ntertainment at the University Eand in Athens comes in many forms. Ranging from comedi- ans to motivational speakers, visitors to our campus evoke a full range of emotions. Through the efforts of several University offices and organizations, students have the opportunity to see a variety of per- formers and speakers up close. Former U.S. Surgeon General Dr. Joycelyn Elders, President Clinton ' s chief advisor George Stephanopolos, comedi- an Carrot Top, and author Pat Conroy are just a few who came to campus this year. The Classic Center hosted performers including Tori Amos, Paula Poundstone and Harry Connick, Jr. as well as broadway productions such as The Who ' s Tommy. No matter what your taste in entertainment, it can without a doubt be satisfied in Athens.

On November 25, President Charles Knapp announced his decision to resign from the Uni- versity and move to Washing- ton, D.C, to serve as the head of the Aspen Institute. During the past 1 years, President Knapp has worked to improve the academic repu- tation of the University in addition to in- creasing research expenditures and student diversity. His administration has seen the introduction of the HOPE Scholarship and increased admissions standards. Among other changes that President Knapp has been involved in are the hiring of new head coaches for the football and men ' s basketball teams and the construction of new facilities including the Ramsey Stu- dent Center and Dean Rusk Hall. We wish President Knapp great success in his future endeavors.
