Ultimate All Night Bash m On Friday, March 27, 1998, the Union Activities Board held its annual Ultimate AllNight Bash in the Talley Student Center. The event, with the theme of Clowning Around All Night, was held from 8pm - 2am. The event, which is the largest the UAB hosts, was a huge success. Attendees paid a $1 entrance fee, or brought 2 canned food items, and got to enjoy all activities inside for free. These activities included large carnival games of sumo wrestling, jousting and bungee run, a social dance workshop, fortune tellers, palm reading, clowns, caricatures and instant tat- toos. A DJ was also spinning out music to create a club type atmosphere. Free food and drinks also came along with admission. For those who prefer a relaxed atmosphere, there was a coffeehouse in the basement with a jazz band and several a cappella groups performing. This year ' s ' bash was organized primar- ily by Akira Morita, UAB ' s vice president. Alpha Phi Omega, a service fraternity, and Circle K had volunteers help out with the event. As the AllNight Bash is an annual event, most of the money to support costs come from student fees. The entrance fee also went to help defraying some of the cost. Canned foods donated went to various chari- ties. Student Life

Centennial Campus The future is taking shape on the NC State Centennial ICampus surrounding Lake Raleigh, adjacent to the current NC Sate campus. The Centennial Campus will include 12 academic clusters, a new concept that incorporates an edu- cational center with corporate, service, recreation and resi- dential centers nearby. A championship-caliber golf course is planned, and three cross-country trails were opened [recently. In only 10 years since its inception, NC State ' s [Centennial Campus is rapidly emerging as a mixed-use aca- demic village for corporate, government and university part- nerships in research and development. Faculty and stu- dents on the 1000-acre campus already have attracted more than $100 million in funding for collaborative research pro- Ijects. Architecturally, the campus will be a carefully planned Imix of university and private facilities. Already, NC State ' s world-famous College of Textiles has moved into its new facility on Centennial Campus, becoming the first education- lal hub in the initial academic cluster. Centennial Campus gives NC State limitless opportu ni- |ties to expand and broaden its worldwide appeal. The National Weather Service and Bayer are among [the many companies and services that have offices in the beautifully built buildings on Centennial Campus. Beyond the classroom, students can enjoy a snack at the Shuttle Inn or Century Shop, a stroll across the grassy greens of the courtyard, or a stop at the Textiles library on Centennial |Campus. The Wolfline, NC State ' s transportation system, runs [frequent stops between main campus, fraternity court, and [park and rides over to Centennial Campus. For those looking for a peaceful, scenic college campus jatmosphere, Centennial Campus is the place to be.
