The  1991-92  year  at  the  University  of 
Maryland,  College  Park,  began  as  any 
other.  Thousands  of  sun-bronzed  students 
poured  back  onto  campus  into 
classrooms.  Grumbling  was  heard  from 
those  students  who  had  to  trek  all  the 
way  from  Easton  Hall  to  ttie  Physics 
building  for  an  eight  o'clock  class.  Shrieks 
of  pain  and  despair  could  be  heard  all 
over  campus  from  the  Armory  as 
students  suffered  through  wait-list  or 
drop-add.  Yes,  another  fall  had  come  to 
the  University  of  Maryland. 

This  year  was  different  though.  The 
campus  was  marked  by  many  distinctive 
new  changes.  In  an  effort  to  become  a 
premier  public  university  in  the  nation. 
College  Park  was  beseiged  by 
remarkable  changes. 

Construction  was  the  most  prevailing 
mark  of  change.  The  newly  renovated 
Byrd  Stadium  was  the  most  distinctive 
mark  of  construction  or,  campus.  Dor- 
chester Hall  was  reopened  as  the  Inter- 
national House  and  the  Surge  Building 
opened  to  provide  more  class  spxace. 
Also  under  construction:  McKeldin  Library, 
the  new  Animal  Sciences  building,  the 
new  Business  building,  and  the  con- 
vergence of  Anne  Arundel  Hall  into  an 
honors  residence  hall. 

Other  distinctive  changes  were  caused 
by  the  massive  budget  cuts  which  hit  the 
campus.  Class  sizes  were  larger  and 
fewer  sections  were  offered  due  to  the 
cutbacks.  Students  were  targeted  with 
tuition  hikes  in  order  to  alleviate  some  of 
the  budget  deficit.  These  changes,  along 
with  the  yearly  gripes  about  parking  and 
textbook  costs,  generated  some  mixed 
feelings  about  the  university. 

Although  the  budget  cuts  severely 
dampened  students  spirits,  the  University 
of  Maryland  continued  its  drive  to 
become  "A  Mark  of  Distinction" 
throughout  the  country.

Student  life 


Whether  it  was  cheering  for  a  favorite 
sports  team,  cramming  in  Hornbake's 
24-hour  study  room,  strolling  across 
McKeldin  Moll,  taking  part  in  a  protest,  or 
just  hanging  out  at  the  Union,  UM  student 
life  took  on  various  characteristics. 

Students  came  to  the  University  of 
Maryland  from  all  50  states  and  111  coun- 
tries; bringing  with  them  their  distinct 
cultural,  religious,  social,  political  and 
academic  interests.  Plus,  300  clubs  and 
organizations  helped  develop  a  variety 
of  these  interests  and  more. 

All  over  campus,  UM  students  found  ac- 
tivities to  express  their  own  distinctive 
style.  Some  took  part  in  theatrical  or 
dance  performances  and  athletic  teams. 
Some  wrote  for  campus  publications. 
Others  chose  working  on  campus  to  help 
balance  their  academic  schedules  and 
pay  their  bills.  Many  joined  fraternities  and 
sororities;  and  still  others  just  took  part  in 
every  UM  students  pastime,  partying! 

Whatever  the  interest,  hobby,  or  activi- 
ty, UM  students  did  their  best  this  year  to 
make  their  own  "Mark  of  Distinction"  on 
College  Park. 


September  Btues 


The  beginning  of  September  comes 
with  the  start  of  a  fresh,  new  school  year. 
Perhaps  it  is  full  of  anticipation,  eagerness, 
anxiety  or  a  sense  of  uncertainty  for  what 
lies  ahead.  Unfortunately,  this  also  means 
an  end  to  the  carefree  days  of  fun,  sun, 
parties,  beaches,  and  relaxation. 

Making  the  transition  from  those 
problem-free  summer  months  to  the 
routine  of  classes,  hard  work,  and 
headaches  can  be  difficult. 

Those  first  hours,  days,  and  weeks  are 
crucial  in  starting  off  the  year  on  the  right 
foot.  It  is  then  that  our  "dream"  unfolds. 
On  the  first  day  of  classes,  one  manages 
to  make  it  to  class  on  time,  perhaps  five 
or  ten  minutes  early,  as  they  are  all  within 
close  walking  distance  from  each  other.  I 
one  decides  to  drop  a  class  or  switch 
sections,  a  simple  trip  to  the  Mitchell 
Building  is  no  problem!  Strolling  up  the 
counter,  the  schedule  changes  go 
through  without  a  single  hitch.  What  an 
accomplishment! 

Buying  books  is  the  next  task.  One  walks 
into  the  book  store  and  meanders  down 
the  deserted  isles  to  pick  up  the  books  -- 
finding  numerous  used  copies. 

Commuters  go  to  the  Department  of 
Campus  Parking  to  buy  a  permit.  Within 
five  minutes,  one  walkes  out  with  a  permit 
for  Lot  T  Campus  residents  arrive  a  few 


days  before  classes  and  hit  it  off  famously 
with  their  roommate.  Both  are  neat  and 
organized! 

What  happens  next?  Reality  hits,  like  a 
slap  in  the  face.  Could  any  student 
believe  that  this  could  really  happen? 
Some  might,  but  not  anyone  who  has  at- 
tended classes  on  the  first  day. 

Realistically,  the  first  day  of  classes,  one 
actually  wakes  up  dreading  the  confu- 
sion and  lines  off  the  first  day.  Commuters 
rush  out  of  the  house  already  ten  minutes 
late,  driving  towards  campus  with  the 
pedal  to  the  floor.  Thousands  of  other 
students  are  doing  the  same.  There  is  on 
accident  blocking  the  lanes,  and  frustra- 
tion set  in.  Finally  one  arrives  on  campus, 
already  late  for  class.  The  only  parking 
left  is  way  out  in  Lot  4.  One  then 
remembers  that  their  first  class  is  in  the 
dance  building,  on  the  other  side  of  cam- 
pus! 

For  campus  residents,  the  experience  is 
somewhat  different.  Students  arrive  the 
night  before  classes  to  find  their  room- 
mate has  already  moved  in  and  pro- 
ceeded to  fill  up  75  percent  of  the  room 
with  miscellaneous  JUNK.  By  the  end  of 
the  night  there  has  already  been  several 
disagreements  on  how  to  arrange  the 
room.

MITCHELL   BUILDING 


Back  To  School 


As  morning  approaches,  the  alarm 
does  not  go  off.  one  jumps  out  of  bed  on- 
ly to  find  a  line  to  take  a  shower.  One 
evidently  enters  class  late  and  is  forced 
to  sit  in  the  bock  of  a  large  lecture  hall, 
where  the  professor  cannot  be  heard  nor 
seen. 

After  classes  are  over,  it  is  oft  to  Add- 
Drop.  One  heads  over  to  the  dreaded  Ar- 
mory. The  line  has  wrapped  itself  around 
six  or  seven  times.  An  hour  later,  one  has 
only  moved  three  feet. 

Sometime  later,  much  later,  one 
reaches  the  front  to  find  the  class  is  clos- 
ed and  cannot  be  waitlisted.  Another 
class  can  actually  be  waitlisted,  however, 
one  would  be  number  ninety-four!  After 
standing  in  line  for  over  two  hours,  one 
walks  out  feeling  a  sense  of  despair 
There's  no  hope  of  getting  that  class. 


Heading  over  to  the  book  store, 
students  must  fight  their  way  into  the  tex- 
tbook section.  Theaisles  are  crammed 
with  people.  Only  new  editions  ore 
available  for  seventy  dollars!  For  the  next 
class  the  book  will  not  be  in  for  another 
two  to  three  weeks.  The  cashier  rings  up 
the  total  and  students  immediately 
become  heart  attack  victims.  There  goes 
all  that  hard  earned  money! 

In  reality,  the  Department  of  Campus 
Parking  has  a  line  outside  and  down  the 
sidewalk.  An  hour  later.  Lot  4  permit  in 
hand,  students  return  to  their  car  to  find 
parking  tickets  covering  the  windshield. 

Well,  thinking  bock,  maybe  it  was  not  all 
that  bad.  (Yes  it  was!)  But,  from  some, 
there  are  many  more  first  days  to  come. 
Just  remember,  "If  you  ore  not  standing  in 
line...  you  are  in  the  wrong  place!"

Artisticaiiy 
Distinct 

Art  Attack  1991 


Thousands  of  students  hod  o  terrific 
reason  for  being  late  to  class  May  3, 1991. 
Their  roommate  did  not  eat  their 
homework,'  nor  were  they  swept  away  by 
extraterrestrials  on  LaPlata  Beach.  They 
had  on  Art  Attack! 

If  you  were  one  of  the  myriads  of  peo- 
ple who  took  over  an  hour  to  walk  across 
McKeldin  Mall  on  that  windy,  sunny  day, 
you  too  were  enticed  by  the  colorful 
sights,  aromatic  smells,  and  harmonizing 
sounds  of  Art  Attack. 

The  festival,  sponsored  by  SEE  Produc- 
tions, featured  a  diversity  of  cultural  at- 
tractions which  followed  this  year's 
theme  -  "A  Cultural  Collage." 

Two  huge  tents,  assembled  on  the 
bustling  McKeldin  grass,  contained  hun- 
dred of  visual,  culinary,  and  muscial  artists 
who  gathered  to  share  a  little  of  their 
cultural  spice  with  College  Park. 

Local  craftspeople  and  students 
displayed  a  variety  of  works,  from  fashion 
to  studio  art.  Groups  representing  French, 
Spanish,  Chinese,  Middle  Eastern,  and 
other  cultures  offered  information,  food 
and  music  to  curious  onlookers. 

Hundreds  of  student  groups  were 
represented,  including:  the  Student 
Government  Association,  Amnesty  Inter- 
national, Earth  Day  and  others. 

Later  in  the  day,  Testudo  himself  was 
rockin'  as  the  sounds  of  MoJo  Nya 
(meaning  "for  the  purpose  of  unity"  in 
Swahili),  the  Corib  Sounds  Steel  Orchestra 
and  the  John  Cephas  and  Phil  Wiggins 
blues  duo  brought  students  together  to 
"chill  out"  and  let  loose  in  the  cool  even- 
ing air. 

Art  Attack,  now  entering  its  ninth  year 
of  production,  aims  to  expose  students  to 
cultures  that  they  may  not  hove  been 
aware  of  before.  Learning  about  others  is 
a  daily  process  at  the  University  of 
Maryland,  but  with  so  much  new  to 
discover,  there  is  always  a  cause  for 
celebration! 


Campus  Careers 


Every  semester  students  are  expected 
to  pull  withdraw  more  and  more  money 
I  out  ot  dwindling  checking  accounts  to 
cover  rising  costs  of  tuition.  As  a  result, 
campus  employment  at  the  University  of 
Maryland  has  become  a  popular  way  to 
earn  extra  money. 

The  possibilities  for  campus  employ- 
ment are  endless.  For  example.  Resident 
Life,  Dining  Services,  Shuttle  UM,  the 
University  Book  Center,  Campus  Recrea- 
tional Facilities,  and  the  Campus  Library 
System  hire  myriads  of  students  to  help 
handle  the  workload. 

Many  students  seem  pleased  with  their 
employment  as  it  provides  o  break  from 
the  hustle  and  bustle  of  attending  classes 
and  completing  homework.  For  students 
who  prefer  to  work  at  home,  the  Deport- 
ment of  Resident  Life  offers  positions  as 
Residents  Assistants  (RA)  and  Desk 
Receptionists  (DR).  Life  as  on  RA  is  a  large 
time  commitment,  sometimes  requiring 
OS  much  as  24  hours  a  day.  One  RA,  Ralph 


Poden,  explains,  "It  seems  like  you're  at 
work  whenever  you're  at  home.  But  it's  a 
fun  job."  One  cannot  complain  when  the 
compensation  is  full  room  and  board!  Be- 
ing on  RA  provides  students  with  the  op- 
portunity to  help,  meet  and  work  with  a 
vast  number  of  diverse  individuals. 

Other  jobs  require  punching  in  at  the 
office  or  a  store.  For  example,  the  Univer- 
sity Book  Center  hires  students  to  help 
with  customer  service,  stocking  the  sup- 
plies and  textbooks  as  well  as  cashiering. 
Amy  Reidy,  a  long-time  employee  of  the 
Book  Center,  says,  "You  work  with  a  lot  of 
interesting  people,  and  for  a  certain  port 
of  the  day,  you  are  a  part  of  a  closeknit 
family.  Plus,  you  get  your  expenses  paid!" 

Most  students  find  campus  employers 
to  be  reasonably  flexible  because 
students  ore  here  to  learn  first  and 
foremost. 

Some  students  would  rather  not  stay  in 
the  same  place  for  six  straight  hours.  Shut- 
tle   UM    provides    a    more    scenic    at- 


mosphere and  a  great  opportunity  for 
the  student  who  enjoys  driving  and  being 
"King  of  the  Rood".  Every  evening.  Shuttle 
UM  operates  routes  around  campus  and 
to  numerous  points  in  between.  With  so 
many  students  getting  off  and  on,  every 
shift  is  different,  especially  those  2:00 
a.m.  shifts  on  weekend  nights  when  the 
driver  is  the  only  sober  person  on  the  bus. 

For  the  sports  fanatic.  Campus  Recrea- 
tion Services  is  a  dream  come  true.  CRS 
offers  a  wide  variety  of  employment 
ranging  from  lifeguarding  to  officiating  in- 
tramural athletics.  One  can  sometimes 
get  in  shape  while  on  the  clock! 

Campus  jobs,  as  with  most  jobs,  help 
cover  rising  expenses  and  offer  the  op- 
portunity to  interact  with  individuals  who 
share  a  common  interest.  The  pay  at 
many  campus  employment  areas  is  well 
above  the  minimum  wage,  but  best  of  all 
a  job  can  become  a  valuable  asset  to 
add  to  your  resume. 


Resident  Assistants 


What  does  R-A-  stand  for  to  most 
students?  Some  may  thiink  it  means 
Rhinocerous  Ankles,  or  Resident  Alcoholic, 
or  Resident  Abuser.  But,  for  those  who 
have  knocked  on  that  door  in  the  hour  of 
need,  it  means  Resident  Assistant.  Now  a 
popular  form  of  employment,  resident 
assistants  have  a  lucrative  job  which  pays 
full  room  and  board.  This  truly  inviting  offer 
does  require  its  share  of  work,  but  none- 
the-less  it  is  a  popular  form  of  campus 
employment. 

Debbie  Bond,  a  government  and 
politics  major,  is  a  Resident  Assistant  on 
the  third  floor  of  Worcester  Hall.  She  says, 
the  best  part  of  being  on  RA  is,  "meeting 
people  and  learning  how  to  work  with 
others  helping  people  get  along  with 
each  other."  Whether  its  helping  solve  a 
roomote  dispute,  holding  unit  meetings 
to  discuss  Resident  rules  and  regulations, 
or  just  being  someone  that  the  residents 


can  confide  in,  an  RA's  job  is  never  easy. 

As  most  RA's  would  agree,  the  job 
comes  with  tremendous  amounts  of 
bureaucratic  "red  tope",  which  can  be  a 
hassle.  Jen  Paula,  a  junior,  and  RA  on  the 
second  floor  of  Worcester  Hall,  explains, 
"the  amount  of  bureaucracy  and  red 
tape  that  we  have  to  go  through 
definately  gets  in  the  way  of  the  job  and 
limits  the  amount  of  time  I  con  spend  with 
my  residents." 

Does  the  job  become  more  stressful 
when  academics  get  hectic?  Debbie 
soys,  "Yes!  It  definately  does,  so  you  have 
to  make  sure  that  you  budget  your  time 
properly."  Jen  takes  a  slightly  different 
approach,  looking  for  a  "balance  in  my 
life  so  that  everything  is  not  just  study, 
study,  study  or  work,  work,  work."  Addi- 
tionally, both  agree  that  working  on  cam- 
pus is  a  plus  for  interacting  and  function- 
ing within  the  campus  community.

TFie  ptoce  to  50 


The  Adele  H,  Stamp  Student  Union 
Customer  Bill  of  Righits  states,  "As  you 
enter  thie  Stamp  Student  Union,  you  con 
expect. ..A  clean,  comfortable,  safe  and 
attractive  building;  friendly  and 
courteous  service;  an  informed  and 
resourceful  staff;  a  consistent  and  predic- 
table level  of  service;  tt^e  opportunity  to 
participate  in  a  brood  array  of  activities; 
and  the  right  to  be  heard  and  receive 
appropriate  responses." 

The  Stamp  Student  Union  does  just  that. 
With  an  influx  of  over  17,000  people  dai- 
ly, the  Union  is  the  center  of  student 
socials,  cultural  programs,  educational 
courses,  as  well  as  film  and  offbeat  enter- 
tainment. The  Union  has  consistently  striv- 
ed  to  become  the  community  cultural 
center  of  College  Park.  It  successfully  of- 
fers diverse  and  exciting  opportunities  for 
everyone. 

The  main  goal  of  the  Union  is  to  support 
the  general,  academic  and  social 
welfare  of  the  students.  To  maintain  this 
objective,  the  Union  has  become  a  stu- 
dent service  center.  Here,  there  is  a  food 
court  area,  commuter  lounge,  and  postal 
and  banking  conveniences. 

In  addition,  the  Union  sustains  a  fully 
staffed  Information  Center;  where  re- 
quests for  campus  assistance  ore  fulfilled. 
Over  25  percent  of  the  students  take  ad- 
vantage of  this  service  daily,  while  nearly 
30  percent  of  students  visit  the  desk 
throughout  the  week. 

The  Ticket  Center  conveniently  pro- 
vides tickets  to  upcoming  concerts,  ploys, 
and  train  and  bus  tickets.  The  Union  Shop 
offers  snacks,  a  flower  shop,  and  current 
issues  of  magazines.  The  University  Book 
Center  supplies  the  academic 
necessities,  as  well  as  a  Terrapin  clothes 
shop.  To  aid  students,  the  union  has 
created  a  24-hour  study  facility,  and  suc- 
cessfully implemented  a  recycling 
program. 

To  increase  the  impact  of  the  Union  on 
campus,  the  creation  of  the  Student 
Union  Program  Council  (SUPC)  en- 
courages the  awareness  of  other  cultural 
groups,  world  issues  and  entertainment. 
Implementing  over  200  programs  yearly, 
this    student    volunteer    organization 


augments  the  choices  available  to 
students  at  College  Park.  With  nine  in- 
dividual sub-committees,  the  SUPC  pro- 
motes diversity  as  well  as  an  opportunity 
for  students  to  gain  leadership 
experience. 

The  Issues  and  Answers  committee  en- 
courages students  to  probe  current 
social  issues  by  provoking  student  opinion 
in  lectures  and  workshops. 

The  Premier  Productions  committee 
organizes  campus  sporting  events,  such 
as  the  Terrapin  Trot  5K  Rood  Race  and 
the  UMCP  Bodybuilding  Contest. 

In  addition,  the  Visual  Arts  committee 
invites  students  to  express  their  creativity 
through  mural  paintings,  art  demonstra- 
tions, and  various  artistic  competitions. 

The  SUPC  also  sponsors  Glass  Onion 
Concerts,  where  different  music  groups 
ore  invited  to  perform. 

Also,  there  is  an  Outdoor  Recreation 
Committee,  that  plans  outings  for  the 
adventurous.  Activities  are  planned  such 
as  hong  gliding,  white  water  rafting  and 
sailploning. 

A  main  objective  of  the  Stamp  Union  is 
to  enhance  intercultural  awareness  on 
and  off  campus.  With  this  in  mind,  a 
Cultural  Events  committee  plans  dances, 
performances,  film  series  and  other  ac- 
tivities for  students. 

The  SUPC  also  oversees  the  200 
cultural  and  educational  clubs  of  the 
campus.  In  addition  to  working  with  cam- 
pus groups  such  as  SEE  Productions,  SGA, 
fraternities  and  sororities,  SUPC  created 
Nite  Life,  a  three  day  entertainment 
avenue  for  students.  This  alcohol-free 
pub  enhances  campus  spirit,  through  a 
comedy  nite,  a  concert  nite  and  a  dance

There  ore  also  various  centers  within 
the  Union  that  help  it  to  achieve  its  well- 
roundedness.  The  Hoff  Theatre  presents 
popular  films  at  a  student  rote.  This  year  it 
celebrated  its  20th  anniversary  with  dis- 
count matinees.  Also,  the  theatre  shows 
forein  films,  golden  oldies,  and  off-beat 
midnight  movie  entertainment.  However, 
its  most  popular  feature  is  the  free  sneak 
previews  of  yet-to-be-releosed  films. 

The  Parent's  Association  Gallery  ex- 
plores various  themes  in  its  exhibits,  in- 
cluding art,  photography,  educational

The  Recreation  Center,  found  in  the 
basement  of  the  Union,  offers  bowling, 
billiards  and  even  an  arcade  to  relieve 
stress,  improve  fitness  and  plain  old  fun! 

While  the  Union  is  continually  striving  for 
improvements,  it  has  successfully  com- 
bined all  different  aspects  of  student  life 
at  the  University  of  Maryland.  In  ac- 
comodating students'  welfare,  it  has  also 
implemented  various  diverse  projects  for 
all  to  partake,  organize  and  enjoy. 


Weekend  Hiqfdiqhts 


Of  course,  during  the  week,  all  of  the 
University  of  Maryland's  students  are  in 
the  library  studying  hard  (...well,  maybe 
not  everybody)  but,  when  the  weekend 
comes  around,  they  know  how  to  let 
loose  and  have  a  good  time!  In  addition 
to  the  hot  spots  in  College  Park,  UM's  pro- 
ximity to  Baltimore,  Annapolis  and 
Washington  D.C.  make  its  weekends 
anything  but  dull. 

Ask  any  DM  student  and  they  can  tell 
you  that  a  party  can  be  found  anywhere 
and  anytime  if  one  looks  hard  enough! 
Big  parties  off  campus  or  smaller  parties 
on  campus  --  no  matter  what  kind. 
University  of  Maryland  students  will  be 
there! 

The  many  fraternity  and  sorority 
chapters  offer  a  party  source  for  some, 
and  for  others.  Route  1  bars  call.  Whether 
they  go  to  Bentley's,  Santa  fe,  the  Cellar 
or  the  'Vous,  students  sure  can  drink,  and 
drink  they  do! 

Each  of  the  bars  on  the  Route  attract 
their  own;  the  Cellar  has  a  dance  floor, 
while  at  Santa  Fe,  the  crowd  is  more 
relaxed.  Students  wear  their  "Vous  shoes" 
to  protect  them  from  the  floor  of  College 
Park's  most  popular  bar,  often  a  hang  out 
for  many  fraternity  and  sorority  members, 
and  Bentley's  crowd  offers  a  good  mix  of 
people  as  well  as  a  good  bar. 


No  matter  how  fun  College  Park  can 
be,  nobody  likes  the  same  old  thing  every 
weekend.  The  Metro  makes  travel  easy 
for  anyone  who  decides  to  miss  out  on 
the  College  Park  weekend  scene. 
Washington  offers  a  great  alternative. 
When  Friday  rolls  around,  it's  easy  to  head 
to  Georgetown  or  D.C.  to  hit  the  bars  to 
go  "clubbing".  The  world  famous  Hard 
Rock  Cafe  is  a  popular  spot,  not  to  men- 
tion    Chicago's    or    the    Dome. 

Washington  is  not  just  for  night  life.  Our 
nation's  capital  offers  many  daytime  at- 
tractions. Students  join  tourists  from  all 
over  the  United  States  and  the  world  as 
they  visit  the  many  popular  Smithsonian 
museums,  government  buildings  like  the 
Capital  Building  and  the  White  House, 
and  national  monuments  like  the  Viet- 
nam memorial.  Washington  D.C.  also  of- 
fers other  attractions  such  as  the  Na- 
tional Zoo. 

Another  weekend  spot  for  day  or  even- 
ing is  the  capital  of  Maryland  -  Annapolis. 
Also  a  short  trip  away,  Annapolis  offers 
something  for  everyone.  Downtown  Inner 
Harbor  Annapolis  still  has  brick  streets, 
and  vintage  shops  that  sell  practically 
every  Maryland  knickknock  ever  made. 
Many  visitors  also  like  to  tour  the  United 
States  Naval  academy  and  catch  a 
glimpse  of  the  mid-shipmen,  A  great  way

Kekase 

Pfoces  to  See 


to  spend  a  Saturday  is  to  octets  a  boot 
shovj  in  the  harbor  during  the  day,  and 
dine  in  one  of  the  many  terrific 
restaurants  before  going  home. 

If  you  lil<e  to  eat  out,  the  port  city  of 
Baltimore  is  another  favorite  place  to  go 
on  the  weekend.  Just  a  bit  further  away, 
Baltimore  ofters  so  many  restaurants  and 
bars  that  a  UM  student  could  never  try  all 
of  them  in  their  years  at  College  Park. 
One  of  the  best  areas  to  eat  out  is  Fell's 
Point.  Just  across  the  harbor  is  Baltimore's 
most  famous  tourist  attraction,  the  Inner 
Harbor.  Paddle  boat  rentals,  the  National 
Aquarium,  Science  Center,  and  Harbor 
Place,  two  pavilions  of  restaurants  and 
shops,  are  all  found  in  the  Inner  Harbor, 
Just  across  the  street  is  the  relatively  new 
Galleria,  another  center  for  popular 
shops  and  eateries. 

Baltimore  is  also  the  home  of  the 
Baltimore  Orioles!  Major  league  baseball 
fans  can  head  to  Memorial  Stadium 
(traditional  home  of  university  of 
Maryland  vs.  Penn  State  football)  to 
catch  a  game. 

Sports  fans  of  any  kind  can  be  made 
happy  at  the  University  of  Maryland.  Be- 
ing close  to  both  Baltimore,  Annapolis 
and  D.C.  makes  sports  like  professional 
ice  hockey,  basketball,  football,  baseball 
and  soccer  readily  accessible  to  those 
who  need  a  change  from  college  sports. 

As  a  matter  of  fact.  College  Park's 
great  location  makes  just  about  any 
weekend  activity  possible.  From  drinking 
'til  you  drop  in  College  Park,  to  learning 
about  marine  mammals  at  the  National 
Aquarium  in  Baltimore,  there  are  myriads 
of  exciting  activities.  On  can  also  meet 
the  middies  in  Annapolis,  or  appreciate 
fine  art  in  Washington  D.C,  museums  and 
galleries.  UM  students  can  do  it  all!  Maybe 
that's  why  everyone  know  that  University 
of  Maryland  students  hove  so  much  fun!

Terp  fans  get  psyched!  The  home  of 
Maryland's  men  in  red  and  white  is  beef- 
ed up.  spiffed  up.  and  ready  to  go!  Phase

The  initial  phase  of  Byrd  Stadium's 
facelift  carried  a  price  tag  of  SlO.l  million. 
The  good  news  for  students  is  that  the 
money  was  raised  entirely  through  a 
capital  campaign  which  was  matched 
dollar-for-dollar  by  the  Maryland  state 
legislature. 

Among  the  many  proposed  changes, 
Terp  enthusiasts  can  expect  a  14,000 
seat  upper  deck  to  be  added  to  the 
north  side  of  the  field  sometime  in  the 
future.

LIMCP  Receiver  a  Facelift 


students  returning  for  classes  in  the  fall 
of  1991  saw  a  variety  of  physical  changes 
in  their  campus.  The  North  Hill  residence 
halls,  Dorchester  and  Anne  Arundel,  are 
both  in  a  continuing  state  of  change.  The 
construction  of  the  rew  Animal  Sciences 
Building  in  North  Campus,  that  opened  to 
students  in  January  of  1992  served  to  cen- 
tralize undergraduate  teaching  for  that 
department.  Also,  due  to  renovations  in 
Taliaferro  Hall,  the  English  and  American 
Studies  Departments  have  been 
relocated  to  the  South  Campus  Surge 
Building. 

Dorchester  Hall  reopened  its  doors  for 
the  fall  after  one  year  of  renovations.  It 
novi/  houses  Maryland's  International 
House.  It  hopes  to  bring  foreign  and 
American  students  closer  together  in  a 
closeknit  living  and  learning  environment. 
The  155  students  at  the  "l-House"  come 
from  32  countries  around  the  v»/orld; 
although  60  percent  of  the  residents  are 
American.  Residents  come  to  College 
Park  from  diverse  places  as  Indonesia, 
China,  Cyprus,  Italy,  Argentina,  Estonia, 
England,  Thailand,  Japan,  and  India. 

The  renovations  to  Dorchester  v^^ere  ex- 
tensive over  the  post  year.  The  three 
floor  hall  nov/  has  its  ov^/n  fully  equipped 
kitchen,  two  student  lounges,  a  social 
room,  a  study  room,  an  apartment  to 
house  visiting  international  scholars,  and 
above  all;  air  conditioning. 

The  l-House  came  into  being  after 
years  of  planning  led  predominantly  by 
Coordinator  Susan  Cafe  workirtg  with  the 
University's  International  Education 
Service, 

Dorchester  residents  quickly  created 
and  elected  the  Internatioral  House 
Council  (IHC)  to  program  and  coordinate 
cultural  activities  for  the  hall's  first  year. 
"The  main  objective  of  the  IHC  lies  in  the 
stimulation  and  strenthening  of  inter- 
cultural  unity  throughout  the  residence 
hall  and  ultimately  the  entire  university 
community,"  said  IHC  President  Ralph 
Brenner,  a  senior  electrical  engineering 
major. 

Also  in  the  North  Hill  area,  Anne  Arundel 
Hall  continued  renovations  during  the 
1991-1992  school  year.  Scheduled  to  open 
in  Fall  of  1992,  Anne  Arundel  will  be  the 
first  Honors  Dorm  for  students  living  in  the 
residence  halls.  It  will  seek  to  unite  125

post,  there  hove  been  oil-honors  floors  in 
some  of  the  North  Campus  high  rises 
such  OS  Eoston,  Hogerstown,  and 
Cumberlarxj. 

The  completion  of  construction  of  the 
new  Animal  Sciences  Building  is  truly  the 
actualization  of  a  plan  started  in  1970  for 
housing  one  of  the  smallest  departments 
in  the  university.  With  this  nevj  building. 
Phase  II  vy/os  completed,  giving  the 
Animal  Science  Department's  125 
undergraduate  and  35  graduate 
students  a  multitude  of  nevj  facilities. 
Among  the  additions  were  four  new 
classrooms,  a  student  lounge,  reading 
room,  computer  facilities,  and  a  com- 
puter teaching  laboratory.  "The  building 
added  four  new  animal  research 
laboratories,  designed  to  meet  current 
Notional  Institute  of  Health  standards  in 
the  field,"  said  Dr.  Dennis  Westhoff,  Chair- 
man of  the  Animal  Sciences  Department. 
Before  this  addition,  teaching  in  the 
department  hod  been  scattered  in  dif- 
ferent buildings  around  campus.  The  con- 
struction of  this  new  building  will  serve  to 
centralize  teaching  and  to  give  the 
department  a  home. 

Under  the  now  obsolete.  "NO  BLOOD 
FOR  OIL"  poster  on  the  main  door  of 
Taliaferro  Hall  read  another,  more  official 
sign:  "STOP  -  English  Dept.  and  American 
Studies  now  located  in  the  South  Cam- 
pus Surge  Building  -  Behind  S.  Campus 
Dining  Hall."  Short  and  to  the  point,  it  ex- 
plained the  consequences  of  the 
renovations  planned  for  Taliaferro  Hall 
over  the  next  three  years.  Taliaferro,  a 
building  usually  full  of  English  majors  and 
aspiring  liberal  artists,  was  silent  this  fall 
awaiting  major  repairs  to  its  halls  and 
rooms.  The  hall  is  in  desperate  need  of 
replacement  lighting,  new  floors,  and  im- 
proved air  conditioning  in  some  spots, 
and  for  first  time  installation  in  others. 
Engish  and  American  Studies  classes 
were  held  in  the  brand  new  Surge 
Building.  The  new  location  is  "just  great" 
according  to  sources  within  the  English 
Department.  "Despite  the  obsense  of 
Taliaferro's  atmosphere..."  life  is  just  fine  in 
the  modern  Surge  Building,  according  t 
Janet  Duncan,  the  English  Department 
Administrative  Personnel  and  Facilities 
Coordinator.

Marching  to  a  Different  Beat 

UM  Marching  Band  Shines  Above  the  Rest 


The  Marching  Band,  also  known  as  the 
"Mighty  Sound  of  Maryland,"  represents 
the  University  at  varied  occasions  and 
performs  at  all  home  football  gomes. 

Founded  in  1909,  by  nineteen  musicians 
at  the  Maryland  Agricultural  College, 
UM's  Bond  now  has  175  students. 

Bond  members  put  in  over  lO  hours  of 
practice  per  week  leading  up  to  a  Satur- 
day home  game.  The  students  are  a  port 
of  the  Band  as  a  two  credit  class.  But,  few 
musicians  take  it  for  credit  alone,  as  the 
time  commitment  can  be  heavy. 

Each  season  the  Band  travels  with  the 
football  team  to  one  away  gome.  This 
year,  the  band  travelled  to  Georgia  Tech. 

Travelling  is  one  of  the  best  parts  of  be- 
ing in  the  band,  according  to  junior 
Michael  Ahr,  a  saxophone  player.  Ahr 
described  Atlanta  as  "a  toursit  trap  from 
Hell,"  due  to  the  World  Series.  According 
to  Ahr,  Georgia  Tech  members  were  ex- 
tremely impressed  by  UM's  marching 
bond.  They  asked  if  Band  members  were 
music  majors  on  scholarships.  But,  most 
Band  students  are  not  music  majors. 

The  Band  is  considered  the  best  in  the 
ACC,  by  many  in  the  field.  "The  quality  of 
the   music   stems   from   the   members' 


dedication  to  practices,"  said  one  stu- 
dent. Also,  members  see  the  bond  as  a 
long  term  commitment.  Especially  since 
Athletic  Director  Andy  Geiger  allowed 
four  year  marchers  to  receive  varsity 
letters. 

The  current  success  of  the  Marching 
Bond  also  has  a  lot  to  do  with  Bond  Direc- 
tor Dr.  Richmond  Sparks.  Although  much 
of  the  Band's  functioning  is  handled  by 
members,  the  Director's  "enthusiastic" 
expertise  is  critical,  one  musician  claimed. 
"He  knows  how  to  motivate,"  said 
sopomore  Emily  Mellgren,  a  saxophone 
player.  The  leadership  responsibility  is 
delegated  by  the  Director  to  three  Drum 
Majors  in  charge  of  the  different  musical 
sections.  The  1991-1992  Drum  Majors  were 
David  Lou,  Somontho  Zonger  and  Fred 
Herrmann. 

To  help  in  the  Band's  day-to-day  affairs, 
the  Band  has  a  fraternity  (Kappa  Kappa 
Psi)  and  a  sorority  (Tau  Beta  Sigma). 
These  ore  service  oriented  groups 
responsible  for  administration,  fundraising 
and  overall  functioning  of  the  organiza- 
tion. Fundraisers  hove  included  bake 
soles,  cor  washes  and  carnation  sales  for 
Homecoming.  Money  raised  goes  to  buy

The  band  fraternity  and  sorority  also 
sponsor  social  events  at  members 
hiomes,  suchi  as  thie  Halloween  Party,  held 
in  October. 

Many  students  form  long  lasting  friend- 
ships from  being  a  port  of  the  Band. 
Junior  Ted  Evans,  a  saxophonist  describ- 
ed the  band  as,  "like  a  big  family."  A  big 
reason  for  this  is  the  fact  that  members 
spend  so  much  time  with  each  other, 
practicing  or  otherwise. 

At  the  beginning  of  each  year,  before 
the  Fall  semester  starts,  the  Bond  holds 
"Early  Week."  Musicians  practice  for  five 
days  straight,  ten  hours  a  day.  "This  is  an 
excellent  way  for  freshmen  to  make  a  lot 
of  new  friends  really  quickly,"  said  Evans. 


University  Cfiauffeurs 


"Good  morning!  ...Good  morning! 
...Good  morning!  ...Good  morning,"  said 
Shuttle  driver  Chris  Stone,  greeting  each 
Spring  Hill  Lake  Shuttle  passenger  as  they 
board.  "I  like  to  greet  them  to  try  and 
start  their  day  off  on  the  right  foot,  "  said 
Stone,  a  computer  science  and  German 
major. 

In  the  morning  people  have  a  lot  on 
their  mind  or  ore  still  waking  up,  so  they 
may  be  cranky.  "Some  passengers  just 
glare  at  me  like  I'm  the  weirdest  person  in 
the  world,"  said  Stone,  "But,  some  stop  to 
ask  me  how  I'm  doing  or  something," 

Others  bring  a  cup  of  coffee  to  jump 
start  their  brain  cells  in  the  morning. 
"Either  way,  I  enjoy  interacting  with  the 
passengers.  Driving  around  in  circles  can 
be  boring,  "  said  Stone.  "Plus,  it  makes 
passengers  think  better  of  Shuttle." 

Stone  also  started  a  tradition  of  enter- 
taining regular  riders.  "I'd  do  fun  stuff,  like 
tell  a  joke  everyday  at  11:00.  After  a 
while,  passengers  would  come  to  look 
forward  to  the  wisecrack  of  the  day," 
said  Stone. 

Senior  Matt  Campbell,  a  three  year 
Shuttle  veteran  and  education  major,  ex- 
plains, "Shuttle  is  almost  entirely  student 
run,  so  people  understand  your  needs  as 
a  student,  too."  Shuttle  bus  drivers  work  in 
shifts  past  normal  business  hours,  so  the 
hours  are  extremely  flexible. 


The  excellent  atmosphere  has  created 
a  number  of  loyal  employees.  "We  all 
joke  that  we  drive  our  bus  more  than  we 
drive  our  cars. ..Yeah,  some  people  have 
worked  at  Shuttle  for  five  or  six  years.  It's 
like  you  suddently  have  130  friends  and 
it's  a  wide  variety  of  people,"  explained 
Campbell.  "Shuttle  has  great  social 
potential,  too.  We  all  get  together  and 
party." 

Shuttle  drivers  hove  the  highest  starting 
salary  of  all  part-time  campus  jobs. 
However,  said  Campbell,  "For  the 
amount  of  responsibility  we  have,  we 
don't  get  paid  nearly  enough.  We  drive  a 
Flex  that  costs  thousands  and  we're 
responsible  for  the  safe  transport  of  large 
numbers  of  students." 

Shuttle  drivers  go  through  extensive 
training  programs  to  ensure  student  and 
driver  safety.  For  example,  drivers  obtain 
a  special  license  through  a  written  and 
driving  exam  at  the  Motor  Vehicle  Ad- 
ministration. Employees  learn  numerous 
maintenance  procedures  and  driving 
laws  which  also  apply  to  bus  and  truck 
drivers  all  over  the  United  Stotes. 

But,  before  the  "IN  TRAINING"  sign  can 
be  switched  to  "IN  SERVICE,"  a  rigorous 
three  week  training  program  must  be 
completed.  Applicants  must  also  have  a 
clean  driving  record  for  at  least  one  year.

Many  students  hiave  been  grateful  for 
the  Shuttle  service,  especially  after  a  wild 
night  on  the  Route.  For  students  stumbing 
home  from  the  Route  or  the  Row  at  2:00

"There's  always  a  bunch  that  get  on  at 
South  Gate  to  go  to  the  high  rises.  They'll 
be  screaming  and  running  around,  telling 
drivers  to  run  the  next  stop  sign,"  said 
Campbell.  Drivers  have  the  authority  to 
stop  the  bus,  turn  on  the  lights,  and  tell 
students  to  shut  up  and  calm  down.  "If 
they  don't,  we  can  kick  them  off  the  bus 
or  call  the  Police,"  said  Campbell.  "But, 
when  peole  get  sick  on  your  bus,  it  really 
sucks." 

Just  about  everyone  has  memories  of 
coming  home  from  the  Row  and  stan- 
ding up  on  the  bus  because  the  bus  is  so 
crowded.  "You  hold  onto  the  straps  for 
dear  life  thinking,  'Will  I  make  it  home 
without  getting  sick?'"  said  Maura  Taylor, 
a  senior  history  major. 

But  there  are  others  who  are  just  having 
a  good  ol'  time.  "It's  fun  when  they  sing 
the  theme  song  to  the  'Brady  Bunch'  or 
'The  Flintstones,'"  said  Campbell. 

However,  stranger  things  have  happen- 
ed to  Shuttle  drivers.  "Some  drunk  sorority 
girls  did  a  strip  tease  in  the  back  of  the 
bus,"  chuckled  Stone.  "It  was  raining  real- 
ly hard  and  we  were  stuck  behind  Frat 
Row  because  cars  were  blocking  the 
road.  I  suggested  we  needed  some 
entertainment  and  one  of  the  girls  said 
she  knew  how  to  dance." 

University  of  Maryland's  Shuttle  UM,  one 
of  the  oldest  student  run  transportation 
systems,  has  come  a  long  way  from  its 
beginning  twenty  years  ago.  "Shuttle 
started  with  one  Call-A-Ride  bus.  Back 
then,  it  was  just  one  beat  up,  ol'  red  van," 
said  Campbell.

Studying  Takes  on  Different  Forms

As  I  crawled  out  of  my  portable,  all- 
weather  pup  tent,  and  stumbled  towards 
thie  bathroom,  I  caught  sight  of  my  reflec- 
tion in  the  large  glass  walls  surrounding 
me.  I  realized  I  have  become  a  resident 
of  Hornbake's  "24  hour  study  room"  Hall. 

Like  many  other  UM  students,  I  was 
practically  a  permanent  resident  of  Horn- 
bake  Library.  The  Hornbake  24  hour  study 
room  is  one  of  the  most  popular  places 
on  campus  to  study  as  well  as  to  meet 
new  people. 

Some  people  say  the  people  are  the 
best  part  of  going  to  study  in  Hornbake. 
"You  see  some  real  characters  at  four  in 
the  morning,"  said  senior  Tanya  Olsen,  an 
elementary  education  major.  "One  time  I 
sow  some  people  jogging  around  the 
room  to  woke  themselves  up!" 

But,  for  those  students  that  did  not  like 
the  hustle  and  bustle  of  Hornbake,  or 
prefer  to  get  their  studying  done  at  a  de- 
cent hour,  there  ore  plenty  of  other 
libraries. 

Another  popular  spot  was  the 
Engineering  Library.  "The  classes  in  my 
major  are  pretty  tough,  so  I  hove  to  con- 
centrate. In  the  engineering  library, 
everyone  is  very  quiet  and  it  is  easy  to 
get  a  lot  of  work  done.  That  is  where  I 


spend   most   of   my   time,"   said   Laura 
Benedict,  a  junior  pre-engineering  major. 

One  of  the  most  common  places  to 
study  still  seemed  to  be  one's  own  room. 
"I  am  most  comfortable  studying  in  my 
room,"  said  Lisa  Edell,  a  junior  early 
childhood  education  major.  "I  have  a 
single,  so  long  as  my  roommates  are 
quiet,  I  don't  have  a  problem  studying  in 
my  room." 

Regardless  of  where  students  studied, 
the  methods  of  study  tend  to  be  as 
diverse.  "I  have  to  study  things  bit  by  bit, 
and  start  a  couple  days  before  my  exam. 
If  I  don't,  then  I  am  totally  stressed  out  the ' 
night  before,  said  Nancy  Moy,  a  junior 
business  major. 

Others  prefer  to  cram  it  all  in  the  night 
before.  "If  I  even  think  of  studying  before 
the  day  before  my  exam,  my  system 
goes  into  shock.  I  work  much  better 
under  pressure,"  Lisa  Edell  added. 

To  students  of  every  major  and  every 
grade,  studying  was  a  fact  of  life  and  fac- 
ed many  times  at  the  Univesity. 

Some  students  just  tried  to  make  the 
best  of  a  heavy  schedule  of  classes.  "I  am 
going  to  put  up  a  tent  in  the  library  and 
only  leave  to  go  to  class,"  said  Tamara 
Gronet,  a  senior  journalism  major.

Erasabk  Inc.  A  UM  Tradition 

Impmisaiion  Group  Adds  Distinctix'c  I'Lur 


All  eyes  in  the  Atrium  turned  to  people 
barking  out  sounds  of  glee,  disgust,  sur- 
prise, and  indifference.  To  those  just  pass- 
ing through,  the  group  may  have  been  a 
parade  of  schizophrenics.  But,  as  the 
faithful,  seasoned  majority  knew,  the 
emotionally  maladjusted  group  was  the 
University  of  Maryland's  only  improvisa- 
tional  comedy  troup»e,  doing  a  rendition 
of  a  game  they  called 
"Emote-o-Symphony." 

The  improvising  minds  came  together 
over  five  years  ago,  when  The  Purple 
Crayon,  a  comedy  group  from  Yale 
University,  held  a  campus  workshop 
about  the  art  of  improvisation  in  comedy 
performances. 

A  semester  later,  a  group  of  students 
who  atterxjed  the  workshop  thought  it 
would  be  fun  to  play  improvisotional 
comedy  games.  Spontaneously,  they 
walked  into  the  Student  Union  Atrium  one 
Thursday  and  improvised. 

To  Erasable  Inc.,  the  art  of  improviso- 
tional comedy  was  more  than  just  being 
funny.  Although  much  of  what  the  au- 
dience sow  involved  laughter,  the  pro- 
cess the  group  undertook  to  arrive  at 
laughter  went  much  deeper  than  just 
fooling  around  on  stage. 

Erasable  Inc.  gomes  involved  audience 
members  as  players.  The  group  asked  the 
audience  to  contribute  to  the  scene:  a 
theme,  an  emotion,  a  place,  a  genre,  or 
an  opening  line.  Each  gome  then  built  on 
audience  suggestions,  incorporating 
ideas  and  moods  of  the  audience. 

It  was  this  awareness  of  the  unpredic- 
table nature  of  their  art  that  Erasable  Inc. 
took  advantage  of  in  every  show.  They 
manipulated  the  unknown  into  what  was 
very  twisted,  hysterically  funny  or  pure 
genius. 

Each  member  of  Erasable  Inc.  was  ex- 
posed to  the  same  vulnerabilities  inherent 


in  improvisation,  such  as  apprehensions 
about  the  offensive  or  inappropriate  sug- 
gestions of  the  audience.  Each  member 
come  to  trust  in  the  unity  of  the  group 
sharing  mistakes  and  successes. 

Bob  Williams  recounted  the  many 
shows  during  which  Inc.  member  Kevin 
Dyels  has,  with  his  back  facing  the  group, 
thrown  his  glasses  behind  him,  always 
trusting  that  a  fellow  Inc.  member  would 
catch  them. 

"Trust  allows  you  to  lose  yourself  in  the 
scene,  where  you  don't  notice  the  au- 
dience anymore,  and  you  don't  care 
how  anything  looks  anymore.  You  just  let 
it  happen,"  Williams  said. 

Focus,  another  crucial  improvisation 
element,  involves  the  attention  that  each 
member  pays  to  one  another. 

"When  focus  works  right,  everyone  on 
stage  is  worried  about  making  everyone 
else  look  good,  and  trust  comes  in  know- 
ing that  everyone  is  worrying  with  you," 
Williams  said.  "Everyone  is  trying  to  hold 
one  another  up." 

Erasable  Inc.  also  prided  themselves  on 
not  having  any  preset  notions  of  what  it  is 
they  would  perform,  or  what  could  hap- 
pen once  they  were  on  stage. 

The  ideas  for  the  games  they  played 
were  structures,  and  throughout  the 
course  of  each  show,  the  structures  were 
broken  apart,  torn  down,  and  rebuilt  in  an 
entirely  new  way. 

In  1992,  Erasable  Inc.  once  again  rebuilt, 
with  over  half  of  the  group  in  their  first 
semester  of  Inc.  performance.  Under  the 
newly  appointed  creative  director  Eric 
Solodino  and  assistant  creative  director 
Woody  Irvin,  the  group  went  through 
what  Irvin  called  "a  period  of  transition," 
as  the  new  members,  along  with  several 
veteran  members,  took  on  a  new 
character  and  worked  through  a  per- 
sonal gome  of  discovery.

Taking  a  Break 

The  Tdc\ision  Factor 


Television  is  a  primary  source  of  enter- 
tainment for  college  students  at  the 
University  of  Maryland.  Some  students 
would  rather  hove  a  heated  discussion 
about  Brendo  and  Dylan's  relationship  on 
"Berverly  Hills.  90210"  than  listen  to 
another  sleep-inducing  lecture. 

Most  students  watch  television  for 
entertainment  or  to  ease  the  pressure  of 
exams.  "It's  a  good  way  to  relax  after  tak- 
ing on  exam."  said  Chorlene  Gayle,  a 
senior  economics  major. 

Television,  for  many,  serves  as  a  way  to 
ovoid  studying,  "I  often  watch  television 
OS  on  excuse  not  to  study,"  said  Corliss  Hill, 
a  senior  journalism  major. 

What  ore  some  of  the  favorite  shows  of 
Maryland  students?  The  "Cosby  Show" 
and  "The  Simpsons"  ore  still  popular 
because,  "They  portray  family  situations 
in  a  funny  way,"  said  Sonio  Florence,  a 
junior  consumer  economics  major. 

"Beverly  Hills,  90210"  now  has  a  cult 
following.  "Practically  all  the  girls  in  my 
sorority  house  sit  around  together  and 
watch  it,"  said  Diane  Ruth,  a  junior  math 
major.  "They  don't  even  go  out  until  it's 
over." 

The  program's  unrealistic  portrayal  of 
teens  is  one  of  it's  main  attractions.  "The 
people  on  that  show  ore.  like,  totally 
perfect,"  said  Jim  Gordineer,  a 
sophomore,  undecided  major.  "Everyone 
wishes  their  high  school  experience  had 
been  like  that,  with  great  clothes  and 
huge  mansions." 

Despite  the  popularity  of  new  shows, 
the  soap-opera  will  always  be  a  favorite 
with  Mon/lond  students.  "I  like  it  because 
it's  like  watching  a  fairytale,"  said  Joy 
Gerst,  a  freshman  engineering  major.  "I 
also  like  the  beautiful  women." 

Some  die-hard  fans  like  senior  English 
major  Cindy  Schuller  schedule  classes 
around  their  favorite  soaps.  "  'Days  of  Our 
Lives'  came  on  between  one  and  two 
o'clock,  so  I  made  sure  I  hod  no  classes  at 
that  time." 

So.  it  you  wont  to  find  out  if  Brenda  and 
Dylan's  relationship  will  last,  watch  them 
on  television  Thursday  night.  I  guarantee 
you  will  not  be  alone!

Every  freshmen  worried  about  moving 
into  the  resident  halls  and  who  their 
roommate  might  be.  Would  she  be  a 
metal-head  biker-chick?  What  if  he  has  a 
spiked  purple  mohawk  and  wears  metal 
studs  around  his  neck?  Even  worse,  what 
if  he  wears  pocket  protectors  or  doesn't 
shower? 

But,  on  check-in  day,  most  fears  were 
laid  to  rest.  The  roommate  was  ex- 
ceedingly normal!  Both  roommates  ac- 
tually got  along,  at  least,  for  the  first  few 
weeks. 

We  learned  to  break  through 
stereotypes  and  accept  divergent 
lifestyles.  After  all,  college  is  where  one 
learns  to  question  the  rules,  stand  up  to 
authority,  and  restructure  our  beliefs. 

Resident  hall  life  is  an  unbeatable  ex- 
perience. There  are  few  other  places 
one  is  exposed  to  so  many  cultural 
backgrounds.  Sharing  a  cramped,  12  x  15 
cell  can  foster  relationships  between 
even  the  most  unlikely  pairs. 

"I  don't  think  we  would've  ended  up 
such  good  friends  if  we  weren't  room- 
mates," said  junior,  sociology  major  Rick 
Rhoden.  "I  hesitated  when  I  first  heard  his 
classical  music.  Paul  didn't  like  my  rap 
either;  but  we  both  got  used  to  each 
other's  tastes,  and  Paul  actually  come  to 
like  rap." 

Some  roommate  combinations  were  a 
great  success;  some  were  utter 
catastrophes.  "My  roommate  said  I  had 
to  hove  my  boyfriend  out  of  the  room  by 
8;00  p.m...she  drew  a  line  down  the  mid- 
dle of  the  room,  stating  which  side  was 
mine  and  which  side  was  hers.  Unfor- 
tunately, my  side  had  the  door,  so  I  told 
her  she  could  use  her  side  of  the  window 
to  come  and  go.  It  was  hell,"  said  on 
Elkton  Hall  resident. 

No  matter  what  the  roommate  rela- 
tionship, it  was  all  part  of  the  college  ex- 
perience. We  learned  how  to  share,  com- 
promise, accept  different  values,  and 
communicate.  Some  of  us  even  remain- 
ed friends  after  college. 


University  Theatre 

Sfiowcasing  Stars  of  Tomorrow 


Tawes  Theater  at  the  University  of 
Maryland  had  a  different  twist  for  1991. 
Shows  ranged  from  intellectual  comedy, 
to  fairies  on  roller  blades,  to  political 
themes. 

Tawes  Theater  presents  various  perfor- 
mances and  events  throughout  the  year, 
and  the  four  major  productions  this  year 
were  "Top  Girls,"  "Major  Barbara,"  "Bring 
Bock  Broadway,"  and  "Midsummer 
Night's  Dream." 

"Top  Girls,"  directed  by  Sharon  Ammen, 
took  place  during  the  spring,  consisting  of 
an  all-female  cast.  Feminism  was  ad- 
dressed and  examined  through  the  lives 
of  seven  women  from  different  countries 
and  varying  lifestyles. 

The  playwright,  Gary  Churchill,  brought 
many  issues  to  surface.  But  Sharon  Am- 
men's  interpretation  attempted  to  reveal 
the  struggles  and  strengths  of  women  of 
the  past  and  present. 

George  Bernard  Shaw's  "Major  Bar- 
bara" was  filled  with  intellectual  comedy 
and  wit.  Junior  theater  major  Jeff  Binder 
played  the  role  of  Peter  Shirely.  He  com- 
mented, "There  isn't  one  play  that  I 
haven't  ejoyed  doing  here  at  UMCP.  As 
actors,  we've  found  certain  nuances  to 
inspire  us  to  enjoy  our  work."  In  this  play 
Jim  Petoso  directed  his  cost  to  explore 
contradicting  ideals,  philosophies,  and 
morals. 


In  October,  "Bring  Back  Broadwa 
(BBB)  hit  the  stage.  Ron  O'Leary  coc 
dinated  all  musical  selections  in  this  tw 
hour  musical  review.  The  play  showed  c 
works  of  famous  and  prominent  cor 
posers,  writers,  and  lyricists  who  had 
tremendous  impact  on  Broadwc 
theater. 

The  play  featured  music  from  gred 
such  as  Gole  Porter  and  George  and  I 
Gershwinn.  "BBB  had  on  exceptional  w( 
of  uplifting  spirits  through  musical  ren( 
tions.  I  called  on  people  to  reflect  upc 
Broadway's  past,"  said  Carmen  White, 
junior  theater  major  who  danced  in  tf 
show. 

Finally,  Shakespeare  confirmed  the  so 
ing,  "Love  is  blind"  in  "A  Midsumm 
Night's  Dream."  Directed  by  Kate  Ufem 
the  fantasy-like  setting  and  stylisi 
lighting  brought  out  the  true  essence  ar 
dream-like  ambiance  of  the  play.  Towe 
stage  was  exceptional  in  this  productic 
One  unique  element  was  the  fairji 
gliding  around  stage  on  roller  blades,  gi 
ing  the  play  "a  mix  of  contemporo 
styles  and  a  universal  theme  that  mac 
the  ideas  easy  to  grasp,"  said  Rob  Crit« 
a  junior  theater  major  and  cast  membf 

Tawes  theater  not  only  played  a  k« 
role  in  coaching  theater  students  in  tf 
art  of  play  production,  but  brought  o 
smiles  and  applause  from  its  audience;

Btkind  tfte  Scenes 

Backstage,  at  University  Theatre, 


At  Tawes  Theater,  the  execution  of  a 
production  requires  much  time  and  ef- 
fort. Most  people  foil  to  realize  the 
amount  of  work  and  energy  that  goes  in- 
to producing  a  show. 

"Being  a  theater  major  is  like  juggling 
two  full-time  jobs,"  said  Rob  Crites,  a 
junior  theater  major.  "The  first  job  is 
managing  as  a  student  and  the  other  is 
doing  a  production,  in  which  a  lot  is  ex- 
pected of  you." 

Every  theater  major  is  required  to  take 
Stage  Craft  170.  This  course  exposes  per- 
formers to  the  behind-the-scenes  of  a 
ploy.  Students  study  the  many  roles  in- 
volved in  putting  a  show  together.  After  a 
production  is  chosen  by  the  director  and 
his  assistants,  casting  begins.  Audition 
notices  ore  posted  on  the  first  day  of 
classes  and  students  are  told  what  type 
of  audition  is  expected.  Being  a  theater 
major  is  not  a  requirement  for  trying  out 
for  a  show.  After  the  first  audition, 
call-bocks  ore  held  and  narrowed  down 
and  the  cost  is  finally  chosen. 

As  the  "builder"  of  the  play,  the  director 
unifies  the  interpretation  and  presenta- 
tion of  the  play.  The  assistant  director 
helps  in  the  unification  and  may  also  con- 
duct rehearsals  and  run  lines  with  the 
cost.  Once  the  director's  job  is  com- 


pleted, the  show  belongs  to  the  stage 
manager.  He  or  she  is  the  liason  between 
the  director  and  the  cost  as  well  as  the 
stage  crew. 

At  the  onset  of  the  ploy,  a  production 
meeting  is  held  to  brainstorm  for 
set-building,  costumes,  scenic  design, 
lighting  and  sound.  Following  this,  a 
budget  is  formulated  and  scheduling  is 
done.  All  written  proposals,  drafts  and 
sketches  are  discussed.  Once  these  are 
agreed  upon  and  approved,  producton 
begins. 

All  technicians  and  designers  work 
together.  The  scenic  designer  tries  to 
create  a  physical  environment  and  per- 
formance stage  that  supports  the  play's 
location,  while  the  costume  designer  ex- 
presses the  elements  of  a  characfer 
through  the  performer's  apparel.  Lighting 
is  crucial  in  a  show.  It  emphasizes  the 
scenes  and  expresses  mood.  Sound,  the 
last  element  of  a  show,  functions  to 
amplify  the  actor's  voice. 

"Theater  is  an  intensified  program  and 
a  commitment  to  the  arts,  and 
knowledge  of  one's  self  is  a  must  in  order 
to  survive  and  excel,"  said  Carmen  White, 
a  junior  theater  major,  commenting  on 
the  elements  required  of  those  involved 
in  the  production  of  a  show.

tudents  are  covered  for  care  at  UHC, 
monced  by  the  mandatory  Student 
lealth  Fee.  But,  there  are  additional 
:harges  for  x-rays,  lab  tests,  casts,  den- 
istry,  allergy  injections,  and  medications. 

The  Health  Center  is  staffed  by  over 
DO  physicians,  registered  nurses,  nurse 
)ractitioners,  pharmacists,  social  workers 
ind  health  educators. 

Health  Education  at  the  UHC  includes

system  of  support. 

The  pharmacy,  open  10:00  a.m.  to 
5:00  p.m.  weekdays,  is  staffed  by  two 
full-time  pharmacists.  It  has  prescriptions 
as  well  as  over-the-counter  medications. 
But,  the  UHC  pharmacy  is  probably  most 
famous  for  its  "Three  for  Free"  offer  of 
free  condoms  to  students. 

The  Mental  Health  department  has 
psychiatrists  and  psychiatric  social 
workers  to  provide  mental  health  infor- 
mation, evaluations,  and  therapy.  There  is 
also  group  therapy  and  weekly  support 
groups  for  rape  victims. 

Finally,  the  Social  Services  Department 
helps  individuals  with  adjustment,  rela- 
tionships, stress  and  depression.  A  special 
part  of  the  department  deals  with  eating 
disorders  (anorexia  and  bulimia),  pro- 
viding counseling  and  medical 
supervision.

UM  5tu£lmt5  Work  Out 

The  health  and  fitness  craze  looks  like 
its  here  to  stay.  And  Jane  Fonda  videos 
and  Campus  Recreation  Services  (CRS) 
have  come  to  lead  the  v^/ay  to  buns  of 
steel  and  sex  appeal. 

"In  the  seven  years  that  I've  been  here  I 
hove  definitely  seen  an  increase  in 
fitness,"  said  Barbara  Aiken,  the  assistant 
director  of  Campus  Recreation  Services. 

Among  the  most  popular  fitness  ac- 
tivities are  aerobics  and  swimming.  "The 
swimming  pool  is  typically  crowded  and 
sometimes  we  have  180  people  in  one 
aerobic  class,"  said  Aiken.  Aerobic 
classes  ore  held  every  day  and  students 
can  choose  from  low  impact  to  high  im- 
pact sessions. 

Students  practice  fitness  to  increase 
energy  or  because  they  desire  to  get  in 
shape.  "We  try  to  promote  fitness  as  a 
way  to  reduce  stress,  to  make  you  sleep 
better  and  to  do  well  in  school,"  said 
Aiken. 

But,  the  biggest  reasons  students  work 
out  is  because  they  wont  to  look  good. 
"Since  doing  aerobics,  I  have  definitely 
rvDticed  a  change  in  my  appearance 
arxj  I've  lost  over  35  pounds,"  said 
Monica  Watkins,  a  junior  mechanical 
engineering  major. 

According  to  Aiken,  the  overage  stu- 
dent exercises  three  hours  a  week,  the 
minimum  for  cardiovascular  exercise.  But, 
some  students  exercise  much  more,  like 
Karen  Meredith,  a  junior  fashion  mer- 
chandising major.  "I  exercise  about  four 
or  five  times  a  week  to  stay  in  shape," 
said  Meredith, 

The  number  of  students  enrolling  in 
fitness  classes  increases  even  more  bet- 
ween February  and  spring  break.  "During 
these  months,  you  con't  get  into  the  door 
of  an  aerobics  class.  People  are  trying  to 
kDse  weight  from  Christmas  eating  or  for 
the  Florida  beaches,"  claimed  Aiken.

Campus  Cops 

UM  SUidents  as  Police  Aides  and  Ticketers 


Imagine  167,000  slips  of  yellow  paper 
floating  around  campus  -  slips  of  paper 
inspiring  fear  and  anger  in  the  hearts  of 
students,  and  emptying  their  wallets.  One 
would  never  guess  that  such  a  little  peice 
of  paper  could  create  such  havoc.  These 
slips  of  paper  are  parking  parking  tickets. 

Director  of  Campus  Parking  David  Allen 
employes  both  students  and  non- 
students  to  hand  out  the  dreaded  tickets. 
"It's  kind  of  a  tough  job  to  have,"  said 
Allen,  refering  to  ticketing.  One  member 
of  the  ranks  is  full-time  employee  Evelyn 
Newborn,  whom  Allen  consideres  one  of 
the  best.  Her  favorite  part  of  the  job  is  is- 
suing the  tickets.  She  hands  out  a  whopp- 
ing 50  to  too  everyday.  But  the  least 
favorite  aspect  of  her  job  is  dealing  with 
student  attitudes. 

Not  surprisingly,  ticketers  are  often 
harassed,  and  not  just  by  students. 
Newborn  recalled  one  incident,  "I  issued 
a  ticket  to  a  construction  worker,  and  he 
got  up  in  my  face!" 

Student  ticketer  Adam  Haight  admit- 
ted that  whenever  he  introduces  himself 
he  says,  "I'm  one  of  those  parking  scum- 
bolls."  But,  aside  from  all  the  harassment, 
"It's  really  a  good  job,"  Haight  added. 

Perhaps  more  appreciated  by  students 
are  the  police  aides.  This  semester, 
seventy-two  students  received  specializ- 
ed training  and  worked  with  campus 


police  to  provide  security.  They  could  be 
seen  doing  their  jobs  in  ever  part  of  cam- 
pus, including  the  University  Book  Center, 
the  libraries,  and  at  Byrd  Stadium  during 
sporting  events. 

Police  aide  Marie  enjoys  her  work 
because,  "It's  not  like  a  desk  job;  it's  more 
exciting."  She  added  that  she  enjoys  the 
chance  to  perform  a  community  service. 
Brian  agreed,  "You  get  to  help  out  peo- 
ple...people  sometimes  harass  women, 
and  we  get  to  stop  that."  Another  aide, 
Jim,  also  enjoys  working  with  his  fellow 
students.  He  feels  that  communication  is 
easier  between  students  and  aides  than 
between  students  and  police  officers. 
"Police  are  intimidating,"  he  said.  "And 
we're  less  likely  to  to  be  a  threat  than  o 
police  officer,  because  we  understand 
students'  problems." 

Jim  is  bothered  by  the  misconception 
that  police  aides  issue  parking  tickets. 
Students  have  become  very  aggressive 
with  him  while  he  was  collecting  money 
from  meters.  "We  have  to  take  radios 
because  people  get  really  out  of  hand," 
he  said. 

The  jobs  of  the  ticketer  and  the  police 
aide  may  be  unappreciated  at  times,  but 
workers  develop  a  sense  of  accomplish- 
ment and  take  pride  in  doing  their  port  to 
enforce  university  rules.  Besides,  as  Marie 
said,  "It's  fun  to  get  behind  the  scenes."

Homecoming  ^91 


Homecoming  1991  aimed  to  attract  a 
prger,  more  diverse  portion  of  ttie  stu- 
ient  body  in  the  week-long  celebration, 
ypically  dominated  by  Greek 
irganizations. 

Brandon  Dula,  chioirperson  of  the  1991 
lomecoming  committee,  said,  "It  was 
nainly  a  matter  of  perception.  We  had  to 
>ersuade  all  campus  organizations  that 
omecoming  is  a  activity  for  the  entire 
ampus." 

Although  student  organizations  ore 
ligible  to  compete  for  the  Homecoming 
orticipation  award,  many  exclude 
lemselves  from  getting  involved 
ecause  sororities  and  fraternities  are 
sually  the  most  active  and  accumulate 
ie  most  "spirit  points,"  according  to  Kurt 
9nstermacker,  president  of  the  Stamp 
^udent  Union  Program  Council  and 
lember  of  the  Homecoming  committee. 
This  year's  Homecoming  excitement 
eked  off  on  Monday,  October  21,  with  a 
ampus-wide  scavenger  hunt  sponsored 
y  the  Student  Union  Program  Council 
UPC).  Students  had  until  Thursday  to 
jorch  for  o  list  of  professors,  historical 
Dcuments,  and  a  variety  of  other  things 


only  a  true  Terp  could  identify. 

On  Tuesday,  comedian  Dennis  Miller 
performed  for  a  sold-out  crowd  at  Ritchie 
Coliseum,  The  former  weekend  newsman 
of  "Saturday  Night  Live"  split  more  than  a 
few  sides  with  his  sarcastic  humor,  draw- 
ing upon  such  topics  as  the  Clarence 
Thomas  hearings,  Saddam  Hussein,  West 
Virginia  natives  and  material  from  his 
many  classic  performances. 

Friday's  banner  competition  was  a  gala 
of  artistic  creativity  and  school  spirit.  The 
18  banners,  displayed  on  the  Byrd 
Stadium  fence  were  judged  in  categories 
based  on  theme,  artistic  quality,  effort, 
originality,  and  color.  SUPC  provided  the 
basic  materials,  and  each  group  had  five 
days  to  complete  their  masterpiece. 

The  Greek  match-up  of  Pi  Kappa  Alpha 
and  Kappa  Kappa  Gamma  won  first 
prize  with  their  takeoff  on  Saturday  Night 
Live's  "Wayne's  World."  Coming  in  se- 
cond in  the  banner  competition  and  the 
Homecoming  award  overall  was  the 
combo  of  Delta  Delta  Delta,  Delta  Tau 
Delta  and  Delta  Sigma  Pi.  Their  creation, 
the  "Mississippi  Delta,"  featured  the 
waterway's  traditional  old-time  paddle 


boat  designs. 

Following  the  parade  was  the  tradi- 
tional pep  rally  and  bonfire.  Later  that  Fri- 
day night,  the  second  annual  Homecom- 
ing Formal  was  held  in  the  Stomp  Union. 
The  formal,  open  to  all  students  gave 
students  a  chance  to  dance.  According 
to  Fenstermacker,  over  300  people  at- 
tended the  dance,  which  is  a  cor- 
nerstone necessary  to  promote  student 
involvement  in  Homecoming. 

This  was  the  first  year  that  Homecoming 
and  Family  Weekend  coincided.  Unlike 
previous  years,  this  year's  program 
targeted  the  families  of  all  students,  from 
freshmen  to  seniors. 

The  highlight  of  Family  Weekend  was 
Sunday  brunch  at  President  Kirwan's 
home.  The  Kirwan  family  and  other  school 
administrators  cordially  greeted  and 
chatted  with  about  600  Terrapin  family 
members.  "We  knew  parents  were  going 
to  corner  him  (Kirwan)  about  certain 
questions,"  said  Tom  Flynn  of  Campus 
Guest  Services,  which  coordinated  Family 
Weekend.  Flynn  said  he  received  a  very 
positive  reaction  from  parent  about  the 
brunch.

The  90's 


Pasta  makers  are  out,  sixty-hour  work  weeks  ore 
out,  the  once  popular  phrase,  "Greed  is  good,"  is 
definitely  O-U-T.  But,  what  is  in?  Even  scholars  and 
top  nnarketing  executives  are  baffled.  The  ninty's 
generation,  known  as  "Baby  Busters,"  are  no  predic- 
table bunch. 

The  Baby  Boomer  generation  followed  a  uniform, 
cookie  cutter  culture,  and  because  of  their  size, 
they  defined  every  era  they  passed  through,  forc- 
ing society  to  accomodate  their  needs.  In  contrast, 
according  to  census  accounts,  the  U.S.  birth  rote 
went  into  a  sharp  decline,  decreasing  the  number 
of  birth  to  less  than  half  the  level  of  the  post  war 
boom.  Unfortunately,  so  far  we  ore  an  unsung 
generation,  too  small  to  be  noticed,  too  new  to  be 
recognized. 

However,  looking  at  the  problems  facing  the 
ninety's  generation,  it  is  no  wonder!  We,  the  Baby 
Busters,  hove  not  decided  which  problems  to 
tackle.  There  is  AIDS,  diversity,  homelessness,  cancer, 
and  environmental  concervotion,  just  to  name  a 
few.  Which  single  cause  is  most  worthy  of  our  time, 
money  and  other  resources?  The  answer  is  they  ore 
all  worthy. 

"I  envision  ourselves  as  a  generation  kind  of 
waiting  in  the  shadows,  unsure  of  what  to  do,  but 
quietly  figuring  out  a  plan  of  action,"  said  Brian  Beot- 
ty,  a  senior  English  major.  Baby  Busters  seem  over- 
whelmed by  past  generations'  revolutionary 
thoughts  and  causes;  yet  the  problems  we  face  are 
the  insurmountable  problems  the  Boomers  left.  Thus, 
we  spread  our  energy  and  enthusiasm  over  many 
causes,  unable  to  decide  which  is  more  important. 

Even  worse  is  the  horrible  revelation  that  we  may 
not  solve  them,  which  breed  apathy.  How  many 
students  did  not  voice  their  concerns  during  the  stu- 
dent teach-ins  or  protest  budget  cuts  because  they 
felt  their  voice  would  not  be  heard? 

Time  magazine,  in  its  July  16,  1990  issue,  devoted 
its  cover  story  to  the  Baby  Busters,  calling  us  the 
"twenty  something"  generation.  Time  magazine 
writers  David  Gross  and  Sophronio  Scott  point  out 
that  today's  generation  grew  up  in  a  time  of  drugs, 
divorce  and  economic  strain.  We  virtually  reared 
ourselves.  As  latch-key  kids,  TV  provided  the  sur- 
rogate parenting,  and  Ronald  Reagan  starred  as 
the  real-life  Mr.  Rogers,  dispensing  reassurance.  His 
message:  problems  con  be  shelved  until  later. 

It  is  now  later,  and  the  problems  have  gotten 
worse.  The  Savings  and  Loan  failures,  HUD  scandals. 


and  the  national  deficits  are  just  a  few  of  the  fiascos  | 
piled  up,  waiting  to  be  tackled.  Yet,  they  snowball  | 
into  larger,  more  perplexing  issues.  "We're  just  trying  ; 
to    pick  up  the  pieces,  is  there  a  label  for  that?" 
questioned  Paul  Nekoranik,  a  junior  physics  major. 

Also,  the  precipitous  decline  in  births  may  soon 
give  America  a  slop  in  the  face  when  today's  young 
adults  venture  out  into  the  work  force.  Our  numbers 
ore  so  scarce  compared  to  our  forerunners,  it  could 
result  in  serious  labor  shortages  in  the  coming  years. 

But,  instead  of  continuing  the  Baby  Boomer  tradi- 
tion. Baby  Busters  are  already  changing  the  norm. 
Trend  trackers  already  report  the  growing  opposi- 
tion towards  corporate  ladders,  BMWs,  and  social 
revolutions.  Prestige,  along  with  Cuisinarts  and 
Rolexes,  hove  become  passe. 

Baby  Busters  are  trading  ulcers,  heart  disease  and,' 
stress  for  more  fulfilling  jobs  and  increased  leisure ' 
time.  The  expression  "One  should  work  to  live;  not 
live  to  work"  has  become  a  popular  way  of  life. 
Baby  Busters  simply  wont  to  take  bock  those 
sacred,  work-free  weekends  and  demand  more 
leisure  time  to  enjoy  the  fruits  of  their  labors. 

It  is  not  that  we  do  not  wont  to  give  something 
back  to  society.  But,  we  are  not  sure  where  to 
begin.  There  is  no  John  F.  Kennedy  or  Martin  Luther 
King  to  study  and  follow.  The  twentysomething 
generation  does  not  have  the  heros,  role  models 
and  leaders  the  Baby  Boomers  looked  up  to.  So  far, 
one  role  model  has  been  Donald  Trump,  president 
of  the  "greed  is  good"  club.  But,  we  need  a  leader 
with  real  ideals. 

Since  we  suddenly  switched  from  kickbacks  (in| 
the  80's)  to  cutbacks  for  the  90's,  we  hove  been 
described  as  a  lost  generation.  Maybe  we  con  turn 
these  budget  cuts  and  reductions  into  some  sort  of 
positive  growth. 

The  Lost  Generation  of  the  1920's  was  disen- 
chanted with  the  mindless  pursuit  of  material  wealth 
and  riches.  However,  from  that  rebellion  came  on 
abundance  of  creative  expression,  despite  the  -i 
political,  economic  and  social  decline.  For  example,  Ij 
F.  Scott  Fitzgerald  created  his  masterpiece  "The  ' 
Great  Gatsby,"  which  reflected  the  1920's  anti- 
materialistic    sentiments.    Frank    Lloyd    Wright    in-  , 
troduced  incredible  architectural  designs.  And  we  ' 
cannot  forget  the  contributions  of  Virginia  Woolfe, 
T.S.  Eliot,  Kotherine  Mansfield  or  D.H.  Lawrence. 

We  hove  the  beginnings  of  a  very  capable  i 
generation.  Volunteerism,  individualism,  and  diversi- 
ty have  become  a  major  part  of  today's  college 
learning  experience.  But,  with  this  beginning,  we  also 
need  to  look  bock  into  history  for  a  bit  of  direction.  It 
is  time  to  take  our  promising  advances  and  take  a 
leap  into  addressing  some  problems  full  force.  The 
late  John  F.  Kennedy  once  said,  "Ask  not  what  your 
country  can  do  for  you;  but  what  you  can  do  for 
your  country."  This  phrase  is  often  used,  but  not 
overused.  In  our  circumstances,  it  fits  quite  well  as 
advice  the  twentysomething  generation  must 
heed.  So,  let's  get  the  ball  rolling,  already!

The.  Year 


Americans  will  not  soon  forget  the  time  wtien  thie  hiighiest 
judicial  body  in  thie  land  was  viewed  by  many  as  an  interna- 
tionally televised  thiree-ring  circus.  Whien  the  accusations  of  an 
intelligent,  respected  and  poised  law  professor  gained  the 
power  to  obliterate  the  future  of  an  equally  revered  justice  pro- 
fessional. When  words  describing  bizarre  sexual  acts  and 
larger-than-life  genital  organs  were  flung  across  the  white 
backdrop  of  the  Senate  Judiciary  hearings  room  like  paper 
airplanes  in  a  classroom,  and  thrown  into  the  arena  of  live  media 
coverage  for  vindication  or  condemnation. 

Neither  accused  or  accuser  came  to  the  table  with  a  signifi- 
cant amount  of  tangible  evidence  in  support  of  their  riveting 
testimony.  Evidence  which,  in  a  formal  trial,  is  necessary  to  prove 
guilt  over  presumed  innocence.  But  this  was  not  a  trial.  Observers 
were  forced  to  cost  their  judgement  based  not  on  facts  but  on 
grave  stares,  bitter  rebuttals,  convincing  expressions  and 
sweat-lodened  brows.  The  line  separating  virtue  and  vice  was 
impossible  to  draw  with  certainty.  The  only  possible  conclusion  to 
this  wrenching  ordeal  was  simply  that  one  was  lying  and  one  was 
telling  the  truth.  But,  America  knew  that  from  the  start. 

"I  would  have  preferred  on  assassin's  bullet  to  this  kind  of  living 
hell,"  said  43-year-old  Supreme  Court  nominee  Clarence 
Thomas  of  the  October  1991  hearings  which  voiced  the  lO 


-year-old  accusations  of  sexual  harassment  unearthed  b' 
University  of  Oklahoma  low  professor  Anita  Hill. 

"There  is  no  motivation  to  show  I'd  make  something  like  thi 
up,"  replied  Hill,  a  former  employee  of  Thomas,  in  her  owi 
defense.  Hill  alleged  that  Thomas  approached  her  with  sexuc 
advances  and  explicitly  pornographic  dialogue  while  working 
under  his  tutelage  at  the  Department  of  Education  and  th( 
Equal  Opportunity  Commission  between  1981  and  1983. 

"I  am  incapable  of  proving  the  negative.  It  did  not  occur, 
Thomas  said,  regarding  the  proceedings  as  a  "high-tech  lyn 
ching  for  uppity  blacks." 

Members  of  the  judiciary  committee,  including  chairmai 
Senator  Joseph  Biden,  faced  the  same  dilemma  confronted  b 
millions  of  television  viewers,  who  were  similarly  puzzled  by  th( 
seemingly  beleivable  accounts  of  either  participant. 

Clarence  Thomas  was  confirmed  to  serve  as  a  justice  of  th( 
United  States  Supreme  Court  on  October  15,  1991  by  a  52-4. 
margin,  the  closest  vote  for  a  winning  nominee  in  llO  year: 
Thomas  said  he  would  rather  die  than  relinquish  this  opportunity 
But  neither  he  nor  his  former  colleague  will  likely  ever  be  able  t( 
shake  the  personal  ramifications  of  this  nationally  embarrasinc 
debate.

in  Review 


Seventy-four  years  of  communist  rule  came  to  a  dramatic  end 
T  the  Soviet  Union  on  August  28,  1991  as  a  group  of  desperate 
jnd  unorganized  h\Qh  party  officials  failed  in  thieir  attempt  to 
mother  the  embers  of  democracy  and  entrepreneurship  that 
hreatened  their  right-wing  communist  regime. 

In  its  early,  formative  stages,  the  coup  d'etat  emitted  jets  of 
team  for  some  time  before  the  plan  actually  blew  its  top.  The 
jight  "coup)-plotters,"  old-liners  of  power  and  stature  within  the 
"ommunist  Party  who  served  directly  under  Soviet  President 
/likhail  Gorbachev,  feared  Gorbachev's  reforms  would  threaten 
heir  position  in  Soviet  politics.  But  the  fire  under  their  feet  was  lit  in 
\ugust  when  Gorbachev  proposed  a  "union  treaty"  which 
vould  decentralize  the  Soviet  government  and  grant  economic 
^dependence  to  its  15  individual  republics.  The  party  defenders 
attempted  to  oust  their  leader,  Gorbachev,  from  office  before 
he  treaty  could  be  signed  and  thus  destroy  their  privileged  elite 
)ositions  within  the  age-old  bureaucracy. 

People  around  the  world  watched  and  waited  for  three  days 
or  the  smoke  to  clear.  Official  Soviet  reports  claimed  the  presi- 
Jent  was  ill  and  unable  to  perform  his  duties.  Actually,  Gor- 
)achev  and  his  family  were  being  detained  at  their  summer 


home  on  the  Crimea  by  a  gang  of  coup-plotters.  So  who  was  in 
charge,  then?  Vice  President  Gennady  Yonayev  announced  he 
would  assume  the  presidency. 

But  this  scenario  would  not  last  for  long.  The  popularly  elected 
Russian  President  Boris  Yeltsin,  discreetly  operating  out  of  the  Rus- 
sian Federation  Building,  rallied  support  for  the  Soviet  people 
gathered  in  the  streets  from  atop  an  army  tank.  Yeltsin,  with  his 
fist  high  in  the  air,  successfully  urged  young  Soviet  troops  to  put 
down  their  guns  and  oppose  the  coup.  Protestors  swiftly  began 
to  erect  tank  barriers  around  the  perimeter  of  the  Soviet  parlia- 
ment building. 

The  Communist  plot  rapidly  unraveled  as  coup-imposed  cen- 
sorship over  the  Soviet  medio  failed  to  deter  the  foreign  press 
from  illuminating  the  truth.  Because  otter  all,  the  truth  is  what  the 
people  want. 

Soviets  hove  been  waiting  years  for  their  government  to  follow 
through  on  its  numerous  empty  promises.  Though  the  events  of 
August  1991  mode  a  great  impact  on  the  future  of  Soviet  life  and 
liberty,  it  will  take  a  long  time  for  the  nation  to  build  a  solid  foun- 
dation for  its  people  to  sleep  comfortably  on  during  cold  Soviet 
winters.

"No  More  Cuts!" 


Thousands  of  angry  students,  staff  and  faculty  members 
donned  sandwicti  boards  in  stead  of  Halloween  costumes 
on  October  31  to  protest  thie  $40  million  in  state-mandated 
university  budget  cuts  implemented  over  the  past  two 
years.  About  1500  people,  many  of  whom  had  lost  their 
jobs  or  their  major  due  to  budget  cuts,  gathered  in  front  of 
the  Student  Union  at  lunchtime  before  proceeding  to  Main 
Administration  and  down  the  Route.  The  protest,  organized 
by  SGA  President  Paul  Carlson,  marked  the  first  unified 
movement  demanding  an  end  to  the  continued  elimination 
of  funding  and  educational  programs  at  the  university. 

As  frustrations  intensified  and  grew  more  vocal,  the 
momentum  of  protest  swept  the  University  into  the  media 


spotlight.  On  November  11,  the  anthropology  department 
sponsored  a  rally  that  drew  a  crowd  of  about  3,000  and 
resulted  in  the  arrest  of  12  protestors  who  blocked  traffic  on 
Route  One.  Ralliers  included  members  of  the  English  depart- 
ment, who  organized  their  own  protest  in  front  of  the  South 
Campus  Surge  Building  earlier  that  morning. 

The  Annapolis  stotehouse  lawn  was  covered  by  outraged 
students,  faculty  and  staff  on  November  14  as  about  600 
attempted  to  drive  their  message  home  to  Governor 
William  Donald  Schaefer.  The  Maryland  General  Assembly 
was  not  in  session,  however,  and  campus  turnout  was  less 
than  had  been  expected. 


When  You  Wish  Upon  a  Star... 


Walt  Disney  World,  the  real-life  fairy-tale  land  of  magic,  mice  and  fun,  celebrated  its 
20th  birthday  on  October  1  in  Orlando,  Florida  with  a  multitude  of  fireworks  and  fanfare. 

All  the  classic  Disney  characters  were  present,  including  Mickey  and  Minnie  Mouse, 
Pinocchio,  and  Chip  and  Dale,  as  well  as  the  recently  star-struck  Roger  Rabbit.  A  "Spec- 
troMogic"  parade  sparked  the  night  air  as  thousands  of  amazed  visitors  watched 
Mickey  float  down  Main  Street  on  a  cloud  of  glowing  light. 

Eighty  million  Americans  have  experienced  Disney  World  at  some  point  in  their  lives. 
Even  after  20  years,  Disney's  masterpiece  remains  a  living,  forever  expanding  symbol  of 
hope  and  beauty  in  a  fast-paced  world  where  life  is  seldom  a  paradise.

Memorial  Quilt  Personifies 
AIDS  Statistics 

People  die  from  AIDS;  numbers  don't. 

The  names,  faces,  hobbies,  interests  and  goals 
of  32  individuals  who  died  from  AIDS  were 
displayed  in  the  Student  Union  lost  October  in  a 
patchwork  of  colorful  panels. 

Three  of  the  panels  represented  the  lives  of 
people  who  were  directly  involved  with  the 
university.  The  quilt  was  provided  by  the  NAMES 
Project  Chapter  of  the  National  Capitol  Area  to 
serve  as  a  reminder  of  AIDS  awareness  week, 
which  lasted  from  November  11-16. 

At  that  time,  the  national  AIDS  quilt  contained 
14,000  of  the  three-by-six  foot  panels.  In  Oc- 
tober of  1992,  the  entire  120,000-panel  interna- 
tional AIDS  quilt  will  be  displayed  in  Washington, 
DC. 


Basketbell  superstar  Earvin  "Magic"  Johnson,  known  for 
his  sparkling  smile  and  mastery  of  the  court  announced 
on  November  7  he  had  contracted  the  AIDS  virus  and 
was  retiring  from  professional  basketball. 

"This  is  not  like  my  life  is  over,  because  it's  not,"  Johnson 
stated  at  a  press  conference  at  Great  Western  Forum,  his 
12-year  home  as  a  Los  Angeles  Laker.  The  three-time 
Most  Valuable  Player  winner,  still  carrying  that  magical 
smile,  camly  reassured  the  public  that  he  would  continue 
to  be  active  in  other  aspects  of  the  game. 

Johnson,  32,  said  he  did  not  yet  exerience  any  com- 
plications from  the  disease,  but  was  urgged  to  retire  from 
professional  play  by  his  physician,  Michael  Mellmon. 
Mellman  said  the  rigors  of  training  would  weaken 
Johnson's  physical  condition  and  hasten  the  onset  of 
AIDS.

Theodor  Seuss  Geisel,  the  man  whose  colorful 
rhyme  enlightened  the  minds  and  warmed  the 
hearts  of  millions  worldwide,  died  September  27 
at  the  age  of  87. 


Known  by  most  as  Dr.  Seuss,  the  Pulitzer  Prize- 
winning  children's  author  wrote  47  books  that 
touched  the  lives  of  people  of  all  ages.  Geisel's 
stories,  such  as  ...And  to  Think  I  Saw  it  on  Mulberry

lessons  of  respect,  honesty  and  integrity  with  sen- 
sitivity, humor  and  character.

Greeks 


The  meaning  of  life...Greek  life,  that  is, 
may  appear  to  consist  solely  of  beer,  par- 
ties, and  fraternity  row.  But  to  over  300 
Greeks  at  Maryland,  Greek  life  is  much 
deeper  than  that.  It  means  not  only  fun, 
but  togetherness,  responsibility  to  the 
house  and  to  the  community  and 
building  a  foundation  for  life  after  college. 

In  the  area  of  scholarship,  Greeks  have 
been  known  to  excel.  Many  Greeks  are 
members  of  such  honorary  societies  as 
the  Golden  Key  National  Honor  Society, 
Mortar  Board,  and  Omicron  Delta  Kappa. 
The  all-greek  GPA  is  usually  very  com- 
petitive with  the  all-campus  GPA.  The 
Inter-Fraternity  Council  further  promoted 
that  fact  this  year  by  raising  the  require- 
ment for  initiation  to  a  2.5  GPA. 

This  is  rvDt  to  claim  that  Greek  life  is 
completely  serious,  either.  The  following 
pages  contain  only  a  fraction  of  the 
many  activities  that  Greeks  partake  in. 
For  example,  Faternity  and  Sorority  Rush, 
Homecoming,  Greek  Week,  and  various 
philanthropies.

Greek  Togethermss 


Parties,  drinking  and  more  parties.  Most 
people  on  campus  believe  ttnot  is  what 
fraternities  and  sororities  are  all  about.  But 
there  is  more  to  it  than  that,  much  more. 
Yes,  there  is  the  social  aspect,  but 
members  are  often  very  active  in  other 
parts  of  the  university  including  athletics, 
academics  and  campus  clubs. 

One  of  the  most  important  ports  of  be- 
ing a  member  of  a  fraternity  or  a  sorority 
is  the  brotherhood,  or  sisterhood  aspect 
of  them.  The  closeness  that  each 
member  of  any  house  shares  with  the 
other  brothers  or  sisters  of  that  house. 
Many  members  believe  that  this  is  the 
most  important  aspect  of  being  a 
brother,  or  sister. 

The  brotherhood,  or  sisterhood  aspect 
meant  different  things  to  different  peo- 
ple. To  some  it  brought  about  the  feeling 
of  family  away  from  family.  Sigma  Kappa 
member,  Gwen  Werbowsky  said  that 
since  she  isn't  from  Maryland,  the 
sisterhood  part  of  her  sorority  brought  her 
that  closeness  that  she  might  be  missing. 

'The  (the  sisters)  ore  like  my  family 
away  from  home.  They  give  me 
everything  I  need;  support  and  friendship. 


It's  a  very  special  feeling,"  said 
Werbowsky. 

Beta  Theto  Pi  fraternity  brother  Greg 
Moss  echoed  that  sentiment  by  saying, 
"During  pledging  we  learn  things  to  reach 
the  brotherhood,  but  once  initiation  hap- 
pens, it's  like  you've  got  a  new  big  family. 
Everyone  is  there  for  everyone  else." 

Many  fraternities  and  sororities  had  cer- 
tain  activities  geared  towards 
strengthening  the  feelings  of 
brotherhood  and  sisterhood.  The  most 
popular  way  is  retreats  in  which  the 
whole  house  tries  to  go  away  for  a  night 
or  weekend. 

"Retreats  are  a  really  good  way  of  get- 
ting to  know  everyone  better,"  said 
Alpha  Delta  Pi  sister,  Leonore  Cotalla. 
"We  spend  the  day  together  and  get  to 
know  each  other  better.  It  (retreats)  br- 
ings us  closer  together,"  she  said. 

Brotherhood  or  sisterhood  is  just  one 
way  that  fraternities  and  sororities  try  to 
bring  all  the  members  together  in 
strengthening  the  house. 

"If  you  every  need  anything,  the  other 
sisters  ore  always  willing  to  do  anything 
for  you,"  said  Werbowsky.

Tfte  Kush  E^cperience 


"Smile.  Be  charming.  Look  good.  Watch 
your  posture.  Think  of  wonderful  and 
charming  things  to  say.  And  most  of  all, 
just  be  yourself.  You  have  a  life  decision 
ahead  of  you,  after  all. .  ." 

At  the  time,  I  felt  I  was  auditioning  for 
the  nation's  top  modeling  agency.  In 
reality,  that  advice  was  given  to  me  by 
my  Rush  counselor,  and  I  was  about  to 
experience  Fall  Formal  Rush. 

To  some.  Rush  seems  like  a  negative 
thing.  All  the  fuss,  the  seemingly  endless 
competition,  the  hype  and  what  seems 
like  a  million  endlessly  superficial  conver- 
sations. Yet  somehow,  many  people 
came  out  of  Rush  with  some  of  the  best 
memories  of  their  college  career. 

Rush  is  approximately  a  two-week  pro- 
cess, where  rushees  visit  Maryland's  18 
sororties  and,  as  the  weeks  progress,  nar- 
row them  down  to  12,  then  to  six,  and  then 
finally  to  the  three  sororities  that  they  like 
the  best. 

Why  does  it  take  two  weeks?  The  pro- 
cess is  long  because  there  are  so  many 
sororities  at  Maryland.  Not  having  oil  this 
time  to  go  to  each  house  and  see  what 
each  is  oil  about  would  be  just  about  as 
bad  as  picking  a  college  without  visiting  it 
first.  So,  the  process  is  long.  As  rushees, 
girls  try  to  impress  the  sisters  of  the 
respective  houses.  Sisters  of  the  houses  in 
turn,  try  to  impress  the  rushees. 


However,  it  is  what  is  NOT  seen  at  fir ' 
glance  that  is  the  most  important  pa 
the  conversations  that  go  on  inside  th 
houses.  As  a  rushee  advances  furthc 
and  further  into  the  Rush  process,  or 
finds  herself  making  friends  almost  in  spH 
of  herself. 

The  best  part  of  Rush  was  Preference 
This  is  when  the  girls  visited  their  three  tc 
choices,  in  one  night,  spending  over  or 
hour  at  each  house.  This  is  the  night  whe 
the  girls  get  to  find  out  what  the  siste 
are  really  like.  The  hype  from  the  fir 
week  of  Rush  is  gone,  replaced  by  mor 
serious  talks  and  demonstrations  of  th 
sorority's  sisterhood.  This  is  when  most  ( 
the  girls  finally  try  to  decide  which  hous 
will  be  the  best  for  them. 

The  next  big  thing  is  Bid  Day,  when  all  ( 
the  rushees  found  out  if  they  were  invite 
to  pledge  the  house  that  they  real 
wanted  to. 

Whether  rushees  get  into  the  hous 
that  they  really  wanted  or  maybe  the 
second  choice,  they  experience 
something  that  not  every  person  on  th 
campus  got  to  experience,  a  feeling  c 
fun,  and  maybe  even  something  mor 
important,  a  feeling  of  gaining  ne^ 
friendships  that  will  last  them  for  a  ver 
long  time.

Resident  life 


Living  on  campus  at  College  Park  is  a 
unique  experience.  From  freshmen  to 
seniors,  friendships  grow  out  of  the  little 
things  we  do  together.  Walking  down  to 
the  Route  on  a  sunny  afternoon,  playing 
volleyball  on  LaPlata  Beach,  throwing  a 
frisbee  on  the  chapel  lawn,  or  just  hang- 
ing out  eating  pizza  all  have  the  magical 
effect  of  drawing  us  together. 

Students  are  here  because  they  seek 
new  experiences,  excitement, 
camaraderie  and  satisfaction.  Each  and 
every  student  is  a  mature  individual 
whose  needs,  concerns,  values,  hopes 
and  joys  are  respected. 

Playing  together  helps  students  relax 
and  keep  their  lives  in  focus  at  times 
when  the  pressures  of  college  seem  too 
difficult  to  handle  alone.  Working 
together  encourages  the  mind  to  ex- 
pand and  learn.  But,  even  just  living 
together  makes  one  realize  that  uni- 
queness is  a  virtue  to  be  rewarded. 


TOP  TEN  REASONS  TO  LIVE  ON 
CAMPUS  AT  UMCP 


^0.  Get  your  money's  worth  out  of  the  UM  Shuttle  System. 

9.  Compete  for  the  most  days  on  individual  can  go  without    doing  a 
load  of  laundry. 

8.  Experience  the  exhiiirating  rush  of  scalding  hot  water  in  the  shower 
when  someone  flushes  the  toilet. 

7.  Listen  to  the  sexy  Voice  Message  Center  recordings. 

6.  Prove  to  your  parents  that  pizza  with  everything  on  it  provides 
nourishment  from  the  four  food  groups. 

5.  This  is  the  only  time  you  will  welcome  a  pink  slip  in  your  mailbox. 

4.  Dust  bunnies  make  adorable  pets. 

3.  Why  spend  thousands  in  plastic  surgery  for  a  more  voluptuous 
figure  when  Dining  Services  produces  the  same  results  without  the 
pain. 

2.  For  the  little  red  light  that  blinks  happily  on  Friday  afternoons. 

1.  To  discover  strange  and  interesting  people,  become  a  significant 
other,  and  find  out  that  the  "Real  World"  is  not  in  the  next  galaxy,  but 
right  outside  your  front  door. 


Routine  journeys  to  the  dining  hall  were  relative- 
ly uneventful  for  most  hungry  campus  residents. 
But,  for  Cambridge  Community  residents,  this  dai- 
ly trip  became  a  unique  challenge. 

Many  a  student  strolling  along  the  paths  on  the 
south  side  of  Cumberland,  towards  Ellicott  Diner, 
has  suddenly  felt  a  rush  of  cold  water  burst  on 
them.  You  were  a  source  of  target  practice  for 
Cumberland's  own  eighth  floor  missile  hurlers. 

Anyone  living  in  Cambridge  Community  quickly 
learned  to  keep  a  watchful  eye  for  airborne  pro- 
jectiles when  venturing  past  Cumberland. 
Multicolor  water-balloon  condoms  were  olways' 
a  favorite,  along  with  shaving  cream,  carry-out 
containers  filled  with  spaghetti  casserole, 
chocolate  cream  pie  and  various  other  menu 
items. 

What  is  the  meaning  of  this  nonsense?  Perhaps  it 
is  a  post-exam  tension  reliever.  Or  maybe  an  ex- 
pressive outlet  for  those  closet  B-52  Bomber 
junkies.  Some  have  suggested  that  shoving  un- 
wanted food  out  the  window  is  an  ethical 
response  to  the  bimonthly  point  limit  on  the  meal 
plan.  But  no  matter  what  the  underlying  rationale, 
Cambridge  residents  could  be  seen  walking 
towards  Ellicott  Diner  with  meal  cards  in  hand 
and  umbrellas  as  protection  from  rejected  meals.

Residents  of  Cambridge  Community  were  very  active  in 
intramural  sports  as  well  as  programs  organized  by  CAC  to 
promote  social  awareness,  self-improvement  and  com- 
munity service. 

"Into  thie  Streets,"  a  new  committee  formed  thiis  year, 
brought  student  volunteers  to  area  nursing  hiomes  and 
chiildren's  hiospitols  to  give  love  and  comfort  to  the  elderly 
and  to  adolescent  victims  of  AIDS  or  drug  addiction. 

Another  program,  "Living  in  a  Diverse  Community  - 
Creating  a  Common  Ground,"  was  the  theme  for  Diversity 
Week  (Oct.  18-23)  this  year,  featuring  a  homosexuality 
owareness  program. 

"Get  it,"  a  campus-wide  program,  also  encouraged  com- 
munity involvement  by  awarding  cash  prizes  of  up  to 
$2500  to  resident  hall  units  that  attended  the  most  ex- 
tracurricular campus  events  and  showed  the  most  spirit. 
(Congratulations  to  Centreville-D...the  winners  of  last  spr- 
ing's 1st  prize!)  The  program  culminated  with  the  Baltimore 
Inner  Harbor  boot  cruise,  a  sell-out  every  year. 

Cambridge  Community  Center  hosts  "Finals  Relief"  each 
semester,  offering  snacks  and  a  chance  to  unwind  to  weary 
studiers.  Also,  during  "Olympic  Weekend,"  residents  played 
crazy  games,  revved-up  for  spring  semester  finals...and 
summer  vocation! 


DENTON 


Denton  was  considered  more  community-oriented  than  othier 
residence  hall  areas.  Due  to  its  location  on  the  outer  reaches  of  cam- 
pus, Denton  Community  focused  heavily  on  programming  innovative 
social,  safety,  and  awareness  activities  to  foster  community  spirit. 

For  example,  Easton  RA's  developed  C.A.R.E.  (Caring  About 
Residents  of  Easton),  a  group  which  held  safety  programs  covering 
such  topics  as  self-defense  and  drug  awareness.  Last  year,  Denton 
was  extremely  active  in  campus  blood  drives  and  even  won  an  award 
for  their  participation.  In  addition,  Easton  RA's  were  recognized  for 
"Easton  Hall  We  Earn  Our  A's",  a  series  of  programs  designed  to  unite 
students  in  the  areas  of  athletics,  academics,  awareness  and 
activities. 

Social  programs  were  also  very  important  to  Denton  residents.  The 
Easton  Hall  Council  hosted  a  "Dating  Gome."  Other  hall  councils  tradi- 
tionally organize  Halloween  trick-or-treating  parties  for  children  of 
local  homeless  shelters,  including  a  haunted  house,  topped  off  with  a 
free  dinner  at  Denton  Dining  Hall.

Residents  of  Ellicott  Community  hod  many  reasons  to  be  ttiankful 
and  proud  of  their  community.  After  all,  their  flagship  residence  hall 
had  a  doily  cartoon  named  offer  it.  La  Plato  women  hove  a  mere 
lO-second  walk  to  the  convenience  store.  Ellicott  residents  never 
have  to  fear  being  short  on  cash  on  a  Friday  night  because  of  a 
MOST  machine  right  outside  their  front  door.  To  top  it  all  off,  Ellicott 
Diner  has  o  50's-style  jukebox  that  ploys  selections  from  Elvis  to  Billy 
Joel.  What  more  could  anyone  ask  for? 

The  onnuol  spring  Beach  Week  celebration  offered  a  variety  of 
unique  gomes  and  entertainment.  Some  of  the  favorites  were 
weight  lifting  competitions,  Jello  wrestling,  ond  comedy  perfor- 
mances by  Erasable,  Inc. 

Ellicott  also  has  a  strong  tradition  of  community  service  and 
awareness  programs.  Each  year  during  Halloween  week,  Ellicott 
volunteers  escort  inner-city  children  from  the  Washington 
metropolitan  area  through  their  community's  residence  halls  for  a 
fun-filled  afternoon  of  trick-or-treoting. 

Block  Students  of  North  Campus  (originally  Block  Students  of 
Ellicoff  Community)  is  on  organization  which  oims  to  provide 
students  with  support  and  progroms  that  transcend  troditionol 
Black  History  Month  activities.  In  November,  BSNC  sponsored  o  Rela- 
tionship Forum,  and  later  hosted  on  open  house  which  united 
students,  faculty  and  administrators  to  discuss  career  goals, 
academic  planning  and  other  topics  of  interest.  Though  open  to  oil 
North  Campus  residents,  BSNC  events  ore  primarily  organized  by 
representatives  from  Ellicott  Community.

The  North  Hill  Area  Council  is  responsible  for  organizing  a  large  number  of 
events.  For  example,  two  or  three  times  each  semester,  the  coucil  invited  a 
prominent  faculty  member  or  administrator  as  a  guest  lecturer  for  its  Dinner 
Series.  Anyv»/here  from  15  to  20  residents  participate  in  the  program,  providing 
a  discussion  of  interesting  topics  in  a  casual  atmosphere. 

R.A.'s  in  Queen  Anne's  Hall  showed  a  series  of  videos  on  drug  abuse  and 
awareness,  entitling  the  program.  "An  Essay  on  Drugs."  R.A.'s  in  other  halls  also 
offered  an  array  of  unique  programs  on  current  issues  such  as  intercultural 
relationships. 

Residents  of  Worcester  and  Dorchester  Halls  took  a  field  trip  to  Tawes 
Theater  this  fall  to  see  Shakespeare's  "A  Midsummer  Night's  Dream."  This  ac- 
tivity was  especially  worthwhile  as  distinguished  faculty  members  were  invited 
to  see  the  play  and  discuss  it  with  the  students. 

The  North  Hill  Area  Council  sponsored  a  major  Halloween  festival  for  a  local 
children's  home.  The  youngsters  were  treated  to  a  party,  a  haunted  house, 
face  painting  and,  of  course,  the  traditional  crusade  for  goodies. 

But,  as  fall  finals  drew  near.  North  Hill  students  rubbed  Testudo  for  good  luck 
on  their  exams...and  hoped  their  "holiday  buddy"  brought  them  a  gift  to 
brighten  their  spirits  and  get  them  psyched  for  winter  break!

Tfte  Grand  C^aiing 


The  International  House  (l-House) 
was  officially  christened  on  October 
2,  1991  with  a  traditional  ribbon- 
cutting  ceremony  celebrating  its 
grand  opening.  Over  two  hundred 
faculty  members,  distinguished 
guests  and  students  gathered  to 
herald  in  a  product  of  their  hard 
work. 

"For  many,  this  is  like  a  dream 
come  true,"  said  Valerie  Woolston, 
Director  of  International  Education 
Services.  In  the  midst  of  a  tense 
budget  situation.  President  Kirwan 
expressed  a  sigh  of  relief  that  Dor- 
chester was  able  to  open  its  doors. 
Attendants  applauded  the  dedica- 
tion and  persistance  of  more  than 
22  offices  whose  efforts  brought  the 
program  to  its  successful 
completion. 


The  traditional  ribbon-cutting 


"You've  been  given  the  oppor- 
tunity -  now  it's  your  job  to  take  the 
boll  and  carry  it,"  said  His  Excellency, 
W.  Susonto  de  Alwis,  of  the  Sri 
Lankan  Embassy,  one  of  several 
foreign  ambassadors  attending  the 
celebration.  All  students  must  fulfill 
their  responsibility  as  membes  of  an 
international  community,  h^  stress- 
ed, by  gaining  exposure  to  the  rest 
of  the  world. 

Senior  Ralph  Brenner,  president  of 
the  l-House  Council,  discussed  some 
of  the  committees  and  special 
events  planned  to  promote  unity, 
friendship  and  fun.  An  official  I- 
House  T-shirt  and  flag  and  interna- 
tional fashion  show  were  planned, 
among  other  events. 

The  colorful  rooms  of  l-House 
students  are  adorned  with  notional 
flogs,  cultural  posters  and  artwork  of 
all  kinds.  Memo  boards  overflow 
with  greetings  written  in  foreign 
languages.  l-House  students  are  ob- 
viously enthusiastic  and  proud  of 
their  heritage. 

"There's  more  spirit  and  involve- 
ment here  than  I've  ever  seen,"  said 
Brenner,  "There's  so  much  going  on, 
it's  a  challenge  to  keep  up  with  it  - 
but  a  very  welcome  challenge." 


DORCHESTER 

Intematiormf  House 


We  are  all  proud  this  year  to  welcome 
Dorchester  International  House  into  the 
community  of  residence  halls  here  at 
Maryland. 

Designed  in  the  traditional  resident  hall 
fashion,  Dorchester  houses  approximate- 
ly 155  students  who  come  from  the  Unitec 
States  and  32  foreign  countries. 

The  International  House  in  essence  was 
conceived  as  a  microcosm  of  the  Univer-| 
sity  -  a  heterogeneous  mixture  of  peoplel 
from  all  over  the  world  who  come 
together  to  live,  work,  play  and  share 
their  distinct  cultural  lifestyles  with  one 
another. 

A  valuable  asset  to  Dorchester 
residents  are  the  visiting  scholars  who  live 
in  an  apartment  within  the  bulding  tot 
several  weeks  at  a  time.  The  scholars  are 
research  faculty  who  choose  to  live! 
among  fellow  students  with  the  hope  o1 
helping  them  to  learn  from  their  schoiarlyi 
expertise,  personal  experience  as  well  as 
becoming  a  good  friend. 

Dorchester  residents  are  not  requirea 
to  speak  a  foreign  language.  They  only 
need  to  express  a  strong  desire  to  furthei 
their  multicultural  exposure  and  to  con- 
tribute personal  experiences  as  c 
member  of  the  International  House. 


"It's  the  closest  thing  to  octuolly  living  in  a 
foreign  country."  -  Eric  Wert,  sophomore, 
Spanish  cluster. 


"Our  abilites  have  improved  tenfold." 
"Living    here   requires   a    certain   level    of 

maturity."   -   David   Mandell,   senior,   Spanish 

cluster. 


"It's  a  real  classy  place  to  live." 

"When  you're  speaking  Hebrew,  you  feel  like 
c  part  of  the  land."  -  Lew  Fontek.  junior, 
Hebrew  cluster. 


"The  language  embraces  us  -  it  brings  us  all 
together."  -  Andrew  Gutman,  junior,  Hebrew 
cluster. 


"If  I  hadn't  studied  here.  I  would  have  been 
lost  in  Italy."  -  Jennifer  Bates,  senior,  Italian 
cluster. 


5T.MART'5 

Lanquaqe  House 


Probably  the  next  best  thing  to  studying  abroad  is  living  in  St.  Mary's 
Language  House.  Residents  experience  "language  immersion"  on  a  daily 
basis.  The  91  students  shore  19  apartments  that  are  divided  into  seven  clusters, 
each  speaking  in  a  different  tongue.  French,  German,  Hebrew,  Italian. 
Japanese,  Russian  and  Spanish  are  spoken.  Students  communicate  within 
their  cluster  solely  in  their  respective  language,  although  individual  units  inter- 
relate using  English. 

There  is  a  strong  sense  of  community  at  St.  Mary's  because  of  a  common 
goal  to  become  masters  of  a  language  and  to  experience  a  little  of  the 
world's  cultural  diversity.  Members  of  the  Hebrew  cluster,  for  example, 
schedule  hall  meetings  to  coincide  with  Jewish  religious  celebrations.  Students 
frequently  cook  native  dishes  together  and  converse  in  a  friendly 
atmosphere. 

A  live-in  graduate  student  leads  each  language  cluster.  They  interact  as 
fellow  students,  mentors,  and  friends. 

St.  Mary's  has  undergone  significant  technlogical  improvements  over  the 
post  few  years,  A  computer  system  was  added  as  well  as  a  satellite  dish  that 
receives  international  television  broadcasts.  To  strengthen  their  understanding 
of  world  history  and  events,  residents  visit  national  embassies  and  guest 
speakers  come  from  Washington  and  beyond.  Such  resources  ore  part  of  an 
effort  to  make  St.  Mary's  a  distinctive  place  to  grow  and  learn. 


...OS   Citizens 


Many  undergraduates  spent  their  first  year  or  two  on  campus  in  the  high 
rises,  surrounded  by  numerous  students,  sharing  many  of  the  some  intellectual 
and  social  needs. 

But  once  junior  year  rolls  around,  students  have  developed  an  established 
group  of  friends  and  become  secure  in  their  career  goals.  Such  students  often 
choose  to  reside  in  a  South  Hill  suite  or  apartment. 

First,  students  must  live  on  campus  four  semesters  before  they  are  eligible  to 
apply  for  a  room  in  South  Hill.  Here,  residents  enjoy  a  private,  independent 
lifestyle,  while  reaping  the  benefits  and  conveniences  of  living  on  campus. 
Students  in  apartments  ore  not  required  to  be  on  the  meal  plan,  and  thus 
have  the  opportunity  to  do  their  own  cool<ing. 

Varsity  football  and  basketball  players  are  grouped  together  in  separate 
suites  dispersed  throughout  the  community.  But  despite  rigid  practice  and 
class  schedules,  they  made  time  to  get  involved  in  area  events. 

For  example,  the  annual  Spring  Basketball  Tournament  gave  varsity  athletes 
the  chance  to  be  "coach  for  a  day."  The  competition  between  area  residents 
is  traditionally  held  on  the  Washington  quad  court  and  has  continued  to  be  a 
shining  success. 

South  Hill  residents  socialize  in  an  intimate,  home-style  atmosphere.  The 
fireside  lounge  in  the  Annapolis  Hall  community  center  provides  a  cozy  living- 
room  environment  where  residents  can  relax,  study  or  just  snuggle  by  the 
warmth  of  a  fire.  Also,  residents  work  out  in  the  community's  fitness  center, 
available  to  South  Hill  residents.

Adele  H.  Stamo  Union 


Director:  Dr.  James  Osteon 


The  Adele  H.  Stamp  Student  Union 
serves  as  the  center  of  campus  life  for 
the  entire  University  community.  Over  its 
40  year  history,  the  Union  has  grown  from 
a  small  recreation  center  into  the  promi- 
nent source  of  social,  educational,  and 
recreational  activity  for  the  campus.  To- 
day, the  Union  provides  a  diverse  range 
of  programs  and  services  used  by  over 
19,000  people  doily.  Such  programs  vary 
from  comedy  in  Nite  Life  to  guided 
weekend  trips,  from  guest  lectures  to  ex- 
citing musical  entertainment,  as  well  as 
campus-wide  social  events,  such  as  the 
annual  All-Niter.  The  Union  houses  the 
Hoff  Theater,  the  Art  Center,  the  Recrea- 
tion Center,  in  addition  to  shops  and 
restaurants;  all  of  which  provide  a 
welcome  relief  from  academic  pressures. 


Guest  Services 


Director:  Patrick  Perfetto 


When  the  students  left  campus  in  May, 
Campus  Guest  Services  opened  the 
doors  of  campus  dorms  to  summer 
guests.  Most  guests  come  to  attend  con- 
ferences held  at  the  University  while 
others  attended  sports  camps, 
Pan-Hellenic  events,  college  preparatory 
programs  and  even  religious  con- 
ferences. The  low  cost  and  variety  of 
facilities  available  at  the  University  were 
attractive  reasons  for  choosing  the 
University  instead  of  a  conference 
center. 

Summer  conferences  kept  the  campus 
active,  provided  work  for  students  and 
created  revenue  helping  to  defray  the 
cost  of  housing,  meals  and  other  services 
during  the  school  year. 


Commuter  Affairs 


)irector:Dr,  Barbara  Jacoby 


It  all  began  with  only  a  shoebox  full  of 
ords  listing  housing  and  two  vans, 
>ought  second-hand  by  the  SGA  to  pro- 
ide  security  service  on  campus. 
1992  marks  the  Office  of  Commuter  Af- 
airs'  20th  Anniversary  fo  service  to 
tudents  who  live  off-campus.  The 
hoebox  has  been  transformed  into  a 
omputerized  off-campus  housing  refer- 
3l  service.  The  two  vans  have  grown  into 
^e  40-bus  Shuttle-UM  system.  The 
amiliar  red-and-white  buses  provide 
9liable  service  to  student  on  ten  com- 
luter  routes,  four  evening  security 
Dutes,  and  Call-A-Ride.  In  addition,  OCA 
irovides  students  with  information  on 
ansportation  alternatives  and  other 
ommuter  issues. 


Health  Center 


Director;  Dr.  Margaret  Bridwell 


The  Health  Center's  mission  is  to  pro- 
vide a  quality  ambulatory  health  care 
service  that  promotes  and  maintains  the 
optimum  well  being  of  the  campus'  stu- 
dent population.  It  is  the  goal  of  the 
Center  to  provide  quality  clinical  services 
augmented  by  educational  programs 
that  provide  learning  opportunities  that 
promote  a  healthier  lifestyle. 

In  an  average  year  the  Health  Center 
treats  between  eighty-five  and  ninety 
thousand  students.  Educational  pro- 
grams offered  range  from  CPR  training, 
alcohol  and  drug  prevention  programs, 
to  seminars  on  sexuality  and  communica- 
tion. The  Health  Center  also  provides 
many  employment,  volunteer,  and  intern- 
ship opportunities  to  students  with  public 
service  or  health  related  career  interests.

help  participants  to  increase  their  energy 
level,  cope  with  stress,  control  their  ap- 
petite, monitor  weight  control  that  will 
ultimately  result  in  an  improved 
self-image.  The  1991  Timex  Fitness  Week 
featured  the  World's  Largest  Aerobics 
Class  and  Mini-Triathalon  that  provided 
additional  opportunities  for  those  com- 
mitted to  fitness. 

Open   Recreation  provides  numerous 


opportunites  for  unstructured  recrea- 
tional activity  to  take  place.  From  swimm- 
ing to  squash,  the  choices  are  endless...

students  is  trained  to  act  as  the  presiding 
officer  and  a  graduate  student  acts  as 
the  board's  advisor.  The  boards  have  the 
responsibilities  of  reviewing  cases  of 
alleged  misconduct  and  recommending 
sanctions  to  the  Director  of  JPO.

Five  hundred  years  ago,  in  1492,  Chris- 
topher Columbus  left  behind  the  only 
world  he  knew  to  sail  off  and  discover  a 
new  world  Now  as  we  graduate,  we  too 
must  leave  behind  the  safe  and  familiar 
world  of  the  University  of  Maryland  and 
set  off  over  the  horizon  to  discover  new 
worlds. 

Yet  it  does  not  seem  that  long  ago 
since  we  first  entered  the  University  of 
Maryland  as  scared,  nervous  freshmen  or 
transfer  students  When  we  first  came 
here  the  campus  appeared  huge  and 
overwhelming.  We  got  lost  going  to  class 
on  the  first  day,  mispronounced  "Talia- 
ferro Building",  and  did  not  know  how  to 
waitlist  Worst  of  all  we  knew  hardly 
anyone. 

Since  then  we  have  learned  how  to 
handle  any  situation  the  university  might 
throw  at  us.  We  have  survived  waitlisting 
in  the  Armory,  finding  a  parking  space  in 
the  crowded  lot  1 ,  and  stayed  up  all  night 
writing  term  papers.  We  even  survived 
severe  budget  cuts  that  threatened  the 
demise  of  several  departments,  major 
construction  that  left  the  campus  one  gi- 
ant mud  puddle,  and  tougher  standards 
which  the  university  has  established  to 
become  a  top  ten  school. 

Despite  all  the  heartaches  that  Mary- 
land has  caused  us,  it  has  become  home 
to  us.  and  we  will  miss  it.  As  we  graduate, 
we  leave  behind  the  beauty  of  the  flow- 
ering M  and  the  lush  McKeldin  Mall  on 
spring  days.  We  shall  miss  the  companion- 
ship of  our  friends,  the  advice  of  our  men- 
tors, and  the  freedom  of  being  an 
undergraduate  student.  We  will  leave 
behind  the  immense  wealth  of  knowl- 
edge this  institution  has  to  offer.  Luckily, 
during  our  stay  here,  we  captured  some 
of  that  knowledge  to  take  with  us. 

Now,  watch  out  world  here  we  come! 
After  four... or  five... or  six  years  here,  we 
ore  finally  graduating!

A  unique  example  of  excellence  in  the 
College  of  Education,  Rachel  Arbeter  is 
not  only  a  1991  Maryland  graduate,  but  is 
well  on  her  way  to  graduate  school. 
While  still  a  senior,  Arbeter  took  graduate 
courses.  Just  one  year  after  getting  her 
bachelor's  degree,  she  will  earn  her 
Masters  in  the  Department  of  Special 
Education. 

Arbeter,  originally  from  Merion  Station, 
PA,  has  been  extremely  involved  in 
numerous  campus  activities.  As  a 
member  of  Phi  Sigma  Sigma  sorority, 
Arbeter  was  the  Fall  '88  Pledge  Class 
Scholarship  Chairperson.  She  has  been 
honored  as  a  member  of  the  Golden  Key 
National  Honor  Society,  Who's  Who 
Among  Students  in  American  Colleges

Spirit  of  Maryland  Award,  served  as  the 
1991  President  of  Kappa  Delta  Pi  and  the

Working  as  both  a  peer  advisor  and 
teaching  assistant  within  the  department, 
Arbeter  also  managed  to  complete 
seven  semesters  of  teaching  at  area  high 
schools.  Specializing  in  helping  individuals 
aged  18  to  21  with  severe  and  profound 


mental  disabilities,  Arbeter  now  teaches 
two  days  a  week  in  addition  to  attending 
graduate  level  courses.  The  individuals 
she  helps  ore  in  need  of  training  and  aid 
in  adjusting  to  job  sites  after  completion 
of  high  school. 


As  for  the  future,  Arbeter  wants  "to  help 
young  adults  with  severe  disabilities  to 
gain  employment  and  develop  the  skills 
to  live  successfully  in  society."  Eventually, 
Arbeter  would  like  to  be  an  advocate  for 
disabled  people  in  the  legislative  area.

The  President  of  UM's  Finance  Banl<ing  and  Investment 
Society  graduated  from  College  Park  to  enter  a  working 
world  he  has  already  been  part  of  during  his  entire 
academic  career.  Bryan  Beatty  paid  for  his  own  educa- 
tion by  working  at  a  full-time  job  since  starting  school. 
Nevertheless,  this  finance  major  has  been  a  port  of  the 
Dean's  Council  for  the  Business  College,  the  AT&T  Col- 
legiate Investment  Challenge,  and  outside  business 
enterprises. 

Originally  an  engineering  major,  Beatty  left  school  for 
three  semesters  after  his  sophomore  year  to  "find  out 
what  I  was  interested  in."  Beatty  worked  as  a  designer  at 
an  engineering  firm  and  traveled,  but  then  discovered  he 
really  wanted  to  make  money. 

Returning  to  school  and  the  world  of  business,  Beatty 
undertook  a  variety  of  jobs  and  internships.  Over  the 
past  six  years  he  bartended,  worked  as  a  waiter  and 
manager,  in  such  establishments  as  the  he  94th  Aeros- 
quadron,  a  College  Park  watering  hole.  In  the  spring  of 
1990,  Beatty  was  on  intern  to  the  vice  president  of  Wheat 
First  Securities,  an  area  financial  institution.  Over  the  past 
summer,  Beatty  managed  his  own  painting  contracting 
company  in  which  he  generated  revenues  of  $120,000 
with  a  profit  margin  of  21%. 

As  for  the  future,  Beatty  has  received  five  offers  for 
employment  following  graduation.  He  will  be  accepting 
one  of  the  opportunities  in  the  financial  services  industry.

Mary  Margaret  Pessoney,  or  Mimi  as 
she  likes  to  be  called,  has  accomplished 
quite  a  few  goals  during  her  college 
career. 

Pessoney,  President  of  the  International 
Honor  Society  for  education  students  is 
an  elementary  education  major.  In  addi- 
tion, she  would  like  to  incorporate  both 
her  bilingual  and  teaching  skills  to  pursue 
her  dream. 

Pessoney  transferred  to  Maryland  from 
Willenburg  College,  a  small  liberal  arts 
college  in  Ohio.  At  Willenburg,  she  swam 
competitively  on  the  school  team.  She 
was  also  a  member  of  the  University  of 
Maryland  swim  team  for  one  and  a  half 
years,  although  she  was  not  a  com- 
petitive swimmer. 

After  graduation,  Pessoney  plans  to  at- 
tend graduate  school.  Her  inclination  is  to 
study  TOEFL,  the  teaching  of  English  as  a 
foreign  language.

To  GRE  or  not  to  GRE,  that  is  ttie  ques- 
tion many  of  us  hove  faced  with  the  ap- 
proach of  graduation.  Grad  school,  law 
school,  med  school,  or  the  "real  world." 
What  is  more  noble  to  choose? 

It  was  just  yesterday  that  we  were  sit- 
ting, listening  to  our  orientation  advisors 
speak  about  the  great  rewards  we  would 
reap  when  four,  five,  maybe  six  years  into 
the  future. 

Now  that  graduation  is  upon  us,  we 
realize  one  degree  may  not  be  enough. 
With  today's  economy  and  the  ever 
worsening  recession,  even  if  we  were 
qualified  for  a  job,  we  wouldn't  be  able  to 
find  one.  What  to  do,  what  to  do? 

GO  TO  GRAD  SCHOOL!!! 

O.K.,  if  were  only  that  simple.  First,  one 
must  take  the  GRE,  LSAT,  MOAT,  or  GMAT. 
But  taking  the  test  is  one  thing,  doing  well 
is  another.  Months  of  work  goes  into  the 
preparation  for  these  tests.  We  go  to  a 
prep  class  and  spend  hundreds  of  dollars 
and  hours  having  someone  teach  us  the 
things  we  should  remember  from  high 
school  and  college. 

More  importantly  we  are  forced  to  do 
well  because  of  the  time,  money,  and  ef- 
fort spent  in  taking  these  classes. 

The  next  step  is  getting  letters  of 
recommendation.  We  play  phone  and 
hall  tog  with  our  past  and  present  pro- 


fessors trying  to  cause  them  to 
remember  us  and  recommend  us  highly. 
Then  what  happens?  They  turn  it  around 
and  tell  us  to  write  a  mock  letter  sum- 
marizing our  achievements.  The  pro- 
fessors wont  us  to  remind  them  what  we 
did  in  class.  To  lie  or  not  to  lie... 

Then  we  hove  to  face  the  admission 
boards  and  deal  with  application 
deadlines.  We  can  scream  as  loud  as  we 
like,  but  most  schools  could  not  care  less 
about  professors  on  leave,  GRE  test 
dates,  and  transcript  changes.  If  our 
complete,  unabridged,  undivided  ap- 
plications don't  reach  their  desks  by  the 
superimposed  deadlines,  forget  it! 

Sometimes  a  miracle  happens  and  we 
ore  able  to  juggle  classes,  finals  and  ap- 
plication deadlines  and  we  do  get  in. 

Sometimes  "things"  happen.  We  may 
have  to  break  the  news  to  our  parents 
and  tell  them  that  we  weren't  accepted 
into  a  graduate  program,  anywhere. 
Much  worse,  we  may  have  to  tell  them 
that  until  we  land  that  job  at  the  super- 
market, we  will  be  moving  bock  home 
and  be  needing  their  support  again.  Or 
we  may  choose  to  take  a  course  or  two 
again  and  revamp  our  career  dreams. 
No  matter  what  happens,  we  do  end  up 
facing  that  much  dreaded  "real  world" 
but  unlike  Hamlet,  we  will  survive.

After  15  years  of  family  life,  Karen  Kaut- 
sky  decided  to  attend  college  for  the  first 
time  in  her  life.  Kautsky  started  a  family 
right  out  of  high  school,  but  when  the 
oldest  of  her  three  sons  hod  graduated 
from  college,  she  decided  that  it  was  her 
turn  to  continue  her  education.  "Initially,  I 
was  embarrassed  about  going  to  col- 
lege, but  it  hod  been  a  personal  goal  for 
about  25  years," 

The  college  experience  helped  to  build 
upon  Kautsky's  self-esteem.  "It  mode  me 
feel  capable  and  empowered.  This  was 
important  to  me  because  in  our  society, 
housewives  are  often  unappreciated 
and  taken  for  granted,"  she  said, 

Kautsky's  college  career  began,  when 
she  started  taking  classes  at  Lord  Fairfax 
Community  College,  She  then  transferred 
to  Montgomery  College  and  graduated 
with  a  3.853  grade  point  overage.  Kaut- 
sky started  attending  UMCP  in  the  Spring 
of  1990. 

Once  here,  Kautsky  created  on  In- 
dividual Studies  major  in  Women's  Studies, 
under  the  direction  fo  Dr.  Earleen  McCor- 
rick.  Associate  Professor  of  Government 
and  Politics.  The  theme  of  Kautsky's  major 
was  the  "Present  State  of  the  Economy 


/IAT1C3NAL  WOMEI/S 
STUDES  ASSOOATI 


/ 


and  Women's  Issues." 

Kautsky  attributes  her  successful  col- 
lege career  to  the  Individual  Studies 
department.  The  support  and  compa- 
nionship of  faculty  enhanced  her  educa- 
tion and  experience,  "The  department 
wasn't  the  typical,  cold  setting,  but  was 
open  to  discussion  and  self-expression. 
Since  there  ore  few  Individual  Studies  ma- 
jors, students  had  the  feeling  of  a  small 
school  but  the  advantages  of  a  large 
university,"  she  said. 

Kautsky  has  been  chosen  to  be  the  stu- 
dent speaker  for  the  General  and  In- 
dividual Studies  Commencement  exer- 
cises. She  then  plans  to  pursue  a 
graduate  program  in  counseling  or 
history.  She  would  like  to  either  counsel 
women  or  teach  history  from  a  feminist 
viewpoint.  Kautsky  has  very  strong  feel- 
ings about  the  women's  movement  and 
believes  that  women  must  "recognize 
their  differences  and  learn  to  work  with 
each  other." 

Kautsky  has  managed  to  achieve  an 
outstanding  academic  record  while 
managing  a  busy  household,  and  is  a 
wonderful  role  model  for  any  returning 
women  students.

Whether  they  liked  it  or  not,  the 
graduating  class  of  1992  was  forced  to 
bow  to  the  constraints  of  a  thining  job 
market.  Thanks  to  a  notional  economy 
with  all  the  pep  of  a  two-toed  sloth,  some 
of  Maryland's  fonts  of  talent  temporarily 
capped  their  dream  careers  to  make 
their  parting  with  College  Park  as 
lucrative  and  productive  as  possible. 

In  the  true  spirit  of  Terrapin  Power;! 
however,  all  was  not  lost.  Graduates 
learned  quickly  to  deal  with  the  present 
and  make  the  most  of  a  society 
dampened  by  the  recessionary  blues. 

hasn't  really  bothered  me,"  sale 
Land  Wu,  22,  of  the  economic  slump.  " 
was  flexible." 

Flexibility  was  the  key  to  finding  post- 
graduation  employment.  Wu,  a  double 
major  in  transportation  and  accounting 
accepted  a  job  with  a  mortgage  bank- 
ing firm  in  January  because  no  position; 
could  be  found  in  the  field  of  transporta- 
tion, he  said.  "I  didn't  have  one  particulai 
job  in  mind.  I  thought  transportation  wa; 
interesting,.  .  .  (but)  my  job  now  has  ab- 
solutely  nothing  to  do  witt 
transportation." 

Optimism  may  have  been  a  saintl'i 
quality  for  many  grods,  but  Wu  did  not  le 
the  future  get  him  down.  "Psychological 
ly,  a  lot  of  people  think  the  economy  i: 
really  bod,"  he  said.  "But  there  are  plenh 
of  jobs  out  there.  You  can't  be  picky.  Job._ 
hould  be  opening  up  pretty  soon."

It  is  the  day  before  thie  calculus 
homework  is  due,  and  like  many  other 
students,  senior  Grady  Wilson  Miller  hurries 
to  finish  the  assignment.  In  this  case,  there 
is  one  exception.  Miller  is  not  enrolled  m 
the  class,  he  is  helping  teach  it. 

This  past  year.  Miller  was  one  of  two 
undergraduate  mathematics  majors  who 
worked  as  a  teaching  assistant  for 
Calculus  140  and  141.  "It  felt  weird  to  be 
on  the  other  side  of  the  student-teacher 
relationship,"  Miller  said. 

Teaching  made  Miller  more  ap- 
preciative of  what  his  own  teachers  do.  "I 
used  to  think  that  if  I  ever  taught.  I  would 
be  real  methodical,  and  not  get  chalk  all 
over  me."  said  Miller.  "But  it's  not  that 
easy." 

Miller  entered  the  University  of 
Maryland  in  the  Fall  of  1988  on  a  full 
scholarship  as  an  engineering  major.  His 
first  year  here,  he  found  himself  enjoying 
his  moth  classes  so  much  that  he  decid- 
ed to  double  major  in  math  and 
engineering. 

By  his  junior  year.  Miller  decided  that 
the  math  interested  him  more  than  the 
engineering,  and  he  chose  to  major  only 
in  math. 

People  urged  Miller  to  stick  with 
engineering,  telling  him  that  "if  you're 
good  at  it,  you  should  do  it  because  you 
can  make  a  lot  of  money.'  Knowing  that 
he  would  not  be  happy  as  an  engineer, 
Miller  decided  to  follow  his  heart  and 
concentrate  on  math. 

"You  have  to  do  things  because  you 
want  to.  not  because  others  want  you 
to."  Miller  explained. 

Despite  his  rigorous  academic 
schedule.  Miller  mode  time  for  extracur- 
ricular activities.  Since  his  freshman  year. 
Miller  has  sung  in  the  Generics,  the  univer- 
sity's acappello  group.  Additionally,  this 
past  summer,  he  traveled  to  Australia 
where  he  studied  ecology. 

After  graduation  in  May.  Miller  plans  to 
travel  more,  taking  a  six  to  eight  month 
trip  around  the  world.  When  he  returns 
from  his  trip.  Miller  plans  to  attend 
graduate  school  in  either  math  or  physics. 
Eventually.  Miller  would  like  to  be  a  pro- 
fessor, and  his  teaching  experience  here 
has  reaffirmed  this  desire. 

Says  Miller.  "Teaching  is  a  challenge. 
but  it  is  very  rewarding.  It  requires  a  great 
deal  of  preparation  and  time,  but  it's 
worth  it,"

Conquering  that  first  major  job  inter- 
view con  be  as  challenging  as  the  job 
itself.  At  some  point  in  our  lives,  we've  all 
encountered  situations  where  presenta- 
tion is  everything  -  a  first  date,  the  prom, 
dinner  with  your  fiancee's  parents.  .  .  the 
list  is  endless.  But  when  sitting  across  the 
table  from  a  potential  boss,  it  takes  more 
than  a  fancy  tie  or  a  new  silk  dress  to  im- 
press and  convince  that  person  that  you 
con  do  the  job  right. 

Consider  the  experience  of  one 
Maryland  graduate.  Steve  Kimbleton,  a 
business  and  decisions  information 
systems  major,  was  hired  by  a  consulting 
firm  during  his  senior  year.  He  said  that 
while  interviewing  for  this  position,  he  was 
surprised  to  discover  that  the  interviewer 
was  very  informative  about  what  the 
company  was  all  about, 

"On  my  first  interview,  I  did  all  the  talk- 
ing," Kimbleton  said.  "But  on  my  second 
office  visit,  they  gave  me  a  good  feeling 
about  my  responses."  Kimbleton  said  the 
interviewer  offered  him  tips  on  how  to 
move  up  in  the  company  ladder,  and 
commented  thoughtfully  on  his 
responses.  "Getting  feedback  lets  you 
know  how  you're  doing,"  he  said. 

Interviewing  is  a  two-way  process. 
Kimbleton  said  some  of  the  common 
questions  asked  by  interviewers  deal  with 
extracurricular  activities  and  other 
groups  one  was  involved  with  in  school, 
leadership  roles  and  responsiblity,  but 
that  few  dwell  on  academics.  He  observ- 
ed than  on-compus  recruiters  use  grades 
as  a  detrerminant  for  selection  of  inter- 
view candidates,  but  in  the  actual  inter- 
view employers  look  for  more  intangible 
qualities. 

"They  basically  want  to  see  how  well 
you  communicate,"  Kimbleton  noted.

Academics 


"A  Mark  of  Excellence"  was  the  perfect 
phrase  to  describe  the  academic  division 
of  the  University  of  Maryland  over  the 
past  year. 

In  spite  of  massive  budget  cuts,  and  the 
phasing  out  of  academic  programs. 
University  of  Maryland  continued  to 
uphold  its  high  academic  standards. 

College  Park  raised  admission  stan- 
dards in  order  to  reduce  its 
undergraduate  enrollment  and  to  im- 
prove the  faculty-student  ratio.  The  ob- 
jective was  to  obtain  the  very  best 
students  possible. 

Along  with  these  changes,  UMCP  of- 
fered over  lOO  courses  of  study  for  those 
students  that  were  academically 
motivated.  With  12  different  colleges  and 
schools,  majors  ranged  from  accounting 
to  zoology  and  from  chemical  engineer- 
ing to  Russian  area  studies. 

This  academic  diversity  helped  in- 
crease the  status  of  the  University  of 
Maryland  throughout  the  nation.  Such 
diversity  proved  to  another  "Mark  of 
Distinction"  which  made  UMCP  stand 
proudly  above  the  rest.

When  you  think  of  the  College  of 
Agriculture,  soil,  crops,  and  forms  come  to 
mind.  But  this  stereotype  is  slowly  fading. 

"Many  students  are  now  majoring  in 
areas  such  as  environmental  science, 
natural  resource  management,  and 
agricultural  business,"  said  Dr.  William 
Clark.  Associate  Dean  of  Agriculture, 
"There  is  a  big  market  for  graduates  in 
these  majors  and  students  are  realizing 
this,"  said  Clark. 

The  college  is  very  proud  of  its  land- 
scape agriculture  program.  According  to 
Clark  there  are  only  six  landscape 
agriculture  Ph.d's  offered  in  the  United 
States.  "Maryland  has  three  of  them," 
ooasted  Clark. 

The  college  con  also  boast  of  a  third 
:;omputer  facility  being  built  and  the  ad- 
dition of  a  new  wing  to  the  animal 
science  building.  "We  are  also  starting 
construction  on  a  plant  science  building 
A/hich  will  be  finished  in  1993."  said  Clark, 
rhis  building  will  have  spectacular 
teaching  facilities  and  computers." 

The  college  is  highly  praised  for  its 
agricultural  business  school.  "It's  a  good 


alternative  for  people  who  can't  get  into 
the  business  school,"  said  Avadesh  Gulati, 
a  senior  agriculture  business  major.  "You 
don't  just  learn  about  form  manage- 
ment." said  Jeff  Severe,  a  junior 
agriculture  business  major.  "Most  of  the 
people  in  my  classes,  including  myself, 
have  never  even  been  on  a  form." 

In  the  last  five  years  the  number  of 
students  enrolled  in  the  college  has 
doubled.  "Agriculture  is  changing  and  o 
big  reason  is  due  to  the  decrease  in  the 
number  of  forms,"  remarks  Bean.  Because 
of  the  costs,  it  is  almost  impossible  for  a 
person  just  out  of  college  to  start  their 
own  farm.  "Students  ore  realizing  this  and 
focusing  not  so  much  on  the  production 
areas  of  agriculture  such  as  farming,  but 
on  research  and  development,"  said 
Clark.  "There  are  lots  of  opportunities  out 
there  and  students  hove  no  problem  fin- 
ding jobs  in  these  areas,"  said  Bean. 

In  the  next  ten  years.  Dr.  Clark  would 
like  to  see  the  college  grow,  but  maintain 
a  personal  touch.  "All  of  the  students 
know  each  other  and  we  have  a  sense  of 
community  that  I'd  like  to  maintain."

School  of  Architecture  Designs  on  the  Future 


Physics,  mathematics,  and  the  visual 
arts...  what  program  demands  talent  in  all 
three  of  these  challenging  subjects?  The 
School  of  Architecture! 

Upon  entering  the  architecture  bulding, 
one  is  bombarded  with  the  signs  of  ar- 
tistic endeavors  and  hard  work.  The 
center  of  this  maze-like  structure  is 
dominated  by  the  studio,  a  huge 
workshop  area  where  the  students  spend 
hours  perfecting  their  creations.  The  walls 
surrounding  the  studio  are  adorned  with 
drawings.  Offices  invariably  contain  scale 
models. 

The  school  offers  not  only  a  Bachelor  of 
Science  program,  but  also  programs 
leading  to  two  professional  degrees  or  a 
historic  preservation  certificate.  Most 
students  take  advantage  of  a  variety  of 
special  study  programs.  Restoration  work 
at  the  Chalfonte  Hotel  in  New  Jersey  and 
Kiplin  Hall  in  England  beckon  those  who 
admire  past  works.  Other  students  elect 
to  spend  a  summer  studying  in  Paris, 
Rome,  or  Turkey.  Some  future  architects 
participate  in  archeological  explorations 
in  Tunisia,  Sri  Lanka,  or  even  Israel,  at  the 
harbor  of  Herod  the  Great. 

Architecture  students  benefit  from 
other  resorces  as  well.  They  have  their 


own  library  at  the  University,  the  Notional 
Trust  for  Historic  Preservation  Library.  The 
School  of  Architecture  also  sponsors  a 
lecture  series  featuring  a  number  of  ac- 
complished architects,  professors,  and 
authors.  Speakers  include  Michael  Dennis, 
a  well-known,  practicing  architect  and 
Walter  Denny,  a  professor  specializing  in 
Ottoman  houses  and  Turkish  traditions. 

But  perhaps  the  most  frequently  used 
resources  ore  the  chairs  and  couches  in 
the  building.  "There  are  all-nighters 
before  the  projects  are  due.  You  can  see 
people  laying  out  on  the  couches,"  said 
graduate  student  Teri  Schoppet.  Joseph 
Boquiren,  also  a  graduate  student 
agrees,  "People  sack  out-it's  hard  work. 
We  spend  most  of  our  lives  here  during 
the  semester."  The  hard  work  is  worth  it, 
though.  Joseph  Boquiren  adds,  "I  like  the 
faculty  and  people.  You're  supposed  to 
associate  with  your  classmates  and 
develop  a  free  exhchange  of  ideas,"  as 
opposed  to  programs  that  focus  on  the 
individualistic  approach  to  learning.  "It's 
like  a  family.  You  know  everyone  in  the 
studio,"  said  Teri  Schoppet,  describing  the 
atmosphere  in  the  School  of 
Architecture.

College  of  Arts  and  Humanities  Stresses  Diversity 


Literature...  languages...  history... 
philosphiy...  communication...  dance... 
thieatre...  If  these  subjects  interest  you, 
then  chances  are,  you  are  a  member  of 
the  College  of  Arts  and  Humanities.  With 
majors  in  more  than  two  dozen  subjects, 
the  College  of  Arts  and  Humanities 
prepares  College  Park  students  for  a 
variety  of  disciplines. 

Arts  and  Humanities  students  benefit 
from  life  in  the  heart  of  campus. 
Language  students  often  bask  in  the  sun 
in  front  of  Jiminez  Hall.  Just  across  the 
mall,  history  and  English  majors  lounge  in 
the  courtyard  between  Francis  Scott  Key 
and  Taliaferro  Hall.  Around  the  corner  the 
Art  and  Dance  buildings  house  their  own 
theatre  and  art  gallery.  In  the  center  of  it 
all,  Francis  Scott  Key  is  the  home  of  the 
Arts  and  Humanities  office  and  of  liberal 
arts  education  at  College  Park.  A  huge 
mural  appears  just  within  the  entrance 
and  sets  the  mood  for  the  College. 
Vibrant  colors  paint  a  scene  from 
Pompeii,  in  honor  of  former  history 
teacher  Wilhelmina  Jashemski.  Im- 
mediately to  the  left  and  right  are  two 
quotes  that  embody  the  philsophy  of  the 
College:  'life  is  short,  but  art  is  long,"  from 
Seneca  and  Hippocrates,  and,  "There  is 
no  possession  more  valuable  than 
knowledge,"  said  Meander.  The  murals  in- 
troduce visitors  and  students  alike  to  the 
humanities  tradition.  Although  the  Col- 


lege no  longer  stresses  Greek  and  Latin 
studies,  it  has  retained  the  desire  to  "try 
to  help  people  become  better  thinkers 
and  better  expressers  of  their  thoughts," 
said  Frank  Debernardo,  Assistant  Director 
of  the  Writing  Center. 

In  the  process  of  pursuing  this  goal,  the 
College  of  Arts  and  Humanities  has  form- 
ed a  rigorous  course  of  study  sup- 
plemented by  lecture  series,  dance  per- 
formances, and  readings  by  interna- 
tionally known  poets  and  fiction  writers. 
Miroslov  Hollub,  Molly  Tinsley,  and  Jeffrey 
Harrison  were  the  writers  featured  this  fall. 
The  college  is  also  presenting  several 
theatrical  productions  this  fall,  including 
"Bring  Back  Broadway"  and  "A  Midsum- 
mer Night's  Dream." 

The  dance  department  benefits  from 
the  presence  of  Improvisations  Unlimited, 
a  dance  group  partly  sponsored  by  the 
College.  Director  Meriam  Rosen  praises 
the  very  active  students  and  faculty  here, 
"The  students  are  a  small,  tightly  knit 
group  and  are  very  involved  in  all  of  the 
activities  here  in  the  department.  They  in- 
itiate a  lot  of  activities,"  she  said.  Current- 
ly underway  is  a  project  to  bring  a  move- 
ment workshop  to  special  education 
children  in  the  area,  in  which  dancers  will 
try  "to  see  if  we  con  reach  these  children 
in  a  way  they  can't  usually  com- 
municate," according  to  Rosen.

Diversity 


Arts  and  Humanities  students  are  also 
active  in  a  variety  of  academic  associa- 
tions, such  as  the  History  Undergraduate 
Association,  the  Sigma  Tau  Delta  Honor 
Society,  and  numerous  foreign  language 
clubs.  The  College  also  supports  the 
Undergraduate  Writing  Center,  where 
retired  and  undergraduate  tutors  help 
students  with  their  papers. 

The  Arts  and  Humanities  academic 
challenge  extends  to  classes  in  the  in- 
dividual majors  as  well.  One  of  the  best 
loved  professors  in  the  English  depart- 
ment is  Dr.  Michael  Olmert.  Senior  Tracy 
Bull  finds  Dr.  Olmert's  class  a  pleasant 
challenge.  "He  makes  you  work...he 
makes  you  go  out  and  do  it  on  your  own," 
she  said.  "He  helped  me  pick  away  at  the 
mental  boundaries  I  had  created  with 
Shakespearean  literature,"  Senior  Lisa 
Norman  said.  Another  fan  is  Katie  Komer, 
a  senior  doing  an  independent  study  with 
Dr.  Olmert.  She  values  the  fact  that,  "He 
doesn't  intimidate  you  at  all.  I  think  he 
teaches  because  he  loves  to  teach.  But 
he  does  so  much  other  stuff  besides  just 
teaching." 

Another  favorite  in  the  College  of  Arts 
and  Humanities  is  Professor  Paternoster, 
who  teaches  criminology.  Tracy  Bull,  a 
student  in  his  class  on  juvenile  delinquen- 
cy, described  him  as,  "very  wired.  He 
reminds  you  of  Howie  Mandell.  But,  he's  a 
really  good  teacher."  Not  all  great 
teachers  ore  full  professors.  Many  lower- 
level  classes  are  taught  by  graduate 
students,  who  bring  new  enthusiasm  to 
the  curriculum. 

Special  projects,  productions,  and  ser- 
vices...enthusiastic  students  and  faculty... 
challenging,  creative  endeavors...  diversi- 
ty... These  are  just  a  few  of  the  elements

fhe  College  of  Behavioral  and  Social 
iences  (BSOS)  is  mode  up  of  a  diverse 
oup  of  majors  that  range  from  scientific 

philosophical  disciplines.  v*/hile  em- 
losizing  a  liberal  arts  background.  Fields 

study  in  BSOS  include  afro-American 
jdies,  anthropology,  economics, 
(ography.  government  and  politics, 
jaring  and  speech  sciences, 
ychology.  sociology,  urban  studies,  and 
minal  justice. 

rhe  College,  located  in  Tydings  Hall,  is 
j  by  the  new  Dean  Irwin  L.  Goldstein, 
mer  Chairperson  of  the  Psychology 
sportment.  The  College  also  operates  a 
•mputer  facility  of  ISO  stations  for 
idents  and  classes  in  Lefrak  Hall. 
Vithin  the  College,  are  the  Bureau  of 
jiness  and  Economic  Research  and  the 
■vey  Research  Center  are  both  study 
rious  public,  finance,  environmental. 
d  economic  issues.  They  give 
dergraduate  and  graduate  students 
5  chance  to  be  a  part  of  contem- 
rary  research  and  data  collecting, 
neficial  for  their  future  employment 
d  education. 
he  Center  for  Global  Change  and  the 


Center  for  International  Development 
and  Conflict  Management  encourage 
cooperation  between  individuals, 
governments  and  industry  to  make 
positive  changes  in  the  environment  and 
peaceful  international  relations.  "The 
Center  for  Global  Change  works  on 
specific  issues  such  as  ozone  depletion, 
global  climate  change,  and  sea  level  ris- 
ing." said  sophomore.  Spanish  major 
Maria  Johnson,  who  works  at  the  Center. 
Probably  the  most  ambitious  and  im- 
portant program  at  the  College  is  the 
ICONS  project.  Through  this  computer- 
based  simulation  with  other  universities 
around  the  globe,  students  deal  with  in- 
ternational problems  by  assuming  the 
roles  of  foreign  policy  makers.  This  ex- 
change of  ideas  also  allows  students  of 
foreign  languages  to  practice  their  skills 
through  time  computer-conferencing,  "It 
gives  students  a  chance  to  actually  be  a 
negotiator  -  a  James  baker,  a  Henry 
Kissenger..."  said  senior,  government  and 
politics  major  Don  Navarro,  who  is  part  of 
a  US,  team  working  on  the  global 
environment.

Most  business  students  have  a  certain 
determination.  A  passion.  A  desire  to 
achieve  what  most  Americans  can  only 
dream  of...money.  Lots  of  it.  As  one  walks 
through  Tydings  Hall,  these  students  may 
not  look  like  the  moguls  of  Lifestyles  of  the 
Rich  and  Famous.  But  hopefully,  someday, 
after  much  hard  work,  their  sleepless 
nights  will  pay  off. 

As  a  result  of  a  booming  '80s  economy 
and  a  top  25  ranked  school,  the  College 
of  Business  and  Management  has  con- 
tinuously raised  its  GPA  requirements, 
from  2.8  to  a  3.0  and  up,  frustrating  many 
borderline  students.  However,  because  of 
the  budget  crunch  and  smaller  numbers 
admitted  to  the  University,  the  GPA  re- 
quirement plunged  to  a  2.7  in  order  to  ad- 
mit enough  students  to  fulfill  accredita- 
tion requirements. 

The  College  of  Business  Management 
offers  numerous  degrees  including  ac- 
counting, finance,  general  business  and 
management,  management  science- 
statistics,  marketing,  production,  and  per- 
sonnel and  labor  relations. 

One  of  the  most  popular  classes  within 
the  college  has  been  Dr.  Nickels'  BMGT 


350,  Marketing  Principles  and  Organize 
tion.  Students  often  attended  this  cla 
not  just  to  learn  the  "four  p's,"  but  to  hec 
Dr.  Nickels'  zany  remarks  about  life  or 
accounting  majors.  Nickels  als 
dedicated  large  amounts  of  class  time  1 
telling  students  about  "being  happy."  h 
one  piece  of  advice  was  to  "alwo" 
make  time  to  do  the  things  you  want  1 
do,  and  stick  to  that  schedule  or  plan." 

The  College  of  Business  and  Manag< 
ment  also  offers  a  distinctive  internation 
business  and  foriegn  language  studie 
(IBEL)  major.  Students  had  the  option 
learn  business  skills  from  an  internation 
perspective  and  combine  th 
knowledge  with  such  languages  c 
Chinese,  French,  German,  Japanese,  Ru 
sian,  and  Spanish. 

So,  with  all  these  opportuniti* 
available  in  the  real  world.  Business  ar 
Management  majors  can  look  bock  ar 
say  good  bye  to  30  pound  business  la 
textbooks,  living  on  vending  machin( 
between  classes,  and  8:00  a.m.  occou 
ting  classes.  But,  remember  to  keep  thi 
business-like  edge,  and  question  wheth, 
"greed  is  good."

The  College  of  Computer,  Moth  and 
Physical  Sciences  has  often  been  refer- 
red to  as  a  technical  institute  within  a 
large  university.  Students  nnajoring  in  any 
of  the  fields  such  as  computer  science, 
geology,  mathematics,  astronomy, 
physics,  or  physical  sciences  all  hove  ex- 
cellent opportunities  to  get  an  outstan- 
ding education. 

The  College  of  Computer,  Moth  and 
Physical  Sciences  is  committed  to  open- 
ing its  doors  to  everyone,  regardless  of 
their  background.  In  addition  the  previous 
scarcity  of  women  in  the  program  is  now 
being  rectified  with  the  availability  of 
many  career  opportunities  and  scholar- 
ships for  women  and  minorities  in  the 
fields  represented  by  the  College. 

For  majors,  many  departments  offer 
paid  or  unpaid  research  opportunitites. 
For  example,  honor  students  are  en- 
couraged to  undertake  research  under 
the  guidance  of  a  faculty  member.  Other 
students  are  paid  student  helpers  or  are 
involved  in  other  forms  of  research 
participation. 

Many  of  the  faculty  are  also  engaged 
in  leading  edge  research  as  well.  One  of 
the  most  recent  and  exciting  faculty 
achievements  is  that  of  Professor  William 
Pugh,  who  won  the  prestigious  David  and 
Lucille  Packard  Fellowship  for  Science 
and  Engineering.  In  1991  Pugh,  who  also 
became  the  eighth  faculty  member  from 
the  computer  science  department  to 
receive  a  Notional  Science  Foundation 
Presidential  Young  Investigator  Award, 
was  one  of  97  nationwide  applicants  for 
the  Packard  Fellowship. 

For  the  Computer  Science  Depart- 
ment, such  a  strong  faculty  exists.  Senior, 
computer  science  major.  Kirk  Dunsavage 
said,  "One  of  the  most  outstanding  things 
about  the  departnri^;nt  is  that  professors 
will  sit  and  talk  with  you  when  you  need 
help.  They  are  very  good  at  what  they  do 
in  their  fields."

The  College  of  Education  is  out  to 
moke  o  better  future  for  tomorrow's 
students.  With  seven  departments,  three 
of  which  offer  undergraduate  degrees, 
the  teachers  of  the  future  show  definite 
promise. 

The  undergraduate  programs  are  the 
Department  of  Curriculum  and  Instruc- 
tion; the  Department  of  Industrial, 
Technological,  and  Occupational  Educa- 
tion; and  the  Department  of  Special 
Education. 

Admission  Is  extremely  selective.  Ap- 
plicants must  have  a  GPA  of  2.5  or  higher, 
perform  well  on  the  Level  20  California 
Achievement  Test,  and  must  complete 
basic  courses.  For  this  reason,  those  who 
hove  been  admitted  to  these  majors  are 
usually  sophomores  or  juniors,  ready  to 
become  teachers  of  tomorrow. 

Sophomore  Artemis  Kapsllls  said  she 
was  looking  forward  to  enrolling  in  the 
Department  of  Curriculum  and  Instruc- 
tion. She  plans  to  concentrate  In  Elemen- 
tary Education,  especially  after  EDCI  280, 
where  she  was  able  to  go  to  a  local 
elementary  school  to  work  with  children 
six  hours  a  week. 

Student  teaching  is  what  almost  every 
major  of  Secondary,  Elementary,  and  Ear- 


ly Childhood  Education  looks  forward  to. 
After  completing  the  required  courses,  in- 
cluding a  human  development  class 
where  they  observe  children,  seniors 
spend  their  last  semster  as  a  student 
teacher.  Most  students  agree  that  going 
out  into  the  field  Is  where  they  have  the 
opportunity  to  learn  the  most  and  to 
prepare  for  their  careers. 

Assistant  Dean  Jeanette  Kreiser  said, 
"We  try  to  work  with  the  schools  as  much 
as  possible."  If  students  have  not  reached 
their  senior  year,  but  still  want  to  par- 
ticipate In  other  schools,  they  can 
volunteer  in  the  "Adopt  a  School"  pro- 
gram. They  can  spend  time  tutoring  or  In- 
teracting with  children  in  other  ways,  not 
only  to  gain  experience,  but  to  grow  as 
people. 

Junior,  Early  Childhood  Education  major 
Lara  O'Brien  said,  "Maryland  is  really  good 
with  giving  us  a  lot  of  practical  ex- 
perience, so  we  can  put  into  practice 
what  we  learn  in  the  classroom." 

Another  concentration  within  the  Col- 
lege Is  Special  Education.  Here,  students 
become  prepared  to  teach  those  with 
disabilities  through  a  five  year  program, 
where  they  may  obtain  both  a  bachelor's 
and  a  master's  degree.

students  to  teacti  in  a  specific  field,  such 
as  business  or  home  economics. 

The  College  of  Education  does  not  just 
provide  for  it's  students  academically. 
Their  staff's  devotion  to  the  field  and  the 
College's  numerous  organizations  pro- 
vide Education  majors  with  the  support 
and  stimualtion  they  need  to  succeed. 
Many  students  ore  active  in  the  Society 
for  Teacher  Issues  and  Minority  Education 
(TIME)  and  the  Undergraduate  Teachers 
Education  Association  (UTEA)  has 
become  even  more  popular. 

The  College  of  Education  also  has  an 
honor  society.  Kappa  Delta  Pi  as  well  as 
an  honors  program,  separate  from  the 
University.  Students  must  apply  to  both 
the  Honors  Program  and  Kappa  Delta  Pi. 

The  purpose  of  the  Honors  Program  is  to 
offer  the  opportunity  to  expand  students' 
teacher  preparation  by  going  beyond 
the  regular  requirements  with  group 
studies,  seminars,  and  individual  studies 
including  honors  theses  and  projects. 

The  dedication  of  the  staff  members  in 
the  College  of  Education  also  helps 
make  it  successful.  Senior  Krissi  Knowles 
said,  "You  can  tell  that  a  lot  of  the  pro- 
fessors really  care  about  their  students 
and  about  future  teachers."  This  support 
motivates  Education  majors  to  excel  and 
achieve. 

The  College  of  Education  works  hard  to 
train  teachers  to  be  supportive  and  skill- 
ed in  the  fields  of  education,  highly 
capable  of  handling  the  students  and 
methods  of  tomorrow.

•"-■■  O.  .^^ 


Many  students  come  to  thie  University 
of  Maryland  for  its  superior  national 
reputation  in  the  engineering  sciences. 
W  i  t  hi  approximately  3,000 
undergraduate  students,  thie  College  of 
Engineering  is  one  of  Maryland's  largest 
and  most  renowned  departments. 

The  Aerospace  Engineering  program, 
ranked  seventh  in  the  nation,  is  con- 
sidered by  many  students  to  be  a 
demanding  program,  "Engineering  is  the 
most  challenging  major,  but  if  you  can 
stand  up  to  the  challenge,  then  it's  also 
the  most  rewarding  major,"  explains 
Senior  Electrical  Engineering  major  Don 
Steinberg. 

Engineering  facilities  at  Maryland  are  a 
center  for  leading-edge  research  and  for 
undergraduate  involvement.  The  Systems 
Research  Center  (SRC),  in  the  A.V. 
Williams  Building,  offers  advanced 
research  opportunities  to  participating 
engineering  students.  The  Glen  L.  Martin 
Wind  Tunnel  is  used  by  aerospace 
engineers  to  research  and  test  their 
designs.  When  the  new  Space  Systems 
Laboratory  opens  in  the  summer  of  1992, 
it  will  house  a  neutral  buoyancy  tank, 
capable  of  simulating  weightlessness  in 


space. 

The  College's  excellent  teaching 
reputation  was  recognized  again  this 
year.  Marilyn  Berman,  associate  dean  of 
the  College  of  Engirieering,  was  awarded 
the  title  of  "1991  Outstanding  Woman  of 
the  Year"  by  the  President's  Commission 
on  Women's  Affairs  in  a  ceremony 
September  24th,  in  Marie  Mount  Hall.  Ber- 
man was  presented  the  award  for  her  in- 
volvement in  reforms  to  increase  female 
and  minortiy  enrollment  in  engineering. 

There  are  several  alternative  programs 
and  special  opportunities  for  engineering 
majors.  Junior  engineering  students  have 
the  opportunity  to  enter  the  College's 
Cooperative  Program.  They  alternate 
study  and  internships,  thereby  stretching 
their  remaining  course  work  to  three 
years.  Students  may  also  choose  a  dual 
degree  program  with  the  Department  of 
German  and  Slavic  Languages  that  in- 
cludes a  two  month  language  study  and 
a  four  to  six  month  internship  in  the  Ger- 
man industry.  A  similar  program  exists  for 
students  to  study  Japanese  during  their 
summers  to  facilitate  future  research  with 
Japan.

The  College  of  Health  and  Human  Per- 
formance, formerly  the  College  of 
Physical  Education,  Recreation  and 
Health,  offers  programs  of  study  including 
Health  Education,  Recreation,  and 
Physical  Education. 

There  are  four  separate  buildings  that 
provide  classroom  and  lab  space  for  the 
college.  They  include  North  Gym,  Cole 
Field  House,  Reckord  Armory,  and 
'^■^inkert  Field  House. 

The  College  also  offers  several  pro- 
grams to  students  that  combine 
research,  service,  and  instruction  in  addi- 
tion to  depending  heavily  on  student  sup- 
port and  interaction.  Such  programs  in- 
clude the  children's  Health  and 
Developmental  Program  and  the  Sports 
Medicine  and  Physical  Fitness  Center. 

One  of  the  most  popular  course  on 
campus  is  held  within  this  college:  Health 
377  -  Human  Sexuality.  Taught  by  Dr.  Robin 
Sawyer,  the  course  takes  a  straight  for- 


ward look  at  all  aspects  concerning 
human  sexuality. 

Dr.  Sawyer's  laid  back,  easy  going  man- 
ner was  a  hit  with  almost  all  of  his 
students.  "He  is  really  down  to  earth  and 
funny.  You  can  discuss  anything  in  his 
class  and  he  makes  it  easier  to  discuss 
uncomfortable  topics,"  said  Kotrina 
Walker,  a  finance  major. 

Sawyers  unorthodox  presentations  and 
demonstrations  were  also  enjoyed  by  his 
students.  "One  day  we  watched  a  film  on 
date  rape  and  then  had  a  debate.  It  was 
the  guys  against  the  girls  and  we 
debated  dating  expectations.  I  was  a 
good  way  for  us  to  find  out  what  the  op- 
posite sex  thought  about  the  subject.  It 
really  opened  some  eyes,"  stated  Krissy 
Edell,  on  undecided  major. 

So,  if  you  ever  find  yourself  on  the  north 
side  of  campus  with  some  spare  time, 
find  out  what  the  College  of  Health  and 
Human  Performance  is  all  about. 


College  of  Human  Ecology 


Apparel  Bedding   Consunner 


The  College  of  Human  Ecology  is  not 
your  basic  business  or  engineering  school. 
Instead,  students  learn  about  the  prac- 
tical and  human  side  of  life.  A  side  of  life 
that  many  people  take  for  granted. 

For  example,  the  College  offers  majors 
in  community  nutrition,  dietetics,  nutrition, 
or  institution  administration  (food  ser- 
vices), experimental  foods,  family 
sciences,  apparel  design,  textile 
marketing,  fashion  merchandsing,  textile 
science,  or  consumer  economics. 

Ecology  means  to  study  the  science  of 
the  relationships  between  organisms  and 
their  environments.  The  College  of 
Human  Ecology  achieves  this  goal  by 
devoting  classes  to  describing,  explain- 
ing, and  improving  the  quality  of  life  and 
by  encouraging  students  to  become  in- 
volved in  research,  education,  communi- 
ty outreach,  and  public  service. 


The  curriculum  emphasizes  the  family 
and  the  community  .  Students  in  the  Col- 
lege of  Human  Ecology  often  become  in- 
volved in  counseling,  program  manage- 
ment, research,  advocacy,  or  service 
delivery. 

For  many  the  College  offers  the  oppor-, 
tunity  to  turn  a  personal  hobby  into  o 
viable  major  or  career. 

Upon  graduation,  students  of  the 
department  often  find  jobs  working  for 
human  service  agencies,  consulting  firms, 
or  the  Federal,  State,  and  local  govern- 
ments. Local  area  jobs  include  the 
Federal  Drug  Administration,  Planned 
Parenthood,  or  senior  citizens  programs. 

Unfortunately,  due  to  extreme  budget 
cuts,  the  College  of  Human  Ecology  is 
slated  to  be  completely  cut  from  the 
University  repertoire.  Hopefully,  such 
dramatic  measures  will  not  be  necessary.

students  in  thie  College  of  Agricultural 
and  Life  Sciences  program  are  not  con- 
finded  to  learning  in  the  classroonri.  Thiey 
can  also  be  found  in  thie  jungles  of  Brazil, 
saving  a  species  from  extinction,  or  on  a 
poultry  farm  learning  to  breed  ctiickens. 
Thiese  students  hiave  the  unique  oppor-

Earth  and  to  ensure  future  generations 
have  a  planet  worth  exploring. 

This  year,  over  2,000  students  enrolled 
in  the  two  colleges,  increased  from  45  or 
70  new  students.  Both  programs  draw  a 
diverse  student  body  from  all  over  the 
country  and  the  world. 

The  University  of  Maryland  at  College 
Park  was  chartered  in  1856  as  an 
agricultural  college,  and  received  a  land 
grant  in  1862.  Ever  since,  agricultural  study 
and  research  has  played  on  integral  role 
in  the  educational  mission  of  the 
university. 

But  as  times  have  changed,  the  Col- 
lege of  Agriculture  has  modified  accor- 
ding to  changing  needs  of  its  students. 
Now,  the  goal  of  the  program  is  to  pro- 
vide a  comprehensive  educational  base 
necessary  to  effectively  understand  and 
confront  a  world  threatened  by 
ecological  deterioration  and  an  inade- 
quate food  supply. 

There  are  12  major  fields  of  study  within 
the  college,  including  animal  science  and 
horticulture. 

Agriculture  and  resource  economics, 
also  known  as  agribusiness,  is  the 
number-one  major  among  agriculture 
students,  according  to  Dr.  George  Bean, 
assistant  dean  for  both  colleges.  Students 
combine  studies  in  business  manage- 
ment and  agricultural  science  to  prepare 
for  agricultural  careers  and  other  oppor- 
tunities. Bean  commented,  students 
graduate  from  the  program  better 
oreoared  for  agricultural  business  careers 


than  most  business  school  graduates. 
The  scientific  education  prepares  ther 
for  real-world  problems  of  scarcity  on 
resource  management. 

Both  colleges  stress  the  importance  c 
practical  field  experience,  and  studen' 
are  highly  encouraged  to  seek  interr 
ships.  Students  have  found  positions  q 
the  National  Institutes  of  Health,  the  Foo 
and  Drug  Administration,  the  U.S.  Depar 
ment  of  Agriculture,  and  the  Fish  an 
Wildlife  Service. 

Over  lOO  undergraduate  students  I 
the  College  of  Agriculture  major  i 
natural  resource  management.  Er 
vironmental  conservation  is  an  importar 
issue  on  college  campuses  nationwide 
and  Maryland  is  one  of  the  forerunners  i' 
campus  recycling.  Bean  said. 

Aluminum  cans  and  plastic  soda  bot 
ties  are  not  the  only  things  scientists  art 
interested  in  conserving.  Research  in  th< 
conservation  of  species  biodiversity  is  i 
full  force  here  at  Maryland.  Zoology  pre 
fessor  James  Dietz  leads  a  graduate  pre 
gram  in  sustainable  development  an> 
conservation  biology  teaching  severe 
sections  of  ZOOL  312-Biology  of  Consei 
vation  and  Extinction.  Dietz  leads  ' 
research  team  devoted  to  studyin- 
golden  lion  tamerins,  the  only  know 
monogamous  species  of  their  kind.  The 
natural  habitat,  the  Atlantic  coastc 
jungles  of  Brazil,  have  been  badi 
damaged  by  fire,  and  whose  populatio 
has  been  threatened  by  avaricious  zo 
keepers. 

This  year,  Dietz  selected  thre 
undergraduate  students  to  work  wit 
graduate  students  and  Brazilian  scientisi 
studying  the  monkeys.  By  understandin 
the  relationship  between  animals,  the 
habitats  and  humans,  researchers  hop 
to  be  able  to  help  preserve  endangere 
species  such  as  the  tamerins  and  protec 
biodiversity  all  over  the  world.

Budget    Cuts    1 M  ompt 
Action 

Thousands  of  angry  students,  staff  and  faculty  members 
donned  sandwich  boards  instead  of  Halloween  costumes  on 
October  31st  to  protest  the  $40  million  in  state-mandated 
university  budget  cuts. 

About  1500  people,  many  of  whom  had  lost  their  jobs  or 
their  major  due  to  budget  cuts,  gathered  in  front  of  the  Stu- 
dent Union  at  lunchtime  before  proceeding  to  Main  Ad- 
ministration and  down  the  Route. 

As  frustration  intensified,  students  grew  more  vocal.  The 
momentum  of  the  protest  swept  the  University  into  the  media 
spotlight.  On  November  11  the  anthropology  department 
sponsored  a  rally  that  drew  a  crowd  of  about  3,000  and 
blocked  traffic  on  Route  One.  Ralliers  included  members  of  the 
English  department,  who  organized  their  own  protest  in  front 
of  the  South  Campus  Surge  Building  earlier  that  morning. 

The  Annapolis  state  house  lawn  was  covered  on  November 
14th  by  about  600  outraged  students,  faculty  and  staff  at- 
tempting to  drive  their  message  home  to  Governor  William 
Donald  Schaefer.  The  Maryland  General  Assembly  was  not  in 
session;  however,  and  campus  turnout  was  less  than  had  been 
expected.

think  it's  a  shiame  that  this  university  is  being 
dismantled  by  the  same  people  who  were 
promising  to  build  a  bigger  and  better  Universi- 
ty of  Maryland.  This  school  had  such  promise, 
but  unless  the  state  government  and  the  tax- 
payers realize  its  importance  and  contribute 
accordingly  to  its  survival,  this  valuable 
resource  will  disappear."

"Of  course  I  don't  like  the  budget  cuts.  I  can't 
afford  to  poy  more  tuition  and  I  certainly  can't 
afford  to  pay  tuition  an  extra  year,  because  I 
can't  get  thie  classes  I  need  to  get.  My  biggest 
argument  is  that  they're  raising  tuition,  lower- 
ing the  value  of  my  education  and  making  it 
difficult  to  afford  all  the  things  I'd  like,  or  even 
need.  I  just  have  to  wonder  if,  when  we're  out 
of  the  budget  crunch,  will  they  lower  the  tuition 
and  give  us  back  the  classes  we  want."

An  air  of  fear  and  dread  opened  up  the 
new  year,  as  everyone  awaited  the 
January  15th  deadline  that  President  Bush 
gave  the  Iraqis  before  attacking.  When 
the  Iraqis  did  not  pull  out  of  Kuwait,  war 
was  evident. 

People  were  constantly  glued  to  their 
televisions  and  radios  awaiting  the  next 
plan  of  action. 

As  of  January  16th,  the  United  States 
began  its  first  air  raid  attack,  bombing 
Iraq.  The  U.S.  SCUD  missiles,  for  more  ad- 
vanced than  the  Iraqi  Patriot  missiles, 
gave  the  United  States  a  clear  advan- 
tage. The  SCUDs  also  helped  protect 
Israel  from  attacks. 

Several  sorrowful  moments  come  when 
the  deaths  of  many  soldiers  was 
reported. 

The  soldiers,  led  by  General  Norman 
Schwartzkopf,  fought  a  triumphant  war. 
Although  many  people  were  against  the 
war,  there  was  a  tremendous  amount  of 
support  for  the  troops  on  the  warfront. 

Thousands  of  letters  and  packages 
were  sent  overseas  from  schools,  family 
and  loved  ones. 

When  the  troops  returned  home,  there 
were  endless  parades  of  thanks,  spon- 
sored by  various  states,  cities,  and 
counties. 

Support  shown  by  the  American  peo- 
ple added  to  the  distinctive  atmosphere 
of  the  past  year.

Operation  Desert  Storm 

US  Goes  to  War  in  the  Persian  Gidf 


January  16,  1991.  It  was  one  of  those 
days  that  people  will  rennember  the  rest 
of  their  lives.  Ask  anyone  what  they  were 
doing  when  they  heard  about  the  U.S.  Air 
attack  on  Iraq.  They  can  probably  tell 
you,  in  vivid  detail.  Just  like  when  Kennedy 
was  assassinated,  when  Armstrong  walk- 
ed on  the  moon,  or  when  the  Shuttle 
Challenger  exploded. 

In  August  of  1990,  Iraqi  troops  invaded 
Kuwait.  In  response  to  this,  the  U.S. 
deployed  the  largest  concentration  of 
military  power  since  WWII.  Then  it  was  a 
standstill.  Until  4:50  p.m.  Eastern  Standard 
Time,  Wednesday,  January  16, 1991. 

That  is  when  the  first  fighter  planes  took 
off  from  Dhahran,  Saudi  Arabia.  Over  the 
next  four  days  the  coalition  flew  more 
that  4,000  missions;  targeting  airfields, 
missile  launchers,  and  command-and- 
control  centers. 

The  fighting  continued  into  a  secona 
week.  The  death  toll  went  up  to  five 
deaths  and  160  injuries.  Iraqis  also  set  fire 
to  Kuwaiti  oil  wells  and  pumped  crude  oil 
into  the  Persian  Gulf  in  acts  of  en- 
vironmental terrorism. 

At  the  beginning  of  the  second  month, 
Saddam  Hussein  and  Iraq  announced  its 
intentions  of  withdrawing  from  Kuwait 
but  only  under  certain,  unacceptable 
conditions.  President  Bush  flat  out  de- 


nounced those  conditions  and  intense 
bombing  continued.  In  Kuwait,  Iraq  lost 
1,300  tanks  and  llOO  artillery  pieces. 

In  the  last  week  of  February,  the  ground 
attack  began  in  earnest.  Allied  forces 
pushed  toward  Kuwait  City  leaving 
thousands  of  surrendered  Iraqi  troops  in 
their  wake.  U.S.  Marines  halted  just  outside 
Kuwait  City  to  allow  Pan-Arab  forces  to 
formally  reclaim  the  Capital.  By  the  end ' 
of  the  month,  Iraqi  troops  surrendered 
and  the  liberation  of  Kuwait  was 
complete. 

Over  the  next  few  weeks,  the  U.N.  drew 
up  a  withdrawal  agreement  outlining  all 
the  conditions  that  Saddam  Hussein  and 
Iraq  were  to  adhere  to. 

Later,  withdrawal  of  the  U.S.  troops 
began.  Troops  returned  to  the  U.S.  to 
heros'  welcomes.  Parades,  parties  and 
celebrations  took  place  all  across 
America.  A  sense  of  pride  spread  across 
the  nation  as  soldiers  were  welcomed 
home. 

What  had  begun  nearly  eighth  months 
before  for  some,  had  finally  come  to  an 
end.  A  war  that  could  have  been  blown 
into  full  scale  was  laid  to  rest.  A  war  that 
smarted  many  open  wounds  of  the  Mid- 
dle East  nations,  was  finally  settled,  at 
least  for  now.

Men's  Basketball  Beats  the  Odds 


The  buzzer  sounded,  ending  the  first 
half  of  ploy  between  the  University  of 
Maryland  and  South  Florida.  The  Terps 
went  to  the  locker  roonn  down  by  17 
points,  49-32.  The  second  half  marked 
the  biggest  comeback  in  Terp  history. 
With  4:47  left  to  play,  two  Matt  Roe  free 
throws  put  the  Terps  in  the  lead,  winning 
87-81  The  unexpected  comeback 
against  South  Florida  is  one  of  many  sur- 
prises the  Terps  had  this  season.  Lost  year, 
head  coach  Gary  Williams  led  the  Terps 
to  the  second-best  one-year  turnaround 
in  the  nation.  During  the  1990-1W1  season, 
the  Terps  continued  the  turnaround.  With 
six  new  Terps  on  the  squad,  and  an  in- 
jured starter.  Junior  All-American  Walt 
Williams,  the  Terps  still  were  able  to  finish 
with  on  impressive  record  of  16-12  overall, 
and  5-9  in  the  ACC.  Many  players  had  a 
good  season  as  well.  Cedric  Lewis,  Matt 
Roe,  Walt  Williams  (until  his  injury),  Kevin 
McLinton,  and  Garfield  Smith  all  had 
suspiciously  good  stats  this  season.  Matt 
Downing,  Evers  Burns,  and  Vince  Brood- 
nax  also  played  impressively  this  season. 
At  the  start  of  the  season,  one  of  the 
main  concerns  of  Coach  Williams  was 
the  Terps'  lack  of  size.  Without  a  tall  man 
on  the  boards.  Coach  Williams  feared 
that  the  Terps  would  be  continually  out- 
rebounded.  Surprisingly,  the  Terps  were 
able  to  hold  their  own  on  the  boards.  Led

by  Cedric  Lewis,  the  Terps  were  able  to 
out-rebound  most  of  their  opponents  this 
year.  Against  West  Virginia,  the  Terps  pull- 
ed down  a  season  high  of  56  boards. 

The  Terps  also  did  well  from  the  field  this 
season.  For  most  of  the  season  the  Terps 
shot  better  than  50  percent  for  field 
goals.  Rookie  Garfield  Smith  led  the  team 
in  field  goals  with  a  percentage  of  400 
for  the  season.  Garfield  Smith's  perfor- 
mance this  season  earned  him  the  ACC 
Rookie  of  the  Week  for  the  week  of 
January  21.  Senior  Matt  Roe  also  shot  well 
from  the  field.  Roe  led  the  Terps  in  total 
points,  scoring  497  for  the  season. 

With  a  devastating  injury  to  guard  Walt 
Williams,  Coach  Gory  Williams  was  forced 
to  put  a  totally  different  starting  five  from 
one  year  ago  out  on  the  floor.  In  fact,  only 
four  players  from  the  last  season,  Cedric 
Lewis,  Vince  Broodnax,  Evers  Burns,  and 
Kevin  McLinton,  were  eligible  to  play. 
Cedric  Lewis  led  the  Terps  in  rebounding, 
both  offensively  and  defensively,  and  in 
blocked  shots.  Kevin  McLinton  led  the 
team  in  assists.  Vince  Broodnax  and  Evers 
Burns  both  played  very  well. 

Overall,  the  entire  squad  played  with  a 
mark  of  distinction,  finishing  much  better 
than  what  was  predicted  before  the 
season.  For  the  second  season  in  a  row. 
Coach  Gary  Williams  led  the  Terps  Men's 
Basketball  Team  to  on  impressive  season.

With  only  seven  seconds  left  on  the 
clock.  Junior  Power  Forward  Garfield 
Smith  clinched  a  Maryland  victory  with 
two  free  throws.  Garfield  Smith  won  two 
games  for  Maryland  by  scoring  in  the  lost 
seconds.  He  scored  two  free  throws  at 
the  end  of  the  gome  against  N.C.  State, 
and  was  four-for-four  in  the  last  seven- 
teen seconds  of  the  American  U.  game. 
Smith,  over  the  course  of  the  season  did 
much  more  than  pull  two  games  out  of 
the  fire  for  the  Terps.  He  was  an  integral 
part  of  the  Terp's  offense  and  defense, 
playing  in  every  game  this  post  season, 
starting  26  times. 

Smith  was  born  December  18,  1969,  in 
Jamaica.  He  moved  to  New  York  in  1978 
where  he  graduated  from  Evonder  Childs 
High  School.  But  he  did  not  play  for  his 
high  school  team.  Smith  played  for  the 
nationally  recognized  Riverside  Church 
AAU  Team.  As  a  high  school  junior,  he  led 
Our  Savior  Lutheran's  high  school  basket- 
ball team  to  the  New  York  State 
Championship. 

After  high  school.  Smith  spent  two  years 
at  Coffeyville  Community  College,  in  Cof- 
feyville,  Kansas.  In  his  two  years  at  Cof- 
feyville, Smith  became  the  school's  third 
all-time  leading  scorer. 

In  hid  first  year  at  the  University  of 
Maryland,  Smith  averaged  10.6  points  a 
game,  fourth  best  on  the  team.  He  was 
third  best  on  the  squad  averaging  5.4  re- 
bounds a  game.  Smith  was  also  second 
overall  shooting  from  the  field,  at  52.7  per- 
cent. Smith  shot  67.6  percent  from  the 
free  throw  line,  but  was  lO  out  of  lO  for 
free  throw  in  the  last  three  miunutes  of 
games  during  the  lost  half  of  the  season. 
Garfield  Smith  can  only  do  better  in 
future  seasons.

Spotlight 


She  paced  the  courtside  area  in  front 
of  the  bench,  shouting  instructions  to  the 
players  on  the  court.  At  every  game  this 
past  season.  Head  Coach  Chris  Weller 
could  be  found  supporting  her  team.  Her 
leadership  and  sixteen  years  of  Terp 
coaching  experience  brought  the 
Woman's  Basketball  Team  to  the  NCAA 
Tournament. 

The  Woman's  Basketball  Team  was 
picked  to  finish  fourth  in  the  ACC  by  a 
pre-season  vote  by  ACC  coaches.  Under 
the  expert  guidance  of  Coach  Weller, 
the  Terps  finished  second  with  a  con- 
ference record  of  9-5.  In  the  ACC  Tourna- 
ment, the  Terps  defeated  Georgia  Tech, 
91-73,  in  the  first  round,  but  were  stopped 
by  N.C.  State  in  the  semi  finals.  The  Terps 
performance  also  got  the  team  a  NCAA 
bid. 

Chris  Weller  is  no  stranger  to  the  NCAA 
Tournament.  This  past  year  marked  her 
twelfth  appearance  in  the  tourney.  She 
led  the  Terps  to  three  final  four  ap- 
pearances as  well.  Along  with  the  tradi- 
tional post  season  play,  Weller  led  the 
Terps  to  what  would  be  her  hundredth 
conference  win.  Only  two  other  ACC 
coaches  have  achieved  this  milestone. 

In  the  NCAA  Tournament,  the  Terps 
were  defeated  in  the  first  round  by  Holy 
Cross.  However,  this  defeat  will  not  mark 
an  end  to  Maryland's  dominance  on  the 
court.  Throughout  the  1990-1991  season, 
Weller  had  twelve  difference  starting 
lineups.  Out  of  the  different  starting  com- 
binations Weller  put  on  the  court,  94.5 
percent  of  the  scoring  was  by  non- 
seniors.  This  con  only  mean  Coach  Weller 
will  be  making  future  trips  to  the  NCAA 
Tournament,  thus  placing  Weller  in  the 
spotlight  among  some  of  the  all-time  best 
coaches.

Terps  in  the  Tourney 


Distinction  is  a  word  used  to  describe 
an  outstonding  set  of  qualities  specifically 
applied  to  one  area.  At  the  University  of 
Maryland,  distinction  in  women's  basket- 
ball comes  from  a  variety  of  special 
women,  from  all  across  the  globe.  The 
team  members  ore  not  only  Marylanders, 
but  from  as  for  away  as  Florida,  Connec- 
ticut, Oklahoma,  Pennsylvania,  Israel  and 
Yugoslavia. 

Our  Israeli  distinction  comes  from 
Alumo  Goren.  At  5'10",  she  is  the  tallest  of 
the  Terp  guard  pock.  Her  international  ex- 
perience is  what  motivated  Maryland's 
coaching  staff  to  work  to  get  her  to  the 
United  States. 

Freshmen  Center  Monica  Adams,  from 
Oklahoma  City,  has  the  ability  to  be  a 
driving  force  for  the  Terps,  In  high  school 
she  was  an  All-State  selection.  Even 
though  her  first  season  with  the  Terps, 
roster  wise,  seemed  less  than  her  high 
schol  career,  her  freshness  and  drive  built 
into  a  valuable  weapon  for  the  Terrapin 
team. 

The  Stat  list  is  filled  with  one  freshman's 
name,  Rimkus.  Bonnie  Rimkus,  from  Pitt- 
sburgh, was  first  team  All-State  pick.  She 
averaged  25  points  and  17  rebounds  a 
gome.  During  her  first  season  at  Maryland 
she  maintained  her  reputation.  Rimkus 
shot  eight  from  the  field  against  top  rank- 
ed Virginia  matching  a  school  record.  She 
now  averages  1T3  points  and  5.5  re- 
bounds. In  January  she  was  named  ACC 
Rookie  of  the  Week  -  definitely  a  distinct 
woman  in  Terrapin  basketball. 

With  only  three  seniors  and  three  juniors 
returning,  almost  all  of  Maryland's  team  is 
what  one  would  call  "still  green".  But  their 
potential  is  overwhelming.  Fans  are  an- 
ticipating future  winning  seasons! 


Mary  Barnes,  Carlo  Holmes  and  Wendy 
Martin  share  the  responsibility  for  the 
1990-1991  team.  Barnes  was  used  sparing- 
ly in  1990  but  sow  two  career  highs 
against  the  Duke  Blue  Devils  and  minutes 
of  time  against  Appalachian  State  in 
Maryland's  first  round  of  the  NCAA.  The 
Terrapins  benefit  the  most  from  Mary's 
depth  and  accurate  shooting. 

Carlo  Holmes  also  a  tri-coptain,  reach- 
ed the  lOOO  point  plateau  in  1990.  She  is 
only  the  fifth  player  in  Maryland's  history 
to  reach  this  point.  Carlo's  excellent 
reputation  started  her  freshman  year 
when  she  played  all  32  games  of  that 
season.  Now,  her  senior  year,  she  has 
totaled  93  games  in  her  career. 

Sue  Panek  returned  to  the  lineup  this 
season  as  her  sophomore  season  was 
ended  by  a  knee  injury.  Since  the 
previous  February,  Panek  has  had  to  sit 
out  of  the  gome.  Her  freshman  32  game 
season  is  very  impressive  and  her  team- 
mates hove  a  strong  future  anchor  with 
Panek. 

Estelle  Christy,  from  Bridgeport,  Con- 
necticut, totaled  192  points  this  season. 
Estelle  is  a  hard  worker  in  both  practice 
and  on  the  court.  She  is  on  instinctive 
player;  ECAC  Rookie  of  the  Week  with  12 
points,  four  rebounds,  and  three  steals  in 
15  minutes  of  play  for  the  week.  Christy  is 
a  good  passer  who  sees  the  whole  court 
very  well.  Her  excellent  sights  will  also  set 
her  for  potential  leadership. 

Jesse  Hicks,  o  center  from  Richmond 
Virginia,  is  noted  for  her  academic  and 
athletic  ability.  A  four  year  academic 
achiever  in  high  school,  Jesse  averaged 
lO.l  point  per  game  her  freshman  season 
at  Maryland.  She  has  now  moved  the 
score  up  to  13.8.  Jesse  Hicks  may  soon 


become  the  leading  Terrapin  scorer. 
Jesse  was  struck  with  misfortune  in  prac- 
tice when  she  broke  her  third  metatarsal 
in  her  right  foot  last  December,  But  her 
bounce  was  bock  incredible,  she  scored 
16  points  and  pulled  lO  rebounds  against 
North  Carolina  in  January,  Jesse  Hicks  has 
the  ability  to  develop  into  one  of  the 
strongest  players  in  Maryland's  history,      i 

-Last,  but  not  least,  is  the  distinctive 
woman  behind  the  lady  Terps  -  Chris 
Weller,  As  a  Maryland  graduate,  she  has 
15  seasons  already  behind  her.  She  has 
led  the  Terps  to  the  final  four  on  three  oc- 
casions, and  to  the  ACC  Championship, 
a  record  eight  times.  Weller's  slate  of 
achievements  show  her  ability  to  not  only 
to  get  the  job  done,  but  to  excel.  She 
gives  her  women  the  chances,  ex- 
periences and  support  they  need  to 
reach  the  top.  The  Terps  ranked  as  high 
as  12th  last  season  and  ore  looking  to 
continue  that  string. 

Chris  Weller  is  one  of  the  top  coaches 
in  women's  basketball.  In  the  first  year, 
1975-1976,  the  Terps,  led  by  Weller  were 
20-4.  In  1981-1982,  they  were  25-7,  went  to 
the  ACC  Championship,  the  NCAA  Tour- 
nament, and  the  Final  Four,  ranking  third 
overall.  Though  most  of  Weller's  limelight 
is  seen  as  statistics,  her  coaching  ability 
and  efforts  cannot  be  deemed  any  less 
than  most  important. 

In  takes  a  strong  woman  to  lead  a 
talented  group.  But,  this  group  of  Ter- 
rapins is  led  by  one  of  the  best.  Few  col- 
leges in  the  ACC  con  claim  such  a 
distinction.

Tied  in  Knots 


On  November  lO,  1990,  the  University  of  Maryland  Men's  Wrestling  Team  began 
their  season  unaware  of  the  achievements  their  hard  w/ork  would  reap.  They 
dominated  and  won  l<ey  matches,  four  of  their  teammates  were  recognized  by  the 
ACC,  and  the  team  ended  their  season  with  an  overall  record  of  11-8. 

Their  record  higlights  prominent  victories  against  such  opponents  as  American 
(28-9),  James  Madison  (46-6),  Coppin  State  (47-0),  and  Howard  (56-0). 

These  victories  were  sparked  by  the  team's  four  leading  players.  Tom  Miller,  with  a 
27-3-1  record,  captured  the  ACC  Championship  title  in  the  142  pound  category.  Matt 
Caro  became  the  runner-up  in  the  158  pound  category  with  a  record  of  23-11-1.  Mike 
Core  (29-9-1)  was  the  runner-up  in  the  177  pound  category.  Finally,  Kevin  Brown  swept 
up  the  ACC  Champion  title  in  the  190  pound  category. 

The  1991-1992  wrestling  team  is  looking  to  come  back  even  stronger  than  last 
season.  With  a  schedule  just  as  difficult,  the  Terps  wrestlers  are  up  to  the  challenge. 
Key  matches  include  Penn  State,  Coppin  State,  American,  and  NC  State.

The  University  of  Maryland's  Women's  Tennis  Team  faced  a  rough  season  lasf  year 
as  they  only  won  three  out  of  18  matches,  going  0-6  in  the  ACC  and  3-15  overall. 

The  Lady  Terps  did  win  impressive  matches  against  Howard  University  (9-0), 
American  University  (5-1),  and  George  Washington  University  (6-2),  They  had  close 
match  scores  against  Rutgers,  losing  by  only  one  match  (4-5)  and  Georgetown  also 
with  a  match  record  of  (4-5). 

Perhaps  one  of  the  most  surprising  match  results  came  against  ACC  rival  North 
Carolina  State,  when  the  Lady  Terps  caused  the  Wolfpackers  to  sweat  a  little,  but  lost 
by  only  one  match,  The  final  match  record  of  four  wins  to  NC  State's  five  wins.

The  University  of  Maryland's  Men's  Tennis  Team  fared  only 
slightly  better  than  the  women's  team  this  past  year,  finishing 
the  season  with  only  seven  wins  out  of  20  matches.  The  team 
went  0-6  in  the  ACC  and  7-13  overall. 

There  were  some  highlights  however  as  the  men  had  con- 
vincing match  wins  over  Miami,  Ohio  (6-3),  Richmond  (6-2), 
Penn  State  (8-1)  and  a  shutout  against  American  University 
(6-0). 

The  Terps  also  managed  to  squeak  by  Washington  College 
and  in-state  rival  Navy,  both  with  match  scores  of  5-4. 

Some  of  the  Terps  outstanding  players  included  the  number 
one  seed  Marco  Turro  and  Greg  O'conner.

A  grey  cloud  hung  over  Shipley  Field, 
home  of  the  Terrapin  baseball  team.  Ken 
Noe  stepped  up  to  the  plate.  He  looked 
oft  to  the  outfield,  and  prepared  to  hit  the 
ball.  The  pitcher  sent  the  ball  to  home 
plate,  where  it  met  with  the  swinging  bat 
of  Noe.  Soaring  away  into  the  outfield, 
the  bai  left  the  strike  zone,  giving  Noe  a 
base  hit. 

Throughout  the  Terps'  1991  season,  one 
person.  Ken  Noe,  consistently  played 
superb  baseball.  Junior  Ken  Noe,  playing 
every  game  but  one,  led  the  team  with  a 
.381  batting  average.  He  had  a  total  of  82 
hits,  28  doubles,  3  triples,  and  3  home  runs. 
Also,  Noe  was  able  to  score  46  runs,  bat- 
ted in  44  runs,  and  stole  9  bases.  By  the 
end  of  the  season,  Noe  was  still  among 
the  front  runners  for  the  ACC  Batting  Title. 
Noe  finished  third  in  the  ACC  for  batting. 

Noe's  great  ball  playing  made  him 
spark  the  spark  that  held  a  glimmer  of 
hope  in  Terrapin  fans  throughout  the  1991 
season.

The  Wind  Up 


With  the  arrival  of  each  spring  comes  the  cracking  of  a  swinging  bat  meeting  a  ball,  players  running 
bases,  and  lone  fielders  catching  Mr.  Spalding.  The  season  when  plants  and  animals  come  out  of  hiber- 
nation, also  brings  the  Terrapin  out  to  Shipley  Field  for  baseball  season. 

Head  Coach  Tom  Bradley  was  in  his  firts  year  as  head  of  the  Terp  squad.  Coach  Bradley  is  a  University 
of  Maryland  Alumni  and  well  as  on  Alumni  of  Terrapin  baseball.  In  the  1970's,  Bradley  played  for  the 
Chicago  White  Sox,  winning  15  gomes  for  the  Sox. 

For  Terrapin  fans,  winning  is  important.  Coach  Bradley  had  a  tremendous  task  ahead  of  him  in  1991.  The 
Terps  season  schedule  showed  many  tough  opponents.  With  two  nationally  ranked  teams  to  compete 
against  inside  the  ACC,  Georgia  Tech  and  Clemson,  the  Terps  came  up  short  in  runs.  Outside  the  ACC, 
the  Terps  were  very  competitive.  From  the  start  of  the  season,  it  was  apparent  that  fundamentals  were 
going  to  be  stressed.  Perseverance  paid  off,  and  the  Terps  finished  the  season  13-2,  before  the  ACC 
Tournament, 

Throughout  the  season  there  were  key  players  that  continually  played  well.  Ken  Noe  led  the  team  in 
batting  with  a  .381  average.  John  Rayne  and  Tim  G'Neil  were  the  two  anchors  of  the  pitching  rotation 
while  Charles  Devereaux  was  an  ace  reliever.  With  one  year  under  his  belt.  Coach  Tom  Bradley  is  ready 
for  1992.

May  18, 1991--The  Maryland  Women's  Lacrosse  Team  met  the  University  of  New  Hampshire  in  the  Na- 
tional Semifinals  It  was  the  culmination  of  two  extremely  successful  months  of  lacrosse.  Victories  were  a 
common  occuronce  as  the  Terps  faced  defeat  only  three  times.  After  a  nail-biting  4-3  overtime  victory, 
it  was  off  to  vie  for  the  National  Championship  Title. 

The  1991  Women's  Lacrosse  Team  made  it  all  the  way  to  the  National  Championship  game,  but  come 
up  short.  8-6,  against  rival  Virginia.  However,  the  team  enjoyed  a  very  successful  season  going  14  and  3 
overall  with  many  players  posting  personal  bests. 

Big  wins  were  the  story  a  number  of  occasions  as  the  Terps  downed  the  University  of  Pennsylvania  17-1 
on  April  28,  West  Chester  fell  18-3,  and  Northwester  was  left  in  a  cloud  of  dust,  18-6  on  April  5, 1991. 

Key  players  on  the  Terp  1991  squad  included  goalie  Mondy  Stevenson  (86  goals  allowed  with  133  saves 
for  a  ,607  pet.).  Michele  Uhlfelder  played  16  games,  making  39  goals.  Leonn  Shuck  played  17  games, 
making  43  goals;  and  Betsy  Elder  also  played  17  gomes,  making  25  goals. 

The  challenges  do  not  get  any  easier  and  the  schedule  will  not  lighten  up  as  the  ladies  prepare  for 
another  successful  season.

Senior  goalie  Steve  Kavovit,  an  RTVF 
major,  lool<s  ahead  to  thie  1992  lacrosse 
season  and  his  future  with  great  anticipa- 
tion. His  plans  for  after  graduation  are 
uncertain,  but  graduate  school  is  a  viable 
option.  He  hopes  to  become  a  large 
scale  television  or  movie  producer. 

Kavovit  spent  one  year  at  Herkimer 
Community  College  in  New  York,  then 
transferred  to  Maryland  in  1989.  After 
three  years  of  NCAA  Lacrosse,  Steve 
became  one  of  the  leading  men  on  the 
Terrapin  team. 

Reflecting  on  his  lacrosse  experiences 
at  Maryland,  Kavovit  said,  "They  have  a 
great  program  here,  from  a  team 
perspective."  Hov\/ever,  "From  a  University 
perspective,  the  lacrosse  program  in 
general  is  not  recognized  as  much  as  it 
should  be.  We  lose  out  because  of  the 
money  pulled  in  by  basketball  and  foot- 
ball, but  vje've  been  the  team  that's 
been  v^inning  the  last  few  years." 

Kavovit  saw  action  in  all  fifteen  games 
last  year  as  the  Terp's  starting  goalie.  His 
224  saves  and  143  opponent  goals  gave 
him  a  .610  overage,  while  other  goalies 
hod  only  20  saves  and  13  opponent  goals 
combined.  Kovovit's  excellent  showing 
earned  him  the  accomplishment  of  29 
saves  -  the  most  saves  in  a  game  of  any 
Terp  goalie  throughout  the  entire  1991 
season. 

Ten  years  of  lacrosse  has  landed  Steve 
Kavovit  OS  the  premier  goalie  of  the 
1991-1992  Maryland  Men's  Lacrosse  Team. 
If  he  hod  to  do  it  over  again,  he  said  he 
would,  "take  high  school  seriously  so  that  I 
could  have  come  right  to  a  four-year 
school."  Yet,  Steve  Kavovit  has  made 
three  years  of  Maryland  Terrapin 
Lacrosse  count  -  in  a  most  distinctive 
manner.

Men's  Lacrosse  Goes  to  Final  Four 


Over  the  past  few  years,  the  University  of  Maryland  IVlen's  Lacrosse  Program  has 
been  one  of  the  finest  of  all  the  inter-collegiate  athletic  teams.  The  1991  Men's 
Lacrosse  Team  was  no  exception  as  they  sailed  their  way  to  the  NCAA  semi-finals. 

Unfortunately,  the  excitement  and  anticipation  of  the  trip  to  Syracuse  University 
resulted  in  a  loss  to  rival  Towson  State.  15-11.  However,  the  team  enjoyed  a  successful 
season  going  10-5  overall,  including  a  5-2  record  on  Terrapin  turf. 

The  Terps  faired  well  in  both  the  first  round  and  quarter  finals  of  the  NCAA  Tourna- 
ment, swiftly  defeating  Rutgers  and  Brown,  13-7  and  16-3,  respectively. 

Key  players  of  the  1991  Terp  squad  included  goalie  Steve  Kavovit  capturing  224 
saves  and  143  opponent  goals.  Mark  Douglas  snagged  147  shots,  52  goals,  and  22 
assists.  Rob  Wurzburger  raked  in  96  shots,  44  goals,  and  lO  assists.  Chris  Dai!  accrued 
46  shots,  15  goals,  and  13  assists.  Finally,  Blake  Wynot  racked  up  62  shots,  15  goals,  and 
lO  assists. 

The  1992  squad  is  looking  sharp  as  ever.  New  players,  as  well  as  veteran  seniors,  are 
lookir^g  forward  to  more  success.  As  the  Terps  anticipate  the  coming  season,  the 
schedule  does  not  get  easier.  Key  motch-ups  include  Towson  State,  C.W.  Post,  North 
Carolina,  Virginia,  and  Johns  Hopkins.

Gym  "Balance"  Beam 

Gymnasts  Finish  Fifth  at  ECACs 


The  gymnast  works  alone,  attempting 
to  impress  thie  judges  and  score  hiigh.  Ttie 
balance  beam,  vault,  uneven  bars,  and 
floor  competition  is  where  the  gymnast 
seeks  to  perfect  a  performance.  For 
University  of  Maryland  gymnastics  fans, 
the  Terrapins  appear  to  be  a  versatile 
team. 

Many  team  members  contributed  to  a 
winning  1991  season.  The  Terps  cartwheel- 
ed to  an  impressive  13  win  and  8  loss 
record.  Under  the  leadership  of  Coach 
Bob  Nelligan,  the  Terp  performance  in  the 
March  ECAC  Championships  the  team 
placed  fifth  overall  with  a  score  of  183.90 
points.  This  marked  the  ninth  time  during 
the  season  that  the  Terps  scored  over  183 


points. 

Out  of  the  great  performers  on  the 
team,  Kristen  Pagans  leaps  ahead.  Kristen 
finished  fourth  at  the  ECAC  in  the  all 
around  competition.  She  was  also  named 
the  ECAC  Rookie-of-the-year  by  the 
ECAC  coaches.  During  the  season, 
Kristen  consistently  scored  above  9.40  in 
competitions.  Only  once  during  the 
season  did  she  score  below  9.00  on  the 
uneven  bars,  and  below  9.30  on  the  floor 
event. 

The  1991  season  went  well  for  the  Terps, 
With  many  returning  gymnasts,  the  1992 
season  should  be  even  more 
spectacular.

Terps  Dive  In 


The  Maryland  swimmers  entered  their  1991  season  striving  for  success  and  looking  to  repeat  some  of 
their  past  accomplishments  in  the  1990  season.  Overall,  the  men  finished  v/ith  a  record  of  9-5  and  the 
women  finished  at  6-8-1.  Coach  Steve  Mahaney.  in  his  fourth  coaching  season,  looks  to  challenge  and 
motivate  the  swimmers  to  reach  beyond  last  year's  achievements. 

One  the  men's  side,  February  2,  1990,  brought  a  stunning  upset  over  defending  ACC  Champion 
University  of  Virginia,  142-101  --  Maryland's  first  victory  over  the  Cavaliers  since  1986.  Standouts  during  this 
meet  included  Scot  Modiil  and  diver  Mike  Noonan.  In  addition,  victories  were  enjoyed  against  American, 
Johns  Hopkins,  VillarvDva,  and  LaSalle. 

For  the  men,  ACC  stars  included:  senior  Kurt  Kendall,  top  ranked  in  times  for  the  50,  lOO,  200  meter, 
and  the  500  free  style;  Trent  McNichol  (lOO  free  and  individual  medley);  Jeff  Griesbauer  (lOO  fly);  and 
Vince  Carmosino  (lOO  breast,  200  breast,  and  lOO  free).  Five  relay  times  also  found  their  way  into  the 
top  three  ACC  rankings  for  the  men. 

The  women  also  had  a  strong  showing  at  many  meets  throughout  the  1990  season.  Although  unable 
to  overcome  lOth  ranked  Virginia,  victories  were  claimed  over  rivals  Johns  Hopkins,  George  Washington, 
and  the  Naval  Academy.  Lady  Terp  standouts  included;  Amey  Bosseler  (top  ACC  times  in  lOO  back, 
200  back);  Dori  Miller  (lOO  breast,  200  breast);  and  outstanding  performances  by  All-Americon  diver 
April  Tassi.  Two  of  the  women's  relay  times  also  ranked  with  the  ACC's  top  times. 

As  the  Terps  begin  the  1991,  tough  challenges  await.  Meets  against  ACC  rivals  ore  the  main  focus, 
while  other  opponents  include  Navy,  University  of  Buffalo,  and  American.  In  addition,  Dori  Miller  and 
Vince  Carmosino  will  strive  to  repeat  their  ranking  in  the  NCAA  top  twenty.

Troubled 
Terps 

On  September  8, 1991,  the  men's  soccer 
team  started  its  season.  But,  thiey  hod  ar- 
rived weeks  earlier  to  begin  practicing  for 
the  season.  In  these  early  weeks, 
freshmen  and  sophomores  adjusted  and 
looked  forward  to  the  season.  Unfor- 
tunately, ten  weeks  later  their  record 
(5-9-4)  did  not  reflect  all  of  their  hard 
work  and  preparation. 

The  record  does  not  show  the  five  over- 
times the  team  fought  through  or  the 
6-0  shutout  against  Lafayette.  It  does 
not  tell  of  the  l-O  win  in  overtime  over 
the  UNC  Tarheels  or  of  the  1-1  dead-lock 
against  Loyola. 

In  those  crucial  games,  the  team  look- 
ed for  its  leadership  from  junior  forward 
Jeff  Stroud,  leading  the  team  in  goals 
with  four,  and  they  looked  to  their  only 
goalkeeper  Carmine  Isaoco,  who  hod 
108  saves  this  season. 

Carmen  Isocco,  Marland's  own  All  ACC 
Champion  goallie,  is  a  junior  with  one 
more  year  to  rebuild  the  soccer  program. 
Isocco  came  here  in  the  fall  of  1986 
from  Canada.  He  chose  to  go  to  college 
in  the  United  States  to  expand  his  hor- 
zons,  and  discover  a  new  culture.  He 
realized  that  a  full  scholarship  to  on 
American  university  was  not  an  oppor- 
tunity to  pass  up.  He  picked  Maryland 
because  of  its  location,  reputation,  and 
good  athletic  programs. 

In  the  immediate  future,  Isocco  plans  to 
complete  his  senior  year  and  graduate 
with  a  degree  in  philosophy.  With  his 
degree,  he  plans  to  teach  at  a  university 
or  play  professional  soccer  in  Canada. 


A  major  1991  Women's  Soccer  Team 
highlight  was  their  hard-won  victory  over 
Duke  University  (2-1).  The  victory  advanc- 
ed the  team  to  the  ACC  Tournament 
semifinals  against  North  Carolina.  Unfor- 
tunately, the  Lady  Terps  fell  short  losing  to 
the  torheels,  and  completing  their  season 
with  a  7-12  record. 

However,  the  record  does  not  show  the 
individual  achievements  the  team  attain- 
ed this  season.  Their  games  went  into 
overtime  five  times,  including  the  game 
against  Dul<e  in  the  ACC  semifinals. 

On  the  1991  team,  there  were  three 
leaders,  consistently  contributing  to  the 
team.  Randi  Goldblatt  lead  the  team  with 
seven  goals,  Audra  Weber  followed  with 
six  goals,  and  Stephanie  Magro  rounded 
the  offense  with  five  goals  and  four 
assists.  The  defense  was  manned  by 
goalkeeper  Cailin  Mullins  who  had  71 
spectacular  saves. 

Although  the  women's  team  suffered  a 
loss  in  the  ACC  semifinals,  they  ended 
their  season  with  a  2-0  victory  over  rival 
UMBC. 


Fullback  Michelle  Ogden  strays  from  the  "norm"  of 
the  basic  four-year  player.  Michelle  played  for  the 
Lady  Terps  for  four  years  before  taking  a  leave  of 
absence  this  year  to  get  married.  She  has  also  started 
a  family,  with  the  birth  of  her  new  baby. 

As  the  1990  team  defensive  MVP.  Ogden's  attitude 
towards  Maryland  soccer  is  very  positive.  Amazingly, 
she  did  not  intend  to  play  college  soccer  after  high 
school.  "I  had  always  played  the  game  for  fun,  but  I 
didn't  think  I  was  good  enough  to  play  college  soc- 
cer," said  Ogden. 

The  University  of  Arkansas  at  Litte  Rock  had  offered 
Ogden  a  partial  soccer  scholarship.  Frostburg  State 
University  offered  her  a  track  and  field  scholarship.  She 
even  had  the  paperwork  ready  to  send  in,  when  her 
friend  stepped  in.  With  a  little  persuasion,  her  friend 
convinced  her  to  play  soccer  for  the  Lady  Terps. 

Michelle  could  not  have  been  more  pleased.  She 
was  able  to  remain  close  to  home  while  attending 
school  and  had  the  opportunity  to  participate  in  a 
wonderful  program.  "We  have  nowhere  to  go  but  up," 
said  Ogden,  "But,  I  really  excited  about  our  freshmen 
this  year  and  what  they  will  be  able  to  do  in  the 
future." 

In  addition  to  this,  Ogden  compliments  her  coach. 
April,  for  all  her  hard  work,  dedication,  and  excellent 
knowledge  of  the  game. 

Ogden's  academic  also  hold  high  importance  to 
her.  The  Kinesiology  and  pre-Physical  Therapy  major 
has  plans  to  attend  physical  therapy  school  following 
her  graduation  in  1993.

Ups  £t  Downs 

Krivak     Resignation     Concludes 
Disappointing    Season 


The  University  of  Maryland  Football 
teann  started  the  season  tioping  to  better 
last  seasons  winning  record  of  6-5  and  to 
return  once  again  to  a  prestigious  bowl 
game 

The  Terps  returned  a  host  of  great 
players  in  hopes  of  having  that  great 
season.  These  players  included  defensive 
tackle.  Lorry  Webster,  kicker  Dan  DeAr- 
nnas,  center  Mitch  Suplee,  H-Back  Frank 
Wycheck,  running  bock  Mark  Mason,  and 
wide  receiver  Gene  Thomas. 

After  starting  the  season  with  a  17-6  vic- 
tory over  ACC  rival.  University  of  Virginia, 
the  Terps'  bubble  burst  with  a  four  game 
losing  streak,  including  losses  to  Syracuse, 
West  Virginia,  Pittsburgh,  and  Georgia 
Tech. 

The  Terps  then  racked  up  a  second 
ACC  win  to  go  2-1  in  the  conference.  This 
time  the  victim  was  Wake  Forest  as 
Maryland  squeaked  by  with  a  score  of 
23-22. 

That  would  be  the  end  of  the  Terps  win- 
ning ways  OS  they  lost  their  remaining  five 
gomes  including  a  heartbreaking  loss  to 
Duke,  13-17,  on  Homecoming,  and  the  final 
game  of  the  season  to  N.C.  State,  17-20. 

At  the  conclusion  of  a  season  plagued 
by  injuries,  quarterback  controversies, 
and  just  plain  bod  luck,  head  coach,  Joe 
Krivak  resigned. 

After  on  extensive  search,  the  University 
of  Maryland  named  Holy  Cross  head 
coach,  Mark  Duffner,  as  Krivak's  replace- 


ment. Duffner  brought  with  him  one  of 
the  winningest  records  in  the  nation,  as 
well  as  some  of  the  top  specialist 
coaches. 

Although  the  Terps  team  didn't  amass 
that  winning  record,  some  individuals  on 
the  team  managed  to  put  together  im- 
pressive seasons. 

Sophomore  H-Back,  Frank  Wycheck 
came  off  a  sensational  freshman  season 
to  continue  his  impressive  stats.  Wychek 
averaged  7.3  yards  per  carry  rushing,  run- 
ning a  total  of  three  times  for  22  yards, 
and  averaged  9.7  yards  per  reception. 

Senior  plocekickerpunter,  Don  DeAr- 
mas  concluded  his  career  as  a  Terp  by 
leading  the  whole  team  in  scoring  with  a 
total  of  36  points  on  the  season. 

On  the  defensive  side  of  the  line,  junior, 
Mike  Jormolowich  led  the  Terps  with  153 
tackles  throughtout  the  season  including 
one  interception.  Another  junior.  Dove 
Morrone,  had  an  excellent  season  as  well. 
Morrone  was  second  to  Jormolowich  in 
total  tackles,  amassing  92  on  the  season. 
In  addition  to  this,  Marrone  was  also  an 
Academic  All-Americon  candidate,  with 
o  3.8  g.p.a. 

Although  the  Terps  suffered  a  disap- 
pointing season,  they  are  looking  forward 
to  next  season,  with  a  new  head  coach 
and  coaching  staff,  and  a  host  of  young 
talent,  the  Terps  hope  once  again  to 
return  to  their  winning  ways.

Terps  Serve  It  Up 

Injuries  Kill  Terps  Hopes  of  Repeat 


The  Terrapin  Volleyball  team  began  its 
season  with  high  hopes.  Hopes  of 
repeating  as  ACC  Champions.  Hopes  of 
returning  to  the  NCAA  Tournament  and 
advancing  past  the  first  round  matches. 

Reality  struck  early  in  the  season  as  in- 
juries stung  the  Terps.  Key  injuries  to 
starters  gave  the  Terps  reason  to  doubt 
their  chances.  Injuries  included  last  years' 
ACC  player  of  the  year.  Colleen  Hurley, 
middle  hitter  Andrea  Cakes,  outside  hitter 
Vol  Vermeulen,  and  later  in  the  season  to 
setteroutside  hitter  Andrea  Mondella. 

With  half  of  the  starting  line-up 
hampered  by  injuries,  the  Terps  still 
managed  to  finish  vjlih  an  overall  record 
of  18-11  and  5-2  in  the  ACC.  The  Terps  also 
finished  second  to  Duke  in  the  ACC  final 
standings. 

The  Terps  put  together  their  longest 
winning  streak  of  the  season  beginning 
with  the  ACC  opening  weekend  games 
against  Clemson  and  Georgia  Tech.  The 
weekend  was  highlighted  by  the  battle 
of  the  Malins  sisters.  Terp  freshman  Kelly 
Malins  went  head  to  head  with  her  sister 
Wendy,  playing  for  Georgia  Tech.  The 
Terps  swept  the  weekends'  games 
beginning  their  quest  for  a  repeat  title. 

The  Terps  continued  their  ACC  quest 
with  victories  over  the  newest  addition  to 
the  ACC,  Florida  State  and  later  North 
Carolina  State  and  Virginia.  The  Terps  suf- 
fered a  minor  setback  with  a  loss  to 
Western  Michigan  at  the  Western 
Michigan  Invitational. 

The  Terps  biggest  test  came  while  fac- 
ing Duke.  Both  teams  were  undefeated 
in  the  ACC  and  the  showdown  was  said 
to  be  a  preview  to  the  championship 
game  at  the  ACC  Tournament.  Maryland 
took  Duke  to  five  games  before  bowing 
out  losing  the  match  two  games  to  three. 

Maryland  went  into  the  ACC  Tourna- 
ment knowing  they  had  to  win  the  tour- 
nament to  return  to  the  NCAA's.  But,  they 


came  out  flat  and  lost  in  the  first  round  to 
a  Virginia  team  they  had  beaten  during 
the  regular  season  three  gomes  to  one. 
This  loss  ended  the  Terps  hopes  of 
repeating  their  ACC  title  and  was  very 
costly,  OS  the  Terps  lost  senior  Andrea 
Mondella  due  to  an  ankle  injury  in  the  se- 
cond game  of  the  match. 

The  Terps  season  wasn't  a  complete 
loss  though.  In  spite  of  nagging  injuries, 
senior  Colleen  Hurley  was  once  again 
honored  with  a  selection  to  the  AII-ACC 
first  team  and  sophomore  setter  Nicole 
Lantagne  was  selected  to  the  AII-ACC 
second  team. 

Setter,  Nicole  Lantagne  finished  the 
season  with  a  team  high  1,219  assists, 
averaging  11  assists  per  match  and  43 
aces  for  the  season.  Nicole  also  had  391 
digs  for  the  season,  averaging  3.5  a 
game.  Outside  hitter  Colleen  Hurley  finish- 
ed up  her  strong  career  as  a  Terp.  Col- 
leen finished  with  a  team  high  of  398  digs, 
third  in  the  ACC  and  a  team  high  of  387 
kills,  which  was  seventh  best  in  the  ACC. 

Overall,  the  Terps  had  a  good  season. 
But,  next  year  they  plan  to  fight  to  regain 
the  ACC  title  and  return  to  the  NCAA 
Tournament.

Andrea  Oakes,  a  junior  pre-Elementary 
education  major,  achieved  tremendous 
success  in  tier  thiird  season  on  the  Univer- 
sity of  Marylands'  volleyball  team.  She  has 
very  positive  feelings  about  UMs' 
Volleyball  Program.  "The  coaches  do  a 
good  job,  and  together  we  (the  team) 
have  built  ourselves  into  a  very  strong 
program,"  commented  Oakes. 

Oakes  feels  the  strength  of  the  pro- 
gram is  due  to  the  successful  recruitment 
over  the  post  few  years.  "The  players  that 
have  been  recruited  have  helped  in 
strengthening  the  program." 

Oakes  finished  the  season  with  very 
distinctive  statistics.  She  led  the  team 
with  a  .290  hitting  percentage,  which 
was  seventh  best  in  the  ACC.  She  also 
averaged  3.08  kills  per  game,  had  33 
aces  during  the  season,  as  well  as  229 
digs.  Oakes  was  an  all-ACC  honoree  in 
1990  and  also  earned  the  most  improved 
player  team  award  in  1990. 

In  addition  to  volleyball,  Oakes  really 
enjoys  the  University  itself.  "It  offers  a 
great  education,  beautiful  environment, 
and  a  large  campus.  At  first,  when  you 
get  here,  everything  seems  very  in- 
timidating, but  once  you  get  to  know 
people,  especially  if  you  are  on  a  team, 
you  make  a  lot  of  friends  and  everything 
seems  smaller." 

In  the  future,  Oakes  will  graduate  with  a 
degree  in  Elementary  Education  and 
hopes  to  obtain  a  teaching  position.  "I 
don't  really  think  that  I  will  be  playing 
much  volleyball  oftger  graduation. 
Maybe  on  a  club  teem  or  something,  but 
I  really  want  to  focu.  on  my  career."

Best  in  the  ACC 


Field  Hockey  Goes  to  Final  Four 


The  1991  University  of  Maryland  field  hockey  team  took  collegiate  field  hockey  to 
soaring  heights.  Their  incredible  success  was  110%  team  effort,  as  they  overcame 
many  obstacles.  Their  greatest  challenge  v\/as  the  absence  of  their  coach,  Missy 
Mehorg,  as  she  played  this  year  with  the  U.S.  National  Field  Hockey  Team. 

With  these  challenges  facing  them,  the  team  achieved  a  spectacular  15-4-1 
record,  a  second  place  finish  in  the  highly  competitive  Atlantic  Coast  Conference. 
Five  team  members  on  the  All-Acc  Tournament  Team  and  a  lO  gome  winning 
streak  in  which  the  Terrapins  outscored  their  opponents  by  on  incredible  32-2 
margin. 

The  Lady  Terps  entered  the  NCAA  Tournament  ranked  fourth  in  the  nation,  and 
they  made  it  all  the  way  to  the  Final  Four. 

Exceptional  players  such  as  goalie  Irene  Horvot,  a  freshman  from  Austalio,  who 
had  eleven  shutouts  in  the  regular  season,  and  forward  Lisa  Rowe,  who  led  the 
ACC  in  scoring  with  23  points  and  was  second  in  goals  with  12. 

Other  standouts  include:  midfielder  Sabrina  Salom,  midfielder  Boukje  Vermeulen, 
midfielder  Elisso  Bechman,  defender  Mondy  Stevenson,  and  forward  Amy  Schubert. 

While  the  Terps  did  accomplish  a  great  deal  this  season,  disaoppointment  loom- 
ed large  as  they  were  unable  to  overcome  defending  National  Champion  Old 
Dominion  in  the  NCAA  semifinal  game. 


Distinctive  Spirit 

UM  Cheerleaders  and  Testudo  Terps'  Most  Loyal  Fans 


LET'S  GO  MARYLAND!! 
LET'S  GO  IVIARYLAND!! 

That  chant  has  become  almost 
synonymous  with  the  University  of 
Maryland's  biggest  crowd  of  spirited  and 
loyal  fans  -  the  UM  cheerleaders.  Anyone 
that  has  ever  been  to  a  football  game  is 
familiar  with  this  team. 

These  ore  the  fans  in  red  and  white 
leading  thousands  of  Terp  fans  as  they 
cheer  the  Terps  to  victory.  They  can  fire 
up  the  crowds  with  cheers  and  leave 
spectators  speechless  with  awesome 
acrobatics,  amazing  pyramids,  and 
breathtaking  stunts.  UM  Cheerleaders 
ore  irrefutably  one  of  the  best  squads  on 
the  East  Coast. 


Also  jumping  on  the  spirit  bandwagon  is 
Testudo,  UM's  faithful  mascot.  Our  belov- 
ed mascot  was  always  spotted  at  the 
biggest  games,  and  even  at  the  ones 
that  were  small.  I  wasn't  unusual  to  see 
Testudo  dueling  it  out  with  opposing 
mascots  or  to  see  him  firing  up  the 
crowds  along  with  cheerleaders. 

What  makes  Testudo  so  great,  though, 
is  his  relationship  with  the  fans.  Many, 
times  Testudo  was  seen  walking  through 
the  crowds  of  Terps  fans,  encouraging 
them  to  cheer  for  the  Terps  or  stopping 
to  play  with  a  young  Terp  fan. 

In  victory  or  defeat,  both  the 
cheerleaders  and  Testudo  maintained  a 
loyalty  to  Terp  sports  teams  and  fans 
unequaled  by  any  other,

Jim  Morrison  probably  hod  no  idea  that  his 
band's  provocative  hit  would  become  a  favorite 
at  The  Cellar.  But  its  meaning  transcends  the 
heavy  gazes  of  late  night  bar  scopers.  The 
message  is  that  if  one  takes  the  time  to  knov\/ 
others,  people  are  really  not  so  strange  after  all. 

The  University  of  Maryland  prides  itself  on  its 
diversity.  But  some  students  thought  on  even 
higher  level  of  acceptance  and  understanding 
could  be  expected  from  the  campus. 

Jennifer  Shapkin,  a  junior  art  history  major, 
quoted  this  line  sung  by  Morrison  that  shows  how 
stereotypes  and  misconceptions  can  grow  out  of 
fear. 

""People  are  strange  when  you're  a  stranger, 
faces  look  ugly  when  you're  alone;  women  seem 
wicked  when  you're  unwanted,  streets  surround 
you  when  you're  down,'"  quoted  Shapkin.  "People 
think  this  campus  is  so  diverse,  but  it  should  be 
more  open  to  self  expression.  People  of  this  day 
and  age  who  are  going  to  college  to  get 
educated  should  not  have  this  mentality,"  Shapkin 
said. 


Love,  sadness  and  joy  are  eternal 
themes  employed  by  recording  artists 
for  generations,  but  piano  man  Billy 
Joel  seems  to  have  captured  the 
youthful  optimism  of  the  '90s 
American  generation  In  his  song,  "Only 
the  Good  Die  Young." 

Sophomore  education  major  Artemis 
Kapsilis  expressed  her  feelings  about 
the  song,  quoting  a  line  that  encap- 
sulates the  feelings  of  many  students 
who  enjoyed  their  precious  time  here 
at  Maryland  despite  budget  v\/orries. 

"He  (Billy  Joel)  says.  They  say  there's 
a  heaven  for  those  who  W\\\  v^alt,  some 
say  it's  better  but  I  say  it  ain't;  I'd  rather 
laugh  with  the  sinners  than  cry  with  the 
saints,  the  sinners  are  much  more  fun  - 
you  know  that  only  the  good  die 
young.' 

"I  think  this  line  is  so  relevant  to  being 
In  college.  It  says,  live  It  up  -  you're  In 
college;  now  is  the  time  to  have  fun.' 
Since  I'm  going  to  be  here  for  ten  years 
(ha,ha)  anyway,  I  might  as  well  live  It 
up!" 

But  surrounding  the  personal  growth 
and  social  discovery  that  makes  the 
Maryland  experience  unique  was  the 
difficult  reality  of  attending  a  state 
university  in  a  time  of  government  fun- 
ding crunches.  Kapsilis  commented  on 
a  line  from  Joel's  namesake  classic, 
"Piano  Man,"  that  addressed  the 
frustrations  of  many  students  who  wor- 
ried about  not  graduating  on  time. 

"When  he  says,  '...and  I'm  sure  that  I 
could  be  a  moviestar,  if  I  could  get  out 
of  this  place,'  that  relates  to  Maryland 
because  a  lot  of  people  honestly  feel 
like  they're  never  going  to  get  out  of 
here,"  Kapsilis  said.  "Five  year  programs 
are  turning  into  six  year  programs.  It's 
kind  of  ridiculous.  I  think  they  want  to 
keep  us  here  longer." 


Ah,  romance.  You  know,  the  feeling 
in  the  pit  of  your  stomach  when  that 
magical  pair  of  sparkling  blue  eyes 
winks  in  your  direction  from  across  the 
room.  When  a  dozen  red  roses  land  on 
your  doorstep.  When  your  significant 
other  squeezes  your  hand  tight  and 
whispers  those  three  special  words. 

Ask  a  million  people  and  you'll  get  a 
million  different  definitions  of  love,  if 
love  can  be  defined  at  all.  Many  have 
noticed  that  Bad  Company's  "Feel  Like 
Makin'  Love"  arouses  that  un- 
mistakable tingle  in  their  hearts;  here's 
what  one  individual  had  to  say  about 
the  song. 

"College  is  a  time  when  you  find  out 
what  really  mokes  you  happy  in  life, 
when  things  start  to  fall  into  place. 
There's  this  one  line  in  the  song  (above) 
that  soys,  "Baby,  if  I  think  about  you  I 
think  about  love;  darlin'  if  I  lived  without 
you,  I'd  live  without  love,'"  said 
sophomore  biology  major  Dru 
McHenry.  "I  think  that  line  says  a  lot 
about  love  and  what  it  feels  like  to  be 
in  love." 


"In  his  song  called,  7he  River,'  Garth 
Brooks  says,  "So  don't  you  sit  upon  the 
shoreline  and  say  you're  satisfied;  choose 
to  chance  the  rapids  and  dare  to  dance 
the  tide.' 

"I  think  he's  telling  people  to  take  what 
you've  learned  and  apply  it.Jo  do 
something  v\/ith  you're  life.  Don't  just  think 
about  something  -  go  out  and  do  it. 

"In  his  songs,  such  as  the  The  Dance,' 
Garth  Brooks  gets  emotional  about  things 
from  his  past.  It's  like  he's  trying  to  say  that  if 
something  v^ere  to  happen  to  him,  he 
v\/ouldn't  have  had  the  chance  to  say  what 
he  felt  to  all  the  people  he  knew  loved  him, 
like  his  wife.  So  he  says  what  he's  feeling 
now  -  don't  sit  by  the  shoreline,"

1992  Terrapin 


Standing,  from  left:  Ben  Werner,  Kathleen  McGuire.  Tonya  Whitfield,  Corliss  Hill,  Beht  Panitz,  Kara  Schmidt  and 
Paul  Vieira,  Sitting:  Tamara  Gronet,  Krista  Parker  and  Meredith  Tcherniovsky. 


The  1992  Terrapin  started  in  February  of 
1991  with  an  entirely  new  staff  and  an  air 
of  uncertainty.  Could  a  novice  staff  pro- 
duce a  300  plus  page  yearbook?  Was 
there  any  way  possible  to  cover  every 
aspect  of  University  life? 

Armed  with  determination  and  con- 
fidence, that  is  what  the  Terrapin  '92  staff 
set  out  to  do.  The  theme,  "A  Mark  of 
Distinction,'  was  chosen  by  editor-in-chief, 
Krista  Parker. 

In  this  theme,  we  hoped  to  highlight  all 
of  the  distinct  aspects  that  make  the 
University  of  Maryland  special. 

In  doing  this,  the  staff  tried  not  to  dwell 
on  the  setbacks  and  shortfalls  University 
of  Maryland  suffered,  but  to  focus  on  the 
unusual  and  outstanding  aspects. 

To  capture  every  single,  unique  aspect 
of  such  a  large  University  is  virtually  im- 
possible. We  tried  to  cover  some  things 


that  seem  to  have  been  overlooked  in 
past  years.  Thus  we  added  a  Resident  Life 
section  as  well  as  split  the  Organizations 
section  into  two  different  sections:  Greek 
and  Organizations.  This  was  done  to  allow 
for  greater  coverage  of  both  aspects  of 
University  life. 

We  hope  that  in  our  effort  to  Increase 
coverage,  we  touched  on  just  about 
everything,  and  did  not  blindly  omit 
everyone. 

The  Terrapin  '92  staff  would  like  to  say 
congratulations  to  all  of  this  years' 
graduating  seniors.  We  also  wont  to  say 
thank  you,  goodbye  and  good  luck  to 
the  staffs'  graduating  seniors:  Tamara 
Gronet,  Beth  Panitz  and  Kathleen 
McGuire.  Thanks  for  everything,  and  we 
hope  that  you  enjoy  this  book  as  much  as 
we  do.

Editors  Pa^e 


As  I  sat  down  to  write  ttiis  farewell  of  sorts,  I  realized  that  I  am 
following  a  tradition  that  I  never  found  any  use  for  in  yearbooks. 
Now,  I  realize  that  to  thank  the  amount  of  people  I  want  to  thank, 
in  person,  would  take  forever.  So  I  decided  to  stay  true  to  tradi- 
tion and  write  all  the  emotional  thank  yous  that  many  editors 
before  me  have  done. 

First  of  all,  I  would  like  to  thank  the  Maryland  Media  Inc.  Board 
for  taking  a  chance,  and  giving  me  the  opportunity  to  do  this 
project.  It  has  been  a  great  experience  -  one  that  I  will  never 
forget. 

I  would  also  like  to  thank  Michael  Fribush  for  all  the  answers  and 
odvice  and  most  of  all,  his  patience.  Thanks  to  Nancy  French  for 
the  support  and  endless  stream  of  supplies,  to  Polly  Monke  for 
making  the  ads  look  great,  and  to  Robin  Baulch  for  helping  me 
get  used  to  all  the  paste-up  and  typesetting  equipment. 

Tanya  O.,  you  ore  a  true  friend.  How  can  I  ever  thank  you  for  all 
of  the  support  and  encouragement  that  you  gave  me  when  I 
was  ready  to  quit.  I  will  never  forget  the  'special'  flower,  all  the 
Diet  Cokes,  support  and  help  you  have  given  me  over  this  year.  I 
appreciate  it  more  than  you  know. 

Tomaro,  you  are  the  typesetting  queen!  I  hope  that  you  know 
how  much  I  really  appreciate  all  of  the  time  you  spent  on  this 
book.  Thanks  for  listening  to  all  of  my  problems  with  decisions  and 
with  people.  I  only  wish  I  could  have  gotten  to  know  you  sooner.  I 
need  a  true  shopping  buddy,  and  you  are  the  best  at  that,  too.  I 
hope  that  this  book  means  as  much  to  you  as  it  does  to  me.  You 
will  be  missed  next  year,  probably  more  than  you  know.  "Don't 
Stress!" 

Meredith,  thanks  for  stepping  in  whenever  we  needed  you.  You 
are  the  staff's  Renaissance  Woman.  Words  cannot  describe  how 
thankful  I  am  for  all  your  help  and  advice.  How  many  jobs  did  you 
really  do,  25?  I  hope  that  you  stick  around.  You  are  the  best. 

Tonya  Lothem,  thanks  for  putting  up  with  Ben.  Just  kidding!  I 
hope  that  you  get  to  see  this  book,  otter  all  of  the  hard  work  that 
you  put  in.  Good  luck  in  your  new  life  in  CA  and  I  hope  that  you 
don't  forget  me  when  you  become  famous.  I  might  need  your 
help  with  connections  some  day.  I  hope  to  see  you  on  the  big 
screen  soon. 

Ben,   thanks   for   always   making   me   lough,   even   though 


sometimes  I  guess  I  did't  understand  what  I  was  laughing  at. 
Sometimes  I  was  laughing  at  your  ideas.  You  had  the  knack  for 
always  catching  me  off  guard.  I  never  knew  quite  what  you  were 
going  to  do  or  soy.  But,  I  guess  that's  what  mode  it  fun.  I  might  sur- 
prise you  and  actually  approve  one  of  your  outrageous  ideas. 
Thanks  for  making  my  job  fun. 

Laurie,  thanks  so  much  for  stepping  in  at  the  lost  minute  and 
taking  on  a  mess.  I  really  appreciate  the  time  you  spent  and  all 
the  cleaning  you  did.  I  don't  know  what  we  would  have  done 
without  you.  Indye,  Maggie,  and  Paul,  thanks  so  much  for  helping 
with  deadlines.  Without  you,  I  don't  think  this  book  would  have 
happened. 

Adam  and  Kathleen,  thanks  for  consistently  writing  great 
stories.  Adam,  even  if  you  think  that  you  can't  write,  I  love  all  the 
stories.  Gino,  I  cannot  believe  that  we  made  it.  Thanks  for  taking 
on  what  might  be  a  monstrous  job,  without  having  oclue  as  to 
what  was  going  on.  You  did  a  great  job  and  the  sections  look 
awesome. 

To  the  Diamondbock  photographers,  especially  Lee,  thanks  for 
the  pictures  and  all  the  help  when  I  was  in  dire  need  of  a 
photography  editor.  I  really  appreciate  it.  To  all  the  writers,  thank 
you  for  you  outstanding  stories  and  for  adding  so  much  to  the 
book.  When  I  wanted  more  copy,  you  provided  it.  Even  though  I 
didn't  see  a  lot  of  you  much.  I  really  appreciate  all  the  time  and 
effort  you  put  in  to  help  me  add  copy  to  the  book. 

Beth,  thanks  for  everything.  You  did  a  great  job  and  I  really  ap- 
preciate it.  I  will  miss  you  next  year. 

To  all  the  photographers,  I  wouldn't  forget  you.  Thanks  for  be- 
ing the  "eyes'  of  my  'baby.'  I  couldn't  hove  done  this  without  you. 
Celio,  your  shots  and  prints  were  amazing.  You  have  a  great  eye. 
I  really  appreciate  all  of  the  hours  you  spent  on  the  job  for  me. 

To  everyone  else,  if  I  forgot  you,  I  am  truly  sorry.  I  hope  I  did  not 
leave  anyone  out. 

Last,  but  not  least.  Mom  and  Dad,  thanks  for  your  support,  en- 
couragement and  most  of  all,  love.  Thanks  for  having  faith  in  me. 
too.  I  really  couln't  have  done  this  without  you. 

I  truly  hope  that  this  book  embodies  the  distinct  aspects  of  the 
University  of  Maryland  as  I  hod  hoped,  and  that  it  means  as  much 
to  the  1992  grads  as  it  does  to  me.  Thanks  for  a  great  year!! 


The  1991-92  school  year  came  to  an 
end  just  like  those  before.  This  past  year 
brought  about  many  changes  both  good 
and  bad  that  marked  the  University  for 
future  classes  to  come. 

At  the  top  of  the  list  were  the  enormous 
amounts  of  budget  cuts  that  crashed 
over  the  camopus  in  wave  after  wave  of 
cutbacks.  These  cutbacks  were  designed 
to  help  the  state  adhere  to  a  new 
budget. 

Cutbacks  ranged  from  tuition  increases 
to  class  cancelations  and  from  professors 
being  fired  to  the  termination  of  various 
programs  of  study. 

In  reaction  to  the  cutbacks,  students 
and  teachers  alike  joined  together  to 
protest  the  dramatic  changes.  Protests 
took  place  both  here  on  the  College  Park 
campus  as  well  as  at  the  State  House  in 
Annapolis. 

In  sports,  the  Terps  face  a  few  rough 
times  as  well.  Both  the  football  and  the 
men's  basketball  teams  were  plagued  by 
injuries  and  adversity. 

Terp  head  football  coach,  Joe  Krivak 
resigned  after  a  disappointing  season 
and  the  athletic  department  hired  Holy 
Cross  football  coach,  Mark  Duffner  to 
head  the  Terp  team. 

On  the  other  side  of  the  spectrum, 
women's  sports  teams  began  to  get  the 
attention  that  they  hove  long  deserved. 
The  Lady  Terps  Basketball  Team  surprised 
just  about  everyone  in  the  country  by 
capturing  the  number  one  ranking  in  the 
country,  by  defeating  former  number 
one  University  of  Virginia  in  front  of  a  sold 
out  Virginia  crowd. 

The  Terp  Field  Hockey  team  had  a 
great  year  as  well.  They  returned  to  the 
NCAA  Championship  game  before  bow- 
ing out. 

The  campus  also  underwent  a  facelife 
of  sorts  in  the  past  year.  Many  new 
buildings  were  completed  and  others 
were  just  under  construction  at  year's 
end.  Still  others  underwent  minor,  or  major 
renovations. 

No  matter  who  you  were  or  what  you 
did,  the  past  year  at  the  University  of 
Maryland  left  a  Mark  of  Distinction  on 
everyone's  lives.

their  space. 

The  Terrapin  staff  would  like  to  thank  the  Diomondbock 
photographers  for  the  great  condids  and  the  staff  of  the
