Interior Design major
loses its accreditation
S ta c y L u tk u s
N ews E ditor
Drexel’s department of Interi­
or Design recently lost its Foun­
dation for Interior Design Educa­
tion and Research (FIDER)
accreditation. FIDER, which
accredited Drexel six years ago,
recently changed their standards
to include a technical checklist
according to Michael Adams,
dean of the College of Design
Arts. A ccording to Nancy
O’Leary, student dean of design
arts, the department can reapply
for accreditation in two years.
O’Leary said that the board
was very impressed by the stu­
dents in the program, but the
program itself lacked moderniza­
tion. She said that the program
was not reflective of the chang­
ing trends in design. In addition.
there is no opportunity for stu­
dents to take Computer Aided
Design (CAD) classes. “That
reflects poorly upon the Univer­
sity,” O’Leary said.
O ’Leary, a senior interior
design major, explained that
what the students learn in class
does not aid them in the work
force.
Adams commented that the
loss of FIDER accreditation
“will not affect the employability
of graduating students.”
O ’Leary
and
Adams
explained that it is not necessary
to graduate from a FIDERaccredited school to obtain a
license. Sylvia Claik, department
head, and Karin Sunstedt, associ­
ate professor, of the Department
of Interiors and Graphics Studies
were unavailable for comment.
Six administrators host
Fireside Chat in Creese

N ews Writer
On April 13, 1993, students
and administrators gathered in
the Creese Student Center for a
fireside chat w ith President
Richard D. Breslin. The meet­
ing, which was sponsored by
the division of'^tudent Affairs,
began with President Breslin
opening the floor to all ques­
tions.
Some of the major topics of
the evening included a new
police force for Drexel’s cam­
pus, a new outdoor recreational
center, financial aid, the SunD ragon solar-pow ered car,
plans for the commencement
cerem ony in June, and the
Computer Assisted Adivising
and Registrtaion and Degree
Tracking (CAARD) system.
Student Vice-President and
T reasurer C hris G razioso
inquired about the possibility
o f D rexel obtaining a new
police force on cam pus. He
said, “I feel there is need for an
enhanced security force.”
According to Breslin, there
has been “extensive conversa­
tion” about adding to Drexel’s
security departm ent over the
last two years. Breslin noted,
“We are going through a very
serio u s thought process to
enhance the security o f the
institution.” However, over the
next three weeks until May 19,
when the finance board meets,
this topic w ill be exam ined
very closely.
At one point in the meeting
Breslin himself brought a few
issues into the discussion.
Included in these was the
progress of the solar-powered
car, the SunDragon. In the tri­
als for Sunrayce ’93, held at the
Indianapolis raceway this past
weekend, Drexel qu^fled first.
Breslin noted that Drexel has
received live coverage from

sors from the College of Engi­

SunDragon as a “world-class

Breslin entailed the success of
the open houses that have been
conducted this year, financial
aid issues, and the upcoming
commencement ceremeony.
Concerning the open houses

students for the 1993-94 school
year, Breslin remarked, “We
are grateful to all those who
have provided such an inviting
atm osphere.” There are more
applicants to the University this
year than from 1992.
When discussing financial
aid, B reslin noted that the
Strategic Plan calls for a siginificant increase of financial
aid for freshm en and upper­
classmen also. In addition, there
have been som e changes
regarding financial aid on the
national level which have been
put into affect here at Drexel as
well.
Finally, Breslin said, “We

Proposed new constitution unveiled

Student Conjgress unveiled a
new proposed constitution at its
April 12 meeting. Other issues
discussed included the proposed
retail complex at the southeast
corner of 32nd and M arket
streets, a University honor code
and changes to the alcohol poli­
cy.
Congress also voted on four
issues, including a higher student
activity fee, the installation of
campus phones, the establish­
ment of a new paid employee of
Congress, and changes made to
student organization financial
guidelines.
The new constitution, present­
ed to Congress by Chief Justice
Jason Livingood, will be voted
on at next w eek’s m eeting.
Changes include the establish­
ment of a three-branch govern­
ment, and various name changes.
If the new constitution passes.
Student Congress will change its
name to the Undergraduate Stu­
dent Government Association.
Also, several committees within
the government would have their
names changed.
The new constitution, if
passed, would downsize the cur­
rent government. The new Exec­
utive Board would consist of 14
members. The Student Assem­
bly, the new legislative branch,
would have 28 members, with 16
of them eligible to vote. The
number of standing committees
would be reduced from 14 to 7.
Reacting to last w eek’s
motion from Congress concern­
ing the University’s plan to con­
struct a retail complex on cam­
pus, the administration was rep­
resented by Freddie Gallot, Uni­
versity vice president and trea­
surer. The motion demanded that
the University consider adding
space to the Creese Student Cen­
ter, as designed by Daroff archi­
tects, rather than build a new
structure at the old Cavanaugh’s
site.
Gallot fielded questions for
nearly an hour. He said that
developers and marketing firms
stated that there were far more
problems with a Creese addition
than with a new building. “If it
was financially feasible,” said
Gallot, “we would certainly go
with the Daroff design.”
Congress members were dis­
tressed that moving the book­
store to the new proposed build­
ing would hurt the image of
Drexel as a whole.
Robyn Gershenhoff, presi­
dent, said, “There is a lot of con­
cern that Creese needs work
done to i t ... We have no sense
of conmiunity as it is, and a strip
mall won’t improve that.”
Although most concerns cen­
tered around the lack of commu­
nity and pride in Drexel’s stuSee CONGRESS on page 3

Daily Pennsylvanian new spapers go **poof/*
S t e v e E sc o tt
C o lu m n ist
Most of the Daily Pennsylvanians that were distributed on April
15 throughout the University of Pennsylvania campus disappeared
shortly after their distribution around 7:30 a.m. Apparently a racial­
ly motivated incident, thousands of yesterday’s papers were thrown
in dumpsters to protest “institutional racism.”
Fliers were posted along Locust Walk stating,‘The Black Com­
munity has come together to make a statement... We are not will­
ing to accept the blatant disrespect and disregard exhibited towards
the Black Community by the DP [Daily Pennsylvanian], the admin­
istration, and/or any independent entities affiliated with the Univer­
sity. Sometimes inconvenience is worth the price.” Four AfricanAmerican students were caught throwing away the newspapers.
None were arrested, and no charges will be brought against them.
The person(s) in charge of the “statement,” if caught, will have
to face charges of violating a campus regulation which states: “The
confiscation of publications (Mi campus is inconsistent with Univer­
sity policies and procedures, and with the ideals of the University.
It is inconsistent with the University Guidelines on Open Expres­
sion ... Members of the University community who are responsible
for confiscating publications should expect to be held accountable.”
The Daily Pennsylvanian, an editorially and financially indepen­
dent newspaper, prints 14,000 papers daily. However, an additional
6,000 were reprinted and distributed to the dorms, to other key
locations, and by hand, at the expense of the DP. Some more papers
were recovered by faculty and returned to stands.
Although no official stateinent has been made by the organiza­
tion responsible for throwing away the papers, members of DP’s
staff feel that ^ incident invol^^g ah opinion column written by
Greg Pavlik ixiiy have bewi the cause. In his column, Pavlik ques­
tioned the Univanity on charging white students with racial harass­
ment for dumping water put of a window on one or more black stu­
dents. As a result, Pavlik himself was charged with racial harass­
ment. The charges on all students were dropped. “We can only
assume that the Pavlik incident was involved,” said a member of
the DP staff.
C ity proposes 1994 budget
N ews D esk
City Council is now considering the proposed $2.4 billion fiscal
year 1994 operating budget. The budget proposes no change in
major taxes and proposes to cut operating costs by m a^gem ent
improvements and some service reductions. The proposed budget
does not rely on any funding from the Pennsylvania Intergovern­
mental Cooperation Authority (PICA).
The proposed budget is a key element of the proposed Five-Year
’Ian for fiscal years 1994-98, the second five-year plan prepared by
the city, as required by state law establishing PICA. Upon adoption
by the City Council, the budget and plan will be submitted to PICA
for approval.

On Tuesday and Wednesday,
April 13 and 14, Drexel held its
third annual Career Fair.
It marked the first year that
graduate and professional
schools were part of the Career
Fair. There were representatives
from area schools such as Hah­
nemann University, LaSalle Uni­
versity, University of Pennsylva­
nia and St. Joseph’s University,
as well as from the University of
Baltimore, Florida Institute of
Technology and Manhattan Col­
lege. Students and alumni were
invited. On W ednesday, the
employers took over the Career
Fair. There were information
tables from such employers as
PNC Bank, the Sony Corpora­
tion, Coopers and Lybrand and
Scott Paper Company.

hard to make sure that the
graduation program is really
first rate . . . and that it’s a pro­
gram of style and grace.
Things are in the process of
solidifying although they are
not absolutely c o n c re te.”
Although there are some inter­
esting prospects for a speaker,
there has been no confirmation
on that yet. More answers to
specific questions about gradu­
ation will be available within
the next couple of weeks. If
seniors wish to give sugges­
tions regarding the graduation
cerem ony, they should give
them to Dr. Arthur Joblin, chair
of the graduation committee.
The possibility of a new out­
door recreational facility on*
campus was the next topic of
discussion. B reslin said that
there was a question about
where the facility should be. A
possible sight is the area
between 32nd and 33rd streets.
Breslin hopes that the facility
will be ready for September. He
also noted that there is going to
be renovation of the basketball
courts behind Kelly Hall.
One student inquired about
the CAARD system . Carol
Stanley, director of OSIR, said,
“they are in a fact-finding stage
at this point.” She emphasized,
“This is a significant project, I
believe it is a radical change in
the way the University will do
business.” Stanley believes that
the main objective is to service
the customers. Some signifciant
features w ill be autom ated

years to implement the CAARD
system.

On April 23 at 8:00 p.m., one day after their self-produced debut
album. Bag, is released nationally, the band God Street Wine will
play in the Creese Sunken Quad. Drummer Tomo explained that the
band gets its influences from everyone from Duke Ellington to the
Red Hot Chili Peppers. Tomo went on to describe the band’s range
of music as “challenging for the listeners and the players.”
The concert is sponsored by E.Y.E. Openers, and is free to the

Police were called to break up a student protest that involved 30
lemale students who bared their breasts during a student govern­
ment meeting at Rutgers University’s Douglass College.
Sophomore Keiry Riordan said the demonstration was to [votest
the student government’s treatment of some of the students, which
included “gaveling down” students who attempt to question author­
ity in meetings.
Six University administrators sit ready to address the concerns o f assembled students.

Congress discusses a new constitution and upcoming elections

dent union, other members noted
that the already lacking green
space on campus would be hurt
further by the new building.
When Gallot informally asked if
any member of Congress sup­
ported the idea of the retail com­
plex on Market Street, only one
hand was raised.
C hris G razioso, Congress
vice president and treasurer,
stated that the administration’s
only response to last w eek’s
motion was to send Gallot to
Monday’s meeting.
Diana Hackney, adviser to
Congress, made a presentation at
the meeting, in regards to a pos­
sible new Honesty Policy. She
agreed with students that cheat­
ing has become a problem in
classes, especially at the fresh­
man and s(^homore levels.
M ost of the discussion
involved standardizing test pro­
cedures. Several Congress mem­
bers stated that professors
deserved part of the blam e,
although responsibility should
ultimately fall to the students.
Hackney suggested that mem­
bers should, “come up with a
process that will express the
interests of faculty, staff, as well
as students.”
Hackney then moved on to
changes that have been approved
in the University’s alcohol poli­
cy. The new policy was passed
by the presidential cabinet, but
h ^ to be looked at by lawyers to
insure its validity.
It was decided that publica­
tions, like The Triangle, are
allowed to advertise alcoholic
beverages, and that such adver­
tising is not in violation of the
alcohol policy.
The current policy of not
allowing a fee to be charged at
the door for events where alco­
hol is served will be changed.
‘T o account for groups like the
senior c la ss,” said Hackney,
w ritten approval from the
administration will allow a fee
to be charged.
A clause has also been added
that allows 21-year-old foreign
students to use any form of state
or federal identification. Prob­
lems existed in the old policy
with some foreign students
being hassled for not having a
state ID.
In addition, the new policy
more clearly states that non­
alcoholic beverages and other
food must be available at events
with alcohol.
Jack Kiefer, newly appointed
graduate assistant to the Office
of Student Life, announced that
Drexel will be hosting a commu­
nity service week the week of
April 19.
C hristal K ozloski, student
provost, announced that changes
had been made to D rex el’s
financial aid system. A quality
imp*ovement team, or QIT, con­
sisting of members of OSIR, the
Financial Aid Office, and others
had made a presentation to Con­
gress several weeks ago to dis­
cuss these changes.
The QIT’s goal was to reduce
the amount of time it took for
financial aid award letters to be
mailed out. Drexel takes nearly
twice as long as other schools to
get their letters out. The new
system would be faster, and
would put more financial aid
credits on tuition bills. This
would mean that students would
not have to calculate their own
contributions to the bill.
Kozloski also announced that
the lighting in the Dragon’s Den
should be improved soon. “We
are looking at some sort of quick
fix, until renovations are com­
plete,” said Kozloski.
The senior class announced
that its gift, a $15,000 marble
clock, will
placed someplace
on the grassy area south of the
Korman Center. The class will
be doing fund-raising to help pay
for the clock by selling bricks
which will be placed at the base
of the clock. Each brick pur­
chased w ill have space for
engraving.
Jennifer Sherman, senior congressperson-at-large, also an­
nounced that two final gradua­
tion speakers received invitations
to speak. Hillary Clinton and
W hoopi G oldberg were both
invited to speak to the class of
’93 at ctMnmencement.
A vote was taken on whether
or not to raise the student activity
from $75 to $100. The 33% raise
will generate some $114,000 for
use by student organizaticxis and
services. Grazioso said, “We will
try to get away from funding
only special interest projects and
fund more University-wide pro­
jects.” The motion to increase
the fee was passed 17-1-1.
The second vote of the
evening was a motion to allocate
$2000 to help pay for phones to
be placed in University build­
ings. The phones will allow stu­
dents to call professors
and other University
offices upon entering a
building. The motion
passed unanimously.
Congress
also
passed a motion 8-3-5
which
allocates
$12,000 to pay the
salary of a newly cre­
ated part-time position
of Congress. The new
employee, called the
Organization Finance
O fficer, w ould be
responsible for keep­
ing track of the financial records
of more than 100 of Drexel’s stu­
dent organizations.
In response to the vote, Gershenhoff said, “I can’t believe
$12,000 just flew through here
... We fought for weeks over
$2,000 for the dragon costume,”
a reference to Congress’ paying
for Drexel’s new mascot.
G razioso also introduced
changes to the current student
organization financial guide­
lines. M ost o f the guidelines
remained unchanged, but a few
minor things were changed.
A new com m ittee was
formed, called the Student Orga-
would be responsible for debt
payment. The new guidelines
passed 17-0-2.
Student Vice President for
Institutional Advancem ent
Denise Hadley issued a response
to concerns at last week’s meet­
ing that some staff members in
the Office of Institutional
A dvancem ent
were
required to sign in and out
of work. “The policy is
there so that if emergen­
cies come up, people who
are out of ^ e office can
be located,” said Hadley.
Nancy O ’ Leary, stu­
dent dean of design arts,
stated that the Interior

tion. O ’Leary stated,
“One of the main reasons
we lost it was because of

only a handful of schools in the
nation w hich had had this
accreditation.
The next Congress meeting

would be required to scientiHcally prove that the policy is

If the reg u la tio n is not

would be required to nullify

On Wednesday, April 14 at
7:00 p.m., in the Living Arts
Lounge o f C reese S tudent
Center, Kristin Dawkins from
the Institute for Agricultural
and Trade Policy spoke about
the n eg ativ e a ffe c ts o f the
North A m erican Free Trade
A greem ent on the e n v iro n ­
ment.
The event was sponsored by
E.Y .E. O peners in honor of
E arth M onth. The N orth
American Free Trade Agree­
m ent (N A FT A ), is a trade
agreement signed by the Unit­
ed States, Mexico and Canada.
Former president Bush signed
the agreem ent in December,
but it is not legally binding
until Congress approves it.
Dawkins said that one prob­
lem with the treaty is that it
does n o t in clu d e prom ises
made by Bush to environmen­
tal groups. T hese prom ises
include: parallel negotiations
that would take place for envi­
ronm ental protection, funds
and laws that would be set up
to clean up hazardous situa­
tions at the US-Mexican bor­
d e r an environmental impact
assessment of the treaty, and a
clause that would not oblige
any country to lower its envi­
ronmental standards.
Dawkins said that another
Dawkins said that sim ilar
actions w ould p o ssib ly be
taken against other U.S. bans
such as those on pesticides and
food additives.
Dawkins said proving that a
safety or environmental regu­
lation is necessary is very dif­
ficult, and “you can find a sci­
en tist to defend alm ost any
position you want.”
Clinton had said that he will
not renegotiate NAFTA, but he
will conduct p arallel ag ree­
ments in the areas of environ­
ment and labor.
D aw kins said th a t sin c e
Clinton seems to be receptive
to public opinion, it is impor­
tant that the p ublic express
their opinions about NAFTA
to their congressional repre­
sentatives.
Dawkins said that p art o f
the solution to NAFTA is for
the p ublic to be aw are and
knowledgeable of the policies
it entails. Dawkins said that “it
is not in the reg u lar m edia.
You have to search out the
facts.”

D rexel is looking to r e f i­
nance its bond issues and hoped
to increase its SNP rating in
order to be viewed as a strong
institution. According to Gallot,
this would result in more busi­
nesses being willing to invest in
the University and lenders loan­
ing more money to the Univer­
sity at low interest rates.
The rating is down one step
from its previous rating of an
“A-,” which Drexel received in
Jan., 1991.
At th at tim e, D rexel was
experiencing enrolhnent insta­
bility similar to that which the
University is currently experi­
encing.
SNP said that Drexel man­
agement is excellent, but Gallot
cited enrollment instability as
the main reason for the rating
decline.
Gallot said that he expected a
lower rating, and that the Uni­
versity plans to reapply for a
new rating in one and a half
years, or sooner if enrollment
figures go up.

At Brown U niversity in
Rhode Island, students known as
tlie Sexual A ssault Peer
Educators act out a date
at a
residence hall, while campus
police offer w om en’s selfdefense classes at the student
union.
At the University of Florida in
G ainesville, counselors with
Sexual A ssault Recovery
Services lead men’s rape-awareness groups at fraternity houses.
In the wake of increasing vio­
lent crimes on the nation’s col­
lege campuses, school officials
are being pressured to alert stu­
dents to the risks of university
life, particularly in regard to
rape.
In some cases, students who
are frustrated by the judicial sys­
tem’s limitations in dealing with
date rape cases are taking mat­
ters into their own hands.
About 20 male students at the
University of Virginia formed a
secret group called The Southern
Society to ccmfront alleged cam­
pus rapists. According to cam­
pus newspaper reports, group
members intervene only at the
request of the victim, who must
contact them through a newspa­
per ad. The group’s founder,
who said his sister was raped,
told the Cavalier Daily diat the
group was non-violent and that
its intention was to help women
who were afraid to press
charges.
Anonymous fliers, posters and
graffiti are being employed more
now by women who are angry
about date rape and are intent on
publicizing the names of alleged
peipetrators.
At Yale University, about 20
fliers identifying a male student
as a rapist were posted on a
classroom building. However,
no victim has contacted campus
police to report a rape, even
anonymously. **It was sort of
m ysterious,” said M artha
M atzke, d irecto r o f public
affairs.
At other universities, women
have listed the names of alleged
rapists and fraternities on walls
in public areas. **Apple Pi R£q)es
W omen— Stay Away!” read
recent g raffiti in a wom en’s
restroom at Drexel University in
Philadelphia.
According to campus newspa­
per The Triangle, the graffiti
appeared after a female student
reported to police Jan. 31 that
she had been assaulted at the
Alpha Pi Lam bda (known as
“Apple Pi”) fraternity house.
Carol Bohmer, associate pro­
fessor o f sociology at the
University of Pittsburgh, said the
reactions might be attributed to
fhistration.
“I suspect they feel they’re
not getting anywhere with the
other methods,” said Bohmer,
co-author of the forthcoming
book, “R { ^ Crisis on Campus.”
*'I think a lot of women are
finding it very frustrating that
their complaints, particularly in
regard to date rape, are not being
taken seriously.”
Universities are also facing
legal challenges and constraints
in regard to rape. Laws passed in
response to brutal crimes at col­
leges and un iv ersities have
addressed the issue of intensified
campus crime. Among them is
the 1990 Student Right-to-Know
and Campus Security Act, the
result of a legislative battle by
the parents o f a Lehigh
University freshm an who, in
1986, was found raped,
knifed and suangled in her drain
room.
The federal law requires all
U.S. colleges and universities
receiving federal funds to sup­
ply violent crime statistics annu­
ally.
Those 1991 crim e reports,
supplied by 2,400 colleges and
universities and released last fall
for the first time, shattered the
image of the nation’s campuses
as oases of learning.
The reports showed almost

where counselors worked with
them, contacting local authori­

said counselors were also sent to
the students’ residence hall to
assist other students.
Ruiz said that along with cri­
sis intervention, the program’s
counselors provide sexual
assault peer education programs
that help students understand
their fears and how to cope with
a sense of loss of control.
The university is also devel­
oping a model program targeting
male students, who, studies have
shown, are responsible for most
of the sexual assaults and rapes
on campus. Ruiz said that many
men are reluctant to participate
in rape-awareness programs, but
outreach is beginning to work.
“We’re getting more calls from
fraternities now,” Ruiz said.
Joseph Weinberg, a rape-prevention educator with a specialfocus on men, said he is not sur­
prised by male students’ resis­
tance. He also encounters resis­
tance from fraternity members
and athletes when he conducts
r^-aw areness sessions on cam­
puses nationwide.
“W e’re challenging deeply
held notions of what it means to
be a man in our society,”
Weinberg said. “When you go
into a group and say, *Hello, we
are rapist pigs. Now, what are
we going to do about it? ,’ it
doesn’t elicit a happy response.
But all the defensiveness, all the
woofing and other male stuff we
get is critical to the process.”
“I tell men, ‘If you continue
to buy into the model of tradi­
tional masculinity, it is very pos­
sible that you will conunit a sex­
ual assault.’”
Matzke, of Yale University,
said she sees the various reac­
tions—the fliers, the vigilante
group, “take back the night” ral­
lies and disagreement about judi­
cial board procedures—as part
of the struggle that American
society is going through as it
redefines rape and relations
between men and women.
Women have felt violated and
powerless because date rape has
been treated carelessly in the
past, but they are now taking a
stronger role in changing the
way cases are handled.
“Women are trying to say,
‘The old ways don’t work for
us’,” Matzke said.

Let the dialogue continue
University VP and Treasurer Freddie Gallot addressed the con­
cerns of Student Congress members this Monday evening. His
appearance was in response to the “demanding” resolution passed
without objection at last week’s meeting. Many people were
impressed that Student Congress members showed so much cohcem and asked so many intelligent questions. But this constructive
debate must not end with a simple, “Sorry, we cannot do it right
now.” It may not be financially feasible to expand the Creese Stu­
dent Union (CSU). But a retail complex at the old site of
Cavanaugh’s is not the complete solution. Student Chief Justice
Livingood had a novel idea: use the revenue from the retail com­
plex to improve conditions at the CSU.
A tug-of-war between Student Congress and the administrati(Hi
will not turn the CSU into the “really cool” student union that stu­
dents at UC-San Diego enjoy. Both sides need to drop the r c ^ and
meet in the middle. It is possible to enhance the CSU, have a suc­
cessful retail coii4)lex and remain afloat financially for the next five
years. Only a fool would locdc at a problem and see only two solu­
tions. We are taught to find the best solution to problems. It will
take lots of creative ideas, time and energy. But it can be done.
Enrollment problems have plagued Drexel fw some time now. A
retail complex alone will not solve this problem. An expanded stu­
dent uni(Hi will. Continued dialogue and inclusion of studrats in
meetings about the proposed retail center will increase the chances
of coming to closure on this issue more quickly. The administration
is fiiUy aware that investocs
shy away f r ^ devlofwg a retail
complex on a campus where not one Student Congress member
supports the idea. It*s too bad the investors did not ask what the stu­
dents wanted. Maybe the best way to know what is best for the stu­
dents is to ask them directly. It is no secret that a successful student
union combines retail space and student organization space in the
same area, but separated by open space. Trying to locate retail
space away from a student union is a Rising hand. The Shops at
I'lenn is a classic example. It is now in serious financial trouble.
Hopefully, Drexel will leam £rom Penn’s nustake. Enough said.
Don't eveif try it
At Penn this week, the campus saw the cuhnination of months of
bade and forth word throwing between the Daily Pennsylvanian
and Mack students. Black students are accusing the newq^aper and
the university of “institutional racism” as a result of several opinion
columns that have appeared in the paper in the past months.
Charges of racism were drc^^^ed against the author of the opinion
columns recently. Then most of the 14,000 p ^ r s that were deliv­
ered on Penn’s campus Thursday morning were found dumped in
trash cans. Four black students were apprehended by police. Unfor­
tunately, students at Penn do not have televisions. And they missed
the spectacular news coverage of a riot in Los Angeles last year
after police officers were acquited in the beating of Rodney King.
They have chosen to leam a lesson the hard way. Reports of burn­
ing newspapers, dousing water on the student author and other
strange acts have buzzed Penn’s campus.
What is wrong here? Maybe some students at Penn are so smart
they skipped kindergarten ^together, and never got the chance to
read “All I need to know, I learned in kindergarten." Grow up.

Editor:
As the student coordinator for
the West Philadelphia Tutoring
Project, I would like to thank all
Drexel students who participat­
ed in bur program. Our volun­
teer tutors have helped to enrich
the lives of students in W est
Philadelphia, and have provided
a tangible and significant ser­
vice to the local community.
Last semester we provided local
public schools with 65 tutors.
This sem ester we hope to
involve twice as many students
in our program. Philadelphia
teachers continue to request
tutors of all educational back­
grounds. Anyone in the Drexel
conununity who is interested in
helping young people reach
their highest potential is encour­
aged to join. All you need is a
genuine concern and an hour to
volunteer each week. T rans­
portation is provided by Drexel
vans through the Community
Relations Office.
In addition, we are establish­
ing a mentoring program around
non-academ ic activities. The
mentoring program is designed
to provide guidance and support
through out-of-school activities.
such as taking a child to a cul­
tural event, a tour of our cam­
pus, or a sports activity. Men­
tors and students w ill be
matched by interests.
Both programs have flexible
hours and can be worked around
your schedule. For more infor­
mation on either of these pro­
grams, please call Community
Services, a Division for Student

Painting priorities are in wrong order
Editor:
I am currently a freshman at
Drexel and I have yet to figure
out how things work at this
school. You can see the MacAlister custodians standing around
chatting instead of woridng, and
watch em ployees leave the
Comptroller’s office in groups to
“have a smoke.” But the thing
that really bothers me is the
painting system. If you are an
observant person you may have
noticed this slow process of
painting.
The walls on the right in the
front of the Main Building are
being painted a peach color to
match the columns. These walls
used to be green and there is no
aparent reason for the change
except to match the columns.
The first problem I have is
when I sit in my political science
class (Curtis 250> there are paint
chips ^ lin g on my desk the ceil­
ing has gotten so bad! Secondly,
the new painting project was
started weeks ago and — if the
reason for repainting was to
impress newcomers when they
arrived — half painted walls will
do nothing but make them won­
der!
I pay all of my tuition bills
and you cannot tell me that
Drexel does not have the money
to paint the ceilings and walls
that are in such horrendous con­
dition! I can just hope that the
ceiling has been painted recently
enough that these are not lead
paint chips!

them to know that I’m beating it
for a reason.
More often than not, there is
one word heard when an individ­

chooses to say something about
the younger generation (our gen­
eration). That word is “apathet­
ic.”
We are viewed as a very apa­

One recent event that sticks
out in my mind is the Fireside
Chat that was held this past
Tuesday in the Creese Center.
This was a perfect opportunity
for any student to show up and
ask President Breslin anything
their litde heart desired. G ^ te d ,

Editor:
The following expresses my
own personal convictions as a
wretched creature of God and a
miserable and sinful servant of
Mary, the blessed virgin mother
of God, and my mother. It does
not in any way, manner or form
reflect the views of the Dean of
the Evening and University Col­
lege or o f any other D rexel
employee thereof. I write it for
the sole purpose o f paying
hcxnage to God and giving unto
Him the greater honor and glory
He is due.
I beg for forgiveness for any
trespasses I might cause. I only
seek to obey and do the will of
God. “For what does it profit a
man, if he gain the whole world,
but ruin or lose it himself? For
whoever is ashamed of Me and
My words, of Him will the son
of Man be ashamed when He
comes in His glory and that of
the Father and the holy angels.”
a u k e 9, 25-26)
What staggering figures were
revealed to me personally for the
first time in Professor Verzilli’s
letter to you in the April 9 Trian­
gle, If indeed President Breslin
and the other leaders of our
beloved Drexel University are
being held blind by whatever
unseen forces or powers that be,
thus it becomes our moral duty
and obligation as faithful follow­
ers and believers of the the
Truth, Justices and Charity of
Jesus C hrist, our Sovereign
King, to straighten the paths of
our erring brethren. It is no
IcHiger the time to sit still and be
quiet. It is time to act and take
drastic measures.
Please let us hasten to con­
vene the university assembly and
resolve to stop the follies that are
about to occur because of our
superior’s {^parent blindness. I
mention specifically the impend­
ing merger of the Evening and
University College with the Col­
lege of Arts and Sciences. We
m ust not com prom ise the
integrity, wisdom and ideals of
Drexel’s founder and endeavor
to preserve and continue the tra­
dition and services that adult
learners and members of the uni­
versity community have come to
expect, cherish and admire in
this great and historic institution.
I believe that The Evening
and University College should
be a separate entity, auto­
nomous, bearing its own name
and having its own dean. I say
this because of the trend, which
to a large extent keeps the whole
university aloft and afloat: that
the present and future generation
of students in the United States
will most likely come from the
ranks of poor, w orking-class
adults and minorities who will
precisely opt for a college of
their own such as the one that
already exists in Drexel’s halls.
And for such people are God’s
Kingdom made of and why His
mercy is upon us.
To take and kill the Evening
and University College as a sep­
arate, absolute, integral unit
from the rolls of Drexel Univer­
sity is to literally choke and
extinguish the heart and soul of
A nthony J. D rex el’s dream ,
thereby casting off the grace and
blessing granted to him by God
more than a hundred years ago.
Let us not fall prey to the
hands of perdition. Together we
must act now to restore all things
in Christ. We must not stay luke­
warm. Either stand at the right
Hand of God or at His left. For
no one can serve two masters at
the same time. We must implore
the Most High to enlighten and
sanctify us during tbese difficult
times.
Natividad Pille
Credentials Coordinator
Evening and University College
just a plain student. However,
that doesn’t change the fact that
the number of adm inistrators
there outnumbered the number
of students. Come on folks, the
student body which is 99 percent
m ade up of people from the
younger generation was looking
pretty pathetic with such a poor
showing. Yes, it was a beautiful
day on Tuesday. Yes, I would
have rather been playing volley­
ball also. But I fail to understand
why : : many people missed the
chance to c o n ^ n t Breslin, even
if it was just to ask him why he
still insists on wearing bow ties.
Nicholas Flocco, director of
financial aid, was present at the
meeting. If there is one thing I
hear people whining and moan­
ing about it’s the financial aid
system at Drexel. I can’t believe
no one showed up and threw a
guilt trip to Mr. Flocco asking
him if he is going to give them
enough financial aid so they can
stay in school next year. I mean,
the timing couldn’t have been
any more perfect. How ever,
there was almost no discussion
of financial aid.
Furthermore, the fact that very
few people showed up at the fire­
side chat gives off the impres­
sion that everything is peachy
keen. However, this is not the
case. Not a day goes by when I
don’t hear someone complaining
about what a terrible school
Drexel is. I should m ake it
known here that although I feel
this university is far from per­
fect, I believe it is an excellent
institution. Trust me, the number
of students present at the fireside
chat was not representative of
the number of complaints I hear.
Granted, I do my own share of
complaining — but then again I
was there. If the complaints had

I’ve decided to respond to “A.
Disgusted Reader” again this
week. The reason I chose A. Dis­
gusted again is because this indi­
vidual was so exacting in his/her
accusations. “It’s your type of
thinking that has put this county
[sic] into deep financial debt.”
Oh, really*^
both the deficit and its interest. In
fact, due to Reaganomics, the
economy grew 11.8 percent, the
greatest peacetime growth our
country has ever had.
Another reason is our society.
As I discussed last week, people
do not understand that they have
to stay in school longer and work
harder today than they did ten
years ago. If you want to have
money and be successful, you
have to go to college and get a
degree in something that there is
a demand for. That means that
English majors aren’t going to
pull down the same pay as a
chemical engineer.
If you really are worried that
much about how much you make,
then you should major in some­
thing that makes money, not
s(Mnething that you decide is your
speed. If you can’t take the hard
work of a high-paying field, then
don’t blame the people in those
fields for their ability to do it.
Don’t expect them to lower their
standards because somebody
wants to make the money in that
field, but doesn’t have the ability.
last note: on a percentage
basis, family income levels rose
across the boards during the Rea­
gan years. Both the richest and
p o o ^ t fifths of our society saw a
twelve percent rise in their
inccmie. Sorry, A. Disgusted, but
what you had said was simply
wrong.
Comics in T he Triangle
are seriously too serious
What’s the deal with all the
“serious” comics running in The
Triangle? First came “Angel,”
and now we have “The Drag­
on.” You’ll have no problem
finding them in the comics sec­
tion, just look for the black ink.
Jo h n G R m m
These comics use plenty of
solid black ink. This is because
they are dark comics, tackling
dark issues. Like when Angel
had a sword fight with Satan last
term. At least, I think that’s
what happened. These comics
are so serious that they’re hard
to understand.
I’ve never been a fan of seri­
ous comic strips. Does anyone
actually enjoy “Prince Valiant”?
Com ics are supposed to be
funny, and the (xily thing fumiy
about “The D ragon” and
“Angel” is how bad they are.
it’s like watching a movie that
tie s too hard to be serious and
ends up being ridiculed.
An excerpt ifrom last week’s
“The D ragon”: “Rum ors of
demons and nether spawns from
hell were abound. It is time for
me to once again leave my
peaceful village and delve back
into the reahn of warriors, gods,
and magic. I must once [again]
become The Dragon.”
N ether spawns from hell?
What the hell are they (joke—
get it?)? “Angel” also has lots of
demons and devils. What ever
happened to comic ships about
little kids or talking cats?
Maybe I’m wrong, but I think
most of us look to the comics
for humor, not two-bit melodra­
ma printed with more ink than
the phone book.
I know this column probably
seems a'bit harsh compared to
my usual subject matter (booger
picking, 7-Eleven employees,
etc.), but the comics are an inte­
gral part of any good newspa­
per. That’s why I never read
The New York Times or USA
Today; neither carries any
(xxnics. Not to mention the fact
that the The Times is a disgrace­
ful example of yellow journal­
ism and sensationalism.
r i n not too worried about
getting any hate mail over this,
because I can’t imagine anyone
out there who actually enjoys
that crap. W ho w ould’ve
dreamed that “Zwebl5” would
be so deariy missed?
S y m p a th y a n d g u ilt b r in g sp a r e c h a n g e to c h ild
I have been at a loss for a sub­
ject for a column this week. It
isn’t obligatory that I write one
A aro n Z .

every single week, but I enjoy it
so I try to. So I was going around
to my buddies at The Triangle,
half jokingly, asking them for a
subject to write on, to no avail.
Just as I was about to give up
hope and ju st wait until next
week for some inspiration, it
turned out a homeless mother in
front of 7-Eleven gave me what I
needed.
I noticed her right off because
it was cold out and she had a
child in a stroller. Then I realized
that she was in the customary
begging comer with the custom­
ary look of despair on her face.
The one that sort of says, “My
grandma is dying in the hospit^
and I just spent my last quarter
calling her.”
So unable to circumvent the
situation, I had to stroll headlong
into what I knew would be an
inevitable request for money.
So what? Everyone has dealt
with this before and we’ve all
seen our own hardships. Who
worries, about bums and why
would I bother dedicating a
whole column to it? Well, like the
rest of society. I’ve turned down
my fair share of scraggly bums
asking for pocket change. I have
given them food but no money.
We all wonder what they will
spend it on. But lately I wonder if
I will end up in front of a SEPTA
bus like the student from Penn
after turning down a bum for
cash. But hey, anything can hap­
pen, and if I was scared of the
city to begin with I wouldn’t be
hundreds of miles from home at
Drexel.
Back to the subject. I did give
the lady the change in my pocket.
Not bemuse she called me sir, not
because her coat looked a decade
old, but because she had a kid in
a stroller bundled up against the
cold. Not knowing what world
awaited it and how it would prob­
ably grow up in poverty, not
knowing what it is to have a good
life, and it would probably carry
cm its mother’s legacy. I gave her
mcxiey out of sorrow and guilL
Only after I was a fair bit past
them (Ud I think about what I had
just done. Where as I normally
won’t even answer a bum, with­
out thinking I just gave away one
of the last dollars in my posses­
sion. I wanted to go back and tell
her I only gave her money
because she had a child. I wanted
to go back and tell her she had no
right to have a child if she can’t
even support herself. I wanted to
go back and tell her a lot of
things, but none of them would
have made a difference. All she
has in life is her baby, a little
change, a lot of time, and sex. If
she’s ended up on the streets,
chances are she doesn’t have a
whole lot of responsibility to
begin with, and telling her to be
careful will just pass right on by
her as she scopes out the “Sev”
for the next person to plead
change from.
I’m not really sure where I am
gomg with this, just sort of ram­
bling about responsibility, guilt,
life, and society. I am struggling
through school, payments, fami­
ly, the worid, and all the while
trying to get through it all and
find a little bit of good or happi­
ness somewhere. And unless I
blind m yself to what is really
going on, I can complain about
Clinton, or racism, or spending
cuts all I want, but in the end it
does not a bit of good getting
some common sense into home­
less people, or getting compas­
sion into those of us more fortu­
nate.
It’s us versus the world ...
everything else is sec(xidaiy.

upon us. After many delays and
much anxiety we Greeks finally
get the opportunity to have some
healthy, non-sexual, sober fun.
But do not think that we Greeks
are exclusionists, we plan to
G o rd o n /.
Emis
engage in all of this eye-popping
amusement in full view of the
pubic, oops! I mean public.
I think we will take this
opportunity to show all of those
Greek critics that not only can
we behave in a civilized manner
but we can maintain it for an
entire week. Bring on the scruti­
ny. I dare any of you Greekbashers to come and spectate
any of our events and try to find
some form of deviant behavicH-.
We do not need this opportu­
nity to prove anything to any­
body for any reason. But we will
be involved in so much whole­
some goodness, regardless of
outside interest, we thought we
would extend an open invitation
for any simple-minded, ignorant
critics to attend. We do not want
to gorge ourselves in all that joy
and appear to be selfish. So all
of the pin-headed clowns who
live only to jum p down our
throats can join the festivities,
since we will be competing any­
way.
For those of you who have
not seen our schedule of events,
let me give you a preview ... it
sounds very enticing. For the
purposes of demonstrating our
maturity and responsibility we
have chosen to partake in some
new and improved events for
your viewing pleasure. Instead
of the traditional tricycle race,
egg toss, chariot race, arm
w restling, and tug-of-w ar
events, we will sponsor naked
law nm ow er races, shaving
cream -filled condom toss,
shaven and oiled sheep wrest­
ling, tug-of-Iong rubber pleasure
devices, and stale beer enema
contests. I apologize to those of
you who suggested the anal
retentive obstacle course, lubri­
cated bat spins, and the bimbo
parade. We appreciate your
thoughtful suggestions but the
Greek Week committee could
not allow such tasteless and
degrading activities in the sched­
ule (Although we are consider­
ing holding those events at one
of our upcoming Greek-only
parties).
W hat a lineup of new and
exciting activities. How can we
fail to add benefit to the already
jovial and intoxicating, no pun
intended, social attractions on
our beloved campus? Do not

In order to make life easier
for my pocketbook, I moved in
with a friend who lives adjacent
to a Drexel parking lot. Having
my mother’s car broken into a
few weeks before, I wanted the
car where I could keep a close
eye on it so I parked it in the
parking lot out back. I was
informed that they hardly ticket
and there are numerous cars in
the parking lot without parking
permits, so I was not in a hurry
to purchase one (I wanted to
wait until my tax refund found
its way into my pocketbook).
spending time on my pages, I
come home to find my car miss­
ing. Following the initial panic
attack, I go out and get the
phone number for Lew Blum
towing to track down my car.
When the attendant at Lew
Blum informed me that my car
was there, a big sigh of relief
escaped. I would rather it be
towed than stolen, being that it
is a lot easier to explain a tow­
ing fee than a missing car. I had
to pay a whopping seventy-five
dollars, which, when you don’t
have a job, is a |ot to get my car
back. I then decided that it
would be helpful to get my
parking permit a tad bit earlier
than planned. This happened on
Monday.

U nderage d rinking and
homelessness. Both of these
topics are problems in the state
of Pennsylvania, but technically
the problem comes down to the
individual townships and cities.
OaHERmCAMPBUL
So what am I babbling about
and how does it affect me? My
new co-op job is located at 13th
and M arket streets. W ithout
exaggerating, the 13th Street
SEPTA station of the MarketFrankford line and subway-surface line is being run like a
slum ber party shelter o f 100
plus hom eless p eo p le every
day. Don’t tell me to leave the
city of Philadelphia and move
to State College if 1 don’t like
it. Some grad student wrote a
letter to die Editor my freshman
year telling me to do that when
I w rote a colum n ab o u t the
homeless man who spent winter
term of 1991 on the com er of
32nd and Market.
Peihaps you may be familiar
with this SEPTA stop. Over our
spring break a hom eless man
was shot there by w hat was

been sufficiently represented the
meeting would have had to be
m oved to the gym nasium or
even the quad because the
Creese C enter w ould be too
small to hold everyone.
Just think for two seconds
about how scary it is that the
future of this country for the
most part is apathetic. W hat’s
going to happen twenty years
from now when there’s a matter
of life and death importance that
needs to be taken care of on a
sunny day? It would be a shame
if we let the downfall o f this
country be totally and complete­
ly the fault of our generation
because we didn’t care and felt
like playing volleyball on the
days when we should have been
caring about what was going on
around us.
If this example sounds ridicu­
lous, well it is. However, it all
adds up. A little negligence here
and forgetfulness there and in
the blink of an eye my examples
are reality. Also, anyone who
has half a clue about where our
country stands right now knows
that the older generation (which
is supposedly responsible) is
basically screwing up. If we are
as bad as they sometimes say we
are there may be nothing left for
our children to mess up because
we will have caused the down­
fall of an era.
People, we have to care
enough to know what’s going on
in. the world. As a group we
must be willing to give every
ounce of energy we can muster
to prove the older generation
wrong and that we do care as
much as we claim. We have to
make people believe in us, but
first we must believe in our­
selves.
reported as another homeless
man. I have watched people,
I’m not sure who they were,
coming in and feeding them. Is
the city of P h ilad elp h ia so
broke that we have to turn our
subways into shelters? In return
this is also hurting the economy
of Philadelphia. I’m afraid to
invite anyone, especially my
mother, to visit me at work if
they’re going to be exposed to
this possible danger and nause­
ating stench which devours the
13th St. station.
This article was due on
Wednesday, April 14 and after I
wrote it I got to see the front
page o f The P h ilad elp h ia
Inquirer the same day. Wow,
now that the Convention Center
is going to open in June, Mayor
Ed R endell is m oving the
homeless out of what they call
the 1234 concourse (named for
the building which I work in,
1234 Market Street.) Gosh, if it
was the 34th Street stop I bet
they would be here for the next
ten years. Anyway I heard from
a co-w orker o f m ine at the
Greater Philadelphia Chamber
of Commerce that the health
department is kicking them out
next week. The article also stat­
ed that many o f these **residents” of the 1234 concourse
are drug addicts. I feel even
safer going to work tomorrow.
I would gladly donate money
to them if I knew that it was
going to be used properly. We
already pay an extra percent in
taxes in Philadelphia and pay
ridiculous rates for SEPTA, but
this apparently doesn’t help.
From the decaying city of
Philadelphia I take you to the
suburbs where the cops have
nothing better to worry about
than underaged d rinking. I
come from a place where for
the most part you have to know
how to work your locker and a
tap by your freshman year of
high school.
My friends from home and I
have met many people from our
individual colleges who didn’t
start drinking until their senior
year of high school or even col­
lege but around us it was the
“accepted” norm to start early.
I’m not going to argue about
lowering the drinking age to 18.
Perhaps someone has statistics
to show how many hom eless
people were underage drinkers,
but that’s not my case either.
What I’m talking about are the
priorities in the state which fil­
ter out to the city.
For those o f you who are
from out of state, do you know
that in 1988 a law was passed
which says that if you are under
21 and are caught with alcohol
or a fake ID in Pa. you lose
your d riv e r’s license for 90
days for the first offense and a
whole year for the second
offense, whether it is driving or
car related or not?
I understand that this could
be a “motivator” for kids not to
drink or get caught if they’re
under 18 and in high school. I
mean everyone races to get
their driver’s license and Mom
and Dad can still ground you.
But what about when you legal­
ly become an adult at 18 and go
to college? What right do they
have to do this to us? These
young adults need their cars to
go to school and work. Sure,
you can get some special per­
mit, I think, to get to just those
two places but who’s college
experience is that basic? I know
this is probably to deter drunk
driving and encourage people to
wait until they are 21. I have
two friends who just found out
that they are losing their licens­
es in May because of underage
(20 years old) drinking, and I
would be too if I wasp’t such a
good talker, from an incident
which occurred at Penn State
last Septem ber. One o f my
friends will be 21 before it even
takes affect and the other will
be 21 a month and a half later.
We were w alking out of an
apartment building to another
party and not one of us even
had a set of car keys in her pos­
session. So guess who’s playing
chauffeur all summer while my
convicted friends can drink?
Does this make any sense?
This is my point. Why is the
state wasting their money on
cops to process and convict stu­
dents who are practically 21
anyway, when they should be
spending the money on things
like the homeless? Better yet, if
the cops don’t have any bigger
problem s in their community
why don’t they just raise the
fmes a little and send all of the
money to the cities which need
it? I know that my friend sent
$270 straight to the Penn State
Magistrate because I wrote the
check out for her.
Getting the homeless out of
the 13th Street subways is a
start, but Pennsylvania has got
to get its priorities in order and
worry less about easy targets
like college students and more
about people who really need
their attention like homeless
drug addicts establishing resi­
dency in subways.

1993 has an added schedule of events because it also takes place during National Voiunieerism Week.
It will include a yolunteerism lecture sponsored by Ronnie Manlin and the Powelton Village Civic Asso­
ciation spring clean-up. According to Greek Week Chairman Jim lill, money which was r a i ^ from
advertising in the Greek Week booklet will be donated to Drexel’s chapter of Habitat for Humanity.

Officially, there are 55 more
days to go until graduation day.
According to Senior Class Congressperson at Large Jennifer
Sherman, “There is a lot of woik
to be done by the senior class
before that time.”
As the senior class gets closer
to graduation the search for a
commencement speaker is in
high gear.
”Sherman said that University
President Dr. Richard Breslin
would like this year’s com ­
mencement speaker to definitely
be a woman, in part because
Drexel has never had a female
commencement speaker. Some
names that were suggested were
Barbara W alters and Whoopi
Goldberg, with Whoopi Gold­
berg being the primary choice.

The senior class gift this year,
which will be unveiled the day
before graduation, will be a
clock. The clock will be in the
grassy area on the top left of the
quad. The only numbers on the
face of the clock will be the nine
and the three, for the class of
’93. It will be a lamppost style
clock with four faces, readable
from every direction.
Fundraising for the class gift
began this week. The most likely
way to fundraise for this clock
will be by selling bricks to the
seniors and putting their names
on it, said Sherman. The bricks
will either be used as a patio
around, or a walkway up to the
clock.
Sherman said that the two
senior class events so far have
been a success. The bubble gum
machine was emptied of money
last week and contained $252.
This w ill continue to raise
money for the class until June 20
when the bubble gum machine
will be passed on to the junior
class.
The senior jail will return,
weather permitting, on April 20
through 22 in the quad. Other
senior class events scheduled for
the rest of the year are various
socials, a barbecue, the senior
class picture, the senior formal,
and other events which are yet to
be announced.
Cavanaugh’s is sponsoring a
“Days To d o ” party for seniors.
Drexel University does not
recognize any "Days to Go”
events. In the past the senior
class would get half the money
made but this year the senior
class will receive no proceeds
from it.

Special to T he TkiANGLE
Over the course of the last
three months, Drexel’s newly
formed Habitat for Humanity
chapter has worked to rehabili­
tate a property in West Philadel­
phia with Drexel students, facul­
ty and staff. In D ecem ber, a
property at 4961 Stiles Street
near the intersection of Lancaster
and Girard Avenues was adopted
by the chapter with the help of
H abitat’s W est P hiladelphia
affiliate.
Habitat is a G eorgia-based
non-profit organization which
buildis and rebuilds houses to be
sold to needy families. Tlie hous­
es are obtained from the city at
low cost or bought with fund­
raising money. Through donated
building materials and the over­
whelming efforts of many volun­
teers, as well as 500 hours of
work by the prospective family,
the houses turn from abandoned
shells into quality homes.
Work began in January and
will continue for up to a year.
Volunteers get involved in all
pentry to plumbing. Students get
together every Saturday and
Sunday at the site under the
supervision of two architectural
engineering students, Ted Swan­
son and David Beccaria.
During this project, the mem­
bers of the Habitat chapter will
be in need of building materials,
expertise, and m ost of all,
money. It is expected that costs
will run in the neighborhood of
$15,000. Currently, Habitat West
Philadelphia owns the row of
homes on Stiles Street between
49th and St. Bernard Streets and
is in the process of completely
transform ing the bom bed out
block into a neighborhood.
A general information meet­
ing for anyone interested in
donating time, labor, expertise,
materials or money will be held
on Wednesday, April 21, at 7:00
p.m. in 103 Disque Hall. For
more information, call Habitat at
895-6942 or stop by the office in
room 223 of the Creese Student
Center. Anyone interested in
pitching in is welcome to attend.

“How did your body make it through the winter?
Did you stay fit or did you. get a little flabby?” asks
Mia Fields of The Welhiess Center. If you need to
get yourself back into bathing suit form and want
to start an exercise program the Wellness Center
invites you to get a Microfit fimess profile.
According to Fields, a complete Htness profile
test includes a sequence of seven tests and takes
20-30 minutes to perform. The testing sequence is
blood pressure/resting heart rate, body weight,
body fat percentage, flexibility (sit and reach),
bicep strength and a submaximal aerobic
endurance test (stationary bicycle). At the conclu­
sion of the testing, the computer prints a fiuiess
profile report. This report ranks each of the test
scores according to age and sex and also calculates
an aggregate total fitness score. The fitness profile
is beneficial when someone is starting a fimess pro­
gram and needs a comprehensive baseline report
If you decide you would like to be tested on the
Miaofit, the committee advises that you dress in
athletic clothing for the Microfit test. Shorts, a
short sleeved t-shirt and sneakers are best. Do not
wear tights or one piece tops because they make it
difficult to obtain accurate skinfold measurements.
Abstain from food, tobacco, alcohol, and caffeine
for at least three hours prior to testing. Abstain
from vigorous physical exercise for at least four
hours prior to testing. It is best if the Microfit test
is the first exercise you perform for the day.
Consult your physician before taking the
Microfit test to make sure there are no restrictions.
The Center advises you to come relaxed. The tests
are done in private and all results are confidential.
To make an appointment for the Microfit fitness
test call the Wellness Center at 590-8987.

A wave of new alternative music is bombarding
the country; it would appear to be the new genera­
tion of rock and roll. Within this swath of new
music it takes a strong group with gusto and origi­
nality to stand out.
4 Non B londes’
debut album is Bigger,
Better, Faster, More!,
hardly representative of the wide variety of their
music. They most certainly are alternative, but they
don’t fall too far over to the point of outlandish­
ness. The band has quite an original feel, but not
one so warped that it makes Bigger, Better, Faster,
More! difficult to listen to or understand. Their
range encompasses everything from a bluesy sound
in
“Pleasantly
B lue” to the
down-to-earth sen­
timents of “Dear

Blonder Tongue Audio Baton •
The Swirlies
Produced by the Swirlies
The Swirlies of Cambridge,
M ass., can handle a loosely
strung bass as easily as they can
a Moog or TV sound bites. The
only things separating them from
recent musical antiheroes Cop
Shoot Cop are a lack of cynicism
(not a bad thing) and the incon­
sistent musical flow on Blonder
Tongue Audio Baton (not good).
“B ell” gets BTAB off to a
head-bobbing good start. The
m ulti-talented pair of Damon
Tutunjian and Seana Carmody
propel the song with plaintive
vocals and driving guitars.
On this album , however,
Swirlies jams using Sonic Youth
guitar tunings can wear out lis­
teners. Songs like “V igilant
Always” and “His Life of Acad­
emic Freedom,” all in the first
half of the album, concentrate a
bit too much on making noise,
not music. Though bassist and
radio manipulator Andy Bemick
is the band’s most consistent per­
former, his imaginative work is
often muddied by high volume.
Don’t toss BTAB, though: a
string of four songs in the
album’s latter half are worth the
price of admission alone. “Jere­
my Parker” has the yummiest
guitar riff since “Detachable
Penis,” and “Park the Car by the
Side of the R oad,” “Tree
Chopped Down,” and “Wrong
Tube” are damn near perfect
examples of moshable pop.
If this album had been thought
out a little longer, the Swirlies
might have been able to compen­
sate for a track list top-heavy
with lame musical exercises. But
want in a beautiful way, never
concerning them selves with
what will be hot or p(^ular.
The group’s aim was a deep,
moving feeling. They achieve an
enjoyable compilation of songs
that touch you, drawing you into
the sound. The wwds are poems
put to music, music written to
extract as much emotion and
lyrical depth as possible.
This new release is a relaxing
and enjoyable woik. The band’s
musical skills blend nicely with
the lead singer’s voice; quite lit­
erally, it feels as if the two were
created for each other. The songs
themselves would probably be
classified as soft rock or even
folk-rock, yet Hothouse Flowers’
sound is somehow unique.
Relaxing as it may be, the
strength of Songs from the Rain
is also its weakness. The band’s
songs are delightful to he^, but
there is a noticeable lack of ener­
gy through the entire album. A
few songs seem to have a little
intensity but they fall just short
of coming alive.
For a rom antic evening in
front of the fireplace or just a
break from everyday stress.
Songsfrom the Rain has the right
sound for you. However, it is
hard to listen to the whole album
and not get sleepy.
This plat is a true accomplish­
ment, and when “Thing of Beau­
ty” is on the radio, it is a wel­
come diversion from the norm.
But in the end, the album lacks
one small ingredient: A spark of
excitement to make extended lis­
tening to Songs from the Rain
possible.

boats from Georgetown Univer­
sity, the University of Cincinnatti, the Naval Academy, and
the University of Tokyo. The
varsity rowers saw this regatta
as a necessary challenge and a
welcome change from Drexel’s
standard schedule.
“This gave us some good
experience,” said Gwyn Krimmel, coxswain of the varsity
heavyw eight eight, after the
regatta. “Now we know where
we stand [in relation to other
teams].”
The varsity lightweight eight
reached their flnal with a second-place finish in their prelimi­

onds behind Georgetown and 12
ahead of George Washington,
who had beaten Drexel by four
lengths on March 27. The heavy

Orova w ould put the fresh>
man/novice rowers in the La
Salle U niversity Invitational
Regatta — traditionally a Drex­
el romp — on Camden’s Cooper
River. The men’s varsity team
would head to W ashington,
D.C., for the Cherry Blossom
Regatta.
But as the weekend passed,
the team found a more fitting
phrase on their minds: **Rain,
rain, go aw ay...” The weather
once again foiled the best efforts
of rower and referee alike to put
together a cleanly run, worryfiree regatta from start to finish.

which Drexel was to participate.
In New Jersey, the La Salle
regatta had been called off this
year because of fmancial prob­
lems. But after a hasty reorgani­
zation, the meet w ent on as
scheduled with a smaller roster
of schools, including the univer­
sities of Pittsburgh and D el­
aw are, and W ashington and
Stockton colleges. W hile the
winds and heavy rains didn’t
seem to affect Drexel directly,
the races in New Jersey were
plagued by delays and break­
ages throughout the day.
Copying their strategy from
the Villanova Regatta on April
3, the novices raced their heavy­
weight and lightweight eights
plus heavy and light fours con­
taining members of those boats.
They ended up with two wins in
their four races — both from,
eight finished third in their qual­
ifier behind George Mason Uni­
versity and Georgetown; their
time, which bested boats from
the universities of Cincinatti,
Tokyo, and Michigan, landed
them in the petit consolation
final.
“We hung with Georgetown
fairly well,” said Tom Linus,
varsity heavyweight captain.
“We were still stuck with them
at the 1000-meter mark when
the speaker system in our boat
failed, and we fell back. I think
we stood up well to the compe­
tition.”
The qualifiers, how ever,
would be the team’s only oppor­
tunity to prove that. Conditions
worsened as the day’s finals
drew near, forcing race officials
to cancel them — including the

In the day’s first Drexel race,
the novice light eight was
unable to recover from an espe­
cially rough start, ending up
behind Delaware and La Salle,
41 seconds out of first place.
The stem half of that boat later
returned in a light four, finishing
two lengths behind La Salle.
The novice heavy eight
defeated Delaware and La Salle
with a time of 6:55:00. Two
heats later, Drexel rowers in a
novice heavy four paced a fiveboat field with a wind-slowed
tim e o f 8:13:60. Stockton,
Delaware, La Salle and Pitts­
burgh followed behind.
“I thought Delaware would
give us more competition,” said
novice heavyw eight B rian
Richter. The Blue Hens lost to
Drexel’s heavy four by seven
seconds, and to their heavy
eig h t by 37. “Our best race
came from Stockton in the four.
That was a challenge, real
close.”
The team will go in two
directions again Saturday. The
men’s varsity heavyweights and
novice lightweights, as well as
the women’s novices and varsi­
ty four, head to Bucknell Uni­

Sports Edttor
The women’s softball team,
despite having just 12 players,
has had an unexpectedly excel­
lent season since returning from
a spring break trip. But obstacles
are mounting, and the end of the
season could prove a much big­
ger challenge than anyone
thought.
The
loss
of
senior
shortstop/pitcher Tammy Kratz
to a broken leg marked toe start
of an up-and-down week. On
Tuesday, April 13, the team was
down. The Lady Dragons trav­
eled to Rutgers University, and
came away with two losses (9-8,
9-3). Drexel had a good showing
with eight runs, 13 hits and six
errors in the first game. But the
result was still a loss, and the
second game showed the effects
of that loss: three runs, seven
hits and three errors for Drexel,
while Rutgers slugged away for
14 hits.
Drexel returned the next day
to play host to Lafayette, and
came away with two strong
wins. Freshman Chris Nalley
pitched a no-hitter in the second
game, while senior Kelli Griffith
was 5-for-5 in the two games.
The Lady Dragons recorded 20
hits as a team, and outscored
their opponents 10-0 in the sec­
ond game.
But Thursday was another
down day for them. Playing host
to Rider, and again without the
services of Kratz, Drexel lost the
first game 4-3, and was shut out
in the second, 5-0. To add to the
injury trcoible and make the
team even sm aller, G riffith
twisted her neck when the Rider
catcher fell on her head as Grif­
fith slid into home at the end of
the first game.
Wendy Colby pitched both
games, giving up a total of 18
hits, nine runs and eight earned
runs.
Rider’s Repko hit a homerun
over the fence in the seventh
inning of game two to put an
exclamation point on her team’s
domination.
Kim Killo was the only Drex­
el player with multiple hits in
the first game, going 2-for-3
with one double and one run
scored.
Jessie Levandow ski and
Kristin Leone were l-for-3 in
the second, while freshman
Heather Pandullo was l-for-2
with a double.
Rider had held the 20-11
advantage in the series with
Drexel, and avenged two Drexel
wins from last year with Thurs­
day’s victories.
The Lady Dragons are now
12-17 on the season, and have
some lough competition coming
up.
With the injuries suffered this
week, the small team size will
be a big factor in the coming
weeks.
Drexel faces Robert Morris
on Friday, Hofstra on Monday,
and will play in a NAC doubleheader at Delaware on April 21.

the bottom of the fdnth inning,
relief pitcher lerry Doyre

ended the game with a score of
7-6.
The impressive
record
comes after three close games
against Boston University. The

Drexel women’s lacrosse is
showing the world what four
years of hard work and looking
ahead can do.
Four years ago, the team had
a losing season. Last week, it
was ranked No. 15 in the
nation, and m aintained that
ranking this week.
But if the Lady D ragons
want to move up in the poll,
they can’t relax. They learned
that lesson on April 10, when
they v isited the C ollege o f
William and Mary.
They lost, 9-2, in their worst
offensive performance of the
season. Yes, William and Mary
was ranked No. 10. But head
coach Dipi Bhaya believes her
team has the talent to beat a
No. 10 team.
“It was a messy, rainy day,
and we ju st d id n ’t com e to
play,” she said. “As a coach, I
don’t mind losing a game. But

Special to The Triangle
Softball is a game of inches or,
in Tammy Kratz’s case, a game
of a half an inch.
Fair or foul. Ball or strike.
Mere inches in softball can deter­
mine the outcome of a game, but
for Kratz it was a half-inch exact­
ly that decided the outcome of
her senior season. On Monday,
April 12th, the senior shortstop
and co-captain of the Drexel soft­
ball team was in the midst of a
sliding drill at practice when her
half-inch cleats got lodged in the
mud around the thirdbase bag. As
momentum carried Tammy into
her hook slide, her front two
cleats dug into the d irt, halting
her forward motion instantly. She

“My right foot went out,” she
recall^, “and my ankle rolled. I
thought I sprained my ankle, but
it didn’t hurt. I even walked with
help to the training room.”
The diagnosis was much
worse than a sprained ankle. Xrays revealed a fractured right
fibula, an injury that required a
cast and at least six weeks of
inactivity. For Kratz, this first and
only injury in her fabulous fouryear career, was a bit hard to
fathom.
“I’m in shock,” she said of her
injury. “I still don’t believe it
happened. How many hundreds
of slides have I done since I’ve
been playing softball? It definite­
ly is not the way I wanted to end
my career, but I still have a tiny
bit of hope that I’ll be in there. I

guess I won’t believe my season
is over until it’s the last game pf
the year and I still haven’t
played.”
Few would like to see Tanuny
Kratz pull the medical miracle
more than her current teammates
and coaches. W hat the 1992
North Atlantic Conference Player-of-the-Year represents statisti­
cally—both offensively and
defensively—as well as emotion­
ally to her Lady Dragon squad is
almost immeasureable. Through
21 games this season, she has
already tallied 24 hits, a teamhigh. She had connected for six
doubles and two triples for a .316
batting average. This season’s
totals were no less than the
impressive figures that Kratz
mounted throughout her career, a
career that ranks among the best
individual displays ever in Drexel
softball history. A career .330
batter, Kratz was named team
Unsung Hero as a freshman, AllEast Coast Conference as a
sophomore and team MVP as a
junior. Entering this season, she
had appeared in the D rexel
record books for most hits in one
game (four), most doubles in one
game (2), most triples in one
game (2), most total bases in one
game (7), most RBIs in a season
(28), most triples in a season (7),
most at’bats in a season (185),
most career hits (157) and most
career triples (13).
Since her arrival at Drexel
Tammy Kratz has been a team
player. Her natural athletic abili­
ties allowed her to develop into
one of the most versatile com­
petitors in the region. Since her
father, Earl, began throwing
baseballs to her when she was
seven years old back in Hatfield,
Pa., Kratz has been a student of
the game. She played baseball
until junior high when her sex
prohibited her from playing the
sport further. A firstbaseman and
outfielder as a youngster in base­
ball, she developed into a catcher
and leftfielder in softball at North
Penn High School. In her senior
year, she moved to shortstop.

I don’t want to lose because we
didn’t give them a good game,
and we didn’t. We didn’t play
to our potential, we didn’t do
the things we’re supposed to
do, and we got scared ju s t
because they’re No. 10.”
Not playing to p o te n tia l
means not scoring at all in the
Despite their loss to
No, 10 William and
Mary, the Lady Drag­
ons maintained their
No, 15 ranking and
defeated Hofstra 17-5,
first half — Drexel ti-ailed 5-0
at the half. It also means allow­
ing your opponents shots on
goal and control of the draw —
and that’s ju st what W illiam
and Mary had.
“We just have never had a
taste of what it’s like to be at
the top and play a team like
that,” said Bhaya.
“I t’s disap p o in tin g for a
coach to know we didn’t play
well and lost. It would be nice
to say we lost because they’re
b e tte r, because I th in k we
could have beat them . I ’ve
been so pleased with the over­
all season, I’m just unhappy we
couldn’t face up to that chal­
lenge.”
Fortunately, that game was
not indicative of any other part
of this season.
Drexel has won by an aver­
age m argin o f six points in
each of its eight wins, several
players are nationally ranked
and the team defeated Hofstra
17-5 on April 13.
Senior Lindsay Hoyle had
four goals in the win, while
M andy Arm strong and E rin
Grant each had three. Senior
goalie Robin Orosz recorded
16 saves.
“We lost to [Hofstra] last
year because we w ere over
confident,” said Bhaya. “This
year we went out and played
hard, everybody got to play, I
got to rest some people and it
was fun. That’s how we should
play all the time.”
Orosz, after spending two
weeks as the nation’s leader in
save percentage, dropped to
second place.
“It’s easy to get there, but
it’s hard to stay; for her to get
there and stay there for two
weeks is an accom plishm ent
for her and [a] mark for Drex­
el,” said Bhaya.
“But the season’s not over
and dropping to second now
gives her a chance to w ork
even harder. It’s nice that she
has such great stats, but the
stats aren’t all we look at; it’s
nice to see people playing well,
too.”
Three other players appeared
as national leaders as w ell.
Armstrong, a junior, was ninth
in total points (23 goals, 10
assists), 10th in assists, and
12th in goal scoring.
H oyle was 20th in to tal
points (24 goals, three assists)
and ninth in total points. Senior
Colletta Gerstemeier was 18 th
in goal scoring with 21.
Drexel has its second annual
alum ni gam e on S atu rd ay ,
April 17, at 10:00 a.m., and
then plays host to Lehigh on
Thursday, April 22, in its last
hom e contest o f the season.
Both gam es w ill be held at
Drexel Field at 43rd and Powelton Avenue.

It was a sight to cherish Tues­
day at Drexel Field, if you were
a Drexel fan or a Penn hater.
Drexel held on to beat a well
rounded University of Pennsyl­
vania squad who, a week earlier,
lost by just one goal to NCAA
champion Princeton. This was a
bittersweet victory for the Drag­
ons, who avenged a loss last
year to the Quakers at Franklin
Field.
The main man for £>rexel was
Eric Fink, who had the winning
goal. On the day, Fink had 5
goals and 2 assists. Penn was up
4-1 in the final minutes of the
second quarter, but Drexel tied
the score at four by halftime, hi
the second half it was all Drag­
ons, tiianks to a great defensive
performance by Mike Twohig,
Mike Romeo and John Costales,
who protected goalie Jed Salter.
Salter, who came up big a few
times in the game, had 25 saves
to his credit. Defensive midfield­
er Joe Christy pummeled the
Quakers’ go to guy and held him
to one measly goal.
All in all, the Dragons won
11-10. Rounding out the scoring.
Matt Klank and Brandon Bates
each had two goals while Tony
Souza and Dan Gray each netted
one.
The win improved the Drag­
ons* record to 2-5.
Upcoming games are against
Lafayette on April 17 at Drexel
Field at 1:30 p.m ., and at
Swarthmore on April 20 at 4:00
p.m. If you haven’t seen these
guys yet, I would suggest you
do; since the Wings’ season is
over, this is Uie next best tiling.
