The year 1998 provided the American public with enough scandal, tragedy and intrigue to last at least until the millennium. The most important story, of course, was the impeachment of President Clinton. Linda Tripp began this year's debacle by informing the world on Jan. 12 of Monica Lewinsky's affair with the President, providing Paula Jones with a possible witness to the sexual harassment suit she filed against Clinton in May of 1994. Despite Lewinsky's denial of a sexual relationship and the President's statement that he "did not have sexual relations with that woman independent counsel Kenneth Starr, originally appoint- ed to investigate the Whitewater land deal, launched a full investigation. On April Fool's Day, a VS. district judge dismissed Paula Jones' lawsuit, too late to save the President's reputation. The day after Lewinsky testified under immunity before the grand jury on Aug. 6, the President confessed, "I did have a relationship with Ms. Lewinsky that was not appropriateIt constituted a critical lapse in judgment and a personal failure on my part for which I am solely and completely responsible President Clinton's constant apologies and hedgy grand jury testimony failed to deter Congress from voting on Dec. 19 to make him only rhe second president in American history to be impeached. From the day the Mouse began to debate the articles of impeachment until the day the vote was taken, the President launched a new set of air strikes against Iraq, called Operation Desert Fox. ij'The action resulted from a build-up of aggravation at Saddam Hussein's policies, including blatant challenge of American planes over the "no-fly" zones and refusal to comply with UN policies. The air strikes destroyed barracks for many of Hussein's elite guard, as well as a few missile sites. The majority of the Iraqi public was angered by the U.S. military action, and Hussein began to increase his defense of the "no-fly" zones and to make accusa- tions of treachery against Arab leaden that supported the U.S. Two deaths occurred in 1998 that awoke the government and the nation to the issue of "hate crimes a term used to describe a crime committed because of prej- udice of a spe- cific characteris- tic of the victim. In June, James Byrd Jr a handicapped black man, was chained by three white men to a pickup and dragged for miles across Jasper, Texas. He was muti- lated and decapitated. 'His murder revitalized the effort to increase the power behind hate crime leg- islation, most of which only protects vic- tims participating in federally protected activities, such as voting. Sen.

Ramey STAFF WRITER As the millennium approaches, the ECU campus is expanding to meet the changing needs of students in an age of technology. Projects worth a total of $180 million are in the works. These will hopefully make ECU more appeal- ing to future students. "The most challenging thing for us was to design the new Science and Technology Building said Bruce Flyc, director of Facilities, Planning and Construction. This building covering 259,000 square feet, contains three class- rooms and cost $58 million. Interdepartmental research will be conducted there, and chemistry and biology classes will meet there. The building should be completed in five years. The building, which is at the end of the design phase, is project- ed to be the largest and most expensive building on the main campus. Known as Science and Grads staying inNC Increase in new jobs keeps alumni in area Jason Merrill staff writer ECU's southeastern location may contribute more than just favor- able weather and Southern charm to graduates planning to remain in this region after graduation. According to Dr. James Westmoreland, director of Career Services at ECU, graduates can expect a bright future in the job market of tomorrow. Westmoreland cited studies that indicated a 19.3 percent increase in jobs for new graduates in the southeast, and he contrasted this with a 21.8 percent decrease in job opportunities for new gradu- ates on the West Coast These are very pleasing statistics for gradu- ates who plan to enter the job market in this area. As far as ECU graduates are concerned, only seven percent of the class of 1997 and five percent of the class of 1996 were unem- ployed and stilt seeking employ- ment within six months of gradu- ation. Westmoreland stated chat there are more and more opportu- nities for ECU graduates in many fields including electronics, com- puters, education, physical then- Technology Building, it will house the Chemistry Department along with the School of Industry and Technology. State legislators will get an overview of the project as they tour the site to decide about the funding that may be provided toward the construction of the facility. ECU hopes to receive some of the $52 million from the General Assembly near the end of the August session. Already the school has received $6.2 million for sight preparation and planning, but is still in need of much more in order to start con- struction. "Lab space is limited Chancellor Eakin said. 'To serve students well we need more lab space. The Science and Technology Building should do the trick. It will be one and a half times the size of the Rec Center Improvements will also be made on the Speight Building. In some classrooms, professors will be able to use laptops to project com- puter information onto overhead screens, providing a more efficient teaching tool than transparencies or chalkboards. Plans are in motion for the new dining hall on West Campus which will feature a more relaxed market- place type setting where students will enjoy food that is prepared before their eyes. Developers are currently planning the dining hall which will be two stories hign and eventually take the place of Mendenhall dining area. Efforts have also been focused toward the traffic problems near campus. New parking lots are pro- posed for the north end of Ficklen Stadium. This will provide 600 new parking spaces. Existing gravel parking lots will be paved and have emergency phones and lights added. Finally, renovations on Jarvis and Jones are planned. Jarvis will receive new air conditioning and more modem bathrooms. Jones will get a new sprinkler system and have air conditioning added. Belk will be destroyed so that College Drive can be extended to meet 14th Street. (25J www.c Tolerance is not enough. Dr. Martin Luther King Jrs dream was that one day blacks and whites would not merely tolerate each other, but live together in mutual love and respect. He admitted the challenges of this dream, "It is pretty difficult to like some people. Like is senti- mental and it is pretty difficult to like someone bombing your home; it is pretty difficult to like some- body threatening your children; it is difficult to like congressmen who spend all of their time trying to defeat civil rights. But Jesus says love them, and love is greater than like What motivated him were these words from Jesus: "Love your enemies, do good to those who hate you, bless those who curse you, pray for those who abuse you. If you love those who love you, what credit is that to you? But love your enemies, and do good and your reward will be great, and you will be sons of the Most High; for he is kind to the ungrateful and selfish With a commitment to love even his enemies, Dr. King led an historic civil rights movement without any violence or vengeance. As he said, We must be concerned aboutthe sacred- ness of all human life. Every man is somebody because he is a child of God Why Is tolerance not enough? You can tolerate people without loving them. But loving them is what will defeat racism.

Dry FEATURES EDITOR Higher education plays an impor- tant role in a person's path to his or her ideal career. But in this day and age, it seems as if a four year degree no longer cuts it. Many students realize that grad- uate school is almost necessary so they may stay in the running for competitive occupations. According to Randy Gilland, an ECU grad student studying coun- selor education, grad school can prepare students for their future. "Graduate school is the best way to gain that extra education and experience Gilland said. Since he graduated from ECU with an undergrad in Psychology, Gilland contemplates the differ- ences between both schools. "Maturity plays a definite fac- tor Gilland said. "I'm more seri- ous and put more time into my work. As a grad student, we do all we can instead of just trying to get by One of the major differences between graduate and undergrad is the course work load. Gilland said that in grad school it is more involved. "The classes are more focused and demanding Gilland said. "That's probably why students don't need so many hours According to Gilland, the cours- es aren't so much reading from text books and listening to the profes- sors lecture, but more research based. "The courses are more focused Gilland said. "We (cam from other students as well. Professors are also more relaxed, but they expect graduate work Besides taking centralized courses, some grad students get the opportunity to obtain hands on experience in their field. As a counselor education major, Gilland applied for assistanccships to obtain more experience in his field and was hired by undergraduate studies to teach a reading course. He was also hired by Dr. Brian Haynes to work in minority affairs. "I act as a liaison between Dr. Haynes' office and the Native American organizations around campus Gilland said. With both his courses and his Sfl GRAD.

Basically, none of us will have been born yet. Meaning that on a small scale, cred- it cards will have expired and no one will be able to collect Social Security. Though on the up side, the IRS will not be able to levy taxes because they didn't exist in 1900. Scared yet? The government is definitely concerned and so are any number of other industries ranging from computing to banking to trav- el. An entirely new industry has sprung up to worry about the Y2K problem and work on a cure. There is a team here at ECU working on the Millennium Bug for all of the computers on the ECU network. "ECU has been working dili- gently on resolving the issues about the Y2K problem. We have not only been working on financial sys- tems, but on personal computers within campus also said Leon Gipson, applications analysis pro- grammer. Vice Chancellor Richard Brown has made sure that a large amount of money has been put forth into making sure that the Personal Computers (PC's) in the labs have been cured of the Millennium Bug. "We have been working on this for years and the student data sys- tem was all done in 1995 said Don Dunlap, Director of Software Development Services. "Some of our financial systems we are still working on an will be done in March "We feel very comfortable that we will resolve this issue before the given time period said Gipson. . . � t - Tjur River Estates is blowing the whistle on the competition! z40T You will feel like a champion in our 1 2- or 3- bedroom townhomes.

"I didn't expect it to take up as much of my time, but it is worth it Gilland said. "I am definitely more prepared by just the experi- ence I have gotten from teaching Besides its undergrad programs, ECU's graduate school programs offer a variety to students who wish to continue their education after four years at a university. "ECU has 60 masters programs and 10 PH.D programs said Gail Pinkham, manager of graduate admissions. "Not many schools offer such a variety of programs According to Pinkham, when applying for grad school the most important things applicants can do are: read all of the directions on the application, make all of the dead- lines and get in touch with the graduate director of the program desired. "Depending on the program, some have earlier deadlines than others Pinkham said. "That's why it is very important to know when they are in order to get your application in on time Pinkham believes it is important to talk to the graduate director so a students name can become more familiar to the graduate director. "I always encourage students to get in touch with their graduate director and let them know who you are, that you arc applying for their department and that you are quite interested Pinkham said. "This way they will have an idea of who you are if your name comes up again Applicants also must go through numerous requirements before being accepted into the program, graduate school exams known as , GREs, which are similar to high school SATs are among the differ- ent requirements. There are different forms of this test for the numerous programs: MAT, which is a test that consists of 100 analogies; GMAT, which is the exam taken by business stu- dents; are some of the challenging requirements graduate hopefuls must first pass before admittance. Others such as the TOEFL exam, are given to international students wishing to enroll in ECU programs. "It is for) students coming from foreign countries who were not taught in English Pinkham said. The GREs can be taken here at ECU. If you're looking for a little more assistance before you take the GRE, there are prep courses offered at the Student Life Research Assessment and Testing office. Once all of the information is received at the office of graduate admissions, Pinkham said it is keyed into the computer so that the graduate department has immediate access to a student's file.

He also said that these additional opportunities, in conjunction with the reputation of ECU students as employees with a strong sense of work ethics, are responsible for the good placement of ECU graduates in an increasingly competitive job market. As career opportunities become increasingly special- ized, many ECU graduates continue their education in graduate school. Fourteen percent of ECU graduates from the class of 1997 became full-time graduate students, and an additional six percent went on to graduate school on a part-time basis. Westmoreland stated that despite the common miscon- ception that ECU is primarily a party school, ECU's alumni place very well in graduate school; some graduates have even gone on to graduate schools as prestigious as Harvard and Stanford. Overall, Westmoreland emphasized that maintaining a good GPA is more important than the major course of study. He feels that employers look at col- lege degrees as an indication that an applicant is capable of learning to perform the complicated tasks that are required in today's job market He also urged students to come to Career Services as soon as possible in order to speak with a counselor. They have thousands of job listings arranged by both major and employer, as well as information about the degrees offered at various graduate schools. Increasing numbers of students are staying in Eastern North Carolina after graduation.

I9M news The East Carolinian Internet becomes daily routine for most students i Distance learning now available on campus SUSANNE MlLENKBVICH STAFF WRITE Throughout the past decade, the Internet has become a way of life for many people as it offers a world of information that is readily avail- able. As the millennium approaches, the Internet will continue to be a part of the dairy routine and will become even more prevalent in the lives of the students, faculty, and staff at ECU. ECU's web site offers the com- munity much information about the university as well as access to records. Registration may be com- pleted over the Internet, and recently courses were made avail- able to be taken over the Internet for college credit at a small price. ECU signed a three-year con- tract in 1998 with Real Education, Inc. for $30,000 to expand the online courses already offered by the university, and a Distant Education and Extension advisory board was established to advise the university on decisions concerning the online courses. The distant learning program allows people worldwide to take ECU courses and receive credit for completed courses through the Internet. Five new courses have already been made available through the Internet for off-campus students. The courses include ELEC 4505, Internet Tools, ASIP 3220, Business Communications, EDUC 3200, Introduction to American Education, RCLS 2000 Introduction to Leisure Services, and ITEC 3292 Industrial Safety. The courses were chosen from a list of 10 and based on the potential audience, the availability to off campus and on campus students, and because of the amount of time the faculty had to prepare the courses. The five new courses may only be accessed on the Real Education, Inc. home page where anyone interested in taking a course can choose from a number of courses offered by universities throughout the nation. ECU has also begun creation of Internet courses that to be available on the university home page. Dr. Richard Ringeisen, vice chancellor of Academic Affairs, appointed a task force of faculty and administration members to work on developing those online courses. The content of all courses to be offered on the Real Education, Inc. and ECU web sites will be provid- ed by ECU faculty, who will super- vise the academic and curriculum matters. "Several faculty members are working this spring and summer to develop more online courses Ringeisen said, By creating the online courses ECU has joined other schools such as UNC-Chapci Hill and NC State in the age of technology with much success as we approach the new millennium. "Online courses really arc work- ing for ECU Ringeisen said, "We will be seeing a large increase in online courses in the future For more information about the distant learning courses, you can visit Real Education's web site at http:www.RealEd.com.

Lisred as one of the top 25 most wired schools in the nation last year, ECU continues to build pro- grams that encourage advance- ments in television, computer, dig- ital, and even sound techniques that have made it even easier to gain access to some of the top new technological toys on the market. New gadgets range from light- weight computers, cellular phones no bigger than a index card, along with VCR type machines which play video's on a CD format known as DVD player are among the many new inventions which have recently became the next wave of the future of technology. ECU also has found themselves in the middle of the technology frenzy.incorporating new teaching techniques with new advance- ments from the digital communi- cations world. Many classes now rely heavily on the aspects and help of computers and the internet. Programs such as ones from the Students working diligently in an on-campus computer lab. PHOTO BY MICHAEL SMITH medical program have been initiat- ed to help others from far away towns relieve medical attention. The telemedical program allows doctors to view patients who live in other cities through the help of the internet and the new computer technology initiated here at ECU. "Technology is increasing the access, as well as the quality of health care in North Carolina said Lori Maiolo, training center coordi- nator. To date, the program has com- pleted 3,000 consultations in 34 different specialties of medicine through its REACH-TV network at 12 clinical sites. The technical team at ECU integrated advanced telecommunications technologies into a uniform network, creating the most flexible telemedical net- work in the country. Students have also found them- selves interacting with the new advancements, bringing more per- sonal computers and laptops to school every semester. Western Carolina University already requires students to bring comput- ers to school, a condition that many other colleges in the state plan to adopt within the next few years. ECU also plans to begin con- struction soon on a new building, to be finished by fall of 2002, to house the Chemistry Department and other technology-related depart- ments. Plans for the finish of the building could come possibly as soon as the fall semester of 2002. The construction comes on the heels of a University of North Carolina System consultant's choice of Flanagan as one of the two worst academic facilities in the system. Many have found themselves wondering what will be next for the upcoming years of the technol- ogy wave. Experts predict faster, better quality, more lightweight computers with price tags that may soon rival those of today's personal computers. Rachael Higdon staff writer Minority Student Organizations have shown increasing growth and will continue to support diversity on campus through the year 2000. In the past five years such groups as the NAACP, the Black Student Union, the Native Amcricam fraternity Epsilon Chi Nu, and the Native American sorority Sigma Omicron Epsilon have been formed and have flour- ished, gaining members and sup- port every year. Campus leaders, such as the Director of Minority Student Affairs Brian Haynes, believe that the need for specific culturally based groups is growing at univer- sities across the United State at the enrollment includes a broader ethnic base. These types of groups will multiply in the coming yean. Haynes also thinks that America will continue to shift from a society based on one culture to one that embraces all cultures. When groups are formed to identify a spe- cific segment of the student popu- lation, that segment is able to join the mainstream and use its voice. According to Haynes, in order to live and work in a diverse society, students need to become more aware of their own personal preju- dices and take responsibility for addressing bias and discrimination that they encounter. To be suc- cessful in overcoming stereotypes, we need to be able to understand and avoid common misconcep- tions. Along with becoming more dominant in the university system, persons of color will also be the majority population by the year 2025. The face of the US is chang- ing and so will the workplace and the educational environment. This will increase the need to gain respect for all genders and races. The growth and success of minori- ty student organizations at ECU gives the campus a positive out- look toward the year 2000. "We all need to work to gain a better understanding of diversity Haynes said. The International Student Program is looking toward its goal for the future: growth. Although fluctuating over the past five years, growth has been slow and steady, and the hope is that the new mil- lennium will bring more interna- tional students and an increase in the exchange program. To achieve this goal, they are making more directed efforts at recruiting and following up more consistently. Nation continued from page 1 one hand tied behind their backs he said. Some conservative Republicans have attacked hate-crime legisla- tion because of their inclusion of gays and lesbians as protected vic- tims. That stance was challenged in October when Wyoming college student Matthew Shcpard was tied to a fence with severe head trauma in nearly-freezing temperatures. He lay in a coma on full life-sup- port until his body gave out on Oct. 12. Though the two men and two women charged with the crime claim robbery as a motive, gay rights advocates say otherwise, cry- ing for attention to the matter, holding candle-light vigils and demanding inclusion of gays and lesbians into hate crime laws. With the sharp-looking I-Macs selling like hotcakes and AOL's acquisition of Netscape, not to mention the impending Y2K bug moving to the forefront of techno- logical concern, 1998 saw a great deal of activity on the computer front. The most publicized event was the Microsoft trial. Several soft- ware companies backed the Justice Department in accusing Bill Gates, of running a monopoly on comput- er software, pointing to Microsoft's 80 to 90 percent command of oper- ating systems as evidence that the company has used nasty tactics to get ahead. Microsoft, however, has responded by remarking the Netscape-AOL deal and Sun Microsystems' Java technology as a new wave of competition in an ever-changing market.

This year, ECU Ipenior Jim Bray will go Jim with the hope of join- ing their ranks. Bray is known for his comedic ventures and 'the lability to steal the show iwith song and dance. � Upon his arrival at ECU Jim Bray 'in the fall of 1995, he j Wasted no time in get- icing involved with the ECU ! Playhouse. Bray's first role came to him in production "Destry Rides Again" as a member of the chorus jinscmble. His talent was recog- jhized even at this early point in his career because he was at first called back for one of the lead roles. Bray 'said that even though he was disap- Einted in not getting the lead, he ilizes now that he was not ready such a part at the time, j! Other productions Bray has per- Jformed in include "Tartuffe "Big jjtiver "I.B�" "Lysistrata "The Mystery of Edwin Drood f Landscape of the Body "Mother licks "Cabaret "Mother urage and a workshop entitled Personals He has also participat- I in many directing projects.

"It's a great opportunity to gain experience Out of all the productions Bray has currently performed in, "Cabaret" has to be his favorite. According to Bray, the part of the MC was quite challenging. "I think I was ready for a role like that Bray said. "I feel that I was mature enough to handle a role like that Bray said he realized that if he had taken on a role like this his freshman year, it would just have been "Jim Bray making funny faces, trying to steal the show instead of being the person Bray said he wants to be in roles that challenge him, proving that he can do other things instead of being type-cast in the loud mouth, outgoing roles. He is looking for- ward to auditioning for the upcom- ing Playhouse productions, "Our Town Hot I Baltimore" and whatever workshops come up. As a child Bray always had a love of acting. While growing up in Winston-Salem, NC, he was what many people would consider a "ham "When you're young, TV is in your face all of the time Bray said. "I had dreams of being on TV shows like 'Family Ties' and hav- ing my picture all over teen maga- zines. There was always something about it that definitely intrigued me when I was little Although Bray took acting class- es at a community theater through- out his grade school years, he was- n't really into it when he first began high school. According to Bray, he thought the people in theater at Mt. Tabor High School were "weird Upon the persuasion of a friend, Bray decided to take a theater class, where he met many interesting characters his freshman year. This still did not increase his appeal to join theater, as he joined the track team in the spring. During this time Mt. Tabor was presenting the musical "Grease Bray's drama teacher offered him the part of Eugene, but he declined. "I was running track, and it was more important to me at the time Bray said. "1 now regret that 1 didn't do it He did continue to take the- ater classes, however. During his sophomore year, Bray joined the cross country team, but he did not enjoy him- self. As soon as cross country sea- son was over, he went back to what had been his calling all along, and never ran for his school again. From that moment on, Bray spent all of his time in the the- ater department. While acting, he also did a lot of the pre-pro- duction work such as building sets, working the lights, and became the stage manager for one of the plays. "Doing all of the behind the scenes work taught us the responsibility behind what we wanted to do Bray said. It was during his senior year that all of the hard work paid off as he received his first lead role in the musical production "Damn Yankees where he played Mr. Applegate. According to Bray, his drama teacher suggested he take up musi- cal theater as a major once he came to college. At first Bray thought it w uld be better to do just straight acting instead of musical theater. "Musical theater isn't in your face all the time like TV and films are Bray said. "You can't see a Broadway show in your living room He finally decided to heed the schools at the audition Bray said. "I got called back by eight, but ECU wasn't one of them Bray spoke with the ECU repre- sentative who told him to come visit the school. Jim Bray steals the show as he performs as the MC in "Cabaret PHOTO COURTESY OF ECU PLAYHOUSE WEBSITE suggestion of his teacher, and major in musical theater and minor in communications "to have some- thing to fall back on" if the acting thing didn't happen. After looking at eight different schools, Bray started going to schol- arship auditions, one of which was held in New Bern, NC. "There were 10 different Upon his arrival, Bray spoke with chairperson, John Shearin, and the musical teacher at the time who told him to audition for the produc- tion he would be putting on in the fall and to make sure he was seen around the department. After graduating from high school in 1995, he chose to attend ECU. According to Bray, ECU is one of the best theater schools in the state among the state support- ed schools. Bray recognizes that a lot of his success came from the support of the faculty and his friends. "Dr. Don Bichn has been the biggest impact on me Bray said. "He was a great teacher who support- ed me and taught me to trust myself. "Friends are really important. They have been one of the best things for me. They've helped me through many times. I don't know what I would have done if it weren't for my friends in the theater department After graduation Bray plans to do some summer stock theater and in either August or September move to New York. "I want to go up there and excel Bray said. "I want to affect people the way I am affected when I see a movie. I want to enable them to have some sort of connection with what I am doing For those who are inter- ested in theater, Bray leaves these final words of wisdom: "Audition for every show. Don't let one show pass you by that you don't audition for Bray said. "Also make sure what you are doing here is because you love it, not just because you think it is some sort of cool thing A j 9 Tueidiy, January 19. 1999 features Thl Elit CaroliniM Yoga becomes popular new exercise trend Many prepare for career world1 Classes offered at Recreation Center Nina M. Dry FEATURES EDITOR Erica Sixes staff writer Yoga is a system of exercises for attaining bodily or mental control and well-being. It's more than just a bunch of pretzel positions that supposedly help you lose weight; it is a great stress relieving technique and is a growing trend leading into the millennium. The recreational center at ECU offers Yoga to inter- ested students. "Yoga courses were introduced to the Rec Center in the Spring of '97, right when the facility opened up said Kari Brown, director of fit- ness at the Rec Center. "With Yoga being on an up trend, (he demand has been going up. This had been our strongest year Aside from being rated one of the best fitness programs you can do without bouncing around and working up a sweat, it offers a plethora of other health benefits. Yoga improves your flexibility, helping you feel more relaxed (which is especially good around exam time) and also reduces the likelihood of muscle strain and sports related injuries. Another benefit of the program is that it reduces stress by promoting deep relaxation, increasing blood circula- tion and improving coordination. "The mind and body classes are quite popular among the students Brown said. "I incorporate the breath and relaxation into my classes said Dcbi Niswander, yoga instructor at the Rec Center. "I focus on relax- ation and the removal of stress out of the body, mind and emotions Yoga also conditions your mus- cles without the use of weights and barbells. This is obtained through resistance exercises that use your own body weight. Yoga can also (listen up ladies) relieve those once a month killer pains. This exercise opens up your chest cavity and stretches the mus- cles in your lower back alleviating killer cramps. Keeping your hands planted at your feet while stepping into a push-up position, slowly lower your knees, then your chest, and finally your chin to the floor. Inhale deeply, moving your body forward and upward. Keep your shoulders relaxed. Try not to sag in the middle and keep your arms straight. Despite this exercise that targets 'females. Yoga is not just for women anymore. "Although the classes tend to have more females, we do have a mix of males and females in our classes Brown said. Yoga classes will be offered this semester at the Rec Center. From Jan. 27 through March 3 there will be an introductory course offered every Wednesday at 4 p.m. If Wednesdays aren't good times, another introductory course will be held from Jan. 28 through March 4 with courses every Thursday at 5:30 p.m. For those who have already com- pleted an intro course, there is an advanced beginners class offered every Tuesday starting from Jan. 26 through March 2 at 5:30 p.m. "Each class can accommodate 28 students Brown said. "To register, students need their ECU one card. It is $15 for students and members To register, go. to the main office at the Rec Center during office hours (Monday-Friday, 8 a.m. to 6 p.m.) and sign up. Classes tend to fill-up quickly. "It's phenomenal how quickly they fill up Niswander said. Departments offer assistance to students Phillip Gilfus STAFF WRITER As a new semester starts, many students may find themselves stressing about the future. Not to worry: ECU has many services that make it easy for students to choose their majors and careers. "There shouldn't be any pan- icking going on if a student is still undecided said Lynn Roeder, director of the Center for Student Counseling and Development. "We just want students to have an idea of what their focus is by their junior year A student can use a personal assessment of his or her interests, strengths and weaknesses to fill out the college major selection form, available at the office of Undergraduate Studies. This helps to narrow the field of choic- es of majors. "When students come to me for help, I think one of the most important steps is showing them the requirements for certain majors said Don Joyner, assis- tant dean of Undergraduate Studies. "A science or foreign lan- guage requirement may make the difference between whether or not a major is suitable for a student Students may worry chat once they choose a major there is no chance for change, but that is not true. "People think majors are for life Joyner said. "What students need to remember is that people change careers all their lives Students who have just decided on a major may think that it is too early to start consider- ing a career path, but if a they gets jobs in their fields while in school so that they can gain some experi- Dr. Jim Westmoreland helps I student look through material during � reference search at Career Services.

According to Dr. Henry VanSant, EClI's associate athletics director, the official schedule will "Then is always a lot of enthusiasm involved in the Pirate-Wolfpack rivalry. This rivalry means a lot to students and fans as well. I think that this year it will be a great game again Dennis Young Executive director of the AthleiicsPirate Club not be available until the end of this month, but it is already being called the best home game schedule ever in Pirate football history. South Carolina will be ECU's first away opponent with Army, UAB and Houston rounding out the schedule on the road. "We played a lot of good teams Greenville before, but this is the first time Duke and NC State are coming to town VanSant said. "Our footbal' program is growing and getting stronger and our players deserve big-name institutions which present a bigger challenge and additional motivation to them According to VanSant there are several reasons why ECU didn't have a similar attractive schedule before, with the completion of the upper-deck extension at Dowdy Ficklen Stadium as the most obvi- ous one. "Due partly to the new 43,000 capacity of the stadium and to some political pressure, NC State became more receptive to play at Greenville VanSant said. Additionally, there is a policy of scheduling home-and-home with some schools, which means that both teams agree to play at each others stadium the following year, VantSant said. Money, of course, can attract good teams as well, but according to VanSant, there is usually the same amount of money exchanged between two schools. "If they pay us $100,000, for example, to come to their school, we would pay them $100,000 to come to our school the following year VantSant said. Looking at the impressive names of teams, there is no ques- tion that Greenville will be the media focus a couple of times in the 1999 football season. Now it's up to the coaching staff and the team to use this opportunity of media exposure and get ready for the challeng- ing season. "The upside of this sched- ule is that if you win those games you'll get the people's attention, but you have to win those games first said Steve Logan, ECU football head coach. "It's our job now to take this group of kids and try to maximize their abilities The Pirate defense line will be the biggest question mark in the 1999 team after ECU lost four defensive starters including Roderick Coleman, who is the Pirate career sacks leader, as well as Travis Darden. "We're going to redo our defense with putting the emphasis on speed and quick- ness. ;tWe won't be strong but we will be a lot faster Logan said. Another big loss for the team will be the loss of Troy Smith, who Logan calls the best wild receiver in his 25- year-career as football coach. "You don't replace guys like that You have to find a way to do things differently Logan said. According to Logan, quar- terback Bobby Weaver, who is currently recovering from his knee injury will not be avail- able for spring practice but is expected to return to action for the fall season. "He is drop- ping back and throwing balls. We can't count on him for spring but for fall Logan said. David Garrard, last year's red-shirt freshman quarter- back, was considered one of 1998's major positive surprises by Logan and the Pirate fans. "I think that we really got everything out of the kids last year considering that we had a red-shirt freshman quarterback and considering the injury fac- tor Logan said. Such a big home schedule also means less travel and orga- nization stress for everybody involved, according to Logan. "It simply is a win-win situ- ation for everybody said Dennis Young, executive director of the AthleticsPirate Club. "This schedule is great for our athletic program, for the Pirate Club, and for the entire uni- versity. And don't forget the kids who will be out on the field in front of a sold-out Dowdy Ficklen Stadium facing a top-ranked team from Miami. It will be a lot of excitement for everybody involved According to Young, this sched- ule, which he calls the best home schedule ever in ECU football his- tory, will be a tremendous boost for the Pirate Club as well. 'This (home schedule) promis- es a definite growth in membership numbers and season tickets Young said. "And for the fans and students, there will be a number of great football Saturdays coming up this fall in Greenville Young calls Miami the toughest opponent, but he also said that NC State will bring a lot of emotions into town. "There is always a lot of enthu- siasm involved in the Pirate- Wolfpack rivalry Young said.Young still remembers the day when Pirate fans stormed the field and tore the goal post down in 1987 after the Wolfpack was defeated 32- ECU Football Opponents for 1999 am WEST VIRGINIA (at Charlotte) DUKE South Carolina MIAMI Army SOUTHERN MISSISSIPPI TULANE Houston University of Alabama Birmingham jamfn.A CINCINNATI fflMUfoWSk NC STATE (HOME) Source: ECU football head coach Steve Logan ffls JlLAtE 14 in the season-opening game.

Nevertheless, Young does think that this rivalry means that addi- tional security will be necessary for the game against NC State.

But, the Pirate basketball players surprised everybody except them- selves by starting the season off well. Thanks to the good work of coaches and the versatility of the players, the ECU men's basketball team headed into the Christmas holidays with a 5-3 record and a first place ranking in the conference. These numbers changed over the break after the Pirates unfortu- nately got hit by a series of injured players. Junior forward Evaldas Joeys is out indefinitely with a frac- tured left foot according to the ECU Sports Information. Joeys has been the unexpected leader through the first part of the season.

Both Miami and NC State have a long ball-game history with ECU and the Pirates will try to add two wins on their negative records with those two schools.

The Pirates jumped out of-the chute fast this season with an early record of 5-0. Over the Thanksgiving holiday they picked up the Warner Classic Championship tide and then competed in the championship game of the Chescbrough-Ponds Invitational and were handed their first loss of the season against Davidson. "In our losses, mainly our defense didn't attack like we should said Beth Jaynes, senior center. That defense is one of the things that Dee Gibson will try to Basketball continued from page 13 important roles Dooley said. "We need to keep our focus and concentrate on building momen- tum as we continue conference play Nine more games and the CAA tournament remain on the Pirates schedule. "The bulk of our conference games are ahead of us and every- one is ready to get them started to see how we really stand up Dooley said. The Pirates boasted an 8-6 record going into last Wednesday's match up against Old Dominion where ECU's Neil Punt had tied the game at 51-51 with a lay up at the :22 mark. Nevertheless, ODU ran the clock down inside 10 sec- onds before Mike Byers hit a run- ning jumper to help lift the Monarchs to the close victory over the Pirates. These close games though, will decide how the Pirates fare in the conference which they were expected to finish last in. Several key players have been making the good start happen for the Pirates this season. Alico Dunk has been supplying a rela- tively young team with much needed senior leadership. "Alico has been a great leader on and off the court Dooley said. "He has played his role in every game and he does whatever it takes to get the win Freshman Brandon Hawkins has been impressive since the start. He is the team's second lead- ing scorer and leads the team in assists. Hawkins averaged 10.8 points per game in his first five starts at the guard position. He shows great promise and gives Pirate basketball a bright future. The Pirates starting lineup has changed several times this season and the team is starting to really play together. "We have many interchange- able players this year Dooley said. 'The team is very versatile ECU students have always been supportive of Pirate basket- ball and its players, and coaches hope the student body will contin- ue to attend games and show their enthusiasm. "Winning isn't everything to me ECU senior Christy Pratt said. "I just like going to the games and giving the team my support. The games are exciting and the pep band really makes things fun Nevertheless, the arena still has not been close to being sold out ECU and UNCW have one of the most heated rivalries in the CAA.

All year the Pirates have seemed to jump out in the second half and take control of the game in most of the Pirates' wins. This proved true on Jan. 10 when the Pirates downed JMU, 70-61, after a sluggish start. � "We're a second half team said Waynetta Veney, point guard and team leader.

This year most teams will be bolstered with new talent and familiar players who hit new levels of success. We have already seen a few athletes who have shown promise and intend to make this season one of their own. The ECU women's basketball team is off to its best start of the decade. This is due largely to Waynctta Veney, a 5'10" point guard in her first year playing on the squad. She spent two years at the College of Charleston before transferring to ECU last year. The Hampton, Va. product sat out last year under ex-coach Anne Donovan. This year she has had to adjust to a new coach and a new role as a team leader. "Our team goes as she goes said Dee Gibson, women's head basketball coach. "She's our leader. When she plays well, we have a great opportunity to win. She is an integral part of our team Veney is currently leading the league in assists and scoring, aver- aging an impressive 17.3 points per game. She plays an important role in ECU's fast-paced game. "Our style is well suit- ed for her style. She's not really a walk-the-ball- up-the-floor type of point guard Gibson said. The men's team has a rising star of their own. Evaldas Joeys, a native of Lithuania, comes to ECU from Western Nebraska Community College. While at Western Nebraska, the 6'9" for- ward was named JUCO All-America. Joeys has led the Pirates in scoring so far this season, averag- ing over 14 points per game. The junior also picked up the CAA Player of the Week for strong performances fil against Liberty and the Ragin' Cajuns of USL. "He's got to provide leader- ship said Joe Dooley, men's head basketball coach. "He's got lots of skills. As he gets more comfortable Waynetta Veney FILE PHOTO he will be able to exhibit more of those skills Equally as com- pelling as the journey of Joeys and Veney is the story of the track team's Terry Speller. The Williamston, N.C. native walked onto last year's team but was injured while playing basketball before he could race. Thus, Speller did not compete on last season's loaded squad. This year the sophomore has returned to the track team and has done noth- ing but impress in practice. "He's back this year and he's coming along nicely said Bill Carson, men's head track coach. "Terry likes to talk a lot, but I think this year he can back it up. He's per- forming very well in practice but he's still got a lot to learn Speller is a nice addi- Evaldas Joeys tion to a team that is full rut photo of rising stars. In addi- tion to the long list of conference champions that return, the team welcomes back an Ail- American, James Alexander, and two one-time track stars who went to try their luck with football. Women's Basketball continued from page 14 player of the week. She has also led the team in scoring and assists despite sitting out some games because of an ankle sprain. On Jan. 8, the women captured another win against William & Mary, defeating the Tribe 71-59. Considering such success, the second half of the season does promise to be tough for ECU. Long-time menace Old Dominion heads the list with ECU trying to get revenge at this nationally ranked team which handed the Pirates three losses last season. "We always know Old Dominion will be tough, but our goal is always the tournament CAA and making it to the NCAA tournament Jaynes said. Jaynes scepticism proved to be ri?ht when the Pirates fell to the No. 11 Lady Monarchs 81-52 in CAA action on Friday night. "I feel that we struggled offensively Gibson said. "After the first half we stopped attacking The losses this year for ECU have been to very good teams. Davidson and Virginia Tech were teams the Pirates knew they would have to play well against, and it just was not enough.

The unofficial name of the ECU pep band as The Sixth Man Band describes how the group works to establish themselves as that next presence on the court The pep band uses upbeat music, cheers and a positive attitude to energize ECU fans and support Pirate bas- ketball. "We make sure the crowd stays involved and we support the team said Donny Allen, pep band director. "The band also dpes cheers as part of the pregame and tries to create a sense of school pride Another aspect of the ECU pep band is the effect it has on opposing teams. Band members use loud music and taunting cheers to break the concentration of visiting players on free-throws. "We like to get rowdy and get into the head of the opposing team Allen said. "We try to irritate and really annoy them The pep band stands the entire game as a method of showing sup- port for Pirate basketball. Band members also have ritual cheers and tactics they want the crowd to help them participate in. With the crowd contributing their voices as well, the band hopes Pirate players will benefit while opposing teams will struggle. "We are as rowdy as possible and try to energize the crowd said David Holt, an ECU pep band member. "We scream, holler and have lots of fun The pep band, however, docs not forget its musical duties and music lovers will be very impressed with The Sixth Man Band's performance. Musical numbers include 70's funk, 80's rock and current radio hits. The fight song and other crowd favorites played by the Marching Pirates are also covered by the pep band. Talented musicians with lots of energy and a love of playing music make The Sixth Man Band impres- sive and exciting to watch. "The musicianship is high and the atmosphere is professional Holt said. "We are by far the best band in the CAA Director Donny Allen is proud of the band and recognizes: their skill and the contribution they make to the games. "My job is easy.

SIRVIC1S Among many intramural programs that will be offered at the ECU recreational center and its outdoor facilities, basketball will be this spring's highlight and is expected to start soon. The Department of Recreational Services will be spon- soring a 5-on-5 Basketball league which will be open to all students, faculty and staff at ECU. Leagues will be offered for men's, women's and Co-Rec teams. Information regarding playing rules, participation policies, league guidelines and entry procedures will be covered during the first meeting today, Jan. 19 in Mendenhall, room 244 at 5 p.m. Registration for league play will be held tomorrow, Jan. 20 at the Student Rec Center, room 128 between 10 a.m. and 3 Jo p.m. Unaffiliated players who are interested in playing are encour- aged to attend for placement on a team. Teams will play a round- robin format which will be fol- lowed by a single elimination tour- nament to determine All-Campus champions. Gold (advanced skill), Purple (intermediate), and Blue (recreational) leagues will be avail- able provided that there is suffi- cient interest. Leagues will also be offered to accommodate varying segments of the university population and will include Men's Independent, Fraternity, Residence Hall, Sorority, Women's Independent and Co-Rec. A variety of playing days and times are available for convenience and assorted schedul- ing needs. The regular season will begin on the week of Jan. 25; games will be played in the evenings at Christenbury Gym and the Student Recreation Center. Prior to the opening of the regu- lar season a limited number of teams will be able to participate in the Basketball Preview. This is a preliminary jamboree-type event which provides league teams the chance to play several opponents in shortened games in preparation for the season. Registration for the Preview will be on a first-come, first-serve basis while openings last and will be conducted along with the regular season sign-up tomor- row at the Rec Center. There is no cost for students and Student Recreation Center member facultystaff. Non-SRC member facultystaff will have the option either to purchase a daily guest pass for entry into the facility or may purchase a 'Limited Pass' for $10.00 which will cover facility usage costs for the entire Basketball season.

"We have increased our offen- sive power and added depth in all positions said Kee. "Our new players have added some serious pop in the lineup Softball team members have been working hard off the field as well. Extra hours in the gym and being dedicated to constantly improving as a team has created a stronger squad both physically and mentally.

"We want to constantly improve every game and every week A Big South Tournament Championship and the chance to play in the NCAA tournament are two major goals team members are shooting for this year. Pirate Softball players will have to face and defeat tough competition from conference rivals Coastal Carolina and Liberty in order to meet the high expecta- tions that they have set for them- selves. "The only thing I want at the end of May, when it's all over, is for ECU to finally get to play in some NCAA games said Polonius. "If we don't do it this year, I don't get the chance to try again . Polonius, who was picked first to the recent professional women Softball draft, hopes that Pirate fans will come support the team and watch these gifted athletes play.

Many club sport teams offered in spring Lacrosse still recruiting to fulfill expectations Jim Phelps senior writer If you are getting tired of playing frisbee with your dog, Student Recreational Services offers a num- ber of club teams that will use your talent. Club sports are extramural orga- nizations that are student-run and get financial support from Rec Services to compete against other university teams. "For example, the Rugby men's club will compete against UNC- Chapcl Hill, N.C. State and all kinds of different club teams from different universities said Todd King, marketing director for Student Rec Center. "The other clubs, like the kayaking club, are just a bunch of people that enjoy the sport and go on trips together The clubs are always recruiting new members throughout the semester. "The best way to get involved in a club is to come to Recreational Services and speak with Gray Hodges and he'll be able to give you the information you need and who to contact to get involved in the club King said. The club teams at ECU tend to compete really well. "Our ultimate frisbee team is always ranked nationally in the top five and the rugby team does really well in the inter- collegiate leagues, and lacrosse does very well also King said. Every team wants to be suc- cessful in their competitions. The lacrosse team has high hopes for the upcoming sea- son that begins in about three to four weeks when they will also begin their practicing. They will continue to recruit for the next three to four weeks. "We've always done really good said Ben Kley, president of the team.

Individual accomplishment to form strong team Golfers show ambitions for national recognition Tracy Hairr assistant sports editor By the end of 1998, the ECU golf team had closed its fall season and laid a solid foundation for a spring season full of anticipated change and success. "It was by far the best fall I've �een since I've been here said Kevin Williams, head coach. "Our stroke average was extremely low and our national ranking was the highest it's ever been This national scale is based on scor- ing averages and cur- rently the Pirates are ranked 19th in the district There is a light at the end of the tunnel, however Williams said. "Around the end of February a committee is sched- Marc Miller to lead the 1999 team. PHOTO COURTESY BY SID uled to vote on whether or not con fere nee champions can receive automat- ic admission into the NCAA tour- nament" If this follows through, the Pirates' scores will be consid- ered on a much broader scale that includes the nation's best teams, among whom ECU certainly seems com- patible after considering the accomplishments of key players. Freshmen Frank Adams and M. Chad Webb proved their excep- tional skills despite being new to the team last year. They each played 23 total tournaments, nine of which were 71 or below. "This was really good Williams said. "In effect they were shooting under par nine times, and they came out strong for us Other top players with the team's lowest averages were senior Scott Campbell and junior Marc MHJpr whose scores were 73.2 and Tennis teams bring new talents Kalajo, Morgan to lead'through season Todd Tallmadce senior writer While the women's tennis team will have to rely on one senior and a lot of new talent for the upcom- ing season, the men's team hopes to take its good fall tournament results and hard practice into a challenging 1999 tennis season. The men's team is led by seniors Roope Kalajo and Kenny Kirby. Kalajo is coming off of a good showing at the 1998 ITA Region II Indoor Championships. He advanced to the second round of the tournament before being eliminated. Kirby and sophomore Michael Huez will carry their impressive fall play into the spring matches. "We had some great practices in the fall said junior Stephen Siebenbrunner. "The team ran more this season and this helped us as the fall season went on. It should help us in the spring season too The women's team lost its number one player, Anne Svae, due to graduation. After several big wins this fall, the team will look to the lone senior Catherine Morgan to assume the leadership role. "Catherine stepped up and played at a level higher than she ever had before said Brian Jackson, assistant coach. Freshmen Meredith Spears, Andrea Tcrrill and Mary Elaine Knox had a strong showing this past fall, and will hopefully add to their list of wins while they also will need to share their experi- ences with some new arrivals. Hrushida Kamhre, Stacey Sasser and Maria Carolina Torres will begin playing this season, intro- ducing their talents and encourag- ing change throughout the team; head coach Tom Morris is opti- mistic. "We as a team ended well in the fall and are looking forward to the spring Morris said. "We made the improvements we need- ed to have a great showing in the CAA this season The men's and women's teams will start practice Jan. 18.
