To help new students feel welcome and become integral members of the campus community, the New Student Programs Office sponsored ten orientation sessions during the summer prior to the students’ arrival at the University for fill semester classes. During the two-day sessions, students were given tours of the campus, introduced to various aspects of University life and given the opportunity to meet with their respective college deans and register for classes. From the first ‘woooo pig’ at Orientation to the final cry of Hog-calling _ . at the Freshman Pep Rally, the road back to school is packed with action I am very excited and enthusiastic about being a student at the UA, and I wanted to get them excited about coming to the UA. The best part about being a leader, though, was having the people remember me and feel like they could turn to me with questions or problems even after the year started. ” DEJAN KrunIC, sophomore, Orientation Leader I t was a wonderful experience. I made friends that I kept up with throughout the year. During the spring semester, one girl in my group came up to me and thanked me for being a part of her Orientation. Orientation helped her to open up, and she became a really successful student. ” ALLISON WALKER, junior, Orientation Leader continued on page 9 BACK TO SCHOOL call of the wild In a display of Razorback pride, several freshmen Greek pledges covered themselves in paint and set out for the Freshman Pep Rally during Welcome Week.

[Wichser photo] 8 BACK TO SCHOOL C haos as usual prevailed as students prepared to transform dorm rooms into their own five-month homes. Elevators and hallways were bursting at the seams with parents and siblings hauling treasured stuffed animals, entire wardrobes and crisp sets of matching linens and bath towels for on-campus residents, but that surge lasted only a couple of days. Rooms, on the other hand, were too few to accommodate the many students registered to live in the residence halls. Increased enrollment numbers and 150 no-show residence hall contract holders forced Residence Life and Dining Services to open Fulbright and Reid halls, both of which were closed in anticipation of renovation, to temporarily house the overflow of on-campus residents. w e have tried to make it as comfortable as possible for the students waiting at Fulbright. I heard of no problems or complaints from the students staying there. ” Jim CoNNEELY, director of RL DS again continued M ore than 600 students “rushed” into the school yearjoining fraternities and sororities in a selection process marked by “cooperation and creativity.” Approximately 400 students participated in sorority Rush. Lisy Brown, president of the Panhellenic Council, said the number of women increased by nearly 80 women from 1993.This years quota from each house, the maximum number of pledges they could accept, was set at 45. ® For the fraternities, the total number of rushees was down slightly from last year. Less than 250 men rushed, and the quota per house was set at 36. ’ e ' re really excited about our guys. They ' ve got some really good grades and are really sharp guys. In general, I think everyone did really well as far as the quality of guys coming through.” JAY SAENZ, president, Sigma Chi fraternity ith the number of girls coming through, we needed help from our alumni. Every house needed some help, and they got it. I think it ' s great that we have such a strong alumni system. ” Aamie WINDSOR, co-chairperson of sorority Rush E ven though the numbers weren ' t as high as we wanted them to be, all the fraternities participating felt that the young men who went through Rush were all quality men.

[Roberts photo] T o welcome students back to school in a fun and informative way, the Campus Activities Center co-sponsored a series of social and educational events called Welcome Week ’94. Amy Moore, a graduate assistant in Campus Activities, said the participating groups hoped to get students interested and involved in their respective events throughout the school year by providing a fun introduction. Students enjoyed a wide range of events, including The Healthwise Hunt, sponsored by the Health Center. Other activities included the performance of comedian Steve White, appearing as part of the Bust-a-Gut Comedy Series; a coffeehouse at Brough Coffee Shop; a “Welcome Back” dance; a pep rally for the Razorback football team; a cookout and an event called Playfair — a series of icebreaker games to introduce students to each other. Approximately 600 students attended the pep rally; 2,000 were estimated to have attended the Merchants’ Fair, another of the weeks major events. I had a really good time at the coffeehouse. The atmosphere was relaxed, the entertain¬ ment was great. . . and all alcohol-free. It was fun. Scott McCarty, graduate student BACK TO SCHOO The Razorback Band launches the search for a new practice field after officials request silence during football practices. They find one — 20 minutes away On Played After 18 years of practicing on the parking lot between the baseball stadium and the grass football practice field, the Razorback Marching Band was declared a distraction and asked to move. “The athletic department didn’t say,‘Get off campus.’A request was made by [Head Coach] Danny Ford and [Athletic Director] Frank Broyles that the band and football team not practice adjacent to each other,” Donita Hubbard, athletic department spokesperson, said. “[The football team and coaches] can’t hear each other.” The band attempted to construct a new drill field on the new parking lot south of Carlson Terrace, but due to expenses estimated near $50,000, the idea was abandoned. Since no other place found was appropriate for their needs or cost effective, the band was forced to commute an average of 20 minutes daily, four days a week, to and from the new drill field constructed near Baldwin Organ Company. This was the first time the band had ever been asked to move in University history, and Band Director W. Dale Warren had mixed emotions about the conflict. He said he believes the fans deserve a successful football team and stressed the fact that band members did everything possible to make the transition easy. “We need to make the public know how great [the band members] attitudes have been,” Warren said. “I don’t know of any better supporters of the football team than our band students.” Ford did not have much to say about the conflict except that the band could practice on their field when the football team was not there. “It’s a conflict of time more than anything else,” Ford said. “I just thought it was ridiculous,” band member Lisa DeLozier, a senior, said. “Band is a class offered by the University, and it wasn’t even held on campus. “I really didn’t like it because of Danny Ford,” she said. “[The band] never really bothered me personally,” J.J. Meadors, a junior Razorback football player, said. “I never felt it made a difference. I guess Danny Ford and Frank Broyles know what is best for the team.” By Mary Huffman BAND LEAVES CAMPUS This is how we do it. Marching Band member Sean Campbell displays the results of the band’s long hours of practice at a game in Razorback Stadium. The band was forced to relocate its practices following a request from the Athletic Department. Foootball player Mark Smith said the band rehearsals never bothered him personally. “When I’m out there practicing, I don’t really pay attention to what is going on around me. I’m out there to play football.” [Armitage photo] Practicing the art. Members of the Razorback Band Majorettes practice their routine in preparation for the home game against Alabama.

[Wichser photo J 14 FALL LEADERSHIP CONFERENCE from the Campfire Expecting a weekend full of the old ‘qualities “I hope they don’t make me do that‘tell-us-your-name-and-a-little-bit-about- yourself’ thing. I hate that,” I thought to myself, pondering the prospects of the first annual Fall Leadership Conference. Boy, was I in for the mother of all icebreaker-ramas. I had agreed to represent The ArkansasTraveler at the conference, thinking it would be a good way to start off the year: a little fun in the sun at Lake Fort Smith —some time away from the grind before it became a grind. What I got was a pair of pantyhose tied around my waist with a grapefruit hung in the toe in a perverse version of croquet; a new appreciation for the sport of skinny- dipping, once I saw who and how many people confessed to it in a revealing adaptation of tag; and a greater understanding of an administrator’s sensitive side, unveiled in a campfire tale of fond farewells andTINKling BELLS. In the beginning, when participants arrived to register, they took their name tags, grabbed a slice of free pizza and migrated toward their familiars. So, too, did they flock together on the Razorback Transit buses, but as the clumsy vehicles rumbled down Hwy 71, motion sickness brought everyone together. However, the distraction of sharing personal profiles which asked about “most embarrassing moments,” “least favorite foods,” and “favorite pastimes” undoubtedly played a large role in making former strangers new acquaintances. I had expected the conference to center around campus-specific issues; I thought we would toss around the usual hot potatoes: student parking, student fees, faculty evalua¬ tions, etc., etc., etc. And indeed, there was a free-for-all discussion with Chancellor Dan Ferritor, during which students asked questions and offered opinions about such matters. The primary objective of the gathering, however, seems to have been the removal of us all from our respective contexts and placement in one setting to deal with common issues. The amazing thing to watch, though, was the range of perspectives brought to the table. By the conference’s end, we had woven ourselves into a strong network, connected by the common bonds of wearing pantyhose around our waists and having a vested interest in each other as keepers of the future, both individual and shared. We were able to see humor in our differences (I still can’t believe Sohail doesn’t like lasagna),yet we were able to recognize in all seriousness the value of those differences in addressing similar concerns.

Razorbacks’ Law 345: Have the parade anyway. For the first time in four years, Homecoming Weekend featured a parade down Dickson Street, and predictably, Mother Nature decided to toy with the festivities. Alumni and students, however, persevered and were rewarded with periodic sunshine by kickoff of the Hogs’ game against Ole Miss. The return of the parade was one of several special activities to welcome back alumni and mark the centennial anniversary of the Razorback football tradition. Other events during Homecoming Week included the showing of the movie “Above the Rim” by the Black Students Association. In addition, the group sponsored numerous events including a reception for the Homecoming Court, a talent show and Spirit Day, during which students were encouraged to wear Razorback red to show their support for the Hogs. BSA was not alone in its efforts to make Homecoming ’94 fun and fulfilling.The Residents’ Interhall Congress held a Casino Night party in Brough Commons. Tamika McGill was chosen as the 1994 Homecoming Queen. Her court included Tamara Abshier, Shelli Barnette, Rebecca Holloway and Amy Martin. And, the Hogs defeated the Rebels, 31-7. L ast year there was hardly anything done and people complained that the BSA didn V do anything for Homecoming, so this year we gave them so much to do that they can ' t complain. ” SHAWN Lawson, senior, Black Students Association president I t ' s neat for me to say that I participated in the tradition, hut what got to me the most was seeing Ann McGill, the oldest living Homecoming Queen, return for the halftime ceremony.

Throughout high school, the education major had been chosen as a maid on every homecoming court for both basketball and football, but she was never crowned a homecoming queen. On Homecoming Day 1994, that all changed. McGill represented her sorority Delta Sigma Theta in the interview process for the Homecoming Court. McGill estimated the number of women considered by the football team at around 60. They introduced them¬ selves and gave a brief speech, and then the Hogs cast their votes for the members of the Court. McGill and the others were told the results would be posted, but she discov¬ ered the good news from a friend and a football player who both congratulated her the next morning during classes. “Then I went to see for myself, just to make sure,” McGill said. Adding that she was very excited, McGill admitted she didn’t really believe her day as a queen was at hand until she was crowned by Gov. Jim Guy Tucker. McGill said she received many gifts, flowers and balloons from well-wishers at home and at school. Her younger brother, older sister, and several aunts and cousins shared the day with her and her mother, who “cried tears of joy.” The queen’s day began with the Homecoming parade down Dickson Street — the first in four years — then she and the other members of the court were treated to lunch at the Broyles Complex. Later she was introduced to alumni, including former Homecoming Queens, the oldest of whom shared the same last name. McGill rode around Razorback Stadium in the pregame parade of cars, and then she was crowned — her favorite memory of her reign as Homecoming Queen. “My day went real well,” she said. a time to cheer As 1994 Homecoming Queen Tamika McGill is presented to the more than 50,000 Ians in the packed Razorback Stadium, Associated Student Government President Chuck Welch applauds.

Living quarters defined the self, and indeed the budget, as furnish¬ ings ranged from stuff even the thrift store wouldn’t take to the latest floral prints by Laura Ashley. Wherever they lived — residence hall, Greek house, apartment complex or even Mom and Dad s pad — students sought to define themselves as they achieved a kind of independence of which they only dreamed in adolescence. Choosing from the more than 10 residence halls on campus, students found homes ranging from aging towers of cinderblocks and creaking elevators to newly-renovated halls with plush lobbies and lounges. The mansion-like houses framing the campus with historical and structural beauty was the home of the Greek community. With more than 20 residences, Greek houses offered a wealth of historical views, including the Chi Omega house which was placed this year on the National Register of Historic Places. The greatest variety of all living quarters was seen perhaps in the off-campus dwellings of students. From the quirky, old apartments tucked in the hollows west of the Square to the cookie-cutter, pastel duplexes popping up out of the ground like so many flowers after a spring rain, the homes of off-campus students offered many options, comfortable and, well, otherwise. Rent ranged from $300 to $800, and you got what you paid for. As rent inevitably climbed, there were a lucky few whose college address also happened to be their permanent address. Rent was usually non-existent, and the food by comparison was probably a godsend. I t ' s harder to meet people living in an apartment, and Fayetteville is different from Conway, where I did my undergraduate work. However, because of my age I ivonldn’t want to live on campus.

(Rinehart photo] 30 TATTOOS Turning their epidermis into a canvas, daring students wait for the artist s needle - yes, needle - to make the mark of a lifetime b obbisocks, bellbottoms, baggy jeans, and body art...They’re all fashions popular with youth throughout the last few decades. But while some styles may come and others may go (and hopefully stay gone), body art is here to stay. Undaunted by a commitment literally put in ink, college students made statements about themselves with emblems large and small. According to one popular area tattoo artist, roses were still the favorite, though Razor- backs ran a close second with Hog wild fans. “I look at the body as though it’s a temple,” she said, “and tattooing is a way of decorating the walls.” Her studio, located outside Fayetteville, was a place visited by many students. And, if the adventurous spirit contemplating a tattoo made it to the door, they v ere greeted by a motley collection of designs papering the walls and ceiling. They ranged from butterflies and flowers to scantily clad women; fervent fans of Clint Eastwood could even have the star’s face imprinted on their epidermis. For the subject’s lasting impression, the artist was able to sketch an original design or stylize a tattoo after objects or pictures. “I’ve had people bring in belt buckles and statues,” she said. “One guy brought in an incense burner.” “I’ve always wanted a tattoo,” AnneTaunton, a sophomore, said. “I wanted something that portrays me.” She opted for a daisy on her ankle. Customers paid cash up front — small tattoos run from $50 to $100.They also signed a form after reading instructions on caring for the tattoo; they must have been sober and at least 18.The tattoo “doctor swabbed by AlySOIl Low the area with antiseptic, pressed a tracing of the tattoo on the skin, and poked the skin with a dry needle in case the client jumped, so she wouldn’t leave an ink trail. “When she got the needle out, I asked myself,‘Do I really want to do this?’,” Taunton said. “I had five people with me, videotaping it and holding my hands.” Tattooing is regulated by the state health department: the needles were sterilized in an autoclave; the inks were poured into disposable cups; and the artist donned latex gloves. While rebellion and shock value were still the traditional reasons for getting tattooed, the artist suggested that the days of the bluish, smudgy biker tattoos were gone, replaced by “an art form.” “We’re able to do fantastic things that we couldn’t do ten years ago,” she said.

Directed by Kent R. Brown, the six person cast included Elizabeth Barnes as Jane; Darren Kilbury as Sidney; Rob McDowell as Ronald; Sarah Colonna as Marion; Holly Brown as Eva; and Shawn B. Young as Geoffrey. The contemporary comedy was followed by one of considerable historical renown: William Shakespeare s “Much Ado About Nothing.” The mix of low farce, high comedy, romance, drama, song and flamboyant dance was actually set in Spanish California in the 1800s for its romantic flavor, according to Roger Gross, director. The play is traditionally set in Renaissance Italy. “We found the ideal setting with all the romance that the play requires in Spanish California in the early 19th century,” Gross said. “This setting lends itself to an extreme beauty and passion of costume, architecture, and music which matches our sweet comic romance.” “Much Ado About Nothing” was the 34th production of a Shakespeare script for Gross. In his directors note, Gross observed that “Shakespeare asks more of me and the actors than any other writer. “Sometimes it’s his daring, sometimes his profundity, sometimes his outrageous bawdiness, sometimes the simple verse line that cuts to the heart,” Gross said. “Next to him, most writers seem pretty simple.They juggle two or three balls in the air at a time. Shakespeare somehow manages to keep a half dozen or so in the air at all times ” The production ran from Nov. 11-12, and Nov. 16-19. Studio performances for the semester included “Sexual Perversity in Chicago,” directed by drama student Jason Simpson, and a staging of “On Tidy Endings.” By Razorback Staff PLAYS Renaissance romance.

Eleven participants took the stage in the Union Ballroom, competing for an all-expense paid opportunity to travel to 1 Dallas for the competitions semifinals. Freshman songbird LaTonya Laird took the coveted first prize with her rendition of Mariah Careys hit “Hero.” “I do pageant and talent shows all the time, and it really helps to have people support you,” Laird said.“[The University Programs representatives] were so hospitable. “Even though I didn’t win, I had a wonderful time.” Kenton Adler and Ashley Nichols, who tied for second place, also gave musical performances: Adlers “Fo urth of July” was accompanied by his guitar, and Nichols sent shivers through the crowd with “When I Look at You.” When they weren’t entertaining their peers, students attended a wide range of entertainment and social highlights brought to them for the fall semester, including a November performance by the re¬ nowned Martha Graham Ensemble. According to Kricia Padilla, the modern dance performance was attended and enjoyed by an audience of hundreds, including several local dance studio classes. “Everybody loved it,” Padilla said. They say laughter is the best medicine — a good thing, too — since students were prone to “Bust-a-Gut” during the fall term’s series of comedians including MTV’s Ed Marques, college clowns Selected Hilarity and stand-up standout Vic Henley, whose credits include co-writer for country comedian Jeff Foxworthy s popular “Games Rednecks Play.” On a more serious note, Zev Kedem, a Holocaust survivor and member of Schindler’s list, presented to the University community his astounding story of survival. Kedem was a young child when his world was destroyed: “When it started, my mother, realizing what was happening, took my sister and myself and my grandparents to a hiding place. Kedem recounted in detail his experiences in a concentration camp and his memory of being set free: “I was the first one to head out of the hospital com¬ pound, and as I approached, one of the soldiers threw something at me ... It was a bar of chocolate from the standard K-rations that [U.S.] soldiers carried with them, and I had positive proof that we were liberated.” 48 FALL ENTERTAINMENT your song Composer and musician Brett Stair performed an original song at the MasterCard ACTS talent show.

[Armitage photo] CROSS COUNTRY Wires spring forth from the subjects head, taped tightly to the temples and grasped at the other end by a whining, clicking machine... a scientist in a wrinkled, stained lab coat scribbles furiously on a clipboard, glancing wildly at the equipment gauges... Though it may sound like your typical psychology experiment, its just Hollywood having some fun. But, while Bela Lugosi wasn’t lurking in the shadows, and the only machine in the room was usually a VCR or video camera, the Psychology Department did conduct experiments, utilizing students as their in-house supply of guinea pigs. Undergraduates were able to receive class credits for volunteering to participate, yet unlike the taped and wired subject from above, they could also bow out if at any time they felt uneasy. Kathleen Kernodle, doctoral student, said that unless students called ahead to cancel their participation, they lost one credit of however many they had amassed from the three hours of participation required. Kernodle said students who appeared upset by the experiment were referred to the psychology clinic for counseling if needed, recalling one student who was disturbed by questions based on romantic relationships - she had just broken up with her boyfriend. Jennifer Hartig had a concern of another sort. “I just wanted to do my best, but I was just worried that I’d mess up,” Hartig, a freshman, said. “But they always gave us the option to leave during the experiment if we felt uncomfortable.” Kernodle said the experiments were usually conducted using 100 to 150 subjects, and the exit of a few students did not substantially influence the results. The experiments, conducted each semester by graduate students such as Kernodle, included reactions to social scenarios and the traditional question-and-answer format. Students were often grouped in classrooms for the testing process. “I thought it would be a one-on-one interview type session, and I was nervous,” freshman Julianne Martindale said. “But I was in a classroom with about 30 people.” Kernodle said the experiments were tightly controlled by an institutional review board, and it was often difficult to proceed with “controversial” research. Kernodle said students must sign an informed consent document prior to participat¬ ing, and they are “debriefed” immediately after the experiment about its true purpose. “The research projects go through two review processes, so they’re almost risk-free,” she said. “The process is very strict.” By Briana Jennings Alyson Low It’s not exactly a scene from ‘Dr. Jekyll and Mr. Hyde,’ but for the chance at a few extra points, many first-year psychology students discover life on the other side of a two-way mirror 54 PSYCHOLOGY EXPERIMENTS Fill in the blanks.

Jim Guy Tucker and his Republican challenger in the 1994 gubernatorial race, Sheffield Nelson. The debate, held in the Arkansas Union ballroom Sept. 28, was the only forum in which the candidates faced each other during the campaign and was broadcast nationally by C-SPAN. Both men used this opportunity to promote themselves and attack their opponents positions. The questions were posed by a panel consisting of four journalists from around the state and Associated Student Government President Chuck Welch. Although many topics were addressed, including crime and state prisons, the most prevalent issue during the debate centered on each candidate s approach to taxes. To a question about the funding of the state’s Medicaid program, Nelson responded, “If I’m governor, this thing will be covered one hundred percent whether we have a soda pop tax or whether we don’t.” He cited state revenues of $600 million over the past three years as proof there were funds available. Tucker countered, stating without the proposed soft drink tax, “It is not clear that Mr. Nelson can tell us where he would get the money to pay for Medicaid.” In a question concerning the Whitewater scandal,Tucker was asked to describe his business dealings with James McDougal, head of Madison Guaranty Savings and Loan. “I had business dealings... with Mr. McDougal, as had my opponent, the president of the United States and former Senator Fulbright. All my debts were paid in full,” he said. Welch turned to education, asking if state funding of higher education was going to continue its downward trend, causing students to shoulder more of the costs. Nelson said part of the problem lies in the fact that many students are being forced to go to college when they do not want to. He said he was disturbed that 54 percent of college students in Arkansas take remedial courses, and he believes there should be more emphasis on the preparatory role of high school. Tucker pledged to hold down tuition rates to ensure that anyone can attend a state university.“My opponent favored increasing fees when he was on the [Higher Educa¬ tion Commission], and if he gets rid of revenue, he will have to raise tuition,” he said. The “soda pop” tax passed in the general election, and Tucker defeated Nelson. for a little ‘Q A’ By Warwick Sabin GUBERNATORIAL DEBATE 57 1 - ' T ' WINTER 59 f r edeye” is typically associated with miserable late night flights, but University Programs adds a fun dimension to that tired word every winter: for them Redeye is an all-night celebration in the Union for the benefit of shaking those mid-winter blues. Elvis and Wayne Newton would have been at home at this year’s party: the theme was “Redeyed in Vegas,The One Night Stand.” The 1995 Redeye event showcased the talents of Ashanti, best known for their song “Something’s Wrong (Bump ‘n’ Grind).” Ashanti, an all-female threesome based out ofTexas, entertained with a sound that mixed jazz, R B and gospel. Also featured at the party was comedian Mark Moran, who has performed on “Evening at the Improv” and been reviewed by Cosmopolitan and Playgirl. Flip Orley, a comedian and hypnotist, was also on hand to widen the variety of entertainment. Having appeared on “Entertainment Tonight” and “Comic Strip Live,” Orley s show, during which he hypnotized several volunteer audience members, was a hit with the crowd of party-goers. Lester, “The Professional Fool,” and a roving caricature artist added to the list of entertainers.

Lawrence brought his talent home on February 2, greeted by a capacity country-lovin’ crowd in Barnhill Arena waiting to hear hits such as “Sticks and Stones.’’ In a backstage interview, Lawrence said he wrote his first song when he was four. “My mother told me when I was two or three years old, before I could even read, that she had a stack of old albums of Charley Pride and Glen Campbell and things of that period, and she’d say, ‘Go get me such and such song.’ I’d count the grooves on the record and find her the song she wanted to hear.” Students served up entertainment Hog-style, when the Razorback Marching Band put on its Band Spectacu¬ lar. The show, scheduled for the third straight year, was a collection of the songs the band plays on the field, “Hogwild tunes,” and a variety of other pieces. Recreating the excitement on the Walton Arts Center stage, the Majorettes, the flagline and the Razorback cheerleaders took part in the show. “It’s meant to be fun,” band member Jana Mathews said. “We do everything we do in the stands, only we do it sitting down. by RuZOrbuck Stuff Judith Berg, whose husband was gunned down by neo-Nazis, spoke to the campus community about society’s responsibility to abolish hate. “What is hate?” she posed. “You know what it is. It’s a virus, it’s a cancer; the cells divide. Its a disease, an infection. And it is chosen because it becomes convenient.We like ourselves when we have something to think about” Berg’s presentation was necessarily blunt: “Hate loves words like nigger, fag, kike, spic, chink, honky. Now, when your vocabulary is encompassed like that, how do you develop? That kind of hate takes all day and all night; it’s consuming. It festers like a sore.” Y 7 WINTER ENTERTAINMENT 63 Shaking off the traditional rules of courtship, several students open up their inbox to find that love is alive and at the computer terminal C i upid is in cyberspace and love has gone on-line. Relationships no longer suck, they byte. And a delete button has finally been invented that actually destroys memory. Well, that’s a plus, anyway. It might sound depressing, the prospect of people carrying on conversations on the computer — faceless interaction that threatens the definition of society as we know it. . . Not so, said two students who found intimacy on the Internet. According to Ramona and Tracy, mingling on the monitor is a great opportunity to meet people from all walks of life. “It’s definitely a good way to make friends,”Tracy, a senior, said. “I am fascinated with people of other cultures; it s the whole reason I got on there in the first place.” Diversity is not the only appeal of these computer circles, however. “My only friends are those on the computer,” Ramona, also a senior, said. “I talk to the same people all the time.You become a regular and everyone knows you.” “It’s easier to meet people, especially for someone shy like me,”Tracy said, comparing the conversations on-line to interacting with guys at parties. “I know that if someone comes up to me at a party, it’s probably got to do by Alyson Low with my physical appearance. On the computer, if someone starts talking to me, it’s because they like my personality.” Though they didn’t set out in exploration of romance on the Internet, the two nevertheless found it. And their stories illustrate that the more things change, the more they stay the same: RAMONA’S ROGUE Ramona was surfing the ’Net when her romantic interest washed ashore on her screen. She was talking on a channel heavily traveled by college students, when she noticed his “nick” (computer lingo for alias), “Phinupe,” signaling to her that he was a member of the fraternity Kappa Alpha Psi. Ramona is a member of Alpha Kappa Alpha, and thus a conversation began, founded on their continued on page 61 ' T J 64 INTERNET CONNECTIONS _y talk to me Surfing the ’Net proved to be a popular social event for many students as the traditional meeting and greeting of friends exploded to the global level with the touch of a button. Senior Tracy Hill said she not only used her e-mail connections for easy access to on-campus friends but also to communicate with people across many time zones. [Rinehart photo] the hub Computer labs across campus became even more popular as more and more students discovered the wonders of Netscape and other world wide web programs.Though designed primarily for homework, the labs were often busy with students “chatting” on line. [Rinehart photo] INTERNET CONNECTIONS 65 terminal fascination Though threats of Internet censorship boomed loudly from government officials in Washington, students enjoyed the free access to virtually anywhere in the world with the click of a mouse. Many students set up their own homepages, while a few student organizations such as Alpha Phi Omega and the Amateur Radio Club joined the University itself on the world wide web. [Rinehart photo] you have mail The popularity of e-mail grew as students discovered the new technology was fast, easy and fun. Some classes began requiring students to set up and use an account, while the University made strides to establish an account for every student enrolled, including new freshmen, by the fall of 1995. [Rinehart photo] cyber-happy Sophomore Greg Carver logs on in the Gibson Computer Lab. While many students found new friends on line, some even found a romantic connection. Robin, a senior who met her boyfriend on line, explained, “When people are being truly honest, they get to know other people before they are able to make judgments.” [Rinehart photo] rv f k 66 INTERNET CONNECTIONS continued from page 64 Greek affiliation. Ramona and her friend talked once a day, sometimes twice, for 45 minutes at a time. The relationship culminated in a holiday visit from Phinupe to Ramonas hometown to meet her and her family. The following semester, however, saw a downturn in their involvement as their studies took a toll on their “on-line love affair.”They still conversed on the computer, but they spoke on the phone even less. This continued through March, until Ramona began receiving messages from other women about the man named Phinupe. Interestingly, the traditional scenario of revelation and confrontation came into play. Ramona was asked whether she knew the man and was told he had been married and fathered two children. When she presented the allegations to Phinupe, he denied them, demanding that he be given access to her account to read what was being written about him. Ramona refused, of course, but Phinupe attempted to hack her account and made prank phone calls. “I couldn’t believe anything he said,” Ramona said. “I really value honesty, so I ended it. “I felt comfortable with him. He sounded genuine, sincere,” Ramona explained. “But I was naive.You have to go into this with the understanding that people will not always be truthful; they are apt to fantasize or lie, they have a whole other personality on the computer. “I got hurt because I believed him.” TRACY’S TRAVELS Tracy met a young man within two weeks of learning how to get around on the Internet. She was talking on a channel of about 45 people, when he responded to her question about who had seen “Pulp Fiction,” a movie Tracy liked so well she had seen it six times.The two also liked the singer Kate Bush, and from that point, they would talk for several hours at one sitting. Tracy recollected their longest conversation as having lasted 12 hours, which was especially tough on her friend, because he was studying in England at the time. “He was six hours ahead of me, so if we signed off at midnight my time, it was 6 a.m., there,” Tracy said. The two enjoyed each others company so much that they made plans for Tracy to come to England. “I am not a daredevil kind of person,’’Tracy said. “Taking an international flight is one thing, but trusting someone I’ve never met in person to take care of me for two weeks in England is another. It was a very liberating experience.” The pair had agreed to be friends on the computer, but by the end of the two weeks in England, romance had blossomed between them. “Seeing‘Phantom of the Opera’ probably didn’t help,” Tracy joked. However, once she was back stateside,Tracy thought the relationship should return to friendship, and that they should move on with their lives. But Tracy’s overseas friend wrote to confess that he wanted to spend the rest of his life with her. Not knowing how to respond, she hadn’t written him back. “I knew he was more serious than me.” Looking back,Tracy said she couldn’t believe she had trusted someone so completely. Like Ramona, she recommended caution when initiating relation¬ ships on the computer. “This experience has taught me to keep it friendly,” she said. “It’s just too weird, and your expectations are too high. It’s better to start a roman ce in person. “And don’t dash off to meet someone.” There has been some suggestion of regulating access to the open channels, yet while the two women agreed that “there are a lot of weirdos out there” on the information superhighway, they suggested computer addicts should just be on the lookout and swerve to avoid them. “You can get on the same channels every day, and it’s like meeting friends at a coffeeshop,” Tracy said, adding, “only you can sit and type in your underwear.” INTERNET CONNECTIONS 67 basketball hot rffe years after moving into thl l || gL u � Conference, the Lady Razorbacks return to the national spotlight with a No. 15 ranking and a knockout 23-7, record.

[Croson photo] r f 72 FULBRIGHT MEMORIAL The death of one In a tribute to the life and accomplishments of one of the most influential men in the history of Arkansas, leaders from this state and beyond joined family and friends in Fayetteville Sunday, Feb. 19, for a memorial service honoring Sen. J. William Fulbright. Encompassing many colorful eulogies and speeches, the event took place in Giffels Auditorium of Old Main, where not one seat was empty — leaving many people no choice but to listen to an audio broadcast of the service outside. Fulbright College of Arts and Sciences Dean Bernard Madison opened the formal remarks by stating that “no place is more appropriate” than Old Main for a service honoring the senator. As a place of education, and the building in which Fulbright attended classes and taught, Madison emphasized the significance of the landmark in the life of Fulbright and as “the symbol of education in Arkansas.” He called the senator “the heir of Jefferson in our time,” and said he looked forward to “words, music and images that would kindle memories of the man ” Chancellor Dan Ferritor described Fulbright as “a fiercely independent thinker whose studies led him to a life of achieving peace through education and understand¬ ing.” According to Ferritor, history will record the Fulbright Educational Exchange program as “the finest attempt at peace ever known.” Irma Fitch Giffels, namesake of the auditorium which hosted the service and college classmate of Fulbright at the University, lent a more personal touch to the tributes. Giffels remembered the inscription under Fulbright s picture in the 1922 Razorback yearbook referring to the senator as “one of the most promising bits of material at the University of Arkansas.” Of Fulbright she said, “What a man. Brilliant, honest, thought¬ ful, useful. What a senator. What a statesman.” Associated Student Government President Chuck Welch, serving in a position once held by the senator, called Fulbright a “leader and inspiration for the students of the University of Arkansas. He loved the University of Arkansas, and his legacy will live on.” James B. Blair said Fulbrights greatest campaign was one of “reason, justice and humanity” that will carry on as long as there is “one human being who will oppose war and promote peace.” He added, “In the next 1,000 years, there will never be a valid history of the 20th century that does not honor the name of J. William Fulbright.” dignitaries with family and friends, as the campus community remembers J. William Fulbright By Warwick Sabin -r FULBRIGHT MEMORIAL 73 . ' J r ' vN Coming together for a campus cultural celebration, students, faculty, staff and guest speakers take pride in promoting Black History Month rom forums to romantic comedies, the University community united to honor the contributions of black history during the month of February. The full calendar of events included a month-long Dr. Martin Luther King, Jr., and black history T-shirt sale, as well as a Yocum Hall-sponsored Black History Month film festival each Wednesday. The celebration also included a slate of speakers, ranging from on- campus motivators to nationally-known lecturers. Law student James Valley gave a speech in Gregson Hall; he challenged students to encourage administrators to establish the requirement that all students take a history course on the social contributions of women and minorities. Two of the month s most notable events took place as lectures. Nettie Washington Douglass, the great-granddaughter of Booker T. Washington and the great-great-granddaughter of Frederick Douglass, addressed the completion of the goals of her ancestors during her presentation. Author and lecturer Walter E. Williams also spoke to an audience of more than 300 about economics and other issues facing black Americans. I t ' s hard to imagine America without its diversity, without its races, cultures, sexes and other subdivisions — together a strong, firm, enduring, achieving team, even champions, but apart fractured, separate, segregated, weak.” JAMES VALLEY, law student, Black History Month speaker I do believe that about every hundred years we ought to stop, refect and take measure of where we are.

Coffeehouse featured a variety of musical acts as well as the occasional reading. [Armitage photo] :OFFEEHOUSE verybody gets fifteen minutes of fame, the old saying goes, and sure enough, students got theirs every other Thursday at Coffeehouse. Sponsored by Residents’ Interhall Congress, the coffeehouse was created to provide the campus community with a source of entertain¬ ment that would be inexpensive to maintain, free of charge and an opportunity for students to be stars for a night. While the majority of acts consisted of students, some talent made its way off Dickson Street, adding even more color to the variety show. And, according to Heather Diemer, member of RIC, the event became so popular that acts were booked months in advance. Chris Schlientz, a past adviser for the event, said the gatherings have also produced some acts that have gone on to perform all over Dickson, such as the Shagcats, The Barking Logs, Sol, The Remnants and Shave-Hoc. Coffeehouse began several years ago in Fulbright Dining Hall, where, according to Schlientz, it came close to capturing the feel of the beatnik era in the late ’60s with its small and intimate space. The atmosphere changed, however, when the gathering was moved to the lower floor of Brough Commons, known as Baby Brough. There, with more room and better equipment, Schlientz said the environment was more like a nightclub, and attendance quadrupled. Schlientz said Coffeehouse has provided a vehicle for people to come together and enjoy some of their fellow students’ performances, and it has proved a great atmosphere for poetry reading, as well. While some students have actually brought books to study, many others have come to visit with their friends in a place to escape their residence halls and most aspects of school life. I am proud to say that we have given quite a few students the confidence and motivation to go on and pursue a creative outlet in their lives. ” Chris Schlientz, graduate student I go because it ' s free, know the people who play there and many of my friends go, too.

But, thanks to the wide variety of W clubs, coffee shops and restaurants in town — many within i walking distance of the campus — fun seekers were never at risk of being bored. “We like to go to coffee shops and just sit around and talk,’’ Laura King, a senior, said. King said she and her friends usually prefered to spend time in a relaxed setting such as Emerald Coast or Maxine’s Tap Room. However, they also liked to see live music at the clubs in the downtown area. “We love to go see bands outdoors,” King said. “That’s what makes Fayetteville so great.” Kyle Kellams, University staff member and former student, said Fayetteville has always been replete with entertainment. “One of the great things is that some of my favorite places when I was a student are some of my favorite places now,” he said. Kellams said that as new establishments opened, the city’s nightlife improved. He said Powerhouse Seafood and the Ozark Brewing Co., which opened last year, were wonderful additions to downtown Fayetteville. He added there were a few bands that he would always enjoy. PeterSOIl “I always go out of my way to see Trout Fishing in America,” he said. A few of the most popular adult night spots in town were JR’s and the Light Bulb Club, George’s Majestic Lounge, Ron’s Place and Doc Murdock’s. Susan Fenno, a bartender at George’s, said George’s has “always” been a favorite among the college crowd. “It’s like your neighborhood bar,” she said.

Though not as glamourous as some of the newer clubs, the Rec still managed to draw a crowd. [Rinehart photo] me continued from page 89 George’s their home base, but the bar was always receptive to newer talents such as Be and Luscious Spiller. A landmark on Dickson Street since 1928, generations of students were known to have frequented George’s famous Beer Garden. “I know my dad came here, ,, Fenno said. James Hornsey, a manager at Doc Murdock’s, said Doc’s catered to music lovers with all tastes. The building was divided into two clubs—one for rock and roll fans and one for country fans. While most of the music played at Doc’s was prerecorded, the club still drew some big-name acts. Hornsey said Garth Brooks once played in the country bar and Warrant blasted the rock and roll side. And, this year Bo Diddley played a sold out show at Doc’s. Hornsey said Doc’s, which opened in 1987, has become a Fayetteville tradition. “We’ve seen lots of clubs comeand go, but Doc’s keeps trucking along,” he said. College students still drank a lot of coffee, and until this year, Arsaga’s Espresso Cafe, located just off the Fayetteville Square, was responsible for keeping thousands of students alert during study sessions. But Fayetteville saw new coffee shops spring up all over town, seemingly in a matter of weeks. One of the best attended shops was Wide Spread Bagel, a coffee and sandwich shop. It offered an alcohol and smoke free alternative to students who enjoy acoustic music. Wide Spread Bagel featured amateur musical talents on Friday and Saturday nights. Many students got their first tastes of Sol and the Night Hawks at Wide Spread Bagel. Senior Chris Jones said he first went to Wide Spread Bagel when one of his friends was providing the musical entertainment. “Some of the bands have been pretty interesting,” Jones said. He said the coffee shop is a healthy environment for underage music fans. The Emerald Coast provided a more sophisticated version of the traditional Fayetteville coffee shop. Patrons 21 and older could order from a menu of alcoholic gourmet coffee drinks. Like most restau¬ rants and clubs in town, Emerald Coast was a private establishment, requiring coffee lovers to invest in a membership before drinking. Fayetteville also boasted some of the best restaurants in the state. Two of the most prominent near the campus were the 1936 Club and Uncle Gaylord’s Mountain Cafe. The ’36 Club, which adjoined the D-Lux Cafe, served its trade¬ mark “Good Food” in both restaurants. Uncle Gaylord’s, located on Mountain Street near the Fayetteville Square, provided an atmosphere that cannot easily be duplicated. Nowhere else in Fayetteville could someone dine in a renovated garage surrounded by shelves of books. Boredom remained a very unnecessary state of mind in Fayetteville. No one could ask for more distractions... not when Arkansas’ answer to New Orleans is only a two minute walk from any classroom on campus. cornerstone of fun The newly-established Ozark Brewing Co., comfortably located across the street from the Walton Arts Center at the heart of Dickson Street, quickly became a favorite among many college students. Fayetteville’s one and only micro¬ brewery served food until midnight in its downstairs pub, but dining upstairs required a reservation. [Rinehart photo] no pets allowed Not everyone had the best time on Dickson Street; pets were a “do not” at most clubs and restaurants. And, with Fayetteville’s leash law in effect, passers- by often found an easy target for petting. [Rinehart photo] ole for jose’s Definitely a campus favorite, Jose’s Mexican restaurant was popular not only for its fiesta-filled atmosphere; the margaritas spoke for themselves.

Whitestone crowned the springtime events with an appearance at the Union Ballroom on May 3. Whitestone won the Miss America title in September, 1994, but her greatest accomplishment was perhaps her conquering the barriers of communication. When she was 18 months old, Whitestone lost her hearing after having a reaction to a diptheria-tetanus shot. The Alabama native shared her message that “anything is possible” with the crowd, telling the story of her triumph over living nearly an entire lifetime with a disability. Whitestone shared the experience of winning first runner up in the Miss Alabama pageant twice, before winning the title on her third attempt. She said the extra experience actually helped her in the Miss America pageant, as each contestant may compete only once for the coveted crown. “But when I failed, I didn’t look at myself as a loser, I looked at it as an opportunity for improvement,” Whitestone said. Whitestone told the audience that negativity is the greatest disability there is. “If you’re negative, you handicap yourself— not physically, but mentally. I am deaf but I don’t see it as an obstacle. I see it as an opportunity for creativity.” Whitestone used her crown to illustrate the five points she believes are crucial to success; placing a finger on each point, the dark-haired, dark-eyed dynamo listed a positive attitude, a dream, willingness to work hard, the ability to face problems and a support team as the elements for achievement. Whitestone also served on President Bill Clinton’s committee for workers with disabilities.

[Croson photo] continued from page 93 Strait wasn’t the only country star to wow a crowd this spring: Alabama, one of the most successful country groups in history with approximately 150 awards to its name, serenaded country lovers on May 2. Backed by pictures of past albums and scenic views, the well- established, well-loved group delivered favorites like “Mountain Music” and “The Closer You Get.” Newcomer Neal McCoy opened the show, the proceeds of which benefited technological improvements in the Bentonville School District. Yang Feng, internationally known puppet master, had his audi¬ ence on a string in March with deft tricks and beautifully crafted puppets. Feng, a fifth generation puppeteer from the Fujan Province in China, carved his own puppets and performed most of his shows solo. Feng enchanted the crowd with skits such as “The Monkey Goes Fishing,” in which a monkey attempted to hook a colorful fish, although they became friends in the end. In another show, a puppet put on a pair of glasses and the n removed them to clean the lenses. In yet another segment, a tiger puppet swallowed a monk puppet whole. Following the performance, Feng demonstrated the sophisticated hand movements which made the puppets appear to move of their own accord. The CBS College Tour made its annual stop on campus during early April. Students took advantage of the spring weather to visit the variety of booths on the Union mall, including taking turns giving mock broadcasts from “the losing teams locker room” and playing party games based on popular CBS sitcoms. Participants were also treated to hourly prize giveaways. Dr. Ruth Westheimer put her trademark spin on the typical birds- and-bees discussion March 8, covering everything from masturbation (“Telling your children about touching themselves is the same as picking your nose — do it in the bathroom and the bedroom, not out in the open”) to contraceptiomWestheimer told the audienc e, “We can send a man to the moon, but we can’t create a perfect contraceptive.” Westheimer also tackled the topic of abortion. “I know it’s controversial,” she said, “but it must remain legal.” Turning to the more aesthetic aspects of sex, Westheimer said most women can learn to have orgasms. “The best lover, even one trained by me, cannot force a woman to have an orgasm. She must allow herself to have one.” The good doctor said she thinks people can have fulfilling sexual relationships in their 60s and beyond. “I believe sexually literate people can be sexually active until the late stages of life.” Westheimer said that if she can prevent one person from having an unwanted pregnancy or getting a sexually transmitted disease, then she has done her job professionally. “Sex is not between the waist and the knees,” she said. “Sex is in the brain.” PRING ENTERTAINMENT rock this country Alabama capped off the years concerts with a May appearance in Barnhill Arena.

[O’Neill photo] 96 SPRING PLAYS Oklahoma The spring season for the University Theatre ignited in controversy with the production of “Oleanna,” written by Pulitzer Prize winner David Mamet. The production, staged in February, was based on one of the most hotly debated issues on campuses nationwide: sexual harassment. Brandon Keener played John, a professor. John talks to a student named Carol, played by Rachel Fink, about her progress in a class, and throughout the play, the conversation turns and twists in a complicated, ambiguous manner. The play does not draw conclusions for the audience; they are left to determine who was right and wrong, and whether sexual harassment took place in the discussion. With the Ira Aldridge Players, the Theatre presented “The Colored Museum” by Tony award-winning director George C. Wolfe in early March. The script was modeled after the Ingungun theater of theYoruba tribe in Nigeria; unlike Western plays, it asks for audience response, but like Western productions, the script is intended “to teach and to heal,” according to D. Roger Dixon, director. The play is 11 sketches connected by the fact that they all deconstruct black culture and challenge social stereotypes. Humor is the essence of the play; using identifiable social images, the sketches take shots at everything from Aunt Jemima, Ebony Magazine to Josephine Baker, and black yuppies. Regina Wilson, Derrick Cohens, Barbara Nelson, Lindsay Hart and Lequetta Jenkins were the featured players. The Theatre kicked up its heels with the production of Rodgers and Hannnersteins musical “Oklahoma” on April 14, 15 and 19-22.The play is set in Oklahoma in the early 1900s; it’s the story of love between cowboy Curly and farmgirl Laurey, and becomes complicated when a rivalry breaks out between the cowboys and farmers. Dwayne Walden played Curly, and Mitzi Miller played Laurey. The cast of 27 actors and 20 dancers was directed by professor Patricia Romanov. The onstage ensemble was backed up by an eight-piece band and supported by 40 people backstage. In addition to the main stage productions, the semester s theatrical season was highlighted by “alternative” kinds of performances, including a Studio 3 production of “Pvt. Wars” staged in the Union Theater. Studio 3 is an independent student-run drama organization; this first production was a black comedy about three veterans recovering in a hospital. The script, by James McLure, explores manhood, convalescence and Post Vietnam Syndrome. The play was directed by Jason Simpson. The University Theatre kicks off the season with a live hot potato, stirs up the conscious with a social stage piece and twirls up its skirts with a musical favorite By Razorback Staff SPRING PLAYS Q if ' DAY IN THE LIFE EVERYBODY’S DIFFERENT.

Then I drive my car to Barnhill. 3:00 p.m . All the girls load into the van for a workout at the golf course... it ' s going to be a tough one!

Tm singing to the music because this is the only place my voice sounds good). 7:00 p.m. Eating rice and beans while talking to my mom on the phone. I ' ll see her next weekend when we race in California. 8:00 p.m. It ' s quiet time. I light a candle and write in my journal. Tonight, I jot down ideas for a children ' s book and write a poem or two. 10:00 p.m. Exhausted from the busy day, I usually fall asleep with the dying flame of the candle. A DAY IN THE LIFE ' each tim e the traveler | door swung open, i always had a dead weight in my stomach reminding | me i could be walking into absolute disaster’ tuesday 6:30 a.m. Time to shave and shower! Generally ; my typical day would begin about this time in the morning, and it always began with a hot, steamy shower. Without such a brisk wake-up call, I couldn ' t function through the day. 7:00 a.m. Quiet time! By this time, I would be dressed and well awake, and it would be time for the most important part of my daily routine — my time alone with God. Generally, I would spend about an hour studying the Bible and pray¬ ing. Without this time to relax and get my perspective right, I doubt if I could have handled the pressure of balancing The Arkansas Traveler editorship with being a graduate assistant and a student. 8:00 a.m. Planning and grading! The next hour of my time was generally spent planning my day to make sure I didn ' t skip any appointments or forget to do anything. Also, I often used this time to catch up on the papers I needed to grade for the two sections of Journalism Style and Usage I helped teach. 9:00 a.m. Arrive at The Traveler By this time, the morning ritual of walking in The Traveler door to see what emergency had evolved since the previ¬ ous evening would occur. Each time The Traveler office door swung open and I entered, I always had a dead weight in my stomach reminding me that I could be walking into absolute disaster. 10:00 a.m. Time to publish a paper! Tuesdays were production days for our Wednesday newspaper, so by 10 in the morning, my schedule was ready to hit the hectic stage. There was always copy to edit, the editorial pages to design and of course, the editorial to write. So, for the next three to four hours, my schedule was generally a whirlwind. My section editors would often come unraveled before my eyes as they realized there wasn ' t enough copy to fill their sections, glitches would be discovered in the photos or headlines of the paper, and I would try to calm the storm while penning an enlightening editorial that 14,000 students with amaz¬ ingly diverse backgrounds would all enjoy. 1:00 p.m. Lunch and errands! This wasn ' t always a daily feature, depending on how well the paper was coming, but if things were running smoothly, I would escape the office and head to the Union for a slice of pizza and a Coke. Usually, I also used this time to mail letters, pay bills, and visit some of the campus leaders in the Union to keep in touch with campus events. 2:30 p.m. Damage control! For the next hour and a half I would be busy making sure The Traveler was ready to walk out the door and head to the printer I would scan headlines, nervously re-read my editorial, and scan the other sections, all the while trying to keep a grip on the steady flow of Traveler controversies — advertising errors, angry reporters, harassing letter writers, etc. 4:00 p.m. Class preparation! Hopefully, Mr. Purvis will never read this, but I have to admit that the 4 o ' clock hour was my time to begin preparing for tny Tuesday night graduate seminar on International Communications. Usually, once the newspaper left the office a t 4,1 could retreat either into the silence of my office or my home and devour some reading before class. 6:00 p.m. Class! For the next three hours, I would be in my three hour seminar on International Communications. The class was excellent and always full of interesting discussion from the other 12 graduate students in the seminar and in many ways, it was a good way for me to unwind from the day ' s stress. 9:00 p.m. Dinner, etc! After I left my class, I would usually run by the journalism office and pick up the papers that I needed to grade for my classes Jo f Wednesday, try to scurry around and answer my day ' s e-mail messages, and theU head home for dinner. Dinner was usually something fast and frozen that tvoS easy to clean up and hard to digest. 10:00 p.m. Do everything time! This was my time to catch up on everything I couldn ' t do while I was at work. I would usually use this as time to repair all of the friendships I was neglecting while working 50 or 60 hours a week at school . f would make several personal calls to friends I hadn ' t seen in a while (I actually had a list I rotated of friends I needed to check on — if I hadn ' t made the list, 1 would have never kept in touch with them). This was usually my first chance during the day to begin to feel like a real human being with a real life. I coiilA laugh at my friends ' jokes and not worry about being an editor, a teacher, or 0 student leader. I A DAY IN THE LIFE Greg Sykes, a graduate student seeking his Master’s in journalism, served as editor of The Arkansas Traveler from April, 1994 to April, 1995. Sykes said of his typical day, “With the aid of some coffee or another heavily caffeinated beverage, I usually made it through with only a little hair pulling and a minimum of frustration.” Shawn Lawson, a senior from Malvern, served as president of the Black Students Association in 1994-95. Lawson said he craved co-curricular involvement, adding, “If I am not busy and running around like a chicken with its head cut off, I feel lost.” Wednesday ‘when i do fir Tally get home,||p i’m e) hausted. then i re member have r i homework to do.l when will i learn? probat iHfclnot any time an Oh no!! It can’t be!! That can’t be my alarm going off already!! It seems as if I just laid my head on my pillow. I guess it’s time to get up and face the real world again. Here goes another strenuous day in the life of Shawn Lawson. khawri lawson Today is packed with things I have to do. The majority of them are not for my personal benefit, but are for many of the organizations that I am a part of. Unfor¬ tunately, I don’t have a lot of personal time. I often stretch myself too thin and rather than slacking on some of my extracur¬ ricular activities, I run all over campus and all over the city for Alpha Phi Alpha, the Black Students Association, and or Inspirational Singers. When I do finally get home, I’m exhausted. Then I remember I have homework to do. When will I learn? Probably not any time soon. It’s time to get up and wade through my closet to find something to wear today. I have to admit that I’m a neat freak. I have to get up and iron everything that I put on. Even if it’s just a T-shirt and a pair of jeans. Now that I don’t live on campus, but in a fraternity house, I have to be dressed for the day when I leave in die morning. No more are the days ofYocum Hall when I could wake up, throw 0n some warm-ups, brush my teeth and run to class. After class I could come back, shower and then put on some real clothes. Oh how I miss those days. Now dressed, and half awake, I sit through one of Dr. William Etges’ genetics lectures. He’s discussing how mutations occur in Drosophila Malangster, a com¬ mon fruit fly. That reminds me, after the BSA executive meeting, I have to go check on the flies that we are required to breed in lab this semester. Hopefully they haven’t all died. That would be just my luck. After genetics and plant taxonomy, I’m off to Jaquator Hamer’s office, our new BSA adviser. We have to discuss the agenda for the executive meeting taking place later this afternoon and how the search for a speaker for the BSA Honors and Awards Ceremony is coming along. When our little meeting is over, I then nm up to the office and see if anyone has left me any messages. I’m scared to find °ut. It may mean more errands to run. Thank goodness, no messages. Since there is nothing pertinent that I have to do in the office, I ride the bus l } ack to the fra t house to get my car. My fraternity is having is 20th anniversary on campus this year. There’s so much to do before the end of the month. Everything has to be great, or we’ll hear it from our alumni. One of the projects is having a composite of the brothers made for the mantle. Of course, I’m in charge of getting it together. On my way, I stop at Burger King to grab something to eat. I often get so busy that I forget to eat until late in the day. Today my stomach wasn’t having that. After dropping off the proofs, I go back to the Union and drive around the parking lot for almost five minutes until someone moves their car so I can park. I’ll be so glad when the University gets the parking deck built. It’ll be such a big help. After scrounging for change in my ashtray for the meter, I realize that I have enough time to go check on my flies for my genetics class. I won’t change their food today. I’ll just make sure they haven’t croaked. Well, my flies are still alive and well. Now it’s time to go to my last class of the day. It’s my leadership class taught by Dr. Lyle Gohn and Ms. Hamer. This class has been a big help in teaching me how to better manage my time and how to be more productive with my organizations. I wish this class would have been avail¬ able earlier in my college career. It could have really made a difference in my present crazy lifestyle. Class was short today, as was my executive meeting. My officers really had things together, and we got a lot of things accomplished. I’m really lucky to have good officers because I’m the type of person who will, instead of asking someone over and over again to do something, just go and do it myself. And most of the time I’d rather do it myself because then I know it has been done to my satisfac¬ tion.This is something that my leadership class has really helped me with, but I’ve still got to work on delegating authority a little more. Well, my day is basically over. I now have to go home, straighten up the mess my fraternity brothers have surely made throughout the day, do some homework and finally spend a little time with my girlfriend. My day was hectic and sometimes stressful, but I wouldn’t have it any other way. I have to have something to do. It gives me a feeling of accomplishment and of self-worth. Wlien I lay down to sleep at night, I ask myself, “Shawn, did you make a difference today?” And if my answer is yes, I sleep much better. A DAY IN THE LIFE 105 I s� ?s m thursday ' even though it | is the easiest class day, my day on campus will not usually come to a close until about 7:30 or 8 at night’ 5:30 a.m .The alarm goes off. Roll¬ ing out of bed, my day has just, begun. 1 make sure everyone is up and getting ready for their day and then make sure I have everything packed for the day a t hand — homework, materials, books, ID, keys. 6:30 a.m. Finally, I have my chance to get ready and be out the door. Leav¬ ing early is a must for a couple of rea¬ sons. First, to be on campus by 7 a.m., to find a parking spot, and second, to miss the rush hour traffic. 7:00 a.m . Once I have parked the car nnd walked to the Arkansas Union, I Immediately go to the Returning Stu¬ dents Association office. I unload my books, start the coffee pot, and make sure I am ready for my 8:00 class. While the coffee is perking, I make sure the room is ready for the day. I turn on the computer and begin transcribing my notes from the day before (which were taken in shorthand) so they are up-to-date at the end of the week. I print them up and pm them in their proper folders. 7:45 a.m. It is time for me to start walking to the FIPER building for my first class. 6:30 a.m. I catch the paratransit van back up the hill to the Union. I am again back at the computer transcribing my notes and catching up from the day before if necessary. Treva Jackson spent many hours in the Returning Students Association office every week, often working at the computer on various projects [left] or talking with other students, such as James Chambers [right], about cam¬ pus issues. As an officer in two student organizations, Jackson also spent a considerable amount of time in committee meetings and performed day- to-day rituals such as checking the groups’ mailboxes [opposite page]. Noon I break for lunch and run simple errands that need to be done. 1:45 p.m. It is time to head out to Memorial Hall for my next class — Research Methods. 3:30 p.m. It is time to head back to the Union and up to the RSA office again to continue rewriting my notes. Classwise, Thursday has been the easiest day I have during the week. Even though it is the easiest class day, my day on campus will not usually come to a close until about 7:30 or 8 at night. In between my class schedule, I fit scheduled committee meetings lam on, and I am also working on the schedul¬ ing of meetings and events for the two organizations of which I am an officer. I also answer a number of phone calls and provide help or information to the many who stop by with questions. 9:00 p.m. I finally arrive home, make sure my family needs arc met and watch the 10:00 news 10:30 p.m. I can finally crawl into bed, ready for the alarm to go off again at 5:30 a.m. A DAY IN THE LIFE 107 I through all of this, i can’t help but feel kin d of importan t when i realize the vital part that the international students play on friday sohail omar 8:00 a.m. wake up... barely; I hit the snooze, and flop back into bed. 8:35 a.m . I perform the most excruciating task of my entire day: I finally man¬ age to get out of bed, after hitting the snooze three times and amble to the showers. 9:15 a.m. By now, I have showered, shaved and shampooed and am off to my very first class of the day. 10:30 a.m. I make it through another French class without falling asleep and stop by Brough to grab a quick breakfast-lunch combo (Bon appetit.). 11:30 a.m. I find myself in my Junior English class where I learn the art of dangling modifiers, splicing commas and fragmenting sentences. 12:30 p.m. My shortest day of classes is over and I head over to Gibson com¬ puter lab to check my E-mail. My next stop is the Union where I perform the age-old ritual of checking the In ternational Studen ts Organization mailbox. 1:00 p.m. I arrive at the ISO office for my scheduled office hours (1-3 p.m.). The first, couple of minutes are spent sorting mail and clearing my desk (it ' s amazing how you always find something that you distinctly remember throwing away just yesterday on top of your desk again the next morning). An officer ' s office hours are usually spent in the planning and pursuit of many different activities. For the president, the most important task is coordinating the efforts of all the officers and other members heading up different committees dealing with these events and also to establish and maintain a repertoire with other students and the administration at the University. As a matter of fact, most of my time in the office is spent making calls: to another student body president to confirm participation in an event, to the people at the Physical Plant asking them to deliver barricades, or to the chancellor inviting him to the banquet. It ' s time consuming, but fun never¬ theless. Through all of this, I can ' t help but feel kind of important when I realize the vital part that the international students play on campus and the ISO ' s con¬ tribution in promoting cultural diversity and awareness on the campus. I also make a point to talk to our adviser, Rebecca Grant. Her constant participation and vigilance keeps me and the other officers on our toes. 3:15 p.m. It ' s time to catch some Z ' s and I find myself back in my room and back in my bed (after all, I have to save some energy for Friday night). 4:15 p.m. The all too familiar ISO office is the scene again. Every Friday, all the officers meet for a brief review session at the office to report whatever progress has been made on their individual ends throughout the week. I find it to be a very useful exercise to help keep abreast with the latest developments on all sides. My job at these meetings is to ensure that, everything is on schedule and that all the officers are coordinating their efforts and energies. Quite often, there may be lags and some officers may find their work overlapping with someone else ' s. In such cases, I usually try to re-delegate tasks and diffuse confrontations. I am not always successful, though, and fortunately whenever such is the case, another officer steps in and manages to control the situation. This is what I love about our teamwork and our team in particular... you can always count on your teammate to help you out if you are stuck and need a hand. And that is exactly how the ISO functions, and I find myself in awe at times when I look at our teamwork and all that we have managed to put together successfully, considering the fact that, we all come from different countries and cultural backgrounds. 6:00 p.m. It ' s dinner time and yet another trip to Brough Commons ensues. 7:00 p.m. I find myself frantically making calls, trying to invite myself over to different friends ' houses and trying to locate where the coolest parties will be. 8:30 p.m. Usually by this time on Friday nights, I am out with my friends and am ready to paint the town red (all 53 sq. ft. of it). From here on¬ ward, I really don ' t know what I might end up doing; I just hope that I have a grand time doing whatever I do. One thing is for sure though... the day is not over yet. Sohail Omar, a senior from Pakistan, said that one of the most important parts of his day as president of the ISO was talking with the group’s adviser, Becky Grant. “She is almost always brimming with useful insights and ideas as to how we can do what we do in a much more organized and colorful manner,” Omar said. 108 A DAY IN THE LIFE serafim Friday afternoon in April, I wrapped up a day of budget meetings, prepara¬ tions for an advisory committee meeting, and a meeting with the Medical Chief of Staff. Into the car, hit the road, and take care of the family! One son to Walker Park J°r a baseball game and the other to the park for soccer practice. I cruise down College Avenue on a Friday afternoon in my auto-drive mode just like every Parent in town. Amazingly, we all get to Walker Park intact and on time with only one comment from my son — had I ever been paid as a racing car driver? ' the sabbatical sounds! wonderful — the stresses of grad school, the papers,! i student life — all sound terrific ' weekend sets instead of three. The team wins as well but we have no time to celebrate because, you guessed it, we ' ve got another trip to Walker Park for soccer. Feeling wind swept and fortified by some real sunshine, Phil and I head to the International Students Organization Annual Banquet and meet up with friends from India, Thailand and the returned Peace Corps group for a fantastic dinner and incredible entertainment. As an ISO guest, we cast our votes for the best and watch the A frican Students Organization celebrate — in no calm manner — the honors for their fashion show and dialogue. Hours on the baseball bench give me time to shake loose of the work-world an d start thinking about how the kids are really doing in school, how I plan to s olve world conflict, and really important stuff like what kind of pizza we can order for dinner. I think about all those students wearing sombreros at Jose ' s on Friday nights and dancing on tables at George ' s. Wary Alice Serafini, director of the University Health Center, stayed busy on the weekends, acting as chauffer to her family a nd managing to squeeze in some valuable time on the tennis courts. As one of the most visible members of the Student Services division, Serafini worked with many student leaders on various Projects and even spent a Weekend having fun with students at the Fall Leadership Conference. About 11 p.m ., our wayward traveler, my husband Phil, returns from Iris latest work trip to Bolivia. As always, his bags include exotic gifts, this time musical instruments. A brief walk on Saturday morning gets my mind in gear to start gardening. Phil takes over as dispatcher and driver while I head out for a team tennis match against rivals from Fort Smith. My partner and I play a great match and contemplate why we can ' t just win the whole thing in two The evening will not end as we head to the Ozark Brewing Co., for more talk with pals. We con trast the life of one frien d on sabbatical as a grad studen t versus the stress of working. The sabbatical sounds wonderful, the stresses of grad school, the papers, student life — all sound terrific. One more day of the weekend actually starts with calm, unscheduled time to read the Sunday papers, actually serve the family a brunch and work in the vegetable and flower gardens. As the day evolves, the telephone starts ringing, times are set for study groups, the boys are in and out of the house and soon we have a clutter of bicycles, tennis racquets, baseball bats, balls, shoes, and rollerblades of all different sizes.

[Croson photos] 122 ASG ELECTIONS he 1995 Associated Student Gov- I eminent general election was marked by progress yet plagued with conflict as more than 2, 000 students waded through a long ballot and chose to pass not one but two student fees, while President-elect Steve Harrelson fought allegations of election code violations. With an overwhelming percentage of support, referendums for both a media fee and a Union fee were passed. The media fee will cost students enrolled in six or more hours $6 per semester, and will provide fee-payers with a Razorback yearbook at no additional charge. The fee also removes both the yearbook and The Arkansas Traveler newspaper from the A-funds process. The Union fee supports a projected $12 million renovation of the Arkansas Union. Students will be assessed $2 per credit hour, up to 12 hours. Every one of the officer’s races, however, was forced to a runoff. In the treasurer’s race, Jennifer Longee defeated Kim Munns. Adria Wilson won the office of secretary over Max Ritchey. And, in the vice president’s race, Paul Morris defeated Jason Cockrum. In undoubtedly the most hotly contested race, Harrelson defeated opponent Hugh Brown. Results of all of these races, however, remained unofficial until the All Student Judiciary Committee investigated complaints that Harrelson had violated the “50-foot rule,” which forbids candidates from campaigning within 50 feet of a building housing a polling site. Allegedly, Harrelson refused to move from his post near Kimpel Hall, even after repeated warnings by Election Commission members that he needed to distance himself from the building. Harrelson argued that the election code, as well as the layout and structure of Kimpel Hall are all confusing and that he believed he was in compliance with what he said Election Commissioner Treva Jackson had told the candidates: that it was permissable to stand 50 feet from the doorway. ASJ, however, found Harrelson guilty. ASG eventually passed a resolution demanding Harrelson apologize before the student senate.

[SABA Photo Service ?( Baily Oklahoman photo] No one is ever likely to wipe away the memories — not the handsome, strong fireman cradling the lifeless doll-like body of little Bailey; the pretty, young mother of Colton and Chase staring wonderingly at her children’s toys and Barney bedspreads; the blank expression on Tim McVeighs face as he left the small Oklahoma town jail. On April 19, hundreds of lives were horrifically and permanently altered when a bomb gutted the Alfred P. Murrah Federal Building in downtown Oklahoma City with the violence of an unleashed demon. Thousands more across the nation were riveted to their television sets, swearing they couldn’t watch anymore, but finding themselves drawn to the plight of the survivors, wondering how they could stand the agony of waiting, waiting, waiting... Individuals were few and fin between who weren’t impacted by the sight of the fragile shell of the building and the fluorescent lights swinging in the stiff breeze of the plains — ugly flags flying in memory over the bodies of 168 innocent Americans murdered, allegedly, at the hands of two fellow citizens. As the dust drifted silently away over the tops of the downtown buildings, a cloud of another sort reared up over the horizon: debates ignited and raged around the memo¬ ries of the victims and their survivors as radio talk show hosts were condemned for their inflammatory calls to action against the federal government. President Bill Clinton would suggest that the FBI be given greater jurisdiction in investigating suspicious organizations such as the Michigan Militia, with which McVeigh had been associated. They, in turn, would staunchly defend their freedoms of expression and assembly. Several weeks would pass before emergency workers would finally clear away enough debris to find the last three bodies, and the building was then imploded, leaving a hole in the sky hardly more comforting than the skeleton of the federal building. If any comfort was to be found, it surely was in the strong and welcoming arms of strangers who rushed to Oklahoma City to help the confused, the scared, the lonely and the wounded. Widespread, massive efforts to raise money and gather supplies were initiated on a moment’s notice; people waited upward of five hours to donate blood. Beneath even the wondrous outpouring of support, however, ran a dark current of unsettling revelation: that indeed our nation is only as strong as its weakest link . . . and the chain had been broken.

I The impact of the Oklahoma City bombing was felt as far away as campus and evoked a wide range of reactions — mischief included. The Alfred P. Murrah Federal Building was destroyed at 9 in the morning; that afternoon, a student called in a bomb threat to the communications department in Kimpel Hall, which was quickly evacuated. “You always hope its a joke, but still, there’s always the idea that it might be real; you just don’t know,” freshman Aime Williams said. A search of the building revealed nothing, but the subsequent tension would not let up for days, due to further events. On the following Monday, a similar bomb threat was made to the HPER building, and in a perverse comedy of errors, a Styrofoam package of eggs left behind after a weekend physics experiment sparked so much concern that a state police bomb expert was called in to investigate the container. Student Mark Gross was arrested on April 27, in connection with the Kimpel Hall bomb threat, and charged with communicating a false alarm. If convicted, he would face up to $1,000 in fines and or one year in jail. On the flip side, many students united in support of the Oklahoma City victims, standing in line to donate blood at a previously scheduled drive on campus and dropping money in jars placed in the Union by the Volunteer Action Center. “After contacting the Red Cross, we were told more than anything they would need funds,” Michelle Etchart, assistant director of Campus Activities, said. “Because it’s so chaotic at the site, it’s hard to really tell what they need.” Close to 200 people donated blood the day the bomb exploded, a total usually reached after two days of a drive. The Center raised more than $1,000. Of more immediate connection to the tragedy were two students with family ties in Oklahoma City. Interviewed by The Arkansas Traveler, sophomore Shannon Blake and junior Brian Fitzgerald said they spent the initial hours after the bombing attempting to contact relatives. “I called my dad as soon as I heard about it,” Blake said.“He works five miles away, and he wasn’t really in any danger. He said his office building shook and he lost four phone lines. He said it felt just like an earthquake.” Fitzgerald said most of his family resides in Oklahoma City and many of them work for the government. “It’s really hard to believe; you don’t really think of anything happening,” he said. “Everybody wants to leave [Oklahoma City] because nothing happens there, and you’ve got something like this that shocks everyone.” thT631 C311 By Alyson Low As the nation mourns the tragedy in Oklahoma City, many students answer the call for help with donations of blood, money and time, while a few pranksters make the costly bomb OKLAHOMA CITY BOMBING 127 follow my lead Immediately following the kick-off pihata breaking ceremony, participants in Celebracion Latina headed for the dance floor.Taking a whirl around the Union Ballroom, Latinos Unidos President Rosie Aguilar and Chancellor Dan Ferritor enjoy a bit of Latin dance fever.

The four-day festival, designed to unite and celebrate Latin American culture, kicked off with a traditional pinata breaking ceremony on Monday, followed by an afternoon of Spanish music and dancing. The series of events heated up with instruction in exciting dances such as the salsa, meringue and other Latin ballroom steps on Tuesday. “The dance had a pretty good turnout,” Rosie Aguilar, Latinos Unidos spokesperson, said. “We showed people how to do Latin dances and then just had a good time and danced.” Motivational speaker and poet Salvador Bacorta spoke Wednesday about mobilizing the Latin American community. And Thursday, the award-winning Latin American film “Cronos,” about vampires, was viewed by a packed audience . Aguilar said she hoped to break through some of the stereotyped expectations of Latin Americans on campus. “Yes, we are Mexicans, Mexican-Americans, and yes, we are educated,” she said. Aguilar, who grew up in El Paso, Texas, where there is a much higher popula¬ tion of Mexican Americans, added, “I didn’t understand (cultural ignorances). I never thought of myself as different until I came to Arkansas ” Latinos Unidos is a registered student organization dedicated to providing a cultural outlet for Latin Americans, as well as increasing Latino awareness in the community.

Traditionally, a time of rejoicing as graduates celebrate with their family and friends a new level of achievement: “Pomp and Circumstance” rings across campus, the stately notes seemingly able to draw graduates up straight as they stand in the wings before the ceremony, broadening their shoulders, swelling their hearts with pride and hope. Words are eloquent, emotions are high, the future is limitless. But like ones wedding day, after the gown is folded, the music dies away, the camera flashes fade out, the corsages are dried and pressed, a certain realization sets in: “Yes, I have been building up to this forever, but what now?” On May 13, University graduates were delivered with diplomas in hand to the real world. But were they prepared for the challenges to come? Renowned architect Peter Eisenman spoke at the general commencement ceremony, reflecting on a new definition of discipline in our society. “Discipline deals with an understanding of values, rather than fact,” Eisenman said. “It concerns such issues as morality, integrity, cultural history and, above all, personal responsibility.” Eisenman told the graduates not to put too much faith in the skills they were taking with them from the University. “College gives you a union card for the future,” he said. “It does not pay the dues.” Helen Robson Walton, who received an honorary doctorate of laws for her volunteerism and beneficence, quoted a favorite phrase: “It is not what you gather in life, its what you scatter in life that tells the kind of life that you have lived.” The list of speakers for the colleges read like an honor roll itself, featuring notables from around the globe such as Hanan Mikhail Ashrawi, commissioner general of the Palestinian Inde pendent Commission for Citizens Rights, who spoke to the Fulbright College of Arts Sciences. As impressive as the list was, however, it was interesting to note the worth of their “words of wisdom” to the 2,000-plus graduates perched on the doorstep of reality. “I was snoozing about ten seconds into the speech,” Jonathan Woolbright, arts and By Alyson Low continued on page 133 130 GRADUATION This is it. As the commencement exercises run their course, graduates are given the time to ponder what lies ahead. Though the list of graduation speakers read like a virtual “Who’s Who,” many graduates said they couldn’t help but tune out the “words of wisdom” and focus on their next step.

[Wichser photo] Inspiring minds. Renowned architect Peter Eisenman delivered the general commencement address, asking students to reflect upon new definitions in society. “Society no longer dictates universal values, giving you the freedom to develop and choose your own values,” he said. “But on the negative side, it is more difficult, more risky and more lonely to have this freedom.” [Wichser photo] It is an honor. One highlight of the all— University commencement was the awarding of honorary degrees.

I wasn’t listening to the speaker.” “I tuned her out after five minutes,” Hether Haddox, another arts and sciences graduate, said. “Everyone that I could see was either talking to each other or looking for their families.” Haddox said she found fault with the relevance ofAshrawi’s topic to the day, noting that it centered around Middle Eastern affairs; she said she wondered to herself“what it had to do with us.” When asked who he would have chosen as a commencement speaker — someone to whom he would have been eager to listen —Woolbright said, “My parents.” Woolbright and Haddox both expressed appreciation for Eisenman’s message, however. Woolbright said he seemed in touch with the graduates, and although Haddox said she was skeptical of what the architect could offer people to whom he had no real ties, she said she liked what he had to say. But what about the journey to the podium for students such as Woolbright and Haddox? Was it fulfilling, relevant, practical, applicable? Woolbright, who received a bachelor of arts in communication, gave a somewhat negative assessment of his experience: “I’m not really qualified to do anything. I’ve got a communications degree, and I can work a video game. “If I could go back, I would probably get a management degree,” Woolbright added. “I ended up taking a lot of electives in management, but it was too late to change my major. “I just wanted to get out of there,” he said. Woolbright signed on as a management trainee at Woodlast Products in Benton, his hometown. Haddox, a broadcast journalism major, was still looking for a full-time position while she kept a part-time position with a local television studio. “It’s not what I expected,” she said, trying to characterize her entry into the work world. “I thought I would get out of school and have a job quickly. I am having more problems than I thought I would. I think if I had come into the department later, 1 would have been better prepared.” She added that she and her classmates came along too early for the new broadcast center in Kimpel Hall to be fully established. “I believed our technology was behind,” she said. “Other universities had students working in actual news stations on campus, while we were still trying to get ours off the ground. I love my professors, but the technology came too late.” Jennifer Fulford, who received her master of arts degree in journalism with an emphasis in sociology, did not attend the ceremonies on May 13, but said that upon finishing her graduate work, she thought about how fortunate she was to have her education. “People who don’t pursue an education and think their lives will be pretty good are in for a tough time,” Fulford said. “No one can take your education away from you — you may lose your job and there may not be many opportunities, but you have your education to fall back on.” Fulford’s education was bolstered by a period of time spent working for the Associ¬ ated Press in several cities. “I was pretty prepared, but then I wasn’t,” she said, adding that the AP motto is “‘a deadline every minute,’ and they mean it. Fulford said that the work with the AP made her the writer she had become, but she also realized that she still had much to learn. “You can’t just quit learning and say,‘I know enough to do my job,”’ she said. “Learning is a lifelong thing.” out wnat about tnejourm So.

The fee, to be implemen ted in the fall of 1995 following an all-student vote, allowed the newspaper to break away from funding provided by the Associated Student Government. The Traveler was the last school newspaper in the Southeastern Conference obligated to apply for funding from student government.

And I try to explain all the things a sorority is, that they cannot see. A sorority is more than letters on a sweatshirt, I say. More than traditional songs, a golden pin, rituals, an obligation or a way of life. A sorority is learning about people, about yourself. A sorority is earning respect from others, as well as yourself. A sorority will not solve all of your problems. But I have made good friends and found confidence there, to help me take life one step at a time. — author unknown S end in the troops...

INDEX • ALPHA PHI S OMEGA 237 8 CHI OMEGA (Eljt (imr a M w M o 1994 ♦ 1995 Unibersittp of Arkansas Valerie McCollum [fa 4 A 1 i mS9 t | ' .-s ' jrr | Blair Slevens Belh Slotoy Chi Omega and the Un ivers ity of A rkansas: A 100- Year Tradition F rom their earliest days, the University of Arkansas and Chi Omega Frater¬ nity have been inextricably linked, each nurturing the other. The campus at Fayetteville provided a fertile ground upon which the fraternity’s five founding members sowed the seeds of Chi Omega in 1895. In return, Chi Omega furnished the University with an organiza¬ tion promoting the highest ideals of woman¬ hood: knowledge, integrity, courage, culture and intelligence. Over its 100 year life span, Chi Omega has bloomed and flourished, becoming the largest women’s fraternity in the United States, with 174 chapters and more than 235,000 initiated members.Though the organization has branched out in all direc¬ tions, the University remains its birthplace and is still home to Psi, the mother chapter. Psi’s early history at the University parallels that of the national organization. In 1895, men’s fraternities were fast becoming established at the University of Arkansas, Ejecting a new element to campus life. Handshakes, passwords and lapel pins s ymbolized the secrets that bound together new brotherhoods with Greek names like Kappa Sigma, Kappa Alpha and Sigma Alpha epsilon. But female students felt excluded w hen their gentlemen callers discussed fraternity life, because there was no such counterpart for women at the University. Four female students changed that state of affairs when they banded together and declared themselves a sorority. Jobelle Holcombe, Jean Vincenheller, Ina May Boles and Alice Cary Simonds chose their colors, w hich they wore as ribbons, and began to te ase the male students that they, too, were Members of a secret society. But their biggest Se cret was that they had no secrets. Soon, though, the group found a sympa¬ thetic friend and enthusiastic supporter in a Young Fayetteville dentist, Dr. Charles Richardson. Hr. Richardson had pledged Kappa Sigma Raternity at Emory and Henry College in Virginia and later, in 1890, had established Ri chapter of Kappa Sigma at the University. An experienced fraternity man, he drafted a rit ual and constitution for the group. The four young women chose their name, Chi Omega, and their colors, cardinal and straw. Dr. Richardson fashioned a Greek letter pin out of scraps of dental gold which the four young women took turns wearing. They then met with Dr. Richardson to consider the constitution, which they adopted on April 5, 1895, in the parlor of Jobelle Holcombe’s family home. On that day, Chi Omega was born. There were five founding members, including Dr. Richardson. Because one of the founders was male, the organization has always designated itself a women’s fraternity. Struggle and growth characterized the early years of Chi Omega, with Psi Chapter supplying most of the alumnae who would serve as leaders of the national organization during its fledgling period. By the 1920s, Chi Omega was well established nationally and Psi was already an institution on the Fayetteville campus. But the chapter house on Church Street was woefully inadequate. Some 30 women students lived in the house which had only six bedrooms, an open sleeping porch, an attic, and incredible as it sounds — one bathroom. The living conditions were no worse than other fraternity and sorority houses at the time, but alumna Miriam Austin Vincenheller, initiated 1898, made construction of a new chapter house her personal crusade. In 1928, through the efforts of Miriam Vincenheller and other devoted alumnae, Psi built the imposing red brick structure that still serves the chapter today. Listed on the National Register of Historic Places and commanding its special corner lot on the crest of the hill, it is conveniently situated across Maple Street from the heart of the University campus. It was the first of the houses actually built for fraternity use and was constructed for $35,000. A second wing of the house was added in 1941 and a third in 1958. Additionally, the house has undergone numerous renovations over the course of the years. The Chi Omega Greek Theater on campus is the structure which most symbol¬ izes the close relationship between Chi Omega and the University. Listed on the National Register of Historic Places, it is a replica of the theater built by Dionysus at the foot of the Acropolis in Athens over 2,400 years ago. The Greek Theater was a gift from the Chi Omega National Fraternity to the University in appreciation of its founding. The newly constructed Greek Theater was dedicated in June, 1930, when Chi Omega was 35 years old. Its fourteen columns forming the backdrop of the stage symbolize the 14 charter members. Carved at the base of the stage are the names of the five founders, and five aisles lead to the concrete seats. There are 87 steps, the number of Chi Omega chapters in 1930. To commemorate Chi Omega’s 100 years, the national fraternity worked with the University to restore the Greek Theater to its original beauty. The fraternity has given much to the University in recognition of its birthplace, including the fountain on the Union Mall, but Chi Omega’s greatest gift has always been its consistently outstanding membership. From the earliest days, when the five founders went to make significant contribu¬ tions to such fields as teaching, the arts and journalism, members in succeeding genera¬ tions have left their marks. The caliber of these women is Chi Omega’s self-perpetuat¬ ing gift to the University and to the world: students who benefit the school, graduates who benefit society.

As the dust began to settle around what was left of the tattered structure, millions of Ameri¬ cans mourned with the vic¬ tims families as they began to wonder how safe our country really is.

If it happens at the University, we have the scoop. Read the award-winning newspaper, The Arkansas Traveler, every Monday, Wednesday and Friday. And, don’t forget to reserve your copy of the Gold Crown and Pacemaker winning Razorback yearbook. F inally.This is it.Just a few moments ago I could barely keep my eyes open as I wrote the last VERY detailed instructions for this book (you never know who’s working at the plant), and now I’m so excited I may wet myself. After almost nine years, this chapter of my life will soon be history. Until now, it seemed like this moment would never arrive. After all, it was supposed to happen three months ago. But, hey, it’s the price you pay for being perfect, and I wouldn’t have it any other way. I suppose now is not the time to analyze my obsessive- compulsive personality... of course, I do have an entire spread to play with here. But, I promised more pictures and less babble, so I suppose I could follow through... Cutting directly to the point, this was one fucked-up book (sorry. Mom). I have never had a project take so much out of me as a person. I must admit that I couldn’t be happier that this is the last time I will ever do this. Going into it, I knew I wanted to make th is the best book ever — go out with a bang, I suppose. It was everyone’s goal to try and top last year’s book. Not a big problem, as I think everyone on staff saw areas in which we could improve. Without a doubt, I think we accomplished these two goals. The only problem was the time it took to accomplish them. Never in our wildest dreams did we imagine how difficult this thing would be. I guess we never stop learning after all. Keeping with the Matt tradition of Matt doing what he does best... running off on a tangent, I’ll go ahead and tell you that, no, I do not plan to dwell on the horrible production nightmare any longer, but I also don’t have any cool Faith Ford stories this time. Sorry. In fact, I really can’t remember much from the past year anymore. I think the vein in my forehead may have something to do with that... Yes, I know I am not making sense — that’s what babble is. Bite my butt. Overall, the year was, well, an experience. The most vivid memory would have to be from the conference in New Orleans last fall. That’s odd, too, because I can’t even remem¬ ber much of what happened. All I know is that Delmar plastic is very useful at Pat O’Brien’s, the cut on my eye eventually healed, I will never again wear my red Warner Bros., shirt for reasons you can imagine, Gary and I are either very lucky or look really tough when we’re toasted and l think Hurricane Matthew will be remem¬ bered long after that Hugo guy is history. Usually, I would keep going, but I’m running out of space here (I’ll do the thanks separately, folks)... Hmminni, nothi ng much else exciting happened in the fall, except of course for the usual vanishing of staff members. What happens to these people? There was one who had quite a nice time at the Stud Pubs Holiday Party and was never heard from again. Sad. We were just afraid of alcohol poisoning. (By the way, I DID indeed have another great year as the sexually harassing Santa at the party!) A more positive and professional moment would have to have been the passage of the Media Fee. Thank you, students! It was incredible to see all of our hard work pay off in the end and to know that we played a major role in preserving this institution. Less than a week after our good news, however, was a little moment in the Marriott Marquis ballroom, now affectionately known as the un-Crowning. CSPA: Bite me! At least I know ACP recognizes true greatness... (don’t mind the self-absorbed moment here)- Looks like I’m out of room. Damn. There’s still the earring, e-mail, Gary’s mid ' life crisis, my summer adventures and oh, so many more things to discuss. Oh well. I suppose this is where the cowboy (hmm?) rides away, or perhaps where the masquerade gets older. Say goodbye... M. EDITOR’S NOTE Greg and Santa are having a little too much fun...

The Razorback has earned three Pacemakers and two Best of Show awards from the Associ- a ted Collegiate Press and three Gold Crowns from the Columbia Scholastic Press Association. I don ' t have nearly enough room to thank the people who have made alljjpf this possible and helped me maintain some resemblance of sanity, but I do have some things to GARY: Despite your “absentee” syndrome, you have managed to give some of the greatest advice and be one of the best teachers I have ever known. Thank you for your patience and your acceptance to do things “my way” (gray letters, anyone?). And most of all, thanks for being a friend. MARIE: You are incredible! Thanks so much for your dedication to this book and to me. You are truly my friend. JANA: Thanks for standing by me and especially for riding out the fall semester — I know it was tough on you and your staff. You will be one of the Razorback’s greatest leaders ever: carpe diem! ALYSON: What can I say? You are a miracle worker! For your tremendous help on this book, I say “thanks,” and for being my friend, I say “you’re cool!” LIZ: One day your name will no longer be in the Razorback staff box... I thank God it didn’t happen while I was here. Thank you so much for your help. See, I told you I’d finish! DOUGLAS: You are still an inspiration to me, and your friendship has meant a lot to me over the past few years. I have a question, “Now what do I do?” GREG: Thanks for being a wonderful colleague and partner. We both saw the worst in this office at times, but we managed to develop something the students and student publications will remember forever. TO MY WONDERFUL STAFF: I am nothing without you! Thanks for the great photographs and stories and everything you did to make this thing happen. Jennifer and Cheri, I could not make it through a day without you. And, Jennifer Cannon, you arrived just in time to save my sanity — thanks. Angie, thanks for your unbelievable dedication to keeping us afloat and “spreading the word.” Good luck with your “new” life! Barbara, thanks for keeping this thing running and my staff paid (otherwise I might be dead!). Even though I never see you anymore, Mrs. Davis, you still have the privilege of being my friend. Heehee! AND: For their support I thank the Board of Publications, Patsy Watkins, Joe Euculano, Lyle Gohn, Sylvia Scott, Gene Fitch, all of my beautiful University Programs Council members (I owe you one!), my instructors (what’s left of them), Jan Childress, Sherri Taylor (the advice is always on target), Laura Widmer, Linda Puntney, Carol Dukelow (sent from Heaven!), Frank Myers and Lori Harris (go, girl!). BARBARA DUNN: I would never have come this far without your guidance and support. Thanks for everything you’ve given me. I love you. DARINDA: Despite the fact that I never call, I will always think of you as my mentor and inspiration in life! I love you. STACY: Okay, so I have a communication problem; it doesn ' t mean you won’t always be my Shmoo! All my love... CHRIS: Everyone has the same point size! Are you happy? Thanks for your friendship and continued support. Don’t let the Carnations die... BRIAN: What Ever! You are tres cool, no matter what Sylvia says, and I’m glad you got to be my friend! Aren’t you? TRACY: Does your nose hurt? Thanks for being one of the very few who under¬ stand what deadline hell is and for playing with me every now and then (ooo, kinky!). STEVE SAVIS: My cyber-pal from Madonna-land who probably has more to do with this late book than any other being besides myself... thanks for the pep talks and for being a true friend. How about an “e?” KYLE and LAURA: You will always be cool and always be my friends! Thank you for your everlasting support of my goofy self. MICHELLE: Words cannot express how much your friendship means to me, and YOU are what enabled me to ever complete this thing. If there is wind beneath my wings, I know exactly where it’s coming from... I love you, and I thank you. MOM: I love you! Thanks for always being there for me. I promise I’ll come home more often now. DAD and JEAN: Thanks for your support throughout this nightmare and for all the early morning car repairs! CELISA: You are so incredible and I love you so much. Thank you for being my sister and my friend. Jeff and Jaden are the two most precious people on Earth. You are so grown up!! ERIN: My sweet little baby! You make me so happy and proud to be your brother; I love you! And to my fans and those I have temporarily misplaced in my mind: Woo Hoo!
