Attending lUP is a unique opportunity. As we walk through the Oak Grove, sit in our classes or visit the HUB, we see an array of personali- ties and diversities
eflecting
all around us.
And through our years at lUP we will encounter many
hallenges
which we will over- come to help us de- termine who we will become in our own lives, as well as how we will reflect on the lives of students to come.

Every semester signals a new mile- stone in our college career. It is also a time for
eflecting
on our accomplish- ments or short- comings of the last.
Each semester is also the begin- ning of a new set of classes and ac- tivities which are sure to present us with some
hallenges
different from those we faced the semes- ter before.

REFLECTING DIVERSITY
Each of US at lUP is different. We all have different backgrounds, interests, and values. These differences build a unique diversity which enables TUP to accomplish great things.
When we realize this idea and rise beyond stereotypes and prejudices, we not only help lUP reach new heights but also allow ourselves to mature person- ally. With more than 14,000 students from all over the world, Pennsylvania's fifth largest university provides everyone the unique opportunity to grow as an individual.
We will discover by the end of our
years at lUP that the world, which we will soon be a vital part of, also shares these characteristics of diversity. When we take the time to reflect upon our per- sonal maturity, the challenges we have faced to accept people for who they are will be possibly the greatest concept we have learned in all our years of school- ing.

Who could forget the game at...
Homecoming
The center of a jam- packed homecoming week- end focused on lUP's huge win over Shippensburg Saturday afternoon.
The game started out with a bang as lUP led 21-0 in the first quarter. The team never trailed as they roinped the entire game to finish with a score of 45-10.
The team's victory contin-
ued their undefeated season. After the game, head coach Frank Cignetti commented that lUP was "...right where we want to be. We're sitting good," and "sitting good" only began to describe lUP's incredible 1993 football season.
Senior tailback Michael Mann ran 1 1 1 yards on 24 carries and one touchdown
for the game. This touch- down tied him for second place in career touchdowns at lUP with Larry Monsilovich, who finished with 37. He also increased his total yards with 3,679 in his career, which is fourth on the PSAC all-time rushing list.
lUP definitely proved to be a football powerhouse this year, especially at homecom-
ing. In fact. Shippensburg head coach Rocky Rees sums up well for his own team, as well as for all the teams lUP has beaten this season, when he simply put it "Overall, we got our butts kicked." -Betsy Tarr
What is your opinion about banning the "Indians" logo at lUP?
...we shouldn't have to ban the logo because we don 't portray Indians in a bad way and it wasn 't meant to be taken personally. Also, there are still many other sports teams with the same logo- Aimee Cronin, freshman from Canonsburg.
Just another "politi- cally correct" move that saves lUP's ass but loses its integrity and identity—Joseph Russella, senior from Norristown, Pa.
/ think the banning of the logo is a good idea. The mascot is ta racist one- Marie Conyers, sopho- more from Phila- delphia, Pa.
/ think it was stupid to ban the logo- whatever decision was made, someone will always be un- happy with the re- sults - Dirk Kiesewetter, senior from Greensburg,

Diversity Day
Indiana University of Pennsylvania's Fifth Annual DiversitN Day was held in the Hadley Union Building on Saturday. November 6. The theme this year was "Dis- cover the Difference."
The purpose of Diversity Da\ is to show and celebrate the diverse lUP and Indiana community. While in the past years, the event concen- trated mostlv on ethnic
differences. thi;> year it grew into celebrating age. reli- gious, gender, se.xual orienta- tion, as well as ethnic differ- ences.
Many booths lined the HUB Multi-Purpose Room and the Program Lounge with cultural artifacts, food, and costumes from around the globe.
Many people came to taste the delicious free food from
countries all o\ er the world and even from the Environ- mentally Conscious Organi- zation (ECO) who passed out vegetarian snack items. There was also a w hole array of events to fill the afternoon.
A feature of the event included the Boy Scouts performing a Native Ameri- can dance of the Lakota Sioux. The group danced authentic dances that even
included the audience at times.
The Voices of Joy choir also took the stage to sing ven*' moving gospel songs, which was followed by a fencing demonstration from the SCA (Society for Cre- ative Anachronisms).
From the people who went to Diversity Day. the overall response was purely positive. -Isaac Falvey

Friendship
Even though studying is important at college, devel- oping new friendships and keeping the old ones is jtjsl as important. The friends that we have at college will, most likely, be with us forever.
At lUP, there are so many opportunities to meet friends of every nationality and personality. Perhaps you met
some of your friends by roaming the floors of your residence hall, by joining an organization or sports team, or maybe e\ en at the laundromat. No matter where you found them, each one is as important as the next.
A friend is soineone who is there when you need to talk, when you feel like
having fun. and when you need help with life's various problems. Stress is a com- mon topic among almost every college student; how- ever, talking about things with your friends often helps make life a little more stress- free, at least temporarily. A friend is someone who will always stick by your side. They will understand your
beliefs and opinions even if theirs are different.
So, just remember all of the great memories you have had with each of your friends. Do not forget them, because, after all. nothing is better than a few letters waiting in your mailbox at the end of the day.
-Heather Campagna
What do you value most in a friendship?
Someone you can really talk to and have fun with doing even the dumbest things - Heather Lamison, junior.
/ value trust and someone you know that will always be there for you— Patty Romano, sopho- more from Monroeville, Pa.
Love- Nicki.
Someone who stands by you to criticize as well as boost your- self. Also, one who will be by your side, regardless of what may happen — Chris Weil, junior from Baden, Pa.

What w ould college be without a Mr. IL'P contest? It is hard to think about it. but this year Alpha Gamma Delta sponsored the 14th annual event. Surrounded by an enthusiastic crowd, a total of nine brave contestants prepared frantically in hopes of receiving the grand prize.
Competition was tough, as the contest emphasized creativity and how each individual presented them- selves. The event is sup- posed to be less stressful than Ms. lUP. which is why it is not considered a pageant.
Although there were creative acts such as an Elvis impersonation, a comedy act. and a Native American Fancy Dance, only one gentleman came out on top. Jason Carvell. sponsored by the English Department/Peer Mentor Program, won not only the heart of the crowd.
Mr. ISC
It would be hard to attend lUP without realizing that there are a myriad of nation- alities and races present. There are numerous opportu- nities available to students to experience this array of diversity. The International Students Club, for example, gives students the chance to view some of its members
but alsoof the judges.
Carvell is a junior English major. His goals are to become a civil rights lawyer so he can help others. James Carmody II and Steve Bouffard tied for first runner up.
In other categories. Mickey Engel won the spirit award and Luke Engley received the Mr. Congenialit\ Award. Kevin Rooney, Mr. lUP 1992. also performed for the event. Rooney dedicated a song to John Frenchik. "an lUP Tau Kappa Epsilon member who died in a July car accident."
Not only was the Mr. lUP contest entertaining, but the money donated towards it went to people in need of medical aid. Proceeds from the event went to the Juvenile Diabetes Foundation.

What people's lives are like when they live
On-Campus
One of the biggest deci- sions students iiave to make each year is where to live. Perhaps you will choose to live olT-canipus. However, if your choice is to live on- campus, prepare to put some thought into your decision becau.se there are 14 resi- dence halls.
Each residence hall pro- vides students with unlimited educational, social, and
recreational opportunities. In fact, a national research study has .shown that students who do live in residence halls earn better grades and get more involved in campus life.
Although there are many places to live on campus, each residence hall is unique and different froin the rest. South Quad, which consists of Langham, Wahr, Mack. Stewart, and Tumbull halls is
located on the south side of cainpus.
On the north side of campus you can find Elkin, Gordon, and Whitniyre halls.
The Governors Quad is located near the stadium and includes Scranton, Lawrence, and Shafer halls. Each of these halls are coed and are surrounded by an open court frequented by students for recreation.
Esch and Wallace halls are located on the east end of campus while the Towers area contains McCarthy Hal Each of these halls are coed by floor and provide student with game rooms and other forms of entertainment. Residence halls are not only place to live, but also a plac( to create new friendships an* memories.

What people's lives are like when they live
Off-Campus
You are living on your own now-no parents, no R. A. .just you and few close friends. This set-up seems to be the greatest experience you have had since graduat- ing high school. The advan- tages of not having to live under your parents or resi- dence hall rules are definitely beneficial. Having your own living space where you can eat w hat vou want, be as loud
as you need to be, and not have to worry about a curfew or quiet hours is just what you have been waiting for. You even have the conve- nience of having a place to park your car without a hassle.
This arrangement appears to be too good to be true, which is exactly what it is. This is where those disad- vantages come into play.
First, you must go through the hassle of looking and actually finding the ideal place. The search for off- campus housing can be a nightmare in itself. To be able to live off campus you must have funds to go along with all those advantages one enjoys living off-campus. Welcome to the real world in which you must pay bills, including rent, utilities, and
food.
Living off-campus is not as simple as you might have thought it once was. The disadvantages may not be what you had in mind but the advantages make up for the hassle. If you can handle living off-campus, your independence will be a definite plus in your years of maturing.

What is the most inconve- nient aspect of living off-cam- pus?
The most inconve- nient aspect of living ojf-campus is the money I use for gas --Bao Nguyen, junior from Indi- ana, Pa.
The cooking aspect and doing the dishes are the worse things about living off- campus. Then there is the vacuuming, electric bills... "Donna Spinda, junior from Brockway, Pa.
There is little incon- venience with living ojf-campus. It is safer, quieter, and cleaner than living on-ccmipus — Terri Donnelly, senior ■ from Allison Park.
The only thing in- convenient is if you live really far from campus — Tricia Shafer, senior from Kittanning, Pa.

Where people go to hang-out...
PHOTO: Rvoko Tsunoda
On-Campus
What would college life be \\ ithout one or two places to just kick-back and hang- out with friends? Fortu- nately, lUP main campus has acquired several hangouts for students to take a break during their busy day.
Athletics has always been a major pail of the culture at lUP. Although many of us are only familiar with foot-
ball, there are some unoffi- cial teams lurking throughout campus. Just take a walk past Esch Hall during the fall and spring seasons and you will probably notice a ver>' competitive game of street hockey taking place.
The Hadley Union Build- ing, better known as the HUB, has long been a conve- nient place for students to
shop. eat. and converse with friends before their next class. Although student traffic is quite heavy during the day, the relaxing atmo- sphere makes the HUB one of the most popular places to take a breather.
Although the Oak Grove may seem bitter and bare during the winter months, students seein to swarm
among the wooded area during the warm seasons.
Of the many on-campus hangouts, study and TV lounges are probably the most noticeable. Pool tables, refreshments, entertainment, and a crowd of rowdy, stressed out students make up the best known place to just 4 hang out.

What is your favorite hang- out on cam- pus? Why?
My favorite hangout on-campiis is the Zoo dances at the HUB on Saturdays. The dances are a good place for non- partying people to have a good time -- Steve Shepler, sophomore from Indiana, Pa.
My bed --Lance Rihn, junior from Butler, Pa.

The favorite spots to hang-out
PHOH» 1I1H.I^^ :»lak
Off-Campus
Classes are done for the day. and your homework is finished at last. You have ail evening to yourself and plenty of time for recreation. There are a variety of off campus hang-outs where students take a break from their daily schedules. These hang-outs offer students a different atmosphere and environment as an alternative to what the\- are used to
seeing on campus. Off campus hang-outs play a major role in the learning experiences that students take part of while attending lUP.
For some students an affordable meal at a fast food restaurant is a gratifying past time. Fast food restaurants such as McDonald's. Burger King, and Wendy's are known hot spots for students looking for a break from the
usual routine. Other places like Papa Johns. Mario's, and Subway also appeal to the tastes of students who want a place to unwind and relax. When finished with a meal, students may take a trip to the local Indiana Mall.
The Indiana Mall offers students a place to eat. shop. or even see a movie. When at the mall many students can be seen socializing and
having a good time with their friends.
lUP is known for its exciting night life environ- ment. The older crowds usually frequent such popular bars as Kangaroos. Coney Island. Wolfendales. and H.B. Culpeppers. House and Greek parties have also become a big part of the nightly routine in off campus living. -Kelly Augustine

Sometimes the most practical way to earn money...
PHOTO; Takahiko Hara
Jobs
Webster's New World Edition Dictionary defines a job four different ways: 1 . a piece of work done for pay 2. task; duty 3. the thing or iTiaterial being worked on 4. employment; work.
While some lUP students may think of their jobs as the technical definitions above, many others view their jobs as their key to having fun.
gaining experience, or just plain supporting themselves through their college career.
Students may choose to get a work-study job on- caiTipus to help with their tuition and fees, go off- campus and look for employ- ment at local businesses, or many choose working for ARA's various dining estab- lishments across campus.
Most will agree that the hours that they put in are well worth the trouble when they get to spend their money whether it be on bills, enter- tainment, pets, family, friends, or the most important thing to some students: food.
Others are also sure that the jobs they hold are only temporary ones that will lead them to bigger and better
things in the future when they finally graduate from lUP.
A greater respect for minimum wage is also a latent function of getting a job. It makes us all a little more humble when people tell us they've worked for $4.25 an hour.

While attending college, the foods that are typically eaten are usually not gourmet. In fact, many times students consume meals that are cheap and easy to prepare to save on time and money.
Having a meal plan to eat in the dining halls on campus IS mandatory of students who live in the residence halls. Students who live off campus may opt to eat on campus, too.
Even though cainpus eating is nothing like The Olive Garden or Red Lobster, having a meal plan gives students the option of eating at four different locations around campus: Folger Dining Hall. Foster Dining Hall, the HUB Rock Cafe, and the Underground Ex- press. These are the places that the entire campus almost always seems to gather at
around the same time every day.
Folger Dining Hall, located near the Pechan Health Center, features a variety of foods plus an MTV-like musical network, which enhances the atmo- sphere of this popular eating place. On the other hand, Folger Dining Hall features the more traditional-type cafeteria food and atmo-
sphere.
The HUB and the Under- ground Express are popular eateries on campus, which offer a variety of fast foods.
Off-campus there are also a variety of places to eat. Whether one prefers Chinese food and chopsticks or hamburgers and pizza, there are plenty of places in Indi- ana to find food. -Heather Campagna & Lynn Szybist

PURSUING THE CHALLENGES
lUP offers so many opportunities to its students both personally and academi- cally. The standard of excellence that we have built reflects highly on our motiva- tion to pursue the challege of our courses.
We have the ability to make choices in each of our classes that will affect us forever. Our professors challenge our minds with complex concepts and test our ethics as our knowledge expands. We challenge ourselves to keep up with our professors and to take what they teach us to heart.
It is sometimes easy to let ourselves
fall into an academic rut, but it is always easier to pull ourselves out when we re- flect back on what we have learned so far, and look forward to the challenges ol pushing ourselves even farther. The knowledge that we acquire here at Indi- ana University of Pennsylvania will teach us to reach past our fears and the hard times to pursue our personal expec- tations.

Punxsutawney Campus
On our main campus, many stu- dents tend to forget that we aUo have two branch campuse-. Punxsutawney. commonly referred to as Punxsy. is one of these, and has a lot to offer students.
In the fall of 1993. 140 freshmen. t>2 upperclassmen and 28 part-time students were enrolled for a total ot 2.^0, which is down by 75 from 19^2.
According to Norman Storm. Punxsy's director, this decrease in enrollment could be due to the eco- nomic situation as well as the compe- tition from other schools in the area.
Reasons for attending Punxsy are \ .iried. but most students enroll here Kjause they had friends go here, because lUPoffered them enrollment at Punxsy or because they live near Punxsutawney and prefer to com- mute and live at home, although man\ students alsochoose to live in Punx s\ residence halls or student apartments.
Punxsy makes the transition into college easier because the campus is small, giving them the chance to meet more people.
"Most students will come to Punxsy so they can transfer to the main campus later." Storm said.
The campus and community here arerclatively small, and this creates a tli'seness for the students. Their classes are small, giving them the opportunity to work with their pro- fessors on a one -on-one basis whieh is difficult to accomplish on a larger e.unpus.
Students whoenrolled mtoPun>.s\ K jause lUP placed them here are only required to stay for one year before moving to the main campus, but some choose to stay to gel their associate's degree in criminology or ei'mputerand office infer' leins which is not avai.. m.iin campus.

In 1963. the Armstrong Couni\ Campus of IndianaUniversity of Penn- s\lvania in KittanningwiL-i established. And it is still as important today as ii \^ as back then.
The Armstrong Campus, located about 27 miles west of lUP. has an enrollment of about 300 students a \cur. That shows the importance and necessity of the campus.
"Most of the students are just oui ot high school from the immediate area, but also from all o\er the state, said Robert Doerr, Armstrong cam- pus director.
Students may chose the branch campus over the main campus for a couple of reasons. One is that it can serve as a transitional stage between high school and college. Students en jo> it because it is a smaller campu- in a relatively small area.
Some students may want a smaller campus simply to adjust to the higher education system." said Doerr.
Another reason is because it en- rolls a number of non-traditional stu- dents in the Kittanning area.
Most >tudents usually complete their freshman year at Kittanning tak in J liberal studies courses then go to 11 P. Kittanning offers all majors e\ eept nursing.
Campus housing is available tor the convenience of students. Man\ students also live in off -campus hcnis- iiii;.
One main benefit of .'Vrmstrong is that branch-campus students receive the same education as that of a main- campus students, plus branch-cam- pus students have the advantage of smaller-sized classes and more one- on-one time with professors.
The Armstrong Campus serves as a bridge that many students desire and look for when starting higher educa- tion. They leave Armstrong with a feeling of capability, accomplishment and a solid college expenence.

The mainstage season include^ two productions performed during the fall and spring semester- Throughout the years these perfor minces have included classical and mixkm plays, comedies, dramas, and musical productions, which are per- tt^rmed with the help of the Depart ment of .Music.
The Theater-by-the-Grove's 1993- ^4 season contained a variety of pla> - The fall sea.son's line up contained Larry Shue's play Wenceslas Square and Moliere's The Misanthro/u W cnceslas Square gave the audien^ e a subtle f>ortrait of what happens to a Mviety when free artistic and intel- lectual expression is stifled. Moliere - p! ay. which was translated to modem times by Neil Barlett and Robert Falls, shared the same theme as y\'encesLi^ Square, however. The Misanthrcin represented a more modem time.
The spring season provided the audience with a musical by W.

The lUP graduate school u.i- founded in 1957 and supports the eraduates and post-bachelor's educa- tion on campus to assist in varicuN research projects. Only 1,555 of the 3.1300 applicants are accepted eaJi >ear to one of lUPs six collef;c-: business and human ecology, educu ti.>n. fine arts, health sciences, hu n lanities and social sciences, and natu- ral sciences and mathematics. 0\cr- ali. the graduate school provides -in masters programs that require 3(' lo -i'i credits to receive a degree.
The length of time required to complete a graduate degree depeiuiv on the student's major. A student ^ course-load consists of nine hour-- per semester and at least three hours for part-time students. The nuiriKr of required hours are limited because a graduate student must maintain .i .^.0 for a Masters degree and ha\ ^ .i -^.5 GPA to complete the doctorate ^ program.
The graduate school is divided under t\Ao dean's offices. The first i^ the admissions and academic di\i- svin.

International Students
Diversity is a tradition at FUP, and uc display that tradition with (>ur large group of international students w ho travel from around the world \o siLidy here.
Represented in our student boii\ ,iw such European countries as Ger many. Turkey. Holland and Spam. Wo also ha\e many Asian student^ from coim tries including Japan. Thai land. China and Malaysia. Sonic Middle Eastern students come to u^ from countries like Pakistan. Samli ■ Nrabia and Sri Lanka, and we aKc have students from such African countries as Zimbabwe. Zambia anJ Hihiopia. Also included in our inter national student population are siu dents from Central and South .Amen cancountries including Mexico, Giia temala and Ecuador.
Many of our international studeniv start out at lUP working with iIk .Nmerican Language Institute, which helps them learn English before He coming enrolled as a university sui d.-it.
Some students stay to complete a tour-year degree or more while otii CIS stay for one year or even just one semester.
International students bring color and culture to our campus as can be seen easily through such programs as Diversity Day and the Mr. Intenia- ii 'oal Students Club (ISC) Contest. I kre. cultures come together to pro- \ i.leeducation and entertainment loi all lUP students -- very vital parts of the university experience.
Included in lUP's international e \ change program is the opportunity lor lUP students to study in other countries. lUP students have tni\ - eled to a variety of countries to study including Holland. Germany, Spain. Namibia, Mexico and Japan.

Every semester, many studeni-- accept the challenge to join ROT ( Why should these students opt in i.ickle early morning physical tram inginsteadofsimply sitting in ahealih or nutrition and wellness class? Well. there are lots of reasons.
Capt. Colleen Herman said sin dents have the opportunity to learn leadership skills, hands-on teamwork activities ;ind lime management. .All ol these talents will benefit them in I ho tuture.
"And ROTC can he fun too. Herman said.
Two semestersof ROTC. ReseiN c Officer's Training Corps, will com plete the Liberal Studies requiremeni for Health and Wellness course^. .Although ROTC is not for everyone, many students enjoy it and thrive on this strict, rigorous training.
Students who are accepted iniu ihe Advanced Course of ROTC will receive commissions as second lieu tenants after graduation. They can ihen serve in the U.S. Army, Anii> Reserve or National Guard.
The 290 ROTC students enrolled in ihe fall semester of 1993 challenge ,iiul conquer lots of outdoor training activities. They leam land navij;a lion techniques, marksmanship skilK. self-defense maneuvers and rope bridging tactics. They also receive training in practical skills like swim- ming and repelling.
Students ha\ e to leam to get along and work with other students whether ihcy like that person or not. It leaclicN them to trust in others and in them- selves.
Learning leadership skills, acqii I r ing self-confidence and gaining knowledge about the military system are the main goals. Herman said, and some may even come out with a greater pride for themselves and. for their country .

Ever>^ football game, every p.i mile, the bellowing sounds of tlic familiar Indiana University of Penn ss Ivania marching band can be heard miles away. Proclaimed by some as ihc best marching band around, the nuisica! talent and spirit is evident as the notes carry across campus.
The marching band is by far tlu- most noticeable instrumental group on the main campus of lUP. Under the direction of Dr. Casavant, these hard-working individuals go beyonti iheir call of duty to entertain the e n >wds and to play to the many touch- tliiwnsof the football team. The en thusiasiTi generated by this bunch ot (H er 200 musicians is the core of not only football, but of many other events as well.
This year, the marching band p.iilicipated in the Christmas social and many high school competitions. It that seems impressive, they also played during halftime at a Nevi \ drk Giants and Buftalo Bills fool ball game. One of the many other hiuhlightsofthe 199.'^-94 season was a trip to .'Mabania with the lUP foot- hall teiim to participate in a national ch,impionship. The success of the marching band is evident in man\ respects and can be witnessed all (n er campus.
Although other instrumental or ganizations are less noticeable, the\ are not less talented and seem to always spark a large interest among tel low students and faculty. The sym- phony band is a quaint organisation that produces relaxing, yet provok- ing, pieces of music to the crowd. Christmas carols and enchanting e\ enings of concerts bring both cul ture and entertainment to the RIP environment.

Learning at lUP
1 I
Sometimes it seems difficult to learn anything while in college be- cause so much time is spent worrying about getting classes and passing them. When your four years at II P arc up, you may not feel that joii leamed anything after all the hassles
However difficult it may seem. the university is set up to help >oii succeed in your classwork.
The library and computer centers are open late, and you can even set up tutoring sessions if you are having serious difficulties with a class.
The tutoring center in Pratt Hall oflers assistance, tuid many profes- sors offer the help of a graduate stu- dent. Career Services can help >iiu prepare for a future intemship or joh without forcing you to forget aboui
> our present studies.
And now it may even become easier for you to get the classes sou w .int because of the new registration s\ stem. It allows you to change your schedule from the time you beyni registering until the drop/add period begins.
An added plus is that the lines and trustration of arena drop/add. usuall> held in the tleld house, have been eliminated because of the new s>s- tem.and now only departmental dn ip atlJ exists.
While you still have to devote much time to studying and preparing projects, these changes may allou
> ( lu to devote less time to getting the classes you need.
The next step toward learning something during your stay at lUf is to learn what services are available for tutoring, laboratory work, com- puterceniers and research and to Uike advantage of these services.
lUP offers the tools for learning, and now it is even easier to get the classes. All that's left to do is to i:ei some knowledge oui of it.

Interns & Student Teachers
While course work and acadein- icv are stressed at lUP. many stu- dents liike their learning outside ol the classroom to participate in stu dent teaching, internships and re kiied field work experiences.
Internships are not required for gr.iduation. but many students de- cide to take one as an effective wa\ to gain hands-on experience within their major. Interns gain work expe ricnce in their field while under the suiiervision of a trained professional as well as an academic advisor, earn- ing; between 3 and 12 credits and bolstering their resuines in the pro- cess.
Student teaching is another was that students can get experience out- side of the college classroom. Edu cation majors go to real schools anil observe and teach in real classrooms under the supervision of a professor and a cooperating teacher.
lUP students also have a chance to enhance their education through a variety of campus activities includ ingThePenn.WIUP-TVandWIUP FM. All majors are welcome lo work in these environments which arc similar to that of professional newspapers, radio stations or tele\ i sion stations.
These organizations are almost solely run by students and offer .1 variety of positions and experiences which will benefit students in an> major after graduation.
Besides learning skills by partici paling in internships, student teach ing and related activities, studenis find that future employers are ini- picssed by a history of such acti\ 1- tios on a resume. Simply sticking to the coursework does not seem to be the key to a successful job search these days, and lUP students are benefiting from the experiences thai HP internships, activities and stu- dent teaching has to offer.

THE ULTIMATE CHALLENGE
Being an active member of an lUP sports team is one outlet for challenging yourself to meet goals you feel are im- portant to attain. The self-discipline and hard work it takes to become a valuable member of any sports team depends on the realization of each individual mem- ber to believe whole-heartedly in three basic philosophies.
First and foremost is to play with good sportsmanship at all times. Sec- ondly, each member must learn to work cooperatively with all members on the team. The team should work together as a single identity with each member help-

ing out the other, and no one member is more important than another.
And the third basic philosophy to a smoothly running team should be the investment of personal energy to this group. Each team member must always be prepared to give 1 10% and more to ensure a well deserved win.
Indiana University of Pennsylvania takes these philosophies to heart, and it shows. lUP has a strong sports program which brings pride and a feeling of ac- complishment to the entire university. -Betsy Tarr

Champiouship Season
The Indiana Universin, of Penns) Ivania's football team kicked off to another great year in 93 and finished with perhaps one of the best seasons in lUP football histor>.
With a 13-1 record overall, the team went undefeated during the regular season, a record that stretched the season into the playoffs.
While there were many strengths of the team that contrib- uted to its sucess. such as Scott Woods as quarterback and Michael Mann at tailback, head coach Frank Cigneni feels the heart of this team was the seniors as a group.
'The> ( the seniors ) w ere the glue of the team, in terms of leadership, chemistry . perfor- mance, role models, work ethic and staying focused." he said.
"I feel very, very good about the seniors as a class that I can look at every one of them and say that they've developed their talents to the maximum w ithin the program." he added. "They've had a great experience at lUP and got a great education."
There were many highlights of the great '93 season. Many lUP fans may view the national championship game as the ultimate highlight of the season, but Cigneni sees it a different way. "I felt the test of this football team w as going to be a three-game stretch." he said. "It started September 1 1 at home against Grand Valley. Then the next Aeek. we were away at West Chester and the following week at Liberty. I think these three games really told us something about our football team."
Cigneiti said Grand Valley had a great national reputation, and lUFs win over them was very impressive. But it ■>■ me
against West ChesR- !y
gave him faith in his team's ability.
"West Chester showed me something about our team that reminded me a lot of our Townson
game the previous year. " he said. "We lost that game in the fourth quarter. West Chester w as a very similiar game. We were winning. West Chester was coming back and driving for the winning touchdown w ith less than two minutes on the clock. Our defense created a tumov er. we got the football and scored. That may have been our biggest win of the season."
The win against Liberty, another great football team. Cignetti said, is the game that made him realize w ithout a doubt that his team had great potential.
"I knew then that we could stav focused, continue to work hard, and we w ould improve and be a great team." he said.
.•\t the end of the regular season. Cigneni and his team of champs headed into the playoffs to play their first game against Ferris.
"Ferris was an excellent football team." Cigneni said. "We played at home. We won. It was a good win."
The following week, the Indians faced New Haven.
"That was probably one of the best games we played all year.'" Cignetti said. "New Haven was definitely national championship caliber and to come back in the second half and get a great w in out there on the road was great for our team."
The team had another good win against North Dakota before they headed to Alabama to play in the national championship game.
"That was probably, in my days at IVP. the greatest event in terms of support of the community and atmosphere at the game."' Cignetti said. "It w as just a great event. It was good for everybody. It gave lUP national exfwsure being on national television. Our football team played very well."
But for as well as they played, they came up just shon of their ultimate goal.

(continued from page 58) The loss was a tough, bitter pill to swallow at the time." Cignetti said of the last-minute defeat in the championship game. "Yet after a day or so. you come away and put it all into perspec- tive, because your team really did an outstanding job.. .They repre- sented themselves very well in the championship game."
Cignetti said he received letters and cards from people all over America regarding the game.
For all the credit Cignetti gives the seniors for playing the biggest role in the team's w inning season, he is optimistic about their future without them.
"We've got a lot of good young players in there from a talent standpoint." he said. "The biggest thing about looking at our team for the '94 season is to replace those 15 seniors. It's going to be very difficult to replace their leadership, production and everything else they've given to the team. "
Specifically. Cignetti knows the offense is what is going to need the most work next year.
"We have to replace Scott Woods at quarterback and Michael Mann at tailback and our tight ends and wide receivers. ..The young players have got to be able to come in and play as well. The physical skills are there. Now it's just a matter of whether they'll make the plays.'
As far as the teams' defense goes, they have eight starters returning. Cignetti is looking not to replace the defense, but to improve it.
Cignetti is also looking for someone to replace field-goal kicker Mike Geary, which will be no easy task.
Though the '94 season will take a lot of rebuilding and working to reach the national championship again. lUP has a lot of confidence that they will see Cignetti once again coaching another outstanding team to another outstanding season of football in '94. -Kellv Fisher

Women's Soccer
A Fresh Start
In the past, the women's soccer club had always had a strong following. The pow- erful interest these dedicated women took to the sport turned some of the admin- istrator's heads. In 1993. it happened. Strings were pulled, papers were signed, and games were set up. Women's soccer was no longer a club, it was a varsity sport. Brian Lenoksy was signed as lUP's first head coach for soccer. Lenosky put a lot of work into orga- nizing the team to get them underw ay before the season. The teams captains were Amy Peterson, Shelly Yoest.

Gaining Experience
The men's baseball team had a rough season this past year. With a young team, experience was all the team gained. Not making it into the playoffs was no surprise for Coach Kevin McMullan.
The team's defense made errors of an\ freshman team. Defensive errors were not the only problem, but getting the key hits with runners on base was something the team struggled with. In fact, that is the reason the team lost many tight games.
"It just seems more or less that we don't get the clutch hit when we need it. " McMullan went on to say, "We had chances to win all those ballgames."
Starting-off the line-up
was centerfielder Eric Reid. shortstop Ryan Richards, and catcher R\ an Reilh . -Tara Halleran

Rebuilding Continues
The women's softball team had a difficult year. Under the new management of Jo\ ce Kanaskie. the team struggled with a 5-23 season record. With seven letterw inners returning. Kanaskie's goal was to rebuild the team.
Kanaskie looked towards Cathy Rawa. Shannon English. Kerri Reese, and Cr> stal Szentmiklosi as the foundation of this year's team. Reese led the team with 23 hits and 1 7 runs. Szentmiklosi brought in the most runs with 12 RBI's. The team's top pitchers were Rawa and English. Rawa ended the season with two wins and ten losses. English finished the vear 3-11.
Kanaskie hopes that the mistakes made from this year will help the women start over and have a better '95. -Tara Halleran

The greek organizations at lUP re- flect the highest standard of unity. The greeks are committed as members both individually and in whole as a group. Each fraternity or sorority is a group of individuals who share a common interest or goal that enables each member of the group to contribute to the philosophy of the whole.
Although greeks at lUP stress unity within their own organization, they also are a positive asset to the Indiana com- munity. By raising money and volun- teering in many community functions, greeks not only create friendships among
themselves but challenge themselves to interact with the community.
Whether a greek organization is pro- fessional, service, or socially oriented, their stature remains the same-as a groui of dedicated individuals who have pledged their loyalty to each other in pursuit of the ultimate challenge of hole- ins true to their beliefs and creating life long friendships. -Betsy Tarr

^"^Jelta Gamma,
Delta Gamma was founded in 1 874. and the golden letter H' was used as the official pin. This was later replaced by the anchor, an ancient symbol of hope, which is still used today. The hope of the anchor has guided the founders and new members to come, making Delta Gamma one of the strongest \\ omen's sororities in the U.S. today. Delta Gamma's original theme was "Hannah. ' a song that origi-
nated in the I920's at the Uni\ ersit> of Oregon. .All Delta Gamma chapters have devised their own versions of the song. Somewhere along the way. Raggedy .Ann dolls began to represent "Hannah. " and these dolls can be found in chapter houses throughout the country today.
Delta Gamma has been actively involved in its national philanthropy. Sight Conser\ ation and Aid to the Blind. -Eunice Yeo

The word "Panhellenic" comes from the Greek lan- guage, meaning "all Greek. " The organization itself is made up of all Greek women.
The lUP Panhellenic Council is a chapter of the National Panhellenic Council. It is the local governing body composed of representatix es from each sorority at lUP. The body meets once a week and conducts and discusses all matters concerning soror- itv affairs. It hosts various

Panhel builds the bond which allows sororities to unite and to establish and promote a stronger Greek system. Every woman that pledges a sorority at lUP automatically becomes a member of the lUP Panhellenic Council.

The Panhellenic Emblem
The shield is a protective influence for our entire membership.
A lamp denotes leader- ship, scholarship and enlightenment.
The laurel wreath signi- fies victory, or achievement of ide- als.
While the sword pierc- ing the wreath indi- cates willingness to fight for ideals, sym- bolizing, too, penalty of obligation; also bravery, achievement and discipline.
The mantling surround- ing the shield is the protecting cloak that education gives us, and a protective influence of organi- zation.
Thus there in the mantle is inscribed the name of the National Panhellenic Confer- ence.

TRADITIONAL REFLECTIONS
lUP is comprised of such a wide vari- ety of students that having a broad choice of organizations to belong to is very im- portant. No matter what your interests are, somewhere on our campus you will probably find a group of fellow students who share much in common with your- self.
Being involved during your years here at lUP will have several payoffs in the long run. In the most practical sense, being involved in organizations, as well as attending classes, is usually an accom- plishment prospective employers like to see on your resume.
Another important advantage to being
Editor: Rozlyn Hogg
involved on campus is that there is al- ways the opportunity to test leadership skills. A strong leadership ability is defi nitely a valuable asset.
And finally, the most important reasor to become involved on campus is be- [ cause of the friendships you will have the opportunity to make. Organizations usu ally reflect on people of similar interests and so bonds are more easily formed among people who feel connected. The friendships you make may last well be- yond your years at lUP. -Betsy Tarr

Led by our student publications director, the fearless Amy Lanzelotti. the 50 or so students on advertising, business, produc- tion and editorial staffs labored long, hard hours to crank out "The Independent Student Voice of I UP" each week.
Though the format and style of The Penn has drasti- cally changed during its 66 years, our mission remains the same: to ser\'e as the eyes and ears of lUP; and of course, to make people
laugh with the comics and crime briefs, where you can see your friends' names and mock them for doing some- thing dumb and getting caught for it.
Yes, the hours were bad and pay worse, and some- times we wondered if it was all worth it. And even though it was a pain in the butt selling ad space, editing stories and getting the 1 1 .000 copies of the paper out in time. e\ery time we heard a friend say. "Today's Far Side was hilarious, dude." we knew our w ork \\ as appreci- ated.

STUDENT CONGRESS
WORKING TOWARD CHANGE
Zl
Student Congress' effec- tiveness as a body of student representation increased tenfold this year because of a focus on committee work. By sitting on various campus committees, the congressmen are able to work towards changing the policies of the school to better suit students' needs.
This year, SC began its fifth year by defining its goals and objectives at a retreat in early September. Among them were forming a Bor- ough Relations Committee and a Facilities Fee Review Board, which allows students to voice their concerns.
As part of their goal to become a more responsi\ e
and representative governing body of the student commu- nity, SC submitted a charter, along with its constitution to the executive board. In return SC hopes to reach the fullest potential of student government at lUP.
This year. SC regrettably bids adieu to graduating veteran greats like Jennifer McCarthy. Melanie Burrows. John Jacob. Stephanie Lidonnice. and Am> Prosek, to name only a few. -Dirk Sellers & Eunice Yeo

TEN
THE ENTERTAINMENT NETWORK
3
The Entertainment Net- work (TEN) was one of the more noticeable organiza- tions on campus this year. TEN was responsible for many of the events brought to ILP for students to relax and enjoy . TEN brought acts such as MTV comedian Pauly Shore and The Clarks. a popular musical group. TEN was also re- sponsible for signing Ocean Blue, comedians Gerrol Bennet and Craig Anton, and mentalist/hypno- tist Ronny Romm. Many local bands performed dinnertime shows in the HUB: many of the same bands performed in lUP I'nplugged. the annual talent
show in w hich many local bands compete. Perhaps the most successful events TEN sponsored were the movies held in Pratt auditorium. Wednesdays were classic nights. Thursday through Saturday nights were block- buster nights. The Entertain- ment Network is involved in many different programs which are presented at \ari- ous times throughout each year. Some are annual, some are experimented with each semester.

BIGALA
BISEXUALS. GAYS & LESBIANS
lUP's Bisexual, Gay, and Lesbian Alliance, (BIGALA). enjoyed its second full year of working to provide a positive environ- ment on campus for non- heterosexual people during the 93-94 academic year. The organization has a two- told purpose on campus. First, and foremost, the members of BIGALA (which are not limited to non- heterosexual people) work to educate lUP students about the truths, both moral and physical, of alternative lifestyles. Secondly. BIGALA acts as a confiden- tial meeting place for any student who identifies as homosexual, bisexual or even
a heterosexual ally.
In the fall, the group concentrated on building awareness through such activities as sidewalk slogans, panel discussions in both classrooms and residence halls, holding G/L/B movie nights and providing educa- tional materials to the student body through a booth at Diversity Day.
In the spring, the focus of BIGALA's agenda became more broad in scope. Panels increased across campus, and they cosponsored the Renais- sance City Choir among other various events.

ECO
ENVIRONMENTALLY CONSCIOUS
Recycle, reuse, and renew are key words used to save and preserve our environ- ment. The three R's can be defined in a variety of wavs. To some people, this may mean wearing the same pair of jeans all week to conserve water. The Environmentally Conscious Organization (ECO) takes the three R's more seriously. ECO is an organization made up of lUP students who are making a difference in our community.
ECO provides recycling projects around campus throughout the year. During the fall and spring semesters, they take part in an Adopt-A-
Highway program. In the fall, ECO sponsors Earthfest where samples of vegetarian dishes are offered to the community. In the spring, ECO plans and sponsors the Peoples Jam activities, including live bands during the day, while selling crafts created from recycled materi- als. ECO has a positive effect on the environment and is tr\ ing to let the com- munity know they can make a difference.

INDIVIDUAL REFLECTIONS
Each semester lUP must say goodbye to those who have influenced the univer- sity during their years of pursuing a de- gree. Many of these students have been influential members of the lUP commu- nity responsible for the goals lUP has reached durins their time here.
Our seniors deserve much credit for their leadership to the underclassmen and much praise for their leadership in their own futures. Their examples have set the ways for future lUP students, and now they will be challenged to achieve many personal goals in life.
They are about to enter the profes-
sional world as independent, educated, and responsible beings. They will be able to reflect upon these accomplish- ments and detemiine how they have made both an impact on their alma mater as well as on themselves. The challenges they have dealt with here at lUP have prepared them for the new challenges they will face as professional adults. -Betsv Tarr

Reflecting the Past
BREEZEDALE
As the oldest structure on campus, this Victorian st}le building was constructed around 1867 or 1868. Built after the Civil War by Mr. and Mrs. James S. Sutton (brother of John) for private residence. the\ lived here until Mr. Sutton's death. In 1899 the home was sold to Judge John P. Elkin and hisfamih. who made several additions and renovations. The Elkins owned the home until the Trustees of Indiana State Teacher's College bought the estate in 1947. The school used the building for a variety of purposes: classrooms, a boys' dormitory and even a storage room for the art department until 1970. After talks of destroying the mansion, community efforts pre- vented the occurence. Renovation attempts were made and finally completed in April of 1989. Todax. the building is used for an alumni center and a local museum.

WILSON HALL
Named in honor of the third president of Indiana State Teacher's College. Mr. .Andrew W. Wilson, the building was originally used as a Model School in 1893. The curriculum of the Model School focused on the arts of music, drawing, domestic art and manual training. The school enrolled about 275 students from elementary school to junior high. One of its most notable students was James Stewart, a student for several years at the Model School. In 1941 . extensive remodeling was done on the build- ing, and it was then called the Wilson Hall Libran with provisions for 50,000 volumes and a seating capacity of 255. Today, the rooms ofWilson Hall are used for a variety of academic classes.

WALLER HALL
Built in 1927. Waller Hall was originally used as the school's gymnasium building . Named after David Waller, principal of Indiana Normanl School from 1893-1906. the building was constructed when the curriculum required physical education each term. The completion of the building "coincided with the school's achieving collegiate status." For 35 years. Waller was the physical education center on cam- pus. In 1962. however. Memorial Field House was constructed and Waller became the principle home of the women's physical education program. In 1977. Norah Zink Hall was built and Waller then became home of the newly created Theater Depart- ment. Today, Theater-by the-Grove is still the loca- tion of the Theater Department, which provides quality shows for I UP and the surrounding commu- nity.

CLARK HALL
Clark Hall was originally erected in 1893 as the Boy's Dormitory. However, on November 5 . 1905. Indiana State Normal School (ISNS) siijfered its first major disaster when the dormitory was destroyed by a fire. Fortunately, there were no major injuries and within a year, another building was built on the same site. Although the "new" Clark Hall had similar dimensions, much of the architectural styles were changed. Clark Hall was named after Silas Moorehead Clark. Clark was named an Indiana school director in 1869. In 1872. he was elected a trustee of ISNS , and five years later he succeeded John Sutton as president of ISNS trustees. Clark held this position for 14 years until his death.
