Transportation is an immense ime part of a commuteris life. Commuters who reside farther away usually have to battle with the never ending traffic jams. Other disadvantages of being a commuter included not socializing as much as possible and not being able to just get away from it all, when one has a long day. Though i there may have been definite disadvantages at times, according to junior Jennifer Romo, commuter meant having more free time to yourself?

Another trend among students was the athletic look, which probably made the stockholders of Addidas, Nike, Reebok, and even Evian very happy.

Students at the University of Miami have devised various ways of combating their immediate problem. After surveying the premises, one was able to see the different modes of transportation - driving, motorcycle and bicycle -riding, rollerblading, skateboarding, and riding the metrorail. There were many students who rode the metrorail and transferred to the universityis shuttle. However, there was nothing speedy about the Hurry Cane.

Of course there were jobs on campus, but with not everyone having Federal Work-Study, jobs were not easily found. Even with these employment opportunities on campus, other on-campus students and commuters look for jobs in the surrounding city of Coral Gables and some even ventured farther to Miami.

What could professors of introductory courses do to make sure each student understood the subject? The students didn't seem to have any questions, but what if they did and were just intimidated by such large class size? According to Dr. Michael Gaines, Chairman of the Biology Department, the classes were so large that it was up to the teachers to establish the ilearningl atmosphere. They needed to be creative to accomplish that. One thing that we have done for Biology 150 is that we've created small workshops so students could work together, in groups of ten, solving problems related to the course material.

Since that time it has been able to expand and become more accessible to students. Recently, Michael J. Gage became the interim director of this student facility. According to Mr. Gage, The role of the center is to help students bring together academic training and personal interests into the world of work. The Toppel Career Planning and Placement Center was available to all undergraduate students and alumni. lt offered resources like a Career Library for students that contained information on all facets of the career planning process. There was also a computer lab for use by students to search job web sites, colleges, or the EASY system, for student jobs. This year, Resume Expert has been upgraded for use on the Web. Now called the iiWeb Resume Writer, this program became more accessible to students remotly wherever they utilized the internet, and more accessible to potential employers once the resume entered into the system. During the academic year, Toppel sponsored two major Career Fairs, one during the Fall semester and one during the Spring semester. Companies attended to represent their fields which gave students a great opportunity to network as well as inquire about the company itself. Many career workshops and forums were held during the year to give WILLIAM LAI students the opportunity to speak - directly to employers and to learn what they are looking for in a candidate. Students also obtained information about placement into internships if they seeked experience and training in their field of interest. Mr. Gage commented that the facility as a whole was very excited about the potential in the student body and whatToppel could provide. iiWe are on the verge of bringing great things to students at the University.

Although Richard Walker was not exactly new on campus, the position was slightly different from his previous position as Associate Dean of Students. Taking over the new position was an easy, but exciting transition forWalker. He could always question the previous Director of Student Life, Dr. Patricia Whitley, if he had any difficulty with adjusting. The interaction that he received from students was what motivated and challenged him. til love working at the University, Walker said. tilt is very broad in perspective and I look toward to working with other areas. One thing that he would like to start doing is challenging the staff to iithink out of the box. He believed that there were always more than one way to accomplish a goal, and people should not be afraid to try something new. He would also like to see more creativity in terms of student life and the University Center. nl would love to see us create a Student Involvement Center where we can house 50 or 60 student organizations, Walker said. tThe University Center is the center of campus. Its a place that everyone walks through at least once a LEVEL day and we should use that fact more effectively? Ultimately, Richard Walker would like to obtain his Doctorate degree in education. After accomplishing ' this great feat, he would like to become the Vice President of Student Affairs. If he pursues this with the ' same amount of dedication that he has given both the students and the university, he just might be our next Vice President.

Construction, program development, and faculty expansion were among the changes that have taken place recently. This year we were fortunate enough to gain a new dean, Kumble R. Subbaswamy, in the College of Arts and Sciences. Although new to the Miami campus, he was far from a novice at dealing with academic policy. Before arriving to the University of Miami, he worked as a chair for HOLLY CUKIEF? Taking the time to speak to freshman biology major Heather Weeter, Dean Subbaswamy discusses the importance of time management using his job as an example. As the Dean ofArts and Sciences, he must implement a lot of planning in order to achieve the high standards he has set for the school. the Department of Physics and Astronomy at University of Kentucky. The ambition that brought him to Florida was a valuable tool that the College of Arts and Sciences will benefit from. When asked what his plans were for making adjustments in the curriculum and overall management of his school he said, nWe need to reexamine previous decisions and figure out how we can do things better. The curriculum has to be dynamic and we must constantly monitor and revise it. One of the ways he suggested improving course work was by exposing students to more than just lectures and standard laboratory work. tThey need to be participating along side of these scholars and experiencing things first hand, Subbaswamy said. Because it was Dean Subbaswamyis first year, a lot of his time was spent organizing and planning for the future. He summarized his plan succinctly, My goal is simply stated. I want to make this Arts and Sciences program the best program in a national private university.

This very prestigious national award is given to those who have distinguished achievements in philosophy and can communicate philosophical ideas to the public. Her writing career began after her Ph.D. thesis, Deviant Logic, which was later published in 1974. In 1996, Haackls writings were featured with 17 other philosophers in a book entitled Women Philosophers. Her work is well-known worldwide, and it has been translated into Spanish, Italian, Russian, and Chinese. Throughout the course of her lecturing, she has had the opportunity to travel to such places as Australia, Finland, Spain, Germany, and Switzerland. Since Haack has been writing, her style has changed a great deal. In the 19705 she was known as a philosopher of logic; the 19805 dealt with questions in the theory of knowledge; and presently she has written about the ethical and political issues, the relation of philosophy to literature, trends in feminine philosophy, and understanding what is distinctive about scientific knowledge and inquiry. tiA lot of philosophy is written in flat, deadpan style? Haack says, ttbut I am trying to write in a way any educated reader can understand? Not only was Susan Haack an excellent writer, she also had a great reputation as a lecturer. Her most recent series, which bore the same title as her forthcoming book, Defending Science-Within Reason. explored the role of society in science and of science in society. These lectures brought her writing and speaking talents together. Although Haack was not sure what the future holds for her, she was considering writing a book about a topic which has held her interest for quite some time, American Pragmatism. Time can only tell what new philosophical theories will evolve from the mind of Susan Haack. By Shawn McRae ARTS 8t SCIENCES FACULTY Peter Storer Auditorium.

The program was a ucooperative arrangement between the University of Miami and three elementary and secondary schools where teacher educators and teachers-in-training work together, according to Dr. Arlene Brett, the Acting Chair of the Teaching and Learning Department. Traditionally, undergraduate courses were taught onscampus. However, this partnership allowed practicing teachers to play a role in training the students directly. As a requirement in the education department, University of Miami students are required to enroll in aTechnology Lab at West Labis media center and work with faculty members. With Flamingo Elementary as an inclusion school, Miami students were able to work with disabled children. til think this is a much better experience than sitting in a lecture hall being told what it is like to teach children. At Westlab Elementary we help the teachers and students and observe how they interact in a learning environment, said Yoko Matsui.

As familiar as such statements may have sounded, there were no other words which could describe the motives behind her five-year quest for a way to bring a few delightful moments to her Alzheimerls-stricken mother. Although most take their ability to take a refreshing shower for granted, Theresa Gessels mother had been ill and Theresa could no longer put her in the bath or shower. It was then when Professor Gesse started to think about a nBath Chaifl which would allow bedridden patients feeling cleaner and healthier. The Bath Chair is a portable, reclining chair with adjustable legs and a basin that can be filled with water and drained, through a hose, back into a sink or tub. Made of smooth fiberglass for strength and comfort, the chairs basin allows the bather to be submerged in six to eight inches of water. I had a friend who helped me draw sketches of the prototype of the chair. My first goal was to make a chair in a durable material for the least cost. I think thatis the key for less expensive products--doing something that can be used over and over again and with more than one use, Theresa Gesse stated. Although the official U.S. Patent of the Bath Chair only arrived after a lengthy legal process in July 1997, Theresa encouraged the pursuits of other inventors by suggesting that they shouldnit give up. Keep working on your inventions. Inventing. doesnlt happen overnight. Keep searching for someone to help you. There is a lot of help out there. You can go to medical product publications or workshops? Theresa Gessels Bath Chair has been featured on national television, in The Miami Herald, and also in the Veritas magazine. RememberTheresa Gessels name, because by the time this yearbook is published, her label could be all over medical supplies stores. And to think that all got started when she decided to help a single individual.

All rushees were to meet in the Flamingo Ballroom at 5 PM. where they received their bids. As each woman was handed an envelope, she joined in the circle of rushees and Rho Chiis. The woman held onto their envelopes while they took the Panhellenic oath. Then each of them opened their envelopes and found which sorority they now belonged to. The rushees then came down to the patio where the sorority women anxiously awaited. Each Rho Chiis sorority was revealed to the rushees. Each rush group was then called to the middle of the patio, and the rushees rushed over to their new sororities to be greeted with smiles, hugs, T-shirts, balloons, candy and other presents. After, the last rushee went to her sorority, group pictures were taken followed by sisterhood events. It was a very exciting day.

ST AY I N A '0 AT mvery fall semester the American Institute of Architecture Students lAlAS sponsors the annual cardboard boat race. This fall, eleven cardboard boats were designed by many different architecture students, attempted to cross Lake Osceola without sinking. These students usually spent many long nights in their studios drawing and building models. During the final week, they stayed up all night building the actual boat, making it as waterproof as possible. On October 24, 1997, all boats met at the School of Architecture courtyard for the pre-race judging by the schools faculty. There they chose nthe Gauntanamera as the most creative design and der gimp boat as the most innovative. After the judging, the crew members carried their floating creations towards the Rathskeller, where the race began. Not only did the crews struggle to get in their boats, but once inside, keeping the water out became the most serious concern. Despite all of the other groups hilarious tribulations, nder gimp boat took the early lead and never looked back.

Instead of a week in Cancun or Panama City, participants are sent to volunteer sites all over the continental United States. This year the sites have expanded and some of the sites are Turtle Cove tLA , Smoky Mountains tNC , Damascus tVAl, Detroit MI , Minneapolis tMNl, San Francisco tCAl, and Seattle tWAl. Each location, which had about ten participants and a site leader, dealt with a different social or environmental issue such as native plant restoration, hunger and homelessness, youth violence, urban and rural poverty, and AlDSlHlV. The mission of Alternative Spring Break is to provide a meaningful and enjoyable experience by immersing participants in a different way of life, challenging stereotypes, and providing immediate relief with a potential for long-term solutions, in order to foster a lifelong commitment to social action. There is a strict no alcohol and drug policy that participants agree upon before embarking on the trips. ASB forms bonds between participants within each site and everyone comes back with a larger knowledge of their particular issue and also with a feeling of accomplishment. By Sandy Dang i + erXK..

Volunteer Services is the main umbrella organization for about 20 other small volunteer organizations. Organizations such as Link, Best Buddies, and FunDay can be found inside this office, located in the University Center. One of the activities that Volunteer Services sponsored in the Fall of this year was ttBeach Clean Upii, where students from the University attended. VSC also put together the Homecoming Hurricanes Help the Hometown, a day in which students got together in groups and went throughout Miami to volunteer on various projects. Volunteer Services always provided the best volunteer opportunities to the students who wanted to help. Whether it was planting trees or cleaning the beautiful beaches of Miami, there was always some fun activity that students could do for the weekend to improve the community. By Paola M.

Its members consist of novice-level athletes who will have the opportunity to go on to compete on the varsity team. The goal of the Menls Rowing Club is to rebuild and strengthen the menls rowing program. This group of dedicated men were the ultimate amateur sportsmen as they practiced six days a week for two hours each day. They were responsible for their transportation to and from competitions as well as practices. Scholarships were not offered to any member since it is a club sport.

ROWING CL UB FEATURE s NsrXK ?...JQ ltseems like everyone in Miami likes to watch movies. It was the Cinematics Arts Commission, who made seeing these must see flicks, possible on our campus. Every semester, the CAC had students fill out a survey on what movies they would like to see. After reviewing the surveys, they then rented the selected movies from a collegiate licensing company and presented them to the students. This year, the CAC had a record number of sneak previews including uThe Game? tRed Corner? A Life Less Ordinary? and tEveis Bayou. CAC obtained their sneak previews, according to Marc Jacobsen, the current advisor of the organization, because tithe movie studios work with different advertising agencies who then in turn contact us. The Cinematic Arts Commission, in addition to showing movies, works with other UM organizations to supplement special events such as Coming Out Week. According to Matthew Stein, itWe dont just show movies, it is much more than that. Our organization oo-programs with other organizations such as Bacchus, the Womenis Resource Center, the Black Student Union and others. Cosford Cinema and Friday Flicks at the UC International Lounge were free of charge to students with a valid Cane Card. This value is an offer no one can refuse, and this is exemplified by our record attendance this semester? Stein said.

JVE FROM 9 O 5 WV J M 'rattooing, body piercing, the Gay Lesbian Bisexual Community, and volunteering may seem like random subjects at first, but they all have one thing in common. As a nonprofit organization, the University of Miami campus radio station WVUM 90.5 covered these topics and many more. As the station provided public services to the local community listeners, it also touched on hot topics on WVUMis newest talk show, Live Wire. This show, their latest endeavor, was broadcasted every Sunday from 12:30-1 :00 pm. WVUM added this new show to its other regular broadcasts such as live coverage of Big East tournaments, U.M. home baseball games and both mens and womens home basketball games. WVUM also had students who disc jockey in alternating shifts, which made the late night shifts much easier to deal with. Often there was a themed type of music played each shift such as ska, new age, Gothic or pdechno. In addition to Live Wire, they also had a sports talk show. The hosts of both talk shows were chosen by a combination of taped auditions and interviews. Live Wirels hosts for its first year were Sprite Crawford and Hannah Hausman. Their job as the hosts is to inform U.M. and the community, of student activities and volunteering opportunities as well as discuss topics for pure entertainment, Public Service Director Suzette Espinosa said. Throughout the upcoming years, the staff at WVUM hopes to increase the amount and variety of public services that they offer to the listeners and Live Wire is a step in the right direction.

It is because of this growing population that G.B.L.C., or Gay, Lesbian, Bisexual Community, was formed. When it first began seven years ago, GLBC was a small, secretive group that met in the masters apartments and was constantly moving. Today the group has a large number of members and meets quite frequently. As a way to celebrate their sexuality, Coming-Out Week was held October 6- 10. This week long celebration mixed awareness and education through the use of films, discussions and spreading general knowledge. uPeople saw each other putting their prejudices aside, it definitely had a positive impact, Karen Williams President of GLBC said. In the future, GLBC hopes to extend their resources to the large scale that some universities have as well as work on their Gatekeeper program. With positive programs such as GLBC, students had a better chance of mixing with peers who are dealing with similar issues and meeting new friends both at the same time.

Well, for a group i of students at the University of Miami, Attitude is a big headache. Ever since October of 1996, Katia Raina and a group of students who had never met each other before had been trying to launch a new literary magazine - entitled Attitude. After almost a year, in September oil 1997, the group was finally able to introduce the first issue to the campus population. The idea of a literary magazine came from Katia, ; who realized that not everybody at the University oft Miami is interested in reading fashion or swimsuit magazines. So, after she contacted a couple of friends, and obtained funding from the Student Activity Fee: Allocation Committee, her idea was about to beI materialized. After the funding issue had been aooompiishedL Raina wondered where she would get the artwork to fill up the pages of Attitude?

E Lu Q 2 o :1 33 Lu 3:: Q xl ORGANIZATIONS F 1 ST RAW i-ll I0 I I'E I'EJ'XRI I he art of fencing is one of the oldest modern sports that is still around today. It has been a club at the University of Miami for over two decades. One might assume that the club was for veterans only, but quality instruction at all levels is offered. This year nearly seventy percent of the club was comprised of new members eager to learn the sport. Nicholas DeGrazia, one of the new members this year, said Fencing is a great workout and fun at the same time. It is exciting because you are always up against someone different. You have to apply both physical and mental skills. The challenge in fencing is trying to guess what the opponent will do next. President Justin Griffis described it as a game of mental skills. The hardest part is focusing and trying to pick up on what the opponent does. For example, he may blink before he lunges or look in a certain direction. If you can figure things like that out it makes you taster.u The fencing season ran from September to July and there were about twenty tournaments per season. The competitions had both individual and team categories for men and women. The club hoped to bring its four experienced members to some of the regional competitions throughout the year even though the club did not emphasize the competition aspect of the sport. Most of the practice time was dedicated to training all of the members by having them fence against each other. By doing this type of practice, the members learned mental discipline and physical development.

Where else were you able to hear performances from Carla Hall, Diane Ward, Clambake 2000, Johnny Dread, and El Duende for -absolutely nothing? It wasnt the same kind of music every week, but different performers that included reggae, rock, Latin, rap, and alternative. This variety made it enjoyable for as many as could fit on the patio. Not only was this a great opportunity for students to relax and IiSten to a few tunes after hours of droning teachers, but it was an excellent chance for artists to play for prospective fans and get their music out to people who may buy their albums. If you ever had any free time on Friday afternoons, it was definitely recommended that you stopped by the patio to see what everyone was so excited about.

For the rest of the day, there was live music and entertainment and the international clubs under COISO set up booths where there were cultural displays, typical food being sold and had information on the particular country. Ona Ngnoumen, President of COISO, thought UN Day was a success because iiparents, students, faculty, administrators mingled together for this event.

P.H.A.T.E., or Promoting Health Awareness Through Education, was a club that sought to promote the seven dimensions of wellness: occupational, spiritual, social, intellectual, physical, environmental, and educational. In an effort to balance the body, mind, and spirit, P.H.A.T.E. promoted one area of wellness each month of the school year. Through the use of flyers and handouts, they were successfully involved with UN Day, Hurricanes Help the Hometown, A Week For Life, and many other activities. They even made excursions throughout thesemester to go kayaking, attend cooking classes, and have Wellness dinners. The club,s original name was D.E.C.O., having its meaning unknown, i changed to P.H.A.T.E. in 1989. When the adviser, Patty Pryz, began in 1985, she introduced the Wellness Expo.

Close to 400 University of Miami students welcomed 210 people with mental disabilities to campus for a day of activities and friendship on its seventeenth anniversary, February 14,1998. FunDay is an annual event held during the Spring semester to bring college students and special citizens together. It has been a positive event that challenges the myths and stereotypes by promoting awareness. Throughout the day, college buddies were able to play games, listen to music, watch cartoons, and make arts 8t crafts with a special citizen one-on-one. The events of the day also included dunk a buddy, dancing in the limbo, snowecones, miniature golf, and building miniature roman temples out of blocks. Participants were entertained by the Legacy dancers, Hurricane cheerleaders, and movies at the Rathskellar. Participants also traveled throughout the day wearing ethnic masks they created, to Europe, Africa, and Italy. At the end of the day, everyone united together for a barbecue on the UC Patio and had the opportunity to interact with each other. iiLove Around the World ,seemed like the perfect theme for this day mixed with smiles and laughter from everyone.

M megacy was a campus based dance group open to both men and women. The group practiced two times a week with each practice consisting of a dance class and a choreography portion. The members used modern dance and jazz in their routines. While many students did have dance backgrounds, experience was not required. Performances on campus this year included a Showcase for Chaos, the Wellness Expo, and FunDay. Legacy had opportunities to perform at the Medical Campus as well. The group has hopes to branch out and perform at elementary and middle schools in future years to try to keep the excitement about dance alive. By Christy Hodgson i i I . i i x ORGANIZATIONS MARISOL SANTIESTEBAN r0 0! or EBAN 'I he Dancing Ibis was a relatively new organization on campus. In its second year, this group worked to bring back the art of one-on-one dancing through ballroom dancing. The group focused on Salsa in a style called uruida de casinoi, or casino wheel. The group met every Friday evening for a few hours to teach and to be taught. Those members who were more skilled and more comfortable were able to advance in part by teaching others. The dancers started with the basics and were free to move at their own pace. It was a great way to have fun, meet people, and relieve stress. The dancers of the Dancing Ibis were spotlighted during the closing ceremonies of Hispanic Heritage month. They choreographed and performed a Salsa routine for the fifteen minute spot they were given. Not only did club members enjoy themselves, but the organization became more visible on campus. The group hoped to continue by learning other styles of dance including the Rumba, Cha Cha, Fox Trot, and Waltz. The Dancing Ibis wants to expand their horizons by competing in amateur Ballroom dancing competitions in future years.

ORGANIZATIONS isz WILI s5!- JIN t I I'I V'rXY I he Student Government has always been a m bridge of sorts between the students of the University of Miami and action. This academic year was no exception as the Student Government worked diligently to listen to the desires of the students and act on those ideas to create results. Student Government has always worked to increase campus spirit. This year was met with the same enthusiasm. The spirit was kicked off with Canefest. It was not very highly attended, but it was a start. The pep rally for the first home football game brought out more Hurricane Spirit. The Student Government tried to make everyone more aware of our spirit call, the tU made with the thumbs and index fingers. Finally, the Student Government helped to bring back an organization called Stormfront by obtaining financial support through the athletic department. This is a group of hard-core Hurricane fans who attend every home game of every sport. Another important endeavor for which the Student Government can proudly claim responsibility is Fall break. This has been high on the list of student demands for several years, and it was finally approved by Senate. It will be a Friday in the fall 1998, and after evaluation, it might increase in length depending on its success.

Carolyn, a student from Chicago, Illinois, has been an avid horse rider for most of her life. After getting started at the age of eight years old, it has been a love affair ever since. When Carolyn arrived at the University of Miami, she realized she could not go without riding for such a long time. She decided to set up a stand at the club fair and see if there was interest in an equestrian club. To her own surprise there was a big response and she got to work right away. The main focus of the equestrian club was to give students that are interested in horses, a local link to stables and regular riding. Students learned sportsmanship, how to ride, as well as how to groom and take care of the horses. Carolyn had been in contact with the Somersfield Farm and was able to set up a deal with them for lessons and other training. They even provided new horses just for the club. All in all, Buckley was able to continue what she loves to do while meeting new people in the process. It just goes to show what a little determination can accomplish.

The club consisted of twenty-two traveling members as well as six others, all of whom were very dedicated as they practiced three times a week. The semester kicked off for the men with the Third Annual Duane Schultz Soccer Tournament the first weekend of November. Of the six teams competing, Miami finished in second place. In addition to the practices, both indoor and out, each Sunday tNovember through Junei the club played in the Gold Coast Soccer League. This is a league of mostly collegiate level players from the Tri-county area. During the Weekend of November nineteenth through the twenty second, the club competed in the National ClubTournament at Georgia Southern University. Miami was among eighteen other teams from around the country, and unfortunately, lost to the defending national champions in the quarter finals. Although the club didnit always finish on top in competitions, they enjoyed the thrill of the game. The team hopes to have more people interested in future years to increase the awareness of the sport. By Christy Hodgson Eric Louchard takes the ball and runs to score for Miami.

The teams in each residential college set out not only to win for themselves, but also for their college as a whole. After a long weekend of student competition, i all ended with the rugged tug-of-war event. After the points were tallied, the winners were then determined and announced. For the fourth time in a row, Stanford Residential College took the prize as the overall winner. The overall men's prize went to Shindig Samurai from Pearson Residential College, while the Bond Girls from Eaton Residential College won the overall women's prize. The University of Miami kicked off the weekend of SportsFest 98 with a scavenger hunt. There were 19 events played during the entire weekend, ranging from swimming to horseshoes. Sometimes the competition was a little too serious, but in the end the events built sportsmanship as well as friendships.

How often did you hear that? Not often enough. Unless you happened to make it over to West Palm every Saturday night dressed in fishnet stockings, rubber gloves, black lipstick and high heels to match. Monday night's showing of the The Rocky Horror Picture Show brought some of the more interesting characters the University had to offer out of their catacombs.

Established in 1986, Mir, among its many objectives, was to be a site where cosmonauts and astronauts can combine their efforts to conduct important scientific and technological research. The problems started in February, when one of the two canisters of backup oxygen exploded, causing a fire that nearly burnt a hole in the aluminum hull. In March, the crew lost its main source of oxygen, as Mirs main oxygen generators failed to operate. A major collision in June left Mir at half power because of the loss of its solar panels. In August, the one working oxygen generator stopped working, causing its occupants to go on backup oxygen canisters, once again. Despite all the problems that have occurred on Mirthis past year, the United States and Russia have decided to go ahead with their plans to begin construction of the International Space Station. By Chai Park WAS THERE FF 0 M I n July 1997, the Pathfindertransmitted images back to earth which gave the scientists at NASA stirring portraits of the Mars surface and some equally stunning images of a Martian sunset. Sojourner, the rover, sent the Pathfinder's team of rock experts startling data that seemed to indicate that Mars and Earth have much more in common than they had previously thought. Among the most provocative theories is the one which suggests that perhaps Mars once had shifting tectonic plates, like the ones on Earth. The Pathfinder gave the scientists at NASA valuable and, in some cases, surprising information on the planet that had previously remained untouched since the 197013. In accordance with its new itcheaper, better, fasterlt creed, the engineers at NASA kept the cost of the Pathfindermission low, without having to sacrifice too much.

By Michelle Denise Golden Gianni Versace Murdered lrhis August the fashion world was rocked by yet another tragedy. The massive outpouring of black apparel from all aspects of the industry was the last trend inspired by Gianni Versace. So where were the worlds best dressed headed? The funeral of not only their favorite designer but to many, a dear friend. Versacels accomplishments included not only thousands of incredible fashions, but also praise of linking the entertainment and fashion industries together which undoubtedly changed the way fashion lines are now presented. The great misfortune is that perhaps this life of prestige and riches was what in the end, made himself a target for murder. This killer of this well known artist, was Andrew Cunanan. The Federal Bureau of Investigation believed that Cunanan was a gaudy and pretentious man craving attention, who considered killing a performance of art. The clues Cunanan left behind seemed too obvious to be an accident and began to reveal to the FBI his strong desire for attention. After a long search, Andrew Cunanan was found dead on a house boat, having committed suicide. The fashion and entertainment world, still unsettled with Versacels untimely death, was left with a little consolation, knowing Cunanan would kill no more.

By Natasha Chattergoon NATIONAL NEWS CURRENT E VENTS Details of Princess Diana's Will revealed On Monday, March 2nd, 1998, lawyers said that the bulk of Diana's $35.6 million estate - $21.3 million after taxes - will be held in trust in equal amounts for her two sons, 15-year-old Prince William and Prince Harry, 13. Each will inherit his share on his 25th birthday. Other beneficiaries are Diana's 17 godchildren and her former butler, Paul Burrell, who received $82,000. The princess's wedding dress, her wardrobe and so-called intellectual property rights are left for charitable purposes or for the benefit of her sons. The intellectual property included copyright, trademarks and resulting royalties from the authorized commercial use of her picture or name, on mementos, for example. Most of the princess's estate comes from the estimated $28 million divorce settlement she won from Prince Charles. The executors of the estate are: Diana's mother, Frances Shand Kydd; her sister, Lady Sarah McCorquodale; and the Bishop of London, the Rt. Rev. Richard Chartres. By Sarah Morgan Baaaa...... Sheep Cloning When Dolly the miracle lamb, was introduced to the world in February 1997, she was met with both criticism and praise.

For now, the world can only wait and see what innovation science comes up with next. Many countries, including the United States, are yet uncertain as to how they will handle the cloning controversy. By Chai Park Farewell to England's Rose M PHOTO SERVICE D uring the early hours of August 31st, 1997 Princess Diana of Wales, 36 years old, died in a car crash in a Paris tunnel at Place de lea. Along with her, boyfriend Dodi al-Fayed, 42 years old, the son of billionaire Egyptian owner Mohamed al-Fayed of Londonls well-known Harrodls department store. Later an autopsy on the driver, Henri Paul, revealed that he was intoxicated and driving under the influence, three times over the alcohol limit. Dianais bodyguard, Trevor Rees-Jones, 29, survived while sitting in the passenger seat wearing a seatbelt. He recalled the last few minutes after the accident. I have had flashes of a female voice calling out in the back of the car. First it's a groan. Then Dodi's name is called. I don't remember if it is over and over again. But I do remember a voice calling out Dodi's name. And that can only be Princess Diana's voice, Rees-Jones was quoted as saying. Almost immediately after transmitting pictures of what once was a blue Meroedes-Benz, broadcasters started to mention that the paparazzi, commercial photographers who earn their living by taking private pictures of public figures, could have caused the accident since there were about seven of them following the Mercedes in BMW motorcycles. The motorbikes were in front of us, not behind us. They were nonstop taking pictures as we were driving. Then Iheard Diana's voice. It was Diana who asked if we could go a bit quicker It was getting worse. The flashes were blinding me God knows how Henri Paul was coping, Rees-Jones quoted. This brief suggestion of a media which was capable of destroying a celebrity emotionally and also physically sent the whole world in uproar and disgust. Should there be tougher laws to regulate paparazzi activity? Would celebrities still be stars without the media? Why are these seemingly innocent free-lance photographers ignoring media ethics? Common answers to such questions perhaps will never be reached. However, Dianals death awoke in each being a frightening sense of mortality and human fragility. After all, if a princess can die so tragically and suddenly, what awaits the rest of humanity? While depression and sadness marked her ending, Princess Dianals life was remembered for her heartfelt volunteering and selfless outpouring of love.

By Michelle Denise Golden Terrible Effects of El Niiio 10 NOV 97 COURTESY NASA t JPL t CALTECH n early January 1997, an ice storm that cracked tree limbs and glazed roads, knocked out power to millions of people in the Northeast and Canada, while the same huge system brought violent weather and flooding to the South. Stories like these are examples of what could be found in all newspapers across the eastern states. El Nino was blamed for many of the years weather phenomenons. In El Nino, the warmer water pushes a southern jet into a more northerly path. This brings warm, moist air up the east coast and keeps the Canadian cold air from going as far south as it would resulting in more rainfall to the south. Some scientists believe that even though the weathers has been terrible in many areas, the worst is yet to come.

So, what do you think? Does the 1998 IBIS Yearbook meet your expectatIons9 If it were not for the IBIS who compla on this one, ..... student apath This y as ourtheme. S were: group p sport, senior fea ures and reflec Ions, a student ga ery, a current events section with coverage of events on campus that occur late in the year such as sportsfest, and an index. A major change for the m was the retirement of Raymonde Bilger IFinancial Advisor for the Hurricane and m 1969-19971. Bob DuBord took over as Financial Advisor and has done a heck of a job this year. The staff and myself could not have asked for a better replacement. Bob has been a valuable asset to us, especially when we ran into a couple of problems, he guided us in the right direction. 1 Thanks, Bob! One of the obstacles that frustrated us were the delay of our two new computers, software, CD-recorder, large-format printer, and flatbed scanner. Our older software and computer could not handle the high resolution images that we were scanning. Our staff was in limbo until the first week of October. Once we received the new equipment, our momentum started to flow and the 1998 IBIS finally developed. Deadlines were one of our worst enemies along with the numerous computer problems. I would like to thank my friends and family for their strong love i i and support. Mom, Dad, Peter, Jenny 8t Katie, Da-Yung, Sandy 8t Dylan, Zachary, John, and Ku-Lang. Orlando-stop working too hard! Guy- F.S.U. 7 sucks! Is that why you transferred? J.C.-what a year! The Marlins won I y the World Series and you went to Super Bowl XXXII. ' . f! improved! Eh! Preston, I had a greattime at theWorId Series, thanks for My metering has all the help and encouragement. Phil at Associated Press, hey bud! Thanks for the experience. To Teresa Smith at Norland Middle who gave me the opportunity to shoot for Sports Illustrated for Kids in 1990, your knowledge has paid off and congrats on your newborn. Caryn Levy who helped me during the 1990 NBA AII-Star game, what do you think of my sports photography now? I can not forget to mention my two yearbook advisors from high school Victor Budzyn and Debra Miller, who supported me as Editor-in-Chief at the Design 8t Architecture Senior High 1990- 1994. To Jackie Hinchey-Sipes and Ana Gutierrez who both tragically lost their lives in car accidents, if it wasnit for their two influences, I probably would never have reached this far, nor even know how to use an Apple Macintosh computer. We all love you. I would also like to extend a thanks to my Phi Delt brothers for their support this year. After two long years, we finally initiated our chapter. Congratulations fellas on re-establishing the Florida Delta Chapter of Phi Delta Theta IcDAE-D on this campus. I will never forget the times we had. Keep in touch, Tim, Matt, Read, Chad, Sam, Howard, Carlos, Steve, Ted, Joe, Anthony, and Jon. Always bleed blue! To the Staff, I wish all of you continued success in the real world. Sarah- it has been a hectic year tragically and joyfully for the both of us. Congratulations on becoming President of Kappa and is it past or present tense? Julia-thanks for making the Faculty section a success, I think it set the standard for future IBISIs. Rebecca- you rocked this office and were most invaluable to the photographers and the book. Without you we might not have made some our deadlines this year. Good show, dear! Marisol- great photo of the Ring Theatre! You are never too busy for anything in your hectic schedule, right? Christy- you are the most positive person that l have ever met. It seems that when you set a goal, your always moving full steam ahead. Rachel- I appreciate your help throughout the year. You and Christy make a good Dynamic Duo. Vanessa- sorry about the little miscommunication tidbit, you gave me some insight that will help my management skills next year. You will eventually become the graphic designer for Time with a perfection to the IT and the dot on top of the l Jim- good job bud. Two thumbs up! You and Vanessa put together a great piece of work. So much for being P.C.... J.K. Danielle- originally I thought I would be working with another Darin, but apparently you were the complete opposite. Thanks for highlighting, changing file names, and plastering flyers all around campus. We have to do the sushi thing again. Fabian- the sports section looks very modern and streamlined, there is no comparison to previous yearbooks. I will never forget our F.S.U. trip with Rick and Jon. What did Jon find on the floor? Hmm. Next time, you can chauffeur us in your new Mohini- your section turned out better than I expecte. P P 9 It really captured the essence of the year. Gabi- you had a lot of awesome shots! Need I say more! Have a good future' In Switzerland and keep In touch, I hope to see your shots in the Daily Planet next century. Sandy- I cant hear you, what did you say? You lost yourvoioe! Rockin, parties. Adrienne- your photography skills have really improved over the year. Now do you like the smell of chemicals? Go pick up that bat! Shawn- you did a great job in writing and taking photos. Tiffany- you made me jealous when you showed me your F5, but I survived. We have to do U2 and Sushi again. Is there anybody else on staff that wants to go have some Sushi? John- thanks for the technical support and good luck working for Microsoft. Natasha- you were pretty quiet, so I dont know what to say... you wrote fascinating stories. Fabiana- you had some of the most amazing stories. You will be a famous newscaster some day, I just know it. Kristina- thanks for getting those stories done over break, you were magnificent. Amol, did you receive that Fed-X package? At least you finally wrote some stories, huh! Salil- I mean Saul, lets make some caallls! Good luck in Jersey, Fritz. Chai- thanks for participating this year. Your contribution in stories were tremendous. Eltanya- what happened to you? At first you were writing millions of stories and then I did not see you anymore. Eltanyalllllllllllll AIiza-wake up! Augustine, Fabian, and Ronnie, thanks for helping out and participating on staff this year. Kelly, great job on the Hurricane this year. Thanks to the Student Publications office staff, Greg, Nelly, Stephanie, Kwasi, Davika, Amy, Melissa, Carrie, and last but not least Connie. Thanks for all your help throughout the year and putting up with my antics. Congratulations on your newborn, William, wow I like that name. To all of the University of Miami students, faculty, and alumni, I present the 1998 IBISYearbook Dynamic. I hope you enjoyed yourjourney through this book now and years later when we all are working and then retired! ,b Sincerely, William Anthony Lai Editor-in-Chief 1998 Dynamic IBIS Yearbook
