O Bmuad Editor'so Note In 2001, the new millennium was upon us all, but more impor- tantly, we celebrated the 75-year history of the University of Miami with the 75th volume of the IBIS, the diamond edition. This years IBIS harked back to the beginning of the University up until now, with a focus not only on the past but more on how we got to the present. What the Coral Gables campus of today is would never have happened if it wasnt for yesterday. Our UC Patio evolved over the years just like the students. The fashions always changed but our sense of unity always remained strong. Our athletic uni- forms got a facelift this year but our winning ways never stopped. The tCanes of the past set the standards while the tCanes of today live up to them and set higher ones. The 2001 IBIS is a more photographic and graphical book than the 2000 book, telling the stories of the year through more pictures than text. The font used in this years book is Helvetica for the text and Klang MT for the captions. The diamond graphic motif follows throughout the entire book. This years book relies on a design theme, the diamond, instead of a worded theme. This years IBIS it will also feature seniors in color for only the second time in the books history. The organizations section will feature more features while fac- ulty members will be pictured within their respective departments. Sports continues to be a big part of the book, while current events has been extended to cover the year more completely. Overall I hope thatthis IBIS will not only be enjoyed for years to come by UM alumni, but will also provide a solid foundation for volumes to come. a2 Platon Alexandrakis Editor-in-Chief 2001 IBIS Yearbook, Volume 75 tColophon Part It The IBIS yearbook is published annually by the stu- dents of the University of Miami with coverage from March 2000-February 2001and is distributed annu- ally in April to full time students that payed the activity fee.

The big day for all SCHiOTS was when they finally graduated after four, five or sometimes even six years! This was a time for cel- e b r a ti n g with friends and family. After this day, graduates went into the real world and began working to build their future. Diplomas were received, hands were shaken and COPS flew. ltwasaday of smiles and a few tears of happiness. 0o Opening h 33v A .. i'wWw-nma-W w-,....

This is our University. During its 75-year history the cam- pus has morphed from 0 Ta rdboard COHCQC into a multi-million dollar state- of-the-art center of knowledge. Creative minds did more than study at this campus. Some enjoyed the sights and sounds ofSOUth BeaCh on Saturday night. Others shared drinks and laughs at C0- conut Grove TthSday night Still others learned how to cook arroz eon pollo and platanos maduros. Interna- tional students carved their first pumpkins and discarded the word gringo. More than just books, classes, and academ- ics, the University of Miami is a life- changing experience. It is a crossroad to the future; a gateway to the world. Duad 'V UDHf 119 uonoag If a survey was taken at UM, many students would claim that the weekend kicked off with aThursday night outing in the Grove. Come Friday, with the music flow- ing from the UC patio, there was no question that the weekend had begun. ttl love it? said freshman Matthew Wechsler. ttHearing the live music when llm walking back from class just makes me realize that the weekend is here, and its now time to chill? Welcome to Friday Groove. Arranged by the Student Activities office and Hurricane Productions, live bands were lined up to perform at UM every other Friday. ttWe think its a good program, said Melissa Sturm-Smith, the Assistant Director of Student Activities. ttWe get sub- missions from bands all across the country who are look- ing to perform here. We do try to mix it up a little bit, though, and make sure that we get a wide range of mu- sical selections for the students to listen to? Andy Keel- ing, the lead vocalist for The Young Ones, a group who was asked to play at UM, was excited about the oppor- tunity. From what I understand, getting the chance to play here is actually tougher than you would think.There are a lot of local bands who would love to play here, so for them to choose us is really cool? he said. UMts Friday Groove definitely helped to set the mood of the day and prepare students for an exciting weekend. photo by Diana Lam Students relaxing on the UC Patio during the weekly itFriday Groove listen to the jams ofi'Pleat. Throughout the year, students were able to enjoy a variety of musical talents from around Miami. While the hair was dif- ferent and the jeans a little tighter, UM students of today and 1975 shared the same love for the sun, laughs, and good ambiance. Stu- dents sought shelter from the sun, much like today, under red and white parasols. However, back then students played chess on the patio instead of Chatting on their cellular phones. That year also signaled half a century of Hurricane tra- dition. The football team, far from na- tional champions, had a record of 2-8. Despite this record, the University was far from average. A diverse cam- pus even then, the presence of differ- ent cultures permeated the many cam- pus organizations. With a history that is rich in culture and knowledge, the University of Miami a is well on its way to becoming one of E the centers of learning for the country. a m? .2 2.5. a 3 photos by Jorge Galvez Junior Winnie Eiiassaint, graduate student Saradhia Pericles, and sophomore Joanna Ceiestin share a laugh in between classes.

Sebastian interrupts a studying Beiia Dominguez with some good old iCane spirit. By ganantm Eicpc After hundreds of housing applications were pro- cessed, there was still an even bigger problem that the Department of Residence Halls was faced with. How do you tell dozens of students that there was just no place for them to live? Senior Stefan Cline was one of these unfortunate few. After applying Iast-minute, he was told that he would be living in temporary housing for awhile. He discov- ered when he arrived, that his room, number 822, was nothing more than a study lounge with the windows cov- ered in paint. ti ended up living in the lounge for about two weeks. The room had no cable, no closets, and no mailbox downstairs, Cline said. Luckily, probiems like Cline,s were eventually smoothed out, as some students never showed up to their dorm rooms, allowing those students in temporary housing to move into actual rooms. After the hectic August 19th moving day had died down, many freshmen found themselves adjusting to life with a roommate, something most had not experi- enced before. Freshman Kevin Jennings soon discovered the dif- ferences in taste would have to result in compromise. tLiving with my roommate has been fine so far, ex- cept that he gets ticked off wheneverl listen to Manson or tNSYNC, Jennings said. ?mil photo by Deanna Droira Students walk to their next class after a section in the Learning Center.

Where were most stu- dents? Class? The Gym? Sleeping? . By the look of the cafeterias and the Hurricane Food Court, most were at a table eating. Whether stu- dents wanted Chinese, pizza, or just a sandwich, food on campus catered to almost every taste. The food court was a popular spot for many tCanes. Junior Michael Corbo loved Panda Express because I like Chinese food, and their fried rice and orange Chicken is pretty tasty. Burger King and Taco Bell were staples to some diners. tBurrito Supreme all the way? said Jun- ior Scott Karp. For students searching for an alternative to typical fast food there were places like Leols Deli, where wraps were served and Worldis Fair sampled plates from all corners of the globe. Meanwhile, Columbo served up smoothies and yogurts for dessert. In addition, the campus had two cafeterias where students who had meal plans could walk in, swipe their Cane Cards, and sit down to a good meal. Junior Paul Mungia said, llWhen lim hungry, its just easier to walk into the cafeteria, grab a bite, and go to class. Others didnt think as highly of the cafeteria. Junior Rob Th- ompson said that the lack of selection was his major qualOm: ltafter your tenth chicken patty and your twenti- eth pizza, it gets kind of boring? Nonetheless, the cat- eteria provided students with simple dining on the go. Whether eating pizzas at Sbarro or stir-fry at Chartwells, students, menus were definitely diverse and yummy to the tummy. : w Rat, - 3i? waitgtinmwegzrvice 1' Mini t orange. zeAlee 9610p Aq Soqu The H urricane Food Court offered a welcomed alternative to ChartweHs.

Eating-Student Llfe M 00 By Damian: Noni; Parking on campus was very Clearly defined by the University of Miami Public Safety Department. The Seashell, Ibis, Palm, or Sun symbols hanging from the rearview mirror of the students, or teacherst cars had a symbol that noted where the driver could park. Residents did not always have the benefits of park- ing right by their dorm or apartment if they left during the day. ttThe only problem I can see with parking on campus is if I decide to leave between 9 and 5 on week- days, I know that I will lose my spot to a commuter who fills it up? said Leo Daab, a senior Bio-Chemistry ma- jor. Another resident, Maureen Capasso, a sophomore Communications major, added, uParking is not that bad, its just that the spots are so tight that it is impossible to get out sometimes? On the opposing side, commuters felt that there was not enough parking for them to begin with. Students were forced to drive around looking for spots, and driv- ing time ranged anywhere from 2 minutes to two hours. Commuter lots had even more illegal parking, and at times some students got stuck behind these vehicles for hours. Danielle Rosario, a junior Elementary Edu- cationIPsychology major stated, ttEither UM should lower the price of permits or add more parking spaces, because for the price of the parking permit, commuters and residents should be guaranteed parking on the spot, not thirty minutes later? photo by Gadi Hus Lieutenant Christianson checks into 0 students car to make sure every- thing was in order.

When students couIdn't find parking they made their own parking spaces. a :4 v mmissuu wWeMMW By Jen Dina Long ten-hour shifts from 10 pm to 8 am were not for everyone. Night security assistants found that $7.00 an hour was enough to take on this great responsibility, which included a week long training session during the fall semester. Security personnel had various duties in the dorms besides the obvious, which was checking each resi- dent in by sliding their Cane Card. They were also re- sponsible for checking in guests at all dorms. They helped Resident Assistants, answered phone calls, com- pleted activity logs for each night, and also assisted in emergencies. Security Assistant Keith Chambliss explained that the shifts he worked changed his sleeping habits so that he had itbecome a vampire? He also said that sleep was sacrificed even though you wind up getting homework done while youlre at work. When asked, Andi McDowell advised those interested in working night security, ttif you donit think you can stay awake and you wont be dedicated, dont do it. Every job has its good and bad sides. Night security was only for responsible people who were able to stay awake all night while still being able to function for class. photo by Jorge Galvez Strolling in late, junior Lauren Moyer checks in at the front desk with Se- curity Assistant Daimeone Smalls.

In hopes of filling their stomachs, students hurried to the UC. How- ever, on their way to the Food Court they were bom- barded left and right by solicitors in the Breezeway. Each solicitor armed their station with tons of clipboards, pens, and bright colored paper that would end up lying all around campus. Each table had its own product or ser- vice that it wanted to sell to students. A common interest shared by all college students was the lack of cash. Naturally, students were enticed by the flashy signs that spelled out anything for free. And of course, the way to every students, attention land stomach for that mattery was free food. Freshman Tannis Carpenter said, title a great way to meet people and just start up a conversation. From organizations on campus to credit card com- panies, there was always something for everyone in the Breezeway. Freshman Tammy Almeyda stated, tilt al- lows you to see the different things the University can offer you. It also gives you an opportunity to get in- volved? Sometimes students got so busy with studying and work that the Breezeway was the only way to stay con- nected to what was going on at the University. Need to call Mom and Dad? You could sign up for a phone card in the Breezeway and get a pair of FREE thkleysF too. Anything FREE attracted students who were low in the cash department. However, not everyone liked solicitors badgering him or her left and right. Will Williams, freshman, stated, ttltls a great way to explore interests, but it can be ob- noxious from time to time. 4 ox? i??xWx NM u, photo by Jennifer Diaz 6.070 financing! Get the Herald!

One of stu- dents, favorite additions was the tibotanical gardensi, planted near the Memorial building and Learning Cen- ter. It looked like this year brought more of the same kind of renewing of the campus face. Like last year, more of the on-campus apartments had been demolished for the much anticipated Ryder Center, the promised bas- ketball arena that still did not have a ground breaking date set. The Music School was also expected to go under construction, with additions expected to be com- pleted for the Fall 2002 semester. The School of Mu- sic received an $8 million gift from an anonymous do- nor to build a state-of-the-art music library and advanced technology center, it said Dan Kalmanson, in an article posted on the Universityis web site. The School of Communications new building was expected to be completed by January of 2001, allowing faculty to move in to it in the spring. Gina Alvarez, a staff associate with the School, said, ltThe ground break- ing for the building was December 1998. However, due to difficulty in getting necessary construction permits, the work did not begin until six months later? This much anticipated building housed the Schools facilities, in- cluding new photo and film labs, new computer labs, and new classrooms. These new additions to the campus prepared the University for the new millennium. The New Home ofChampions.

However, it was not surprising that the largest popu- lation the Wellness Center catered to was college and middle-aged individuals. One of the most popular ar- eas of the Wellness Center was the Fitness Room, which contained cardiovascular machines, free weights, and Nautilus machines. On some weekday afternoons, there were as many as 150 participants in the room. ttl work out in the mornings and afternoons almost everyday. It puts me in a better mood, and gives me more energy for my day? freshman Vanessa Llizo said. Over 40 free aerobics classes a week were offered, with as many as fifty people participating in cardio kickboxing, step aerobics, and circuit conditioning. For a small fee, Wellness Center members joined such classes as yoga and the fast-paced indoor cycling class, called ttHotwheelsll. Besides being fitness headquarters, the Center was one of the biggest employers of UM students on cam- pus. Although it was run by professional staff mem- bers, students held all of the functioning positions, such as fitness assistants, personal trainers, and lifeguards. This was my third year working in the fitness room. I enjoy meeting people who are interested in being fit and helping those people in the pursuit of better health? junior Indira Mota said. 'ka'q.

Pan The year two thousand saw athletes from all over the world compete for the highest accolades in their sport. Men and women from South Africa to Scotland and Cuba to China participated in events such as soccer, basketball, and swimming. They also com- peted in events like kickball, horseshoes, as well as a scavenger hunt. If these events seem a little out of the ordinary, its because this was not the Sydney Olym- pics. All these athletes competed in UMls annual SportsFest competition. SportsFest pitted the Residential Colleges against each other in an intense quest to conquer the coveted SportsFest trophy, which spent most of the we in the Stanford Residential College trophy case. This year the other Residential Colleges had different dreams. Kevin Murphy, who lived in Hecht, said, nThis year, Hecht will dominate and bring the trophy back to where it belongs. Lisa Mead of Stanford felt differ- ently. tThe trophy isnlt going anywhere, she said. SportsFest gave students a chance to relax and have some fun with their floormates, bringing the residents closer together and building the identity that was common within each dorm. Students were able to organize teams by floor and were allowed to come up with their own team names. With teams like The Eight Ballers, Please Pass the Trophy, and Hey Sarah Can I Come Over, SportsFest definitely let students unwind under the banner of healthy competition. In the end, Stanford reasserted its dominance by winning its sixth title in a row and its seventh in all of SportsFest history, becoming the record keepers. When asked what the secret was, Lisa Mead said, llltls definitely the girls? Girl Power! Jessica DeBari does her end zone dance during a Womenls flag football game.

Free tickets were made available to students prior to the event and those students who didn't have tickets were required to present a Cane Card to gain admittance. The funk group, the Commodores, shared some bass and bellbottoms with the Canes during Hurricane Howl 82. The UC patio saw its share of performers. From Bob Dylan, to Simply Red, and the 803 group Berlin, we have had it all. The concert attempted to bring per- formers to our campus that reflected the tastes of the students, and in retrospect, the groups that performed might not have been on the CD players of most current students, but it was cool back then. It is quite possible that someone looking at the 2000 yearbook fifty years from now will probably laugh at the performers of to- day and their styles.

Most didn't know the North Star from the shine of Venus. Nonetheless the ingenuity of Marco Polo was present in their eyes. The annual Boat Race was about to begin. Participants made boats not out ofiumber but cardboard and the only propulsion available was the brunt oftheir arms. in the end it was George Gaiuez's keen engineering and pure desire that was victorious. As the sun set, the skies over Stanforleecht towers was alive with the shine of fireworks. The fireworks were followed by the burning ofthe boat. The tradition holds that if the boat's mast breaks the football team will win the homecoming game. Oniookers were not disap- pointed when the boat sunk as planned and Cane fans were even more pleased when the Hookies went down 41-21. Hurricane cheerleaders defy the laws ofnature during the parade.

The race was held on Lake Osceola and its biggest challenge was to build a boat that would stay afloat since teams were required to build their boats out ofcardboard. photos by Daniel Colcher The tradition was alive then and its still going strong after fifty years. The boat burning ritual has deep roots in University of Mi- ami customs and has played a big role in Homecoming festivi- ties. The legend says that if the mast of the boat that is being burned falls before the boat sinks then the homecoming game will be a victory. This particular year the Hurricanes added a victory against the University of Alabama. The 2000 game the Hurricanes made a mess of the Hookies offense and de- fense and moved up in the national polls. The skies over Lake Osceola light up during a traditional boat burning ceremony.

Some people around this cam- pus felt that there was very little tradition at the University of Miami. There was no one thing that united Canes across time. But flipping through any of the 75 yearbooks that have been published, it was easy to see that our school was filled with tradition. A perfect example was Homecoming and, more specifically, Organized Cheer. In this picture we see the brothers of ZBT perform during the 1981 competition. The most desired of all trophies, the Organized Cheer contest is one of the most competitive events of Homecoming. Organizations usually spend a large amount of time preparing choreography and even more time practicing. Tradition- ally, a ttGreek eventii, more non Greek or- ganizations participated. This participa- tion kept the tradition alive well into the 21st century. g -l H : Q3 '5 3 H V3 L Q9 Q3 .2 u U Q3 E : c a L O 45 Dancers. facades, and red roses covered the Hoor of the Calusa Country Club Banquet Hall at the end of the Masquerade Homecoming Ball.

De LA Gmtdq'a While students lost themselves amid piles of incom- prehensible books and useless notes, someone else made sure the voice of the student body was not ne- glected. The Student Government was an executive body that represented the students in all university func- tions and converted student body ideas into action. SG was divided into two main branches, the Senate and the Cabinet. The Senate was directly elected by the students and assured that issues were dealt with accordingly. This task proved extremely difficult at times, due to the great number of people a senator repre- sented. College of Engineering Senator Shaun Smart tried to overcome this obstacle by constantly meeting with the Engineering Advisory Board lEABy, which was composed of the presidents of every engineering orga- nization in the department. The Cabinet, unlike the Senate, was composed of appointed members, and operated on a committee sys- tem. This allowed for more focused action, as commit- tee members concentrated their efforts on their committees actions. The coordination necessary for an effective SG was provided by elected officers such as President and Vice President. Last years election was a peculiar one, as it yielded a split ticket decision. Shane Weaver and Lily Guallar both campaigned for the office of 8G President during the regular elections. After the first round and a runoff election, Weaver was elected President, while Guallar was appointed Cabinet Coordinator. President Weaver affirmed that this was extremely beneficial as it forced them to try and fulfill two sets of campaign prom- ises during the year. SG accomplished a variety of things over the sum- mer, like securing extended dining hall hours. This year SG also created Category 5, the Spirit Programming Board, which strove to foster school spirit. Service Learning Programs, which allowed for the application of classroom learning to the betterment of the commu- nity, were also greatly supported. In addition, perma- nent e-mail addresses for officers were created to allow the students to contact senators and other officers with less effort. SG existed for the sole purpose of benefiting the stu- dents. Its members were tjust students who wanted to work lthemselvesl into exhaustion for the sake of the student body? affirmed President Weaver. Working to improve school spirit, Student Government President Shane Weaver touches up a banner promoting Category 5 activities.

A 0 Student Gouernmeantudent Life BV Diana Law- The UM commuter students got to school in any way they could, whether it was by train, car, or motorcycle. Enduring several obstacles to get to UM, one could see them running across streets to get to MetroRail trains, aimlessly hoping to find parking at 9 am and waiting in traffic for hours on end. It was tough to live at home! So why did they endure all of this? There were several reasons why these students chose to commute; one of the most common was the cost for room and board. ttThat money could be spent somewhere else, oom- mented senior Felipe Lam. UM had a club for every one, including the lone com- muter. ACS, or the Association of Commuter Students, was a place where the commuter could find rescue. Upstairs in UC, these commuters could find others who understood their situation, those who lived the life they lived, and endured the traffic and headache everyday. This club did not discriminate, however, as all were wel- come, even those who lived on campus. ACSi door was open to all. Run by JD Barbosa, President, Dianne Laoayo, Vise- President, Javier Del Rio, Treasurer, Adriana Rodriguez, Secretary, and their advisorTrisha Shatley, they helped to create an environment where the commuter could relax, have fun, and get a chance to mingle with fellow peers.

For a lot of students, it was none of the above. Some were first acquainted with the Resident Assistant on their floor. A university official, the RA was responsible for en- suring that university policy was carried out in the resi- dential colleges. Helshe made sure that noise levels were appropriate, that roommate conflicts were resolved, and that residents were successful academically. On first glance the job of an RA might be easily defined as pro- fessional party pooper. Looking deeper, it was easy to see that the RA was more than that. Hershe was a men- tor, a friend, and a leader. Selected from some of the best students on cam- pus, RAls were entrusted with not only delegating au- thority, but also with the mission of helping students build a home away from home. Most of an RAts time was spent planning activities that ranged from scuba diving to yoga. RAls were also responsible for being a resource to students. They helped new students find classrooms, and old students find new resources. A conduit between the university and most students the RA helped resi- dents, find their niche on the campus. 80 whether it was helping a freshman get involved on campus, resolving a crisis, or ensuring the safety of all residents on campus, the RA was more than just a party pooper.

The different types of student media outlets in the Uni- versity of Miami community this year, such as The Hur- ricane newspaper, WVUM radio station, and the cable television channel UMTV, not only provided the students, faculty, and staff with important information and enter- tainment, but each of them, in their own manners, also facilitated communication and unity. The Hurricane newspaper, as in previous years, was published twice a week, on Tuesdays and on Fridays. It was the most widely read publication on campus, al- though the content of the paper seemed to have changed. The focus this year was to achieve a new level of professionalism. We also have been striving to expose a broader picture of student life at the univer- sity? said Garriot Louisna, Editor-in-Chief of the paper. The newspaper was not the only growing outlet. UMls own radio station, WVUM, also had many plans at the beginning of the year. The station, whichhad been on the air since 1968, was heard on 90.5 FM. Five years ago the station received a significant power upgrade, which gave them the ability to reach many around the South Florida community, making it, as General Man- ager Eric Rasco said, ltThe most widely accessible me- dia outlet on campus. UMTV was also one of the important media outlets. Susan Roumelis, Director of UMTV, put it best when she said, it Everyone looks to television as a source of entertainment and news, and UMTV is able to give a visual first hand look at the events that occur at the uni- versity. UMTVls availability on campus and in the com- munity made it possible to reach a potential audience of over a half a million. New exciting additions were made to the line-up including llStormfrontll, a football show, and a more college oriented Classical Arts Showcase program. All of these media outlets had a different way of do- ing one thing: communicating. As they did this, they al- lowed for the flow of information through the University, for entertainment, and also for the representation the University in the South Florida community. photos by Daniel Colcher The Voice. hue and in the mix.

Residential Colleges-Student Life This year, hundreds of freshmen arrived on campus without any idea of what they planned to do after they finished their next four years. While one-third of fresh- men declared biological majors, and one-third declared all other majors, still one-third remained part of the grow- ing ttundeoided category. This group was hesitant to decide on one particular major, or were just plain clueless as to what to do with the rest of their lives. Helping confused undergraduates was a major func- tion of the Toppel Career Center, an on-campus resource center for those who wanted to find careers or learn more about the paths they had already chosen. The Toppel staff urged students to start visiting the center early on in their academic careers. ttWe always tell people to start researching their fresh- man year to find out whats available out there. The best time is between freshman and sophomore year. This is when students can see what types of careers are within their major, and during the summer we can even set them up with an internship position. You dont want to wait until senior year to find out that you dont even like the positions that your major offers, Toppel Office Manager John Sullivan advised. rive Networking at the Career Expo, Wei Zhao exchanges a few words with representatives from a possible employer.

Career Fair-Student Life Welcome to Miami, one of the youngest fashion me- tropolises of the world. No wonder the campus could be mistaken for a runway at times, where the UC and the benches on the end of the Memorial Building were the ultimate judging points. UM students at these two loca- tions were especially merciless when it came to fash- ion. Clothes made it easy to differentiate many groups on campus. The most obvious were the sororities and fraternities who wore their letters and colors on a weekly basis. Athletes stood out as well because of their spir- ited orange and green shirts and pants. Then there was the trendy crowd with the Gucci sunglasses and Prada bags. itBal Harbour is my favorite? said Amy Frassq, an Art major. Other preferred stores in the $500 and up category were Gucci, Ocean Drive, Armani Exchange and Versaoe. tSunset Place is really nice but really ex- pensive, said Gisel Stark, a Sophomore Nursing stu- dent. The average student shopped at stores like Ex- press, Guess, Gap, Burdines and Rampage. Almost everybody agreed that dressing up was fun but it could also be very painful. ult hurts to be beauti- ful? said Jennifer Ingram, a Sophomore Advertising major. On top of the pain list were shoes. lt didnit mat- ter how comfortable they were in the store, after run- ning around campus all day they showed their true ten- der spots. The diversity of the student body was reflected in the style students wore, and it brought a certain flair with it that no other campus could match. Whatmalls do you Shep at?

Just like model students, they got up every morning and dragged themselves to the bathroom to do their little shower and beautifying routine. After that, they de- cided what they were going to wear, picked up their al- ready packed backpack, and grabbed a cup of coffee or a Poptart on the way out. nl go to class and get cof- fee, said junior Emily Stumm, tiltis just easier so early in the morning? Then there were also those days when students didnt get home until 5am from a night out in the Grove. In the morning, they regretted not going home earlier since they had a class at 9am that they couldnt miss, due to the new strictly enforced attendance policy. On days like these, one of the most popular activities was an afternoon nap. a These afternoon naps were not for everyone, though. Most students didnit stop with 15 credit hours; they gave up their already scarce spare time to hold jobs. UM stu- dents held an amazing, variety of jobs, from teaching pre-school teaching to designing websites to painting theatre sets to working at a news channel. til work at Lennar Homes. We do everything: real es- tate, loan processing, etcf said David Roman, a 4th year Architecture major. Some students were just on top of their time management, maintaining two jobs and a full courseload. All this was very commendable, but what did these people do to relax from the everyday stress of classes, work, a boyigirlfriend and life in general? A trip to the beach to roast in the sun was one way students relaxed. Since they were already at the beach, some went on a little shopping spree or got some lunch at News Cafe'. Another very popular and less expensive ways to re- lease built up tension was visiting the gym. There the preferences varied from weight lifting to a muscle relax- ing treatment in the Jacuzzi. More artistic students, on the other hand, spun records, painted, or created web sites. nFree time? What free time? I work on my film every chance I get? said Ben Barnes, a Motion Pic- tures graduate student. Altogether, the daily life of a UM student was less adventurous compared to the wild nightlife of most stu- dents. The best study buddy for many students was nature itself.

Rolling with the breeze, these beachgoers enjoy the scenery. South Beach was also popular for its boardwalk, boutiques, and restaurants. Cutting through the waves, the Miami Crew team gets ready for their next meet. Student athletes, by far, had a very hectic schedule. Their days were often packed with practices, classes, and school work. By Edward Hidalgo College was never just about classes and studying. It was about experience, growth, self-actualization, pride, and....partying. When it came to partying there was no better place to be than South Florida. Students at the University of Miami were able to experience college life in a city famous for its exotic places, an international flair, and a very exciting night life. ttl love the night life here in Miami.The clubs at South Beach are great because everyone is so unique and different? said sophomore Cristina Montano. As a part of the Art Deco District in Miami Beach, South Beach, the world famous locale known for its restaurants, oa- fes, and dance clubs, was definitely popular among the students. Unfortunately for many underclassmen, ac- cess to South Beachls dance clubs was halted when a law was passed banning those under 21 years of age. uEven with that ridiculous law, South Beach still is a great place to go. Besides, there are always ways to get around the law, said freshman Lauren Alves-Daily. Another place that UM students enjoyed going was Coconut Grove, where the party also never stopped. til think the Grove is one of the best places here in Miami, especially during Halloween. It gets pretty crazy over there. Sometimes it gets out of hand, said Alves-Daily. Ft. Lauderdale was also another option for students. Just a short forty-five minute drive to the north and stu- dents would experience the action at Las Olas Riverfront and other places in the city. Regardless of where a student went to experience Miamiis night life, they were always having a good time in the city where the heat was always on. here do you party?

Duoqunw unnsqu fig uonoas Seniors Citatiam By Christian Maribona Receiving a higher education is so much more than going to class, doing your homework, making good grades, and graduating with a degree. In order to get the most out of your stay at an institution of higher learning, such as the University of Miami, you have to go outside the classroom and get involved. Taking part in extracurricular activities shows a student a whole different world; a world that teaches a student how to interact with other students, faculty and administration; a world that shows a person how to lead by example; a world that molds and creates student leaders. At UM, many students have fled the normality of just going to class, and have full submersed themselves in the world of student leadership. To be a student leader at the University of Miami is to know hard work, dedication, compassion, and 'Cane Spirit. You may be wondering why I mention 'Cane Spirit. Well, my philosophy is that one has to truly love the University of Miami, and have a deep sense of Hurricane Pride, to want to devote their lives to bettering the University. I believe that it is the goal of every student leader at UM to make some aspect of the University better. Our university is young, and it has come a long way, but it has a long way to go, and who better to push the University of Miami along, than her students. What is amazing about the student leader population at the University of Miami is that most of them do all that they do without ever thinking about, or receiving, recognition. The Ibis yearbook has a long-standing, and sporadic, tradition of recognizing the graduating seniors who dived into the world of student activities and who have strived to better their Alma Mater. We recognize these seniors by dedicating a space in the Senior Section of the Yearbook to each senior, and explaining just what it is about these seniors that make them stand out in the crowd. These dedications are what we like to call Ibis Citations. In the 1965 Ibis there were only 8 Ibis Citations awarded. The opening to the Ibis Citations section was as follows: All graduating classes are composed of those students who have served the student body with spirit and conviction. The college world bestows upon these dedicated students its honors and throws open its doors of membership to social and scholastic organizations. To these students, living in the world of fraternity pins, scholarships, victories and cheering crowds, IBIS '65 offer UM's last debt of thanks. On the . pages that follow KE 2 0 75 w you will E experience the E worlds of 21 student leaders who have dedicated N their lives to bettering some aspect of the University 67 of Miami. These students truly know the meaning of 'Cane Spirit, and no matter where they go, that spirit will shine through them for all to see. Those who have the privilege of knowing these 21 student leaders will be graced with the honor of knowing what it truly means to be a Miami Hurricane Seniors, your Alma Mater is proud, and it is my privilege to award each of you with an Ibis Citation.

Platon, also a member of the Society of Physics Students, has been on the ibis staff since his sophomore year. Platon started out as the Editor of the Athletics section. This is a very big position for a first time staff member. He wrote stories about sports, designed the pages of the section, and took action shots at sporting events. He held this position for two years. While Platon was the Editor of the Athletics section, the yearbook won many awards because of his work. The layout of, and theme presentation in the Athletics section was recognized many times during those two years. Platon worked diligently to produce a great section, and to always meet deadlines. It was because of his hard work and dedication to the Ibis Yearbook that Platon was selected by the Board of Publications to become Editor-In-Chief of the 2001 Ibis Yearbook. Platon's crowning achievement while at the University of Miami is that he was chosen to be the Editor-ln-Chief of the yearbook. When asked do describe his experience as the Editor of the Ibis, Platon said, Having to run the whole show, as opposed to just one section that I did my previous two years was a big change. He went on to say, Having to direct, lead, and inspire the staff members at the same time being tough to make sure all deadlines were made on time was a challenge. Platon felt that the most important thing that'her got from serving as the Editor-In- Chief of the Ibis Yearbook was that it taught him how to deal with other people. As a source of inspiration, Platon turns to the word of Albert Einstein. When asked to leave a quote, Platon said, The development of general ability for independent thinking and judgement should always be placed foremost, not the acquisition of special knowledge.

Humility is a trait that Danny got from his father. He has practiced humility thoughout all of his endeavors at the University of Miami. But, humility is not the only thing that Danny got from his parents. Danny said that his parents are his role models. He aspires to gain their best qulities. From his mother, Dannie would like to gain her ability to conduct herself with other people. It is very impotant to know how to handle, and work with other people. The quality that Danny would like to get from his father is his ability to conduct himself. This is where humility comes from. After college, Danny is goin into the Airforce to fly jets. Danny is now with the ROC program, and eventually he wants to be a comercial airline pilot. Danny says that the ROTC program is a good time, but that it can also get strenuous, especially when you are in charge of trainig freshmen and sophomores. Eventhough the program is strenuous, Danny still found time to get involved Danny s most notable achievement has been his work with FunDay. Danny has served as both Vice Chair, and as Chair. Danny said that the feeling that he got from working on FunDay was unmatchable. It was a feeling of accomplishment that only comesfrom working on activities such as F unDay. Being able to participate in FunDay, and the work that Danny did, is what he is most proud of.

A native of Miami, Felipe planed to work for IBM in Atlanta, Georgia, as a financial analyst. During his stay at the University of Miami, Felipe contributed many hours to student organizations. Felipe had been involved in Kappa Sigma F raternity, GAMMA: Greeks Advocating the Mature Management ofAlcohol, Greek Week Executive Commit- tee, Honor Student Association, Hurricanes Help the Hometown, Canefest Executive Board, Category 5, Mortar Board Senior Honor Society, and Golden Key National Honor Society. Felipe was also an Orientation Assistant, Vice President of Kappa Sig, President of the Interfraternity Council, Chair of the Rathskeller Advisory Board, President of Gamma Sigma Alpha Greek Honor Society, Secretary of Omicron Delta Kappa Honor Society, and President of Order of Omega Greek Honor Society. F elipe s achievements included being elected as President of the Interfraternity Council, and winning the Bill McCoy Scholarship. He thought that attaining these honors showed that his contributions to the University did not go unnoticed, and that his dedica- tion was appreciated. Standing behind Felipe in everything that he did is someone very special. The person that Felipe admired the most in life is his mom. She has been through so much, and not matter what obstacle was put in front of her, she was able to overcome it. She had also been very supportive of Felipe and of his endeavors. She pushed him to succeed, and helped him to accomplish his goals. When asked to give an inspirational quote, F elipe quoted Helen Keller. He said, One can never consent to creep when one is compelled to soar. Do not settle for any- thing in life. There is always room for improvement. Seniors Miguel Garcia Biology and Exercise Physiology Miami, FL Victor Garcia Finance North Miami, FL J orge A. G lvez was born in Caracas, Venezuela, 21 years ago. He moved to Miami when he was 11, and has been here ever since. He is majoring in biology, with i H Victoria Garza minors in Spanish, chemistry, and photography Marketing The person that J orge admires the most is Dr. Michael Carlebach. Dr. Carlebach was Miami, FL J orge s professor for a freshman photography class. The class was straight forward and laid back, but during the course of the semester, J orge discovered that he was making a B in the class. J or ge, then making straight As in all premed classes, confronted Dr . Carlebach. It was during this time when J orge discovered that your grades don t always matter. If you conduct yourself accordingly, then people will respect you, no matter what your grades are. It was the influence of Dr. Carlebach that inspired Jorge to get involved with photography. J orge has served the University as the Academic Affairs Committee Chair for the University of Miami Student Government Cabinet, President of the Golden Key National Honor Society, Photo Editor for the Miami Hurricane newspaper, and as a member of Alpha Epsilon Delta, the Pre-Medical Honor Society. A thought that J orge would like to leave behind comes from Yoda, Do or do not, there is no try. Youican never accomplish anything unless you try. Even if you do not succeed, you at least know how to do it differently next time.

Caro s greatest achievement was to realize and accept the person that she really was. How- ever, this achievement did not come unaided. Tricia Shatley, the current Director of Orientation and Commuter Student Affairs, and the Women s Resource Center, was an instrumental character in Caro s realization and the years that followed. Tricia s influence was so great on Carolina, that she pre- sented a certificate of appreciation to Tricia at the 2000 Leadership Institute Luncheon. In presenting the award, Caro said, lTlhere has been one person that has played a significant role in my life for the past three years. I can honestly attribute all of my successes as a student on this campus to Tricia Shatley. It is important to realize who you really are, and to stick by what you believe in, just like Caro did.

While at the University of Miami, Charles was involved in the National Society of Black Engineers, United Black Students, Jack and Jill, Inc., and Brothers Overcoming Negativity and Destruction. Charles served UM as Black Awareness Month Chair for UBS, Vice President of Brothers Overcoming Negativity and Destruction, Treasurer and President of United Black Students, Vice Chair of the Rathskeller Advisory Board, Chair of Black Homecoming Week for United Black Students, a Program Coordinator for Orientation, the Chair of Canefest 2000, and the Student Government Representative to the Board of Trustees. Because of these accomplish- ments and many more, Charles received the honor of being tapped into Iron Arrow Honor Society. Charles's honors include having won the Martin Luther King, Jr. Scholarship, the John F. Kennedy Scholar- ship, the Alfred Street Baptist Church Memorial Scholarship, the NAACP Community Service Award, the NAACP Leadership Award, first prize in the Fairfax County Engineering Drawing Competition, and second place in the Virginia State Engineering Drawing Competition. Being tapped into Iron Arrow was Charles's most notable achievement. He said that it felt good to know that his contributions to the University of Miami did not go unnoticed. He also noted that being tapped into this prestigious honor society was a humbling experience.

Kansas Erin Chrlstine Moyer lives 1n Hercules, Callfornia, but her heart will always be at the University of Miami. She is majoring in broadcast journalism and political science, and has a minor in art. Erin feels that her most notable achievement while at UM is having the opportunity to work with such a wide variety of people, and to share in their life experiences. She feels that the people that you meet along the road of life help define your true character. She has gained so many different qualities from the many people that she has met, and has realized that these experiences are very important. Erin has had many opportunities to meet different people, and to gain those experiences through her many extracurricular activities. While at the University of Miami, Erin has given time, energy, and love to many different organizations. She has been involved in Kappa Kappa Gamma, FunDay, Homecoming Executive Committee, UMTV, President 5 100, School of Communications Dean s Dozen, Alternative Spring Break, GAMMA: Greeks Advocating Mature Management ofAlcohol, Hurricanes Help the Hometown, National Broadcasting Society, IRTS, Hecht College Council, Miami Commitment, Love Jen Fund, AIDS Walk Miami, and The University of Miami Leadership Institute. Erin is even a member of Oprah s Book Club. Erin has served as the President of Kappa Kappa Gamma, Chair of FunDay, CO-Chair 0f Homecoming 2000, UMTV Daybreak News Anchor and Primetime News Anchor, a Hurricanes Help the Hometown Site Leader, and Treasurer of the National Broadcasting Society, IRTS. With all this under her belt it is not wonder that Erin received the Alpha Epsilon Phi Marilyn Gerstein Coller Outstanding Junior Award, the Mark S. Spiegel Memorial Award for Generosity of Spirit, and received the honors of New PourmaSiha being tapped into Omicron Delta Kappa and Iron Arrow Honor Society. I believe that Erin Bio'ogyl PSyChO'Ogy said it best when she said, College is more than academics. She is so right.

John, from Hudson, F L, is indeed a model student. He has managed to maintain a 4.0 GPA. I could easily stop this feature after mentioning that feat, but John has done so much, that it should not go unmentioned. b In his four years at the University on Miami, John has been a member of Tau Beta '25 Pi Engineering Honor Society, Golden Key National Honor Society, a College of Engi- neering Dean s Dozen, a Peer Counselor, a Teaching Assistant, a Lab Assistant for the Biomedical Engineering office, a Resident Assistant for Hecht Residential College, and the Treasurer of the Biomedical Engineering Society. John has also volunteered to help out at graduation, the Homecoming Breakfast, and the SECME Build IUBridge Project. With all of this involvement, John also found time to research, apply for, and receive the National Collegiate Inventors and Innovators Alliance Research Grant for undergraduate work on an Arthroscopic Simulator. This grant brought in $13,500. Yet with all of these accomplish- ments, and many more, John remained humble. John s most notable achievement at the University of Miami was that he gained the trust, respect, and friendships of many people. He felt that awards are not always impor- tant. What is important, though, are your experiences in life, and the people that you meet along the way. These are the things that define who you are. In fact the people that John admired the most, and aspired to be like are his parents, and friends. He looked up to his parents because they have been very supportive, and have led him in the right direction. Even when there is a difference of opinion, they have always been in his corner, rallying him on. His friends all have different qualities that John wished to have. John s quote of inspiration was, W ith knowledge comes opportunity. With perse- verance comes success. The more you know, the more you can achieve; the more you try, the more you will achieve.

One of the most successful events of Homecoming has been Hurricanes Help the Hometown. HHTH takes place on a Saturday during the week of Homecoming. University of Miami students spend their Saturday giving back to the community. The activities during the day differ, and a student may go to serve food at a soup kitchen for the homeless, or to plant trees in hopes of restoring a costal strand. Raven was Co-Chair of HHTH for Homecoming and she feels that having this honor was her most notable achievement. HHTH is a huge event and it takes a lot of work for all who are involved. Raven feels that her Mom was the person who served as a role model for her Raven. Raven said that her Mom is really into volunteering, and giving back to the community. It was this sense of charity that inspired Raven to become involved in community service activities both here at UM, and at home in Washington, DC. After college, Raven wanted to return to DC. to go to law School. She hoped to go to either Georgetown University, or American University. Eventually, Raven wanted to be a federal court judge, but she planned on starting out in the DA's office. Raven's quote of inspiration was, Ignorance never settles a question.

Latoya quoted, You must learn to lean on your faith. Whatever you aspire to be or to do in life is attainable; however, you must believe in yourself and in your God for guidance and for strength to endure that trials and tribulations that you will face. During her stay at the University of Miami, Latoya Thomas served her community well. She was President of the Black Student Nurses Association, a volunteer at Camellias House, and a participant of Alternative Spring Break and Hurricanes Help the Hometown, and she gave free blood pressure screenings at the North Miami Senior Citizens Health Fair. Latoya also researched the affect of that having a pet had of the geriatric community in a nursing home environment. Latoya s honors included having received the William Hearst Endowed Scholarship, and the Dr. George Labadie Leadership Award, and having made the Dean 3 List. Her most notable achievement while in college was the work that she accomplished as the President of the Black Student Nurses Association. Latoya felt that she aided in bridging the gap be- tween faculty and students at the School of Nursing, and that she helped in the recruitment of many students. Throughout her life, Latoy s role model was her mother. Her Mom was a single parent who was trying to raise a child. Latoya felt that it was her mother who instilled the values and morals in Latoya that are necessary to survive. After College, Latoya planed on going to graduate school, and specializing in Neonatol- O gy.

One of Roy Taub's most no- table achievements was that he was nominated for and con- firmed as the Chief Justice of the University of Miami Student Gov- ernment Supreme Court. Being the Chief Justice of the Supreme Court is a high position that car- ries a lot of responsibility, and Roy Sonia Uttamchandani did an amazing job in handling Computer Information Systems those responsibilities. The Su- Fort Myers, Florida preme Court, largely due to the dedication and hard work of Roy, has been more active, and has improved since he was installed onto office.

Roy felt that John McCain faced great adversity while being a Prisoner of War, but he stuck through it till the end. Roy admires his straightforward manner of speaking, and his sense of humor. He felt that these qualities are very important to have. Roy hoped to continue on in school to study law. Roy would like to have worked in the field of civil litigation. For a source of inspiration, Roy turns to Robert Kennedy. When asked to give an inspirational quote, Roy said, Some men see things as they are, and say 'Why?' I dream things that never were and say 'Why not?' It is important to have dreams and to strive to achieve those dreams. If we did not dream than the world would be a very dull place.

His first two years at UM, Shane did nothing outside of classes, and he felt as though there were something lacking in his college experience. 80, Shane did what countless other students around campus have done; he got involved. During his stay at the Univer- sity of Miami, Shane has been the Publicity Chair for Phi Alpha Delta Pre-Legal Society, Public Relations Chair for the Association of Commuter Students, a Group Leader for FunDay, a Site Leader for Hurricanes Help the Hometown, a Site Leader for Orientation Outreach, Public Relations Chair for A Week for Life, a writer for and the Copy Editor of The Miami Hurricane, a member of United Black Students, Brothers Overcoming Negativity and Destruction, and Sigma Phi Epsilon Fraternity, the School of Business Administration Senator for the University of Miami Student Government, Speaker of the Senate, and President of Student Government. Shane considered all the people that he worked with in his various student organizations as role models. He felt as though each person had a different quality that he would have liked to possess, and that the breadth of the experience of each student leader was a guide for the type of student leader that he should have been. After college, Shane hoped to attend law or graduate school. Shane wanted to eventually be involved in politics. He felt that there was so much that could have been changed, and that someone had to do it. Shane's inspirational quote was, Don't ever count yourself out, or sell yourself short. Everyone is capable of accomplishing amazing things if they're willing to work for it. Seniors I41 Seniors Heather Weter Heather L. Weeter has impacted the lives of many students. While at the Uni- versity of Miami, Heather was a Resident Assistant in Mahoney Residential College for two years. During this time, she was able to form relationships with the residents on her floor, and help them deal with the hassles of everyday college life. Also, Heather has been the President of the Womenis Fastpitch Softball Club, the Chair of the Sports and Recreational Interests Club Federation, Vice President of the Gay, Lesbian, Bisexual Community, a Senator for the University of Miami Student Govern- ment, and a Peer Advisor in the Biology De- partment. With all of these activities came interaction with other students. This was how Heather touched many other students. Heatheris honors include membership Alpha Lambda Delta Freshman Honor So- ciety, Omicron Delta Kappa Leadership Honor Society, and Alpha Epsilon Delta Pre- medical Honor Society, as well as receiv- ing the Kimball J. Comer Responsible Stu- dent Scholarship, and the 1999 Sports Club President of the Year Award. Heatheris most notable achievement while at the University of Miami was that she was able to interact with so many other people because of her involvement. She felt that her interactions with other people have both changed the way she thinks and acts, and also changed the views and ac- tions of those whom she met. She loves being able to walk around campus and know so many people, and know so much about the University. The person that Heather admires the most is Adrianne Otto-Frame. Adrianne and Heather worked together when Heather was a Resident Assistant in Mahoney Residential College. Heather worked for Adrianne, but Adrianne was so much more than just a boss to Heather. Adrianne helped Heather to learn about college, and what is important in life. Adrianne had such a beautiful outlook on life, and it inspired Heather. Upon graduation from the University of Miami, Heather hoped to either go on to graduate schooi to study Marine Mammalogy, or to go work for the Federal Bureau of Investigation.

Although typically a dry subject, aca- d e m 1 CS was the foundation for college, the very reason for its existence. The academic counterpart to COHCQC offered students the opportunity to expand their minds and broaden their imaginations.

One of UMls 13 schools and colleges, the School of Music was dedi- cated to the cultural advancement of students. Accord- ing to Dean William Hipp, since its inception in 1926, the School of Music had been ta major educational and cultural resource? The University of Miami School of Music played host to a large variety of musical performances. Almost ev- ery type of music was performed in the Gusman and Clarke concert halls, however, not all of the perfor- mances were put on by the Music Department; the The- atre Arts department also had its showing. The Theatre Arts Department was also dedicated to the culturalization of the University of Miami. Perfor- mances such as ttBerlin to Broadwayll, tAntigonell, and A Midsummer Nightls Dream captivated audiences. Christina Valo, a sophomore, said, ttBeing a Musical Theatre major involves a very hard schedule. However, it teaches you to be a professional, and to appreciate the many different types of plays? ar from past When the School of Music opened in 1926, it was nothing more than an apartment building. At that time, the University had just been established, and was made up of only two schools: the School of Music and the College of Arts and Sciences. The School was formally accredited in 1939 by the National Association of Schools of Music, as the 1 program made it a goal to give all music students , notonly skilled knowledge of their art, but also a 7 professional edge to help them succeed in such a r competitive field. In 1959, qtdpractlce for the upcoming , performancegthese students take a break from playing their instruments. ,7 I . fsmm '13:, Landing an internship at Ryder Communication, Stacy Stacks, along with her department head, peruse some publicity material. lnterning at the Department of Residence Halls, Alex Yu helps Tommy Armentrout with her computer programming. Communication students take advantage of their internship opportunities One of the perks of being a School of Com- munication student at UM was the ample opportunities for internships. Taking part in an internship allowed stu- dents to learn more about themselves and what they want out of their education. It was important to make the most of the opportunity, since it was possible to be offered a job with the company in the future. Almost all of the programs had internships available and many of the programs offered internships for credit. In order for a student to get an internship for University credit, her she had to be in good academic standing, and the stu- dent must have completed at least one course in the area of the projected internship. The main selling point for the School of Communications internships was the idea of hands on, early on, a phrase found all over their brochures. The idea portrayed a school that provided opportunities for students to learn by doing. The internship program allowed students to seek communication-related positions in the South Florida area during the academic year or in their hometown during the summer. South Florida was in an endless search for interns in fields such as journalism, motion pictures, broadcasting, public relations, and advertis- mg. Students could find internships simply by stopping by Luis Herrera's office, the Director of Student Ser- vices, or by taking advantage of the School's career li- brary.

E dz'tz'o n5; 25A ddz'tio n5 Students gain valuable writing and editing experience through specialized courses The Motion Picture program continued to grow and gain more popu- larity this year. What made this program unique was the integration of the differ- ent studies, such as writing and produc- tion. The faculty believes in working and studying together, said Dr. Lazarus, the director of the Motion Picture program. The program expanded its belief in work- ing as a team and joined the Southeast Advisory Board under the Eastman Kodak Company. Another surprising development was the business track becoming an impor- tant part of production studentsi course load. It developed a whole new life on its own with the help of the students. Profes- sor Barnes offered a course in documen- tary production and Professor Roberts gave insight into the editing world. The writing students also had something to look forward to: two new writing courses in dramatic structure were added and a third course in adaptation was being planned. Students were also involved with the Cosford Cinema. This resource served several functions: to show entertaining films, to show films that were not usually available at mainstream theaters, and to serve as a room for hosting guest speak- ers. Because of the satellite-based sys- tem, students were able to see sneak previews and even interact with the mak- ers of the movie. I'd like it to be a real center of activity, said Professor Capewell, I don't think it's used enough. The Motion Picture program was a program that constantly wrestled with new technology and other improvements. Therefore, the entire department was very proud of the new building to be completed Spring 2002, which was going to be en- tirely digital. otion Pictures-FacultyiAcademics 151 At a weekly meeting, Diana Alvarez, Cem Gurkok and resident master Pam Fisch! discuss the effectiveness of the tutoring program in the master's apartment.

Diana Alvarez said, ttThe program has been successful because it allows stu- dents to get help from their peers who have gone through the class. Students were more comfortable getting help from other students. Peer tutors are more approachable because you are on their level, said Michelle Boyd, freshman. Or- ganized around a more student-oriented schedule, the resident tutors were avail- able late in the evening. Will Williams, freshman, stated, ti usually donit start my homework until 7pm.

Its main function was to provide students with required textbooks for all of the courses offered on campus. The initial rush for books each semester was a bit hectic, as ex- pected, but nonetheless under control. The only minor problem we faced was the air-conditioning failure, said Catherine Love, the new bookstore director. The University of Miami bookstore also provided everyone with other things, ranging from school and office supplies, some of which were personalized for the university, to computer programs and even popular music. Probably the most popular section of the bookstore, however, was the clothing collection, which went through a major renovation. ttThis year we expanded the childrens section due to the popular demand from the female population for smaller sized shirts, said Ed Moehle, Merchandise Coordinator. Some of the other exciting improvements were the new Ibis logos developed by the University and Nike, a new line of menis and womens Clothing all displaying the logo, new jer- seys and an improved hat collection. photos by erin haas Tuwanna Seymour puts her The bookstores entrance was the most drastic wallet away after buying a book change made this summer.

The Honor Council, consisting of 22 undergraduate students, was the organization that regulated any alleged violae tions of this Code. The Honor Council is the only stu- dent organization with the ability to expel students and we take that responsibility very seriously, said Jim Fatzinger, Graduate Advisor to the Honor Council. Since its inception in 1986, the Honor Council had expelled only 10 students. But according to Fatzinger, more and more cases of plagiarism were being reported each year. If an alleged plagiarism case was brought before the Honor Council, members of the Council took Using teamwork to finish a take home test, students revert to their texts for the correct answer to one of the questions. Marcia Charies reads the variety ofdiffering opinions on the plagiarism issue in the book, Perspectives on Plagiarism. it and cross-Checked it with an anti-plagiarism website designed by UC Berkeley. This website is really cool, said Fatzinger. We send the document in, and within 48 hours, it is returned and any part of the work that has been plagiarized is color coded and indisputable. Much of the UM student body was relatively unaware of the Honor Council proceedings. I didn't really think plagia- rism was that big of a problem at UM, honestly, said Junior Veronica Roca-Rey. I mean, it's never been a problem with me or anyone else that I know. But if it does happen, it's a serious issue that needs to be pun- ished, she said. photos by mark puskarich A student accesses the website schooisuckseom to find a paper relevant to his course assignment. Piagiarism-FacuitylAcademics Gw xi Lue' euegp liq sotoqd Whether it was running to the gym several times a week or sticking to a healthy diet, students tried their best to reach the goals of staying healthy and in shape. Several students found the Wellness Center provided them with ample workout space, and offered them programs in total body fitness to achieve these goals. The Wellness Center was open from 6:30 am. until 11:00 pm. Monday through Friday, and on Satur- day and Sunday, it was available from 8:00 am. until 10:00 pm. The most popular time for students to work- out during the week was from 5:00 pm. until 7:00 pm. This time best suited students because most classes were over for the day. Working out in the morning ben- efitted students by giving them energy to last the entire day. With convenient availability and easy access, the Wellness Center allowed students to keep their bodies in shape. Empowered e Eating healthy and living well are goals for students However, not all students relied on the Wellness Cen- ter to stay healthy. More often than not, the Wellness Center was crowded or machines were booked. As an alternative, some students disciplined themselves by eating right and doing aerobic activity away from the gym. Emily Oshiro said, I run everyday around the campus loop because it is more convenient than going to the gym. Students that did not find the Wellness Center as their outlet to a healthy lifestyle had to main- tain somewhat stronger discipline, as they often ran, swam, or did their aerobic or athletic activity alone, and, therefore, had to push themselves. Students that relied on the Wellness Center more often than not worked out with a partner, or, if they did work alone, were encour- aged by others around them. Whatever lifestyle students chose to participate in, they did their best to reach the goals of healthy body and physical fitness.

Healthy Habits-FacultylAcademics swemgM mes Aq otoud The Writing Center was a place for students to go when they were having trouble finding a topic to write about or just needed help in finishing their paper. Writing Center tutor Gilberto Lucero de- scribed the purpose of the center saying, The Writing Center focuses on helping the students develop their papers, by helping with sentence structure, grammar and the overall structure of the paper. We don't proofread as much as we give them a higher level of thinking to help them with their paper. After sitting down with their personal tutor, students saw mistakes in their pa- pers that they themselves would not have seen if proofreading the paper by them- selves. As sophomore Carleen Case stated, The Writing Center tutor was very informative and offered constructive criti- cism when needed. Some students went to the Center when they felt discouraged and didn't feel they could go on with their paper. As in freshman Francesca Gaspardls case, I went in thinking that the beginning of my paper was trash and would not be able to finish it, but they encouraged me and told me that it was a good paper. They gave me tips on how to improve it and, most importantly, on how to finish the paper Assisting with papers was not the only service that the Writing Center provided. They also helped students with applica- tions to graduate schools and other learn- ing institutions. The Center also had a Grammar Hotline, which students could call to ask questions concerning gram- mar, punctuation and literature, instead of going and meeting directly with a tu- tor.

He didn't advise that she stay away from Calculus II or beginning Russian. Instead, he told her to avoid those classes with an accom- panying required lab class. He told me that since I was a theater major, I probably wouldn't need to take any science classes that had labs. He told me that all the labs he had taken were a waste of time and effort, Serra said. Although it was common knowledge that the number of credits dictated the amount of work, most labs, worth only one credit, required a three-hour class period once a week and more study time than some had thought. When I took the lab for Biology 150, l Es; - was surprised at how much work we had b 1 ' to do for only one credit. We had to memorize phylums, subphylums, and species, and in the final exam, we had to properly name specimen, sophomore Lauren Morgenroth said. x 163 Labs-FacultylAcademics photos by diana lam During one of her Chemistry lab partners Daniel Opris and Sorraya Guillaume labs, Aimee Dehbozorgi pours help eachother to write up a lab report. water into a beaker to prepare Sometimes, lab partners were savior: when no one for an experiment.

Richter Library, it was apparent to him that action needed to be taken immediately to update the facility. Students would tell me that this place was stuck in a time warp. When I first came, we didn't even have internet access, Bosseau said. Since last year, the library had begun to undergo a major face lift, not only cosmetically, but also functionally. The overall plan was to move staff responsible for such things as cataloging and computer support to the third floor. Floors one and two of the building would be devoted strictly to student service. The first floor will be an information commons, where the comput- ers will be accessible, Bosseau said. Renovations to improve the overall appearance of the library in- cluded replacing walls, adding carpet in place of worn out cork tile, and replacing old furniture. I think that the library is very conducive to studying now, because it provides a comfortable and quiet environment. The view is also nice, junior Lisa Regensburg said. photo by mark puskarich Along with the new clock tower came a new set ofstairs in the library.

Library-FacultylAcademics 3 mx Exemv am 1 X F aculty members in the residential The resident masters program at UM ensured that the dorms on campus were more than just a place for students to live. tlt's really a program to help the students feel more at home, said Ash Rothlein, one of the resident mas- ters in Eaton Residential College. The students really seem to get a lot out of it and we, as the resident mas- ters, enjoy it also. Rothlein and his wife Liz, who is the Associate Dean of the School of Education, are in their seventh year at UM. They spent four years in Stanford and are now in their third year at Eaton. We don't want to be the grown ups of the dorm. We don't want the kids to be afraid of us. Something we've come up with to help prevent that is our snack cart. Every other week, we go up and down the floors with a dinner cart and a bell and bring food and snacks to the A 10 kids, Rothlein said.

It's especially helpful for the freshmen who need to meet other kids and interact with everybody, he said. Senior Akilah Johnson thought the program was only as good as each individual resident master, though. I've lived in both Hecht and Pearson and as far as the resident masters go, Hecht was much better. i barely even knew the resident masters at Pearson, but I was over at the master's apartment in Hecht and Stanford all the time, she said. I guess it just really depends on how open and friendly the masters are. As a faculty member, living in one of the residential colleges really gives you a sense of the entire univer- sity community at all levels, Rothlein said. If we didn't have this program, we'd all, students and faculty alike, be missing something. Resi em Masters During a programming team meeting, Erisa Hines.

Wk a fever g L i Students discover different studying methods in order to improve their academic success The syllabus, given at the beginning of the semester, helped students guide, notify, and plan out their assignments. In the beginning, the syllabus flowed as scheduled. Students could handle the work-Ioad by studying and working ahead of time. Taking extensive notes during class allowed students to focus on the work he or she had to do for homework. Reviewing notes every night helped students to study less the night before exams. By forming a study group, students helped each other out when they were having trouble on a certain topic in class. However, after these first few good weeks students would sometimes decide that one night of not studying would not make them fail. This then led students to thinking they could skip a class tor two or threet. Next, the student opted to stop reading the textbook because it was too hard to understand. Forget about working ahead of time; they were just trying to catch up from two days ago. Finally, the night before the test, the student began cramming at 10 o'clock at night and stayed up until 5 o'clock the next morning. What ever happened to that aspiring student? Tannis Carpenter, freshman, felt, This is totally me. I don't know why. I just think it's in my nature to procrastinate. Mahala Dar, freshman, said, That one night of not studying caused that aspiring student to have a snowball effect to histher downfall. Studying at the Richter Library helped many students keep on track, as well as studying in the residential college study rooms or at night in the University Center. Getting a tutor or making an appointment with the professor also helped manyis study skills. Instead of cramming the night before, many students studied during free time, lifting the amount of work. Whatever the case, good study habits were an essential for academic success. Cramming for Organic Chemistry was the norm.

Students of the University of Miami were forced to type and sign an honor statement at the end of essays and reports. On every scantron sheet that was used by professors to administer tests there was a place for a signa- ture, and the tests were not graded unless this line was signed. But one could ask, ttWhat is the Honor Council? What is the Honor Code, and why do we have to abide by it? When the Honor Code was first established in 1986, it was a set of guidelines that was started by the University of Miami Student Gov- ernment that was written to ensure the protection of academic integ- rity at the University. But, after ratification of the code by students, a separate organization, the Honor Council, which got its authority from the office of the Dean of Students, was formed. Honor Council mem- ber Ryan McDavis says, nWhat started out as a small unit that estab- lished the grounds for cheating and plagiarism has transformed into the voice of academic value and integrity for the entire campus? A copy of the honor code could be picked up at the Dean of Stu- dents office in Building 21-H. Under the direction of Dean Sandler, the Honor Council had become a strong force on campus. The mem- bers of the Honor Council worked hard to ensure that each and every degree that was earned at the University of Miami was backed up by honesty and integrity. tos by deanna drora The Honor Code was distributed widely to all students at the University ofMiami. The Code outlined the rights and responsibilities of each student. WW , wwwwagamm Mm Q g $ k gwif$yg$tg ?;Eailimsi W WWQ www stwmw W W qu swggm gar gaiad , Ham ?

Students had to manage their tiworktime and itpiaytime effectively to be successful academically. With excitement, students find time to study and relax All work and no 'play could not be tolerated. Students had to find an equal balance between the two situations. Some students had very rigid routines in which they stuck to in order to have productive days. They made themselves a schedule and tried to follow it as best they could. Planning around their academic schedules was the most difficult part of managing time. How did they do it? Some students wrote down events and appointments, while others plainly remembered them. Using daily planners was very convenient for stu- dents, as they could carry their personal schedules with them at all times and plan according to what they al- ready had scheduled. Others found their computers to be an effective way to hold dates and appointments. Several software programs created a calendar for stu- dents to organize their months effectively. Although planners and computer programs were con- venient to use in order to manage time, some opted not to use them. Instead of recording dates and important appointments, students simply remembered them. This caused problems, since students' memories were not 1000A; effective. Students forgot. In whatever way students chose to manage their time, it was an effort and some were masters of it. Time Management-FacuityiAcademics :i' w At Hem President Edward T.

I would have given you someone else's name to do an interview with. Boring she is not. Labadie, who is the Associate Dean of the School of Nursing, is also a professor and advisor for the school. Labadie is also a Colonel in the United States Army Reserves. The Army Re- serves is a great opportunity to work with people who are developing different parts of their lives, professionally and person- ally, Labadie said. Labadie, through her work with the Army, said she has been able to travel a lot and see different areas of the world. Mov- ing to Miami 20 years ago because of a job opening for her husband, Labadie has been at UM ever since. i absolutely love it here at UM.There is more diversity here than in most other places. It's so rich in culture, Labadie said. This woman who enjoys computer games, logic puzzles, collecting stamps and coins, along with beanie babies, appreci- ates diversity. Most people in this coun- try take their freedom for granted. You should never do that. I don't. I had to live through segregation and the period where blacks weren't able to ride in the front of a bus, Labadie said. All of her experiences have led to her focus on education and the importance of preparedness. I think a person must have curiosity in life. Search for the an- swers to your questions, she said.

He didn t do it on purpose, of course, but then again, he couldn t prevent it either. All of my friends up North hate me because I scuba dive and go to the beach as part of my work, said DiResta. DiResta, a professor at UM who taught Biology, Oceanography, and various other specialties through- out the year, was a key component to the Marine Sci- ence program. Growing up in New York, DiResta began as a social worker. I really just wanted to change the world, said DiResta. But, unfortunately, I didn't have the impact that I had hoped for. From there, I came to UM to get my Ph.D. That was 22 years ago. I loved the beach too much down here to move back to New York, DIResta said. DiResta, who enjoyed sailing, scuba diving, and play- ing guitar, focused much of his research on coral reefs! Funded by nationally recognized organizations such as the National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration, his continuing studies examined the effects of stress upon the coral reef systems. His research was not his alone, though, as his stu- dents were often times deeply involved. DiResta felt that it was a good opportunity for students to get hands-on experience outside of the classroom. Senior Patrick Cooney had DiResta as a professor and an advisor and thought highly of him. He's always there to help the students, rather than other professors who seem to be there simply to pass the time. He truly cares. His door is always open, said Cooney. I really enjoy my work, said DiResta. Hey, how bad can it be to get paid for scuba diving and studying the ocean? he said with a smile. bhoto by cara vvilliamb Front Row: Henryk Labaziewicz, Cecil Criss, Curtis Hare, Luis ' Front Row: Allison Gillespie, Sara Echegoyen, Roger Leblanc, Keith Russel.

She also had a love for art and math; she especially liked to solve mathematical problems. But most importantly she chose architecture because she wanted to make a con- tribution to society that would make things perceptibly better. When it came time to go to college she packed up her things and left for New Orleans. She attended Tulane University and received her Bachelor of Archi- tecture. After graduating from Tulane, she decided to further her education. She went to Cambridge, Massa- chusetts where she attended the prestigious Harvard University and received her Masters of Architecture. After college, Ms. Lombard was involved in many projects. She worked in Fort Lauderdale, Delray Beach, and worked on residential, institutional, commercial projects and completed restoration work on the famous St. Charles Avenue houses in New Orleans. Ms. Lombard decided to come to the University of Miami after talking with some of her colleagues from Harvard. They had met with the then chairman John Steffian and thought he was terrific and that the school had a great future and suggested that she should come down for an interview. Here at the university, Ms. Lombard specialized in the relationship between architecture and the environ- ment. She taught Design classes at all levels, along with Architecture and the Environment, Theories of Land- scape Architecture and Direct Reading. What made Joanna Lombard such an outstanding professor was her teaching methods of hands-on projects, community- based projects, and most importantly, her ability to meet one-on-one with her students. To Ms. Lombard, teach- ing is really a collaboration in discovery and learning with students as full partners. In one of her architecture classes, Professor Lombard discusses the details of 0 students project. Professor Lombard required students to present their projects to the class, Sitting with her students, she listens to a presenter.

Shining 0 Being in- volved with the Residen- tial College system al- lows profes- sor Schumm to get more intimate with her stu- dents Jeanne Schumm was the chair of the department of teaching and learn- ing in the school of education. Part of her job involved researching easier ways to teach children with reading disabilities. With results from her research, she then taught new and innovative methods to the faculty members here at the University and faculty members in Dade County schools. Jeanne not only loved her job teaching administrative faculty and stu- dents, but also loved her otherjob as one of the masters of Eaton Residential Col- lege. As an associate master, Jeanne helped to coordinate events in the college, hosted students for dinners and other functions, and helped in the selection pro- cess of resident assistants. She had been a professor at the University since 1988 and said that the best thing she had done while at UM was to become a master in the residential college system. She felt that by living with students and getting to know them outside of a Classroom set- ting, it gave her trenewed faith in newer generations. Living with students, she was given the opportunity to see them day in and day out. Through this constant in- ' teraction with residents, she was able to set the example of a caring professor, and to make campus life more enjoyable for all residents. Being a master allowed her to meet many new and diverse people, and she explained, the chance to get to know students better. photos by cara williams Front Row: Peter Mundy, Adele Hayes, Gail Ironson, Lynn Durel, Daniel Pals, Joyce Schuld, Stephen Sapp, Dexter Callender, William Jean-Philippe Laurenceau, Steve Sutton, Annette La Greca. 2nd Row: Victoria Dickens, David Kling.

Recarey was entertaining with his quick hand gestures and good humor. At the same time, he challenged his students by encouraging active class participation, and he tried to transmit his curiosity to the students. One student once re- marked, You can't help learning in a Recarey class. Recarey fell into the teaching profes- sion after a career in sales, which led him to teaching Marketing and International Marketing. He received a mechanical engineering degree from the Rensselaer Polytechnic Institute, and later received his executive MBA from UM. In the years leading up to his degree, he worked for CBI, a multinational construction com- pany. Later, he worked at Brown Steel Contractors as Vice President of Interna- tional Sales. He was immediately invited to become part of the UM faculty after receiving his Masters. Recarey said that he discovered his fondness for teaching at UM, iiThe aha moment ithe moment a student learns somethingl gives me a great deal of satisfaction. Outside of school, Recarey owned his own business, Recarey International, and enjoyed running 5K marathons. Recarey International, which began in 1975, was primarily a consulting business for Latin American countries that wanted to pen- etrate the US. market. Likewise, he was also a consultant to the Organization of American States, which was similar to the United Nations. This gave Recarey the opportunity to lecture all over Latin America. Above all, Recarey said, I am an international business man, but teach- ing is the thing I enjoy most. Donna Shalala, former United States Secretary for Health and Human Services was appointed President of the University in the Fall of 2000. Her term began in June of 2001. Shalalats past history in education included her position as chancellor of the University of Wisconsin-Madison from 1983-1993 and her presidency of Hunter College, City University of New York from 1980- 1987. While at Wisconsin, she raised more than $400 million for the school, recruited top-notch research scientists, and upgraded the Universityts academic curriculum. Also, while at Wisconsin, she, earning the title of the first woman to head a Big Ten University, restruc- tured the athletics program. Her addi- tional background in education included professorships at Columbia University, the City University of New York, and the University of Wisconsin. Shalala re- ceived her Ph.D. from the Maxwell School of Citizenship and Public Affairs at Syracuse University in 1970. She has been respected as a great scholar of government and a great leader in public affairs. Shalalats plans for the a University of Miami included the strengthening of ties between the Uni- '89 versity and the community of South Florida and also the improvement of the Universityts relations on the national and international levels.

This was Bld Day at the University ofMiami, and with it came the start ofa cycle that turned young men and women into more thanjust students. To be Greek is not as cut and dry as might seem, indeed it is clear by all the different faces that wear letters, and all the different voices that shout cheers, that the definition of a Greek organization is as broad and diverse as the very campus we live one. The performances that were given during Homecomingis 0r- ganized Cheer, the competition dur- ing Greek Week, the bonding during Chapter meetings define the spirit of Greek life. Through that Spirit and special bond, Greeks constantly show that they are more than just a pretty face.

Each organization spent this time show- casing their accomplishments and outstanding mem- bership in an effort to recruit the best new members available. Every man and woman who signed up for Recruitment was assigned a Recruitment Counselor to aid them in the difficult decision involved in choosing an organization. A Recruitment Counselor was an impar- tial representative of the Panhellenic or Interfraternity system who understood and carried out the purpose and goals of the Panhellenic association. He or she served as a walking encyclopedia of all recruitment and other Greek terminology. The enthusiasm of these vol- unteers was important to convey excitement and en- thusiasm to the potential new member.

Their heritage stems from one source: young men banding together in allegiance. The role of Alpha Phi Epsilon has expanded since its inception in 1913. Initially, the fraternity served as a brotherhood of young men who came from similar religious backgrounds and who had experienced the same prejudices against their religious beliefs. Alpha Epsilon Pi soon broadened its role to include serving as the living quarters for some of its members. The fraternity became a home away from home, providing the same stabilizing and guiding values that students previously gained from their families. Armed with these values, Alpha Epsilon Pi faced changing conditions on the college campus and survived. In the fraternityts 86 year history, over 70,000 men have worn the badge of AEPi and each year, over 1,500 undergraduates perform the Ritual of Initiation, which remains the same since its adoption decades ago.

Three young men, Louis Manigault, Horace Weiser, and Stephen Ormsby Rhea, all freshman, met and laid down the basic principles of a society that today counts its membership in the thousands. Since then Alpha Sigma Phi has maintained a proud tradition of creating and perpetuating brotherhood for good men coast to coast. Dedi- cated alumni have long preserved and enriched the Old Gal's tradi- tion with a vision for the future that exemplifies the experience of the past. Through the years, many brothers have noted that Alpha Sigma Phi made a significant contribution early in their lives. With gratitude, these members have remained loyal and are supportive of the Fraternity's future.

About 300 young women participated in the week long recruitment process. The week con- sisted of a series of formal parties where the potential New Members got to learn about the organizations campus wide activities, philan- thropies, social events, intramurals, and Panhellenic spirit. Aftereach night the potential New Members and Sisters would return back to their rooms exhausted and anxious for the next evening.

Fi Delta Theta-Greeks The Star and Crescent shall not be worn by every man, but only by him who is worthy to wear it. He must be a gentleman, a man of honor and courage, a man of zeal, yet humble, an intelligent man, a man of truth, one who tempers action with wisdom and, above all else, one who walks in the light of God. Kappa Sigma brothers believe that while one will learn a great deal through the brother development pro- gram, he will also experience personal growth, develop a sense of caring for his brothers and others and cultivate the ideal that being a good brother is a lifelong undertaking. Through this process one will become a better man, and a better brother.

It was founded at the University of Miami as a local group in 1962. In received permission from the National Panhellenic Confer- ence to become a national organization in 1974. Today there are 52 active chapters created 38 years ago. The purpose of Rho Lambda is to honor those women within Panhellenic who have displayed out- standing leadership, ability and loyalty throughout their years of so- rority affiliation. The Order of Omega was also founded at the Univer- sity of Miami in 1959. The honor society recognizes outstanding fra- ternity members based on character, integrity, and leadership. Mem- bership is held to the top three percent of all fraternity men, making membership highly selective and a great honor. Both organizations tap new members twice a year, once during Homecoming and once during Greek Week. Each member serves as a role model to the Greek community to help raise the standards for membership, and reputation of the system throughout the community.

A recruiting class that was ranked tt14 by SoccerBuzz, added depth and life to the program. It was the second straight year that Blakenship had put together a nationally ranked recruiting class. Further- more, a it7 ranking in the preseason polls for the South- east region gave reason for optimism. The team returned almost the entire roster, while add- ing a couple of very promising players. Back was sopho- more Allison McWhinney, who burst onto the scene with 10 goals and six assists last season, as well as Lisa Gomez and Deidre Bass. Gomez and Bass, had been named to SoccerBuzzls All-Southeast Region Second Team, as well as to the All Big-East second team, and Big-East freshman first team the previous season. En- tering the fold were High School All-American Nikki Safran, and US. Under-18 National Team member Vonda Matthews. They started the year off with an impressive 7-0 shut- out viotory over Lynn, highlighted by MoWhinneyls two goals and an assist. Next up was a visit from their archrivals, the University of Florida Gators. In front of a record-breaking crowd of 827 at Cobb stadium, the Lady Hurricanes fell by a score of 4-2, with Safran and Gomez scoring for Miami. UM bounced back in style, however, dispatching FAU by a score of 6-2, and then in a very successful road trip, they won the University of Alabama Invitational in Tuscaloosa. The championship came after wins over the Crimson Tide and the Mississippi State Bulldogs. Gomez was named tournament MVP, and the Hurri- canes got set for the start of Big East action. In the Big-East opener, Miami beat providence 1-0, with Laura and Ashley West combining on the score. Following that victory, the Hurricanes went into a mid- season swoon, winning only 3 out of their next 10, in- cluding a double overtime heartbreaker to Jacksonville. They fared better in the Big East, going 2-3 in their division, and 3-0-1 versus the Mid-Atlantic Division. The season ended promisingly with back-to-back wins over foes Georgetown and Rutgers. Miami also clinched the it4 seed in the Northeast Division of the conference, and would go on to face ttt seed Notre Dame in the first round of the Big East tournament.

Prior to the game the Hurricanes honored graduating senior Kazmeen Moolchan, who was one of the members of inaugural squad, back in 1998. The Seminoles 02-5-11 took the lead in the 18th minute when Emma Breland tapped home a rebound that goalkeeper Elizabeth Swinson failed to hold on to. The first half ended that way, although Miami had several chances to tie the score. Florida State iced the game in the second half with two goals in the space of 15 minutes. First, on 55 minutes, Marte Edvardsen scored, and then with 20 minutes to go Edvardsen added her second of the night. The Hurricanes would continue to battle tirelessly, and in the 88th minute struck back on a goal from Deidre Bass, off a corner kick from Lisa Gomez. It was too little too late, however, and Miami was left to rue earlier missed chances. They were unable to convert, although the Hurricanes had out shot their opponent 19-16, and had more corner kicks. The Hurricanes fell to 9-9-1 in the season. A disappointed Jim Blakenship said that he looked forward to taking on Notre Dame in the Big East Championship. uItis a new beginning, and theyire the 1H team in the country, but if we didnt think we had a shot, we wouldnit be going there? South Bend, Indiana would be the stage for Miamits next match. It was a rematch from last years Big East quarterfinal matchup, which the Irish had won. It was a similar story with Miami battling valiantly, but in the end the undefeated Fighting Irish were too much. The Hurricanes did, however, manage to win four corner kicks, more than any other team versus the Irish, and kept the score relatively close for most of the game. Swinson had a season high 13 saves as Notre Dame outshot Miami 30-5. Freshman Vonda Matthews was named to the All- Big East Second team, as well as to the All Freshman First Team. Matthews started all twenty games for the Lady Hurricanes. She showed great versatility, playing both as a forward and a defender, all the while scoring 4 goals and providing 2 assists. Goal!!!

With a pre-season Top 5 ranking, a January Bowl Game victory, and a Heisman Trophy Candidate in the fold, the Hurricanes drew closer to their dream of bringing the glory back to Coral Gables. One for the Thumb was the talk among rabid fans. On a balmy Thursday night against the Division 1-AA McNeese State Cowboys, the Hurricanes romped to an easy 61-14 victory, punctuated by big plays. Heisman Trophy Candidate Wide Receiver Santana Moss had 204 all-purpose yards. This marvelous performance included a 75yd touchdown on an end-around, as well as a trademark 77yd punt return score. Free Safety AI Blades, and fellow Wide Receiver Andre King provided the key blocks that helped Moss break for the end zone. Sophomore QB Ken Dorsey threw three touchdown passes, two of these to Reggie Wayne on identical fade patterns in the end zone. Dorsey also added a 23 yd score to Daryl Jones, who returned to action this year following a red-shirt season. The ground game added 287 yds to balance an offense that produced 628 total yards. Running Back Clinton Portis ran for 133 yds in mostly backup duty, but did rip off an 82 yd score late in the game.

They did, however, come up with key turnovers, including 3 interceptions. Butkus Award Candidate, Linebacker Dan Morgan, anchored a talented corps including Chris Campbell, and Howard Clark.

Getting Back on Track Following a tumultuous bye week, where the talk show radios were inundated with calls regarding the debacle in Washington, the team faced another tough road game. In their Big East Conference opener, they faced the West Virginia Mountaineers, a team that al- ways played tough at home. In front of another selI-out crowd, the Hurricanes, however, and more specifically Ken Dorsey showed great maturity and heart driving to a relatively easy 47-10 victory, this one keyed by the defense. Dorsey played immaculately completing 22 of 33 passes for 291 yards and two touchdowns, both to Reggie Wayne. Wayne had 127 receiving yards, and enough catches to overtake Lamar Thomasi school record of 144 career receptions. The match started inauspiciously, with Moss fumbling a punt that was recovered by the Mountaineers at Miamiis 1 yd line, and West Virginia promptly capitaliz- ing. Miami responded quickly after Leonard Myersjump- started things with a 25 yd interception return for a score. The offense then opened up their account with explo- siveness, but the Miami defense matched the feat with Howard Clark adding another score in the second half off another INT. Defensive Back Philip Buchanon iced the game with a 77-yd fumble recovery for a TD. Coach Davis highlighted the development of Dorsey, saying iTHel gave me an excellent performance, I thought his composure was great and I think the game in Washing- ton really helped him grow as a player. J FOOTBaLL UM 64-6 RU AFinal Tune-Up IBISMVP James Jackson The iCanes held their annual scrimmage against the Scarlet Knights of Rutgers, in their final tune up before their showdown with the Florida State Seminoles.There were concerns that the iCanes may be looking ahead, and Rutgers would undoubtedly try and give their all for embattled Head Coach Terry Shea. The tCanes, however, took care of business with a clinical display of offensive execution, handing Rutgers their worst home loss in 120 years, with a 64-6 rout. Running Back James Jackson, ran for two touchdowns and caught a screen pass from Dorsey for another. Dorsey was his usual modicum of efficiency, com- pleting 14 of 19 passes for 215 yards in less than one half of work, and throwing three more touchdowns. The Miami Defense kept up their recent proclivity for non-offensive scores, putting up 16 more points, which came in the form of two touchdowns - a fumble recov- ery in the end zone by Quincy Hipps, and an intercep- tion return by Mike Rumph - and a safety. The Canes scored on four drives of 79 yards or more, and started to empty their bench in the second half. Freshman Jason Geathers also scored on a 1-yard run, as the backups were given valuable playing time. Coach Davis summed up the teams overall execution saying, ill thought our starters played extraordinarily well, Mi- ami coach Butch Davis said. 1We came out and wanted to get off to a good start.

But this year was different, the Attack was Back, and the tCanes were ready to take it to their intra-state rivals, but could they do it? 0-5 had hung on this coaching staff like a scimitar. For fans, alumni, and students, it was the easiest statistic to remember, but it overshadowed another one. Miami hadn,t lost to a tt1 ranked team in the Orange Bowl since the 1970s. The Canes jumped to an early 17-0 lead, highlighted by a Dorsey to Davenport touchdown and the first career touchdown of Fullback Freshman Phenomenon, D.J. Williams. The defense played spectacularly with two key 4th down stops. One came with Strong Safety Edward Reed batting down a ball headed for the endzone. Middle Linebacker Dan Morgan, crowned another strong performance with his goaI-Iine in- terception off FSU quaterback Chris Weinke to end a scoreless half for FSU. FSU stormed back, and trailed 20-17 late in the fourth quarter. In a position to run out the clock the Canes ran to perfection a wheel route for Najeh Davenport, who got the first down, but fumbled the ball at the end of the play. Weinke drove his team down the field, and hit Atrews Bell in the end zone for the lead. Spurred on by former players; Jim Kelly, Bernie Kosar, Michael Irvin, the Blades Brothers and so many more, the offense took to the field again with determined spirits. In a textbook simulation of the two-minute offense, Dorsey found TE Jeremy Shockey over the middle for the go-ahead score with under a minute to go. FSU got in a position to tie the game on a last second field goal. Dan Mowry and Jeff Wilkins, past FSU kickers, had already made indelible impressions in the UMi FSU lore. Surely, as Matt Munyon trotted on, he was aware of the legacy he didnt want to be part of. The snap, the kick was up, and ........... WIDE RIGHT III screamed the scoreboard of the Orange Bowl. Hurricanes 27-24 FSU, the Hurricanes had overcome what seemed to be an eternal obstacle. Tears flowed, and emotions soared high, especially from the seniors and coaches, who had not obtained a victory over FSU for 5 years. The long wait was over for Miami.

Reed led the team in lNTs Luoouelooqseueo to Aseunoo soloqd Wide receiver Santana Moss takes it to the house. Moss had another typically electrifying performance. Following the euphoria after the victory over FSU, the Hurri- canes traveled to Philadelphia to play an improved Temple Owls football team. Annually recognized as a basement dweller as .- far as Big East Football, Temple made a revival of sorts under Head Coach Bobby Wallace. That, combined with Miami due a let down after an emotional high, made for a dangerous road trip to Veterans Stadium. Miami continued its professional approach, taking it one game at a time, and coasted to a 45-17 victory, despite a rather Iackadaisical approach at times. Once again Miami needed a kick start to get the ball rolling, and who better than the most electrifying player to wear Orange and Green this season, Santana Moss. Taking advantage of poor punt coverage, Moss busted a punt return for a 71 yd score down the sidelines. As Coach Davis put it, tHeis electrifying. He can do so many things? DJ Williams showed the ever-expanding role of the Full Back in Larry Cokeris offense by catching a 17yd pass from Dorsey. Dorsey played efficiently, completing 11 of 22 for 193 yds and two TDs. The second was another highlight-reel in the making to Santana Moss, for 67 yards.

Simi- lar to the week before against Temple, Miami had to keep their focus with a match up against Michael Vick and the Virginia Tech Hokies looming ahead. James Jackson and Santana Moss highlighted a very ane- mic offensive display by Miami, despite crossing 40 in a 42-31 victory. QB Ken Dorsey had his most lackluster game of the year, completing only 16 of 31 for 185 yards, and throwing three interceptions. It was admittedly the poorest performance of ihisl careerii. Miami started off well taking a 21-3 lead, but back came the Bulldogs behind the arm of their QB Luke McCown. McNown threw an NCAA record 72 passes, completing 42 for 418 yds. He did, however, give up interceptions to an experienced Mi- ami secondary. In a repeat of his McNeese State performance, Moss scored on an end-around from 43 yards, and also broke another punt return for a score. The 69-yard return, gave him the Big East record breaking 5th of his career. The Hurricanes also wel- comed back Clinton Portis from a foot injury, as he warmed up for Virginia Tech the following week by rushing 14 times for 86 yards. Of greater concern were the injuries sustained in the game by Free Safety Al Blades, Offensive Lineman Brett Rom- berg, Full Back DJ Williams, and Linebacker Dan Morgan.

In addition, receiver Santana Moss broke Miami's career aIl-purpose yard- age record, and running back James Jackson became the fifth Miami tailback to rush for over 1000 yds in a season. After BC had taken the lead, linebacker Howard Clark got things rolling for the Hurricanes with a momentum changing interception deep in Miami territory. From there on, Dorsey took over. First, he threw a 23-yard touchdown to Moss, and then followed with touchdown passes to Jeremy Shockey, Reggie Wayne, a second to Moss, and Jackson. Dorsey completed 17 of 26 passes for 252 yards. Even backup QB Ethenic Sands got into the mix, completing a three-yard pass to de- parting senior Michael Stewart in the fourth. The Hurricanes dealt the finishing blow with back-to-back punt re- turn touchdowns. Moss started with an 85-yard return, his sixth of the season. A few moments later, Daryl Jones sent the crowd into an- other frenzy with the last score of the game, an 87-yard punt return. Jones spun away from a sea of Eagle tackiers and then turned on the speed, valiantly fighting his way into the end zone. Big East Champions once again, Miami would have to play the waiting game in the hope of playing in the Fed-Ex Orange Bowl Cham- pionship game. Asked about their national title hopes, Linebacker Dan Morgan responded, There's no doubt in my mind we should play for the national championship. It's plain and simple: we deserve it.

Gone were Alex Santos, Michael Neu, and Bobby Hill among others.Yet there still pre- vailed a quiet optimism under Head Coach Jim Morris, because in the past, the Hurricanes had been able to just re-load, having made six straight College World Series trips to Omaha. Things didnt go as planned, however, as injuries took their toll on the team. That, and the inconsis- tency of the bullpen following the departure of Michael Neu, meant that a lot of series Miami had previously swept 3-0, were won 2-1 . Apparently a minor difference, but the impact of these losses was magnified as they added up throughout the season. Miami did, however, hold their annual show- downs against the University of Florida, and the Florida State Seminoles. The Hurricanes went up to Gainesville where they hadnlt won since 1991, but were unable to reverse that trend. They did sweep the series at Mark Light Stadium, though. It was a similar story against Florida state with Miami losing all three at Tallahasse, before winning the three game series in Coral Gables, 2-1. However, a team that Miami had dominated last year in losing only once to FSU, managed to turn the table win- ning 4 of 6 games. Indeed, Coach Mike Martin of FSU probably had his most talented squad in years. Injuries to Vince Vazquez, Troy Roberson for the year, and to World Series MVP Kevin Brown for stretches of the seaon, forced Brian Walker, Kiki Bengochea and Kevin Howard to step up big. Those three, especially Bengochea and Howard, provided most of the positives during the season. Howard finished the season leading the team in Batting Average l.413l, hits l901, doubles 1221 and total bases l1281; and was rewarded with post- season honors being named National co-freshman of the Year, and third-team All American. He was also named to the Louisville freshman All American team, and won UM Team honors for MVP and Rookie of the Year. Coach Jim Morris praised his freshman phenomenon saying 11We knew he had a lot of potential and we had a lot of confidence in him?

Armed with a wicked sinker, Kiki was helped by getting a lot of ground- ers, but pitched pitched well, finishing the sea- son with a 5-5 record and a 3.90 ERA. More importantly, he gained big game experience, while starting during the NCAA Regionals in Coral Gables. He pitched eight innings, giving up only three runs and striking out seven. Coach Morris explained his decision paid off when Kiki went eight strong, saying, tilt saved almost our entire staff for the rest of the tournament. He was selected as third-team Freshman All-Ameri- can and was invited to the Team USA Baseball Trials in Tuscon for the Sydney Olympic Games. nltls been a very exciting experience for me, my entire life I wanted to pitch for Miami and have dreamed of winning a College World Series with them. The Hurricanes entered the post-season not as highly regarded as in previous years, yet were rewarded by being named as host for the Regionals, beating out Florida International, Florida Atlantic and Wagner University. Miami swept the field, winning handedly, but were un- done by their less than stellar regular season performance, being made to face Florida State in Tallahassee. They would play a 3-game, win- ner take all Super Regional. That was one mountain too big to climb, and though Miami battled valiantly, they succumbed to FSU, but took heart from the fact that the Seminoles were eliminated from the College World Series early, with LSU winning it all again. Pitcher David Gil, Manny Crespo and Kevin Brown were all se- lected in the MLB Draft, but of more importance to Coach Morris, was that seven of his recruits were drafted in the first four rounds, five of whom went in the first. The future does look promis- ing, especially with Howard and Bengochea both returning. Mike DiRosa ll4l slides safely into third base off ofa Kevin Howard base hit.

J miaml School Spirit Increases Tremendously This year Student Government began a campaign aimed at ending student apathy towards Hurricane Ath- letics and increasing school spirit. The establishment of Category 5 had a two-fold effect. First, a referendum was passed increasing the Student Activity Fee, and secondly there was an increase in school pride. On the eve of Miamits game versus the Florida State Seminoles, Category 5 sponsored a pep rally in col- laboration with the Athletic Department. Former Hurri- cane, and current Miami Dolphin, LamarThomas agreed to emcee the event, to be held at the Rock. With a lot of the football players present, Thomas got the crowd fired up, as did Sebastian the Ibis, and the Sunsations and Cheerleaders. Offensive Line Coach Art Kehoe, a long time coach here at Miami, also had a few words for the students, telling them to will the team onto victory the following day. Category 5 was also responsible for another pep- rally held on the last day of classes, December tst, to mark the Hurricanes ttDrive for 5 , and a chance for a national championship. It too was well attended, and the Sunsations and Cheerleaders were on hand to en- tertain the student body. Following the announcement that Miami was headed to New Orleans and the Nokia Sugar Bowl, Category 5 organized round trip transpor- tation, accomodation and tickets for students wanting to travel.

Losses to North Carolina at Chapel Hill, and North Carolina-Charlotte, as well as a loss to the University of Ne- braska at the Orange Bowl Invitational, highlighted the youth and inexperience of Perry Clarkis young squad. Miami struggled early on, losing its first four Big East matches, including a loss to the Virginia Tech Hokies, the newest team in the conference. lnterspersed were heart breaking losses to Boston College at home where Miami came back from 19 to take the lead but lose late. Despite improved play, the Hurricanes still found it difficult to overcome their lack of experience, and lost a heartbreaker in overtime to the St. Johns Red Storm at Madison Square Gar- dens. There were plenty of bright spots, however. Marcus Barnes began to show the flashes of brilliance that he was recruited for, and transfer Joe Gordon proved to be a spark off the bench. Junior forward John Salmons, and guard James Jones assumed greater leadership roles, with Salmons often playing point guard. Darius Rice, silky smooth jumper and all, established himself as an often- sive threat from all over the court, and his much improved defence helped Perry Clark instill him at the top of a 1-3-1 zone that proved effective down the stretch.

Ments Basketball - Athletics 297 Ll BaSHETBaLL Hurricanes pull off upset The University of Connecticut Huskies had long since been the elite team in the Big East Conference. Miami had been a long time Big East doormat, who dreamt of competing with UConn. Things changed two seasons ago when the tt1 ranked Huskies marched into the Miami Arena. That night, in front of Miamiis largest home crowd ever, the Hurricanes grew up. Though they lost on a last second missed shot by John Salmons, Miami knew they could com- pete with the best of them. Fast forward to 2001. The Huskies still represented the best the Big East had to offer, ranked tt15 nationally, and this time Mi- ami was a dangerous, yet inexperienced squad, coming off a tough road victory at Providence College. On a day when Miami recognized its Sugar Bowl winning foot- ball team, freshman point guard Marcus Barnes had a stellar game, knocking in 24 points off the bench. John Salmons chipped in with 16, as the Hurricanes defeated the Huskies of Connecticut, 77-74. Miami started strong, building up a 16 point lead, largely due to excellent 3-point shooting. Miami hit a season high 9 three point- ers, six of them dropped in by Barnes. Jim Calhounis team, how- ever, wouldnit give up without a fight, and came roaring back. Caron Butler poured in 25 points, and was assisted in the scoring depart- ment by Albert Mourning and Edmund Sanders, both of whom had 14 points. With the game tied heading into the final minute, Salmons took over the game knocking in two free throws and dunking the ball with 11 seconds to go.

J BaSHETBaLL A rebuilding year for Miami Coming off an NIT appearance, and a decade of unparalleled success, Coach Ferne Labati hoped to continue the winning tradi- tion she had established at Miami. However, losing star Gina Graziani to graduation proved to be a large obstacle to overcome once the season rolled around. Despite early season bumps with losses at cross town rival Florida International University, Miami, led by Sheila James and Chavinia Broussard helped the Hurricanes beat Kentucky for the first time in school history. Miami would also win the Gatorade Holiday Classic with wins over New Hampshire and the Michigan Lady Wolverines. The roller coaster season continued in the new year with Miami going on a five game losing streak, four of them to conference opposition. February brought renewed hope, however, with Miami posting five straight conference wins, highlighted by an away win at Seton Hall. Broussard averaged close to 13 points per game, ably assisted in the scoring department by James who averaged close to 11. Guard Meghan Saake led the team in assists, performing well de- fensively as well. Saake, Broussard and James formed a solid core, who should return next year to help Miami contend for a Big East crown and a high ranking at the NCAA tournament.

Organizations No Chanting, Du Mi; Tzst Know How to Protect Voutszu By Miranda Mulligan Anyone can have HIV without knowing they have it. The virus can be prevalent for ten years before developing into AIDS. The only way to be sure of your health, and to protect yourself and loved ones is to get tested about every six months. Over the past couple years AWARE, the Universityis HIV and AIDS awareness club, had been bringing totally free and completely anonymous HIWAIDS testing to the student body. This year, the Club used a group called Locktown, from northwest Miami. This service was provided as an activity for Volunteer Awareness Week. Locktown used a test called OraSure, which tests for HIV antibodies by collecting oral specimens to be sent to a lab and inspected. Confidentiality and students privacy were highly confidential during the three days of testing at the University Center. AWARE did tvolunteer activities, peer education certification classes, and beginning this year, advocacy work for AIDS Rights, said Lorena Diaz, the clubs president. The peer education certification classes were part of a program teaching youths to educate their peers about HIWAIDS. AWARE participated in a number of volunteer activities including Project Cradle, Food For Life, and Positive Connection. They also participated in activities with Mothers with Voices, an organization of mothers who lost children to HIWAIDS. Their biggest event was World AIDS Day on December ist.

Vanessa McConviIle, the Head of the Advisory Board, along with fellow members Ines Chavez, Erisa K. Hines and Marianne Grunwaldt set up a fundraiser in which engineering students were auctioned off to the highest bid- der. itltls funny because initially it wasnit a serious idea? said McConviIle. We were all sitting around one night trying to figure out what to do for a fund-raiser, and someone suggested auction- ing off the engineering students. We all laughed at first, and then said, Hey, thatis not such a bad Auction Engineers-To-Bz Up Fat Bid 1!, idea. The purpose of the auction was to help raise money for the estab- lishment of a scholarship fund in honor of Cathy Pappas, an engi- neering advisor who died of can- cer in 1999. tiWe all loved her very much? said McConviIle, tand we felt that this scholarship was a good way to do something special for her. McConviIle, who was a senior majoring in Industrial Engineering, helped organize the engineering students to participate in the auc- tion. Students offered their ser- vices to whomever was willing to pay. This is not a dating auction. were not making romantic matches here. What we are doing is selling tasks. Some of these stu- dents might be willing to tutor you in a class, mow your lawn, wash your car, bake you a cake, or cook dinner, etc, said McConviIle. One of the 30 engineering stu- dents who participated in the auc- tion was Shawn Kallivayalil. til think this was a good idea. It could have been advertised a little better to get more people out here, but overall, it was fun. I really did it because of Cathy Pappas. She was my freshman advisor and she was just awesome. I have so much respect for the woman and I felt this was a way to show that, said Kallivayalil. The establishment of the schol- arship required an initial fundraising of $25,000.

Organizations 00 U1 Love 4'; Love GLBC Hosts Coming Out Wuk By Samantha Riepe All around campus during the week of October 9th, banners fea- turing a cow with multicolored splotches hung in the Breezeway, residential college lobbies, and numerous other places. Beside the colorful cow stood a word stat- ing the obvious: COW. What many might have thought was an advertisement for Dairy Farmers of America was actually ttLactasiaii, the mascot of Coming Out Week 2000, a 5 day on-campus event sponsored by the GLBC Gay, Lesbian, and Bisexual Commu- nityi. The spots of the cow repre- sented the six different colors of the gay pride flag? junior GLBC President Mike Holt explained. Coming Out Week, which cen- tered around National Coming Out Day, was held in the hope to make members of the UM community aware of sexual minority issues. This years theme was ttLove is Loveii, a message that looked be- yond simple tolerance to convey understanding and acceptance. The theme was devised by one of the members of the GLBC execu- tive board. Two events that were designed specifically to spark awareness of sexual minority issues took place during the week. The first was a panel discussion in which a mod- erator threw out questions for dis- cussion by a panel of students of varying sexual orientation. Then, the following Thursday night, a candlelight memorial walk took place, to honor Matthew Shepard, a 21 year-old University of Wyo- ming student who was beaten to death by two men in 1998 be- cause he was gay. til played piano at the memo- rial walk. I think it is important to recognize what happened to Mat- thew Shepard, and honor his memory, freshman Robin Herman said. Finally, the week came to an end with an information fair: uOne campus, One Loveit, at which people were invited to relax to the sounds of a DJ and reflect on the weeks events, as well as gather information on sexual issues. ttOverall, I was very pleased with the week. It went by with no problems and it gave us a won- derful opportunity to bridge the gap. I was especially pleased with the number of straight people who attended the events. That really shows that UM is becoming a more accepting community? Holt said. BOND Cherison Cuffy; Second Row: Rubin Jean, Kerrol CodaiIo-Neison.

Organizations 0 MMQT to m Rescue cfudznts Hap Mammals In Need By Michelle Musicer Marine Mammal Stranding Team lMMSTy at The University of Miami was a very active and popular student-run organization under the direction of various agencies such as the National Marine Fisheries Service tNMFsy and the Marine Animal Rescue Society tMARsy. It was ta 24-hour emergency response team of trained student volunteers from all majors with a common interest in the marine sciences, stated a former officer of the organization, Nadiera Sukhraj. The Marine Mammal Stranding Team offered students opportunities in assisting with rescues, researching, and the rehabilitation of marine mammals that had been stranded in the South Florida region. tWorking with the Marine Mam- mal Stranding Team has provided an opportunity to work with some of the most amazing creatures in the world. It has been a fun, re- warding and educational experi- ence. I have not only been able to gain hands-on experience work- ing with dolphins and whales, but also met great people working for the same cause along the way. I know the memories will last for the rest of my life? commented Denise Patel, an officer of MMST. The personal experiences gained from working with these marine mammals enabled student volun- teers to participate in educational outreach activities. This organi- zation was not only beneficial to the community and the stranded and sick marine mammals, but also to the students who gained first hand rescue experiences and the personal satisfaction of saving the lives of these remarkable mammals.

W E .2 8 .E E c c. L o Cultuta! ' Food Pcst 9 Taste Di Jamaica By Adam Glassman ti love seeing different aspects of peoples culture, said junior Candice Gonzalez. Thatis one of the things that I love about Miami- there are so many different groups here willing to expose their culture to us. The Organization for Jamai- can Unity was certainly willing to do that when they shared their food with UM at a cultural food fest held on the UC patio. Filling the air with the smell of curry chicken, jerk chicken and rice, O.J.U. let peopleis stomachs, taste true Ja- maican flavor. tWe hold these once a semes- ter to raise money for O.J.U.,ii said O.J.U. President Rhea Sancassani. We do other things as well, like car washes and Ja- maican beef patty sales, but the majority of our fundraising comes from these food festivals. We dont make any profits on this in- dividually? Sancassani said, tbut we do use the money for O.J.U. T-shirt productions, trips, dinners and the annual Thanksgiving din- ner that we do. Zinnia Perez, a senior, was on the UC patio when the food festi- val was taking place. It was cool, Perez said, til like the diversity around here and thats just one small example of that. As for the food itself? itWeII, Perez said, it was good...but it wasnt Jamaica.

Organizations 327 Mind A? I Body Fencing, Builds stamina, spud and 954151,; By Samantha Riepe My name is Inigo Montoya. You kill my father. Prepare to die. The popular quote from the classic movie The ttPrincess Bride could be heard over and over again every Tuesday and Thurs- day night in Multipurpose Room B of the Wellness Center. These were the nights for fencing club meetings, and Montoyals pre-duel threat was almost like a club motto. ttYoulll always hear us saying that. lthink almost everyone owns that movie on tape, or has read the book? President Brandon Dia- mond said. The club boasted about 25 members, with many new mem- bers that had never fenced before. This was the first year that the club had a professional instructor to teach amateurs. ttFencing builds stamina, strength, speed, and agility. It uses the mind and the body, Dia- mond said. Because the club did not com- pete against other clubs, most found the club to be very relaxing with little stress and pressure. ttln this club specifically, you can really be yourself. The main reason I kept coming back is not only that I like the sport, but be- cause I could really talk to people and enjoyed being here? junior and club vice president Courtney Conner said.main reason I kept coming back is not only that I like the sport, but because I could re- ally talk to people and enjoyed being here? junior and club vice president Courtney Conner said.

Organizations Hispanic I Hztv'tasz Dominican gnaw; Czldmtz Hispanic Culture By Juan Pena It was Thursday afternoon. The halls of the UC resonated with the sounds of merenguero Sergio Vargas, and the sense of smell was enticed by the smell of platanos maduros. Welcome to little Santo Domingo; the weekly meeting of United Dominican As- sociation. Founded in March of 2000, UDA was chartered with the mis- sion to promote Dominican culture here on campus as well as in the general community. There are many stereo- types and negativities associated with Dominicans, said founder and President Mileyka Burgos. liWe feel none of us identify with nega- tivity, so it was important for us to let the beauty of our culture be known on campus? As small nation, what the Dominican Republic lacks in ma- terial wealth, it makes up in the love and affection of their people. UDA has wasted little time since its beginning. The organiza- tion participated in International Week 2000, filling UM with the sights and sounds of the island.

Diwali, a Hindu holiday meaning tithe Festival of Lights? celebrated the phenomenon of light. UM students performed many dances in celebration of the heli- day. iiOne of the reasons for hav- ing the show was to add cultural diversity to the UM campus, said Bo Shah, a sophomore. tilt gives me an opportunity to experience my own culture as well as allowing others to discover it? said Shah. tilim sure that many students on campus are not aware of the vast diversity in the Indian culture, and this production gave us, the ISA, an opportunity to open their eyes? Junior Priscilla Cha Fong ex- pressed her amazement of the culture, saying til never knew In- dian culture was so interesting and amazing. The dances were beau- tiful. We never seen anything like it! ISA was prepping for months prior to production time. Some students were practic- ing twice a week for months, said Shah. itWe started at the end of September to prepare for the four- hour production, but it was worth it.

Organizations 347 Makini splash; Beta tha Bcta Host A Pool Party By Adam Glassman Beta Beta Beta was an honor society specifically designed for those students who were major- ing in the biologys and wished to participate in activities relating to their major. Alberto Caban, Jr., the Presi- dent of Beta Beta Beta, said, The main goal is to provide people with as much exposure to Biology as possible outside the classroom? Started in 1948, the Miami chapter of Beta Beta Beta had been active up until last year. Be- cause of small membership and internal problems, the organiza- tion collapsed last year, but re- grouped this year. itCurrently, the club member- ship is around 41 members? said Caban. There were two types of mem- berships: active and associate. In order to become an active mem- ber, a student had to complete 9 credits in Biology, major in one of the biological sciences, have a GPA over 3.0, and pay a $60 life- time membership fee. Associate members did not ful- fill the requirements needed for ac- tive members, but they were still allowed to participate in club func- tions and activities. Dr. Dana Krempels, a Biology professor, was the faculty advisor for the group. ttShe is really great, said Caban. tShe takes an active role, but lets the students take com- mand. She gives advice, but doesnt make the final decisions. The three main areas of our organization are learning and tu- toring, fun activities, and fundraising, said Caban. Each is designed with a focus on Biology and for those of us who enjoy Bi- ology, it really gives a good oppor- tunity to have some fun?

Symbolic of the ttGlobal Warming Campaignii being held by Earth Alert and the World Wildlife Fund, the bear held a sign that read: ttTelI President Clinton to stop Global Warming and save my home. Its time to turn down the heatt ttGlobal Warming, arguably one of the biggest environmental problems the nation faces today, has already started to melt some of the polar ice caps, the home of many polar bears? said junior Kristina Trotta, Treasurer and fundraising chair of Earth Alert, UMls environmental student group. ttThe melting of the ice caps will not only result in the loss of habitat for the animals, but also in the loss of wildlife itself? Trotta said. But, Trotta stated, uPolar bears arentt the only ones suffering from Global Warming. Almost everything on the planet is feeling its effects. Any environmental problem that you can think of can be related to Global Warming. We need to take care of this problem first. To raise awareness of this growing problem, several members of Earth Alert and the World Wildlife Fund stationed themselves at the Rock, prompting passersby to sign the petitions, nInternet cards , and the giant postcard on the table. The petitions were sent to worldwide leaders. The Internet cards-E-mail petitions were sent to President Clinton via E-mail, and the giant postcard, with a message about Global Warming and several signatures, were sent to U.S. Undersecretary of State for Global Affairs Frank Loy. Junior Natalie Schroeder, a member of Earth Alert for three years, said they received 240 petition signatures and 180 Internet cards. Matt Brewer gained attention for the cause last week by parading around campus dressing up in red and orange camouflage gear and mask. He stopped students and faculty and asked them to sign the pehhons. ttltls vitally important for students to be aware of the issues surrounding us, said Brewer. nOur job as world citizens is to have a voice and be heard. This petition is the best way for us to be heard.

WSe hope other will see and in turn, they will want to help. The club set up camp outside the UC on the Rock and were expecting to stay out there all night. Everyone took blankets and whatever they needed to get through the night. We thought we were going to sleep out on the rock all night until our advisor called us in under the Breezeway, said member Carolina Hernandez, senior. Homeless people dont have the opportunity to come in out of the rain. The purpose of the tlSleepoutt was to heighten the sensitivity on campus. The people that did sleep out there wont forget how uncomfortable and cold it was? said Hernandez. They will look differently at the homeless people out on the street?

Senior Advertising and English major Things Ilve picked up along the way Know when you can drunk, Know when to stay sober, Learn when to discern When the party is over. Build up your bridges, Try hard not to burn them, Break all the rules, But first you must learn them. Try to smile for no reason, Learn to be a good kisser, Tell your grandma you love her, Some day soon you will miss her. Speak up your mind, But watch what you say, Id rather be clever Than wise any day. Remain true to your hear, But make sure you can find Your way back to the start These are all things I ve picked up on the way, ....... Just remember......... Life 3 a bitch then you die, So have a nice day.

Student Board of Publications The Student Board of Publications is the body that was in Charge of maintaining and distributing both student Pub- lications: The Miami Hurricane and IBIS Yearbook. Every month the board was given an update on the progress of each publication and assisted in any problems that might have been encountered. This year the Student Board of Publications welcomed a new Miami Hurricane Editor each semester as well as the IBIS Yearbook Editor-in-Chief. Gariot Louisna was the editor in the fall of 2000 and Jessica McNeil was elected to run the paper in the Spring of 2001 . Platon Alexandrakis was elected as the IBIS Yearbook Editor. Orestes Q Hernandez continued as the Buisness Manager of the Miami Hurricane. During the monthly meetings at the George A. Smathers Wellness Center conference room the board dis- cussed ways to keep the high level of quality of the prod- ucts as well as issues on the buisness side. Student input was always welcomed at the meetings. The board had another successful year of keeping problems to a mini- mum and at the same time always improving the prod- ucts. photo by Jorge Galvez Front Row: Denise Krakowski tSPJ Rem, Jessica McNeil tHurricane Editort, Oreo Hernandez tHurricane Business Managert, Bob DuBord tFinancial Advison.

Gariot Louisna was the editor in the Fall of 2000 while News Editor Jes- sica McNeil took over the duties in the Spring of 2001. Despite the editorial change the staff remained in tact and always worked hard to improve the quality of the paper. Color issues were more prevalent this year with three issues having color photos. The issues covering the Mi- ami-FSU football game, Miami-Vir- ginia Tech football game and the Sugar Bowl game were all published in color. Extensive coverage of the Sugar Bowl was the highlight of the year for the sports section as they were al- lowed to travel to the game and cover it in person. Photo editing jobs were shared this year between Russell Wojtusiak and Jorge Galvez, and along with that change the quality of photos im- proved. The more frequent use of color was possible only because the buisness side of the paper did so well. Oreo Hernandez kept everything in check, and increased the number of ads in the newspaper to raise more money. Long time Staff Associate Connie Lackey left, and was replaced by Samia Siddique who worked at the buisness office during her college days at UM. Overall the year went well for the Hurricane and continuous improve- ments were seen throughout the pa- per.
