When Jozelle Cox sang That ' s What Friends Are For in the SPACE Show-off finals, she took a chance on the stage and sang from her heart. Jozelle ' s inspiration and song not only won her the $500. scholarship but also touched those who listened. Spltzi Ursin Ten minutes between classes may not seem like much, but it is enough time to get in a few good words with a friend. Juniors Mary Cloos and John Lavorato catch up on lost weekend ' s news before heading to class. Amy Kremer Sometimes thoughts of exposure frighten us be- cause they con make us vulnerable. But, that is why we need to be exposed, Friends, coaches, professors build our confidence when they expose themselves to us. We, in turn, share ourselves, our strengths, our weaknesses. We volunteered to help out at the Special Olym- pics Basketball Tournament, played the guitar at Sunday Mass, tutored a freshman Spanish student. We contributed a few goals to an intramural soccer team, voiced suggestions in an ethics class de- bate, submitted artwork to decorate the walls of Benson. We gave it our best when performing in SPACE ' S Show-off talent program. We were there for a friend who was going through hard times. Yet, we went through hard times, too. Maybe we failed a midterm and broke down in tears or opened up in a relationship only to be dumped. It was during these times that we felt vulnerable, scared to take a few chances. But, for the most part, the good times outweighed the bad. Believe it or not, people depended on us to EXPOSE ourselves, our thoughts, our feelings. —Amy Kremer Spitzi Ursin Students Michael Freeman and Jeff Bracco entertained many in Mayer Theatre ' s production of That Scoundrel Scapin. The ploy ran from February 26 to March 5. Student Life

The mission church, the Jesuit philosophy, the close-knit community atmosphere, giving us a supportive environment in which to grow. Interesting faces offering new friendships and ex- periences. A different academic calendar bringing us to class instead of to the beach on Wednesdays. A professor ' s friendship outside of the class when we go one-on-one with Zorn or Logothetti in basketball. For those of us who were freshmen, we were exposed to a new and different freedom, to 50 cents a load laundry instead of mom ' s cleaning service, to living with a stranger in a 12x9 room, Yet, we also saw new restraints on this freedom: no tailgating at Leovey, police foot patrol on a Satur- day night. Exposure didn ' t limit itself to our immediate campus. Some of us experienced different cultures, different teaching approaches, different languages in Italy, France, Spain, Japan. . . . During this election year, we Vv ere bombarded with several candidates and many views. We listened to Gorbachev and Reagan speak. We welcomed Pope John Paul II. And then, there were those three hours of biology lab and formaldehyde. Coach Oldham ' s batting tips. The weary, gaunt faces of the homeless at St. James ' Pork, One hundred multiple choice questions staring us in the face. Notional television footage when the WCAC Tournament come to town. We definitely were exposed to a lot! —Amy Kremer Exposure to deadlines and stress was part of the game when thesis time came around. Communication majors Diane Vais and Pete Sobrero were faced with late nights and little time when doing their senior thesis on the media habits of the elderly. Paul Lindblad College ball requires a commitment that often exceeds that in high school. Freshmen Drew Miller and Brett Bacl man chose to try out college ball and played for Santo Clara ' s baseball team. Opening

Such a schedule scared off many rowers, but senior Jill Radar stuck it out for four years. The women ' s varsity crew depended on Jill ' s strength to pull them through the season.
