Everyone signed up for the next tour, please gather here in the cen- ter of the Concourse. It is our pleasure to welcome you to the University of Massachu- setts at Amherst, and to the Index, your yearbook. Some of you will know these paths and pages well; for others, it will all seem a bit over- whelming. But for each of us, there are lessons to be learned in this journey. Let's begin our exploration of this picturesque campus. Nestled in the heart of the Pioneer Valley, just minutes away from the Con- necticut River, the University of Massachusetts could not be in a more idyllic location. Created as a Morrill Land Grant University in the 1800s, UMass has continued to grow and change with the times. Now a modern, diversified campus of over thirty thousand, the Univer- sity manages to maintain the diffi- cult balance between tradition and evolution. The New England autumn sees acres of trees roll out a red carpet of foliage for first year stu- dents. These new initiates wander eagerly throughout town, accompa- nied by parents dreading the emp- tiness they will feel after this change. The native population of Amherst is dwarfed by an enor- mous influx of people. The quaint downtown area fills with students looking for good food and compan- ionship. Academic life begins in earnest, with long study sessions at the Blue Wall broken up only by Friends or South Park. Chilly Sat- urdays are spent at football games, or snuggled up inside any one of the numerous dorms on campus. Students can choose from Pfiotography By: Top [eft: Aaron D. Ecdes Bottom [eft: Yvonne Tan^ Far ry fit- Yvonne Yanj Bottom right: Ba[arama He[ler one of five living areas: the mod- ern feel of Southwest, the quaint look of Northeast or Central, the honors dorms of Orchard Hill, or the suites of Sylvan. Each area holds its little secrets; Antonio's Pizza in Southwest, the beach vol- leyball courts in Northeast, the Meditation Garden in Central, the balconies in Orchard Hill, and na- ture trails surrounding Sylvan are just a few of the things you find when you live on campus. When it gets so cold that you don't feel like walking to visit your friends, all the dorms are equipped with capacity for e-mail and internet access. Or you could just call - did we mention that UMass has the second most powerful phone system in the nation, second only to that of the Pentagon? If another effect of the cold New England is a case of sniffles, the University has a fully trained medical staff at its Health Services to help you out. Perhaps when the weather gets warmer you will want to try out an intramural sport. You can be as competitive as you want to be about these matches, but most of us like to do them for the pure fun of the sport. Did someone in the back just ask a question about basket- ball? Why yes, Julius Erving did go to school here. Celebrities Bill Cosby, Natalie Cole, and Bill Pull- man also got their starts here. So many things about the school attract perspective stu- dents. Some come to play on na- tionally competitive sports teams, while others may come to play for a nationally recognized marching band. Some come to take part in a top-ranked Graduate Polymer Science Program, while others find the humanities more their thing. Some people come to ex- perience life in the Towers, while others are interested in the great outdoors. Most freshmen are fresh out of high school, but the University has many non-tradi- tional students. First generation Americans and first generation college students make their mark here. At times, things can look a little contradictory. The old and the new stand side by side. The Minuteman Marching Band travels from the Old Chapel to the ultra- modern Mullins Center. A re- searcher can find old manuscripts on one floor of the W.E.B. DuBois Library, and new computers wired to the Ethernet on another. Pedes- trians dodge roUerblades and cars to travel around the Campus Pond, to get to classes ranging in content from Greek mythology to botany to theories of relativity. It is the evolutionary process that the University has experienced, from the agricultural to industrial ages, that creates the richness of life here. Hopefully, your journey along the Main Streets and backroads of UMass will be a memo- rable experience. by Rebecca Anne Sozanski History of UMass • 1863 • 1867 • 1867 • 1867 1869 • 1871 Agricultural School formed Massachusetts Agricultural School formed Old South College, the first college dormitory at Mass "Aggie" was erected.

There re- ally is never a dull moment in the Valley and that is evident from the many events that have occurred in the past years. How many of these do you remember? 1994-1995 brought the en- trance of the Class of 1 998 and with it many changes and hopes for the future. Freshmen arrived on cam- pus on September 10, 1994, ner- vous and anxious about the begin- ning of their college careers. Did they realize then just how fast their years here would fly? Convocation, one of the first events that many freshmen attended on campus, was held that night in the MuUins Cen- ter. This would be one of the only times that the entire class would gather as a group. An inspiring though controversial speech was made by then SGA president Mirran Raphealy. Professor Albey Reiner invoked a Pink Panther theme in his speech and the Minuteman March- ing Band, The Power and Class of New England, was also introduced to many. In March, the Crossworlds Lecture Series was inaugurated with a conversation between Maya Angelou and Elie Wiesel in the Mullins Center. Also that month, the Men's Basketball Team made it to the Elite Eight, the furthest a UMass team had ever gone. Several months later, Blues Traveler along with Throwing Muses, Knuckle Sandwich and KRS-1 would take part in the Spring Concert on the Campus Center lawn. 1995-1996 brought the re- turn of first year students now sophomores, with a sense of the area and life at college, ready to impart their wisdom on the incom- ing class. UMass received national recognition with the opening of the new Silvio Conte Polymer Science Center and the renaming of Tower Library after W.E.B. DuBois. Cam- pus was in a frenzy of excitement as the Men's Basketball Team ad- vanced further in the NCAA Tour- nament, this time to the Final Four. Spring Concert was canceled due to budget constraints but tuition fees were decreased and admission standards raised. The FAC was the scene of many events including the Bell Curve debate, a reading by Allan Ginsburg, and the Second Crossworlds Lecture with Martina Navratilona and Dave Pallone. 1996-1997 found the Uni- versity under the new leadership of President William Bulger when President Hooker resigned. Cam- paign UMass was launched with a gala reception in the Mullins Cen- ter and the fifty year mark of the institution as a University was cel- ebrated. Senators Kerry and Kennedy spoke at a political rally in the Cape Cod Lounge and Dr. Ruth made an appearance at the FAC. Old Chapel was closed for renovations and an Honors College was proposed for the Amherst cam- pus. On March 4, 1997 a group of over 100 students took over the Controller's Office in the Goodell building demanding that the ad- ministration increase ALANA re- sources in part by working to raise the percentage of ALANA students. Spring Concert made a comeback with Trick Knee, 702, Jazz Mando- lin, G. Love and Special Sauce, and Redman. 1997-1998 has seen more changes come to campus. Several buildings were renovated including Mahar Auditorium and work was begun on restoring Old Chapel. 10 Coretta Scott King and Patricia Shroeder spoke as part of the on- going Crossworlds Series. Cam- paign UMass, led by the slogan, "To Dream, to Act, to Lead" has had stel- lar progress with their fundraising campaign. Several rallies on cam- pus including the LBGA's "Coming Out Rally" and the Republican Club's "Save Our Beer Rally" dem- onstrated the students' activism and enthusiasm. These events make UMass what it is today: a unique, diverse, ever changing community. Though many of us will leave this place we've called home for four years or more and go on to the next stage in our lives, we'll always remember the many events that shaped our time here. 6y Sara Hagenbuck 11996 ■ MEADOWLANDS Photograpks By: Upper Left: RacheCCe Joseph Lower Left: Anh To Upper Right: Aaron D. EccCes Far Right: Dave Finks Right: Yvonne Yang The Pioneer Valley is home to the Five College Consortium, which is comprised of Amherst, Hampshire, Mount Holyoke, and Smith Colleges and the University of Massachusetts Amherst. The Consortium, founded in 1965, grew out of cooperative ef- forts between the schools that dated back to the mid nineteenth century. An important factor in the Consor- tium is the close proximity of the cam- puses. The schools are within a twelve mile radius of each other and three of them are in Amherst while the other two are in neighboring towns. Amherst College, the oldest of the Five Colleges, has a prime loca- tion at the intersection of Routes 9 and 116. Amherst is considered one of the best liberal arts colleges in the country today. Traveling south down Route 116, you'll pass Hampshire College. Hampshire, founded in 1970 through the cooperation of the other four schools, allows students to de- sign their own course of study. Some eight miles further south is South Hadley, home to Mt. Holyoke College. Mt. Holyoke, one of the oldest lib- eral arts colleges for women in the nation, was founded in 1837 by the educator Mary Lyon. Smith College, located on Route 9 in the center of Northampton, is the largest college for women in the US. The University, which was originally founded in 1863 as a small state agricultural college, has matured into an institution of ten schools and colleges with 17,000 un- dergraduates and 5,800 graduate stu- dents. With more than 25,000 stu- dents from the Consortium living and studying in the area, there is always something going on.

The art museums and galleries at the schools host local and national exhibits each semes- ter. There are open theater audi- tions between the schools which bring together students from each of the campuses. The Five College Calendar, published each month, is the place to look for the daily activities of the Valley. The Five College Bus System run by the PVTA makes transit be- tween the colleges easier. Bus routes exist between UMass, Amherst, Hampshire, and Mt. Holyoke and the Minuteman Ex- press offers service to Smith. Some 5,000 students a year decide to take one or more of the nearly 6,000 courses that are avail- able at no extra charge. The Con- sortium offers joint programs in Astronomy, Dance, and Geology among others. Many other recip- rocal services are also available through the libraries and cafete- rias. The Consortium is a great opportunity for everyone in the Valley. It brings together students from the Five Colleges and allows them to share their experiences and learn from one another. dy Sara HagenSuch 13 How to Get to UMass The main streets and back roads that we have traveled to arrive at Umass have been vari- ous. They have not always been direct for sometimes we've taken a detour, a shortcut, or maybe we've even been lost once or twice along the way. We hail from many different back- grounds and geographic areas. Some of us come from small towns while others are from large cities. Most of us live in Massa- chusetts but 4,000 of us are from out of state. In fact all of the 50 states are r e p r e - sented as are 71 foreign countries by our student body. For some, Umass might not have been the first stop on the college highway - actually 4,000 transfer students comprise a large percentage of the 18,000 undergraduate population. Although we've had dif- ferent beginnings, we have come to call Umass home for four years. After graduation, we'll take the direction that we've re- ceived here and travel on to other main streets and back roads. But we'll always remember the road back to Umass!! The University of Massa- chusetts at Amherst is located in the scenic Pioneer Valley of West- ern Massachusetts, surrounded by the rolling hills of the Berk- shires and close to the gently flowing Connecticut River. Amherst is easily acces- sible by car, bus, plane or train. Boston is 90 miles to the east while New York City is 175 miles to the south. By Air Bradley International Air- port (Hartford/Springfield) is 45 miles south of the University while Logan International Airport (Boston) is 90 miles to the east. By Bus Peter Pan Bus Lines links the campus to Bradley and Logan airports as well as to points throughout the region. By Train AMTRAK serves Amherst and Springfield. From Boston: By car: Get on 1-90, the Massachusetts Turnpike, west- bound, and take exit 4 on to 1-91 north. Take exit 19 at Northampton and get on Route 9 east to Amherst. Once you have reached Amherst Center, take a left on to North Pleasant Street At the third set of lights, turn left on to Massachusetts Avenue.

P/ f^\A 15 Welcome to the University of Massachusetts at Amherst and the 1998 Index. This school has seen many changes In Its 135 year history: It has grown from a small state agricultural college Into a premier public Institution of higher learning. This is due to the efforts of the UMASS community: the alumni, faculty, students, staff, parents, and friends. Throughout the history of the University, we have been dedicated to providing every qualified student in the Commonwealth to a high quality and affordable education and we are committed always to teaching, research, and outreach in the service of society. Right now UMASS is poised on the edge of a Golden Age that will be characterized by the growth of communication, spirit, cooperation, the information era. International connectedness and diversity. Campaign UMASS under the theme "To Dream, To Act, To Lead" is an integral part of this transition. Continued research at our new Polymer Research Center will also be extremely Important as we move into the 21st century. Throughout your time here I hope that you have come to adopt the UMASS dream, the Idea that as a UMASS student and graduate you will venture beyond your horizons to make your dreams come true. The dream embraces all the aspirations of all the students, faculty, staff, and alumni to better their own lives and the lives of others around them. The dream is a chance for us all to realize our noblest ambitions. After our alumna astronaut Cady Coleman returned to earth from a mission aboard the Space Shuttle, I made a promise for her next mission: "We shall light up every light on this great and extensive campus so that you will always know your way home." This promise also holds true for every UMASS alum who pushes the limits in search of their dream. Good luck to the Graduates of the Class of 1998! Yours Sincerely, ^^-^ ?) c-a^r-t-A David K.

GUIDE TO — Theodore Geisell UMASS X-^ r " y.% .Campus Although simple, the naming of the Lincoln Campus Center could not have been more apt. Indeed, the building not only lies at the geographical center of the University, but in many ways forms a symbolic meeting point for the many paths that UMass students travel. No matter how different our lives may be, the main streets and back roads of Amherst lead all of us to the Campus Center. At times, it is the place "where every- body knows your name". At others, it is the epitome of the intense anonymity that a large University can breed. This is a little scary sometimes, but a relief at others, when the soap op "If the weather is not cooperating with plans for an outdoor expedi- tion, or if personal safety is a concern, the Campus Center pro- vides an excellent place to take one's thoughts for a stroll." the weather is not cooperating with plans for an outdoor expe- dition, or if personal safety is a concern, the Campus Center pro- vides an excellent place to take one's thoughts for a stroll. The atmosphere of the Concourse quickly lulls one into a contemplative state. The shiny stone floor reflects the light emerging from between the wooden planks on the ceiling, creating a halo around every- thing. The dull, unfinished con- crete walls give the overwhelm- ing impression of grayness. During the daytime, ven- dors and RSOs line the walk- way, and the place fairly ex- plodes with ac- tivity. A per- son could pass an entire day people-watch- ing and never get bored. At era that is college-life becomes too intense. It is the perfect com- bination of time and place to just think. It seems that college stu- dents are natural wanderers. Sometimes the urge just hits us, that urge to wander aimlessly and try to make sense of our lives. Sometimes it is a need born of confusion, sometimes of sadness, and sometimes of hap- piness. Other times, it is that dis- turbing, oh-my-God-I-am-al- most-an-adult sensation that makes us just need to walk. If night, the only sound is the oc- casionally lonely click of heels or squeak of sneakers. Then is a good time to just sit and think without having to worry about being nagged by your roommate. Wandering into the Bluewall (deceptively named) one cannot help but ponder the purpose of the odd, free-stand- ing cement walls scattered throughout the establishment. The smell of coffee and home- made sugar cookies create a comfy atmosphere; of all the study spots on campus, the ■HHK ' IHItf wm hi'' ^ ^^^^L ii ^wB^r B h^ Tamar W. Carroll Yvonne Yang DID YOU KNOW? The Campus Center is home to the only place left on campus where alcohol can be purchased.. .the Top of Campus resturaunt. The TOC Resturaunt also is one of two places on campus where cable television can be seen on campus. Dave Finks 19 Campus Center Bluewall probably has the nicest feel to it. The perfect amount of background noise provides the right atmosphere to tackle eco- nomics or biology. Study groups talk medical ethics while loners eat bagels and read the Colle- gian. From the Bluewall, an ex- plorer on the UMass campus can take the escalator downstairs, to get some cash from the BankBoston or Fleet machine. There is usually an enriching ac- tivity taking place in the Cam- pus Center Auditorium. Armies of commuter students camp out on the couches near the Colle- gian and WMUA headquarters. At all hours, bodies sprawl them- selves on maroon couches, try- ing to get comfortable between wooden armrests. A person can check out some material from the sci-fi li- brary between classes, and then hop onto the elevator and "beam" upstairs. En route to the Top of the Campus, a traveler passes by the floors of hotel rooms. A nice place not only for visitors to stay, but for students to escape to for a discounted rate. Everyone needs a mini-vacation. Located on the eleventh floor, the TOC is an excellent place to watch the world go by. The images are particularly com- pelling on nights when the grass is covered with snow, and the black walkways criss-cross the whiteness. It is kind of like an old black and white movie. People do the funniest things when they think no one is look- ing. If, while watching, the sudden need to buy earplugs, a poster to cover the hole your roommate put in the wall, or a birthday present for Grammy strikes, hop onto the elevator and head back down to the Concourse level. Off to the Campus Store, BiSX'ib^^^'^iO .'*'Vk>»NV«fda Tamar Carroll where UMass students can find anything they would ever need while in college. The prices are only slightly inflated, and the service comes with a smile. Af- ter running errands, a nice way to spend any leftover cash is to buy flowers for yourself; remem- ber, you are worth it! There are so many things to overwhelm the senses in the Campus Center. The smells ema- nating from the Coffee Shop, the whiteness of the stacks of news- papers near the Info Desk, the snatches of different languages mixing into warm background noise. The sound of shoes. They say that the strongest memories people carry with them are those that they can connect to one of the five senses. Inside the enormous ce- ment structure that forms the centerpiece of our campus, many nooks and crannies are just wait- ing to be explored. No student here should graduate without discovering each and every one of them. by Rebecca Anne Sozanski Dave Finks 21 student Union "S i Aaron D. Eccles The Student Union has the look of a Massachu- setts public school building. Those who have attended the Commonwealth's public schools for their entire lives can imme- diately recognize these struc- tures. Constructed in the mid- 1950s, at the peak of the Baby Boom years, they seem to be a mainstay in every town. An im- posing pile of granite and marble, the UMass Student Union is al- ways bustling with activity. The best way to get to the Stu- dent Union (hereafter to be denoted simply as SU) is definitely through the tunnel from the Campus Center. One can grab a pack of Cheetos from the vending machine and journey through the tunnel o' flyers and posters. Halfway through, a person can pick up a Peter Pan bus ticket, or get a haircut. Mortal Combat beckons from the arcade. It has been rumored that Freddy Krueger lives in the boiler room alongside the arcade. Strange vibrations seem to come from the site, and people have been known to wander into the back stairways and never return. Upon emerging from the "Whether it is writ- ing letters to demand the release of political prisoners, campaigning for juice bottle depos- its, or just trying to get a raise for our over- worked TAs, the UMass community does not just sit around and watch the world go by." tunnel unharmed, the air be-- comes laden with the tempting- aroma of fast food in the Hatch. . If one prefers more wholesome ! fare, Earthfoods serves vegetar-- ian lunches, and People's Market! sells socially conscious munchies. . Or, it you just want a Snapple tO) wash down those Cheetos, headl to the Munchie Store. The SU offers the UMass i community some alternatives to i just hanging out. Students cam study in between classes in the: Cape Cod or C o 1 o n i a II Lounges. Many students spend free time playing pool. Also, the Craft Center offers great opportunites to make unique pre- sents. This op- tion is particu- larly appreci- ated around the holidays when money is tight. One of the places in which all students find themselves at some point in their UMass careers is the Student Union Ballroom. A wide array of events occur here each semester, from the Great UMass Ski Sale to the Rocky Hor- ror Picture Show to the Maceo Parker concert. The art gallery down the hall and the Cannabis Reform Society Office both offer other alternatives for students to expand their horizons. 22 Aaron U. Lccles 23 The upstairs of the SU is a mecca of activism. Students gather in tiny offices, mak- ing plans to change the world. Whether it is writing let- ters to demand the release of political prisoners, campaigning for juice bottle deposits, or just trying to get a raise for our over- worked TAs, the UMASS commu- nity does not just sit around and watch the world go by. We are active agents in shaping our re- ality. This socially conscious en- vironment led to Mother Jones recognizing the University as one of the most socially conscious schools in the nation. There are over two hun- dred Registered Student Organi- zations on campus. Not all of them are directed at social action. Some are involved in the arts, others with outdoor activities, religion, and culture. There is a niche that every student can fill. It is fun just to climb the SU stairs and stand up on the Alexander Koramilas balcony, watching the streams of students going in and out. The air smells strongly of ink from Campus Design and Copy and the noise of RSOs trying to conduct business fills the air. With so many different interest groups on campus, space has become a major issue. The push is on to raise funds to expand or rebuild the SU building, to better meet the needs of those on campus. Certainly the new SU will be more modern and spacious than the old one. But students who were on the campus dur- ing the 1997-98 school year will have the happiest of memories possible to carry with them of the old SU. The SU is clearly representative of the UMASS campus which is full of opti- mism, great expectations, activ- ism, debate, ambition, commu- nity spirit and a can-do attitude. by Rebecca Anne Sozanski Yvonne Yang 24 Aaron D.

For some the answer may be "Every day" while for oth- ers it may be "Seldom" or "Never." Either way the library is a central part of UMass. From miles around the W.E.B Dubois Library can be seen in the sky- line as a beacon to the Amherst campus. Comprised of 2 8 floors, it was at one time the tallest library in the world, un- til the University of Texas at Austin added on two floors. Built in 1972, as a re- placement to the Goodell Library, it was originally named the Tower Library until two years ago. Hold- ings in the library include more than four million books, periodicals and other docu- ments plus an extensive collec- tion of approximately one million microfilms. The whereabouts of these resources can be found through the computer catalog, located on the main floor, which is also linked with the other colleges and institutions. Once you learn the location of the item, the elevators will whisk you off to the floor of your destination. Interlibrary loan also makes it easy to obtain a book from one of the other schools. Other computer data- bases such as Infotrac and Eric facilitate research. In addition several computers linked to Netscape are available for stu- dent use. The large microfilm department is also housed on the main floor complete with mi- crofilm readers. The Reference Librarians are always there to answer a question or point you in the right direction. Many stu- dents use the main floor as a study area, often spending hours poring over their books. Study car- rels are also avail- able on each of the floors. The second floor houses current and bound peri- odicals while the third floor is home to the re- serve and audio- visual depart- ment. The sev- enth floor is al- ways a busy place since many people utilize the computer labs and e-mail termi- nals there. Often many students can be found waiting patiently in line to use a terminal to keep in touch with friends and fam- ily. The labs are also important for students who need to write papers and computer science students who need to work on programs. The tenth floor of the li- brary has the Learning Resource Center, which began in the Fall of 1994. The Center provides tutoring and resources to stu- dents who need some help with their classes. Assistance is com- monly requested in the areas of math, sciences, and foreign lan- guages. The LRC also has instruc- tion programs for certain courses, a learning laboratory with computers and video-aided instruction, testing for skill de- ficiencies, and study skills courses and workshops. The Music Library com- plete with listening facilities, re- 26 cordings and reference materials is located on the 19th floor. The archives department found on the 25th floor contains documen- tation of the history of the Uni- versity. In addition rare books and manuscripts are secured there. The best view of the sur- rounding area can be seen from the 23rd floor. There the beau- tiful countryside, picturesque rolling hills, and entire campus can be viewed. People from all over the world are impressed and aston- ished by the physical size of our library, let alone by its contents. It is a great place to study, do research, receive tutoring, uti- lize the computer facilities or learn more about the history of the university. It definitely has many resources that students should use to their advantage. by Sara Hagenbuch Tamar Carroll Aaron D.

Mullins Center began as an idea in the mind of the late Representative William Mullins of Ludlow in 1985. The complex which cost nearly $50 million to complete and has a capacity of 10,000, opened in January 1993. The first ticketed event was on February 4, 1993 with a basketball game against West Virginia. Since then the arena has gained national expo- sure from the many basketball games events big name concerts that have occurred there. One of the first events that freshmen may have at- tended at Mullins was Convoca- tion, an introduction to the Uni- versity and the arena. Some may have shopped at the yearly J. Crew sale there or taken the bus down to go ice skating at the Olympic size ice rink. In addition each spring Food Services hosts Tour America at Mullins. Booths are set up across the floor and each part of the country is represented through different ethnic foods. Many have probably ven- tured to Mullins for one of the many concerts that were hosted there such as: Elton John, Smash- ing Pumpkins, Phish, Live, Count- ing Crows, Alanis Morrissette, Dave Matthews, 311, Stone Temple Pilots, Melissa Etheridge, Indigo Girls, James Taylor, and Natalie Merchant just to name a few. There isn't a bad seat in the house and the acoustics are first class. In the past few years Mullins has become a well known venue in the western part of the state. This is also due to the exposure that it has gained from the many na- tionally tele- vised basket- ball games that take place there. An immense amount of j^Si!

The cheerlead- ers, Minuteman, and the Hoop Band are also important factors in the atmosphere. The seasorti starts with the legendary Mid-, night Madness, the first time that the team is officially allowed to practice to- gether. Stu- dents come to Mullins, ready to cheer on their team for the up- coming sea- son. Th( banners tha adorn the rafters illus- trate the suc-| cess of past years anc players.

The Womens Basketball Team and the Mens hockey team also play their home games at MuUins. The completion of the arena brought the return of the hockey program which had been dormant for fifteen years. In addition it also brought the in- troduction of the Womens Hockey Club. The diversity of the events at the arena require that the staff have the changeovers between games or concerts down to an exact science. Often the pressure is on as they race against the clock to change the parquet to ice and then to con- cert seating. The crew of between 40 to 60 can have the arena set up for any event in three hours. Whether you attended a sports game, concert, or gala event, the different facets of the center are definitely evident. Many people work daily to keep Mullins in beautiful shape. The William D. Mullins Center is a first class facility that makes the UMASS community proud, by Sara Hagenbuch Kerry Brennan Rachelle Joseph 31 Boydfen an Gyms Boyden and Totman gyms are at the heart of UMass athletics. Every day, thousands of students pass through their doors to work out, take a gym class or play their fa- vorite sport. The largest of the three gyms on campus, Boyden is home to six basket- ball courts, a padded wrestling/martial arts room, a regula- tion-size indoor pool, four racquetball courts and a gymnas- tics room. Varsity athletes come here to work out in the weight room and visit their coaches' offices, located on the second and basement floors. Fitness buffs also get their exercise in at Boyden, at the open weight room or at the Bodyshop, down in the base- ment. Members of the Bodyshop can hop on the treadmills, stationary bikes, stairmasters and Nordic Tracks for some cardiovascu- lar activity before hitting the Nautilus equipment and free weights to tone and strengthen their muscles. Boyden is the home of the UMass Intramural Pro- gram, which runs leagues and tournaments for recreational Kerry athletes on the UMass campus. Every year, 6,000 or so stu- dents, faculty and staff par- ticipate in intramural sports, which range from ultimate frisbee and walleyball (a hy- brid of volleyball and racquet- ball) to badminton and ice hockey. Men's, women's, and co-ed teams draw enthusiastic players from all over campus in pursuit of the coveted in- tramural championship title. The most popular fall semes- ter sports are soccer, flag foot- ball and volleyball, while bas- ketball and Softball at- tract the most athletes in the spring. Many of the University's physical education classes meet in Boyden. Each semes- ter, 2,500 undergradu- ates take a one credit P.E. class. Over 90 dif- ferent courses are of- fered, in subjects which range from mountain biking and scuba diving to self defense and step aerobics. Some of the classes, such as fencing and social dance, are also taught at Totman Gymnasium. Located on the opposite end of campus from Boyden, Totman is home to two basket- ball courts, a dance studio, an indoor pool and weight rooms. It is also the site of another of the five Bodyshops and the site of the crew team's water simulator. by Tamar Carroll Brennan 32 > Kerry Brennan 33 Sylvan, located on the north east side of cam- pus, is known by its residents as "The City on tne Hill." Nestled among the trees, it draws its name from the forest like environment that sur- rounds it. Built in the 1970's, it is the newest of the residential areas and the only one to offer the unique feature of suite style living. The three buildings of Cashin, Brown, and McNamera, each house 64 suites, each of which is either all male or all fe- male. Each suite is comprised of four or five bedrooms, a bath- room, and a common lounge. No more than eight students can reside in a suite and this affords students an opportunity to build close living relationships within small groups. In addition there are often many singles available in Sylvan. McNamera also ac- commodates students 23 years and older by housing a non tra- ditional Special Interest Program. The Sylvan Area Govern- ment located in Cashin Basement is responsible for developing programs and activities to serve are residents. Also located in the basement of Cashin is the Sylvan Cultural Center, one of eight resi- dential cultural centers on cam- pus. It hosts study halls, pro- vides space for programming, and accommodates residents academically as well as socially. This small cultural center affords the residents with a larger sense of community. The Sylvan Snack Bar, found in the basement of McNamera, provides students with the opportunity to become involved with business. It deliv- ers food to rooms and also pro- vides students with a good rea- son for a study break. During Fall 1997, Sylvan residents participated in a scaven- ger hunt to benefit the Amherst Survival Center. The hunt, which was organized by Resident Assis- tants, was an effort to unify the area, help students learn about the campus and help the community. Participants, who paid an entry fee of a canned good, scoured campus for clues. They ventured to such spots as Whitmore, the Bluewall, and the Greenough Snack Bar. They all had a good time and their ef- forts benefited a good cause. Many kitchenettes, pool tables and study spaces are located in common areas throughout Syl- van. In addition. Sylvan is in close proximity to the tennis courts and Totman Gym for sports enthusiasts. The neighboring area also provides hiking and biking options. By Sara HagenSucfi ^ ■r theast Nine small traditionally styled buildings form a quadrangle around a large grassy area in the Northeast Residential Area. Named for its location on cam- pus, Northeast is the oldest of the living areas on campus. The resi- dence halls that make up this area: Knowlton, Hamlin, Crabtree, Leach, Mary Lyon, Dwight, Thatcher, Lewis, and Johnson, are generally smaller than those in most of the other areas. This creates an atmo- sphere where it is easy to get to know those with whom you are living. Many students may have been introduced to Northeast and its amenities when they stayed there for New Students Orientation over the summer. A volleyball court, located between Crabtree and Leach, draws many students out to play in the sand filled court when the weather is nice. Northeast is close to every- thing; the Worcester Dining Com- mon and Munchy Store, Totman Gym and playing fields, and most importantly campus. w Northeast is home to many Special Interest Programs. Knowlton and Hamlin both have single sex housing which dates back to the beginning of North- east in the 1930's. In addition Knowlton houses the United Asian Resource Learning Center which provides support and multicultural programming for all interested students. In addi- tion it offers academic advising, free tutoring, personal and ca- reer counseling, to Asian and Asian American students. Also, the UARLC's "Acheivement Pro- gram" is a support system for first year students which helps them to develop stronger English language and academic skills. The Asian American Spe- cial Interest Program, which was started by Asian American activ- ists to give fellow students of Asian descent a living and learn- ing environment conducive to all areas of growth, is housed on the second floor of Dwight. In addi- tion the program strives to end racism and discrimination and support the empowerment of Asian American students at UMass. The 2 in 20 Floor, which was created to be a supportive atmosphere for gays, lesbians, bisexuals, and their heterosexual allies, is located on the fourth floor of Mary Lyon. Named for the statistic that one out of ev- ery ten people is homosexual, the floor has found that community involvement has contributed to its success. The Crabtree Cluster is home to the Residential Engi- neering Program and the area computer center. The close prox- imity to the Lederle Graduate Research Center and the College of Engineering makes Northeast a prime loca- tion for this program. Thatcher is known as the Interna- tional Dorm since it is comprised of the For- eign Language Program and International Pro- gram. Students study- ing German, Japanese, French, and Spanish reside there along with students affiliated with the International Pro- grams. A requirement to live in the dorm is enrollment in an inter- national colloquium or a language class that meets once a week. It also houses the Max Kade German Studies Center and the Anacoana Caribbean Cultural Center. This unique en- vironment fosters a very diverse atmosphere. Every Halloween North- east hosts trick or treating for youths living in Springfield and Holyoke. This offers a safe, fun alternative to trick or treating. Residents go all out decorating their doors and hallways and this event brings about a stronger sense of community throughout the area. Northeast is governed by NEAG or Northeast Area Govern- ment, which has offices in Johnson. The officers work to organize activities and better the general welfare of the residents living in the area. Some events that they put on are a semi-for- mal and the Pigout during Spring Weekend. Northeast has a definite community atmosphere and of- fers something for everyone! 6y Sara HagcnBuck i'ltLHiitjiupliy by. Uft: Aaron D.

"No way!," claims Derek Thompson, a sophomore biology major and two-year Orchard Hill Resident. "People here do a lot more partying that they give us credit for." 1,300 UMass undergradu- ates, both studiers and partiers alike, call Orchard Hill Residen- tial Area home. Comprised of four, seven-story red brick and concrete buildings. Orchard Hill is located on the East side of cam- pus, up the infamous hill from lower Central. The four buildings of Or- chard Hill - Field, Grayson, Webster, and Dickinson - form a square around the bowl, the Hill's circular version of a grassy quad. Field and Grayson, the honors dorms, are connected, while Webster and Dickinson are free- standing. The area takes its name from the nearby apple orchard, located behind Field, which gifts residents with sweet pink blos- soms every spring. East Pleasant Street borders Orchard Hill to the rear, and offers residents a short- cut to Amherst center. A wooded 1 grove and field lie to the North of Orchard Hill, the site of the astronomy department's obser- vatory. Trails through the woods provide a shortcut to Sylvam Residential Area and a serve as^ a popular jogging route. In addition to some great! views. Orchard Hill residentss enjoy arguably the best parkings on campus, with a purple lot ini front of Dickinson and Field andj another large purple lot up thes hill behind Field and Grayson. Although Field andJ Grayson are the residential! dorms of the Honors program, honors students are not required to live there, and non-honors students actually make up thei majority (about sixty percent) of I residents in those buildings. The '60s-era architecture and interior concrete block walls of Orchard Hill don't win manyy style points, but residents gives kudos to the cubbies (walk-ini closets set aside from the maim room) and balconies, two ofl which are located on every floor. "1 like the way the cubby y separates your personal spacet I from your general living space," Thompson said. "You don't get that with a z-room." Every floor has a balcony located off each of its lounges, one facing the bowl and one fac- ing away. The balconies are popular places to sunbathe, re- lax and chat with friends, smoke a butt, or get some reading done. "I think it's a pretty at- tractive place with the balco- nies," said Aaron Storoy, a sopho- more communications major and two year Orchard Hill resident. "I like looking at the mountains and it's nice to be able to get outside without leaving your floor." "There's definitely some- thing to be said for the balconies and the lounges," said Brett McCoy, a junior sociology major and first-time Orchard Hill resi- dent. "It's great to just smoke a butt and chill with your friends." The balconies are also central to bowl wars, some of the most memorable occasions of the year on the Hill. During bowl wars, which most often take place on Thurs- day, Friday or Saturday nights in the fall or spring, whole build- ings gather on their bowl-side balconies to challenge each other in shouting matches. "It's like the whole quad turning into Animal House," Th- ompson said. "Bowl wars are the only time the whole entire building gets together," an other Orchard Hill resident added. Hill residents also look forward to rainy nights in warm weather, when many of them take to the bowl for mud wres- tling. The most free-spirited shed their clothes and streak the bowl, to the cheers of the more timid souls watching from the balconies. Winter storms also pro- vide excitement for Bowl resi- dents, who enjoy high-speed sledding down the hill to Central and challenging the other resi- dential areas to snowball battles. What do Hill residents do when they're hungry? Anything to avoid the D.C.. Sweets & More, a student-run snack shop located on the first floor of Field, is a popular alternative to the Din- ing Commons. Open weeknights. Sweets and More offers ice cream, brownies, cookies, nachos, grill cheeses and other treats to residents with the munchies. The downside of life on the Hill? The hill itself, everyone agrees. "The worst part is having to walk up the hill every day," said Chris Bickel, a sophomore computer science major. With most students making anywhere from one to ten trips up the hill a day. Orchard Hill could be the most physically fit living area on campus. 6r Tamar W. Carroll Pftotograpky By: Top Left: Aaron D. Eccles Bottom Left: Aaron D.

It also( holds the distinction of being the( second oldest of the five areas,; newer than only Northeast. Built at a time when architects de-' signed with function and appear-' ance in mind, the brick and white i wooden trim of the buildings en-i hances the atmosphere. Thei buildings are not laid out in im-i personal, over-planned grids;; rather, they seem to have spread: along the hillside naturally over time, like ivy engulfing the side^ of a building. The Hill is central to the definition of Central. There are those who live at the bottom, and; those who live on the top. The^ former view the latter as insane, while the latter view the former as weak. Although well-loved: when the time to go sledding oni lunch trays rolls around, the rest, of the year the hill is a mortal enemy to many. Some residents use the daily climbs as a substi-i tute for Stairmaster, while others opt for the bus. At the foot of the hill lies the lovely Franklin Dining Com- mons. Complaining about the food at Franklin ranks second only to complaining about the hill as the favorite pastime of Central residents. However, it should not be deemed a totally hated place. A student has yet to die from eating there, and most students have many fond memories of passing countless hours in the DC with friends, making fun of people and sculpt- ing statues out of mashed pota- toes. One level above Franklin, a little way up the hill, the resi- dence halls begin. Brett, Wheeler, and Gorman stand in a nice, neat row. Each has some claim to fame. Starting in fall of 1997, Brett will offer nine months of housing. This fills a need for those students living too far away to travel home over Thanksgiv- ing break, or who need a place to stay over Wintersession. Wheeler is home to the Wheeler Gallery, a place where both as- piring students and local artists can display work. Gorman is home to NU- ANCE, a resi- dential pro- gram that works with stu- dents of color to develop leadership skills. After a steep climb the next stop is the Baker, Chadbourne, Greenough cluster. Many a party has rocked the halls of Baker. The Green-0 Snackbar, a student-run coopera- tive, helps to keep Central resi- dents well-fed with reasonably priced munchies and subs. Greenough is also home to the only two wellness floors on cam- pus. These enclaves of the sub- stance-free attract a wide variety of students, from the straight- edge/ hard-core types to those wanting a studious environment to those facing personal issues with substance abuse. Chadbourne is home to the Josephine White Eagle Native American Cultural Center. It is also home to the Native Ameri- can floor, where Native American students and those who wish to learn more about Native Ameri- can culture and history can learn together in a respectful, open- minded atmosphere.

Now in third place in that category. Southwest is a popular living choice among un- dergradu- ates. Built in the 1970's, complete with five 22 story high rise towers and eleven low rise resi- d e n c e s , Southwest, is really a city inside a city. To start, the area is equipped with Berk- shire and Hampshire dining halls, Hampden I Theater, and a munchie store. On Friday and Saturday ^ nights, Antonio's Pizza opens up shop next to the Munchie Store to add to the already diverse se- lection of delectables available in Southwest. Many other amenities make it easy for stu- dents to exist without ever leaving the area. Accordingly, the area has an urban flavor and community spirit that is lively and active. Many special housing options may be found in Southwest. The Harambee Pro- gram, located in Coolidge, aims to foster the academic success of students of African de- scent through the cel- ebration and study of African history and cul- ture. Patterson houses the "Universe through the University" pro- gram for freshmen who have yet to decide on a major. The program in- cludes courses in the dorm, mentors, and special academic coun- seling. Southwest is also known for the TAP Pro- gram or Talent Ad- vancement Program. TAP offers incoming students the opportu- nity to live, learn, and study with fellow stu- dents in the same ma- jor. Programs in the natural sciences and mathematics are located while those as- sociated with Psychology are found in John Adams. The Malcolm X Cultural Cen- ter and the Center for Di- versity and Development are also lo- cated in the area. Prince- Crampton houses many of the gradu- ate students and holds pro- grams geared to that popula- . i tion of cam- pus. In addi- tion. The Stonewall Cen- ter, home of the Les- bian, Gay, Bisexual, and Transgender Resource Center, is also found in Crampton. The Center was one of the first of its kind in the country and many other col- leges used it as a model for their programs. It has a large library, and sponsors many educa- tional and cultural events and a volunteer Speakers Bureau. Southwest Area Week, which occurs in early May, is a fun time for all with many cook- outs, parties, and dif- ferent DJs. playing eclectic music to the masses. The infamous Towers Wars and bas- ketball games at all hours at the Horse Shoe are also very symbolic of Southwest. Whether you lived in Southwest for several semesters or just visited a friend there for a night, you know full well that Southwest is truly the city that never sleeps. 6v Sara Haijenbucfi '0k Photcijraphy 6y: Upper Far Right: Aaron D.

The different modes of transporta- tion wfiich we use to travel daily are as var- ied as the student body, but they are very important since they get us to class, work, meet- ings, and events. Many | of us I who '= live on • . campus opt for the ever . /• popular shoe . leather ex- , '' ' press, ' ; •-.•; ' other- " wise : known as walking, to take us to campus. The campus is fairly large but one can travel from one end of it to the other in less than twenty minutes. Unless of course your alarm clock doesn't go off and you are forced to run to class to make it in time. Others who are looking for a faster way to class may choose to take their ever trusty bike or better yet the new pair of rollerblades. Just be sure to watch out for those pedestrians that you might encounter. The skateboard is still a favorite mode of trans- port for several of our classmates who can be seen flying past at incredible rates of speed. For those on cam- pus, who are not in the mood to walk up that hill one more day or from the School of Edu- cation back to South- west, the Campus Shuttle run by the PVTA offers a friendly and free alternative.

It is quite disheartening to be waiting at the mall af- ter a late movie for a bus back to campus, only to find that the present bus is overloaded and won't accept any more passen- gers and the next bus won't be coming for an- other hour. You must consider the options, wait for an hour in the freez- ing cold hoping that the next bus isn't also over loaded or start the trek down Route 9 back to campus?? Then, of course there are the infamous weekend night bus rides which are complete with police of- ficer chaperones, who make sure that none of the party goers gets too out of hand. As much as we may complain about the PVTA , it is a saving grace and a resource that we definitely take for granted. Besides who hasn't come away form a bus ride, without a good story for the memory books? Fortunately for UMass students, the PVTA is "going their way." Many students also opt to combine several different forms of trans- portation in their daily commute. Some may catch a ride to campus with a housemate in the morning, only to hop the bus on their return home. Others may ride their bike in, but decide to use the PVTA's bicycle racks for their journey back. Still there are others who rtation cont. rollerblade to class, but keep their running shoes tied safely to their back- pack in case they need to employ another mode of transport throughout their day. Our different modes of transportation are im- portant pieces of our col- lege life. They have not only taken us back and forth to campus for four years, but also on trips to home and other parts of the country. They are in- strumental in our explo- ration of the many main streets and back roads of jthe area.

North Pleasant Street, which be- gins in town at the inter- section of Main and Am- ity Streets, travels out of town, straight through campus and into North Amherst. The close prox- imity to campus together with the country setting, draws many to call North Amherst home. North Vil- lage, Presidential, Crestview, Hobart, Gilreath Manor, Pufton, Townehouse, Brandywine and various other apart- ments house many stu- dents and of course off campus parties. Many a Friday or Sat- urday night, students can be seen piling on to the PVTA buses that are headed north to the par- ties that await them. In fact, Hobart Apartments is now well known for the Annual Hobart Hoe-down, which occurs early in May and finds many students partying through the day and night. North Amherst Cen- ter, a picture postcard set- ting, is framed by the Black Walnut Inn, the North Congregational Church and the North Amherst Public Library. Daisy's Restaurant, a popular brunch destina- tion for students, is also located at the center. North Pleasant Street, which traverses a large part of Amherst, ends at the lights at North Amherst Center. A left turn at the lights will take you past Townehouse Apartments and then to Route 116. Proceeding straight at the lights onto Sunderland Road takes you past the tobacco barns and also to Route 116 and towards the rolling hills of Sunderland and destina- tions north. Back at the North Amherst Center, if you bear right onto Route 63, you'll eventually find yourself in Millers Falls or Northfield. At the cross- roads also lies several shops such as Cumberland Farms, Superior Pizza, and Bank Boston, which pro- vide all the conveniences that a college student needs. A right onto Pine Street will take you into a more residential area of Amherst. There students escape to peaceful settings when the frenzy of cam- pus life gets to be too much to handle. Puffers Pond and Mill River Rec- reational Area offer many opportunities for relax- ation or the chance to stay fit. Hiking and marked trails can be found in ad- dition to swimming areas and tennis and ball field facilities. In the distance the skyscrapers of UMass are visible, creating an in- teresting juxtaposition be- tween rural and urban set- tings. Amherst is a unique town for it still retains all the small town charm de- spite the infusion of thou- sands of college students every year. As residents of Amherst for the past four years, we have come to travel many of its main streets and back roads. By Sara HagcnBucft PftotograpBy by: Upper Left: Aaron D. Ecdes Lower Left: Aaron D.

Still, this quaint New England town man- ages to offer Five College student a wide variety of experiences, starting early in the morning and ex- tending late into the night. When people discuss the town of Amherst, they are generally referring to the town's center, which falls along the South Amherst bus route. The southernmost point of this route extends nearly into the rows of corn and cows in Hadley, passing picturesque Amherst Col- lege and apartment com- plexes like Mill Valley and The Boulders. But the most popular destination of any bus goer is by far the town center. In Amherst center, the coffee begins to per- colate early at places like Rao's and Starbuck's, as the locals put their chil- dren on buses and hurry to work. The average UMass student gets rolling a little later in the morn- ing. Brueger's and the Classe Cafe are popular locations to enjoy the most important meal of the day (after stop at the Fleet or BayBank ATM). Parking is at a pre- mium, especially on the weekends. Cars vie for coveted metered spaces along the main drag and spaces in the Boltwood lot. For the unlucky, there is always the public parking lot behind CVS. It seems that a town parking ga- rage is proposed every year, but it has yet to be- come a reality. Downtown is the per- fect place to engage in America's favorite pas- time—spending money. As in any decent college town, tiny bookstores compete for intellectuals' disposable income. Mu- sic is also big business; shoppers can frequent a chain like Newbury Com- ics or a more unique es- tablishment like For the Record. Zanna's offers students the opportunity to be boutique trendy, while the Salvation Army Thrift Store offers them the opportunity to be trendy in a more socially conscious way. There are lots of places to purchase a new look, from hair to toe nails. A person can take yoga or investigate exactly what sort of stuff is sold in 1 Used to Be a Tree. Not all experiences in town have a price tag attached. There are plenty of places of wor- ship in which a person can look for God. Amherst Common is an excellent place to frolic, and the fountain across from the Town Hall is an excellent place to make wishes. Just up the road is the Emily Dickinson Homestead, for when the mood to become more cultured strikes. Commu- nity outreach projects, such as Not Bread Alone, offer students a chance to give something back to the community. Dinner-time pre- sents a dizzying array of choices. Cuisine from around the world is avail- able in just a few blocks: Italian at Pinnochio's, Tex-Mex at Bueno y Sano, Malaysian at Rasa Sayung, Chinese at Panda East, and Indian at New India, to name just a few. Places like the Raw Carrot and Amber Waves cook up a storm for a relatively large vegetarian popula- tion. Places like Claudia's, the Black Sheep, and Bart's offer dessert. And, of course, the old stand- by is always Antonio's Pizza by the Slice. For those who are of age, Amherst boasts a small but decent bar scene, with such estab- lishments as the Spoke, Charlie's, and the Pub. After the bars close, dorm residents can stumble back to campus or hop on any bus to Sunderland or North Amherst (just do not forget to get off). With such a wide range of activities and ex- periences concentrated into such a small area, it is not surprising that Amherst center forms a vital part of the UMass ex- perience. When remem- bering old college days, many UMass graduates will have fond memories of the people and places that compose this slice of small town America. by Rebecca Anne Sozanski Photocjrapfiy Sy: Upper Left: Aaron D.

For some people, the bustle of the Amherst area can make even backroads feel too crowded. Every so often this crowd needs to get away from it all and escape to where civiliza- tion is just a speck in the wilderness. No matter where this may be, chances are getting there means a trip through Sunderland. Driving down Route 116 toward the hill towns, it is striking just how starkly the University con- trasts with its surround- ings; a person would have to drive a long way before encountering another high-rise. PVTA buses carry passengers past horse farms and nursuries, leaving behind the bars and f rats of Amherst. The sky, no longer obscured by buildings, seems to ex- pand in all directions. Marks of human pres- ence are scattered along this thoroughfare. Apart- ments such as the Farm House and Cliffside house upperclassmen trying to avoid the craziness to which places such as Pufton lend themselves. The town boasts some no- table landmarks. For those who long for real old-fashioned barbeque. Bub's provides a heaping helping of ribs and other meat products. Diners at Goten can enjoy anything from sushi to Japanese steakhouse cuisine. And for the twenty-one-plus crowd, the Seven O's acts as local watering hole. Route 116 winds through Sunderland and into South Deerfield. There stands the famous Yankee Candle Company. The huge "store" would be better termed an "amusement park". A person could spend hours in there, indulging in the different sights and espe- cially smells. Also on the premises is the company's auto museum, another ac- tivity for a rainy Sunday when the parents are up. Down the streeet from South Deerfield stands the noble town of Whatley, known for little else but its diner. The Whatley Diner is a great place to go late at night, for cheap, greasy fare. Down 1 16 just a little bit further is the exit to Route 91. Going south on this highway will take a person to Holyoke, Springfield, and eventu- ally Hartford. It is a good road to take to get back in touch with civilization. But for those in pursuit of an escape, north is the di- rection to travel. 91 takes a traveller into the Green Mountain State, where tiny towns nestle them- selves at the feet of magestic peaks. What UMass student has not cried out, "Road trip!" to some faithful friend, and headed to Vermont along 91 or the more leisurely Routes? Driving without a plan, pulling off by the side of the road to hike or picnic sets the perfect situation for self-realiza- tion. by Rebecca Anne Sozanski ^^^^^^^-: 1 Pfiotography by: Upper Left: Aaron D.

The preceding vi- gnette depicts a typical Sat- urday night in Northampton, Massachu- setts. This quintessential New England town, with only 30,000 residents, is a mere half hour bus ride from Amherst. The town maintains a thriving down- town and has become a mecca of late-night enter- tainment. What makes Northampton unique is its eclectic mix of small, inde- pendently-owned busi- nesses, combining small-town ciiarm with metropolitan cultural and educational oppor- tunities. Here you'll find plays, music and dance; trendy and tra- ditional shops; a book- store around every cor- ner; and a wide selec- tion of bars and restau- rants. At night you can relax and study at a sidewalk cafe or listen to musicians perform on the streets. The town is also home to Smith College, a mem- ber of the five-college consortium. While touring Northampton you can visit the law offices of Calvin Coolidge, who was mayor here before he became president. Noho is also the home of Sylvester Graham, the dietary reformer who gave his name to the Graham cracker. You can also visit the Academy of Music, where Harry Houdini once escaped on stage. Today Northampton is most famous for its so- cial activism, and was recently featured in a magazine as one the hippest places to live. Northampton has an overabundance of eateries, ranging from pizza-by-the-slice at Pinocchio's, to a gour- met dinner at Spoleto's, where Hillary Clinton has recently dined. It's amazing that such a small town can support so many restaurants, but it's because people travel from afar to eat in this town. Noho of- fers a wide range of foods from around the globe. For desert you can stop at Herrell's or Bart's and indulge in the area's best ice cream, or savor a pastry at La Fiorentina. Northampton has a very active nightlife. where you can dance the night away at the Grotto or Metro, two of the area's hottest dance clubs where you'll have to wait in line to get in. Or if dancing is not your forte, you can watch a critically-acclaimed for- eign film at the Pleasant Street Theater or the Academy of Music. You can also watch a live band perform at the Iron Horse Music Hall. In Northampton there's always something going on. Shopping is an- other popular attraction in Northampton. Northampton contains Student Life 55 Q rthampton several shops, restaurants and centers of entertain- ment that can't be found in other towns. From traditional to trendy, Northampton's shops have almost everything you'll need. For example, one popular destination point for many tourists to Northampton is Faces, a two-floor non-tradi- tional department store. Faces sells a wide mix of products, ranging from cloth- ing, cards and acces- sories, to toys, tem- porary hair color and apartment furniture. Thome's Mar- ketplace, a 30-store, indoor shopping arcade, and many other stores sell a wide range of prod- ucts for you or your dorm, including furniture and designer clothes. Also, you can design your own jewelry at a bead store, or get a book at one of the town's many book- stores. Other shops carry art supplies, exercise gear, and used compact discs. Northampton hosts many popular annual events. Each Au- gust the town hosts its Taste of Northampton, in which the town celebrates the diver- sity of its restaurants. Northampton also cel- e b r a t e s each new year in style with First Night, which starts with festivities during the day, and at night you can party from bar to bar and enjoy the numer- ous performances.

In a well-written story, setting is crucial; place amplifies plot, imparting significance to action. So it is with our college stories. There are city cam- puses and country campuses, schools nestled on the sides of mountains, schools hidden in valleys, schools on the shores of lakes and rivers. These varia- tions in set- t i n g are by n o means trivial; they create a whole differ- e n t context for the stories that a stu- dent body writes for itself. For all the progress we have made, we are just as depen- dent upon the natural world for our sense of self as were the first humans. It could be argued that, if one wants to know what type of person lives in a house, one must look out of his window, rather than in. A UMass student can look out her win- dow to see a Southwest tower in the foreground and towering moun- tains in the back- ground. The area is the epitomy of the outside- world's perception of New England, that is rendered by artists Norman Rockwell and Grandma Moses, and captured in the poetry to the cool nights and crisp, harvest-tone days of autumn.

This campus has several trails around its perimeter, well- worn by the treks of those without the time or the thirst for adven- ture that a longer jour- ney requires. By the Observatory, down the cow paths, behind Syl- van... these are are perfect hikes to break- up the monotony of a long, over-modernized day. Just a couple of miles off-campus are some beauti- f u 1 trails. Many stu- dents enjoy walking out to t h e Wild- wood Cemetaiy, a peace- f u 1 place of winding nature trails. Just a bit far- ._^ ^-^. _ t h e r away is Amethyst Brook. This popular site opens in the spring for hikes and mountain biking. Trails loop around and over the brook, in whose waters students swim when the weather gets hot. Steep, rocky upper trails lead to several summits with scenic views of the Valley. Also near campus is the Robert Frost Student Life 59 door activities Trail. This is not the "road less travelled," among the hiking/ biking/ horse-back riding crowds. Many students enjoy this network of trails that winds its way eventu- ally to Mount Toby. Mount Toby is an excellent day hike, and is well-known to have the perfect fire- tower from which to view the sunset. Robert Frost runs around Puffer's Pond, a favorite among the late-night skinny- dippin' crowd. There are two public beaches, one located on either side of the pond, for those who swim laps.

If one follows the River to Turners Falls one can find Barton Cove, an excellent place to hike and canoe. In the other direction along Route 5 and the Connecti- cut, across from Mount Tom, are some inter- esting fossil tracks. For those feeling a bit claustrophobic in the Valley, there are always the moun- tains. One favorite location, especially for the Outing Club, is the Holyoke hike, most of them taking the average climber about an hour to reach the Range. These peaks are visible to the south of campus. Located down Route 116, these moun- tains are a good day summit. Bare Moun- tain, so named for the exposed rock on its top, is a popular destination for hik- ers of this range. Another local mountain retreat is Sugarloaf, located near Whatley. This mountain is named WUCL for its sheer cliff of sand- stone which is the color of brown sugar. Cars can drive to the top, from where most of the Valley is visible be- low. When remember- ing their time in the Pioneer Valley, most UMass al- ums will remember the world outside their win- dows.

For some students, the start of the week- end is a signal to head off campus and leave their classes and home- work behind. They will find plenty of dis- tractions in Amherst and nearby Northampton, ranging from great restau- rants, live music, dancing, and pubs, to film festivals, movie theatres and art galler- ies. There are plenty of good culinary op- tions in the Pioneer Valley, many of them cheap enough for stu- dent budgets.

Few UMass students will pass their four years in town with- out venturing into the aromatic din of the nar- row pizza shop several times. Pasta y Basta, The Black Sheep, and Bueno y Sano are also known for their good, low-cost meals. When that birthday check from Grandma arrives, students treat them- selves to a much-de- served meal at The Pub or Judie's in Amherst or Spaghetti Freddy's or FitzWilley's in Northampton. The Pio- neer Valley is also home to some excellent In- dian, Chinese and Middle Eastern restau- rants, including the In- dia House, Panda Gar- den and Amber Waves. Vegetarians check out the fare at the Fire and Water Cafe or Haymarket, both in Northampton, while meat lovers head out to Bub's BBQ. in Sunderland for hearty portions of ribs and chicken. And, for those really special occasions, the area boasts several pricey but first-class establishments, such as Spoleto in Northampton and Sea- sons and the Lord Jeffery Inn in Amherst. The area's many coffee shops present a great after-dinner stop. Students can relax and sip mochas at Claudia's, The Blue Moon, or Rao's, or grab an ice cream cone at Bart's. There's plenty of room and time for intense conversations, a friendly game of chess, or even - gasp - study- ing! In addition, many of the coffee shops and cafes present live mu- sic weekly, which, com- bined with homey at- mospheres, makes them a pleasant place to spend an evening. The Pioneer Valley is home to one of the most vital live music scenes on the East Coast and music lovers can almost always find a show (or three!) in town.

Finally, lovers of jazz and classical music will find professional. faculty and student performances every weekend on all five campuses. Dancers can check out the vibes at Club Metro in Northampton or Club Kai in Hadley, or head over to The Pub or Pruddy's in Amherst. Bar hopping is a tradi- tional weekend activity, with upperclassmen heading uptown to hit Barcie's, Delano's, and Time Out (when it's open!). Sports fans can check out their favorite games at Rafter's or play a game of pool at Mike's Westview or Michael's Billiards. Younger students crowd into houses on Frat Row or Main Street, where a few parties are guaranteed every week- end night. Then there's the infamous Hobart Lane, which the town of Amherst wanted to take by imminent domain after last year's Hobart Hoe Down, an annual spring bash, got a little out of control. Keg par- ties also abound at the other apartment com- plexes, including Pufton Village, Brandywine, the Townhouses and Mill Valley. Few students looking for a party go home unsatisfied.

UMass fields excellent varsity teams in basketball, soccer, lacrosse, baseball, swimming and diving, and gymnastics, among others. For the sports enthusiast, there's always a few home games each weekend. The UMass Marching Band, one of the best in the nation, puts on a great halftime show at every home foot- ball game. The newly fin- ished turf at Garber Field sets a great backdrop for lacrosse and field hockey games, and both men and women's soccer games can be caught at Totman Field. In the winter students can show their spirit at hockey and basketball games, and route for the home team along with the UMass cheerleading squad. The first sign of spring brings out the baseball and soft- ball teams to practice our national past time. Non- varsity athletes have plenty of opportunities to play, too, with intramural competitions in almost ev- ery sport taking place ev- ery weekend. RSOs and other groups put on cultural events and sponsor speak- ers in the Campus Center and Student Union. Groups such as the Tap Dogs and many other music, dance and theatre productions can be seen at the Fine Arts Center.

The purpose of this Reg- istered Student Or- ganization is to keep the University sensitive to world affairs, issues, and happenings. In ac- cordance with this purpose, DVP in- vites individuals whose experience in politics, science, humanities, media, or the arts qualify them to interpret and raise questions about life in all of its dimensions. Over the years, DVP has stimulated critical thought and debate by presenting such speakers as Kurt Vonnegut, Chuck D., Angela Davis, John Updike, Arthur Spiegelman, Allen Ginsberg, and Rebecca Walker. This year's speak- ers—Tim O'Brien, Ray Bradbury, Ed- ward James Olmos, and Naomi Wolf- continued to add to DVP's list of distin- guished guests. The fall se- mester began with Tim O'Brien, a Na- tional Book Award winner in fiction, who opened to a crowded Student Union Ballroom with a lecture en- titled "A Writer's Life." Instead of giv- ing a lecture to a crowded Student Union Ballroom with a lecture de- tailing the chrono- logical events in his life, Tim O'Brien told a series of sto- ries from his child- hood through young adulthood focusing on events prior to and during his service in the Vietnam War. Al- though his writing career thus far has been quite exten- sive, many of his novels adn stories are inspired by his experiences from 1969 to 1970, kkuring his service as a foot soldier in the war. In his lec- ture, he reasoned this focus clearly, as writer he finds it important to con- vey the emotions of any experience, emotions above the factual, and the event in his life with the most in- tense emotions to convey: the Viet- nam War. Many of the stories which he included in his lec- ture were eserts from his award- winning The Things They Carried, a col- lection of short sto- ries which is re- quired reading for many UMASS courses. He con- cluded his lecture with a question and answer period as well as a brief book- signing. The second lecturer for the fall semester, Ray Bradbury, is also an author; however, his stories and nov- els are of a very dif- ferent genre: sci- ence fiction. Bradbury is quite prolific and he is best known for the futuristic thriller, Farenheit 451, as well as The Martian Chronicles, and Something Wicked this Way Comes. 66 Student Life Prior to the lecture, Bradbury autographed cop- ies of his many books. Like O'Brien, Bradbury spoke to the Fine Arts Center audi- ence about his Ufe; a monologue ex- plaining his transi- tion into the writer he is today. He emphasized the importance of li- braries and self- education, using himself as an ex- ample, because al- though he has no formal college edu- cation, Bradbury considers himself to possess much more than the equivalent degreel The fall se- mester concluded with Bradbury and the Spring began with a DVP/ALANA cosponsorship of Edward James Olmos. Actor and Social activist, Olmos' work as well as political channels. His lec- ture, "Diversity, Racism, Social Change and Poli- tics," touched on all sides of Olmos' public career; how- ever, his main focus remained with Latino heritage be- cause of his promi- nent status as a role model for the Latino community and Americans across the board. He expressed his concerns regarding the "English Only" policy in the States, the manner in which Latinos are portrayed in the media, and the dis- advantaged posi- tion many youths find themselves in the world today. Over half of his lec- ture was audience- interactive, with a large question and answer policy, dem- onstrating the im- portance Olmos places on audience feedback. The final speaker of the 97- 98 academic year, Naomi Wolf, fur- thered our already diverse roster. Au- thor and feminist, she is considered controversial by both academia and the general public. Her approach to feminism is quite defferent than most and her en- gaging speech out- lined his positions on many issues. She veherently op- poses the idea of a single type of femi- nism and feminist; instead, she sees that all people-men and women— who are in favor of equality (no matter what their political stance) should con- sider themselves feminists. Wolf carried her enthu- siasm into the re- ception following the lecture where many anxiously awaited her an- swers to their un- answered ques- tions. And here is the conclusion of another successful year for the distin- guished Visitor's Program. Next year DVP will return with Jose Tolson advising and a mix- ture of many new as well as old mem- bers and support- ers. By Marta Pcin Student M U L L I N S There are few other colleges that of- fer as wide an array of entertainment events as UMass. Organiza- tions such as Some- thing Every Friday pro- vide official, school- sanctioned fun, while area businesses like Pearl St. and the Iron Horse add their own bit o' flavor to the mix. However, the main force behind the music scene in Amherst re- mains the Mullins Cen- ter, the barometer of our tastes. Situated near the athletic fields of South- west, the Mullins Cen- ter is one of the most modern and styling structures gracing this fair campus. It consists of two buildings. The smaller of these houses the ice rink and rac- quetball courts. It is in this smaller building that students at the University can take per- forming arts or ice skat- ing classes, free skate, or play some ball. The larger build- ing is that with which most of us are more fa- miliar, home of the Minutemen/ women basketball teams and music extravaganzas. During the 1997-98 school year, students shelled out between $20 and $65 per show (not including the cost of Fribbles and tee shirts) to see what was hot in the world of pop culture. The year opened with a bang, commenc- ing the concert season with a show by Valley favorites the Indigo Girls. This show was part of the Honor the Earth Tour, designed to raise awareness about environmentally racist acts directed at Native Americans. The perfor- mance given by the duo of Sailers and Ray was considered by many to be one of their finest. Also appearing during the fall were the likes of Counting Crows, Live, 311, and Sugar Ray. Despite weak reviews by the Collegian, many con- cert-goers enjoyed the Crows' ad lib poetry; what the set lacked in intensity it made up for in spontaneity. Live was well-received by hard-core fans and new-listeners alike (al- though some were dis- appointed to see that singer Kowalzcak had regrown his hair. Still endearing, but not quite as compelling.) 311, back for the sec- ond year in a row, rocked the house with one of this year's new sensations, Sugar Ray (and yes, there is more than the song / Just Wanna Fly on this lat- ter band's album). One of the biggest musical events that Western Mass has seen in years also took place this fall semester. Elton John made his only area appearance at the Mullins Center, charg- ing fanatics a hefty sum to hear him tickle the ivories and belt out some oldies and good- ies. Procuring tickets, proved a Herculean task. Traffic stretched I for miles in every direc- tion, making move-im day look like a walk (er, , drive) in the park. Just following the release of Good-bye Princess^ Rose, the show rode the wave of a new-found interest in John's mu- sic. Perhaps one of the biggest surprise hits i (only to those unfamil- iar with Valley tastes)) was big-seller Anii DiFranco. DiFranco,, owner of Righteous^ Babe Records andl newly crowned goddess of bitchin' feminist folk, , sold more tickets than Counting Crows andl Live combined. This, artist, who uses her songs to raise sociall consciousness about every platform under the sun, is openly bi- sexual and talks can- didly about abortioni and sexual assault. Her music seems to be part of a resurgence in so- cially conscious music; as she herself states, "Every tool is a weapon i if you hold it right." This year's con- cert schedule at the Mullins Center pro- vided entertainmentl for thousands of UMass • students. It is mostlj likely that the Centerr' will continue to bring, quality music and may- hem to our neck of the woods for a long time to come. 6y ReSecca Anne Sozanski 68 HP'' E N T E R 69 The eighth annual Haigis Hoopla three on three basketball festi- val presented by the University of Massa- chusetts sport manage- ment program, was held on Saturday April 25 and Sunday April 26 at the Haigis Mall. The event was or- ganized through the ef- forts of the sport man- age- ment pro- gram, Amherst R e - ^^^ gional High School students, and local volunteers. Despite the rainy weather the tourna- ment was still a huge success. It is the larg- est three-on-three bas- ketball festival in West- ern Massachusetts and attracted a record high of more than 490 teams, including an unprecedented record of 54 women's teams.

From Northeast to South- west, UMass stu- dents celebrate the end of another New England winter and kick off the upcom- ing summer with music, dancing, and anything else the campus police will allow. The execution of these festivities is the responsibility of the Area Govern- ments, known af- fectionately by ac- ronyms such as SWAG and OHAG (Southwest and Or- chard Hill Area Governments) . Planning takes lots of time and money; SWAG, OHAG and Central Area Gov- ernments each have their own events, while North- east and Sylvan pool their resources. Due to the cancellation of the traditional Spring Concert and the police shutdown of Hobart Ho-Down in 1998, the Area Governments were under heavy pres- sure to show the University commu- nity a good (free) time. They did not disappoint. The festivities commenced in the Northeast quad the weekend of April 26. Students could participate in such crazy stunts as climbing the Velcro wall or the fake rocks. A tourna- ment was organized in the beach volley- ball court. Organiz- ers dished out tradi- tional cook out fare and lots of Frappuccinos' from Starbucks. For the second year in a row. Mother Nature decided to let the rain fall during the event, which put a damper on resi- dents' desire to hang out in the great outdoors. But overall, as junior communications major Jen Haydock SYLVAN...NORTHEil 72 Student Life said, "It was a good time. Students ap- preciate it when the University does something to offer events such as this, which give a more small-school feel to such a large place." During the fol- lowing week, the party migrated south, to the Horse- shoe of our largest and most infamous residential area. SWAG, because of its size and funding, puts on the longest and possibly crazi- est event of all. As sophomore biology major Tasha Molchan said, " I live on the 22nd floor of Washing- ton, and I could hear everything go- ing on down there all week long." The very term "South- west Week" invokes terror in the hearts of already over- worked RAs; de- spite a multitude of security measures, the beer always manages to flow freely through the bloodstreams of many revelers. This year saw such crowd- pleasers as an X- rated hypnotist, an eighties cover band, and a stand up co- median. There were movies, danc- ing, and basketball. The weather was cooperative, and attitudes seemed good. Most of those who attended events said they were pleased with the options offered them. By the end of Southwest Week, the party had fi- nally crept up to Upper Central and Orchard Hill (it's a steep climb, so it took a while). The keyword up there was "bands"; music echoed through the basketball court and Bowl from Fri- day through Sun- day. Many of the musicians perform- ing at Central Fest were well-known to residents there, who had heard them practicing in basements and dorm rooms for weeks preceding ,,„,„^„^,,,,^. the event.

Some noted that these beverages were past the point of peak freshness. "Don't worry, " said senior psychology major Erik Cheries, "I called the toll-free number on the bottle, and they as- sured me that these are okay to drink." The smell of smoke saturated the air for days. The highlight for many came when the police shut down Saturday's show early, nearly leading to a riot as angry stu- dents chanted obscenities di- rected at a cer- tain type of barnyard ani- mal. This was short-lived, as the crowd was pretty mellow over- all. "1 was hoping we could be on the news, like UConn was a couple weeks earlier for some riot, but it didn't hap- pen," lamented sophomore engi- neering major Nate Olken. By Re6ecca Anne Sozanski Orchard Hill came alive at this year's Bowl Day '98, the annual weekend bash sponsored by Orchard Hill Area Government (OHAG), which at- tracted hundreds of UMass students from May 1-2. This year's Bowl Day, which drew much larger crowds than last year's, fea- tured lots of bands, a variety of activi- ties, and great everyone outside, bringing Orchard Hill neighbors to- gether. On Saturday, several rap acts, in- cluding Da Cocoa Brovaz and Shootyz Groove, Tony Lucca, Busted Fro and Meanwhile..., entertained Or- chard Hill and Cen- weather, as stu- dents gathered for one last hurrah be- fore finals. A dance party in the bowl kicked off the weekend on Friday night. DJ's spun favorite '80s tunes and took re- quests from the en- thusiastic crowd in the bowl, while the rest of Orchard Hill looked on from their balconies. The warm tempera- ture seemed to lure tral residents from a stage on the Van Meter/Webster bas- ketball courts. The warm, sunny weather and good tunes pleased an audience of several hundred. Some students brought blankets to lie out, some brought pic- nic lunches, and some brought their dogs. Me anwhile , back in the bowl, OHAG set up sev- eral different activ- ity stations and a big bouncing house. The ever- popular Resident Assistant (RA) dunk tank was busy all day, with students trying to send their favorite authority figures for a wet ride. One of the most popular stations was the henna tattoo booth, where students could get a semi- permanent henna design on their bodies for $4.00. Over forty students were painted with the brown dye, which lasts for about two weeks before fading away. Some got circu- lar designs around their belly- buttons or flowers on their ankles, while others got "Mom" in a heart on their biceps. Students could also make hemp necklaces with beads at another station, where OHAG members provided materials and instructions for proper braiding techniques. Other RAs manned the charcoal grill and 74 Student Life CENTRAL....S prepared burgers, hotdogs, and veggie burgers for the scores of hungry residents. Lunch was free, as were bright red frisbees bearing the Bowl Day logo, "Get a Hilltop High." Sophomore computer science major and Grayson resident Abraham Cho said he was en- joying himself at Bowl Day. "There's a lot more here than there was last year," Cho said. "The weather's great, too. It's nice to see everyone hang out together." UMass is infa- mous for its parties. Some of these, un- fortunately, lead to violence and other crimes. Area Gov- ernment Events are a more controlled and arguably more fun way for stu- dents to shake off their Seasonal Af- fective Disorder and go a little crazy, before the grind of finals week. The tradition of these events should con- tinue far into the future, as they are one of the high- lights of a long spring semester. By Tamar W. CarroCC Pfiotograpfied By: Center Left: Anfi L.

A cen trist New Democrat, he transformed his once beleaguerec party. Under his presidency, the United States enjoyec the lowest rate of inflation since the early 1960's, anc he was the first president in 17 years to submit a bal anced budget to Congress. His vice president, Al Gore was considered a very powerful vice president and wa; the president's closest adviser. The 49-year-old Gon was considered a favorite for the Democratic presiden tial nomination in year 2000. However, a year after thei: re-election, both men were under close scrutiny for cam: paign finance violations. First Lady Hillary Rodham Clinton turned 50 on October 26, 1997. She was the most famous of the fe- male Baby Boomers. During her husband's first term as President, Hillary Clinton took a leading role in health-i care reform. Now, after nearly two years in the wingsj she was quietly returning to center stage to begin a pro-i gram on child care. One compelling reason for her to move on to the next project is the empty nest — her daughter Chelsea had left home for college. She seemed ready for a new challenge and a new project. Yasser Arafat was chairman of the Palestine Lib-) eration Organization and president of the Palestin-i ian National Authority. He was one of the key lead-l ers in trying to maintain peace in the Middle Easti His 1993 handshake of peace with Yitzhak Rabini promised mutual recognition between the Palestin-i ians and the state of Israel. Under the agreement,! Arafat assumed leadership of Arabs within Israel's occupied territories. The 68-year-oId leader played a very important role in keeping peace in the Middle East. 76 Student Life Mother Teresa was among the most well-known and highly respected /vomen in the world in the later half Df the twentieth century. In 1948 she founded a religious order of Roman Catholic nuns in Calcutta, India, called the Missionaries of Charity. Through this order, she dedicated her life to helping the poor, the sick and the dying around the world, particularly those in India. Her selfless work with the needy brought her much acclaim and many awards, including the Nobel Peace Prize in 1979. She died at the age of 87 on September 5, 1997 of heart failure at her convent in Calcutta. Britain and the world bid farewell to Diana, Princess of Wales, on a sparkling September morning with a grand tribute rich in pageantry. Since her death in a car crash in Paris a week before, the country had wit- nessed an astonish- ing outpouring of grief that forced a repentant monarchy to join in the kind of full celebration of Diana's life that the millions of people who flooded into London demanded. Her sons, William, 15, and Harry, 12, stood in attendance, joined by their fa- ther. Prince Charles and her brother. Earl Spencer, as her body was taken into Westminster Abbey. Millions packed the city for the funeral of Diana. It was a crowd unmatched since the end of World War II. More than a million bouquets by official count were stacked outside the royal pal- aces. Jewel began writing songs when she was 17. Now, at 23, she's a star. Her first album, "Pieces of You," was released in 1995 and became an instant and prolonged hit, spending well over a year on the top charts. She was raised in Alaska where she began perform- ing at the age of five. Her junior and senior years in high school were spent at the Interlochen Fine Arts Academy in Michigan. She then went to San Diego, which she now calls home. However, Jewel makes a point of maintaining a solid connection to her roots in Homer, Alaska — she carries a container of genuine Alaskan dirt wherever she travels.

And except for two brief gaps, the space station has been manned continuoulsy ever since. It has made more than 60,000 trips around Earth. In 1994 the U.S. and Russia agreed to conduct joint missions aboard the station. A docking mod- ule was attached to Mir, allowing American space shuttles to link up with the Russia station. The main Mir module — which provides liv- ing quarters for up to six people — has been orbiting for nearly 12 years, which is seven years longer than planned. These joint U.S.-Rus- sian missions are the first phase of a program to build an International Space Station. This station is sched- uled to be in orbit by the year 2002. 1997 WORLD SERIES SONNY BONO Student Life 79 The Verve Pipe is an incredible rock/pop/ alternative band from East Lansing, Michigan Their first single, "Photograph," received a lo of air time and became a fairly big hit.

From the loss of their former star, Kyle Rothenberg and Coach Pam Hixon, and the change from Totman Field to the new Astro Turf at Garber Field, the team has spent much of their season adjusting to new changes. The Minutewomen began the season with a loss to James Madison in overtime. However, as the season pro- gressed, the Minutewomen began working together as a team. On Columbus Weekend, the Minutewomen beat No. 9 Ball State in a 2-1 win. Then on the second day, they scored another victory with a win over No. 10, Syracuse. This year's team was led defensively by sweeper Amy Ott, and centerback Sharon Hughes. These two sensa- tional seniors, who only played together for two seasons, found their niche and lead the way for the Minutewomen. Another important player on the team is Junior forward Erica Johnson who was the team's leading scorer and was elected A- 10 player of the week at least 4 times last sea- son. The Minutewomen ended the season with a 3-1 win over West Chester, No. 1 1 for the Atlantic- 10 final. Unfor- tunately, the win was not enough for the Minutewomen to advance further in the NCAA tournament. The Minutewomen should be proud of this season's perfor- mance. With so many changes that challenged this sea- son, it was a miracle that these women could concentrate on the game as well as they did. By Loretta B.

Catterton played another im- pressive game, sowing an ability to elude the rush and a willing- ness to put his head down and run. The defense also made a fine showing in the effort. Unfortunately, the team was jnot able to muster any more wins this season and lost the remain- ing games to Delaware (9-40), Hofstra, (13-51), Boston Uni- versity, (8-33), and Connecti- cut, (9-49). New promise, though, for next season can be seen in Head Coach Mark Whipple and his incoming class of recruits. By Sara HacjcnBuck Sports 89 i3»a.'-a.: It's pretty hard to imagine any team suffering through a season filled with as much tur- moil as the Massachusetts Hockey Team did during the 1997-98 season.

However, if you stop and think about the season, the ac- complishments are quite re- markable. After a disastrous first half of the season and an 0-10-1 start in Hockey East, UMass was left for dead in late January. However, the Minutemen fought back to beat Providence, Merrimack, and then #3 New Hampshire (an eventual Final Four Team), to set up a season finale showdown with Maine. UMass needed a won to make the Hockey East playoffs, but fell just short, skating to a 5-5 tie with the Black Bears. UMass will graduate a large senior class this spring, whichi leaves the Minutemen with ai young team for 1998.

The Minutewomen sported an 8-3 dual meet mark during the season and with a mix of talented underclassmen in place, the future also looks bright for the Minutewomen. Several different swimmers had impres- sive campaigns for the Minutewomen. Senior Barbara Hickey had a solid season, along with Sophomore Andrea Spencer, and Freshman Sarah Newell. After struggling through some early season injuries, the Minutewomen rallied back strong to win five of their final six dual meets of the season. UMass will lose only a handful of seniors after this year, and has an experienced group coming back. Along with swimmers like Spencer and Newell, others who are ex- pected to contribute are Julie Alexander, Marci Hupp, Shannon Rowell, Lia Lansky, and Julie Dragon. Highlights from the 1997-98 season in- cluded wins over Northeastern, Provi- dence, Dartmouth, and St. John's. The team also had solid showings at the Penn State Invi- tational as well as the Atlantic 10 Champion- ships.

Brown's best time of 57.58 in that event is the second- fastest in UMass his- tory. 6y Rebecca Anne Sozanski Sports 93 Women The women of the UMass track and field team had a strong season, from the opening of cross country in the fall until the ECAC Championship in March. Led by head coach Julie LaFreniere, this team was a force to be reckon with in the Atlantic 10. Many athletes made names for themselves, both in the A-10 and in the larger world of the NCAA. The athletes in- volved in combina- tion events in 1998 were among the strongest in school history. Rosey Bryan ranks in the top five for five indoor and three outdoor events. Her speciali- ties include triple jump, long jump, 100 meter hurdles, 55 meter hurdles, 200 meter, and 55 meter. She is always a high scorer. 1998 marked the long awaited return of Anya Forrest to the 55 and 100 meter hurdles, in which she is the school record holder. She returned after a year and a half of rest due to two fractured verte- brae. Senior Rebecca Donaghue led the distance runners in 1998. Donaghue went into the season as the A-10 Indi- vidual Champion and two-time NCAA Cross Country Quali- fier. Senior Christy Martin and junior Nicole Way were also key players for the team in distance, with Way perform- ing the long and triple jumps in addi- tion to running events. Sophomore Lisa Flood, returned as the 1997 A-10 Champion in the in- door 800 meter. Shana Mitchell, top returning thrower in the A-10, was a big scoring factor in 1998. This senior holds the record in the 20 lb. shotput and is fourth on the discus and hammer throw charts. Fresh- men Alison Tostevin and Carole LaPlante entered this season also heavily favored to score big points with their throws. The Minutewomen had a great season, with lots of ups and very few downs. With the return of many tal- ented underclass- men for the 1999 season, the team should approach the millennium with high hopes for the future. 6y Rebecca Anne Sozanski 94 Sports Men The Men's Indoor Track and Field Team had an exciting year. As a team, they finished 4th in the New England Regional Championships, the highest finish in recent history. At the New England Regional Champion- ships, Senior Scott Price finished an amazing but not surprising first place in both of his events, the 5 5 meter and 200 meter race. Junior Ben Baraldi also finished in first place in the 55meter hurdles. While Albie Vasquez placed 5th in the pole vault. This historical finish however, came before a disappointing 5th place at the Atlantic 10 Championship. Although, Ablie Vasquez placed first in the pole vault championship and Price placed 2nd place in the 200meter at the conference, it was not enough to pull the team out of a disappointing 5th place. This year's cumulating accomplishments were due to the efforts of the whole team. While Senior Scott Price was busy breaking old UMass records and personal records, junior Tom Toye topped Price by breaking a couple of records on his own, often times defeating Price's old records in the 200meter. Price and Toye were often tripping on each other's feet both at meets and practices. Through friendly competition this duo have pushed each other toward the finish line faster. Seniors Brian Chabot and Ryan Carrara gave great efforts in the lOOOmeter and SOOOmeter events. We also cannot forget the unforgettable relay team of Price, Toye, Junior Neil Conception and freshman Marc Sylander. Although the team will be losing valuable players Seniors Scott Price and Brian Chabot, they will still be a force to reckon with. ^ Loretta B.

The Minutemen have earned more respect nationwide for their skills. The players have almost all changed. And John Calipari moved on the NBA, passing on the head coaching reins to Bruiser Flint. Flint, the winningest first year coach in UMass menis basketball his- tory, looked to 1998, his sec- ond season, with high hopes. The team went through a couple rough patches, but showed con- tinued im- provement overall from the previous year. They finished the season 21-11, 12-4 in confer- ence play.

UMass had a difficult schedule of mainly away games that kept them on the road for most of the season; play commenced with a ten day road trip to California, and kept up a similar grueling pace until the NCAA Tour- nament. The team started out with an almost even number of wins and losses, but by the end of January had managed to pull off a ten game win- ning streak. In the last game of regular sea- son play, the Number 20 Minutemen and the Temple Owls went to battlE to determine who would sit atop the ( on- ference going into the Tournam ;nt.

Their season had its ups and downs, but still culminated in an at-large bid as the Number 13 seed in the West for the NCAA Tournament. In the first round of play they fell to the Hawkeyes of the University of Iowa. De- spite this loss, the sea- son was one of many ac- complish- ments for this team, both as a group and individually. The Minutewomen returned this year, trying to rise above the disap- pointment of not being part of tour- nament play in 1997. They made it for the first time ever in 1996, where they fell to Michigan State in the first round. They hoped to rebuild, and go all the way in 1998. The team was ex- pected to be one of the strongest ever. The backcourt was fueled by senior Sabriya Mitchell and sopho- mores Kelly Van Huisen and Alison MacFarland, all re- turning to score big points for the Minutewomen. The three were top scorers for the team in the previous year. Junior Tez Kraft re- turned from knee injuries after a year on the sidelines to play small forward. The team finished with an overall record of 19-11, 11-5 in conference play. One of the highlights of the sea- son was a 54-47 win against Fordham, which marked coach O'Brien's 100th career victory. She is the only coach in the UMass women's basket- ball program history to achieve this level of success. Another highlight was the fi- nal home game of regular sea- son play, at which the seniors 49-44. This placed them in their first ever A- 10 final match-up against power- house Virginia Tech. In a neck and neck game that led to overtime play, the Minutewomen eventually fell, 64-66. Kraft and senior Kara Tudman were named to the All-Tournament team, and Kraft also earned Tour- nament Most Valuable Player. C o m - peting for attention with the famed UMass Min- utemen, the Minutewomen have slowly begun to rise above the ranks in college bas- k e t b a 1 1 . They are slowly but surely build- ing a loyal following who recog- nize their athletic prowess and potential to be a world class team. While se- n i o r s Mitchell and Tudman will be sorely missed, the future looks promising in the hands of such stars as Kraft, Van Huisen, and company. got a real going away party, defeating George Washington 68-55.

Hersey 9.2, and Lloyed Alquist 9.1. Other notable performances were also Junior Phil Leiberman 9.55 and Stephen Pryor, 9.7 both on the horizontal bars. With a winning meet under their belts, the UMass men went on to the New England Champi- onships.

By Loretta B. Kwan 100 Sports s T 1 c s This year's Women Gymnastics team has had a incredible season, especially by key players such as Jill Fisher. The season started out with a win against rival George Washington. The performance by the Minutewomen surprised everyone including JuruQr_Anita Sanyal who competed in the all-around for the first time and finished first with ascore of .39.075.

Another exciting event was the win against longtime rival, the University of New Hampshire. UMass, No. 23 took the top three places on the bar by Junior Jennifer Pokrana and Freshmen Jobi Goldberg and Mary Moore against ranked No. 22 UNH. Contributing to the success of the meet was Senior co-captain Karen Maurer who scored a 9.575 on the floor and Sanyal who received her second all-around title this season. The most exciting event this season was probably performed by Freshman Jill Fisher who scored a perfect 10 on the floor routine at home. She scored the ever first 10 on a home meet and was the second women in history to ever score a perfect 10. However that night ended in disappointment by a loss to West Virginia. The night finished with Senior Penny LeBedu, Junior Betsy Colucci placing 2nd and 3rd at the vault, Jobi Goldberg 3rd. in the bars and Sanyal 3rd on the beam and all-around. The Minutewomen accomplished many feats this season especially by new-comer Jill Fisher who looks to have a promising career in gymnastics at UMass and a new all- around competitor, Anita Sanyal, who took the new challenge with great strides. Al- though, they will lose their two co-captains next year, Karen Maurer and Penny LeBeau, the women still have an incredible future here at UMass. By Loretta B.

He was followed by freshman Jor- dan Kingdon, junior Todd Fowler, senior co-captains Eric McCormack and Jason Cranston, and senior Justin Rouleau in the second, third, fourth, and fifth positions re- spectively. The men placed 3rd in the Umass Tournament, 2nd in the Plymouth State Tourna- ment, 4th in the Brown/UConn Tournament, 3rd in the Boston College Tournament and 3rd in the Smith College Tournament. The UMass men's team re- corded a team time of 353.77 in the slalom at the Smith Tour- nament. Eric McCormack skied two of his best collegiate per- formances with third place and a time of 68.10 in the slalom and seventh place with a time of 82.27 in the giant slalom. Thomas Holden placed fourth in the slalom (68.12) and ninth in the giant slalom (82.77). The team also saw continued suc- cess from sophomore Derek Thompson throughout the sea- son. The Women's Squad was led by senior captain Leah Muliero, who returned after a serious knee injury which oc- curred last February. Skiing behind Muliero was junior Katie Keane in second place followed by sophomore Heather Shea, freshman Margaret LaBombard, and Maryann Shirley in third, fourth and fifth places respec- tively. The women placed re- spectfully in the following tour- naments: 5th at Umass, 5th at Plymouth State, 4th at Brown/ UConn, 7th at Boston College.

The game started with six goals by Junior Brian Stahl and three by Timmy Troupis. After a strong win, the Minutemen went on to their next prey, George Washing- ton, where sophomore Richard Huntlely started as a goalie for the first time and netted three saves.

The team did well because of the efforts of these sea- soned veter- ans and count- 1 e s s others, includ- ing new runners who made a name for them- selves this season. Sprints and middle distance races were where this year's team excelled, lead by long-time standouts such as senior Scott Price, juniors Neil Concepcion and Tom Toye, and senior Paul Blodorn. Price was the 1997 Atlantic 10 Cham- pion; he ran on both 4x400 meter teams that set records last year, last year's record setting 4x100 relay team, and is listed on the UMass all- time 55 meter and 200 meter charts. Toye and Concepcion also ran on the three record setting relay teams. The former holds the school record in both the 200 and 400 meter, and is second in the outdoor 100 and 200 meter. The latter is on the all-time top five list for UMass in the indoor 200 and 400 meter. Blodorn is second on the indoor all- time 800 chart and has qualified for the IC4A twice. The addition of freshman Marc Sylvander, ranked second in both Massachu- setts and New E n - gland in the 4 0 0 meters during high school, was also a great help to short dis- tance run- ners. Junior Ben Biraldi, second best 55 meter hurdler in UMass his- tory, returned this season after being sidelined during spring of 1997 with a ham- string injury. The distance runners were led by senior co-captains Ryan Carrara and Brian Chabot. While the class of 1998 will be sorely missed, coach Ken O'Brien can enter his 32cnd season knowing he has a strong cast of rising stars to fill the roles left vacant by the exiting se- niors. The tradition of ex- cellence in men's track and field should continue far into the future. By ReBecca Anne Sozanski 1 04 Sports ack & Field Women This year the Women's Outdoor Track & Field team shows extreme promise. The Minutewomen, who are hoping for an ex- ceptional season, are led by Seniors Shana Mitchell and Rebecca Donahue. This year, Shana Mitchell started the season with a per- sonal record of 1 54ft. in the hammer throw at an invitational meet. Other major players on the team this year are Rebecca Donahue and Nicole Way who compete in the 1500-meter run. De- spite her injuries in the indoor track sea- son, Rebecca is the best 1 500 meter for the team. Michelle Cooper, Andrea Comeau, Silifa Kenku and Shelanda Irish are ready to face competition in the 4x400 meter relay. Coo- per, who is recovering from a weight lifting injury that had left her unable to compete in the indoor season last semester, is still trying to return to top form. Shelanda Irish, a relay partner, is also competing in the 100-meter dash, long jump and is the an- chor in the 4x100 relay as well as the 4x400. She is also currently the ECAC champion in the long jump. The Minutewomen's outdoor track team also would not be complete without the hurdles. This year's hurdlers are Anja Forest, Rosemarie Bryan, Chrystal Murphy and Andrea Comeau. They placed second, third, fourth and fifth respectively in an in- vitational during the beginning of the sea- son. In distance running, the three UMass women are Christy Martin, Melissa Henderson and Sharon Tillotson in the 3,000 meter run. The 5,000 meter will be run by Sarah Hirsch and Tracy Meagher. This is the first season in which Hirsch will be competing in the 5000 meter run. This year the Minutewomen have tre- mendous potential to succeed. Although two teammates are currently recovering from past injuries it does not appear to be affecting the team's performance as a whole. We should see exceptional running from Donahue and Irish this year.

With coach Elaine Sortino returning for her 19th season. All American pitcher Danielle Henderson back on the mound, and three of the top five hitters from last year's team back in the lineup, the team could be right on track for a fourth straight Atlantic 10 title and a return trip to Okla- homa City in May. The team opened their season by posting a 1-3 mark in the Annual Coca -Cola Classic hosted by Arizona State. UMass fell to Cal State Fullerton, 7-3, and No. 3 Washing- ton 2-1, along with UNLV 4-2 before defeating No. 14 Long Beach State 5-3. At the NFCA Classic in Columbus, Georgia, the women faced the toughest in the season tournament field consist- ing of NCAA tournament participants from the last two seasons. In this classic the team dropped all five out of six games to its opponents. They lost 1-6 to No. 24 Cal State Northridge, 1-5 to No. 2 Washington, 0-4 to No. 9 Florida State, 5-6 to Indiana, and 2-4 to Auburn. They did man- age to pull of a 4-0 win against Boston Univer- sity. During spring break the team traveled to the Florida State Invi- tational where they im- proved their record to 10-10 before turning to their tough regional schedule. UMass swept St. Bonaventure in the Minutewomen's home opener, 4-0 and 6-2. Henderson pitched the shutout in the first game, allowing just one hit, striking out eleven, and walking six. She re- lieved senior pitcher Liz Wagner in the fourth inning of the second game after Wagner al- lowed three hits and two runs. Henderson earned the save allow- ing one hit and striking out five. Danielle Henderson threw her third consecutive no- hitter in the first game of the doubleheader with North Carolina. The team won by a score of 4-0 but dropped the second game 1-2. The women then swept the double- header with Rhode Is- land 1-0 and 4-1. Henderson pitched the first game, allowing the Rams no hits, and com- ing one walk away from a perfect game. The Minutewomen scored their only run of the game in the fifth when senior co-captain Kim Gutridge hit an RBI single to right field to bring home junior Mandy Galas. In the second game, Gutridge also brought in Galas, hitting an RBI single in the first inning. UMass then scored three in- surance runs in the fifth when Galas had an impressive two RBI triple over URI's rightfielder. Galas then scored herself on a scoring error by the shortstop. They have won their last two games versus Hartford (4-0, 10-0), and Harvard (3- 2, 2-0). If they con- tinue their fine play well into May, they should look to a return trip to the Women's College World Series. by Sam F. HatjciiOiicfi s o T-7 a I I Sports 1 1 1 W C^'E O Of Photography by: Upper Right: AUxandc Koromittas Far Right: AUxander KoTOmiiias Right: Alexander KoromiUas The Women's Crew Team had reason to cel- ebrate their win against the New Hampshire Wild- cats and the Boston College Eagles since it was their first home race on the Connecticut River in three years. The varsity eight boat blew away its competition with a time of 5:51 while the first two novice rowed to a pair of first place finishes. The freshman boat won its race by an eleven sec- ond margin. The rising water level in the river due to the melting snow and the resulting swifter current did not seem to adversely affect the Minutewomen's races. Approximately 250-300 fans cheered loudly for their team along the banks of the Connecticut River. On April 4th, the team lost a tough race to the University of Virginia by four tenths of a sec- ond! They then had a two week absence from competition that they used for extra preparation for their matches versus Northeastern, Columbia, and Villanova. Their first race of the weekend was against instate rival Northeastern and their guests Columbia. They then traveled to Camden, New Jersey to take on the Villanova Wildcats. Other upcoming races are: April 25, the Atlantic 10 Championship (Cooper River, Camden, NJ), May 2, Yale and Brown (Housitonic River, Derby, CT), May 9, State School Regatta, (Connecticut River). Denmark native and World Championship silver medalist Sarah Lauritzen, Elena Maciulaitye, captain Jen Strong and coxswain Laura Simon look to power the Minutemen to their third con- secutive title under the direction of Coach Jim Dietz.

Remember those bonding nights, when you never felt closer to a certain person, and how that closeness creates ties that never die . . . Remember how you never realized the importance of family, until you didn't see them everyday... Remember telling fiiends the deepest secrets of your life and knowing they would remain secrets... Remember tlie craziness of the dorm, getting sudden biu-sts of energy and looking for people, even total strangers to harass . . . Remember pulling all nighters, and never thinking they were as bad as they soimded until you actually lived through one . . . Remember those nights you were so drunk you held conversaUons with strangers and seeing them the next day and remembering it. Remember hangovers, and promising yourself you were never going to do this to yourself again. . . Remember how quickly that promise was broken. . Remember when the closet stretched throughout the whole floor and you never had to worry about lack of clothes anymore . . . Remember how over breaks you had to step back and really see that the friends you made and the memories shared, and you were satisfied... Remember thinking HOW MUCH yoiu- life has changed in just months. . Remember that dream guy, you though about so much, who when he finally opened his mouth, you changed you opinion of him forever. . Remember how that guy you once lived for soon became a joke and an excuse for you and yoiu fiiends to laugh at yourself. Remember the times, never forget them, even the little ones can hold the greatest meaning . . . Remember to never lose touch with those fiiends you have made here at college because you have all changed and grown enormously together, and that is something very sacred to be shared . . . Remember to love your friends, whether r they come, go, love you, hurt you, never let anyone go . . . Remember i you are only here for a short while, the time flies before you reaUze i1 so make it last, make it memorable, make it the best time of your lifef and make the best memories that you can carry with you the rest of your days. . .Remember that this doesn't last forever so never let a day go by without living it to its fiillest . . . Remember to never let a day go by without a laugh. . .Remember the loved ones you love, life isn't forever. . Remember the laughs, let them echo in the back of your mind... And always remember, when you leave here in four years you are leaving with much more than you walked in here with... 154 Index Way to go, Jonnie!!!

Reflecting on those times, we realizje what college is really about. It is far more than the aca- demics thalwe learn in a classroom. It is about the personal inter- actions that that have shaped us into mature adults. Do you re- member all those events along the way?? The time that you came to freshman orientation and met the people who would be your initial friends. Move in day and the long el- evator lines to haul your worldly posses- sions up to your new home. Say- ing good-bye to your family, knowing that life with them would take on a different twist. Walking around campus the first day of class, map in hand, trying to figure out the craziness of Machmer or Morrill. Being over- whelmed by the craziness of the Textbook An- nex, Whitmore and the dining commons.
