n an unusually warm weekend, Homecoming once again rolled through campus. While most Ianticipated a cool October weekend to celebrate the festivities, temperatures soared into the mid-80s.

The warm weather revived Hoosier spirit and kicked off the Homecoming activities. Students, administrators, alumni and other fans demonstrated their support for the struggling football team by taking part in several campuswide events.

It all began Thursday evening at the Yell Like Hell competition held in the Indiana Memorial Union Solarium. In a predominantly greek contest, Briscoe Quadrangle proved its Hoosier spirit reigned over the rest of campus. Members of the Briscoe team felt especially proud of their victory because it was just their second year participating in the event.

"It feels really great. We put in a lot of work to get to this point," said Briscoe resident freshman Emily Derkasch. The quad grooved to the beat of its music and

dance routine to win the Yell Like Hell, the Grand Champion and the Cream and Crimson awards.

The Briscoe spirit spilled into Friday evening's Homecoming parade. Organized by the Student Alumni Association, the year's theme celebrated good times.

Crowds clad in summer attire lined Third St. and Indiana Ave. to watch the spectacle. Cheers and yells roared at various floats and caravans.

Briscoe represented the only residence hall that participated in the event. The Briscoe float consisted of several residents dancing along with a disco ball dangling from a goal post.

Many fraternities, sororities and student organizations also demonstrated their Homecoming spirit. IUSA proudly created a steamboat with the slogan, "Sink Michigan and Celebrate Good Times." The IU Student Foundation stunned the crowds by bringing in two camels for the occasion. Football head coach Cam Cameron acted as grand marshall of the parade.

The Student Athletic Board hosted a pep rally in front of the Student Building immediately following the parade. Devoted fans huddled around the Marching Hundred as they played the IU fight song and familiar half-time favorites. Cheerleaders and the Redsteppers did their part to motivate the crowd by providing several dance routines and cheers.

Following the performance of the Marching Hundred, a medley of speakers addressed the crowd. During this time, Associate Athletic Director Chuck Crabb named the recipients of the Homecoming King and Queen titles. A committee made up of SAB members chose seniors Brad Merritt and Alison Puthoff for their commitment to academics and extracurricular activities that served the campus and community.

Members of the football team and coach Cameron also spoke to the crowd. Cameron received cheers when he introduced himself and his plans for a Homecoming victory. The team hoped for its first Homecoming victory since 1993.

"I think coach Cameron did a good job of creating excitement for the new team and boosting morale," junior Lakeya Pankey said. "Their new image made me want to see them."

At 9 a.m. Saturday, fans arrived at Memorial Stadium to start tailgating festivities. A crowd of 42,240 ecstatic fans filled the stadium hoping a new coach and a new team would equal a new season.

But those hopes of a victory deteriorated quickly after quarterback sophomore Jay Rodgers fumbled the ball giving possession to Michigan. No. 6-ranked Michigan took over the game and scored 31 points in the second quarter. Fans began filing out of the stadium before halftime. The Wolverines defeated the Hoosiers 37-0.

"I think this new team has to go through an adjusting period," sophomore Terence Holt said. "They're still a young team and with their new philosophy and attitude, they'll be better in the upcoming years."

Despite the disappointing game, fans continued to tailgate and have a festive time on Kirkwood and Indiana avenues at such sites as Kilroy's and The Gables.

Adorned in IU memorabilia, these longtime popular hangouts served good food and drinks to all those celebrating Homecoming.

Sophomore Monica Hite, whose parents were both University students, decided to attend IU in part because of her parent's influence, "I think Homecoming would be fun for them (alumni) because it reminds them of their own college fun and exciting times and that's what you remember anyway," Hite said. -It's not just your classes you remember, but the whole college experience."

ne night changed her life. Her boyfriend took her out to dinner and then they went back to her place to watch movies. Then, the unthinkable occurred: he raped her. She vowed to do everything in her power to make sure the same thing never happened to her or to anyone else.

In this spirit, approximately 100 people gathered in the Collins Living-Learning Center courtyard to march and protest in Bloomington's annual Take Back the Night march. They came in unified support to demonstrate against a violence that was all too common. They came to Take Back the Night.

Take Back the Night began as an annual march in Germany in 1973 as a response to a series of sexual assaults, rapes and murders. Five years later, San Francisco hosted the first Take Back The Night march in the United States. More than 5,000 women from 30 states participated. Since then, hundreds of cities across the United States have held their own marches.

The goals of the Bloomington protest focused on increasing the knowledge of sexual assault and revealing the many volunteer opportunities to those on hand. The goals promoted what organizers considered their main purpose: getting people actively involved in the fight against sexual assault, The event began with speakers talking about the details of Take Back the Night by offering statistics about sexual assault and abuse. The crowd learned that rape victimized one in four women, and that women reported only one in five rapes. Only one in eight rapes ended in conviction.

A thought-provoking skit organized by Suzanne Pauwels, a counselor at the IU Crisis Center, followed the speakers. Ironically, it involved a man who was robbed, not raped. During a mock interrogation, an investigator asked what the victim wore when the robbery occurred, and whether he knew he was an attractive target to thieves.

The skit implied that many investigators

Taking

interrogated sexual assault victims in the same uneasy fashion. The speakers said that investigators often asked if women really meant "no" when they said "no," and if they had "asked for it."

After the skit, Pauwels explained she used the skit to suggest why such a large number of rapes go unreported. Pauwels said the perpetrator had to be held responsible for the violence that occurred.

Senior Amy Ikerd, one of the leaders of the event, spoke about the rapes reported on campus for the 1997-1998 school year. In 1996 students reported three rapes to the IU police department. In the first three weeks of the 1997-98 school year, five were reported.

Despite this rise, Ikerd said the numbers might reflect an encouraging sign: more women are speaking up about sexual assaults.

After Ikerd spoke, volunteers passed out candles to participants. The march started as the cold autumn rain began to fall.

But in spite of rain and slick streets the group began the first of many chants: "People unite, Take Back the Night!" As the procession moved west on Kirkwood Avenue, it gathered more supporters and more voices.

People came out of restaurants and businesses to watch the procession.

At the Monroe County Courthouse, the protesters gathered around a podium to hear a proclamation from Bloomington mayor, John Fernandez. As the group waited for the mayor to arrive, people began to shout, "Five rapes in three weeks is too many!" The chanting went on for a few moments and then another group yelled, "One rape in three weeks is too many!" That particular chant brought a loud cheer from supporters.

When Mayor Fernandez came to the podium, he declared Sept. 28, 1997, a night for all citizens to take back the violence. He condemned spiking drinks at parties and taking advantage of women when they have had too much to drink. He sent out a plea to all men: help end violence against women and make continued Bloomington a safer community.

An open microphone session followed the mayor's proclamation.

Organizers invited anyone with a message or an experience to come and talk. Bloomington resident William Rike came to the microphone to deliver his message: "Through unity this can be solved."

More people came to talk. Individuals urged sexual assault victims to speak out and tell people close to them when they have been violated. Two women spoke about their personal rape experiences.

One person spoke of a friend who committed suicide because of the pain of being sexually assaulted. Victims stressed communication as the most important and most forgotten element of date rape.

A moment of silence for all victims of sexual assaults, rapes and murders followed the open microphone period. Freshman Jon Pittman said the open microphone speakers and the informational portions of the night moved him. Pittman came to the event to show support for women who have been sexually assaulted. "This has been a white, male-dominated society for too long," Pittman said.

The leaders mentioned several ways participants in the Take Back the Night protest could get more involved. They urged participants not to end their support on the courthouse steps. Speakers provided the phone numbers of the IU Rape Awareness Peer Presenter Program, the IU Safety Escort Service, Planned Parenthood and Middleway House, a domestic violence shelter. These organizations, leaders said, provided significant ways to continue the fight to end violence against women.

Protesters came to demand safety in the streets. They came to join together and to stand united against rape and violent crimes against women. They came in the rain bearing candles and they came chanting. They came to listen and they came to be heard.

didn't drink any wine with dinner tonight. I wanted to be in good and sober shape for I speaking to you about the future," former President of the Soviet Union, Mikhail Gorbachev said with a smile.

Gorbachev made Indiana University his first stop on a country-wide speaking tour. He said he most enjoyed speaking at educational institutions because it allowed him to reach the leaders of the 21st Century.

During his two-day stay, Gorbachev visited the Musical Arts Center, the Lilly Library and the computer science department, where department members took him into a virtual reality machine.

"IU Bloomington has a long history of international research and teaching programs, thanks in great measure, to the vision of Herman B Wells, who made language and area studies programs a top priority during his 25-year presidency," said Vice President and IUB Chancellor Kenneth Gros Louis.

Forced from office in 1991, Gorbachev turned his efforts to international and environmental issues. He became president of the Gorbachev Foundation, an international education effort that addressed the challenges of repositioning global priorities.

(GLOBALIZATION) CANNOT BE

STOPPED, NOR CAN IT BE PUSHED AWAY." -Mikhail Gorbachev, Former Soviet Union President "Having Mr. Gorbachev as a distinguished visitor on our campus provides us all with a unique opportunity, one that lifts dramatic world events right out of newspapers, magazines and history books and puts them right in the middle of an immediate and personal engagement," said President Myles Brand.

Invited by the Indiana Memorial Union Board, Gorbachev delivered a speech entitled "Peace in the 21st Century." The speech emphasized the challenges of globalization and how to respond to them.

He said some people feared the process of globalization. "It cannot be stopped, nor can it be pushed away," the former President said.

Gorbachev said when economic, communication and informational globalization combined, businesses faced the prospect of losing control of trade and services. He urged the need for the regulation of economic and social processes in sovereign states.

He then addressed the rise in inequalities within and between countries. "The stronger players in the global market are able to derive disproportionate benefits from their advantages. As a result, inequality in the distribution of material resources and wealth is becoming greater," he said. "Never before have these inequalities been as blaring or outrageous as they are now."

In a global community, Gorbachev said, this problem compounded because people knew about the living conditions of people elsewhere and often did nothing to assist the underprivileged.

As the founder of Green Cross International, an organization dedicated to the creation of global environmental laws and sustainable development, Gorbachev said he was concerned about the environmental crisis. He said the depletion of natural resources occurred at an alarming rate and new ways of environmental stabilization should be sought.

"Going with the flow could mean more suffering, hunger, epidemics and bloodshed in the world. This is the prospect we must reject," he said. "The only alternative to this prospect, as I see it, is a managed process of change, including at the global level."

Following the lecture, audience members submitted questions for Gorbachev. When asked about his greatest regret, he mentioned the erroneous decisions he made, or the ones that came too late.

"We acted too late in reforming the Union or our republics. We were overconfident. We thought ethnic relations were in good shape in our country," he said.

"Later, it took a lot of effort to try to rectify the situation, but it was too late. As for the other things, we could have coped."

In general, Gorbachev said he was optimistic about the future. He said he felt confident that the leaders of tomorrow would find a new human dimension of progress. Of all the things he could be remembered for, he said he hoped it would be that he helped teach a new generation to cope with old and new problems and how to forge their own happiness.i9

Seven years later, "Stand in the Gap" attracted more than one million men.

In response, protests of the event and organization occurred across the country.

Many people, particularly women and gay rights groups, felt Promise Keepers encouraged an old-fashioned notion of the male-centered home where women held secondary family roles.

Yet as the unswayed IU contingent prepared to leave Indianapolis, many in the group said they did not know to expect. They sought to build a closer relationship with God, but were unsure how this would happen.

"One of the many reasons I wanted to go to Promise Keepers (Stand in the Gap) is to show my support for the movement and just be a part of something incredibly awesome," said senior Ed Sena.

After arriving near the Mall between the U.S. Capitol and the Lincoln Memorial, Sena, senior Brian Greiwe and graduate student Todd Hillwig spent more than 45 minutes looking for a place to stand along the milelong strip.

The "Sacred Assembly of Men" prayed on their knees, focused on repentance for a disjointed body of believers, racial and denominational harmony and the healing of the nation.

They also listened to an afternoon of speakers and sang praises.

Keeping with one of the program's goals, many speakers articulated a reconciliation with God. They said before this reconciliation could occur, men would have to humble themselves before God. "I spent a lot of time thinking 'God has done this for me. What have I done for Him? What can I do for Him?" Greiwe said.

Two hours before the end of the assembly, the group realized it had forgotten to bring ample food for the trip. When hunger set in, Greiwe prayed. Minutes later a vendor came by and offered the students three boxes totalling 30 meals and refused to accept anything in return.

When asked why the vendor donated the food, he said many people were hungry and providing food outweighed the importance of making a profit. The students learned later the man lost over $250,000 by donating the food.

Following the event, the group arrived in Indianapolis and parted with a group hug.

nder the 50 state flags that lined the front of the Veteran's War Memorial in downtown U Indianapolis, people of Central, South and Caribbean American cultures and backgrounds gathered Sept.

20. The event marked the beginning of Hispanic Heritage month, which ran from Sept. 15 to Oct. 5.

"Fiesta Indianapolis," a day-long festival, brought together music, food and entertainment from the diverse cultures of the Hispanic world. The event drew hundreds from across the state, including a group of students from Indiana University.

The Office of Latino Affairs sponsored the trip to the festival, which originated in 1979. Freshman Ilona C. Quevedo participated and described the fiesta as being different than others she had experienced.

"I am from San Francisco and we have huge block parties when it comes to Latinos," Quevedo said. "This fiesta seemed very small to me, but that just shows that no matter how big or small a celebration might be, it's still helping people learn more about our culture," Senior Rob Cespedes, the president of Latinos Unidos-IU (LUIU), attended "Fiesta Indianapolis" for the first time. He said that along with the various musical and dance perfon-nances he saw, he enjoyed the festival's atmosphere.

"I think the people who attended the festival were what I enjoyed the most," Cespedes said. "It showed that there is interest, but most of all pride in a culture that has helped build this nation in all of its aspects."

Earlier in the week, LUIU held its own celebration of Hispanic Heritage Month with an open house at the Latino Culture Center, commonly referred to as La Casa. The open house held Sept. 15 kicked off a month of activities that included speakers, food festivals, movies and discussion forums all designed to celebrate and bring awareness of Latino affairs to the IU community.

On a rainy Tuesday afternoon Sigma Lambda Beta, IU's only Latino fraternity, grilled out for its annual Arrachera Fest.

The fraternity members prepared Spanish rice, "frijoles borrachos," Mexican desserts and the main course, grilled arracheras, a type of meat similar to fajitas. Many students and faculty members came to the event to support the fraternity and to sample a home-cooked Mexican meal.

Carlos Munoz, a founder of the first Latino Studies Department, presented a speech entitled The Hispanic Experience: Myths and Realities." Munoz used his own personal experiences with racism and discrimination to inspire Hispanic students to pursue their educations to the fullest. He especially praised those students studying to be teachers, who he claimed were his heroes.

Senior Dawn Ferrer said as an education major, she could relate to much of what Munoz discussed. Ferrer said Munoz helped inspire a newfound pride in her major. "He reaffirmed my confidence in becoming a teacher," Ferrer said.

Hispanic Heritage Month activities continued for the following two weeks with showings of the movies "Selena" and "Zoot Suit;" trips to an Indianapolis museum and a Chicago conference: more speakers and discussion forums; and with dances, dinners and public initiations sponsored by the various Latina and Latino sororities and fraternities.

LUIU hosted a celebration nationally designated as "Dia de la Raza." The celebration, a "day of the people," honored Hispanic citizens in the United States. Organized by LUIU, La Casa hosted the event and offered free food from a local Mexican restaurant, plus music and conversation.

Lillian Casillas, the director of La Casa and the advisor to LUIU, said the "Dia de la Raza" celebration and the Sept. 15 open house drew the most non-Hispanic participants.

"We structured these events so they would not be intimidating," Casillas said. "They had very laid-back atmospheres so it would be easier for people to engage in conversations, while at the same time getting a taste of our culture."

Although held the weekend after the official end of Hispanic Heritage Month, the LUIU sponsored Parents Weekend still had the month's themes in mind. Several families made the trip to Bloomington to visit their children and participate in tours, cultural activities and a banquet.

Senior Elizabeth Lopez welcomed her father, mother and two sisters to Parents Weekend by showing them around campus.

"Parents Weekend gives me a chance to see my family again," Lopez said. "But it also gave me an opportunity to show them exactly what it is I do here. I wanted them to see La Casa, which is a place for me to hang out and which has become like my second home." in

he thing I'm trying to get across to young people is encouraging them to love themselves enough to protect themselves and those that they're with, said Olympic champion, Greg Louganis.

"We know how to prevent HIV transmission through sexual contact, and what I'm finding is that this is the growing HIV community, amongst our youth."

For one hour the four-time gold medalist spoke to students and members of the Bloomington community about his battle with domestic abuse, dyslexia and his struggle to let go of the secrets surrounding his sexual orientation and his HIV diagnosis. Receiving a warm standing ovation, Louganis' speech, planned by the Indiana Memorial Union Board, was one of the events highlighting GLBT Pride Week.

Louganis shocked the world when he came out publicly as a gay man at the 1994 Gay Games, and again in 1995, when he publicly announced to Barbara Walters on "20/20" that he was living with full-blown AIDS. Louganis finally made the decision to come out to the world when his highly controversial biography, "Breaking the Silence," was released.

Louganis believed a person was born gay, lesbian or bisexual and stressed the importance of letting go of secrets by coming out. "The first person you have to come out to is yourself," he said.

Louganis first came out in public to members of the University of Miami Theater Department. A couple years later, he finally sat clown to come out to his mother, but to his surprise, she already knew.

"She's always been very accepting and I've always felt like she gave me unconditional love," Louganis said.

Louganis faced another test in dealing with his sexual orientation in 1988, when he learned that he contracted HIV from his then most recent sexual partner. While waiting for the test results, Louganis said he prepared himself for a positive test result. "I was going to pack my bags, go back home to Califrwnia, lock myself in my house, do the honorable thing and wait to die," he said.

Yet his doctor wanted to treat the disease aggressively and assured Louganis he would still be able to train for the upcoming 1988 Olympic Games in Seoul, Korea.

"Sometimes it was raining, sometimes it was cold and drizzling. And the divers on the team were complaining... I felt like ripping their heads off, because here I was thankful enough to he healthy enough to be on the boards and he training for something that I was longing to do," Louganis said.

Unfortunately, years of training and competition did not prepare Louganis for what happened during the springboard

Dlvin

competition at those Olympics. He said he knew during his memorable, fateful dive that he was too close to the board and worried about hitting his hands. When his head crashed into the board he did not realize what had happened at first.

"When it happened, I was paralyzed with fear," Louganis said. "Once I crashed into the water, and I was in the water for a minute I realized, 'Oh my God, that was my head.' When I realized that, I was paralyzed with fear because I didn't know what my responsibility was."

Prior to the Olympics, Louganis had been discouraged against releasing his sexual orientation and particularly his new HIV status. At the time of the Olympic games, host city Seoul, Korea, would not let people with HIV or full-blown AIDS into the country. The doctor who stitched-up Louganis' head after the accident took every precaution with his procedure, even though many debates on the subject occurred later when Louganis went public with his HIV status.

Louganis' popularity remained the reason for the long line of people, which began at the doors of Alumni Hall and wound around the second floor of the Indiana Memorial Union. Martha Gioia, director of Multi-Cultural Awareness for the Union Board, said approximately only 700 of the 1,000 people who waited in line received seating.

One of those 700 people, Steven Hensley, left the speech with a very important message. "I learned that whatever happens, never lose hope of your goals, dreams aspirations," Hensley said. "Follow your heart."

Gioia attributed Louganis' success as a motivational speaker to his universal appeal.

"He's a great role model for everyone — its pretty incredible that he is so accessible and not up on a pedestal," Gioia said.

"People who can't relate to him as a member of the GLB or HIV community can relate to him because of his success as a diver."

In the arena of competitive diving, Louganis became the first man in 56 years to win two gold medals in diving with his achievement at the 1984 Olympics. Four years later at the 1998 Olympics, he repeated this feat by winning the gold medal in the platform and springboard diving events. Again. Louganis made history, becoming the first man to win hack-to-back gold medals in consecutive Olympics in the sport of diving.

"I'm a firm believer that life is a journey," Louganis said with a smile. "It's taken a lot to get here, a lot of support."

Louganis' life had been a journey traversing many different roads to reach success. He called himself a survivor and said proudly, "I'm Greg Louganis: I'm a gay man living with HIV. But most importantly, IM looking forward to the day when Fin just seen as a man."

UL11 ZBT's Scavenger Hunt List Causes Controversy

he controversy began almost innocently when police arrested nine Zeta Beta Tau pledges for T the theft of letters from the Kappa Alpha Psi house, a predominately African-American fraternity. But after this arrest police realized the theft of the letters stemmed from a controversial scavenger hunt list circulated among ZBT pledges.

The list, containing many racially-offensive materials and directives to the pledges, set off a chain of events that eventually brought down the fraternity. It again raised community awareness that underlying sentiments of bigotry existed on IU's campus.

The racially and morally offensive acts of several ZBT members incited emotion from both men and women of African-American, Jewish, White, Hispanic

The ZBT list read: "You are all black men. Your job tonight is an important one, one which will require great skill, concentration, agility, and Vaseline . . . If you stray from the group, you will have to EAT a retarded kid, diaper and all."

The hunt ordered pledges to obtain items such as an "impression of a nipple (female) in a peanut butter jar," and photographs of "any funny-looking Mexican (Blacksican, extra credit)," "2 chicks making out (less clothes, more credit) " and "any albino (black albino, you get activated)."

The public uproar that followed received national media attention. ZBT national headquarters suspended the chapter pending due process from IU administrators. On campus, the Student Coalition, with the goal of forcing ZBT to lose its charter, met with Dean of Students Richard McKaig and organized a demonstration and a protest. Kenneth Gros Louis, Bloomington chancellor and IU vice president, announced that he thought expulsion was the proper sanction.

"The elements of this despicable act combined hazing with both vandalism and vicious insult of virtually every unique culture on this campus," Gros Louis said.

Meanwhile, ZBT president Jason Niennan. a junior,

addressed the campus in several forums to apologize, while also taking the opportunity to explain that the task of writing the search list fell into the wrong hands.

"This year. people were put in charge of the program who weren't aware of the tradition. These people had beliefs that are not the beliefs of the fraternity. These people inserted things in the list that make me disgusted," Nierman said to a group of students at a La Casa meeting specifically called to address the list.

McKaig's ultimate decision to expel ZBT indefinitely came as no surprise to many community members.

McKaig said he wanted to send a clear message that the university would not tolerate hazing or any other actions that endangered the student community.

The blow left ZBT members stunned. But there were

hard lessons for everyone to learn from the incident, especially Nierman.

"My reaction was one of sadness. ZBT had such an amazing tradition. It's hard for me to accept the fact that I need to see something as drastic happen,"Nierman said. "When you're in an organization, if one person falls, then you all fall. We're all taking the fall now."

Members of the Student Coalition saw their will reflected in the verdict.

"The show of activism made the stakes a lot higher," said senior Regan Rush, coalition member and president of the Women's Student Association.

Still, ZBT remained a fraternity, though not university-recognized. Freshman Josh Hedderich pledged for ZBT prior to the arrests. In spite of the

controversy, he kept his original decision to become a ZBT member.

"It would have been easy to turn my back and walk away, but I know it's a good house and a house where I fit in," Hedderich said "Despite the media connotation that ZBT is sexist, racist and bigoted, I'm not and I know ZBT is not."

The incident raised the need for campus-wide multicultural understanding. Various groups initiated diversity dialogues and discussions.

ll fingers pointed toward them. Their organization ignited the fury of an entire campus. Overnight. 1500 A N. Jordan Ave. had turned into a war zone.

People called in the middle of the night, threatening to burn their house down. At 3 a.m., the brothers would check the Indiana Dail) , Student online to determine if it was safe to leave the house the following day. Whenever sophomore Jeremy Rosenstein rode the bus to class, he felt the heat of eyes looking him up and down, fixating on three greek letters embroidered on his jacket: ZBT. "I felt like a piece of me was taken away from me, Rosenstein said.

The initial reactions of disgust and contempt faded in the following weeks, but months later, these memories still struck chords in the minds of the brothers. They knew nothing could change the events that had transpired in two crisp October weeks, but they were determined to make something good come out of something bad.

Every week, the brothers attended diversity education sessions in which they learned about racism, cultures and different ethnicities. Various speakers came to address the brothers on these topics.

The brothers agreed the sessions were both interesting and enlightening.

"Not all of us were racist, but we all could learn from the sessions," junior Jon Nack said.

From the sessions, they developed ideas on how to promote cultural awareness campuswide. They planned a fall concert, "Root, Rock and Race," to feature music and cultural booths, as well as their participation in numerous philanthropic events.

But before they could make plans for the campus. they first had to take care of their shattered fraternity. The University no longer recognized them. The letters had been stripped from their house. And their entire sense of unity hung in the balance.

Many ZBT members struggled with these issues as they agonized over whether to stay or leave the house. Did they want to be associated with the strong campus sentiments?

Could ZBT still fulfill the lofty ideal of brotherhood?

As Nack put it: "This destroyed our house. We were running around in circles."

Still, 24 freshman pledges decided to stay, as did most upperclassmen. But as the brothers found, they had to redefine their system of brotherhood and critically analyze the flaws that led to their downfall.

In retrospect, Rosenstein was not surprised the event occurred. He sensed a lack of cohesiveness among members of his fraternity and in the greek system as a whole.

"There were many gaps in our system. Before this happened, everyone was out there for themselves," Rosenstein said. "People were abusing the system. After awhile, the standards broke clown."

Rosenstein also said prior to the incident, the system allowed racism to exist. While some of the brothers disagreed with these sentiments, he felt they dismissed them and undermined their importance. That, he said, was a mistake.

"Everyone knew that it was out there," Rosenstein said. "I thought (the writer of the list) would keep it inside. He never should have been put in charge of the list."

With this experience came inevitable lessons to be learned. ZBT President Jason Nierman, a junior, described the time as one of the lowest points in his life, as upsetting as a death in the family.

But looking back, Nierman, a self-reported optimist, described it as one of his hest personal experiences. For Nierman, it provided a rite of passage, and after the experience, he began to understand the harmful results stereotyping could bring. He also learned how to better communicate with people in general.

ZBT as a social organization learned some valuable lessons as well. More than anything, they realized that the actions of a few represent a whole.

"We've learned to take a proactive stance," Nack said.

"We've got to have a better system of checks and balances. You have to be more aware of who you are around, and (if there is a problem), help them, and if you can't, stay away."

Sophomore Aaron Pfeffer, the 1998-99 president of ZBT, said the incident actually made the brothers bond together, and their earnest efforts for reform inspired him to take office.

Similarly, Rosenstein would serve as the next year's house manager. He looked forward to his part in rebuilding ZBT. Although they all kept the goal of getting ZBT back on the IU campus, Pfeffer said he recognized the climate that led to their expulsion.

"I can't say I would have made a different decision if I was in (the administration's) shoes," Pfeffer said. "Everything was in disarray. When I look back, it still seems surreal."

Rosenstein, who pledged ZBT in the spring of 1997, never imagined his greek experience would turn out this way. He looked forward to serenades, formals and other rituals — not protests and campus uproar. Still, he wanted to make the most of his membership and help make a difference on the campus. He said the incident could have happened in any greek house, but he embraced the opportunity to provide a service for the students of IU. "I was in the middle of a storm, but at the same time, it was good that it erupted," he said. In

utside the HPER gymnasium, hundreds of dancers anxiously awaited their cues. Excited and nervous, they heard "The Eye of the Tiger" as it began to play on the loudspeaker. With that, they charged into the gym. Inside, the dancers ran through a tunnel formed by rows of Dance Marathon organizers and representatives of Riley's Hospital for Children. Full of energy, several dancers slowed to slap hands with the children who benefitted from the event.

"I can't believe it's really happening," shouted senior Melissa Musselman, Riley Development Director of the event.

Musselman, one of 16 executives of the event, served as a liaison between the marathon council and the hospital.

The event took nine months to prepare and included raising money from across the state. Participants used canning, sponsor endorsements and pledges to collect money. In addition to the financial support of sponsors, many Indiana businesses donated food and supplies, which allowed 100 percent of the money to go directly to Riley's Ryan White Infectious Disease Center.

This year's event raised over $200,000, an increase of more

"Do It For the Kids" continued as the event's motto, and the reason why 600 students sacrificed an entire weekend to help. Music, games, basketball, frisbee and other activities kept the dancers busy throughout the 36-hour marathon. junior Susan Plankar said she decided to participate in the event because she wanted to be part of a winning tradition.

Plankar, a member of Kappa Delta, cited the sorority's tradition of raising the most money over the last four years.

Vincent Buckner, a 17-year-old cerebral palsy patient at the hospital, attended the event. Buckner and hundreds of other patients like him benefitted from IU's largest philanthropic event.

patients like him benefitted from IU's largest philanthropic event.

Wheelchair bound, Buckner maneuvered through the gym taking part in all the activities. His eyes sparkled as the 3,000 participants and volunteers ran past him after the doors to the HPER opened and the marathon began.

Rose Black, Buckner's mother, said he loved the music and offered as proof Buckner's front-row position as he listened to several hands play. "We look forward to this every year," Black said. The family attended the marathon every year since 1992.

The Blacks, who moved to Bloomington from Indianapolis in 1994, complimented the ability of the Bloomington school system to assist families with special needs. Buckner attended Bloomington North High School.

Buckner underwent complete spinal reconstructive surgery in August and recuperated just in time for the event. Volunteers and dancers recognized the Blacks from previous years.

"It's sad when Sunday morning comes because she knows she has to leave her (Dance Marathon) friends and she may never see them again," Black said of her seven-year-old daughter, Cesalie.

As the final seconds of the marathon ticked away, many participants realized the impact they made on the children and families at Riley Hospital.

Dance Marathon attendee, Stacie Thomburgh, a 14-year-old Riley's patient, led a complicated life with heart and lung problems. She praised those responsible for making Dance Marathon possible.

ecalling his life in the segregated South, Martin Luther King, Jr. once said, "People often hate R each other because they fear each other; they fear each other because they do not know each other; they do not know each other because they cannot communicate; they cannot communicate because they are separated."

With Dr. King's message in mind, a committee composed of several student organizations held a Unity Summit on Martin Luther King, Jr. Day, officially observed at the IU Bloomington campus for the first time. The committee hoped to honor the memory of King by unifying people of all backgrounds in a candid discussion concerning race relations in America. IU Student Association president Dave Orensten and Black Student Union president Keisha Alexander, both seniors, served as moderators for the forum.

"If you look at King's speeches and philosophies on life, you see that what he wanted was a unification between communities," Alexander said. "With the summit, we wanted to first unify the black community, then form a unity with other communities and student organizations."

The Monday, Jan. 19, Unity Summit was just one of the various events held to commemorate the life and work of Dr. King. The University decided to cancel classes on King's national holiday, in part, because of a student-led protest march held on King Day 1997. The protest, organized by the Student Coalition, demanded a campus-wide observance of the King holiday, as well as greater efforts to retain and recruit minority and women students and faculty. The administration met all of the Student Coalition's demands within a year.

To combat students' inclinations to sleep in or sit at home on their day off from school, IU joined with the Bloomington community to create a "Day On, Not a Day Off" theme for the day. In an editorial published in the Indiana Daily Student, IU Chancellor Kenneth Gros Louis urged students to participate in the events of the day or volunteer their services.

"The King Day events provide an inspiring springboard to a semester of honest conversation and positive action," Gros Louis said.

The events in celebration of King Day kicked off earlier in the week with the 1998 Martin Luther King, Jr. Essay Competition and Image Awards on Thursday, Jan. 16. Junior Jim Bergstrom won first place in the undergraduate essay competition. Sophomores Khaled

Taha, Nikki Thompson and Vani Menon and junior Angela Ziegler were honored with Image Awards for their commitments toward improving society.

Also on Thursday, a small crowd of people gathered to commemorate the 1997 march and rally on King Day. The group retraced the steps of 1997's march, walking from the Sample Gates to Showalter Fountain, and ended the march with the singing of the civil rights anthem, "We Shall Overcome."

A King Day Mock Protest held at Forest Quad evoked the same spirit of social activism. Put on by the South Side Community Educators, event participants shouted protest chants and slogans, going hack to the era when King led bus boycotts and national marches.

After some speeches and more chants, participants attended 30-minute workshops dealing with student activism and non-violent protests.

Senior Rashida Purifoy acted as the yell leader for the protest. "The Mock Protest was a way for participants to see how it was done in the '60s and to get a feel for student activism," Purifoy said. "It was a way to get students out of their rooms on a day off to learn a thing or two about King, his vision and what it means to be free."

Other events held on King Day included various teach-ins, service projects and a convocation featuring nationally respected and renown speakers, Mary Frances Berry, Sharon Pratt Kelly and Randall Robinson. To some students, the events on King Day helped to alleviate some of the pain caused by raciallycharged incidents like the ZBT scavenger hunt earlier in the school year.

"With incidents like ZBT and Ghana Kai Lee (a history professor who was racially harassed by several of her students), we wanted to conduct a unity summit to relieve some of the tensions of the past year," Alexander said. "We wanted to start over; learn to respect each other again."

As students participated in the numerous events held on the first official IU observance of King Day, they celebrated the memory of a man who lived and died for equal rights and peace. Enrolled at Morehouse College at age 15, leading Birmingham bus boycotts in his mid-twenties and winning a Nobel Peace Prize at the age of 35, King was a visionary at a young age.

"That he did so much so early is an example of empowerment for all students," Gros Louis said.El

embers of Phi Gamma Delta inched toward the front of the stage. No one believed the fraternity would break one of IU MSing's cardinal rules: no crossing the line at the front of the stage.

"We didn't actually cross the line," said sophomore Anthony Ponce, one of Phi Gamma Delta's songleaders. "But we thought it would be a fun idea to play with." This was just one of the traditions that the fraternity mocked in their "Bohemian Fratsody," which took home a remarkable four awards at the 69th annual IU Sing.

The members also wore different costumes and broke out into song for no apparent reason. "It's IU Sing," proclaimed one, in his explanation for his impromptu version of "La Bamba." Wowing both the audience and judges, Phi Gamma Delta won the Overall Award for most points, first prize in Division A, the Choreography Award and the "That's Entertainment" Award for the biggest audience reaction.

"Our goal was to do what we could to entertain the audience," said Ponce. "It kind of seemed like all the acts in IU Sing were starting to look the same." Ponce said he expected the crowd reaction, but did not expect the same reaction from the judges. "For me, nothing could ever top this," he said.

"All Over the World" played as the 1998 IU Sing theme. Due to construction, the event left the traditional confines of the IU Auditorium for the Creative Arts Center. All acts had to have fewer than 45 people and could not use large costumes or scenery because of the new setting. In addition, because the event moved up one week to Feb. 6 and 7, participants had less time to prepare for it.

A six-judge panel voted on the23 acts, based on four separate criteria: musicianship, general effect, music and choreography. The top six point totals in two divisions earned prizes, along with six excellence awards.

Instead of two divisions for groups with different sizes, the Indiana University Student Foundation, the sponsor of the event for the 26th year, split the contest into two divisions for skit content. Division A, won by Phi Gamma Delta, comprised skits with a mix of song and dialogue. All-singing acts made up Division C. The Phi Mu and Sigma Nu duo won this division for its skit "For the Love of Money."

"I was pretty stoked," said junior Chas Maiers, one of Sigma Nu's songleaders. "I don't think Sigma Nu has ever won IU Sing before."

The group's turnaround since the walk-on performance pleased sophomore Kristen Beil, one of Phi Mu's songleaders, who said she was just pleased with the group's ability to pull themselves together and more. "We're just happy that we did well...and that we came full circle," she said.

In a ceremony that precluded Saturday night's festivities, Professor Bill Van Antwerpen was honored with the Herman B Wells Lifetime Achievement Award. The late professor, who taught in the Honors Division, was chosen because of his dedication and love of students.

"He had an ethical and moral tone to everything that he did," said junior Julia Sibert, a one-time Antwerpen student, who presented the award. "He had a real personal interest in every one of his students... and it made you want to do better," she said.ri

The next morning the atmosphere changed. Students and staff struggled to catch a few extra moments of sleep.

After all, it had been a long night.

Declared "Spirit of Sport" weekend by Bloomington Mayor John Fernandez, the Student Athletic Board hosted the 20th annual event. The activities ranged from theNautilus bench press competition to the SAB Slam Dunk contest. Students could also relax playing Euchre, or in the spirit of true Hoosier fashion, play basketball.

Spirit of Sport events catered to a large variety of student abilities and interests.

"This is my first time here at Spirit of Sport, but it has been a really great time, very competitive," said junior Eric Ferrettie of Beta Theta Pi. "It has really brought everyone in our house closer because we are all working for one goal — to win."

Money raised by the event was donated to the Indiana Special Olympics. The event surpassed its goal, and organizers presented the Special Olympics with a check for $12,500 at the closing ceremonies. For the steering committee, the event's success resulted from more than a year's worth of planning.

"It is a wonderful cause to help challenged kids," said freshman Jessica Atleson of Alpha Delta Pi. "This is a great way to do it because it is fun to do while raising money for a good cause."

Ron McGovern, a parent of two special olympians, spoke at the closing ceremonies.

"The money you raise is used for administrative functions and is funneled back to the communities," said McGovern. "You are a big part of making it all happen."

Even though Spirit of Sport functioned as an event of sportsmanship and philanthropy, participants competed for victory and prizes. Organizations played for points to determine overall winners. For the men, Beta Theta Pi and Theta Chi each accumulated 9,950 points. Because the Betas won first place in the most competitions, however, they took home the first place trophy.

Alpha Phi took the women's trophy with 5,425 points.

Greek houses showed the most support for the event, dominating the number of people participating in each event.

Election Scandal IUSA elections contested due to fraud BY

JODI

tudent government elections came and went every spring, and much like their state and national S counterparts, they had been wracked with allegations of rule-breaking and dirty campaigning.

But the Spring 1998 IUSA elections brought even more controversy than usual.

From the moment IU Student Association president Dave Orensten delegated his responsibility to appoint the IUSA Election Commission to fellow senior Steve Chiagouris, IUSA vice president for Congress, the 1998 election was ridden with scandal.

Orensten asked Chiagouris to select the commission in his place because Orensten decided to run for reelection, the first executive in IUSA history to do so.

Junior Brandy Runyan, an off-campus senator, immediately filed a petition against Orensten's appointment of Chiagouris because she said Chiagouris was biased in Orensten's favor.

This disagreement only foreshadowed the events to come.

The days leading up to the election came and went without much ado, with the exception of the occasional debate concerning the usefulness of IUSA, sparked by the "joke ticket" Vast Right Wing Conspiracy's platform. It called for abolishing IUSA and keeping the money for themselves.

Election controversy exploded, however, when a flier for the ORAS ticket, consisting of Orensten, seniors Joe Roman and Jamie Abrams, and junior Kate Schroder, that was distributed to greek supporters came to light.

The flier, entitled "How to Get the Vote Out in a Greek House," contained five steps, including one that said, "If someone is too lazy to vote, get their information and vote for them (you need name, social security and Date of Birth)."

"Listing," the practice outlined in the flier, not only

70 Calendar

MISKELE

went against IUSA election codes, but also violated the Code of Student Rights, Responsibilities and Conduct, which stated misuse of a University identification, such as social security numbers and date of birth, constituted dishonest conduct.

Orensten claimed the flier ORAS actually distributed did not include the last provision, which he said had been blacked out. He also cited as defense an incident of voter fraud ORAS had publicly found and corrected.

He referred to Junior Julia Sibert, an off-campus senatorial candidate on the ORAS ticket. Sibert took part in posting a sign-up sheet at the Gamma Phi Beta sorority house asking for social security numbers and birth dates of the sorority's members. When ORAS officials informed her the practice violated the rules of the Election Commission, she did not use the names.

Sibert was not the only ORAS member to break the rules. Several students came forward after the election, saying ORAS staffers had approached them at Bluebird Nightclub, 216 N. Walnut St., to obtain their voting information.

Unfortunately, ORAS was not the only ticket to go wrong in this election.

The opposing TDBJ ticket, consisting of juniors Khaled Taha, Erin Doty and Shana Brodnax, and senior Eddie Jenkins, was also found guilty of "listing."

Sophomore Danny Chan, a TDBJ Jordan Avenue senatorial candidate, obtained many students. identifications from greek houses.

"I did it. I didn't know it was wrong. If I knew it was wrong, I would have made people go paper ballot," Chan said. "No one said anything to me last year."

Chan, who campaigned for the Orensten's OCBY ticket during the 1997-98 IUSA election, said the executive members of TDBJ remained unaware of his actions.

Students brought forward other allegations as time wore on, and soon it became clear that not only had the election codes been broken by listing, but in several different ways as well. Additional issues plaguing the election included unmanned ballot boxes, unpaid fines from previous elections, and the question of whether or not graduating seniors were allowed to run for office.

The IUSA Supreme Court overturned the original election April 13 in favor of a second one, with a few changes in policy. The court also denied ORAS' Roman, as well as TDBJ's Chan, the right to hold office. Sibert, who was originally included in the ruling, appealed the decision and won.

Elections' Coordinator Katie Diamond disqualified eight ORAS candidates, 10 from TDBJ, five from VRWC

and three Commitment to Assist Student Initiatives funding board candidates. Diamond allowed Doug Moore and Scott DeNardo to run despite being seniors, and two new tickets, ABCD and SGLW, joined the ballot for the second election. The on-line voting system was altered to insure security as well.

The second election saw only five percent of the student population's votes, the lowest in the past decade.

Students cited disgust and apathy for the lack of response at the polls. "I read about it, but I don't really care," sophomore Travis Koomler said of the whole ordeal.

But, as former IUSA vice president of administration Jennifer Borse, a graduate student, put it, "If everyone who has either formally or informally complained about IUSA got involved, there would be a lot less to complain about...

aying it Stak-L, Events organized to keep Little 500 Week fun but safe B K 74 Calendar

lie annual Little 500 bicycle race became a legend in the small town of Bloomington. Students and Bloomington Tresidents spent years attending the event. People traveled to Indiana University to watch a legendary bicycle race and participate in a week-long celebration which some referred to as "the party heard around the world."

In the 1980s, MTV named Little 500 the "World's Greatest College Weekend" and immediately attendance and parties skyrocketed. In 1991, approximately 1,000 people rioted at the Varsity Villas — overturning cars and damaging property. Police arrested about 400 people, and from that point Little 500 would never be the same.

Although things drastically calmed down seven years later, students still found ways to entertain themselves. While a helicopter remained on stand-by, excise police multiplied, wandered and rode bicycles around town and promised to keep the violence to a minimum.

Campus organizations knew what students could get away with was limited, so they sponsored events that anyone and everyone could attend for a minimum price or for free. hi Delta Theta fraternity hosted a concert Monday, April 20 to kick off Little 500 week. Members originally planned to hold p the concert at the fraternity house, but when 4,000 tickets sold out in three days, they decided to find an alternate location. Pic-AChic Farms, located on South Rockport Road, welcomed Mike & Joe, LL Cool J, Sir Mix-A-Lot and over 10,000 screaming fans.

Mike & Joe, an Indianapolis-based band, began playing at 7 p.m.

The crowd became restless while waiting for LL to make his appearance and began rushing toward the stage. Concertgoers began jumping the fence and almost knocked it down while members of Phi Delta Theta announced that if the crowd did not settle down, the concert would be canceled.

After almost an hour, the crowd calmed down, and a man dressed in a black-robe entered the stage and began walking toward the excited fans. He turned his back to the crowd, derobed himself flaunting a red jump suit with his left pant-leg up and began singing "Phenomenon."

"I was in the beer tent with my friends, I turned around and the place was packed," senior Tom Carter said. "Even though it was in a field, you couldn't move. Everyone wanted to get a look at LL." LL Cool J (Ladies Love Cool James) sang crowd favorites "I Need Love" and "Hey Lover." But it was "Momma Said Knock You Out" that got the crowd going. He wrapped up his set and spent a few minutes encouraging fans that fatherhood and looking out for younger family members were important jobs that they should not take lightly.

"He put on a good show and it was a lot of fun," Carter said. "But I was really disappointed that Sir Mix-A-Lot did not perform `Cakeboy' or `Baby Got Back."

Because the concert wrapped up around midnight, fans left Pic-AChic and headed back to campus, home or local bars. The buses loaded people up and carted them back to the fraternity house. Day one came to an end, but the week had just begun.

Little 500 Week 75

uesday night Union Board sponsored an event closer to home. Second City, the infamous comedy Ttroupe from Chicago, performed in Alumni Hall.

Second City had many famous alumni including Dan Akroyd, John Belushi, John Candy, Chris Farley and many others. For just $8 for students and $10 for adults the troupe performed in front of a sold-out audience.

A comedian walked out onto stage and began bouncing around singing, "I'm a morning person." He became more and more annoying increasingly bouncing around and singing until a lady in a nightgown snuck up and shot him in the hack.

This skit represented only one of many crowd-pleasing skits put on by the troupe. It was however the singing of the improvisational song, "Purdue's National Football Championship" that received a warm response from the audience. Troop member Andy Cobb yelled "Fuck You Gene Keady" during the skit provoking a roar of laughter from the audience.

After a two-and-a-half hour performance, audience members left the hall satisfied with the overall performance.

"It was entertaining and rewarding," senior Gabrielle Lewis said. "Who knows we may see one of these characters on 'Saturday Night Live' or in movies someday."

After Second City, students had a few days to venture off and find activities that were in no way related to campus organizations.

Many took advantage of the bar scene, while others stayed at home and relaxed or partied with friends. With nice weather all week, students had many opportunities to spend time outside. riday night Union Board hosted its annual Little 500 concert in Woodlawn Field headlined by The Why F Store with four other bands performing. Local bands, Japonize Elephants, Old Pike and Chamberlain each played for an hour followed by San Francisco-based Uninvited. Uninvited surprised many concertgoers with its original style and lyrics. A song about going to the grocery store while being high caused giggles and looks of confusion to carry throughout the audience.

The four bands entertained, yet crowd members anticipated The Why Store performance. Fans gathered around the stage and wandered throughout Woodlawn Field located behind the School of Health, Physical Education and Recreation waiting for The Why Store to take the stage. The band made its appearance and put on a two-hour set that pleased the crowd. Fans waited to hear their favorite tunes and screamed joyfully when the hand wrapped the concert up with an encore featuring "Knockin' on Heaven's Door."

"I really enjoyed the concert," senior Nancy Ledgerwood said. "Having the concert outside really worked well. Instead of being crammed inside of an auditorium people could move around freely and enjoy the evening."

In addition to a free concert, participants had an opportunity

76 Calendar

to take part in the First Annual Pizza Taste-off. Local pizza joints competed to see who exactly had the best pizza. One dollar bought students a slice of pizza or a soft drink.

People slowly but surely filtered out of Woodlawn Field and went their separate ways around midnight. For some it was still early and they headed out, while others opted for a good night's sleep. In a mere 14 hours the men's Little 500 race would begin. aturday evening people traveled to the Bloomington Convention Center for the last organizations sponsored event of the weekend. IU Soul Revue hosted by the African American Arts Institute entertained audiences once again. Usually held at the IU Auditorium, the Revue welcomed fans to a new atmosphere. The lights went down in The Great Room and a familiar tune began to play.

Members of IU Essence took to center stage as the audience instantaneously began to clap along with the music. Many who attended IU Soul Revues in past years anticipated a night full of entertainment.

"I loved it," junior Erica Stuart said. "I never knew that happened on our campus. They did a really good job of incorporating the audience into the show. I also thought IU Essence performed well and added a special something to the production."

Founded in 1971, the Revue performed black popular music, everything from Janet Jackson's latest release, "I Get Lonely" to classic '60s tunes from Aretha Franklin and Al Green. Members of the Revue encouraged audience members to participate as much as possible.

Visiting Lecturer Cooleridge-Taylor Perkinson served as Acting Director for the Soul Revue in 1997. Perkinson had written and conducted for Alvin Ailey and the Dance Theatre of Harlem. He also composed and conducted scores for many award-winning theatrical, television, film and documentary productions. he organization-sponsored events came to an end and students headed to local bars or parties to T celebrate the end of the legendary week in Bloomington. Arrest numbers dropped tremendously from 60 alcohol-related arrests to nine by the IU Police Department and only 13 by the Bloomington Police Department. 1998 marked a quiet week for Little 500 events and gave students hope that things would continue on a positive note so they could enjoy themselves.

"When I first came to IU I felt like Little 500 was predominantly Greek, but with organizations sponsoring events for everyone I feel that things have changed," Lewis said. "All the events gave students a chance to get out and celebrate the infamous Little 500 race that we've all heard about for many years." in

s he rounded the corner, he almost careened out of control. He glanced over to the next A lane, only to see his competitor fast approaching. He leaned forward and sprinted toward the finish line. In less than 15 seconds, he managed to pedal his way to victory.

This scenario was typical of many of the tightly contested races in the 44th annual event. "Practices were really serious because everyone wanted to win.

It came clown to who had the most control of the trike, not just who had the most speed," said junior Anne Ward of One Sweeeet Team.

At then end of the competition, Pi Kappa Phi, Alpha Gamma Delta and Censored captured the victory in the men's, women's and co-ed competitions.

Controversy marked the conclusion of the event when the second-place finisher in the men's race, Delta Chi, was incorrectly named champion. Race officials said this occurred because the announcement was made before times were confirmed. Forty minutes passed before officials corrected the mistake and announced Pi Kappa Phi the actual winner of the race.

For most, however, the race provided an atmosphere of fun and friendly competition. "Mini 5 is a fun way to get involved in Little 5 without a huge time commitment. (It's) a chance to do something you can't ever do again once you leave IU," said junior Jeff Pelger of Nasty Boyz.

The theme, "Return of the 'Hikers," fell in line with themes from the recent Mini 500 races. The previous year's theme, "The Empire Trikes Back," also utilized it Star Wars' motif.

When it came time to decide what to wear to the race, however, most teams chose to forget the theme and go with something more traditional or highly usual. While most teams wore matching t-shirts, others dressed in more outrageous costumes, including pajamas and cross-gendered attire.

In a show of support, friends and family of Bad Mommas on Trikes wore t-shirts, shorts and hats that matched the team's. "We did it because sororities and fraternities do it, and it was nice to look in the stands and see our supporters," said junior Bobbie Pollard.

"The whole event was definitely a thrill."

n the last lap of the 1998 Men's Little 500 race, sophomore Greg O'Brien knew what he had to do.

Outfitted in the dark green jersey of the pole position team, O'Brien fought with five other riders for position in the final lap. He made his move on the fourth turn of lap 199 and sprinted his way to the checkered flag with a time of 2:06:25.853. The victory marked the first for Dodds House and the first time a residence hall team won the race since South Cottage Grove won in 1955.

"I started my sprint early, which caught some: people by surprise," O'Brien said. "The pack was waiting for someone: to make a move. My coach told me to take off before the fourth turn, so I picked a spot and once I got to it, I just took off."

Dodds held the pole position at the beginnini of the race, the first residence hall team to do so since the 1973 Dodds team held the position.

The experienced Dodds' team remained among the leaders for the entire race and handed the bike to O'Brien on lap 193 for a sprint to victory.

"Our initial strategy was to put the hurt on other teams by pushing the pace,"O'Brien said. "We were trying to narrow it down to about three teams on the last lap."

The win tasted especially sweet for the veteran Dodds team who suffered a wreck in 1997 which put it out of contention. The team used its experience from past races to its advantage.

When slapped for a two-second penalty for an illegal exchange, for example, the team responded better than a rookie team would have.

Dodds' performance on the day of the race resulted from a grueling training schedule and hours of riding. "You have to train all year if you want to be a contender," said O'Brien.

"We put in more time than a varsity sport, and it is hard to put in that much time when it just comes down to one day."

On his sprint to victory, O'Brien held off 1997 champion Cutters, who finished less than three-tenths of a second behind Dodds. The finish landed the five-time champions a victory in the independent division.

Ironically, the Cutters won the previous year's race on the last lap sprint by edging out Phi Gamma Delta by a wheel.

This time, they finished a wheel short in the final sprint.

Dodds House and Cutters were the only teams in contention that did not come from greek houses. Dodds became the 11th winner in the race's 58-year history not to ride for a fraternity. continued

"I think it is good for the race that we aren't a greek team and to have a couple of teams other than fraternities do well," O'Brien said. "Dodds and Cutters both have a lot of tradition, and it helps so the race isn't just a greek thing."

Sigma Alpha Epsilon challenged Dodds and Cutters for the lead at the end of it. SAE began the race in the middle of row one and led for much of the race. A veteran SAE team used its team speed to finish third overall. Each of SAE's riders placed in the top seven at the Individual Time Trials held April S. Beta Theta Pi moved from its 1 lth-place start in the fourth row to capture a fourth-place finish. The Betas, whose sole Little 500 win came in 1964, fought with the rest of the pack for the checkered flag at the end of the race, but like the others, came up short in the sprint.

The biggest comeback of the race belonged to sixtime winner and 1997 runner-up Phi Gamma Delta, which had to regroup after a wreck on the 23rd lap.

The Fiji riders recovered quickly from the accident and returned to contention by lap 40.

"Our strategy changed because we had to catch up," said Fiji senior Jim Lohman. "You don't plan on it and when something happens, you have to change your strategy in an instant, but we were in it at the end of the race, which is where you want to be."

The Fiji team finished the race in fifth place overall.

Three-time winner Acacia battled for the lead at the end of the race and improved its 10th-place starting position to finish sixth. Acacia was powered all day by Individual Time Trial winner junior Kurt Gensheimer, who rode the majority of the laps for the team.

"To see Greg break away and cross the finish line first was a hard time for me to just sit and watch," said freshman Marcus Purvis of Dodds. "It just seems surreal. I still can't believed it happened." in

The crowd of IU students, alumni and visitors began to cheer as the announcer broadcast "Ladies, mount your Roadmaster Bicycles" over the loudspeaker.

As holders of the pole position, Kappa Kappa Gamma led the 32 teams competing in the race. "We were excited because it was the second year in a row," junior Suzanne Bero said. "Pole position obviously is nice. I think it helps our confidence. You can avoid a l^ )1 of the wrecks that happen in the back (of the pack)." Wrecks were not a concern compared with the riders of Kappa Alpha Theta and Alpha Chi Omega, the second and third position teams, respectively.

The top three qualifying teams, dominated the first half ol the race. But at the turn of the 50th lap, Chi Omega and the independent team and defending champions, the Roadrunners, began to close in. The race continued with the top teams battling to stay ahead. Kappa Kappa Gamma riders junior Lisa Roessler, Bero, senior Jen Downing and sophomore Elizabeth Andrew all rode notable stretches.

Lap 99 saw Roessler sprint on the final turn to beat Chi Omega's junior Lindsey Hawkins. Roessler's sprinting ability outlasted Hawkins' time by less than a second to capture Kappa Kappa Gamma's Women's Little 500 championship title for the second time since the race began. continued

"Lindsey Hawkins is one of the fastest people, but mentally I knew I could do it and it came down to the last straightaway," Roessler said.

The white flag came down with Kappa Kappa Gamma taking the overall title, Chi Omega finishing second and the Thetas falling from its second-place qualifying position to finish third.

A sea of women in green shirts paraded Onto the track to celebrate the victory, as other teams realized the value of a few seconds.

Despite an impressive second-place finish, Hawkins felt saddened by the end results. "When I was here last year, we didn't expect to he in the top 10. But when you are this close you can't help but be disappointed."

Sophomore Nicole Duggan of Kappa Alpha Theta, on the other hand, did not feel they lost anything by coming in third place. "(It) feels great because we're all rookies. None of us really knew what it was going to be like. It's a wonderful experience."

Starting in the last position and finishing in seventh place, Alpha Gamma Delta provided the biggest surprise of the race by making the biggest move in the race and advancing 25 spots. "We had a lot of pride in our team. We knew we qualified last, but knew we could prove to ourselves and everyone that we are better than that," said sophomore Arity Thurnau as she stood in the stands supporting her sisters.

housands of people filed into Assembly Hall Saturday, May 9 anticipating the day's events. Many people smiled and others Tcried while waiting for the ceremony to begin. Generally the abundance of emotion would mean one thing — a win or a loss of the men's basketball team. But on this day graduation caused the emotion.

At 8:15 a.m. the first set of students gathered in the Harry Gladstein Fieldhouse to prepare for commencement. Friends and faculty helped students into their gowns as they filled out information cards and had their pictures taken. "It was pretty much pointless for us to be there that early," Kelley School of Business graduate Jeff McKinney said. 'All we really did was fill out a yellow card and stand there waiting for an hour."

After the wait was over, students filed into Assembly Hall for the last time as students to begin the first of two graduation ceremonies held at 10:00 a.m. and 2:30 p.m. Memorial Stadium generally hosted the ceremony, but because real grass recently replaced the astroturf, Assembly Hall became the new home for commencement.

Students packed the floor and bleachers dressed in caps and gowns with different colored tassels representing the school from which each student graduated. Some students decorated their caps with photos, numbers (420) and nicknames. Students tossed around a beach ball until organizers took it away, and others even talked to friends or family on cellular phones while the ceremony took place.

The Indiana University Commencement Band kicked things off with the traditional graduation song — "Pomp and Circumstance" and "The Star Spangled Banner." President Myles Brand welcomed students after the Invocation by Father Daniel Atkins, Co-Pastor, St. Paul's Catholic Center. President Brand introduced Chancellor Herman B Wells who received a standing ovation and tipped his hat to the crowd.

Sylvia McNair, a 1983 IU Master of Music with distinction and an accomplished soprano, gave the commencement address and reminded students of the madness of finding books in the bookstore. "I was amazed by all the terms used," McNair said. "Then I saw summer and I realized what I had done wrong with my life — I should have majored in summer."

McNair continued her speech reminding graduates that life would not be easy, but they could make it.

Graduates and commencement attendees had mixed emotions about McNair's speech. "It would have been nice to have someone speak who had real life experience, not just an opera singer," McKinney said.

She was a good speaker but I had a hard time comparing her 'struggles' to mine."

After McNair's address, the conferal of Honorary degrees took place. McNair received a doctorate in music. IU also gave honorary degrees to Odile Eisenstein, doctorate of science; Karl Hass, doctorate of music; and George P. Smith II, doctorate of laws.

President Brand gave students a speech of encouragement as they ended their stay at IU. He mentioned different graduates and their backgrounds including athletes, well-accomplished students and a member of a family with six siblings who all attended

IU. "It's amazing," Brand said. "Six children and not one loss to Purdue."

After Brand's address to the students, the conferal of degrees took place. The morning honored students from the Kelley School of Business, School of Public and Environmental Affairs, School of Health, Physical Education and Recreation, School of Music, School of Law and Graduate School. The afternoon session recognized students graduating from the College of Arts and Sciences, School of Continuing Studies, School of Library and Information Science, School of Optometry, School of Journalism and Graduate School. In total IU gave 5,994 degrees.

As the deans were asked to introduce their schools, students applauded and showed excitement. In the afternoon session journalism students showed the most emotion standing up and cheering when Dean Trevor Brown took the microphone.

Doctoral candidates walked along with their advisors to the front of the main stage. The advisors then hooded the candidates. And one by one they walked across the stage and received recognition for their hard work and dedication. After four years at IU, doctoral candidate Divya McMillin completed her dissertation and received her Ph.D. in mass communication.

"I thought (recognizing the candidates) was a nice thing to do for us," McMillin said. I especially though it was a nice gesture that the advisers hooded us. They work with us through everything, and in most cases, the adviser turns into a good friend."

The day's events ended with an invitation for graduates to join the Alumni Association, the singing of "Hail to Old IT?., the Benediction, wishes of good luck and a recessional by the IU Commencement Band. Graduates searched the halls for friends and family and headed out of Assembly Hall for the first time as alumni.

Graduation held different meanings for all alumni. But the one thing they all had in common was that it represented the end of the college era and the beginning of a new one.

For McKinney, he was the first one from his family to graduate and receiving his degree was an important accomplishment for him. "Basically the only reason I went to graduation was because my parents and family were down. I felt it was something I was obligated to do after finishing my education, My parents saw me, and I think that made their day," McKinney said. "It doesn't feel all that different. I no longer have to worry about school, but now I have to worry about moving.... it's a never-ending cycle." in

S-4 Gene Richards stood behind a concrete wall with a M M-16 resting by his side. He silently waited for the MS-3 company to pass him. As soon as they did, he moved out from behind the wall and gave the signal for the enemy to attack. Cadets hit the ground and the sounds "Bang! Bang! Bang!" could be heard as they pointed their guns toward the enemy. The sounds however, weren't coming from their weapons but, from their mouths.

This wasn't war, but it was a Friday morning battle drill for Indiana University ROTC. continued

doing field operations all night.

The site of the drill was Cascades Park,a frequent training ground for cadets on Friday mornings.

The ritual for an ROTC cadet included waking up every Monday, Wednesday and Friday in time to reach the HPER by 6 a.m. for physical training which consisted of a healthy dose of push-ups, sit-ups and running. On Fridays, the ritual was the same except that at 8 a.m., cadets had to arrive for their weekly lab. Labs consisted of various exercises including water training, land navigation, rapelling and first aid. These were just a few of the labs cadets had during the year.

Most ROTC (Reserve Officer Training Corps) cadets began training as freshman enrolled in the MS (Military Science)-1 program and worked their way through their MS-2, MS-3 and MS-4 years. IU cadets were commissioned as Second Lieutenants in the U.S. Army after they completed ROTC and graduated.

For some, joining ROTC was the most logical step for preparing for the Army while also obtaining a college education. Senior Paul Russell started ROTC in the beginning of his sophomore year. "I didn't know what I was getting myself into. I knew a little bit of what I wanted, the leadership, etc.," Russell said.

"But other than the stories I heard from my grandfather, I had no idea what I was getting myself into. As the program developed and I developed, I realized that this is what I wanted to do, and an Army officer was what I wanted to be."

Joining ROTC required that students took one course and one lab every semester. Freshmen and sophomores were not obligated to become officers, but cadets in their junior and senior year are committed to serve as an officer on active or reserve duty when they graduated.

As an MS-1 or MS-2, most cadets agreed they had fun. "I didn't know about it until the second semester of my freshman year," said senior Christine Hansen. "My experience these first two years really reinforced that this is whatI wanted to do. It was fun for me."

But the real challenge in the ROTC program lay in the junior year of training. If a cadet had what it took to make it in the Army, he or she would find out during this year.

consisted of dinner, a guest speaker and dancing.

THE CRUCIAL MS-3 YEAR During the MS-3 year, cadets spent the year preparing for advanced camp held the following summer. The preparation included weekly battle drills and several FTXs (Field Training Exercises) throughout the year. The battle drills, which were usually held in Cascades Park, consisted of the MS-3s being instructed to travel through the woods until they were attacked by the enemy (the MS-4s). Through these drills, cadets learned to coordinate plans, lead their platoon and take orders.

"The MS-3 year is the most challenging," said Hansen.

"You're always tired. The PT (physical training) is challenging. The first couple of weeks are really bad. You're wrong no matter what you do."

But despite the difficulties of the MS-3 year, she believed it was the year she benefited from the most.

Russell was an MS-3 trainer his senior year and in charge of executing and overseeing everyday operations.

"I can definitely tell that they were ready to go into Fort Lewis in the last couple of weeks. We had done everything we could for them, and the time to hold their hands was over."

Russell believed his experience in ROTC was irreplaceable. After graduating from IU, Russell left for Officer's Basic Course (OBC) at Ft. Leonardwood, Mo. When he graduated on September 29, he left for a three-year tour of Germany, to be in charge of an engineering platoon.

"The only way you could be an MS-4 trainer was to be an MS-3. The only way I could he a good second lieutenant is to be a second lieutenant. It's good to have a teacher show you where you should be, but the only way to understand something is to experience it.-

Their IU Coursework With Jobs, Kids and Other Responsibilities

n August, junior Nancy Morlan waited patiently to register for classes just like any other student. But to one student assistant, she stood out from the crowd. "Ma'am," he said, -you're in the wrong line. The parents are supposed to wait over there."

"I'm a student, - she replied.

At 47, Morlan defied the image of a typical college student and joined many other nontraditional students at IU. Sally Jones, the program developer for the School of Continuing Studies, said about 2,000 nontraditional students enrolled in the undergraduate program.

"Education is an economic necessity to compete in the working world," Jones said. "People appreciate and value college degrees." Jones felt major life changes, such as a divorce or the death of a spouse, often motivated adults to attain a higher education.

A history major, Morlan married and had her first child shortly after high school but divorced two years later. In the following years, she worked in human resources while raising her two children. In 1995, she enrolled at Glen Oaks Community College in Centreville, Mich., and transferred to IU in the fall of 1997.

"I was kind of at a point where I couldn't go any further without a degree," Morlan said.

Despite her enthusiasm for learning, Morlan did not arrive at her decision without apprehension.

"I've always had a bit of a self-esteem problem," she said "I felt I was a mediocre student. Had I gone to college right out of high school, maybe it would have been self-defeating."

More than anything, Morlan feared performing poorly.

But this worry proved unfounded. In her first semester she achieved a near-perfect grade point average.

"I really got hooked after the first semester. All I wanted to do was study. My biggest obstacle at IU is walking from Sixth St. to the second floor at Ballantine," she said. "Today I made it on time for the very first time."

While Morlan began college after her daughters grew up, 29-year-old junior, Jennifer Alberson, juggled

going to school, working for Sam's Club and singlehandedly raising her seven-year-old daughter, Vanessa.

A special education major, Alberson completed two years at Ball State University after high school but quit after getting married. Like Morlan, she divorced two years later.

"I decided in today's age, you need a better education to make more money," she said.

Alberson found her challenge of "doing it all" tremendously demanding. "It's rough," Alberson said.

"When I went to school before, I had a 4.0 (grade point average) and plenty of time to study. Now I never get to bed before 2 a.m."

Initially, Alberson's family questioned her ability to properly raise Vanessa. As a single mother, she too had her doubts.

"I sometimes wonder, 'How do I raise my daughter by myself?' When I was her age, I had a mom and a dad. I try to give Vanessa the same childhood I had, but

I can't. I feel guilty that I'm not giving her enough," Alberson said.

Though considerably older than many of their classmates, both women said they felt comfortable with their new setting.

"Everyone seems so accepting," Morlan said. "I think that I have an edge over everyone else, because I can relate certain things to real life experiences."

Alberson expressed a similar feeling.

"Before, I really wouldn't have understood things that I do now," Alberson said. "When you are fresh out of high school, you don't have a perspective on things. When I talk to (younger classmates), I feel they don't have a clue, no concept of budgeting time or money. I guess I didn't either. Now I'm always thinking in terms of what's best for Vanessa and what I can afford." continited

While college is a new experience for these women, Allan Gutstadt spent much of his life on a university campus. He earned a bachelor's degree from Illinois and a Ph.D in geology from Northwestern.

His career led him to a variety of locations, ranging from Indiana to Venezuela, and he taught at California State University. After he retired, Gutstadt settled in Indiana and dedicated himself to the pursuit of further learning for his own personal betterment.

"My career lets me see both sides of the educational system. I can empathize with both the students and the teachers," he said.

Once free from the pressure of earning top grades, Gutstadt found he enjoyed learning in a more relaxed manner. But Morlan and Alberson still placed great emphasis on their scores.

Studying under a younger professor provided Morlan with a unique experience. had an economics professor who was 33 and had a different perspective. I don't like to say I'm set in my ways, but I do have definite critical views and ideas, so we had some very interesting discussions," Morlan said.

Sometimes Morlan's older status gave way to preconceived notions about her generation. During Morlan's scheduling session, the adviser suggested she take an introductory computer course, though she had used computers in the work place.

"I was amazed she made the assumption that I was computer illiterate," Morlan said. In the future, Morlan planned to attend law school, while Alberson hoped to land a teaching position.

"I'll be in my 50s by the time I'm done," Morlan said.

"Someone told me, 'You'll still be that age, so you might as well be that age with a degree.As a daily reminder of her goals, Morlan kept her source of inspiration taped to her computer. "I have a sign that says, 'You get what you expect,- Morlan said. "If I expect great things, it will happen."

Alberson encouraged students considering returning to school to do so. "Some people think, 'I'll never be able to afford it.' It's rough, but it will be worth it. I have to keep telling myself that," Alberson said. in

IU Adds New

in Cognitive Science for Students Interested in Information Systems

n the first day of fall semester classes, freshman Adrian Bisson made a choice that affected the rest of his academic life — he dropped his calculus class. In its place, he added Q240, Philosophical Foundations of the Cognitive and Information Sciences, Soon Bisson changed his major from Exploratory to Cognitive Science. In doing so he joined about 40 other students as members of the new, stand alone, undergraduate cognitive science major. The new program became one of only a few such programs in the United States.

Cognitive science focused on the study of intelligent systems — both the human and mechanical mind. It used such diverse fields as psychology, math, linguistics, computer science, biology, philosophy and neuroscience to discover how the mind works.

"I've always been fascinated by the concept of artificial intelligence," Bisson said, "(Cognitive science) is sort of the perfect combination of things I'm interested in."

Bisson certainly did not stand alone in his interest in these fields. The new department featured one of IU's more famous first-year students, freshman Shannon Sullivan. "Newsweek" and the "Today Show Weekend Edition," a national news broadcast, featured Sullivan largely because of her choice to attend IU and its cognitive science program over Harvard University and the prestige of the Ivy League.

"We seem to be attracting curious, creative and bright students with a combination of interests in biological sciences and mathematics, social and psychological sciences and philosophy," said Richard Shiffrin, director of the cognitive science program.

Cognitive science required students to take courses from other departments, but the new major also added four new core courses, said Melinda Stephan, undergraduate advisor for the Cognitive Science program.

The new core courses included Philosophical Foundations of CIS (Cognitive and Informational

Sciences), Math and Logic for CIS, Computation in CIS and Experiments in Cognition. These classes took the place of an introductory survey course and gave students the background necessary for other cognitive science classes.

Shiffrin said because cognitive science covered a broad field, a survey course could not adequately introduce all the related fields. Instead, students could choose from one of six concentrations: cognition, computation, foundations of philosophy, language, logic or neuroscience.

Senior Allen Hutchison enrolled in the cognitive science program because he liked its interdisciplinary features. "When I came to IU I was a business and music double major. That didn't work out, so I decided to major in computer science.- Hutchison said.

Studying computer science sparked his interest in artificial intelligence. He took Q300, the first cognitive science class offered for IU undergraduates, and hoped to use his cognitive science training to become a university professor.

Shiffrin expected the program to grow as the general public became aware of cognitive science and the employment opportunities it might offer. Shiffrin said the business community took interest in the skills taught by cognitive science courses, such as computer programming, technical writing and critical evaluation of evidence and data.

But cognitive science students could also find jobs in everything from philosophy to data analysis or Bisson's interest — software design.

The new undergraduate major joined an already established graduate program and a joint major program.

Shiffrin expected the department to grow enough to support a cognitive science office space and to eventually include more students and more applied research.

"We're all sort of learning as we go because this is new," Shiffrin said. "As long as we retain flexibility and adapt to students, things will work out well."in

Kinsey Institute Marks

50 Y1-41, VRS Exhibit at School of Fine Arts displays institute's art collection.

half-century ago, Indiana University became the permanent home of Dr. Alfred A C. Kinsey's Institute of Sex Research.

Kinsey became the first person to publish a scientific account of human sexual behavior. And in past decades, IU carried on this tradition of sexual research. Oct. 24, the institute (renamed The Kinsey Institute for Research in Sex, Gender and Reproduction) celebrated its 50th anniversary with the opening of an exhibit at the School of Fine Arts.

Dr. John Bancroft, the institute's director, kicked off the opening night with a speech entitled "The Kinsey Institute Today." He spoke about the importance of the group's research and gave a

Bloomington residents Debbie Walls and Melinda Olmer chat about the Kinsey exhibit on opening night. In the main room of the School of Fine Arts gallery, a projector cast a series of images on the wall with information about each of the pieces. All of the art shown appeared on exhibit in the Gallery, and stayed on display from Oct. 24 until Dec. 5.

historical perspective on Kinsey's work.

"There is no such thing as the Kinsey model," Bancroft said. "Throughout his writing, Kinsey never drew moral distinctions." This scientific approach made Kinsey stand out from previous sex researchers.

In 1938, IU created a class designed for married students and hired Kinsey to teach it. But he found that virtually all the research compiled on sexual activity either possessed a moralistic motive or lacked a large sample. The need for better research led to his preliminary studies and eventually to the development of the institute bearing his name.

"Most of us see our sexual lives as very private," Bancroft said. "But the majority of people will talk if you have a purpose and ensure confidentiality."

Not only did people provide the Kinsey Institute with data, but many individuals donated artwork to its collection. Photographs, drawings, paintings and movie posters covered the walls. The art ranged from works by legends to pop culture images. A Marc Chagall lithograph, a Thomas Hart Benton sketch and a Rembrandt etching shared company with a sketch of Batman, Robin and Catwoman copulating. The photography included pieces by Robert Mapplethorpe and John Alexander Scott Coutts.

The exhibit featured more than two-dimensional art. It also displayed genuine artifacts from other countries. In the main room of the gallery, one glass case housed a slightly rusted chastity belt from 19th century Europe. Another contained 17th century Japanese scrolls (copied from 12M-14th century pieces) depicting men and women engaged in sexual encounters. A tapestry from Japan displayed a giant, erect penis. And a case in the gallery entryway contained a group of novelty condoms featuring rhinestones.

Upon the completion of Bancroft's lecture, the crowd went upstairs to the Fine Arts Gallery to view samples from this collection. "The Art of Desire: Erotic Treasures from The Kinsey Institute" highlighted the collection of sex-related artwork that the institute gathered over the past five decades.

The exhibit ran until Dec. 5 in the SoFA Gallery.

"There were some things that shocked me more than others," sophomore Kelly Tingle said. "The condom exhibit at the front was rather shocking. Some of the pictures I found to be very artistic and very much pieces of artwork, just celebrations of the body."

Despite complaints from groups such as the Concerned Women of America, which staged a protest the day after the exhibit opened, a large crowd attended the event. "I think it came off very well," graduate student Sharon Weyser said. "They had a great turnout and they showed a lot of interesting stuff."

Dr. Kinsey's research paid off and he published Sexual Behavior in the Human Male and Sexual Behavior in the Human Female before his death — Aug. 25, 1956. Kinsey also achieved his goal of educating people about human sexuality with the exhibit. "Overall, the exhibition site was very educational," Tingle said. "I never realized there was so much sexually explicit material and so much of a focus on sex before the 1950s." Ei

Christine

BARBOUR Political Science professor wins students over with her enthusiasm

n her nine years of teaching at Indiana University, political science Professor Christine Barbour gained the praise of numerous students because of her I enthusiasm for her field and her students.

Barbour, a native of Ann Arbor, Mich., entered IU as a student in 1976. She began teaching in the political science department in 1990 after deciding to pursue the teaching profession instead of law during her senior year. She subsequently earned a master's degree and Ph.D. in political science. Barbour always focused on teaching rather than research, and she said she never regretted the decision.

"I never knew I could get that excited about ideas," Barbour said. "I love standing up in front of a group and getting them excited about ideas."

Barbour specialized in comparative politics and political philosophy, but became well-known by students for her teaching of Y103: Introduction to American Politics Her enthusiastic style of teaching separated Barbour from other professors. She always impressed students with the manner by which she conducted a class.

Senior Emily Bardelas said the humor used during Barbour's Y103 class made it one of her favorites.

"Her lively lectures are well-known to many because of her quick wit and talent for stirring up debates within the class," Bardelas said. "After four years at IU, (Y103) was one of the few classes that I could sit through without checking my watch."

Despite the strong reception to Barbour's lectures in the fall, the professor said the art of teaching constituted an arduous learning process that encompassed many years. Barbour called teaching hard work, containing nothing particularly instinctive about it. But she enjoyed interacting with students, whom she saw as interesting people with endless potential when mixed with the knowledge

130 Academics

of an enthusiastic professor.

"I like interacting with a class and having students be as interested as I am," Barbour said. "It can he magic if you combine what you know with the students."

Barbour also attempted to transform the enthusiasm and energy she put into her daily lectures into her writing. Barbour and her husband, fellow political science Professor Gerald Wright, began work on a co-authored textbook for American politics classes. While Barbour loved writing just as much as lecturing, she said the entire process of writing a textbook presented challenges, down to the language used.

"You have to write at a level students can understand without being condescending to them," Barbour said. Its hard (to write the book) to be intellectually respected enough for a professor to order and still (be) understandable to students."

Her ability to adequately explain the intricacies of the fundamentals of politics again attracted praise from students. Sophomore Tony Di Guiseppe said that while he did not find the subject of politics interesting, he still enjoyed Barbour's class.

"I don't really like politics, but the way she explained it made it interesting, so I attended class more," Di Guiseppe said. "She was enthusiastic about it and illustrated it, so it was easy to understand."

Barbour took a sabbatical during the spring semester to devote all her efforts to finishing her textbook. She said even though she would spend the majority of her time on the textbook project, the time away from teaching would allow her to refuel.

"I've grown every year I have taught; every year has gotten better," Barbour said. "I have to remember that classes are not about me, it is about (students). It takes the pressure away." in

New Deans Bring

,XPERIENCE to School of Business, School of Music an Dalton moved from assistant dean of the School of Business to dean of the newlyrenamed Kelly School of Business in the fall of 1997. The new dean had one all-consuming goal — keeping the school in its competitive national position.

"We need to redouble our efforts to maintain our very high ranking," Dalton said. "In order to accomplish that we need to be innovative and extraordinarily careful. We can talk a lot about facilities and funding, but at the end of the day no school is better than its faculty."

Dalton said more than 600 corporations visited IU each year because of its excellent reputation and programs. "We need to keep in mind the recruitment and retention of business students," Dalton said.

Students said Dalton's programs played an influential role in their professional and academic development.

"I just think it is great that so many companies from all over the world come to IU to recruit at our business school," senior Natalie Donnelly said.

Since Dalton took on his new position as dean, the school received authorization to build a new graduate School of Business. Dalton played a key role in obtaining the $12 million needed from the state legislature and an additional $18 million from IU. Dalton said the school needed to raise $55 million to complete this project. By January, the School of Business had earned 80 percent of the $37 million needed for the project.

In addition, the School of Business added 10 new members to the faculty. "We are extraordinarily careful about the quality of the faculty members we hire," Dalton said.

"We also continue to study our curriculum and maintain our innovative curriculum at the School of Business."

A typical day for Dalton included meeting with faculty members and associate deans, starting at 8:30 a.m. From 12:00 to 2:00 p.m. daily Dalton met an academic council comprised of members of the office of the dean,

chairpersons of various programs, department chairpersons and elected members from the School of Business. And he usually spent afternoons in more meetings with faculty and students.

Dalton also spent much of his time traveling. "I am on the road a great deal, largely for development issues," Dalton said. "That is something which is going well."

Dalton said a large group of people within the School of Business organized programs implemented by the deans. Coupled with student groups, he faced a constant challenge facilitating all the events.

But Dalton's efforts in this area pleased his colleagues. Associate Dean Bruce Jaffee said Dalton always maintained his availability to students and staff.

I think one of the most important aspects of his work is his open-door policy," Jaffee said. "He is readily accessible for students and interested in their concerns and suggestions."

Dalton said the degree of authority represented the primary difference between his former role as associate dean and his current position. "As an associate dean I was a reasonably good counselor," Dalton said.

"Sometimes my ideas were accepted, but I didn't have a final response. As dean you were responsible for those activities and decisions which was a big change."

When Dalton did not find himself occupied by business school concerns, he could often be found playing golf, reading or spending time with his wife.

But he also hoped his colleagues considered him a fair and industrious person.

"What I enjoy is that he is organized and quick to make decisions but open to suggestions," Jaffee said.

"He has a great sense of humor and doesn't take himself to seriously. He creates an informal and relaxed atmosphere. He brings a passion to the Kelley School of Business."

greatest facilities in the entire world..." or David G. Woods, music always meant more than just something to listen to and enjoy. So his F job as the dean of the School of Music fit perfectly.

In 1997, Woods became only the third dean in 50 years at the School of Music, replacing Charles Webb.

The University officially appointed Woods dean July 1, and he took office Sept. 15.

He remained dedicated to keeping the school's legacies and traditions alive. He also focused on developing technology programs and interactive longdistance learning programs. For example, Woods said the school finished preparations to begin an interactive video program with the Royal Academy of Music in London.

"Our students would be able to interact immediately with the students of the Royal Academy and with the teachers of the Royal Academy," Woods said "It will be the first time that any school of music in the world will have this capability."

Woods said the love students had for the School of Music drew him to IU. His first visit during the winter of 1996-97 demonstrated that love. On a snowy day, a student met Woods near the Indiana Memorial Union and gave him a tour of the facilities.

"Not only was I impressed with the fact that this School of Music had the greatest facilities in the entire world for a conservatory or school of music," Woods said. "But I was impressed with the love this man had for the IU School of Music and his gratitude for what it had done for him in preparing him for a future in teaching and musical performance."

Woods said he took pride in IU's status among the best music schools in the country. In March of 1997, U.S. News and World Report rated the program just one-tenth of a point behind the Eastman School of Music as the best of its kind in the country, ahead of 563 other schools.

"We are the best because of the quality teaching, the quality faculty, the most outstanding players and performers in the world, a quality student body, an

unparalleled library facility and a Musical Arts Center which is second to none in the country," Woods said.

Woods dedicated his efforts to international programs and expanding the reputation of IU throughout the state and world. To that end, the school established a hometown recital series for IU students.

"When these students give their senior recitals, I encourage them to take the senior recital to their home towns and to perform for their friends and relatives," Woods said. "I go to the hometown and introduce the students and thank the third-grade music teacher and the junior high band director and his or her parents who made this all possible."

Woods said this personal attention took the rich environment of music into the cities, towns and small rural communities within the state.

The new dean said he could not tackle these musical endeavors without the support of his family and friends. His mother and sister visited Bloomington several times to spend time with the dean and participate in major social functions.

Junior Ellie Veigel enjoyed her experiences in the School of Music because of the well-rounded nature that Woods worked to maintain.

"One of the things that I like about the school is the fact that there are students and staff members from a variety of nationalities," Veigel said. "One of the things that helped me choose IU over other schools was the mixture of traditional and more contemporary styles of music within the curriculum."

Professors and staff members at the School of Music enjoyed working with Dean Woods. "He is a wonderful administrator to work with and has great personal skills in dealing with people and problems," assistant dean Lawrence Hurst said. "He is compassionate and caring toward faculty and students alike and at the same time has definite ideas and visions from which he does not waver. I believe he has made an enormous impact on the school and many people outside the University."

Detective reveals

EVIDENCE LAPD's Vannatter speaks to students about the O.J. trial n 27 years as a homicide detective for the Los

Angeles Police Department, Phillip Vannatter

I worked on a number of cases. But the murder trial of

O.J. Simpson stood out for him.

"I never had a case with more physical evidence in my career," Vannatter told criminal justice students. "But what can you do when 10 percent of the public still believes that Elvis is alive?"

Vannatter spoke Sept. 10 in Ballantine Hall about the murder trial of NFL Hall of Fame running back Simpson.

He offered insight into the Simpson murder that an LAPD-enforced gag order had previously prevented him from sharing. The clear overall message: the Simpson trial was doomed from day one.

A jury acquitted Simpson in October 1995 of the murders of his ex-wife, Nicole Brown, and her friend, Ronald Goldman. A subsequent civil trial the following year found him liable for these same deaths and awarded the victims' families a judgement in excess of $30 million.

Simpson retained custody of the two children he had with Nicole.

"I think the general public feels that they lost something," Vannatter said. "They watched the evidence.

They feel cheated. This was a sad commentary on our criminal justice system."

To Vannatter, the Simpson case represented a continual battle between Simpson's perceived innocence and the reality dictated by the evidence. Vannatter said the media and Simpson's attorneys deliberately moved the focus of the trial away from Simpson and onto alleged LAPD misconduct.

"The perception was that [Simpson attorney] Johnnie Cochran was looking for the truth," Vannatter said. "Do we find the truth by trying to charge up a minority jury?

Do we find the truth by putting a spin on evidence that has yet to be presented? I wonder if our forefathers could have foreseen in the Constitution what happened in this case."

Vannatter went on to detail evidence he said was not presented during Simpson's criminal trial, including a sales receipt that tended to prove Simpson owned the kind of gloves found bloodied at the murder scene. The detective also revealed information that Simpson stole his ex-wife's house keys just prior to the murder.

Vannatter said the IAPD had a witness who claimed to have seen Simpson throw a travel bag into a dumpster at Los Angeles International Airport the night of the murder. Many people speculated that this bag contained the murder weapon and Simpson's bloody clothes.

"I never had a case with more physical evidence in my career.

But what can you do when 10 percent of the public still believes that Elvis is alive?"

-Phillip Vannatter

After retiring, Vannatter split time between his Los Angeles home and a quiet farm 50 miles west of Cincinnati. Vannatter co-authored a book with LAPD colleague Tom Lange entitled, "Evidence Dismissed." He remained convinced that Simpson alone was responsible for the murders of Brown and Goldman. "[Lead prosecuting attorney] Marcia Clark proved this case beyond a reasonable doubt," Vannatter said.

Criminal Justice department chair Ed McGarrell thought Vannatter's speech brought perspective to the Simpson trial. McGarrell said the lecture "put these issues in a very real context. The students can benefit from the interplay between the theoretical and the philosophical."

Senior Mark Scudder felt Vannatter's presentation helped correct the one-sided media portrayal of the Simpson affair. "It was neat to see his point of view," Scudder said. "Before, he could never talk about why he did what he did."

Affects IU International Students agreed with Schoch and said there was another important reason for hosting events. "Awareness is the key for now," Jayakumar said. "Students, faculty and the IU community need to know that the crisis is having a serious effect on IU, and that there is a Fund set up to accept donations to help these students."'

Saturday, April 25, the ASU, Leo R. Dowling International Center and Bloomington Worldwide Friendship sponsored the Asia Crisis Benefit at the Creative Arts Auditorium. The event kicked off at 5:30 p.m. with classical music. The 8 p.m. set focused on jazz and other modem music, and featured David Baker and the Faculty Jazz Combo. Admission ranged from $5 to $15. All proceeds went to the Asian Student Aid Fund.

"An earthquake is something that grabs people's attention, but an economic crisis is boring," Schoch said. "The concert worked well to get people aware of how serious things have gotten."

ASU's donations to the crisis fund were helpful, but other benefactors also contributed. The East Asian Studies Department collected about $1,000 in private donations. One anonymous Bloomington resident gave a gift of $5,000 in the name of Professor Willis Porter and his wife.

At the end of the year, things had not improved much. Over $15,000 had been put aside to help students in the coming years, but still inure students expected to forced many students to leave the University.

In efforts to mitigate the effects of this crisis, the Asian put school on hold until things got straightened out.

Lee went on to describe a Nov. 21 telephone argument with Associate Athletics Director Steve Downing. She said she told him, "There are other students in the class who are posing as problems. I really don't have the patience to deal with these players. I know you said you've been talking to them, but they're still disrupting the class, and that's not good enough."

Bodnar said he attempted to address the problem from the very start.

"I've been talking with her about these issues since early October.

That first incident was brought to my attention almost immediately," he said. "Everybody wants to listen, everybody is concerned."

Bodnar said determining appropriate action proved difficult.

"There's not a textbook on this," he said. The History department issued a reaction to the IDS and The Herald-Times. A paid "Statement Against Intolerance" said in part, "The History Department denounces a series of acts of intimidation and verbal abuse rooted in attitudes of racial and gender intolerance that have been directed against one of our faculty members this semester. One of the University's fundamental commitments must be the preservation of the community as a safe and secure place for the free exchange of ideas. We pledge to do all that we can to fulfill that commitment by fighting such acts of intimidation and abuse."

Many students expressed their support for Lee and their intolerance

of harassment.

"I think it's ridiculous that someone would go that far just because they're not getting the grade they want. I admire her for going on the way she has with all the pressure from all these people," junior Sarah Long said.

But some students in Lee's own classroom did not notice the magnitude of the disturbances. "I know there were times where she had to stop, (but) I didn't notice anything myself," freshman Daphne Richards said.

Lee said she found the outpouring of student support encouraging.

"Some students have come up to me and talked about the challenges we have faced this semester," she said. "They have approached me in person and via e-mail. More than they probably believe, students can wield significant influence over their peers."

Although the University investigated all of Lee's allegations, it dismissed every charge. It remained to be seen whether the identities of the students could ever be obtained for publication. Lee expressed her discouragement at the outcome of the hearings. She finally chose to take an extended sabbatical in the spring semester. But she remained unwavering in her stand against racism and sexism.

"It was suggested that I tolerate them," Lee said. "Clearly from the very start there has been this 'boys will be boys' attitude. Let me hold them to a higher standard, and don't tell me to tolerate behavior that has no place in the classroom."in

adiologist Mary Hoesli helps senior Paul R Nutter prepare to go through the CATscan machine at Bloomington Hospital. The CATscan diagnosis would confirm Nutter's suspicion that he had colo-rectal cancer. He learned in January that he had the disease.

IU student Paul Nutter Battles Cancer

EMBRACING Life's Uncertainties PHOTOS BY JIM BOWLING STORY BY ALINE MENDELSOHN

n a chilly January day, senior Paul Nutter came home to find a message scrawled on a Post-It-Note: "Call Doctor Immediately."

He sat down for a few minutes, staring blankly at the phone. He saw no sense in delaying the inevitable.

"I just knew then," Nutter said.

"I've got cancer."

A call to the doctor confirmed his suspicion. He had a tumor in his rectum rapidly spreading to his lymph nodes.

continued

Right: Nutter awaits the diagnosis of his CATscan at the Bloomington Radiology Center. His father died of cancer at age 48. As a result, the news of Paul's cancer hit his mother especially hard.

Opposite, bottom: Nutter attempts to find the tumors on his CATscan at a friend's house in New Albany, Ind. Doctors treated Nutter with chemotherapy and radiation treatment.

He eventually had to endure a complex surgery to have the tumors removed.

Opposite, right: Although diagnosed with a potentially fatal illness, Nutter maintained a positive attitude about his situation. He continued to live as much of a normal life as possible. And he became a favorite among his fellow patients at the hospital.

Nutter never smoked. He exercised regularly. At 32, he had the aura of the all-American hero: blond, blueeyed, 6 feet tall. His teachers described him as the life of the class; his friends, the life of the party. He loved IC basketball, being with his friends and life. He served in the Air Force and returned to school as a nontraditional student majoring in Japanese. As his good friend Mark "Pudge" Becker put it, "He's living out a lot of guys' dreams."

How could he have cancer?

Though he had no control over the disease, from the beginning he knew he had a choice. He could victimize himself with a "why me?" syndrome, or he could accept his condition with a positive attitude. For Nutter, an optimist by nature, the decision was clear, "There are certain challenges you get thrown at you in life," he said. "How you deal with them is a testament to yourself, to your character."

144 Academics

ABSORBING THE SHOCK The day Nutter learned he had cancer proved to be the most trying and emotional. He had so much to deal with all at once. Only 24 credit hours shy of graduating, he had to drop all his classes. Chemotherapy and radiation treatments would become part of the daily routine. And he had to break the bad news to his family and friends.

"It was heart-warming," Becker said. "It's a very harsh part of reality. We're not all dealt a nice hand."

Most of all, he dreaded telling his mother.

The Nutters have endured cancer before. Nutter's father died of esophageal cancer at age 48, when Nutter was 14 years old. His grandmother died of colon cancer at 88.

Despite all of the unpleasant tasks at hand within days he bounced back to his normal self. He even had some perspective on the challenges that lay ahead.

"Crying isn't going to help me. Fm done with that," he said. "What's gonna happen is gonna happen. If things go well, I'll jump for joy. If they go bad, then hey man, that's how the cards were dealt. I've lived 32 years. I've made my mark. I've done everything I wanted to do."

ENDURING THE TREATMENT

When Nutter entered the Cancer Care Clinic for the first time, he received his share of looks. He stood out by far as the youngest patient undergoing treatment for colo-rectal cancer; most of the others could have been his parents or grandparents.

Even in this setting, Nutter quickly found his goodnatured role. Faces lit up in his presence. He joked with fellow patients and flirted mildly with the nurses — even as they injected chemotherapy treatment into his arm.

The chemotherapy served to kill the cancer cells, the radiation shrank the tumor. Nutter kept a full head of hair, though he prepared to lose it from the chemo.

"I was kind of disappointed," he admitted. "I was going to shave my head anyway."

Most days, Nutter said he felt fine. Combined, radiation and chemotherapy took less than 40 minutes.

Since his diagnosis early in the semester, he only took one day off from his job at Big Red Liquors, and he worked on the days he had treatments. Friends and family visited often to help boost morale. He said he experienced only two days of great discomfort, days that tested his attitude.

utter awaits surgery in the waiting room of Norton N Hospital in Louisville, Ky. The surgeons would attempt to remove the tumors from his body. The hospital became the second to treat Nutter.

Seeing other patients reminded him to count his blessings.

He observed two extremes. He saw individuals who had given up and just went through the motions of treatment. But he also met those who made sure they laughed and took their condition in stride.

Again, the choice rang clearly in his mind.

"There are people who know they're going to die. Fm lucky that's not me," Nutter said. "It could always be worse."

THE ROAD TO HEALING

April 8, following six weeks of intensive cancer treatments, Nutter endured colo-rectal surgery and a radical groin dissection to remove the tumor. His mother, three sisters and stepfather accompanied him to the hospital.

Nutter had never even broken a bone, let alone endured major surgery. Yet he didn't become scared or nervous. He

just wanted to get it over with so he could get on with his life.

And leave it to Paul Nutter to find the bright side in major surgery.

"I've been meaning to drop 20 pounds anyway," he said, patting his stomach. "This'll do it. When I'm all done, I'll be nice and svelte."

Shortly before 6 a.m., Nutter went under while his family had at least six hours to wait. At the end of the surgery, Dr. Louis Heiser came out of the operating room.

"He's doing very well, the best we could expect," Heiser told them. The surgery successfully removed the tumor, but they still needed to run tests on the lymph nodes.

It would take two or three days to determine an extended prognosis. His family did not like the sound of that It was a long time to wait, a long time to worry.

"We're all on pins and needles," his sister Ellen said.

Meanwhile, after the surgery, Nutter began to heal — in pain.

"It's a kind of pain that cannot even be described," Nutter said. Still, the next day, he walked five painful but symbolic steps to and from the door.

Within the promised two to three days, the doctors came with good news. The surgery "could not have gone any better," Heiser told him. The biopsy on the lymph nodes revealed only two malignant nodes. Nutter started healing, though he had to spend over a week in the hospital and several months resting at home. In the fall of 1998, he would undergo more chemotherapy and radiation to make sure all the cancer cells died, but Nutter didn't mind. "It'll he a breeze compared to this," he said from his hospital bed.

MOVING FORWARD, LOOKING BACK Nutter planned to graduate with a degree in Japanese as

soon as possible. He took second summer session courses and would become a full-time student again in the fall of 1998.

"It gives me another year to get tickets for IU basketball," he said.

Three months after the diagnosis, Nutter remained cancerfree. The surgery marked perhaps the greatest turning point in his battle with cancer. But the fight did not end there. He continued to go to hospital and still bore the scars of the surgery. And lie had to live with the uncertainties, the fact that the cancer may someday return.

"Now I think I can pretty much handle anything that comes my way," Nutter said. "But I've been very, very lucky. I have family and friends that kept beside me through it all. I think I've done a good job dealing with it. You never know how you're going to deal with something until you have to.

STARKER Music professor wins Grammy Award for his cello recordings

tudents outside the School of Music probably never realized it, but a star musician wandered in S their midst in 1998. He even won a Grammy Award. But he missed the ceremony on awards night so he could attend senior Joanna Felder's recital.

Janos Starker, world-renowned cellist and distinguished professor in the IU School of Music, became the hometown winner on Grammy night. He won the award for hest instrumental soloist performance (without orchestra) for his two-CD set, Bacb's Suites fi . Solo Cello Nos. 1-6, released on RCA Victor Red Seal records.

But Starker took it all in stride. After making over 100 cello recordings and winning dozens of awards, the Grammy must not have seemed like a huge deal.

Starker adorned his studio walls in the Music Annex with awards, honorary degrees and souvenirs from his extensive travels. Holes marked the tile floor where Starker and his students rested their cellos. Starker, who won his first recording award in France 50 years ago, explained that he brought some of his awards and collectibles to his studio when he started running out of room at his home.

They are nice things to have...If you live long enough and you respect what you are doing, then you get these things," Starker said about the many recognitions Ile received for his work.

1998 marked Starker's 40th year of teaching at IU and his 50th in the United States. Born in Hungary, he left at age seven to study cello in France. A year later, he began teaching cello to others. As a result of Starker's musical talent, he definitely did not have a traditional formal education.

"I led a fully professional life (as a teenager). It just did not quite fit in to a normal high school education," Starker explained, just before he pointed out his

Honorary High School Diploma from Cornell College.

"They wanted to give me a doctorate," Starker said with a smile. "So I said, 'How can I accept a doctorate if I have no diploma?' And so they came back and said, If we give you an honorary high school diploma, will you accept it?' 'In that case,' I said, 'Yes.Graduate student Paula Kosower, Starker's assistant, said she enjoyed studying cello with him for his dry sense of humor, among other things.

"Of course he's dedicated to performing, but he's also very dedicated to teaching. That's somewhat unusual," Kosower said. "It's a real privilege to be around him. I think a lot of people feel the same way that I do — even those that haven't been there as long."

One of Starker's former students, Emilio Colon, said Starker had a profound influence on his choice of occupation — Colon became an assistant professor of cello at IU. In fact, all three of Starker's 1998 colleagues studied cello at IU under his guidance.

"My thought is that perhaps he is the premier teacher/performer of the 20th century," Colon said.

"When we realize everything that he's done...it will be clear that there is no one else like him. His students do dominate the scene in teaching and performing.

They're all over the world."

Starker's dedication to his work shone through when he talked about the Bach suites he recorded and about the cello.

"Bach suites give us (cellists) an inexhaustible source of assumptions, questions and answers," he said. "These suites basically establish the instrument as a solo instrument...It can cry, it can laugh. it can dance. - in

STEER IU toward academic success

any dilemmas confronted Chancellor Herman B Wells in his roles as president and chancellor of M I I', often regarding which events to participate in and attend. The Chancellor still enjoyed attending banquets, concerts and virtually all campus events.

Wells looked forward to attending the opening night of the Spring Ballet but had a necessary decision to make beforehand. "I go to as many music events as I can," he said. "I have some tickets, but I haven't decided who is going with me tonight."

Wells held regular office hours in Owen Hall for visitors, which provided an opportunity for students, IU visitors, foreign dignitaries and anyone else to talk with him. "I'm here every afternoon," he said. "All they have to do is come."

1-11 1,RMAN B WILLS The 95-year-old Chancellor Wells moved around campus with the help of his staff, a wheelchair and a specially equipped van. Although the van was only a few years old, Wells traveled so much that it already needed replacing.

In the spring, Wells once again traveled to Little 500.

Wells said he attended all but one of the races while at IU. In that instance, he missed the race because he had to give a commencement speech at another campus. He also monitored the progress of the IU Auditorium renovation by visiting the building and receiving updates.

"It needed renovation," Wells said. "It was 50-odd years old. It was the first complete building during my presidency. Some were started when I came here, but this was the first one from start to finish."

Wells said he would still major in business if he enrolled at IU in the spring. "It is a very good business school," he said. However, one thing Wells liked that did not exist during his student days was the Arboretum, located across the street from the Kelley School of Business. "I like to go over there and sit and watch."

year, but one thing that does change is the students you get to know well.

"One thing I like about teaching is that students keep you young because they have a very youthful perspective. That's one of the privileges of being in higher education.

"In October, there was a huge dinner at the Wright dining hall that kicked off the Bloomington endowment campaign.

There were about 600 people there in black tie.

"It was a wonderful evening, as most fund-raising campaigns had been. It brought together trustees, faculty, deans and students for the evening. They showed videos, and people talked about Bloomington...it was not just the evening, but what the evening symbolized—how much affection alumni, faculty and staff have for this place."

lthough students contacted Indiana University President Myles Brand via e-mail and during his A office hours, students also talked with him while walking around the track at the Student Recreational Sports Center or meeting him at other spots on campus.

"I live in the middle of campus in Bryan House, and hence am in some ways very close to the students. I continue to very much enjoy my interactions with students. For example, the switch for President for a Day, my interactions with student leadership groups such as student government and the time I spend in the student rec center.

"One of the things I enjoy the most is as I walk on campus or as I peek my head out the door, is that students are always saying hello. And by name— 'Hello, Myles, how are you?' Its the 'Hoosier Hospitality' and friendliness that makes campus life extraordinarily enjoyable.

MYLKS BRAND "I feel it's a great privilege to be able to serve Indiana University as its president. Indiana University is one of the great universities of the world. And as an academic and someone who is interested in administration, there is no higher privilege than to be part of Indiana University. On the personal side, it's a dream come true to be able to play a leadership role and to help shape one of the finest institutions of higher learning in the world. I believe I have much to contribute as well as much to learn from this institution and its faculty and students, and I look forward to every day, to contribute and learn.

"Every year is unique of course, but this year higher education in America is in a major transitionary period.We see that in terms of our students' interests and their goals.

Indiana University is playing a leadership role nationally in these transitions. It continues to balance ground-breaking research, excellent teaching and superb professional service. It is accountable to the people of this state and the country, and it is emerging as a focal model for the fine universities. And so this year is different, in so far as the transitions have become clearer and the leadership role of Indiana University more prominent.

Of course, the prominence of Indiana University translates into a higher value for each graduate's degree.

The better Indiana University does over the long term, the more valuable that degree will be."

fter working at Yale University, the University of Oregon and the University of California-Berkeley, A Curtis Simic decided to return to his alma mater to serve as the president of the IU Foundation.

"I graduated from here and had been here seven years and then left for 17, and when I returned after all those years, I found the connections were all loyal to IU and were willing to help. One reason we've been successful is that we've been able to go back to the loyal people.

CURT SIMIC "I think this is the job I've always wanted. At the point in my life where I had already been there and done that, having been a vice president and a vice chancellor at two universities, I wanted to come home.

This is home and where I feel I can do the most good."

Simic said his major project for the year involved raising financial support during the endowment campaign for the Bloomington campus. Some of these funds were designated for newly endowed chairs, library acquisition, and scholarships for undergraduate and graduate students.

In addition, Simic said some funds raised will go toward IU assets. "This year with a good market, we have over $700 million in assets and our goal is to get to a billion in the next couple of years. The campaign will help us do that.Photo by Jim Bowling

U Dean of Students Richard McKaig enjoyed learning from the international programs held on campus, which displayed the food and culture of many countries.

"The reason my job is challenging is because of the diversity of issues and students I deal with on a regular basis. It's hard to tell what will happen tomorrow. The most enjoyable part of my job is the wide variety of student activities. I think of the student-sponsored events that I get invited to.

"Meeting deputies is a fine and unique nature of the job because of the kinds of activities I participate in.

owned one of the most highly sought-after autographs on campus, but not because he was a nationally known athlete or coach. IU Treasurer Steven Miller's signature appeared on IU paychecks and bursar refunds. Miller graduated from IU in 1970 and returned as an employee in 1991.

"When I was a student, I worked as a waiter at The Gables, across the street from Bryan Hall. I saw the frumpy administrators, but I never thought I'd be one of them.Miller said quite a few things have changed about IU, including students' interests and his own perceptions of Bryan Hall.

"What I've found is that there are a lot of nice people who like to laugh here, but students don't see that side of the administration," Miller said.

"Students had a lot more on their minds than

studying then — they were involved in a lot of political issues. Now, they're more serious about preparing themselves for a career than being in the political arena. I'm not sure if that's good or bad.

"It's a great job. My whole career has been in investment and finance, and I get into everything here.

We're now in the process of getting money to renovate Willkie Quadrangle, and money for other projects — the Auditorium, a new building at IU East, and the buildings here at the crescent: Owen, Maxwell and Kirkwood Halls. They are such beautiful old buildings and our desire is to keep the character of the old campus but renovate the insides.

"My job has changed in response to the changes of the financial markets. The things we invest in are more complicated and more sophisticated. We have to be careful because there are so many different ways to invest." El

PERFORMS "Matrimony and Mischief," a Series Ranging From Classics to Modern Works embers of the Indiana University community had the opportunity to witness some "Matrimony and Mischief," in the 1997-98 IU Opera Theater season.

Opera Theater provided audience members with the opportunity to see several different types of opera. And for students, the theater became a place to hone both their acting and musical skills.

Opera Theater treated audience members to standard favorites such as Tchaikovsky's Eugene Onegrin, Mozart's The Marriage of Figaro and Verdi's Falstaff. Newer productions

included Donizetti's Don Pasquale, Gilbert and Sullivan's H.M.S. Pinafore and Poulenc's Dialogues of the Carmelites.

Allen White, the head of technical production and lighting designer for the School of Music, said a committee chaired by the school's dean and composed of conductors, stage directors and selected voice faculty chose the repertoire of the season as well as cast the singers for the season's roles.

White said about 200 singers auditioned the first weekend of school for parts. Students received parts based on their preparation of a selection under five minutes in length. continued

Below: Graduate student Deborah Poyner helps create the makeup for senior Raymond Fellman. Fellman played the title role in Verdi's Falstaff The makeup crew stuffed his costume to make him larger and also made him appear bald.

The con anittee also had several options available regarding the season's selection of operas. Following the School of Music's formula for coordinating a season of operas, the program scheduled both traditional and contemporary performances throughout the year. They chose a Mozart opera each season as well as an Italian piece by Verdi or Puccini, a modern work, a French and German production, and a special interest piece to highlight a composer's centennial year.

"We always attempt to have a balance so the season is presentationally pleasing," White said. "We also have to tailor our repertoire to our singer population, because we may have new voices coming or voices leaving. We have to survey what's here and in the market, because students come and go. We're affected by our resources, because we can't do two chorus pieces back to back. It's also determined by the newly built and old productions. We don't do them back to hack, and we try to space them out."

The Opera Theater also put a twist on the traditional performance of the Marriage of Figaro. White said the group produced a concept production, which meant it used minimal scenery. This style was often performed in Europe. "The

164 Academics

audience is used to seeing lots of scenic elements, and it took some getting used to," White said. "It requires much more believable acting, so singers have to spend more time working on that."

White said the opera learned from its diverse productions during the season. "It was a different production withFigaro this year," White said. "I'm not sure it was entirely successful, but it helps to grow. Carmelites was interesting from a visual point of view, and the music ofFalstaff was enjoyable. It's a wonderful opera."

Doctoral student Jonathan Hodel performed in Falstaff as Fenton and in Eugene Onegin as Lensky. "Fenton is such a nice youth, and he is so in love with Nanetta," Hodel said.

"Together, they get to sing the most beautiful music in the opera. Lensky, on the other hand, is also a joy to sing, but in a much different way. He is very youthful, though not quite as young as Fenton. He is deeply in love with Olga.

Unfortunately, his life is much more tragic. Because of a single event which occurs at Tatyana's birthday party, he ends up challenging Onegin to a duel, one which I feel he knows he will never survive. This one event completely drains all of the joi de vivre from Lensky. Throughout the course of the

opera, as with all of the characters, he gets to sing some of the most beautiful music in all of opera."

Hodel said the two roles stretched his abilities as a singer and as an actor, and he had fun with the parts. "Lensky pushed me in a direction I had not yet done, that of a tragic figure who is killed. It was exciting, though I must say I found myself emotionally drained because of the devotion I gave to the character. Lensky's highs are really high, and his lows are really, really low, and all of this happens in about one and a half to two hours."

Junior Andrew Broadaway said he also learned from performing in all six operas this year as a member of the Opera Chorus. Broadaway said the chorus served to provide comic relief or support to the main characters.

"Performing in the operas is a very rewarding experience, albeit a very time-consuming one," Broadaway said. "Normally operas here are prepared on a very tight schedule, and rehearsal time is extensive. But performing in front of thousands of people on a regular basis is very exciting and a thrill that is irreplaceable. The experience of singing in an opera here at IU with musicians that are of an extremely high quality and professionalism is unique and

extremely educational."

Masters student Bridget Wintermann said her role as Sister St. Charles in Carmelites ranked as the most emotionally intense role she has sung. "When you die every night and hear the guillotine blade go down, it's really emotionally hard to do it, but at the same time it's really rewarding because there is a real substance to it." Wintermann said. "I also have a new appreciation for nuns because they wear the wimples and the veils every day, and they're very heavy.

"A lot of the girls in the cast had nightmares, and when we first heard the guillotine blade in rehearsal, some of us involuntarily screamed," Wintermann said.

"Almost all of us girls cried at the dying scene when we're marching up to the scaffold, and that went through until closing night."

Senior Wendy Beddoe enjoyed attending most of the operas as a season ticket holder. Beddoe said IU Opera tickets cost quite a hit less than what audience members would pay at the Metropolitan Opera or other opera companies. "It's great for students to have productions of professional quality on campus, where normally they would have to pay at least $30 for tickets." ri

Dean of Afro-American Affairs

RESIGNS due to administrative conflicts

D can of Afro-American Affairs Lawrence Hanks surprised the IU campus March 10, when he sent a letter to IU Vice President and Bloomington Chancellor Kenneth Gros Louis announcing his resignation as of July 1. Hanks filled the post since July 1, 1993, and worked as a tenured professor of political science as well.

The resignation came after an advisory committee reviewed Hanks' status as advocacy dean and prepared to make its findings public after more than two months of deliberation. The committee transmitted its recommendations to Gros Louis, who would make the final decision on renewal of Hanks' status.

Hanks cited many reasons for his departure in an email message sent to several campus organizations. He said a lack of sufficient authority and problems dealing with campus politics contributed to the decision.

"Chief among (my reasons for leaving) are the challenges associated with advocating without the power and authority to directly impact policy decisions and the likelihood that the advocacy offices, as we currently know them, will change in the very near future," Hanks said.

Hanks' resignation came after IU placed the advocacy dean system under review. IU President Myles Brand appointed Charlie Nelms, former chancellor of the University of Michigan-Flint, as special assistant in charge of diversity and undergraduate retention after many student groups cried out for reform the previous year.

He planned to visit the campus in April 1998 in order to study the role of the advocacy deans and offer suggestions for improvement.

Senior Keisha Alexander, president of the Black Student Union, said a lack of concrete explanations of the advocacy system proved one of its biggest problems during Hanks' tenure.

"We need a clear and concise definition (of the advocacy dean's job) so students know what to expect," Alexander said. "I think (the advocacy deans) should be out protesting, and others think it

is a 9 to 5 position."

Gros Louis said IU reviewed the advocacy dean structure for possible reform.

"Some feel that the advocacy structure is outdated and that some new organization may be needed what that is, I am not sure," Gros Louis said. "Faculty and student groups, plus external consultants reviewed the advocacy organizations as well as other programs and services for underrepresented groups during the year."

Gros Louis also said the level of success of the advocacy dean system depended on those filling the position. He said many great programs that impact students have come from advocacy deans.

"Some (advocacy deans) have created wonderful programs that still exist; others worked more quietly and impacted students and others one-on-one," Gros Louis said. "Larry Hanks was an articulate voice for the African-American community and has started several projects that will continue long after he has left the deanship."

Hanks said he enjoyed his term as advocacy dean despite the many obstacles it presented and anticipates a return to full-time teaching and research.

"My tenure as dean of African-American Affairs has been a unique and tremendous opportunity to serve as well as an invaluable growth experience personally, spiritually and professionally," Hanks said. "I am especially grateful for the positive assertive support of my wife and children during this period and am looking forward to my return to teaching and scholarship."

Alexander said she thought Hanks had a successful career in the position, performing advocacy functions to the best of his ability. "(Hanks) was successful in cultural programming and consultation from a leadership standpoint,' Alexander said. "You can't expect the dean and two others to take care of an entire community."

Hanks' resignation left only one advocacy dean at IU, Dean of Latino Affairs Alberto Torchinsky.

loomington's own Lotus World Music and Arts Festival remained a top-notch project. In its B fourth year, a bigger and more diverse festival than ever entertained 10,000 spectators the weekend of Sept. 26-28. The dedication of its leaders made Lotus a nationally recognized festival.

Lee Williams, manager of Second Story Night Club, fathered the idea of Lotus Festival. He and other creators named the festival for Bloomington folk icon, Lotus Dicksy.

After Dicksy's retirement in the early 1980s, the self-taught fiddler, singer and guitar player became a part of a family of folk musicians at IU. "The festival is a lot in spirit of Lotus," Monroe County Commissioner, Iris Kiesling, said. "He was a homegrown person that made a name for himself."

The event gave students and community members an opportunity to experience the full spectrum of the musical world while in Bloomington.

"As you move from venue to venue it's like moving into different worlds," Williams said.

Festival highlights included a free outdoor concert Saturday afternoon with Roberta Mirabal, Laura Love and Robert Bradley's Blackwater Surprise performing in Dunn Meadow. The sunny weather and nationallyacclaimed bands drew hundreds of festival-goers throughout the day. Mirabal and Love entertained the crowds with their folk and funk tunes, but it was Robert Bradley's blues that got the crowd grooving.

The Detroit band played Bloomington often and experienced recent success with airplay on MTV.

Robert Bradley's Blackwater Surprise performed an equally strong performance at Second Story later that evening, along with singer Kate Campbell and the band Tarig Abubakar and the Afro Nubians.

"I was most impressed by (Robert Bradley's) stage presence," said senior Stephen Jugg, who attended the Second Story show. "Their CD is great," he said. "But they are even more powerful live."

Guitarist Fareed Haaque put on a stunning Friday evening set at the Wild Beet.

Culture entertained audiences Saturday with uproarious and energetic reggae at the Convention Center. And Saturday evening, Yhungchen Lhamo, captivated audiences with a vocal performance in the Waldron Art Center's upstairs auditorium.

At the Indiana Theatre, Barachois, a four-piece band from Prince Edward Island, Canada, entertained an audience with an energetic set. All band members wore tap shoes and accompanied their fiddle, guitar and organ with elaborate tap-percussion arrangements.

They also infused humor into the set, dressing up as Vikings, Elvis-style American rockers and Dutch cloggers to illustrate the wide influence of their "Accadian" music.

At the show's climax, the band brought four audience members on stage and decorated their heads with cardboard hats and a cymbal to create the first co-op drum set."

The festival proved to be enjoyable for both the audience it entertained and for those involved with it.

Williams enlisted the help of more than 225 people to keep Lotus running smoothly. He praised the volunteers for contributing to the event's success. The Waldron's upstairs auditorium hosted a special party to thank volunteers Sunday evening.

"Lotus is a real plus for the community," Kiesling said.

After the cast took its final how and applause ceased, a feeling of contentment spread through the audience. Passing classic cars parked in the circle drive in front of the auditorium left many with memories of the "good old days."

A C HORUS L INE

An arch boldly displaying "Rydell High School Class of 1959" vaguely resembled the head of a Wurlitzer jukebox. Vince Fontaine, played by Todd Aikens, rolled onto the stage, his voice booming in the wings of the auditorium. And with that voice, Fontaine transported the audience to the days of drive-ins, soda fountains and rock 'n' roll.

Fontaine mesmerized the audience with a preshow dance contest and his 1960s savoir-faire. When the sound of a shrill school bell rang out through the scene it was "back to school again" for the cast of "Grease." The auditorium's stage became the hallowed halls of Rydell High Sept. 23 and 24.

The Bloomington performance of "Grease" offered only a slightly different version of the Broadway musical, which debuted in 1972. However it varied greatly from the popular image of the movie "Grease," starring John Travolta as Danny Zuko. Kent Sheridan starred in Travolta's former role.

"I don't want to deviate too far from the image (of Travolta)," Sheridan said at a pre-show interview in Woodburn Hall. "Of course I'm not John Travolta, but there are certain things the audience expects and you don't want to disappoint them.But some students did not respond favorably to the stage version's deviations from the popular movie. "I wanted it to be like the movie and it wasn't. The songs and the scenes were different," senior Jill Joros said.

The audience enjoyed some of the surprises they saw. Teen Angel, played by Kevin D. Witcher, transformed from an ordinary character to a cross between Little Richard and a Baptist preacher. As Teen Angel melodically sang, "Beauty School Dropout" to Frenchy, played by Rachel Smargiassi, audience members shrieked with delight. "I just couldn't get over the impression he (Teen Angel) left," freshman Molly Logan said. "I came home remembering his

As the curtain rose, characters scattered across the stage in front of a mirrored wall singing, "I Hope I Get It." They awaited instructions from Zack, the show's director, who soon took his seat in the audience. The Pulitzer Prize-winning musical, looked like any other audition for a Broadway show.

"A Chorus Line" invited the audience to take a backstage look at a Broadway audition Sept. 29 and 30.

It retold the difficulties these dancers and actors faced during the auditioning process.

Characters ranged from Cassie, an older experienced dancer who could not find work, to Mike, a gay male who learned to dance in his "sis's tap shoes." The audience learned about the characters' personal and emotional struggles and the importance for each of them to dance in the chorus line. "(A Chorus Line" is) a glimpse of what actors, dancers, musicians go through to be in this industry, including subjects (such as) coming out, coming of age, ugly duckling to beautiful swan...a piece of you somewhere in one of the 28 characters," said Denny Daniello, manager of the JP Touring Company.

A smart-ass attitude, sarcasm and her ability to sing and dance with pizazz made Sheila, played by Kristen Gerding, stand out from the rest of the characters.

"The sarcasm and wit of her character added humor to the show," freshman Michelle Schwarz said.

Not much differed from the show's debut on Broadway in 1975. Director Bayrok Lee played the part of Connie in the original cast. She brought the magic of her Broadway performance, including similar choreography and costumes that replicated the originals.

The golden top hats featured in "One" were originals.

Overall, students, faculty and members of the Bloomington community enjoyed the show. "We were very pleased with the energizing and invigorating show," senior Amy Silver said. continued

"Every song is a story in and of itself, and as the song evolves, the story evolves."said Catherine Major, publicity director of "Smokey Joe's Cafe."

Major referred to all the song performances as "revue-sicals." If the lack of dialogue did not distinguish "Smokey Joe's Cafe" from other musicals then the size of its cast (nine performers) and the presence of the band on stage did.

The band sat behind a curtain that raised and lowered throughout the show, while images of the band could still he seen through the curtain.

"At first I did not like the show," junior Carlos Cook said. "Rut the more I listened, I enjoyed the music and got into the story. I like music and that's what it was."

"Smokey Joe's Cafe — The Songs of Jerry Leiber and Mike Stoller" came to Bloomington Oct. 14 and 15 and presented countless hits from the '50s and '60s. The Top 40 songwriting team authored a string of popular hits including "On Broadway," "Stand By Me," "Yakety, Yak" and "Jailhouse Rock."

A variety of artists ranging from Elvis to Ben E. King recorded their songs which ran the gamut from emotional ballads to upbeat rock 'n' roll. "It was a nice change to hear songs that everyone knew from the '50s and '60s," senior Jason Adams said.

In 1995 the music became a show and opened on Broadway to apathetic reviews.

But the show gained momentum and went on to be nominated for seven Tony Awards in 1995.

Students enjoyed the light-hearted nature of the show. "It was a light, relaxed atmosphere, a lounge type of setting," said junior Halle Simpson.

Four-time Tony winner, Jerry Zaks, directed the fun loving attitude of the show. He also directed the Broadway revival of "Guys and Dolls" and "A Funny Thing Happened on the Way to the Forum."

Sounds of garbage can lids, kitchen sinks and Zippo lighters filled the IU Auditorium as the national tour of "STOMP" made its stop on campus Oct. 18 and 19. A blend of rhythm, movement and physical comedy comprised the cast's three shows, impressing audiences unfamiliar with the troupe's unique format.

"The movements and the ability to create such rhythm without musical instruments was incredible," said freshman Lisa Roth.

The production's intense rhythms centered around unconventional instruments. The 11 performers used basic household items to create intricate music. Bins, sand, boxes of matches and brooms represented only a small number of instruments utilized by the cast. Odds and ends on stage became a means of distinctive music for "STOMP." With such an abundance of music and an absence of dialogue, "STOMP" made its performance distinctly different from conventional shows.

"Even though there were no words, the people on stage had individual personalities. They were all characters," freshman Jonathan Hull said.

"STOMP's" creativity filled the auditorium with many memorable moments. Two cast members on ropes swung hack and forth and produced loud music, while the flicking of Zippo lighters offered quieter moments.

"STOMP" originated in Brighton, England. Luke Cresswell and Steve McNicholas formed the company when they combined with the street band, Pookisnackenberger, and the theater group, Cliff Hanger. After many street performances throughout the 1980s, the show made its debut on Broadway in 1994.

For the second year in a row audiences at IU received "STOMP" well. "It's a must-see. It's so different than any other Broadway show being performed," freshman Mary Beth Anderson said. F

tailgating 101 by kathryn knapp

hen fall semester began, students returned to Bloomington to start another year. And with the beginning of the year came the beginni of the football season. Although the football team had a losing season again, faithful fans flocked to Memorial Stadium weekend after weekend to tailgate.

In the fall of 1997 Ili students started a new tradition — Tailgating 101. Senior Ryan Coleman, an avid tailgater, took it upon himself to teach IL students how to tailgate a little better.

"For eight years of my life, I've actually been going to the games as a fan," Coleman said. "And I was always disappointed at the way people tailgated at II:.

I didn't think they had any clue or didn't really get into the games much. So I talked to kids on the floor and I said let's show these people how to tailgate."

Saturday, Nov. 22 at 5 a.m, students gathered in the parking lot at Memorial Stadium. The grills fired up, and students anticipated the game of the year — the Oaken Bucket game. Every year fans flocked to either Bloomington or West Lafayette to watch the battle between Ili and Purdue. However, this specific year, the festivities provided more entertainment for all those involved. Coleman and a group of students from Read Center worked with sophomore Jason Potter and another 10-15 people from Forest Quad to form "TearDown."

This tailgate offered pizza, hamburgers and live music from WIUS. It drew approximately 1,000 students. In the weeks before the game, Coleman and others spread the word of the tailgate. They passed out flyers, sold red and white Puck Furdue shirts and Coleman wrote about the event in his weekly column at the Indiana Daily Student.

Forty-eight hours before the game, the organization process became crazy. "It operated on pure adrenaline," Potter said.

About two hours before the game, the team drove by the stadium in buses. Everyone at the tailgate began cheering and showed their support. The team watched in amazement. "They drove by and it was crazy. There were all these people on the hill and everyone started going crazy. We call it the drive-by," Coleman said. continued

An hour before game time head coach Cam Cameron drove out to the tailgate in a golf cart. He took the microphone, stood up on a speaker and addressed the students. He thanked them for their support and invited them to follow him to the game.

While standing with his friends, 1997 graduate Lou Huffman listened to fans cheer in disbelief. Everyone said, "Look, it's Cam Cameron." Finally he turned around to see Cameron addressing the tailgating party.

"That was the bomb," Huffman said. "I have never seen a coach do that. It shows me that the coach really cares about the team and fan support. I was very impressed and excited."

The students followed Cam to the stadium. On the way he turned to tell them, "You have no idea how much this means to the team, how much it means to me."

For Potter hearing the students yelling and feeling the energy made it all worthwhile. "I was in disbelief up until then, he said. "Hut that's the moment that I knew we had pulled it off."

A successful tailgate wrapped up the Tailgate 101 course for the year. However, an organization entitled STARS, Student TearDown Association Recruiting Spirit, was formed and promised to fill Memorial Stadium with fans.

Although the tailgate held Nov. 22 marked a new beginning, some students had been doing it for years.

Senior Karen Pikosz said her family began tailgating eight years ago when her brother started college, and she did not see them stopping when she graduated.

Her parents did not come for every game, but they came every Parents Weekend. And they brought quite a spread with them.

They bring champagne, beer, wine coolers, shrimp, fruit, cheese, crackers and whatever else they can think of," Pikosz said. "You name it, they've got it, but the champagne has to be the best."

A true tailgating bash happens regardless of the weather. Die-hard fans always found a way to celebrate. "It didn't matter what the weather was. We we're going to tailgate if it killed us," Pikosz said.

Tailgaters included students, parents, Bloomington residents and IU alumni. Huffman drove down every weekend that he could in his blue and orange van ready to party.

"I'm a sports fan. Tailgating brings me back to my college days," Huffman said. "I've heard people say that tailgating at other schools is better. But honestly, I don't think it can get much better than here at IU." It did not matter if the team won or lost, it was being there that mattered. And at IU, the Memorial Stadium parking lot remained one of the only places people over 21 could drink alcohol on campus without facing consequences. Call it a privilege or just a perk, but students, alumni and others enjoyed just the same.

Senior Fred Warner, Prepares for a final dress rehearsal for the T300 Production of, "Of Mice and Men." Performances were held Oct. I I and 13-18 in the University Theatre. Warner played the part of Candy, a crippled farmhand in the famous novel

by John Steinbeck.

FRED WARNER:

a competitive act in a world of characters

whatever it takes story by molly okeon, photos by kevin stuart

f such a thing as an overachiever existed in the field of acting, 23-year-old Fred Warner would have I personified it while attending Indiana University.

When it came to performing, either in comedic pieces or dramatic plays, Warner showed dedication, enthusiasm and a serious attitude toward the business.

"There's nothing else I will do; I don't care how many tables I have to wait," Warner said, laughing.

Fortunately, Warner's abundance of stage parts kept him working at his vocation of choice.

In his senior year alone he went from playing the difficult role of Candy, a poor, pitiful old farmhand in the University Theatre production of John Steinbeck's "Of Mice and Men," to playing a variety of characters in a series of one-act comedies.

Though less stretched than his previous part, Warner felt comfortable portraying the characters in David Ives' "All in the Timing," put on by T300, a Musical Theatre Workshop. Warner portrayed an enraged monkey attempting to type Shakespeare's "Hamlet," and a minimalist composer poking fun at himself through embellished sounds and actions.

Warner also performed regularly in Iii's infamous improvisational comedy troupe, "Full Frontal Comedy."

In his spare time, Warner participated in What If Productions, a group which performed AIDS educational improvisation for high-risk groups around Bloomington.

But it was his portrayal of Candy in "Of Mice and Men," where Warner realized he had met his most difficult role. By nature, Warner thought himself strong-willed and confident. But as Candy, he played a physically and emotionally weak character.

Director Bruce Burgun revamped the script of "Of Mice and Men" in order to recover a version closer to Steinbeck's novel After working almost 30 hours a week on this production Warner felt justified at curtain call "It's all worth it at curtain call. I can't describe it for somebody who hasn't felt it — it makes all the trials and tribulations of the rehearsal process worth it," Warner said. "But I'm never 100 percent pleased with

my performances. I could have done better."

Despite self-criticism, \X, arner felt the part required a great deal of confidence.

"I think to be an actor, you have to have some kind of arrogance," Warner said. "Otherwise, why were you doing it if you didn't think you were good enough?"

Warner nurtured this sense of confidence from a strong and mutually-supportive IU Theatre Department.

"I'd like to think we're the most welcoming department on campus," he said. "We are sincerely happy for each other when we get parts although we may have wanted them for ourselves."

He said that the competition between students only made it better.

Warner said while in a show, the cast became a family.

He found it difficult to close a show because he knew he would no longer see cast members with whom he shared a wide range of emotions.

While still working on the final performances for "Of Mice and Men," Warner auditioned for "All in the Timing," directed

by Professor Murray McGibbon. He said he found that play less challenging because he felt more comfortable doing comedy.

In preparation for the play, McGibbon had the cast do character sketches. Some acts also called for additional research. For "Words, Words, Words," Warner and two other players watched Jane Goodall films to study the chimpanzee style and looked at books of facial expressions.

In this skit, Warner appeared on stage wearing white overalls with his name, "Swift," painted on them and a bright

blue t-shirt. Barefoot, he took to such antics as holding a piece of paper with his toes as he read, interjecting "whoowhoo-whoo" between his words. Warner even dropped the line "Three monkeys typing into infinity will sooner or later produce Hamlet," the basis for the one-act. continued

These three monkeys bounded around the stage while Warner ranted angrily about the evil researchers conducting the experiment. He played the sarcastic one, doubting the monkeys' purposes there and inventing silly quirks like eating paper and swinging on a bar over his typewriter.

In another one-act skit, the innovative "Philip Glass Buys a Loaf of Bread," Warner, dressed clean cut in a grey turtleneck and grey wool pants, saw an old girlfriend as he bought bread at the store. The play ridiculed Philip Glass, a minimalist composer who took small segments of songs and embellished them. The entire play utilized stage movement and rhythmic words spit out in various sequences. The work created more of a word picture than any cohesive sentences. Warner's emotions went from aggravation to silliness to anger and finally to recognition. The scene finally halted its odd rhythm and movement and went back to normal. Warner glanced at the woman at the door and said, "Yes, I loved her once." It resembled watching a nightmare sequence, he said.

McGibbon said Warner brought wonderful energy and enthusiasm to the play.

"He's a very hard worker, very committed," McGibbon said. "If you are determined and committed, then you will achieve success in the field. Of course, you need primary talent, and Fred has that and the drive to work."

And, all in all, Warner believed that performing wasn't just about the individual.

"You're not out there doing your performance," Warner said. "You have to make the other people look good. If they look good, then you'll look great, too. -

big name acts perform at the auditorium

Coming Back For More ome old favorites returned to the IU Auditorium in the fall before it closed for an 18-month S renovation. Union Board sponsored concerts from the legendary Bob Dylan, rising star Fiona Apple and Indigo Girls.

BOB DYLAN

by Jeff fleischer

For the third straight year, Bob Dylan brought his tour and his massive collection of material to the IU Auditorium. But this time around, the legendary songwriter delivered something new to Bloomington fans. Dylan toured in support of his latest album.Time Out o f Mind. and displayed a revived spirit of enjoyment in his music.

Dressed in a black satin jacket with a red bow tie, Dylan opened with "Maggie's Farm" and "I Want You," before introducing "Cold Irons Bound" from the new album. While the crowd cheered throughout the entire show, they erupted in applause when Dylan delivered the opening line to his new hit — "I'm beginning to hear voices, and there's no one around."

Senior Marc McKee appreciated hearing the new material. "I'd say that this show was on par with the other one I saw (at IU in 1995)," McKee said. "His voice was legible to my ear, and he played good songs, especially from his new album."

Dylan's voice remained clear and articulate as he shifted over to a brief acoustic set. It began with a cover of the old folk song "Cocaine" followed by a rendition of "Tangled Up in Blue" and highlighted by the mandolin accompaniment of Bucky Baxter.

Despite an ability to draw material from over 40 studio releases and countless other songs, Dylan chose to cover the Grateful Dead's "Friend of the Devil." But he did close off the acoustic portion with one of his own classics, "Mr. Tambourine Man," a concert staple since the 1960s.

Back on electric, Dylan's closing numbers aroused audience members to get back up on their feet. "I Can't Wait," "Silvio" and "Highway 61 Revisited" each went over well with the fans. After the last note of "Highway 61" Dylan told them "Thank You. We've been here before. I hope we can come back."

He and the band returned to the stage for an encore after fans cheered and waved lighters. The

204 Entertainment

encore began with the legendary "Like a Rolling Stone,' Dylan's first electric, and most popular. Things slowed down for a version of "Forever Young" before the band stepped back for a brief conference onstage.

Out of their huddle, Dylan & Co. broke out the slow guitar beeps that signaled "Lovesick" the first song on Time Out of Mind. The crowd roar swelled and sustained itself once the houselights came up and "Rainy Day Women 12 & 35" closed the concert.

This show marked the first time senior Dolores Canavan saw Dylan in concert. "Dylan didn't exactly put on a spectacle-type show, but he played the music well and with an earnestness that no one in their right mind could complain about," Canavan said. "He's not Hendrix or Zappa, that's for sure, but he knows the value of his music is in the songs themselves, so it doesn't matter so much how he presents them. It's all about the music."

And the music made Dylan matter. "It would seem that Dylan's importance to the industry is wrapped up in the realization that there is a market for poetry in the popular vernacular," Mckee said. "Beyond that, the relatively steady success of a literate, questioning rock musician goes a certain distance toward redeeming the 'music industry' entire. It doesn't redeem it, but it tries.

Sometimes, that's all you can ask."

FIONA APPLE

She got up from the bench at the piano, walked to the microphone and opened her beautiful mouth, letting out some not-so-beautiful words.

"I gotta tell you something because, if not, I'll end up fucking up the songs," she said. In her infamous way she let out a long, rambling story about a radio station that wanted her to debate veganism and eating turkeys on Thanksgiving, or the station would not play her music.

"It's all personal vendettas; they don't care about you and what you want to hear," she said. It seemed the audience did not really care to hear what she had to say.

The audience reacted to her long-winded speech with hisses and calls of, "Just sing something!" Finally, the band kicked up, and she began the song that made her famous: "Sleep to Dream." continued

Fiona Apple, a star after her first and only album,

Tidal, used her anger to entertain an audience at the 1U Auditorium Nov. 19.

Her previous anger gave way to a sexy swaying of her hips. The audience screamed with excitement and got to its feet for the first time during the show. This version of "Sleep to Dream" growled inure angrily and preachy than the album's version, and her sexy, belly-dancing movements segued into angered stomping and thrashing.

206 Entertainment

"Sleep to Dream was really good. She was really animated during that song and there was a lot of emotion," junior Joe Kerschbaum said.

In the dark, the audience could see her waif-like silhouette as she made her appearance on stage. They watched as her body made its way to the grand piano and sat itself gracefully on the bench. Hunched over the keys like an old woman, the 20-year-old singer/songwriter banged out "The Child is Gone."

As her throaty voice belted the opening lines, "Darling, give me your absence tonight/Take the shade from the canvas and leave me the light," the audience howled with appreciation. Typical to her style, Apple's slim hips gyrated forward and back as she played.

Dressed in a baby-short, see-through sweater with a black bra underneath and low-cut blue jeans that could have been crafted to her thin legs, she wowed the audience as she thrashed her long, silky brown hair over her face and away again while playing.

The harsh quality of her voice sounded just as rich as the songs produced on her album. Sticking with the piano in "Sullen Girl," Apple displayed her ability to play Tori Amos-like keyboard arrangements with a classic twist.

The rest of the concert continued with this momentum. Off and on, Apple took to the piano and showed off her incredible skills. Other times, she rose and playfully seduced the audience with her lean frame, singing "The First Taste" as though she were speaking to the men in the audience. And they ate it up. She sang: "Do not struggle in your web because I aim to get caught/but, daddy long legs, I feel that I'm finally growing weary of waiting to be consumed by you."

She gave two cover performances, Jimmy Cliff's "Sitting in Limbo" and Jimi Hendrix's "Angel," which were both well-received by the audience. The crowd enjoyed the 75-minute performance, except for when Apple opened her mouth to rant about the evils of the "system" that had ironically produced this rising star.

INDIGO GIRLS

December 9 marked two memorable occasions at the IU Auditorium: a concert and a closing. Indigo Girls stopped in Bloomington while touring across the country in support of their most recent album,Shaming of the Sun. The performance also marked the last concert the auditorium hosted before closing for an 18month renovation.

The legendary duo, Amy Ray and Emily Saliers, opened the show with "Land of Canaan," a familiar favorite from their early, self-titled album. The audience reacted with an intense excitement, as they began singing along with recognizable songs.

As childhood friends, Ray and Saliers grew up and left home together for college, creating music along the way. After several independent albums, the duo made a name for themselves with their album Indigo Girls in

1989, partially because of a guest solo by R.E.M. leadsinger Michael Stipe on "Kid Fears."

Moving from the favorites of the album Indigo Girls, the band played a hit from Shaming of the Sun, an album that won them much positive acclaim along with a growing number of fans. Excitement grew when Ray and Saliers played their new song, "Shame on You." "They played a lot of old songs. I am a religious fan of theirs from way back when. It was really good to hearth e old songs along with the new," senior Carrie Stiers said.

During the concert, a modest Saliers commented, "we're just a bar hand, if y'all didn't know it. Something just happened along the way."

Indigo Girls not only entranced audiences with their self-written lyrics but also their acoustic talent. Their concert mimicked the performance of a string ensemble, utilizing a variety of guitars and banjoes throughout the night.

With their established talent after the release of Indigo Girls, Ray and Saliers began to expand their sound beyond the signature acoustic guitar-filled sound. They also released a two-disc live album in 1995, providing fans with their personal and intimate concert style.

"Least Complicated" and "Power of Two," songs from the 1994 album, Swamp Ophelia, received much radio play and encouraged even the most novice fan to sing along.

The concert took on a slower pace with songs by both Ray and Saliers. Saliers emotionally sang "Romeo and Juliet."

"To my surprise they played my favorite song, 'Romeo and Juliet.' I am so excited when I see my favorite songs live," freshman Jill Kline said.

"Galileo" from Rites of Passage closed the concert.

The audience fully participated in whatthey thought to be the hand's last number. After much applause, however, Ray and Saliers returned for an encore, performing "Chicken Man" and their signature song, "Closer to Fine."

From start to finish, the Indigo Girls lived up to their reputation, providing an incredible concert experience.

After seeing the Indigo Girls in concert, freshman Kristin Young reminisced about past shows comparing them to the hand's performance at IU. "Their performance at IU was so personal. We all got really involved and were speechless for days from singing along," she said. "The Indigo Girls are one of the most talented acoustic groups around.- in

Landing huddled together in a circle facing one another, 10 men awaited their cue, a faint note from the S harmonica. Then they started to sing. The group feels connected, we are working as one unit...When we can all see each other that is when the chemistry happens," said junior Dan Ponce, director of Straight no Chaser.

The a capella group communicated with each other visually as they practiced the songs that made them a hit at IU. Straight No Chaser, named for the jazz musician, Phelonius Monk, became a part of IU in the fall of 1996. Ponce, a freshman at the time, looked for a group to join. When he did not find one, he created his own. Ponce, and then sophomore Kevin Carroll, both members of the Singing Hoosiers, hand picked the other nine members of the group from the campus choral ensemble, "I made an assessment of whoI wanted in the group based on their voice and their personality. Personality is as much a part of our group as the soundwe make," he said.

Students enjoyed both. At the concert the group showed both its talent and his humor. "Performances reflected the members' individual personalities and how well they worked together," senior Carly Izenson said.

The group performed over 200 concerts on campus, debuting at the 1996 Dance Marathon. After the first event, Straight No Chaser received invitations to sing at sorority parents weekends and banquets and to perform the National Anthem at Little 500. "Every gig usually leads to one or two more," junior member Charlie Mechling said.

Not only did the men perform on campus, but they spent the summer of '97 touring in Chicago. They performed the "Star Spangled Banner" at a White Sox game and sang at a benefit at Lincoln Park Zoo. The group's success in a big city followed them hack to Bloomington in the fall. It sold out its first solo concert Nov. 3 at Alumni Hall. "The energy of the audience kept us going," Ponce said. It performed a second concert at Alumni Hall Jan. 29 to promote its first CD, a self-titled album recorded at Echo Park Studio in Bloomington.

The men recorded 19 tracks, including two originals written

by Ponce. CDs went on sale the night of the concert and after could he purchased at TIS College Bookstore or Borders.

"The songs they recorded in the studio are great, a lot better than the live songs. On the live songs all you can hear is the audience screaming," junior Karee Pass said.

"IU students are not used to our sound," Ponce explained.

"Other schools have many groups like ours, but we're the only one here. (We're) a new way of enjoying music in a relaxed atmosphere," he said.

The group competed at a regional competition in Illinois the last weekend in Fehniary. They won and advanced to the sectionals in March. Ponce won an award for best arrangement for his song "Dry Campus,- a parody about drinking on the IU campus.

Collins also took home an individual award for best vocalist.

Ponce's original intentions, to form a group that would stay at IU even after the present members graduated, changed with the success of the group. Jerome Collins and Kevin Carroll stayed for a fifth year to continue singing with the group.

"Our future plans depend on if we can keep making money.

Mechling said.

With only one music major in the group, the members of Straight No Chaser were as diverse as the songs they sang.

Graduate student. Patrick Hache, the lone music major in the group, studied vocal performance. Other members studied everything from chemistry to journalism.

"We're a bunch of guys who do this because we love singing and getting together to have fun," Ponce said.

fever that blazed during the adolescent rebellion of the '50s returned to the pop culture in the '90s. The swing scene, a A combination of rock-a-billy music, swing dancing and enough gall to go out and try it, began to grow ever more popular locally and across the nation. It was difficult to pinpoint the exact source of rock-a-billy music, a style popularized in America in the 1950s by artists such as Carl Perkins and Jerry Lee Lewis.

"No one knows when it all began because back then there were guys pickin' guitars out in their garages and recording off coffee tabes," said Ryan Nichols, bassist for the locally popular rock-a-billy hand, the Swing Rays. "That Memphis sound, Elvis and all of that is rockabilly because it's a hunch of southern boy artists trying to play rock n' roll with an influx of southern rock," added vocalist Eric Reeves.

continued

If you can walk, you can swing."

Although the origins of rock-a-billy music remained uncertain, there was no question that the Swing Rays helped usher into Bloomington this fast growing scene. Every Monday night they performed at Bluebird Nightclub's "Cigartini Night - entertaining a cigar-smoking, martini-drinking, swing-dancing crowd. "Monday night is a really good atmosphere because the attitude is that anyone can come and learn and enjoy the experience," Nichols said.

"The biggest disappointment is that Cigartini is always at a bar.

There are a lot of people under 21 who would love to learn to dance but can't go," said Joshua Furr, a senior studying theater and drama.

Other underage venues hosted swing music and dance parties on occasion, but none as regularly as the Bluebird. The Fountain Room in Indianapolis was also available for underage "swingkids" to dance and immerse themselves in the ambience of the '50s. An antique jukebox, cigarette machines and furniture matching the decade completed the decor of this nightclub/restaurant/thrift shop.

But the fact that those of legal drinking age had the most access to the swing scene did not stop the younger enthusiasts from having some part in it. In the fall the students of Harmony School held a swing benefit concert to raise money for a school trip to Washington, D.C. The Swing Rays played and the event was a huge success according to Harmony School teacher Helena Miller. Bloomington Parks and Recreation also hosted an Ice Cream Social open to all ages in the spring featuring a two-set. three-hour performance by the Swing Rays.

The swing scene was a multi-faceted subculture and its central emphasis differed depending on who you ask. "For me the scene is about the music," Nichols said. "There are a lot of great songs being covered today that, because of a lack of mass media in the '50s, no one ever really got to hear. Someone's got to play those songs, so it's us."

Senior voice performance major Patricia Labus was more interested in dancing. "It's really a stress-relieving exercise, and a great way to meet people. Of course, in my group, we're so into the dancing that we get all dressed up for the occasion."

Fun agreed that swing brought people together. "I love the social scene — it creates an environment in which people are more comfortable going up and asking someone to dance. And the dressing up is hilarious! The only time I ever wear suspenders is when I'm swing dancing."

On the other hand, some enthusiasts believed this genre could not be fully understood without exploring all of these components and a few more. Seniors Matt Saltanovitz and Jodi Krumel started a group called the Billy Club to expose interested persons to the lifestyle known as swing or rockabilly. The club met on Thursday nights in Ballantine Hall. It extended membership to IU students and faculty, and anyone with an interest in learning about the movement. Some members enjoyed scrounging up relics from the era like 45mm records, collectables, clothes and even cars.

Right: Swing Rays frontman Eric Reeves belts out a tune during its second set on a Monday night at the Bluebird. The band also traveled to Indianapolis to play at The Patio on Wednesday nights. The Swing Rays often played at Second Story Nightclub and other social events in Bloomington.

"This scene is about more than just the music, the dance and the style of clothes," Saltanovitz said. "It's about an attitude and a way of life."

Many of the swing followers in Bloomington were first attracted to the high-energy couple-oriented style of dance that accompanied rockabilly music, but finding the right instructor became irritating.

Nichols expressed frustration when finding someone to instruct him on the type of swing he wanted to learn. "My wife and I finally found someone to teach us how to dance at a swing festival in Denver. We started teaching people what we knew, and now there is a whole slew of people stalling to dance a particular style more fit to our music."

Labus and Furr found themselves in the same predicament after taking a ballroom dance course at IU. In a semester long course many different ballroom dances were taught including the Cha Cha, the Foxtrot, the Waltz and the triple-step Swing. The triple-step was geared to slower-paced Big Band music, while the rockabilly style music played by bands like the Swing Rays was better suited to a double-step. "Most of the swing in town

is pretty fast paced. its sort of a hybrid between East Coast swing and lindey hop," Fun said. Ironically, the place best suited for instructing new dancers ended up being the very place they began. "I just watched people dance and wanted to learn how, and I did. I've been dancing every Monday night since January," Labus said.

"It's such an easy thing to learn, although it looks so impressive that it is often intimidating. Everyone I've taught has started out thinking that they couldn't do it," Furr said.

Labus agreed, commenting that people were often amazed when she told them she had only been swing dancing for the last six months. One of her favorite aspects of the scene was interacting with newcomers and helping them learn the moves. "I love to teach others because I want them to have the same experience I did. When I first started I didn't know anything!"

The open attitude of the regular swingers and the ease with which most people picked up the dance style should be encouraging to those who have been reluctant to jump in and try it Out. After all, as Furr explained, "If you can walk, you can swing."

erotic arts balls come to bloomington

displays of sexuality story by kathryn knapp

ressed in erotic clothing ranging from liquid latex to black skin-tight outfits to tuxedos D showing lace, leather and bare skin, IU students and Bloomington residents expressed their sexual freedom. Mars Nightclub hosted Eroticon II in the fall and the Erotic Arts Ball in the spring.

Attending Masquerade, an Atlanta club, in 1994 inspired graduate student, Kelly McBride to start a tradition in Bloomington. As an undergraduate McBride researched sexual education in an attempt to expand her personal knowledge of sexuality.

Before graduating in the spring of 1997, McBride completed 60 hours of human sexuality classes from 11 departments, including literature, nursing, psychology and sociology. Her study led her to believe that people should not he put clown for their sexual orientations and philosophies.

McBride decided to create her own event at which people could express their sexual freedom in a safe environment. McBride and the Lascivious Exhibitions (LE) organization created Eroticon.

"I wanted a night to go out and have a good time that was similar to those I've experienced in big cities," McBride said.

Since McBride and Lascivious Exhibitions took over the Erotic Arts Ball they held two Eroticons, three Erotic Arts Balls and an Erotica Charity Ball held at the Vogue in Indianapolis. In addition to these shows, LE helped other organizations put on 10 to 15 shows, and it held workshops around the Bloomington area to educate people on safe sex.

In spring alone, LE hosted eight workshops.

McBride directed the events but she did not act alone.

A Board of Directors made up of seven people took part in planning events, and depending on the show, a crew of 60 to 100 people took part in the preparations.

Most work was volunteer, and the people who were

paid received less than minimum wage.

Both events, Eroticon II, held Oct. 24 and the Erotic Arts Ball, held Feb. 13, were open to all who were interested. Those dressed in erotic attire paid a $10 entrance fee while those in street clothes paid $15.

The events were designed to encourage sexuality and safe sex as well as provide entertainment.

Eroticon II featured 11 stage shows performed by LE and other organizations. "Heaven and Hell" highlighted the evening's performances.

"Heaven" began with a woman dressed in a white robe sitting on a throne in Heaven. She experienced the ultimate pleasure she desired by all those around her. The peace was disturbed by a displeased soul who continued to cause problems. The angels soon had enough, and the soul was damned to "Hell." He was tortured with hot candle wax, clothespins and other items by unforgiving demons. All the skits varied in content from spitting flames to balancing swords and candles.

As people walked into Mars for the Erotic Arts Ball, they were greeted with a warm welcome. "Welcome to the Erotic Arts Ball. Check your coat and your morals at the door." The Erotic Arts Ball featured another array of events. Sultry, the opening band, dressed in erotic attire and played jazz while shadow dancers moved in cages at the sides of the stage. Full Frontal Comedy also performed. They included more sex-related improv than usual into their show.

Members borrowed toys from the audience and then joked about them on stage.

Another top act featured Samantha Stevens, Miss Gay IU, lip-synching to a song by The Eurythmics. The acts were both entertaining and controversial.

"It's definitely interesting to see artistic displays, and how some people choose to live their lives," Kyle Young, a Mars' bartender, said. continued

Erotic contests highlighted both events — Mr., Miss and team Eroticon competitions. The contestants had 30 seconds each to get on stage and prove they were erotic. At the Erotic Arts Ball senior Duncan Robinson took to the stage dressed as Zorro for the Mr. Eroticon contest. Dressed in a cape, pants, boots and a foil mask, Robinson walked out onto stage with his sword and danced for the crowd. He began stripping as shouts of "Zorro" echoed throughout Mars. Robinson placed second.

"I've never had a room full of women screaming out my name before," Robinson said "It was definitely a good time and worth the money."

Zorro was not the only celebrity to attend the events, as attendees also dressed as Darth Vader, and Batman and Robin.

The second contest of the evening — the body motif contest — challenged participants to flaunt the best body modifications (brands, piercing, corset training, scarification and tattoos) they had.

Vendors offered items for attendees to buy, while staff members wandered throughout the nightclub to give everyone a taste of what they had to offer. Body painting, liquid latex and honey dust (a type of edible body flavoring) were among the items offered.

The Edible Beauty topped off the event wandering around in pasties, a g-string and covered with fruit, icing and other delicious items for attendees to consume.

Attendance at each event increased steadily. Mars only profited from drink sales, while LE received the remainder of the profits. The money allowed LE to become a legally recognized nonprofit organization. LE donated over $4,000 of its profit to charity. McBride said she was thankful to the community for its support.

With more people becoming comfortable with their sexuality and money being raised for LE and other organizations, Eroticon and the Erotic Arts Ball proved successful. Students and Bloomington residents who experienced the events encouraged others to attend.

"It sounds intimidating or scary to people, but it isn't," sophomore Jessica McClellan said. "It's really accepting and it's a safe environment. Nobody goes with the intent to make anyone else uncomfortable.

Everyone is there with an open mind and doesn't want anything weird to happen. It's basically a really crowded club with a lot of people wearing weird clothes. It's just like Halloween.-

about 200

students from the midwest at the University of Illinois Nov. 8. amtinued

Left: Niehaus dances the hustle with Henry Neeman during the NightClub section of the competition. Competitions are generally divided into three sections: Rhythm/Latin, Smooth/Standard and NightClub. While ballroom dancing competitions have been held at University of Illinois since the late '80s; it wasn't until Niehaus started the club that IU students started going as a team.

Below: Niehaus gives a 'Foxy Lady' signal reminding fellow clubmates on the floor to smile. "Judges notice (mistakes) when you scowl, but they don't notice when you laugh," Niehaus said. Beside her, also cheering, are sophomore Katherine Boyles and senior Josh Cole. Approximately 10 members of the IU Ballroom Dance Competition Club attended the competition at University of Illinois.

As many dancers sat patiently, their fellow competitors danced in the narrow hallways and practiced moves in the lobby. As they watched friends dance, the music often compelled students to dance in their seats.

Approximately 20 couples danced at a time as judges watched and scored. Dances ranged from the swing and tango, to the hustle and waltz. In the end, six to eight couples per dance were chosen to dance in the final heat.

Many participants said that the key to competing was to have fun.

"Wanita has a way of smiling whenever she makes a mistake," said senior Josh Cole, a member of the club.

"Judges notice (mistakes) when you scowl, but they don't notice when you laugh," Niehaus said as she watched her friends compete.

Niehaus won many awards. At Ohio University, she placed fourth in the waltz and second in the tango. At the University of Notre Dame in 1997, she placed first in the cha cha and the rhumba.

Other than winning, Niehaus found better reasons for attending these dance competitions.

While many dancers attended competitions with partners secured, Niehaus preferred to go without one.

"It's where the excitement comes in...picking up strange men and forming chemistry in three minutes."

In October 1997 Niehaus danced her last competition at Illinois before she graduated.

"It's kind of sad for me," Niehaus said. "My dream when I started was to form a group and have us represented. This is the most people we've ever had at this competition. It's the most organized we've ever been. It's kind of like having my dream fulfilled."

Niehaus formed the club in the spring of 1995 after taking a beginning ballroom dance class. Her first competition hooked her on dancing.

Niehaus recruited friends, and the club grew. Eight 1U students competed in the next competition. And in just two and a half years, the club grew to more than 30 members.

The group met twice a week either in the School of Health Physical Education and Recreation or the Indiana Memorial Union, and members often practiced informally at home.

Niehaus' favorite practicing partner was her roommate, sophomore Katherine Boyles. Impromptu practices often occurred in their living room.

"She's here and she's the absolute most convenient person to dance with," said Niehaus. "Besides, she knows both parts." continued

Below: Niehaus waits to hear if she advanced to the next heat. The dancers were broken up according to skill level and advanced through various heats to the final heat during which the winners were decided.

First- through third-place ribbons were awarded and fourth-place couples were given a calendar at the University of Illinois competition.

For smooth dances women usually wore long flowing dresses, and for latin dances they wore either a short skirt or a long tight skirt with a slit all the way up to the left hip.

However, at collegiate competitions judging was not based on costumes.

Opposite page: Niehaus practices the swing with Tim Sampson who she'd met at a previous competition. While many dancers arrived with a regular partner Niehaus preferred meeting her partners at the competitions. She believed that good dancing was not just about being able to dance well with one partner.

Ballroom Dance Competition 227

Within the club several people found romance even though it may have been unexpected.

Junior Erin Salona and senior Simon Lee started dating six months ago. "It wasn't an 'I saw him from across the room and our eyes met' situation," said Salona. Lee agreed. "I didn't start ballroom dancing for those reasons, but it's hard to avoid (romance)," he said. "Dancing is very intimate, and if you dance with someone long enough ..." he added jokingly.

During the past several years ballroom dancing gained popularity. Many colleges started new ballroom clubs, and ballroom dancing became an increasingly popular subject on the big screen as evidenced by "Strictly Ballroom" and "Shall We Dance."

At IU, the Ballroom Dance Competition Club disbanded due to University rules regarding intercollegiate competition. But the remaining club members intended to stay active. Many club members took on leadership positions with the club, which prior to the 1997-98 academic year did not participate in competitions.

Mock was elected the Vice-President of Competition, senior Matt Muterspaugh the team captain, and Boyles the Social Chair.

"We hope to keep the competitive spirit of Ballroom Dancing alive at IU," said Boyles. "It is through competition that it will grow as a sport and art form."

Many students learned ballroom dancing for a number of reasons. Some were convinced to learn by their significant others, and some were fulfilling a childhood dream.

Boyles, who danced ballet and modern since childhood started ballroom dancing as a freshman at 1U. "There's -a hit of a childhood fantasy to imagine yourself in a big fancy ballroom gown waltzing," she said. in

Nick's English Hut: home to decades of memories

historically fun story by anne meads and Jamie kisr ,Th r, photos b y iensen ,,friAtpr

Liara Marynowski, Wage Achenbach and Krista Gibson share a laugh and a drink like thousands of other IU students at the traditional Nick's English Hut. Just a short walk down Kirkwood Avenue, Nick's housed a wealth of IU memories and traditions.

230 Entertainment

stroll down Kirkwood Avenue, just west of the IU campus, gave students and visitors a taste of A Bloomington. They found places to eat, shop, buy IU goods, and a variety of pubs to get a drink. Mid-way down the block, a store front stuck out a little bit further than the rest. With the look and feel of an old British Pub, Nick's English Hut, 423 E. Kirkwood Ave., provided IU students and Bloomington residents one of the best places in town to eat, drink and drink some more.

Nick's opened its doors in 1927 as a small sandwich shop and grew into a bar seating more than 500 people. For half a decade Nick's served as an archive of IU's history. Pictures of Little 500, sports teams, movie stars, license plates, fraternity favors and other memorabilia covered the walls.

Despite all of these treasures, the item most commonly found hanging from the ceiling and in the center of every table was the Nick's bucket. These metal buckets, and the drinking game that accompanied them, Sink the Bismark, proved the real essence of Nick's.

Patrons played Sink the Bismark by filling a bucket with beer and floating a small glass inside. Each player took a turn pouring beer from their glass into the floating glass (the bismark). The person who sank the bismark had to drink it.

"I loved it the first time I ever played it. I just think it is a really comfortable thing to do, because no one is left out," senior Lisa Fry said.

Sink the Bismark had a long standing tradition at IU dating back to the early 1970s. "The bucket brigade (Sink the Bismark) at that time, was very prestigious and the only way to get a bucket was to own a bucket," said Nick's general manager, Rex Barnes.

Historically, family members passed down buckets from one generation to the next. Owning a bucket was an honor.

In fact, students without a bucket not only were excluded from the game, but were considered a lower class.

Eventually the game became less discriminatory, and anyone of the legal drinking age could play the game either at Nick's or at home. Nick's sold buckets for $8 and they could either be left at Nick's hanging from the ceiling with the others or taken home. continued

Nick's: Historically fun 233

"It is not as much fun to play at other people's houses. It is better at Nick's, it belongs there," Fry said.

Nick's not only provided the best environment for playing Sink the Bismark, but it also gave students a unique bar to bring out-of-town guests, including parents.

"You can go there with parents, friends, family. You can sit and chill downstairs or enjoy the party room or pool room upstairs," senior Lee Schwartz said.

And even for those students who did not enjoy what Schwartz referred to as the "classiest" drinking game, Nick's was still a popular place to go.

"I go there so much that people know me there. I get taken care of there. It's very friendly," Benjy Levine said.

In addition to the sadness of graduating from IU, seniors were also hurt when they found out they couldn't get a free drink at Nick's. For years, rumors spread that patrons who brought a rejection letter would he consoled by Nick's bartenders with a free drink. Upon questioning the rumor, it was confirmed, "That is exactly what it is, a rumor!"

"I'm bummed that it's not true, but it is still a good story to pass on," senior Allyson Weitzman said. EI

ONE FLAWLESS SEASON

By Brian Boyle

erfection could only p describe the Hoosiers 1997 season.

The program celebrated its 25th anniversary with an undefeated and untied regular season. The Hoosiers' perfect 18-0 regular season beat the previous mark for the best start in school history, 16-0, set by the 1978 IU squad. And the Hoosiers became the unanimous No. 1 in midSeptember, never to slip. continued Senior midfielder Chris Klein bounds over an opponent of the Indiana University Alumni team during the Hoosiers' second annual game against past IU players toward the end of the season. The Hoosiers finished the regular season undefeated.

Men's Soccer 245

IU capped the first perfect season in program history with the Big Ten regular season title and sixth Big Ten Championship. The Hoosiers won five tournament titles, including the adidas-Foot Locker Classic held in Bloomington's Bill Armstrong Stadium.

Coach Jerry Yeagley faced two unknowns heading into the season. He dealt with the injury status of sophomore forward Dema Kovalenko, still recovering from the displaced tendon that sidelined him during the latter half of 1996.

Second, Yeagley had to replace goalkeeper Scott Coufal. who left for Major League Soccer after a four-year stint.

Redshirt freshmen T.J. Hannig and Joe Zarr entered 1997 competing for the starting position.

"This year we had very high expectations based on the number of returning players," Yeagley said. "There were two questions as we left in the spring. One was Dema's recovery from surgery, but he was hack to form. Still the looming question was the goalkeeping."

Kovalenko, who scored 10 goals the previous season despite playing in half the games, recovered to play in the season opener against University of Notre Dame in South Bend - a 4-0 Hoosier victory. Yeagley chose Zarr to start the Notre Dame contest, and Zarr responded with three saves and his first career shutout.

The Notre Dame contest marked the first time the Hoosiers played at full strength. IU played the preseason without three starters, senior co-captains Chris Klein and Caleb Porter and junior midfielder Lazo Alavanja, who spent the preseason playing in the World University Games in Sicily.

But all three players appeared in top form. Both Porter and Alavanja scored the first two Hoosier goals, and Klein contributed 68 minutes in the wide midfield.

The Hoosiers' home season began with the 15th annual adidas-Foot Locker Classic, where IU challenged Rutgers University and Clemson University, two strong squads.

Rutgers took the contest to overtime before Kovalenko scored the game-winner. IU came back from three one-goal deficits to beat the Scarlet Knights.

IU won the 15th annual adiclas-Foot Locker Classic with a 2-0 shutout of Clemson. Freshman forward Matt Fundenberger scored his first career goal against Clemson.

Yeagley gave T.J. Hannig his first career start in goal after Zarr allowed three goals against Rutgers. Hannig made five saves for his first career victory and shutout.

The Hoosiers won their second tournament with victories against North Carolina State University and top-ranked Duke University in the Duke Classic. Yeagley's squad opened the tournament with a 5-1 defeat of N.C. State. Porter scored the game-winner and Kovalenko added a pair of goals.

contest, but the Blue Devils tied the match at the 62:05 mark. Fundenherger's third career goal broke the tie and won the title with less than 15 minutes remaining.

The Hoosiers captured their third tournament championship at Indianapolis' Nike-Snickers Soccerfest. IU shutout Bowling Green State University 1-0 and trounced University of Rhode Island 6-1 in the second ever meeting between the two squads. The following week, the Hoosiers embarrassed long-time rival University of Kentucky 9-0 in front of more than 1,500 Armstrong Stadium fans. The Kentucky victory began a streak of four consecutive shutouts.

IU opened Big Ten Conference play in Bloomington against Michigan Sate, 1996's runner-up to the Hoosiers. Both Klein and Kovalenko scored, and the Hoosiers outshot Michigan State 23-2. IU ran its conference record to 2-0 with a victory against Penn State.

"We had a good defensive effort then," Yeagley said. "But that was not out best offensive effort that day. We had to do better on that end of the field if we wanted to continue to keep winning."

The Hoosiers' four-game shutout streak ended after a 4-0 road defeat of Miami University of Ohio. Kovalenko scored his 13th goal of the season on what turned out to be the game-winner. continued in the

As the midseason point passed, Yeagley's squad struggled to convert scoring opportunities into goals. The Hoosiers received their first scare at the hands of intrastate rival Butler University. The Bulldogs scored on two of their first three shots and took an early lead. Butler led 2-1 at half-time after Klein put the Hoosiers on the scoreboard. But IU exploded for five goals in the final 45 minutes, with Korol contributing two goals, and escaped with a 6-2 victory.

"It was a good wake up call," Yeagley said. "They played a clean, physical match and any time you can get a wake up call without a loss, you're lucky."

IU's scoring "funk" carried over to its next match, an in-state battle with University of Evansville. The Hoosiers fell behind early but recovered, clinching a 2-1 overtime victory.

After an injury-free season, IU suffered its first loss as senior captain, Porter, left the Evansville contest with a knee injury.

Porter spent the remainder of the regular season recovering from the ailment. but returned for the postseason.

248 Sports

IL prepared for two road Big Ten matches against Wisconsin and Northwestern — without Porter, its co-captain and field general. But the Hoosiers overcame the loss of Porter and returned to Bloomington with two conference wins. In Wisconsin, the Badgers jumped out to an early lead but were beaten by the eventual conference champions 4-1.

The opposite occurred in the Hoosiers' 4-0 defeat of Northwestern; the team scored early and never looked back.

"We had to come out and play our game," Korol said.

"And we did just that over the weekend."

The biggest game of the regular season loomed as the Hoosiers and Ohio State battled for the regular season conference title. IU overcame a hot Ohio State goal-tender to capture the title and run its record to 16-0, tying the 1978 team for best start in school history. Both Klein and Korol scored the Hoosiers' goals in the 2-0 victory.

20-0 California Classic. The tournament featured a well-hyped match between the nation's top two squads, IU and Stanford University. Billed as the explosive offense versus the stifling defense, the match failed to live up to expectations. The Hoosiers defeated No. 2 Stanford 2-1 and added a 3-1 tournament-clinching defeat of University of California at Berkeley.

The California Classic marked the Hoosiers' fourth title of 1997.

IU entered the Big Ten Tournament, held at Armstrong Stadium, as the top seed. The Hoosiers had a first-round bye and the first perfect record in school history. Prior to the Hoosiers' second round match with Penn State, Alavanja received the Big Ten Player of the Year Award, and Yeagley took home Coach of the Year honors.

The Hoosiers easily handled the Nittany Lions, advancing to the finals with a 4-0 victory. Player of the Year, Alavanja scored once and added two assists to lead IU toward a final's date with Ohio State.

"With a one-goal lead and then going against the wind in the second half, anything can happen," Yeagley said. "But this team seems able to reach down and come up with whatever it needs to."

Yeagley's squad clinched a sixth Big Ten Championship after freshman back Nick Garcia scored the game's lone goal.

Garcia led a stifling defensive attack, allowing only four shots on the game (six for the tournament).

Yeagley praised the defense after the tournament title win.

"Ohio State came out with a plan and they executed it, and it was a ball game," Yeagley said. "But today was a day that our defense rose to the occasion."

The Hoosiers found perfection in the regular season and conference play. Garcia came very close to summarizing the season in a single sentence.

"It felt great," Garcia said. "I think being a freshman and not having lost a game is a pretty good accomplishment."in

Hoosiers one goal away from keeping the season alive

JUST one more SHOT

By Kathryn Knapp fter an incredible undefeated season and breaking the record for the most wins without a loss or tie in ANCAA history (19-0 set by Creighton University in 1-seeded IU prepared for the first round of the 1993), NCAA Tournament.

Butler University traveled to Bloomington in search of a victory. Just two years prior, Butler erased IU's chances of advancing in the tournament. Many feared it would happen again. However, after a 6-2 defeat of Butler earlier in the season, IU had other plans.

IU quickly took control of the game when junior Lazo Alavanja scored early in the first half. The Hoosiers applied offensive pressure but failed to score again. The Bulldogs came back in the second half, giving IU quite a scare. With less than nine minutes remaining, Butler tied the game at 1-1.

The battle continued until triple sudden-death overtime when the Hoosiers finally woke up. Cramps and fatigue slowed the Hoosiers down, but the team knew what needed to be done. Freshman Nick Garcia scored the winning goal, sending the Hoosiers to round two action.

"All of us were sluggish and coming up with cramps," Garcia said. "But we worked all week on fitness. Mental toughness is the key to our game."

"Believe me what they've done is harder than winning any national championship, but yet expectations are so high that anything less than that would be considered not good enough this year at this point," Head Coach Jerry Yeagley said. "No matter what happens, I'd love to win (the championship) and we're capable of doing that. I'd hate to have anything erase or diminish the wonderful season that it has been to this point.

And yet there's nothing I'd like more to have a 25-0 record in our 25th year."

Bowling Green State University became the Hoosiers next 30. IU dominated the victim in second round action field throughout the game. At the 1:58 mark sophomore Dema Kovalenko scored a goal beginning a Hoosier shutout.

Strong offensive and defensive pressure held the Falcons to seven shots. With a final score of 4-0, IU prepared for round three. Kovalenko's two goals gave him 20 for the season, making him the first Hoosier to score 20 goals in the season since 1989. continued

Leaving sunny Florida, the University of South Florida arrived in Bloomington to play in snow and 30degree weather. The scoring began at 31:53 with Aleksey Korol. The goal marked the beginning of a 6-0 victory. Senior Chris Klein added two goals, ending his career as a Hoosier with 19 goals. As the clock ran down, the celebration began. IU had advanced to the Final Four.

But first, both Klein and senior Caleb Porter walked off the field at Armstrong Stadium for the last time. "I didn't want to leave the field knowing it was going to be my last time," Porter said. "To end here with a win is something Ill never forget."

The men packed their bags and headed to the Final Four in Richmond, Va. They stepped off the plane with their games faces on, ready to win the title. The matchup consisted of IU and UCLA. In 1994 IU defeated the Bruins in the semi-final round of the tournament, only to lose in the finals. Once again, flashbacks made many wonder what history held for the Hoosiers.

With a record of 21-2, UCLA came to Richmond tested and prepared. The Hoosiers' perfect record only seemed to fill the team with more hunger for a championship title. On a cloudy 48-degree day, both teams warmed-up and awaited the start. Though dominating the field once again, the Hoosiers ran out of luck. On 25 shots, IU failed to score; the UCLA goalie had 11 saves compared to four by IU. But offensive pressure was not enough.

In triple sudden death overtime UCLA freshman McKinley Tennyson scored a goal ending the game and the Hoosiers' undefeated season. Originally from Indianapolis, Tennyson experienced a sweet victory. "IU is a great program," Tennyson said. "But I chose UCLA and I'm happy with my choice."

Although the Hoosiers fell short of their goal, posting a 25-0 record in their 25th year and winning their fourth NCAA Championship — the team truly ruled its opponents all season. IU finished with 83 goals and 393 shots compared to its opponents who had 14 goals and 148 shots. As for goalkeeping, IU goalies completed 48 saves compared to 138 by their opponents.

What remained of the 1997 season? It was summarized into one word — domination.

The statistics spoke for themselves. 15

fter a disappointing loss to UCLA in the semifinals of the NCAA Men's Soccer Championships, A Indiana University's head coach Jerry Yeagley and three players filed into the press tent to answer questions. All four men sat with blank expressions on their faces and tears in their eyes. A member of the press asked Coach Yeagley why he thought the team lost.

Yeagley said he did not want to make any excuses.

"We've all seen soccer games, the best in the world, where the goal just dried up on that day and everything hits the post or goes to the keeper," Yeagley said. "I don't think our players panicked; I don't think they lost composure; and yet I don't feel like they made all their chances. III let the players answer that question. What do you guys think?"

Senior co-captain Chris Klein said they just had an off day.

Questions soon focused on the seniors and their last game.

Senior Caleb Porter spoke for the first time and described what the loss meant to him, "I am very disappointed that I didn't win a championship here at Indiana, but..." Porter paused. Coach Yeagley patted him on his back and said, "That's good."

As the questions came to an end, Yeagley left the press with a final thought on the record-breaking undefeated 1997 team. "It was a special team, it was a special year," Yeagley said. "They'll go down in the record hooks, but they'll go down in my book as a very special team and one of the greatest that I've had at IU." In his 35th year at IU, Coach Yeagley considered the soccer team a part of his family. When he arrived in Bloomington, he took a teaching position in the School of Health Physical Education and Recreation and also the job of sponsoring the men's soccer club. He turned a "social" club into a soccer team and within 10 years it gained varsity status. But the road to gaining varsity status was a long and bumpy one.

Being supervisor of the soccer club, or coach as Yeagley preferred, meant putting in extra time and work. The team had to do everything itself, including lining the field and riding with Coach Yeagley and his wife to the games. "I got to appreciate some of the things that other coaches perhaps have not had to struggle through. And I think it has helped me in the long run."

Members of the athletic department encouraged Yeagley in the beginning to push toward varsity status. Over time he became frustrated because of the lack of progress, and those same people suggested that he 'night want to cool off or possibly even leave IU. But Yeagley stuck it out.

"There were a lot of rough times during those years when

they weren't looking to add a new varsity sport," Yeagley said. "It had been a quarter of a century since they had made a new sport."

Yeagley received two special allies who he said helped tremendously. Jeff Richardson, student body president at the time, felt strongly about the program and became very active in promoting soccer. Yeagley said that without Richardson, men's soccer might not have gained varsity status. Another man, former IU Foundation Director Bill Armstrong, encouraged Yeagley to go for it and stood by his side.

"Bill Armstrong took me under his wing and was very supportive. He's sort of been the guardian angel of our soccer program from the time he helped us gain varsity status until today. He's still very supportive."

In 1973 the men's soccer team gained varsity status.

Yeagley received the position of head coach after posting a 78-25-7 record in 10 years as the club coach. And since the monumental season, the team managed to make and break records, win three NCAA Championships and six Big Ten Titles, appear in 11 NCAA Tournaments, and win numerous individual awards.

The first season the Hoosiers received much support, but playing at the varsity level presented a big difference — dealing with the NCAA rules and regulations. The Hoosiers had a successful opening season, but the NCAA selection committee passed them over despite a 12-2 record.

The team's first tournament appearance came in 1974. It compiled a 14-2 record for the season and faced Southern Illinois University. Despite the first round 2-0 loss to SIU, making it to the tournament pleased the Hoosiers.

The Hoosiers passed another milestone in 1976, with their first Final Four appearance.

But it was not until the 1980s that IU dominated the NCAA — appearing in six Final Fours, winning three NCAA Championships in 1982, 1983 and 1988, and receiving the title of "Team of the 1980s." Winning the championship in 1988 was incredibly special for the team because it won at home.

The 1990s represented the beginning of the Big Ten Conference acknowledging soccer as a varsity sport (1991). In seven years of conference tournament play, the Hoosiers won or tied in six championship games, won bids to the NCAA Tournament every year and made three Final Four appearances.

The Hoosiers' 1994 NCAA Tournament play led to a 1-0 loss to the University of Virginia in the final round. Yeagley enjoyed the experience more because his son Todd played on that team. Rumors of Coach Yeagley's impending retirement began.

Coach Yeagley watches his team's play during the 1987 season. For Yeagley, the trying season was a disappointing one, as the Hoosiers failed to make the NCAA playoffs for the first time in 10 years. Said Yeagley, "Our unit never had the chemistry they needed to succeed. Our fellas went out there wondering how we are going to lose tonight." Arbutus file photo by Tom Hirschfeld.

"Winning a championship with him (Todd) would have really been the ultimate. And we didn't do that," Yeagley said.

"I was frustrated. I was disappointed. We didn't win, and yet I wasn't ready to step down. The time wasn't right. And since then, I've gotten sort of a second wind."

The Hoosiers lost in the first round of the tournament to Butler University 1-0 in 1995. And in 1996 they made it to the third round of tournament play losing to Florida International University 1-0. The loss to FIU represented the end of a season and the end of senior Joey Cavallo's IU career.

"When we lost I really realized how much the game meant to him (Yeagley)," Cavallo said. "I was sitting beside him in the locker room and I looked over at him and saw a lifeless body. It just made me realize how much he wants to win, how much he wants us to win, and how much it means to him to win.But 1997 stood out as one of the most incredible seasons Coach Yeagley, or NCAA men's soccer, had ever seen. The Hoosiers went undefeated in the regular season posting a record of 18-0. They dominated the Big Ten Conference, gaining the regular season conference title and winning the conference championship. No other team under Yeagley had gone undefeated without ties in a regular season. The 1983 and 1984 teams never lost a game but compiled a record of 40-0-6. The 1976 team also never lost in regular season play

but finished with one tie.

Although the Hoosiers came close to a perfect season, they fell short when they lost to UCLA in the semi-final game of the NCAA Tournament. They ended with a record of 23-1.

Yeagley's love for soccer began when he was a youth playing at Myerstown High School in Myerstown, Pa. The small school he attended offered soccer, basketball and baseball. "Soccer was big back in that area of Pennsylvania. So I was exposed to it as a youth and was fortunate to play on a high school championship team and recruited to college and played on a national championship team in college at West Chester State (University)."

Yeagley remained the only coach to gain a unique soccer triple crown. He played on a high school championship team, and played and coached for a NCAA championship team.

Yeagley received his bachelor's degree in health and physical education at West Chester State University in West Chester, Pa. and went on to receive his master's degree from the University of Pittsburgh. The Department Chairman at Pitt knew the dean of IU's HPER school and recommended Yeagley for a teaching position which included supervision of the soccer club. Yeagley received the position and arrived at IU ready to improve the club program.

"My goal was to direct it toward varsity status. I was given encouragement to do that. Had I known it was going to take 10

years, I don't know if I would've come, but I learned some of my most valuable lessons during those 10 years with the club."

Over the years Yeagley received numerous offers to coach professional soccer. But he remained satisfied with his coaching job at IU. He said that no matter what happened he took the heat or got the praise where in the professional leagues, many things would he out of his hands. "I felt that I had the very best job in the country for soccer here at Indiana."

Yeagley's son, Todd, joined the professional ranks as a member of the Columbus Crew, a Major League Soccer Team.

Todd always knew there were other priorities in life, which made his decision hard to join a MLS team.

"My dad always tried to bring me down to earth and stress that education was first," Todd said. "Both of us, maybe through his advice, kept it out of our minds." But after Todd finished his second season, things were going well. "My Dad is a little easier on me than he used to be. For him, he's living through me and something he was not able to do."

Coach Yeagley and his wife supported Todd's decision.

And for once in his life, Coach Yeagley got the chance to be a fan. "I remember how I felt when he wore our uniform for the first time as a freshman during the "Star Spangled Banner" looking out there and seeing him wearing Indiana, you get a feeling that you just can't describe. Now this (his first MLS

game) didn't quite match that, but the pride was there."

Yeagley ranked fourth on the all-time winningest coach list and was named National Coach of the Year four times. He produced 36 All-Americans, six Olympians, more than 60 professional players, more than 20 national team players, four Hermann Trophy winners, three World Cup players and two Missouri Athletic Cup Players of the Year.

Yeagley not only made an impact on awards committees, but on people closer to home — his players.

"He's a great speaker," Cavallo said. "He can communicate with his players in a way that gets the most out of each of them. He always knows what to say and how to say it."

In January Yeagley received the National Soccer Coaches Association of America's most prestigious accolade, the Honor Award, during the 51st annual NSCAA Convention held in Cincinnati. He ended his 25th season with a record of 434-78-37.

Yeagley prided himself on every accomplishment that he and his teams had made over the years. But the most important thing to him was being happy. And he was.

"I've grown to appreciate Bloomington," Yeagley said. "The longer I've been here, the more I realize it's a special place and there's no place I would rather be. I think IU is as fine an institution as there is in the nation, and Bloomington is a place that I think is ideal. I've got everything I want right here." in

Football team struggles despite a season of change

START of a NEW ERA

By Sharna Marcus

s the clock ran out, the football team surrounded Coach Cam Cameron, doused him with Gatorade and Acarried him off the field. Fans joined in cheering with the team after its 23-6 defeat of Illinois Nov. 1.

The victory introduced Cameron to his first taste of success in the Big Ten and gave IU its first home conference victory since IU pounded Minnesota Oct. 1, 1994.

The dramatic defeat of Illinois highlighted a season that otherwise disappointed Hoosier fans and the team. The squad struggled through another losing season and ended with a 2-9 record. IU did not score one point during October when it faced four Top 20-ranked Big Ten teams.

"I don't think you ever want to go to a season saying you expect to win two, three or four games," Cameron said. "I expected it to be very difficult. I knew it would be difficult just because I know this league and I know the teams we're up against."

Cameron started several true freshmen who might have been redshirted originally if IU claimed more personnel.

Freshmen O.J. Conner, Tyrone Browning, Marcus Floyd, DeWayne Hogan and Joslin Goodman all started throughout the season, becoming an essential part of the Hoosier line-up.

The freshmen impressed Cameron with their play, but they still lacked experience.

After the Illinois victory, the team deserved a celebration.

Senior punter Alan Sutkowski, IU's career punt leader, chose to celebrate with his wife, Natalie, and 3-month-old baby Macy Ryan instead of the team. Macy carried the Illinois game ball Alan earned after punting four times for a 42.3 yard average, with one kick sailing 53 yards.

"Sometimes I want to go out with the guys, but I like being at home, living a little slower lifestyle," Alan said. "I think it's helped me with football, not going out and running around. I like it. It keeps me out of trouble."

Sutkowski helped the defense stay out of trouble by giving the opposition poor field position, special teams coach John Harbaugh said.

"He punts the ball inside the 10-yard line as well as any punter I've been around," Harbaugh said. "He's hit some

boomers when we needed to have boomers hit; he's punted it out of bounds when we neededit out of bounds; he's really done everything we've asked him to do."

Sutkowski's performance this season reflected on his past success as a second All-Big Ten selection in 1996 when he averaged 43.3 yards per punt.

"I think he's done a great job," Natalie said. "He doesn't give himself a lot of credit. He's better than he thinks he is."

Despite strong performances by individual players like Sutkowski and the depth of a new freshmen class, the Hoosier line-up still faced a difficult season. IU opened the season with a 23-6 loss to the University of North Carolina.

The challenges of the new football schedule compounded in the first few weeks for IU wide receiver, Dorian Wilkerson.

Sept. 1 the senior's half-brother, Ernest Bynes, died from bone cancer. Doctor's determined his half-brother's condition terminal just three months before his death.

"He was so positive," Wilkerson said. "I thought he'd live forever. He didn't look like he had a disease. He was always happy so we never knew it was happening."

Wilkerson flew home to Lauderdale Lakes, Fla., the day after Bynes death. Three days later the senior flew to Chapel Hill, N.C., for IU's Sept. 6 debut against the University of North Carolina.

The trip drained him. Wilkerson said he played poorly in the loss to the Tarheels, his only opportunity to play against Dre' Bly, one of the best defensive backs in the country.

"At North Carolina I really hurt the team," Wilkerson said.

"I was just holding down a position. One play I was focused on the game, the next play on my brother and my family."

At North Carolina Wilkerson caught only one pass for nine yards. But in front of a home crowd the next week, he returned ready to play. He caught five passes for 130 yards and one touchdown in the 33-6 win over Ball State University.

"He's overcome a reconstructed shoulder and a family tragedy and I think all the credit goes to Dorian for coming out and playing that way," Cameron said. "We need him to come out and play like that for nine more weeks."

The Hoosiers played their first difficult home game against the University of Kentucky, losing 49-7. The Sept. 20 loss to the Wildcats came just one week after the team shut down Ball State. Fans and the media criticized Cameron after the Kentucky game for attempting fourth down conversions on each opportunity instead of kicking field goals. Cameron argued with such a young offense, his play calls appeared the correct choice.

"I'm going to put my players in the most difficult situations possible," Cameron said. "They know, and we know, that's the only way they'll learn."

Cameron reformed his plan in the Big Ten opener the next week against Wisconsin in Madison, Wis. Sophomore Andy Payne kicked four field goals which positioned IU in a 26-24 lead with :53 seconds left in the game. Wisconsin made a dramatic comeback and won the Sept. 27 contest 27-24. The loss shattered the Hoosiers' spirit and marked the turning point of the season.

"If you look at just wins and losses it can look very disappointing," Cameron said. "But if you take a couple of things into account, we did play a very difficult schedule which we will basically play every year. But I don't think you could have one more difficult than this year."

In addition to facing six teams ranked in the Top 25, II had trouble dealing with numerous injuries and finding players to fill open positions on the team. Cameron played a

freshman who had never been a wide receiver before and experienced difficulty trying to find a true running back.

Even though IU did not capture a bid for a bowl game, Cameron's team practiced through the month of December.

"We're going to practice the entire month of December as if we're going to the Rose Bowl," Cameron said. "We're going to get ready as if we had a game Jan. 1. We're going to practice with that kind of intensity."

In January, Cameron traveled around the country speaking to alumni, while his staff completed recruiting trips.

"Our alumni has been fabulous," Cameron said. "I don't think there's a head coach in America that's getting as much support. in

"""'earing the end of the women's soccer season, the Hoosiers truly believed they had the potential to _.._ defeat the Northwestern Wildcats in the first round of the Big Ten Championships.

Their hopes fell short as Northwestern scored early in the game placing the Hoosiers on the defensive. Though both senior forward Wendy Dillinger and sophomore forward Tracy Grose attempted several shots on goal, none of them found the back of the net. During the second half, the team attempted to redeem itself. Unfortunately they could not overcome the emotional game of the Wildcats and lost 3-0.

"We have an abundance of talent," said Dillinger, "The team's ability and potential is extraordinary, but we (always found ourselves) one step away."

In their fifth year of varsity status, the women began the season with a Big Ten Championship under their belt and experienced players. Dillinger described the first team in 1993 as basically a "team full of freshman." Five years later the Hoosiers had matured and were ready to defend their title.

Only this time out, the squad battled many ups and downs.

IU started the season auspiciously by winning seven of its first 10 matches. Early in the season, the Hoosiers defeated Bowling Green State University 6-1 and kicked a record 44 shots on goal.

One of the Hoosiers' toughest matches came against No. 2ranked University of Notre Dame Sept. 30. IU finished the game with four shots and eight saves, seven of which came from sophomore goalie Ashley Davis.

The match proved to be one of the more physical games the Hoosiers faced. Sophomore Carrie Watts received a concussion, forcing her to leave the game with less than 11 minutes left in the first half.

Watts, an excellent offensive player by Coach Joe Kelley's standards, used her versatility and defensive skills to play sweeper for the Hoosiers most of the season. Sophomore back Emily Etzkorn aided Watts on the field throughout the season. "Emily is a dominant player who can control the continued game," Kelley said.

Women's Soccer 263

Etzkorn scored the lone goal for the Hoosiers in 1996's Big Ten Championship match and also scored during the team's 2-0 victory over University of Kentucky. The Kentucky match-up date marked the program's 50th win.

It took a combination of raw talent and experience from the entire team to get the Hoosiers through the second half of the season when they faced several upsets. Although the Hoosiers played many games better technically and tactically, the losses resulted from the lack of team chemistry, aggravated by injuries that plagued the team throughout the year.

"It was major injuries coupled with minor injuries. Though the team played very well throughout the year, we just couldn't capitalize on the opportunities," senior goalie Merit Elzey said. "Nothing seemed to go our way."

Senior back Azure Johnson and sophomore forward Tracy Grose sat out part of the season due to injuries. The team felt Johnson and Grose's absence on the field. The lack of playing time also left Grose's timing a bit off.

Tracy (on the field)," said Elzey.

Elzey, herself, dealt with the pressure of her reputation as one of the nation's best goalies. The phenom worked hard to stay focused, continually reminding herself to concentrate on the present.

"This year was extremely difficult for me. In soccer you have complete dependence on your teammates," Elzey said.

Luckily, Elzey had plenty of talent on the field. Dillinger led the team offensively again this season, earning First Team All-Big Ten Honors. Dillinger sat out the 1996 season because of an appendectomy and said it was a learning experience. Being on the sidelines enabled her to see and understand some things she had struggled with in the past.

Dillinger's love for the game showed. She received recognition not only for her soccer talent and amazing ball control, but also for her drive and leadership.

"Soccer is who I am, not what I do," Dillinger said, "The game is a part of my soul. Without it I wouldn't be able to describe myself. - in

Injuries prevent runners from reaching potential

LIMPING

to the FINISH

By Brian Mitchell efore the men's cross country team competed in the Great Lakes Regional meet, its most important race of the season, B Coach Sam Bell expressed a little more than concern for his team. Considering the top team from this race would qualify for the NCAA championships in Greenville, S.C., Bell had a feeling his team would not make the trip down south.

"It's pretty obvious that our team is not going to qualify for the national championship race," Bell said prior to this meet.

The statement exemplified the men's season. The team, mired with serious confidence problems the entire season, ended the season with some rather disappointing results overall. Most of the top runners suffered from injuries at some point during the season and sat out some of the key races.

"We never really had everyone healthy," junior Tom Chorny said.

"We lost to a lot of teams we shouldn't have because of those injuries.

That pretty much describes our whole season."

Bell expressed how much trouble his team had in competition when many runners sustained injuries. "It's tough for a one-legged man to beat someone with two legs," Bell said.

The team ran shorthanded in nearly every meet. Lacking a healthy squad, the entire team struggled to find the numbers necessary to finish its races at the top of the standings.

Individual performances saved the season from complete ruin.

Chorny led the Hoosiers in five of the team's seven meets. He also won his first ever collegiate cross country race early in the season, competing against runners from University of Tennessee, U.S. Naval Academy, and Central Michigan University. Chorny said the win was a great thrill for him.

"That was one of my highlights for the season," Chomy said. "It was a great feeling to win a race."

Freshman Marius Bakken's individual performance made an immediate impact for the Hoosiers. Bakken, the highest finishing freshman at the Big Ten Championships in Columbus, Ohio, earned the distinction of Big Ten Conference Freshman of the Year. But the Big Ten Championships did not mark the end of his successful first year. His 15th place finish in the season-ending Great Lakes Regional meet earned him a spot at the NCAA Championships. Bakken advanced to Greenville, S.C., where he placed 29th.

"I didn't really know what to expect," Bakken said. "I felt I peaked at the right time, toward the end of the season when it was most important.

I'm satisfied with how I ran this year."

Bakken summed up the season for the Hoosiers saying it was a season full of -- "A lot of talent, a lot of injuries and a great team atmosphere."in

By Brian Mitchell omen's cross country began the season heavy on talent and loaded with potential. The young team, dominated by underclassmen, approached the season with great enthusiasm. The women lacked experience, but hoped their youthfulness would carry them through the early meets of the season.

The season evolved into a plethora of "what ifs," after it began with great potential and finished with great disappointment.

"The team as a whole just didn't come together," coach Roseann Wilson said. "We started out with a lot of promise to have a pretty good team, but we couldn't find any consistency as a whole in most of the meets."

IU started strong, after first, second and second place finishes respectively in the season's first three meets. Yet the team hit a downward spiral after those races, one it never really recovered from. Senior Jenny Sprowls said putting it all together in the same race caused problems for the team.

"We never really all had decent races on the same day," Sprowls said. "We were a lot better team than we showed in those meets."

Junior Traci Knudsen agreed, saying the season was one of ups and downs.

"It was a so-so season. It had its good points and bad points. And, it definitely started better than it ended," Knudsen said.

Freshman phenom Amber Macy led the

team all season, placing highest of any true freshman in the season-ending district meet.

Macy finished in the top 10 overall in four of the team's meets during the season, and led the Hoosiers in all but one meet. Wilson felt Macy made and immediate impact in her debut season.

"Amber Macy had a very strong first season," Wilson said. "And it's only a preview of what's to come. She can only get better."

Besides the strong performance of Macy during the entire season, several other runners had success. Sophomore Cassidy Wall finished second in a tri-meet versus Univeristy of Tennessee and Central Michigan University. Macy placed third in the race, losing to Wall by 15 seconds.

Other standout runners, sophomore Kathryn Barber, who ran in every team meet, and freshman Kelli O'Connor, who had an extremely strong season in her first year of collegiate competition, helped to balance the team.

Despite problems during the season, Wilson believed the team could have improved upon the eighth place finish in the 1996 Big Ten Conference meet. But Nov. 1 the ladies placed eighth again.

Knudsen said the team had potential, but didn't go out there and run like in practice.

"The team used this season to gain learning experience," Knudsen said.in

hoever said You can't go home again" did not convince Indiana University football coach Cam Cameron.

When IU Athletic Director Clarence Doninger conducted his search for a new head coach, he was looking for a coach who had Indiana ties, involvement in college coaching, and involvement in the pro ranks. Cameron could not have been a more perfect fit.

Recruited by IU as a two-sport star from Terre Haute South High School as a senior, Cameron earned All-State honors twice in football. Named an All-American his senior year in football, he also led his basketball team to three straight state finals.

At IU, Cameron was a member of the Hoosiers' football team from 1979-1983. As the squad's back-up quarterback, he lettered in 1982-1983. He graduated in 1983 with a bachelor's degree in business management and education.

"Coach Cameron has been here, and knows this campus," junior fullback Chris Gall said. "He has an understanding of what needs to be done and you don't sneak anything past him. We respect that, and he has a respect for us, knowing what we're going through."

Cameron also lettered three times in basketball under Coach Bob Knight. Averaging .5 points per game, he played on the 1982-83 Big Ten Championship team.

"Cam was an excellent part of our basketball team when he played here," Knight said in the 1997 Football Media Guide. "He was a kid who understood his role on the basketball team. He did everything he possibly could to help the team become better, in practice, the times that he played and the way he handled himself in the locker room.

Cam has a real understanding of what it takes, from a variety of different directions, to be good."

In 1984, Cameron relocated to Ann Arbor, where he served for two years as a graduate assistant. Then, in 1986, he became the youngest full-time assistant on the Wolverine's staff, coaching quarterbacks and wide receivers.

He brought to IU a knowledge of not only what it takes to be a competitive football team, but to be a consistent winner in the Big Ten Conference. During his 10-year career at Michigan, the Wolverines won six Big Ten Championships and two Rose Bowls, and attended howl games every year. Michigan's total record during Cameron's

stint was an amazing 90-26-5.

"He's extremely intelligent," Gall said. "So you have a lot of confidence with him on the field. He has been to Rose Bowls and won championships. The players see that and gain confidence, knowing that he knows what it takes to win."

Cameron coached and helped develop eventual NFL quarterbacks Jim Harbaugh, Elvis Grbac and Todd Collins into winners at Michigan. He also coached NFL star receivers such as Chris Calloway, Derrick Alexander, Amani 'roomer, Mercury Hayes and Heisman Trophy winner Desmond Howard when they played at Michigan.

"He coached players like that who have made it in the pros," Gall said. "It's great to know that he has the capability to take us to that next level."

Cameron's success at Michigan gave him the opportunity to move to the pros. During his three years as Washington's quarterback coach, he helped improve the Redskins' record. Cameron coached Heath Shuler, and received credit with the quick development of Redskin starting quarterback Gus Frerotte, who was named to the 1997 Pro Bowl.

The 35-year-old Cameron returned to IU in 1997 and received a seven-year contract from the University.

"Being an alum and having played basketball and football here, he knows what the program has lacked and is taking real steps to turn things around," senior guard Victor Allotey said. "Coach Cam will turn Indiana into a winning program. He has the knowledge of the game. And he teaches the game of football — which hasn't been done around here in awhile."

Cameron came to IU to teach not only championship football, but to start getting everyone involved.

"We've got to start getting everybody involved in the game and find a way — me, you, everybody here — to get every student on this campus involved," Cameron said.

The players, the coaches and fans shared the enthusiasm for Cameron's style of football. And, the II.' faitliful wanted the Hoosiers to be where he's been — playing championship f()( ANAL "One reason this is really exciting for me to be back is because Indiana University has done a lot for me and my family," Cameron said. "I think it is a way for me to give something back." in

Hoosiers hit n. i-season

COMING u p SHORT

By Jennifer Fish

was the best of times. . .Returning six starters from the 1996 season, the women's volleyball team kicked off the I 1997 season with a bang. The 15 straight victories in September made history as the longest winning streak for the Hoosiers, breaking a record set 20 years ago. The 1977 team held the previous record with nine consecutive wins.

The season began for the team before classes started for the rest of IU. In Amhurst, Mass., the Hoosiers scored victories over Mercer University, Northeastern University and University of Massachusetts in the UMass Reebok Invitational, capturing the tournament title.

Once home, the Hoosiers captured their second tournament title with four victories in the course of two days.

The team defeated the University of Dayton, 3-1; University of Tennessee, 3-0; Miami University of Ohio, 3-1; and Oklahoma University 3-2 to capture the Ameritech Cellular Paging Classic held in the Hoosiers' own University Gym. Sophomores outside hitter Ryann Connors and setter Kristina Sanderson made the all-tournament team, along with Flatley, who earned MVP honors after leading the Hoosiers to victory.

The Hoosiers remained in the middle of a hot streak which followed them to the Marshall/Radisson Classic in Huntington, W. Va. Leaving with three wins over the University of Cincinnati, University of Virginia and Marshall University, the Hoosiers brought back the third consecutive tournament title for the season. Sanderson received MVP honors and junior outside hitter Jennifer Magelssen joined her on the all-tournament team.

After almost a full week's rest the Hoosiers returned to the court determined to win the Indiana Classic, held in the University Gym. Claiming its fourth consecutive title, the team improved its season to 13-0 and prepared for the beginning of the Big Ten season.

"It (four tournament titles) was new and exciting to start the season so well," Magelssen said "We hoped we could keep it up through the Big Ten season.Two victories on the road against Purdue and No. 21 Ohio State improved the Hoosiers record to 15-0. The win over the Buckeyes also gave the team its first national ranking in school history. The Hoosiers received enough votes in the t

USA Today/AVCA (American Volleyball Coaches Association) Coaches Top 25 Poll to become No. 25 in the nation for the week of Sept. 30. The same week, Flatley became IU's first AVCA National Player of the Week and the Big Ten Player of the Week.

"It was an exciting time. The team was just doing great — we were on cloud nine," Flatley said.

It was the worst of times. . .After a perfect start in the month of September, the No. 25 Hoosiers headed to Wisconsin to face their third opponent of the Big Ten season.

Disappointed, the team left with a 0-3 loss to the Badgers, capping the beginning of a three-match losing streak.

Despite a win over Iowa two weeks later, the Hoosiers never got back on track and finished the latter half of the season with a 3-15 record and an eighth-place finish in the Big Ten. Katie Weismiller in her fifth season as the head coach at IU attributed the downward to slide to an outside element.

"The press began questioning the ability of the team and whether they would good enough to be 15-0," said Weismiller. "They questioned what would happen during the Big Ten season, and soon the players bought into it and began to question themselves."

The Hoosiers did manage to sweep the series against Iowa and won the second match against Northwestern. Although the Hoosiers lost all 15 matches to Big Ten teams; Michigan, Michigan State, Ohio State, Penn State and Wisconsin were all nationally ranked when IU played them one or both times.

"The Big Ten is one of the strongest conferences in the nation," Flatley said "In the Big Ten you have to come out ready to play every night. Instead of using the losses as motivation, we just kept slipping."

Flatley led the team with 426 kills for the season, averaging 3.74 per game. She posted a career high 27 kills against Purdue Sept. 29 and finished with a team-high .294 attack percentage. The senior captain earned Academic All-Big Ten honors and was named to the AVCA All District II team. "(Flatley) was the perfect captain." Magelssen said. "She helped guide everyone along and was the main reason we got off to such a good start."

The Hoosiers also faced a season where many past school records were broken. Magelssen became the second Hoosier in history to post 1,000 career kills and 1,000 career digs. She received MVP honors in two tournaments during the 1997 season and ranked fifth all time for career kills, with 1,072 and second for career digs, with 1,044.

Two sophomores also broke single-season records for the Hoosiers. Sanderson had 1,577 assists throughout the season and Cydryce Carter had 130 blocked assists.

Record crowds filled University Gym to watch the Hoosiers' play. The 1997 attendance mark of 9,777 fans for the entire season, bettered the total from 1996 by

approximately 2,000 people. Averaging 575 fans per match and 827 per match during the Big Ten season, the team had a full house during the 17 home matches.

But, the Hoosiers' season did not end the way they had hoped. Magelssen called it an up-and-down season, with the team's strength being the close friendships on and off the court.

"The thing that kept us going was that we were like a family," Flatley said. "We pushed each other, helped each other and kept each other going."

Weismiller envisioned the team finshing in the top half of the Big Ten and earning an invitation to the NCAA Tournament at the beginning of the season.

"We just fell short this year," Weismiller said. in

--------------------- Men's swimming and diving completes successful season

SILENCING

t h e COMPETITION

By Jennifer Fish

-4 \Th one knew the potential of Indiana University's men's swimming and diving team when the members ...dove into the cool water of the Councilman Billingsley Aquatic Center pool for the first practice of the season. In the fall, no one would have predicted a fifth-place finish at the Big Ten Championships or a trip to the NCAA Championships for two swimmers and two divers.

The potential rested in the hearts of the team members as they capitalized on their talent, making great strides in the water and on the boards.

Coming into the Indiana Invitational, the Hoosiers had a 11 record, cruising by Miami University of Ohio before stumbling to the University of Kansas Jayhawks 140-103 in the home opener of the season. The Jayhawks successfully held off the Hoosiers in the pool recording wins in all but two events, while IU's diving team swept the one-meter and threemeter diving competitions.

November 21-23, six teams met in Bloomington for the Indiana Invitational. The Hoosiers demolished the competition, gathering a 237-point lead over second-place University of South Carolina by the end of the second day of competition.

The win at the invitational prepared the 14 Hoosiers selected

by Coach Kris Kirchner for the competition in Indianapolis at the U.S. Open Championships. At the national event those selected swam against the nation's elite. Senior Rob Iglinski's time of 2:10.47 won the bonus consolation final in the 200 IM, finishing 17th overall.

The Hoosiers began 1998 strong with four consecutive wins over South Carolina, Northwestern, University of Cincinnati and Michigan State before faltering at Michigan Jan. 31. The Wolverines, winners of 11 of the previous 12 Big Ten titles, annihilated the Hoosiers by 68 points. Junior diver Mike Collier and Tom Trent secured the only wins for the Hoosiers in the one-meter springboard and 500-freestyle events respectively.

IU lost the final Big Ten meet of the season to rival Purdue.

The Boilermaker win came down to the final event of the afternoon, the 400 free relay. Prior to the event, IU held a threepoint lead over Purdue, but the Boilermakers captured both first and third in the event to beat the Hoosiers 124.5-118.5.

"We had a lot of good things happen, but we just didn't have it as a team," eight-year coach of the men's swim team, Kirchner said. "This was a great meet with the crowd and the close races. This is what you expect from a Purdue-IU meet."

After a two-week preparation period, the team headed north to Minneapolis, Minn. for the Big Ten Championships held Feb. 26-28. The men performed well, placing fifth with seven swimmers and two relay teams receiving consideration times for the NCAA Championships.

Yet Kirchner said he believed the team could have done better. "I felt (the team) wasn't complacent with a fifth-place

finish, but that's where we wound up," Kirchner said. "We were getting something done, but not all together. I think they did what they had to do."

But Trent, senior tri-captain, was happy with the team's performance. "This team always gives 100 percent," Trent said.

"And this weekend, they gave it. I don't have any personal problems with taking fifth place because we swam well."

And for the second consecutive year, IU's divers dominated the Big Ten. In the one-meter springboard competition sophomore Tom Davidson finished first, Collier finished second and sophomore Ryan Kosanic placed fourth. In the three-meter event, Davidson finished second with Collier finishing sixth. On the platform Collier placed first and Davidson fourth.

Diving coach Dr. Jeff Huber, in his ninth season at IU, was named Big Ten Coach of the Year for the second consecutive season, marking the fourth of his career. Davidson, named Diver

of the Championships, also was the Big Ten Diver of the Month for February. Collier received the title of Big Ten Diver of the Year, a title he also earned in 1997.

March 13-14, Coach Huber accompanied his divers to the NCAA Regional Meet at Miami University in Oxford, Ohio.

Collier and Davidson qualified for the NCAA Championships March 26-28 at Auburn University, with Collier winning the one-meter and three-meter competitions.

Swimmers sophomore Ken Ackerman and Iglinski also represented the Hoosiers at the NCAA meet. The Hoosiers finished 21st, with Iglinski's best finish of 12th place in the 400 IM and Ackerman's 16th-place finish in the 200 backstroke.

Davidson's highest finish of the meet occurred during the platform competition as he placed 10th. Collier achieved All-American status with his two top-five finishes in the one and three-meter springboard and a sixth-place finish on the platform.

Women complete successful season

MAKING WAVES

By Alyssa Peterson hen the Indiana University women's swim team dove into the water for its first practice W in September, it focused on one goal: to place in the top five at the Big Ten Championships. In February, the Lady Hoosiers accomplished this mission, edging out Illinois for fifth place, the team's best finish in 12 years.

Freshman Jen Cristy led the successful squad, as she tied for the Big Ten gold in the 50-yard freestyle event. But Cristy's efforts, alone, could not elevate IU's conference status. Although her first-place finish marked the only individual win for IU, the balanced and collaborative efforts of the entire team contributed to its stellar performance at the Big Ten Championships and throughout the year.

"One of the keys to our success this season was the combination of our strong freshman class and the improvement of our upperclassmen," said assistant coach Deb Hastings, a 1992 IU graduate and swim team alum.

This year's roster boasted a large rookie class of nine fresh faces.

"The new blood of the freshmen added to our enthusiasm, performance and standing," junior co-captain Jen Brooks said.

Brooks and Cristy represented IU at the NCAA Championships in Minneapolis, Minn. Brooks, who held the school record in the 100-yard butterfly, finished an impressive 19th in the event, while Cristy swam in the 100yard breaststroke, 100-yard freestyle and 50-yard freestyle events. Her eighth-place finish in the 50-yard freestyle earned the spirited freshman All-American honors.

Yet, the Big Ten meet only capped off a successful season for the Hoosiers which started in September.

During first semester competition, the women handed long-time rival Purdue a dual meet loss and also defeated the Top 20-ranked team from the University of Kansas.

The two victories early in the season, along with the team's domination at the Indiana Invitational in December, set the stage for the grand finale.

"The times they were swimming at mid-season showed they could progress," said Hastings, proud of her team's swimming throughout the year.

The fast times brought numerous changes to IU's record book. Cristy marked her first year by capturing the school record in three individual events (100 and 50-yard freestyle, 100-yard breaststroke) in addition to her spots on four record-setting relays. The team of senior captain Laura

Kerns, junior Christine Jamerino, freshman Meghan Rice and Cristy set a new school record in the 200-yard freestyle relay; Kerns, Rice, Cristy and freshman Christina Iaquinto claimed the fastest IU performance in the 400-yard freestyle Relay. Senior Amy Hennies, juniors Becky Kamberg and Brooks, and Cristy joined forces to set the school records in both the 200- and 400-yard medley relays.

Yet, there was one blight at the end of what some would describe as a successful season, which gave the Hoosiers their best Big Ten finish in 12 years. Coach Nancy Nittardy, who finished her sixth season at IU, received word that her contract would not be renewed.

Nittardy had no comment on the decision. Brooks said a number of different factors played a role in the administration's decision.

While the swimmers kept busy in the competition pool, the IU divers soared to new heights on the boards. Veteran diver and former NCAA Champion Kimiko Hirai reached the finals in both the one and three-meter events at the Big Ten Championships. Meanwhile, freshman Erin Quinn broke onto the collegiate scene by placing second in both events. Quinn's season and conference success acted as a prelude to her 13th-place finish at the NCAAs, where she joined Hirai in representing the cream and crimson.

"Everybody on the team contributed to our success," said captain Kerns, reflecting on her final year of competition at IU. "We were a diverse group, but we all learned from and supported each other well.- ni

UNABLE

By Jennifer Fish

F finishing 58th at the NCAA Tournament, the Indiana University wrestling team finally laid its dismal season to rest. In a sport which required not only emotional and physical strength, but finesse — the Hoosiers could not come together as a team to dominate in the Big Ten. The Big Ten Conference dominated the sport nationally as Iowa ascended to the throne, the national champion. Minnesota finished 13 points behind the Hawkeyes clinching second with Penn State and Illinois also grabbing top-10 finishes.

Thus IU's 1-6 record in the Big Ten and 11th-place finish at the conference championships seemed inevitable based on the strength and caliber of the opponents the Hoosiers competed against during the season.

Facing a rebuilding season with the graduation of three of the four NCAA participants from the 1996-97 season, including the school's all-time winningest wrestler, Roger Chandler, the Hoosiers looked to regroup. To compensate the loss, six-year coach and 1986 NCAA Champion in the 190-pound weight class, Duane Goldman recruited a freshman class which boasted eight state champions and contained five possible starters at the collegiate level. And in the Amateur Wrestling News' preseason poll selected by the National Wrestling Coaches Association, IU was picked to finish 32nd nationally.

Coach Goldman had faith in his Hoosiers despite their inexperience. "I feel it's as talented a group as I've had since we've been here, and I still expect us to have a successful season," Goldman said prior to the start of the season. "The biggest thing is how they react to adversity."

Goldman decided to test the ability of his freshmen in the season opener in St. Louis. Competition in the St. Louis Open Tournament began Friday with the matches by the redshirt freshman and sophomores. Saturday the field opened up to include all wrestlers from the participating schools. The Hoosiers saw five teammates place in the top four with freshmen Brett Becks X177 pounds) and Viktor Sveda (190 pounds) each taking first place.

In St. Louis, Coach Goldman could gage the strengths and weaknesses of the team, forming a realization of what needed to be accomplished in the ensuing months.

"We had good showings from certain individuals, but on the whole, our inexperience showed," Coach Goldman said in a press release. "We have a lot of ground to cover before March in order to compete nationally at the high level which we've been accustomed to."

And 20 individual meets and invitationals later, the Hoosiers struggled to reach the Big Ten Championships as a nationally recognized team. IL'' also had to deal with the loss of junior Mike Powell and sophomore Tim Myers, whose seasons ended because of injuries.

292 Sports

Powell, a 1997 All-American ranked No. 11 in the country in the 167-pound weight class failed to finish the season because of an injury before the Big Ten Championships and Myers tore his ACL before the regular season had even begun.

January 17 the Hoosiers left Badger country after a defeat over Wisconsin. They were content and were unable to see the future — completing the remainder of the season without another win in the Big Ten. But in a season of peaks and valleys, the individual performances by some of the Hoosiers proved to be a beacon, motivating the rest of the team.

Senior Jason DeVries stepped up in the final home match of his career defeating Pat Quirk of Illinois. Quirk, ranked 19th in the nation in the 190-pound weight class, fell to DeVries 3-2, making the win DeVries' 18th of the season.

"I'm so used to people being ranked ahead of me, it doesn't mean anything to me. I was hoping for a win (in my final home match)," DeVries said.

With the opportunity to take on another nationally ranked opponent, IU met the ninth-ranked Boilermakers in Rensselaer Feb. 15. In the 118-pound weight class, Bloomington-native sophomore Pat Cassidy faced Tim Dernlan, the No. 8 wrestler in the nation. The 5-3 win by Cassidy gave the Hoosiers a lead in the meet, a lead which failed to last for long.

Cassidy's outstanding performance turned the momentum to IIts favor heading into the following matches, even though the Hoosiers did not win in the end.

"The momentum started off from Cassidy got me really pumped up," said junior James Torres. "He wasn't expected to win, and by winning, it kind of pumped up the rest of the team. It was the momentum for myself."

Strong individual performances throughout the season and at the Big Ten Championships provided three Hoosier wrestlers with an invitation to the NCAA Tournament held at Cleveland State University March 19-21. Torres at 134 pounds, redshirt freshman Kevin Stanley (150 pounds) and heavyweight Mike Dixon represented the Hoosiers. Torres gave the Hoosiers the only victory of the tournament with a win over Edinboro University of Pennsylvania's Rafael Vega later to be decisionned by the University of Wyoming's Bryce Bochy. Stanley and Dixon lost their first matches.

Ending the season, the Hoosiers fell short of the NWCA's suggested 32nd-place finish. The 58th-place finish marked the lowest finish in Goldman's six years at IU. The Hoosiers competed well against non-Big Ten opponents, but fellow conference wrestlers stopped the team. It was a long and hard road for the team, but being a youthful and talented team, it was a season they could learn and grow from. in

On the night of Feb. 24, the tremendous history of Indiana University men's basketball linked the past to the future as fans said goodbye to the next graduating class. Each senior took his turn speaking at the microphone placed on the painted replica of the state of Indiana. Eggers, Mandeville, Miller and Patterson thanked their families, Coach Bob Knight, their teammates and the fans.

Yet the 82-72 controversial loss to the Fighting Illini on Senior Night marked the bittersweet end to the Hoosiers' roller-coaster season, which began Nov. 14 at Temple University. The six-point loss to Temple in the season opener was the first of four road games. IU committed 23 turnovers, which led to 27 second-chance points for Temple. The Hoosiers had a 47-46 lead with eight minutes to play before being held scoreless until the 2:10 mark.

The Hoosiers rebounded from the Temple loss to beat University of Alabama by 16 points at the Birmingham Civic Center. Guyton led IU with 24 points as the Hoosiers went on a 14-0 run to break away from the one-point UAB lead.

Continuing the streak of road games, IU landed in Honolulu to begin play in the first game of the United Airlines Tip-off Tournament. The 8265 win over IU by the Rainbows of the University of Hawaii occurred in front of a sold-out crowd of 10,254 at the Special Events Center. IU did not score a basket in the last 4:36, receiving its second season loss.

IU made sure not to leave Honolulu disappointed and left with a staggering 103-69 win over Northern Louisiana University in the consolation game of the tournament. Freshman forward Luke Recker spurred the Hoosiers 14-2 run to break away from NLU in the first half.

From that point on they never looked back, scoring a season-high 103 points in a single game.

Returning to Bloomington, the Hoosiers opened the season at

296 Sports

Assembly Hall with a 91-80 win over the Fighting Irish of the University of Notre Dame and 1997 Big East Player of the Year Pat Garrity. The team did not remain home for long before traveling to Indianapolis to take on longtime rival the University of Kentucky at the RCA Dome.

Fans in IU cream and crimson and UK blue and white divided the arena, while the bands battled to outplay each other at the 41st meeting of IU and UK. Before the Dec. 6 game, the series remained tied at 2020, with Kentucky the victor in the last three meetings. Adrenaline and excitement filled the stadium as both teams battled in a game which had seven lead changes in the first half, leaving the Hoosiers with a seven-point deficit to overcome at halftime.

In the end, IU could not overcome Kentucky's strength and execution, never regaining a piece of the lead. The largest Wildcat lead occurred with 12:27 left, but IU consistently hattled back, reducing the lead to only two points with 10 seconds remaining. With the ball in junior college transfer William Gladness' hands, the forward had a chance to hit the game-tying basket, only to watch it sail over the rim and back to the Wildcats. UK won the game 75-72, and junior transfer Rob Turner scored a season-high 25 points, hitting 10-13 field goals.

"Turner is a tough kid. I think he did a pretty good job throughout the course of the game offensively," Knight said. "He really competes and he's just got to learn to play. He just kind of nods his head and tries.

You gotta like that."

After an 85-73 win over University of Evansville at home, the Indiana Classic tipped off in Bloomington Dec. 12. IU welcomed the University of Wisconsin - Green Bay, University of South Alabama, and Alcorn State University to Assembly Hall and first-round action began with IU defeating UW - Green Bay 72-58 and South Alabama heating Alcorn State to face IU in the championship game.

The Hoosiers won the previous 23 Indiana Classic titles and 1997 proved to be no different, as they defeated South Alabama 64-56. The Hoosiers only shot 46.9 percent from the floor and capitalized on only 14 of 23 free-throw shots. Guyton led the Hoosiers with 17 points, playing 35 minutes in the game.

"We had a tough preseason schedule, so I think we're right where we want to be, with the exception of the Temple game.I think we're going to be able to gel together as the season moves along," Guyton said. "We still don't know each other's strengths and weaknesses, which we need to know in order to be successful. I think we got all the ingredients to play.As many students deserted Bloomington and headed home for the holidays, the men headed to San Francisco to participate in the first of two holiday tournaments. But one of the team's starting players would no longer be traveling with his teammates. Sophomore center Jason Collier announced his intent to transfer Dec. 18. Collier became the eighth player in six years to leave the basketball team early to transfer to another school. At the onset of his announcement, various local and national publications began what seemed to be an annual tradition of questioning and analyzing Knight's coaching style and the lack of staying power he received from his athletes.

In a press statement released by IU, Knight said, "In talking with Jason 1 believe his decision is in his best interest as well as ours."

At the Pete Newell Challenge the Hoosiers faced the University of San Francisco Dons in the team's first game without Collier. The

298 Sports

Hoosiers refused to give up and overcame an eight-point half-time deficit to win 65-52. Dec. 27, the Hoosiers opened play in the Hoosier Classic held at the RCA Dome in Indianapolis. The men of Southwest Missouri State University, the University of North Carolina Charlotte, Western Michigan University, and IU all converged on the state capitol for two consecutive days of basketball mania.

In the first game the Hoosiers faced Southwest Missouri State, coached by Steve Alford, a 1987 IU graduate and star player for the men's basketball team. Gladness scored a career-high 23 points in the game, leading the Hoosiers to a 78-66 win. The Hoosiers also forced a season-high 16 steals and shot 54.5 percent from the field. In the last game of the preseason, Western Michigan also fell prey to IU as the team won its 16th consecutive Hoosier Classic title and had its sixth consecutive win of the preseason.

IU opened the Big Ten season with two losses, the first at home against the Iowa Hawkeyes on New Year's Eve and the second against Illinois at Champaign. Recker led the Hoosiers with 19 points in the 8976 loss to the Hawkeyes. Struggling again, IU found itself down by 22 points at the end of the first half in the contest against the Fighting Illini, only to go on a 28-6 run to tie the game. Shooting 65.4 percent in the second half, the Hoosiers suffered a tough loss 74-72.

Starting off the Big Ten season with two losses did not meet the approval of Coach Knight or the players. During the next game against Michigan the team began to make amends, starting with a convincing 18-point home victory. The Hoosiers remained tied with the Wolverines at 44 until a 15-2 scoring run broke open the game.

Wolverine interim coach Brian Ellerhe called the Hoosiers' play inspired and praised the effort, which held his No. 18-ranked team to a 40.7 field goal percentage from the floor.

Coach Knight was not sure whether his team played inspired or not.

"I though that we played well. I thought that we played hard, and I was really quite pleased at the kind of effort we got," Knight said.

Miller called the Michigan game a stepping stone, which would prove to turn around the season. "This is the first game we came across. We needed it, we got it and I think we just have to continue," Miller said. "Coming together is the real main focus I think we're going to have from here on out. We lost Jason Collier a couple weeks ago, we lost another player, Neil Reed, last year. I think what we need is cohesiveness and 1 think we're starting to get that. That's going to take us a long way."

For the next five games the Hoosiers found the cohesiveness which seemed to be lacking at the beginning of the Big Ten season. The team posted five straight conference wins starting with Michigan and ending with Wisconsin. IU tipped off against Ohio State at home, winning 8366 and next defeated Northwestern on the road.

The Jan. 18 matchup in Bloomington, pitted the Hoosiers against interstate rival No. 9 Purdue. The IU-Purdue contest had become one of the biggest rivalries in the nation, with Purdue winning five of the last six meetings. In the last two times both teams met in Assembly Hall, Purdue guard Chad Austin scored the game-winning basket. In 1997, Austin watched the game-winning basket sail through the hoop with 0.6 seconds remaining. In 1996, Austin hit a similar shot with 13.7 seconds left. But IU refused to how down to the Boilermakers' lastsecond heroics for the third year in a row and won the game outright by six points. The Hoosiers 22-8 second-half run spurred the win along with the outstanding performance by freshman standout Recker, who scored a career-high 27 points and 12 rebounds.

"Well I grew up in Indiana and ever since I can remember the Purdue-Indiana rivalry has been a special thing to me," Recker said. "I've been pretty frustrated the last couple of years with Purdue winning four straight and five out of the last six. I think we were determined to come in here and get a victory, especially on our home court.Sophomore leader Guyton commented on Recker's play. "When you play with your heart all the time, good things happen to you. And Luke plays with his heart all the time; he's enthusiastic about playing basketball, and good things happen for him," Guyton said.

The hot streak continued for the Hoosiers with a win over Wisconsin in Madison. But the Hoosiers then encountered a new roadblock — Michigan State. After the win over the Badgers, the Hoosiers were rewarded with the No. 25 ranking. The No. 22-ranked Spartans successfully dismantled IU's offense and defense on their way to the 18-point rout, resulting in 22 Spartan offensive rebounds and 30 second-chance points.

A determined Hoosier team reappeared in Assembly Hall three days after the loss to Michigan State. And for once the controversy of the IU-Minnesota game surrounded someone other than Coach Knight, as Minnesota coach Clem Haskins was ejected from the game with two technicals. The technical fouls came back-to-back at the 15:59 mark in the first half. The Hoosiers knew the Minnesota game would be a mustwin situation and capitalized by building a 27-point lead in the second half. Holding on to the lead proved to be problematic for the Hoosiers and the plague continued as Minnesota steadily wore down IU's lead, allowing the team to win by only 13 points.

"It was a must-win game. It was kind of sloppy, we really didn't execute as well. (Minnesota) kind of pressed and we laid down and laid back," Miller said.

"We had a 27-point lead, and they had some players who played in the Final Four last year. They know how to win. Luckily we came away with the victory."

The plague continued in the game against Penn State Feb. 4 at Assembly Hall as the Hoosiers won by 19 points. Although the score failed to reflect the Hoosiers scoring drought at the end of the game; the half-time score was 50-36. In the second half. IU only outscored Penn State by five points.

"We played really well, the best that we played all year for the first 31 minutes and then we end of giving up 38 points in the last nine minutes," Knight said. "We really talked about that a lot, spent a lot of time trying to overcome that lapse. We had a 22-point lead, and Penn State took away 16 (points) of that, almost without our scoring."

Even Knight realized the importance of winning both games and stressed the importance a win would have to the players.

"These were two games that we played right here that could really hurt us in the season. I don't often talk about the necessity to win, but I did with these two games," Knight said. "Losing either or both these two we just played would be real anchors for us as far as the season was concerned."

Yet, IU could not keep the winning streak alive as the team headed out on the road to meet Purdue in Mackey Arena. This time the Boilermakers proved to be more than the Hoosiers could handle and avenged the previous loss earlier in the season, defeating IU 94-89.

Once again, IU capitalized off of the loss and won the next two games against Northwestern and Ohio State.

"We try not to dwell on the (losses), we look at the mistakes we made in the game that we lost and just try to take them as a positive and try not to let those mistakes happen again the next game. We work on them hard in practice and try and carry it over into the next game.

That's really helped us a lot," Patterson said.

Knight praised the effort of the team after the Northwestern loss.

"These kids, much to their credit, have really turned some things around and done some things, at least to this point, that are a lot better than what we did last year," Knight said. "We struggled to be .500 last year and we lose four more games and we end up .500. But, just talking about it at this point, we're 8-4 in the conference, we've lost a couple of really close games, we've really only played poorly in one game that we lost. It's been a team that I think is tougher to play against. I think its a real credit to these kids trying to improve where we are and I think they've really done that."

Hope for a successful end to the Big Ten season and a high seed for the inaugural Big Ten Tournament began to disappear before the players' eyes as they watched the neon lights of the scoreboard continue to increase for the Wolverines with amazing speed. In a game which should have been an even matchup, IU could only watch as Michigan performed flawlessly on the court, while nothing seemed to go right for the Hoosiers. In the end, IU lost by 48 points, the largest margin of victory ever recorded by a Wolverine team in a Big Ten game. At the end of the game, Knight and the team walked off the court in disbelief because of the 112-64 loss.

"I'm sure if you were to ask the players they wouldn't be able to give you the answer," Knight said. "I'm sure they're just as

300 Sports

disappointed as we are. It looked like we had taken no time or had made any effort to prepare for the game, neither the players or coaches."

Things continued to go downhill for the Hoosiers as they dropped their last two games of the season to Iowa and Illinois. The last home game of the season and Senior Night occurred during the IU-Illinois game. But the highlight of the game was not the contest between the two teams, but the conflict between Knight and referee Ted Valentine.

The two had a previous run-in during the 1992 semi-final game of the NCAA Tournament between Duke and IU. During the Duke-IU game a string of controversial calls resulted in vocal protest by the IU bench, in which Valentine assessed the technical on Knight — the first time Knight ever received a technical because of actions of the bench.

Throughout the course of the game, five technical fouls were called, three of the five on Knight. Knight received his first technical with 1:51 remaining in the first half, and sophomore Larry Richardson had already received the first technical earlier. At halftime the loud boos by the fans followed Valentine off the floor.

The fireworks continued with less than 10 minutes left in the game.

At that point Recker attempted a lay-up, which could have resulted in a goal-tending call. At the same time, Recker hit the floor and remained lying beneath the basket injured. Knight left the bench to check on Recker and make sure he was not injured too badly. As soon as Knight walked onto the floor, Valentine hit him with the second technical which resulted in ejection from the game. Knight, then turned to explain that he had an injured player on the floor, and Valentine turned his back on Knight and game him a third technical.

But the reason for disciplinary action against Knight came in a statement Knight made at the conclusion of the game. "The second technical I got for ejection is for saying, 'I have an injured player on the floor.' And I have every right to go out on the floor when there is an injured player there," Knight said. "This and that guy is the greatest travesty I've ever seen in 33 years as a college head coach."

Because of Knight's outspoken statement verbally bashing Valentine, he received a penalty from the Big Ten, which resulted in payment of a 510,000 fine or a one-game suspension. Valentine also received punishment for his discriminating action against Knight and was barred from officiating any basketball games involving Big Ten Conference teams until November or December of the 1998-1999 season.

The Hoosiers lost to Illinois by 10 points on Senior Night, only the third time an IU team lost the last home game of the season. The crowd remained incensed and four hard-working graduating seniors did not receive the attention they truly deserved.

So Eggers, Mandeville, Miller and Patterson stood at center court alone, the rest of their teammates waiting at the baseline. Knight walked back on the court to congratulate his seniors and apologizefor the evening's events. For the first time of the evening fans rose to their feet, and cheers of encouragement and pride truly echoed throughout Assembly Hall in celebration — a celebration of another successful season, another graduating class and another year of many memorable moments — good and bad. it]

ERASING

the PAST

By Ryan Coleman

enior center Andrae Patterson sat on the bench as his last Big Ten regular season game tipped off against S Iowa March 1. Patterson, who started every conference game up to that point, registered a shy fc Air points in just 12 minutes of play. The loss capped a regular season three-game losing streak and any hope of a first-round bye in the inaugural Big Ten Tournament held in Chicago.

Instead of resting until Friday to take on No. 4 Michigan, IU had to contend with a feisty Ohio State in the first round Thursday March 5. Aside from the excitement of the conference's first post-season tournament, the Buckeyes wanted to avenge freshman Luke Recker's waning second steal and game winning dunk Feb. 19.

It was difficult for anyone to guess what Patterson would do in his potentially final conference game — including OSU coach Jim O'Brien.

"The guy I was concerned about more than anybody is Andrae Patterson because he had a tendency to slide in and out of things," O'Brien said. "With the way he played, our fears were well-founded."

Patterson scored at will, producing shot fakes and baseline drives that dazzled the 21,711 in attendance at the United Center as IU won 78-71. He finished with 25 points, a total more than his last three games combined.

The win set up a game between the Big Ten's most storied rivalries — IU and Purdue. The United Center buzzed with excitement prior to the tip-off, as if knowing this contest's competitiveness would match any game in the tournament.

The interstate rivals did not disappoint, producing 18 lead changes, 14 ties and a three-point score differential with 12 seconds remaining in the contest.

Down 74-71, first team All-Big Ten sophomore A.J. Guyton missed a three pointer allowing Purdue to win 76-71.

"(Guyton's) been playing well the whole season," said senior forward Charlie Miller. "If I was him, I would do the same thing. What beat us were the little things that added up.

They converted, and we didn't."

The loss sent 1U home back to Bloomington to ponder a seed in the NCAA post-season tournament. Although finishing behind Iowa for sixth place in the conference final standings, the NCAA committee favored the Hoosiers' difficult schedule and awarded the team a No. 7 seed against No. 10 University of Oklahoma in the East Regional at Washington, D.C. Iowa did not receive a hid to the NCAAs and lost in the first round of the National Invitational Tournament.

Aside from playing the Big 12 tournament runner up, IU also had to overcome the stigma of three straight first round NCAA Tournament losses. After building and then losing a 19point lead to the Sooners, IU's hopes to win a NCAA Tournament game looked bleak as the two teams entered overtime tied 80 a piece.

Before the overtime break, IU coach Bob Knight walked over to junior forward William Gladness and asked sternly, "Do you want to play or not?" Gladness nodded. Earlier in the game, Gladness, who had contributed seven points and six rebounds, missed an easy pass from Recker. Knight then benched Gladness the rest of the half. later in the overtime break, Knight repeated the question, and Gladness mumbled, "Yes." He then walked up to the scorer's table to check in.

After a lay up by Patterson and free throws by Guyton, Gladness dunked the ball to put IU up 86-80. The next play, Patterson threw a no-look pass to Recker, who then dished to an open Gladness. He did not miss the pass this time.

"That win was a big relief," said Patterson, who scored at least 20 points for the third straight game. "There was a lot of pressure going into this game to finally get past the first round. Get that monkey off our back."

Now IU needed to get past University of Connecticut to enter the Sweet Sixteen for the first time since 1994. In the way of that invitation to Greensboro, N.C. stood Big East Rookie of the Year Khalid El-Amin and Big East Player of the Year, sophomore forward Richard Hamilton.

IU contained these two players in the first half to build a 41-36 lead. After administering a clinic for most of the first half, IU let UCONN back into the game which led to an eventual Husky win, 78-68. El-Amin and Hamilton scored 22 and 23 points respectively.

Not playing 40 full minutes of basketball was the best way to describe the 1997-98 team. At times IU picked apart opponents' defenses using effective screens and shot selection. Yet the same team that averaged close to 50 percent from the field also tended to lose winnable games by letting the opponent hack into the contest.

"Ever since I was a freshman, we'd play a 20, 30, 35minute game," Miller said. "It was always the last minutes that killed us. - ri

Purdue and IU met for the third time this season in the second round of the Big Ten Tournament. After 18 lead changes in the tight game, the Boilermakers defeated the Hoosiers 76-71.

Above: Four Illinois fans cheer for their basketball team during the Illinois-Purdue semi-final game of the tournament. The Fighting Illini went on to lose the game to the Boilermakers in front of a full house at Chicago's United Center.

fter the lights dimmed in the United Center, the arena rested in a quiet peace. Only workers Aremained, slowly shuffling down the empty rows, picking up the scattered debris left by the fans. History had been made in front of almost 22,000 spectators on the hard wood floor, the nets long since cut down.

For four days, loud cheers and thunderous applause echoed off the walls of the United Center as the 11 teams of the Big Ten filed on and off the floor during the inaugural Big Ten Conference Tournament. In the end, the fans from Michigan cheered the loudest and their Michigan team played the hardest, defeating Purdue 76-67 in the championship game. Fans witnessed a historic moment when the 14 men from Michigan earned their place in the spotlight and the automatic bid to the NCAA tournament.

"It's really nice to be a part of history. We want to make sure we will be a very good representative for the Big Ten in the NCAA (tournament)," Michigan interim coach Brian Ellerbe said.

Yet, characteristic of any single-elimination tournament, not everyone could leave happy. Regular season cochampions Illinois and Michigan State left Chicago earlier than expected. With Michigan State's early loss, sophomore Big Ten Player of the Year Mateen Cleaves was not happy with

his team's performance, but felt the tournament would prove to be good preparation for the NCAA tournament.

"Now we know what we have to do when we're playing in a one-game elimination tournament. The season's not over, we have a long way to go," Cleaves said.

But the Minnesota Golden Gophers found success in postseason action, led by seniors Sam Jacobsen and Eric Harris, beginning a tournament run as the underdogs before losing their third game to the eventual champions. Wisconsin, a No. 10 seed, surprised everyone as freshman forward Maurice Linton hit a nine-foot jumper with 3.7 seconds left to beat the seventh-seeded Penn State Nittany Lions 52-51.

The excitement of post-season basketball descended on the host city of Chicago as the 11 teams of the Big Ten exploded into the arena. Finally the Big Ten Conference was ready to indulge in the post-season madness like many of the other conferences. Some coaches of the Big Ten hoped the single elimination format would make their team's tournament tough. While other coaches just hoped for the miracle which would give their team a shot at receiving consideration for a post-season tournament hid. But officials of the Big Ten had a much simpler reason in mind for creating the post-season tournament — money, and lots of it.

First round action paired Minnesota against Northwestern, Penn State against Wisconsin and Indiana against Ohio State.

Minnesota and Northwestern split the two conference games, and each team arrived hoping to post a second win and advance to the second round of the tournament. Yet, the combined play of junior Quincy Lewis and Jacobsen proved to be too much for the Wildcats to handle, as Minnesota advanced with 64-56 win.

Even the sixth-seeded Indiana Hoosiers had trouble facing an Ohio State team they swept in the regular season. With four minutes remaining the Hoosiers had a 17-point lead over the Buckeyes, only to watch it dwindle to only four points with 18 seconds remaining. The Hoosiers escaped with a 7871 win and would meet interstate rival Purdue in second round action.

After IU's win, coach Knight reiterated his feelings on the Big Ten Tournament for members of the media. Knight and Minnesota coach Clem Haskins were the only two coaches to adamantly oppose the post-season tournament.

"The thing you have to understand about my stance in the Big Ten Tournament is that I would vote against it at 8:30 tonight. And yet I had my say and conveyed the reasons why we shouldn't have the tournament," Knight said. "The majority of the people involved wanted to have the tournament and that's the way it should be. Once that was decided, then we have got figure out the best way to approach the tournament."

In second round action, the five top-seeded teams, who received byes during the first round of play, took to the floor.

The Iowa Hawkeyes faced off against Michigan and stand-out player Robert Traylor, a junior center. The Wolverines won the only meeting between the teams during the regular season, 80-66, and pulled off a convincing 11-point victory to win their first game of the tournament.

Minnesota surprised Michigan State with a 76-73 win over the Spartans, after losing both games of the regular season.

Michigan State coach Tom Izzo commented that the loss early in the tournament could prove to harm its standing when the selection committee met to decide which teams would receive bids for the NCAA tournament.

"It's damaging, especially from the media. You're only as good as your last game." Izzo said. "The Big Ten Tournament is great. We needed the Big Ten Tournament as a conference."

Even Illinois, regular season co-champions, almost followed the same path as Michigan State, sliding by with only a five-point win over Wisconsin.

Yet, the premiere game of Friday's action took place when IU and Purdue took the floor, meeting for only the third time on neutral territory. Because of the Big Ten Tournament, one of the greatest rivalries in basketball history had been brought to the fans who never experienced the excitement and lastsecond heroics which usually concluded the game.

"You could feel the electricity that was out there, but it's nothing compared to when we have (the game) in Bloomington or Lafayette," senior Andrae Patterson said after the game.

The Boilermakers left the floor with a 76-71 victor y over the Hoosiers, earning a spot in one of the semi-final games on Saturday. A disappointed Hoosier team left Chicago wondering how the NCAA selection committee would view its loss when reviewing its status.

Unfortunately Saturday, Minnesota's cinderella run through the tournament hit a road block — Michigan. In the end, the Wolverines capitalized on all of Minnesota's mistakes, winning the game 85-69. Haskins praised the play of Michigan teammates, Traylor and senior Maceo Baston, and also said fatigue played an obvious role in the loss.

Minnesota's outstanding post-season play accomplished one of the basic goals of the post-season tournament: to give a team another chance to succeed, leaving the NCAA or NIT selection committee with chance to reward a team which might have faltered early in the season. Haskins knew his team would not receive a bid to the NCAA tournament, but felt his team's play in the latter half of the season and the Big Ten Tournament would earn it a NIT bid.

"I think without a doubt we should be in the NIT," Haskins said. "If we didn't I would be very disappointed."

Although Illinois played well enough to ensure an NCAA tournament bid, the Fighting Illini lost convincingly to Purdue by 21 points in the second semi-final game of the afternoon.

However, Purdue proved to he a tournament-tough team as they made it to the final round of the tournament, hopefully enhancing the team's seeding in the NCAA tournament.

"From the way I see it, (the tournament) has been a good thing and hopefully we can come back and use it as a positive thing," Purdue coach Gene Keady said. Keady felt the tournament would prove to be a good way to make his Boilermakers tournament tough, preparing them for the intensity of the NCAA tournament.

But in the final game of the tournament, Purdue was not tough enough to drive past the Michigan Wolverines, losing 76-67. Michigan's Traylor and Jerod Ward, Purdue's Brad Miller and Mike Robinson, and Minnesota's Quincy Lewis made up the composition of the All-Tournament Team, with Traylor named the Most Outstanding Player for the tournament.

At the end of the championship game the Michigan players celebrated at center court, while Big Ten officials kept fans from swarming onto the court. Traylor proved to be undeterred sliding under the ropes and jumping over the

press tables to give his grandmother a hug. Soon the rest of the Michigan team stood amidst the fans who had supported them all weekend.

At the post-game press conference Traylor sat calmly at the table with four of his teammates and Ellerbe. The new hat, which read "Big Ten Champions" had been turned backward the tag still hanging off the side. Around his neck rested one of the nets which the team had just recently cut from the rim.

"It just feels so good to win the first-ever Big Ten Tournament Championship, - Traylor said with a smile. "Some times things are just out of the ordinary and this is one of them.And something out of the ordinary did occur in Chicago in March of 1998. After 101 years, the Big Ten Conference decided to begin March Madness a little early. The success of the inaugural Big Ten Conference Tournament would be remembered by the faces which mirrored defeat, the smiles which represented surprise and the cheers of the fans which would all be laid to rest until all 11 teams met again under the same roof.

fter picked by the media to finish ninth in the Big Ten in a pre-season poll, many A people doubted the Indiana University women's basketball team would stand a chance — but the Hoosiers never lost faith.

IU proved its critics wrong with a third-place conference finish.

"We didn't expect this, and I'm surprised that the other coaches didn't expect it," coach Jim Izard said.

The Hoosiers finished the season at the 19-10 mark, 10-6 in the Big Ten, winning seven of the last 10 conference games.

In the regular-season finale at Michigan State, senior center Quacy Barnes tied her career high of 29 points in an 83-79 victory over the Spartans. Barnes became the 10th player in IU history to record 500 points in a season. She finished the game 12-for-13, shooting 92 percent, breaking the school record for shooting percentage in a game.

More importantly, the victory seemed to strengthen IU's case for a bid to the NCAA Tournament and high

seed in the inaugural Women's Big Ten Tournament.

The win over Michigan State gave the Hoosiers a No. 4 seed in the conference tournament, played at the RCA Dome in Indianapolis.

The Hoosiers finally began to think their dream of playing in the post-season NCAA tournament could become a reality.

But the path to a tourney bid proved to be a rocky one.

In their attempt to win the crown, the Hoosiers took on the challenge of a tougher non-conference season.

According to the Collegian Basketball News, the Hoosiers' non-conference schedule strength ranked fourth in the nation.

November 28-30 at the Hawai'i Airlines Rainbow Whine Classic, IU fell to No. 20 University of Alabama and No. 19 University of Hawai'i. IU then suffered a loss to No. 17 Western Kentucky University on the road.

The Hoosiers returned home only to lose again, this time to Colorado State University. IU finally posted a win against University of Evansville. In the 79-63 victory, Barnes scored her 1,000 career point. continued

During winter break, the Hoosiers found themselves surrounded by controversy and scrutiny from the national media.

Junior guard Dani Thrush had been convicted of an assault stemming from an incident occurring during the summer of 1997. The victim Thrush assaulted with a beer bottle received 16 stitches and spent time in the hospital. USA Today and Sports Illustrated criticized Izard for not publicly reprimanding Thrush.

According to Sports Illustrated, an IU spokesman said, "We handled this internally, and we are satisfied with how we have resolved this transgression."

At the end of winter break, the Hoosiers opened the conference season with three consecutive wins for the best start in IU history. Then the Hoosiers fell apart and became the victim of a three-game losing streak. A turnaround began with the help of junior forward Cindy Kerns.

After a pre-season slump, Kerns stepped up during conference play to average 58 percent from the field and 8.5 points per game.

"It's like you've got two Cindy Kerns," Izard said "You've got Cindy Kerns pre-Big Ten who wasn't producing anything, and then all of the sudden, the light came on."

Kern attributed her change to sitting on the bench and watching the team lose.

"It didn't bother me when I didn't play, and we won," Kerns said. "It started to bother me when 1 didn't play, and we lost."

IU fought back.

Another turning point came in the 78-73 loss to Michigan Jan. 16 at Assembly Hall. With a record attendance of 3,213 fans, IU came out flat and ended the first half trailing by 17 points. The Hoosiers cut Michigan's lead to three in the middle of the second half, only to come up short in the last six minutes.

After the loss, the Hoosiers had a team meeting that helped propel the turnaround.

"People were saying that we were in big trouble, being (33) in the Big Ten," junior guard Kristi Green said. "The turning point for our effort is just something we want to build on."

The Hoosiers rebounded to defeat No. 6 Illinois, 80-67, at home. After six minutes of even play, the Hoosiers went on a 15-2 run. But the Illini slowly cut the lead to five. Then, IU delivered nine unanswered baskets. The Hoosier victory ended the Illini's 10-game winning streak. Sophomore guard Kameelah Morgan was instrumental in the win, sinking 12 consecutive free throws.

The Hoosiers fell by seven points at Iowa, but managed to upset intrastate rival, Purdue, 85-71 at home. With five

minutes in the game remaining, Green hit a 27-foot jumper with five seconds on the shot clock. Unable to make a comeback, Purdue lost.

The Hoosiers next handed Wisconsin a defeat. Thrush carried the team to the 56-55 victory against the Badgers.

Thrush's passing ability hurt the Badgers and her driving ability killed them, as she totaled 18 points.

"Dani made some Michael Jordan-like shots," Badger coach Jane Albright-Dieterle said. "She hit shots when they had to have a shot."

The Hoosiers protected their home court well, losing in Assembly Hall only to Colorado State and Michigan. IU secured 13 victories at home — setting a new Hoosier record.

IU hoped to hit new heights in the Big Ten tournament.

"For most of the year, we were all on the same page," Green said. "We had a common goal to make it to the (NCAA) tournament and win the Big Ten. It is going to be a total team effort to get there.-

Women disappointed with NCAA slight, but perform well in the NIT

As GOOD

as it GETS

By Dawn Reiss

he Indiana University women's basketball team had hoped for a different ending to their season. The T Hoosiers concluded the regular season 21-12, 10-6 in Big Ten, but failed to get the support they needed from the selection committee to reach the NCAA tournament. IU expected to receive an invitation to the Big Dance after finishing in a tie for third in the Big Ten with Michigan and Purdue, both of which received a bid. This year marked the Hoosiers' best season since they were Big Ten co-champions in 1983.

But the selection committee thought differently and gave the at-large bid to Wisconsin instead in the West bracket. "(The Hoosiers) hadn't distinguished themselves outside of the conference," said Jean Ponsetto, NCAA committee selection chairman. "Although those games were competitive, it wasn't enough.The Hoosiers collected victories against three nationally ranked teams, No. 6 Illinois, No. 23 Purdue and No. 15 Wisconsin. Unfortunately, IU could not defeat No. 17 Western Kentucky University, No. 19 University of Hawaii and No. 20 University of Alabama before conference play began. The Hoosiers' 65-56 loss to an emotional Purdue squad in the quarterfinal round of the Big Ten Tournament proved to be another loss which hurt the team's selection chances.

Early in the battle it appeared IU would walk away with a victory against the rival Boilermakers.

Senior center Quacy Barnes made her presence known early in the game, making it her 30th game to score in double digits, finding the bottom of the net in 15 of her 22 shots in the first half. But Purdue clawed back to end the half only down by six points. Then the Hoosiers turned ice cold on their offense due to the lack of execution. IU made 28 percent of its shots in the second half, while Purdue made 50 percent.

As the Boilermakers came back, they made key three-point shots to win the game.

Despite the early loss in the Big Ten Tournament, the Hoosiers still thought they would be going to the Big Dance.

"We should be in the NCAA tournament," said IU coach Tom Izard. "What (the tournament loss) does is affect our seeding. We played our way into the NCAA tournament during the regular season."

After being snubbed by the NCAA selection committee, the Hoosiers received an invitation to play in the Women's National Invitational Tournament.

"Everybody knows we would rather play in the NCAA, but it just didn't happen," junior guard Kristi Green said.

Junior guard Dani Thrush lost the ball against Xavier University in IU's first game of the National Invitational Tournament. First round action in the tournament began March 13 for the Hoosiers with their 80-74 win over Xavier

The Hoosiers fell in the semi-final round of the WNIT with a 70-42 loss to Penn State. Penn State handily shut down IU's offense, not allowing any member to score more than 10 points. The Hoosiers also came up empty-handed on the free throw line, not able to make a single shot throughout the game. Ironically, IU ranked No. 8 in the nation from the free throw line with a 75 percent average. The Hoosiers also only shot 20 percent from the perimeter.

"I was shocked we lost so badly," freshman guard Jill Reynolds said. "I thought we could really come in and beat them."

Penn State out-rebounded the Hoosiers 48-33 and held them to nine offensive rebounds compared to Penn State's 22.

To top it off, IU had foul trouble. Senior center Quacy Barnes and junior forward Summer Maines fouled out of the game.

"Quacy's our inside game and our go-to player," Reynolds said. "It really hurt our game."

This season, IU split the series with Penn State earning its win at home. The Hoosiers had never won in Happy Valley.

IU defeated Xavier University and the University of Toledo en route to the loss against Penn State.

In the first round, IU defeated Xavier at Assembly Hall, 8074. The Hoosiers used balanced scoring and key three-point shots to win. IU shot 51 percent and never allowed the Musketeers to take the lead.

"I wanted to prove something," Barnes said. "I have selfpride, and I was begging for the ball."

Advancing to second-round action against Toledo was just the opposite. Playing at Savage Hall, the Hoosiers won 61-60.

In the final seconds of the game, junior guard Dani Thrush shot two clutch free throws to score a victory.

IU shot 46 percent from the field while holding the Rockets to just 29 percent field goal shooting. For the fourth consecutive game, Barnes led the Hoosiers with 16 points and seven rebounds. Honegger collected 13 points and six assists while Thrush added 11 points.

In the end, the Hoosiers found the support they lacked earlier to help win the game.

"We just really hung in," Izard said. "Quacy fouled out and you basically have your nucleus for next year stepping up and winning the basketball game for us — that is an accomplishment."

Men's tennis team works to improve

STRIVING

f o r SUCCESS

By Jennifer Fish and Brian Mitchell romise and determination filled the faces of the members of Indiana University's men's tennis p team when the players began the season in October. The team, a combination of youth and veteran players, looked to improve upon last season's fourthplace finish at the Big Ten Championships.

With the loss of the top three players from the 19961997 season, Coach Ken Hydinger, recruited four freshmen to add to the lineup. But the veteran leadership wasn't enough, as the youthful Hoosiers finished 0-3 in the Big Ten Tournament, recording an eighth-place finish.

In the preseason media guide Coach Hydinger commented on the Hoosiers' lack of experience.

"Because of the their youth, this team will be tested as never before," Hydinger said. "We need to be as solid as possible. To succeed in this league we're going to have to be in excellent physical condition, be mentally tough, eliminate our weaknesses, develop strength and play smart."

To offset the youth and inexperience, Hydinger looked for leadership from the upperclassmen and found the trait in junior Scott Lippitt. The former walk-on represented the heart of IU's team along with seniors Derek Pope and Andrew Held. Now, a solid and mature player, Lippitt finished the season with a 23-8 record while playing in the No. 3 spot. His record was only matched by freshman Ian Arons, who proved his ability at the collegiate level early in his career with the Hoosiers.

Lippitt and Held proved to be a dynamic duo on the court in doubles competition, leading the team by winning over 20 matches. III also honored Held by naming him the Scholastic Achievement Award recipient for his efforts in the classroom along with on the court.

And the team tried, playing hard on the court, but the 9-15 record overall, and the 4-9 record in the Big Ten proved the Hoosiers could not handle the challenging schedule. A season pitting the Hoosiers against teams like Illinois and Northwestern, which returned many of the top players and were ranked among the nation's Top 25. But the team remained positive before the beginning of the Big Ten Tournament.

"We need to continue to improve," Lippitt said. "I still think we have a chance at the Big Ten title."

320 Sports

IU faced Northwestern twice during the season, both meetings resulting in a loss. During the first meeting IU lost 5-2, with the lone victory in single competition coming from Arons' steady play in the No. 6 position.

"It was a tough match, but I really didn't think I was going to lose the entire time," Arons said. "I was hitting the ball well in the first set, but my opponent broke me early, and he held serve the rest of the set. I think after I won the second set, there was a big change of momentum. I was really up, and he seemed like he was feeling really down."

The second time, the Hoosiers and the Wildcats met on neutral territory during the second round of the Big Ten Championships held April 30-May 3 in Champaign, Ill. Entering the tournament as the No. 7 seed, the Hoosiers received a first round bye before taking action against the No. 2-seeded Wildcats. The Hoosiers stumbled, recording only one point from Lippitt's win in the No. 3 singles match. The loss to Northwestern knocked the Hoosiers out of contention for placing in the top four spots.

IU would next face the Minnesota Golden Gophers. playing to secure a seventh-place finish at the championships. IU closed out the regular season with a 6-1 loss to the Golden Gophers at Minnesota.

Determined not to let history repeat itself, the Hoosiers started the day with wins in the No. 1 and No. 2 doubles matches. The No. 1 doubles team of Pope And sophomore Gabriel Montilla won 6-1, and the No. 2 team of Lippitt and Held won 8-2. In singles action, IU's lone point came from Lippitt's win. Minnesota defeated the Hoosiers 4-2.

As the Hoosiers clinched eighth place at the championships, the three-day nightmare finally ended with a 4-3 loss to Michigan State, as did IU's season.

Scoring for the Hoosiers in doubles play, Held and Lippitt won 8-0, and Lippitt, sophomore George McGill and Arons won their matches in singles competition.

But as a team, the Hoosiers could not find a way to win the close matches, and the season came to an abrupt conclusion marked by four straight losses.

Unlike the previous season the players knew their dreams of receiving an invite to the NCAA tournament would remain unrealized. 15

Despite low ranking, women capture Big Ten. title

BEATING

the ODDS

By Susie Zaragoza

he odds were stacked against the IU women's tennis team when they entered the Big Ten Tournament TApril 30 with the No. 6 seed, but head coach Lin Loring knew that things could fall in his team's favor.

"Even though we were the sixth seed, we knew we had a win in the regular season against the No. 1 seed Wisconsin, and the other teams that had beaten us had been very close matches," Loring said. "We felt there were three or four teams that could win the tournament, us being one of them."

Loring's confidence was assured throughout the tournament, as the women won the Big Ten Championship for the 15th time in 19 years, defeating No. 4 seed Michigan 4-3 in the conference finals. The Hoosiers became the first No. 6 seed to win the tournament.

The team's low ranking in the tournament was due to a regular season marred by injuries and inconsistent play. The women finished the regular season with a record of 12-10, 6-4 in the Big Ten, but most of those losses were close matches against the toughest teams in the nation. Six of the team's 10 losses were matches decided by one point.

Adding to the frustration of the season were injuries suffered by key players, which prompted constant reshuffling in the line-up. "We had some different people in and out of the line-up," Loring said. Out of the losses we had in the conference, we only had our full lineup in there for one of them."

With a No. 6 seed, the women missed a bye into the second round of the Big Ten Tournament and had to play in the opening round for one of the first times since Loring became IU's coach in 1977. By tourney time, though, the women were riding momentum inspired by their regained health, which they felt could take them through the four games to the championship.

"We happened to get everybody healthy and everybody playing well on the same weekend, which happened to be the weekend of the Big Ten Tournament.

And that's basically the only time that it really counts," Loring said.

The Hoosiers swept last-place Penn State 5-0 in the opening round of the tournament, the same team they defeated in their final match of the regular season. They faced a more challenging opponent in the next round May

1, the No. 3 seed Northwestern Wildcats, who defeated IU 4-3 in regular season play. This time, the Hoosiers prevailed, sending the Wildcats packing with a 4-1 win.

Saturday May 2, the women played in-state rival Purdue, defeating the No. 2-seeded Boilermakers in a tough match the Hoosiers pulled off 4-3. The win advanced IU to the championship game against Michigan, who had upset the No. 1 seed Wisconsin that Saturday.

The women's run to the championship was almost complete, but they first had to outlast a tough opponent and the fatigue that had begun to set in. The Michigan Wolverines had long been a nemesis of the Hoosiers, defeating IU in the championship game of 1997's Big Ten Tournament and March 28, in a 4-3 win over IU during the regular season.

Exhaustion was also beginning to factor into the Hoosiers' play, as they competed in a grueling set of four games in four days. But their conference winning streak gave the women the confidence boost they needed to defeat the Wolverines.

"We were extremely confident that we could do it, probably because we had had such a tough draw," senior Correne Stout, the No. 1 singles player, said. "We were all in high spirits going into it, and we felt we wanted it more than they did."

"Of our quarter-final, semi-final and final matches, Michigan turned out to be the easiest match," Loring said.

"We handled them pretty convincingly."

The 4-3 win over Michigan Sunday, May 3 capped the women's weekend romp through the tournament. It was Stout's first Big Ten title as a player, and she said she was happy to uphold IU's winning tradition.

"Coach Loring has never graduated a player without them winning a Big Ten title, and I was glad I didn't break that tradition," Stout said.

In the first round of NCAA Championship play, the Hoosiers knocked out Purdue 5-3. The tables turned in second-round action when the Hoosiers faced No. 1 seed UCLA. With a score of 5-0, UCLA advanced in the tournament and sent the Hoosiers back to Bloomington.

Despite the final loss of the season, the Hoosiers beat the odds and proved that a 17-11 overall record was plenty good enough to win a much-deserved title. El

--Men's golf team captures Big Ten Title

SWINGING t 0 SUCCESS

By Jennifer Fish

t the conclusion of the Wolverine Invitational, the Indiana University men's golf team finished with A a three-day stroke total of 866 and fifth place. The invitational, played at Michigan's par-71, 6,700 yard course, brought the Big Ten together as a preview for the upcoming Big Ten Championships May 8-10.

After a disinal season, in which the Hoosiers only netted two top-five finishes leading up to the invitational, the fifth-place finish led to celebration as the team tallied the best three-day stroke total for the season. Senior Randy Leen tied for second with a three-round total of 207, sixunder-par and a career-low round of 65 in the second day of competition at the invitational. Leen's round of 65 tied the record set in 1989 by Dan Olsen for the lowest single round score in Hoosier history.

Thus the men left for East Lansing, Mich. and the Big Ten Championships with hope and a fighting spirit nineyear coach Sam Carmichael searched for in his players faces all season. A top-five finish at Big Ten Championships was within reach. The team arrived at the par-72 Forest Akers West Golf Course ready for action. At the end of the second day of competition the Hoosiers had taken the lead over the perennial-golf-powerhouse Ohio State. From that point on, IU never looked back pulling out a three-shot victory over the Buckeyes. Ohio State had won the conference title for three consecutive years and with the Hoosiers poor regular season, it seemed the sixyear drought without winning a conference title would become seven.

But a miracle could happen. "(OSU) has pounded us for three and a half years," senior Josh Brewer said. "(Beating) them makes it just a little sweeter."

And sweet the victory proved to he for seniors Leen and Brewer. Junior Corey Sullivan, sophomore John Barry and redshirt freshman Steven Wheatcroft joined the two seniors on the links, providing a solid team base.

The senior leadership proved to be instrumental in keeping the younger players' confidence level high.

"It's nice to know you've got those two horses (Leen and Brewer) ahead of you," Wheatcroft said.

Sullivan helped lead the team as the surprise player,

who fired a two-over-par total of 290 and tied for second place with teammate Brewer. Sullivan walked on to the team in 1996, did not participate in any tournament in 1997, and only played in 12 of 31 rounds during the season. Yet, in second place going into the final two rounds of the tournament, Sullivan did not falter under the pressure, instead he maintained his steady play of the first two rounds.

As the last player on the course, Sullivan realized the team won the title when he reached the 18th green and they greeted him with friendly smiles.

"I knew we had it won if I didn't do anything stupid," Sullivan said. "It was hard to pull the trigger on that last putt because I was feeling so many emotions."

Also finishing in the tie for second, three shots behind Ryan Armour of Ohio State, Brewer carded a season-low 68 in the third round. With a 75.0 stroke average, Brewer was named to the All-Big Ten Team along with teammate Leen.

Leen's performance at Big Tens did not equal his finish at the Wolverine Invitational, but his 292 four-round total captured fifth place. Leen, one of the best golfers to ever play for IU, completed his final season as a Hoosier with a 72.4 stroke average and a top-five finish in four invitationals, receiving medalist honors at The Nelson.

Leen, three-time Big Ten Player of the Year, also qualified for the NCAA Regionals in San Antonio, Texas.

Six individuals competed for the two qualifying spots for the NCAA Championships. Leen shot 74, 70 and 80 in his last three collegiate rounds, compiling a 224 total which would not be good enough to qualify.

But the golfers did not receive the only honors as Carmichael was named Big Ten Coach of the Year in his last season with the men. Assistant coach Mike Mayer had been named the new head coach for the 1998-99 season, while Carmichael would remain the women's coach.

IU's victory at Big Ten Championships ended Carmichael's career with the male Hoosiers on a pleasant note.

"What a wonderful way to go out," Carmichael said.

"There's nothing like it."

Barry echoed the Coach's sentiments. "I've never played so bad and felt so happy," Barry said. "We really wanted to send Coach off like this."

n the fall the women's golf team began the season with two goals: to win a Big Ten Championship and to I advance to the finals of the NCAA Championships. Eight months later the team walked down the rolling fairways of the University Ridge Golf Course in Verona, Wis. in a face-off against the nation's elite.

Juniors Erin Carney, Michelle Hatfield and senior Jenny Gray led the Hoosiers down the home stretch in the final four rounds of NCAA Championship competition. Junior Jennifer Seger and sophomore Sarni Montgomery rounded out the rest of the team.

Carrying the bright red golf bags they strode from tee to green with a sense of purpose and confidence. As the winner of six invitationals throughout the season, the Big Ten Championship, and a tie for third at the NCAA East Regional — the Hoosiers had reason to believe a top-five finish at the NCAAs awaited them.

"It's been such a good season," Carney said. "There's no pressure on us and no reason to think negatively.

Everybody's been working hard, and we expect to play well."

And upon arriving in Wisconsin, the women started out hot, recording a 284-stroke total, four-under-par and seven strokes behind the eventual champion Arizona State University. Gray led the Hoosiers with a career-low 67, as she began to close out her final season as a Hoosier.

Unfortunately the solid pace the Hoosiers set at the beginning of the four-round competition refused to linger, and the team failed to break 300 in the remaining three rounds. A final stroke total of 1,209 captured 13th place for the team, 59 strokes behind Arizona State.

"We didn't play nearly as well the last three days," Carney said. "Our expectations were high, and we just didn't perform.

The conditions got tougher but not that much tougher."

Carney, the 1998 Big Ten Athlete of the Year, had the lowest four-day total for the Hoosiers. Scores of 74, 72, 77 and 73 solidified a tie for 20th for the junior phenom.

The youngest member of the Hoosiers line-up, Montgomery, said she did not play as assertively as the tournament continued — a common problem, which resulted in errant shots and missed putts.

"I wasn't as aggressive," she said. "I need to continue to work on my short game (to compensate) for when I'm not striking the ball as well."

Aggressive play was not a problem with the career-low 67

start for Gray, but she struggled for the rest of the week, carding rounds of 80, 79 and 75 to finish tied for 34th in the field. Gray sunk the last putt of her college career on the parfive 18th hole for a par.

"I realized it was the last putt I would hit (in college competition), and I was sure hoping it would go in," Gray said.

Yet Gray's last season as a Hoosier began with two second-place finishes at the Beacon Woods Invitational and the Hawkeye Invitational. With a 76.3 stroke average, Gray finished in third place at Big Ten Championships, one stroke behind teammate Carney and Stacey Bergman of Iowa.

Carney and Bergman both completed the event with a 299 stroke total and tied for medalist honors.

Aside from securing medalist honors at Big Tens, Carney was the medalist of the Wolverine Invitational Oct. 4-5 in Ann Arbor, Mich. Carney also became the second women's golfer in IU history to be named first team All-American. She carded her best three-round performance of the year at the NCAA East Regional in Durham, N.C. May 7-9. The two-under-par, three-round total of 217 resulted in a tie for second place.

Leading up to the NCAA East Regional the Hoosiers traveled to University Park, Pa. for Big Ten Championships.

On Penn State's par-72 Blue Course, the team captured the lead after the second day of competition, six shots over Ohio State. And at the end of the four-round tournament the women finished with their lowest four-round total of 1,196 strokes, 13 shots ahead of the second-place Buckeyes.

Winning the tournament marked the seventh Big Ten Championship in the last 12 years for the Hoosiers, and 18year coach Sam Carmichael received the honor of Big Ten Coach of the Year also for the seventh time. On the individual level, Hatfield, with a 77.1 stroke average, and Seger, with a 77.6 stoke average, joined teammates Carney and Gray on the All-Big Ten team. Gray, a former Big Ten Freshman of the Year, had been named to the All-Big Ten team all four seasons with the Hoosiers.

In a program with a long history as a nationally recognized team the women qualified for the NCAA Tournament eight times since 1985. The fifth-place finish in 1995 was the best finish ever for the team, but the 13th-place finish this season proved that the Hoosiers deserved to be taken seriously.

"Every time we're on the leaderboard, (southern) teams are surprised to see Indiana up there," Gray said. "We've always known we can play." In

Baseball completes Zediocre season

BREAKING EVEN

By Kathryn Knapp ntering the new baseball season, 15 newcomers joined 11 letterwinners to make up the Hoosier squad. Coach F4Bob Morgan felt this was an opportunity to take advantage of the youth movement on his team. Players practiced and learned along the way, but youth proved to be not enough as the Hoosiers ended the season barely breaking even, 29-27.

"When you have a younger team, you're going to have to be a little more patient and understand they are young, and they haven't been out there," Morgan said. "One thing you know about our team is we always play hard, we'll always be fundamentally sound, and we come to play. If you do that, you give yourself a chance to win."

The season started off slowly for the Hoosiers as they lost the first two matches of the season at Showdown in the Desert in Phoenix, Ariz. The Hoosiers bounced back when they faced Indiana Wesleyan, winning the two-game series.

But the baseball season was a long one, lasting from February to May, and with every two wins seemed to come two losses. The wins and losses fluctuated, and the team was in search of one thing — a chance to compete at the Big Ten level successfully. In the 1996 season, the Hoosiers won their first-ever hid to the NCAA Tournament, and five Hoosiers were drafted in the free agent amateur draft.

The 1997 season fell short of expectations, and in 1998 all they wanted was a chance to prove themselves again.

March 25, IU faced Franklin College on its home turf of Sembower Field. The game marked an important one since it was the last one before the start of the Big Ten season. IU trounced Franklin 16-0 as five pitchers combined for a sevenhit shutout. IU's scoring began in the second inning with freshman shortstop Ryan Schade's two-run single and did not stop until the game was over.

"Today was a good tuneup and a chance to get some younger guys at-bats," Schade said. "I think everyone's excited and ready to go for this weekend."

Big Ten season kicked off for the Hoosiers at 3 p.m.

Friday, March 27 at Sembower Field when they faced Penn State. IU split the four-game series with Penn State. One of its victories included the Hoosiers' highest scoring game of the season 23-17.

IU's next Big Ten matchup featured rival Purdue. The fourgame series would be played at Indianapolis' Victory Field and in West Lafayette. As always everyone was psyched for the IU/Purdue matchup. Senior first baseman Roger Rodeheaver grew up in Lafayette, so he always anticipated the yearly matchup.

Baseball 329

"Growing up (in Lafayette), I can tell you there's no love between IU and Purdue," Rodeheaver said. "But I'm a Hoosier now, those days are behind me. The rivalry is something that you try to forget about, but its always in the hack of your mind.

"It's not so much a revenge factor as it is that it's the seniors' last chance at playing Purdue."

Once again the Hoosiers split the series, so no one gained bragging rights. IU continued to win and lose games against Big Ten opponents, but beginning April 17, the Hoosiers came alive. IU swept a four-game series against Northwestern, improving their Big Ten record to 10-6 and

330 Sports

placing them third in the conference.

"We took a step in the right direction toward getting to the Big Ten playoffs," Junior Brandt Childs said. "We just have to come out the next couple of weeks and play hard. We know it's going to be tough, and we're going to have to battle like we did this weekend."

And battle they did, but it was not enough as they went 4-8 in their remaining Big Ten games, not good enough to send them to post-season action. So the men played hard, they played tough; and they proved they were worthy of a chance.

Youth did prevail at times, and at others it impaired the team.El

Softball team places last in rebuilding year

OUT AT HOME

By Jeff Fleischer and Alice Budisatrijo

fter a solid 1997 season that saw the team remainin contention until the season's final weekend and A finish fifth in the conference. IU softball expected another strong campaign in 1998. But inexperience and a general lack of offense hurt the Hoosiers most of the season, as they finished last in the Big Ten with a 7-16 conference record, 13-31-1 overall.

The season kicked off on a high note as the team pounded Baylor University 8-2 at the Southwestern Louisiana Tournament Feb. 21. But the next two tournament games saw the Hoosiers drop decisions of 4-0 and 7-0 to the University of Southwestern Louisiana and Baylor, respectively.

IU next participated in the annual NFCA Kickoff Classic in Columbus, Ga. The tournament began with another shutout loss, this time 5-0 to California State UniversityNorthridge. The Hoosiers played well in a 3-2 loss to No. 10 Florida State University, then split the tournament's final four games. They heat the University of Massachusetts 6-5, lost 4-1 to University of Florida and 9-1 to conference rival Minnesota. The team closed out the competition with a 5-2 win over Canisius College, in which junior Khara Good and senior Monica Armendarez each drove in two runs.

IU fared no better at the Fresno State Tournament March 5-8. The team pounded highly regarded UCLA 6-2. But it then lost hack-to-back shutouts to Kansas and Fresno and fell 4-2 to Tennessee.

An initial homestand before the start of conference play resulted in a 2-4-1 record, culminating in two losses to Ball State University. "We are young and have a lot to work on, and it only gets tough from here on out," IU coach Diane Stephenson said after the Ball State games.

Things became tougher when the conference season began since the Big Ten consistently ranked among the nation's strongest conferences. The conference schedule opened with No. 2 Michigan, which swept the Hoosiers 7-6, 12-5 and 7-0. The positive side saw III battle hack in the first game with four runs in the seventhinning, which made the Wolverines sweat. "That's a really big boost for our team, especially if you talk about effort," Stephenson said.

Softball 333

The team produced a strong effort in defeating Ohio State 8-2 April 1. Armendarez hit her fifth home run, and sophomore Teresa Martinez earned the win by holding the Buckeyes to six hits. But OSU took the second game of the doubleheader as pitcher Kristi Martin struck out eight Hoosiers.

A three-game sweep at the hands of Northwestern proved another setback. But the Hoosiers split a doubleheader with powerful Michigan State April 8, winning 6-1 and losing 8-2.

"I think we did a really good job in the first game," Stephenson said. "We really needed a win. In the second game, we had several breakdowns and mental errors."

After Martinez led IU past Wisconsin 8-1 April 11, the team embarked on an eight-game losing streak including defeats to Wisconsin, University of Notre Dame, Purdue and No. 22 Iowa. After falling behind 5-2, IU managed to win the final

IU also won its next game, topping No. 16 Minnesota 2-1.

3ut the Gophers won the next two 6-1 and 8-2. That series narked the final home appearance for seniors Armendarez, shley Gayer and Trina Valencia. "We'll practice here for the •est of the week, but it's tough knowing we're never going .0 play here again," Gayer said.

The season finished on a high note, as the Hoosiers took a doubleheader at Penn State 5-0 and 4-3. But the team finished last in the Big Ten. Still, several players enjoyed strong seasons. Catcher Gayer made the second team All-Big Ten in her final season, and left with a .266 career average. "I think Ashley has probably improved in every area," Stephenson said.

"Physically she's a lot better; she's a lot tougher mentally."

Second baseman Valencia earned praise from the coaching staff for her versatility, as she played all but two positions during her IU career. She consistently ranked among the team leaders in runs scored and runs batted in while playing well defensively.

Third baseman Armendarez earned third team AllAmerican honors and broke the school records for career home runs and career doubles. This year was my best year," Armendarez said.

Over the summer, she played professionally for the Carolina Diamonds. Despite her impressive resume, which also included the IU single-season record for batting average, set in 1997, Armendarez left with one regret.

"I would've liked to win the Big Ten," she said. "And in the back of your head, you always want to win the Big Ten, win the region and go on to the World Series."in

MOVING INDOORS

By Kathryn Voss and Matt Zimmerman

tom the outside, Gladstein Fieldhouse, the home of the Indiana University track and field F teams, resembled just another building withstanding the elements. But during the indoor track and field season, the stadium turned into a veritable pressure cooker of raw power, sweat and excitement.

Turning on the power, the men's team started the season strong. The men defeated the Michigan Wolverines and the Ohio State Buckeyes in their first two meets of the season.

Although the women's team struggled at the beginning of the season, by the third meet the women arrived in winning form to cruise to victory over the University of Notre Dame.

Throughout the season both teams witnessed exceptional perfonuances from individuals in a variety of events. Senior Ty Yeager led IU at the Hoosier Hills Open Feb. 21. Not only did Yeager improve his NCAA provisional time in the 55-meter hurdles with a personal record of 7.24 seconds, he also earned a spot in IC's record hooks with the fourth fastest time in the event.

Coach Sam Bell said the Big Ten Championships proved to be the most imp(mant event of the year for the Hoosiers. Although, the men's team finished seventh overall, several individuals turned in outstanding performances.

In the middle distances, junior Tom Chorny continued his remarkable season by placing fourth in both the 300-meter and the 5,000-meter events. Sprinter Russell Brooks secured a second-place finish in the 200-meter dash with a time of 21.59 while juggling an illness. Brooks expressed surprise and elation with his finish. He had not expected to finish with times of that caliber for another year or more.

"Just like that," Brooks said, "and half a second (off my time) was gone."

Senior Travis Beals aided the Hoosiers' efforts, placing third in the high jump, tying his personal record. On the field, sophomore Kurt Krick and senior Zach Fleming placed second and third respectively in the shot put competition.

The women's team also performed well, placing eighth overall, but the team was disappointed with the

336 Sports

finish. Senior runner Hilary Bruening and high-jumper Nathalic Belfort led the Hoosiers.

"It was a disappointing weekend," women's coach Roseann Wilson said. "We thought going in we had a chance at fifth."

Bruening, who already held a place in IC's record book for her time in the 600-meter run, finished second with a time of 1:31.12. Belfort's personal record jump of 1.80 meters placed her third in the high jump. Placing at the Big Ten Championships had been Belfort's goal throughout the season. Although she injured herself slightly during her warm-up, the senior remained pleased with her strong performance at a major event.

Injuries and bad luck plagued the women's season.

"Many of the members of the team performed well, but the team (itself) had problems finding success at the meets," Belfort said.

The strong freshman and sophomore classes added to the team's potential. Sophomore LaToya Turner, a sprinter and hurdler, improved immensely from her freshman year. Turner, who concentrated on her form and technique during the season finished sixth in the 55-meter hurdles.

Jennifer Brown, a freshman thrower, also helped the Hoosiers throughout the season and at the Big Ten Championships. Brown placed third at the Big Tens with a toss in the shot put of 15.14 meters. Her performance qualified her for the NCAA Indoor Championships.

Along with Brown, teammates Yeager, Belfort and Krick also qualified for the NCAA Championships held at the RCA Dome in Indianapolis March 13 and 14. At NCAAs, Yeager finished 13th with a time of 7.40 in the 55-meter hurdles, and Krick placed 10th in the shot put with a throw of 18.00 meters. For the women, Belfort finished 14th in the high jump, recording a distance of 1.78 meters, and Brown secured 18th place in the shot put with a throw of 13.48 meters.

At the close of the indoor season and the advent of the unusually warm weather in Bloomington, the men and women were ready to take the track for the beginning of the outdoor season.

-I think a lot of the kids are ready for spring break and to get a little rest," Wilson said. El

THE COMING 0

f AGE

By Matt Zimmerman (though the men's and women's track teams started oft their seasons March 27, the Hoosiers began to A come of age April 4 when they hosted the Big Four Invitational, IU welcomed three Indiana teams — Purdue, Ball State University and Indiana State University — to Robert C. Haugh Track and Field Complex for this competition.

"I think the concept of the meet is a great concept, - men's coach Sam Bell said. "People are interested in the team score; the kids on the team are interested; and the people who are here are interested."

The meet came down to the last events in the men's competition: the discus, the 5,000-meter run and the 4x400meter relay. How the teams performed in those key events would determine the winner of the meet, as well as bragging rights in the state.

Junior Tom Chorny started off the Hoosier run as he took the 5,000-meters. Meanwhile, sophomores Kurt Krick and Ben Jackson finished first and second in the discus, and senior Russell Collins anchored the 4x400 relay team to victory as the Hoosiers won the meet and received the opportunity to share the victory with their fans.

"We even did a victory lap, which we have never done since I've been here," Chorny said. "I think that was great because our team's pulling together."

Both teams were pulling together as the women's team followed up its third-place finish at the Big Four by finally getting healthy going into a home meet with Illinois. Women's coach Roseann Wilson knew going in that the Hoosiers would have to be at their best against a strong Illinois team.

They are traditionally a Top-10 NCAA team every year, so they're the real deal, - Wilson said. "We're trying to be the real deal."

The young Hoosiers took a major step in that direction as the women's team dominated the meet, winning 105-84. The men fell just short, 97-92. Freshman Jennifer Brown led the women, taking first in the discus and second in the shot put and hammer throw.

"1 just stayed consistent and threw what I could that day, and it was good enough to win," Brown said. "Our team went out and really competed well. Everybody really stepped up because we knew we wanted to win against Illinois."

The next weekend, the Hoosiers traveled to Philadelphia to compete in the Penn Relays Carnival. Amid roughly 17,000 athletes competing, senior Ty Yeager found it difficult to achieve a time that would qualify him for the NCAA Outdoor Championships in the hurdles, to follow up his participation at the Indoor Championships in the 110-meter hurdles.

"It's hard to run good times there because you have a long time to wait before you actually run, (and) it's not conducive

338 Sports

to running a good time," Yeager said. "It's neat to go there once just to experience it, but if you're trying to run a time to qualify for the NCAA Championships, I don't think that's a good place to do that."

The first weekend in May, the Hoosiers hosted the U.S. Collegiate Track and Field Series Meet, competing against Air Force, Indiana State and Middle Tennessee State University.

Both the men's and women's teams emerged victorious, with 208 and 220 points, respectively.

Yeager would figure prominently in the Hoosiers' win, taking the 400-meter hurdles and qualifying for the NCAA Championships once again in the 110-meter hurdles. The icing on the cake for Yeager was the fact he had himself a big tan in Air Force coach Ralph Lindeman, who had high praise for Ty before the meet.

"I'm a big fan of Ty's, (and) I'm looking forward to watching him run," Lindeman said. "Unfortunately, our guys are gonna be watching him from behind."

The event was one of a national series designed to promote more team in track with less emphasis on individual accomplishment, and Wilson declared the event a success.

"I think it helps build a total team concept," Wilson said.

"The team members and coaches enjoy it more, and it helps the fans relate to the team concept."

Bell, who also serves as president of the United States Track Coaches Association, liked the idea of the meet because track does not get as many scholarships as other sports.

"The NCAA Qualifying system has led to the disintegration of teams, and the lack of scholarships has contributed to that," Bell said. "The reason that some coaches have elected to go with a limited team is that they don't have a lot of scholarships to work with. Track and field has not been treated equally with other sports as far as scholarships."

The Hoosiers closed out the regular season May 22-24 competing in the Big Ten Championships at Ohio State. The teams both had a disappointing showing, finishing with only one Big Ten Champion between the two teams — sophomore shot putter Kurt Krick for the men. _June 3-6, three members of the track team were in Buffalo, N.Y. to compete in the NCAA Outdoor Championships. Joining Yeager were senior high jumper Nathalie Belfort and Brown from the women's team. All three had experience, having appeared at the Indoor Championships earlier in the season.

But that experience was not enough to overcome bad conditions as Yeager finished 14th, and Belfort and Brown took eighth and 20th, respectively. Distance runner Chorny qualified as well, but suffered a stress fracture in his femur and was unable to compete. El

bile most club teams fight for years to become a varsity sport, women's water polo moved a lot faster. Prior to 1994, any woman who showed interest in water polo practiced with the men's club. In spring of 1994, eight women were interested in the sport, and the club took off from there. The records improved every year, and after four years of being a club sport, the women moved up to varsity status.

From the start of the season, the women did not worry about the transitional period. They began 1998 ready to compete for the big titles.

"We've been steadily moving up the charts in the Midwest the past three years," coach Barry King said before the start of the season. "We should compete for the Midwest and Big Ten Championship."

Many teams tended to set their goals too high, but the women set their goals at just the right spot as they dominated opponents all season, placed second at Big Ten Championships, and swept six opponents to place first in the Midwestern Regionals.

The Hoosiers opened the season with the Indiana Invitational. They won their first two matches against Big Ten opponents and tied the third, leaving their record undefeated.

In its first seven games, the team compiled five wins, one tie and one loss. The women jumped right into competition and proved they deserved to compete at a Division I level.

"The intensity of everything is so much greater. There was more time and more resources — performances had to improve," King said.

There was definitely a difference between a club sport and a varsity sport. But the transition was an easy one for the women. They eased into play, and once they began winning, they did not let up easy.

The season progressed, and the Hoosiers continued to add wins to the season record. They dominated opponents, especially Big Ten ones and averaged 8.9 goals per game.

When Big Ten Championships rolled around April 10-12, the Hoosiers arrived at Northwestern with a 16-4-1 regular season record and a No. 2 seed. The previous season, the team finished second and looked to improve its placing.

IU dominated opponents in the first four games defeating Illinois 16-1, Northwestern 6-1, Michigan 9-1 and Wisconsin 14-1. Freshmen came out strong for the Hoosiers in the two day tournament. In the opening game, freshman Sara Wiechers led the team with four goals. Fellow freshmen Kelly McKay, Meredith and Sheri Fagley also added two goals a piece. Senior Kate Toole stood her ground making 15 saves against Northwestern and 10 blocks against Michigan State.

"We really came together today," assistant coach Jack Wagner said. "Regardless of who we played, we played as a team."

The Championship game paired the Hoosiers up with Michigan. A hard-fought battle came to an end with the Wolverines claiming the 6-3 victory.

The team returned to Bloomington and began making preparations for the Midwestern Regionals which they hosted at the Counsilman/Billingsley Aquatic Center April 17-19.

IU won the first match against Ohio State because of a forfeit, but forfeit or not, the win would have happened. The Hoosiers showed they were comfortable at home and put intense offensive and defensive pressure on their opponents winning five straight games and allowing opponents to score a mere 11 goals compared to their 54.

Winning the Midwestern Regionals was especially sweet for the Hoosiers because they beat Michigan for the first time.

After years of getting crushed by the Wolverines, the Hoosiers won 5-4 and finished first at the Regionals.

"Big Ten was a disappointment because we played well all the way through," King said. "We created all the opportunities we needed, but didn't finish. In the Midwestern Regionals, we did. It was definitely the highlight of the season, not just because we won the title, but because we heat Michigan."

Claiming the Midwestern Regional title, the Hoosiers headed to the National Championships hosted by University of Southern California. The first two rounds the No. 11seeded Hoosiers were in a scoring funk. They failed to score in both games and allowed University of California at Berkeley and USC to combine and outscore IU 11-0.

In the third round, the Hoosiers were ready for action.

They faced rival Michigan, who was also ready for revenge.

The scoring funk ceased as the Hoosiers put two on the board, but Michigan doubled the score and took the victory.

Princeton University became the Hoosiers' next opponent.

This game marked the third time the teams met during the season. IU won the first meeting 11-5. Princeton squeaked by with a 5-4 win in the second meeting. With one win a piece, 342 Sports

who would take the victory became a mystery.

It was a close match once again with both teams hungry for the victory. Princeton managed to squeak by again with a 5-4 win ending the Hoosiers' season. IU left Los Angeles without a victory in a National Championship game, but the team made it there.

Individually, sophomore Deb Simone led the team in scoring with 50 goals and 40 assists, followed closely by senior Amy Pankoke with 41 goals and 22 assists. Toole accumulated 311 saves, averaging 9.5 per game.

Sophomore Kara Fellerhoff played one year for the club and watched it transform to varsity status. She said things did not change much, but it was a great experience. "It's a lot more strenuous but a lot more fun to compete at a higher level," Fellerhoff said.

Few teams could boast that they started out as a club and ended their first varsity season with a 26-9-1 record, a second place finish in Big Tens, a first place finish in Midwestern Regionals and an invitation to the National Tournament. But the Hoosiers did it. They made a successful transition and proved they deserved to play at the varsity level.Ei

Rugby team adyani

to natI.ona. s after undefeated season

DOMINATING Story By Matt Zimmerman Photos By Jim Bowling fter being ousted by the eventual national champion. the University of California at Berkeley, in the 1997 A national sweet 16, the Indiana University Rugby Mudsharks vowed to do better next time.

The loss spoiled an undefeated season which ended with the Mudsharks qualifying for the national tournament for the first time — no small feat for a non-varsity, club sport. But one thing differed between then and now.

This year, they were on a mission.

"The goal we set at the beginning of the season is the Final Four," coach Sarasopa Enari said in April. "We take it one at a time, but the goal is the Final Four."

Before they reached that goal, the team had to negotiate a tough fall schedule that included teams such as the University of Illinois-Chicago. But, led by Enari, junior Don Younger, a member of the U.S. national Rugby team, and sophomore flanker Gerrit Verplank, the Mudsharks came through the fall portion of their schedule unscathed, securing the No. 2 seed in the spring national tournament with a 16-0 record.

Inclement Indiana weather resulted in a season suspension for the winter months. The Mudsharks used this time to prepare for the biggest challenge a non-varsity team must face during the season — the negative (and misguided) perception of the sport of rugby as merely an excuse for people to party.

"We approach it as a sport, and we want to excel in the sport that we play," club president Erin Burkhammer, a junior, said. "We're trying to prove not just to the (IU) administration, but to everybody in the United States, that rugby is a legitimate sport and deserves recognition."

The Mudsharks went a long way toward proving their dedication when they planned their spring break trip. While many of their peers went to Florida, California or some other paradise for the week, the Mudsharks decided to spend the time honing their game.

They embarked on a trip to Ireland to play three games against Irish Rugby Clubs. They went to Ireland with two spring seasons under their belts and prepared for what they anticipated would he some of the best competition they had ever faced on the rugby field.

I think it'll help our skill level a great deal, (because) the skill level is way above ours," Verplank said prior to the trip. "I think we'll find out about how to play the game better and the little things that have to be done. It will be very educational."

But the Mudsharks also knew their style of rugby, horn from American sports, might teach the Irish clubs a thing or two. "(Because of) American football, we have that mentality where we have to hit somebody to stop the play."

Burkhammer said. "They don't do that, they want to gain possession, but we just want to lay the wood."

The Irish clubs surprised the Americans, giving out more licks than the Mudsharks expected. IU dropped its first game in Ireland by one point to the Malahide Rugby Club. It was the Mudsharks' first loss of the season, and club treasurer, junior Mike Morris, said the game was an important learning experience for the team.

"The best part was the Malahide game, by far," Morris said.

"Playing the men's clubs helped us a lot, because they play more physical. We usually had the speed advantage, (but) playing more physical clubs really toughened us up."

The newly toughened Mudsharks recovered to win their next two games, 40-5 over the Tuam Men's Rugby Club and 33-24 over Cork Institute of Technology.

"As far as bouncing back, we strive for success in everything we do," Burkhammer said. "We went over there thinking, 'If we lose, we lose, as long as we learn something.The Mudsharks did more than learn. They gained experience — experience that would prove valuable upon their return home to finish the regular season.

But they also gained something else.

"There's guys (on the team) that have never played highlevel (international) rugby," Younger said. "This gives them the confidence that they can play with the best teams in the states."

The Mudsharks next opponent, the No. 16-ranked Truman State University Rugby Club, was one of the best teams in the United States. The team met that challenge as well, using their superior athleticism to soundly defeat Truman State, 47-27.

The Mudsharks' opponent did not go quietly, as Truman State struck first blood by scoring first.

"We knew right then we had a game on our hands," Burkhammer said. "(But) we pulled our socks up and were able to take it to them."

The Mudsharks returned home for the final two matches of the regular season. They easily defeated the University of Illinois' rugby team, 56-0, but that was not the highlight of the brief homestand.

The highlight came a week later, when the Mudsharks tuned up for the national sweet 16 tournament by humbling Illinois-Chicago, 75-5, in a game Illinois-Chicago's coach, Adrian Gannon, called an "old-fashioned whuppin."

Enari knew that a successful tournament run would he up to the players, themselves, if they were to build on their stillunblemished 21-0 record.

"From my perspective as a coach, the coaching part is pretty much over," Enari said before the tournament. "It's up to them to walk onto the field and do what needs to be done." continued

Below: Watts throws the ball to teammate Mike Morris while an Illinois opponent tries to interfere. The Mudsharks headed to California making their first Final Four and hoping to win it all. Their hopes fell short when they lost to Stanford University in semi-final action and finished the season with a record of 23-2.

The Mudsharks prepared to face a bracket that included Truman State, Central Washington University, and the University of Connecticut. The team realized that it would not cruise through the tournament in the same manner used to dominate during the regular season. "(UConn) was the first team we had played that could keep up with our speed and our tempo," Burkhammer said. "(But) while they had the speed to keep up with us, they didn't have the creativity."

The lack of creativity proved fatal for UConn as they ended their season with a 49-26 loss to the Mudsharks.

The Mudsharks struggled to dominate in the second game which pitted them against Truman State for the second time.

This time, there would he no 20-point victory as Mother Nature intervened with torrential rains and a 30-degree windchill. 'thus, the game moved from the outside, where the Mudsharks usually dominated the field with speed, to the trenches, where the opponent enjoyed an advantage.

348 Sports

"We couldn't play the speed game," Burkhammer said.

"We had to play the grinding, bang-it-out game, which is exactly what (Truman State) wanted."

The weather became so bad that junior fullback Matt McKerring slowed down due to hypothermia.

But a Final Four berth was on the line.

McKerring's teammates wrapped him, blue lips and all, in blankets on the sidelines at halftime, and he played through the pain as the Mudsharks prevailed.

McKerring's feeling of cold turned into one of euphoria as the Mudsharks won 29-22 to earn a berth in the Final Four.

"My joints were all tight," McKerring said "When the final whistle blew, we won, but it was good it was over, because it hurt so bad. I had never been so cold in my life."

The cold gave way to the warm California sun as the Mudsharks prepared to travel to San Francisco to compete in the national Final Four. Although the team had reached its original goal — the time had come to set its sights higher.

-It's a tremendous opportunity for our club to prove itself on a national level," Morris said. "I'm not wasting my time just to go out to the Final Four. I want to win it all."

But the Mudsharks had their work cut out for them as rookies in a Final Four that included the usual powerhouses: Stanford University, making its third consecutive Final Four appearance, and Navy, a team that was known for its size.

The mighty UC Berkeley completed the formidable field. Not only was Berkeley attempting to win its eighth straight national title, but the varsity Golden Bears had dominated the sport for the last 18 years, winning 14 national championships.

"Berkeley is the top team in the country, no doubt," Verplank said. "They're the team to beat."

The Mudsharks never got the chance to play Berkeley, as Stanford won the contest 38-25, advancing to the championship game against Berkeley. But the season did not end for the Mudsharks as they battled Navy for third place.

In the game, Navy defeated the Mudsharks 43-38, bringing

their season to a close with a 23-2 record.

"It was fun to see the level (of play) we had attained," senior Brian Hudecek said. "We lost both games, but they were very close. A play here or there, and we would have won; it was a good ending."

Meanwhile, Berkeley won the national title, and coach Jack Clark said more than varsity funding has made his team a success. "Our advantage is that our guys take it very seriously, they train five days a week," Clark said. "That type of dedication isn't about money and resources, it's about commitment."

With the trip to Ireland, the first trip to the Final Four, and an undefeated regular season under their belts, no one could question the Mudsharks' commitment, especially in light of fact that their non-varsity club status meant that IU did not provide any funding. They paid for those trips from their own pockets — a true sign of commitment.

"We are here to play nigby," Burkhammer said. "Our goal every year from now will be to win the national championship.-

STORY BY JOHANNA HAMLIN PHOTOS BY MATT MCCLAIN

Students mingle in the courtyard at Collins Living Learning Center.

Collins differed not only in appearance from other dorms, but in the way people related to each other. They called themselves "Collonsites." Collins celebrated its 25th anniversary in 1998.

f a casual observer of Collins LivingLearning Center saw its castle-like I buildings, ivy-covered exterior and hackey-sac playing residents in the courtyard, one might peg it as a dorm unlike any other.

While Collins contained many aspects characteristic of most Ili residence halls, such as a computer cluster, lounge, cafeteria and email station, Collins had a special something that made hundreds of people apply to live there each year — and want to stay there. This something could not he easily defined, since hundreds of unique pieces made up the Collins experience.

Each year, Collins Living Learning Center sponsored many activities. These activities were as diverse as the people that lived within the walls of this residence hall. The residents of Collins had the option of attending such events as the Naked Poetry Reading or joining the dorm's environmental group. "E-Force."

By having the resource of the Cheshire Cafe, a coffeehouse, Collins housed man y up-andcoming local bands, such as Old Pike and Chamberlain. The cafe often served as a popular hang-out for fans of Ska, as well as other types of music.

One thing was for sure — there was never a lack of activities for those who wanted to

get involved. The dorm's newsletter, The Collins Columns, updated residents on events going on at Collins. As a student-run publication, The Collins Columns offered residents the opportunity to he a leader in their dorm and get writing experience at the same time.

A learning center as well as a dormitory, Collins residents were also required to enroll in a nine-week class sometime during their residency. The class, offered at the dorm, was taught by Collins upperclassmen and revolved around experimental themes specific to Collins residents.

These and other opportunities that other dorms did not offer created a strong community spirit that brought people back year after year.

"It is not your typical dorm, because there arc bigger rooms and more activities available to get involved with, and the money that we pay to live here goes back into the Collins community," freshman Kathleen Bragg said.

People chose to live at Collins for many reasons. Some lived at Collins because it offered many opportunities to get involved. "I had friends that lived here already and they liked it, and I felt that this dorm had the most to offer me in the way of academics and activities," freshman Liz Marzal said. continued

Other students who found their niche at Collins saw it as their home away from home. "This dorm is a family. When I walk anywhere in town or on campus, I can tell who is a 'Collinsite' and who is not," sophomore Marie McCarthy said.

"Even if it is someone I do not know personally, we give each other acknowledging smiles as we pass."

This unique bond amongst Collins residents extended beyond their college years, as evident at the dorm's 25th anniversary celebration. May 16, "Collinsites" from the previous two decades reunited in the Collins courtyard for a weekend of festivities marking the dorm's founding.

IU graduate Josh Moline, a Collins resident from 1993-1995, attended several of the weekend's activities, which included a cookout, poetry readings, ceramics sessions and stand-up comedy. Moline said Collins residents were such a close knit group because unlike other IU dorms, who housed thousands of students under their roofs, Collins had less than 500 residents.

"I met almost every one of my best friends at Collins," Moline said. "Sometimes I lose track of the people I lived with in Collins, but it's hard to keep in touch with 500 friends.- El

Graduate student Heejun Jeong walks down the corridors of the Musical Arts Center after ballet practice. Jeong first got involved with ballet at the age of five to strengthen her body which had been weakened by severe malnutrition at birth. Though it was once thought she would never be able to walk properly, Jeong became an accomplished dancer who trained and taught at numerous academies worldwide and who pursued a master's degree from the ballet science program at Indiana University.

HEEJUN JEONG

FINDING STRENGTH IN DANCE student uses ballet for physical and spiritual renewal STORY BY CARLA MENDEZ PHOTOS BY DOROTHY FOO petite woman with dark, shoulder-length hair and huge brown eyes, Heejun Jeong, appeared younger A than her 28 years. She radiated a childlike amazement, yet at the same time, displayed a wisdom that only came with age and life experience.

Jeong definitely had experience. A ballet dancer, she came to Indiana University in 1996 to pursue a master's degree in ballet science. She faced many obstacles to get to Bloomington, but she explained her life journey had only just begun.

Dance, specifically ballet, had been a huge part of Jeong's childhood, though not always for pleasure. Jeong's natural mother struggled with an illness during her pregnancy, which resulted in Jeong being born with severe malnutrition. Shortly after giving birth, Jeong's mother passed away. Jeong was born with weak legs and a tiny frame, and it was uncertain whether she would ever walk adequately, let alone make other demanding movements. Her father's second wife, who Jeong refers to as her mother, enrolled Jeong in dance classes at age 5 with the expectation that dance might strengthen and combat her physical weaknesses.

By age 8, this hope turned into reality. Her improvement was immense, and she was walking, skipping, and running. Dance, although just therapy in the beginning, would become more to Jeong. It would become the foundation of her future.

At Samsung, the largest dance company in Korea, Jeong choreographed a modern dance in 1995. Reflecting on her time spent teaching children, Jeong's face lit up. continued

Above: Ballerina Heejun Jeong pauses to rest and gather her thoughts during practice. She relied on her faith and strong Christian beliefs to help her through the difficult moments of her life. Calling herself a "missionary of ballet," Jeong believed in combining ballet dance with spirituality.

Right: Heejun Jeong gracefully stretches with a ballet move. She came to Bloomington from Korea in 1996 and is one of the few Asian dancers in IU's ballet program. Throughout her readjustment to a new American lifestyle, Jeong remained positive. "I'm not going to look at the negative side of things," she said. "It's not effective for me."

"I learned a lot from them. They smile. They express what's in their hearts," she said.

Besides her training in ballet, Jeong also obtained an undergraduate degree at Chosun University in Korea. She came to the United States in 1996 and took classes in preparation for her admittance into the ballet science program. With her admission into the program, she planned on applying the knowledge she gained to the area of physical therapy. Since she began her life with a disability, she felt she could relate to the debilitating effects of having a handicap.

Jeong also hoped to combine her dance training with her strong Christian beliefs, creating a position for herself as a "missionary of ballet." This term she coined for herself described an individual who strived to incorporate dance with spirituality, focusing not on the professional, but on the self and God. Jeong's sense of spiritual faith in dance and life helped her through difficult times, including the deep homesickness she felt during her first year at IU. "It was difficult last year," she said. "I was depressed, had no desire, stayed at home, and wanted to go back to Korea."

Jeong believed that God answered her prayers during this time of personal turmoil in the form of Paul and Louise Bonney, a Bloomington couple who responded positively to an announcement at their church expressing her desire to live with a host family. Jeong stayed with the Bonneys for a summer and remained in their lives ever since. Both spoke of her with the highest regard.

"She's enriched our lives. She keeps bringing people that we probably never would have met into our home.

Everyone that meets her, loves her," Louise said.

Though her admission status into the ballet science program was still pending, Jeong remained hopeful and content. Even if she did not get accepted, she felt she had learned much from her experiences in America.

"I had the opportunity to come to (the) U.S. and I have to use it to its potential," she said. "I'm a very thankful person. Even if I don't pass the audition, I'm satisfied with my situation."

Her positive attitude shone through the obstacles that have marred her path. "I have to overcome. I have to smile. I am alive," she said.

"My legs, my arms, they are okay. I'm not handicapped. My eyes, my nose, my mouth, it's okay.

If I close my eyes and something happens by accident, it's okay. I have to wake up in my soul."Ei

FIVE WOMEN ESTABLISH NEW LATINA SORORITY STORY BY SUSIE ZARAGOZA PHOTOS BY KEVIN STUART

Alumnus Toni Robbins, junior Patricia Alavarado and senior Michelle Acevedo pensively wait as the members of Sigma Lambda Gamma are introduced at its public ceremony in Beck Chapel. For the past five years, several women worked to establish the Latina-oriented Sigma Lambda Gamma sorority at 1U. In April 1997, they were finally awarded chapter status.

n the evening of Dec. 5, a small group congregated at Beck Chapel for a public ceremony honoring the founders and first line of Sigma Lambda Gamma, a Latina-oriented sorority newly established at IU. As each of the sorority's 14 members were called onto the chapel stage, Sigma Lambda Gamma's first-ever president, senior Lisa Cardenas, offered them a pink rose. Fragile, as would be the sorority's beginning years, yet beautiful like the women's bond of sisterhood, the pink rose had come to symbolize Sigma Lambda Gamma.

"The bond that we have established is irreplaceable," Cardenas said at the ceremony. "We have created a place for Latina women to feel comfortable."

The struggle to find a place of belonging within a predominately white university was what led alumni Natalia Peral-Rayzor, one of the original founders, to Sigma Lambda Gamma in 1993. As freshmen, PeralRayzor and her four other co-founders had looked for a sorority to join, but were unsatisfied with what the sororities on campus had to offer.

"All of us went through the white rush process," she said. "Some of us went through the black greek system as well and to Gamma Phi Omega, the other Latina sorority."

"But we wanted to do something different. So jokingly one of the girls said, hey, let's start our own sorority," Peral-Rayzor said.

What began as a joke became a possibility when the founders heard of Sigma Lambda Gamma, a national Latina sorority that had been established at the University of Iowa in 1990. The five IU founders, who also included alumni Andrea Eguia, Elsa Flores, Cristina Rocha and Patricia Sandoval, decided to take a road trip to the national headquarters in Iowa to meet some of the women in the national board and to see if the sorority's principles and purpose matched up with their own. They were impressed by Sigma Lambda Gamma's strong ties between culture, education and womanhood, and after their trip to Iowa, decided to establish a chapter at IU. The decision to bring Sigma Lambda Gamma to IU was met by enthusiasm from many women on campus, but the actual process involved in establishing a sorority proved to he long and difficult. The five original women were inducted into the national sorority as 5 U.N.I.T.Y. (acronyms were ascribed to every new pledge class) and then worked on structuring the sorority for over a year. After the chapter was organized, the first line of pledges was initiated, a group of nine women assigned the name 9 V.I.D.A.. This pledge class did the remainder of the organizing work for the sorority, as they filed the necessary applications, recruited new members and raised money.

"The five founders got the sorority established," Sigma Lambda Gamma vice-president Claudia Ontiveros, a senior, said. And 9 V.I.D.A. continued put the chapter together."

In April 1997, the Sigma Lambda Gamma colony established at IU was awarded the greek alphabet letter Psi by the national board, which finally granted them chapter status. It was a fitting tribute to the original five founders, who by this time, were finishing their senior year of college.

"It took us almost five years from the first meeting we had to finally get our chapter," Peral-Rayzor said. "It meant a lot to be accepted as a sorority on the IU campus."

Sigma Lambda Gamma, Psi's first year as an official chapter was an active one, in which they participated in events like Hispanic Heritage Month, multicultural greek councils and cultural dinners. The sorority's pet program, though, was their "Gammas for Groups" program held in the summer, where they advised and mentored Groups students on how to adjust to college life. The Groups program was an annual summer seminar designed by the University for incoming freshmen of low-income families.

With the constant activity of a new sorority, combined with the demands of school work, things often became stressful for the sorority sisters.

"We went through so much this past year," Ontiveros said. "It was hard for us, but I would do it over again 20 more times if I had to."

But the Psi chapter's first year also brought the initiation of two more lines, 1 S.I.E.M.P.R.E. in the fall and 5 P.R.Y.D.E. in the spring. The sorority did not follow the rush process of the predominantly white greek system at IU, but instead had its pledges participate in a membership development program. Each pledge had to participate in several cultural and educational programs that prepared them for initiation and had to devote a minimum of 15 hours per week of studying with their pledge class. Once initiated, the women also had to

maintain a grade point average of 2.5 or better, a higher standard than the 2.0 required by most greek houses.

Also unlike other greeks, Sigma Lambda Gamma did not have a house in which all of its members lived.

Cardenas said that because most of the women in the sorority came from blue-collar families, a sorority house that charged over $400 a month in bills would only steer potential members away.

"A sorority can function without four walls and a roof.

Slumber parties, girl-to-girl talks, we do all that, and it's great. But that's not the purpose of our sorority.

"Our programming, our studying together, our activism...that's what our sorority is about," Cardenas said.

Even though Sigma Lambda Gamma was a predominantly Latina sorority, Cardenas asserted that all nationalities and cultures were welcomed into the sorority, and that they have never attempted to isolate themselves from other greek systems. In the past, the sorority worked with fraternities and sororities like Kappa Alpha Psi, Kappa Gamma Delta and Delta Gamma.

"We've been trying to bridge the gaps between all other fraternities and sororities," Cardenas said. "We try to open the doors, promote our culture as we try to embrace other cultures."

Promotion of culture was the main goal of Sigma Lambda Gamma's national founders in Iowa, as it was with IU's chapter, whose members ranged from Puerto Rican to Mexican, Guatemalan to Caucasian and Phillipino. The national motto every Sigma Lambda Gamma member was sworn into was, "Culture is pride, pride is success."

"You have to know where you come from in order to know where you're going," Cardenas said. "If we stay with that motto, we'll be more successful as women in general." El

SETTING AN EXAMPLE FOR THE GREEK COMMUNITY

s a little girl, Leigh Jenkins wanted to he a heart surgeon. "I don't know why. I don't even know if I A knew exactly what it was," Jenkins chuckled.

Open heart surgery would not be feasible with her telecommunications degree, but she opened her heart to Indiana University.

November 13, 1997, the Greek community recognized Jenkins for this big heart. At a ceremony sponsored by the Panhellenic Association, Jenkins received the Outstanding Greek Woman of the Year award. As recipient of the honor, she received a plaque and a S250 scholarship.

Each of IU's 18 sororities nominated one senior per chapter, and the Panhellenic Association made the final decision. The judging was based on academics, campus involvement, each girl's activities inside her chapter, and her involvement in the greek system.

"The award is only open to seniors, so the (recipient) has to show a trend of having been committed her entire four years," said Branch Reid, Panhellenic's vice president of membership development.

Although far from her Dallas home, Jenkins did not regret her choice to attend IU. Bloomington suited her; she liked His small town atmosphere, and she wanted to live in a place with four seasons. "She's always had a mind of her own," her father, John Jenkins, said.

His daughter attributed her happiness at IU to her sorority, Delta Gamma. Jenkins said it was her family away from home. Delta Gamma helped Jenkins become more involved on campus. In her four years at II', she served as a freshman orientation counselor, participated in Dance Marathon, served as a co-director for Spirit of Sport and worked as a disc jockey and promotions person for WIUS. Within the greek system, she served as the director of rush counselors and vice president of Panhellenic for Delta

Gamma, where she was responsible for public relations, alumni affairs, planning Morn's and Dad's Weekends and serving as a liaison between Panhellenic and Delta Gamma.

Jenkins' motivation to get involved stemmed from the many people she met throughout college. "I love to be with people.

For each person I meet, I'm a different person," she said.

Jenkins showed this same attitude when she recalled Dance Marathon and how the experience changed her.

"We take for granted we have four limbs, but you see they don't. These children have been through more than we have," she said.

Ried said Jenkins' positive attitude did not go unnoticed.

"Leigh is always happy to see you. She's always the one that can make you smile."

Jenkins' father said what he noticed most about his daughter was her persistence. "She's a good swimmer. but when she was a kid at her first meet, my gosh, I thought she was going to drown. But she finished." Jenkins not only finished, she went on to give swim lessons and become the head lifeguard at IIJ's HPER and SRSC, where she oversaw 46 other lifeguards.

The greek system highly regarded The Outstanding Greek Woman of the Year award. "Because the Greek system is known for producing community leaders, to receive the award recognizes you as a leader among leaders," Reid said.

"We were extremel y excited for her when she told us she got the award. - said her father. Her parents had an announcement printed in two local Dallas newspapers.

Jenkins graduated in May 1998 and hoped to go into a marketing area of telecommunications. Her experiences at IU gave her the confidence to start her career wherever she found opportunities. "HI go where I find a job that I'd like," she said.

"You make a new life."

Phi Kappa Theta

BROTHERLY BEGINNINGS PHOTOS BY DMITRY KIYATKIN TORY Y KATHRYN KNAPP

Inset Photo: Members of Phi Kappa Theta stand outside the Kappa Delta Rho house in early October before their letters were erected. PKT made an agreement to share KDR's house for the 1997-98 school year. The existence of these letters was important to the group for it meant finally being visible on campus. The event was an honor for any fraternity, but it was especially imperative for a young chapter like PKT.

Being a newly established fraternity, PKT had difficulties attracting people amidst the sea of competing fraternities.

Top right: PKT brother Jeff Stoute receives help from his parents, Debbie and Dean, when installing the house letters.

With little alumni support, most of the funds came from the members themselves. The members ended up paying over $580 each for room, board and other fees.

owing into the house this fall, members of Phi Kappa Theta experienced something for the first time — living on campus. The members lived in numerous other houses off campus since they reestablished the Alpha Alpha chapter in 1994. However, fall semester represented the first time the fraternity received recognition from both Indiana University and the Interfraternity Council.

Being recognized as a fraternity allowed members to compete in the Greek level of intramurals as well as have a voice in the president's council and he a part of Greek Fest and many other Greek-oriented events. But living on "fraternity row" topped off the recognition.

The executive offices of Kappa Delta Rho and PKT made an agreement allowing PKT to share the KDR house for the 1997-98 semester. So in August, members of PKT moved onto the second floor of the house. Things went well between members of the different fraternities. However in December, a problem arose. With final's week just around the corner, members of PKT went to pay rent. They thought it was just an ordinary meeting, but to their surprise, they received some interesting information. Monroe County Bank foreclosed on the house due to inadequate housing payments and informed PKT members that they had to find another place to live before the start of second semester.

"They gave us an insanely short time period to stay," senior Jason Pierson said. "We were basically confused by the whole thing since this was the first time we'd heard anything about it."

PKT protested and hired a lawyer while KDR packedup and left the house. Many reasons caused PKT to seek counsel, but the main reason was the fact that the bank had knowledge of PKT residing in the house and failed to give them adequate warning of the date of foreclosure. So PKT and lawyer, PKT alum Jack Wicks, battled the bank for the continued right to fulfill its lease.

Finally the decision was granted in favor of PKT, and members remained in the house until the school year ended.

Phi Kappa Theta never had an easy time keeping a chapter alive. Before it ever became a fraternity, PKT consisted of a group of guys who called themselves Torch and Skull. In 1939 they progressed into Phi Kappa. While receiving few opportunities, in the 1940s or 50s PKT had an opportunity to purchase a house across the street from the library for $10,000. Members turned down the offer after they decided that it was too far from campus — the corner of 10th Street and Fee Lane. In 1959 Phi Kappa and Theta Kappa Phi merged to form Phi Kappa Theta. However in the 1970s the National Executive Office closed down the Bloomington chapter due to inadequate chapter operation.

In 1992 a group of guys got together and decided it was time to bring back Phi Kappa Theta. Rush in the fall of 1993 was successful with PKT gaining enough members to become colonized Jan. 29, 1994.

"Watching a small group of guys turn into 25 founding fathers at a ceremony which reestablished our presence here at IU was quite an accomplishment," senior Robert Ignas said.

"We had a lot of rough times, we had a lot of good times. But bringing PKT back to life was definitely the highlight."

PKT had simple goals when it began and prided itself on those goals throughout the years: recruiting members, keeping a 3.0 grade point average and acquiring adequate housing. It did not specify certain criteria to be a member. It wanted the whole idea of the fraternity to revolve around one simple word — brotherhood.

"We have no preconceptions about who we want to be in the fraternity," President Senior Brian Lehr said.

"Brotherhood, faith, friendship, loyalty and respect are the only things we look for. We pretty much try to be the allaround fraternity." continued

PKT brother senior Robert Ignas said, "We had a lot of rough times, we had a lot of good times. But bringing Phi Kappa Theta back to life was definitely the highlight.-

Below: Senior Scott Dills watches junior Richard Temple play a computer game in his PKT room. Since colonizing in 1992, the PKTs have moved around various off campus houses before finally securing their Jordan Avenue house in 1997.

Through the years, PKT competed in intramurals and raised money for Riley Children's Hospital and other philanthropies. It planned on devoting more time to the Children's Miracle Network, the official PKT organization.

PKT experienced some problems during the course of the year: the moving limbo, a falling-apart house and adapting to new rules. Moving onto campus cut back on the freedom members once had. The parties with alcohol became nonexistent since IU was a dry campus.

Overall, living on campus proved to be a good thing for PKT. The experience helped recruit new members. PKT closed off the year with 20 members, though it still strived for 30 members to return annually.

"The experience has been good, especially second semester," Lehr said. "Living in this house and being a part of IFC has done nothing but help our chapter, especially for recruitment and as being in the public eye."

But it was a trial period for the members of Phi Kappa Theta.

They tried living on campus and survived. They got their name out there. They did not fail, although some skeptics expected them to. And most of all they received the long-awaited recognition that their founding fathers deserved.

"It's been a long, uphill journey, but we're finally getting to where we want to be," Pierson said. "We may not be the biggest house on campus, but we don't want to be. We just want to be the best — and only the best." in

Reaching Out A\ D TOUCHING LIVES

BY LYDIA RUEGER

eana McClain's second grade class at Fairview Elementary School began for the day, but all the desks sat empty. Children's L books laid scattered haphazardly around the room, but neither of these things stopped McClain from teaching or her students from learning. McClain's students rested on the floor with pillows and cushions, waiting for IU students to arrive.

As part of the Read Across America program, McClain brought some of the youngest and oldest students together. McClain, who also taught an education class at IU, asked her college students to take part in the program. All day, IU students jumped in and out of the classroom reading and interacting with the second graders.

"I'm in Mrs. McClain's class, too," junior Katie Hunt told the class before she started reading. Students listened attentively to a story that Hunt said her mother read to her when she was little. Soon other students arrived, and a reading group sprouted up in every corner of the room.

The importance of reading practice and interacting weighec I heavily for some of Fairview's students who did not get it at home. McClain said only four of her 18 students come from what she called "normal families."Many have never seen their fathers," she said. About 70 percent of Fairview students ate on the free lunch program for low-income families, according to McClain. "Families will often pick up and move overnight. because they can't pay the rent," McClain said. "They are neat kids, with crummy home environments. At the end of the

day they'll ask, `do we have to go?' or 'can't we just stay?' " Read Across America Day, which honored author Theodore "Dr. Suess" Geisel's birthday, also gave students something to take home.

Local lawyer Sam Ardery, the Barnes and Noble national bookstore chain and McClain's husband sponsored the class. These sponsors made sure each student had his or her own Dr. Suess book, said senior Missy Stewart, McClain's student teacher.

IU education majors did not receive a Dr. Suess book that day, but took valuable classroom experience away with them. Stewart said she had volunteered in McClain's classroom before and loved watching a teacher become so involved with her students. When the time came for her to student teach, Stewart's first choice was Mrs. McClain.

Junior Rochelle Greenwald participated as another student reader.

Like Stewart, Greenwald loved working with McClain and her class. "I was in Mrs. McClain's class las year, but I wanted to come because I love these guys," she said. Former students, as well as parents, teachers, and other volunteers received invitations to come in and read to McClain's class.

McClain brought her classes together through many other projects. Greenwald said during her class McClain paired two or three IU students with a second grade pen pal.

"They are so used to my (IU) students coming in and out of their class," McClain said. She attributed the success of Read Across America Day to her college students. "IU students are what makes all of this possible," she said. "I couldn't do it by myself."

Gone P e)ishin' IMMERSED I\ THE C _LTURE STORY BY RICHARD FEDERICO PHOTOS BY KEVIN STUART

Above: junior Heather Schrock laughs with a group of friends before entering the Phish concert Nov. 19 in Champaign, Ill. Smith spent the summer following Phish around the country. She paid for her trip by selling hand-made dresses, such as the one she was wearing.

In 1983, four Vermont college students formed a band and began playing in small area clubs. Over the next decade, these young musicians' unique sound and style attracted more followers than they imagined.

In a culture where tie-dyed clothing and hemp accessories abounded, the Phish phenomenon dominated. And many IU students latched on to the experience.

The unique rise of Phish's popularity gained recognition without help from the radio or MTV. People discovered Phish through word of mouth, as well as through taped live performances. Phish fans traded the tapes from different shows.

Live performances became the band's foundation as thousands of "Phishheads" traveled from show to show. Its concerts demonstrated the hand's ability to play many different musical genres, including blue grass, jazz and improvisational rock. Phish encouraged the taping of its shows, and the band members worked hard to make sure every show maintained a uniqueness all its own. At a concert in Boston, Phish descended from the rafters, playing from inside an inflatable hot dog.

"Their talent is what appeals to me," said junior Sara Craig.

"The way they don't have anything planned, they just go off on a tangent, and it is always different."

In the summer of 1996 Phish hosted the Clifford Ball in Plattsburgh, N.Y., where it played three sets a day for two days. The band performed at an abandoned air force base, and loyal fans camped over night. More than 135,000 tickets were sold for the event, making it the largest concert in North America for that year. In 1997 Phish followed that formula once again with the Great Went in Limestone, Maine.

Several books were written about the band, including four volumes of the Pharmer's Almanac. This book, which was written by Phish fans, included set lists from every show Phish had played. Fellow Vermonters, Ben Cohen and Jerry Greenfield, founders of Ben & Jerry's Ice Cream, showed their appreciation for the hand by dedicating an ice cream flavor to them. "Phish Food" hit the market in 1997. Phish donated its proceeds to the clean up of Vermont's Lake Champlain.

After the Grateful Dead's Jerry Garcia passed away in August of 1995, Phish's popularity exploded as "Deadheads" flocked to Phish shows. The press quickly compared the two bands.

"The comparison bothers me somewhat," said sophomore Brian Olson. The music has a similar style but the bands are different. Phish does their own thing and has taken it to different levels. Also, it is a different listening audience."

Phish's primarily young, collegiate crowd had similar cultural traits to followers of the Grateful Dead. Tie-dyed shirts were just as common as the drug scene at shows, and the fans showed great loyalty and dedication to the band.

"At a show, it is open and free," said Craig. "The people there are really nice, but I wouldn't categorize them. They are nomadic!"

Junior Rod Rinehart attended over 30 Phish shows. He had seen Phish play in 14 different states, and he even drove to a show in New Orleans the weekend before finals in 1996.

"A show definitely takes priority over classes," said Rinehart.

"I am a born procrastinator so it isn't hard to put stuff off. It doesn't hurt my grades at all. In fact, it may help them because at a show, I relieve stress and have fun. in

ne Essence of Dance WITH STYLE ALL THEIR OWN STORY BY MOLLY SNODGRASS PHOTOS BY MONTY HOWELL

1

n her junior year at IU, Taprena Augustine had a vision. She wanted to bring together a company of dancers in the tradition of the black college dance team. A dancer since the age of three and choreographer at 13, Augustine recognized the inaccessibility of this type of dance at IU, despite a high level of interest.

In the fall of 1995, Augustine's vision materialized when she founded IU Essence. The team concerned itself with providing diversity at IU through dance, and the troupe allowed a select group of talented women to perform in a style which suited them. "(The other dance groups on campus) didn't match me," said junior Audrey Lyons, assistant director of IU Essence. "I was looking for something a little more fitting to my personality," she said. "(IU Essence) was formed for women on this campus who can't be involved in anything else. Maybe they wouldn't make other teams or they just really didn't want to do (another) style of dancing." Augustine also mentioned she wanted a type of entertainment that was not confined to performing at IU athletic events.

Augustine's first attempt to assemble dancers came through an e-mail message to each member on IU's Black Student Union mailing list. More than 100 women replied to Augustine's call for dancers, and about 80 showed up for the initial tryout session. With the help of Dr. James Mumford, director of the Afro-American Chorale Ensemble, and Gabriel Page, a member of the African American Dance Company, Augustine selected a group of 18 women for the group.

IU Essence 395

The group limited the number of women during the next two years in order to produce a more advanced group. "We were trying to get people who were trained in dance, who we didn't have to teach the basics," Lyons said. Augustine agreed with this decision. "Just because you can dance doesn't mean you can be a performer... We have to he very selective.

It takes a lot to get a person who has never had training, but has the natural ability to combine that `street' ability to dance with technique."

While rooted in the spirit of other black college dance teams, IU Essence diverged from them in many ways, offering a vitality of its own. Traditional black college dance teams often performed accompanied by marching hands. Without such a band to work with, Augustine and Lyons used poetic license to create a more hip-hop-oriented dance squad. Dancing to music by artists such as Foxy Brown, Genuine and Sean "Puffy" Combs, Augustine described the group as having "a totally different form of dance."

IU Essence succeeded in many different ways during the 1997-98 school year. It performed at a wide variety of venues including fraternity/sorority talent shows, the "Ms. Black and Gold Pageant" for Alpha Phi Alpha, "Yell Like Hell," the IU Homecoming Parade, half-time entertainment for IU women's basketball games and the IU Soul Revue.

As its audience became more diverse, IU Essence began to make a name for itself in the community.

"When we got started, initially we performed at events in the black community," Augustine said. "Now we've expanded since we've become more well-known and gotten more recognition."

Sophomore Rugayya Malik said she thought the IU Homecoming Parade highlighted the team's year, where it won "Best Marching Group." Augustine agreed, and thought the award served as positive recognition for the group, since it did not usually dance competitively.

IU Essence women practiced three days a week for two hours in order to learn and perfect its four different routines. In its four year existence, Augustine's vision had grown to include much more than she originally thought, both in the places it performed and the members it included. The fall of 1997 became the first year male dancers were included.

"Twice this year we have performed with the men, and we all love dancing together," Malik said. Many team members, including Malik, said they hoped to work more with the men in the future.

IU Essence's members made a dedication to see the team grow, and community interest was strong. Malik said she hoped membership would increase along with the recognition the team received. "I'd also like to see more support from the University," she said.111

STORY BY LYDIA RUEGER PHOTOS BY JENSEN WALKER he road to the Up and Over Stables twisted past fields, forests and away from the congestion of campus. When T the members of the IU Equestrian Club went there to practice, they left screeching tires and honking car horns behind, trading them for the simple sound of hooves against the ground. The Ellettsville stable served as the practice place for many club members since IU did not have an official stable for Equestrian riders. But the lack of University support did not stop dedicated horse lovers from pursuing a sport they enjoyed.

Their dedication paid off during the school year. The littleknown club more than doubled its membership from just a few years prior. "We are definitely on an upward trend," senior Laura McKeague, Equestrian Club president, said. "The enthusiasm is there, and we are excited."

When McKeague joined the club during her freshman year, it only had 20 active members. Two and a half years later, the club had 50 members.

Equestrian Club Vice President Teal Walker, a senior, also appreciated the group's growth. Walker rode horses since she was five and participated in shows for many years before coming to IU. She immediately inquired about a horse program her freshman year, but what she found disappointed her.

"There was no organization and no team spirit," she said. "Now there is more involvement, and it is more fun for everyone. I think we've really turned the team around.Walker said only about five or six members showed regularly at the horse meets during the 1996-97 school year.

The next year there were 25 to 30 who showed. And the increased membership meant more success for the team. In October 1997, IU's Equestrian Club won its first meet of the year at Purdue. During a meet at Taylor University, the club received the second highest number of team points from all the colleges in the region. At the end of the season, IU finished as the Reserve High Point team in the region, or second place.

This allowed IU to finish 20 points behind Purdue, which was a vast improvement over previous years. McKeague credited the victories to the higher number of riders in different divisions and ability levels, which made for a more well-rounded team.

Although several students attained individual success, McKeague said that 1996-97 marked the first year in a long time that IU's club was competitive as a team, and 1997-98 continued that trend. "Our goal was to get more people showing and that has been very successful this year," continued McKeague said.

Several students received individual recognition as well. Six riders.

Law student Heather Kenney, senior Valerie Jones, sophomore Mandy Howenstein, freshman Terri Casale, junior Sara Ivie and Walker qualified for regionals. Walker won High Point Rider in the region, which automaticall y qualified her for nationals. During finals week, Walker, Casale and Ivie travelled to nationals in New York. "This is the first time in as long as anyone can remember that the club has sent riders to nationals," McKeague said.

Casale finished third out of 16 at nationals in the novice flat division, where the rider is judged on overall appearance on the horse. The experience made Casale excited and motivated for the next season. "It was a neat experience to he able to represent our school," Casale said.

"Now that I made it this year, I want to make it next year."

IU's club members took private lessons at a barn not affiliated with the school. Most members attended lessons at Up and Over Stables, but some students made their own arrangements. Walker, for example. practiced with a coach in Indianapolis twice a week.

Without a barn of its own, the IU Equestrian Club traveled to other colleges for every show. McKeague was very frustrated with the lack of University support. Even when McKeague made arrangements to host a show at a nearby stable, the University would not sponsor it because it would be too liable. IU ended up co-hosting a show that was held at the University of Notre Dame. McKeague said this system worked but hoped that IU will be able to host shows on its own soon. "This isn't a huge area for (equestrian)," McKeague said. "There are only three schools in the region with good university support. Many of the other schools struggle along with us, but mostly with money and organization (problems), and not with university guidelines."

Stacey Hall at the Recreational Sports Office said the Equestrian Club did host shows many years ago, but new requirements from the Horse Show Association made the process more difficult. "There was a risk management issue that couldn't be ironed out in a timely fashion."

Hall said. "I know it's something they've done in the past and should be able to do in the future. - ri

ew photographs caused as much controversy among members of the Arbutus staff as this F picture of a couple sharing a private moment. Some were opposed to including it in the book, thinking it was only being used for shock value. Others thought it should be accompanied by a story about sex in the lives of college students so it would seem more relevant to students. Still others thought it should be included just like any other two-page photograph in the book. The viewpoints that the photograph brought out made us realize something more important than the issue of how to represent sex in the yearbook. We listened to the many unique voices within our small staff and came to the conclusion that we should run the picture — for the simple fact that it served as an opportunity for everyone to express their opinions. The differing viewpoints made us feel confident that we produced a yearbook that included a little piece of every staff member's vision of IU — a vision that succeeded in highlighting what was important to our campus.

Sophomore Cathy Turissini and freshman John Meehan get cozy at a bonfire in the Collins courtyard on a weekend night. Dorm residents, who often comprised much of the under 21 crowd, found ways to have fun without spending their evenings at bars. From pizza parties in dorm rooms, to groups trips to Union Board films, to all-age concerts held at residence halls, weekend nights at the dorms were never dull.

OFF CAMPUS

A student watches the NCAA men's soccer tournament at Bill Armstrong Stadium Dec. 7. Soccer fans often gathered in the parking lot of St. Paul's Catholic Center to watch games free of charge. Students had an opportunity to get in free when they showed their student ids, unless it was a tournament game. But many still chose the convenience of sitting in warm cars and watching the game from the parking lot.

As this book comes to a close, there are some things that need to be said.

To THE STAFF AS A WHOLE -Thank you for never slacking and always keeping me informed. You guys really did a good job.

Thanks also for extending your friendship to me and other staff members. For the nine months we worked together, we really did become a "family." Best of luck to all of you.

AMY — Thanks for being a perfectionist and for keeping the competition healthy between staff members.

BILL — Thanks for working so hard on marketing and copy editing. You did a great job for a novice.

CATHY WOLFE - Thanks for being more than just a yearbook rep. Your friendship and support was a comfort throughout the year.

DAVE - Thanks for the words of encouragement from overseas.

DMITRY - Thanks for being so serious all the time. You always knew how to get us slackers back in line.

JEFF - Thanks for helping me with numerous things, including driving to Kansas City. Thanks for giving me a job, and thanks for all the hard work you've done. Go White Sox! JEN — Thanks for the good times and the hard work.

KEVIN - Thanks for being my moral support and of course the design god. I wouldn't have remained sane without you.

LYDIA - Thanks for working so hard on portraits and your whole section. And thanks for holding the barbecue at your house.

PHOTOGS - Thanks for all your hard work and detailed captions. Without great photography from you all, the Arbutus would not be what it is.

Sco-rr — Thanks for getting things done precisely and on time and for being a supportive friend.

SUSAN - What can I possibly say? Thanks for all the support and understanding. We could not have gotten through this year without you.

SUSIE - Thanks for writing flawless stories and being a perfectionist. And of course, thanks for the tennis.

MONTY, GARRETT, JOAN, ANDREA AND

Thanks for rescuing me and passing along your Arbutus knowledge.

Without all of you, the Arbutus would not be what it is today.

LORI -

REMAINING ARBI,TUS AND IDS STAFF —

Thanks for all your hard work, and, of course, thanks for rescuing me and the book from any disasters.

HEI2FF JONES - Thanks for listening to all of our gripes and for doing your best to work through things.

FRIENDS AND FAMILY - Thanks to all of you who have put up with me, especially through deadline time.

Although some of you weren't here, you still listened to me bitch.

Without your love and support, I couldn't have done it.

MR. IGNAS - Thanks for tolerating me during deadline time and reminding me that I need to relax every now and then.

Without all of the above people, the 1998 Arbutus would not be possible. Thanks again, and I hope you all enjoy it!

Kathryn Knapp, editor

A special thanks to Ghostrider and Thomica from the Arbutus staff.

bought a book of quotes on the Athutits' budget, so I I feel obligated to get our money's worth. " E VERY MAN HAS THREE CHARACTERS: THAT WHICH HE SHOWS, THAT WHICH HE HAS, AND THAT WHICH HE THINKS HE HAS." -ALPHONSE KARR

(1808-1890) FRENCH IOURNALIST, NOVELIST.

Editing, whether photographs or words, can be a very subjective process. It could be debated infinitely whether with this yearbook we've showed the superficial, the truth, or someone else's perceived truth. The chances are we've done a little of all three. hanks to each and every one of you for your input, T ideas and friendship. Everyone's ideas helped make this Arbutus one of the more unique volumes in recent history. Sometimes it became a little crazy in here, and we pushed a few jokes too far. But the chaotic atmosphere arguably led to some of our more interesting work. ood luck to all of our graduating staff. In one more G year, I'll finally get to join all of you.
