sports activities. Weekly meetings were held with the board, led by President Niraj Jain, to plan cultural and social events and special projects. These special projects reflected a growing emphasis, noticeable this year, on Asian-American unity. Ankit Patel, as vice-president external, coordinated regular meetings with other Asian student organizations campus-wide. He and ISA collaborated with groups such as Asian American Association (AAA) to hear speakers from all over the United States and discuss education, traditions and, Asian representation as a minority group. ANOTHER emerging issue became community interaction, giving service as an organization both to the United States and locally. ISA sponsored philanthropies and volunteered at the Women's Shelter in Champaign, encouraging all of its members to become involved. MEMBERSHIP of ISA often overlapped with membership of the Hindu Student Council (I ISC), a national organization with a religious focus on Hindu education. "It is a forum lor educating people on Hindu heritage and traditions," said Rajeshwari Pandharipande, professor of religious studies and linguistics. HSC centralized on communication ol ideas through discourses and lectures, providing an academic locus lor students interested and involved in their heritage.

The Senior Class Gift is a permanent contribution to the U of I campus. It is a show of appreciation by the year's graduates and is chosen every year in early fall. "We start soliciting [the students] after Homecoming, "saidJudyVabb, assistant director of the Alumni Association and Senior Challenge Advisor. "Then we work closely in Chancellor Levy's office. The Chancellor's Cabinet decides from students' suggestions what would be appropriate." STUDENTS are then presented with a narrowed list of potential gifts and given the opportunity I f]||| to select a gift by voting. The 1 994 CLASS Gift was a plan to refurbish the walkway between £ ' i " Altgeld Hall and the Henry Administration Building, just east of the corner of Wright and John \\ g 5 3 streets. The Alumni Association raised money by collecting from graduating seniors, planning the actualization of the gift for its formal presentation at the graduation ceremony. The 1994 Gift drew some harsh criticism from students because the landscaping plan included taking out the bike racks that had long occupied the territory. "They're getting rid of the biggest bike rack on campus, which is going to be inconvenient for a lot of students," Tim Gritten, graduate student, said. "It's just as stupid as our gift, which was to continue working on the Undergrad library. That place still looks bad." "Where am I going to park my bike?" Andrew Olszewski, senior in LAS/Engineering, said. "Besides, you know what's going to happen. People are going to start chaining their bikes to the trees. Students have such a disregard for University property. " Other reactions were more constructive. "I think increasing handicap accessibility across campus would make a good gift," said Dave Simkins, alumnus. "More security lights would also be helpful." However, these concerns apparently did not attract significant support during the decision-making process. The Student Alumni Association followed through production of the 1994 Senior Class Gift, using the idea selected by the class. 36 siwdrni Life ' They 're getting rid of the biggest bike rack on campus, which is going to be inconvenient for a lot of students.

Spaced across American soil are two breei of businesses that plan their structure, systems and size according to what their corporate goals are. Some are huge corporations th organize large quantities of people and capital to participate in huge market activities. And then there are small, family-style business that get a relatively smaller piece of the pie by using a close, tiny network of people and resources to reach their ends. The evolution this sort of organizational structure is natural for business. And maybe it's a glimpse into human nature, too: a parallel exists between tl need to provide basic survival stuff given the world's scarcity and to mankind's propensity to TAILGATE. Look closely at the parking 1 outside Memorial Stadium before every home football game. Look past the smoke from the grills, the flocks of footballs flying around ai the music blasting. Two types of groups emerge. The two groups have the same goal in mind, but they achieve that goal by choosing eith small or large structures. Their goal is the same: to reach the maximum level of "Tailgating Utility." But they definitely go about differently. Some stretch out the wide shelter to house a whole bunch of folks. And they have resources as well. Usually a fine Americ; beer company will sponsor the event by giving out free brew to patrons, and that's half the way to maximum tailgating utility right thei The Planet, WPGU, is a driving force in the U of I tailgate industry. Their tent, called the "Goal-Lein" because Leinenkugels sponsors thei is always rated highly. Jethandelyn Morales, a junior in ALS and the Marketing Assistant for the station, believes that their efforts are m placed. "Our tent is an opportunity for students and residents to get excited before kick-off. It's the free pizza and beer that puts it ov the edge," said Morales. Ron Prus, junior in Aviation, enjoys a beer before a Illini Football game. "The best thing about big tent tailgatii parties is the free beer," Prus said. "You can enjoy the company of a few beers and then go get your face painted and climb up to yo seat in the stadium." Tom Peroulas, junior in LAS, also respects the big tailgate parties for their expertise in providing him with a good pi game time. "I like to go because my buds are there, and if I didn't go the house would be empty because of the game," Peroulas said. "E| if it rains, the tarp protects me, my free beer and my friends." But the market is not cornered by these large empires. The rest of the parkii lot is super-saturated with small groups of families and students. Although done on a reduced scale, the job is done well. Bonnie Kennei senior in CBA, said she likes to sit outside with her friends to talk, eat, drink and mind the grill. "You've got to love sitting outside wi good people, hamburgers and cold beers," Kennedy said. "It's important to me to properly prepare for the Illini football experieno Keely O'Riley, sophomore in Engineering, runs her tailgate parties similarly, but she avoids the labors of the grill by assembi sandwiches before hand. "We can spend more time playing catch and having a good time. I like to be outside and celebrate the game wi a bunch of friends," O'Riley said. Families also have noteworthy tailgate efforts. Dave Morr, senior in Engineering, has made fam tailgating a tradition. "My parents and my two brothers come up to school here, and we tailgate for a few hours before the game \l> said. "We play football out in the lot and act like Illini wanna-bes. And then we sit back and get stuffed on all the food that Mom broufj The game is usually good, but the best part is the tons of food." Besides being a regular good old time with the family, tailgating is a livii extension of tradition for some students and their families. Chris Puckelwartz, senior in LAS, remembered a game when his fathei a uncle, who is an alumnus, taught young Chris how to do it right. "We were out there in the lot and had some good dogs and burgers, a: of course the beer was flowing — all done in the spirit of the upcoming contest." Puckelwartz said. "Hut die fact that 1 was there w ith t family, having some laughs, making merry, seemed to be almost a bonding experience.

On Sept. 16, 1810, in the village of Dolores, the Indians of Mexico, with the battle cry "Viva Nuestra Senora de Guadalupe, viva la Independencia!" fought the Spaniards and achieved their independence. Mexican Independence Day was celebrated in 1993, not just in Mexico, but also at the TJ of I. Ricardo Romero, coordinator of the Mexican National Liberation Movement (Movimiento Liberations National Mexico, MLNM), spoke during the Grito de Dolores (Mexican Independence) celebrations on the Quad Thursday, Sept. 16, 1993- "As you come through these institutions of higher learning, maintain your national consciousness," Romero said. "You're here because there was a struggle to get you here." ROMERO said he was concerned about people of color being underrepresented in colleges and universities and over-represented in prisons and hoped to encourage others by sharing his experiences. Romero recounted for his audience a story of a young boy forced to spend school days in a corner with other children who spoke no English. He could neither read nor write by the sixth grade. "It is not that we are inherently lazy or stupid that we are at the bottom [in American education]," Romero said. "It's because we lost half of our land base... Even though we are in the United States, we never stop being Mexican." Romero added he wanted to combat fear of Mexicans in the United States and to fight for land taken in the Mexican-American War. FESTIVITIES of the day included traditional ethnic activities. Thursday evening, LI of I Mexican students organized a parade, driving past the residence halls in cars. Flags waved, and Spanish music and Mexican chants pervaded the atmosphere. "We were seen and heard by many people on campus," Lorena Garcia, sophomore in LAS, said. "We get criticism from the police, the University and other students for being loud and obnoxious' when we get together to commemorate an important moment in our history." Mexican Independence Day at the LI of I was a chance for students to come together and recognize their heritage, their traditions and their struggle. It wasareassertionof their identity.

Mexican Independence Day 4l Little Siblings Experience aU of I Weekend STORY BY V I D A RISKIS LAYOUT BY BOB GONZALES Young adults have left the comfort and safety of home for the confusion and treachery of life on the U of I campus. Is this atmosphere of stress-ridden, bar- infested academia — big kids unleashed — too traumatic for the eyes of their younger siblings? Nah, the activities of this year's Little Siblings Weekend (Sept. 24-26, 1993) were specially formulated to cater to the appreciation of such pristine minds. The experience began with a pep assembly Friday evening, showcasing prestigious Illini performers as the Black Chorus, the Girls Next Door and the Dancing Illini. This was part of a series of "Get to know the LI of I" planned events, continuing on Saturday with a 10 a.m. tour of the campus, a pre-game tailgate party sponsored by Domino's and Subway and the football game at 1 p.m. "The football game was fun, even though it was rainy and cold," Amber Krause, freshman in LAS, said. "It was Band Day, so they had different high school band performances. It was kind of cool." On Saturday evening a street dance had been planned, but, due to bad weather, it was moved into to Allen Hall. Sunday was then a day of unplanned activity, leaving the siblings on their own to enjoy the day together. Ahavaha Pyrtel, sophomore in LAS, said, "I really enjoyed having my sister (Aijalon, 16) here for the weekend. We went to the Co-Ed to see The Good Son. We each enjoyed it, and it's an unusual theater, which she liked." Planned activities helped to change the social focus from the prevalent bar scene to a more family- based atmosphere. "Plus, having siblings down here was kind of a subconscious reminder to the students that they shouldn't be running around in the streets so much," Pyrtel said. "It was a more wholesome weekend." LITTLE SIBLINGS WEEKEND was also a way of incorporating family members in the college students' lives. It allowed them to take part in a few days' activities, something missed in visits home. " I pretty much spent the time showing my sister ( Ashley, IS) what 1 do, how I spend a day here," Krause said. "We watched movies, ate candy liars. We also both love Dairy Queen, so we walked all the way there together." i^ stiidrni Life Jason Peragint (left), junior in LAS, plays /'><• «•!'«'»• popular host Hob i oanhssfor //><■ / ////<• Sil>\ (.time.

An often overlooked area of concern at the U of I is that of the vegetarian population. Many people, in fact, tend not to think about the needs of vegetarians due to the small amount of coverage that the issue receives. Therefore many of the vegetarians here find that they are not satisfied with the meals that are offered to them in the University Residence Halls. There are varied reasons why students choose to be vegetarians. Some do so for the sake of the animals — they are opposed to human consumption of animals. They may also be opposed to inhumane farming techniques. Some are vegetarians for health benefits; e.g., reduced risk of heart attack, reduced blood pressure and better weight control. Just as there are different reasons for being a vegetarian, there are different types of vegetarians. There are vegans; that is, vegetarians who eat no animal products at all. To supplement their diet, they consume foods like soy milk which is a milk-like drink made completely from plant by-products. There are also ovo-lacto vegetarians who eat only plant products, as well as egg and dairy products. Some vegetarians are so strict that some non-meat products are not part of their diets. For example, marshmallows and Jell-O cannot be consumed because they have gelatin in them, which contains animal products. To BE A vegetarian one clearly must make educated choices about his or her food intake. Some students living in the residence halls have found that these choices are somewhat limited. The meals designed specifically for vegetarians are few. Ian Gantner, freshmen in Engineering and self-proclaimed vegetarian said, "At first I thought the cafeteria would serve something appropriate for vegetarians, but I often get stuck eating cereal." This opinion is shared by many vegetarians, who are often left with the options of salad, waffles, cereal and a few other items. There is however, at least one vegetarian entree offered along with the other menu items. Sometimes these items include pasta with meatless sauce or the "Super Spud Bar" (potatoes with assorted toppings). Mike Griffin, an employee of the Peabody Dining Services, said "We [the Dining Services] do our best to please [vegetarians] but with the menu we follow, it is hard to keep everyone happy." The only "sure bet" residence hall vegetarians have is Field of Greens, a daily vegetarian lunch served in one of the Lincoln Avenue Residence Hall cafeterias. "I think that the Field tries to cater to the needs of strict vegetarians, as well as to those who are just looking for a change of pace," said Sheela Konda, freshman in LAS and frequenter of Field of Greens. The nutrition cards tell which entrees may contain eggs or dairy products. Otherwise all entrees are vegan. Field of Greens even has vegan margarine. They are also the only residence hall cafeteria which serves soy milk. Most vegetarians are pleased with these offerings, explained LAS sophomore Joseph Lasky. "I think there should be more of these kinds of offerings in the regular cafeterias to cater to the quickly growing vegetarian population." said Lasky. ALMOST NO STUDENT would contend that it is easy to be a vegetarian in the residence halls. Susan Kalis, freshman in I. AS said, "1 don'l think people realize thai whai vegetarians eal as a meal is generally what non-vegetarians eal on the side."

CAMPUS education is an important purpose of the group. Those interested can check out books on these issues from more than 400 available selections in the PGLBC office library. A switchboard telephone line is available to provide information and referrals to callers in need. PGLBC plans activities to reach out to students through guest speakers, workshops and seminars. A Coming Out support group encourages those who are undergoing what can be the traumatic discovery and declaration of their sexual orientation. NATIONAL COMING OUT DAY, Oct. 1 1, 1993, was a significant event for the gay/lesbian community. "This year, we had a rally, with two speakers, a panel discussion and a Gay/Lesbian Dinner," said Ean Barnard, president of PGLBC. IN ADDITION to meetings for discussion and planning of events, a series of social activities, organized by the PGLBC Social Committee, included a Gay/Lesbian Film Fest and a potluck dinner. Both encouraged development of the gay/lesbian/bisexual community. "Working with people involved with the gay/lesbian/bisexual movement has helped me become more proud and more confident in who I am," Jenny Wright, vice president and sophomore in LAS, said. NOT ONLY is the organization important as an educational resource for both those involved and the entire community, but it is a forum for its members to address issues that are influential in their lives. It is an opportunity to create and benefit from a supportive environment for gays, lesbians and bisexuals. "I'd say our purpose is half education and half helping the members of the gay community," Barnard said.

Presenters, dancers with eir costumes and ethnic dishes weremade ailable to more than 250 participants to rious aspects of the Asian-American, Latino- nerican and African-American cultures. msidering the free admission, the program is truly a treat. The programming committees the three ethnic groups, in cooperation lder the umbrella organization of the ini Union Board, strived to enlighten all copies about their own individual cultural iritages and to find a common ground on hich they could create unity. 'Celebrating Our Heritage" was this year's llaboratory effort for the three programming immittees. Last year, they presented a ulticultural talk show, which provided a rum for skits and discussions about the oblems and stereotypes facing minority oups. In contrast, this year's multicultural ogram highlighted the positive facets of e Asian, Latino and African ethnicities, though the '94 program featured more Ivory, visual and rhythmic components of e various cultures, the goal remained the me: to educate the spectators about the iditions of other cultures. To further this trpose, the program also offered resource its of the different services of the Asian, 'dean and Latino groups on campus. I "Every year we hope to cross cultural les and break down stereotypes among fferent races," said Deryk Gilmore, Program anager for the Mini LTnion. "We want to lallenge the viewers- not just entertain iem." The events of the night featured a welcoming by Vida Gosrisirikul, senior in Communications and Asian-American Programming Committee co-chair, which then led into ethnic dances. Los Ocho Amigos, a Latino dance group, performed dances originating from Mexico called La Negra and Jarabe, from Cuba called Rumba Cubana, from Veracruz called La Bamba Mexico and from Dominican Republic called Merengue. The Philippine Student Association contributed Kuratsa, or Cockroach Dance, and Maglalatik, or Coconut Dance. The African-American Programming Committee shared their talents in performances entitled "Past — Let's Reminisce," "Present — Here and Now" and "Future — '94 to Infinity." In addition, Thai dancers and the Indian Student Association performed one act each: Satchatri, a classical Thai dance, and Dafalli Valli, a popular film song and dance. Finally, Raymond Williams, senior in LAS and African- American Programming Committee co-chair, capped the evening off with his closing speech. While watching the visual feast, attendees enjoyed the added benefit of munching ethnic- goodies such as: almond jello, xao, salsa, catfish fillets, tortilla of potatoes and onions, pecan tarts, sweet potato pie, smoked pork hocks, collard/mustard greens, queso fundido and stuffed tofu. All dishes were prepared by students who hoped to instill the original cultural flavor of recipes handed down within their families. They were not simply kitchen experiments straight out of a cookbook. In hopes of sharing these traditional foods with a larger audience, a "Celebrating Our Heritage Multicultural Cookbook and Resource Directory" was compiled. Furthermore, in keeping with the 'giving' attitude of the sponsors, the leftover food was donated to Men's Emergency Shelter and McKinley Foundation. In essence, "Celebrating Our Heritage" was a success from any way the people involved looked at it. Not only did the sponsors get feedback from participants that they had enjoyed it, but the presenters had fun as well. "All the students were excited about showing everyone what their own culture was about," said Theresa Sanchez, junior in LAS and a member of Los Ocho Amigos. "It was a positive experience," said Kalpesh Patel, freshman in LAS and Indian dancer, "even though the program does need some work." Some of the 'work' he thought the three committees could concentrate on included showing an even greater myriad of cultures, getting even more in-depth with the traditions of the various ethnicities and providing better advertising. In other words, the multicultural program Mini LJnion Board puts on next year should only be bigger and better. As further evidence of the success of the evening was the fact that the objective seemed to have been achieved. Backstage, a sense of unity filled many of the members of the various Asian, African and Latino groups of performers. "We didn't feel secluded within our own culture," said Sanchez. "All the performers talked to each other." Furthermore, hopes of educating people about the various aspects of these rich ethnic heritages seemed to have been fulfilled. Through the celebration of the Latino, African and Asian cultures, participants came away with the awareness of what other students can offer. Celebrating Our Heritage 49 able to do them all.

Everyone has had run into chaotic little quirks in their lives that make them uncomfortable, nervous and humbled by embarrassment. Everyone has had tiny gremlins play tricks on them. U of I students are no exception to that natural law. But on the U of I campus a general inability to recall these memories is quite widespread. Nobody seems to remembertheir most embarrassing stories— and that is what friends are for. Michael Mazuklli, sophomore in LAS, spent a good two minutes racking his brain trying to find a noteworthy tale. He tried and he tried but he couldn't seem to remember one, so his loyal friend, Michael Mrstik, sophomore in LAS, ended his search by jogging his memory for him. "Hey, what about the time you got chewed out by that girl...whats- her-name... Julie or something," Mrstik said. "Oh, yeah," Mazuklli said. "There was this girl, Julie, who I met from a friend from home," Mazuklli said. "We went out to some bar or something and had a pretty good time. A few days later I saw this girl on campus who I could swear was Wendy, who was on my floor freshman year. So I said 'Hey' and stuff and didn't think about it. Then one day I was in the dorm library and saw the same girl who I thought was Wendy. So I sat down with her and started talking and stuff, because a bunch of her friends were there. After a bit the conversation got a bit squirrely, and she started acting odd. After a while she stood up and said, 'Do you even know who I am?' So I said, 'Yeah you're Wendy from the dorms last year.' I didn't believe her so I asked for an ID. Julie stood up and got verbally upset at me," said Mazuklli. So then Mrstik got his memory jogged by Mazuklli. "Hey, remember the time your father came down?" Mazuklli said. "Oh yeah. Last Dad's Day, he came down to school and decided he would drink me and my friends under the table. We went to the White Horse and started doing shots," Mrstik detailed. "After a while he did some tequila shots and he began to throw the lime away and be tough about it. Soon he was good and ripped, so we took off and went to Kam's. On the way dad was running down the middle of Green Street singing. When we got to Kam's the bouncer didn't let Dad in because he was so ripped. So Dad started bitching and stuff and he didn't behave until a cop sauntered overto see what the problem was. My most embarrassing moment is having to argue with a cop in front of my friends, so he would let my dad go. Similarly, Andrea Durkin, freshman in LAS, couldn't think of a darn thing until Amanda Davis, freshman in Engineering, helped her recall. "OK, I'll tell about the 'Shoe Story'," Davis said. "I was at a Halloween Exchange with Lambda Chis and we were in there house. They set it up so that every room had a different drink and some parts of the house you had to crawl to get to. So I was crawling around and I guess I lost these new black shoes that I bought. " At this upcoming Atius practice we are going to search the house for the missing shoes," Durkin said. "What about the time at pom team practice?" Davis said, after prompting from Durkin. "I was having a bad day anyway but during practice, I was in the middle of a summer sault, like the part of the maneuver where my butt was in the air, and I floated a really big air-biscuit. I have to admit that I really let that one fly," Davis said. That is what friends are for.

Tony Landen, junior in LAS says, "I'm a sucker for sweepstakes. My roommates always make fun of the way I send in all the 'runner up' forms and get excited before I read the fine print." Athough many people think that catalogues and the like are evil and must be destroyed, others get sucked into the liquid world of money and credit and find themselves dialing the 1-800 story by Lavina Kraujalis number to order a new wardrobe from JCREW. After all, who needs rent and textbook money? Catalogues have an interesting way of reminding us what we really need.

Bargains and Scams Cassandra Ecker The U of I designed its Undergraduate Library with an emphasis on the needs of freshman and sophomores. It devised the following instructional mission: to provide an introduction to research and writing at the university level. To carry out this mission, the library developed areas of its 1402 W. Gregory St. non-shadow-creating location into a multi-media, interactive information center. The Media Center, located on the first floor of "the Undergrad," contains the audio- visual material for the U of I's entire library system. The center, designed for self- directed, individualized instruction, boasts 14 viewing stations for videocassette and videodisc viewing from a collection of films, plays and nonfiction recordings. These cover Shakespeare, literature, psychology, cinema studies, theater, history, chemistry and other subject areas, focusing on academic documentaries. Because all resource material is required to remain in the library, students can make reservations to use viewing material. These include the aforementioned videocassette and videodisc players with television monitors as well as slide-sound and filmstrip-sound projectors, audiocassette o O request of instructors as class material. Although faculty are not permitted to indulge in non-class related viewing, "a lot of students come in here just for enjoyment, to take a break," Basu said. "Especially on Friday nights." A new feature of the Media Center, the Interactive Media Site, combines visual/ graphic images with audio soundtracks. Many students pick the Macintosh computer/laser-disc player/television monitor/videocassette recorder as a particular favorite. A brief orientation session with a Media Center staff member enables students use of these materials and access to state-of-the-art programs such as the Video Encyclopedia of the 25th Century: film covering cinema television from 1 893 through 1 988, and the National Gallery of Art and the Louvre. ^ \ &£ CD players, microfiche and readers. library," grad Center much as library, they Center." o *P ^ \\ s microfilm "It's just an extension of the said Sriparna Basu, student and Media staff member.

The U of I faculty makes use of the center by assigning movies to their students. Films on specific course reserves are provided by story by Vida Rizkus The Question Board (QB) adds a helpful and entertaining supplement to the student's information search. The QB, an anonymous question and answer service, deals mostly with trivia and general information. QB offers a chance to ask the questions wondered about but for one reason or another never asked. Sunny Kim, alumna, said she checks out the board occasionally because "they ask a lot of questions I might have had but didn't think about putting up. Some of them get really creative. Some questions ranged from "What are Cindy Crawford's measurements?" to "How are marshmallows made?", spanning topics from science to pop culture.

"I've been coming to [Urbana's Espresso Royale] for four years, every other night," Peter Bruce, senior in FAA, said. "I study. I find my place, and I watch." People-watching at campus coffee shops is undoubtedly a worthwhile activity. A quick glance around the newly renovated Espresso Royale, at 1117 W. Oregon, reveals tables supporting books, strewn papers, full coffee mugs, empty coffee mugs and, on occasion, the heads of exhausted students. On the animate side, dedicated studying and passionate conversing lurks amongst and over these tables. The shop is open from Monday through Sunday, 7 am until midnight. These hours make it possible for Angie Eisaman, freshman in LAS, to "come in here one or two times a day," she said. "I tend to either study, drink coffee, meet friends, drink more coffee, smoke . . ." The 'new and improved' Urbana Espresso boasts more room and a more customer-convenience oriented layout. "It's more open," Liz Gurney, employee and alumna, said. "Business has really picked up. We get more professors and professional people." "It doesn't feel like a jail cell anymore. I like it now better than before," Gurney said. And well that she does, since "I have a Masters degree, and now I'm working for five dollars an hour." The Daily Grind, at Johnstowne Center in Champaign, claims another population of cafe frequenters. "I've been to all the other coffee shops, but I mainly come here," Jared Trimble, c a f H o p p i n story by Vida Riskus sophomore in LAS, said. Trimble prefers the Grind because "there's more studying and conversations going on," he said. "It's probably the most studious of the cafes." Like Espresso Royale, the Daily Grind tends to draw larger crowds on the weekdays. "I recognize the regulars," Trimble said. "Every now and then I talk to some of them." The latest coffee shop to hit the U of I campus is Kaffee Europa, at 605 S. Wright St., which opened at the end of July 1993. "We get a lot of studiers — especially engineers, math people, professors and staff," Darryl Coan, one of the shop's owners, said. "And non-smokers.

If there is a market open, if there is some need that a part of the population has for a good or a service, than typic will be met by enterprising citizens. This is a fairly simple fact, and in order to further illustrate it, I give you the mile-long list of campus town restaurants, irry-outs and pizza deliverers. The cornucopia of pizza delivery firms is by far ranked number one in popularity. David DeSantiago, freshman in LAS, tries to 3t as much satisfaction as he can from his Residence Hall cafeteria, but when he exhausts that resource he trusts Papa John's to get him his fix. "It really all spends on how much money you have and how many people you're with, but P.J.'s is a good deal," DeSantiago said. And as most students agree pizza is not le only alternative. "For a change we get some sub sandwiches or rote, this market has its failures from time to time. The ;livery choices. Campus town pizza seekers are /ing to provide the cheapest product or the Stuff to Eat Italian beefs or something," DeSantiago said.

Although different cultures around the world have been piercing and permanently marking their bodies since the beginning of society, it has taken modern industrial nations up until the late twentieth century to develop a taste for it in a big way. Piercing stands at Lollapalooza concerts attest to the growing trend. However, since the professional world hasn't exactly endorsed this signifying practice, engineering and business students may want to reserve the more discreet and private areas for their personal trademarks. Kristen Bell, a sophomore in LAS asks, "how do you justify getting your lip pierced without saying it's a cool and trendy thing to do?" Identity, beauty, rebellion, status and masochism are some reasons students claim for having the most nontraditional body parts punctured and illustrated (eyebrow, tongue, scalp, nipples and scrotum for example). Perhaps there is something to be said for shock value and the overstimulation of a dye dipped needle but of course, not everyone agrees. In a tone of mild annoyance, senior in FAA Steve Kram says that "people are competing for outrageousness." Kram, who wonders what his children will be doing to their bodies in the future, lists dying his hair temporarity beet red as the most outrageous attempt he made at the transformation of his appearance. "But that was in high school and you'd think people would outgrow that sort of thing after awhile." Freshman in LAS Tony Larson says that if he had the money and were old enough, he would get a skeleton with a cane tipping a hat on his hip. "Tattooing is an old tradition from long ago which has become a lot more androgyness, says Larson. "Pirates, sailors and prisoners aren't the only ones to brand themselves. My girlfriend has a bird tattooed near her groin, and she wants to be an accountant." Jennifer Phluger, sophomore in LAS, has a sister who designed her own tattoo on a plaster cast of her back. The design, which spans her upper back from wing to wing was tattooed by a close friend. "Several people I know have tatooes which I think are beautiful, " says Phluger who respects tattooing as artistic expression.

There are many othe ATMs on campus but the lines at the Union still remain long. On any given Friday afternoon, the illustrious lllini Union hosts three snake-like lines of patient people. A glance at the pale face of one of these people reveal an expression of determination, a grimly set jaw and intent yet glazed eyes. This dogmatic creature — for he hath faith in a promised prize— waits, resigne and uncomplaining. How slowly the line moves, how much he must suffer before attaining his prize! So what's this prize, eh? Front-row tickets to an upcoming concert? A fantastic roller-coaster ride? Nope. It's better. These zombie-like people are in line fi (wait for it) CASH. Yup, ready money. The true pre-weekend desire of the bar/restaurant/cinema-bound college student. Alright, but why must they all choose the Union's check-cashing service and two cash stations, when there are four other automatic teller machines (ATMs) c campus (incidentally, downtown Urbana and downtown Champaign each have a mere one)? After all, "I go to Colonial Pantry [on Goodwin in Urbana]," Tot Insel, junior in LAS, said. "It's just fine; I've never seen it crowded." Well, for starters, the check-cashing service is an unusual convenience provided for students by the university. And the students certainly take advantage of th -i convenience, not only of its location but also its lack of the annoying fee-per-use of many ATM services. Even so, Fridays get busy for hard-working Grace Hwang, freshman in LAS and lllini Union Check-Cashing Cashier. Unfortunately, Hwang is subjected to frustration-caused mali by her Friday customers: "I hate when they ask for something like nine dollars or $1 7.35," she said. "It isn't that it's really difficult or time-consuming, just that they seem to purposely making my job that much harder." But the ATMs? Some, like Christine Heitsch, senior in LAS, are smart enough to "avoid them on Friday nights at all costs." But apparently su highly organized planning is not within the modest abilities of many a U of I student, for the aforementioned presence of other campus ATM does little to diminish the lines at the Union. And do each of these glassy-eyed money-mongers finally reach the end of his/her line and are rewarded for all that suffering with the green stuff? "It's impossible Insel said. Unfortunately, Insel's affirmation is not entirely inaccurate. Occasionally, extensive use of the machines causes them to run out of money. And natu disasters sometimes put operations to a halt, as did the 1993 bombing of the World Trade Center, which caused a central backup of ATM centers. Yet, despite the risk and the pain of the cash quest, priorities prevail. "What would we do without cash stations?" said Austin Victor, sophomore in LAS.

The year started off with many contenders vying )r the coveted late night title. However, coming out of the attle unscathed was a victorious Letterman. Without ever loking back he left the likes of Chevy, Jay, Conan and rsenio in the dust asking the question, What does he have lat we don't? The answer is clearly, talent. M ollege students enjoy watching Letterman for his witty, original and funny segments. "Before spending time to watch any other talk show I must know who the guests will be, but with Dave It doesn't matter," said Kelly Cooper senior in Finance. Letterman seems to have found his niche among the college-aged audience. His sarcastic and off-the-wall sense of humor attracts many loyal viewers. "I have always been a fan of Letterman. I knew I would never stray even with all the new late-night blood. Dave has the interview thing down to a system, whereas Jay Leno is still uncomfortable behind the desk, said Nicole Bugajski, senior in Communications. The other hosts, specifically Jay Leno are experiencing problems finding their own schtick. The student consensus is that Leno should stop copying Letterman and develop his own mannerisms and delivery style. "These new characters have no clue what they are doing. They seem to think if they (flPo 1 f le c s e story by Leslie Roth imitate Dave their show will be a success as well," said Tim Paul senior in FAA. However, in defense of the other hosts, they are all relatively inexperienced. After all it took a couple of years for even David Letterman to gain respect and establish himself. The real test will come when each host has had some to adjust to their new job and prove their skills. The truth is that Letterman has talked of retirement in the past. Hopefully, now that he has a whole new look and network behind his show, Dave will stretch out this gig. Otherwise, students might have to choose the best of the worst, Jay, Conan or Arsenio. -Jamie Long university student describes his favorite talk show host Many jdents still favor David Letterman over other major competitors.

Every October 11th the People for Gay, Lesbian and Bi-Sexual Concerns (PGLBC) holds a rally on the Quad to celebrate National Coming Out Day. This year's rally was met with cold and insensitive sho\ es, but the sincerity and strength of the gay community turned the audience's attention to their real goal. On the evening of October 10th. three members of PGLBC decorated the Quad side of the Union where the speakers were to speak their minds the following day. Later that evening, another group of students worked under the cover of darkness like busy little clemons to shatter the messages, feelings, fears and opinions that other students would share with the rest of the campus. The chalk writing that PGLBC drew on the concrete w as tw isted and edited into w ords that were meant to hurt the ga\ community The sign-- thai publicized the rall\ were torn dow n. .\n^\ those that w ere not remov ed were graffitied and defaced.

October did more to energize the speakers nd other participants at the National Coming )ut Day rally, than they did to demoralize >r defeat them. With the facts of the night >efore still in his mind, Ear) Barnard, senior n LAS, was the first scheduled to step up to he podium to tell the U of I how he felt bout coming out. "There are gays and gsbians on this campus. We are a reality, nd by coming out we will make a comfortable nvironment without shame," Barnard said. We now live in an environment where latred is rampant, and that is not humane. Hid we will make it humane with or without the rest of society." The speakers told the U of I about issues hat were as important as they were personal. Larl Vogel, senior in LAS, spoke about his eason for coming out in the hope that ome in the audience could empathize. "It aved my life," Vogel said. He then told bout how a friend from high school took lis own life because of the pressures of leing in the closet. Bill Van Patten, a nember of the U of I faculty, spoke about iow "gays and lesbians have to fight every lay to earn the treatment that heterosexuals ;et automatically." Michael Chaffee, ophomore in LAS, gave his opinion about ife inside the closet. "In the closet there is o much of your life that you have to ensor, and it becomes unbelievably difficult nd absolutely inhuman," Chaffee said. Students in the audience were pleased t the efforts of the PGLBC to explain what oming out was all about. "If it (coming >ut) makes them happy, than they should lo it," Jennifer Valdez, freshman in LAS, aid. Valdez and other students are upset hat society has hurt the gay community for o long. "No one should be in control of >ther people's lives," Valdez said. Other students were impressed by the lignity and effectiveness of the rally. "I thought that it was good and open," Hob Pitts, sophomore in Education, said. "It was refreshing to see people being open about their lifestyles, and it was done in a good format," Pitts said. "I was really happy that no one was cat-calling, and there were no jokes. The whole thing was open-minded." Pitts, like most of the audience that day saw the Quad after the Illini LInion Board cleaned the hatred off the concrete. The program stressed the benefits of the coming out process. Paul Entis, a Resident Director at Snyder Residence Hall, challenged gay and lesbian members of the audience to tell at least one person about their sexuality. Entis feels that telling others will be a critical first step toward creating a less restricted and more humane environment. "Tell someone, ANYONE, and say proudly, and unequivocally, that 'I am gay'," Entis said. Entis feels that once people finally come out of the closet they will not be able to imagine why others still choose to hide their sexuality. "Coming out means not having to hide anymore, and it means that now people will like you for who you really are, not because they think you are heterosexual," Andrea Anderson, sophomore in LAS, said. That is the spirit behind National Coming Out Day — that it will challenge some members of the gay community to create a free environment for themselves. The night before the rally proves how difficult it must be to be gay, lesbian or bi- sexual on the U of I campus. But the warm and sincere efforts of the rally speakers turned the attention away from the bigotry and insensitivity, and focused on how the gay community, through coming out, will combine its efforts and energies and successfully create the environment that it deserves. ASK THE PANEL As a follow-up to the rally the PGLBC held a "panel discussion" on Tuesday, October 12th, so that anyone with questions about coming out could ask a group of people who are outspoken on gay, lesbian and bisexual issues. Such discussions are a regular event for PGLBC. Their mission is to inform students about the realities facing the gay community on the UofI campus. The discussion was run by Paul Entis, Resident Director at Snyder Hall, and Wh i n ie Fink, Residen t Director at Weston Hall. About twenty- six students came to participate. National Coming Out Day 71 Forbes Fest STORY BY VI DA RIS1 LAYOUT BY KRIS MOSKWA LOCAL bands including Suede Chain, Soulstice, the Riverside BlueBand, 100 Acre Wood, Pink Awful, Paffindaz and Soprano performed on a stage similar to one you'd see at Lollapalooza. Students and guests ate izza, chips and other snacks. Some participated in a basketball tournament, while others carefully watched the gray, suspicious looking sky. A side show stage sporting entertainment attracted others' attention. All this happened on the grass lot at the corner of First and Gregory Streets on Saturday, April 24, 1993. What could this odd conglomeration of activities be? None other than Forbes Fest. FORBES FEST, sponsored by the Forbes Hall Council and organized by a troupe of resident advisors and student volunteers, attracted viewers and participants from 1 1 a.m. until about 6 p.m. Jack Techavalitpongse, sophomore in FAA and member of the supporting staff, was responsible for helping the bands move on and off the stage and ensuring smooth transitions. SlNCE people I had talked to prior to the event didn't seem that enthusiastic, I was a little surprised to see such a big turnout. The volunteers were great, too," Techavalitpongse said. Funding the Fest presented difficulties, as the Residence Hall Association was overwhelmed with requests for money from other directions. The support of Resident Director Kristen Oblinger, a principal motivator, and enthusiasm among Resident Advisors as well as students convinced the hall council not to abandon plans for the fest. THE RHA gave us no support," Steve Marciani, Resident Advisor and senior in CBA, said. "They didn't think it would go over well, but we paid for it, and it was a big success. There were a lot of people, even though it looked like rain." The rain was a concern of the many people attending throughout the day. "It was cloudy, so I don't think quite as many people showed up as would have otherwise," Ben Cruz, sophomore in Engineering, said. The rain held off until after the festivities began to wind down. This allowed for a day full of activity, despite the threat of bad weather. POSSIBILITIES of rain did deter those who had planned a volleyball tournament, but basketball enthusiasts, led by Resident Advisor John Koo, senior in CBA, let nothing bar them from shooting their way through a tournament. From noon until about 3 p.m., three on three double elimination games, each lasting anywhere from 10 to 20 minutes, were played. "We had prizes lor the top three teams," Koo said. "And we had a detent turnout, even with a limited amount ol court space." Al.lMOlK.M this was the first seat for Forbes lest, its success shows that it definitely won't be the last.

Public and private schools shut down, Parkland canceled classes, homeless people flocked to shelters already filled to capacity and traffic diminished to a trickle as C-U residents nestled in their warm homes. But there was no respite from the cold for U of I students; the administration saw no need to cancel classes and suggested we "use (our) heads and bundle up." Arctic winds of 15 to 20 mph whipped across campus, creating blustery conditions in which frostbite could strike exposed skin in less than a minute. Most students were at risk as they endured five- to 10-minute waits for MTD service or walked long distances between classes. McKinley Health Center treated 13 students for frostbite within two days. Despite the icy weather, most students attended Tuesday classes because they did not want to miss the third day of instruction. Parents and students alike were outraged that the University would encourage the endangerment of faculty and students by staying open and flooded the administrative offices with disgruntled calls. In response, University officials circulated a memo to professors and teaching assistants that urged them to excuse students who were absent on Tuesday. For those who braved the elements and attended classes, the ex post facto memo was too little, too late. "It's ridiculous for the University to announce this (Tuesday afternoon) because it's after the fact." said Nicole Weinstein, junior in LAS. And many students did not feel professors should make any special concessions for classmates who did not trek out in the cold. Dan Akers, senior in LAS, said, "I just hope they don't reteach the same stuff. I don't want to sit through the same lecture twice." That amnesty for cutting classes was short-lived, however, as University officials decided not to extend the memo to Wednesday because the temperature was warmer, according to Judith Rowan, associate vice chancellor for public affairs.

Assembly Hall has provided U of I students, and actually most of East-Central Illinois, with a wide variety of events for quite some time, and it does not look like it will stop doing its job anytime soon. Mr. Xen Riggs, the Associate Director in charge of marketing and booking, has a display behind his desk that tells of all the major shows that have visited our Assembly Hall. The display is a five by eight foot collage of 30 years' worth of ticket stubs from musical, theatrical, sporting and comedy events. Some of the big names include ZZ Top, Anthrax, Sesame Street Live, INXS, The Righteous Brothers, Ted Nugent, Tom Jones, The Chinese Acrobats of Taiwan. Fighting Illini Basketball and Bruce Springsteen. On the upper left corner of the display is a stub from the 1969 Rolling Stones show. The ticket shows a price of $7.50, and $6.50 for students with a valid I.D. The anniversary itself received extensive media coverage. "Two or three television news stations covered the anniversary," Riggs said. "And the News Gazette did a two-page spread, too." In addition, a good portion of Champaign-Urbana area businesses displaved congratulation signs, and Assembly Hall administrators were scheduled on radio interviews to speak about the 30-year career of Assembly Hall. Another big deal was the return of the H of I alumnus who developed the unconventional design of Assembly Hall. Max Abramovitz, a world famous architect who is responsible for such structures as the United Nations Headquarters Building, the Krannert Center for the Performing Arts and the Lincoln Center in New York, returned in March to one of his earlier projects. In 1955, Dr. David Dodds Henry, then University President, convinced the Illinois State Legislature to approve funds and permitted Abramovitz to do the architectural work. According to Abramovitz, he wanted to design a "totally functional building — one without any wasted space." That is why our Assembly Hall is bowl shaped, with a "round" in the middle of the seating pattern and not in a more traditional rectangle, with the stage at one end. Riggs says he gets many complements from performers and their promoters about the creative layout (continued on page 78) The Tony Award winning production, Les Miserables, came to Assembly hall in October of 1993- In this scene, Pontine struggles with a man on the wrong side of town. 76 Studeni 1 ife "Assembly Hall has great acoustics.

Assembly Hall 77 (continued from page 76) G f the building. And students are pleased with it too. "Assembly Hall has great acoustics. Being inside is a phenomenal experience, and it is architecturally interesting," Jennifer Jellen, sophomore in LAS, said. But ABRAMOVITZ's return was not the spotlight event. "One of the first major concert shows at the Assembly Hall was Peter, Paul and Mary," Riggs said. So it was fitting that the main event for the 30th Anniversary was a Peter, Paul and Mary return performance. And, the Assembly Hall promises to continue entertaining into its 31st year. On deck for the 1993-1994 school year are such performances as The Rocky Horror Picture Show, The Samples, The Nutcracker On Ice, Jerry Lewis... Unlimited and The U.S. Hot Rod Thunder Nationals. Students remember earlier in the year during Student Expo '93 when comedian Steven Wright, the 'man with the monotone," let students laugh for free. Separate from the concerts, musicals and other theatrical performances are the Fighting Illini sporting events that Assembly Hall hosts. In particular, U of I Men's Basketball is by far the biggest attraction. The Assembly Hall, in order to provide the best services for the athletes and the crowd, teamed up with the U of I Athletic Department. The two University entities established a division of labor in which the Athletic Department is in charge of ticket sales and promotion, and the Assembly Hall rents out its facilities and in-house services, such as concessions, crowd control, ushering and technical support. This "House AND Senate" relationship, according to Riggs, permits the U of I to run a multi-purpose (sporting and theatrical events) facility. This relationship is unusual among some of the big Midwest schools. "For example, Illinois State University's Redbird Arena and University of Iowa's Hawkeye Arena are strictly sporting stadiums. Riggs said. U of I students seem to get the best of both worlds. So we move into the 31st year of the Assembly Hall's efforts. That bowl-shaped, concrete and steel, multi-purpose, architectural experiment has given U of I students, and a healthy slice of the • East-Central Illinois market, a whole slew of opportunities to fill our down time.

The way it works is pretty straight- forward. Students sign up for a number, then the next day they look up the time and date that Assembly Hall will let them buy the tickets at the box office. If you can't show up at the time that Assembly Hall sets, you can send a close friend to do the leg work for you. The only rule that the Assembly Hall gets tough about is presenting a valid I.D. if you intend to receive a student rate. They accept cash, personal checks and credit cards. "I think it is fun to wait and camp out for shows, and the lottery does make things fair for everyone," Christian Bryant, sophomore in LAS, said. The Assembly Hall Lottery eliminates some of the pressure and stress that U of I students stock up on with school stuff. The Assembly Hall knows its customers and does its part for the general mental health of the campus through the Lottery system.

Assembly Hall 79 CBSU Buddy Core STORY B Y C H U A N - L I N ALICE T S A I LAYOUT B Y CAROL FRANTILLA Last year they put on Harlem Nights, which included a casino with a nightclub feel, refreshments and, for listening entertainment, lounge- like singers. This year, they still haven't got it all planned but you know that they'll try to present an even bigger and better all-out social soiree. The organization working so diligently to present these programs is the Central Black Student Union ( CBSU ) Buddy Core. It consists of only nine members of the student body along with a graduate advisor, Dedra Wright, and a faculty advisor, Tony Anderson, Assistant Director of Housing. CONSIDERING the massive numbers of people, programs and workshops CBSU organizes, they couldn't have more of a laid-back attitude. A passer-by might mistake their weekly meetings in one of the Clark Residence Hall lounges to be just a posse of African-Americans getting together to hang out. But looks are deceiving. These nine core members head a Buddy Program that welcomes about 530 incoming students and about 200 returning students each year. Furthermore, they are a group with a serious purpose, even though a majority of their sponsored events and activities appear to be just fun and games. "The purpose for the Buddy Program's existence is to help newly-admitted African-American students become acclimated to life at the U of I," explained Cheryl Daniel, junior in CBA and core member. The Buddy Core hopes to accomplish this by matching the new student with a returning student in the program. After the initial pairing, the upper classmen and the incoming freshmen "bond" on their own time. "Those who have once been in the same position at the U of I are building a bridge for those coming after them," said Anderson. The Buddy Program facilitates the bonding process by providing social programs for the Big/Little Buddies throughout the year. Some of the smaller annual events are ice cream socials and movie nights. Holidays also call for special events, such as Halloween parties. Then there are other events that don't fall into either of these categories, such as the Know Your Buddy contest, modeled after the Newlywed Game. The main focus of the Buddy Program may appear to be social, but it also aspires to achieve a greater purpose. "We want to increase the retention rate of African-American students at the U of I," said LaNelle Owens, senior in LAS and Buddy Core co-chairperson . CBSU does so by adding academic workshops to its growing list of sponsored activities. For example, each November they hold an advance enrollment seminar. Also, for the older students in the program considering graduate school, they organize a black graduate seminar. Here, the upper classmen have an opportunity to meet graduate students and learn about their experiences with continuing education and with the GRE tests. In addition, they sponsor panel discussions with African-American faculty and staff. "The panel discussions provide a forum to give out information to new and returning students," said LaTonya Thompson, senior in LAS and core member. "They give them a chance to network outside the classroom setting." With the Buddy Program emphasis on activities of both a social and academic nature, it can truly be said that it is a well-rounded program and body. As Anderson advised, "It is very valuable and important that black students get involved in the Buddy Program: black to black, buddy to buddy."

STORY BY TIMOTHY SHEA LAYOUT BY LORI SCHNEIDER The U of I has a lot going for it. We have the most architecturally daring sports/theatrical arenas. We sport one of the best defensive teams in Big Ten football. The twin cities have "America's Best Little Transit System", and the U of I ranked number seven on the former Soviet Union's hit-list. And perhaps more importantly, we have an administration that looks out for us. For instance, a while back the University felt that we were growing sick of dorm food, so they built the "Specialty Restaurant" system to provide higher quality food with a cross-cultural dining experience. STUDENTS enjoy French cuisine at R.O. Bistro's, Mexican food at the Mexican Cantina, big steaks at Don's, authentic Italian cooking at Italian Kitchen, seafood at Fresh Catch, African-American food at Soul Ingredient and vegetarian food at Field of Greens. In addition, U of I students can sample Asian fare at Lemongrass and pizza at the Pizza Parlor. LlBBY Buckley, the Assistant Food Production Manager, I works hard to secure a fine Northern Italian dining opportunity for students on Friday evenings in the Italian Kitchen. "I think that students should take advantage of all the opportunities at the U of I, and likewise, I would encourage students to try all the Specialty Restaurants to get the most out of campus life. Essentially it is eating around the world," Buckley said. Jackie Bruno, junior in LAS, works at the Italian Kitchen as a food server. "We do take the job seriously because we dress up in ties and a white shirt. It is part of the effort to look the part too, because not only do we serve authentic dishes, but we want it to be a complete cultural experience, with music, set tables — everything," Bruno said. Italian Kitchen's business starts in the afternoon when U of I student employees drop by the Forbes Residence Hall cafeteria to build the illusion of a large scale Northern Italian dining room, complete with tablecloths, flower arrangements and elegant classical music that rests over the polite murmur of students at dinner. After the room is decorated, the staff gets going on combining authentic, and at times imported, ingredients to yield dishes that would bring a tear to Michael Corrleone's eye. Some of the main i dishes include stuffed tortellini with pesto sauce, sirloin steaks, Minestrone soup from Naples, lasagna Bolognese with i Arborio rice and imported cured meats. For dessert the Italian Kitchen lays out a whole slew of stuff like cannoli, spumoni , ice cream and other "dolci" (desserts). After students take all this in, they can sit back, relax, digest and discuss the affairs of the day while the general ambiance makes them think of study abroad opportunities. STUDENTS go for Specialty Restaurants in a big way. Sabina Arora, freshman in CBA, said she has no trouble putting up with the line to get in the Pizza i Parlor. "Sure I have to wait sometimes, but the pizza is really good and worth it," Arora said. Erika Depcik, sophomore in lj Agriculture, said she likes the extra effort made by Food Service compared to the routine cafeteria food, it's a great i alternative and I think it is cool to treat yourself when the previous week's meals were just so regular," Depcik said. KlMBERLY Taylor, junior in ALS, said she likes the eats at Don's. "The food really is consistently better, and it lets us eat i something besides cereal," Taylor said. "And I'd say that the Italian Kitchen, besides being a fun time , is the best food in the Halls." Those are the simple facts, the basic bits of evidence that the U of I does worry about our young palates. On a more personal note, the services, privileges, extras and perks that we receive are a direct result of dedicated people who expend their energies to make this campus work. So the success of the Specialty Restaurants is an example of a more general phenomenon: the working resources and energies of people who care about the students.

Here, a scale model allowed developers to present one of their beginning visions for the center. h i siiulciit Life A Silver Anniversary S T O R Y B Y VIDA RISKUS LAYOUT B Y KRIS M O S K W A "Twenty-five years ago, a seed was planted in the rich soil of the Illinois prairie so that the human spirit could forever grow," said Terrence Jones, director of the Krannert Center for Performing Arts (KCPA). "Not only are we fortunate enough to have a performing arts center of this caliber in America's heartland, but we can celebrate our continent's rich artistic contribution, new works of art, and nourishment for our souls." The KCPA celebrated its 25th anniversary this season by continuing its commitment to all aspects of the performing arts. These included everything from operation of marketing and business to commissioning of guest artists to management of stage scenery and costumes. "Krannert is a wonderful place because it provides different theaters in which all types of performing arts can take place, from band concerts to celebrity musicians, plays to musicals, dance to opera," Ed Gadberry, senior in FAA and KCPA employee. "The facilities are amazing — it's one of the most technologically advanced buildings in the world. Foellinger Great Hall is acoustically perfect. When it was engineered in the 60's, the operation cost $28 million; today it would be worth about $100 million." The vast responsibilities of the center are organized into various departments, such as dance, theater and design. These departments report to respective department heads, who, along with a group of associate directors, meet as a board of producers. This board serves two major purposes: productions, including audio, technical work, costumes and props; and administration, which catered to the operational needs, such as tickets, finance, catering and marketing. The hierarchy also includes a staff of 70 members and several graduate student assistants, in addition to separate department staffs. "I see all kinds of people from the university. There's an interesting diversity in the people who come here," said Casey Garza, ticket office staff member and sophomore in Agriculture. MAKING the performing arts accessible to all patrons was a special focus of this year. A new student fee enabled the center to develop more active educational programs to promote a broad student outreach. Two specific goals for the year were accessibility and cultural diversity. "We want to serve not just the university, but the whole community. Krannert is a cultural resource for everyone," said Jane Ellen Nickell, Arts Editor. "We bring in a lot of the same people that you would see perform in a large city, and you can get from your home to your seat in 10 minutes, with free parking." A number of special services are also provided to make the arts accessible to the handicapped, deaf and hearing- and speech-impaired patrons, (continued on page 87) Performers get ready behind the scenes at Krannert.

"Our 25th season finds us celebrating the Voice of the Americas, vith a strong line-up of artists and performances that present a rich tapestry of the cultural diversity and contributions of the many American heritages," Jones said. The KCPA involves much behind-the-scenes action as well. A free tour of the entire center any weekday eveals the building's many rehearsal halls, studios, classrooms and shops for scenery, costumes and property construction. Each of these livisions is occupied by hundreds of hardworking students, faculty and staff members. "The 25th anniversary of Krannert has... given is cause for self-reflection.

Clubs and organizations advertised what they ha veto offer, students milled about :>king for what might interest them and different U of I groups performed. "Quad Day has been an annual event at the University since the 70s," said Babette Munson Hiles, assistant director of the Illini Union. "The Union coordinates the event and is one of the major sponsors, the Union, we deal with the booths," Hiles said, adding that this year nearly 250 booths were present. In addition to the Union, the Division Campus Recreation sponsors the entertainment exhibitions and the Illini Guides also help out. Quad Day means different things for Terent people. Many go to see what the University has to offer. "I go to Quad Day to learn about what's going on around campus," said Jodi rsson, senior in Education, "I've gone every year to see all of the strange, interesting and bizarre clubs that are here at the U of I, "said Jenny nden Eynden, senior in LAS. "It's interesting because there is so much going on," said Stephanie Brown, freshman in LAS. Andy Hertel, nior in LAS, thinks Quad Day is definitely needed at a school this size.

Jana BuDESELICH, senior in ALS, agreed that Quad Day is important for all of the information it provides. "I to possibly join another club that I know I have no time for in my schedule," Budeselich said. STUDENTS do not go to Quad Day simply for ; information, however. Many claimed social reasons for drawing them out. "I go to people watch," said Mike Kamin, junior in immunications. "You always see interesting people. " Some students go to see people they know. "I get to see all of my friends that I don't get see all summer," said Vanden Eynden. BuDESELICH said Quad Day is a stress reliever for her. "I'm so sick of unpacking that I need some time t." Gayle BRUNNER, junior in Agriculture, had an even simpler reason for attending Quad Day. "There's food there," she said. Many idents attend Quad Day year after year, and have had memorable experiences there. "Sophomore year, Quad Day is particularly ;morable because I met my husband there," said Maria Knight, senior in Education. "I was going to work a booth for I-Guides and he was )rking at the same booth." Weather is another memorable factor. "There was a torrential downpour on Quad Day my junior year and idents were running into any open building," Budeselich said. "I will always remember that." Even though most students claimed that they joy Quad Day and think that it is necessary, some did have complaints. "It's too crowded and hot," Brunner said. "It's like the Armory, except tside. "Another complaint involves the incredible amount of waste on Quad Day. "They should use a little less paper so more trees can be /ed," Vanden Eynden said. Others thought Quad Day could be improved if more were offered. "Free beverages would be nice," Persson d. Vanden Eynden agreed and said, "They should have more freebies." Overall, students agreed that Quad Day is a tradition worth eping at the University. "There should be more Quad Days, " Kamin said.

Shane Lammer, Guardsman of the 2-130 Infantry stationed in Urbana, keeps smiling while tossing sandbags near Kinderbrook. A bridge spanning across the Illinois River was closed in Hardin, II. due to a flooded levy on the opposite side. Traffic was rerouted, making travelers drive miles out of their way down the length of the river. From a Spring Break blizzard that blanketed the South to an East Coast heat wave that plagued the elderly and the infirm impant fires in southern California, Mother Nature demonstrated her brute force in 1993- While severe weather wreaked havoc from coast to coast, the worst national disaster in U. S. history hit the Heartland. RECORD-BREAKING rains and flooding of the Mississippi River ravaged the Midwest, leaving property loss and ruined farm land in its tragic deluvian wake. The mighty Mississippi crested and rose and crested and rose — again and again, defying predictions of when the devastation and the danger would subside. The flood forced thousands of Midwesterners in Illinois, Iowa, Minnesota, Missouri and Wisconsin to evacuate their homes and hole up in temporary housing in high school gymnasiums and Red Cross shelters. Drowning a stretch of the United States 500 miles wide and 600 miles deep, the flood inspired a network television mini-series of the same name. For some, the flood was an inconvenience that rerouted traffic and caused a water shortage, but others, particulary farmers, saw their homes, their hopes and their happiness literally washed f\ away by muddy brown water. Jennifer Kahling, senior in Ki LAS, was one of the lucky ones. Her hometown of Moline flooded, but her house was spared by simple geography: Kahling lives atop a hill. Kahling was even more fortunate in that one of her summer jobs was in a law office in Rock Island, the only one of the Quad Cities which had a flood wall. "The flood didn't affect me as much because I didn't \ g have to work in Moline," Kahling said. "My job in Rock Island did have a little water in the basement, but that was because of oversaturation.

ACCORDING to Kahling, Rock Island built its flood wall in the 1960s, and the damage to Moline and Davenport, Iowa, could have been minimized had those cities followed Rock Island's lead. "There was a lot of criticism for Davenport and Moline because the} never built those walls," Kahling said. "( Building a flood wall ) was either too much money or it took away from the downtown atmosphere." "They used to talk about how great Davenport was (to work in) because you could sit by the river on your lunch hour and actually reach out and touch it," Kahling added. "Now the whole town is under water." Although Kahling's family was not displaced by the flood, she said she held her breath as the river almost engulfed some of her friends in nearby Andalusia. "Most people (in Andalusia) evacuated, and (my friends) were told to leave," Kahling said. "But they decided to stay, and people living one block away from their house lost everything." Kahling said she was not sure she would have taken the risk of staying to face the flood waters. "It's hard to understand why people would be so stubborn and not get out and save what they can," she said. FARTHER south in Godfrey, an Illinois town northeast of St. Louis, Mississippi, the flood changed how Jennifer Waters, senior in Education, spent her summer. Back stateside after a year in Great Britain, Waters devoted a month to the flood relief before returning to the U of I. Waters said she spent most of her time collecting food and toys for children displaced by the flood and comforting people in Red Cross shelters. "Kids were scared. They got shuttled off to people who opened up their homes," Waters said. "They didn't have anything to do (but worry). We tried to have a play corner in each shelter for them." Waters also said she helped reinforce levies in other towns, but she gave that up to help the flood relief in other ways. "I sand bagged for only a few days because I didn't like it. It was really hot, and the National Guard was there to do it anyway," Waters said. "The National Disaster Relief Staff of the Red Cross was there, and they need locals to guide them on back roads — that's what I was there for." Water's home in Godfrey is inland from the raging Mississippi, but the town lost water for a month. At first, drinking water was contaminated because the pressure of the flood broke the walls of a water plant located on the river bank, Waters said. Once a dam in nearby Alton gave way, there was no water to be had. While not having clean water for a month might be considered a hardship, Godfrey and Alton got off easy. Other towns near St. Louis were disaster areas. "Grafton was completely washed out," Waters said. "You couldn't see the roofs, and you had to be careful of downed power lines while riding in the John boats." Like corn farmers in Iowa, Illinois orchard growers sustained devastating losses. "It was supposed to be the best peach crop in 10 years, but they couldn't get it out," Waters said. "The fruit just rotted on the trees." Flood 93 The goal is to reduce waste. As we go to school, work, out and about-we use up energy and create waste. As Americans we all know that a change of lifestyle is impossible. The alternative is to recycle and transform waste into use. Recycling centers exist for that very reason and our very own community has one of the best non-profit centers in the nation. Champaign's Community Recycling Center (CRC)j was voted number one in the nation by the First they seek to educate the community by running tours and giving presentations to schools and groups. They also help organizations develop their own recycling education programs. Second they have set out ambitious research goals. They seek to expand recycling opportunities and to continue to initiate new ideas like the curb- side service. Another part of their experimentation in setting up satellite centers that allow the non-profit group to cover ground like some of the large private firms. In general CRC seeks to make the recycling process easier, more convenient, and more economical. The third branch of their scope is the actual handling of materials and processing it into marketable materials. CRC is quite the "recycling center of scale" as far as volume of important materials. National Recycling Coalition. It was founded in 1978 with one purpose; to work to lessen the effects of waste. CRC accomplishes this by sticking to three areas of concentration. The real popular and political topic is plastic recycling. And the reason it is a problem is a simple matter of business. Logically, any material will not be recycled unless the benefit of doing so exceeds the cost. A simple and plain fact but when applied to the plastics issue has become a national menace. Plastics have various grains, compositions and strengths which makes sorting them a problem. In addition there has to be an end-user market in order for a material to be a successful recycled product. The demand for the various types of plastics is not constant or predictable enough to be steady. As a result, volumes and stores of recycled and unwanted plastics sit and wait for market forces to sweep by and scarf them up. Recycling shrink-wrap (the stuff used for shipping skids and light boxes) is an example of CRC's research effort, in which they find new materials to recycle and new markets for those materials. As mentioned earlier, anything can be recycled, if it is efficient to do so. This implies that there is a market for the materials created. CRC found a home for the shrink-wrap that would otherwise rest in landfills. Through their research effort they put the plastic back into use, as opposed to waste, in various other industrial uses. 41 textiles q^C ] rias recycled much of the textiles that would also find spaces in our nations landfills. Since our communities homeless shelters and Salvation Army clothes distributors can only keep items of clothing on the rack for a certain time, they are forced to trash those unused items. CRC takes the old clothes and transforms them into new clothes for the homeless here and in third world countries. 480 plastics 9,711 glass Next in the legacy of famous recycled materials is glass. Glass is a cute little substance, the oldest packaging material in the world, is six percent of all highway litter, and has the strange chemical property of a five-hundred-year life span. And the only real way to decompose the stuff is to crush it and then let nature fritter away at it through erosion. Get this- the first glass factory in America was founded in Jamestown in 1609. On the good side thirty percent of all glass is recycled. So we really have to deal with the glittery stuff, but unlike all the plastics that over- burden industrial markets, «lass has a constant and reasonable solution.

"We all have a pride and commitment to :he center. For-profit companies want nothing to do with educating the :ommunity or with the other out-reach efforts we have. If it means keeping up our cvork in the community than we really want to be non-profit," said Godwin. \s expected, the competition between centers like CRC and for-profit firms, such is Waste Management, Inc., and Canada's Laidlaw Corp., has its roots in national Dolitics. The Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) pushed a mandate reducing :he "municipal waste stream" by twenty-five percent into law. Consequently, Dressure from national and local activist groups made it quite impossible for local governments to ignore modern reality. So visible and energetic programs were nitiated across the country, including our very own in Champaign-Urbana. Then ocal recycling advocates got the real systems up and running. The short run narket failure had become too much to tolerate, and something was done. \s far as societies net benefit, the actions have been positive up to this point. But politics at the local level has gotten messy. As discussed there are trade-offs when ocal governments choose between non-profit and for-profit firms. CRC has an excellent record in educating the community, assisting in setting up recycling Drograms for other entities, finding new materials and methods of recycling and in : inding new markets. Waste Management and it's peers will not take the extra actions and the experimental risks that CRC and it's peers have gotten good at. In :>rder for the large, for-profit firms to act similarly the accounting benefits would lave to exceed the accounting costs. CRC uses more qualitative variables. Obviously when the EPA mandate pressured Champaign-Urbana to bid out a :ontract for the recycling contact, two camps emerged. Municipal contracts, as a natter of convention, are awarded to the lowest bidder so the decision was easy, rhe fantastic amount of resources allowed Waste Management, the largest recycler n the world, to win the bid hands down. In this case the non-profit organizations did not even have a chance. 'ifet, they are not out of the picture. They still are a huge presence in our :ommunity and they do not seem to be slowing down. For example their textile Drogram is only about two years old. And they still have much that they want to accomplish. If the commitment and pride that volunteers at Champaign's Community Recycling Center feel is the cause, than the effect is the thousands of tons that were recycled since 1978. It is that energy that will keep local, non-profit centers alive. And who knows, someday these centers may convince the public that the extra effort in recycling is worth more that accounting profit.

NlNA TRIPATHY, senior in LAS, said she would not. "I don't even know a tenth of my class. I have a small group of good friends, who I'll see anyway, so a reunion would not be a way for me to get together with old friends," Tripathy said. On the other hand, Jill Brown, junior in Communications and president of Student Ambassadors said she plans to attend all her class reunions. "I'm a true blue Illini," Brown asserted. In fact, after a number of years, a U of I class reunion attracts many alumni. They often miss the excitement of football games and the Quad. Perhaps a campus tour and a visit to a fraternity or sorority house will not only spark pleasant memories of college days, but will also ignite an interest in the present- day university and its more recent activities. Reunion Coordinator Adlon JORGENSEN, with the help of hosts and hostesses from Student Ambassadors, organized a 40-, 50- and 60-year reunion weekend for April 29- May f, 1993- "TRADITIONALLY, class reunions are held in the summer," said Shannon Kirkpatrick, junior in CBA and internal vice president/events coordinator of Student Ambassadors. "This year we had it in April, when the students were here. It better accommodated Greeks who wanted to visit with their houses and find out what they've been up to," Kirkpatrick added.

Class Reunions 97 Is Tb is A Petty Problem? STORY BY URBANO CHAIDEZ LAYOUT BY DEBORAH SOKOLOW When coming to college, everyone tries to make his or her life here a little more like home. This task can be done in man! different ways. Some students decorate their bedrooms, while others go to the extreme of getting a pet. With the bus* schedule of a college student, one might think that the time it takes to care for a pet is nonexistent, but many students do find the time. The type of pet one owns depends on both the owner's preference and living situations. For example, the residence halls allow only fish and birds, while some fraternity houses allow just about anything. Students living in apartments may also have a problem with their landlords' allowing pets. While the weather is still nice many students enjoy taking their favorite pet out for a stroll to the Quad or to Illini Grove. The Quad is a nothing short of a pet store during the summer months. While walking across the Quad on any given day, one can see anything from a dog to a rabbit to an iguana "I enjoy taking my iguanas out during the late spring and early fall," Chris Romans, senior in CBA, said. "They like the hoi humid weather.'" This can be a nuisance if you do not happen to be an animal lover. "If you walk your dogs on the Quad, you should keep them on a leash," said Veronica Aranda, freshman in LAS. Also, the factor of pets getting in the way during rush hour on the Quad. Hilda Bahena, freshman in LAS, said that dogs just don't belong on the Quad. "They get in my way and they smell really bad. They should be on a farm running free, not in the middle of campus where they could scare people," Bahena said. One of the main problems is the animals' droppings. "I do not want to worry about sitting next to jl tree where a dog has marked its territory," Bahena said. On the other hand, banning animals from the Quad and othei, campus areas would create a lot of unhappy pet owners. "In banning animals from the campus, you create a tension... yoij are bound to make people mad if they are banned," Romans said. Many students, though, are glad to know that they can' have animals on campus. "I love animals. ..they make good company and are fun to have," Carmelina Fesi, sophomore id CBA, said. "I would like to have my cat in my dorm, but the rules do not allow pets other than fish and birds," said Alice Lll Reyes, freshman in LAS. Aside from all of the hassles of cleaning up and taking care of pets, they can be great friends. Mark Brelje, senior in CBA, said, "I own a pet because he greets me at the door when I come home and he helps me with rrn homework."

This year, the Chief Illiniwek symbol, a cause : off-and-on controversy since the 1970s, spurred enough protest and forum discussion to lead to legislation. For the first ne. the Chief was banned from Homecoming parade floats. "We felt this was the most pro-Chief stance," said Jim Connel. terfraternity Council chairperson of the Homecoming Parade Committee and junior in Agriculture. "This way we are not lowing anyone to misrepresent the Chief." Nonetheless, Homecoming weekend. Oct. 29-31. was a display of pride in the diversity, showing more awareness of the growing cultural diversity on campus. Parade floats turned to other creative enues to reflect the Ellin i spirit. "I saw the parade for the first time since I've been here," Arne Gullerud, senior in lgineering, said. "I can't believe what 1 missed in the last four years. There were some amazing floats. One had a very cognizable bi-plane that impressed me. Obviously there was a lot of work put into it." Friday evening's parade ended its ute at the Quad, in front of Foellinger Auditorium, only to make way for the pep rally. This location was a change from e past five years at Assembly Hall. "This way if you missed the parade you could come see the floats during the pep rally," ?rnadette Connoley, Student Alumni Association Homecoming chairperson and senior in LAS, said. "It's outside and close where students live and hang out; it should lie more exciting." Float awards and the Homecoming Queen and King, Kel!\ >oper, senior in CBA, and Tony Tunyavongs, senior in LAS, were announced at the rally. The game itself, held on turday, was "really cold," Angela Chow, alumna, said. "That's the last football game I'm going to." "Well, hey! We finally ■at Northwestern!" Andrea Gaclberry, sophomore in LAS, countered. Indeed. Illinois beat the Wildcats 20-13 at Memorial adium.

The MTD added two new campus routes this year, the 24 Scamp and the 25 Loop. 102 Student | if e Split Decisions on Campus STORY B Y T I M O T H Y S H E A LAYOUT BY KRIS M O S K W A r ILLINOIS students seem to be divided into two camps when it comes to getting around. There are those who allow enough time to walk or plan out the bus schedule, and there are those wilder types who speed to class on bicycles, roller blades or skateboards. These two camps are almost enemies. Cyclists and roller bladers feel that pedestrians get in their way, while pedestrians feel that their lives should not be put in harm's way because a skater wants to set a campus speed record. CAROLYN SPERLE, sophomore in Engineering, said that bikers and most rollerbladers are "ruthless" as they weave in and around clusters of wild-eyed pedestrians. "I saw a bicyclist tear into a group of students as they got off a bus on Wright Street," Sperle said. "The crowd from the bus was large enough to form grid- lock on the other side of the bike path, but some students were trapped in the lane. The cyclist ripped into them like a bowling ball." Matt WAGNER, freshman in LAS, rides his bicycle to class whenever possible. "I have respect for the speed and efficiency of my bicycle, and I can get a few more minutes of sleep in the morning if I fly to class," Wagner said. He said it upsets him when students sometimes leap in front of him because they forgot to look up as they approached the bike path. THOMAS HaCKETT, freshman in LAS and an accomplished rollerblader, shares Wagner's respect for speed. He is also disturbed when "mindless" pedestrians trip him up. "I was rollerblading home carrying a case of soda. A fellow student did a walking sideswipe into me as I tried to pass him on the sidewalk," Hackett said. Hackett ripped up a fine pair of Levi's, but he proudly wears his red badge of courage on his knee. RlDING a cycle can be a form of relaxation, but may also be confusing. "I love a long bike ride on a nice day, but I wish the U of I would remove the yield signs that some cyclists confuse as direction arrows," Tami Savaiano, freshman in LAS, said. NELI EsiPOVA and Jennifer McCarter, both MBA students, do not care for the rueful "disregard" that cyclists and roller bladers have for other defenseless students as they hike about campustown. Lashonica James, junior in LAS, agrees that pedestrians have it rough. "But the Champaign-Urbana MTD system makes up for a lot the inconvenience," Martin said. I know the buses won't run me down," Mark Tice, junior in LAS, said. "They will not go on the sidewalk." STEPHEN DESPlERRES and Dimitri Carbonnelle, both senior exchange students from ESC Nantes in France, have observed the conflict on the bike trails and sidewalks. They play it safe by riding MTD whenever possible. When they absolutely have to cross the street or bike path, they have learned to look twice.

Specifically Academic Flooding sets back Opening Day As everyone should know, there was some major flooding this last summer in central and southern Illinois. The flooding had an impact on many students at the U of I, as well as many others throughout the United States. The Grainger Engineering Library, which was under construction throughout the summer, had some problems caused by the flooding. Construction was being done on the lower level of the library and the tunnels underneath the library when the last major rainfall cut loose in Champaign- Urbana in August. The tunnels were not sealed off and were flooded. Damage was estimated at about $2 million, and the opening of the library was delayed from December '93 to May '94. As most of the damage should be covered by insurance, students will not see any type of fee increase because of this setback. However, the full semester library opening delay has frustrated both students and staff. story by Ben Boeke Water from the flood covers the floor of the Grainger Engineering Library .

Well, you are not the first person to fall into the trap of stereotypical conditioning. What else are the words "model minority" supposed to insinuate? Are they the equivalent way of saying that Asian-Americans are the white- man's "teacher's pet"? In other words, they are smart, hard-working, quiet,' submissive, compliant, etc. True, there certainly could be worse things said about them as a- group. "Compared to the stereotypes given to other races, I don't think- beingthoughtofassmartissobad," | David Yang, sophomore in LAS, said, i So why do those pushy Asian- Americans keep fighting for a more politically-correct way of being viewed 9 The answer is as simple' as the fact that this particular' stereotype, along with all other racial generalizations, promotes attitudes within other races that are extremely negative towards Asian-Americans. For example, it engenders resentment on the part of the other ethnic groups towards the group that the white majority has put on a pedestal. "The stereotype puts us at odds with other minorities who may not be at model status, a 'why don't you be like them' attitude." stated Jeremy Bautista. junior in Engineering.

"Even though it may seem like ost Asian-Americans are jccessful, that doesn't mean all : us are," added Betty King, Dphomore in Engineering. The need to conform to the andard leads to overwhelming 'essures, evidenced by statistics ce Asians having the highest jicide rate in America. "The stereotype makes the dividual feel something is wrong ith them because all the others 'e doing well," explained Samira itsma, McKinley Health Center linical counselor. "They feel like ley have to live this myth." In other words, the Asian- mericans feel caught between a rock and a hard place. After all, their tinted skin can never be mistaken for white, but perhaps their academic performance cannot gualify them as 'yellow.' "We're a scapegoat from both sides — white and colored," continued Chen. "I'm tired of being in some sort of color-limbo." There are many ways to combat the stereotype. "Asian-Americans should be viewed through a non- Anglo-Saxon perspective," suggested Bautista. "Look at us through Asian-American eyes." Another method of tearing down the model minority stereotype calls for introspection. "Cross-culturally, we should all try to understand who we ourselves are, along with opening our hearts to seeing who other people are — what we have in common and the differences — and learn from each other," said Ritsma. In place of the model minority stereotype, Asian-Americans have many ideas about how they would like to be viewed. "We are people of color, but we are first American," emphasized Chen. The bottom line is: Asian- Americans are permanent additions to the rainbowof colors composing the American landscape. They can and will no longer be reduced to the myth of a model minority.

While that is a big part of theater, there is a whole hidden world that goes on behind the scenes that most of the time goes unnoticed. This is the world of production. Without production and designing crews, a theater production could never happen, a Production crews consist of set designers, costume designers, lighting designers and many more. The U of I boasts the third-ranking theater design curriculum in the country as well as being one of the only professional training programs in the Midwest. !a "I chose to come here because it is an intense program and you getto design actual productions rather than sit in a classroom and imagine what things would look like," said Vicki Page, senior in FAA. !a In fact, only half of the work that the students do is in the classroom. The rest of the time is spent in the design shops and in the theater designing and building sets, costumes and lighting. S. One main advantage of this curriculum is that students have professionals working with them in the shops rather than just faculty members or other students. The department also brings in professional actors and directors to enhance the students' educational experience. !3. "Having the shops staffed with professionals gives the students an added edge or advantage that will greatly help them in their future endeavors," said Jim Harris, director of the Design Department. !s. Another major advantage of the design program is being able to work in the Krannert Center for the Performing Arts, which has been considered one of the top 10 performing arts centers in the world. Krannert has everything that a professional theater has and more. It houses four different theaters as well as many design shops and countless studios. Krannert provides up-to-date equipment as well as a television studio. !a One of the most professional aspects of Krannert is the computer design facility. With this option, students can design lighting, scenery, and costumes entirely on computer. "Krannert has got to be the most incredible theater building in the world," Page said. "I love being able to work here." !=5. Within the undergraduate and graduate curriculums, which have been under their present structure for the past 14 years, students design productions for the Illinois Repertoire Theater, the Illinois Dance Theater and the Illinois Opera Theater. This gives students the opportunity to gain knowledge about many diverse productions. L3. Approximately 99 percent of the productions performed at Krannert are designed completely by students. Through this curriculum, students can earn a Bachelors of Fine Arts or a Masters of Fine Arts. With one or both of these degrees, students can go into a number of different careers. Students may choose to go on to design professional theater productions, regional theater productions, television programs, movies or go back and teach theater design at the high school and college levels. !3. "Eventually I would like to go on to design theater in Chicago and being able to stay in the Midwest and make contacts while I am here will really help me reach that goal," said Page.

It is designed to get you introduced to the campus, used to finding the essential places here like where to pay your bills, how to get call-waiting, what activities there are, how to deal with roommates, where to eat and personal safety. The students are literally bombarded with tons of happy, seasoned university students in bright orange t-shirts, with bright happy smiles that give lots of speeches that begin with: "So now you're a freshman..." La For most students of color, there is an additional day of orientation afforded them. It is the day organized by the Office of Minority Student Affairs. This day is filled with more happy, seasoned university students in blue t-shirts who have the very unigue responsibility ol trying to explain what it is like to be a student of color on the Uof I campus. There are financial aid workshops, budgeting workshops and tours of the African American culture center and La Casa Cultural Latina. L3. The Office of Minority Student Affairs makes its presence known the minute a student of color is accepted to this university. Sadly, students of color sometimes decide not to come to the U of I because of its size. The transition from high school to college can be especially difficult for multicultural students because o racial percentages alone. So the OMSA works at creating ar atmosphere so that multicultural students do not feel like "just a number. "They strive to provide a comfortable environmen for them. La "All students who come down here face increased demands, but when they are from minority groups they have even more adjustments to make," said Priscillc Fortier, Assistant Dean in charge of the OMSA tutoring services. "People will not stay and graduate from here if the) I J 1 \h o\!sa Tutors @@§ss@@ do not feel some degree of comfort." S OMSA hires graduate students who act as academic advisors and coaches for anything that comes up, from questions about classes to problems with roommates. This falls under just one of the services the Student Support Program offers. !3. "(OMSA) will match up a student with a faculty member and invite both student and faculty member to programs they sponsor," explained Natasha Posey, sophomore in LAS and office assistant for OMSA. "This lets the students know they have someone to talk to." Lei Another service is peer tutoring, which offers the students help with any class. !=i "On the second day at the U of I, I filled out an application and got assigned a tutor," said Julia Johnson, freshman in LAS. !3. Once assigned a tutor, the students start attending regular tutoring sessions. For example, scheduling may have the student come in once a week for an hour. They can then get help in a variety of classes, including the sciences, math, social sciences and English. In addition, the OMSA provides "walk- in" tutoring hours for any unscheduled eligible students. Compared with the alternative of paid tutoring, the OMSA tutoring really shines as a bargain. In fact, it is completely free of charge. £5. "You always see people at the Orange tutoring other people for $8.00 per hour," said Diego Bui Ion, junior in CBA, who serves as a Math 1 20 tutor. "That can get very expensive." OMSA sponsors everything from workshops in every area of student life to scholarships and job fairs. One personal testimonial proves the OMSA programs to be invaluable. John Bennet, junior in LAS, credits them with helping him make it through his classes, especially chemistry. !=i "A note to freshmen: use this place!" Bennet advises.

I, Specifically Academic a OMSA Academic Services Not Just Tutoring Just across the hallway from the OMSA tutorial room in the Turner Student Services Building is the "brains" of the office. Although it has a slightly different atmosphere from the normal hustle and bustle across the hall, this office is the home of many of the OMSA's academic services. Z If your academic problems stem from a lack of skills needed in dealing with college classes, the OMSA has devised ways to deal with this problem through their advanced skills instruction. Your study skills can be strengthened through workshops on text- study strategies, test-taking hints, time management, speed-reading and lecture note-taking techniques. Z If your needs require more than just the normal OMSA tutorial service, supplemental instruction (S.I.) may provide just that. The S.I leaders do more than the peer tutors in helping students in classes that many students have to take. They've been through all the lectures and done all the reading for these classes themselves, making them better prepared in helping you. Z Perhaps more appealing to those students eager to escape the classroom environment are the Multicultural Career Conference and the President's Leadership Program. The first is a job fair in which students can make contacts that may affect their professional choices. The President's Leadership Program can help secure a summer internship for students, the purpose of which is to help the student become a better leader. story by Alice Tsai IUB Gets a Facelift Students need more space, less hassle For U of I, keeping up with the times is not an easy task due to the vast amount of land that the campus covers. Therefore, many projects, some large, some small, are initiated, or at least proposed, each year. In 1 993, the ground was broken in March at the corner of Wright and Daniel streets to begin construction on what is to be the new I Mini Union Bookstore (IUB). Previously located at 71 5 S. Wright, the IUB has remained relatively the same since the 1940s. 13. Plans for the new bookstore began in 1986 when the faculty, the impetus behind the project, petitioned the chancellor to do something about the bookstore. As the university expanded, so did the amount of books needed by the students, causing a great deal of congestion within the bookstore. 13 More shelves and book stacks were needed and the aisles gradually became shorter, causing the faculty and students to worry about space and safety. Getting a book became an unbearable process of which no student wanted any part. Chancellor Thomas Everhart appointed Professor Bruce Michaelson to lead the Chancellor's Bookstore Committee. Eventually, the corner ot Wright and Daniel, the location of the old Davenport House, was chosen as the site for the new bookstore. LsThis new bookstore combines the old IUB with the Book Center in the lllini Union in order to offer much more, though remaining pretty much the same. 13 Robert Mindrum, Interim Director, said, "We are not becoming anything different than we are now." L3The new bookstore will have six levels, three of which wil hold school supplies, books and "emblematics," (products which have the U of I logo on them). There wil be a large foyer with a bookbag check on one side and lockers on the other, allowing for less congestion a' the entrance. S3. The new bookstore will also be home to the Campus I.D. Center, previously located in the lllini Union, easing the task of getting a new I.D. la. The project, which costs $8 million, was completely funded through University Bond Financing and promises a 30 percent increase in space. Duetothisaddec space, the employees will be able to attend to customers better, !3 "Because we commit to having ever\ needed book, the bookstore has become somewhat inadequate," Mindrum said. 13. In the past, employees had to just about fight their way through the crowds to simply restock the shelves; with the wider aisles, this, hassle will cease, alleviating some of the employees' troubles. It appears as though the new bookstore wil indeed make up for this lack of space and help students make the semesterly task of buying books a little less hectic.

When the lllini Union Bookstore moves, however, with it will go the Campus I.D. Center Will Bredfield, manager of the lllini Union Bookstore, said that the impetus for the move was the lack of space in the Union. "If you visit the I.D. Center," said Bredfield, "you will certainly see the limited amount of space we have to work with." The I.D. Center will soon relocate to the second floor of the IUB, allowing for more convenience and less hassle. In addition to this move, the I.D. Center will no longer limit their customers to students, but extend its services to both faculty and staff, offering them the chance to obtain an I.D. card. At the U of I, the I.D. card is a valuable item; moreover, a necessity. ..apparently, so is the I.D. Center itself. Story by Michael Kelnosky two construction workers help build the new iub in July, ground was broken in March to begin construction on the new bookstore that was previously located at 715 s. Wright Street. The new illini Union Bookstore stands under construction on the corner of Wright and Daniel streets. This project cost $8 million and was COMPLETELY funded through University Bond Financing. Illini Union Bookstore 121 The Wild Wild West Traveling on Wright Street is not all Fun and Games Going from class to class in the middle of the afternoon is generally thought to be a quick, easy and painless activity. However, the random migration along Wright Street has made on-the-hour travel seem much like an over-stimulating game of Frogger. Pedestrians, ! bikers, rollerbladers and motorists compete for the scarce privilege of right-of-way. Even the most alert, agile and patient person is prone to be clumsy and rude amidst the zooming, veering, halting, dashing and crossing. The difficulties for people who are physically challenged are obviously escalated. In response to this problem, professors of landscape architecture set their junior year students to the task of redesigning Wright Street and the corridors leading into the Quad. Is This year, students were instructed to focus on the needs of students who have visual impairments, an issue which has never been looked into before. Although there was no official mandate to conduct the study, Professor Cathy Alington said, "Students need experience in incorporating the requirements of the American Disabilities Act (ADA) into their site planning decisions." Is The class, composed of about thirty students, was broken up into five groups so that, in the end, there would be five unique! master plans. Students were basically given no guidelines, and there were no such priori campus studies to consult. Before planning could begin, students had to identify major problems and set goals. The groups conducted preparatory studies such as surveying! students with and without visual impairments and researching theories on how people react to environments. Field work for some students included counting cars to assess circulation congestion and walking around the Quad with students who have visual impairments to become more acquainted with their perspective. Is. Bob Rosenthal, a junior in FAA, said. 'At first I didn't think there was that big of a problem." However, as he and other students came to find out, the Quad is a labyrinth of confusing pathways for students who have visual ; impairments. It is very difficult for them to specifically identify where they are at any point on the Quad. Is The class learned that the problem is the lack of ground surface differentiation and disorienting diagonals. Variations in texture (grass, brick, concrete, marble, cobblestone, etc.) are like landmarks and street signs for people without visual impairments. Brick pathways exist between the Henry Administration Building and the English Building, but that is the only corridor to feature something like that on the west side of the Quad. )=l Assessing the problems on Wright Street (along the west side of the Quad) was a little more straightforward. Students found that the most dangerous aspect of Wright Street is that asi soon as a person steps off the east sidewalk to cross the street, there are immediately three or four obstacles: bicyclists riding by, parked cars and motorbikes, moving cars and motorbikes and buses dropping people off. In addition, maintenance vehicles often drive down wide sidewalks. Is After students did an inventory of existing facilities and problems, the groups collaborated on possible solutions for the preliminary master plans they presented to their professors and peers. While making a wide range of decisions, students' were allowed the creative license to do anything from planting hedges to rerouting traffic. Ideas for possible solutions included closing Wright Street to bus traffic only, repaving building entrances for ground texture variation, constructing barriers between the bike paths and establishing distinct pedestrian crossing zones. Is Rosenthal found that a couple of people outside the class "didn't understand why changes would be made since U of I is recognized as a very accessible campus." However, the students of Landscape Architecture 235 confronted quite a challenge in juggling safety, accessibility and aesthetic value. In any event, some people would really like to see changes. Perhaps in the future, these plans will be looked at by officials who have the mandate and funding to make a difference. Story by Lavina Kraujalis Layout by Kimberly Mounts 1 22 Acaclemii s "% ;.

S Dr. Joan Solaun, Director of U of I's study abroad program said, "In orde to maintain a competitive position in the world and penetrate the market, we mus understand different cultures." !=l At the U of I, the most popular country to stud\ abroad in is Great Britain, probably because there is no language barrier. However this may be changing as colleges increasingly promote overseas study in foreigr speaking countries. In business and engineering fields especially, more program; are being created as the faculty emphasizes the need for foreign language proficiency Since there is not enough gainful employment for the number of graduates entering the job market, companies can be as choosy as they want to be. Study abroad experience may be the bait that hooks an employer in a sea of resumes. Is. The U of study abroad office is one of the top three largest offices in the country and has strong links with foreign universities in Europe, Latin America, North America, Asia anc Africa. Although a student's wallet can be a ball and chain, reciprocal exchange programs are a tremendous advantage for those on financial aid. In addition tc exchange programs, there are other programs to meet the varying needs of student: such as internships, work abroad, and programs through private, independen institutions. Although most programs are a year long, there are also semester anc summer programs. The study abroad office at U of I is a great resource in that i investigates and does the processing for many different programs. 13.

Developing Leaders Enrollment and retention figures for African-American and Latino students were rising, according to a 1993 report by the Illinois Board of Higher Education (IBHE). "The trends are going in the right direction, but there's still more work to be done," said Ross Hodel, IBHE Deputy Director. In particular, need for improvement was seen in science and engineering, in retention rather than recruitment of students. "What I see is that great numbers come in and are weeded out through four years," said Giraldo Rosales, La Casa Cultural Latina Director. The Association of Minority Students in Engineering (AMSIE), National Society of Black Engineers (NSBE) and the Society for Hispanic Professional Engineers (SHPE) were organized in order to provide cultural reinforcement as well as academic encouragement to people of color in engineering. "We provide a support system for Hispanic engineering students by means of enhancing professionalism in terms of jobs or careers," said Ivan Favila, president of SHPE and senior in Engineering. ' think we're pretty well-rounded. We identify with our cultural group, La Casa Cultural Latina, but our focus is more academic." AMSIE formulated programs such as Academic Achievement, which awarded students points for taking assertive steps in their courses, such as going to professors and TAs. A cash prize was given at the end of each semester to the student who had acquired the most points. "Our purpose is to provide academic service for minorities in Engineering," said Wilson Terrel, AMSIE president and senior in Engineering. This year, the organization held a High School Visitation Weekend, which attracted people of color from Illinois high schools to campus for various workshops and an opportunity to attend classes with U of I engineering students. Activities for Black History Month, in February, included an address by Cmdr. Melvin Williams Jr. of the U.S.S. Louisville, the submarine that launched the first Tomahawk missile during the 1991 Persian Gulf War. "Williams is remarkable in that he is one of the very few African American nuclear-power engineers," said Lt. George Bradshaw of the Navy Recruiting District-Chicago. "Black History Month prompted Williams' visit to the University to speak to engineering students of color, but all students [were] invited to attend." NSBE concentrated on recruiting, retaining and graduating black engineers by a 'theme' strategy. This year's theme was "Back to Basics," bringing the focus of the organization to developing a communal network within the chapter, "making everyone feel like a family according to Yolanda St. Clair, NSBE president and senior in Engineering. "We have programs that involve tutoring, sharing tips on classes, getting students off probation and social activity," St. Clair said. "We're working on developing leaders, through academic excellence programs such as time management, test anxiety, problem solving and study skills. We put students in positions that give them the opportunity to shine as leaders," she added. "We offer support for black engineering students — they are guaranteed to be successful with the career opportunities and network capabilities available to them. It's a great society to be a part of." Indeed, involvement in ethnic organizations was beneficial to people of color, who have been previously underrepresented in engineering fields. Societies such as NSBE, SHPE and AMSIE helped students reaffirm their identity and provide advantages to help facilitate their success in future careers. 5HPE1 NACME \K) \< ademi< s vcademic Support iervices for Minority ingineers illustration by Tazima Smith story by Vida Riskus AMSIE Job Prospects for People of Color in Engineering The Job Opportunity Barometer of Graduating Engineer magazine, Oct. 1993, predicted "that minority graduating engineers who have a respectable grade point average and a broad resume should have a distinct edge in the 1993-1994 job market." "The most important thing now for any candidate is to be qualified... Once you get in the door, you have a chance to sell yourself. I think [people of color] have an advantage at that point, because a lot of companies are putting forth diversity programs," said Carmen B. Cannon, Assistant Dean for Student Services in the School of Engineering at Howard University in Washington, DC. A slow rise over the past decade in people of color graduating in engineering became a pronounced trend by 1992. According to data gathered by the Engineering Workforce Commission (Washington, DC), the number of people of color graduating was up 2.7 percent in 1992, while the entire graduating class was down 0.5 percent. Of that 1992 people of color total were 2,304 African-Americans (up 3.0 percent from the preceding year) and 2,663 Hispanic Americans (up 1.7 percent). The data showed the apparent advantage provided by the hard work of organizations such as the National Action Council for Minorities in Engineering (NACME) and, all in operation at the U of I, National Society of Black Engineers (NSBE), Association of Minority Students in Engineering (AMSIE) and the Society for Hispanic Professional Engineers (SHPE). These societies were recognized and respected by company recruiters, providing members with a network in the job market. "We recruit a well-rounded person whether it be a minority or non-minority. We look for academic excellence with extracurricular activities, especially leadership positions a student has held. A positive attitude is also critical, as well as team orientation," said Melanie Sanchez, University Relations Specialist at Air Products and Chemicals, Inc., in Allentown, Penn This positive attitude, important in a graduate, is fostered through careful attention by organizations for undergraduate people of color. Also, the U of I Engineering Placement Office, located in Engineering Hall, offers literature and information to provide students with as complete a perspective of the job market as possible.

As people mature and receive their first bitter taste freedom, though, they realize that the luxury of having extra money no longer exists, leavir them no other choice than to seek other methods of getting cash. As the economic statists dictate, however, the task of finding a job or receiving financial aid is not as simple as on< thought. Therefore students, as well as their parents, are forced to make do with what thu have, which, as often seen, is not that much at all. !a.The Financial Aid Office is available students and offers them the possibility of receiving a loan.&Craig Munier, Associa Director of the Financial Aid Office, said, "Borrowing by students has increased significan- over the past years." LsThe formula for determining need was modified by Congress for t 1 993-94 academic year, making it considerably easier for students to receive money bas^ on their financial history. Dr. Orlo Austin, Director of Financial Aid since 1981, reported tr about $26 million was given out in the form of loans in the 1990-91 academic year. Aus projects that the amount of money given out for the current 1 993-94 academic year will exceed $50 million, more than doubling the amount allocated just three years ago.!s."T costs of education have gone up significantly," said Austin. "Grants and scholarships ha not." L3.Students have had to borrow more money than in the past, with nearly 80 percent undergraduates and approximately 80 - 85 percent of graduates receiving some form- aid. laThere are some students, however, that do not qualify or do not wish to receive a lo<- yet still find that they need money. These students are the ones that seek employme hoping that they find a job that provides them with the necessary funds. Angela Baker senior in LAS, found that having a job limits the amount of free time that she could have h? for being employed takes a great deal of time from her. !s."The economy has made it hare for me to perform as a student," said Baker. "If I weren't working, I would have more time concentrate on my studies." !3.This statement captures the feelings of most employ; students. Every student knows that studies alone can make for a hectic college career, when a student is forced to get a job, it just adds to the pressure. iaOther students may, able to pay the mandatory fees set by the school, yet have trouble finding money to do of things. Tamica Lee, a sophomore in LAS, holds two jobs to help primarily with the cost; college.

This is indeed true, for colk is only a prep course for what lies ahead in the real world. !3As with anything, independer and the economy have provided Baker, Lee and the rest of U of I students with quit learning experience. They have learned to keep a close watch on their money, being can not to spend too much. Only through experience can students begin to comprehend complexity of the economy. Hopefully, the economy will someday make it easier students to receive an education, but for now that is just wishful thinking. story by Michael Kelno layout by Monica Solt I2H Student i.( onom) I^^WsW^g Ernie Perez Senior in Accounting Rich clruelas, restocks the ice cream cones at the garner cafeteria. many students find employment with the university', either in residence halls or in department offices.

The Board justified the increase claiming that it is necessary to annually implement "moderate" tuition increases to bring about more predictability. Linsey Brown, a junior in LAS and member of the SGA, led students in a protest against the hike claiming that tuition is being misspent. "If the tuition increases," said Brown, "so should the quality of education." SGA protested the hike after discovering that 22 percent of the classes listed in the timetable were closed even though 72 percent of undergraduate tuition was allocated primarily for educational costs. As a result of the protest, dates have been set for open tuition forums, thus closing the gap between students and administration. The efforts put forth by Brown have given students an understanding of how their money is being spent, as well as an awareness that there is someone fighting on their side. story by Michael Kelnosky — Coutesy of the News-Gazetu Linsey Brown, junior in LAS, speaks at a rally protesting tuition increases. the rally, sponsored by the student Government Association, was held on September 24, 1993- [£i!£jl£l!£l!£ll£j!iJ Specifically Academic Staying in Focus With the aging of the population, there has been a need to introduce the older generation to new skills. These skills may involve divided attention or dual-task performance. Art Kramer, Psychology Professor, has experimented with the attention spans of the elderly, using various techniques. "Our research involves determining the reasons underlying the change in memory and learning," said Kramer. In the first task elderly subjects were asked to monitor six gauges and to reset each when the critical region was reached by pressing a key on the computer. If they failed to do so within 7.5 seconds, it was scored as a "miss." The second task involved the subjects doing "letter arithmetic;" i.e., finding the answer to "A+2" (which is "C"). Kramer and his associates concluded that the older subjects did benefit from this training, thus improving their dual-task ability. by Michael Kelnosky Beckman Institute is located at 405 North Matthews Ave. Urbana. Beckman houses many UNIQUE facilities. Although located on the engineering quad, a diverse selection of studies and experiments are conducted THERE. Up In the Air ,s time progresses, so should technology. To help keep up with the times, the University of linois has provided a "second home" for psychologists; namely the Beckman Institute, ocated at 405 N. Matthews Ave., the Beckman Institute is proclaimed as "the largest and lost ambitious university-based multidisciplinary facility in the United States" thus far. la eckman boasts many unique facilities, such as a materials chemistry laboratory equipped 'ith a machine specifically designed to grow crystals for a short period of time. Other jatures include state-of-the-art laser laboratories and a center for scientific visualization, robably the most fascinating feature of Beckman is the flight simulation laboratory, where ngineers design and test equipment for use by psychologists working in the field of visual ttention. One of these psychologists is Professor Christopher Wickens, whose experience ombined with ambition has driven him to initiate many experiments throughout his twenty ear tenure at U of I. All of them have been successful, la. A current professor of psychology, /ickens has been head of the Aviation Research Lab (ARL) since 1983. Wickens has 'orked with many pilots, both amateurs and professionals, devoting much time to any roblems they have concerning visual attention. It is obvious that a lack of visual attention an negatively affect one's performance in the cockpit in fact, and is a flaw often exhibited y pilots. For this reason, Wickens has done much research in the hopes of eliminating or, at sast, reducing those problems that pilots tend to experience. "One of my real commitments i my research," said Wickens, "is to show how basic psychological research is relevant to veryday problems." This kind of commitment has urged Wickens to put a lot of time and ffort into bettering the pilot's performance. Is. For the last year, psychologists have xamined how a pilot maintains his geographical awareness over the ground. The most jcent experiment involves the development and evaluation of three-dimensional prototypes )f air traffic control displays. Wickens compares the performance of licensed pilots on a vo-dimensional plane to displays that simulate airspace and surrounding terrain. The goal f this experiment is to view how multidimensional data is represented through various leans. This experimentation has urged these psychologists to examine the features of irtual reality systems, la. While this experiment appears quite interesting, there have been lany other experiments done of equal interest which may certainly prove beneficial to irlines world-wide. "I believe," said Wickens, "that the experiments we have done here will ave an impact on aviation design by the year 2000." Although approximately seven xperiments are initiated each year, Wickens regards one experiment as particularly ratifying: "The experiment I enjoyed doing the most," he said, "was developing maps and avigational tools for pilots." Wickens therefore believes that these electronic maps will oon have a great impact upon aviation design, la The role that technology plays in the evelopment of navigational tools is a crucial one. These advances in technology facilitate le tasks at the experimenter's hands and make the achieved data more accurate, thus sssening the usual degree of percent error. Professor Wickens and the rest of the staff at eckman are grateful for these technological advances, for not only have they lessened the mount of time needed to complete the experiment, but they have also helped the xperimenters develop reputations appreciated by colleagues, students, and many others.

It is a multifaceted beast, dealing in philosophy, statistics, law, biology, politics science, mathematics, psychology, sociology and most of all, theory. Therefore it i mandatory for Economics majors to have a broad, unspecialized education in order to drav order out of chaos. Is.

Given the energy of the 1 99] Executive Board, the current Economics Club is indeed, the living extension of tradition. £ Their number one campus activity is the tutoring program, which has been redesigned t not only assist students in elementary classes, but also the unavoidable and infamou statistics sequence. Chris Geissler, senior in LAS, is the Vice President of Scholarship an his duty is to maintain the Club's tutorial abilities. "We have in the past been pretty good wit the Econ 102 and 103 students, but we were sometimes caught off guard when student expressed problems with the stats sequence classes.

Obviously, these minor problems are easily dealt th through patience on the side of the listener and e speaker. A willingness to slow down and explain e use of some words also can help greatly in >mprehension. "When I don't understand something, I just ask, 'what do iu mean?'," said Terje Tohver, freshman in Agriculture id a native Estonian. "Often I find the speaker is quite iger to explain his meaning another way." If nothing else, a sense of humor goes a long ay in alleviating possible friction in isunderstandings. "Of course, when you say the 'ong thing, everyone laughs at you," sighed Daniel orillo, senior in CBA and an Ecuadorian exchange udent. The best advice on how to deal with such nguage barriers seems to be that given by Dodds: ust let it pass and don't get uptight." e Foreign Language Barriers in the Classroom In 1947, the U of I established a separate group of English classes as a means to aid non-native speakers in their English skills. These classes are listed in the timetables as English as a Second Language (ESL) courses. Out of the 10 ESL courses, three are aimed at undergraduates, one for both graduates and undergraduates and the rest solely for graduates. The need for these classes stemmed from an influx of foreigners, many being refugees of their native countries, taking higher education classes. These classes were specifically created to help non-natives fulfill the rhetoric requirement. Contrary to popular belief, students in ESL classes speak all different languages. "You never know what you'll get," said Susan Taylor, Assistant Professor of the Division of English as an International Language. "In one class, I had two Israelis, two Taiwanese, aGerman, two Malaysians and two Russians." The difficulty of dealing with students from such diverse tongues might seem insurmountable. However, the ESL instructors use a student-oriented method of teaching. This calls for students reading articles and then using their language skills to explain their meanings to the rest of the class. The instructor serves as a coach or prompter, not a drill-leader. In this manner, the students learn to convey content and to worry less about form. Thus, foreign students develop communicative competence as a skill, essential in their daily lives at the U of I, and more importantly, in the United States.

It is unlikely that you will see the jitterbug, the mashed potato or the Charleston in full swim the next time you go to Joe's, the E-Zone or other popular dance bars on campus. At on time though, they were all the rage. Like clothing style and other fads in America, danc steps come and go and sometimes come back again, as demonstrated by the resurgenc of disco. \=l However, ballroom dancing seems to be something that is reserved fc weddings, ritzy cocktail parties and country clubs — places that don't show up too often o the average student's agenda. 15. "My roommate took ballroom dancing, but I always ha this funny vision of her waltzing around in huge hoop skirts like Scarlet O'Hara" Car< Castelloni, a sophomore in LAS, said. 13. Contrary to this image, ballroom dancing attheUt I is anything but dormant. Kinesiology 101 is brimming with students who feel like they wer lucky to get in the class, and they take the class seriously, sometimes staying late t practice dance steps. !a "It's a great class," said Lisa Nelson, freshman in LAS. "It's taugf well, and everyone is here because they want to be." Is. By the end of the semester i Ballroom Dancing I, students know the basic steps, or figures, for the cha cha, jive, wait fox trot, hustle and two-step; none of which pre-date the twentieth century. One of th inherent problems with American ballroom dance style is that figures are not always unifon throughout the country. In other words, a person who learns basic dance figures on the Ea Coast may not be able to dance compatibly with someone who learned in the Midwest.! One of the program's strengths, according to instructor Andrew Tate, is that students ai taught figures that follow an international style and are uniform across major studios. Ta plays upbeat contemporary dance music while instructing, and he teaches one step at time until the class is ready to move on. O. "You can be the clumsiest clutz and still pick l the steps," said Nelson. !3. Students don't expect to be the next Ginger Rodgers or Fr( Astaire, but they have a great time and a chance to relieve their brains from other studies. Unfortunately, there is simply not enough facility space to accommodate the demand f ballroom dance classes, a "It all comes down to money," said Tate, who is unsatisfied wt the poor quality and limited amount of space that instructors have to work with. S. In the pa the number of dance classes that were offered was substantially higher. At times, the were not enough qualified graduate students at the university to instruct classes, t budget cuts had the most detrimental effect on the kinesiology department. In additic ballroom dance classes are traditionally taught at night, a time at which clubs are giv space priority at the Intramural Physical Education building (IMPE). !=l "I don't want to s ballroom dancing die at the university," said Tate, who said he feels that the program facing a critical period. \3. In order to accommodate the demand for instruction, the Danci lllini club (a student organization comprised of more than 100 members) offers begmni classes twice a week at Freer Gym. Various faculty members have donated a great dea; time instructing students for free. In addition, "tea dances" are periodically sponsored the Dancing lllini at the Regent Ballroom in Savoy where the club holds meetings a practices every Wednesday. !3.

CHP students, coming from any curriculum, continue their four years taking small enriched versions of general education courses. At the junior and senior levels, they supplement their individually specialized course work with interdisciplinary honors seminars. !3 "Participation in the CHP has certainly forced me to take a wide variety of classes. However, it hasn't forced me to take anything I don't want to. Instead, it has given me an excuse to take classes that interest me but aren't required," Tom Insel, junior in LAS, said. "Also, it provides a small community within the huge university, making campus a lot friendlier and the school more accessible to me." 13 The CHP offers academically gifted students additional opportunities, rather than an alternative curriculum. 13 "What we're trying to find, and sometimes this is one of the most difficult things to look for, is intellectual curiosity," Bruce Michelson, acting director of the Honors Program, said. "The University is full of high- scoring students with strong GPAs and high school records. We want a curiosity that extends beyond a single major and narrowly professional goals. We have people who keep their minds engaged out of class." !3 Diversity, allowing students to explore areas of interest outside their fields of study, is a primary focus of the program. Is. "Being exposed to other disciplines enables me not to fall victim to the enclave mentality at the U of I of spending too much time with people who study what you do," Patrick McEwan, senior in LAS, said. S3. The program caters to this curiosity with outside-of- class activities as well. These include the Scholarship Adventure Series (SAS), guest lectures on varying topics held throughoutthe semester and Krannert Dress Rehearsals (KDR) for which CHP students receive free passes to view dress rehearsals of plays, operas, dance and other performances. Students in the program are advised to attend one SAS and one KDR per semester. 13. The Honors House, at 1205 W. Oregon, housesoffices,acomputer lab, library and classroom space and is the setting for organizational and academic activity. Interaction among honors students also finds its way in this conveniently located building. 13 "It's pretty beneficial in that it gives me intelligent people with whom I can have conversations about interesting topics," Chad Brinkley, senior in Business and LAS, said. "It also keeps me humble as, knowing some of the brighter people in the University, it is really hard to even think about carrying off an attitude of intellectual superiority." story by Vida Riskus layout by Peggy Christensen V ^ 1 I w Campus i [onors Program Jason Bum i u. i hi siiman in LAS, wam hi S mis mm HISTORY INS I HI < i on as A i i \ Hi MS.

Specifically Academic A Member's Perspective The Campus Honors Program offers unlimited opportunities to each of the Chancellor's Scholars. One of the most beneficial of these opportunities is the potential for students to communicate with professors on a daily basis. Because class size ranges from six to twenty students, the atmosphere is casual and conducive to professor- student interactions. Lively, as well as intellectual, discussions are a part of each class meeting. Students are given the opportunity to voice their opinions in the presence of experts, a rare and valuable experience. S3. Another benefit of the Campus Honors Program is the Scholar Adventure Series. Frequently throughout the semester guest speakers give presentations in their area of expertise. During the year, students were invited to discuss topics such as the dimensions of comedy, engineering ethics and gun control. Also, honors students are able attend dress rehearsals at Krannert. Performances during the year included: "The Skin of Our Teeth", "The Mikado" and "Hansel and Gretel". 13. Other benefits of the Campus Honors Program include priority registration for classes, a book stipend received by freshman and a waiver of out of state tuition. S. All in all, students benefit greatly from the opportunities offered to them by the Campus Honors Program. story by Kara A. Kelleher Give us a Break! Give us a violin serenade and bow to our lamentations Story by Lavina Kraujalis Layout by Carol Frantilla ■ &7 Think back to when you were just about to become a freshman at the U of I and imagine being given the most uninspiring, grueling, disheartening preview of college life — !a NOTICE: During the school year, primarily the fall semester, you are going to work hard and there are going to strenuous demands placed on you. You will have the right to just about anything except a vacation. You will be immersed in paperwork and the rigormorole of acquiring credits, requirements, legal documents and other specifications. We must live up to our reputation for being a country of workaholics! \3. OK, so this may be an exaggeration. However, toward the third quarter of the semester, some students feel like pulling their hair out. Since a fall break doesn't seem to be on the menu in the near future, it is very important that students find ways to relax from daily stresses, pressure and setbacks. 3. Megan Bates, sophomore in LAS says that when pressure is high, she has been known to "sit on the couch with a shot of Brass Monkey and blow smoke rings with a cigar." & Some of the more commonly chosen options include sweating out frustrations at IMPE, dozing at every opportune moment and of course, getting liquored up on the weekends for that long needed break from reality. Although there are workshops on managing stress, individuals usually accommodate their idiosyncratic needs in their own special ways. 3. Kristen Bell, sophomore in LAS says that she could sit hours watching trash TV. "Erkel, Full House, Saved by the Bell — you name it, I'll watch it." S. Aleks Jones, sophomore in Engineering, lifts weights in his home or rides his motorcycle to relax. "I practically live on that bike," says Jones. "I could ride for miles when the weather isn't so bad. Sometimes I ride south of towr by the farm fields and that is so relaxing." la. Now that the Armadillo salon has offeree professional massages at reasonable rates, perhaps more students will end up in downtowr, Champaign for an hour in muscle heaven. Since the salon distributed coupons and flyers, r has been receiving many more calls for appointments. "I didn't even know there was si professional legitimate massage place in Champaign until now, but if it's less than $30, 1 'I probably be spending my Saturday mornings there," says Sandra Mendez, freshman ir LAS. 13. Of course, some students are a little too good at relaxing and suffer for it when it's time to recall facts for an exam or meet a deadline. Parker Schectman, grad student if Engineering sometimes doesn't know where his days go and panics every so often when h« thinks about the work he needs to do for his thesis. One of his favorite ways to relax i; playing his organ and writing music. "There are so many ways to entertain myself and so fev ways to motivate myself without a disciplined schedule," says Schectman. "Sometimes need to relax from anxiety over how I relax too much." 13. In any event, college is for mos people, the best time in our lives. Sometimes we take things too seriously and need t< unwind or be a little crazy. Just having a beer with friends, listening to favorite music in; quiet room or taking a jog around the block helps students to regain some perspective anc keep them from hurling themselves off cliffs, real and imaginary.

Somewhere along the way, we learned something, even if it was how to pass notes in junior high without getting caught. And if we look over our shoulders, we can still probably see high school. Although some memories are more vivid than others, roughing it through academics is what eventually landed us at the U of I. S. Unfortunately, many students have trouble getting beyond the spitballs. Budget cuts have compromised the quality of primary and secondary education, and that leaves students who need a little extra attention out in the cold. In the past decade, many private organizations have developed and expanded in an attempt to alleviate the problems of overcrowded classrooms, inadequate facilities and out-dated materials. In the Champaign-Urbana area, Vis-a-Vis has been operating for 1 3 years as one of the best volunteer tutor programs available. S Vis-a- Vis, affiliated with the Children's Home & Aid Society, is a student-run organization whicri serves students from nearly all schools in the area. Director Quintin Anderson, a senior in CBA, and the 1 other assistant directors and coordinators have dedicated themselves this year to implementing structural changes which will improve this already top class operation. S3. When volunteer tutors come in to apply at the office in the YMCA, they are able to choose the subject, grade-level and time of tutoring sessions. After that, it is up to teachers ana counselors in the public schools to identify problems that particular students may have and request tutors from Vis-a-Vis for students who are willing to participate. Then, the Vis-a-Vis staff matches volunteers with students. Is. Before the first tutoring session takes place, volunteers are encouraged to meet with teachers to discuss more specifically the problems and needs of the students. At the elementary level, volunteers often work alongside the teacher in a group setting for two to four hours a week. At the middle school and high schoa level, volunteers usually tutor students one-on-one at least once or twice a week. !3. In thi past, coordinators called volunteers every two weeks to assess their situations. Now volunteers are asked to meet with coordinators in person and fill out an information shee noting any difficulties that they might be having. This opens up lines of communication allows for the program to be more closely monitored and gives volunteers a greater senseo belonging to the program. The staff also hopes to arrange meetings this year at which tin volunteers can get to know each other and talk about their experiences. S. One of th< projects that the staff is working on this year is establishing an orientation session for ne» volunteers. Ideas for the orientation include featuring guest speakers who would givi advice on tutoring. For example, volunteers would be given concrete instruction on howl arrange sessions, set goals and be prepared for "no homework" days and short attentio spans. In addition, pertinent social issues such as drug abuse, pregnancy and absent parent households would be addressed. S. Anderson believes that this is very importar because "one of the most basic ways of helping students is to understand the kinds ( environments that they come from." 3. The purpose of such an orientation would not bet turn tutors into counselors, but to give them more direction and to help them be more awar- of and sensitive to the forces that affect an individual student's learning process. \s. In orde to further ensure that students are able to get the most from tutoring sessions and identit with volunteers, a new program has been created this year called Adults and Childrej Together NOW (ACT NOW). This program is designed to pair minority volunteers wiU minority students. !3. By and large, the staff is concerned with balancing effort and nee* Since the demographic make-up of schools varies and the number of volunteers is limitew Vis-a-Vis is making a great effort to channel volunteers where they are needed mod Although needs are assessed primarily by the schools, Vis-a-Vis considers a scho district's percentage of low-income households and distance from campus in order tos- priorities. !£s. "We can do so much good on so little resources," says Anderson. Composed of about 100 volunteers each semester, Vis-a-Vis functions on a $5,000 budge! According to a 1 990 US Department of Education policy study, most college-level volunte j tutoring programs average 20 volunteers and operate on a $30,000 budget. Until II government allocates more funds toward education, volunteer efforts and private fundir will remain critical to the welfare of students in the public school system.

Adults and Children Together NOW (ACT NOW) was modeled after that program. 3. "We're trying to learn from what they have," says Sally Speer, senior in LAS. Is. Speer, who is the Assistant Director of New Programs and the ACT NOW coordinator, hopes that the program will extend to other schools in the future and operate strictly on a one-on-one basis. So far, according to Speer, there has been a very positive response from other schools who "quickly became interested in the program after hearing about it through word of mouth." by Lavina Kraujalis U OF I STUDENTS TEACH YOUNG CHILDREN EDUCATIONAL SKILLS SUCH AS READING. VlS-A-VlS IS A TUTORING PROGRAM RUN THROUGH THE UNIVERSITY YMCA. Holy Cow, There's A Hand in My Stomach Cows with holes in their rumen provide data to university students People always talk about the weird experiments that take place at the Beckman Institute and some of the strange things that happen at the Psychology Building. If that is all they think of, then they have missed the many strange events which occur at the South Farms. !3. The South Farms have one of the most interesting experiments on campus, and the Farms are open for people to walk through at almost any time during the day. Students can wander through the barns and look at the sheep and cattle, and, if lucky, they may see a cow with a softball- sized hole in its side. Actually, it looks like it has a paper plate glued to its side, with a big black hole in the center. !3. There is nothing wrong with these cows. In fact, they are quite healthy. The hole is a device called a 'cannula' and is inserted into the wall of the rumen, a compartment of the cow's stomach. The cannula is then closed up with a rubber plug. These devices are typically installed by a qualified veterinarian when the cow is about one year old . Cows reach maturity when they are about two to three years old, so a few different sizes are available to accommodate growth. !£L The reason for these 'windows to the stomach' is to provide a means of testing new types of food and different blends of grain that can be used to help farmers raise healthier, larger cows. The food is first fed to the cow and then is taken directly from the rumen, partially digested, and the efficiency of the food can be calculated. The nutritional value of the food can be tested by measuring the amount of food that the cow has eaten and by checking how much weight a cow has gained compared with how much it gains from other types of food. This is the best way to keep track of how different foods affect different cows. Strict records are kept that show the nutritional differences between the various types of food. The best food can then be found by maximizing the nutritional value and minimizing the cost. !3. The rather large hole in the rumenwould be difficult to close up, and thus cannulas are permanent for most cows. Although it may seem cruel, it is important to remember that the cannula does not hurt the cow. The partially digested food is periodically checked by a person who, with shoulder-length gloves, reaches into the rumen of the cow and grabs however much they need. The cows are not hurt by this process, and, in fact, are quite patient during the probing. The cows that are used to it hardly bat an eyelash (Yes, cows have eyelashes!) during the procedure.

You can get almost any flavor of ice cream, yogurt, or gise imaginable. There are three Delights in town, two in Champaign and one in Urbana. The workers mix the ice cream with fresh fruit, syrups and popular candy while you watch. It is then blended together and 'flipped' out of the mixing collar. While many customers like to watch their ice cream being mixed, many others occupy themselves by looking at the many different pictures and t-shirts that adorn the walls. What makes the pictures so interesting? You guessed it — they are all of cows! Not cow stomachs. but cows, none the less. If you don't have a special place in your hearts for cows, you can always just enjoy the ice cream.

They recall the many choices, the indecisivenesi and the long trips to visit the campuses. That is, of course, unless they are graduates fron University High School. Located just minutes from the Quad, University High School (or U High) gives its students an opportunity that other seniors would have greatly welcome About half of Uni High graduates eventually go on to attend the U of I, usually witho hesitation. a From the very beginning of their tenure at Uni High, students becom acquainted with the U of I campus through various methods. Since the high school designed to prepare its students for college, many students are given various homewor assignments which require them to do great amounts of research in any of the U of libraries although most are done in the Undergraduate Library. Uni High students, as pa of their academic curricula, complete their Physical Education requirement here, at Kenne Gymnasium. Therefore, it is easy to see that Uni High graduates who do go on to the U of; get to know the school several years before their college years. Dave Warfel, Uni Hig alumnus and a freshman in FAA, said that he feels that those Uni High graduates who goo to the U of I have an advantage over the other incoming freshmen, a "Since we ares immersed in the U of I culture," Warfel said, "it is much easier to make the transition." a H feels that since many of the Uni High graduates have already seen much of the campus an. have often participated in U of I activities, they tend to feel as if they were already U ol students a Lisa Micele, a junior/senior counselor at Uni High, has greatly smoothed 01 the generally rough transition from high school to college for many graduating seniors: many ways Micele coordinated an activity which received a lot of positive feedback: I tours of the available on-campus housing. This was designed to show the students tl different types of housing that the U of I has to offer, thereby helping them to narrow ihe decisions as to where they should live. This tour was later added to when Micele set up tour of the entire campus, which received even more response from the students. Studen were shown a slide show presentation which discussed the U of I and were shown the mai other things that the U of I has to offer them. a Although Micele has coordinated sever activities between the two schools, she notes that the students can also see the scho through other means. For example, students who are at least 15 years old and have a 4 GPA are able to enroll in classes at the U of I. The credit that the students receive in the classes can transfer to the U of I. Moreover, students who have a 4.5 GPA at Uni High mi be eligible for a partial tuition waiver, with the stipulation that they do attend the U of I. a I High boasts a superb academic standing among other area high schools, with more tl 99% of all students attending a four-year university. "At least 40% of those who apply to' U of I generally apply to the honors program as well," said Micele. There stude participate in "Agora Days," where students teach their own classes, something not se< too often in other schools. This is in addition to the many other educationally-bas. activities done at Uni High, a The array of opportunities that Uni High offers its students something that the student body is quite grateful for. They do have an advantage over other U of I students, as Warfel said, for they do not have the apprehension that otr. incoming freshmen generally feel. They generally do not have to go through the transition period as experienced by all other incoming freshmen, thus allowing them nr time to explore the other activities sponsored by the U of I. Therefore, Uni High should applauded for their fine efforts in helping their students to get an early taste of college I and a head start on their future. story by Michael Kelnos layout by Monica Solt t l i', I inversus IIik'' S( hool Many students at Uni High leave their lockers open.

It isn't like dogs to suffer from bird envt or cats to jump off dressers flapping their paws. Rodents and other four-legged creatures Q the animal kingdom probably don't gather to wonder "how high can we go?" Outer space the greatest unknown, teases, beckons and challenges us to look up and see what exactl" is out there besides the man in the moon. Fortunately, those who are not adventurou enough to propel themselves through space have the advantage of viewing the univers through sophisticated telescopes. Is. Anyone who takes the opportunity to visit U of j observatory behind Foellinger Auditorium can meet an ancestor of the modern da telescope. Although it is nearing its 100th birthday, it is by no means ready for the telescop graveyard. Is. Many U of I students walk past the silver domed observatory everyday withoi realizing that it is a National Historical Landmark, registered as of 1989. Much credit forth observatory's national status goes to Michael Svec, a U of I alumnus, who wrote a historic? essay on the facility before graduating with a B.S. in physics. Is. Much of Svec's essa focuses on Professor Joel Stebbins, who helped to revolutionize astronomical photometr before leaving the University in 1922. Stebbins performed lab experiments with photc electric cells which made it possible to discover eclipsing binary stars and measure th magnitude of Comet Halley. The cells that Stebbins helped to improve were even usedt operate Urbana's first sound motion picture projector in 1922. Is. Although the west we soon full of telescopes like the one in our observatory, "electronic astronomy was pioneere on that telescope," said Jim Kaler, astronomy professor. In the 1950s, the observatory we upgraded and electrified so that the telescope would be easier to use. Since then, th building has been added on to twice, but Kaler felt that "the charm of the building was ruine by the changes." !3. After the 1920s, the use of the telescope for regular intense researc tapered off due to technology. In order to look through the telescope, one has to climbt ladder and move the heavy apparatus by hand. Today, telescopes are computer controlle and automated for convenience and precision. Furthermore, the lens, which is 12 inches j diameter, is small compared to the average mirror used today, with ranges between 1 6 ar| 390 inches. S This is not to say that significant observation is no longer possible. / planets, clusters, double stars and galaxies can be viewed through the telescope. Just few years ago, it was used to measure the diameter of an asteroid, and no oth observational record of it was made in the US, according to Kaler. The astronort department makes active use of the telescope and the Astronomical Society's meetir room (the rest of the building is now a melting pot of various offices). !3. All students' general astronomy courses are required to have one hour of observation and once a mon the Astronomical Society hosts an open house. Audra Baleisi, a senior in LAS and preside of the Astronomical Society, said "The telescope helps bring people into astronomy. F astro-photographers and people who observe as a hobby, it is a great thing to have." Kristen Bell, a sophomore in LAS, observed for Astronomy 100 and said, "I was surprisi* that I could see Saturn's rings just like in the books. It was small but very clear, like a pictu on the lens." Les. Unfortunately, the effect is diminished by lights on campus. In fact, ma observatories have problems with lighting because most artificial light (such as stre lamps, store signs and head lights) is thrown upward instead of being shielded on t ground. This light is concentrated in urban areas and is reflected into the atmosphere. T whole sky is generally brighter over a town and therefore it is more difficult to see celest bodies. !=i "Lighting is put up without any sort of care as to what is called 'pollution lighting said Kaler, who is not too thrilled about the 1993 class gift of additional campus lightir. Indeed, lighting problems for observatories have been severe enough to lead to t formation of the International Dark Sky Association. !3. U of I's observatory has charac opposed to the sterile environments of modern laboratories. Since the observatory is nov National Historic Landmark, it is unlikely that it will wither away in the corner of futij technology. Increased lighting is a threat to observation, but the installation of shield lights can diminish this problem. As long as the sky doesn't come crashing down on < heads, students will continue to use our die hard telescope.

Its lawn statues, marble floors, wooded doorways and impressive staircases create an ambiance that contrasts with the Undergraduate Library's utilitarian/ hangout atmosphere next door. You can't just walk around inside the Main Library and sooner or later end up where you started. Students practically need a map to read the map of different libraries that it houses. For those who are unfamiliar with the building, it almost seems capable of harboring secret passageways, (who knows what can be found ii, the nooks and crannies of the basement). One of the most fascinating libraries within the Main Library is the Rare Book and Special Collections Library. Where else can you find original Medieval illuminated manuscripts and other collections that pre-date mass printing? If you've never been there, just the title might cause your imagination to conjure up image of decrepit books with yellow onionskin pages and cracked bindings, cobwebs and dusty oak shelves that stretch toward a colossal ceiling. In actuality, you won't find an attic scene where Father Time is sleeping in the corner with Plato's writings tucked under an arm. Located on the third floor, the Rare Book and Special Collections Library looks, well, rathe "library-ish" by modern standards. It isn't quite the neglected spider's haven as in " Beaut )■ and the Beast," with throne-like chairs and rich velvet drapes. In fact, the room is pleasantly clean, tidy and practical with the card catalogue, several glass cases, reading tables, terminals and tightly packed shelves. Frederick Nash, Curator of Rare Books and Special Collections, said that the internal features and lending procedures haven't changed much since he became Curator in 1969. Although the aura of antiquity may not be enveloping, the library contains extraordinary items that range from copies of Seneca's tragedies from the 1 4th century tc geological books of the Iate16th century. Previously known as just the Rare Book Room, the Rare Book and Special Collections Library has existed since 1937. Since then, the library has sought to acquire books in various categories. Most items are ordered from dealers' catalogues. For these rare books, the monetary value is determined primarily by supply and demand. In addition, th; ' research value of a single book may be considerably enhanced if it is part of a special collection having extensive depth and coverage. Although books make up the bulk of resources, the library also owns facsimiles and microtexts of rare books, and videotapes, manuscripts or recordings related to the collections. Each year, several hundred new items are acquired through orders, auctions or gifts, and today the overall value of the library's resources is estimated to be well in excess of $1,000,000. "It is important for research that purchases are made to build on strengths of the library,' said Nash. However, any librarian or faculty member may take the initiative to suggest items for purchase. As far as collections go, U of I has more 17th century editions of Johi Milton's works than any other library in the world. Other strengths include the Meine Collection, which contains items written by various authors in the field of American humor and folklore. The library is also famous for its Well Archive (items by and about H.G. Wells) and the Kaplan Collection of the Little Black Sambo. Nash, who received a Harvard B.A. in Latin Language and Literature, said he hopes that Martin Lister's 1687 ...De fontibus medicatis Angliae...Francofurti & Lipsiae (a geologica 150 Rare Book and Special Collections I il irai . i b u n place of publication. r example, the Rare el and Special llectis Library ; is imprints issued fire 11 in Ma, Ire 1851 in New iland and before 1701 Continental Europe. history) will soon come on the market and be available for purchase to add to the library's impressive geology collection. The Library's materials budget includes a General Research Fund which is used for the purchasing of items published before 1921. However, some money used to buy items for the Rare Book and Special Collections Library also comes from Friends of the Library, a fund-raising organization formed by alumni and others that gives support and encouragement to the U of I's library system. Since the rare and aged items must be handled like newborn babies, browsing and perusing through the shelves is not allowed. Specific request cards must be filled out to use materials which are then retrieved by the staff. Patrons must use the materials in the reading room under surveillance. Fortunately, the on-line catalogue has been available for more than a decade making it easier for students to take advantage of the library (for avid bird watchers who are too busy sitting in trees to use on-line, the library owns one of about 100 complete copies of John James Audubon's Birds of America published in London during the 1830's). Jeffrey Nelson, a senior in LAS majoring in history, visited the Rare Book and Special Collections Library to research Philip Sheridan's role in the Civil War. "I probably wouldn't know how much the Rare Book Library had if I hadn't used the computer," said Nelson. The disadvantage of preserving materials is that patrons must know exactly what they want in order to take advantage of the library. Many viable cultures emphasize oral traditions; the Incan Empire operated without a written language. Nevertheless, the written word provides one of the keys to understanding history and culture. The similarities between modern legal systems and the ancient Roman system illustrate the diffusion of culture over time through the preservation of written language. Just as books promote consistency, books also promote change. Book burning and book banning are events which exemplify the power of books to provoke revolutionary ideas. By and large, any book or manuscript has the potential for ending up in a museum or rare book library such as ours. Most Americans are familiar with the popular image of Abraham Lincoln as a self-educated man who grew up with a fishing pole in one hand and a book in the other. Thanks to people who are dedicated to preserving old and rare books, we might be able to pick up the same book that President Lincoln once held. (rail layout by Bob Gonzales Forestry Majors Face More Challenges than Their Predecessors Over the River and Through the Woods With all of the concern over global warming and talk of "environmental Armageddon," forestry issues have been stepping more and more into the limelight for our generation. On Phil Donahue and other various talk shows, "treehuggers" can be seen debating with "callous clear cutters" over land use. Who is right and who is wrong? S3. Some of us have no idea what is really going on in our forests because our conception of wild kingdom may be the array of plants on the windowsill, and these stereotypical extremes stay in our minds. In the modern world of convenience and concrete, many people have become far removed from soil and trees. In the minds of many, "roughing it" in the woods has come to mean camping out of a motor home on a rented lot next to a shower house . Nevertheless, many students from wide ranging backgrounds are majoring in forestry at the U of I and making the department strong. S3 Traditionally, the education and research of forestry practices dealt mainly with harvesting techniques such as how to grow the tallest, straightest trees for boards and other fiber products. In reaction to the soil erosion and dust bowls that were caused by poor farming practices in the late 1930s, the Illinois State Legislature mandated the establishment of aforestry department in higher education. Only about fifty years old, U of I's forestry department ischanging. S3 "Students face moredifficultchallenges as the demands of society become more complex" said Professor Tim Marty. S3 Not many people want to hike through, picnic or even look at a massive clear cut. Then again, not many people want to eliminate the use of books, toilet paper and other products processed from trees. It is difficult, if not impossible, to minimize or eliminate the demand for certain wood products. Therefore, students in forestry are challenged to find compromising harvesting and management methods which will meet the demands of consumers without shocking the ecosystem. 13. Classes in the program now place more emphasis on study of the entire ecosystem so that students will be better prepared to approach contemporary issues. At the academic level, forests are thought of in biological terms, and for the most part, the protection of resources and species is the number one goal. Surprisingly enough, no tree species has been known to become extinct due to land management. However, from overharvesting, early European settlers of this country came close to eliminating the Eastern White Pine. More recently, the Pacific Yew species was threatened after its bark was rumored to be a cure for cancer. 13 Professor John Edgington has been a part of the U of I forestry department for 21 years and said he is very pleased with the direction in which the program has evolved. "These graduates are the ones who will be working in Washington," said Edgington, "and when they get there, they will be better at communicating and educating the public." S3. Marty teaches Introduction to Forestry (which attracts one-fourth of its students from other colleges) in three parts. Students become familiar with the nature of the ecosystem's IS2 Forestry plant life, the manipulation of forests to achieve certain goals anc the utilization of wood in processing. 13. All forestry majors arc required to take Forestry 220, or dendrology (taxonomy). Even week, the class takes a field trip to identify tree species. Lab site! may be as close to home as Crystal Lake Park and Allerton Parko as far away as Turkey Run in Indiana. S3 From there, student! advance to classes such as Forestry 316 in which current issue: and debates over ecology and clear cutting are discussed ii depth. "Many people who protest against land use aren't informei- on what's best for the forests, even if they have the best intentions said Brooke Heser, junior in Agriculture. S3 Heser, who switches from psychology to forestry, is very happy with U of I's forestr program and hopes to go on to graduate school and someda work in government policy. Last summer, Heser attended a si week summer camp through U of I's forestry program in Dixo Springs, III., where she learned more about the history, evolutio and preservation of forests. 13 Today, federal lands are undc greater pressure to stop tree harvesting and to tend to th preservation and recreational aspects of forests. However, outr 4.5 million acres of Illinois forest land, only 260,000 acres ar publicly owned. When dealing with private owners, the stat mainly uses cooperative and incentive measures rather tha regulatory measures. That is why education is so importan Since its creation, the forestry department at U of I has worke closely with state agencies which give free advice to landowner S3. A year and a half ago, the U of I took part in implementing tri Stewardship Program at the Dixon Springs Agricultural Centfl which is aimed at educating landowners. Workshops are conduct*! throughout the state to give ecosystem orientations and addre: the importance of protecting wildlife, aesthetics, and water arl stream quality. During Stewardship Week, many U of I studenl volunteer to take children on nature walks and teach them abcB wildlife. S3 The career opportunities available to forestry majc are wide ranging. Students might choose to work with public private management of forests, within or outside the Unit* States. It has been predicted that global warming will for warmer regions to extend toward the poles. This will undoubtec have an impact on ecosystems. Heser said she has thoug about joining the Peace Corps and working in India where t climate changes with drought and monsoon seasons. S3 J Paletti, a junior in Agriculture, said she wants to do field work' large industrial companies, advising them as they face new Ii restrictions. This year she is studying abroad in Australia whe she hopes to gain a new perspective on global use of resource As long as universal weather patterns change, the field of fores will always present new challenges.

The Undergraduate Library gets a Face Lift Students inconvenienced by construction of exterior roof. Anyone sitting on the first floor of the Undergraduate Library during one of last year's rainstorms probably didn't appreciate the puddles of water which owed their existence to the many leaks in the building's roof. Considering that it is the only underground undergraduate library in the country it is no surprise that the exterior roof had seen better days . Out of thousands of students who tramped across the brick roof everyday some were bound to trip in between the deteriorating bricks. Many were outright embarassed about the proliferating weeds which had the nerve to grow uninvited out of the cracks on the plaza. Is. Finally, the state's Capital Development Board funded 1 .2 million dollars toward the renovation of the Undergraduate library. Construction began on April 1 , 1993, and continued up until the middle of November. The orange fences and mud hills went up around the pavillions as workers repaired the roof and installed new lighting, benched and folliage. !3. Ironically, students for the most part, had no idea whatwas going on. Carol Castelloni, sophomore in LAS said that when the construction was over, "all I noticed were a few more benches I'll never sit on." a Mike Techmanski, sophomore in Engineering was wondering what they were doing and why it took SO long. "I'm not sure I remember what it looked like before," says Techmanski, "but it seems like they just tightened up a few bricks." !=s. So much construction takes place in all directions of the campus that many students stop wondering what it's all about and only notice how inconvenient it can be. "All I know is that it was a big mess. It seemed like it took forever to finish. I avoided the library at all costs," says Amanda Rybicki, sophomore in LAS. a Perhaps it was only the students who twisted their ankles in the roof and who got rained on in the library who were patient throughout the renovations. At least, the students who have been around longer noticed the difference. Senior in CBA Tonya Danson was greatful for the work that was done and thought that before the construction "the place looked cheap and rundown on the outside even though you could only see the parcade and entrances. The bricks were unsightly and unsafe." \3. Some people can definitely see the difference that 1.2 million dollars is credited with. Dave Leitner, junior in LAS did not even feel that the construction was inconvenient. "The place looks so much better and the construction didn't stop me from using the library or going to class. " !3. Whether or not students had any clue, complaint or curiosity regarding the construction, many would probably agree with Joyce Wright, Acting Head of the Undergraduate Library, that the twenty-four year old underground building "is a unique structure and valuable resource worthy of upkeep." The serene appearance of the Undergraduate i Library in this photo does not reveal the greai amount of activity that took place around it lt> the past year.

Psychology experiments provide an interesting way to make money for students l sc> i' pei iments Participation in psychology experiments at the University of Illinois is one of the most interesting ways in which students can make some spare spending money during the school year without giving up much of their valued time. One great thing about them is that all one needs to do is sign up on one of the sign up sheets posted in the Psychology Building, and the experimenter will call back. 13. While psychology experiments are helpful to graduate students and professors doing research, they also provide 'easy' money for any students who volunteer, assuming that they meet any necessary gualifications. These sometimes take into account what hand a person uses more, a persons vision or even gender. In order to maintain experimental integrity, the subjects need to be tested for these attributes. !3. Psychology experiments vary quite a bit in how technological they are. Some of these studies involve 'paper and pencil' surveys, while others involve networked computer terminals, while still others use EKG readings. One study that was held at the Beckman Institute had the descriptions of different kinds of alien clothing on cards. The subject guessed from one type or another and was told whether he was correct or incorrect. The cards are gone through seven times, and the subject is tested for memory and pattern recognition. In another experiment, the subject is connected to an EKG, and his or her reaction time is calculated by computer. The reaction time is not only measured, but also what part of the brain is responding, and how different stimuli make the brain respond in different ways. Even though the data collection may be simple, the calculations involved can get complicated. The more factors in the study increases the complexity of the calculations. § Because these experiments are sometimes boring, subjects generally receive payment for taking part in the study. This payment can take many forms. Some experimenters give out movie passes, while others pay $4-$6 per hour for data. !3. When asked why she participates in psychology experiments, sophomore Angela Taylor said, "I do them because it gives me some extra money for relatively little time and effort." !3. "However, they are interesting, too," Taylor added. "One time I worked with flash-cards, and the next with EKGs and computers." 13. While most of these studies only take an hour or so to complete, some of them can take as long as three hours. Some are even carried out over a space of several days. !3. While these experiments take relatively little time on the part of the subjects, the data are invaluable to the researchers that run the experiments. Usually, they want a very diverse group of people from which to collect data. This helps to eliminate environmental factors in certain groups of people. These experiments also give students here a small amount of easy income.

In the past, it was common practice to place people with disabilities in segregated institutions where they were isolated throughout their lives. Often their capabilities and chances for improvement were underestimated by caretakers and medical professionals. When hospitalized children and adults encountered other people without disabilities, common public misconceptions usually prevented them from being accepted as individuals with much to offer mainstream society. S Now, people with disabilities are dispelling myths and prejudices as they demonstrate their capabilities in many facets of life. Some individuals are reaching large audiencies by exhibiting their talents in the entertainment industry. MarleeMatlin, an actress with a hearing impairment has won prestigious awards for her performances in films. The popular show "Life Goes On," which was first aired only a few years ago, presents a character with Down Syndrome played by an actor who actually has the disability. In addition to the entertainment industry, other areas of the work force have been opening up more and more to people with disabilities. Max Clelland, a man with physical disabilities, served as Director of Veterans Affairs under the Carter administration in the 1970s. !3. Along with changing points of view, persons with disabilities have benefitted by new legislation that has been passed within the last twenty years. The Education of All Handicapped Children Act which passed in 1975 and started to take affect in the early 1980s mandated that an Individualized Education Plan (IEP) be provided for each child with a disability. The act also promotes the practice of creating the least restrictive environments for these students, which means placing them in an educational setting most appropriate for their specific needs without being too protective. For example, a child should not be placed in a segregated classroom if he will be able to succeed in a regular classroom. !5. By exposing students early on to different populations in regular classroom settings, it is hoped that greater understanding, cooperation and inclusion will occur in social settings. With the dismantling of hospitalization, people with disabilities are coming to be identified as students, clients and people rather than patients. According to Paula Kohler, visiting associate professor and associate director of the Transition Institute at U of I, "The community as a whole has become more flexible and accepting of people with disabilities." 5 This change has greatly affected the kind of academic study and training that students receive in the field of education. Considering thatthe U of I faculty pioneered the promotion of inclusion policies at the federal level, it is no surprise that students receive a top-notch education. U of I graduates are prepared forthe increasing diversity of social environments. Ls. The graduate programs at U of I allow students to concentrate in areas of early childhood (birth to five years), mild disabilities (such as learning disabilities and mild mental retardation), moderate to severe disabilities (such as more severe mental retardation and multiple disabilities), and transition to post-secondary environments. The undergraduate programs focus on moderate and severe disabilities. !3. All junior and senior students must take an education practicum which includes a weekly seminar on elementary and special education as well as 10-20 hours of student teaching per week. Students must also take about 13 hours of additional course work. !£5. Students graduating with a BA receive a teaching endorsement which allows them to teach students from three to 21 years of age who have moderate to severe disabilities. The reputation of U of I's program and the great demand for special education teachers have allowed graduates to experience almost 100 percent career placement. Lej.

For 1993-94, many Fighting Illini teams were undergoing changes at the coaching level which changed the way they put effort in. For the wrestling team, new head coach Mark Johnson turned practices into more intense workouts than it had been used to. The results were fantastic. With the more vigorous workouts came results. The team had their best record in 32 years. Both gymnastics teams underwent coaching changes over the year. Former head coach Yoshi Hayasaki became the gymnastics coordina- tor. Don Osborne was promoted from an assistant coach into the head men's team job. Lynn Crane came in from Florida to take over the reins of the women's program. Osborne has negotiated a more chal- lenging schedule for his squad in order to make them more competi- tive. Crane is asking her Illini to put in more at the fitness level than ever before. Head coach Jim Lutz was hired this season as the head of the swim- ming program. The women are now the only swimmers on campus with the removal of the men's program. Lutz is hoping the university puts its fair share into the development of the program. Finally, the men's tennis team saw Craig Tiley become its head coach. He is asking his team to put in more at the competitive level, as he has added more tourneys to give the team more experience. Some of the more popular teams put their hearts into their sports, only to not have the results they would have liked. The football team gave it their all in come-from-behind victories at Michigan, and at home against Minnesota. Early season losses, however, made for a disap- pointing year, as the team failed to qualify for a bowl game. Volley- ball, as well, felt the sting of early losses. Despite a pre-season rank- ing of Number Four nationally, the spikers only managed a third place Big Ten finish and only advanced one round in the NCAA Tournament. For the Fighting Illini teams, their payoff comes at the end of the sea son, because what they put in to it is what thev get out. The satifaction comes at the end of the year because, our student-athletes know that all the practice they put in helps them to play*5£he game an play it well at the Big Ten level.

Illinois began the campaign with three con- secutive losses, won five of their next six and dropped the last two games of the season. Overall, the team finished 5-6, falling one win short of qualifying for a bowl game. For the first time since the 1987 season, the Illini gridders stayed at home during the postseason, but the blame for that outcome did not necessarily lie with the team. Losses against Arizona and Oregon were a result of poor officiating, and the Illini later received two successive apologies from the Big Ten. De- spite the acknowledgment of the bad calls, the final scores still stood. Had the Illini received these breaks, they would have finished the sea- son 7-4 and qualified easily for a bowl game. The season started with redshirt freshman Scott Weaver calling the signals. Weaver's de- but was a rocky one as the Illini dropped a 31-3 decision to the University of Missouri Tigers. The Illini were picked apart by junior quarter- back Jeff Handy, who completed 20-30 passes for 281 yards. The Illini defense had little success stopping Handy and the Mizzou offense all afternoon. Coach Tepper was quite displeased with his team's performance. "I was bit- terly disappointed with the production of our defense," he said. "Perhaps we'll look back on it and say Handy was that good, but I really hoped that this defense would have caused him more trouble than we did." Following the disappointing loss in Columbia, the Illini battled the 15th-ranked Uni- versity of Arizona Wildcats at Memorial Stadium. The Wild- cats featured their "desert swarm" defense that created problems for the Illini all after- noon.

Unfortu- nately for Illinois, the offense scored just once and allowed the Wildcats' defense to score 16 points on the home team's miscues. With the ineffective- ness of the kicking game and an inability to execute its two minute- offense at the end of the game, Illinois could not over- come the Wildcats. The result was a 16- ll loss After a tough loss to Ari- zona, the Mini had to go up against another tough PA< Id foe, the l University of ( )regon, In this game, the fans saw a i hanging of the guard, as sophomore Johnny Johnson replaced an inef- fective Weaver as quarterback. Johnson took over in the second quarter and led the Mini to a touchdown that tied the game at 7-7. After tw d Oregon field goals, Johnson took Illinois deep into Oregon territory late in the game, onh to turn the ball over on downs. This game also featured a controversial call. With the llini trailing 10-7, rush linebacker Simeon Rice stripped an Oregon running back ot the ball and ran in for what looked like an apparent touchdown and 13-10 lead. 1 low e\ er the offi- cials ruled that the running ba< k's forward progress had stopped, negating the score.

Senior Kevin Jackson and freshman Ty Douthard rushed for 125 and 77 yards, respectively. Johnson was pleased with the performance of the running backs. "They ran with reckless abandon. They just run hard and give it their best shot," he said. "Those guys stepped up with Clinton Lynch out." The taste of success was short lived as Ohio State de- feated Illinois 20-12 the next week in Champaign. The of- fense could muster only four Chris Richardson field goals in the loss. The Illini defense was stellar for the fourth consecu- tive game, but it was not enough to stop the Buckeyes from breaking a five-game los- ing streak against the Illini. Illinois followed the demor- alizing loss to Ohio State with a 49-3 pounding of the Iowa Hawkeyes. The Illini were led by a balanced running and passing attack combined with a very stingy defense. Coach Tepper was quite pleased with his team's performance against the Hawkeyes. "From the very start, we threw the ball with some success and we ran the ball well," Tepper said. "Both Clinton Lynch and Ty Douthard ran the ball extremely well." The following week saw one of the most ex- citing games in Illini history. For the first time since 1983, Illinois defeated Michigan, and it was the first Illini victory in Ann Arbor since 1966. Jim Klien's 18 yard touchdown reception from Johnson with :34 left on 4th down and 6 yards to go gave the Illini a miraculous 24-21 victory over the Wolverines. Johnson and Klein's heroics were set up by a Simeon Rice fumble recovery with 1:30 left in the game. On Homecoming, the Illini broke a two-year losing streak against Northwestern, defeating the Wildcats 20-13. The Illini defense kept the Wildcats high powered offense in check while the offense was just good enough to push the Illini past the Wildcats. The victory evened the Illini's mark at 4-4. The following week on Dad's Day, Illinois defeated the Minnesota Golden Gophers 23-20 in miraculous fashion. Down 20-9 with 4:30 left in the game, the Illini scored two late touch- downs to overcome Minnesota, 23-20. The game-winning score, a 25-yard screen pass from Johnson to Douthard, capped an 87-yard drive that took just under a minute. Illinois overcame five Johnson interceptions to beat the Gophers and raise its record to 5-4. With thoughts of roses in mind, the Illini Football 171 Many lllini fans braved uncertain elements to see the team. Some even went to extremes.

Illinois spotted the Nittany Lions a 28-0 lead in the first half. After cutting the deficit to 28-14 late in the third quarter, Illinois squandered several chances to get closer to Penn State. Nine Penn State sacks were too much for the II- lini to overcome. "We dug ourselves a terrible hole. You can't give Penn State a 28-point spot and win very often," Coach Tepper said. Although the Rose Bowl was out of reach, Illi- nois battled the Wisconsin Badgers in the season fi- nale, knowing that a victory would most likely cata- pult them into a bowl game. Yet, the Wisconsin run- ning attack was too much as the Badgers ran over the Illini, 35-10. All afternoon, the Wisconsin offen- sive attack punished the Illini defense. This marked the Illini's worst home loss since a 54-28 drubbing at the hands of Iowa in 1990. The 1993 campaign was one of peaks and valleys. Overall, Illinois lost two games that were due to poor officiating, played five teams that finished in the top 15 in the country and changed quarterbacks in the course of the season. Even with all of this, the squad fell just one game short of qualifying for a bowl game. With the entire defense and most of the of- fense returning next year, along with a great recruiting class and seven home games, the fans in Champaign and Urbana are smelling roses.

She missed most of the 1992 season with a foot injury. Junior Kathleen Shannon pops a set. She was named the 1993 Mini/Pepsi Classic MVP. Coming off of a 30-win season and a regional final appearance in which the team lost to Stanford, expectations were high in Champaign for an encore performance by the women's volleyball team. Although head coach Mike Hebert's squad did put together a solid season, preseason goals and expectations fell short for the volleyball squad. Overall, the team finished at 18-13, good for third place in the Big Ten. The season disap- pointedly ended with a loss to the Colorado Lady Buffaloes in the second round of the NCAA tournament. Even though the Fighting Illini made it to the NCAA tournament, Coach Hebert did not feel that his team accomplished all of their goals. "We finished up with a pretty decent record and a good finish in the confer- ence. Throughout the course of the season, we played a really tough schedule which kept us competitive for most of the season," "At times, we showed signs of being a really great team- but we were just not consistent enough. There were nearly 1 /2 dozen matches in which we didn't play that well. This was re- ally suprising and frustrating for the squad," Coach Hebert said. Going in to next season, Coach Hebert will have to deal with many new faces on the team. Five seniors will be graduating from the 1993 squad and there is another player that will be transferring to the University of California. Half of the team is returning while the other half of the squad will be brand new. In es- sence, Coach Hebert will have to replace a lot of peel from this year's 18-13 squad. Although this was an up and down campaign for the women's volleyball team and Coach Hebert, they did possess a couple of strengths that he was pleased with. "Offen- sively, we were very good at times. We were a big and physical team," "When we passed the ball, we were as good offensively as anybody. We just had trouble doing these things on a con- sistent basis, which was indicative of our final record," Coach Hebert said. Coach Hebert was not the only individual who was somewhat disappointed with the play of the squad in 1993. Amy Jones was one player on the women's volleyball squad who was not particularly happy with the overall performance of the 1993 volleyball team. "Coming into the season, we has a great deal of expectations. We seemed to letdown everybody, because of the performance of this season. But more importantly, we let down ourselves," "We had a great 1992 and expected just as many great accomplishments out of 1993. Un- fortunately, it just didn't work out how we planned. We expected to build on 1992, but it didn't happen," Jones said. After an up and down regular season, the Fighting Illini were given an invitation to the NCAA tournament. Their 17-12 regular season mark combined with a tough schedule was enough to put Illinois in postseason play. Un- Shannon Sets again.

Women's Volleyball 175 like last year, the women's vol- leyball team was looked at as an underdog in the tourna- ment. Yet, they responded in a big way in the opening round against Southwest Missouri State at the Hamons Student Center in Springfield, Mo. Tina Rogers pounded 32 kills, a ca- reer high and the second high- est in University history, in the Fighting mini's 15-7, 15-13, 17- 15 upset sweep of Southwest Missouri State. Rogers committed just two errors in her .848 performance and dug a team leading 22 balls, also a career high. She is the 10th player to have a 20-20 game and the fifth to have a 30- 20 game in Illinois history. Overall, the Illini were the more physical team and played at a higher tempo than the Lady Bears for the majority of the match. The opening round victory over Southwest Mis- souri State advance the Illini into the second round of the NCAA tournament against the Lady Buffs of Colorado in Boulder, Co. In the second round, the Illini spikers were the victims of a stampede at the Coors Events Center in Boulder. Colorado's Lady Buffaloes steamrolled Illinois 15-7, 15-5, 15-10 and ad- vanced to the semifinals of the NCAA tourna- ment. This certainly was a different Illini squad from the one that showed up against South- west Missouri State in the opening round of the tournament. Colorado played a tough sideout game and Illinois helped the Buffaloes by com- mitting numerous unforced errors. Overall, Illinois was plagued by 10 service errors, inaccurate passing, and weak blocking. Setter Merril Mullis had to run all over the court to reach wild passes and diggers were slow to balls of the Illini block. Illinois was also called for eight net violations. Subpar blocking hurt Illinois because it took away an integral part of both the offense and the defense. On >V4 i * L. X/tmrm Mm %&*K*i M At ii this day, it was just not meant to be for Coach Hebert and his squad. Although the Mini bowed out of the tourna- ment in the early rounds, Jones still felt that making it to the postseason was a great achievement. "It is a tradition of the University 'of Illinois to make it to the NCAA tournament. This salvaged somewhat of a disappointing Iseason by making it to the season. This was definitely the highlight of the season," Jones paid. Fellow player Kristin has the same perspec- tive on making the tournament. She believes that even though the team did not live up to preseason expectations, the season was not as bad as people thought. "Sure, we didn't accomplish everything that iwe wanted to this season. Yet, there are a lot of teams that would have liked to have been in our position- in the NCAA tournament," "To a lot of teams, 18-13 is a great season. Making it to the second round of the tourna- ment is an accomplishment that a lot of teams cannot say that they achieved," Henrickson said. Throughout the course of the season, Coach Hebert was pleased with the play of all of his players. Yet, the play of Rogers stood out above the rest. She was named the team's Most Valuable Player for her play during the season. "She was our MVP hands down and we voted accord- ingly at the team banquet. She just did everything for us," Coach Hebert said. With a solid recruiting class and some of the players return- ing next season, the volleyball team should once again be solid in 1994. "Next season's squad should be pretty strong. They have a whole freshman crew coming in which means a lot of new faces, but that doesn't mean that they can't have a good team," "Illinois volleyball has a strong tradition. Next season's squad, although young, will have a lot of talent. So I look for them to put to- gether another strong year," Henrickson said. Coach Hebert did add that up to this point, recruiting has gone really well. They have al- ready landed several new recruits and with some searching left, Coach Hebert expects nothing but more talented players to fill the roster next season. Even though Coach Hebert and the 1993 women's volleyball squad fell short of their ex- pectations for the season, they still put together a strong 1993 campaign. Making it to the sec- ond round of the NCAA tournament is an ac- complishment that many teams in the country cannot boast. With a great deal of talent com- ing in combined with the return of half of this year's team, Coach Hebert is looking forward to another strong campaign. Yet, with all of the new faces, the coach is still a little unsure of just how well his squad will perform next sea- son. The illini get set against Penn State.

After a 1 3-1 5 showing in 1 991 , Big Ten Coach of the Year Lou Henson and his team rebounded with a 19-13 overall record and a return trip to post- season play. The Illini were ousted in the second round by Vanderbilt, but expectations for a deeper run into the NCAA tournament are high in Champaign this season. "We have some team goals for this season. We ex- pect to be good in the nonconference, the Big Ten and the post-season/' Henson said. "We are a lot stronger this year than last year. We have more size, strength, rebounding, and better shooting. We definitely ex- pect good things from this squad." In the 1992-93 campaign, the team finished with a 7-4 nonconference mark and an 1 1-7 record in the Big Ten, good for third place in the conference. The Fighting Illini started out in the Great Alaska Shootout, winning the first two games against Day- ton and Vanderbilt. Illinois came within one basket of winning the tournament, losing to New Mexico State, 95-94 in the championship. This was the first of many exciting Illini contests that came down to the final seconds of regulation. The team continued its dominance in the Illini Classic, defeating Jackson State and Princeton for the championship of the tournament. Later in Decem- ber, Illinois was defeated by the Missouri Tigers, 66- 65. The nonconference schedule concluded with a 61-58 loss to Marquette at home. The Big Ten schedule provided just as many thrills as the nonconference schedule did. The high- light of last season came in the first weekend of Feb- ruary. Trailing the Iowa Hawkeyes 77-75 with 1 .5 seconds left in the game, the Illini turned to fifth- year senior Andy Kaufmann. T.J. Wheeler fired a perfect inbound pass to Kaufmann. He then took one dribble shot and buried a 25-foot jump shot at the buzzer to give the Illini an exciting 78-77 win over the Hawkeyes. Kaufmann's heroics were needed once again against Purdue a month later. He nailed two free throws with 0.4 seconds left to send the contest into double overtime, where the Illini prevailed 78-70. In the second to last game of the regular season, Illinois took eventual NCAA tournament runner-up, Michigan, to double overtime, only to fall 98-97, as a desperation shot by freshman Richard Keene came after the buzzer. Illinois' 18-12 mark and 3rd place finish in the Big Ten was strong enough to earn them a number six seed in the NCAA tournament. They knocked off Lucious Harris and the Long Beach State 49ers 75-72 in the first round of the tournament. Up next was Vanderbilt, who the Illini handled 93-77 in the Great Alaska Shootout. This time, however, the Commodores got the best of the Illini, 85-68, putting an end to Illi- nois' season. Although last season was successful, there are several players, including senior Deon Thomas, who are excited about this season. "I am looking forward to good things this year. The team has come out in shape and I have been working harder and improved my shooting range and ball handling skills," Tho- mas said. The Illini return all but three players from last year's squad. Kaufmann and Brooks Taylor graduated, and Rennie demons was declared aca- demically ineligible and did not return to Illinois for the fall term. Thomas, a pre-season second team All-America pick and a first team All-Big Ten pick, brings back his 18.3 scor- ing average and 8.0 rebound- ing figures from last season. Also, Tom Michael, the league's top long-range marks- man in 1991-92, will figure to see increased playing time from last year. At guard, the Il- lini can get the ball to 6-6 sophomore Keene (8.3 ppg, 2.3 apg, 44% on three-pointers), who finished second in the Big Ten Rookie of the Year race. Also, 6-6 junior Robert Bennett (7.6 ppg, 6.8 rpg) and Wheeler, who provides offensive stability and solid de- fense, return. Coach Henson will welcome National Junior Col- lege Player of the Year Shelley Clark, a 6-9 junior from Indian Falls Community College in Iowa. Also, redshirt freshman Chris Gandy at forward, freshman Kiwane Garris at point guard and fresh- man Jerry Hester all should see a great deal of play- ing time this season. In fact, Garris, in all likelihood, will be the start- ing point guard due to the loss of demons. Garris could provide an added dimension that demons did not possess. "They are similar in driving. The difference is that you have to play Kiwane for the drive and the shot and that opens up the outside. Teams would lay off Rennie and play him for the drive," Keene said. Coach Henson believes that the team will pos- sess several strengths this season. He said, "the main strength of the team will come on the in- side". With the combination of Thomas and Clark down low, Henson feels very confident about this aspect of the club. He added, "With Garris at point guard and Keene at the off guard the squad should have a strong backcourt tandem." Finally, being able to use Bennett, Gandy, Hester, Michael and Wheeler off the bench will allow the team to go eight or nine deep every game. This depth is an important aspect that the past two or three of Henson's teams lacked. Coach Henson said he believes that the Illini definitely have their work cut out for them dur- ing the regular season. "In our nonconference schedule, we play Illinois- Chicago, Marquette, Missouri and Texas, who are all really strong. Illinois-Chicago always plays us tough and they have one of their most talented teams this season," he said. "Marquette and Texas are picked to win their conferences, and Missouri is a very talented team and is ranked in the top 25 this season." Big Ten conference play includes facing five foes ranked in the Associated Press (AP) poll: Indiana, Michigan, Minnesota, Ohio State and Purdue. Already the Illini are a pre-season rank at num- ber 17 in the AP poll, while other publications have the Illini ranked as high as eighth in the country.

IH2 Athletii Veterans and Youngsters to Lead Squad story by Garen Vartanian layout by Kris Moskwa Coming off of two consecutive 9-19 eighth place Big Ten seasons, the women's basketball team did show some improvement last season. By posting a 12-15 overall record and a 7-11 fin- ish in the Big Ten, the Illini moved up to sev- enth place. This season, Kathy Lindsey, head women's basketball coach, and her women will be shooting for a top four finish in the confer- ence. The Illini will be looking to break a five-year streak of sub-. 500 records. Coach Lindsey has made this one of the teams primary goals for the season. "The girls are working really hard to make it into the upper division of the Big Ten. We have finished in the bottom half of the conference for the past several season," Lindsey said. "We feel that we can produce an upper division record that could land us in the top three in the Big Ten. If we can achieve this goal and win at least nine of our nonconference games, we have a strong chance of making it to the National Col- lege Athletic Association (NCAA) tourna- ment." The road to the NCAA tournament, how- ever, will not be an easy one for the team, even though the field for the tournament has been expanded to 64 teams this season. As usual, the Big Ten is one of the strongest conferences in the country from top to bottom. This season, Ohio State and Iowa, although hurt by a heavy loss of players because of graduation, are picked to win the conference. Both of these squads appeared in the Final Four last season. In addition to the Buckeyes and the Hawkeyes, Minnesota, Northwestern and Penn State are all expected to contend for the posi- tioning in the upper division in the Big Ten. If a strong conference schedule is not enough for the women's basketball team to deal with, playing Alabama and Southern Illinois Univer- sity at Carbondale (SIUC) in their nonconference schedule will not make life any easier. Sophomore Anita Clinton said she believes that even though the women's basketball team plays a strong schedule, they can have a very successful season. "The Big Ten is always strong and we do play some re- ally tough teams out of the con- ference, too. Still, I believe that finishing in the top three of the conference is a very achievable goal," Clinton said. "To take it a step further, the NCAA tournament is not out of our reach." Incidentally, Clinton is com- ing off of some personal suc- cess over the summer that has made her a force to be reck- oned with in the post position. She played on the United States team in Taiwan and benefited greatly from this. The experi- ence has turned her into a player that will force other teams to double up on her whenever she receives the ball in the post. Clinton did show some of these signs of this dominance as a freshman, when she averaged nearly nine points and six rebounds a game. Coach Lindsey, though, is looking to several players to carry the scoring load this sea- son. "Kris Dupps made honor- able mention in the Big Ten last season as a sophomore. I am looking to her to do a portion of the scoring this season. Clinton on the inside had a ter- rific freshman season and she could definitely produce a lot of points for this team on the inside," she said. "In addition, (continued on page 185) Senior Tonya Booker guards an opponent. Booker was the 1992-93 Ul Junior Scholar Athlete Award winner. Women's Basketball 183 — Ruth Galves Junior Kris Dupps falls for a loose ball. The team finished 12 15 in the 1 992- 93 season. IK i Mlil' h' (continued from page 183) Tonja Booker and Mandy Cunningham, who isa three-year starter and strong three-point shooter, are back from last season and will be expected to do some of the scoring for us. Overall, we should have a nice mix of scoring all through the lineup." This season, the women's basketball team is featuring a new style on the basketball court. Coach Lindsey has implemented a new up- tempo attack. In this attack, the team features a strong frontcourt which includes Clinton, Dupps, 6-foot-3 center Cindy Hanna, senior Vicki Klingler and impressive freshman Marchoe Dill. The only real soft spot for the Illini is at guard. The graduation of U of I all-time assists leader Jill Estey leaves Illinois without a true point guard. At the start of the season, the Illini will be thin at the top of the key. Booker, who will take over the point guard position, and Cunningham, who brings back a 13 point career scoring average to the off-guard position, are Illinois' only experienced guards as the season begins. Yet, if Coach Lindsey can find a nice mix of Cunningham's three-pointers with the inside play of Clinton and the other post players, the new up-tempo attack could create a great deal of difficulty for opposing teams this season. Senior leadership is an important quality of any team, and Coach Lindsey will be looking to a couple of players for the leadership this sea- son. "Tonja (Booker), Mandy (Cunningham) and Vicki Dilger, who is coming back from knee surgery, will all be expected to lead this team. As I said, Mandy is a three-year starter and Tonja is a senior, so I will be looking to them for the leadership," Lindsey said. In addition to a solid core of seniors, the women's basketball team has two strong fresh- men that will see playing time this season. "Marchoe Dill, a lefty who is from Detroit, and Ann Henderson are two really good fresh- men. With Dill being lefthanded, she will cre- ate a great deal of problems for teams because most players are right handed and have a diffi- cult time adjusting to lefties," Lindsey said. Dupps added, "Ann just had knee surgery but should be back by our second game of the season against Illinois State. She led our condi- tioning drills this season and she is a real force on the inside." With a solid mix of veterans and young players, the women's basketball team seems to be on the right track to achieving their goal of finishing in the top three in the Big Ten and making an NCAA tournament appearance. With the expanded field this season, the dreams of the women's basketball team could definitely become a reality.

The Union Tournament is the rugby club's conference tournament, which would qualify them for the Midwest Junior Cup Tournament in the spring if they win. "We won (the Union Tour- nament) last year and we are going back as the defending champions," said Club Presi- dent David Hoffman. "We have historically performed poorly in (the Collegiate Tour- nament), but we are definitely looking to turn that around this year." In addition to the Union Tournament and the Collegiate Tournament, the rugby club has a rigorous regular-season schedule. The ruggers' compe- tition includes Peoria, South Side Irish, Southern Illinois University and Springfield. Peoria is a perennial power that the rugby club will have to face both in the regular season and in the Union Tournament. The rugby club is coming off Improving On Past Success a strong season and an even stronger finish from last year, but that momentum has not car- ried through to this season. "We were so hot at the end of last year that we won our last five games," Hoffman said. "This year, we have stumbled a bit at first. We came out and played some really strong teams early and we suffered a couple of setbacks." "Yet, we beat Evansville thoroughly and things are starting to look up for us," Hoffman added. The rugby club boasts a couple of major strengths that will help them succeed this sea- son. "We are in really great cardiovascular condi- tion," sophomore Harlee Sorikin said. "We train two times a week and we are a very fast team. We have the potential to wear teams out and simply outrun them." Sorikin added that he thinks the club's de- fense is another of its strongest assets. Overall, the rugby club will have to rely on underclassmen to help them succeed this sea- son, but Hoffman said he does not see this as a major concern. "One of our strengths is our underclassmen. They are coming along well and are playing ex- tremely hard," he said. "We have a real strong core of rookies that should have a positive im- pact on the team." With a combination of strong defense and hard working underclassmen, the rugby team hopes to follow up last season with an even more successful one this year. Rugby 187 Veterans Pursue National Championship With 17 members returning from last year's team, experience is the key word in describing the 1993-1994 Fighting Illini Hockey Club. Coming off a sixth place national finish last season, this year's veteran staff appears headed for their second consecutive national tourna- ment appearance and, possibly, a national championship. "We went into the tournament last year hop- ing to win and we didn't," said senior club president and goaltender Terry Kasdan. "This season we know what it will take, and that's our goal — to win nationals." If the club's early season performance is any indication of how they'll finish, the Illini ap- pear to be on the right track. The team got off to a tremendous start in the fall, going 7-0 on the road before their home opener. By midseason, they had scored big wins over Wake Forest and conference power Iowa State. For the first time in 20 years, the Illini swept Iowa state in a weekend series at Iowa. With only five home weekends and a dozen road trips this year, winning on the opposition's ice will be crucial for Illinois. "It's real tough playing on the road all the time," said Kasdan, "but that's where we have to come up with the big wins." Leading the Illini scoring attack this year are juniors Emmett McCarthy and Kurt Penn along with senior Darren Waunn, who is currently number eight on Illinois' all-time scoring list. Senior team captain Eric Penn, brother of Kurt Penn, has been at the forefront of the team's de- fense this season. "He's really a solid defensemen," said Kasdan. "He's a guy we count on heavily." In addition to strong offensive and defen- story by Steve Schulz layout by Monica Soltesz sive units, the Illini also have two seasoned goaltenders in Kasdan and senior Jon Younger. Kasdan and Younger usually split the time in the net during the weekend series in order to both stay fresh, Kasdan said. Having so many experi- enced players is another strong point for Illinois this season. "The veterans are really help- ing out the rookies and the other veterans," said Eric Penn, "Our experience is definitely making us more competitive." Playing some of the top-raked teams in the nation early in the season, the club is well aware of how tough the national competi- tion will be. "Against teams on the level of Penn State and North Da- kota State, we'll have to play hard for three hill periods," said McCarthy. "We can't afford to slack off." Eric Penn agreed that win- ning will take an intense effort by the whole team. "We have to keep working hard and improve on our power-play," he said. "We also need to play physi- cally." "We're not the most talented team," said Kurt Penn, "but we have a lot of heart and team unity. If we give it our best effort, we can get past anybody."

They are attempt- ing to win the Big Ten Confer- ence. For Gary Wieneke, head men's track coach, the return of several key players should help the track team make a positive impact in the Big Ten, "Overall, we are in really good shape with our returnees. Naturally, we lost a couple of players due to graduation. Ja- son West, who was our catalyst and basically our team leader last year, graduated. Also, Earl Jenkins, who was a sprinter, was lost to graduation last year. The men's track team will be strong in several areas this sea- son. They returned a lot of depth in several different posi- tions. "Marco Koers, who was the National Champion at the 800m indoor and the 1500 out- door, returns this season. Also, Scott Turner, a sprinter and the defending Big Ten champion as a sprinter, returns from last year's squad. Finally, Jeff Teach, a shot-putter, is back form last year. Basically, we are returning the majority of our players from last season and the returnees are strong in each position," Wieneke said. Teach, a redshirt senior who has two years of elegibility, said, "I believe that we are strong in about every area this year. We are solid in the throws, we have a really good distance runner in Marco, our sprinters are tough, and our Looking to Capture the Big Ten pole vaulters should have a really solid year. We just have good overall team strength in all of our different events." The men's track team is coming off a very successful season. Coach Wieneke's squad was the runner-up in the Big Ten in both the indoor and the outdoor seasons. Ohio State was the team that finished in first place ahead of the track team, both in the indoor and the outdoor seasons. Coach Wieneke was pleased with such a high finish in the conference, but he and his squad are definitely looking to move up one more notch in the standings. Ohio State is favored to repeat as conference champions this season. Yet, Coach Wieneke and his team do believe that they can overtake the Buckeyes and win the Big Ten. One of their major goals is in fact to dethrone Ohio State as the conference champions. Coach Wieneke said, "To replace Ohio State as the Big Ten champions and make an impact in the top ten in the country this season are two of our major goals. Ohio State has been the champion for the past couple of years, but we are looking to overtake them as champions of the Big Ten this season." Koers also believes that the squad can jump over the Buckeyes for the Big Ten crown. Al- though he did say that it would not be an easy task. "Of course, Ohio State will be our stiffest competition this year. We are going to do our best to beat them, but they are a good team. This is one of our major goals for the season and it would be really great if we could accom- plish it. We have some new freshmen coming in so we are going to have to rely on them and build around them. We do have a lot of good guys returning for us too, so this will help out. Last year, we improved a lot throughout the course of the season and this helped us make such a strong showing in the Big Ten. We'll just have to go out there and see what happens this year. " Teach agreed with Koers in that the men's track team can overtake the Buckeyes this sea- son. He noted that Ohio State lost several key Track 191 continued from page 191 Brian Bridges, senior, completes a successful vault. The team finished 15th in the NCAA Championships. members from last year's Big Ten championship squad. As for Coach Winckler and his women's track team are concerned, they are shooting for a top three finish in the con- ference. Coach Winckler said, "It is not totally established who is expected to win the conference this year. However, Michigan, Wisconsin, and we are all picked to finish in the top three of the conference. It is still early to tell who will do what since the major competition does not start until January, but we, Michigan, and Wiscon- sin are all expected to contend for the title." Coach Winckler's squad re- turns several key players from last year's team that finished first in the indoor competition, placed second in the outdoor season, and fin- ished seventh overall in the NCAA champion- ships. Tonja Williams, a hurdler in both events and an Ail-American as a freshman, is return- ing this year. Also, Janelle Johnson, a sprinter in the 400m, is returning for the '93-'94 cam- paign. Although several important members returned from last season's squad, Coach Winckler did lose a very important asset. Tonja Buford, a standout hurdler in both events and in both relays, graduated. Coach Winckler stated that this was a big loss and that they are going to have to fill the void left by her departure. He did say, though, that they are returning several key members from last year's squad. Williams feels the teams depth will help point the direction for another solid season.

We have afew new players this year, including a couple of walk-ons and some in- coming freshmen. Yet, almost everyone from last year's squad, with the exception of Tonja, is returning. With this experience we should have a solid season in the Big Ten. We re- turned a lot of team players from last year and we should be strong in about all areas of our performance. Our field events will be strong and so will our distance runners. I simply think that we are really strong in all areas and we should be really good this year." The women's track team is once again attempting to make a strong impact in the Big Ten. Coach Winckler believes that this is one of the team's major goals for the season. "To be in the top three in the conference and have a chance to finish in first place is a big goal for us. Many of our fresh- men will have to step up and fill the gap left by the team members that graduated, especially Tonja. I am hoping that we can do this. Being in the top three is definitely our major goal for the sea- son," Winckler said. Overall, Coach Winckler and Coach Wieneke have similar goals for their respective squads this season. Both coaches are hoping to see their team capture the Big Ten title this sea- son. With the amount of depth returning to the men's and women's track teams from last year, both coaches feel that winning the conference this season is a very attainable goal. Looking to make the next hurdle, Jason West surges ahead. West was a middle distance runner for the lllini.

I'/, A 1 1 , i ■ Building Upon New-Found Success Second-year head coach Mark Johnson is cer- tainly turning things around for Illinois wres- tling. In his first season with the Fighting Illini, Johnson led the team to a 9-4 mark, their best finish in 32 years. This season the team hopes to put even more checks in the win column as they face off against a host of strong Big Ten programs and strive for national recognition. With only one wrestler lost from the 1992- 1993 season and the number two recruiting class in the nation this year, the Illini appear to be headed in the right direction. While they will miss the performance of Jeff Monson, a na- tional qualifier in 1992-1993, Johnson feels this year's team can fill that gap. "Basically we have our whole team back," said Johnson, "and everyone is showing im- provement. The level of the team overall is much better than it was last year." Top contenders returning in 1993-1994 in- clude juniors Steve Marianetti and Charles story by Steve Schulz layout by Lori Schneider Gary. Marianetti earned Ail- American honors while setting an Illinois record with 44 wins in his sophomore year. Gary, whom Johnson describes as "much improved over last year," has already made an im- pact this season by winning in the Illini's first tournament and narrowly losing to the reigning national champion in his weight division during their second meet. Newcomers expected to see a lot of action this year include Augustana College transfer Steve Rusk, who was a two- time All-American at the Divi- sion III level, and freshmen Ernest Benion Jr., Jacob Hey and Jonathan Vaughn. Benion, who was redshirted in 1992-1993, placed in the first two season tournaments at the 158 pound level. Along with Benion, Hey, a high school national champion, and Vaughn are expected to lead the strong freshman class. Despite their abundance of talent, however, Johnson knows the team still has a hard road ahead of it. "We still have a long way to go to get competitive with the nation's best teams," said Johnson. "The Big Ten is so strong in wres- tling — most of the teams are ranked in the top 25 in the country. It will be difficult, but when we move up in the Big Ten, we'll move up na- tionally." Johnson said his goals for the program this year are to continue to improve and to try and break into the national polls. "If we keep progressing we should be able to make it into the top 20," he said, "so that's our goal right now: to get as competitive as we possibly can." — Rick Widmer Wrestling 197 % -. _ * > Sophmore Kady Hackett swims the butterfly.

The men's team was dissolved by the Division of Intercollegiate Athletics (DIA) because of budget restrictions. The choice of the team was also based on the National Colle- giate Athletic Association's (NCAA) gender equity clause. The women's program also had a change as it introduced former University of Arizona assistant coach Jim Lutz as its new head coach. According to Lutz, 1994 will be a rebuilding year for the Illini as they try to get reorganized and recruit heavily this season. Under NCAA guidelines, at least 40 percent of a university's total athletic spending must go toward women's sports. The men's swimming program was cut in 1993 to help Illinois comply with those guidelines. Lutz said that while it is unfortu- nate that Illinois no longer has a varsity men's team, the ab- sence should not effect the women's team because the two groups did not train to- gether. Finishing 10th out of the 11 teams in the Big Ten last sea- son, the women's program is one that "can definitely make some improvements," accord- ing to Lutz. As a former re- cruiting coordinator at Ari- zona, Lutz feels bringing in strong swimmers will be the key to getting the Illini back in contention. Rebuilding for the Future "Right now we're trying to get as many good caliber athletes as we can," Lutz said. "That's going to be the trick to get this program up to where it should be." Although recruiting may determine the fu- ture of Illinois swimming, winning this year will depend upon the team's attitude and the leadership of Lutz's senior swimmers. Top competitors this season are returning seniors Jennifer Sadler, Mary Ackermann and Kathy Dietrich. Lutz said that Sadler should be "a ma- jor force in the sprint freestyle," while Ackermann and Dietrich are expected to lead the team in middle distance and distance events. Also showing promise in 1993-1994 is newcomer Debbie Schwartz, a freshman who Lutz hopes will make a big impact in the sprint freestyle and butterfly. As the team captain, Sadler said the squad has responded well to the coaching change. "It's just a whole new atmosphere," said Sadler. "Everyone's attitudes have changed and everyone is real excited about being a part of the team this year." While the team's enthusiasm is their strength, their lack of depth will probably be a weakness. "We've only got about 13 or 14 members on the team," said Lutz. "It's going to be real diffi- cult in the dual meets with so few swimmers." With such a small roster, Lutz said it will be difficult for the Illini to move up in the confer- ence standings. His goal this season is to con- centrate on individual performances and not worry about the team's rank "We want everyone to be faster than they've ever been," said Lutz. "I think that's a realistic goal for us this year." Sadler agreed that individual improvement should be the team's focus in 1993-1994. "We can't be concerned about where we are in the Big Ten right now," said Sadler. "We don't have the numbers for that yet. Right now we're more concerned with scoring more points than we did last season and just having everyone do her best."

With a potent offense and an inconsistent pitching staff in 1993, the team tied for eighth in the conference and finished 32- 23 overall. "It was a disappointing year," said Head Coach Rich- ard "Itch" Jones. "We really struggled on the mound." As the team takes to the field in 1994, they will again look to the pitching staff to keep the games close and help bring home the wins. "If [the pitchers] can go out and be competitive and stay healthy, then we'll win ball games," said Jones. While the team still has solid young talent at most of the po- sitions, they will miss the lead- ership of key players lost to graduation and professional signings. Scott Spiezio, the team's leading power hitter in 1993, and starting pitchers Matt Arrandale and Keith Toriani, who combined for 14 wins and 162 innings pitched last season, will not return in 1994. How- ever, Jones feels that this year's squad is prepared to fill in the gaps. "Every year you know you're going to lose players," said Jones, "that's part of col- lege baseball. But, you try to re- cruit through that and build on what you have." The Illini are fortunate that Pitching Their Way To The Playoffs the majority of this season's top players are ex- perienced and that they still have one or two years of eligibility left.

Catchers Schullian and Kortkamp, who combined for 33 RBI last season, are expected to add to the team's offensive arsenal. "We're very fortunate to have two good catchers," said Jones. Schullian held the team's second highest batting average in 1993, hitting .377. Returning outfielders this year include se- niors Forry Wells and Cedric Moore and junior Jason Schumaker. Wells, who also plays first base, should provide leadership for the rela- tively young ball club. Wells led the team in hitting last season with a .385 batting average. Top Illinois pitching prospects this year in- clude junior Matt Sander and sophomores Donnie Payne, Jason Wollard and John Oestreich, who was third on the staff in innings pitched last season. New additions to the Illinois roster include junior college transfers Shawn Williams and Shawn Herzog and freshman recruit B.J. Hofmann. ones said the team's goal this year is to make the conference playoffs, a task that rests heavily on solid pitching performances. "Realistically, I think we have the position players to be near the top," said Jones, "so a lot of it's going to depend on our pitching. Now we just have to hope the young players can come in and do the job on the mound that we think they're capable of." With Minnesota, Ohio State, Purdue, Indi- ana and Michigan all expected to have good ball clubs this year, Jones said finishing in the top four in the Big Ten will not be easy. "It's a tough conference," said Jones, "but a conference in which anyone can beat anyone on a given day. We just have to get ourselves in that frame of mind and be very competitive."

Baseball 201 in,. lui Athletics Taking Club Sports to a New Level story by Steve Schulz layout by Lon Schneider As a club sport at the U of I, the men's volleyball club is often overshadowed by the sanctioned women's volleyball program. Their dedication and enthusiasm, however, is second to none. The club showed steady improvement over the course of the 1992-1993 season. This year, with seven returning players and a talented crop of newcomers, they hope to become one of the top-ranked volleyball clubs in the country. Last year the club was ranked consis- tently in the top 25 among men's volleyball clubs nationwide and at one point peaked at number six. In Big Ten play, the team finished fourth overall but experienced an important moral victory in defeating Big Ten powerhouse and two time Midwest Intercollegiate Volleyball Association champion Michigan State. Erik Kirstein, senior club president and middle hitter, reflected on the importance of that type of victory. "(The Big Ten) is getting a lot more competitive," Kirstein said. "Teams in the middle of the conference are capable of knocking off the top teams on any given day." Part of the success of conference leaders such as Michigan State can be attributed to the fact that they have full time coaches in addition to club presidents. Kirstein said Illinois plans to have a coach for the first time in 1993-1994, but it has yet to be deter- mined who will fill the position. "We will have someone on the outside running the show," Kirstein said, "it's just a matter of who it will be. It will take a lot of pressure off the players since no one will have to be bench coach." In addition to Kirstein, return- ing players for the 1993-1994 sea- son include seniors Joey Pacis and Randy Wesselhoff and sopho- more standout Andy Nedzel. According to Kirstein, Pacis is ex- pected to be the club's star setter while Nedzel will continue the tradition of strong middle blockers at Illinois. One of the club's goals this year is to gain notoriety and sup- port on campus. "We're trying to get ourselves some press and set a foundation for the new guys," Kirstein said. Although it probably won't happen in the near future, Kirstein feels sanctioned men's volleyball could become a reality at Illinois if the team continues to play well and draw publicity. The 1993-1994 squad will play in two fall tournaments and two exhibition matches in anticipation of their spring season, which will include hosting the 1994 Big Ten Championships in March. "I think we should be a good club this year," Kirstein said. "We have a lot of talent and versatility, and even though we're not a varsity sport, we try to play at a professional level." — Illio File I'hoio Men's Volleyball 203 ■ Darin Trobaugh Chris Thatcher jumps to hit the ball. The team has worked hard over the last season to improve their attitude and play more professionally. story by Steve Schulz layout by Monica Soltesz When Craig Tiley took over as head coach of the men's tennis team last season, he brought years of experience and a new attitude with him. Tiley was hired during the fall of 1992 on an interim basis, but it now ap- pears he will stay with the Illi- nois program and try to help get the team back on track. "When I first came here, I wasn't planning on making as long of a commitment as I have," Tiley said. "Now I'm committed to turning this pro- gram around." With their coach and over half of the players new to the team last season, organizing and reconstructing were Tiley's goals for 1992-1993. The team finished the year a disappoint- ing 4-21 overall, but they ac- complished the task of setting a foundation for the 1993-1994 season. "Our record doesn't reflect how close a lot of the matches were, but that's always the case," said Tiley. "More impor- tantly, the individual players showed a lot of improvement, and that's what we really wanted out of last season." This year, with all but one player returning and five strong new members, the team is in a position to start climbing A Winning Attitude up the Big Ten ranks. Tiley is particularly en- thusiastic about the squad's new recruits, all of whom are transfer students. "They're a very strong group, they're very confident, and they have good skills," Tiley said. "They should definitely help improve our overall strength." New players will fill the top four positions for Illinois in 1993-1994, with last year's Cana- dian Junior Player of the Year Jerry Turek in the number one spot. Other top competitors this year include sophomore Chris Devore, who has previously been ranked as high as 16th in the nation, and University of Kansas transfers Jeremy Sutter and David Manpearl. There is more to Fighting Illini tennis this season than new players, however. There is a winning attitude. Tiley wants the team to gain experience by competing in as many tourna- ments as possible, and be the most physically fit team on the courts. "We don't want to leave anything to chance," Tiley said. "If we work hard on our skills and conditioning, the winning should take care of itself." The Illini have two condi- tioning sessions per day outside of regular practices. In addition to building experience and fit- ness, Tiley also hopes to increase community and alumni support. "We want people to get organized in supporting men's tennis and get excited about the direction in which it's head- ing," he said. "We're improving the attitude and increas- ing the professionalism," Tiley added. "We're a new program, and it's kind of exciting be- cause everyone knows that and thev enjoy be- ing a part of it." 204 Athletics — Mark Jones Sophmore Jerry Turek prepares to hit the ball.

In Head Coach Jennifer Robert's first season at the University of Illinois, the team stumbled to a 1-8 season. Ever since Robert's inaugural season, her teams have become consistently better. The women's tennis team compiled an 8-2 record in 1991-1992 and topped that campaign with a 9- 1 mark in 1992-1993. For the women's tennis team, which finished in second place in the Big Ten last season and placed third in the conference champi- onships in 1993, last season was the best in team history. "Our goal has always been to continue to climb the ranks in the Big Ten conference," Roberts said. "This is my sev- enth year and in my first year we were 1-8 in the conference. Each year, we consistently im- proved in the Big Ten and we are always looking to win the conference. This is one of our major goals year in and year out." The women's tennis team will be attempting to improve on their impressive 9-1 season from last year. Yet, they will have to overcome the loss of Lindsey Nimmo and hope that a strong group of freshmen can help bolster the team. Senior Camille Baldrich believes that the incoming freshmen will be an added bonus to the team. "We have four new freshmen and a few new walk-ons that are on the team, and we do have a strong nucleus return- ing from last year's team. Sure, Taking It A Step Further the loss of Lindsey hurts, but with the strong group of freshmen and a strong group back from last year, I think we'll be just fine," she said. Indiana and Wisconsin will provide the big- gest test for the netters in the conference. In ad- dition, the women's team will have to contend with an exceedingly strong non-conference schedule throughout the course of the season. "We play a pretty rough overall schedule," Roberts said. "Indiana and Wisconsin will be our toughest competition in the Big Ten. Both of these schools are consistently in the top 15 in the country. Also, Indiana is the three-time de- fending Big Ten champion, so they are always going to be tough to beat. We play several teams in our non conference schedule that are in the top 25. Both our non conference and con- ference schedules will provide stern tests for the team." This season, the strength of the women's tennis team will fall on the doubles teams. Ac- cording to Roberts, the success of the team will also depend a great deal on the doubles play. Roberts believes that the depth of this year's team will help the overall success of the team. "This season we have more depth than we ever had," she said. "There are a good number of athletes on this team and they will each pro- vide competition for each other throughout the course of the season. The inner strength will be a big help in preparing for the Big Ten season. As a matter of fact, I think that by the time we get to the Big Ten season, we will be playing better this year than we were at the same point in time last season." The tennis team is looking to improve on the outstanding success of last season. Although it is difficult to improve on 9-1, the players are optimistic that they can achieve this. Freshman Jessica Klapper said, "Last year I know the team had a really great year. From what I have seen so far, I think that we should have a strong team this season also. I believe that we have a great shot at doing well in the conference. In fact, I believe that it is a realistic goal for us to win the conference this season."

Women's Tennis 207 OvercomingYouth and a Shaky Start Dealing with the loss of 10 graduating seniors was a problem that women's soccer club coach Scott Wilson faced this season. Working with a young and talented group of girls, Wilson did not know what to expect, but his squad devel- oped into a Big Ten regional championship team. "With only 10 returning players out of 20 from last season, that is a turnover of 50 per- cent. This season we started two freshmen on defense and a freshman in goalie by the time the tournament came around," Wilson said. "As a young team, however, we were able to build and develop into a solid squad. We over- came the adversity of having a young team and actually turned it into a really strong season." The women's soccer club made a return trip to the national soccer tournament. To qualify for the tournament, the team has to finish in either first or second place in the Big Ten championships. The club took this a step further by winning the Big Ten team regionals. After the regionals, the squad moved on to the national tournament. They made it all the way to the semifinal game, only to get ousted by eventual national champion Arizona. All through the season, the women's soccer club encountered strong competition. "Purdue was a very good club this season. We matched up well with them, so we did have pretty good success against them," Wilson said. "On the other hand, we had a difficult time matching up with Michigan, who also has a very talented club." With 28 games on the schedule, it is important for the members of the women's soccer club to be in strong physical shape. Thus, in the summer, they are given a pre- season conditioning schedule which focuses mainly on weightlifting and running. Then in the off-season while the girls are at school, they practice once a week. The women's soccer club also play in a couple of tournaments in the winter. During the season, they practice four times a week. story by Garen Vartanian layout by Monica Soltesz "It is important for us to be in good condition when we get to school so we can get right into practicing hard. It is something that we have to do on our own, but it is definitely worth the time and effort for the upcom- ing season," said freshman Melissa Kann. Basically, the women's soccer club has a season-long goal: to qualify for the national soccer tournament. They focus and work around this goal all season. The players are very proud of this advancing to the tournament semifinals, especially given the status of the team at the outset of the season. "It was difficult at the beginning of the season because we knew that we had a lot of talent, but things were not clicking. Yet, we got it together and won the Midwest Regional and qualified for the national tournament," said senior Connie Voellinger. "Of course, we wanted to win it, but finishing third is not too bad. In fact, we played our best game of the year against Arizona who beat us and went on to win the tournament. This gives the team a lot of hope going into next year." The women's soccer club is definitely on the rise. With a young nucleus that will return from a team that made it all the way to the semifinals of the national tournament, the future looks bright for Coach Wilson and his squad. •>"♦♦♦♦♦ l# ♦ ♦ ♦ ♦ ♦ « Courtney Carpenter heads the ball against Marquette.

In the spring of 1993, the club finished third in their fifth consecutive appear- ance at the National Club Soc- cer Tournament (NCST). This season, the team appears to be headed for yet another national tournament bid and another chance at taking the final step in becoming NCST champions. "We have quite a few people returning from last season, and with some of the new players we've added this year, I think we have a good chance of win- ning [nationals]," said club president Jason Ruge. In completing the first half of the 1993-1994 season, the team jumped out to an 11-2-2 start which included a win over regional rival Purdue, 3-2, and a tie with powerhouse Michigan, 3-3. Top scorers this season in- clude Ruge, returning senior Steve Gehard and junior Brian Deters. Also making an impact this season are returning Taking The Final Step seniors Bob McQuellon and Scott Larson, the team's respective sweeper and goalie. First- year standouts include freshman Craig Wunderlich and sophomore Brad Weilbacher. As a new member of the team, Weilbacher said one of the club's strengths is their ability to play as a unit. ""The seniors are real accept- ing of the new players," said Weilbacher. "There are no little cliques on the team; we all play together." With all of their defenders from last year re- turning, the club's defense has lived up to the expectation that it would be a strong point this year. The team's offense has likewise played well during the first half of the season, dispel- ling any doubts as to its scoring ability. "I was kind of suspect at the beginning of the year about how our forwards and scoring would be," said Ruge, "but it turns out that so far the offense has been as strong as the de- fense." Ruge added that the team has scored mul- tiple goals in most of their games and that the accuracy of their shots has been excellent. Pass- ing, movement off the ball and spacing be- tween the players are three aspects Ruge would like to see the club improve upon. Weilbacher said the key to a championship season will be mental focus. "Our physical level and talent is as good as any team we've played so far," he said. "If we're able to keep our intensity level up, I don't really see anything standing in our way." Men's Soccer 211 212 Athletics Story by Garen Vartanian Layout by Carol Frantilla The women's softball club has one major goal for the season — to become a part of the Big Ten. In the near future, the univer- sity is considering making ei- ther the women's soccer club or women's softball a varsity sport. If the university picks softball, then this sport will be- come Division I and a member of the Big Ten. "The big thing for us is to gear ourselves up for Big Ten style and competition," said Bridgette New, club president. "Right now we are not an Na- tional Collegiate Athletic Asso- ciation (NCAA) team, but we are looking to enter the Divi- sion I ranks." For this season, the members of the women's softball squad have their work cut out for them. "Illinois Central, Kankakee, Lincoln Land, and Quincy will be the strongest teams that we play this season. Quincy is a typically a tough team and the other squads that I mentioned are also consistently strong," Kirsten Olson, member of the team, said. Basically, the women's soft- ball squad works hard all year to keep in shape for softball. During the season, the team practices everyday that they do not have games. The season starts at the end of March, goes until April and lasts about a Striving for the Big Ten month and a half. In the fall, the team also practices everyday. Members are not required to go to practice, but they are encouraged to at- tend. In addition to practices during the week, the softball club has games every Saturday. In the winter, the team practices in the bubble in Me- morial Stadium. Also, during the off season, the women's softball club lifts weights and runs together. Overall, the softball squad has a strong nucleus. "We had a lot of people try out from last year (for) this year and this was a big help. Also, there are a lot of sophomores and juniors who returned," New said. "We acquired a transfer from Illinois State University whom we are expecting good things from." "Julene Pfile, a graduate student, should make a positive contribution to the team," New added. "We simply have a nice mix of girls this season." The softball club is coming off a season full of rain-outs. They were only able to get in a hand- ful of games last season at the Complex Fields last year due to an excessive amount of rainfall. The women are hoping that the weather will be kinder to them this season. In general, the softball club is pretty strong, but one area of the team stands out above the rest. "Our pitching is very strong. Not only are our starters very good, but we have a solid corps of relievers too," Dina Elijah said. Overall, the women's softball club is looking to make a good impression on the university so they can convince them to make the softball club a varsity sport. The women's softball squad believes that if given the chance, they can successfully compete at the Division I level and in the Big Ten. Elijah, New, Olson and the rest of the members of the softball club are looking toward the university to give them this chance. Women's Softball 213 taBw •* . *'*, fjU ■•'V'* '.•-••* .

For eight tour- nament-packed weeks in the fall, the club practices and competes in anticipation of the season finale: the November Big Ten Champi- onship. The 1992-1993 club wrapped up their sea- son by finishing fifth in the Big Ten last fall, but sophomore club president Mike Kennedy said that they should have finished higher. "Our fifth place finish last year was sort of a choke," said Kennedy. "We were ranked sec- ond, but we just played terrible. This year we've only lost two guys, so we still have a re- ally good team." In addition to having all but two players re- turning from last season, the club will be strengthened by the acquisition of several new players. Newcomer standouts include junior Dwight Anderson and freshmen Renato Tonelli and Keith Lake. Some of the new players this year are former members of the men's swim team, a program that was cut last year. Return- ing for the 1993-1994 season along with Kennedy are graduate students Chris McDonough and Todd Luetkemeyer. Un- like varsity sports, club sport participants are allowed six years of eligibility. Also returning are seniors Dan Israelite, James Kriegsmann and Eric Schuchmann. Kennedy said that with conditioning and experience the team should improve over the course of the season and make a run for the conference championship in the end. "It's just a matter of getting in shape and working with each other," said Kennedy. "I think we'll probably finish first or second in the Big Ten." Anderson, who is a transfer student from California, is also optimistic. "If we keep practic- ing and we do a lot of swim- ming, then we're going to be really good," said Anderson. "I think we're capable of beat- ing everyone in the conference with the players we have." All the club members are aware that practice will be key to their success. In between weekend tournaments, the club works strenuously on conditioning and in practice sessions. The team practices four times a week, and several members have two hour swimming workouts on the morning of each practice day. "Practices are tough," said Kennedy, "but that's what it takes. For us it's very intense, especially during the fall be- cause will still have Big Tens ahead of us." The club will compete in four major tournaments before challenging for the Big Ten title in November. If they are able to come together as a team, Kennedy says they should have a shot at knocking off top-ranked Michigan. "The more games we play, the better we're going to be," said Kennedy. "Hopefully having so many tournaments over the next few weeks will get us ready for the Big Tens." — Kyo Young Jin During a practice, a member of the Mini Water Polo club holds onto the ball, while a teammate trys to steal it from him.

With two new coaches and a new attitude, this year's team hopes to put Illinois women's gymnastics back on the map, and back in the hunt for the conference championship. Leading the squad this sea- son are first-year Head Coach Lynn Crane and Assistant Coach Bob Starkell. Crane graduated from Penn State University in 1991 and served as an assistant coach at the University of Florida in 1992. Starkell is the former head coach of both the women's and men's gymnastics programs at the University of Wisconsin at Osh Kosh. As a part of winning teams at both Penn State and Florida, Crane knows what it will take to turn the Illinois program around. "There's a lot of talent here," Crane said, "we just need to develop it. I'm bring- ing a lot of the training tech- niques that I used at Penn State to Illinois, because I know they work." Crane's Penn State team fin- ished fifth in the nation in 1991, and last year she helped Florida capture a 10th place finish at the national champi- onship. Under Crane, this year's team is focusing on fitness more than ever before. "We're doing a lot of run- ning, aerobic exercise and weight lifting," said Crane. A Fresh Start She said she feels that if the team is physi- cally stronger, they will improve their perfor- mance and avoid some of the injuries that plagued last year's squad. Returning for the 1994 season are senior co- captains Kimberly Bathke and Mary Beth Crisham. Crane said that both gymnasts have displayed extraordinary leadership ability. "They're doing a great job of relaying what I want to the team," said Crane. Also returning this season are juniors Nicole Ward, Dina Slomski, Karla Peterson, and Tanya Semeniuk. Returning sophomores in- clude Natalie Forsthoefel and Tracy Alphans. Forsthoefel was limited to the uneven bars for most of the 1993 season after breaking her foot, but still managed to set an Illinois record in that event with a 9.8 in her first meet. This year she is expected to be one of the top all- around competitors. Alphans is still working her way back from elbow surgery. Newcomers for 1994 include five freshmen that Crane describes as "a well-rounded group in all four events." Freshmen Kelly Hogan, Kari Karubas and Nicole Viernes are scholar- ship recruits, while Becky Drummond and Nicki Ciccarelli round out the freshman class as walk-ons. This year's team has more than just new players and new coaches, however. According to Crane, they now have a starting point, and a new-found desire to win. "It's a fresh start," said Crane. "[The team is] extremely motivated at this point. The kids want to win again, so we're doing everything we can to get back to the forefront of the Big Ten." The team will have a chance to see if the changes have paid off when they open the sea- son against Nebraska in mid-January. They hope to close out the 1994 season with a strong finish at the Big Ten championships in March. "We want to prove to everyone that Illinois is a different team and that we're back in con- tention," said Crane. "We're going to the Big Ten championship to win it, and even if we fall short of that, we will have improved over last year." Kelly Hogan, freshman, competes on the beam.

Z\x Athletics story by Garen Vartanian layout by Kaye Kennedy New men's gymnastics Head Coach Don Osborne will have to rely on underclassmen for the success of this year's team. "From last year's team, we lost five of our nine competitors. This is a huge loss which is tough to overcome. We do have a lot of young guys this year and I know that they will be a little unpredictable at times," Osborne said, "This is some- thing that all young teams must go through. But for us to be successful, the young guys will have to come through." Although the men's gymnas- tics team lost over half of their competitors from last season, a few did return. Brian Kobylinski, one of the team captains, competes on the still rings and is a reigning Ail- American back from last sea- son. Also, three all-around competitors, Charlie Kowalski, Goncalo Macedo and the other team captain, Matt White, are back from the previous season. "I will be relying heavily on these guys this season. With our youth, those four will have to provide stability for the rest of the squad," Osborne said. In addition to dealing with a youthful team, Osborne and the men's gymnastics team must contend with an ex- tremely challenging sched- ule. Minnesota, Nebraska, Ohio State, Stanford, and UCLA will all provide stiff Youth to Lead Team competition for Osborne's team. In addi- tion, the Windy City Classic in January and the UCLA Invitational in February will be tough tournaments for the team. Overall, the men's gymnastics team is coming off offairly successful season, and should fair well in these competitions. "Last year, we finished in fourth place at the Big Ten Championships, third at the Regionals and sixth overall in the country," Osborne said. The men's gymnastics team opens up the season in January with the Windy City Classic. On the meantime, they practice six days a week to keep in shape, and have intra-squad matches in December. These matches are mixed pairs within the team to put the final touches on the preparation and conditioning for the upcoming season. "We do train somewhat similar in the offseason as we do in the season. Yet, in the offseason, especially in the summer, we do a lot of weigthlifting. Strength training is an im- portant aspect of our off-season conditioning program," Kowalski said. Extensive off-season and pre-season will hopefully pay off as the men's gymnastics team looks to make it back to nationals. To achieve this goal, the team must first finish in the top six teams in the Regional Championships and from then on they move on to the Nationals. "We would certainly like to make it back to Na- tionals this season. We do have a lot of new freshmen and the older guys are going to need to set the example for them. If we can get them some experience early on and have them con- tinue to compete with us, we should have a strong chance of a return trip to Nationals," Kobylinski said. Osborne is going to have to rely on a young group this year to get the team back to the Na- tionals. With just the right touch of veterans from last season's very successful team, this goal seems to be very achievable. Men's Gymnastics 219 An Illinois player drives the ball down the fairway.

For she is pleased with the team's "length the past three seasons, a memeber of the women's golf off the tee" this year. team has finished first at the Big Ten tournament. 220 AllllclKS story by Steven Schulz layout by Bob Gonzales Teamwork and Depth Golf is usually thought of as an individual ac- :ivity, but for the 1993-94 women's golf pro- gram, teamwork is the theme that they hope vvill carry them to the top of the Big Ten. The team finished off the 1992-93 season in a :ie for third in the conference, due in part to the Dutstanding performance of Renee Heiken. Heiken, who turned pro in the fall of 1993, :apped off her final year of eligibility by win- ding the Big Ten Tournament, placing sixth in national competition, and being named player of the year by the National Golf Coaches Asso- :iation and Golf Week magazine. Although Heiken will be missed, Head loach Paula Smith says that this year's squad las the right combination of strong veterans ind new talent to form a winning team. "This :eam, this year, is going to be good," Smith said. Returning to the team this season are senior Wendy Evans and juniors Becky Biehl, Chris- tine Garrett, Jennifer Lynch and Kristie Treseler. Newcomers include freshmen lourtney Mulcahy, Michelle Lin and acqueline Rubin, who shot a 77 in her first ap- pearance as an Illini. Biehl, who is expected to be a top contender n the conference this season, stressed the im- portance of team performance. "Everyone is at :lose to an equal level playing-wise so every- one is going to contribute," Biehl said. "It's go- ng to be a team effort, and I think it will really ?ring us closer together." In their first tournament this season, the ^edbird Invitational, the Illini took first place n what Coach Smith called "a true team ef- ort." Biehl said the win was an important step in milding team confidence. "Initially, I thought we might be hurting since we lost Renee Heiken], but after winning our first tourna- ment and seeing how everyone pulled to- gether, I think we'll do pretty well," Biehl said. Depth should be the key for the men's team in 1993-94. Af- ter finishing sixth in the Big Ten last year, Head Coach Ed Beard hopes that an expanded roster, including nine new players, will lead to a better season. "I think we should be much improved over last year," Beard said. "Our depth should be a strong point. We have so many players." There are fifteen players in all on this year's team, includ- ing key returning members Jamie Fairbanks, Ryan Graff and Jay Scott. Fairbanks re- ceived Big Ten honors last sea- son and took first place at the Illinois State Amateur Tourna- ment in 1993. Some of the new- comers this year include jun- iors Dave Cable and Scott Woodcock and freshman Matt Gindler, who will start the sea- son in the number four spot. Graff agrees that added depth should improve overall performance by pushing each individual to play better. Ac- cording to Graff, at least eight of the players on this year's roster will be able to challenge one another for the five tourna- ment positions. "Last year we just had five guys who could really play well and make the traveling team," said Graff. "This year it will change from week to week as to who will make the trips. Everyone will have to be on top of his game."

Vartanian Layout by C. Murray In many sports, defense wins ball games. For this year's U of I lacrosse squad, defense will be the key to how well the club performs this season. "Our biggest strength this year will definitely be our de- fense," said senior Scott Wil- liams, club president. "We re- turn two out of three starters on defense from last years team. "Also, our attack will be an extremely strong part of our game this season," Williams added. "Our general game plan will be to hold teams low enough with our defense and give our offense a chance to put together enough scoring to win as many ball games as we can." The lacrosse club is coming off of a fairly successful 1992- 93 campaign. They finished 9-9 overall in the spring of '93 and were ranked fourth in the Big Ten conference entering the conference championships. Af- ter the Big Ten championships, however, the lacrosse club slipped a couple of notches in the standings to sixth over- all. Williams said he believes that the lacrosse club can im- prove on last season's mark. "I am really optimistic about this season," he said. "We have a lot of new faces — especially in the mid-field." "Yet, the young guys have already shown a great deal of promise and they are really Defense: Key to the Season looking good," Williams continued. "With a few months of experience in the fall season and of getting used to our system, the young guys should be ready for the spring season, and I think they will be able to contribute and help us win some ball games." Michigan and Purdue seem to be the teams to beat in the Big Ten this season. Both teams are expected to finish at the top of the confer- ence. The Wolverines are the three-time de- fending champions of the Big Ten, while the Boilermakers are another staunch rival of the lacrosse squad. Both Michigan and Purdue should provide a stern challenge for Williams and his teammates. Despite the high rankings of the Wolverines and the Boilermakers, Blake Rohrabaugh, sophomore attacker, believes that the Illini club can definitely challenge for the Big Ten crown. "We can beat anybody in the conference if we play up to our potential — including Michigan and Purdue," Rohrabaugh said. "I feel that we can contend with these two squads and really have a lot of success against the other lacrosse clubs in the Big Ten." The only real soft spot on the club is in the mid-field. Only four of the mid-fielders have any experience at this position. The rest of the mid-fielders only have limited experience and limited playing time. Two of last years top mid-fielders and scorers, Reggie Hurtie and Jim Ellenbrook, graduated. According to Wil- liams, the lacrosse club is going to have to rely on the defense this season. Yet, senior attacker Doug Hart does not feel that the club's inexperience at the mid-field po- sition will be a major problem. "The attackers and the defense will definitely have to step up," he said. "You always have to worry about inexperience because of graduation and new guys coming in, but I think the new guys can learn quickly and contribute." -Darren King Lacrosse 223 Freshman Joe Alexander runs alone, team's best newcomer. — Darren Kin^ He was named the 11 I Athlelu s story by Steve Schulz layout by Kaye Kennedy & Monica Soltesz 1993 turned out to be a surprisingly successful year for the Illinois women's cross country team; not because anyone doubted this year's talent, but due to the fact that the team lost several key runners following the 1992 season. Three of the team's top seven runners, including last year' s number one finisher Laura Simmering, graduated. Senior Amy Tomlinson, who was expected to lead the team this season, had to postpone her final year of eligibility due to injury. Despite the odds, however, the Fighting Illini managed to improve their finish of a year ago by capturing sixth place at the Big Ten conference meet and finishing fifth in district competition. Along the way to the championship meets, the Illini took first place honors at the Illinois and Iowa Invitational, tied for second at the Bradley Invitational and were edged out of first place at the Purdue Invite by one point. Karen Morris was by far Illinois' top competitor of 1993, finishing either first or second in every meet with the exception of the Big Tens and Distinct Four. She was only the third Illinois runner ever to qualify for nationals finishing in 58th place in the November meet in I rhigh. Perm., for die best Illini result since Kelly McNee Ux)k 21st in I9K4. Laura Simmering finished 73rd at Nationals in 1991. Before the race, Moms said Running Against the Odds she wanted to pace herself against the women she has run against all season. Karen Morris credits the teams success to the confidence they gained over the course of the year. "We were ecstatic when we beat Iowa," she said. 'That meet gave us the most confidence. From then on, we went to the line with the attitude that we were going to give it everything we could, and we didn't do too bad." For the men's cross country team, 1993 served as a transition year as they tried to replace three of their top five runners from 1992. Unfortunately, they were unable to find the winning combination, as they ended a dismal season with their worst finish in 20 years: seventh in the Big Ten and twelfth out of 3 1 teams at the district level. Despite their lackluster numbers, however, Wieneke said his young runners made positive strides toward developing a winning spirit and setting a foundation for the future. "One of the positive things we can say about this season is that we've put some solid building blocks in place for the future of Illinois cross country," said Wieneke. Going into the 1993 season, the team immediately felt the absence of Jason West, Scott Maddux and Marko Koers. West and Maddux, who were die mini's two leading seniors in 1992 graduated, while Koers, the team's top freshman prospect of 1992, was redshirted in 1993. While the team got off to a slow start, Wieneke said they steadily improved as the season progressed, partly due to a change in attitude. "At mid-season we hit a meet with nationally- ranked low a." said Wieneke. "'and that's w hen our competitive effort lent itself to sa\ ing. 'he\ . we can run with these people and we have a good future ahead of us."' Pan of that future will depend upon the ability oi Illinois runners to consistent!) finish in the top positions at meets.

This facility is the 58,000 foot white building located bn the south campus just east of the baseball field. Atkins contains eight outdoor courts, six indoor courts, a pro shop, locker rooms for the men's ind women's teams, public locker rooms and offices for the coaches. kt this point you might find yourself wondering why you, Joe U of I, are lot familiar with Atkins. The truth is Atkins is relatively new on campus, t was officially dedicated Nov. 2, 1991. The structure was built at a cost of >5,300,000 and made possible by a $2,500,000 donation from Clinton and lusan Atkins of Champaign. Mr. and Mrs. Atkins not only wanted to >rovide the facility for U of I students, but also for residents of Champaign pd Urbana. Tie superiority of Atkins Tennis Center lies both in the variety of activities t offers as well as the range of people that benefit from them. As Craig "iley, head coach of the men's tennis team said, "The biggest asset of the ennis center is the many programs it offers to the community. It is very mique to have a university institution that serves everyone and not only a lelect group." Currently, the center employs four full-time and two part-time professionals. These professionals teach both private and group lessons. Towever, with the increasing popularity of Atkins, individuals who want o register for lessons must now sign up just to be put on a waiting list, ihis skyrocketing interest in tennis is especially evident by looking at the arge amount of juniors and adults who are involved in Atkins' programs. Residents of Champaign and Urbana are not the only ones who are grateful or the tennis center. According to Lissa Kimmel, a junior on the Illini ennis team, "Having one of the best tennis facilities has not only allowed he tennis team to recruit better players, but also has helped the team play gainst more competitive teams." More and more nationally ranked teams want to come and play at Atkins," Kimmel added. "This raises our level of competition which iltimately improves our game." "or those individuals who just want to volley with their friends in a first lass environment, court reservations can be made on a day to day basis as ong as the tennis teams are not using them. The tennis teams have all ourts reserved between 1:30 p.m. - 5:30 p.m., and one court reserved between 6:00 a.m. -1:30 p.m. Monday through Friday. Avid tennis players nay contract permanent court time for an 18-week session. With all that ktkins Tennis Center has to boast about it is no wonder the United States tennis Association (U.S.T.A) voted it the most outstanding facility in the J.S. in 1992.

The Marching lllini does that nd more. The process of getting the performance to where it is nearly flawless takes uite a lot of time and effort of many people. begins in the winter when the auxiliary groups: the Illinettes, Flags, Twirlers and the ')rum Line, audition. The wind instruments audition in the spring, and incoming -eshmen try out in the summer. The Marching lllini is one of the few collegiate marching lands in the country to hold auditions. Auditioning is only the beginning, though. Many ther phases must be worked through prior to performing. he first step is designing the performance. Each separate performance is designed by a :udent or group of students within the band. The design process includes choosing the msic and outlining the formations. This sounds easy, but with the large amount of eople in Marching lllini the task is much more difficult. This process is overseen by the irector, Gary Smith, but is mainly done by students. )nce the performances have been designed, the band can begin learning and memorizing le routines. Practice for the entire band begins a week before classes start in the fall, and ley run all day. Within this time the band members learn formations for the first football ame and the "3-in-l". During the year, the band practices for an hour and a half every ight and for two hours on Saturday mornings before games. Practice can be tedious at times, but it definitely pays off when we have a great erformance and the crowd enjoys the show," said Tyler Munson, sophomore in FAA. mother benefit of being in the band is that you meet so many people that you would not therwise have ever come into contact with. Marching lllini is a tremendous representation of students who come together to achieve common goal," said Smith. he students who make up this diverse group come from every academic and social spect of this campus, yet they all have the common interest of music. Smith said he elieves that the most exciting part of Marching lllini, from his perspective, is the number f exceptionally talented and dedicated students with the ability to learn music and shows i such a short time. The best part of being in Marching lllini is the thrill of performing," said Michelle Sehr, inior in Engineering. "Knowing that you are a part of something that thousands of eople are cheering for is unforgettable." 1 addition to performing at every home football game, as well as other campus events, ie Marching lllini Drum Line also participates in a competition of collegiate drum lines at Henbrook. The Marching lllini has a great reputation as far as this competition is jncerned because it has won first place three times and has been in the top three every ther year since the competition began. mother big event that Marching lllini participate in is a band festival, which is held on ampus and allows the band to show prospective students what Marching lllini is all bout. This year the festival was held on Oct. 16. J.s far as the reasons go for joining Marching lllini most of the members will say very luch the same thing. Nothing will ever compare to that first game that I was in. The crowd just pushes you to jo your best, and that feeling is just incredible," said Munson. ven though Marching lllini takes an incredible amount of time and energy, the many eople involved in it agree that it is more than worth the effort. — Darren King Members of the Marching lllini make their way into Memorial Stadium just before kickoff.

Kathy and Karen Morris are no exception. Both seniors in Agriculture, they have been running track since high school. It just seemed natural that they would continue when going to college. Karen and Kathy were born on Aug. 1, 1972, in Chrisman, 111. They spent their childhood together and continued to college together. They even have similar majors. Karen is in Agriculture Foods and Business, and Kathy is in Agriculture Communications /Broadcast Journalism. Along with academics, both joined Greek houses and both are still running together. Along with that, they both have earned varsity letters in track and have earned spots on the Big Ten Championship teams. One would think that being on the same team and competing against each other would cause a lot of tension and stress between the Morrises. "There's an unbelievable amount of pressure to do better or just as well as the other, but we deal with it," said Kathy. "Of course there's tension between us, but I would rather have Kathy beat me than anyone else," Karen added. "We tend to push or encourage each other to do our best." Aside from running track, Karen and Kathy are also involved in many other activities. Karen is on the Student Athlete Advisory Board and has been the co-chairperson for two years. Kathy is a member of the Agriculture Communicators of Tomorrow as well as the Women in Communications, Inc. In addition to that, both are cooks at their sororities on the weekends. Between balancing classes, activities, practice every day from 3-5:30 p.m., as well as meets on Saturdays, spare time is a luxury for both sisters. "As far as balancing my life, well, basically I just have to keep my priorities straight. School comes first, then track, and then my social life, which I don't have much of," said Karen. Kathy said, "I didn't know my life was balanced! I just try to keep my priorities straight; that's all I can do." Since graduation is getting close, Karen and Kathy have begun to think about future plans. Karen plans to work for a large corporation in either test kitchens or in product development. Kathy plans to go into television news reporting. "In the distant future, we plan to get married and have families, but it's too far off to know for sure," said Karen. "After being together for our entire lives, life apart after graduation is definitely going to be different." barren King Illinois' Karen Morris competes during the Illinois invitational on September 26.

Members of Block I put on a show during halftime of each game. Block I members hold up their assigned cards to create a picture of a football. Cards must be held at a 45 degree angle below a person's nose. story by Debbie Williams layout by Carol Frantilla Like most other things, it started out small and grew to what it is today. Block I began in 1910 with a mere 150 members. Today, it boasts 1,200 members and 22 Blockheads. Block I is the largest card-holding student cheering section in the country. During the half-time shows, Block I members form pictures that coordinate with the music that the Marching lllini is performing. Some of the more popular figures that are made are Gumby, a blue and orange "I", and the Chief symbol. Block I is sponsored by the lllini Union Board. In addition, Garcia's Pizza donates money to the block by purchasing the pom pons that are given out at the games. Anyone can become a part of Block I. All you have to do is purchase a season ticket in the block section and presto, you're a part of it. Being a Blockhead takes a little bit more, though. In order to become a Blockhead, you must go through an application and interview process in the spring. Currently there are 22 Blockheads, but there can be as many as 25. Within the group of Blockheads, there are five executive board positions and one chairperson. The chairperson's job is to coordinate the block and make sure that it runs smoothly during games. The executive committee takes care of security, making the stunts on the computer, distributing the stunt papers and cards during the game, as well as organizing road trips to away games. The Blockheads meet every Sunday night to coordinate the games. "I wanted to be a Blockhead because I sat in the block for two years and I felt that I could contribute something more to the games if I was a Blockhead," said Tyra Tunelius, senior in Education. Block I was founded for the purpose of cheering on the Fighting lllini and providing half-time entertainment for the crowd. "I think the most important part of Block I is that everybody bonds together to cheer on the team. It feels like we make a difference in the way the team performs knowing that it has people backing it," said Carrie Simek, senior in Engineering and chairperson for Block I. "The most exciting part of being .i member of Block I is the enthusiasm that is felt during the games. The amount of student involvement is also very impressive," said Tunelius. For just a few hours a week, Block I is probably one of the most exciting and fulfilling ways to show school spirit. "Being in Block I is a chance to become more involved in the game and enjoy that aspect of college life with your friends," said Shawn Surber, sophomore in CBA and member of Block I. 214 Athlrhcs Spirit Reigns -Darren King Block I 235 Members of the women's rugby team enjoy the competitive and physical aspects of the game of Women's Rugby team Team members Marti Terrell, Jaycee Schoen and Cathy Kelleyshowtheircomraderie.

The women's rugbyteam plays approximateley eight games each season. story by Debbie Williams layout by Jill Kogan Although hardly anyone is even aware that it exists, the women's rugby team has been around since 1973 and has come to be a rather unique organization. The team is organized each year after recruiting new members at Quad Day. "I found out about the rugby team my freshman year at Quad Day. It sounded like fun so I signed up and I'm still on the team/' said Noreen Vaid, junior in CBA. There are no try-outs; anyone is welcome to just come out and play. Currently, there are approximately 30 women that make up the team. The team is coached by injured players from both the men's and women's teams. The Women's Rugby team plays approximately eight games each season. Their record for this year was 4-3-1 . The team travels to Ohio, Chicago, Ball State and other schools in the Midwest. Practices are held twice a week for a few hours. All of the games are played on Saturdays. Probably the most exciting game of the season for these women was played on Oct. 23 against Madison. Being a strong established team, Madison did not expect to leave with a loss, but the Illinois players crushed Madison 15 - 5. "I contribute this win to the skill on the field that has progressed throughout the year. The team seemed to come together more as the season progressed," said Vaid. "I think the reason why we were so successful this year is because we played as a team, and that is the one thing that is necessary to win. It isn't something that you can be told, it comes from inside," said Susan Whitwell, sophomore in FAA. There are a few disadvantages to being a part of the team, most of which are physical. "The worst part about being on the team is getting bruises two inches long that I will probably have for life," said Cathy Kelly, senior in CBA. However, the physical aspect of the game is what picqued the interest of most of the ruggers. "\ joined the team because I wanted to try something new and different, something with a lot of action and physical activity involved. I definitely found it on the Rugby team," said Kellv. Marti Terrell, junior in LAS, added,"The uniqueness and competitiveness ot the sport captured my interest and evoked my curiosity to learn more about it." Apart from the rigorous practices and games, the women's rugby players have a groat time both in and out of practice. "The best part oi being on the team is that the game is fast and the parties are a blast," said Terrell.

One of our lllini women comes face to face with a Wisconsin player during a hockey game this season. Story by Timmy Shea Layout by Colleen Murray Is there really a Women's Hockey Team at the U of I? Yup. In 1988 the U of I added a Women's Hockey Team to the long list of registered clubs on campus. The club, like a Division team, invites schools and sets up games with universities that have womens hockey organizations and park district teams. The twenty-five members fund their own trips and have to pay for ice time, and are battleing for more recognition on campus to spread the word, and eventually transform the club into a Division participant team. This year the club took second place at a tournament at the University of Minnesota Women's Hockey Invitational and will participate in the Brampton Women's Hockey Tournament in Toronto, Canada. Kim Brown, senior in LAS, has been with the club for three seasons and now serves as the Vice President. "It is a wonderful sport but people still do not know that there is such a thing as women's hockey," Brown said. "I have to say that it was the most rewarding experience of my college career." Membership in the club is not just a matter of signing-up and coasting along. It requires a significant time commitment and, like most worthwhile activities, it costs money. The club meets twice per week to practice, which usually consists of running basketball-like-suicides, working on fundamental skills and running other character building drills. Also the club takes, on average, ten overnight road-trips per school year. In addition it costs eighty dollars a year to join. This does not include purchase costs for all the body armor that the sport requires. The club welcomes new members and they will train and work with anybody who has an energetic attitude about self-improvement and a serious interest in hockey. The fact that all the members have this common bond has made them a close group of friends. "Even though we have a wide variety of majors, we all are friends out of the common interest in hockey," said Brown. Patrica Lee, senior in Agriculture, found out about the club as a sophomore at Quad Day. She was a competitive figure skater in high school. Lee figures the clubs standing is at around five-hundred, but she also judges the clubs progress by how well the new members are doing. "We get a lot of rookies a year, so we like to see improvement in our members. That is the way we really measure our progress," said Lee. Most of us never knew that it existed. But the Illinois Women's Hocke) Team is just one of many registered organizations that serve as resources for students. 218 Athl.ti.s Women Take to the Ice ... ..■.•■ • •■<• --i.- — Cassandra Ecker Women's Hockey 239 :\ % CR > > Waiting for another pie in the face, John Dunn (left), junior in LAS, and Mike Goldstein, freshman in Agriculture, members of Pi Lams, participate in the SAMS (Students Against Multiple Sclerosis) Week Trash-A- Frat-Rat event. You Get Back What You Put In! No where else is this statement more fitting than when talking about the greek system at the University of Illinois. People rush fraternities and sororities for a number of rea- sons. Some join the greek system for a social outlet, some for aca- demic support, some for the leadership opportunities it provides and yet others for the camaraderie pledgeships cultivate in people. For most, pledgeships aren't easy. An unbelievable amount of time and effort is expected out of pledges before they initiate into their re- spective houses. The work that one puts into pledgeship is more than rewarded after initiation. The brotherhood and sisterhood that is cre- ated through the sometimes difficult and often time-consuming pledgeships is unmatched. Many of the friendships that are made will last a lifetime. Many believe that an idealized bond of brotherhood no longer exists. Many greek chapters, particularly sororities, at the University of Illinois have felt considerable pressure from their National organizations recently to reduce the amount of time given to pledgeship. Chapter pledge pro- grams, in some cases, have been reduced to as short as four weeks. Na- tional organizations insist on their desire to fully actualize pledges as soon as possible, while many chapter members argue that the bonding aspects of pledgeship are sacrificed with this reduction. The common phrase that can now be heard around just about any house is that "the real pledgeship starts after initiation." Houses re- quire a lot of everyone who is a member. Just about every day of the week, members are called upon to participate in some activity: giving blood, practicing for Atius, serenading, helping someone study, work- ing on the homecoming float, going to chapter, or just hanging out. Members are constantly asking for each other's time. Despite the many commitments, many believe that the returns are innumerable. Great moments experienced during four years in a house are varied: the feeling that the homecoming float chairman gets when his house's float comes in first, the exhilarating leeling of winning Atius, the warm feeling you get from helping children af the Don Moyer Boys' and Girls' Club, or just knowing that yoi/can always count on a group of people who will help you when you are in a pinch. There are so many different ways that Greeks constantly strive for the best in everything they do. Whether it is academics, or intramurals, social lives or philanthropies, fraternity and sorority members are' constantly called upon to contribute time to their houses. Memb^ts of the greek system constantly put time in to a variety of activities and commitments. Certainly, their efforts never go unnoticed. Members of the University of Illinois greek community always Get Back What They Put In.

Alpha Delta Phi was founded as a Literary fraternity in 1 832 to cultivate the ideals of the "moral, social and intellectual man." The Fraternity quickly spread to the elite Universities of this nation. Today the Fraternity continues on the support of its alumni, which annually donates more per person than any other national volunteer organization. Despite the Fraternity's small size, it boasts more members in the book of Who's Who, than any other international fraternity. The University of Illinois Chapter is housed on the site of the university's first president, in what has been recognized as an historic landmark by the United States Department of the Interior. The men of the Illinois chapter serve as campus leaders in the IFC, Student Government, VIP, Starcourse, Daily lllini, Ma Wan Da, varsity athletics, and numerous honoraries. They annually hold philanthropies to support the Children's Home and Aid Society. The Moose Party and Philanthropy is the largest invite-only party on campus, twice recognized by Playboy Magazine as one of the nations top ten campus parties. Proceeds from the philanthropy go to help the Sierra Club's efforts in environmenal protection.

"—] Homecoming '93 Alumnae Share in Festivities Kappa Chapter of Alpha Xi Delta boasts outstanding alumnae relations, and we showed our graduated sisters just how much we appreciate their sup- port by giving them a great Homecom- ing weekend on Oct. 29-31 . More than 200 Alpha Xi Deltas and their guests gathered at the chapter house early Saturday morning to meet new sisters, see old friends and watch a special presentation of our rush slide show and our Centennial video. In years past, Alpha Xi Delta hosted a Homecoming brunch at the chapter house, but collegiates and alumnae alike felt distanced from the pre-game enthusiasm and spirit brewing outside Memorial Stadium. So this year we combined the traditional house tours with a well-received tailgate party on the west side of the stadium. Then it was off to watch Illinois take on Northwestern on ourown turf. Kappa Chapter had two sections in Memorial Stadium — our collegiate block with the men of Zeta Psi and ouralumnae block. But the festivities were not over yet. Everyone rushed home after the game to grab a flannel shirt and fill a boda before our annual Barn Dance. Many of our alumnae chose the warmth of R & R's or Murphy's over a snowy trip to rural Mahomet, but there were some brave grads who wanted to relive old times roasting marshmallows, crown- ing the new house sweetheart, singing the drinking song and taking a hay ride. Kappa Chapter had its best Home- coming turnout ever in 1993, and from the enthusiasm of our alumnae this year, we expect 1 994 to be even better. I V >'■<.

Tri Delts was founded on Thanksgiving Eve in 1888 at Boston University and came to the University of Illinois in 1 920. From SAA and cheerleading to club and intramural sports, Tri Delts can be seen participating in a number of cam- pus activities. Tri Delts strive to get involved with the University and in the community. Tri Delts philanthropy, Frats at Bat, was a success again this year where we raised money for St. Judes Children's Hospital for cancer research. Whether its studying, watching TV or going to the local hangouts, Tri Delts enjoy being together and maintaining close sisterhood. Greeks 2SS ' Anchormate Night is at the be- ginning of the year when pledges get paired up with a member to guide them through their col- lege years. LURK is our barndance. It's usually held at the beginning of October and includes bonfires, food and dancing. Anchorsplash is our philan- thropy. We raise money for aid to the blind and sight conserva- tion by hosting and coaching a swim meet. We have an annual softball game against Kappa Alpha Theta in the spring. We have sisterhood events throughout the year such as a pumpkin carving contest, holi- day parties, roller skating and bowling. ru-sv ot lllini Stud Seniors: First Row: Sherri Groselak, Jill Wengler, Mary Williams, Julie lannella, Ta Helmbock, Robin Hanrahan, Jennifer Wilson.

Anchorsplash Delta Gamma Raises Money for the Blind Delta Gamma is most known in the Greek world fortheiryearly philanthropic contest known as Anchorsplash. Chris- tened Anchorsplash after Delta Gamma's symbol of the anchor, the event is held yearly and is always well attended. Anchorsplash consists of a week long group of activities culminat- ing in a Saturday afternoon swim team competition. Both fraternities and so- rorities and other campus groups are invited to form a team of members to compete in the 4-event swimming com- petition. The competition itself is preceded by a long week of work by Delta Gamma members. Members circulate to Greek houses making dinner announcements and selling raffle tickets for prizes do- nated by community businesses. Dee Gee's are also paired up as coaches for each participating team, and they are in close contact with team members in the week before the contest. In the middle of this week, Delta Gamma hosts a lip sync contest for the team members and a Mr. and Miss Anchorsplash pagaent in which a team representative competes. All of the procedes from the competition go to their national philan- thropy, Aid to the Blind. Participants take a break during Delta Gamma's annual Anchorsplash competition. The event raises money for their national philanthropy, Aid to the Blind. Greeks 9b Sffi ■ woe B ■ Change In Rush One of the major issues addressed by the University of Illinois Panhellenic and Interfraternity Councils in the past year was Rush. The reason for this focus was due to changes in both groups' Rush structure. While the Interfraternity Council moved towards an even less structured Rush, the Panhellenic Council moved towards a program with more rules than before. Although the structure of each program went in opposite directions, the aim of each was similar — to make Rush more natural. The Interfraternity Council made Rush more natural by following the National Interfraternity Conference recommendations. Rush was changed from a formal Rush process involving three stages with visitation stages to a more informal process which was based on several new concepts. To start with, rush fees by rushees were completely eliminated, a new rush format was adopted, emphasis was shifted to the outside of houses, with events held during the day and IFC encouraged year-round Rush events instead of a two- or three-week formal period of Rush. "Each structural change was made to help the rushee and make rushing easier and more comfortable for him," said Kevin Siblik, 1 993 IFC Vice President of Membership. Rush was further revamped with an increased amount of summer recruitment correspondence, targeting both po- tential rushees and their parents in six separate mailings. The real question is whether or not all of the work put in by IFC to change Rush worked. The statistics speak for themselves. "I was extremely pleased with the results of Rush, as we jumped from 579 new pledges in Fall 1992 to 670 in Fall 1 993. The feedback which I received led me to believe that the new mailings to parents and students emphasizing the benefits of fraternity life and the revamp- ing of the entire process to a more open format both played vital roles in our success," said Siblik. "Hopefully, these new ideas and processes can be continued and improved upon and the fraternity system will continue to grow stronger." Sorority Rush also saw significant changes in 1993. In compliance to the National Panhellenic Councils Rush resolutions passed in 1991, the University of Illinois Panhellenic Executive Board and the Rush Steering Committee changed many of rush traditions on this campus. One resolution limited the budgets of each house; another limited the length of skits that a house could present during a rush party. More visibly, 80% of all sorority women bought an all-campus Rush t-shirt and chapters were no longer allowed to dance, sing or do anything related to Rush outside of the chapter house. As fraternities were moving outside of the house, sororities moved in. The reasoning behind the Panhellenic changes were similar to IFC rationale. The aim was to make Rush more natural. "Basically, we were looking to make rush less superficial. Although the rush parties are superficial in a sense by design, we tried to focus on conversation as much as possible instead of focusing on clothes, decorations, dances and food," said Theresa Robbins, Panhellenic Vice President of Membership. "The plan was to have rushers get to know the rushees instead of just attempting to entertain them. In my opinion, the true benefits of sorority life are much more visible in this manner." The results for Panhellenic were similarly successful. Although the number of women registering for Rush remained about the same as it was in Fall of 1992, the percentage of women pledged increased.

After much practice and effort, Delta Zeta members, along with the men of Sigma Tau Gamma Fraternity were the proud winners of the Atius Sachem's Mom's Day Sing. Members practiced for over two months to perfect their show entitled, "For Pete's Sake." The theme recounted Peter Pan's adven- tures and attempted to remind the audi- ence of the pleasures of childhood that can still be experienced as adults. Dee Zees had the choice of playing either Lost Boys or Pirates. Both groups were costumed appropriately, includ- ing painted scars for the Pirates and dirt for the Lost Boys. Kristy Champion portrayed Peter Pan. Everyone who participated enjoyed the experience. Not only was there the excitement of winning, but there was also the opportunity to make friends with the Sig Tau men. Rebecca Milligan commented that she has made many lasting friendships as a result of partici- pating in Atius. The joy of the win was compounded by the fact that the last time Delta Zeta and Sigma Tau Gamma had been paired together, they had also won first place. The pair was also honored with the Showstopper's Award for especially exciting innovations. "The victory was the best natural high," commented Sandy Jodlowski. It is hoped at Delta Zeta that the winning tradition might be continued. Practice has already begun forthe 1 994 Sing, in which members will participate with Lambda Chi Alpha.

Jetf Hornada Delts at Bat A Winning Weekend The weekend of October 2, 1993 was one of the best athletic weekends in recent years for Delts. Being entered in both the Tri Delt's softball tourna- ment and the Lambda Chi hardball tour- nament made for a busy weekend and a lot of sore bodies. The softball tourna- ment was held Saturday evening. The night was highlighted by a dramatic come-from-behind-victory against Sammy's. Delts went on to win the nail- biting, roller coaster game with a score of 18-17. No let down was seen on Sunday as Delts registered wins against Alpha Kappa Lambda, Phi Kappa Tau, and Alpha Tau Omega to secure the championship. While some Delts were winning the Tri Delt softball championship, we were also playing Alpha Delts in the semi- finals of the Lambda Chi tournament. As many softball players rushed over to the baseball field to offer support, Delts made another come-from-behind vic- tory keyed by Marc Stees and Mike Stuart hits. Delts fell short in the cham- pionship game losing to the host team by one run. In all, Delts played nine games in three days and brought home a first and a second place finish. The weekend only strengthened the existing brother- hood as both events saw the utmost support from members of the chapter Greeks 263 I 3 0> N 264 Grt-i Zeta Tau Alpha is the third largest sorority in the United States with 220 national chapters.

I Unique Cooperation is key at 4-H House The most unique sorority on campus is definitely 4-H house. Many aspects of this house contribute to the validity of such a statement. One of the most salient differences between 4-H and other houses is that 4-H is the only completely cooperative sorority on cam- pus. The members of the house share in both the cooking and cleaning re- sponsibilities. The housekeeping sys- tem is based on seniority which allows the pledges to be in charge of most of the work while the seniors are basically exemptfrom such duties. Self-efficiency and self-government are two other char- acteristics that set 4-H apart from other houses. The 4-H house is the sole sorority in the country that does not have to comply with nationals, but rather it deals with its 900 alumnae. This small number of alumnae results from the select 15-member pledge classes that are chosen each year. These pledges move directly into the house their fresh- man year and usually continue living there throughout the four years. House Commissar Sheila Heide said, "I be- lieve the 55-person membership makes for a more close-knit circle of friends." The members must also be involved in an organization outside of the sorority realm. Unlike other sororities that raise money annually for the same philan- thropy, 4-H decides each year to give money to a newly voted worthy cause. The house was founded in 1 934 for the purpose of providing lower cost living for women and just happened to be funded by 4-H. Now, over 50 years later, 4-H is going strong and still adher- ing to the root goal to help women in need.

Renovations Thetas Undergo Changes Kappa Alpha Theta underwent many internal changes in the last year, both in the structure of their house and in the structure of thierchapteradvisory board. The structure of their house was greatly improved with the time consuming reno- vation of theirbasementfloor. Although the renovation took a lot longer than expected, the results made the wait worthwhile. The renovations to the chapter's advisory board may not have been as visible as the basement renovations, but they certainly were further reach- ing. Theta's started out the fall with a new live-in chaperone, Lori Harrison, who replaced their former house mom. Harrison is unique in the realm of house moms in that she is a Illinois Theta alum who just graduated in 1 991 . She is a University graduate student and is em- ployed by Kappa Alpha Theta to live in the house and serve on the housing board. The advisory board is tri-fo- cused, with the chaperone, Theta alum Annlee Shaw, who is the facilities direc- tor and Theta alum Paige Parkhill, who is the financial director. All of the mem- bers of the board are Kappa Alpha Theta alums, a requirement which Illi- nois only recently began using in selec- tion. Theta members decided to do this in order to insure honesty and dedication in board members, and thus far, the new structure has worked very well. "It's worked out great. We are so happy with them. They work to do the best for us," said President Cassie Phillips. Theta Nationals are also very pleased with the Illinois pilot program, and are looking to implement similar programs on other campuses.

As the name suggests, the new focus is geared to- wards improving literacy in the United States, and the project was initiated by their national organization. Different Pi Beta Phi chapters have chosen differ- ent ways to attack this new focus, and the Illinois Pi Phi's have taken on sev- eral new philanthropic projects in it's promotion. Currently, around 10 Pi Beta Phi's volunteer for the SHARE program at Yankee Ridge School. These volunteers go to Yankee Ridge once a week and read to students who are having problems with reading. Pi Phi's also participate in a volunteer reading group at Lincoln Square Mall, which consists of one-on-one reading with both children and adults. Also, Pi Beta Phi members each donated a children's book to local schools and libraries at Christmas. When Pi Phi's weren't busy working for literacy, they were busy promoting and holding ArrowGames, their fall phi- lanthropy which is an athletic competi- tion for fraternities and for other male campus teams. ArrowGames is a week long competition which includes events such as basketball, billiards, softball, and tug of war. Pi Beta Phi was also the champion for sororities in the 1993 Greek Week competition. They had football black with Alpha Gamma Rho, bid night with Phi Kappa Tau, and par- ticipated in the Atius Sachem Sing with Farmhouse. Cc Greeks 273 Evaluation and Change The Greek Task Force created a whole new facet to Greek life at the University of Illinois in the 1 993-1 994 academic year. Although the results of the Task Force became a reality at this time, the work behind the final result had really begun long before. In 1 991 , Vice Chancellor of Student Affairs Stan Levy convened a Fraternity and Sorority Task Force that submitted its final report to him in March of 1 992. One of the recommendations of this faculty and administator body was the creation of an accreditation plan, and the Greek Task Force was formed from this reccomendation. The Greek Task Force consisted of 1 7 student and faculty members, and the group spent the spring of 1 993 creating an accreditation booklet which outlined basic minimum standards that all members of the Interfraternity Council, Panhellenic Council and Black Greek Council at the University of Illinois must meet. In the Fall of 1 993 the five-section document was given to every fraternity and sorority on campus. The document was to be completed by December 1 , and contained standards in the areas of scholarship, internal chapter operations, external chapter relations, new membership and social responsibility. Chapter presidents were reminded that the goal of the workbook and accreditation system was improvement of Greek life at the University of Illinois. The workbook and the chapter president's work on it was the first of a three part structure of the plan. The self-evaluation is followed by a peer evaluation, which is conducted by a splinter group of the original Task Force. Theresa Robbins, senior in LAS and chairperson to the task force describes the splinter group as "a peer assessment group. This group contains six members each of Black Greek Council, the Interfraternity Council and the Panhellenic Council. The members work to evaluate the completed evaluation workbooks and they verify all of the information contained in the book. Their job, evaluation of their peers, is by no means an easy one, and has required a lot of time and dedication." Members of the Peer Assessment Group have benefitted from their experiences on the group. Chauncey Colquitt, member of Phi Beta Sigma fraternity, said, "Working with the Peer Assessment Group has been more of a learning experience than anything else." Naomi Matsuki, graduate assistant assigned to work on the evaluation, commented that "the University of Illinois' Greek community is one of the first in the country to have a student run evaluation process." The Peer Assessment Group, more than anything, acted as a liasion between the Greek students and the administration. "The peer assessment group helped me see how, i although each branch of the Greek system is different, we each have common ground at the University," said Colleen Lenihan, a member of Kappa Kappa Gamma and the evaluation group. "Because of the strength of the Greek system, I feel that the assessment group's link to the administration has been beneficial in maintaining good status on campus." After evaluation at the peer group level, each chapter is subject to evalution at the advisor level. Chapters will be encouraged to improve in the areas in which they are lacking, and will be given suggestions on how to improve these problem areas before the next evaluation. As a pilot program, the 1 993-1 994 evaluation will be revised to better reflect the necessary standards of the Greek system. The evaluation will be a constant and regular part of Greek life from this year forward, and the Awards ceremony each spring will be a constant reminder of its existence and of the ever higher standards that the Greek system expects of itself. "The Task Force and evaluation have provided a great learning experience for all involved. It has been a long and sometimes difficult process; and in the end it will help all chapters of the Greek community," said Greek advisor Craig Jackson. "The students who have been involved with the Task Force and evaluation deserve a lot of praise and thanks for all of the work, time and understanding."

" — Theresa Robbins Panhellenic Vice President of Membership Kevin Siblik, Michelle Blake, Theresa Robbins and Brian Vogel, members of the 1 993 and 1 994 Executive Boards of the Panhellenic and Interfraternity Councils, spent a lot of time in the last year discussing current Greek issues. The Greek Task Force was a primary topic in many of their conversations.

This special week allows the women of Sigma Kappa to participate in a variety of activities in hopes of giving something back to the commu- nity. The sorority officially kicks the week off by sending violets (their house flower) to both the alumni and adminis- tration living in the area as well as delivering balloons to other sororities and fraternities on campus. A cer- emony is then held the following evening on Nov. 9 in honor of their Founders Day. One of the highlights of the week falls on the third day when the sorority takes the children of the Don Moyer's Boys Home on a bowling trip. Sigma Kappa is a strong supporter of gerontology and therefore dedicates the fourth day to visiting the Garwood old age facility in Champaign. The week concludes with their annual lolli- pop sale on the Quad which has raised as much as $500 in profits for their national philanthropy, Alzheimer's re- search. The President of Sigma Kappa, )herie Fetro, said, "The whole house is involved in this year's week of giving. Although each member is only required to do two activities for the week, most people want to do many more because they view it as being fun and important." Sigma Kappa is extremely proud of their efforts to give rather than just receive.

Each house's actual dedication to its charity, community service or cause may or may not be obvious. The women of Phi Mu, on the other hand, although de- voted to their official philanthropy, the Children's Miracle Network, pride them- selves on their generosity to several volunteer projects each year. "A lot of houses do their philanthropy just to do it," Michelle Lee, junior in Agriculture and Phi Mu's Philanthropy Chair, said. "But many of us, like my Assistant Chair, [Karin Richter] volun- teer time outside of house activities... most of the events we do are not re- quired, normally we have no problems getting people out." This year, Phi Mu and Pi Lambda Phi co-hosted the successful Super Sloppy Double Dare, inviting guests to partici- pate in a model of the television game show. Proceeds went to the American Heart Association. "We raised a lot of money," Lee said. "I thought it was especially fun, since it was my first event as Philanthropy Chair." More events included a Thanksgiv- ing blood drive, Christmas carolling at nearby nursing homes and the Spring Yuker Tournament, Phi Mu's annual fund-raiser for the Children's Miracle Network. "I enjoyed carolling best of all our activities," Lee said. "The people [in the nursing homes] are so thankful. It feels good to brighten their holiday." ik ki, Greeks 285 I ^ ■ 1H<> Greeks The Omicron Chapter of Chi Omega was founded at the University of Illinois on April 5, 1900. We are currently the nation's largest Greek women's fraternity. Chi Omega concerns itself itself with a variety of activities, including philanthropies, sisterhood events scholarship, and more. This year we participated in a fund raiser for the Matthew House childern, a walk to benefit AIDS victims scholarship week, Professor/TA dinner, Homecoming Court, a pledge spaghetti dinner, and many exchanges Life in Chi Omega means friendship and laughter, hard work and high standards, opportunity and growth.

They started out early in the semester when they sponsored a mud volleyball tournament with Phi Sigma Kappa. The tournament was a huge success, with many fraternities, sorori- ties and other student groups partici- pating, and all of the proceeds were donated to the Don Moyer Boys and Girls Club. While the warm weather continued, Chi Omega went out in full force and walked. They walked through Champaign in the First Annual AIDS Walk which commemorated AIDS Awareness Week. All proceeds from the walk went to benefit AIDS research, and Chi Os won the Greek System contest by collecting the most money for the project. Money was collected by individual walkers in the form of pledges. Internally, Chi Os often woke up to the sound of hammering, as their house underwent several renovations in early 1994. Externally, their social calendar was full with the Atius Sachem Sing, bid celebration night with Delta Tau Delta and football block with Delta Chi.

DELTA TAU DELTA: FIRST GREEK LETTER SOCIETY <^*L he first Greek Letter Society at the University of Illinois was introduced in 1872 as the Upsilon Prime chapter of Delta Tau Delta. The existence of this fraternity was kept a secret for the first few years but, nonetheless, it established much influence in campus politics. The fraternity used its power to gain control of the experimental student government but they were not satisfied. They wanted complete control of the government and no faculty intervention . The administration finally gave in to the Delts, who, consequently had no fraternity rivals on campus. This situation caused students to form either "Pro" - Delt or "Anti" - Delt factions. As a result, the administration tried to suppress all secret societies without officially banning them. The Delts found it neccessary to go "underground" and their charter was withdrawn in 1879 by the national governing body. It finally was reestablished in 1894 as the Beta Upsilon chapter. 291 «# i ■ &&£■*;* m This j>oem appeared in an early edition of the Sophograph, the former name of the Illio. It speaks ahont the pledge that students had to sign guaranteeing they wouldn't join a secret society. ^ *?tf THEFRAT'S SOLILOQUY To sign, or not to sign; that is the question: — Whether it is nobler in the mind to suffer The jeers and taunts of ignoble preps; Or to take up arms against a dozen profs, And by opposing end them? — To skip: — to bounce, No more; and, by a skip, to say we end The long nights and longer days of hard study That Sophs are heir to, — 'tis a consummation Too utterly utter. To bounce, to skip; To skip! perchance, go home; ay, there's the rub; For in that going home what toils may come, When we have shuffled off this college life: Must give us pause. There's the respect That lengthens out this four-years life. For who would bear the mocking laugh of friends, Preps' and Freshies' scoffs, the old man's contumely, When he himself might his quietus make With a mere signing? Who would all this bear! To sign, ensure a common student's life, But that the dread of what succeeds the bounce, — The unrelenting scorn of the old man, Whose lash he ne'er escapes, — delays the Sig (-) Nature and makes him bear those ills he has, Than fly to others that he knows well of? This "I hereby swear" makes cowards of us all. And so the humble prayer in the "petition" Was sat down on by the trustees' decree, And fraternities of great secresy From this regard their lives quick ebbed away And lost their honest being. But soft you , now! "Under the roses!" Oh! Frat! This, thy motto, Sign all that may be required. 292 Sigma Chi.

During his time here as an undergraduate - he was local editor of the Daily Illini, junior orator, editor of the Sophograph class poet, editor in chief of the Daily Illini, member of Phi Beta kappa honora fraternity and member of Alpha Tau Omega fraternity. After graduation, Clark taught in the Champaign school s-y^temT^tre instructor of English at the U of I and eventually became Professor of Rh was the originator and first teacher of most of the courses npw offered in ttao*i After serving as Dean of Undergraduates from 1901 -]l909, hejb^prfm" and held that position until 1931. He was the first Dean o a very exemplary one at that. He did many things for his sf considered unthinkahle. He made personal visits to studentS^jjng in residence ha fraternity houses and he also made it a habit to visit the sick* every day. He successfully fought hazing during his career. Maria Leonard was Dean of Women from 1933 to 1945. She was the founder of Alpha Lambda Delta and an alumna of Pi Beta Phi. ■HitdiiJi: T. A. Clark was the first Dean of Men and held this position from 1901 - 1927. Clark was a strong supporter of fraternities and he believed the members to be the eenter of student life and amongst the most influential people on campus. 295 *•-* 296 This 1941 handbook for rushees contained vital information for women interested in rushing and hopefully pledging a sorority.

The main change which affected the Interfratemity Council was the transi- tion which occurred in the Greek Affairs Office. John Martinez, former advisor to I FC, transferred to another Unviversity position, and the advising team of Craig Jackson and Carmen Ahlers was hired to replace him and Adlon Jorgenson, retired Panhellenic advisor. Greek Af- fairs was subsequently restructured, with both Ahlers and Jackson advising different parts of each group. The changeover and restructuring occurred during the summer of 1 993, a crucial time for IFC recruitment. One of the main focuses of this year's execu- tive board was on rush and recruitment, and the bulk of the work for fraternity rush occurred at the time of this transi- tion. Despite all of the change, the Interfratemity Council did continue many traditions, such as New Greek Instititute, which is a seminar for new members, Greek Week, Homecoming parade and the Greek Risk Management Commit- tee. They also added a successful new activity in the Adopt-A-School program. Through this joint Panhellenic/IFC pro- gram, tutors from the Greek system adopted the Urbana Middle School and worked for the semester with individual students. The program was highly suc- cessful, and Illinois, as a pilot campus, has become a model for other Greek systems who are hoping to undertake the community service project. ■■MEMM^H Greeks 307 • o a •. \ s 1 o U M 1 in o M o 1 ctf Greeks BGC began with eight historically and predominantly African-American Greek letter fraternities and sororities: Alpha Phi Alpha Fraternity Inc., Alpha Kappa Alpha Sorority Inc., Kappa Alpha Psi Fraternity Inc., Omega Psi Phi Fraternity Inc., Delta Sigma Theta Sorority Inc., Phi Beta Sigma Fraternity Inc., Zeta Phi Beta Sorority Inc. and Sigma Gamma Rho Sorority Inc. In 1993, Beta Phi Pi Fraternity became a member of BGC. BGC was designed to act as a forum to discuss issues of mutual interest and concern to all nine organizations which currently hold membership. However, each organization is autonomous and conducts it own programs for the benefits of the campus and the community. Some of this year's projects include a can shake for the M.A.L.E. project and the S.I.S.T.E.R.S. program of Planned Parenthood, which promotes education and awareness to prevent sexually transmitted diseases and teen pregnancy in our community. BGC also made a monetary donation to A Woman's Place in Champaign. BCG also co-sponsors activities with other organizations on campus to promote unity among all African- American students on campus. Some of those organizations include If Not Now Movement, Men of Impact, Women of Color Core Community and the local chapter of the NAACP. BCG is also a member of the National Pan-Hellenic Council, which was established in 1 930 to promote the unanimity of thought and action among the eight historically African-American fraternities and sororities. This year, BCG sent two delegates to the 57th Annual Convention of the National Pan-Hellenic Council in Louisville. Ky. Black Greek Council: First Row: April Williams, Grenita Hall.

Jasor Hoag Aggers Activities and academics keep members busy Alpha Gamma Rho boasts some of the strongest bonds of brotherhood in any Illinois fraternity. The reasons for this boast are various, mainly stem- ming from the fact that they are a pro- fessional fraternity. Being a profes- sional fraternity means that Aggers re- cruit using two main criteria. They recruit from students who have been accepted to the College of Agriculture and from students who either are from a rural environment or have a genuine interest in rural America. "It isn't as if everyone who is in our house lives on a farm, but most of us do have a common , rural background," said sophomore Al- pha Gamma Rho member Cliff Peterson. Aggers share more than just a com- mon background, they also share many of the same classes at the U of I. A typical Agger will have at least three or four members of his house in each of his classes, and there are always a lot of older members who have taken the same classes in past semesters. This fact, coupled with the fact that 95% of Alpha Gamma Rho members live in- house, creates a helpful learning envi- ronment. "There are always a lot of people around who can answer your questions and to study with for exams," said Peterson. At a time when many people are questioning the academic benefits of fraternities, Alpha Gamma Rho seems to be proving them wrong. Aggers have a lot of external activi- ties which keep them busy, including their yearly Fall philanthropy, the Foxy Lady contest. Sororities sponsor an individual from each house who com- petes in the contest which consists of a short speech and interview. The ten finalists are then given an impromptu question and the winner is determined from the total score. The 1993 Foxy Lady was Joella Foster, representing Gamma Phi Beta. All proceeds from the event are donated to the Marching lllini. Greeks 311 Alpha Gamma Delta members strive for succes in the academic department, both for individual accomplishment and to maintain the fourth highest grade point average among all sororities. Last year Alpha Gams captured first place in Pi Kappa Alpha's SoccerTour- nament, Sigma Chi's Derby Day's, Delta Chi's Flag Football Tour- ^^^^^^ nament, Alpha Kappa Lambda's Sorority Tug- of-war and Greek Week 1993, in conjunction with Alpha Tau Omega and Sigma Tau Gamma fra- ternities. Annual philanthropic events included a benefit for juvenile diabetes, in- volving a Halloween Party and a Walk-a-Thon. Alpha Gams fill their so- cial schedule with a Foot- ball Block, Barn Dance, numerous exchanges, two Formals, Plegde Dance and Atius Sing. Alpha Gams are also rep- resented in academic honoraries such as Golden Key and Mortar Board, business and pro- fessional fraternities, Stu- dent Ambassadors and the Student Alumni As- sociation, lllini Football Recruiters, Diamond Girls, lllinettes, Flag Corps and Women's Soc- cer Team.

No, the ten lucky women were not on their way to break, but they were in store for a fun four day adventure during which they would receive the most prestigious award offered to a University Panhellenic. The award received was given at the National Panhellenic Conference (NPC), which met this year in Orlando. The award given to the University of Illinois was the biannual NPC award for "overall excellence." Virginia Stafford, chairperson of the NPC Awards Committee, said the university's Panhellenic Council won the award because their application was "absolutely top notch. They were superior in program and presentation. They were just head and shoulders above most of the other applications we had." The awards application was completed in the spring of 1993 by members of the nine-person executive board and now- retired advisor Adlon Jorgenson, who was "absolutely integral in our winning the award. She answered all of our questions," said Theresa Robbins, 1993 Vice President of Membership. Jorgenson accompanined the nine member Panhellenic Board to Orlando to receive the award. The group actually received the award on Saturday night at a banquet, and they spent most of Friday and Saturday meeting with their national officers and attending conferences. Meeting the National officers from each of their individual houses was thrilling for the women who attended, for they were finally able to see the faces behind the many traditions that they had heard so much about. Although Friday and Saturday were quite busy, the ten women were able to break away on Sunday and explore Disney World and Unviersal studios. The Executive Board had a great time running around Florida, basking in the sun and just spending time together. Although the return to Champaign was chilly, the Executive Board was anxious to get home and show the University of Illinois the award they received. "I felt a lot of pride when we attended the next Panhellenic representative meeting. Each and every member of each and every sorority contributed to this award, and I was so honored to be there to accept it," said Lynne McKee, 1993 Panhellenic Council President and Kappa Delta member.

Many organizations at the University of Illinois did just that this year and the campus as a whole, benefitted from the results. The Student Alumni Association started Siblings Weekend this year. In the spirit of Mom's and Dad's day, siblings were invited down to spend a weekend on campus and activities were planned that they could at- tend with their big brothers and sisters. The Residence Hall Asociation sponsored many activities this year but one of the most effective was the National Collegiate Alcohol Aware- ness Week. The highlight of the week's activities was the drunk driving simulator. Students were able to drive a car that reacted to decisions as if the driver was under the influence of alcohol. The American Advertising Federation cosponsored the first ever Col- lege of Communications Job Fair. Students interested in jobs in Com- munications were able to speak to professionals in many different fields ranging from broadcast journalism to print media. Once again, WPGU conducted Operation Santa Claus. Radio personalities asked for toy or monetary contributions from listeners so disadvantaged children in the area could have their wish come true for Christmas. The factor that ties these organizations together is a sense of doing to benefit others and, in turn, gaining a greater appreciation for the time and energy others devote to the university's organizations.

Who would have thought after spending countless hours inside a room no bigger than a dorm office that a group of individuals would be able to pro- duce one of the top 10 yearbooks in the country and earn the distinction as a Pace- maker? The Associated Collegiate Press annu- ally awards this distinction, considered to be the most prestigious award for colle- giate publications. Each book entered receives critiques in five different areas: writing/editing, layout/design, photogra- phy, concept/essentials and coverage. Judges from a variety of schools through- out the country are selected to review each year's entrants. The 1992 lllio "It Takes All Kinds," re- ceived an All American rating with four marks of distinction in the original round of compe- tition. The rating qualified the book for further judging where it was named a Pacemaker. Other books receiving the award included perennial winners like the University of Ala- bama Corolla, Kansas State University's Royal Purple and Northwest Missouri State University's Tower. Other Big Ten Confer- ence winners included Purdue University's Debris and Indiana University's Arbutus. The 1992 lllio was the first lllio to be entered into competition during the modern era of student journalism. "To be considered one of the best the first year we entered the competition was a great honor. We knew it was a good book and just hoped others would feel the same," said Helen Vlahos 1992 Editor in Chief. The book also received a certificate of merit award for printing and graphic arts from the Printing Industries of America Inc. The lllio also earned this award for the 1986 yearbook, "Academe." — Sean Reed Helen Vlahos, editor-in-chief of the 1992 Pacemaker-winning lllio, helps this years' editor-in-chief, Bob Gonzalez, work on an Academic section layout for the 1992 book.

A Comparison Bromley Versus Everyone Else Why live in Bromley Hall, rather than in a University Residence Hall (URH) or other private housing? Well, it depends on personal preference. "Here they've got private bathrooms," Aaron Pomis, sophomore in LAS and honorary — "So many of my friends are here that I practically live here" — Bromley resident, said. "The rooms are not as segregated as in IT (lllini Tower, another private residence hall), but they're more private than in the [Univer- sity] residence halls." For those looking to live in co-ed housing with bigger rooms and a com- paratively social atmosphere, "I'd say it has a lot to offer," Craig Robertson, junior in Engineering, said. "And we are the only dorm with a pool." Bromley Hall boasts Nautilus, aerobics and swimming thanks to a Nautilus Fitness Center, its most out- standing feature. The center is a part of the building with its original plan and beginning as student housing. Cost, certainly, contributed to many a student's (parent's, rather) housing decision. "It is more expensive than the dorms," Alice Heaton, Resident Advi- sor and sophomore in LAS, said. "The extra cost covers embellishments such as carpeted floors, housekeeping and the pool."

Major Changes Bromley Residents Get Help Coping With Academia Many students found it difficult to seek help when they needed it, whether it be in making it through some of U of I's difficult courses, planning their aca- demic careers or managing emotional stress. Bromley Hall made this trouble- some task one step easier for its resi- dents by bringing help right to their doorstep. "We try to have resident volunteers to tutor, setting up times for workshops on different subjects," Resident Direc- tor Tin Hua said. "And, if necessary, Bromley will pay to hire tutors from outside." Besides straight academics, resident advisors coordinated guest speaker vis- its, such as this year's self-defense workshop, an interactive informational session. In fact, many University Resi- dence Hall guest speakers made stops at Bromley as well. The resident advisors in particular served as counselors and friends, help- ing students orient themselves with the U of I. "We have training a week early each year," Alice Heaton, RA and sopho- more in LAS, said. "We go through the Private Residence Hall RA Training Session as well as a special one for Bromley." Also, to make students feel at home at the U of I, "we sponsor a lot of University activities, such as intramural sports," Craig Robertson, resident ad- visor and junior in Engineering, said. "We are making a large effort to encour- age involvement of our residents by our support of these activities." m ] vrrf Leslie Minor and Karen Wesolowski enjoy the ambience and the gourmet food that Bromley dining hall offers.

Social Events Students Make Friends Through Hall Activities As a private, non-communal bathroomed residence hall, Bromley strove to avoid the common trap of making residents so private they felt segregated. "Each of the RA's (resi- dent advisors) have at least two [social activity] projects a month, so there's always something going on," Tin Hua, Resident Director, said. "We also have a student government which is involved more in-depth with fun activities." Interaction among floor members in addition to regular all-Hall activity was stressed. RA Alice Heaton, sopho- more in LAS, "did a Murder Mystery party in October with one other floor," she said. "It was a lot of fun. Everyone dressed up and had a good time with the role-playing." RAs, in addition to their expected rotation duties of night watch, front desk clerk, tour guide and, when needed, counselor, took on the role of social instigator, sometimes taking the risk of initiating a new activity. "I didn't think at first that people would take to it, but it really went very well," Heaton said of the Murder Mystery night. Particularly because the majority of residents were freshmen and sopho- mores, Bromley Hall put an effort into creating an active as well as interactive get-to-know-your-neighbors social scene, making students feel at home at the U of I. Ninth floor residents Ryan Marquie, Ed Goetting, Kevin Amundson and Dan Bourgeois participate in a Murder Mystery Party.

The program is five days a week from 2-6 p.m. While other University students go home for 'inter and spring break, Gulledge stays in town to continue the program. He understands the importance of providing kids safe and fun environment. As Gulledge says, "Everything you do with kids makes an impression on them. I want to be smembered for helping other people not just physically but also by influencing them mentally." comes as no surprise that Gulledge predicts his future to be tied somehow to children. Upon graduation he hopes to work 1 a recreational type field.

I actually perform daily affirmations in order to keep reminding myself hat I am worth it." rhrough the various organizations and clubs that she is involved in, Woods hopes to pass on a positive mental attitude to )ther people of color.

He devotes many hours to activities for the solitary reason of helping ithers, not his resume. Ramirez lends his time to numerous selfless organizations with the intention of empowering tudents and improving the quality of campus life. Ramirez is proud of his work as the Academic Vice President of Student Government and the Student Representative on Council of Undergraduate Education. These positions allow him to address issues that are crucial for the betterment of indergraduate education. Ramirez along with ten other subcommittees serve as liaisons between the students and the ''ice Chancellor. His mission to improve the undergraduate experience is also effected by his work as a member of the nclusivity Committee task force. The purpose of this organization is to encourage diversity in classrooms. although Ramirez is up to his neck with responsibilities, he didn't hesitate for a second when he was approached to lend a land in coordinating the Aids Awareness Week. Ramirez is helping sponsor a candlelight vigil as well as trying to raise noney to bring the Aids Quilt to campus. Jever satisfied to sit idle for a moment, Ramirez already has added another cause to his list. Next fall, Ramirez will be the iead of the Friendship Program for Volunteer Illini Projects. The program pairs up a student with an underprivileged hild. The student serves as a role model for the child. They attend activities together sponsored by the program which iromotes the building of a mutually beneficial friendship. Campus concerns are the main focus of the organizations in which Ramirez is involved. "Student Government is in reality community service. The students of University of Illinois make up a community. This is the type of field I would like to xplore. I want to be able to were my birkenstocks while I work." Not surprisingly, in ten years Ramirez hopes to be mployed by a social service agency. He is unsure as to whether he would like to end up in a school or real life setting. But he idea of being the Dean of Students at a University in either Oregon or Washington State really appeals to him. lowever, before Ramirez can realize such a goal he plans on going to graduate school in social work. Vhile most people are going somewhere to bask in heat of sun kissed beaches for their Spring Break, Ramirez will be oing to educate migrant farm workers in South Texas. His goal is to inform them of their rights in order for them to try nd improve their living conditions. Community is extremely important to Ramirez. He is not afraid of hard work for the sake of others. This notion is foreign :> a society that rewards the individual. Christopher Ramirez is a rarity.

For these graduates getting back what they put in takes on many meanings as each person has his or her own sense of satisfaction. For some, the satisfaction comes at the time of graduation when that diploma is handed over. For others, the accomplishments outside of the realm of academics are necessary in order to fulfill the sense of gratification. This year, students were provided with many opportunities to give their input on many relevant issues. At the beginning of the year. money became the point of interest as students gathered on the Quad to formally protest the tuition hikes that were proposed by the admin- istration. These hikes would not have affected the senior class, but se- niors were still found protesting with those who would be affected. Once again, seniors saw the emergence of the Chief debate as well as the proposal of changing the bar entrance age to 21. Opinions on both sides of the issur provides seniors as well as other students the oppor- tunity to voice their opinion and fight for the results they wanted. All of these things as well as the many other opportunities for seniors to give thier input all contribute to the sense of satisfaction that is re- ceived. What seniors put in is four (or more) years of hard work and dedication to academics as well as other activities and what they get out is not only an education but many friends and experiences that will help build lives and futures. Clockwise from upper left, Carrie Trimble, Christina Ketcham, Deanna Ciccarelli, Angie Bialkowski and Chanin Magill, all graduating seniors, met each other when they entered the university four years ago. They formed a close bond as freshmen and are now living in an apartment together as seniors. Graduates Editor Debbie Williams X You Get Back What YQT J Put in...

During the eek of Sept. 26 - Oct. 2, 1993, DST Donsored a series of enlightening educa- Dnal, public service and social events for ie African-American and Latino students i indulge in. The week began on Sunday ght as DST sponsored a Style Show with e Senior Citizens of Champaign-Urbana. m Evans, senior in ALS, said, "The Style now was so nice and elegant. It was art-warming to see old and new get gether and strut the newest fashions on age. Those seniors were full of life and essed better than half of the students I how!" At the beginning of the week, DST held a bake sale, a canshake for sickle cell anemia and a graduate school seminar for students of color. The proceeds of the bake sale went to the Women's Shelter of Champaign-Urbana for battered and abused women. Things got steamy at DST's "Hot Sex on a Platter", where students came together to discuss male/female relations on campus. "I feel that this was a positive and fun program which should be held more often because it sincerely helped black men and women on campus relate to each other in a sexually serious atmosphere," said Robert Stanford, sophomore in LAS. On Thursday, DST planned a "Sistah's Doin' It Together" workshop for the Afri- can-American Women on campus. "We as black women need more unity. There is too much pettiness and hostility floating among us and this workshop was an excellent way to start the healing process. I learned a lot about myself in relation to the sisters on this campus and as a result, I feel a bond between us," said Kristen Malone, member of Delta Sigma Theta. Don't think that the week was all work and no play because to kick off the weekend, DST held their annual "STUDS" event, featuring students on campus, hosted by Nicole Luckett. Students got to shake their groove thangs at DST's Union Party, held Saturday night. Tamiko Foster, president of Delta Sigma Theta, said, "The focus of the week is to show people that we are a public service organization involved in the community. Our hope is that people see DST as an organization committed to making a visible impact in Champaign-Urbana through quality programs that make a difference."

You can see yourself laying with the tassels on your hat during le ceremony and flashing your pearly 'hites for the myriad of cameras. The roud faces of loved ones crane their ecks to see you in the uniformed row of odies, alert for your name. hen you wake up because, friend, you're n the FIVE year plan. Yes, it is a travesty f justice. One, two, three, four, five (add bout ten more if you switched from 3ligious studies to nuclear engineering uring your junior year because there are few basic math and science classes ou'll need before you get to the good tuff). Switching majors is the most opular reason for attending this institution f higher learning for more than four years. , opted for the five year plan because I st didn't know what I wanted to do. And jesides, one more year of partying and j/ing off of the parents wasn't all bad," (aid Bob Atkinson, senior in LAS. Anyway, you decide not to kick yourself for taking underwater basket weaving the first two years while trying to find direction in life, because, what the heck, you finally found it, and better late than never. Plus, you'll have more time for merrymaking with friends (the new ones you'll make because everyone else will have graduated) and one more chance to experiment with the art of conjuring up money out of thin air for tuition. Somewhere down the line, after you've worked and worked (and whistled here and there), changed majors and colleges fifty times and fulfilled every dirty rotten requirement, you end up walking the aisle beaming more than anyone because you of all people have truly earned the right to bask in the glory of the day. story by Lavina Kraujalis layout by Kristen Werth Graduates 413 CBA Julie Adamek Mundelein Tracie Ainchman Country Club Hills Steven Alesch Wheaton Peter Alfrejd Sterling Lia Allen Chicago Kevin Alsup Versailles Derek Anderson Fallon John Arvanitis Addison Michelle Auge Downers Grove Michael Awad Charlottesville.

Last Calls! Is the night over ilready? Your mind races, or rather, ponders slowly, on the Events of the evening. You've been to so many bars and have jiad a few too many beers that you're not even sure which estab- ishment you're in at this time. All of your friends are in the same predicament as you stumble towards the door (it's 1 :00 a.m. by tow), surprised that you've even made it until closing time. As 'ou and your friends proceed home, maybe stopping for a bite to >at to curb those drunk munchies, you reflect upon the evening's »vents. After all, you and your friends have just survived a bar ;rawl. Organizing a bar crawl is an exciting alternative to just a boring light out to the bars. Careful planning isn't always the key to a uccessful bar crawl though. "It took my roommate and I forever d organize a feasible bar crawl considering time restraints and ie number of bars we wanted to go to. It almost wasn't worth it," aid Emily Downes, junior in LAS. Spontaniety seems to work letter for many. Danielle Guebert, sophomore in LAS, said, "We sually plan on going to more than one bar, but we don't know ,hich ones until we're ready to leave each bar." he mood of the people you're with also helps to determine /here you'll end up. "I prefer to start out a mellow bar and work iy way through campus ending up somewhere on Daniel Street d meet up with other friends," said Debbie Sokolow, sophomore lFAA. )ne of the drawbacks to going on a bar crawl is that it takes lany hours, especially if you plan on hitting every bar on cam- us. The time usually spent at each bar can vary between 15 nd 30 minutes, which provides for just enough time to down at jast one drink (and a stop at the bathroom if necessary). nother constraint of bar crawling is the money factor. As ollege students, many of us do not have enough cash to spend great deal of money at the bars. This is especially true if beer is ot the choice drink of the evening. "Bar crawls are only cool hen there are quarter beers everywhere," said Stephen lacaitis, senior in LAS. "If I don't have a lot of money and still ant to go out, I just don't drink, or don't drink as much," said okolow. ar crawls can be a most memorable, or not so memorable, xperience for a group of friends. Still, to thoroughly appreciate le nightlife in Cham-bana and to say you've had the Big Ten Dllege experience, you should attempt at least one bar crawl efore graduation. tory by Debbie Williams lyout by Mindy Dougan Crawls do not always end in a bar or late night eating establishment. Seniors Chris Lopez and Sonja Peterson proceed to an afterhours party when they've finished a Friday evening tour of the campustown bars.

The Dreaking-ground of a new democratic adminis- ration instituted a promise of improvement and an attitude of reconstruction. The university DOpulation, the young and educated leaders of omorrow, were actively engaging in the move- ment toward a better, more aware and equality- conscious country. Oh, really? 'We have to give women a chance; otherwise hey won't shut up," Austin Victor, sophomore in r AS, said. "Give them 12 inches; they won't want he mile." The words of a sensitive university nan, eh? \\ the University of Illinois, students and faculty )ride themselves in the diversity which pervaded campus activities and daily life. However, a concept of openness is still relatively new. 'erhaps the above remark, made in jest, does lot accurately assess the position of women in raditionally male-dominated fields; yet, realisti- cally, signs of prejudice are still evident. Many emale engineering students come up against, or example, a math or science professor who xcuses his lecture on the side of the room with lore men. Or perhaps she finds herself hesitat- ig to ask questions in class. Often, in fact, when he does ask, she is undermined and criticized >r doing so, likely by a professor who encour- ges men to be outspoken. Traditional gender roles defined such fields of study and often limit an individual's potential. Math and science courses are still not only composed largely of male students but also exhibite a mentality which "leaves women out," Roscoe Pershing, Associate Dean of Engineer- ing, said. "We're trying to overcome the subtle discrimination which sneaks into conversation, involving certain sayings, certain expectations." Many college students and faculty members are concerned about this issue and look for ways to challenge academic stereotypes before they lead to discrimination in the work place. "We're anxious to nurture the environment to encourage more women to become involved in engineering," Pershing said. "It's getting better, I think. The female students we do have are excellent. The are good leaders who have found the engineering enterprise exciting." The male to female ratios in many fields of study indicate that male domination is slowly tapering off. "I'm glad that more females are entering what has been traditionally dominated by men because I can think of so many times that I've been saved in a chemistry class by a female," said Mike Pietsch, junior in LAS. Women are gradually closing the gap which separates the sexes in classrooms and conse- quently in many work fields and other meeting grounds. According to Pershing, the trend of women in engineering is increasing. By 1993, more than 800 women contributed to U of I's Engineering department. This indicates a still low 16% of the total; nonetheless, "it is a growing number," Pershing said. "It will get better as we get more women in the field, particularly as faculty members. Unfortunately, with the recent downsizing of faculty, it's been difficult to hire more, making adding women to the faculty that much harder. But we're confident that it will get better." In fact, according to a study in Women Engineer, Winter 1993, the opportunity prospects for women in engineering looks positive. The numbers of particularly all engineering jobs are expected to increase substantially. Many companies are developing a strong commitment to the recruitment, retention and development of women. In tackling this heavy task, "the analysis of work and family issues is a growing concern," Sarah O'Dell of Texaco said. "While our company and the industry in general have seen more women entering over the last several years, more companies will address these issues to recruit women engineers." story by Vida Riskus and Jennifer West layout by Kristen Werth Kimberly Wesbecher Leroy Laura Wessel Addison Michelle Whitehead Winnweiler, Germany Linda Widmar Oe Pue Elizabeth Wiet Western Springs Malika Williams Cairo Scott Williams Oak Park Tiffany Williams Woodridge Andrew Wilson Dunlap Jennifer Wilson Elmhurst Terri Winkates Norridge Armon Withey Zion Karoline Wojtalik Niles Brian Wolf Chicago Laura Wolfe Elgin Jeff Wolschlag Urbana Melissa Wolski Glen Ellyn Jenny Wong Morton Grove Tony Wong Chicago Eva Wright Springfield Julie Yadgar Park Ridge Siu Shan Yeung Taikoo Shing, Hong Kong Chad Yokel Roseville Jennifer Young Elmhurst Kimvalyn Young Chicago Carlen Yuen Chicago Laurie Zinick Calumet City Brian Zolynas Boulder, Colo.

This reassuring :bntact was followed by the divinely ispired and passionately delivered words iod is very angry with the Pope and Bill :inton!" Yes, the famous Mad Max, Quad ijeacher, had chosen lucky Patrick to be ije recipient of his wisdom. [lax, a Christian minister, considers it his jty to inform university students nation- ide of what he views to be the downfall of 'ligion and the pervasiveness of sin iferywhere. He is known to travel to jfferent campuses, includs the U of I, iending a few days at each to enlighten teners with his views. He also includes ipbits such as "homosexuals are goin' raight to hell!" and draws interesting pmparisons to alert the world of its sinful ays: "Hillary Clinton is the modern day izebel!" Some students like Jennifer Distlehorst, alumna, found they were unable to comprehend the deep message of Max's profundities. "He sat there talking about his wife cooking liver and how he was getting sick from it," Distlehorst said. "And then somehow he used that story to lead into the Second Coming and Armaged- don. It made no sense." Max might find such attacks on his schol- arly being to be unjustified, not to mention offensive. He would have it be known that "he has a physics degree," Andy Foland, senior in LAS, said. "He uses it too, brandishes it like a sword." On the other hand, exercise of freedom of speech by other Quad preachers, such as Cliff Knechtle, has elicited more genuine support. Cliff's dogmatic evangelical speeches and question-answer sessions were "very well received on this campus," Scott Kelton, Intervarsity Christian Fellow- ship staff member and alumnus, said. "He has a good rapport with students, and he likes to answer questions students have about Christianity." Campus Crusade for Christ and Intervar- sity Christian Fellowship co-sponsored Cliff's appearance on the U of I Quad. Cliff, a native of Boston, is a professional speaker on Christianity, travelling to 30 campuses each year. U of I students discussed key modern issues with Cliff during his visit. Reliability of the Bible, Cliff's assertion that is was the literal truth "inspired by God," spurred debate among active listeners. Also, Cliff and several Moslem students argued different world views with a fervor. "He talked about exclusivity, the fact that Christianity is not compatible with other religions, such as Islam," Kelton said. "Christianity is the only way to God." story by Vida Riskus layout by Kristen Werth Sponsored by Intervarsity Christian Fellowship, Cliff Knechtle encourages students to "Ask Cliff" questions concerning Christianity.

Carol Zoller Ingleside Bike Path Perils story by Vida Riskus layout by Kristen Werth Innocent students victimized by campus bike paths A white-chalk outline of a person adorns a bike path-sidewalk crossway. At the bottom of the drawing, a single word, printed in large letters, makes clear the fate of some poor innocent victim: "Schwinned!" To accommodate those who traipse on two wheels, bicycle paths follow nearly every walkway on campus. Like a scaled- down street traffic system, white lines, dotted yellow lines and yield signs markedly establish the responsibilities of the cyclists to the underprivileged pedes- trians. Undoubtedly, the U of I campus planners uncannily foresaw trouble in the shape of a wheeled menace driving full- speed and full-force, bulldozing past, near or through any unfortunate walkers. Sophomore Kim Kolman admitted to being tempted by the power high which often accompanies ownership of the coveted bicycle. "Sometimes I just feel like running over people who get in my way," she said. "But I've never actually hit anyone. I'm nice and just yell and swear at them." Respect for the lowly who travel by foot has been a constant source of concern. However, an informed citizen can protect him or herself by considering the issue seriously and taking the time learn a few nearly fail-safe tactics. Within their first week on campus, new students pick up valuable bike-avoiding skills along with other "how to stay safe at school" informa- tion. Most importantly, students learn to recognize the indications of designated bicycle paths so as not to confuse them with ordinary, made-for-feet pathways. Appreciating this distinction, which may take time to fully commit to memory, is nonetheless worthy of the effort; it may even save a life. A sarcastic list of bad advice, entitled "31 Things to Do Before Graduation," includes "Live dangerously and walk on the bike path on Wright Street." The value of this tidbit can be judged by some of the other sage phrases in its company, true words to live by: "Forget your social security num- ber; Write a letter to your parents and send them money" and "Blow off pre-registration and see what classes you can get." However, despite widespread fear and occasional precarious encounters between the vehicle-donning superiors and the foot- confined laypeople, "I've never seen anyone actually get hit," Kolman said. In fact, sometimes the arrogance of wheelers brought about a downfall of, if not injury, sure humiliation. "I saw someone fall off his bike once," she said. "He was definitely going too fast for conditions." Graduates 433 FAA Denny d'Alelio Annandale, Va. Lesley Barbee Ogden Raymond Barnas Des Plaines Cherilyn Behnke Mt.

La Bamba's is one of the most popular places to eat after going out to the bars. Tracy Nagasawa Who's hungry? Students frequent campus restaurants after a night out 3oing out to the bars on weekends, and ven during the week, has become a avored pastime for many students. Jnfortunately, the bars close at 1:00 a.m. and most students aren't ready to lead home just yet. After all, a long light of drinking and partying can give /ou a mighty big appetite. yiany campus fast food restaurants )ecome quite the place to be around 1:00 a.m. One tried and true after bar estaurant is La Bamba's. For the true appetite, La Bamba's can never be 3eat. Burritos the size of your head and drinks large enough to quench the thirst afterwards is always a sight for the sore jyes of a hungry person. "Going to La Bamba's after you have spent a night drinking is quite an experience," said >/like Pataglia, junior in LAS. Burger King is also a great place to sit around and work off the night. Greasy ast food, and a convenient location nade this place a definitive part of the )ar hopper's evenings, or mornings as he case may be. Another advantage of ping to eat at Burger King is the newly istalled cash machine inside the store. This makes life very easy if you should happen to spend all your cash at the bars. This year, a new restaurant popped up on campus. A.J. Winger's has quickly become a great place to go for delicious eats. As an alternative to the usual burgers or Bamba's, A.J. Wingers provides salads, buffalo wings, chicken sandwiches and baked potatos. It promises to be quite a popular spot to eat. Not to mention the prime location on Daniel Street between Kam's and CO. Daniel's. However, the most popular way to relieve those early morning cravings for food is to order pizza. Many of the campus pizza restaurants deliver into the early morning hours, perfect for students returning home from the bars. Always a favorite of college students, pizza is cheap, easy to share and you don't have to walk anywhere but home to get it. "Many times my decision to go to a place like La Bamba's after the bars is impaired by drunkenness. I'd say that Willie's Pizza is the best after the bars," said Chris Hinrichs, senior in FAA. Partying has always been one of the favorite things to do for college students. Right along with partying come eating. Eating at campus restaurants will always be a part of the ritual of going out to the bars for most students. story by Doug Wickham layout by Colleen Murray — Tracy Nagasan .1 Going out to eat after the bars is a ritual for many students.

"Citibank knows that students like you become responsible, creditworthy cardmembers. That's why we're extending a special student offer to you." Such clever brown-nosing techniques advertising lured many a poor, underprivileged, waif-status student into the world of economic gluttony, or, rather, delayed payment for what often become more purchases. The convincing appeal to "students like you," combined with a list of extraordinar- ily useful benefits, particularly on airline travel. It helped students to recognize an annual fee of $20 as a worthwhile invest- ment in cultivating a lifestyle in the new and exciting world of debit. Phrases such as "spreading your obligation over time" (followed by an asterisk leading to the fine print specifying annual percentage rates, late payment fees and over-the- credit-lirmit fees) beautifully euphemized the idea of payment by procrastination. Of course, the telephone, the even more personal, persuasive technique used by the geniuses behind Discover, Visa and Mastercard, brought in gullible poverty- stricken students everywhere. Such friendly voices, belonging to people who care about you, took it upon themselves to inform you of the fantastic opportunities available. Knowing how speechless the recipient must be at their amazing offers, they considerately spoke without pauses for the first five minutes. "When they finally pause to take a breath, I say, very slowly, 'I am sorry, but I do not speak English,'" John Mclnnes, senior in LAS, said. Helpful tactic, but then, this young man had the confidence of no faith: "I don't believe in credit cards," he said. Unfortunately, some unlucky students fell into taking advantage of the trust awarded them by kind, parent-like credit card companies. Overindulgence in card use and neglect of careful credit limit calcula- tion sometimes led to the feared removal of the prized possession. "Over Christmas break, my Discover Card wouldn't go through so I couldn't charge anything and I know I didn't go over the limit. That really annoyed me because I didn't know what happened," said Emily Downes, junior in LAS. "At work (Blockbuster Video) I get to cut up other people's credit cards and watch them squirm," Mclnnes said. "And I just laugh, because I pay cash for everything." Even though using credit cards makes life quite a bit easier for many of us, life may not be so great when those bills start showing up.

This adds yet another reason for students to dread on campus registration. story by Debbie Williams layout by Kristen Werth Students express their pet peeves about U of I life. hat bugs you the most? )ut of all of the things that go on in ur lives it seems that the little things re the ones that annoy us the most. et peeves can often make life that luch more difficult. Trying to find a arking space or being closed out of a lass in the Armory yet again are not ncommon occurrences on the U of I ampus. n-campus registration is an event lat is dreaded by nearly every stu- ent. Having to go to the Armory ther in the bitter cold or immense sat can make life not too pleasant, so, having to stand in line for hours ily to find out that the class you need as either been canceled or it is full an really annoy you. It is the type of thing that cannot be avoided and there- fore is the most unsettling. Another major problem that students find on this campus is the parking, or more accurately, a lack of it. Many students do the traditional thing and walk to class, but those who live far from campus find it easier to drive to class, especially on those cold winter days. The only problem with that is finding a parking space. Most of the parking lots on campus are for faculty and staff members and the spaces on the streets are usually taken. If you are lucky enough to find a spot on the street those wonderful parking meters take guite a bit of your money that could be better spent on something else. Some believe that having a car on campus causes more problems than it is worth. Emily Downes, junior in LAS, said, "I've gotten so many parking tickets on campus that it seems like more money goes towards parking tickets than my tuition." Other pet peeves include tuition hikes, problems with professors and TAs, the lack of a social life due to too much school work and problems with the bus system. "I hate the MTD bus system because it is easy to get to the Quad, but impossible to get home. You can forget it if you need one at night," said Mike Lowry, junior in LAS. Some of these things we can actually do something about, but most pet peeves are things that we can't change. This is what makes them so annoying.

Megan Shields, freshman in LAS, \lunteers with Habitat for Humanity scause, "I like helping people and in ©ing so learn a lot about current issues Eid also about myself." ~ie ways one can volunteer are very (i/erse. One area is community i rvice, which is helping to fill immedi- h needs through direct action. An I ample is Habitat for Humanity which xks to eliminate poverty housing by aiding homes. Another group focused i immediate action in Champaign- l^bana is Volunteer lllini Projects which has 16 different areas from tutoring, to blood drives, to Niterides. Another type of volunteer work is social action, which is concerned with changing the laws and social constructs that we live in. Volunteering in these areas includes lobbying and working to reform systems both locally, nationally, and in cases of groups like Amnesty International, worldwide as well. An important focus of volunteering is reflection, thinking back and evaluating both the service performed and why it is useful or necessary. This helps keep the work done in perspective and helps prevent a common problem: burnout. Volunteer work such as filing and typing may not seem as glamorous as a protest march in Washington, but may be just as important, if not more so. Groups here help volunteers focus on the "bigger picture" through informal talks after performing a service, through having speakers and other types of education. "I think that the numbers of students who volunteer here at the University will continue to increase because we continue to gain more quality resources such as reflection, education on the issues and better orientation training," Foley said. "But at the same time that I'm working to make volunteering as effective as possible, I'm hoping my job will soon no longer be needed."

Once the student has len in the program for five semes- s, he or she must take a test for :rtification.

All trainers are required (spend two semesters with the (j>tball team, one in the spring and Kristen Belin, senior in ALS, helps Tom Sinak, junior in ALS, with an injury as part of her job as a student athletic trainer. one in the fall. The trainers are obligated to attend every practice as well as every home game or meet. The trainers also have the opportunity to travel with the team to all away events. Trainers are required to know how to deal with preventing injuries as well as what to do when an injury arises. "I think the hands on experience with the athletes and their injuries is the most beneficial part of the program," said Holly Walicek, sophomore in ALS. Throughout the program, students take many classes about movement, rehabilitation, evaluating injuries and preventing injuries. The only class that students are required to take prior to admission into the pro- gram is Kinesiology 120 which is an introductory class. All other classes are taken after entrance into the program. The student trainers both observe the team's professional trainer as well as assist them in their duties. Aside from time in the classroom, students are required to spend what comes out to be a minimum of 20 hours per week in the training room. Here they spend time with the athletes treating their injuries and, sometimes, just watching practices. This is where the most hands on work exists. "The hardest part about this program is managing the time. Between class and the training room, I barely have time for anything else," said Matt Borror, senior in ALS. The students in the program must enjoy working with athletes as well as with athletics in general. They also must be extremely dedicated to the teams that they are working with. Many students in the program hope | to one day be able to work on a f professional team as a trainer, and I many have had summer internships with professional football and base- ball teams which prepare them for what the responsibilities of a profes- sional athletic trainer are like. "My dream is to work for a professional athletic team after graduation," said Stephanie Alsberg, junior in ALS. Although the athletic trainer program is very rigorous and comprehensive, it prepares students for work after graduation in almost any type of athletic training situation that they may face. "The way the program works gives us a chance to see a large variety of injuries and the experience with the different sports gives us the training we need for future job searches," said Borror. ory by Meredith Babiarz yout by Lori Schneider Graduates 445 LAS Mark Halper Chicago Leslie Hammersmith Champaign Seong Han Seoul, Korea Steven Hanebutt Red Bud Lisa Hanes Carbondale Jennifer Hanley Downers Grove Barbara Hanson Danville Stephen Harding Elmhurst Rebecca Hardy Rushville Steven Harig Frankfort Neil Harness Peoria Deannine Harrison Chicago Glennese Harston Chicago Jennifer Hartl Barrington Christopher Hartman Chicago Pamela Hartman Shorewood James Hartnett Cary Lisa Harvey Springfield Zisca Hastings Evanston Christine Hathaway Naperville Jennifer Haughey Crystal Lake Natalie Hawryluk Odessa, Texas Jo-Ellyn Haynesworth Markham Christian Heath Champaign Kimberly Heath Champaign Tara Hebl New Lenox Christina Hector Wilmette Matthew Heidkamp Chicago Jeffrey Heise Joliet Jonathan Heitkam Lena Jennifer Hejnicki Woodridge Brian Helmich Minooka Christopher Hemrick Wheaton Sean Hendricks Quincy Thomas Henehan Crestwood Joseph Hernandez Chicago Jennifer Hicks Bloomington Lori Higgins Normal Steven Hitt Normal Shirley Ho Peoria Robert Hobart LaGrange Melanie Hoday Glendale Heights Stephen Hoffmann Champaign Edward Hofherr Godfrey Heather Holland Bellwood Amy Hollingshead Cicero Christopher Hollingsworth Aurora Elizabeth Holmgren North Henderson Michele Honecker Rockford Kierre Honore Chicago Bryan Hopper Crystal Lake Krishna Hospelhorn Gridley David Huang Naperville Nina Huang Oak Brook Jim Hubrich Arlington Heights J.

Before interviewing, though, a jdent must go through a process in jer to be elligible for these interviews, st, students must register for placement submitting a resume, a records release m and a placement registration card to 3 Career Services Center. Next, stu- nts must identify which companies they >uld like to interview with by looking ough the On-Campus Recruiting illetin. This publication, which comes t three times each semester contains a hedule of companies recruiting as well : a description of available positions. [en, students submit resumes to each of J employers with which they would like i be considered for an interview. The !ireer Services Center mails the resumes ithe companies so they can pre-select mdidates for their interviews. If chosen an interview, students sign up for a ie at the Center. This is handled on a >t come, first serve basis. After the lerview process is complete, students tify the Center of any job offers and their cisions regarding the offered positions. -Campus interviewing provides many advantages in the interviewing process. For example, students do not even have to leave campus in order to attend an interview. That way, worries about travel time and costs are non-existent. Another advantage is that students can be seen by many different companies in the same day. One more advantage is that students are made aware of a wider rage of job opportunities. "I think that on-campus interviews are extremely beneficial be- cause you don't have to drive anywhere and the experience of interviewing in itself is a very helpful tool for the future," said Mikki Whitehead, senior in CBA. A major disadvantage of interviewing on campus is that you must be registered with the Career Services Center or another placement office on campus in order to interview with the company. If you are not registered you are prohibited from seeing the company, even if the company wishes to see you. "I really don't like the system because if you're not on the list, you're out of luck," said Mike Lazar, senior in LAS. — Ryan Donovan Elizabeth Pacini, sophomore in LAS, interviews for a summer job with Beber Camp.

Roman — So Have a Party Halloween celebrations aren't just for kids Ask any kid under the age of twelve about [he meaning of Halloween and you'll find, as expected, that dressing up, getting lots f candy and scaring those younger than ou is what it is all about. But what about :ollege students? We tend to be quite :hild like at times. A surprising majority of :ollege students still celebrate the childish loliday. Maybe it's just an excuse to go put or have a party, or maybe some still relieve in the true spirit of Halloween. dost Halloween parties on campus are of i smaller nature with a few close friends ind possibly some wild costumes. There ire a small number of people on this ;ampus, however, who believe in celebrat- ng Halloween in a big way, sparing no r '' expense. This includes a variety of costumes, multicolored lighting, loud music and, of course, food and drinks. At some of the larger parties, live bands were not uncommon to see. Halloween parties are not limited to apartments and houses. Many of the campus bars sponsor costume contests with prizes as well as drink specials in honor of the occasion. Many students choose this option to celebrate Halloween since throwing a party can be quite an ordeal that many people would rather not deal with. Besides, how many times can you go out to the bars dressed as anything from the Bride of Frankenstein to a condi- ment, such as ketchup or mustard? Halloween had a strange twist to it this year as it was also Homecoming weekend. This made for larger parties and bigger celebrations because many alumni chose to return to campus for the events. Even though Halloween is considered by many a child's holiday, quite a few of us grown up kids still find the time and enthusiasm to celebrate such an event. At this university we're often expected to be grown up and mature, but sometimes it's fun to just let loose and be a kid again. That's what Halloween is all about. story by Ha Kung Wong layout by Kristen Werth Mario Pelini, junior in CBA, and Annette Delgado, junior in CBA, are both RA's in Weston Hall dressed to the hilt in costumes picked out and designed by their residents.

Students Choose o Read Things Other than Text- ooks figes For All Ages, Blue Rock Books, ires of Books, Horizon and Jane idams Bookstores are all planted in or ar campustown. And they don't tocus on lling textbooks. You mean students read ( their own time? Sure, sometimes. In fact, "a lot of people come in here week by week," Wendy Miller, employee of Champaign's Acres of Books and senior in FAA, said. "You have to spend a lot of time to appreciate everything, because it's a used book store." Occasionally, a student will make reading such a priority activity that it begins to determine his or her personality. "Some people who come in here almost seem like they have no contact with the outside world," Miller said. "They'll come in and spend a lot of time upstairs [in the bookstacks] without saying a word." The laid-back, mellow ambiance of Acres, a store "for pleasure more than academ- ics" attracted the extremes of sociable- ness: "We also get a lot of really friendly, talkative people. It's a spicy town, and we get some real characters in here," Miller said. Horizon Bookstore, in Urbana, was of a slightly more formal atmosphere, attracting mainly "grad students and professors," Frank Mauceri, grad student and em- ployee, said. The store did stock some textbooks, but "the textbook clientele is not the trademark clientele. People who buy textbooks often come here to buy other things as well." This may be said of LAS senior Decarlo Shearrill, who "usually [goes] in for text- books," he said. "I hardly ever come on my own, but I've just spent the last 30 minutes looking at things other than textbooks. I like reading, and there are all these deep books here." Many students found it advantageous to look for textbooks at stores which didn't cater to the classroom. At times, these stores would carry cheaper or used versions of books specified by professors. And students often found the more quiet knowledge-filled shelves, residing in places such as the large, volume-packed Pages For All Ages in Champaign, more pleasant in contrast to Book Rush lines at the lllini Union Bookstore. Students with a desire to delve in a favorite literary issue or topic appreciated spe- cialty stores like Jane Addams Bookstore, also in Champaign. Jane Addams was known to carry material on women's issues. As expected, books on feminism and women's biology found homes on its shelves; in addition, though, the store touted music by such artists as Julie Gold, Sally Fingerette, Christine Lavin and Megon McDonough, of Four Bitchin' Babes. However, not everyone lucked out in finding his or her pet book collection. "None of the bookstores around here have a decent representation of folklore litera- ture," Andrea Gadberry, sophomore in LAS, said. "Since that's my major, it gets frustrating." However, Champaign-Urbana did manage to provide adventurous students with a variety of non-University-affiliated reading material. "I always find it interesting to see what kind of books people buy," Miller said. story by Vida Riskus layout by Debbie Williams - Tracy Nagasawa Reading for fun is a pasttime many students wish they had time to enjoy.

Many students use the MTD bus system daily to get to class on time or to make that long walk across campus in the bitter cold a little more bearable. The MTD also makes trips to the mall possible for those students without cars. In the past, in order to ride the busses, students had to obtain a sticker and place it on their student ID. This year, though, the entire system has been changed. Students are now required to carry, in addition to their student ID, a special MTD bus pass. Many students find it a hassle to carry them both with them and to show both cards whenever boarding the busses. "I don't understand why we have it, most bus drivers don't even look at it anyway," said Chiquita Potts, senior in Agriculture. It is true that many of the campus route drivers do not ask for them, but for those routes that go outside campus it is not uncommon for drivers to ask for the new cards. Many students who frequent the MTD concluded that they still prefer last year's system with the stickers "I liked it a lot better last year because it seems like they check the ID's more now," said Tiffany Alexander, sophomore in LAS. Why do we have them? Are the new cards merely an inconve- nience? Many students are looking for conveniences. The last things students need to worry about when they run out the door to get to class on time is whether or not their student ID and MTD cards are handy. "It is unfair if you happen to lose that MTD card, especially if you live far from campus," said Susie Lee, freshman in FAA. Stanford Oglesby, senior in Agriculture said, "It is a hassle to have to pull out both cards, especially when you're in a hurry." Another problem arises when one or both of the ID cards are lost. What do you do when that all important MTD card is lost? Many students do not know where to get a new one. More importantly, who has the time to go through the hassles of getting one? On the other hand, there are some students who do not have a problem with the system at all. John Martin, junior in Social Work said, "I don't think the new system is bad at all. After all, you don't have to go and get the sticker, they just mail the card right to your door." Several students agreed with the fact that having the card sent to you is a definite advantage. Even losing the card is not that big of a problem. "Most bus drivers do not look that closely at the cards and if you lose your own you can simply use someone else's," said Cristina Zavala, freshman in FAA. Many students on campus agreed that having to carry two IDs is rather inconvenient. Most of the bus drivers do not check the cards very closely, so the majority of students pose the question, why do we have them? story by Urbano Chaidez layout by Monica Soltesz — Tracy Nagasawa Ion boarding an MTD bus, a University student presents his student ID as well as an MTD bus ss.

Williams — Zubinas Spotlighting Multiculturalism (rannert Performances Promote Ethnic Diversity klative Son" was a perfect example of a |eatrical production that showcases the leme of multiculturality. The Krannert play bout "social prejudice and hypocrisy" hich featured the face of a vigilant black bung man on its advertisements, also ,ghlighted the talents of several culturally- versified actors and actresses in roles iginally designated for African-Ameri- ans. aroline Liem, first year graduate student fine arts and half-Chinese in ancestry, jayed the part of Clara, the girlfriend of e central African-American character. 'heatre is a rainbow, and I just try to find ork that shows the best of what I've got," em said of the roles she chooses. She, ong with a Caucasian actor who played e main character's brother, ignored any cial discrepancies in their roles and rnply, effectively added another layer of lulticultural significance to the already beply meaningful play. (rector Marvin Sims stressed that his iioices in casting were not meant to slight /rican-Americans but were the best that could be made, considering the lack of a pool of actors of that race. However, he is trying to build a larger cultural base of actors by incorporating multiculturality into his acting classes. "We have to inject within each discipline — whether it be the sciences, arts or humanities — a sense of cultural diversity so students realize that it's not just Caucasians doing these kinds of things," Sims stated. Sims sees multiculturality as a theme that needs to be addressed at the forefront, and what theatre can do is put a spotlight on the issue. "The performing arts can provide positive images and role models," he believed, "Ethnic peoples can see some aspect of their own culture played out on stage, and, as a result, they can feel good about themselves." As an African-American himself, Sims has a personal desire to sensitize the audi- ences to multiculturality and has attacked the issue of racial prejudice previously in last year's play "The Wedding Band." Unlike theatrical shows, dance produc- tions incorporate the theme in a more understated way. In fact, less of an effort is made to invite ethnic performers than to welcome truly original, first-rate artists. Fortunately, a myriad of culturally-varied dancers fulfill the criteria. Said Patricia Knowles, Director of Dance at Krannert, "It would not be fair to the art form to bring in people of color if they were not the best at what they do." However, the fact that the dance depart- ment is interested in a variety of aesthetics increases the exposure that dance stu- dents and theatre-goers receive of people of color. Some of the past performers include Ming Shen Ku, who choreo- graphed a dance inspired by the impor- tance of bamboo within the Asian culture entitled "Bamboo Grove." In addition, an American-Indian dance troupe has dem- onstrated some of the ritualistic dances of their cultural heritage. Also, this year, Muntu, an African-American dance company taught a masters class for dance students on African movement. Truly, Bigger Thomas listens to a political harangue from Mary Dalton (Susan Murihead), the Comunist daughter of wealthy slumlord Henry Dalton. these expressions of multiculturality provided a much more immediate and abstract experience than history books were capable of. "I think dance is one of the most effective ways to experience another culture," said Knowles. "Through physicalization, we experience the move- ment and music of that culture." And what is the effect of such multicultural indoctrination? "They may inspire the students to move in a different way," said Knowles. One goal of Krannert Center for the Performing Arts is to bring a broad range of culturally diverse acts to the community and to help them understand a different culture through art. In fact, a Krannert Center Advisory Committee on Program- ming and Cultural Diversity was appointed last summer to help the center's director, Terrence Jones, in his choice of program- ming. The Interval Series, otherwise known as the brown-bag luncheons at which a variety of acts are performed, was an outgrowth of the multicultural goal. In this manner, brown-baggers have experienced such acts like flamenco dancers, Austra- lian folk singing, and African harmonies, without having to buy a ticket to a show they might not have seen otherwise. Jones said that a lot of the feedback he has recieved indicated that the shows were "challenging." The audiences were not sure that they understood all they had seen, but they were glad that Krannert provided them the experience. "Subcon- sciously, we hope to make people more aware of different cultures, more accus- tomed to seeing them and hopefully, eventually, more understanding of them," said Jones. In addition, Krannert hopes that once they have lured people in to see performances involving their own ethnicity, they will encourage the same people to return to view acts of other cultures. story by Chuan-Lin Alice Tsai layout by Kristen Werth Graduates 46l A BETTER HEALTH CARE SYSTEM.

Index 477 Get Back What VQT T Put in... The many facets of the IIHo Staff members are asked about their years of dedication Our society has a craving for records — records of our faces, tragedies, efforts, and lifestyles. After a year of writing, photographing, laying out and editing a year in the life of university students, it is time to present a record of the record keepers. Here's your opportunity to find out what it was like to produce the quality publication you hold in your hands at this very moment, called the lllio. In order to meet deadlines, several staff members have been known to pull all-nighters. Ryan, who did enough polite nagging throughout the year to earn the title of "assistant editor," pulled an all- nighter two nights before the final deadline and spent the rest of the day and next night in a half spacey-eyed, half insolent work trodden state. Finding few words to sum up the tumultuous, stressful year, editor in chief, Bob, kept his nose to the computer screen even to the last minutes of production. During the semester, the question, " How's it coming along Bob?" could either warrant the most beautiful pearly white smile and a cartwheel or a groan and a flash of the white of his eyes. "I have learned A LOT this year," said Bob. "I learned about how to work with people. The whole process of putting out this book is about learning and teaching. I've learned to deal more with how and why things are done, rather than being consumed with the final product itself." Cassandra (Cassie) and Ruth (Skippy), the photo editors have been working together for two years and, as a result, have many colorful stories. Ruth recalls how the homecoming photos found their way into the black hole of Cassie's filing system two years in a row. "We couldn't find them anywhere, then they showed up a week or two before the final deadline," Ruth reminisces. One of Cassie's most memorable moments was finagaling her way into the press area when Hillary Clinton spoke on the Quad in 1992. Counting on what Ruth calls her "aura of authority," Cassie laid down the law saying, "If I don't get in there, Hillary is NOT in the yearbook." See page 97 of the 1993 lllio to find out if her ploy worked. With their cameras in hand, Ruth and Cassie are ready to give the U of I the "visual candy" it's waiting to taste. The production staff of the lllio , which is responsible for the layout of the pages, takes the copy and the photos and arranges it as to make it "pleasing to the eye." Special Sections editor, Jill Kogan, and staff member, Monica Soltesz said the experience they have gained from the lllio will help prepare them for their futures in advertising. Colleen Murray of the production staff said her yearbook experience will help her pursue a career in graphic design. Carol Frantilla, a civil engineer, will not take her experience directly to her career goal but is learning to deal with deadlines, computers, and design constraints. "I'm just glad I finally know what I'm doing," said Carol. "Those first few weeks were hell." Finally, there's the writers. As we write this article, we cannot help but feel compelled to believe that we hold the most difficult position on the staff and yet, it is so rewarding. Lavina. in her first year on staff, says she enjoyed learning about different departments and the extra-cirricular activities the university has to offer. Mike says he enjoys the satisfaction of knowing that he is reporting the news that one day someone else will want to know... that he is producing interesting, historical facts about the university. Both writers know that the job of a reporter is not just a big ol' bowl of maraschino cherries. The job involves incredible amounts of research and phonecalls... phonecalls to people who are sometimes reluctant to divulge any information. They both are. however, grateful to have gained the experience needed to deal with the public, as well as the chance to improve our writing skills. As you see, there many different departments that compose the creation of the lllio and each one is vital to the book's production. We are privileged to produce the U of I's 101st yearbook. This book will begin a new century of events, affairs and happenings while keeping the stories of yesteryear fresh in the reader's mind. We. the lllio staff, thank you for 101 years of cooperation... not only for reading our publication, but for giving us something the write about. story by Michael Kelnosky and Lavina Kraujalis -Cassandra Ecke -Cassandra Fcker Cassandra* and Ruth... women on a ■ ■ miSSIOIl Photography editors vital to yearbook production ■1 Ruth Galvez Cassandra Eckcr Ruth Galvez It started in August of1992... Jupiter aligned with Mars, the flowers began to bloom, peace had broken out around the world, the birds seemed to whistle a more cheerful melody. Yes folks, Cassandra and Ruth had begun their journey as I Mo photo editors. I asked Cassandra Ecker and Ruth Galvez, both seniors in LAS, to share their many experiences before and during their reign aslllio photo editors; how did they get started? and why? These are just a few of the answers I sought from the Dynamic Duo, and here is their story: As a new freshman pledge at Alpha* Xi Delta sorority and Army ROTC cadet, Cassandra met Ruth at her sisterhood night and found that Rutf was in the Naval Reserves. When it came time to choose a pledge mom, Cass chose Ruth. "I knew she was in the Navy, so I thought she would know how it was to be in a military organization and be Greek." i, in ••no iiiio ■ ■ Cassandra Ecker Ruth Galvez Ruth Galvez Cassandra Ecker uth and Cassie really did not ecome the good friends that they re today until two years later. In the pring of 1992, Ruth was about to ike over the position of lllio co- hoto editor when she found out the ther editor would not be able to iurn to the university in the fall. '/hen Ruth expressed her concern ibout the work load for the ipcoming year, Cass was right here to help Ruth, even though she i^ally hadn't done any photo work ;nce high school. I asked Ruth and Cassandra to share their best and worst memories of their tenures as photo editors, and they had plenty to say. From award winning photos, to pushing Ruth's car through the snow during a final deadline week, to losing Homecoming photos, they share something far bigger than their work, they share their friendship and a large part of their lives. Ruth and Cassandra are incredibly important and dear to the yearbook staff. These seemingly inseparable twins add that "something special," as one staff members put it, you just can't find anywhere else. They truly are women on a mission: who's going to put up with this shit next year? story by Michael Kelnosky** &* ft ..!» * l w 'if Well Michael v< .ill the topics ..I unlit Hi. di slroyi . _ _You _ Get Back What A^OT j Put in... The University of Illinois exists with the purpose of educating students. There are many opportunities for students to control the quality of that education. Vice Chancellor Levy gave students the opportunity to voice their opinions directly to him by E-mail with his Students On-Line Opportunity program. Each of the student messages are personally answered by the Vice Chancellor. This new program gives students the ability to take matters into their own hands by making suggested changes for the university. ■ft The E-mail network also caused one student to get burned. Christopher Reincke, freshman Doug Green, freshman in LAS, and Martin Crook, junior in LAS, both residents of Weston Hall, play chess by candlelight during a power outage. Power was lost to three Champaign residence halls, the Orange snack shop and IMPE for over 48 hours when a power transformer malfunctioned. .You.

The message was signed "Overlord" and was sent from the alias "ALMIGHTY@NEVER. GONNA. CATCH. ME". The Grainger Engineering Library finally opened after a delay caused by flooding over the summer. The new library provides students and faculty access to on-line transactions, information from CD-ROM and access to the E-mail network on 120 terminals. The Campus Honors Program gives students the opportunity to supplement their individually Carlos Mirjndj University students picked as extras for the film With Honors, listen to instructions given by Jordan Stone, second assistant director of the movie.

Each year 100 students are asked to participate and are designated Chancellor's Scholars. The amount of time and energy put into an activity is usually apparent.
