Sen. Ted Stevens, R-Alaska, said testimony at a Senate field hearing Monday indicated that the rift between fishermen and regula- tors in North Carolina may be so wide that neither side understands the problem of preserving fish so everyone can have them. (AP) � In a westernmost cor- ner of North Carolina known as Murphy is a Christian theme park where salvation is free and the readin' is easy. The Ten Commandments lay splayed across a mountainside in white concrete letters 5 feet high and 4 feet wide. A giant staircase climbs toward heaven, lined with 29 monuments inscribed with Bible verses. Atop a 75-foot tower, an elec- tric star of Bethlehem glows in the night. Then there's a 150-foot cross, a stone replica of Golgotha, a bap- tismal pool, gospel theater and com- bination lunch countergift shop. Around the Country (AP) - The rising number of heat wave victims is overwhelming the resources of the county morgue and city funeral homes in Chicago. The city's death toll rose to 199 today, with around 100 bodies at the morgue and about 350 in funeral homes still to be examined. Cook County Medical Exam- iner Edmund Donoghue estimated 65 percent of the latest deaths would eventually be classified as heat-related, partly because heat needs only to be a contributing fac- tor, not a direct cause of death, under the county's guidelines. (AP) - Never mind that five astronauts were circling Earth aboard space shuttle Discovery, and that one of their windows was gouged by a micrometeorite. NASA's last shuttle crew, just back from Russia's space station Mir, stole the show in Cape Canaveral, Fla. Tuesday with pictures and de- scriptions of the dramatic docking as well the more mundane aspects of long-term space travel. Although an avid newspaper reader, American astronaut Norman Thagard said there was nothing in particular that he felt he missed in terms of news during his nearly four months aloft a U.S. space endurance record. Around the World (AP) - When a fireball lit the evening sky and explosions rocked Rio De Janeiro, Brazilians were sure there had been a disaster. But on Monday, fear turned to relief at the surprising absence of serious injuries in Sunday's explo- sions at the navy's biggest arms de- pot Of the 40 military personnel at the island depot, all escaped un- scathed or with minor injuries, the navy said. No civilians were hurt Rec center contractor broke New contractor to complete project, delays expected Tambra Zion News Editor Lott Constructors Incorporated, the contractor hired to build ECU'S $17.9 million recreation center, is out- of-business. "We are actively going out-of-busi- ness said Betty Rohde, a field office manager for Lott. "There's just been a lot of bad decisions and a couple of lawsuits and some bad owners Rohde has been working in the Houston headquarters for the com- pany while their insurer, Aetna, is tak- ing over. "Aetna has had other contractors looking at the IECU contract Rohde said. "Aetna is in control of Lott. but we still expect to be able to complete that project Glen Mims, superintendent for the recreation center construction site, would not comment on the take- over, saying only, "There's going to be some personnel swapping Vice Chancellor for Business Af- fairs Richard Brown said it is doubt- ful anyone will lose his or her job in the transition. "Anybody who's working for Lott will be hired by the new contractor Brown said. He said ECU may incur delays in the project's completion. "It will probably mean some rela- tively small delays in the project as the surety, Aetna, brings in a new general contractor Brown said. "The surety is required to make that hap- pen hiring a new contractor He is unsure when a new contrac- tor will take over, but said facility ser- vice employees are working on that now. Director of Facilities Planning. Design and Construction Bruce Flye Jr was unavailable for comment. "The responsibility for having the center) completed falls with the surety bond holder said Assistant Vice Chancellor of Business Affairs Dr. Ceorge Harrel. He was unable to com- ment any further on the subject. "We reported to the board (of trustees) meeting that we expect a delay until sometime in the first quar- ter of '96 based on what we can see happening. We hope we are proved wrong Brown said. He said ECU will not lose any money on the project. "All state projects require that the contractors submit performance bonds so that if something like this does happen, the state of North Caro- lina is protected The Lott branch responsible for the Greenville project is out of McLane, Virginia. Brown said Lott was chosen to build the recreation center through a comptetitive bid. "Many of these large contractors work all over the country Brown said. He said Lott is also working projects at UNC-Charlotte and Chapel Hill, two of ECU's sister schools in the university system.

School of Medicine channels to community Cable channel set to broadcast to patients in August Andi Powell Phillips Staff Writer The ECU School of Medicine is going on the air. The school is planning to present a medical channel on public access cable television beginning on August 1 this year. "This is not the type of public access channel where someone will walk in and put on a program said Charles Kesler, assistant director of the center for health sciences commu- nication. "This will be scheduled medi- cal programming Dr. Dalynn Badenhop, director of the cardio-pulmonary rehabilitation program, and assistant professor at the medical school, said that to begin with, the channel will provide general medical programming applying to gen- eral populations. "All patients who go through our rehabilitation program are exposed to programs on educational topics to prevent further problems from devel- oping Badenhop said. "Some of these educational topics do not apply to the general population, but a num- ber of them do indeed, from a preven- tative medicine standpoint, apply to the average citizen. We are going to identify two to four of those educa- tional presentations that we can be- gin to present over this cable chan- nel Badenhop offered two examples of presentations that will appear on the Institutional Channel. "One topic we will present that does apply to the population of North Carolina is proper guidelines for ex- ercising in the heat he said. "Another is reading food labels. Our dietitian gives a presentation to all of our car- diac patients on identifying sources of fat and cholesterol in their diets, which could also be helpful to the average person concerned about their diet In the future, in addition to pro- viding general medical programming, doctors may be able to use the chan- nel to provide specific programming to monitor individual cardiac patients at home, Kesler said. "There may be a select group who have heart or lung disease for whom See MED page 3 Consistent lewd remarks, jokes or overt sexual propositions can be considered sexual harassment in a court of law, and ECU has a policy to deal with the problem. Dr. Mary Ann Rose, assistant to the chancellor and Equal Employment Opportunity (EEO) Officer, said the policy on sexual harassment has been in place for more than 10 years. "We've had a policy prohibiting sexual harassment since 1981 Rose said. "Now, the language of the policy was revised about three to four years ago The main change was to have the policy state exactly what actions are considered sexual harassment. "There are two kinds of sexual harassment Rose said. "One is where there is an actual offer of exchange, 'Let me tell you how you can get an "A" in this class just a straight out offer. That is one type. But, the courts have held that to be sexually harassed does not have to be that. Instead, there is no outright offer of an ex- change, but there is what the courts call a hostile environment, and that means jokes, lewd comments and �i sexually-oriented gestures. "The courts have held like if there is joking and lewd comments, it can- not be just one joke. It has to be so severe as to make the environment very intimidating to the victim. There have been cases where a pervasive pattern of sexually gross remarks, gestures, jokes have been present, so there is never an offer of a sexual exchange. But there doesn't have to be Rose said the hostile environ- ment-type of sexual harassment is the more com- mon. With this type, the victim is more likely to have witnesses present. The typical scenario most people think about in sexual harassment is a man harassing a woman. However. Rose said sexual harassment can also involve a woman harassing a man, a man harassing another man or a woman harassing another woman. "The courts don't make a distinc- tion Rose said. "We would treat it as sexual harassment. It doesn't mat- ter if it is a man who is the victim or a woman who is the victim. It's most frequently the woman who is the vic- tim, though, in the cases we've got- ten Students who have sexual harass- ment complaints against any employee of the university can speak with Rose in her office in 104 Spilman building. Rose said the procedure is simple and all complaints are looked into. "It's not real complicated Rose said. "I think people sometimes think it's shrouded in secrecy Basically, the student goes to the EEO office and talks ever the com- plaint with Rose. Rose then decides whether or not the complaint is a vio- lation of the university's sexual harass- ment policy. If it is not, Rose ei- ther tells the stu- dent how to handle the situa- tion, or, if she cannot, she tells them where to go to receive help. However, if she identifies the complaint as a violation, Rose listens to the student's side of the story then goes and listens to the employee's side of the story. Occasion- ally, the stories are the same, and there is no investigation. 'That does happen Rose said, it really is usually that the person thought that the other person was romantically interested in him, and We've had a policy prohibiting sexual harassment since 1981 � Dr. Mary Ann Rose Equal Employment Opportunity Officer See PROTECT page 3 Nature This hawk guards his prey, one of ECU'S many squirrels, as onlookers pass by.

ECU Student Patrol may be just what you're look- ing for - if you're willing to wear a uniform and work nights. Students involved with the patrol are non-confrontational and avoid any fight situations. Even if they are wit- nesses to a crime in progress, they are required to call an officer for help. Director of Crime Prevention Al Fonville said the Student Patrol "is very productive. I feel that they are the eyes and ears in a lot of situa- tions There has been a shortage of student patrol lately, due in part to the summer sea- son. "There are 13 students working on the patrol this summer, and dur- ing the semester there is an average of 25 said Walter F. Meyer, patrol officer. Student Patrol are standing out on their own now, thanks to new uni- forms. The old uniforms were simi- lar to police officer uniforms, light blue-collared shirts with a badge and dark pants. Now the students wear tan shorts and blue T-shirts with the university name, symbol and Student Patrol Unit embroidered on the front Fonville said the change in uni- forms will prevent any confusion be- tween the student patrol and police officers. Student Patrol duties con- sist of security of the residence halls, student escorts across campus at night and providing security at spe- cial events (football and basketball games). "It is not an aggressive job, we are there for the students on cam pus, to protect them and offer them a safe environment said Brian Gibbs. student patrol employee. Gibbs is a junior majoring in So- ciology, with a focus in law and soci- ety. Gibbs is planning a career in law enforcement and said he feels it has provided him with experience he will need in the future. "I would recommend it to any- one. You get to meet people from all around, and it is a great learning ex- perience Gibbs said. Becoming an employee of the ECU Police Department be- gins with stu- dents filling out detailed applica- tions available at the ECU Police department at 609 East 10th Str. The applica- tion asks for gen- eral informatron and then specific questions. For example: "Have you ever usedsold marijuana and "Have you ever plead guilty to or been con- victed of any crime?" Then the appli- cant will be called for an interview. A background check will be run on applicants to determine any crimi- nal history. There will also be a check on the applicant's driving history, because the Student Patrol are autho- rized to drive state-owned vehicles. During the interview, the applicant is asked for information about them- selves and why they are interested in being on the student patrol. No experience is necessary for the position: all training is given when the students are hired. Each student is required to attend three nights of training. The training includes famil- iarity with the campus, 10 codes on the radio and professionalism in us- ing equipment. For more information contact Amy Lynch, student patrol director at 328-6787. "It is not an aggressive job, we are there for the students on campus, to protect them and offer them a safe environment � Brian Gibbs, student patrol employee Brad Foley Jennifer Hunt Staff Writer torate of Musical Arts from the Uni- versity of Michigan. Because Foley has been at ECU for 16 years, the transition into his new position should be smooth. "I am confident that with his many years of administrative experi- ence, Dr. Foley will build upon the rich traditions of the ECU School of Mu- sic and lead it toward distinctive ac- complishment of its planned goals and objectives said Tinsley Yarbrough, interim vice chancellor for academic affairs. "I look forward to working with him The new dean has a broad role. "I perceive the dean as being the person who initiates ideas, gets people thinking and motivates people to do their jobs well Foley said. Most students in the school know Foley through his work as assistant dean. He said he wants them to real- ize that he is striving to make the school better for their benefit "I want students to know I have this goal in mind he said. Foley said the quality of the School of Music at ECU is unsurpassed in this region, and the goal is to make it the best in the state. "There are so many great faculty and students here that it is exciting to have a chance to work with them at this level he said. Foley said the School of Music will also continue to heavily promote the arts, dance and theatrical programs. Foley has presented over 300 solo and chamber music performances since coming to ECU, including perfor- mances this year at the convention of the National Association of College Wind and Percussion Instructors at Saint Xavier College in Chicago, and with the Mailarme Chamber Players in Durham. He has held positions as regional director and treasurer of the North American Saxophone Alliance and was acting editor of the organization's jour- nal, The Saxophone Symposium. Sev- eral articles by Foley have been pub- lished in North Carolina Music Edu- cator, journal of the North Carolina Music Educators Association. He re- corded Brad Foley in Concert, a 1984 release of the Educational Music Ser- vice. Foley has also been involved in the cultural and community life of Pitt County. He served as president of the Greenville Choral Society and Interna- tional festival, as well as performing with Greenville's Sunday in the Park concerts. He has been a member of the executive boards of the Friends of ECU School of Music and the School of Music Alumni Professional Society. The School of Music is changing its tune. Brad Foley. formerly assistant dean ECU's School of Music, has been promoted to dean. Foley served as assistant dean of the School of Music from 1985 until his appointment as dean on June 1. He served as acting dean for a period in 1991. and has been a professor of saxophone and chamber music since joining the faculty in 1979. Music played a major role in Foley's younger years. "I always seemed to be interested in music. I started playing saxophone when I was 12 years old Fc' y said. Foley attended Ball State Univer- sity in Indiana. While in college, he experimented with other woodwind in- struments, including the clarinet, oboe and bassoon. He pursued his Master's of Music at the University of Michigan, with the goal of teaching at a small college where he would be able to teach several instruments. His first teaching position was at Stephen F. Austin University in Texas, where he taught saxophone, oboe and bas- soon for two years.

"Another possibility is that the channel could become an extension of the on-campus infirmary, so that stu- dents could take advantage of the in- firmary services from their dorm rooms The costs for starting the chan- nel are virtually non-existent, Kesler said. "Right now there is not really any funding, no specific budget for putting it all together, because it is public ac- cess he said. "The cable company is dropping the cable lead into the Brody building and a great deal of the neces- sary equipment is already in place through the telecommunications depart- ment Additional pieces of equipment will be added as they are necessary and, I would imagine, some kind of budget will have to be worked out at that time Kesler said the institutional chan- nel project came about due to the rene- gotiation of Multimedia Cablevision's contract with the city of Greenville, and that part of the contract gave the city six hours of access to the channel ev- ery month. Katie Veilleux. of Greenville's pub- lic information office, said in an earlier interview that the city wanted those six hours because they would be able to access the high-tech capabilities of cable. "We did not necessarily want to provide programming during those six hours per month, but wanted to have access to the information highway and the interactive network she said. "Right now, there is not a lot of tele- conferencing taking place, but in the future, government may choose to use it as a way to do business. We want to lay a foundation for a good and cost- effective way to do business Veilleux also said that city officials are pleased to have the medical school providing programming to the commu- nity. "We think the programming the medical school will provide will benefit all of the citizens Veilleux said. "We feel the medical school is the best equipped facility to originate program- ming on an access channel here is a student saying, "Oh, my gosh, what am 1 going to do here?' The pro- fessor is thinking that she liked him. That does happen. Then I don't do an investigation. 1 just deal with that" An investigation begins when stu- dent and employee stories conflict. Then Rose asks the student who she has told about the incident and tries to find witnesses to the incident Also, the employee's colleagues could be interviewed if they are potential wit- nesses. Finally, Rose weighs the informa- tion and "takes the action that is in- dicated Actions range from warnings to termination. "If the evidence says yes this is a valid complaint then we might warn the offender, we might penalize the person, we might terminate the per- son - there are a range of things we might do Rose said. "Our procedures are fair. They do tend to bring forth the truth. They are fair to both par- ties, the accused and the accuser. There is fairness built into them, I feel, and I've done this for a while Rose said the EEO office is a buffer between the student and the accused faculty member. The student does not have to deal with the situa- tion any more unless it escalates into a court trial. All records of sexual harassment cases are considered confidential, and Rose said she urges all nersons, while involved in an investigation, to use discretion and not speak about the incident. "We do try to protect people's confidentiality, people's reputations Rose said. "We don't talk about it, except to the extent we have to. We talk to the attorneys. We talk to the people involved, but these are person- nel actions. These are protected by state laws, so we're not able to dis- cuss it" While Rose deals with student employee harassment problems, Dr. Ronald Speier, dean of students, handles studentstudent harassment problems.

"We have a student code of conduct that says there are certain behaviors that you shouldn't conduct" The student code of conduct is located in The Clue Book. Speier said if a student sexually harasses another student he or she can be held account- able for violating one of the code's rules, such as rule D, which states. "Harassing, abusing or threatening another by means other than the use or threatened use of physical force Other types of harassment could be abusive, vulgar language, in person or on the phone. "The dean of students concerns himself or herself, the associate dean, with student misconduct typically stu- dent misconduct directed at another student That's typically what we get involved in If a student abusively speaks back to a professor and is disruptive in class, then the student is in violation of the code and the dean of students handles the situation. However, if the faculty member is abusive of harasses a stu- dent the dean of students' office does not get involved. Speier said if that happens, he makes way for another administrative official to deal with the problem and advises the student where to go for assistance. Speier said the policy is needed to set limitations and boundaries be- tween faculty and students so the uni- versity can run smoothly. "It's sort of like why we have speed limits and why we have other rules and regulations, for example, academic in- tegrity because these things happen Speier said. "And, because these things happen, the victim needs to have a policy or procedure to follow to have redress of the grievance. "Our policies are out there to pro- tect the people who don't do these kinds of behaviors also. In other words, to provide structure in our environ- ment so that people know that they are here for a certain purpose - to get a degree or to get a good education. If these kinds of things happen to them, there is somebody out there. There are professional people that have training in this area to respond to these kinds of conflicts, so they can be resolved.

Assistant Police Chief John Taylor's resignation a few weeks ago caused quite a stir among local media; most chan- nels had to grasp at straws or rely on shaky sources to get their stories, because no one at ECU was talking. Granted, what two adults do on their own time is their own business, but rumor has it that the police department got hot enough to make an erotic home video. Taylor's res- ignation followed an investigation of the matter. What kind of investigation, how long did it take, how much money was spent? What's the conclusion? We don't know because nobody would tell us. We don't want any gory details to embarrass anyone, we just want to know the truth. The situation was undoubt- edly embarrassing for the university, but that's no reason to keep everything in the closet. How many skeletons does ECU have stored away after years of dodging the media on events administrators didn't see as appropriate anyway? The public has a right to know about the ECU Police department incident because Taylor broke a university policy which states that students and employees should not be involved in amorous relations. Whether or not that policy is justified has nothing to do with the fact that a prominent uni- versity employee broke it and no one wants to admit it The big question is was this affair one of consensual adults or was this female coerced into risque activity for fear of losing her job? We don't know because the matter was quickly swept under the large blanket frequently referred to as person- nel. That's their way of putting a hermetic seal on the matter for good. The Equal Employment Opportunity of- fice, as well as six other campus offices, directed all in- quiries to Assistant University Attorney Greg Hassler. Any- one could have heard the smile on the man's face as he continued to give the same answer to each and every ques- tion asked of him. Basically, no comment. If John Taylor is guilty of any wrongdoing, justice should be served and the university itself should make efforts to let the public know about it. The silence gener- ated from this incident will undouotedly deter anyone in a similar situation from standing for their own rights. Who is going to take action against harassment or coercion if they think nothing will be done about it? We have a right to know when someone's rights have been violated, espe- cially when the violator is a police officer we have grown up to trust. If Taylor is innocent, why did he leave with so many unanswered questions? No one, except the media, has said Taylor had been involved in any wrongdoing, so why'd you pack your bags so fast, John? Hassler's press release stated Taylor resigned following an investigation, but no accusations were made. How are we supposed to learn the truth when the uni- versity continually keeps its mouth shut? Probably they'd rather hear the awful rumors instead of actually admit- ting something happened. Silence won't make anything go away. ECU administrators need to think about these recent events long and hard and maybe start talking about them instead of.trying to forget them. When something happens in your backyard, you have a right to know about it. Why hasn't ECU mentioned the incident that occurred in the Police department? There's scandal in the air where people are supposed to protect us. We want some answers, so start talking. Heat should be taken seriously We're havin' a heat wave, but there's no reggae music in the back- ground, no palm trees swaying in the tropical breeze, no fruity rum drinks in coconut shells. People are dying all over the country. In New York on Saturday, a news anchor estimated that 200 people per hour were being rushed to the hospital with heat-re- lated illnesses. There is news footage from the mid-West of cows dropping dead in the fields. It is frightening the destruction that is being caused by the raise in temperature, but what is even scarier is that many people don't seem to be taking it seriously. Of course, we are not seeing the kind of devastating heat here in North Carolina that they are in other parts of the country, but nevertheless, the temperatures here are also danger- ously high, for people and animals. It is necessary for all of us to be a little more cautious right now, and use a little common sense. First of all, take care of your- selves, pay attention to how you are feeling. It doesn't take long to go from light-headed to passed-out when you're out in this heat, especially if you're drinking alcohol (not that you would be). Andi Powell Phillips Opinion Writer Your dog is not capable of reasoning, yo are cracking the windows isn't going to help. But equally as important as tak- ing care of yourselves, is taking care of those who cannot take care of them- selves. If you happen to know of any elderly or ill people living alone, es- pecially if they don't have air condi- tioning, check in on them, make sure they are all right. Let someone know if they don't answer their door. You may feel a little silly if they turn up just fine and dandy, but that's better than how you will feel if they needed help and you didn't do anything. And leave your pets at home No matter how much they seem to want to go with you to the grocery store, say no Your dog is not capable of reasoning, you are! Ask yourself these questions: If 1 take my dog to the grocery store and leave him in the car in 95-degree weather, will it not fry what little brain he has? And, con- sidering that he drinks out of the toi- let, bathes in his water dish, and pees every time the doorbell rings now, can he really afford to lose what little brain he has? I'm being funny (or trying to be, anyway) but it is really very serious. A pet closed up in a stiflinojy hot car can die in the time it takes you to run into the Stop-n-Shop for a Snapple and a bag of BBQ chips. And crack- ing the windows isn't going to help; could you breathe in your car, in this weather, even with the car windows cracked? (And, by the way, the next time I see someone leave an animal in hot car, I'm going to lock them in my trunk and drive around town for a couple of hours!) Basically, I'm just asking you to take care to protect yourselves and others in this nasty weather. We don't want to lose anyone here. And if you don't believe the heat is that serious, just turn on the six o'clock news and look at the devastation going on around us. It is serious.

An eye for a eye for Susan Smith What is wrong with this picture? Woman seat belts children into car. woman pushes car along with children into a lake. Woman admits to killing both her children. There is a long drawn out trail that the taxpayers have to pay for. We all know this is the story' of South Carolina felon Susan Smith, a heartless, screwed up, lying, cheating, racist, cold-blooded killer of babies. I ask you, why should there be a trial. She admitted to killing both of her beautiful, innocent, blond-haired baby boys. She admitted to seat belting both of her God given children into their so-called child safety seats. She admitted to pushing her car occupied by both her beautiful babies down a hill toward a lake. She admitted to watching her eldest son struggle to free himself from his seat with fear in his eyes. She admitted to watching her son scream out for his mother as the car descend down the hill towards an inevitable outcome. I ask you again, why should there be a trial? First, we had to declare her competent to stand trial. She was com- petent enough to push her innocent babies into a lake, I believe she is com- J.D. Heath Opinion Columnist Why should the citizens have to burden the cost of trial that is useless in the first place? petent enough to stand trial. Now we have to shelter, clothe and feed this murderer of babies before, and dur- ing a definitely lengthy trial. All this just to convict her of a hideous crime she has already admitted to commit- ting. What is the point? The citizens of Union, South Carolina were just informed that if the trial is in fact a lengthy trial they wood have to burden the cost in the form of increased local taxes. Is this right? Hell no! Why should the citizens of that grief stricken town have to bur- den the cost of a trial that is useless in the first place? People exclaim that she has the constitutional right to trial by jury. She has a right to an impartial and unbiased jury. That means that there can be no citizens from the town of Union. That a.so means that there can be no mothers admitted to the jury, no fathers, no grand parents. Who is left? There is not one person in this country who can be impartial to such a haneous crime. Susan Smith doesn't deserve jack after what she did. After she is convicted and the expense of housing her is paid, the taxpayers will then have to pay to have her put to death in a humane way. Does she deserve to die in a humane way? No Way! Did her children die in a humane way? No! She doesn't de- serve any sympathy at all. I feel that the deputies that es- corted Smith to the Union County Courthouse should have done the whole country a favor by uncuffing her and throwing her to the ar gry mob which had formed outside the building. That is the only fitting end to a killer of babies. The children of the corn live On Sunday night I was starting to get desperate for an idea for the next issue's column, so I did the one thing that never fails-I whistled up my friend Casey and we went out looking for one. Casey is my ideal choice for chauf- feurs anytime, partly because he has the innate ability to lead me right to the next potential story like a bug to a porch light but also because he owns a newly restored '57 Chevy convertible which is his pride, joy, and reason for Irving. It was midnight still early yet so we decided to put in some driving time be- fore investigating the downtown bar cir- cuit (another old reliable). As things sometimes go, nothing was happening anywhere, and the downtown scene was deader than Dillenger, so we let our path wander out to the fringes of town, to the long stretches of open road where Casey could indulge his love of accelera- tion without fear. We'd been heading east for maybe 10 minutes when we saw the group of hitchhikers by the side of the road. There were four of them, all girls, standing in a loose line on our side of the highway, all of them with their thumbs out They were dressed in the sloppy man- ner that suggested that they had just missed the grunge fad and had the sullen, petulant look that clearly said that they knew it too. The oldest one looked to be about 1, the youngest 13 or 14. Casey immediately began letting off the accelerator and thumped on the right- hand blinker to signal the hitchers that we were pulling over. I immediately pressed down on his knee with one hand to get the car speeding up and thumped off the blinker with my other hand to signal that .Mill I.L Brian Wright Opinion Columnist The trio robbed him, attempted to steal his car, and the two 14-year- olds stabbed him to death. we were not pulling over after all, sorry. "Hey he exclaimed, more in protest than surprise. The car went back up to 65 and shot past the rag-tag little band, none of which looked too happy with us. One of them even gave a signal of her own at our rap- idly disappearing backs, and it was definately not a wave. "What'd you do that for, man?" Casey was wanting to know. I knew that Casey, for all his faults due mostly to being an irresponsible lu- natic pervert, could never say no to any- one who needed help. His heart was in the right place, but I just wanted to make sure that it stayed there, and I told him so. When he asked what I meant I rum- maged around in my bag and came up with the Friday paper, and showed him the article about the latest sign of the times, the late Kulwarn Dhiman, of Toronto, Canada. Apparently. Mr. Dhiman, a janitor who had both a wife and an infant son, was driving to the local video store to rent a tape when he was flagged down by three schoolgirls, two 14-year-olds and one 15. After he stopped, the trio robbed him, at- tempted to steal his car, and the two 14- year-olds stabbed him to death. The two younger girls have been charged with manslaughter, and now Calgary prosecutors are trying to decide whether to try them in a juvenile court, where the maximum sentence for man- slaughter runs at about three years, or to try them as adults, where a conviction could get them life in prison. Casey gave a low whistle after I'd fin- ished skimming the article for him in the orange glow of the car's cigarette lighter. He was quiet for a few miles, breaking his straight-ahead stare only for the infrequent glance into the rearview mirror. "But come on, man he sudderuy insisted, "a pack of kids? They might have really needed help Chance you have to take, I replied. I vaguely remembered there being a ser- vice station not far up the road, and in- structed Casey to keep an eye peeled for it so he could pull over and so I could call the police. If they need help, I told him, thaf s ;hat the cops are for. If they're just try- ing to get to the beach, then they should have waited until morning to start hitch- ing. Casey still didn't appear completely convinced. "Put what ever happened to the 'Good Samaritan' thing, man?" he asked as we turned into the gravel park- ing lot and slowed to a halt "He bled to death by the side of the road up in Canada I told him, and got out to use the pay phone. y r' i n � in fli cmtvmmwm Wednesday, July 19, 1995 The East Carolinian � ICE e4tacviattIRevtecv �HBME Down home cooking awaits outside of town TEC Reviewer will walk a mile for Barn barbecue Brandon Waddell Assistant Lifestyle Editor Just off the beaten path, the Bar B Que Bam is different from any other lo- cal restaurant I know, because I've eaten at virtually all of them (increased waist diameter and frustration when I step on my scales prove that). But the fact is, the Bar B Que Bam serves up the best bar- becue in Pitt County. it's different from all other area res- taurants in the sense that the Bam is located about five miles outside of Greenville; it not only tastes, but feels like the country. The Bar B Que Bam is located off West Fifth Street a few miles past the Medical Center. The Bar B Que Bam is bordered to the right by acres and acnes of open fields, urban civilization completely absent To the left of the Bam, barbed wire fences in three majestic horses. The wooden rocking chairs on the front porch of the place are reminiscent of Sunday dinner at Grandma's. The pig decorated mail- box and tiny gravel parking lot truly complement the atmosphere. Much as the name of the restau- rant implies, the building is actually a bam. Or at least it's a dead ringer for one judging by outer appearances. The special is, of course, barbecue. Several different meal combinations give the con- sumer the reigns of control. Literally starving, I ordered myself a small combination dinner. A couple minutes later, the best-looking barbecue and chicken dinner I've ever seen was staring me in the face. Along with the barbecue and chicken come barbecued potatoes, cole slaw, unlimited homemade hushpuppies and choice of either green beans or baked beans. This meal couldn't have been bet- Looking strikingly similar to serves up farm-hand-sized Photo by KEN CLARK a Hallmark postcard, the Bar B Que Barn portions to loyal clientele. ter. The barbecue and chicken melted in my mouth, the fresh cole slaw and evenly cooked potatoes were perfect and the cashier probably got tired of seeing my face at the counter for more hushpuppies every 10 minutes. About halfway through the small-sized meal (apparently they use this term very loosely) I had to loosen up the shrinking belt around my waist I wouldn't consider any part of the order to be "small" by any means, except for the price. Any small dinner and a bottomless iced tea or soda costs about $5.1 would have loved to try one of the homemade desserts available, but I was so stuffed that I couldn't have possibly eaten another bite. The Bar B Que Bam has few em- ployees on the payroll, but the manage- ment certainly hired the right ones. Cus- tomer satisfaction is their top priority. Their approach to service is old-fash ioned. Not only was I greeted with a smile, but they also seemed to be genuinely glad to have me visiting their restaurant Once during the meal, the owner even made a special trip to my table and asked, "Is everything okay? Can I get anything else for you today?" Whenever I'm in the mood for minced pig and excellent service, I'll drive off the beaten path; right past Parker's and "B's" Barbecue to The Bar B Que Bam. Overall, I couldn't rec- ommend a better way to spend an afternoon than one spent at the Bar B Que Bam. Both the food and the atmosphere are top-notch and the Bam doesn't skimp on portions, either. A small dinner is plenty of grub for anyone. Needless to say, I haven't even seen a large one. Homoerotic novel wins praise Ronda Cranford Staff Writer Are you ready for some confusion? Think you've got political correctness all figured out? Well, get ready for a kick in the head. Darieck Scott's Trai- tor to the Race makes you take a new look at things. Kenneth and Evan are lovers. They live together in New York and they're both good looking actors. The fact that these men love each other is clear, but it's also clear that racial tension exists in their relation- ship. Kenneth is black; Evan is white. Both men have auditioned for roles on a soap opera. Since Evan's blonde, blue-eyed looks are more marketable than Kenneth's, he gets called back to audition for the show's leading heartthrob. Kenneth gets called back for an audition as an orderly. Evan's career depends on his heterosexual image, so he has to keep his relationship with Kenneth a secret which is uncom- fortable. Kenneth feels cut off from the rest of the black community be- cause he's gay and harbors guilt about the fact that he's dating a white man. Navigating this relation- ship is difficult for them both; they have to manage the roles they play in the outside world without compro- mising the roles they play in their pri- vate lives. At the center of this story is Kenneth's cousin Hammet We don't see much of this character alive. In the first chapter he's out cruising the boardwalk, looking for men, when he becomes the unfortunate witness to the gang rape of a prostitute. The white perpetrators of this crime rape him as well, before they beat him to death. This incident begins the conflict in the story. Kenneth sees the murder of his cousin as an act of gay bashing, so he nd some friends get involved in a gay rights demonstration in Hammet's name. This is an act of hy- pocrisy, since Kenneth didn't have the Photo Courtesy of Dutton Press time of day for his cousin before his death. Kenneth describes himself as a "Postmodern Intellectual of Color and as one of those he's too good to associate with the less sophisticated Hammet In this way, he has stereo- typed himself - made himself into something which limits his ability to be himself. Because Hammet was killed by white men, Evan feels as if he were somehow involved in the crime. He too has lost his sense of who he is in his relationship with Kenneth and begins to see himself as a "white man a ste- reotype. Scott portrays these characters brilliantly. He walks around inside their heads cataloguing thoughts with total precision. Both Kenneth and Evan are absorbing, real people. The quirky way Kenneth uses his free time ' to project himself into the minds of people he sees reflects his per- sonality as someone who has lived his life on the outside of things. Evan's way of looking at the world reveals a man who is more connected to his family and com- munity. Evan's way of looking at the world reveals a man who is more connected to his family and community. The way he associates so many things he sees around him with old science fiction mov- ies is both funny and reveals his tendency to be an escapist Traitor to the Race attempts to show us that in many ways, we have replaced bad old stereotypes with bad new ones. Stereotypes have no place within the confines of a personal, intimate relation- ship, but outside pressure is al- ways there. Everyone needs to belong to a larger group and larger groups require that one must live up to one's own expec- tations. These expectations can be lim- iting to individuals. Getting outside of it all, getting down to who you really are and what you really need, is not easy. This book is like that green salsa that some restaurants serve. Some people love it but others are overpow- ered by it. If steamy, homoerotic scenes and racial issues bother you, maybe you'd better order breadsticks instead. Frigid Memories File Photo This week temperatures soar into the 90s as summer school gradually comes to a close. In these dog days of summer, it's hard to recall "Jack Frost nipping at your nose It's even more difficult to remember such a peaceful winter scene of downtown Greenville. Pocahontas lacks explorer's spirit Ike Shibley Staff Writer Perhaps America has not yet been around long enough as a coun- try to have developed its own unique set of captivating fairy tales; perhaps the Disney animation department has been overworked by releasing a new car- toon almost every year for a decade; perhaps the cre- ative forces behind Pocahontas were just not in a cre- ative mood. Most likely a combina- tion of all three fac- tors combined to make Disney's new- est full-length ani- mated feature, Pocahontas, the most disappointing cartoon released from the studios in nearly a decade. Disney's animation crew has been on a down hill slide ever since creating Beauty and the Beast, the film many (including this critic)consider the greatest animated achievement of all time. Aladdin was enjoyable (and lots of fun) but for- gettable. The Lion King had the power of myth to drive it along with the snarling sarcasm of Jeremy Irons but had flat songs and a rather dull story for adults. Pocahontas has ab- solutely nothing for adults, unin- spired songs and voices more fit for Saturday morning cartoons than a feature-length film. Pocahontas expands on the his- torical facts of the Powhatan Indian named � '��' Pocahontas who saved Cap- tain John Smith's life. In the hands of Disney, Pocahontas be- comes a larger- than-life tale with easily identifiable vil- lains and he- roes - so iden- tifiable that both good and bad characters are bland. Disney is beginning to borrow from itself a bit too liberally. The be- ginning of Pocahontas looks strik- ingly similar to the beginning of The Little Mermaid, complete with sail- ors and song. The willow tree in Pocahontas looks just like willow in the scene for the song "Kiss the Girl" See DISNEY page 7 Pocahontas has absolutely nothing for adults, has uninspired songs and Saturday morning cartoon voices. CD. Reviews The ChinadoU Tango Kris Hoffler Staff Writer Whether it's good or bad, it's al- ways nice to hear something original. The Chinadoll's new disc Tango is just that; original in concept but not quite as good as it could be. Tango is the second full-length release from The ChinadoU, a band composed of two people that go by Timothy and Robin. They said they wanted a band that looked like Spandau Ballet and sounded like the Velvet Underground. Well, I don't know what they look like, but they sure don't sound like the Velvet Un- derground. They sound like a lot of the techno bands that are out today. The Lords of Acid, My Life with the Thrill Kill Cult, and even New Order come to mind. However, they are nowhere near as good as New Order. But that is just the music, which is probably the least interesting aspect of the disc. The lyrics to the songs, the de- sign of the sounds and the theme of strange love that runs throughout is what makes Tango good. It's sort of like really good poetry (or at least in- teresting poetry) read over synthesiz- ers and drum machines. The members of the band describe this album as "emotional impressionism" and "heroin I think guerrilla love and sex poetry that will end up in the bargain bin of dance mix rejects is a better description. Some of the songs are like short little poems read over soundscapes. like the opening song, "Creation The female member of the group, Robin, reads a poem with a voice heavy laden in sexuality in this opening song. "I am in love, and I make love she says, "Exclusively to my godThe god of creation The first 10 tracks on the disc deal exclusively with sex and love and the perversion thereof, a theme seems to emerge that puts sex on a dirty pedestal and places love in the gar- bage heap of the greatest lies ever told. "Happy Birthday" is one track that does both. It opens with a nasty sounding phone sex voice and jumps See TANGO page 7 Bucket "A Drop in the Bucket" is just whut it claims to be: a very tiny drop in the great scream- ing bucket of American media opinion. Take it as you will. Mark Brett Lifestyle Editor Recent debate in the Sen- ate, spearheaded by conserva- tive presidential hopeful Bob Dole, has focused on increased levels of sex and violence on television. Dole's argument places blame for any number of social ills on the good old boob tube. Here we go again. Remember second lady Tip- per Gore's crusade against rock 'n' roll back in the '80s? Re- member the 10 million attacks on pornography that have been rallied in our lifetime? Remem- ber when Ozzy Osborne and Judas Priest were accused of driving troubled suburban teens to suicide with their ri- diculous heavy metal posing? Remember Ice-T's "Cop Killer?" Seems like we've been around this block before, doesn't it? In our ever-more-des- perate search for The Source of All Evil in the Universe, we seem to have spent the last 10 years lost somewhere in the entertainment industry. Granted, television doesn't have entirely dean hands in our society. Ink has been spilled in this very column on how TV's "give-the-people-what-they- want-and-nothing-else-at-all" mentality has aid:d in the dumbing down of America. But that's why this current attack worries me. Dole isn't at- tacking the vacuum-packed fluff that over-populates the tube. No. he's all for that. In his at- tacks on sex and violence. Dole is leveling his sights at shows that actually (gasp!) challenge the viewer. He's attacking many critically-acclaimed series that deal with pressing issues such as ER or, closer to Dole's point, the provocative NYPD Blue. That's right. All of America's woes can be traced back to Dennis Franz's bare ass. Okay, that was a cheap shot. But Dole makes it so easy Anyway, back to my point. Dole is making that same old tired argument Tipper used so ineffectually against rock 10 years ago. If our society is suf- fering from sexual and violent crime, then the sex and violence in our entertainment must be causing the problem. But I think he's putting the cart betore the horse.

The Nielsons es- timate the number of homes tun- ing in to a given show. A series that does poorly in the Nielsons won't be long for this world. The Nielsons rule TV. If that's the case, the au- dience must have demanded to see more sex and violence. Let's face it. Human beings like sex and violence. It's easy to like them; they're bred into us as the two most fundamental aspects of survival in the wild. If you don't have sex. your species won't last very long. If you don't commit acts of violence to defend yourself, the predators are going to quite liter- ally have you for lunch. Ultimately, TV is a quick fix for most Americans, as much as any drug.

That can change attitudes and lead to more sexual and violent crime. But that's all the more reason to defend XYPD Blue. It gives us our nudie shots, but it also makes us think. Sexual relations are never as simple as two bodies colliding, and good drama like this show rec- ognizes that fact. This kind of thoughtful coverage doesn't lend itself to the attitudes that lead to crime. Of course. I'd be willing to bet that future presidential candidate Dole doesn't really care in the first place. Next year is an election year, and Dole needs an issue that will generate lots of media attention, but that won't requne him to do anything. Tough issues like unem ployment or the federal budget would only get him in trouble. But TV makes a good scapegoat. - - yKijCLIP&SAVE DISNEY from page 5 in The Little Mermaid. When Pocahontas dives off a cliff she looks like the young hoy in The Rescuers Down Under. Once again Disney lias used a heroine without a mother, just like Ariel. Belle and Jasmine. Cartoons must admittedly bor- row somewhat from the past but Pocahontas lakes tar too many lib- erties in borrowing and because of it cannot generate any interesting characters with a lite of their own. One annoying device used by the animators to try to enliwn the oth- erwise soggy script is multi-colored leaves blown all around Pocahontas. In many scenes colored symbols blow around her as well as leaves. 1 he ef- fect is trying to ineffectually convey (one can only assume) magic. The rainbow of leaves and symbols look lake and contrived. Pocahontas could he in an MTV video instead of 17th century Virginia. The voices are flat. Owen C.leiberman made this comment about John Smith in Entertainment Weekly. "He's voiced by Mel Gibson. who, unaccountably sounds like Rob l.owe doing Mel Gibson That effec- tively parallels my thoughts about Gibson's performance. Neither Russell Means, as Pocahontas' father nor David Odgen Steirs (who was Cogswoth in Beauty and the Beast), as the villainous Gov- ernor Ratcliffe, breathe life into their characters. The songs do nothing to redeem the characters. The lyrics tell little about the character and the melodies are as bad as Muzak. Worse than the songs in The I.ion King, the songs in Pocahontas are forgotten imme- ftu Save $2.00 on processing ANY Color C-41 35mm Film 4X6 Prints.

In one sense 1 guess the film is successful; the uninspired animation is perfectly suited for the bland voices and even blander songs. Children may enjoy Pocahontas for its dashing hero and sprightly heroine. They will also like a raccoon and a hummingbird that play with Pocahontas. Adults may not only find the film dull, they may also be angered by its content. The Disneyfication of his- tory, where the indians and white settlers live happily every after, is nearly as offensive as the historical theme park the company wanted to build in Virginia. With the steady decline in the quality of Disney's animated features I almost dread seeing what will come next. I cannot imagine it could be much worse than Pocahontas. but you never know (after all they did make Robin Hood). On a scale of one to ten. Pocahontas rates a five.

Timothy reads "Love is stress, tensionlove is the salt in the ulcer Love is the loudest silence, the contempt that is heard When words are left unspoken Behind all that is a very exaggerated woman's voice that seems to be in the middle of some really good sex or either she is really good at faking it. This song is sup- posed to be perverted and that idea comes across loud and clear. The last six tracks on this 16- track CD veer away from the love theme and go into poetry and social criticism. My personal favorite is "Up- per Middle Class White Rage where the angst is made to order: "Genera- tion x. reality bites, lolli-pop-pop-pop- palooza! Oh isn't he the greatest? He's the latest In upper middle class white rage Daddy drinks his alco- hol, mother is drunk with religion But nothing numbs me like the MTV and their Upper middle class white rage There is one track that is just a poetry reading. "Where Birds Come From is a reading of about five or six short poems with some weird sounds in the background. The poet even com- ments on the poems after he reads them, usually condemning them. The Chinadoll is basically a per- forming art troop that got their hands on some synthesizers and wrote some poetry about failed love and sex. The music is bad. but I think they really meant for it to sound that way: the lyr- ics are the focus of the album. With- out the words it would be really bad dance music or a porno soundtrack. Overall, this is a good disc just because it is so different: they break out of the mold. It was once said that the tango is a sad thought that can be danced. That definition also applies to The Chinadoll's Tango. � N&& PLAYERS CLUB APARTMENTS � PER MONTH Across from Ficklen Stadium Call 321-7613 COOL DOWN MexljanltestauKinl j" IHLRS.

Chester Ford, Tyrone Hines, Andy McCullough, Jason Parker, Ja- son Smith, and Leland Taylor were all involved in unauthorized calls made on the University of Tennessee's phone system. Overall, 31 students, which included football and basketball players, were handed down penalties. Parker and Taylor were suspended for the 1995 season, and they both were stripped of their grant-in-aids by Head Coach Phil Fulmer. The other Volun- teer football players each lost a $850 grant-in-aid and two game tickets for the season and were suspended for the regular season home opener against ECU. The remaining UT ath- letes had their grant-in-aids taken away and 16 players will have to per- form 100 hours of community service. "We will not stand by and allow the university's good name to be tar- nished by the actions of some of our athletes Fulmer said. "Our athletes know they enjoy a rare privilege in being allowed to represent the Uni- versity of Tennessee in sports compe- tition. It is our position that in return, athletes must be held to a high stan- dard of responsibility UT Athletic Director Doug Dickey said that the investigation into the unauthorized use of the University's telephone access code is continuing and that further penalties will be as- sessed if developments warrant The absence of Jason Parker on the '95 Volunteer football squad could have the most impact Parker, a 6 foot 198 pound senior free safely, had in- tercepted nine passes in his career.

Twelve years ago. Pam Overton was the sole "Their rules and regulations are governed by the institution first of all, and then secondly by the NCAA � Pam Overton f counselor in the academic advising office at ECU. Now she is the As- sistant Ath- letic Director for Student Development, a program which in- cludes not only academic advising, but other support services as well. 'The academic advising pro- gram was established here for ad- vising student athletes because stu- dent athletes come under different academic regulations than the nor- mal student body Overon said. "Their rules and regulations are governed by the institution first of all, and then secondly by the NCAA. So when they have that double role, it takes an awful lot of just paper- work to keep up with the things that they have to do added Overton. The academic advising pro- gram is a part of the Student De- velopment Program, which is de- signed to enhance the experience of the student-athlete in the univer- sity setting. The primary goals are (1) to promote academic excellence and support the efforts of every student-athlete to earn a degree, (2) to support the development of ath- letic potential with a commitment to sportsmanship and teamwork, (3) to enhance personal develop- ment by emphasizing the qualities of leadership, (4) to establish a com- mitment of service to others as a foundation for a balanced lifestyle and (5) foster the development of meaningful career. The role of the academic advis- ers is not only to make sure ath- letes are taking courses that count for a degree, and that they are mak- ing satisfactory progress towards a degree, but while doing so they are meeting the guidelines of the uni- versity and the NCAA. There is a staff of three full- time counselors, other than Overton, and one part-time coun- selor. They work together to meet the needs of the student-athlete, first as a student, and secondly as an athlete. Other aca- demic support ser- vices are also avail- able. There is a Tu- torial Program available to stu- dents upon request that may be con- ducted individually or in groups. Tu- tors are graduate students and out- standing under- graduate students who are recruited from all departments and are se- lected on the basis of faculty rec- ommendation and knowledge of subject area. There's the Athletes for Edu- cation Speaker's Bureau, where athletes go out and speak in the public school system on the virtues of staying in school and being a "good student in hopes that the youngsters will attempt to give themselves the same opportunity to attend college. Athletes also talk to community groups about the See ECU page 9 son college football publications, and was a strong candidate for first team All-SEC consideration. Another big loss is Tyrone Hines, who will just miss the opening con- test against the Pirates. Hines, a three year starter at linebacker for the Vol- unteers, had 67 tackles as a junior, and is considered one of the hardest hitters in the SEC. ECU offensive coordinator Todd Berry feels that there is going to be some impact on UT with the loss of these players, but he warns not to underestimate the Volunteers. "There will probably be some impact" said Berry. "Obviously, any- time you lose players it changes your offensive and defensive schemes, but I used to coach at UT, and their drop off between first and second team is not that much Photo Courtesy of UT SID Jason Parker was expected to be the starting free safety for UT this season, but due to his involvement in unauthorized phone calls, he was dismissed from the team. Former Pirate pitcher makes it to the "show" after long wait Christopher starring in relief role for Tigers Dave Pond Sports Editor You can't keep a good man down. After shuffling around the minor leagues for 11 years, former ECU hurler Mike Christopher has found a permanent home in the bullpen of historic Tiger Stadium. "I was at Triple-A with Toledo and had 21 saves before I got called up Christopher said. "I'd made the Triple- A All Star team and was getting ready to go play that, but fortunately enough, I got called up to the big leagues So far, things couldn't be better. Christopher earned victories in his first two outings, and has compiled a 3.86 earned run average to date. Basically it was 11 years in the minors until now he said. "I hope that getting off to this good start I can stick with Detroit for a while Upon calling him up to the ma- jor league level from the Tigers' Triple- A affiliate in Toledo, Ohio, Detroit manager Sparky Anderson told the former Pirate that he would become the set-up man for closer Mike Henneman. Anderson went on to say that Chris- topher would be given the opportu- nity to save games if Henneman pitched the night before. "They don't like to pitch Mike back-to-back days, so Sparky said that I'd have a chance to close some games Christopher said. "The majority of my job is going to be to set him up and come in the game in middle re- lief during the sixth, seventh or eighth innings Beyond the added pressures of a major-league call-up, Christopher had to deal with the stigma of being a "They don't like to pitch Mike back- to-back days, so Sparky said that I'd have a chance to close some games � Mike Christopher spring training replacement player. "Some of the veteran guys gave me the cold shoulder the first couple of days he said, "but each day - es- pecially since 1 got off to that good start, they know that I'm there to help the team and just trying to fit right in with them After two seasons a ECU under head coach Gary Overton, Christopher was the New York Yankees' seventh selection in the June 1985 draft, and reached the club's Triple-A af- filiate (Colum- bus) in 1989. "When he came to ECU, he was a tall, gangly young man ECU head baseball coach Gary Overton said. "We knew that if his body devel- oped and his velocity increased, there was no question that he was a pro See TIGERS page 9 NFL gearing up for training camp �i (AP)- Quarterback Kerry Collins' $23 million contract with the Carolina Panthers had an immediate impact in Cincinnati, where the Bengals are trying to sign No. 1 draft choice Ki-Jana Carter. Both former Penn State players are represented by agent Leigh Steinberg. "We're still talking, so I guess that's a good sign said Katie Blackburn, the Bengals' secretary- treasurer said of the Carter negotia- tions. "I thought we were getting pretty close, then Collins signed. Then we had to redo a little bit" The Bengals had been talking about a $6 million signing bonus for Carter. Then Collins, picked No. 5, got $7 million and sud- denly, things changed. On Monday, Collins worked out in full pads and struggled against the Panthers' array of veteran defensive backs. "Pretty easy. He's making me look good with a bad knee said strong safety Bubba McDowell, who is just back after reconstructive knee surgery but put on a dominating dis- play against Collins, who seemed slow and was tipping off his passes. "He's got a lot to learn. He was looking at them all the way McDowell said. "But he's going to get better with time. There's no doubt about that. He's got talent And h's got a fancy contract, a deal that almost certainly was noted by wide receiver Michael Westbrook, who was picked just ahead of Collins at No. 4. Westbrook was missing from Washington's voluntary mini-camp on Monday and could be a signing problem for the Redskins. "Every day he misses, it sets him back said coach Norv Turner, whose quarterback plans were frus- trated last year when Heath Shuler held out for 13 days before signing a club-record, $19.25 million contract. "I don't think it's comparable to the quarterback position, but when he gets here, he's going to have to make up ground Westbrook is reportedly seeking a four-year, $6.5 million deal. Mean- while, the New York Jets satisfied Penn State another first-rounder, tight end Kyle Brady. Brady, the ninth player selected in last spring's draft, agreed to a four- year $5.1 million contract that made him the highest paid rookie tight end in NFL history. According to agents Mike and Mark Clouser, Brady will get salaries of $445,000, $525,000, $630,000 and $735,000 and becomes the seventh highest paidf tight end in the NFL. Quarterback Kordell Stewart, picked by Pittsburgh in the second round, settled for somewhat less in I thought we were getting pretty close, then Collins signed. Then we had to redo a little bit � Katie Blackburn Bengals secretary- treasurer another four-year deal. Stewart agreed to a $1.85 mil- lion contract that includes a $530,000 signing bonus and annual salaries of $240,000, $300,000, $360,000 and $420,000. Tight end Christian Fauria, picked by Seattle from Colorado, reached a three-year deal with Seattle that will reportedly pay him $1.47 million. The Seahawks remain in ne- gotiations with their first-round pick, Ohio State Joey Galloway, who was the eighth overall selection. The Dallas Cowboys call their mini camp "Quarterback School" and No. 1 passer Troy Aikman thinks this is the place for success to start. "I think training camp deter- mines the tempo for the whole sea- son he said. "I think if you perform well, if positive things happen and you feel you can believe in the play- ers around you, then I think a team becomes tremendously confident. "Right now, I like the attitude of this football team, and I like our chances this season Coach Barry Switzer and his staff decided to push back the start of training camp about a week later than normal in a measure to protect players from contact for as long as possible. Switzer said he knows his vet- eran stars are prepared. "I've seen the commitment of Michael Irvin and other players he said. "Michael has been over here running with his pads on to prepare himself to practice in the heat. "Emmitt (Smith) looks like he is in tremendous condition. His weight is down. I think those things are tremendous indicators Steve Logan and his staff can breath a little easier now that her- alded wide receiver Troy Smith from Greenville Rose has passed the SAT on his final try and is eligible for competition as a freshman. Smith, a 6-foot-3, 180-pound Super Prep and Blue-Chip Illus- trated AU-American; shattered sev- eral regional receiving records dur- ing his three year career at Rose. He caught 134 passes for 2,088 yards and 27 touchdowns for Head Coach Lonnie Baker, and was re- cruited heavily by Notre Dame, Texas and South Carolina. Notre Dame head coach Lou Holtz reportedly did not back off on recruiting Smith even after he made his verbal commitment to ECU. "He is what I call a difference- maker recruiting coordinator said Ken Treadway said. "With his speed and ability to jump and catch the football it significantly improves our depth and talent at an already loaded receiver positioa" Head coach Steve Logan envi- sioned on signing date back in Feb- ruary a goal line situation with two big athletes lined up outside, Smith and 6-foot6 Larry Shannon. "Initially, we will use him like we did with Larry this year, using him on fade routes and let him use his athletic ability Logan said. "With both of them lined up oppo- site each other, teams won't be able to double up on Larry Smith recently competed with other North Carolina basketball stars in the East-West Shrine Games, and has not ruled out playing shoot- ing guard for new coach Joe Dooley Another late signee is Roxboro Person wide receiver Lamont Chappell, who has also qualified academically. Chappell is a lanky 6- foot-1, 170 pound player with 4.5 speed who caught 80 passes for 1262 yards and 16 touchdowns, plus three punt returns for scores. He was on the receiving end of passes from North Carolina State signee Jamie Bamett, the Durham Herald Sun Area Player of the Year. Chappell took visits to North Carolina and North Carolina State and was recruited by Florida. All three schools backed off and pur- sued other prospects after it became apparent that Chappell's scores would not qualify him on signing date. "I am really glad I am going to be playing for ECU Chappell said. "They throw the ball a lot and it is definitely my style of offense Smith and Chappell should help make up for the loss of Allen Williams a two year letterwinner at receiver from Rock Hill, SC who caught five touchdowns last season. Williams left school following the spring semester because of academ- ics and personal reasons. On the defensive side of the football the Pirates are hurting es- pecially in the front four with the losses of Jermaine Smith and Roberto Santiago. Santiago, a Woot-2,300 pound nose guard (2 technique in Pirate defensive terminology) from Hackensack. NJ played a lot as a backup to standout senior John Krawczyk last season and was ex- pected to start this year. He at- tended ECU summer school but left shortly after first session and with- drew from school. Santiago was recruited by Syracuse and West Vir- ginia after making All-State his se- See NOTES page 9 is MmmmmmmmUm mmmmmmmmmmim The East Carolinian Wednesday, July 19, 1995 i NOTES from page 8 ECU from page 8 nior year. Smith, a 6-foot-3, 235 pound out- side linebacker, (Leo) was expected to take the place of Carolina Panthers free agent rookie Willie Brookins. The NE Oklahoma A&M All-American Junior College transfer will be transferring to NAIA perennial power Central State (Ohio) where he will be immediately eli- gible upon arrival. Smith who made 13 sacks in four spring scrimmages was one of the best all-around athletes on the team with a 457 40 yard dash time and a 415 pound bench press. Central State coaches envision Smith taking the place of departed NFL first round draft choice Hugh Douglass who was the second pick by the New York Jets in this spring's draft "We base our defense on speed and with the way he can run and hit we defi- nitely will play him at that position Central State assistant Shawn Harding said. "We intend to feature him and let him go after the quarterback. We are still in the process of getting him accepted to school but he should bt elijfble from what I can tell from looking jt his tran- script and we are glad to have him at Central. He is a big-time player Another departure from the Pirate defense is defensive back Nelson Bonilla who transferred a year ago from Wake Forest Bonilla. a very physical cover man was expected to challenge for playing time in the ECU secondary but left school following the spring semester. With these losses in the defensive line JUCO transfers Stacey Whitehead. (W, 295) from New Bern via East Cen- tral CC (Miss.), and Terell Williams (6-3, 285) from West LA CC will have to step up and contribute immediately in the interior of the Pirate front seven. Both come highly touted with Whitehead post- ing 17 sacks and earning M-Mississippi junior college honors and Williams be- ing recruited by several Pac-10 schools and played both ways last season. He played with Southern Cal All-American Keyshawn Johnson while at West LA "Both of those guys will have to play well right away because of our lack of depth in the middle said defensive line coach Cliff Yoshida.

Also, since student-athletes are involved in a training regimen year- round, they usually don't have the opportunity to explore careers. This is where the Career Network comes in. Students are aided in career de- velopment, resumes and thinking about life after college. Each athletic team has their own academic support services as well. For example, the football team has study hall every morning at 7:30. Seminars in academic skills de- velopment are open to all student-ath- letes who wish to attend. Topics in- clude: time management, strengthen- ing memory, note taking, chapter mapping, and test taking. Guest lec- turers who have expertise in these areas assist with the seminars. Finally, there is the Student-Ath- lete Advisory Council, which is to stu- dent-athletes what SGA is to the gen- eral student body. Two members of each athletic team meet with Overton twice a month for leadership training and to address the issues the athletes want to be made known to the ath- letic administration.

"Lasorda and Sparky are two of the best managers ever Christopher said. "Sparky's third on the all-time win list so that speaks for itself. It's great to play under guys like that" In 1992, Christopher received two call-ups from the Cleveland Indians, and compiled a 2.08 ERA during his sec- ond stint under manager Mike Hargrove. However, it was back to Triple-A for the majority of the 1993 season, and a change of uniforms was soon to fol- low. Last season, Christopher joined the Toledo Mud Hens, where he led the squad with 63 appearances and 11 saves. "Mike is a power pitcher with an exceptional slider Overton said. "He's a very tough competitor and won some big ball games for us After playing for the Tigers in spring training this season, all it took was a spectacular first-half to earn the righthander his fourth major-league invitation and a second-half spot in the Tigers' bullpen.

Orientation Director Orientation isn't just for summer anymore. The Office of Orientation and the First-Year Experience will continue to build on information and issues that were introduced to the students in their two and 12 day summer orientation session. These programs will fall under the First-Year Experience component of the office's responsibilities. What will the First-Year Experi- ence be like? Just like the name im- plies, the programs offered under this title will be geared toward a student's first year of school and what he or she might experi- ence. The Office of Orientation and the First-Year Ex- perience has been working with other depart- ments on campus to address issues of growth and de- velopment the stu- dents will encoun- ter throughout their first year. There are five ar- eas that will be emphasized through the First- Year Experience. They are academic achievement, health and well-being, leadership, re- lationships and life philosophy. The focus of the academic achievement component will be as- sisting students with their academic goals and pursuits such as deciding on a major, and succeeding in the classes they have chosen. The health and well-being area will help students make healthy de- cisions about their emotional and physical development. Nutrition, ex- ercise and the lowering of stress are focuses. The activities and programs un- der the area of leadership will help students uncover and further develop their leadership abilities. Students will also find out how to become in- volved in co-curricular activities on campus. One issue addressed in the rela- tionships area will be understanding the importance of establishing a tol- erance and appreciation of the diver- sity of student here at ECU and in the "real world" that students will encounter upon graduation. This area will also foster the students' abilities to engage in healthy relation- ships with others. A life philosophy is something that everyone develops throughout his or her life. This aspect of the First- Year Experience will assist students in developing goals, values and be- liefs that will guide their futures. Through a development of a life phi- losophy, the students will not only learn how to become a positive con- tributor to the ECU campus, but also to the future community they will call home. Students will need to watch for infor- mation about the dates, times and locations of these programs once they get to campus so they don't miss op- portunities to help them suc- ceed during their years at ECU. Another program that was created within the de- partment of Uni- versity Housing Services goes all year in Aycock Resi- dence Hall. Two floors have been reserved specifically for students who have requested to live in an environ- ment made up exclusively of first-year students. The staff on those floors will pro- vide programs geared toward the needs and interests of students who are new to the university setting. Pro- grams offered will complement those that assist students' development in the five First-Year Experience com- ponents. The students who live on these floors will become part of a commu- nity and learning environment that will help them succeed in their first year of college and beyond. Efforts by Orientation and the First-Year Experience, as well as other offices in the Division of Stu- dent Life, have been tremendous, and the programs that will be available will be both exciting and informative. The focus of the academic achievement component will be assisting students with their academic goals and pursuits such as deciding on a major Preview '95 gets students on the right foot Michael Penland Asst. Orientation Director What's new with Preview '95? It's everything we've had before and more. The point is that all new pro- grams during Ori- entation are de- signed to make any student's pre- view experience enjoyable and in- formative. There are many new initia- tives in Orienta- tion programming, such as the mini- drama performances on important is- sues like diversity, substance abuse, sexually transmitted diseases and sexual assault. There will also be a traditions celebration expressing school pride and paarticipation. The cheerleaders, Marching Pirates and Athletic depart- ment have teamed up with Orienta- tion to introduce ECU's tradition of school spirit. Also, a new staff which incorpo- ECU is a university to be proud of rates trained faculty as Orientation assistants has been recruited. Yes, I did mention that faculty will be par- ticipating in many of the programs going on this summer. These new ef- forts will provide a way for experi- enced students and teachers to edu- cate new stu- dents about real issues so they can make in- formed deci- sions. Being new anywhere can be tough, so the fac- ulty Orientation position is also intended to bridge that gap of mystery between profes- sors and freshmen. It's a way of get- ting lines of communication open early, so when a student needs help they know it's really there. Preview '95 is staff, faculty, stu- dents and administration working to- gether to provide an environment that reflects the best of what ECU will have to offer in the coming years. ECU is a university to be proud of and that pride starts from day one! r:n-sz t i viVi'ii's I Sl I KM P.

Find out where you can park, where your parents can parky and how much a ticket will set you back. Okay, new students, there is good news and bad news. Let's start with the bad news. While, overall, first-time students coming to ECU in the fall will be im- pressed by our wonderful campus dur- ing orientation, those who have be- come accustomed to free parking at previous places of residence are in for some culture shock. "Prices for parking permits are going to be the same in the fall as they were in Spring said Pat Gertz, director of ECU Parking and Traffic Services. For those who do not know, those prices were as follows: The cost of parking permits for residents (students living in residence halls) who have earned 32 or more credit hours, freshmen, students living in the residence halls who have earned 31 or less credit hours; and medical commuters are currently $96. Limited permits for students liv- ing off campus and having less than 31 or less credit hours and motorcycle permits are $42 and $15 respectively. Students are to be advised that com- muter permits are invalid on campus after 1 a.m. "What we will do is give students a registration brochure so they can register early for their parking per- mits Gertz said. During Orientation, students will be given a complete packet of infor- mation including a parking map and a parking guide containing more regu- lations about parking along with the fines associated with students who re- ceive tickets for illegal parking. (And, yes, the Department of Parking and Traffic Services does tow.) After all of that here's the good news. The department has made it easier for students to move into resi- dence halls in August Parking close to the residence halls while moving in is not only convenient it is a neces- sity. (Ask any returning student and any veteran parent) There will be several lots and park- ing spaces near the residence halls des- ignated as loading zones with a 30- minute time limit There will be on-duty personnel to provide information and help keep congestion down to a mini- mum. "Students will find this arrange- ment helpful, since so many students will be moving in at once Gertz said. "Students are advised to first unload their vehicles, then move the vehicles to one of the fringe areas designated for parking during move-in. Afterwards they can unpack and set up their rooms. "We will give every new student complete details in the form of bro- chures and pamphlets so we can be sure no one is left in the dark about parking procedures The Parking and Traffic office is located next to the McDonald's on E. 10th Street 20 21 EMERGENCY RD.

ECU recently installed cable televi- sion service in all residence hall rooms, but you need to bring your own TV and coaxial cable to enjoy this service. Many things are fine to bring: stereos, computers, radios, desk lamps are all okay. However, there are several things that cannot be brought into the residence halls. Large capacity microwaves, re- frigerators larger than five cubic feet, freezers, heaters, air condition- ing units, candles and incense, wa- ter beds, weight-lifting equipment and fireworks are all considered contraband by residence hall man- agement.

The following Campus Glossary could save you some headaches. "Professor" means some- one with a PhD. Call these people "Doctor A "Lecturer" is someone with a Master's degree or the equivelent. Often, they're working on a PhD. but have not completed it. A "T.A has a Bachelor's degree and is currently working n a Master's. Many freshman classes and lab classes are taught by T.A.s. "Syllabus" - a guide given on the first day of class which the instructor explains their attendence policy, grading scale and what they expect from each student. "Downtown" - downtown Greenville on Fifth street. A string of establishments from Milano's Pizza to Cubbies restaurant. This is where ECU students spend a vast majority of their spare time. "Rush" - a week-long event used to make students aware of all the fraternities and sororities on campus. "Greek" a generic term for members of all service and social fra- ternities aild sororities. "Pledge" - a new greek member on probation who is not considered to be a brother or sister. "G.C - short for the Gen- eral Classroom Building, located next to the Geology building.

Members of ECU's Residence Hall Association (RHA) are convinced it is not For several years, the RHA has urged students, faculty and staff to stop saying 'dorm' and start say- ing 'residence hall and even recently fined Chancellor Eakin for using the forbidden word. "The use of the word 'dorm' is no longer an acceptable term for on- campus housing said Michelle Reece, RHA president, in a Jan. 10 memo to The East Carolinian. Residence Halls' or 'Halls' for short has a more positive meaning behind it The dif- ference between the meanings of the two words is related to community According to one administrator, the RHA waged this battle to convert vocabulary use as many as 30 years ago in an attempt to improve the resi- dence hall image. But students aren't interested in correct or incorrect terms. "I think it's stupid said Stephanie Fritz, who has lived in resi- dence halls for two years. "I use 'dorm Fritz said she doesn't like living in the "dorms and sees the commu- nity theme as a hindrance. "There's no privacy she said. "People are al- ways coming in your room, so it's pretty hard to study and the bath- rooms are pretty gross Not everyone was as direct "I never really thought about it" said freshman Tony Parham. "I call it a dorm, my cousins always called it a dorm I see it as a community al- ready, so I don't think it matters what you call it" Reece said that often the word 'dorm' brings negative connotations, especially when people connect it with an institution, or a military base. "I guess it's just more or less try- ing to change stereotypes that have been formed Reece said. "The 'd' word has always been a pet peeve of mine We're trying to erase the nega- tive impressions and make on-cam- pus living a more positive experi- ence Reece referred to a dictionary where dorm is defined, among things, as being part of an institution. The American Heritage Dictio- nary defines dormitory as "a room providing sleeping quarters for a num- ber of persons, a building for hous- ing a number of persons, as at a school or resort, a residential community whose inhabitants commute to a nearby metropolis for employment and recreation Reece said the nationwide resi- dence hall organizations strictly en- force the rule against using the 'd' word. A fine of 25 cents is imposed on offenders, which at ECU included Chancellor Eakin. "We fined the chancellor last LEARN. We've made it a lot easier.

Member FDIC year Reece said, "and he dutifully paid it" "I don't know how much I owed by the time I finished there Eakin said with a smile. Some students said the practice of fining is alive and well in ECU resi- dence halls. "That sort of thing got blown out of proportion Reece said. "We don't necessarily fine students - it's now more or less a joke Reece said in hall meetings the rule may be enforced, but not ran- domly in the halls. "It's up to each hall she said. "I don't go and say you have to fine a person Reece said what money is collected goes toward an end-of-the-year party for those who worked hard all year in the residence halls. So what do students think of this strategy to reshape the image of the looming buildings around campus? "OK, let's spend our time doing something completely worthless said senior Meredith Bell, a veteran of on- campus living who now lives off-cam- pus. "That's crazy. 'Dorm' is all it ever was to me, and that's all it will ever be to me The RHA insists there is a strong difference between the two terms, however. "Dorms are places where stu- dents just eat and sleep Reece wrote in her memo. "University Housing offers students an opportunity to live in a community-like setting where they can build lasting relationships throughout their college experience One student's answering machine �reefing told its own story of life in a esidence hall.

"By insisting that people recognize that the two are different, that's cer- tainly going to be beneficial to stu- dents, and especially to the students that live in the residence halls.

Help IS available jDLLonavy dru&s Illustration by John Paul Tate Dr. Al Smith Counseling Center Attending college for the first time can be a frightening and threatening experience for students. For most en- tering freshmen, college represents a new and formidable experience as they leave the familiar environments of home and high school. The unfamiliarity of this experi- ence challenges the individual's per- sonal security, need for acceptance and need for comfort Adjustment difficul- ties exist not only because of the un- certainty regarding students' new and unfamiliar environment, but also be- cause they doubt whether they will be able to meet the expectations of par- ents, friends and the university, in ad- dition to the expectations they have for themselves. For those students who wish to get a head start on preparing for col- lege, there are three necessary survival skills to leam: time management, study skills and stress management First, entering college students need to leam how to manage their own time. Time management is a system by which students become selective in de- termining their priorities and planning the amount to time necessary to ac- complish what they believe is impor- tant How freshmen leam to use the 24 hours a day and 168 hours a week will determine the degree to their personal and academic success. Simply stated, learning to manage time is learning self- management In addition to time management a second major development task for students is learning how to study. Learning how to study effectively has a major influence on a student's aca- demic performance and personal life I I I I I I I I I wucom to ecu New STUDENTS Brinf This M At $.25 off any Drink And Come Cnoy The Coot and Dynamic j Atmosphere of Greenville's Downtown j I I I Coffeehouse!

Essentially, study skills can be di- vided into four basic areas: preparation, basic skills, learning process and test taking. In preparing to study, students must leam how to overcome procrasti- nation and to develop more realistic attitudes about studying. Further, study skills include learning how to read a textbook, how to participate in class and ways to improve note taking. Finally, students must develop a sense of comfort with the learning pro- cess and how to take tests. These skills ultimately call on students to become more proactive in their learning Ulti- mately, learning how to study includes getting ready to study, reading and hearing information, learning informa- tion and giving the information back to the professor through a test or term paper. A third important survival skill involves learning to manage a variety of sources of stress. Stress has been defined by many as a reaction caused by intense exertion, strain and effort Typically, stress for college students is brought on by the continual adjust- ments and demands of the academic and social environment The more students are called upon to adjust to challenging situations, the more stress they may experience. Feel- ings of stress will be a normal part of their life and may increase wilh addi- tional responsibility. Coping with this new academic and social stress is es- sential for college survival. Most indi- viduals tend to cope in ways that are unique to them. No matter which particular ap- proach a student chooses, it is impor- tant that they approach their stressors proactively (as opposed to avoiding them). This is important since effec- tively dealing with stress enhances your health, general well being and produc- Tit TEJ2M5 "Minges Maniacs" The brand-new name for the die-hard fans who inhabit the Student Section of Williams Arena at Minges Coliseum for men's and women's basketball games.

Not confronting stress can only lead to a variety of other problems. In addition to learning the nec- essary survival skills, many students also may need to leam to cope with a variety of adjustment difficulties. The most difficult time of this adjustment period will typically occur between the first four to eight weeks of entering school. Common adjustment difficulties can include roommate difficulties, academic stress, threats to one's self- esteem, homesickness and a general lack of comfortroutine in their new environment To overcome these feel- ings most students take short week- end visits home or take advantage of the support of close friends at college. For some students, however, they may need more professional help with their problems. The university pro- vides a counseling center that offers individual and group counseling, as well as workshops and outreach pro- gramming to help students adjust to college and improve upon their per- sonal development The locus of the Counseling Cen- ter (located in 316 Wright Building) is to help students manage personal- emotional, social, academic and voca- tional concerns.

Chris Brantley Staff Writer ECU freshmen can lookdrward to four (or more) years of term papers and research as well as hours of setting in front of computers. ECU students can make use of the many resources that the university has provided. These resources are centered mainly around Joyner Library. Joyner offers open-access to an ex- tensive microfilms collection, where stu- dents can view periodicals on microfiche and roll microfilm as well as take a look t college catalogs. Through the Proquest terminals in Joyner, students may view (and print free of cost) entire pages of magazine articles using the provided CDs. Proquest contains general topics and specified topics in So- cial Sciences and Business. The printing feature proves to be a very useful tool in gathering research material. Infotrac is a newspaper index with articles available from The New York Times, The Los Angeles Times, Christian Science Magazine, Wall Street Journal and the Washington Fbst. It allows ac- cess to similar research material as Proquest, but in many cases, merely gives article titles on a topic and a short ab- stract of the article concerned. Joyner also holds an abundance of reference material and the ability to ob- tain material from other libraries through the interlibrary loan system. It is advised that students allow two to three weeks when attempting to get material through this system. Two more sources of research infor- mation in Joyner are Government Docu- ments and Special Collections. Govern- ment Documents may be accessed through the Library's Marquis System. "Special Collections is a separate entity of the Library that was formed to support graduate and undergraduate re- search said Gene Williams, university archivist "The collection has five center- pieces including: the manuscript collec- tion, the university archives, the North Carolina collection, the university rare book collection and the private collection of a Lenoir County physician he said. Several improvements are in the works for Joyner Library and should be completed in the near future. "The addition to the Library will nearly double its capacity and allow sec- uons such as special collections to move to new quarters and eventually download into the Marquis system Williams said. "Special Collections also hope, to migrate to better software he said. In addition to these improvements, the Marquis system is in the process of being upgraded after being bought out by Horizon. An enhanced version sHould be ready for students in the fall. New stu- dents wishing to find out more about our library should enroll in Library Science 1000. In addition to Joyner, the Health Sciences Library and the Fletcher Music Library are available for students who need information in these fields.

We're just sort of passing the buck. Yes. that sucks, but you have to remember that you do look kind of pitiful to us. No matter how weil you've been pre- pared by your orientation session, they can't teach you everything. As you try to feel your way blindly through the bewil- dering experience of campus life, you're bound to make some bonehead mistakes, and we're bound to laugh at you. But I'll let you in on a secret We all made bonehead mistakes, too. My fresh- man year, for example, was a parade of stupidity. Besides the usual freshman er- rors, like getting lost on campus and buy- ing books for the wrong classes, I almost wrecked my academic career. Having grown up in a stereotypically boring small rural town, the lure of the college social life was overwhelming. Swiftly and systematically abandoning study in favor of fun, I became that ulti- mate college horror story you hear from preachers, parents and Jesse Helms. I was "corrupted" by the big city. It started small. 1 had this econom- ics class that I found sort of boring. The main lecture was taught by this guy who looked like Jack Nicholson but had none of his charm. In and of itself, that wasn't so bad. There were about 50 other people in the room, and we could all just anony- mously take notes. But I also had to attend an econ lab, which was taught by San Sub Lee, the killer TA. By all accounts, San was a nice guy, and he certainly knew the subject matter. But he had this really heavy Ko- rean accent and my Eastern North Caro- lina backwater ears couldn't understand a word he said. So I stopped going to lab. Then I stopped going to the main lecture, too. Not surprisingly, I didn't do very well on the next test and wrote the class off. It was all downhill from there. Once I let one class go, another followed, and another, until I was attending only two classes. This left me with loads of free time, which 1 used to further my social life. I started hanging out with a bunch of STUDENT. BUN MINOBITr MAGAZINE Expressions Pick us up four times during the Fall and Spring terms for discussion of the problems and issues facing the various ethnic and religious groups represented on ECU's multi-cultural campus. EAST CAIOUNA UNIVERSITY STUDENT MEDIA comic book freaks and punk rockers, lead- ing a bizarre dual life in two of the most outcast sub-cultures on campus. I devel- oped unpopular political beliefs and a taste for weird comics, loud music and strange clothing. Then there were the girls. I learned how to meet girls that year, girls who were as eager for new experiences as myself. Nature took its course, again and again. I was experimenting at nearly every opportunity. 1 won't go into any details here, but let's just say that I once had a conversation with a lamp post and leave it at that When I look back. I'm amazed at how lucky I was to have come out of it all addiction- and disease-free. I didn't escape completely unscathed, however. I ended my freshman year in college on academic probation, and with only a semester's worth of credit to my name. To say that my parents weren't pleased is an understatement To say that my dad threatened to pull me out of school, kick me out of the house, and leave me to find work at a gas station some- where is entirely accurate. So, I cleaned up my act I started going to class. I started studying. I re- strained my rampages to weekends. Oh sure, I still liked (and still do like) 'veird comics, loud music and strange clothing. My political affiliation remained just as unpopular as ever. I didn't go back to be- ing the same person 1 had been in high school. I became a better, different per- son. But 1 was talking about tEasing fresh- men, wasn't I? Well, hey, what can 1 say? It happens. Just try to laugh and shrug it off. It's usually only meant in fun. And besides, the person laughing at your mis- ery probably screwed up way worse than you. Maureen Rich Guest Editor Everyone has heard the joke that attending ECU is the best five or six years of your life, but only graduates can explain why. I managed to get out of ECU in four years, but not without a lot of strife. Don't expect to get out any other way, and don't expect to get sym- pathy from anyone but your parents for that strife, because it happens every- where. ECU has a unique personality that each of you will discover in your own way. I know I didn't discover it until the day I became actively involved in its ex- istence. When I was a freshman, I thought ECU was a huge school and 1 was just a number. I wanted to transfer to a smaller school, or even another school just as big - at least then I'd have a new number. What changed my mind was this newspaper. I know, get out the violins. I'm not trying to sell subscriptions, though. I'm talking about becoming involved. As a freshman and for most of my sophomore year I thought the student newspaper was an ominous, shadowy building on top of a steep hill. I thought the writers were trained, educated experts who would laugh at me if I even dared to set R.

Those are the past and present staff members of The East Carolinian cracking up at such notions. In fact when I finally gathered the courage to set foot in the hallowed offices here, (Yes, I typed my application. What a dork, I know.) I discovered a lot of nor- mal people and a lot of strange people. Trust me, you'll find them wherever you go. The point to this story is that I met kids just as uneducated, untrained and naive as I was (am?). I also found out that this organization exists primarily to teach students. The hard way. So I got involved and worked up here until I graduated several weeks ago. And now I have more on my re- sume than the Friendly's on Cape Cod, the kitchen store in Worcester, MA, and all that babysitting. I gained something else, too. I found out that I didn't have to be a number. I interviewed administrators, professors, local businesspeople, ath- letes the list goes on. How many stu- dents get to know the chancellor? How many people get to have the head foot- ball coach call them at home? (OK, that was under unpleasant circumstances, but still!) My point is that becoming involved opens up so many possibilities. You be- come a name and a face, and you get the chance to leave a mark at the uni- versity. Yours may not be a huge, indel- ible mark, but it could be enough to make you feel like you didn't spend five or six years at a college just to say you passed math on the first try. (Now that would be a legacy!) I found myself feeling incredibly loyal to ECU, because it became my school. I could walk across campus and know that I wasn't just a vegetable hang- ing around using up valuable parking space. Getting involved doesn't mean running for Student Government Asso- ciation (SGA) president anyway. Getting involved is as easy as get- ting to know the people and adminis- trators in your department Play an in- tramural sport. Start swimming up at Minges every morning, and talk to the people there. By becoming a part of this university, you will feel more like the university has become a part of you. I gained new respect for the school, the campus and the people who run it all day long. I listened to how much they love this school, and eventually that same admiration rubbed off, and ex- panded into loyalty, trust and commit- ment Sure, you're going to get ticked off at the school every now and then. Ev- eryone knows bureaucracy sucks, and all that But if you get involved as early as you can (like from day one), then you'll get through those times where all you want to do is transfer to Albu- querque. Don't give up after just one year, or even two. No experience is a bad one if you've learned something. Won't I make a great parent? 11 DEflNlN Tit TLRM$ a Squirrels The seemingly cute and innocent furry rulers of this campus who want your food, your backpack andor your wallet no matter the cost.

Guess again, friends. You need to start NOW to make sure your exit from these hallowed halls is as graceful and painless as possible. Andi Powell Phillips Staff Writer Already thinking about future career possibilities and opportuni- ties? No? Well, it is time to start. Even incoming freshmen need to be giving some thought to what they want to do with their lives and what they want to do for a living. Fortu- nately, there is are services available to all ECU students to help with the decision-making process. Career Services is located on the corner of Fifth and Jarvis Streets and is there to assist ECU students with career planning and placement. Al- though a great deal of their services and programs are directed at gradu- ating seniors, they also have many resources to offer those just begin- ning or halfway through their college careers, in helping them choose and prepare for a career "The hardest part, instead of looking for a job, is doing the inter- nal soul-searching to discover what kind of knowl- edge and skills and interests you have and how that will apply to your career choice said Jeff Henley, assistant director of career services. Henley recommends that stu- dents begin preparing as early as pos- sible. This does not mean that every student should know exactly what they want to do as they enter col- lege, but that they shou'd be taking an interest in finding out what types of careers are available that incorpo- rate the areas in which they have an interest. 'if I could give the incom- ing freshmen three pieces of advice, they would be that they start to de- fine their knowl- edge, their inter- ests, their skills and their abilities, become meaning- fully involved in campus events and activities and "The hardest part, instead of looking for a job, is doing the internal soul- searching � Jeff Henely Assistant director of Career Services apply themselves in class Henley said. These are the things employers are looking for according to Henley. "Employers have saidl they are looking for people who have worked part-time, either on campus or off, or been in a leadership position in an organization such as an honor so- ciety or a fraternity or a sorority Henley said. "And they are looking for people who have gotten involved in a volunteer programs or events. I strongly encourage students to get out there and try some of these things to help them discover what they enjoy doing Among the resources available to students, there are two interactive computer programs called S1G1 and Discover, that contain lists of possible careers that can be accessed by sev- eral means including major course of study, and interests, position list- ings, employer information and much more. Career Services also offers an ECU homepage on the Internet that can be used anywhere a student can get access to the Internet, an em- ployer information room which has information on status . stocks, growth potential and more, a re- source room which houses more in- formation on what career options are available in a. given major. The advantage of using these services and choosing a career is that when students reach their se- nior year, they will have clear goals in their employment search and once again, Career Services can help. The department keeps student fiies on computer and when they are made aware of a position available at a company, they can access all student files with compatible skills and interests, send those resumes out to the company for consider- ation and set-up interviews. In addition. Career Services of- fers workshops in resume writing, interviewing and a number of other areas to help the student prepare for the hunt. According to Marilyn Davis, all a student needs to do to take ad- vantage of career services is walk in the front door of their building and stop in her office (first door on the right.) "A lot of students come in look- ing confused, not exactly sure what they want or what we offer Davis said. "We can talk to them, answer any specific questions they might have, take them back and show them how to use the SIGI to look-up ma- jors and browse through employer files, and we can assign them career counselors and whatever else they might need Happy's Pool Hail Open 7 days A week � M- Sat 9a-2a � Sun 12-12 Tuns $1 Domestics All Day & Night Wed: Ladies Night Ladies Play All Day Free 32 02.

And when all the moving and un- packing is over, buying your text- books should be the next item on your agenda. It may seem like an overwhelming task, but there are two bookstores in Greenville that serve ECU students and they have everything you need to make the job an easy one. The ECU Student Store is lo- cated in the Wright Building in the middle of campus, while the Uni- versity Book Exchange (UBE) is lo- cated just across from campus, in the heart of downtown. Both are easily accessible to students. Both stores carry all the school necessities; school supplies, art sup- plies, Greek merchandise, novelties, study aids and, of course, text- books. However similar the stores are, they are also quite different from each other. The Student Store is part of the university system and follows North Carolina mandates as to what it can and cannot sell. UBE is a privately owned and operated business, and has more leeway with its merchandise. Since both stores are in the same business, a lot of their merchandise is of the same type and quality. "We are here to serve the uni- versity community: students, fac- ulty, staff and families thereof, " said Michael Coston, director of retail services for the Student Store. "Our goal is to be the best pos- sible store for the students said UBE owner Don Edwards.

The Student Stores suggest that you begin buying your books "once you have a confirmed class schedule Coston said, while UBE suggests buying your books right after your classes begin. In the event that you buy the wrong book, both stores have a refund period during the first two weeks of school, but check for dates at the time of purchase. It is also recommended that you put your name in your books, after you are sure that you have the right ones, to ward off the chance of theft. In the event that your books are stolen, notify both stores immediately. When the semester is winding down and finals approach, you should start thinking about selling your books back. It is recom- mended that you sell them as soon as you finish your exams. Both stores have a computerized buyback system Lo save you time, but don't wait too long to sell be- cause the shelves might become overstocked.

"Our employees for the most part are ECU graduates or current students who understand the wants and needs of students and make ever effort to be the best store in Greenville Edwards said.

Joyner teaches the Freshman Seminar (COAD 1000, formerly EDL'C 1000), which is a tvo-hour a week class.

Joyner has been unable to convince the university to give graduation credit for the course. Despite that obstacle, he has never had a problem filling the class.

"We assist with the transition from high school to college Joyner said. "In high school, parents and teachers have more influence on getting work done and succeeding. Once students reach college, they're on their own to make it" The course also focuses on time management and study skills by intro- ducing students to research and study availabilities on campus. The students are shown the Writing Center on cam- pus, and while there is little time to delve into specifics, Joyner said the stu- dents at least learn "that the people working over there are nice, and want to help "We talk about how important it is to understand and develop values and ethics, we talk about plagiarism and cheating, and the implications even if you don't get caught he said.

Though profitable for downtown merchants, it is relatively easy for younger stu- dents to become enthralled in the excitement and spend the entire month's budget in a single week- end. One of the first tasks for many incoming freshmen is obtaining a personal checking account. Super- ficially, this sounds like an easy as- signment: but there is much more at stake than meets the eye. "Students, especially freshmen, tend to have trouble budgeting their money said Barry Allen, a branch manager at United Carolina Bank. 'In most cases, it is the first time they are managing their own money. The most important factor I can stress is the importance of keeping accurate records so prob- lems such as NSFs Non-Sufficient Funds or bounced checks and trouble with the Credit Bureau do not occur When looking for a bank to open an account, keep this in mind: Every bank you visit wants your business, so don't go inside their building uninformed. One sugges- tion emphatically stressed by all consulted bank representatives is to go to the bank with a list of ques- tions. Some questions to be ad- dressed include the following: � Is there a flat monthly fee for the checking account? � Is there a limit on the num- ber of checks written monthly? � Does the account come with an ATM card? � If so, are the bank's ATM ma- chines close to campus? � Is there a "1-800" number to call for 24 hour account informa- tion? � Is over-draft protection avail- able on the account? Out-of-state students who open a local checking account may need to be more informed than their in- state counterparts. At United Caro- lina Bank, for instance, when an out-of-state check is processed into a checking account, it takes four to five business days from the check being deposited to showing in the appropriate account. However, only some banks fol- low this procedure. Wachovia gives student accounts immediate credit for checks up to $500, but those checks must be from the student's parent. Another financial concern of vi- tal student interest is credit cards. Most credit card companies charge 18 percent annual percentage rate; the most they can legally charge in North Carolina. "Throw the application pack- age in the trash as soon as it comes through the mail said Stacey W. Best, a Wachovia representative. "Students will quickly notice that every credit card company wants to give them immediate credit, but those on tight budgets tend to get into trouble quick. One major mis- take with the Credit Bureau will be on record for seven years But banking and credit aren't the only financial pitfalls awaiting college freshmen, nor are they the most dangerous. Many ECU student funds are blown on Extra Value Meals, Roast Beef Combos, and Dave's Classic Combos. Three dollars here, four dollars there - it's amazing how fast it adds up. If you're purchas- ing a meal plan, use it. There are several dining facilities scattered across campus from which to choose. To drive or not to drive: Is that the question? You won't be at ECU long before you discover the park- ing woes of faculty members and students alike. From a monetary standpoint, there is one, singular choice: not to drive. , ECU is currently in pursuit of creating a "pedestrian only" cam- pus.

Another thing to keep in mind is tickets. Many people who do drive to campus have been blessed with at least a few parking tickets. If these tickets are not paid, the stu- dent cannot register for classes un- til they have a clean record with ECU Public Safety. Most activities, extracurricular and otherwise, are easily within walking distance from any dorm, however, so driving is not an abso- lute necessity. And don't forget to save money for text books. You have to take classes, too, after all. Freshmen face plenty of chal- lenges at ECU without having to worry about money, and following these tips could help you avoid the biggest traps set in your path. Some Tough Decisions Heather Zophy Health Educator, Student Health Services aBMHHMMMMMMMMMMMMMi Sexually transmitted diseases (STDs) are estimated to infect one out of every four college students. This ratio (1:4) con- tinues to drop (1:5 in 1993,1:6 in 1990) as more and more stu- dents are engaging in sexual relations. Sexually trans- mitted diseases do not discriminate against anyone. It doesn't matter a person's gender, color, religious pref- erence, sexual prefer- ence or socioeco- nomic status. There are some characteristics that may put individuals at risk, though. Women are generally more likely to con- tract an STD than men. In most cases STDs are contracted by the part- ner "receiving" the intercourse. Fe- males using oral contraceptives (birth control pills) place them- selves at an even greater risk due to the hormonal changes that alter the pH in the vagina. Another characteristic that fol- lows the trends of STDs is prior in- fection. Studies show that those individuals who have had previous infections generally place them- selves at risk for contracting other sexually transmitted diseases, in- cluding HIV (human immunodefi- ciency virus). Typically, sexually transmitted diseases show symptoms (blisters or open sores for herpes, cloudy vagi- nal or penile discharge for gonor- rhea, etc.); however, many STDs will show symptoms with some people and not with others. For example, with clamydia and gonorrhea infec- tion, approximately 80 percent of women and 20 percent of men will not show symptoms. Another thing to consider is the incubation periods that can occur with sexually transmitted dis- eases. Some infections may not show up for weeks, months, or years after the initial exposure. The Human Papilloma Virus (HPV) which causes genital warts and HIV are two common examples of diseases which may have a de- layed reaction. If you are or decide to become sexually active, testing for STDs is essential. Anytime you engage in risky behavior, you place yourself at risk for contracting an infection. Testing for any type of STD (clamydia, gonorrhea, herpes, HPV, STDs don)- discrinn�na. 15 PLfiNiNc; "Pee-Dee the Pirate Our beloved school mascot.

Maybe that should change Illustration by JOHN PAUL TATE syphilis, bacterial vaginosis. Hepa- titis B, etc.) with the exception of HIV can be done at the Student Health Center at a reduced cost (328-6317 for an appointment). HIV testing can be done for free at the Pitt County Health De- partment (413-1300). There are some things individu- als can do to prevent the spread of STDs. Abstaining from all types of intercourse (oral, anal, vaginal) is the only way to be 100 percent sure that you will not get an infection. For those who are going to engage in sexual activity, latex condoms are going to provide the best pro- tection. Condoms must be in date, stored in a dry, cool environment; contain Nonoxynol-9, be made of latex and manufactured in America or Japan to be the most effective. The condom must also be put on. used, and taken off correctly to ensure any type of protection. Condoms can be bought through vending machines in the residence halls on campus and at the Student Health Center at the pharmacy (12 for $2. 00 - no prescription needed). If you decide to become sexually active, decide to protect yourself from STDs. For more information, contact Heather Zophy, Health Educator at 328-6794.

CfuizhiD ziifouijh Ism Mimii&ud THE EAST CAROLINIAN ORIENTATION SPECIAL ISSU Entertainment abounds Kris Hoffler Staff Writer An entertainment Mecca Greenville is not there's no coliseum or even a large enough population to bring in the big names. If you are re- ally looking for some variety in music and movies, the best place to find it around here would be in the stores and theaters that dot the landscape in walking distance of ECU. There are three independent music stores in town: East Coast Music and Video. Quicksilver and CD Alley. All three are located within walking distance of campus with Quicksilver and CD Alley downtown on Fifth Street, and East Coast music over on 12th street. All three of these stores buy and sell used CDs. he an extensive selection of music T- shirts. and will make special orders. Quicksilver Records caters a little less to the popular music that can be found in the chain stores. It has a huge variety of music posters, carries many popular and underground magazines, and has a large sticker selection. CD Alley, located downtown, has one of the largest used CD selections 1 have seen anywhere. Its selec- tion of underground music (or alternative, or whatever you call it) is more than enough to satisfy the most obscure tastes. If you're looking for that band that no one has ever heard of. this is the place to go. East Coast Music and Video has all the popular music, but with a lot of the more specialized music in stock as well. Their jazz selection is exten- sive, including both old and new jazz, and they also have a large classical section. East Coast is also fa- mous for its movie selec- tion. Along with main- stream Hollywood fare, it carries many under- ground movies that you won't see anywhere else. The foreign film sec- tion is second to none in the city, and the collection of Japanese anima- tion is large and uncensored. Greenville also has the inevitable Blockbuster Video. Video Views, and Pick-a-Flick, among others. These stores carry the expected mainstream films, and are located in places you need a car to visit. Downtown Greenville is in easy walking distance, though, and it hosts the Park Theatre, the city's only "dol- lar theater" (admission is actually $1.50, but let's not split hairs; it's cheap). The Park gets films on second run: that is. mov- ies that ran in the full-price theaters four to six months ear- lier. On campus. Hendrix Theatre runs films on week- ends, and admission is free to stu- dents. The films here are also sec- ond run. but at these prices, who can complain? Last semester. Hendrix screened such blockbusters as Pulp Fiction and Forrest Gump, along with such critically-acclaimed films as Ed Wood. It doesn't seem like Greenville has enough people to support all these places, but they thrive none- theless. If you want to be entertained, these are the places you need to be. Out and About Downtown Mark Brett Lifestyle Editor So, it's Saturday night and you've got nothing to do. You could spend the evening getting some work done or playing a little Parcheesi with your pals. Or, you could join the majority of the ECU campus in downtown Greenville. Conveniently located within easy walking distance from campus, downtown is the legendary place that earned ECU its "party school" reputation. Most of the town's bars are there, and nearly all of the fa- vorite student hangouts. What follows is an overview of the downtown experience for you - the incoming ECU freshman. All establishments listed welcome ev- eryone 18 and older, but remember to bring an ID; downtown bounc- ers don't like underage drinkers. The Attic: The biggest venue for live music in town. 10 years ago, REM hit the Attic stage on a regu- lar basis. Last year it was Hootie and the Blowfish and Dave Matthews. Not every band you'll see here will become huge national stars, but you might enjoy them anyway. Peasant's Cafe: Every college town has its Deadheads, and this is where ours hang out. If you're granola-crunchy, wear tie-dies and are into Native American outer- wear, this is the place for you. Peasant's features live music on weekends, and sometimes strays from its low-key regulars to bring in cool weirdos like the Frank Spen- cer Quartet. O'Rockefeller's: This former clam bar is now home to Greenville's punka;alternative scene. Look up "smoky dive" in the dictionary, and you'll find O'Rocks. If you're into slam dancing, weird haircuts and loud rock n' roll, seek out O'Rocks. Another venue for live music, O'Rocks typically books lo- cal bands. Occasionally, however, it pulls in regionally-known acts such as Picasso Trigger and the Antiseen. whose shows at O'Rocks are local legends. Possibly the best- behaved crowd in town. Sports PadSharkey's: Two, two, two bars in one! Sports Pad boasts three bars and pool tables as far as the eye can see. Sharkey's, which shares building space, is more laid-back. It has seats and the occasional acoustic guitar player on weekends. The Elbo: For reasons known only to the gods, the Elbo is where most partying ECU freshmen hang out. generally, the Elbo plays Top 40 dance music. Tuesday night is freshman night; Thursday night is rave night. It's known as "a good place to meet people Kelly's: Another dance club, this one with a vaguely Irish motif, it's just like the Elbo. except the customers are a little older. Wrong Way Corrigan's: A blues-rock bar with couitoi table booths, Corrigan's caters to a slightly-older crowd than many of the downtown clubs. The Cellar: Located beneath the Attic, the Cellar offers three rooms with three different types of music. One room is country, an- other dance, and the third, rock. The atmosphere is like the Elbo and Kelly's, but with a twist. Happy's Pool Room: The name says it all. A great place to soak in some "local color The Percolator Coffeehouse: Greenville's very own hip coffee joint! The Percolator offers an al- ternative to the beer-swilling may- hem of the other downtown bars. Its atmosphere is laid-back despite the frightening amounts of caffeine being consumed by the patro s. On a typical trip to the Percolator you'll meet poets, professors, punks, frat boys, Deadheads, art- ists, intellectuals and just plain folks who like a good cup of Java. Alfredo'sAlfredo's II: Alfredo's is a tiny little pizza joint with a really good juke box. You can barely get in the door after 2 a.m. Alfredo's II, right next door, is a small bar that attracts an odd as- sortment of students, it's usually packed to capacity. BW3: A buffalo wings restau- rant that doubles as a bar at night. BW3 offers comfortable seats and a trivia game that can be played oh any of the TV sets scattered around the room. Well, that's about it for the downtown bar scene. Expect to come home from most of these places tired, sweaty and reeking of cigarette smoke. If that's your cup of tea, pick a likely environment and dive in. Moo-ve it on over to a job at The East Carolinian this fall. Call ECU-6366 for more information!

I. - THE EAST CAROLINIAN ORIENTATION SPECIAL ISSUE Find fun in the Emerald City sun Tambra Zion News Editor aHMMBMaMBMRHMMi Instead of sitting in your resi- dence hall sweating like a pig in the immense summer heat, do it outside at one of Greenville's 19 parks. Greenville's recreation and parks department has something to offer everyone as far as outdoor (and even indoor) activities go. Here's a brief rundown of where to find what The Aquatics and Fitness Cen- ter is located on Staton Road (you'll learn where that is eventually). Since you probably already know where the Plaza Mall is. I'll give you a hint. Fol- low Charles Boulevard past the sta- dium and past the mall and past the movie theater and you'll eventually run into it on your right. This center sports an Olympic size indoor swim- ming pool (just in case you were thinking of getting a late start for the '96 Olympic games), aerobic, ex- ercise and weight rooms, as well as a gymnasium, locker rooms and nurs- ery facilities for those of you who have gotten an early start on moth- erhood. The Community Building, lo- cated on Fourth and Greene Streets, offers arts and craft programs for those who may or may not be artisti- cally inclined. It's also air conditioned so you can go there to escape the tremendous heat you'd otherwise be facing in your room. You'll probably find Elm Street Park first. It's the closest park to campus and can easily be found on, you guessed it, Elm Street. This 8.4 acre lot hosts six lighted tennis courts, two little league fields, not one but two playgrounds, three pic- nic shelters, and a Kiwanas shelter. If you ever become close friends with a Kiwanas (whatever that may be) they might let you share the deck, picnic table and indoor grill under their shelter. The Elm Street Park would not be complete without men- tioning the Elm Street Gym which can be found directly across the street from the six tennis courts men- tioned earlier. Evans Park is located on Arling- ton Boulevard. Arlington boulevard is across from the Plaza Mall and home to Boulevard Bagel (a shop the TEC Highly recommends). This park is 25 acres and has restrooms, a defi- nite plus! As far as recreation goes, however, Evans Park has two lighted softball fields and not much else. There are concession stands, but hours vary. The Thomas Foreman Park was probably named after a really great guy who has left Greenville for a bet- ter place. You can find this place at the corner of W. Fifth and Nash Streets. Foreman's Park has a play- ground, two lighted tennis courts, two picnic shelters, a footballplay- ing field and is home to the CM. Eppes Center and Gymnasium. Greenville Terrace Park is a tiny little place found off of Greenville Boulevard (if you don't know where Greenville Boulevard is you're in trouble). The Terrace Park has all the essentials: a small playing field, pic- nic shelter and restrooms. Green Springs Park sounds like the place to be. This park spans al- most 26 acres and can be found right on Fifth Street The park has picnic areas with grills for individuals and families, an exercise trail complete with workout stations, and pedes- trian bridge that crosses over Green Mill Run Creek. Guy Smith Park is a little far- ther out than the rest on the corner of Chestnut Street and Memorial Drive. This 12 acre lot hosts two lighted ballfields and one unlighted ballfield. The Guy Smith Park has a city swimming pool and bathhouse. Hillsdale Park is on Sunset Av- enue and home to one small shelter, one small playing field and a basket- ball goal. The Jaycee Park can be found right next to the recreation and parks department on Cedar Lane, off of 14th Street. This lot is almost 12 acres large with four lighted tennis courts, a library, an auditorium, a lighted soccer field, playground and picnic table. This park has a radical skateboard ramp for those of you who haven't kicked the habit, and two outdoor basketball courts. The Peppermint Park is a nice little spot on 14th Street with a play- ground and a picnic sheltei. The River Birch Tennis Center is open seven days a week and has 12 tennis courts (four of which are lighted). The center is located on Ar- lington Boulevard and reservations are accepted, that might mean you need to go out and buy one of those really cute, really expensive tennis outfits (probably not though). The River Park North is tre- mendous in every sense of the word. It can be found on Mumford Road (I don't even know where that is af- ter three years of being here) and is home to five lakes, a mile of front- age on the Tar River, Fishing, pedal boat docks and rental shed, picnic shelters and tables and a nature cen- ter. The park also offers organized group camping, a nature trail and those ever-important restrooms (which you may not need where there's a nature trail to be found). South Greenville is a nine acres lot on Howell Street. It has a com- munity shelter, gymnasium, play- ground and lighted little league field, enough said. 6. 7. S. 9. 10. 11. 12. 13. 14. 15. 16. 17.

The park has an out- door theater, boat ramps, paved walks and benches and plenty of green grass. Westhaven Park is located at the end of Cedarhurst Drive. This 1.5 acre beauty has an open play field, playground equipment and a picnic area. West Meadowbrook's 33 acres can be found on Legion Drive.

Now just because this stuff looks fun, that doesn't mean it's al- ways free. There aren't any admis- sions charged for going into the parks but recreational facilities may be a different story.

On April 25, Mike Hamrick was named Director of Athletics at ECU, filling the final and most significant Pirate Athletics vacancy after a mass departmental exodus which left the program searching for new men's and women's basketball coaches, as well as assistant football and basketball coaches and a shooting guard on the men's hoops squad. I think that there is a tremen- dous amount of opportunity (at ECU Hamrick said. "I really believe that better days are ahead for ECU athletics The 37-year-old Hamrick re- places Dave Hart, Jr who left ECU to fill the same position at Florida State University in March. Hamrick served as the Athletic Director at the Unviersity of Arkansas-Little Rock from 1990-95, coordinating and man- aging all aspects of their 16-sport Di- Mike Hamrick vision-l athletics program. Most notably, Hamrick, while at UALR, placed the Trojans into the Sun Belt Conference, after they had been previously turned away twice. ECU currently finds itself an orphan in the world of collegiate athletic conferencing, an enigma still that ranks high on ECU'S list of priori- ties. Before going to UALR, Hamrick was an Assistant Athletics Director at Illinois State University from 1984- 90. "I think that we had a tremen- dous amount of success at Illinois State and at Arkansas-Little Rock Hamrick said.

At ECU, this is definitely true. Over the previous four years memorable ECU athletic moments include exciting victories, national television broadcasts, bowl games, NCAA tournament appearances and full stadiuns and arenas with electric atmospheres. You as a student will want to make sure you are included in all these exciting moments. There is nothing like making as much noise as possible in a full Dowdy-Ficklen stadium for the ECU team entrance and yelling first downPirates after ECU first downs. During the winter, you will want to be surrounding the court, standing as part of the Minges Maniacs, in noisy Williams Arena at Minges Coliseum creating the one of toughest home court atmospheres to be found. We encourage you to support all your fellow student-athletes on campus. From the Lady Pirate volleyball and softball teams to the Pirate baseball and swim teams, their are 18 men's and women's intercollegiate teams that you can support throughout the year. Each one offering exciting moments for you to experience. Lastly, being a true Pirate means pride, enthusiasm, class and loyalty toward your university. As a member of the newest class of ECU students, each of you are now in a position to carry on these traditions. Wear you purple and gold with pride, show visible enthusiasm at games, display your loyalty by learning the alma mater and singing it at every game, and exemplify class (sportsmanship) in your actions at all athletic events. Welcome to the ECU family. We look forward to seeing you this fall. One of our traditional cheers says it bestHey, Hey, EC You Look So Good To Me! Experience the Excitement of the Spirit of the East!

Here, along with Mendenhall Student Center, is where you can pick up your free ticket for every home football game starting a few days prior to the game. D � Busted. Public Safety got you for underage drinking. If you're 21, remember to carry your ID as you frolic through the tailgating fieldsjf you're under 21, it can get risky. Besides, they'll make you reluctantly pour out your cup in front of them. That's more painful than getting a ticket C � Coach Steve Logan.

Fun to watch play, even more fun to interview after a Pirate victory. The senior ranked second on last year's squad with 79 tackles. IV � Not a good idea to play frisbee golf during tailgating. Leave the discs at home Saturday, but bring them back Sunday to play through the endless piles of trash left on the fields. Better yet, clean up your trash on Saturday so there is no problem. O � Only a certain amount of half-price tickets are available for each game, so line up early. Once they're gone, they're gone. P � Porta-potties, good idea. Bushes and trees and behind your car, bad idea. Getting ticketing for public urination isn't a great way to start your college career.

Once you get in, you can.sit wherever you want on the student side. ( T � Tailgating takes place everywhere, but the two fields near the intersection of Charles and Greenville Blvds. are the major congregation sites. The Frisbee Golf course is on the left hand side, while freshman parking is on the right, so you might want to move your car somewhere else before the crowd gets there. X � Underneath the stadium stands, the faithful Pirate fan will find restrooms, snack bars and souvenirs. Use the stairs, though, don't go the back way.

Don't do it here, ECU's thrown together some electrifying starts and finishes over the years, and you might miss another one. X � Xylophones! Xylophones! Xylophones!
