Study: Campus still in dark about men’s hoops
Students dont know when games are played,
or that tickets are free. Research findings
could affect the entire athletic department.

that the campus is still underin­

the same formula it always has — with one
exception — to calculate the expected stu­
dent and parent contribution.
It has, however, altered some things stu­
dents will find essential.
Drexel used to assum e stud ents could
contribute up to 70 percent of their co-op
earnings to their tuition bill, but now they
use 55 p e rc e n t in th e ir c alcu latio n . T he
c o n trib u tio n is n o t obligatory; it m erely
offsets the parent contribution.
Additionally, the Office o f Financial Aid
has altered the way it handles seniors and
how it allots money to designated classes.
D o n a ld D ic k a s o n , vice p r e s i d e n t o f
enrollment management, launched a study
to determ ine why students felt they were
n o t getting satisfoctory financial aid. By
e x a m in in g th e e x p e n se s o f s tu d e n ts
thro ug h ou t their stay at Drexel, he found
students w ould be best helped if seniors,
with their additional term o f classes, were
not expected to absorb the extra cost of that
term.
D ickason wants to equalize the parent
and stu d en t c o n trib u tio n for each o f the
student’s years at Drexel, including senior
year. To do this, since the money available
for federal grants and loans is static, the aid
m ade available by Drexel is the n u m b e r
which m ust grow to m eet the need. (See
graphs on page 3.)
Dickason has pledged to have seniors’
fmancial needs met. Soon, financial aid in
the form of Drexel grants will be available
to seniors in am ounts comparable to those
given to freshmen.
Since increased financial aid arrives next
year — and hopefully, says Dickason, con­
tinues until all need is met — students who
will be pre-juniors in fall 1995-96 will bene­
fit from the increase first.
The m oney is com ing from a Board of
Trustees decision to increase the financial
aid b udget by 10 percent in the 1995-96
academic year. The bulk of the increase has
been allocated to the pre-junior, junior and
senior classes.
T he p referen tial allocation, explained
Dickason, makes up for the exclusion of
th e se s tu d e n ts fro m th e F in a n c ia l Aid
Assurance Plan. It also helps phase in the
senior year aid increases.
S tu d en ts’ righteous indig n atio n ab ou t
financial aid inequity had been so w ide­
s p re a d th a t tw o years ago, E n ro llm e n t
M a n a g e m e n t b e g a n th e F in a n c ia l Aid
Assurance Plan.
The Plan aimed to guarantee one level of
financial aid to students for all their years at
Drexel, so long as nothing about their situ­
ations changed.

Canavan to stay at Drexel
Dr. Thomas Canavan, dean of the College of Arts and Sciences,
has refused the post of Provost at Metropolitan State College in
Denver, Colo.
Courted as a finalist for the Metro State position, Canavan con­
sidered the college after an early March visit to the campus.
Canavan opted to decline the position, saying “there are tremen­
dous opportunities here [at Drexel]” which he still wants to pursue.
However, after 15 years at Drexel, he has not ruled out future
opportunities elsewhere.
“I would seek opportunities as they present themselves,” said
Canavan. According to him, such chances have come up about once
a year for the past four or five years.
But currently, said Canavan, “there is nothing [from other uni­
versities] being considered, and I am not pursuing any position.”

Teresa Jones submits resignation_______
Director of Health Services Teresa Jones has resigned, effective
May 5, for personal reasons. She is getting married and moving to
North Carolina.
As Director of Health Services she is the contact source for the
University’s health and counseling services, as well as head of the
student health insurance program at Drexel. The position is expect­
ed to be filled by June 1.
Jones cited the creation the Peer Education Program as one of her
accomplishments during her three-and-a-half years here. The pro­
gram focuses on such topics as alcohol abuse and sexual assault.
Jones also helped broaden the coverage of the student health insur­
ance policy through Presbyterian Hospital.
“Because I was the first person to have this job, I feel that I was
given the freedom to create a program which the students needed,”
said Jones.
Brew-Off a **Final Four*^ of beer____________
The Hospitality Organization for Students and the Hospitality
Sales and Marketing Association, two student groups based in the
Hotel and Restaurant Management program, are sponsoring the

Representatives of the HRM program said they hope to open the
competition to all student groups next year.
Judging and a reception for the participants will take place April

FINANCIAL AID from page I
The Plan’s guarantee for a
student only holds if their par­
en ts’ incom e and assets have
n o t chang ed , the s tu d e n t’s
in com e and assets have not
changed, the student has main­
tained the grades required for
any scholarships and has not
earned any additional scholar­
ships.
I t’s difficult to keep those
variables constant over a four
or five-year p eriod, so som e
may find nothing has changed.
It won’t usually result in addi­
tional m oney unless a parent
has becom e u nem ployed, or
something equally drastic.
D ire c to r o f F inancial Aid
Nick Flocco said m ost of the
stu d e n ts covered by the
Assurance Plan who come to
see him haven’t read or under­
sto o d w hat the Plan m eans,
despite D rexel’s having “the
most well-done financial aid lit­
era tu re available to the s tu ­
dent.”
There are still three current
classes o f s tu d e n ts — p r e ­
juniors, juniors, and seniors —
w ho are n o t covered by the
Assurance Plan. These students,
said Dickason, are the primary
beneficiaries of the 10 percent
financial aid budget increase.
Instead of finding substantial
increases in their financial aid
packages, students can expect
m ore o f their peers to receive
aid, said Giles Letlough, Pell
Grant coordinator in the Office
of Financial Aid. The 10 percent
increase is balanced against a
5.95 percent annual increase in
tuition since 1992.
Flocco was reluctant to dis­
cuss th e im p act o f these
changes. He ex p lain ed how
increases in aid won’t necessari­
ly make students satisfied about
th e ir p erso n a l situ a tio n ,
because his office cannot make
aid available to every o u t­
stretched hand.
Take the ex perience of
RoseEllen Dougherty, a senior,
who has never received Drexel
grant money. W hen her sister
e n ro lle d as a fresh m an at
D rexel, h er siste r received
$2,000, but Dougherty’s aid did
not change.
Flocco could not explain the
apparent mistake, due to the
individual nature of every stu­
dent’s situation. Dougherty, as
a sen io r, is finishing Drexel
before the Assurance Plan was
available to her. She won’t see
the inequity of parent and stu­
d e n t c o n trib u tio n changed
either.
The last change for financial
aid is a m ethodological one.
Projected student numbers will
be divided into the am ount of
aid for th a t class, and th a t
am o u n t will not change. For
example, if the senior class is
allocated $100,000, and there
are 500 seniors, each senior is
a llo tte d $200. If a d d itio n a l
seniors matriculate, each senior
still gets $200. If more freshmen
attend, their numbers will not
affect money given to seniors.
The deadline to file an appli­
cation for financial aid for the
1995-96 school year with the
Office of Financial Aid is May 1.

Junior and senior years after this year’s planned allocation. Note
the increase in Drexel contributed financial aid (1) and the decrease
in expected parent and student contribution (5 and 6). There is a
level at approximately the $14,000 mark which represents a

Survey finds men’s hoops lacks campus support
BASKETBALL from page 1
surveyed said they have never
attended a game. More than half
of students surveyed said they
didn’t know how to get tickets for
basketball games. More than a
th ird d id n ’t know when the
games took place.
The stu d en ts’ research also
found current promotion of the
team ineffective. Flyers, court
drops, Triangle advertising and
coverage, G rillin’ & C hillin ’
events, and the Undergraduate
Student G overnm ent Associa­
tion’s Tees for Threes did little to
increase game attendance or
awareness of the team and its
games.
“We’re delighted to know [the
results],” said Vice Provost for
S tudent Life Diana Hackney.
“Now, we can move to correct
them.”
Landberg said her project team
was “really shocked” by ^ e statis­
tics as well.
“We feel that if the misconcep­
tion [about tickets] was clarified,”
said Landberg, “attendance may
increase dramatically.”
Although official figures were
unavailable at press time, Bowie
said attendance numbers for the
men’s games took “a little dip this
year.”
While he said the campus may
be “used to winning ... [and has]
kind of taken the team for grant­
ed,” Bowie also attributed the

drop to a lack of promotion.
“A lot of people aren’t making
informed choices” about fitting
sporting events into their campus
schedule, said Bowie.
According to Bowie, one clari­
fication is already planned for
next season’s basketball sched­
ules: They will state in print that
regular-season tickets are free
with a Drexel ID.
Drexel hopes to use the stu­
dents’ report as a springboard for
b etter p ro m o tio n o f all the
school’s athletic programs.
Before consecutive years of
University budget reductions, the
Athletic Departm ent had staff
devoted to marketing and pro­
m otion. The Learn by DUing
study, Bowie, and Rebecca
Weidensaul, academic advisor to
Drexel athletics, all called for
increased m arketing o f the
University’s sports teams.
“ [The study] is a reaffirmation
th at a m arketing strategy ...
needs to be in place and official,”
said Rebecca Weidensaul, acade­
mic advisor to Drexel athletics.
Landberg added that the study
showed support for any type of
m arketing position in the
Athletic Department — from an
academic independent study to a
co-op administered through a
marketing firm.
The research also called for
more diverse methods of adver­
tising and prom otion, ranging
from large schedules and signs on
cam pus to e-mail a n n o u n c e­
ments on game day.
Quantitative methods profes­
sor Hazem Maragah, Learn by
DUing faculty advisor, said the
group would conduct sim ilar
research with Drexel alumni this
spring.
“The report was very profes­
sional,” said W eidensaul.
“[Landberg, Bogaert, and Ferry]
should be commended for their
work.”
Nancy O’Leary, a Quantitative
M ethods teaching assistant
involved with the study, also
praised the administration’s reac­
tion to. Learn by DUing’s find­
ings.
“I was not as surprised by the
results as I was by the administra- •
tors, and how they want to turn
things around,” O’Leary said.
Learn by DUing was founded
by graduate professor Dr.
Andrew Verzilli. The class com­
bines analytical tools and busi­
ness concepts which are taught in
the College of Business and
Administration curriculum.

Although more minority stu­
dents are earning college degrees,
students of color continue to be
less likely to enroll in college than
whites, according to a recent
report released by the American
Council on Education.
According to the ACE report,
the number of minority students
attending colleges and universi­
ties rose steadily during the past
decade, but college participation
am ong m inorities still lags
behind that of whites. Only 33
percent of African-American and
36 percent of H ispanic high
school graduates ages 18 to 24
attended college in 1993, com­
pared with nearly 42 percent of
whites, according to ACE’s
“T hirteenth Annual Status
Report on Minorities in Higher
Education.”
ACE President Robert Atwell
called the gap in college partic­
ipation between whites and
minorities ‘‘cause for continuing
concern.”

before we can claim to have
achieved equality of educational
opportunity and achievement,”
he said.
The report by ACE, which rep­
resents the presidents o f the
nation’s major colleges and uni­
versities, comes at a time when
the debate abou t affirm ative
action, particularly in the area of
university admissions, is heating
up.
P ro ponents of affirm ative
action policies argue that when
legitimate efforts are made to
reflect ethnic diversity on cam­
pus, no one is hurt.
Recently, UCLA Chancellor
Charles Young told the universi­
ty’s academic senate that “affir­
mative action has benefitted the
individuals and the groups to
which it has been targeted, but
the diversity it has created has
benefitted each and every one of
us.”
However, Young added that
no one is admitted to UCLA sole­
ly because of his or her race.
“What’s critical to understand
is that race, ethnicity and gender
play absolutely no role in who is
eligible to attend the University
of California,” he said. “Within
the eligible pool, UCLA seeks to
enroll students broadly reflective
of the cultural, social and eco­
nom ic diversity o f the state.
Students never are admitted to
UCLA merely t>ecause of their
race, ethnicity or gender.”
California’s Master Plan for
Higher Education mandates that
the top 12.5 percent o f each
year’s C alifornia high school
graduates may attend UC
schools. Top graduates are identi­
fied through a combination of
test scores, high school grades
and courses com pleted. Still,
m any in the state, including
Regent W ard Connerly, have
argued ethnicity — n o t test
scores or grades — is the primary
consideration when individual
UC cam puses choose am ong
those “eligible” students.
Affirmative action policies, say
opponents, admit less academ­
ically qualified students at the
expense of others.
“Often affirmative action poli­
cies are not merit-based. They do
not reward those students who
have achieved,” said M atthew
Kluchenek, a stu d en t at
G eorgetown U niversity Law
Center. “I also believe that affir­
mative action is not doing much
to'redress wrongs. Most minori­
ties who do well in school or on
the job don’t need affirmative
action; they would have succeed­
ed anyway.”
Presently, the White House is
reviewing affirmative action poli­
cies. On Thursday, March 23,
President Bill Clinton told college
reporters “it is in everyone’s
interest to see that everybody gets
the best chance to live up to their
fullest abilities. On the other
hand, it is in no one’s interest to
see that people get positions if
they’re completely unqualified to
hold them.”
Clinton told students that in
the past 30 years, much progress
has been made in opening up
opportunities to minorities and
used his experience working in
the South to illustrate his point.
“When I was your age and I
began to work in political cam­
paigns ... there were still court­
houses on squares in county seats
in my state that had segregated
restrooms,” he said. “In my life­
time, when I w ^ your age, in the
mid-60s, there were still older
African Americans in my state
who did not know th at they
could vote without buying a poll
tax ... I can rem em ber when
there were no women in any
num ber of jobs now where we
take it for granted that women
wdll be.”
In framing the White House’s
affirmative action review, Clinton
said he has asked his staff to
answer some questions.
“I’ve said, first of all, how do
these programs work, and to they
have a positive effect? Secondly,
even if they work, are they some­
times, at least, unfair to others?
Could you argue that in some
cases there is reverse discrimina­
tion, and if so, how? Thirdly, are
there now others in need who are
not covered by affirmative action
programs?”
“We all have an interest,
including white males, in devel­
oping the capacities of all of us to
relate to one another — because
our economy will grow quicker,
it’ll be stronger, and in a global
society, our diversity is our great­
est asset,” he told students.
Minorities students enrolled in
college have been making slow,
steady progress, states the ACE
report, which found m ore
minorities are earning degrees.
Minority students earning mas­
ter’s degrees increased by 12.4
percent from 1991 and 1992,
according to the study, while the
num ber of doctoral degrees
awarded to African-American
men rose by 15 percent in 1993.
“The growing num bers of
minority students attaining their
degrees is certainly encouraging
new s,” said ACE P resident
Atwell. “It reflects concerted
efforts by colleges and universi­
ties to improve persistence and
completion rates.”
The study also found:
• After declining in the 1980s,
the number of African Americans
earning bachelor’s degrees has
risen steadily since 1990.
• The num ber of faculty of
color employed at colleges and
universities has been rising, but
gains have occurred primarily
among temporary lecturers and
visiting staff.
In fact, the overall tenure rate
among minority faculty dropped
by two percentage points from
1991 to 1992, from 61 percent to
59 percent. The tenure rate of
white £iculty rose by two percent­
age points (firom 70 percent to 72
percent) during that same period.
• Since 1990, the numbers of
Hispanics and Asian Americans
enrolled in college each rose by
26.3 percent. The nu m ber o f
Hispanics earning degrees also
increased in 1992. However,
Hispanic students earned less
th an 4 percent o f all degrees
granted that year.
• College enrollment among
Native Americans increased by 39
percent between 1982 and 1993;
the total num ber of degrees
awarded to this population rose
by 46 percent between 1981 and
1992.
Still, Native Am ericans
account for only 0.8 percent of all
college students, and only 29 per­
cent of American Indian fouryear college freshmen graduate
withing six years of enrollment,
compared with 53 percent of all
four-year college students.

W ith $20 m illio n to sp e n d

e ig h t U n iv e r s ity o f A riz o n a
a rch itectu re stu den ts have set
o u t to d e sig n a new c a m p u s

Under the instruction of p ro ­

spend the semester researching

cally a d v a n c e d ” I n te g r a te d
I n s tr u c ti o n Facility th a t will

Building and the new four-year
campus in Pima County.
H a n d s - o n in v o lv e m e n t in
university projects such as these
is beneficial for b o th the s tu ­
dents and the university. Green
said.
"The students get the experi­
ence working on a real project;
they get to learn to w ork with
real clients — how the decision
making is done and how to get
information,” he said.
“ A n d th e u n iv e r s ity keeps
asking us back because they ben­
efit from fresh ideas,” he adds.
“The stu d e n ts ask good q ues­
tions that are fresh and original.
They ask questions they d o n ’t
kn ow the answers to, whereas
adults npay ask questions with
political agendas in mind.”
Green said the experience the
stu d en ts will receive from the
project will be compatible to an
u r b a n p la n n in g p r o je c t in a
sm all city, since th e s tu d e n ts
have to take into account issues
like population circulation and
parking.
M ic h a e l G o ttf r e d s o n , vice
provost o f undergraduate ed u­
catio n, said the stu d en ts have
been instrum ental in the early
stages o f th e b u ild in g ’s p la n ­
ning.
“T h e y are th e b e s t c ritic s.
T hey challenge every assu m p ­
tion,” he said.
The students have spent the
last two months researching var­
ious details o f the project and
the class recently spent the after­
noon in the second-floor archi­
te c tu re lab p re p a rin g to sta rt
presenting the information they
have gathered. The students will
s t a r t w o rk in g o n th e a c tu a l
d e s ig n o f th e b u ild in g a fte r

K evin B a rb e r, o n e o f th e
class’s four-year students, said
a lth o u g h th e s tu d e n t s have
w ork ed on h a n d s-o n projects
before, this is by far the biggest
p ro je c t in w hich he has been
involved.
“M ost o f the stu ff has been
pretty relevant,” he said.
A lthough it is unlikely that
any of the students’ designs will
be used as the final design for
the building, the students said
they are c o n fid e n t th a t m an y
asp ects o f th e ir research and
designs will be incorporated into
the final product.
Part of their research process
has in c lu d e d s tu d y in g o th e r

said Jennifer Cady, one o f the
students involved in the project.
T h e re s e a rc h ra n g e s fro m
detailed technical aspects, like
designing an ideal lecture hall,
to more broad concepts, such as
how the campus will be effected
by an underground building and
how to in c o rp o ra te p ro p o se d

Green said. ASU has an effective
example of how to include more
th a n 100 c o m p u t e r s in o n e
room “without being inhum an,”
he said.
B ut th e ASU lab also has
technical problems that the stu­
dents hope to avoid, like an elec­

Joe Penn has to write a paper
for his English Class and one for
his W o m e n ’s Studies sem inar,
both by the end of the week.
As if that wasn’t bad enough,
he also has a m id te rm in
Economics, plus an im p o rtan t

Joe’s nerves are shot — he’s
tense, fatigued and wired from
too much coffee. Joe wants to feel
better now.

K night also gives m assage

dormitory resident advisors.
But the one-on-one sessions
are the most rewarding for her.
“I look at myself as a resource
to people,” she said. “I don’t do
magic, but it’s nice to feel I really
can make a difference.”
Knight says she feels there is
more to her job than just helping
relax students’ muscles.
“I believe 60 percent of my job
is giving good massage, and 40

she said.
W hen she gives a massage,
Knight invites students to talk
with her about anything. If they
prefer to stay silent, though, she
does not get offended.
In fact, Knight feels most suc­
cessful when she can relax a stu­
dent so much that he or she falls
asleep. “The biggest compliment
to me is when someone not only
falls asleep, but also drools,” she
said.

Mehzer, who has tried Student
H e a lth ’s massage service, the
therapy really works.
“W hen I was done [with my
m assage], I felt my b od y and
nerves had a heightened sense of
sensitivity.
“The next morning I was really
limber and relaxed,” he added.
Knight’s first goal is to make
students feel com fortable. She
explains to them what is involved
in massage therapy and lets them
choose how m uch or little they
want to wear.
Then she asks if they would
like her to put on music or use
massage oil, and finds out what
specific areas th ey feel need
soothing.
“The main thing,” said Knight,
“is to be comfortable. Penn is a
very stressful place to be. People
who come to me really want to be
there and want to feel better.”
Although the price may seem
high, Meltzer says he feels it is
worthwhile. “You are getting a
direct service from a professional
that you can’t get elsewhere. It’s

S tudents who used to log
hours in the library to do
research are now logging onto
computers.
As more and more campuses
are phasing into the interactive
age, the way some students do
their homework is changing.
“It makes research for many
stu d en ts m uch easier,” said
Myers, a graduate history stu­
dent at the U niversity of
California at Los Angeles. “I use
a program designed by the
Smithsonian to find historical
visual images that I could other­
wise only get by flying all over
the place looking for rare books
and collections.”
Academic work that once
took hours to com plete in a
library can take m inutes in a
computer lab.
A drienne M. Petty, an
Am erican H istory stu d en t at
C olum bia U niversity in New
York, recently had an assignment
where he had to search through
old editions of the “Pennsylvania
Most college students would
probably agree that studying is
for the birds, but few would say
that about their free time.
Unless, o f course, they are
mem bers of Eckerd College’s
Bird Rescue Program, a group of
30 student volunteers who assist
endangered birds througho ut
southwestern Florida.
Because o f F lorida’s dense
wildlife and human population,
birds often get snagged by fish­
ing wire or injured by boats or
cars. Eckerd students help res­
cue and rehabilitate the injured
birds.
“There is something very tan­
gible about the work that is ben­
eficial to the students,” said Bill
Covert, director of the college’s
Waterfront program. “You can
hold a bird in your arms, ban­
dage it, give it saline, watch it
heal and release it back into the
wild.”
Taking turns working shifts,
m em bers of E ckerd’s Bird
Rescue team carry beepers so
they can be immediately notified
when their help is needed. Area
residents call a rescue center
when they see a distressed bird,
Gazette” on CD-ROM.
“It’s a whole new way to use
these old new spapers. It’s all
indexed, and you can punch in a
word and find 1,000 entries,”
Petty said. “It’s much less time
consuming than doing it manu­
ally. You can even dow nload
information on disks. It’s totally
revolutionary.”
And studying for many stu­
dents means not only reviewing
class notes, but traveling the
Internet, too.
Both Myers and Petty are
members of various discussion
groups that trade information,
tips and sources via e-mail sys­
tems located at various universi­
ties connected to the Internet.
If racing around the world on
the information superhighway is
not enough, professors are start­
ing to download electronic texts
onto students.
A computer program devel­
oped by McGraw-Hill lets pro­
fessors customize printed text
books by selecting the specific
chapters and articles that a class
will need.
and the students take it from
there.
Covert said that Bird Rescue
seemed like a natural extension
of the school’s maritime search
and rescue program . *‘We fig­
ured that we were already teach­
ing and executing searches and
rescues for people,” he said, “so
why no t do th em for b ird s,
too?”
A group of 30
student volunteers
helped in assisting
endangered birds
throughout
southwestern
Florida.
When the rescue team arrives
on the scene to help retrieve the
injured birds, they attem pt to
minimize injury to the bird and,
at times, can release the bird
immediately.
If the damage is severe, they
bring the bird to the Seabird
S anctuary or the P innelas

Last December, junior David
Burowski answered the call to
help save an injured seabird.
When he arrived at the b ird ’s
location, he could see the bird
was in serious tro u b le .
“Someone had hooked the bird
and ended up pulling out the
lining of the throat while trying
to get his hook b ac k ,” said
Burowski. “We were able to help
firee the bird and even repair the
lining of his throat, but after a
few days, the infection got so
bad that he just couldn’t su r­
vive.”
D espite
the
setbacks,
Burow ski said the w ork is
incredibly rewarding. “The fact
that you’re freeing the birds is
enough, but when you’re able to
help release it back in to the
wild, th a t’s a great feeling,”
Burowski said.
The pro gram is becom ing
increasingly p o p u la r at the
1 ,50 0-student school, said
sophomore Aaron Spytma, who
becam e involved w ith Bird
Rescue last year. “A lot of stu­
dents want to do something to
get involved with the wildlife,”
said Spytma, who is originally
from western New York. “When
I came down here, I saw all these
birds, and I wanted to do every­
th in g I could to leaE:n a b o u t
them.”
' /
Aimee Luthrig/ger, also a
sophom ore, s a i/f she becam e
involved after/^teing a heron
caught in a fishing line after
class one day. After trying to
save the bird herself, Luthringer
learned about the Bird Rescue
Program.
Spytm a agrees. “You find
these birds in these h o rrib le
conditions, but then you get to
help get them ready to go back
to Aeir natural habitat,” he said.
“When you let th at bird back
into the wild, your heart just
soars.”
Students
cheat with
electronic
underwear
College Press Service
Police in Bangkok halted an
elaborate electronic scheme last
m onth, arresting 75 students
who kept radio receivers in their
underwear to help them cheat
on an arm y college entrance
exam.
After learning of the opera-*
tion, police entered classrooms
at Ram kam heanh University,
where the exam was taking
place. They found 75 students
wearing the specially designed
receivers in their underwear.
The students said they paid a
police officer 50,000 baht
($2,000) for the radio devices,
who signalled in the correct
answers as the exam was taking
place.
The officer and the students
face up to two years in prison if
convicted.

Athletic dorms to comply
with NCAA housing rule
The new rule states that an athletic
dormitory floor cannot have an athlete to
non-athlete ratio of more than 50 percent.
Chad Schexnayder
College Press Service
The NCAA recently passed a
rule as p art o f its academ ic
reform movement requiring col­
lege members to integrate ath­
letes and non-athletes in dormi­
tories.
The rule, effective Aug. 1,
1996, states that an athletic dor­
m ito ry floor or wing cannot
have an athlete to non-athlete
ratio of more than 50 percent.
“The rule is to further inte­
grate student athletes into the
general student body popula­
tion,” said Dan Dutcher, NCAA
director of legislative services.
University o f Southwestern
L ouisiana A thletics D irector
N elson Schexnayder said he
agreed w ith the reasoning
behind the policy.
“The purpose of this rule was
the NCAA felt that some schools
had elaborate dorm s for their
athletes, and it was unfair to the
rest o f the students,” he said.
“Personally, I think it’s a good
rule.”
However, at least one USL
football player disagree.
“The rule is no good,” said
Brian Jackson. “We (football
players) have to stick together as
m uch as possible. This rule
would be breaking us up. We
have no m ore privileges than
anybody else. We’re here to do a
job. Regular students living there
(with athletes) is not fair because
by doing that you are putting
athletes in a b in d ”
Some students who are non­
athletes expressed mixed feelings
about living with athletes.
“It m ight w o rk ,” said one
freshman resident of Voorhies
Dormitory. “It all depends on
the chemistry between the two
people. It’s like when you move
in with som ebody you d o n ’t
know to begin with — you just
have to live with it.”
“I wouldn’t mind living with a
girl that played softball or some­
thing,” said one female student
resident of Bancroft Hall. “As
long as we know each o th er
before we move in, I can get
along w ith her. If we’re just
thrown together, that can cause
problems.”
Head football coach Nelson
Stokley said a concern among
coaches is how to keep track of
athletes when they’re scattered
across campus.
“I like to know where they
(the football players) are,” said
Stokley. “Spreading them all
over campus lessens the control
we have as coaches, and we are
the ones when something goes
wrong that gets it.”
Logistically, things could be
more difficult for athletes, many
of whom must comply with cur­
few checks the night before
games, said Schexnayder.
“From the athletes’ point of
view, especially football, it will
be harder when they call team
meetings because (football play­
ers) wiO be spread out,” he said.
“It might be difficult to control
noise. When there is open house
in one area, and players are try­
ing to get rest, it will be difficult.
It’s going to have to be a little of
give-and-take.”
Some colleges already have
invoked rules requiring athletes
to live with regular college stu­
dents. For example, all. freshmen
athletes at N o tre Dame are
required to live with non-athletes their first year on campus.
O ther colleges such as Texas
Tech allow junior- and senioryear football players .to live off
campus if they maintain a grade
point average of 2.5 or better.
Will USL athletes have similar
opportunities?
“I think they’re going to have
to do something like that,” said
USL football player Jake
Delhomme. “I think if you are in
college and are here to play
sports, you should have enough
responsibility as a student-athlete to know you have to be
hom e for curfew. I’m for the
Texas Tech policy of, if you’re
GPA is high enough, you can use
your room-and-board check to
get an apartment.”
Stokley said he already is
searching for solutions to prob­
lems concerning the housing
policy. “I think there are pluses
and minuses,” he said. “I’m big
on keeping the guys together,
b u t I see the NCAA’s view.
We’re just going to have to work
through it.”
Although the 104th Congress
may have placed tobacco regu­
lations on the legislative back
burner, a new study from a pro­
fessor at Duke University may
heat things up once again.
Basing his monetary figures
on a c o st-p e r-p a c k system ,
Duke economist W. Kip Viscusi
has released a study that focuses
on who pays for the cost of
smokers in the United States.
In a paper for the National
Bureau of Economic Research,
Viscusi states that each pack of
cigarettes sold in the U.S. cost
taxpayers a p p ro x im a te ly 55
cents in health care costs.
These costs range from high­
er prem ium s on health insur­
ance to Medicare.
In addition, the money lost
from the extra sick days that
smokers use is about a penny a
pack, while the extra costs for
fire dam age from sm okers is
two cents a pack.
V iscusi said th a t sm okers
also cash in on their life insur­
ance policies faster than nonsm okers, ad d in g a n o th e r 14
cents per pack for life insurance
policies.
Together, Viscusi estimates
th a t sm o kers cost taxpayers
about 72 cents a pack.
Considering the federal gov­
ernment collects 24 cents a pack
in excise taxes, and states charge
an average of 29 cents a pack,
the government is looking at a
19 cents-per-pack shortfall in
terms of eventual costs.
Since, however, smokers die
at an average earlier age than
non-smokers, federal and state
governm ents save around 23
cents a pack in costs.
A d d itio n ally , since m ost
smokers collect their pensions
and Social Security for far fewer
years than non-smokers, society
saves another $1.19 a pack.
V iscusi said sm okers still
make up for their eventual costs
to society by the a m o u n t of
taxes they pay.
College Press Service
As if Generation X doesn’t get
enough bad press as it is, now
comes word that twenty-some­
th in g em ployee^ take m ore
bogus days off work.
A Gallup poll of 671 adults
indicates that nearly 25 percent
of employees between the ages
of 18-29 abuse their sick days.
The study, commissioned by
A c coun tants on Call, an ac­
counting placement firm in New
Jersey, found that Gen Xers fake
illness twice as many times as
employees between 30 and 49
years old, and four tim es as
much as workers 50 and older.
Gallup officials point out that
the results may not be dramatic
as they seem , since w orkers
grow more loyal and responsible
toward their companies as they
grow older.
Still, the n u m b ers a re n ’t
going to stop some from shak­
ing their heads and saying “Kids
to d ay ...”
Twenty-five percent of work­
ers between the ages of 18 and
29 said they put on their best
sore-throat voice and call in sick
two times a year.
Only 14 percent of the 30- to
39-year-old w orkers adm it
doing the same, as did 13 per­
cent of those 40 to 49 years old.
Proving integrity advances
with age, only six percent of
employees 50 and older admit to
com ing down with the “blue
flu.”
The study also found that
employees closer to the coasts
took more days off work.
Employees in Maine, Florida,
Texas and California took nearly
twice as many personal days as
their flatland counterparts in the
Midwest.

Currently, Americans spend
about $450 billion each year on
public education. This figure
represents an almost 65 percent
increase in per stu d e n t cost
since 1970. At the same time.
Scholastic Aptitude Test scores
have declined and U.S. students
have finished near the bottom
in three out of four academic
achievement tests. Why?
Most seem to agree that the
reasons are the lack of account­
ability and the lack of participa­
tion by parents. These problems
can be solved by instituting a
voucher system into public edu­
cation as has recently been sug­
gested
by
P ennsylvania
Governor Tom Ridge.
C u rre n tly , in m ost areas,
p u blic schools are v irtu ally
unaccountable to parents. No
matter what the quality of edu­
cation, the parents are forced to
send their children to the school
that is responsible to educate all
children within that geographic
area. Parents have no choice.
This results in a feeling of frus­
tration which tends to lead to
apathy. A voucher system could
solve these problems. How?
P aren ts w ould receive a
voucher for each child of school
age. These vouchers could be
“spent” at any school the par-

Thomas Jefferson? Non, merci
Jason Woemer
Staff W rite r
So what is Jefferson in Paris
about?
To answer, I must refer to Pulp
Fiction.
There are three ways to look at
both films, and each will result in
a different answer to the above
question. At first glance, Jefferson
in Paris seems to be about the five
years our third president spent in
France, serving as the American
ambassador. Looked at in the
same way, Pulp Fiction is about a
bunch of criminals.
Watching only the first and
last scenes of Jefferson in Paris, the
viewer would understandably
come to the conclusion that the
film attem pts to explain why
Jefferson freed a number of his
slaves shortly after his return
from France. Applying the same
process to Pulp Fiction, the viewer
would think it is the story of how
Pum pkin and Honey Bunny
barely escaped a botched diner
holdup.
But the real story, as usual, is
different.
Just as Pulp Fiction is really
about redemption (if you don’t
believe me, ask Q uentin),
Jefferson in Paris is really about
rivalries. Jefferson’s tim e in
France coincided with the birth
of the French Revolution; the
French liberals were striving to
create a democracy more perfect
than the Americans’. Jefferson’s
oldest daughter Patsy^played
brilliantly by Gwyneth pStrow, is
constantly at odds with his lovers:

The conflicts are numerous,
but do they mesh and weave to
form a riveting, touching story?
Not really.
Jefferson in Paris certainly isn’t
boring; but it doesn’t contain the
depth and punch of previous
Merchant Ivory productions like
The Remains of the Day and
Howards End,
Nick N o lte’s portrayal of
Thomas Jefferson reminded me
of a nickel: It looked like him, but
that’s about it. Bringing to life an
American legend might be too
much for anyone. Try to think of
an actor who could convincingly
portray George Washington or
Martin Luther King, Jr.
Jefferson in Paris does have its
good points, though. It is beauti­

waiting to see Fugazi are intoler­

out wherever they play, and they
will not play for more than five
dollars. T h a t’s a rule w hich
they’ve enforced since their birth

them live five times now, and
they have never sucked. They are
still as energetic and capable as

them here at Drexel in 1991.

Fugazi can be described as
punk jazz. They certainly have
some hardcore sensibilities and
motives, but the feel is one of
unpredictable dram atic jazz.
Also, they achieve what Chad
calls musical polygamy. They
have one of the best rhyAm sec­
tions in all of music; the bass and
drums are happily married, but
the phrasing and style of the gui­
tar and vocals are completely in
sync with the rhythm. The parts
of songs are perfect matches, and
the orchestrations they provide
are indicative of pure songwriting talent.
Their live shows are always
exciting, never a let down. With
so many albums, they can never
play every song you want to hear
(they did not do “W aiting

song which they have done every

songs and different versions of
existing tunes.

incred ible gu itar w ork by
Stephen Egerton doesn’t hurt
either. These riffs will have ya
hummin’ in your sleep. It’s hard
to say it any other way — this
CD literally trom ps any other
rock release so far this year.
So, the next time you feel like
Triangle
Entertainment
trying to become cool, go out
and buy All. Maybe you’ll still
have fuzzy dice in your car, but
at least you’ll sound like you have
a clue.

If Your Birthday is This Week:
Today, 1 0 people will ask you if
you gof a haircut. After the fourth
or fifth one, you decide to look in
a mirror. You don't notice anything
w ro n g until you turn your h e a d
sideways and notice the large tat­
too on the b o c k of you r n ec k .
Tonight: G e t a good lawyer.
A rie s (M a r . 2 1 -A p r. 19): Peanut
butter is not a g ood substitute for
Krazy G lue. You'd better get the
cot dow n off the ceiling before it
hurts someone. You'll need a good
spatula.
Taurus (Apr. 20-AAay 2 0 ): Expect
a sudden disease to strike all of
your friends w hose names begin
with 'J.' The symptoms are cough­
ing, runny nose, and the tendency
to soy "Semprini" at loud volumes.
The only w a y to cure them is to pul
them all in a room together with
David Hosselhoff.
G e m in i ( M a y 2 1 -Ju n e 2 1 ): You
lose your sense of taste. Do not let
this get you dow n. This will save
you money, because you con buy
Piels Light in s te a d o f M o ls e n
G o ld e n . Just don't expect any of
your friends to drink it.
C a n c e r (June 2 2 -J u ly 2 2 ): That
babysitting job you took for extra
money is d angerous. W h e n you
come home for the third night in a
row with staples all over your face
and applesauce in your pants, you
might reconsider. This w e e ke n d:
Retaliate.
Leo (July 2 3 -A u g . 22 ): You realize
that your roommate is cheating on
you. He's off sleeping in other peo­
p le 's rooms, losing p ho ne mes­
sages for them, walking in on them
when they're making out. Tonight:
G e t even, lock someone else out
of your room.
V irg o (A ug . 2 3 -S e p r. 2 2 ): G o to
co u rt for th a t s p e e d in g tic k e t.
Claim that anyone silly enough to
d o 9 0 in a 25 mph zone would
not have the fashion sense that you
do. It'll work. Really.
L ib ra (S e p t. 2 3 - O c t . 2 3 ) : Your
sense of timing is impeccable. By
getting a haircut w hen you d id ,
you just b a re ly a v o id e d seein g
your ex-girlfriend again. This is the
third time this w eek you've avoided
her. You should get a medal.
Scorpio (Oct. 2 4 -N o v . 2 1 ): Have
a p a r ty a n d in v ile a ll of y o u r
friends. Paint red, green, blue and
yellow circles all over the dining
room floor and have the biggest
Twister gam e ever. Be sure to have
medical personnel on hand.
S a g itta r iu s ( N o v . 2 2 -D e c . 2 1 ):
M o k e a list of all of the things you
always meant to soy to your mom
but never found the time, and put it
in the m icrow ave along with the
telephone. She'll figure it out.
Top Ten Places to Hide An
Easter Egg
grandma s coffee,
(“These pills are getting too
big!").
_
T h e 9 . In your father’s golf bag,
T riangle (Tore!").
8 . In the piranha tank, (“I’ll
get the Bactine.").
7. In your brother’s floppy
drive, (“Cannot read egg in
drive a:").
6. In the envelope with your
tax returns, (“Audit!").
C a p r i c o r n ( D e c . 2 2 - J a n . 1 9 ):
M o k e sure yo u c o o k the e g g s
before you hide them for the egg
hunt this weekend. In fact, a nice
western om elette w ou ld go w ell
behind the sofa.
5. Leviticus 4 :1 3 , (“And eggs
did rain down upon the popu­
lace .. .”).
4 . In your sister’s training
bra, (“It looks okay from the
side .. .”).
3 . In Aunt Esther’s wig, (Why
break tradition?).
2. Stick shifter knob for your
car (Oeuvre drive!).
1. In a frying pan, (Why
waste a good egg?)T^M
A q u a riu s (Jan. 2 0 -F e b . 18): G et
th a t cut lo o k e d a fte r b e fo re it
begins to fester. M a y b e this will
te a c h you not to p la y "butcher
sh o p " w ith y o u r ro o m m a te 's
friends. Unless one of them volun­
teers to be pork next time.
Pisces (Feb . 1 9 - M a r . 2 0 ): Your
new relationship may fake some
getting used to. Especially when
he takes you to -meet his parents.
At the stdte penitentigry. If you can
g e t o v e r stu m b lin g blo cks like
these, you will hove.a better under­
standing of w ho h^.is. This week­
end: M onkey drour^ej.

Women’s lax
lose two at home
Despite only having two backups on the
bench, the Dragons have managed to remain
competitive.
Tracy Marcus
Sports Editor
Despite strong performances
from attacks Peggy Breslin and
Erin Grant, the women’s lacrosse
team d ro p p ed b o th its hom e
gam es this w eekend against
Tow son State on April 6 and
Cornell University on April 9.
C ornell started their attack
early, powered by a pair of goals
from both Cari Hills and Abigail
Friedland, as the Big Red scored
eight tim es in th e Hrst half.
Drexel’s Erin Grant provided the
only Drexel goal of die half.
Drexel’s Peggy Breslin started
the second half with an imassisted goal for her first of two in the
game.
M id-H elder Ana Perez and
Grant pick up two goals within
the next two minutes off assists
from Breslin.
Grant then returned the favor,
assisting Breslin on her second
goal in D rexel’s 15-6 losing
effort.
Cornell outshot Drexel 38 to
16, w ith Drexel g o altender
Bobbie Zalewski picking up 20
saves to Cornell’s eight.
T hree days earlier, the
Dragons lost a close contest to
the Tigers o f Tow son State.
Drexel put in a great team effort
in the first half, with five players
scoring a total of six goals.
Attack Jessica Fieo picked up
two goals w ithin a m inute o f
each o th e r and helped the
Dragons take a 6-3 lead into the
second half.
However, the Tigers scored
seven straight goals to start the
second half and take the lead,
10-6.
Breslin started Drexel scoring
again with an unassisted goal,
and two more goals by Breslin
and Grant brought the team to
within two. But ^ a t was as close
as it would get, as the Dragons
lost 11-9.
Peggy Breslin continues to
lead Drexel in scoring, leading
the team with 10 goals and 11
assists this season. **[She’s a ]
strong, unselfish player,” said
head coach Sue Groff. “[She’s
the] key person on the attack.
She brings stren g th on the
attack.”
“We’re 1-6 right now [but]
we’re a young team,” said Groff.
“W e’re doing better than last
season. [There’s] a lot of poten­
tial on the team. We only have
14 players. With 12 on the field,
that leaves two back-ups.”

at one. C hobot only gave up
one earned run in the 2-1 loss.
Lehigh shut out Drexel in the
second game 3-0, getting two
unearned runs off of Colby.
The Dragons breathed fire on
the Leopards during the dou­
bleheader on April 8, scoring six
runs in the opener and eight
runs in the nigh tcap . Colby
pitched a th ree-h it com plete
game in the opener, getting help
defensively from the rest of the
team.
Offensively, she was one of
three batters to get multiple hits
in the game. First baseman Jess
Mattie picked up two RBIs on
her only hit of the ball game.
The Leopards continued to
burn in the second game, giving
up eight runs in five innings.
Lafayette was plagued by errors,
giving up four unearned runs.
Winning pitcher Chobot threw
four innings, allowing three hits
and no runs.
Catcher H eather Pandullo,
who was hot with the bat, led
Drexel with three hits and two
RBIs, while scoring two-runs of
her own. The game was called
after five innings because of the
eight run rule, which the coach­
es agreed to before the begin­
ning of the game.
Drexel gave up a four run
lead in the first game o f the
double header with UMBC on
April 7. After six innings, the
D ragons were enjoying a 4-2
lead, b u t a com eback by the
Retrievers tied the score at four.
Unable to score in the bo t­
tom o f the seventh, D rexel
forced th e gam e in to ex tra
innings, only to give up two
runs in the top of the n inth.
C h o b o t was h an d e d th e 6-4
loss.
Shortstop Jaime Long was a
force behind the bat, garnering
three hits, one RBI and one run
scored at four at-bats.

Wendi Colby went the distance

Maines gets
100th victo ry
Baseball head coach Don Maines earned his
100th victory at Drexel with the 3-2 victory
over the La Salle Explorers.
Tracy Marcus
Sports Editor
It was bound to happen. It is
hard to stay undefeated in any
sport. And it finally happened to
the baseball team. Hofstra hand­
ed Drexel its first North Atlantic
Conference loss of the season,
putting their record at 6-1.
This was their second straight
loss, as they lost to non-confer­
ence o p p o n en t V illanova on
April 6 in the second game of
the Liberty Bell Classic.
Head coach Don M aines
earned his 100th Drexel victory
with a come from behind win
over La Salle on April 10.
“We got a (good] pitching
perform ance from
[Rob]
Putnam,” said Maines. Putnam
picked up his th ird win and
pitched a complete game despite
a few close calls.
Several times the Explorers
had men in scoring position,
threatening to pull ahead, but
they were unable to do so.
W ith the score tied at one
apiece for four innings, La Salle
broke it open in the top of the
seventh with a two-out run.
Explorer shortstop Bob Ball
tried to add to the Explorer lead
but got tagged at home plate by
catcher lohn Shannon.
Left fielder Ryan started the
eighth inning with a double and
tied the score after an RBI single
by second basem an D ennis
Helkowski.
Shannon kept his seven game
h ittin g streak alive with a
ground rule double to lead off
the ninth inning. With the out­
field shallow, cen ter fielder
Kevin Fahy roped one over their
heads to score Shannon and put
the Dragons ahead for good, 32.
“The kids [showed] a lot of
guts. [They were able] to come
back a couple of times,” com ­
mented Maines.
In the past th ree seasons,
Drexel has become a force in the
NAC thanks to Maines. He has
turned the program around with
his tireless w ork ethic and
tougher schedule. Instead o f
having a su b -p a r season, his
teams are enjoying winning sea­
sons. Since joining the NAC,
they have been among the lead­
ers of the pack.
In Drexel’s only NAC loss of
this season, Hofstra overcame a
six-run deficit to defeat Drexel
11 -9. Drexel started their attack
early, scoring two quick runs in
the top of the first. They kept
going, pulling to a 6-0 lead after
a four-run fourth inning.
Hofstra answered with two
runs in the bottom of the fourth
and a n in e -ru n fifth in ning ,
in clu d in g a g ran d slam by
H o fstra ’s Jeff V allillo off
Drexel’s starting pitcher Kris
Doiron.
“They chipped away at us,”
said Maines. “We didn’t make
key plays. [At the same time], we
battled back.”
Down by five runs, Drexel
tried to make a comeback in the
top of the seventh. The Dragon’s
three runs were not enough to
overcom e the eig hth-place
Flying Dutchmen.

The Dragons improved their overall record to

Despite the 1-5 start for the
m e n ’s lacrosse team , the
D ragons have com e alive,
crushing St. Joseph’s 17-8 on
April 5 and squeezing past
University of M aryland Balti­
more County with a 12-11 vic­
tory on April 8.
Drexel’s domination over St.
Joseph’s began with six straight
goals in the first and second
quarters.
Brian Diener led the Dragon
attack, scoring two goals and
assisting on a n o th e r in the
timespan. It wasn’t until 5:05
into the second quarter, when
St. Josep h’s C hris C apozzoli
scored an unassisted goal, that
Drexel’s streak ended.
T hree m ore D rexel goals,
in clu d in g two by freshm an
attack Craig C aputo , set the
pace for the rem ainder of the
game, leaving Drexel with an
easy win over St. Joe’s.
The D ragon’s victory over
UMBC had a different feel to it
than the blowout of St. Joe’s.
Although UMBC came out
with an early 3-0 lead, sopho­
more midfielder Jake Bunting
was able to score at 2:24 into the

The softball team fell to 1216 after d efeating Lafayette
University and the University of
P ennsylvania and falling to
Towson State, Lehigh Univer­
sity
and
U n iv ersity
of
Maryland-Baltimore County.
“Overall I am pleased with
the progress [we’ve made] as a
team ,” said head coach Patti
O’Neill. “ [I have] seen a lot of
growth.”
The team grew a little more
against Towson State on April
11. Down by four runs in the
first game of the doubleheader,
the Dragons started to make a
comeback at the top of the fifth
and sixth innings, pulling to
within one run.
However, that was as close as
they would get as they lost 5-3.
Pitcher Wendi Colby pitched a
complete game, giving up three
earned runs off five hits.
The seco nd gam e w asn ’t
much better as a Drexel error
led to four unearned runs in the
fifth inning. Shanda Richer kept
the Dragons from being shut
o u t w ith a RBI single in the
fourth, bringing home Colby.
Pitcher Jeannette C hobot was
tagged with the 12-1 loss.
The E ngineers o f Lehigh
