Located just 40 mi. south of Baltimore and 15 mi. out-
side of Washington D.C., where there are hundreds of
museams, restaurants and shops, it is easy to see why
students at the University of Maryland have such busy
schedules. Students don't even have to go that far tr
find entertainment: restaurants, bars, clubs and shop
ping are just seconds away from campus on Route 1
not to mention the movie theater, bowling alley am
numerous places to eat on campus.

EMMA
The University Theatre has had a great year!
The first show of the 1998-99 school year was
"Emma," a play by Michael Fry based on the novel
by Jane Austen. It showed in Pugliese Theatre on
February 11-22, 1998-99. It is a comic clash be-
tween romance and independence by one of the
world's most charming and successfial authors. The
play was directed by Nick Olcott who commented,
"My overall image of this play is a dance. People in
the play form pairs, move together, separate and move
on". He describes the play as a faithful adaptation
of the Jane Austen novel, which focuses on the eco-
nomic and social place of marriage. David Cannon
of "The Montgomery County Sentinel" wrote,
"['Emma' is] the first unabashed success of 1998,
and a perfect Valentine's Day present.

piece of contemporary theatre and features some of
the best acting challenges imaginable. "Its spirit of
warmth and humanity speaks to all audiences", said
Tom Prewitt, director of the performance. The pro-
duction is about five sisters and their poignant
struggle to survive and find happiness despite eco-
nomic and social obstacles. The play is set in

University Theatre at the Universit>' of Mary-

translated by Bernard Fretchman. Performances were
in the Pugliese Theatre April 29-MaylO. "The play
deals with culture's obsession with spying, voyeur-
ism and celebrit>'," mentioned the director, Michael
Oliver. The play is a Theatre of the Absurd play and
the playwright alters perceptible reality to create a
new and often startling world. Oliver commented,
"You can invent the situation. With playwrights like
Jean Genet, you're free to create your own logic. We
don't have enough surprises in the theatre- Theatre
of the Absurd creates surprises." The set design was
done by Bruce Lindsay, a recent Maryland graduate.

The World Goes Round

The spring 99 theatre season opened with the
musical revue, "The World Goes 'Round" October
1 5-24 in Tawes Theatre. The play spotlights the best
songs of John Kander and Fred Ebb and was con-
ceived by Scott Ellis, Susan Stroman, and David
Thompson. Jane Pesci-Townsend, director, com-
mented, "Kander and Ebb's most recognizable songs
are showtunes at their most glitzy American best.
Yet the characters behind the songs aren't all glitzy-
Kander and Ebb's songs are about simple people
having deep emotions just like everyone else." The
scene designer for the University production was
Raye Leith and the costume design was done by John
Davies, a master of Fine Arts student.

The bittersweet drama, "The Seagull" was
presented November 1 1-22 in Pugliese Theatre. The
production is a Russian drama of ambition, talent,
and unrequited love, written by Anton Chekhov and
translated by Kristin Johnsen-Neshati. The director,
Zeljko Djukic, noted, "It's extremely cruel, hopeless
but funny, emotional. [The characters] often say one
thing, think another, and do something third- that of
course, brings humor. For the most part the charac-
ters are arrogant, mean, cruel, stupid, selfish. Seem-
ingly, there's nothing special about them- but what's
fascinating is the fact that each character had a soul
that bears a secret of their own life." According to
Leonard Hughes of The Washington Post, "The
Seagull" found every chance to bring the comedy
out of Chekov's script" and was "in many
ways... spectacular."

This play is an interesting
mix of humor and pathos," said
Catherine Schuler, director of the
production. "The irony of twins
who are from the same womb yet
opposite sides of the political
)ectrum make the play some-
thing of a political farce. Picture
someone with the politics of a
Jesse Helms or an Arianna
Huffington thrown together with
Gloria Steinem for life.
"Paula Vogel is witty play-
wright who writes some incred-
ibly witty dialogue, yet the play is
no piece of fluff. It offers a reflec-
tion of the politics of hatred, the
depiction of the culture wars, and
how the two sisters respond to it."

Board of Regents Announce Appointment of
Mote as President of University
University System of
Maryland (USM) Board of Re-
gents Chairman Lance W.
Billingsley announced June 2nd,
the appointment of Dr. Clayton
Daniel "Dan" Mote, Jr. as the 27th
president of the University of
Maryland starting in September.
Mote comes to Maryland
from the University of California,
Berkeley, where he was Vice
Chancellor of University Rela-
tions, President of the UC Berke-
ley Foundation, and held an en-
dowed chair in Mechanical Sys-
tems. As the new president of Uni-
versity of Maryland, Mote re-
places Dr. William E. "Brit"
Kirwan, who assumedf the presi-
dency of Ohio State University on
July 1.
"The Regents could not be
more pleased with this appoint-
ment," said Bilhngsley. "Dr. Mote
brings to the University of Mary-
land the national stature, record of
accomplishment, and leadership
abilities to build on Brit Kirwan's
legacy and to propel this institu-
tion into the top tier of American
research universities. A man of
impeccable credentials, he is
widely recognized for his ability
to form strategic alUances between
the academy and the community.
I can think of no one better to take
over the helm of our flagship uni-
versity."
Mote, 6 1 , was named to the
Vice Chancellor's position and
foundation presidency at UC Ber-
keley in 1 99 1 . In those capacities,
he has been responsible for work-
ing with the university's external
constituencies through a variety of
programs, including fund raising,
government relations, publica-
tions, and public information. In
1992 he launched a comprehen-
sive, campus-wide cam paign to
raise $1.1 billion in private sup-
port by the year 2000.
From 1987 to 1991, Mote
served as chair of Berkeley's De-
partment of Mechanical Engineer-
ing, leading the department to its
number one ranking in the Na-
tional Research Council review of
graduate program effectiveness.
He came to Berkeley in 1967 af-
ter three years on the faculty of
Carnegie Institute of Technology.
He has held research positions at
the University of Birmingham, the
Norwegian Institute for Wood Sci-
ence and Technology, the Techni-
cal University of Darmstadt, and
the Tokyo Institute of Technology.
His technical expertise is in
the areas of dynamic systems, in-
strumentation, vibration, and bio-
mechanics. He is internationally
recognized for his research on gy-
roscopic systems. His work on the
biomechanics of skiing injury has
yielded 300 publications as well
as patents in the U.S., Norway,
Finland, and Sweden.
Among his numerous hon-
ors. Mote has received research
fellowships from the National Sci-
ence Foundation and from the
Royal Norwegian Council for Sci-
entific and Industrial Research. In
197 1 the University of Cahfomia,
Berkeley gave him its Distin-
guished Teacher Award. In 1988
he was elected to the National
Academy of Engineering in the
U.S. and was awarded the
Humboldt Prize by the Federal
Republic of Germany. In 1997
Mote was chosen Honorary Mem-
ber of the American Society of
Mechanical Engineers, the high-
est award bestowed by this soci-
ety, for exemplary accomplish-
ments in the course of his career.
Mote holds B.S. and M.S.
desrees in mechanical ensineer-
ing and a Ph.D. in engineering me-
chanics, all from the University of
California, Berkeley.

Alcohol-Free Fun
Eighty-eight percent of all college
students, including those under the legal
drinking age, have used alcohol and 44 per-
cent had engaged in binge drinking during
the two weeks prior to the 1997 survey by
The Bacchus and Gamma Peer Education
Network. The survey also found that binge
drinkers were 16 times more likely than non-
binge drinkers to miss class, damage prop-
erty and get injured.
But here at the the University of
Maryland, planning fun alcohol-free activi-
ties on weekends is a priority. Every year a
"Spring Party Challenge" encourages stu-
dent groups to throw alcohol-free parties.
Organizers of the best party get $300 and
two runners-up each get $100. Some of the
best have had themes centered around car-
nivals, elementary school recess, tropical
islands and jazz.
As coordinator of "Weekends at
Maryland," Amy Duhaime plans alcohol-free
holiday theme parties, bus trips to nearby
museums and sporting events, hiking trips
and other interesting activities. She also
serves as a clearinghouse for all weekend
campus activities, providing a weekly list of
weekend events. Duhaime says the bus trips
have gotten rave reviews.
Other off-campus possibilities for
alcohol-free fun are included in a booklet
called Where the Good Times Are. The pub-
lication is produced by the Washington Area
Drug Prevention Consortium of Higher Educa-
tion, consisting of 13 institutions of higher edu-
cation in the Washington, D.C. area, including
the University of Maryland, American Univer-
sity, The Catholic University of America, George
Mason University, Georgetown University and
others. The publication lists many alcohol-free
activities, establishments and events that the
area has to offer college students, such as gour-
met dessert and coffee houses; billiards, skat-
ing, golfing and bowling centers; theaters; parks;
and general tourist attractions.
A survey done by the University of
Maryland shows that about 30 percent of stu-
dents would prefer to socialize without alcohol.
Says Grad-Lynch, "We do everything we can to
support this 30 percent" .

Halloween
Halloween has been and will al-
ways be a day for tapping into that split
personality of yours. Whether it involves
dressing up as a space alien, a she-devil,
or one of the South Park kids you put ef-
fort into and become that personality.
Once the outfit is complete, it is the actual
destination that makes or brakes the
evening. For little children going door to
door begging for tooth-rotting candy will
do, but for college students it involves
music, alcohol, and members of the oppo-
site sex.
If you are apart of the large Greek
system here on campus then a fraternity
party or two will do the "trick." Delta Tau
Delta and Sigma Chi threw two large Hal-
loween parties. One had a band with tunes
from the eighties and today while the other
one had it"s house lit up with black lights
accenting it's techno/ alien theme. Many
parties were also running wild at the Knox
Towers. Knox Boxes, and Guilford Rd.
Anywhere you went involved some kind
of encounter with an individual scarier than
the guy who sat next to you in Bio 105 did.
If staying on campus is not scary
enough for you. a trip into DC or Balti-
more will surely help to fulfil your need
for festive, scary fun. Every Halloween
most of "M" street in Georgetown is
blocked off and seas of drunken people
dressed in crazy costumes fill the bars
drinking, singing, and frightening one
another. You can see waves of people
stumble from one bar to another singing
songs like Michael Jackson's "Thriller"
and "The Monster Mash" throughout the
night. Fells Point in Baltimore is also a
great place to go, for its bars are crammed
with loud and oddly dressed people as
well. They are decorated accordingly and
have loud music to fill the packed streets
and allies.
Full moon or not, Halloween here
at Maryland is a perfect opportunity for
students to let down their hair or put on a
wig and dress up like when they were chil-
dren again. The difference between Hal-
loween now and when we were children
is instead of going door to door to see
who can get the most candy, now we jump
from bar to bar and party to party, to see
who can have the most fun.

Good Morning America Visits UMD
At 7:00 am on Friday, Octo-
ber 23rd, in 43 degree weather, about
500 students, faculty and staff were
at the east end of McKeldin Mall wait-
ing for the "Good Morning America"
taping to start.
The program opened witha
shot of Memorial Chapel and focused
on prosepective students and what
goes into choosing the right college.
ABC producers sought a major pub-
lic university that had diverse student
programs, a diverse student body and
opportunities for eye-cactching tele-
vision footage. Segment correspon-
dent Bob Woodruff said Good Morn-
ing America chose to broadcast from
campus because of its academic repu-
tation.
Hosts Lisa McRee and Kevin
Newman anchored the two-hour
broadcast from rocking chairs at the
end of the fountain. ABC weather
forcaster Spencer Christian will host
sgments from Byrd Stadium where the
marching band, members of Delta
Sigma Theta Sorority, Inc. and an en-
semble from the dance program will
all preporm for a live national audi-
ence.
The broadcast is expected to
increase insterest in the univerity from
across the country. Undergraduate
admissions believes the show was an
excellent public relations move for
campus.

Traveling Across Campus
It's 8 am and you are waking
up from a restful night's sleep of 3
hours. Unfortunately, since the ever-
popular Shuttle UM fails to run dur-
ing the day, you must find alternate
transportation to and from classes.
Walking would seem to be the logical
choice, but some people think there
are better ways. Skateboarding,
roUerblading, driving, bicycling, and
even unicycling are some of the re-
sponses we have encountered.
As most have experienced.
driving to class can take more time
than it saves. Here at Maryland,
pedestrians rule the campus, and
waiting at the many stop signs and
crosswalks on campus drive can
take an eternity. Once you arrive
at your parking lot or garage of
choice, the hunt for a good spot
is on. Anything goes to avoid the
dreaded lot 4-even risking an all
too frequent parking ticket. Those
campus parking tickets seem
harmless but you had better keep
track of them, you could rack up
a steep bill.
Bicyclists zoom through
campus seemingly ready to crash
into unsuspecting walkers. Skate-
boarding and roUerblading are two
of the more challenging modes of
transportation, especially with pe-
destrians crowding the walkways.
Walking is the most favored method
of travel around campus. It may be
a huge school, but students are al-
ways sure to recognize a few friends
walking around during the day.

Terps Soar at Sports
University of Maryland today
achieved one of the major department goals
of the Deborah A. Yow era by earning inclu-
sion in the top 20 of the Sears Directors' Cup,
the national Division I all-sports ranking.
In final standings released by the
National Association of Collegiate Directors
of Athletics, the Terrapins' athletic program
was ranked tied for 19th out of 306 Division
I schools. It is the highest finish for the Terps
since the rankings began five years ago, and
Maryland's 38-position jump from the No.
57 spot in the final 1994-95 rankings is the
greatest in that time period by a school not
previously ranked in the top 25. The Terps'
previous best was 48th, in 1993-94.
"This is exciting news for every-
one associated with the University of
Maryland's athletic program — student-ath-
letes, coaches, staff, alumni and boosters,"
said Yow, who is beginning her fifth year as
director of athletics. "Reaching the top 25
has been a long-standing goal for all of
us, and today we can take pride in the fact
that despite budgetary obstacles, we main-
tained our focus and achieved as a depart-
ment what we set out to do. I can also say
that while we are extremely proud of today's
ranking, not one person in our athletic fam-
ily is satisfied with where we are or inter-
ested in resting on our laurels. Our aim is
to keep progressing to the point we be-
come a fixture in the top 10. We'll settle for
nothing less."
Since the end of Yow's first full
year as athletic director, when the Terps
finished 57th in the Sears Directors' Cup,
Maryland has made steady progress in the
rankings. The Terps jumped 21 spots (to
36th) in Yow's second year, then climbed
four more spots (to No. 32) after her third
year. Today's ranking reflects a 13-spot
jump from a year ago and a 38-position
climb since her first year at Maryland.
All told, Maryland scored points
in 1 1 of its 24 sports: women's lacrosse (100),
men's lacrosse (80), men's basketball (30),
field hockey (20), men's soccer (20), volley-
ball (20), gymnastics (20), women's soccer
(10), wrestling (10), men's swinmiing (10),
women's tennis (10).
"This ranking shows we are headed
in the right direction in putting together a
consistently successful and broad-based
program," says Yow. "Our aim is to provide
all of our programs the tools necessary to
compete at the highest level. Only then will
we fully reahze the University of Maryland's
true potential."
Said field hockey coach Missy
Meharg: "This is serious evidence of a per-
formance plan. Debbie Yow's perspective on
this has challenged us all to perform."

Friends, Fun, and Memories
Friends are what make our years in col-
lege the best years of our lives. From late
nights sitting around talking or going out
to parties they have shared so much with
us. They are the ones who already heard
the stories you tell, but laugh at them any-
way. Sometimes, it seems aO of your per-
sonalities have combined into one over
the past years. You cry together,
laugh together, and can always pre-
dict the other's next move. Now the
time has come for the fun years of col-
lege to end, and everyone to move on
with their lives. You want to panic.
You don't want to lose these invalu-
able people who have filled your life.
Then, you realize you don't have to.
Memories of these years are numberous
and invaluable. Things you see or hear
every day will remind you of your
firiends. That's how they will brighten
your day, even though they can't be
there. Never forget the memories of
your friends.

The Route
Standing on the comer of Knox
Road and Baltimore Avenue, I breathe in
the faint scent of onions and peppers fry-
ing on a grill, of bubbling mozzarella cheese
melting in the oven at Ratsie's. I hear some
faint C.C.R. playing around the comer and
a deep, pounding bass on the street. Stu-
dents of all ages pass by me; some are
headed home to a tiny little shack on
Dickinson and others are off to their eight-
hour shift at the Fe. Behind me, two fresh-
man girls gawk and giggle at the fratemity
guys who are on their way to happy hour at
R.J. Bentley's. And then, smoky, pungent
fumes encircle me and the crunching grind
of shifting gears overpowers the pounding
bass and I am left standing in a pool of real-
ity as the delivery truck speeds away. I am
standing on the comer of the Route. Route
1, that is.
Route 1 offers all any college stu-
dent craves everything body, mind, and
spirit altering. Vendors on the Route pro-
vide access to the freshmen 15 via eateries
like Cluck-U and Danny's. The Bagel Place
is hoppin' around lunchtime, the Smoothie
King is the healthy way to go, (and they
have good service!) And what would any
cool college town be without a ReRun and
an outlet like Adidas? Apparently, not Col-
lege Park. From poetry readings to watch-
ing a Terp basketball game on the big
screen, the activities on Route 1 enrich the
mind and the spirit. So besides eating, shop-
ping, and relaxing, what else is there to do?
Well, you could get your bike fixed, your
film processed in one hour, or go out for a
night on the town. Route I's nightly social
gatherings provide the perfect experience for
one's 21" birthday bar tour. Terrapin Sta-
tion, R.J. Bentley's, Comerstone, Santa Fe,
and the Loft, render music, fun drinks, and
good times for all of those of age.
All that packed into a few blocks in
a small college town on the edge of Mary-
land. These few blocks that are the perfect
way to start the weekend on Thursday night
and are only a few steps away from campus.
This huge mix-mash of some thirty thousand
students share at least two things in com-
mon: the University of Maryland at College
Park and the Route. Route 1, that is.

Breaking Free
College is supposed to be fun,
right? We are here to study a chosen field
and obtain a degree, but besides that there
are memories to be made, hearts to be bro-
ken, and a nightlife to be lived. Some of us
get sick of doing all that in the same town
and on the same campus so.... let's break
free!
One of the cheaper and easier op-
tions for college students is a road trip. The
open road creates open possibilities for end-
less good times and fun. Sports fans? Try
driving to the next away game or getting tick-
ets to see one of the nearby professional
teams. Club frequenter? Let the metro whisk
you away to D.C. 's wide selection of swing,
jazz, and rave clubs. Like to brave the trails?
Visit Great Falls in Maryland or Virginia for
beautiful scenery and some fun hiking.
Searching for a wild party? Look up some
friends at neighboring schools like Ameri-
can, George Mason, Loyola, or Towson.
Want to get away from the four walls of the
classroom? D.C.'s political scene and
Baltimore's business industry offer many
internships for the asking. Ski bunny? Hit
the slopes at Whitetail, Wisp, or Ski Liberty.
Close-by cities, neighboring schools, and the
surrounding outdoors let students get off
campus and out of College Park for new and
different experiences. Breaking free brings
a touch of the university life to the outside
world and gives students to meet new people,
find better times, and live an even better
nightUfe!

Skipping School
LaPlata Beach? What college
campus has a beach on it? Only at the
University of Maryland, College Park
where year-round the volleyball court is
set up for students to play anytime they
please. Oh, don't forget our pools, both
inside and out, where often you will find
kayak or two paddling down the lane.
With these options who needs to go to
class. Classes? Oh yeah, the reason our
parents originally sent us here. Mary-
land has made every effort to keep us
around campus (and out of classes) as
long as possible with as many activities
as they could find. Do you remember
your first tour of campus? McKeldin was
the largest mall, measuring to beat out
the competition right down to the last
inch. Just the more room for the frisbees
to fly, dogs to run, and friends to sit and chat?
Whatever it takes to keep out of the classroom.
For those who would rather go out
than sleep in Cole Field House for tickets, you
could catch the Maryland Basketball Games at
the Hoff. Although those sixteen hours of
sleeping upright just to see a game were fun,
someone had the idea to make it easier for the
students. Movies and documentaries would
play at other times to entertain students, while
the theatres in town would entice us with re-
duced admissions to their shows. For those
who wanted to cuddle up with a loved one, or
just too lazy to sit in the theatre. Route 1 offered
a multitude of video rental stores where you
could find your own movie.
Among the video stores. Route 1 was
the quickest stop to find your own personal
Cheers. Everybody knew you name because
you spend all of your Thursday nights there,
your Friday aftemoons, and Saturday nights.
The battle of the drink specials would win
your attention until you found the spot where
you and all of your friends met ritually. Re-
member the Cellar? Oh, you mean the sta-
tion, but we're too old for there now. Do you
remember the first time you stepped off Route
1 and onto Knox road to declare your new
found Cheers? Don't forget all the fun you
had sitting out front making fun of the fresh-
men who walked past fraternity row, dying to
find a party.
With all the things to do while at
Maryland it's amazing that we actually make
it to our classes at all.

Saying Goodbye
"I just don't like the way it feels, I
mean, sure I know I have to. but I don't like
to," said George Frick as we \\ alked across
the mall. "It's one of those things that people
get all worked up about, and I don't want
to. I pretend it'll never happen to me. and
when it does. I'll just deal with it then." It's
one thing we will all ha\ e to do. w hether
it's someone we just met. or someone we've
known for years. Commencement is ap-
proaching and we all are going to have to
say goodbye. (Wliat else do you think this
was about?) UTien we left the dorms, we
struggled to keep in touch with our old floor
When we mov ed off to Knox or out to the
Towers, we made the effort to call or meet
people on campus and in between classes.
Now that graduation is here, we are faced
with the hardest task, keeping touch. Col-
lege here has made such an impact on our
social li\ es that the memories we made w ill
be the toughest ones to recapture in any other
place, but as educated adults, we strive to
beat the circumstances.
Take vour last walk around the
campus, and rub Testudo's nose just one last
time. Eat at the dining halls, complaining
how horrible it is the w hole time. Go through
the Zoo Psych building and get lost all over
again... that is if you e\er figured it out in
the first place. Lasih; walk the Union and
its endless corridors and remember how it is
now. Soon it'll all be changed and the only
thing you'll ha\ e to remember it how it was
is your memories and the mark it left in your
life.

RESIDENT
7,900 University of Maryland students live in 36 resi-
dence halls. Of these students, 71% live in traditional
dornis, 15% live in fully equipped apartments, and
14% live in suites. A primary goal for the residence
hall staff is to promote academic excellence by indi-
vidual resident students. They can help students suc-
ceed by providing supportive academe services, fa-
cilities and programs.
.'r^.'
Food for Thought
Picture this. . .. You are sitting up-
stairs at home in your bedroom. Five thirty
rolls around and your mom yells up that
dinner is ready. You venture down the
stairs, through'the hall, pass the living
room, and wander into the kitchen filled
with the heavenly scent of lasagna, for the
second time in one week. "Can't we eat
something different, somewhere different
tonight?" you ask. "Of course not," your
mother responds. "We don't have the
money to eat out whenever you feel like it.
And besides, you liked this lasagna last
Thursday." Someone get me out of here!
Now, picture this.... You are sit-
ting on the third floor of Elkton hall in your
dorm room. Six o'clock rolls around and
your roommate yells from next door that
you'd better get to the dining hall soon
since it closes at seven. You venture into
the hall, take the elevator down, walk
through the courtyard and into the dining
hall. Aromas of pizza, deli sandwiches, and
spaghetti lay heavily on the air. Pizza, deli
sandwiches, and spaghetti for the third
time in two weeks. You look at your room-
mates and ask if they want to order Papa
John's instead. "Are you crazy?!" they
answer, "We're saving our last ten bucks
so we can go out tonight!" Sound famil-
iar?
You see, eating as a college stu-
dent isn't always all that different from eat-
ing at home. Let's use some logic: when
do you go home? Thanksgiving? Holi-
days? Spring break? Of course we will be
babied with our favorite foods for the few
days we are home. And, after we are
gone.... yikes! I feel bad for the rest of the
family. Besides, it doesn't have to be
Denton dining hall food that you eat.
There's dinner to be had at Ellicott, South
Campus, and the Union. For those who
live off campus or in South Hill apartments,
there are endless possibilities for the mi-
crowave and coupon clipping. For the
very few who wander into the world of sit-
down dining, there is Adele's in the Union
and a few of the local eateries are restau-
rants by day and bars by night. Whether
eating on campus or off, keep in mind that
the options are greater than home.

An "Ivy League Experience" at Bargain Prices
The University of Maryland's Hon-
ors Program got another feather in its cap
as U.S. News and World Report's 12th an-
nual guide to "America's Best Colleges"
focused its spotlight on places where out-
standing students can get "a top-quality edu-
cation at a bargain price." "The best honors
programs offer an Ivy League experience at
less than half the price," the magazine pro-
claimed in the lead to the story about hon-
ors programs at Maryland, the University
of Georgia and the University of Texas at
Austin. Among the hundreds of honors pro-
grams offered by universities across the
United States, "the best are found at large
state-supported universities," the magazine
said. "We have worked tirelessly over the
past years to construct an academic program
in Honors that is both rigorous and imagi-
native," said Sandy Mack, director of Uni-
versity Honors at Maryland. "The U.S. News
article confirms what our students are tell-
ing us: we are succeeding."
Students are sending that message
in several ways, including comments from
several in the U.S. News article, which men-
tions Nurit Schmerler, who chose Maryland
over Columbia; .lennifer Wolbransky, who
turned down the University of Pennsylvania
in favor of College Park; and Luke Currano,
who picked Maryland in spite of an offer
from the Massachusetts Institute of Technol-
ogy-
Currano, a mechanical engineer
participating in the Honors Program's inno-
vative Gemstone program with students from
a variety of disciplines, said he and his Gem-
stone teammates plan to propose "something
new that no one else has thought of when
they report on their four-year mass-transit
project.
"The quality of Honors students has
soared over the past few years," Mack notes.
The middle half of this year's freshman Hon-
ors students had SAT scores ranging from
1360 to 1460, on par with mid-range stu-
dents at Penn, Columbia, Brown and
Baltimore's Johns Hopkins University.
"These are the greatest young people to work
with," Mack said.
As for the bargain part of the equa-
tion, resident tuition at Maryland this year
is $4,699, and non-resident tuition is
$ II ,22 1 , compared with $30,000 or more at
the nation's most selective private institu-
tions.

A Home Away From Home
There are ways to ease the tran-
sition from home to college life and mak-
ing a dorm room more like home is one of
them. One of the first things students do
when the come to Maryland, is get to-
gether with their roomates to design and
decorate their dorm room. The first per-
son to arrive in the room assigned to them
in the dorms sees four pale, empty,
cinderblock walls. It doesn't look too in-
viting, but with a little time and creativity
you can make your own little comfortable
place.
Julie Davis decorated her dresser
with photos of her family and golden re-
triever. She also brought a stuffed animal
resembling her dog, a gift from her grand-
mother. "The photos are on my dresser,
in a place where I can see them everyday.
I have a great relationship with my family,
and the pictures help me feel closer to them
and less homesick," said Davis, who like
many new students also had colleges of
high school friends decorating the walls.
Peter Kang, a journalism major,
helped start a town paper. He was sad to
leave his publication, but was excited when
his parents started sending him copies of
the paper. Says Kang, "I was thrilled to be
able to watch my hometown publication
grow and keep up with what was going on
at home". Like most students, Kang had a
very busy schedule and had a hard time
keeping in touch with his parents and tell-
ing them what was going on around cam-
pus. Kang followed his parents' idea and
got them a subscription to the Diamond-
back. They could learn what was going on
in Maryland without even speaking to Pe-
ter.
Their are many thing you can do
to make your dorm room more 'homely'.
You could hang tapestries, posters, cur-
tains, purchase cooridinating bed linens,
or carpets. But just remember, dorm rooms
are small. Be sure to bring only what is
necessary to avoid an overcroweded and
cramped room. Many students also rent
refridgerators to make their rooms seem
more like home. With a little creativity,
your once plain and empty dorm room can
turn into a comfortable place to study, re-
lax, and a great place to unwind with your
new friends.

Party? Maybe Not.
Throughout your high school years,
you paint an elaborate image of what you
believe college to be. The image resembles
something like a huge party. Loud music
constantly blaring in the background of ev-
erywhere you go. A million kegs scattered
across campus.
It is not until you come to UMD
that your exciting little image is shattered.
You learn there is a rule banning kegs on
campus. Within the dormitories, there are
quiet hours forcing you to turn you music
down after certain hours. With no where else
to turn you look to the bars, to remember
that you have 16 months until you can le-
gally patronize one of those establishments.
Therefore, your long and grueling search for
the perfect fake id begins.
After hunting for weeks, possibly
months you get you hands on some excuse
of an id. You are still not put to ease. Every
trip to the bar initials much memorization.
As you quickly try to remember all of the
information on your id, your stomach fills
with butterflies. A denial could be sheer
embarrassment. Just as you proudly recite
your false information to the bouncer, a
friend walks by calling you by your "real"
name. The buncer, whoyou just gave a dif-
ferent name to, smirks and hands you back
your ID.
As quickly as you can you walk
away- hoping that no one you know saw
your tragic denial. You begin to wonder:
what is so great about those hot, cramped
places anyway? You can barely move around
enough to mingle, and rarely leave without
a cigarette bum somewhere on your body.
It is a given that at some point within the
night beer will be spilt on you. most likely
on your brand new pants. And we cannot
forget the unannounced visits from the liquor
board that scare everyone half to death.
In the end, we discover that college
is just not what we had thought it was cracked
up to be. We never realized the fiin we would
have talking until all hours of the morning
and laughing when friends who had, at least
for that night, managed to convince some-
one that they were, if fact 2 1 . The reality of
college is a lot different than how you first
pictured it. But you realize that college
doesn't have to be like Animal House for
you to have a good time and make great
memories.

This Is Definitely Not High School
Professors probably won't tell you
which part of the lecture is most important
or what's going to be on the test, and there
generally will be less interaction with the
professor during class. You will be ex-
pected to learn more, and learn more diffi-
cult things. You're definitely going to need
to study harder and smarter. And since you
or your parents are paying for this, you re-
ally better pay attention and not waste that
money. No, you're definitely not in high
school anymore, but with a few time man-
agement and study tips, you'll do fine.
Firts, organize your time on paper,
using a weekly schedule, to-do lists and
similar aids. Know your "prime time" — the
time you are most productive - and sched-
ule the most difficult work for then. Spend
enough time studying. For math, science,
computer science and language classes,
expect to spend 7 to 10 hours per week per
course studying, for history, English, so-
cial science classes and others, expect to
spend 3 to 6 hours per week per course
studying. Take lecture notes on 8 1/2 x 1 1
paper, and within 24 hours of the lecture
prepare your notes for review by writing
cues in the left-hand margin, personal notes
in the right-hand margin, and by giving em-
phasis to important points with underlin-
ing, brackets, arrows or asterisks. At the
end of each section of notes, write a sum-
mary of key points. Notes should be re-
viewed within 24 hours after taking them,
before the next class, at the end of the week,
and several times prior to the exam. When
reviewing textbooks, use the SQ3R method
(survey the material, ask yourself ques-
tions based on the survey, read the mate-
rial to answer your questions, recite impor-
tant points, and review). As you are re-
viewing, ask yourself questions about the
material. Produce essay and other types of
questions that could appear on a test. Cre-
ate study aids for comprehensive review.
These aids can take the form of summaries,
charts, maps, outlines or index card
prompts. Form study groups to clarify ma-
terial and review for exams. Connect with
your professors and teaching assistants to
ask questions about lecture content, future
and past exams, etc. Review past exams —
those you've taken as well as those taken
by others in previous years. Analyze ques-
tions you missed and plan new study strat-
egies for the next exam. Take advantage of
campus resources such as learning/study
skills centers, writing centers, math tutor-
ing, counseling centers, career centers, etc.
Use the summer prior to college to improve
academic skills by taking courses in read-
ing comprehension, math, writing, etc.
In high school sometimes you
could just 'get by' with some help from your
friends. You missed a class here and then,
but chances are your parents wouldn't let
you stay home if you had anything less
than pnemonia. While at college, you are
(for the most part) independent, and are
trusted to make wise deicisons. It's a lot of
fun to go out to the bars on Tuesday
nights, or to stay up all night with your
friends laughing and watching movies. But
the night before a 9:00 am exam is probably
not the best time for that. So use just some
of these helpful study tips to improve your
grades and impress your parents. Just re-
member the most important study tip: don't
forget to show up at class.

The Fabled "Freshman 15"
According to the National College
Youth Risk Behavior Survey, twenty per-
cent of college students are overweight and
40 percent are attempting to lose weight.
What are these statistics saying about
weight trends on campus?
According to Lori Wiersema, a nu-
tritionist at the University of Maryland's
Health Center, the amount of weight the av-
erage college freshman will gain has risen
from 5 to 10 pounds to 10 to 15 pounds. She
says that students are gaining excess weight
because they use food late at night for rec-
reational or social purposes. "Students will
often eat late at night while visiting with
friends to avoid studying, not because they
are hungry," Wiersema said.
Wiersema's advice for avoiding the
dreaded "freshman 15" is simple: Keep up
with the physical activity that you did in
high school, or at least replace it with some
other type of physical activity, walk to class
instead of getting a ride or taking the shuttle
(do you really need a ride to Jimenez from
the dorms?), skip desserts and excess
breads at meal times. Try to cut down on
high calorie drinks such as soda and juice
(avoid the 32-ounce cups and learn to drink
smaller beverage portions), avoid fried
foods, take advantage of the salad bar where
there are many low-fat food selections such
as fresh vegetables, fruit and protein
sources, eat frequently but in small
amounts, don't skip breakfeast, it really is
the most important meal of the day (eating
low fat protien and starches helps increase
the body's metabolic rate and helps control
weight gain ), and lower your intake of alco-
hol and be aware of the late night
"munchies" that usually occur after a night
of drinking.
It is possible to graduate from col-
lege with the same figure (or something
close to it), that you had when you first
came here. All it takes is a little effort and
some awareness. Just plan a routine where
you eat healthy and exercise regularly (like
every week after happy hour).

When the School of Architecture opened its doors in 1967, its founders had the fore-
sight to plan for the future. Along with the establishment of the school, the construction of its
own facilities, resources were set aside for the procurement for an architectural library that
today ranks among the top in the nation. Coupled with the National Trust for Historic Preser-
vation Library, virtually anything on the topic of architecture is easily accessible. Also in the
School is the Elizabeth Alley Visual Resource Collection which is one of the best teaching
collections of slides and visual materials available nationally.
The School of Architecture offers a four year imdergraduate program which mini-
mizes the time required to complete the curriculum and leads to a Bachelor of Science de-
gree. The graduate program leads to a professional degree of Master in Architecture. The
program is uniquely small with some twenty faculty and two hundred students in the large
university and one of the nation's largest and metropolitan centers and historic regions. The
people who study in this school come from vastly different backgrounds at different stages
of life maturity. This enhances the program, as the study of architecture includes the sharing
of past experiences and developing knowledge as it is brought to bear on studio design
projects.
Architecture students receive rigorous and comprehensive instruction from a faculty
whose members are actively involved in professional practice or research, many of whom
have distinguished themselves across the professional spectrum and represent different
approaches to architectural design. Individual areas of expertise include architectural de-
sign and theory, history, architectural archaeology, technology, urban design and planning,
and historic preservation. The faculty provides the students with the requisite exposure to
contemporary realities of architectural design through visiting critics, lecturers, and the Kea
Distinguished Professor. The facilities, resources and faculty are competitive with the best
in the nation and world. Design recognition and academic acknowledgement of the success
of the alunmi, faculty and students attest to the excellence the school has achieved.
The B.S. degree in architecture will qualify graduates to pvursue a career in any number of
fields or to continue graduate work in professional fields such as architecture, urban plan-
ning or law.

BSOS is the largest college on campus with diversity and exciting. These offer students the
opportunity to explore many aspects of human society and behavior while complementing a broad
liberal arts education, which serves as a foundation for understanding the environmental, social
and cultural forces that shape our world.
The College is composed of a diverse group of nine disciplines in total. At the heart of the
behavioral and social sciences there is an attempt to understand human beings, both individually
and collectively. Disciphnes in the behavioral and social sciences apply methods ranging from
the scientific to the philosophical and from the experimental to the theoretical. Integral to all
disciphnes is the development and apphcation of problem solving skills, which in combination
with other academic skills enable students to think analytically and commimicate clearly and per-
suasively. Students interested in himian behavior and solving human and social problems will find
many exciting opportxmities through the programs and courses offered.

sponsibihty to conduct strong research programs that contribute to the ad\ancement of knowledge and strives
to foster a close partnership with industr>' and government as it reaches out to the campus conamunit}' and the
community at large with its services.
The engineering course work is a hands-on apphcation of working in teams to solve real-life problems with real-life
budgets and production schedules. Students apply what they learn in class to the design and construction of projects
that illustrate basic engineering concepts, higenuity. creati\itv' and teamwork are basic ingredients for successful projects,
and the students are among the most talented and motivated at the University. By the second year these students begin
to make choices about what they want to study in depth and choose interdisciplinary specialties like smart structures,
biological resource engineering, environmental engineering, rehabihty or the development of new materials . Through-
out the curriculum the students are involved with projects and competitions that have brought awards and recognition to
every department: solar-powered cars, hybrid electric vehicles, walking robots, concrete canoes and toboggans, and
environmental design projects.

FIELDHOCKEY
With the youngest team in the ACC and one of the youngest
teams in school history, Maryland (16-6, 3-1 ACC) captured
its second-ever ACC championship and advanced to the
quarterfinals of the NCAA Tournament for the fourth consecu-
tive year. What makes the Terps 1998 accompUshments all the
more impressive is that they had only two upperclassmen in
their starting lineup on a consistent basis this season and only
three returning starters from last season. Senior back Jen Pratt
and senior forward Kasey Heiser were the only upperclassmen
who were consistently in Marylands starting lineup. Pratt,
sophomore midfielder Carla Tagliente and sophomore forward
Keli Smith were the only returning starters from the 1997 squad.
Maryland had only four upperclassmen on the team this sea-
son, including Pratt, Heiser, senior midfielder Ellen Wolf and
junior forward Emily Ward. With a 3-0 victory over Massa-
chusetts, field hockey coach Missy Meharg became the field
hockey program's all-time winningest coach in Terp history.

another national championship. It sets the tone for the squad to
continue its amazing success of the 90"s. The team enters the 1999
season with the most wins in the nation in theis decade ( 1 42) and the
highest winning percentage (.922) since 1990. Maryland welcomes
back seven starters and 16 letterwinners from a 1998 squad that

Counseling Center
Director: Dr.Vivian Boyd
As in years past,
Maryland students dealing
with a variety of personal,
social, career, and aca-
demic issues found sup-
port at the Counseling Cen-
ter. In individual counsel-
ing, students discovered
that seeking help is a sign
of strength as they ex-
plored a range of issues
that included self-esteem,
stress, relationships, sex,
family problems, and mak-
ing career decisions.
In workshops and
group counseling, students
met with others who had
similar problems, inter-
ests, and goals. The Coun-
seling Center offered
weekly support groups that
addressed a wide variety of
topics, such as career ex-
ploration, dissertation sup-
port, procrastination pre-
vention, and stress man-
agement. Group offerings
included, "Caught in the
Net," a support group for
reducing dependency on e-
mail and the Internet;
"Circle of Sisters," a sup-
port group for black
women; and "Women,
Food, and Obsession with
Thinness," which ad-
dressed problems of body
image and eating. Consul-
tation, counseling and child
testing also were provided
to parents, single parents,
andtheirchildren.
Careercounseling
also helped students who
were choosing a major, es-
tablishing career goals,
and considering job oppor-

who helped them en-

reading, writing, note-
Workshop topics in-
cluded study skills,
exam skills, time man-

versation, end-of-se-
mester survival skills,
and completing theses
and dissertations. Many
students who were back
in school after a break in
their formal education
took advantage of the
counseling helped these
students make the tran-
sition to academic life.
The Counseling
Center also provided
services for students
with disabilities, includ-
ing help in locating inter-
preters for deaf or hard-
of-hearing students;
readers for visually-im-
paired students, blind
students, and students
with learning disabilities;
and assistance with ac-
cess to various buildings
and facilities on campus.
In the Counseling Center's
Testing Office, students
took tests that related to
the work they were doing in
counseling, such as ex-
ploring their career inter-
ests. Others took national
standardized tests admin-
istered by the Testing Of-
fice, such as the GRE,
LSAT, MCAT, GMAT, and
Miller Analogies. Re-
search assistance and in-
dividual consultation were
provided to students with
questions about research
design and statistics and
writing project proposals,
theses, and dissertations.
It was a busy and
productive year in the
Counseling Center. From
individual and family coun-
seling growth groups, and
academic skills */ork-
shops, to career interest
testing, disability support,
and research assistance,
the services provided by

staff reached a wide range
of Maryland students in

Department of Campus Parking
Director: J. David Allen
The Department of
Campus Parking continues to
strive towards meeting its
goal of responding to the
parking needs of the Univer-
sity of Maryland College
Park campus. In addition to
visitors to the campus, the
department is charged the
task of providing parking
for more than 40,000 student
and faculty/staff members.
This responsibility in-
cludes the issuance of
55,000 parking permits
yearly, and the collection
of fees associated with
these permit; meter mainte-
nance and collection; the
management and upkeep of
parking lots and garages;
and fair and consistent en-
forcement.
In order to familiar-
ize the campus community
with these programs information
is disseminated through articles
in the Diamondback, brochures,
the Campus Parking Homepage
on the web-site,
yearly updates
of the parking
rules and regu-
lations, cam-
pus parking
maps, and at-
tendance at
various cam-
pus activities
(i.e. fairs, work-
shops, etc.)
In re-
sponse to the
needs of the campus community,
the PIT Crew continues to offer
assistance to motorist for lock-
outs, flats, jumpstarts and gas
runs. In addition, our most recent
efforts have been the installation
of electronic meters throughout
the campus and the introduction
of the meter debit card. The
electronic meters work in con-
junction with the Meter Debit
Card and ac-
cept coins as
well. These
new meters
have cut down
on the amount
of time spent
repairing
meters due to
foreign ob-
jects being in-
serted into
them in place
of coins. They
also secure
more accurate time. The intro-
duction of the meter debit card
eliminates the need to carry
coins around to pay the meter.
The card can be replenished at
he CTS machine located in the
lobby of the Department of Cam-
pus Parking. Another feature is
that the user is able to put more
time on the meter than neces-
sary and retrieve unused time (in
30 minute increments) back
onto the card.
The opening of the two cashier
attended parking facilities, Sta-
dium drive Garage and the Col-
onnade Drive Visitor Pay Lot.
Stadium Drive Garage offers an
additional 600 spaces for the
students and 200 for visitors.
The Colonnade Drive Visitor
Pay Lot, the most popular of the
two, has 145 pace and is used
by visitors as well as students
that may have business in or
near the Van Munching area.
Easy access to their destina-
tion, and the fact that there is an
attendant on the lot, makes
parking at Colonnade worth the
$1.00 per hour parking fee
charged.

GREEK
The Greek community gives students the chance to
make a big campus small. The chapter serves as a
place where friends become family, and the friendships
last a lifetime. Fraternities and sororities also give mei^
bers the opportunity to network with alumni and intej
act with mentors who have made a successful transi-
tion from college to the work force. The Greek com-
munity prides itself on the opportunities it provides
students for leadership development. Academics and
scholarship are ideals upon which Greek organizations
are founded, and students' academic responsibilities
unquestionably receive the highest priority. Chapters
at UMCP sponsor and participate in more community
service and fund raising activities than other student
organizations, raising over $90,000 annually for vari-
ous philanthropies and providing hundreds of hours
for community service each year. J[

Alpha Sigma Phi was founded at Yale University on December 6, 1845. To this day, the fraternity has stayed
close to its idealistic and scholarly roots. The tenth oldest fraternity in the United States, Alpha Sig prides itself
on its rugged individualism and its mission "to better the man." Alpha Sigma Phi nationally boasts a strong and
cohesive web of Alpha Sig chapters from coast to coast at a wide range of schools. The Colony at the Univer-
sity of Maryland will soon be the youngest of 125 chapters.
Alpha Sig at Maryland was begun last year by a group of students who desired to bring out and focus on the
positive aspects of fraternal life and enhance them. This group of Founding Fathers wanted a brotherhood
where gentlemenship, academic success, personal growth and leadership played an integral role. Alpha Sig has
become a brotherhood of individuals working together towards their common goals. The fraternity is very
diversified. They boast that this brotherhood is even closer knit because of the diversity among their brothers.

Some people think that big houses, extensive social calendars and active alumni support are what makes a
house successful. These are not the causes, but rather the results of a successful chapter. Delta Chi has been on
campus for nine years, preserved through four address changes and currently resides in a structure housing 30
members. In terms of social calendars, there's something to do every weekend, be it a party, date function, etc.
Delta Chi's alumni are actively involved in chapter operations and house improvements.
Delta Chi is made of various personalities, ideas and traditions, looking to reach the one goal of brotherhood.
Delta Chi offers many opportunities to succeed at what one does best, be it leadership, academics or creativity.
Delta Chi's associate member and active member programming help to build character, academic responsibil-
ity, and self confidence. Delta Chi stresses fratemalism through individualism, for without the individual, the
fraternity would not exist. Delta Chi's associate members are not molded, they are brothers waiting to be
unfolded.
Delta Chi encourages it's member to develop to their fullest potential, and has dedicated itself to the goal of
"Personal Growth Through Brotherhood." Delta Chi invites you to come take a look.

In 1888, four women attending Boston University chose not to join the women's fraternities akeady on campus but to
form their own instead- a society whose purpose was to "estabhsh a perpetual bond of friendship" and whose members
would be "kind alike to all". Their fraternity Delta Delta Delta, was founded on Thanksgiving Eve in 1888.
Today, the Alpha Pi chapter of Tri Delta is a strong presence at Maryland, both on and off campus. Annually the sisters
of the fraternity sponsor fundraising events to profit children's cancer charities. Their philanthropy is the Lombardi
Cancer Center- an art therapy program for pediatric oncology patients.
Enthusiasm for both Greek and campus involvement is what places Tri Delta among the top sororities both locally and
nationally. Delta Delta Delta was awarded the President's Cup for the 1996-1997 and 1997-1998 academic years. This
award is given to the most outstanding sorority which best envisions the ideals of the Greek system.
Tri Deltas share a close relationship with neighboring tratemities and sororities. They take pride in being diversified and
well rounded. Members participate in a variety of organizations both on and off campus, including Order of Omega,
Omicron Delta Kappa, SGA, Maryland Images, Judicial board. Women's Lacrosse, Panhellenic Association, and honor

Delta Gamma started in 1 873 in Oxford, Mississippi, when three girls unable to go home for Christmas break

Maryland has firm beliefs in academic excellence, community service, and leadership opportunities and cam-
pus development. Their main philanthropic event is to aid the blind and sight conservation. Members partici-

During the fall semester of 1 899 at the City College of New York, several high school classmates found
themselves renewing their friendships as college freshmen. These men soon realized that no existing fraternity
would accept them due to their religious differences. They say no reason that differences in religion, race, or
creed dictated who were quality men. On December 10,1899 they decided to found a fraternity that embodied
their ideals of equality, loyalty, and brotherhood-Delta Sigma Phi.
The notion that quality men come in all forms, regardless of race, backgrounds, and religion is still the core
belief of the Alpha Sigma chapter here at the University of Maryland. Through the cultivation of life long
friendships and the recognition of Delta Sigma Phi's founding fathers' beliefs, the brothers of the Alpha Sigma
chapter have prospered both individually and collectively. Delta Sigma Phi offers a tradition of excellence in
community, leadership, athletics, philanthropy, and social involvement within the Greek system ad the com-
munity. Motivation, self-enhancement, acceptance, and brotherhood are the key elements of the experience of
the bond at Alpha Sigma chapter.
It's not enough to be good, for those who aspire to be GREAT!

As the doors of Gamma Phi Beta again open to the house located at Nine Fraternity Row the doors of opportu-
nity open also for the women of Gamma Phi. The house was closed in early 1990's for remodeling, but now
with the dust cleared the women of Gamma Phi are ready to reclaim their beloved structure.
Not having a house for a period of time has truly taught the women of Gamma Phi many valuable lessons.
Without a structure to call their own, women of Gamma Phi were forced to search inside themselves to find the
true meaning of sisterhood. The women learned that sisterhood is not the house in which you live or the
possessions that you have, but that the true meaning of sisterhood is the love and loyalty that you share for each
other.
The sisters in Gamma Phi experience a very busy social schedule. Besides formal and dated parties, Greek
Week and Homecoming, the sisters of Gamma Phi also enjoy big and little sister events, crescent sister events,
parents weekend events, and many community activities.
The sisters of Gamma Phi not only cherish the loyalty that they have for each other but also diversity within
their sorority. Every sister in Gamma Phi has a quality of characteristic that is uniquely hers. Within the walls
of Gamma Phi you will find friendships that will last a lifetime and bonds that will never be broken.

Let's face it. sororities often carry with them an image of women who act alike, talk alike, dress alike and ha\'e
no sense of indi\idualit\'. But as a Maryland woman, we know that's not you. As women of Kappa Alpha
Theta, that is not us either Founded in 1 870 as the first Greek letter fraternity for women (we're older than the
word sorority), the original mission of Theta was to unify the individual strength of it's members.
Theta 's are involved in a wide variety of activities. Panhellenic Association, Order of Omega, various honor
societies, Maryland Dance Team, Lacrosse Team, Field Hockey Team, Cheerleading, Honors, and Scholars
programs are only a few. Theta's will fill up our social calendars with weekend tailgates and parties, winter
and spring formals, dated parties, destination unknown, dinners, sisterhood events. Homecoming and Greek
week { we were the 1997 o\erall Greek week winners!) . Theta always has something going on, and Theta's
sisterhood spirit is the best!
Theta has and always will continue to celebrate strong, visionary women, and demand the best of ourselves
academically, socially, and civically. Theta's are a diverse group of women yet, the members of Kappa Alpha
Theta are a loyal group of sisters. Theta's laugh together during the good times and lend a shoulder through the
tough times. Theta sisterhood lasts beyond graduation; it unites us for a lifetime. And Kappa Alpha Theta

The brothers of the Maryland Alpha chapter enjoy a strong brotherhood filled with rich traditions. Phi Delta
Theta was founded in December of 1 848 at Miami of Ohio by six men with lofty ideals and high morals. These
ideals and morals are what the men of Phi Delta Theta at Mar\land strive to replicate. WTiether it be through
scholarship, athletics, philanthropy or friendship with Phi Delta Theta brothers. Phi Delta Theta is consistently
the premiere fraternity in College Park. The "Gentlemen's Fraternity." our national nickname, is something
we hold with great honor and respect as we act accordingly to preserve its history. The Mar>'land Alpha
Chapter was founded on Nov. 11, 1930 and since then boasts 1600 proud alumni. Throughout the US and
Canada, Phi Delta Theta has initiated over 200,000 members. Prominent initiated men include Lou Gehrig,
Neil Armstrong, Senator Dennis Deloncini and Detlef Schrempf.
The active chapter consists of dedicated brothers and our house provides occupancy for half of them. Phi Delta
Theta's chapter house underwent a million dollar renovation two years ago. Nearly $800,000 of this was raised
solely through donations from generous Maryland Phi Delt alumni.

Originally founded as an alternative to traditional fraternities, the Beta Omicron Chapter of Phi Kappa Tau
maintains those ideals by stressing brotherhood, scholastic leadership and indi\ iduality. Nationally, the Phi
Tau family spans across the nation to 134 colleges and universities, providing strong alumni support. Locally,
the Phi Kappa Tau chapter is growing stronger every semester. In 1996-199. membership grew 1 10'7f as we
walked off with Greek Life's "Program of the Year" for our philanthropy project, "House of Michael Myers."
It is a goal of all Phi Taus not to lose sight of why they are here- for an education. The current brotherhood
boasts two brothers with full academic scholarships, as well as six members on the Dean's list.
A Phi Tau is also molded for future leadership success. The Phi Kappa Tau National president. Greg Holden,
is an alumnus of Beta Omicron here at Maryland while Paul Newman is an alumnus of the Beta Chapter at
Ohio University. Current Phi Taus are taking steps in the right direction as our brothers are acti\ e in the Greek
system, varsity wrestling, varsity tennis, varsity swimming. Golf Course Superintendents Association of .Ajnerica,
The Diamondback, and the Honors Program.
One of the greatest fears of non-Greeks is that they will cease to be themselves if they join a fraternity. At Phi
Kappa Tau, we stress individuality. Phi Kappa Tau's goal is not carbon copied brothers, but a diverse group of
men who will each contribute to the fraternity in theu" own way. If everyone in the fraternity has the same
qualities no one will have gained anything from the experience. But, by ha\ing brothers with different at-
tributes, a Phi Tau graduates a better scholar, a better leader, and a better individual.

In 1856, at the University of Alabama in Tuscaloosa, a young Alabamian named Noble Leslie DeVotie and his
seven closest friends founded Sigma Alpha Epsilon. From those humble beginnings Sigma Alpha Epsilon has
grown and been through many difficulties. Only five months after the creation of SAE, the University of
Alabama abolished fraternities. The original chapter of SAE was forced to disband 1 8 months later, fortunately
SAE had expanded to six other colleges in that time.
Since SAE was founded at Maryland in 1943, they have been a group of truly secure and confident men who
posses superior qualities such as knowledge, leadership, athletic ability, and high self esteem. SAE's enjoy
theme parties, dated parties, and formals. They are involved in a variety of campus activities and continually
support their national philanthropy, a clothing drive for the homeless.

Park Greek life for the past 58 years. SAM is known on campus as one of the best all-around fraternities which
stresses excellence in academics and athletics.
Academics are first and foremost at Sigma Alpha Mu Fraternity. This year SAM has implemented a new
scholarship program which will help increase GPA's throughout the house. Athletically, SAM is one of the
most competitive fraternities in the Greek system. SAM has active brothers who are currently involved on
both the hockey and tennis teams. SAM's are also known for their full length basketball court and it's ideal
location. The court is used annually for SAM's "Bounce for Beats," 3 on 3 basketball tournament which
benefits the Pediatric AIDS Foundation.
Socially, Sigma Alpha Mu has no equal. Their calendar is always filled with parties, happy hours, and dated parties.
The highUght of last year's calendar was the away weekend at the Cavalier Hotel in Virginia Beach.
Last and most of all, Sigma Alpha Mu is recognized for it's strong brotherhood throughout the college commu-
nity. Remember, brotherhood follows you everywhere.

basketball championships. Theta Chi football, soccer, softball and basketball annually campaign for their respective titles. Theta Chi

The first Dutch euro coins, with a portrait of
Queen Beatrix, are presented at the
Nertherlands Mint in Utrecht, Dec. 8, 1998.
The euro coins share a common European de-

on the other. To the eur-zone's 270 million
people the currency will remain largely a phan-
tom currency until coins and banknotes hit the
streets in 2002. But for businesses and gov-
ernments, the euro will be an immediate reality

Ride the Turtle
"Thousands of students walk though cam-
pus daily, and while most of them won't ven-
ture into McKeldin Library, they will take a
detour and purposely walkright past it. Why
go though all that trouble just to walk past it?
To see Testudo, of course. Many students
rub the Diamondback Terrapin's nose as they
walk past, but as our yearbook staff mem-
bers noted during exam time, many students
gave Testudo a little extra attention.
Take a closer look, the staff noticed that
UMD students would do almost anything
hoping Testudo would give them some help
on their upcoming exams. But then again,
some people need a little more help than oth-
ers."
