This select group of students works in conjunction with the F.I.T. Admissions Office. They are individually inter- viewed and the twenty selected become an important asset to the admissions staff. The SRC students conduct two campus tours daily, and provide visitors and high school students with a “student” opinon, — which is sometimes more effective and impressive than the — admissions officers themselves. This also gives the prospective F.L.T. student a greater feeling of relaxation, and therefore he she usually asks the questions they really want the answers to. SRC was initiated last year by Monica Rudzik, and is continu- ing strong this year with the new coordinator, Jacqueline Thiell. Both women held the position of Assistant Director of Admissions. Besides campus tours, SRC students accompany the admissions staff on local recruiting trips, many Florida College Fairs throughout the state, and occasionally will accompany and admissions officer to National College Fairs outside of Florida. This program has been extremely successful and has provided tremendous assistance to the admissions staff. STUDENT RECRUITMENT CORP

Heartbeat, The Rhythm Of Life Beta Beta Beta (Tri-Beta) is a national honor and professional society for students of the biological sciences. Tri-Beta was founded in 1922 at Oklahoma City University by Dr. Frank G. Brooks and became a national organization in 1925. The local Chapter, Sigma Psi, was established in April 1981. The primary goals of Tri-Beta are to promote an academic interest and research in areas of the biological sciences. Sigma Psi is committed to the advancement of academic and research endeavors in the biological sciences. In pursuant of these goals Sigma Psi has etablished an active speaker program for disemination of information on current topics. To enhance student and faculty rapport Tri-Beta organizes social engagements, such as, the Annual Tri-Beta Banquet and Spring Picnic. F.I.T. provides the means for pursuit of undergraduate research with an active senior research program. Five papers were resented at the Annual District meeting by members of Sigm Psi. Pam Bailey won the Frank G. Brooks Award for P Sy ss outstanding undergraduate researcher, and Darby Irons won the Loga Award for the Tri-Beta newsletter. Sigma Pis, although a young organization, exemplifies the goals and ambitions of the national charter. TRI-BETA 75
