University Attorney Toi Garter recently
concluded her investigation of posters, per-
ceived as racially offensive, found by
housekeepers on three floors of the
Jenkins Art Building in January.
Three housekeepers first discovered
posters in the Art Building on Jan. 12.
They removed the posters and brought
them to Dr. Brian I laynes, the assistant
vice chancellor for student affairs.
After the posters were brought to Dr.
Haynes, he contacted Karen Boyd, assis-
tant dean of students, and together they
discussed the concerns of the "racist
posters" with Toi Carter who began her
investigation of the incident on Jan.16.
"I was unsure whether the posters rep-
resented a prank, an art project or an effort
to intimidate African Americans Carter
said in her report about the investigation.
On Jan. 20, housekeepers discovered
more posters in the Art Building titled
"Survival The posters showed a photo-
copied drawing showing how slaves were
packed like sardines in a slave ship.
The posters consisted of photocopied
black and white photographs portraying a
brutal lynching, two minstrels in black face
and a group of three African American men
attempting to protect themselves from the
force of water directed at them from a
water hose. Along with the photographs
were photocopied pages from a pocket-
sized edition of Webster's New World
Dictionary.
In the 14 page report issued to
Chancellor Richard Eakin on Oct. 20,
Carter concluded that the efforts made to
determine who was responsible for posting
the materials proved unsuccessful. The
report outlines the circumstances of the
incident and concludes that the posters
were not left specifically for housekeepers
to find.
While the report says that the flier was
most likely an artistic statement. Carter
believes the person or people responsible
for posting it were careless in the method

ASSISTANT NEWS EDITOR
Telephone lines, cameras and
microphones at Joyner Library let
ECU and city officials participate
in a conference Wednesday in
Helsinki, Finland.
Diane Henshaw, director of the
Division of Continuing Studies and
Richard Ringeisen, Vice
Chancellor of Academic Affairs,
represented ECU while
Greenville's mayor Nancv Jenkins
spoke on behalf of the city. The
conference on community devel-
opment was being held in the
Arabia Ranta suburb of Helsinki.
"Arabia Ranta wants to become
the high tech model city for
Northern Europe said Henshaw.
"The conference chose ECU as a
test and demonstration of the city's
new data transmission network
Ringeisen believes this is just
the beginning of an ongoing
process.
"Last year Yahoo ranked ECU
as one of the top 25 most techno-
logical schools in the nation said
Ringeisen. "We intend to continue
to upgrade our technology for the
program. Technology is advancing
at such a fast pace that it seems as if
we are constantly going up a down
elevator
With this technology ECU has
been able to communicate with
students who live across the globe.
"For the past five years we have
been working with the fiber optics
programs said Jams Byrd,
Distance Learning Specialist.
At first the cost of the entire pro-
gram was around $20,000 per ses-
sion, but now costs have been cut
to as little as one-third of that.
"Everyday this technology
allows us to teach students on a
world wide basis said Byrd.
Transmission between
Greenville and Europe was a mile-
stone event. The transmission
which originated in Finland and
required the use of three ISDN
(Integrated .Service Digital
Network) phone lines. The ISDN
lines and equipment produced a
video image that was slightly ani
mated in quality, but participants
deemed it to be perfectly accept-
able for exchange of information.
After the joining of the two par-
ties it was evident of a sense of
patriotism for the two cities. After
the interviews Henshaw and a few
other members of the Greenville
panel headed for Helsinki and will
return on Fridav.

Do you agree with
this statement?
A society is more liberated to the extent that fewer people are
denied human rights or opportunities or in any way oppressed
due to race, religion, ethnicity, gender, age, sexual preference,
property ownership, wealth, income, or statist authoritarian-
ism and exclusion. Reducing and ultimately removing such
hierarchies of reward, circumstance, status, or power would
improve society.
If so, join us at our meeting.

McGee, head of the teaching

It will be a time of great chal-

service to the patrons to the
library. TRC alone will be
responsible for moving about
5,000 books as well as the depart-
ment's equipment.
Over all, each of the depart-
ments are excited about making
the move. There will be more
office space and enough space to
house all of each department's
collection, with the exception of
the periodicals department. They
are still going to have to separate
the large collection because they
accumulate periodicals at such a
fast rate.

Benefit conceit for Honduras
"Scott Free" to play at
Methodist Student
Center on 5th Street
Peter Dawvot
ASSISTANT NEWS EDITOt
The Wesley Foundation of ECU
will be sponsoring a benefit concert
by "Scott Free" on November 18 at
7 p.m at the Lion's Den coffee
house, located within the
Methodist Student Center on 501
E. Fifth St.
Members of "Scott Free" first
met in Detroit in the 1980's and
quickly realized that they shared
much in common, including the
same name.
" We had so much in common
said Scott Wilkinson, United
Methodist Campus Minister. " We
both sang tenor, played guitars,
wrote our own songs, and even
shared an enthusiastic faith in
God
Soon after the meeting the two
formed a Christian folk pop jazz
duo and have since performed over
400 concerts and sold over 10,000
copies of their recordings.
Since the formation, the two
have collaborated on many differ-
ent musical recordings, and are cur-
rently working on a greatest hits
album. Work together however, has
become much harder since
V lkinson accepted a job as ECU's
campus minister.
Wilkinson accepted the job at
ECU in June of 98, and has worked
hard to get students involved with
the campus ministry.
The concert is free to the public,
however donations will be accepted
for relief efforts for Honduras and
Nicaragua, which were damaged by
a recent hurricane. Other areas of
the donations will be used to pay
for a mission trip to the area later in
the Spring.
" We have several connections
in the Honduras and Nicaragua
area. People seem to be very con-
cerned with the devastation, and
want to pitch in and help said
Wilkinson " We just want to pro-

To many people living in Southern states, gun control means hitting your target.
There are also those who strongly oppose gun control because they feel that it strips them of
their Second Amendment right. The high number of gun-related crime has led to a plethora
of gun control laws such as permit laws and a background check of the intended owner.
Hunters are affected by gun control laws because they have to endure these rigorous
background checks before they can obtain a gun to hunt, and gun related crimes are to
blame.
Ask yourself if these laws are actually as bad as they seem. There is conflict on either
side of the fence. If there were no laws, guns would be free to any and everyone who wants
to buy, whether it is for pleasure, sport, safety, or criminal intent. The fact that the laws exist
create turmoil from the hunters and marksmen who want their right to bear arms.
The key in this argument is safety. A few weeks ago, a man was carrying a gun
around at our football game, and another publication reported that a local business was
robbed last week at gunpoint.
Laws or no laws, guns are still extremely easy to obtain. Even when they are
obtained legally, they are still more likely to be used for a criminal purpose.
TEC feels that safety is the greatest concern in this matter. It is a shame that we are
sometimes afraid to walk down the street by ourselves because we live in an unsafe world. If
we need to enforce laws on guns to ensure a better world then so be it. In this is the case, we
wouldn't have to deal with those who feel it is necessary to carry a gun to a football game or
even ECU's campus.
In the long run, there are no rights withheld if you can still obtain a gun; you just
have to pass through a few checkpoints. The main point is that gun-related crimes are of the
most horrendous acts in the country, and the numbers are increasing. If someone you knew
were a victim of a gun related crime, would you agree that the assailant was carrying out his
or her Second Amendment right? Rational thinking on a college level should agree that
safety is more important.
LETTER
Students have no voice in big decisions
I was wondering if anyone has
noticed the recent changes at ECU.
I am not talking about the new
fountain or the Sonic Plaza thingy. I
am referring to the changes that
occur right under our noses; things
that we as students find out about
after the fact.
Maybe you don't know what I
am talking about. Well, for those of
you who have been here for some
time, let me remind you. First there
was that Aramark contract You
know, the greasy pizza, $1.50 hot
dogs and those biscuits! Then last
year there was Barefoot on the
Mall Sorry, on the Mendenhall
yard. Finally, there was the Pepsi
deal over the summer You know,
the deal that sent millions to the
school and left the rest of us
without a choice on what we could
drink. I was a little surprised to say
the least, especially being from
Atlanta, where I can enjoy a nice,
cold Coca-Cola.
Well, let us forget those little
oversights and move on to the latest
decision by the powers that be.
Picture this: I am walking toward
Mendenhall to get some cash when
I notice something. My lovely
Wachovia ATM has been replaced
by a piece of plywood! Can you
believe that? A staple of my
beloved South ripped out and
replaced by another bank that paid
more money.
What? That's right. It seems that
the school has once again sold us

South Park funniest show on TV
South Park is a phenomenon.
It is crude, obnoxious and
extremely funny. I heard a
report that the Christmas
episode last year had half the
audience the Super Bowl
usually gets.
In August of 1997, television
spawned one of the most horrid
and obscene shows ever to air.
South Park. This show, on
Wednesdays at 10:00 on Comedy
Central, contains scenes full of
death, profanity, carnage,
hermaphrodites, destruction, and
of course Mr. Hankey the
Christmas Poo. With a show being
so violent, vile and disgusting, was
there any doubt it would be an
instant success?
I began watching South Park
during October of '97, two months
after it first aired. I remember
passing the cartoon while I flipped
through channels, never giving a
thought to watching it. Finally I
saw the fearsome foursome with
guns. As I watched the end of the
hunting episode I could not stop
laughing. Before the group shot
anything with fully automatic
weapons, they screamed, "It's
coming right for us then
continued to blow the animal to
bits. I know people who hunt and
act the same way. I could not
believe that a half hour of complete
stupidity would be so entertaining.
South Park quickly gained fans
from college students everywhere
and enemies from every parent
group. South Park is a
phenomenon. It is crude,
obnoxious and extremely funny. I
heard a report that the Christmas
episode last year had half the
audience the Super Bowl usually
gets. Fans everywhere have shown
their support for the show by
buying shirts, stickers and hats. Of
course with any good thing comes
the moral groups. The moral parent
groups have whined and
complained about the themes
explored in the show. They do not
believe South Park is suitable for
children. Well the show is not
meant for children, so shut up.
Most of the moral groups do not
realize that the shows usually
contain a good positive message in
them, some more hidden than
others. The problem' is, most
people who complain about the
show have never even seen it. It's
preceded by a warning, after all.
Unfortunately the newer
episodes have not been able to
surpass the original six. The show
is still the funniest thing on
television, but compared to the
originals South Park is becoming

out for cash. We pay tuition fees to
be ignored. Not just once or twice,
but over and over again. I do not
think that it is right for some guy in
a suit to make my campus
decisions. Tell us what is going on
here!
I understand that the school
needs more money. Fine. I
understand that some of the money
is used for the good of the school.
But it is wrong to make these kinds
of decisions without our input. We
as students should-be informed and
should have some say in what
happens at this school.

If you are supposed to be
smart enough to study at a
university, you should be
proficient at using a
computer. I was happy to
buy my computer last year,
instead of having to go to
the Aycock computer lab
where my computer would
crash on an hourly basis.
To all those of you that run away
from modern technology as if it
were laced with Anthrax, a new-
day of educational endeavor is
upon us. Many colleges
nationwide are requiring all
incoming freshmen and students
to purchase a computer. Western
Carolina and Virginia Tech are just
two southern colleges who have
made this leap. And since ECU is
probably trying to move up on the
list of the most wired (or weird)
college campuses nationwide, I
believe that it is imminent in the
next two years that we are going to
do the same.
I support this requirement. If
you are supposed to be smart
enough to study at a university, you
should be proficient at using a
computer. I was happy to buy my
computer last year, instead of
having to go to the Aycock
computer lab where my computer
would crash on an hourly basis. I
also liked playing around on it. I
had a Budweiser screen saver that
had the frogs on it, but I had to
take it off because I kept on
getting awakened at 3 a.m. by
those f?Ks
goingBudWeisc.Er.
I know a lot of people don't like
computers. Just think how hard it
was for my 50-year-old mom to
learn how to use a computer. When
she went to college, it was
considered high tech to have a

"hellalame It would be sad if the
censors made the show limit
content, which seems very
unlikely. The only other possibility
I can think of is, the makers are
running out of material or are trying
to stretch material. I believe the
first season was a trial run, so they
had some of the best stuff just to
get a following. They have slacked
off but continue to shock audiences
into uncontrolled laughter.
Even though I think that South
Park has lost a little of its appeal, I
continue to watch faithfully. I love
to use quotes from South Park.
The only source better for quotes is
wrestling. Now there is an episode
cross over that I would love to see:
WWF and South Park combined. I
don't think you can go wrong
combining two of the top rated
shows that have huge college
followings. First you have to create
the characters. I can see Vince
McGarrison, the third grade
teacherowner with the Big Boss
Mr. Hat. Of course now you need
the main wrestlers. The two
characters who cannot talk, Kenny
and Kane, would become Kaney.
Stan and Mankind would make an
excellent Stankind. Kyle and X-
Pac would form Kyle-Pac and of
course the two toughest S.O.B.s of
the shows, Steve Austin and Eric
Cartman, would make Stone Cold
Eric Cartman. Now that episode
would definitely be hellacool!
Computers should be required
solar calculator. Let's face it, in any
college major you are going to have
to present your work in a
professional manner, a feat easily
accomplished by a computer. Even
your old buddies from high school
who went to the nearest podunk
community college have had to
use computers for their classes,
even if they have their associate
degrees in TVVCR repair or gun
repair.
I support everyone being on the
internet. I have met people on the
net that I didn't even know I was
related to. I met a guy named
Helmet Kleinschmit that turned
out to be my great uncle. He lives
in Berlin. Germany, not a part of
the United States, even though
someone at a party tried to
convince me that it is. I can also
find information on time travel
theory, investing, and obscure
historical figures that professors
assign reports on. Basically, with so
much information at my finger
tips, why would I need to walk
through the annoying sonic
tragedv and go to Joyner Library
where books are obsolete before
they even hit the shelves?

On the lookout for
Prostate
Approximately 39,200 men die each year from prostate cancer
Phillip Gilfus
STAFF WRITER
Prostate cancer kills 39,200 men each year
in the United States alone, and there does
not appear to be a cure in sight. This type
of cancer is one of the leading causes of
death in men and doctors are hard at work
to find a way to decrease the number of
men who are diagnosed with this disease.
The only way men can protect themselves
now is through early detection and by tak-
ing some preventive steps.
The prostate, a gland found only in
men, is about the size of a walnut and is
located under the bladder. According to the
American Cancer Society, eighty-nine per-
cent of men diagnosed with this cancer will
survive for at least five years. Another sixty-
three percent will survive at least ten years.
"Excluding skin cancer, prostate cancer
has the most common malignancy said
Mary Mattheis of the American Cancer
Society.
There are several risk factors that
increase a man's chance of getting prostate
cancer. This cancer is most commonly
found in North America and northwestern
Europe. For any man who has a father or
brother with prostate cancer, their risk is
double for getting it. If a man has relatives
who were stricken with the disease at a
young age, the risk for cancer skyrockets.
A man's age plays a big part in their can-
cer risk. At the age of fifty, prostate cancer
is a concern for every man. Eighty percent
of all prostate cancers are diagnosed in men
over sixty-five.
"No one knows exactly what the cause
of prostate cancer is said Kenneth Briley
from the Leo VV. Jenkins Cancer Center.
It is still a mystery among the medical
community to what causes prostate cancer.
While some studies have linked high levels
of certain male hormones to occurrences of
cancer of the prostate, their work is still
inconclusive.
However, since many risk factors have
been connected with this male cancer,
some preventive steps can be taken. "A
diet low in fat and consisting mostly of veg-
etables, fruits, and grains is associated with
reduced risk of prostate cancer declares
the American Cancer Society. A decreased
intake of high-fat foods from animal
sources and choosing most of one's food
from plant groups can lower the risk of can-
cer. Smoking has also been linked to
prostate cancer in some studies, but those
findings are controversial at this time.
The use of vitamins have also shown a
possibility in affecting the chance of
prostate cancer. Researchers have found
that taking fifty milligrams of vitamin E
daily can lower a man's cancer risk by more
than thirty percent. Men who are currently
taking vitamin A should be aware that they
might be increasing their chance of cancer.
Doctors recommend that anyone who is
taking vitamins should use caution and
avoid excessive doses.
Early detection is a key in helping can-
cer-stricken men survive longer with their
disease. Some warning signs of prostate
cancer for all men include inability to uri-
nate, difficulty starting or stopping urine
flow, blood in the urine, and pain or burn-
ing during urination.
The American I'rological Association
strongly encourages prostate cancer screen-
ings for men starting at mid-life. Those
men who find that they have many risk fac-
tors may want to have screenings done ear-
lier. The American Cancer Society recom-
mends that every man over forty should
have a digital rectal exam as part of their
annual physical checkup. (lancers found by
screening are usually smaller and have a
tendency to spread less, giving men a bet-
ter chance for treatment.
Surgery is, on average, the most com-
- prostate cancer is the most common cancer found
in men
- prostate cancer is the second leading cause of death
in men, right behind lung cancer
- risk for getting prostate cancer increases with age
- risk of prostate cancer is twice as common in black
males than white males
- the cause of prostate cancer prostate cancer is unknown

STAFF WRITE!
When you think of downtown
; Greenville, do images of clubs,
bars, and other night life places
icome to, mind? The Uptown
Greenville Revitalization
Movement wants that image to
change, and with the opening of
the Evans Street Art Gallery, that
change is now beginning.
On October 14, the ribbon cut-
ting took place at the art gallery
which promises "to preserve
Greenville's special 'small town'
charm
Located two doors down from
the Courtside Cafe, which is across
from the Pitt County Courthouse,
the gallery has a restored 1940's
facade.
"There is a lot of artistic talent
n Greenville said Billie Morris,
who created and opened the
gallery. "The community needs a
chance to have access to it, we
hope we can give them access
Morris is a former elementary
school teacher who, along
with her husband, decided
that Greenville needed a
place where local artists
could display their works
as well as view the works
of others.
"I've always loved art
and I just enjoy the oppur-
tunity to be able to talk
with artists Morris said.
Beginning more than a
year ago, Morris talked
with members of the Pitt
County Arts Council and
other art councils in the
surrounding counties.
After traveling to art
shows throughout the
state, she developed con-
tacts that she thought
would help in the devel-
opment of her new
gallery.
Already having train-
ing in the business field,
Morris began the busy
process of actually creat-
ing the gallery.
The gallery itself con-
tains spotlights and other
special lighting that
enhances the aft works on
display. One can see

The ECU Student Union is spon-
soring their trip to New York City.
It will take place over
Thanksgiving break for those who
want to either get away from the
usual turkey and festivities or
check out the sights and sounds of
the city that never sleeps.
"This is an annual trip that has
been going on for the last 23 years
said Stephen Gray, director of
Student Activities.
84 ECU students, faculty and
staff members and immediate fam-
ily will leave on November 24 at
midnight on an American charter
bus line. According to Gray, by
leaving at midnight, the people can
sleep on the bus and by the time
they reach New York, they will be
rested and will have the whole day
to enjoy the sights.
"Leaving at midnight extends
the trip Gray said.
If one doesn't want to sleep, the
buses come equipped with televi-
sions and VCRs to keep the travel-
Hotel, which
lies close to
many touris-
tic locales.
"It's one
of the older
hotels in
New York
Gray said.
"It's located

trict and only
a block away
from Times

ation therapy to treat men with the
cancer. Other hormone medica-
tions are also prescribed as well.
Prior to leaving for New York, a
mini-orientation is held to go over
rules, regulations, and New York
bus and subway information.
"This gives the people the
opportunity to do exactly what they
would like to do at their leisure
Gray said. "Our emphasis is fun
and enjoyment on this trip
Both Gray and president of the
Student Union, Kristin Edwards,
will be in attendance on the trip as
chaperones.
"I will be the student trip leader
to answer any questions or prob-
lems that may arise Edwards said.
"I'm looking forward to it. I've
never seen New York over
Thanksgiving break before
Gray said they would have
office hours where people could
reach them if any questions or con-
cerns should arise.
The trip will last until Saturday,
November 28. The ECU clan will
venture back to the Emerald City
at midnight, arriving here at noon.

"I was surprised looking at the

"Everything is very reasonable
Many local artists have con-
tributed their works to the Evans
Street Gallery.
Their works include paintings,
ceramics, sculptures, jewelry, furni-
ture and other novelties. The fea-
tured artists whose works are on
exhibit until November 20 are
Susan Fccho and Kellcy Cleaton.
Fecho's art is mainly in two-
dimensional art and is called
"Mixed Media Cleaton's main
workings are in the area of ceramics
and pottery. The reception for
these artists will take place on
November 17.
Richard Pear and Roger
Kammcrcr are also local artists who
will be dispriaying their works from
November 23 thru December 5.
Pear will be displaying his pottery
works while Kammerer's planned
exhibit will contain paintings and
pen and ink drawings about "old
Greenville" architecture.
"I love doing paintings about
mostly rural life and the history of
Pitt County Kammerer said.
The featured artist for the end
of this year will be Teresa Muse
who will be showing her watercolor
works.
Many ECU graduates and stu-
dents have their art displayed cur-
rently at the gallery.
"We invite art students, or even
non-art students, to come here to
have their work displayed and have
a chance to observe other works
Morris said.
Right now the gallery faces the
trouble of looking "under construc-
tion with Evans Street being their
only entrance.
Though Morris was told that the
street would be finished in time for
the Christmas parade, it is clear that
the gallery will have limited visibil-
ity to contend with for the time
being.
The hours of the gallery are
Monday thru Friday, 10:30 a.m. to
6:00 p.m and Saturday, 11:00 a.m.

The Student Health Services
has an in-house pharmacy. The
pharmacy buys its medicine on a
state plan which makes the cost of
these products about 50 percent
less than buying retail drugs at a
local pharmacy. Some cost compar-

drugs between CVS and the

antibiotic, where thirty 500mg
tablets at CVS cost $15.59 versus a
price of $6.16 at the Health

CVS costs $26.44 versus $10 at the
Health Services; Allegra, for aller-
? gies, twenty 60mg tablets cost
$22.89 at CVS versus $18.36 at the
Health Services; Ibuprofen, pain
killer, fifty 200mg tablets prices at
$5.99 at CVS versus $1.06 at the
Health Services; Sudafed, for
cough and colds, twenty-four
tablets cost $5.99 at CVS versus
$1.06 at the Health Services; and
Prednisone, steroid anti-inflamma-

$5.99 at CVS versus $4.40 at the
Health Services. The prices of the
drugs offered at Student Health

CVS between 10 and 70 percent.

STAFF WRITER
Most students want to stay healthy,
though many get sick sometimes
and need medical care. When this
happens, most students turn to
Student Health Services (SHS) at
ECU. SHS is convenient and pro-
vides treatment very close to that of
an Urgent Care facility at an afford-
able price.
At the Beaufort County
Hospital Emergency Room an ini-
tial visit is around $150. The
Urgent Care in Greenville has an
initial visit price of $66 However,
Student Health Services initial
price is free because the fee is
included in tuition, but the draw-
back is rhat Student Health is only
open from 8 a.m. to 5 p.m. Monday,
Tuesday, Thursday and Friday
between 9 a.m. to 5 p.m. So, if you
get sick on the weekends or late at
night, you're out of luck. Your only
alternative then may be the
Emergency Room, which is open
24hrs. a day. You may have to pay
more at the Emergency Room, but
at least you will get seen. Costs at
both the Emergency Room and
Urgent Care depend upon services
provided. And, unlike at SHS, you
are obligated by law to pay the full
amount of the bill. Student Health
Service provides a pamphlet of the
cost of all lab work, x-rays, vaccines,
SEE BUCK. PAGE 10
There's a valuable resource on campus that
many students don't take advantage of. It's
neither the rec center nor the computer lab.
It is Student Health Services (SHS).
"I think a lot of students will be surprised
at what we have to offer said Heather
Zophy, Director of Health Education at
SHS.
Any currently enrolled ECU student has
paid a health fee and can take advantage of
the many services that SHS provides.
Services include urgent care, mental health
care, clinical care, health education and a
pharmacy that provides both prescription
drugs and over-the-counter medications at a
greatly reduced cost.
The urgent care clinic is available during
business hours. Students are assessed and
treated according to urgency.
"We do not have overnight facilities
Zophy said. "After 5 p.m. students have to
make a judgment call
SHS has 2 full-time clinical psychologists
on staff. Medication can be dispensed for
students with severe depression.
"We tend to treat the more acute emo-
tional problems Zophy said.
The clinical care services include an
allergy clinic to assist you with your allergy
injections. Colposcopy is a procedure
offered to women who have received an
abnormal Pap smear. Physical therapy is
offered to students with a referral from a
health care provider. The cost varies accord-
ing to the services needed.
SHS provides students with most forms
of birth control. Emergency contraception,
birth control pills, Depo-provera implants
and condoms may be obtained from the cen-
ter. Students can be fitted for a diaphragm,
but the pharmacy does not sell it. This year
for the first time SHS offers free and confi-
dential HIV testing.
In the event of a serious or life-threaten-
ing diagnosis, Student Health will refer you
to a local doctor. "We have a great relation-
ship with the ECU
School of Medicine, Pitt
Memorial Hospital and
the local doctors. We will
do everything we can.
When it is out of our
realm, we will refer stu-
dents to someone else
Zophy said.
Treating the ill is not
the only focus of
Student Health.
"Our mission is
health education Zophy
said.
Student Health provides preventive edu-
cation and outreach programs to organiza-
tions around campus. Topics include, but are
not limited to, substance abuse, eating disor-
health care.

said. "The staff is

According
to Zophy, an
exciting new
addition is expect-
ed to open in the
year 2001. The
addition, which
was co-designed by students, will provide
Student Health with 12,500 ft. of additional
space including labs and more rooms result-
ing in less waiting time for the students.

Zophy encourages students to come by

Zophy said. "There arc comment and sug-

The results of the last student survey
revealed that 93.1 percent of students arc-
happy with the services offered by Student
Health.
"We are trying to help students under-
stand the health care system so they know
when and where to go when they arc on their

Health care at the SHS a reliable resource
U
A d n i e Mullen
sWf writer
A few years ago, a student in
Greene Hall was afraid to go to
Student Health Services (SHS)
because she had heard bad things
about it. Now that former student,
Heather Zophy, spends everyday at
SHS. She is the director of health
education and she says mispercep-
tions about SHS need to be erased.
Some common misperceptions
that Zophy has heard include the
belief that medical students are the
health care providers and that the
lab work isn't reliable, making mis-
diagnosis common.
With ECU being known for the
School of Medicine it's easy to
make the assumption that medical
students provide the health care at
SHS, but Zophy says only residents
who have graduated from college
and are in their third of fourth year
of medical school work at Student
Health.
There is usually one resident
per month, according to Jolene
Jernigan, FNP the Clinical
Coordinator at SHS. Residents do
not work alone. Each resident is
assigned to a medical professional
who looks over his or herjwtient

Student Health Services at ECU
are accredited by the Joint
Commission on Accreditation of
Healthcare Organizations, a nation-
al organization.
Zophy and Jernigan both said
that specific lab results such as
strep throat and mono have a cer-
tain lapse of time before they
would show positive test results.
"It takes three to five days for a
strep throat culture to progress for a
positive test result. This should
explain why a student could
receive a negative strep test at SHS
and a few days later receive a posi-
tive strep test at hisher family doc-
tor. The key is to follow-up and go
back to the doctor if you still don't

director of clinical medicine.

According to Zophy, phone sur-

semester along with periodical
short handout surveys. Comment
boxes are provided in various
places throughout the building for
student input. If a student has a
problem with service at SHS, the
simple task of filling out a com-
ment card can and has changed
things. Christina Hour a student
at ECU, had a bad first experience
at SHS. "I came here (SHS) with a

she said. "I ended up in the emer-
gency room having a respiratory
attack and severe chest pain
Houtz said. "Student health has
responded to that with signs and

Houtz said she continues to visit
SHS and her experiences have
been good since. Houtz was in the
Student Health waiting room
recently, and she wasn't alone.
Approximately 350 students
patients are seen everyday at SHS.
Despite mispcrceptions about

The major disadvantage of
going to the SHS rather than to an
Urgent Care facility or the
Emergency Room is that a patient
may never see a doctor, while in
the other facilities it is pretty much
guaranteed. This lack of doctor
participation may result in bad
prognosis, but for routine exams,

Student Health Service is quite
capable and is well equipped with
nurse practitioners to handle-your

Pirates'
strong
opening
sports
The East Carolinian
Mario Scherhaufer
sports editor
Pirate fans, get ready for an unques-
tionably different version of the
ECU men's basketball team this
season. After losing four senior
starters from last year the Pirates put
their youngest team under fourth-
year head coach Joe Dooley on the
floor. Nevertheless, there is no rea-
son to worry. The two exhibition
games against Court Authority and
Next Level All-Stars have shown
that the potential of the team is by
no means weaker than last year's.
And the young team doesn't have to
prove anything.
Of course, the personnel losses
can scarcely be neglected. Still,
Dooley and his new coaching squad
are excited about the season to
come. Strong recruits and matured
returners give Pirate fans hope for
the future. After losing 73 percent of
their scoring and 64 percent of their
rebounding, the future is now for
ECU's young team. It's your turn
now to help them paint their future
purple and gold by filling the arena.
The Pirates will definitely need
your support in the upcoming sea-
son with very challenging oppo-
nents.
The 1998-99 ECU Pirates will
try to rebound from a disappointing
season. While precocious, with
eight freshmen and sophomores on
the roster, coach Dooley's team pos-
sesses increased athleticism and
proficiency. Hopefully, the growing
process will be a rapid one and the
Pirates can interlock the newcomers
1 with their experienced players as
they look for a successful crusade
this season.
Despite a lineup full of seniors
last season, the Pirates accom-
plished only a disappointing 10-17
record overall and were just 5-11
(seventh place) in the CAA. It was
the Pirates' first losing season since
1992-93. Nevertheless, the 7-6
home record marked the 10th
straight year that the Pirates have
had at least a .500 mark on their
home court in Williams Arena at
Minges Coliseum. Let's try to keep
this record running.
Alico Dunk and Garrett
Blackwelder are expected to lead
the young team. While we remem-
ber Dunk for his assists and as the
lone returning senior this year,
Blackwelder's most notable move is
his outside shot. It was exactly this
shot which sparked the 15-0 run of
the Pirates in their first exhibition
game when they came from behind
to defeat Court Authority 82-66.
Neil Punt and Alphons van
Ierland improved immensely after
struggling with injuries last year.
Van Ierland led ECU with seven
rebounds while adding 10 points
and three steals in the Pirate's first
victory of the new season. In
Monday's game against Next Level,
van Ierland turned out to finish with
a team-high 18 points and also
pulled down seven rebounds. After
Monday's game Dooley gave him
credits for setting the tone for ECU
and for moving more deliberate
offensively.
The most outstanding contribu-
tions to ECU's basketball program
in its two exhibition games came
from Evaldas Joeys and Larry
Morrisey. Joeys, who joined the
Pirates this year, coming from
Nebraska where he averaged 16
points and seven rebounds as a
sophomore, will offer the ECU line-
up quite a contrast from a year ago.
Both Joeys and Morrisey performed
in ECU's exhibition games on a
solid note by hitting back-to-back
three-pointers and field goals.

Hall, van Ierland stand out on and off court
Tracy H air r
ASSISTANT SPORTS EDITOR
Around the ECU campus, and now ready to begin action on the courts,
Alphons van Ierland and Quincy Hall tend to stand out with their seven-
foot statures. Without a doubt, these guys are exceptionally tall, but does
this necessarily entail a love for playing basketball or an innate possession
of the required skills for this sport? Maybe not for everyone, but for I lall
and Van Ierland, playing basketball is currently an influential aspect of
their lives.
Handling a basketball is certainly nothing new for Hall. Since he was
four years old, he was encouraged to play by watching his dad.
"When I was coming up, my dad, who's 6'6 played in a recreational
league Hall said. "I would go with him to play and he would always toss
me the ball, so my basketball career started early
Hall began growing fast, but he never really underwent a growth spurt
until he was about to enter high school.
"When I was in the eighth grade, I was 6'4" and rising to my ninth grade
year I grew to 6'9 Hall said. "From then on it seemed to be an inch every
year until I reached this height
Now at this well-above-average height, Hall admits that he receives dif-
ferent reactions when people either meet him for the first time or others
around him decide to discuss sports. And one of the most popular questions
is whether or not he plays basketball since he's so tall.
"It all depends on how people go about asking Hall said. "Sometimes
they want to ask 'how's the weather up there but sometimes they are
afraid to ask even if they want to because they see me around campus and
can tell that I don't smile a lot
Aside from all stereotypical assumptions and biological facts, Hall as an
athlete is sincerely affected by playing basketball.
"Right now I play just for fun Hall said. "But hopefully it will be for a
living in my future .
For Van Ierland, who is one of ECU's scholarship-athletes, being tall has
never been anything outstanding.
"I've always been taller that everyone else in my class Van Ierland
said.
Similar to Hall, questions often arise that relate to height, and at times
such inquisitive minds are welcomed, but during others Van Ierland would
rather not be bothered with the topic.
"So many people want to know how tall I am and if I play basketball,
and I don't really care if they ask Van Ierland said. "Sometimes when I'm
in a bad mood, I just don't want to deal with it, but overall I don't really

Football team ready for season home finale
Cardinals' offense has
to be destroyed for win
Travis Bark ley
senior writer
Saturday's home finale in Dowdy-
Ficklen Stadium promises to be a
high scoring affair when ECU takes
on the Louisville Cardinals.
The Cardinals are ranked No.l
in the nation in total offense, aver-
aging 546 yards per game.
Louisville is ranked third in passing
offense and seventh in scoring
offense, averaging over 38 points a
game.
Junior quarterback Chris
Redmon leads Louisville's potent
offensive attack, throwing for 383
yards a game. This season Redmon
has rewritten the Louisville record
book, owning every major single
season and career passing records.
Redmon started against ECU last
year in Louisville but was only 21 of
47 for 234 yards with two intercep-
tions.
Pirate head coach Steve Logan
says Redmon has improved since
last season, mainly because of the
offense implemented by new
Louisville coach John L. Smith.
"We've got one of the better col-
lege quarterbacks in the country
coming in here this Saturday
Logan said. "He's a much better
quarterback than he was last year.
He's got a much better scheme
around him
Logan says it will be important
for ECU to change its coverage
schemes.
"You can't give him anything
exclusive or he'll pick you apart
Logan said. "You can't be just man
and you can't be just zone, so we're
going to have to come up with some
stuff that's going to give hirn a little
bit of confusion
Senior noseguard Travis Darden
says the Pirate defense must pres-
sure Redmon to have a shot at win-
ning.
"We
much
know they're pretty
one dimensional
Darden said. "They're going
to pass a lot and we're not
going to stop that. But we've
got to get some type of control
of that to have an opportunity
to win the game, and 1 think
we'll get that done. We need to
hit him and hit him a lot. We
need to get him out of the
pocket so he's not just standing
there eating us up

Men's basketball defeat Global Sports All-Stars 101-82

Pirates win Mr second
exhibition game
Jonathan Russell
staff writer
ECU men's basketball team rallied
to beat the Global Sports All-Stars,
101-82, in their second exhibition
win of the season as Alphons van
Ierland lead the Pirates with 18
points and three blocked shots
Monday night. ECU took advan-
tage of the Global All-Stars lack of
depth in the second half to over-
come a four point halftime deficit.
The Pirates set the tone early by
pounding the ball inside to van
Ierland in an effort to exploit the
mismatch in size at the center posi-
tion. This opened up the perimeter
shooting to Larry Morrisey, who
capitalized on it by hitting four sec-
ond-half three-pointers.
Alico Dunk, the only senior on
the Pirate roster, did an excellent
job of leading the young ECU
team.
"I like leading the team because
they are willing to learn Dunk
said. "Everybody is so unselfish
that it makes the team a better enti-
cy
The Pirates bench came alive in
the second half with Garrett
Blackwelder's seven unanswered
points to give ECU the early lead
which sealed the victory. Quincy
Hall also had 10 points coming off
of the bench t6 help ECU solidify
the win.

In the win on Friday the Pirates
out-rebounded Team Finland 41-

the team performing intense
rebounding drills in practice and it
seemed to pay off for ECU. First-
year head coach Gibson has empha-
sized the importance of aggressive-
ness under the boards, a fact that
will complement her defensive phi-
losophy.
"We work on rebounding every
day in practice and I want us to be a
strong rebounding team Gibson
said.
As a team the Pirates really per-
formed well on offense. ECU

Before he was injured, Kerr was
having a tremendous game against
Cincinnati. He recorded 12 solo
tackles, one sack, an end zone

named Conference USA player of

When Van Ierland is busy on the

and often releasing different forms

"One example is, if I have a bad

Van Ierland also plans on pursu-
ing his playing career further, but

longer he'll still be pressing on as a
Pirate. ECU's basketball season is
presently underway, and both guys
feel positive about the 1998-99
team.
"This is my third year
here and I really feel that the whole
program is growing, especially
because we keep recruiting good
players Van Ierland said. "Plus,
we're going to be playing against
some really good teams
Hall also is particularly opti-
mistic since the addition of new
members will encourage changes.
"We've got a bunch of new guys
in and we're still practicing twice a

Outstanding season
before ultimate goal
Stephen Schramm
senior whiter
The ECU Men's cross country team
has fulfilled its first set of goals in its
1998 season in an impressive style.
The Pirates won three meets, won
the State Championship for the first
time in a decade, finished no lower
than fourth in all of their meets and
filled their season with impressive
individual performances. This
weekend the team will take a shot
at their ultimate goal, competing for
a national championship, at the
NCAA District 3 Regionals in
Greenville, S.C.
"I'm trying to make them think
that this is their ultimate goal. If you
want to be a national caliber team,
this should be your goal said
Leonard Klepack, head men's cross
country coach.
Last year, the Pirates finished
20th out of 29 schools at the
Regionals. They were led by Jamie
Mance, who finished 27th overall,
and Stuart Will, who placed 78th.
"Our goal is to do better than last
year. Our goal is to get into the top
12. There are so many fine teams
and we've had a very good year
Klepack said.
Mance, who was red shirted at
the beginning of the year, was not
among this year's talented cast.
This year the Pirates will send
junior Justin England, Steve
Arnold, Jason Trant, Brian Beil,
Craig Littlefield and senior Andrew
Worth, with the alternate being
Justin Poretti.
"Justin (England) and Will have
run well all year. Arnold and Beil
have consistently been in our top
four and I look for them to contin-
ue. Justin and Will's goal is to be;
among the top finishers and they
should be up there. I'm just looking
for a solid five Klepack said.
The Pirates will face tough com
petition from teams throughout the'
Southeast.
"The competition is very good.
There are six nationally ranked
teams in our region and that's a lot
Klepack said.
Two teams from the region qual-
ify for the next round in Lawrence,
Kan. with a third bid occasionally
given to a strong team.
"This is something that every
true cross country team shoots for.
They make it very difficult to make
it to the next round Klepack said.
Getting to the next round may
not be the Pirate's goal for this
weekend, but a strong showing
would cap an impressive season.
"We've already had an excellent
season and getting in the top 12
would be a bonus Klepack said.
Swimmers compete at meet
Mens, women steams
with opposite results
Todd Tallmadge
senior writer
While the lady Pirates swim team
improved its record to 4-0 with two
wins last weekend, the men were
unable to break through on to the
winning track and dropped their
record to 0-4. All of the meets so far
have been against conference foes.
The ECU women's swim team
won 133-107 over Old Dominion
University on Saturday. They then
went on to beat William & Mary
130-113 on Sunday. The men's
team lost a close meet to ODU on
Saturday 144-100, with W & M
beating them 157-85 on Sunday.
"The teams swam very well on
Saturday said Rich Kobe, ECU's
head swim coach. "We were a little
flat on Sunday
For the second time in as many
weeks the swim teams had two
meets on back-to-back days.
"These back-to-back meets put
a lot of stress on the swimmers
Kobe said. "Driving on Friday to
ODU, swimming on Saturday, then
going on to W & M on Sunday is
really tough
On the Lady Pirate team, Niki
Kreel lead the way with her wins in
the 200-meter breaststroke at both
meets (2:26.63 and 2:25.18).
Courtney Foster won the 50-meter
freestyle (24.88) on Saturday and
100-meter freestyle (54.38) on
Sunday.
The 400 medley relay team of
Kreel, Foster, Heather Hagedorn,
and Cammy Crossen won both
competitions in times of 4:03.76
and 4:01.72 respectively.
"We swam strong this week-
end Kreel said. "We swam the
relays with two of the regular four
being injured
The women's team currently
have some swimmers getting over
either sicknesses or injures. Both
Foster and Hagedorn are dealing
with nagging shoulder injuries.
"This is the most injured
women's team we have ever had
Kobe said. "We have the top two
and three breaststrokers in the CAA
dealing with injuries
On the men's side, Richard
Chen lead the way with two wins.
Chen won the 200-meter butterfly
(1:55.92) at ODU and again the
200-meter butterfly (1:58.27) at W
& M. Matt Jabs and Willy Hayes
were the only other ones to get
wins. Jabs won on Saturday in the
50-meter freestyle (21.98) and
Hayes won the 3-meter diving
event (145.2).
- "It is very frustrating and stress-
ful, we are not used to losing
Chen said. "The moral is up
despite the losses because we have
been swimming really well
The swim teams will be back in
action Saturday, Nov. 14, at 12 p.m.
