Hope  for  the  future  was  all  that  remained 
after  a  year  of  mourning  and  change.  These 
tragedies  and  events  brought  us  together,  forcing 
us  to  become  one. 

We  returned  to  our  apartments,  dorms  and 
classes  with  a  touch  of  weariness.  At  the  end  of 

the  summer  we  watched  University  President  Dale 

Lick  resign,  forcing  the  administration  to  find  an 
interim  president.  It  was  announced  that  former 

president  Bernie  Sliger  would  act  as  president  until 

a  replacement  was  chosen. 

As  we  once  joined  to  heal,  we  later  joined 

in  celebration.  We  saw  tradition  and  expansion  as 

the  Magnetic  Lab  opened,  the  twentieth 

anniversary  of  Mainstage  performances  began  and 

construction  continued  on  Doak  Campbell 

Stadium. 

Together  we  camped  outside  of  the  Dick 
Howser  Stadium  ticket  booth  for  days  in  order  to 

get  football  tickets  to  the  game  against  Miami, 

billed  as  the  Game  of  the  Century. 

(Continued  to  page  5)

(Continued  from  page  3) 
We  intensely  watched  the  first  win  over 

Miami  in  three  football  seasons.  That  game  also 

made  winners  out  of  the  fortunate  students  who 

were  able  to  get  tickets.   Due  to  the  new  athletic 

fee  thousands  of  students  were  left  with  only  a 

useless  coupon  after  all  student  tickets  were 

distributed.  Whether  we  endured  the  October 

heat  to  see  the  game  live  at  Doak  Campbell  or 

watched  at  home  from  our  couches,  for  one 

weekend  we  were  the  happiest  people  in  the 

South. 

One  issue  that  united  us  was  the  athletic 

fee  that  was  added  into  tuition.  Following  ticket 

distribution  for  the  Miami  game  students,  with 

the  support  of  the  Student  Government 

Association,  protested  the  fee. 

We  learned  that,  together,  things  were 

possible.  Although  we  were  named  the  number 

one  party  school  in  the  nation,  we  kept  our 

priorities  in  perspective.  The  fall  brought  us 

together;  we  worked  to  make  the  AIDS  quilt's 

visit  a  success  and  Stop  Rape  Week  raised 

awareness  on  campus. 

In  our  world,  where  things 

add  up  quickly,  we  have  found  that 

we  are  not  all  alone.  Working  together  is  the 

solution  and  the  sum  of  the  parts  is  greater  than  the 

whole.

"Never  stop 
believing  in  love".  "  And 
the  greatest  of  these  is 
love".  "Gone  but  never 
forgotten."  These  sayings 
and  several  hundred  others 
were  carefully  stitched  to 
fabric  and  sewn  together  as 
quilts  to  create  the  loving 
memorium. 

Friends  and  families 
of  deceased  loved  ones 
gathered  around  the 
masterpiece  with  contrite 
hearts,  remembering  the 
good  and  bad  times  they 
had  shared  with  the  faces 
which  appeared  on  each 
panel.  For  others,  who  had 
never  experienced  an 
event  like  this,  it  was  time 
to  learn  and  cast  away 
feelings  of  prejudice, 
discrimination  and 
ignorance. 

A  year  and  half  ago, 
the  Golden  Key  National 
Honor  Society  began  their 


Vriting  a  message  of 
love,  a  student  takes  the

epidemic  has  brought.

quest  to  bring  the  NAMES  Project/AIDS  Memorial  Quilt 
to  the  community.  The  Student  Government  Association 
jumped  in  and  furnished  the  display  fee  of  $3,500.  Once 
the  financial  committment  was  met,  Golden  Key, 
Thagard  Student  Health  Center  and  Big  Bend  Cares 
continued  the  long  application  process  which  made  it 
possible  for  the  Quilt  to  make  its  appearance  at  the 
Tallahassee/Leon  County  Civic  Center. 

"The  students  were  so  determined  to  bring  it 
here,"  Mary  Penney,  Co-Chairperson  from  Thagard 
Student  Health  Center  said.  "We  were  going  to  do 
whatever  it  took." 

As  mandated  by  the  NAMES  Project,  a  central 

CONTINUED 


planning  committee  was  established  to  choose  the  Host 
Committee  for  the  event.  Interviews  were  held  and  a 
committee  of  18  members  was  chosen  to  coordinate  the 
event.  Each  committee  was  led  by  a  student  and 
community  leader  to  ensure  both  avenues  would  be 
covered.  Volunteers  from  around  the  area  came  together 
to  help  make  the  dream  a  reality. 

"It  was  the  most  emotional  experience  I've  ever 
been  through,"  Tracy  Henningfeld  said.  "I  noticed  how 
close  to  home  this  disease  really  was.  Through  my 
volunteer  work,  I  felt  as  though  I  was  really  making  a 
difference.  It  was  refreshing  to  see  people  come  together 
and  help  one  another." 

The  NAMES  Project  began  in  1987  when  Cleve 
Jones  and  fellow  San  Franciscans  saw  the  need  for  public 
awareness  about  the  pain  and  suffering  connected  with  the 
disease.  The  first  display  of  the  Quilt  in  its  entirety  was  in 
October  of  the  same  year  in  Washington,  D.C.  It  consisted 
of  2,000  panels.  Its  second  full  appearance  was  in  1992.  It 
measured  approximately  15  football  fields  and  housed 
over  22,000  panels  from  worldwide  donors.  The  29  ton 
Quilt  would  never  be  shown  in  its  entirety  again  due  to 
its  enormous  size. 

Each  panel  symbolized  the  victim's  lives  through 
the  eyes  of  relatives,  friends  and  lovers.  Anger,  fear, 
frustration  and  joy  was  depicted  on  each  with  the  aid  of 
certain  materials  such  as  lace,  leather,  taffeta,  buttons, 
flags,  poems,  songs,  articles  of  clothing,  human  hair,  love 
letters,  teddy  bears  and  favorite  photos. 

"It  was  interesting  to  see  a  comparison  between 
old  and  new  panels,"  Henningfeld  said.  "Before  there  was 
just  a  name,  now  there  was  a  tribute  with  memorabilia. 
AIDS  has  finally  become  more  'acceptable'  and  now  the 
people  who  have  died  can 
be  remembered  with  the 
respect  they  deserve." 

Among  the  600 
display    panels    were 

flamboyant  pianist  Liberace  and  AIDS  activists  Kimberly 
Bergalis  and  Ryan  White.  Forty-one  panels  were  dedicated 
from  the   Big  Bend  area  during  the  solemn  closing

ceremonies. 

"I  consider  myself  very  lucky  to  have  a 
healthy  family.  I  felt  honored  to  help  these 
people.  It  made  me  want  to  go  out  and  tell 
people  to  be  careful  so  other  families  wouldn't  be 
put  through  this  amount  of  grief .  I  pray  that  we 
get  a  grip  on  this  situation  as  soon  as  possible,  " 
volunteer  Tina  Induisi  said. 

After  the  departure  of  the  Quilt,  there 
was  an  abundance  of  work  left  for  the  Host 
Committee  to  complete.  Financial  forms, 
publicity  tactics,  updated  volunteer 
information  lists  and  other  detailed  records  were 
completed  and  sent  to  the  home  office. 


It  was  a  very  exacting  process, 
Penney  said.  "We  had  to  make  sure  all  of  the 
bases  were  covered  and  the  information  was 
current  when  we  sent  it  to  the  office.  The  key  to 
the  success  of  the  NAMES  Project  is  their 
dedication  and  organization." 

This  project  touched  more  than  just 
the  campus,  it  touched  the  entire  community. 

"It  brought  an  increased  awareness  in 
our  rather  small  community,"  Co-Chairperson 
Matthew  Shepherd  said.  "We  touched  a  lot  of 
lives  that  weekend.  Because  of  this  project,  a 
new  sense  of  compassion  was  brought  to 
Tallahassee."

Homecoming  is  a  festive 
time  for  all... 


From  the  lights  of  the  carnival  to  the  soggy  playing  field  of  the 
game,  Homecoming  gave  a  sense  of  tradition,  both  new  and  old.  Not  only 
was  this  a  time  for  the  alumni  to  visit  their  old  memories  but  it  was  also 
their  opportunity  to  see  new  ones  made. 

Homecoming  was  a  time  for  all  to  enjoy  and  for  the  tradition  of 
the  University  to  shine  through.  However,  for  anyone  familiar  with  the 
traditions  of  Homecoming  week,  it  was  evident  that  change  accompanied 
every  aspect. 

The  week  started  off  with  the  Homecoming  carnival  held  on  the 
intramural  fields.  Students,  alumni  and  the  public  came  to  enjoy  carnival 
rides  and  participate  in  such  events  as  karoake  and  sumo  wrestling. 
Different  vendors  sold  everything  from  fake 
tattoos     to  buttons  with  personalized 
snapshots. 

"We  got  tattoos  on  our  ankles  and 
buttons  with  our  pictures  on  them,"  Kim 
Kibler,  a  nursing  major,  said.  "Jen  and  I  got 
a  kick  out  of  the  tattoos." 

During  the  week,  there  was  also 
the  rededication  of  Jennie  Murphree  Hall, 
a  campus  residence  hall  that  underwent  a 
two-year  renovation  in  which  the  interior 
was  completely  gutted  and  modernized. 

Another  part  of  the  festivities 
included  the  traditional  Homecoming 
parade  in  which  all  campus  organizations 
were  invited  to  participate. 

The  Greek  organizations 
participating  in  Homecoming  events  were 
paired  into  different  groups.  The  pairings 
entered  a  float  and  banner  into  competition 
and  the  results  were  some  of  the  most 
creative  and  artistic  work  seen.  With  the  Homecoming  theme  "It's  A 
Hit,"  students  came  up  with  a  wide  range  of  ideas. 

Greek  winners  in  the  float  competition  were  the  Sigma  Nu  and 
Gamma  Phi  Beta  pairing  and  the  winners  in  the  banner  competition  were 
the  Phi  Kappa  Tau,  Delta  Zeta  and  Alpha  Phi  Alpha  pairing. 

Non-Greek  winners  of  the  float  competition  included 
Alpha  Kappa  Psi  who  took  first  place,  the  College  Republicans  who 
captured  second  place  and  the  United  Latin  Society  who  received  third 
place. 

Not  only  were  these  organizations  involved  in  the  float  and 

CONTINUED 


banner  competitons,  there  was  also  a  skit  competition.  Pairings  prepared 
a  skit  to  compete  against  the  other  campus  sororities  and  fraternities. 
Winners  in  the  skit  competition  were  the  Lambda  Chi  Alpha  and  Kappa 
Delta  pairing. 

As  a  whole,  the  three  categories:  float,  banner  and  skit,  all  played 
a  part  in  showing  the  spirit  of  the  University  and  the  diversity  among 
students. 

Following  the  Homecoming  parade  and  activities  was  the  much 
anticipated  Pow  Wow  event.  Held  at  the  Tallahassee/Leon  County  Civic 
Center,  the  University  pep  rally  featured  the  crowning  of  Matt  Frier  as 
Chief  and  Joy  Staple  as  Princess. 

"I  was  very  surprised  when  they  called  my  name,"  Princess  Joy 
Staple  said.  "I  couldn't  think  of  a  better 
way  to  end  a  wonderful  week.  It  was  like 
ending  my  four  years  with  a  bang." 

Although  the  crowning  of  Chief  and 
Princess  was  a  tradition  at  the  University, 
the  Greek  domination  of  Homecoming 
elections  was  different  than  what  had  come 
to  be  expected  from  previous  years.  Matt 
Frier  changed  all  of  that  when  he  became 
the  first  Seminole  football  player  to  be 
crowned  Chief. 

In  fact,  voters  at  the  Leach  Center 
were  surprised  when  Frier  showed  up  to 
vote.  One  student  who  commented  about 
his  vote  for  Frier  received  a  handshake  and 
a  slap  on  the  back  in  appreciation. 

Frier's  success  during  Homecoming 
stemmed  from  the  support  of  his  family  and 
friends. 

Head  Coach  Bobby  Bowden,  the 
University  cheerleaders,  the  Golden  Girls,  the  Marching  Chiefs  and  the 
skit  competition  were  also  featured  at  Pow  Wow  along  with  the  comedy 
of  Allan  Harvey  and  headliner  Howie  Mandel. 

Other  Homecoming 

activities      included    a  breakfast,  a 
torch     run  from  the  Panama  City 
campus  to  Doak  Campbell  Stadium 
and  the  thirteenth  annual  Reservation  Run  from  the  Broadcast  Center 
to  the  Seminole  Reservation. 

The  traditional  football  game  continued  with  the  Seminoles

versus  Wake  Forest  at  Doak  Campbell  Stadium. 
Although  the  weather  was  rainy  and  cold, 
Seminole  fans,  students  and  alumni  came  out  to 
support  their  team. 

The  weekend  was  tun  for  all. 
Following  the  game,  Tallahassee  merchants 
put  on  a  downtown  block  party  with  good 
food,  live  music  and  a  street  dance  for  all  to 
enjoy. 

"As  a  Homecoming  representative,  I 
saw  all  of  the  hard  work  and  dedication 
that  went  into  Homecoming  and  the  building 
of  the  floats,  the  designing  of  the  banners 
and  the  skit  practices,"  Laura  Webb,  the  Delta 
Zeta  Homecoming  representative,  said.    "It's 


FROM  PAGE  1 3 

a  lot  of  hard  work  but  in  the  end  it  pays  off." 

Homecoming  activities  came  to  a  close 
with  the  Homecoming  Galla.  This  event  was 
open  to  all  Saturday  evening  at  the  Tallahassee/ 
Leon  County  Civic  Center. 

Awards  for  Homecoming  were  given 
and  there  was  food  and  entertainment  for 
everyone  who  attended.  This  new  tradition 
added  to  the  excitement  and  entertainment. 

The  overall  winner  o{  Homecoming 
was  presented  to  the  SN  and  r<f>B  pairing. 

Overall,  Homecoming  was  a  week  full 
of  the  remembrance  of  old  traditions  and  the 
beginning  of  new  ones.

"I  take  it  everywhere ! 
It's  already  been  all  over  the 
United  States  and  last 
summer,  I  took  it  to 
Europe,"  Coral  Chance 
said.  "I  guess  you  could  say 
it's  a  world  traveler." 

It  was  not  the 
American  Express  Card, 
nor  was  it  any  sort  of 
X  *I^f  automobile.  It  was  the  tried 
and  true,  practical  and 
dependable,  fashionable, 
yet  sturdy,  backpack. 
Around  campus,  it  was 
impossible  not  to  notice 
how  abundant  it  was. 

The  backpack  served 
as  a  keeper  for  the  hectic 
and  often  unorganized  life 
of  the  college  student. 
Students  who  carried  one 
knew,  that  without  it,  they 
Would  be  prisoners  in  a  land 
of  confusion,  lost  keys  and 
misplaced  papers. 

With  so  many  colors 
and  styles  to  choose  from, 
seeing  two  identical  backpacks  was  quite  rare.  Even  if  the 
brand  and  color  were  identical,  something  usually  existed 
to  set  it  apart  from  all  of  the  rest.  The  backpack  served  as 
sort  of  a  window  to  the  soul.  Creative  students  decorated 
theirs  with  artwork  and  doodles,  while  other  students 
simply  let  pins  and  buttons  do  all  of  the  talking.  It  was 
possible  to  learn  something  about  another  person  just  by 
checking  out  their  backpack. 

Some  students  purchased  the  basic,  generic 
backpack  for  a  very  low  price,  while  others  went  all  out  and 
bought  the  heavy  duty,  name  brand,  leather  one.  One  of 
the  most  unique  backpacks  seen  around  campus  was  the 
one  with  the  built-in  clock.  Characters  from  Disney  and

Looney  Toons  popped  up  on  backpacks  throughout  the 
University. 

Cartoons  were  not  the  only  ways  to  express  an 
interest.  Sports  fans  had  no  trouble  finding  their  favorite 
embroidered  logo  or  team  colors  on  a  backpack.  However, 
the  most  popular  team  logo  seen  was  that  of  the 
University's  own  Seminoles. 

Besides  making  a  fashion  statement,  backpacks 
had  many  practical  uses  as  well.  They  were  loaded  with 
pockets,  pouches,  zippers  and  many  other  secret 
compartments.  With  all  of  the  books  and  materials 
students  had  to  carry  around,  having  the  extra  storage 
space  helped. 

"I  keep  pens  and  pencils,  tissues,  money,  keys  and 
my  glasses  in  the  extra  pouch  on  my  backpack,"  Renee 
Green  said.  "All  of  my  books  and  paper  go  in  the  main 
section." 

Although  the  backpack  was  made  to  be  worn 
around  both  shoulders,  the  majority  of  students  favored 
one  side  to  carry  it  on.  Bicycle  owners,  however,  were 
thankful  for  the  two  straps. 

"When  I  ride  my  bicycle  to  class,  I  just  put 
my  backpack  on  both  shoulders,"  Heather  Rooney 
said,  "and  I  don't  have  to  worry  about  it  falling 
off." 

Backpacks  were  not  only  used  at  the  University. 
They  were  often  spotted  at  airports.  Travelers  stashed 
magazines,  candy,  purses  and  pillows  in  them  to  carry  on 
the  plane.  Campers  used  them  for  carrying  tents,  sleeping 
bags,  food  and  utensils.  People  who  lived  in  the  city  often 
took  their  backpacks  on  the  bus  or  train  and  on  shopping 
trips  because  they  were  more  convenient  than  several 
shopping  bags. 

A  nice  little  invention,  the  backpack  served 
different  people's  needs 
worldwide.  Perhaps  the 
most  appreciative  of  the 
invention  of  the 
backpack,  though,  was  the  tired  student  who  needed 
something  to  rest  his  head  on  while  taking  a  snooze  in  the 
Union.

Seminoles  claim  in-state 
bragging  rights  from  rivals 

LOVVOUT 


Adrenaline.  The 
thousands  of  chanting  fans 
felt  it.  The  coaches  felt  it. 
The  players  felt  it  -  driving 
them,  pushing  them  to 
their  highest  intensity  level 
of  the  season.  The  fans 
made  sure  everyone  around 
them  sensed  the  same 
feeling  of  anticipation 
when  they  cheered  and 
chanted  during  pre-game. 

When  the  Florida 
State  Seminoles  football 
team  took  on  the  Florida 
Gators,  the  Miami 
Hurricanes  or  the  new 
rival,  the  Notre  Dame 
Fighting  Irish,  the  result 
was  explosive,  hard  hitting, 
"in  your  face"  football. 
These  three  teams  were  not 
just  schools  on  the 
schedule,  there  was  much 
more  on  the  line  than  just 
the  win.  It    was    a 

Photo  by  Vanessa  Crockett  feeling  and  an  attitude  that 
fans  had.  There  was  also  a  "right"  that  came  with  winning 
a  rivalry  game. 

That  "right"  was  being  able  to  tell  friends  who 
cheered  for  the  opposing  side.  There  were  also  those 
family  members  that  lived  in  a  different  part  of  the  state  or 
country  and  therefore  felt  a  loyalty  to  another  mascot. 
Students  enjoyed  telling  others  that  graduated  from  their 
high  schools  that  the  Seminoles  had  won  the  "right"  to 
call  themselves  State  and  National  Champions. 

"Having  a  rival  gives  you  bragging  rights," 
linebacker  Ken  Alexander  said.  "From  the  time  I've  been 
here,  I  haven't  had  that  chance;  hopefully,  that  will 
change  this  year." 


If  one  were  to  play  a  game  of  word  association 
with  a  FSU  football  fan  and  mention  rivalry,  one 
would  likely  hear  one  or  the  other:  Gators  or 
Hurricanes.  For  many,  the  Gators  brought  out  the 
animosity  due  to  the  longtime  tradition  but  mention 
Miami  and  some  Seminoles  eyes  narrowed  and  faces 
reddened. 

"I'm  from  Clearwater,  so  for  me,  you're  either  a 
Seminole  or  a  Gator,"  offensive  tackle  Greg  Frey  said. 
"When  I  go  home,  I  hear  about  it  for  a  year  or  I  hear  how 
lucky  we  were  this  time.  It's  a  matter  of  respect." 

When  the  Miami  Hurricanes  blew  into  Doak 
Campbell  Stadium  to  take  on  Charlie  Ward  and  his  aerial 
attack  offense,  one  could  see  the  sparks  flying.  For  many, 
this  became  a  grudge  match  compared  to  no  other. 

"To  beat  Miami  at  home  was  the  best  graduation 
present  I  could  have  gotten  this  season,"  senior  Shannon 
Moore  said  after  the  Seminoles  28-10  defeat  of  the 
Hurricanes. 

The  entire  Tallahassee  community  showed  their 
competitive  spirit  when  Miami  came  to  town.  Thousands 
of  students  camped  out  to  claim  their  tickets,  t-shirt 
vendors  lined  the  streets,  cars  became  moving  billboards 
painted  with  shoe  polish  and  thousands  of  desperate 
people  held  signs  begging  for  tickets.  It  was  a  game  to 
remember. 

"My  father  is  a  die  hard  Cane.  The  phone  call  to 
him  in  Miami  after  we  beat  them  was  the  best  call  I  made 
all  year,"  senior  Miguel  Fernandez  said. 

The  dawn  of  a  new  rivalry  began  in  the  fall  with 
a  school  deeply  embedded  in  football  history  and 
tradition.  The  Fighting  Irish  of  Notre  Dame  took  on  the 
Seminoles  for  the  first  time,  bringing  anticipation  for 
many  great  future 
battles. 

Rivalries 
evoked  a  special 
hunger  in  the  players,  parents,  coaches,  alumni  and  fans. 
Whether  it  was  Florida,  Miami  or  even  Notre  Dame,  the 
Seminoles  looked  to  satisfy.

Sometimes  it's  found  in  the 
most  unexpected  places 

UIDANCE 


As  Gilchrist  residents  got  settled  into  their  rooms 
and  classes,  Larry  Williams  and  Earnestine  Henry  made  the 
first  attempt  to  make  everyone  feel  at  home.  For  many 
homesick  students,  the  friendly  smiles  and  compassionate 
gestures  of  the  two  were  a  real  comfort.  Whether  it  was  a 
simple  "hello"  every  morning  or  the  start  of  a  good  friendship, 
everyone  in  Gilchrist  encountered  the  genuine  good  cheer  of 
Larry  and  Earnestine.  The  two  were  residence  hall 
maintenance  workers  who  felt  that  their  jobs  included  a  great 
deal  more  than  making  sure  everything  was  clean  and  running. 

"The  other  day  I  saw  a  girl  outside  her  door  in  the 
hall  crying,"  Earnestine  said  as  she  shook  her  head.  "  She  said 
she  hated  it  here  at  college.  She  was  homesick.  I  talked  to 
her  and  I  prayed  for  her.  It  hurts  me  to  see  them  hurting.  I 
like  everyone  to  he  happy.  I  know  they  miss  home  and  they 
have  someone  here." 

In  between  sc nibbing  floors  or  cleaning  the  restrooms 
Earnestine  could  be  found  socializing  with  the  girls  who  lived 
on  her  assigned  floors.  Many  girls  looked  to  her  for  friendship 
as  well  as  guidance.  Her  kind  face  seemed  to  attract  all  who 
had  a  problem  or  just  wanted  to  talk  to  someone. 

"Earnestine  is  a  good-hearted  woman  and  a  hard 
working  lady,"  junior  Jennifer  Thomason  said.  "  She  aways 
took  the  time  to  say  hello.  She  was  very  genuine  but  she  also 
stuck  to  her  professional  role." 

Larry  and  Earnestine  said  they  enjoyed  getting  to 
know  the  residents  during  the  year.  It  seemed  an  instinctive 
part  of  their  jobs  to  get  involved  with  the  students  and  talk 
to  them  everyday.  To  them,  each  student  had  a  certain 
characteristic  that  made  them  unique.  Many  students  that 
moved  out  of  Gilchrist  Residence  Hall  each  semester  left  an 
impression  on  Larry  and  Earnestine  that  lasted  a  lifetime. 

"There  was  one  guy  who  lived  here  who  I  called 
Howard  Cosell,  after  the  sports  commentator,"  Larry  said. 

"He  knew  absolutely 
everything  about  any  sport. 
He  loved  to  talk  about  it.  He

was  amazing. 
Larry  and  Earnestine  did  not  seem  to  mind  the 
messes  that  residents  left  around  the  bathrooms  and  in  the 
halls  after  the  weekends. 


"It  doesn't  bother  me,"  Larry  said.  "Kids  will 
be  kids." 

Larry  said  he  could  even  tell  which  male 
resident  left  which  mess.  He  said  he  enjoyed  getting  to 
know  the  different  types  of  guys  who  lived  on  his  floor. 
The  guys  seemed  to  really  enjoy  Larry  as  well. 

"Larry's  an  all-around  great  guy,"  second  floor 
residence  assistant  Roger  Kostiw  said.  "  Everyone  sees 
Larry  as  a  friend." 

Both  Larry  and  Earnestine  said  they  worried 
about  the  students  as  they  adjusted  to  life  without 
parents  and  guardians. 

"I  tell  my  boys  at  home  that  the  girls  at  Gilchrist 
are  mine,"  Earnstine  said.  "They  are  my  girls  and  I  just 
love  them." 

Larry  said  he  considered  students'  weekend 
drinking  as  a  stress  reliever  a  potential  problem. 

"A  lot  more  students  are  drinking  under  age. 
As  long  as  they  do  so  in  moderation  and  don't  drive  it's 
ok,"  Larry  said.  "  I  know  from  personal  experience  that 
drinking  and  driving  can  get  you  into  trouble." 

Larry  and  Earnestine  said  they  learned  a  lot 
about  the  students  just  by  watching  and  observing 
them.  According  to  them,  the  students  were  more 
advantaged  and  had  more  possessions  than  previous 
years.  With  all  of  the  radios,  microwaves,  televisions 
and  other  electronic  devices,  it  seemed  the  residents 
had  all  the  comforts  of  home. 

"It  used  to  be  that  students  mostly  brought 
luggage  and  books.  Now  they  make  room  for  the 
Nintendo  set,"  Larry  said.  "As  long  as  it  makes  for  a 
more  comfortable  atmosphere  to  study  in,  that's  o.k." 

Dealing  with  the  messes,  debris  and  other 
negligence  of  students  could  be  nerve-racking  for  some 
people,  especially  the  maintenance  workers  who  saw  it 
everyday.  Larry  and  Earnestine  seemed  to  accept  all  the 
students  for  who  and  what  they  were. 

"Gilchrist  Hall  is  very  old  and  can  seem  dismal 
at  times.  Yet  Larry  and  Earnestine  make  everything 
seem  brighter,"  sophomore  Diedre  Feely  said.  "They 
make  everyone  feel  at  home."

Have  you  ever  faked 

Seriously,  now.  Have 
you  ever? 

On  campus,  it  was  not 
uncommon  to  run  into 
thousands  of  students  who 
had  done  it. 

Fantasy  ? 
Exaggeration  ? 
Enhancement  of  the 
mediocre? 

"Sure,  I've  faked  it. 
But  I  don't  share  that  kind 
of  information  with  just 
anybody,"  a  student  who 
wished  to  remain 
anonymous  said. 

Do  not  think  the 
topic  of  discussion  here  is 
the  S  -  E  -  X  word.  Guess 
again. 

The  controversial,  yet 
very  personal  issue,  was 
students,  mostly  women, 
who  disguised  their  natural 
selves  with  artificial  hair 
color,  extensions,  nail  tips 


/\  student  buffs  her

was  to  assure  that 
there  were  no  air

and  natural  look.

to  enhance  their 
appearance. 


and  tropical  tans  in  the  height  of  North  Florida  winters. 

"On  a  random  day,  in  a  random  class,  I  counted 
nine  people  out  of  1 7  who  either  had  monster  acrylic  nails 
or  obviously  were  suffering  from  the  curse,"  senior  "au 
naturale"  Tifanny  Mordini  said. 

Mordini  described  the  curse  as  punishment. 
Three  weeks  after  someone  picked  a  fabulous  color  at  the 
salon  everyone  could  see  that  they  were  being  punished 
with  grotesquely  dark  roots  springing  from  their  scalp. 
And  if  the  curse  did  not  punish  fakers  enough,  incriminating 
photos  surely  did. 

"One  weekend  when  I  went  home,  I  found  a 


picture  of  my  mom  with  a  frosted  blonde  afro,"  Toshia 
Harper  said.  "She  normally  had  straight,  brown  hair.  She 
said  she  was  pretty  cool  then  but  I  couldn't  help  but 
laughing." 

Some  students  had  families  which  were  ultra 
conservative  in  the  1970's  and  could  not  seem  to  find  any 
blackmail  pictures. 

A  personal  survey  could  be  conducted  daily.  At 
the  Union  on  any  Wed.,  the  rainbow  assortment  of  Life 
Saver-colored  hairdos  could  be  seen  blooming  on  the  stairs 
of  Moore  Auditorium.  And  at  any  local  gym,  brown, 
bulging  biceps  and  suntanned,  blondes  could  be  spotted  in 
the  dead  of  Tallahassee's  dreary  winters. 

Being  a  slave  to  fashion  did  not  come  cheaply 
either.  Acrylic  nails  could  cost  as  much  as  $35  for  a  set  and 
had  to  be  filled  at  least  every  two  weeks  for  $15.  Over  a 
year's  time,  acrylic  nails  could  cost  a  faker  $425! 

The  hair  coloring  industry  made  a  fortune  off 
victims  who  paid  from  $25  to  $50  initially.  Necessary 
touch  ups  were  needed  every  eight  weeks  or  so  depending 
on  the  color  and  the  touch  ups  could  cost  as  much  as  the 
original  coloring.  It  did  not  take  a  mathematician  to 
calculate  the  big  dollar  signs  in  image  enhancing  tactics. 

"Money  is  no  object  when  it  comes  to  looking  as 
good  as  I  possibly  can,"  sophomore  Dee  Jackson  said.  "I  do 
not  want  a  $5  haircut  because  I  am  a  firm  believer  that  you 
get  what  you  pay  for." 

Certainly,  the  idea  of  faking  it  was  not  a  new  one 
and  all  efforts  to  fake  it  were  not  disasters.  Marilyn 
Monroe  was  a  prime  example  of  a  mousy  Midwesterner 
gone  Hollywood,  as  her  hair  changed  from  brunette  to 
platinum. 

It  was  possible  to  make  millions  off  of 
charlatan  images  in  the  1990's.  Some  superstars  faking 
it  included  Andre  Agassi, 
Madonna  and  even 
RuPaul,  the  seven-foot  tall, 
platinum  blonde  transsexual  pop  star. 

The  theme  of  the  decade  could  have  been  said  by 
Andre  Agassi,  "Image  is  everything."

Pike's  probation  was  extended  three 
more  years  by  the  University  but  they 

RE  BACK 


They  were  back  and  the  news  shook  the  campus. 
Although  denied  a  return  to  campus  by  both  the 
Interfraternity  Council  and  the  University  administrators,  Pi 
Kappa  Alpha  decided  to  come  back  with  or  without 
University  recognition. 

The  Delta  Lambda  Chapter  of  nKA  had  their 
charter  revoked  in  1988  when  members  refused  to  cooperate 
with  the  police  investigation  that  followed  the  gang  rape  of 
an  1 8-year-old  student.  At  the  FIKA  fraternity  house,  the  girl 
was  given  alcohol  and  then  raped  by  several  fraternity 
members.  She  was  then  taken  to  another  fraternity  house 
and  dropped  in  their  foyer,  after  members  had  painted 
demoralizing  words  and  another  fraternity's  symbols  on  her 
thinks. 

When  the  police  questioned  nKA  brothers,  the 
entire  fraternity  refused  to  cooperate.  Their  refusal  to 
cooperate  with  the  police  prompted  the  University  to  kick 
the  fraternity  off  campus  for  five  years  and  prompted  their 
national  office  to  revoke  their  charter. 

The  fraternity  was  denied  a  return  to  campus 
because  of  an  unofficial  nKA  group,  the  Firemen's  Club, 
which  operated  during  the  term  of  the  fraternity's 
suspension. 

The  University  gave  the  chapter  an  additional 
three  year  suspension  because  the  alumni  association 
violated  the  terms  of  the  original  suspension  by  assisting  in 
the  creation  of  the  illegal  underground  club  made  up  of  nKA 
members. 

Even  though  the  University  deemed  this  a 
reasonable  punishment,  the  nKA  did  not.  The  fraternity's 
newly  colonized  members,  local  alumni  and  national  office 
were  ready  to  challenge  University  authorities. 

"We  feel  we  were  unfairly  denied  recognition  by  the 
University   review  committee   and   the   Interfraternity 

Council.  We  are  going 
to  reco Ionize  the 
chapter,"  Bob  Hall, 
president  of  nKA 's  local  alumni  chapter,  said. 

Pi  Kappa  Alpha  met  with  the  Panhellenic 
Association  to  discuss  possible  sorority  involvement  with  the 
fraternity. 


By  Dody  Perry 


Since  the  fraternity  was  not  recognized  by  the 
University,  sororities  refused  to  have  social  functions  with 
nKA  or  mix  with  them  in  any  way. 

"We  flat  out  told  them  we  would  not  support 
them.  We  have  no  intention  of  assisting  them  in  any  way, 
shape  or  form,"  Panhellenic  President  Julie  Dunn  said. 

The  community  seemed  wary  of  the  fraternity's 
return  due  to  the  fresh  memory  of  the  student's  rape.  It 
made  various  Tallahassee  women's  groups  angry, 
concerned  and  frustrated. 

"(  Phe  unofficial  group)  shows  that  they  have  no 
respect  for  women  in  this  community...  they  don't  have 
the  ability  to  follow  rules,"  Lynn  Rosenthal,  executive 
director  of  the  Refuge  House,  said. 

Starting  an  unwelcome  colony  on  a  campus  was 
not  a  common  occurrence  for  nKA  fraternity.  In  fact,  it 
has  never  happened  according  to  the  nKA  National 
Director  of  Expansion  Stevan  Vincent. 

"We  have  never  done  this  before,"  Vincent  said. 
"We  have  never  gone  to  a  university  without  approval. 
This  is  a  special  case...  We  feel  that  nKA  can  have  a 
positive  impact  on  FSU.  We  owe  it  to  the  alumni  and  the 
students  who  contacted  us  to  get  a  colony." 

The  Pikes  were  back  and  they  were  trying  to 
prove  that  they  were  not  the  same  guys  that  were  here  five 
years  ago.  The  National  nKA  fraternity  and  the  Alumni 
AA  Chapter  wanted  a  colony  started  on  campus  with  or 
without  the  approval  of  the  University. 

The  colony  had  several  requirements  to  meet 
before  they  could  receive  their  charter  again.  The 
requirements  were  the  toughest  on  campus  including  a 
combined  3.0  GPA  and  60  hours  of  community  service  per 
member.  This  accounted  for  a  combined  total  of  3  500  man 
hours  of  community  service. 

"We  are  looking  for  scholars,  leaders,  and  most 
importantly,  gentlemen.  Every  person  that  wears  the  Pike 
letters  will  be  watched,  from  the  president  to  members, 
and  it  is  important  that  the  people  we  rush  represent  the 
three  qualities  that  we  demand,"  Kent  Braughman, 
President  of  the  nKA  colony  said.  "All  we  are  asking  for 
is  a  chance  to  prove  ourselves."

Lake  Ella  was  one 
of  the  many  local  spots 
where  students  went  for 
fun,  relaxation  or  whatever 
else  entered  their  minds. 

Located  on  North 
Monroe  Street,  this 
particular  body  of  water 
served  as  a  fairly  pleasant 
tourist  attraction. 

With  the  fountain  as 
its  centerpiece,  Lake  Ella 
was  surrounded  by  ducks 
being  fed  by  children, 
squirrels  that  ran  up  and 
down  the  trees  and  a 
romantic  gazebo. 

Picnics  were  very 
common  at  Lake  Ella 
because  of  the  setting  and 
scenery  of  the  environment. 
Quite  a  few  couples  took 
advantage  of  the  lake's  late 
night  ambience  for 
romantic  reasons.

transformed  Lake  Ella  into  a  lover's  lane.  Some  lovebirds 
relished  taking  moonlit  strolls  or  snuggling  togeth  er  on  the 
park  benches  or  in  a  vehicle. 

"A  close  male  friend  and  I  parked  by  the  lake, 
looked  at  the  bright  stars  through  his  sunroof  anc  drank 
together,"  biology  major  Christie  Jones  said. 

Other  students,  however,  felt  a  little  different 
towards  the  lake's  romantic  atmosphere.  Since  the 
lake  was  situated  just  off  one  of  Tallahassee's  busiest 
streets,  the  clamor  of  traffic  could  annoy  romantic 
intentions. 

"It's  just  not  as  romantic  or  important  as  th*y 
claim  it  to  be,"  senior  Derrick  Brown  said. 


Lake  Ella  was  not  only  a  place  for  couples,  single 
students  also  found  worthwhile  activities  to  do.  The 
American  Cancer  Society  Move  -  Along  -  Athon  was  held 
on  Oct.  23  at  the  lake.  This  event  was  for  anyone  willing 
to  walk,  jog,  run,  roller  blade  or  wheelchair  around  the  lake 
in  memory  of  a  loved  one  or  a  friend. 

Many  University  students  participated  in  this 
event  by  obtaining  donations  from  peers  and  companies. 
The  Move  -  Along  -  Athon  was  a  tremendous  success  for 
the  volunteers  and  for  the  American  Cancer  Society. 

"  I  felt  like  I  did  my  part  as  a  community  member 
of  Tallahassee  and  a  fellow  student  of  the  University  for 
the  Cancer  Society,"  early  childhood  education  major 
Sandra  Borowiec  said. 

Staying  healthy  and  keeping  in  shape  was  one  of 
the  main  concerns  of  students  and  Lake  Ella  provided  the 
perfect  setting.  Many  students  went  there  for  exercise, 
such  as  walking  or  jogging  around  the  lake. 

Being  outside  was  a  welcome  change  after 
being  cooped  up  in  a  classroom  for  several  hours  and 
University  students  enjoyed  having  someplace  other 
than  the  gym  to  exercise. 

"Unlike  my  first  impression,  which  was  that 
Lake  Ella  is  just  a  make-out  spot,  I  learned  that  it 
could  be  a  place  to  walk  around  and  talk  with  your 
friends,"  freshman  Tiffany  Duhart  said. 

After  classes,  students  enjoyed  hanging  out  with 
their  friends  or  studying  at  the  lake.  Picnic  tables  and 
large,  sprawling  oak  trees  offered  a  more  relaxed  atmosphere 
than  Strozier  Library. 

"I  grew  up  in  Tallahasse.  I  spent  many  summer 
afternoons  there  with  my  family,"  junior  Ann  Kemper 
said.  "The  older  I  got  the 
more  I  used  the  lake  as  a 
place  to  study  or  just  to 
relax." 

Whether  it  was  a  place  to  socialize  with  friends, 
enjoy  the  environment,  jog  a  mile  or  two,  volunteer  for 
activities  or  spend  quality  time  with  a  loved  one,  Lake 
Ella  proved  to  be  the  perfect  get  away  spot  for  students 
at  the  University.

Outlandish  scenarios  for  hours  on 
end!  Some  students  found  that 
they  just  couldn't  live  without 
their 


OAPS 


Amnesia .  Marryingyour  long  lostbrother  who  was  your 
best  friend's  ex-husband.  Discovering  you  had  a  twin  sister  who 
was  kidnapped  by  terrorists  at  birth  and  raised  in  the  jungles  of  San 
Cristobal.  A  lavish  wedding  attended  by  all  of  the  prominent 
citizens  of  Salem,  interrupted  by  the  bride's  dead  husband.  A 
medical  intern  who  delivered  twins  to  an  unwed  mother  in  a  canoe . 
Coming  back  to  life  six  times ,  on  three  different  shows . 

Did  any  of  these  scenarios  sound  familiar?  Chances 
were,  they  did. 

For  daytime  soap  opera  fanatics,  this  was  just  the 
beginning.  Some  students  shuffled  around  their  work  and 
class  schedules  just  so  they  could  catch  a  glimpse  of  their 
favorite  stars  at  work. 

For  others,  video  recorders  were  set  hours  in 
advance  for  the  day's  episode.  At  the  end  of  a  long  day, 
students  could  come  home  and  watch  their  favorite  star- 
crossed  lovers  cross  paths  once  again. 

"It's  amazing  how  frustrating  it  is  to  watch  these 
things.  Sometimes  you  just  want  to  scream  at  the  TV  and  tell 
them  how  ridiculous  they're  being,"  senior  Maria  Fulgieri 
said. 

Mystery,  intrigue  and  most  importantly,  romance, 
drew  young  men  and  women  in,  for  at  least  an  hour  a 
day. 

"It's  a  nice  escape  after  a  long  day,"  junior  Tracy 
Hammer  said.  "You  look  at  some  of  these  people  and  think 
'  I  wish  I  had  clothes  like  that'  or  'I  want  my  wedding  to  be 
that  perfect.'" 

The  audiences  of  these  dramas  were  predominantly 
female,  however,  an  occasional  conversation  in  class  was 
started  by  a  conspicuous  male  seated  in  the  back  row. 

"  A  guy  can't  openly  admit  that  he's  a  soap  fan  or 
he'll  get  criticized.  It  certainly  has  advantages  though.  It's  a 

great  way  to  meet  girls.  At 
least  you  know  you'll 
potentially  have 
something  in  common 
with  them,"  a  college  male  who  wished  to  remain  anonymous 
said. 

Television  was  not  the  only  way  to  catch  stars  in

action.  Personal  appearances  around  the  country  gave 
fans  the  opportunity  to  rub  elbows  with  their  heroes  and 
heroines. 

"About  a  year  ago,  I  saw  Micheal  O'Leary 
(formerly  Dr.  Rick  Bauer  ol  Guiding  Light)  at  the 
Tallahassee  Mall  with  a  friend  of  mine.  He  was  so  nice  and 
answered  all  of  our  questions.  We  even  got  our  pictures 
taken  with  him  and  an  autograph.  It  was  great,"  Jamie 
Cichon  said. 

1  rendy  soap  opera  magazines  made  it  possible  for 
viewers  to  keep  on  top  of  current  story  lines  and  plot 
twists. 

"Soap  Opera  Digest  and  Soap  Opera  Weekly 
come  in  handy  when  I  fall  behind  on  my  soaps.  I  should 
own  stock  in  them  by  now.  Hopefully  the  entire 
collection  will  be  worth  something  one  day,"  senior  Kim 
Kappes  said. 

Daytime  soaps  also  made  a  contribution  to 
current  issues;  they  were  not  just  a  fantasy  world  of  glitz 
and  glamour. 

"Margo's  rape  on  As  the  World  Turns  was  the 
most  compelling  story  I've  ever  seen,"  Fulgieri  said.  "The 
writing  and  acting  were  very  real  and  I  think  it  made 
people  realize  the  trauma  a  victim  goes  through  after  such 
a  heinous  crime." 

Date  and  gang  rapes,  homelessness,  safe  sex  and 
AIDS  were  some  of  the  hot  topics  which  soaps  tackled. 

Nighttime  soaps  also  made  a  comeback  with  the 
Fox  Network's  Melrose  Place  and  Beverly  hiills  902 1 0.  Both 
shows  touched  on  several  sensitive  issues  like  their 
daytime  counterparts. 

Beverly  Hills  90210  specifically  addressed  a 
younger  audience  since  the  entire  cast  recently  entered 
college.  The  show  spotlighted  teen  pregnancy,  religious 
persecution  and  drug  use.  On  Melrose  Place,  where  the 
characters  were  about  five  years  the  senior  of  the  90210 
cast,  they  tackled  alcoholism,  adultery,  gays  in  the 
military  and  prostitution. 

Whether  you  were  a  fan  or  not,  soap  operas  made 
their  mark  on  the  television  world.

DDICTED 


Sleeping  is  known  as 
an  addiction  for 
students.  Some 
students  just  could 
not  stop  hitting  the 
snooze  Button. 


iany  students  find 
themselves  cleaning 
addicts.  Jenny 
Schoen  passes  the 
time  vacuuming  her 
apartment. 


You  needed  to  do  it. 
You  could  not  live  without 
it.  Over  and  over, 
religiously,  it  was  done.  It 
was  an  addiction. 

For  some  it  was  food, 
for  others  it  was  exercise, 
for  all  it  was  something  that 
they  were  addicted  to  and 
needed  on  a  regular  basis. 

Deprivation  of 
someone's  addiction 
sometimes  elicited  a 
physiological  response. 

"I  get  headaches  if  I 
don't  drink  at  least  one  cup 
of  coffee  every  day,"  junior 
Dehra  Stracy  said. 

People  were  mocked 
for  their  addictions.  They 
were  called  compulsive, 
sometimes  they  were 
labeled  obsessive,  but  these 
addictions  were  not  of  the 
stereotypical  nature. 

"There  is  a  major 
difference  between 

obsessive/compulsive 
disorder,  commonly  referred  to  as  OCD,  and  addictive  or 
compulsive  behavior,"  Student  Counseling  Center  Clinical 
Director  Rich  Senecek  said.  "OCD  involves  ritualistic 
behavior,  whereas  an  addiction  or  compulsion  is  something 
that  one  feels  compelled  to  do  but  not  in  the  same 
ritualistic  manner  each  time." 

Some  people's  addictions  had  an  adverse  effect 
on  their  own  bodies  but  others'  addictions  affected  those 
around  them. 

"My  roommate  thinks  I'm  crazy,"  sophomore  Jen 
Fagan  said.  "  I  can't  walk  on  my  carpet  if  I  think  that  it's 
dirty." 

An  obsession  with  vanity  was  the  problem  for

some.  These  individuals,  however  did  not  resort  to  diet 
pills  or  starvation,  instead  they  went  jogging  or  lifted 
weights. 

"After  eating  a  big  meal  I'm  unhappy  with  myself 
and  feel  compelled  to  exercise,"  Fagan  said.  "I  can  be 
obsessive  about  certain  things  but  I  don't  think  that  it's  a 
problem." 

Getting  caught  up  in  the  football  spirit  was  almost 
inevitable  at  the  University.  Hours,  sometimes  days,  were 
spent  in  ticket  lines.  Some  students  based  their  lives 
around  games  and  drove  for  hours  to  see  an  away  game. 
Still  others  stayed  glued  to  their  television  sets  on  Saturday 
so  as  to  see  the  highlight  films  over  and  over. 

"1  can't  function  without  seeing  the  'Noles  play 
football  each  week  (during  the  fall  semester),"  junior  Jeff 
Gray  said.  "I  suffer  from  withdrawal  when  we  have  a  week 
off." 

A  common  addiction  among  college  students 
was  shopping.  Students  found  that  their  shiny  new  credit 
cards  facilitated  this  addiction. 

"I  completely,  wholeheartedly,  believe  in  the  buy 
now,  pay  later  theory,"  senior  Cathy  McCorvey  said. 
"Credit  is  a  wonderful  thing." 

Credit  card  companies  themselves  also  aided  in 
this  charging  frenzy. 

"It  seems  like  every  credit  card  company  in  the 
world  has  my  address  and  wants  to  send  me  their  card," 
McCorvey  said.  "I  receive  at  least  one  credit  card  application 
per  week  in  the  mail." 

Not  all  addictions  were  bad  ones.  Craving 
chocolate  was  much  less  harmful  than  craving  a  cigarette 
or  alcohol,  especially  on  today's  college  campuses. 

"I  don't  drink  obsessively,  I've  never  done  drugs 
and  I  don't  eat  meat,  so  when  it  comes  to  candy  and 
caffeine,  I'm  all  over  it," 
senior  Ann  Killebrew 
said.  "I  feel  that  if  those 
are  my  only  addictions  then  I'm  doing  just  fine." 

"I  think  if  more  people  were  addicted  to  the 
stairmaster  instead  of  drugs,  this  world  would  be  a  much 
nicer  place,"  junior  Melissa  Walters  said.

Bringing  experience  to 
education... 


NTERNING 


College  was  a  place  to  express  new  found  ideals  and 
ideas,  a  place  to  learn  from  and  about  other  people.  It  was  also 
a  place  to  experiment  with  friends,  classes  and  the  social 
scene.  It  was  a  time  of  discovery. 

However,  for  graduating  seniors,  that  was  all 
coming  to  an  end.  It  was  time  to  put  everything  learned  to 
the  real  world  test.  It  was  time  to  intern. 

Student's  priorities  seemed  to  change  over  the 
course  of  a  college  career.  When  students  began  college,  they 
were  more  concerned  with  taking  the  right  professors  and 
required  classes.  Beginning  students  were  also  more 
concerned  with  making  friends  and  working  a  part  time  job 
in  order  to  have  enough  money  for  going  out  on  the 
weekends.  However,  when  the  years  of  college  were  over, 
the  key  word  was  experience.  Education  was  wonderful  but 
experience  was  required  to  have  the  advantage  in  the  tough 
job  market. 

"My  internship  has  provided  me  with  valuable 
insight  into  my  industry.  It  has  shown  me  the  diversity  of  the 
areas  that  are  available,"  Ginny  Walgren,  a  hospitality 
administration  major,  said. 

In  today's  job  market,  experience  was  stressed  more 
than  ever  and  interning  offered  students  the  opportunity  to 
work  in  their  chosen  fields.  Participating  in  an  internship 
experience  allowed  students  to  have  the  actual  hands  on 
experience  of  what  they  had  studied  and  read  about  since 
they  entered  their  majors. 

For  many  internship  participants,  the  process 
began  by  talking  to  their  advisor  about  internship  locations, 
contacts  and  application  information. 

In  several  departments  on  campus  students  were 
able  to  begin  their  search  with  the  departmental  bulletin 
board  which  posted  current  opportunities  for  majors.  Some 
students  were  able  to  include  an  internship  along  with  their 

classes  while  others 
were  required  to  leave 
the  area  and  immerse 
themselves  into  some 
internships. 

Some  internship  lead  directly  into  employment  while 
others  gave  students  lifelong  contacts  that  could  lead  them  to

promising  job  opportunities. 

With  some  internships  there  also  came  a 
minimum  number  of  hours  that  the  student  had  to  register 
for  within  their  college.  The  hours  ranged  from  one  to  1 2, 
with  12  registered  hours  equaling  40  hours  of  work  each 
week. 

Although  interim  reports,  along  with  a  final 
report,  were  required  from  some  of  the  students,  there  was 
much  more  to  be  gained  from  the  internship  itself.  An 
internship  was  a  time  to  work  with  professionals  and  make 
contacts  in  the  student's  chosen  field  in  order  to  see  the 
knowledge  learned  from  books  applied  to  real  life 
situations. 

"Employers  are  looking  at  more  than  a 
transcript,"  Dr.  Barry  Solomon,  a  professor  in  the  College 
of  Communication  said.  "They  are  looking  for  the  ability 
to  start  on  the  job  with  training  and  career  related 
experience.  The  best  way  is  through  the  internship." 

Interning  was  also  a  time  to  insure  the  students 
of  their  interests  and  abilities  to  make  it  in  their  chosen 
fields  of  study.  In  every  internship  a  student  was  able  to 
decipher  what  areas  of  interest  they  chose  to  make  their 
career  choice. 

With  many  different  job  offerings,  a  student  had 
the  opportunity  to  explore  different  areas  within  a  single 
field  of  study.  There  might  have  been  an  area  that 
appealed  to  some  students  more  than  another  and  the 
only  way  to  find  exactly  where  they  fit  their  niche  was  by 
interning. 

"It  was  a  good  learning  experience  because  I  got 
to  shadow  professionals  but  I  learned  more  about  being  a 
better  person  than  just  the  average  intern,"  Natalie 
Gilmer,  a  public  relations  major  said. 

With  the  internship,  students  were  able  to  gain 
the  experience  needed  while  meeting  professionals 
within  their  field  who  could  help  them  advance  into  the 
working  world.  Internships  provided  opportunities  to 
students  for  further  educational  experience  and  helped 
ensure  that  they  would  enter  the  working  world  with 
valuable  experience  and  a  working  enthusiasm  for  their 
newly  chosen  career.

Young  people  aged  18  to  29 
were  known  as  "the  lost

students  gather  at  the 
pool  green  to  watch  a

"The  lost 
generation." 

"The  twenty- 
somethings." 

"The  thirteeners" 
(the  thirteenth  generation 
since  the  Constitution). 

"The  nameless 
generation." 

"Generation  X" 
(nicknamed  after  Billy 
Idol's  first  hand). 

These  were  the 
nicknames  given  to  a 
generation  of  people 
ranging  in  age  from  18  to 
29.  Opinions  of  this 
particular  generation 
varied.  They  were 
considered  to  he  brats  by 
some  and  victims  of  past 
generations  by  others. 

Although  this 
generation  included  some 
high  school  students,  a 
majority  of  the  generation 
included  college  students 
and  young  adults  starting 


presented  by  Student 
Campus  Entertainment. 

Jtickers  distributed  by 
UMagazine  show 
rejection  for  the  label. 
"Generation  X"  was 
only  one  of  several  labels 


out  in  the  job  market. 

Born  in  the  wake  of  the  "babyboomers,"  they 
were  a  group  "in  search  of  themselves,"  according  to 
Monica  Collins,  a  writer  for  The  Boston  Herald. 

"They  think  they  know  what  they  want:  family, 
financial  success,  a  job  they  love.  But  they  aren't  sure  how 
to  achieve  any  of  these  goals,"  Collins  said. 

Collins  sympathetic  point  of  view  turned  to 
aggravation  in  the  end,  wondering  if  "this  generation  just 
wants  too  much  too  soon." 

The  criticisms  that  plagued  this  generation 
ranged  from  "symbolically  slaying  their  parents"  for  the 
problems  they  faced  to  whining  about  "their  Mcjobs" 


while  "displaced  steelworkers  and  loggers  of  the  past 
decade  who  also  labor  in  Mcjobs  ( if  they're  lucky)  but  who 
have  none  of  the  hopes  of  becoming  computer  literate  job 
applicants  like  the  generation  brought  up  on  Nintendo." 

This  argument  was  presented  in  the  Tallahassee 
Democrat  by  University  professor  Dr.  Neil  Jumonville.  He 
saw  a  lack  of  activity  from  this  generation  and  asked  for 
"better  analysis,  stronger  intellectual  quality,  a  greater 
sense  of  history,  some  humility  about  what  they  in  turn 
might  be  able  to  accomplish  in  their  lives  and  a  greater 
sense  of  altruism,  idealism  and  social  commitment." 

The  concerns  of  older  generations  challenged 
these  young  people  to  strive  for  more,  to  work  harder.  In 
looking  at  these  requests,  it  was  important  to  consider  the 
concerns  of  the  generation. 

Oliver  Trager,  editor  of  America's  Children, 
wrote,  "Recent  studies  suggest  that  America's  children  are 
caught  in  a  cycle  of  rising  crime,  child  abuse,  alcoholism, 
drug  abuse  and  suicide  and  are  faced  with  sweeping 
changes  in  sexual  standards.  Additionally,  evidence 
reveals  that  today's  young  people  foresee  a  bleak  future  for 
themselves,  this  country  and  the  world." 

Although  this  generation  saw  future  problems,  so 
did  the  many  generations  before  them.  Some  of  the 
criticisms  toward  today's  youth  may  have  been  valid  but  it 
was  important  to  remember  that  "children  are  the  world's 
most  valuable  resource  and  its  best  hope  for  the  future." 

Those  words  from  John  F.  Kennedy,  over  a 
decade  ago,  still  remained  true. 

"The  name  Generation  X  symbolizes  the 
uncertainty  that  our  generation  faces  in  the  future.  We 
have  more  problems  than  the  generations  before  us  and 
we're  not  sure  how  to  face  them,"  junior  Erin  Rooney  said. 

So,  as 
Jumonville  said, 
"...around  us  at  this 
moment    we    are 

witnessing  a  wave  of  the  young  beginning  to  lift  its  head 
and  take  stock  of  itself  as  an  entity." 

It  may  have  also  been  true  that  this  generation 
was  not  so  lost.

Generation  X  37 


Wherever  two  people  met,  there 
was  always  the  chance  of  the 


It  did  not  matter  what  kind  of  person  one  was, 
where  they  hung  out  or  who  their  friends  were.  It  did  not 
matter  what  a  person's  GPA  or  major  was.  There  was  one 
thing  that  connected  everyone  on  campus. ..the  pick  up. 

So.,  .what's  your  major?  Where  are  you  from? 

Do  you  come  here  often?  You  have  the  most  gorgeous 
eyes .  Are  those  contacts?  Are  you  in  my  biology  class ,  the  one  that 
meets  m  Ruby  Diamond? 

Whether  students  were  in  the  Leach  Center, 
Strozier  Library  or  in  the  bookstore,  pick  ups  were  every 
place  people  were.  More  obvious  places  included  local  bars 
such  as  Bullwinkles  or  the  clubs  like  Metropolis  which 
dominated  the  campus  strip  of  Tennessee  Street.  It  seemed 
that  no  matter  where  one  was,  someone  in  the  close  vicinity 
was  getting  the  "moves  made"  on  them. 

So.,  .what's  your  major?  Where  are  you  from? 

Can  I  buy  you  a  drink?  Can  I  work  in  on  the  bench  press 
with  you?  You  look  so  familiar  to  me,  I'm  sure  I  know  you  from 
somewhere. 

On  any  given  day,  literally  thousands  of  attempts 

were  made  to  spark  conversation  with  someone  new.    While 

some  crashed  and  burned,   others  found  a  future  husband, 

wife  or  significant  other  in  this  honest  past  time. 

So... what's  your  major?  Where  are  you  from? 
I  bet  you  don't  smile  like  that  for  just  anyone.  All  my 

friends  left,  can  you  give  me  a  ride  home?  I  think  we  had  a  class 

together  last  spring. 

In  many  cases  this  somewhat  harmless  activity 
became  a  gift  of  humor  from  one  person  to  another.  This  also 

forced  some  to  be  the  brunt  of  laughter.  Some  pick  ups 
resulted  in  later  embarrassment  on  the  part  of  the 
picker     upper.  Such  incidents  also  gave  the  victim 

something  to  smile  in  reflection  over  when  they  would  later 

see  that  person  on  campus. 
Pick  up  lines  somehow 
seemed  more  humorous 
when  viewed  in  the  daylight 
of  Landis  Green  than  when 
attempted  in  the  dark  drunkenness  of  a  bar. 

So. .  .what's  your  major?  Where  are  you  from? 

I  just  had  to  come  over  and  say  "hello."  Do  you  mind

if  l  sit  here?  If  I  told  you  that  I  loved  you,  would  you  believe  me? 
Well,  I  do. 

People  went  to  great  lengths  to  perfect  the  ultimate 
pickup  line.  Sometimes,  without  considering  that  they  could 
actually  be  humiliated,  a  person  would  try  a  pickup  for  other 
reasons.  One  common  reason  seemed  to  be  a  dare.  A  night 
out  with  friends  sometimes  paved  the  way  for  a  dare,  a  dare 
that  could  either  leave  someone  with  a  new  friend  or  out  in 
the  cold. 

So. .  .what's  your  major?  Where  are  you  from? 

Have  I  met  you  somewhere  before?  You're  the  kind  of 
girl  I  would  love  for  my  mom  to  meet.  You  don't  even  need  make- 
up. You're  gorgeous  just  the  way  you  are. 

One  night  at  a  club,  junior  Dave  Keith  found 
himself  in  such  a  predicament. 

"A  friend  of  mine  dared  me  to  go  up  to  this  girl  and 
say,  'Hi,  my  name  is  Lonely.'  The  girl  just  looked  at  me  and 
said,  'Hi,  I'm  taken.'  All  I  could  do  was  walk  away,"  Keith 
said. 

So. .  .what's  your  major?  Where  are  you  from? 

You  look  great.  But  you  would  look  better  by  my  side. 

The  1984  blockbuster  film  "Top  Gun"  starring  Tom 
Cruise  and  Kelly  McGillis  offered  a  memorable,  if  not 
somewhat  fantastic,  instance  where  a  very  public  pickup 
actually  worked.  In  the  unforgettable  scene,  Cruise  and  his 
co-pilot  (played  by  Anthony  Edwards)  sang  the  Righteous 
Brothers  hit,  "You've  Lost  that  Lovin'  Feelin' ,"  in  a  room  full 
of  people  at  the  Officer's  Club. 

So. .  .what's  your  major?  Where  are  you  from? 

I  would  love  to  spend  the  rest  of  my  life  with  you .  1  could 
make  all  your  dreams  come  true . 

However,  things  did  not  always  have  a  Hollywood 
ending.  Very  rarely  did  someone  meet  their  Tom  Cruise  or 
Kelly  McGillis  in  Poor  Paul's,  Po'  Boys  or  history  class. 
Those  one  in  a  million  times  that  it  did  happen  that  way 
offered  hope  to  those  still  searching  for  the  right  person. 

Most  students  found  their  significant  other  when 
they  were  least  expecting  it  or  in  the  most  surprising 
places.  And  someone  had  to  break  the  ice  and  make  the  first 
move. 

So.,  .what's  your  major?  Where  are  you  from?

Southgate  Campus  Centre  offers 
students  an  alternative  in  dorm 


IVING 


y  i  a  n  y  students 
ppreciate  the  variety 
nd  close  location  of 
estaurants    that 


he  brick  building  fits 
in  well  with  the 
luildings  on  campus, 
he  parking  garage  was 
ocated  behind  the 
|ctual  dormitory. 


"The  location  is 
great;  I  like  it  a  lot," 
freshman  Tim  Wadsworth 
said,  regarding  Southgate 
Campus  Centre. 

Southgate  looked 
absolutely  complete  on 
that  late  August  morning, 
nestled  between  the  Sweet 
Shop  and  the  Chi  Omega 
sorority  house.  It  was  quite 
a  change  of  scenery  from 
the  Phyrst  bar  that  once 
stood  on  the  same  lot. 

The  centre 
advertised  luxury  housing 
at  its  finest  and  included 
maid  and  linen  service, 
game  rooms,  computer 
hook-ups,  a  parking  garage, 
a  full  food  court,  retail 
shops  and  more. 

Southgate,  however, 
was  the  center  of 
controversy  since  it  opened 
its  doors.  The  bookstore, 
retail  space,  non  alcoholic 
bar,  basketball  and 
volleyball  courts  were  still  under  construction  when  the 
centre  opened  for  residents. 

Developer  for  the  project,  Kent  Deeb,  filed  for 
protection  in  federal  bankruptcy  court  from  creditors 
seeking  almost  $2  million  in  outstanding  debts.  Only  a 
last  ditch  $550,000  effort  from  the  project's  rainy  day  funds 
allowed  Southgate  to  purchase  such  necessities  as  shower 
curtains.  The  FBI  and  state  comptroller's  office  later 
investigated  aspects  of  the  project's  financing. 

At  the  beginning  of  the  University's  fall 
semester,  Southgate  stood  at  about  a  58  percent  occupancy 
rate,  according  to  Director  of  Sales  Ed  Xanders.  Within 
the  next  two  months,  occupancy  rates  increased  and

almost  70  percent  of  the  rooms  were  filled.  In  addition  to 
the  expected  roommate  difficulties,  Xanders  said  he 
credited  the  Florida  Clean  Air  Act  with  encouraging 
many  of  his  new  residents  to  make  the  move  to  Southgate. 

"It's  amazing  how  many  people  are  moving  out  of 
dorms  because  of  the  new  statewide  policy  banning 
smoking  in  the  rooms,"  Xanders  said.  "Our  entire  building 
is  smoke-free  except  for  the  private  residence  rooms.  We 
are  a  private  facility  and  we're  not  governed  by  the 
Board  of  Regents  so  the  Act  had  no  effect  on  our 
facility." 

Many  residents  were  angered  that  the  retail 
space  was  still  not  completed  when  they  moved  in. 

"There  are  supposed  to  be  some  extras  that  we 
don't  have,"  resident  Tara  Thoman  said. 

However,  Xanders  said  he  expected  completion 
in  the  spring. 

"The  retail  space  isn't  going  to  be  here  for  a 
while,"  Jessica  Pova,  chair  of  the  social  committee,  said. 
"Maybe  we  shouldn't  have  had  to  pay  as  much  since  the 
amenities  weren't  all  ready." 

Many  residents  chose  to  live  at  Southgate  for 
security  reasons.  Southgate  had  security  guards  24  hours  a 
day  and  residents  had  to  have  their  Southgate 
identification  card  to  be  admitted  to  the  upper  portions  of 
the  building. 

Visitors  were  to  be  accompanied  by  a  resident  at 
all  times.  There  were  also  video  monitors  of  the  parking 
garage  which  were  constantly  monitored  by  security 
personnel. 

"The  parking  garage  is  nice,"  Pova  said.  "As  a 
freshman,  there  is  no  place  else  that  I  could  park  that 
would  be  close  to  my 
housing.  They 
thought  the  safety 
precautions  through 
very  well." 

Resident  Terry  Warner  agreed. 

"Even  though  it's  kind  of  a  hassle,  I  really  feel 
safe  here,"  Warner  said. 

Residents  of  Southgate  said  that  communication

was  a  problem  when  the  centre  first  opened  and 
the  management  agreed  that  it  had  been  a 
difficulty  that  needed  to  be  improved. 

"At  first  there  was  really  a  problem 
with  communication,"  Director  of  Residents 
Allison  Johns  said.  "But  now  that  residents 
know  who  to  complain  to,  communication  has 
opened  up.  The  management  is  really  trying  to 
work  with  the  residents  and  the  hall 
government." 

Southgate  established  a  hall 
government  in  the  fall  and  Vice  President  Chris 
Reichert  said  he  felt  the  management  was 
dealing  with  complaints  well.     He  cited  an 


FROM  PAGE  41 

incident  involving  a  higher  cost  for  the  use  of 
laundry  equipment.  According  to  Reichert, 
when  residents  complained  and  made  a  valid 
case,  the  costs  were  brought  down  to 
comparable  levels. 

"I  got  involved  to  help  change 
things,"  Reichert  said.  "I  don't  really  agree 
with  the  gripes  people  have;  I'm  pretty 
satisfied  with  it.  I  look  at  what  other  people 
on  campus  have  and  it  can't  compare  to  what 
we  have." 

Thoman  said  that  although  Southgate 
had  a  lot  of  good  ideas,  there  were  still  things 
that  needed  to  be  worked  out.

College  students  consume  an 
estimated  430  million  gallons 
of  beer,  wine  and  liquor  per 
year,  spending  $4.2  billion 

RINKING 


1  he  road  trip  to  Notre 
Dame  was  a  popular 
one  this  year.  Amid 
the  loss,  friends  found 
the  time  to  share  a 
drink. 


Fraternity  parties  lit 
up  the  night  during 
their  fall  rush. 
Problems  over  the  past 
years  led  to  more  strict 
regulations. 


An  alcohol  survey  of 
American  campuses 
revealed  the  nature,  scope 
and  consequence  of 
collegiate  drinking  for  the 
first  time.  It  found  that 
college  students  drank  an 
average  of  5.11  drinks  per 
week  while  7.8  percent  of 
students  knocked  hack  16 
or  more  drinks  per  week. 

Forty-five  percent  of 
students  reported  using 
alcohol  on  a  weekly  or  more 
frequent  basis. 

Officials  said  that  the 
study,  Alcohol  and  Drugs  on 
American  College 
Campuses:  Use, 
Consequences  and 
Perceptions  of  the  Campus 
Environment,  was  the  most 
comprehensive  analysis  of 
chemical  dependency 
among  young  people. 

The  study,  which 
drew  its  findings  from  a 
database  of  56,361  students 
on  78  campuses  from  1989-1991  was  the  most  extensive 
ever  done  on  collegiate  drinking.  The  survey  was  co- 
authored  by  Cheryl  A.  Presley  of  Southern  Illinois 
University  and  Philip  W.  Meilman  of  The  College  of 
William  ek  Mary. 

The  study  found  that  college  students  in  the 
South  consumed  an  average  of  3.9  drinks  per  week  and  35 
percent  reported  hinging  in  the  two  weeks  prior  to  the 
study.  Binge  drinking  was  when  an  individual  indulged  in 
five  or  more  drinks  in  one  sitting.  Forty-two  percent  of  the 
students  surveyed  nationwide  admitted  recent  binge 
drinking  prior  to  the  survey.

report  recent  binge  drinking,  we  cannot  pretend  that 
alcohol  abuse  is  just  an  isolated  or  infrequent  event," 
Secretary  of  Education  William  R.  Riley  said.  "The  fact  is 
far  too  many  students  are  jeopardizing  their  heath  and 
safety,  as  well  as  that  of  others." 

Nationally,  it  was  found  that  underage  college 
drinkers  consumed  more  alcohol  and  suffered  more 
blackouts,  hangovers  and  problems  with  their  drinking 
than  students  of  legal  age.  Illegal  drinkers  had  the  hardest 
struggle  with  alcohol,  the  report  disclosed,  pointing  to  the 
fact  that  they  are  twice  as  likely  to  have  been  victims  of 
sexual  assault  or  to  have  taken  sexual  advantage  of  others. 

"Underage  drinkers  aren't  as  careful  and  don't 
handle  alcohol  as  well  as  older  students,"  Meilman  said. 

This  same  group  was  twice  as  likely,  when  drunk, 
to  have  taken  part  in  more  violent  acts  and  destruction  of 
property.  According  to  the  findings,  underagers  were 
more  likely  to  suffer  acute  physical  problems,  suicidal 
moods  and  actions  and  poor  academic  performance. 

The  report  noted  that  gender  differences  in 
alcohol  abuse  were  important  factors  for  structuring 
rehabilitation  and  counseling  services.  This  was  the  first 
time  that  such  findings  were  brought  to  light  for 
consideration.  The  survey  documented  that  males  were 
heavier  drinkers  than  females. 

One  of  the  study's  most  disturbing  findings  was 
the  discovery  that  about  one-third  of  the  students  said  they 
had  driven  while  intoxicated  at  least  once  in  the  year 
before  the  survey.  However,  less  than  two  percent 
reported  that  the  police  had  stopped  them  from  driving 
while  intoxicated. 

Nationwide,  the  most  frequent  drinkers  on 
college  campuses  earned  the  lowest  grade  point  averages. 
Students  who  reported 
D  and  F  GPAs 
consumed  an  average 
of  1 1  drinks  per  week, 
while  students  who  earned  A's  averaged  only  three  drinks. 

"Campus  officials  and  students  themselves  can 
now  clearly  assess  the  scope  and  consequences  of 
substance  abuse,"  co-author  Presley  said.

"Car  keys. ..where  are  my  car  keys!? 

"That's  it,  I'm  outta  here!" 

If  this  sounded  in  any  way  familiar  it  was  because,  for 
one  reason  or  another,  you  were  one  of  the  many  who  hopped 
into  their  cars  and  drove  off  to  some  exotic  destination  far 
from  the  confines  of  Tallahassee. 

Although  the  sites  of  away  football  games  were  most 
popular  among  these  locales,  there  were  many  more 
motivating  factors  to  get  up  and  go  in  the  Sunshine  State. 
The  fabulous  mecca  of  Mickey,  more  commonly  known  as 
Walt  Disney  World,  in  Central  Florida  provided  many 
students  with  a  tempting  diversion. 

"I  visit  Orlando  at  least  three  times  a  year  to  go  to 
one  of  the  theme  parks,"  senior  Andrea  Gray  said.  "I'm  drawn 
by  some  mystical  force,  I  guess.   I  just  love  visiting  there." 

The  beaches  of  any  coast  were  also  popular 
destinations  and  could  reached  by  driving  in  virtually 
any  direction.  Alligator  Point  and  Panama  City  were 
most  frequented  by  day-trippers,  while  beaches  in 
Jacksonville  and  South  Florida  were  targeted  by  weekend 
warriors. 

"I  need  the  sun  and  sand  to  recharge  my  batteries 
after  a  tough  week  of  school,  so  on  sunny  weekends  I'll  usually 
take  off  for  P.C.  Beach  for  a  day  or  so,"  senior  Jennifer 
Reynolds  said. 

February  meant  only  one  thing  for  students  needing 
an  excuse  to  get  away:  Mardi  Gras. 

The  allure  of 
beads,  beer  and  naked 
people  dancing  in  the 
streets  was  enough  to 
bring  out  even  the 
quietest  homebodies. 

"I'll  never  forget  Mardi  Gras. ..of  course  I  can't

remember  it  but  I  was  told  that  I  had  a  great  time  and  I 
made  it  through  the  weekend  without  having  to  be  taken 
to  the  hospital  or  jail,"  junior  Dave  Hamilton  said.  "It  was 
the  best  weekend  I  never  had." 

New  Orleans  was  an  easy  escape  for  students  also 
because  of  its  proximity  to  Tallahassee  and  its  lowered 
drinking  age.  It  was  a  popular  trek  just  a  few  hours  down 
Interstate  10. 

Neighbors  to  the  north  welcomed  students  with 
open  arms.  The  Peach  State's  border  was  only  minutes 
from  campus  and  was  a  great  spot  for  an  impromptu  picnic. 

A  few  hours  further  lay  Atlanta,  home  of  the  free 
and  land  of  the  Braves.  As  the  closest  major  league 
baseball  team  to  Tallahassee,  the  Atlanta  Braves  were 
adopted  as  the  surrogate  home  team  among  sports  fans  on 
campus. 

"After  coming  to  Florida  State  and  being  a 
Seminole  fan  it  seemed  like  the  next  logical  step,"  senior 
Tom  Watson  said.  "After  all,  the  Braves  and  the 
Seminoles  have  a  lot  in  common,  the  highlight  of  which 
is  Deion  Sanders." 

Of  course,  the  city  offered  much  more  than  just 
baseball.  Great  shopping,  food  and  night  life  added  to 
Atlanta's  allure. 

Many  students  found  that  it  was  convenient  to 
visit  there  because  they  could  stay  free  with  friends  who 
were  attending  one  of  the  many  schools  there. 

"I'm  poor  and  proud,"  senior  Audrey  Kayne  said. 
"When  I  feel  the  need  to  take  off  somewhere  I  go  to 
Atlanta  and  stay  with  my  best  friend  in  her  dorm  at 
Georgia  Tech." 

Of  course,  the  ultimate,  end-all,  be-all  road  trip 
had  absolutely  nothing  to  do  with  exotic  locales, 
alcoholic  beverages,  or  sporting  events.  It  was  a  trip  home 
to  Mom  and  Pop. 

The  home  cooked  meals  were  paradise  enough 
for  those  who  blazed  the  trail  back  to  the  homestead.  If 
one  could  survive  the  flurry  of  questions  from  relatives 
and  the  endless  inquisition  about  grades,  you  may  actually 
have  decided  to  return  there... someday.

According  to  Inside  Edge, 
University  students  really 
know  how  to 


ARTYHARD 


Local  bars  overfill  with 
students  every  weekend. 
During  the  evening  of 
Ithe  Miami  victory, 
students  gathered  in 
celebration. 


/uring  the  Miami 
game,  the  crowd  does 
the  wave.  These  were 
the  biggest  waves  that 
Tallahassee  saw. 


Every  club  and  bar 
within  the  Tallahassee  radius 
featured  a  drink  special  geared 
toward  attracting  college 
students  of  legal  age. 
Students  went  out,  consumed 
more  than  their  body  could 
handle  and  woke  up  the  next 
morning  with  a  throbbing 
headache.  Classes  were 
skipped  because  students 
were  too  busy  hugging  the 
toilet  and  trying  to  remember 
who  they  had  danced  with  the 
previous  night. 

When  the  October 
polls  came  in,  the 
University  was  crowned 
the  nation's  best  party 
school.  Not  only  did  the 
University  have  an 
exceptional  athletic 
reputation  to  showcase  but 
this  recognition  added  the 
number  one  fun  factor  to 
University  system 
contributions.  The  poll 
was  taken  by  Inside  Edge,  a 
Northeastern  magazine  produced  by  students  attending 
Harvard  University.  According  to  the  poll,  the  University 
had  all  the  makings  of  a  student's  paradise. 

"With  perfect  weather,  women  and  waves, 
Florida  State  is  a  full-time  party  for  its  30,000 
undergraduates,"  the  article  said.  "And  with  the  year 
round  frenzy  that  follows  the  Seminoles  as  they  compete  at 
the  national  level  in  basketball,  baseball  and  football, 
Florida  State  undergraduates  rarely  have  a  moment  to 
themselves." 

The  reviews  from  the  University  community 
were  mixed.  Some  took  the  title  as  a  compliment,  while 
others  did  not  appreciate  the  stereotype  it  placed  upon  the

University's  reputation  as  a  prestigious  institution.  The 
article  suggested  that  the  University's  lenient  graduation 
requirements  made  it  easy  for  students  to  party  their  way 
through  school  and  still  receive  a  degree.  Dispelling  this 
"negative  image"  was  one  of  President  D'Alemberte's  first 
priorities  when  elected  to  office  in  early  December.  He 
said  he  thought  the  University  needed  to  challenge 
students  to  do  more.  Vice  President  for  Student  Affairs 
Jon  Dalton  agreed  with  the  president  and  said  the  survey 
was  immature. 

"I  think  these  surveys  are  ludicrous  to  begin 
with,"  Dalton  said.  "They  are  not  scientific. ..but  they  can 
be  powerfully  negative.  They  convey  messages  that  are 
very  misleading  when  they  portray  students  as  being  not 
serious  about  academics." 

Many  students  argued  the  inaccuracy  of  the 
article  viewing  the  University  as  a  tropical  paradise.  The 
Gulf  of  Mexico  was  quite  a  drive  from  Tallahassee,  not  to 
mention  there  were  no  waves  for  surfing  except  when  the 
occasional  hurricane  blew  by.  Junior  Shannon  Hopkins 
said  she  was  amused  by  what  the  article  said  about  the 
perfect  weather  and  women. 

"If  only  they  could  visit  Tallahassee  in  a  month 
like  August  when  it  is  so  hot  you  cannot  breathe.  We  wish 
we  had  the  sea  breeze  and  waves  they  spoke  of,"  Hopkins 
said.  "As  far  as  the  perfect  women... what  about  all  of  the 
attractive  men  they  never  included  in  the  article?" 

Despite  the  controversy  the  article  caused,  many 
students  seemed  to  secretly  take  pride  in  what  the  polls 
showed.  The  men  from  Harvard  made  the  University  look 
like  the  best  place  on  earth  for  those  four  or  five  years 
students  knew  as  college.  Not  only  were  Seminoles  the 
best  in  sports  but  students  also  knew  how  to  have  a  good 
time  and  study. 

"College  is 
what  you  make  of  it, 
no  matter  where  you 
attend.  You  can  either  study  and  make  good  grades  or  you 
can  party  your  education  away,"  senior  Brian  Treby  said.  "I 
think  it's  good  to  have  a  balance  between  the  two  and 
Florida  State  offers  the  best  of  both  worlds."

Students  find  creative 
ploys  to  avoid  paying 
attention  in  class.  Here 
are  the 


OPTEN 


10.  Sleep. 

Maybe  it  was  an  8  a.m.  class.  Maybe  it  was  a  2  p.m. 
class.  Regardless,  the  monotone  drone  of  your  professor's 
voice  slowly  (or,  in  most  cases,  quickly)  lulled  you  to  sleep. 

"The  most  restful  sleep  that  I've  ever  gotten  has 
been  in  my  8  o'clock  class  in  Fisher  Lecture  Hall,"  sophomore 
Carrie  Pollock  said. 
9.  Doodle. 

The  artist  within  you  had  always  been  screaming  to 
be  set  free.  Now  it  had  its  chance,  unleashed  on  the 
unsuspecting  desks  of  your  classroom.  Whether  it  was  your 
fraternity's  or  sorority's  letters  or  a  less-than-flattering 
rendition  of  your  professor,  in  your  eyes  it  was  a  masterpiece. 
8.  Balance  your  checkbook. 

A  refreshing  change  from  analytical  trigonometry, 
this  task  required  only  the  knowledge  of  basic  arithmetic. 

"I'm  so  busy  that  the  only  time  I  have  to  balance  my 
checkbook  is  during  my  classes,"  senior  Julie  Hiipakka  said. 
"If  I  didn't  have  so  many  boring  lectures,  I'd  probably  bounce 
a  lot  more  checks." 
7.  Visualize  your  professor  naked. 

Admit  it.  You  had  thought  about  it  once  or  twice. 
The  attraction  had  been  obvious  ever  since  you  had  laid  eyes 
on  the  instructor.. .and  then  you  woke  up.  You  were  still  stuck 
back  at  reason  number  ten!  The  thought  may  have  crossed 
your  mind,  however,  but  only  as  a  means  of  retaining  your 
sanity  and  keeping  yourself  entertained  during  such  a  boring 
lecture.  Anything  more  was  too  hideous  to  even  consider. 
6.  Compose  a  symphony. 

You  didn't  have  to  be  a  music  major  to  accomplish 
this  one,  just  creative.  A  tune  may  have  just  popped  into  your 
head  and  you  ran  with  it. 

Heck,  if  the  Breakfast  Club  gang  could  do  it,  then 

you  could  too.  After 
all,  Mozart  was  barely 
into  double  digits 
when  he  composed  his 
first  symphony. 
5.  Fantasize  about  being  Charlie  Ward. 

You  could  do  a  lot  worse  than  being  the  University's 


By  Todd  Kimmelman 


first  Heisman  Trophy  winner  in  history. 

"I've  always  wondered  what  it  would  be  like  to  be 
a  nationally-recognized  star  athlete,  especially  one  as 
talented  as  Charlie,"  sophomore  Jennifer  Metts  said. 

The  two-sport  athlete  was  the  envy  of  all  who 
watched  him  pick  up  the  prestigious  award  on  Dec.  1 1, 
1993. 
4.  Write  a  best-selling  book. 

If  former  President  Bush's  dog,  Millie,  could  do 
it,  anyone  could.  Any  subject  would  do. 

From  the  torrid  love  affair  that  you  had  with  your 
professor  in  your  freshman  year  to  tips  for  surviving  the 
camp-outs  for  football  tickets.  The  longer  you  had  been 
in  college,  the  more  material  you  had  to  work  with. 
3.  Estimate  the  weight  of  the  person  sitting  next  to 
you. ..and  then  ask  if  you're  right. 

This  could  have  been  the  ultimate  test  of 
restraint,  especially  since  the  person  next  to  you  looked 
like  Dunkin  Donuts'  best  customer.  It  may  have  seemed 
cruel  but  the  level  was  entirely  at  your  discretion. 

"I've  always  wondered  how  those  guys  do  it  at 
carnivals,"  sophomore  Veronica  Nigro  said,  "I  guess  they 
must  have  been  to  a  lot  of  boring  lectures." 
2.  Read  all  2000  pages  of  the  North  American  Free 
Trade  Agreement. 

This  accomplishment  would  undoubtedly  rank 
you  among  the  elite.  Aside  from  the  unfortunate  soul  who 
had  to  typeset  the  behemoth,  you  probably  would  have 
been  only  the  second  person  to  read  it  cover  to  cover. 

"So  many  people  have  so  much  criticism  about 
NAFTA  that  I  wonder  how  many  of  them  actually  read  it, 
especially  Ross  Perot,"  senior  Elizabeth  Perez  said. 
1.  Contemplate  the  meaning  of  life. 

Life,  the  universe  and  everything. 

What  did  a  4-0  GPA  mean  in  the  worldly  scheme 
of  things  anyway? 

Was  winning  the  National  Championship  in 
football  the  ultimate  reward? 

"Who  cares!  I'm  graduating  and  the  'Noles  are 
number  one!"  senior  Jennifer  Shaw  said.

changed  midstream.  Sophomores 
tried  on  every  major  to  see  how 
they  fit  while  transfer  students 
made  campus  their  own.

The  School  of  Theatre 
celebrated  its  20th  anniversary 
with  a  flare  and  a  standard  of 
excellence  that  exemplified  what 
the  students  had  learned 
throughout  the  years. 

On  Sept.  28,  1973,  the 
Florida  Board  of  Regents  supported 
the  promotion  of  the  Department 
of  Theatre  to  its  own  school.  The 
theatre  department  had  a  long 
history  of  successful  theatrical 
performances,  originating  from  the 
West  Florida  Seminary  in  1857. 
The  School  of  Theatre's  first 
performance  was  "Our  Town," 
under  the  direction  of  the  first 
dean,  Richard  Fallon. 

Fallon  remained  the  dean 
for  10  years,  exemplifying 
leadership  that  resulted  in  the 
renaming  of  the  Mainstage 
Theatre  to  the  Fallon  Theatre  in 
1989.  The  present  dean,  Gil  Lazier, 
succeeded  Fallon  in  1983  and 
continued  to  open  the  doors  for 
students  and  teachers  to  the 
community  of  live  theatrical 
performance. 

"I  am  proud  to  celebrate 
the  20th  Anniversary  of  the 
founding  of  the  School  of  Theatre 
by  working  with  the  new  capable 
leader  who  will  take  the  School 
into  the  21st  Century,  Gil  Lazier, 
and  the  talented  students  who  are 
present,"  Dean  Emeritus  Fallon 
said. 

The  School  of  Theatre 
encompassed  three  active  and 
separate  live  stages  throughout  the 
University's  campus.  The 
Mainstage  (Fallon)  Theatre 
resided  in  the  Fine  Arts  Building, 
housing  the  four  major  live 
performances  of  the  year.  The 
smaller  Augusta  Conradi  Studio 
Theatre  in  the  Williams  building 
sat  about  half  the  number  of  people 
as    the    Fallon   Theatre    and 

CONTINUED 


presented  two  productions  per 
semester.  1987  saw  the  creation  of 
"The  Lab,"  a  small  150  seat 
theatre,  which  allowed  for  the 
cultivation  of  experimental 
performances  by  faculty  and 
students. 

Aside  from  the  sites  of 
theatrical  performance  on  campus, 
the  School  of  Theatre  extended 
down  the  state  to  Sarasota,  where 
the  FSU/Asolo  Conservatory  for 
Actor  Training  attracted  many 
promising  performers.  In  addition 
to  its  extension  in  the  state  of 
Florida,  the  School  of  Theatre 
maintained  cultural  awareness  by 
participating  in  international 
exchange  programs  in  several 
foreign  countries.  The  most 
successful  has  been  the  exchange 
program  with  the  Moscow  Art 
Theatre  School,  which  entailed 
two  American/Russian  programs. 
With  its  active  involvement  in 
various  classical  masterpieces, 
contemporary  theatre  and  musical 
theatre,  the  School  has  maintained 
a  distinct  excellence  which 
resulted  in  the  ranking  by  US  News 
and  World  Report  as  one  of  the  10 
best  graduate  theatre  programs  in 
America. 

The  year  of  anniversary 
celebration  brought  about  some 
new  additions  to  the  faculty  as  well 
as  special  events  that 
complimented  the  four  Mainstage 
productions.  The  first  production 
of  the  season  was  "Carousel," 
which  marked  the  return  of 
alumnus  Michael  Piontek  in  the 
leading  role  of  Billy  Bigelow. 
Piontek  earned  his  MFA  in  acting 
from  the  FSU/Asolo  Conservatory. 
His  success  as  an  actor  included 
many  television  appearances  and 
roles,  especially  on  "Knots 
Landing."  He  most  recently 
completed  a  successful  role  in  the

The  Career  Center 
offered  tremendous  resources  for 
any  student  interested  in  finding  a 
major  or  career. 

The  Center  provided  a 
process  by  which  students  could 
come  in  at  any  phase  in  their 
college  career  to  receive  help  and 
information. 

"We  can  find  something 
to  offer  any  student,  any  step  of  the 
way,"  Career  Center  Director  Dr. 
Jeff  Garis  said.  "Whether  they  are 
freshmen  or  graduating  seniors  we 
can  help." 

Students  having  a  hard 
time  finding  where  their  interests 
lay  or  what  major  to  choose  could 
find  helpful  career  advisors 
available  for  answering  questions 
at  anytime  through  the  Curricular- 
Career  Information  Service. 

The  students  were  issued 
self-assessment  activities  to  test 
which  skills  and  interests  suited 
them,  such  as  self-inventory  tests, 
computer-based  guides  and  check 
lists.  Various  books  and  brochures 
also  offered  information  about 
careers  as  well  as  special  workshops 
and  seminars. 

Once  settled  into  a  major, 
students  found  the  Career 
Experience  Opportunities  Office 
very  useful  in  contacting  an 
internship  and/or  placing  them 
into  an  internship. 

This  provided  the 
students  with  a  chance  to  test  their 
decisions  about  a  certain  major  by 
giving  them  the  opportunity  to  use 
what  they  had  learned.  It  also  gave 
them  a  head  start  in  finding 
employment  after  graduation  as 
well  as  credentials  to  add  to  their 
resumes. 

The  Career  Placement 
Service  was  perhaps  the  most 
widely  used  resource  at  the  Career 
Center.  CPS  primarily  specialized 


in  helping  graduating  seniors  find 
employment  or  post  graduate 
schools.  The  Resource  Library 
provided  computer  systems, 
handouts  and  advisement  for  those 
who  were  going  on  to  graduate 
school. 

Helping  students  obtain 
job  searching  skills,  critiquing 
resumes  and  providing  individual 
interviews  with  potential 
employers  were  some  of  the  tasks  of 
the  CPS. 

In  addition,  literature  and 
job  listings  on  current  job  openings 
were  also  helpful.  Seminole 
Futures  Career  Exposition,  an 
event  each  semester  for  companies 
to  come  and  recruit  seniors,  was  the 
one  of  the  biggest  events  for  CPS. 
It  educated  students  on  the 
availability  of  entry-level  positions 
and  the  character  of  participating 
companies'. 

"Having  the  information 
at  my  fingertips  enabled  me  to 
compare  company  approaches.  I 
decided  I  really  liked  John 
Hancock's  philosophy  on  sales," 
senior  Jesse  Christiansen  said. 
"This  knowledge  gave  me  more 
confidence  and  I'm  sure  my 
impression  was  more  memorable." 

The  task  of  choosing  a 
major  and  sticking  with  it, 
obtaining  an  internship  and  then 
making  definite  plans  for  the  future 
after  graduation  was  certainly  not 
easy. 

It  required  much 
patience,  commitment  and 
determination  by  each  student. 
The  Career  Center  was  the  place  to 
make  a  dent  in  all  of  the  chaos. 

"There  are  many  routes  to 
take,"  Career  Center  Associate 
Director  Allan  McPeak  said.  "In 
fact,  it  can  get  pretty  confusing.  A 
job  search  through  the  Career 
Center  is  not  a  one  day  event."

Cuts  in  Florida's 
university  system  budget  have 
become  common  over  recent 
years.  Universities  across  the  state 
lost  a  great  deal  of  money  and 
faculty  members  due  to  these  cuts. 

Due  to  the  cuts,  the 
University  has  cut  back  on  classes, 
closed  off  smaller  majors  and 
reduced  positions  across  the  state. 

In  September  of  1991, 
students  and  faculty  members  from 
across  the  state  staged  a  march  to 
the  Capitol. 

The  purpose  of  the 
demonstration  was  to  get  the 
attention  of  legislators  that 
continually  cut  the  education 
budget  in  Florida. 

The  cut  in  1 99 1  was  not  a 
solitary  event.  This  year  the  state 
university  system  saw  more  of  the 
same  treatment. 

"It  was  a  very  positive 
experience  to  see  the  faculty  and 
students  working  together  for  a 
common  goal,"  senior  Julie  Hiipika 
said.  "What  the  legislators  are 
failing  to  see  is  that  cuts  will  have 
strong  repercussions." 

Florida's  state  university 
system  seemed  to  be  moving 
backwards  in  comparison  to  other 
states'  systems.  While  others  were 
moving  up  in  the  rankings,  the 
Florida  system  was  fearing  a  slip. 

The  state  of  Florida  was 
ranked  35th  in  the  nation  in 
regards  to  the  average  salary  level  of 
state  university  employees. 

In  order  to  compete  with 
universities  across  the  nation,  the 
budget  proposed  by  the  university 
system  to  the  Florida  Legislature  for 
the  1994-95  budget  year  included  a 
1 0  percent  raise  in  the  salaries  of  all 
faculty  and  staff  members. 

The  proposed  raise  was  to 
be  used  to  attempt  to  regain  the 
average   salary   level   the   state 


university  system  had  attained 
during  the  1990-91  budget  year. 
During  that  budget  year,  the  state 
was  ranked  27th  in  the  nation  in 
regards  to  the  average  salary  level  of 
state  university  employees. 

Since  then,  Florida  has 
dropped  eight  places. 
Furthermore,  the  average  salary  of 
state  employees  was  approximately 
9.7  percent  below  the  average 
salary  of  employees  at  comparable 
public  universities  across  the 
nation. 

In  addition,  associate 
professors  in  the  state  were  the 
most  behind  with  their  salaries  at 
4.2  percent  below  the  national 
average. 

"What  they  are  failing  to 
see  is  if  they  keep  cutting  salaries 
teachers  will  leave  the  state  and 
with  no  incentive  to  stay,  the  will 
drive  our  quality  of  education 
further  down,"  senior  Wendy 
Stephen  said. 

The  hoard  of  regents  was 
not  looking  to  substantially 
increase  the  salaries  of  employees, 
instead  it  was  looking  to  move  back 
to  the  27th  place  ranking. 

The  board  of  regents  did 
not  want  to  see  the  state  university 
system  slide  any  lower  in  these 
rankings.  They  realized  that  if 
something  was  not  done  soon, 
universities  throughout  the  state 
were  in  jeopardy  of  losing  quality 
faculty  members. 

Joanne  Campbell,  BOR 
human  resource  office,  reiterated 
the  general  objective  of  the  board. 

"We  are  just  trying  to 
keep  the  university  system  from 
falling  further  behind,"  Campbell 
said.

role  in  the  Mariner,  Viking  and 
Voyager  spacecraft  expeditions  to 
the  planets,  for  which  he  received 
the  NASA  Medal  for  Exceptional 
Scientific  Achievement. 

He  also  served  as 
Chairman  of  the  Division  for 
Planetary  Sciences  for  the 
American  Astronomical  Society, 
served  as  President  of  the 
Planetology  Section  of  the 
American  Association  for  the 
Advancement  of  Science  and  was 
editor  in  chief  of  Icarus,  the  leading 
professional  journal  devoted  to 
planetary  research.  However,  the 
TV  generation  remembered  him 
best  for  his  television  series, 
"COSMOS,"  which  became  the 
most  widely  watched  series  in  the 
history  of  public  television  and 
earned  Sagan  an  Emmy  and  a 
Peabody  Award. 

"Consider  this,"  Sagan 
said,  as  the  lights  dimmed, 
enveloping  the  Tallahassee/Leon 
County  Civic  Center  in  blackness, 
"we  are  the  first  generation  to  see 
the  planets." 

Projected  onto  the  movie 
theater-sized  screen  were  Mercury, 
Venus,  Earth,  Mars,  Saturn, 
Jupiter,  Uranus  and  Neptune  in 
their  natural  orbits.  Their  oranges 
and  reds  illuminated  the  room  as 
Sagan  took  the  audience  on  a 
journey   to   meet   the   ancient 


observationists  of  the  universe. 
The  audience  watched  the  sun  rise 
in  the  east  and  set  in  the  west  and 
watched  the  stars  follow  the  same 
pattern.  Five  of  these  stars, 
however,  seemed  to  wander.  The 
ancients  thought  they  were  gods 
but  today's  civilization  has  come  to 
know  known  as  the  planets. 

"Just  in  a  flash  we  have 
gone  from  ignorance  to  some 
degree  of  knowledge,"  Sagan  said. 

Upon  his  command,  the 
audience  was  landing  with  the 
Viking  craft  on  the  surface  of  Mars. 
Sagan  admitted  that  although  he 
once  believed  that  the  crew  might 
find  life  on  Mars,  his  beliefs  were 
not  confirmed.  Because  the  planet 
lacks  an  ozone  layer,  explained 
Sagan,  ultraviolet  light  strikes  the 
surface  and  destroys  organic 
molecules.

Close  to  four  billion  years 
ago,  Mars  was  a  planet  much  like

climate. 

"You  look  at  an  earth-like 
planet  like  Mars  and  you  learn  the 
dangers  of  what  stupid  things  not  to 
do  to  your  world,"  Sagan  said. 

After  the  audiences'  tour

Sagan  closed  his  lecture  with  a  final 
comment  on  extraterrestrial  life, 
"It  is  typical  for  humans  to  think 
that,  like  the  ancients,  we  are  at  the

News  of  a  national 
laboratory  dedicated  to  the  study  of 
high  field  magnetism  seized  the 
attention  of  the  scientific 
community. 

Dr.  Jack  Crow,  a  professor 
of  physics  initiated  the  University's 
involvement.  He  was  later  chosen 
as  director  of  the  laboratory.  The 
National  Science  Foundation 
accepted  proposals  from 
competing  organizations  and  the 
winning  proposal  was  rewarded 
with  a  research  grant. 

"I  felt  we  had  as  good  a 
chance  as  anybody,"  Crow  said. 

However,  only  f o ur 
months  remained  before  the  due 
date.  Time  was  running  short  and 
the  Legislature  had  yet  to  approve 
the  proposal. 

Governor  Lawton  Chiles 
shared  Crow's  enthusiasm  for  the 
project  and  the  Florida  Legislature 
agreed  that  if  the  project  was 
successful,  then  Tallahassee  would 
be  noted  in  history  as  the  front- 
runner  in  magnetism  research. 

Predictions  proved 
victorious.  The  laboratory, 
officially  known  as  The  National 
High  Magnetic  Field  Laboratory, 
occupied  290,000  square  feet  of  the 
University's  Innovation  Park. 

The  magnets  contained 
in  the  laboratory  were  the  most 
sophisticated  in  existence.  Models 
generated  magnetic  fields  from 
several  thousand  up  to  millions  of 
times  that  of  the  Earth's.  Because 
of  its  sheer  size  and  capacity,  the 
NHMFL  dwarfed  all  previous 
efforts  in  the  study  of  high  field 
research. 

During  the  next  decade, 
the  NHMFL  devoted  $300  million 
toward  to  development  and  use  of 
the  world's  largest,  most  powerful 
resistive,  hybrid  and 
superconducting    magnets. 

CONTINUED 


Though  the  results  of  this  research 
might  have  seemed  important  only 
to  intellectual  elites, 
electromagnets  produced  practical 
conveniences  including  levitated 
trains,  microwave  radar  and 
Magnetic  Resonance  Imaging  used 
in  medicine. 

Opportunities  to  improve 
on  this  existing  knowledge  were 
extended  to  scientists  in  premier 
labs  and  universities  worldwide. 
An  international  peer  review 
committee  evaluated  proposals, 
filtering  the  multitudes  of  those 
desiring  to  use  the  facility.  Up  to 
400  researchers  were  expected  to 
use  the  lab  yearly. 

A  view  into  the  atomic 
and  electronic  skeletons  of  matter 
gave  understanding  as  to  how 
rubbers  bent  and  how  metals  stood 
up  to  heat  and  corrosion.  Vast 
amounts  of  research  was  spent  on 
superconductivity.  Franz  Frieberg, 
a  graduate  student  of  Crow's,  was 
studying  the  resistance  of  ceramics 
coated  in  a  superconducting 
material. 

"By  testing  and  applying 
stress  to  various  ceramics,  perhaps 
one  type  might  be  found  which 
functioned  at  higher 
temperatures,"  Frieberg  said. 

Though  lightweight  and 
excellent  at  retaining  heat, 
ceramics  were  too  brittle  to  be  of 
practical  use.  If  a  ceramic  was 
found  to  operate  successfully  at 
room  temperature,  the  efficiency  of 
engines  made  of  metallic  materials 
would  be  improved. 

The  first  two 
appointments  to  NHMFL  were 
Nobel  Laureate  Dr.  Robert 
Schrieffer  and  Dr.  Hans  Schneider- 
Muntau,  the  leader  of  the  magnet 
development  program  at  Max 
Planck  Institute.  Both  were  leaders 
in    high-field   magnetism   and

Program  linked  the  private  sector 
with  the  lab  by  providing 
opportunities  for  firms  to  aid  in 
development.  The  Apple

Western  hemisphere,"  Janet 
Patten,  director  of  public  relations 
for  the  lab,  said. 

NHMFL  did  more  than

Professor  Eugene  Crooke  shows  the  class 
overhead  sheets  of  Shakespeare  notes.  Many 
students  were  dissappointed  that  Shakespeare 
was  no  longer  a  requirement,  as  classes  were  so 
difficult  to  get  through  registration.

"To  be  or  not  to  he, 
that     is     the     question." 

These  were  perhaps  the 
most  famous  of  Shakespeare's 
verses.  If  the  question  that  was 
being  asked  regarded  the 
University's  Shakespeare 
requirement,  the  answer  was:  not 
to  be. 

In  response  to  the  budget 
cuts  imposed  on  the  state 
university  system,  the  English 
department  was  forced  to  drop  the 
Shakespeare  requirement  from  its 
program. 

In  past  years,  English 
majors  have  been  required  to  take  a 
Shakespeare  class  in  order  to 
graduate.  However,  increasing 
numbers  of  students  and  decreasing 
amounts  of  money  forced  the 
English  department  to  reconsider 
the  requirement. 

"The  University  could 
not  require  students  to  take  a  class 
when  there  were  only  a  few  sections 
of  it  being  offered  each  semester," 
English  department  Student 
Affairs  Coordinator  Ann  Durham 
said. 

Durham  went  on  to  say 
that  although  it  would  not  be 
required,  the  class  would  still  be 
offered  for  anyone  interested  in 
taking  it. 

Typically,  two  or  three 
sections  were  offered  each  semester 
and  this  was  not  enough  to  handle 
the  constantly  increasing  number 
of  English  majors. 

In  addition,  there  were  no 
major  codes  for  English  classes,  so 
any  student  could  take  an  English 
class.  This  prevented  many  lower 
division  majors  from  picking  up  the 
class  because  higher  division  non- 
majors  were  taking  the  class  as  an 
elective.  Departments  that  used 
codes  to  restrict  non-major 
students   from   registering   for 


certain  classes  typically  only  put 
the  barrier  on  upper  level  required 
courses. 

On  the  first  day  of  class, 
there  were  always  students  sitting 
on  the  floor  and  standing  in  the 
corners,  hoping  the  professor 
would  add  them  to  the  class 
because  they  were  unable  to  pick  it 
up  through  regular  telephone 
registration. 

In  addition,  there  were 
many  students  who  were  having 
problems  graduating  because  they 
were  unable  to  pick  up  the  class 
semester  after  semester. 

Instead  of  having  to  take 
the  Shakespeare  class  to  graduate, 
English  majors  were  required  to 
take  a  British  Literature  before 
1660  class.  This  included 
Medieval  Literature,  Renaissance 
Literature,  Chaucer  or  Milton. 

Junior  English  Education 
major  Maureen  Cavanaugh  said 
she  thought  the  Shakespeare  class 
was  too  important  to  miss. 

"I  just  can't  imagine  being 
an  English  major  and  not  having  to 
take  a  Shakespeare  class," 
Cavanaugh  said.  "It  is  a  shame  that 
there  aren't  enough  teachers  to 
teach  the  class  because  I  think  it  is 
a  vital  part  of  an  English  degree." 

Not  all  English  majors 
shared  Cavanaugh's  sentiments. 
Junior  English  Education  major 
Brian  Hollinsworth  agreed  with 
the  change. 

"I  think  it  is  cool," 
Hollinsworth  said.  "People  should 
not  have  to  take  the  class  if  they  do 
not  want  to." 

While  English  majors 
seeking  their  teaching  certification 
were  required  to  take  a 
Shakespeare  class,  students  that 
were  English  majors  prior  to  the 
change  had  the  choice  between  the 
two  options.

Professor  Eugene  Crooke  watches  his  students  as 
they  contemplate  Shakespeare.  The  budget  cut 
in  the  English  department  enabled  students  to 
graduate  without  ever  taking  a  Shakespeare 
course.  This  change  in  requirements  upset  many 
English  students.

Constructed  in  1921, 
Jennie  Murphree  hall  was  one  of 
the  newly  renovated  residence 
halls  on  campus.  The  hall  was 
named  for  Jennie  Murphree,  a 
native  of  Tallahassee.  Jennie 
Murphree  was  the  wife  o(  the 
Florida  State  College  for  Women's 
first  president,  Alhert  A.  Murphree 
(1905-1909). 

The  hall  served  as  an 
example  of  Jacobean  Revival 
architecture.  The  multi-million 
dollar  project  began  with  the 
renovation  of  Jennie  Murphree,  an 
all  women's  residence  hall,  and  will 
continue  over  the  course  of  the 
years  with  Bryan,  Reynolds, 
Gilchrist  and  Broward  residence 
halls. 

Jennie  Murphree  was 
closed  for  two  years  during  the 
renovation.  It  reopened  for  the  fall 
term  of  1993,  bigger  and  better 
than  ever.  There  was  a  dedication 
ceremony  held  in  honor  of  its 
opening.  The  ceremony 
essentially  consisted  of  members  of 
the  board  of  regents,  the  past  and 
present  residents  of  the  hall  and 
the  University  Women's  Choir. 
Lunch  was  served  and  residents 
gave  tours  to  the  guests. 

"I  enjoyed  the  dedication 
ceremony  and  meeting  the  oldest 
living  resident  of  the  hall,"  junior 
Natalia  Delgado  said. 

Although  a  little  more 
expensive  than  some  of  the  other 
halls,  many  students  preferred 
Jennie  Murphree.  There  was  a 
waiting  list  to  obtain  residence  in 
the  hall  due  to  the  high  number  of 
requests  by  students. 

"I  chose  this  hall  because 
of  its  central  location  and  all  of  my 
classes  are  around  it,"  sophomore 
Michelle  Quiles  said. 

The  students  felt  more 
secure  because  the  usual  building 


key  was  not  used.  Entrance  into  the 
residence  hall  was  gained  through 
the  use  of  a  card-key.  If  the  card- 
key  was  stolen  or  lost,  the  code  was 
invalidated  and  a  new  one  was 
issued. 

Since  the  interior  was 
remodeled,  residents  said  the 
rooms  were  cleaner  and  more 
appealing.  Also  the  female 
students  were  restricted  to  share 
the  bathroom  with  a  maximum  of 
only  one  other  female. 

"I  appreciate  my  own 
bathroom  in  my  bedroom," 
freshman  Sybille  Oldham  said. 

Jennie  Murphree  was 
equipped  with  335  air-conditioned 
womens  spaces.  The  hall  had 
limited  visitation  and  was  staffed 
with  a  hall  director,  seven  resident 
assistants  and  a  hall  manager. 

The  Jennie  Murphree 
hall  director,  Amie  Schiedegger  a 
doctoral  student  in  criminology, 
enjoyed  preparing  historic  events 
for  the  students  that  were  currently 
residing  in  the  hall. 

On  the  bottom  floor  of 
Jennie  Murphree,  all  oi  the 
students  were  majoring  in  a  science 
or  health  related  major.  That  floor 
was  reserved  for  the  Women  in 
Science  program. 

The  program  entailed 
special  activities  and  support 
services  for  women  majoring  in  the 
physical  sciences,  mathematics 
and  engineering.  For  instance,  if 
the  student  was  interested  in  the 
medical  field,  the  program  would 
facilitate  students  with  a  medical 
surrounding  in  which  the  student 
could  learn  and  observe. 

The  Jennie  Murphree 
hall  renovation  was  a  great  success 
for  the  women  presently  attending 
the  University  and  for  the  women 
who  will  be  attending  the 
University  in  the  future.

On  campus,  housing  for  transfer  students  is 
located  in  Cawthon  Hall.  Cawthon  Hall  was 
located  on  the  east  side  of  the  University  near 
Landis  Green  and  Strozier  Library.

case 


Each  fall,  the  University 
welcomed  thousands  of  new 
students  to  campus. 

Most  people  incorrectly 
assumed  the  unfamiliar  faces  were 
all  freshman.  Instead,  many  of  the 
new  faces  on  campus  were  those  of 
transfer  students. 

The  majority  of  transfer 
students  were  individuals  who  had 
received  an  Associate  oi  Arts 
degree  from  a  junior  college.  They 
then  came  to  the  University  to 
complete  their  course  work  for  a 
Bachelor's  degree.  Transfer 
students  also  included  the  who 
attended  a  junior  college  or  four 
year  institution  and  left  before 
earning  a  degree. 

There  were  advantages  in 
completing  the  first  two  years  of 
school  at  a  junior  college  rather 
that  at  a  larger  university. 

"Basically,  everyone  has 
to  take  the  same  classes  their 
freshman  and  sophomore  years.  I 
decided  to  take  classes  at  a  junior 
college  because  they  were  less 
expensive  than  at  a  university," 
transfer  student  Karin  Shwinger 
said. 

In  addition  to  the  cost 
benefit,  junior  colleges  offered 
smaller  classes.  This  appealed  to 
many  students  fresh  out  of  high 
school,  especially  those  who 
worried  about  their  academic 
performance  in  a  certain  subject. 

"In  high  school,  I 
struggled  with  math.  I'd  heard 
about  universities  holding  huge 
classes  in  auditoriums  and  it 
concerned  me,"  senior  Samuel 
Davis  said. 

Attending  a  smaller 
college  at  first  often  made  it 
possible  for  transfer  students  to 
enroll  into  the  college  with  a 
higher  grade  point  average.  Thus, 
in  their  junior  and  senior  years, 
transfer  students  concentrated  on 


their  field  of  study  rather  than  on 
struggling  to  raise  their  GPA. 

The  arrival  to  a  new  and 
much  larger  school  was  a  different 
transition  for  some.  The 
University  recognized  this  and 
aided  transfers  in  their  adjustment. 

Transfer  students  were 
assigned  their  own  orientation 
dates  and  the  activities  catered  to 
their  needs. 

"I  was  excited  about 
coming  to  FSU  but  I  was  also  sad 
about  leaving  my  friends.  I  worried 
that  I  would  have  trouble  meeting 
people.  At  orientation,  we  were 
placed  in  groups  and  played  silly, 
fun  games.  It  was  hard  not  to  make 
friends,"  senior  Daishara  Jimenez 
said. 

Established  as  a  residency 
for  transfer  students,  Cawthon  Hall 
became  "a  home  away  from  home" 
for  many.  In  addition  to  the  usual 
staff  of  Resident  Assistants,  the  hall 
provided  each  floor  with  a  Transfer 
Student  Assistant.  Although  a 
transfer  student  may  have 
considered  living  in  an  apartment 
Cawthon  Hall  provided  the 
stability  that  some  students 
wanted. 

T  S  A '  s  were  former 
transfer  students  and  understood 
the  anxieties  of  being  in  an 
unfamiliar  place. 

They  provided  the  new 
residents  with  information 
concerning  academics,  campus 
activities  and  locations,  the 
Tallahassee  area  and  any  other 
helpful  advice. 

Most  transfers  adjusted 
quickly  and  by  the  end  of  their  first 
semester,  felt  as  though  they  had 
been  here  for  years.

The  Bellamy  Building 
was  one  of  the  most  active  spots  on 
campus,  serving  as  the  mecca  for  all 
social  science  majors.  With  many 
students  rushing  in  and  out  of 
classrooms,  few  noticed  the 
inconspicuous  door  that  led  to  the 
Cartography  Lah.  Others  who  did 
occasionally  pass  hy  it  wondered 
what  the  word  cartography  meant. 
Indeed  it  was  a  topic  to  be  avoided. 
No  one  wanted  to  ask — "was  it 
something  I  should  know  about?" 
Did  everyone  else  (besides 
geography  majors)  know  what 
cartography  entailed?  Perhaps  if 
everyone  knew  that  the 
cartography  lab  was  an  interesting 
place  where  maps  were  drawn  and 
created,  more  attention  would  be 
given  to  it. 

In  the  early  1970's  Dr. 
Edward  Fernald,  geography 
professor,  was  the  central  figure  in 
instituting  a  cartography  lab 
within  the  University.  The  lab 
would  be  a  part  of  the  Florida 
Resources  and  Environment 
Analysis  Center  (FREAC).  The 
Cartography  lab  became  its  own 
separate  service  department  within 
the  University,  although  it  worked 
closely  on  occasion  with  the 
Geography  Department.  For  this 
reason  the  non-academic  lab  was 
housed  in  the  Bellamy  building, 
amidst  all  of  the  social  sciences. 

"It  was  this  idea  of 
providing  for  local,  state  and 
federal  governments  the  resources 
we  had  (in  correspondence  with 
geography)  at  our  disposal  that 
instituted  a  cartography  lab," 
Director  of  Cartography  Peter 
Krafft  said. 

The  traditional  aspect  of 
cartography  included  a  very  time- 
consuming  and  skilled  job  of  hand- 
cutting  geographical  line  images 
onto  film  (like  winding  rivers). 


The  whole  process  was 
photomechanical,  using  light 
tables  and  darkrooms  to  copy  the 
images  over.  The  past  10  years 
have  inevitably  brought  about  the 
role  of  the  computer  to 
cartography,  enabling  the 
transition  from  the  tedious  process 
to  a  quicker,  more  efficient  one. 
The  University  was  now  equipped 
with  computers  and  laser  printers, 
and  the  process  of  establishing 
multimedia  CD  ROM  into  the  lab 
was  developing.  While  the 
computers  saved  a  lot  of  space  and 
materials  for  the  cartographers,  the 
University's  output  devices  were 
not  big  enough.  Much  of  the  data 
had  to  be  sent  away  to  be  printed. 
In  addition  the  computers  would 
not  allow  for  the  processing  of 
anything  with  large  format. 

"We  are  presently  doing 
work  on  putting  CD  ROM  into  the 
lab  for  the  process  of  making  the 
Florida  Atlas,"  Director  of 
Cartography  Jim  Anderson  said. 
"It  is  a  multimedia  project  that  will 
be  circulated  to  all  Florida 
schools." 

It  was  a  great  effort  for  the 
cartographers  to  adapt  to  the  "new" 
computerized  way  of  making  maps. 
There  were  indeed  still  benefits  of 
using  the  traditional  methods. 
However  one  of  the  benefits  of  the 
computers  came  with  the  necessary 
updating  of  certain  maps.  Now, 
any  landscaping  changes, 
additional  roads,  bridges  or 
waterways  and  other  changes  could 
be  accomplished  easier  on  the 
computer.  Most  importantly  the 
statistical  maps  processed  by  the 
lab  were  always  changing  with  new 
data  and  information. 

Throughout  the  years 
students  have  been  able  to  become 
involved  at  the  Cartography  lab, 
learning   the    necessary   skills

The  University  offered  Directed 
Individual  Studies  and  student 
assistantships;  however  with  the 
arrival  of  computers  in  the  lab  the 
cartographers  needed  to  become 
familiarized  with  the  process  before 
training  students.  With  new 
projects  coming  to  the  University 
the  cartographers  were  hopeful  in 
once  again  hosting  students  in  the  lab. 
The  Federal  government 
had  hired  the  Cartography  Lab  to 
do  various  jobs,  including  volumes 
of  maps,  graphs  and  graphics  of 
land  water  hydraulics.  The 
University  of  Kansas,  the 
University  of  Wisconsin  and 
Florida  State  University  housed 
the  only  university  cartographic 
labs    in    the    nation.       The

cartographers  also  did  maps  for 
professors'  publications.  Perhaps 
the  most  important 
accomplishment  of  the  lab  was  the 
yearly  publication  of  the  Florida 
Health  Care  Atlas  for  HRS  and  the 
Florida  Atlas,  in  which  all  maps, 
statistical  graphs  and  graphics  were 
produced  at  the  University. 

"There  is  a  real  and 
sophisticated  talent  in  being  able 
to  transfer  table  data  into  a  map," 
Fernald  said.  "The  cartographers 
do  high  quality  work  while  training 
students,  who  in  turn  get 
experience  and  funding.  The 
President  of  National  Geographic 
was  so  impressed  with  our  Florida 
Atlas  and  the  fact  that  it  was 
produced  with  such  excellence  at  a

In  1990,  Ann  Reinking  added  motherhood  to 
her  resume.  A  year  after  her  son  was  born, 
Reinking  became  the  artistic  director  of  the 
Musical  Theater  Project  of  Tampa.

The  University  has 
always  prided  itself  on  the  hard 
work  and  dedication  its  musical 
theater  majors  brought  to  the  stage. 
The  stage  was  a  place  where  raw 
talent  could  be  transformed  into 
something  special;  sparkles 
gleamed  through  these  diamonds 
in  the  rough.  Perhaps  the  visions  of 
stardom  and  making  it  big  in  show 
business  became  a  little  more 
defined  for  musical  theater  majors 
during  spring  semester .  Those  who 
dreamt  of  Broadway  becoming 
their  future  place  of  business  now 
had  an  opportunity  to  learn  the 
tools  and  tricks  of  the  trade.  They 
had  the  best  Broadway  had  to  offer, 
they  had  the  guidance  of  Ann 
Reinking. 

The  theatre  department 
was  fortunate  enough  to  be  the  host 
of  Reinking's  talent,  experience 
and  time  for  six  weeks.  The  actor, 
dancer,  singer  and  choreograher 
came  to  the  University  to  occupy 
the  Hoffman  Eminent  Scholar 
Chair  in  theater.  Reinking  was  the 
eigth  recipient  of  the  Chair,  named 
after  the  bequest  of  $600,000  from 
the  estate  of  Maximillian  and 
Marion  Hoffman.  A  grant  of 
$400,000  was  added  from  the 
Florida  Legislature  to  make  the 
endowment  one  million  dollars. 
The  Chair  was  established  after  the 
deaths  of  Mr.  and  Mrs.  Hoffman. 
The  benevolent  couple  shared  a 
love  of  theater  and  visited  Florida 
often.  They  wanted  to  see  the 
future  of  dramatics  well  established 
in  Florida. 

"The  Hoffman  Chair  has 
created  a  legacy  for  excellence," 
Dean  of  the  School  of  Theatre  Gil 
Lazier  said,  "setting  a  standard  for 
the  creation  of  subsequent 
Eminent  Scholar  Chairs." 

Reinking  became 
established  as  one  of  the  most 


talented  and  accomplished 
entertainers,  with  a  repertoire 
impressive  enough  to  win  her  well- 
deserved  fame.  The  talented 
woman  started  dancing  at  the  age 
of  11  and  continued  until  age  18 
when  she  went  to  Broadway  to 
break  into  the  business.  She 
seemed  oblivious  to  the  possible 
trials  and  uncertainties  she  might 
encounter  trying  to  establish  a 
name  for  herself  in  New  York  City. 

"All  the  awful  terrible 
things  mothers  tell  you  about  New 
York — the  dirt,  the  danger,  the 
decadence — simply  flew  over  my 
head,"  Reinking  said.  "I  was  like 
Mr.  Magoo  driving  right  on 
through  it." 

Obviously,  Reinking  had 
made  her  mark  on  Broadway,  as  her 
list  of  credentials  grew  with  her 
fame  over  the  years.  Her  work 
included  "Fiddler  on  the  Roof," 
"Cabaret,"  "Pippin,"  and  "A 
Chorus  Line."  She  received  Tony 
nominations  for  her  stellar 
performances  in  "Dancin"  and 
"Goodtime  Charley."  Her  career 
not  only  included  Broadway  hits 
but  also  film  roles  in  "Movie, 
Movie,"  "All  That  Jazz,"  "Annie" 
and  "Micki  and  Maude."  Reinking 
continued  to  establish  herself  by 
choreographing  "Pal  Joey,"  "Suite 
to  Sondheim,"  "Simple  Gifts"  and 
"Chicago."  "Pal  Joey"  won  her  a 
Jefferson  Award. 

In  1 990  Reinking  pursued 
a  career  in  motherhood  after  the 
birth  of  her  son.  However,  she 
continued  to  choreograph.  In 
1991  she  became  the  artistic 
director  of  the  Musical  Theater 
Project  of  Tampa,  a  center  to  train 
and  educate  young  theater  talent. 
There  she  earned  the  1992  Dance 
Educators  of  America  Award.  She 
said  she  felt  that  part  of  being  a 
dancer  was  teaching  and  passing

In  19  8  2,  Ann 
Reinking  starred  in 
the  motion  picture 
"Annie"  along  with 
Carol  Burnett,  Albert 
Finney  and  Aileen 
Quinn.  The  movie 
was  a  success  across 
the  nation  and  around 
the  world.  The  story 
was  originally  brought 
to  the  stage  and  had  a 
long  run  on 
Broadway. 


Starring  in  "All  That 
Jazz"  in  1979,  Ann 
Reinking  worked  with 
actors  Roy  Scheider, 
Jessica  Lange,  Leland 
Palmer  and  Ben 
Vereen.  The  film 
called  for  Reinking  to 
utilize  her  expertise  as 
a  dancer  as  well  as  her 
acting  skills. 
Reinking  was  a

the  tradition  along. 

During  her  six  weeks 
residency  at  the  University, 
Reinking  shared  her  talent  and 
knowledge  of  show  business.  She 
taught  masters  classes  and 
conducted  auditions  and 
rehearsals.  She  also 
choreographed  and  directed  a 
musical  theater  review  in  which 
her  students  could  perform  what 
they  had  learned. 

Perhaps  the  most 
important  element  taught  by 
Reinking  was  not  how  to  dance  or 
sing  but  how  to  concentrate  on  the 
job  one  was  doing,  not  the  glamour 
that  want  along  with  it. 

"Believing  in  the 
goodness  of  your  work,  not  the 
applause   is  what's   important,"

Reinking  said. 

Indeed  the  Tallahassee 
community  beleived  in  the 
goodness  of  Reinking's  work. 
While  in  residency  she  received  a 
key  to  the  city  of  Tallahassee  from 
Mayor  Dorothy  Inman-Crews,  an 
award  given  only  to  the  most 
distingushed  persons  of  the 
community.  She  also  was  given  the 
Ambassador  of  Arts  Award,  for  the 
cultural  growth  of  the  arts.  The 
Assistant  Secretary  of  State  Joel 
Sole  gave  Reinking  the  award. 

"Ann  is  intense,  she 
knows  what  she  wants  but  she's 
very  sensitive,"  sophomore  musical 
theatre  major  Montego  Glover 
said.  "She  is  very  insightful,  very 
professional  and  to  see  her  work  is 
extremely  rivoting."

for  the  University.

For  years  the  University's 
business  school  has  provided  a 
curriculum  for  students  looking  to 
get  their  start  in  marketing, 
management  and  other  areas  of  the 
job  market. 

The  school  began 
developing  a  new  program,  the 
Executive  Management  Program, 
to  help  middle  managers  already  in 
the  business  world  keep  their 
competitive  edge.  The  program 
was  developed  along  with  the 
Center  for  Professional 
Development. 

There  was  a  need  for 
middle  managers  to  keep  up  with 
changing  times.  With  interest  in 
executive  positions  increasing, 
there  was  a  demand  for  technical 
and  leadership  skills  to  be  further 
developed.  Effectiveness  in  a 
global  market  became  a  must. 

The  Executive 
Management  Program  was 
developed  to  be  a  seminar  that 
focused  on  these  and  other  issues 
such  as  making  better  decisions, 
understanding  and  using  financial 
statements  and  managing  diversity 
in  the  modern  work  place. 

"We  want  to  focus  on 
what  the  future  work  force  will  be 
like  and  how  to  manage  the  diverse 
issue  that  will  emerge,"  Melvin 
Stith,  dean  of  the  College  of 
Business,  said. 

He  continued  on,  saying 
that  the  employees  and  employers 
of  today  needed  to  be  more  aware  of 
new  issues  as  they  arose. 

"It's  not  just  ethnic 
diversity,  it's  also  cutting  edge 
issues  such  as  paternity  leave,  aging 
workers,  the  increasing  numbers  of 
disabled  employees  and  the 
multinational  nature  of  the  labor," 
Stith  said. 

The  program  was  an 
original   idea  and  would  make 


efforts  to  address  common 
problems  in  the  work  place.  It  was 
designed  through  a  partnership 
made  of  business  professors  and 
executives  from  companies 
including  State  Farm  Insurance, 
First  Union  Bank  and  Gulf  Power 
Company. 

"We're  not  just  teaching 
the  standard  executive 
management  program.  We  believe 
we're  responding  to  the  private 
enterprise  needs  of  Florida  and  the 
nation,"  Bill  Anthony, 
management  professor  and 
director  of  the  program,  said. 

Candidates  for  the 
program  were  to  be  nominated  by 
their     organization. 

The  criteria  for  selection 
would  include  work  experience, 
employer  recommendation  and 
the  applicability  of  the  program  to 
the  professional  career  of  the 
candidate.  A  bachelor's  degree 
would  be  preferred  among  the 
candidates. 

As  business  took  on  a 
more  technological  edge  and 
competition  for  jobs  increased,  the 
program  provided  managers  with 
the  necessary  education  in  an  ever- 
changing  job  market. 

The  program  was 
scheduled  for  a  week  in  February  to 
focus  on  the  changes  in  the  labor 
force.  The  program  in  March  was 
developed  to  concentrate  on 
realizing  a  competitive  edge  by 
building  a  quality  management 
program.  The  program  in  April 
would  focus  on  formulating  and 
executing  strategy.  Each  of  the 
three  sections  was  scheduled  to  last 
one  week. 

Originally  scheduled  for 
1994,  the  program  will  run  in  1995. 
The  program  will  be  the  first 
program  of  its  kind  at  the  state 
university  level.

Jennie  Murphree  Residence  Hall  is  the  home  to 
many  female  students.  The  Hall  was  just  newly 
renovated  from  its  original  layout.  Many  of  the 
alumni  fondly  remembered  living  in  the 
dormitory  and  all  of  the  restrictions  that  came 
along  with  it.

Most  students  on  campus 
never  got  the  chance  to  learn 
firsthand  about  the  history  that 
surrounded  the  University. 

However  when  the  Class  of 
1 944  returned  to  its  alma  matter  on 
April  15  and  16,  several  students 
from  the  Student  Alumni 
Association  got  to  learn  about  a 
slice  of  the  past  of  the  Florida  State 
College  for  Women. 

"One  of  the  first  changes  the 
ladies  noticed,  aside  from  the 
University's  coeducational 
atmosphere,  was  the  fact  that  the 
campus  had  quadrupled  in  size," 
SAA  member  Leslie  Hoh  said.  "I 
guess  they  didn't  expect  so  much  to 
change  in  50  years." 

One  of  the  most  notable 
differences  between  FSCW  and 
FSU  was  the  amount  of  freedom 
that  the  students  had  in  their 
ability  to  come  and  go  as  they 
pleased. 

In  1944,  strict  rules  for  the 
young  women  were  listed  in  the 
FSCW  handbook  including: 
"Room  Limits:  Students  are 
expected  to  be  in  their  rooms  by 
third  light  flash  and  may  not  leave 
before  7  a.m.  except  in  the  case  of 
an  emergency.  Such  emergencies 
require  written  permission  from 
the  residence  counselor." 

SAA  president  Ashley 
Fillingim  was  astonished  that  the 
students  of  that  time  could  follow 
such  stringent  limitations. 

"It  amazes  me  that  these 
ladies  didn't  go  crazy  having  such 
restrictions  placed  upon  them. 
However,  if  they  were  anything 
like  I  am,  I  am  positive  some  of 
them  broke  the  rules  to  stay  out 
later,"  Fillingim  said. 

One  thing  about  the 
University  that  had  not  changed 
much  since  the  class  of  1944 
departed   was   the   Sweet   Shop, 


which  was  still  located  in  its 
original  home  on  Jefferson  Street. 
FSCW  students  often  could  scrape 
up  enough  money  for  a  College 
Girl's  Special,  a  65  cent  steak  and 
potatoes  meal. 

"From  what  the  ladies  told 
me,  they  would  sneak  out  of  their 
rooms  with  a  trench  coat  over  their 
pajamas  to  go  have  coffee  over  at 
the  Sweet  Shop,"  SAA  member 
Rhett  Bullard  said.  "But  I  think 
they  were  really  sneaking  out  to 
meet  the  pilots  being  trained  at  the 
nearby  Dale  Mabry  Army  Air 
Field." 

The  part  of  campus  that 
attracted  the  biggest  attention 
form  the  alumni  was  the  newly 
renovated  Jennie  Murphree 
dormitory. 

"Most  of  the  ladies  who  lived 
in  Jennie  Murphree  Hall  back  in 
the  forties  remembered  the  bottom 
floor  being  called  the  alphabet 
level  and  how  that  was  where  the 
'cool'  girls  lived,"  SAA  member 
Donna  Davis  said.  "Although  they 
were  impressed  by  how  much  the 
dorm  has  changed,  I  think  they 
were  a  little  disappointed  that  the 
alphabet  level  is  now  'floor  zero.' 
To  them,  it  just  doesn't  seem  as 
special  anymore." 

One  thing  that  students 
discovered  while  visiting  with  the 
Class  of  1944  was  that  it  did  not 
matter  if  the  school  was  called 
"FSCW"  or  "FSU"  because  the 
pride  and  spirit  in  the  college  was 
uniform  across  the  years. 

"Whether  students  were 
cheering  on  the  Odd-Even  teams 
or  the  Seminole  football  team,  I 
think  that  the  spirit  of  belonging  to 
the  special  place  this  university  is 
gives  anyone  who  has  ever 
attended  a  class  here  a  real  sense  of 
pride,"  SAA  member  Courtney 
Chase  said.

The  Sweet  Shop,  after  being  renovated  in  1 99 1 , 
serves  as  a  place  to  eat  and  relax  for  many 
students.  The  restaurant  tried  to  keep 
University  traditions  alive  by  displaying  many 
old  FSCW  pictures.  The  Sweet  Shop  was  one  of 
the  oldest  establishments  in  the  area.

dedicated  entirely  to  university  research.

IIIIII!" 


In  1984  the  United 
States  Department  of  Energy 
passed  a  proposal  funded  by 
Congress  to  establish  an  institute 
in  which  scientists  could  use  super 
computers  to  do  intense  research. 
The  Super  Computations 
Research  Institute  was  erected  on 
the  top  floor  of  the  Dirac  Science 
Library  at  the  University.  SCRI 
became  a  mecca  to  the  science 
world,  opening  up  doors  to 
researchers  and  scientists  of  every 
field  of  scientific  study  to  come 
and  experience  the  amazing  power 
of  the  computers. 

SCRI  was  the  first 
federally  funded  supercomputer 
program  in  the  United  States 
devoted  to  university  research. 
There  was  no  classified  work  done 
at  SCRI,  thus  enabling  anyone  to 
visit  and  explore  the  institute's 
research.  Professors,  students, 
researchers  and  more  than  40 
scientists  from  all  over  the  world 
had  access  to  the  supercomputers 
as  they  related  to  new  studies, 
computational  projects  and 
technological  breakthroughs. 

"We  are  one  of  the  few 
universities  which  provides  access 
to  supercomputers  for  faculty," 
SCRI  Education  Outreach 
Program  employee  Richard 
Skoonberg  said.  "It  strengthens 
the  University's  ability  to  do 
research  in  the  basic  scientific 
fields." 

The  institute  contained 
three  high  performance 
supercomputer  systems,  which 
included  thousands  of  simple 
computers  that  simultaneously 
operated  on  the  same  problem. 
Another  computer  was  the  CRAY 
YMP  which  processed  264 
megabytes  of  memory. 

The  diversity  of  the 
different  branches  of  scientific 


research  included  theoretical  high 
energy  physics.  Perhaps  the  most 
intriguing  discovery  of  science  at 
SCRI  was  the  invention  of  SciAn, 
a  three-dimensional  animation 
package  which  allowed  the 
computer  viewer  to  visualize  data. 
SciAn  used  millions  of  pieces  of 
information  to  formulate  pictures 
in  which  the  user  could  rotate  and 
highlight  the  objects  on  the 
screen.  Many  aspects  of  scientific 
study  were  improved  tremendously 
as  the  visualization  of 
thunderstorms  from  Doppler  radar 
could  be  compared  to  actual  data. 
The  comparisons  were  made  into 
better  estimations  of  weather 
patterns. 

Research  in  Alzheimer's 
disease  enabled  scientists  to 
visualize  EEC  brain  wave  patterns 
of  Alzheimers  patients  and  to 
compare  them  to  those  of  normal, 
healthy  people.  This  led  to  early 
diagnosis  and  treatment  of  the 
disease.  SciAn  was  free  to  all 
researchers,  businesses  and 
universities  and  it  was  user- 
friendly. 

"Researchers  using 
SciAn  can  open  our  eyes  and 
minds  to  new  visions  of  our  world 
and  beyond,"  SCRI  video 
spokesperson  Rick  Dominguez 
said.  "We  at  SCRI  understand  the 
need  of  putting  new  tools  in  the 
hands  of  researchers  in  the  field." 

SCRI  benefited  the 
scientific  community  by  providing 
a  free  summer  workshop  for  high 
school  science  and  math  teachers 
during  the  summer.  The  seminar 
taught  the  teachers  how  to  use  the 
supercomputers  in  research  and  to 
develop  computer  examples  for 
the  use  in  high  school  science  class 
rooms.  The  two  week  seminar  was 
headed  by  computational 
scientists.

EARCHING  FOR  A  LEA 


Photo  hy  Steve  Stiher 


Former  University  President  Dr.  Dale  Lick 
stands  at  attention  during  the  Bells  ot  Hope 
Ceremony.  Lick  resigned  his  position  in  late 
August  during  the  beginning  of  the  fall 
semester. 


Jennifer 
wiand 


As  the  new  school  year 
commenced  in  late  August,  many 
students  were  unaware  of  the 
administrative  changes  taking 
place  at  the  University.  The 
excitement  of  football  season,  fall 
rush  and  new  classes  left  students 
with  little  time  to  keep  up  with 
local  politics. 

Yet  when  the  news  hit 
Tallahassee  that  University 
President  Dr.  Dale  Lick  was 
applying  for  the  presidency  at 
Michigan  State  University,  it 
captured  the  students'  attention. 

After  being  the  president 
of  the  University  for  only  two 
years,  Lick's  resume  went  to  his 
Michigan  alma  mater.  This  career 
move  was  a  shock  to  all  and  it 
sparked  much  controversy  within 
the  University  community. 

Lick  withdrew  from  the 
campaign  after  a  haunting  remark 
he  had  made  about  black  athletes 
in  1989  surfaced  in  Michigan. 
Although  Lick  apologized  for  the 
remarks,  he  had  lost  favor  as  a 
semifinalist  for  the  presidential 
position. 

Back  in  Tallahassee, 
Lick's  ordeal  in  Michigan  came  as  a 
surprise  to  the  Chancellor  and 
Board  of  Regents,  who  supported 
and  oversaw  such  positions  as  the 
presidency.  From  that  point  on 
Lick's  presidency  seemed  to 
dissipate.  While  some  people 
viewed  Lick  as  a  competent  and 
active  leader,  others  felt  betrayed 
by  the  president's  search  for 
alternative  employment. 

President  Lick  resigned 
on  Aug.  31,  after  political 
controversy  seemed  to  overpower 
the  normal  flow  of  administrative 
decisions  and  actions.  The  feelings 
were  mixed  as  some  felt  that  Lick 
was  forced  to  resign.  Others  felt 
that  his  application  at  another 

CONTINUED 


school  swayed  his  support  locally. 

Regardless  o(  opinions 
and  events,  Lick's  two-year  term 
in  office  was  eventful.  He  was 
noted  for  improving  the 
University's  race  and  gender 
diversity,  including  appointing  the 
first  female  vice  president.  He  also 
reached  nearly  halt  of  the  $200 
million  Capital  Campaign  five 
year  goal. 

"I  think  that  we're  going 
to  miss  him.  I  think  they've  blown 
everything  all  out  of  proportion," 
senior  Dave  Azzarito  said.  "And  I 
think  we'll  have  to  see  if  we  can 
find  someone  comparable." 

The  BOR  appointed  Dr. 
Bernie  Sliger  to  be  the  interim 
president  of  the  University  until  a 
new  president  was  chosen.  Sliger 
had  served  as  the  University's 
president  for  14  years  before  Lick's 
presidency.  Sliger's  main 
objective  during  his  short  term  was 
to  continue  the  fund  raising 
campaign  that  Lick  had  began. 
Sliger's  experience  as  president 
provided  a  model  for  others  to 
follow. 

"A  president  has  to  have 
lots  of  energy,  be  able  to  read  fast 
and  delegate,"  Sliger  said. 
"People's  individual  talents  help  as 
well,  like  being  an  economist  or  a 
history  professor.  Both  would  add 
different  aspects  to  the  job." 

During  his  stint  as 
interim  president,  Sliger 
underwent  major  surgery  for  his 
cardiovascular  heart  disease.  The 
operation  was  to  bypass  seven 
obstructed  arteries  around  his 
heart.  In  addition  he  suffered  a 
minor  stroke  during  his  surgical 
recovery. 

These  events  impaired 
Sliger's  ability  to  immediately  act 
as  interim  president,  delaying  the 
University  fund  raising  yet  again.

Provost  Robert  Glidden  stepped 
in  to  handle  the  administrative 
affairs,  as  there  was  nobody  to  act 
as  the  resident  or  interim  president 
of  the  University. 

The  search  for  a  new 
president,  although  delayed, 
continued  midway  through  the  fall 
semester.  Two  committees  were 
formed  in  order  to  help  find  and 
choose  the  new  president,  one 
being  the  Regents  Selection 
Committee  and  the  other  the 
Search  Advisory  Committee. 

The  group  was  extremely 
diverse,  with  the  likes  of  Carl 
Sagan,  Lani  Guinier,  T.K. 
Wetherell  and  Wayne  Huizenga 
filling  out  the  applications. 

By  the  end  of  November, 
the  list  of  candidates  was  narrowed 


FROM  PAGE  88 

to  10.  The  candidates  were 
interviewed  publicly  and  their 
characteristics  and  qualifications 
were  thoroughly  researched  and 
evaluated.  Upon  voting  and 
reaching  a  unanimous  final 
agreement,  Dr.  Sandy 
D'Alemberte  was  elected  the 
University's  12th  president. 

D'Alemberte's  list  of 
credentials  included  serving  in  the 
House  of  Representatives  and  as 
the  President  of  the  American  Bar 
Association. 

"D'Alemberte  will  be  a 
very  energetic  president,"  Dr.  John 
Daltonsaid.  "He  will  bring  a  sense 
of  leadership  at  the  national  level 
that  will  benefit  the  University. 
He  will  also  motivate  the 
students."

many  opportunities 
throughout  the  year 
for  students  interested 
in  the  political  and 
administrative 
organization  of  the 
University  to  come 
forward  and  challenge 
those  who  were  in  the 
leadership  positions.

There  was  one 

National  Championship 

story  that  circulated 

during  the  1 993  season 

that  didn't  stem  directly 

from  the  sports  page. 

A  joke  had  been 

passed  around  the 

Bowden  homes.  It  spoke 

of  a  football  coach  that 

sold  his  soul  to  the  devil 

for  a  national 

championship.  When  two 

of  Bobby  Bowden 's  sons, 

supposedly  went  down  to 

meet  the  devil  and  a  cold 

breeze  came  from  beyond 

the  gate  one  son  said  to 

the  other,  "Well,  dad  must 

have  won  a  national 

championship. " 

"Yeah  it's  got  a 

chance  to  be  a  little  cooler 

down  there  I  guess, " 

Bowden  said  to  the  crowd 

as  he  gazed  over  the 

National  Championship 

trophy  in  January.

win  of  the  season,  security

was  celebrated  in  numerous  other 

ways  late  into  the  night.

Through  dance,  many 

Golden  Girls  feel  they 

have  made  lasting 

friends 

TRONG  BOND 


Being  part  of  any  activity  established  a 

bond  that  grew  between  those  involved.  As  the 
year  went  by,  the  participants  became  almost 
like  family  and  often  the  friendships  created 
lasted  for  years  to  come.  The  1993-94  Golden 
Girl  squad  was  no  exception.  Most  of  the  girls 
hung  out  together  and  some  eventually  lived 
together. 

"My  friends  are  the  Golden  Girls.  My 
life  is  centered  around  this  squad.  It's  something 
you  make  friends  with  for  life,"  Michelle 
Brandon  said.  "  It  will  always  help  me  in  any 
aspect  of  my  life.  I'll  never  forget  being  a  part  of 
it." 

The  squad  was  respected  for  their 
talents.  They 

practiced  Monday 
through  Thursday,  for 
at  least  two  to  three 
hours.  Not  only  did 
they  perform  at 
football  games,  they 
also  did  shows  for  rush 
parties,  competitions, 
local  business  projects 
and  community 
activities.  They  were 
especially  busy  two 
weeks  before  school 
started;  during  that 
time  they  practiced 
for  the  different 
appearances  they  had 
to  make  for  the  many  activities  that  went  on 
before  school  started.  This  team  worked  as  hard 
as  any  other  team  on  campus  but  most 
importantly,  they  all  took  pride  in  what  they 
did.

weighed  heavily  on  the  captain,  senior  Denise 
Jerome.  She  danced  in  high  school  and  held 
various  dance  jobs. 

"It's  a  lot  of  hard  work,  mainly  because 
of  the  time  demands.  It's  a  challenge  for  me  but 

I  love  it,"  she  said. 

Being  captain  of  such  a  perfection 

oriented  squad  took  up  a  lot  of  time  from 
Jerome's  schedule.  She  had  no  time  for  any 
outside  jobs  and  her  schedule  was  often  filled 
with  Golden  Girl  related  activities.  However, 
along  with  being  captain  of  the  Golden  Girls 
squad,  she  also  choreographed  for  many  local 
high  school  dance  and  cheeleading  squads  and 

taught  at  many  dance 
studios  with  different 
agents. 

The  past 
four  years  have  been 
the  best  years  of  my 
life.  I  would  not  want 
to  give  it  up  for 
anything  else,"  Jerome 
said.  "I  would  like  to 
see  them  grow  when  I 
leave.  Yes,  I'm 
extremely  sad  because 
I  have  to  leave  but  the 
memories  will  always 
carry  with  me." 

In  the  future  the 

Golden  Girls  planned 

to  start  recruiting  from 

high  schools.  By  letting  others  know  that  they 

were  out  there,     the  squad  hoped  to  attract 

talented  girls  to  come  to  the  University  in  hopes 

of  making  the  squad.  By  letting  girls  know  what

Although  Coach  Martin  did  not  feel 
there  were  any  drawbacks  to  coaching  his  son, 
Martin  felt  there  were  a  few. 


Coach  Martin  had  a  similar  view. 

"Even  though  I  approach  him  like

benefited  from  the  situation,"  Coach  Martin 


"On  the  road,  you  are  the  one  that  the      said.  "It  is  good  to  get  a  chance  to  see  him  every 

day." 

In  case 
Seminole  fans  were 
worried  that  Coach 
Martin  would  leave 
for  the  majors  when 
his  son  got  drafted, 
they  should  be  glad  to 
know  that  was  not  a 
consideration  for 
him. 

"I  really 
like  FSU.  I  think  it 
is  a  great  job  and  I 
wouldn't  leave  it  tor 
the  majors,"  Coach 
Martin  said. 

"Besides,     there   are 


opposing  fans  watch 
and  sometimes  I  feel 
like  I'm  under  a 
magnifying  glass," 
Martin  said.  "There 
is  extra  pressure  to 
be  an  example  on 
and  off  the  field. 
Other  than  that,  I 
really  enjoy  it."

return  trip  to  the  College  World  Series. 

"We  knew  that  we  had  lost  a  lot  of 
talent  and  leadership  and  that  it  was  going  to  be 
hard  to  replace  the  experience,"  Coach  Graf 
said. 

Lost  were  six  starters,  two  of  which 
were  All-Americans,  pitcher  Toni  Gutierrez 
and  right  fielder  Susan  Buttery.  The  five  others 
were  catcher  Leslie  Adams,  first  baseman 
Heather  Conway,  shortstop  Cindy  Gordon  and 
center  fielder  Leslie 
Barton. 

As  the  old 
talent  left,  bright  new 
talent  as  well  as  a 
strong  pitching  staff 
stepped  up  to  take  the 
place  of  those  lost. 

"This  team 
will  surprise  a  lot  of 
people,"  Coach  Graf 
said. 

And  surprise 
they  did,  starting  the 
year  off  with  a  ranking 
of  ninth  in  the  polls.

While  the  houses  are  secured  by  security 
systems,  such  as  the  common  Sonitrol  system, 
there  are  other  security  concerns  that  the  ladies 
have.  Parking  lots  and  the  lighting  of  the 
grounds  that  surrounded  the  houses  were  among 
some  of  the  other  concerns  that  the  ladies  tried 
to  address  during  the  year.  To  help  solve  these 
problems,  some  hired  security  guards. 


An  Alpha  Gamma  Delta  sister  uses  the 
Sonitrol  code  to  secure  the  house  again  for  the 
night.  Sonitrol  was  used  in  many  of  the  Greek 
houses.  The  system  required  a  code  to  be 
punched  in  to  turn  the  alarm  on  and  off  during 
the  school  year  while  the  houses  were  open  with 
residents.  During  the  summer  the  sorority 
houses  were  closed.

PanGreek  rush  was  not   a  process  time  to  pursue  one  fraternity  or  sorority  instead 

whereby  potential  members  went  through  a  of  eliminating  a  list.  A  rushee  would  "research"

sororities,  visiting  each  house  and  hoping  for  the  deciding  on   which  people,   activities  and

member  of  the 
PanGreek  system  it 
was  very  clear  that  he 
or  she  would  be  a 
permanent  affiliate  of 
a  tight,  proud 
brotherhood. 

"There  are 
many  choices  of 
PanGreek  fraternities 
and  sororities.  You 
should  explore  all  of 
your  options  and 
make  sure  that  the 
fraternity  or  sorority

Alpha  Phi  Alpha 
brother    Richard 


'There  are  many  choices

and  sororities.   You 

should  explore  all  of 

your  options  and  make 

sure  that  the  fraternity  or 

sorority  you  are  pledging 

is  the  best  one  for  you.'' 

-RICHARD  JOHNSON 


What  happened  after 
the  interviews 
remained  a  mystery. 
No  one,  except  the 
fraternities  or 
sororities  themselves, 
knew  the  actual 
selection  process.  It 
was  this  secretive 
procedure  that 
narrowed  down  who 
would  be  eligible  to 
wear  the  Greek  letters 
and  proclaim  their 
membership. 

Being  a  legacy  in  a 
fraternity  or  sorority 
could  only  get  a  rushee 
so  far  in  the  selection 


Johnson  said.    "You  should  always  choose  to      process.  It  was  always  taken  into  consideration 
pledge  for  yourself,  and  most  importantly,  take      it  a  person  had  a  mother  or  father  in  the  Greek 


your  time.   You  have  four  or  more  years  at  the 
University  to  decide — don't  rush  into  it." 

Before  rush  even  started  the  choice 
had  been  made  as  to  which  fraternity  or  sorority 
one  would  pledge.    Therefore,  rush  became  a 


system,  yet  whether  or  not  a  person  had  the  right 
credentials  and  a  good  attitude  was  the  ultimate 
deciding  factor. 

It  was  at  the  spring  Step  Show  that  all 
new   PanGreek   brothers   and   sisters   were

announced  and  presented  after  their  initiation. 
The  larger  fraternities  and  sororities  accepted 
anywhere  from  eight  to  twenty  new  pledges  and 
the  smaller  chapters,  around  three  to  four. 

It  was  not  an  easy  task  to  become  a 
member  of  the  PanGreek  system.  Although  it 
was  left  up  to  each  fraternity  or  sorority  to  decide 
what  its  qualification  were,  most  wanted  their 
pledges  to  be  active  in  the  community  and  most 
importantly  good  representatives.  Some 
chapters  even  went  so  far  as  to  request 
transcripts  and  GPA's.  They  wanted  to  be 
assured  that  the  person  they  were  accepting  into 


their  organization  would  not  only  be  a  lifetime 
member  but  also  a  loyal  friend. 

"Becoming  a  member  of  Alpha  Kappa 
Alpha  sorority  has  been  a  tremendous  growing- 
up  experience  for  me;  I  have  learned  not  only  to 
think  of  myself,  but  to  think  of  my  sisters  and  my 
community,"  AKA  sister  Hilda  Cenecharles 
said.  "Knowing  that  I  have  so  many  sorority 
sisters  that  I  can  always  depend  on  is  a  special  gift 
that  I  am  so  grateful  to  have  received.  I  hope  my 
sorority  sisters  know  that  they  can  always 
depend  on  me  as  I  know  I  can  always  depend  on 
them." 


O  tanding  proudly,  the  line  poses  for  a  picture  as 
new  brothers.  The  brotherhood  and  sisterhood 
of  these  fraternitites  and  sororities  lasted  a 
lifetime.  The  selection  process  in  the  PanGreek 
system  was  initially  placed  in  the  hands  of  the 
individual  rushee  rather  than  the  fraternity  or 
sorority.  Once  initiations  took  place  there  were 
celebrations  to  welcome  the  new  members.

Otepping  has  been  a  longtime  tradition  and 
way  of  introduction  to  the  public  for  brothers. 
Not  only  was  stepping  a  tradition,  it  was  also  a 
source  of  competition  and  colaboration 
between  sorority  and  fraternity  members.  The 
annual  Extrav  was  held  in  the  fall  and  step  shows 
were  held  throughout  the  year  at  various 
university  functions.

the  greek  system.  This  contentment  lead  him  to 
a  career  in  Greek  advising.  Although  risk

generally  happy  with  the  system.

.During  the  investigation  of  a  rape  at  a  BYOB 
party  at  a  fraternity  house  in  September, 
members  assisted  the  investigators.  Flyers  were 
distributed  by  the  fraternity  to  inquire  about  any 
information  about  the  night  in  question.  The 
investigation  turned  up  little  but  the  incident 
made  the  Greek  and  campus  community  think 
about  safety  when  drinking. 


1  he  Greek  community  works  together  to 
educate  on  the  alcohol  abuse  problem  on  not 
only  this  campus,  but  others  across  the  country. 
Greeks  Advocating  the  Mature  Management  of 
Alcohol,  GAMMA,  worked  throughout  the 
year  to  promote  awareness  and  education 
between  the  Greeks.  Members  come  from  all

Nationally,  86  percent  of  fraternity 
house  residents  binged  six  or  more  times  in  two 
weeks  compared  to  just  seven  percent  of  other 
students.  Binge  drinking  was  when  an 
individual  consumed  five  or  more  drinks  in  one 
sitting. 

Ninety-two  percent  of  Greek  house 
residents  reported  suffering  from  hangovers  in 
the  year  preceding  the  poll,  compared  to  66 
percent  of  other  students. 

More  than  half  of  Greek  house 
residents  (59  percent)  got  into  alcohol  related 
fights  or  arguments  in  a  year,  a  problem  reported 


by  about  one  in  three  other  students  (33 
percent). 

Compared  to  33  percent  of  other 
students,  70  percent  of  Greek  house  residents 
missed  classes  as  a  result  of  drinking  or  drugging. 

Triston  Sanders,  chairperson  of 
Greeks  Advocating  the  Mature  Management  of 
Alcohol,  said  that  you  can't  deny  the  statistics. 

"We  must  recognize  the  problem  and 
move  forward,"  Sanders  said.  "We  must  take 
incidents  and  consider  how  they  could  have 
been  avoided.  Awareness  and  education  are  the 
keys  here." 


r  raternity  brothers  celebrate  with  a  toast.  Not 
all  Greek  events  were  accompanied  by 
problems.  To  ensure  the  safety  of  all  those  that 
attended  there  were  sign  in  sheets  at  the  door 
and  someone  was  checking  identification  and 
verification  of  legal  drinking  age  to  prevent 
underage  drinking.  These  precautions  became  a 
standard  in  the  Greek  community.

.Drinking  accompanies  many  events.  Over 
the  course  of  the  year  there  were  several  forums 
and  lectures  provided  by  the  Greek  system  to 
educate  themselves  and  others.  These  included 
one  such  forum  in  which  a  drunk  driver 
discussed  his  accident  and  the  details  with  the 
group.  The  speaker  also  discussed  the  value  of

In  the  Alpha  Gamma  Delta  house  there  is  a 
sleeping  porch  that  the  ladies  share.  Rooms 
were  kept  on  a  basis  of  one  to  four  in  a  room,  like 
a  dormitory,  however,  all  of  the  ladies  shared 
one  room  for  sleeping  for  safety  reasons.  This 
practice  went  into  effect  after  the  Bundy 
murders  occurred  at  a  sorority  house  near 
campus.

sister  tried  to  ignore  her  early  morning  wake  up

attempt  to  aquaint  themselves  with  one  of  the 
sorority  rush  groups  as  they  pass  by  on  their  way 
to  another  sorority  house.  Fall  rush  week  was  a 
very  busy  time  for  both  sororities  and 
fraternities,  however,  it  did  offer  several 
opportunities  for  people  meet  and  become 
aqainted  with  one  another.

Lavaliering  his  girlfriend  was  a  sign  that  he  was 
prepared  to  make  a  commitment  to  her.  Many 
fraternity  members  found  very  unusual  and 
personal  ways  to  lavalier  their  girlfriends.  When 
a  member  of  a  sorority  was  lavaliered  her  sisters 
held  a  "candlelight"  ceremony  for  her.

"The  lovely  women  at  Phi  Mu  sorority  house 
were  nice  enough  to  let  us  borrow  their  house  for 
rush  week,"  Golightly  said. 

Thompson  said  they  grabbed  a  barbecue  grill 
every  night  during  rush  week  and  had  members 
bring  friends  who  were  interested. 

Thompson  said  the  interest  group  had  close 
to  30  people  come  through  rush  and  they  had 
given  out  five  bids  for  membership.  Delta 
Upsilon's  international  headquarters  required 
35  brothers  tor  an  interest  group  to  be 
recognized  as  a  colony. 

"We  would  rather  gain  our  charter  with 


quality  guys,"  Thompson  said.  "We  aren't  afraid 
to  say  no." 

Two  aspects  of  AY  that  the  interest  group  was 
capitalizing  upon  were  its  non-secret  nature  and 
multicultural  diversity. 

Delta  Upsilon  has  been  non-secret  since  its 
inception  in  1834. 

"Only  20  percent  of  the  school  is  Greek.  We 
want  the  ones  that  don't  want  to  be  Greek.  We 
add  a  different  facet  by  being  a  non-secret 
organization,"  Golightly  said. 

The  initiation  ceremony  was  held  in  the 
spring  and  open  to  any  one  wishing  to  attend. 


IN  ew  members  of  Delta  Upsilon  pay  close 
attention  during  the  initiation  ceremony. 
There  were  approximately  30  new  brothers  who 
all  wished  to  join  a  fraternity  that  prided 
themselves  on  being  diverse  and  non-secretive. 
There  were  many  steps  that  the  founding 
members  had  to  go  through  to  have  recognition 
from  the  University.

of  its  kind  on  campus.  The  educational  program 
was  based  on  discussing  only  hazing.  The 
program  was  in  the  form  of  a  monologue.

performed  by  David  Westol.  The  play  depicteo 
a  situation  of  hazing  that  has  become  all  toe 
common  across  the  country  in  many  university 
Greek  systems.  The  message  of  the  presentation 
was  said  to  have  been  very  direct  and  clear,  that 
hazing  was  everyone's  problem  and  it  was 
therefore  everyone's  responsibility  to  help 
prevent  it.

The  University  has  worked  diligently  Westol  has  presented  this  same  format  over  200 

to  enforce  its  strict  no-hazing  policy.  According  times  nationwide, 
to  the  Florida  State  University  Hazing  Policy,  Hamlet  Yousef,  0X's  external  vice 


hazing  was  defined  as 
"any  action,  activity 
or  situation  which 
recklessly,  negligently 
or  intentionally 
endangers  the  mental 
or  physical  health  or 
safety  of  a  person  for

of  positive  feedback 
and  the  outcome  was 
more  than  we 
expected.  I  think  it 
was  very  effective," 
Yousef  said. 

One  fact  pointed 
out  was  that  hazing

Held  in  October,  the  annual  step  show 
extravaganza  was  a  heated  competition  for  the 
Pan  Greek  organizations  on  campus.  In  this 
competition,  the  Pan  Greek  organizations 
competed  by  performing  prepared  routines, 


"It  was  an  exciting  feeling  to  be  on  stage  with 
everyone  watching,"  Delta  Sigma  Theta 
member  Letitia  Price  said. 

Some  began  preparing  for  the  Extrav  some 
two  months  in  advance,  practicing  for  two  or 


each  of  which  was  usually  about  fifteen  minutes  more  hours  everyday  before  the  show, 
long.   The  routines  included  difficult  stepping  "When  the  music  started,  my  adrenaline 

ability  combined  with  rhythmic  dancing  ability,  started  pumping  and  I  knew  that  I  was  ready," 

all  tied  together  into  one  theme.  Alpha  Kappa  Alpha  member  Jacqueline  Spence 


"When  the  music 
started, 

my  adrenaline

and  I  knew  that

Themes  varied 
according  to  the 
different  routines  that 
each  organization 
performed.  For 
example,  Kappa 
Alpha  Psi  had 
"Computer  Love"  as 
its  theme  and  Delta 
Sigma  Theta's  theme 
was  "Delta  Force."

Jelke  said.  "The  program  is  designed  to  improve 
the  children's  grades  and  self-esteem  and  also 
improves  the  attendance  of  the  student  because 
they  have  something  to  look  forward  to  at 
school." 

Many  Greeks  enjoyed  the  opportunity 
to  interact  with  the  children.  Tracy  Edwards,  a 
member  of  Delta  Zeta  sorority,  worked  on  math 
and  spelling  with  a  fifth  grade  student. 

"It's  very  rewarding  to  see  the  changes 
in  the  children  as  you  work  with  them,"  Edwards 
stated.  "You  can  really  see  an  increase  in  their 
effort.  They  work  a  lot  harder  and  become  much 


more  confident." 

The  students  and  volunteers  were  not 
the  only  ones  excited  about  the  Adopt-a-School 
program;  administrators  at  the  elementary 
school  were  thrilled  with  the  results  as  well. 

"There  is  no  end  to  the  wonderful 
things  that  have  happened,"  Assistant  Principal 
of  Caroline  Brevard  Elementary  School  Harriet 
Hendry  said.  "Some  of  the  children  have  really 
blossomed.  One  of  the  things  that  the 
volunteers  have  been  especially  effective  with  is 
enhancing  the  children's  self-esteem  and 
improving  their  outlook  on  school." 


1  he  Greek  volunteers  and  the  children  from 
Caroline  Brevard  Elementary  School  anticipate 
who  they  will  be  paired  with  for  the  Adopt-a- 
School  project.  The  volunteers  were  carefully 
paired  with  students  who  shared  the  same 
interests  and  personality  traits.  The  volunteers 
met  with  the  students  each  week  to  work  with 
them  in  their  areas  that  needed  most  help.

to  us  what  we  give  to  them.  This  is 
what  Chiefs  is  all  ahout,"  member 
Becky  Kroll  said. 

Tradition  was  what  made 
the  Chiefs  one  of  the  most  special 
clubs  on  campus.  Tradition  began 
during  the  tirst  day  of  practice 
when  each  instrument  section  was 
introduced  to  its  respective  tree. 
The  trees  surrounding  the  practice 
field  provided  shelter  during 
outdoor  rehearsals. 

Each  section  also  had  a 
nickname  and  was  rivaled  with 
another  section.  The  flutes,  for 
example,  otherwise  known  as  the 
"pistols,"  were  paired  with  the 
saxophones  or  "the  bones."  For 
the  entire  season,  these  two 
sections  engaged  in  practical  jokes 
and  shared  a  bus  on  away  games. 

There  was  also  a  tradition 
for  the  beginning  of  pregame  and 
half-time.  To  incite  life  into  the 
anxious  marchers,  the  Chiefs 
began  each  show  with  "Ten  Hut! 
Raise  Hell!"  and  ended  it  with 
"Ten  Hut!   Ossse!  Ossse!" 

The  most  distinct 
tradition  among  the  chiefs, 
however,  was  the  "Hymn  to  the 
Garnet  and  the  Gold."  Performed 
at  the  end  of  every  game,  the  Chiefs 
put  down  their  instruments,  linked 
arms  and  sang,  "Here's  a  hymn  to 
the  garnet  and  the  gold  ringing  to 
the  sky.  Here's  a  hymn  to  the  men 
and  women  bold,  singing  with 
heads  held  high..." 

As  the  music  climaxed, 
tears  escaped  the  tired  performers. 
Whether  the  team  proved 
victorious  or  not,  the  Marching 
Chiefs  left  with  pride.

T       h       e 

Professional 

Business 

Fraternity, 

was  a  well 

reputed 

organization 

within   the 

college,  the 

University 

and     the 

nation. 

T       h       e 

fraternity   combined   life   long 

brotherhood    with      business 

education. 

Once  an  individual 
became  involved  with  AK^F,  they 
began  to  form  life  long  connections 
with  future  business  leaders. 
Members  also  became  more 
knowledgeable  in  professional 
etiquette,  job  searching  and  career 
planning  while  developing  an 
overall  sense  of  the  business  world. 

The  entrance  of  women 
into  chapters  of  AKT  in  1978 
allowed  for  diversification  and 
over  half  of  BH^'s  brotherhood 


lari  work,  dedication  and  a 
continual  willingness  to  learn  are 

what  it  takes  to  tame  a 

tatier,"  Susan  Ely,  a  sophomore 

Management  Information  Specialist 

major,  sail 


The  B^  chapter  was 
housed  off  campus  on  College 
Avenue.  While  it  was  typical  for 
social  fraternities  to  own  their  own 
houses,  it  was  unusual  for  a  business 
organization. 

Living 
with  eight 
people 
who  all 
have  the 
goal  to 
become 
successful 
business 
leaders 
helps  a 
person 
grow 
professionally 
and 
intellectually,"  senior  Chris 
Thompson  said. 

Just  as  in  social 
fraternities,  pledging  was  required 
to  become  a  brother  of  the 
fraternity.  Beta  Psi's  pledge 
program  focused  ort  developing 
potential  brothers  in  the  areas  of 
public  speaking,  proper  business 
etiquette,  interviewing 
techniques  and  increased  business 
awareness. 

"Hard  work,  dedication 
and  a  continual  willingness  to 
learn  are  what  it  takes  to  become  a 
brother,"  Susan  Eby  said.

throughout  the  year  included  the 
successful  pep  rallies  they 
organized. 

The  Lady  Scalphunters 
were  responsible  for  the  comeback 
of  "Gator  Gig,"  the  University's 
largest  and  longest  running  pep 
rally  which  was  held  before  the 
football  team  took  on  the 
University  of  Florida.  The  club 
also  put  on  "Duke  Out,"  a 
basketball  pep  rally  to  get  the 
basketball  team  pumped  before 
they  took  on  the  Duke  Blue  Devils. 

Membership  in  the 
organization  was  highly  sought. 
While  hundreds  of  girls  applied  for 
the  chance  to  wear  the  coveted 
vests  and  participate  in  the 
worthwhile  activities  during  the 
annual  spring  membership  drive, 
only  about  a  fifth  of  the 
applicants  were  accepted  for 
membership. 

"We  already  stand  strong 
with  180  active  members  so  it  is 
quite  a  challenge  to  have  to  select 
from  the  hundreds  of  wonderfully 
spirited  girls  who  want  a  spot," 
President  Tracy  Edwards  said. 
"We  look  for  very  enthusiastic, 
out-going  individuals  who  are 
dedicated  to  promoting  Seminole 
spirit  both  at  Florida  State  and  in 
surrounding  communities." 

While  Lady  Scalphunters 
worked  hard,  they  played  hard  too. 

"Not  only  did  we  dedicate 
our  time  and  effort  into 
furthering  the  pride  at  Florida 
State,  we  also  have  a  great  time 
doing  it,"  Edwards  said.  "With 
our  social  activities,  we  have  so 
much  fun  that  we  forget  it's  work."

The  title  of  the 
monthly  newsletter, 
"Umoja,"  meant  unity 
among  African 
Americans.  This  was 
symholic  of  the 
National  Association  for  the 
Advancement  of  Colored  Persons 
campus  chapter  which  was 
reestablished  at  the  University  in 
1990. 

The  purpose  of  this  group 
was  not  only  descriptive  of  the 
organization's  title,  it  was  also  to 
recognize 
and     fight 
racism.      In 
addition,    it 
served    as    a 
support  group 
for  minorities 
who     had 
experienced 
prejudice  and 
needed 
assistance. 

The 
group  opened 
the    school 

year  with  an  orientation  social  on 
Sept.  15.  Its  purpose  was  to  get 
students  active  in  the  University 
community. 

On  Oct.  20,  the 
organization  hosted  a  "condom- 
wear  "  party  to  educate  students  on 
wise  decisions  concerning  sex. 

NAACP's  continued 
support  of  the  cause  to  stop 
prejudice  was  especially  vocal 
around  the  campus  during 
November.  The  second  annual 
Stop  Racism  Week  informed 
students  of  racism  through 
different  activities.

that  extends  an  invitation  to  all 

minority  students  to  fet  involved,"

In  January,  when  an 
African  American  male  accused 
the  University  police  department 
of  mishandling  and  unjustly 
singling  him  out,  N  A  ACP  came  to 
his  need.  Along  with  Pan  Greek, 
the  Black  Student  Union  and  the 
Student  Government 
Association,  the  group  hosted  a 
forum  to  confront  the  prohlem. 

"The  program  was  totally 
successful,"  sophomore  Contessa 
Sweeting  said.  "A  petition  was 
issued   demanding   an   outside 

investigation." 
T  h  e 
month  of 
February 
was  host 
to  the 
N  A  A  C  P 
week,  with 
the  theme  of 
"Reclaiming 
Our  Roots." 
Another 
successful 


program 
sponsored 
by  the  organization  was  the  Brain 
Bowl. 

"The  Brain  Bowl  is  a 
program  which  challenges 
students'  knowledge  of  minority 
leaders,  history  and  current 
events,"  Vice  President  Karen 
Cockerham  said. 

"NAACP  is  a  wonderful 
organization  that  extends  an 
invitation  to  all  minority  students 
to  get  involved,"  Programmer  and 
Research  Chairperson  Franchon 
Woodard  said.  "It  sincerely  serves

up  the  grounds.  The  circus  was  a 
completely  self-funded  group  that 
did  everything  themselves,  which 
ranged  from  making  repairs  on  the 
grounds  to  sewing  their  own 
costumes. 

The  idea  tor  the  Flying 
High  Circus  came  from  Jack 
Haskins  hack  in  1947.  With  the 
switch  from  an  all-women's  college 
to  a  coed  institution,  Haskins 
desired  to  coordinate  an  activity  in 
which  men  and  women  could 
participate  together.  Haskins  died 
in  April  1993  but  his  wife,  Betty, 
stayed  involved  and  was  kept 
informed  of  circus  activities.  Mrs. 
Haskins  was  introduced  to  the 
audience  during  one  of  the  home 
shows  during  the  spring  season. 

After  the  season's  home 
shows,  the  circus  presented  two 
awards  to  outstanding  members. 
The  Gil  Aldrich  award  for  the  most 
valuable  performer  went  to  Scott 
Wright.  The  Jack  Haskins  award 
went  to  a  student  who  still  had  time 
left  in  the  circus.  The  students 
voted  on  who  they  felt  contributed 
the  most.  The  winner  was  Matt 
Allmen. 

Members  of  the  circus  did 
more  than  just  practice  and 
perform  together,  they  formed  very 
close  friendships. 

"The  camaraderie  and 
friendship  is  great,"  Chuck  Crigler, 
said.  "Circus  is  a  unique 
opportunity  and  a  lot  of  fun." 

Junior  Kerri  Price,  who 
performed  on  the  double  trapeze, 
the  bike  for  five  and  the  Spanish 
web,  said,  "My  favorite  part  of  the 
circus  is  the  unity.  We  really  are 
like  a  family."

made  an  notable  impression  on  the 
students  by  participating  in  the 
Homecoming  parade  for  the  first 
time.  The  float  consisted  of  several 
LGBSU  members  under  a  huge 
rainbow  made  from  balloons  and 
embodied  the  theme  "Everywhere 
Under  the  Rainbow"  which 
symbolized  the  diversity  of  the  gay 
community. 

LGBSU  also  hosted  the 
second  Sunshine  Unity  Network 
Conference,  which  was  a  network 
of  Gay/Lesbian/Bisexual  student 
and  youth  organizations  in  the 
state  of  Florida.  Founded  at  the 
University  of  Florida  a  year  ago,  the 
SUN  conference  almost  did  not 
take  place. 

"The  University  of 
Florida  said  they  needed  someone 
to  pull  together  the  conference 
because  the  people  who  were  going 
to  host  it  fell  through,"  Kikta  said. 

The  organization  also 
participated  in  many  other  events 
around  the  Tallahassee  area 
including  a  food  drive  for  Big  Bend 
Cares,  NAACP  week,  the  Jewish 
Student  Union  Holocaust 
memorial  and  the  multicultural 
potluck  dinner  with  the  Black 
Student  Union. 

"The  gay  and  lesbian 
community  is  in  a  very  unique 
position,"  Kikta  said.  "My  firm 
belief  is  for  any  of  the  minority 
groups  to  actually  get  their 
initiatives  across,  they  have  to 
work  together.  LGBSU  is  in  a 
position  to  bring  together  all  these 
minorities  because  we're  involved, 
we're  here  in  any  one  of  these 
minority  groups."

The  30  person

"By  studying  the  history

Polo  said. 

The  Geology  Club  also 
began  working  toward  providing 
students  with  scholarships  and

would    allow    up    and   coming

of  the  University's  athletic 
teams  went  to  local  grade 
schools  to  persuade  youngsters 
to   "Just    Say   No"    to   drugs. 

"I  was  surprised  when  I 
realized  just  how  much  these 
children  knew  about  drugs  and 
alcohol,"  Vice  President  Effie 
Daher  said. 

Another  highlight  tor  the 
club  was  the  AIDS  Quilt's  visit  to 
Tallahassee  in  October.  Due  to 
Golden  Key's  high  involvement  in 
this  program  and  activities  related 
to  AIDS  education,  members  felt 
they  were  giving  knowledge  to 
their  community. 

Before  the  initiation 
commenced,  Golden  Key  honored 
Matthew  BreenMolter.  A  devoted 
premedical  student,  Molter's  life 
was  tragically  taken  almost  two 
months  prior  to  the  reception  date. 
There  to  receive  the  "In 
Memorium"  award  was  Molter's 
mother,  maternal  grandparents, 
sister  and  girlfriend. 

A  treasured  son,  brother 
and  friend,  Molter  was 
remembered  for  his  academic 
achievements,  for  his  love  for  life 
and  his  perseverance. 

"Matthew  was  a  great 
inspiration  to  me  and  to  all  who 
were  fortunate  enough  to  have 
known  him,"  Stefany  Kachman, 
Molter's  girlfriend,  said.  "I  am  very 
pleased  to  know  that  Golden  Key  is 
honoring  him  tonight,  as  I  cannot 
put  into  words  Matthew's  pride 
when  it  came  to  being  a  Seminole. 
Simply,  he  will  be  missed."

SCUM? 


"MEN  ARE  SCUM!" 

Really?  Or  were  women  just  simply 
overreacting? 

Men-bashing  became  a  hot  new 
trend  during  the  90's.  According  to 
some,  with  the  emergence  of  politically 
correct  terminology  and  explosion  of  new 
minority  privileges,  the  typical  white 
American  male  simply  did  not  stand  a 
chance. 

"As  a  white  male  you  really  have  to 
watch  what  you  say  around  some  women. 
Even  though  I  am  as  far  from  being  a 
chauvinist  as  possible,  I  feel  like  some 
women  are  just  waiting  for  me  to  say 
something  sexist  or  piggish,"  senior  Chris 
Lambeth  said. 

From  "Sally  Jessy  Raphael"  in  the 
a.m.  to  "Oprah"  in  the  afternoon,  almost 
every  talk  show  featured  something  on 
related  topics.  The  tube  presented 
episodes  that  slandered  men  for 
numerous  crimes  ranging  from  the  very 
serious  issue  of  rape  to  the  way  guys 
handled  breakups. 

Was  the  amount  of  negative 
attention  deserved?  The  answer 
depended  on  who  you  asked. 

"Men-bashing  is  a  futile  attempt  by 
females  to  re-inspire  the  ideas  of 
feminism,"  Kyle  Moss,  a  junior 
communication  major,  said. 

"It's  so  petty.  If  that's  all  they  can 
come  up  with,  then  it  doesn't  bother  me," 
Moss  said. 

"I  believe  that  most  women  are  not 
feminists,  they  really  just  want  equality 
for  all.  Perhaps  men  who  think  women 
are  always  harping  on  them  don't 
understand  the  struggles  women  have 
gone  through,"  junior  Kathy  Heubush 
said. 

"Even  in  today's  modern  society 
there  are  still  so  many  signs  of  racism, 
sexism  and  inequality.  Women  just  don't 
keep  quiet  any  more,"  Huebush  said. 

The  debate  raged  on.

AIRING 


Though  the  statute  was  long  in 
coming,  smokers  were  stunned  when  the 
Florida  Clean  Air  Act  went  into  effect  in 
the  fall,  banning  all  smoking  in  Florida's 
educational  institutions. 

The  Act  officially  became  effective  on 
Oct.  1,  1992  and  smoking  was  prohibited 
in  any  university  facility.  However, 
University  officials  were  under  the 
impression  that  student  residential 
facilities  would  be  unaffected.  This  did  not 
turn  out  to  be  true  after  the  HRS  analysis 
clarified  the  definition  of  an  "educational 
facility."  There  were  to  be  no  smoking  in 
any  building  owned  or  leased  by  the 
University.  With  this  delay  in  the 
comprehensive  definition,  the  statute  did 
not  go  into  motion  until  fall  1993. 

Various  opinions  surrounded  the 
controversy  of  the  Clean  Air  Act  and  its 
influence  upon  campus.  Primarily,  student 
smokers  in  residential  halls  had  the 
greatest  impact. 

Non-smokers  held  their  own 
opinions,  detailing  the  experience  when 
living  in  residential  halls. 

"It  bothered  all  of  us  non-smokers 
having  smokers  being  able  to  smoke  in  the 
dorms.  It  was  a  nuisance  and  the  smell  was 
so  obvious,"  Brenna  Coyne,  a  junior 
physics  major,  said,  recalling  when  she 
lived  in  a  dorm  her  first  two  years. 

The  Act  was  proposed  for  the 
protection  of  non-smokers  from  secondary 
smoke,  which  studies  have  proved  could  be 
harmful  to  others.  Not  all  smokers  were 
distraught  over  the  new  ordinance.  David 
Rowland,  a  freshman  business  major, 
believed  that  the  statute  was  only 
"courteous"  for  others  and  that  even 
though  he  had  been  inconvenienced  by 
having  to  smoke  outside,  it  was  only  right. 

The  Act  influenced  everyone, 
including  the  faculty. 

"It  doesn't  bother  me  much  about  the 
Act.  In  fact,  I  think  it  is  for  a  good  cause 
but  perhaps  a  bit  annoying  having  to  go 
outside  to  smoke  in  the  middle  of  doing 
work,"  professor  Gretchen  Thies  said.

POSITIVE 


or 


HIV/AIDS  was  a  national  epidemic; 
it  was  a  worldwide  epidemic.  It  was 
effecting,  among  others,  young  adults  in 
the  primes  of  their  lives. 

On  the  University's  campus, 
Thagard  Student  Health  Center 
responded  to  a  need  for  appropriate  testing 
for  the  HIV/AIDS  virus.  During  the  1994 
spring  semester  a  pilot  test  was  started  to 
help  students  find  out  if  they  were  HIV/ 
AIDS  positive  in  a  confidential  manner 
and  at  a  low  cost. 

The  testing  was  only  $5  as  opposed  to 
$  1 5  and  the  results  were  kept  confidential 
only  for  the  tested  student's  knowledge. 

The  first  step  in  the  testing  was  the 
payment  in  which  the  student  received  a 
receipt  with  their  transaction  number  on 
it.  This  transaction  number  became  their 
identification  number. 

The  patient  made  an  appointment 
and  then  was  counseled  by  a  professional. 
The  patient's  name  and  social  security 
number  were  taken  down  on  an  index  card 
for  counseling  purposes  and  kept  locked 
when  not  used. 

After  the  counseling  was  done  the 
patient  had  the  blood  taken.  The  nameless 
test  result  were  then  given  to  the  nurse  to 
give  to  the  counselors. 

If  the  test  results  were  positive  or 
indeterminate,  a  Western  Blot  would  be 
done  to  confirm  results.  The  final  test 
results  were  given  verbally  to  the  student 
and  all  information  was  kept  confidential. 

This  confidentiality  was  the  key 
difference  between  the  present  testing 
provided  and  the  past  HIV/AIDS  testing 
given  at  the  health  center. 

"We  will  continue  the  nameless 
testing  if  at  all  possible,"  Dr.  Jan  Daly, 
director  of  the  Thagard  Student  Health 
Center,  said.  "The  nameless  testing  will 
keep  all  information  available  to  only  the 
tested  student  and  help  us  better  serve  the 
campus." 

The  pilot  test  that  the  health  center 
provided  helped  students  to  obtain  HIV/ 
AIDS  testing  at  a  low  cost  while  also  trying 
to  keep  testing  confidential.

POUNDING 


the 


As  seniors  struggled  through  their 
final  semester  of  school,  they  tried  to 
remind  themselves  of  the  importance  of 
their  degree.  They  would  no  longer  have  to 
bartend  until  the  wee  hours  of  the  morning 
or  work  as  sales  clerk  at  the  mall  on 
weekends. 

"I  looked  forward  to  making  money 
at  a  Monday  through  Friday,  9  to  5  job," 
senior  Sherry  Baker  said.  "But  when  I 
finished  school,  I  couldn't  seem  to  find  that 
job.  Everyone  seemed  to  want  experience 
that  I  couldn't  possibly  have  already." 

Unfortunately,  many  graduating 
seniors  experienced  similar 
disappointment.  Graduates  eagerly 
circulated  resumes  to  numerous  businesses 
and  institutions  but  most  received  the 
standard  letter  of  "thank  you  for  your 
interest  but  we  have  no  openings  at  this 
time."  Although  the  job  prospects  were 
grim,  graduates  did  have  several  choices. 

One  option  was  to  return  to  school; 
some  graduates  felt  that  a  higher  degree 
would  increase  the  likelihood  of  securing  a 
job.  Others  did  not  have  further  education 
as  an  option.  An  alternative  to  returning 
to  school  was  relocation  to  another  city  or, 
in  most  cases,  another  state.  While 
Florida's  economy  was  not  prospering, 
other  areas  of  the  country  had  more 
favorable  job  markets.  Graduates  who 
were  more  willing  to  relocate  were  more 
likely  to  find  a  job  in  their  field  of  study 
than  those  who  limited  themselves  to  a 
particular  area. 

"I  am  moving  home  to  New  Jersey  for 
a  job,"  senior  Mike  Masterman-Smith  said. 
"However,  it's  difficult  to  leave  everything 
I  have  here." 

Many  graduates  who  did  not  return 
to  school  or  relocate  chose  to  take  any  job 
until  a  better  one  surfaced.  Many  people 
could  not  withstand  months  of 
unemployment  and  they  continued  to  send 
out  resumes  and  read  the  help  wanted  ads. 

"It  took  me  almost  a  year  to  find  the 
job  I  was  looking  for.  You  have  to  have  a  lot 
of  patience  and  never  stop  trying,"  alumnus 
Tracey  Gunter-Rosen  said.

WE'RE 

— just  — 


"I  just  want  to  be  your  friend." 

Those  were  the  fatal  words  that 
everyone  dreaded  hearing  but  so  often  had 
to  say  to  others.  The  topic  of  men  and 
women  being  friends  boggled  mankind 
and  has  even  been  the  topic  of  movies  such 
as  When  Harry  Met  Sally. 

"I  think  men  and  women  can  just  be 
friends,"  freshman  Wendi  Garfinkel  said. 
"Jason  and  I  are  really  close  and  we  see  each 
other  as  brother  and  sister.  I  think  the 
closer  the  friendship  is,  the  more  a  person 
just  wants  friendship." 

Most  likely,  during  the  course  of  a 
college  career,  a  person  must  tell  another 
they  had  no  interest  in  a  relationship. 
Senior  Ben  Beasley  had  to  tell  a  girl  he  just 
wanted  to  be  friends  after  he  realized  they 
had  nothing  in  common. 

"There  was  a  girl  I  was  interested  in  last 
semester  but  I  realized  we  had  nothing  in 
common,"  Beasley  said.  "She  would 
change  her  opinion  toward  mine  even  if 
she  didn't  believe  in  what  she  was  saying. 
Even  after  I  told  her  I  didn't  want  to  date 
her  she  would  call  me,  ask  for  a  wrong 
number  and  then  ask  me  how  school  was 
doing.  It  was  like  a  fatal  attraction.  I  think 
men  and  women  can  be  friends  but  as  a  guy, 
there  will  always  be  an  attraction  deep 
down  inside.  Maybe  the  guy  will  never 
pursue  it  but  there  will  always  be  a  slight 
attraction." 

"Guys  can  be  friends  with  girls  but  I 
found  out  it  was  usually  because  they  didn't 
work  out  as  a  couple.  There  was  a  guy  I 
dated  for  a  while  but  we  still  kept  in  touch 
even  after  I  left  for  school.  We  are  just 
friends  now  but  it's  weird  because  he  will 
tell  me  about  the  girls  he  likes.  It's  awkward 
because  I  was  the  girl  he  used  to  talk  about 
to  his  friends  and  now  I'm  the  friend  he 
talks  to  about  his  girlfriends." 

Best  friends  or  lovers;  sometimes  it  was 
hard  to  differentiate.  At  one  point  of  life 
students  found  themselves  just  wanting  a 
platonic  relationship  while  at  others  they 
were  looking  to  find  a  soul  mate. 

"I  think  best  friends  would  make  the 
best  marriages,"  Beasley  said.

It  was  amazing  how  much  of  a  stir 
could  be  caused  by  an  obnoxious  pair  of 
pre-pubescent  boys.  Beavis  and  Butthead's 
controversial  MTV  cartoon  and  music 
video  show  either  offended  students  or 
gave  them  something  different  to  look 
forward  to  on  late  night  TV  programming. 
Beavis  and  Butthead  were  two 
underweight,  braced-faced,  sexually 
frustrated  American  boys  who  grossed-out 
viewers  by  picking  their  noses,  by  obsessing 
over  bodily  functions  and  by  generally 
being  crude. 

"I  think  they  are  extremely 
offensive,"  junior  Shannon  Hopkins  said. 
"They  are  a  waste  of  TV  air  space.  Who 
wants  to  watch  two  boys  belch  for  a  half  an 
hour?" 

Regardless  of  opinion,  the  influence 
they  had  effected  the  campus.  Whether 
you  heard  a  guy  in  your  class  imitating  their 
distinguishable  laugh  or  you  owned  a 
Seminole  Beavis  and  Butthead  t-shirt, 
evidence  of  the  cartoon  was  everywhere. 

"Miami  sucks,"  the  personalized 
University  t-shirts  read. 

"Yeh,  yeh...  Seminoles  are  cool"  was 
the  reply. 

"I  can't  believe  that  educated  people 
wear  t-shirts  displaying  them,  they  are  so 
asinine,"  junior  Ann  Kemper  said.  "But  I 
guess  it's  just  a  trend  that  will  hopefully 
pass  quickly." 

Perhaps  the  reason  why  college 
students  found  the  cartoon  so  entertaining 
was  because  it  was  a  reminder  of  their  own 
high  school  days.  Whether  you  were  a 
Beavis,  a  Butthead  or  just  knew  and 
despised  one,  the  cartoon  hit  home.  Some 
male  students  identified  with  after-school 
days  of  eating  junk  food,  watching  videos 
and  getting  into  mischievous  trouble. 

"My  friends  and  I  look  forward  to 
seeing  the  show  because  it  is  a  hysterical 
amplification  of  what  it  was  like  to  be 
immature,  reckless  and  hated  by  most 
adults,"  junior  Greg  Rheders  said.  "The 
show  is  simply  a  social  documentary  of  the 
way  some  boys  grow  up  in  our  society." 

"Uh,  huh  uh  uh.. .school  sucks."

SHAPING

The  fifth  annual  Women  as 
Leaders  Conference  was  an  opportunity 
for  the  female  students  of  the  University 
to  participate  in  and  learn  about  the  latest 
issues  concerning  women  leaders.  The 
conference  theme  was  "Traditions  from 
the  Past,  Shaping  the  Future"  and  it 
focused  on  the  diverse  roles  modern 
women  play.  The  University  sponsored 
conference,  organized  by  students,  was 
free  to  all  interested  students. 

"The  conference  was  a  great 
opportunity  for  the  students  not  only  to 
plan  but  also  to  participate  in  learning 
from  other  people,"  Advisor  Barbara 
Prevost  said. 

The  conference  consisted  of  three 
different  tracks  in  which  participants 
could  choose  which  three  lectures  she 
wanted  to  attend.  The  lectures  ranged 
from  various  topics  such  as  "Gender 
Communications  in  the  Workplace"  to 
"Images  of  Women  on  Campus."  After 
each  lecture  the  conference  participants 
were  able  to  discuss  the  topics  further  in  a 
question  and  answer  period  with  the 
speaker. 

"I  was  happy  how  a  lot  of  the 
participants  questioned  and  utilized  the 
speakers  for  their  knowledge  and  all  that 
they  had  to  offer,"  Chairwoman  Kandi 
Kelly  said. 

The  three  tracks  were  followed  by  a 
luncheon  and  lecture  with  keynote 
speaker  Julie  Montanaro,  an 
anchorwoman  from  WCTV  Channel  6. 
Karen  Moore,  president  and  owner  of 
Moore  Consulting  Group,  lead  the 
closing  session  with  a  lecture  on 
"Marketing  Yourself  to  get  the  Job  you 
Want."  Moore  gave  helpful  tips  on  the 
interviewing  and  networking  skills 
needed  to  land  a  job. 

"The  Conference  was  such  a 
wonderful  experience.  Not  only  was  it  a 
lot  of  fun  but  also  very  informative," 
sophomore  Amber  Dennie  said.  "I 
walked  away  with  so  much  useful 
knowledge  about  finding  a  job  and  just 
being  a  modern  woman."

THIN 


Some  may  remember  the  quick 
and  easy  diets  of  the  seventies  and 
eighties.  The  grapefruit  diet,  diet  pills 
and  books  like  Thin  is  In  were  the 
beginning  of  what  formed  current  views 
on  personal  weight  and  the  American 
idea  of  beauty  in  the  nineties. 

"It's  hard  to  be  a  young  women 
and  not  feel  the  pressure  to  look  thin," 
junior  Kimberly  Woodard  said. 

So  called  "waif  models"  covered 
the  pages  of  catalogs  and  magazines,  the 
screens  of  televisions  and  adorned  the 
runways  all  over  the  world. 

As  the  ultra  thin  look  became 
more  and  more  popular  there  was  once 
again  a  rise  in  unhealthy  weight  loss. 
Designers,  such  as  Calvin  Klein,  were 
belived  to  have  accentuated  the  problem 
by  employing  the  models  that  seemed  to 
fall  into  this  category. 

"Some  people  may  call  me  old 
fashioned,  but  I  like  a  little  meat  on  the 
bones,"  junior  Paul  Schamoun  said.  "Too 
thin  is  very  unattractive  to  me,  and  I  tell 
my  sister  when  she  starts  in  on  her  weight 
to  just  relax,  because  guys  don't  want  you 
too  too  thin." 

As  a  result  of  the  popularity  of 
thinness  increased,  so  did  the  cases  of 
eating  disorders.  Bulimia,  or  the  binge- 
purge  syndrome,  and  anorexia,  self 
starvation  plagued  campuses  across  the 
country  and  all  over  the  world. 

On  campus,  the  problem 
became  so  noticeable  that  Thagard 
Health  Center  opened  a  nutritional 
counseling  center  and  offered  support 
groups  for  the  victims  of  eating  disorders. 

Signs  of  eating  disorders  were 
nervousness,  fatigue,  excessive  obsession 
with  eating  or  weight,  hair  loss,  gray  tones 
to  the  skin  and,  most  obviously,  weight 
fluctuation. 

"I  had  a  friend  that  I  had  always 
suspected  had  a  problem  and  I  later  found 
out  that  she  was  diagnosed  during  her 
sophomore  year,"  junior  Melanie 
Masiello  said.  "I'm  glad  she  got  help  here 
at  the  University."

GETTING 

—  the  — 


^htflil       \  ly 


The  M.R.S.  Degree  was  not  a  degree 
that  was  recognized  by  the  board  of  regents 
or  by  the  president  of  any  university.  There 
were  also  no  official  classes  to  take.  The 
only  thing  that  was  needed  was  for  Ms. 
Right  to  meet  Mr.  Right  and  for  "the 
question"  to  be  popped  before  they  officially 
graduated.  (The  question  where,  as 
tradition  would  have  it,  the  guy  gets  down 
on  one  knee  to  ask  the  girl  for  her  hand  in 
marriage.) 

Some  students  came  to  school  for  the 
sole  purpose  of  finding  Mr.  or  Mrs.  Right. 
Their  main  objective  while  in  college  was  to 
leave  married. 

"Sure,  I'm  looking  for  a  husband," 
junior  Shannon  Hopkins  said.  "My  parents 
always  told  me  'never  date  a  guy  you  would 
not  marry.'  I  took  them  literally." 

The  M.R.S.  Degree  was  also  known  as 
being  married  right  out  of  college.  The  job 
as  a  housewife  was  guaranteed  and  could  be 
taken  by  itself  or  combined  with  the  career 
world.  In  the  day  of  the  career  woman  and 
Hillary  Rodham  Clinton,  standing  by  a 
man  was  an  idea  that  had  became  somewhat 
obsolete.  However,  meeting  Mr.  or  Ms. 
Right  was  the  beginning  of  a  new  life 
together  with  someone  one  loves  and  not  to 
be  considered  as  an  ending  to  a  career. 

"Since  I  have  become  engaged  I  have 
become  more  focused  on  my  studies  and  I 
find  myself  studying  harder  and  making 
better  grades  than  before  I  was  engaged," 
junior  Tracy  Hammer. 

Planning  a  wedding  and  trying  to 
juggle  school  took  careful  time 
management  especially  if  the  M.R.S. 
Degree  came  unexpectantly  while 
obtaining  a  Bachelor's  or  Master's  degree. 
Some  people  found  the  M.R.S.  Degree  as  a 
positive  incentive  to  college  rather  than  the 
negative  connotation  that  sometimes 
accompanies  the  saying  "Mrs.  Degree". 

"I've  been  teased  about  getting  my 
M.R.S.  Degree  but  I  just  see  it  as  getting  a 
double  degree  and  only  having  to  pay  for 
one,"  junior  Ann  Kemper  said.  "I'm  getting 
the  best  of  both  the  career  and  the  domestic 
world."

DATING 


on 


A  BUDGET 


The  first  date  was  often  a  time  to 
make  a  great  impression  on  the  other 
person.  Whether  you  wanted  to  wine  and 
dine  him  or  her  or  just  go  to  a  movie,  there 
was  always  the  pressure  to  make  yourself 
appear  available  and  irresistible. 

To  some  making  a  good  impression 
depended  on  spending  lots  of  money.  This 
presented  a  problem  for  most  college 
students,  however,  who  did  not  have  large 
budgets. 

"When  I  take  a  girl  out  for  the  first 
time  I  would  love  to  be  able  to  take  her  to 
a  really  nice  place,"  freshman  Michael 
Nesser  said.  "Yet  how  can  I  when  I  can 
barely  afford  to  feed  myself?" 

Other  students  took  more  casual 
attitudes  about  the  expensive  dating 
dilemma.  Some  did  not  see  the  need  to 
spend  an  unusually  large  amount  of  cash. 

Some  students  viewed  spending 
excessive  amounts  of  money  on  a  date  as 
impractical.  With  most  all  dating 
prospects  also  being  in  college,  extra 
money  was  not  necessarily  lying  around 
waiting  to  be  spent.  A  nice,  casual  dinner 
and  maybe  a  movie  seemed  to  be  a  happy 
medium  for  all. 

"I  would  never  expect  to  be  taken  out 
to  the  most  expensive  restaurant  in  town, 
on  a  first  date,"  junior  Chris  Perkins  said. 
"The  more  casual,  the  more  comfortable. 
Besides,  I  don't  know  one  person  in  college 
who  has  the  money  to  throw  around  on 
trying  to  impress  someone." 

For  those  couples  who  made  it 
beyond  the  first  date,  having  a  small  budget 
did  not  seem  to  be  as  much  of  a  problem. 
Some  couples,  once  established  found 
going  dutch  or  taking  turns  treating  to  be 
very  comfortable. 

It  took  pressure  off  of  one  partner 
constantly  providing  the  funds  for  fun.  In 
addition  some  couples  enjoyed  just  renting 
a  movie  or  cooking  dinner  together. 

"Some  of  the  best  times  my  boyfriend 
and  I  have  spent  together  have  been  just 
watching  a  movie  and  snuggling  on  the 
couch,"  junior  Shannon  Hopkins  said.

RELISH 

—  the  — 

THOUGHT 


Jack  Clark  has  been  on  the  University's  campus  for  nearly 
five  years.  He  came  here  in  1969  from  the  New  Jersey  area,  after 
a  stint  on  a  milk  route.  Every  day,  except  in  severe  weather, 
Clark  could  be  found  at  his  hot  dog  stand,  making  friends  with 
the  students  and  faculty  while  serving  up  nourishment. 

Clark's  history  was  as  diverse  as  his  menu  items.  Upon 
arriving  in  Florida,  "with  four  sons,  a  cat,  dog  and  a  wife,"  Clark 
discovered  that  his  steam  boiler's  license  was  useless.  Jobs  were 
already  taken  by  others  coming  into  the  state  so  he  worked  at 
Morgan  Yacht  Co.  as  a  laborer  for  the  Disney  submarines  and 
vessels. 

When  Clark's  wife  became  unemployed,  his  wife  and  son 
chipped  in  and  his  pride  and  joy,  Relish  the  Thought,  was  born. 
After  working  on  corners,  simple  research  led  him  to  sell  at  the 
University.  Interestingly,  Clark  was  one  of  the  first  independent 
vendors  to  come  to  campus  in  quite  a  while. 

Clark's  combination  of  Shofar  hot  dogs,  lively  chatter  with 
customers  and  opinionated  politics  was  what  made  Relish  the 
Thought  the  cozy  corner  between  Strozier  and  Bellamy. 

Clark  said  that  the  strangest  things  people  did  to  their  hot 
dogs  were  lining  the  dog  with  dots  of  mustard  and  twirling 
everything  around  in  the  bun.  But,  Clark  confided,  the  best  part 
of  his  job  was  that  he  would  do  whatever  combinations  his 
customers  want. 

Clark  described  the  students  as  "great,"  and  said  that  he 
admired  the  diversity  here. 

"Nothing's  free,  you've  got  to  work  for  it,"  Clark  said. 

It  was  his  policy  and  advice  for  students.

THEKETTLE 
CLOSED 


Many  students  enjoyed  getting  away  from  the  usual 
places  of  treacherous  and  time-consuming  study  which  usually 
included  the  library,  the  dorm  room,  the  apartment  or  the 
sorority  house.  They  wanted  to  go  to  a  place  that  was  different, 
a  place  where  "everybody  knows  your  name. ..and  they're  always 
glad  you  came."  So  they  went  to  The  Kettle,  a  local  greasy  spoon 
on  North  Monroe. 

After  searching  quite  a  while  for  a  place  that  would 
allow  students  to  spread  out  their  books  and  get  comfortable,  a 
few  students  discovered  The  Kettle  and  put  their  claim  on  the 
booths. 

"The  Kettle  was  nice  because  we  could  drink  and  eat  to 
keep  us  awake,"  Kim  Berg  said.  "They  don't  allow  us  to  eat  food 
in  the  library  and  we  could  talk  a  lot  more  at  a  restaurant." 

Some  students  liked  The  Kettle  because  it  was  a  change 
in  atmosphere.  Aside  from  being  able  to  eat  and  study  The 
Kettle  was  open  all  night  long.  For  some  this  was  a  bonus  since 
the  library  closed  nearly  after  midnight  and  the  dorms  provided 
the  temptation  to  go  to  bed. 

"It  was  a  better  environment  than  the  dorm  to  study 
in,"  Melanie  Nasiello  said.  "And  it  kept  you  up  all  night  long." 

Some  restaurant  studiers  said  they  thought  The  Kettle 
was  a  nice,  neutral  place  to  meet  outside  the  classroom  if  you  did 
not  know  people  in  your  classes  very  well.  However,  everyone 
seemed  to  know  each  other  at  The  Kettle  as  there  were  many 
regulars. 

"There  were  some  distractions  but  everyone  left  you 
alone  to  study  unless  you  wanted  to  have  a  study  break,"  Laura 
Koehler,  a  regular  at  The  Kettle,  said. 

Sadly,  The  Kettle  closed  its  doors  in  1993,  as  they  had 
lost  too  much  money.  Perhaps  the  students  had  studied  too 
much  and  not  eaten  enough.  At  least  the  coffee  was  good.

FRIEND 


or 


During  the  summer,  students  were  sent  a  pamphlet 
from  the  University  housing  office.  This  pamphlet  included  a 
description  of  the  residence  halls,  information  regarding  air 
conditioning,  the  prices  and,  most  importantly,  a  questionnaire 
about  their  living  habits. 

Some  students  requested  to  room  with  someone  they 
were  already  acquainted  with  while  others  assumed  that  the 
questionnaire  would  automatically  place  them  in  a  room  with 
their  perfect  match. 

"I  get  along  great  with  my  roommate  and  we  always 
work  out  together  in  the  Leach  Center,"  freshman  Aaron 
Woodie  said. 

However,  this  was  not  always  the  case.  While  the 
housing  office  did  their  best  to  accommodate  each  and  every 
student,  not  every  student  was  satisfied  with  their  roommates. 

Roommate  difficulties  often  began  when  mates  of  the 
opposite  sex  started  staying  over  and  inconveniencing  the  other 
roommate.  The  visitation  rights  in  each  residence  hall  varied 
and  some  students  chose  to  disobey  the  rules  altogether. 

"I  spent  all  year  arguing  and  literally  fist-fighting  with 
my  roommate,"  freshman  Marc  Favreau  said. 

Rooming  situations  that  were  unsuccessful  usually  also 
proved  very  hurtful,  as  horrible  insults  were  easily  tossed  around. 
Sometimes  it  ended  with  fines  or  in  court  with  the  judicial 
board. 

"I  really  disliked  my  roommate  because  there  was  a 
conflict  oi  interest  and  so  I  just  moved  out,"  sophomore  Karen 
Guilbeaux  said. 

In  order  to  get  along  with  roommates,  students  soon 
realized  that  compromise  needed  to  be  established  and 
practiced.  It  also  proved  to  be  a  good  lesson  in  learning  to  accept 
that  which  was  different  from  what  you  knew,  a  useful  skill  in 
today's  world.  When  students  left  home  and  moved  on  to 
college,  they  eventually  came  across  someone  whom  they  did 
not  particularly  care  for.  Living  situations  were  much  easier  if 
both  roommates  respected  the  other  person's  rights  and 
opinions.

YOUR  BEADS 


.Tallahassee,  FL

After  returning  from  New  Orleans,  a 
student  shows  off  her  heads  that  she 
got  at  Mardi  Gras. 


Cars  adorned  with  shoe  polish  reading  "New  Orleans 
Bound"  lined  the  highway. 

A  sense  of  excitement  filled  the  air  as  I- 10  led  into  the 
historic  city.    As  the  traffic  grew  thicker,  the  electricity  in  the 

air  reached  into  the 
back  seats  of  the 
crowded  cars  luring 
passengers  into  the 
state  of  restlessness. 
The  experience  of 
Mardi  Gras  finally 
arrived. 

Contrary  to 
popular  belief,  Mardi 
Gras  was  actually  a 
religious  holiday.  In 
French  it  meant  "Fat 
Tuesday"  and  it  was 
the  last  day  of 
festivities  before  Ash  Wednesday,  which  marked  the  arrival  of 
the  fasting  days  of  Lent.  Ash  Wednesday  was  preceded  by  two 
weeks  of  parades  and  parties. 

"It  was  a  great  time  to  let  loose  and  be  free  of  any 
inhibitions,"  junior  Stephanie  Bortz  said.  "I  didn't  worry  about 
anything.  I  just  let  the  crowd  carry  me." 

Most  people  were  mainly  concerned  with  coming  across 
their  next  drink,  finding  an  available  bathroom  and  of  course, 
getting  the  traditional  Mardi  Gras  beads. 

"I  couldn't  believe  the  things  people  were  doing  just  to  get 
plastic  beads,"  sophomore  Paul  Lederman  said.  "When  they 
were  thrown  off  the  floats,  people  suddenly  turned  into  savages." 
Mardi  Gras  drew  such  an  immense  crowd  that  many  people 
could  be  found  sleeping  in  cars,  on  the  sidewalk  or  wherever  the 
night  brought  them. 

"Last  year  I  ended  up  sleeping  on  a  park  bench,"  junior 
Thomas  Sterges  said.  "So  this  year  we  made  reservations  a  year 
in  advance.  The  Fairmont  Hotel  proved  to  be  a  definite  setup." 
As  the  experience  of  Mardi  Gras  came  to  an  end,  the  cars 
once  again  lined  the  highway.  Stories  of  the  weekend  faded  into 
memories  until  only  the  sound  of  beads  dangling  from  the  rear 
view  mirror  could  be  heard.

DOING  MORE 

—  than  — 

THE  WASH 


Meeting  people  was  not  a  problem  for  students  at  the 
University.  There  were  numerous  places  on  campus  to  make 
friends,  such  as  the  Union,  Landis  Green  or  in  class.  Local  bars 
and  dance  clubs  were  also  popular  "pick  up"  sites.  However, 
many  students  tired  of  the  familiar  scenes  and  faces  and  looked 
elsewhere  for  friends  and  dates. 

"I  met  girls  at  the  laundromat,"  junior  Dave  Merenstien 
said.  "It  wasn't  intentional  but  I  noticed  other  students  were 
there  so  I  took  advantage  of  it." 

Since  the  majority  of  students  rented  apartments  or  lived 
on  campus,  they  were  without  the  luxury  of  a  personal  washer 
and  dryer.  Many  students  frequented  laundromats  but  some 
admitted  it  was  not  the  place  to  find  an  ideal  date. 

"My  friends  and  I  usually  did  laundry  in  the  middle  of  the 
night,"  senior  Michelle  David  said.  "There  were  the  strangest 
people  out  at  that  time.  I  would  not  consider  dating  anyone  I'd 
met  there." 

Besides  looking  for  dates,  students  reported  doing  a 
variety  of  tasks  at  the  laundromat.  Some  completed  home  work 
assignments,  wrote  letters  or  listened  to  their  walkman. 

"I  spent  most  of  my  time  digging  around  the  bottom  of  my 
purse  and  through  all  of  my  dirty  clothes  pockets  looking  for 
another  quarter,"  senior  Melanie  Leaman  said.  "I  never  had 
enough  quarters." 

Another  favorite  activity  for  laundromat-goers  was 
people  watching.  Doing  several  loads  of  laundry  took  an  hour 
or  two,  so  there  was  plenty  of  time  to  observe  others. 

"It  was  a  pain  loading  up  soap  and  all  my  baskets  full  of 
dirty  clothes  and  heading  to  the  laundromat,"  junior  Wendy 
Exely  said.  "But  I  never  came  home  in  a  bad  mood.  Every  trip 
was  a  unique  experience."

Most  dorm  laundry  rooms  were  without  airconditioning.  This 
made  the  time  spent  there  less  pleasurable  for  students.

BREAKING 


up 


THE  POMP 


For  the  first  time  ever,  the  University  divided  up  the 
spring  graduation  ceremonies.  Instead  of  the  traditional 
Saturday  morning  ceremony,  University  officials  decided  to  add 
a  Friday  night  service  as  well.  About  2,600  students  were 
expected  to  participate  in  the  graduation  ceremonies,  enabling 
half  to  graduate  on  Friday  and  the  other  half  on  Saturday.  This 
came  as  good  news  to  most  students  and  their  families  as  the 
traditional  ceremony  was  known  to  be  very  long  and 
monotonous.  The  actual  process  of  naming  the  graduates  was 
cut  in  half. 

"It  was  certainly  better  having  the  two  ceremonies.  Even 
though  it  was  still  long  it  didn't  seem  as  long  as  it  used  to," 
graduating  senior  Laura  Koehler  said.  "Everybody  seemed  to  be 
a  lot  more  relaxed  and  happy." 

The  break-up  in  the  graduation  ceremony  also  enabled 
each  student  to  have  more  admission  tickets  for  family  and 
friends.  Many  times  students  had  been  unable  to  find  enough 
tickets  for  their  guests  with  the  traditional  graduation. 

"Students  now  get  eight  tickets  instead  of  the  usual  four. 
This  is  wonderful,  now  we  can  bring  more  family  or  even 
grandparents  and  other  extended  family,"  graduating  senior 
Christine  Guard  said. 

Perhaps  the  greatest  benefit  of  having  two  graduation 
celebrations  was  the  increased  availability  of  hotels  throughout 
Tallahassee  during  graduation  weekend.  With  one  ceremony 
on  Friday  night,  many  students'  relatives  only  needed  to  stay  in 
town  the  one  night,  leaving  hotels  on  Saturday  night  open  for 
the  other  half. 

"My  parents  and  grandparents  saw  me  graduate  because 
they  were  able  to  reserve  a  hotel  room.  Hotels  didn't  seem  to  be 
as  overbooked  with  the  new  graduation  policy,"  graduating 
senior  Tara  Hopkins  said.

Last  year  the  University  renewed  its  contract  with 
Marriott  Food  Services,  enabling  the  addition  of  quality  and 
convenience  to  food  service  on  campus.  For  the  past  1 5  years 
Marriott  had  served  the  University  through  a  cafeteria-type 
restaurant  in  the  Union,  yet  it  became  apparent  that  students 
wanted  more  food  choices  and  better  quality.  Starting  last 
August  the  renovation  and  completion  of  all  food  services 
additions  would  take  about  three  years. 

"It  was  time  for  a  change.  As  we  change  in  this  new  decade 
our  eating  habits  change  too,"  retail  manager  of  Marriott 
Anthony  Zariv  said.  "Students  want  better  value  and  better 
food.  We  can  provide  that." 

The  first  changes  last  year  occurred  in  what  was  the  Union 
Cafe'.  Now  named  Crossroads  Cafe',  a  new  decor  greeted  the 
students  as  well  as  a  Lucy  Ho  Oriental  buffet.  In  the  Downunder 
in  the  Union  Rally's  fast-food  restaurant  was  added  in 
underneath  The  Wild  Pizza.  Across  the  campus  in  the  William 
Johnston  Building  Subcity  replaced  the  old  Trading  Post, 
enabling  students  in  the  dorms  on  that  side  of  campus  to  eat. 

Perhaps  the  biggest  change  in  food  service  last  year  came 
in  the  form  of  the  Tradewinds'  Pavilion.  The  new  food  court  was 
located  in  the  empty  spaces  in  the  Union.  The  three  additions 
included:  Carlos  Peppers,  a  Mexican  fast-food  restaurant  like 
Taco  Bell,  The  Bagel  Basket  bagel  and  sandwich  shop  and  a 
TCBY.  The  Pavilion  received  much  business  during  the  year  as 
students  found  the  restaurants  to  be  more  convenient. 

"I  don't  live  on  campus  and  normally  I  don't  spend  much 
time  here,  had  all  these  new  places  been  here  before,  maybe  I 
would  have,"  senior  Stephanie  Snowden  said. 

By  fall  of  1995  Marriott  Food  Services  will  have 
completed  their  additions  to  the  campus.  In  the  new  University 
Center  at  the  Doak  Campbell  Stadium  a  full  food  court 
including  Pizza  Hut  and  Miami  Subs  will  be  opened.  The 
Seminole  Food  Court  will  replace  the  existing  Union  bookstore, 
and  an  ACC  sports  bar  will  be  located  above  the  Food  Court. 

"It's  time  they  gave  students  what  students  want,"  senior 
Randy  Locke  said.  "It's  great  that  they  will  allow  students  to 
have  more  say  in  what  they  have  available  to  eat."

The  buzz  words  at  the  University  were  to  be  "politically 
correct."  Administrators  and  students  have  taken  notice  of  the 
attitudinal  barriers  that  existed  on  campus  and  made  positive 
changes  throughout  the  University. 

Staff,  faculty  and  students  with  disabilities  have  made 
tremendous  headway  in  advocating  their  rights.  For  example, 
they  were  no  longer  labeled  as  "handicapped  students"  but  as 
"students  with  disabilities,"  which  put  the  focus  on  the  student 
rather  than  the  disability.  Efforts  were  made  to  include  students 
with  disabilities  in  all  campus  activities,  from  participation  in 
organizations  to  attending  athletic  events  and  academic 
programs.  The  University  was  working  to  comply  with  the 
ADA  and  make  reasonable  accommodations  for  everyone, 
including  architectural  renovations  and  academic  provisions. 

"It  is  the  goal  of  ODSS  to  assure  that  FSU  does  not  deny 
access  to  any  student  with  a  disability  in  any  programs  or 
services,"  Director  Robin  Leach  said. 

One  of  the  projects  aimed  for  inclusion  of  students  with 
disabilities  with  other  services  provided  by  the  University  was 
the  Coalition  for  Careers. 

"Dignity  and  respect,  that's  what  everyone  wants,"  project 
manager  Jim  Costello  said. 

CFC  worked  to  empower  individuals  to  be  independent  and 
to  utilize  the  resources  the  Career  Center  had  to  offer. 

Dr.  Stephen  Leirer,  a  graduate  of  the  University  and  a 
counseling  psychologist,  said  that  politically  correct  language 
was  a  part  of  a  bigger  issue  of  appreciating  diversity. 

"The  way  to  appreciate  diversity  is  to  accept  other  people  for 
who  they  are-  their  culture,  background,  disability,  speech,  race, 
creed,  national  origin,  gender-whatever  makes  them  unique," 
Leirer  said.  "To  see  all  the  colors  in  a  sunset,  that's  what 
appreciating  diversity  means."

The  picture  below  was  not  a  double  exposure  or  a 
photographic  trick,  rather  it  was  a  picture  of  a  set  of  twins,  Kevin 
and  Keith  Carr. 

The  Carr  brothers  were  not  new  faces  to  campus.  Both 
brothers  received  the  bachelor  of  science  degree  in  criminology 
in  summer  of  1990  and  now  they  both  were  back  to  receive  their 
master's  degree.  This  time  around  both  degrees  were  in  public 
administration  with  a  slight  variety.  Kevin  received  his  M.A.  in 
public  administration  and  policy  and  Keith  received  his  M.A.  in 
public  administration — state  and  government. 

The  slight  variety  showed  that  even  though  they  were  twins, 
they  were  individuals  first.  Their  mother  was  the  person 
responsible  for  putting  such  a  strong  emphasis  on  being 
individuals.  Even  though  growing  up  their  clothes  were  the 
same  style  they  were  always  a  different  color.  Even  now  they  did 
not  shop  together,  because  they  always  seemed  to  want  the  same 
things. 

"Mom  would  always  say  to  us  that  we  were  special  because  we 
were  individuals  first  and  second  because  we  happened  to  be 
twins,"  Kevin  Carr  said. 

"Mom  went  so  far  as  to  make  sure  that  each  birthday  both  of 
us  had  our  own  cake.  It  was  never  'Happy  Birthday  Kevin  and 
Keith'.  It  was  always  separate,"  Keith  Carr  said. 

With  their  mother  instilling  such  strong  values  it  was  no 
wonder  that  when  asked  who  their  idle  was,  both  had  the  same 
answer,  "mom". 

"Mom  is  my  idol  because  of  her  strength  and  how  well  she 
used  her  resources,"  Kevin  said.  "She  is  an  inspiration  to  me 
because  she  raised  four  kids  by  herself." 

Even  with  their  strong  sense  of  being  individuals  it  was 
impossible  to  overlook  the  fact  that  they  were  twins.  The 
similarities  did  not  stop  with  looks,  as  they  also  had  the  same 
mannerisms  and  voices.  They  even  shared  the  same  hobbies — 
travel,  art,  cooking  and  music.  Kevin  played  the  drums  and 
Keith  played  the  trombone  and  tuba.  Their  different  choices  of 
instruments  helped  tell  them  apart  while  they  were  in  the 
Marching  Chiefs.

Over  the  years  the  twins  have  been  able  to  keep  everything  in 
perspective;  they  attribute  a  lot  of  this  to  their  mother.

HIDING 

the 

OBSESSION 


Whether  taking  a  study  break  of  just  trying  to  cool  off 
from  the  Tallahassee  heat,  many  students  headed  out  to  the 
local  yogurt  stores.  In  the  past  few  years,  frozen  yogurt  has 
become  a  staple  for  college  students  who  were  looking  for  a  cool 
and  delicious  alternative  to  ice  cream's  high  fat  and  calories. 

"I  can  eat  frozen  yogurt  without  feeling  the  guilt  of 
eating  real  ice  cream,"  freshman  Allison  Woosley  said.  "I  even 
think  it  tastes  better  than  ice  cream." 

The  local  yogurt  stores  seemed  to  do  most  of  their 
business  during  the  evening  hours  after  dinner.  Looking  into  the 
windows  of  I  Can't  Believe  It's  Yogurt  or  The  Country's  Best 
Yogurt,  one  could  see  students  standing  in  line  or  relaxing  in  the 
booths. 

"I  go  get  yogurt  when  I'm  studying  for  tests.  It  keeps  me 
up,"  junior  Bridgid  Binder  said.  "It's  also  a  ritual,  my  friends  and 
I  go  get  yogurt  every  Thursday  before  'Seinfeld'  comes  on." 

Last  year  the  University  broadened  its  food  service  to 
the  students  by  opening  up  two  yogurt  stores  on  campus.  One 
was  located  in  the  Leach  Recreational  Center  and  one  was  in  the 
Union.  In  addition  South  Gate  Campus  Center  opened  up  a 
TCBY.  The  three  yogurt  stores  were  located  at  opposite  ends  of 
campus  so  students  could  stop  on  their  way  to  classes  or  after  a 
work-out      at      the      Leach      Center. 

However,  there  were  some  students  that  were  not 
willing  to  let  go  of  the  old  fashioned  ice  cream  flavor. 

"I  don't  see  what  the  big  deal  about  yogurt  is.  I  like  real 
ice  cream,"  senior  Scott  Broughton  said.  "Getting  toppings  like 
cookies  or  M&M's  is  the  only  way  to  cover  up  that  weird,  funky 
yogurt  flavor." 

Whether  you  were  an  adapted  frozen  yogurt  fan  or  a 
traditional  ice  cream  lover,  the  yogurt  craze  was  here  to  stay.

YEAR  IN  REVIEW

286  Year  in  Review 


e  we  were 


television  generation,  the  influence 
of  the  media  was  inescapable.  We 
were  overwhelmed  hy  headlines, 


vivid  pictures  and  "tabloid 


elevision. 


In  the  fall  the  largest  story 
on  the  local  level  was  our  search  for 
a  University  president.  Globally  a 


sigh  of  relief  was  felt  as  the  PLC 
and  Israel  reached  peace.  Winter 


holidays  brought  with  them  tin 


announcemen 


t  that  the  NFL 


wouk 


place  the  next  team,  the  Jaguars,  in 
Jacksonville.  In  February,  Pi  Kappa 
Alpha  left  campus  for  good  after  an 


April,  Danny  Rolling  face 


for  the  1990  slaying  of  five  UF 
students.  We  also  joined  the  work 
in  mourning  the  loss  of  former 
President  Richard  Nixon. 

While  it  was  sometimes 


hard  to  read  between  the  1 


;  lines, 


usually  there  really  was  a  story  that 
effected  us  all,  hidden  beneath  the 


gloss  and  sensationalism.  Once 


again  the  sum  proved  to  be  greater 
than  the  whole.

ges  Turn... 


I  can  honestly  say  that  this  year  has  been  absolutely  nothing  like  I 
expected  it  would  be.  Both  the  good  and  the  bad  have  made  me  realize 
that  nothing  can  be  a  one  person  endeavor.  The  seventh  edition  of  the 
Renegade  was  produced  by  student  effort  alone.  I  would  like  to  be  able  to 
say  that  there  was  support  elsewhere,  but  with  few  exceptions,  I  can't. 
People  that  have  never  done  "this"  before  have  no  idea  what  goes  into  the 
production  of  a  collegiate  yearbook.  There  is  nothing  else  like  it.  After 
college,  I  hope  we  get  paid  better  (or  at  all  -  in  most  cases). 

What  I  am  trying  to  say  is  that  the  following  people  not  only  deserve 
my  thanks,  but  yours  as  well.  This  book  is  a  gift  of  their  time  and  talent. 

Rebecca,  this  book  is  a  part  of  you  too,  because  it  was  your  words  of 
encouragement  and  understanding  that  were  just  what  I  needed  over  this 
past  year.  You  gave  this  University  a  gift  of  your  time  and  talent  seven 
years  ago  and  I  thank  you  for  that. 

I  would  like  to  thank  the  many  writers  that  without  there  would  be 
a  ton  of 'fashionable  white  space'.  Regina,  Betsy,  Eric,  Denise,  Jamie  and 
Travis,  thank  you  so  much  for  your  hard  work  and  for  always  taking  one 
or  two  extra  stories  so  we  could  get  this  thing  done. 

If  it  hadn't  have  been  for  the  abundance  of  pictures  this  year  there 
would  still  be  that  'cosmopolitan  white  space'.  Alissa,  Keith,  Eric,  thanks 
for  all  the  running  around  you  did.  The  pictures  are  beautiful. 

Heather,  thank  you  so  much  for  staying  with  us.  The  section  is 
beautiful. 

Emily,  I  left  the  torch  of  knowledge  that  Amy  gave  me  in  the  center 
drawer  of  the  desk.  Good  luck  next  year  -  I  know  it'll  be  great. 

Steve,  I  hope  you  have  a  great  senior  year.  I  can't  believe  you  came 
back  after  all  we  put  you  through  last  year.  Whatever  your  reason,  I'm  glad 
you  did. 

Ayanna,  you're  one  of  the  most  hard  working  people  I  have  ever 
known.  I  have  complete  faith  in  your  abilities.  You'll  go  far  no  matter 
which  one  of  your  paths  you  choose,  good  luck  on  getting  out  of  here. 

Nancy,  well,  we  certainly  have  seen  the  best  and  the  worst  in  each 
other.  The  fact  that  we  still  speak  amazes  me  (and  some  others).  Thank 
you  for  your  time  and  words  when  things  weren't  looking  their  best. 

Todd,  (aka  bitter  boy)  you  will  always  be  my  favorite  "realist". 
Although  you  sometimes  try  to  hide  your  optimistic  side,  we  all  know  that 
it's  there  (well  maybe).  I  wish  you  all  the  best  in  D.C.  You're  an  incredible 
writer  and  you  will  go  far.  Hey,  don't  let  that  place  corrupt  you  any  more 
than  this  place  did.  Say  'hi'  to  Bill  and  Hill  for  me. 

Vanessa  Penelope,  the  pictures  and  the  laughter  made  the  stressful 
days  a  little  bit  easier  to  bear.  Friday  nights  will  never  be  the  same  (who's 
going  to  cook  now?) 

Jennie,  it  seems  like  a  100  years  ago  that  we  moved  you  into 
Gilchrist.  It  seems  like  50  more  since  we  walked  the  Spartan  track  in  the 
rain  to  get  our  diploma  from  Mrs.  Broughton.  That  night  I  had  no  idea 
that  you  would  become  such  a  big  part  of  my  life.  I'm  grateful  for  the  years 
since  then,  and  I  am  thankful  for  the  beautiful  work  you  did  on  this  book. 
You  have  incredible  talents  and  should  be  extremely  proud  of  your  ability 


as  a  writer.   ...I  think  you  only  wrote  twenty  or  so  stories... 

Kristin,  (aka  Special  K)  I  am  so  glad  that  we  were  able  to  leave 
everything  in  the  past,  because  I  don't  know  what  I  would  do  without  you 
these  past  years.  You  have  been  there  to  remind  me  that  when  the  world 
gets  to  be  too  much  there  is  someone  out  there  who  has  been  where  I  am 
and  they  care  enough  to  ease  the  load. 

Robert,  well  you  may  have  taken  the  torch  from  Dana  and  passed  it 
on  to  Amy  (who  later  practically  threw  it  at  me)  but  I  am  sure  that  you 
didn't  expect  to  be  the  one  to  stop  me  from  tossing  the  torch  into  Wescott 
fountain  last  fall.  Thanks  for  telling  me  that  everything  would  be  okay, 
even  when  I  know  you  weren't  too  sure  that  you  meant  it. 

Amy,  oh  -  I'm  sorry  THE  Amy  Shinn,  I  finally  have  something  to 
put  on  my  coffee  table.  ..a  year  ago  I  don't  think  any  of  us  believed  it  would 
ever  end,  any  of  it.  I  loved  hating  every  minute  of  the  'summer  from  hell' 
with  you.  It  was  all  worth  it  when  your  book  came  in  and  it  will  still  be 
worth  long  after  this  one  comes  in  too.  These  pages  have  little  pieces  of 
all  of  us  and  we  will  always  have  that,  no  matter  where  we  scatter  across 
the  country. 

Dody,  I  can't  tell  you  what  simply  knowing  that  you  were  on  my  side 
has  meant  to  me  over  the  years.  As  we  close  these  chapters  (no  pun 
intended),  I  will  always  look  back  and  smile  for  the  times  that  were  spent 
in  the  tiny  office  at  the  end  of  the  hall.  Amy  with  her  scissors  in  her  hand 
and  you  and  I  sitting  on  the  floor  eating  our  Taco  Bell,  trying  to  create 
photos  for  the  organizations.  There  were  days  that  tested  all  of  us.  In  the 
end  I  am  better,  and  stronger,  for  having  been  through  it.  Life  is  full  of 
miracles  and  sometimes  you  had  to  remind  me  of  that.  I'm  glad  we  were 
able  to  celebrate  some  of  those  miracles  together.  I  wish  you  and  Jim  all 
the  love  in  this  life. 

I'm  glad  I  shared  this  book  and  this  time  with  all  of  you. 


On  a  personal  note  I  would  like  to  thank  my  family,  all  of  my  families. 
They  range  from  St.  Petersburg  to  Cincinnati  and  scattered  places  in 
between. 

Tracy  Ann  Hammer  Towle  (I  had  to  put  all  the  names),  thanks  for 
being  such  a  good  roommate  last  summer  and  not  killing  Amy  or  me.  I 
wish  you  and  Bryan  all  the  happiness  in  the  world  as  you  begin  your  life 
together.  Hey  Bryan,  don't  forget  your  cheerleaders. 

Ann,  thanks  for  putting  up  with  the  'Y-word'  for  the  past  few  years. 
You're  a  wonderful  friend  and  I'm  thankful  that  you're  a  part  of  my  life. 

Mom,  thanks  for  supporting  me  no  matter  what  I  have  chosen  to  do 
these  past  few  years.  I  know  sometimes  I  was  a  handful  but  you  always  let 
me  make  my  own  mistakes.  Thank  you  for  all  your  patience. 

Grandma  and  Grandpa,  I  would  like  to  dedicate  all  of  the  work  that 
I  did  on  this  book  to  you.  You  are  two  of  the  most  important  people  in  my 
life.  You  both  have  always  taught  me  that  with  hard  work,  and  love  for 
that  work,  you  will  never  fail.  You  two  are  the  voice  inside  that  has  always 
told  me  to  keep  trying,  because  at  home  there  are  people  who  love  you  no 
matter  how  bad  it  sometimes  may  seem.

Dorm  rooms  were  swept,  final  grades  were 
posted  and  keys  were  returned  to  apartment 
managers.  Roommates  that  were  once  strangers 
waved  goodbye  to  friends.   Somewhere  between 
"111  see  you  later"  and  "keep  in  touch"  there  was  a 
feeling  that  things  would  never  be  exactly  the 
same. 

We  held  on  to  our  new  memories  of  the 
National  Championship  victory  and  a  new 
president.  We  said  goodbye  to  Provost  Robert 
Glidden  after  he  accepted  the  presidency  at  Ohio 
University  and  we  said  hello  and  welcomed  our 
new  president,  Sandy  D'Alemberte. 

We  built  new  foundations  on  the  traditions 
of  the  past  as  the  University  Center  was  added  to 
Doak  Campbell  Stadium  and  Jennie  Murphree 
Hall  renovations  were  completed. 

As  the  year  went  on,  we  celebrated  all  that 

had  been  accomplished  and  the  spring  was  filled 

with  entertainment.  Garth  Brooks  played  two 

nights  in  March,  Bo  Diddly  performed,  Joan  Biaz

returned  and  in  April  we  enjoyed  a  visit  from 
J  immy  Buffet  and  the  Coral  Reefer  Band  for  the 

first  time  in  four  years. 

In  some  ways,  this  was  only  the  beginning. 

Some  of  us  finished  our  finals  and  were  on  our  way 

to  turning  our  tassels  at  graduation.  Some  started 

summer  session  or  went  home  to  work  for  the 

summer  while  others  began  graduate  school  or 

became  a  part  of  the  work  force. 

No  matter  if  we  were  leaving  for  good  or 

only  a  few  short  months,  we  had  changed  because 

of  the  time  we  had  spent  here,  the  time  we  had 

spent  together.  We  shared  the  good  and  the  bad 

and  we  walked  away  wiser. 

No  matter  what  our  personal  experiences 

had  been,  we  had  grown.  Together  we  had  raised 

our  consciousnesses,  spread  awareness  and  built 

onto  our  foundation  of  knowledge  both  inside  and 

outside  the  classroom. 

It  was  impossible  to  measure  exactly  what 

each  individual  gained  from  the  year;  we  all  had 

our  own  expectations  and  dreams.  However,  we 

found  that  there  was  a  common  thread  through 

each  of  our  lives;  each  was  a  piece  of  the  cloth 

that  kept  the  University  woven  together.  As  we 

linked  the  pieces  together,  we  found  that  the  sum 

of  the  parts  is  greater  than  the  whole.
