THE EAST CAROLINIAN Volume 78 Number 8 Re THURSDAY. September 13, 2001 CE Students, staff mourn ECU Transit is adding four new buses to its fleet. New transit buses arrive Enhance transportation, aid in enrollment growth ANGELA HARNE NEWS EDITOR Two of the four transit buses to aid in transportation services arrived last week. According to Robert White, gen- eral manager of Transit Services, the 43-passenger buses are replacing four of the buses that have been in use since the mid-80s. The replacement is long over- due, said White. Transit Advisor Scott Alford said the new buses are definitely an improvement of the current ones. They are like nothing we have owned before, said Alford. Senior Thomas Jernigan, a bus driver agreed. They are a step up from what we had, said Jernigan. It was definitely time for a replacement, but we are still far from where we need to be. Jernigan said Transit Services should be on a ten-year bus replace- ment system. Having buses from 1983, and just now replacing them is crazy, but at least it™s a starting point, he said. The buses came from the Blue Bird Company. In the past, ECU purchased buses from the Thomas Built Buses com- pany. According to Wood Davidson, assistant transit manager, Blue Bird made the best offer. Davidson said Transit Services developed a speck, which is a package describing the features of the bus. We put the package needs out and waited for a bid, said Davidson. Blue Bird had the lowest. According to Alford, the buses began serving the students Monday. We have to put on the ECU graphics, add extra radio equipment see BUS page A2 student transit reacts to ridership More buses added to routes, faster turnover DENNIS MITCHELL ASSISTANT NEWS EDITOR Student transit passengers increase as students choose bus trans- portation over their own vehicles. More students are riding the bus, said Scott Alford, student transit adviser. : According to Alford, in order to cope with the influx of students riding the bus, Student Transit added a fourth bus to the commuter shuttle route one week into the semester. We are accessing the possibility of adding a fifth bus to the commuter shuttle, said Alford. According to Alford, Transit Ser- vices is also seeing an increase in the number of students on the off- increase campus routes. We do not have concrete num- bers for this semester because it is early, he said. Alford said last year, the Student Transit System had an estimated 760,000 passengers on its regular routes. That™s about 5,000 passengers a day, Alford said. According to Robert White, stu- dent transit manager, about 45 student drivers are employed to handle the number of passengers. A student driver has the hardest job on campus, said White. Tt is very difficult to have to deal with 5,000 students a day. According to White, dealing with traffic can also be a problem. Student driver Matt O™Kelly agreed. Although this life is a little see TRANSIT page A2 victims Wright auditorium fills for memorial service ANGELA HARNE NEWS EDITOR Flocks of students, faculty and staff filled the Wright auditorium to lift their hearts and offer a prayer to the victims of the nation™s terrorist attack. The 1,510-seat auditorium filled quickly, while about 300 students, staff and faculty lined the walls, sat in the lobby and stood outside listening to a panel of speakers shed light on the situation. The memorial service opened with the display of the colors (Ameri- can flag) by the Color Guard and the singing of the National Anthem. Reverend Robert Clyde of the Baptist Student Union took the podium and led the audience in prayer. Tears ran down some faces, while other sniffled trying to restrain their emotions. Sadie Cox, president of the Stu- dent Government Association, spoke Strength and conditioning center scheduled New complex to unite coliseum, stadium ANGELA HARNE NEWS EDITOR The Strength and Conditioning Center between Minges Coliseum and Dowdy-Ficklen stadium is approaching the last months of construction. According to Bruce Flye, director of facility planning, the $11 million project is expected to be completed by October. The center will be one of the largest conditioning centers in the country, said Flye. According to Athletic Director Mike Hamrick, the center will con- nect Dowdy-Ficklen stadium to Minges Coliseum from the end zone. It will join basketball and foot- to open next ball together as one, Hamrick said, in a previous interview. The downstairs area of the center will contain a 25,000-sq. ft. condi- tioning center. A banquet hall, serving area and meeting rooms will fill the upstairs. Flye said the meeting rooms will be for recruits and their families. junior Doug White, a football player, said the new center will also help attract recruits for the team. Recruits usually like to see the weight room, the facilities, the prac- tice field, said White. More recruits is better for the team, so I™m happy with the Strength and Conditioning center because it will help make our sports program even more appealing than it is, said White. Aside from recruits, the center will aid in training the current athletes. Junior Dominique Hatcher, a see STRENGTH page A2 month of terrorist attack to the student body and said, this is a sad day ... a somber day. Today is worse than yesterday, because today reality is. sinking in, said Cox. We are beginning to understand that this is not a nightmare. Cox said the students grew-up a lot over the past days. We have learned that history does not just happen in books, she said. Cox said she does have any inspi- rational comment. Tam as confused and hurt as you, she said. I do know that we must hold onto each other. We need hope and confidence. We are students, yes ... and the next genera- tion. History is on our side and we won't give that up. David Batts, chair of the staff forum, said the university sends their thoughts and prayers to Americans. This has brought shock to the campus, said Batts. We need to seek ways to help New York and Virginia. see MOURN page A3 Students file into Wright for the memorial service yesterday.

Counseling is available for students on the campus, and those wishing to join the relief efforts can donate blood locally. Rev. Holly Ulmer of the United Campus Ministry worked with Rev. Elizabeth Platz of the Lutheran Min- istry in organizing an interfaith mourning service was held yesterday at 1 p.m. on McKeldin Mail. The staff of the Counseling Center in Shoemaker Hall is available for help from 9 a.m. to 9 p.m., said Vivian Boyd, director. The center has been working with the campus chaplains network and Hillel to provide help for those in need, Boyd said. Those who wish to help victims of the tragedy were urged to donate blood; the attack has left hospitals lacking blood and overflowing with injured people. Nonetheless, some New CLEP Offered in Technology aids in learning, studies GINGER JOHNSON STAFF WRITER Students may sit in class knowing all the answers, and only attend because of the attendance policy, but that may change with new testing options. The testing center is offering students a chance to progress at a faster speed by taking the College Level Examination Program (CLEP) on the computer. According to the Information for Candidates pamphlets, the students students wishing to give blood have been unable to find American Red Cross Centers willing to accept their donations. We've driven all over for an hour or so, trying to find a Red Cross and donation center, said Laura Nolan, a sophomore letters and sciences major. Because of the massive influx of donors all Red Cross public donor centers will only accept donations by appointment, Red Cross volunteers said. Dr. Margaret Bridwell, University Health Center director, said the health center could not offer help because it lacks the trained personnel and specialized equipment needed for a blood drive, Bridwell said. However, Bridwell said, the health center and the Red Cross are trying to put together a blood drive for next week. Red Cross officials said organizing a campus blood drive any sooner is not possible, but that victims of the attacks will still need testing testing benefit from the test by reducing the number of courses needed to complete a college degree, and for all ages to complete their degrees more quickly. Students will also be able to receive instant test scores rather than waiting for the mail. Valerie Glaso of the Research, Assessment and Testing department said, We have more flexibility with the student. It is easier to schedule a test and we offer more tests. The College Board, which also administers the SAT, sponsors the CELUI SIP. The board produces the CLEP study guides that are available in many bookstores and libraries, as well blood in the weeks to come. It would be important for stu- dents to know that there™s going to be an ongoing need, Bridweil said. She said she plans to send out a mass e-mail about the blood drive once a time and date are set. Volunteers with the Red Cross announced there will be blood drives Thursday from 9 a.m. to 2 p.m. at the Sunnyside Carver Center in Beltsville, on Friday from 2 p.m. to 8 p.m. at the Greenbelt Recreation Center in Greenbelt and Sept. 19 at the Moose College Park Lodge from 1 p.m. to 8 p.m. at 3700 Metzerott Road.

It is important that we come together as a community and reach out to each other, said Muse. Sep- tember 11 will be a dark day for the US, its citizens and friends. He said one could never predict that the United States weuld be a victim of such a monstrous act. Muse said the university must remember three factors: including the beauty and sanity of human life, the fact that we are free peoples and retaliation is needed. T don™t believe that any attack can diminish our spirit or freedom, Muse said. We must not coward against the cowards. Jordan Whichard, member of the ECU Board of Trustees, agreed. American stands on democracy, we say, worship and believe as we see fit, said Whichard. We must go about our freedom. You [students] must continue to experience and explore your liberties. Despite Whichard™s advice, stu- dents continue to deal with the shock of Tuesday™s events.

It can start here at ECU and have a domino effect, said Crane. Most think that America is invincible. This is a wake up call. We need to appreciate life .. life is precious. The memorial service concluded with the singing of America the Beautiful. THE ECU STUDENT UNION CULTURAL AWARENESS COMMITTEE PRESENTS THE MYSTICAL ARTS OF TIBET SACRED Music SACRED DANCE FOR WORLD HEALING THURSDAY, SEPTEMBER 13, 2001 8:00 PM WRIGHT AUDITORIUM ˜The Mystical Arts of Tibet tours, featuring the famed multiphonic singers of Drepung Loseling Monastery, have taken the world by storm. Endorsed by His Holiness the Dalai Lama as a means of promoting world peace and healing through sacred performing art, they have performed in many of America's greatest theaters and music halls. Ancient societies throughout the world conceived that ritual performance of sacred music and dance at auspicious times establishes communication with the higher powers of good and brings about healing on environmental, social and personal levels. The Mystical Arts of Tibet tour has three basic purposes: to make a contribution to world healing and peace movement through sacred art; to generate a greater awareness of the endangered Tibetan civilization; and to raise support for the refugee community in India. In a spirit of healing, compassion, and unity, the ECU Student Union Cultural Awareness Committee is providing FREE Admission to this event! NOTE: Seating will be a first-come, first-served basis. The doors will open at 7:00pm. If you already have purchased a ticket to this program and desire a refund, please present your tickets to the Central Ticket Office in Mendenhall; or you may consider your ticket purchase a gift to the community to help offset some of the costs associated with providing this wonderful program at a time when it has never been needed more.

One couldn't help notice a chilling pride sweep- ing through the room, uniting us all as American citizens. Leaders of different faiths joined together, guiding us in the quest to prevail. Such a tragic day, yet this memorial service served as a genuine gesture of recuperation and healing, lightening up spirits ... if only for a few moments. For those who were forced to stay outside, faculty and staff members immediately gathered a few religious figures on the steps of Wright Auditorium to console those students as well. Yes, the events of late are horrific, but the outpouring of support from this community is truly inspiring.

In this article | will be focusing some attention on helping the trainee set some attainable goals for their training program. These goals will help in adding some specificity to how, when and where to achieve the desired training effects. At the initiation of a good train- ing program there are some impor- tant questions that must be asked by the trainee. The answers to said questions should help to clarify what is going to be accomplished and how. First and foremost among these questions would be, what is the purpose of the training? The answer to this question might take the form of: training for weight loss, strength, size, endurance, stress relief, etc. In any event there needs to be a clear focus on what is going to be the end result of training, in order to allow a clear path to be determined towards that goal. For instance, if the focus is on. endurance, strength, stress relief, athletic performance or other non- aesthetic goals, then the next step is to decide which areas of the gym will be most beneficial (we will explore this in the next article). However, if the focus is on aesthetic characteristics such as: losing body fat, gaining muscular hypertrophy (size), or balancing out the body™s proportionality (top vs. bottom, etc.), then a process needs to be determined to allow you to see what you want when you look in the mirror. This process should include critiquing your current body™s form to determine what your body™s skel- etal structure and metabolism will allow you to realistically attain. Begin the process of attaining your desired look by carefully critiqu- ing your physique. Take note of it™s overall proportionality. Look at whether your body holds more mass RYAN CARRELL YOGA INSTRUCTOR Warrior Pose BRAD FOUST PERSONAL TRAINER above or below the waist or in one area versus another. Take note of what areas your body is storing the highest amounts of fat and in what areas it is most muscular. This can be done by simply observing your body in a mirror, or by participating in a fitness assessment to identify the amount of fat your body stores in certain areas, and your circumferences. Once this is done some time should be taken to focus attention on your body™s metabolism and skeletal struc- ture in order to understand it™s specific structural dynamics and metabolic capacities. First, start out by figuring out what type of metabolism you have. A relatively unscientific way to do this is to take note of how quickly you gain or loose weight, and to what degree your body tends to store fat weight. Simply put, those with fast metabolisms tend to range from average height to tall, with smaller (circumference) bones, and don™t gain either muscular weight or fat weight easily. Those persons on the other extreme see FITNESS page A8 Mind/Body Benefits: The Warrior is challenging and therefore cultivates determination, courage and discipline.

Don™t be fooled ... fitness experts say that the most beneficial exercise varies from one person to another. The Student Recreation Center (SRC) offers many different types of machines that display the exact number of calories burned. Accord- ing to Sam Combs, assistant director of fitness, the statistics displayed by machines aren™t always accurate. The machine has no idea of the metabolic makeup of the person, Combs said. He added that the more infor- mation the machine asks, such as weight, age or height, the more accurate it probably is. Working off calories should not be the only concern when exercising. A healthy lifestyle should include not Cardio training, such as running on only the physical aspect of exercise, by burning calories. but also the mental and inspira- tional.

Managing Money saving tips to increase your budget ELIZABETH BRUCE STAFF WRITER SHEENA LEE STAFF WRITER Credit card debt is the most cun- ning adversary to securing your financial future. Unfortunately, many college students obtain credit cards while still in school. Credit card companies use enticing promo- tions to lure consumers by increas- ing credit limits and offering pre- approval. All of these strategies attempt to install the habit of spend- ing now and paying later. Many students don™t realize how destructive this habit is, until their credit card payments become the largest part of their monthly budget. Credit card debt has been on the rise for the past two decades. It may be difficult to break the habit of using credit cards; however, the reward is worth the effort. So what can you do?

ERIN FRANCISCO FEATURES WRITER Establishing better study habits is a skill that some students do not master until late in their coilege careers, if ever at all. Learning which study skills work for you, personally, is important because we all learn at different rates. There are, however, certain study habits from which all students can benefit. Particularly in their first year, students come from high school and have never developed the skills needed for college, said Derrance Hughes, counselor and Academic Workshop Coordinator at ECU™s Center for Counseling and Student Development.

The center offers four workshops for students: Time Management, Becoming a Success- ful Student, Note Taking, and Test Anxiety/Preparation. There is no appointment necessary, and the workshops are open to all students. In order to achieve better study habits, students should assess the way they study. Many students procrastinate,and ing test one week in advance is also an effective way to prepare. Time management is always a major issue, Hughes said. In order to avoid a time crunch, ECU™s counseling Center suggests that students set aside a time every- day for studying. it is a good idea to pick the time of day, or night, in which you are at your best, and study then. It is couple of hours a day, everyday, I can find time to finish all of my work on time, said Senior accounting major, Erin Moore.

The Lady Pirates fell 1-0 in Friday™s match against the Terriers of Maryland Baltimore County and then lost again on Sunday 1-0 to the Maryland Terrapins. ECU played both teams tight but could not produce goals in any of their limited scoring opportunities. The Pirates out-shot the Terriers 8-7 but were vastly out-produced by the 14th-ranked Terrapins 24-4. ECU held UMBC scoreless until junior forward Nicole Grinspoon headed in a goai on a Laura Motley feed 7:25 into overtime.

Their AD and coaches will meet tomorrow and we will know whether we are going up there after everything settles. This writer can be contacted at sports@theeastcarolinian.com. Men™s soccer team rolls past Wofford Freshmen pave the way for Pirates to capture win BECKY JORDAN STAFF WRITER After a rough pre-game meal that left the men™s soccer team feeling queasy, the Pirates pulled together a strong team effort to beat Wofford, 3-1. The preseason Conference-USA polis had the Pirates picked to finish dead last, but so far they have a win- ning record of 2-1. The Pirates only loss came against a nationally ranked North Carolina squad who suffered their first loss of the season to No. 6 St. Louis last Sunday, 2-1. ; Freshman midfielder Reed Avren scored his first collegiate goal to lead : the Pirates attack in the first half. Freshman forward Josh Foltz also put his name in ECU™s records with ' the first goal of his career. The Foltz ' score came in the second half with 15 minutes remaining in the match to give ECU a 2-0 lead. : Wofford™s Michael Gonzales } answered just moments later with a goal for the Terriers. i This delayed effort would do nothing to bring down the Pirates as ; sophomore DJ Jarmon came off the bench to score the third, and final, unassisted goal. There was a total team effort shown in this win, said Head Coach Devin O'Neill. Several guys came off the bench and stepped up to really help the team out. The Pirates are playing well, and they have been able to garnish some respect in the first few games this year. The season continues this week with a road trip that starts out against Louisville and ends with a match against Cal-Poly SLO. So far, injuries have plagued the Pirates and caused the lineup to change. There have been up to five freshmen starters for the Pirates first three games, but that was an expectation at the beginning of pre- season. Our team is very young and we have a few years to mature, said sophomore team captain Clyde Simms. Junior goalie RJ Marvinney is the oldest player out there but there have been a few surprises. I™ve been really pleased with the play of fresh- men Reed Avren and Jay Ingram, they look as if they have a few years of collegiate soccer under their belt. The team tried out it™s new forma- tion against UNC-Chapel Hill, but changed it against Charlotte and ended up being pleased with the way it worked. The Pirates are looking to become a much more defensive team, which will allow the offense to focus on their end of the bargain. We still have a few kinks to work out as the guys get used to playing with one another, O™Neill said. We have a very competitive team that will continue to improve throughout the season. This year™s team is concentrating on the establishment of team play. A sentiment that seems to be echoed ° by all of ECU™s team. members. There is no standout on this team, said Avren. Everything that happens is done as a team. I™m not surprised at the way we are playing. , We have a good group of guys that are ; willing to work hard to accomplish ' the goals that we have set. This writer can be contacted at sports@theeastcarolinian.com. THE EAST CAROLINIAN + SPORTS Townes and Henry have banner days at Tulane Donovan picks up honors Senior volleyball star Lisa Dono- van, following a convincing per- formance over the weekend, was named to the Virginia Tech Hokie Invitational All-Tournament team. Donovan made 92 assists over the weekend, an average of almost 31 per match and 8.5 assists per game. Defensively, Donovan collected 25 digs, including 17 in the Pirates win against UMBC. Currently, she is ECU™s all-time record holder for assists in a career with 2,972. Lisa did a really good job for us this weekend, espĂ©cially in the win versus UMBC, said Head Coach Colleen Farrell. She is a very hard worker and her leadership on the court is a reflection of her desire to win. Donovan and the Pirates will resume play on September 18 against North Carolina. The game will begin at 7:00 p.m. in Minges Colliseum. LISA DONOVAN Iback Leonard Henry had one of biggest games of his } career in last Saturday™s 51-24 ver Tulane. lenry rushed for 218 yards and scored two touchdowns.

He is 81 yards away from becoming the 14th back in ECU history to run for more than 2,000 yards in their career. Dating back to the begining of last season, the Plrates are 9-0 when they rush for more than 100 Vards in a game. ECU finished the game against Tulane with 319 yards on the ground. Redshirt freshman Marvin Townes will likely be the return specialist for the remainder of the season after gobbling up 176 return yards on four carries in ECU™s win against Tulane. Townes was voted the C-USA special teams player of the week. Townes had returns of 56, 30, 28 and 62 yards. He broke a 21-year- old record at ECU for kickoff return average by recording a impressive 44.0 yards per kick off return against the Green Wave. Townes averages 37.0 yards per return, second best kick off returner in C-USA. It made me feel real good, said Townes. For me to come out as a redshirt freshman and handle the pressure like I do and go out and perform the way I do, to help my team get good field position every time, it really feels good. It makes me feel like 1 am really delivering something to the team. MARVIN TOWNES Golf from page AQ A stroke total of 314 in the second round on Saturday put the Lady Pirates in second place, two strokes behind UNC-Wilmington. Right now we are in a position to win and that™s ali we want, a chance to win on the final day, Williams said. ECU stood in second place at the start of play on Sunday, still in the running to win the tourna- ment, just two strokes behind UNC Wilmington. The Lady Pirates had their best day of the tournament in the final round on Sunday with a score of 304. At the end of the day, ECU fell just a few strokes short to UNC- Wilmington, who had a third and final round score of 299. We were in the place to win up to the last four or five holes, Wil- liams said. UNC Wilmington just shot a terrific round to beat us. The Unlimited Potential/Baytree Classic provided a good weekend of golf for the Lady Pirates and a positive start to the new season. At the end of the tournament they came out with 30 head to head victories. There were seven teams that were ranked ahead of us last year and we beat six of them, and [ think that™s great. Last Year, was the first in ECU women™s golf history. This weekend, the team proved that it will be a force of reckoning in 2001. The next stop for the Lady Pirates will be at the Memphis Women™s Invitational on September 17-18 in Memphis, Tennessee. The two-day event will be an opportunity for ECU to see what lies ahead in C-USA. This writer can be contacted at sports@theeastcarolinian.
