ECU employees required to take sexual
harassment and discrimination training
Hiring process
changes slightly
YAZID FINN
STAFF WRITER
New and returning employ-
ees at ECU have been greeted
with a recent addition to the
hiring process.
ECU Ts Office of Equal
Opportunity and Equity (EOE)
has instated a program with
the purpose of reaching its
staff and workforce more easily
than with programs previously
used..
The program is known
as New Media Learning, and
through two of its modules helps
to educate employees in the fields
of preventing sexual harassment
and employment discrimination.
oWe wanted to take the best
practices and technology and
form a tool to help educate what
it is like to work in diverse work
places, � said Taffye Clayton,
program director at the Office
of EOE. oNew Media is a step
in the right direction. �
Previously, ECU held classes
to educate employees. about
sexual harassment and employ-
ment discrimination.
These classes were always
full and taught by a single
member of the EOE Ts staff.
oThrough New Media, we
can reach out to all employees
including students employed at
ECU, whichis over 5,000, � said
Lakesha Alston, program spe-
cialist for the Office of EOE.
oNow we can offer some-
thing online that you can take
conveniently and at your lei-
sure. �

Alleged noose found in the basement of Belk Hall
Incident is under
investigation
KIMBERLY BELLAMY
NEWS EDITOR
An alleged noose was found
in the basement of Belk Hall on
September 19, which led to an
investigation of the incident on
September 23.
Todd Johnson, interim vice
provost of student affairs and
associate chancellor of campus
living and dining, answered
questions about the investigation
during the Black Student Union
(BSU) meeting on Wednesday
at 5:30 p.m.
The police responded to the
Sincident around 2 p.m. on the day
othat the incident was reported.
The object was not in the same
ocondition as reported upon the
nationwide are fellow schools in
the UNC system.
oWe began researching with
New Media approximately two
years ago, as part of the UNC
system, � Alston said.
oWe later received a con-
tract for New Media Learning
in March. �
The niodules went into effect
Aug. 1, requiring all existing
employees to complete the train-
ing by Dec. 31.
A list of those who do not
complete the training will be
filed with the Office of EOE,
which will then in turn complete
a follow-up on these employ-
ees.

arrival of the police.
oThe evidence was not intact
when the police arrived, � John-
son said.
We believe it to been hang-
ing in the basement for at least
an hour, according to Johnson.
To help aid the administra-
tion and the ECU Police Depart-
ment in uncovering whether or
not the claim is true, video foot-
age and student interviews are
being used as evidence.
Some students questioned
why anyone has yet to be identi-
fied as the person who hung the
object if cameras monitor activ-
ity in the basement of Belk.
oThere are certain angles
that won't allow everything to
be captured, � Johnson said.
Completion of reviewing the
videotapes has not been reached,
according to Johnson.
Other things are.contributing
to the wrap up of the investigation.
When asked if the supposed
noose is in the custody of the
police department, Johnson said,
oWe have some physical evidence. �
Some students seem disap-
pointed that the administration
didn Tt make an effort to inform
the student body earlier.
oAs an individual, I Tm a little
disappointed but knowing the
administration, I understand
that they were trying to confirm
all the facts, � said Patrick Dixon,
BSU president.
The investigators of the inci-
dent seem to have good reasons
for not exposing this informa-
tion to the public.
oDuring the diligent investi-
gation we want to be as through

Run for Respiration
set for Saturday
Respiratory health
awareness promoted
ADELINE TRENTO
STAFF WRITER
The Brody School of Med-
icine Ts Division of Pulmonary
and Critical Care will host its
second annual Run for Respi-
ration on October 6.
The Run for Respiration,
which aims to educate the
community about respiratory
health, will begin at 8:30 a.m.
in front of Omega Sports on
Evans Street.
The event will offer the
community a chance to par-
ticipate in either a one-mile fun
walk or an 8K run through the
Lynndale neighborhood.
oWe thought that this event
would be a great way to get the
community involved in walking
and running, said Alice Hyatt,
clinical nurse specialist for
Pulmonary and Critical Care
_Medicine. oWe want to make
the community aware of lung
diseases and also raise money
for local research on respira-
tory health to be done. �
_All of the money raised at
the Run for Respiration will go
directly to the Medical Founda-
tion and the research will be
done at ECU's pulmonary labs.
"Itsreally a neat event because
a lot of times you raise money for
things and it goes elsewhere, so
you never get to see what is done
with the funds, T Hyatt said.
oThis event is different, every
bit of money raised at the run will
stay here in Greenville �
__ This year the Run for Res-
piration hopes to raise more
than $10,000 through spon-
sors from local businesses,
pharmaceutical companies,
home health companies, indi-
viduals and entry fees.
oWe want to build on last
year Ts tremendous success, �

BSU members asked
questions that sparked con-
versation about what would
be done to remedy the situa-
tion if someone is identified

oAs in any incident
involving a student at the
university, it will be taken
through our student judicial
system, � Johnson said.
If the person is identi-
fied as a non-student, the
punishment will be handled
by the police, according to
Johnson.
The investigation is
expected to conclude by the
end of the week. The inves-
tigation is about 80 percent
done, according to Johnson.
A report will be issued to
the campus community on all
the findings of the investiga-
tion as well as a follow-up

BSU to share the results.

oIT first heard about it

heard of several other inci-
dents about nooses but they
all were proven to be not
true, � Dixon said.
le first found out
about the incident last
Sunday, � said Nakita Rob-
inson, chair of the special
events committee of BSU.
The discussion also raised
questions about the issue of
safety for certain groups that
might be targeted on campus
with actions similar to the
ones suspected.
Johnson addressed the
question by assuring the
group that safety is one
of the top priorities when
protecting a certain group,
a specific individual or the
whole ECU community.
Concerns about racial
tension on campus were
addressed. The first step
in dealing with that issue
is to have dialogue to see if
everyone sees it in the same
perspective, according to
Johnson.
oOne of the things we
want to focus on is race rela-
tions. Race is what Ts hitting us
right now, � Dixon said.
A discussion is being
planned by BSU to have
a meeting that invites all
different races to share
their thoughts about race
relations, according to
Dixon.
Diversity became a
major topic of discussion at
the meeting. This issue was
addressed by members of
BSU and Virginia Hardy,
associate dean for diversity
in counseling.
A suggestion was made by
Kyndall Peele, BSU member,
to make it a requirement for
students to take ethnic stud-
ies classes to educate them
on other cultures.
Johnson confirmed that
an incentive such as the one
suggested is being planned.
Hardy mentioned two

about what we need to do to

The Climate Survey was
one of the first steps that the
university took to acquire
more information about
diversity on. campus but
only 11 percent of the stu-
dent body participated in the
survey, according to Johnson.
The second event will be

RESPIRATION continued from Al
130 participants and the state
record for an 8K time was set
by a local runner. In addition to
participants, we of course want
sponsors to contribute funds to
help support our local efforts in
education and research for respi-
ratory health, � Kavuru said.
Hyatt and Kavuru encour-
age students to participate in
this year Ts Run for Respiration
by taking part in the one-mile
fun walk or the 8K run. Students
that do not wish to run or walk
can still volunteer at the event
by handing out refreshments or
being course marshals.
oUltimately, we want this to
grow and establish itself as an
annual event that people look
forward to, � Kavuru said.
oWe want it to be a source of
funds to develop creative ideas
into respiratory health and
to actively engage people in a
spirit of volunteerism. �
The Run for Respiration
will offer participants a chance
to learn about their own respi-
ratory health as well.
At the event, people will be
able to receive free lung func-
tion testing, which usually costs
over $100 at a doctor Ts office.
Participants will also have
the opportunity to speak with
pharmaceutical companies
about multiple diseases and
the different kinds of medicines
that are available to help with
these problems.
oWe take breathing for
granted. This is an event geared
to draw attention locally to
healthy breathing, breathing dis-
orders and how much we have to
do. The Run is a visible symbol
of a larger initiative to develop a
partnership between health care
providers and the local commu-
nity, � Kavuru said.
Students that wish to par-
ticipate in the Run for Respira-
tion can register before the race
at 7:30 a.m. at Omega Sports.
The cost is $20 for the one-
mile fun walk and $25 for the 8K
run. The cost includes a t-shirt,
snacks, drinks and goody bags.

ECU geography students compete
at NC World Geography Quiz Bowl
Students receive
second place title
KIMBERLY BELLAMY
NEWS EDITOR
A team of geography under-
graduate majors and gradu-
ate students competed in the
annual N.C. World Geography
Quiz Bowl on Sept. 28.
The group of ECU students
earned second place in the com-
petition against UNC Greens-
boro, North Carolina Central
University, UNC Charlotte,
UNC Pembroke and Appala-
chian State University, which
earned the first place title.
A member of the ECU team
earned an individual victory;
Travas Hunter was the second
highest scorer in the completion.
Hunter will represent ECU
on the N.C. team for the south-
east competition that will be
held in November.
Each team was asked ques-
tions relating to world geog-
raphy and the two teams with
the best records competed in
the championship round for
the win.
To prepare for the event, stu-
dents attempted to train them-
selves with practice competitions
before the actual quiz bowl.
oThey had a number of
study sessions and we had some
mock rounds, � said Scott Wade,
faculty coach of the team.
Team players studied a
variety of different geography
subjects to prepare for the ques-
tions at the quiz bowl.
oWe met several times at
and away from school and
basically studied geography
trivia, the world almanac and
other geography resources, �
said Sol Wuensch, team cap-
tain.
The selection process
for the team to represent
ECU at the quiz bowl was
based on the interest shown
by students to participate.
oWe typically give notice to
professors and they get the word
out in their classes, � Wade said.
Scouting for team mem-
bers didn Tt require much
effort in some cases because
of returning team mem-
bers from previous years.
Wuensch is being forced
to retire because he has met
the limit of competitions that
students are allowed to com-
pete in.
The quiz bowl regulations
state that students are not
allowed to compete after their
fourth year of competitions,
according to Wade.
Being a part of the com-
petition offers the students a
number of opportunities to
expand on their knowledge of
geography and network with
fellow geography majors and
faculty members from other
schools.
oThe questions themselves
are interesting. A lot of them
are written in such a way that
you learn something from
them (the questions), � Wade
said.
The event didn Tt require
a large amount of money and
it was funded by the Depart-
ment of Geography, according
to Wade.
The team players seemed
thrilled that they got the
opportunity to represent ECU
and finish in such a high rank-
ing.
oIt Ts a good feeling coming
home with a plaque, which is a
tribute to the geography depart-
ment at ECU, who has some of
the greatest professors and
students ever, � Wuensch said.
The students that partici-
pated in the quiz bowl were
Ryan Convington, Matt Cecil,
Jessica Silva, Terri Moreau,
Jessie Messina, Stephen San-
chagrin, Wuensch and Hunter.

Maritime studies students
in Hawaii for a sunken ship |
Students receive credit hours for
research trip
ALYCIA WENDT
STAFF WRITER
A group of ECU maritime studies faculty and
students, participating in the field school program
of nautical archaeology, are in Hawaii for a month
studying the sunken ship, Ivanhoe.
The students who are participating in this
group can earn six credit hours for being in
Hawaii for a month by doing dives and trying to
solve the mystery of the Ivanhoe.
The Ivanhoe was built in Scotland in 1868.
This ship was used as an English emigrant ship,
carrying passengers to Australia.
Later, the ship became a trade vessel and trav-
eled other places as well.
In December of 1915, the ship sunk on the
coast of Kauai; no one knows exactly what brought
the ship down. The cargo the ship was carrying
is also a mystery.
There was documentation of the ship Ts earlier
life but there was not much of a record of its last
ten years.
The group in Hawaii is working to figure out
all the unanswered questions about the ship Ts life
before it crashed and sunk in Kauai.
oMy expectations are that the students will
fine-tune their skills in recording underwater
sites and also some that are above water, � said
Larry Babits, maritime studies professor.
This field school project required a $40,000
grant that Nathan Richards, ECU maritime stud-
ies professor and project leader, received from
ECU Ts research development grant program.
The students are all graduate students in
maritime studies and have a concentration in
underwater archaeology.
According to Babits, the students had a very
thorough process to endure in order to be selected
as a member of the group.
First, the students had to become scientific
divers. They also had to attend a field school in the
summer and attend required classroom courses.
oEach of the steps has requirements that must

; Students and conduct reseach to help recover information about sunken ship, Ivanhoe.
be met. You have to pass the courses, pass the
scientific diver training and then make it through
the summer field school. It is not for just anyone, �
Babits said.
Participating in this project along with Babits
is: Nathan Richards Ph.D., Bradley Rodgers Ph.D.,
Calvin Mires, Steve Sellers, Mike Dermody, Kevin
Wells, Joe Hoyt, Mellissa Ashmore, Nadine Kopp,
Jeremy Eamick, Annie Tock, Matt De Felice, Kelly
Gleason Ph.D., Hans Van Tilburg Ph.D., Tane
. Casserley and Amy Leuchtmann.:
oThe primary investigator, Nathan Richards,
will obtain a wealth of data about iron hulled
ships that he can work into his study of how they
were abandoned in both the Pacific and Atlantic
Oceans, � Babits said.
The group left for Hawaii on Sept. 4. All of
their gear was shipped months in advance to the
island. The other pieces of equipment were split
up and taken on the plane as carry-on items for
the group members.
When the group arrived in Hawaii, they went
to the State Library of Hawaii to look through
local newspapers that were not available to them
in North Carolina.
This gave the group more knowledge on their
assignment.
oAs always, research leads to more research
and these leads will send us again on the hunt for
clues to the widespread influence of the shipwreck
upon the many people and places interwoven into
the story of its life, loss and legacy, T Richards said
in his online blog for the study. .
The maritime studies program at ECU is
housed in the Eller House in Greenville. They
offer a master Ts degree in maritime history and
nautical archaeology.
The students are involved in classroom lec-
tures and hands-on field projects; they also get
experience in the field by doing internships.
oWhen I first found out about this study
experience, I was in shock that ECU opens this
opportunity to students to study off campus and
not only at other colleges or universities, � said
sophomore Rich Shafer.

O'Reilly was
fired?
Maybe in a parallel universe
YAZID FINN
OPINION WRITER
What is the difference between a shock
Jock known as Don Imus and right-wing conser-
vative named Bill O TReilly? Some may still be
wondering after Bill Ts comments on his own radio
program only weeks ago. For those are out of
the loop, Bill O TReilly apparently discovered that
African Americans can act civilized and restrain
themselves long enough to enjoy a sit-down meal.
During a dinner with Al Sharpton at Harlem Ts
Slyvia Ts, O TReilly remarked later on the air how
flabbergasted he was during the evening.
O'Reilly was awestruck at the fact that
even while the restaurant goers were predomi-
nantly black, everyone was so well behaved! Why
Bill said that he could have just as well been sitting
in an Italian restaurant in an all-white suburb T
because not a single patron was shouting oM-F-er,
I want more iced tea. T Heaven forbid Sharpton and
O TReilly went to an Eamonns that evening or I
could see the following day Ts headlines: Sharpton
smears Irish Catholics as drunks.
So where is the inquisition that a few may
be expecting and why are not hordes of protesters
calling for Bill Ts resignation? Is it because ESPN
was not covering the remarks that this story went
unheard? Is it because two million people tune into
the O TReilly Factor while only a couple thousand
listened to Imus that advertisers are not pulling
out? Is it just because a story like this has already
been done that no one cares?
Well maybe Fox is just skipping to the
conclusion of matters. With Imus getting job offers
left and right, maybe Fox does not want to lose
one of their highest rated news commentators. So
maybe in a way I am glad no one is causing flak
over the matter. Sure Anderson Cooper is fun, and
Glenn Beck says something dumb now and again,
but O TReilly is Fox News. He could easily be run
24 hours a day on his own station and still attract
more viewers than MSNBC and CNN combined
for simply shouting at his guests.
So carry on, East Carolina. You keep up
the good fight on lowering the drinking age for
your clubbing and I will keep enjoying my favorite
news at 8.

Sleeping with
the enemy?
Awareness is key
SARAH CAMPBELL
EDITOR-IN-CHIEF
A Ts a women Ts studies minor the past several
years have allowed me to take a number of courses
related directly to women and society. A theme that
seems to reoccur in almost every class is the topic of
domestic violence. Since hearing about the victims
of domestic violence, I have been unable to silence
the thoughts that run through my mind. I can still
hear their voices describing how the person they
loved most in the world beat them relentlessly.
The menacing presence of domestic violence has
become so prevalent in our society that many no
longer view it as a substantial threat.
The Center for Disease Control considers
domestic violence an epidemic in the United States.
Every nine seconds a women is beaten, an increase
from 12 seconds just a few short years ago. One
has to wonder why this epidemic is so rampant
in a modernized society and what is being done
to eliminate it. Domestic violence is manifesting
faster than anyone can comprehend the seriousness
of the matter.
According to the National Coalition Against
Domestic Violence, domestic violence is defined
by the following definition:
oDomestic violence is the willful intimida-
tion, assault, battery, sexual assault or other
abusive behavior perpetrated by an intimate
partner against another. It is an epidemic affect-
ing Americans in all communities, regardless of
age, economic status, race, religion, nationality or
education background. �
In an effort to demonstrate just how prominent
domestic violence is, I will shed light on some star-
tling statistics. In her lifetime one in four women -
will be a victim of domestic violence. In North
Carolina last year, 78 murders occurred due to
domestic violence. The cost of domestic violence
is $67 billion a year worldwide. 46 percent of men
who beat their wives also beat their children.
The Family Violence Center located in
Greenville provides local students and community
members with a safe haven in the event that they
may need to escape from intimate abuse. The center
will help relocate Victims to safe places and provide
them with the financial support they need until
they are stable again.
The domestic violence epidemic continues
to plague the lives of thousands each year. In an
effort to eliminate it, people are encouraged to
contact members of Congress and urge them to
support domestic violence funding through the
Violence Against Women Act. Volunteering time
and compassion to victims is another great way to
a proactive solution. Awareness is also the number
one way to decrease the threat of domestic violence.
Through awareness, empathy is gained; in the face
of empathy, no one can deny the voice of a victim.

FEATURES EDITOR
The other night I went to meet my fiancé and
a couple of friends at Olive Garden. I got to the
restaurant a couple of minutes before 10 p.m.; my
fiancé and friends were already in the restaurant.
When I went up to the door, an Olive Garden
employee was sitting outside talking on her cell
phone. I went to the door to open it and discovered
it was locked.
_ When [asked her if she could let me in, she said
the doors were locked for the night and that not
even she was allowed back in. I called my fiancé
in the restaurant and he quickly informed the man-
ager that I was outside waiting to be let in.
He told my fiancé that there was absolutely no
way that I could be let in the restaurant. My fiancé
told the manager that I wasn Tt going to order food,
I was just going to sit with the group to talk. Still,
I was forbidden to enter the Olive Garden.
Of course I understood since I used to work
at a restaurant, but when an employee walked
out and back into the restaurant soon after they
barred my entrance, I became a little skeptical
about their policy.
. This experience got me thinking about all the
times that I have received less than satisfactory
service from waiters and waitresses (and manag-
ers) in Greenville.
Although I Tm not the richest person in the
world, I like to tip people who serve me well
because I know what it Ts like to work for tips. IfI
receive good service, I tip well.
Still, I have gone to restaurants all over the
city and seen the disappointed faces of waiters
and waitresses when they realized I was a college
student.
Most of the time people think of stereotyping
and prejudice in terms of race, color or ethnicity,
but what about the stereotypes placed on college
students? s
I have personally been labeled as loud, poor,
obnoxious, thieving, disrespectful, a drunk...and
I have felt the effects of these generalities. My
question is, why?
Are theré really so many college students who
don Tt tip, aren Tt respectful and so obnoxious that
we all deserve sub-par treatment?
I find it hard to believe that most college stu-
dents don Tt know what it feels like to work for tips.
And I find it even harder to believe that when col-
lege students go out to eat to a sit-down restaurant
they are not aware that a tip is required.
If they have enough money to go sit down to
eat, then they have enough money to tip. -
Still, I have gone to the same restaurant with
my parents (and had the same waiter/waitress) and
received wonderful treatment and service, whilé
when I visited the restaurant before I had to wait
15 minutes for a drink refill.
I Tm not saying that all waiters or waitresses
in Greenville treat college students differently.
because they are college students, but I have had
some pretty terrible experiences here in good ole
G-Vegas. T
I can understand the mindset of restaurant
servers who have been stiffed one or more times by.
college students, but not all of us do that.
So the question remains: did the manager at
Olive Garden lie to me when he said I was not
allowed into the restaurant? Or did he see my oEast
Carolina Girls � T-shirt and immediately label me
as a non-tipping college student?
I can guarantee that a lot of waiters and wait-
resses in Greenville have missed out on some good
money because they have treated me poorly.
What's so ironic about this whole stereotyping
thing is that many restaurant servers are college
students themselves and still insist on the bad
treatment of their peers. s
I can also say that they have missed out on
tips because of their attitudes towards college
students.
For now, I'll keep that extra money I would usé
to tip with to myself.

intentionally or unintentionally,
involving physical discomfort,
embarrassment, harassment or
ridicule. It Ts not only what you

in which you are made to do it

also be a major concern in other
areas such as athletic teams and
the military.
oPhi Beta Sigma realizes that
hazing is problem, � Philson said.
oWe realize the physical and psy-
chological impact on individuals,
and hazing gives all Greeks a
bad reputation. � Philson said
that anti-hazing promotion
protects Greek organizations in
both their image and the safety
of their members.
Greek organizations on
ECU Ts campus have faced hazing
allegations before, and have
sustained suspension of privi-
leges anywhere from one to
four years.
oWe have faced challenges
with hazing allegations, � said
Ion Outerbridge, assistant
dean of students in the Divi-
sion of Student Life, who has
been a member of Phi Beta
Sigma since 1994. oBut we Tve
had no major hazing and have
never had to shut down [any
organizations]. We Tve been
fortunate we haven Tt had any
severe cases, but have had some
close calls. Starting in 2001:
Hazing victims, like these ones, can suffer devastating physical harm from hazing acts done in fraternities/sororities, the military or elsewhere.
we have really cracked down. �
Outterbridge stated that
during these allegations the
organizations work very closely
with national officials for a thor-
ough investigation, and that the
university and national officials
can impose serious consequences
on an individual or the whole
fraternity if found guilty. He also
admitted that hazing still goes
on, but there have been cases of
false accusations as well.
oIndividuals in the com-
munity who may merely dislike
Greeks have sent accusations
through email, but have never
come back to meet and discuss, �
Outterbridge said.
Phi Beta Sigma has a lengthy
process of induction, laid out in
a 50-page manual, as a solution
to hazing. This intake process
begins with an application,
classroom sessions which cover
the creeds and basics of the
organization; it also includes
rollout shows, which introduce
new members to the school and
the community. The purpose of
this process is to show strength
of character and the willing-

The Student Recreation

grams like the climbing wall,
adventure trips (including
canoeing and kayaking), the
indoor and outdoor pool, club
sports and the ever-popular
intramural sports.
The weight room seems to

& however, good health can be a

is offered through the Rec
ECU Ts personal training program offered at the Rec Center gives students a more st

Center, can also be a solution.
The most popular reasons
students hire a-personal trainer
are to learn to use the gym
equipment, learn to utilize the
machines to meet their fitness
goal and to establish a daily or
weekly routine to reach a target
weight or tone.
Some use personal trainers
to kick off a new fitness regime
to burn calories, fat, to lose
weight or to tone.
Still other students use
personal training to organize a
lifting schedule and to learn the
best ways to build muscle.

than some can on their own.
To begin this process, an
interested student needs to visit
the main office of the Rec center
and fill out a Personal Training
Request Form. The form asks
for appointment times that best
fits with the student Ts schedule,
but more importantly, the rea-
sons why the student is inquir-
ing about a personal trainer.
These reasons can range from
obesity to lack of motivation to
family history of heart disease,
and the answer to this question
gives the trainer a better idea of
how to personalize a student Ts
workout.
Also on the form are health
questions, so that the trainer
does not risk giving a student a
workout that would harm their
body. In addition a student can
even choose which personal
trainer they would like to work
with.
The personal training
program at ECU is a one-
hour session where a student
spends one-on-one time with
an experienced trainer. The
Rec also offers a two-on-one
option, where a pair of friends
with similar fitness goals can
begin their workout experience
together. This offer begins with
an eight-session minimum.
For those experienced
exercisers only looking for a
quick motivator, the personal
trainers offer oExpress Train-
ing. � This also begins with
an eight-session package, and
these workouts are 30-minute
stimulants for those trying
to: get back into the habit of
working out.
The training program also
offers two osmart � packages
to ignite motivation for those
needing .a reason to work out.
oSmart Start � is the first pack-
age, and includes a fitness
assessment and one personal
training session. The assess-
ment alone provides abundant
motivation because it provides
results for body composi-
tion, grip strength, muscular
strength and endurance, car-
diovascular endurance and flex-
ibility. This package is offered
for $35.
The oSmartStart Plus � is
the second option offered. For
only $45, the personal trainers
offer the fitness assessment, one
training session and a dietary
workup.
One session is $25; two are $45
and four sessions are only $85.
If a student wants Just the
fitness assessment mentioned
with the oSmart � packages, it is
$25 and can provide enormous
motivation.

The UCF secondary fea-
tures four returning starters;
all of which are juniors who
should provide a stiff test for
the Pirates offense. [he Knights
defensive line is no pushover
either as opponent's average 150
rushing yards per game.
oDefensively, their line is one
of their strengths because their
linebackers in the middle have
played a lot of football, said
Holtz. oAdditionally their sec-
ondary is their main strength. �
The Pirates will have to
play better across the board
defensively if they hope to stop
the Knights on offense. In the
red zone, UCE is a pertect 17-
for-17 with 15 touchdowns.
While the main focus of the
Knights attack will be the
before mentioned Kevin Smith,
UCF has a talented playmaker
in senior quarterback Kyle
Israel, who has thrown for
over 500 yards on the season
with three touchdowns and an
interception. The Knights also
contain a receiving threat in
freshmen wide receiver Kamar
Aiken, whom has two touch-
downs op 10 catches with 215
receiving yards this year.
Holtz knows that with all
the defensive injuries and over-
all inexperience of certain posi-
tions, using different schemes
will give the Pirates a better
advantage over UCF and future
Opponents. :
oIt is something we will def-
initely do, said Holtz. oWhen
you look at all our injuries, it
has been more from necessity
than scheme.
o1 always say if your fourth
receiver is better than your
tight end, you end up playing
four-wide. Likewise, if your
fourth linebacker is better than
your fourth defensive lineman,
you need to play more of the
three-down set. �
The Pirates have survived
and advanced through the first
five games of their brutal sched-
ule and getting back to.500 is
top priority for ECU if they
hope to stay in the conference
race and in the picture for z
postseason bowl.
oWithout a doubt it Ts
extremely important [ get-
ting back to 500], especially
against a conference foe like
UCE, whom we've traded wins
and losses with them the last
two years, said Kass. oWe
really feel like if they come in
here, they might be the favorite,
but if we knock them off then
were front runners in the con-
_ ference right away.
And with that the Pirates
have shed new hope on a season
that seemed lost just two week-
ends ago.

ECU swim team
dives into new season
Pirates will lean on
stellar upperclassmen
KATHERINE HARRY
STAFF WRITER
With the swimming season
quickly approaching, Head Coach
Rick Kobe had all positive things
to say about the upcoming year.
If the men Ts team has a win-
ning record this year, which
they are anticipating, it will be
their 26 consecutive year with
a winning record; this would set
the all-time school record for
any athletic program. They are
currently tied with the baseball
team, which has also had 25 con-Q |
secutive winning seasons.
Kobe is very enthusiastic
about the depth and talent of this
year Ts team.
oThe [men Ts] freshman class
was one of the largest and most
talented we Tve ever brought
in here at East Carolina, � said
Kobe. oThey're all extremely
talented and these guys will.
have an immediate impact on the
team. Unlike other sports where
men to mature...in swimming
basically you're as good as your
freshmen. �
On the women Ts side the
team is not as large as the men Ts,
but is equally as talented.
oWe're looking for all of
these kids to have an immedi-
ate and concrete impact on the
team, � said Kobe.
Not only does the team have
a strong incoming freshman
class but they also have great
leadership.
Both the men and women Ts
teams have tri-captains. For
the men Ts team the captains are
seniors Geoff Hansfield, Charlie
McCanless, and Ryan Hunt. On
the women Ts side the captains
are E.C. Moore, Kim Brewer and "
Austine Enderle.
oWe have many other seniors
that will all be counted on to
help with the leader aspect of
the program, � Kobe said. oThis

year especially we have some
great upper classmen, not just
talent wise, but kids that have
been through the program and
realize exactly what it Ts about to
swim here. �
The team Ts schedule includes
meets with non-conference
teams such as Duke, N.C. State
_and North Carolina.
you kind of wait for your fresh-"~
The team will also attend
the Nike Cup, which is an
invitational at Chapel Hill in
November and the C-USA
Championship in Houston, Tex.
in February.
The men Ts and the women Ts
team both finished third a
season ago at the Conference
Championship.
The team will have their
Purple-Gold meet Thursday
evening. This is essentially a
meet between the members of
ECU Ts swim team. It will have
a big impact on who travels for
the ECU team since its first:
meet is away.
oThis will give us an indi-
cation of who is going to: make
that first trip or not. We Tve
got over 60 kids on the team, �
said Kobe.
The team will host North
Carolina at the Minges Aquatic
Center this Friday in a diving
invitational. The meet used to

be larger and the team is hoping
the event will grow.
The team is very goal ori-
ented and sets high standards
for themselves. Their goals
every year are to win the confer-
ence championships, go unde-
feated and have an average GPA
of 3.0.
oWe've never done it, � Kobe
said of the team Ts goals. oWe've
done two out of three often,
but never put all three of them
together. It Ts a huge task; it Ts
what we go for every year. �
The team always strives to
do well at the Nike Cup every
year and qualify members of the
team for the NCAA 2A meet.
There are also a handful
of team members that have a
chance a making the Olympic
trial cuts. The trials are next
summer in Nebraska.
The ECU swim team has
a lot to look forward to for the
upcoming season.
oIt Ts a big year for swim-
ming, � said. Kobe. oIf anyone is
interested, if they like swim-
ming, come watch because we
basically pack the place. We
don Tt charge admissions, but we
basically sell out the facility. �
