Rising to the Occasion

With the beginning of another semester, we are greeted with different classes, new syllabi, per- haps a new room and an opportu- nity to meet the upcoming chal- lenges of the year. For freshmen, they are entering a whole new world to explore while upperclass- men bring the experience and knowledge of years past into their everyday activities.

Also new this year was the addition of our president, Dr. Ted Long and his wife, Betty, to the Elizabethtown College community. They have both graciously given their time and have repeatedly exemplified the E-town spirit through their involvement with the student body.

With Dr. Long as our new leader, and the dedicated members of our faculty and staff to guide us, we will be able to face all of the challenges of the upcoming year and succeed. From sports to activi- ties, from residence life to academ- ics, each one of us, in our own way, will rise to the occasion and meet the challenges of both Elizabeth- town College and our personal goals.

-Craig Bertz and Jodi Brandon

I! mil!! Occasion

There's no doubt that college is a great place with many campus-spon- sored events, activities and organiza- tions to keep students busy when they aren't in classes. But there are also times when we just need to relax, hang out with friends or do something completely unrelated to academia. It is a chance to escape from classes and professors, books and studying. What students choose to do in these times are some of the most important and fun moments of their college lives. Weekends are great for this type of thing, as well as birthdays and holidays.

So what else is there to do? How about getting off campus for a while, maybe to go out for a bite to eat or do some shopping? If there is more time available, everyone should take a few road trips in their life. Some people prefer to work out b y partici- pating in intramural sports with friends and hallmates, while others are perfectly content to congregate and watch "Must See TV."

However students choose to fill their time, before they know it classes and finals are over and it's time to pack up and head home for a vacation, the ultimate time for stu- dents to have some time to spend however they choose.

the Jfiest Time of the ijear

S*i s you sit finishing / I your last final exam / L of the spring sem- ester, thoughts of sun, surf and sand fill your mind. Wow, you think to yourself, another year has flown by and it's time for summer! You gather all your sacred belongings and pack them tightly into your car without leaving an inch of space. Choruses of "Have a great summer!" echo through the dorms as you venture to begin what is sure to be the best summer you've ever had.

E-town students spent their four-month summer vacation in a variety of ways. Some baked their bodies at the shore while others worked to earn as much extra spending cash

as possible. Some students stayed on campus to take classes or work while others traveled the globe, getting as far away from Elizabeth- town as possible. Still others stayed close to home, getting reacquainted with old high school friends. Of course, the summer would not have been complete without staying in touch with college friends— and not just via letters and phone calls. Several students took long, exciting and once-in-a- lifetime road trips.

As the summer wound down, many students dreaded returning to classes while the rest couldn't wait to return for another year of good times at E-town.

Summer Vacation

^rieindlij Competition

For all those students with athletic desire outside of the varsity teams comes the widely popular intramurals. Over sixty- five percent of the Eliza- bethtown student body participates in the intramurals program.

Intramurals offer stu- dents the opportunity to showcase their "overlooked" talents or to just have a little fun with their favorite sports. Some teams even included their favorite professors in the mix as added bonding experience between students and faculty. Men's basketball coach Bob Schlosser acts as the advisor to the intramurals program, overseeing all events.

Intramurals are avail- able for just about every

varsity sport on campus, but soccer and basketball received the most interest this year. Basketball had thirty-eight teams alone! Senior Mike Burke, captain of the champion soccer team, reflected on the sea- son by saying how exciting it was for his team to win. All championship-winning teams are rewarded for their efforts with official championship t-shirts.

Intramurals also showed students using creativity when selecting team names and uniform fashion. For example, the "Fuzzy Na- vels" wore shirts with the navel area cut out.

What it comes down to is good fun with peers and professors— and sometimes even a little exercise, too. -Aaron Marvel

By the time Friday rolls around, everyone is usually ready for the weekend and a chance to relax for a couple of days. Actually, most people are ready for Friday as early as Monday or Tuesday. Finally it arrives-- time to sleep in, hang out and procrastinate.

Some work off the stress of the week by going out to dances, clubs, coffeehouses and comedians. Others find a trip to the mall to be a sure cure for stress. Still other students, who are not up for all that running around, stay in the dorms to sleep in and then stay up late, order pizza and watch movies. Some make their rooms a bit more liveable by cleaning and decorating.

There is always the option of having friends come to visit giving you the

best of both worlds-college and home. Once every so often, there is a hall pro- gram going on-decorating the hall, dinner or a trip of some sort that gives hall- mates the chance to get to know each other better. And yes, unfortunately, there are even those times when you have to use the weekend to catch up on all the work you should have done all week long but didn't.

While everyone may have different ideas of how best to spend their week- end, one would think that it is safe to say that Friday, Saturday and Sunday come as a welcome break to all, no matter how we spend them.

During the week, I am very busy, running around between classes and meetings. I look forward to week- ends because of their slower pace, allowing me to do what I want, when I want. There is always some- thing to do on or off campus.

Like all good things weekends must come to an end too. Sunday afternoon is the most dreaded part of the week- end because it means "Time to get back to work!" But, as the weekend comes to a close and another jammed packed week begins, thoughts of next weekend's plans already begin brewing.

Varying Experiences

Despite our busy lives, we all find some way or another to build some sort of fitness into them. We may not all be aerobics instructors, but many of us take the classes to stay in shape. We may not all play varsity sports, but many of us play on intramural teams.

Our campus provides many outlets for us to stay fit, both formally and informally. Varsity athletic teams get a daily dose of exercise in their practice sessions, for example. At the same time, there is the Body Shop for students who want to work out on their own time, doing the type of exercise they choose for themselves. Other students prefer grabbing a friend and going for a run through campus or into town.

These are the more traditional types of fitness

which we associate exercise with. Fitness is more than just gym class or doing situps, though; it provides an outlet by which we relieve stress and forget about schoolwork and problems for a while. We can work out alone, with a friend or with a group of friends. It can be struc- tured, such as intramurals, or spur of the moment, such as a pick-up game of basket- ball in the gym.

When the weather gets nice, students seem to turn into fitness freaks on this campus. People are outside everywhere from morning till night, throwing a frisbee, rollerblading or going for a walk. No matter how, when, where or with whom we choose to exercise, E-town students always seem to find a way to bring fitness into our lives.

Crunches are made easier and I'm able to do more from the twenty I can do normally to the two hundred I can doo with the ab machine. This increase in crunches makes me feel better about myself. By pushing my stamina, I rid myself of troubles and I feel ready to tackle anything. -Christina Davis

14 Off-Campus Eateries

What's for Dimmer?

I know how everyone hates it but sometimes you just can't avoid it-you have to eat someplace other than the caf. Your parents might come to visit and they insist on going out. Or it could be the weekend and you finally have the time to go. Maybe it is someone's birthday or another special occasion. Maybe friends are working there. More commonly, students just want a change of scenery from the caf and campus in general.

Whatever the reason, there are lots of yummy alternatives to choose from nearby for all kinds of tastes and situations. Is it two in the morning on a weeknight and you are absolutely starving? Go to Taco Bell. Are you just generally short on cash?

Again, try Taco Bell, or even McDonalds or Burger King (don't forget that 10% discount with your student ID!).

If you want something a little nicer that is still near- by try Hoss's or Hennigan's. If you have the extra cash and you are willing to gas up the car, there are always a lot of choices in Lancaster or Harrisburg, such as the Olive Garden, TGIFriday's or Red Lobster.

No matter where you go or why you go off campus for a bite to eat, it always proves to be a better option than baked mahi mahi at the caf. Unless it's chicken fingers for lunch, the caf can always be visited for a meal some other time.

-Renee Gladfelter

Kevin Gardiner isn't so sure that his lobster is really ready for eat- ing-it looks like it's still moving!

Going off- campus to eat allows me to temporarily escape the stresses of life here at E-town. When our bud- gets allow us to eat off-campus, my friends and I enjoy going to the Carousel to share a milk- shake or our favorite place to dine, the Olive Garden. No one can beat their salad and bread- sticks.

Overall, it is just a way to get off campus and enjoy time with your friends in a more relaxed atmosphere. The only part we dread is knowing we must come back to the work we left behind.

the Lime of Terror

Let's face it. Registra- tion really has gotten a bad rap on this campus. We moan and groan when we see those white preregistra- tion schedules in our mailboxes, thinking, "Didn't we just do this?" Much of the complaints come from the underclassmen who can't seem to find an open 200-level core class to save their lives. Ah, the good ol' days! Once we are seniors, though, and can get into the classes we want, we're taking such specific and upper-level courses that no one but us would want to get in them!

Waiting in the preregis- tration line for hours on end just to pick a number out of the little can giving you a registration time is always a treat. The person in front of you always draws a higher number than you. Or worse yet, you draw a

good time, but you have class at that time, so they keep bumping you back until you're registering at a lousy time. It's never a tough class during that slot either; it's always one of those classes with no atten- dance policy where all the prof is doing is reviewing anyway. That just adds to students' frustration.

After we go through all the chaos to pick our classes and we get a copy of our schedules, that's still not it. We come back each semes- ter to that maze in the gym where we fill out the same papers we've been filling out since fall semester freshmen year. Perhaps computer- based registration is some- thing E-town should look into. It seems to work at other schools, and maybe there would even be less student complaints— maybe. -Jodi Brandon

Unlike most students, I never really had many problems sched- uling my classes. I of course hated the waiting in line only to find out a class I really wanted was gone, but I found that if I had about thirty alternate courses listed, one would eventually fit. This was irritat- ing at first, but I soon learned that a wide array of classes gave me a much broader scope in my education. I choose a small liberal arts college with both its inherent benefits and downsides. I learned to look at this downside as a way to enter various intellec- tual areas.

lo Holiday Spirit

the Most Wonderful Time

Along with the ice cold weather comes, for most, one of the most exciting and joyous times of the year: the holiday season. Many stu- dents went all our with their spirit this year, deco- rating their rooms and halls with twinkling and blinking lights, bells, mistletoe and sometimes even real trees.

Aside from the decorat- ing, many special activities occurred during the holiday season before we packed up and headed home for winter break. The ever-popular Candylane at Hersheypark provided a great opportu- nity for a screw your room- mate hall program, and there was plenty of time for a road trip to the mall to have our picture taken with Santa. On a more serious note, several E-town stu- dents helped out those less

fortunate by volunteering at local soup kitchens or donating to clothing drives. While there is no doubt that Christmas attracts the most holiday enthusiasm, there is still plenty more where it came from. Hal- loween is widely celebrated with costume parties, and haunted hayrides are pop- ular among students. Ev- eryone looks forward to Thanksgiving dinner at the caf where the professors and College staff serve the feast. And we can't forget all the love birds as Cupid ap- proaches. Flower trucks grace our parking lots all day long. St. Patty's Day brings green, green every- where, and for the older folks, it was out to the bars to celebrate in true Irish fashion.

A holiday for me has always been a time of ex- treme happiness; a time to spend with loved ones. My favorite holiday is, and always has been Christmas. Be- sides the pre- sents, it is one of the few times during the year when I get to spend quality time with my family. Since I have lived away from home for most of the past four years, time spent with my family has come to mean a great deal more to me. A holiday is something more than a date that comes around every year. It can be any ordi- nary day in my life with the people who make it special. - Jason Lesinski

Occasions for tnrichment

For as small as Eliza- bethtown College is, we are fortunate to have been vis- ited by so many important and interesting speakers during this year's Wednes- day at Ten lecture series.

The first program of the year was Convocation. A few weeks later Ambassador Alan Keyes spoke about the presidential election, among other things, prior to the arrival of presidential can- didate Bob Dole. Dr. Judith A.W. Thomas also spoke about the presidential elec- tion after the fact. The fall semester concluded with the Fine and Performing Arts Christmas Program.

The spring semester in- cluded just as many exciting speakers and topics. Our nation's obsession with thinness was discussed by

Dr. Jean Kilbourne. Don Eberly gave a lecture titled, "Return to Civil Society." Other issues included neo-Nazism and the indi- vidual and community in the Catholic tradition. Bobby Seale, co-founder of the Black Panther Party, spoke to the College, as well as Dith Pran, a Cambodian Holocaust survivor whose story is portrayed in the film, The Killing Fields. A college awards assembly and student recitals closed out the semester.

Although they appealed, naturally, to different sections of the campus population, each of this year's programs was re- markable in its own way.

-Renee Gladfelter

Ambassador Alan Keyes addresses a crowded Leffler Chapel about some of the key issues in the 1996 presidential election.

Dr. Jack Fischel, a Millersville his- tory professor, discusses the neo- Nazi movement in America.

A\j Wednesday at Ten

After sharing his story with the college community, Dith Pran posed with Dr. Wes McDonald.

The Connelly Foundation Lecture Series sponsored "Individual and Community in Catholic Tradition," delivered by Dr. William D'Antonio.

Activist Bobby Seale, co-founder of the Black Panther Party, helped us celebrate Black History Month with his program.

I've always seemed to enjoy the Wednesday at Ten programs more when I'm not required to go, so I was pleasantly sur- prised when I really enjoyed Dith Pran's program about the Cambodian Holocaust for my Compara- tive Politics class.

I had seen The Killing Fields in a his- tory class in high school, and I'm always in- terested in learning more about anything remotely related to the Vietnam era since my dad fought in the Vietnam War, so this was really exciting for me while still being edu- cational. -Jodi Brandon

Happy ^irthdaij to LJoia

-s:

Some people get more excited about an upcoming birthday than others, with a countdown to the big day and everything, while their counterparts let their special day pass without mention.

Whether you celebrate quietly with only yourself and a birthday card from home or you have a party with dozens of friends, birthdays at college are definitely unique for most people. Summer birthday students have it even worse in college sometimes-not only are their friends not around, but there isn't even a day set aside at the end of the school year for all summer birthday people like there was in elemen- tary school. College friends

can get pretty creative, though, celebrating un- birthdays and even half birthdays (the date exactly six months before your big day).

What makes birthdays in college so unique also is that classmates and friends don't just know when your birthday is like friends from home do, or classmates did because birthdays were an- nounced in school. The only way for friends to know now is for us to tell them. Since every family celebrates to a different degree, it is dif- ficult to know what to ex- pect from our friends. Speaking from experience, though, college birthdays can be just as memorable as those spent at home.

-Jodi Brandon

With only five candles to blow out in one breath, Val Wolfe hopes her birthday wish will come true.

ZZ Birthdays

E-town students weren't the only ones celebrating birthdaysthis year. Several students visited Walt Disney World, celebrating its 25th birthday.

The one college birthday mem- ory I'll never forget is trying to organize a surprise party for a friend who didn't want to spend her birth- day alone. No matter how hard we tried, we could not get away to set up for the party. After a few "white lies," and a lot of last- minute running around, we finally had time to celebrate. Birthdays are a great time to spend with friends, whether it be a small get- together given by a roommate or a wild night on the town with an entire group. -Art Paynter

Learning, Relaxing and Jun

Television could arguably be the greatest invention ever in a college student's mind. Although we aren't all the streotypical never- get-off-the-coach-becasue-I- watch-TV-all-day types, television is important to us in many ways. Granted, now that we have access to cable, students are perhaps likely to watch a little more television. But we are also old enough to regulate ourselves and know when we have other things that need to be done.

Not all television viewing is done for entertainment, either. The Weather Chan- nel happens to be one of the most-watched channels on our campus. Many students also watch the news, trying to get a glimpse of what's happening in the real world. Professors can now put shows and movies of their choice onto the campus channel for students to

watch at a particular time, but we watch from the com- fort of our own rooms rather than in a classroom. Stu- dents who have done this have responded positiviely, so this method will probably be used more in the upcom- ing semesters.

We also use our televi- sions for fun, and not just by watching the tube, but by playing Nintendo or Sega, which hook up to tele- visions. The games are fun and relaxing, and more often than not, they require little mental concentration, so we can zone out for a while and just push the buttons on our controllers.

Some people say we watch too much television, and sure, some people do, but not everyone. Many of us use the television for limited entertainment, and some even use it for infor- mation.

General Hospital everyday; I must watch General Hospital everyday. I can't miss it. Like many students, when I prepare to schedule my classes I always try to keep my favorite shows in mind. If I am forced to have a class or even a meeting at that precious time, I make sure that my VCR is programmed to start recording at 3:00 PM and stop at 4:00 PM.

Not only do I have to watch General Hospital all of the time, my mother takes the time to make sure that she mails all of the soap opera magazines to me so my friends and I can keep up on the latest gossip in the addicting and ever changing world of soaps. After all, soap operas are not merely a TV show, they are part of your life.

On the Road Again

(A

CI O

There's no place like home, but it sure is nice to hop in the car for a road trip every now and then. E- town is not a "suitcase college" by any means, but a change of scenery is some- times just the cure for students suffering from exam, paper and project anxiety.

Some of the more usual road trips (not that any of them ever turn out to be ordinary! ) are those to visit friends at other colleges and universities. Many of us are really lucky in that our good friends from home only go to school a couple hours away. Tailgating at a Penn State football game is popular as well as a lot of fun-and who doesn't know someone up at State College? However, some students got really creative this year, heading to New York for a taping of

the Conan O'Brien show and to Maine during Fall Break.

Just about everyone has taken a road trip before, and if you haven't, you're really missing out. Pack a bag with some clothes for the next day and take you're toothbrush, and you are pretty much set for your trip. It's one of the easiest things in the world to do.

Road trips provide students a way to get off campus for a while, and away from all the mid- semester blues that drive us all nuts, so that we can relax for a while. The only negative is that sooner or later we have to get back into that car, or back on that train and return to E- town and our daily routines. -Jodi Brandon

Acquir- ing third row seats enabled us to earn a few seconds of air time during an O.J. Simpson- bashing skit. As Bob Miller ex- plains, "I wish Conan was my dad." After the taping, we made our way to the Fashion Cafe, although any hopes of min- gling with the models was vanquished when they didn't show up.

Road Trips 27

txperience of a Lifetime

-Si

I low does a trip to T 7 France sound to / L you? You could travel the country, see famous landmarks, meet new people and maybe even learn another language. Or maybe you'd prefer Spain, Germany or maybe En- gland. Whichever country you choose, one of the most convenient ways to get there is through the study abroad program we have here at E-town.

Many students took advantage of this opportu- nity last year, including Trinity Deavor and Beth Foremsky, who went to France; Jen Dejewski, Jody Gaspar and Jon Weinstein, all of whom visited Spain; Nicole Hoffman and Marya Bowman, who traveled to Germany; and Kara Vichko, who spent a year in En- gland. Most students spend a semester in the foreign

country of their choice, during which they attend classes and participate in campus activities, travel and learn more about the country. Some students have stayed to do summer internships as well.

In order to be prepared to go abroad, participants spend considerable time studying the country they plan to visit, including learning the culture and language. Some students are international business majors, who are required to spend a semester abroad, but students from other majors participate as well.

If you've ever considered going abroad, many of those who have already par- ticpated would affirm that you should definitely go for it. They feel it was one of the best experiences of their lives.

I learned that there's so much I don't know about my own country. Spring Break in Europe, especial- ly, taught me that all you need in life is a back- pack and some friends.

Whether it's bounce boxing in the raquetball courts on a rainy Homecoming weekend or the deli- cious food and the many activities of the International Fest, the events serve as a release for students from work and classes and are a vital part of college life. After all, what would E-town be without T.G.I.S. weekend, the Junior-Senior and the savory Thanksgiving Day dinner?

With each year comes new special events, and this year was no exception. From the excitment and controversy of presidential candidate Bob Dole's visit to campus to the inauguration of President Long, these new special events will never be forgotten.

From the very first special event of the freshman activities to the very last event of the year- graduation, the best things about them are the friendships and memo- ries that form in four very short years.

Once again the freshmen "get used to the fear" on the annual freshmen walk.

rjootstepsto2000

Few freshmen will forget the mo- ment when they said goodbye to their parents and the initial feelings they had their first few days of college. With all of the various activities planned for the freshmen, there was one emotion that was hard to feel: loneliness.

During the first three days of orien- tation the freshmen got to know one another at the numerous activities. Events such as the freshmen dance, peer group meetings and the candle- light induction ceremony acted as only a few of these exciting activities.

The freshmen walk served as one of the highlights of the weekend for both freshmen and upperclassmen. This one mile ice-breaker allows just about every freshman to meet the oth- ers, whether it be by asking the color of their underwear or riding their back up to the front of the line. Although embarrassing at the time, the fresh- men walk is considered by many as one of the most memorable events of the freshman year.

The exhausting orientation week- end ended at the president's house where students sat with new friends and enjoyed a delicious dessert.

Today

This year's Convoca- tion address, delivered by Ellwood R. Kerkeslager and titled, "A Community of Scholars in the Knowl- edge Age," could not have been more appropriate, given the College's new networking system. Kerkeslager, an associate trustee to Elizabethtown College, focused on being open to change and building on it as we shift to what he calls an Information Age.

Convocation also allowed President Long the opportunity to ad- dress the campus commu- nity for one of the first times, congratulating the College Scholars and promoted faculty for "showing us what educa- tion is all about."

This year's Thank God It's Fall weekend was vastly different from those of past years. The APB-sponsored weekend has traditionally been a folk festival, but it was changed this year to a carnival theme.

TGIF kicked off with the first annual Date Auction on Friday night. Various clubs and organi- zations then set up booths for an afternoon of carnival games on Satur- day, ranging from a ping- pong toss to "pie an R.A." This TGIF weekend will serve as a foundation for the coming years. APB's Special Events chair Missy Grey believes that "although rain dampened some of the excitement for the weekend, it did not diminish APB's excitement about the possibilities of the new carnival theme!"

Politics at TL-^Toivn

Pouring rain didn't dampen any- one's spirits on October 2, 1996 as Bob Dole held a political rally in Thompson Gymnasium. Approximately 3,000 people from the college and commu- nity waited in a line that extended to the Admissions building to hear the Republican presidential hopeful speak.

Before the rally Dole visited a sim- ulated Occupational Therapy class- room where students demonstrated an activity with the use of adaptive equipment, showing Dole how people function independently with a disabil- ity.

Junior Melissa DiSanto introduced Governor Tom Ridge, who asserted that we "need leadership in the White House." Ridge, accompanied on stage by various Pennsylvania legislators, introduced Dole, who began by wel- coming the crowd to a "retirement party for Bill Clinton." Dole went on to speak about his proposed 15% tax cut and school choice.

The excitement on campus couldn't be matched that day for Republicans and Democrats alike. The rally gave most students a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity to see politics reach out to our school and our community.

A Time to Qive

E-town students showed off their caring spirit in the fall with the annual Into the Streets event. Into the Streets is a day set aside for students to give something back to the school and local community. The festivities began Friday evening with a rally to get everyone in the spirit for their tasks the next day. It was also a great time to show off the latest Into the Streets t-shirt!

Bright and early on October 12th the action began. Many of E-town's clubs banded together to accomplish various goals. Some of the projects this year included painting the local library, teaching and playing with children and even helping to build a house for a needy family. At the end of the day, volunteers shared their accomplishments at a picnic dedicated to them.

All were glad to have lent their efforts to the benefit of others. Hope- fully students will meet the Into the Streets challenge as they continue life's journey: Do not just help out for a day, but for a lifetime.

Once again, the annual float- building on Friday night kicked off this year's Homecoming weekend. The winning float for the second year in a row went to the Student Occupational Therapy Association's interpretation of Spain.

After the rain-soaked parade, sudents, alumni, faculty and staff headed on over to Thompson Gym for the traditional Midway festivities. Hundreds of people crowed the tight hallways buying shirts, food and souviniers to remind them of Home- coming 1996.

The announcement of the Home- coming Court and the annual crown- ing of the Homecoming king and Queen took place despite of the rain, during the Lady Jay's Volleyball game, possibly starting a new tradition. Seniors Charlie Grimes and Tara Smith were crowned this year's Homeconimg king and queen.

Inauguration Weel^

Campus was abuzz during Inaugu- ral Week in anticipation of the official ceremony installing President Long. The campus community welcomed President Long and his wife, Betty, with open arms since their arrival in the summer, and they have done the same, first by welcoming freshmen to their home for dessert during the freshmen activities early in the semester, and then during Inaugural Week to the entire student body for student entertainment and refresh- ments.

The week was filled with special events, ranging from speakers to an E- town Through the Years breakfast, where stduents dressed in period clothing and greeted guests, to a display of congratulatory wishes for Dr. Long.

Students actually looked forward to this event, finding a new respect for this president who eats in the caf with us, remembers our names and actually keeps his office door open to us, as opposed to just saying he will.

Ciao Scapino!

Each semester students and faculty of Elizabethtown College work together to present a play to the college commu- nity. This fall's play, Scapino, filled with off-the-wall comedy and wacky action, brought roars of laughter to audiences for two weekends in Novem- ber.

Kevin Urban starred in the role of Scapino. In far-too-simplified terms, the play is one about arranged mar- riages. When two men, Octavio (played by John Yeomans) and Leandro (played by Nathan Troutman), go to Scapino for a way out of their troubles, the fun begins— for the audience, that is. The most humorous part of it all is that Octavio is in love with someone else and therefore trying to get out of his arranged marriage to Geonte's daugh- ter (played by Kelly Calnon). Only, the woman he actually loves is Calnon's character-he just doesn't realize it.

As usual, the students' perfor- mances were quite remarkable, and anyone who missed the show should mark their calendar in advance for the next chance they have to see their fellow students show off their talent on stage. It's sure to be anything but a disappointment.

One Acts

Shining Moments

The One Acts Festival gives students a chance to show off their talents— both on stage and behind the scenes. One Acts are student-directed, pro- duced and starred in.

This year's perfor- mances really enter- tained audiences. John Yeomans directed "The Robin Thomas Theories," about a man and a woman, both named Robin Thomas, who meet in a dentist's office waiting room, which proved to be an audience favorite.

The One Acts give audiences a first-hand look at the talent pos- sessed by the students here at E-town. Anyone who missed this year's performance should make a point to check out next year's. They seem to only get better each year.

-Jodi Brandon

All but. one of this year's One Acts were comedies. In this one, a married couple dukes it out with butter knives to show their anger toward one another.

In "The Robin Thomas Theories," directed by John Yeomans, Dylan Gadino tried to solve the problem of Mr. Robin Thomas and Miss Robin Thomas.

(Breal^Out the Vacuum,..

Well, this year, it wasn't just Mom and Dad on their way up to E- town for the weekend. This year brought the change from what used to be Parents' Weekend to what is now Family Weekend, to accomodate the requests of many students and their families. Rather than a separate Siblings' Week- end, now E-town stu- dents get a double dose of the family medicine, all in one weekend. For many students, the change came in name only, as their entire families have ventured to E-town before.

No matter what the weekend is called on the calendar, though, what it amounts to is a good time for E-town students, often a chance to get off cam- pus and spend some deserved time with their loved ones.

Famil1 Weekend 4 /

A feast of Memories

On November 19, 1996 E-town students once again enjoyed the tradi- tional Thanksgiving Dinner in Myer Dining Hall. The cafeteria staff prepared a delicious feast including a whole turkey for each table to carve.

Among the other traditions include the serving of the food by the faculty and staff of the College. Not only did professors serve students, but student workers also gave their time to serve their fellow students.

The atmosphere was one of relaxation with close friends. Students gave thanks and enjoyed their meals and delicious desserts.

It was apparent that each student enjoyed this special holiday dinner. It was a night to remember with good food and close friends.

Winter Wonderland offers both couples and groups of friends a good time with a mix of dance music and slow songs. Even Santa makes an appearance at Winter Wonderland to pose for pictures with students.

RHA's brilliant idea to have the "cost" of admis- sion be a canned good to be donated to the hungry hasn't deterred anyone away from the dance. As always, the dance floor was packed. It seems as if the entire campus attends the dance, which always proves to be a good time.

biggest and Best International Jest yet

Anyone who attended an event could attest to the fact that much ef- fort was put into this year's Interna- tional Fest, held from March 17th through the 24th. This year's theme, "Your Wings to the World," showcased many special events throughout the week, some traditional (as in, from the previous International Fests) and some were new and unique to this year. For example, the international coffee house is an event normally held during this week, and this year was no exception.

Several interesting new events were added to this year's schedule, though, most notably, the main attrac- tion: ETHNIC MAN. Teja Arboleda, self-dubbed as Ethnic Man because of his unique multi-cultural heritage, entertained the campus community Saturday evening. Ethnic Man's reputation preceded him as an Emmy- award winning writer, actor, comic and public speaker— and he certainly deserves that tremendous reputation.

Hats off to those who organized, and those who attended, the events of this year's International Fest— it just gets better every year!

-Jodi Brandon

Student models dazzled the crowd with authentic clothing from around the globe.

International Club members Tracey Jackson and Akiko Hamada gave their time as models in the international fashion show, to the delight of the audience.

International Fest O J.

You'd never know cast members were exhausted from the long hours spent rehearsing for the performance by the smiles on their faces here.

Unique Show (Draws Crowds

The alumni theatre was packed for the performances of the spring play, Dylan Thomas' "Under Milk Wood." Originally designed to be a radio play with voices only but redesigned by our own theatre department with a sort of interactive appeal, additional cast members, when not on stage, actually sat as audience members. This was certainly one of the high points of this year's production.

The show is the story of a dysfunc- tional Welsh fishing town, told through the eyes (at least in our version) of two voices, provided by Miriam Zucker and John Yeomans. Via these voices, the audience was brought into the lives of these towns- people while they sleep one night. Night turns into day as the lives of the townspeople take shape. Several witty lines were executed perfectly by the cast although the performance was primarily not a comedy.

Audiences agree that having characters actually sitting in the audience with them was a particularly nice feature of our cast's performance. -Laura D'Aguanno

With dramatic performances, Sarah Cropley and Saul Passe let their characters take over.

All eyes are on the accused as a townsman empties his pockets for the crowd surrounding him.

Although in the play the charac- ters' lives are dysfunctional, off stage, cast members are great friends-and also quite normal.

John Yeomans' seemingly effort- less performance as one of the play's "voices," providing commen- tary into the lives of Nathan Troutman's-and others'-char- acters, made the show truly unique.

Saving the (Best for Last

Juniors and seniors break out of their jeans-and-tee-shirt molds for this special night, and this year's formal was no exception. Dresses were bought and suits were ironed as up- perclassmen prepared for one of the most memorable nights of their college careers.

The night kicked off with cocktails and then dinner, followed by dancing. Some students and their dates changed clothes before the dancing began so they would be more comfort- able (everybody remembers Prom night in high school, being stuck in fancy duds all night and not able to move!!). One student remarked, "This is how you tell the serious dancers with those here just to be here. The serious dancers have lost the fancy clothes already-and the music hasn't even started!"

Whether there to dance or there to mingle, to be with friends or to be with a significant other, everyone who attended this year's Junior-Senior will agree that it was indeed a night to remember— a special time to spend with those close to you as graduation approached.

%ain on our Parade

The most anticipated weekend on campus has once again come and gone, and it did not disappoint. The Para- dise Island theme unfortunately got lost in the poor weather conditions, but it was still a great time for the student body.

The weekend kicked off Thursday night with the hilarious return of hypnotist Michael Anthony. He used his skills to poke fun at about twenty E-town students, most memorably Rob Smith, who periodically thought he was Tarzan.

Friday night brought the sounds of Solution A.D. and Buffalo Tom to our own Thompson Gymnasium. Both bands put on spectacular perfor- mances, to the delight of the audience, many of whom knew little about the bands before the concert.

Saturday's events were forced inside due to the weather. The much- awaited Battle of the Air Bands did not disappoint anyone, and it was followed by the Roommate Game and Lazer Tag.

The weekend came to a grinding halt Sunday night with a fireworks display before students returned to the reality of the end of semester blues.

Our Last Jiurrah

Finals are over, but seniors aren't headed home for the summer or off to a new job— not yet anyway. With just one week remaining until graduation, seniors wanted to make the most of it.

Many seniors packed up the car and gathered their friends for a trip to the beach. Sun, sand and surf sure beat studying for exams and writing papers! Other seniors head- ed home, or elsewhere, to set up job interviews and apartment hunt for post-graduation. Still others who remained on campus, either to work or just spend time with friends.

By Thursday, though, seniors were back on campus for a dinner held at President and Mrs. Long's house. After four years, seniors were treated to the good stuff: a cham- pagne toast (out of real glasses, at that!!).

Friday was spent at graduation practice, a class barbecue and Baccalaureate.which included a beautiful candle-lighting ceremony. Seniors couldn't believe the week went by so quickly. Fortunately, the memories won't fade as quickly as the time passed.

%gin, %ain, Qo Away —And Stay Away

The morning of May 17th looked dreary as seniors woke up and looked out their windows, hoping for sunshine and dry skies. It had rained on Homecoming, it had rained during T. G.I. S., and we were losing hope that it wouldn't rain on graduation day. And it did. Fortu- nately, though, the downpour only lasted a few moments, and it hap- pened while the seniors were inside lining up (unfortunately, our fami- lies were not— sorry about that, Mom and Dad).

As the Class of 1997 slowly marched through the Dell to the tune of Pomp and Circumstance, though, the sun was shining. The ceremony was an emotional one for many, as Dean Crocker said good- bye to the Class of 1997 and the College. Speaker Joseph Adams gave the seniors some valuable ad- vice about building a career: when offered that first job, take it. It will be an unvaluable learning experi- ence if nothing else.

Cameras flashed, classmates hugged, parents cried and the day was nothing but a huge success. -Jodi Brandon

Rising Toward Tomorrow

Four years ago, when the class of 1997 first put pencil to paper at registration and foot to pavement at the freshmen walk, senior year seemed far away. Now the students who worried about missing classes, missing parties and missing high school friends are ready to take another step toward the real world and all of its unfamiliarity.

These four years of training may have gone by too quickly, but they have been filled with memories. Four years' worth of Homecomings, TGIS weekends, dances and unoffi- cial gatherings around campus highlighted the underclassmen years. Then as seniors all the hard work payed of with the best lottery numbers, 97 Days Till Graduation, the Junior-Senior formal and finally graduation.

Now as job interviews are being scheduled and graduate school ap- plications are being reviewed, mem- bers of the class of 1997 can look forward to the challenges of their futures secure in the knowledge that they have made the best of their E-town years.

-LUb Residence Life Divider

Rise and Shine

Sleeping, studying and spending time with hallmates are all ways in which Elizabethtown students enjoy life in a residence hall. As freshmen find the laundry room, sophomores, juniors and seniors devise new ways to arrange study lounges. In the meantime, RAs hunt for new and imaginative hall programs.

Each day in a residence hall is a chance to meet new faces and form stronger connections with friends as each building takes on its own per- sonality. Founders residents form a family, Myer and Preservation resi- dents always get to the caf on time and Royer and Schlosser girls brave the weather to trek across the Dell to classes. Ober and Brinser resi- dents are the quickest to turn up the music and open their windows to let in the fresh spring air.

Over a thousand students reside in the residence halls, all of whom find a variety of ways to rise to the occasions of dorm life. Some order a pizza at midnight while sleeping residents fill the next dorm over. As they gather in lounges and neigh- bors' rooms, residents of each dorm build a unique and exciting living community.

-Jennifer Lee

Joe Godfrey takes a moment to set up his speakers for the famous ten minutes at ten o'clock that have become a tradition in many dorms during finals week to break the tension and release stress.

Brinser

Brinser boys have "been enjoying building-wide programs this year," according to Shane Serpico and other residents. Exciting movie nights, dozens of wings from the Roost and pizza parties were well-received by many of the residents. Rising to educate themselves about current social and health issues, these students utilized Wellness Peer Educa- tors from the Health Center for informative discussions concerning several important topics. Brinser is also stereotypically the number-one place to catch up on sports teams. Brinser is where many team members build their strong friendships that bond them as teammates and not merely individuals who share a field. On the not-so-serious side, this dorm continues to love and be known for good- natured fun. That, of course, is one of the main reasons why Brinser is, in the jovial eyes of Matt Antoline, "easily the most popular dorm on campus." Overall, finding time for work, friends and fun are the pasttimes of Brinser residents.

Founders

With all the necessities-caffeine, music and books-Jack Guenin gets set for Prob and Stat.

As the largest of E-town's residence halls, Founders rises to the occasion of co-ed dorm life on the hill above Brinser Field. Composed of four buildings, much creativ- ity, variety and style all exude from its many doors. Fun and unique hall programs included a fondue "icebreaker" party at the beginning of the year, trips to M&M Mars, Crayola Crayons and the Ghosts of Gettysburg, a dorm- wide barbecue and a sponsored outing to New York City. The diversity of such activities is, perhaps, a reflection of the wide variety of students who love to call Founders their "home away from home." Another positive aspect of Founders, as noted by Tom Sofield, is that it grants students the opportunity to "acquire many new friend- ships due to its diverse setup." Founders' square con- figuration and many lounges give students numerous places to interact. In agreement, Matt Ellis mentioned, "Founders is good because there are a lot of different people, and the co-ed environment makes it a more enriching living place." Each floor has a personality of its own that sets it apart, yet each one also blends well with the others, truly making Founders residents a family.

Ober

RAs Mary Triano, Jason Berkenstock and Kelly Calnon are back early for training in the fall.

As one of two co-ed residence halls, Ober has found itself to be the favorite dorm of many students on E-towns campus. Its central location and reputation for fun are two of the main reasons for Ober's popularity. It is almost the first residence hall to fill up at room selection, and this year was no exception. Some of the events and activities that resi- dents enjoyed this year are ghost-o-grams and a Ghosts of Gettysburg trip where students braved the tales and stories of the Gettysburg area in October. A condom party and stress ball-making programs held at other times during the year offered Ober residents opportunities to unwind, educate themselves and have fun all at the same time. An ice cream social held before finals entertained many students, and some students relaxed with a game of pool or a ping-pong match. Through these and other events, Ober occupants have risen to the occasion and made new friendships while strengthening old ones. After all, living among amigos and having "great neighbors" is a big plus according to residents Jamie Wiedenhafer and Dana Berglund.

Myer

Phone calls and e-mail are the Saturday routine for Angie Kinser and Karen Cashin.

From Italian dinner nights to ice cream socials, this resi- dence hall has really been cooking. Myer occupant Susie Beiler says she likes this dorm because "in the winter you don't have to go outside to get to the caf." This year other residents have broken out of their molds by becoming involved in many campus activities, such as participating in prepartory activities surrounding Bob Dole's visit to E- town. Taking time to care for one's physical well-being has also been a focus. Makeovers and lessons on proper skin care from Mary Kay representatives and visits from a professional masseuse are just two examples of such programs. There are many things to do with hallmates in Myer, such as trick or treating, which was really fun, according to Chani Bergen.

Preservation

In addition to traditional hall dinners and socials, Preser- vation residents are sadly preparing to see its doors close forever. Residents have appreciated the benefits that come with the single-room dormitory. As Lindsey Decker said, "Although we live alone, we are all pretty good friends. It's the best of both worlds." Many students will miss Preser- vation and hope that a new building will soon take its place. Nikole Yuninger pointed out, "I hope they will replace it with something else to accomodate the demand for single housing."

Royer

By changing its image from the "nunnery" to the "funnery," the ladies of Royer are rising to the occasion. Entertaining activities such as tracing the body of one's roommate, scribbling favorite phrases on quote boards and tie-dying have satisfied the playful sides of many Royer residents. "The people are just hysterical. You could be in the room of someone you don't even know well and you'll have fun," noted resident Jenn Wilson. Rollerskating, hiking and visiting seasonal attractions are a few of the unique out- ings made by various halls. With these types of agendas, the traditional nickname will be put to rest very soon. Sophomore Cathy Stine wonders, "Who started calling it the nunnery anyway? Anyone who visits 3-South knows what fun it is!"

The guiding force. The academic architects. The professional motiva- tional staff. The E-town proletariat. The collective formerly known as "The Faculty."

Here at E-town, there is more to the staff than just the faculty men- tors and friends who help us to grow within the classroom setting. The administration spends their time creating and refining each element of the college experience so that we will not only leave E-town with good memories but with confidence in our futures as well. The campus staff knows that the best academic cur- riculum and the most advanced facilities in the world are useless if students don't feel comfortable in their "home away from home."

These three groups work together to enrich the mind, body and soul of every student who passes through registration each semester. They provide our campus with an atmo- sphere in which we are not obligated to attend classes, but rather where we are inspired to learn. Whether the loving care is put into grilled cheese sandwiches, scholarship fund- ing or advising sessions, it is the one element which makes E-town a place to which we all can come home. -Kristen Kane

Occasionally Odd

Every professor has his or her own weird teaching habits. By week two you've figured them out and by week three they are driving you crazy. You anticipate them every time a professor opens his mouth. You learn to read his or her emotions by how often they use their quirks. Sometimes you even catch yourself using them outside of class.

Many of these quirks have become classics which will undoubtedly be retired along with the professor. Any student can learn to imitate them to amuse her friends. Other quirks rise up from the professor's personality for a one-time-only appearence and are never seen again, although they are talked about for years to come.

We've interrogated students from all majors and compiled a list of the finest oddities to grace the lecture halls of Elizabethtown College. See if you can guess which prof originated which quirk.

Dr. Sevareid is the king of his castle, with a cluttered desk obviously being the sign of a creative mind.

Rising to Victory

Elizabethtown College has always been known for its excel- lence both inside the classroom and out. This past year, the Elizabethtown sports' teams up- held this tradition of excellence with many record-setting seasons and playoff bids. Hard work and dedication by the players and skillful mentoring by the coaching staffs allowed all the teams to rise to the occasion against their oppo- nents.

The support that the teams experienced this year from their fans was definitely a contributing factor in their successes. From the fans throwing marshmallows on the sidelines of the field to the bleachers filled with cheering fans at the courts, supporters proved to be a great source of energy for the teams. Confidently and proudly, Elizabethtown athletes and fans joined together to leave their mark in college history.

Determined and un- compromising. That is the only way to describe E-town's 1996 cross country harriers as they worked through a tough season to achieve win- ning records for both the men's and women's teams. Despite some disappointing losses, the team members showed themsleves strong in spirit and in body, and they proved they have what it takes to be winners.

The men's team,

overcoming the fact that many of its members were young and inexperi- enced, turned heads with its 5-4 record, a dramatic improvement over last year's. Returning senior veteran Bruce Hansen served as a strong base for the men's team. From the beginning, the men had a great deal of optimism, which mani- fested itself in their progressive showings throughout the season.

The women, also motivated for a great

season, demonstrated true team work and togetherness. Despite the loss of senior Mindy Enterline, one of the MAC's best runners, due to injury, the team pushed itself to the limit.

The cross country teams set their focus on the finish line, rather than injuries and defeats, and came through trium- phantly, giving them more than just winning records.

Experience Leads Lady Jays

The Blue Jay field hockey team began the year with a positive outlook. With eight returning starters, the team set its sights on the postseason. Determina- tion, hard work and teamwork were all elements of the '96 Blue Jay team.

The team finished with an impressive 14-5 overall record under veteran coach Yvonne Kauffman. Senior co- captains Maggie Nelis and Amanda Lingle provided the necessary leadership for the team this season. Nelis ended

the season by setting a school record of 38 assists for the season, helping her to achieve MAC All- Star status. Rising star freshman Anne Hustinx, a foreign exchange student from Holland, provided scoring for the team this season as well. Defense also proved to be a major part of the team's success. Oppo- nents had a difficult time scoring against the Blue Jays' strong backfield, and junior Alison B runner provided a particularly outstanding performance for the season in goal. With an

impressive number of shutouts, the team's defense supported the team and carried it through the year.

Although the Blue Jays did not make the playoffs this season, their valient efforts and great season deserve congratu- lations. The team worked hard, and everyone is looking forward to next season, when many of this year's young talent will be returning.

Blue Jays Regain MAC Title

The 1996 season proved to be a good one for the Blue Jay soccer team. An outstanding effort led the Jays to an impressive 18-2-2 regular season record. The Jays began the season by reclaiming their title in the Blue Jay Classic and continued with one success after another, including big wins over rivals Messiah and Millersville.

As the Blue Jays entered the MAC play- offs, they dominated Wilkes in the semi-finals

and came together as a team to beat Scranton in the final. With the MAC championship under their belt, the men turn- ed their concentration to the NCAA tournament. Two great efforts paid off with wins in the first and second rounds, which led the Jays to the regional final versus Bethany College. Despite a tough loss in the final, which shattered the Blue Jays' hopes of a national championship, the Jays ended their season with the MAC championship.

Coach Skip Roderick received attention in USA Today for his success as the E-town College soccer coach.

The 1996 Blue Jays were led by senior tri- captains Mark Cham- bers, Bryan Green and Jason Hoy. The future looks bright for the Blue Jays in 1997 with the return of goalkeeper Chris Hepler and other '96 starters.

Booters Have Dream Season

After a taste of the post-season in '95, the Lady Jays were deter- mined to make this sea- son successful. With a quick 4-0-1 start, the booters set the pace for the winning season they would have in front of them. The team finished the season with an impressive 18-2-2 record, but that is just the beginning.

The season proved to be one of record-breaking for the women's soccer team. The ladies were recognized for most of the

season in the national rankings and pulled off key wins to gain a home- field advantage in the playoffs. A record num- ber of twelve shutouts, eighteen wins and an undefeated season in the conference will be added to the record books for this Blue Jay team. Perhaps the biggest accomplishment of all, however, was that the team brought home the first-ever MAC crown in women's soccer history. Senior captain Corie Stover provided strong

leadership to a relatviely young team. Offensively the team was strong and was able to score when the team most needed it. Defense proved to be an asset as well, recording twelve shutouts as well as allowing just eleven goals in 22 games.

The season came to a disappointing end with the team not receiving an invitation to the NCAA tournament. With only two seniors graduating, though, next year's team will be one to watch.

Netters Shine In Triumph

The 1996 Women's Tennis team proved to be a strong force in the Commonwealth League this season. Under the leadership of senior Lottie Smith, the Netters ended the regular season 9-4 overall and 6-1 in the Commonwealth League. Dedication and teamwork alone allowed the team to achieve great success and make it to the playoffs.

Although the Blue Jays lost their number one and two players from the 1995 team, everyone

anticipated a great season. Many players improved their games and proved to be great assets to the team.

Early in the season, guided by coach Kathy Montgomery, entering her fifth season as coach, the team had to battle the bad weather. How- ever, after a few games the players became comfortable and pulled out five straight wins working their way to a second place finish.

Although many

doubles pairs and indi- viduals made it into the postseason, it proved to be short for the Blue Jays. The team made it to the semifinals, and Jen Timmins and Mary Boebel were invited to the individual competi- tion. Doubles competi- tion saw pairs Nina Corello and Lottie Smith and Jen Bashore and Denise Costenbader enter the MAC postseason.

Spikers Have Respectable Season ^^

Coach Bill Helm and the Elizabethtown Blue Jay Volleyball team hoped to have a strong season, beat Juniata, and make it to the playoffs. With a wealth of talent and returning starters, senior Jodi Hillegass and juniors Liz Bishard, Tracy Eck, and Kim Baney these seemed to be attainable goals. After winning the Mizuno challege, and several other matches early in the season, these hopes increased. The Spikers

ended the season with a showing of 24- 1 1 and a Middle Atlantic Confer- ence record of 4-2.

The team was led by co-captains Hillegass and Bishard. Hillegass became the first Blue Jay to break the 1,000 career digs mark. Bishard followed her example, also reaching the 1,000 career digs mark. Hillegass and Bishard also led the team on the offensive front. Other offensive stars were sophomore setter Kristen

Maguire, leading in assists, and junior middle blocker Jess Fickett.

The Spikers began their season by racing to a 7-0 start. The volleyball team may not have made it to post-season play, but they were up against tough competition, includ- ing long time rival Juniata. With only two seniors graduating, the experience level of the team will be high next season, leading to aspira- tions of bringing home the MAC title.

Jays Earn Rightful Recognition

Coach Schlosser and the Men's Basketball team began the season with two objectives: to make it to the playoffs and to avenge a season- ending loss to Lycoming which knocked the team out of last year's playoffs in the first round. With all of last year's players returning, these goals were within the team's reach. The Jays finished the season 17-9, after accomplishing both of their goals.

Tri-captains Andy

Burkholder, Larry Bellew and Ryan Billet, along with Brad Karli and Jesse Kulp, led the team to an outstanding 6-0 start. Billet proved to be the team standout, garnishing several honors, including First Team MAC All Star, and becoming the 25th member of E-town's 1,000 point club, all the while suffering a recurring ankle injury.

The Jays achieved both of their goals on the same night. The first

round seemed like deja- vu to the team— the same team members playing Lycoming on the same night as the previous year. Only this year, the Blue Jays came out victorious. The next game would be against Widener, and unfortu- nately the Jays' season ended there.

Coach Schlosser summed the season up best by calling it "satisfy- ing." Just about everyone would have to agree.

Championship Season for Hoopsters

The 1996-97 season proved to be a memorable one for the Lady Jays Basketball team. Despite a rocky start, the team returned from Winter Break in the Bahamas with plenty of sunshine for E-town. The Lady Jays went on a long winning streak, including a perfect record in the MAC and a championship in the Blue Jay Classic Tournament. After finishing 13-1 in the MAC to win the league title, the Lady Jays

focused their attention on the NCAA Tournament. Beating Allentown in the first round, the team met John Hopkins in the second round. Although they fought hard, they lost the game as well as their hopes of a national championship.

The Lady Jays were led by head coach Yvonne Kauffman and senior team captains Tammy Herrmann and Jodi Hillegass. Add "the big three" junior Brenda Wessel and Sophomores

Shauntae Stancil and Kim Boback, and it is easy to see why the Lady Jays were so impressive. Despite the loss of the sought after National title, the future looks bright for the Lady Jays. The team will lose only two seniors this year and are left with four return- ing starters for next year. The 1997-98 Lady Jays basketball team will definitely be one to watch next year.

Grapplers Bring Attention

This year, the Elizabeth- town Wrestling team faced a building season. With a young team and a very tough schedule, the team built itself with hard work and determi- nation. Co-captains senior David Devine and junior Jamie Hollinger provided support for this team and led them to an unbelievable season under the guidance of coach Steve Capoferri. Devine placed third in the region and received the honor of Academic

Ail-American.

After an impressive early win against Gettysburg, the first time since 1990, the team established themselves as a force to reckoned with. Although the team experienced many inju- ries early in the season, three freshmen began with over twenty wins. One of these included Tim Jordan, who pro- vided the team with an impressive run for the heavyweight slot.

Ending the season

with an overall 15-11 record, injury and fatigue caught up with the team. However the Grapplers prevailed and the Blue Jay team sent seven wrestlers to the MAC tournament.

After such an impres- sive season, the team opened the eyes of many people in the collegiate sports field. This talent will carry to next year provides the Grapplers with hopes for a national ranking.

Batsmen Overcome Challenges

With a disappointing season's end last year, the Blue Jays were ready to attack this season head on. The loss of several key players from last year's team as well as a new coach meant some adjustments for this year's team. Coach Gary Pritchard brought a new atmosphere with him to this team, and a whole new attitude resulted from it. His philosophy? Motivating his players through positive rein- forcement and encourage- ment. It worked.

With the experience of many returning players, the Blue Jays headed off the season with an 8-0 start during their annual

Spring Break trip to Florida for training. The team made an impressive showing and was anxious to get back home to begin the season. Under the leadership of co-captains Dave Cappuccio and Drew Wolanin, the team was determined to take it to the very end: to win the MAC title.

Throughout the entire season, the Jays re- mained ranked among the top five teams in the MAC. Late in the season, though, injuries and fatigue caught up with the team, plaguing both pitchers as well as starting fielders. Other players stepped up, playing outstanding Blue

Jay baseball. After a hard losing streak to non- MAC teams, the team was forced to regroup and push forward to catch the title.

With a record of 19-11 for the regular season, 10-4 in the league, the Batsmen made the trip to the postseason, tied for first place in the MAC with Albright and Mes- siah. After defeating Delaware Valley and Messiah in postseason play, the Jays captured the MAC title. The team deserves congratulations for rising above the rest and bringing home the MAC crown in 1997.

The 1997 Blue Jay golfers were excited for the season to begin. Wind and rain plagued the 1996 season and with the start of the 1997 season, it looked no different. The team faced many games where they had to battle the wind, rain and cold weather that are not typical of April weather. Under the direction of seniors Ralph Ivory, Kyle Little and Larry Bellow, and Coach Keith Marks, the team set its sights on the MAC

title.

With such a short season, the Jays wanted to gain momentum early in the season so they could gear themselves toward the MACs that would follow in the coming weeks. The team started out 2-0 and was on its way to an impres- sive season. The depth and determination of all the players fought against the harsh weather, and the team ended the season with an overall record of 7-3.

Rising to the Top

After a disappointing 1996 season, the 97 Blue Jay softball team began the year with high hopes: making the playoffs. After losing several key players from last season, the team consisted of several new leaders. The most obvious new leader was Coach Barb Shenk, who, with the help of assistant coach Kevin Rossi, took this team to a new level. Aggressive base play was encouraged this season, as well as rotating players to play more than one position in

the field. Changes in the lineup from last season coupled with this new playing style brought a whole new mentality to the Lady Jays.

Depth and versatility characterized this year's team. Seniors Sallie Mohr and Jamie Ochs and junior Lora Crawford all returned from impres- sive seasons last year. Mohr, along with fresh- men Linda Milnes and Erin Reynolds, provided strong leadership for the Jays on the pitching mound. A solid defense

backed up the pitchers in many of the close wins throughout the season.

The team battled its way through several doubleheaders, often losing the first game to come back and win the second. Although the playoffs were out of reach, team members continued to play hard.

The team ended the season with a record of 18-15 and a sense of success, and will be prepared for next sea- son's journey to the top.

Young Blood with Tough Spirits

The 1997 Netters began this season with a fairly young team, the majority being freshman. In fact, the teams only veteran players were co-captains senior Ben Smith and junior Jon Flood. Their experience, with the help of third year coach Kathy Montgomery, led the team through the season and got them through many of the tough times they experienced. De- spite the seeming lack of college-level experience, the team improved throughout the season and showed great progress compared to last year's performance. This was accomplished in a large part by the con-

tributions of freshmen members of the team, such as Nate Smith and Marius Schlatmann.

From the beginning, the MACs were the team's goal, an attainable one with the talent the team was comprised of. Through frustrating losses and heartbreaking defeats, the team pushed on, each time demanding a higher level of perfor- mance. The team also had to battle bad weather and sub-freezing tem- peratures through much of its season.

Through their per- serverance and drive to succeed, they acheived fourth place in the MACs, up from their

tenth place finish last season. The MAC indi- vidual tournament saw a few faces from E-town as well. Freshmen Justin Fisher and Brandon Yorty represented the Blue Jays in single competition, and pair teams of Flood and freshman Scott Czerwonka and freshmen Smith and Schlatmann represented the Jays in doubles action. Overall, the Netters had a suc- cessful season and are anxious for next year, with all of this year's experience under their belts.

Rising Occasion

How would you describe clubs at Elizabethwon College? Well, the first thing that comes to mind is quantity. There are close to 70 clubs at E-town, and they offer a wide variety of activities to become in- volved in. In this section you can catch a glimpse of E-town clubs and activities from Accounting and Fi- nance to WWEC.

Freshmen and upperclassmen get a chance to become involved very easily in the school year. The Activi- ties Fair, which is held in the fall, gives students a chance to sign up for as many clubs as they wish. E- town students are often so enthusi- astic that they join more activities than their schedules allow for! Usu- ally students find that being in- volved in just a few clubs is enough to fill the time left after classes, homework and sports.

After the Activities Fair, clubs really get into the swing of things. Some major dates for E-town activi- ties include Homecoming, Christmas tree decorating and the Spring Arts Festival. In between these events, clubs hold meetings and fundraisers. Obviously clubs keep E-town stu- dents busy and show that E-town College activities rise to the occa- sion.

OPEN M NDS

"Gay or strait, it dosen't matter, that is the whole point" explaines Dana Thomas of Allies. Allies is a student run group on campus open to all students that promotes gay aware- ness and acceptance in our community. Whether it is traveling to the Washington D.C. area to see the Aids Quilt or sponsoring a display of the quilt on campus. Missy Hockensmith visited the quilt while it was on cam- pus and "found it to be emotional and important in that it emphasised the need for Aids research and that Aids can affect anyone." According to Thomas,

"Allies is opening the minds of the college community."

Allies also brought homosexual rights activist Craig Dean to campus in the Spring to speak about current issues. His main foucus was gay and Lesbian marriages which have caught the attention of numerous forms of media lately as well as being an issue within many religious communities.

Thomas ended by saying that "Allies mission is to break down the stereotyped walls of the community and accept people for who they are, not what they are."

MAKING A MARK

This was a big year for the College Democrats! They were preparing for Bob Doles appearance at Elizabethtown College. Dawn Chesterman stated, "We were excited about Doles arrival at Elizabeth- town, but we wanted the media to know about the democrats on our campus."

The Democrats major goals during this time were to organize a rally before the Bob Dole speech. They made their presence known with numerous signs and

chanting. One of their biggest issues that they mentioned was Bill Clinton's support of educa- tion. Members from Victory '96 helped the club by providing them with souve- nirs and signs to support Bill Clinton.

The College Democrats also took the time to edu- cate their members and anyone who would listen on a variety of issues concearning the campaign. - Adrienne Keeney

Jill Weber and Adrienne Keeney decide which layout to use for the activites section of the Conestogan.

The Conestogan is student-produced each year by a staff of approximately twenty students. Coverage has expanded over the past couple eyars to include a Student Life section as well as more candid pictures. The book has been ex- panded in both the number of pages and in its physical size also as more students and organizations are being photographed. As co-editor Jodi Brandon explains, "I'm proud to be at the head of

such a hard-working group of people. A lot of hours are put into the production of this book, and I think the student body would agree— I hope they would agree-that we've made tremendous progress." The yearbook is the only permanent memory of the entire year, and for the size of our school and budget the staff has, the Conestogan is really a quality publication. Coverage is constantly on the rise.

Habitat for Humanity this year completed a five year project that started in the infancy of the club. The 100th campus chapter finished their first house on East High Street giving a family not only a home, but hope for a brighter future. Of course the house was only one small part of the organization's year. They worked together at various

other construction sites to help build Habitat Homes.

The club also hosted their annual auction which helped raise money for a spring break trip to Jackson, Tennessee to assist the local affiliate in building a house along with numerous other small projects.

Overall, Habitat once again had a busy, but very successful and satisfying year.

The International Club has been successful in bridging the cultural gap for our students. According to Raana Rene, president of the International Club, it's mission is "to make the adjustment process easier for international students coming to Elizabethtown College." Another goal of the organization is to have programs that reflect American activities such as Basketball games and trips to big cities. The third goal of the International club is attempting to educate others about different cultures in planning trips to restaurants and speakers.

The International Club was again involved in the International Fest which

Center.

Katen said "It was great. It also is a great idea to try and get a teen center built since there really isn't anywhere for the kids of Elizabethtown to gather and stay out of trouble."

Finally, the Neuman Club held prayer meetings every week to promote faith in God. The Neuman Club provided a number of services to the Catholic community. Katen feels, "It is important to have faith in God and to have people to talk to that have the same religious values.

The Political Science Club is made up of majors and minors within the study of Political Science, Demo- crats and Republicans alike. Their goal is not to empha- size one party over the other; rather it looks at issues in a more intellectual way, challenging ideas and not party affiliations. The club also sponsors speakers

and volunteers at election campaigns during election years. Members are encour- aged to get involved with the political system and make their voices heard. To do this, many members also belong to either the College Democrats or the College Republicans, where parti- san politics do take over.

The purpose of the Society for Collegiate Journalists is to promote high standards of journal- ism in each of the campus media organizations.

Students are nominated by their editor or manager if they have a 2.75 GPA and have served on the campus media for one year. Current SCJ members review the nominations and select each year's inductees. Inductees

are elected based on their overall contributions to the media.

This year, SCJ inducted nineteen new members who represented all four campus media-ECTV, WWEC-FM, the Conestogan and the Etownian.

Senior Tom Webster said, "In addition to the induction we brought in a number of speakers to discuss how the field of media is changing ." -Laura D'Aguanno

SOUND OIF IE-TOWN

Stolen CD's, a new emergency system, and no Macarena Sharky. What more can you ask for? WWEC, E-town's student managed and operated radio station had a great year despite a few obstacles.

Broadcasting from 7:00 AM to Midnight on week- days and 8:00 AM to Mid- night on weekends, the DJs this year stressed variety and reinforced the station motto, being the true "Sound of Elizabethtown."

From Chris Turners new alternative on Sunday night to Ed Burke's classic rock Wednesday afternoon to Dana Thomas' variety show, WWEC never ceased to entertain the community. Senior Maria Ciccarella, WWEC's DJ director com- mented "there were over 55 DJs who were very active. Some had performers come on their show. The DJs followed formats which made it fun for listeners." -Laura D'Aguanno

Jen Hammes takes a break to smile for the camera as she DJs her radio show.

Current Events

This past year has certainly been one for the record books-both positively and negatively. Celebrations were often marked by tragedy, such as the Olympic bombing, despite their success. Olym- pic athletes rose to the occasion, though, despite the disaster, and made the Olympics a memorable occasion.

In this election year, President Clinton rose to Bob Dole's challenge and was reelected for a second term— the first incumbent Democrat since FDR in 1944 to be reelected. Bob Dole based his platform on a 15% tax cut and family values, and he person- ally stopped for a campaign rally here at the College in October.

The world of athletics met the challenges of this monumental year as well. Along with the success of American Olympic athlets in Atlanta, golfer Tiger Woods stormed onto the PGA scene, barely out of his teenage years. More traditionally, the Green Bay Packers won the Supoerbowl over the New England Patriots, and the Yankees beat the Atlanta Braves in six games for the World Serieos title.

All around the country American hearts broke in sympathy for the vitims of TWA Flight 800, the California wildfires and Hurricane Hortense which seemed to take control of our nation. Mother Nature finally eased up and allowed us all to breathe a sigh fo relief and appreciate good times, such as astronaut Shannon Lucid's return to Earth after a record six months in space.

The women's basketball team had quite a successful season, and had quite a fol- lowing no matter where they traveled by the Jay Crew, the official team fan club.

Homecoming was a huge success despite the poor weather-Charlie Grimes and Tara Smith sure didn't mind, anyway!

The graduating class listens intently, anxiously awaiting the awarding of the diplomas and the life that follows college.

Phalanx performances are no longer such a rare treat, as the group's popularity has caused it to become more available for crowd-pleasing performances.

Rising to the Future

As the seniors leave Elizabeth- town College, there is no doubt that the members of the class of 1997 will rise to meet the chal- lenges in the next chapters of their lives. This year has given not only seniors, but the entire campus community as well, the opportu- nity to rise to the occasion. We opened our campus to Republican presidential hopeful Bob Dole for a political rally, providing volunteer support and community involve- ment, for example.

We also experienced a few losses this year, including the de- parture of both Provost Ritsch and Dean Crocker, as well as several other members of the College staff. We must look upon these losses as opportunitues for both the College and these members of our commu- nity who have spent endless time, effort and energy for the well- being of the students and staff of Elizabethtown.

As we prepare for next year, we know that seniors and underclass- men alike will continue to rise to the occasion and tackle whatever obstacles we encounter in our paths to the future.

-Craig Bertz and Jodi Brandon

As many friends and hallmates do, Tara Soffientini and John Stolnis hang out and unwind in the lounge before heading to their rooms.

Senior class officers Dan Jones, Megan Forney and Anitra Yusinski were happy to accompany Presi- dent Long in "The Macarena" at their class banquet.

Diana and Stephanie Hirtzel are siblings and friends, making their college experiences that much more enjoyable.

Goretti Mapulanga reflects on her accomplishments during the commencement ceremony before she heads back out into the real world at home in Africa.

When the weather warms up, E- town's campus seems to be flocked with students taking advantage of the nice weather. Many friends found taking a walk allowed them to enjoy the pleasant surroundings while catching up with a friend.

Many students will miss the often- peaceful nature the senior quads had to offer to balance the hectic daily routines of their lives, away from campus yet still a part of it.

A new Dean of College Life will assume Dean Crocker's position in the fall as he moves on to the next stage of his life. He will be greatly missed by students and staff alike.
