With more than 38,000 applicants last year, UCLA is the nation ' s most popular university, and is saturated with energy that takes on a life of its own. A plethora of choices await you, as you enter a realm of memories and hopes, of struggles and achievements, of perseverance, and a fierce, primal urge to rip out the heart of Tommy the Trojan. (It ' ll go well with a nice Chianti, don ' t you think, Dr. Lecter?) Without further adieu, welcome to your future and your past...

Any Bruin can tell you that. From vomiting in your friend ' s bathroom to watching wide-eyed as your car is towed, memories of your time here will remain with you forever. UCLA ' s bustling campus of more than 25,000 Bruins boasts a Nobel prize- winning faculty, an incredibly diverse student body, and a juggernaut of an athletics program. It is easily one of the nation ' s top five public institutions. A new year brings change, as freshmen enter the ranks, seniors depart for their next adventures, and those in between continue on their journey through the BE i realm of Joe Josephine Bruin.

There, many student groups spent weeks coordinating and perfecting their extensive routines for culture nights. With sustained effort, Bruins brought back the tradition of Homecoming this past year, marking the end of a six-year hiatus. The resulting enthusiasm from the parade and pre-game preparations helped Bob Toledo ' s football team soundly defeat Stanford, a warning to the teams we hadn ' t yet played. Homecoming was dwarfed, however, by an even larger turnout for Beat ' SC week, as Bruins reignited a bitter cross- town rivalry through Trojan effigy burnings and chants. School pride motivated students sporting blue and gold to participate in the many events on campus. I I ' lonathan Young Daily Br Kyle Craehl Claudia Sun Dennis Oartia Spring Events- Treading along the walkway to Janss Steps, students discover new books and discuss their favorites with authors. Michael Mantel Daily Bruin Several spring events took place at UCLA during the end of last school year. Among the most highly anticipated were Spring Sing, which was organized by the Student Alumni Association (SAA), and the famous Los Angeles Times Festival of Books. Spring Sing 2002, a fusion of song, dance, and skits commenced at UCLA in the Los Angeles Tennis Center on the evening of Friday, May 3rd. Spring Sing was an awesome night, full of musical talent. The vocal and instrumental performers were really impressive, said Elizabeth Morgan, a second year life science student. Spring Sing 2002 sold-out more than 4,000 tickets to parents, students, and other guests. One of the highlights of the evening came when Stevie Wonder made a special appearance and surprised the audience by following his speech with an unexpected, but well-received, musical performance. I remember being very impressed with the event. I wasn ' t too thrilled about going at first, but I had to because my girlfriend invited me. The students in the audience created a really warm atmosphere for the performers, said Nishan Tchekmedyian, a second year business economics student. He added. The Spring Sing committee did a wonderful job recruiting celebrities and putting on a memorable performance. I would definitely go again. Another annual event at UCLA during the spring was the Los Angeles Times Festival of Books, a two-day event that took place on April 27th and 28th. The Festival of Books promoted literacy and included book signings by well-known authors such as Ray Bradbury and Maya Angelou. Avid fans waited in long lines to meet and get autographs from their favorite authors. I thought that it was a thrilling and exciting event because you got to meet all these literary giants, like Janet Fitch and Michael Connelly, said Helena Hsieh, a third year English major. Hsieh added, It was really nice to see such a huge event draw thousands of people to UCLA ' s campus, all to promote reading. Talia Shandling, a third year communication studies student pointed out that the festival was geared toward children to a considerable extent. She said, It was a great way to educate kids about reading and the importance of books. Indeed, there were many programs at the festival to keep children entertained, including face-painting booths, costumed characters, and book readings by children ' s book authors. by Sandra Partamian 18 Events- Edward Lin Daily Bruin Flabbergasted, Sarah Daquioag and LaRita Williams play the keyboard with Stevie Wonder.

This year, the UCLA Campus Kvents staff, a student-run organization, was UCLA ' s ultimate provider of fun and entertainment. The Campus Events organization was divided into four staffs: films, concerts, speakers, and ads. They added to the diverse and exciting social atmosphere at UCLA as they encouraged students to attend their events. Members of the film staff were in charge of arranging movie screenings for the students. These movies were usually shown in Ackerman Grand Ballroom, a convenient location for students living in the dorms. The film staff also offered free tickets to newly released movies, such as ' I ' bc l ' in and Clbost Ship, playing at theaters in nearby Westwoocl. Movies shown in Ackerman included $2 films as well as sneaks. Sneaks gave students the chance to see films not yet in theaters. Tickets for these were free and available at the Campus Events office in 319 Kerckhoff Hall. Among the sneaks screened this year were Red Dragon, Knockaround Guys, and Fein me Fatak ' . On the other hand, attending the $2 films, such as The Goonies or Pretty hi Pink, gave many students the opportunity to reminisce about their childhoods. The S2 films also included popular films no longer showing in theaters, such as Minority Report, The Good Girl, About a Boy. and Li o and Stitch. Rimma Osipov, a first year undeclared student at UCLA, said, I think they ' re really great opportunities to see movies that you ' ve missed in theaters..., and it ' s a whole lot cheaper. It ' s the same big theater experience, you ' ve got the sound system, the big screen, just no popcorn. The speakers staff was in charge of getting famous people, including actors, actresses, and authors, to come and speak on campus. Among the individuals who accepted invitations this past year were Chuck Palahniuk, author of Fight Club, Janet Fitch, author of White Oleander, and Mindy Sterling from Austin Powers. The concert staff was responsible for bringing musical talents to UCLA grounds. The concerts usually featured indie-rock music solo artists and bands. Some of the many who made appearances this year were Blackalidous, The Velvet Teen, and Rliett Miller. Last but not least, the ad staff played an integral role in the success of campus events. They advertised the films, concerts, and special speakers brought to UCLA by designing eye-catching posters and flyers and posting them up on sandwich boards at strategic spots on campus. Without them, people would not have been aware of campus events. Campus Events did a superb job bringing so many opportunities to campus for students to enjoy. The activities they sponsor will only get bigger and better as the years pass, and will remain a popular reservoir of amusement for all Bruins. Indie-rock band The Velvet Teen jams at The Cooperage.

Festivities were held throughout the week, ranging from the parade and rally to the culmination of the Homecoming game. The festivities kicked off on Tuesday, October 22nd, beginning with a fair held in Bruin Plaza. The fair included games, free giveaways, and the chance to win goldfish. On the evening preceding the game, a parade and rally were held in Westwood. The evening sported a ' Wild Wild West ' theme and featured a number of performances by punk bands and the radio station KROQ. Bruin pride was in full swing as floats, cowboys, cowgirls, and over 30 student groups sauntered down Gayley Avenue past an estimated audience of 1,600. A throng of Bruins gathered at the rally, roaring the UCLA eight-clap chant as the audience in the bleachers glittered with blue and yellow lights. Following the parade, the rally at Broxton Avenue included a series of performances by Awaken A Capella, the UCLA alumni band, and the Providers. After a six year break, it was good to see a long lost tradition return to the spotlight. It was amazing to see the crowd full of Bruin spirit and blue and yellow blinkers. Repetitive chants of U- C-L-A reverberated throughout the audience, explained Ellen Kersten, a first year undeclared student. The week culminated with the homecoming game between Stanford and UCLA at the Rose Bowl. An estimated 50,000 Bruins and alumni gathered to bear witness as the Bruins triumphed in their 28-18 conquest over Stanford. The game was awesome, the stands were packed with Bruin spirit both past and present. It was cool to see all the fans just as excited as me, explained Nikki Willson, a first year undeclared student. A tailgate party, hosted by SAA, was held at the Rose Bowl prior to the game, where food and drinks were provided. Homecoming week coincided with parents ' weekend and an estimated 1,800 parents were in attendance. The homecoming tradition began in 1927 and continued until its hiatus in the late 60s. The tradition was revived again during the late 70s before it ended in 1996. Planning for homecoming began in March and continued throughout the year. Ariel Hankin, Director of the SAA Member Benefits Committee and third year communication studies and psychology student, said, Next year ' s Homecoming promise ' s to be just as great as the tradition comes back to LA.

Voodoo dolls painted with expressive remarks were sold throughout Beat ' $C Week. Passion, pride, and pageantry were evident as Trojans and Bruins engaged in an intense battle of rivalry and antipathy during Beat ' $C week this year. The Trojan bashing week, organized by the Student Alumn i Association, featured a series of events including a car smash, rally, bonfire, and blood drive. U$C, often labeled the ' University of Second Choice, ' or better known as the ' University of Spoiled Children, ' is UCLA ' s most bitter rival. Competition between the two schools has been a long-lasting tradition and has involved theft, vandalism, and mutual distrust. Bruins fired up as the week opened with a U$C car smash held at Bruin Plaza. On Monday of Beat ' $C Week, a sizable crowd of Bruins armed with sledgehammers gathered to vent their aggression as they smashed a car decorated in U$C colors. Although I was taken aback at first by the car smash, I soon joined my fellow Bruins in a united effort to bash ' $C, claimed Peter Samson, a second year art history student. On Tuesday, an estimated 1,000 people packed Wilson Plaza and Janss steps. Hordes of die-hard Bruins cheered as piles of wood exploded into flames. The bonfire and rally featured appearances by the UCLA Spirit Squad, the band, and football players and their coaches. Animosity ignited further as the two schools competed in the annual blood drive held on Wednesday. The drive involved several thousand Bruins attempting to get the red out. Donors received free movie tickets, t-shirts, and snacks. The blood drive provided much needed blood to hospitals across Los Angeles. A Bruin Fair and Bruin Night Out united students in their distaste for the Trojans. Both events held during the week featured food, drinks, games, music, and UCLA spirit. As a first year, I never expected to hate ' $C so much. I love the way the week was run, as we fought not only on the field, but also in community service, explained Billy Ho, a first year civil engineering student. Beat ' $C week culminated in a showdown game against U$C. An estimated 50,000 Bruins and alumni attended the long-awaited game. Spirits soared as charged fans donned blue and gold. After a three-year losing streak, the Bruins longed for the sweet taste of victory, screaming at banshee pitch through it all. by Karishma Chullani Events 25 . U$C vs. UCLA Game ' nother ost Like troops diligently preparing for battle, the UCLA campus energetically built up its school spirit during the yearly Beat ' SC week that led to the much anticipated Big game. The Baiins hungrily sought revenge against the detested Trojans after being defeated the past three years; last year, USC shut UCLA out for the first time since 1947, crushing them 27-0. Just a mere 15 miles apart, the two schools have fostered an intense cross-town rivalry since they were first pitted against each other in 1929- Having fought 71 battles, UCLA stood with 27 wins, 37 losses, and seven ties. Even more passionate than the games, however, were the never-ending pranks traded between the two sides, which have gone to the extent of kidnapping, hijacking, and vandalism. A week before the skirmish, the Bruin bear in Bruin Plaza went into hibernation under a chained, sky blue tarp, while across town, a life-size statue of Tommy Trojan entered a protective case to avoid a bloodbath of their opponents ' school colors. Despite having a 7-3 record, almost identical to the previous season ' s 6-3 performance, the Bruin men were ready to slaughter some Trojans. With three fresh victories under their belts and a one-week hiatus, the Bruins, ranked 24th, marched onto the Rose Bowl battlefield and maliciously eyed the seventh place Trojans. Once the warfare started, there was no looking back, as the army decked out in blue and gold, and under the leadership of new first year quarterbacks Drew Olson and Matt Moore and record-breaking first year running back Tyler Ebell charged against the crimson enemy. However, this new triumvirate was not enough to overcome the Trojans in this year ' s showdown. The fate of the game was already decided against UCLA within the first 16 seconds of the game, when USC scored its first of seven touchdowns. For the remainder of the painful battle, the Bruins could only feebly respond to the Trojans ' strong offense with a series of untimely fumbles and a scoreless 29 minutes and 19 seconds. Ebell, the hero of the season, only rushed for 56 yards in 12 carries. A lack of offense, combined with the flimsy defense, explained the disheartening score of USC, 52, UCLA, 21. Yes, the Bruins managed to secure 14 points in the last 2:42 minutes of battle, but it was too late. After four hours of exhausting combat in front of 90,000 zealous fans, the Trojans raised their swords into the air in triumph to the despair of the blue and gold half of the crowd, or rather, what was left of it. Hopefully, after another year of training, the Bruin army can break the current four-year losing streak. With their energetic freshmen warriors and their undying competitive spirit, the future looks bright for the Bruins. Nguyen Ha, a fourth year Asian American studies student, joked, I think I ' ll stay for a fifth year just so I can finally see our team beat SC...this class is cursed.

Courtesy of UCLA Live How can students buy event tickets regularly priced between $80 and $100 for only $20? The UCLA Performing Arts Student Committee, the student subdivision of UCLA Performing Arts, makes this option possible. Created in 1962 by Chancellor Franklin Murphy, this group, formerly known as the Student Committee for the Arts (or SCA), was dedicated to theatre and performing arts on campus. Throughout the year, the team of 25 graduate and undergraduate volunteer students, who were chosen through an application process in October, worked to support and encourage student awareness and participation in the arts at UCLA. Co-chair Theresa Willis, a fourth year English student explained, We ' re a completely democratic committee. Each year we get a new group of students and how we spend our budget is totally up to them. One way the group elected to spend its budget this year was to provide UCLA students with some of the best seats in the house at affordable prices for various acts. It diligently called the individual artists and booked venues like Royce Hall so that students could enjoy the talents of acts such as Yo- Yo Ma, Elvis Costello, and the Los Angeles Philharmonic at discounted student prices. The non-profit organization also marketed shows around campus, supported the efforts of other student organi ations and performing arts-related groups on campus, and produced a variety of its own on-campus programs. One of these programs was the committee ' s annual Playwright Project, which allowed members to produce a student-written play of their choice and present it during Spring Quarter. They were able to cast students to either act on stage or work behind the scenes in addition to hiring a professional director to help smooth out the edges. It ' s great to have student work produced by students, acted by students, for the students, Willis asserted. After a brief pause she added, It ' s free for students, too! In addition to increasing student participation in the performing arts, the Student Committee provided its members with hands-on experience in various areas of arts administration. Willis agreed that the best part of being on the committee was being able to see, behind the scenes, how performing arts works, and what it really requires. However, Office Manager Ryan Cox, a second year theatre- student, countered that his favorite part was just producing shows and bringing the artists on to campus. bringing by Joni Park 28 Events Clarinet player Alexander Fiterstein captivates his audience with his euphonious performance.

For many students, this meant hunting for jobs. This was definitely a difficult process, but there were many ways to make it easier. The annual job fairs, organized by the Career Center on UCLA grounds, were a valuable option available to students who desired to begin their hunts. It ' s a good way of finding out what opportunities are out there, and it helps you take the first step for whatever you are going to do after graduation, said Arminee Izakelian, a fourth year microbiology, immunology, and molecular genetics student. The Career Center held fairs for students in all fields of study, including engineering, life sciences, social sciences, and humanities. At these fairs, representatives from a multitude of companies were present to impart information to interested students about the different opportunities and programs available to members of their companies. In addition, they conducted interviews with students who fit the profiles of potential employees. You should bring a resume, and come prepared to make your time worthwhile, advised Marc Vuong, a third year biology student. Indeed, the best way to get the most out of a career fair and make a positive impression on company recruiters was to come prepared. This meant bringing a congenial attitude, several copies of your resume to leave with recruiters, a list of the companies that most appealed to you, and thoughtfully constructed questions to ask their recruiters. In addition, it was also recommended that students come prepared to answer any questions the recruiters had for them, including past work experience and attributes that made them strong candidates for employment. The Career Center job fairs allowed students a glimpse into the working world, and gave them an idea of potential career paths that may be of interest. They also provided much needed interview and resume-building tips, giving those who took advantage of them a leg up. I think the career fair is an excellent resource for students on campus, both for confidence building and employment awareness, affirmed Karen Kayekjian, a second year biology student. by Sandra Partamian 30 Events - Margarette Lopez, a fifth year economics student, cheerily meets company representative Julia Santos at the job fair in Ackerman Grand Ballroom.

The event united students, staff, and alumni in a night of casual dinner and conversation. UCLA ' s Student Alumni Association ' s mission statement is to enrich the lives of alumni and involve them in UCLA ' s future. More commonly referred to as SAA, the organization was established in 1934 and aims to forge links between students and alumni prior to and upon graduation. SAA hosted a wide range of events this year, including Winterfest, Spring Sing, Homecoming events, Beat $C Week events, Senior Days, Career Network Programs, and the much-famed Dinners for 12 Strangers. In early January, a throng of Bruins gathered at Bruin Plaza to bear witness to the first ever snowfall at UCLA. The event featured five tons of real snow, a lunch from Damon and Pythias, games, hot chocolate, and live entertainment from KROQ. Winterfest was a chance for SAA members to learn about all of SAA ' s upcoming events during Winter quarter, while mingling and getting some grub said Ariel Hankin, Director of the SAA Member Benefits Committee and a third year communication studies and psychology student. During Senior Day in late January, seniors enjoyed lunch and networked with their fellow seniors. Throughout the year, seniors were also asked to donate money to buy gifts for UCLA, some of which included scholarships, vans, and fountains. Preparation for the graduating seniors culminated in July with a trip to Europe. Dinners for 12 strangers, a tradition established over 30 years ago, was another event organized by SAA. The event, held in February and March, featured over 100 dinners and 1,500 Bruins. Dinners were all hosted by local UCLA alumni for students and faculty. They offered students an excellent opportunity to network with faculty and alumni. In addition to great food and casual conversation, the program also gave students a chance to forge links for future internships and jobs. Dinners ranged from small buffets to huge gourmet affairs. SAA organized a series of Career Network Programs throughout the year as well. These programs ranged from information on careers in law and business to those in medicine and entertainment. They also provided students with excellent opportunities to make connections with alumni. Interview with a Bruin, another SAA event, entailed several mock interviews and resume presentation workshops. With a huge emphasis on career planning and networking, SAA programs armed its members with excellent connections before entering the job market. by Karishma Chullani Events 33 ' ' ! tvents around the in one day The sweet smell of Greek baklava wafted up and down Bruinwalk, enticing hungry students to the Greek Club table stationed on the north side of the popular walkway. Across from that, the African Student Union had music blaring from a silver boom box while members of the Chinese Student Association were strategically positioned along the cement path armed with flyers. As a result, the average Joe Bruin was exposed to a myriad of different cultures present on campus just by walking to and from class. Students could experience much more cultural activity through events held by various groups throughout the year. In addition to bake sales, the Greek Club held numerous social events, including dinners, weekly dance lessons, and Greek Nights, during which the club would rent out a building for a night of music and dancing. Even though members had fun, they, like members of other cultural groups, maintained their focus on promoting cultural awareness. We [even planned] something with the Armenian student group to spread the word about genocide, Mary Borovilos, a fourth year sociology student said. Like the Greek Club ' s Greek Nights, the Taiwanese American Union held a similar Culture Night to expose Taiwanese and Taiwanese American culture, as third year sociology and education student and internal vice president Joyan Chang described. This event-filled night consisted of food, shows, dance, and wushu, a type of martial art. The Latin American Student Association (LASA) had its own night of culture called Festival Latino during Spring quarter which included five or six bands playing a variety of music and several restaurants catering to the occasion. This helped the club promote the diversity of each culture, educate the school and the community, and to make more of a presence, as ! president Daniel Goularte, a fourth year history and Chicana ' ' J B ' a nd Chicano studies student explained.

Students came together again and again to march in protest of war, to applaud the miracle of science, and to discuss issues ranging from the legalization of marijuana to the unfair civil atrocities geared toward Muslim Americans. Post September llth sentiments varied among political elite, but how did students feel? Massive protests in Westwood and a plethora of posters spoke loudly; Free Iraq! No matter what the issue, students were involved and helped make a difference wherever possible.

Doctors prepared the twins for their separation by inserting deflated balloons in the back of each of their heads, which they inflated over the course of the next few weeks. The goal was to stretch the skin enough to cover the back of the girls ' heads after they were separated. (AP Photos Krista Niles) I SIX DEGREES OF SEPARATION Conjoined twins find new hope at UCLA Many siblings develop a special connection. Some call it intuition, others call it extra sensory perception. Whatever it may be, siblings develop an invisible link that allows them to sense how each other are feeling and thinking even from miles away. To eleven-month-olds Maria de Jesus and Maria Teresa Quiej-Alvarez, that connection was a physical one. The Alvarez twins suffered from congenital Craniopagus - conjoinment at the head. Only two percent of all conjoined, or Siamese , twins were attached at the head, and in the last ten years, only six cases were successfully operated and separated. While many siblings go through the usual rivalry, the Alvarez twins learned early on that they would need to work together to perform the simplest tasks that babies do: crawl, eat, play, and even sleep. Even getting their diapers changed proved to be a difficult situation, for their heads were joined at the top, facing opposite directions. It was so sad to see the exuberance of babies taken away, said Angie Yi, a second year psychology student. The twins were first brought to the Fundacion de Pediatric Guatemala, an international partner with Healing the Children (HTC), a non- profit organization that connects children in need of medical attention with knowledgeable and sympathetic specialists. HTC contacted UCLA Medical Center and made arrangements for the Alvarez twins to be brought to Mattel Children ' s Hospital at UCLA. But arranging their arrival was only half the battle. The twins still faced the risky $1.5 million surgical procedure. Fifty doctors from the Medical Center, all donating their service and time, handled the procedure. Dr. Jorge Lazareff, the UCLA neurosurgeon who lobbied the hospital to take the case, and Dr. Henry Kawamoto, Jr., a UCLA plastic and reconstructive surgeon, headed the staff in the 23-hour procedure on August 6th. The procedure was more than just a lifesaver for the twins. The information gathered through the successful procedure at UCLA Medical Center was passed to a team of Egyptian doctors who performed a similar procedure later this past year. The twins were successfully separated and progressed to stable condition. They should consider themselves beyond the law of probabilities - to be some of the rarest people alive, said Aimee Yong, a third year psychology student. When asked about the twins, Kawamoto told the Associated Press, The kids were lovely little kids, cute as hell. They smiled and laughed. People have said that when siblings fight and struggle, their bond becomes stronger. Although the physical bond the Alvarez twins once shared was gone, their emotional bond will remain forever. by Jimmy Yoon It ' s great that we ' re making medical advances in the right direction of helping these two girls live healthier and happier lives. - Ryan Hollins Undeclared 1 st Year The efforts of UCLA Medical Center gave the twins an opportunity of a lifetime and saved them from much pain, suffering, and discrimination. - Evelyn Wang Communication Studies 3rd Year It ' s great that they were separated successfully and people donated time and money to help - Kelly Stickles Psychology 3rd Year Israel-Palestine Conflict ' Those Who Live in Glass Houses Should not throw stones A Kentucky Fried Chicken was bombed overnight. An act of terrorism by PETA? No. It was a recent wave of anti-American boycotts in the Arab world. While the destruction of the American fast food franchise was not an act of war, it did point to strong opinions of the Arab world regarding the Israel-Palestine conflict. The reason for the boycott of American goods? America has long been a supporter of Israel, supplying military and large-scale economic aid to the only non- Arab player in the region. The history of U.S. foreign relations is plagued with contradiction, double-standards, and well orchestrated propaganda to dissuade and misinform Americans and the international community. As the death rates of Palestinians climbed past 1500 and Israeli casualty rates neared 500, Jeff Ignacio, a third year cognitive science student remarked, Questions and debates about the [Gaza Strip and the West Bank] don ' t help the casualties and the refugees who have to live in a constant state of fear. One of the most propagandistic efforts of the U.S. media occurred at the Camp David summit of July 2000, when past Israeli Prime Minister Ehud Barak made an amazingly generous offer to Yasser Arafat, who allegedly broke off negotiations and launched the Intifada, a violent uprising against Israel. In fact, it was Israel that broke off the negotiations. A committee headed by former Senator George Mitchell failed to find any evidence to support the Israeli claim that the Palestinians had either planned or launched the Intifada. Exactly how generous was Barak ' s offer? The plan would have left Palestine with a lack of territorial The U.S. endorses Israel and Israel commits terrible crimes against Palestine.

Who would accept an offer that was a clear violation of international law? The United States hoped that Palestine would, while the media projected a biased view of a stubborn Palestine walking away from the offer of a lifetime. The line between truth and justice in Israel and Palestine was blurred by the bureaucracy and the red tape in the United Nations Security Council, where Israel hid behind the political shield of the United States and Palestine behind the ideology of the suppressed nation fighting for sovereignty. While the two nations dragged their feet, the death toll increased, as if the bloodied bodies were marking the minutes that passed d uring an endless diplomatic waltz. Initiating a wave of aggression, Israeli tanks and bulldozers smashed Yasser Arafat ' s compound, the Muqataa, to rubble and debris on September 20th. It took the Israeli forces six months of shelling to level all but Arafat ' s office building as spectators watched on nightly news programs. Constant dismissal of accusations and a violent exchange of one-sided rhetoric only mirrored their firearm-wielding, life-taking counterparts. Perhaps the only way to objectively view the violence between these two groups of people would be to see through backward logic and circular speech. The violence, seemingly justified by religion and differing morals of the two nations, begged the universal question, Why can ' t we all just get along? by Jimmy Yool War is unnecessary.

Even before the attacks of eptember llth, the economy had shown signs of eakness, most evident in the devastating collapse of the ot-com corporations that shattered the dreams of many, ot only in America but around the globe. At the end of 2002, the U.S. economy had reached new low. The Dow Jones had gradually declined to its tbwest point in five years, and although economic Ijonditions bounced back periodically, the state of the jconomy never passed a moderate level. This reflected a substantial downshift from the luccessful economy of the late nineties, which can be Ittributed to an increasingly corrupt market system. Third ear political science and economics student Kristyn Kohut theorized, one of the major causes of the economic llecline was general distrust of big business due to multiple lorporate scandals being uncovered and publicized to the Lmerican public in a very short time period. This general Distrust of business was a sentiment felt by many ..mericans as the Enron and Martha Stewart scandals .raced the news stations nightly. The Martha Stewart scandal, involving her Omni- saedia company, used a technique known as insider ( ' ading. This entailed corporate insiders selling stock Because they knew critical information about the i ompany ' s future before the public, and thus could rid Siemselves of stock before it declined in value. Enron likewise duped the American public by using dubious accounting tactics and hiding losses from company shareholders, offsetting losses in other related companies. This tactic, known as creative accounting, successfully hid losses and boosted profits to in turn boost share price until the company declared bankruptcy, which caused stock prices to tumble. These scandals along with others led to a lack of confidence in basic corporations and a general distrust in the American economy itself. As fourth year English student Liz Fung commented, I remember reading about the Enron Scandal in the newspaper; it really hit home to read about an actual incident where powerful leaders were caught intentionally lying to the public at large. These problems within the economy created mild alarm within the nation, yet fortunately failed to generate any irreversible problems. With the escalation of the War on Terrorism, many citizens turned their attentions away from the state of the U.S. economy and focused on the more immediate issues of bio-terrorism and war with Iraq. This shift in concentration to security issues could very well be a factor in the downshift of the economy. A nation whose domestic agenda had been dominated for many years by the economy, turned to the more substantial task at hand - the protection of the American people from terrorist forces. Overall, it must be held in retrospect that the American economy has been through ups and downs throughout the decades and the downswing of 2002 reflected another one of these downshifts, and was no cause for great alarm. by Jamie Ladd Issues 45 American people deserve to know the real Resolution just seems like a precursor to war.

A small group of weapon inspectors stand between war, peace Between the greatest military force and the most flagrant big player in the Middle East lay a small group of men whose decision would change the outcome of history. Sounds like an episode of The X-Files involving Cancer Man and a Syndicate council bent on world destruction. Fiction aside, the small group of men given the authority to inspect Iraq were the only impediment between Dubya and his father ' s unfinished legacy. George W. Bush intended on disarming Iraq through emptying magazines, not through peaceful measures. Chief inspector Hans Blix and his International Atomic Energy Agency counterpart Mohammed el-Baradei headed the posse of 25 that possesed the power to calm tensions between Bush and Saddam Hussein. Dr. Blix seized this new opportunity to hold professional and peaceful inspections of Iraq ' s arsenal. Mohammed el-Baradei played an intricate role, hosting a series of high profile meetings with the Iraqi Government officials before the official inspections started on November 27th. The United Nations monitoring and verification commission allocated 14 inspectors to the effort. Even if all the previous violations could be overlooked momentarily, many countries would be highly suspicious of Iraq, believing that the inspections were merely well-orchestrated filibusters to hold off US intervention. The US showed its distrust of Iraqi intentions with the well- timed release of Conflict Desert Storm, a video game that let people take their own shots against Saddam. While violent video games are hardly a subtle gesture in the international forum, it did portray the gung-ho style of American patriotism, at its best, as players worked to position Saddam ' s head in the crosshairs. As if simulated military confrontation of Iraq was not enough, CNN ' s Showdown Iraq drew a close parallel to World Wrestling Entertainment ' s Summer Slam. The ' reporters ' and ' analysts ' gave their best pre-game picks and aired the dramatic back-story behind each nation, as though the stories were among the pages of ancient history. When asked about the current situation on Iraq, third year political science student Ahmed Mian replied, I ' m like the rest of Americans, I ' m uninformed. All the updates and sound bytes amounted to more confusion upon years of disregarded UN resolutions, a previous military clash, and a Pyrrhic victory on both sides. The global focal point was the December 8th deadline for Iraq to submit a complete and comprehensive report on its banned weapons program. Leaving no stones unturned, the team had the potential to leave the United States in a tight spot if the inspections went off without a hitch. The United States, with its military on alert, faces an anti-climatic ye t peaceful resolution. Clemenseau once said that war was too important to be left to the generals.

Bush must have had a tough time trying to convince Washington D.C. that Saddam Hussein was a bigger threat than the trigger-happy Maryland sniper. On one hand, you had a maniac armed with chemical weapons, and on the other hand, you had a maniac frolicking through Maryland. While Saddam Hussein perpetuated the well- known dangers of a thermonuclear war, the Maryland sniper made the most mundane trip to the supermarket a threat to peace and security. This is some crazy stuff. The man is taking Counter Strike too far, remarked Sun Yoo, a second year business economics student. While Saddam gained infamy by spending millions of dollars in armaments, the sniper threw down a few bucks on .223 caliber bullets bought at gun shows. On October 23rd, warrants were issued for 42- year-old John Allen Muhammad, and 17-year-old John Malvo. The warrants were initially put out for an illegal weapons charge, but after police grunt work, they were given full media coverage. What was long thought to be a fearful man with a deadly aim was no more than an angry teen and an ex-army officer going through a mid-life crisis. John Muhammad served in the army at a base near Fort Lewis, which provided some of the most intensive sniper training in the US military.

What made them seem larger than life and even more threatening was not their random acts of unprovoked brutality but the constant media portrayal of them as super-human. Like the eerie I am God tarot card they used to self-proclaim their importance, the constant forecasts of ' potential ' attacks only perpetuated fear and terror among civilians. Some sense of justice was restored on November 14th, when a Louisiana State Grand Jury indicted the two snipers on first-degree murder charges for a killing in Baton Rouge. The victim was 45-year- old Hong Im Ballenger, who was shot on September 23rd during a robbery. The prosecutors were adamant in the request of the death penalty for both. Louisiana was not the only state that wanted to prosecute the pair. Maryland, Virginia, Washington, the District of Columbia, Alabama, and Georgia also wanted to try them for the horrific acts they perpetrated during the month of terror that left the bloody trail of 14 people dead and five wounded. It ' s sad that one person could seize the nation ' s capital in terror for so long, said Jose Rubalcaba, a second year psychology student.

Jam-packed as students scurried to and fro, Bruinwalk effectively split North and South campus, while being home to clubs and organizations that beckoned to students passing by. As the most traveled route to campus each day, it served as a focal point for the teeming student body, a haven for diversity, and a rallying spot for protests and campus activism. Whether you wanted information on the next ACA party or an opportunity to speak out against war, you found it here. Thus was Bruinwalk a solicitation post for campus organizations and the cornerstone of student life.

At a school this huge, it is almost impossible to feel lonely. There is always a friendly face to be found and a fun experience to be had, said Christi Shaw, a first year undeclared student wise beyond her years. The close proximity to Westwood ensured that everyone would have a good time once the sun set, transportation optional. Westwood is one of the most enjoyable places for UCLA students. There is cultural food, good entertainment, and awesome parties, all within blocks to campus, explained Ragini Sarma, a first year biology student. Habibi ' s, Diddi Riese, and BJ ' s were popular and affordable spots in Westwood. They offered a selection of dishes ranging from Middle Eastern cuisine to homemade cookies to deep-dish pizza. Other popular hangouts included the Bruin and Fox theaters, made famous by the occasional red carpet premieres held in the area. For students over 21, bars such as Maloney ' s and Madison ' s were prime destinations, especially on nights where little was happening in the Greek scene. Beyond Westwood, a large number of entertainment spots were accessible via the Big Blue Bus. The campus is thirty minutes from the beach and Santa Monica, fifteen minutes from Westside Pavilion, and twenty minutes from the Beverly Center, explained Mark Brook, a second year political science student. Beverly Hills and Sunset Boulevard were also popular hangouts for students. Both were hotspots for rubbing elbows with the movers and shakers of Hollywood. The Sky Bar and Viper Room were frequented by starry-eyed students looking to paint the town. For a more relaxed night out, the world-famous Laugh Factory and the Comedy Store offered fresh humor.

UCLA Recreation allows students to play after a hard day ' s work In order to burn off calories from the seemingly endless supply of UCLA food, students often trooped down Bruinwalk to the John Wooden Center. Upon stepping into a realm of weight training facilities, exercise machines, studios, and courts, students found it impossible to be bored in the Wooden Center. The Wooden Center was the main recreation center on campus about 860,000 people passed through its doors last year to make use of its many resources. Other recreation centers included the Sunset Canyon Recreation Center, the recreation fields, the Men ' s Gym, and Drake Stadium. Although the Wooden Center underwent construction to expand its facilities beginning midway through Fall Quarter, this did not in any way hinder stud ents from participating in the programs and activities offered by the recreation staff. It ' s difficult to briefly summarize what we offer; the UCLA Recreation website probably has the best overview, Wooden Center Assistant Manager Dennis Koehne said when asked about UCLA Recreation ' s opportunities. One way students could enjoy these opportunities was through the fitness, instruction, and training program, which offered non-credit classes in areas ranging from archery to yoga. Learning how to fence dispelled a lot of preconceptions. It ' s a workout, but it ' s fun, Emily Lieu, a first year biology student explained. The recreation program also gave students the chance to participate in sports, both intramural and club. Students who wanted to get involved in intramural sports had to put together their own teams and sign up for the sport in which they wanted to compete. Individual, dual, or tournament IM sports were available. Students could also participate in club sports, in which they competed against other colleges and universities. In addition, club sports presented athletes with the option of competing in sports not offered at the varsity level, including ice hockey, rugby, and lacrosse. All of these activities attracted numerous .UCLA students; however, open recreation was, as Koehne described it, the biggest and the simplest. Open recreation allowed students to simply drop by and exercise independently, using the available equipment and services. From rock climbing to fitness instruction, UCLA Recreation provided students with many excellent opportunities to exercise and have fun. by Joni Park A group of students energetically practices their right hooks in a kickboxing class.

Student Life 55 -Working Bruins- working the 4 mmmA 9fo5 academics and social lives vs. internships and jobs Many Bruins worked and participated in internships while attending school full-time at UCLA. The convenience of on-campus jobs appealed to some, where employers adjusted students ' work schedules around their class schedules. For students who lived on or near campus and did not have cars, on-campus jobs were an especially attractive option. Furthermore, students with on-campus jobs often worked with fellow Bruins and enjoyed socializing on the job. The relaxed atmosphere at work was conducive to relationship building and while there, students interacted with UCLA faculty, staff, and visitors in a different capacity. Working on campus may not have always paid more than minimum wage, but there were advancement opportunities for those driven enough, and many students found that the benefits of working on campus were immeasurable. On-campus job opportunities for students ranged from working for ASUCLA to libraries, campus tours to community service officers, and offices to laboratories, just to name a few. Emily Burnett, a fourth year English student, was one of hundreds of Bruins who worked in UCLA ' s 15 libraries. Despite asserting, combined with everything else I do, it seems like a lot, Burnett liked being busy and was a ccustomed to balancing her commitments and using her little time to its maximum potential. Retail and food service jobs in Westwood were also available to those with a keen eye, boasting of higher pay and special perks such as discounts on clothing or electronics. Wherever Bruins were employed, most acknowledged that working took away from their personal time. Some flourished as a result of this challenge, managing their time wisely and studying whenever they could, while others struggled to prioritize between work and academics. Some Bruins also participated in internships, usually for academic credit and or little pay. Most often, getting practical experience to augment theoretical coursework benefited these students, as it not only helped them put career paths in perspective, but provided future employment contacts. Regardless of what or where they worked, many Bruins entered the workforce to earn money and obtain a competitive edge for future employment endeavors. With a top-notch education, Bruins were favored by employers.

Student LiFe 57 ' Freshman Orientation- , a brand new new Bruins receive a warm welcome During the summer preceding freshman year, students were given a glimpse into the world that they would soon call home. With a choice of one of ten orientation sessions to attend, students embarked on a three-day adventure to meet other students, familiarize themselves with campus landmarks, learn about UCLA ' s prestigious history, and schedule classes for the upcoming term. Orientation Counselors (OCs) worked with individual students to explain academic requirements, class scheduling, job placement, and parking regulations. Also included in the itinerary was a panel discussion on homosexuality, an important reminder that college life was conducive to a diversity of perspectives and ideas. The diversity on campus during the year was also felt during the summer, allowing students to meet new and interesting people every step of the way. I loved meeting all those great people during orientation. It helped me understand that college was going to be leaps and bounds better than my high school, where everyone knew each other really well and there was no way to expand your horizons. At UCLA there will always be new events to go to and new people to meet and learn about. Orientation also helped smooth the transition by allowing me to meet some people who I could then contact once school began, a good alternative to walking into an overwhelming institution utterly alone, explained Josephine Huang, a second year biology student. Like anything here at UCLA, orientation was different for all who participated, as some spent their time making friends, while others headed over to the nearby fraternities to learn the way of the bottle and sink into unconscious sleep. Crowded sessions led to problems in organization, forcing many students to aimlessly search for and enroll in classes, some useless to their majors. Orientation may have been fun, but in retrospect it was run very inefficiently. The whole-day escapade of scheduling classes could have been shortened if there was a more organized system, and orientation could have been crammed into one day instead of three, explained first year undeclared student Vivian Chow. Despite misgivings, orientation was an indispensable tool to most, involving a late night scavenger hunt, a taste of dorm food and fundamental training on academic criteria. by Vic Kapoor ' 58 Student Life- Courtesy of UCLA Orientation Orientation counselors entertain incoming freshmen at the orientation Cabaret .

This spacious walk-in closet served as primary sleeping, eating, and studying quarters for most freshmen. Each residence hall accommodated 900-1000 students and was fully equipped with a study lounge, computer room, mini-gym, and dining hall. Most students chose to stay in the dorms for one primary reason: social interaction. Freshmen were faced with the prospect of starting anew and forming friendships, and chose to use the dorms as a stepping-stone to meet students from all walks of life, promote cultural awareness, and engage in unique and long- lasting friendships. As Amelia Nelson, a first year theatre student put it, living in a high rise is crazy. But when else in your life will you be able to live in one big house with 1,000 other people, who all live in rooms the size of a shoe box and shower in a communal bathroom? If you ask me, it ' s a wonderful, once in a life-time experience. Even the infamous communal bathrooms seem to pose few problems, requiring only a bathrobe and a pair of shower sandals. Having an opportunity to bathe with others on the floor may be deemed undesirable at first, but most students agreed that meeting in the bathrooms further promoted friendships. In addition to the bathrooms, each floor in the high rises was equipped with study lounges, water fountains and laundry rooms. I love the convenience of simply being able to relax and rest in the study lounge or just hang out with friends in the dining hall, said Allison Worth, a first year business economics student. Some lucky freshmen were given rooms in DeNeve Plaza or Sunset Village, where the rooms were more spacious and individual bathrooms were available. Due to reports that it was sinking, housing in Courtside began renovations this past year, limiting the amount of students permitted to live in Sunset Village. The dorms were not quite as luxurious as hotels, but with Puzzles, Crossroads, and Caruso ' s just around the corner, no one needed room service and students were more than happy to learn first-hand the necessary lesson of space management. by Karishma Chullani Jennifer Richardson -60 Student Life- A student ' s items are found haphazardly strewn across the room.

The Resident Assistant (RA) also helped organize floor events, but focused mainly on administrative by Joni Park aspects of dorm life. The RA ' s responsibilities included dealing with conflicts on the floor, counseling, and enforcing policy. Two to four times a week, each RA was required to be on call, patrolling the halls, ensuring peace and quiet. Third year business economics student James Rock, who was the Resident Assistant for Sproul Four South, said, As RA, you ' re a center figure for the floor... you ' re here for the freshmen DeniseYuen an d to answer their questions.

Dorm residents turned to their RAs for any help, advice and guidance. The RAs, PAs and SHAs worked hard to make the dorms a comfortable home away from home. -Student Life 63- ' Apartment Life- Claudia Sun Summer Troung, a third year biochemistry student, cooks dinner in her Westwood apartment. Many upperclassmen suddenly found themselves learning the ways of the stove, oven, and often microwave, while craving the dorm food they once eyed with disdain. Reaching into the depths of a sea of soapy water, a Bruin cleans up after dinner. One of the downsides to living off-campus were the chores that came along with it. Q While munching on homemade salad, Brian Beck, a second year business economics student, Jenny Burcio, a third year political science and communication studies student, and Nizhoni Chow, a third year European studies student discuss a book for their class. Most students living off campus preferred the comforts of their own apartments to the cramped quarters of the dorms. -64 Student Life- freedom in the Bruins move off campus, discover new experiences Most Bruins moved into apartments after their first or second year at UCLA and, by and large, they enjoyed this change, save the obvious lack of dining hall food. Many apartment-dwelling Bruins stayed in Westwood despite higher rent, saving them significant time and energy; their most precious and finite resources. However, in fall quarter of 2002, many apartment buildings in Westwood still had vacancies well into the month of October, a phenomenon last experienced in the economic slump of the early 1990 ' s; a testament to the lack of cheap Westwood housing available to students and increasing popularity of more affordable apartments farther from campus. While some people enjoyed living across the street from UCLA and close to the hot Thursday night parties, others tested their luck a few blocks further away, a slightly more hilly walk from campus, but a calmer scene by night. Wherever they went, students enjoyed their newfound privacy in the apartments. I could never go back to the dorms because in the apartments, I have my own space and that ' s nice, said Dave Carroll, a fourth year biology student. Despite the more spacious apartments further from campus, students tended to shirk the hassle of commuting on the bus. Many Bruins opted to utilize UCLA ' s off-campus housing, eliminating hassles with landlords. Students who didn ' t live in the Westwood apartments or dorms found the commute strenuous. These students mingled with non- students in more natural environments but often missed out on the so-called college life, including parties at nearby fraternity houses. After living on Gayley for one year, Jennifer Varjabedian, a fourth year communication studies and psychology student, had had enough: The frat next door to our old apartment was annoying. They yelled at us and peed off the balcony. Our other neighbors did cocaine and left offerings of raw meat on our doorstep. Overall, students living in apartments felt more like adults and more at home than when they were living in the residence halls. Pamela Heijmans, a fourth year applied mathematics students summed it up best when she said, It ' s, sometimes good to be away from UCLA, I like living off campus. School shouldn ' t define your whole life. by Anna Ferrini Third year molecular, cell, and developmental biology majors Gang Iran and Gerald Kim hang out at their desks in their apartment. Many students found it easier to study in their off campus housing. Student Life 65 Academics- u Christy Gill, a second year English student, benefits from the quiet atmosphere in the Dykstra tenth floor study lounge. When dorm rooms bustled with activity, study lounges provided students a comfortable and calm place to concentrate. 66 Student Life- These Bruins are focusing on their physics midterm in Haines 39. Crowded lecture halls, where one had to sit elbow-to-elbow with fellow students, were often uncomfortable testing centers for midterms and finals. Taking advantage of Professor Greg Rubin ' s office hours, Alex Rabinovich discusses an essay he wrote in his English Composition class. Office hours were an effective way to receive extra feedback on one ' s work, and improve student-professor relationships. Not yet time for class, these diligent Bruins busy themselves by reading in front of Rolfe 1200. Whether it be schoolwork or the Daily Bruin, students often read to pass time in between classes. creating a tradition of simply by the numbers, UCLA is tough to beat 37,494 students came from 125 different countries, studied from any of 183 majors offered, enrolled in a few of the 2,000 different courses taught, and thrived on a film library second only to that of the Library of Congress. Such were the characteristics of a top research university. Founded in 1919, UCLA has risen to the top in the nation ' s academic elite with much to boast of. As the most-sought-after university in the nation, UCLA continued attracting the best and brightest students from around the world. The fall 2002 freshman class was selected from more than 43,000 applicants, making it one of the most challenging universities to gain admittance to. Students wore blue and gold with pride as they pursued the many opportunities set before them. Class sizes were varied and many students came to UCLA dreading the massive and impersonal lecture halls where the professor would be a tiny person at the bottom speaking through a microphone. Students like Becky Soil, a second year political science and history student actually liked big lectures because it emanated a real intellectual atmosphere. Admittedly, there were still downfalls to having 200 plus students in a room, but with the aid of Teaching Assistants, students adjusted well. It was a big change from high school, but I got used to it, said Nathan Lee, a first year undeclared student. By encouraging the use of tutorials on campus, UCLA placed the responsibility solely on the students to seek help. Veronica Reyes, a forth year anthropology student, and employee of the Covel Commons Tutorials felt that, even though you didn ' t think you needed help, it was worth your time and effort to come. It made a big difference for those struggling in classes. The Academic Advancement Program also offered students assistance, whether it be through lecture notes or reviews of previous exams. In addition to regular classes, undergraduate students enjoyed one unit Fiat Lux seminars, topics of which ranged from J.R.R. Tolkien ' s view of violence in The Hobbit to the structure of the adolescent justice system. With free tutoring, invigorating classes, knowledgeable TAs, and a renowned library, UCLA was a bastion for higher education. by Jennie Zhu ._ Studying Abroad- windows to the students immerse themselves in traditions and cultures T T T Tliether it was studying architecture in Venice, Russian literature in Moscow, economics in % Warwick, or Spanish in Barcelona, the Education Abroad Program (EAP) offered just the T T right destination. For over 40 years, EAP has enabled students to study abroad in a number of countries. For the vast majority, a choice to study abroad was a huge decision, serving as a stepping- stone toward independence and a once-in-a-lifetime experience. From indulging myself in French cuisine, language and culture, to traveling around Europe and building lifelong friendships, my trip to France was undoubtedly one of the most amazing experiences of my life. Leaving behind the comfort and familiarity of family and friends, I immersed myself in a culture completely foreign to me. I knew the culture shock and language barrier would be difficult, but it was a challenge I was willing to take on, affirmed Rayleen Hsu, a fourth year biology student. EAP ' s motto Get out of here was very fitting. Last year, EAP sent an estimated 2,400 students abroad whilst welcoming 1,000 international students to UC campuses. EAP provided extensive offerings with courses in 33 countries at over 140 institutions. The program offered full year, short term, and summer sessions, in addition to internships and research opportunities. Students were given the opportunity to study in a wide range of fields from agriculture and archaeology to philosophy and peace studies. Through EAP, tuition fees abroad were comparable or lower than those paid at UCLA. Furthermore, students participating in the EAP program had an advantage over other students when applying for graduate school and jobs. Studying abroad gave students the opportunity to enhance their academic disciplines and gain an understanding and awareness of other cultures. Many Bruins returned fluent in languages they studied abroad, bringing back a wealth of knowledge after visiting countries rich in tradition and culture. While my undergraduate experience at UCLA has been rewarding, I would like to extend my education beyond the confines of America. I would like to study abroad during my junior or senior year to experience life in a different country and see how different people learn, said Chris Sellers, a second year mechanical engineering student. After September 11, 2001, the nation predicted that the number of students who chose to study abroad numbers would decline. Not at UCLA. Participation in the Education Abroad Program grew by 20% for the 2002-03 school year. When asked about the rewards associated with studying abroad, Emily Morris, Administrative Director of the Education Abroad Program at UCLA explained, We in the UCLA EAP office strongly believe that it does more than just strengthen your resume. Living in another culture enriches one ' s perspective and contributes toward a more peaceful and productive world. by Karishma Chullani Students inquire about study abroad programs at the EAP fair held in A c k e r m a n Grand Ballroom.

Student Life 69 ,-- Clothesline Project Take Back the Night- Wishes for a better -lAV A J.J.J T; u Second years Margaret Coblentz , a political science and history student, and Kerrie-Ann Connors, an art student, hold candles at the Take Back the Night vigil. students come together in a battle against sexual violence he brightly colored and decorated t-shirts on clotheslines in Dickson Plaza, Shoenberg Quad, and Perloff Quad were not just a recent exhibit in abstract art. Its expression stood for a tangible problem plaguing society: that of violence against women and children. In a world of war and instability, women often suffer from heinous acts of violence and sexual assault. Fortunately, victims of these crimes have support groups available to them in the form of anonymous phone services, counselors, and clinics. Another such resource for support can be found at UCLA. Survivors of sexual violence designed t-shirts arrayed on the clotheslines. These artifacts harbored personal meaning for those individually affected by such a tragedy, including friends and family members of victims. The clotheslines were displayed on campus courtesy of the Clothesline Project, a non-partisan student organization geared toward the prevention and elimination of gender- based violence and other hate crimes. I never really knew what all the shirts were about until I researched it. It wasn ' t what I expected, but it ' s interesting to see this bond between women who have their personal messages on display to the world, said fourth year English student Richelle Chuatuon. Originating in Hyannis, Massachusetts in 1990, the Clothesline Project has grown with the goals of bearing witness to, providing counsel for those affected by, and increasing societal awareness regarding crimes of violence against women. Violence against any person is a travesty. The effort that is being made through the Clothesline Project, to raise awareness for this problem and to encourage victims to seek action against their attackers is definitely valuable, said Mary Ruth Schuler, a third year English student. To students, the Clothesline Project helped put statistics into perspective, illustrating that violence against women is a personal crime that leaves the victim traumatized long after the deed. It further served to provide a support group for those affected, while aiding in preventative measures against future crimes. by Jimmy Yoon + -2 o I S-f 1 70 Student Lire- An endless array of t-shirts hanging from clotheslines adorned the trees on campus. These shirts were meant to provide hope and encouragement to victims to remain strong. Students set floating candles in a pool to help them cope with painful memories.

Student LiPe 77 Undergraduate Student Association Council Elbow-deep in by Vic Kapoor The Undergraduate Student Association Council (USAC), served as a political organization run by students that, shall exist to serve the individual and collective needs of the undergraduate student body, as stated in its constitution. As a student government institution, it went above and beyond the role you may remember in high school, as it actively played a role in the lives of the student body. Recent USAC activities included the reform of a minimum progress requirement, technological advancements for Spring 2003, and movements related to the Affirmative Action and the Racial Privacy Initiative. USAC achieved the aforementioned goals through 13 council members, all of whom headed individual commissions, ranging from Academic Affairs, which evaluated curricula and created more effective USAC President David honors courses, to UCLA Student Welfare, which spearheaded programs such as the Dance Marathon and the annual AIDS Walk. Various student groups, such as the Interfraternity Council, Transfer Student Association, Disabled Student Union, and a plethora of cultural groups were represented under the umbrella of USAC. Participation in these commissions was on a Courtesy of Campus Events Commission voluntary basis, and a variety of activities ensured that everyone found an area of interest. You can be on any of ten committees, and each one is riddled with subcommittees that focus on one or two events each year. This helps to minimize individual workloads and improves the efficiency of the organization, said Brooke Mitchell, a fourth year physiological sciences student and Jennifer Richardson member of the Health and Nutritional Fitness subcommittee of the Student Welfare Commission. As one such committee, the Community Service Commission (CSC), acted as a conduit for more than 20 groups on campus, helping to organize Project Mac, Kid ' s Korner, Best Buddies, and a slew of events that allow students to actively give back to their communities. When asked about the commitment, Anna Alcantara, a fourth year sociology student and member of the CSC, said, Sometimes the workload is up to 20 hours a week, but time flies when you work on things you enjoy with people you come to trust and respect. Her favorite event was the COOL conference, a national meeting of community service movers and shakers, where they shared ideas, swapped contact information, and took part in personal growth seminars.

After 74 years of experience and tradition, the Chi Alpha Delta sorority thrives with over 50 active members. With our deep-rooted history, strength in sisterhood is an aspect upon which we pride ourselves. This year, we welcomed 21 new members, the Dragon Pledge Class. From Rush Week to graduation time, the Chi calendar was filled with various sisterhood and social activities: big and little sis revelations potlucks, annual retreats, Chi Thanksgiving dinner, date night at Disneyland, Christmas dance, Christmas caroling with our brother fraternity, a ski trip with another brother fraternity, and an Easter picnic with alumnae and their children, among many others. We also participated in other social gatherings with various fraternities and sororities within the Southern California Asian Greek Council. Throughout the year, Chis were active with fundraising events and volunteering in community service, such as the Los Angeles Tofu Festival. For the past few years, Chis have regularly been involved with Reading to Kids, a program designed to reach out to inner-city elementary school children to encourage literacy.

In 1981, Alpha Chapter was chartered and since then the traditions and bonds of Lambda Phi Epsilon have spread througho ut college campuses across the nation. Being part of Lambda Phi Epsilon is the experience of a lifetime. Joining provides memories that will last forever. We pride ourselves in the diversity and bonds of our brotherhood. Experience LIFE. Integrity Loyalty Brotherhood Strength Leadership -Greeks 101- . Omega Sigma Tair 30+ Years of Brotherhood and Counting... Many people romanticize brotherhood; it usually stands on some pinnacle of a definition, blown up by pompous words and empty boasting. Or, in some circles, people mistake brotherhood for memories of drunken escapades fogged by cigarette smoke. While these moments could contain elements of brotherhood, they pale in comparison to what we share here in Omegas, the Omega brotherhood. The good times make us friends, but the hard times make us brothers. Our brotherhood is brotherhood in its truest form; not based on dictionary definitions or foolish pride, but on heart. Often imitated, but never duplicated... This is Omegas. Founded in 1966, Omega Sigma Tau has been an active member of the UCLA and Southern California Asian American communities. Established as the first Asian American fraternity at UCLA, Omega Sigma Tau has worked to develop Bruins into dedicated leaders of the future. With over 30 years of experience, Omegas has become the largest and most active Asian American fraternity in the nation. As one of the larger fraternities at UCLA, Omegas currently has over 50 active members and hundreds of alumni worldwide. Our Ideals: Brotherhood Class Confidence Diversity Excellence L 102 Greeks- -Theta Kappa Phi- Founded in 1959 by Margaret Ohara Inouye, Theta Kappa Phi continues to represent the ideals upon which it was founded: sisterhood, scholarship, and service. With the founders ' simple wish to provide a choice among Asian sororities at UCLA, Theta Kappa Phi has grown into an organization comprised of diverse women over the years. Thetas continuously keep themselves involved in the community through events such as Christmas caroling, Reading to Kids, Project Pet Save, the Asian Greek Council canned food drive, Asian American Bone Marrow Drive, and the hosting of the annual Battle of the Pledge Dances, from which proceeds are donated to benefit the Breast Cancer Foundation at UCLA. Aside from serving the community, Thetas enjoy the company of their fellow sisters through study buddies, ski trips, sisterhood retreats, and networking with people from various Greek organizations.

Alpha Phis are members of a lifelong sisterhood, a woman ' s fraternity. Our keystone is friendship - warm, simple, and sincere. In Alpha Phi there is encouragement, understanding, and opportunities to grow. With members all over the world and collegiate and alumnae chapters throughout the United States and Canada, our sisterhood knows no bounds. We, the women of the Beta Delta chapter of Alpha Phi Fraternity, are proud and committed to helping our members reach their full potential. Whether it ' s helping a sister choose a dress for her first formal, staying up late studying in the library, or the pride of implementing a successful philanthropic event, the memories of our college days will be just the beginning of a lifelong Alpha Phi journey. Sisters, whenever you need a friend, Alpha Phi will be there for you. Membership: The Beta Delta Chapter has 99 current members and is growing with 21 seniors, 25 juniors, 33 sophomores, and 20 freshman, with 6 studying abroad in Spain, Italy, and Japan.

Our National Organizaton: Founded May 15, 1851 at Wesleyan College in Macon, Georgia, Alpha Delta Pi holds the distinction of being the first secret society for women and the mother of today ' s sorority system. Alpha Delta Pi was founded on the principles of leadership, scholarship, service to others, and sisterhood. These principles still guide the policies and programs of the sorority today. To date, Alpha Delta Pi has initiated more than 182,500 women, many of whom are actively involved in one of over 132 collegiate chapters or 150 alumnae associations throughout the United States and Canada. Alpha Chi Chapter: Alpha Delta Pi on the UCLA campus is renown for confident, beautiful, and, most importantly, balanced women. Our sisters find time not only for school, but they also participate in countless campus activities, make time for family and friends, hold jobs, give time to our national philanthropy, The Ronald MacDonald House, play on sports teams, and of course, make time to enjoy the company of the sisters of Alpha Delta Pi.

The highlight of the fall was the annual Tug O ' War philanthropy event which raised money for the Make-A-Wish Foundation. Chi Omega also prides itself for its high standards. Last year, it ranked number two on the row for scholarship. Balancing a fun social calendar with scholarship is Chi Omega ' s primary goal. The girls also held a number of sisterhood events such as trips to Dodger games and a pumpkin carving event. Chi Omega looks forward to another great year and wishes all of its seniors the best of luck. -Greeks 107- Delta Delta Delta- Delta Delta Delta Tri Delta ' s national philanthropy is St. Judes Children ' s oncology.

Theta has anticipated in much Panhellenic and school wide philanthropy as well as hosting their own Theta Shootout. This vent brought together both fraternities and sororities for dinner, a raffle, and a fraternity free throw contest. Theta Shootout, an annual event, raised money for Theta ' s national philanthropy, Court Appointed Special Advocates (CASA), which assists children in foster care. The Beta Xi chapter of Kappa Alpha Theta is regarded nationally as one of the strongest among the sorority. At the annual Grand Convention in June, UCLA ' s Theta chapter brought home several awards to affirm its standing as a leading chapter of Kappa Alpha Theta. Academically, Theta maintained the highest GPA among UCLA sororities and an average above the UCLA women ' s GPA for the 2001-2002 school year. Throughout the year, Theta kept a full social calendar to build and maintain ties with fellow sorority and fraternity members. Kappa Alpha Theta is proud to have contributed positively to the UCLA Greek community. -Greeks 109- Kappa Delta- The foundation of Kappa Delta lies within our sisterhood. Without friends, life would be empty. Kappa Delta strives for that which is honorable, beautiful, and highest. This is our open motto. Kappa Delta promotes a well-rounded, balanced lifestyle in college women. Our organization provides opportunities for philanthropy, academic excellence, leadership, and lifelong friendship. Kappa Delta encourages community involvement through participation in activities such as Children ' s Walk for Life, Dance Marathon, Revlon Run Walk Marathon, CALPIRG, Red Cross Relief for 9-11, and Habitat for Humanity.

We are looking forward to another very successful year of learning, fun, and sisterhood! m r ' Alpha Tau Omega The 2002-2003 academic year has been very exciting and busy for Alpha Tau Omega. Our house has grown very strong thanks to hard work and strong leadership from many of the brothers. In the fall quarter we increased our house ' s membership by more than 20%; this was accomplished by a combination of much hard work during the summer and the efforts of many of the brothers during rush week to present entertaining rush activities. Winter quarter was a definite high point when our long-anticipated chartering ceremony took place. For many of the older brothers, this ceremony was the result of countless hours of logistical work. Spring marked the last quarter and graduation lor a large number of brothers this year. With a graduating class of approximately 25 it was very important for the chapter to gain a strong base of younger members to carry on the traditions of the house and make it even stronger. To those who graduated as well as those returning, best wishes for a successful future. -112 Greeks- . fctal ' !% Interfraternity Council Interfraternity Council the 2002-2003 academic year continued advancing into the new millennium, the Interfraternity Council at the Jniversity of California at Los Angeles did as well. By accepting new challenges and incorporating more dvanced strategies in dealing with problems currently facing the entire Greek system, the IFC was able to help lead it from the foraged fields of the past into a new day with new challenges and troubles to be tackled. Yet, with these challenges came the opportunity for new successes. These accomplishments ranged from the physical improvement of Westwood via Operation Clean Sweep, to the improvement of student leaders by way of UCLA IMPACT - a leadership institute for fraternity leaders that encouraged members to take responsibility for planning their future, addressing community issues, renewing their fraternal spirit and commitment, and learning the leadership skills necessary to accomplish their goals. The IFC also enforced the temporary displacement of the annual Black Sunday party due to concerns regarding the well-being of our fellow Bruins. The IFC has led this proactive charge that promises to continue well into the new millennium. -Greeks 113- Beta Theta Pi Delta Sigma Phi- Beta Theta Pi To the graduating brothers of Beta Theta Pi: Congratulations on four, five, or maybe six years of outstanding fraternal brotherhood and your continued commitment to the principles that make this house great. May Wooglin always smile upon you. The first mark of a Beta will be his Beta spirit. - Willis O. Robb The Delta Sigma Phi fraternity is built on friendship. While striving to excel academically, the members of this fraternity engage in all sorts of social, philanthropic, and athletic activities. From weekend trips to the desert to our annual parties to hosting events for underprivileged children, the fraternity participates in a plethora of events that continue to diversify college life. This year ' s leadership, spearheaded by President Steven Morris, Vice President Shaun Tydlajcka, Secretary Chad Klepper, Treasurer Michael Chester, and Sergeant at Arms David Barton, has brought the Beta Gamma Chapter into a new age, marked by new traditions and rapidly growing membership. 2002 marked our chapter ' s 75th anniversary on campus. With a rich history behind us, this year ' s membership hopes to continue that legacy and create a history of our own. _ 114 Greeks- -Phi Kappa Psi- P SI I believe that Phi Kappa Psi is a brotherhood of honorable men, courteous and cultured, who pledge throughout their lives to be generous, compassionate, and loyal comrades. I believe that I am honor bound to strive manfully for intellectual, moral, and spiritual excellence, to help and forgive my brothers, to discharge promptly all just debts, and to give aid and sympathy to those who are less fortunate. I believe that I am honor bound to strengthen my character and deepen my integrity, to counsel and guide my brothers who stray from their obligations, to respect and emulate my brothers who practice moderation in their manners and morals, to be ever mindful that loyalty to my fraternity should not weaken loyalty to my college, but rather increase devotion to it, to my country and to my God. I believe that to all I meet, wherever I go, I represent not only Phi Kappa Psi, but indeed the spirit of all fraternities; thus I must ever conduct myself so as to bring respect and honor not to myself alone, but also to my fraternity. To the fulfillment of these beliefs, of these ideals, in the noble perfection of Phi Kappa Psi, I pledge my life and sacred honor. -Greeks 115- Sigma Pi- T he Sigma Pi Fraternity Chapter at UCLA has been quite busy this past 2002 - 2003 academic year. After returning from a National Convention over the summer, where the chapter was recognized as one of the top in the nation, the brothers were excited to get back to school. This past year marked our 8CP 1 anniversary here at UCLA and the brothers celebrated this event with many alumni at our annual Founder ' s Day. Members of the fraternity also participated in many intramural sporting events, including playing for yet another IFC Softball championship. In addition to defending their sports titles, the brothers also raised money for The American Red Cross and participated in various philanthropic events, including serving food at homeless shelters and volunteering time at a local transitional home. Although during the past year many great members of the fraternity graduated, all of the members are looking forward to our fraternity ' s continued success here at UCLA. Vr r . J . 116 Greeks- Sigma Nu- - Sigma Nu Sigma Nu has long prided itself as an institution at UCLA that fostered the qualities of honorable, balanced men. This past year has been a paradigm of success on all fronts, as we have excelled in many realms across the spectrum of the college experience. We have done well in the classroom, compiling an average house GPA that exceeded the All Men ' s and All Fraternity averages over each of the past three quarters. Our intramural football team won IM ' s for the second year in a row. We have volunteered time at Daniel Webster Middle School in L.A., and twice last spring, we fed the homeless of Santa Monica with bag lunches. We had our annual Christmas Philanthropy this past December, and, for the fourth year in a row, we gathered toys for needy children. The Sigma Nu experience is one of enjoyment, fulfillment, and brotherhood; we are proud to be members of the Legion of Honor, and honored to be positive contributors to UCLA campus life. -Greeks 117- - Theta Xi- The Alpha Zeta chapter of Theta Xi has been part of the UCLA Greek community since the Westwood campus opened in 1929. This year, the brothers of Theta Xi continued to support each other by providing a warm community in which to work, play, and hone their social, organizational, and leadership skills. They also worked to give something back to the community with community service-oriented events. The 2002-2003 school year got off to a great start with the first of what will hopefully be an annual Playboy sponsored benefit concert. The concert featured the band Something Corporate. A great barbeque was provided by the beloved house cook Melba Johnson and playmates Stephanie Heinrich and Terri Harrison. Great food and music combined with a heated pool made for a great Sunday afternoon at the Theta Xi house. The only downside was an unwelcome intruder who ruined the memory for some people. The rest of the year lived up to Theta Xi ' s high standards set by this party. Highlights included Alice, Spy vs. Spy, the Blue Iris Formal, Monsters of Rock and a waterski weekend at Lake Mojave, Arizona. I sdnb 118 Greeks- -Zeta Psi Theta Chi- Gentlemen since 1347 ! Theta Chi The UCLA chapter of Theta Chi offers a strong brotherhood, a unique social calendar, dynamic alumni connections, scholarship opportunities, competitive athletics, and ample opportunities for philanthropies and campus involvement. Theta Chi also offers countless opportunities ' to enhance its members ' leadership skills. The Executive Council and numerous committees provide avenues for Bruins to develop capabilities in planning, organization, and management. A cornerstone of Theta Chi is its annual attendance at National Conventions, which is a unique chance to travel and meet brothers from around the nation. Theta Chi takes pride in having a pledge quarter based on personal growth. While learning about the fraternity, Theta Chi emphasizes fun, responsibility, and friendship. But the true hallmark of the Theta Chi house, is the camaraderie of its brothers. -Greeks 119 I fcs r i Jinan Young Daily liruin Tyson Evans Daily Bruin Jonathan Young Daily Bruin 1 LEFT: Going for the goal, second year Brett Ormsby takes aim during a water polo match against USC.

Their smiling faces were present at every football and basketball game, to cheer the team on, and to raise the spirits of the Bruin fans. Their poise seemed to come naturally, as they executed every stunt and routine with incredible energy and accuracy. These twelve individuals were an extremely dedicated and hard-working group that attended two hours of early morning practice, running from 6:30 AM to 8:30 AM every day of the week during the sports seasons. They were also required to attend summer practices, as well as a week-long cheer camp where they learned new stunts, and shared routines with different squads from all over the West Coast. In addition to cheering at the football and basketball games, the team cheered at volleyball games, and made appearances at various functions, including weddings and birthday parties, along with the rest of the UCLA spirit squad. They also competed in the USA National Cheer competition. This year was the first time the team had competed since the 2000 season, attesting to the dedication of the 2002 squad. When asked about these competitions, fourth year team captain and world arts and cultures student Dionna Kaufman commented, We didn ' t compete the past couple seasons due to many different factors. I was excited to finally compete again because it was a great chance for our team to show off our skills. I was so proud of all the hard work we put in this year. The team did have another awesome year both on and off the field, an incredible feat for a team that began the season with very few returning members. Although it was a big commitment, participating on the UCLA cheer squad was still a wonderful experience for all those who participated. As third year biochemistry student Kristy Sutton said, Being in front of all the cheering fans at the game was a unique and wonderful experience. I enjoyed playing a more active role in games instead of just sitting in the crowd. Thus, with dedication, talent, and an exceptional dosage of Bruin spirit, the UCLA cheer squad had another great season this year, continuing one of the many traditions here at UCLA. by Jamie Ladd Dionna Kaufman 4th Year Team Captain was excited to finally compete again, ecause it was a great chance for our team to show off our skills ' Lauren Aguado 2nd Year Team Member Each girl brought a unique perspective to the squad; we all possessed different alents and combined them to make up one awesome team ' competition poise vibrance energy The UCLA dance team: energy, spirit, and a whole lot of style. The women of the UCLA dance team displayed energy that made fans want to get up out of their seats. Many fans busted out dance moves of their own creation, none of which measured up to the stellar routines of these nine young women. This was due to the fact that the women who made up the squad were chosen from a pool of over 100 applicants. Most had previous dance experience, some bringing years of training in tap, ballet, or jazz with them. As second year dance team member and world arts and cultures student Lauren Aguado commented, Each girl brought a unique perspective to the squad; we all possessed different talents, and combined them to make up one awesome team. The talent definitely showed through as they cheered for UCLA on the sidelines of the games, uplifting the spirits of the crowd, and visually displaying the immense Bruin pride we all felt. In addition to talents each individual brought to the squad, a professional choreographer was also involved in helping compose the routines. This worked to unify the different dancing styles of all the girls, and resulted in over 40 impressive sideline routines that the girls executed to the music of the UCLA marching band. As if they were not already busy enough performing at football and basketball games, the women also participated in various national competitions and made appearances at smaller functions, along with the rest of the UCLA Spirit Squad. They put in an incredible amount of time and dedication to their sport, which included two hours of early morning practice every day of the week, as well as rigorous training over the summer. The squad itself formed a second family here at UCLA for many of the young women. Second year world arts and cultures student Kyrra Richards commented, Being on the team was a huge commitment, but it was well worth the effort. I met a group of incredible people who made me glad I could take part in such a great Bruin tradition. by Jamie Ladd Courtesy of Steve Gutherie Meredith Flores and Jeanette Perez show off their dance moves.

While the marching band was responsible for playing at UCLA football games, the varsity band appeared at indoor sports arenas such as Pauley Pavilion for basketball and volleyball games, as well as outdoors for soccer games and tennis matches. I j The marching band consisted of 250 members, each of whom devoted at least six hours a week to practice. During football season, the band performed regularly at the Rose Bowl in Pasadena, sparking enthusiasm and energy in crowds of up to 100,000. Among some of the traditional tunes the band members played were The Mighty Bruin, Sons of Westwood, and Strike Up the Band. They also livened up the atmosphere with popular rock and pop songs. During half-time, they took center stage on the field, where they kept Bruin fans entertained with more conventional musical melodies. John Lonacker, a second year cognitive science student and a trumpet player said, decided to join the band because I love playing instrument... the more playing the better. Being part of a huge marching band is most certainly a unique experience: I enjoy contributing to the whole of the band ' s presentation and its impact on the audience. The varsity band was present at all UCLA home basketball games, dazzling the crowd with their diverse musical abilities. I think they ' re pretty amazing because of all the types of songs they play, from the school songs to the pop songs. Even though they may have different interpretations of the songs, it still comes out well in their presentation, said Jennifer Muranaka, a second year American literature and culture student. The varsity band, like the marching band, had the opportunity to travel, gracing the Big Apple with its presence, and painting the town red in St. Petersburg, Russia. Throughout the year, the marching and varsity bands never ceased to inspire the athletes or the fans with their perpetual commitment, effort, and skillful performances. Their presence at the games struck fear into the hearts ot opponents while elevating Bruin fans and athletes to a whole new level. by Sandra Partamian Top: Eric May shows his enthusiasm while he plays the saxophone.

As a part of their fierce 4-1 start, the Bruin men chewed their way through the San Diego State Aztecs, giving head coach Bob Toledo the opportunity to play several reserves, including redshirt first year running back Tyler Ebell, who scored his first collegiate touchdown. Just one week later starting running back, second year Manuel White pulled a hamstring during the Oregon State match-up, forcing him to leave the game. With nowhere else to turn, Ebell stepped onto the field. Surprising all spectators, this 5 ' 9 170-pound Bruin led his team to a win, with 29 carries for 203 yards, the second-best rushing game ever for a Bruin freshman. Ebell continued his amazing performance throughout the season, flying through six consecutive 100- yard rushing games. Despite this strong effort, the Bruins suffered another heartbreaking loss to the University of Oregon. It was deja vu; once again, as the fate of the game came down to an unsuccessful field goal, leaving the Bruins unhappily staring at a Scoreboard that read 31-30. This black cloud followed the team to Berkeley, as fans watched in despair as fourth year quarterback Cory Paus fell to the ground and was carted off the field, clutching his broken ankle in anguish. First year quarterback Drew Olson provided both the team and the crowd with temporary relief but had his own brush with bad luck, leaving the game in the fourth quarter with a sprained shoulder. Inexperienced first year quarterback John Sciarra was left to lead the team. The game of musical quarterbacks continued at Stanford, where yet another first year, Matt Moore, led the Bruins to an uplifting win.

Athletics 141 Men ' s Cross Country h a d bumpy terrain Labeled young and inexperienced at the start of the season, the UCLA men ' s cross-country team strived to disprove these premature characterizations. Although the squad was comprised mostly of freshmen and sophomores, it got off to a strong start at the season opener in Cal State Fullerton, thanks in part to second year Ben Aragon ' s overall ninth place finish. Beating his personal best from last year by a full minute, Aragon was one of the season ' s top runners. The Bruins continued this trend at the Big Wave Invitational in Oahu, Hawaii, where second year Jon Rankin, who redshirted all of last season with leg stress ailments, ran his first race in over a year, and fellow second year Erik Emilsson, who transferred from Tulane over the summer, competed as a Bruin for the first time. The kids are feeling good and enthusiastic, head coach Eric Peterson said of his team. The team, suffering from illness had a disappointing finish at the Stanford Invitational, where the highest placement by a Bruin was the 38th spot by Aragon: The illness definitely had an effect on the men ' s performance, Peterson explained. However, eager to prove itself, the energetic team bounced back at the Triton Cross-Country Invitational held at UCSD. Continuing to do well, the Bruin men finished first and second at the Cal Poly-San Luis Obispo Invitational and the Fullerton Invitational, respectively. Competing with the team for the first time at Fullerton was Mohammed Qazi, a walk-on from West Torrance High School, who joined the cross-country crew just two weeks earlier. Qazi performed surprisingly well, earning him a chance to represent the men ' s team at the Pac-10 meet. His third place finish, along with sophomore Reggie Oronoz ' s ninth place finish, allowed the Bruins to nab the second place standing. Riddled with injuries at Cal State Fullerton, they placed eighth once again at the NCAA West Region Qualifying meet. The Bruins had a chance to redeem themselves at the NCAA Championships in Terre Haute, IN, their last meet of a season filled with highs and lows reminiscent of a nauseating roller coaster ride. by Joni Pork Scott Quintard ASUCLA Photography Front Row: Lucas Crowley, Chad Galbreath, Reggie Oronoz, Puneet Mahan, Ben Aragon, Nick Thornton.

The Lady Bruins ' cross-country team ran h arder, faster and better than many other teams in the Pac-10 and the NCAA division I, placing fourth and 23rd respectively. Over the river and through the woods to a great season the Lady Bruins ran. Quite literally, the women ' s cross-country team not only competed with other runners; they battled the elements, fighting off Mother Nature at every race. Armed with nothing but running shoes and a determination to prove themselves, they finished off with a better season than last year. The young team woke up early to practice from 7:15 to 10:00 AM, gasping for breath while even the most studious Bruins were just beginning to contemplate the torturous trek up Bruinwalk. Under the direction of Coach Eric Peterson, they posted mind-blowingly fast times. Third year Lena Nilsson placed third in the Pac- 10 meet, setting a new school record in the 6000m. Helping her team along, third year Valerie Flores led the Cal State Fullerton Titan invite and won the 5000m individual race. Physical deterioration coupled with mental frustration were tough hurdles for the Lady Bruins. Twenty- five lap races required more than mere muscles pumping out burning lactic acid; it required sheer mental focus in order to keep oneself concentrated through every stride, lap, and mile. Prefontaine said, Some people create with words, or with music, or with a brush and paint. I like to make something beautiful when I run. I like to make people stop and say, ' I ' ve never seen anyone run like that before. ' It ' s more then just a race, it ' s a style. It ' s doing something better then anyone else.

They soon grew accustomed to the awkward stares from customers as they rushed to beat the other teams in the freshmen water polo initiation scavenger hunt. As a young team with twelve freshmen, they had the initial task of adjusting to one another. As Logan Powell, a first year undeclared student, commented, I really liked the camaraderie, like when we hung out on weekends. Even the younger team members got connected with the older and more experienced players. Practice started at 6:45 in the morning with weights, progressing to an additional five hours of practice in the pool throughout the day. Coach Adam Krikorian played a critical role as he conditioned the men in the pool with laps and half-pool scrimmages. It was a demanding sport where we had to swim back and forth and tread water for at least an hour, said first year Michael March. Underneath the water, jostling went unnoticed by referees and spectators. As fourth year center defender Matt Flesher said, you knew coming into the game that you were going to get grabbed, pushed, and held. Players needed to be in top physical condition to keep up in such a strenuous sport and defeat their opponents. There were many newsmakers on the team this year. Senior goalkeeper and three-time Ail- American Brandon Brooks crushed Bruin legend Matt Swanson ' s record with over 700 career saves and was named first team Ail-American along with teammate Brett Ormsby.

Opening with the Stanford Invitational, the team cruised to victories over formidable opponents such as University of Hawaii, USC, and UC Santa Cruz. They finished second in a rematch of last year ' s NCAA title game, losing to number one Stanford. Undaunted, they moved on to crush UC Irvine. By jumping ahead early in the first quarter, they clinched an 18-1 victory against the Anteaters. The impressive score marked the second time the team scored ten or more goals in their season, the other being the 19-0 shutout of UC Santa Cruz. This was a very exciting year because of the talent we have, said head coach Adam Krikorian. The blend of experienced returning players and talented freshmen was an integral part of their success. Fourth year Olympian and Ail-American Robin Beauregard added, This year ' s team was a combination of old and young, composed mostly of seniors and freshmen.

Its most crushing loss and the largest defeat in Pauley Pavilion ' s history, came in a 35-point rout by No. 1 Arizona. As a young team, with five freshmen and only two seniors, it did, however, produce some note- worthy victories. These included a road win against Georgetown and an upset against No. 18 ranked Cal, which broke UCLA ' s 10-game losing streak in the highly competitive Pac-10. Returning fourth year forward Jason Kapono, along with returning lettermen third year center forward TJ. Cummings, and second year guard forward Dijon Thompson led the team through this tough season. In a preseason interview, head coach Steve Lavin stated, Jason is a prolific scorer - one of the greatest in college basketball - and his overall game has improved each season. With our young team this season, Jason ' s leadership and experience will be critical to our success. Kapono, a 2002 Naismith Award Finalist and a three-time All-Pac-10 Performer, had yet another impressive season, leading the team in points scored. In the game against Washington State, he scored a remarkable 44 points, tying for the fifth-best single game total in UCLA history. Both Cummings and Thompson were the top scorers in several games each, while second years Andre Patterson and Cedric Bozeman led the team in rebounds and assists on many occasions. First year center Ryan Hollins gave the team added presence in the paint after he started logging in more minutes mid-season. Despite these efforts, disappointments impeded the team ' s performance, as they finished below .500 in conference play.

Athletics 157 Women ' s Basketball shoot rebouna pass woman The UCLA women ' s basketball team played an impressive Pac-10 season, and was most notable for reversing a three- game losing streak with a 72-64 victory at Pauley Pavilion against notorious rival USC. Facing another challenging schedule, the Bruins played 18 games against teams that advanced to post- season play last year. The season-opener pitted the Bruins against Hawaii, a WNIT team last season. The Bruins also faced Pac-10 post-season teams Oregon, Oregon State, Arizona State, Washington, USC, and Stanford. The team ' s successful season was attributed to their ten veterans and five talented newcomers. The starters included 2001 Pac-10 scoring phenomenon Michelle Greco, who left the 2001-2002 season after just five games due to medical reasons. She had been averaging 23.6 points per game prior to her withdrawal from play, and the team was happy to see her back for the 2002-2003 season. This year, Greco was joined by first year top scorers forward Julia Pitts and guard forward Lisa Willis. Also, third year forward Jamila Veasley topped the charts in rebounds in several games throughout the season. The most notable addition was first year guard Nikki Blue. In the team ' s match up against No. 20 Washington, Blue netted a career-high 35 points, breaking UCLA ' s school record for freshmen. Blue has been noted as one of the Pac-10 ' s most dynamic players, averaging 18.8 points per conference game. Her scoring average is second only to that of Greco, the Pac-10 ' s leading scorer. With fourth years Michelle Greco and Natalie Nakase graduating after this season, next year ' s squad will be in need of a leader, and in coach Kathy Olivier ' s opinion, Nikki will definitely be the one to step up.

They began the season with two victories in home waters at Sunset Canyon Recreation Center against Oregon State and UCSB. The squad then travelled to the Southern Methodist Classic competition and tournament, in which they placed fourth. We were only allowed to bring eight swimmers and one diver, so it was very focused on the individuals, assistant coach Greg Meehan said of the annual event. Next on the itinerary was the Trojan Diving Invitational where the team met up with its infamous cross-town rival. Fourth year co-captain Regan Gosnell led the Bruins through the three-day competition with her third place standing during the first two days and her number two position on the final day. One of the team ' s goals for this past year was to beat ' SC, which is never an easy task as they have an exceptionally talented group of athletes, Gosnell remarked. Continuing its journey, the Bruins sank the San Diego Torreros and washed the heat out of the Arizona State Sun Devils, defeating them in nine of the first ten events. Unfortunately, the Arizona Wildcats created a wave of their own that surged over the Bruins, handing them their first loss of the season. The team still won the Husky Invitational for the second year in a row and third year Malin Svahnstrom broke the meet record in the 200 IM, which automatically qualified her for the NCAA Championships. The Bruin divers also performed well at the Auburn Invitational, but lost both of their matches against northern California rivals Stanford and Cal. However, the Bruins walked away from these two losses with 22 season best achievements, propelling them through future victories. This success followed the group through the rest of their voyage and into the USA National Championships in Indianapolis.

They were not untouchable, though, losing a dual meet at Oregon State, taking a tie with Stanford, and coming in second place to Oklahoma University at the UCLA Invitational. However, by mid-February they climbed back up to the No. 1 ranking by consistently hitting their routines. Their efforts resulted in broken school records and a slew of perfect 10s. During the pre-season, head coach Valorie Kondos Field said her 2003 team was the best gymnastics team assembled so far in NCAA history, combining leadership and raw talent. With four perfect 10s, the team achieved its highest score ever in an away meet, in a 198.4 to 198.15 victory over No. 7 Arizona State on February 16th. It was the fourth time this season that the Bruins reached the 198 mark, and only the sixth time in school history. According to first year phenomenon Kate Richardson, who began her collegiate career in the Bruins ' first meet of the season with the highest all-around debut score in school history (39.6), UCLA ' s effective coaching and supportive teammates were essential in fostering a gymnasts ' successes during the season. Looking forward to the Pac-10 Championship UCLA hosted in late March, Field stated, Our biggest competitor is ourselves. If we hit our routines, we will win. And win they did. Gearing up for the NCAA Championships in Nebraska, the Bruins hosted the 2003 Pac-10 Championship in March at Pauley Pavilion. Richardson won the individual all-around with a career-high 39.825, helping No. 1-ranked UCLA capture the team title. Richardson was named Pac-10 Freshman of the Year, fourth year Onnie Willis was named Pac-10 Gymnast of the Year, and Field was named Co-Coach of the Year. An outspoken fan of the women ' s gymnastics team, legendary basketball coach John Wooden participated in the awards ceremony at the conclusion of the meet. The event marked UCLA ' s fourth Pac-10 Championship win in five years (and eleventh overall). The Bruins finished with a total team score of 198.175, setting a new Pac-10 Championship record.

Men ' s Volleyball- spike side out raly slam As part of the men ' s volleyball team, first year volleyball star and avid Halo player Patrick Nihipali was no stranger to kills. In fact, he ' s been a killer for most of his life, taking great pride at what he does best. Nihipali came to college on a full ride, hired for his adept skill and deadly aim. When asked to simplify his art, he casually commented, Volleyball is much like a good game of Halo (a new first person shooter game for Xbox), you work hard to catch the opponent off guard and then slam home a bomb, hoping to kill him quick. He may be light-hearted about the technique of the sport, but a little research would show that this number one high school pick in the nation was a very serious and talented addition to this past year ' s team. Athletic prowess coupled with experienced coaching built a solid foundation for success this past year. Starting the season with wins in eight out of ten of their opening games, the team continued to excel under the leadership of second year Jonathan Acosta, who led the team in kills game after game. After defeating cross-town rival USC to clinch the 26th Annual Kilgour Cup, the Bruins established their dominance on the road, defeating a string of schools, including UC Santa Barbara (3-0), Pacific University (3-1), and Stanford (3-0). The team went on to defeat La Verne at Pauley, keeping alive a five game winning streak. Riddled with setbacks, however, eighth-ranked UCLA lost 3-1 to the defending champion Hawaii at Pauley Pavilion on March 15th.

This cycle of relentless spiking, blocking, and setting called for much hard work and practice. These Lady Bruins made this season certainly memorable by showing pure effort and spirit on and off the court. As first year undeclared student Hailey Jorgensburg said, Everyone on the team had the desire to win and to get better. With impressive hitting percentages, the team never ceased to attack their opponents with full force. Second year Brynn Murphy commented, we worked on being smart and making good decisions with our attacks. There were many times when the women ' s volleyball team was clearly the underdog. They often surprised sports fans with their ability to work beyond hardships. In the face of adversity, the Bruins wore down their opponents and improved as the game progressed. Then halfway through their season, a key player, fourth year middle blocker Angela Eckmier suffered a ruptured ligament in her leg during practice. It was disheartening for the team to lose such a dedicated player who always gave maximum effort, said Banachowski. Ranked seventh in the Pac-10 for her 1.17 blocks per game, Eckmier provided guidance for the younger members of the team. Nevertheless, this loss did not deter the team from achieving their goals because deep down, we all really loved the sport and wanted to play, said Miriam Denard, a first year undeclared student.

The game was evidence of pure Bruin dominance as the Bruins swept the Trojans in a 6-1 win. I was really happy with our doubles, Martin said. It was a great start, especially [for the UCLA men ' s tennis team] at No. 1. During the second half of the season, the Bruins crushed the Trojans again, sealing a 7-0 victory against the cross- town rivals. The team continued to play solid tennis at the USTA ITA National Team Indoor Championships in Louisville, Kentucky. The Indoor Championships showcased 13 of the top 16 teams in the nation, including Duke, Florida State, and San Diego State. The Bruins emerged victorious against Duke but suffered their first loss of the season to Florida State in the semifinals. This season welcomed Chris Lam, a second year and Santa Clara transfer to the squad. The native Hawaiian proved to be an asset to the team as he helped down rivals and secure victory for the Bruins. In the Sherwood tournament held in January, Lam crushed the tournament ' s No. 2 seed, Maiberger, leading the team to victory. With high rankings and a plethora of talent, the Bruins had little reason to be nervous. We don ' t look at our ranking as something to stress out about, said third year Martin Matkowski, but we have to prove that we deserve to be number one. Our goal is the national championship, so expectations are high. With these high expectations, the Bruins roaring team spirit and top-notch players helped them move toward the NCAA title. by Karishma Chullani Scott Quintard ASUCLA Photography Front Row: Jason Nguyen, Rodrigo Grilli, Erfan Djahangiri, Jean-Julien Rojer, Chris Surapol.

Led by head coach Stella Sampras, the team played a successful season of tennis. Early in the season, the Bruins played in the Pac-10 Indoor Championships held at the Lloyd Nordstrom Center at the University of Washington. The team secured a flight II doubles title but lost in the flight I doubles team against Washington ' s All American Team and USC. In singles, the Bruins were stopped at the quarterfinals after struggling with inconsistencies. Later in the season, the Lady Bruins cruised past Tennessee but lost to Florida and Georgia in the National Team Indoor Championships held in Madison, Wisconsin. The collaborative team effort and outstanding talent of the squad was evident in the first few games, as the Bruins swept Long Beach and UC Irvine in successive home wins. The victories came despite the loss of third year Lauren Fisher and first year Ferial Esseghir, who were both recovering from injuries. One of the most challenging matches of the season was that against cross-town rival, USC held at the Los Angeles Tennis Center. After superb playing on both sides, the Trojans secured a 4-3 victory against the Bruins. Their second showdown ended in similar tragedy, as the Trojans secured a 5-2 victory. Both games pitted Bruin Sara Walker, ranked sixth nationally, and Trojan Jewel Peterson, the number three seed in the nation against each other. Despite the rivalry, there was obvious warmth between these two athletes. We are such good friends and we are so competitive with each other that it is always fun tennis every time we play, Walker said. With few veterans on the team, the squad relied heavily on the potential of its first years. The growth of these newcomers was evident, as the team knocked off No. 17 Texas and crushed Arizona as the season neared its close, securing a record of 12-6 overall and 3-1 in the Pac-10. Riding the wave of a winning streak, the team continued on its quest for the national title. by Karishma Chullani Scott Quintard ASUCLA Photography Front Row: Jackie Carleton, Mariko Fritz- Krockow, Sara Walker, Anya Loncaric, Kate Jolson, Nina Yaftali.

(Not Pictured: Susi Wild). Athletics 177 Men ' s Golf- honor wood eagle prestige There were times when members of the men ' s golf team could be seen swinging their imaginary clubs around campus, hitting every shot with poise. In fact, first year Spencer Levin offhandedly said, Whenever I have a minute between classes, I drop my bag and set up the motions for a swing. Levin was not the only corky one. Co-captain and fourth year Travis Johnson was often seen wearing a bike helmet on the green, a habit resulting from a past unexpected attack by a stray golf ball. This quirky team certainly never ceased to enjoy themselves as they performed brilliantly at various tournaments throughout the year. They set new school and tournament records, shooting 3600 par at a tournament hosted by University of the Pacific. The Bruins consequently swept the competition, winning by 20 strokes. Ranked ninth, the team traveled to Hawaii for the 13th Annual Taylor Made, hosted by Hawaii-Hilo University, where they clinched first place with a 54-hole score of 836, 20-under par. The win was an obvious morale booster, especially after Levin ' s tragic disqualification due to a procedural error. When asked about the mechanics of a good game, Johnson explained, You must be extremely dedicated toward an efficient work ethic and willing to help your teammates reach individual goals. It helped that many members of the team grew up in southern California playing junior golf together, which created a camaraderie that continually developed as many shared classes and ate team dinners together. Inspiration stemmed from co-captains Johnson and fourth year John Merrick, as well as from coach O.D. Vincent, a new addition to the team. Although Vincent was new to UCLA, he was not a novice to the world of coaching collegiate golf. In fact, he was the only former conference golfer to have won Pac-10 medallist honors and earned conference Coach of the Year acclaim. Golf is a very special and unique sport because it is an endless pursuit of perfection, said Johnson. Even though there were moments when it seemed like the balls avoided the holes, in the end, this pursuit of perfection produced a team that quickly gained, and held, the respect of its opponents. by Jennie Zhu Front Row: Coach O.D.

Boasting a combination of seasoned players and a talented newcomer, they strove to repeat the honors achieved last year that set UCLA apart from other Pac-10 schools. A sport that required finesse and precise calculations, golf demanded much from these Lady Bruins. I enjoyed the fact that it was an individual sport that was mentally challenging. It challenged you in different ways in every single round you played. The rewards were really great because it was such a difficult and frustrating game, said second year Yvonne Choe. Named Pac-10 Newcomer of the Year in 2002, Choe was also a member of the Director ' s Honor Roll for multiple quarters. Australian newcomer Susie Mathews, internationally recognized for her skills as a golfer, further complemented the team dynamic, working well with returnees to maximize individual potential. Third year Gina Umeck felt that they were a very close team. Considered very consistent, Umeck was a standout player this season. She felt the memorable experiences were the small things that happened during trips. Choe added, It was always funny to sit down and laugh at corky shots or maneuvers after a game was over. One time, our assistant coach tripped over a rock ledge but sprang back up like a jack in the box. Now THAT was funny. Even though the team possessed a great appreciation for the simple joys of golf and camaraderie, it also set its sight on winning tournaments and eventually nationals. The year started off successfully as the team finished second at the Kent Youel Invitational, hosted by the University of Hawaii in Oahu. This victory set the tone for the rest of the year as they placed well in the tournaments to follow. The team placed second after the first round in the Northrop Grumman Regional Challenge, swiftly moving up the collegiate ranks in their bid for the championship. by Jennie Zhu Front Row: Amanda Carmichael, Yvonne Choe, Melissa Martin, Vivan Phosomran, Krystal Shearer, Saki Uechi, Coach Carrie Leary.

One varsity team placed first in the race and the other led for second with Loyola Marymount. race ergo meter coxswa i n The women ' s rowing team started the season off with great expectations, stemming not only from their remarkable inaugural NCAA season, in which they finished seventh in the Pac-10 Championships, but also from the signing of six student athletes to National Letters of Intent early in the recruitment process. The signing of such talented individuals reflected the strong interest the young rowing program had attracted throughout the country during the 2002 season, and exemplified the dedication and hard work these girls had put into their s port. As head coach Amy Fuller commented before the season began, This year ' s recruiting class marks another big step forward as we work toward our ultimate goal of qualifying the team for the NCAA championships. The team ' s noteworthy performances included winning first and second place at the Head of the Marina race in early November, as well as a third place in the Women ' s Open Eight at the Autumn Rowing Festival in Newport. The 18 rowers from last year ' s crew spearheaded these victories, helping to guide and transition the younger girls to the high standards of the squad. As fourth year psychology student Dawn Regan commented, The team has really come together this year, having grown both in number and talent with our newly recruited class. Our coach encourages the older girls to interact often with the younger girls so that we can teach them what we know and learn from their strengths as well. Fuller and assistant coach Guillermo Lemus, along with new additions Bill Zack and William Nguyen made up the coaching staff for the 2002-2003 season. Due to their own rowing experiences, most notably Fuller ' s trips to the 1992, 1996, and 2000 Olympics, the advice and foresight they provided the team worked to the advantage of the talented group. The 2002-2003 season continued the tradition of excellence in the women ' s rowing program. The team clinched several impressive victories as the season progressed, capturing the 8th annual Berg Cup and the Karen Hock-Hjelm Cup despite formidable opposition. Regan put the season into perspective by saying, UCLA ' s program is definitely on the up and can only get better from here.

Everyone ' s training well this year and it looks like it ' s going to be a promising season, second year distance runner Jon Rankin predicted at the start of the season. The Bruin vaulters launched the season at the Pole Vault Summit in Reno, Nevada where third year Jared Drake and second years Yoo Kim and Pat Luke represented the Bruin men. Two weeks later, the team kicked off this year ' s indoor season at the Husky Invitational at the University of Washington. The months of off-season training paid off as the Bruins, competing against over 60 teams, qualified five athletes for the NCAA indoor championships. Normally I ' m rather apprehensive about opening meets because athletes normally haven ' t found their rhythm, but this time we had real breakthroughs all-around, head coach Art Venegas said after the meet. Newly ranked the 15th place collegiate track and field team, the Bruins continued their success as they traveled up to Boise State to compete in the United Heritage Invitational. Long distance runners and second years Nick Thorton and Ben Aragon led the team with their victories in the 800m and the 3000m races, respectively. After taking a quick break from the season to participate in the historic Los Angeles Invitational Indoor Track Meet at the Los Angeles Sports Center, the Bruins continued their victory streak at the Mountain Pacific Sports Federation Indoor Track and Field Championships hosted by Boise State. There, they defended their team title with six first place finishes. After a last chance qualifying meet in Seattle, the indoor team headed to Fayetteville, Arkansas for the NCAA Indoor Track and Field Championships where it concluded its triumphant season with eight points, resulting in a 29th place finish. With wins over Cal Poly-San Luis Obispo, Cal State Fullerton, and Cal State Los Angeles, the outdoor team had an energetic opening to its home season. Next, the Bruins won the 800m, the hammer, and the shot put at the Cal State Northridge invitational a week before the long distance runners traveled to the Stanford Invitational.

The team confirmed Reynolds ' statement, beginning with the Pole Vault Summit in Reno, Nevada, where first year Chelsea Johnson held the top Bruin spot by placing fifth in section one. Then the Bruins dashed up north to the University of Washington for the Washington Invitational, the first of eight indoor meets. As the defending NCAA indoor champions, the women ' s distance medley relay team secured its bid for the season ' s championship with an automatic qualifying mark, finishing second behind Stanford. More qualifying marks were received by third year Lena Nilsson, who finished third in the 3000m and by fourth year Tiffany Burgess, who won the 800m race. Continuing onto the Potato State, the women nabbed top honors at Boise State ' s United Heritage Invitational by winning both the one-mile and the 300m events. The Bruins then returned home to compete in the 43rd annual Los Angeles Invitational indoor track and field meet. The indoor team then traveled to Boise a second time for the Mountain Pacific Sports Federation Indoor Track and Field Championships, where it placed second for the second year in a row. The indoor team ended its season at the NCAA Indoor Championships in Fayetteville, Arkansas. With the help of Nilsson ' s first place finish in the 800m, the team finished eighth with a final score of 24 points. The outdoor competitors had their first home meet at Drake Stadium, triumphing over Cal Poly San Luis Obispo and Cal State Los Angeles.

In addition, head coach Gary Adams returned to the staff, marking his 29th season with the Bruins. The team also boasted one of the nation ' s top recruiting classes this season, ranked fifth by Baseball America and seventh by Collegiate Baseball. Among eleven newcomers were the 2002 Division I GIF Player of the Year, a three-time league MVP, a fifth round draft pick, an ABCA All-American, two players of the year, and three GIF title winners. Despite their talent, Adams made sure the new players worked hard, commenting before the season, Our freshmen are highly prized, but no different from everyone else, and they will have to earn their playing time. They had to work hard, considering the team played one of the most difficult schedules in the nation, a signature of Adams ' program. They faced two of eight participants in the College World Series, Pac-10 foe Stanford, and the 2002 NCAA Champions, the Texas Longhorns. The season opened with some remarkable performances, such as third year short stop Preston Griffin ' s seven-game hitting streak, which included two home runs. Second year outfielder Billy Susdorf was also named Pac-10 player of the week, earning this title after hitting two home runs, one double, and seven RBIs in the Bruin ' s opening series against Cal State Northridge. The team faced some hardships mid-season, struggling after losing 7-5 to the UCSB Gauchos.

As the preseason favorites to win the Pac-10 conference, which had seven of its eight teams advance to last year ' s postseason, the team was prepared for a challenging season. The team started off the season on the right foot as they won the UNLV Classic Championship. Third year pitcher Keira Goerl ' s expert pitches helped the team cruise through these games victoriously. She pitched a one-hit shutout with twelve strikeouts to lead the team to a 15-0 victory against UC Riverside in early February. LSU and South Carolina also fell to the Bruins with a united effort from the offense and defense. Goerl struck out nine batters and allowed just two hits against LSU, while third year Claire Sua and first year Andrea Duran hit powerful home runs. The team ' s success stemmed from expert coaching and emerging talent, as three players on the team were included in the USA Softball Collegiate Player of the Year Watch List. These distinguished women included Goerl, fourth year first baseman and catcher Tairia Mims, and fourth year short stop Natasha Watley, all of whom were among the list of the top 40 softball players in the nation. Mims led the team with an incredible .576 batting average.

Since coming to UCLA, Tauheedah Baker-Jones has achieved more than academic excellence at a prestigious university. She lias taken her education a step further by contributing to Los Angde.s with her extensive community service, especially with the tegic Action for a Just Economy (SAJE) program. As a volunteer, she helped this program establish partnerships with local banks that allow low-income families to open bank accounts. She met with a California state legislator to advocate this program which eventually led to the state adoption of the Electronic Benefit Transfer system. After realizing the impact she could have on the community, she began helping with Beyond Shelter, SAJE, the Fernald Child Study Center, High School Advising Program, and Career Based Outreach Program, among many others. Learning from her experiences, Baker- Jones realized, [It ' s] not until you branch out and realize the struggles that other people are going through that you figure out it ' s in your power to help. A history student with a minor in near Eastern studies, Baker-Jones moved from Washington D.C. to Los Angeles for an affordable education and to attend the school of her dreams. Being a wife and a mother of three (aged four, three, and one) has not hindered her in the least. She has worked diligently, while still structuring her life around her family, to take advantage of all that college offered. Selected as the Top Student Researcher at UCLA, she worked on an honors thesis that totaled more than 60 pages. Titled Black, White, or Gray: A Historiography of the Duality in African-American Religion, it was presented at 2003 UC Day in Sacramento. Many may be fearful of taking great risks. If you look at things that way, it hinders your growth and development. People should challenge themselves, affirmed Baker-Jones. Some people say that you should aim low so that you are never disappointed. I don ' t believe in that. I think you should aim high. Graduating with a 3.63 GPA, Baker-Jones has certainly aimed high, and she anticipates obtaining a Masters in education and eventually a Ph.D. in either sociology or education. article by Jennie Zhu photographed by Tatiana Weyna 219 Seniors oF the Year- Chiu - Chrisman- Vivian Chiu Chemistry Mariae S.

Biology student with an education minor, Christopher made significant contributions to UCLA, while A. From involvement in campus organizations to community ' 1 Khau has been active in all aspects of school life. He hlayed outstanding leadership qualities in his dedication to community service. As Director of the UCLA Watts Tutorial Program, he collaborated with others to plan and implement activities for Watts students and tutors. During the course of his undergraduate years, he served as a volunteer for Bruin Buddies, Innerwarmth, the Career Based Outreach Program, Kids Korner, Project Living Hope, and the National Society of Collegiate Scholars. Through his active involvement in community service and on-campus tutoring, he learned that an effective leader does not lead his group, but serves them. He leads the group to a goal comprised of a combination of everyone ' s ideas rather than just the leader ' s vision. Chau has also demonstrated tremendous academic excellence during his undergraduate years at UCLA. He conducted a wide range of independent projects including a research project on the mutualistic relationship between Cecropia saplings and Azteca ants, done while studying abroad in Monteverde, Costa Rica. His results were presented to a panel of students, faculty, and researchers. Chau was also a recipient of the distinguished Lena de Groff Scholarship in 15)98, a testament to his hard work. His advice to other determined Baiins is: Before you leave, remember to take a moment to stop. Close your eyes. Breathe in all the other memories you have ever had of school. And remember that when you open your eyes again, these memories can disappear just as quickly as they came. Thus, live passionately, view humbly, and appreciate the small things in life. Chau ' s contributions to his community, respect for others ' opinions, efforts to excel in various environments, and constant work toward his goals has been guided by this philosophy. His future plans include medical school and the Teach for America program. He hopes to become a family physician and teach science at a university or community college. article by Karishma Chullani photographed by Tatiana Weyna 237 Seniors oF the Year Gonzalgo - Guardado Reuben L.

From furniture design to filmmaking to writing, Benjamin Kawaichi looks at every project not as a chance to create something aesthetic externally, but as a chance to investigate internally: [his] thought process, emotions, curiosity, and fears. Kawaichi ' s efforts have reached fruition in the form of numerous awards and invaluable experiences, the most prestigious of which was a $3,000 first place scholarship from the Design Department for his nine-minute short film about a food photographer ' s attempt to escape superficiality. He also received second place for most creative photography in the Adobe Partners by Design student design contest and the honor of being profiled on Adobe Systems ' education website, where only two professors and two students were chosen from the Design Department to represent UCLA. Additionally, an article Kawaichi wrote for his high school newspaper on biracialism won a Columbia University Gold Circle Award for excellence in writing. Even at UCLA, Kawaichi has taken an interest in his hapa culture, which he demonstrated through his participation in the local Hapa Club. This has allowed him to relax and find community. Although the crystal ball remains blurry for Kawaichi ' s future beyond graduation, he has prepared through avenues of work experience, including positions such as environmental design and production assistant at Ethos Design, head of timeline renovation for the UCLA Athletic Hall of Fame, and teaching assistant for the Precollege Graphic Design program at the California College of Arts and Crafts. During Fall quarter of 2001, Kawaichi travelled abroad to Florence, Italy to study art at the Academia Italiana, which gave him ample time to explore the unique culture of Europe. After so many diverse experiences, Kawaichi has countless choices for the future. I ' m going to keep looking until I find a situation I ' m creatively satisfied in, he explained. For future Bruins, he warns them to realize the position they are currently in, because from now on, nothing will ever be the same. article byjoni Park photographed by Tatiana Weyna -255 Seniors of the Year Klepper- Koo- Chad J.

Staying active has been one of her major personal objectives, accomplished by being an active member of the UCLA Outdoor Adventures Club for four years and rowing crew during her first year. The community has certainly benefited from Richard ' s involvement. She volunteered at the UCLA Medical Center assisting in cardio-thoracic surgery research as well as escorting patients throughout the hospital. She also helped in the maintenance of the UCLA Botanical Gardens by raking, trimming, and planting to keep the area beautiful for the community. One of her most personal activities has been her participation in the Non-profit Eating Disorder Recovery Program, where she acts as a role model for other women who may still be suffering from anorexia, bulimia, and compulsive overeating. This is part of the positive approach she has taken in dealing with her personal recovery. Referring to her own struggles, she said, I am one of the lucky ones. Being divorced from the tragedy of a life lived obsessed with food, my body, and exercise; it is my hope that a record of my recovery can prevent another woman or man from the same tragic fate. After graduating in Spring 2003, Richard intends to take a year off to travel and spend time with those she loves. After her year off, she plans to attend law school on the East coast and continue counseling others. article by Jamie Ladd photographed by Tatiana Weyna 2 2 Seniors oF the Year -Mendoza - Miller- Fernando R.

Misty ( kiss Hchards has serv Bas a paradigm of the motto ' Carpe )iem, ' thriving oecessity to seize As a psyc Bology student withninor in applied developmental psychology, RichardWias participated in seWal research projects at the UCLA Medical Center, California Institute of Technology, and the National Institute of Health. Not only has she maintained a 3.6 GPA, but she has also participated in a plethora of community service activities. Misty was the co-founder and president of the Health Outreach Pre- Medical Experience (HOPE). As president of the program, she attended local health fairs and exposed UCLA students to various aspects of health care. As coordinator of the Pre-Medical Rotations and Observation Volunteer Experience, Misty supervised students and presented information at monthly meetings. Serving as the vice president of the Golden Key International Honors Society for students with exceptionally high academic accomplishments, Misty was actively involved in organizations on campus. One of her most challenging endeavors involved the establishment of the Undergraduate Psychology Journal. As editor-in-chief, Richards was responsible for supervising the editorial board and managing editors. I was always passionate about research and wanted to create a forum for undergraduates to present their work, she said. Misty ' s vast contributions to the UCLA community brought her numerous awards and honors. She was recently a recipient of the 2002 Distinguished Bruin Award, a prestigious award given to only two exceptional seniors. Not only did she attain highest honors in behavioral science, but she also received a Vice Provost Award for the Undergraduate Science Journal and a scholarship from the UCLA Medical Center. Misty was one of nine recipients to receive the National Institute of Health Scholarship. As a firm believer in her dreams, Misty has sought to channel her energy into all aspects of school life. Without dreams, I feel that it is hard to find one ' s place in the world. A true Bruin pursues the dreams she holds close to their hearts, and I strive to integrate this into my drive to success. Upon graduation, Misty will work full-time at the National Institute of Health in Washington D.C. She hopes to eventually attend medical school and train to be a psychiatrist, article by Karishma Chullani photographed by Tatiana Weyna 290 Seniors oF the Year Aknaf Alexandei Bioc Raongthum-Rehder Anchulee J.

Tran Biology Linda Tran Biochemistry 308 Graduates Avishai Shraga ' -- YOU WORK HARD FOR WHAT YOU GET, AND YOU GET WHAT YOU DESERVE. When asked what kind of personal attributes exemplify the ideals of a Bruin, senior of the year Avishai Shraga confidently listed five definitive qualities. First, he said, a Bruin is a hard worker. As a computer science student with a technical minor in economics, Shraga undoubtedly has worked hard during his time at UCLA. In addition to maintaining good grades, Shraga has served as the I Director of ASUCLA Student Media Online. In this position, he has managed the student media websites and created UCLAProfessors.com, which is now part of bruinwalk.com, an indispensable tool for students that allows them to rate and read reviews of over 2,800 professors. Secondly, a Bruin is ambitious. With an enormous school like UCLA, Shraga believes that each student should strive to stand out. After receiving his Bachelor of Science degree in computer science, Shraga hopes to complete a Masters degree in the same area at UCLA ' s School of Engineering, to which he has already been admitted, while concurrently completing a MBA at the Anderson Business School. In addition to academic endeavors, through Bruins for Israel, a pro-Israel student group, and UCLA Hillel, the foundation for Jewish life on campus, Shraga has helped educate the community (his third criteria) about conflicts in the Middle East and elsewhere. After being raised in a tight-knit Jewish community, Shraga described coming to UCLA as an opportunity to break out of his Jewish-shell by meeting types of people he had never met before. This culture shock led him to realize that there are 101 things that you can argue about with your classmates, but at the end of the day, you ' re still classmates. This realization exemplifies the fourth quality of a Bruin always remaining respectful of others ' beliefs. Finally, and perhaps most importantly, a Bruin should know how to have fun. Taking full advantage of living in Los Angeles, Shraga learned to both ski and surf, asking, Where else in the world can you do both? By following his own criteria for being a true Bruin, Shraga has made the most of his time at UCLA. To future students, he advised, Seize the day. When people tell you that your time here will pass in a heartbeat, they ' re lying; it ' s really faster. article byjoni Park photographed by Tatiana Weyna 309 Seniors oF the Year- -Tran-Tsao- Nellie Tran Psychology Phu T.

Four years ago, 2003 graduates Edward Chiao, Poa Toy, and Sandeep Thakkar enjoy social life of Dykstra Four. Friendships forged first year can either make or break one ' s sanity and academic success while surviving the bustling social life of residence halls. LEFT: Adorable one-year-old Juna Kim chews on a toy in the yard of her first home in New Jersey. Bruins often moved far and wide before making UCLA their home for four years. CENTER: Jennifer Morabito happily enjoys a box of Cheerios at home, years before she would come to appreciate the wide cereal selection in the dining halls. RIGHT: Cuauhtemoc Ortega, sits tall and smiles upon a rock. This same commanding yet friendly presence became part of his well-known character as editor-in-chief of The Daily Bruin. An eager freshman ventured into a new world. A determined sophomore overcame life ' s challenges with help from friends and family. With a worldy perspective, a junior returned home from the sights and smells of foreign lands. A senior continued a routine and prepared for the next frontier. As this yearbook comes to an end, remember those who helped you overcome the obstacles threatening your success. Friends, family, and even corporate patrons wish you well in your future endeavors. May these words of inspiration, inside jokes, and blatantly embarrassing baby pictures find you well in the future.

Colophon 397 ' 003 BruinLiFe StaFF- ft Thanks to the best crop of editors I could have asked for and my favorite BruinLife staff. I barely knew you a year ago, yet you accepted me and now support me. Through proofs, deadlines, sticky notes, rewrites, redesigns, databases, photo frustrations, flyers, and all, you have been amazing. Alice, bringing a calm face and mind to gather and pick up the pieces in a flurry of sticky notes, you have been my memory. Thank you so much, because many of us know I don ' t store anything in my brain. Rachel, you are so organized, so good with the numbers. Thank goodness for you, because I simply cannot hold and manipulate those figures in my head. And such good homemade dan tat! Anny Vu! Woman, you are amazing! A root canal and surgery and you still keep running. We thank you for the best marketing campaigns and most humorous presentations during staff meetings. Ntsai, you are an amazing woman of layout and design. No one can manipulate Quark like you can. Thank you for redesigning, and then redesigning through my indecision. 2004 will be even more wonderful! Vick, you worked hard to cut through the cheese and did it so well! I know you work the strangest hours sometimes and I appreciate your dedication even when you were about to drop with illness. Kelly, you are an amazing photoshop woman. Those divisions and seniors of the year are ALL your handy work. Emily, my favorite memory of you is still a certain New Orleans shriek at Vic. You are the best sports editor. Always on top of things, it was always a joy to hear you making your phone call rounds to writers and layout artists. =)Tim, Tina, SunMin, Diana, Mindy, Thanh, Victoria, Kate, Karishma, Jamie, Joni, Jennie, Matt, Mary, Patricia, Chuck, Dennis, Eugene, Jenna, Claudia, and Tatiana, I hope you are proud of the work you put into this book!

Mary Sugano Matthew Parsons Patricia Beaubelle Business and marketing... possibly the most difficult job on BruinLife simply because of the demographics of selling a college yearbook. But the business and marketing staff this year brought us closer and closer to just getting the word out on campus and bringing awareness of this product. Matthew Paul Parsons: You are the best. Thank you for always being there to help represent and of course we all love laminated sandwich boards! Patricia Beaubelle: You are so on top of everything and I really appreciate your presence and willingness to do anything and everything. Mary: You are the Database Queen. I ' m so glad you decided to come aboard because a lot of marketing is administrative work and we could never have gotten it together without you. From tabling in De Neve to row walks to the cheering of various sororities, it was real working with you three.

Karishma - I had my doubts about your quasi-real quotes and an influx of British spelling, but your growth this past year is apparent and your articles have been amazing.

Joni - Thanks for always giving every assignment your best effort, and for always managing to end up picking up wherever I left off. Your positive attitude will be a real asset to this book next year. Keep it up!

I wish you well in your future endeavors. ..don ' t forget us! Anna - Thanks for coming back to us and serving the cause with your wonderfully written gymnastics article. Your content has always been the most factual, and your highly informative pieces tell Jennie Zhu tales of great effort on your part.

After four years, the uncertainty persists, as prospects for the future are further strained by the threat of war. Remember you are not alone in your grief and insecurity, though it may sometimes seem that way. Defeat and loss you may yet taste, but to success and happiness now make haste. Good luck Bruins, may your future be bright. C .buck ( ' licw Jennifer Richardson sags
