Opening Letter
From the Edi
The ninety-five / ninety-six academic
year, for The American University,
was, in a sense, the beginning of the
milleniums end. Our University's
founders intended American to be one
of the great national universities.
Since 1896, when Bishop Hurst broke
ground for Hurst Hall, the university
has made considerable leaps toward
that goal, and continues improve for
the future.
A.U.
Spirit
is back
Not only has the University been
steadily building and expanding
physically, but also broadening its
course curriculum to include
subjects taught no where else,
such as Global Nuclear Studies.
American is clearly
focusing goals for the
new millenium.
Unfortunately in the past few
years there has been a perceived
lull in the amount of pride a
student possessed at American. I
sense, and I am not alone, that the
American Spirit has revived again.

Visual Identity
No more "The" with
October twenty-third the new system of
logos used throughout the University was
released with mixed response from the student
population. The Eagle printed a story and
student survey concerning the system Presi-
dent Ladner presented as a strong and spirited
representation of the student body. Although
the Mary Graydon survey was not a random
student sampling, the poll indicated some
discord. The survey asked students questions
such as:
"Should we omit the "The" in our name
[from] university letterhead, advertisements
and other image setting devices?"
"Should we change the official university
"The AU Logotype and Mascot have been
redesigned. "Do you like it?"
"Should AU students have had a chance to
design these two?"
When the Administration makes these
changes "should students, faculty, staff and
alumni be consulted?"
While the 310 poll respondents'
answers implicated that the Administration
should have handled the redesign differ-
ently, the most important part of the
system has nothing to do with what the
mark, logo, or mascot look like. The system
calls for the entire university to adopt the
use of the system, and follow the same
guidelines. The Visual Identity Program was
put together to strengthen the connection
of each department to the university.
This "Program"
provides marks,
mascots, logo-
types, and guides
for nearly all
publications.

President Ben
We are a "private university with a public mission"
In his first year as president, beginning July '94, Ladner
began to raise A.U.'s profile as a "private university with
a public mission" and laid the groundwork for strategic
planning through the adoption of the university's "State-
ment of Common Purpose," which will serve as a
touchstone for academic programming, campus life, and
facilities development for the coming years.
We must
connect
the administration,
faculty, and the student
body by one common
identity,
back to the
He reorganized A.U.'s administrative structure
and assembled a new senior leadership team that
brought stability to the upper level management for
the first time in five years. He and his administra-
tion completed a search to fill seven presidential
cabinet positions, four of which were filled during a
national search. Robert Griffith was appointed to
provost, Tom Goodale to vice president of student
services; Tom Myers to vice president of enrollment
services, and Linda Nelsonto vice president for
development. Ladner also appointed former
director of media relations, David Taylor, to the
position of special assistant to the president.
Former administrative coordinator in the
president's office, Margie Hadsell, was promoted to
executive secretary.
1995-6 was President Ladner's second terrm.
At the beginning of the year he was interviewed lor
the American Scene and said that he planned on
continuing his work toward creating a sense of
community here at A.U. He feels that the adminis-
tration, faculty, and student body of the university
each have a false identity of their own, and are
completely removed from one another. Ladner's
first step for change, was to implement a new
university wide visual identity system. Though the
system was met with some concernfrom the student
body, concerning aspects such as cost and aesthet-
ics, Ladner was willing to discuss the system on
various occasions, such aOpen Mike Night in the
Tavern.

Triples
Triples, dorm rooms occupied by three students, were yet
another outcome of American University's increased Freshmen
acceptance this year. Freshmen were first questioned on their Resi-
dence Preference forms whether or not they would object to boarding
with an extra roommate. The more adventurous of souls who ac-
cepted the challenge were placed into these triples with others of the
same choice. Simple and painless usually.
At times, the atmosphere of the room could seem to all but
whisper the common proverb "Three is a crowd...". This can only be
expected in a situation where people were faced with the task of
dividing a space designed to suit two people into space accommodat-
ing for three.
One thing about life in a triple is that friendships formed
are enduring and impressive in their strength. Being a part of a triple
certainly insures that you will always have a lunch date, study part-
ner, or an extra friend to confide in.
Though the mere mention of triples can predictably pro-
voke anything from cringing to sympathy from students who share
their room with only one other person, most Freshmen in triples have
proved the pessimists wrong. They have adapted to the situation with
the true American spirit and figure: If you are going to be an eagle,
why not share a little nest room?

"Grandpa, you were
a pillar of fire before
the camp. And now
we're just the camp
left alone in the
dark, and we're so
cold. I know people
are talking about a
national loss, but
how can you console
a whole nation when
Grandma cannot
stop weeping." —
Rabin's 17-year-old
granddaughter Noa
Ben-Artzi Philosof
Millions mourned the death of a
leader, colleague and friend. The assas-
sination of Yitzak Rabin on November
4, 1 995, created a shock wave that was felt all around
the world. People from all walks of life and every corner
of the world stood silent while the bells and sirens of Israel
peeled out in memorial to the fallen champion of peace.
Political leaders from all over the world attended his fu-
neral and memorial service. Even some of the rulers con-
sidered enemies of the peace process, put down their
weapons to pay tribute to Former Prime Minister Yitzak
Rabin. Tears were shed by even the solemnest of individu-
als.
In the global aspect, his death was seen as the
possible end of the peace process in the Middle East. Many
feared that what he had started was never going to get
finished.
On the day of the assassination, there was a shroud of
sadness that had enveloped the American University cam-
pus. The magnitude of this event could be viewed in the
eyes of the student body and faculty. So many realized the
effects that it could have had on the world.
If you had walked through Anderson 3N the day of the
assassination, you would have seen a sign that conveyed a
very poignant message. Yuval Levin, a freshman in the
School of Public Affairs, always has a picture posted
outside his room with a bit of sarcastic political humor
beneath it. On the day of the assassination he interrupted
his usual political commentary to post a memorial to Yitzak
Rabin. It simply consisted of a picture of Prime Minister
Yitzak Rabin with 1922-1995 printed beneath the picture
with these words place solemnly below: NO HUMOR
TODAY. Those words encompassed the feelings of many of
those affected by the assassination. There was no room in
the hearts of the mourners for humor for they were filled
with grief and sorrow.
One thing that helped much of the AU community
to cope was a candlelight vigil held at Kay Spiritual
Center.
As the shock settled and the world wondered where
this would lead, many began to realize the media images of
Israel in the wake of the assassination may have pushed the
Middle East closer to the peace that Rabin's extremist
Jewish assassin was protesting. This was an thesis pre-
sented on November 27, 1995, during the School of
Communication's American Forum, "Rabin's Legacy:
Press Coverage of Israel and the Middle East." The panel
consisted of Khalid Duran, senior fellow at the Institute for
International Studies and editor of TmnsState Islam ;
Shlomo Gur, deputy chief of mission at the Embassy of
Israel in Washington: Judith Kipper, director of the Middle
East Forum for the Council of Foreign Relations and a
consultant to the RAND Corp. and ABC News; and Ralph
Begleiter, CNN world affairs correspondent-the last non-
Israeli journalist to interview Rabin.

District Traffic
The first thing a visitor or newcomer to Washington, D.C.
Whether driving a car, riding a bus, or trying to cross the
street, district traffic cannot be avoided. Tensions run high as taxi
drivers search forpassengers and Metro buses make continuous
stops, both ignoring the othercars on the road. Traffic circles do
not help the situation. Trying to stay in your lane while out of
statedrivers figure their way around Dupont Circle can lead to
screeching tires, waving fists. Being a pedestrian in Washington
means taking your life in your hands at
every streetcrossing. Not having the right
of way often leaves walkers sprinting
across busyintersections dodging cars from
all directions. Most people prefer driving
their own car, rather than taking public
sees is not theWashington Monument of the
White House, but cars, lots and lots of cars.

conjestion on the streets
transportation, whichadds to the
conjestion on the streets. Those lucky
enough to be driving often wonderwhy
they bother as they are forced to spend
twenty minutes in search of that
elusiveparking spot. Travelling by the
Metro system is often the easiest way to
get around the city. Whiletravelling by
bus can be slow, and the midnight cur-
few can limit ones schedule, MetroRail is
quick, and much cheaper than paying
for parking.

The downtown D.C. area sprung to
life on September 23rd in the spirit of AIDS
awareness. American University students, fac-
ulty, and alumni marched among the droves of
citizens who made the city resonate with activ-
ity. Gathering downtown on the Mall in the
early morning, participants came out from the
far reaches of the nation to voice their concern
and show their support for one of the most
publicized health issues of today: the AIDS
epidemic.
The walk went into full swing
upon the arrival of such political figures as
Tipper Gore. From there, the participants
proceeded to march through the temporarily
closed off streets of D.C., making their pres-
ence and cause known. American University
groups were not to be overlooked in the
crowd. They began at the head of the march,
with their banners sailing out in front of them
and their cheers heard by all around them.
Foot traffic steadily replaced the usual
automotive congestion as onlookers called out
words of encouragement to the throngs who
surged past. One sure sign that the American
spirit was present was the appearance of our
own "Condom Man". During the pause be-
fore the walk was underway, he was seen
passing out condoms and urging his message
of safer sex to anyone within earshot.
Thanks to those involved and ac-
tive in the cause, the walk was a definite
success. Though it was only an annual event,
the impact that it causes was enough to make
any American University student proud
enough to proclaim from the frontlines of a
just cause, "Once an Eagle, Always an Eagle!".

The American Chapter of the Delta Chi Fraternity continued its tradition of
campus leadership and involvement throughout the Fall semester of 1995.
One of the highlights included the initiation of the Kappa pledge class.
Another, was Delta Chi's highly successful philanthropy project. The frater-
nity sponsored a campus-wide wiffleball tournament held during Greek
Weekend in October. Five-person teams could pay to participate in the
tournament, held on the Friedheim Quad, with all of the proceeds going to
The Luekemia Society of America. Through the combined efforts of the
brotherhood, Delta Chi was able to raise well over a thousand dollars for this
worthy cause. Also, the fraternity excelled in the field of intramurals. Delta
Chi's soccer team made it all the way to the finals, and its flag football team
reached the playoffs for the first time in the fraternity's history. Finally, to
culminate a highly successful semester, Delta Chi held its fifth year anniversary
founder's ball at the Senate's Russell Caucus Ballroom. Delta Chi made great
strides throughout the Fall 1995 semester, and it hopes to continue the
progress for years to come.

Scott Pearson, Kirk Friedrich,
I and Stephen Franzke head a
squad of talent.
Through the years the American University men's soccer team
has consistently been dealt grueling schedules. This year has been
no different. Their schedule contained games against eight teams
that have been to the NCAA tournament in the past two years.
They began their season with the teams first-ever appearance in the
eminent Coca-Cola Classic at Virginia and then continued with
fifteen games, eight of which were CAA conference games.
The team had to deal with many important vacancies left open
by last years graduates. They lost the majority of their veteran scor-
ing ability and the experience in goal. The Eagles were counting on
sophomore Scott Pearson, a second-team AJ1-CAA pick as a fresh-
man last year, to head up the group of talented and dangerous scor-
ers on the team. Through the first half of the season Pearson really
came through for the team. Included in his list of contributions

Schwartz to his left, Scott Pearson takes the ball to the

would have to be his second collegiate hat trick in their September 30
game against Howard. When the Eagles outshot Maryland 15-13,
Scott Pearson made the scoring goal. Kirk Friedrich also returned
with veteran expierience, and added to his reputation with a goal on
nationally ranked William and Mary. Kirk helped keep the team in
pace with the Tribe up through most of the game with the goal.
A major concern for coach Jenkins had to be the lack of experi-
ence that he was forced to put between the net at the beginning of the
season. Freshman goalkeeper, Jeff Angelucci has shown that freshman
doesn't mean inexperienced. When the game against Old Dominion
University on September 14 was completed, Angelucci had already
registered 47 saves on the year.
The problem for the '95 - '96 team has not been getting ahead;
it has been staying ahead. Although most of the Limelight usually
goes to forewards and goalies, the strongest parts of the team were the
midfielders and defenders. In turnovers, by midfielders like Bob
Schwartz, Jelf Americo, Kirk Friedrich, Jon Pascale, and Greg Lanza,
or the countless turnovers by defensive players like Todd Miller and
Stephen Franzke all keep the ball rolling. The strongest aspect of the
'95 - '96 men's team was its ability to keep the ball downfield no
matter how tough their opponent.

The '95 - '96 women's soccer team has taken advantage of the
experience that was gained through last season's 7-10-1 record estab-
lished against seven nationally-ranked teams. With ten returning
starters from last year's team, the Eagles had a firm foundation from
which to build the '95 - '96 squad. They were looking to capitalize of
that experience through yet another difficult schedule.
All through last year's season, the team started as many as seven
freshmen in it's line-up. With only one senior on this year's squad,
head coach Colleen Corwell again needed support from the younger
members of the squad.
Senior and team captain Eileen MacNeil, who has bee chosen as
a member of the All-CAA Second Team the past two seasons, was
expected to help stabilize the Eagle's defense this season, while junior
Julia Pike and sophomores Danielle Pini and Lisa Herndon were seen
as the necessary scoring punch for the team to be a force in the CAA.
Junior Shannon Davis, who is one of only three returning Eagles to
have started every one of last year's eighteen contests was MacNeil's
defensive partner.
The Eagles continue
to build this year
with a large number
of freshmen, and
a majority of under-
classmen. New
talent means big
improvement for the
lady Eagles.
to
One of the strongest aspects of the team
had to be the players between the posts. Al-
though junior goalkeeper Lisa Gervase jumped
to the forefront by mid-October leading the
CAA with 74 saves, there were always two fresh-
men standing in wait to back her up, Mari Hyde
and Maureen McCulloch. Through the combi-
nation of these three outstanding goalies the
team tallied up five shut-outs in the first half of
the season.
Led by Lisa Herndon in scoring, Lisa
Gervase in goal and Eileen MacNeil on defense,
the team was guaranteed improvement from the
previous season.

The greatest understatement possible at the beginning of
this year, would have had to have been that the hopes for the
American University field hockey team were high. The Eagles
were looking to soar even higher after finishing last years season
ranked 1 5th in the nation in this year's competition. The return
of AU's most-prolific scorer in school history, Stacey-Ann Sui
Butt, and an influx oi several top-notch international players
gave the Eagles a good start in that direction. It also benefitted
the team maintained nine of last year's starters and 80 percent of
their scoring output.

This year had to be a difficult year for
the women's volleyball team. Coming off its
best season in AU's history, they had some
unfinished business to take care of this year.
Even though they completed last year's season
with a 34-8 record, had a 23 game winning
streak and were the first team in our school's
history to represent AU in the National Invi-
tational Volleyball Championships, Coach
Goldberg's biggest challenges were left to be
accomplished during the '95 season.
At the beginning of the season Goldberg
was counting on his four returning players;
Francine Courtat, Sherita Hall, Jennifer
Conner, and Shannon Jaax; to really take con-
trol of the team. However, a serious back
problem placed a kink in his plans for the

Stepping to the foreground to fill the void
left by this unfortunate injury was Vendula
Kurcova. She is a six foot freshman from the
Czech Republic. Over the season she proved
herself worthy of thestarting position into which
she was thrust. However, on the evening of
October 21,1995, the Eagles suffered another
temporary set-back when Vendula blew out her
knee during their home match versus Virginia

Hockey
In the CAA semifinals AU falls to the ODU
Monarchs in overtime. The Eagles finished the
season 13-5, 4-2 CAA, compared to 7-10-2 just
two seasons ago. AU has really stepped up its
play with international players like Siu-Butt,
Virginia Casabo, and Julia Behr.
The 1995 season was the final season for
quite a few Eagles on the Field Hockey team,
Stacey Stets, Kelly Crossman, Kristen Frieswyk,
and Veronica Grigera. In their freshmen years
they were "on the brink of the big games...
entering overtime strong, and leaving losing,"
comments captain Kelly Crossman, now they
have turned itself into a nationally ranked team.
Soccer
Men
For the first time in six years, men's soccer
advanced to the semi-finals where they were
defeated by nationally ranked William and
Mary. In the course of the CAA tournament,
AU defeated Old Dominion. During the 1994—
1995 season, American was defeated by ODU
during first round competition.
American finished its regular season (5-3 CAA)
with wins against both UNCW and ECU.
Coach Bob Jenkins was very pleased with the
way the team was looking before the conference
tournament, and pointed out the depth on the
bench. Players like junior Jon Pascale, who
scored both second half goals, really add a lot of
depth to the Eagles line-up.

Introducing Mark Daven, the newly
appointed head swimming coach.
• Coach Daven brings with him a
sincere love for the sport, a hard working
attitude, and a team oriented attitude.
Daven, who has compiled an impressive
coaching resume including assistant with
a UCLA NCAA championship team,
possesses the winning attitude that could
inspire any team toward greatness. Davin
is persistant with stroke technique, and
uses video to show swimmers racing
strategies and their current stroke tech-
nique to compare to how they should be.
AU men's swim team is prob-
ably one of the most talented
varsity teams here at AU. We
have been undefeated for more
than a year and a half, almost
two years and I think that is a
record that no other teams have
equalled here at AU. —
co-captain Niels Jensen.
The underwater
scenes for Swimming
were captured from
8mm video, after
shot through a HI-8
camera and cope
scope.
Special thanks to Jeff
Akseizer of ATV for
the use of his HI-8
recorder.
With a new coach-
ing staff, and the
largest team in two
years, the Swim
and Dive team was
bound for greatness

"I look for the team to
make it to the Scottie
Duncan Memorial
Tournament and hope-
fully to the Eastern
Regionals, which is the
qualifying for the
NCAA."
"There is clearly more
talent on this team than
any AU team I've been a
part of and there's no
telling how far this team
could go. It is conceiv-
able that we could finish
in the top 25 in the
country."

There have been many changes on
campus from triple rooms to
a renovated Anderson Hall and
Mary Graydon Center. However,
one of the more subtle changes
that has occurred is in the
University Computing Center. I
sat down with Malek Malaikah,
director of UCC, to talk about
some of these changes.

/^vne was, "a disadvantage of speed. Mo-
^^ dems are not as quick as a LAN
card." This is due to the fact that a Lan
card acts as a direct connection to the
network. A modem, which uses a phone
line, tends to
be slower. However, the UCC spent time
working on a solution to this problem.
This was their main goal, for a while.
They wanted to ensure that all students
and faculty could have access to the
EagleNet to use things like word-process-
ing software and e-mail horn almost
any location.

Use of Eaglenet and
university labs has increased
dramatically over the years as
Media coverage of the World
Wide Web increased. The
value of the internet, as an
information sourcse and
communications medium, to
students, administration, and
faculty, has been realized by
the university.
Pict ured opposite, The Friedheim lab offers
use of its NeXT machines to its Communi-
cations students. There are multiple specialty
labs on campus in addition to the labs for

Roger Streitmatter
teacher of the year
Every year one professor is recognized for
their outstanding achievements and dedica-
tion to their students. For the 1995-1996
term, Professor Rodger Streitmatter received
this honorable distinction. Dr. Streitmatter is
a journalist and historian who has been a
member of the School of Communications
faculty for over fifteen years. He has received
two Fulbright Fellowships to teach American
Journalism in Moscow at Moscow State Uni-
versity and at the International Studies
University of Shanghai, China.
Professor Streitmatter learned of being
named as Scholar/Teacher of the Year while he
was still teaching in Shanghai in the Fall of
1994. He said he began to appreciate then,
during a discussion with one of his Chinese
students on American-style teaching, the
unique qualities of it. He said that American
professors personalize teaching while Chinese
teachers simply pontificate- "American profes-
sors are interested in what students think."
photo credtt:Amanda Hammerman
Streitmatter continued, "I have con-
tinued to think about teaching as a
personal process. [The] bedrock principle
of high quality teaching [is that] a teacher
tells students what he or she expects of
them and pushes them to reach that stan-
dard. A master teacher, on the other hand,
awakens a student's own expectations."
"I must reveal my
own gaps of
knowledge, my own
uncertainties, my
own unanswered
questions. To show
the students that I...
in short, am
human." — Roger
Streitmatter

January 27, at the Tracks
club, the Polyester

debuted "Trashn
Vaudville Style". PLO
shows have become
noteable for outrageous
fashions and exaggerated
play acting.At Tracks
PLO put on three fifteen
minute performances
of theatrics and dancing.
One show, featured
on the later page spread,
themed unconventionally
fabricated Japanese
Kimonos representing
several decades.
A fiftees Kimono made of
a red and white checked
table cloth. A sixties
Kimono was a brighdy
colored pattern of
flowers. Music as varied as
Swing and Duran Duran's
"Rio" accented the
Kimonos. The showserved
as a fundraiser for a
performance in New York
in which PLO would
perform withother groups
in a fashion extravaganza.

Backstage
Behind the scenes of Fashion
Sometimes the best moments of a theatric production don't happen on the stage. Opening night brings out
the fustration and anxiety in all involved, but also some of funniest, cutest and most touching moments that the
cast and crew share. But as mere audience viewers, we never get a backstage look at what happens before those
curtains rise. So let us take this chance to go behind the scenes of this year's AU players production of Fashion.

Most graduates,
on their day of
commencement, have
been anxious for the
moment they walk to
recieve their degree
for a long time —
anxious because they
fear an uncertain
future or because
of excitement —
those last anxious
moments seem to
linger in the air,
the seconds nearly
standing still, wait-
ing— and then it s
over, and life con-
tinues once more.

thing memories
are made of: good

You will be as great as the dreams
you dream, As great as the love you
hear; As great as the values you
redeem, and the happiness you share.
You will be as great as the thoughts
you think, As the worth you will
attain; as the fountains which your
spirity drinks and the insight you will
gain. You will be as great as the truth
you speak, As great as the help you *
will give; As great as the destiny you
will seek, As great as the life you live.
Love Always Your Family,
Mrs. Annie Blair

Thanks Guys

As Life progresses, it seems so easy
for brothers to drift from each
other. But our relationship has
proved too strong and I believe we
will always be the best of friends,
even when I am in my most an-
noying state. I am very proud and
not very surprised of who you have
grown into. Thankyou for every-
thing, for you have given me a lot.
Love, Scott
We met in class neither of us
wanted to take. When you first
smiled at me, I knew I wanted to
know more. When you held my
hand, I knew I was in love and
there was no turning back. From
that day on, we have had so much
fun together. With each day that
passes, I love you more and more!
Love Always,
Crissy
(B.L.)
Danny
Wow! The last four years have gone by so fast. You never cease
to amaze us; with each year you grow more handsome, inquisi-
tive and loving. The time we spend together is treasured dearly.
You seem to be welcoming responsibility, which makes us very
proud. You're a great friend and confidant to your brother and
truly a friend to everyone you love.
You have also made us happy by announcing your engagement
to Crissy. We love and cherish the two of you. So, we toast to
your happiness and success. You are more than a son, You are
also a wonderful friend.

There is no such
thing as a 9 to 5
emergency.
Accidents and illness can happen at any time of the
day or night. And when they do, every minute counts.
That's why Sibley's emergency service is open 24
hours-a-day, every day. We are staffed around the
clock with physicians and nurses who are trained to
handle emergencies. And we're easy to get to... just
minutes away.
Emergency services at Sibley Memorial Hospital.
24 hours-a-day, every day. Because emergencies
don't keep regular hours.
