Story by Brett Wilhelm Photos by Charlotte Zvan

Our last class of the day having just let out, n1y friend Char and I found ourselves dread­ing the idea of facing our ever-increasing piles of homework; we needed some kind of diversion that could, for a few hours, give more meaning to our lives than just studying. The programs on TV, as usual, were boring, mind-numbing trash, and we both felt too cool to hang out around campus with our friends. The obvious thing for us to do was to gather up some smokes, junk food, water, and a camera, fire up my jalopy and go for a road trip. Spending the last of our meager paychecks on the smokes and junk food, ready for son1e wild adventure, we buckled ourselves up in anticipation, only to discover the gas gauge resting just above E.

"Oh well," sighed Char. "I'm too lazy to really go anywhere today."

"No problem. Remen1ber, l'tn a townie. I'll take you on a guided tour of son1e cool, unknown places, and we won't even have to leave the Chucktown city litnits."

The clouds were low and dark--threatening to pour, but only intermittently sprinkling--as we drove past the Coles County fairgrounds, where a lone harness racer trotted around the race track. Turning south on Reynolds Drive, we came to a steeply inclined, one-lane wooden bridge. While waiting for the light at the foot of the bridge to turn green, Char pleaded with me to turn the car around. She has a phobia of bridges. As we passed over, the rickety timbers sounded like a stampede of wooden-shod horses, nearly paralyz­ing Char with fear. Being the typical male jerk that I am, I had to let in the clutch when we reached the top so we could roll back down and go up and over again. Poor Char.

From there Reynolds descends to a little holler­dropping and twisting better than any roller coast­er-at the bottom of which is an unnamed, little road paralleling a pollution-choked creek. At the end of this road, near the sewage treatment plant, is an old trestle , popular an1ong graffiti-spraying high school students. Despite the odor of the sewage plant run-off, we got out of the car to climb the trestle 's embankment and look down from the tracks.

17

18

The foul stench and ugly sight of polluted waters finally forced us back to the car. From there it was a short drive to one of my favorite places in Charleston: the old graveyard on Madison Avenue, near the fairgrounds. Cemeteries are fascinating places, perfect for contemplating mortality. The tombstones-eroding, breaking, orderly arranged into rows and columns- attempt to give immortali­ty to the deceased and consolation to their sur­vivors. In this particular graveyard there is a grave­stone that I find morbidly humorous. The engraved name of the deceased is STIFF. Farther back in the burial ground are headstones from the nineteenth century, many of then1 for fallen sol­diers in the War between the States. In the south­east corner is the final resting place for Dennis Hanks, "tutor of the Martyred President Abrahan1 Lincoln," who was his distant relative.

19

20

Deciding we'd had enough of the necropolis, Char and I were once again on the road, heading for the old Brown Shoe Company factory, at Rail­road and Division. Many of the windows are now broken; except for a plumbing and heating busi­ness that occupies a small wing, the building is now deserted. But, as the fading advertisements painted on the red brick walls attest, this factory once produced 7,000 pairs of shoes daily. Explor­ing the heaps of rusted and abandoned refuse under the ancient twin water towers, we heard the taunting sound of childrens' voices. We fled the scene, bound for the neighborhood north of Ted's Warehouse.

At the corner of lOth and Olive there is a dingy old foundry. Piles of coke-the type from coal­lying in open lots near the street, and layers of soot covering street signs and the bleak, grimy buildings, create an atmosphere of dismal industri­alism.

21

22

Cruising past this, we discovered a ghost from Charleston's past. Before the blight of modern progress on Lincoln Avenue and the rise of the supermarket, Charleston had over 20 neighbor­hood grocery stores, now all defunct. On the cor­ner of 11th and Vine stands an old green, tar­papered house; time-worn tin signs-one that reads "Groceries," the others advertisements for bread and milk-still hang from wall and window. If I remember right, 20 years ago there was a cool­er chest out front from which I used to buy bottled "sody-pop" for a dime.

Feeling depressed by all the scenes of pollution and decay, Char and I wanted a little nature excur­sion. Driving south on 18th, I turned east on McKinley and followed it to a gate that had the road closed off. When the road is open, you can drive down a ravine to a park area near Lake Charleston. Right next to the road, on top of the ravine where the gate is, a derelict cabin is slowly collapsing upon itself. From where part of the east wall once was, there is a beautiful view of the ravine and the lake. "Wouldn't it be great if we found a few hundred-thousand dollars?" I asked. "I wouldn't be in school," we said simultaneously.

23

The n1ention of school hatefully reminded us of papers we didn't really want to write and assign­ments we really didn't want to do. But as the red­dening western sky dropped the sun closer to the horizon we knew it was time to go home. As for finding n1ore meaning to our lives in those few hours, I'm not sure what Char meant by it's rein­forcing her philosophy of "ride the wave"-1 think it has son1ething to do with her bridge phobia. I know for me it will always be a memory of pleas­ant gloom experienced while accepting the truth about time's rolling on.

Some live in a town or city their whole lives and never take a close look around their routined) small world. Four years is a small time of your life that is devoted to being a Charleston resi­dent. Although some may have explored past Eastern's campus) others only occupy a dorm room and some dungeon-yellow classroom. Tbe town has history and beauty that is not often seen. Tbe following is a variety of what the town has to offer.

This monument located outside of the courthouse reads the inscription: "The American Legion has erected the memorial in commemoration of the patriotism, love of country and devotion to duty of our comrades who gave their lives in the service of humanity in the world war."

Charleston's present courthouse is the third in Charleston. The first courthouse was built out of logs in 1831. It was replaced in 1835 by a brick courthouse. The court­house presently used was built in 1898-1899 and is located on the town square. Photos by Gina Zvan

Since 1937, the Will Rogers in Charleston has been providing enter­tainment to Eastern students at a nomi­nal cost. Garry Gandy, manager of the theater, remembered matinees in the late 40s and early 50s being only 10 cents and a nightly show only break­ing a starving student a quarter. The biggest memory for Gandy was the theater "went from single to a double cinema." Photos by Gina Zvan

A newcomer to Charleston business is The Grape and Grain Gourmet on Monroe Street and has only been open a short eight months. Ken Knoop, owner of the specialty shop, explains the rea­son for opening such a store in Charleston as "probably insanity. " The shop has a wide variety selling "a little bit of everything from gourmet coffee, tea , beer making supplies, pasta and chocolate," Knoop explained. Photo by Marl Ogawa

The Uptowner is situated under a green awning. On their 11th year of business, business has "gotten progressively better," said Mike Knoop, owner of the tavern. He explained that food was served in 1984 in a back portion of the bar called the "Night Hawk. " Later that was torn out and it became just a bar. That isn't the only thing that changed. "When we started, I think we charged 85 cents a bottle and drafts were 35 cents ," he said. Compare those prices to the same bottles and drafts at the Uptowner today at $1.75 a bottle and $1.10 a draft! Photo by Gina Zvan

Opening last August, the Monroe Street Cafe, has a large clientele. "We have every social strata of people from college stu­dents to senior citizens," said Jim East, owner of the cafe and 1987 Eastern alumn. "Eastern students are a big part of our busi­ness. " Their menu "is extensive" and ranges from $2.50 to $12.95 Left: Photo by Dan Koonce. Above: Photo by Gina Zvan

Eastern students can thank Kirby Johnson, a junior economics major at Eastern, for opening Positively Main Street Records across from Old Main. Formerly the Athletic Department, the record shop opened last August and "it's slowly building. " The store was "built to cater to the Eastern student. " Photo by Sarah Antonio

Eastern students make up 95 percent of Midgard Comics on West Lincoln. After an opening of last October, business has been "real good," said Sandy Waters, manager of the shop. Marvel, Image and Valiant are some of the top sellers at this shop. Photo by Sarah Antonio

Linda Spence, owner of Just Spences, got involved in second-hand sales in a different way. "I went to rummage sales to get things for my kids. I didn't work, but most of my friends did. the world ask me if I could pick things up for them," she explained. "So many people were asking me to pick thins up for them, that I had to do something. I set up appointments and sold things rights out of my closet. Even that got to be too big and too much trouble. That's when I decided to open a shop. "

You're here everyday. You run to class. You sit through class taking notes and try to think what homework you still have left to do. That 10-page paper looms in the back of you mind. You might still have time to run to the library before food service closes. You dash home to grab you math homework and then you're off to the library, only to get lost in the stacks while looking for books on Communism in the study of animal husbandry. As you yell for someone to find you, you realize that this institution that they call school is whizzing by you and you haven't even had time to enjoy your home away from home. A flash goes through your mind of Eastern. You haven't even noticed there are stop signs at the intersection of Ninth Street and Edgar Ave. The new sculptures in front of Coleman have not even caught your eye. You now dream of McDonald's. Food and water are now a necessity and the thought in the back of you mind of that 10-page paper is gone. You're scared. You may never be able to enjoy Eastern, get that last ice cream cone from McDonald's, sit in the sunshine of the tree shaded quad, get a strike at University Lanes, actually find what you're looking for in the stacks, watch the ivy grow on Pemberton Hall, sit in the computer lab for eight endless hours for you computer class or even slush through the ponds that form on the sidewalks when it rains. This is when someone finds you and rescues you from the pits of Booth Library. Immediately you stumble from the darkened dungeon and walk out into the fresh air. Eastern has never looked better. So enjoy if you will, a walking tour of Eastern's campus. Now you will never have to worry about missing out on your college. It's brought to you. And one last word: BEWARE OF THE STACKS! --CATHY MYERS & RACHEL CORBETI

McAfee Gym, formerly known as the Health Education Building, was completed in 1938. The main gymnasium was

designed with balconies around the main floor and a seating capacity of about 2,200. Originally the building had a small­

er gymnasium for women with a well equipped kitchen at one end. This was where banquets were served to as many as

360 guests at one time. It also originally had a men's "corrective gymnasium," a dance studio, a suite of offices and class­

rooms.

MCAFEE GYMNASIUM McAfee is a word which comesfrom the French meaning "the building that forgot time."

located on the west side of campus by the soccer and

softball fields is the campus pond. It is a place where stu­

dents can go for a variety of activities. In the summer it is

a place for sunbathing, canoeing and sometimes even pic­nicking. In the winter it is a place to ice skate and play

hockey. When it's time for spring finals, it is also a place to

study or to relax and relieve stress. But for science majors

the pond has another use: a place to study pond scum.

Carman Hall is located on the southeast corner of cam­

pus. When looking across the Tundra, it looks like a

hospital, but it is home to most of the freshmen on cam­

pus. Inside Carman Hall may seem like a zoo to some,

but to those who live there it is a place where many

friendships are made that last throughout their college

years.

Near Old Main is the tii'M.._ __ Francis G. Blair Hall. This

building is home to soci­

ology majors. It has offices

for counselors and other

university staff. Located on

the north end of campus,

it has a classic style of

architecture that fits right

in with Pemberton Hall

and Old Main which are

both found across the

quad from Blair Hall.

0 n September 9, 1895, the site of Eastern Illinois University was decided. The chosen site was formerly called Bishop's

Woods, located at the southern edge of Charleston outside of the city limits. A little less than one year later, May 27,

1896, the corner stone of Old Main was placed. Preceding the laying of the corner-stone was an elaborate parade which

moved down sixth street from the square to the school grounds. Seven bands and 40 carriages took part in the parade

while bystanders threw flowers at distinguished guests.

When the corner stone was laid, several items were placed inside. Some of these items were a copy of the Act that

created the school, documents relating to fraternal orders, a list of the city officials of Charleston, the role of the 1896

graduating class of Charleston High School, coins, newspapers and many other items. Old Main is now the largest castle

out of all the state schools.

OLD MAIN ll 's killd qfsad that all we have to remember Stall Rives is this headstoJZe.

41

O n the north end of campus, near Old Main, is the oldest female dorm in the country, Pemberton Hall. This

four stmy building was completed in 1909. Mr. Lord, the first president of Eastern, insisted on building Pemberton

Hall. He contended that a dormitory for women was "absolutely necessary" if the school was to "cultivate in its

students the spirit that its graduates should take into their own schools, and into the communities in which they

teach." It took nearly nine years for the building to be approved and built. Even though the dorm is the oldest

female dorm in the country, on Eastern's campus it's better known for the ghost on the fourth floor. Rumor has it

that a former Eastern student was murdered in Pemberton and now roams the fourth floor.

For people who love snakes or want

to learn more about snakes, the Life

T he Martin Luther King, Jr. University Union is the center of campus life. It provides many

services and activities for the students. These services include catering, restaurants, retail

sales, recreation and meeting locations. The facility is a self-sustaining program supported

by student fees.

48

The greenhouse, which is found by the Life

Science building on seventh street, was con­

structed in 1963. What many people don't

know is that it is actually the second green­

house for the university. The original green­

house was built in 1902. Mr. Otis W. Cald­

well, Eastern's first teacher of zoology and

botany, proposed the original greenhouse so

he could use it with his classes. In 1903,

after the completion of the greenhouse, East­

ern hired the first school gardener, Walter

Nehrling. Nehrling came from the Missouri

Botanical Gardens of St. Louis and brought

with him numerous plants to stock the

greenhouse. Nehrling was also the first

helper in maintaining and improving the

appearance of the campus.

In the fall semester of 1990, the construction of the Lump­

kin College of Business was completed. Although it looks

as though it's a separate building, it is actually an addition

to Coleman Hall. The two are joined by an upper level

walkway that spans the sidewalk between the two. Lump­

kin has the newest and most up to date computer lab on

campus. Even some of the classrooms are equipped with

computers so the teachers can put examples on the

screen. Heather Klock, a junior business major, says Lump­

kin "has better facilities than other buildings and you can

learn in a hands on environment." Lumpkin also has its

own business tutors in the building and TV monitors

placed about the building that flash important notices to

business majors.

51

In the fall of 1993, Eastern's campus will be short one more residence hall. East

Hall, which is located on 12th street, will soon be the new Sigma Epsilon house.

As of this school year, only 12 out of the 40 residents of East Hall are not Sig

Eps. Mitch McGlaughlin, a resident of the dorm and a non-greek, has lived there

for two years. He thinks it's a shame that the university is giving East Hall to the

Sig Eps. "East Hall provides a unique residence hall location because of its size

and where it is located on campus," McGlaughlin said. This year, every time a

resident moves out, a Sig Ep moves in. The reason for this change is that the uni­

versity is trying to get all of the greek organizations on campus. Since East Hall is

so close to Greek Court, it was an obvious choice for the Sig Eps to move to.

Coleman Hall is the home to most speech, English, foreign language and political science majors. Coleman Hall was

completed in 1965. The building was named after the late Dr. Charles Coleman, who was a Lincoln historian and long­

time member of the History Department faculty. In 1990, an addition was added on to the building, otherwise known

as Lumpkin.

students who are married. On the southwest corner of

campus there is an apartment complex called University

The Robert G. Buzzard Building is located on the east side of campus. It was originally a grade school. Today

FFEE story & photo by

~aLll~l ~or~~~ When Robert Lynch was a freshman at Eastern Illinois University in 1926 Livingston Chester Lord, who was elected Eastern's

first president in 1895, told him "it was better for him to miss his breakfast than to come to school without a necktie. He meant it."

Sixty-six years later I'm sitting at a booth in Wrangler drinking coffee with 84-year-old Lynch. He keeps looking out the window as he talks about Eastern and his childhood and his reenrollment. I asked him if he's lived in Charleston his whole life. He chuckled and told me "not yet."

Lynch pointed to a group of Eastern students sitting across from us. They were wearing sweatshirts and jeans and smoking cigarettes.

"Mr. Lord didn't allow smoking on campus either," Lynch said. "I wonder what he'd think now?" Lynch paused and took a long drink of coffee. "When I started school at Eastern the school was only 15 years old," Lynch said. "Eastern was the only school I ever went

to. It had a grade school and a high school. I started first grade there in 1914." Eastern was a training school when Lynch attended. It has changed many times since then, Lynch said. "We went to school on Saturday and got out on Monday," Lynch said. "We walked a mile and a quarter four times a day

even when I was in grade school. I went home for lunch." The campus was between 4th and 7th and Lincoln and Edgar streets. Old Main, Pemberton Hall, Cracker Box, the power plant and Blair Hall were the only buildings on campus. Where Tarble

Arts stands and beyond there were woods. "There was also a big pond where McAfee is now." "Cracker Box, where book rental is now, was a gymnasium," Lynch said. "The power plant was right behind Old Main. It

had a little greenhouse in it." "My first day as a freshman in college I was there in Old Main. I sat there with my hand on my chin looking out the win­

dow. Mr. Lord told everyone to look over at me and asked them why they don't relax like me. "Mr. Lord knew everybody." "There were 333 people in my graduating class. That's an easy number to remember. "From first grade on, Mr. Lord would read verses out of the bible at chapel exercise. The first graders sat in front in little red

chairs. If one of the college kids did something that wasn't quite up to snuff he 'd make you sit with the first graders in those little red chairs. I had some of that. Here I was a freshman and I don't know what I did."

Lynch majored in Botany. But he'd rather work than go to school. Lynch left school before he had enough credits to gradu-ate.

"During the depression there wasn't much to do. I didn't have the money to do it anyhow. "I was working part-time at the post office making 65 cents an hour. That was good money back then. "I worked 42 years at the post office-various jobs. People moved up and I'd move up with them." Despite his job, Lynch always had time for sports. It has always been a first love for Lynch that stems all the way back to

1926. "I played baseball for Eastern-1926, 27, 28, 29. I played shortstop and third base. "Lantz was the coach. He didn't teach you much. He just took what he could get. Everyone he had was within 50 miles of

here. "I didn't play any other sports. I wasn't nine feet tall and I wasn't 200 pounds so baseball was the only game I could play. "I remember going to the (football) games when they only had three or four bleachers and we ran up and down the field

to follow the game." Lynch is still involved in Eastern sports today. "I don't miss any of the games if I can keep from it." He showed me the pan-

ther emblem on his sweater. "I like to watch women's basketball. They're aggressive, but not as rough as men's basketball." Lynch also attends the football games. '~oan [Schmidt, associate athletic director at Eastern) gets me tickets on the fifty yard line. She's right there on the forty-ninth

line." Schmidt helped Lynch reenroll after Lynch's son came to her for advice. "Bob needed 3 hours in history and technically The

Constitution to graduate. They'll probably waive The Constitution," Schmidt said. "He was a little apprehensive at first. Now he's really excited."

Schmidt contacted Kaye Woodward, director of the BOG "Kaye knew all my grades and what I needed to graduate and before I knew it I was signed up," Lynch said. "The way they

talked I was doing them a favor." Lynch works with Barbara Ulrich, graduate student, in Dr. David Maurer's history class. Ulrich is working with Lynch to "tap into his memory" about the history of Eastern and the Charleston community and

"check it with other evidence," said Maurer. "He is probably one of the few people around with that experience."

62

Lynch graduates spring 1993. "Want to see my school ID?" He carefully pulls it out of his wallet and smiles. The ID reads "part-time spring semester." Lynch finished his coffee. "You know, they give free refills here."

LEARNING: MORE THAN JUST A CLASSROOM EXPERIENCE

It is heard all around campus. a joke here, a rip there, some uncomplimentary comment about Eastern Illinois University. The text book library. Booth

Libr<lly, the Greek system, the Student Recreation Center wanting bathrooms. tuition hikes. the services and recreations in "Chuck Town. ·· the unique bar

system. special interest groups on campus. student apathy. the rationale behind the BOG system. and Eastern's academic reputation are but some of the

gripes that students here are familiar with. Yet. Eastern's enrollment stays constant during a time when freshmen enrollment is declining at other higher

education institutions in the state. Why' There·s a simple answer. . . .

All complaints aside, Eastern has much to offer its students. The goal of our university '·is to provide excellent instruction and an educationa l environ­

ment which will produce broadly educated, responsible citizens who are prepared to serve and to lead in a free society." A closer look at Eastern reveals

many strong advantages which allow all students the opportunity to grow academically and professionally.

Allowing for severa l course exceptions. tuition dollars at Eastern pay for full-fledged faculty instruction. Tuition has been rising at a rate of double to

triple that of inflation and professors are spending a minimal time in the classroom at larger, so-ca lled more prestigious. institutions. llowever, under­

graduate teaching is still important at Eastern. A moderate number of select graduate assistants are employed for eve1yone's optimal advantage and stu­

dents are getting the most for their money in the classroom. While universities with three to four times the size of Eastern's enrollment struggle to pro­

vide students with the classes they need and see getting professors back into the classroom as a necessary goal. these things are a daily rea lity at EIU.

Academic awards decorate the walls of many faculty members. Numerous instructors actively engage in research and publishing during and/ or while

on sabbatical. Look at your instructors· office doors. You may find times blocked off around classes and office hours devoted to their scholarly projects.

Ask a professor about his or her past or upcoming sabbatical. You may be surprised. as well as further excited about your own field of study. More

important, the professor you talk with will probably know your name because of the comfortable class sizes. Excellent instruction and comfortable class

size are just two positive aspects about the educational environment promoted at Eastern. ...

On the oft groomed 316 acre campus exists myriad niches for comfortable studying. Beyond the shade trees and benches that are all over campus

there is also the Union. a home away from home for many people. The Vending Lounge is also open 24 hours-- Sunday through Thursday, Friday until 2

a.m. , and Saturday 7 a.m. to 2 a.m. Students may use several computer labs located on the outskirts of campus. in Stevenson Tower and Carman llall , as

well as more centra l locations, Taylor Hall and Lumpkin llall . Evening tutors visit residence halls to help add a personal touch to living and studying at

Eastern. The counseling center also assists students in their academic and personal struggles: it is an invaluable resource.

To develop both academically and professionally. students have opportunities to become involved in social and academic and se1vice organizations,

obtain employment and participate in many other campus events and activities. Within a year or two. even the weakest resume could bulge with exuber­

ant activities, honors and awards. If it all becomes a little too much at times. the Student Recreation Center offers excellent exercise equipment in an air

conditioned environment. not to mention a large screen color television with a viewing area.

Let us venture outside the campus boundaries to see some special offerings of the town and rural areas. At 89'5 Seventh St .. the historic Dudley I louse

offers anyone interested in reading or listening to poetly this posh, city-like experience in a comfortable. casual setting for both students and the town·s

people. Rural Charleston consists of shady. winding, less traveled roads ideal for walkers, joggers and bike riders. Farther out are the pleasures of Lake

Charleston and Fox Ridge State Park. A lazy drive through the countly in solitude, or \Yith a companion. is also most rewarding.

What does all this have to do \Vith academic and professional development? The specia l recreational opportunities offered on and off campus, as well

as the aesthetically beautiful scenery, can all contribute to a happy. healthy person. These things can contribute to the pleasure and satisfaction. physical ,

mental and emotional hea lth of students. Combine these advantages with our strong faculty. and the motivated, involved student's academic and profes­

sional preparation will flourish.

WHO THOUGHT FIELD TRIPS WERE JUST FOR GRADE SCHOOL? On a clear, crisp day, 71 Eastern seniors boarded two bright yellow school buses and endured a long and bumpy ride to St.

Louis. For many of the seniors , the bus ride was a flashback to nerving the back-seat bully and relentless spit-ball fights of grade

school days.

What all these students had in common, besides sore backs and cramped legs, was the fact that they all were in the same

senior seminar class, Plants and Civilization 4011.

Three sections of the class bounded to the St. Louis Botanical Gardens and Cahokia Mounds for a day-long field trip and a

chance to ditch classes for a whole day.

Although this field trip was started three years ago, according to Dr. Speer, this was the first year that the class has taken the

field trip during the regular school year. The trip was usually taken during intersession.

·'They (students) did an evaluation of the class. They weren't excited (about the trip), but after they had been there, they really

enjoyed it," said Dr. Janice Coons, organizer of the field trip. ''It expanded their horizons. "

The field trip wasn 't all fun and games for the students in Dr. Coons ' and Dr. Spear's sections. The students in these two sec­

tions were given a four-page handout and sent out on a scave nger hunt. Plants were sniffed , leaves were felt and information was

compiled. Dr. Ebinger's class got off easier than the rest. They just sniffed and felt leaves anyway.

During their time at the Botanical Gardens, students were found feeding the many multi-colored carp, wandering through the

exotic plants in the Climatron and basking in the heat of the Desert I louse with the cacti.

·'I liked the Desert I louse the most," senior Dave Blair said. "It was really neat. "

·'The gardens were really well kept. It 's amazing that they can keep them up, .. Michael Osborn, a senior art major said.

After three hours at the Gardens, the students were once again on the buses on their way to Cahokia Mounds, home of the

Cahokia Indians from about 700 A.D. to 1500 A.D. The Cahoh::ian people are known for their huge mounds , which took hundreds

of years to build , and are still standing today.

·'J thought their way of life at that point and time was pretty advanced for that time period, .. senior Katy Lawrence said .

The students and three professors decided against climbing up the ancient mounds due to a lack of energy stemming from the

long walk around the Botanical Gardens.

·'J didn't like the fact that we didn't go climb on the mounds, '' Blair said. ·'just walking up and experiencing the climb that they

would have had to actually make, and feeling how they felt on top of their mound would have made the complete experience. "

Coons is already planning to make the trip again next year.

"Every time I teach (this class) , I try and do it. " she said. ·'As long as there's money for it. we'll do it. " By DANIEL DORT and

INTERNATIONAL STUDENTS: IN A NEW LIGHT

On m y first day o n the job at Taylor Food Service, I rea lized that I had been l iving a sheltered l ife. It was then

rea lized that no t everyone on Eastern's campus was American. Sure, I knew internatio nal students existed , but as an

English major I hadn 't come into contact with them regularl y. Food Service was my first chance to establish a friendship

with someone from a diffe rent cu lture.

Despite m y initial fea r of not being able to understand her , I decided to introd uce m yself to o ne of the Indian students

serving food. With a straining ea r I asked her her name. ·'Tasneem.·' ·'Tasneem." How many times has she had to repeat

her name since her arrival to the US' I felt terribl e, but Tasneem made the situation much easier for me. She was patient.

Once l finally understood what she was saying, and had successfully reproduced the sounds with my mouth, I continued

to repeat them over and over. All thro ugh m y shift. All the way home. Of course, I had forgo tten how to say it by the

next time I saw her. Thro ugh this Tasneem knew I was interested and the p erseverance p aid off.

Tasneem Arsiwalla is a graduate student in the Business d epartment. H er ho m eland is Bombay, India, but she doesn 't

necessaril y plan to return there after the completion of her master 's degree. She is curious as to wha t the business world

has to o ffer her in the United States.

Tasneem ca me to the United States because she believes that the higher educat io n system is better than that o f India.

She attributes this difference to the student to professor ratio . She believes that the United States is typically lower.

America's educa tional system seems quite different than India 's to Tasneem . ·'The relationships between the professors

and their students" is what she finds the most different. Relatio nsh ips are much m o re informal in the United States "!Jere

the pro fessors are constantly offering you help. 'Let me know if you need help with anything.· and so o n. They are not as

friendly back home."

I found that Tasneem ·s rich culture had a lo t to offer me . For instance, I never thought about other cultures still practic­

ing the tradition of arranged marriages. This is still done in India. Many yea rs ago marriages were arranged aro und the

time o f birth. Parents and famil y m embers would spread the word around town that they were look ing for a mate for their

newborn child . The main o bjective of this practice was •·to keep the community going," Tasneem explained . Therefore,

prospective mates were almost always m embers of the sa m e community as the parents o f the infant.

Toda y , altho ug h marriages are still arranged, there arc a few differences in the tradition. In the Indian culture marrying

age is 20 and above. It isn 't until this time that the arranging process begins. Tasnecm said that the one doing the arrang­

ing will often directly ask the young m~tn or woman for preferences. Most times they even ask if the young perso n has

anyone already in mind. Another difference is that o nce the arrangement has been made, the couple may back o ut. I f after

spend ing some time with the perspective m ate they find that they do no t get along, they may ca ll the arrangement off.

After speaking with Tasneem, I rea lized that arranged marri ages arc not equated w ith lack of cho ice. She h as helped to

rid me some of m y igno rance, and now m y sheltered life has been expanded by my experience with this interna tional stu­

dent from Bombay. ller faith in our educa tional system has cha llenged me to appreciate it in a new light, and to under­

stand the presence of the close-to- 100 internationa l students o n our campus from all over the world. By ELIZABETH

MORTAR BOARD STRIVES FOR EXCELLENCE What does Eastern have in common with Northwestern , Emoty, Cornell, Washington University, and Case Western Reserve'

Eastern now boasts its own chapter of Mortar Board.

"Mortar Board, Inc. , is a national society of college seniors recognized for their superior scholarship, outstanding and continual

leadership, and dedicated service to the college or university community. "Oh, and why the name Mortar Board? A mortarboard is

the square cap worn by graduates during the commencement ceremony; it is "a symbol of ancient honor and distinction among

scholars. "

Currently, 201 of America 's finest higher education institutions have an active chapter of Mortar Board. Eastern was the only uni­

versity added to the national chapter roll in 1991.

What makes this organization unique is the ideals and purposes set forth by its constitution , and strived for by its members.

Some of these goals are emphasizing ·'the advancement of women, " the promotion of ·'equal opportunities among all people, " and

an emphasis on "diversity in membership. ··

For the last two years , under the title Mortar Board , qualified students have been sponsoring service activities in the campus

community. However, since 1986 a Tassels Chapter of Mortar Board has been building the foundation for the present organization.

National regulations require that a perspective university maintain an active junior chapter for five years , which is called a Tassels

Chapter. Then they can be granted the full -tledged Mortar Board Senior Honor Society.

So, what is this group about? What is it doing' How can you get involved? To qualify for induction into Mortar Board a student

must be of junior standing with a GPA of approximately 3.5 or higher. Coupled with the academic qualifications , a student must

have outstanding extra-curricular performance with some histoty of volunteer work. At present, there are 31 active members.

Active is the key word. There are mandatoty monthly meetings and projects. Alecia Mapes, President of Mortar Board for the

1991-92 school year, says that the attendance policy is designed "to accommodate every member's busy schedule. Members who

can not attend the set meeting have 24 hours before and after the meeting to contact an officer and be excused. "

Some of the goals that Mortar Board will pursue this year are establishing ·'a solid foundation for our young chapter .. to provide

the future chapters less burdening methods of attaining Mortar Board 's goals." Mapes also said that Mortar Board will continue to

further and uphold the "ideals in the constitution." And on the local level they will conduct ·'a community service project (helping

the Charleston food pantry) , a campus service project (Blood Drive) , and a fundraiser each semester. We also hope to incorporate

a social function or two in the year's agenda ," Mapes said.

Does this sound worthwhile and fun' Mapes says, ·'Mortar Board is also looking for dedicated , motivated members who will

canyon the Mortar Board tradition. " If a student would like to join this 77 year old national senior honor society, keep watching

for the invitation in your mail , get involved , and continue your pursuit for academic excellence. By LARRY IRVIN

AN ENCOUNTER WITH A FRESHMAN'S DECISION As I sit here at the library quad, I observe the many faces that go by. It makes me wonder as students come and go if they've

finally settled on a major, or if they are just as undecided as they were when they first arrived. Yes, I know that some have declared majors, but you must realize that the true majority are those who have not. I Iowever, I have come across one particular student who has declared and remains determined to stick with her major. Her name is Lisa Bliznik and she is a freshman here from Ca lumet City, !II. Lisa majors in Speech Communications. I have spoken with Lisa about her major, why she chose it, and what she plans to do with it. This is what she had to say:

Tasha: So Lisa, what is your reason for choosing speech commun ications as your major?

Lisa: I chose speech communications as my major because I want to be a sports broadcaster.

Tasha: Were you in any way influenced to choose this particular major? Why or why not?

Lisa: Since 1982, when Ryan Sandberg appeared on the Chicago Cubs, I've been influenced. His work eth ic and consistent, quality performance was amazing. But basically I realized that I wanted to be a sports broadcaster one morning when I woke up. It sounds weird , but it 's true.

Tasha: We've come to understand that some students declare majors, yet drop them by the next semester, or year. What do you say to that?

Lisa: Some people are confused when they get here and they don 't know what they want to do with their lives. It 's a tough decision to make, because then you have to live with it.

Tasha: Is there any chance that you will change your major'

Lisa: I highly doubt it. It's something that I want to do because I love sports, and I can see myself broadcasting sports for the rest of my life.

Tasha: Ilow do you plan to contribute your future career to our society?

Lisa: I wou ld like evetyone, especially women, to know that they can do anything that they set their minds to.

Tasha: Was there a time when you were not supported in your career choice? If so, why?

Lisa: Yes, lots of times. I even felt that I would not be up to it sometimes. Every time I told someone what I wanted to be they would tell me th~tt I would never make it as a woman, and that I would never do it because 1 didn 't have what it took.

Tasha: What do you hope to accomplish when you are a sports broadcaster?

Lisa: Of course, I hope to be successful. I want to broadcast for major-league sports teams (preferably the Cubs). Nothing minor­league type. (laugh)

Tasha: Speaking hypothetically, now that you are a broadcaster, what would you like to impart to those who didn 't believe in you'

Lisa: 1 told you to wait ancl see (laugh) ancl now I'm here.

Well it seems that Lisa definitely knows what she wants in life. Remember, not everyone comes to college undecided or decid­ed , only to later change their major. The proof of that is apparent in our interview with Ms. Bliznik. It is also obvious that she is an independent and determined young lady who, if given the oppottunity, will become one of the best sports broadcasters ever known. With her vitality , never eri.ding love of sports, and constant talk, she will definitely be a force to reckon with. By TASHA FORTE'

BOOTH LIBRARY: CHECK OUT THE SERVICE

Booth libra1y offers many fantastic services to Eastern students and other patrons, one of which is Circulation. Sue Ellen Eggers

is the night time circulation supervisor at Booth library. She has worked there for the past eight years. Eggers's department head is

jane Lasky of Circulation and Interlibrary loan. Eggers thinks of herself as a trouble shooter in the evenings and takes pride in

upholding the library's strick policy of confiscating fake student identification. Eggers is in charge of computer input of fines and

lost book billings. Fifteen to twenty students are under Eggers's supervision who assist patrons and other students in checking out

and returning books. Eggers's subordinates also reshelve checked-in reading material in stacks.

People who use the lil":mlly and its facilities range from junior high students to senior citizens. Many residents of Charleston take

advantage of what Booth has to offer by getting a patron card to check materials out. Booth library is open almost year round for

students and patrons with validated I.D.s. On the average, 500 to 1000 books circulate per day through Booth during the school

year which keeps Eggers very busy.

Eggers loves her job and enjoys working with and assisting students at Booth. In the years Eggers has been at Booth , she

noticed that the students never change but the issues do. Eggers can tell by the books that are checked in and out at Circulation.

Some years ago, cook books were much more popular than they are now. Back then , books on AIDS, date rape or computers

were rarely checked out. Eve1y possible subject that could be in a book has been checked out at one time or another through

Eggers. Nothing really surprises Eggers when it comes to subject matter at Booth.

Some improvements at Booth have been the updating of the computers. Librarians can keep better ·' tabs" on books clue to

improved computer technology. Eggers 's job is much more detailed than when she first started at Booth. Due to the improve­

ments, students can find books easier by using the systems available. lnterlibraiy loan is much more efficient and students can get

materials faster clue to the expansion and progress.

At one time or another almost every student has to ~IS a question at the desk, Eggers has a few favorites. ·'Is the xerox machine

broke~'" ·'Where's the library lecture hall~'" ·' Is this Circulation~'" "Do you have any change'" ITer most common responses are ''Go

to reference" and ·'T~1ke your pop to the vending machine lounge, please ...

Overall , Eggers thinks Eastern students are polite and courteous. They are eager to learn once they can figure out the computer

system. Eggers is happy to be at Booth and is almost always seen with a smile. Booth library has much to offer students. Eggers is

just a small but intricate part of the ·' library pulse. " All the services offered merge together to give Eastern students a dignified and

extremely useful resource center. Circulation is just a part of what Booth is. Eve1yone should take advantage of and ·'check out"

Booth library. Don 't expect Eggers to break a dollar for the xerox machine though, she never gives anyone change, only charm

and that sweet smile of service. By AAR ON LENAGHAN

THE DOG ATE MY DISK AND MY PENS AND MY ... Everyone has used excuses to get out of class, but obviously some students are a little more unique.

Don't try these excuses at home, they have been known to backfire.

First prize for the most creative excuse goes to a former student of Mike Chron, speech communica­

tions. This student informed Chron that he could not g ive his speech that day because there was a full

moon. After being told the penalty, Wolf-boy changed his mind.

Some students go to great lengths to skip class. Another speech student called Chron from Chicago

saying there was a family emergency. The phone cal l sounded authentically long distance, so she was

excused . Later that day he ran into the student off campus. She then confessed to using the old-hanky­

over-the-phone trick. Nice ny.

Dogs have been known to eat homework, but in the last few semesters their appetites have worsened.

One dog in particular had a taste for discs, according to Dr. Guzlowski of the English department. Other

dogs have turned down Alpo for accounting books and book bags. One very peculiar dog ate every pen

in the house, imagine that.

Isn 't it funny how the power always goes out the night before that huge paper is due. And alarm

clocks seem to malfunction only on the mornings of big tests. One student in effort to make up for being

late came up with, ·'My roommate's boyfriend turned off my alarm clock." She wishes to remain anony­

mous in case she needs ro usc it again.

If you have to use an excuse, it might as well be a good one. Take it from these students. Your teach­

er may go easy on you if they find your excuse amusing. By MICHELLE R. HOKE

NOT JUST A CLUB: A REAL CHILD EXPERIENCE As the Association of Childhood Education International celebrates its centennial this year, education majors from Eastern and

universities throughout the United States continue to gain more information to help their educational future.

Julie Ertha!, ACE! historian, said Eastern has the largest student branch of ACE! with 250 me mbers involved. She said this is a

"wonderful accomplishment for Eastern."

ACE! was founded in 1892 by two organizations, the rational Kindergarten Union and the National Council of Primary Educa­

tion , Enhal said. Eastern's branch was founded in 1950.

The organization is available to education majors, which includes early childhood, elementary and secondary education majors.

Ertha! added most students involved are early childhood or elementary education majors.

"By joining the organization, they (education majors) acquire needed skills and information to benefit their educational future,"

Ertha! said.

The executive members of ACE! are Anne Chamberlain, president; Debbie Foote, vice president; Tricia Durkin , treasurer; joAnn

Bell , secretary and Julie Ertha!, historian. ACEI is also headed by three advisors: Dr. Carol Helwig, Dr. Mary Ellen Varble and Dr.

Susan Brown-Sandberg.

Chamberlain said the purpose of ACEI is ·'so that elementary and early childhood majors can work more with the community

and work more in their area."

Different speakers talk on Eastern 's campus about different aspects of teaching. Ertha! said students have hea rd motivational

speakers and at-risk speakers who speak out about at-risk students.

One of the special speakers who came to Eastern was Edward M. Schroeder, winner of the Outstanding Teacher Award of 1991.

Schroeder presented a motivational talk to students on how to be an effective teacher and why one should teach.

The ACE! also regularly holds book sales and puppet sales on campus.

To help education majors gain experience working with students, the ACEl has two programs, the adopt-a-student program and

mini-courses program. In the adopt-a-student program, ACEI members go to the schools and adopt one or two students. Once a

week they visit their student and plan activities with them.

With the mini-courses program, college students teach special workshops after school for the children. Some of the workshops

college students have held focused on creative writing, crafts, basketball and aerobics, Ertha! explained.

·'Through mini-courses and adopt-a-student, students are able to work one-on-one with grade school children," Chamberlain

explained.

ACE! also stays involved with other national chapters by attending conferences held throughout the United States. Last April , 10

officers from Eastern's chapter attended an international conference in Chicago, where 2000 members of celebrated ACEI's 100th

birthday. Ertha! said another conference will be held in Arizona.

Ertha! described the many topics which are discussed at the conferences such as educational research findings, new techniques

to use in the classroom and how to motivate students. Members share ideas with other teachers and find out about new teaching

products. Also, members who attend try to motivate one another.

Chamberlain, who attended the conference in Chicago, said she gained ·'a lot of ideas from teachers and students. It was very

informing. "

Varble, one of ACET's advisors, said ACEI is "a n association for students and teachers working with young children. They get a

chance to interact with teachers , and the meetings they attend gives them confidence and information about the teaching field. "

IWAS GOING TO DO MY HOMEWORK BUT ........ . What another test? Oh, that 's Two weeks away. So let's just skip English 101 until the test. No problem. Two weeks pass by and it 's th

night before the test. There are only eight chapters, I'll just skim the chapters and ace this test. Wrong! Could this be an example of pro­

crastination? Yes.

Most people who procrastinate waste valuable time doing nothing. They listen to music, watch television, sleep or find other things to

do instead of doing what really needs to be done. Instead many procrastinators find themselves cramming for a test or writing a paper th

night before.

Bud Sanders, counselor, said , "If studying becomes a habit, you 're not as likely to procrastinate. Students who do things at the last

minute and simply 'get by' with mediocre work will fall into that same trap. If a student didn 't 'get by' in the first place, they might not

learn to procrastinate .. ,

Procrastinating can be very easy to do, especially in college. "College is an inviting trap for procrastination. Students seem to have an

idea that something miraculous will happen, a bolt of lightening or something, and the work will get done for them," Sanders said.

Time management skills help some students avoid procrastination. Kathleen O 'Rourke, a junior family service major said , "When I was

a freshman I used to procrastinate really bad. I would wait until the very last minute and this would cause too much stress. Therefore, I

decided to learn how to manage my time and that is really all there is to it. Time management is the key."

O 'Rourke attributed settling into college as a way to learn time management skills. "Everyone procrastinates once in awhile, I even do,

but I feel that once you are comfortable with college life there just isn't room for procrastination ."

Sanders offered advice for students who haven 't learn time management skills. "Students should break large tasks down to small ones.

If a student has a term paper due at the end of the week, it seems like a lot of work to do in one night. But if he breaks the paper down

into small steps it would be easier to accomplish ," he said.

While putting homework off to the last minute seems so typical for many college students, listening to Sanders advice could help. And

my advice ...

When the weekend approaches , starting with Thursday, maybe one should think twice before going out. Save those quarters and buy

yourself a pizza instead of going up to Mother's, Thirsty's or Roes for quarter beers. Now there is time to study, so there is no room for

procrastination. The bars will always be here, but if you procrastinate you might not.

"I can 't procrastinate as much as I used to do. Everyone procrastinates once in awhile, but I tty to get my homework done before I g

out," O'Rourke said.'' After all , an education is what we are here for. You just have to practice more time management skills and make

lists of everything that needs to get done."

So one might say, "Oh I'll study tomorrow it 's nickel beers at Thirsty's or quarter beers at Mom's. But when tomorrow comes the sam~

thing happens- the work doesn 't get completed. Procrastination is vety easy to do. just remember to manage your time and set goals s

you won 't have to procrastinate anymore. By KELLY K. BERRYMAN

MUSIC MAJOR: NOTES ON A MAJOR SCALE Most people cringe when they remember their dreaded piano lessons that their mom made them take as a 8-year-old. Surpris­

ingly, some people actually did like them and continued their lessons through the years until they even made it their decision for

their career.

Playing the violin comes naturally to Rebecca Walker, a sophomore music major from Zion , Ill. Although unsure if she will pur­

sue a career in music, Walker said she is happy studying it for now.

·'Right now, I 'm studying music because I love it," Walker said. She believes that every person should develop his or her talents ,

and music is her contribution to that belief.

Walker was raised in a musical family. I Ier parents were both piano majors in college. However, Walker says that her parents

didn't really influence her to go into music. Although her parents didn 't influence her, her 91-year-old violin teacher did.

"1 took her for granted when I was young," said Walker. ·'She insisted that I had this potential. "

During the summer of 1989, she proved her potential. She auditioned for the Midwest Chamber Players and ended up touring

seven European countries with them.

Aside from playing the violin, Walker plays the piano, organ and keyboards. She also sings in concert choirs and on her own. In

addition, she enjoys putting on recitals and playing guest violin solos. Recently , Walker was a semi-finalist in Eastern's Concerto

Competition.

When she is not practicing, Walker plays in the Eastern Community/ College Orchestra and she plays the organ at Trinity Luther­

an Church in Mattoon. When she is not playing or singing music, Walker enjoys water skiing, soccer and poetty.

In addition to music, Walker has an interest in English. In fact, she is considering doubling her music major with English.

"My English teachers in high school were adamently against my going into music," she explained. 'Tve always felt pulled

between the two."

As for the present, Walker is content with music. ·'When you ask me why I continue to study music, 1 can 't do anything but

laugh a little, shrug and admit that I do it-however trite it may sound-simply because I love it,., Walker explained. By JEN­

ACTING ClASS: A DRAMATIC EXPERIENCE The setting: An area of life among a cluttered framework of back drops , props, scripts and characters. The

classroom portrays the building blocks of the theatre auditorium as students develop character of the abstract.

"Get the feel of it ," said Clarence Blanchette , theatre arts professor. Earth tones such as brown, black and dark

green are commonly worn by the imaginative theatre students.

Childhood Drama is a popular class among a variety of majors including: recreation , special education and the­

atre arts. "Society is a cooperative adventure ," Blanchette said.

Blanchette emphasizes the importance of people skills and the strong need to exchange ideas with one another.

"We 're lacking community in our society. In theatre arts , that 's all we are." He contends that theatre is a good way

to motivate audiences to become actively involved in life. "You can be anybody that you 're not ," said junior the­

atre major Scott Anna.

"Swine just want to have fun " was the title of this year 's Childhood Drama semester project of a 12 region ele­

mentary school tour. Its purpose , according to Blanchette , is to experiment with different acting appeals and to

distinguish and interpret different styles which spark audience motivation , as well as "to learn about other peoples

needs and wants .. ,

With regard toward the media , Blanchette says that audiences need to do more than just speculate , they need to

take up an interest. "We need to get them to be more involved ," Blanchette said.

Rehearsal is where students collectively shape their character molds and develop a sculptured performance. "A

cooperative spirit is good ," Blanchette said.

By means of a "working unit " students mentally connect with each other. "You have to know the people you ' re

with. Weak spots show ," said jason Winfield , junior theatre arts major.

Blanchette encourages students to expect the unexpected when the curtain rises. "Performance is a very chal­

lenging moment ," Winfield said.

Likewise, coordination is the key to making a performance come to life. ''Always be alive. This can only be if

you're in tune with one another, " Blanchette said.

So as the curtain closes , or as class comes to an end , each student comes away with a bit of insight toward a

collective whole. "Everything we do is a society in miniature ," Blanchette said.

As the art of human expression , theatre assumes a dedication to preserving communitive efforts within individu­

al roles. All in all It 's the message of a performance that 's most memorable. "It 's important to relay a message ,"

concluded Winfield. By DENISE SLADKY

TAKE A WALK ON THE WILD SIDE "Over the river and through the woods to Gatlinburg, Tenn. we go."

This was what some Botany Club explorers were saying as they ventured on their annual Smoky Mountain Expedition. The

annual trip to the Smokies has proved to be the highlight of the Botany Club's events.

There are normally 25 active members that participate in Botany Club events. According to President Jeff White, "The Botany

Club is open to everyone. It is not restricted to just botany majors .. ,

At Botany Club meetings, speakers are invited to talk on issues concerning pesticides, greenhouses, landscaping and a variety of

interesting topics. Aside from their educational events, they also move outdoors for the fall field trip to McCormick's Creek in

Spenser, fnd.

What makes the Smoky Mountain Expedition the highlight of the Botany Club? Senior Chris Marin said, "The scenery was just

beautiful. The wildlife there can not be found anywhere else in the United States. Throughout the trip, we learned how to apply

what we studied in school to help our survival in the great outdoors. "

The purpose of the trip is to provide both an educational and recreational experience. Many explorers enjoyed birdwatching,

identifying wild flowers and hiking in the mountains. "The hike was not your average trail. The terrain was quite demanding and

after hiking our bodies ached for days," White said.

·'f enjoyed the closeness among our small groups," said jennifer Carlson, a botany graduate student.

The students and professors were able to get to know each other ve1y w ell in only f ive days. "The people clown there were

always very friend ly to us,"· Carlson said.

Everyone who participated in the Smoky Mountain Expedition felt it was a worthwhile experience that they would never forget.

Along with their annual Smoky Mountain fielcltrip, Botany Club participates in other events that benefit both Eastern's campus

and the Charleston community. For example, many students may have had a ·'taste"' of the Botany Club Cookbook. Members put

together their favorite recipes and the club used the book as a funclraiser for the local food pant1y.

THEATRE MAJORS LEARN 'MAKING UP' IS HARD TO DO ·'[ have to make sure evetything is off before I leave the theatre or go to the bars," said Chris Pomeroy sophomore theatre and

English major and guard No. 1 in Antigone. "After one of the performances the cast went out in full makeup and that was okay. "

Pomeroy said he thought wearing stage makeup was "kind of stupid in high school. "

According to Assistant Professor Marjorie A. Ouehmig, theatre makeup does not have as much emphasis today as it did in the

past.

·Today's theatre has a much more natural look, " Duehmig said.

·'For our first project [in Duehmig's theatre makeup class] we made a mask of our own face with plaster of paris," Pomeroy said.

Students also learned how to create scars, bruises and severed limbs in Duehmig's class, sa id Pomeroy.

Makeup takes a lot of planning, sa id Susan Palchak freshman theatre major. "You have to do a character study in order to help

decide the makeup," Palchak said.

The makeup, according to Palchak, is just as important as the costuming in setting the time frame and determining the personal-

ity of the character.

Makeup must also be planned around the lighting system, Palchak said.

·'Evetything has to be just right," Palchak said. "If the makeup is s lightly off, it can throw evetything off."

Palchak sa id a simple design took her over an hour to complete because she is still a beginner. "But as you become better (at

applying the makeup) it won't take as long."

Ouehmig also taught actors how to do their own makeup for a show, Pomeroy said.

Pomeroy applied his own makeup for Comedy of Errors, Vampire Lesbians of Soclom as well as for Antigone; but for Antigone

he had his own makeup.

"I had to put base all over my head because the skin on my head was white as a baby's butt because I shaved my head for the

part," Pomeroy sa id.

How does Pomeroy feel about stage makeup now' "I have to do it. It's just a part of theatre." By CHRIS WEHDE

CRAMMING: IS IT A FRESH IDEA? It's three o 'clock Monday morning and you are still awake, barely. You feel like your eyelids are made of sandpaper. To an

innocent bystander your chant of HCL-NaOH-CaO ... would sound like the last song before a trip to the asylum. Your skin is

crawling from an extreme dose of caffeine. Why are you torturing yourself? Because you decided to spend quality (yeah right)

time with your friends rather than study for your EIGHT O 'CLOCK I THE MORNING chemistry test. Imagine that.

If you do this, don't think you are alone. The majority of college students partake in this character building ceremony,

known as cramming. And to top that, most agree they receive better grades if they wait until the last minute.

"If you study at the last minute, it's still fresh in your mind," says freshman speech communications major Laurel Lipinski.

"There's too much pressure when I really study-1 fold, " says freshman special education major Zach Crowl.

Cramming is not limited to the less experienced, however, upperclassmen do it too.

"There are a lot of classes that I don't study for at all and do well, " Rob Lyman, junior Economics major, said.

Although most students feel they do better when they cram, beliefs differ.

"When I cram for a test I go over the material too fast and end up forgetting everything anyway," said Nancy Hryszczuk, a

junior speech communications major.

Junior Environmental Biology major Kendall Clark said, "I crammed for a chemistry II test and failed miserably. "

Obviously cramming does not work for everyone. Our friend Kendall should have taken advice from Doug Ehens, a junior

pre-engineering major. "I crammed until five o 'clock in the morning, realized I didn't know anything anyway and dropped the

class that morning. "

Okay, maybe that's not the best advice , but it makes a good story. By MICHELLE R. HOKE

TWO TEACHERS REVEAL THE SIGNIFICANCE OF FILM Film has captured the images of stars from yesteryear and contemporary times. These stars have brought tears and laugh­

ter to the movie watchers everywhere. Yet, some people don't realize that there are stars who aren't in the spotlight who are

involved in the film making process. They are the people who have chosen to communicate to others their views on what the

film is all about.

Eastern faculty members Ted Quinn and Joe Heumann are two people who have chosen to dedicate part of their lives to

explaining the significance of movies and their role in society. Quinn and Heumann's involvement in film began at the Univer­

sity of Iowa.

Quinn feels that films are a sensual medium that present a more profound idea than any other form of medium. "They are

exciting to the senses and to the mind. " Quinn has been at Eastern for 20 years and has taught film classes and done some

experimental work with Super 8 equipment.

Quinn and Heumann don't really have a favorite actor or actress, they see the director as the most important person

involved.

Heumann had an interest in photography and film as an undergraduate and decided to pursue these interests at graduate

school. He has been an active part of the Eastern's television station, WEIU, for the past seven years.

Quinn and Heumann worked collaboratively on the Film Society, which originally charged students a dollar to see films.

These showings drew crowds of up to 100 people. Unfortunately, in the past 10 years the film society has declined because

the university didn't have the funding to support it.

Even though the Film Society is no longer funded by the university, Heumann still shows films in Booth Library on Tues­

days and Thursdays free of charge.

What the future holds for either of these gentleman is hard to predict but someday their names may be in lights. By DAN

1HE HIRAMF.1HUf GREENHOUSE: 1HE ROOT OF IT Although Kermit the Frog once said "It's not easy being green," the Hiram F. Thut greenhouse radiates a bouquet of

life to the Eastern community and its visitors.

According to Botany professor and greenhouse manager Steven Becker, Eastern's greenhouse is a prominent garden

collection. "Our living plant collection is generally comparable to the University of Illinois," he said. "Unfortunately

many people are unaware of the rather extensive collection we have," Becker added.

Bananas, pineapples, mangos and tobacco are just a few of the things growing on inside this garden of wonder. For

instance did you know that the coffee bean is actually red when ripened?

Accented by a waterfall and a basin of several types of fish, one cannot help feeling a sense of serenity. Becker

recalled seeing a woman from Indonesia who would regularly have lunch by the waterfall. "She said the tropical envi­

ronment reminded her of home," he remembered.

On the same token of sentiment, exquisite trees located within the green house vicinity have been dedicated in the

memories of EIU faculty members David Murphy and Gene Kreihbel.

Aside from the aesthetic pleasure it provides, the Hiram F. Thut Greenhouse is a resource facility that supports the

life sciences by means of class projects and research, Becker said. He added that two-thirds of the plants obtained are

among a permanent collection kept for teaching purposes. "We have almost all of the typical plants that one might find

in garden shops and in stores," Becker said.

In general, the greenhouse is a budding source of enjoyment for all. According to Becker, school groups, garden

clubs, and other organizations tour the EIU facility about once a week on average during the Spring season. Stemming

from its beauty, the Hiram F. Thut Greenhouse is a growing nature waiting to be appreciated. "Visitors are most wel­

come," Becker said. By DENISE SLADKY

WHAT DO YOU CALL A BLONDE CHEMISTRY MAJOR? Just a plain old stereotype. Everyone is aware of them, but how fair and accurate are they'

According to Websters Ninth New Colligiate Dictionary, a stereotype is a "standardized mental picture that is held in common by

members of a group and represents an oversimplified opinion, affected attitude or uncritical judgement. "

People stereotype everyone from jocks to nerds. Stereotyping occurs regularly and people often do it in their everyday conver­

sation.

Stereotyping b londes is common. For example, everyone has heard at least one blonde joke. What do you call a brunette stand­

ing in between two blondes? An interpreter. We have all heard this joke or similar jokes and laughed . However, most of us know

an intelligent blonde, so why do we find this stereotype humorous1

]ana Schwalb, a blonde sophomore psychology major said, "people do not give me credit for anything good or intelligent that I

do. But as soon as I do something wrong they blame it on my being blonde. The stereotype really does not bother me, it is just

something to make fun of. "

When you think of a chemistry major, what comes to mind1 A mental picture of 2 mad scientist working on a potion to destroy

the world or a person in a white lab jacket equipped with pocket protector. How true is this' Do chemistty majors do nothing else

but sit around and mix chemicals?

Sean Martinie, a sophomore chemistty major said , "stereotypes are not totally unfounded. They are not wrong when describing

a group but individually people within the group can be different. " Look beyond the stereotype and you might find a chemistty

major sitting next to you at four o'clock club.

A third stereotype common on campus is one of sororities and fraternities. The belief is that in order to belong to one you must

be stuck-up or snobby. Contrary to the stereotype, many people in these organizations are friendly down-to-earth people. Tina

Tabar, a junior transfer student and a member of Alpha Sigma Tau , said , "stereotypes come from people who are uneducated and

do not take the time to get to know people (within the stereotype)."

Stereotypes are common. Everyone belongs to one, whether you are blond, a chemistty major or belong to a sorority or fraterni­

ty someone will classify you. There is no getting around it. Someone, somewhere will categorize you. This categorization can hin­

der possible friendships and relationships.

Usually stereotypes come from one experience with one person or event. People should take the time and look beyond the

stereotype. Get to know people for who they are and not for what they belong to, look like, or want to do with their life. By

COUNSELING CENTER PROVIDES HELP MANY WAYS Having tro uble? Need to talk to someone? Want to figure your life o ut? There's answers to these q uestio ns at East­

e rn's Counseling Cente r. This is the place whe re students find a fa miliar and comfortable place to sit and ta lk w ith a

trained counselo r.

Stude nts who choose to go to the Counseling Cente r may have an appo intment w ith a counselor o r can use the com­

pute rs downsta irs fo r info rmatio n o n career and fie ld of study opportunities. The services re ndered the re a re but only

be neficial to students .

Dr. Bud Sande rs is one of the Counselo rs on staff at the Center and has been there for 21 years . Receiving his mas­

te r's degree in guidance and counseling and a Docto rate from University of Illinois in psychology, he o n average has

about 20 to 25 stude nts a day come to see him. Most of the counselo rs have the same amo unt of students da ily.

"We hope stude nts wo uld try to work o ut any proble ms they have o n thei r own and w he n that doesn 't seem to work

we hope that by coming he re one of the counselors can assist them ," Sanders said. "The most common p roblem o n

campus that stude nts tend to have is broke n re la tio nships, along w ith mo re serio us issues like eating disorders, anxiety

and depressio n. The majo ri ty o f the stude nts who go to the Cente r with these type o f proble ms are fe males."

Students are guaranteed confidentiality with a ny issue they may bring to a counselo r. The help a student receives is

no t medical but what Sande rs re ferred to as "short term problem solving." According to Sanders, some s ituations do

become involved and may call for more serio us atte ntion such as suicides. In the past year there have been no cases

re ported of suicide on Easte rn 's campus, sa id Sande rs.

Sande rs believes that the majo rity of the issues students o n campus face today is a beca use " kids are experimenting

w ith drugs and sex a t a much younger age .

"Whe n you do that you pay the price for it ," he said. "Back whe n I was in college things were so much easier

because the re just were n 't many concerns of diseases and drugs like the re are today, and w ith all the present issues it's

no wo nder young people might have a ro ugh time coping. "

He believes the stress levels of young people today is drastically high in comparison to back when he was young.

Aside from individ ual sessions, the cente r has also provided sup p o rt g ro ups for people w ith eating disorders, victims

of sexua l assa ult, family proble ms and most presently gays and lesbians. Students should fee l free to inq ui re about such

g roups o r assist in o rganizing anothe r one.

The Counseling Cente r is a beneficial place for stude nts w ho fee l the need to seek counseling for any issue. The

center is the re to find support groups fo r inte rested stude nts. The fac ilities located downstairs of the Cente r can he lp

students resea rch the ir fie ld of study and ca reer oppo rtunities. This is especia lly good for students who are undecided

on a majo r.

The Counseling Cente r has many diffe re nt ways to reach o ut to the stude nts at Easte rn. It can not o nly he lp you

straighte n o ut a proble m but he lp you make better decisio ns with you life. By HEATHER CLYDE

PROFESSOR FINDS DREAMS CAN TEACH Have you ever had a dream where you knew you were dreaming? This is called a lucid dream. In a lucid dream you can control

your actions and surroundings.

With this control you can chase away your attackers or change your Mazda into a Masserati. But according to Dr. Russell Gru­

ber, you can use these dreams to teach yourself to become assertive.

Dr. Gruber is an assistant professor in the psychology department researching dreams and dreaming styles at Eastern. He began

the collection of information through surveys in 1982 at the University of Cincinatti and brought the research here in 1990.

Through studies, Dr. Gruber and associates proved that you can induce lucid dreams by using presleep suggestion. So if you

talk yourself into a lucid dream, you can reenact things in your sleep with complete control of yourself. This could teach you con­

fidence and prepare you for future events.

Studies show that people who have these dreams often have developed a sense of observation and self-reflection. Both traits

help in college life , where we could all use a little self-reflection.

Dr. Gruber has found a connection between nightmares and a high level of anxiety. They occur more often when you are under

a lot of stress. That monster in your dreams might just be telling you to take some time out of your day to relax, and you had bet­

ter not argue with a monster.

Our waking personalities tend to show in our dreams, according to Dr. Gruber. For example a more creative person has more

outrageous dreams. But it is also possible that people can make up for boring lives by having exciting dreams.

The basic types of dreaming styles are assertive vs. vulnerable and realistic vs. bizarre. In his studies, Dr. Gruber found that peo­

ple who take action in their dreams and stand up to their fears are more emotionally stable in their lives than those who run. The

assertive dreamer is a strong, confident person usually. The vulnerable dreamer has trouble facing their fears. This is the type of

person who should use the lucid dreams to practice assertiveness.

Realistic dreamers are described as conservative, warm and submissive. They also have low creativity. Bizarre dreamers are seen

as experimenting, cool, self-sufficient and creative. This helps us to see how personality traits can alter our dreaming styles.

Although Gruber has studied dreams extensively, he explained no one knows if precognition, dreaming something before it

happens, really happens or not. Although there are a lot of testimonies for it, scientists are largely divided on the subject. One

explanation that is offered for the occurrence of precognition is that people are more susceptible to "psychic" experiences when

they are asleep. Most people are hostile toward the unknown, so when their guard is down the images occur as dreams. By

Wilamowski: Learning by teaching. Photo by Larry Irvin

104

PROFILE OF A STUDENT TEACHER: KURT WILAMOWSKI "Everyone has corrupt desires. This doesn't make people evil. What makes people evil is acting on these desires," said one stu­

dent.

Another student adds, "But Macbeth wanting to be king doesn't make him evil; it's how he goes about it that makes him evil."

"So is evil learned? It is defined by one's inner thoughts? Or is an evil person defined by only his actions?" Wilamowski prompt­

ed.

The above dialogue came from Mr. Wilamowski's Advanced Placement senior English class. "Mr. Wilamowski" is known by

friends at Eastern as Kurt Wilamowski, or Kurt. It was Charleston High School that he first heard "Mr. Wilamowski ... "

Wilamowski did his student teaching at Charleston High School in the Fall of 1992. This was his first step into the profession

and into the art of teaching.

Student teaching is comparable to internships. In other words, they don't get paid. However, student teachers receive other

rewards that often surpass money. This experience is a culmination of all the hard work and all the interpersonal skills developed

at Eastern.

Student teaching is assuredly one of the most memorable, fulfilling and rewarding experiences in an educator's life.

"I was really nervous," admitted Wilamowski about his first week of the 12-week paraprofessional experience. "I didn't know

what to expect out of the students or faculty. I was unsure where to go."

A common and humane practice these days is for the cooperating teacher to ease the student-teacher into the roles of profes­

sional educator, authoritarian and friend. This introduction into the world of high school academia is done with care.

"At first, I took attendance and did acquaintance activities to learn the students' names," Wilamowski said.

Eventually, show time comes for the student-teacher. "I was eager because I really wanted to do it. I was really anxious because

I had never taught something I prepared totally by myself. I didn't know how the students would respond," Wilamowski

explained.

Wilamowski told about his first day. "Discussions went well from the beginning, but they became increasingly better as the

semester progressed. I believe discussion stemming from literature is one of the most important things in the classroom. It allows

students to critically think about the material instead of simply regurgitating what the teacher said."

Wilamowski realized how much he enjoyed his student teaching early on. "I knew things started falling into place when the

majority of students turned to me for help concerning the subject matter."

After Wilamowski's teaching experience at Charleston High School, he came out with a deeper understanding of how to deal

with the students. "I felt a lot more confident about my interpersonal skills because I was able to relate the topics to the students,

and they understood!"

He added, "It was a positive but unreal experience. What makes it unreal is that when you're on your own, you're not going to

have someone looking over your shoulder to see if you're going in the right direction. Being on your own means you have to be

more resourceful. When you 'wing it' you're not prepared. The students deserve your best."

With all this in mind, Wilamowski admitted that he could see himself teaching 20 years down the road. "I never had a bad day.

I had bad class hours, but never a bad day. As long as I feel enthusiastic about teaching, I can see myself teaching in 20 years."

"I love teaching. I love sharing ideas with other people," Wilamowski concluded. By LARRY IRVIN

A DIFFERENT KIND OF STUDENT Twenty-eight years after his academic dismissal from Southern Illinois University Homer Pinnell returned to school.

Pinnell enrolled at Eastern on the Dislocated Worker Program when he lost a large amount of land he had been farming. Returning to school

clue to a business failure is only one of the many reasons nontraditional students, those older than the "typical" college age, enroll in college

courses.

Donna Lazzell, 30, has also decided to return to Eastern to finish her degree because she was not escalating in her career. She was working

in the automotive industry where she had extensive training and management skills, but kept seeing men get the promotions.

"You can't get anywhere, especially as a woman, without a college degree. I saw that in small towns like Charleston and Danville, and I've

seen it in the big cities. It's the same everywhere you go," Lazzell said.

Pinnell and Lazzell agree that the same experience they have in the "real world" set them apart from the traditional student. Pinnell was self­

employed for 20 years and Lazzell has spent time in Africa , Haiti and Brazil. Therefore, they have real experience to apply to classroom materi­

al.

"I talk in class because I have a lot of experience," Pinnell said.

"There are classes where options are brought in that I want to say, 'No, don't think that way! ' because I know. I want to say that the real

world is not like that-it's a lot harder. My views are a lot different, but I don't bring them up. Everyone has to learn on his own," Lazzell said.

Another difference between Pinnell and Lazzell is how they thought professors feel about nontraditional students. Pinnell felt that professors

do not differentiate; however, Lazzell thought more was expected of nontraditional students and that they are graded harder.

"Professors want you to be 18 and gullible, believing everything they say," Lazzell said.

Diana Ingram, speech communication instructor, has had several nontraditional students in her classes. She said they take their work more

seriously and pay more attention to detail as compared to the traditional student. She felt nontraditional students have more responsibilities out­

side the classroom such as families , homes and jobs.

"It's a balancing act," Ingram said. "They have to deal with what's going on in the real world."

Ingram added that it seemed that most of the nontraditional students had no problem fitting in her class. She said they have become more

comfortable the longer they are on campus.

Traditional students do notice the nontraditional students that occupy their classrooms and have a wide range of opinions concerning them.

Senior Tracy Whalen said, "Many people felt intimidated by the older people. "

"I think it 's great that they have the drive to go back to school because I don't think I could," said senior Janel Geary.

Acceptance is only one of the possible worries of nontraditional students. Self confidence, financial stability, ability to do the work, fanlily

and other responsibilities challenged Pinnell when he returned to school. Lazzell also mentioned making additional adjustments.

"It takes a lot of sacrifices to come back to school. Sometimes I've just wanted to throw in the towel," Lazzell said.

To help nontraditional students deal with the pressures and uncertainties, a group of these students meet throughout the semester. The group

is called OASIS, which stands for Organization of Adult Students Informal and Supportive.

"Anyone who considers himself an adult student is welcome," said Kathie Scott, graduate student advisor for OASIS.

Scott said that most of the group members' ages range from mid-20's to mid-50's. However, there are some exceptions.

"We have one 18-year-old mother. Her lifestyle is different from that of most students her age," Scott added.

Scott said the group consists of both graduate and undergraduate students, but it 's hard to get members.

"It's been difficult for us to reach out and get people," Scott said.

Concerning curriculum, Eastern offers a degree that is ideal for some nontraditional students. The Board of Governors degree is a general

program in which students present a portfolio of prior work experience. It can be approved to be the equivalent of 30 credit hours.

"The program serves a definite need for adults who have recognized the only way to go is to finish this degree," said Dr. Kaye Woodward,

acting director of the BOG Bachelor of Alts Degree Program. By DANA PHELPS

LUMPKIN COIJ4EGE OF BUSINESS WORKS TOWARD GOAL The Lumpkin College of Business is being looked at closer these days.

Lumpkin is currently under an accreditation process by The American Assembly of Collegiate Schools of Business which has created

hopeful optimism for the Lumpkin College of Business and its dean.

Ted Ivarie, dean of the Lumpkin of College of Business, said before the accreditation process could take place, the College of Business

had to go through a self-study which created three volumes of reports that includes an addition report.

The outline for the reports includes: missions and objectives, admission of students,review of personnel, a look at curriculum, library

and computer resources, facilities and services, financial resources and equipment and educational innovation and technology.

"This process gives us grants that otherwise wouldn't be available to us."

Ivarie added that Eastern has taken an institutional position. The College of Business if the one remaining academic unit yet to be

accredited.

This is good for the institution as well as the for the Lumpkin College of Business.

"The members of the large group include about 800 colleges and universities' schools of business out of 2,200 business programs," Ivarie

said. It's a big group and only active, focused energetic group belong. Of those 800 plus number of schools and corporations, only 260 are

accredited by AACSB.

"Only 10 percent of the collegiate programs are accredited. As you can see, this is an enormous process and we are still going through

it.

"We went back to previous years and this year in order to do the self-study," Ivarie said. "We sent all the volumes in to be reviewed by

the accreditating council. On the basis of the volumes of the research the accreditation council reviewed, the council decides whether the

college meets the criteria well enough to warrant a site visit.

"They had decided we did warrant a site visit, and we needed to elaborate on questions which they needed prior to their visit.

"On November 1992 four deans from other universities which are accredited universities, to evaluate and validate what we were all

about through that documentation. Then the council files a report and we get a chance to respond to the report we have done.

"On March 15 President David jorns, Provost and Vice President for Academic Affairs Barbara Hill and I will meet with the accreditation

committee, give an oral testimony and answer any question they might have.

"And on April 20 at the annual meeting of AASCB their decision will be announced. They could deny, defer, condition accreditation or

accreditation will take."

Ivarie said a condition accreditation is something that has the college under pending accreditation if they do certain things in order to

reach accreditation process.

"If we are accredited, we will go through this whole process again in five years. So for the ones that receive initial accreditation who

apply, only 82 percent fail.

"The reason for this is, if we were not able to sustain the quality to maintain the level."

"The reason for letting ourselves subject ourselves to this, is that we are able to demonstrate to others that we have a quality program,

and it makes us more attractive to students, faculty, companies and future employers that are looking for college graduates.

"The council thought our students were well-qualified and were satisfied consumers who are very enthusiastic about their education

experiences."

The council found the faculty well-qualified, intellectually alert and willing to do a quality job of teaching. They also found the support

staff (civil service workers) to be well-qualified and dedicated people with high morale, Ivarie said. By TERESA]OHNSON

Don Dawson, Eastern's athlete adviser, tackles a pile of paperwork Photo by D a niel Dort

MAKING THE GRADE Don Dawson knows the importance of an education. Dawson, Eastern's athletic-adviser, realizes that the top pri­

orities of a student-athlete are a quality education and athlet­ics in that order.

"I don't like seeing student-athletes put on a pedestal ," Dawson said. "They (student-athletes) are students first and athletes second."

Dawson, who came to Eastern in 1991, received his mas­ter's degree in athletic administration from Eastern Kentucky University in 1989 by working as a graduate assistant in ath­letic advisement. Before coming to Eastern, Dawson took a job as an assistant athletic adviser at the University of Ken­tucky.

According to Dawson, his approach to advising student­athletes is modeled after the program used at the University of Kentucky.

"The study hall and time card system that I use here origi­nated at the University of Kentucky," he said .

Dawson added that the time card study hall system gives students flexibility and discipline. The student-athlete study hall, which is open from 8 a.m. to 10 p.m on weekdays and from 5:30 p.m to 10 p.m on Sundays, must be attended by all freshmen and transfer athletes and those students who have below a 2.5 G.P.A.

"The amount of time spent in the study hall depends on the academic standing of the student," he said. "The lower the grades, the more time spent in study hall. "

Student-athletes are given no special priviliges by Dawson. For example, if they blow off their study hall sessions they are required to attend study hall at 6 a.m.

"We don't get too many people blowing off study hall because nobody likes getting up a 6 a.m.," he said.

However, Dawson is much more than a study hall monitor. Assisting with academic planning, counseling student-athletes in regards to eligibility and progress toward a degree, moni­toring semesterly academic progress and teaching a section of freshmen orientation are just a few of his duties. He also serves as a liaison between student athletes, coaches and

112

instructors in regards to travel excuses, semester grade checks and tutor availability.

"My job is a 50-60 hour job a week, " he said. "My duties are many but assisting in athletic recruiting is a major aspect of what I do. When one season ends, another one begins. It's nonstop."

Dawson likes to play the role of a "big brother" while per­forming all of his duties.

"I believe in not being a mother-father figure but rather a big brother figure ," he said. "I help the student-athletes suc­ceed academically. I don't make them. "

Dawson explained that the main reasons student-athletes run into academic difficulties is due to poor time manage­ment and study skills.

"Student-athletes with bad habits most likely developed them in high school," he said. "When these students reach college they have trouble coping with the increased stress. Being in college is stressful enough for the average student and even more so for student-athletes. The games are farther away, the schedules are longer and the peer pressure is more intense."

Dawson also believes in learning from experience. "I believe that to experience success sometimes you have

to experience failure," he said. "Sometimes, unfortunately, it takes a failed class to wake up."

The main reason Dawson got into counseling in the first place was because he hated seeing student-athletes stmggle academically.

"I got into advising because when I was a high school coach. I was tired of seeing kids getting pushed through the system."

As far as the future is concerned, Dawson hopes to improve on Eastern's 68 percent graduation rate for student­athletes.

"Eastern is above the national graduation rate for student­athletes but that is not good enough for me," he said. "I am shooting for 100 percent. Some might find that a lofty goal, but not me. I like shooting for the top. " By DANIEL DORT

mixed with some youthful rookies. Panther head coach Paul Lueken said he used the fall sea­

son to get the young players some experience. One of these young players was Jamie Reid, who trans­

ferred from Carterville's John Logan Community College. Reid teed off to an excellent start, and by mid-season he won his first tournament as a Panther.

Reid carded a 70 on the par-72 course at the Franklin Col­lege Golf Invitational at the Hillview Country Club .

Lueken said that the most improved player from last year is John Armstrong. "I am real surprised with John's (Arm­strong) play. " Lueken added, "John really made the biggest stride from last year. "

There was two major bright spots in the fall season for the Panther linksters: placing third out of 19 at the Indi­anapolis Golf Invitational and Reid's medal finish at the Franklin College Golf Invitational.

Lueken once again has high hopes for for the upcoming spring season. Some important tournaments in the spring season include: the Wright State Tournament; Bradley Invi­tational , which will include 18 division one schools; and the Drake University Tournament.

"We need to improve on our consistency in order to com­pete in the upper one-half of the fields ," said Reid.

The main goal for the Panthers during the spring season is the Mid Continent Conference Tournament. The confer­ence tournament is usually held in the end of the fall sea­son, but for the first time it will be held at the end of the spring season. Lueken said he likes the conference tourna­ment in the fall compared to in the spring for two main rea­sons: players are at their peak of their games at the end of the fall and the second there is a long lay off between the last spring tournament and the Mid Continent Conference Tournament.

"The team for the most part played pretty well in the fall and I hope we can even do better in the upcoming spring season," Lueken said. By JASON SWOPE

SEARCHING FOR EXPERIENCE Since the inception o f soccer to the Eastern athletic program

nearly 30 years ago, the team has had its share of ups and downs. An NATA national championship in 1969, a fourth-place finish in

Division II in 1974 and a second place finish in Division I in 1982, Eastern's first yea r at that level, qualify as the bright spots in East­ern soccer history.

I lowever, finishing the 1992 campaign with a 3-12-2 record was one of the down p eriods. I t was the worst season in Coach Cizo Mosnia 's nine-year career at Eastern and perhaps one of the worst in the team's histo ry.

Mosnia knew going into the season that it would be a challenge to compete with some o f the nationally ranked competition his team would face. The Panthers lost leading sco rer LeBaron Hol­limon to graduation and returned only three senio rs from the ·1991 season. Tri-capta in jim Davidson , Tom Waters, and Adam H owarth were the only seniors that came back. H owever, liowarth later quit the team.

A tota l of 15 first or second-year players were on the roster when the 1992 season started. This inexperience proved to be cost­ly at certain times throughout the season. At times, Eastern had starting lineups with four freshmen and two o r three sophomores.

The team 's inexperience didn't help matters when the Panthers went up against national powerhouses like St. Louis University, Southern Methodist, North Carolina-Charlotte, Wisconsin-Green Bay and Southern Illino is-Edwardsville, all of which were ranked in the Top 25 in the nation at some po int in the season. Eastern was 0 -5 against these teams.

The season did start w ell when Eastern picked apart Mid-Conti­nent Conference opponent Valpariaso on opening day. I l owever, the Panthers could only manage two more w ins for the rest of the

11 4

season , both of which came aga inst conference foes Northern Illi­nois and Cleavland State.

After dropping both games in the SMU Classic, things got better when the Panthers returned home to beat Nonhern Illinois and ti Western Illino is. Then it was off to Ohio where they split a pair o games.

That was the last bright spot for the team because they lost the rest o f their games and finished the season at 3-12-2. Included in those losses were defeats at the hands of Torth Carolina-Cha rlott~ Illinois-Chicago, Wisconsin-Green Bay and a season ending loss t Southern Indiana.

Next season may be a little brighter for Eastern as all those young players will have one more year o f experience. Also retur ing wi ll be Paul Agyeman, who led the team this year with 22 points.

Other statters returning to next year's squad are Ricky Tovar, Matt Davis, jim Harkness, V inca Kucinic, Matt Cook and goalie j ohn Gouriotis. O thers who will be looking to crack the sta tting lineup include Peter Barlas, Phil Kuzyk , Phil Obiala, john Pervan, Toshino ri Tatezawa , Robert Tomic and john Turkington. Coming back from season ending knee injuries w ill be Steve Van Dyke a Brian Gregory.

Mosnia is already busy recruiting players for next season. Mosn attended some of the Illino is High School State Soccer Playoffs at the end of the season for recruiting purposes. He said he w ill try bring in some speed at the outside w ing positions for next year's squad.

Tough conference hinders baseball For the second straight season Eastern 's baseball Panthers failed

to reach the .500 mark. The Panthers, who finished the 1992 campaign with a 24-30

record , took third place at the Mid-Continent Conference Tourna­ment in Chicago. Their third place finish was the team's brightest moment of the season.

Eastern started strong in the conference tournament by notching victories over Youngstown State and Akron. But the Panthers fell victim in the next round to eventual champ Wright State and were bounced from the tournament by Akron.

·'I thought the tournament went just as I expected it to ," said Eastern coach Dan Callahan. ·'T figured Wright State would beat Akron in the championship and we'd finish third and that is exact­ly what has happened ...

Throughout much of the regular season the Panthers were sim­ply outmatched by a difficult non-conference schedule.

"We were unsure of how the season would evolve because we had a tough non-conference schedule,·· Callahan said.

Eastern went up against top-rated schools like Oklahoma , f\ew Orleans, Tulane, Southern Mississippi, lllinois , Indiana State and Indiana and ended up on the short end of the stick in most of these games.

"''m not sure what good it does our program to go up against top 30 teams if we end up losing most of the time," Callahan said. ·'It does make losing easier to take when you've played one of the

116

strongest programs in the country, but then again losing is never fun ...

Callahan seemed to think the players thought they could end u with a 35-win season. I Imvever, the Panthers got off to a very slow start, winning only 6 of the 21 consecutive road games ~It the season 's start , and their dreams of a winning season were soon shattered.

One of the reasons for the team's lack of success was poor defense , especially at the beginning of the season. ·'You either make the pbys or you don't, '' Call ~than said.

Some of the bright spots on this year's team were the perfor­n1ances of Mid-Continent All-Conference selections Steve Lemke, Todd Davis and Jason .Jete!.

Lemke, who was the ace of the Panther pitching staff. finished the season with 7-7 mark and a 3.82 earned run average. In 99 innings of work, he fanned 66 and walked only '17. Lemke went on to sign a free agent contract with the Oakland Athletics.

Davis , who played right field , ended his senior year with a .35 average and led the team with 1 1 home runs and 46 runs batted in.

Jete! , who batted over .400 for most of the season , finished his junior year with a team-leading .390 average.

EIU Softball: a learning experience Before the 1992 se~tson even started , Eastern ·s softball team

faced two gigantic question marks; a new coach and a young tC:Il11.

Beth Perine took over as coach for the Lady Panthers , replacing Kathy Arendsen , who left to take the head coaching job at Yale University. Arendsen guided Eastern for two seasons. directing the team to a 46-36 record in that span.

Perine led the young Eastern tea m, in which "10 out of 1 ') players were sophomores or freshmen, to a 20-24 record overall and a 6-8 record in their final season in the Gateway Conference.

The highlight of the season probably came in the second week of April when sophomore pitcher/ second baseman Coli Turley threw a no-hitter against DePaul University. It was the first no-hit­ter of her collegiate career and the team 's only one of the season.

Pitching was the Lady Panthers ' mainstay in 1992. Turley and senior Chris Koehl teamed up to do all of the pitching for the Lady Panthers. The two combined to thrmv 302 innings and compiled an impressive 1.60 earned run average.

Despite a losing record of 6-11, which was mainly due to an absence of offensive support, Turley finished the season with a miniscule 1.33 ERA and held her opponents to a .209 batting aver­age. She finished among the conference leaders in these two cate-

118

gories. Koehl started the season slowly, going 4-8 in her first 12 deci ­

sions. But she went 10-5 the rest of the way to finish with a 14- 13 record. Koehl had a 1.83 ERA and struck out 136 batters. She fin­ished her two-yea r ca reer at Eastern with a 30-21 record.

Offensively, the Lady Panthers struggled for most of the year. Their biggest game was a 19-9 thrashing of Northern Iowa in their second home game of the yea r. Eastern hit .233 as a ream, which ranked them near the bottom of the Gateway.

junio r shortstop Tammy Stice led the Lady Panthers in almost every offensive categoty. She led or tied for the club lead in 11 o ffensive statistics, including average, home runs , runs hatted in, doubles, triples and stolen bases. Stice finished the year batting .318 with two home runs and 16 RBls. I ler nine triples placed her among the Division I leaders.

Other pla yers that contributed to the Eastern attack were Chelle Maynard , Ticole Chapman, Turley, joy Parlier, Dede Odie, Brandi Brewer, Annette Travica and Aimee Klein.

The Lady Panthers should have a strong returning team in 1993 as they only lose three players - Koehl , Parlier and Maynard. Fill ­ing in the three open positions will be players Michelle Stinson, Renee Diebold and Luann Schleeter. By RYAN GIUSTI

EIU SOCCER: AROUND THE WORLD Soccer, the world 's most popular sport, is played by people

from all ends of the earth. And for a Canadian, an Englishman and a Japanese, soccer was the common thread that brought them together as teammates at Eastern .

The story behind how each one of them ended up playing soc­cer for the Panthers is as different as their cu ltures.

Paul Agyeman, a sophomore striker from Edmonton, Albetta, and last year's second leading scorer with 26 points , found out about Eastern when his club team from Canada played the Pan­thers.

"My name was mentioned to Coach Cizo (Mosnia) and the fol­lowing year I was at Eastern,., Agyeman sa id .

Adam Howarth, a senior midfielder from Slough , England , sent out app lications for soccer scholarships all over the United States, and according to I Iowarth , Eastern gave him the best deal.

The story of how Toshinori Tatezawa , a native of suburban Tokyo, became a member of Eastern 's soccer team is a bit different than the other two.

"My English teacher in Japan knows former President (Stanley) Rives and he told him (Rives) that I was interested in playing soc­cer at an American col lege," Tatezawa said. ''President Rives gave my name to Cizo and I was off to Eastern."

Although their stories about how they ended up at Eastern are different, there are a quite a few things that they have in common besides being teammates.

All three believe that soccer is a great way to bring people of different cultures together.

·'Soccer is an excellent way to bring nations together," Howarth said . ·'Our team roster is a perfect example of that. "

Agyeman, an avid fan of the Edmonton Oilers, agrees with Howarth but adds that the crowd 's emotions have to be channeled the right way.

120

·'Soccer definitely brings people from different nationalities together ," Agyeman said. "However, the game can tend to get a bit violent, and if the crowd does not control itself, violence can occur and a riot can break out as has happened in the past."

All three men a lso started playing soccer at a early age, Howarth and Agyeman at 5 and Tatezawa at 7, and they love the game for many reasons.

Tatezawa enjoys soccer because it is highly competitive and relatively inexpensive.

·'All you need is a ball and a couple of friends ," he sa id . Agyeman , however, likes soccer for its creativity and its spon­

taneity. ·'Soccer makes you use your wits ," he sa id . ·'It 's not like foot­

ball w here there a re set plays. You a lways have to outthink the opponent.''

One reason Howarth enjoys soccer is he believes it is a team sport that a ll ows players to shine as individuals.

''Soccer is a team sport," he said , "but if you are a good playet you wi ll get noticed in a hurry. "

As far as the future is concerned , a ll three plan on staying in the United States after graduation if all goes well.

Howarth hopes to get a job teaching history. ''I am working toward my teacher's cert ification , and I'd really

like to teach U.S. history because it fascinates me," he sa id . Tatezawa , nicknamed Toshi by his teammates, is majoring in

business management , and he hopes to get a job after gradua­tion in America as well.

Agyeman , a physical education major, hopes to play soccer at a professional level after graduation.

·Td love to play soccer in the United States,'' he said , "espe­cia ll y if a national health ca re plan gets passed." By DANIEL DORT

Indoors or out, men's track excels This year's men 's track team was the best ever since the pro­

gram went to Division I in 1980. Indoors, Eastern cla imed its fourth M id-Continent conference

title and qualified long jumper Nevin Govan and thrower Braidy Miller to the national meet. An injLuy kept Govan from competing 'at nationals, but Miller earned All -American honors for the second consecutive year by placing seventh in the 35-pound weight throw.

At the Mid-Continent championships, hosted by Eastern in ebruary, the Panthers claimed the title by a close margin of 23 oints over Western Illino is. Seven Eastern athletes won individual

championships. Govan took top honors in the long, trip le and high ·ump events. I lis w inning efforts in the long jump (24 feet 11 3/ 4 Inches), and high jump (6 feet 11 inches), were also new confer-

nee records. His long jump was also a new Lantz f ieldhouse record . Govan was later voted most valuable athlete of the meet.

Outdoors, the Panthers proved to be even better. Added events ·uch as the 3,000-meter steeplechase, hammer throw, javelin throw mel 400-meter intermediate hurdles on meet schedules only made astern's team stronger. Aga in, Eastern 's thinclads took the conference meet, for the

ighth time in ten years, over Western Illinois. But this t ime by a ore dominating 73 points, crowning eight individual champions

n the process.

The Panthers had all four of their senior big guns, Miller, Govan and twin brothers Dan and Dan·in Steele, leading the way. All fou r had qual ified for nationals in previous track seasons but had never been on the same outdoor squad together. Darrin won the decathlon at the Alabama Relays and broke his own school record at the EI U Invitational , qualifying him for the national meet. llow­ever, an injllly kept him from post-season competition.

M iller broke his own school record in the hammer throw severa l times during the course of the season , ending up w ith a best o f 211 feet 7 inches. lie also set a new school record in the discus throw. Both of those efforts qualified h im for the national meet, w here he f inished lOth in the hammer.

Dan Steele took Eastern hurdling to a new d imension in 1992. He went undefeated in the 400-meter intermediate hurdles, cla im­ing t itles at the A labama Relays, EI U Invitational, Drake Relays, Mid-Continent Championships and the NCAA finals.

Steele is the fi rst Eastern athlete to w in an indiv idual event at the D ivision I outdoor championships. Steele won the race by one hundredth of a second over Marty Beck of UCLA. I lis winning time o f 49.79 seconds broke h is own school record by almost a half second.

UNDERCLASSMEN KEY FOR TURNAROUND SEASON The men·s tennis team finished the spring season with

n overall record of 12-9, a dramatic turnaround from last r's disappointing 4-21 finish.

Men's tennis coach john Bennett explained one of th e ns for the team's success was the sparkling perfor­

ances of the three freshmen on the team. Three seniors and three freshman occupied the six start­

ng singles positions. The seniors were jeff Streul, jay eyer and Dan Beres. However, Meyer, who played No. 1

ingles as a freshman , suffered a knee injury and was reed to spend his sophomore and junior year rehabilitat­

ng. ·'I had him (Meyer) p laying at o. 1 singles his freshman

ear and he was rea lly strong in that position ," Bennett ·aiel. "But then he had a knee injury and unfortunately had o spend his sophomore and junior year rehabilitating. He

as able to come back his last season and played strong or us at No. 5. "

Streu l was strong in singles play at No . 3, but looked ven better in doubles action with freshman Pat Mellin. The enior-freshman duo finished the season with a perfect 18-record. ·'Pat really wasn 't a doubles player per se, but hen I saw what he could do, I left him in there and things

really worked our well,'' Bennett said . ·' Pat 's strong point in doubles was that he was a good

set-up man and cou ld hit some good baseline shots that were extremely hard to return ," Bennett said. "When they were returned , Jeff could pur them away easily.··

! laving three freshman on the team with three seniors would at first glance seem to be a weird combination, but the three newcomers met the chal lenge. Freshman George Macey was thrust into the No. 1 singles spot and found himself in some tough batt les as the season unfold ­ed. Macey won about half of his matches , but his hard­nosed competitive nature was what counted the most.

Freshman Ryan Ivers , who played No. 5 singles, and Mellin, who played No. 2 singles , both had impressive incli ­vidua l records. However, the two turned out to be more valuable in doubles competition. Several times during the season, the matches weren't decided until their doubles matches were finished.

·'[think we did as good as we could," Bennett said when assessing the season. "We were the underdog most of the time and as things turned out, we were able to have a win­ning season that percentage-wise was the best I've had in the last few years here." By MATT MAHARG

Sports: for your information There is a tiny office, not much bigger than a walk-in closet, in

Gym by the pool. Many people do not even know that this ffice exists, and most of those that do, don 't know what goes on

re. That office is the home of Eastern's sport's information rtment.

Dave Kidwell , a 1970 graduate of Eastern and the school"s direc­of sport's information since 1972, works with his full-time assis­Dan·in Byran in performing a variety of vital functions perta in­

to Eastern athletics. ·'We try to provide the new's media with as much information

bout the school's athletic program in the most positive manner ble," Kidwell said.

We write news releases about teams and individuals and we put media guides for all 19 sports,·· he added.

However, putting out media guides for a ll 19 sports can be ch more difficult than it sounds especial ly since they are writ-

n, edited and designed out of the sport's information office. Kid­! added that the media guides range from 40 pages to an 8 1/2 11 inch two-fold. In addition to the media guides, Kidwe ll 's

puts out programs for eve1y home football and basketball me. Kidwell also explained that the sport's information office is also

ible for keeping statistics at basketball , baseball , football , leyba ll and softball games.

Having done this job since 1972, Kidwell believes that the media gotten too carried away with statistics.

·'We have tried to get away from using too many statistics," he

said. ·'We try to stress the human interest angle of the story. Many perks accompany his job, and he has has witnessed some

memorable moments in the schools athletic histo1y. "I've been lucky enough to be a part of some great events," he

said. ·The 1976 men's basketba ll team that finished third in the nation in Division II by winning 15 games in a row was a very special moment for me, .. he said .

''Also, I will never forget our 1978 football team that won the national championship after going 1-10 the yea r before. My other favorite moment was the success of last year's men's basketball team and their first ever NCAA tournament appearance."

ot only are there moments that Kidwell will never forget but there are also some great athletes that left their mark on him as well.

·'In my opinion, some of the best athletes that have passed through here are jeff Gossett, Poke Cobb, Kevin Duckwo rth, and Marty Pattin," he said. "There are a lot more, but those are the guys that made an impression on me ...

Kidwell , who claims that his job is a "seven day a week thing" from September to May, explained that technological wonders like the fax machine and statistical software have made his job easier.

·'The advances in technology have made my job easier but without the he! p of my assistant, student volunteers, and an extremely cooperative coaching staff I could not do my job," he said. ''I don 't mind all the work because I love my job, I love sports, except pro basketball , and I love working with people.·· By DANIEL DORT

TRAINERS: GETIING ATHLETES BACK ON THEIR FEET Unfortunately there are times when an athlete suffers an injllly.

Athletes take that risk eve1y time they perform. Fortunately though, there are athletic trainers to help athletes get back on their feet again.

Lance Me amara , one of Eastern's four athletic trainers, works hand in hand w ith 28 student trainers to prevent injuries from hap­pening, to evaluate an injllly when it does occur and to rehabilitate athletes that have been injured.

McNamara, who received his bachelor's degree from Indiana State University and his master's degree from Ohio University, has been at Eastern for two years and se1ves as head trainer for the men's basketball team. Not only is he a S[lOrts trainer, he is a sports fan. McNamara said he gets as hyped up for the games as much as anybody but is all business when an inju1y occurs.

·'I never forget that the main reason I am here is to do my job if someone gets injured," he said. '·However, we deal heavily with prevention so that hopefully nobody gets hurt .. ,

He also added that w hen somebody gets hun on the other team, personal loyalty is put on the back burner.

·'Evely sponing event has to have a certified athletic trainer on hand according to NCAA regulations," he said. "It would be highly unethical for me to refuse to help an injured ath lete on the oppos­ing team if that team had no trainer present. "

McNamara explained that most of the injuries are associated with the sport.

"In basketball injuries mainly occur in the lower extremities,"' he sa id. "I see a lot of ankle sprains and strains," he said. However, according to Mel amara the more contact involved, the higher the risk of injury.

"High contact spans, especially football , can cause a lot of injuries to all parts of the body," he said . ·'That is why there is an ambulance at eve1y football game."

Accord ing to McNamara, for limited contact sports like soccer and basketball an Emergency Medical Se1vice unit is on call and ready to respond in the event of an injUiy.

McNamara also explained that a certain procedure is followed

when an athlete does oet hun. "The first step is to do a prelimimuy evaluation of the injwy," he

said. ''We then get an educated idea of the extent of the injllly .. , The university health se1v ice also plays a key role in dealing w ith

injuries according to McNamara. "Dr. Larson is the team physician for all of Eastern 's sports

teams,"' he said. "'He prescribes medication w hen it is necessa1y .. , I Iowever, Me \Tamara explained that medication is used as a last

result and that a strong emphasis is placed on natural healing. "The body is a fascinating machine and it has its own built-in

pain ki llers,"' he sa id. According to Mc\Tamara, there is a fine line between playing

injured and playing hurt. "We don·t want people playing hurt," he said. "However, we can

speed up the healing process and get the athletes back on their feet quicker .. ,

Technology plays a key ro le in this healing process according to McNamara. Therapeutic modalities, which is the use of electrical and sound \Vaves, speeds up the healing process. Therapeutic exer­ciser equipment is used to strengthen anc re-educate muscles and to prevent injuries from occurring.

Like anyone in the medical profession, McNamara must keep in tune w ith current and future trends. McNamara keeps up with the times by doing individual research and by subscribing to journals that pertain to his field. McNamara also attends seminars and com­pletes continued education units (CTU's). He explained that the \Tational Athletic Trainers Association, which is the main governing body for athletic trainers, requires that six CTU's be completed over a 3-year period.

Oddly though, it is not the seminars, the mental stimulation or the injuries that he has healed that give him the most satisfaction, but rather the way that he affects people's lives.

" I have helped people to go in the direction that they want to go," he said. "I like the fact that I will always be dealing with col­lege athletes because I can help them achieve their goals from an athletic standpoint.., By DANIEL DORT

CHEER TEAM MAKES A WISH The wish list fo r the Cheer Team is rather small. Wish number one

is for respect, the second for recognition, the third for practicing space and the fourth is to be taken seriously.

Among an apartment decorated w ith megaphones and pom-pons, Abby Hinkle, a junior psychology major and also captain of the Cheer Team, explains this wish list quite seriously in her hoarse voice from the game the night before.

"The coaches and players appreciate us, hut the school doesn't,'' Hinkle sa id. "Actually, the fans come and are supportive but I just don't think that they know we want them to yell with us. "

Lack of funding and practice space is a significant barrier for the cheerleaders w ho are comprised o f eight women and eight men.

During the fall semester the cheerleaders practice in McAfee Gym but during the spring semester they get kicked out by other sports that need to use it, according to Hinkle.

"They expect us to look good and do impressive mounts, but yet they don't provide us w ith an adequate practice space," Hinkle explained. "They also expect us there (away games) but w e don't have money to go anywhere.

"We would like to be able to fo llow the team.'' One thing that the team does not have to wish for is close-knit

squad. "One thing I love about this year is that we all get along," I Iinkle

aiel. "My closest friends are cheerleaders. How many organizations do that?"

Practicing two hours almost evety clay throughout the fall and ·pring semesters may contribute to their closeness.

Once at practice, the team choreographs and practices the stunts, ·outines and cheers. Most cheer teams have coaches, but Eastern only has an adviser.

"We have an adviser, but she is pretty new. As far as coaching,

Shawn Timmerman (the other capta in) and I basically do it," she explained . "We work together and organize evety thing."

Working together is something that is not only internal. This year the Cheer Team and the Pink Panthers have put d1eir talents together for something quite impressive in a routine at the Homecoming bon­fi re.

'' Last year it felt like we competed. Th is year we put out talents together. We did the stunts and basket tosses and they did their dance," she sa id.

The Cheer Team can be seen leading the crowd in cheers at both basketball and football games. Along w ith the cheering at the games, the team also attends a cheerleacling camp evety fa ll about two weeks befo re school starts.

·'This was the first year we ever placed ," she said about the UCA camp in Milwaukee. "We placed fifth in sideline competition and brought home a big trophy. This was the first time that Eastern 's ever placed at camp."

Before the squad can go to camp in the fa ll , tty -outs have to be held during the spring semester. A month-long clinic is held to intro­duce perspective cheerleaders to stunting.

"We have a lot of trouble recruiting guys but we have a good turn out of girls,'' Hinkle said. "The main thing guys like to go out is because they like to stunt. Guys on the squad become addicted to stunting.··

''The guys think it's an unmasculine sport, but the guys at the Big 10 schools are b igger than our football players, " said j enny Ward, Hinkle's roommate and fellow varsity cheerleader.

After attending camp and receiving a trophy, the Cheer Team is looking fo tward to sending a video tape to Cheerleading Nationals held in Florida each spring. This is just one more w ish to add to the Cheer Team·s w ish list. By CATHY MYERS

PANTHERS GO UP AGAINST TOUGH SCHEDULE Eastern's football team probably proved it was arguably the

best S-6 team in the country and also probably proved they had the worst luck of any team, too.

The Panthers started out the season with a 14-9 win over Austin Peay. But from that point, they felt the results of playing the fifth toughest schedule in Division I-AA.

With powerhouses such as Northern Iowa, Marshall and Youngstown State, all which were No. 1 in different polls across the nation at one time or another, and with Top 20 teams such as Western Illinois, Southern Illinois and Southwest Missouri State, the Panthers had their work cut out for them this season.

The Panthers posted a 1-5 against those teams, but that sole victory turned the season of frustration into a bright future for the program.

In the second to last week of the season, Eastern played host to the No. 1 team in Division I-AA, Northern Iowa. Northern Iowa stood on top of national polls for five weeks before the Panthers of Eastern knocked of the Panthers of Northern Iowa, 21-15.

The key to the game was Eastern's defense. The Panthers ' defense allowed Northern Iowa only one touchdown, which came in the final minutes of the game. The other Northern Iowa touchdown came on a blocked field goal attempt which was run back for a touchdown.

The Panthers went on to win the final game of the season over Western Kentucky, 28-7. This game marked the end of 12 seniors' careers. Jason Caldwell, Edson Castillo, Dan Dee, Mar-

tin Ellens, Brad Fichtel, Kevin Gales , Terrence Hickman, Der­rick Lane, Brae Montgomery, Dan Purcell, Mike Rummel and John Vakos walked will play on the grass in O 'Brien Stadium.

During the streak of bad luck, the Panthers lost to Southern Illinois in the final minute of the game when Eastern went for two-point conversion and failed to convert which resulted in a 47-46 loss.

Also Western Illinois scored a touchdown in the final minute of the game for a 31-28 come-from-behind victory.

Eastern then had something to prove at Southwest Missouri State where they lost 13-10. The outcome may have been differ­ent if a Panther running back wouldn't have turned the ball over inside the Bears' 10-yard line.

And after being up 10-0 over Youngstown State the Panthers' had a lapse and ended up losing 28-19.

But in the middle of streak was a 48-9 win over Murray State and a 31-28 Homecoming win over Indiana State

Some of the key additions to the team were Chris Hicks, Tim Carver, Shavez Hawkens, Steve Largent and Mike Martinez.

Hicks, as a redshirt freshman, found himself a spot starter job at the running back position throughout the year. Also on the offensive side of the ball was Largent, who cured nearly all the Panthers ' kicking problems by nailing every extra point attempt and hitting field goals this year from 47 yards and 53 yards.

On defense, freshman Tim Carver was the team's leading tackler. Also Shavez Hawkens and Mike Martinez solidified the secondary after transferring from junior college. By KEITH FARROLL

A dream becomes reality "No matter what happens during practice, at 5 o'clock we

walk away best friends, " said Karesa Allen, senior elementary education major and three-year member of the Pink Panthers.

This type of unity and friendship can be found throughout the squad.

"I'm going to miss Kristy (Hohulin) and Kim (Wiford) when we graduate," Allen admitted of her two other squad members. All three made the squad together when they were sopho­mores.

Although they are friends, their professional side takes over during practice and performances.

"We are all perfectionists and have the same drive," Hohulin said. "Everyone comes for the same background yet we accept everyone's style."

The background that most have in common is dance experi­ence. According to Wiford, most girls have at least one or two years of dance lessons or were a members of their high school pom-pon squad.

Besides having practice two hours a day and 7 a.m. practices on game days, the 14-member squad performs at all home foot­ball and basketball games. Their season starts two weeks before fall and ends in March.

All three girls agree that they are busy throughout the entire year.

"You grow up so fast ," Hohulin explained. "You don't have

136

time for petty things." Besides performing for home games, the girls have also per­

formed at a Chicago Bears home game. That was the most memorable moment for Wiford.

"There's so many people," she said. "It was our first perfor­mance this year and that's what made it so special."

Hohulin enjoyed the NCAA tournament in Idaho last year when half of the squad was flown there. The squad also trav­eled to Tennessee for camp in August.

"We didn't get a trophy, but each girl received either a supe­rior or excellent on their individual routine," Wiford said. "We did well for our first year at this camp. This is the biggest camp and we competed against much bigger schools than us."

The squad is not all businesslike. Pink Panthers throw a cou­ple of date parties in to get together and relax, Hohulin said.

They also serve pizza to a basketball clinic, do a dad's routine when their dads perform with them, hold a clinic for young girls and invite them to perform with them and they have even pumped gas for Marathon during their grand opening this year.

Although eight girls are graduating, many personalities and friendships will be left behind.

"We would like to teach the new girls the traditions that they should keep," Wiford said. "Pink Panthers is an honor."

However, both Wiford and Hohulin agreed that making Pink Panthers was a dream come true. By CATHY MYERS

Underclassmen lead team The men's cross country team changed its form many times

throughout the 1992 season. At first, new head coach John Mcinerney thought his front

pack would consist of his experienced returnees. But as it turned out the team's newcomers, both freshmen and transfer students were the ones handling the pace work.

The team started off the season following the lead of sopho­more Nate Shaffer and seniors Brett Carlson and Geoff Masanet, but it wasn't long before freshmen Steve Cunningham and Jason Frey were challenging for positions at the front.

Shaffer ran the first three races as the Panther's top runner, in one of them he ran the team's fastest 8,000-meter time of the year (25:00), but by the time of the team's home invitational he became very ill. That's when things started to change.

The EIU Invitational turned out to be the highlight of season. There the Panthers claimed the team title, and junior Dave Lewis, a transfer from Mid-Continent Conference rival Western Illinois, won the race individually.

By then only two of the top seven were on the team the year before.

"I knew from the recruiting we did that there would be some changes," said Mcinerney. "We had about 20 new kids this year, I think it's a good sign for the future. "

Just 17 seconds behind Lewis at the EIU Invitational was Jeff Trask, another transfer, who was to be team's top runner over the next three races, one of them being a win at the Southern Illinios triangular.

At the Conference meet the Panthers ran into some tough competition from Cleveland State and Western Illinois. They placed third, and Trask earned All-Conference honors by fin­ishing seventh overall. It was the third year in a row that East­em finished third as a team. Frey, the most consistent per­former on the team, who never ran an 8,000 slower than 26:42 all year, just missed All-Conference (top 10), by placing 11th.

"Frey was a little bit of a surprise," Mcinerney said. "But I knew Trask and Lewis would be tough coming in. "

However, injuries sidelined both Trask and Lewis before the district meet. There the Panthers placed 24th, but were led in grand fashion by Frey and Cunningham in the only 10,000-meter race of the season. By BRIAN HARRIS

Spikers take second best A second place finish in the Mid-Continent Conference, a

record 13- match win streak, the first post-season appear­ance since 1982 and 24-11 record, which was the second best in the team's history, were just a few of the highlights that Eastern's women's volleyball team will not soon for­get.

The post-season came to a quick end when Eastern lost to Western Illinois in the semi-finals of the Mid-Con tourna­ment. As a result of this loss, all hopes of a rematch with conference champion Northern Illinois came to a sudden halt. However, the devastating loss to Western was still not enough to dampen a season of highlights.

The highlights began early and came often for the Lady Panthers, the first coming when Eastern defeated the Uni­versity of Maryland early in the season 16-14, 12-15, 15-6, 15-13 at the Hofstra Tournament. Junior Kim Traub led the way, as she would do much of the season, with 25 kills, while senior Susie Green, who was named to the All-Tour­nament team at Hofstra, added 16 and sophomore Kaaryn Sadler 14.

"The win against Maryland was a real highlight this sea­son, because even though it happened early in the season, it marked the first win against a regionally-ranked team in at least five years ... maybe ever," said Lady Panther coach Betty Ralston. "That win got us off on the right track to start the conference season and gave us a lot of momentum."

Ralston said she felt the next highlight came right on the heels of the first, when the Lady Panthers headed east to start the conference season. The Lady Panthers defeated Wright State, Youngstown State and Cleveland State during the three-match road trip. The successful swing east was only a hint of things yet to come. The Lady Panthers lost only two of their 16 conference matches with both of those losses at the hands of NIU. Northern Illinois ended up atop the Mid Continent Conference with a perfect 16-0 confer-

ence mark. The 14-2 conference record and second place conference

finish was exactly the way Ralston and her team wanted to prove that they were being overlooked. Ralston said that Eastern's excellent conference record was "vindication" for the pre-season coach's poll that predicted Eastern to finish under .500 and no better than sixth in the Mid-Con race.

"I was upset that we were picked no better than sixth in the conference because I knew this team was better than that," Ralston said. "I know they (other coaches) looked at our record last season and saw we were under .500 and were losing some key players, but I was seeing this team come together and work as a unit. They were probably closer than any team I have ever coached before."

It was closeness that put the Lady Panthers into the record books. The Lady Panthers compiled a 13-match win­ning streak that ended on the final game of the regular sea­son in a loss to Missouri. That streak broke the previous record of 12-straight wins set in 1987.

"This team just became such close friends and we worked together so well," said senior middle-hitter Beth Foster. "We respected everyone from the seniors to the freshmen and we didn't worry about individual statistics or making sure the seniors were given more opportunities. All we wanted to do was win as a team."

Ralston said the biggest highlight of the season was not the win streak or the post-season, but the support her team received at home games. Records were set for both single­game and season attendance during the 1992 campaign.

"The greatest thing of all was the enthusiastic crowds at a ll of the home matches," said Ralston. "The crowds were large and knowledgeable, we had an enthusiastic announc­er and music between the matches. All of those things made the whole season a really nice experience." By DANIEL DORT

IR' HOCKEY: MEN'S LACROSSE CLUB GROWS According to Dan Zelazek, president of Eastern's Lacrosse ub, the sport's popularity is increasing at Eastern. Eastern's Lacrosse Club plays as long as the weather permits

tth the exception of a break in the season during ovember d December. "We play as much as possible to gain exposure, .. Zelazek said.

the fall we compete directly with football so it's hard to get tt much exposure especially when not that many people know out us. I Towever, despite all that we are growing in size ...

elazek, a senior sociology major, simply describes the game hockey p layed in the air and on grass. rhere are 10 members including a goalie on each team and

games are divided into four 15-minute quarters. Zelakek lained that on the club-team level the number of minutes to played in each quarter is set before each match. According to Zelazek, lacrosse is more than just 10 guys on field holding sticks.

Lacrosse is a ski ll that has to be learned and developed," he I. "That can frustrate people sometimes." astern 's Lacrosse Club has 22 members, which according to tzek is pretty impressive since the club is only a year and a o ld. owever, Zelazek believes that the high cost of equipment

hinders the club's ability to grow. ·'Equipment is rather expensive," Zelazek sa id. "A lot of people

who would like to play simply can't afford to. " According to Zelazek , helmets cost around 75, sticks $40-$50,

shoulder pads $30, and gloves $50. All of th is equipment is required by the CAA for safety reasons.

Zelazek would like Eastern to provide financial assistance to the Lacrosse Club and all club sports in general.

·Tel like to see the university help pay for club sports," he said. "I have nothing aga inst Eastern, but most other universi t ies subsidize club sports. I w ish Eastern would do the same. "

Zelazek bel ieves that if Eastern helped the Lacrosse Club from a financial standpoint, the club would benefit tremendously.

·'Right now we don't have that many people on the team and so everybody plays a lot. They get tired ," he sa id. "We need more people."

According to Zelazek, if Eastern helped foot the bill more peo­ple would join the Lacrosse Club simply because it's "addicting".

·'Lacrosse is a finess and power game," he said . "The skill level ranks above all other sports that I have seen.

1 like playing because it is so addictive and I 'm sure that anyone who got the chance to play would feel the same way. " By DANIEL DORT

DOING IT ON THEIR OWN In order for a team to be successful it must exhibit

xtremc dedication. However, for the EIU men 's volleyball lub , dedication must exist simply for the sake of survival.

"If the players weren 't dedicated to the club, we simply ould not exist , '" said senior Andrew Epperly, a four-year

1ember of the team who currently serves as a player-coach. According to Epperly, Eastern has had a men 's volleyball

lub for about 10 years. Epperly said that the present team onsists of 25 men who are "extremely dedicated to the port of volleyball. "

Since the men 's volleyball club receives no monetary sup­orr from the school they must find other means of paying r their expenses . One of these means is dues. Epperly said at individual dues are between $25-$40 per year , depend-g on the number of members on the team. "Dues pay for all of our expenses ," he said. "Most of our penses involve tournament fees and travelling costs like

<Is and food. " Epperly explained that the club has tried , with not much ail , to raise money via sponsorship. "It 's hard to get sponsors when you don 't get any school

tnding ,'· he said. Epperly added that another disadvantage of being on a

ub team is the lack of a "real '" coach. "P layer-coaching can be difficult , especially when you're

coaching your peers ," he said. However, according to Epperly , being on a club team has

its good points too. ·' It (club sports) is not as demanding as university sports ,"

he said. "Players practice when they can and it doesn 't inter­fere with school work that much. "

Another advantage of being on a club team is friendship, Epperly said.

" ! have met most of my close friends at school through volleyball ," he said.

Epperly also likes the fact that the club can basically make up its own schedule.

·' We have played club teams from the U of I, Indiana State , orthern Illinois University, and from the University of Kansas to name a few ," he said . "Our schedu le var ies from year to year. "

Epperly said that the club team plays at McAffee Gym and at the Student Recreation Center when they are at home. lie added that the bulk of their season is in spring and that their tournament entry fees are returned if the team wins.

Another advantage about being on the EIU men 's volley­ball club is the fact that anyone can play.

·' We don 't cut anybody ," he said. ·'We have an informa ­tional meeting in the fall and if the players stick with it they will be on the team. " BY DANIEL DORT

YOUNG TEAM STRUGGLES The 1992-93 season marked a new beginning in the Eastern

women's basketball program. Gone were the experienced veterans that helped the Lady

Panthers to several winning seasons over the last decade. This team was full of young, inexperienced players. Consequently, the team struggled to a 3-24 overall record and a 2-14 league record in its first ever season in the Mid-Continent Conference.

The Lady Panthers fielded a team with eight freshmen , two sophomores (one of them a transfer) , a junior and two seniors. The youth left head coach Barbara Hilke and assistant coach Lori Opp at a disadvantage during the season.

Eastern's biggest wins came during the Mid-Continent season when the Lady Panthers beat Illinois-Chicago and Western Illi­nois to qualify for the post-season conference tournament.

The Lady Panthers had to face several nationally ranked teams along the way. They opened up the season at the Uni­versity of Missouri on Dec. 1, losing 68-45. They then went South for two tournaments which contained several tough teams.]

First up was the Texas-Arlington tournament where the Lady Panthers finished fourth out of four teams , losing to host Texas-Arlington and to Baylor.

Eastern later played in the Alabama tournament where it picked up its first win of the year, a 75-68 win over Grambling. While in that tournament, the Lady Panthers also faced Clem­son which was nationally ranked during the season.

Other teams the Lady Panthers faced throughout the season included Northwestern and Mid-Continent foe Northern Illinois.

"The level of competition we played was tremendous," Hilke said. "We played a lot of nationally ranked teams this year in the tournaments and against Northwestern and Northern (Illi­nois). That's more than we normally play. "

Despite the losing record, Hilke said she was pleased overall with effort put forth by the young players and senior co-cap-

146

tains Sheriel Brown and Karen McCaa. "I'm real pleased with our efforts, " she said. "We stayed

together, and with a losing record , that's tough to do. " Brown was the team leader in most offensive categories for

the Lady Panthers. She was among the Mid-Continent league leaders all season in scoring and rebounding. Brown averaged over 15 points per game while pulling down almost 10 rebounds per game. Other categories Brown led the Panthers in included field goal percentage and free throws made.

Brown scored her career high 32 points in the Panthers' first win against Grambling.

Senior McCaa was the only player on the team who had been in the Eastern program for four years. She was hampered by injuries and an illness during the season but still provided valuable experience and leadership. McCaa averaged around five points and four rebounds per game for Eastern and was one of the team's top 3-point shooters.

"Both Karen and Sheriel were outstanding co-captains and did a good job leading the team," Hilke said. "The were a good influence on the younger players and both had good seasons. "

Another big key for the Lady Panthers was the play of sophomore point guard Nicky Polka. She was among the league leaders in assists per game, averaging around six every contest. Polka also averaged double figures scoring over the fina l 15 games of the season and finished with a nine points per game average. She also led the team with 15 3-pointers.

Other key players for Eastern included red-shirt freshman Sharon Pozin, freshmen Kenya Green, Tourrie Frazier, Missy Beck and Trenise Crowell. Junior Tammy Wilkinson, sopho­more Michelle Kaiser and freshmen Jacqui White, Violet Wald­ner and Kelly Stancil also contributed.

"We improved a lot throughout the season and our knowl­edge increased greatly," Hilke said. "I look for much better things in the future. " By RYAN GUISTI

THE TRIALS OF YOUTH Following its NCAA Tournament drive of 1992, Eastern's men's basketball had to start over with all new faces in 1993. Gone were the five seniors that helped lead the Panthers to their

first-ever NCAA Tournament bid. Instead, Eastern head coach Rick Samuels had to blend sopho­

mores and juniors in an attempt to duplicate the success from the previous season.

Like any young team, the Panthers went through their growing pains - especially away from Lantz Gymnasium.

The Panthers won only one of 13 games during the regular sea­son away from home. Eastern's lone road victory came in the open­ing weekend of the conference season when it handed Youngstown State, the Mid-Continent Conference's newest member, its first-ever conference loss.

"You have to focus yourself better when you are on the road," said Samuels following the Panthers last regular season game - a loss at the University of Illinois at Chicago. "Every little thing adds up to become something bigger when you are on the road."

A pair of long losing streaks were big reasons that the Panthers finished their regular season with a 10-16 overall record. After opening the season with a win over Maine, Eastern lost six straight ames for a 1-6 start to the season. The Panthers went on another six-game losing streak midway ough the conference season. As a result they wound up tying

alparaiso for sixth in the Mid-Con with a 7-9 conference record. The Panthers had their bright spots in 1993 too. They put togeth­

r a four-game winning streak in the last few weeks of the season o give them some momentum heading into the Mid-Continent Con­erence Post season Tournament.

Several Panthers improved greatly from the beginning of the sea­on in December until the season's close in March.

Sophomore Louis Jordan was the Panthers main scoring threat for ost of the season. Jordan, a native of Oak Park, led the Panthers

in scoring averaging 14.8 points per game. He led the Panthers in scoring over half of the team's games. Jordan, who started at for­ward, scored a career-high 28 points in a home win over Youngstown.

Derrick Landrus was the Panthers' long-range bomber. Landrus, a sophomore from Charleston, led the team in 3-point field goals (52) and was second on the team in scoring (13.2) points per game. He also led the team in free throw percentage (81.2) and was second on the team in assists (76).

Joining Landrus in the Panther back-cowt was Johnny Hernan­dez. Hernandez, a freslm1an from Rockford, won a preseason battle for Eastern's point guard spot. He wound up leading the team in assists (81), steals (23) and averaged 5.3 points per game.

One of the Panthers most consistent performers down the stretch was forward Andre Rodriguez. Rodriguez, a sophomore from Oak Park, was second on the team in rebounding ( 4.3 rebounds per game) and scored 6.5 points per game. He scored a career-high 24 points and grabbed a career-high 10 rebounds in a late-season home win over Valparaiso.

One of the new faces on the Panther that played a key role was junior transfer Darrell Young. Young, a native of Kalamazoo, Mich., took over the starting center spot a few games into the season and never gave it up. He led the Panthers in rebounding (6.2 rebounds per game) and blocks (17).

The only returning starter from the NCAA team was junior Curtis Leib. He started the season as Eastern's starting center, but soon became the Panthers' top weapon off the bench. Leib, a native of Flora, was the Panthers' third leading scorer (8.2 points per game).

Eastern will return all five of its starters for the 1994 season. They will also return their top four players off the bench, junior guard Troy Collier, freshman center Walter Graham, sophomore forward Steven Nichols and sophomore guard C.]. Williams. By DON O'BRIEN

EASTERN: HOME OF THE OTHER JORDAN I want to be like LOUIS Jordan! Occasionally, an Eastern basketball fan might see this No-:23

in a blue and white uniform flying through the air at Lantz Gym for a thunderous dunk, penetrating to the basket for an easy layup or even pulling up for a three-pointer.

Although this Jordan, a sophomore, has found plenty of suc­cess in doing all of the above, he will not be seen in Michael Jackson videos or on a box of Wheaties and he probably will not have his own hamburger at a major fast food restaurant.

Where you might find Louis Jordan is at the gym working on his basketball game to make it more consistent.

"It's not as consistent as I would want it to be, it 's basically from the game," said Jordan, who is the Panthers top scorer with 13.9 points per game. "Coach (Rick Samuels) tells me to look to score, but it just depends on the game."

Jordan knows he is one of the primary scoring threats on the team but he also realizes he may be a marked man.

"It doesn't bother me," Jordan said. "If there is a case with a team throwing out a special defense for me, then I have no problem with someone else stepping up or with me doing something else than scoring to help the team, as long as we

win." Jordan, who has been a starter for most of the season, was

almost lost in the shuffle when he graduated from high school. The University of Maine was the only other school that showed a serious interest in Jordan.

"Coming out of my senior year of high school I really didn't have any schools to chose from and I decided I wasn't going way out there (Maine), Jordan said.

Some of Jordan's success may come as a surprise to many col­lege scouts who may have seen Jordan play in high school.

"I had my back to the basket all of the time in high school," Jordan said. "I really never handled the ball or shot the ball from the perimeter until I got here. A lot of people didn't know I could do these things until I got here. Coach Samuels saw that I could. "

Jordan has done just about everything at Eastern. He has seen time at the off-guard and and the post position as well as at the wing. Jordan does not mind where he plays.

"If I can score and contribute with every aspect of the game, that is the most fun for me, " he said. "I like to do a little bit of everything." By KEITH FARROLL.

NETTERS TURN SEASON AROUND The women's tennis team wound up the fall season with a 5-

0 dual match record, a far cry from last season's 3-5 fall show­ing.

A big reason for the turnaround, believe it or not, was the addition of five freshmen to the team. Coach John Ross added Terra Erickson, Kristy Sims, Stephanie Sullivan, Geeta Dua and Lesley Galer to this year's squad, and the move really paid off.

"All of them are really hard workers," Ross said of the new additions. "They really want to win bad and are willing to put in the time away from practice to get better. "

This fall, Terra Erickson lead the talented group of newcom­ers with a 15-4 singles record. Erickson made it into Ross' line­up at the No. 3 position and really proved worthy of it. In dou­bles play, Erickson teamed with Geeta Dua and the two com­piled a 12-8 mark.

Stephanie Sullivan was another freshman who had a very good fall season and wound up with a 12-6 record at the No. 6 singles position. Sullivan also shared doubles play with Kristy Sims and Lesley Galer throughout the season.

Sims and Galer combined for 17 victories in singles play as Sims went 9-3 and Galer 8-4. Dua finished at 11-3.

The highlights of the season probably occurred when Eastern won both the Eastern Illinois Invitational and the Millikin Invita­tional. Sophomore Samantha Wulfers really stood out by sport­ing an 8-0 singles record in the two tournaments.

l'i2

Another high point of the season was a 7-2 victory over Indi­ana State and a season ending 7-2 decision over Western Illi­nois. It was Indiana State who frustrated the lady Panther net­ters three times last year with two 5-4 victories. But this time out, the lady Panthers really responded in Terre Haute to keep their undefeated streak alive .

Coach John Ross pointed out that the difference in the match was that he had inked five freshman who didn't have the same memories of Indiana State as the rest of the team did , and that new look sort of paved the way for a victory.

The win over Western Illinois at the end of the season helped revenge a 8-1 lopsided defeat the year before. "This win really showed how much we had improved from last year," Ross said.

"They really hadn't lost anyone from that team that beat us a year ago and it's a real credit to us for playing them so well this time out."

In double's play, Ross had Teresa Ramage and Wulfers at the No. 1 spot with Geeta Dua and Terra Erickson at No. 2. The other two doubles teams consisted of Lisa Berg and Melissa Welch and Kristy Sims and Stephanie Sullivan.

As a team, Eastern had a 97-44 singles match record with a 54-22 doubles mark. Overall, the total record of matches came to a 161-60 mark. The future looks bright for this team, as everyone will be returning and will have at least a couple years of eligibility left. By MATT MAHARG

SUN SHINES ON LADY PANTHERS The women's track team got off to a rough start at the begin­

ning of the 1991-92 season, but finished strong. Indoors there wasn't much to applaud. With numerous injuries,

the Lady Panthers weren't very successful in the regular season. The high point, however, was a first place finish at their home invitational in January, before the injuries set in. The team's showing at the Gateway championships in March was dismal to say the least. Eastern's scored only two points to place ninth.

Donna Levy grabbed a sixth place in the 55-meter hurdles for one of those points, while the 4x400 relay took sixth as well for the other.

So when the outdoor season came around, head coach John Craft was more than ready to start off fresh.

"We really got blitzed indoors," said Craft. "With the injuries we had, it was real frustrating. We couldn't wait for the outdoor sea­son to start."

Once it did, the team started to gain some momentum. The Lady Panthers never finished very high in the few scored invita­tionals in which they took part, but had many gold-plated indi­vidual performances over the course of the season.

Chief among those was senior Laurie Mizener whose distance running exploits were rarely rivaled. She excelled especially at 10,000 meters, establishing a best time of 36:20.9 at the Drake Relays. The multi-circuit events were a strong area for the team as Mizener was often joined by Ti Jaye Rhudy, Amy Bersig, Irma Perez and Brooke Roberts when taking down the opposition.

In April, Mizener and Rhudy made the team's fourth place fin-

ish out of 11 at the Illini classic look even better in taking the first two places in the 5,000.

Another strong area on Craft's squad was the throwing events. Javelin thrower Michelle Warren, and shot put/ discus specialists Denise Hubbard, Chris Gutel and Dee Dee Zeigler were many times among the top placers in those events.

Again, the high point outdoors was the home Invitational , where Warren won the javelin at 145 feet 9 inches, while others were nearly as triumphant. Denise Hubbard took second in both the shot and discus. In the discus she was followed closely by Gutel and Zeigler in third and fourth . Jennifer Cochran was sec­ond in the 200 at 26.00. Rhudy was third in the 1,500, two places ahead of Bersig, while Kim Richardson edged teammate Sarah Marvin by a 1/ 4 inch to take third in the long jump. The 4x100 relay of Cochran, Marvin, Carman Harvey and Levy took second. The same foursome also took third in the 4x400.

The Gateway meet saw the Lady Panthers take sixth. Mizener claimed wins in both the 5,000 and 10,000. Kim Double and Richardson went 3-4 in the high jump, both clearing 5'4 1/ 2", with double edging Richardson with less misses. Warren also claimed a third place in the javelin.

"All and all our outdoor season was a lot better, " Craft said. "We started to put together a pretty good season near the end. Laurie Mizener was just a tremendous success st01y after having so many problems with injuries in years prior. Things really came together for her senior season. I really hated to see her go."

SWIMMERS BREAK INDIVIDUAL GOALS At the start of the 1992-93 swimming season head coach Ray

Padovan knew that his men's squad would be a little short on swimmers, and unfortunately, things didn't get any better.

"We were a little bit low in numbers at the start of the sea­son, and things got worse," Padovan said. "Some of them (swimmers) dropped off for whatever reason . We struggled a bit, especially in some of the dual meets with a lack of num­bers."

The men's squad did not post a good dual meet record, but that did not stop them from breaking individual goals and records.

"Actually, when we look at what we did at the end of the year, we had a phenomenal season," Padovan said. "The place wasn't what we wanted but as far as what the individuals did and what they accomplished, most everybody we had swam lifetime best times, and you can't ask for any better than that."

When the men returned from the College Swim Forum that was held in Fort Lauderdale over Christmas break, their season seemed to take a turn for the better.

After tough losses at the Bradley Invitational and at Western Illinois, it looked like they had a victory at Millikin. But they came up one fresh swimmer short in the last event and lost by two points. Then in February, they beat Principia College and went on to the Mid-East Championships where a number of their swimmers turned in great performances.

"We really felt like it was a great season regardless of win­loss record or anything else," said Coach Padovan. "We have some swimmers that have really progressed and it's going to

154

be a lot to build on next year." Senior Shawn O'Neill had a strong season in what was his

first full season at Eastern. He saw limited action his freshman year because of Nation­

al Guard duty, and as a sophomore he was called to the Per­sian Gulf for Desert Storm. As a junior, he suffered a sever on his arm and did not complete the season. O'Neill will return next year with a full year of eligibility left.

Sophomore Jason Wrone was a welcome phenomenon for the men's squad this year. Wrone, who had a decent year last year as a freshman, surprised many including Coach Padovan.

"Jason Wrone was just phenomenal,"said Coach Padovan. "He did a good job last year and just progressed fantastically."

Wrone accomplished his goal of breaking two minutes in the 200 butterfly and also improved greatly in the freestyle .

Another young member of the men's squad that has con­tributed tremendously is freshman Mark Donahue. Donahue is the only current diver on the men's team and has handled the pressure well.

Donahue learned six new dives in his first season and also a whole routine for the 3M board. He finished 8-8 in dual meets and in the win at Principia College, cane within 40 points of breaking the school record in the 1M board. Donahue will be joined by two or maybe three new divers next season.

WOMEN SWIMMERS PROSPER The women's swimming squad completed a very successful

season, and although they are losing a number of valuable seniors , good depth and a number of good recruits should help the Lady Panthers continue their winning ways.

The women's squad finished with a dual meet record that was over .500 and also had a very impressive 3-1 invitational record.

"The women had a good year," said Head Coach Ray Padovan. "We were so well balanced all the way through."

The squad was improved greatly when they acquired junior transfer Debbie Habben last year and also with senior transfer Jamey Meneley this year.

The women started the season with losses to Butler and Val­paraiso at a meet in Indianapolis , and then tore through the rest of the season winning four straight dual meets and six of their last nine.

After stumbling in their first meet, the women beat the Uni­versity of Indianapolis, Northeastern Illinois, and Bradley before finishing second at the Panther Invitational to Evansville University by a mere 13 points.

The Lady Panthers then beat St. Louis University and started the month of December with a rematch against Evansville , this time in a dual meet. The Aces overcame Eastern again by another slim margin, 29 points.

The women continued to swim strongly as they won the Vincennes Invitational before Christmas break, and then won the Bradley Invitational in Peoria after participating in the Col­lege Swim Forum in Fort Lauderdale over break.

Down the stretch of the season, the Lady Panthers won two dual meets and lost two before coming to the Mid-East Cham­pionships in February where they would win for the third

straight year. The women did not fare well in the Mid-Conti­nent Conference meet but that could not but a damper on such a fine season.

Coach Padovan was very pleased with the women. "Right across the board we really had a tremendous season," he said.

Four of Eastern's swimming records were broken this sea­son. Sophomore Annell Metzger broke two ten year old records in the 500 free and the 1000 free. Metzger also figured in another record as she, seniors Debbie Habben and Kim Beasey, and junior Ronae Scheuer broke a record in the 800 free relay. The fourth record was broken by freshman Maridee Hisgen in the 200 IM.

One of the obvious standouts for the women's squad this season is sophomore Annell Metzger. Along with three records , Metzger helped to provide the depth that the Lady Panthers so well utilized this season as well as being able to return for two more seasons for a squad losing seven seniors.

"I think the outlook for us next year is pretty good," said Metzger.

Other standouts returning for Eastern next year are freshmen Martha Weidlich and Maridee Hisgen, and juniors Heather Hof­man and Ronae Scheuer.

Of the six leaving include Kim Beasey who has had a tremendous career at Eastern. Even though she has been ham­pered a bit by injuries this year, she does leave Eastern with school records in the 400 IM and the 200 fly.

Transfers Debbie Habben and Jamey Meneley leave after short but prosperous careers at Eastern, and Debbie Habben and DeLynn Wirth finish after successful careers as well. Divers Karen Adkins and Lisa Otto are graduating as well. BY PAUL DEMPSEY

There is an organization at Eastern where its members don 't focus on campus on campus events or the students. These people focus on the problems and human rights of people around the world.

Amnesty International, according to its 1991 Handbook , is a "worldwide movement independent of any govern­ment, political persuasion or religious creed. It does , however, play a specific role in the international protec­tion of human rights. "

At Eastern, Amnesty International formed five years ago by graduate student Antionette Spinner. Today , a group of 15 Eastern students participate in the organization.

According to Karen Petri, Amnesty president for East­ern's chapter, the purpose of the group is to write letters asking the release of hostages in foreign countries and to give information on prisoners to be sure they are given

Amnesty International is a "worldwide movement independent of any government, political persuasion or religious creed.

fair trials. "Amnesty is a fairly obscure organization. It is an effec­

tive organization to inform people who want to hear, " Petri explained.

Petri said that most people only know about Amnesty from posters about the death penalty, which most people tear down.

The death penalty issue is very important to Amnesty. In its 1991 report it states, "Amnesty opposes the death penalty and torture or other cruel, inhuman or degrading treatment or punishment of all prisoners without reserva­tion. "

In fact, last year the group debated the issue with State's Attorney's Assistant Mike Novak. However, Petri explained the group is non-political. "It focuses on human rights , not politics ," she said.

While Eastern 's Amnesty chapter is fairly small, Amnesty International has more than one million mem­bers in over 150 countries. In all , Amnesty has about six thousand groups who fight on behalf of human rights.

Eastern 's chapter has been active in the past year for the organization. Some of its activities include fundraisers for research purposes and the popular Freedom Fest, which is an annual fundraiser where area bands perform. In addition , Amnesty members stay active by writing let­ters for the rights of prisoners.

Its publication cites , "It is a time to remain outraged by the continuation of gross violations of human rights- and to identify the situations which individuals , governments and the international community will be ashamed of tomorrow if we don 't act today. " By ABBY KRAKOW and COLETTE FLEMING

MY FEAR~~ MOM'~ TEAR~

160

ABOVE: Everything always seems lighter moving it into tb car.

The joys o f mo ving on campus .. . the b lood , the sweat, the tears ( literally!). D o you remember the first night you spent on cam­pus?

Like many freshman students, Derek Coy had the help of his parents on moving day. 'The move went pretty smoothly with their help. In the end, my mom cried and my dad wished me luck , to ld me not to pany too hard and to study hard. "

Un like Coy's smooth experience with moving in, many fresh­man are nervous and a l ittle uneasy about cutting the strings fro1 home.

Charnelle Conley, a freshman from Chicago, w as a little appre­hensive w hen she first moved in. ·'] was nervous w hen I first arrived , but my roommate is a friend from high school."

Some people are not so lucky, fellow classmate j enny Wilhel­men did not know her roommate upon arrival. ·'J was w orried

about having a party animal for a roommate. I had never met her before and had no idea what she was like. "

Many students experience the same apprehensions before moving in. Jeff Cann, Coy's roommate , was worried about how hard the academics would be. "From what I've seen so far , the social life is fine , but I worry about how difficult the classes will be ," said Cann.

The overall safety of the campus also concerned some stu­dents. ·'I chose my friend as my roommate so I wouldn 't have to worry about locking my stuff up. I can trust her, " said Conley.

"My biggest concern is walking through the campus by myself. I've heard so many stories .. .! haven 't seen where those little phones are on campus yet ," said Wilhelmen.

With the help of Eastern 's Panther Pals like sophomores Joe Cantona and Lori Radzus , most freshmen were able to move in

without a hitch.

"We [Panther Pals] moved in over 820 students in Carman the weekend before school began. People were literally parking on the grass outside of the residence hall. Someone even knocked clown a light pole in the parking lot," said Cantona.

·'It was so busy, we could barely walk through the lobby, " remembered Radzus.

·'The funniest thing was that people were actually ttying to tip us for helping them move in, and they also wanted to rent the carts to move their bags ," exclaimed Cantona.

Looking back, the first clays on campus were probably both emotional and comical for some students. If you are a senior, you can be thankful that those moving clays are almost over. If you are a freshman, you can look fotward to many more semesters of that joyous event. By COLETTE FLEMIN G

CULTURE, STUDY

162

''Bonjour! Bienvenue a Toulon. " Warm welcomes from excited faces greeted many American college students as they stepped of of their planes into a brand new culture. With suitcases in their hands and courage in their hearts, each student prepared to face the unique challenge of studying abroad.

"Studying abroad is a fantastic experience," said Sarah Dettmer, assistant to Dr. Wolfgang Schlaugh, coord inator of the study abroad programs. ·' You Gtn read and hea r French in the class­room. But the culture is rich and you really can 't have it ~my othe way.

Dettmer and Schlaugh mainly help students to find the perfect program for their majors. According to Schlaugh, the students mu first fill out various applications concerning coursework and inter est level. Next, students must sift through hundreds of choices an pick a few possibilities.

·'We have many scholarships and exchange programs program~ for the students to examine,'' Schlaugh stated.

Schlaugh said that the avai lability of scholarship money w ill often help students determine which program to choose, as in th case of Yvonne Brzozowski.

·'Dr. Schlaugh and [ went over prices and the conditions o f th different programs. That helped me decide on !the center for Eur pean Studies in Toulon, France],'' Brzozowski said.

The programs offer many opportunities for all kinds of studen ·'We get many different majors who come to us to study in o ther countries,'' Schlaugh stated.

Schlaugh said that students might choose a university in EngLtJ

to study literature and the o rig in of English. O r students may choose Rome or Greece for studying architecture. ·' Lately, w e've had a lo t of interest in Australia as well as the European nations,'' he sa id.

Schlaugh explained that once the student has chosen a pro­gram, he or she must make travel arrangements and secure accommodations fo r the ensuing semester. In some cases, the hosting college w ill provide housing and p lane tickets. Usually, the students must find a place to stay on their own. They may rent an apartment o r they may stay w ith a family.

Many exchange students enjoy the atmosphere of family life. " I got used to their routine,'' Brzozowski sa id. She lived w ith the Planis family in Toulon. " I got to w here I liked to follow their customs- like sitting down at family meals."

Residing w ith a foreign family also fo rces a student to improve language skills. Antoinette Mcintosh, w ho lived w ith the Gluck family and attended the same school as Brzozowski sa id, ·'You learn the everyday things you say to get by. They don't teach all of those things in class.··

In addition to communicating in French at home, the Center for European Studies also forced its visiting students to speak French. "All of the courses were taught in French. Learning International T rade and Finance in French was p retty hard. It got very difficult to understand. " Mcintosh sa id .

Not only could the students gain knowledge o f their host countty in the classroom, they also got a chance to sample the culture by site-seeing .

The Eurorail in France gave Mcintosh and Brozozowski the opportunity to tour all of Europe. ·'You can just hop on a tra in to get anywhere," explained Brzozowski. ·'And it's very safe. The conductors are expecting to see a lot of students," she added.

So w here do students go w hen they have all of Europe at their fingertips' ''We went to Barcelona in Spain and we got to see the preparations for the O lym pics,'' Mcintosh stated. ·'The hour we spent in Rome was also an experience. My friend and I w ere robbed twice!"

Mcintosh and Brzozowski didn't need to leave France in order to find adventure. They visited Paris, Marsa ille, Canes and Avignon , as well as enjoying the landscape o f the Cote D 'Azur (the French Riviera).

Brzozowski stated, "With so many attractions to visit and so many experiences to enjoy, leaving became vety difficult.''

When Brzozowski first arrived , she felt "nervous and over­w helmed by the change of language and people. " However, soon she became addicted to France. ''I tried to stay for the sum­mer. It was hard for me to leave such a beautiful city."

Mcintosh also experienced her feel ings about limitations. ·'There's just not enough time to learn everything!" she lament­ed.

Though the students couldn 't absorb all of the culture in one visit, they still had the benefit of seeing a foreign way of l ife. When they arrived, they felt apprehensive, but w hen they left they took w ith them the richness of their cultural encounters. By REBECCA SUNDIN and VIRGINIA PETREIKIS

AN IDEA, A

164

Accurately described as the "smorgasbord of the arts, .. Festival

CREATION of the Arts is Eastern 's claim to fame as the one of the nation 's premiere atts festival.

Since 1977, Eastern 's campus has annually celebrated the arts during the last weekend of April. The founder of the Festival of the Arts , Vaughn Jaenike, highlighted some of the main events from the 1992 Festival.

"We had over 65 booths with everything from crafts to food. We also had booths which demonstrated things like glass blow­ing, metal pouring and caricatures, " Jaenike said.

According to Jaenike, the Festival incorporates anything that has to do with the arts. The College of Arts is the primary sponsor of this annual event, being heavy in the areas of music, an, theater, dance and film.

Perhaps the reason Eastern's Festival of the Arts is considered to be a premiere festival is due to a selective planning committee.

Jaenike said that the process of selecting the various attists and groups which have booths at the festival is a very selective one.

·'Anyone interested in having a booth at the Festival has to submit a formal proposal to the selection comm ittee. Members of the committee look at the artists ' samples in order to be sure each booth is unique," Jaenike said.

Not only does the committee try to be unique with the artists, they also tty to incorporate different types of food.

"The food booths are usually sponsored and managed by stu­dent groups. The most interesting thing we had this year was buffalo burgers!" Jaenike said.

Eastern and the Charleston community both look f01ward to the Festival of the Arts. Each year, artists have the chance to dis­play their work and the public is able to buy unique art not found in stores.

"Both the Eastern and the Charleston community benefit

because it [the Festival] provides a festive atmosphere to cele­brate the atts," jaenike said.

jaenike advised that students who are interested in learning how to plan and organize an event shou ld look into the Festival. Some students are also involved with various activities such as running food and crafts booths, doing presentations and helping set up and clean up after the Festival.

As with any event, the Festival of the Atts continually tries to utilize all new ideas. Although the Festival has been around since 1977, evety one is different in content.

Jim Johnson, co-chair of the 1993 Festival, said that he will try to incorporate both the visual and performing arts.

johnson stressed more student involvement to generate fresh ideas to the Festival. "We try to bring as much diversity to the Festival as possible, involving as many people as we can .. , By COLETTE FLEMING

TWO DIRECTOR~~ TWO PLAY~

Controversy entered the theater of Eastern last spring with two plays but the show must go on .

'' 1 see us starting a whole 'Last Temptation of Christ' thing," said Paul Wiemerslage, senior director for ''Psycho Beach Party," ·'protesters and all.''

lie speaks of the two controversia l plays, ·'Psycho Beach Party" and "Vampire Lesbians of Sodom," performed on the university pl:~yroom stage.

'' It's such a sma ll town and such a sma ll conse rv:~tive ca mpus," he contin ued. ·'We just have to be careful about what we do."

·'This is the only show that I have ever done that l would be worried if my parents wou ld come," added Stephen P. Ca rmody, senior director of ·'Vampire.'·

The content, however, doesn't affect their overall attitudes toward their shows.

"Bad publicity is sometimes better than good publicity because more people hear about it, .. Wiemerslage said.

But troubles with content and citi zen reactions are the least of both men ·s problems.

"Every week it has been something like this,·· Wiemerslage said. ·'Steve lost an actor due to financial reasons, I lost an actor due to illness, budget cuts have taken all our tech workers, all of our set and costume workers, so basically people are working for free ."

Cast problems aside, it sti ll hasn 't been a smooth first few steps on the road to directing stardom.

"We are down to a bare bones budget," Wiemerslage said . ·' I mean Steve and I are scraping pennies, we are paying for our own posters and programs. We even have to design our own posters and programs. "

·'But that doesn't really bother me, .. interrupted Carmody. ·' It will give us a chance to show both the students and the faculty and everyone in the university that students can get together and do something on their own.··

"Coming together·· seems to ring true for both gentlemen. This theater relationship, whose origin Gin be tr:tccd lxtck to Buffalo Grove lligh school. continues to wind down a sim ilar path here at Eastern with both Wicmcrslagc and Carmody's directorial debuts having shared not only the same week but the same tur­moil as well.

The night before, within the small confines of the university's playroom both men went about their respective duties in con­ducting the final week of rehearsals for their stage productions.

Both conducted rehearsal in the same playroom, for plays slat­ed for the same week, with the same general tongue-in-check quality. Both men conducted the an of their directing in different manners.

Nearly bouncing off the playroom walls with the same energy that he constantly requires of his actors, Wiemerslage·s emotions ranged from looks of displeasure to the simple sigh of a scene well done. Demanding of his actors hut still respectful of their ideas.

During one of the few points in time where he stopped to consider a scene's execution, he would stand posed in the clas­sic directors stance arms folded , eyes focused forward and his nicotine stained hands framing his unshaven face .

Periodic cries of ·'paint the scene" and ·' forget good acting rul es for this scene," echoed through the nearly empty cham­bers.

··This is the first full sca le directing I have done beyond basic in-class scene directing," he stated.

"My style is very different than what Steve·s is," he explained, .. , tend to move around more in order to find different angles and Steve tends to stay in one place ...

Only two hours later, the opposite end of the directing spec­trum was found positioned quietly in the top row of the play­room.

Carmody sat nearly motionless with his head buried in the script and hands full with a notebook, marking down points and improvements to be brought up at the end of the Monday evening practice.

All evening he was motionless, but not emotionless. When working with friends as actors ·' it is not a matter of me

becoming the dictator and saying ·we're not friends anymore' or ·You must do as I say, ... said Carmody. " It's more a 'let's get together and have fun attitude ' and if something must be said , then say it. ..

·' In my rehearsals, everybody can say what they feel about what's going on in terms of changing things, in terms of how we are rehea rsing, what needs to be worked on in a scene. I think that the fact that we are friends helps us, so we can talk to each other and work thing out better. ..

What started as a seriously formatted discussion of the events and experiences which led to the successful execution of student directed productions, soon turned to a discussion of " issues" that cross the random mind of a director who must balance the strug­gles and pressures of higher education with the fears and anxi­eties of being a director.

A WOMAN, HER MUSIC

170

To the dimly lit surroundings of Gaye I Iarrison's Charleston home, the musicians brought their !nstruments to play.

They gathered to ready their pertormance and to sharpen their skills fo r Saturday afternoon 's Fo lk Fest at the Rathskeller in the Martin Luther King Jr. University Union, in connection w ith the nationwide celebration o f Women's I listory Month.

The tloor o f the home's front room - w hich served that Tuesday night as their pra~tice studio- was a wasteland , populated only by a diverse array ot acoustical instruments, standard steel music stands, reams of scattered sheet music and a random mosaic o f cas settes and CDs.

Sturdy antiques stood along the side of a modern enterta inment center. The room w as collectively an odd mixture of the old with the new.

And thus will be the direction of their music. Traditionalist folk , whose origin and author cannot be traced , wi

be combined Saturday with the mainstream pop-fo lk of today to create the patchwork o f music that w ill be performed - a meshing of the classic early American "hoedown" style ranging all the w ay to modern artists such as the Indigo Girls and Bonnie Raitt.

I Iarrison , an oroanizer o f this year's Folk Fest and a featured per former, explainecf'that the music is focused mainly on songs writte by women so to b lend with the celebrated theme o f the month.

"1\o Bobby Dylan, I guess,'' sa id a voice from the shadows in th<. back o f the room.

"No," I Iarrison agreed. Perhaps no Dylan-penned arrangements this year, but the bill

is far from "an exclusive thing" to women, she assured . It is a ·'celebration of the music" primarily, no t the gender.

Folk music has always been populated by those fi~urcs \\'ho have talent on such a grand scale that they loom so large they shade and block an entire genre. They arc the only ones who receive the accolades. They are the likes of a Bob D ylan, Arlo or Woody Guthrie, john Prine, and joni Mitchell -some of whose recordings were scattered randomly on the floor.

Harrison compared the music of the Folk Fest to the "loud bands" downtown. The Fest wil l be a comparatively quiet, yet still powerful evening, guaranteed the performers.

" It's a good alternative to what's out there on a Charleston Sat­urday night,·• Harrison said.

The diverse elements of both song and idea come together in folk music. It is these elements of universal understanding of incli­vidual experiences that the Fest intends to relate together, accorcl­ino to Harrison, to create a "patchwork of many lives."

This music, which exists as a patchwork of art and artist, had similar beginnings as the vehicle in which it will soon be present­ed locally.

Folk music, according to fellow performer julie Rca, "started on front po rches." And in a manner of speaking, the Folk Fest did as well.

There had existed a hole in the schedule of events for the Women·s I listory and Awareness Month ca lendar, T Iarrison said , and she suggested the idea which would later become the Folk Fest.

I Iarrison continued that the Fest \Vas a project that the perform­ers had always intended to do, and when a weekend was found free in the month's celebratio.n, they snatched the opportunity.

Rca, from her chair in the front room of I Iarrison's abode, said that the event" would not have come together without the many groups, businesses and individuals from this and surrounding communities that chose to hack the _project.

She continued that the creation of sound and supportive spon­sors were key factors in rea lization of the Fest project.

During the interview, the discussion was haulted on several occasions \Vhile practice continued. When that didn't occur, ner­\·ous pickings on various guitars filled the silent pauses between question and ans\Ycr.

On one occasion, another performer in attendance, Brooke Young, was listening to the conversation around her and strum­ming a familiar tune.

·That's Kansas,·· a fellow musician pointed out. ··r don't know, .. said Young. ·'Sometimes you just pick the thing

up and stuff hegins to play." And play they did on that Tuesday March evening. BY ].A.

Imagine living in a place where conclitons are bleak. A place where there may not be dinner on the table because there is no

money. A place where there is a shortage of water. Where there is no advanced technology in hospital equipment to provide hope for the dying. Where one can't receive an education clue to lacking education funds.

A place where conditions like this occur is in Haiti , a country located in the West Indies. With a population of 5,862,000, Haiti is considered to be the poorest nation in the Western Hemisphere.

Although there are groups that try to help the Haitians hope for a better liv­ing, conditions cannot be changed overnight.

Karina Voloclka, a junior zoology and pre-med major, is pa1t of the Ilaiti Connection, a student organization on campus through the Newman Catholic Center. Along with two other students and a campus minister, she visited Ilaiti last May. They stayed at St. .Joseph Ilospice, which is an organization run by volunteers from the states.

Voloclka applied for the scholarship that is offered by Haiti Connection. After applying, she had to read anicles on conditions in Haiti and present her response to the campus minister, faculty advisors and two individuals who had been on the trip before. "Basically we had to make sure we would feel com­fortable in certain situations such as the water shortage," Volodka said.

Part of what Haiti Connection does to help Haitians is to organize fundrais­ers for programs to help improve living conditions.

Before going to llaiti, donations were collected from students, citizens and area businesses. Those donations provided medical supplies, school supplies and clothing which could be delivered to the Haitians.

Volodka spent time helping out in clinics, chilclrens homes and area homes. She helped distribute food to families and played with children who were sick.

According to Volodka. the medical technology is lacking. There is no advanced equipment to help the sick. ''We would go the the clinics hoping to

make the patients feel comfortable-to make them smile or laugh,·' she said. Voloclka explained a visit to the home for the sick and the dying. This

home consists of volunteer nurses who will care for the sick and to keep incli­vicluals from dying in the streets.

Voloclka noted that most of the illnesses were either tuberculosis or AIDS, although the leading cause of death is malnourishment.

·'As a pre-med major, I am learning that human touch works just as well as medical assistance," she said.

She explained that malnurtrition is something that cannot be fought off. ··People are dying from a common colct,·· Voloclka said.

She also visited a garden project that was sponsored by l laiti Connection. Money was raised earlier to grow a crop of beans for the people. Since Haiti has poor soil conditions, unproductive methods of cultivation and land man­agement, Haiti has to import at least a quarter of its food.

The group's most recent program is a project that will provide kitchens in some of the homes so the individuals do not have to eat off of the dirty floors. Voloclka noted that they are trying to incorporate the idea of sanita­tion to the families.

Even though living conditions are very bad, Voloclka said the Haitians spir­its are vety high.

'·It's amazing because my eyes were opened to a different way of life. " she said. ·These people l ive clay to clay wondering if they will have money to buy food for the next night. "

Although there are some government jobs, Voloclka said workers only receive $3 a clay. She stated that most Haitians who have jobs work as street vendors selling fruit, charcoal or art.

Although there is a small percent of elite in Haiti, the only time the rich are united with the poor is at church. While most Haitians are predominately Catholic, there is practice of Protestantism and Vauclou.

For Voloclka, she said it was hard to see people live in such horrible cond­tions.

"It makes me ang1y because we are so rich and we can·t do enough to help these people.'· she said. Each night Voloclka·s group reflected on situations that happened during the clay. She stated that most of the group felt helpless and confused.

Volodka said she sometimes wondered what they actually doing for the people. Not being able to change conditions--even though they wanted to­was the part that was so tough for her.

"By taking time to reflect. I learned that just by making someone smile, we were making a difference somehow," Voloclka said.

··we do not realize how much we take for granted in the United States," she pointed out. ·These people really have nothing to live for yet they keep their faith and are happy. You begin to realize that your problems are ridiculous. We tend to focus on little things and wony about them. "

According to Voloclka the literacy rate is not that good. ·'just because the people are poor doesn·t mean they do not try," Volodka said. ''The children do go to school. but new teaching strategies are not available to the school system. "

While visiting Haiti. the group sponsored a soccer team for the children. ··we pro,·ided soccer balls, uniforms and had tons of fun, " Volodka said.

Volodka plans to work in a unclerserved area. "Being in pre-med is a big dedication. l"ve had to give up social life at school , but with the sacrifices I am making now, I will be able to make a difference in people·s lives," she said. ··It"s a door to opponunity I never have seen before until I went to Haiti.··

Being in Haiti was shocking. "You see conditions like this all the time on T.V .. but you can always turn the T.V. off," Volodka said. '·But once you·ve

been in a place to see the conditions. you·ll never forget it. " By LIZ SZORC

WORKSHOPS, JOBS

'::2 - ~-=-

jobs are hard to come by on Eastern's campus, but Kristin Thorrson claims she found hers when she "bumped into it on accident. " Never for once thinking that her assignment for student publications would become her home away from the dorm.

The craft depot offers many se1vices from mending to banner making, but is basically there for student creativity. The Depot also runs worksho throughout the year. Curious about the Depot, Kristin asked for a schedu of the workshops offered for the spring semester. Ceramics, tie dying, rex tiles, copper enameling, and calligraphy were some of the workshops offered. But the one that caught Kristin 's eye was the stained glass work shop.

Kristin had taken a stained glass class in high school and had enjoyed i She signed up for the workshop offered through the Depot to brush up o her technique.

The first project Kristin completed was a sun catcher that she later gav to her sister as a gift. The next project was not as simple.

Diann Gunn, the director of the Craft Depot and the instructor of the stained glass workshop, was sure Kristin had bitten off more than she could chew. Kristin had decided to do a piece that was approximately 2 feet by 10 inches. Not only was the size ove1whelming, the design includ eel 45 pieces of glass. According to Kristin , "Diann was sure I would neve, tinish it."' r

Once Diann saw Kristin 's determination and the amount of time she p

Cra.fi Depot provides stude12ls with a wide variety ofprojects. Pictured are some stu­dents displaying their newlyfound talents in the Cra:fi Depot. Photos by Sarah Antonio

into the project, she knew her first judgements were wrong. As Kristin·s project progressed, Diann watched her technique improve and noticed the patience she had with the large piece. She made Kristin an offer.

"Diann asked me if I would he interested in teaching the workshop the next semester," Kristin reca lls.

That was three and a half years ago, and Kristin has been teaching the workshop ever since. During the fall semester of her sophomore year Diann was there to help her run the first couple of classes, hut has been on her own since then.

Just like her first project, Kristin uses the sun catcher in her own workshops. "It may seem simple, hut it has all the elements you need to make a large piece, " Kristin explains.

Kristin loves to teach the workshop, but at times it is frustrating. ''You show the students what to do and help them accomplish these beautiful pieces, but sometimes it 's nerve wracking. I don't have time to work on anything of my own," she said. Maybe this year she will work on some of her own pieces.

The Craft Depot is run by a dozen employees, most of which are art majors. Kristin is an exception, a medical technology major. She describes working at the Depot as, " one big family, with Diann as mom. "

As a family, they have dealt with some pretty odd experiences. Since most students don't know what takes place at the Depot, they

have had to answer some pretty strange requests. The most unusual of which are compiled in a list on the wall of the Depot.

The strangest request Kristin has received comes to mind easily for her. "Could you help me make a man'" was the question that she heard one clay from a student that was competing in the Miss Black El pageant. She needed some help with her talent act and wanted to make a life size doll she could dance with. By the time the "man'' was finished, all of the workers had collaborated on it. After the competi­tion, the student presented her man as a gift of thanks to the Craft Depot.

Kristin spends approximately six hours a week in the Craft Depot. "When you go into work , you never know what to expect,'' as she has an assortment of duties. Sometimes she reaches tie dying workshops. She also helps the other employees prepare for their workshops. "Everybody has their area of expertise, and we all help each other our as much as possible. "

Kristin also works in the mending department. ·'You 'd be surprised at some of the predicaments people come in with. " Kristin remembers an incident when a student arrived in need of repairs clone on the sweats he was wearing at the time. "One time, the Music department wanted us to mend their organ cover."

Rush was only a short four clays- Aug. 23 to Aug. 26. According to Behrens, over 400 girls went through rush and around 300 girls accepted a bid from one of the eight sororities at Eastern.

"This was an excellent turnout this year, " Behrens said. "Quota (the highest number of girls one sorority can take during rush) was two higher than last fa ll . Last

LIFE, CARE

Students of all races , colors ~tnd backgrounds were ready to pull up their sleeves and donate blood during the last week of September in Eastern's ·'Generic Blood Drive.··

The blood drive is an annual event at Eastern Illinois Universi­ty. "We try to find places like Eastern which are consistent and reliable sources for blood donors," stated David Cline, consultant for the American Red Cross.

'·Our goal this year was 1500 pints,'' said Gwen Little, physical education instructor.

As an instructor, Little was able to entice her students into donating by offering extra credit. She encouraged Eastern 's faculty to do the same.

Eastern students cited many different reasons for their decision to donate blood.

Senior elementary education major, Carrie Stringer said she

gave blood ·'to help other people live." She added that once she received extra credit in a class for giving blood.

The reasons people give blood are as varied as donating for extra cred it to donating for the simple excuse of humanity. Many students joked that the reason they were there was for free food.

Sheny Phillips, senior physical education major, sa id self-grati­fication was her reason to donate. ''It makes me feel good that I can help another person in a desperate situation.··

Freshman Chad Surles donated for the first time this year. His reason was to simply save a life. ·'It's something nice I could do," he said. ·'If I was in that position (to receive blood), I would want someone to help me."

Friendly competition also brought the students to Lantz gym to donate.

Sigma Chi pledge Tim Hubble said he tried to give blood to help his fraternity compete w ith other fraternities on campus in

blood donations. Because he was sick, he was unable to donate, but he was there for moral support of his fraternity brothers.

The fraternities were not the only group to compete in the blood drive. The residence halls also competed among them­selves for a plaque to the hall with the most pints donated.

Although most people think they can 't help the cause if they don·t donate, there are other ways one can lend a hand.

Gina DiPaola , a junior computer management major, volun­teered her time to assist the Red Cross staff. "It was something 1 could do to help ,., DiPaola said.

In the end a total of 1,216 pints of blood were donated, 284 pints short of the 1, 500 pint goal.

FRESH AIR, FUTURE

182

Did you ever stop and think w hat the world might be like in the yea r 2000? Will our children be able to play outside and breathe fresh air1 Will our beautiful lakes and fo rests be destroyed because of landfills and lack of careful preservation? The answers to these questions lie in our hands.

As busy college college students, it sometimes seems so triv ial to wony about environmental issues. We may not experience the effects now, but someday it may be our own children who will su ffer. It is comforting to know that there is a group of con­cerned students who arc dedicated to improving our environment on campus. E.A.R.T.I I. (Expanding Awareness and Responsibility Towards Humanity) has taken on a positive approach in making changes in the world.

According to Bill Frain, president, the organization has just recently gained the attention of the public eye. "Our goal has

been to increase awareness of environmental issues in the world , as well as on campus," Frain said.

Looking around campus, many students have helped to pro­mote E.A.R.T.H. through the use of the Eco-Cup. Reusing the Eco-Cup has helped preserve many trees and gain the attention of curious students, as well.

E.A.R.T.H. has sponsored a variety of events to raise money for environmental organizations all over the world. They have sent money to food pantries and donated to causes for the preservation of rain forests.

On October 17, E.A.R.T.H held a 12-mile bicycle ride to help fund charitable causes. It was a brisk October clay, but 23 enthusiastic bikers joined together to make the event a success.

Sean Cummings, an eager rider, said , "It was a vety scenic ride covering the outskirts of Charleston. I enjoyed doing some-

thing to help improve the community. " The riders came from all ranges of biking experience, but they all worked together to complete the ride.

Along with the fall bike ride, E.A.R.T.H. also sponsors the Peacefest in the spring. This event gives the students the opportunity to cure their post-winter blues. Students receive information concerning environmental issues while various bands perform. Not only is it a good time, but it opens minds to ideas that most people never think about.

E.A.R.T.H. has proved to be an positive role model for other organizations to follow. Their efforts to make improvements in the world will someday prove to be worth-while. Our children will be able to play outside and enjoy the fresh air, just as we once did. Anyone with the desire can make a difference. It is never too late to tty. By KAREN HALM

With increased awareness of health in the 90s, many Eastern stu­dents are going to the Rec Center to get thei r bodies in shape.

In fact, according to Recreational Sports Director David Dutler, the Rec Center services about 80 pe rcent of Eastern's student bod­ies. Many Eastern students felt the Rec Center is an asset to the campus.

"Physical education is very important to the students, especially with everyone wanting to be physically fi t," said Brad Opiola, junior physical education major. "That basically motivates you to come to the Rec Center."

Kara Phillips, sophomore elementary education major, goes to the Rec Center eve1yday, working out for about an hour an a half. She felt the facility is an asset, as well. "It's nice to have a place to go. A lot of other schools don't have a nice gym like Eastern's."

Bridget Riddell, senior home economics major, agreed with both Opiola and Phillips. "It (the Rec Center) makes you want to come out and stay in shape. People want to be more healthy in the 90s. This promotes that. I also think it's nice because if it's cold , it gives you a place to go."

But motivates people to go work out? These students offered

their insights. "I want to lose weight, stay in shape and be healthy," said Rid­

dell. "I come to be healthy ... and to look good for Spring Break!"

revealed Phillips. Opiola said, "It's just a good environment. I like to play bas­

ketball and work out. It's just a fun place to be." In addition to being just a "fun place," the Rec Center provides

a much needed outlet for stress relief. Riddell explained how beneficial the Rec Center has been to

help keep her stress levels low. "I can come here if I'm stressed about a test or something. It helps me to think better and feel better about myself."

Being a relatively new facility, Eastern's Rec Center ranks up there with the best, according to the students.

Sophomore Chris Lueder said, "I like it because people come here to just work out. It's not a fashion show like other gyms I've been to. I like it because I can get all the equipment I need. "

Riddell said, "It compares a lot better to other places I've

Photos by Marl Ogawa

been. This place is a lot nicer and cleaner and most of the equipment is new. I like it better."

While the Rec Center provides students a place to keep in shape, it also provides employment to over 250 students each year. Some students work as spo11s officials, lifeguards, supervi­sors and office workers, in addition to other positions.

Lesley Barker, senior recreational administration major, has worked at the Rec Center since it first opened in 1992. She pointed out some of the changes she has seen. "I've noticed that there have been more palticipants, both students and faculty. The intermural program has also had more palticipants since I first statted working here. "

While all the students interviewed agreed that the Rec Center is a nice place to go, a few offered suggestions to improve the facility.

Opiola said that the weight room could use more free weights. Phillips suggested extending the hours so that students with

night classes could still work out. The most practical suggestion, however, came from Riddell.

THE DUNGEON, LIVE

192

In garages and basements spotted throughout the dilapidated rental property that comprises the heart of Charleston, there are power surges late in the night.

There is a flicker of fluorescent light and a slight shift in a ceiling panel as a 300 watt bass amp pulls the current with vig­orOLIS intent and explodes a deep, thundering reverberation out the other side.

A few seconds later, this low noise is layered by a brief squelch of electric feedback and then six strings of fuzzy melod­ic bliss as the guitarist falls into rhythm and the drummer lifts the tempo with a metallic crash. All that remains is words which will travel through the darkness at the cue of a vocalist and the efforts of his pen.

"Guitar playing is an outlet," said Justin Deverell, guitarist for a local band named Goatboy. "If I didn't do it I'd go crazy. "

Deverell is referring to the intrinsic sensation in which he is overcome while creating music in the company of a band. And not just any music; not cover tunes ripped off from Top 40 bands, but original music.

This notion of original music has really only began to sink its roots into the cultural dirt of Chucktown's collegiate atmosphere in the last year or two.

This newborn phenomenon is most likely a reciprocation of the growing popularity of the already cliched category of 'alter­native music.' However rather unlikely, the Central Illinois alter­native scene has allowed for a wide variety of musical experi­mentation which has given birth to several local and area bands within the last couple of years .

Among these bands are Charleston's Goatboy, Fossil Dogs,

Above: Michelle Drummond and Darrin Scorza of Rain Sister. Right: j ustin Deverell and Marcus Sherman of Goatboy.

Spankwagon and Rain Sister along with a network of area bands including: 16 Tons, LoveCup, IL8, Hot Glue Gun, Moth­er and Moon Seven Times.

Consequently, the nature of success with which these bands have met in Charleston, and the reason they keep coming back for more, rests within the promotional effo rts of a bar called Friends and Company and a man named Jeff Stepp.

Since Stepp came to Friends and the "Dungeon", an exten­sion of the bar set aside for bands to play in in early 1992, the alternative scene has expanded with a vengeance after years of being totally submerged.

The Dungeon has gone from a relatively unheard of black­walled room with a little stage at the end of Spring Semester 1992, to a performance sanctuary for all the area bands men­tioned along with a myriad of bands pulled in from Chicago, St. Louis, both coasts and all over the Midwest.

Bands such as the Blue Meanies, the Jesus Lizard, Big Hat, the Didjits, the Vulgar Boatmen and Poster Children with what has proven to be one of the most open-minded crowds in the area and the general appreciation Stepp and the Dungeon have provided for the livelihood of original bands and the expanding appeal of their music.

And what all the area bands see as the important factor in all the recent success they've shared is not, as Wynton Marsailles once put it: "The ring of the cash register, but the chime of the cymbal."

"We're not in it for the money," said John Roarke, vocalist for the Fossil Dogs. "If we were, we would have quit a long time ago."

In fact, most of the local bands have more money sunk into their instruments and equipment than they could ever hope to remake, but financial gain is unanimously unimportant.

"My motivation for doing this is just to make live, o riginal music," said Darrin Scorza, Rain Sister's drummer.

Goatboy's drummer, Jeremy Anderson, expresses a similar sentiment concerning the way he feels about his own music, as well as all music that is p layed for the shear enjoyment of per­forming something original.

"We like music that says something, that's not just there to make money. You can tell music that comes from people that really like to play," Anderson said.

Marcus Sherman , vocalist for Goatboy, and John Roarke both said a considerable part of their decisions to get involved in bands was due to a previous lack of quality, live music being molded by students on Eastern's campus.

Therefore , by being in bands they felt justified to complain about music that lacks in originality.

"It gives us a bitching right," said Roarke. When all things are said and done, all this talk about original

music and scenes and cash registers really boils down to both musicians and the crowds just wanting to have a good time together.

As Deverell said about the future of Goatboy, "We're not guiding it, we're just following it."

As long as people keep going to the shows, these bands and others which will be formed in the future, will still haul their humble equipment across the frozen prairie in the back seat of rusty jalopies just for chance to play. By MATT GARRISON

GOOD FOOD, lOU RAWL~

Although they won't admit it, ITlO.'X college students miss their parents while they're at school, hundreds of miles f1om home. ~tem helps e-JSe those homesick feelings by planning "P<u·ents Weekend" eve1y yeu·.

One of the .':>pecial events pl<mned dwing parents weekend is the home foot­ball g<m1e at O'Biien Staclium. 'nus yeu·, the Pmthers played d1e No1them Iowa PLIIple Panthers, who I<mked number one in d1e division 1-AA, and won.

In tempeiatures <UDLmd the mid-30s, wid1 freezing I<tin and hail at times, 8,948 p<U-ents <mel students d1ee1-ed on d1e P<md1ers to their 21 -15 win.

joan Gossett, dilroor of d1e Ma1til1 Lud1er King Urliversity Urlion, said 1 00 n101-e tickets we1-e sold for fYJJ-ents weekend d'lis yeu·.

For p<U-ents who clidn't wmt to make reseiVJtions or wait in lines at Ie<>tau­I~mts off-ompus, a special dinner was planned Saturday rlight for ,<,tudents and d1eir p-JJ-ents. Gossett said d1e cUnner was sold out wid1 1525 pc"'ple attendmg, d1e JllO':>t dxn have come the past seven to eight yems, she said.

Eve1y yeu·, a special pe1fom1er is chosen to come to Eastem Pa1-ents' Week­end mel d1i5 ye-JJ· was no exception. Ray Cruuies was lined up to pe1fom1, <mel tickets we1-e expected to be sold out, until Cll<tlies C<Ulcelled on the 30th day of !'lis conllact.

people. They clidn't get what they wanted when they bought the tickets otigi­nally," Gossett said.

l11e University Board ~111.1ggled to fmd another petfotmer for Saturday night and found lDu Rawls. Although m:my students clicln"t know who lDu Rawls was, his petfonnance singing sud1 hits as "Unforgettable," "Wind BeneJd1 My Wings," and "You'll ever Find" gave hin1 a standing ovation from d1e p<u·­ents and ~tudents who attended.

Gossett said d1ey manged d1e seating auangement in umtz Gymnasium to better accommodate d1C>Se who attended. l11e blead1ers in d1e l)'Jck were pushed back, and 1200 more dnirs were put on d1e floor. Parents enjoy sit­ting in d1e d1.:1irs more d1an d1e blead1ers, she said.

"Evetyone who can1e to d1e events d1ought d1ey were vety nice. We received a lot of compliment<; on the conceit <mel dinner," Gossett said.

Ald1ough Canie McGill, a junior psyd1ology major, and her mom did not attend any of d1e planned activities, she said, "I enjoyed showing my mom how school life is. We were leJning more towarcls ftiendship d1em me just coming home. She got to see how I lived and she got to p<uticip<tte."

One problem several ~tudents noticed was how close Parents Weekend was plcumed the weekend after Fall break.

"l11e weekend was pbnned too dose to fall break and too close to l11<Ulksgiving break," said Angie Dawe, freshmm special education major.

McGill said, "Pcu-ent's weekend should be held in the spting. They should not have fall breJk d1en one week later have Pcu-ents Weekend. It's tenible timing."

Gossett said d1e University Board nies to plan d1e weekend dose to the beginning of November. 111ey mLL5t plan it dwing a weekend when met-e will be a home football gcm1e.

"Do you have it dose to l11<1nksgiving breJk or dose to fJl! break? l11e1-e <u-e so many break<;. We cu-e bound to have it dose to some breJk," Gossett said.

Money dutt i5 collected fium p<u-ent5 weekend goes to diffet-ent sources, Gossett said. Notmally, d1e money fium d1e conceit goes into conceit t-esetves. However, d1e bcxu·d didn't nl<Lke enough at me concert to put any money in, she said.

Gossett said money d1e boord receives fiDm the dinner goes back to d1e union, which helps keep ~tudent fees down.

"The money gives students an oppottLmity to have the IJd.l-ents weekend not at d1eir expense,., she said. ~ABBY KRAKOW

RIGHT: Meilla Copoulos and jennifer Shiels hold Ste.ffani Fort down as she has a convulsion in The Effects of Gamma Rays on Man-in-the­Moon Marigolds. Photos courtesy of the Theatre Department

MEMI 0 RS, GAMMA RAYS The lights dim and anticipation flows throughout the building like electricity. It's an exciting time not only for the performers on stage, but also for the audience. Yes, once again, it's showtime at the Quincy V. Dounda Fine Arts Center.

Each year, the Theatre Department of Eastern Illinois University puts on 10 or 11 productions. The department runs two seasons a year.

"The Studio season is made up of experimental and contempo­rary productions," said Ed Guidotti, theater department chair. This year, "The Effects of Gamma Rays on Man-in-the-Moon Marigolds" and Neil Simon's "Brighton Beach Memoirs" were included in the series.

The second season, "The Mainstage productions," according to Guidotti, "include the classics as well as some contemporary come­dies. " The tragedy "Antigone" and "Barefoot in the Park," also by Neil Simon, were included in the Mainstage series for the 1992-93 season.

According to Guidotti, the productions for each season are selected two years in advance. "A faculty committee combines sug­gestions from other faculty members, students, and community members to provide a variety of productions for the upcoming sea­son. "

"The selection process is set up so that a student has the oppor­tunity to perform in every genre during a four year time frame ," Guidotti said.

Auditions for the productions during the regular seasons are open to all students. Guidotti said the auditions are held twice a year.

Most of the people who audition are theatre majors, but accord­ing to Guidotti, there are many speech communication, English an

music majors who get involved in the productions. Deborah Althoff, a senior theatre major, believed that theatre

is a great experience for students, no matter what their major. "If you have the time, do it. " Althoff said. "The department is

always looking for new faces , no matter what your major. " Althoff said that when the department sees any talent, they work with the individual to develop it.

Althoff began her career with the Eastern theatre department early. "I interviewed for a theatre scholarship at Eastern as a Freshman in high school. "

She has not been disappointed with her choice. "It has been the best experience," said Althoff.

According to Althoff, the theatre is a great place to meet peo­ple. "I've met some of my best friends through the theatre ."

"While working on a production, you really get to know the people you're working with," Althoff said. "You become a close ensemble. "

"When you 're onstage some of the funniest things happen that the audience completely misses," Althoff said.

Althoff recalled a performance in which a telephone never rang when it was supposed to. The phone was supposed to ring, and a conversation that was vital to the rest of the act was supposed to occur.

"Unfortunately, the stage manager got involved in another problem backstage and forgot to make the phone ring. " Althoff said the cast members had to improvise without going into hys­terics on stage. "Some of the lines we came up with were really funny. "

Althoff has been in 10 productions since she began at Eastern. During her sophomore year, Althoff played her favorite role as

Meg in the "Bi1thday Party. " Whatever the production, student involvement is a given,

from the cast and crew, to the audience. According to Guidotti, depending on the production, there could be anywhere between 30 and 40 students involved.

Guidotti said students make up the majority of the audience. Students are given the opportunity to see the productions for a reduced rate.

Sherrie Stocchetti , a sophomore elementary education major, decided to purchase a season ticket before the fall semester began.

"I went to all of the plays last year, and knew that I'd be doing it again this year," explained Stocchetti. With the season half over, Stocchetti has not been disappointed with her pur­chase.

Stocchetti said, "I really enjoyed 'Barefoot in the Park' and I'm looking forward to seeing the production of 'the Princess and the Pea. "'

Like many students , Stocchetti's favorite type of productions are musicals. "I enjoy the music and the dancing, but it's neat to hear the performers singing voices, " said Stocchetti.

Unfortunately, due to budget cuts, Stocchetti will have to look elsewhere for musical productions.

According to Ed Guidotti , no musicals will be presented by the theatre department in the next few years. "Musicals cost more than any other type of production and when you are plan­ning a budget, the most expensive items have to be cut. "

No matter what type of production, the theatre department of Eastern Illinois University is guaranteed student support. By KRISTIN HOFFMAN

MUSICIANS, MELODIES

202

A wide variety of sounds has filled Dvorak Concert Hall in the Doudna Fine Arts Center in the fall semester of 1992.

Everything from faculty recitals, marching band contests, stu­dents recitals and various concerts could be heard in the Fine Arts Building.

A fundraising concert ended the 1992 Homecoming weekend with the proceeds going to the recruitme nt of orchestra members and attracting guest soloists.

The fundraising concert contained music by George Fredrick Handel, Claude Debussy, Zoltan Kolday and Johannes Brahams.

After going to the fundraising concert, Jennifer Bryden, senior marketing major said, "I didn't know how much I would like it, but I ended up having a really nice time."

The Eastern Trio, an ensemble of Eastern Faculty members, filled the Charleston air with classical music.

The Eastern Trio consists of Cynthia Baker, Donald Tracy and David Moore. Baker plays the violin, Tracy plays the violincello and Moore plays the pianoforte. The trio entertained the audi­ence with music from Beethoven.

Several jazz combos played during the fall semester, as well. A variety of jazz music was played at the performances, including original pieces written by Eastern students.

Contemporary jazz arrangements included, "What Is This Thing Called Love," "Falling In Love In Love" and "The Girl From Ipeanema."

Original material from Eastern students, such as senior Kevin

Hoferer, was also featured. Eastern students seemed to have enjoyed the jazz shows they

have seen. Sophomore Lance Collins was impressed with the jazz performance.

Collins, who loves to listen to the saxophone, said, "I thought they presented themselves well. It started off slow, but the more they played the more they got into their music. "

Collins' roommate, Justin Perry, said he read about the perfor­mance in the paper and decided to go. "It didn't sound bad at all," he said. "It broadened my experiences. "

Both Collins and Perry said they would recommend the jazz performances to anyone who asked about them.

"It's not something I listen to all of the time ," Collins said. "It makes for a nice change," he concluded.

Student recitals were featured in addition to concerts at Dvo­rak Concert Hall this fall .

Jason T. Morris, baritone, performed toward the end of the fall semester. Accompanied by Diane Heifers, Morris performed pieces by Antonio Vivaldi, Johannes Brahms, Maurice Rauel, R. Vaughan Williams and John Jacob Niles.

Eastern students, Steve Brock and Donya Weidner, agreed that they found Morris enjoyable and thought he had a good range.

"As the performance progressed, the music had a more con­temporary sound, so I enjoyed it more as it went on," Weidner said.

As the holiday season approached, Christmas concerts were

held in the Doudna Fine Arts Center. The Unity Gospel Fellowship Choir sang hymns such as "Go

Tell It On The Mountain," "Silent Night," "Can't Stop Praising His arne" and "Press Toward The Mark." Jazz gospel music was performed by an acapella quartet from

Eastern. Eastern students and Charleston residents alike turned out to

see Handel's "Messiah." With over 120 chorus members and 24 orchestra members,

Eastern presented a powerful performance of the "Messiah. " The chorus and several soloists sang text selected from the Holy Scripture.

The audience was invited to stand as the chorus sang, "Hal­lelujah: for the Lord God omnipotent reigneth, Halleljuah. The kingdom of this world is become the kingdom of our Lord and of his Christ; and he shall reign forever and ever. King of Kings and Lord of Lords."

Senior Sherry Phillips said she enjoyed the performance so much she would consider seeing it again.

Audience members Erika Darling, Stacy Olgsdon and Carrie Stringer praised the annual concert.

"It helped put me in the Christmas spirit," said Erika Darling. Stacy Olgsdon said, "It was a touching experience." "Moving," said Carrie Stringer. "What else can I say except it

was a great performance," Stringer concluded. By Chris Wehde.

AIDS, KNOWLEDGE

Although people on campus have heard of BACCHUS, (Boosting Alcohol Consciousness Conceming the Health of University Students) many have misconceptions as to what the organization stands for.

People look su1prised if BACCHUS members are seen in the Charleston bars, and others will hold up glasses of beer offeling them a dJink or two.

Che1yl Boyce, BACCHUS president, said, "C111ey think) we're anti-alcohol, and we look down upon people who dtink."

However, Boyce said the pU!pose of BACCHUS is "to promote responsi­ble decision making concerning the use and non-use of alcohol."

"(If we keep) getting our name out, people will keep healing our name and will be interested enough to fmd out what BACCHUS is," she said.

BACCHUS organizes and patticipates in many events year round to spread their message to students throughout campus.

Last fall, BACCHUS showed students that dtinking in·esponsibly can be "deadly'' when Eastern held Alcohol Awareness Week in October. BAC­CHUS members set up two graveyat·cls on the Library quad and South quad. A student's natne was wlitten on each tombstone to show that anyone can be killed from alcohol related accidents.

BACCHUS members wished students and faculty a safe winter break with their Safe Holiday Catnpaign. People on campus came to the Martin Luther King Jr. University Union to buy a red libbon for 50 cents to tie on the Cruistmas tree.

Each day, a campus celeb1ity, such as President Davidjorns, Lou Henck­en, vice president of student affairs, Patlick Bradley, Rick San1ules, head coad1 of the men's basketball tean1, Lynette Drake, Kevin Cannon, and Bob Spoo, football teatn's head coach, would tie a 1ibbon on the tree

Then, those who bought Jibbons would sign a eat·d promising to dJink

responsibly and stay safe over break. The cards were mailed to their home address over winter break to remind them of their promise.

A video extravaganza held in TI1omas and Taylor halls continued the holiday campaign festivities. BACCHUS members also sponsored a "Mistle­toe Magic" dance in the Cannan Hall dining se1vice to end the week's holi­day campaign.

Teny Tumbarello, BACCHUS adviser, said these special weeks on cam­pus serve two pwposes. "First, to b1ing about awareness on campus of whatever particular issue through educational programming," he said. "Sec­ond, to let students know there are alternatives (to going to the bars.)"

Last Februa.JY, BACCHUS along with several other campus organizations participated in AIDS Awareness Week. BACCHUS and RHA co-sponsored AIDS Jeopardy where students answered questions from several cate­gories, such as medical, transmission, and famous people.

Throughout the spring semester, BACCHUS also organized and spon­sored programs for Drug Awareness Week, Alcohol Awareness Month, and Safe Spring Break Week.

Working at these special events, Boyce said BACCHUS is "nying to expand ourselves on different issues. AIDS and chugs are issues that have to be dealt with."

Twnba.rello explained that BACCHUS on a national level is recognizing other critical issues not dealing only with alcohol awareness, although it is still one of the organization's concerns.

Rob Brooks, executive vice president of programming, said the aware­ness weeks do what they are supposed to do.

"They make people more aware of things going on such as the tragedies of alcohol and AIDS," he said.

OPPOSITE: A breathelizer test being performed. LEFT: A sobriety test being demonstrat­ed Photos by: Kevin Kilhof-fer

Brooks worked on the planning committee for AIDS Awareness Week and Drug Awareness Week, co-chaired the video extravaganza, and helped set up the graveyards for Alcohol Awareness Week.

He said he thought that the message has been effectively pushed to stu­dents who want to leam more.

"The others have seen (what we've done) but have not taken it as seri­ously as the others," Brooks said.

Regina Carpenter, BACCHUS member, said the special events "focus on what the week is about and to educate everyone about the particular sub­ject." She said she helped organize events for the Safe Holiday Campaign and AIDS Awareness Week.

Another one of BACCHUS's focuses is to recruit more members. Tum­barello said reauinnent has been the highest this year than the past two to three years, but "we can never have too many members."

He explained more people will join not because they have to do it but because they want to do it, and they're interested in the group's purpose.

Carpenter said she joined BACCHUS ''because I believe what it stands for and what we do for the campus."

Boyce said BACCHUS will ny to ina-ease the nwnber of members by going to hall councils and talk about what it is. Also, she said by organiz­ing fun things such as barbecues and retreats, she hopes more people will join.

"(We'll) go get our name out so they know we're out there," she said. Eve1y year from 1989 to 1991, BACCHUS has been noticed as the best

chapter in the nation, Tumbarello said. Although Eastem's chapter was not chosen in 1992, "we made great strides. (We are) among the best if not the best," he said. By ABBY KRAKOW

More than 1 ,000 students took advantage of the Spring Career Day / Job Fair on February 3. The Job Fair, sponsored by the Career Planning and Place­ment Center, is always a big attraction to Eastern.

"I real ly l ike them (the job fairs) ," said Patrick Teig , an Eastern junior.

"They have been very helpful to me in my job search."

"The job fair is a great place to pass out my resume and get an idea of the various companies hiring people ," said Sherry Phillips , a senior at Eastern.

Many students feel the same way Teig and Phillips do. And , according to the Placement Cen­ter , job fairs are a source of recruitment which are rapid ly growing in popularity.

Although the job fairs offer many advantages for

students, one obvious disadvantage is the compe­tition.

"It's hard to keep my confidence w h en there are so many other students a lso passing out their resumes ," sa id Eastern senior Nancy Nesbitt.

"It's difficult for me to l eave a l asting impres­sion on a potential emp loyer when so many oth­ers (students) are trying to do the same thing ," stated Brian Roe , a senior marketing major.

All things considered , the spring job fair offered many more advantages than it did disad­vantages.

"I ' m definitely g l ad I came here to give it a try," sa id accounting major Lance Co llin s.

"This is my first job fair and so far I ' m pleased with it. "

In fact , many students seemed pleased with the

over 100 companies who were waiting to accept resumes from them. Just a few of the companies present on February 3 were Country Compan ies, Six Flags Great America, and Illinois Power.

"I ' ve been wanting to give Country Companies my resume for a long time, " said Teig .

"That would be a great opportunity for me. Hopefully , I will be interviewing with them soon. "

According to the Placement Center , a st ud ent who participated in on-campus interviewing, attends job fairs , and a lso takes part in other job search activities wi ll have a greater number of career opportunities .

In addition to the Spring Career Day/Job Fair , the Placement Center a lso sponsors a job fair each fall. By JENNIFER BRYDEN

Speeches from Eastern's new president, David ]oms, and the vice president for student affairs kicked off this year's celebra­tion of Cultural Diversity Week.

PEACE, UNDERSTANDING A mix of American Indian culture and International aware­

ness was just one of many themes for Cultural Diversity week. American Indian singer and storyteller Jack Gladstone, a

Montana Blackfoot Indian, was just one of the featured per­formers for the week.

208

Gladstone has been described as having a unique style in which he uses song and storytelling to paint vivid images of the triumphs and tragedies of the Blackfoot and other American Indian tribes.

"We must reinvent ourselves and our values to survive, " Gladstone said. "There is a blueprint for survival within Native America. Finding it is both the challenge and the reward. "

Gladstone touched the hearts of all his audiences with his conversational narrative and thought-provoking songs about American Indian culture and history.

In addition to an education on American Indian culture, International Student Awareness Day was also featured during Cultural Diversity Week.

This day included a fair-like atmosphere in which different countries displayed their art, history and other significant arti­facts.

Vice President Lou Hencken expressed his thoughts on Cul­tural Diversity Week. "Through teaching cultural diversity, the Eastern Illinois Univers ity community wants the entire student body to be able to work together, to relate together and to live together.

"Today at Eastern, we attract the brightest students from the high schools. If Eastern brought you here as students and gave you an education, but didn't teach you to respect each other's differences and help you learn to look at other people's back­grounds, then the future of our society would be in trouble," Hencken concluded.

Along those same lines, various organizations brought speak-

ers on campus to help students better understand other cul­tures.

Speakers included representatives from the Black Student Union, Hispanic Student Union, International Student Associa­tion , University Board and Student Government.

Events such as window painting at the Martin Luther King University Union, an ethnic food contest and fashion show, and a one-man play entitled "Rated Malcolm X" highlighted the week's activities.

Black Student Union President Aaron Bell explained the importance of Cultural Diversity Week, "Many people think that prejudice or racial issues are about ignorance, and I think the cure for that ignorance is cultural diversity. "

Bell added, "Unless you know or see other people for who they are and for what they are through their culture and tradi­tions, you can't understand their way of life. Without under­standing those differences, I think people wi ll still be ignorant. " By COLLEEN WANGLER

For the typical Eastern student, sharing the American culture with an international student is not usually part of the everyday college routine. Yet, somewhere down the road we all realize what a small world it really is.

International students come to Eastern to learn the American way of life and earn degrees in a variety of areas.

It is up to the American population at Eastern to give these stu­dents the opportunity to exchange our culture so that we can all establish peace among one another.

More than 125 people gathered February 6 in Lantz Gym for the annual International Dinner. Students from various cultures came together to share their heritage with each other and the communi­ty.

The menu consisted of dishes from the countries from which the students represented.

Liu Zhongping, sophomore business major from Canton, China said, "The dinner is a great way to exchange our different cultures."

The dinner was followed by a multicultural program of enter­tainment.

Japanese students wearing the traditional clothing danced and sang "Cherry Blossoms" to symbolize their country's tree, the Cherry Blossom.

The Leu Family performed the Red Silk Dance to demonstrate how they celebrate the Chinese ew Year.

Yusaf Anwar, of Bangladesh recited poetry from his country, explaining his country's legend.

To end the program, Dr. Doug Bock of Rotaract presented slides from all over the world.

Dr. Anthony Oseguera, professor of mass communication, said that the reason for acknowledging the international student pro­gram is to help spread peace throughout campus.

"Multiculturism is the presence of four winds, and the four cor­ners of earth can began right here on this campus," said Oseguera.

Sanhita Sen, a graduate student in environmental biology, said, "Being involved with this organization has enabled me to meet people outside of my own culture and help me share my experi­ences as a native of Calcutta, India."

"What we have here at Eastern is a microcosm of the U.N. I feel that multiculturism is on its way to expansion because Presi­dent ]oms has showed an interest in increasing the population of international students on campus," said Oseguera.

The main goal of the organization has been to establish good­will and peace among the American and international students.

"We can all contribute to a better world by being a friend to the international students," said Oseguera.

Oseguera challenged all Eastern students to get involved with the international program.

A HISTORY, A CELEBRATION Dances, plays and musicals were just a few of the many activities that highlighted this year's celebration of Black History Month.

Organizations campus-wide gave a joint effort in driving home the meaning of Black History Month and why it should be celebrated.

Lectures and programs such as "Black Homophobia and Sexuality," sponsored by the Minority Affairs Office and "Being Black in America ," sponsored by Taylor Hall Coun­cil presented a unique look at the history of the African­American.

Other events during the month included an essay con­test and play.

All Get Along," sponsored by Student Publications, gave students of all races the opportunity to express their feel­ings on race relations.

A newe r twist in Black History Month at Eastern has been the addition of playwrights Terrence Trimuel and Gerald Mock.

For the second consecutive year, a play outlining the struggle of black America has been performed for Black History Month. This year's play was entitled "Learnin' The Hard Way."

A new attraction for Black History Month this year was a concert by the University of Illinois Black Chorus. The choir gave a powerful performance of old-time, black spir­ituals.

Other musical attractions during the month included a Black History Music Concert by the University Baptist Choir, Black Music Social by Taylor Hall Council and Black Student Union dance.

Black History art displays posted campus-wide provided additional information and insight into the culture and achievements of the African-American.

As it is every year, the Miss Black EIU Pageant was the main attraction at Eastern's celebration of Black History Month.

The pageant, sponsored by the Black Student Union, drew hundreds of on-lookers of all races. During the pageant, contestants express their :\frican heritage through various competitions. By ELLIO'IT PEPPERS

impressed by ]oms warm style and promise to include the entire campus in the decision making process.

"He is open and honest and will get us back on track," she said.

The reception helped ease ]oms' transition into office Nov. 9, about a month-and-a­half earlier than originally announced.

"The people here couldn't be nicer," he said of his arrival in town. "I think I am really going to enjoy living here."

Part of his first week was spent getting to know the campus and the people. He cultivated an easygoing, affa­ble manner from the start by walking the halls of campus buildings and shaking hands.

]oms sat down to talk to The Daily Eastern News during his first week on the job. His new role and his plans for the future were high on his agen­da.

When the Board of Gover­nor's announced David ]oms would be Eastern's new presi­dent, he got a four-minute standing ovation.

Perhaps among all the cheering and clapping of fac­ulty on that Sept. 24 after­noon, students and adminis­trators could hear a few sighs of relief that the tough times were finally over.

For two years the campus had been sagging under the weight of a president embroiled in a bitter contro­versy, which culminated in the Faculty Senate taking a no­confidence vote in then-Presi­dent Stan Rives.

Rives retired, saying it was a "personal decision" that had nothing to do with the contro­versy, but the anger that had split the faculty and adminis­tration remained.

The campus needed a cheerleader for change, and they had found it in ]oms .

"To put it in a sports metaphor, I think David hit a home run this morning, " said BOG Chancellor Thomas

216

Layzell , announcing the appointment. "I think he has hit a home run every time I've talked to him. "

]oms' message of renewal, his message that Eastern was not in trouble but in transition, seemed to strike a chord with most people.

"I think this school is in a very strong position that you could do about anything you wanted to right now," ]oms said, at his first campus visit Sept. 8 during the presidential search process. "You could be any type of school you want­ed to be.

"You could be more selec­tive, you could take more stu­dents in, you could say what­ever you wanted to. The ques­tion is what do you want the university to do?"

]oms came to Eastern from Northern Kentucky University, Highland Heights , Ky. , where he was vice president for aca­demic affairs and provost. Though ]oms' spent most of his career university adminis­tration, his background is in arts and humanities.

]oms received his doctorate in theater history and criticism from the University of Califor­nia at Los Angeles in 1973. He also served as a lieutenaht in the U.S. Navy from 1967 to "I think there are a number

of ways you can look at (the

1970. At a party Sept. 24 celebrat­

ing ]oms hiring as Eastern's seventh president, faculty and administrators alike expressed their excitement.

]oms said he was going to put an emphasis on the future by generating a strategic plan, a several volume outline of where the university wants to go. Faculty and students will both have a chance to give

input during the planning pro­cess. "

"By that means - advise and consent- we'll come up with a basic university plan," he said. "The basic planning for the university will take years. "

When ]oms addressed plan­ning, he said will intend it to be as a long, hard look at the

university to its find its faults. ]oms said Eastern needs a break with the past in order to have a strong future .

"I'd like to see Eastern as one of the finest institutions of its kind in the country, and I think that is entirely possible," he said. "I really don't know what changes will have to be

made. No individual alone should presume to make those changes. "

What the future holds for Eastern under Jorns is any­body's guess. Even Jorns him­self knows the excitement that greeted his arrival will not last forever.

"I was very grateful , of

course, to be wanted," he said. "I think anybody would be. It's also a little disconcert­ing because nobody can live up to everyone's expectations, but I'll attempt to do my best." By DAVID M. PUTNEY

1992 FINALLY THE YEAR FOR W"OMEN IN POLITICS?

It's in the air. The times' are a changing. There was a time when,

women stood behind their men in the arena of politics; campaigning, raising money and working social functions.

The campaign trails are hot for positions in the House of Representatives by Eddie Bernice Johnson of Texas, Eva Clayton of North Carolina and Cynthia McKin­ney of Georgia.

'1 am delighted with some of the women that our (Republican) Senate candidates are going to be taking on because they will be easier to beat." President George Bush

In 1992, the women of today are moving around their men and moving to the front of the lines to cast their vote and support.

However in 1992, it's not tur their fellow male candi­dates but for their sister counterparts.

Take for instance, Carol Moseley Braun, the Illinois Democratic Senate nominee who was shunned from the press last spring and looked at as an underdog by beating incumbent Senator Alan Dixon.

Braun is a part of first gen­eration of women who has made history by becoming the first black woman to be nominated to the U.S. Sen­ate.

If victory is on her side, she will also be the first Black woman in the U.S. Senate as well as the fourth African-American to serve in the senate.

With opening of the door of the world of politics, other women are spearheading campaigns of their own at national and statewide offices, all across the United States, like Democratic candi­dates Lynn Yeakel in Penn­sylvania, Barbara Boxer and Dianne Feinstein in Califor­nia.

220

Leah ].Sears-Collins, was recently elected to the Geor­gia Supreme Court making her the first woman, second African-American and youngest justice in the histo­ry of the state's highest court.

On the home side of Illi­nois, woman candidates are making a presence such as Former Eastern graduate Carol Brown Hodge, who is running as a candidate for state representative from the 106th District and is a resi­dent of Paris, Ill.

At the University of Illi­nois-Champaign, Ada Lopez is the first female Hispanic candidate to run for the Uni­versity of Illinois Board of Trustees position.

Self magazine reported that "18 women including 16 Democrats, were mnning for the Senate; and for the House, 89 Democrats 53 Republicans and two Inde­pendents. The female tally for governorships : two Democrats, two Republicans and one Independent."

Even Hollywood has taken a part in addressing the issue of women's liberation and political awareness.

The television sitcom, "Murphy Brown" has jumped on the political scene when the character Murphy Brown

chose to become a single mother and was criticized by Vice-President Dan Quayle for "glamorizing her decision to have a baby alone, he charged was symptomatic of Hollywood scorn for tradi­tional family values," Time magazine reported.

The television program gave a rebuttal to Quayle's remarks in the season's opener.

Time magazine also reported that the "character addressed on the TV show to answer Quayle's charges; 'Perhaps it's time for the

vice-president to expand his definition and recognize that whether by choice or cir­cumstance families come in all shapes and sizes. And ultimately, what really defines a family is commit­ment, caring and love. "'

The age of women's liber­ation and feminism has begun to work the wheels of change in the 90's. Women in the political arena and in the world of Hollywood have set the wheels in motion for others to follow. By KAREN MEDINA

EASTERN STUDENT GETS INVOLVED WITH

HISTORY MAKING POLITICAL CAMPAIGN Firsts in the world of poli­

tics usually make sound impacts as well as history.

Case in point: Carol Mose­ley Braun, Cook County recorder of deeds, who made history this election year by becoming the first black women to win the nomina­tion to the U.S. Senate.

For Jay Martinez, a senior political science major, who is of Mexican heritage, Braun's bid a lso brings the a first in the face of tradition for Latino students on East­ern's campus.

Martinez is the first Latino from Eastern to become the Coles County Coordinator for a U.S. Senate campaign. He said he became the local coordinator for the Braun campaign after he sent his resume to the Braun's Chica­go office.

"There were six other can­didates and I was really glad, I was chosen ," Martinez said.

The position involves duties such as recruiting vol-

unteers for phone banking, sign distribution and door-to­door campaigning.

"It all starts with your vol­unteers. You 're only as strong as your volunteers," he added. "It 's all a grass roots campaign."

Other than just volunteer recruiting, Martinez has a lso started talking to different civic organizations such as senior centers, booster clubs and labor unions.

Besides being coordinator for the Braun campaign, he also serves as a deputy regis­trar for the Coles County area.

Martinez said that he can relate to the Braun campaign because he can personally relate to it, hailing from the working class.

"She is a model for my life , because she has come out from the same background, I have. " Martinez said.

"Another reason that drew me to the campaign was the fact that Braun is represent-

ing a group of women that have never been represented at this level.

"I believe in everything that Carol Moseley Braun stands for. Women aren 't represented fair­ly , so I think that the Braun campaign will give a chance for women to be better represent­eel in the politi­cal arena. "

A term last semester as the head of two eth­nic campus organizatio ns helped prepare Martinez for his current duties on the sen­ate campaign.

"I learned a lot of organi­zational skills with both orga­nizations and communication skill along with getting things clone productively. I think that both groups were equal­ly important," he said.

As the second HSU presi­dent, Martinez set a goal of increasing the groups' num­bers and making the group a recognized student organiza­tion on Eastern's campus.

At the end of the semester, his goal was accomplished with 30-plus active student members and the first-ever showing for Hispanics stu­dents in the homecoming parade and activities.

"I think the highest point of the group was the actual homecoming parade, because we're the strongest at that point, and people were excited about it. "

Martinez a lso guided com­munity service activities such as food drives for the Charleston community and participation with the first Cu ltural Diversity week sponsored by the University's Human Potential Board .

He helped design the first Hispanic Heritage Day pro­moting Latino culture with featured world poets and producers Luis Rodriguez and Gregorio Gomez from the Near North Side Art Council and the Latino Chicago Theather.

"I think that some of East­ern 's campus has benefited from the HSU activities, how­ever, he added, "The stu­dents who wanted to learn were always welcomed and some took advantage of it and others didn't. "

As president for the Model Illinois Government, Mar­tinez participated in actual simu lations in Springfield and debated bills in competi­tion with other students from other schools.

"My goal for the campaign is to raise the Democratic percentages in Coles County and to get more people to vote for Carol Moseley Braun," Martinez said.

"The only advice I have to minority students is to never say never and always shoot for the top. Don't ever let anyone ever tell you that you can't reach the top." By KAREN MEDINA

AIDS HITS THE

LIMELIGHT IN

THE 1990's This year the world became

more concerned with AIDS. The disease is growing in notoriety as it takes the lives of some of the great artists and celebrities of our time.

Acquired Immune Deficien­cy Syndrome, a virus that attacks the body's immune system, first gained real atten­tion in 1985 when it took the life of legendary screen actor Rock Hudson.

Fueled by ignorance, rumors and tales of how a person could get the deadly disease spread like wild fire. People were scared to touch, to hug or even to look at someone with AIDS for fear of contracting it.

In the 80's fear turned into hate and kept children like Ryan White out of school. AIDS became labeled as a gay disease while the rate of infection in heterosexuals sur­passed those within the gay community.

This year tennis great Arthur Ashe, ballet legend Rudolf Nureyev, "Brady Bunch" dad Robert Reed and Psycho's Norman Bates­Anthony Perkins, all joined the list of people to die from AIDS.

Eastern got involved with AIDS Awareness Week, run­ning the first week of Febru­ary 1993, educating students around campus. Different events marked the week including speakers, programs and a bulletin board contest. AIDS awareness pamphlets and education material in addition to red ribbons (the symbol of the fight against AIDS) were distributed on campus.

"We have stocked the infor-

222

mation table with almost 40 different pamphlets and brochures dealing with topics ranging from sex to testing to condoms," said Lynette Drake, director of the office of Orientation/ AIDS, Alcohol and Drug Abuse. "I have received nothing but positive comments about the aware­ness week and its impact on the students and on the cam­pus itself."

In the entertainment busi­ness, those red ribbons were worn by every star at every awards ceremony, celebration and other gala events to show their commitment and sup­port in the fight against the virus.

In 1991, after actor Brad Davis died from AIDS, his widow released a statement about how Hollywood treats people with AIDS or who are HIV positive.

"I make my living in an industry that professes to care very much about the fight against AIDS-that gives umpteen benefits and charity affairs ... but, in actual fact, if an actor is even rumored to have HIV, he gets no support on an individual basis-he does not work."

After his appearance on the courts at the Olympics in Barcelona, HIV positive, Magic Johnson announced that he would come out of retirement and go back onto the courts. But after an exhi­bition game where Johnson hit the court and cut himself, Johnson again decided to retire saying he could see "the fear in other players eyes" as they all wondered if they could now be exposed to the virus.

UNTESTED SILICONE IMPLANTS RESULT IN

HEALTH PROBLEMS AND RAISE QUESTIONS

OF FDA TESTING FOR MANY 'WOMEN The year started o ut

with a scare for more than two million women that have had breast implant surgery when the commissioner of the Food and Drug Adminis­tration issued a voluntary ban on silicone breast implants.

The commissioner, David Kessler, issued the ban after an FDA panel received complaints on the sil icone implants in November 1991. Some of the various ai lme nts were arthriti s, fatigue, swollen g lands, joint pain and hardening of the skin. Cancer was also believed to be linked to one form of the silicone implants, but that form was only used in 10 percent of the two million implants.

The voluntary ban cov-

e rs two of the three types of implants, silicone-gel and silicone-saline. These two implants make up over 80 percent of the over two million used. These are considered dangerous because near­ly 15 percent lead to cap­su lar contraction. Capsu­lar contraction is a condi­tion in which the breast hardens and becomes painful. The other disad­vantage to the implants is the chance of leaking sil­icone into the body. Leaking can result in enlarged glands, arth riti s and diseases of the itnmune system.

The advantage of these implants, which most women feel o utweigh the many disadvantages , is the silicone implants feel and look like real

breasts. "They feel like a non­

implant pair of breasts," one woman said.

The third implant, saline, was not included in the ban . If leaking occurs with the saline implant, it is safely absorbed into the blood stream. The disadvantage of the sa line is that 1 to 10 percent may deflate. This isn't a health risk but can become an expensive annoyance. The cost of replacement is upwards of $2,000.

Breast implants have been used since the early 1960's. The FDA began regulating such devices in 1976 so neither the si l­icone nor the saline implant has ever received an official FDA approval. FDA studies of the dan­gers of implants never really began until 1991.

Of the two million breast implants per-

formed in the United States, 80 percent were done simply to enhance the figure. Many recipi­ents of breast implants decide on the procedure themselves to help increase self-confidence.

Not since Hurricane Hugo's destruc­tion of parts of the North­east region of the U.S. in 1989 had we seen such a disaster. Hugo was responsi­ble for 51 deaths and $5 hil­lion in damage.

The correct request took 48 hours and hy the time relief arrived thousands of Florida resi­dents were up in arms at the slow pace of the FEMA. The FEMA was able to effectively handle the long term prohlems such as the many repairs that were needed and hy issuing mil­l ions of dollars in relief checks.

Because of the poor rat­ing the FEMA received after the Andrew hurricane, they responded much faster for the next U.S. disaster; Hurri­cane Iniki.

Hurricane Iniki struck the Hawaiian island of Kauai nearly three weeks to the clay after the Florida disas­ter. Iniki damaged nearly a third of all homes on the island. It was also estimated

that 30 percent of all build­ings on the island were damaged. The damage esti­mate was over a hillion dol­lars.

Many of Kauai 's sugar­cane fields were flattened hy the storm and the Macadamia nut crop, which had already heen doing poorly , was destroyed.

Because of the lessons learned after Andrew, the relief efforts were called out immediately. Meals, tents, generators, cots and hun­dreds of soldiers were sent to the island at dayhreak, days quicker than the Andrew relief effort.

LOS ANGELES EXPLODES:

VIOLENCE FOLLOWS RODNEY KING TRIAL For months during the

spring of 1992, every news­paper, magazine and talk show displayed scenes from an amateur videotape of black motorist Rodney King lying on the ground being beaten by several Los Ange­les police officers with night­sticks. The country was out­raged by the scenes shown in the amateur video clip. For some, the ideal of po lice officers serving and protect­ing the community vanished. In the past, some members of our society would have found it very hard to believe, that people were actually beaten by police officers. The next idea that crossed the public's mind was that those po lice officers would not get away with such a violent act.

A few mo nths passed after the videotape was released. People were glued in front of their television sets once again, the po lice o fficers in­volved in the beating of Rod­ney King were being brought to trial. Many people were ho lding on to that dream of justice in America.

The juro rs were white, the judge was white, the prose­cuting attorney was black and the town ( the trial was conducted in) was primarily white. Despite those facts, the natio n put aside the color factor and watched the trial with hopeful eyes.

Finally, after two months of waiting the verdict was handed down, four of the of­ficers were acquitted of all assault charges while one was waiting to be retried. The med ia was unprepared to cover the Los Angeles riots after the verd ict in the Rod-

ney King beating trial. They were slow to realize that the riots were a bigger story than the verdict.

America was appalled at the outcome. The anger and frustration of the verdict did not stay behind closed doors, instead it was taken to the streets. During the last week of April , for six days, Los An­geles was in upheaval. H ordes of angry people tore into the streets. Citizens des­troyed local businesses, rob­bing, looting and burning.

As rioting escalated in the Los Angeles area, people were rioting in small suburbs o f other states, for instance, Georgia , Texas, Illino is and New York. People were beat­ing up one another, particu­larly, blacks versus whites.

One incident, also cap­tured on v ideo tape by a re­porter in a helicopter, was the beating of Reginald D enny by a mob o f black men. The men involved in that incident were tried and convicted.

During the first three clays o f rio ting 52 people died, 2,383 people were injured and over 18,500 were arrest­eel. This was one of the na­tion 's bloodiest rio ts since the Civil War.

Early reports list damages at at least $785 million dol­lars. More than 5,500 fires bro ke out, over 25,000 peo­ple lost their jobs and 10,000 businesses were destroyed. Most of the damage was p aid for by commercial insurers that covered many of the businesses in South Central Los Angeles.

During the riots, the Los Angeles Times ' building was attacked by a mob of 200

vandals. The mob smashed 100 doors and windows, causing more than $500,000 in damage and stolen equip­ment. D espite the rio ting, 95 percent of the Times papers were delivered.

After the Los Angeles rio ts, many corporate leaders seemed optimistic in correct­ing the situation. They spoke of steps that could be taken to help the situation.

Some o f those steps were to support education refo rm, include minimum competen­cy requirements and expand school choice, provide high school apprenticeship pro­grams and encourage people in the armed services to seek careers in education , boost urban employment by creat­ing enterprise zones, expand public works spending, and provide tax incentives to companies hiring and edu­cating people from the underclass.

The leaders also men­tioned fostering more black entrepreneurships by chan­neling venture capital to inner-city entrepreneurs, linking welfare to work and stop penalizing the working poor, focusing on young children by spending more money on programs like H ead Start and combatting crime through community policing.

The riots represented America 's slow progression in correcting the problems in inner city urban communi­ties. Some An1ericans felt that the most essential element in preventing future r iots is to create jobs in the inner c ity ghettos.

The Bush administration 's primary suggestion for deal-

ing with the problems in the inner cities was enterprise zones. They believed a solu­tion to the problem is to get aid from local companies.

Local government leaders said that the riots did no t oc­cur because of the Rodney King verdict, but because of the people's cry for reinvest­ment in their decaying cities.

Many citizens felt that the riots gave urgency to local government's long-standing pleas fo r help, but the gov­ernment didn't guarantee to give back the federal aiel it took away the past decade.

Many D emocrats pushed for billions of dollars saying that cities can't survive. Som Republicans disagreed, they believe that putting money i the cities is not going to solve the problem.

Local o fficials pushed many federal-aid proposals which included, enacting bills that funnel money and jobs into programs aimed at improving public safety, socia l services, education , housing and transportation.

Local officials also create enterprise zones that g ive t< breaks and other incentives to f irms located in poor areas. Funding was the maji problem in t1ying to make these ideas work.

After the outcries of the American people President Bush ordered a Justice De­partment investigation into possible v iolations of Rodn King's civ il rights in hope o some justice being served. Most of America will still fe a deep disappo intment in i court system. By NICHOLJ A. MCGUIRE

Accepting something new and unknown is hard for some people, and that can be said about some students at Eastern in regard to the newly recog­nized organization, Lesbian, Gay, Bisexual and Allies Union.

However, the members of the union believe those people can also understand about homo­sexuality through education, which is one of the major pur­poses of the union.

In response to criticism of the sidewalk chalkings, England said it was because of the National Comingout day, mostly people who are not Eastern stu­dents but Charleston residents participated in the chalking.

Sanders, interpreting such students behavior through his research said, "Some of the people who are most critical about the gay rights turn out to be people that have some homosexual tendency them­selves. They are afraid to be like (homosexuals/ bisexuals).

The union's first open meet­ing since its approval was on Nov. 23. Members planned to have as many open discussion and speech in classes as possi­ble.

Kohl said, "As long as (the members of the union) follow the community and the univer-

GAYS, LESBIANS, BISEXUALS, AND ALLIES

UNION GAIN RECOGNITION AMID CONTROVERSY England said there was time

when she had to hide being homosexual from everyone she knows, even her mother. She was nine years old when she first asked her mother about homosexuality. The response was: "It (homosexuality) is dirty, it's sick, they just should be killed. " England said she was afraid of people finding out about her "terrible secret. " She said she even tried to change her sexuality.

England said when she saw the first march on television in the early 80's, she began accepting her sexuality.

"I saw nice looking ladies saying, Tm a lawyer, I'm a les­bian and I'm okay. I'm a teach­er, I'm a lesbian, and I'm OK. "' England said she started to real­ized that she could be who she was, and be okay, which meant she did not have to be a stereo­type.

Another main purpose of having the union is to provide homosexual and bisexuals a sense of belonging, England said.

Bud Sanders, director of the Counseling Center said, "It is important to have a place and be with other people where they can be themselves. "

Sarah Patience, a member of the union, added another

union was established at East­ern," Sanders said.

The union was recognized as an official student organization by a 21-3 vote on Oct. 22 at Eastern's Student Senate meet­ing. Before and after the union's recognition, there were many arguments between peo­ple who were for and against the union.

Senate members representing students against the union were outnumbered by fellow senate members.

One senator who opposed the union was Matt Greider. "I felt some of responsibilities to the constituents of being elect­ed by off-campus students, and 85 percent of reaction I got to the issue was that people want­ed me to vote no," Greider said. "And the second reason was that the union goes against my religious beliefs ."

Another senator John Kohl, who voted against the union, said that sidewalk chalking which some of the members were allegedly involved with was against the student conduct code. "If the organization is not going to represent themselves in a positive manner before the recognition, I have a reserva­tion about giving a recogni­tion. "

Kohl said that the union

(homosexuality) is not really something to be interfered with," Greider said.

Many members have received more harassment than ever since the union was estab­lished. "I got a ridiculous com­ment by the phone about two o'clock in the morning," said Patience. "Many of the mem­bers try to avoid walking alone at night. "

"I've had many experiences that people yell at me, saying ' Die Faggot', and throwing

sity's rules, I have no problem with them."

Asking questions and gettin to know the union members through on open forum is one way of overcoming some degree of prejudice, said Sanders.

"It's like we need to get to know you and your culture. The more we learn about it, th more comfortable we get, because we are all different, " said Sanders. By MARl OGA W:

Not only was 1992 the year of women in politics, but it was the year of the Olympians.

This year the world teams converged in Albertville, France in the winter and Barcelona, Spain in the sum­mer.

The opening ceremony of the Olympics was the open­ing of the history books.

Before the games started, the world was talking about how the politically torn for­mer Soviet Union would come together as the Unified Team.

The athletes flew the flag of the Olympics and embod­ied the games ideal that this is not an arena for a coun­try's politics to shine but for its athletes.

Full of great moments by all teams, highlights of the winter Olympics included the United States ' Bonnie Blair taking home her third gold medal in speed skating in as many games.

As the games traveled south through Europe and moved to Barcelona, the attention of the world was once again captured. Heart­break as well as joy predom-

ETHNIC CLEANSING DESTROYS YUGOSLAVIA

At the begining of the sum­mer reports of atrocities of war came out of the former Yugoslavia.

The country had been embattled in an ethnic civil war since the spring which put Serbian against Croats and Bosnians. Serbians then began a rampage of ethnic cleansing.

According to a Newsweek report from August 17, 1992, A group of Serbians sprayed insecticide on loaves of bread and then fed them to a group of Bosnian boys who became violently ilL

The report continued by discribing how a witness saw three Croatian girls chained to a fence and left for three days to be raped, and "for all to use". Afterwords, the girls were doused with gasoline and set on fire.

In all, over a million Bosni­an Muslims and Croats were driven from their homes, being tortured and killed by the Serbians.

During the Yogoslavian civil war, Newsweek reported the Serbians resisted an interna­tional blockade, and turned a deaf ear to a U.N. order to stop flying warplanes over Bosnian territory.

Where to stop in dealing with Serbia became a major debate within the U.N. Securi­ty CounciL France wanted to limit enforcement of the No­Fly Zone over Bosnia by strik­ing only specific Serbian viola­tors. But the U.S. wanted to take out Serbian support facili­ties including air bases and communications. Britain wanted a 30-day waiting peri­od to reinforce their troops with supplies. That waiting period would have been longer than what the Bush Administration had left. It would then be left to the new Clinton Administration to negotiate with the U.N. on how to handle the Serbians.

As reported in the January 4, 1993 Newsweek, a Bush advisor said that the waiting period would "leave it to (Bill) Clinton to blow the first Ser­bian helicopter out of the sky, and that would be terribly unfair."

But even after the inagura­tion of the new president, the crisis in the former Yogosla­vian country was still left unre­solved, the U.N. was still in a deadlock, the U.S. was still unsure of committing troops to the area, and the atrocities of war still plagued the civil­ians of Bosnia.

DEMOCRATS PUSH CLINTON AND

GORE INTO THE WHITE HOUSE

'

The last 12 years have been a Republican political system.

For Democratic supporters across the country the theme for the 1992 election was "Make a Change," in which the movement has sparked college support as well as support from high school stu­dents across the country to support the Democrat presi­dential candidates Bill Clinton and AI Gore.

Support has also come out for Carol Moseley Braun, the Illinois Democratic Senate nominee who defeated

incumbent Senator Alan Dixon last spring.

Braun is the first generation of women who has made his­tory by becoming the first black woman to be nominat­ed to the U.S Senate.

With Braun setting the movement for women to step in the arena of politics, women have started cam­paigns of their own such as Democratic candidates Lynn Yeakel in Pennsylvania, Bar­bara Boxer and Diane Fein­stein in California.

The 1992 election has also

captured the interest of 18-24 voting age with the age group supporting both candidates in the race.

According to "U. The National College Magazine" survey of 1,052 college stu­dents on 41 campuses nation­wide shows that 86 percent of the students surveyed are reg­istered to vote and 86 percent plan to vote.

The survey also indicated "Clinton is leading among col­lege students with 53 percent in support of the Arkansas governor. About 23 percent plan to vote for Bush and 22 percent are undecided. "

On the local level, Eastern's University Democrats pushed a full agenda of activities for the campus community such as having local Democratic candidates lecture to their group, offering informational tables in Coleman hall , road trips and a campus canvassing of Democratic posters of local and national candidates.

The University Democrats have had candidates such as the Coles County States Attor­ney candidate Steve Ferguson, Bill Warren, candidate for the 53rd Illinois State Senate Dis­trict and former Eastern grad­uate Carolyn Brown Hodge, a candidate for the House seat from the 106th District to lec­ture at the meetings.

The University Democrats followed the Democratic cam­paign, by attending the National Democratic Youth Rally that honored Bill Clin­ton, Carol Moseley Braun and the 1992 Democratic ticket and annual Fall National Committee meeting in Chica­go.

Eastern's University Democrats were a part of 2,000 young Democrats that took part in various caucuses and committee meetings and met with members from other University Democrat chapters from across the country and the state of Illinois.

Other activities that the

group participated in was vol­unteering their time at the U.S. Senate candidate Carol Moseley Braun's headquarters and field offices in Chicago.

The National Democratic Youth Rally include members who heard an address by Chicago candidate for State's attorney Pat O'Connor, who served as the master of cere­monies.

Some of the Democratic candidates that were on hand to address the crowd were State Comptroller Dawn Clark Netsch, the Democratic Party of Illinois Chairman Gary La Paille and University of Illi­nois-Champaign, Ada Lopez, the first female Hispanic can­didate to run for the Universi­ty of Illinois Board of Trustees position.

Among the lectures at the rally, La Paille made a speech on the Republican administra­tion's issue of education and addressed Clinton's stance on the topic.

"George Bush has made it difficult for students to get an education and Clinton will offer the opportunity for stu­dents to get an education.

The group has also volun­teered their time in the Coles County Democratic Office at 718 1/ 2 Monroe, phone bank­ing, door to door campaign­ing and sign distribution for senate candidate Carol Mose­ley Braun.

There was also a Democrat­ic Walk for Change that included University Democrat­ic members to walk with other campus organizations such as Delta Sigma Theta, Zeta Phi Beta, the Hispanic Student Union and other stu­dent organizations as well as local Democratic candidates.

With 45,000 Republicans coming out for the Republi­can convention in August, George Bush was standing confident in the Astrodome, in Houston, Texas for the family affair of Republican values.

The major issue of the Republican campaign was "family values" an issue that was stressed highly from the beginning of the convention.

Bush and Dan Quayle stood strong while each of them gave their own personal issues on family values.

Pat Buchanan also lent his views of republican issues that were sent to light on the supreme court, homosexual rights and the military.

Time Magazine reported that Buchanan "rose before the delegates in Houston to declare what he called " a cultural war" (noting like a war to obscure the economic issue) and try to help tear off a fat half of America for George Bush.

Buchanan pounded at "the agenda that Clinton & Clinton (meaning Bill and Hillary) would impose on America­abortion on demand, a litmus test for the Supreme court, homosexual rights , discrimi­nation against religious schools, women in combat units .. "

Newsweek reported Bush to "have a game plan for the convention, ancient but ser­viceable: he would savage Bill Clinton as yet another "out of the mainstream liber­al."

During the convention, speakers tore the Clinton's proposals for a new econom­ic plan as the largest tax increase in history.

According to Time Maga­zine, "the Bush Administra­tion's Office of Management and Budget used the figure $220 billion, while Bush and other speakers, like Congress­man Newt Gingrisch, cited tax increases of $150 billion.

Bush gained the support of televangelists Pat Robertson and Jerry Falwell , in which both preachers stressed fami­ly values and their support for the republican ticket.

Bush also gained support from long time friend James Baker, former secretary of state, who became his new campaign boss and director.

managed to get this man on the ballots in a lmost every state. Then in July, he removed himself from the race . This shattered and disappointed many of his sup­porters across the nation. In a flip-flop turn of events, Perot reentered the race October.

Perot was planning an October surprise days after he le ft the campaign trail. Hoping that Bush and Cl inton would spend the summer slinging mud at each other in the cam­paign, Perot promised to returned as the "800 pound gorilla."

By leaving the campaign for a few mo nths, Perot was able to reorganize his campaign, and ease the hostilities between his Washington and Dallas offices. Top men in Perot's tent were removed. Campaign manager Ed Rollins, former GOP operative, was replaced by Orson Swindle a former Marine POW. And the list goes on changing the big guns of other White House campaigns to o ld friends and re latives.

After his return , Perot made his way into the Presi­dential debates and presented

NANNYGATE HINDERS I ATTORNEY GENERAL

NOMINATION When President Bill Clinton

put out a search for a new Attorney General, he didn't expect the task to be hard to fill.

His first choice was a top notch lawyer Zoe Baird, a women who would have been the ideal choice for the posi­tion.

However, Baird was elimi­nated from the position

a senior committee member and the Senate's deputy GOP leader, said that as an author of the nation's immigration's laws he could not support the nomination of someone who broke them."

The White House continued the search and found another candidate to replace Baird; Judge Kimba Wood.

According to a Time maga-

'~gain a woman withdrew her name from consideration from the post. Again, the con­flict involved an illegal alien."

because of hiring a Peruvian couple who were illegal aliens and failing to pay taxes for them.

The couple was hired to provide family care for the Baird family .

Baird was reported that she was going to take full respon­sibility for the actions that had occurred.

The Associated Press report­ed, "I've said that I believe that what I did was wrong, and I apologized for it ," Baird said.

The Baird incident also cre­ated opposition against within the senior committee mem­bers.

AP also reported that "Sen. Larry Pressler, R-S-D. , a mem­ber of the committee, which is expected to vote on the nomi­nation said that he believed her behavior would diminish her effectiveness as the nation's top legal officer, espe­cially when it comes to enforc­ing immigration laws. "

"I'm talking about your creditability," he said, adding that his opposition was reluc­tant. "You're my kind of per­son. I feel very badly about this."

"When none emerged, word leaked out from the White House that the Wood nomina­tion was almost a sure thing. "

"Again came the awful deja vu. Again a woman withdrew her name from consideration from the post. Again, the con­flict involved an illegal alien."

Both Baird and Wood creat­ed an embarrassment for the Clinton administration as well as the post offered.

Time also reported that "Wood, like Baird, had been a highly paid lawyer at the time she hired to care for her child. "

Since then Clinton and his administration have put in the search for another candidate, and the names of Washington lawyer Charles Ruff and for­mer Virginia Governor Gerald Baliles have been put up for recognition for the job along with an strict white glove inspection of their pasts.

1992 PRESIDENTIAL

ELECTION

On November 3, presi­dential elections were held and for the first time in 12 years a democrat was elected president.

Arkansas Governor Bill Clinton, the ·first baby­boomer to be elected as president, won in decisive fashion over President George Bush and Inde­pendent H. Ross Perot.

This election saw much of the old mud-slinging tactics we've grown used to from politicians and many new things that were unique to this elec­tion. The first was H. Ross Perot. The Texas billion­aire entered the race, dropped out, and then re­entered with barely a month to go. Perot's eccentric behavior and lively personality helped draw attention to voters and the race.

Another rarity to this presidential race was the many television appear­ances made by all three candidates. From Clinton playing the saxophone on the Arsenio Hall Show to the purchase of 30 minute blocks of television by Perot to Bush being inter­viewed by MTV, the elec­tion was always interest­ing.

All three candidates were also seen on many talk shows from 'Good Morning America' to the ' Today Show.' All three were also on the ' Larry King Show' but that seemed to be the personal favorite of Perot.

This election also had the liveliest debates of our generation. Bush and

236

Clinton stuck to the com­mon rhetoric of politicians while Perot sounded much like the common voter with more than a few wise cracks thrown in.

The second of the pop­ular debates had ques­tions from actual voters, which to the delight of Clinton, showed how out of touch from voters Bush actually was when he had trouble answering how the recession had person­ally affected him. Bush had rode on a high approval rating after the Gulf War but those ratings plummeted just months later when voters became worried over the reces­sion and the poor econo­my.

Clinton, whose platform played on the weakness' of the Bush administra­tion, won handily in the electoral college although he only received slightly over 40 percent of the popular vote. Clinton needed 270 e lectoral votes but finished with 370. Bush received only 168 electoral votes but able to pull in over 35 percent of the popular vote. Perot, who didn't receive any e lectoral votes, was able to pull down nearly 20 percent of the popular vote. A third party hadn't received any major voter backing since 1968 when American Independent George Wal­lace pulled in 16 percent of the popular vote against Richard ixon and Hubert Humphrey.

CLINTON SWEARS IN AS THE 42ND

PRESIDENT OF THE UNITED STATES Even if the whole world

was not watching, the jour­nalists and the cameras were, on the day William Jefferson Clinton was inau­gurated, Wednesday, Jan­uary 20.

Amy Glazik, sophomore accounting major, said she did not have the opportuni­ty to watch the inauguration or the gala that followed because of her schedule and lack of time.

"I had no time to watch it, " Glazik said. "I would have liked to have heard Maya Angelou.

"I voted for Perot because he was the best out of the three ," she said. "If he had not been in the race , I wou ld have voted for

Bush." Glaz ik gave comments on

the Clinton administration and the job it has done thus far.

"I think it was bad judge­ment to address the gay in the military issue so soon in office," she said. ''I'd like to see him follow through with education and the health care problem. The situation is hurting his credibility."

Senior political science student, Wes Cornwell , said, "I have seen the actual inauguration , part of his speech and the Bushes and Quayles leaving.

"I'm pro-Bush, " he said. "I will be in support of the President because I'm an American citizen.

"It w ill be tough on Chelsea and I feel Chelsea will probably get very close to the White House staff," Cornwell sa id.

"I wish the president four years in office, nothing more," he added.

Carla Rehmer, a sopho­more accounting major, said a president cannot sit around to do something during his term even if that includes addressing the situ­ation of gays in the military.

"Clinton should not have waited on the issue of gays in the military if that is what he believes in, " said Kathy Dentino, senior accounting and French major. "I'm looking forward to the years we will spend with Clinton in office.

"I have no confidence in him," she said. "I hope he will earn my confidence and my trust. I'm not going to start out as being pes­simistic."

"I think it will be easier for (Chelsea) than for the others and she is probably used to him being away and involved in other things, " said senior political science and speech communication major Nancy Walker.

"Yes, I really think he has some real good ideas and started to put them in effect. I am looking forward to what he can do for us . It will be an interesting four year, " Walker said.

Harold Nordin and his wife, Barbara , were able to attend the inaugural oath.

"We were pretty far away from the Lincoln Memorial and we had to have a secu­rity pass for a selected area," he said. "We went to

the reunion on the Sunday before the inauguration.

"We watched the oath on the big screen," Nordin said. "It was kind of neat at the end when they announced there were no arrests. People did not drink or smoke and everyone was friendly to one another."

"When Al Gore was sworn in there was a big sigh of relief," he said. "My wife and I were able to get $100 tickets by someone who was selling them on the streets where we would be able to sit diagonally from the President for the parade. The whole situation was pure luck. "

"The thing about it was interesting," he said. "Presi­dent Clinton kept on walk­ing to the end of the parade route which was never done before. The people were cheering because they didn 't expect to see him.

"People were happy with an euphoria," Nordin said. "We also went to the Viet­nam Memorial with the Hal­lida couple from Mattoon. Mrs. Hallida had a cousin who had died.

"It was my wife, Barbara, who had made the financial contribution before Clinton even won," he said.

"She had framed the inau­gural invitation."

"The Hollidas had made the arrangements for flying and accommodations," he added.

"There is no animosity. Only if you live in a democ­racy can something like this happen," he said.

HILLARY AND TIPPER CHANGE THE ROLE

OF THE PRESIDENTS' "WJVES TO THAT OF

A PROFESSIONAL, MODERN "W"OMAN

Hillary Clinton and Tipper Gore, were very active in the cam­paign--Mrs. Clinton, a tough-minded lawyer, and Tipper Gore, a crusader for warning labels on albums with explicit lyrics. Both women were tireless campaigners for the Clinton/Gore ticket. After the election, Mrs. Clinton sparked controversy when she became the first of the First Ladies to have an office among the President's top aides and by becoming the head of the new administration's Health Care task force. RM Photo Service, Inc.

When Democrat candidates Bill Clinton and Al Gore became elected to the presi­dential positions, America got more than it bargained for.

Their wives, Hillary Clinton and Tipper Gore, a new gen­eration of women, are taking their jobs as the first ladies as seriously as their male coun­terparts.

The First Lady Hillary Clin­ton has broken the traditional molds of former First Ladies by taking a vocal stance on issues of putting women in combat and standing on the

sidelines of homosexuals. The tough career-track

woman is a partner in a law firm and has been rated as one of the top 100 lawyers in the country.

In a telephone poll of 836 voters taken for CNN and Time Magazine, Voters rated "Hillary Clinton 82 percent intelligent, 55 percent a good role model for young women and 43 percent more liberal than her husband. Voters also rated her 40 percent as someone as they admired."

Time also reported that

"her image as a tough career woman probably peaked in March, when Democratic gadfly Jerry Brown charged that her law firm benefited unfairly from her marriage to the Arkansas Governor.

Aftec,she shot back, "I sup­pose' I could have stayed home, baked cookies and had teas," many minds snapped shut on the Hillary question faster than you can say soundbite.

"The work that I have done as a professional, a public advocate, has been aimed ... to assure that women can make the choic­es .. . whether it's full time career, full-time motherhood or some combination," Clin­ton said.

She has also gained some criticism as well as praise for her quick wit and tough­skinned attitude. She has been praised by Newsweek as being woman of the year as well as sliced by the Republi­can party as being anti-family and "overly ambitious

careerist" as Time reported. The Second Lady Gore, has

also been a crusader for women to follow with her being a lobbyist and founder of a group that advocates warning labels on explicit song lyrics. She also has plans of supporting children's mental-health issues.

Gore took an active part in the Illinois State fair this sum­mer that made a stop in Springfield.

With her husband and fel­low Democrats Carol Mose­ley Braun, Roland Burris and Neil Hartigan, she actively campaigned through the Fair grounds.

The new First and Second ladies will definitely trade in the pearls and ballgowns of the former first ladies of the past and certainly approve for a blue powersuit, a pair of heels and a briefcase that will be large enough for agenda and blueprints of the political world. By KAREN MEDINA

Saddam Hussein is alive and well and living in Baghdad. Tbe Mideast war ended in February 1991. Since that day, President Bush has urged the downfall of the leader. But within Iraq, Sad­dam Hussein appears to have grown only stronger since his troops were forced out of Kuwait. However, he lives under a a constant threat of death by Iraqi opposition leaders and a host of other enemies. It was because of this fear of assassination that he reorganizes his personal bodyguard corps and appointed his youngest son, Qusai, as chief of presidential security. RM Photo Service, Inc.

SADDAM KEEPS

THINGS STIRRED

UP IN THE GULF Saddam Hussein became

a recurring nightmare for President Bush and a new one for President Clinton.

As the leadership in the United States came near to the time of changing, Hussein began to defy the United Nations no fly zone and other conditions imposed upon him after the Persian Gulf War.

According to a Newsweek report, Hussein set a missile trap in southern Iraq, appar­ently hoping to shoot down American warplanes enforc­ing the "no-fly " zone in the region. Bush and his allies issued an ultimatum: move the missiles, or else. Baghdad moved the missiles be promised to wage "an honor­able fight."

In the closing days of his presidency, Bush was faced with what to do with Iraq. Outside of air strikes on near­by missiles sites, Bush and Clinton's options were limit-

ed. The Newsweek report went on to say that the Clin­ton Administration might be tempted to settle things with Hussein but considering everything he has done "it is hard to see how even a new American leader can bury the hatchet with Iraq."

But Iraq did try. Hussein, promised to stop his flights into the "no-fly" zone during Clinton's inaugural celebra­tion. A peace offering that was received coldly by Clin-ton.

"For now, Clinton is care­fully following Bush's lead. 'There is no daylight between our two positions,"' he said.

Many close in the white house speculated that Clin­ton's first foreign policy crisis would be Iraq. The troops massed at Kirkuk and Mosul began posing a threat to the Kurds and a ground attack became possible. By M.K. GUETERSLOH

OPERATION RESTORE HOPE When 16,000 U.S Marines

landed on the shores of Somalia on Dec. 14, 1992, they expected to be home shortly. President George Bush hoped that the mission would be accomplished before he left office on Jan­uary 20.

Operation Restore Hope, a United Nations' backed-mercy mission led by U.S forces, is getting more complicated each day. The humanitarian efforts two main goals of delivering food to starving Somalis and restoring order to a nation ruled by powerful warlords are literally coming under fire. Capt. Mike Belcher in Jan. 25th's edition of Newsweek expressed his con­cern for his troops. "My men wonder who the enemy is

DO YOU THINK IT'S RIGHT TO HAVE U.S. TROOPS IN SOMALIA WHEN THERE ARE 33 MIL­LION POOR IN THE UNITED STATES?

and that's tough because this is a humanitarian mission and there isn't supposed to be an enemy." As of Jan. 25 two U.S Marines were killed by sniper fire.

Although most Americans support the noble efforts of the U.S. Marines, many of those same people feel that other countries should help keep world peace and restore order to hot spots around the world. In a Dec. 14, 1992 poll conducted by Newsweek, 56 percent of the people thought that other countries have responsibility as the United States when it comes to keep­ing world peace, and 42 per­cent felt that the United States has a greater responsibility than other nations.

Dr. John Faust, a political science instructor at Eastern,

DO YOU THINK OTHER COUNTRIES SHOULD TAKE MORE RESPONSI­BILITY IN KEEPING WORLD PEACE?

"Yes I do. I think that the United States is viewed as the world's police because we are the only remaining superpower. Other coun­tries should step up and help out." BARRETT CALLAGHAN, SENIOR POLITICAL SCIENCE

believes that world peace should be a shared responsi­bility.

"We have a responsibility to help," Faust said. "However, we can't go run another coun­tiy. In the post-cold war e ra you don't go into a trouble spot by yourself, you get help so you don't get involved in a situation that may turn into a problem. Germany and Japan have clone very little to help.

The prima1y reason for the turmoil in Somalia, according to Faust, is due to a break clown in society.

"There was chaos before we got there," he said. "This is occurring in third world nations were society is break­ing clown.

However, Faust does not think American troops should pull out until order is

restored. "If we pull out right now it

will go back to like it was before," he said. "What needs to be done is a working arrangement with the United Nations to provide structure for education, communication and administration so that they will be able to function."

According to Faust, the costs for helping Somalia is money well spent.

"We spent $300 billion in Vietnam over a period of ten years," he said. "Wouldn't a collective effort to help soci­ety work be a better invest­ment?" By DANIEL DORT

YELTSIN COMES UNDER

COMMUNIST'S FIRE More than 10,000 supporters

"The walls of the Kremlin are not shaking from our cries. The people inside are shaking!" hard-line legislator Sergei Baburin declared over the loudspeakers to the biggest pro-Communist demonstration in months.

Two years prior to this uprising, equally large protests by Yeltsin supporters helped bring him to power. But his supp01ters have left the streets and let the pro-Communist take over in the past year and

a half. The rally came on Defend­

ers of the Fatherland Day, known as Soviet Armed Forces Day until the Soviet Union collapsed in 1991.

Leading the march were 10 rows of officers in greatcoats and tall fur hats , marching in lockstep and singing revolu­tionary songs.

They were followed by mostly older Muscovites, pen­sioners and veterans, many wearing medals on their breasts.

A neighbor alerted authori­ties to the girls' situation after a smoke alarm went off in the Schoo's house sending the girls next door.

Original charges of con­tributing to the neglect of a child against the Schoo's were expanded in February to include over 60 counts of aggravated battery, misde­meanor battery and felony possession of marijuana.

COMMUNITY SCARED On Friday, Januaty 8,

1993 w\1en individuals employed at the Brown's Chicken and Pasta Restaurant in Palatine, Illinois went to pick up their paychecks, it would never occur to them that ten minutes after closing tragedy would come to those who were working that night.

For this relatively crime free suburban area of Palatine, shock spread as word came about of seven employees being brutally murdered.

According to the Chicago Tribune, authorities learned of the massacre when the parents of one of the employees called police concerned that their son had not yet returned from work.

When officers arrived at the scene they noticed the rear door to the restaurant was

open. Upon entering they found seven bodies, some face down in a cooler and walk-in refrigerator. The bodies were discovered 5 1/ 2 hours after the 9p.m. closing. All had been shot several times.

The victims included owners Richard E. Ehlenfeldt, 50 and his wife Lynn Ehlenfeldt, 49 of Arlington Heights. Guadalupe Maldonado, 46, Thomas Mennes, 32, Marcus Neilsen, 31 of Palatine and Palatine High School Students, Rico Solis, 17 and Michael Castro, 16.

Soon police attention turned to a 23 year-o ld Elgin man. Martin E. Blake had been fired from the restaurant after New Years Eve. A woman said he had left a party at his house just before 9 p.m. about the time the crime was likely to

have been committed. But after two days questioning he was released.

A week after the massacre, three men and women from Schaumburg were taken into custody after a telephone tip. All were released except one man on unrelated warrants.

No one is currently being questioned or held.

Born in Richmond , Virginia, were Ashe learned exquisite manners and unshakable calm from tennis coach, Dr. Robert Johnson. Johnson also taught him that the linesmen would be against him and to play any shot that was an inch or two outside the lines as if it were good.

Graduating from UCLA, he went on to win the 1968 U.S. Open and the 1975 Wimbledon.

In addition to tennis , Ashe was a writer, turning out the three volume , A Hard Road to Glory, a docu­mentation of black sporting history.

According to Sports Illustrated 's Kenny Moore , Ashe felt sure he could beat AIDS and believed a breakthough was on its way and would come in another two years.

The last two weeks in January Ashe spent in the New York Hospital and was recovering well. Feb. 2 was his last public appearance as the next day he became ill with a fever.

"He fought hard, and as in his tennis days, it was always how he played the game ," said Ashe ' s widow, Jeanne Moore went on to describe Ashe 's manner , writing , "Yet, off the court , even a single second away from furious, frustrating exchanges, his replies were always considered , always balanced.

THURGOOD MARSHALL

1908-1993 The week of February 1, 1993 saw the loss of one of

America 's greatest fighters for civil rights die, Supreme

Court Justice Thurgood Marshall at age 84.

Marshall was born in Baltimore in 1908. His mother

was a school teacher and his father was a Pullman porter

and a head stewart at a wealthy country club on the

Chesapeake Bay.

After high school, Marshall attended Lincoln University,

a small all black school in Pennsylvania. From there he

went onto graduate first from his law class at Howard

University in 1933.

In 1954, Marshall brought before the Supreme Court

the landmark Brown v. Board of Education. Marshall also

brought 32 more civil-rights cases to the Court and won

an unprecedented 29 of them.

Congressional delegate for the District of Columbia

said of Marshall, "A lot of folks don't appreciate that

Thurgood Marshall and his band of lawyers were the

only civil-rights movement there was until the late

1950's. "

He went on to be a federal judge and then in 1967 was

the first black named to the Supreme Court.

Marshall had first asked the question of the logic of

separate-but-equal education with just asking about law

schools. His arguments were flawlessly understated and

no one could ever suggest he played to the courts sym­

pathies.

"Equal means getting the same thing, at the same time ,

and in the same place, " Marshall said.

JOHN BIRKS (DIZZV) GILLESPIE

1917-1993 Dizzy Gillespie died at age 75 in the second week

of 1993 of pancreatic cancer.

Known for the shape of his trumpet and the shape

of his checks when he played it , Gillespie was the

last of jazz's heros.

Gillespie outlived Charlie Parker, with whom he

had revolutionized jazz in the early 1940's.

According to Newsweek's David Gates , Cuban

Conga drummer Chano Pozo joined the band Gille­

spie led in the late 1940's and collaborated on such

tunes as "Manteca." Many of his followers thought

he played best with a big band. The bop esthetic

generally favored lean and mean small groups, but

Gillespie had one foot in the Avant-garde.

244

"Dizzy still belongs to the past," pianist John

Lewis told a Washington Post reporter in 1973.

Gates continued to say that Gillespie loved to

sing and clown as well as flabbergast with his bril­

liance and inventiveness , and he never quite saw

why that should bother anybody. It was typical of

Gillespie that he achieve his masterly technique by

doing everything wrong.

"I have the worst embouchure in the world," he

said.

"Gillespie seldom listen to his own music once he

recorded it, but when he died peacefully in his

sleep , 'Dizzy's Diamonds' was playing softly in his

1929-1993 In January, Audrey Hepburn, 63, died after a short

battle with colon cancer. Hepburn was diagnosed with the cancer in November 1992 after she began complaining of stomach pains .

Hepburn was born in Belgium , father was an Irish banker and her mother was a Dutch Baroness.

After he father left when she was six, she spent her teens years in the Nazi-occupied Netherlands with her mother, eating tulip bulbs to survive.

She emerged from the war with the dream of becoming an dancer , and earned a scholarship to study ballet in London. While playing a bit part in a movie called "Monte Carlo Baby," Hepburn caught the eye of Colette, who felt Hepburn was the perfect person to play her "Gigi" on Broadway. At the same time , director William Wyler come to London looking for an unknown to star in "Roman Holiday," which won her an Oscar in 1954. The same year she won a

Tony and married actor Mel Ferrer. Working opposite men like Cary Grant , Henry Fonda, she starred in movies such as "Breakfast at Tiffany's" and "My Fair Lady," she made a track record that work make this "simple-looking but full of grace" girl to legendary status.

Her last performance in a film was a cameo in "Always" appearing as an angel before Richard Dry­fuss.

But screen work is not all Hepburn will be remem­bered for. After her screen work, she had devoted herself to working as an ambassador for UNICEF since 1988. In March 1993 she again received an Oscar, this time for her work with UNICEF , being awarded the Jean Hersholt Humanitarian Award.

David Ansen of Newsweek said of her passing, "Hepburn's timeless elegance defined her time ; her spirit is irreplaceable."

EIU SPORTMAN SOCIETY: A HUNT FOR ADVENTURE Picture yourself sleeping under the stars and waking up to a beautiful sunset. Imagine your day filled with

the feel of dominance when conquering the water and hills with canoeing, hiking and biking. These are just a few activities available in the EIU Sp01tsman Society.

EIU Sportman Society has been around for a few years, but unfortunately it never really took off. Joe Gal­van, a sociology major, revived the society fall 1992 and is the current president.

According to Galvan, the EIU Sportman Society was formed to "foster wide student interest and participa­tion by providing leadership programs and services to assist in development ski lls and leadership ability, pro­mote wildlife preservation and hunting safety, as well as, camping and hiking. " .;.· . .. .. .. ·;·;.;.;.

Eastern students have the opportunity to explore "central Illinois, a beautiful place with lots of resources to use at their disposal," Ga lvan said.

While being a recognized student organization, a subdivision of the society is a seven-member trap and skeet team. The team competed in Ohio and Peoria, Ill. last year. The team is planning to compete during the spring semester.

A fundraising activity is planned for the spring semester. A fishing derby at Fox Ridge State Park is in the works.

Galvan believes the society is a "stepping stone and an avenue for students and faculty" who are interested in issues of wildlife and the adventure it hosts.

The society would like to see both students and faculty get involved which would increase student and fac­ulty relations.

EIU Sportsman Society is open to any major. Meetings are conducted twice a month under Galvan. By MAREEN ANCHETA and CHRISTINE ZAPEL

CAMPUS MINISTER SHARES HIS LIFE WITH EASTERN STUDENTS

Influencing people's lives is important to the campus minister of Newman Catholic Center.

"I am honored to be able to journey with students here," said Roy Lanham, Newman Catholic Center's campus minister. "They share their journey with me and it has a pro­found effect on my life. "

After receiving a bachelor's degree in philosophy at Cardinal Glennon College, St. Louis, Mo. and a master's degree in theology from University of otre Dame, Lanham was asked by Rev. Bob Meyer to interview for campus minister. Lanham also attended a seminary before coming to the area.

"I came and interviewed and I liked what I saw," he said. "It's an exciting job." I like what I see the church doing on campus. I was looking for a move to do some­

thing in my life. " For the last seven years, Lanham has been campus minister. Most of his duties

include working with college students. Along with his already enormous duties, he is also director of the Newman Catholic

Center. This position organizes fundraising, retreats, bible studies and theology classes. Organizing is not the only duties he has. He believes that he plays a part in "getting

students excited and involved with voluntary community service." This would include work with the Haiti Connection and the local De Paul Society that works with area poor.

"The whole community service arm is important," he said. Lanham considers his job an important part of college students' lives. "People are at an exciting time in their lives," he explained. "In college there is a lot

of growth for students , and I am proud to be a part of it." Integrating faith and education is something that Lanham likes to achieve. "I have helped people to integrate faith and knowledge and that is important," he

said. "If a student graduates and they can have a healthy sense of their faith, then we have done our job."

One struggle Lanham has encountered is the question of how to get students excited about their faith.

According to Lanham, coercing students is not the answer to gain excitement. "They have given me the opportunity to enter into their story," he added. "I have

shared my life with them and they can offer a lot. " By CATHY MYERS

SORORITY PROVIDES COMMUNITY SERVICE Epsilon Sigma Alpha is a service sorority that has done a lot for children and the Charleston community. "Our primary goal is to help the handicap," said publicity chairperson, Kathleen Check. "The major fundraisers are Easter seals and

St. Judes." "ESA had a Walk-a-Thon for St. Judes Children's Research Hospital Oct. 17 where we walked to Sarah Bush Health Center and back,"

said ESA pledge, Nancy Walker. "On Oct. 24 we had a trick-or-treat for St. Judes," Walker said. "We visited area business an asked for donation from the patrons of

the businesses. "We visit area nursing homes and play bingo and watch movies with the residents," she said. ESA participates in Special Olympics which is held on the Lakeland Community College campus in Mattoon, Check said. They also participated in a canned food drive for the Charleston food pantry and a toy collection for the Salvation Army. "We made a donation to Sigma Nu fraternity for Make a Wish foundation and we also sorted clothes for Hurricane Andrew," said

Dana Blasey, charter member and social chairperson. "ESA is a learning experience that takes time and dedication to make ESA what is today," Blasey said. "We do a lot for the communi-

ty, and we do a lot for our members. " Even though ESA is primary service, the organization also has social activities. "We have a party and a ceremony for our pledges," Blasey said. "We also had a four day rush. " "We participated with Delta Sigma Pi business fraternity and the Marketing Association in homecoming," Blasey said. "We also partic­

ipated in Fun and Games, Delta float and bonfire. " By TERESAJOHNSON

PHI BETA CHI PlANS TO BUILD AND GROW Phi Beta Chi believes they have held their own during the past year. Eastern's newest social sorority received their charter last November with 25 members. "All our hard work paid off when we reactivated and received our charter," said Michelle Sabin, a senior speech

communication major and president of Phi Beta Chi. Having met their goal of receiving their charter, the sorority has set its goals already for their future. "We want to build our membership and make it stronger," Sabin said. "We want to make sure when we gradu­

ate that we'll stay around for years. We want to set patterns that the next classes can follow." One of the highlights of the year was Homecoming for the new sorority. They received second place overall

with the help of Sigma Nu fraternity. "Sigma Nu has been very supportive this whole year," she explained. "The whole fraternity came to our charteri­

zation." With accomplishments like Homecoming, Phi Beta Chi believes they have been more accepted among the greek

community this year. One of the hardships that the sorority must face is not being a national panhellenic sorority. This gives them no

voting rights at Eastern's Panhellenic Council meetings. The national Phi Beta Chi only needs five more chapters across the nation.

Since the sorority is not national panhellenic, they are not allowed to participate in formal rush. Sabin believes that they do better in informal rush which is held about twice a year. Some of the other events that Phi Beta Chi has participated in is the Delta Chi Super Bowl, the Phi Sig Rock-a­

than and their own philanthropy. A miniature golf putt-a-than for the Bethesda Lutheran Home was held in October. The Bethesda Lutheran

Home is a home for mentally disabled adults. Other than functions and events, Sabin believes that there are other opportunities that evolve from joining a

sorority. Sabin believes that a sorority gives girls the opportunity to meet people. "If you find the right sorority, then you find girls you like to hang around with. " Personally, she has learned to deal with different types of people. Sabin doesn't want to take all the credit for the success that Phi Beta Chi has received this year. "We've has a lot of support from our national director, Linda Saddler," she said. "She's the backbone of this

sorority. Eileen Sullivan has also been very helpful." By CATHY MYERS

MEMBERS WANT TO BECOME FOREFATHERS The newest fraternity on campus is one step closer to making Eastern what they can call home. Phi Delta Theta, a social fraternity, was established with 13 members in February of 1992. They were officially colonized by their headquarters Nov. 15, 1991. The colonization signifies that they are recognized by

their national fraternity, but they need to establish the requirements for an official charter. Their next step is to work toward obtaining this charter by fall 1993. In order to meet this goal they need to have 35-50 members , an established central location such as a house and the mandatory paperwork on the meetings and other established national material.

Phi Delta Theta was established because a group of young men were looking for the opportunity to be the forefathers of a new fraternity. They look forward to being the ones to sign the charter without ever being a pledge. Establishing a new frater­nity offers leadership possibilities that can be used in their future lives.

They now have 28 members as a result of informal rush. They participate in formal rush and are recognized by Inter-frater­nity Council. The fraternity is not allowed to vote until they receive their charter.

Keith Massie, president of Phi Delta Theta, believes that the members' originality is one way to compete with other already established fraternities at Eastern.

The members can offer variety and a chance for originality, according to Massie. "We want the scholar to help establish our G.P.A. and the athlete to contribute to intramurals," said Massie. "Everyone can

offer something to this fraternity. " For now, Phi Delta Theta will participate in fall rush to bring up their membership. They are looking for housing alterna­

tives since Phase Four of greek court has been put off. By fall 1993, Phi Delta Theta should be an established new addition to greek life. By TRACIE MULHOLLAND

GUEST SPEAKERS KEEP ZOO CLUB INFORMED Field trips and an annual fund raiser at Lake Shelbyville round out the year for Eastern's Zoology Club. The club meets every other Wednesday where speakers come and talk to the students. "We have speakers to enlighten us on what's going on and keep us informed, " said Cristy Elving, president of the

Zoology Club. "I contacted these people ovet"the summer and booked them throughout the entire year." Speakers from Southern, Illinois State and University of Illinois and the local community visit the club and speak on

various topics. Some of the topics include a psychologist's research with rats, a couple's work with Helping Hands and monkeys, and a professor who found a skull in Africa that may be a missing link.

Elving, a junior zoology major, has been involved in the club for about two years. One of the fundraisers that the club holds every year is the annual Dove Hunt Monitoring at Lake Shelbyville. The club

distributes blinds to the hunters, checks the age of the birds and limits the hunters. "This is a big money maker," Elving said. "We have about five fields to take care of. " The club also took a field trip to the St. Louis Zoo and the World Bird Sanctuary. "They gave us a tour of the World Bird Sanctuary and a personal tour of the zoo," Elving explained. "We got to go

behind the scenes in the hoofed animal area and see the quarantined animals they just received that they couldn't put on display yet."

The group was disappointed because they could not get a tour of the commissary, the place where they distribute the food, and the hospital, according to Elving.

Two trips are planned for the spring semester. A weekend break at Lake Shelbyville and a behind the scenes tour of Shedd's Aquarium in Chicago.

"It will be very relaxing. There are a lot of boats and trails, " Elving said of the trip to Lake Shelbyville. The club has about 50 members. "You don't have to be a member," she said. "Just show up at meeting if it sounds interesting. " By CATHY MYERS
