COLLEGE BOWL brains College Bowl taught me In addition to providing programs to entertain students, University Programs also gave students a chance to test that, although I think I am their wit and knowledge. Sponsored nationally by the Association of College smart, there are a lot of Unions-International (ACU-I), College Bowl ' 96 was played Nov. 4-7. Many teams congregated in the Union Theatre people out there that are to compete against one another in a friendly round of questions and answers. College Bowl was a 5-on-5 game smarter than me. with teams representing independent groups, residence halls and Greek organizations. - Jean Biondi This game broke the usual quiz bowl stereotype. Anyone, whether they knew it all or were just looking for a good time, could be sponsored. With a simple applica¬ tion, teams were able to participate against each other just for the thrill of it or in an attempt to win a trip to the regional All-Star Tournament in Dallas. First-place team House of Pain represented both honors residence halls and was awarded the opportunity to send two players to regionals. The second-place team, The Purple People Eaters, was awarded the chance to send one player and an alternate to the tournament. The third— -place team was allowed to send one alternate. Other winners received gift certificates from Hastings and Campus Bookstore. Many students took College Bowl seriously and looked forward to its annual arrival. College Bowl taught me that, although 1 think I am smart, there are a lot of people out there that are smarter than me, freshman Jean Biondi said. But watch out for next year because we ' ll be back and better than ever. It ' s also good that College Bowl is designed for annual competition rather than any other way. It somehow seems more prestigious that way. Although I love the game and sport that comes along with it, 1 would rather win once a year than once a week. It seems like a bigger accomplish¬ ment, Biondi said. College Bowl gave interested students a good opportu¬ nity to show off their everyday knowledge of certain sub¬ jects, such as mathematics, history, literature and current world events. Even if they did not win, competitors had a whole year to prepare and study for College Bowl ' 97. — Elizabeth Carter 30

BLACK HISTORY MONTH ride in one ' s ' They passed the baton to you and me. Many of you are the first generation of educated people. It ' s not merely enough to say I ' m going to get a good job. - Reverend Rickey Hicks history During Black History Month in February, students cele¬ brated with a wide variety of events. Many activities were held throughout the month to commemorate the struggle and celebrate the history of African-Americans. Although the annual Dr. Martin Luther King, Jr. banquet was in low attendance by snow and ice, the Reverend Rickey Hicks of Little Rock delivered an oratory on Dr. King to more than 100 students. Dr. King was not just an African-American hero, he was a black man who was an American hero. King made America better, Reverend Hicks said. Reverend Hicks challenged those in attendance to fulfill the vision of Dr. King and other civil rights movement leaders. They passed the baton to you and me. Many of you are the first generation of educated people. It ' s not merely enough to say I ' m going to get a good job. The Black Student Association presented its annual Legacy Award to, recognize those who have contributed to the struggle for equality, peace and justice, BSA President Kevin Dedner said. The 1997 recipient was Ozell Sutton. Sutton, as an aide to Winthrop Rockefeller, became the first black gubernato¬ rial staff member in the South since Reconstruction. Sutton also worked closely with the 1996 honoree, Daisy Gaston Bates. To help celebrate Black History Month, the University was also very active. The Union and University Museum featured exhibits on the West African rain forests and African art. Several speakers visited campus to commemorate the month, and Black History Month concluded with a concert by jazz pianist James Williams and former members of the Boy ' s Choir of Harlem. - C.H.
