U8 Ling We Can Get A Little EXCITED Welcome to ODU! Faces come and faces go but some things never change. The Spirit of ODU carries through from year to year. In fact, it GROWS every year; we get excited and pass it to those around us. Everyone catches it sooner or later we've all been bitten by the Big Blue Beast - and it shows! It shows when we paint our faces with blue and silver paw prints, as well as when we help strangers A student poses as Freddy Kruger from HHightmare on Elm Street during the Met-Life Classici tC.

It's also what pushes us over the edge of Hnormal. With it, we stretch possibilities to include those things we never thought of before. We can suc- ceed because our excitement carries us past our previous lim- itations. Boundaries that once closed us in become goals for us to reach and exceed. Spirit is what sustains us when we're un- sure ofthe outcome; we keep on doing our best anyway. Here we're learning new skills. Mistakes are inevitable, but without trying we might nev- er learn what unlimited poten- tial we possess. If we can reach for the extremes ofour abilities, we will take with us more satis- faction than if we had llplayed it safe. This Spirit is what makes us special. It's what gets us excit- ed!

Fisher Showing the way he gets spirited, this f- ' unknown student runs the field during P -.-i hamime. 0i Copelandy 01915111110 5 There's No Shortage of T ALENT Another thing we're excited about is all the talent around here. Excellence is the 80's atti- tude, and we've got it! Its what pushes us to try new things. It gives us encouragement to work hard at what we do. Wheth- er we're playing hard or study- ing hard, ODU offers many out- lets for talent. From the athletic depart- ment to zoology, and every- where in between, faculty and fellow students help each other get the best out of themselves. Professors push us towards ever greater achievements, ex- tra-curricular groups give us a chance to practice our skills and develop new hobbies.-Our athletes are national and re- gional winners - and Olympic contestants as well!

We encourage each other to reach greater heights, to gojust a little farther, or try something new. For some of us this may be our great chance to be recog- nized as one of the best, and we have done it here. Julene M.

Where does your life as a solid citizen of the academic community end and your fast and loose existence as a party animal begin? When are you learning, and when are you having fun? Some- times you're a student, and other times youore an employee. It's not easy to figure out, is it? Don't worry, you'vejust gone Over The Edge. You aren't exclusively a student: You have job, a family, a mid-term, and an urge to go wild. Should you study or go out on the town - see a dumb horror movie or attend an educational event ypreferably one with refreshments? Bal- ancing these opposed but somehow related interests is what makes college life dynamic. Philip Read y STUDENT LIFE 7 Fun Carries On Through Sunny, hot, and humid . . . a weather forecast? No, this isjust . summer around campus. Although according to stu- dent Molly Gray, iiThe session seemed rather relaxed because there was less of a load, - the pace is heightened somewhat. I guess it makes more sense - studying for one class is much easier than studying for five or six or even seven at a time. Since the dorms are closed for the summer, except for athlet- ic camps and Preview, the cam- pus is relatively calm. The hur- ried atmosphere has left along with the students. The extracur- ricular activities have been halted until the reqular fall semester, and time can be devoted to Class work. Summerjobs seem to be the most common activity among students. Making money during those three months is a must if the costs of tuition, books, and parking stickers are to be paid. Whether the summer is spent working, relaxing or studying is left up to each student to decide. According to most, summer vaca- tion is a time to slow down the pace and take it easy until the fall semester begins once again.

The event was a breeze, a lot of breeze in fact, which ., failed to blow away swarms of stinging insects. Fortunately, those who went were more likely to be stung by enthusi- asm than by yellowjackets. Over 100 student organizations set . up tables on the campus mall to pro- mote themselves. By activity hour, the area was so crowded that it was impossi- , ble to move against the rising tide of on- e lookers. If you went with the flow, you could dunk a student senator ta mysteri- u ously popular attractioni, record a hit i ' song with the Student Activities Council '7 and Tran Star, watch a martial arts dem- i onstration, or rally to the occasion with A Walk On The Wild Side Big Blue and the cheerleaders. Free prizes were a popular bonus. Few left without some small token - a pencil, decorative plastic bag, or box of health and beauty aids provided by ex- hibitors. The Hardees's Hot Air Balloon Team gave out 200 helium balloons alone! According to Scott B. Harrison, act- ing assistant director, Student Activities office, itMain Street is the only true, tradi- tional, annual, anticipated type of event on campus which is one of the major reasons for its ever-increasing populari- ty and attendance. Demand for the event has been so great that, for the first time, a second Main Street was hosted in Webb Center January 19.

T hey are a great way to shake the pounds off while having a lot of fun. ODU has sponsored numer- ous sucessful dances this year.

How may we further examine the issue? Possibly by creating a comfort- able learningrsharing situation where students may express their feelings on the subject. Hmmm so midway through first semester a meeting led by a panel of four students, all male, two white, two black, with a black moderator was held in the Midrise Pit. Sounds discriminatory just by the make-up of the panel. having neither women nor international students represented should raise a few eyebrows. Student Body President, Doug Tu- dor; Commentary Editor of The Mace and Crown, Robert Lewis; Past President of the Black Greek Council, now called National Panhellenic, Kevin McHeill; and Midrise Resident Advisor Joe Pauldine were our panel members led by modera- tor Jason Duley, who is a former Na- tional Panhellenic president. Faculty members were present and did partici- Stephanie Snowden listens intently as her ques- tion is answered. lC. T homasj pate in the discussion a great deal, but the focus was on students. The audience was composed of approximately 150 persons. Ten percent of ODU's student population is black, but the audience consisted of only 20 whites, which was discouraging according to Jason Carter who added, llltts the whites we were real- ly trying to reach. The meeting was a positive experi- ence and some thought-provoking par- allels were drawn. How does it feel to be a black student at ODU? How would it feel to be a white student at Norfolk State University? Of the Communications ma- jors I spoke with, all found the classes they take at Norfolk State are a really neat learning experience. Although some changes would be made before another panel convened with increased publicity and a more di- verse selection of panel members, this was a productive way to allow students to voice their views and continue reach- ing students. a Heidi Shiner NJdiSCILSS blacks aria Whl on W ONPAY NITE TQM m mm: . 3.53 Standing Room Only!

And ODU is not immune to the conta- gious commitment to getting in shape, staying in shape and showing off that shape. It seems that almost everybody is exercising their right to have a more healthy and attractive body. The HPE building overflows with busy bodies enlarging their muscies ev- ery day.

But is it SPRING??? At ODU March 4th is not quite spring. The overwhelming opinion was that the beginning of March wasjust too early; especially since the week before was a winter wonderland with two e count 'em, two - separate snow storms which left the Hampton Roads area vir- tually immobilized. Students enjoyed the extra break when President Spong cancelled classes on Friday February 24th, and the snow provided the perfect spur to students planning their escape. Florida beaches and other southern latitudes are the most popular destinav tions during the classic-party-'til-you- drop week of festivities. The snow also conjured up dreams of ski lifts for those who truly love winter. Yet ODU students were mostly by themselves at resorts which cater to college vacationers later in the season. Then there were those who chose to stay in the area, either to just relax in their own homes, catch up on some studying, or to save meager funds. No matter what time of year it comes, Spring Break is a welcome relief. As one student observed, it's what you look forward to from the beginning ofthe semester, and what you wish you were doing again when exams roll around.

You're a typical student if you pay and you pay, but it's howyou pay thatmakes you unusual. Most students take the typical route - waitressing and waitering, bussing tables, washing dishes, or delivering pizzas. Among us are some of Hampton Roads' finest store clerks and mainte- nance people. Other part-time occupations are slightly olf-beat. A few of us opt for a small stipend and the wealth of experi- ence a paying position in a student orga- nization offers.

In 1976, he was appointed to serve on a select committee investigat- ing the circumstances surrounding the deaths of President John F. Kennedy and King. Stokes has been named by ED- ony magazine as one of the 100 most in- fluential black Americans each year since 1971; and, in 1979 he was awarded Ebonys Martin Luther King Award for, dedication to ideas that characterized the life of King. Stokes called upon listeners to truly reHect on the importance of remember- ing King's struggles. HKing's holiday is a call of conscience. Hot commerce, said Stokes. He demanded that America live up to its creed, ttWe hold these truths to be self-evident; that all men are created equallt Stokes added, HWe need to gain strength from Dr. King's vic- tories.

Whether you want to swing, stroke, dunk, or dive, baseball, rowing, basketball, and swim- ming provide an outlet. Indeed, the University moved closer to establishing its goal of a football team in the 1988-89 aca- demic year than during any other in its 59-year history. What? Was that you cheering?

Thomasi AKINGTHAT GOA. soccer at it's best It was a season of close calls for the men's soccer team, which finished up the 1988 season with a 11-5-5 record. They barely missed out on win- ning the Sun Belt Conference ,. Tournament for the second straight season after losing to South Florida in the champi- onship game on penalty kicks. The five losses all were by one goal, with two of them being decided in the last minute of play. The men, however, did well considering th ree of those losses came to teams invited to the NCAA tournament. Ti thought we played well throughout the season, said Head Coach Mike Berticelli. HCIiven the quality of our oppo- nents and the way we lost those five games, if you take three minutes off the season we could have only had two losses and been in the NCAA tournament. I feel this is prob- ably the best soccer team we've had in five years. Leading the way was senior Sean Crowley who virtually re- T wrote the record book in one 4 season. Crowley broke the ca- . reer goal mark with 56, the ca- reer assist mark with 52 and shatter- ed the career point mark with 104, becoming the only player ever to score more than 100 points in a ca- reer. He won a host of post-season honors including first team Aca- demic All-American, All-Sun Belt, AIl-State and All-South Atlantic. Crowley also was named the MVP of the Sun Belt Conference Touma- ment and the Met Life Soccer Clas- sic.

The Lady Monarchs have made six appearances in the championship game, win- ning four times. ODU is the only Division I program to repeat as national champions. Although ODU boasted a near-perfect record, the road to the Final Four was certainly not smooth. Early in the season the 2nd ranked Lady Monarchs up- set then first-ranked North Caro- lina at Chapel Hill in a 4-0 deci- sion to claim and hold on to the Ho. 1 ranking for the rest of the season. When the Lady Monarchs lost to the Tar Heels in a grueling 2-1 overtime decision at Fore- man Field on Oct. 21, the stage was set for a clash ofwills during the regional playoffs. Although the scores repeated themselves, history did not and ODU ad- vanced t0 the semi-final against Pennsylvania the following - SPORTS weekend. There, ODU demon- strated optimal finesse by scor- ing four quick and unanswered goals against the University of Iowa. Although the Hawkeyes scored first, ODU's patience and poise squelched all hopes of an Iowa victory when Maaike Hil- brand scored to tie up the game with less than 50 seconds of the first half remaining. ODU came out fired up in the second-half and Mary Beth Mahoneyts goal lassisted by Wendy Gulclenl off of a penalty comer sealed the fate of the Hawkeyes.

Olympic athlete on the 1988 Field Hockey Team. Yogi played field hockey for Kempsville High School, and when she reached her senior year she set a goal that would take ten years to reach; she wanted to go to the Olympics. 50 at 18, Yogi began college at ODU and trained under Head Field Hockey Coach Beth Anders. She is a good mentor, said Hightower. While conditioning herself and being coached by Anders, Yogi began the series of camps that advance an athlete to the field hockey team for the US. in 1985. In 1984, Yogi was chosen as a first alternate to the team. She almost gave up, but decided to try again and succeeded in making the 1988 team. During the Olympics the team would rise around 8 am. After breakfast some would grab a couple more hours sleep, some took walks, some went to the Olympic Village. On days off the athletes rested, spent the day with new friends, or swapped pins - a popular pastime for Olympic athletes. lll made friends from all over the world, she says. Yogi explains, NSometimes you ask yourself: Why am I doing this? Once you get to the Olym- pics, you say this is why. Belinda Roper Yogi High to wer displays intense concentra- tion before a game.

It's the ODU Martial Arts Club workout on Monday and Wednesday nights. These group workout sessions include ODU P. E. classes, community outreach participants, a self-de- tense class for the handicapped, and other students who like to practice martial arts. Begun in 1975, the program is directed by Sensei Tesskin Ha- mada with assistance from Black belts Kim Baylor and Donna Daubert, as well as other stu- dents. The program's purpose is to teach the various schools about lighting and weaponing such as Daratedo, Judo, Kendo, and Hihido, to name a few. Em- phasis is placed on physical en- durance, humility, respect, and the preservation of traditional et- iquette and forms, or Kata. Kata are individual series of attack, defense and counter-attack techniques. Students enter the dojo ttraining halll in bare feet wearing a gi, a uniform in the style of traditional Oriental clothing. Rank is denoted by the Karate requires intense concentra- tion, as shown by this group of stu- dents. tB. MacCormackl - SPORTS color of the belt worn at the waist: white for beginners, then yellow, green, blue, brown and black. The Martial Arts Club often holds demonstrations at Webb Center, the Gym, dorms, and at a nearby school. There are also weekend camps and clinics. Says Bles Mathews, a black belt and former president of the club, iiThey are great because they provide intensive training and exposure to new techniques, plus you get to meet a lot of peo- ple from other organizations who share the same interest. There is also an opportunity for cultural exchange. We have many students from Japan at ODU who study martial arts. Over the summer the club spon- sors a trip to Japan. This is main ly for the more advanced stu- dents who will undergo intensive training with the Japanese at Mu- hogawa, as well as get a chance to see their country. While martial arts is not for everyone tthe risk of personal in- jury is involvedl, skills learned in the dojo are valuable to every- day life. Karate, for example, is a very effective way of defending yourself should the need ever arise, and it is good exercise. But it is more than that. It is the focu- sing of mind and muscle into the precision of each movement with maximum power and fluid grace. It is physically challenging, espe- cially to beginners. It is breaking through barriers and setting new goals, enduring adversity and overcoming all obstacles. Bill Smith Black belts Kim Baylor and Donna Daub- en demonstrate a high level of karate. tB.

The team struggled to maintain a record above .500. A.C. Carver and Chris Gatling led the team in scoring twenty-live out of twenty- eight games. Coach Tom Young was blessed with a wealth of new talent this year and they devel- oped with each successive game. The big game as far as ODU was concerned was the Tar Heel game in which the Mone archs played skillfully as a team. The then number six North Carolina Tar Heels played a Val- entine's Day game here at Scope and got a large scare from our Monarchs. ODU held the lead for several minutes in each half and was never out of the game. The packed house crowd of 10,506 was deafening as the Monarchs gained a nine point lead and screamed until the game ended with UNC ahead by 10. The Mon- arch team received a standing ovation from the appreciative mob after a hard-fought battle. The team struggled all sea- son for consistency. Chris Gat- ling was never cold unless he was sewing a disciplinary sus- pension. He led the team in elev- en statistical categories, not the least of which were points scored, scoring average, field goal percentage, blocks and re- bounds. The sophomore was near the top in as many Sun Belt Conference categories, and is ar- guably the best big man in the Sun Belt. Veterans Garrick Da- l vis, Darrin McDonald and A.C. Carver also had a heavy hand in the outcome of the season. Next year's Sun Belt Confer- ence will be hotly contested and the Monarchs promise to be around giving competitors fits with our wealth of new talent.

But our cheerleaders give us needed di- rection by pumping us up. Their routines and enth usiasm get the fans in the game early. Cheerleading is physically demanding for both women and men. It is a sport, as well as an art form. It takes agility, strength and balance. They practice countless hours before hitting the court and field. Members attend camps to help in developing and prepara- tion for the upcoming season. They also judge and teach at high school cheerleading camps. During soccer season, they brave the cold to engage the fans and help the soccer team in our many home wins. When basketball season be- gins, they are faced with some- SPORTS times four games per week, yet their enthusiasm remains con- stant. They sometimes surprise us with new routines. This year, at a women's game against Western Kentucky, they did a fantastic performance where all the members of both cheelead- ing squads combined to do the llrow-the-boat and iicaterpillar. Big Blue, the Monarch mas- cot, also plays a huge part in in- creasing fan participation. He can be seen at most ODU games. On occasion he will leave with the cheerleaders to attend im- portant conference games and tournaments. The cheerleaders and Big Blue deserve a lot of recognition and credit for increasing fan in- terest in our sports programs.

Th ey played peren- nial powerhouses such as Tex- as, Louisiana Tech and eventual champions Tennessee. The La- dies scored big wins over Duke, Notre Dame and South Carolina on the road. James Madison, Boston University and Virginia fell when they played us here. There were several out- standing performances by Lady Monarch players throughout the season. Newcomer Angela Jack- son was back court whiz, and for- ward Kim McWalter was a scorer and leader. Jackie Kinney was a standout off the bench. Kelly Ly- ons received AIl-Amen'can Hon- ors and was truly magnificent all year long. She continually was near the top in scoring and re- bounds. The Lady Monarchs also received productive min- utes from Amy Nelson and Lee Etta Cummings, the future of our Lady Monarchs.

A com- peting equestrian? Well, almost. He might have been if he fol- lowed in his sister's footsteps at summer camp when he was eleven. But no, since he chose sailing instead of horseback n'd- ing at camp that fateful year, he has never looked back. Mike, a graduating mechani- cal engineering technology ma- jor, has been sailing most of his life. At the age of 16 he received his first single-man sailboat, a la- ser. This is the same type of boat he competes in nowand through which he gained the title of 1988 National Single-Handed Cham- pion. Mike began competing in lo- cal races in the Potomac River near his Alexandria home. In high school he participated in such track events as the pole vault, long jump, hurdles and the mile relay, but always revert- ed to the water - his forte. Mike Martin, accomplished sailor for ODU, graduated this year in mechanical engi- neering technology. iC. Parkeri Recruited by Gary Bodie, former ODU sailing coach, Mike sailed during his entire college career. When he came to ODU, the sailing team was unranked. But he has since witnessed the development of a very promis- ing team, one of the best sailing programs in the nation. A highlight of Martin's ca- reer was crewing for mentor Brent Barbehenn, with whom he won two Thistle Nationals. Dur- ing his first three years, Mike sail- ed in the two-man team racing event on a Flying Junior. His last two years, he worked exclusively with the singie-man Lasers, where he has won various awards. In 1988, Mike was involved in the fundraiser for the Olympic Campaign to raise money for the Summer Olympic teams. Now a graduate, Mike still plans to keep up with his sailing skills whenever he has the time.

No way, man. That's the men's Lacrosse Team taking on anoth- er school at Foreman Field. This is somewhat historic, though. because lacrosse is the only na- tive American sport that has last- ed to the modem time. If you were to come across a lacrosse game without any knowledge of the rules, you could possibly see the event as a hideous, brutal and mindless game. Actually, lacrosse has speciiic rules and regulations and many of the plays, yes plays, are very complex. This year's team had a sev- en-game season, playing such teams as Maryland University. Virginia Wesleyan College and George Mason University. They ended up the season with a win- ning record of four wins and three losses.

The team, composed of roughly 27 members, is sup- plied with helmets, shoulder pads and goalie equipment from ODU. The rest, the lacrosse stick and arm pads, must be supplied by the player. ODU permits the team to practice on the Powha- tan Field and also lets them hold their home games and touma- ments on Foreman Field. 50, the next time you run across a history demonstration of Ghengis and his warriors, take a closer look.

Among powerful squads from Wake Forest, Clemson and Geor- gia Tech, the Monarchs have ranked as high as seventh dur- ing the Fall tournament season. Head Coach Dr. Murray Ru- disill began his 14th year with a quest. He would need to rebuild his team after losing last year's talented one-two punch of Rich Pruchnik and Jim McGovern. ODU's young squad of only one senior and five freshmen proved themselves as powerhouses. They pulled off two third-place finishes, one fifth and one sixth. Sophomore Stan Jones and juniorJon Hurst have taken over the number one and two spots, respectively, and newcomer Matt Cannon has also shown that he will be a top-live regular during his freshman year. Jun- iors Sean Hoonan and K.J. Stutz and senior Mark Borkovich will contribute a great deal, as well. Freshmen Anthony Marcello, Chris Coulther, Scott Causby and Chris T homson hope to see some additional action during the year to round-out this talent- ed team. The Golf Team traveled quite a bit to attend their touma- ments, through North and South Carolina and Virginia. Overall, the ODU team is looking forward to a good Spring season.

You're in an academic honor society or just struggling to reach that magic num- ber of credits: 120. It makes no difference because you've hgone mental one way or the other. You may don a smock or tights in your pursuit of knowledge or wear no costume at all. Your eyes may be frozen in a permanent squint from staring at a monitor or your fingers might be calloused from too much note-taking.

Some concerts are performed by the department's own groups such as the Jazz Ensemble or the Madrigal Singers. Other concerts are presented by musi- cians from other universities or from com- munity groups. Yet, whatever your inter- ests, whether performing or attending, the Music Department has something for a va- riety of musical tastes. If performing is your interest, the de- partment houses several vocal and instru- mental groups. For those who enjoy sing- ing, the Concert Choir, The New Dom- inions, and the Madrigal Singers all are of- fered as one credit elective classes during Fall and Spring semesters. Each group performs at least two concerts per semes- ter. For the Fall concert series, The Con- cert Choir, under the direction of Dr. Nancy Klein, performed spiritual pieces by composers such as John Rutter and Mo- zart, and also presented a Christmas pro- gram. The Spring series included pieces by Bach, Haydn, and Telemann. Other works included selected pieces from the opera Candide and music by George Gershwin. The New Dominions is a show choir of sixteen to twenty performers. They pre- sent popular music from the later half of the 20th century.

The Computer Science major is ex- tremely popular because of the many opportunities for graduates in the field. The labs are usually crowded, which causes problems for students who depend on using campus equipment. Personal computers, though obviously a great as- set, are quite costly. Long hours of frustration and de bugging are inevitable in order to be a computer programmer. It takes a patient 1 lum-th-dl IithW e i and focused person to stick with Comput- er Science.

Parken COMPUTERS ' Hands-On In Vo-Tech Upon entering the back of the Tech- nology Building one cannot miss the V0- cational Technical Educational Depart- ment iVTEl. What is this place? It is where shop teachers, who work in mid- dle,junior, and high schools learn their trade. They are no longer called shop teachers, but have been renamed T ech- nology teachers and their classes are Technology classes. Not only are the teachers taught here, but also the peo- ple who wish to go into industry. These students learn about draf- tingx metalworking, materials process- ing, communications, electronics, woodworking, graphics, computers, and more - but much work is involved. Ac- cording to William Kane, ilTeacher train- ing requires not only mastery of the con- cepts, but the in-depth background knowledge required to communicate them to students. Students are re- quired to make up a lesson plan and teach the class. Do not be fooled by the difficult work these students do -- they also have a lot of fun in the classes. For example, in the Transportation class students build kites, gliders, race cars, hot-air bal- loons, rockets, and rubber band-pow- ered planes. ln Electricity class they build models for examples of complete circuits and magnetism. Barry Durham states that To the casual observer, the projects that are assigned appear to be of an extremely easy nature. Two of the reasons for this is to convey the impor- tance of different concepts, while giving the student an opportunity to express his or her creativity. Because of the small number of students in the depart- ment, information and ideas for the pro- jects are passed from student to stu- dent The industrial education program offers a well-rounded experience for the students involved. Hands-on learning, challenging and interesting projects, and a marketable skill may all be obtain- ed. This is a program which will continue to thrive and build at ODU.

Copelandl pen Up, Say A llTo provide a more diversified educa- tion, ODU's School of Dental Hygiene and Dental Assisting has changed its curricu- lum, says Patricia Damon-Johnson, di- rector of clinical affairs. She adds, HThe change will give students more time to ab- sorb the material. The program prepares students to do a variety ofdental fieldjobs from adminis- trative to sales positions. Previously, after hnishing the first yearofgeneral education courses, students had to complete the re- quired dental courses in the sophomore andjunior years. This left the senior year for pursuing upper-division electives. Da- mon-Johnson said students needed to un- derstand the core dental classes before taking the electives. However, the struc- ture was inflexible and did not allow for ex- ploration ofdifferent aspects ofthe dental field. How students will have three years to complete the required dental hygiene pro- h $- ACADEMICS gram along with the electives. Despite be- ing one of the top programs in the nation based on graduate test scores, ODUis en- rollment in the area has dropped steadily in the past five years. With fewer students entering the School,job opportunities are numerous. The bulletin board outside the clinic is covered with offers and rising sala- ries. It is hoped that this will lure students into the program. Damon-Johnson feels the curriculum change will improve the dental hygienists and assistants image. Many hygienists are opening up their own clinics and are capable of earning up to $110 per day. We are just not technicians any- more, she states, we are profession- als.

ACADEMICS 1X It Up There's nothing like hands-on experi- ence to really learn what you need to know. At least thatts what ODU wants us to believe. There seems to be a lab for ev- ery class e from music to oceanography. While the music majors are creating origi- nal compositions, the biology majors are dissecting animals. In the physics labs you see bouncing balls and pendulums, as well as compli- cated electrical machines which measure frequency and who knows what else. Ac- cording to most engineers, labs are nev- erending. Most of their time is spent writ- ing up reports after data is taken. A certain computer science major claimed that labs are a Hbyte - long hours for little re- sults. Whether you are a fine arts major or a science major, labs are an inevitable part of your studies if you want to gradu- ate. ODU wants all students to be well- rounded individuals with practical experi- ence in their Field of study. Labs are a use- ful tool to accomplish this goal. We might as well grin and bear it.

The Graduate Gallery is located on West 49th Street on ODU's campus and is an old home the university acquired for art students' studio space. The art department is scattered around campus with other work space on Colley Avenue and Granby Street, which is said to be the premiere showing space for stu- dents.

The Honors Program was originated so that students could experience a small college atmosphere in a large university setting with an abundance of resources. The program consists of placing stu- dents in a small class of academically- oriented students to fulfill general educa- tion requirements. Classes are normally from seven to 20 students and are often required to do more extensive work with an in-depth focus. Each student in the Honors Program must meet with his or her professor individually on a regular basis to increase interaction between teacher and student.

The College can be broken down into three basic depart- ments: the Department ofCivil Engineer- ing, the Department of Computer and Electrical Engineering and the Depart- ment of Mechanical Engineering. The undergraduate degrees can be grouped into two categories, those being engi- neering and technology. The engineering curriculum is ex- tremely challenging and requires vast amounts of studying and problem 501- ving. it is very difficult to get into the Col- lege - one can either apply directly from high school or gain admission by completing certain requirements, main- taining a specified grade point average. Once accepted, grades must be upheld and certain classes must be passed. Most students majoring in engineer ing plan to attend college on a five-year plan because of the rigorous curricu- Wham: 1mm e 23 ems: cum; m lum.

As you walk around ODU, you notice people of many races and nationalities. You many even hear languages you don't understand. ODU has a student body with a diverse ethnic back- ground consisting of students from across the U.S. and around the world. For instance, do you know that of approxi- mately 16,564 students, 15,655 are from the U5? Where in the US? Well, most of these stu- dent are from Virginia, but the top four home states for first-time freshmen in the Fall of 1988 were HewJersey, Maryland, New York and Penn- sylvania, respectively. Though the majority ofstudents are U.S. cit- izens, 751 are from other countries. Most inter- national students come from China, Taiwan, In- dia, Iran, Cyprus and Japan. In total, there are 67 different countries represented at ODU by these students. ltts interesting to learn where other people are from. We have different homes, but we do share some common ground - if you know where I'm coming from!

But some, like first year graduate stu- dent Kathy Creal, stay to further their goals through ODUts graduate programs. Out of 17,000 students, there are approximately 5,000 graduate students at ODU. Kathy graduated in 1988 with a BA in Speech Communications after only four years - quite a feat these days. She is aiming for her MA through the Institute of Humanities and is the graduate assistant to the Womens' Studies program. H1 enjoy grad school even though it means I'll have to be a poor student for a couple more years! she said. The classes, differing from undergraduate level courses, are smaller and more personal.

The population of foreign students that at- tend ODU continues to increase. As of Fall 1988 registration we had a total of 587 foreign stu- dents representing 53 countries. The reasons they come to ODU are varied. Some want to experience America for a semes- ter as exchange students. Others are degree- seeking, looking for a high-tech background that may not be available in their native country. Most degree-seeking foreign students are here for diplomas in the areas ofengineering, the sci- ences, computers and business. Students from overseas are encouraged to become involved with the International Student Association, which helps students adjust to life in America. Abroad students who do not know English well attend the English Language Center to in- crease their skills enough to participate in class- es full-time. Foreign students at ODU give American stu- dents a broader view of culture and should be commended for having the initiative and cour- age to come here and study.

Pettus Randall i1911-1986i, who was unable tojoin various honor societies at the University ofAlabama for financial reasons dur- ing the Depression. While still an undergraduate at UAB, he conceived Who's Who as an honors program whereby outstanding students are rec- ognized and accepted for their accomplish- ments without dues or fees. Twenty-two students were selected from ODU to be included in the 1989 Who's Who. They had to demonstrate a wide range ofactivi- ties and must have maintained a GPA ofat least 2.5 ialthough lower GPAs were considered ifthe student had other outstanding qualitiesi. Each college sorted theirapplicants into byes, iino, and maybe groups. The yes and itmaybe'i selections were then sent to the the seventmem- ber Who's Who committee who verified GPAs, whether the students were matriculatedjuniors, seniors or graduate students, and had two let- ters of recommendation. They then made the i3 nal selections. According to Assistant Director of Student Activities Scott B. Harrison, about 50 students apply each year. Although ODU can admit up to 60 students, Harrison said only about 20 to 55 are usually nominated. Student recipients participated in such die verse campus organizations as The Student Senate, Theatre Arts Ensemble, Society ofWom- en Engineers, The Laureate, American Market- ing Association, and The Maceand Crown. Their community activities included work with the Special Olympics, Tidewater AIDS Task Force, The Norfolk Republican Party, SPCA, The Chi- nese Community Club and even the Nash Car Club ofAmerica.

ODU employs roughly 180 peo- ple to work on the maintenance and upkeep of the grounds and academic buildings. The school also has 29 people on the payroll whose primary purpose is to keep track of the dorms and Powhatan Apartments. This department has its main offices in the Physical Plant, next to Powhatan. The dorms and apartments have their own offices from which they work, so they can have their equip- ment and personnel there for immediate assis- tance to the student's needs. The jobs include everything from general housekeeping to spe- cialty positions in electrical work and climate control. These people have to, regretably, clean up all the vandalism exhibited throughout cam- pus.

Scuba is an exciting skill for students to learn who are interested in expanding their horizons by trying something new, or for those who want to take on the hobby for future enjoyment. Those who take scuba earn their certification and have a lot of fun in the process. Usually a field trip to Florida is scheduled at some time during the semester, which allows stu- dents to enjoy the sport even more. The dangers of scuba are evident on every dive, so many safety measures are taught, For Pro- fessor Putnam safety is number one, but excite- ment is not far behind. Besides being cost effective, ODU's scuba course allows the student to gain knowledge and experience in an exotic sport. It also adds pizazz to an otherwise dreary semester course load.

Every college town or city has its own movie theater for students to escape life for a while. The local favorite among ODU students is the Haro Expanded Cinemas located at 1507 Colley Avenue in Ghent. lts diverse variety of pictures makes the Naro a cultural and social hot spot for students. The Haro blends the old with the new. The Naro's balcony appeals to both couples and the old-fashioned moviegoers, while its sound sys- tem of 1500 watts, 25 speakers, 6-track magnet- ic sound and 70 millimeter film projectors satis- fies the active ticket buyer. What makes the Haro so unique is its movies. It shows mainstream films like HBull Durham and llBig Top Pee-Wee, and limited releases like the critically acclaimed llThe Un- bearable Lightness of Being. Cindy Moore Finance Finance History lhsane Mouak Geography Heal Murray John Nagy - The Haro is also one of the few remaining cinemas that offer double features, helping tight-budgeted students get their money's worth. Students come see dual blockbusters for the price ofone, plus the Haro shows a selection of foreign flicks. The Haro Expanded Cinema is best known among ODU students for its late shows. When the weekend parties break up in the evening, students rush downtown to catch classics such as llFink Floyd, The Wall, and llThe Rocky Hor- ror Picture Show. The Haro even revives bi- zarre films like llFritz the Cat and llClockwork Orange. So if you haven't visited the Haro you are missing out, because they offer a one-of-a-kind experience.

HYou know who he is, don't you? Willie asked me. I shrugged. His name was William Spong, the interim president of ODU. A Virginia man through and through, Dr. Spong has attended or has taught at almost all the major schools in the state, including a nine- year stint as Dean of the Wythe School of Law at the College of William and Mary. He served in the House of delegates and in the Virginia Senate, later representing Virginia in the U.S. Senate. lie also served as chairman for the Commission on Virginiais Future and the Com- mission on Public Education. While in the Senate, Spong helped draft the oPt-cited War Powers Act. He doesn't make much fuss over it, or anything else he has accom- plished for that matter. He has a flair for humili- ty. He also has a sense of humor.

The first day on thejob he made sure the presidential se- lection process was in full swing. The choice of our next President, he feels, will be the most im- portant decision in the school's history to this point. It was Spong's sense of commitment to the Hampton Roads community and his long-time interest in ODU that brought him out ofhis sec- ond retirement. As I left his office, I commented that Virginia is a strong state for higher education. He agreed. llAnd, I added, ityou're doing a lot to make it stronger.

Most students operate on a tight budget and are left seeking the best bar- gains available. Luckily, there are many options close to campus fulfilling those needs. Students eating out can choose from such places as McDonalds, Burger King, Little Anthonys, Zeros, 7-11, Dunkin' Donuts and TCBY. McDonalds and Burger King, always com- Jeting against one another, frequently offer 1inety-nine cent Big Macs and double cheese- Jurgers. Patrons of Little Anthonys can play video games or watch TV while waiting for their order. Zeros offers a regular-size cheese pizza brjust $3. The shop also gives away free half- subs when ODU is victorious during basketball season. 7-11 offers quite an array of munchies, as does Dunkin' Donuts. TCBY has a wide-vari- ety offrozen yogurt - low-calorie and heavenly. On Fridays, usually between 5 and 8 p.m., local Clubs and restaurants offer happy hours with free buffets. College-style dining is not the same as baCk-home cookin'. It's not one of the healthi- est diets, but it is cost-efficient and satisfies a students present needs.

Some students study socially in groups, while others study solo. Some quiz each other, compare notes and discuss their subjects, but somejust socialize. How do you study? Some study until it's all done, but some do itjust a little at a time. Some take meticulous notes while they read, while othersjust skim the material. Why do you study?

MacDonald Chad A. Maclin The freshman year e it's full offun and fear, it's a time to adjust and discover. Deb Hickman is a freshman at ODU, enjoying her first year as a college student. Deb's home is Oakton, Virginia, near Wash- ington, D.C. During her years at Oakton High School, Deb played the saxophone and tuba in the school band. She graduated in 1988 with a remarkable 5.6 grade-point average. After applying to several schools, Deb was accepted by George Mason, East Carolina and ODU. She says she chose ODU because she didn't want to go out-of-state and also because her sister attends school here. Deb says she likes college better than high school because of the independence, being on your own away from home. She believes she will learn how to think for herselfduring her college career. As ofyet, Deb has not declared a majorl but intends to pursue a business curriculum and enter the field of advertising and graphic arts During her first year, Deb has been involved with the Crew Club. On Crew, she takes the op- portunity to stay in shape and enjoy an exciting outdoor sport e rowing! Deb is a coxswain, the one who controls the boat and shouts com- 2, f. rt .1 - ,.

Farken SPOTLIGHT: FRESHMAN Ralph w. Stevens III is a Ph.D. who is assis- tant professor in the Department of Biological Sciences at ODU. He specializes in Andrology and Reproductive Toxicology. Dr. Stevens re- ceived his master's at Wayne State in Michigan and his PhD. at the University of Texas Medical School in Houston. His post-doctoral work was at the University of Michigan, with concentration in Biological Chemistry. He spent two years studying anatomy, then one year in internal and nuclear medicines. Besides school work and part-time work during college, Dr. Stevens was involved with the tutorial programs set up for student ath- letes, being a member of the swimming and wa- ter polo teams and president of his fraternity, Lambda Chi Alpha. Dr. Stevens is presently the advisor for ODU's chapter. At ODU, Dr. Stevens teaches anatomy and physiology. At the graduate level he teaches hu- man reproduction. with respect to anatomy and physiology, Dr. Stevens comments, Students must be able to integrate knowledge and think. He feels students taking these classes have little background in those areas, which creates diffi- culties to overcome the mass of material which overload memory skills. So to get through these classes, one must do more than memorize - he must actually understand relationships. Dr. Stevens spends a great deal of time with graduate students who are working on their vari- ous research projects. The students pick out their projects independently, which Stevens en- Vasilios Makrieiorgos Arlene Manning Todd Marshall Michelle Martin Ronnie Maxey Subkina Mayes Karen Mazzuca Bonnie McCraw Cindy McCrea Kevin McLaughlin Christine McHamee Paul McRae joys because it indicates interest and expands learning opportunities at ODU. The student is able to obtain knowledge, credits and experi- ence through the research, while being able to plan lab courses and goals for the future. A refreshingly unusual professor is how one might describe Dr. Stevens. He gives everyone the chance to answer questions without fear of being humiliated for incorrect responses. He re- members being a student, ttLeaming didn't come easy for me, so I have empathy for mystu- dents. rlis positive attitude is a wonderful in- centive, tiStudents often worry about what they don't know instead of being happy with what they do know.

But if your goal is to learn, you're a winner. Obviously, the Biology Department is bene- fited greatly by this outstanding professor.

Parken - SHELL BOYCOTT -a m a 7m 710mm Although all student organi- zations make vital contribu- tions to the university commw nity, only one organization has the special task of preserving one of America's most presti- gious collegic traditions. The ODU Honor Council has the unique responsibility ofen- suring that the values of aca- demic honesty and integrity, as expressed in our Honor Pledge, are upheld. Although some perceive that an Honor Council's only role in main- taining integrity should be pu- nitive, the ODU Council views its primary responsibility to be preventing violations by mak- ing students aware of the im- portance of honor. Council members, also called Associate Justices, at- tempt to educate students about the significance of an Honor Code in a variety of C ouncil members pla y football at a re- cent cookout with the yearbook stalif ways. In addition to address- ing prospective students at Preview sessions, Justices also help promote our respect for honor by speaking in clas- ses, posting pledges and spon- soring Honor Awareness Week. The Council also at- tends honor conferences in which councils from all over the state meet to discuss their strategies for promoting honor. Although the Council feels that communicating the im- portance of integrity in such ways plays a vital role in in- creasing respect for our Honor System, each Associate Jus- tice feels that the best way to educate students about the virtues ofhonor is through ex ample. Justices achieve this goal by adhering to a Code of Ethics in addition to pledging to support the Honor System. GROUPS Their Code requires that in ad- dition to displaying a proper sense of decorum in all Coun- cil matters, Justices must also Hconduct themselves in an honorable manner as not to bring disgrace to the Council or to the University, as well as agreeing to place the Council above all extra-curricular ac- tivities. Given the Associate Jus- ticest commitment to uphold the integrity ofthe school, one can easily see a student-run Honor System will continue to be a foundation upon which ODU will rest its cherished be- liefs in honesty and integrity.

The Baptist Student Union tBSUi is one of the larger stu- dent organizations on cam- pus. They are very active all over campus. The BSU gets students involved in campus life. There are many events run by BSU members, for them- selves and anyone who wants to attend. The Spring semester saw a talent show and a hu- man scavenger hunt. BSU members performed at the Baptist Student Union Build- ing. Beforehand, teams of stu- dents were given a list of per- sons to retrieve and bring back to the BSU. The students had to get other students that had certain traits. These traits be- longed to those who had Bibli- cal names, members ofthe Big Six organizations and other characteristics. People meet- ing these qualifications were brought back and the teams got a point. If the person had never been to the BSU, the team got a bonus point. Those 'T-w GROUPS captured were asked to stay for the talent show. The BSU participates in many intramural sports form- ing many competitive teams. The main focus of the BSU is to focus on their faith and en- joy Christianity together.

Not that it tries to make you look stupid - itjust documents how silly you happen to look. Maybe you don't think your appear- ance is a bit odd now, but wait a decade or so and you un- doubtedly will. The Laureate is fast becoming a permanent fix- ture on campus. lt distributed 1,000 copies of the first Laure- ate in 1988. During the 1988- 1989 academic year, ODU rec- ognized several of the year- book's staff members for their contributions to student life. Three staff members were ad- mitted to the 1988-1989 com- pilation of Who's Who Among Students in American Universi- ties and Colleges, two were in- ducted by the leadership honor society Omicron Delta Kappa, and two were among only four students accorded Kaufman Honors at com- mencement May 6 for exerting lian exceptional and construc- tive influence on the univer- sity, its students and the com- munity by demonstrating the highest qualities of leadership and service. The achieve- ments the staff has made in the two short years of The Lau- reates existence attest to the value the organization places upon student life. Not only is its goal to chronicle what stu- GROUPS dents do at ODU but to provide many of them with experience in what they will do after col- lege. To this end, the yearbook staff offers interested students the opportunity to learn all as- pects of publishing including writing, editing, layout, pho- tography, typesetting, public relations, advertising and book sales. So, as you can see, making you look silly is a very serious business. Besides, maybe you dont look so silly after all -justyouthful in your enthusiasm.

Besides singers, Ebony Impact has sev- eral instrumentalists, such as drums, bass guitar and piano players. Ebony Impact sings contem- porary gospel music and its purpose is to sing for the en- joyment of others. They have performed on ODU's campus, at Waterside, and even made a tape for Channel 495 first show of their new station. In the twelve years the choir has been on campus, each Spring they go on tour performing for high schools, colleges and churches along the East Coast. These tours are a great way for choir members to be- come closer friends and also serve as good recruitment for ODU. The director and faculty ad- visor is Mrs. Carolyn McCullon, who also serves as ODUls coordinatoricounselor of aca- demic counseling. This organization offers stu- dents a unique variety of opportunities to meet people, travel and perform for others. This talented and enthusiastic group will continue to grow and go far.

ALPHA PHI OMEGA RUSH! it all started with that one word - a word powerful enough to bring nervous ex- citement to the hearts of pro- spective sorority girls and pan- icked preparation to the lives ofthe welcoming sisters. It was a week full ofmeeting new peo- ple, singing, smiling and, above all, making choices. And rush was certainly an apt name for this phenome- non that occurred at the begin- ning of the fall semester. Rush- ees rushed from house to house. Chapter members rushed to put the finishing touches on skits and decor. And on the final night, bid night, the new pledges, with a rush of excitement, rushed into the arms of their new sis- ters. lf numbers were any indica- tion, the Fall of 1988 was a great time to Hgo Greek. With the number of girls going through formal rush at an all- time high, every chapter was l-IWW 454' very near, or even above, the set maximum of 55 members. But the popularity of rush did not make the decision of which sorority to choose any easier for the questioning girls. The decision seemed monumental, and it was not uncommon for tears to be shed and loyalties to be tested during that week. But was this decision traumatic for every- one? Apparently not for one sophomore who said, Iau- ghing at her naivete, HI re- member going back to one chapter because i really liked their colors! But in the end, whether the girls chose to embrace white carnations or pink roses, an- gels or teddy bears, their real choice was a path to learning, growing and giving.

These and many other things were central elements in social service efforts performed by ODU fraternity and sorority members this year. Over $59,000 and at least 19,000 man hours were given to help others from August 1988 to May 1989. Pi Kaps adopted a portion ofTidewater Drive to help keep America beautiful.

Ten Sigma Phi Epsilon brothers moved into the ODU Field House after graduation. Six fraternities and sorori- ties sponsored blood drives helping collect over 700 pints this year. Alpha Kappa Alphas sponsored leukemia and sickle cell testing, while over 110 Greeks helped with the first Great Hampton Roads Duck Race on April Fool's Day to help raise equipment and program funds for United Cere- bral Palsy. Still more groups built wheelchair ramps, spon- sored refugee children and parked cars at the Anheuser Busch Golf Classic. The President's Office and other campus offices called upon Greeks repeatedly to host prospective students, alumni and special guests. Campus tours and help with the Prevent Child Abuse Blue Ribbon Campaign were projects most Greeks under- took in full force. Greek Week showed a hearty $1,700 contribution to The Clean Water Fund as Greeks .. the Wave of the Future'i helped save the bay. Averaging over 40 cents and 21 hours per member, social service and philanthropy are surely a key to what makes Greek life a skip in the right di- rection.

RusselU Wsmm For the past seven years in a row, the Dominion Review, originally conceived by Bruce Weigl, has provided aesthetic enjoyment to the university community. It has achieved this goal by compiling poems, short stories and interviews of a literary nature created by the students of ODU. The maga- zine supplements the litera- ture with quality art work to complement its contents. In 1988, it published its first national issue. This meant that it accepted submissions GROUPS from writers around the coun- try. The Review maintained its national status through the efforts of Ronald Hughes and Amy Whalen, co-editors, and Carole Oles, faculty advisor for this years Review. The 1989 issue has increased in size by 300b, has been copyrighted and has received a Library of Congress ISSPW. Next year's editors, Andy Stone and Malaika King, along with their advisor, Wayne Ude, hope to make further improve- ments in the university's liter- ary magazine. As staff mem- bers of the Dominion Review, they have had the opportuni- ties to gain knowledge of con- temporary writers and can es- tablish a working relationship with their peers. Members of the staffcan also learn various aspects of magazine composi- tion including typesetting edi- ting and layout.

Sensa- V tionalism, name calling and mud slinging reached a new . all-time low in our democrat- ic process. In a year where Geraldo Rivera and Morton Downy Jr.'s shows were high Election '88. Some positive moves are being made on the political front. Officials from the So- viet Union and the United States are inching closer to open dialogue and intema- tional reform. Gorbachev's progressive policies are be- ing hotly debated; will he bring a new openness to Rus- sia or will he get himselfous- ted from the Communist Par- ty? We can remember 1988 as the year it began. Other beginnings are just now developing across the world The student revolu- tion in China is becoming more tense. The Chinese government has declared a news blackout and violence seems more likely in what began as a peaceful push to- wards a more democratic government. Some high-ran- king Chinese Communist confirmed. Some things never seem in the ratings, perhaps it's no : wonder that America put up 5 with the sensationalism of 3 Party leaders are missing 3 and speculation about what 3 is happening there can't be : n to change. News from Iran this year concerns the Ayatollah's contract for the life of writer Salmon Rushdie for blasphe- my against the Islamic faith. World news often is closer to home than we think, as the oil spill off the coast of Alaska has proved. Miles of crude oil is spreading over natural wildlife breeding grounds, and the glo- bal impact is still unsure. Yet we have seen an immediate re- sult at the gas pump. lt's ironic how an oil company can leech oil from the delicate balance of the Earth, dump it into the ocean to kill, and then charge us extra!

The Old Dominion lnn exists g cc 3 p l- J as an extension ofthe university. Jay Scherrill, manager, hopes that the Inn will serve the univer- sity and grow with it. Mr. Sherrill thinks parents and family will use the Inn during events such as Preview and graduation. The May '89 graduation gave the inn a full house. A number of uni- versity organizations already use the Inn as a meeting place because of the hospitality and convenience the Inn provides. The Inn also provides jobs 3: for students and people in the community. The construction and opening of the Inn will pro duce an economic boost for th previously stagnant area south of ODU and hopefully bring new retail shops closer to ODU. One thing is clear, the lovely' rooms comprising the Inn will be :;: as busy as ODU' In the upcoming ' years - minus the parking prob-g'f lems. -' Michael Mahoney 3 ' mmmllllllllllllllllllm ll Manager Jay Sherrill is proud of Old; Dominion Inn 5 facilities iC Parkeri gs... - oDU ICE HOCKEY TEAK i c a u; . 5'09u'ffu'f. DID YOU KNOW THERE WAS ONE? It's true. Ice Hockey exists in Virginia! Iceland of Virgin- ia Beach hosts the Virginia Beach Men's Hockey League. The league consists of teams formed throughout Tidewater. ODU formed its team several years ago, oth- er teams come from sur- rounding communities such as Lynnhaven and the Naval stations. Iceland also spon- sors a craft day where hopeful skaters can show off 24915 Broad sum. Bch. Va. 25462 their skills for teams looking for new players. Hockey games are super to attend. The action is lighten- ing quick and it's a fun game to watch, as well as play. This year's club president was Mike Dimon, a Theta Chi defense- man, who may have the best shot in the league from the point. Jay Kim has also been a standout showing hustle, guts and skill throughout his stay at ODU Last year' 5 team 440-5999 ALTERNATIVE was coached by Jeff Hamil- ton, but this year's team lacks a coach so far. So come out to Iceland next year and watch the skat- ing Monarchs. The team is always looking for able players, as is the league. lce- ' land runs other hockey and skating programs and is open all year. Michael Mahoney Involved 685-5097 Supportive Growing WMVW.

Hoticeably ab- sent were race jerseys signi- fying a team representing ODU. Hot to be deterred, with over 250 participants the races began with enthu- siasm amid rumors that sev- eral ODU students had donnedjerseys representing other colleges so as not to be left out of the tirst-ever lo- cal collegiate bike race sanc- tioned by both the United States Cycling Federation and The Eastern Collegiate Cy- cling Federation. A mass start of over 80 riders in the first race made the par- ticipants glad to see that the organizers had taken numer- ous precautions to increase their safety, including the placement of over eight pickup truck loads of hay bales around the course to protect them from falling into any of the several unforgiving ob- stacles surrounding the course. You could feel the tension as the fans anticipated the worst from this very demanding course. You could actually hear the sighs of relief as the pack came into sight and each of the dilferent checkpoints ra- dioed that they had passed with no mishaps. It became a real chess game on wheels at speeds sometimes in excess of forty miles per hour. With bikers exceeding speed that their tires could maintain contact with the pavement around the comers, crashes were in- evitable. They call it road piz- za, road rash or just a boo- boo. Although individual tro- phies were awarded to the first five finishers in each race, the real competition shaped up over the team tro- phies for each category of races. In the end, West Point and Annapolis took almost all the marbles. All in all, cyclists and spec- tators had an enjoyable time and will be looking forward to the 1989 Tour de Junque. ml mNKN UNVIIHH Abdallah, Jalil 140 Abernathie, Sean 190 Abrahamson, Daniel 198

A Letter From The Editor Well, the olfice is quiet. Most of the staff has gone for the summer and the book is almost finished. Sitting here in the office, I can't help but think of the great times we had this past year. I'm getting nostalgic al' ready! Although I will return to ODU next se- mester, there will never be anotheryear like this one, and I am proud to have been a part of The Laureate '88- '89. It took a lot of dedication and some very hard work from all the staff to produce the book you now hold in your hands. It was only the second year ofproduction, and we had our troubles; we lost editors along the way we had equipment failures, and we struggled with financial difficulties Trying to get a new venture running smoothly is full ofunexpected crisis. I know that there were those who sometimes didn 't think we would make it. But the imponant thing is how this years staff pulled together to overcome these challenges and exceed all limits im- posed on them. They chipped in and helped each other in all areas of production I never once heard 'that's not my job. l have to congratulate them for keeping their happy faces H through some long hours! In particular I would like to thank Susan Free, the Managing Editor. Without her special skills and guidance this book would not be as good as it is, She has been my right hand through all the ups and downs! and I want to wish her, and little Taylor, all the best. It is impossible for me to look back on this year without seeing - at every turn e our Faculty Adviser, Scott Harrison. This book just plain would not be without him. He has encouraged us all, gone to bat for us with the Administration, and helped smoothed out the rough spots. Our thanks go out to him. We know we aren't the only ones who struggled this year; college is a toughjob, as we students know! We have all agonized over papers and sweated out exams, welve met new friends and lost some . . . Its a relief to be done, but it's also sad to leave. ODU itself is also struggling. In a few years the campus and Hampton Blvd. will look very different. Changes are coming fast .. and we have all been a part of these new beginnings, Yet eventually we leave it behind and go on to other things. What will you take with you of your experience here? Knowledge, friendships, maturity, heartaches and joy, failure as well as success - it's all what wetve shared through our years here. Perhaps the pictures and memories stored in this book will remind you of ODU as it was a part of I . m . , I you We know those me ones WI always be With you N CH UVK UK . A- deO J x:- r , 5913'?
