Did    You    Know? 

Stuff  That  You  May 

Not  Have  Known 

About  UMD 


Written  by  Kristen  Regan 


Upon  arrival  to  the  University  it 
is  impossible  not  to  notice  that  UMD  is 
not  your  typical  New  England  school. 
Due  to  its  unusual  planar  design, 
(courtesy  of  architect  Paul  Rudolf)  some 
people  describe  the  school  as  a 
spaceship,  or  an  airport.  UMD  is  unique, 
not  only  for  its  architecture  but  also  for 
its  programs  and  its  people. 

We  are  one  of  six  schools  in  the 
nation  that  offer  textile  science  as  a 
major.  Students  can  learn  to  create  and 
dye  material  used  for  commercial 
products. 

How  many  schools  have 
buildings  that  all  look  uniform  and 
distinguish  each  by  numbers?  This 
would  suggest  that  the  students 
themselves  were  of  some  unity,  all 
relating  in  one  way  or  another.  Enter 
Group  Six,  the  art  building,  and  then  go 
to  Dion,  the  computer  science/nursing 
building,  or  Group  One,  the  liberal  arts 
building,  and  its  like  entering  a  time 
warp.  The  open-air  community  that 
exists  in  Group  Six,  with  student  artwork 
adorning  the  walls  does  not  exist  in  Dion. 
Instead,  you  find  tiled  floors  and  white 
plastic  benches  lining  the  hallways.  In 
Group  One,  the  bustling  sounds  of 


conversation  fill  the  air  as  you  pass 
through  the  low  ceiling  hallways. 

Other  schools  do  not  have  a 
Corsair  as  their  school  mascot.  Many 
students  first  coming  to  the  University 
do  not  even  realize  what  a  Corsair  is  and 
are  surprised  to  find  out  that  Corsair  is 
another  name  for  a  pirate.  Dr.  Joeseph 
Leo  Driscoll,  the  founding  figure  of  the 
Bradford  Durfee  New  Bedford  Institute 
of  Technology,  helped  merge  the 
school  to  become  the  Southeastern 
Massachusetts  Technological  Institute 
(SMTI).  Later  the  SMTI  achieved 
University  status  becoming  Southeastern 
Massachusetts  University,  (SMU). 
Driscoll  flew  a  plane  in  World  War  II, 
which  was  named  the  Corsair,  and  he 
deemed  the  title  appropriate  for  the 
University.  After  many  debates,  the 
students,  and  athletics  adopted  the 
mascot  because  of  its  regional  reference. 
Since  we  are  near  the  water,  it  seemed 
fitting  for  the  school. 

So  the  architecture  and  the 
history  are  a  little  funky.  You  have  to 
admit  though;  doesn't  the  appeal  of  the 
school  grow  on  you  after  awhile?  These 
things  are  what  make  us  proud  to  have 
gone  to  a  school  with  so  much  character.

Competitive 

Edge 

Students  Working  Hard  on 
Their  Academic  Skills 


Written  by  Amanda  Kline 

There's  so  much  more  to 
learning  than  just  sitting  in  a  lecture  hall 
and  taking  notes.  Hands  on  learning  is 
vital  to  becoming  successful  in  the 
"real  world."  Academics  are  strongly 
supported  and  well  structured  to  provide 
the  most  for  each  and  every  student. 

Every  day  thousands  of  students 
make  their  way  to  campus  and  are 
exposed  to  interactive  learning.  All  five 
colleges  emphasize  this  by  exposing 
students  to  "real"  world  situations. 

The  Nursing  students  work  in 
the  mock  hospital  on  campus  to  learn 
procedures,  and  eventually  work  their 
way  up  to  their  clinical  where  they 
observe  doctors  and  nurses,  and  practice 
procedures  at  many  local  hospitals. 

The  Charlton  College  of 
Business  sends  many  students  out  into 
the  workforce.  Students  participate  in 
internships  at  well-known  companies 
such  as  Putnam  Investments.  Other 
students  choose  to  take  advantage  of  the 
many  international  trips  sponsored  by  the 
business  school. 

Students  in  the  College  of 
Visual  and  Performing  Arts  work  with 
their  hands  daily.  Whether  it's  playing 
the  trumpet,  drawing,  throwing  clay  or 
designing  on  the  computer,  art  students 
are  constantly  developing  their  skills 
doing  hands  on  work.  Art  students 
prepare  for  shows  where  they  can  show 
off  their  work,  and  get  some  well- 
earned  exposure. 

The  College  of  Engineering  also 
has  many  opportunities  available  to 


develop  skills.  Students  can  participate 
in  the  co-op  program  and  gain  working 
experience  while  on  the  job. 

The  College  of  Arts  and 
Sciences  offer  the  most  variety  of  majors 
and  many  interactive  learning  tools. 
Foreign  language  students  can  study 
abroad  to  strengthen  communication 
skills,  and  education  students  student 
teach  their  senior  year. 

Science  majors  work  in  the  labs 
doing  experiments  or  may  work  with  a 
professor  doing  research.  English  majors 
can  write  for  many  of  the  on-campus 
publications  or  can  obtain  an  internship 
to  sharpen  their  writing,  and  social 
science  majors  do  case  studies  and 
experiments. 

The  many  resources  the  campus 
has  to  offer  strengthen  academics. 
Resources  are  available  to  help  students 
obtain  access  to  hands  on  learning.  CITS 
provides  many  computer  labs  and 
computer  support  for  students.  There  are 
lecture  series,  international  films, 
tutoring  centers,  the  SHARE  center,  the 
Academic  Advising  Center,  the  Career 
Resource  Center,  the  Counseling  Center, 
the  Foreign  Language  Lab,  and  most 
importantly  the  library. 

Students  at  UMD  obtain  the 
experience  and  knowledge  necessary  to 
be  confident  when  heading  out  into  the 
working  world.  All  of  the  colleges  help 
to  emphasize  this,  so  graduates  have  a 
competitive  edge  for  their  future  careers.

Student    Life 

The  Complete  College 

Experience 


Written  by  Amanda  Kline  and  Sarah  Carriere 


The  complete  college  ex- 
perience comes  from  more  than  the 
classroom.  Student  life  is  probably 
the  most  influential  part  of  the 
college  experience.  With  only  about 
5500  students  at  UMASS,  a  close 
community  atmosphere  is  inevitable. 

There  is  always  something 
going  on  for  the  students  to  participate 
in.  Whether  you  enjoy  organized 
activities  or  a  relaxing  evening  in  the 
Java  Phi  Java  you  can  always  find 
someone  with  similar  interests  nearby. 

The  range  of  activities  is  as 
diverse  as  our  student  body.  There  are 
academic,  religious,  environmental, 
social,  and  political  organizations  to 
suite  the  desires  of  any  student. 

II  you  would  rather  do 
something  less  organized  you  can 
always  catch  a  game  of  frisbee  outside 
in  the  Quad,  or  chat  with  some  friends 
in  the  commuter  cafe. 


The  weekends  on  campus  are 
a  little  more  laid  back  with  a  lot  less 
structure.  Sleeping  in  and  a  late 
breakfast  are  a  typical  start  to  the 
weekend.  In  the  fall  you  can  always 
catch  an  afternoon  football  game  or  an 
SAB  sponsored  event. 

After  a  stressful  week,  many 
students  choose  to  attend  the  many 
RATTS  held  throughout  the  year. 
These  evenings,  filled  with  music  and 
socializing  in  the  Campus  Center,  are 
always  guaranteed  to  be  a  well- 
deserved  break  from  schoolwork. 

If  on  campus  activities  are  not 
your  thing,  there  are  plenty  of  things 
to  do  and  see  in  a  short  driving 
distance.  From  Newport  to  Cinema  140 
there  are  endless  possibilities  for  a  few 
hours  of  entertainment.  Getting  off 
campus  provides  an  alternative 
atmosphere  from  the  everyday  campus 
surroundings.

game. To  the  right,  Cyndi  Pommett,  relaxes  in  her  blow-

Much  to  be  Proud  Of 


UMass  Dartmouth  Athletics 


Written  by  Kristen  Regan 


UMass  Dartmouth  has 
much  to  be  proud  of,  not  only  do  we 
have  some  of  the  finest  educational 
facilities  in  New  England,  we  also 
have  some  of  the  best  sports  teams 
in  the  region. 

This  past  year  many  teams 
made  it  to  the  playoffs,  including 
hockey  and  baseball.  From  there  the 
baseball  team  moved  onto  regional 
competition,  and  the  hockey  team 
went  to  their  semifinals.  One  team 
that  did  not  go  back  to  win  their 
Division  Title  was  the  cheerleading 
team,  who  had  to  juggle  coaches  this 
past  season. 

The  University  hosted  the 
New  England  Regional  Cross- 
country Championships  in 
November,  where  the  UMD  teams 
did  well  against  their  competitors. 

With  every  year,  there  are 
many  teams  that  travel  for  their 
training  trip.  This  past  year  the 


women's  lacrosse  and  baseball  team 
spent  spring  training  in  Clairmount, 
California,  while  the  men's  lacrosse 
team  went  to  Disney  World,  and  the 
Softball  team  went  to  Fort  Myers, 
Florida.  The  diving  teams  went  to 
Texas,  and  some  of  the  other  teams 
took  a  more  exotic  route.  The  men's 
and  women's  swim  teams  went  to 
Acapulco,  Mexico,  and  the  men's 
and  women's  basketball  teams  were 
invited  to  Lisbon,  Portugal. 

With  the  beginning  of  the 
spring  semester,  a  new  gym  addition 
was  opened  to  students  and  faculty. 
Now  students  are  able  to  work  out 
in  a  brand  new  weight  and  cardio 
room,  with  all  new  equipment. 
Adjoining  the  weight  and  cardio 
room  is  a  studio  that  offered  a  variety 
of  aerobics  classes.  Everything  from 
cardio  kickboxing  to  dancercize  to 
yoga  was  offered.

Q 


Administration 


Written  by  Kristen  Regan 

If  its  help  that  you  need,  the 
Administration  Building  (Admin)  is  a  good  way 
to  start.  Neatly  tucked  away  in  the  alcoves  of 
Admin  are  resourceful  departments  and 
administrators  who  offer  advice  for  a  variety  of 
student  problems.  Everyone  is  familiar  with  the 
'"One  Stop,"  in  the  lobby  of  the  first  floor, 
notorious  for  its  long  lines.  This  is  where  students 
go  to  pay  tuition,  get  their  schedules,  and  financial 
aid  information.  Traveling  up  to  the  second  and 
third  floors,  you  can  find  an  array  of  resourceful 
people  in  the  Dean's  office,  or  in  the  Student 
Affairs  office.  With  Administration's  assistance, 
the  University  is  able  to  achieve  excellence 
through  its  economic  development  and  global 
competitiveness.

Congratulations  from  the  President 


Dear  Class  of  2000, 

Few  of  our  fellow  human  beings  have  been  afforded  the  opportunity  for  a  formal  higher 
education.  And  fewer  of  those  who  have  had  this  opportunity  have  recognized  its  value  and 
seized  it. 

There  is  reason  for  gratitude  today  to  all  who  have  made  this  priceless  chance  possible 
for  you:  your  family  for  support  of  you,  the  faculty  and  administration  of  this  University,  and 
the  general  community  which  contributes  to  this  institution  by  its  tax  dollars. 

I  would  hope  for  you  a  life  of  continuous  learning  and  high  purpose  in  whatever  en- 
deavor you  choose. 


William  M.  Bulger

Best  Wishes  From  the  Chancellor 


Dear  Class  of  2000: 

Graduation  is  a  special  occasion  and  an  important  milestone  in  your  life.  As  one  door  closes  on  your  college 
career,  a  wonderful  world  of  great  opportunities  and  challenges  opens  up  ahead  of  you.  I  am  confident  that  you  each 
have  the  skills  and  the  knowledge  to  make  a  significant  difference  in  that  world  which  is  counting  on  your  contribu- 
tions. UMass  Dartmouth  is  proud  to  have  been  a  part  of  your  education  and  preparation.  Congratulations  to  each  of 
you  on  your  achievements. 

You  are  the  first  graduating  class  of  the  millenium.  You  truly  step  into  a  new  era.  As  each  century  turns,  we 
often  look  back  at  what  we  have  achieved  as  a  people  and  look  ahead  to  the  challenges  we  face  for  the  future.  We 
always  want  to  be  doing  better.  The  21st  century  will  most  definitely  be  different  from  the  20th.  The  world  economy 
is  growing.  Change  is  rapid.  Technology  is  transforming  almost  every  aspect  of  our  lives;  and  through  enhanced 
media  and  communication  networks,  a  global  perspective  is  at  our  fingertips.  The  world  you  enter  is  prosperous,  fast- 
paced,  connected,  and  incredibly  diverse.  You  will  have  many  opportunities  to  shape  and  transform  it. 

We  wish  that  we  could  also  say  that  in  this  new  century  all  conflict  is  quelled,  or  warfare,  prejudice,  and  poverty 
are  ended;  but  they  are  still  with  us,  and  they  still  threaten  the  fabric  of  our  democratic  society.  Along  with  great  opportu- 
nities, you  will  have  an  equally  great  responsibility  to  make  your  world  a  truly  better  place.  By  living  honestly,  with 
integrity,  compassion  for  others,  commitment  to  valuing  and  honoring  diversity  and  civility,  and  using  your  intellectual 
talents,  your  education  will  not  just  be  for  making  a  living,  but  for  having  a  truly  meaningful  life. 

Many  people  have  contributed  to  your  success.  They  have  encouraged  and  supported  you.  Share  your 
success  with  them  and  always  be  willing  to  express  your  appreciation  to  others. 

It  has  been  a  privilege  for  us  to  be  part  of  your  learning.  Remember  learning  is  lifelong  and  always  rewarding 
and  exciting.  Your  University  welcomes  you  now  as  proud  alumni  and  hopes  you  will  always  stay  involved  with  and 
committed  to  your  alma  mater. 


Most  sincerely, 


F.  MacCormack 
Chancellor

New    Chancellors    New    Hopes 

An  Interview  with  Dr.  MacCormack 


Written  by  Kristen  Regan 

Involved  in  many  public  service 
roles,  including  the  New  Bedford 
Aquarium  and  fundraising  for  the  Sisters 
of  Notre  Dame,  Dr.  Jean  F. 
MacCormack,  also  a  strong  supporter  of 
UMass  athletics,  has  a  busy  life  both  on 
and  off-campus. 

As  the  University's  new  interim 
chancellor,  she  services  the  University 
in  a  true  leadership  role.  "I  see  the 
chancellor  as  providing  a  service,  you 
have  a  whole  bunch  of  people,  providing 
services  to  students,"  MacCormack  said. 
"Major  things  are  academic,  student 


affairs,  administration,  and  finally 
making  sure  everyone  is  on  the  same 
page,  functioning  as  a  team." 

In  her  first  three  months  at 
UMass  Dartmouth,  she's  gotten  a  feel 
for  what  people  think  is  good,  what  they 
wish  was  different,  and  what  they  feel 
are  the  weaknesses  of  this  University. 
She's  made  changes  by  creating  an 
opportunity  for  discussion. 
MacCormack  wants  to  get  people  to  put 
their  hopes  and  aspirations  into  making 
the  college  experience  more  enjoyable. 

"One  thing  students  tell  me  is 


what  works  and  what  doesn't  work," 
says  MacCormack.  And  understanding 
that  students  are  here  for  only  a  short 
time,  the  new  chancellor  acknowledges 
that,  "They  want  to  be  proud  of  the 
institution  that  they  went  to,  so  they 
want  it  to  get  better  and  better."  What 
"They  [students]  really  don't  want  to 
change  is  the  personal  contact  with  the 
faculty  and  the  class  size,  and  their 
ability  always  to  call  on  faculty  to  get 
involved  with  them  if  they  don't 
understand  something." 

The  size  of  the  student  body, 


16 


/administration/ 


and  personal  interactions  with  their 
friends  "are  important  parts  of  what 
UMass  Dartmouth  is,"  she  continued. 
Students  here  don't  want  a  UMass 
Amherst  rather,  they  like  the  quality  of 
the  faculty,  the  really  good  education, 
and  want  internships  to  prepare  them  for 
future  jobs. 

Right  now  a  major  focus  of 
UMD  is  on  safety.  "There  are  some 
things  that  we  could  do  different  in 
terms  of  guest  policies,"  MacCormack 
said.  Security  in  the  dormitories  and 
lighting  on  campus  are  amongst  the 
important  issues,  right  now  the 
University  is  doing  a  study  of  sites  for 
additional  dorms. 

As  UMass  Boston's  former 
Deputy  Chancellor,  and  the  Vice 


Chancellor  for  Administration, 
MacCormack  says  she  "Had  all  of  the 
administrators  and  financial 
responsibilities,"  including  accounting, 
personnel  and  the  police.  As  the  Vice 
Chancellor  of  Admin-istration,  she  was 
responsible  for  all  non-academic 
services.  As  the  Deputy  Chancellor  "I 
had  some  additional  things  that  crossed 
all  of  the  boundaries,  like  professional 
development  for  the  faculty  and  staff, 
[and]  planning  activities,"  Mac- 
Cormack said. 

MacCormack  earned  her 
bachelor' s  degree  in  literature  and  fine 
arts  from  Emmanuel  College,  and  re- 
ceived her  master's  and  doctorate  in 
education  from  UMass  Amherst.  She 
currently  teaches  a  course,  Financial 


Management  in  Higher  Education,  at 
UMass  Boston. 

As  for  the  millennium,  "It's  a 
time  when  people  look  back  and  say 
"what  have  we  accomplished  and  what 
do  we  need  to  do  in  the  future?" 

The  world  is  going  to  be  much 
smaller  by  means  of  communication, 
so  people  have  to  have  a  global  per- 
spective, she  says.  Students  have  to 
really  "Grapple  the  issues  of  diversity 
whether  it  be  race,  age,  sex,  because 
the  world  we're  going  to  live  in  will 
be  more  diverse." 

MacCormack  is  optimistic  about 
UMD's  future.  UMD,  in  turn,  is  opti- 
mistic that  its  new  chancellor  will  dis- 
play the  leadership  necessary  to  tran- 
scend even  her  own  expectations.

Exchange    of 
Knowledge 


Written  by  Kristen  Regan 

The  beach,  a  famous  opera  house, 
and  Aborigine  people.  These  are  some  of 
things  that  Mary  Elizabeth  Butler,  the 
Student  Activities  Coordinator,  experienced 
on  her  two-week  exchange  to  Sydney, 
Australia. 

"I  was  a  delegate  for  the  United 
States  team  that  was  sent  over  to  Sydney, 
Australia,"  said  Mary  Elizabeth  Butler,  the 
Student  Activities  Coordinator. 

"We  ended  up  going  to  the  Naspa 
International  Exchange,"  Butler  said.  Naspa 
is  a  professional  organization  in  which  every 
two  years  an  exchange  occurs  where 
Australian  delegates  come  to  the  U.S.  and 
the  U.S.  delegates  go  to  Australia.  Naspa  is 
represented  internationally.  "I  applied  two 
years  previously  to  be  selected,"  Butler  said. 
There  were  different  country  options,  Butler 
happened  to  get  her  first  pick  —Sydney, 
Australia. 

She  and  other  U.S.  delegates  did  the 
exchange  with  six  different  Australian 
Universities.  The  Naspa  exchange  coincided 
with  the  Australian  New  Zealand  Student 
Services  Association  (ANZSSA)  con- 
ference, which  brought  in  delegates  from 
around  the  world.  "We  had  a  nice  global 
focus  both  in  the  educational  sessions  and 
in  the  informal  pieces  where  we  were  able 
to  get  to  know  one  another,"  Butler  said. 

The  program  lasted  for  the  first  two 
weeks  of  December,  with  a  tour  of  the 
country  as  an  added  option  that  Butler  took 
full  advantage  of. 

They  covered  six  Australian 
Universities,  visiting  two  daily,  and  met  with 
the  top  hierarchy  of  each  school.  An 
Australian  chancellor  is  very  much  a 
politically  appointed  position.  Butler  got  to 
know  "in  a  global  sense  what  they  were 
interested  in  from  us  as  well.  We  were  able 


to  exchange  on  many  different  topics." 

Global  issues  involving  what 
Universities  do  across  the  country  to  deal 
with  the  challenges  of  the  new  century  were 
discussed.  The  older  student  population, 
distance  student  education  (education  by 
Internet),  and  the  different  set-ups  in  student 
affairs  (Australia  follows  the  United 
Kingdom  model),  were  also  brought  up. 

"We  were  able  to  find  out  what 
works  for  them  and  adapt  it. . .  and  bring  it 
back  to  the  States,"  Butler  said.  Areas  of 
disability  and  access  for  all  were  major 
ideas.  "They've  got  some  really  good 
policies  and  literature  that  to  some  degree 
we  could  adapt  in  this  country." 

Australian  educational  technology 
involves  an  Open  Technology  Education 
Network  (OTEN).  It  caters  to  the  virtual 
school.  Instructors  teach  via  the  Web,  but 
the  issues  of  Student  Services  and 
individual  student  needs  are  a  concern. 

A  great  difference  from  the  U.S.  is 
that  there  are  no  affiliations  with  alumni. 
"They  don't  have  the  traditions  that  we  have 
going  into  the  University  levels,"  Butler 
said.  Only  a  small  percentage  of  the 
population  goes  to  the  Universities. 

A  national  education  program  once 
existed  in  Australia,  but  its  not  so  much  any 
more.  Education  is  the  political  hot  topic. 
Australia  "wants  to  give  education  and 
access  to  all,"  Butler  said.  But  the  questions 
of  how  it  and  make  it  affordable  are  the 
prime  issues. 

Australian's  "are  wonderful,  warm, 
and  friendly  people."  Butler  said.  She 
would  love  to  go  back  and  see  more  of  the 
country.  "It  was  a  wonderful  experience  for 
meto  bring  UMass  Dartmouth  to  an 
international  front."

Doing 

Something 

He    Loves 


Jim  Griffith 


Written  by  Kristen  Regan 


Chancellor  Professor  Jim  Griffith 
loves  his  job.  Being  a  professor  of  laboratory 
science  allows  him  to  use  science  for  medicine 
and  figuring  out  problems.  "That's  the  cool 
thing  about  it,"  Griffith  said.  For  twenty-five 
years  Griffith  has  served  the  UMD  community 
doing  a  job  that  he  loves. 

Griffith  teaches  microbiology  to 
juniors  and  seniors.  His  specialty  is  infectious 
diseases  where  he  deals  with  topics  ranging 
from  Aids  to  the  common  cold.  The  hottest 
thing  in  the  field  is  emerging  infectious 
diseases.  He  said,  "as  humans  move  into  areas 
where  they  have  not  traditionally  been, 
problems  are  caused."  An  example  of  this 
would  be  the  African  Ebola  virus,  which  was 
discovered  when  tribes  moved  into  an 
unsettled  land  infected  with  the  virus.  Griffith 
said,  "Ebola  virus  is  a  viral  disease  isolated  in 
Ebola  River". 

Aside  from  being  the  chairperson  of 
the  medical  lab  science  department,  Griffith 
also  plays  a  political  role  at  the  University. 
He  is  the  Executive  Assistant  to  the 
Chancellor,  for  the  Dartmouth  Campus.  He 
was  asked  to  fill  the  position  years  ago, 
because  of  his  political  experience  in  health 
legislature.  Griffith  has  written  several  bills 
that  have  become  laws  in  the  State  of  Rhode 


Island  and  in  the  US  Congress.  "What  I  do 
for  the  campus  is  much  more  general,"  he 
said.  He  acts  as  a  liaison  to  the  state 
legislature,  US  Congress  and  local  govern- 
ment, for  federal  funding  and  programs. 

So  what  exactly  can  one  do  with 
medical  lab  science?  It  turns  out  that  there 
are  many  areas  that  graduates  can  choose 
from.  Most  start  out  by  getting  jobs  working 
in  hospital  laboratories,  Griffith  explained. 
From  there  they  branch  out  into  jobs  in  public 
health,  pharmaceutical  research  or  the 
business  side  of  medicine. 

When  Griffith  described  the  health 
industry  he  said  "it's  huge,  health  in  the  US 
is  a  $1.2  trillion  a  year  industry".  It  is  one  of 
the  largest  industries,  if  not  the  largest 
industry  in  America.  Because  medical  lab 
science  is  such  a  broad  field,  it  makes  it  a 
difficult  major.  Graduates  are  demanded  to 
have  a  background  in  many  different  areas 
of  science,  including  chemistry,  physiology, 
microbiology,  and  physics.  Because  of  the 
many  areas  students  must  study,  Griffith 
believes  medical  lab  science  is  one  of  the 
three  or  four  most  difficult  majors  at  the 
University.

Dean    John 
Laughton 

Living  His  Passion 


Written  by  Sarah  Cariere 

The  Dean  of  the  College  of  Visual  and  Performing  Arts 
(CVPA),  Dr.  John  Laughton,  arrived  here  at  UMass  Dartmouth  in 
the  fall  of  1998.  Dean  Laughton,  a  renowned  clarinet  player  who 
played  at  Carnegie  Hall,  Brazil,  and  China  has  high  hopes  for  the 
CVPA. 

He  has  been  playing  the  clarinet  for  nearly  45  years,  since 
the  age  of  ten.  There  isn't  a  day  which  music  isn't  incorporated 
into  his  schedule.  The  skills  he  has  gained  from  music  allows  for 
creative  thinking.  "Music  is  pretty  much  my  life,"  Laughton  said. 

Dr.  Laughton  received  his  undergraduate  degree  in  Mu- 
sic from  the  University  of  Iowa,  and  his  Master's  degree  in  Music 
from  the  Catholic  University  of  America,  during  the  Vietnam  War. 
Later  he  returned  to  the  University  of  Iowa  to  earn  his  Doctoral 
degree  in  Musical  Arts. 

One  of  Laughton' s  greatest  achievements  is  that  he  has 
twice  won  the  Fulbright  Fellowship.  Fulbright  is  an  awards  pro- 
gram in  the  United  States  and  the  United  Kingdom  that  selects 
outstanding  candidates  with  leadership  qualities  in  their  profes- 
sional field. 

He  shares  his  musical  talent  through  community  service. 
He  has  played  for  groups  that  are  focused  on  raising  money  for 
charities  for  people  with  AIDS  and  he  has  preformed  at  AIDS 
healing  retreats  and  services. 

One  experience  that  stands  out  the  most  in  his  mind  hap- 
pened in  1966,  when  he  was  nineteen  years  old  and  attending  the 
University  of  Iowa.  He  and  the  University  band  were  chosen  to 
represent  the  United  States  in  a  cultural  exchange  in  Europe  and  in 
the  former  Soviet  Union.  This  experience  made  him  realize  the 
common  bond  he  shared  with  people  all  over  the  world,  and  that 
even  through  their  language  barrier  they  could  communicate. 

Laughton  is  working  to  develop  issues  of  cultural  diver- 
sity by  in  cooperating  new  technologies,  and  to  develop  interdis- 
ciplinary programs.  He  wishes  to,  "establish  the  college  as  a  pri- 
mary cultural  organization  of  Southeastern  Massachusetts."  Dean 
Laughton  hopes  to  do  this  through  outreach  programs  and  events 
that  extend  to  the  New  Bedford  area.  His  plan  is  to  start  a  summer 
institute  to  incorporate  the  UMass  campus  with  the  community. 
Through  cooperative  programs  such  as  these,  Laughton  hopes  to 
extend  cultural  awareness  to  the  surrounding  communities. 

The  best  part  of  Dean  Laughton' s  job  as  Dean  is,  "the 
opportunity  to  bring  people  together  to  give  them  a  chance  to  make 
their  dreams  become  a  reality."  His  hope  is  that  all  students  will 
have  a  chance  to  fine-tune  the  one  thing  they  love  and  develop 
their  skills  to  do  it  really  well.

Dedication 

Students  Show 
Appreciation  for  Dr. 
Jim  Sears  Campus 
Landscape  Projects 

Written  by  Dino  Di  Pasquale 

Anyone  who  has  ever  been  in  one  of  Dr.  James  Sears' 
classes  knows  that  he  is  very  dedicated  both  to  teaching  and 
learning  more  about  biology.  Since  arriving  at  UMD  as  a  bota- 
nist in  1974,  Dr.  Sears  has  brought  his  enthusiasm  for  and  ap- 
preciation of  nature  and  gardening  to  the  classroom.  A  big  part 
of  his  lesson  plan  is  showing  students  the  beauty  of  their  natu- 
ral surroundings.  What  better  way  to  reward  such  dedication 
than  a  yearbook  dedication? 

Dr.  Sears  comes  to  us  from  California  where  he  attended 
Paulo  Alto  High  School.  He  received  a  degree  from  the  Uni- 
versity of  Oregon  where  he  studied  biology.  From  there,  he 
earned  his  Ph.D.  in  botany  from  UMass  Amhearst.  After  study- 
ing at  marine  biology  labs  in  Woods  Hole,  Greenland,  and 
Martha's  Vineyard,  Dr.  Sears  began  his  teaching  career  at 
Hampshire  College,  in  Amhearst. 

When  he  came  to  UMD,  Dr.  Sears  taught  (and  still 
teaches)  terrestrial  plant  biology  and  aquatic  botany,  both  his 
area  of  expertise.  But  what  he  really  wanted  to  do  was  teach  a 
class  in  landscaping  and  gardening.  "I  grew  up  with  a  garden- 
ing family,"  says  Sears.  "All  my  relatives  had  these  magnifi- 
cent gardens.  That's  what  cultivated  my  interest  in 
landscaping." 

What  further  changed  his  view  of  landscaping  was 
meeting  philosophy  professor  Donna  Huse,  his  future  wife. 
"Donna  changed  the  way  I  saw  landscaping.  I  started  to  see  its 
effects  socially,  aesthetically,  and  philosophically."  Together 
with  their  colleague  Peter  London  (of  art  education),  they  de- 
veloped Biology  103-04:  Landscaping  and  Gardening.  The 
class,  created  out  of  their  mutual  love  of  the  subject,  is  a  great 
learning  tool  that  simultaneously  benefits  all  students.  "This 
hands-on  class  is  practical  for  students  of  all  majors  who  will 
one  day  have  homes  and  yards  of  their  own.  The  work  we've 
done  on  campus  was  greatly  needed  and  greatly  appreciated." 

What  is  Dr.  Sears  planning  for  the  future?  "We  sent  in 
a  proposal  for  the  President's  Reserve  Fund  for  Campus  Beau- 
tification  and  received  fifty-two  thousand  dollars."  With  this 
money,  he  plans  to  have  an  alley  of  cherry  trees  along  the  path 
between  Cedar  Dell  and  Group  Six.  He  also  intends  to  have  a 
nursery  on  campus,  landscape  the  new  gym,  and  plant  more 
trees  through  out  campus.

After  26  years  of  dedication  to  the 
UMD  biology  department,  Dr. 
Sears  still  has  the  enthusiasim  to 
finally  reach  his  dream,  teaching  a 
class  in  landscaping  and 
gardening.  In  this  class  students 
recieve  valuable  experience  that 
will  help  then  in  future  years  when 
they  have  a  home  of  their  own.

Lab    Rats 

Students  Taking 

Advantage  of  the  Arts 

and  Sciences  Labs

Written  by  Trisha  Noble 

In  the  technologically  advancing 
world,  UMass  Dartmouth  is  trying  to  keep  up 
with  the  ever  changing  and  growing  computer 
labs.  Nearly  every  building  on  campus  has  at 
least  one  computer  lab,  if  not  more. 

One  can  find  Mac  Labs  and  IBM  labs, 
as  well  as  labs  specified  for  English  students, 
Math  Majors,  Engineers,  Biologists,  De- 
signers, and  labs  for  general  student  use. 
Nearly  every  student,  at  one  time  or  another, 
has  had  to  use  the  labs. 

Cynthia  Francis,  a  biology  major, 
finds  the  labs  helpful  because,  "They  have  a 
scanner,  and  working  printers  which  I  can  use. 
Furthermore,  the  biology  labs  have  specific 
programs  for  the  major.  Everyone  also  has 
Internet  and  e-mail  access  with  all  of  the  labs." 

What  would  be  more  useful,  she  adds, 
would  be  to  add  a  computer  lab  in  Cedar  Dell, 
similar  to  what's  been  done  in  the  Residence 
Halls.  Kristen  Greene,  a  math  major,  agrees. 
"Cedar  Dell  needs  a  computer  lab."  Another 
improvement  she  adds  would  be  in  the  math 
lab,  located  in  Group  I,  room  218.  "There  are 
never  enough  dry  erase  markers  and  the  board 
is  never  clean,  which  makes  it  difficult  for 
lectures.  Also,  the  times  that  it  is  open  for 
general  student  use  are  inconvenient." 

However,  Greene  gives  the  math  lab 
an  overall  rating  of  "great." 

Sieve  Kimball,  a  student  worker  for 
CITS,  has  a  different  view  of  the  labs. 
Although  he  admits  that  the  computer  clusters 
give  students  an  accessible  source  of 
information,  the  labs  are  not  accessible  enough 


/academic/ 


to  the  students  and  not  as  up  to  date  as  they 
could  or  should  be. 

"Most  of  the  computers  are  too  old; 
they  are  always  freezing  and  ceasing 
functions.  The  newest  computers  have  been 
put  into  labs  that  only  a  small  amount  of 
students  can  use.  The  school  needs  to  allocate 
more  funding  to  keep  the  labs  up  to  par." 

The  availability  of  the  computer  labs 
was  a  problem  that  many  students  spoke  of. 
Scott  Wooldridge,  a  senior  engineering 
major,  talks  about  how  hard  it  is  to  use  the 
senior  engineering  lab.  "Seniors  have  to  use 
this  lab  for  their  projects,  but  it  has  very 
inconvenient  hours,  which  makes  it  very  hard 
to  get  work  done  on  time.  Occasionally,  the 
grad  student  who  runs  it  decides  to  leave 
early,  so  the  seniors  have  no  choice  but  to 
leave,  even  if  they're  in  the  middle  of  a 
project." 

Another  common  use  of  the 
computer  labs  is  for  English  classes.  Dorothy 
Ryan,  instructor  of  English  101,  wishes  she 
could  use  the  labs  for  every  class.  "The  labs 
have  become  the  pencil  and  paper  for  English 
classes,"  she  explains.  "I  can  talk  about 
something,  and  everyone  can  be  working  on 
it  at  the  same  time.  Also,  if  I  help  a  particular 
student,  the  others  aren't  just  staring  into 
space,  doing  nothing." 

All  the  interviewed  students  found 
the  labs  helpful  in  a  variety  of  ways,  although 
there  was  always  room  for  improvement  in 
the  computer  facilities.

Writing    and 
Reading    Center 

Students  Helping 
Students 


Written  by  Kristen  Regan 


Many  students  turn  to  the  tutors 
of  the  Writing  and  Reading  Center 
(WRC)  for  help  on  their  papers.  The 
WRC  is  the  most  frequented  of  the  five 
tutoring  centers  on  campus. 

Elizabeth  Hooper,  senior,  is  a 
tutor  at  the  WRC.  She  enjoys  her  job 
there,  "I  do  it  for  a  lot  of  reasons,  I  think 
it  is  a  fun  job  to  have."  To  Hooper  it  is 
more  "mentally  stimulating"  then  some 
other  jobs  offered  to  students  on 
campus. 

There  are  about  twenty  tutors  at 
the  center.  They  provide  many  services 
they  can  edit  resumes  and  thesis  papers, 
help  with  study  skills  in  literature,  and 
act  as  a  conversation  partner  for 
English  as  a  Second  Language  students. 
Lots  of  intentional  students  and  English 
101  and  102  students  take  advantage 
of  these  services.  Hooper  works  ten 
hours  a  week  at  the  Center  during  the 
semester  and  always  has  someone  to 
tutor. 

Hooper  has  found  that  her  own 
writing  has  improved  as  a  result  of 
editing  others  work.  "You  learn,  it  is 
really  easy  to  be  objective,"  she  said. 
Stacey  Brum,  sophomore,  agrees. 
Brum  gets  to  "meet  new  people"  and 
make  new  friends.  When  editing  a 
student's  paper,  "I  try  to  make  sure  they 


have  a  point,"  said  Brum.  She  focuses 
on  the  content,  making  sure  the  papers 
are  organized  and  coherent. 

Hooper  admits  that  her  pet 
peeve  is  a  student  who  comes  in  with 
a  ten  page  paper  that  needs  a  lot  of 
work  and  it  is  an  hour  before  it  is  due. 
In  situations  like  those,  she  gets  as  far 
into  the  paper  as  she  possibly  can. 

Prior  to  tutoring  the  tutors  have 
to  go  through  special  training  sessions 
in  which  they  observe  other  tutors  for 
a  total  of  seven  to  eight  one  hour 
sessions.  They  also  have  their  own 
written  work  critiqued.  "You  learn  by 
doing,"  Hooper  said.  Both  Brum  and 
Hooper  found  observing  the  most 
valuable  part  of  the  training. 

Brum  has  found  that  working 
in  the  WRC  has  "lead  into  other 
opportunities,"  she  has  some  private 
tutoring  jobs  that  she  got  through  the 
working  at  the  WRC. 

Amy  Parelman,  the  Director  of 
the  WRC,  believes  the  Center's 
strength  is  the  flexibility  to  adjust  to 
the  needs  of  students."  Over  one 
thousand  different  students  used  the 
center  last  year,  proving  what  a 
valuable  resource  it  is  to  the 
University.

Interning 

Students  Investing  in 
Their  Future 


Written  by  Amanda  Kline 


Twenty-five  business  majors  began 
their  participation  in  a  one-of-a-kind  internship 
opportunity  developed  by  Putnam  Investments 
and  the  business  college  on  Feb  15.  The  Career 
Resource  Center,  Professor  Larry  Logan  and 
Putnam  employees  together  formed  an 
opportunity  that  was  almost  too  good  to  be 
true  to  the  many  business  majors  looking  for 
an  internship. 

Nate  Goulet,  a  senior  finance  major 
said,  "It  is  a  good  opportunity  for  under- 
graduates to  get  a  foot  in  the  door  and  gain 
experience  in  a  business  environment  before 
graduation."  Diane  Jordan,  another  finance 
major,  had  the  same  feelings.  "Putnam 
Investments  is  the  fourth  largest  mutual  fund 
company  in  the  world  and  it  is  a  great 
opportunity  for  me  to  gain  working  experience 
in  the  finance  industry." 

Students  submitted  applications  and 
resumes,  and  from  there,  they  were  offered  an 
interview  with  the  Putnam  representatives. 
Students  from  all  areas  of  the  college  of 
business  were  welcome  to  apply.  "We  were 
pleasantly  surprised  with  the  fifty-plus 
applicants  that  applied",  said  Tami  Clinton- 
Supervisor,  Shareholder  Services.  "We  were 
impressed  with  all  of  the  students  and  found  it 
difficult  during  the  selection  process.  We  are 
extremely  pleased  with  the  success  of  the 
interns  chosen." 


The  goal  of  the  internship  is  to  train 
the  twenty-five  students  during  the  spring 
semester  to  become  agility  trainee/interns. 
When  the  training  is  complete,  students  will 
hold  full-time  summer  positions  at  Putnam 
as  customer  service  representatives  in 
Shareholder  Services. 

Of  the  twenty-five  students  chosen  there 
were  mostly  juniors  and  seniors  with  the 
exception  of  two  sophomores.  Mitzi  Keating, 
an  accounting  major,  was  one  of  the 
sophomores  chosen.  "It  just  seemed  like  a 
great  opportunity  and  there  may  be  something 
in  the  future  for  sophomore's.  So  I  decided 
to  give  it  a  shot,  and  I  was  surprised  when  I 
got  the  position  because  during  the  interview 
I  was  constantly  reminded  that  it  was  a 
position  mainly  for  juniors  and  seniors,"  he 
said.  The  majors  represented  are  finance, 
marketing,  management,  business  info 
systems  and  accounting.  Some  students  felt 
it  was  mostly  finance  related,  but  still  applied. 

"The  internship  has  exceeded  any 
expectations  that  we  had.  We  are  really 
excited  about  the  potential  the  UMass 
Dartmouth  interns  have  shown,"  said  Adrian 
Goneau,  the  project  leader.  This  is  the  first 
time  that  Putnam  and  UMass  are  doing 
anything  like  this,  and  hope  that  it  is  a  big 
success.  Putnam  and  the  University  would 
like  to  see  this  continue  in  the  future.

Marketing 
Majors 

IBA  Europe  Trip 


Written  by  Kristen  Regan 

A  group  of  23  students  from  the  Charlton 
College  of  Business  were  lucky  enough  to 
participate  in  a  17  day  International  Business 
Association  (IBA)  abroad.  The  students 
traveled  to  Brussels,  Madrid,  London,  and 
Paris.  There  they  did  field  research  and  went 
over  as  marketing  consultants  for  local 
businesses,  Eric  Langone,  a  senior  marketing 
major,  explained. 

The  group  of  23  students  were  divided 
up  into  three  smaller  groups  based  on  their 
assigned  research.  Jenifer  Krol,  a  junior 
marketing  major,  was  part  of  the  group  that 
helped  promote  traveling  and  tourism  for  the 
Bristol  County  Convention  and  Visitor's 
Bureau.  Holly  Mello,  senior  marketing  major, 
was  also  part  of  the  tourism  group.  This  group 
met  with  a  couple  of  different  public  relations 
firms  and  "found  out  what  they  did  to  promote 
southeastern  Massachusetts,"  Mello  said.  The 
group  also  got  information  about  the  "typical 
traveler"  from  each  country. 

Jessica  Fernades,  senior  marketing, 
was   part   of  the   Masters   of  Business 


Administration  (MBA)  group.  We  "got 
information  from  them  so  we  can  improve 
our  own  programs,"  Fernades  said.  She 
helped  to  promote  the  MBA  overseas,  by 
going  to  the  American  Embassy  in  each 
country,  three  different  colleges  in  each 
country,  and  the  Fulbright  Association. 

A  third  group  did  solely  exports,  and 
worked  with  the  local  retailer  Shepard 
Clothing.  Their  job  was  to  look  for  possible 
companies  where  Shepard  Clothing,  who 
make  men's  suits,  could  export  their  products. 
Nick  Tsolov,  a  senior  said  that  they  "had 
surveys  we  had  to  fill  out."  Spain  was  the 
only  country  of  the  four  that  was  truly 
interested  in  working  with  Shepard  Clothing. 

The  IBA  program  helps  to  develop 
major  trade  abroad  with  local  businesses,  and 
gives  students  a  "real  world"  experience, 
allowing  them  to  network,  and  build 
connections  for  their  future  careers.

The    Impulse 
Program 

One  Students  Story 


Written  by  Kristen  Regan 

For  those  who  may  not  know,  this  year 
marked  the  second  of  the  engineering  college's 
IMPULSE  program.  IMPULSE,  or  the 
Integrated  Math  Physics  Undergraduate 
Laboratory  Science  engineering  program,  is 
now  required  for  all  first  year  engineering 
majors,  excluding  civil  engineering.  It 
provides  a  foundation  for  first  year  students, 
exposing  them  to  the  different  aspects  of 
engineering. 

Matt  Brum,  a  first  year  mechanical 
engineering  student,  explained  the  IMPULSE 
program  as  being  "integrated,  working 
together,"  although  to  him  "it  doesn't  seem  to 
work  out  that  way."  While  many  students 
enjoyed  the  program,  Brum  had  mixed 
feelings.  The  IMPULSE  classes  were  held  in 
labs  in  Group  II,  students  were  grouped 
together  in  clusters  of  4,  and  assigned  to  teams. 
They  were  "in  the  same  teams  for  math, 
science,  physics  and  engineering,"  Brum  said. 
They  couldn't  pick  their  teams,  and  to  Brum, 
"some  kids  slide  through."  He  feels  that  the 
program  has  potential.  Many  students  enjoyed 
the  program,  but  there  were  others  who  had 
mixed  feelings  about  it.  "There  are  great 
teachers,  but  the  set  up  needs  work,  you  can't 
do  lectures  in  computer  rooms,"  Brum  said. 

During  there  first  semester,  all  of  the 
students  classes  incorporated  engineering, 
including  English,  which  explained 
engineering  ethics,  and  used  engineering 


books.  One  drawback  of  the  program  is  the 
fact  that  the  IMPULSE  students  are  not  often 
exposed  to  other  students  of  other  majors. 
They  are  mainly  with  other  IMPULSE 
students  during  their  entire  first  semester  of 
classes.  Brum  found  this  to  be  true  for 
himself,  he  felt  that  the  IMPULSE  program 
restricted  him  in  this  aspect  and  that  the  "more 
exposure  you  have  [to  other  majors]  the  more 
you  find  yourself."  This  can  be  true  of 
students  who  are  unsure  if  they  want  to  pursue 
engineering. 

Brum  now  has  a  co-op  job,  working 
for  Genzyme  Surgical  Products,  which 
involves  "very  precise,  high  tolerance 
engineering,"  he  said.  Co-op  is  one  of  the 
opportunities  that  engineering  majors  have  to 
expose  themselves  to  their  profession. 
IMPULSE  taught  Brum  some  of  the 
mechanical  desktop,  technical  drawing  skills, 
and  vocabulary  necessary  for  his  job. 

Brum  would  have  preferred  to  work 
independent  of  his  IMPULSE  group,  "if 
you're  going  to  fail,  fail  on  your  own,  if 
you're  going  to  pass,  pass  on  your  own," 
Brum  said.  TO  him  not  everyone  seemed  to 
pull  his  or  her  own  weight.  "The  program 
has  a  lot  of  potential,  the  money  is  there,  the 
technology  and  resources  are  there..."  he 
finished,  "there's  a  basis  there,  and  the 
foundation  must  positively  be  built  upon."

Getting    Ahead 

Students  Take 
Advantage  of  Co-op 


Written  by  Amanda  Kline 

One  way  to  get  ahead  of  the  game 
in  the  engineering  field  is  to  participate  in 
the  Co-op  program  offered  through  the 
College  of  Engineering.  The  College  of 
Engineering,  consisting  of  physics,  textile 
science,  computer  science  and  mech- 
anical, civil,  or  electrical  engineering  has 
worked  very  hard  to  develop  this  program 
to  meet  all  the  needs  a  student  may  have. 

The  Co-op  program  is  designed 
to  be  completed  in  the  course  of  five  years. 
Students  involved  in  the  program  have  an 
option  of  four  different  tracks  that  they  can 
choose,  alternating  a  semester  in  the  class 
and  a  semester  at  work.  Many  students 
find  themselves  taking  a  few  summer 
classes  too. 

Jason  Tetreault,  became 
interested  in  the  program  when  he 
received  a  letter  from  the  school  saying 
that  he  was  qualified.  He  attended  the 
meeting  and  has  been  involved  in  the 
program  for  two  years  now.  "I  think  that 
the  co-op  program  is  an  incredible 
experience.  Every  student  should  spend  at 
least  one  semester  or  summer  working  in 
a  co-op  like  job,"  said  Tetreault.  For  Jason 
the  co-op  program  has  been  a  very  positive 
experience. 

Erin  Fahey,  a  computer  science 
major,  found  the  co-op  program  very 
enticing  to  her.  "I  was  able  to  determine 
which  area  of  the  field  I  enjoyed  and 
wanted  to  pursue  a  career  in,  and  it  also 
helped  me  decide  on  a  topic  for  my  honors 
thesis." 


The  Co-op  program  is  designed  to 
be  much  more  than  classroom  learning. 
Tetreault  believes  that  the  most  valuable 
things  that  he  learned  from  his  experience 
were  not  technical  at  all.  "I  learned  a  lot 
about  how  businesses  operate  and  what  the 
typical  work  day  is  all  about.  I  was  also 
able  to  establish  a  number  of  connections 
with  people  that  I  will  be  able  to  use  as 
references  in  the  future,"  said  Tetreault. 
For  Fahey,  "it  really  added  a  lot  to  the 
classroom  experience.  I  was  able  to  see 
things  I  learned  in  class  come  into  action." 
Tetreault  is  currently  working  at  Compaq 
Computer  Corporation  testing  high  end 
tape  backup  devices  for  secondary  storage. 
Not  only  is  he  learning  to  apply  the  skills 
that  he  learned  in  the  classroom,  but  he  is 
guaranteed  a  job  after  graduation  with 
Compaq.  'To  me  it  is  a  great  feeling  to 
know  that  I  am  guaranteed  a  job  once  I 
graduate,"  added  Tetreault.  Fahey  is 
working  at  Quadrant  software  in  Taunton, 
doing  quality  assurance  testing  on 
software.  "I  now  know  what  to  expect  in 
the  workplace  and  from  an  entry-level 
job,"  added  Fahey.  This  is  just  one  of  the 
many  benefits  Fahey  has  experience  from 
the  co-op  program. 

Many  other  students  like  Jason 
and  Erin  are  gaining  experience,  finding 
what  they  like,  and  making  money  while 
they  do  so.  This  is  a  opportunity  few 
engineering  students  can  afford  to  pass  up.

A    demanding    Major 

Nursing  Students  Gain  Valuable 
Experience  Through  Hands-on 


Written  by  Jamie  Lightfoot 


Training 


UMass  Dartmouth  is  one  of  the  most 
prestigious  nursing  programs  in  the  state.  It 
continuously  earns  top  accreditations,  and  has 
an  excellent  reputation  in  the  region  and  state. 
The  National  League  of  Nursing  Ac-creditation 
Commission  said  this  of  the  school's  program: 


Nursing  students  receive  hands-on  training  in  classes  called  clinicals.  These 
students  go  to  nearby  hostipals  and  work  with  really  patients.

"A  strength  of  the  College  is  the  service 
activities  of  faculty,  administrators,  and  students 
at  the  University  and  in  the  community.  The 
faculty  and  student  serve  in  leadership  positions 
and  members  of  numerous  committees  at  the 
University  as  well  as  at  the  College.  Even  with 
the  heavy  academic  and  workload  demands  on 
the  students,  they  report  serving  on  committees 
at  the  University  of  Massachusetts  Dartmouth 
and  in  the  community." 

The  program,  which  was  started  over 
30  years  ago,  is  one  of  the  most  challenging 
programs  at  the  school.  Regardless,  it  remains 
a  popular  major. 


Lauren  Mosca,  a  senior  nursing  major, 
says  "The  program  is  very  challenging,  but  the 
challenge  makes  finishing  all  the  more 
rewarding."  The  program,  which  prides  itself 
in  the  fact  that  it  provides  an  "excellent  nursing 
education,  meaningful  service  and  challenging 
scholarship  opportunities  to  diverse 
programs,"  was  started  over  thirty 
years  ago.  The  hard  work  of  the 
students,  combined  with  the 
dedication  of  the  faculty,  which  is 
made  up  of  distinguished 
researchers,  project  workers,  and 
authors,  has  led  to  the  success  of 
the  program. 

John  Scannell,  a  senior 
nursing  major,  has  also  been 
successful  in  the  program.  He  said 
of  the  program,  "I  feel  like  I've 
gotten  so  much  out  of  it.  It's  a  lot 
of  work,  but  there  are  a  lot  of  good 
teachers  to  help  you  through  it." 

In  addition  to  the  quality  of 
teachers,  the  number  of  teachers  has 
helped  the  program.  The  low 
student-faculty  ratio  enhances  the 
attention  given  to  the  individual 
students. 
In  addition  to  regular  classes,  nursing 
students  receive  hands-on  training  in  clinicals, 
which  they  participate  in.  Scannell  also  said, 
"We  work  with  the  community.  We  got  to 
nearby  hospitals  in  New  Bedford  and  Fall  River, 
and  also  work  in  the  communities  of  Bourne 
and  Falmouth  for  home  visits.  At  the  end  of  the 
year  we  have  to  do  a  project  which  benefits  the 
community.  We  have  to  do  an  educational 
project,  where  we  are  basically  teaching.  For 
example,  some  people  do  like  a  Visiting  Nurse 
Association.  They  go  in  and  they  teach  them 
how  to  better  handle  clients  or  how  to  get  more 
clients.  It's  a  lot  of  hard  work."

Few    to    Come    By 

Male  Nursing  Students 


Written  by  Kristen  Regan 


Male  nursing  student,  Chris 
Brown  said  "as  far  as  I  know  there  are  six 
guys  in  the  nursing  program.  At  first  I 
thought,  this  is  pretty  cool,  being  with 
women  all  day."  But  soon  after  he  began 
to  feel  the  opposite.  "I  felt  out  of  place," 
Brown  said,  "When  I  had  to  talk  about 
personal  things,  I  had  no  one  to  turn  to." 
There  are  definitely  advantages  to  being 
one  of  the  few  males."  I  got  great  insight 
on  how  women  talk  about  their  personal 
lives  and  guys." 

Brown  works  at  St.  Vincent's 
hospital,  picking  up  medicine,  and 
cleaning  patients  "I  can't  give  meds."  he 
said.  He  basically  does  the  work  of  an 
orderly.  "My  major  was  biology,"  Brown 
said.  He  decided  to  switch  to  nursing  a 
year  later.  "I  liked  working  with  people, 
but  once  I  started  nursing  I  felt  the 
opposite." 

"People's  lives  are  in  your  hands 
literally  everyday,"  he  said.  "I  respect 
nurses  so  much  now."  Both  nursing  and 
biology  are  constantly  changing.  There  are 
always  new  procedures  introduced  for 
nursing  majors.  Biology  is  always 
changing  its  literature.  "The  student  has 
to  constantly  stay  on  top  of  their  game," 
Brown  said. 

Brown  works  anywhere  between 
16-24  hours  a  week  working  in  the 
hospital.  He  deals  with  mostly  respiratory 


patients,  including  COPD  (chronic 
obstruction  pulmonary  disease)  patients, 
bronchitis,  pneumonia,  and  lots  of  cancer 
patients.  For  him,  working  in  the  hospital 
can  be  depressing,  but  it's  also  a  very 
satisfying  job  too.  For  example,  a  few  days 
ago  a  man  came  in  on  his  feet,  whereas  a 
few  weeks  before  he  was  bed  ridden.  "It 
was  the  nurses  who  got  him  back  on  his 
feet,"  Brown  said. 

"The  doctors  lay  the  blueprints 
[for  a  patient],  but  its  the  nurses  who  are 
working  24/7,  they  do  the  tangible  stuff," 
he  said,  "I  respect  nurses  more  than 
doctors."  Many  times  the  nurse  is 
sandwiched  between  families,  "the 
rambunctious  uncle  who  blames  the 
nurses,"  and  their  patients.  Sometimes 
families  talk  down  to  the  nurses.  Families 
and  themselves  can  verbally  and 
emotionally  abuse  nursing. 

If  a  medical  error  occurs  and  a 
patient  is  given  the  wrong  thing  the  results 
could  be  very  serious.  "If  they  give  too 
much  or  too  little  of  the  medicines,  then 
huge  weight  on  their  shoulders.  Nursing 
is  very  demanding,"  Brown  said.  It 
requires  constant  work,  and  "a  lot  of 
reading  and  hands  on  experience.  There 
are  so  many  problems  patients  can  have, 
and  there  are  constantly  new  ones."  Brown 
believes  that  nursing  is  one  of  the  most 
demanding  majors  at  the  University.

Festival    of 
Animation 

Art  Students  Showcase  their 
Projects  at  the  Annual  Electronic 

Imaging  Show 


Written  by  Pam  Albert 

Senior  Electronic  Imaging  (EI)  major, 
Steve  Medeiros,  summed  up  EI  in  one  sen- 
tence: "A  lot  of  hard  work,  a  lot  of  time,  a  lot 
of  patience,  and  a  lot  of  tweaking."  Medeiros 
was  one  of  about  fifty  student  artists  to  be 
featured  in  the  popular  Electronic  Imaging 
festival  of  1999. 

Chancellor  Dr.  Jean  MacCormack, 
opened  the  night  and  expressed  how  she  was 
excited  about  viewing  all  of  the  student's 
work  in  the  show.  Dr.  John  Laughton,  Dean 
of  the  College  of  Visual  and  Performing  Arts 
(CVPA),  introduced  the  host  of  the  evening, 
Professor  Harvey  Goldman,  who  imagined 
the  idea  of  the  show. 

There  was  much  time  and  effort  that 
went  into  the  two-hour  show.  All  of  the 
projects  demanded  preparation  and  intensive 
work  in  the  Group  VI  Imaging  Lab.  The  EI 
festival,  which  is  held  every  year,  not  only 
showcases  the  artists  to  other  students  and 
friends,  but  also  to  potential  employers.  The 
hard  work  and  dedication  to  the  classes  will 
definitely  pay  off  when  an  employer  sees  the 
talent  and  fresh  ideas  of  a  student  and  hires 
him  or  her. 

In  the  Imaging  Lab,  students  create  de- 
signs and  short  animation  skits  using  soft- 
ware such  as  Photoshop  5.0  and  Director  7.0. 
The  show  included  work  from  all  of  the  EI 
classes:  from  the  sophomore  students  who 
focus  on  still  images  to  the  graduate  students. 

The  senior  students  showcased  their 
CD_ROM  projects,  which  were  not  fully 
completed.  They  did  a  large  research  project 
on  a  deceased  entertainer  of  their  choice.  The 


projects  included  timelines,  photographs,  lyr- 
ics, and  many  other  interesting  things. 

The  students  in  EI  III  modeled  3D  ani- 
mations that  included  watering  a  flower  in  a 
not-so-obvious  way.  Many  projects  included 
a  chain  of  events  that  eventually  tipped  a  wa- 
tering can  as  an  unusual  flower  quickly  grew 
out  of  the  flowerpot.  The  process  of  anima- 
tion involves  constructing  the  elements  and 
forms,  then  adding  surface  and  texture  designs 
to  make  the  animation  three-dimensional. 

To  prepare  for  the  event,  students  have 
access  to  the  imaging  lab  in  Group  6  to  work 
on  their  projects  in  their  spare  time.  Medeiros 
said,  "the  longest  time  that  I  have  spent  in  the 
lab...  was  nine  a.m.  to  two  a.m."  Many  of  the 
students  had  their  own  computers  to  complete 
the  work  at  home.  Those  without  spent  many 
hours  in  the  lab  perfecting  their  animations. 

Professor  Goldman  said  that  in  his 
classes,  "students  learn  not  only  how  to  learn, 
but  how  to  enjoy  learning."  Beginning  stu- 
dents emphasized  metaphors.  They  has  de- 
signed collages  based  on  topics  in  the  news 
or  in  sports.  Time  is  also  used  as  a  composi- 
tional element  as  well  as  adding  various  texts. 
They  also  focused  on  natural  movement  and 
the  relationship  of  words  such  as  "water"  and 
the  movement  they  imply.  The  work  is  a  "re- 
lationship of  text,  motion,  pattern,  rhythm, 
and  transformation"  says  Goldman. 

All  of  the  students'  time  and  hard  work 
paid  off  for  a  very  successful  show.  It  was 
well  received  and  made  for  a  successful  rep- 
resentation of  the  CVPA  EI  Department,  of 
which  the  college  should  be  proud.

CVPA  Seniors  Sculpture 
and  Graphic  Design 

Shows 


Written  by  Jessica  Andrews 

The  College  of  Visual  and  Performing 
Arts  (CVPA)  2000  Senior  Sculpture 
Exhibition  was  an  outdoor  exhibit.  Every 
year  the  senior  sculpture  students  make  a 
piece,  or  series  of  pieces,  and  put  them 
out  on  display  in  back  of  Group  six,  the 
CVPA  building.  The  pieces  are  always 
interesting  and  sometimes  interactive.  The 
seniors  use  many  different  types  of 
materials,  but,  because  it  is  an  outdoor 
show,  they  have  to  take  into  consideration 
wind,  water,  sun,  and  human  and  animal 
contact,  and  make  their  piece  sturdy 
enough  to  withstand  its  environment. 

As  you  walked  around  campus 
you  would  almost  inevitably  run  into  some 
of  the  pieces.  Most  of  them  were  out 
behind  group  six,  but  some  managed  to 
find  their  way  into  the  quad.  Those  who 
wanted  to  see  it  all  had  to  go  find  them, 


but  there  were  a  few  you  couldn't  miss. 
For  example,  this  year  a  giant  interactive 
silver  box  embellished  the  quad  for  about 
a  month,  an  orange  block  remained  over 
on  the  path  by  the  library  and  the  little 
colorful  posts  were  placed  all  over  the 
quad. 

The  2000  Senior  Graphic  Design  Show 
was  held  at  the  New  Bedford  Art  Museum. 
Every  senior  was  required  to  show  his  or 
her  thesis  project,  which  was  the  product 
of  the  whole  spring  semester  in  one  final 
piece.  There  was  extra  space 
available  in  case  they  wanted  to  show  more 
pieces.  Senior  Graphic  Design  major 
Kevin  Cimo  said,  "the  show  was  a  success, 
totally  planned  by  the  students  of  the  senior 
design  class.  There  was  a  great  turnout 
for  the  opening."

Wealth 


In  Student  Life 


Written  by  Kristen  Regan 


With  all  that  goes  on  in  the  classroom, 
life  outside  of  class  can  sometimes  be  just  as 
chaotic  as  a  reading  300  pages  and  writing  a 
twenty  page  term  paper.  Many  students  work  to| 
put  themselves  through  school,  study  all  the  time, 
and  on  Thursday  nights  decide  to  let  lojgg e  for  a 
while,  either  by  partying  ,wi*h  their  friends  in 
Cedar  Dell,  or  off  campus  locafft^ns.  Others  may 
take  in  a  movie  at  Cinema  .140,  or  play  pflpl. 
Some  may  go  away*Tor  the  weekend,  to  visit 
friends  or  }ust  to  get  away  from  their 
responsibilities  as  students.  Whatever  the  case, 
UMass  Dartmouth  is  as  rich  in  its  student  life 
activities  as  it  is  in  its  academic  programs.

Everyone    Enjoys 
a    Welcome    Back: 

UMD  Has  Welcome  Back  Week 


Written  by  Kristen  Regan 

An  excitement  rose  from  those  who 
helped  out  during  freshman  move-in  day.  Many 
parents  were  refreshingly  surprised  when  the 
Residents  Orientation  Committee  (ROC) 


Despite  the  poor  weather,  people  gathered  anticipating  the  nights  activities 


volunteers  swarmed  their  cars  and  mini- vans  with 
eager  hands  whisking  each  student's  belongings 
to  their  assigned  rooms. 

Sophomore  Beth  Schleyer,  a  ROC 
volunteer,  noticed  the  surprise  on  the  parents' 
faces  as  students  came  forth  to  help.  Diana  Parisi, 
ROC  sophomore,  also  noticed  the  enthused 
parents  who  appreciated  ROC's  help.  Both  girls 
had  fun,  but  admitted  that  it  was  tiring  work 
lifting  heavy  boxes,  bags,  and  crates  all  day  long. 

Although  students  were  excited,  some 
parents  did  not  share  the  same  excitement.  Judy 
Mayo,  mother  of  Steve  Mayo  felt  "bittersweet" 
about  her  sons  moving  in.  Mayo  commented  that 
the  "first  day  of  kindergarten  is  exactly  the  same 


as  the  first  day  of  college,"  at  both  times  you  hate 
to  see  them  go.  Barbara  Rebeiro  agreed  with  Mayo, 
her  son  Peter  is  Steve's  roommate.  The  boys  have 
known  each  other  since  nursery  school. 

On  the  contrast, 
upper  classman  moving  in 
day  was  very  tame, 
physically  and  emotion- 
ally. People  just  followed 
the  same  routine. 

Throughout  the 

week  there  was  evening 

entertainment  provided  by 

the  Student  Activities 

Board      (SAB).      This 

included  hypnotist  Jim 

Spinnato.  Students  from 

the     Residence    Halls 

packed  the  auditorium  to 

see  an  "hour  and  a  half  of 

watching    your    friend 

perform  memorable  antics 

under  hypnosis,"  said 

Mary  Elizabeth  Butler, 

the  Student  Activities 

Coordinator. 

The  2nd  Annual  Community  dinner  under 

the  tent  was  equally  successful.  It  was  a  dinner 

with  the  reggae  band  One  People.  This  feast  was 

complete  with  roast  pig  and  island  flavored  menu. 

Towards  the  weeks  closing,  Montana  from 

MTV's  Real  World:  Boston  came  to  talk  to 

students  about  the  serious  effects  that  sexually 

transmitted  diseases  have  on  people.  She 

encouraged  safe  sex,  and  regular  testing  for  those 

who  are  sexually  active. 

The  week  was  a  success  for  all  of  those 
who  took  part.  It  was  a  wonderful  introduction  to 
the  year  and  invoked  a  sense  of  school  pride  in 
many  students.

New    Ileal    Plan 

Marriott's  Removal  of  Equivalency 
Leads  to  Student  Dissatisfaction 


l 


Written  by  Steve  Whitford 

This  year,  there  were  many  changes 
in  the  meal  plan,  leading  to  long  lines  into 
the  Resident's  Cafe,  and  of  the  use  of  the  meal 
plan  at  the  Commuter  Cafe.  This  is  an  all  too 
common  occurrence  this  semester.  Marriott, 
the  organization  that  runs  the  food  program 
at  UMD,  decided  to 
do  away  with 
Equivalency  this 
year.  Equivalency  is 
the  process  by  which 
students  can  use  meal 
plans  as  cash  at  the 
Commuter  Cafe,  the 
North  Alcove  and  the 
Sunset  Room. 

Due  largely 
to  the  influx  of  new 
students,  Marriott  felt 
that  they  would 
simply  not  be  able  to 
handle  the  amount  of

card  swiped  to  get  dinner  at  the  residence  cafe.  Residents 
were  told  in  the  beginning  of  the  year  that  they  could  no 
longer  eat  in  the  Commuter  Cafe. 


up  on  changing  the  meal  plan  to  add  guest 
passes.  That  was  pretty  much  the  goal  and 
that's  all  we  really  wanted,  "  said  Drew.  In 
order  to  arrive  at  a  new  system  RHC  called 
several  other  colleges  to  see  what  they  used 
for  food  plans. 

One  possible 
option,  which  was 
almost  implemented, 
was  the  use  of  a 
"block  system", 
using  a  set  number 
for  each  semester, 
rather  than  a  week-to- 
week  plan.  This  was 
declined  because  of 
the  possibility  of 
some  students  having 
no  meals  left  in  the 
last  month  of  school. 
The  University  Food 
Committee         co- 


students  in  the  commuter  cafe.  They  felt  that     chaired  by  RHC  and  Student  Senate  wanted 


if  they  forced  residents  to  eat  at  the  Residence 
Cafe  by  taking  away  the  equivalency,  they 
would  be  able  to  better  accommodate  them 
in  the  larger  Residence  Cafeteria.. 

"It's  a  trade-off,"  junior  Kenny  Drew, 
president  of  Residence  Hall  Congress  said. 
Residents  loose  the  equivalency,  but  gain 


the  guest  meals,  and  a  larger  snack  allowance. 
This  was  given  by  Marriott,  but  the  price  is 
apparent  now.  "We  thought  this  was  what 
the  students  wanted,  it  really  kind  of 
backfired,"  Drew  regretted. 

This  new  plan  was  not  set  in  stone. 
Although  it  could  not  be  changed  in  the  fall, 


guest  meals,  and  an  additional  $120  snack     the  spring  semester's  options  are  still 


allowance,  with  no  increase  in  prices.  To 
determine  the  best  course  of  action  to  take, 
RHC  sent  around  surveys  last  year. 

These  surveys  asked  questions 
ranging  from  what  was  the  best  food  item 
served  to  what  students  wanted  to  improve. 
Out  of  462  students  who  filled  out  the  survey, 
about  450  wanted  to  change  the  meal  plan 
system  in  some  way.  "We  were  really  hung 


available.  "If  the  students  make  a  big  enough 
fuss,  we  can  change  it  back  next  semester." 
RHC  has  sent  around  another  survey,  and 
students  were  encouraged  to  express  their 
opinion.  Equivalency  can  be  restored  for 
lunch  and  dinner,  but  because  of  the  sheer 
volume  of  students  eating  between  8-10  a.m., 
breakfast  will  probably  remain  in  the 
Residence  Cafeteria.

Not    Your    Average 

Job 


Residence  Assistants 

Written  by  Amanda  Kline 


Being  an  RA  may  be  one  of  the  most  an  RA  is  considered  "floating."  This  means  that 
rewarding  jobs  a  student  could  have.  "It  tests  your  they  have  to  remain  near  their  phone  in  case  an 
personal  limits  and  forces  you  to  interact  with  emergency  comes  up.  Two  RA's  are  basically  in 
people  you  may  not  have  interacted  with  on  your      charge  during  the  day  on  any  given  weekend  day. 

Aside  from  the 
typical  RA  duties  of 
running  fire  alarms, 
assisting  in  lockouts, 
C.A.S.H.  inspections  and 
mediating  each  RA  is 
required  to  hold  3 
programs  per  semester  and 
help  out  with 

3    community    service 
projects.  They  also  have  to 
maintain  an  overall  GPA 
of  2.25  and  set  a  positive 
example  among  other 
students.  "Being  an  RA  is 
like  living  in  a  fishbowl. 
Everyone  knows  every- 
thing you  do  whether  it  be 
good  or  bad.  People  tend 
to   remember   the   bad 
things,"  said  Thompson. 
The  positive  aspects 
of  the  job  overpower  the  negative  parts  by  far. 
RA's  receive  free  housing,  a  small  amount  of 
money  towards  tuition,  about  $1000.00  a  year  for 
their  snack  allowance,  and  a  free  microfridge  for 
their  room.  According  to  Katie,  the  best  part  of 
being  an  RA  is  "all  the  friends  that  you  make.  You 
meet  about  eighty  new  people  each  year  and 
become  very  close  with  the  other  RA's."  The  RA's 
share  similar  experiences  and  stories  and  find  that 
they  need  one  another  to  get  through  it  all.

it  has  its  perks,  but  it  also  has  its  disadvantages. 
The  job  is  very  demanding  due  to  its 
unavoidable  24  hour  a  day,  7  day  a  week  work 
schedule.  Each  RA  is  on  duty  between  10  and 
1 5  nights  a  month,  pulling  1 2  hour  shifts  on  those 
nights.  Even  though  the  RA's  have  nights  they 
are  not  on  duty  there  are  still  emergencies  that 
come  up  and  have  to  be  tended  too.  Even 
weekends  are  not  work-free.  Each  weekend  day,

Homecoming  came  early 
this  year.  The  annual  festivities 
com-menced  in  late  September  as 
opposed  to  its  usual  mid-October 
start.  Regardless  of  the  premature 
kick  off,  the  Corsair  Spirit 
remained  the  same.  "It  was 
difficult  to  organize  in  time," 
admits  Student  Activities 
Coordinator  Mary  Elizabeth 
Butler,  "but  students  supported  it 
none  the  less." 

UMD  students  lined 
Ring  Road  for  the  fourth  annual 
homecoming  parade.  Among  the 
different  groups  that  entered 
floats  were  Student  Activities 
(SAB),  Residence  Hall  Congree 
(RHC),  3A,  the  Pep  Band,  Cedar 
Dell,  and  a  joint  effort  by  Alpha 
Sigma  Tau  and  Phi  Sigma  Sigma. 
"[The  float]  was  a  great  way  to 
promote  Greek  Life  on  campus, 
"said  Phi  Sig  Senior  Chrissy 
Stone.  "It  was  also  a  great 
opportunity  to  bond  with  the 
Alphas." 

Marching  groups 
included  The  Westport  High 
School  Marching  Band,  UMD 
Cheerleaders,  and  Beta  Theta  Pi. 
The  parade  doubled  as  a  float 
competition  with  the  RHC 
coming  out  on  top  followed  by

SAB  and  the  Sororities.  The  Betas 
also  won  for  best  marching  group. 

Another  homecoming 
tradi-tion  has  been  the  Battle  of 
the  Bands.  This  year.  Snow 
Monkey  Plum  and  Singer  Bad 
Dancer  when  head  to  head  in  what 
was  the  equivalent  to  a  "rock  'n' 
roll  football  game."  In  the  spirit 
of  Homecoming  Singer  Bad 
Dancer  "scored  in  over  time"  to 
clinch  the  victory. 

Speaking  of  victories,  the 
Corsairs  destroyed  rival  UMass 
Boston  in  the  climactic  football 
game.  Their  58-6  win  brought  the 
first  ever  Presidents  Cup  home  to 
UMD.  Junior  running  back 
Frank  Meranda  was  awarded 
homecoming  MVP.  Meranda 
rushed  for  125  yards  and  scored 
three  touchdowns. 

At  halftime,  the  second 
annual  king  and  queen  were 
crowned.  Students  voted  as  they 
did  last  year  by  placing  pennies 
in  the  jars  of  their  favorite 
candidates.  This  year  the  crowns 
were  handed  down  to  Erica 
Long  and  Chris  Brown,  both 
representing  Beta  Theta  Pi.  "I 
didn't  really  expect  to  win,"  said 
Brown,  "I  just  went  along  with  it.

Midnight    Madness 

Corsairs  Get  Fans  Excited  for  the 
1999  -  2000  Basketball  Season 


Written  by  Dino  Di  Pasquale 

The  basketball  season  kicked  off  with 
UMD's  second  annual  Midnight  Madness 
held  in  the  Tripp  Athletic  Center.  Colleges 
and  universities  across  the  country  celebrate 
the  tradition  of  Midnight  Madness  as  a  pep 
rally  to  get  their  teams  ready  for  the  basket- 
ball season  and  to  encourage  school  spirit. 
Despite  the  small  turn  out  of  students,  "It  was 
a  tremendous  success,"  said  Student  Activi- 
ties Coordinator  Mary  Elizabeth  Butler.  "Stu- 
dents loved  it  last  year,  so  it  came  back  by 
popular  demand." 

Put  on  by  the  Student  Activity  Board, 
Athletic  Department  and  Spirit  Group,  the 
event  commenced  with  a  fabulous  display  of 
style,  agility,  and  spirit  by  the  champion 
Corsair's  cheerleading  squad.  Their  stunt- 
pulling,  back-flipping,  glow  ball-throwing 
routine  got  the  small  crowd  jumping.  "We 
were  so  excited,"  said  junior  cheerleader 
Mandy  LeGacy.  "When  we  first  came  out, 
the  crowd  was  so  pumped.  We  just  fed  off 


each  other's  energy,  it  was  great." 

After  a  stirring  rendition  of  the  Star 
Spangled  Banner  sung  by  "the  Spinners," 
came  the  moment  every  basketball  fan  waited 
for.  The  Lady  Corsairs  took  the  floor  first 
dazzling  the  crowd  with  an  amazing  free 
throw  and  lay-up  show.  After  a  disappointing 
4-19  record  last  season,  Coach  Lynn  Sheedy's 
team  looked  poised  to  improve. 

As  always,  Coach  John  Baptiste  had  his 
men's  team  running  on  all  cylinders.  The  team 
threw  down  some  seriously  nasty  dunks  to  the 
crowd's  delight.  Coming  off  a  14-11  season, 
Baptiste  had  several  returning  starters  who 
were  determined  to  improve  their  record.  "It 
was  a  great  boost  for  the  hoop  season."  Said 
senior  co-captain  Tim  Ladley.  "It  got  people 
more  involved  with  athletics." 

All  of  this  combined  with  free  food,  free 
t-shirts,  novelties,  and  a  DJ  helped  to  usher  in 
the  new  basketball  season  with  tons  of  flair 
and  loads  of  spirit.

Despite  the  small  turn  out  at  this 
year's  midnight  madness,  the  crowd 
still  managed  to  show  off  their

throws,  and  dunks.

International  Students  at 

UMass 


Written  by  Kristen  Regan 


Bjorn  Endresen  is  a  senior 
computer  science  major  from  Tonsberg, 
Norway.  Known  to  his  friends  as  "Bear," 
he  has  been  an  exchange  student  for  6 
years.  Endresen  graduated  from  high 
school  in  Hanson,  MA  in  1995.  After  that, 
he  returned  home  and  did  a  year  of  college 
in  Norway.  Unsatisfied  with  the 
Norwegian  schools,  "classes  were  larger, 
with  200  people,"  he  said,  Endresen 
returned  to  the  States  to  complete  his 
education.  "I  like  to  travel  and  meet  new 
people,"  Endresen  said. 

For  Endresen,  UMD  is  not  too 
big,  it's  central,  close  to  his  old  exchange 
family  in  Hanson,  and  it  is  accredited, 
which  is  very  important.  Many 
universities  such  as  UMass  Amherst,  are 
not  accredited,  and  an  international 
student's  degree  from  an 
Non-accredited  university  may  be  of  lesser 
value  to  them  in  their  home  country. 

Endresen  is  lucky,  in  his  major, 
he  qualifies  for  loans  and  scholarships 
from  Norway,  which  helps  to  ease  the  cost 
of  tuition.  In  Norway  there  is  a  national 
health  care  system,  and  free  education. 
Endresen  does  not  have  to  pay  for 
healthcare  here,  because  his  government 
covers  it.  "You  go  out  to  eat  a  lot  more 
here  and  most  things  are  cheaper,"  said 
Endresen. 

Norwegians  like  most  Europeans 
are  more  proficient  in  a  few  different 


languages.  "I've  had  English  for  10  years, 
German  for  2,  and  French  for  4  years."  The 
U.S.  is  different  in  other  ways  too.  There 
is  "less  public  transportation,"  Endresen 
said.  "People  are  more  casual  here  -  they 
are  dressed  up  more  in 
Europe... Everything  is  quick  here,  we 
don't  even  have  drive  throughs." 
Norwegians  are  concerned  about  the 
environment,  and  there  were  "no  fossil  fuel 
power  plants,"  he  said.  All  of  the  power 
plants  were  hydroelectric,  although  this  is 
now  changing. 

Endresen  returned  to  Norway  for 
the  Christmas  holiday.  There  festivities  are 
"celebrated  on  Christmas  Eve,"  he  said,  not 
on  the  day.  "Santa  comes  to  everyone's 
house,"  he  said.  May  17  marks  Norway's 
Independence  Day.  They  have  parades  of 
children  singing  there,  and  the  military  is 
not  celebrated  on  the  17,  as  it  is  on  our 
4th. 

Norway  gained  it's  independence, 
in  1814.  Norway  was  in  alliance  with 
Denmark,  and  Sweden  was  in  a  war  with 
Denmark.  The  price  of  the  war  was 
Norway.  Norway  signed  a  Declaration  of 
Independence  on  May  17,  1814.  "I'm  so 
Americanized,"  Endresen  said,  "I  use  a  lot 
of  the  slang,  and  I  drive  like  people  in 
Massachusetts."

Police    Controversy: 

Should  Campus  Police  Have  Guns? 


Written  by  Steve  Whitford 

The  Department  of  Public 
Safety  at  UMD  has  been  trying  for  a 
long  time  to  get  guns  issued  as  part  of 
their  equipment.  Now  it  looks  like  it 
might  happen. 

The  officers  of  the  University 
Police  Department  are  fully  trained 
Special  State  Police.  They  go  through 
the  same  training  as  normal  state  po- 
lice in  every  detail  including  yearly  fire- 
arm recertification. 

"We  are  not  asking  to  be  the  ex- 
ception, we  have  been  the  exception. 
If  the  four  other  UMass  Campuses  all 
carry  weapons,  why  are  we  unique?" 
asks  Officer  Maurice  Dore,  of  the  In- 
ternational Brotherhood  of  Police  Of- 
ficers, Local  399.  It  is  very  dangerous 
sending  unarmed  police  officers  into 
situations  where  criminals  may  have 
weapons,  or  where  they  can  run. 

Some  incidents  this  year  involved 
the  break-ins  into  cars.  "There  are 
people  coming  into  this  University 
armed,  who  prey  on  this  society...  and 
there  are  students  who  possess 
firearms. ..You  can  reasonably  assume 
that  there  are  between  25  and  200  weap- 
ons possessed  by  students  at  UMass 
Dartmouth,"  Dore  commented. 

The  University  police  often  go 
off  campus,  to  refuel  cars,  or  drop  off 
criminals  at  the  jail.  They  are  required 
to  respond  to  all  incidents  at  the  Uni- 
versity buildings  in  New  Bedford.  They 
have  been  approached  for  help  off-cam- 
pus, while  at  these  places. 

"...Even  out  of  our  jurisdiction, 
we  are  sworn  officers,  we  cannot  just 
say  'sorry,  call  New  Bedford'  that's 
dereliction  of  duty  —  we  are  sworn  to 
act.    People  naturally  assume  police- 


men in  full  uniform  with  a  fully 
marked  cruiser,  with  lights,  that 
they're  armed,"  Belliveau  said. 

The  Student  Senate  voted  to  al- 
low police  to  carry  guns  in  a  locked 
box  within  the  squad  cars.  This  still 
does  not  help  officers  on  foot,  or  on 
bike  patrol.  When  several  units  are  re- 
sponding, there  would  be  armed  and 
unarmed  officers  at  the  same  scene. 
When  a  car  is  pulled  over,  the  officer 
would  not  bring  the  gun  with  him, 
leaving  him  unarmed  should  a  situa- 
tion occur.  Cars  could  be  left  unat- 
tended for  long  periods  of  time,  for 
example  at  a  fire  alarm. 

The  police  hosted  an  open 
forum  in  the  Campus  Center  on  No- 
vember 16.  Many  students  and  fac- 
ulty expressed  their  opinions.  The 
long  lines  to  the  microphones  were 
evidence  that  this  is  a  hotly  debated 
topic.  Many  people  felt  guns  simply 
weren't  warranted.  Others  felt  that  by 
bringing  guns  on  to  campus  it  would 
bring  with  it  a  potential  danger  to  the 
students.  "I  don't  think  they  need 
guns,  that's  for  sure.  [There's]  no  need 
for  it,"  said  freshman  Mark  O'Keefe. 
"We  are  a  trained  profes- 
sional police  department  who  are 
equipped  to  handle  almost  any  situa- 
tion, except  one  of  deadly  force." 
Dore  explained.  "I'm  asking  you  to 
assist  me  in  getting  a  tool  I  pray  to 
God  I  never  have  to  use,"  Alves  fin- 
ished. 

At  the  time  this  spread  was  be- 
ing made  the  Faculty  Senate  agreed 
in  favor  of  the  campus  police  to  carry 
guns.  No  official  word  from  the  uni- 
versity has  been  made  and  presently 
the  police  officers  have  no  guns.

UMass  Theater  Company 
Presents  The  Wizard  of  OZ 


Written  by  Pam  Albert 

The  UMass  Theater  Company  has 
done  it  again;  a  classic  production  of  a  play 
filled  with  everything  from  munchkins  to 
witches.  The  Wizard  of  Oz  is  a  show  that  can 
be  enjoyed  over  and  over  because  of  its  appeal 
to  the  young  and  old  alike. 

After  33  years  of  UMD  productions, 
a  new  director  has  come  to  work  with  the 
students;  Chris  London.  London  dedicated 
this  production  of  The  Wizard  of  Oz  and  all 
other  plays  to  follow  to  the  late  Angus  Bailey. 
Bailey  was  the  director  of  UMD  productions 
for  years,  since  his  first  play,  The  Crucible. 
London  addressed  the  crowd  on  opening 
night,  "You  all  know  that  I  have  very  big 
shoes  to  fill." 

Preparation  for  the  show  was  not  long 
enough  for  some,  but  terribly  time  consuming 
for  others,  especially  during  finals  week  for 
many  students.  Said  freshman  Sarah  Jimenez, 
"We  practiced  for  about  a  month,  three  times 
a  week,  but  for  the  last  two  weeks,  it  has  been 
every  day."  For  a  student  involved  in  a  large 
production  like  this,  it  can  be  hard  to  balance 
classes  and  exams  with  their  dedication  to  The 
Wizard  of  Oz. 

The  start  of  the  preparation  was 
learning  the  Jitterbug  dance.  "We  basically 
started  with  the  choreography  and  learned  the 
dances  step  by  step.  We  did  it  over  a  bunch  of 
times,  then  got  in  costumes  and  practiced 
more,"  said  sophmore  Madeline  Eiche,  who 
played  a  Jitterbug  and  a  citizen  of  Oz. 


Many  students  joined  the  play 
because  of  the  signs  put  up  by  the  UMass 
Theater  Company.  Jimenez,  said,  "I  saw  a  sign 
that  people  could  audition  and  I  wanted  to 
audition  for  the  chorus.  I  didn't  want  a  main 
part."  She  didn't  really  enjoy  the  practices  at 
the  start  of  the  production,  though.  "In  the 
beginning  when  we  were  learning  the  songs, 
it  was  kind  of  corny,  but  I  got  into  it  and  it 
was  fun." 

Although  wonderfully  performed,  not 
everyone  agreed  that  the  play  was  prepared 
enough.  Said  freshman  Mike  Ross,  "There 
was  not  too  much  preparation,  and  I  don't 
think  enough  was  done  with  the  play."  Ross 
also  believes  that  "there  was  not  enough 
creative  energy  put  into  the  play . .  .the  director 
wanted  to  make  it  too  much  like  the  movie." 

The  people  who  are  involved  with  the 
Wizard  of  Oz  production  vary  in  age  from 
elementary  school  to  college  level.  The  children 
played  munchkins,  soldiers,  and  other  members 
of  Munchkinland,  while  older  students  played 
the  more  demanding  roles  of  the  main  characters, 
like  the  famous  four:  Dorthy,  the  Tin  Man,  the 
Scarecrow,  and  the  Lion. 

After  all  of  the  work  put  into  practice 
and  the  recital,  the  Wizard  of  Oz  was  a 
wonderful  show  to  see.  All  of  the  actors  did  a 
wonderful  job  and  their  time  and  effort  was 
apparent.  After  the  final  show,  most  of  the 
exhausted  actors  only  had  one  thing  on  their 
minds;  "There's  no  place  like  home!"

Parking  Problem 

So  Many  Cars... 


Written  by  Amanda  Kline 

As  the  Umass  population  is 
increasing,  the  amount  of  available 
parking  is  decreasing.  "This  past  year 
was  the  worst,"  explained  Robin  Xifaras 
of  the  UMass  public  safety  department. 
More  students  are  being  jammed  into 
the  dorms  and  there  is  not  enough 
parking  for  them  in  the  residence  hall 
lots  so  they  are  starting  to  take  up 
commuter  spots.  There  are  also  a  lot  of 
handicapped  spots  on  campus  that  are 
not  used,  but  the  ADA  requires  5 
handicapped  spaces  per  lot.  They  are 
taking  up  about  80  extra  spaces  that 
could  be  turned  into  student  parking, 
"but  it's  the  law,  we  can  do  just  so 
much''  said  Xifaras. 

There  are  4,086  parking  spaces  on 
campus  for  students,  faculty,  and  admin- 
istration. "There  are  enough  spaces  if  people 
would  access  all  of  the  lots,"  said  Xifaras. 
There  are  over  5500  students  alone  at  Umass, 
not  including  employees,  but  not  everyone  is 
on  campus  at  the  same  time.  Not  only  are  the 
spaces  taken  up  by  the  overflow  from  the 
residence  halls,  but  a  lot  of  the  Cedar  Dell 
residents  drive  to  campus  for  class.  It  is  not 
such  a  problem  in  the  spring,  but  during  the 
winter  and  colder  months  few  people  choose 
to  walk  to  class  when  they  can  drive. 

Some  students  in  the  Dell  decide  to 


drive  because  they  feel  safer  doing  so.  It  is  a 
long  walk  to  the  Dell  after  dark,  with  the  open 
field  and  the  line  of  trees.  Administrators  are 
currently  working  on  more  ideas  to  reduce  the 
parking  problem  on  campus.  One  idea  is  to 
not  let  freshmen  bring  cars.  UMass  is  one  of 
the  few  schools  still  allowing  freshmen  to 
have  a  car  on  campus  their  first  year.  This 
would  reduce  the  overflow  from  the  dorms. 
It  has  been  proposed  to  have  electronic  arms 
in  the  residence  halls  and  the  Dell  lots  to 
reduce  the  visitors  that  are  coming  in.  This 
would  leave  more  spots  open  for  their 
designated  purpose.  Campus  police  have  been 
issuing  a  lot  of  tickets  and  even  towing  the 
cars  of  students  who  have  5  or  more,  to  try  to 
reduce  the  amount  of  parking  in  illegal  spots. 
Students  do  not  seem  to  care  though,  it  is 
almost  worth  paying  the  10  dollars  if  you  can 
get  a  decent  spot.  "It's  not  something  that  we 
want  to  do,  but  something  needs  to  be  done  ", 
said  Xifaras. 

It  seems  almost  obvious  that  the 
solution  to  this  problem  would  be  to  create 
more  spaces.  Extra  spaces  have  been  created 
near  the  dorms  and  the  dell,  but  with  the 
amount  of  vegetation  around  the  campus  there 
are  environmental  issues  that  will  prevent  the 
creation  of  more  lots.  It  appears  as  though 
anyone  with  a  class  after  9:30  is  going  to  have 


Housing  over  800  students,  trying  to  find  parking  among  the  559  Cedar  Dell  parking  spaces 
is  almost  impossible  at  any  time  of  day.  Photos  by  Pam  Albert

Career    Expo 

2DQ0 

Students  Preparing  for 
Their  Future 


- 


Written  by  Kristen  Regan 


Representatives  from  many 
different  companies  came  to  be  a  part  of 
the  largest  job  expo  south  of  Boston.  Over 
105  companies  came  to  recruit  students 
for  full  time,  part  time,  and  internship 
positions.  Most  of  the  companies 
attending  the  fair  were  from  the  New 
England  region  and  represented  retail, 
human  services  and  engineering  to  name 
a  few. 

Students  were  able  to  register 
upon  arrival  and  use  the  Resume  Link, 
which  would  allow  their  resumes  to  be 
distributed  to  the  companies  that  attended 
the  fair.  Five  hundred  and  nine  students 
took  advantage  of  this  service  the  career 
resource  center  offered.  The  students 
realized  that  this  was  an  easy  and  efficient 
way  for  them  to  get  their  name  out  to  many 
companies. 

Over  six  hundred  grad  students, 
seniors  and  juniors  attended  the  fair  in 
search  of  employment.  The  event  was 
kicked  off  at  8  a.m.  with  a  Chancellor's 
breakfast  followed  by  the  expo  from  9:30 
a.m.  to  3:30  p.m. 

"I  would  think  that  most  of  the 
students  who  attended  had  opportunities, 


there  were  more  jobs  than  people,"  said  Gail 
Burman,  of  the  Career  Resource  Center 
(CRC).  Anthony  Baird  of  the  CRC,  favors  the 
Resume  Link  system.  "What  is  constant  is  we 
have  an  existing  data  base  current  with  the 
fall  and  spring  semesters.  We  network,  pitch 
the  CRC,  UMass  Dartmouth,  and  the  expo," 
Baird  said. 

Baird  actively  recruits  companies 
year  round.  The  CRC  collects  business  cards 
from  different  companies  and  puts  together  a 
mass  mailing  to  all  of  the  companies  they  have 
on  file.  The  CRC  invites  both  profit  and  non- 
profit companies  to  attend.  The  CRC's 
database  has  over  1000  companies  listed.  The 
companies  who  attend  respond  to  the  mailing 
on  a  first  come  first  serve  basis.  This  year, 
the  CRC  had  to  turn  away  100  companies. 
With  Resume  Link  as  a  pitch,  the  CRC's  expo 
is  attractive  to  many  major  companies.  They 
actively  recruit  in  New  York,  Boston  and 
Providence. 

The  CRC  offers  professional 
development  workshops  to  prepare  students 
for  the  big  event.  Once  students  are  ready, 
preparations  go  underway.  With  such  a 
successful  event  graduates  are  able  to  create 
a  gateway  to  their  future  careers.

Stress

Dealing  With  Self  Motivation 
And  Relaxation 


Written  by  Pam  Albert 

Stress  is  a  problem  that  all  college  students 
face,  as  well  as  any  person  who  has  a  job,  a  rela- 
tionship, or  any  other  stressful  situation  in  life. 
It  can  affect  students'  school  work  in  many  ways. 
If  too  much  work  is  put  on  a  student's  shoul- 
ders, he  or  she  may  give  up  and  either  fall  be- 
hind, or  do  the  minimal  amount  of  work  he  or 
she  can  to  get  by  because  of  stress.  We  all  know 
what  that' s  like,  and  we  all  have  different  ways 
of  getting  through  those  tough  situations,  such 
as  finals  week. 

Some  students  accomplish  more  when  they 
are  put  under  the  pressure  of  a  last-minute  dead- 
line. It  allows  them  have  more  creative  ideas  and 
helps  them  stay  focused  when  they  have  little 
time  left  to  complete  an  assignment. 

The  rest  of  the  population,  though,  doesn't 
have  that  last-minute  motivation  while  we  are 
trying  to  squeeze  in  many  different  classes, 
homework,  and  extracurricular  activities  just  to 
stay  ahead  every  day. 

But  just  what  can  students  do  about  all  of 
this  stress  that  builds  up  inside  them  when  there 
is  a  large  project  or  a  presentation  due  in  less 
then  24  hours?  Some  residents  try  activities  that 
a  Residential  Assistant  (RA)  has  posted,  in  their 
house.  These  activities  have  included  everything 
from  yoga  to  Ultimate  Frisbee.  Others  find  work- 
ing out  in  the  gym  is  a  stress  relieving,  and 
healthy  way  for  their  bodies  and  minds. 

Many  students  that  stay  on  the  weekend 
say  that  they  like  to  sleep  off  the  stress.  Grace 


Resendes,  and  Lenira  Pires,  freshmen,  both 
said,  "I  eat  when  I'm  bored  or  under  stress,  or 
I  just  go  to  sleep." 

Other  students,  like  Pedro  Rosairo,  a 
sophomore,  said,  "I  just  leave  the  whole  world 
behind  and  take  a  long  walk".  Walking  can 
give  you  a  different  perspective  on  stressful 
situations  and  maybe  even  help  you  solve  or 
accomplish  a  little  more  with  the  free  time  to 
just  think.  It  is  also  a  healthy  way  for  the  body 
to  get  exercise,  and  many  students  feel  they 
need  exercise  to  stay  motivated. 

The  new  gym  added  to  the  Athletic  Cen- 
ter is  a  great  place  to  get  fit  in  a  comfortable 
environment.  After  a  short  tutorial  about  us- 
ing the  equipment,  students  are  free  to  use  any 
machines  that  they  think  they  can  handle. 

Many  people  say  they  like  to  sleep  when 
they're  stressed,  (or  any  other  time  they  feel 
there  is  either  nothing  to  do  or  too  much  to 
do).  Everyone  knows  that  students  need  more 
sleep  in  college,  but  not  many  follow  their 
biological  clocks.  Late  night  movies,  parties, 
or  even  studying  can  wear  down  and  lay  even 
more  stress  on  students'  shoulders.  Weekends 
allow  time  to  wind  down  relax,  either  if  they 
stay  in  the  dorms  or  go  home. 

With  a  little  effort,  stressful  situations 
can  be  overcome  and  students  can  find  their 
own  way  of  relieving  stress;  whether  it  is 
sleeping,  eating,  or  exercising.

Student    Parent 

Being  a  Student  and  a  Parent  Takes 
a  Lot  of  Energy  Every  Single  Day 


Written  by  Sarah  Cariere 

A  mother  and  a  wife,  24  year  old  se- 
nior Ginnie  Rego  is  no  ordinary  commuter 
student.  Over  the  last  three  years  here  at 
UMass  Dartmouth  this  student  parent  has 
maintained  a  GPA  of  3.74,  and  has  received 
a  merit  scholarship  for  her  good  grades. 

Five  and  a 
half  years  ago  she 
married  Aaron  Rego 
and  about  two  years 
later  their  son, 
Keagan,  was  born. 
After  high  school, 
Rego  started  at  Sa- 
vannah College  of 
Art  and  Design  in 
Georgia  where  she 
studied  illustration 
for  two  years.  Due  to 
near  loss  of  her 
program's  accredita- 
tion she  transferred  to 
UMass  Dartmouth.

I  put  his  clothes  on  him  he  is  taking  them  off," 
she  said. 

Then  it's  off  to  day  care  for  Keagan, 
and  to  UMass  for  Rego.  After  classes,  Rego 
goes  to  the  library  to  study  or  to  Admissions 

to  run  tours.  Around 
5  p.m.  she  leaves  for 
the  day,  and  picks  up 
Keagan  from  day 
care.  At  home  in 
Berkley,  MA,  she  is 
joined  by  her  hus- 
band Aaron,  if  he's 
not  still  at  work. 
There  is  some  quality 
time  spent  with 
Keagan,  and  of 
course,  dinner.  After 
hitting  the  books, 
Rego  puts  Keagan  to 
bed  at  8p.m.,  and  fin- 


ishes her  homework. 

She  carries  a  full  schedule  of  five  After  she  finishes  her  Bachelors  de- 

classes,  but  it  doesn't  stop  there.  Rego  is  the      gree  in  Political  Science,  this  spring  she  plans 


head  tour  guide  in  Admissions,  and  works  as 
a  senior  tutor  in  the  Reading  and  Writing 
Center.  She  also  works  as  a  data  analyst  with 
the  New  Bedford  Tobacco  Control.  She 
works  anywhere  from  ten  to  thirty  hours  per 
week.  On  top  of  that  she  spends  around  five 
hours  a  day  doing  homework. 

Up  at  7  a.m.  every  day,  she  has  not 
only  herself  to  get  ready  for  the  day  but 
Keagan  too.   Rego  has  to  shower  and  dress, 


to  attend  graduate  school.  Rego  wants  to  com-

their  Law  Degree  program.  A  change  of  scen-

her  on  her  path  towards  a  law  degree. 

One  major  difference  in  her  college 
experience  here  from  Savannah  College,  is  the 
structure  of  her  day.  Having  a  child  totally 
reshaped  her  life.  Rego  felt  she  had  "complete

Paying    for    School 

Many  College  Students  Find 
Financial  Help  by  Working  Part-time 


l~"V 


>"J* 


Written  by  Trisha  Noble 

Hard  work  makes  a  good  student, 
however,  some  students  work  doubly  hard  by 
holding  jobs  and  carrying  a  full  course  load. 
Some  students  believe  that  having  a  job 
hinders  one's  ability  to  make  good  grades. 
Others  disagree  by  saying  that  if  they  didn't 
have  their  jobs  in  the  first  place,  they  couldn't 
afford  to  even  be  in  college.  Furthermore, 
many  students  say  that  having  a  job  actually 
helps  because  it  is  a  taste  of  the  "real  world." 
Who's  to  say  what  is  the  best  way  to  go?  Ask 
some  working  university  students. 

Melody  Shepley,  biology  major, 
holds  two  jobs  but  still  manages  to  excel  in 
her  difficult  classes.  Almost  every  weekend, 
Melody  returns  home  to  the  Milbury 
Friendly' s  where  she  is  the  Guest  Service 
Supervisor.  She  also  has  a  work  study  position 
at  the  library.  Her  average  work  schedule 
contains  between  25  to  30  hours  a  week. 

"My  job  doesn't  really  conflict  with 
my  schoolwork,"  she  explains.  "Obviously, 
if  I  had  more  time  on  Sunday,  I  may  do 
homework,  but  not  necessarily." 

On  the  other  hand,  she  believes  that 
working  while  in  school  helps  her.  "Living 
in  the  Dell  is  kind  of  expensive,  so  working 
gives  me  needed  money.  It  [also]  allows  me 
to  get  away  from  the  stress  of  school  work 
and  to  interact  with  people  who  I  wouldn't 
meet  at  school." 

Although  she  says  her  work  helps  her, 
she  also  adds  that  she  wouldn't  recommend 
working  more  than  thirty  hours  while  taking 
a  full  course  load,  "unless  you  don't  want 
any  kind  of  social  life." 

Paulo  Alexandre  Baganha  says  that 
if  he  worked  over  20  hours,  it  might  hinder 
his  schoolwork.  Paulo  is  a  civil  engineering 
major  and  works  as  a  field  technician  for  ATC 


associates  for  ten  hours  a  week.  He  says  he 
has  no  problems  balancing  work  and  school, 
and  strongly  advocates  it,  especially  if  the  job 
is  in  one's  major. 

"I  get  lots  of  field  experience  for  my 
career  and  I  get  to  meet  a  lot  of  people  with 
connections,"  he  says.  "Students  learn  more 
respect  if  they  have  a  job.  They  strive  to  do 
better  and  become  responsible." 

Adebimpe  "Addie"  Dare  agrees. 
"[Working]  makes  you  a  lot  more  responsible. 
You  have  a  better  focus  on  what  the  real  world 
is  like." 

Addie  has  two  jobs.  She  is  a  Resident 
Assistant  in  Cedar  Dell  West,  and  also  works 
at  subway.  Together,  the  jobs  take  up  between 
35-40  hours  a  week.  Although  she  feels  that 
all  this  work  can  hurt  her  schooling  and  social 
life  "big  time",  she  says  it's  necessary.  "You 
need  jobs  to  pay  bills,  like  credit  cards  and 
tuition.  So  many  people  are  looking  for  you 
to  pay  them." 

Todd  Butkevich,  history  major,  has 
the  same  problems.  "You  have  to  pay  for  food, 
books,  bills,  and  some  sort  of  recreation."  He 
works  as  a  shift  supervisor  at  CVS  15  to  25 
hours  each  week. 

"Work  can  interfere,"  he  admits. 
"You  can't  always  start  a  paper  until  the  night 
before,  but  then  you  don't  get  in  until  11 
o'clock  at  night." 

Nevertheless,  he  feels  that  the  benefits 
outweigh  the  cost.  "[Work]  teaches  me  to  be 
responsible...  I  don't  like  the  term  'slacker' 
for  our  generation.  I've  worked  my  ass  off 
since  I  was  5." 

If  a  student  can  handle  working,  he 
definitely  would  recommend  it.  "It's  not 
always  nice  to  ask  mommy  and  daddy  for 
money  all  the  time."

Tradition    vs 
Technology 

Buying  Books  Online:  Is  it  Worth  the 

Trouble? 


Written  by  Pam  Albert  _, 

Everyone  knows  buying  textbooks  for 
classes  is  one  of  the  most  stressful  and  costly 
parts  of  college.  Online  bookstores  are  getting 
more  and  more  popular  with  college  students 
who  are  looking  to  save  a  few  bucks.  But  are 
online  bookstores  more  convenient  then  the 
UMass  bookstore? 

When  buying  books,  students  have  to 
wait  in  long  lines  and  sometimes  spend  over  $80 
for  only  one  book.  The  decrease  in  value  of 
textbooks  at  the  end  of  the  semester  costs 
students  extra  money  that  many  are  angry  about. 
Online  stores  can  give  you  a  chance  to  compare 
prices  if  you  so  desire. 

But  is  it  really  worth  all  the 
questionnaires  and  possible  lack  of  security  to 
buy  books  on  the  Internet?  Even  though  many 
of  the  companies  boast  discounts  on  books,  most 
run  at  the  same  basic  price  as  college  bookstores. 
When  shipping  and  handling  is  added,  most  are 
the  same  amount,  if  not  slightly  higher  than 
books  at  the  UMass  bookstore.  Plus,  the  store  is 
right  on  campus  and  it's  convenient  to  stop  in 
between  classes  to  pick  up  what  you  need.  Online 
stores  can  only  get  the  books  to  you  in  about 
three  days. 

What  do  students  think  of  this  method 
versus  traditional  bookstore  shopping?  Grace 
Resendes,  a  freshman,  simply  said,  "I  wanted  to 
pay  less  for  what  I  was  buying".  Others  think 
that  the  bookstore  is  good  enough,  and  don't 
want  to  play  around  with  internet  shopping. 


The  manager  of  the  UMass 
bookstore,  Dave  Carlson,  has  a  new  service 
students  can  benefit  from.  The  bookstore  will 
be  put  on  the  Internet,  and  will  be  selling 
books  online  as  well  as  in  the  campus  store. 
This  way,  students  will  not  have  to  drive  to 
the  campus  in  order  to  get  books  before  classes 
resume,  and  still  have  the  benefits  of  getting 
used  and  new  books  at  the  best  possible  prices, 
without  having  to  wait  in  long  lines. 

Carlson  also  explained  how  the 
bookstore  works.  "All  of  the  money  the  store 
makes  goes  back  to  UMass.  It  gives  us  money 
to  help  with  tuition,  to  buy  equipment  and  to 
better  the  school."  Online  stores  match  the 
prices  of  college  bookstores,  but  the  money 
you  spend  is  going  for  their  own  profit. 

Online  stores  are  also  harder  to  sell 
books  back  to  at  the  end  of  the  semester.  On 
one  of  the  sites  that  includes  returns,  decided 
they  would  pay  eight  dollars  for  a  $40 
literature  book,  no  matter  what  condition  it  is 
in.  If  you  are  quick  to  sell  books  back  at  the 
campus  store,  you'd  get  more  cash  in  return 
for  most  books.  Plus,  you  wouldn't  have  to 
pay  to  ship  the  book  back  to  the  company. 

If  waiting  for  textbooks  to  come  in 
by  mail  makes  you  nervous,  online  shopping 
probably  isn't  the  best  idea  for  you.  For  others, 
if  you  can  find  a  deal,  it  can  save  you  lots  of 
money,  but  remember  to  shop  around  to  find 
the  best  bargain.

Night    Shift 

Desk  Attendants 


Written  by  Kristen  Regan 

UMass  takes  many  precautions  when  it 
comes  to  providing  a  safe  and  secure  place  to 
live.  In  addition  to  the  call  boxes,  well  lit  paths, 
and  patrolling  officers,  the  residence  hall  is 
equiped  with  front  door  desk  attendants. 

During  the  day  students  use  their  key  to 
access  their  building  and  come  and  go  as 
necessary.  After  8  p.m.  the  main  door  to  each 
phase  is  the  only  door  left  unlocked,  and  all  other 
doors  are  locked  an  alarmed  to  prevent  students 
and  visitors  from  coming  and  going. 

Anyone  entering  the  dorm  after  8 
o'clock,  is  faced  by  one  of  UMass'  student  desk 
attendants.  Here  resident  students  must  show 
their  id's  to  prove  that  they  live  in  the  residence 
hall  area.  Anyone  without  an  id  must  be  signed 
in  as  a  guest  using  another  form  of  a  valid  id.  If 
a  student  has  lost  or  forgotten  their  id  they  must 
be  looked  up  on  a  list  to  make  sure  they  belong 
where  they  are. 

When  asking  the  desk  attendants  about 
their  job  many  interesting  stories  came  up.  Bryan 
Wallace  a  sophomore  marketing  major  is  a  desk 
attendant  in  Residence  Hall  Phase  3A.  He  has 
seen  a  variety  of  people  and  events  come  and  go 
through  the  3 A  doors.  There  have  been  drunk 
people,  two  fights  and  people  trying  to  commit 
suicide.  "One  night  the  paramedics  showed  up 
right  at  the  end  of  my  shift,"  said  Wallace. 

Wallace  enjoys  his  job,  "you  get  paid  to 
watch  TV,"  he  said.  He  gets  to  meet  everyone 


that  lives  in  the  building,  and  many  others,  that 
live  in  the  neighboring  residence  halls. 

Wallace  worked  from  eight  to  midnight 
Tuesday,  Sunday,  and  an  occasional  Friday  or 
Saturday  night.  Sometimes  he  would  have  fun 
with  the  drunk  people  who  would  forget  their 
ID's.  "They  would  say  'oh  I  left  my  ID 
somewhere,'  and  I  used  to  make  them  do 
jumping  jacks  and  pushups,"  he  said.  The 
students  actually  did  it  too.  "They  would  be  like 
'are  you  serious?'  I  was  like,  'yeah.'"  Wallace 
said.  "Some  people  are  so  naive,"  he  continued. 

Some  of  Wallace's  pet  peeves  of  the  job 
include,  the  infamous:  "Do  I  really  have  to  sign 
this  person  in?"  Many  students  would  ask  that 
about  their  friends  who  might  come  up  for  the 
visit.  "Yes  that's  the  policy,"  Wallace  would  say. 
Also,  people  who  didn't  have  their  id's.  That 
almost  goes  without  saying. 

A  final  annoyance  was  that  "the 
Domino's  guy  would  come  15-20  times  a  night 
and  no  one  would  ever  offer  me  pizza,"  he  said. 
One  final  thing  he  said,  "I  wish  they  had  a  remote 
control  for  the  TV  so  you  wouldn't  have  to  get 
up  to  change  the  channel." 

Bryan,  like  many  of  the  other  desk 
attendants  found  his  job  as  a  desk  attendant  to 
be  very  entertaining.  Of  course  there  is  no  perfect 
on  campus  job,  but  being  a  desk  attendant  seems 
pretty  close. 


Two  desk  attendants  just  began  their  shift 
in  the  3B  lobby.  They  are  anticipating  the 
many  new  sights  they  will  see  tonight.

Students  Don't  go  to  the

the  Campus  Gossip 


Written  by  Kristen  Regan 

Whether  it's  a  break  for 
a  coffee,  or  a  complete  cafeteria 
lunch,  the  Commuter  Cafe  is  the 
place  to  be  between  1 1:30  a.m. 
and  12:30  p.m.  The  heaviest 
traffic  spans  from  12-12:30  p.m. 
Some  days  there  are  musical 
performances,  interactive  game 
shows,  and  other  entertainment. 
These  are  sponsored  mostly  by 
the  Student  Activities  Board 
(SAB)  and  add  to  the  usual 
volume  of  noise  in  the  Cafe. 

"I  study  better  with  the 
noise;  the  random  people  are 
entertaining,"  junior  Ben  Sutton 
said.  Friends  usually  meet  there 
to  discuss  their  classes,  and  study 
all  while  having  a  nutritious  meal 
provided  by  the  Sodex'ho- 
Marriott.  Some  students  bring 
lunch,  preferring  their  brown  bags 
over  what  the  Cafe  has  to  offer. 

During  the  day,  the 
Commuter  Cafe  is  the  University's 
busiest  dining  facility  apart  from 
the  Residents  Dining  Hall,  which 
is  reserved  for  dormitory  students 
and  their  guests. 


A  variety  of  people, 
sounds,  and  for  the  most  part,  food, 
clutter  the  Cafe  at  lunch  time.  If 
you  don't  like  the  days  entree  there, 
then  you  can  always  go  across  the 
way  to  the  North  Alcove,  or 
upstairs  to  the  Sunset  Room. 

Some  students  have 
classes  scheduled  back  to  back. 
'"I'm  a  com-muter,  yet  I  don't  have 
time  in  my  schedule  to  eat  lunch. 
Usually  there's  just  enough  time  for 
me  to  grab  a  bottle  of  water  and  a 
Snickers  bar  from  the  bookstore," 
says  Bryan  Hancock,  a  junior 
psychology  major. 

With  the  mix  of  students 
and  faculty  who  dine  there, 
maybe  the  Commuter  Cafe 
should  be  changed  to  something 
more  ubiquitous,  like  the 
University  Cafe.  No  matter  what 
you  call  it,  the  Cafe  will  always 
be  a  hot  spot,  for  those  who  have 
more  than  fifteen  minutes  for  their 
midday  dining.

Women's    Resource 

Center 

Celebrates  30th  Birthday 


Written  by  Kristen  Regan 

The  year  2000  marks  the  30  birthday  for 
the  Women's  Resource  Center  (WRC).  To 
celebrate  the  center  has  planned  30  events 
throughout  the  year. 

Farah  Bowers,  a  senior  English  literature 
major,  talked  about  the  art  show,  "a  lot  of  people 
came,"  Bowers  said.  The  show  was  up  for  a 
month.  The  pieces  varied  in  media.  There  was 
stained  glass,  sculpture,  a  latex  piece,  metal,  and 
photography. 

The  Vagina  Monologues  was  the  biggest 
event  that  the  Women's  Center  held  this  year. 
Eve  Ensler,  the  playwright,  interviewed  women 
about  their  vaginas,  and  wrote  a  series  of 
monologues,  about  menstruation,  childbirth,  and 
rape,  with  other  experiences  women  experience. 

Only  14  people  auditioned  for  parts  in 
the  play.  Every  woman  that  auditioned  got  a  part 
and  some  had  two.  The  turnout  was  terrific,  450 
people  came  to  the  one  night  February 
performance,  which  was  actually  held  on 
Valentine's  Day.  The  WRC  raised  $6000  from 


the  play  and  donated  the  funds  to  seven  local 
women's  agencies. 

Despite  being  in  a  different  location,  the 
basement  of  Phase  2  house  6,  in  the  Residence 
Halls,  the  Women's  Resource  Center  provides 
a  place  where  women  can  obtain  information, 
and  grow  to  their  full  potential.  They  have 
received  a  lot  more  publicity  this  year  because 
of  their  30th  anniversary. 

"We're  getting  major  publicity,"  said 
Juli  Parker,  the  WRC  Director  said.  "It's 
important  to  give  kudos  to  those  who  paved  the 
way."  The  UMD  WRC  is  one  of  the  oldest 
college  women's  centers  in  the  country.  It  was 
originally  founded  as  a  birth  control  pregnancy 
referral  center.  At  a  time  when  birth  control 
wasn't  legal  -  this  was  a  pretty  radical  idea. 

This  year  long  celebration  will  close  on 
November  18,  at  an  awards  ceremony  honoring 
women  who  have  shown  outstanding  leadership 
on  campus,  and  in  the  community.

Strong    Winds 

are    a    Constant 

Annoyance 

Winds  are  Always  a  Problem  for 
Students  Walking  to  Class 


Written  by  Steve  Whitford 

Wind  is  one  thing  about  UMD  that  is 
constant,  well  that  and  the  fact  that  there  will  be 
very  little  on  days  when 
incoming  students  take  the 
tours.  The  UMass 
Dartmouth  campus  is  in  a 
prime  location,  to  receive 
all  the  buffeting  Mother 
Nature  can  dish  out  at  the 
southern  New  England 
coast.  UMD  is  only  a  few 
miles  of  flat  land  from  the 
open  ocean,  across  which, 
there  is  miles  and  miles  of 
open  space  and  little 
ground  friction  to  slow 
down,  or  break  the  wind. 

At  UMD,  the  wind 
seems  to  be  amplified  by  the 
surrounding  landscape.  On  a  rainy  day,  many 
students  have  found  out  the  hard  way  that  it  is 
useless  to  carry  an  umbrella.  "There  is  an 
unnatural  amount  of  wind  on  campus,"  said 
Melody  Shepley,  senior.  This  is  largely  because 
there  is  little  to  stop  it.  The  main  buildings  are 
surrounded  my  flat  parking  lots,  and  fields  on 
all  sides.  This  does  absolutely  nothing  to 
diminish  the  force  of  the  wind.

There  is  rarely  a  day  at  UMD  that  is 
wind-free.  It  may  seem  calm  when  you  look 

out  the  window,  but  as 
soon  as  you  reach 
Centennial  Drive,  the 
wind  picks  up  over  the 
flat  parking  lots,  and 
buffets  you  when  you 
are  trying  to  walk. 

The  class  of  2000 

knows  all  to  well  the 

kind    of    wind    that 

UMD  can  experience. 

In  1996,  back  when 

many  of  the  class  of 

2000  were  Freshman, 

Hurricane  Bob  came  to 

make     moving     day 

extremely  difficult.  The 

school  even  issued  warnings  saying  to  stay 

home. 

UMD's  location  is  unique  for  wind, 
and  there  are  two  things  that  are  certain.  First, 
the  area  by  the  ampitheter  will  always  be  a 
wind  tunnel  and  secondly,  the  wind  will 
always  be  calm,  and  the  day  will  be  bright 
and  shiny  for  prospective  students  visiting 
campus.

Finally    the 
Weekend 

By  Thursday  Night,  Many 
Students  Begin  Planning 
their  Weekend  Activities 


The  game  room,  in  the  Campus  Center,

semester.  Arcade  games  was  moved  into 
to  the  pool  hall  to  make  room  for  the  new

Friday  morning  and 
tension  hums  in  every  classroom. 
Students  wriggle  in  their  seats, 
staring  at  the  clock  and  paying 
even  less  attention  to  the 
professor  than  usual.  The 
weekend  is  here. 

A  lot  of  students  leave 
the  campus  on  the  weekends,  not 
to  return  until  the  next  Monday's 
class.  However  a  significant 
number  of  students  stay  over  the 
weekend;  something  interests 
them. 

"I  like  to  have  some  time 
alone,"  explains  Kristen  Greene, 
a  senior  math  major.  "I  consider 
here  [Cedar  Dell]  home."  She  also 
says  she  finds  a  lot  to  do  on  the 
weekends  for  social  pleasure. 
'There  are  a  lot  of  Outing  Club 
trips,  and  parties  to  attend." 

However,  Kristen  thinks 
the  area,  itself,  doesn't  hold  a  lot 
of  interest,  which  is  why  so  many 
leave.  "There's  not  much  to 
do  which  doesn't  center  on 
shopping,  eating,  or  movies." 

This  fact  doesn't  bother 
Steven  Splinter,  a  senior  English 
and  philosophy  major.  "I  walk. 
1  do  some  web  surfing, 
and  reading."  However,  he 
believes  there  should  be  more 


transportation  out  of  the  area. 
"We  need  more  shuttles  to  places 
off  campus,  like  the  mall,  the 
beach,  more  movie  theatres." 

He  doesn't  think  there  is 
much  that  can  be  done  with  the 
amount  of  students  leaving. 
"Some  have  jobs  back  home,  and 
some  just  aren't  interested  in  the 
school  or  the  area." 

Senior  Heidi  Zwicker, 
and  English/Film  &  Drama 
major,  only  leaves  campus  once 
a  month  because,  "It's  such  a  long 
drive  home  and  I  really  don't  like 
to  drive.  Furthermore,  my  friends 
stay  here  and  we  do  all  sorts  of 
fun  stuff.  We  go  to  Providence, 
bars  in  New  Bedford,  the  track, 
movies,  or  just  drive  around." 

Zwicker  believes  that  the 
mostly  younger  students  tend  to 
leave  the  campus.  There  isn't 
enough  for  them  to  do.  "There 
needs  to  be  cheap  stuff  for  the 
under  21  crowd." 

For  those  who  like  the 
quieter  atmosphere  around 
weekends,  perhaps  it's  best  that 
fewer  students  stay.  However,  if 
the  school  or  the  area  desires 
more  students  to  stick  around  on 
the  weekends,  the  students  have 
said  what  could  help.

Spring    Concert 

Fun  for  All,  All  for  Fun 


Written  by  Kristen  Regan 


The  Roots  and  Outkast  were  chosen  to 
perform  at  this  year's  spring  concert.  "A  local  R&B 
group  called  3  of  a  Kind"  opened  the  show,  said  Cliff 
Blaise,  junior,  major  events  chairperson  for  the 
Student  Activities  Board  (SAB). 

"The  Roots,  are  an  alternative  hip-hop 
group,"  Blaise  said,  "Unlike  most  modern  rap  groups 
that  tend  to  sample,  the  Roots  make  up  their  own 
[music]."  Each  member  of  the  group  also  plays  an 
instrument. 

Eunice  Monteiro,  freshman,  SAB  member, 
said  "there  were  a  lot  of  people  —  it  was  a  popular 
event."  Close  to  2000  people  turned  out  for  the 
concert.  They  were  a  "very  peaceful,  enthusiastic 
crowd,"  Blaise  said. 

"I  know  a  lot  of  people  who  traveled  from 
far  to  go  to  the  concert,"  junior  Jess  Andrews  said. 
Some  people  actually  arrived  in  limousines.  "I  guess 
the  Roots  have  a  big  following,"  she  said. 

The  bass  seemed  to  be  a  problem  while 
Outkast  was  performing.  The  Tripp  Athletic  Center 


is  not  designed  for  concerts  so  it  was  kind  of  expected 
that  the  acoustics  would  be  off  a  little.  Andrews  was 
working  at  the  snack  shack  outside  of  the  gym  and 
confirmed  that,  "The  acoustics  weren't  so  good." 

The  snack  shack  was  booming  with  water 
sales,  because  the  gym  was  so  hot,  and  it  didn't  help 
that  some  people  inside  were  smoking.  There  was  no 
smoking  permitted  inside  of  the  gym  but  people 
seemed  to  get 

away  with  it.  Between  the  heat  and  the  smoke,  it  made 
for  an  uncomfortable  event.  "You  could  not  have  come 
out  of  there  not  smelling  like  smoke,"  Andrews  said. 

The  performing  groups  were  chosen  by  SAB 
from  a  list.  "We  had  a  list  of  all  of  the  groups...  alot  of 
them  were  really  expensive,"  Blaise  said.  "When  it 
came  down  to  it,  those  were  the  only  2  groups  that 
would  come  to  us,  and  we  could  afford,"  Blaise  said. 
SAB  was  really  excited  about  the  success  of  the 
concert.  "We  are  looking  forward  to  another  great 
concert  next  year,"  Blaise  said.

Spring    Fever 

Spring  Week  is  a  Hit 


Written  by  Jessica  Andrews 

Spring  Week  2000  was,  "fun  and 
exciting,"  said  junior  Cliff  Blaise,  the 
major  event  coordinator  of  the  Student 
Activities  Board  (SAB).  "There  were 
various  activities  that  stimulated  the 
student  body,"  Blaise  said.  Some  of  the 
events  included  laser  tag  on  the  quad,  a 
big  inflatable  moonwalk  where  you  could 
put  on  big  boxing  gloves  and  be  a  boxer 
(safely  of  course),  and  a  virtual  reality 
ride.  "It  was  a  virtual  reality  roller  coaster 
ride.  It  really  felt  like  I  was  on  a  roller 
coaster,"  Eunice  Monterio,  a  freshman 
SAB  member  said.  "Laser  tag  was 
awesome;  it  was  futuristic,"  Blaise  said. 

Most  of  the  activities  were 
focused  around  the  quad  during  the  day 
while  classes  were  in  session,  but  there 
were  also  events  at  night  for  those  who 
spent  most  of  their  day  in  class.  It  was 
important  to  let  everyone  who  wanted  to 
participate,  be  able  to  do  so.  One  major 
event  was  an  all  day  all  night  day  of 


activity  in  the  residence  hall  quad.  The 
scheduled  day  of  this  event  was  cancelled  due 
to  weather,  but  no  one  wasted  any  time  in 
rescheduling  the  big  event.  This  event 
included  things  such  as  a  dunk  tank  where 
students  could  dunk  their  RA,  pay  to  see  their 
RD  kiss  a  pig,  and  also  a  huge  cookout  free 
to  all  students. Mary  Elizabeth  Butler,  the 
student  activities  coordinator  said,  "Spring 
Week  2000  was  the  most  collaborative  Spring 
Week  we've  had."  Over  ten  student  groups 
participated  to  the  success  of  Spring  Week. 
Butler  said,  "there  was  an  overwhelming 
turnout  for  all  of  the  events,  the  student  groups 
involved  were  pleased." 

Spring  Week  at  UMD  was  not  just 
all  about  fun  and  games.  It  also  involved  the 
community,  and  benefited  the  HEFFER 
project.  The  HEFFER  project  is  an 
international  non-profit  organization  that 
assists  people  by  training  them  to  be 
self-sufficient  and  teaching  them  how  to  farm 
so  that  they  can  feed  their  countries.

Nefertiti    Ball 

UBS  sponsors  annual  semi- 
formal  at  the  Hawthorne 
Country  Club 


Written  by  Kristen  Regan 

Around  the  time  the  Student 
Activities  Board  is  throwing  the 
Spring  Ball,  the  United  Brothers  and 
Sisters  Group  (UBS)  also  has  their 
annual  semi-formal  event,  the 
Nefertiti  Ball.  The  UBS,  and  the 
Frederick  Douglas  Unity  House  on 
campus  sponsor  the  Ball. 

This  year  their  annual  ball 
was  held  at  the  Hawthorne  Country 
Club  in  Dartmouth.  It  was  the  nicest 
one  yet,  because  they  were  able  to 
hold  it  off  campus.  Holding  the 
Nefertiti  Ball  off  campus  brought  a 
different  atmosphere  to  the  event.  It 
is  nice  to  be  able  to  get  dressed  up 
but  it  is  another  thing  to  have 
someplace  nice  to  go  too. 

About  200  people  attended 
the  event,  making  it  the  "biggest  one 
they've  had  so  far,"  Norm  Barber,  the 
adviser  to  the  UBS,  said.  In  past  years 


UBS  has  held  their  event  in  the 
Commuter  Cafeteria  at  school,  and 
other  places  on  campus.  This  year 
the  UBS  had  the  money  to  go  off 
campus,  which  excited  many  of  the 
UBS  members.  Holding  the  Nefertiti 
Ball  off  campus  seemed  to  spark  a 
lot  more  interest  in  the  event. 

The  UBS  executive  board  is 
mainly  responsible  for  having  pulled 
the  event  together.  "It  pretty  much 
was  UBS,  the  executive  committee," 
Barber  said.  The  members  spent 
countless  hours  calling  people, 
arranging,  and  organizing  the  event. 
In  the  end  all  of  their  hard  work  paid 
off.  The  Ball  was  well  received  by 
many  students  on  the  campus.  Next 
year  the  UBS  plans  to  hold  the  Ball 
at  the  Hawthorne  again,  or  maybe 
they  will  try  another  nice  place  off 
campus.

Spring  Ball  2000 


Written  by  Sarah  Carriere 


The  Spring  Ball  took  place  at  the 
Biltmore  Hotel  in  Providence  for  the 
second  year  in  a  row.  The  event  is  held 
annually  and  is  coordinated  by  SAB,  and 
is  the  most  popular  event  of  the  Academic 
year.  This  year  as  always  the  tickets  sold 
out  in  less  than  two  weeks.  The  night  was 
filled  with  great  food,  music,  dancing  and 
tons  of  fun  for  all  whom  attended. 
Everyone  was  dressed  to  impress  and 
planned  on  having  a  great  time,  which  is 
what  everyone  did. 

With  only  five  hundred  tickets 
available  and  over  one  thousand 
graduating  seniors,  many  students  who 
wanted  to  attend  their  senior  year  Spring 
Ball  were  unable  to  do  so.  In  previous 
years,  the  event  has  been  frequented  by 
mainly  juniors  and  seniors.  This  year  it 
seemed  as  though  it  was  just  as  popular 
among  the  freshmen  and  sophomore 
population. 

Many  upperclassmen  posted 
signs  on  campus  and  tried  to  find  tickets 
so  they  would  be  able  to  attend  the  event. 
"I  knew  that  if  I  wanted  to  go,  I  would 
have  to  get  my  tickets  early.  I  got  my 
tickets  on  the  second  day  they  were  on 


sale  and  already  there  was  a  good  number 
of  people  on  the  list,"  said  junior  Amanda 
Kline. 

It  was  disappointing  to  many  students  that 
were  unable  to  attend  the  Spring  Ball. 
Many  students  feel  as  though 
upperclassmen  should  have  some  sort  of 
seniority  when  tickets  go  on  sale. 

Other  students  just  feel  that  five 
hundred  tickets  are  just  not  enough.  It 
would  be  difficult  to  find  a  location  with 
a  capacity  for  more  than  five  hundred 
people,  but  it  would  make  a  lot  of  people 
happy. 

Although  many  were  upset  with 
their  inability  to  purchase  tickets,  those 
who  did  attend  the  event  had  a  great  time. 
The  girls  were  dressed  marvelously, 
looking  their  very  best;  as  well  as  the  guys 
who  were  dressed  in  their  best  looking 
and  very  handsome.  Dancing  late  into  the 
night,  it  was  a  very  up  beat  atmosphere 
that  seemed  like  it  would  never  end.  By 
the  end  of  the  night  everyone  was 
exhausted  from  dancing  all  night  long, 
many  looking  forward  to  the  event  next 
year.

SD    Day    Ratt 

Celebrating  the  countdown  til 
graduation  with  Bob's  Day  Off 


Written  by  Nick  Kurowski 

Of  all  of  the  parties,  social  events,  and 
gatherings  students  of  UMass  Dartmouth  get 
to  enjoy,  there's  always  that  one  word  that  will 
never  escape  them:  a  RATT.  When  graduated 
seniors  turn  into  alumni,  they  will  always 
reminisce  on  Senior  Week  and  graduation  day. 
The  class  of  2000  will  not  be  any  different 
from  them,  but  most  likely,  for  the  ones  who 
attended,  will  also  refer  to  one  special  night 
in  May. 

The  "Fifty  Days  Until  Graduation" 
Ratt  hosted  by  local  area  band  Bob's  Day  Off 
went  over  as,  some  say,  "the  best  Art  ever!" 
As  the  campus  center  was  filled  to  capacity, 
students  were  yelling,  screaming,  and,  for 
seniors,  living  up  the  last  couple  of  weeks  of 
their  college  career. 

This  downstairs  art  had  been  widely 
promoted  by  the  hard  working  Senior  Class 
Officers  who  had  worked  very  hard  to  get  this 
event  going  and  provide  the  entertainment  they 
knew  their  peers  would  appreciate.  After 
surveying  and  asking  students  what  they'd  like 
oto  see  for  one  of  their  final  Ratt's,  they  came 
up  with  a  great  idea. 


A  local  band  named  Bob's  Day  Off  did  the 
UMass  Dartmouth  community  a  favor  by 
cutting  out  a  day  on  their  busy  schedule  to 
play  for  this  most  enthusiastic  crowd.  They 
focused  their  play,  to  mostly  cover  songs, 
which  the  crowd  was  ready  and  willing  to  sing 
along  with. 

An  unusual  event  for  the  Senior  Class 
found  them  closing  the  doors  to  students 
before  midnight  due  to  the  fact  the  Campus 
Center  had  so  quickly  filled  up.  Students 
partied  in  the  campus  center  for  a  solid  three 
hours  enjoying  the  band. 

The  Students  who  attended  this  great 
event  swarmed  back  to  Cedar  Dell  to  continue 
a  great  night  of  partying.  With  a  couple  of 
good  post  parties,  the  graduating  class  of  2000 
got  a  good  chance  to  hang  out  with  good 
friends.  They  also  got  to  realize  it  was  time 
to  finish  up  those  incompletes,  polish  up  their 
resumes,  get  ready  for  the  real  world,  and 
most  importantly  party  it  up  for  the  fifty  days 
they  had  remaining  until  graduation.

Montreal 
Trip 

SAB  Sponsors  Annual  Trip 

to  Montreal 


Written  by  Amanda  Kline 

Before  the  sun  had  even  come  up 
on  April  15th  ,  numerous  UMASS 
students  were  standing  in  small  groups 
at  the  blinking  lights  near  the  dorms 
awaiting  the  arrival  of  four  coach  busses 
bound  for  Montreal.  The  Montreal  Trip 
sponsored  by  SAB  occurred  over  Patriots 
day  weekend  as  it  usually  does.  For 
$109.00  students  got  transportation, 
hotel,  and  many  discount  coupons  for 
clubs  and  restaurants  in  the  lively 
Canadian  city. 

Once  in  Canada,  after  ten  hours 
on  the  bus  the  students  were  free  to  do 
whatever  it  was  that  they  wanted  to  do. 
After  relaxing  for  a  while,  many  got 
dressed  up  and  headed  out  to  eat,  drink, 
and  dance  the  night  away.  The  hotel  was 
not  very  far  from  all  of  the  nightlife  and 
fun  everyone  had  anticipated.  Neon 
lights,  music  and  people  lined  St. 
Catherine's  Street,  Peel  Street,  Crescent 
St.  and  St.  Laurent  Street,  to  name  a  few. 

Emily  Mozzone  a  junior  EI 
major  said  that  "I  had  low  expectations 
of  Mexican  food  made  in  Canada,  but 
when  I  went  to  Carlos  and  Pepe's  I  was 
pleasantly  surprised  with  the  great  food 
and  fun  atmosphere."  Emily,  like  many 
other  students  chose  Carlos  and  Pepe's 
as  their  favorite  dining  choice.  Many 
students  started  off  with  dinner  and  then

great  sites.

moved  on  to  the  many  clubs  to  find 
music  and  dancing. 

Before  embracing  the  night 
life,  some  students  decided  to  take 
in  some  of  the  sites  that  Montreal  had  to 
offer.  The  Biodome,  the  Notre  Dame 
Cathedral,  and  Olympic  Stadium  were 
some  of  the  main  attractions.  Addie 
Dare,  a  junior,  wanted  to  take  advantage 
of  some  of  the  sites  before  going  out  and 
enjoying  all  the  nightlife.  She  and  her 
friends  climbed  up  a  mountain  near  the 
hotel  where  they  could  see  the  entire  city. 
"I  didn't  realize  that  we  were  actually 
climbing  a  mountain  until  we  started  out 
on  our  journey.  Once  I  got  over  the 
exhausting  climb,  the  view  of  the  city 
blew  me  away,  but  I'd  probably  never 
do  it  again." 

It  did  not  take  long  for  the 
students  to  know  where  to  go  and  what 
time  things  picked  up.  When  students 
were  asked  where  the  hot  places  to  be 
were,  they  replied  with  many  responses. 
Many  students  hung  out  at  the  Peel  Pub, 
it  had  a  young  crowd  and  a  fun 
atmosphere.  Others  went  to  the  Dome 
or  the  Casino.  Whether  you  went  to  a 
cafe,  a  pub,  restaurant,  or  a  club  you  were 
bound  to  find  a  UMASS  students  there. 
All  of  the  students  whom  attended  the 
trip  seemed  to  have  had  a  great  time.

Uriass    Theatre 
Co-    Presents 

Guys  and  Dolls 


Written  by  Jessica  Andrews 

The  UMass  Dartmouth  Theater 
Company  performed  the  musical  Guys 
and  Dolls  from  May  4  through  May  7, 
2000.  The  setting  is  1940's  Broadway. 
You  have  Nathan  Detroit,  played  by 
Eddie  Camara,  who  is  a  "floating"  craps 
game  dealer.  Gambling  was  illegal,  so  the 
game  had  to  move  from  place  to  place  to 
avoid  getting  caught.  Nathan  has  been 
engaged  to  a  stripper  named  Miss 
Adelaide,  played  by  Alyssa  Procaccini, 
for  14  years.  She  danced  at  a  club  called 
The  Hot  Box,  and  hated  his  gambling 
ring,  so  he  had  to  do  it  behind  her  back. 
In  addition  to  these  two,  you  have  a 
world-renowned,  high-rolling  gambler 
named  Sky  Masterson,  played  by  Marc 
Lalosh. 

Nathan  is  looking  for  another 
place  to  have  his  game  so  he  makes  a  bet 
with  Sky.  He  bets  that  Sky  cannot  get  the 
prim  and  proper  missionary  named  Sarah 
Brown,  played  by  Karen  Faxon,  to  go 
with  him  to  Havana.  Sky  convinces  her 
to  come  with  him,  but  all  he  tells  her  are 
lies  about  repenting  his  sins.  The  funny 
thing  is  that  by  the  end  of  their  trip,  he 
really  means  everything  that  he  said. 
When  this  unlikely  pair  get  back  to 
Broadway,  they  are  greeted  by  a  group 
of  gamblers  pouring  out  of  the  mission. 
Sky  didn't  know  that  they  were  planning 
on  having  the  game  inside  the  mission 


while  they  were  away,  but  it  doesn't 
matter  because  Sarah  thinks  that  he  did. 

To  prove  to  Sarah  that  he  meant 
everything  he  said  about  repenting  his 
sins,  he  plays  one  last  craps  game.  If  Sky 
wins,  then  he  wins  the  men's  souls  and 
they  would  have  to  come  to  a  prayer 
meeting  at  the  mission.  If  they  won,  he 
would  pay  each  of  them  one  thousand 
dollars.  Sky  won,  so  all  the  gamblers, 
along  with  the  Hot  Box  girls,  had  to  go 
to  the  meeting. 

These  performances  of  Guys 
and  Dolls  seemed  especially  sweet. 
Everyone  seemed  to  fit  into  his  or  her 
part  perfectly,  and  everyone  was  in 
perfect  synchronization.  At  each 
performance  Jarrad  Nunes  (Nicely 
Nicely  Johnson)  tossed  his  hat  behind  his 
head  with  out  even  looking  and  each  time 
Marc  Jaillet  (Benny  Southstreet)  caught 
it.  It  really  did  not  seem  planned,  but  it 
was  a  wonderful  added  effect.  Dino 
DiPasquale,  who  played  Big  Jule,  echoed 
all  of  these  thoughts  when  he  said,  "this 
was  the  most  fun  I've  ever  had 
performing  in  a  musical.  The  cast  worked 
so  well  together.  Rehearsal  wasn't  even 
a  chore.  Our  musical  director,  Bobby 
Perry,  was  unbelievable,  and  Janice 
MacDonald,  our  director,  was 
awesome."

New    Honor    Society 
Recognized    at    UHD 

The  Golden  Key  National  Honor  Society 


Written  by  Amanda  Kline 


This  year  UMD  adopted  a  new  honor 
society  to  recognize  juniors  and  seniors  in  the 
top  15%  of  their  class.  The  UMASS  Dartmouth 
chapter  of  the  Golden  Key  National  Honor 
Society  was  chartered  on  May  8,  2000.  Golden 
Key  was  founded  in  1977  at  Georgia  State 
University  in  Atlanta  Georgia.  Since  then,  the 
society  has  chartered  256  chapters  in  the  United 
States,  and  31  in  other  countries. 


Each  of  the  one  hundred  and  eighty  two 
students  that  were  inducted  into  the  honor  society 
now  hold  lifetime  memberships  and  will  benefit 
from  the  many  advantages  that  Golden  Key 
offers.  Benefits  include  scholarships,  awards, 
conventions,  internship  and  employment 
opportunities,  and  a  mark  of  distinction 
recognized  by  graduate  schools  and  employers.

UMD  has  had  its  share  of  Greeks.  But

eta  Theta  Pi 

Written  by  Jessica  Andrews 


When  Ryan  Potter  first  came  to 
UMass  Dartmouth,  he  never  thought 
that  he  would  be  joining  a  fraternity. 
But  there  he  found  himself,  one  month 
into  his  freshman  year,  part  of  the 
UMD  Lacrosse  team  and  accepting  an  * 
invitation  to  pledge  Beta  Theta  Pi,  a 
relatively  new  fraternity  at  UMD. 

Pledging  is  a  part  of  every  fra- 
ternity. It  allows  the  fraternity  broth- 
ers to  get  to  know  prospective  mem- 
bers.   Although  every  fraternity  has 
different  specifics,  there  are  general 
similarities  of  pledging.   First,  when 
you  least  expect  it,  a  few  of  the  broth- 
ers will  come  up  to  you  and  give  you 
an  invitation  to  join  (a  bid),  tell  you  a 
little  bit  about  the  history,  and  talk  to 
you  about  joining.  They  allow  you  a 
period  of  time  to  accept.  Prior  to  ac- 
cepting the  bid,  there  are  certain  meet- 
ings and  social  events  that  you  have  to 
attend  which  allow  you  to  get  to  know 
the  brothers. 

Potter  decided  to  join  Beta 
Theta  Pi  with  mixed  feelings.  At  first 
he  thought  that,  "everyone  says  frats 
are  stupid."  The  first  time  he  was  in- 
vited to  join  he  did  not  accept  right 
«way.  He  was  convinced  to  join  by 
veral  lacrosse  teammates  who  were 
also  pledging. 

When  asked  what  his  expec- 
tations were  from  the  fraternity,  he 
smiled  and  said,  "Free  beer.  No  seri- 
ously, it's  like  a  family  away  from 
home.  No  one  talks  about  each  other, 
everyone  respects  a  brothers  friends 
and  girlfriends. 


It's -about  respect,  honesty  and  com 
mon  courtesy.*' 

According  to  Potter,  pledg 
events  all  had  a  fun  aspect  to  them. 
There  were  parties,  such  as  the  70" 
parly,  and  a  Halloween  party,  botl 
where  everyone  came  dressed  in  cos 
tume.  Theie  were  also  several  hikin; 
trips  and  the  annual  hayride.  When 
asked  what  he  expected  to  give  back 
to  the  fraternity,  he  responded,  "Time. 
I'll  share  my  knowledge  with  others 
to  come." 

Before  any  formal  pledging 
starts  each  pledge  has  an  idea  in  his 
head  about  how  everything  is  going  to 
be.  Formal  pledging  in  a  fraternity  is 
basically  a  trial  period,  a  time  when  the 
prospective  member  familiarizes  him- 
self with  the  histories  and  traditions  ot 
the  fraternity.  Ryan  Potter  was  no  dif- 
ferent. When  asked  what  he  expected, 
he  said,  "a  lot  more  partying,  a  lot  less 
studying.  There  is  a  lot  more  Beta 
knowledge  stuff  than  I  thought.  I  never  I 
thought  that  I'd  be  studying  for  tests. 
It's  like  class,  but  more  interesting. 
Well,  good  to  know  at  least." 

How  have  things  changed  for 
Potter  since  he  joined  Beta  Theta  Pi? 
"Academically  everything's  fine. 
They  really  push  with  the  grades. 
That's  important.  Socially  it's  great. 
You  meet  so  many  people,"  Potter  said. 
Part  of  any  fraternal  pledging 
process  is  the  big  brother/little  brother 
relationship.  A  big  brother  is  a  cur- 
rent member  of  the  fraternity  that  you 
are  pledging.   Each  pledge  has  a  big 


Dioiner.  vviicn  aMwu  about  his  big 
brother  Potter  smiled  and  said,  "that 
would  be  my  big  goofy  big  brother 
Doug  Rand...  It's  kinda  corny.  He 
looks  after  me,  just  like  a  big  brother." 
Potter  feels  like  he  was  doing  something 
worthwhile.  "I'd  like  to  be  able  to  say 
that  I'm  an  alumni.  I'll  always  be  a 
Beta,"  said  Potter,  "you  get  respect  from 
others  Betas,  and  there's  a  lot  of  us.  It 
helps  with  connections  later  in  life.  It 
looks  good  on  work  resumes.  Well  it 
depends  where  you  work.  You're  part 
of  something  big.  Real  big."

Fading 

lota  Phi  Theta 


No  photos 


Written  by  Kristen  Regan 

The  most  elusive  of  the  Greek 
organizations  on  campus  would  be  Iota 
Phi  Theta.  Their  motto  of  "Don't  rest 
on  tradition,  try  to  make  your  own," 
certainly  sets  the  group  apart  from  oth- 
ers. Will  Plummer,  junior,  explained 
the  workings  of  his  fraternity. 

The  UMass  Dartmouth  chap- 
ter of  Iota  Phi  Theta  has  only  three 
members  but  they  keep  the  fraternity 
going.  Plummer,  Rob  Cardoza,  senior, 
and  Jerry  Halfhide,  the  freshmen  class 
president  are  this  years  members.  Last 
year  Cardoza  ran  the  chapter  by  him- 
self. He  built  it  up  and  "kept  it  going," 
Plummer  said.  Iota  Phi  Theta  does  not 
have  a  rush  period  common  in  other 
Greek  organizations  to  attract  new 
members.  In  fact  Iota  does  not  adver- 
tise their  fraternity  at  all.  Those  who 
are  interested  in  pledging  must  come 
to  them,  Plummer  explained.  This  past 


year  they  had  two  pledges.  A  major 
part  of  their  pledging  ft  learning  about 
the  history  of  Iota. 

In  1987,  the  UMass  chapter 
was  founded  by  four  students.  Iota  has 
never  been  particularly  large  in  com- 
parison to  the  other  fraternities  on  cam- 
pus. They  have  been  able  to  remair 
because  of  the  contacts  they  have  with 
their  alumni.  At  Northeastern  Univer- 
sity, many  Iota  Phi  Theta  chapters  met 
for  a  step  show  and  the  UMass  Dart- 
mouth chapter  had  100  men  their  to 
support  their  chapter. 

The  brothers  find  that  their 
connections  with  other  Iotas  helps  in 
networking.  "A  lot  of  brothers  have 
good  positions  in  jobs,"  Plummer  said 
This  allows  many  of  the  alumni  to 
make  donations  and  help  keep  the  fra- 
ternity alive.

Being 


Sister 


Phi  Sigma  Sigma 
Sorority 


rritten  by  Kritsen  Regan 


Ask  any  girl  in  the  sorority  Phi 
pna  Sigma  about  sisterhood  and 
y  will  all  explain  it  as  an  indescrib- 
e  bond.  "You  can  not  define  what 
.  [it  is  something]  that  you  can  not 
share  with  just  anybody,"  said  sopho- 
">re  Erica  Long.  Nikki  Gounaris,  also 
iphomore,  agreed  and  described  it 
.  "closer  bond  than  friendships.  You 
)w  that  you  will  keep  in  contact 
h  these  people  forever.1' 

These  girls  are  as  committed 
to  each  other  as  they  are  to  philan- 
py  and  the  betterment  of  all  wo- 
men. President  Amanda  Stenquist,  jun- 
ior, feels  that  an  all  women's  group  like 
theirs  helps  to  create  a  stronger  mo- 
rale, more  of  an  "I  can  do  it"  feeling. 
Stenquist  feels  that  sisterhood  allows 
the  women  to  donate  their  money  and 
time  to  worthwhile  causes,  such  as  the 
walk  for  breast  cancer  held  in  Boston. 
Participating  in  activities  such  as  this 
event,  brings  the  women  together  out- 
side of  their  weekly  meetings. 

"Yeah  we  pay  dues  [but  there 
is]  a  deeper  bond,"  Stenquist  said.  The 
girls  create  links  with  people  whom 
they  otherwise  may  not  have  known. 
Coming  into  Phi  Sigma  Sigma,  you 
gain  forty  friends.  In  an  all  women's 
society  there  is  a  "platform  of  like 
minds,"  Stenquist  said.  The  benefits  of 


the  sorority  are  the  development  of 
public  speaking  skills  and  money  man- 
agement. The  group  also  helps  indi- 
viduals to  open  up  and  stand  out.  The 
girls  become  participants  rather  than 
observers. 

Phi  Sigma  Sigma  may  have 
many  of  the  same  goals  as  other  so- 
rorities, but  their  methods  are  differ- 
ent. They  are  a  philanthropic  group, 
and  look  towards  the  community  to 
help  out.  They  inspire  one  another  in 
many  ways.  The  sorority  has  a  com- 
bined GPA  of  3.17,  which  is  above  the 
University's  women's  average  of  2.7. 
This  sort  of  achievement  helps  to  cre- 
ate a  healthy  competition  between 
them  and  the  other  Greek  organizations 
on  campus. 

The  small  size  of  UMass'  Phi 
Sig  chapter  helps  to  bring  the  girls 
closer  together.  Stenquist  said  "I  am 
the  president,  I  will  have 
leadership. ..shows  you  have  the  skill 
for  management." 

Being  a  Phi  Sig  member,  cre- 
ates a  lifelong  bond  and  the  members 
are  linked  to  other  Phi  Sig  chapters. 
These  women  graduate  as  strong  as- 
sertive leaders  ready  to  blaze  the 
trails  ahead.  With  the  backing  of  forty 
other  women,  this  is  proof  that  sister- 
hood is  really  power.

Sigma  Tau  Gamma 
Fraturnity 


itten  by  Jessica  Andrews  and  Nathan  Takvorian 


Sigma  Tau  Gamma  Fraternity 
1  founded  on  the  UM ass  Dartmouth 
mpus  on  October  23,  1995.  It  is  a 
cial  fraternity,  which  focuses  on 
immunity  service  and  academics.  Sig 
Tau  has  participated  in  a  number  of 
school  events  such  as  "Take  Back  the 
;ght,"  a  march  around  the  UMass 
mpus  to  promote  awareness  of  the 
istence  of  abuse  towards  women,  the 
liday  Christmas  party,  as  well  and 
assisting  in  setting  up  for  numerous 
campus  events.  They  have  participated 
in  community  events  and  services  such 
as  Adopt  a  Highway  and  the 
S.H.A.R.E.  (The  Society  For  Human 
Advancement  Through  Rehabilitation 
Engineering)  Fun  Walk,  a  fundraiser 
to  offset  the  costs  of  building  adaptive 
computer  devices  for  the  members  of 
the  society  who  are  physically  dis- 
abled, as  well  as  Christmas  in  April, 
an  organization  that  helps  people  in 
desperate  need  of  a  home. 

Brotherhood  is  an  intrinsic 
part  of  any  fraternity.  Brotherhood,  as 
described  by  Mike  Kwiatkowski, 


Sigma  Tau  Gamma  Vice-President,  "is 
the  coming  together  of  men 
with  similar  interests  and  ideas,  men 
who  can  meet  at  any  time,  and  who 
have  the  ability  to  understand  one  an- 
other and  have  a  bond  with  one  another 
in  a  way  not  unlike  that  of  a  brother." 
To  promote  brotherhood,  the  members 
of  Sig  Tau  have  events  away  from 
school  such  as  movie  nights,  Red  Sox 
trips,  concert  trips,  and  canoe  trips. 
Off-campus  living  is  another  way  to 
advocate  brotherhood,  for  they  are  liv- 
ing as  small  family  units  and  they  have 
to  learn  to  rely  on  each  other  as  a  fam- 
ily would.  This  takes  a  lot  of  teamwork 
on  a  day-to-day  basis. 

Sigma  Tau  Gamma  President 
Nathan  Takvorian  said,  "  We,  Sigma 
Tau  Gamma,  help  our  members  and 
our  school  in  the  fulfillment  of  obliga- 
tions to  school,  state,  and  church.  We 
are  very  grateful  to  be  a  part  of  the 
UMD  family  and  hope  to  continue  out 
tradition  here  at  the  University  of  Mas- 
sachusetts Dartmouth."

From  aviation  to  student  government, 
UMass  has  quite  a  selection  of  student  clubs  and 
organizations.  With  over  1 00  groups,  its  hard  not 
to  find  something  that  suits  everyone. 

Being  in  a  club  helps  to  heighten  the 
college  experience,  adding  more  responsibility 
to  a  workload,  and  ideally  making  students  more 
versatile.  This  is  the  students  chance  to  give  back 
to  the  University.  They  meet  new  people,  and 
make  lasting  friendships  witrrthose  who  have 
similar  interests  and  goals.  Jk

Women's  Volleyball 

Setting    the 

Game 


Newcomers  Skill  Adds 
Strength  to  Team 


Written  by  Jessica  Andrews 

Coming  into  a  new  school  as 
a  freshman  is  not  easy,  but  joining  a 
sport  or  some  activities  can  help  in 
adjusting  to  your  new  lifestyle.  It  helps 
to  join  an  activity  where  you  have  fun, 
and  fun  is  exactly  the  word  to  describe 
the  UMass  Dartmouth  Corsair 
Women's  Volleyball  team. 

Upon  walking  into  the  game 
a  spectator  is  immediately  drawn  to  the 
faces  of  these  young  women.  Each  one 
has  a  smile  during  warm-ups  where 
they  practice  serving,  hitting  the  ball 
back  and  forth,  and  saving  the  ball 
from  hitting  the  floor. 

During  the  game,  each  player 
has  a  look  of  fierce  determination.  The 
skillful  performance  of  each  player  is 
just  as  compelling  as  the  look  of  how 
much  fun  they  are  having.  They  truly 
look  as  if  they  are  enjoying  themselves. 
Coach  Rick  Quintin,  in  his  third  sea- 
son of  coaching,  said,  "we've  got  a  lot 
of  depth  and  we've  gained  a  lot  of  ex- 
perience. I  think  we're  ready  to  move 
up  the  ladder."  This  ladder  that  he  is 
speaking  of  is  the  ladder  within  the 
Little  East  Conference,  or  LEC.  They 
came  off  of  the  1999  season  with  17 
wins  and  20  losses.  However,  they 
have  gotten  better  with  a  combination 


of  great  coaching,  strong  returning 
players  and  strong  incoming  players. 

In  particular  this  year,  the 
women's  volleyball  team  was  looking 
for  a  player  to  take  the  setter  position. 
The  setter  position  in  volleyball  is  the 
person  who  sets  the  shot  up  so  that  a 
person  in  the  hitter  position  can  hit  the 
ball  over  the  net.  With  the  incoming 
freshman  players  there  was  found  to 
be  two  important  players  who,  during 
high  school,  had  extensive  experience 
in  this  position.  These  players  were 
freshmen  Rayna  Kenney,  from 
Lakeville,  MA,  and  Hillary  Dorgan, 
from  Fairhaven,  MA,  and  both  turned 
out  to  be  key  players  in  the  LEC  dur- 
ing 1999.  Both  players  were  retrained 
from  their  high  school  setting  systems 
and  trained  to  have  a  certain  relation- 
ship with  the  hitters  on  the  team. 

Quintin  had  nothing  but  nice 
things  to  say  about  the  UMD  women's 
volleyball  team.  "This  was  the  most 
dedicated  bunch  of  women  we've  had 
at  UMass  Dartmouth  since  I've  been 
here,"  Quintin  said.  He  also  thinks  that 
with  continued  hard  work,  and  the  con- 
tinuing trend  of  strong  first-time  play- 
ers, the  women's  volleyball  team  will 
continue  to  rise  in  the  ranks  of  the  LEC.

Corsair's  Must  Rebuild  After  3-7 

Season  Finish 


Written  by  Dino  Di  Pasquale 

In  his  tenth  season  as  head  coach, 
Bill  Kavanaugh  was  facing  a  tough  re- 
building year.  Though  he  had  eight  re- 
turning starters,  many  key  players  were 
gone  from  last  season.  Coach 
Kavanaugh  has  a  reputation  for  having 
just  enough  to  build  around  for 
the  next  season.  However,  af- 
ter three  consecutive  8-2  sea- 
sons, the  Corsairs  finished 
the  season  with  a  3-7  record. 

Junior  quarterback 
Matt  McLaughlin  saw  limited 
action  last  year  but  finally  got 
his  chance  to  shine  this  season. 
He  completed  69  of  128  passes 
and  threw  for  a  total  of  874  yards 
including  five  touchdowns. 

The  Corsair's  running  game

was  lead  by  Frank  Meranda.  The  jun- 
ior running  back  rushed  for  1228  yards 
on  262  carries.  He  also  led  the  team  in 
scoring  with  10  touchdowns.  "It  was  a 
disappointing  season,"  admits 
Meranda.  "We  have  a  lot  of  talent,  but 
there  were  too  many  guys  who  were 
new  to  the  program.  Everyone's  re- 
turning next  season  so  we  should 
be  more  solid." 

Rebuilding  a  team  is  the 
hardest  thing  to  do  in  any  sport. 
It  takes  a  lot  of  time,  patience, 
and  hard  work  to  return  to  cham- 
pionship  form.  If  Coach 
Kavanaugh' s  reputation  holds 
true,  the  team  will  be  back  on  top  of 
the  New  England  Football  Conference 
in  the  near  future.

Men's  Soccer

The  Only  Way  to  Get  Better  is  to  be 
Dedicated  and  a  lot  of  Practice 


Written  by  Jess  Andrews 

Getting  beaten  up  is  no  fun,  un- 
less you  happen  to  be  playing  soccer.  It's 
all  part  of  the  game.  To  be  a  good  team, 
you  have  to  give  100%  of  your  mind  and 
body,  to  destroy  all  obstructions  that 
get  in  your  way. 

The  men's  soccer  team  av- 
erages three  games  and  three  prac- 
tices a  week,  with  Sundays  off. 
During  the  two  and  a  half  to  three 
hour  practices  there  is  a  series  of 
thoroughly  grueling  exercises, 
with  warm-ups,  stretching,  a  few 
laps  and  some  drills.  The  team 
must  then    work  on  strategies, 
passing,  and  kicking. 

Before  the  games  they 
have  abbreviated  practices,  to  get 
the  body  warmed  up  and  limber,  but  also      volves  hard  work,  desire,  a  passion  to 
to  run  through  a  few  passing,  kicking,      win,  and  a  true  love  for  the  sport."

and  blocking  drills  to  get  the  players  in 
the  right  mindset. 

The  players  are  very  dedicated, 
even  during  the  offseason.  Players  have 
to  keep  their  bodies  in  peak  physical  con- 
dition. They  have  a  weight  training  pro- 
gram, and  must  run  every  day. 
Although  the  Corsairs 
men's  soccer  team  may  not 
have  won  every  single  game, 
the  team  worked  hard  to  meet 
the  challenges  brought  be- 
fore them,  showing  a  great 
deal  of  determination  to  get 
the  win.

Women's  Soccer 

Love   of   the   Game 

Goalie  Jenn  Nelson  grew 
up  loving  the  game  of 
soccer  at  a  young  age. 


Written  by  Pam  Albert 

"I've  always  enjoyed  [soccer]. 
It's  been  in  my  family  for  years,"  says 
Jenn  Nelson,  a  junior  and  UMD's 
women's  soccer  goalie.  A  Business 
Information    Systems    major. 
Nelson  has  been  playing  soccer 
since  the  age  of  six,  and  grew  up 
loving  soccer  as  much  as  her 
brothers  did. 

A  goalie  since  she  at- 
tended Arlington  Catholic  High    niustartion  by 


Nelson' s  hardest  year  mentally  was 
her  freshmen  year,  the  1997  season.  As 
a  freshmen,  it  takes  time  to  adjust 
to  the  tough  practices  and  a  dif- 
ferent style  of  coaching. 

Nelson's  most  victorious 
memory  is  from  this  past  sea- 
son    when     UMD     played 
Bowdoin  College.  Although 
UMD  lost  one  to  zero,  a  great 
sense  of  accomplishment  was  felt 
School  in  Arlington,  MA,  Nelson    Amanda  Stent»uist     by  the  team.  The  women's  soc- 


believes  a  few  qualities  are  necessary  in 
creating  a  strong  goalie.  A  goalie  needs 
to  have  "A  sense  of  the  game  and  antici- 
pate a  lot."  He  or  she  has  "To  see  the 
field  as  a  whole,  not  just  your  area." 
Being  "Vocal"  is  also  necessary,  because 
goalies  are  unable  to  move  from  their 
designated  area  and  are  required  to  yell 
to  the  defensive  players,  informing  them 
of  where  to  move  on  the  field  in  order  to 
keep  the  ball  out  of  the  goal. 

Physically,  Nelson's  most  difficult 
year  as  goalie  was  her  sophomore  year, 
the  1998  season.  "I  was  accident  prone" 
she  comments.  She  suffered  various  in- 
juries, including  "A  knee  problem,  which 
went  away,  then  a  hand  problem,"  which 
also  went  away.  The  worst  injury  that 
Nelson  has  suffered  was  a  separated 
shoulder  that  occurred  at  the  end  of  her 
second  season.  Due  to  the  extremeness 
of  her  pain,  it  was  very  difficult  to  play 
during  the  last  game. 


cer  team  played  their  hardest  and  in  their 
minds,  achieved  victory  by  keeping  a  na- 
tionally ranked  team  within  a  goal. 

Between  schoolwork  and  soccer, 
Nelson  manages  to  find  time  to  enjoy 
other  things  in  her  life;  however,  it's  dif- 
ficult achieving  a  balance  between  aca- 
demics, athletics  and  everyday  life.  "You 
have  to  be  determined  and  have  a  good 
mind  set.  You  have  to  try  to  focus  when 
you're  tired  and  [sometimes  you]  have  to 
pull  all-nighters." 

Nelson  is  delighted  at  the  degree 
to  which  women's  soccer  has  grown 
since  she  was  a  child.  "Women  are  now 
getting  more  involved  [in  sports]."  Also, 
the  number  of  sports  involving  females 
continues  to  grow.  Sports,  such  as  ice 
hockey,  once  dominated  by  males,  are 
now  allowing  females  to  play.  Nelson  is 
excited  and  hopes  for  these  trends  to  con- 
tinue into  the  next  century.

Field  Hockey 

Only    the    Strong 

Survive 

Wearing  Plaid  Skirts  dosen't 

Prevent  these  Girls  from  Being 

Rough  With  Opponents 


Written  by  Rebecca  Mattson 

Coach  Marilyn  Ritz  takes 
offense  to  anyone  insinuating  that 
her  field  hockey  team  lacks  tough 
ness  just  because  they  happen  to 
wear  skirts  on  the  field.  She 
explains  that  the  skirts  may 
"maintain  feminine  appearance" 
on  the  field,  but  the  girls  are 
anything  but  stereotypical 
females. 

"If  you  don't 
believe  women  are  strong, 
brave,  determined,  and 
fiercely  competitive,  you  don't 
know  any  field  hockey  player,"  Ritz 
said. 

In  her  16th  season,  Ritz  led 
a  tough  Corsairs  team  to  a  return  to 
the  Little  East  Conference  (LEC) 
Tournament.  Senior  captains 
Rebecca  Chase  and  Erin  McHugh, 
along  with  junior  captain  Jennifer 
McGuiness  were  the  backbone  of  a 
team  that  started  the  season  with  1 3 
returning  players,  nine  of  which 
were  returning  starters. 

The  Corsairs  hung  on  in 
several  tough  games  this  season  on 
their  way  to  a  9-10  record  with  an 
impressive  3-1  record  in  the  LEC. 
Despite  all  the  success  the  team  has 
had  this  year  and  last,  they  do  not 
get  the  recognition  that  Ritz  and  her 
team  feels  that  they  deserve. 

"At  homecoming  it  was

disappointing  to  see  all  the  balloons 
around  the  football  field,"  sopho- 
more Jennifer  Burrows  said. 
The  year  before  their 
field  was  also  decorated  in 
addition  to  the  football  field. 
This  helped  to  boost  the 
girls  spirit,  and  really  got 
them  pumped  about 
Homecoming  and  their 
game.  This  year,  they 
were  left  out  of  the  field 
decorations. 
Even  with  the  lack  of 
respect  that  the  girls  feel  on  campus 
they  still  played  tough  and  hung  on 
is  several  difficult  situations.  One 
such  game  came  against  Babson  on 
October  14.  Babson  struck  first 
when  Lynn  Johnson  scored  a  goal 
assisted  by  Eliza  Hall  1 1:33  into  the 
game.  The  next  twenty  minutes 
proved  to  be  a  hard  fought  defen- 
sive battle,  but  the  Corsairs  refused 
to  give  up.  UMD  finally  evened  the 
score  when  senior  Ashley  Dorman 
knocked  it  in  off  a  feed  from  Fresh- 
men Erin  Dziedzic.  The  sudden 
death  overtime  period  is  when  the 
corsairs  showed  their  fans  and 
opponents  what  they  were  made  of. 
Just  two  minutes  and  40  seconds 
into  the  period  Freshmen  Erin 
McDonald  earned  UMD  the  sweet 
victory.  She  banged  in  the  goal  off 
an  assist  from  Dorman. 

McGuinness  believes  that 
this  season  is  a  "great  display  of 
what  the  team  has  done.  Everyone 
was  really  dedicated  to  each  other."

They  finished  better  than  ex- 
pected, senior  runner  Pat  Gallagher  said 
of  the  men's  cross  country  team.  Despite 
the  young  team's  injuries,  many  of  the 
runners  maintained  a  competitive  edge  in 
their  performance  at  meets. 

Gallagher    had 
tedonitis,  which  healed  over  the 
summer  enabling  him  to  run  for 
the  season.  Of  the  4  freshmen  on 
the  team  2  were  hurt  and  missed 
half  the  season  due  to  injury. 
Freshman  recruit,  Josh  Nelson 
had  shin  problems,  sophomore 
Brian  Akeley  started  strong 
and  then  developed  hip  prob- 
lems, and  freshman  Matt 
McDonald  also  had  a  stress  fracture  in 
his  leg. 

We  "weren't  dealt  the  right  cards 
this  season"  Gallagher  said.  Without  the 
runners,  they  weren't  able  to  do  as  well 
as  they  should  have.  New  England  cross- 
country is  the  best  in  the  country, 
Gallagher  said.  An  experienced  runner  of 
8  years,  Gallagher's  best  time  was  27:32 
this  season. 

Cross-country  is  and  isn't  an  in- 
dividualized sport.  Your  only  as  good  as 
your  best  runner,  Gallagher  said  and  "you 
want  to  make  the  gap  as  small  as  pos- 
sible," with  your  time.  As  a  team  they  had 
to  push  one  another.  When  motivation 
was  low  they  had  to  "fire  it  back  up,"  and 
"do  a  little  head  banging,"  Gallagher  said. 
As  the  season  ended  two  of  the  freshmen 


runners,   Jeremy   Nute   and   Ryan 

Wilhelmi,  ranked  in  the  top  five  for  the 

team.  The  regional  meet  was  the  final 

meet  and  it  was  "refreshing  to  have  it  at 

home"  junior  captain,  Jeff  Reed  said. 

As  the  captain  Reed  said  he 

had  to  become  more  responsible,  and 

keep  the  team  motivated  and  make 

sure  that  they  were  rested  for  their 

Sunday  morning  runs.  Assistant 

Coach  Joe  McCarthy  really  led 

the  men's  team.  Reed  enjoyed 

working  with  Head  Coach  Jon 

Hird,  who  really  "knows  what  he 

is  talking  about. 

The  competition  was 
"much  stronger  than  it  has  been," 
Reed  said.  Regionally,  there  were  many 
strong  teams,  which  made  many  chal- 
lenges for  the  young  UMass  team.  It 
made  the  men  "work  a  lot  harder  for 
your  place,"  Reed  said.  Reed  was 
UMD's  number  1  runner.  Reed  felt 
pressure  from  Gallagher  who  came  in  a 
close  second  behind  him. 

For  Reed  running  in  college  has 
been  a  challenging  experience.  He  got 
blown  away  his  freshmen  year.  A  run- 
ner since  sophomore  year  in  High 
school,  he  said  the  "day  does  not  feel 
complete  without  a  run  at  the  gym." 
Reed's  finished  the  season  with  his  best 
time  at  26:45,  a  respectable,  competi- 
tive time.  "A  lot  of  talented  guys,"  make

Women's  Cross  Country 

Going  the  Extra  Mile 

Hird  tries  to  win  the  LEC  with  a 
very  young  team 


Written  by  Kristen  Regan 

Coach  Jon  Hird  spoke  proudly 
of  his  women's  cross-country  team. 
With  only  one  returning  runner,  junior 
Jackie  Gorski,  who  came  back  running 
fifth  on  the  team,  and  four  newcomers 
with  no  experience,  "it  was  a  little  rough 
at  the  start,"  Hird  said.  With  their 
determination  they  finished  fourth 
overall  at  the  Little  East  Conference      ^ 
(LEC).  "Against  all  odds  they 
turned  out  to  be  a  really  good  rac- 
ing team,"  Hird  said. 

"This  is  the  most  difficult 
region  in  the  country,"  Hird  said. 
"I  like  to  think  that  they  are  al-  & 

ways  determined,"  Hird  said  of     Amanda  stenquist     a^y  g°°d  team  with  three  new

did  it.  The  "toughest  thing  was  starting," 
Marguarida  said. 

Newcomer,     junior      Beth 
Figueiredo  had  run  in  high  school,  and 
did  not  find  much  of  a  difference  be- 
tween high  school  and  college  running. 
Only  that  the  "people  are  a  lot  more 
serious."  For  Figueiredo,  Hird  was  a 
really  tough  coach,  and  pushed  her 
\    and  her  teammates.  "If  you  have 
problems,  he'll  help,"  she  said,  and 
in  return  that  made  her  determined  to 
meet  Hird's  expectations.  "He  makes 
you  want  to,"  Figueiredo  said.  She 
also  thought  that  they  had  a  re- 


his  women's    team.  The  major 
focus  of  the  season  was  on  the  (LEC) 
meet  and  the  New  England  Regional 
meet,  which  was  hosted  at  UMD  on 
Nov.  13. 

Freshman  Sarah  Marguarida 
"didn't  have  any  idea  what  to  expect." 
When  she  began  the  season  she  wasn't 
really  trying  to  win,  just  improve.  She 
made  her  best  time  in  the  New  England 
Regional  meet,  with  20:58  in  the  3K 
race.  For  her,  Hird  was  "a  good  moti- 
vator." At  first  she  felt  that  she  could 
not  run  with  everyone  else,  but  her  ef- 
fort paid  off,  and  she  gained  confidence. 
She  felt  that  if  everyone  else  could  bal- 
ance school  and  sports  then  so  could 
she.  Marguarida  was  really  glad  that  she 


girls  and  four  beginners. 
"We've  all  been  running  in  high  school 
and  on  our  own,"  Figueiredo  said. 

The  main  focus  for  the  girls  was 
to  "catch  the  girl  in  front  of  you  and  get 
your  best  time,"  Figueiredo  said.  The 
women  used  one  another  as  motivation, 
and  pushed  themselves. 

When  they  got  together  they  ran 
faster,  and  better,  as  they  tried  to  keep 
up  with  each  other.  The  central  goal  of 
the  team  seemed  to  be  to  get  a  lot  better 
and  work  together  to  achieve  their  goals. 
By  working  together  the  girls  got  a  lot 
better  at  running,  and  "you  push  your- 
self a  lot  harder,"  Figueiredo  said.  This 
made  for  a  successful  season  of  which 
the  girls  should  be  proud.

Women's  Tennis 


Champions 
Lose    Reign  : 

Individuals  Achieve 
Excellence 


Written  by  Becky  Mattson 

The  start  of  any  season  is 
stressful  and  exciting,  but  was  doubly 
so  for  the  UMass  Dartmouth  women's 
tennis  team  this  year.  For  the  first  time 
in  many  seasons,  coach  Warren  Preti 
would  not  be  leading  the  team;  he  had 
passed  the  reins  to  coach  Ralph  Perry. 

In  addition,  Perry  has  the 
added  pressure  of  taking  over  a  pro- 
gram that  was  on  the  top  and  had  no 
where  to  go  but  down.  The  Corsairs 
were  the  current  Little  East  Conference 
(LEC)  champions.  Perry  had  three 
former  LEC  champions  returning,  but 
still  had  his  work  cut  out  for  him  to 
fill  key  positions. 

Leading  the  way  for  UMass 
Dartmouth  was  one  such  veteran,  se- 
nior captain  Mary  Bourque.  The  Cor- 
sairs' captain  finished  with  an  8-0 
record  in  LEC  competition  during  the 


season  and  finished  her  four-year  ca- 
reer with  the  Corsairs  by  with  a  9-3 
record  in  singles  and  a  6-4  record  in 
doubles  competition.  At  UMass, 
Bourque  won  a  total  of  six  LEC  cham- 
pionships. 

Sophomore  Dana  Feinstein 
was  one  player  who  stepped  up  to  fill 
a  hole  left  by  a  graduate  last  season.  In 
her  first  season  in  the  starting  line-up, 
Feinstein  posted  an  8-5  record  in  single 
and  4-3  in  doubles. 

Despite  these  excellent  indi- 
vidual performances,  the  Corsairs  were 
not  able  to  extend  their  LEC  champi- 
onship season  to  its  fourth  season.  The 
team  finished  third  and  had  an  overall 
record  of  7-6.  Bourque  was  the  only 
Corsair  to  win  an  LEC  championship 
in  the  tournament.

Cheerleading 

Same    Spirit,   Fewer 

People 

Even  Cheerleaders  are  Entitled  to 
a  Rebuilding  Year 


Written  by  Dino  Di  Pasquale 

I  know  what  you're  thinking, 
and  I  didn't  think  it  necessary  myself. 
"Cheerleaders"  and  "rebuilding  year" 
are  rarely  mentioned  in  the  same  sen- 
tence. But  UMD's  squad  had  to  over 
come  a  few  obstacles  this  past  year  and 
consequently  did  not  go  to  the  2000 
National  Competition. 

As  suggested  in  the  title, 
the  squad  was  hindered  by  its 
smaller  roster.  During  the  course 
of  the  year,  several  cheerleaders 
left  the  team,  and  at  a  great  cost. 
"We  didn't  have  enough  people 
to  qualify  for  Nationals,"  said 


Another  big  change  the  cheer- 
leaders had  to  endure  was  replacing 
Head  Coach  Cabral.  Former  Assistant 
Coach  Janice  Cardoza  stepped  up  to  fill 
in  the  position.  However,  Cardoza  will 
be  replaced  next  year  by  a  person  yet 
to  be  named. 

Through  it  all,  the  squad  re- 
mains optimistic.  They've  dedi- 
cated themselves  to  once  again  ris- 
ing  as   a  championship   team. 
"Everybody's  focused  on  next 
year,"  LeGacy  said,  "everyone 
wants  to  go  back  to  Nationals." 
Though  they  did  not  defend  their 
title  this  past  year,  they  look  to 


Junior  Co-captain  Mandy      niustartion  by 

LeGacy.  "But  we  just  kept  go-     Amanda  Stenfiuist    regain  it  in  200 1 

ing,  maintaining  a  championship 

attitude."

Men's  Swimming  &  Diving 

Strength    Comes 
In    Numbers 

Diving  team  takes  true  dedication 

to  perfection 


Written  by  Kristen  Regan 

Effort  and  dedication  are  the  in- 
gredients necessary  to  be  successful  at  div- 
ing. "It's  a  lot  of  fun,  [you]  always  have 
to  push  your  body  further  than  you  think 
it  can  go,"  junior  diving  captain  Jeff  Garza 
said. 

This  is  Garza's 
second  year  on  the 
men's  diving  team.  He 

and   freshmen   Devin  johnPereira 

O'Brien  make  up  the  team.  Garza, 
is  co-captain,  along  with  senior  Andy 
Rogers,  the  men's  swimming  captain,  has 
developed  a  true  love  of  the  sport. 

When  Garza  first  learned  to  dive, 
he  started  with  basic  flip  twist  dives.  "It's 
such  an  incredible  feeling,  it  feels  so  good; 
so  crisp  and  clean,"  said  Garza. 

Diving  is  a  "very  mental  sport, 
you  have  to  be  very  focused  to  concen- 
trate," Garza  said.  Eighty  percent  of  div- 


ing is  mental,  and  with  the  help  of  Coach 
Jerry  Jennings,  the  divers  were  really  able 
to  meet  their  potential. 

"This  year  I  had  a  basis,"  said 
Garza,  "I  was  the  only  one  returning." 
When  the  New  England  Re- 
gional Championships 
came,  he  was  prepared. 
"I  was  more  nervous 
than  ex-cited,"  Garza  said.  He 
had  been  preparing  two  big 
dives  for  the  meet.  He  and  O'Brien  both 
qualified  for  New  England's.  While  prac- 
ticing, Garza  hit  the  diving  board  for  his 
first  time. 

"It  was  more  of  a  shock  if  any- 
thing," Garza  said,  about  hitting  the 
board.  Most  divers  at  some  point  do  hit 
the  board.  The  diving  boards  give  a  lot, 
even  after  a  diver  does  hit  them.

Women's 
Swimming    and 
Diving 


Written  by  Kristen  Regan 

Junior  co-captain,  Mary 
MacGregor  of  the  women's  swim- 
ming team  had  nothing  but  nice 
things  to  say  about  her  teammates 
of  the  2000  team.  After  a  week  of 
winter  training  in  Acapulco,  Mexico 
the  women's  team  came  back  stron- 
ger and  more  powerful.  They  proved 
their  strength  at 
their  meet  against 
the  Worcester  TTjLf^' 
Poly-technical  In- 
stitute (WPI)  imme- 
diately following  their  return.  Aca- 
pulco was  "warmer  than  Florida," 
MacGregor  said.  The  year  before, 
the  men's  and  women's  teams  spent 
winter  training  in  Coral  Springs, 
Florida  where  it  rained  for  most  of 
the  week,  and  was  chilly.  This  year 
the  men  and  women,  who  train  to- 
gether, "had  a  ball  on  the  training 
trip,"  she  said.  This  enthusiasm  cer- 
tainly carried  over  in  the  women's 
victory  against  WPI. 

The  2000  women's  team 
composed  often  to  twelve  women, 
was  smaller  than  the  previous  year's 
twenty.  This  created  a  disadvantage 
when  competing  against  other  larger 
teams.  "We  didn't  have  the  depth 
to  compete  the  way  we  wanted  to," 
MacGregor  said.  They  were  only 
able  to  put  two  women  in  each 
event,  compared  to  four,  which 
would  have  been  a  more  comfort- 
able number  to  compete  with  in  each 


event.  Bigger  teams  seemed  to  over- 
power the  small  UMass  team,  but  at 
the  same  time  it  drew  the  women 
closer  together  as  a  team.  They  were 
able  to  bond,  and  did  not  get  lost  in  a 
larger  number  of  girls. 

The  team  scored  high  many 
times  this  year,  qualifying  many  of 
the  women  for  the  New 
England  Regional 
championships. 
Amongst  the  swim- 
mers who  competed 
were  Antonia  Cardoza,  junior  co- 
captain;  Jill  Polumbo,  sophomore; 
Diana  Parisi,  sophomore;  and  Jill 
Tereshko,  junior;  and  MacGregor. 
The  girls  were  aided  in  their  achieve- 
ments by  a  new  team  of  coaches  this 
year.  Kathy  Motta,  an  alumna  of 
UMD,  who  holds  the  record  for  the 
200  butterfly,  was  the  head  swim 
coach.  Her  assistants  were  Dave 
Beard  and  Nancy  Kitchen,  both 
alumni  of  UMD,  along  with  student 
coach  Matt  Tweedy. 

Together  they  coached 
"based  on  a  lot  of  experience,  each 
had  swum  a  different  event  [in  com- 
petitions]," MacGregor  said.  The 
men's  team  graduated  a  senior  Andy 
Rogers,  who  also  competed  in  the 
New  England  Regionals.  Support 
from  all  sides  helped  to  make  this  a 
memorable  year  for  the  2000  swim 
team.

Men's  Hockey 

Playing    with 

Skill 

A  Top  Team  Hard  to  Beat 


Written  by  Kristen  Regan 

"Every  week  there  were  guys 
fighting  for  spots  in  the  lineup,"  junior 
graphic  design  major,  Curtis  Levigne 
said.  The  hockey  team  practiced  five 
days  a  week,  skating  for  four  days  at 
New  Bedford's  Hetland  Arena,  and 
spent  the  fifth  day  doing  aerobics  in  the 
gym,  "it's  very  amusing  to  watch,"  Sean 
Young,  sophomore,  business 
administration,  said,  "it's  all 
strange  to  us." 

Headed  by  a  demand- 
ing Coach  John  Rolli,  "we're 
usually  ready  by  the  time  the 
game  starts,"  Young  said. 
There  are  eight  defense  play- 
ers, three  goalies,  and  15  offense  play- 
ers who  dress  for  the  games.  This  leaves 
the  team  with  backup  players  who  are 
needed  at  game  time.  The  hockey  teams 
totals  to  26  players,  a  little  larger  than 
the  average  22  players  common  to  most 
schools. 

"The  team  is  definitely  tight," 
Levigne  said,  "the  whole  team  is  very 
together."  "Any  time  you  are  close  to 
your  teammates  it  makes  playing  fun," 
Young  added. 

The  major  loss  of  the  season  was 
to  Wentworth  Institute  of  Technology  in 
the  semifinals.  "It  was  actually  a  shock, 
how  the  score  was,  we  weren't  playing 
the  best  hockey."  Young  said.  The  final 
game  score  was  9-1 ,  "it  was  not  a  good 
game,  and  a  big  let  down  for  the  team." 
During  the  regular  season  the  team 
played  them  and  had  lost,  but  only  by 
one  point.  "They  scored  2  shorthanded 


goals  on  us  [in  the  beginning],  and 
it  was  all  downhill  from  there," 
Levigne  said  of  the  semifinals. 

"It  definitely  requires  a  lot 
of  skill  to  play  hockey  well," 
Levigne  said.  "Once  you  get  to  the 
level  where  you  would  be 
considered  good,  the  skating  comes 

naturally,"  he  said.  Levigne 

didn't  start  hockey  until  age 
13,  which  is  considered 
late.  "Most  players  have 
played  since  age  four," 
Levigne  said.  Young  has 
been  playing  for  17 
years,  since  the  age  of 
two.  "I  have  three  older  brothers  who 
played,  and  I  got  into  it  sort  of  like 
follow  the  leader,"  Young  said.  East- 
ern Massachusetts  and  Minnesota, 
are  actually  two  of  the  best  hockey 
spots  in  US.  Boston  was  one  of  the 
America's  original  hockey  towns. 

The  team  was  very  young 
this  year,  having  lost  some  key  se- 
nior players.  There  were  ten  sopho- 
mores, and  seven  freshmen.  For  the 
ECAC  Northeast  Region,  UMD  is 
"one  of  the  top  contending  teams." 
UMass  hockey  is  one  of  the  top  four 
teams  in  Division  III.  Young  said, 
"I  enjoy  the  hockey  team,  they're  all 
a  good  bunch  of  guys."  Playing 
amongst  friends  is  one  of  the  teams 
strongest  successes.

Bittersweet 

The  Feeling  by  the  end  of  the 

Season 


Written  by  Jessica  Andrews 

The  1999-2000  UMass  Dart- 
mouth Men's  Basketball  team  captured 
their  1 1th  Little  East  Conference  (LEC) 
regular  season  championship  in  the  13- 
year  history  of  the  conference. 
They  did  however  lose  their 
chance  to  appear  at  the  NCAA 
tournament  by  losing  to  East- 
ern Connecticut  State  Univer- 
sity (EConn)  in  the  second 
round  semi-finals.  The  Cor- 
sairs had  already  won  in  match- 
ups against  EConn  twice  in  the 
regular  season.  Because  of  these  wins, 
and  because  this  loss  was  the  first  loss 
the  Corsairs  had  suffered  at  home,  the 
end  to  their  season  was  bittersweet. 

To  come  so  close  and  not  to  win 
was  heart  breaking  for  the  team.  Fans  of 
the  UMD  Corsairs  basketball  team  be- 
lieve that  overconfidence  and  thinking 
that  they  would  have  an  easy  win,  played 
a  part  in  the  loss.  The  Corsairs  fought 
hard  and  played  a  good  game,  but  EConn 
fought  harder  and  played  a  better  game. 
Sean  Walsh,  a  freshman  on  the  team 
said,  "All  our  hard  work  during  the  sea- 
son came  to  nothing  in  the  end,  except 
for  a  lucky  bid  to  the  ECAC  tourna- 
ment." 

The  lucky  tournament  bid 
Walsh  is  referring  to  is  the  ECAC  New 
England  Division  III  Tournament.  UMD 
won  the  first  quarterfinal  game,  but  was 


eliminated  from  the  tournament  fol- 
lowing a  loss  to  Colby  College, 
which  was  68-66. 

Several  players  stood  out  on 
the  UMD  roster  during  the 
99-00  season,  and  luckily 
for  UMD,  they  will  all  be 
returning  to  play  next  year. 
Marques  Houtman,  a  jun- 
ior guard,  was  the  Corsairs 
top  performer.  He  received 
LEC  first-team  honors,  an 
honorable  mention  at  the 
ECAC  New  England  Division  III 
Tournament,  and  was  named  the 
LEC  Most  Valuable  Player  at  the 
Hampton  Inn  Classic,  which  was 
hosted  by  UMass  at  the  beginning 
of  the  season.  Nick  Cagle,  a  junior 
center,  was  also  a  valuable  asset  to 
the  Corsairs  team.  He  was  a  former 
Rookie  of  the  year,  and  a  1000  point 
scorer  in  his  time  at  UMass,  as  well 
as  a  LEC  second  team  All-star.  Brian 
Cagle,  a  freshman  forward,  was 
named  Rookie  of  the  year,  UMass' 
second  in  three  years.  He  was  also  a 
Hampton  Inn  Classic  All-tourna- 
ment selection.  UMass  only  had  one 
senior  on  the  team  this  year,  Tim 
Ladley,  a  guard.  "Lads  was  there 
when  we  needed  him,"  said  Walsh, 
"He  was  a  great  friend  to  all  of  us."

Having    Fun 

Playing  with  Extra 
Enthusiasm 


Written  by  Kristen  Regan 

"We  didn't  have  a  good  record, 
but  we  had  fun,"  said  senior  co-captain 
Natasha  Silva.  This  year  the  women's 
and  men's  basketball  teams  were  invited 
to  Lisbon,  Portugal,  from  May  29-June 
9.  "They  invited  us  there  because  we  had 
invited  the  National  Portuguese  team  to 
UMass  before,"  said  junior  Melissa 
Gears. 

Gears  transferred  to  UMD  from 
St.  John  Fisher  College,  where  she  had 
also  played.  "I  thought  I  played  well," 
Gears  said,  "I  had  a  fun  season.  It's  more 
relaxed  at  UMass  everyone  got  along. . . 
Everyone  had  a  lot  of  heart. 

In  Portugal  the  girls  played  the 
National  team  "and  they  kicked  our 
butts,"  Gears  said.  Silva  was  only  able 
to  spend  four  days  in  Portugal,  so  she 
could  come  home  for  graduation  cer- 
emonies, but  she  felt  "blessed  to  have 
the  opportunity  to  go."  For  Silva  the 
whole  year  was  great  and  Portugal  was 
the  "icing  on  the  cake." 

The  team  did  have  some  signifi- 
cant victories  "we  beat  the  number  one 
team,"  Silva  said.  The  team  was  young 
this  year  with  only  two  seniors  —  Silva 
and  Becky  Nault.  Nault  couldn't  play  the 
season  due  to  injury,  "but  she  was  there 
to  support  us,"  Gears  said. 


Silva  was  glad  to  play  her  final 
year,  "showing  off  talent  that  the  Lord 
has  blessed  me  with,"  she  said. 

"We  built  a  strong  hold,  we  built 
a  strong  bond,"  Silva  said.  Silva  would 
like  to  thank  her  teammates  and  her 
coaches  -  Lynn  Sheedy,  and  the  two  as- 
sistant coaches  for  having  made  her  year 
so  memorable.

Men's  Indoor  Track 

Part    of    a 
Winning    Team 

Highlights  From  the 
Season 


Written  by  Kristen  Regan 

The  men's  winter  indoor  track 
team  has  a  few  things  to  be  proud  of. 
They  had  many  highlights  in  their  sea- 
son. Dan  Almeida,  from  South 
Attleboro,  MA,  was  the  top  performer 
at  the  annual  Men's  New  England 
Championship  on  February  26,  at  Bos- 
ton University.  Almeida  made  eighth 
place  in  the  triple  jump  with  a  mark  of 
43-10*. 

At  the  New  England  Division 
III  Championships  February  19,  Tim 
Garcia,  from  Fairhaven,  MA,  placed 
fourth  in  the  55  meters  with  a  time  of 
:06.01,  along  with  a  sixth  place  finish 
in  the  long  jump  at  20-7  *.  Ken 
Scanzio,  of  North  Attleboro,  MA  was 
fifth  in  the  high  jump  at  6-3,  and 
Almeida  placed  fifth  in  the  triple  jump. 

Besides  the  championship 
meets  the  team  placed  well  otherwise. 
At  Bates  College,  in  Maine,  Almeida 


gave  a  first  and  second  place  perfor- 
mance, and  Garcia  scored  second  place 
in  both  of  his  events.  The  men  earned 
47  points  total  for  a  fourth  place  team 
finish  in  the  meet. 

Three  men  also  finished  in 
first  place  at  the  Coast  Guard  Invita- 
tional on  January  22.  Garcia  won  the 
long  jump  with  a  leap  of  19-10  *, 
Almeida  won  the  triple  jump  at  42-10 
*,  and  in  the  55  meter  dash  Shane 
Garron,  from  Framingham,  MA,  was 
a  winner  at  :06.71,  and  at  the  200 
meters  with  a  time  of  :23:89.  Overall 
the  men  had  four  individual  first  place 
finishes,  and  placed  third  as  a  team 
with  104  points.

Track 

Teamwork  Drives  the 
Individual 


Written  by  Rebecca  Mattson 


All  the  runners  streak  around  the 
track,  each  trying  to  out-do  the  other. 
The  same  goes  for  the  shot-putters  and 
the  jumpers  in  the  various  events.  De- 
spite this  competitive  individual  drive, 
track  and  field  is  still  a  team  sport  with 
each  member  depending  on  another. 

"Track  and  field  is  an  individual 
sport  with  a  strong  team  character," 
Coach  John  Hird  said.  "Track  and  field 
gets  its  team  character  from  the  fact  that 
everyone  participates — the  really  bad 
along  with  the  really  good;  no  one  sits 
on  the  bench." 

The  most  obvious  aspect  of 
track  and  field  that  forces  the  members 
to  become  a  team  is  the  events  when 
mome  thatn  one  member  participates. 
"Relay  events  obviously  require  the  most 
actual  teamwork,  but  all  events  require 
teamwork  in  practice,  because  everyone 
can  train  harder  when  they  are  in  a  group 
with  common  goal,"  Hird  said. 

Teamwork,  however,  does  not 
need  to  be  so  apparent.  "Teamwork  on  a 
track  team  comes  when  everyone  is  dedi- 
cated to  his  or  her  event,  because  it  is 
when  all  those  individual  events  are 
grouped  together  that  you  have  a  strong 
team  effort,"  Hird  said. 

One  of  the  biggest  benefits  of 
making  track  and  field  a  team  effort  is 


all  the  support  team  members  lend  to 
one  another  during  competition.  "The 
individual  nature  of  the  performances 
means  that  everyone  knows  what  ev- 
eryone did,  and,  because  not  everyone 
is  competing  at  the  same  time,  team 
members  who  are  not  competing  at  a 
particular  moment  can  root  for  those 
who  are,"  Hird  said. 

Erin  McDonald  agrees," 
Teamwork  on  the  team  comes  more 
from  encouragement  than  anything 
else.  We  all  go  to  different  evends  and 
cheer  for  people  competing  in  them." 

Not  only  do  they  provide  en- 
couragement for  teammates  in  other 
events,  they  also  do  so  for  those  in  the 
same  events.  "The  people  in  the  same 
events  offer  eachother  advice," 
McDonald  said. 

Another  big  part  of  teamwork 
is  a  repsect  for  all  of  the  individual  ef- 
forts and  sacrifices  members  make  for 
their  team.  "People  respect  hard  effort 
and  dedication  that  they  see  in  others. 
It  is  the  respect  each  team  member  has 
in  the  high  performance  standards  of 
others  which  gives  Track  its  team  as- 
pect," concluded  Hird.

Men's  Lacrosse 

Student 
Lacrosse    Coach 


Written  by  Jessica  Andrews 

When  Anthony  Ferro,  now  a 
junior,  came  to  UMass  Dartmouth  in  the 
spring  semester  of  1998,  he  had  already 
been  playing  lacrosse  for  6  years.  Ferro, 
from  Granby,  a  little  town  in  Western 
Massachusetts,  transferred  to  South 
Hadley  High  School  in  his  sophomore 
year.  Here  he  found  lacrosse  and  began 
to  play,  starting  every  game  for  varsity 
his  junior  and  senior  years.  He  helped 
out  the  youth  lacrosse  teams  from  his 
town  as  a  positional  coach  for  the  three 
years  that  he  played  in  high  school.  Af- 
ter high  school  he  was  recruited  to  play 
lacrosse  at  Eastern  Connecticut  State 
University.  At  EConn,  he  made  the  All- 
Star  team,  and  helped  to  win  his  divi- 
sion in  the  Pilgrim  League.  After  his  sec- 
ond season  with  EConn  he  began  to  look 
for  a  better  business  school.  This  is  when 
he  found  UMass  Dartmouth.  Although 
Ferro  says  that  the  decision  to  leave  his 
friends  and  team  was  tough,  he  was 
able  to  arrive  at  UMass  in  time  for  the 
spring  season.  He  jumped  right  into  a 
starting  position  and  started  every  game 
at  UMass  for  two  years.  His  last  year 
playing  he  was  again  selected  to  the 
league  All-Star. 

Things  began  to  change  for 
Ferro  during  the  fall  semester  of  1999. 
He  was  no  longer  eligible  to  play  la- 
crosse at  a  college  level  according  to 
NCAA  rules,  which  say  that  one  can 
only  play  four  years  in  a  particular  sport. 
So  he  applied  for  the  assistant  coaching 
position  here  at  UMass  and  got  it. 


Though  his  title  is  Assistant 
Coach,  his  job  on  the  team  is  the 
defense.  He  decides  who  plays  and 
picks  all  of  the  match-ups  out  on  the 
field.  He  also  makes  up  all  of  the 
defensive  plays  and  decides  when  to 
run  certain  types  of  defense.  He  is 
in  charge  of  about  twelve  players: 
goalies,  long  sticks,  and  middle 
defense. 

Ferro' s  players  and  former 
teammates  had  much  to  say  about 
him  as  a  player  and  as  a  coach.  "The 
players  respected  his  and  listened  to 
him  because  he  was  a  quality  player 
while  he  was  here  at  UMD,"  said  AJ 
Stevens,  tri-captain.  Mike  Beaton, 
another  tri-captain,  voiced  his  im- 
pressions of  Ferro  as  a  coach,  "I  was 
impressed  with  how  he  brought  a 
hard-nosed  work  ethic  to  the  defense 
and  how  he  taught  a  young  defense 
to  play  together  on  a  completely  new 
level."  When  asked  what  is  the  worst 
thing  about  coaching,  Ferro  replied... 
"The  feeling  that  you  are  more  re- 
sponsible for  a  loss  than  just  one 
player.  One  thing  that  I  will  say,  is 
an  old  quote  about  coaching  from 
my  father.  In  the  eyes  of  the  public, 
when  the  team  is  winning  it  is  be- 
cause the  kids  are  great.  When  the 
team  is  loosing,  it  is  because  the 
coaches  stink."

Replacing  Lost  Seniors 


t 


Written  by  Kristen  Regan 

Even  though  the  women's  la- 
crosse team  lost  a  lot  of  seniors,  they 
still  had  a  successful  season  in  their 
rebuilding  year.  Senior  Eric  Langone 
the  team's  manager  said  that  leading 
scorer  Emily  Valorz, 
sophomore,  and  goalie 
Kristen  Keene,  sopho- 
more, "played  a  very  sig- 
nificant role  to  the  success 
of  the  team." 

This  season  the 
girls  traveled  to 
Clairmount,  CA  for  their 
spring  training.  There,  " 
we  played  our  first  3  games  of  the  sea- 
son, and  we  won  the  third,"  Valorz 
said,  "That  trip  helped  us  bond  a  lot." 
The  girls  had  a  great  time  and  by  the 
third  game  they  were  playing  as  a 
team.  Before,  the  girls  had  not  been  as 
united,  but  having  been  together  on  the 
trip,  they  became  better  acquainted 
with  one  another.  After  learning  each 
other's  strengths  and  weaknesses,  ev- 
eryone began  working  together.  The 
trip  was  a  good  prelude  to  the  season, 
"overall  I  think  we  missed  playoffs  by 
1  or  2  games,"  Valorz  said. 

"It  was  a  rebuilding  year," 
Valorz  said.  This  season  the  girls  lost 


five  seniors,  most  of  who  were  start- 
ers. "We  didn't  have  the  height  we 
needed  in  the  draw,"  she  said.  "La- 
crosse takes  a  lot  of  stick  movement, 
and  a  lot  of  speed  and  stick  skill,"  said 
Valorz.  Alumnus  Janice  Hop- 
per came  back  as  an  assistant 
offensive  coach,  "she  was  a 
big  help,  she  was  awesome," 
Valorz  said.  Hopper  offered 
experienced  insight,  which 
boosted  the  girls  playing  abili- 
ties. 

For  Valorz,  college 
has  been  the  first  time  she  had 
experienced  a  man  coaching  women's 
lacrosse.  Coach  Jerry  Jennings, 
"pushes  us,  he's  very  determined," 
Valorz  said  "his  positive  attitude 
spreads  on  to  us."  This  was  Jenning's 
third  year  coaching  lacrosse,  the 
women's  team  has  been  a  varsity  sport 
for  only  three  years.  The  team  was  very 
passionate  about  their  game.  Valorz,  a 
business  marketing  major,  finally  said, 
"I'd  love  to  play  lacrosse  for  the  rest 
of  my  life,  but  I  can't  make  a  living  at 
that."  With  an  overall  team  attitude  like 
that,  it  is  no  wonder  that  the  team  is  a 
success.

Women's  Equestrian 

Riding    On 

Successful  All  Around 


Written  by  Kristen  Regan 

The  UMD  equestrian  team  has 
much  to  be  proud  of.  This  year  round 
sport  had  approximately  1 8  girls  who 
competed,  1 1  of  which  were  honors 
students,  and  of  those,  four  made  the 
chancellors  list.  These  high 
accomplishments  gave  the 
equestrian  team  the  highest 
GPA  of  the  women's  sports 
teams.  "Equestrian  is  a  team 
sport  where  you  get  to  com- 
pete as  individuals,"  Sarah 
Richardson,  junior  said. 

Equestrian,  like  other  indi- 
vidual sports  has  a  point  system.  There 
are  six  levels  of  competition  total:  be- 
ginner and  advanced  walk/trot/canter; 
advanced  walk/trot;  all  six  compete  in 
a  flat  class,  and  the  open,  intermedi- 
ate, and  novice  rider  compete  in  a  sec- 
ond jumping  class.  The  upper  three 
level  riders  compete  in  both  a  jump- 
ing class  and  a  flat  class.  All  of  the  rid- 
ers compete  in  a  flat  class,  where  each 
is  judged  on  their  form  upon  the  horse. 
The  team  points  their  best  riders  and 
those  points  are  added  up  to  determine 
the  team's  final  score. 

Each  semester  the  team  com- 
petes in  five  riding  shows.  Richardson 
and  teammate  Laura  Perry,  junior, 
qualified  for  the  New  England  Re- 
gional Equestrian  Competition.  The 
regional  competition  is  the  first  play- 
off,  where  the  riders  hope  to  qualify 
for  the  New  England  Zones  Champi- 


onship, which  Perry  did  qualify  for. 
The  riders  enter  the  Zones  Champion- 
ship, in  anticipation  of  making  the  In- 
tercollegiate Horse  Show  Association 
National  Championships.  "It's  a  team 
between  the  girls  and  the 
horse.  It's  an  understanding 
you  must  have,"  Richardson 
said. 

The  team  practiced 
once  a  week  at  Glenn  Farm 
in  Portsmouth,  RI.  UMD  pro- 
vided for  the  girls  to  ride 
there  once  a  week.  The  girls  also  have 
a  team  meeting  once  a  week,  yearlong. 
This  year  the  team  juggled  three 
coaches,  Ted  Torrey,  Bridget  Little, 
and  due  to  pronunciation,  a  coach  af- 
fectionately referred  to  as  Coach  G. 
"We  hope  to  be  more  involved  as  a 
team  this  year,"  Richardson  said. 
"Equestrian  requires  physical  fitness, 
endurance,  and  a  lot  of  attention  to 
detail,"  she  continued,  "it's  very  me- 
ticulous, like  a  choreographed  dance. 
Positioning  is  key,  it's  all  about  your 
dance  on  the  horse.  You  need  strength 
to  keep  your  form  on  the  horse,  which 
is  what  makes  a  successful  rider  in  an 
intercollegiate  show,  along  with  con- 
trolling the  animal." 

Richardson  has  been  on  the 
team  for  the  past  three  years,  and  she 
will  be  one  of  the  first  recipients  of  a 
four-year  varsity  letter.  Prior  to  the 
1 998  school  year,  equestrian  was  only 


a  club  sport  at  UMD.  The  interest  in 
varsity  equestrian  is  growing  and  the 
girls  hope  to  establish  a  bigger  and  bet- 
ter team  for  years  to  come.

Men's  and  Women's  Golf 

A    Combined 
Effort 


Written  by  Kristen  Regan 

"I  love  golf,"  senior  finance 
major  Joey  Lopes  said.  This  past  season 
has  been  an  exciting  one  for  the  golf 
team.  They  formed  a  separate  women's 
varsity  team  this  season,  and  for  a  Divi- 
sion III  team  they  had  a  suc- 
cessful season.  "Relative  to 
other  teams,  we  did  fairly  well 
at  matches,"  Lopes  said. 

The  teams  practiced 
at  Reservation  and  New  Bed- 
ford Country  Clubs.  The  men 
practiced  with  the  women's 
team,  composed  of  only  2 
women,  and  then  went  out  and  played 
in  the  matches.  An  example  of  the  team's 
lowest  score  was  at  Montaup  Country 
Club,  in  Portsmouth,  RI  where  they  won 
their  match  with  a  316-317  score. 

In  varsity  intercollegiate  golf 
matches,  students  play  a  full  18  hole 
course.  Five  players  compete,  and  the 
four  lowest  scorers  are  counted  in  the 
teams  total  point  count.  There  were  ap- 
proximately 12  golfers  on  the  men's 
team,  but  only  6  or  8  ever  played  in  the 
matches.  Matches  were  generally  5 
hours  long  and  teachers  were  rough  on 


the  players  who  missed  classes  twice  a 
week  to  play  in  the  matches. 
"Usually  we  would  scrape  up  who  we 
could  find,"  Lopes  said. 

"It's  extremely  time  con- 
suming," senior  business  in- 
formation science  major  Matt 
Lane  said.  "We  would  leave 
at  9  or  10  a.m.  for  a  1  p.m. 
start,"  the  co-captain  contin- 
ued. The  team  would  play  un- 
til 6:00  p.m.,  and  if  the  match 
was  far  away  they  would  not 
return  home  until  8  or  9  p.m. 
The  weekend  matches  lasted  the  whole 
weekend,  and  many  times  the  team  stayed 
overnight.  Lane  started  playing  at  age 
nine,  and  had  played  throughout  his  child- 
hood. His  personal  low  score  of  the  sea- 
son was  a  79. 

Lopes,  who  was  the  number  1 
scoring  person  on  the  team,  qualified  for 
EC  AC  tounament  in  New  York,  at  UMD's 
home  invitational  at  the  New  Bedford 
country  club,  and  placed  a  second  or  third 
place  finish.  With  the  seasons  team  suc- 
cesses, hopefully  next  year  many  more 
women  will  be  seen  on  the  green  too.

Men's  Tennis 

Smaller    than 
Before 

Team  Looking  to  Rebuild  in  Size 

For  Next  Season 


Written  by  Kristen  Regan 

Trevor  Cabral  is  a  freshman 
who  has  been  playing  tennis  since  age 
seven  or  eight.  His  experience  helped 
give  him  an  upper  hand  when  playing 
for  the  UMD  men's  tennis  team.  Cabral 
played  1st  doubles  with  Jim  Green  this 
season,  and  he  also  played  third  singles. 

"I  did  rather  well,"  Cabral  said. 
In  the  league  tour,  Cabral  was  runner  up 
in  the  league  for  doubles.  Green  won  sec- 
ond singles  in  the  Little  East  Conference 
Championship.  "I  was  the  third  in  the 
singles  LEC  championship,"  Cabral 
said. 

This  season,  there  were  about 
nine  guys  on  team  total,  which  was  an 
average  size  team  when  compared  with 
other  schools.  Some  of  the  schools  with 


larger  teams  only  brought  their  starters, 
for  example  Southern  Maine.  All  of  the 
team  members  had  had  a  background 
in  tennis.  "Most  had  played  one  or  two 
[in  their  lineup]  on  their  high  school 
teams,"  Cabral  said. 

Compared  to  some  past  years, 
this  year's  team  was  smaller.  For  the 
next  season  the  team  hopes  to  recruit 
many  of  the  freshman  and  other  incom- 
ing students.  The  men  practice  in  the 
fall  and  winter,  hitting  around  balls  on 
the  court.  This  is  so  they  are  "not  too 
rusty  when  the  season  begins,"  Cabral 
said.  Although  they  have  the  depth 
needed  to  compete,  the  team  hopes  to 
grow  next  year.

Putting    up    a 

Fight 

For  Top  Competition 


Written  by  Kristen  Regan 

The  2000  baseball  team  started 
this  season  in  California  for  their  spring 
training.  For  a  young  team,  they  "really 
were  excellent,"  said  sopho- 
more player  Doug  Kelsch.  It 
wasn't  until  the  playoffs,  at  the 
end  of  the  season,  when  the 
guys  really  began  to  come  to- 
gether as  a  team.  'j- 

In  the  playoff  games,  ^  A,, 
the  guys  won  all.  They  moved 
on  to  the  regional  champion- 
ships. This  year,  instead  of  playing  at 
their  regional  games  in  Southern  Maine, 
they  were  sent  to  a  whole  other  region, 
in  upstate  New  York.  Outside  of  their 
region  they  did  well,  winning  against 
Rencailler,  losing  to  Ithaca  College,  then 
winning  again  to  Old  Westbury,  and  fi- 
nally again  losing  to  Ithaca. 


"We  faced  some  of  the  top 
competition  in  the  country,"  said 
sophomore  outfielder,  Jason  Or- 
lando. It  served  as  an  evalu- 
ation of  how  good  the  team 
really  was.  "We  played 
against  some  solid  teams," 
Orlando  said.  Overall  the 
team  played  well  against 
;  their  season's  competition, 

winning  about  half  of  their 
games  for  their  season.  "We 
played  near  40  games,"  Kelsch  said. 
After  spending  a  week  to- 
gether in  California,  the  baseball 
team  had  definitely  bonded.  "It 
brought  us  closer,  and  made  us  the 
team  we  became,"  Orlando  said.

Women's  Softball 

Communication 

Key  to  Success 


Written  by  Kristen  Regan 


"I  think  we  had  a  developing 
season,"  said  sophomore  Heather 
Blaisdell.  There  were  many  new  play- 
ers as  well  as  some  older 
ones  on  the  99-00  Softball 
team.  Blaisdell  was  the 
catcher  for  the  team.  For 
her  it  was  "key  to  com- 
municate with  the  whole 
team,"  she  said.  Blaisdell 
worked  with  pitchers  Erica 
Roderiques,  sophomore;  and 
Mindy  Peruzzi,  juinor.  "You  really  have 
to  connect  with  the  pitchers,"  she  said, 
"I'm  still  in  the  developing  stage." 

This  year  the  Softball  team  went 
to  Fort  Myers,  Florida,  for  their  spring 
training.  They  played  approximately 
seven  games  there,  against  some  of  the 
teams  from  the  Little  East  Conference, 
as  well  as  other  teams  from  around  the 
country.  The  Conference  teams  would 
be  some  of  the  ones  they  would  be  up 
against  during  there  regular  season. 

The  trip  helped  the  girls  to  bond. 
"It  was  either  a  make  it  or  break  it  situa- 


tion," Blaisdell  said.  The  girls  were 
together  all  of  the  time  in  Florida  and 
got  to  know  one  another  on  and  off 
the  field.  "You  get  to  know 
what      each      other's 
strengths  and  weak- 
nesses are,"  Blaisdell 
said.  For  her  it  was  nice 
to  get  to  know  every- 
one. 
Blaisdell       "likes 
catching  best  -  you're  al- 
ways in  the  game."  There  is  always 
something  to  work  on,  "it's  a  lot  of 
work. . .  [there  are]  a  lot  of  things  hap- 
pening at  once."  A  catcher  must  com- 
municate with  the  pitcher,  and  help  to 
bring  up  the  team's  morale.  "You  have 
to  be  very  vocal,  very  loud,  and  con- 
fident in  yourself,"  Blaisdell  said. 

Hopefully  with  the  right 
amount  of  teamwork,  and  returning 
players,  the  girls  can  look  forward  to 
a  strong  season.  "I  hope  a  lot  of  people 
return,  and  we  have  a  very  good  sea- 
son next  year,"  Blaisdell  finished.

The    Forgotten 

Events 

More  than  Running  and 

Sprinting 

Written  by  Kristen  Regan 


The  "field"  part  of  spring  out- 
door track  is  often  forgotten  by  many. 
People  often  see  track  as  running  and 
sprinting  and  forget  about  many  of  the 
other  events  the  members  of  the 

spring  track  team  par- 
ticipate in.  Aside  from  the 
running  events,  track  and  field 
encompasses  a  wide  range  of 
events  including  shot  put,  jav- 
elin, discus,  hammer,  long 
jump,  triple  jump,  high  jump, 
and  the  pole  vault. 

"I  did  field,  and  no,  I  am  not  a 
runner,"  junior  Melissa  Eslinger  clari- 
fied. Eslinger's  event  is  the  discus 
throw.  This  event  is  based  on  techni- 
cal skill  over  strength.  Most  people  are 
surprised  to  find  out  the  discus  is 
Eslinger's  event  -  they  will  say  "You 
do?  You  are  not  gross  and  nasty!  That 
is  the  usual  response,"  Eslinger  said. 
"You  do  not  have  to  weight  300 
pounds  and  have  big  muscles  to  throw 


far."  Eslinger  is  a  slim,  5 '7"  brunette 
making  quite  a  contrast  from  the  ste- 
reotypical view  many  may  have. 

Eslinger  only  practices  twice 
a  week,  in  comparison  to  the 
runners  who  meet  six  days  a 
week  for  practice.  To  throw  the 
^^    discus  you  must  have  good  bal- 
ance, "it  is  all  technical,  if  you 
do  not  have  good  form  then 
you  will  not  throw  well,"  she 
said,  "if  your  head  and  feet  are 
not  within  the  certain  perimeters,  then 
you  will  not  throw  well,"  Eslinger  con- 
tinued. 

It  seems  that  many  people  al- 
most forget  that  we  have  a  devoted 
field  team.  Track  runners  seem  to  get 
all  the  publicity.  Those  who  participate 
in  the  field  events  put  in  just  as  much 
time  and  effort  as  do  the  runners.  Their 
achievements  should  not  be  over- 
looked.

Rough    Season 


Dealing  with  the 
Circumstances 

Written  by  Kristen  Regan 


Tim  Garcia,  junior,thought  that 
he  did,  "alright,  I  could  have  done  a  lot 
better."  Garcia  did  well  considering,  that 
the  track  team  couldn't  practice  on  their 
home  track. 

The  team  tried  to  find 
anywhere  to  practice.  Many 
times  they  used  Dartmouth 
High's  track.  "We  had  to  do  stuff 
around  it,"  he  said.  "The  track  is 
not  a  perfect  oval,  there  is  to 
much  track  on  lane  eight  not 
enough  on  lane  one." 

Thier  practices  were  the  compe- 
titions. Garcia,  a  long  jumper  and  a 
sprinter,  did  well  for  not  practicing.  His 
longest  jump  this  season  was  21  ft.  10 
in.  Garcia' s  best  jump  ever  was  22  ft  1 1 .5 
in.  in  the  season  before.  This  year  he 
wanted  to  jump  23  ft.  but  he  and  his 
jumping  teammates  didn't  really  have 
the  coaching  they  needed,  after  the  as- 
sistant coach  quit. 

Jon  Hird,  head  coach,  is  an  ex- 
cellent coach  for  cross  country,  but  "in 
the  events  I  do,  that's  not  his  specialty," 


Garcia  said.  He  and  his  teammates 
had  to  watch  each  other  doing  long 
jump,  and  they  would  critique  one 
another's  performance.  Hird  had  not 
coached  sprinters  or  jumpers  in  a 
long  time.  "It  was  hard 
with  one  coach,  he  had  to 
do  everything,"  javelin 
thrower  Mark  Kulakowski 
said.  Hird  did  a  good  job 
juggling  both  the  track  and 
field  teams. 

Even  with  the  lack 
of  coaching,  Garcia  still 
placed  well.  He  made  second  and 
third  place  in  his  event.  For  him  this 
was  down  from  last  year  when  he 
scored  first  place  often.  He  broke 
two  school  records  for  the  100  meter 
and  200  meter  sprints. 

Kulakowski  did  well  too,  he 
placed  first  in  the  Little  East  Con- 
ference, against  some  of  his  tough- 
est competitors  Southern  Maine  and 
Keene  State.

Fitness    Center 

The  Convenient  Stop  For  Dorm 
Residents  To  Work  Out 


The  Phase  3B  Fitness  Center, 
has  been  for  many  years,  a  place  where 
many  residents  have  gone  to  work  out. 
With  the  new  addition  to  the  Tripp 
Atheltic  Center,  the  result  has  been  a 
slight  decline  of  interest  in  the  gym. 

Chris  Laib,  the  Resident 
Director  of  Phase  3B,  said  the  on 
average  50  to  100  students  would  use 
the  3B  facilities  daily,  usually  the 
numbers  being  closer  to  50,  depending 
on  the  day.  This  student  run  center 


actually  "took  a  large  universal  machine 
that  was  in  the  old  fitness  area,"  Laib 
said.  The  old  fitness  area  was  a  small 
weight  lifting  center  located  in  the  lobby 
area  of  the  Athletic  Center.  The  3B 
Fitness  Center  hopes  to  order  some 
newer  equipment  in  the  2001  school 
year,  Laib  said. 

Overall,  the  four  Residence 
Halls  use  the  3B  Center  pretty  heavily. 
The  location  of  this  smaller  weight  area 
makes  it  convenient  for  many  students 


between  classes,  instead  of  making  the 
long  trek  to  the  Athletic  Center.  Besides 
working  out,  the  Fitness  Center  is  also 
used  twice  a  year  for  the  American  Red 
Cross  Blood  Drive.  The  weight  lifting 
equipment  is  pushed  aside  to  make 
room  for  the  Blood  Drive's  equipment. 
The  Fitness  Center  is  definitely 
an  advantage  to  the  residential 
community,  and  with  the  introduction 
of  some  newer  equipment,  it  will  remain 
a  positive  resource  for  students.

Suites? 

Dorm  Renovations 


Written  by  Jessica  Andrews 


Once  upon  a  time  every 
suite  had  a  kitchen  and  common 
room.  The  double  rooms  only  had 
two  people  and  triple  rooms,  even 
though  they  were  huge,  only  had 
three  people.  There  were  locked 
doors  for  each  suite  and  when  the 
balconies  were  locked  at  six  inches 
and  the  only  way  to  get  them  opened 
was  to  do  a  good  job  at  C.A.S.H. 
(Clean  And  Safe  House). 

This  has  all  changed  due  to 
over  enrollment  by  the  University. 
Most  suites  aren't  suites  anymore. 
They  are  hallways  with  no  door; 
rooms  with  too  many  people.  There 
is  only  one  kitchen  and  common 
room  per  floor.  The  suite  area  for  the 
other  two  suites  on  each  floor  has 
been  converted  into  another 
bedroom  called  the  A  room.  Former 
double  rooms  are  now  forced  triples 
with  three  people  living  in  a  space 
designed  for  two.  In  these  rooms 
there  are  three  beds  (one  set  is 
bunked),  but  there  are  only  two 
desks,  two  computer  ports,  two 
closets,  two  bureaus.  The  former 
triple  rooms  are  slightly  better.  The 
rooms  are  very  large  and  four  people 
can  fit  comfortably.  In  most  triples, 
there  are  four  beds,  four  desks,  three 
closets  and  four  dressers,  so,  as 
David  Lacivita,  a  freshman  living  in 
a  forced  quad,  said,  "there  aren't 
really  any  space  problems,  but  there 
isn't  a  lot  of  privacy.  With  four 
people,  someone  is  always  coming 
in  or  leaving." 


Most  students  have  had  a 
problem  sharing  the  kitchen  and 
common  room  with  their  entire  floor. 
They  either  said  that  they  did  not  use 
their  own  kitchen,  they  used  someone 
else's  kitchen,  or  that  they  used  their 
own  kitchen,  but  were  grossed  out  by 
it.  Jinneane  Sperrazza,  a  freshman 
living  in  a  new  A  room  said,  "its 
gross  sharing  a  kitchen  with  boys. 
There's  food  everywhere  and  I've 
never  once  sat  on  the  couch  to  watch 
TV."  Most  student  seemed  to  agree. 
One  suite  per  floor  doesn't  work.  No 
one  uses  the  TV  room  or  the  kitchen. 
They  were  all  barren  as  we  were 
walking  around. 

Other  students  have  had 
problems  with  privacy  and  safety. 
With  the  doors  to  the  suites  either 
being  unlocked  or  gone,  anyone  can 
come  right  up  to  your  door  anytime 
they  want  to,  whereas  last  year  the 
doors  to  each  suite  were  locked  and 
no  one  was  even  allowed  to  prop 
them  open.  Jen  Gomula,  a  soph- 
emore  living  in  a  normal  double 
room  said,  "last  year  we  got  written 
up  if  our  door  was  propped  because 
they  were  thinking  of  our  safety.  I 
want  to  know  what  changed  because 
now  people  can  come  straight  up  to 
my  door.  We  always  have  to  lock  our 
doors."  But  some  suites  are  still 
suites.  In  Phase  1,  Red  and  Yellow 
still  have  functioning  suites. 
Students  in  these  suites  are  grateful 
for  their  privacy,  and  they  use  their 
kitchen  and  common  suite  area. 


The  new  A  room  is  a  double 
room,  but  most  were  forced  triples 
that  got  broken  up  immediately. 
Students  not  living  in  the  A  rooms 
were  somewhat  jealous  of  the  space 
that  the  A  rooms  had  for  two  people. 
Teva  Smith,  a  freshman  living  in  a 
normal  double  room  in  3B  said,  "I 
would  love  to  have  the  A  room. 
They  have  a  much  better  deal  than 
everyone  else,  what  with  the  cable, 
cabinets,  and  counter  space."  The 
A  rooms  in  3 A  and  3B  do  indeed 
have  all  the  cabinets  and  counter 
space  that  were  there  from  when  it 
was  a  kitchen  area.  In  Blue  and 
Phase  2  the  cabinets  have  been 
covered  over  and  made  into  a  wall, 
but  every  A  room  has  legal  cable. 
The  fact  the  the  A  rooms  have  cable 
has  upset  some  people.  "It  would  be 
more  fair  if  they  put  cable  in  every 
room,  or  took  it  out  of  the  A  rooms," 
Jeff  Kulpinski,  a  freshman  living  in 
a  former  forced  triple  said.  Students 
living  in  the  A  rooms  don't  see  the 
A  room  as  something  to  be  jealous 
of  at  all.  One  of  the  complaints  from 
the  A  rooms  in  Blue  and  Phase  2, 
was  that  there  were  no  opening 
windows,  only  a  slider  that  opened 
6  inches.  Also  the  only  source  of 
light  besides  the  windows,  is  one 
fixture  near  the  door. 

While  it  would  be  possible 
to  restore  the  A  rooms  back  into  a 
kitchen  and  common  area,  they  are 
planned  as  permanent.  However, 
the  University  is  trying  to  plan  for  a 


202  ^f  /underclassmen/ 


new  dorm  to  be  built.  They  have 
gotten  several  proposal  designs  from 
architects  for  800  new  beds  in  two 
400  bed  units.  But  of  course,  this  is 
3-6  years  down  the  road. 


Above,  one  of  the  new  enclosed  RA  stations 
at  the  entrance  of  every  dorm  building. 

To  the  right,  a  typical  over  crowded  room  due 
to  the  over  enrollment  this  year.

Embracing 
Change 

Final  Thoughts.. 


Written  by  Kristen  Regan 

What  marks  the  closing  of  this 
book,  marks  a  new  beginning  for  its 
readers.  Ahead  of  you,  you  have  your 
futures  -  a  whole  unopened,  ever- 
expanding  frontier.  The  2000 
Scrimshaw  Yearbook  is  probably  as 
grateful  to  get  this  project,  the  2000 
book,  out  of  its  hands,  as  you  are  to 
receive  it. 

As  a  semester  of  schoolwork 
can  be  very  trying,  so  was  working  on 
this  yearbook.  Juggling  staff,  endless 
hours  of  work,  late  nights,  and  many 
shots  of  espresso  went  into  the 
completion  of  this  book.  Running 
around  the  campus  collecting 
information  from  various  sources 
became  very  time  consuming.  The 
Student  Affairs  Office,  Athletics,  and 
the  Student  Activities  Office,  are 
amongst  the  few  that  aided  the 
completion  of  the  yearbook.  The 
Yearbook  Staff  dedicated  most  of  its 
free  time,  to  you,  the  Class  of  2000.  The 
first  class  of  the  new  Millennium,  and 
enjoyed  doing  so. 

The  Millennium  marks  a  world 
of  change.  Advancements  in 
technology,  medicine,  and  peace 
among  people  are  being  explored  and 


changed  every  day.  The  Class  of  2000 
will  enter  this  world,  and  embark  upon 
changes  such  as  these,  and  other  minute 
by  minute  changes.  New  jobs,  new  lives 
away  from  the  one  you  led  at  the 
University,  will  shape  the  people  you  are 
to  become.  The  University  always  has  a 
place  for  its  graduates. 

The  University  will  embark  on 
many  changes  too  in  the  next  few  years. 
It  seems  as  though  UMD  is  constantly 
transforming  to  become  a  bigger  and 
better  school.  UMD  is  constantly  building 
on  its  foundation  to  make  education  more 
accessible  to  the  masses.  Within  the  next 
several  years  there  will  be  changes  made 
in  the  expansion  of  the  Residence  Halls, 
and  a  system  to  make  parking  on  campus 
a  much  less  painful  process,  with  the 
introduction  of  electronic  arms  at  the 
gates  of  Cedar  Dell.  The  College  of 
Visual  and  Performing  Arts,  will  be 
transferring  their  program  to  the  old  Star 
Store  in  New  Bedford. 

Embrace  the  changes  ahead  of 
you,  it's  important  to  remain  open- 
minded,  apply  your  higher  education 
skills  and  to  never  forget  your  roots  here 
at  the  University  of  Massachusetts 
Dartmouth.

but  you  can't  see  me

pay  your  last  respects  cause 
we'll  meet  again 

Is  that  why  you're  crying?

Editor's    Letter 


To  the  class  of  2000, 


I  would  like  to  say  CONGRATULATIONS  to  each  and  every  one  of 
you  for  your  many  accomplishments  here  at  UMASS  Dartmouth.  You 
have  reached  the  point  in  your  life  where  you  once  again  open  up  a  new 
chapter  and  continue  with  the  great  story  of  your  life.  I'm  sure  your  years 
here  went  by  quickly,  for  some  too  quickly  and  for  others,  not  quick 
enough.  You  have  all  worked  very  hard  to  be  where  you  are,  and  deserve 
whatever  it  is  that  you  desire  in  life. 

No  matter  where  you  end  up,  you  will  always  have  the  memories  that 
you  made  at  UMD.  It  doesn't  matter  where  you  go  and  whom  you  keep 
in  touch  with,  be  it  good  or  bad,  you  will  never  forget  the  time  spent  here. 

You  will  remember  the  dell  parties,  the  RATT's,  the  late  night  talks  some 

turning  into  fights,  the  friendships  and  relationships  that  developed  with 

time.  You  will  look  back  on  that  day  when  you  realized  that  this  is  where  you  belonged.  The  way  you  felt 

freshmen  year  not  really  knowing  anyone  or  anything  will  remain  in  your  mind.  The  biggest  memory  of  all, 

graduation  day-the  final  memory  before  turning  the  page  will  bring  tears  and  smiles  for  years  to  come.  With 

time  some  of  these  memories  will  fade,  but  you  will  never  forget  them  all  together.

When  leaving  this  university,  you  are  not  taking  with  you  only  a  diploma  but  the  knowledge  that  you  just 
survived  probably  the  best  and  hardest  days  of  your  lives.  "I  always  knew  that  looking  back  on  the  tears 
would  make  me  laugh,  but  I  never  knew  that  looking  back  on  the  laughs  would  make  me  cry, "-anonymous. 
This  is  one  of  my  favorite  quotes  and  it  could  not  be  any  more  true.  Times  will  change,  people  will  come  and 
go,  but  no  matter  what  there  is  one  thing  that  no  one  can  change,  your  memories. 

You  all  have  your  diploma  and  your  memories,  and  I  wish  you  the  best  of  luck  in  future  years  to  come.  It  is 
very  sad  for  me  to  watch  so  many  of  my  close  friends  graduate,  and  I  know  that  I  will  lose  touch  with  many, 
but  I  will  never  forget  them  or  the  many  great  times  we  had.  I  do  not  have  any  profound  advice  or  words  of 
wisdom  for  you  to  take  with  you,  but  just  remember  to  work  hard  and  have  fun.  Make  many  more  wonderful 
memories  to  add  to  the  wonderful  collection  that  you  have  already  begun. 

GOOD  LUCK  CLASS  of  2000! 


Best  Wishes, 


Amanda  Kline

Mark, 

How  proud  we  are  of  the  man  you  have  become. 

Your  accomplishments  thrive  not  in  spite  of  others 
but  in  conjunction  with  others.  Your  determination 
comes  from  within  rather  than  without.  Friends  are 
your  helping  hands  and  not  your  stepping  stones, 
and  awareness  and  compassion  for  others  comes 
before  yourself.  You  have  viewed  obstacles  as 
opportunities  and  not  barriers,  and  your  successes 
do  not  stem  from  others  disappointments. 

You  have  grown  to  be  a  great  person,  not  because 
of  what  you  are,  but  because  of  who  you  are. 

With  Love, 

Mom  &  Dad

Allison, 

"The  only  one  born  in  Plymouth,  Thanksgiving  Day  of  the  Bicentennial  Year" 

You  start  to  make  a  name  for  yourself  from  the  moment  that  you  appear. 

You've  brought  us  joy  and  happiness  everyday  since  then; 

You've  accomplished  the  goals  you've  set  for  yourself  time  and  time  again. 

You  went  to  France  for  several  weeks  and  toured  the  countryside. 

Carried  a  full  time  class  load  and  worked  full  time  besides. 

You  got  an  Associates  Degree  then  transferred  to  continue; 

Joined  a  sorority  and  gained  "sisters",  which  meant  more  commutes  for  you. 

Now  you're  the  first  in  the  family  to  earn  a  Bachelors  Degree,  And  you  don't 

want  to  stop  there-your  goal  is  a  Maters  Degree. 

With  your  determination  and  pride  in  what  you  do, 

You  will  achieve  all  that  you  want  -  we  have  confidence  in  you. 

We're  proud  of  the  person  you  are,  of  the  woman  that  you've  become! 

We  love  you  and  wish  you  the  best  in  life, 

Congratulations!  Dad  and  Mom 


Dear  Aimee,
