ISSUE 35 www.tec.ecu.edu New minor offered Program covers works by great authors Peter Lenk news writer ECU is announcing a new minor called Great Books which will be offered through the department of Multi-Disciplinary Studies. Great Books will be composed of eight classes (24 hours) with at least nine hours above 2999 levels. Students participating in the minor will put together a course list of eight classes from three to five different departments of their choice. Great books courses will deal mainly with the great writers of each field. The course selection will not be exclusively English ori- ented and it will deal with any great writer that has changed his or her field. Included in the courses are great writers in English, politi- cal science, foreign languages to physics and chemistry. The avail- ability of course topics will depend on the demand and participation of students. Classes that are currently offered include Chaucer, Plato, Russian Prose of the Nineteenth Century, and Western Political Thought: Moses to Montesquieu.

However, start- ing next year with the total renova- tion of Jones Residence Hall and The Galley, changes on College Hill will be difficult to ignore. Last Thursday the ECU Board of Trustees met and voted on a plan to make College Hill into what Facilities Planning Director Bruce Flye calls "a much more habitable place Other projects besides the Jones Hall renovation include a new look for Tyler Residence Hall, replacing Belk Residence Hall with a new student center, possibly a new residence hall at the bottom of College Hill, and a walkway over the intersec- tion at College Hill Drive and 10th Street.

Parking stickers are available to ECU students, vendors and staff according to class and need, at prices ranging from $42 to $288. However, some students say the prices are so exorbitant, that they would use counterfeit stickers themselves if they knew they wouldn't get caught. "It's ridiculous how you pay all this money for a parking sticker and aren't guaranteed a space said GwynGarber, ECU freshman. "If I could get away with it, I would duplicate the stickers According to ECU Parking and Traffic Services, these students try to duplicate university stickers because they do not want to pay the fee. "Students wonder if they can get away with it said Johnnie Eastwood, external operations man- ager at Parking and Traffic Services. "There is money to be made A student living in Aycock Hall was caught in December using a counterfeit resident sticker. ECU police said the student had dupli- cated the permit using the comput- er program Microsoft Publisher. Eastwood said the dimensions on the duplicate sticker looked almost exactly like that of the resi- dent sticker issued by Traffic- Services. The giveaway, he said, was the rough edges of the "R" and the plastic that was laminated over it.

But as any student rushing to class can tell you, the campus also has many miles of dirt paths. ECU has about 30 dirt paths, created by foot traffic looking for the quickest route between two ing the same direction over time. The largest dirt path is in front of Mendenhall Student Center. This path is more than 50 feet long and 6 feet wide as it stretches towards west campus. Students from four residence halls use this path to get to and from the student center. Another 6 foot wide path begins just east of the Student Publications Building and extends past the library into the mall. Across from the commuter lot on College Hill is a path used by stu- dents from five dormitories on College Hill, plus commuting stu- dents walking to and from their automobiles. Students Ryan Harrington and Ray Collins make use of one of ECU'S 30 dirt paths. points. Doug Caldwell, Grounds Manager at ECU for 31 years, says that dirt paths have been here as long as he can remember.

The class focused on the Japanese education system and was taught by Yumiko Ono, a guest professor from Naruto University of Education in Japan. A grant from the Global Foundation for Scholarship and Research financed Ono's visit to ECU. According to Donald Spence, Associate Director of International Affairs, this grant opportunity had to be taken advantage of quickly, and it was seen as a first effort in connecting this university with Japanese coun- terparts. "We are working on connecting the University's Teacher Education Program with our Public Schools' Partnership Program at the elemen- tary, middle school, and high school levels said Spence, who is also a professor at ECU's school of educa- tion for kids at the elementary and middle school level. "Our final goal is very pioneer, it's to connect uni- versities here with universities in Japan. We want to be able to have students, teachers, and faculty exchange with our Japanese partner schools and go into research on both, the vertical and the horizontal levels Horizontal level research wbuld allow students and faculty to con- duct research in Japan as well as in the United States. By adding the vertical level, this would enable universities in both countries to Yumiko Ono, guest professor from Japan.

Officials said much of the work to be done on College Hill is cos- metic but is still seen as vitally important. "A campus needs to have a cer- tain amount of continuity said Williams. "Belk and some of the other dorms up there are sort of stick out like red-headed stepchil- drea If we can renovate them and get them to blend in a little more it would make us very proud Though the first of these pro- jects is scheduled to begin next year, the work will be completed incrementally. "We haven't really applied all of these projects to a time line yet because the need for them depends on the growth of the university said Flye. Besides the drastic changes to College Hill, the Board also approved plans for renovations on other parts of campus. These plans include expansion and renovation of the Student Health Center, a new dining hall on West Campus and the completion of the renova- tion of Jarvis Residence Hall. ECU also plans to buy The Daily Reflector building on Cotanche Street to house CIS. "We want to get CIS its own building so we can use Austin for faculty and class space said Flye. As of now, CIS is split up between Austin and the old Jones cafeteria. "Overall, the Board wants to make ECU an attractive and func- tional campus said Williams.

According to Spence, they are expecting to use those proposals to apply for grants to Fullbright Scholarships to go to Japan. In addi- tion to Ono's lecturing, they are gaining practical experience with the help of ECU's Partnership School Project at various local schools by assisting Japanese-teach- ing professors. "We do have five the violator is fined. Depending on the violation, additional punish- ment and fines may be enforced. Eastwood suspects there are more duplicate stickers on campus. The problems the university has had with illegal stickers has been in the last six years, Eastwood said. "Anytime it happens it's a prob- lem because it's breaking the law Eastwood said. "It leads to other things These cases have made officers more aware of these stickers. They have started looking for things like color difference and the quality of the sticker. Starting in the fall, the price of parking stickers will increase.

"I was very skeptical, but it works really Spence said. According to Spence, the lecture given last week was taped and handed out to the ECU students when they came back from spring break. The week before, the Wilmington students were provid- ed with a tape after they returned from their break. "Looking down the road, we are actually hoping that eventually we are able to tie our classes across our campuses with schools in Japan. We want to be able to have our students here being able to observe Japanese teachers in Japan while we are half a day apart Japanese public schools are not as wired as the U.S. counterparts, and translation software will also be needed in order to extend the Interactive TV model beyond N.C. boundaries, but the technological progresses were exiting and promis- ing, said Spence.

However, traditional tests and quizzes will be up to the discretion of the teacher. Dr. Edmund Wall, one of the professors who will be teaching courses in the new minor said that the purpose of the minor is to f study a discipline by reading the great writers of each field.

Or worse, a glass bottle? Do you ever think about what hap- pens to things you throw into the trash can? If you don't maybe it's time to start. On campus alone, students throw away tons of trash, all day, every day. And once it's trash, it can't be reused. Trash is carted off to huge landfills where it slowly decomposes, releasing toxic fumes into the air and harmful chemical mixtures into surrounding soil and water. Many of the items that fester in landfills could have been recycled with minimal time and effort, if we had simply put those things into appropriate recycling bins. For a campus our size, student have fewer opportunities to recycle than we should. If we want to hunt for a paper or glass receptacle, we can find them in GCB or Brewstcr, and can bins are locat- ed in each dorm. Still, it's always easier to throw away our trash, rather than carry it around until we find the proper receptacle. But if we really care about changing the environment, we'll find a way to recycle, even if it incon- veniences us a bit. We really have no choice. We need to do all we can to cut back on garbage dumping, because garbage doesn't just go away. Years, sometimes centuries, are re(iiired for the decomposition of garbage items, and until garbage decomposes, more landfills need to be constructed to hold all the new garbage. So collect your recyclablcs in a plastic bag or a cardboard box (both recyclable) until you're ready j to take them to a recycling bin or truck. Resist the urge to toss everything into a convenient trash ; can and take time to familiarize yourself with nearby recycling bins. If every ECU student rccy- ; cled just one pound of garbage a week, we'd be conserving H tons of garbage a week. OPINION Columnist OPINION Columnist Phillip Gilfus Thinking of registration tactics Marvelie Sullivan Clinton obsessed with NATO poweij Clinton, et al have a wild fascination with the power of NATO and the UN and have turned them into European policemen instead of wo rid- U.Sled NATO forces are now attempting to settle the fight in Kosovo between the Christian Serbs and Moslem Albanians. A man named Slobodan Milosevic leads the Serbs. Milosevic is a psy- chopath in the truest sense of the word. I lis psychopathic nature is probably the result of his abusive childhood and both of his parents having committed suicide. Essentially, the use of logic and rea- son is not really an option when dealing with him. The Serbs arc- intent on reclaiming their land and meanwhile are slaughtering masses of Kosovar Albanians in order to accomplish their goal. This ordeal is needed a tragedy, but it isn't so much what it is, moreover what the ordeal repre- sents. The escalation in Kosovo is representative of what the U.S.� under the Clinton administration� is greatly lacking: a coherent and cohesive foreign policy along with the respect that such a policy would command. The United States has its hand on everything and its grip on nothing. If Milosevic respected the U.S he would not remain so staunchly and ludicrously defiant. If the Albanians had faith in the U.S they would be welcoming our protection instead of reluctantly accepting it. The present administra- tion and in particular Hill Clinton is to blame for the weak image that the U.S. conveys abroad. Even when Clinton's own, like Secretary of State Madeline Albright, make attempts of being more assertive and coherent, someone within the White I louse flip-flops and ruins it. Clinton, et al have a wild fascination with the power of NATO and the UN and have turned them into virtual European policemen instead of worldwide peacekeeping organizations. The post-cold war era in the foreign pol- icy sense is admittedly trickier though. The black and white has now faded into a gray, and irrita- tions, like Kosovo, are too small to commit to a full-scale war but are definitely too serious to completely ignore. So, Clinton's decisions are tougher but that is no excuse for his inconsistencies throughout his presidency. Now, the U.S. is experi- encing foreign policy trauma because of the Clinton "shot inihe dark" approach. China, a couiitry that Clinton embraced in 1992, has stolen our most precious military information and intelligence according to the CIA. All of the IMF funds Clinton begged to hi)ve sent to Russia never ended up stim- ulating the Russian cconorliy. Instead, the money has beien deposited in the bank accountsjof the Russian "elite" and consequen- tially, the Russian economy is te(ri- ble and laden with rapidly growrjig crime rates. Basically, the Russians took the money and ran like it Was their job. Iraq is always a threat, and the Middle East could break out any time. The instability of Eastern Europe does not seem to be waning as a new bout of ethnic cleansing takes place all the time. All of this is not to say thflt we should be the world's savior. In fact, we shouldn't be at all, but if the United States is going to com- mit to a nation or a cause, then the job should be done correctly and completely.

Life on T .& I NOTlc ALWAYS i ABOUT Pi Of THE I CLASS pi I know it has been a week since winter break (go ahead, look at the calendar, that was a winter break), but let me say welcome back all ;anyway. Let the countdown for Easter Break begin, or is it spring vacation? I don't remember what the politically correct term is. But as we all know, this is a special week that contains a very impor- tant day for millions of people on this earth: there's a full moon on Wednesday (mmmsacri!icious). With that comment that will get me excommunicated, I'd like to take one moment to say something to the wonderful, attractive people who make and edit this fine publi- cation: MY NAME IS PHILLIP GILFUS! Imagine my look of chagrin ( when I opened the March 11 issue of TEC to find my name on the editorial page twice (yea me!), but it was misspelled both times! And in two different ways! 1 tell ya, if that dumptruck full of money did- n't come to my dorm at the end of every month, I'd quit right now. And while I'm on the subject, a certain opinion columnist spelled the epitome of Southern vocabu- lary as "ya'll I'll just assume it was a typo and not start to question his southernity (for the record, it's y'all). In case some of you arc inebriat- ed from trying to recapture spring break, I'd just like to remind every- one that registration for classes is this week. That's right, time to go through that pile of papers next to your bed, ignore the odors, and try to remember who is your advisor and what their phone number is. Yes, it's time to tally up your hours and see if you should take Biology 4220 or Basket Weaving 1020 (I think it's an honors course for the second summer session). ECU offers many registering services for students. We can sign up for our classes over the phone or through the internet. But is this such a good idea? Don't tell me you haven't ever left a message like this on an answering machine: um, oh, hey. Yeah, urn, this is (fill in name) and I was just won- dering if you would you like to, GET OFF ME, CAT (Sounds of meowing, hissing and kicking) So, anywayoh man, I just ripped my pants. Er, I mean, um, uhclick" And they expect college stu- dents to plan a whole semester on their cell phone? One mispressed number and you've suddenly changed your major. As for on-line registration, we have to be very careful. After filling out your social security number and PIN number approximately 42 times, you must then trust the information superhighway (invent- LETF HER ed single-handedly by Vice President Gore) to sign you up for fifteen hours of exercise, theater, and English courses and not make you a schedule consisting of seven- teen hours of geology classes (not that there's anything wrong with that). I know many students are wor- ried about how many hours they have and if they will graduate on time. Now I think it is very impor- tant to keep a good G.P.A. and to graduate in four-ish years, but c'mon, what is everyone complain- ing about? You love ECU and ya know it. So you might have to spend an extra couple thousand dollars to stay another semester. Big deal. You would probably end up wasting the money on frivolous stuff anyway, like a down payment for a house or an engagement ring. Of course now I'm going to get lynched by the faculty for encour- aging students not to graduate and congratulated by the administra- tion for making the kids spend more money. Heh, heh, I'm kid- ding, of course (nervous laughter). Don't forget Ryan Dogg's pick up line contest! A free CD for that lucky winner! E-mail your entries to murdnch623@hotmail.com. Now if you'll excuse me, I have to go slip the copy editors $20 so they'll "remember" my name. Student frustrated with alternate lifestyles After reading the article entitled "B-GLAD Celebrates Annual Pride Week which appeared in the March 25 edition of The East Carolinian, I must admit that I am getting sick and tired of having the acceptance of "alternative lifestyles" pushed on me. In the article Garner suggests that those of us who do not condone such sin- ful lifestyles are narrow-minded. As a Christian I have seen sin in my own life, turned from sin, and have been forgiven of the sins I have committed. With the accep- tance of Jesus Christ as my Lord and Savior my eyes have been opened to what sin really is. It is anything that goes against the will of God, and thus separates us from God. So why must I accept that which I know is wrong? Instead of being closed-minded, I, and the other Christians on campus, have actually seen the big picture and know that such lifestyles are wrong. We are not trying to be judgmental, we are just following the word of God. So please do not attempt to categorize us as closed- minded. Above all, Jesus Christ taught that we should love the Lord our God with all our heart and that we should also love other people (Matt 22:37-39). But this certainly should not be used as a justifica- tion for homosexuality as it so often is. Jesus used the Greek word "agape" for love in the above verse. Only Christians can express agape, which is a "fruit of the spir- it" (Gal 5:22) received when a per- son is born again. Agape comes from God and can only result in Godly things. Agape and sin can- not exist together at the same time. And since homosexuality is detestable to the Lord (Lev 18:22), love expressed in a homosexual relationship is not the love that Christ spoke of. Those of us who are Christians need to stand firm in our beliefs. We should treat everyone with the love Christ showed us, but have the integrity not to allow others to persuade us to compromise our beliefs. And remember, wear your shorts or khakis on "Blue Jeans Day" to show that you do not con- done such sinful or "alternative" lifestyles.

You may also have to work to make money to reim- burse your parents or Uncle Sam. Why not do both? There are so many opportunities to expand your education this summer while mak- ing money through summer intern- ships. "There are hundreds of summer internships available said Mary Cauley, director of Cooperative Education. "They are not difficult to find, students just need to come- to the co-op office Some internships are paid while you can receive class credit for oth- ers. Payment depends on the employer. Upon graduation, employers usually look for someone with experience, in turn raising the question of "How do I get a job without experience and how do I get experience without a job?" Students should become involved with some work experience that is directly related to their major. With so many opportunities to get expe- rience, students should have no problem finding internships and work experience. "I think summer internships are great said Chrissy Miller, junior.

H Street signs create lawsuits Locals speak out on negative street names HEDGESVILLE, W.Va. (AP)� Berkeley County's decision to change "Boy Scout Road" to "Big F Park Road" has landed county officials in court, and now another band of residents is debating whether to file a lawsuit of its own. A group of about 100 residents calling themselves "Berkeley County Citizens For Common Sense 911" said they will meet later this week to decide whether to challenge the renaming of 61 streets in Marrinsburg and 425 county roads. The new names, due to take effect April 1, are part of a county wide reorganization of the 911 emergency response system. The "address conversion plan" adopted by the county is an attempt to elim- inate duplicate road names that could cause confusion for 911 responders. Paul D. Oliver and Carolyn S. Oliver, the first to file a lawsuit, contend that the county's choice of "Big F Park Road" has a "negative sexual connotation" that will drive down the value of their $205,000 home. "Your address defines who you are said Paul Oliver. "Most peo- ple take 'Big !�" to mean something else Oliver said he does not object to enhanced 911, but thinks the coun- ty needs to come up with a better way to upgrade the system. The Olivers' lawsuit will be heard March 24. In their suit, they argue that the Berkeley County Commission lacks the authority to change county road names, and they want a judge to reverse the name changes or order the commis- sion to pay damages. With an April 1 implementation deadline looming, the county com- mission cannot afford further delays and arguments about name changes, said Berkeley County Commission President D. Wayne Dunham. "It's so late in the game Dunham said. "If we have to go back and change streets it will take forever "Someone had to take the initia- tive to provide better emergency services. The bottom line is we are doing this to save lies Dunham said. The Olivers' lawsuit could interrupt the entire project and efforts to upgrade other systems statewide, he said. You don't remember leaving your car window down, but it appears that you did. As you walk closer, you see shattered glass all aside your car. It's dark and you are afraid. What do you do? Students face this problem on campus. This year, ECU Police have put extra effort into preventing car theft and vandalism. "Due to the abundance of last year's thefts and vandalism, we have instituted a surveillance pro- gramsaid Captain W.F. Knight of the ECU Police Department. Parking and Traffic Services has made efforts to lessen the number of vandalism and theft by joining the ECU police in the surveillance program. In this new program Parking and Traffic Services are instructed to report any suspicious activities to the police. Since the enforcement of the surveillance program, the amount of car thefts have decreased to about one car a month. "We can't eliminate the incidents, but we can reduce them Knight said. ECU freshman Marisa Kelly experienced bad luck as her car was broken into three times this semes- ter. "The first time I was completely shocked, but after the third time I just said, 'again? Kelly said. "The first two times I reported it to the Greenville police, but I didn't report it the third time since noth- ing came out of the first two reports According to Knight, most of the incidents that occur involve alcohol and take place in the Reede Street parking lots. This is subsequential to the crowd, both students and non-students, that departs from the downtown area late at night. A few of the thefts that occurred during the daylight hours this past semester were hang tag thefts. Only about 10 percent of the break-ins are targeted thefts or van- dalism. The other 90 percent usual- 'We ran 7 eliminate the inci- dents, but we ran redure them Captain W.F. Knight ECU Police Deparimem ly involve alcohol or are random offenses. "My car was parked out- side of White Hall and when I went to get it, the passenger side view mirror was gone said Kiersten Hansen, junior. "I would have thought that something like this could happen off campus, not somewhere well lit Although the campus police and Parking and Traffic are trying to do what they can with this dilemma, students are still wary about the sit- uation. "I don't have my car on campus because I do not want to risk get- ting it broken into said Tricia Bell, junior. "Besides everything is within walking distance on cam- pus If you find yourself to be a vic- tim of a break-in or vandalism, the ECU Police encourage you to uti- lize the emergency phone located all over campus. An officer will then arrive to gather information about you and your car. They will then investigate the crime scene, look: ing for.any evidence that may be helpful. Police reports are then compared in thefts and vandalism and analyzed in order to locate a possible pattern in the crimes. A police report will be readily avail- able to you within two or three days to file with your insurance compa- ny. Gina Lanvermeier, a freshman at ECU, was awoke one morning by a phone call from the Police Department informing her that they had caught someone attempt- ing to steal her license plate. "They (the police did a very good job Lanvermeier said, "but did they have to call at 5 a.m.?" More renovations are being made to the Reede Street parking lots to ensure the safety of parked vehicles. Over the spring breaK, more lights and cameras will be added to the parking lots and will also be paved. This particular reno- vation will decrease the availability ofrocks that are used as weapons to shatter windshields. To prevent a break-in, you should always lock your doors. The old saying is that if they want some- thing in your car, they are going to get it whether the doors are locked or not. Also, never leave valuable items visibly in sight. This will only increase temptation level of for the perpetrator. Take all valuables out of your vehicle; if possible remove the face off of your or cassette play- ers. ; Location of where you park also plays a key role in auto theft.

Employment can range from YWCA day camp or other summer day camp counselors, assisting stu- dents become some of the best entertainers and teachers, respec- tively. "Summer camps usually have our biggest demand for students Cauley said. Students interested in getting an internship over the summer should attend an informational Co-op seminar to learn more about it, complete an application, prepare a resume and make an appointment with the Co-op coordinator assigned to their major. Most deadlines for internships are around mid-March, so those seeking employment should try to apply as soon as possible. Applications for government posi- tions are due even earlier in mid- January. As for what types of students should apply for internship posi- tions, the Co-op Department works with any students with a minimum 2.0G.P.A Co-op also has a good relation- ship with regional businesses. A student who is seeking an intern- ship will be able to find out the exact requirements for their job and what their potential employer is looking for by talking with Co-op Department. "We work a semester ahead with students. Those looking for a spring position should come to us in the beginning of the fall semes- ter, for example Cauley said. To locate a list of summer internships related to their major, students should also visit the Co-op department's web site at www.ecu.educoophome.htm. There you can perform a search specific to the particular region, city and major that you wish to work in.

It is based on the British school-sys- tem and focuses on the whole per- son, not just academics said Vilma Joseph, lecturer in the Department of English. The fee for the program $1500, plus instructional costs. Students can expect to pay $2000 total, which does not include spending money. After completing the courses abroad, students will receive transfer credit hours. "Those who go should expect to study in class, learn from the envi- ronment, and take advantage of opportunities McGowan said. Participants in the Belize trip will be housed with English-speaking Belizean families. Included in the program is a day-trip to a Mayan village near Belize City. On the weekends, a student could snorkel, take a trip to the Cayes (bay islands), investigate the rain forests or take a trip to Guatemala. An optional seven-day tour will be available at an additional cost. It will include a stay in a Mayan vil- lage and visits to villages populat- ed by people of African descent "Students should feel free to explore the area and visit the Mayan ruins and take a look at the history of the region. It is all easi- ly accessible Joseph said. Belize itself contains a tropical cli- mate, and the wet season occurs from July to September. It is a Central American country that borders Guatemala and Mexico. However, the country compares more to the Caribbean islands than Central America in its culture and society. "Everyone who has been in the program was very positive about it. Students applying for the pro- gram should come with an open mind and be flexible McGowan said.

The Pirate football team had their first official practice of the spring on March 25. The energy level was high around the Pirate camp and players eagerly took the field for their first practice. The team practice began at 3 p.m. and continued throughout the after- noon until about 6:30 p.m. ECU football is allotted 15 practices dur- ing the spring and head coach Steve Logan is spreading out these sessions over the period of one month. The practices will run throughout the remainder of March and wrap up on April 24. The sea- son of spring is often associated with new beginnings and according to Logan that is the theme of this year's Pirate squad. "The atmosphere is very upbeat and the players have adopted a theme of new beginnings Logan said. "They are a very refreshing and upbeat group of guys to work with The Pirates welcome new defensive coordinator Tim Rose to their camp this year. Much of this first practice was devoted to Rose and the new defensive alignment for ECU. Rose comes to ECU by way of Boston College most recent- ly. The Pirates hope this new defense and their strong passing game will help to improve on their 6-5 (i-i) record from last season. "We focused on the installation of our new defensive scheme Logan said. "We are also going to spend lots of time on our passing game. Today was mostly installa- tion and being the first day the exe- cution was lacking, but you have to start somewhere The Pirate football camp has been busy during the off-season with players hitting the weight- room and the excitement of the new signees for fall. However, for some ECU players the off-season has been a little too lengthy. According to David Garrard, start- ing quarterback for the Pirates, he was very happy to be back on the field.

W a k c Forest will be coming off of their first three game sweep over C I e m s o n since 1952. John Palmieri should be a man the Pirates need to look out for as he is listed with one of the highest batting aver- ages in the nation at .444 and also listed among the best in the country with 29 doubles. Wake Forest's overall team ERA is also listed as one of the foremost in the nation at 3.97. The last time the Pirates went against the Demon Deacons they took the victory 3-2 at Wake Forest.

K ECU senior Scott Campbell does not consider himself a flashy player or a super-star athlete, but this Pirate golfer is lighting up the course and giving his team a bright future. The spring of 1999 has been the most successful season for Campbell since joining the ECU golf team as a freshman in 1996. Campbell's most impressive feat of the spring was at the Pepsi Intercollegiate tournament (March 19-20) in Greenville when he crushed the competition and the ECU school record for the lowest score in a tournament while captur- ing his first individual title. Campbell's statistics at ECU speak for themselves and prove why he has had such an impact on this year's talented Pirate team. He finished the '99 fall season with a stroke average of 73.5 and was first on the team with a putting average of 29.86. After playing in only two events his freshman and sopho- more years, Campbell caught fire his junior year. During this time he participated in six of the eight spring events and carded a team best 219 at the CAA Championship to tie for fourth place overall. Most would assume an athlete would dedicate hours of practice time to accomplish these impressive marks, but Campbell sees things a little differently from most people. "I'm not much on practicing like a lot of guys are Campbell said. "I'm not the type of guy to go out on the range and beat balls for hours. "I get fired up for tournaments, but not to practice. After a long day at school, just playing with the same old guys, it's hard to get fired up for that When the tournaments do come, (lampbell has no trouble get- ting enthusiastic.

As long as Campbell does not let his practice round scores replace his tourna- and he has really come on strong in the last year Golf is a tradition in the Campbell family. Campbell's father is an avid golfer who shared the game with his son at a very young age. Campbell played both base- ball and golf during his youth, but dropped baseball at around the age of 15 to pursue his golf career full- time. His dedication as a youngster led him to great success during his years at Lee Davis High School in his hometown of Mechanisville, Va.

"It's hard for me to go out there and play for no reason, but once the I get in the tourna- ment I bear down These practice round scores would seem to put his teammates in a panic, but according to Campbell his fellow golfers trust that he will improve and show his true colors when the competition really heats up. Shane Robinson, a junior on the Pirate golf team, believes that Campbell has the ability to play his best whenever he has to and the pressure is high. "He Campbell knows when to turn it up Robinson said. "It's like a switch he can turn on and his game goes from average to great.

ECU fell behind in the fourth inning due to errors. The FAU lead advanced to 3-1. Freshman Eva Herron lead the Pirates in batting going 2-for-3.

Erik Bakich and Schnabel each, went 3-4 with a pair of RBis on the day and James Molinari finished 2-2 with two RBIs two walks and four runs.

"It seems like forever since we have been out here and we needed to work out the rust and get ready for the spring Defensive coordinator Rose was not the only individual facing a new job on the field during this first practice. With the graduation of many senior Pirate starters, some team members are having to step up and take new and bigger roles on this year's team. According to sophomore nose guard Mbayo Ahmadu, the first practice allowed coaches to observe how the players will react to their new positions and to the new defense. "Being in a starting position is new to me and I want to do my best personally Ahmadu said. "I also want to help out the younger guys and give them the knowledge I gained over the past three years Pirate all-star linebacker Jeff Kerr will be returning for his senior year this fall. Kerr believes these first spring practices are key to the Pirate team, but that every practice should be given the same emphasis. "You have to practice every prac- tice like it's your last Kerr said. "If you slack on one, then you get nothing out of it. I expect us to win, not to lose. I expect a lot out of us and look forward to big things After the excitement of the spring practices and the heat of summer camp, the '99 Pirate foot- ball team faces one of the toughest schedules in the history of the pro- gram. This fall's home schedule is especially impressive, including the opener against the Blue Devils of Duke on September 11. The most anticipated game of the fall is against the Wolfpack of N.C. State who will be making their first appearance on the Pirates home turf. "This is the toughest schedule since I have been here Logan said. "We are really going to have to step it up, but I believe we can win The Pirates vill hold their first official scrimmage on March 31. The spring practices will continue throughout March and April with ECU's popular Pirate Pigskin Pig- out Scrimmage set for April 17. c.ntimit: frwn Ml � since I was 8 years old, and he was more excited when I won the Pepsi tournament than I was Head golf coach Kevin Williams has watched Campbell's game grow and mature. Williams describes Campbell as a fighter and a scrapper who has improved greatly because of the tough com- petition here at ECU. As Campbell completes his final sea- son at ECU this spring, Williams says he will always remember Campbell as a smart player who approached the game a lot like his coach does. "He understands what the name of the game is Williams said. "It doesn't matter how it looks, just get it done. Scott does- n't hesitate to do what he has to do to get the job done Campbell still has many goals for this season and his career here at ECU, but he often looks toward the future. After graduation, Campbell hopes to enter and play successfully in the N.C. and U.S. Amateur tournaments but shows no interest in the professional ranks of the PGA. "Playing where you have to- make money I think would bum me out Campbell said. "I'd rather get a decent job and just play for fun Nothing to do it fur apartments. Payers Club Cm Help!
