Contents ♦ 3 June ♦ Panic swept through the coun¬ try as more than 50 reports of syringes in cans of Pepsi surfaced across the nation. Fearing a drastic decline in sales, the No.2 soft drink com¬ pany opened the doors to its manufacturing plants to the Food and Drug Administration. Mean¬ while Pepsi stood by its product with a refusal to remove it from stores and ads on television and in newspapers. The FDA found no evidence of tampering from within the bottling plants, prompting an investiga¬ tion that led to more than 20 arrests involving false tampering claims. June ♦ Following a ground-breaking cer¬ emony attended by Gov. Jim Guy Tucker, con¬ struction of the $20 million Center of Excel¬ lence for Poultry Science moved quickly toward its fall 1995 completion date. The Center will house the newly-formed Department of Poultry Science, as well as classroom and research facilities. M Wichser photo July 4 Women’s volleyball hired Chris Poole as its head coach. Poole, who previously coached at Arkansas State, was hired to help build the new athletic program that will play its first season in 1994-95. 4 ♦ Calendar Summer ♦ The rains fell, and the water rose while people in parts of Illinois, Iowa, Kansas, Missouri and Nebraska watched as their homes and lives were washed away by one of the worst natural disasters in U.S. history. Causing nearly $10 billion in damages, the floods wreaked havoc upon the Midwest, leav¬ ing 51 people dead and more than 60,000 without homes. The raging waters swept over levees and plowed through commu¬ nities, leaving many highways, such as these in Illinois, submerged and impassible. President Clinton declared more than 500 counties disaster areas and signed a $5.7 million federal aid pack¬ age to help victims re¬ build. M AP PHOTO July 4 Freshmen from around the country flocked to Fayetteville for New Student Orientation. The first of nine two-day sessions began on July 12 and featured everything from campus tours to Hog-calling in the Union ballroom. In addition to helping students prepare for college life, orientation provided fun events and free prizes at some of its booths. A WlCHSER PHOTO Summer ♦ With the worries of school behind them for three months, many students set out to have a good time. Some students went home, while others stayed in Fayetteville to work or attend summer school. Yet, when the studying and the jobs were done, students could be found relaxing in the sunshine, playing sports, like volley¬ ball, and hanging out by the pool. -4 Wichser photo Summer ♦ 5 August ♦ In the week before classes began, campus sprang to life as students returned to set up dorm rooms and apartments. Many stu¬ dents, like Kelly Whitecotton, discovered that unpacking wasn’t always easy, especially when space was limited. Enrollment in the fall was down from the previous year, due in part to higher admissions standards. ► WlCHSER PHOTO August ♦ On his four-day visit to the United States, Pope John Paul 11 conducted an outdoor Mass in Denver that formally concluded World Youth Day. Bat¬ tling the heat and dust, many of the more than 14,000 people in atten¬ dance sought treatment from the emergency medical crews on hand for the Mass.

The King of Pop went through months of relent¬ less media attention before making a reported $20 million out-of-court settlement. A AP photo Summer ♦ With the hot summer sun beaming down, students sat and listened to the sounds of music as local bands performed on the Union mall. Sponsored by University Programs, the series gave bands, such as Gypsy, an outlet to reach the students, while the students were able to enjoy free music and give¬ aways. A WlCHSER PHOTO August ♦ Sheik Omar Abdel-Rahman was charged with master¬ minding the plot behind the World Trade Center bombing that left six people dead and more than 1,000 injured. Fol¬ lowing his arrest and subsequent trial, the 55- year-old Egyptian sheik and four of his followers were convicted of con¬ spiracy to assault and sentenced to life in prison without parole. Summer ♦ 7 4 ♦ Sturgis Fellow¬ ship recipient Robert Tahsis Claus drowned off the coast of Guam. Claus was studying marine biology while on the island as part of the Fellowship’s overseas program. 6 ♦ Late-night talk show king David Letterman said good-bye to the “Peacock Network” as he moved to his new home in the Ed Sullivan Theater for CBS’ “Late Show with David Letterman.” After 11 years with NBC, Letterman signed with the No. 1 network for a reported $14 million a year when he was passed over for the “Tonight Show” seat vacated by Johnny Carson. The move gar¬ nered Letterman a 10:35 p.m. slot, which put his show on an hour earlier than at NBC and sparked a ratings race among late- night talk shows. With musician sidekick Paul Schaeffer and such fea¬ tures as the top ten list still by his side, Letterman came out on top of the ratings war. 4 AP photo 7 ♦ Lightning struck a UA dairy farm research building, igniting about 800 bales of hay that were stored inside. The fire destroyed the $50,000 building. 21-22 ♦ Red Cross volunteers moved into the Union ballroom for a two- day blood drive. Many students, including junior Tina Richmond, turned out to donate blood between classes. The Red Cross was preparing for the upcoming holiday season, when the blood supply is usually critical. ► Roberts photo 8 ♦ Calendar 2 ♦ Screaming to the sounds of the Razor- back Band, UA freshmen were treated to an evening of cheers and chants at the Freshmen Pep Rally held in the Chi Omega Greek Theater. The rally, sponsored by University Programs, was designed to help new students become familiar with the cheers used at the football games .-4 Wichser photo 13 ♦ History was made when the leaders of Israel and the Palestine Liberation Organization met in Washington to sign a peace treaty.

With their fourth coach in five seasons, the Razorback football squad looked to take flight under the tutelage of Coach Danny Ford. Ford, who led Clemson to the national SMU 10-6 S . Carolina 18-17 Alabama 3-43 championship in 1981, was looking to take advantage of his first head coaching job since leaving Clemson after the 1989 season. The one expectation from Hog fans around the nation was for Coach Ford to lead the Hogs back to prominence in a hurry. Memphis St. 0-6 Georgia 20-10 Tennessee 14-28 Ole Miss 0-19 Auburn 21-31 Miss. St. 13-13 Tulsa 24-11 LSU 42-24 Four Quarters, ah 60 minutes were needed for the Razorbacks to win their first two games of the season against SMU in the Cotton Bowl and South Carolina in Fayetteville. The Flogs came back to defeat SMU after being down 6- 3 with only 6:20 left in the game. Led by Oscar Grays three carries for 35 yards in the Flogs’ final drive, Oscar Malone ' s one-yard touchdown with 39 seconds left put Arkansas ahead for good. In similar fashion, Malone again scored the winning touchdown a week later against then No. 19 South Carolina in the game’s final minutes. Arkansas almost found its way into the top 25 after the game, and suddenly, expectations were even higher. Seasonal Setbacks. A rough stretch in the schedule, however, would bring the Razorback team and its fans back to reality as the Hogs dropped five of their next six games and tied the seventh against a weak Mississippi State team. In those six games, the Hogs managed to beat only a depleted Georgia Bulldog squad. By the time Homecoming rolled around, the Hogs had their backs to the wall for bowl game possibilities. Auburn beat the Hogs during Homecoming 38-24 and eventually went on to be the only undefeated team in the country at the end of the season. The Auburn loss, coupled with the tie to Mississippi State, knocked the Hogs out of bowl contention. Porker Pride. They finished just as they started, playing hard and winning. With the last two games counting for pride only, the Hogs went on to defeat Tulsa in Fayetteville for their last home game of the season, and then it was whipping time for the LSU Tigers in a nationally televised game on ESPN. hog ♦ pen Danny Ford. Ford immediately brought a winning attitude to the Hogs. His inspiration helped the Hogs find the mental toughness to go 3-4-1 in the rugged SEC. “You’re basically going to do it his way or you ' re not going to be out there playing, tight end Kirt Botkin said of Ford. “The whole team has a world of confidence in him. Tyrone Chatman. The senior linebacker embraced his chance to be a key leader for the physical Razorback defense. “In the past few years, what we have been missing is someone who is both very vocal and who leads by example, Chatman said before the season. “I want to do both. His performance during the season more than backed up his predictions. Oscar Malone. The sophomore tailback, despite missing three games in mid¬ season to a knee injury, led the Hogs in rushing. Malone attributed much of his success to good blocking, his speed and his size. “I ' m glad to have my size because most people say they can ' t see me until I go through the hole.

The Hogs defensive coordinator has earned a reputation among the players as a fearsome motivator in his four years with Arkansas ' defense. “Before a game, he ' s got the defense thinking they can run through a wall, comerback Dean Peevy said of the Hogs defensive wizard. Henry Ford. The senior defensive lineman led the Hogs in sacks and tackles behind the line of scrimmage this year. For his impressive skills, he was selected by the Houston Oilers as the 26th pick in the first round of the NFL draft. Teammate Issac Davis, an offensive lineman, was selected in the second round by the San Diego Chargers. Barry Lunney, Jr. The sophomore from Fort Smith, also a pitcher for Norm DeBrieyn ' s baseball Hogs, anchored the quarterback position for the Hogs. “He just goes out there and does what he has to do to make the team better, tailback Oscar Malone said of the young leader. Winless In Little Rock, Again. AT WAR MEMORIAL: 0-2-1 ROLLER COASTER RIDE. The 1993 season was a year of ups and downs. After winning their first two games of the season, the Razorbacks were again relegated to a long, non¬ bowl season. But, nothing the Razorbacks did on “Sometimes thefans think the players are in a fantasy land, but it’s a real world for the players and what hap¬ pened to them affects them as real people. ” •Rick Schaeffer, UA sports information director, on the effect of Shannon Wright’s suicide on the team. the field could overshadow the suicide of starting linebacker Shannon Wright only days after he played the best game of his career against Tennessee. Yet, thei Hogs still played on in tribute to their teammate and tried to give their faithful fans something to cheer about. Even the slated renovations for the Broyles Center did not go as well as was expected. The renovations, intended to boost recruiting and serve as a showcase for fans, finished months behind schedule. On The Wrong Road. The Hogs’ home away from home wasn’t too sweet this year. Even though the Hogs ended with a record of 5- 5-1, they failed to collect a win in Little Rock for the second straight season. The Hogs began their Little Rock campaign on Sept. 25 by losing to Memphis State 6-0. During the loss to the Tigers, tailback Oscar Malone suffered a knee injury that sidelined him through the middle of the season. The Hogs then received a visit on Oct. 9 from a strong Tennessee team. Despite an impressive effort by the Hogs, Vol quarterback Heath Shuler tore apart the Razorback secondary, proving why he was second in the Heisman Trophy balloting. The Hogs fell 28-14. Little Rock Slump Continues. Resolved not to lose the Little Rock finale against Mississippi State on Nov. 6, the Razorbacks did just that — not lose. But they didn’t exactly win either. In a game the Hogs needed to win, they squandered away their hopes for a bowl game. After a Marius Johnson touchdown put the Razorbacks ahead 13-10 with 5:36 left to play, David Boulware missed the extra-point. Minutes later, MSU kicked the game-tying field goal to extend the Hogs’ winless streak in Little Rock to six. 12 ♦ Sports Telling It Like It Is.

The 1993 production was directed by associate profes¬ sor of drama, Patricia Romanov, who said that the play is as important today as it was forty years ago. “It’s full of family stuff: sib¬ ling rivalry, greed over inherit¬ ance, alcoholism and disease,” she said. The play is about the decay of two marriages: that of Big Mama and Big Daddy, a southern plan¬ tation owner, and that of their son Brick and his wife Maggie. Both marriages are dying because of deceit and jealousy. Williams’ play focuses on these relationships and the rela¬ tionship between Big Daddy and Brick, who never lived up to his father’s expectations. “Cat on a Hot Tin Roof’ pre¬ sented acting opportunities for women to portray chara cters that were before their time, if not revo¬ lutionary. Daphne Hamilton, who played the title role of Maggie the cat, called the experience “emotion- a lly gratifying.” “Maggie embodies everything a woman goes through,” Hamilton said. “She has to fight PH0T0 for love and compassion. She is living in the 50s before it was accepted for a woman to be strong.” The second play of the season moved from the tradi¬ tional theatrical atmosphere of the Fine Arts Center, to the more intimate setting of Studio 404 on the fourth floor of Kimpel Hall. Dexter Roger Dixon, assistant professor of drama, di¬ rected the production of “Bum This,” which sold out for almost every performance. “Burn This” was written by Lanford Wilson in 1986, and was the most contemporary play in the fall season. The play chronicled the lives of friends and family a fter the tragic death of a young male dancer. “Burn This” explored themes of isolation, metamorphosis, homosexu¬ ality and uncontrollable passion. The play had a small cast with Kenn Johnson and Sarah Colonna in the male and female lead. The passionate performances and the frequent use of graphic language in “Burn This” left an unforgettable mark on audience members, some of whom were disturbed enough to walk out during the middle of the shows. The third production of the season returned to the realm of classic American drama when Amy Herzberg, assistant profes¬ sor of drama, directed the popu¬ lar Broadway musical, “Guys and Dolls.” This play was adapted from the short stories of American writer, Damon Runyon. The musical is set in the prohibition years of 1920s New York. The principal characters include the guys, young gamblers always looking for a crap game, the dolls, young dancers who want to marry the guys and the young mission¬ aries who want to save their souls. The musical included such famous show tunes as “A Bushel and a Peck,” “Luck be a Lady” and “If I were a Bell.” Taking the leads in the UA production were Frankie Hatcher as Miss Sarah and Rob Sutton as Sky Masterson, an unlikely couple drawn together by destiny. Also star¬ ring as the show’s other leading couple were Justin Fletcher as Nathan Detroit and Lara Jo Hightower as Miss Adalaide, who finally head to the alter after fifteen years of engagement. by Susannah Jarrell The fall production of “Bum This” sold out almost every one of its performances in Studio 404. The controversial play starred Sarah Colonna as Anna. Jason Brown played her jealous boyfriend. ♦ University Theatre fall season packs the house Fall Plays ♦ 15 Whether in Barnhill, the ballroom or the WAC, superstars, lecturers, comedians and young upstarts keep the campus entertained and educated. From heated debates in the Union ballroom to rip-roarin’ country concerts in Barnhill Arena, stars and notables from around the globe kept students entertained and informed throughout the fall semester. Kicking off the season’s lecture series, University Programs brought Morton Downey, Jr. and Dave Pallone to campus in September for “Gay Rights in America: The Great Debate.” Downey, best known for his radio and television talk shows, and Pallone, a gay man who was a professional umpire for 18 years, agreed that homosexuals should have the same rights as everyone else, but argued over the view of homosexual¬ ity as a “lifestyle.” “I don’t agree with the gay lifestyle,” Downey said. “But (homosexu- why me als) should be able to live with it in the realm of their own bed- blazing laughter As part of the Celebrity Showcase Committee’s Bust-A-Gut Comedy Series, Tommy Blaze performs in the Union.

This is not a lifestyle. This is not a choice I made.” In October, the year’s concert series began with a bang as country superstars Clint Black and Wynonna rolled into town on their “Black Wy Tour.” Wynonna opened the show in Barnhill Arena, playing such hits as “Tell Me Why,” “Only Love” and “No One Else On Earth.” She also performed several songs from her days as half of the dynamic country duo, The Following by matt helmer Wynonna’s departure from the stage, the man she said was “like the brother I never wanted” ap¬ peared dressed entirely in black.

Continuing the campaign of social aware¬ ness on campus, University Programs also _ M hosted a lecture in tell me continued from page 16 October by Sharon Lund, a woman with AIDS. Lund learned of her infection nine years ago, when she was prompted to be tested after seeing her ex-husband on a video of a CBS-TV special that she was using in her work within the AIDS community. “Within three minutes of putting the video in, Bill was on it saying he was dying of AIDS and I screamed, I threw something, I felt really faint and thought I was going to die then and there,” Lund said. Lund said she hoped that seeing a woman who looked healthy and had been infected for nine years would help students realize that it can happen to them. “Wake up!” she yelled during the lecture. “What does it take to make you realize that you are not invincible?” In December, University Programs brought the musical “It’s a Wonderful Life” to the Walton Arts Center. Based on the classic holiday movie that starred James Stewart and Donna Reed, the touring musical was gener¬ ally well-received by its audiences. “The show pushes the same emotional buttons as the movie,” Michael Schwartz, who played Clarence, said. “The music really sets the stage.” Rima Sara Szalay, who starred as Mary, said that a major difference between the movie and their production was that the music “raises the emotion of the show.” “People say that this is a ‘two-tissue’ show,” Szalay said. “Of course, there are still those who are die-hard movie fans.” 18 ♦ Student Life life lecture AIDS victim Sharon Lund shared her amazing story of betrayal with students at a lecture in mid-October.

In response to the widespread perception that the contest was still nothing more than an out-dated beauty pageant, the 1994 staff completed the overhaul that began in 1989, when men were first included in the Beauties contest. And, in September, eight students were selected as the first- ever Razorback Classics. Using an evaluation system based on the students’ campus leadership and involvement, academic achievement and communication skills, a panel of three judges from the campus community conducted interviews with 25 candidates before selecting four men and four women to receive the honor. The 1994 staff hoped that the new name would better represent the contest’s true meaning of recognizing and rewarding outstanding student contributions to the University.

No more waiting for hours. Telephone registration arrived just in time to let students sign up for spring semester classes using a touch-tone phone. Yet, the controversy surrounding the University’s prob¬ lem-plagued database, SAFARI (Student Admissions, Fi¬ nancial Aid, Records and Information), overshadowed the arrival of the advanced registration process as students and faculty voiced their concerns about the system. “There was a great deal of discontent among the colleges toward the University for imple¬ menting telephone registration,” assistant registrar Christie Spiegel said. “There were understand¬ able fears that the University was putting something on top of a bad system. The phone works, but will SAFARI work with the phone?” SAFARI had acquired its bad reputation after being imple¬ mented for use in the spring 1993 semester. The new computer sys¬ tem made several errors in stu¬ dent registrations and left teach¬ ers without rosters for the begin¬ ning of fall classes. “I registered for 15 hours,” senior Brenda Smith said, “but when I received my schedule the school had enrolled me for only nine hours.” Don Pederson, chairperson of the SAFARI response team, said there was no question that the system’s software was “seriously flawed.” “You’d have to look far and wide to find a university that can’t provide some sort of roster,” Pederson said. Still, despite SAFARI’S many problems, the University decided to go ahead with the implementation of telephone registration while it searched for solutions to the system’s flaws. For many students, the new registration process was a welcomed change from the out-dated methods previ¬ ously used. “The old way of registering was terrible because every¬ one was fighting over the same classes,” senior Marty Sutton said. “It wasn’t fair if a freshman got into a class and a sophomore didn’t.” Spiegel said that, for the most part, registration went smoothly, with the greatest problem lying in the telephone number the University gave for students to use. The phone num¬ ber, which began with a 582 pre¬ fix instead of575, confused many on-campus students who thought it was an off-campus number. “I tried for 45 minutes,” se¬ nior Melissa Prim said. “I had to call the registrar’s office to ask why I couldn’t get through to the computer.” Students needed only to dial the last four numbers from an on-campus phone to reach the system. “The University did not do a good job of letting students know about the phone number,” Spiegel said. Many students said that, since there were relatively few prob¬ lems with SAFARI, registering for classes wasn’t as difficult as they had expected. And, most students agreed that the new registration system was much simpler than the old method of filling out stacks of paperwork. “Although it took several tries before I could get into the computer, once I was in it only took five minutes,” sophomore Renee Doty said. “And the best part was I didn’t even have to leave my house.” by Hether Haddox For the first time, students used touch-tone phones to register for classes.

Walton Arena ♦ 53 In The Spotlight B UT WHAT I really want to do is direct...” This decla¬ ration is made by countless actors who make the leap from the stage to the director s chair, but for the 11 students who enrolled in Directing 1, the statement came to life in a series of one-act plays that took classroom instruction to a whole new level. “1 think this is one of the greatest things this college does,” drama professor Patricia Romanov said. “Through putting on these plays, I want my students to learn what good theatre is.” Romanov, who instructed the class during the fall semester, added that the natural culmina¬ tion of a directing class is to have the students direct their own plays for one final showcase of what they have learned. According to Romanov, the students were responsible for choosing the plays they would present, as long as the scripts met the requirements set by Romanov which included subject matter and degree of difficulty. Plays could run no longer than 35 min¬ utes and had to involve at least three characters. Senior Susannah Jarrell said she went through numerous scripts before she found the ap¬ propriate piece for the assign¬ ment. She decided on N.J. Warburton’s “Don’t Blame It on the Boots.” “I chose ' Boots’ because I liked the fact that it was a play within a play, and it was about an inexperienced director producing Hamlet ' Jarrell said. “I felt I could relate.” After choosing their scripts, the students then took their “baby” through the pre-production stages of casting and set design all the way to the final curtain call. Audi¬ tions were organized by the directors, and any student with either talent or a mere interest in drama was encour¬ aged to try out. Once the casts were compiled, the directors then took on the task of coordinating costumes, lights, set design, rehearsals, props and publicity for their shows ' performances. “The hardest part of putting the show together was coordinating everyone’s schedule to get in enough re¬ hearsal time,” Jarrell said. “The technical aspects such as set design and musical selection were my favorite parts of production.” Though the shows took much of the students’ time for a large part of the semester, most agreed that the experience gained was worth the dedication. Jarrell said that man y of the skills she devel¬ oped during production were ap¬ plicable in areas other than the theatre. “Through the process 1 learned how to manage actors and see a project through to its completion,” she said. “Most importantly, I learned how to deal with disappointment. It didn ' t always work out like I wanted it to.” The 11 directors were required to attend each other ' s perfor¬ mances and critique one another’s work. Many of the student actors said they, too, gained from the experience. Although the directors were also students, some actors said they often felt as though they were being instructed by “real direc¬ tors.” “Even though I had a really small role in the play I was in, I enjoyed it a lot,” freshman LaKay Murphy said. “My director, Kenn Johnson, was very professional with us. He didn’t seem like a student at all.” by Kyle Brazzel “I think this is one of the greatest things this college does.

The sounds of ”La Bamba” swirled around the colorful pinatas, blending with the spicy smells of salsa that greeted students as they stepped into the Arkansas Union and went south of the border for an evening of “Redhot and Redeyed” fun. It was the biggest all-night party of the year, and more than 1,300 students showed up to take advantage of University Programs’ annual evening of free food and entertain¬ ment. Sponsored by the Special Events Commit¬ tee, Redeye featured a variety of ways to help burn the midnight oil, including the SpiderWeb, a caricature artist, pinata bursting contests and Sumo Wrestling. In the Sumo Wrestling game, participants climbed into giant “fat suits” and proceeded to attack one another on a wrestling mat. Paul Senac, the owner of Sumo Wrestling, said this was about his fiftieth time to bring the contest into a college and he enjoyed watching it every time. “It’s definitely weird,” Senac said. “I had the best moves,” freshman Jeff Sexton said after defeating his friend Geoff Sidwell in a wrestling match. “You watch too much ‘Street Fighter,”’ Sidwell replied. Also performing at the event were ventrilo¬ quist Brad Cummings, hypnotist Tom Deluca and an urban pop band. “We had a really awesome band from Baton Rouge called Inn-O-Vation,” Amy Moore, a programs coordinator for Campus Activities Center said. “They had a pop, reggae, hip-hop kind of sound.” Redeye was held by razorback staff Jan. 29 from 8 p.m. to 2 a.m. “The party was really great,” junior Mike Soloman said. “As far as University Programs go, this was the best.” 58 ♦ Student Life big fun A popular attraction at Redeye, Sumo Wrestling gave students an outlet for their frustrations, while creating a hilarious spectacle.

As the last of the nibbles are taken on the ever-popular Union Catering cheesecake brownies, 32 freshmen Emerg¬ ing Leaders excitedly discover their new Mentors before the group joins hands for a round of ice-breakers, or “touchy-feely games, as the group liked to call them. “The human knot was my favorite ‘touchy-feely’ game, freshman Sally Stauffer, an Emerging Leader, said. “I really liked the teamwork that was in¬ volved in working our way out of the situation. The games were used by the directors of the Emerging Lead¬ ers program to show students the value in different leadership methods, such as teamwork and diversity. The program, which began in 1984, was designed to enhance the leadership skills of new freshmen and to help them discover their potential as future leaders. “The program acquaints new students with the campus lead¬ ers and the way the University is structured, Sylvia Scott, direc¬ tor of student development, said. “I think it opens doors for stu¬ dents to see how they can make a contribution to the University, and it gives them the confidence to run for leadership positions on campus. The Emerging Leaders were a selected group of fresh¬ men who were chosen through an application and inter¬ view process. The Mentors, usually upperclassmen with a high level of campus involvement, were also chosen through interviews and served as resources and guides to their Leaders. The program consisted of seven weekly sessions, at which the freshmen participants dealt with issues such as goal-setting, team-building and leadership management, plus the Mentor-Leader mixer in December and a the Way graduation ceremony in March. Scott, who served as the program ' s director, said that confidence was the main quality that Emerging Leaders gave its participants. “We try to focus on issues that will help the students individually and in working with others, she said. “Any leadership program we have can only enhance what stu¬ dents can give back to the University while they are here. Senior Darinda Sharp, who served as a Mentor in the program for three years, said the excitement and energy of the Leaders was refreshing for her. “The best part of this program is that you get to see the University through freshman eyes, Sharp said. “So many of the mentors are involved in so much, we are just ‘rush here and rush there. ' They are itching to be involved, and we are overex¬ tended. “Once you ' ve been in the Uni¬ versity system for a while, you forget what it was like your first year, when everything was new, she said. “(The Leaders) don ' t know how to work the system, while those of us who’ve been here a while know where to go to get what we need. Scott said that most of the program ' s participants run for leadership positions within a year of graduation. She said she liked watching the students grow dur¬ ing their years at the University. “I like the whole program, Scott said, “but the most touching to me is seeing those who’ve gone through the program come back and be Mentors. Stauffer said the program enhanced her communica¬ tion skills, but there were still things she had to work on. “1 was always late, she said. “1 would try to get there on time, but 1 couldn’t. It was terrible! When 1 would leave extra early, there would be a bike accident or something to make me late...I guess there ' s still room to grow.” by Matt Helmer — s . ill : ' t “We challenge the students to learn about the environment they are in now and how it might be different from where they were raised.

Blair ' s first batch of Lady ' Backs was characterized by a youth movement, including seven players that were either freshmen or sophomores. And, for the first time in Lady’Back history, the Lady ' Backs were led by a sophomore as one of the team ' s three captains — forward Kelly Johnson of Dardanelle. Appropriately, a true freshman, Kim Wilson, led the Lady ' Backs in scoring in their final game, an 84-62 loss to Georgia in the SEC tournament. Road Warriors. The Lady ' Backs began their season with the unpleasant task of traveling to play Kent State and then moving on to Hawaii for the Rainbow Wahine Classic. After Kent State handed the Lady ' Backs an 86-81 loss in the opener, Hawaii’s shores must have looked even nicer. The Lady ' Backs responded to the change in scenery with two excellent games, defeating Boise State and San Francisco to reach the championship game against host Hawaii.

The Lady ' Backs returned from Hawaii to defeat DePaul 80-68 for their first- ever win in Bud Walton Arena. Next, the Lady ' Backs hosted the 15th annual Dial Classic and became seven-time champions of the tourney by defeating New Orleans and Northwestern State. Stephanie Bloomer led the Lady’Backs to the title by tallying 22 points and 11 rebounds in the title game against Northwestern State.

For the season, the Lady ' Backs were a stellar 12-5 in non-conference games. But, in the talent-rich SEC, a superb non¬ conference record is a must because conference wins are hard to come by.

Freshman Kim Wilson again showed her extraordinary potential, tossing in 23 points. Senior Shea Henderson added 20 points, Kelly Johnson had 14 and Shannon Jones had 11. At season ' s end, the win looked even bigger after the Crimson Tide advanced to the NCAA Women ' s Final Four. Freshman Sensation. Kim Wilson had a remarkable freshman year for the Lady ' Backs, leading the squad in scoring 13 times and averaging 13.1 points a game in the regular season. She also averaged 4.6 rebounds and 1.8 assists. And, against Top 20 competition, the calm freshman elevated her game, averaging 17.8 points against nationally-ranked opponents. From the three- point line, she connected on a team-high 61 of 161, which was also a Lady ' Back record for shots made and attempted from the arc. Her hard work and success turned the heads of other SEC coaches, allowing her to become the first-ever Lady ' Back named to the SEC All- Freshman squad. Final Tally. Blairs first year at the helm of the Lady’Backs wasn’t too bad by SEC standards. The squad finished the year with a 15-14 mark following back-to-back losses to Oklahoma State and Georgia. And, for the five seniors, Tracy Eaton, Yolanda Dickson, Shea Henderson, Shannon Jones and Michelle Thacker, it was nice to go out as they came in — winners with a winning record. 64 ♦ Sports Leading the Way.

The S.O.S. (Save Our Swimmers) campaign swept campus, and for the first time, many students began to realize how competitive the UA swim squad was in regional and national competitions. Time to Qualify. At the biggest meet of the year, the Razorback divers turned in an exceptional performance, sweeping three events and qualifying three individuals for the national championship meet. Senior Scott McLeod, junior P.J. Murphy and sophomore Tom Caruso all qualified for nationals with their performances. The showing had diving coach Dale Schultz excited about nationals. “We’ve been training for the NCAA’s all season and now it’s time to put ourselves to the test.” McLeod won the platform title and Caruso won both the one and three-meter boards to capture individual honors at the meet. Murphy cruised to place third and fifth in both board events and qualify for nationals. All-American ANCHORS. Once again, the squad was supported by the talents of its All-American divers, P.J. Murphy and Tom Caruso. Murphy, in particular, led the team by claiming the 1994 SEC Platform title and pushing the others to follow his pursuit of an NCAA championship in his best events. Murphy rallied the team to pull together for the NCAA meet. And, his teammates listened. “We swept every dual meet that we were in this year,” Murphy said. “The team, when we go into a pool, we expect to do well. We expect to dominate.” Teammates Tom Caruso, Scott McLeod and Scott Gahan followed Murphy’s example by qualifying for the NCAA Zone Meet at the SEC championships. hog ♦ pen Martin Smith. The Razorback head coach was shocked by the dedication his squad, and the teams ' followers, showed in the face of the athletic department ' s threats to end the program. “The attitude of our team has been unbelievable. They are working harder than ever. P.J. Murphy. Murphy ' s SEC title performance in the platform diving competition was one of the more memorable performances i n Razorback swimming history. He recovered from a huge deficit in his final four dives to pass Rafael Alvarez, an Olympic diver. “To come back shows that P.J. has arrived as a world-class diver, ' ' Coach Dale Schultz said. Scott McLeod. The senior turned in a career-best performance at the NCAA Zone Meet to qualify for his first trip to nationals, diving 106 points better than his SEC Championship performance only weeks earlier. “Scott had the meet of his life,” Coach Dale Schultz said. “He got a win in the strongest zone in the country.” Men’s Swimming ♦ 71 Season’s Best.

The squad excelled in dual meets, compiling a 5-3 record. But, invitationals weren’t as friendly to the squad, collaring them with eight losses in 11 tries. But, early in the season, the squad was on fire. After losing their first dual to Kentucky, the Lady’Backs hit a four-game win streak. And they followed that hot streak with a huge win at the New Mexico Invitational, defeating the closest competitor by 137 points. SEC Championships. The Lady’Backs struggled to a ninth-place finish at the SEC championships, but the meet was recognized nationwide as the toughest conference meet around. “This was a tremendous meet,” Coach Martin Smith said afterward. “We would have liked better results, but I am happy with the way some of our girls competed.” Zoned In. Seniors Mindy Lauchle and Theresa Knight, as well as freshman Angie Pillers, all qualified for the NCAA Zone meet in Oklahoma City, Okla. Knight notched fifth in the platform and ninth in the one- meter. Knight’s performance had her just two spots behind a qualifying position. Lauchle tallied a 12th place finish on both the one and three meter boards. Nicola Atkinson. The senior star ended her brilliant career in disappointingfashion, placing 16th at the SEC meet in the 200 fly, but that should do nothing to downplay her past successes. She was, without question, the best female distance swimmer ever to swim at the UA and was an SEC champion in the 200 fly and 1,650free. Theresa Knight. The senior diver had an excellent season, leading the Lady’Backs in the SEC meet and the NCAA Zone Meet, and she will be sorely missed by the squad. “Theresa Knight dove very well,” diving coach Dale Schultz said. “I couldn’t be happier with the way she competes. ” Rhona Swain. The sophomore had an excellent year for the Lady’Backs, turning in the fifth- fastest Lady’Back time ever in the 100 breaststroke. She also had the team’s fastest times in the 100, the 200 breaststroke and the 200 individual medley, and she anchored the team’s win over Southern Illinois with two individual wins.

In April, the “Brady” controversies were brought to life once again when “The Real Live Brady Bunch” took to the stage at the Walton Arts Center.

It has been visited by more than four million people worldwide, and it has raised more than $1.3 million for the victims of AIDS. It’s called The AIDS Memorial Quilt, and during Na¬ tional AIDS Awareness Week in March, it made its first appearance in Northwest Arkansas during a display in the Union ballroom. u We wanted to use it as an educational tool for the community,” senior Chris Mays said. “We wanted to break down the stereotypes of who can get AIDS and HIV.” Mays, chairperson of Univer¬ sity Programs’ Fine Arts Com¬ mittee, the sponsors of the dis¬ play, said he and other commit¬ tee members began working to¬ ward bringing the Quilt to cam¬ pus in February, 1993. He said that one of the first things they did was contact The Names Project, the foundation that over¬ sees the Quilt. And, he said, work¬ ing out the details of the display with them was the most difficult task he tackled during planning. “The contract was the hardest part. They had so many rules about the Quilt, and the University had so many rules about this and that,” Mays said. “We eventually had to break a few rules.” The display contained 34 sections of the Quilt, consist¬ ing of more than 200 3 ' x 6 ' panels, many of them a memorial to people in the surrounding area who had died of AIDS-related causes. The entire Quilt consists of more than 26,000 panels, each made by lovers, friends and family members of AIDS victims. The Quilt’s visit to the University lasted three days, during which time nearly 2,500 people came to see the giant memorial, some from as far away as New Orleans. “Viewing the Quilt is an emotional and beautiful experience,” senior Julie Brown, president of University Programs, said. “It serves as a good learning tool.” The display began with an opening ceremony where the Quilt was unfolded as invited guests read the names of those depicted on the individual panels. After a brief moment of silence, the visitors who had gathered in a circle around the Quilt were allowed to view the colorful panels. Some of the nearly 300 people in attendance at the event had come out of curiosity; many others were looking for the name of a friend or loved one etched in the cloth memorial. Clare Collins, who traveled from Rogers to take a picture of her nephew’s panel, pointed to the brightly colored blue and white rectangle with the word “Joy” printed on it. “It’s from a Christmas card,” she said. “It says ‘joy’ because he was such a joy. The hardest part is to hear the name read. A flood of memories comes back all at once.” The history of the Quilt be¬ gins in 1987, when, propelled by the death and tragedy that confronted so many around the world, a man in San Francisco reacted to the AIDS epi¬ demic by spray painting the name of his friend, Marvin Feldman, onto a piece of cloth approximately the size of a grave. According to The Names Project, Cleve Jones was searching for a way to make people understand the over¬ whelming loss and frustration, especially within the gay and lesbian community, that was affecting him and his friends. From this one panel, the Quilt grew as friends, acquaintances and eventually thousands of complete (continued on page 104) by Hether Haddox Matt Helmer In one comer of the ballroom, visitors were asked to sign a message on the University’s signature panel.

By 1994, the Quilt included panels from all 50 U.S. states and 29 foreign countries. The display at the University was free to the public, but donation bins were set up around the ballroom to collect funds for both The Names Project and local AIDS services agencies. The University Health Center, Washington Regional Medical Center and the Washington County AIDS Task Force w cre beneficiaries of the display. Karen Waverling, vice president of the Task Force’s board of directors, presented alarming statistics during a presentation the week of the display. “There are 14 million people worldwide infected with the HIV virus,” she said. “Ar¬ kansas ranks 24th in the nation for people infected with the HIV virus, and the fight a gainst AIDS continues to be costly.” By the end of the week, many of the hundreds of volunteers who had helped staff the display, including Mays, began to feel the emotional effects of the Quilt’s presence. “At first, I didn’t really think it would affect me,” Mays said, “but at the end I was balling. Seeing the pieces come together — the volunteers and the panels — it surprised me that I got so upset.” Mays said he was pleased with the recep¬ tion the Quilt received from the campus and the community. He said he thought the dis¬ play “pulled the community in” and made them look at what AIDS is. “It made them see that this was just a small aspect of what the reality is,” he added. Mays also said he hoped that viewing the Quilt gave the visitors and the volunteers a new perspective on the disease and those who suffer from it. He said he wanted people to see a “different reality” from the one typically focused on by society. “There was such a diverse group of people there; it was so enlightening,” he said. “I hope the experience made them more fo¬ cused and inspired to continue the fight against AIDS.” Packing Up After the closing ceremony, volunteers stayed for hours to take down the display and ready it for its flight back to San Francisco.

Turing was the English scientist who broke the Enigma, the German military code in World War II, and in so doing disabled the Germans from accomplishing what seemed to be an inevitable defeat of the British. However, as Brown says, the play gives very few details of Turing ' s scientific work and is primarily about his isolated life as a homosexual in a British society that is intolerant of any deviation from what is considered normal. The play contains episodes from Turing ' s life spanning a 30 year period, although not chronologically. It examines Turing’s relationships with his mother, several lovers and his co-workers, including his partner in the Enigma project - a woman who is in love with him. Turing was played by Jamey McGaugh, a graduate student in drama. Other characters included Turing ' s mother, Sarah, played by Robin Aronson and Turing ' s co¬ worker, Pat Green, played by Holly Brown. Brown also played Juliet in the Shakespearean classic that was the second play of the season. In addition to directing the play, Gross also wrote the acting edition, did the voice over narration used at the beginning of the play, and wrote the original music used throughout the show. An acting edition was necessary because the original script was written during a time that five hour plays were the norm, Gross said. Contemporary audiences accustomed to two- hour movies have difficulty sitting through anything longer in the theater. The play was produced at Baum Walker Hall in the Walton Arts Center. “Romeo and Juliet” is set in Verona, Italy in the late Italian Renaissance. In the story, the two characters are separated because their families are involved in a bloody feud. Despite this, the young lovers have an unceasing passion for each other, and will stop at nothing to unite their love for one another. Romeo was played by Justin Fletcher, a senior and veteran of the UA stage. The elaborate set was the creation by Michael J. Riha, the University Theatre’s technical director. Consistent with past productions Gross has directed, the focus in Romeo and Juliet was the spectacle of the event: dramatic lights, costumes, sets and music, while the focus of Brown ' s “Breaking the Code” was the human element: actors and text. by Susannah Jarrell For the final production of the season, University Theatre presented the classic love story of Shakespeare ' s “Romeo and Juliet ” at the Walton Arts Center.

For others, it was nothing more than an academic nightmare. The culprit: senioritis. No one knows what causes senioritis, hut the symp¬ toms were the same: skipping class, fatigue, sadness and feelings of anxiety about the future. It ' s a disease that can make the simplest academic burden intolerable. tt I have senioritis — bad,” Tabitha Lewis, a senior majoring in public administra¬ tion and pre-law, said. “Senioritis is a whole lot of T don’t wants,’ ” she said. These included not wanting to read chapters, take tests or do any¬ thing else. Lewis said she fought the urge to slack off by forcing herself to study and attend every class. For Stephen Boyes, a senior political science major, the temp¬ tations to loosen up academi¬ cally were too strong to resist. He said he attended about as many classes as he missed (even though none started before 12:30 p.m.), and his studies were virtually nonexistent. Boyes said his parents instilled in him a strong belief in the value of education, but even with this educational ethic, senioritis still found a way to creep into his academic plans. Some seniors fought the onset of senioritis by working harder, but sometimes they couldn’t escape the inevitable feelings of sadness associated with being a departing senior. One senior said her sadness stemmed from leaving the University and the people close to her here. “Lve been here four years, in the same dorm room, and I ' ve never thought about not being here,” she said. “I wish 1 could take the things 1 do like about Fayetteville with me [such as] people, lots of feelings—like walking beside Old Main. “It ' s kind of sad. It will be hard not being part of something I ' ve been part of so long.” The stress and anxiety of the senior year was further compounded by obligations outside the classroom. Venus Hawkins, a senior education major, said she did not have time to think about senioritis. In addition to her class load, she student taught, which required her to get up at 6:30 a.m. She said the obligations alienated her from the campus and her friends. “1 (eel like a grown-up stand¬ ing around a bunch of little kids when 1 get home from teaching,” Hawkins said. “I went to a party... and one of my students was there. I couldn’t act like a college stu¬ dent in from of him. 1 had to stand around and watch, like a teacher.” Most of the seniors inter¬ viewed said they were more con¬ fident and better prepared for the outside world than they were when they were freshman. Some seniors described them¬ selves as more mature, having a higher self-esteem and being far less anxious. “1 worried then about whether 1 would do well in college,” one senior said. “Maybe I ' d find out my high school wasn ' t good or 1 hadn’t learned enough or I might be way behind and wouldn ' t do as well as 1 did in high school. 1 pushed myself hard academically.” As the semester ended, senior thoughts turned to resumes, interviews and careers as the soon-to-be college graduates prepared to enter the “real world.” Senioritis didn ' t make the work easier, but some se¬ niors, like Hawkins, were trying to be optimistic about the outside world. “I’ll be okay,” she said. by Robert A. Heyman Senioritis struck graduating seniors hard , sticking with them throughout finals and even showing up at graduation. Messages proclaiming the joy of those who were ending their undergraduate careers were a common sight at commencement. ♦ Wichser Photo seniors fight academic plague Senioritis ♦ 121 hog ♦ pen Baseball: Rough start dissapoints DeBriyn Norm DeBriyn.

The baseball squad didn’t quite begin the season in the midst of a hot streak. In fact, they started in exactly A the reverse, losing five straight. But, hard work and some big bats reversed the losing trend. The Hogs’ seventh game of the season, a 15-6 crushing of Southwest Baptist, may have been a turning point in the season. The Hogs pounded out 15 hits in the win, and outfielder Chris Clark went an amazing 5-for-5. “We’re a lot more loose as a team and I’m a lot more loose as an individual. This game gave confidence for the team and it gave confidence in me,” Clark said after the game. A Trifle Upset, in a three-game series against the Kansas State Wildcats in early March, the Razorbacks demonstrated the roller-coaster performance they would exhibit for the remainder of the season. In the series opener on Friday, they pounded KSU 22- 4. On Saturday, the team floundered to an 11-10 loss. Then on Sunday, they rebounded to play an excellent game and win, 4-1. Though the Hogs scored 10 runs in the one loss, they didn’t score many points with Coach Norm DeBriyn. “This was the worst, the ugliest game that I’ve ever seen us play in my 25 years at Arkansas,” DeBriyn said. His words obviously made an impact — the team won seven games in the next 10 days. Opposites Attract. After the dismal losing streak early in the season, the Hogs responded with a streak of a different breed, a seven-game winning tear that moved their record to a solid 10-6 before they lost to nationally-ranked Southern Mississippi. Many of the wins came as part of a 19-game homestand, one of the longest in recent years for the diamond Hogs. But even the winning streak hadn’t calmed DeBriyn down from his disappointment from earlier in the season. “These are the kind of games that you’ve got to win ” DeBriyn said. “It’s not the mark of being a good team.” TCU 3- 7,4-21,4-6 Kansas 3-5,2-4,5-3 Southwest Baptist 15-6 Kansas St. 22-4,10-11,4-1 Missouri Southern 10-3 Southeast Oklahoma St. 13-6 Centenary 11-5,13-1 Southern Mississippi 4- 2,16-9,8-9 Oklahoma St. 10-5,13-9 Memphis St. 7-1,6-3 UNLV 3-9,4-7,7-8 122 ♦ Sports - — 1 - Just Try It.

During a crucial stretch of the season, when the Hogs still had a chance of finishing in a tie for second in the SEC Western Division, a bench-clearing brawl with the Alabama Crimson Tide in Fayetteville sent shock waves through the SEC. Enough shock waves, in fact, that SEC Commissioner Roy Kramer suspended 12 players from the two teams. Arkansas outfielder Bob Hughes, leftfielder Kyle Harris, pitcher Scott Brocail, infielder Jason Jameson, infieider Kenderick Moore and shortstop Jeff Parsons were all suspended for one game following the brawl, and the Hogs dropped their next game to Mississippi State. The bright spot was that the Hogs went on to win the brawl- interrupted contest with Alabama. Senior Scott Cunningham threw a complete game and won 7-3, his third complete game of the season. Tigers Add Finishing Touches. Yet again, the Hogs ended their season against the dominating Louisiana State University Tigers. LSU, the defending national champions, knocked the Hogs out of the SEC tournament with a 6-4 victory on May 20. The Hogs ended their rough and tumble season at 30-27 overall and 13-13 in conference.

Golf ♦ 127 Time To W HEN THE CLOCK strikes midnight at the International House of Pancakes, students are just beginning to file in. Solemn faced and tired-eyed, most are preparing to study for a few hours and to drink more than a few cups of strong, hot coffee. They’re sporting heavy backpacks and comfortable clothes. They arrive in packs, and they spend as much time shooting the breeze as they do studying. The pancake house — better known simply as IHOP — is fa¬ mous for its “Never-emp ty cof¬ fee pot” that never fails to draw students who are doing a little last-minute cramming during fi¬ nals week. At 12 a.m. in a restaurant known for serving breakfast 24 hours, observers might have ex¬ pected to overhear conversations about 18-wheeler engines. But at IHOP, snipets of conversations sounded more like one would expect to hear at Mullins Library. “Well, I divided 1,230 by 2x squared and we got the same answer,” one student said with a pained look on her face. In the booth across from her, students were outlining the major themes in Homer’s Odyssey. Kacy Parham and Scott Hogan had their heads bowed over their books, studying intently, sometimes taking breaks to talk and laugh or discuss a particularly trouble¬ some differential equations problem. Both juniors, they studied together at IHOP for every “Diff. E.” test during spring semester. Parham said the noise of fry cooks and other students chatting didn’t bother him at all. “I can’t study in complete quiet,” Parham said. Hogan agreed. He said it was easier to tune out the ‘Cram’ clanging of pans and the sound of hash browns being flipped than, say, a television or a roommate. “It’s kind of loud here, but it’s nothing I have to be concerned about,” Hogan said. Darinda Sharp, a senior, said she liked to study at IHOP because it was open 24 hours and it was easier to keep herself awake in a roomful of noise. “When you go to IHOP, your senses are bombarded. There’s stuff going on all the time,” Sharp said. “1 can’t study in quiet because my mind will wander. “If there’s something I know I’m going to have to get done, and 1 know I’ll have to stay up late, I’ll go somewhere where there’s a lot going on that’ll make me get it done,” she said. “Other¬ wise I’ll fall asleep.” So many students packed the restaurant during finals that sometimes the management put a time limit on how long tables could be occupied — usually about 45 minutes. There was a sympathetic force running through the late-night crowd. It was nearing the end of finals week and everyone was in the same situation — too much information to digest, too little time. Even the waitresses were sympathetic to the students’ situations, asking them how the studying was going and if they needed a bit more coffee to help their brains function a little better. Yet, despite the incessant clanging of dishes, the brief interruptions for coffee refills and pancake deliveries and the rumblings of soft chatter, the students were somehow able to stay focused, digesting as much of the fleeting semester’s notes as possible. by Laura King Most students who studied at IHOP said they liked the atmosphere of the restaurant and that the noise was not usually distracting.

Elders spoke at the 120th commencement exercises held in Bud Walton Arena May 14, touching on several of the controversial topics for which her outspoken views have been both heralded and scorned throughout the nation. “You’re going to find there are many of our bright young people who will be unable to soar with the eagles,” Elders said, citing several social and behavioral set¬ backs. “Many have been involved in things like drugs and alcohol, homicide, suicide and, yes, teen¬ age pregnancy.” Elders spoke of her efforts to improve the quality of life for America’s youth stating that many of today’s youth “have not been good to themselves.” The choice of Elders as key¬ note speaker attracted a great deal of controversy prior to the ceremony, but there was no un¬ usual pomp and circumstance with only two protesters showing up outside the arena. “Nothing is wrong with failure unless you don’t learn something from it,” said Elders. Her own inspirational story of struggling provided great insight to her fearless efforts and perseverance to succeed. She encouraged the graduates to not forget where they came from and to go out into world and take a few chances. She also advised them to focus their lives on their education and the education of others, to know who they are and where they are going, to set goals and to know where they came from. “I think people got tired of listening to me, but I kept on yelling,” Elders stated. “You have to dance with the band, you can’t qu it when you get tired. You have to wait until the band gets tired.” And she said that she didn’t mind being a “lightning rod” as long as she knew that she had a “lot of thunder out there” behind her. Citing President Bill Clinton as an example of inspiration, Elders said that setting out to accomplish any goal is going to be filled with stress, but “all you have to do is look at the load the president has taken on despite all the pressures he’s got out there and he is still fighting and getting things done.” Elders provided the more than 2,200 graduates with a retrospect of world events which occurred during their time at the University: the fall of the Berlin Wall, the break-up of the Soviet Union, the Persian Gulf War and even the Razorbacks’ NCAA Championship and the elevation of Bill Clinton from governor to president. Elders, a University alumna, received a standing ova¬ tion and was awarded an honor¬ ary doctor of laws. The individual college cer¬ emonies brought home several famous University alumni and Arkansas natives: Dallas Cow¬ boys’ owner Jerry Jones spoke at the College of Business Adminis- tration, U.S. Senator Dale Bumpers at the College of Agri¬ culture and Home Economics, David R.

Other speakers included Bruce Babbitt, U.S. Secretary of the Interior, who spoke at the law school, and Dame Anne Warburton, president of Lucy Cavendish College of Cambridge University, who spoke at the Fulbright College of Arts and Sciences. Poised for the future, the new graduates set out with Elders’ advice firmly in hand: “What you must do as graduates is to try to make sure that more of our society soars with the eagles rather than crawls with the snakes.” by Liz Vanzant “What you must do as graduates is to try to make sure that more of our society soars with the eagles rather than crawls with the snakes. ” ♦ Joycelyn Elders, U.S. Surgeon General surgeon general says be ready Graduation ♦ 131 Ventriloquist Brad Cummings entertained his audiences with the use of several different “dummies” during his shows at Redeye, the annual all-night party in the Union.

Home of the SEARS Collegiate Champions NCAA Championship Advertising ♦ 277 1994 NCAA Basketball Track National As the Editor Babbles W ell, here we are. The end. The grand finale. The curtain call. El Finito. I must say that it has been one hell of a year here at 747 West Dickson. From a later-than- Christmas(literally)-absolutely-from-hell 1993 book to an oh-my-god-will-this-ever-end summer production schedule, the story behind the 1994 Razorback has certainly been the most unforget¬ table yearbook experience I have ever had. There were times when I thought I was going insane (if 1 wasn’t there already), but through it all I would have to say that I wouldn’t trade this experience for anything in the world (except, of course, the chance to meet Madonna). I guess now is the time where I have the oppor¬ tunity to say, “It has been great.” But, I think it is always easy to say that when the ball game is over, yet when you really think about it, it isn’t the entire truth. 1 won’t bore you with the details, but I will tell you that it hasn’t been easy (though no one said it would be). Anyway, I would like to thank those members of the staff who were dedicated enough to finish at least something before they left. And, to those who helped me through the summer (though most of you were not even on staff), 1 cannot express my appreciation enough. First and foremost, I have to say that Gary Lundgren is a yearbook god. There is not enough room for me to even begin to express my gratitude for everything he has given me. From my very first day as a Razorback staff member (well, actually I began as the copy editor), Gary has taught me more about this business than I could have dreamed. There is no way I could ever have begun this book, let alone finished it, without his guidance and support (and his ever-popular snippy remarks). And, though he spent the summer roaming the world (it was “Summer Tour ’94,” for more infor¬ mation on booking dates for 1995, call 1-800- BOOK-HIM), and was, for the most part, com¬ pletely out of touch with the production of this book, he was nonetheless the greatest adviser one could hope for (I would like to thank all of Gary ' s yearbook nerd friends for keeping him busy all summer and out of my way). And, he did provide invaluable advice when he was needed (of course, if I disagreed I just ignored his ranting), so I guess he did learn a few things in Adviser School. In other things, I must mention to all who care that there were others on staff that kept me on the brink of a nervous breakdown all year. There was the sports editor whose paychecks would have been better used to buy new comput¬ ers. And there were others whose purpose on staff Top 10 Quotes Overheard at (or near) Student Publications 10. “Is the yearbook finished, yet?” (which yearbook would that be?) 9. “Kiss me! Kiss me!” (leave it to Julie to liven the party) 8. “Yes, indeed. ” (a late¬ comer to the quote box, but nonetheless effective and memorable) 7. “Let’s compare legs.” (thank you Darinda and Hether for keeping this to yourselves) 6. “ C’mon, man. Let’s go to Maxine’s.” (Simon always knows how to have fun, doesn’t he?) 5. “There’s no need to get snippy. ” (this applies to all) 4. “I am in favor of a Media Feel...” (it’s good to know we have your support, Chuck) 3. “Well, that yearbook’s not out yet. They’re still not finished with it, but it wasn’t their fault. See, the editor moved to Dallas, and they had to finish it...” (Meredith - ever the helpful one - especially with irate yearbook customers) 2. “Thank you for sharing. ” (the king of snippy remarks from the king of snippy) 1. “I have this friend who’s the Theta adviser at Syracuse...” (always a helpful comment to begin conversation while out on a date) I have yet to figure out. But then there were the fun ones - the ones who I couldn’t have made it without (for a list, see the thank you on the opposite page). Anyway, moving along, 1 guess 1 should say a few words about the Media Fee (or Media Feel, depending on your mood). But, to be honest, I think I’ve said all I have to say except that the students really shot themselves in the foot by defeating it (thanks, Wendy, for leading the University’s student media to nowhere). Anyway, there is so much of this year in student publications that remains to be captured, and since I’m running out of space (and, I haven’t written my thank you) I wanted to put these little moments into a collection (just reviewing and recapping)- Here we go... There was the famous cookout at Agri Park (okay, let me just say that one is not given a handbook on planning cookouts when one is awarded this job, and I think that it is perfectly natural for one to assume that if you order food, then they automatically reserve the little shelter for you) • numerous Attitude Adjustments (where revelations such as Gena’s nickname, “Wiener, were popular, as was the game of making our server card the Traveler ad staff) • the pizza party where the discussion of Pei-Pu and Du-Du dominated the table until Barbara had to speak of things she shouldn’t (and, thus, the name Maverick has stuck with me since) • late nights at Taco Hell where Sally saved me from insanity with her humor and a cigarette • the trip to Dallas: the near-mugging, brain noises (Get the ear! Get the Ear!), the Best- of-Show award (I’m sure everyone enjoyed my queen wave as I descended into the lobby, and I was not strutting down the aisle), and of course, Rebatown (Laura, Regina and Greg, I do apolo¬ gize if I gave you whiplash, but you must under¬ stand...) • my first Carmex moment • “Key-i-o-w- a.” (that’s for you, Hether) • many, many phone calls to Douglas • the trip to Awful Waffle where Gary refused to eat his cold waffle when the waitress finally brought syrup (meanwhile, Sally and I laughed while observing that we three were the only ones there without boots on) • the Student Publications Christmas party where Santa got a bit too tipsy and sexual harassment was free to every¬ one • my Christmas vacation where I met and spent the weekend (well, almost) with Faith Ford (she liked my sweater, she didn’t use Carmex, 1 bought her a beer, she bought me a beer, we talked, it was like butt-ah!) • the trip to Charlotte to watch that damn book get printed (my first on an air¬ plane, “How do you get these seats to go back?” I MORE ON NEXT PAGE ... 278 ♦ Editor’s Note ♦ Razorback Staff ♦ Front: jay Berksza, Steven Murphy (advertising director), Marie Wichser (photo editor), Matt Helmer (editor), Joseph Diaz Back: Steve Barry, Hether Haddox, Jana Mathews, Sally Stauffer, Gary Lundgren (adviser) Editor’s Thank You Gary Lundgren. Working with you over the past two years has been the greatest learning experience for me. No matter what, you never cease to amaze me with what you can accomplish. Thank you for your advice, guidance and support, and most of all, thank you for being my friend, (just don’t forget who the real boss is). Darinda Sharp. There is no way for me to begin to express how much you mean to me. Thank you for all you’ve taught me. You are quite possibly the most remarkable person I have ever known. (And, since you watched “Truth or Dare,” I promise I won’t tell everyone that you helped me with this book) Love You! Douglas Scott. You are a Yearbook Legend! Thank you so much for everything you taught me and for your guidance throughout the year. I couldn’t have made it without the knowledge that you’ve done this twice (and are now somewhat normal). And, congratulations! I’m sure Tyler is a yearbook editor to-be! Marie Wichser. No one does photos like the Queen of Photos! You have been the absolute best photo editor I could have asked for. From keeping this campus covered to keeping me sane, you have been a God-send. Thank you for everything; I’m looking forward to another great year (we make a super team!). Kim Tracey. Thank you for taking me in and showing me the ropes. I think I turned out pretty good, don’t you? Thanks; you taught me more than you’ll ever know. Congratulations on your successes so far; here’s to many more! Laura King. Yon are without a doubt one of the best friends I have or ever will have. For your help on this book, I can only say a feeble thank you. Your dedication to me is overwhelming. I can’t begin to thank you for your friendship, just know how important it is to me. I also want to say thanks to you and Kyle for reminding me to live a little and for letting me watch “Murphy.” You guys are too much! Love you! Susannah Jarrell. Thanks for keeping me alive this summer. You are an incredible person, and your friendship keeps me going. Thanks for your help with this book. Love Ya! Barbara Price. You handled the business end of this beast like an old pro. Thank you for your hard work and dedication. Hugs Kisses! Liz Vanzant. Thanks for your tremendous amount of help this summer. I could never have survived this nightmare without you here. Celisa Erin. You two are the joys of my life. No one could ask for better sisters, and I am so very proud of you both. I will always love you. Greg Sykes. Thanks for all your help with the sports section. I wish you all the best with your monster: The Traveler. The staff. Sally - for keeping my humor dlivr, Hether - for your hard work and friendship; Jana - for your tremendous help and dedication; Kyle - for hanging in there; and everyone on staff for their determination to do a good job with this beast. And Others. My family for your encouragement and support; The Arkansas Traveler staff; the Board of Publications; Dr. Lyle Gohn; Joe Euculano; Patsy Watkins; everyone at Campus Activities and University Programs for your incredible support (you’re the best!); Jill Geer for her unbelievable help; Jim Bailey and Don House for great photos; Tim Walker for a fantastic cover; Frank Myers and Carol Dukclow; Mihc Chritton; the White House; and my instructors for your patience. here ' s the rest ... would like to add, however, that I was correct aboui flying over Atlanta while Mr. Frequent Flyer Miles thought it was Birmingham!), Gary and l took over Franks office, then started running amuck throughout the plant, trying to make them speed up (of course, the highlight of the trip for Gary was a stop by Krispy Kreme Donuts) • more Carmex • the Media Fee(l) campaign where a certain crazed German professor came storming into the office, and a psycho election commis¬ sioner went about campus measuring our sign posts • my first trip to Rons where Julie kept us all entertained after two shots of Tequila (also, l would like to say thanks to Joanna for making me sleep on Puff as I talked of fish frys) • Carmex applications • Smash and Crash ’94 (the 335 N. Gregg Girls rule!) • “Let’s compare legs” (I’m glad you all found this humorous) • my post-gradua¬ tion trip to St. Louis (1 thought Gary would have a stroke, though days later the summer tour began, and he was scarcely seen for months) • more Carmex • my extra-day stay in Louisiana (you would have thought 1 killed someone, or at least 1 could have been suspected of slaying Ron and Nicole, Susannah s “parrots”) • talking with Dou¬ glas again • Gary’s trip to Paris (thugs in Europe now have his Calendar Book), oh, and thanks, Gary, for the use of your home for our Fourth of July cookout and swimming party (Bowl Flead, Bowl Head, Bowl Head), i still have your bowl. • the arrival of “The Lion King” soundtrack (1 was so excited 1 nearly peed on myself!) • trips to S onic for cherry limeades • the arrival of “The Lion King” • more Carmex moments ‘dinner upon dinner at the Pampered Palate (smoking? in the club?) • and then, there were the highlights of my summer in yearbook hell: a workshop in St. Louis gave me a much-needed break from the Mac (we all know how I love workshops - especially in cities with a Structure); snippy messages from Gary; mini-road trips with Susannah (usually to eat, though once we were chased to the airport by psychopaths in an Oldsmobile); spending an hour or so at KUAF just chatting away with Kyle (it amazes me that he can work while I’m babbling) ; the never-ending Simon and Julie saga (my, what a hot little summer development there); and leaving desperate mes¬ sages on Laura and Kyle ' s machine (where are you?!?). And, of course, too many late nights (or early mornings) at the office. There you have it - the year in review. I hope that everyone likes the book. It’s different, but l think it’s one of our best (if not our best!). Enjoy, take care, be good, and I’ll see you all next year. I’m not sure why, but I’m going to do this thing again. Love you all! Matt (Maverick) Helmer Editor Editor’s Note Thank You ♦ 279 Students flocked to the Union Mall during warm weather to soak up the sun and relax after class. While some students took advantage of the cozy sunshine to catch up on their reading , others made time for fun and games. Starting a game of hackey sack was always a good way to attract a crowd , and a game could be found just about anywhere on campus when the long-awaited spring months finally arrived. f i 4
