These events have, in one way or another, captured the imagination, curiosity, and countenance of peo- ple the world over. In ad- dition. the recollection of these occasions en- compass memories. Those of students who left possibly the only home they had ever known to embark on a journey of knowledge. A year in the life of a college student is one of freedom and growth. Learning new responsi- bilities and skills influ- ence the student to shape the ideals and ex- pectations of the world around them and how it can changed. This pro- cess of growth often goes unnoticed by the stu- dents. but none the less occurs. The staff of the The Moroccan has placed their efforts to re- cord the transition of students during this pe- riod of their lives. Work- ing hard, the staff has collected photos and written about the events and the people of the year that have affected our lives. These events have occurred all over the world - not just on the campus of the Uni- versity of Tampa. The photos contained on the pages of this book will remain forever with the students, influenc- ing decisions and choices for the rest of their lives. Enjoy here the dedicated effort of our staff to place the events of 1988 INTO ORDER . 4 OPENING Staff investiga- tors have placed their eyes and camera lenses into the far recesses and corners of the campus. Whether it’s a rousing game of full contact rugby with their grandmothers, or the trauma of a daytime soap opera (is it true Felicia is thinking about becoming a nun and Frisco has decided to get a real job?), students, upon arrival at the Uni- versity. find that college is a new learning experi- ence. The concept of ma- turing and accepting new responsibilities while away from “home” is soon realized (to the horror of some stu- dents) . Whether its cleaning the inch of toothpaste out of the bathroom sink that has been sitting for seven months, or forcing one’s self out of bed after real- izing that you have mis- sed three classes, break- fast and lunch, many students soon learn to accept these tasks in stride. It is not surpris- ing to hear at least one freshman, after coming to the conclusion that mom is not going to write an excuse, mutter that this is sooo differ- ent from high school . For the new student, the word “home” comes to be appreciated more and even takes on a new meaning during the four years spent in college learning the tools of a trade. During the years spent in college, stu- dents often claim that they live in Tampa. This is reinforced even fur- ther when the UT stu- dent can name the dates of the holidays such as Gasparilla that arc cele- brated only in Tampa. OPENING 7 It is important to recognize the two types of students that attend the Univer- sity of Tampa. Resi- dents are those students who elect to live in the housing offered on cam- pus. One of the first les- sons in responsibility learned by these individ- uals is laundry. With mom no longer around, students typically pro- crastinate doing their wash until a) they run out of underwear, or b) their roommate runs out of underwear. In addi- tion. residents learn oth- er lessons in challenging encounters. Many real- ize the significance of this observation when the neighbors are asked to decrease the music (which sounds like a construction site back in New York) from their grand fiesta, and in re- sponse a keg is bounced on the requesters door. Fancilful spray art de- picting scenes from a third rate film are then generously applied to the other door and de- tante is never estab- lished. Resident Assis- tants. students who function as leaders on each floor of a resident hall, are then called to rescue the dangerous sit- uation. Roommates are enough to supervise much less the problems between neighbors. Pet- ty jealousies and greed are harvested when rooming with a stranger. For example, it has been said that two room- mates found a “hot date , and One of the Girls. upon discovery of the monumental lust the two were about to develop for the same in- dividual. took it upon herself to explain to the lucky guy about her roommate’s unfortunate sexual dysfunction. 8 OPENING Commuter stu- dents were not without their problems either. The co- matose state in which many commuters seemed to wander around the halls was the result of arriving on campus at 6:30am in or- der to park within a rela- tively close distance of Plant Hall. Even at such an early hour, the com- petition was intense and many students could be seen parking in many unusual places. During the first week of school, one student was quoted as saying “I haven’t had this much fun since I rode the bumper cars.” His analogy may have been correct. The close quarters of parking spaces didn’t leave much room for error on the part of the parking individual. The long hike to reach the classrooms was enough of an experience to make students forget about class and go to the game room in the Uni- versity Union. The rush there to get a choice locker in the Student Union was no easy task either. Desparate com- muters could be seen scouting out the lockers which were soon to be vacated, not by their own choice, but by the fierce welding torch of the administration. Stu- dents who did not sign out the lockers found this lesson out the hard way. Many commuters could be found in the commuter lounge on the fourth floor of Plant Hall. Other activities of the commuter could be found around the cam- pus, however paying homage to the great sun god was not a study to be taken by the com- muter. Most residents were left to this task. OPENING 11 Academic stud- ies were next in our study of student life. Getting ones life into order is no easy task. The competi- tion once again is fierce. For instance, parents cannot comprehend the sheer terror of “the line” during registration. This process is simple for older students, sim- ply wait in line and re- ceive your classes. How- ever to the fresh under- graduate, being told that the class you need is filled is similar to the trauma experienced when told that “Purple Passion” eye color has been discontinued by Clinique. The rush to find substitute classes in the mass confusion leads students to taking classes such as “SAF-T 101 Underwater Safety with Power Tools”. The shock and result- ing stress can be blamed on the few unusual stu- dents who happen to re- ceive all their classes without facing adver- sity. These sneakly indi- viduals have found the way to beat the sys- tem” and have no desire to shore this with the rest of the world. During exams the true evil nature of the student is best exhib- ited. A favorite trick of many is resorting to un- derhanded schemes when facing the “test from hell”. One may tell all their classmates that the exam has been can- celled and then pull an all nighter to best pre- pare and blow the curve. With the acquisition of this vast array knowl- edge, it is important for the college student upon arriving home to always appear to know and have a through under- standing of what is go- ing on, even if they 12 OPENING ei ONINHdO Of course social- izing is why ev- ery one goes to college, right? We can’t leave that minor activi- ty out of our collegiate investigation. The thought that somewhere on campus there is a great party going on which you are not en- joying is enough to drive one crazy over night. The communal sharing of a pitcher of beer and some cheese flavored na- chos is the idea of a per- fect evening for some in- dividuals. and then there is the rest of the campus. Parading in sheets (if sheets at all), floundering in the foun- tains, eating frozen burrito for dinner and then sleeping when there is nothing better to do is the typical week- end for the rest of these party warriors. Going to parties because one doesn’t have to bring back empties and rea- soning that it's OK to drink because that’s why God created taxis” is the prime justification and reasoning for the ac- tivities of this animal. As David Lee Roth once said, “If you can’t afford taxis, get yourself two gals who are too young to drink and have them drive. Girls the reverse of this works as well. Just moke a few adjust- ments to the formula . It isn’t as though col- lege is all studying. The blowout parties are a necessary part of main- taining sanity when studying the history of plasma and the effect this has on our lives. The simple fact is that we must all maintain a vari- ety in our lives or we stagnate. Social events fullfil this purpose. With these ideas ex- plored, we can now understand the reasoning behind some of the crazy peo- ple and activities found here at the University of Tampa and chroni- cled in the 1988 Mo- roccan. Look for yourself and discover the peo- ple, places, and events that have made the University the place it has become. The con- cepts and originality have been placed “Into Order” between the two covers of this book, the 1988 Moroccan. for your enjoyment. 1 118 STUDENT LIFE s T U D E N T L I F E 1988 MOROCCAN | STUDENT LIFE 19| Last spring the Rathskeller was plagued with problems ranging from thirteen violations of the County Health Ordinance to lack of compli- ance with the drinking age. The Rat was reopened this fall with a new owner, a new alcohol proce- dure. new cleaning methods, and new equipment in an effort to alliviatc last years problems and to provide, as Jeff Klepfer, Dean of Students explained, “an opportunity for faculty, staff, and students to come together.” The Rat was operated by Papa Louis Pizza last year, and because problems that arose could not be re- solved through them, this year the university chose to run the Rat itself and hired former UT police sergeant. A1 Piotrowski, to manage it. Piotrows- ki was described as “firm but fair” by Harold Schmclzcr. Director of Admin- istrative Services, and full of tremendous enthusiasm and effort.” by Klepfer. Although the Rat continued to serve alcholic beverages to people of legal age with proper identification, the alcohol was not permitted to leave the bar area, which was separated by a latticework wall. A bouncer stood be- tween the dining area and the bar to check ID’s, and verified them against a computer printout of the dates of birth of all students. The bouncers were no longer student employees so there would be no peer pressure, said Schmelzer. and anyone with a phony ID was sent to UT's Judical Baord. We have to get across how im- portant it is. It’s not another sanction that we won’t enforce,” said Klepfer. Last summer Piotrowski led a crew that scrubbed, disinfected, and painted for three weeks • with the re- sult that not a single health violation was found in the subsequent inspec- tion. During the year, a custodian cleaned the Rat daily from 9 am to 5 pm. five days a week. Along with increased health stan- dards. the Rat also received new equipment behind the bar. new Pepsi dispensers, quality meat and produce, free popcorn, and a new menu with more variety and lower prices as part of its renovation. The Rat was given a $100,000 budget from the university and its only motive through the year was to break even, not gain a profit. Part of the money was also used to provide live entertainment and in conjunction with Student Government, resulted in DJ's at the Rat on Tuesday and Fri- day nights as regular events, as well as other special ones. :ot£o in the i V ' ' AMF OF F?r foK thfv iv SHAU- 22 STUDENT LIFE — Approximately $450 million con- doms were sold in 1987, as opposed to $212 million five years ago. — In laboratory tests the AIDS - causing HIV can’t penetrate nondefective latex condoms. — Tests of condoms in past included tests for leakage, “tensile strength and ultimate elongation, ’’and deteri- oration rates. — New tests instigated this year were an air burst test to see if con- doms can withstand rapid inflation, and tests for permeability, resistance to friction, and the effect of lubrica- tion and aging on latex. — As of October 31 the FDA had tested 78,238 condoms from sam- pling of 321 batches. —• Among those approved for sale, the FDA said the average rate of leakage has been 3.3 per 1,000. — The FDA also announced last spring that lambskin condoms can’t be labeled as helping to prevent sexu- ally transmitted diseases, including AIDS. - 4 Tribune photograph by John Coffetn. It can be killed by a spot of house- hold bleach, yet it’s lethal once in- side the body. It attacks key com- ponents of the immune system, and cripples the very system which is sup- posed to destroy it. In this, the seventh year since it was diagnosed as '‘the cen- tury's greatest killer.” the AIDS virus has left conflicting images of advances and setbacks, fear and hope, and finally, life and death, in the minds of all the world. Many advances made this year were in the areas of genetic susceptibili- ty, vaccines, virus-slowing drugs, and detection methods. Researchers at St. Mary's Hospital Medical School in Lon- don determined that some people may be more susceptible genetically than others to the AIDS virus, possibly due to the inherited shape of a protein called vitamin D-binding factor. At Johns Hop- kins Hospital in Baltimore, three asymptomatic men who had tested posi- tive for AIDS, suddenly retested nega- tive, and with no explanation were en- tirely free of AIDS antibodies. Other ad- vances included several vaccines devel- oped to successfully produce AIDS antibodies, but had yet to be tested on the live virus. Some researchers expressed doubts about whether an effective vaccine could be developed against AIDS be- cause the cause of the disease is a retro- virus that mutates five times faster than the influenza virus • formerly thought to hold the mutation speed record. This doubt caused a renewed push toward de- velopment of drugs to at least hold the AIDS virus off. By the end of the year, the FDA had ap- proved about forty drugs for testing and, in four months instead of the usual twenty four, approved Zidovudine (formerly known as Azido- thymidine. or AZT) which would pro- long lives by hampering the replication of the AIDS virus. In addition, a new antibody test, in which a few drops of blood serum placed on a paper blotter containing chemicals would detect HIV antibodies within five or ten minutes, was developed by the DuPont Company. Not only was the new test faster than previous HIV tests, but also did not require refrigeration, making its use much more widespread. Despite the new developments in medicine and education, a powerful mix of fear and ignorance persisted. Ex- amples included Clifford and Louise Ray who tried in vain to send their three AIDS positive sons to school in Arcadia, Florida. The situation abruptly ended when the Rays moved to nearby Saraso- — Tin pi Tribune pU rogriph ty Robert Burke. ta after their house was burned by an ar- sonist. While 120 of the 615 students stayed away from school upon the ar- rival of the Rays in Sarasota, only a doz- en remained withdrawn after a week of attendance by the brothers. Fear was also present in a small Indiana town, when a swimming pool was closed for cleaning after an AIDS-positive man was seen swimming there. Support for those suffering from the disease however, increased with awareness of the seriousness of the situ- ation. At the Gay Rights March in Washington D.C., a massive quilt, the size of two football fields, was spread out. The quilt was pieced together from nearly 2.000 squares. Each square, bear- ing the name of an AIDS victim, was stitched together by relatives and friends of the deceased. The most significant AIDS news in 1987, however, was tragically not news at all. Since the disease first appeared, the infection rate has continued to rise with 45,000 people suffering from AIDS in the U.S. alone. With this increase came the first AIDS-related death in Congress when Connecticut Congress- man Stewart McKinney died from the disease. Another startling fact was re- vealed when the Centers for Disease Control (CDC) stated that before blood screening began in 1984, as many as 12,000 Americans inay have been in- fected by blood transfusions contami- nated with the virus. 1987 left Americans struggling not only with a disease still unchecked, but also a series of unresolved social issues. Said Daniel Callahan, director of the Hastings Center in New York, The AIDS crisis is revealing a lot about our- selves, our medical practices, our social values, our sexual morality, and finally, about the status of poor minority groups in this country.” Discover magazine may have sum- marized the situation best when they said, Among the tough questions Americans will continue to confront arc these: Who will absorb the high costs of treatment? Should AIDS testing be mandatory? Should insurance compa- nies be allowed to test for AIDS? Should children with AIDS be allowed in public schools? And how do we protect the pub- lic while preserving the civil rights and dignity of people with this devastating disease? Maybe next year these ques- tions will have answers.

W: ith the unveiling of the Panda Exhibit at Busch Gardens on No- vember 17. thousands in the Tampa community were ini- tiated first-hand into the universal fascination that has surroun- ded pandas since the first glimpse the West had of them. Two pandas, a male and a female, arrived from the Bronx Zoo in New York for a stay in Tampa at Busch Gardens. Busch had a three-month contract to show the pandas and applied for a three- month extension, said Glenda Gilmore, head of public relations. Although Busch officials refused to say how much they paid to rent the pan- das from the Beijing Zoo in China, the Bronx Zoo paid more than $1 million for a six-month exhibit. Yong Yong. the female, whose name means forever and ever.” was found starving at the age of approxi- mately 11 months. She was rescued by a farmer near the mountains of Sichuan and turned over to a wildlife reserve. She was six years old when she arrived in Tampa, and weighed 187 pounds. In 1984 Yong Yong and another panda. Ying Xin. made her first visit to the United States for 3 Vi months in Los Angeles and two months in San Francis- co. Ling Ling, the male, whose name means ringing bell. was conceived through artificial insemination and born at the Beijing Zoo. He weighed 119 pounds and was 1 Vi years old upon ar- rival in Tampa. Busch officials had wanted to fly the pandas first class from New York, but no airline would touch it. said Gil- more. So the pandas flew to Orlando in an air-controlled hold of an Eastern Air- lines passenger jet. in wood and metal cages floored with straw and bamboo. The flight went to Orlando because no air-controlled cargo jets were flying into Tampa. It landed shortly after noon with a crowd of reporters and camera- men. six Chinese delegates, and a few state troopers waiting at the cargo build- ing off Bear Road to greet the pandas. The two mammals were transport- ed from Orlando to Tampa in a 15-pas- sengcr van with the scats removed in the back so the cages would fit. Two state trooper cars escorted the vans to Tampa to make sure there was no trouble. The pandas lived in a 120-foot, multi-million dollar exhibit area de- signed by an artificial landscape firm in Arizona. The structure, located in the bird section of the park, contained a spe- cially constructed people mover and ob- servation deck, and was kept at a con- stant 70 degrees. Bamboo, the staple of the panda’s diet, was placed in strategic areas to encourage foraging. Crowds at Busch Gardens were so large during the stay of the pandas that extra help was hired and longer hours es- tablished to handle all the visitors. PANDAS? AT THE DARK CONTINENT? YOU BET!!

No one, from presidential candidates and Supreme Court nominees to Federal secretaries and models was immune. TV Evangel- ists, military officers, and even the President came under fire in contro- versial investigations which delved into their sex lives, spouse’s behav- ior, daily habits, past associations, and loyalties. A major controversy took hold of the country over the issue of how private the life of a public figure should be. In response to this, jour- nalists pursued “search-and-de- stroy missions” that knocked down many public figures by exposing past indiscretions. Probably the biggest downfall of the year was that of Gary Hart, Democratic presidential hopeful. Accused of extramarital affairs, Hart publicly denied any hanky- panky and challenged the press to follow him. They did, and, acting on a tip, caught him with model Donna Rice. The furor that arose ended Hart's campaign, but be- gan endless questions and discus- sions. Hart later reentered the race only to withdraw once again in February. Why did people react so strongly to Hart’s infidelity? Was it because they didn’t want an im- moral president? Or was it be- cause Hart had publicly lied, chal- lenged the press and then gotten trapped in his own bad judge- ment? Both views were ex- pressed, and Hart withdrew from the campaign. Vet, the biggest question of all was why had the • lUroU Shekel Cofjright 1997 US. Nm W WotkJ Aqxvr. Nov I) iiwr in terms or civil leberty? press exposed this story, and should they have? Traditionally, the press has stayed away from ‘‘after- hours” behavior. No one re- ported John Kennedy’s af- fairs until long after his death, and no one revealed that Franklin Roosevelt’s train made stops to pick up or discharge his mistress. But that was before Watergate and other scandals focused new attention on the charac- ter of politicians. As U.S. News and World Report reported, That is the signal difference this year: Journalists practicing the neoscience of gaffeology have decided that it is no longer sufficient to ex- amine men by their public acts. Their pri- vate lives and those of their families are, in the memorable metaphor of Richard Nixon, ‘subjected not just to a microscope but to a protoscope’.” This attitude was strongly displayed when The New York Times Washington bureau chief. Craig Whitney, asked presidential candidates to waive privacy rights on intimate details and tell all. This new kind of journalism, called urine-test journalism” by Professor Ralph Whitehead of the University of Massachusetts, brought down Hart, Joe Biden, and Douglas Ginsburg (Supreme Court nominee). among others. The questions which arose this year included, Is this new kind of journalism; new exposure, good or bad? Do the Ameri- can people want or need to know all the private details of public lives? Should they know? Should the degree change by posi- tion? Where should it stop?” Unfortunately, the issue was still un- resolved at the end of the year, and the people were pre- sented with many conflicting cases. When Hart challenged the press and lost, many people were indignant; why should the press be allowed to violate privacy when mere sexual habits ABOVE: Evangelist Jimmy Swaggeit in eaily 1988 wa� asked to leave his publicly confessing a tryst with a prostitute.

The doubts rest- ed, instead, on Hart’s foolish- ness in having an affair after challenging the press • was this bad judgement a flaw about which the public should know? On the other hand, when Biden was exposed by the press as a plagiarist, doubts about the public’s need to know were almost non-exis- tent; if a man is a cheat, it will definitely have an effect on the presidency. Then President Reag- an’s second supreme court nominee, Ginsburg was ac- cused in the media of having smoked pot in college during the sixties and early seventies, and Ginsburg admit- ted to the act. But he also stated that he hadn’t used the drug since then. Again, controversy arose on whether something done so long ago should be a deciding fac- tor, indiscrete or not. “There is no consensus on what’s rele- vant to a person’s qualifications,” said Democratic strategist Bob Shrum. In the absence of agreement, we have reached a stage where anything anyone prints any- where is deemed relevant.” The danger for reporters in acting as morality-enforcers could have been seri- ous. A pollster warned that there was a public backwash developing because vast num- bers of voters feared reporters were operating out of control, according to U.S. News World Report. The dark side of press competition is like the Sorcerer’s Apprentice,” said press observer Stephen Hess of the Brookings Insti- tution. You start with very legitimate stor- ies, but it keeps going till you get off-the-wall stor- ies and you can’t shut it off.” « STUDENT LIFE 27 problems in finding space to perform is gentrification”. Artists move into a declin- ing area and begin to re- vive old buildings, create cul- tural events, and attract shops, restaurants, and gal- leries. This makes the area move valuable and creates a housing demand for expen- sive homes, thus raising prices, and low-income artists can no longer afford to re- main. This happened in Tampa in several areas, including Ybor City, and performing groups had to move out. The Tampa Players found a home in UT’s Spartan Arms, the Tampa Ballet and Florida Orchestra The idea that artists must suffer to create has been around for ages. One reason for this superstition is the fre- quently deplorable state of the areas in which they have lived and worked. The need for inexpensive space with large floor areas and high ceilings has led many performing artists into abandoned commercial and industrial areas, or old ware- houses, which meet the provi- sions plentifully and cheaply. Although they provide per- forming space, these facilities are usually unsafe and uncom- fortable, and the artists have claim to moved into Falk Theatre and McKay Auditorium on cam- pus, and a small dramatic group, Ground Zero, moved into an empty building near campus on Howard Avenue. Last year, several changes af- fected the state of the per- forming arts around Tampa; UT sold Spartan Arms, and with it Lafayette Arcade, and the Tampa Bay Performing Arts Center was finished. These changes caused both relocation problems and bene- fits for the groups involved. With these changes however a new awareness of the arts grew, and with this aware- ness, a new appreciation for the arts. only a them. One of the most common Grapevine Report: California Raisir Who would have ever thought that four animated raisins singing “I Heard it Through the Grapevine” in a construction worker’s lunchbox could account for the largest marketing success to hit America in years? Most agreed, only Americans could fall in love with animated, musical raisins. The California raisin commercials which became popular early in 1987 had increasing measures of success in 1988. Not only did this marketing bonanza boost the sales of California grown raisins, but it also opened up a whole new door for a wide range of promotional products. Dressed differently, each raisin had a distinct personality to match their indi- viduality. One wore colorful high top ten- nis shoes, another wore bright orange sun glasses, and the lead singer wore a bow tie. The remaining “Raisin Guy” played the saxophone, and from the look he had on his face, he put everything he had into it. The first substantial sign that the Raisin Guys” had made their way into the hearts of Americans everywhere was the appearance of little raisin guys all over the streets and at costume parties on Hal- loween night. Various versions of the cos- tume, most of which were homemade, could be seen all over the country. Soon, radio stations everywhere be- gan receiving multiple requests for the old Marvin Gayc song. The raisins had ar- rived. Although they were best known for their rendition of Marvin Gaye’s “I Heard it Through the Grapevine,” they also re- corded other hit songs such as La Bam- ba,” “When a Man Loves a Woman,” You Can’t Hurry Love,” and “Mony, Mony.” Their recordings were released by Priority Record Company on album, cas- sette tape, and compact disc. Believe it or not, but after the release of their album, a video was also released for “I Heard it Through the Grapevine.” The video was premiered on the new vari- ety show “Dolly” early in 1988. Clips from the video showed the enormous popularity and following of the group and featured the “Raisin Guys” in conference with President Reagan and General Secretary Gorbachev among others. With the increasing popularity of the California Raisins, promotional merchan- dise began to appear in stores everywhere just in time for Christmas. Among the items which could be seen in multiple store windows in any mall were t-shirts, sweat shirts, posters, plastic figures, and, even- tually, stuffed raisin men. These items sold fast and most stores had a difficult time keeping California rai- sin products in stock. In addition, the items were not cheap. A plastic figure sold for $2.99 and the small stuffed raisins were $13. Nevertheless, these were the ever pop- ular gifts of the 1987 Christmas season. Hardees, a regional fast food restau- rant chain, got in on the game, too. They began offering small, plastic “Raisin Guys” for $.99 with the purchase of any dessert or breakfast sandwich. Hardees ice cream sundaes had never been so popu- lar. They could not seem to keep enough of the raisin figures in stock. The promo- tion lasted for four weeks with a new figure offered every week. Each week. Hardees everywhere ran out of the little guys. Children of all ages were in love with the California Raisin Guys.” The market- ing venture had been much more success- ful than anyone had anticipated. Who knew what the future would hold for the industry. But the question remained as to how anyone could top animated raisins with high top tennis shoes. Mania Sweeps Across America Campus RENOVATIONS This year the University of Tampa campus underwent several renovations; from the famed minarets to the construction of a walkway to the Union. The campus began to take on a more polished, new look as the year pro- gressed. The restoration of the minarets moved into the fourth phase in 1987-88. Phase One was the decontamination of the minarets, followed by Phase Two. the reinforcement of the structures with steel. The third phase was the resheathing, with steel, of the minaret completed last year. The fourth phase began when two more minarets were added to the resh- cathing process. In early December the Phi Delta Theta fraternity dedi- cated the Michael P. Connolly memorial walkway in front of the Union. The walkway, covering a path across the lawn which had been worn thin through use. was dedicated to the memory of Connolly, a former UT student and Phi Delt mem- ber who died in 1986 after a long battle with Hodgkin s Dis- ease (a malignant cancer of lymphoid tissues). The walkway was built by the fraternity brothers, with building materials donated by Hoover Border Construction, the contractors also working on the minarets. The UT Alumni Association donat- ed $500 to cover costs, and the fraternity covered the rest. And. during the semester break. Plant Hall was com- pletely tented in one of the most spectacular black and gold displays ever, to be fumigated for termites. Truly Nolan was selected to perform the complex operation, which was funded by several grants, on the historical building. Called the “biggest debugging job in history.” the fumigators borrowed tents from other fumigators in the Bay area to have enough to cover the mile long building. Tear gas was sent to insure the building was va- cant before the poison was pumped in for the first time in the history of the building. 34 FEATURES 1988 MOROCCAN FEATURES 35 c )in5acH nn-n WORLD NEWS Historical Summit Brings Signing of Treaty Ironically, as the Christmas holiday did not achieve the cold temperature asso- ciated with the season. December 8, 1987 signaled the end of a part of the cold war between the Soviet Union and the United States. On that date. President Reagan and Soviet General Secretary Gorbachev signed a treaty calling for the destruction of all intermediate range missiles. Over 23,000 nuclear warheads were to be elimi- nated by the treaty. Interpreted as a giant step forward, the treaty was seen as a positive move in relations by Americans and Soviets alike. In addition, citizens would soon learn that the treaty set the stage for a similar sum- mit the following summer. There, further arms reduction talks would take place. Back home, a few right wing conser- vatives in Congress opposed the treaty. Feeling that the treaty did not call for strong enough measures, the opposition proclaimed that the verification process could not be successful because of mis- trust with the Soviets. On the lighter side of the occasion, it appeared that the First Lady had some eti- quette problems with Mrs. Raisa Gorba- chev when Nancy’s invitation to tea and a tour of the White House was avoided for over two weeks. When Raisa finally re- sponded, she asked that the time be changed so her afternoon would be free to spend with her husband. Nancy was taken aghast at this proposition. Said a friend of the First Lady, “If you're invited to din- ner, you don’t respond by asking to come to lunch instead!’’ It appeared that the possibilities of Raisa making friends with the First Lady had become strained. Am- ericans were just happy that Nancy and Raisa’s male counterparts were more com- patible. Elections Cause Terror in Haiti Student Protests In 1987, the country of Haiti claimed that the first free elections in that country would take place. The military, however, used terror in an attempt to inform the cit- izens that voting was not a very good idea. As a result, the elections were temporarily called off. When the elections were finally held, gunmen stood outside the polls, sup- posedly to keep the peace. It was widely speculated that General Namphy served as the military leader re- sponsible for much of the violence. As a cli- max to the turmoil in the region, the vio- lence peaked with the unexplained death of the running mate of the leading candi- date. In China, five hundred students pro- tested when a fellow undergraduate was killed by the military. Several scuffles broke out as the students marched on gov- ernment offices in Peking, but there were no major incidents reported. The unrest was the first known student protest in Chi- na since 1986 when the government cracked down on pro-democratic ideas. The Chinese government, disturbed about the situation, considered the demon- strations to be a sure sign of the intrusion of Western political ideology. Regardless, “Kung Fu” continued to play on indepen- dent stations in the U.S. Panamanian Problems Press Softens Views As a result of the intermediate-range missile treaty, the Soviet press presented a brighter view of America. No longer por- trayed in a completely grim light, the cov- erage proved to be optimistic with a tinge a caution. With a closer look, the American press acted in a similar manner. Newspa- pers and broadcast reports portrayed the Soviet Union as friends with renewed vigor. As a result, the popularity of Soviet leader Gorbachev increased with the American public. One journalist asked Gorbachev if he realized that he was in third place for the presidency. From this, one could only theorize about the populari- ty of a popular mouse from Orlando. Just two years ago. a high ranking United States Central Intelligence Official sent General Noriega of Panama a letter praising his efforts in the battle against drug smuggling. Now. the United States, and many other countries, were making every effort to get him out of Panama due to his integral role in the drug trafficing scene. The evidence now shows that the Central Intelligence Agency knew of his connections to the drug situation as early as 1981. As is the case in most Latin American countries, the military has a large role in the politics of the nations. In January, General Noriega ousted Panamanian Pres- ident Del Valle. He was re-established sev- eral times, but each time, the General put him out of power again. For the next few days, Noriega’s photo was on the front cov- er of every news magazine in America. The headlines declared Noriega the “Panamanian Drug-Thug. The United States and others in the international scene wanted him out of Panama. The latest rumor was that Noriega was considering leaving, but there was a widespread fear that his loyal supporters would sabotage the Panama Canal in order to retaliate. 36 FEATURES Pope Visits US in a Nine City Tour The pope began his nine city United States tour in Miami. Florida. As expected, he was greeted there by President Ronald Reagan and his wife Nancy. He was greeted by the President because he was considered an official Head of State. Speaking to Catho- lics and Protestants, entire cities lined for a once in lifetime look at Pope John Paul II. He was respected by people from all religious persuasions. Topics covered during his visit typically included world peace. AIDS, and moral- ity in general. Vendors roaming the streets of Miami sold “Popcsiclcs and “Pope on a rope among other items. Dollar signs in the pocket as well as the plate resulted to the glee of store owners. Safety is Threatened in Persian Gulf In 1987. the Persian Gulf area served as the transportation route for over fifteen percent of the world’s crude oil supply. Close to five hundred oil carrying vessels traveled these waters each day. Due to the unrest of several Arab states, it became impossible to safely travel this route. Threatened by a gauntlet of missiles and mines, the United States was forced to take a more active role in the Persian Gulf. American military forces began uncovering Iranian mines in the ocean which were being planted to sabotage and destroy oil tankers and other ships. After asking both the United States and the USSR for help. Kuwait ships were soon escorted through the treacherous waters with American escorts. Even though the United States received less than five percent of its oil resources from this region, the administra- tion was eager to limit Soviet action within the territory. In March of 1987, America of- fered to place American flags on eleven Kuwait tankers and escort these ships by United States naval fleets. Shortly after, the USS Stark was accidently destroyed by Iraqi missiles. With this action and several other incidents, the American navy was joined by naval fleets from five other Western allies. The activities in the Persian Gulf sparked renewed controversy concerning the War Powers Act.

Dur- ing the year, the Israeli security forces oc- cupied the Gaza Strip and West Bank re- gions. Angry Arabs battled to keep Israeli law out of their lives. Civil unrest had been a continual part of Arab life since the war in 1967. but this time, strikes and demonstrations were sta- ged inside Israel by Arabs who had gener- ally been docile citizens within the Jewish state. Arab cries of, “This is our country!” could be heard through the streets of Isra- el. The Arabs were described as a ticking time bomb within Israel. The police dealt swiftly with the pro- testors by shooting at rioters and arresting suspected troublemakers. Washington, displeased with the ac- tion taken by the police forces in Israel, voiced their malcontent by taking action in the United Nations Security Council and rejected the Israeli claim that the trou- ble was the result of the Palestine Libera- tion Organization (PLO). In the weeks that followed the unrest, the Israelis moved to deport nine Palesti- nians from the occupied territories of the Gaza Strip and the West Bank. After one month of riots and demonstrations, well over one thousand Palestinians had been arrested and placed in Israeli jails. An ad- ditional twenty nine had been killed. The continued unrest made the Is- raeli government more determined than ever to deport the nine alleged instigators of unrest despite vast criticisms. Prime Minister Yitzhak Shamir argued that the deportation was the only way “to help us maintain quiet and order.” The Israeli gov- ernment insisted that they had the right to deport the Palestinians, but they could not find legal support to back up this claim. Even if the deportation was legal, it proved to be an unwise move. The depor- tation only incited further protests within the Israel borders. For the government, it would be a while before the borders were once again silent. FEATURES 37 NATIONAL NEWS Meese in the Hot Seat Ironically, it seemed that the culprit in multiple government investigations was none other than the attorney general of the United States. During 1987-88 whenever any type of investigation was being discus- sed. the same name kept popping up. Ed- ward Mcese was called upon to testify in several scandalous affairs including the Iran-contra investigations. Several key le- gal officials resigned due to their disap- proval of Edwin Meese. Most of the public attacked the situa- tion claiming that it did not serve Presi- dent Reagan well to have his chief legal ad- viser on trial in such affairs. Although the outcome of the investigations was not yet apparent, the American public thought twice about the choices the President was making for both his staff and public posi- tions around the country. Quake Shakes in West The big news across the nation in Oc- tober of 1987 was the great earthquake in California. Although measuring 6.1 on the Richter scale, the earthquake was not con- sidered catastrophic, and yet the damage was still extensive. After the dust had set- tled. it could be seen that there was consid- erable damage to many homes and busi- nesses all over the state. Those who had friends and relatives anywhere in the state of California had to rely primarily on the television stations, newspapers, and radio reports for informa- tion. With the phone lines constantly over- loaded or severed, there was little chance of getting through to the west coast. The first major quake in years caught the pub- lic off guard, and civil defense workers found a need to sharpen skills needed in such emergencies. Cubans in Federal Prisons Take Hostages The Thanksgiving holiday was not a time to be very thankful for the families of prisoners in two federal prisons this past year. In the Atlanta and Oakdale federal prisons, Cuban prisoners, who were sup- posed to be segregated from American pri- soners at all times, took guards and in- mates hostage in an effort to communicate with administrators. The Cubans protes- ted treatment they had received since their arrival in United States. Many were prisoners for crimes they claimed they did not commit. Civil libertarians argued that the paperwork to discharge them from prison was not being processed correctly and they were serving sentences much lon- ger than the time period they were origi- nally given. Meanwhile, the families of the guards and inmates were left very much in the dark. Most did not know if their loved ones were being held captive, if they were safe, or in many cases, what state they were in because many of the prisoners had been transferred to other prisons when the trou- ble started. The Cubans in the Oakdale prison did not hold out near as long as the ones in At- lanta did. Soon after the uprising in Oak- dale. an agreement was signed between the leaders of the uprising and government officials which stated that the Cubans would not be punished for the uprising and that each case would be reviewed fairly by a review board. The Cubans in Atlanta held out much longer than their counterparts in Oakdale. When the agreement was finally signed, it was under the same conditions as the agreement in Oakdale. Most people were relieved when the situation was resolved and no one had been injured seriously. Student Journalists Lose Free Press Rights For several years the court decision from the Hazelwood case was awaited by student journalists. All over the country students were anxious to hear the results of the Supreme Court decision which would determine the rights of student journalists in America. In early January 1988. the Supreme Court issued an opinion which stated that principals of schools had the right to censor student publications for virtually any reason. The decision did not have a great im- pact on schools in the local vicinity. Both Hillsborough and Pinellas counties al- ready practiced a policy of prior review. For years, principals and other adminis- trators had been reviewing the newspa- pers and censoring articles which dealt with sensitive issues and criticized admin- istrations. Based in Missouri, the Hazelwood case was based on a principal who pulled a series of articles which dealt with teen- age pregnancy, divorce, and suicide from the student newspaper. Although the ar- ticles were well-written, the principal felt that the students in the school could not handle such sensitive subjects. After re- questing permission several times to be al- lowed to print the articles, the student in- volved sought the Student Press Law Cen- ter in Washington, D.C. and filed a lawsuit based upon a violation of the First Amend- ment. At the first hearing, a lower court ruled in favor of the students. However, the eighth district court o: appeals ruled in favor of the school board during the ap- peal. Finally, the Supreme Court, over- turning a former ruling which limited the powers of school administrators, ruled in favor of the school board with a 5-3 deci- sion. The effects of this ruling will eventu- ally affect more than the student press. Professional journalists agree that the stu- dents who were victims may not be able to develop the traits necessary to reach thier full potential as journalists. Tom Wicker of the New York Times said, These students that have felt the knife so soon will not be willing, in later years, to stick their necks out for the First Amendment.” The Moroccan is a member of the Student Press Law Center. 38 FEATURES Twelve Men Vie in Race for the Presidency Campaigning for the oval office began early in 1987. By the time 1988 arrived, there had already been several drop-outs and re-entries, televised debates including twelve of the presidential hopefuls, and millions of dollars spent on the campaign trail. In early December, Gary Hart re-en- tered the race. His reentry stirred much criticism and debate. The major issues of the race tended to be economic. This was expected since the national debt had grown tremendous- ly. Basically, the Republicans supported Reagan's supply-side economic policies while the Democrats favored raising taxes and decreasing military spending while in- creasing social programs. 1988 brought the Iowa caucus and front runners Gephardt and Dukakis. Ge- phardt’s position changed dreastically, and he dropped out in March. After the caucuses, it was time for the second round - the primaries. Perhaps the most important day in this leg of the race was the fateful “Super Tuesday.” This was election day for several southern states, Florida included. This made the race a three way tie between Dukakis. Jackson, and Gore on the Democratic side. The Republicans had less uncertain- ty regarding who would win the GOP nom- ination. Bush took the lead by winning ev- ery state on super Tuesday. After that point, he was basically a shoe-in. At this point, it was still too early to tell who would be the next president of the United States. That answer would not come until November of ’88. High Court Happenings The Bork and Ginsburg disasters left the Supreme Court in quite an unusual state (see pages 26-27). There were only eight Justices sitting on the bench. This left the possibility open for a split decision on any cases that were heard. It was not until January that the confirmation hear- ings for Judge Kennedy would begin. Several crucial cases were heard by the Supreme Court during this year's ses- sion. Perhaps the one most emphasis was placed on was the case dealing with the is- sue of a moment of silence.” In December, the Supreme Court evaded the entire mat- ter by issuing an opinion stating that they could not decide the case because those of- ficials involved were no longer in office. Another crucial case involving school board policies was heard by the Supreme Court during this session. The Hazelwood school district case involved student press rights and censorship by school adminis- trators. (Read full details on page 38). Ollie North for President Last summer nearly every television in the nation was tuned to the Iran Contra hearings. This was true partly because the nation was interested in what sort of scan- dal would be uncovered and partly be- cause the soap-operas had been pre-emp- ted. Just days after Ollie North took the stand, bumper stickers were seen every- where reading. Ollie North for Presi- dent.” The nation, ironically, had turned the marine into some sort of hero. Al- though some argued that it was the me- dia’s fault for making him appear holy, others argued that it was just one of the idiosyncrasies of the American public • to take a confessed federal criminal who claimed he was “just following orders” and turn him into a hero. When the Congress finally issued a majority report explaining the findings of the investigation, it stated that the presi- dent had been, at best, inept in this situa- tion. The minority report was kinder to the president, but still consented that he had failed in some executive responsibilities. North, Poindexter, and two others faced crinimal charges. At last report, the Reagan administration was debating whether or not to pardon Ollie (and Admi- ral Poindexter). It was too early to tell what decision Nancy would make. FEATURES 39 STATE AND LOCAL NEWS Service Tax Is Short-Lived Disaster at Stadium In an effort to sharpen skills, the city of Tampa emergency services staged a major disaster at Tampa Stadium. The mock disaster was centered around Tampa Stadium where an airplane supposedly crashed in the middle of a Buccaneers game. Hospitals and emergency services were in full force as they attempted to save the victims who were played by Gaither High School students. The purpose of the drill was to give the hospitals experience so that if there were a major disaster they would be prepared to act. The outcome of the drill was favorable. Just Say No Just say no! This was the slogan heard on many commercials dealing with peer pressure regarding drugs and alcohol. Bright red bumper stickers and signs were seen all over the Tampa Bay area which proclaimed Say No To Drugs.” This anti-abuse campaign was sponsored by the Tampa Police Department. The policy affected several of the Bay Area’s functions such as Zoo-fest and Guavaween. Because of the new slogan, alcohol was not to be allowed at either of these events. Q105, sponsor of Zoo-fest, argued that the event was to raise money for the Lowry Park Zoo and that beer sales brought in the most money. Nevertheless, Tampa Mayor Sandy Freedman stuck with her original decision not to allow alcohol at the events which were held on county property. Beer was sold privately however, at Guavaween. Commercial breaks on television in Florida fast became a dreaded event. As a result of the new service tax. many national advertisers opted not to advertise their products on Florida television. Instead, viewers saw a clock ticking along with a message announcing that in all other states, a commercial was being shown, but as a result of the newly imposed tax, the advertisers had chosen not to advertise in the state of Florida. This soon became a nuisance to the viewers, adding fuel to the fire against the tax. Advertising was not the only item to be covered under the service tax law. Those professional services which would be affected included doctors, lawyers, and many others whose profession it was to provide some type of service. The voters were severely opposed to Hand-guns Holsters In addition to the service tax. there was another law which received much controversial publicity. It appeared to Floridians that the officials in Tallahassee had not learned to think before they acted. Florida officials passed a law which allowed hand-guns to be carried in the open and in public. Realizing that anyone could walk through Franklin Street Mall at lunch time with a gun and holster, two Q105 personalities did exactly that to protest the law. In response to the opposition regarding the infamous attempt at a service tax, the Florida legislature decided on a new solution to the need for more funds at the state level. After careful debate, the decision was made to increase the Florida sales tax. The increase would be one percent, resulting in raising the sales tax to six percent. This new tax rate went into effect early in March. The tax increase recieved little opposition, and in most cases only resulted in a few extra cents for any purchases, it was considered by most to be a fair the law because, as usual, the taxes would simply be passed on to them. Because the tax would mean a considerable increase in the cost of any service one may need. Florida residents opposed the innovative tax. The actual life of this infamous piece of legislation was rather short, lasting less than ten months. After admitting the consequences had not been thoroughly considered, the Florida legislature called a special session and repealed the tax. The state was still in need of additional funds. Alternatives to the service tax were discussed including gambling and the new Florida Lottery. Suggestions also included a slight raise in the state sales tax. Whatever the legislatures finally decided, there would be no more mention of a service tax. Zoo Improvements The Lowry Park Zoo had slowly been undergoing improvements for several years, but the final stages of renovations were begun. The park was reportedly to be reopened in time for the summer of 1988. Although the picnic and rides areas were not affected by the changes, the zoo portion of the park were dramatically improved with the new renovations. Changes included new homes for many of the inhabitants as well additional species of animals in the viewing areas. alternative to a service tax because it would be effecting everyone equally, tourists included. Car dealers took advantage of this situation advertising that the consumer could save hundreds by buying their car before the state sales tax increased. The Florida legislature said that they felt the additional tax should provide the needed funds needed for the state budget. Sales Tax is New Answer to State Funds 40 FEATURES Lottery Fever Sweeps Florida: Millions Sold in First Day The long expected lottery finally came to Florida on January 12. 1988. On the first day alone, millions of tickets were sold and there were thirty eight $5,000 winners, twenty seven in the Tampa Bay area alone. In addition to the big winners, hundreds won free lottery tickets, quali- fied to enter the lottery drawing, or won smaller amounts of money. Commercials and billboards featuring flamingos and vibrant colors appeared all over the state. Lottery tickets were sold at various convenient stores, grocery store, and restaurants around the state. In the Tampa Bay area, tickets could be ob- tained at 7-eleven stores, Publix grocery stores, fast food restaurants, and conve- nience stores. Many Tampa area mer- chants. as well as merchants all over the state of Florida, hoped advertising the sale of lottery tickets would increase their busi- ness. The tickets, selling for one dollar each, contained six surfaces on each ticket which were rubbed off to reveal various prizes such as a free ticket, $5,000, $50, $5, $2. and entries for the drawing, the first of which was scheduled for sometime in February. In order to have a winning tick- et, there had to be three matching prizes showing on the ticket. The most common prizes were free tickets and $2. First week sales far exceeded any ex- pectations and tickets quickly sold out. Not uncommon was the sight of someone walking out of a convenience store with twenty five or thirty tickets, but most peo- ple who supported the lottery just bought a couple of tickets for the fun of it. Since there was a high level enthusiasm, the state government officials hoped that the popularity of the lottery would be long-liv- ed. Ironically enough, the first winner of the million dollar jackpot was a man who was opposed to the lottery. He says that he found the ticket on the ground in a parking lot and noticed it had three entries scratched off, so he sent it in. Even though he won the hundred dollars, he said he still would not buy a lottery ticket. Most of the criticisms and arguments regarding the lottery seemed to die once things were rolling, but educators, on the whole, were not overly excited about the lottery. Feeling that the money which was supposed to be set aside the educational system was lost, many complained that part of those lost funds were earmarked for increased wages for teachers, something they had been fighting for on a long-term basis. In actuality, thirty five percent of the money collected from the selling of lottery tickets went toward education. Fifty per- cent of the money went to pay the winners and of the remaining fifteen percent, ten percent went toward necessary expendi- tures to keep the lottery running and five percent went to those stores who were sold the tickets. Q105 Still On Top One local radio station continued to be the recipient of national attention. Q105 (WRBQ) has been in the top of the ratings in the Tampa St. Petersburg area and is heard all over the nation through satellite networks. Nevertheless, many Tampa Bay citi- zens became annoyed by the never-ending discussions every morning on their way to work and school. The disc jockeys, con- stantly causing commotion, started con- troversial discussions with opinionated re- marks and often hung up or harrassed lis- teners. Whether a person enjoyed listening to the show or found it offensive, chances were that they had heard of the Q Zoo re- gardless of their musical tastes. St. Pete Honors King The city of St. Petersburg decided to honor the legacy of Martin Luther King in a special way. renaming a street in the city in his honor. The memorial ceremony took place on Monday, January 18, which was Martin Luther King Memorial Day. Bay Area Continues To Even though the original publicity stirred up several years ago by organiza- tions such as MADD and SADD had died down, police officers in the Tampa area were still making efforts to increase drunk driving awareness. This was achieved through two main programs of action. The safe-ride line, which provided a free, safe ride home for anyone who thought they had too much to drink and were afraid to drive, was sponsored by An Attempt At Safety In response to concerned shoppers, Tampa Bay Center started a program which lasted only a few short months. The mall offered valet parking to customers at a cost of $2 in an attempt to decrease the amount of muggings and kidnappings in the area. Many shoppers found the service helpful because it saved time by not hav- ing to drive around the parking lot in search of a parking space. Although the service started with great response during the Christmas season, the response in the fall was so minimal that the program was discontinued. Combat Drunk Drivers Q105 and Yellow Cab. A new plan beginning late in 1987 al- lowed anyone with a cellular car phone to make a toll free call to a special line with the police department. This phone link en- abled motorists to report reckless and drunk drivers and supply the police with necessary information. The police would then attempt to locate and stop the dan- gerous driver. Residents Oppose Crosstown Expansion The talk to expanding the Crosstown Expressway made many area residents fear that the expressway would be built near their home. or. worse yet, that they would lose their home to the growth. A de- cision had not yet been made as to the ex- act location of the extention, but solutions to alleviate problems for the residents near the extension such as a privacy wall to block the noise were considered. FEATURES 41 BUSINESS NEWS Black Monday Causes Panic For Investors in Stock Market It was like reliving the depression all over again, except I wasn't there for the first crash.” Some analysts compared the 508 point drop of the Dow Jones Industrial Average to the 12.6% decline of October 28.1929, which is given credit for plung- ing the world into the Great Depression. In reality, the drop on Monday October 19,1987 realized a 22.6% decline and far exceeded the notorious drop of '29. As late as August of 1987, the Dow Jones peaked above 2700, a 44% climb over a period of just eight months. Inves- tors, frightened by a tame decline in the market, began pulling all stops out to preserve what profit they had made in the bull market. On the New York Stock Exchange, panic driven stock trading reached a rec- ord level 604.3 million shares, more than doubling the prior record (338.5 million shares) set only the previous Friday. On that date, the Dow plunged 108.35 points, a record at this time. Commodity prices also plunged with the exception of precious metals which soared to a 4 1 2 year high. The bond market, reac- ting to the drop in stock prices, moved sharply higher. The total damage would take many months to assess. The decline for the day and the previous week would total a whopping 30%. With the drop, the market lost all gains for 1987 and even showed a loss for the year of 8.3%. From the high on August 25 of 2722.42, the av- erage lost 36.1%. How frantic was the market? By late afternoon, the transaction tape (ca- pable of running 900 trades a minute) from the Big Board was running two hours and fifteen minutes late. When the dust settled, the ratio of stocks de- clining in price was an incredible 40-1 over gainers. In Japan and Europe, markets dropped overnight as a reaction to the fall in New York and were expected to continue dropping. In the long run, the plunge would be blamed on profit takers, even though economic indicators were solid” said one broker. As a result, a study would institute changes including new regula- tions by the Federal Government. Investors Earn Billions From United States Sales Low Due to Crash Christmas sales were down consider- ably this year. Many analysts blamed the sales lag on the stock market situation. Whatever the reason, people were simply not buying as much as they had in year’s past. The malls were still packed during the month of December, but large ticket items were not selling. After a slow year, the retailers were hoping that the Christmas spirit would be alive this season in order to save them. The problem continued into '88. As a result of the crash, people were just being more cau- tious. The payment gap between the United States and foreign economies grew to a rec- ord $43.38 billion during the third quarter of the fiscal year. What this meant was that for the first time in over fifty years, foreign investors earned more from their United States in- vestments than American investors did from their investments abroad. This gap has been growing considera- bly over the past ten years. This United States had quickly transformed its posi- tion as the world’s largest lender nation to the world’s largest debtor nation. This was a status which troubled many national leg- islators. As a result, the United States is paying more and more in interest rates and dividends to foreigners. These payments now exceed the interest and dividend pay- ments made to the United States on hold- ings in foreign nations. This current-account gap is responsi- ble for widening the outrageous trade defi- cit. Economists blame this type of deficit on what they call the borrowing binge of the 80’s.” 42 FEATURES Insider Scandals Rock the Stock Market It was ironic that the criminal proc- cecdings surrounding arbitrator Ivan Bocsky had defied the predictions of most experts.

Among the charges against Mr. Boes- ky was the supposed attempt to depress the stock of Argyll Group PLC when both Argyll and Guiness were bidding for Dis- tillers Co. last year. It was alleged that Guiness also asked Boesky to prop up the price of their stock during the takeover. Both offers for Distillers Co. were largely made of stock offerings from the respec- tive companies. Boesky agreed to pay $100 million to settle U.S. Securities and Exchange Com- mission insider-trading charges. In Addi- dion, Boesky later pleaded guilty to one felony count and gave the SEC informa- tion that triggered two British investiga- tions into the Guiness takeover of Distil- lers. Although highly unusual to sentence a defendant before completing cooperation with prosecutors. Stanley Arkin. criminal defense attorney who has handled numer- ous insider trading cases said While it’s not unheard of. I can’t think of another case of this magnitude where sentencing has occurred so early” suggesting possible favorable treatment by U.S. prosecutors. In a prcsentcncc memorandum, the government described Bocsky’s coopera- tion as a “window on the rampant criminal conduct” that has “permeated the securi- ties industry.” As a result of the massive investiga- tion of wrongdoing, crimes disclosed by Boesky, in addition, to insider trading in- cluded manipulation of stock prices, un- lawful takeover activity, undercapitaliza- tion of broker dealers, parking” of stock for others, and filing of false books and rec- ords among others. In the end. regulatory action and a massive clean up of the activi- ty on Wall Street would happen. Unemployment Rate is Best in Years The unemployment rate had been falling gradually in 1985 and 1986. In 1987, the unemployment rate in the United States reached its lowest point in over 8 1 2 years. The lowest point before this had occurred in July of 1979. According to La- bor Department reports, the low point of 5.8% was in December, which showed the nation’s economic strength following the October stock market crash. The drop in the unemployment rate was accompanied by growth in non-farm business payrolls, which rose by 326.000 in December after a 263,000 job gain in No- vember. For the entire year, payroll em- ployment rose by three million people. The highest rate of employed workers existed among the white population with a rate of 3.4% unemployed. The highest rate on unemployment was among the black population with a rate of 12%. Texaco Penzoil: Companies Battle in Court Two of the world’s leading oil compa- nies had a legal battle involving several billion dollars. The outcome of the suit al- most caused Texaco to go under. In late November, Texaco’s creditors revealed a plan which was supposed to re- vamp the company. Their plan consisted of reorganizing the companies finances and beginning to make installments to the Penzoil Company while the court proceed- ings were still in progress. If Pennzoil were to win the litigations, there would be a lim- it on how much it would receive from Texa- co beyond the initial payments, even if the entire amount of 10.3 billion dollars was upheld. This decision was made following the Texas Supreme Court’s decision not to hear Texaco’s appeal. In addition to the court proceedings regarding Pennzoil, Texaco was undergo- ing additional court proceedings in bank- ruptcy court. The court ruling would dis- solve the present creditors' board. This ac- tion would remove Pennzoil Company from the board. Real Men Put It On The Table During the recent talks to reduce the budget and trade deficits, the most deli- cate issue was, without a doubt, Social Se- curity. It was the subject of much debate and no action. Lobbyists in Washington, D.C. began wearing buttons which stated, Real Men Put it on the Table.” Everyone basically agreed that some- thing had to be done, but no one was will- ing to be known for cutting anyone’s bene- fits in an election year. As a result, this year's talks were basically a rematch of the previous years' battles. As in the past, the Democrats were advocating reducing military spending and raising taxes. Meanwhile, the Republicans were arguing that the correct action would be to raise military spending and leave the taxes as they were. A serious problem, not one congress- man was willing to step forward and take care of it, allowing the problem to fester and grow worse. Every year, the govern- ment would run out of money around Octo- ber. The money which permitted the gov- ernment to continue running for the rest of the year was obtained from foreign in- vestors. Because the money was usually unable to be repaid, this produced a rather large national debt. SPORTS ENTERTAINMENT U2 Plays Tampa Stadium For Sell-out Crowd U2 came to the Tampa Bay Area early in December. With a seating capacity of seventy- two thousand, the show was held at Tampa Stadium. Fans camped out the night before tickets went on sale in order to assure that they would not miss the the show. Needless to say. the show sold out the same day that the tickets went on sale. For the truly determined (and rich!) U2 fan. there was still a way to get in the stadium that night. Just hours before the show, tickets holders could be seen standing on the corners of Dale Mabry and Buffalo Avenue waving their tickets and offering to sell them. These people were the last hope for some devoted fans who were willing to pay $50 or $75 for a chance to see U2 live. U2 fans attending the concert enjoyed the show as the group played songs from their old albums as well as their most recent work, The Joshua Tree. The members put on a show that was typically U2. IflBaBDHI Cosby Changes There were some changes in the Huxtablc household as well as the Thursday night line-up on NBC. Denise went off to college. This was the beginning of a new show • A Different World.” The original Cosby Show” held its own in the ratings for another season, but its spin-off starring Lisa Bonet was the subject of much criticism. Vinny Hits Tampa Once again, the Buccaneers had done poorly enough to earn themselves the first draft choice. This year, the Buccaneers chose Heisman Trophy winner Vinny Testaverde. Testaverde was enthusiastic about the revitalizing efforts going on within the Bucs led by Head Coach Ray Perkins from the University of Alabama. Testaverde did not take over the starting quarterback position from Steve DeBurg as many hoped he would. He remained second string quarterback for most of the season. This put an enormous pressure on De Burg, and it worked. He played the best season ever. Most agreed that it would take a little more time and energy before the Bucs would be a winning team. Redskins Take Super Bowl Victory Easily The Redskins didn't have a hard time capturing the Super Bow! victory over the Denver Broncos. This year’s game took place in the middle of January, after several rounds of play-off games in order to choose the two contenders which represented the NFC and the AFC. 44 FEATURES Predictions before the game seemed to indicate that the game was going to be a close one, but it became apparent from the moment the whistle blew that the Redskins were in control of the game. CELEBRITY DEATHS Jackie Gleason - best known for playing the boisterous “Ralph Cramden” on the “Honeymooners”, died in June. 1987 at the age of 71. He was often referred to as the Great One” regarding his comic ability. Gleason owned a night club in Florida and was a known alcoholic. Liberace - This glittering showman and pianist died at his home in February. 1987, at the age of 67. Although it is suspected he died from illnesses contracted due to the deadly AIDS virus, his ability to lavishly entertain a crowd is how he will be remembered. Fred Astaire - Astaire was a dancing legend. Throughout his twenty-five year career he danced on the silver screen wearing a top hat and tails with stars such as Ginger Rogers. He died in June, 1987, at the age of 88. The cause of his death was pneumonia. I Lome Greene • Greene was best remembered for portraying the firm but gentle father of three sons on the hit television series Bonanza.” Bonanza was a popular western scries during the late 60’s. He played this character for fourteen years. He died in September, 1987 at the age of 72. Jimmy the Greek Offends Many By Racial Comments Jimmy the Greek had offended many football fans for years with his style of football predictions and commentaries, but this time he had offended the wrong people. While talking to reporters at a bar in January, the Greek remarked that if blacks started coaching football, too. there wouldn’t be any jobs left for whites in football since the majority of the players were presently black. This remark was made regarding the possibility of a black man being named coach of an NFL team. Blacks and whites all across America were shocked and offended at his racial remark. NBC reacted quickly, and it took the officials there less than one week to make the decision not to allow Jimmy the Greek to remain a commentator for their weekly football broadcasts. Jimmy the Greek issued a formal letter of apology to several prominent black leaders including Democrat presidental candidate Jesse Jackson. Each of these black leaders accepted his apologies. Nevertheless, in the minds of most people this action did not erase the prejudice words he had spoken. Space Alien Makes it Big for NBC The science fiction portrayed in shows like ‘Star Trek” had been around for ages, but there was a new type of science fiction on NBC in 1987-88. The show “Alf” was a combination of science fiction and comedy. “Alf was an alien who lived with an average American family. Other than the fact that he had fur. a long nose and ate cats, Alf” fit in great with the family. Of course, the neighbors didn’t know about “alf”! The family lived in fear that someone would discover their furry friend from outer space. The v problem was that didn 1 stay 7� , hidden. convinc- fl t-d that was safe. “Moonlighting” Star Turns Musical For most of their loyal viewers, the new season of Moonlighting” proved to be quite a disappointment. Somehow, the characters just didn’t seem to have the same love hate relationship that the audience had grown to love. This, coupled with the fact that the two rarely appeared in the same scene together (or in the same state, for that matter). led to a rapid decline in popularity of the once avant garde show. Despite this downfall, star Bruce Willis did not declined much in popularity. He recorded a new album entitled “In Search of Bruno’’ which featured the unique musical style of the heart throb actor. He was also featured in television commercials for Seagram’s wine coolers for several months. He later resigned this position as spokesperson due to a battle with alcoholism in his private life. M-M-Max Headroom Gets the Ax Max Headroom dealt with the television world of the future. The show was a new idea which portrayed events of the future in a manner which entertained audiences and hopefully warned them to be more aware of the medium. Focus points of the show included ratings competitions, viewer habits, and financial networks. Unfortunately, the show did not make it in the real life ratings game. Many felt that this was due to the high intellectual content of the prime time program. In addition, the Max Headroom character was no longer featured in current Coca-Cola commercials. Another Big Year for Madonna The year proved to be a big one musically. Of the leading female performers, highlighting the year once again was Madonna. Luckily she had better luck with her musical career than she did keeping a husband. The year also proved to be big for soundtracks from motion pictures. Perhaps the biggest was “Dirty Dancing . This soundtrack featured the hit “(I’ve Had the) Time of My Life”. Other musicians who had a big year were Huey Lewis with his album “Fore!” and Tiffany with her hit song “I Think We’re Alone Now. FEATURES 45 CAMPUS NEWS Minaret Restoration The restoration of the minarets atop Plant Hall continued into this academic year. The workers could be seen stripping the wood of the minarets and completing the other various stages of reconstruction throughout the year. The complete restoration of all thirteen minarets would not be completed for several years. The process was very involved, and took quite a while to complete. Students and faculty members enjoyed watching the various stages of the process and waited anxiously for the day when they could see thirteen completely restored mi- narets on top of the University’s main build- ing. Termite Warfare Called the biggest debugging job in history . Plant Hall was tented over the Christmas holidays. The tenting was the first in the history of the building, built be- tween 1888 and 1891. An enormous task to complete, the beginnings of this process could be seen around campus during final exam week. Because several offices located in Plant Hall such as the postal service and the business offices would be in operation over the semester break they were tempo- rarily relocated to the Tampa Prep build- ings. The complexity of the job was fully realized when all living plants and animals had to be removed from the building. As a precaution, tear gas was released in the building prior to the fumigation. (See story page 32-33) Alternative Papers Cause Stir on Campus During the Spring Semester, several alternative newspapers showed up on cam- pus. The first of these to appear was The Conservative Voice which was edited by Steve Rodriguez. The paper contained ar- ticles which praised traditional Republi- can ideals. The next to appear was cleverly name the Minarag. This paper had more of a lib- eral angle, and criticized the Conservative Voice. The writers and editor of this publi- cation remained anonymous. Opinions of these publications varied. The Minaret published an editorial urging the writers of these alternative papers to be professional in their actions. Walkway Complete The Phi Delta Theta fraternity com- pleted a walkway in honor of Michael P. Connolly, a deceased brother who had at- tended the University and graduated in 1986. Connolly died of Hodgkin's Disease last year. The walkway in front of the Stu- dent Union was constructed and dedicat- ed in his honor. The cost of the walkway was between $700 and $800. A dedication ceremony was held in front of the Student Union on December 11, 1987. Board’s Dinner is Boycotted In November, several members of the University faculty received invitations to a dinner in honor of the Board of Trustees. Although not noteworthy, the dinner was to be held at the University Club which a strict policy regarding women. The club practiced a policy of not allowing women for lunch under any condition. Because the dinner was held at night, the females invit- ed were permitted to come with a male es- cort. Anger and enraged were two words that could describe members of the Uni- versity faculty. In protest, the faculty made the statement that the university should, under no conditions, patronize an establishment which openly discriminates on the basis of sex. As a result, the majori- ty of those invited boycotted the event. Feeling attendance would be a violation of their morals, many faculty chose to “speak with their feet” and not show up. Not ev- eryone boycotted the Trustee’s dinner. Three members of the faculty, who were also opposed to the idea, attended the event. The members later stated they felt that someone from the university should show up. Through their actions, the faculty hoped the board would learn a lesson in discrimination from this event. The larg- est concern to the faculty was the associa- tion of the University with an establish- ment with such policies. Samson Confirmed After the commencement of the year, Bruce Samson was confirmed as president of the University of Tampa. This was not a surprise to those involved with the University. Samson, who served as interim president after the res- ignation of Richard Cheshire, was con- sidered to be well-suited for the position. Many administators felt that under President Samson, the University af- fairs had been run more efficiently be- cause he attempted to work diplomati- cally with each of the departments with- in the system. Samson was pleased when the title became official after serv- ing effectively for one year. 46 FEATURES MLK Honored on Campus Unlike most other colleges and uni- versities, UT had regular classes on Mon- day. January 18, 1988. It was the date of the relatively new legal holiday known as Martin Luther King Memorial Day. The holiday was established in memory of the well-known black leader in memory of his many accomplishments in the area of hu- man rights awareness. The students active in the Associa- tion of Minority Collegians sponsored a campus activity which served to remind students of the suitable recognition of this day. On the night of the 18th. the organiza- tion held a candlelight vigil in honor of the respected black leader. Nursing Accredited The University’s nursing program gained national accreditation in Novem- ber of 1987. The accreditation was granted by the National League for Nursing after a two-year evaluation took place. Presi- dent Samson commended the program’s leader Dr. Mary Martin for her efforts while commenting that the accreditation was long overdue. Students involved in the program were very relieved that they were now ac- credited. The accreditation was celebrated by a reception in the Trustees dining room on December 3. Brust Receives Honor Peter Brust was voted by other coaches in the Sunshine State Conference as Women’s Cross Country Coach of the Year. This was a state-wide honor. Brust said that he did not expect the award and was shocked when he received it. This was Brust’s first year of coach- ing at the University of Tampa. Overall, he was pleased with his teams perform- ance during his first year working with them and looked forward to next year. Possible Candidate The start of the academic year brought with it the start of the presiden- tial race. This year, there was one female hopeful who started in the race during campaign '88. The woman was Represen- tative Patricia Schroeder (D) from Colo- rado. During the beginning of her campaign tour in September, she visited the Univer- sity of Tampa to inform students of the current issues which faced them. Schroe- dcr gave a short speech during which she outlined her political goals and beliefs. Af- terwards, she answered questions from re- porters. Although Congresswoman Schroeder was expected to announce her bid for the presidency during her visit at the Univer- sity, this did not happen. In fact. Schroe- der never officially announced that she was running for president, and in the months that followed, she dropped out of the race entirely for personal reasons. At a press conference in October, she became very emotional while announcing that she did not see any possible way that she could run for the presidency this time. She did, however, hint that she may be back in the running in 1992 after she had a chance to get more resources together. Visits University Many criticized her outpouring of emo- tions, arguing that it exemplified weak- ness. Analysis after her withdrawal point- ed out that Schroeder simply did not get an early enough start on the campaign trail. Like most candidates, she lacked necessary funds to continue in the race. Being a woman, she was also faced with another obstacle: Was the country ready to have a woman for president? At this point, the answer was probably no. Reikofski Leaves University in October On October 26. Scott Reikofski. Di- rector of Student Activities, resigned from his position. Reikofski said that he re- signed as a result of ongoing personal and professional conflicts with other members of the University staff. Many were sur- prised at the move, but Reikofski said that it was something he had been thinking about and the move was not hastily made. “I enjoy the students. It was difficult (to leave) ” he said. Reikofski was not certain what he would do after leaving the University. Upon reflection he said that he might pos- sibly go to school to earn his doctrate. His responsibilities were delegated to Tina Rainers who had been the Assistant Director of Student Activities under Rei- kofski. Boathouse Begins The construction for the long awaited boathouse began on September 15. The fa- cility. when completed, would house stor- age areas, workshops, offices, and housing for up to 86 athletes. The project was expected to cost $350,000. $125,000 for the project was do- nated by Van L. McNeel, chairman of the Polymer International Corporation. His contribution was an effort to have a part in the development of the greatest crew training center in Florida . The ground breaking ceremony took place on the morning of September 4 on the portion of the Hillsborough River which runs behind the Merle Kelcc Library. The revenues expected from visiting teams using the boathouse is expected to be $25,000 per year. These funds, if real- ized. would make the boathouse self-sup- porting. FEATURES 47 | 48 FACULTY AND ADMINSTRATION 1988 MOROCCAN FACULTY AND ADMINISTRATION 49 ACADEMICS ■i A ■ Wmm r MESSAGE FROM T HE PRESIDEN T To Members of the Class of 1988: The theme for your Moroccan this year is “Into Or- der.” It is an appropriate term for what is happening today at the University of Tampa. We are an ever-changing institution and each change pushes us a little further toward our destiny. Each new class and each new student has an experience unlike any who have preceded them. Each new President, like myself, brings to the University a new feeling for what should be. Our last year has been a time of great change. The celling year will be a time of getting things into order for a changing fu- ture. You can see the evidence all around you. The restoration of UT’s Minarets are the most obvious symbol. Other, more subtle changes arc in the winds. A new College of Business will greet in- coming freshmen next fall. New computers, more faculty, research grants, and better sports teams all signify that UT is changing to meet its challenging new future. Those who tire of change and challenge arc the only ones sure to falter. You, as the class of 1988, are getting things “Into Order” as you prepare to move into another phase of your lives. It is important for us to remember that you are the reason we are here, that your accomplishments and efforts make UT a very special place. We expect that as you graduate and move into new careers, you will create order from chaos, and your works will continue to enrich The University of Tampa. Good Luck. Sincerely, Bruce A. Samson President of the University 50 FACULTY AND ADMINISTRATION ACADEMICS ■ THE ■ DIVISION OF EDUCATION The philosophy of the Division of Education is that a broad liberal arts background with profes- sional preparation, including early and varied clinical experience, is an important aspect offered by the University. Students majoring in education are preparing for careers in the broad areas of teaching, adult fitness, recreation, sports management and other related fields. The success of the Division of Educa- tion is due primarily to the excellent facul- ty, the wide variety of majors, the new, modern facilities, and the numerous inter- ships offered by this department. The Faculty members of the Division of Education are: Dr. Judy Bohren, Divi- sion Chair, Dr. Alice Rodriguez, Dr. Rob- ert Birrcnkott, Ms. Ruth Bragg, Dr. Hel- ene Silverman. Dr. Eric Vlahov, and Mr. Edward Cloutier. The small class size allows the faculty to spend more time with each student. Partnership learning makes student advis- ing an important faculty function. Each student is assisted in obtaining their de- gree through scheduled advising where course selection, career alternatives, and special opportunities are discussed with a faculty member specializing in their field of study. The learning labs, computer centers, telecommunications facilities and scientif- ic equipment provide the finest learning environment available at a small liberal arts university. Career teaching opportunities in fast- growing Florida are considered to be excel- lent and UT, as an expanding school, at- tempts to accommodate this growing pop- ulation with the various programs offered through departments such as the Division of Education. FACULTY AND ADMINISTRATION 51 ACADEMICS II THE DIVISION OF ECONOMICS AND BUSINESS Almost fifty percent of the undergraduates entering U.T. pursue one of the seven Business and Economics majors, making this division the University’s largest. Students may major in Accounting, Business. Management. Economics, Finance, Management Information Systems, Marketing, or Quantitative Analysis. The success of this Division is largely due to the faculty. Virtually all of the faculty in the Economics and Business division have earned terminal degrees in their chosen fields. Though many of them are recognized scholars and researchers, their principal concern at U.T. is student growth. Using their resources and knowledge, the faculty encourages the development of the students they teach. By allowing undergraduates to share and participate in many research projects, the faculty heightens the practical working knowledge of the student. Faculty- student ratios of 1-30 or less optimize the size of classes for evolvcment of an individual’s strengths and skills. Through a wide variety of courses and special programs, undergraduates gain the knowledge and practical skills they need to succeed in their chosen occupations. The top notch facilities and internships at U.T. prepare students with the necessary tools to obtain their future goals. Facilities include the Robert A. Jaeb Computer Center, which houses state of the art NCR equipment and a new $100,000 microcomputer center. Not only has this facility helped put U.T. in the forefront among southern institutions offering computer science majors, it also provides all students on campus, no matter what their major, the opportunity to become computer literate. Since the University has such a good relationship with the business community, internships at U.T. are profitable for both businesses and the student. These programs, which are optional, allow students to gain experience in their fields of interest, thereby, providing them work experience in these areas. This is a tremendous head start for undergraduates since most employers use work experience as a tool for hiring. Another exciting program which has obtained notoriety is the Masters of Business Administration program. The MBA program at U.T. is highly respected by the business community both nationally and regionally. The program, established in 1973, provides the Tampa business community with a valuable opportunity for additional education. This program also allows the business community to enjoy the U.T. experience first hand. The curriculum for the Division of Economics and Business is strenuous but thorough. Every student in the Division must take a set of foundation courses in accounting, business statistics, computers, and economics. These requirements lay the groundwork for a solid basis in business. Today’s graduates need more than mechanical knowledge of the business world to be successful. We give them that, but we also teach them to be independent thinkers, decision makers and problem solvers.” • Dr. Leon Hoke, Division Chair 52 FACULTY AND ADMINISTRATION Members of the Division of Economics and Business are: Dr. Leon Hoke-Division Chair, Prof. Sandy Bolton, Dr. Peter Brust, Dr. James Fesmire, Prof. David Herman, Prof. Connie Hylton.

Joyce Foy, Administrative Assistant, Denyse Lee Pack (Division Secretary), and Karen Korbee (Clerk Typ- ist). THE ECONOMICS OF LIFE The study of Economics docs not only apply to the classroom. Everyone at some time in their life has had to make choices based on a crude cost-benefit analy- sis. “Will I go to class or crash at home on the couch?” As you can see in this view, a student has decided that the opportunity cost of missing class is greater than the fleet- ing pleasure of playing hookey, or so Profes- sor Platau hopes. FACULTY AND ADMINISTRATION 53 ACADEMICS THE DIVISION OF HUMANITIES “W e try to give students an understanding of how their fellow hu- mans through the ages have answered some of the fundamental questions about life. Such knowledge is an essential part of an individual’s growth toward personal and professional fulfillment.” - Mary Jane Schenck. Ninety-five percent of the Humani- ties faculty at the University of Tampa have earned Ph.D.’s in their chosen field. They are teacher scholars whose principal concern is student development. In addi- tion. many faculty members are nationally recognized scholars and writers, and their students have the opportunity to partici- pate in their work and research. The prin- cipal focus within the Humanities Divi- sion is the teaching-learning process and the student. The typical class size aver- ages from fifteen to twenty for freshman and sophomores and ten to fifteen for jun- iors and seniors. The Humanities Division offers ma- jors in foreign languages. English and Writing. Philosophy, and Telecommuni- cations. Modern languages introduce stu- dents to cultures with different heritages and outlooks. This enables one to partici- pate in the international community, an ability increasingly required especially in the areas of business, politics, and educa- tion. In addition to French and Spanish majors, courses are offered in Italian and German. A modern language laboratory of- fers support for classroom instruction and the opportunity to learn fluency of a lan- guage. The Humanities Division also offers both a traditional English major for stud- ies in literature and a Writing major for brrjd students who seek a degree in creative and or career writing. All freshmen are re- quired to complete the composition pro- gram which emphasizes critical thinking and the process of effective writing. The Saunders Writing Center, a computerized resource with peer tutors and individual- ized counseling, offers a support system for all courses at the University. This al- lows the students a way to receive help on writing assignments at their own leisure. Philosophy and religion courses focus on critical analysis of personal outlooks and world-view in an effort to enhance un- derstanding as well as enable one to apply knowledge to practical everyday activi- ties. Students seeking a career in develop- ing technologies will find the Telecom- munications Program emphasizes mastery over the medium of video. It is not simply a “how to” program. Students arc given an understanding of how Telecommunica- tions has developed over the past century and become a major social and cultural force. Internships with Tampa Cable are offered to Telecom majors as well. One of the special features which the Humanities division provides is visiting Writers. Students meet and talk with tal- ented and renowned authors through spe- cial programs such as the Writers at the University Series. Speakers have included Edward Albee, Peter Matthiessen and Margaret Atwood. As the Western world moves into the information age, subject matter in U.T.’s Telecommunications Program is ap- proached from the perspective of human values, and quality of life. 54 FACULTY AND ADMINISTRATION ACADEMICS Faculty members of the Division of Humanities are: Dr. Mary Jane Schenck, Division Chair, Dr. Stephen Brcslow, Rev.

Two organizations on campus which allow students to receive practical, hands on experience in this field are the Mi- naret and the Moroccan. Both groups work long hours trying to produce intellectual, stuctured works as well as something fun to read. However, greatness has its price. In- sanity is one of the aspects of creativity and can be seen by any brave individual invading the upstairs of the Union on a deadline eve- ning. FACULTY AND ADMINISTRATION 55 ACADEMICS THE DIVISION OF SCIENCE AND MATHEMATICS The goal of the Division of Science and Mathematics is Partnership Learning. “Partnership learning” means that students not only pursue traditional class work, but also work side by side with the faculty members on interesting research projects. This 'Division feels that Science and Mathematics can best be learned through direct participation. “The primary goal within the Division is to provide the student with an opportunity to become an active participant in the study of science and mathematics through close interaction with the faculty. Course work, laboratory experience and undergraduate research projects are all designed to prepare the student for independent thinking and problem solving.” • Fred Punzo Majors are offered in Biology, Chemistry and Mathematics. In addition, there are joint majors in Biochemistry, Marine Science Biology. Marine Science Chemistry, Marine Science Biology Chemistry, Medical Technology, and Mathematical Programming. The Faculty play a major part of the Science and Mathematics division. Individual attention is given to each student. Instructors help undergraduates on research projects, some of which have been published in scientific journals. These findings have been so reliable and valid, in some cases, they have even been presented at Scientific conventions. Modern Facilities are another plus for this Division. Undergraduates have full use of modern laboratories, which are equipped with IR and UV spectrophotometers. NMR spectrometers, gas and liquid chromatographs, electropho resis equipment, microbial and tissue culture equipment and photomicroscopcs. The University also owns and maintains a fully equipped forty five foot teaching research vessel for the study of estuarine and marine ecosystems. Internships allow students to obtain hands on experience in medical and veterinary quality control laboratories, environmental assessment agencies, and research laboratories. Through these programs with private industries and governmental agencies, students gain job experience in areas ranging from microbiology and fisheries biology chemistry to wetlands ecology and mariculture. Other activities to promote the explanation of the Science and Mathematics division are student run Biology, Chemistry and Mathematics organizations. Meeting regularly, these groups sponsor seminars which provide opportunities to interact academically and socially at professional meetings both on campus and off. Using the excellent education this division provides, graduates find jobs with the Florida Department of Environmental Regulation, the Federal Environmental Protection Agency, Pharmaceutical and other health-related industries, universities, environmental consulting firms, telecommunications, and other private businesses. Students have also been accepted at highly regarded schools of medicine, pharmacy, and optometry. Graduates have been accepted into doctorate research programs at U.C.L.A., Stanford, Duke, Stoneybrook, and the University of North Carolina. 56 FACULTY AND ADMINISTRATION Faculty members of the Division of Science and Mathematics are: Dr. William Wayne Price-Division Chair.

All stu- dents are encouraged to participate in any ex- periments, the only requirement being that they have a substantial life insurance policy. FACULTY AND ADMINISTRATION 57 ACADEMICS THE DIVISION OF 58 FACULTY AND ADMINISTRATION for a career in social services, criminal jus- tice, politics, law. social research or busi- ness. - Constance Rynder, Division Chair. In addition to the traditional teaching environment, this field provides students with modern, up to date facilities which enhance their text book knowledge with practical experience. Social Science majors have available to them a research center equipped with micro-computers which are specially programmed for methological in- struction. Completed in 1985, the center expands undergraduate experimentation capabilities and simulation techniques for statistical concepts. The Division of Social Sciences facul- ty consists of Prof. Constance Rynder, Chair, Dr. George Botjer, Dr. James Cov- ington, Dr. Joe Decker, Dr. Martin De- noff, Dr. Steve Hekkanen, Dr. Robert Ker- stcin, Dr. David Knottncrus, Dr. Sue McCord, Dr. William McReynolds, Dr. Linda Musante, Dr. Richard Piper, Dr. Philip Quinn, Prof. Jan Dargel, Prof. Jo- seph Kuzwayo-Norward, Prof. Carlos Mir- anda, Dr. Joseph Sclanfani, Prof. Albert Tillson, and Prof. Norma Winston. SOCIAL SCIENCES The Division of Social Sciences of- fers a wide variety of courses in the fields of Criminology, Histo- ry, Political Science, Psychology, Social Work, Sociology and Urban Studies. With such an extensive curriculum to choose from, students have a wonderful opportu- nity available to obtain a well rounded ed- ucation. The Social Sciences expose students to varied methods of inquiry and seek to increase their awareness of themselves and the social world around them. The cur- riculum provides a rigorous preparation ACADEMICS I THE | DIVISION OF FINE ARTS 4 4 TT e don't want to develop % m mindless pedantics. It w w goes beyond mere per- formance and has to do with touching the aesthetic nerve so that the individual ap- proaches life in a creative and artistic way, whether it be in music, the arts in general or business.” - Dr. David Isele The Division of Fine Arts promotes both musical understanding and the per- sonal development of students in order to prepare them for a professional career or for graduate studies at other institutions. Individual strengths and skills are nur- tured and under the personal direction of the faculty. Small student-faculty ratios enables this individual attention. This Division not only has access to an exceptional faculty but also to the new- es . most advanced facilities. An acousti cally superior conservatory was completed in 1985. This faculty-designed complex of rehearsal and teaching rooms achieves a rare creative environment for both stu- dents and faculty. Lee Scarfone Art Gal- lery is a widely-respected center for the vi- sual arts, serving students and the com- munity with displays of works by both re- gional and national artists. Recently restored and modernized, the David Falk Theater, allows ambitious and talented theatre students to participate in commu- nity-based, professional theatre. The faculty for the Division of Fine Arts consists of Prof. Joe Testa-Secca, Chair, Prof. Dorothy Cowden, Prof. Gil- bert DcMcza. Prof. Judith Edberg, Prof. Esther Glazcr, Prof. Lewis Harris, Prof. Michael Hart, Dr. David Isele, Dr. Gary Luter, Dr. Terry Mohn, Prof. Harold Nos- ti, and Prof. Malcolm Westly, Prof. Anzia Arsenault, and Prof. Susan Taylor. FACULTY AND ADMINISTRATION 59 m THE B DIVISION OF NURSING The philosophy of the Division of Nursing is based on arts, sci- ences. humanities and nursing knowledge. The Bachelor of Science in Nursing Program provides the informa- tion and experience necessary for the nurse to function as a generalist in health care areas. The program also provides the foundation for further graduate education. The B.S.N. program is designed speci- fically for registered nurses who are eligi- ble for advance placement in the nursing major. The classes contained in this divi- sion validate knowledge and skills gained through previous educational and work ex- perience. The curriculum offered by the Divi- sion of Nursing provides increased knowl- edge and education in nursing without rep- etition of prior learning. Hospital based and associate degree programs provide the foundation for extending the knowledge and experiential bases at the baccalaure- ate level. The Nursing program maintains con- tractual agreements with many local hos- pitals and community health agencies, and role development is accomplished through clinical assignments in a variety of agencies. To facilitate the University’s goal of “partnership learning”, most classes arc limited to no more than twenty four stu- dents. The Division practices the belief that experience is the most valuable at- tribute of the nurse, and this experience will increase the student’s opportunity for advancement to management positions. Faculty members in the Nursing Di- vision are Dr. Mary Martin, Division Chair, Ms. Anne Morris, Ms. Teresa Weib- ley, Ms. Nancy Talley-Ross, and Dr. Joanne Trekas. 60 FACULTY AND ADMINISTRATION ACADEMICS THE DIVISION OF MILITARY SCIENCE The Department of Military Sci- ence at the University of Tampa offers Army R.O.T.C. classes to both men and women. This highly re- spected program prepares cadets for man- agement positions in both civilian and mil- itary communities. Graduates are commis- sioned as second lieutenants and hold ju- nior executive positions in either Army Active Duty, the Army National Guard or the United States Army Reserve. In addition, the division also con- ducts a variety of social and professional activities. The Raider Unit offers instruc- tion in Ranger or small unit operations. while the drill team and Color Guard per- form ceremonies in parades, soccer games and Buccaneer football game. The Pershing Rifles is a nationally recognized social organization whose mili- taristic atmosphere provides special bonds for members. Many R.O.T.C. cadets are members and hold leadership positions within the organization. At the University of Tampa, a basic course is offered for freshman and sopho- more R.O.T.C. cadets where they become accustomed to military life, traditions and courtesies. Qualified cadets have the op- portunity to apply for Airborne School, Air Assault School and flight training during the summer. During the advanced course junior and senior cadets study leadership and management techniques and receive in- valuable experience in both areas. The ca- dets also receive a cash allowance of one hundred dollars per month. The Faculty members in the Depart- ment of Military Science are LTC. Gary Beck, MAJ David Elliott, MAJ Craig Lowman.

Upon arrival each morning, commuters could be seen prowling the parking lots in search of a spot to rest their vehicle. This often led to students destroying the traditional meaning and lending a new definition to parallel parking. In response to the growing problem, students found they frequently had to reach deep within their creative resources to dis- cover other means of transportation which re- mained unregulated by the University Police De- partment. What did this mean to the average stu- dent? Well, the student pictured here has found the river to be her last hope of easy transit and is looking for a quiet spot to dock her boat.

The many animals that naturally inhabit this territory range from the domestic to the exot- ic. UT students have a unique chance to study these animals in their natural environment. Not unlike many other science classes, students may be expected to collect specimens for in-depth study in the laborato- ry. In the picture on the right, we can see roommates praying that these dedicated scientists do not forage the river for specimens as they have just deposited Pooky their beloved, now former, suitemate. Our under- standing is that “Pooky cried out for her apricot facial scrub one too many times and friends could no longer bear her shrill whining in the night.

Simon John Smith College. It’s a heavy concept, all right. One of the big words that professionals love to toss around to make you think they’re better than you. In reality, we all know what the college expe- rience is all about. The endless hours spent each day pondering if anyone other than fellow col- leagues know of your existence on this planet. One of the main lines of communication between the college student and the outside” world is the mailbox. Many students however, do not receive this mail on a regular basis. This condition often leads some misguided students to believe that postal workers deliberately keep student mail for themselves. Yes. it’s unfortunate but many be- lieve this condition to be one of reality. On the picture to your right we find two desperate girls who find themselves in this situation. It can only be theorized from their expressions that they are planning a hostile takeover to free their impris- oned mail. As soon as the R.O.T.C. helicopters arrive, their plan will be underway. Among the ruins of the aftermath, their final goal will be re- alized - boxes will be flooded with the fruits of their labor. Of course, little do they know that they are unleashing the dreaded Mail from Hell”. 70 FRESHMEN ...

Some utilize this sandwich shop as a place to drown their sorrows after an unusually hard exam. Others find it an extremely good place to meet other lonely souls and converse about the meaning of life. A very select few. however, have decided that since only the Rat could provide them with the solace they so desperately need, that it should be considered “holy ground” and feel it nec- essary to remove their shoes.

Then real- ity. After borrowing your last funds for her poodle’s electrolysis, you may have discovered things won’t work out as planned. Lines for room changes such as the one pictured here are common before taking steps such as adding Super Glue to your roommate’s lip- stick to shut her mouth. 74 SOPHOMORES Typical Student? How do you spot the typical college student? Well, take a look at the average student pictured be- low. Note the really sweet and cutesy good looks, like she ate a bag of saccharin. Also note the imported ny- lon satchel, of obvious importance to the serious stu- dent. To see how you compare, match your clothing to her custom made clothes from Halston, her person- al friend.

For all of us, many problems may surface before the reason- able means to solving a situa- tion can be determined.

Pressures such as these may drive a person to perform activities not nor- mally experienced. As we see on the left, this lady has cho- sen a tension relaxing activi- ty verses sending a power surge through her roommates curling iron to turn those curls to ashes.

Furthermore, participation in spir- it contests showed the school that the resi- dents in Deleast got involved and was as. ’crazy as everyone else. The RA's enjoyed' 'screaming till their voices gave out, and. •the students loved the fact that their RA’s - couldn’t speak for weeks. Too bad they did; 'pot have hand cramps as well. In addition to the many tedious, time' consuming activities which filled an RA’s. :day, the DELEAST staff found time tocn- -joy normal life as well.

Many ' tense college students relieved that situa- tion by takinR advantage of the massage booth sponsored by DELEAST at Octo- : berfest. Not only were students very re- • laxed for the remainder of the day, but ; very glad they decided to put themselves • in the hands of this group. Anchorsplash was another event where DELEAST R.A’s were opening , eyes. Participation here eventually led to a third place prize for the group. By being so involved with on campus events, the DELEAST R.A.’s made sure that their presence was known. Probably the best known and most . popular event conducted by the DE- LEAST Resident Advisors and enjoyed by the Dclo residents was the first annual Pri- ! mal Scream. This was a way in which resi- dents could let the frustrations of over- work and too much knowledge of final exam week out. From 10:00 P.M. to 10:05 P.M. on exam nights, the residents were allowed to scream and yell as a break from the monotany of studying. Q105 joined in this ritual and played wild, outrageous mu- sic for that short time period before every- mp,. . m. ,u� i i., i .in.ij • ■■ ■ 'a� .; v. . . ::v. .v.

Organized in 1981, The University of Tampa Honors Program differs from honors programs at most other universities because of its exceptional approach. It doesn’t begin and end with a narrow selection of courses. Here, a broad-ranging theme - such as “Learning Through the Conflict of Ideas” or Period Study” - is chosen for a year long investigation through a variety of courses in many of the academic disciplines offered at the University. Honors students deal with this theme by taking at least one special honors course connected with it and by voluntarily participating in special honors events. The Honors Program is designed to offer a panora- ma of special classes, but also much more: events that enrich the student’s studies, contract courses, personal assessment and recommendation files, and opportuni- ties to pursue a thesis and to study abroad. “It is never enough to prepare our students to live in the world; we must prepare them to shape it. If all we achieve is the former, we leave our students prison- ers of the world. We must always help others to see not only what is, but what can be dreamed; not only what they arc, but what they can be.” - Dr. Frank Gillen, Director of the Honors Program Members of the Honors Program include: Ted Adam, Maureen Adams.

Upon completing the ROTC curriculum, cadets are commissioned into various branches of the Army such as the active Army, the Army National Guard, and the United States Army Res- erves. The curriculum at the university includes leadership labs and classes in military customs and tactics. All classes are taught by officers in the United States Army. In addition to classes conducted at the university, the cadet’s curriculum includes Advanced Camp which is a six week training period at Fort Bragg. NC. This is designed to condition the cadets in preparation for their lives as Army officers. One of the skills which is stressed heavily by the ROTC program is leadership. As a result, ROTC participants are ac- tive in many other organizations on campus. Members in ROTC are: Desirae Allen. Kevin Alten- stadter. Barry Amos. Mike Anderson. Joseph Andris.

UT RAIDERS The Raiders program at the University of Tampa is an extension of the regular ROTC curriculum and helps develop a cadet’s technical proficien- cy in military skills. Raiders perform more in-depth training and are modeled on the Ranger Special Forces concept of elite troops. Raiders are distinguished from other military forces by their black beret. For higher levels of achievement, an insignia is added to the beret. Participation in the Raiders program is on a volun- teer basis. Trainees must per- form many rigorous tasks to earn their beret. These tasks in- elude: completing the Army combat survival test, perform- ing an 11 mile march while car- I rying their equipment, carrying lr someone their own weight for a short period in a given period of IT' time, running 5 miles in combat fe uniform, and passing the Army Ml ■ Physical Readiness Test. r After earning the beret. I Raiders go through additional tactic training. They partici- pate in Field Training Exer- ciscs :FTX). The FTX train- ing includes land navigation. survival training, radio proce- A durcs. and camouflage. ttj M - Some of the Raiders activi- tics can’t be performed on cam- I pus. Things such as rappeling and rope slides arc per- formed at the Tampa Fire Department training site. This year there’s something new going on at ROTC schools across the country - The Raider Chal- lenge. This is a competition between schools to deter- mine which school is the most proficient at military skills such as marksmanship, crossing a one-rope bridge, and a road march. Raiders have priority in se- lection for the team. The training for this competition is very rigorous, and, like all other Raider activities, helps these future army officers learn to trust their equipment and build self-confidence.

One was taking an active role in both University policy and deci- sions. General Assembly served as a forum for students to express their views. In addition, quality campus programming for all students was pro- vided. Among goals set by SG. was to in- crease communication with student groups and the residence halls. SG pledged to maintain a level of quality programming that equaled or surpass- ed that which was demonstrated in the past. The final goal was maintain- ing a good rapport with the adminis- tration. which led to an effective Stu- dent Government. The Executive Board, the core of SG. consisted of elected officers of SG. appointed officers, and the three edi- tors of student publications. Through weekly meetings, this board coordi- nated their activities and served as a support organization offering sugges- tions and guidance. Each senator chaired one of the programming com- mittees. In addition to handling day- to-day affairs, they were responsible for campus programming. They also served as a link between students and administrative officials. The Executive Board reported weekly to the General Assembly which consisted of independents and representatives from campus organi- zations and residence halls. These members helped to shape the policies of SG in addition to serving on pro- gramming committees. Jeffrey Chaffin, a senior majoring in Biology, served as SG President. This was Jeff’s fourth year as an elect- ed officer of Student Government. He previously held offices of Freshman Senator. Sophomore Senator, and Vice-President. For Jeff, involvement in SG has proved to be a valuable ex- perience. He also felt that working with the committee structure and the administration was equally as valu- able. This experience led Jeff to reduc- ing the size of the General Assembly, encouraging the members to become more involved and thus more impor- tant. Steve Nicolucci. a senior major- ing in Political Science, served as Vice President of SG. He has been involved with Student Government for two years. He was elected Attorney Gener- al his Sophomore year and Junior Sen- ator the proceeding year. Steve’s job was to preside over the General Assembly meetings. This required a good working knowledge of Robert’s Rules of Order that were used for legislation and appropria- tions requests presented to the Gener- al Assembly. With changes in the constitution. SG now had a combined Secretary- Treasurer position. Serving in that ca- pacity for this year was Mark Gorski. a native from Tampa. Mark was re- sponsible for financial obligations as well as the correspondence from Stu- dent Government. Further changes also necessitated that Senior Class President Dan Ellis serve as the At- torney General and oversee the elec- tions. The constitutional changes also created the position of Senator at Large. This position was filled by se- nior Renee Morgan who chaired the Special Events committee. Two mem- bers of the Executive Board arc ap- pointed by the president. Paul Pigna- taro was appointed to Academic Af- fairs. Jason Silvis was appointed Stu- dent Affairs Chairperson. Student Government had two ad- visors. Dr. Richard Piper served as the faculty advisor for SG for ’87 - '88. He assisted SG in election and parlia- mentary procedures and brought a sense of past precedence to the meet- ings. Tina Reiners served as adminis- trative advisor to SG and assisted with programming as well. Individual attention on her part helped to insure that programming ran smoothly. The members of the 1987-1988 Student Government Executive Board are: Jeffrey Chaffin, Steve Ni- colucci. Dan Ellis, Renee Morgan. J.T. Patton, Alan Randolph. Julie Cum- mings. Mark Gorski.

The Committee kicked off the fall semester with OKTOBER- FEST, followed by the Holiday Re- ception in December, Harold’s club in January, and Goofy Games for Sun Jam in April. These functions were so involved that the cooperation of all the Execu- tive Board and other committee mem- bers was vital for the successful imple- mentation of the events. One goal of the Committee was to bring together students, faculty, and staff in an at- mosphere that was festive and encour- aged interaction between the groups. OKTOBERFEST. the largest event of the fall semester, was a day- filled with food, fun and entertain- ment. This year it was held in Plant Park and near the fountain outside Plant Hall. Organizations and Resi- dent Halls sponsored game booths and were eligible for over two hundred dollars in prizes. The Best Booth prize went to the McKay residence hall who threw “goop” at their RA’s. The Best Attendance award went to the Theta Chi Pledges who sold tye-dye items. Entertainment consisted of the Bar- ney Barnhart Oompah band perform- ed and judged the annual polka con- test. Straight from Myrtle Beach, the Atlantic Breeze Band also entertained students with a variety of Top 40 mu- sic. Traditional foods such as brat- wurst and knockwurst were served in addition to the grains and hops mix- ture in the Rathskeller. The low ad- mission price included a souvenir mug, Alpine hat, and a koozie imprint- ed with, For a good time call Student Government at Ext. 591”. The annual Holiday Reception allowed students and faculty to cele- brate with their UT families prior to leaving for Christmas vacation. Stu- dents had their picture taken with Santa, listened to holiday music, and enjoyed traditional holiday foods. Harold’s Club, the casino night held annually at UT. transformed the Student Union into a Nightclub. Casi- no games such as blackjack, beat the dealer, and roulette were featured while students were entertained by co- median Eddie Strange and a Top 40 band. The theme for this year’s Har- old’s Club was “A Night on the Town with Student Government.” Prizes were awarded to those who were suc- cessful in their gambling efforts and everyone received a frosted tumbler and a ticket key chain. The final event sponsored by the Special Events Committee was Goofy Games. These games took place dur- ing the fourth annual Sun Jam and al- lowed teams to win cash prizes. The theme for this event was UDo k in the Sun with Student Government, AGAIN.” The Special Events Committee was chaired by Renee Morgan, Sena- tor at Large. This was Renee’s second year on Student Government and she brought her vast experience to the Special Events Committee. « 166 STUDENT GOVERNMENT ARTS AND LECTURES The Arts and Lectures Commit- tee sponsored a combination of informative speakers who spoke on topics that attracted UT stu- dents as well as provided a forum for lively entertainment. Although the original goals of the committee would appear to be the enter- tainment of students, many of the events that were sponsored by the com- mittee left important messages for them to ponder. Each event was created with a particular theme in mind that was of- ten a controversial subject both on cam- pus and off. Examples of important to- pics explored during the year were safe sex, victim rights, and drug awareness. One of the first events to be spon- sored during the year was an invitation to spcakcr modcl Marla Hanson who spoke on victims rights. Marla, the New York model who was maliciously attack- ed by her landlord’s thugs, was mentally berated during the trials following the crime. In addition to the anguish she had to face after the brutal attack, she told students of the state prosecutor who portrayed her as a manipulating whore. As Marla continued to recount her story, students gained an insight regarding the judicial system and the manner in which some victims are unfortunately treated. SLASHED” was the theme of this event and was filled by a capacity crowd (see full story on page 242). James Peterson, who has written the Playboy Advisor for over 15 years, spoke on sex and related topics to over 250 students in Falk Theatre. After his talk. Peterson entertained questions of all types. Although the event was con- sidered controversial because of the na- ture of the topics discussed, it was hailed as an educational tool that delved into a topic that sparked interest on the part of many students. The event proved to be very popular with recent devel- opments of both sexual attitudes and apprehensions because of situations such as the AIDS crisis. Susan Newman arrived on campus in the fall to point out to students that all people have choices to make in their lives and should exercise their options to do so. In addition to making her point about available alternatives known, Susan communicated her feeling that Hollywood was not doing their part be- cause of the shows and advertisements they produced which glamorized drugs and other illegal paraphernalia. Al- though Ms Newman claimed she was not necessarily anti-drugs”, she stated that everyone has the inherent right to make the choices concerning their lives and she hoped by speaking across the country she would be able to convince, in her words, at least one individual to make the right choice”. Although Ms. Newman arrived late because of infa- mous Tampa fog surrounding the air- port, her anxious crowd warmly received her message and welcomed her refresh- ing viewpoint. “I’m sorry to ruin your perspec- tive.” she said, “but you will never watch television or listen to the radio again and not notice how they (the me- dia) promote those ideas in even the most subtle ways.” Her conclusion was followed by a question and answer ses- sion which was enthusiastically received by students. Freshman Senator Julie Cummings chaired the Arts and Lectures commit- tee and was charged with securing all of the speakers sponsored at the events. Julie performed an outstanding job considering she did not take on the position until late in the first semester” said Jeff Chaffin, president of SG. In addition, the Arts and Lectures Committee brought many entertainers to campus. Returning this year was the Astonishing Neal, who bent keys before, the eyes of students. In addition to his metal works. Neal’s uncanny ability to hypnotize individuals astounded both students and spectators. THIS PAGE TOP; James Patterson. The Playboy Advisor.

Alan was a sophomore sena- tor and brought a great deal of energy and new ideas to the committee. The Recreation and Activities Committee programmed events at UT which af- fected students on a day-to-day basis. It was their responsibility to give stu- dents outlets from the daily classroom atmosphere. They had a difficult job to perform, but the members, led by Alan Randolph, pulled together to complete their tasks with a spirit of teamwork. Movies such as About Last Night.” Top Gun.” and Back to School” were shown on a regular basis in the TV lounge of the Student Union on Tuesday. Wednesday, and Thurs- day evenings. These movies were cho- sen because they were entertaining and of interest to the students. Tickets to the Tampa Bay Bucca- neers games were offered during the fall National Football League season so that UT students could attend as a group. These tickets sold out in one day due to the outstanding support of the students. The day was enjoyed by all of those who attended. Magicians performed astounding feats in the cafeteria as another proj- ect of the group. In addition, snow cone socials were held on the front porch of Plant Hall throughout the year. Other food events took place around campus at various times. These were just some of the events sponsored by the committee. These events were such that students were constantly becoming involved with them. The main event highlighting the year concerning recreation and activi- ties was Reggaefest. This weekend consisted of music by the JOHU- KAMES band. The band performed in Plant Park, where many of the stu- dents danced and enjoyed the reggae beat. The limbo contest was a great success as everyone gathered around chanting “HOW LOW CAN YOU GO!!” T-shirts and buttons were sold displaying the theme “Cool Run- nings.” What does that mean, you ask? Everything is good, everything is OK, was the best definition offered to us. The t-shirts which were sold dis- played the saying It’b dun by Stu- dent Government,” keeping in with the reggae flavor. The committee also co-sponsored the International Day with the Inter- national Student Organization. Inter- national students prepared foods from all over the world to be enjoyed by those attending. In addition, both stu- dents and faculty listened to the mu- sic of the JOHUKAMES reggae band. The theme of the day was to confirm that every student at UT is an inter- national student whether they were native Americans or from another country. The Recreation and Activities Committee offered to students a vari- ety of activities where they could get away from academic pressure and ex- perience something new while still in- volved in the learning process. STUDENT GOVERNMENT 171 Hailing Greenville. South Carolina as his home. Se- nior Class President Dan Ellis chaired the Senior Committee. This committee was charged with coordinating the Homecoming Dance and Commencement Exer- cises. In addition. Dan organized the Senior Sea Escape Cruise in the Fall and was placed in charge of the second annual Minaret Run. the proceeds of which went to the restoration of the Minarets that adorn Plant Hall. Under his leader- ship. the Senior Committee provid- ed activities which led to a memora- ble year for seniors at UT. One of the primary responsibili- ties of the committee was to keep the seniors updated on all events occurring on the UT campus. This was accomplished through Senior Class meetings and memos sent to the seniors through campus mail. The prime focus of this committee, however, was to successfully orga- nize the most important event in the life of a college student, gradua- tion. Through the Senior Committee, seniors made their desires concern- ing graduation known to adminis- trative officials, specifically the lo- cation of the commencement cere- mony. Graduation on Plant Porch was a tradition which had come close to ending within the last sev- eral years. Through close communication with the board of Trustees, a list of prospective Commencement speak- ers was formulated and the Senior Committee was then charged with securing one of them. The final list of speakers included notable names such as Jay Leno. Malcolm Forbes. Lee Iacocca. Senator Bob Graham. Donald Trump, and Dr. Dennis Pu- pello. The Senior Sea Escape, held in the Fall, was very successful Over thirty seniors participated and had a good time out in the middle of the ocean. Activities on the cruise were bountiful and seniors could be seen entering the golf-driving tour- nament, skeet-shooting, and gam- bling of all sorts. Of course, being students, the seniors felt obligated to familiarize themselves with the numerous lounges on the ship. This and all the other activities spon- sored by the Senior committee al- lowed the seniors of UT to realize how much they will always treasure the memories of their college years. SENIOR COMMITTEE 172 STUDENT GOVERNMENT MUSIC COMMITTEE The Music Committee was an integral part of Stu- dent Government, spon- soring various musical acts and ac- tivities across campus. MusicFest kicked off the fall semester. The all day affair allowed students to enjoy Top 40 bands while relaxing in Plant Park. Another successful activity sponsored by the music committee was ReggaeFest This music event included various activities, such as a steel drum band provided a heavy percussion beat throughout the day. In addition to providing live music to dance by, this year the committee was also charged with the purchase of a new DJ system. This system, which included over three thousand dollars worth of high quality equipment, was avail- able for student organization use in addition to being available for use at Student Government functions. The equipment purchased included two turntables, a mixing board, and equalizer. Student Government President Jeff Chaffin commented that the most important feature of the new system was the mobility of all of the components. With the new stereo system, Student Govern- ment sponsored DJ’s in the Rat on Tuesday and Friday evenings, and gave away prizes for Music Trivia. With the renewed interest in the Rathskeller, the committee pro- moted this enthusiasm with more music in the Rat. One of thj first events to be sponsored was the Stu- dent Band Rocktober. The band was welcomed by a large reception and encores were often heard waf- ting through the floor of Plant Porch late at night. In the Spring, Sun Jam was planned by the committee and stu- dents eagerly looked forward to this event. The students danced in Plant Park to the theme Do it in the Sun with Student Government, AGAIN! Two bands played throughout the day in Plant Park. Other events for which the Music Committee played an important part included Harold’s Club and at other various Student Government functions. J.T. Patton served as chairman of the Music Committee. Patton, a Biology major with ambitions of Medical School, aspired to increase the number of musical performan- ces on campus during the year by hiring student bands. With this in mind, his committee worked to im- prove and increase the musical awareness of students on campus. STUDENT GOVERNMENT 173 N01DV NI os tn Year in and year out we all hear a traditional farewell speech and suffer through the boring and tedious routine. My experience in SG has been neither boring nor tedious, but rather exciting and stimulating, thus I will break from tradition and do this letter my way. We had many goals this year for SG and I feel we were successful in maintaining quality programming for all students as well as addressing student concerns to the admin- istration. Four short years ago I was elected Freshman Senator. Frankly, I was quite nervous being far away from home, but after four years in SG I have a few thoughts to leave people as I embark on a new challenge. Being of SUPERIOR mind and EXTRAORDINARY body, I bequeath the following: To Julie Cummings, Freshman Senator, a new laugh. To Paul Pignataro, Academic Affairs Chair, a new campaign slogan for his next elec- tion, “Think Pig has got to go. To Alan Randolph, Sophomore Senator, a bad attitude as he is always so positive. By the way, what does Cool Runnings” mean anyhow. To J.T. Patton. Junior Senator, a D.J. system of his own so he can work with Dave and Mike forever. To Renee Morgan, Senator at Large, a new title, maybe SG could use a S-4 and driv- ing lessons on Davis Island. To Mark Gorski, Sec-Treas., Dance Lessons, don't ask me why. To Steve Nicolucci, Vice-President, Another election, just for fun. To Jim Collins, Pscudo-SG, a permanent free pass to Oktoberfest as it is his favorite holiday, and a complete set of markers for those late nights when he can’t sleep. Thank goodness we have Pete. To Dr. Piper, Faculty Advisor, 10 more years with SG, Thanks for all your help. To Tina Reiners, Staff Advisor, another group just like us, then we know that you’ll have to retire early. To Jeff Klepfer, Dean of Students, another president to lunch with every other week and one that will be another “ulcer” to you. To The Student Body, Thanks for giving me the opportunity to serve you as Student Government President. It is one thing I will never forget. Jeffrey G.

Composed of three elected executive board officers from each sorority on campus, the membership is designed to afford equal representation to all of the so- rorities on campus. In addition, there arc also two elected members from each chap- ter who make up the general body of the council. The Council remains busy most of the year promoting interfraternity relations and organizing several “all Greek” events such as: leadership training seminars. Greek Week, and Pledge Enrichment Week. The council is also responsible for coordinating the RUSH program each se- mester. With these programs, the council stays active during the year insuring their visibility on campus. In additon to their regular functions, this year Panhcllcnic had its first Holiday Celebration for the greek community. It was a party to honor all members and in- stall new officers. The year has been very productive, including events such as: Pledge Debut and joint Panhcllcnic and Interfraternity Council meetings. These have produced a feeling of unity that will last for great years to come! The members of the Panhellenic Council are: Marci Trapani, Melanie May- nard. Debbie Tamborello. 178 GREEKS -—«——a. RHO LAMBDA Rho Lambda is an honorary society for greek women who have dis- played outstanding academic ability and leadership within both the greek system and their sorority. In addi- tion to these attributes, loyalty to their so- rority while attending the University of Tampa is another factor considered when choosing these select greek individuals. While the membership is relatively small, it may be related to the fact that these women represent the top ten percent of the Panhellenic membership. Therefore it can be said with confidence that Rho Lambda contains the best that sororities have to offer. Rho Lambda provides the opportuni- ty each year for new members to prove worthiness to join the ranks of the present members. While the conditions for mem- bership are stringent, new members are still chosen each year to join this elite group of greek women. The selection process is lengthy and is based on recommendations of the pres- ent members. The final roster represents the highest achcivcmcnt for which sorori- ty members can obtain.

Alpha Chi Omega cele- brated their one hundred and second birthday with a gathering of sisters and alumni throughout the area. During Ok- toberfest the sorority sponsored The Mad Hatter” booth. A first this year, the sisters of Alpha Chi Omega actively partic- ipated in intramural sports in hopes of ob- taining an intramural championship title. During Family Weekend the sisters sponsored a Wine and Cheese party for both members and their families. At the same time, sororities and fraternities were involved in Pledge Enrichment Week. The Alpha Chi Omega pledges took the spot- light. Winning first place in the Pledge Sing, the pledges also participated in the Greek Trivia Game, Service Project, and the Pledge Debut.

Since that time the sis- ters have endeavored to exemplify the ideals of the six founding members. After winning Sorority of the Year in the Spring of 1987 for the second consecu- tive year, the sisters continued to show their outstanding leadership and success in the 1987-1988 academic year. The new year began with a terrific rush as many enthusiastic girls joined the sisterhood. Activities in which the new pledge sisters participated (along with the initiated members) included intramural games, socials, Alcohol Awareness Week and many other exciting events. The Delta Beta chapter was the proud host of Province Day for all of the chapters of Delta Zeta. During the event, the Delta Beta chapter won numerous honors such as most improved chapter over the past two years. The second annual Paint the Town Week” proved very successful in raising money for our National Philanthropy which helps the speech and hearing im- paired. Events such as the Line Dance Competition, Hat Snatch, and Body Painting contest helped to make fun for everyone who participated. The chapter also held other fundraisers to support the philanthropy. The annual retreat was held this year at Daytona Beach. Swimming, volleyball, sunning, laughing, and a good time was en- joyed by all those who attended. The to- getherness and sisterhood that were shored proved memorable to all. The feel- ings experienced were fostered through ac- tivities so that it would grow during the year. Near the end of the year Delta Zeta participated in Greek Week and the Phi Delt Frolics. 1 184 GREEKS DELTA ZETA ______________. The end of the year finally came and with it the traditional formal. Everyone who attended was dressed formally to ac- centuate the occasion. This, along with good food, music, and company made the formal a most memorable event. During the annual Delta Zeta ban- quet, the seniors last will and testaments were read. Other awards were given to the other sisters attending and the fabulous slide show brought tears to the eyes of ev- eryone.

The IFC sponsored many events throughout the year including the United Way auction at Octoberfest. Alcohol Awareness Week. Greek Week, and many all campus-wide parties. In addition, IFC sponsors Pledge Enrichment Week. The events of the week are designed to wel- come pledges into the greek community. The event which most greeks look forward to however, is Bud Bowl. This treasured tradition is the Greek All-Star football game between UT and USF. The game was a welcome sight as the rivaled contest was unable to be held last year. The events sponsored by IFC are both educational and enjoyable by the en- tire community. Alcohol Awareness Week is a prime example of greeks showing their concern. The effects of alcohol were visibly demonstrated on individuals in Plant Lobby. The members of the Intrafraternity Council are: Robert Hawkins (President).

In addition to these duties, members of the society are responsible to set an example for which all Greeks should strive. The members are easy to recognize around the campus. With the Omega as their symbol, members wear a sash repre- senting a continuous Omega. The sash also signifies everlasting brotherhood. In addition to the many duties per- formed by the members, other activities keep the chapter busy.

The Sigma Alpha Epsilon Fraternity was founded on March 9. 1856. at the University of Alabama by eight gentlemen. Led by their founding father. Noble Leslie DeVotie. SAE sought to perpetuate the friendships they had gained as fellow students. The history of Sigma Alpha Epsilon has been a rich one which a brother takes pride in learning and sharing. The tradition that their fraternity has established has been full of innovations and superlatives on a national scale. Over the last 131 years. Sigma Alpha Epsilon has initiated over 205.000 brothers into its bonds, and this is more than any other fraternity. SAE’s Little Sister program was the first of its kind in the Greek System and remains an important part of our chapter life. The Florida Chi chapter of Sigma Alpha Epsilon was honored on October 23, 1982 when the supreme council of SAE granted them a national charter and recognized them on a national scale. When this transpired, SAE began to wear its letters and represent its chapter as True Gentleman, the guiding creed. Through both philanthropical work (Special Olympics. Big Brother- Little Brother) and on campus events (Monster Mash Bash, SAE Beach Blowout, intramurals), SAE maintained the highest possible standards and insured that pledges.

In addition, the chapter spent one weekend at “Camp with the Kids . Brothers were often faced with an- swering tough questions on growing up and had to be quick on their toes to answer them. Easter weekend was also spent with the children. In addition to the work with children, the fraternity also contributes a substantial amount to local and national Philanthropies such as the Children’s Home, the Camp Fund, and the American Heart Association, as well as to the Uni- versities Scholarship Fund.

Although not unusual, this was achieved after the sec- ond birthday of the chapter. Since receiv- ing its charter on November 16. 1985. the fraternity has proven to be a power house on campus. Sigma Phi Epsilon sponsored many events on campus such as the Fifth Annu- al Pimp and Hooker party. Beta Epsilon Phi (BEEF) Nights, and Queen of Hearts. All of these functions served to raise money for the American Heart Asso- ciation. Members also supported other fra- ternity functions such as Phi Dclt Frolics, Sigma Alpha Epsilon Monstermash, Delta Gamma Anchorsplash and Delta Zeta The Epsilon Chapter of Theta Chi at the University of Tampa was one of the oldest fraternities on campus. Founded nationally in 1856 and locally in 1956. Theta Chi has flourished due to the uniqueness of the brotherhood. The brothers of Theta Chi believe in the diversity of the Greek system and have ex- tended their belief in lending the Helping Hand” to all those who seek it. Theta Chi included a group of leaders involved not only in interfraternity af- fairs. but in the sports field and other vari- ous student organizations. Members of this brotherhood were active in organiza- tions such as Student Government. Diplo- mats. Interfraternity Council, and Resi- dent Hall Associations. Theta Chi. traditionally being a foot- ball powerhouse”, has consistently shown its ability on the intramural field and is a respected foe. This year proved no different. The athletic ability has also proven to be superior at the collegiate lev- el. with members excelling in varsity golf, tennis, and cross country. Theta Chi's in- tramural teams are recognized for their ex- ceptional athletic prowess and ability to dominate these sports events year after year. The brothers and pledges of Theta Chi arc supported by the Little Sister pro- gram which serves as a support organiza- tion for the fraternity. The Little Sisters are involved in all aspects of fraternity as well as being members of sororities and other campus organizations. Theta Chi held its 4th Annual Pajama Party and, as tradition dictates, kicked off the Greek Campus Wides. The support given by the other Greek Organizations was phenomenal and this active participa- tion ensured the success of events. In addi- 198 GREEKS 0X THETA CHI tion.

In spite of going through what must be called a rebuilding year with many new faces on the team, including a new coach, the cross country team had a successful season. The women placed second in the Sunshine State Confer- ence meet, their best finish ever, and the men, despite late season defections and injuries, finished fifth. The men's team lost five runners to graduation and transfer and one of the two returners, Pete Plattcborzc, was re- covering from an injury sustained over the summer. Three members from last year’s women’s team returned, and Cathy Rowan, who ran two years ago, also returned. Peter Brust, who took over coach- ing the cross country team from Rick Denfrund, felt that although the team was inexperienced, the talent the team possessed this year was excellent. The women started out really strong and had a good season. Cathy Rowan had a great year and I was im- pressed with the improvement of many of our women runners. The men im- proved and I was happy with their per- formances, said Brust. Rowan and Andrea Jahr earned All- Conference honors at the SSC meet; Rowan finished second in the race, while Jahr finished sixth. Tad Fichtel also earned an All-Con- ference spot on the men’s team as he fin- ished tenth for UT. In addition to the team’s outstand- ing performance this year, Brust also won honors when he was elected Wom- en's Cross Country Coach of the Year by the other coaches in the SSC. Brust was surprised to receive the award and gave a very humble reply. I was surprised when I heard about it. FIT finished two points ahead of us and I felt that the FIT coach (Jeff Small) should have gotten it. They are a perpetually strong team. I guess they figured that the FIT coach got it enough so they might as well give it to someone else.” WmM ( ' : 'illi r Jeff Leonard, Jeff Schroeder, Scott Johmon, John Finstcr, Fred Cornell, Mike Liwhr, Andy Shoup, Juan Rodrigue:, Mickey Carney, Frit: Schohe.

The Spartans went into this year’s season with a pre-season number one ranking. Winship, though, did not ex- pect the team to stay number one all year. There are too many good teams out there, Winship said. Florida Southern, Troy State and Cal-Statc Dominguez Hills will be up there with us. We’ll probably all take turns at num- ber one. This year’s golf team returned as NCAA defending national champions, the only UT team to wear that mark of distinction in 1987. As only one player did not return from last year's championship team, Head Coach Chuck Winship had high expectations for this year’s squad. Our experience will prove very beneficial. We have players who know how to win the big tournaments,” Win- ship said. Leading those players was senior Jeff Leonard. Leonard won the biggest tournament of all last year when he shot an eight-under par 280 to take the indi- vidual medal in the NCAA Division II National Tournament. Leonard finished in the top ten in four tournaments last year including first place finishes in the Music City In- vitational and the Tampa Winter Invita- tional. Senior Scott Johnson, a 1986 All- American, continued to provide stabili- ty for the team, according to Winship. Described by the coach as a steady play- er who showed well in big tournaments, Johnson tended to play better in tight situations. Sophomore John Finster provided hope for the future; last year he set a school record for stroke average by a freshman with 75.39, and finished 21 rounds with a 75 or better on his way to an Honorable Mention All-America Soccer Scores 16 wins, 3 losses, 1 tie Florida Atlantic Eckerd College Davis and Elkins Stetson University Central Florida Florida Institute of Tech Florida Southern St. Thomas Flagler Rollins College St. Leo College Florida International Boca Raton Mount St. Mary’s University of Soluth Florida Florida Inter.

Their sixteen win, three loss, and one tic record symbolized the tiring practice and effort the team put forth into this year’s season. Even though the Spartans lost to the Mata- dors of California State in the semi-fi- nals of the NCAA Division II Champion- ship, the team still finished as one of the top four teams in the nation in their Di- vision. For this excellent record, Tom Fitzgerald, the Spartans coach, was named the 1987 Division II South Re- gion coach of the year by the National Soccer Coaches Association of America. He led his team to finish with the best record the Spartans had seen since 1983. including a team record twelve shu- touts. Fitzgerald was also named the Sunshine State Conference Coach of the Year. Not only did the team have an award winning coach, but six of the players from the team were placed on the first and second teams of the Na- tional Soccer Coaches Association of America’s All-South squad. Players who made the first team were senior keeper, Frank Arlasky, senior defender, Byron Triplett, freshman defender. Jorgen Adolfsson, sophomore forward, Mika Muhonen, and senior forward. Chris Sul- livan. Receiving second team All-South honors were freshman defender, Jorgen Petersson, and senior midfielder, John Clarke. The Spartans had another honor bestowed on them by being delegated to host the National Soccer Champion- ships held on December 5 and 6. The semi-finals and final were played at UTs Pcpin Rood stadium as the four best Division II teams in the nation squared off to determine the national champion. Even though the UT soccer team did not advance to the finals, they enjoyed having the tournament so close to home. mfm •' . ' ' mmmMki wmB Adams. Ingrid Gavilan. Sue Gomales. Elisabeth Kabot.

Maureen The eleventh-ranked volleyball team closed out this year's sea- son with a 37 - 4 record overall and were ranked first with a perfect 10 - 0 record in the Sunshine State Conference. We've proved that we arc the best in the South, said coach Chris Cata- nach. We are a good, confident team, and it shows.” The Spartans won their third con- ference title in the last five years and ap- peared in their fourth NCAA Division II Tournament. Under the guidance of Catanach they reeled off a 22-match win streak to start the season. And, against Division I opponents they went 7 • 0. Two of the top players for the team this year were All-American Susanne Wolmesjo and Division II All-South re- gion Karen Solis. Wolmesjo, a junior outside hitter from Vaxjo, Sweden, was named second team All-American by the American Vol- leyball Coaches Association. Wolmesjo was named honorable mention All- American in 1985, and this year was hon- ored with All-South honors for the third time. This season she broke the school record for the most digs in a season with 516. Solis, a junior setter from Miami, broke the team’s single-season assist record with 1,346 assists. The Lady Spartans met some tough opponents this year. In the East Texas State Tournament in October, they played the number one and the number seven ranked teams in the country. Crosstown rival. University of South Florida, provided some competition for the Lady Spartans, but UT emerged the victor in both of the meetings this sea- son. Amid all the success this season though, there was one unfortunate note. One of the team’s key players, senior Adriana Alfageme developed a cyst on her brain which caused her to be in the hospital for an extended period of time and to miss two months of her final sea- son. She was treated in time to play in the last game of the season, though, and totaled four kills in the match. Volleyball (This page) Center: Tampa player slams ball onto other side.

While the man’s team only consisted of four players, they tried their best to make up for the lack of interest in their sport. Practices were long and rigorous, and the team could be seen most after- noons on UT’s courts working hard to improve their playing ability. The ’87-’88 season was not a win- ning one over all but the team did partic- ipate in many matches. Coach Don Bos- tic felt that playing regularly helped his players learn how to deal with the pres- sure that a competitive situation places on them. Exhibition games were played empty stadiums and oddly enough those games were the ones which the team won. Some honors were earned by the team members to help the players morale. Kaplan and Walsh, two of the team members came in third in number two doubles at one of the conferences. Kap- lan also came in third in number two singles in this tournament. While im- proving their playing ability, the mem- bers hoped to better the teams overall performance for next season. A major problem with UT’s tennis team was the lack of participation and support given to the team. It seemed that tennis was not a conference sport in Florida which cut down on the inter- est in this sport. Until it is accepted as a conference sport, the coach voiced his expectation that membership would re- main low. This was evident through the fact that the team had to play home matches without an audience to watch and lend its support. Coach Don Bostic remarked that all the players on this year’s team would be returning for the next season which would allow them a good head start for the next year. He seemed very hopefully about next years team and the heights to which they could soar. Bostic com- mented that he and the other members of the team were looking forward to a new year on the court. ic rtnf Kim Cremona, Lily Mangai, Either Deitch, Yvette Bonnier, Men Rossomordo, Kathy Lipman, Trish Utter. The 1987-88 Lady Spartans start- ed off their season with many changes in the softball program. The team received a new coach. Jimmy Quin, and picked up a few new freshman and transfer players to add to the team ros- ter. With these transitions, the team im- proved and won several honors in their sport. U.T. began a NCA softball team in the school year 1986-1987. Their four win and twenty loss record was not too successful, and the team felt the strong need for a change. This change came in the form of coach Jimmy Quin. Coach Quin worked the girls hard holding prac- tices for three weeks in the fall and also in the early part of January. In addition. the team played a very difficult schedule which consisted of fifty games (six of which were rained out) in a six week pe- riod of time. Quin, a former ASA junior Olympic coach, came to the University of Tampa from Manatee County where he coached softball for girls eighteen and under. In this position, he managed to cam such an excellent record that his team repre- sented Florida and Alabama at the Na- tional Conferences for three years. '79, '83 and '85, respectively. “We had a ficsty group of ladies this year. They were tough and they played their hearts out. I had a team of great girls who just didn't know when to quit.” said Coach Quin of his team. When asked to recap the year, he com- mented that the team’s record had im- proved to a winning season of eleven wins and nine losses. He also remarked that his girls played so hard that every- one on the team was injured by the end of the season. The highlight of the team’s year came with the defeat of Bar- ry University, the number sixteen rank- ed team.

Those who returned for this year’s squad included Christine Joseph, Kathy McKnight, Brian Meyers, Beth Ann Polletti, and Wanda Jordan (captain). Strong support was gained from new members on the team and included Onea Byrd, Charisse Galmiche, Judy Ristow, Christina Salem, and John Smith. The advisor for the squad was Carmen Burguct. Carmen was an Ad- ministrative Manager in the office for Institutional Advancement. With a strong cheerleading squad, both the teams playing and the crowds were encouraged to give the support needed to win. This was the fourth year for the squad, and they proved that their presence did make a difference. It’s no wonder that increased recog- nition from the athletic deportment with support from other departments has given this program the power to con- tinue and grow stronger with each sea- son.

However, even though this is a grueling sport, the 1987-88 UT crew team seemed to have seamanship mastered. The team was so dedicated that the rowers entered the water on the first day of classes to prepare for the upcoming season. Coach Bill Dunlap said of the team “It is a well rounded team and one that will be competitive.” “Our toughest competition will be F.I.T., who beat us last year in the li- ghtweight novice four. However, with the good practices we have had, we just may surprise them.” said Coxswain Jeff Alpert. The crew consisted of three differ- ent internal divisions. There were the men’s and women's varsity team which competed in both the lightweight and heavyweight competitions. The two oth- er ranks were the men's and women's novice team and the undergraduate row- ers. This year the men’s novice team was coached by Brian Saltzcr. a U.T. gradu- ate who participated in crew when he at- tended the University. There seemed to be a place available for anyone who wanted to join the team. The biggest event in the team’s year was the annual Tampa Presidents’ Cup Rowing Regatta. U.T. was once again the host and the defending cham- pion of the Presidents Cup (the overall points trophy). Of the competition, Coach Dunlap said that he expected the women's team to do well, but that his men’s program was too small to be truly competitive. The team did do well, com- ing in third with one-hundred and ten points. Another step in the direction of in- proving the crew team came with the completion of the boat house. Finally, the crew has a place to call its own. Crew (This page) Center: Team members relax at an away meet, Below left: Women's eight rows at regatta.

First year coach Kim Buford brought with her impressive credentials from the University of South Carolina. There, she led her team to an overall re- cord of 71-48. Due to their continued success over the last two years, the Lady Rifles at USC made back-to-back ap- pearances in the District VI playoffs. Along with a new coach, the U.T. team also had to adjust to the loss of four experienced players. Included among those four were First Team Academic All-Americans Penny Dickos and Cathy Fox. Returning from last year's team were seniors Lori Smith and Kim Mor- ris. Buford felt they would be her out- side shooting threats and also utilize the 3-point play considerably. Last season. Smith, a former FSU player, was second on the team in scor- ing (with a 14.0 average) and in the con- ference in 3-point goals. Named All-Sun- shine State Conference Honorable Men- tion for her performance during that sea- son. she was equally as impressive this year and led the team in both scoring and rebounding. Morris was the Lady Spartans' out- side threat where she averaged 9.0 points per game and was third on the team in 3-point field goal percentage during the 1986-87 season. Another lead- ing player on this year's team was junior Laurie Moran. Last season, Moran led the team in assists. She was the Sun- shine State Conference’s top passer with a 6.6 per game assist average last year and led the team with 71 steals. Fresh- man Lorelle Walter was also impressive during her first season at UT. The team this year was made up of seven underclassmen, and Buford agreed that, if any, the weaknesses would be due to inexperience. “The girls returning from last year’s team don’t have a lot of experience. This year will definitely be a building year for us. It will be a transition for us also, with me being new,” she said. SENIOR •piprtpn c1 Kim Morris For four years, Kim Mor- ris has majored in En- glish and played basketball at U.T. From Tampa, Morris grad- uated from Chamberlain High School and has continued to amaze audiences who come to watch the Spartan basketball games. Out of a total of 27 games this season, Morris was second on the team with 3-pointers (25 in all), and 75 assists. For the year, Morris put a total of 288 points and 91 rebounds on the board for the Spartans. During the year, Morris placed 27 of 97 points scored by the Spartans against rival St. Leo College, and made 32 out of 89 points against long standing rival Eckerd College.

For the first time during the program’s four year life, the team was without the ser- vices of three time All-American Todd Linder. However, a superb freshman class, as well as returning starters Terry Rupp. Roscoe Brown and All-American candidate Nate Johnston, helped the team to secure many victories for a suc- cessful year. Coach Richard Schmidt’s chief task was to find the right combination of players from his remarkably large pool of talent. He moved Johnston from forward position to guard, thereby tak- ing advantage of Johnston’s outside shooting ability. Brown was moved to point guard to take up the slack left by John Jones. Rupp was the only player to return to his former spot as he continued to dominate the center position once again. Freshmen players filled the other two spots. Fred Lewis, a new recruit, stepped in to fill Linder’s forward spot, while Brian Williams occupied the spot left open by Johnston. Lewis finished the season by being named freshman-of- thc-ycar in the conference which was a rather impressive title. Andrew Bailey continued in his role as sixth man. Freshman Drexal Deveaux and Kevin Starnes led the team with speed and leadership. Deveaux was named to the All-Freshman team. Other contributors were Michael Stiglich. Dan Hurley. Chris Henry. Steven Schmidt. Michael Murawski. and Adam Hurwiz. The Spartans began their season by crushing Edward Waters in the season opener, and then turned to face two Di- vision I teams, both looking for revenge after losses to the Spartans the year be- fore. The University of South Florida, a staunch rival of U.T., performed against the Spartans better than expected, but Johnston's 30-point performance helped the Spartan’s to a 79-71 win. Two days later. North Carolina State reminded the Spartans that Divi- sion II teams are not supposed to beat Division I teams by plastering UT 85-60. Nevertheless, the team had an excellent year. c: Y . ■ • .. ... •• ' '--v Y'JY-Y ■£ •;i£r §mmrnm. V;V. Top: Spartans move to catch rebound as free throw is shot. Center: Spartan throw in action.

Head Coach Ed Brennan’s men’s swim team had a fine season in 1987-88. The team ranked in the top ten during the season and were led to victo- ry by two team members, freshman Brent Imoncn and Jeff Sidor. Sidor was also the title holder for the 1986 cham- pion in the mile. In this, a rebuilding year for the team, the men placed high in many meets during the season. In fact, this team was even ranked sixth at one point in the season. Working togeth- er. the men posed a strong challenge to their competitors. In one of the many competitions, U.T.'s Jeff Sidor swan the 400 IM and the 1650 free (which he won the previ- ous year). Brent Imoncn. another team member, swam the 500 and 1650 and also a leg on the 800 free relay, with Scott Jarr, Greg Landmark and Alan Farrugia. Everyone on the team tried to give one hundred percent at all times and surpass last year's records. According to coach Ed Brennan, a major obstacle facing the swimming pro- gram at U.T. is the decrease in incen- tives used to attract swimmers. The pro- gram was cut to two scholarships each for the men's program and was sched- uled for cuts resulting in one and a half or less available scholarships in 1988-89. Unfortunately, being a private Univer- sity, scholarships must be offered to at- tract potential swimming candidates. According to the coach, this current situation has made it hard for U.T. as a private Division II school to compete nationally. Public Division II schools do not seem to share this problem as they have strong walk on programs and are not forced to give scholarships for partic- ipation. However, even with this situa- tion, the U.T. team made the most of their potential. Brennan stated his team used to be top contenders for national titles, and were also allowed to compete against some Division I teams. However, he does not feel that this kind of success will last. Due to the problems with cut backs and lack of participation in the sport, the men’s swimming team will be forced to compete in a limited area.

Led by senior Laura Atteberry. a native of Brandon, the team finished second in the nation at the national tournament. Even though Atteberry was the star swimmer, every girl on the team contributed to the team’s excellent record and outstanding victories. Coach Ed Brennan was realistic in his approach to the season. We could win this year, but we’re shooting for sec- ond.” Brennan, the swim coach at U.T. for eleven years, did a great job under the tough condidions which each new year brings. He did comment that. We’re ranked third going into the meet because we've pulled some surprises be- fore. In '86 we were ranked eleventh go- ing in and finished second. One of the stars on the team was Laura Atteberry. Atteberry won the fif- ty. one hundred and two hundred free events helping the team to a great finish in the finals. Attebcrry’s time in the one hundred was a national record and quali- fied her for the prestigious Olympic Trials. August 8. in Dallas. Her two hun- dred time also met the trials qualifying standard which was a feat only forty or fifty swimmers in the nation achieve. I don’t pay attention to the rankings. I’m swimming well... and I should do well,” said Atteberry of her performance in competitions. Another leading member of the team was Karen Pitre, another freestyle swimmer. Pitre took second in the one hundred butterfly at the NCAA Divi- sion II swimming championships. She also participated in the four hundred yard freestyle relay in which the Spar- tan ladies set a national record time. Other important leaders on the team were Kathy Ruiz, Gail Thompson, Susan Duncan, and Jenny Cornwell. All these women were ranked first or second in their respective events. These ladies, along with the rest of the team, allowed U.T. to finish in the top three for three years in a row.

Their 42-11 record earn- ed them second place ranking in the country as well as high esteem from ev- ery U.T. fan. Coach Ken Dominguez spoke high- ly of last year’s team. “This was the best team I ever coached,” he said. “This team did things that have never been done at Tampa before.” This year’s baseball team was ex- pected to again be one of the top teams in the Sunshine State Conference as well as the country. Although five key players were missing from last season's team, good recruiting efforts resulted in two quality players, Paul Russo and Sam Militello, joining the team. Junior All-American Tino Martinez was expected to have another banner year. He led the Sunshine State Confer- ence with a batting average of .422. Mar- tinez also led Division II with 82 runs batted in as a sophomore. He was the only Division II player to make the U.S. National Team that competed in the Pan American games last summer. Besides Martinez, outfielder Dean Kelley, pitcher Alan Calvo, and second baseman Joey Wardlow were on the All- Conference first team. Selected to the second team All- Conference squad were pitcher Jeff Car- ter, shortstop Rene Martinez, and out- fielder Jerry Krisiukenas. Despite the strength of the team due to the returning players, coach Dominguez predicted the biggest poten- tial weakness of the team being a lack of depth. “The team won’t have as much speed as last year, but we will play good defense and score some runs,” Domin- guez said. “The team’s top six pitchers were solid. They won’t get many strike outs ... I think of them as a finesse type staff. They need to avoid making mistakes. Sore arms for the pitchers and injuries in general could also be a deciding factor in the team’s fortune,” Dominguez con- cluded.

Across the nation, both regions and cities have stories to tell about their history. Key West has Fantasy Fcst, Wilmington, N.C. has the Azalea Festival, and New York has Thanksgiving and New Years Eve parades. Tampa is no exception, but holds true to the state theme. “In Florida, the rules are different. Instead of doing as everyone else does, the bay city celebrates one of the more popular criminals in its history. Every year in the early part of February. Tampa pays tribute to the legendary figure from its past, Jose Gaspar. Gaspar, who really did exist, never actually invaded the city of Tampa as many of the residents still adamantly claim. The legend of the Gaspar lives on however, and is one of the most exciting holidays for both children and adults who live in and around the city of Tampa. Gaspar, who later changed his name to Gasparilla, was a vicious pirate who plundered ships for their trea- sure. In addition to taking the booty from the helpless vessels, Gaspar’s men murdered the crews of the plun- dered ships to eliminate possible wit- nesses to their actions. Although the acutal background of the supposed pi- rate is cloudy, it is believed that Gas- par was born in 1756 in Barcelona, Spain to parents devoted to King and country Against his parents wishes. Jose rejected his chivalrous upbring- ing and expressed a desire for adven- ture and danger. After graduating from the Spanish Naval Academy and earning the rank of lieutenant. Gaspar was finally able to quench his thirst for adventure by setting sail on the high seas. While Gaspar was serving in the Spanish navy, Spain suffered a great defeat at the hands of the English. While the fighting was going on. Gas- par and the other members of his crew were waiting aboard the Florida Blanca to hear the decision of the Treaty of Versailles. After growing restless, Gaspar and the other sailors decided to seize the ship from the captain and set sail for the New World. While on his journey, Gaspar achieved great wealth through his evil works and eventually set up his base on Gasparilla Island off the west coast of Florida. During his conquest and raids, Gasparilla allegedly pillaged the city of Tampa. This legend is the basis for the Gasparilla Invasion Day cele- bration held each year. You may ask why Tampa would celebrate such a day. but the tradi- tion remains. Every Gasparilla Day, the pirates invade Tampa by ship and storm the city. After the pirates stagger through the city, (because of the tremendous amounts of beer consumed all day) the mayor relin- quishes the keys of the city to the drunken savages and the celebra- tion continues with growing intensity. While some call it Tampa's lame attempt to come up with a holiday, still others claim the week 230 SPECIAL EVENTS GASPARILLA OPPOSITE PAGE FROM TOP: Strawberry Queen rides in parade; Pirate ship invades Tampa; Pillaging the streets by foot.

SPECIAL EVENTS 231 SPECIAL EVENTS GASPARILLA long celebration further demonstrates Tampa’s ability to make any excuse for a day of celebrating in the streets. The main event of the week long festival is the parade down the streets of Tampa. Although many visitors may not be im- pressed by the thought of yet another parade, this by no means is an ordinary parade. Sure, it had marching bands, floats, and the usual parade paraphernalia, but does your every day parade have pirates shooting cannons and handing out bullets to chil- dren? The Gasparilla Parade does. In keeping with the theme, the main attraction of the pa- rade are the pirates who shoot blanks in their guns and hand out gold coins and other trinkets as souvenirs. Local partici- pants in the parade include bay area banks, the Hooters girls, the Tampa Bay Buccaneers, and many others. In 1987, the Gasparilla celebration was a little bit different than it had been in the past. Although the celebration and relat- ed festivities remained the same, the day on which it was regu- larly celebrated changed. In previous years, Gasparilla had al- ways been held on a Monday, the supposed day Gaspar invaded the city. This year, Yc Mystic Krcwc decided to change the sa- cred event to a Saturday. The strategy bching this (change) was to allow the few who had to work the opportunity to attend the parade.” claimed a member of Ye Mystic Krcwc who asked to not be identified. So with this in mind, the date was set. On Saturday, February 6. the pirates once again invaded Tampa. Even royalty would haw been impressed at UT’s.. Once upon a time in a far away place, a fabulous event took place in a distance castle. The setting was the Egypt Tem- ple. In front of the building, two golden lions watched as limousines pulled up and let off couples dressed in formals, suits and tuxedos who made their way into the large ballroom. The shear size of the room was enough to take one’s breathe away. After pass- ing through the entrance table, the festive decorations indicated that this fairy tale affair could be other than Homecoming. Under of Senior Class President Dan Ellis. Senior Committee K Vf « of Student Gov- ernment spent weeks planning the evening of F Jjw February 26. 1988. the Homecoming 1 dance. With the complaints ' J about the size of the facility mV 7 • B year. Ellis worked on obtaining ac 1 commodations that would adequately house the estimated crowd this year. In addition to the ballroom, limo service was provid- ed. starting at 7:00 p.m., for those able to purchase the few tickets available. One obstacle facing the committee was the distance from U.T. to the Egypt Shrine. Even though limos were provided to the first few able to purchase tickets, the distance was still noticeable. It was a far drive,” said one student, “but it was worth it to be able to dance on a big floor this year.” The large dance floor was enough to overcome this fact and was outdone only by the height of the ceiling (which added to the enormity of the room). The multi- level ceiling ended up capturing many of the purple, red, and white balloons before the evening was over. At the entrance of the ballroom, a lattice arch fol- lowed by more arches made of balloons welcomed peo- ple to both the dance floor and the many tables set up in the hall. The food tables were covered with mauve cloths and red and white candles were set up for the participants to relax after a hard night of dancing. Two bars flanked the sides of the ballroom and a buffet ta- ble, found on the right side of the hall, allowed everyone to feast on egg rolls, chicken wings, wrapped weenies, and sandwiches. A photographer was also available for those who wished to have their pictures taken. In the center of the ballroom, there was a mirrored ball providing stars for the evening.

Before the royal wedding took place, a slide show was presented with the students as the stars. Appropriate theme music was set with the slides reviewing the year on a large screen at the head of the dance floor. At 11:00, the royal couple was an- nounced. Alex Webb was crowned king, and Lisa Shetter was crowned queen. The winners from each class served as groomsmen and brides- maids respectively and the marriage of the royal couple took place. Presi- dent Samson gave away the royal bride, and the ministcr DJ “married” the couple. A little later in the evening, a drawing was held to distribute the door prizes and discover who the lucky few would be. Harriet Brodsky was the winner of a trip for two to Mi- ami and dinner at the Strand. A din- ner at CDB’s restaurant was also giv- en away. As in the storybooks, all good things must come to an end. At the strike of midnight, the limos arrived and signaled the start of the end. Stu- dents. however, were sparked by the enthusiastic music and tried to post- pone the end of this fairy tale as long as possible. The response to the dance was fa- vorable. “The dance floor was packed,” said Dan Ellis, It was really good that the place was so big.” Others enjoyed different aspects of the semi-formal event. Said Junior Darryl Young. “It was my first home- coming and I liked it. The atmosphere was great. It was like everybody knew each other.” And so at the stroke of 1:00 a.m., (the fairy godmother was generous this year), the party ended, and the horseless carriages took the enchant- ed and entertained kinsfolk home. But only until the next year. TOP: Dancers croud the large dance Hot� at the Egypt Temple Shrine. The dance Hoot was much bigger than lau year, to the enjoyment of the croud of oxer 4CO.

Re- mcmbt. cramming a whole semester’s worth of material into one long sleepless night? Remember San- ta, his elves, his sleigh and the eight tiny reindeer? Most of these memories are forgotten by students as soon as Spring semester begins, but one event that will be recalled for years to come is the excitement experienced by all at the annual UT Holiday Reception. This year’s reception was a major success due to the hard work and ex- tensive planning of the Student Gov- ernment Special Events Committee. The event was held in Plant Lobby, which had been specially decorated for the occasion, and was attended by students and faculty. A nine foot Christmas tree, a Mcnorah, and a huge bag filled with presents lit up the lobby and helped students catch the spirit of the season. Donated by a local organization who wished to remain anonymous, the Christmas tree was the most promi- nent attraction in the large lobby. Decorated with ornaments made by various organizations within the Uni- versity, the UT Christmas tree cer- tainly had a personality of its own. Some of the unique ornaments dis- played on the tree were reporter’s pen- cils from the Minaret, an Anchor made out of Christmas balls strung together Above: Returning to their childhood.

What Christmas would be com- plete without Santa Claus? Of course, he attended UT's celebration and brought with him plenty of stamina to hold several students on his broad lap. However, everyone was surprised that he did not slide down UT's chimny. College students and faculty were re- juvenated by the sight of this beloved childhood figure and could not resist a free picture with Santa. Some even brought their lists with them and were overheard requesting such items as straight A’s, promotions, and sold out Raisin guys. Santa had his hands full with this crowd. Student Government, however, was not about to let Santa be the only one to help the students catch the holi- day spirit. Distributed at no charge, Student Government gave away cas- sette tapes of everyone’s favorite Christmas Carols. It was hoped that students would not indulge in these tapes in place of studying for their exams. Next to Santa, the food table seemed to be the second biggest at- traction. Punch and Christmas cook- ies were devoured by those in atten- dance. Even the chicken nuggets, though a rather non traditional food for the season, was gobbled up in no time flat proving that free food tends to be a magnet attracting college stu- dents. The final ingredient for the recep- tion was provided by the UT chorale. Dr. Isclc and singers entertained the students with traditional Christmas carols such as Silent Night” and O Holy Night”. This talented ensemble helped everyone remember the true meaning of Christmas before travel- ling home for the holidays.

Up went the skylines and up went the moons: While the students were studying all snug in their beds. Renee and her staff put together their heads. While some students were preparing for exams, the members of the Student Government Special Events Committee were busily preparing for Harold's Club. With this year’s theme. A Night on the Town with Student Government. many hours were spent creating the elaborate decorations that would transform the Student Union into a first class casino. The Special Events Committee, under the direction of Senator at targe Renee Morgan, spent countless hours cutting, folding, and taping the black corrugated cardboard that would eventually form the skylines of a city ot night. The skyline was also a prominent feature in the posters which would advertise the event. At the entrance to the Union, the skyline of the city at night” was topped by a giant black top hat suggesting the sophisticated atmosphere created by the theme After passing the entrance tables draped in grey, gamblers of all sorts were treated to a different view than normally experi- enced inside the building. On the roof of the first floor, silver stars shone over the crowd as they anxiously crowded into the bar and other areas of the club”. An occasional silver balloon could be seen floating away from the ballroom” down the hall. In the River Room, a full buf- fet was spread with assorted mun- chies including pizza rolls, chicken wings, and miniature hot dogs wrapped in dough. The spread would prove later to more than serve the large crowd expected later that evening. According to Student Govern- ment. approximately $900 was spent on the food and drinks for the gamblers coming that evening The ball room,” formerly known as the cafeteria, was lav- ishly transformed into a dining room complete with covered tables and candles to set the mood. At the front was an elevated stage that would house a live band later in the evening. Enough space was left at the foot of the stage for those who wanted to dance. Finally, dim lights set the scene that would later be the talk of the school year. Upstairs, meeting room 3 was converted to a large casino room for the card players. With the tables set in an 0. players would be on the outside and the dealers would be on the inside. This would allow observers freedom to roam around the room without disturbing the players and also allow the “house” to protect the large amounts of money” passing back and forth between players. The shape also allowed the house manager to keep tabs on all of the activities going at the tables, in addition to the tables the room was adorned with large playing cards and posters, part of the over $5,003 spent on decorations for the event. “The money was well spent.” said Morgan. I think the decorations really set the mood up. I didn't anticipate the complexity of putting some of the things together though.” Because of the difficulty understanding the instructions of the complex project, the committee members spent much of the day putting the decorations together. Blueprints were provided and each wall of the “city” on the first floor had to be put together by hand. I think all the problems were worth it though.” added Morgan, the scenery was really impressive after we got everything put together right.” In spite of the problems involved with the scenery, all of the fixtures were in place in time for the opening at 8:30. The prize room was the last to be set up. It probably could also be called the most important. The prize room would later be crowded with gamblers anxous to spend their winning from the evening on the various prizes offered.

Prices on prizes were set on a demand basis. According to Morgan, the more desirable a prize, the higher the price. This would make winning the prize even mere appreciable by the gambers. Getting people to come to the event was no problem. Posters on the campus and the aura surrounding the event were all the advertising needed. Nevertheless, during the Student Gov- ernment meeting the week preceeding the event, a trivia contest was held and winners re- ceived complimentary Harold's Club glasses and tickets allowing them free admission to the “club . With the decorations in place, the food on the trays, the dealers shuffling their cards, and band ready to rock, all that was needed were the players. And at the strike of 8:30 pm SPECIAL EVENTS 237 Students allowed to scratch that gamblin' itch during .. They came in droves. They come from the residence hall from the furthest reaches of campus. They came in search of fortune and fame. They came • to Harold’s Club. As students paid their $3 admission price, they received their 1988 Harold's Club frosted glass. $1,000 in Student Government money, and a Har- old's Club key chain that literally became the ticket to the club that allowed students to legally gamble for one night. Some mused could this be Vegas ? No. but it might have been. After entering through the front doors and passing through the star lit hallway, the bar could be found on the right and the gambling started on the left. Students were once again al- lowed to bring their favorite alcoholic beverage to the event. As long as they could supply two forms of identification, students were allowed to store their favorite alcoholic beverage in the snack bar and consume it within the restricted area. Student Government provided mixers and bartenders to help in the bar area. Two uniformed policemen were in attendance to make sure the alcohol was kept in the proper place. For food, the buffet line kept hot morsels for those who had not eaten dinner. Free food and soda was available to be taken into the cafeteria which had been changed into an elegant dining hall, (see story on previous page). complete with a live band on stage. The entertainment for the event was pro- vided by At Large” who rocked the cafeteria. A huge success, the band played top forty music and didn’t stop until after midnight. A break from the music came when comedian Dan Whitman perform- ed at 10:00 in the packed ballroom cafctcria. In the upstairs section. Blackjack 21 was dealt by anxious faculty and administration to students who hoped to beat their teachers just one time. Plac- ing hundreds of thousands of dollars on a throw of the dice, players became the big wheels they had always dreamed of. if only for one night. At times it seemed as if this was the one event that everyone had to at least put in an appearance. The crowds almost seemed to much at times. Even with ten dealers surrounding the room, the standing room only crowd packed the room so that many who de- sired to play could only wait in line. Back downstairs, the game room had also been converted a game room of anoth- er sorts. A popular form of craps. Beat the Dealer , was played at two tobies. Due to student de- mand. Dr. Richard Piper was once again barking for people to place your bets and throw the dice!

With the evening drawing to a close, gamblers realized that although they had a lot of money, it would be worth nothing after passing through the exit. With this in mind, a herd of people swamped the prize room. It was then that the true infla- tion of SG sponsored money hit home. With sweat shirts running at $150,000 and book bags at $160.000. the winnings didn't seem so large anymore. All of the prizes were claimed by the end of the night how- ever. The top prize was a stereo cassette player which sold for $350,000. In the end though, the chance of a life- time was achieved by many as they went through thousands of dollars in just one night. Although there were many students who lost all the money they had. though there were really no losers. As everyone had a good time the event proved to be the success it is every year. Those who missed the club this year however, would have to wait another year before they would get their chance to go Harold’s Club. TOP: Player try their luck at the Black- lack tables in room 3.

SPECIAL EVENTS 239 .. % .Bui w Jl— just an ale party, the traditional... Of the many festivals in Germany, the one that both Germans anil UT students look forward to is the annual celebration of Oktobcrfcst. This tradition originated in 1810 when the mad Prince Ludwig of Bavaria was married to Theresa, the princess of Saxony. During the merryma- king following the marriage, farmers brought the choicest fruits and vegetables from their fall harvests to be enjoyed during the country festival. Families throughout the kingdom consumed the best which the country could produce while raising their voices in celebration of their beloved king's new marriage. As the decades passed. Oktoberfest became one of the noisiest celebrations to be held in Europe. At UT. the annual fall celebration is sponsored by the Student Government Special Events Committee and boasts a number of action packed events.

In addition, the group Atlantic Breeze played top forty favorites during the day. During the breaks between acts. Stu- dent Government provided musical selections chosen by a DJ. In addition to the fun and games, free food was provided to students. Tradi- tional German favorites such as Bratwurst. Knockwurst, and Sauerkraut were available while hot dogs were provided as an alternative food for those not of brave heart. The newly renovated Rathskellar provided the traditional beer at a special discounted price to those of legal age. Student Government coordinated the contests and events which were around the fountain. Greeks and organizations sponsored booths that offered both food to tease the palate and contests to test the skills. A variety of booths were seen, and several of these included a car show by Delta Sigma Pi. the kis- sing jail by the Delta Zcta’s, Struedclfest” by the Commuter organization, and pizza sponsored by Alpha Phi Omega. During the music provided by Barney Barnhart's Oompah Band, the annual Pol- ka contest sponsored by Student Govern- ment was held with the winner receiving a ten dollar gift certificate to the Record Bar. The winner of the Knockwurst eating contest also walked away with a ten dollar certificate to the Record Bar. In addition. Student Government also awarded a $100 prize to the best booth and a $100 prize to the organization that had the highest per- centage of members attending during the events of the day. According to Renee Morgan, Senator at Large, there were over twenty four booths to keep everyone occupied. A po- tential problem arose when the number of tables requested by organizations ex- ceeded the number of tables possessed by the University. Because many of the orga- nizations asked for more than one table, booths were restricted to one to a group. Morgan added “The turnout was great.. . it far exceeded last year's participation. Although many organizations did not 240 SPECIAL EVENTS ®K3®®l«3T Eg-uI receive as many tables as they would have liked, this did not dampen the spirit of the festivities os the large number of booths sponsored by organizations was more than enough to overcome any conceived shortage of requested tables- According to Morgan, there were no organizations who went with- out tables for their booths. The Intrafraternity Council coordinat- ed and hosted their annual Oktoberfest auc- tion. and donated all of the proceeds from the auction to the United Way. Many items were sold at this year's auction including two color pages in the 1988 Mvrocean. The pages were purchased once again by Alpha Chi Omega and can be seen on pages 292 and 293. In ad- dition to the proceeds from the auction, the ten dollar entry fee for each booth was also donated to the United Way. With the weather delivering a bright and beautifully sunny day, the 1987 Oktob- erfest proved to be huge success and memo- rable occasion for everyone.

Marla contin- ued stressing to students that the rights of the victim arc not even recog- nized by the courts, much less protected. Said Hanson, We go so far out of our way to protect the rights of one potentially innocent person. In the meantime, we run over the rights of maybe 20 other people. Is that justice?”. Students listened as Marla explained her view that blaming the victim is the biggest problem ... in our judicial system.” Marla Hanson is doing something about that problem by speaking all over the country to stand up for the rights of victims. The work is far from over however. All of them were convicted. The courts did their job, but I’m still angry ... I’ve forgiven Roth (her landlord who hired the assailants), Bowman, and Norman (her attackers), but not the courts.” The civil rights issue is now public thanks to Julie Cummings, Freshman Senator. It’s a controversial subject (victims rights).” This, with a number attending the event, made it a success. The big turnout surprised me,” added CumminRs, I didn’t think there would be people lining the walls. In addition to victim’s rights, the issue of drug abuse was also tackled. Susan Newman, daughter of actor Paul Newman, arrived on campus on Febru- ary 11 to speak on drug abuse and its glamour. Addressing a capacity crowd in room 3 of the Student Union. New- man conveyed the heartwarming story of her brother who died of cocaine over- dose and addiction. I’m here because my brother’s dead because of drugs.” she began. “If you make the wrong decision about drugs, it can kill you ... It’s important that you start to recognize what your priorities are.” SPEAKERS With the recent deaths of notables such as John Belushi and Richard Pryor’s brush with cocaine. Newman said There’s still a lot of denial going on in this town.” She hopes however, that Hollywood is finally gradually beginning to sec the down side of drugs. Point- ing out the grim toll of celebrity deaths attrib- uted to drugs in some form, students reviewed notable deaths such as popular athletes Lcn Bias and Don Rogers. David Kennedy (son of late Senator Robert Kennedy), Ronald Rob- erts (son of evangelist Oral Roberts). Sid Vi- cious (British Rockstar who killed girlfriend). and other music talents like Keith Moon of the Who, Jimi Hendrix. Janis Joplin, and Judy Gar- land. Under the Reagan administration, public outrage over the drug abuse problem has rea- ched a new crest. President Reagan has said “The time has come to give notice that individ- ual drug use is threatening the health and safety of all our citizens. Following this state- ment. a multi million dollar campaign was launched to eradicate drug crops in Bolivia through US military forces and the Bolivian government. In addition, mandatory drug tes- ting for all federal employees was instituted to show the commitment of the government on the drug problem. And what of these new measures? New- man said It won’t last ... We’ve seen false starts before. Newman still proclaims that the media is an important establishment for goals early in one's life. Contending that many of the pro- drug messages in today’s films are almost sub- liminal. she still feels they are very important. Movies should eliminate one liners. she says. For example, there's a throwaway line in A Chorus Line about taking Valium, and a scene in About Last Night where a woman has a disappointment and wants to smoke a joint. Such scenes flash by but they legitimize it.” Newman feels that equally important is not the movies themselves, but the example the celebrities set in their real lives. Even if the star gets arrested and goes to jail for a little while, said Newman, the young people see him later in a red Farrari. with the gorgeous girl on his arm. still making movies, still in the limelight. So the message gets across - How bad could it be? It’s hip to do drugs.” Hopefully the students got the message, but their parents won’t. As Newman said. . .. our family got the call that all parents dread - my brother was dead. With the average kid seeing 21.500 hours with 16.000 violent acts before high school graduation. Newman has dedicat- ed her life to influence the media to show drugs, booze, and tobacco in a realistic way. We hope to reverse the climate of acceptance in the entertainment field.” And for UT students. Newman's presence was a perfect finale for Drug Awareness Week”, highlighting the dangers of drug experimentation any time. Above- Drue Activist Susan Newman.

With the conclusion of another year, we can look back at a few of the events that made the year so spe- cial. Here, placed into order,” are just a few of the many events that encouraged the growth of both the spirit and the mind, which is really what the college experience is all about. Gasparilla - the festival where Tampa celebrates a legend in the city. Here the com- munity, not just the University, takes to the streets to celebrate the ancient invasion by pi- rates. For one day. the rules arc relaxed and the atmosphere is charged with the electricity of a city in celebration. Homecoming - the tradition which cele- brates the return to the place called home. In our case for the last four years, the University has become our second home. The stylish cele- bration is carefully planned and includes all the trimmings to make the event one that is special. Holiday Reception - celebrating the spirit of Christmas, the gathering of both students and staff brings new meaning to the holiday spirit. Gifts and Santa are provided to bring the Christmas spirit out of even the worst Scrooge among us. Harold’s Club • perhaps the most looked forward to event of the year. (At least in the Executive Suite!) With students allowed the opportunity to gamble legally for the night and bring booze into a night club atmosphere, the event is always a success. Live bands, a come- dian. and prizes all build the excitement that makes Harold’s Club one of the most memora- ble events of the year. Oktoberfest - the festival in the same month of the name that brings students to celebrates the traditional celebration held in Germany. Booths featuring contests, food, and promotion of organizations lead students to learning what the celebration is all about. Speakers - those people who visited the campus during the year to bring important issues to the minds of students. Speakers in- cluded Marla Hanson, who spoke on the rights of victims and gave the example of how she felt she had lost her rights during a trial of those who attacked her. Finally, Susan Newman came to inform students to remember that we all have choices and must make the decision as to how we will live our lives. With these events in mind, we can place our lives and values for our futures “into or- der .

Alex 147, 197 Editor’s Note- It becomes all too easy for one to look over the past events of the year and understand the true meaning of the events that have transpired. While attempting to place things into order, chaos periodically erupted in the time spent putting the events of the year together. And although it became sec- ond nature to once again blame everything on the Bear, the real culprits eventually stepped forward to take responsibility for their actions. I arrived at UT. and to the testimony of a beloved UT professor, was very frightened and alone. The prospects of a college whose student population was the largest that I had ever attended was a terrible feeling. The fear soon passed and I made some of the best friends I will ever have. I am thankful that I had the opportunity to attend The University of Tampa and am grateful to all those who made the last half of a decade such a memorable one. Contrary to popular belief. I am graduating on time, although I may come back for a fourth degree in Quantatativc Analysis. I'm sure Prof. Richards is looking forward to that. Special thank you to Caroline Collier, your help has proved invaluable -1 hope that you took my screaming as a positive influence. Thank you Arthur, for keeping me from spending too much money, although I stiil think we need cable in the office for MTV. Special thanks to Grant Donaldson, who can't begin to know how much I appreciate his guidance and help over the last year, and Elba Lopez who gave me her ear during my final year of “budget wars’’. I think the dust may be starting to settle. Finally, thanks to Cindy St. Law- rence. who always left her machine on so I could talk to her during my deadline crisis, (I think it's the computer’s fault!). - Ralph L.
