Turning Them Green With Envy seems
like the perfect yearbook theme for a
school that has so much to offer.
Trying to encapsulate a year of news, activi-ties
and events into 314 pages is an arduous
task. The focus of this book was on the
essence of Tulane- the students and the
events that filled their lives.
We're confident you'll be Green With

TURNING
THEM
Adding new perspec-tives
from each individual
student is how Tulane
grows and progresses to-ward
its academic goal of
excellence. The input from
the collective minds of the
student body helps to
build upon the rich foun-dation
of Tulane tradition.
Interaction takes the
thoughts of years past
adapts them for use in a
future context, allowing
the university to develop
and grow.
All students add to as
well as take from this in-stitution
certain aspects
and characteristics which
are unique to their educa-tional
experience.
Through interaction with
others, we gain a great
deal of insight and infor-mation
about the world
around us. Opening the
doors of knowledge and
imparting that knowledge
unto others allows the dia-logue
of shared ideas to be
continued. This unique ex-change
of ideas is one for
which the student as well
as the school will be en-hanced
forever.
Take a closer look at
something familiar, for
you may see something
that has always existed, yet
was so subtle that it blend-ed
in with the surround-ings.
Four years at Tulane
allows one to take that

!
closer look at things.
Upon the inspection you
will find open doors to
the future. The plethora
of possibilities and po-tential
insights to be
gained are endless.
Choices are there to be
made and dreams are to
be pursued, but most of
all the experiences to be
had can be as rich and
pulchritudinous as you
wish to make them.
With the variety of ex-periences
that are avail-able,
students can find
areas of interest and
friends with which to
share the time they
spend in pursuit of their
academic goals.

We arrive at Tulane as young, timid freshmen and
we leave Tulane as mature, outgoing seniors. We
were anxious to make friends, enjoy campus events,
explore the city, and be pushed to our limits, both
academically and socially. When we leave Tulane, the
memories will follow and we will continue to be
challenged. The friendships that we found, the les-sons
that we learned, the experiences that we had
prepare us for what lies ahead.
College days were like no other in life, the last gasp
for any form of the carelessness of youth. It was a life
spent with one foot in adulthood while simulta-neously
keeping one foot in childhood. College
times were learning to pay bills, getting credit cards
without credentials, and learning close up what bu-reaucracy
was and how much red tape it could spit in
your face. Look around you. Think about all the
strangers that became your friends. During your time
here, the potential for meeting distinctive people was
overwhelming due to the diversity of the Tulane
population. Tulane may not have been the crossroads
of the world, but in its own way, it was quite a little
melting pot.

Tulane University, an institution
of higher learning, studying the
past in hopes of gaining knowl-edge
into the future. Amidst these
buildings, intertwined with the
books, are people holding and cre-ating
ideas. While the process of
education is continual, the subject,
the way it is taught, the knowledge
held about it, and the people study-ing
it, are constantly changing.
In the heart of these brick build-ings,
students, faculty and adminis-trators
alike are continually adjust-ing,
re-evaluating, and re-adapting
the knowledge they have about
themselves, their society and the
material they are trying to master.
The fact that questions still exist
and are unanswered, problems still
unsolved and some questions not
yet discovered does not belittle the
effort, advancements, and con-quests
these people have made.
Cause for envy exists in this univer-sity.
Although much is not known,
much is still waiting to be discov-ered.
Millions of students have
wandered through this campus and
have taken much with them after
graduation, but in return they have
left ideas, organizations, and tradi-tions
that hold Tulane together.

/"
The future lies in students'
desire to stimulate their
minds, to adjust their expec-tations
and to create their
destinies. Every student that
has studied at Tulane came
to the campus with a founda-tion
already set and pre-pared
for success. This insti-tution
was simply to build on
that foundation so that the
future could mold it to fit
society's demanding and
changing ways. Tulane was
built to inspire the future
leaders in all industries, to
strive for the highest star,
and above all, to do their
best.
Today, the level of pride
felt towards Tulane is high.
The campus is growing,
changing, reaching towards
its final goal of completion.
much like the students. As
the campus changes, so does
its inhabitants. New people-arrive
every year. People at-tempting
to leave their
mark, trying to make the
world a better place to live
through change and growth.
New ideas are stumbled
upon each dav. knowinglv
and unknowingly. These
new ideas are interpreted as
eventual change whereupon
growth occurs.
Students journeying
through Tulane will make
mistakes, experience heart-break,
and rejoice in suc-cess.
However, it is this jour-ney
which is to hi in%ied.

Spirit. That nebulous mix-ture
of enthusiasm, energy,
eagerness, and vitality. It is
such a vague concept, and
difficult to fully define. No
matter how spirit is inter-preted,
there is no denying
that it was on the rise at Tu-lane.
The moods may vary from
day to day, but the spirit re-mains
constant. The feeling
is collective, not felt inde-pendently.
Just as the student
feels achievement, an institu-tion
or an administrator en-counters
a correlating sensa-tion.
Quite often, imaginary
barriers of competition or
battle vanish, and the foe be-comes
friend. The feeling
may or may not be con-scious,
but below the surface
structure, camaraderie exists
among fellow students,
teachers and administrators.

TURNING IT UP
Tulane University is an institution of
subtle, yet constant change. With the pass-ing
of each year, new buildings are built,
new issues arise, and new students are en-rolled
to take the places of those before
them. All new students are unique in that
they bring with them their own goals, their
own values and their own ideas.
The university has evolved over time as
this annual cycle of change has been re-peated,
with each student adding to the
richness and diversity. The student body is
often mistakenly classified as one generic
group having unified beliefs. More realisti-cally,
the students body is comprised of
individuals who are consistently adding
new ideas, adding new outlooks, and add-ing
new perspectives.
The entire undergraduate process is an
ever changing cycle of growth, each year
building upon the other as friendships and
knowledge expand.

ollege life wasn't just listen-ing
to lectures, climbing
'endless flights of stairs to a
room in Monroe Hall after the ele-vator
broke, waiting in line at Ac-counts
Receivable or studying until
the early hours of the morning.
Entertainment provided students
with a break from the stress and
routine of daily life. It was listening
to Charmaine Neville at TGIF,
nights in Fogelman Arena with
men's basketball back after a five
year hiatus from the Metro Confer-ence;
Tip O'Neil and Robert
McFarlane appearing as part of Di-rection
1990.
Students lives were multifaceted.
School wasn't the only important
aspect in life as many students pro-tested
on behalf of various social
causes. Tulane Students Against
Apartheid sat-in on the Board of
Administrators; students participat-ed
in the candlelight march in
memory of Martin Luther King, and
Greenpeace urged students to care
for the environment.
With all the different activities
and responsibilities, the unique
qualities of being college students
came through. The cultural and
purely fun entertainment possibili-ties
were endless.

choices, students found themselves

STUDENT
LIFE
A Week You'll
Never Forget:
Orientation '89
The day you had been waiting for
finally arrived. It was time to enter
into "the best four years of your life."
The anticipation is definitely mount-ing.
You give explicit instructions to
your parents: Don't talk to anyone
unless they talk to you first. What-ever
you do, don't embarrass me-I
have to spend four years here."
The residence halls open at 8 a.m.
but your parents make you line up at
7 a.m. just to get a head start. Your
mother unpacks, makes your bed and
organizes your closet while you run
around trying to look relaxed. Then
the unimaginable happens: your par-ents
leave and you go off in search of
your orientation coordinator.
It is at this point that Tulane's
orientation program shines. All
freshmen are broken into approxi-mately
175 groups led by upperclass-men
who volunteer to serve as group
leaders for Orientation.
The structure of orientation is
similar to the student organizational
system that epitomizes Tulane; it re-lies
heavily on student involvement.
New to the program is the concept
of six orientation team leaders that
serve as the student directors of ori-entation.
They help the Director of
Orientation, plan and execute the
events for the entire week. This past
year the O.T.L.'s were Lee Baxter,
Jeremy Piatt, Ann Coffey, Nickie
Denick, Lisa Brooks and Jude White.
It is the student involvement
which helps make orientation such a
success. After all, who better to help
freshmen get acclimated to college
than people who have already been
successful in the adjustment.

Not even a muddy quad could deter this New-comb
student from kicking off her shoes and
dancing. Besides, everyone has always want-ed
to walk barefoot in mud, but our mothers
never let us.
As Yogi Berra would say, it was deja vu all
over again as Newcomb seniors Lolita Hol-lingsworth
and Tarita Hollingsworth enjoyed
the music on the UC quad for TG1F. It's re-freshing
to see that at the age of 22, they still
haven't outgrown dressing alike.
16 • TGIF
Something Great To
Look Forward To:
TGIF's
TGIF's were a draw for bands of all var-ieties
from the well known to the rela-tively
obscure. One particular Friday
featured reggae musicians as shown in
the above pictures. Performers were al-ways
assured of a good turnout of peo-ple
looking for a good time.
TGIF-it's no longer a saying that
is only applicable in the working
world. Now, the phrase has meaning
on Tulane's campus as TUCP con-tinued
the tradition of TGIF's on the
quads.
Every other Friday afternoon,
from 4-6 p.m. bands were brought
on to campus with the sole purpose
of starting the weekend off right!
Have you had a rough week? Were
those classes too much for even the
most studious person to handle? Do
you have senioritis and you're only a
sophomore? If you answered yes to
even one of these questions, then this
was the place for you to be!
Unfortunately, the TGIF tradition
of SI drafts was canceled due to the
passage of Tulane's alcohol policy.
At first, the lack of alcohol was
thought to be a hindrance; would
people still attend in the same large
numbers that have been supportive in
the past? Due to these questions, this
years' festivities took on a decidedly
different feeling and attitude. The
emphasis was no longer on drinking.
Now it became a time when one
could mingle amongst friends and
acquaintances, listen to good music
and enjoy playing with adorable
puppies.
The only thing that could possibly
infringe upon the TGIF revelry could
be the weather, yet TUCP managed
to come up with a suitable contin-gency
plan. Rainy Fridays are now
spent in the Rat. Not even inclement
weather could dampen a Tulane stu-dents'
celebration!

Thank you very much Eai
Kelly. Cher Gladchuck, Perry Clark,
and the men's basketball team.
Thank you for playing your hearts
out all year, never giving up and sat-isfying
this senior's desire to see bas-ketball
during his college tenure.
This season's play, while not neces-sarily
up there in the W's column,
was by far some of the most enter-taining
basketball I have ever seen.
I enjoyed watching the team come
together. The evolution from that
magic night back in November to
the unthinkable victory over Mem-phis
State in January was incredible.
It was great to see the players learn
from their mistakes and improve
from game to game.
Coach Clark has formed a nucleus
around which some great teams are
sure to be built. The fundamentals
are in place (how else can leading the
Metro in free-throw shooting be ex-plained?)
All that is required now is
some size in the middle and some
experience.
The team never seemed to give up.
and Clark was preaching fundamen-tals
until the end of each game. A
number of times I witnessed Clark
call a player over to the sideline to
give a few pointers on technique or
explain how a play should have been
run. regardless of the score.
I trulv envy the freshman class's
chance to watch Green Wave men's
basketball games for the next three
years. I only hope that the under-classmen
realize how lucky the) are
and continue to support the basket-ball
team like they have this
because it is only with their help that
the program can continue to gn
and prosper.

Hot, Hot, Hot. Could the evening
match up to the anticipatory note
that was left in everyone after seeing
the theme splattered all over T'shirts
and buttons?
Well, Doubting Thomas's put
your cynicism away. Homecoming
was a success from the beginning of
the week to its piece de resistance:
the dance in the Warehouse District.
This year, the committee decided
to expand Homecoming to a week of
competitive events among organiza-tions
in hopes of raising school spirit
and excitement for the big game.
There were contests for the best ban-ner,
adopt a football player, a Mardi
Gras style parade and the ever popu-lar
Go Green Day. Every person that
wore green won points for their or-ganizations
and was given a Hot,
Hot, Hot spirit button. The organiza-tion
that won the most points in
each category was awarded the ulti-mate
prize: extra motivation money
to be deposited directly into their
nine account.
The night before the big game, the
parade wound around campus and
down Broadway, ending up on But-ler
Quad. Then a spectacular fire-works
display set the stage for a dy-namic
performance from Ms. Char-maine
Neville.
Then, it was time for the big game.
Every one was dressed in their very
best and piled into the Superdome to
cheer our team onto victory. The
players heard our chants of support
as the team went on to beat Memphis
State. The ever popular half time
show saw the court being presented
to Dr. Eamon Kelley while the Tu-iane
Band played our song.

syndicated television program
"Wheel of Fortune" as part of Col-lege
Week. We would appear in il-lustrious
company as Tulane com-peted
against University of Washing -

Northwestern University.
110 Tulane students were put
through the ringer during try-outs
conducted in April. After several
elimination tests and drills, the
shows' Promotion Coordinator and
the producer narrowed it down to
four competitors and two alternates.
The lucky team consisted of Bon-nie
Furer, a Newcomb sophomore
business major; Gina Lazarone, a
Newcomb junior majoring in biol-ogy;
Fred Mcintosh, an A&S psy-chology
junior and Neil Fineman, a
senior from A&S also majoring in
psychology. Jenny Oh and Travis
Langley were selected as the alter-nates.
The team was flown out to Los
Angeles courtesy of Delta Airlines
and hotel accomodations were pro-vided
by TUCP who was sponsoring
this event.
The College Week Tournament is
run somewhat differently than the
show's regular competition. Any cash
and prizes won by team members on
the first four days of competition are
theirs to keep. Then, the three top
scoring schools advance to the final
day and any cash or prizes won go
directly to the University.
Although the Tulane team played
quite well, they were not among the

TUCP has always been known to
bring in great concerts and this par-ticular
concert was no exxeption. So
who is the group that had the ability
to fill McAlister while they were
here? The answer is quite simple.
Perhaps one of the best performances
of the year was put on by Ladysmith
Black Mambazo.
Now, anyone familiar with the
Grammy Award winning album by
Paul Simon entitled Graceland
should be familiar with Ladysmith
Black Mambazo. The group is from
South Africa and they were charged
with a mission: to bring South Afri-can
culture to the United States.
Their mission was deemed a success
by all who were in attendance in
McAlister Auditorium.
The show lasted for more than
three hours and no one left the audi-torium
unhappy. Yet it went much
deeper than that. For one evening,
people were not only entertained but
educated. Everyone knows or has
heard about the plight of blacks and
whites in South Africa facing apart-heid
every day. For one evening, stu-dents
were taught about African cul-ture
while simultaneously being en-thralled
with the tradition and the
costumes. The timing could not have
been more appropriate. Just a few
weeks after the show, South African
activist Nelson Mandela was released
after spending 17 years in captivity.

On February 22, L990,
( afe was transformed into a ma

first annual Mardi Gras Ball.
Dash Rip Rock was cordially invited
to be the band of choice to plav until
the wee hours of the morning.
The crowd was great, and all
in a festive mood as Fat Tuesday
quickly approaching. "Throw me
something mister" was heard
throughout the evening as students
were practicing their chorus of cheers
for the parades.
The evening was created by the
Newcomb Senate and tickets were
sold in advance. The night was so
successful that tickets were com-pletely
sold out two days after going
on sale; not too shabby for a school
that is supposed to be apathetic.
Anyone who attended would pro-claim

Selected excerpts reprinted trom the Hullabaloos Readers
Poll Issue March 9, 1990.
r to be reckoned with
Hoops back, and much more
1989-90 was by all means a year of
firsts and lasts. In terms of firsts, the
basketball team resumed play after five
long years and made a triumphant re-turn
to Tulane on Saturday, Oct. 14,
with Midnight Mania in Fogelman
Arena. Neptune, the Green Wave's new
mascot, was revealed as well.
Students were also offered a new pro-gram
called "Teach for America," spon-sored
on campus by the Office of Mi-nority
Affairs. The program is designed
to get college students without educa-tion
degrees or certification across the
country to teach at primary levels in
inner-city and rural grade schools. The
organization is modeled after the Peace
Corps and began in response to the
teacher shortages in the United States.
Women's golf was also added this year.
Athletic Director Chet Gladchuk re-marked
that, "Tulane in particular would
be an outstanding location and institu-tion
for having a top-notch golf pro-gram."
Nonetheless, Tulane saw the termina-tion
of different organizations as well.
Both men's and women's swimming
teams were suspended indefinitely due
to a lack of money in the Metro Confer-ence
budget. The swimmers still re-tained
their scholarships for their stay at
Tulane and were awarded NCAA eligi-bility
if they decided to transfer to an-other
school.
The Gay and Lesbian Alliance also
experienced a period of inactivity, but
members said it didn't reflect a lack of
interest or necessity.
"We just have a tough time getting
members to come to on-campus meet-ings,"
Jerry, a former member of the Al-liance,
said.
In early April, one other organization
announced its decision to terminate. The
Media Board discontinued the Jam-balaya
yearbook because of financial
problems and a lack of student interest.
The fate of the yearbook seems to fit the
national trend, as universities across
America are scrapping yearbook or-ganizations.
Exercising the right to protest
During the past year, some student
organizations took a firm stand for their
causes, and thus became a campus-wide
topic of conversation, especially in
areas dealing with the environment.
Environment Day, co-sponsored by
representatives from Tulane's Green
Club and Recycle Tulane, which is a
function of the Community Action
Council of Tulane University Students,
was celebrated in October to inform the
university community about environ-mental
issues.
Soon after Environment Day, approxi-mately
100 Tulane students, faculty
members and others marched two miles
from the campus to the Mississippi River
on Nov. 12 to protest the river's pollu-tion
and abuse. "The March to the Mis-sissippi"
was designed by the new or-ganization,
Students for Environmental
Action.
Another area of student concern was
South Africa. Tulane Students Against
Apartheid rallied on Nov. 16 to protest
Tulane's investments in companies
which they maintain bolster apartheid
in South Africa.
Under the direction of Arts and Sci-ences
senior Tim Wise, TSAA fought
for more than a year for some positive
response and commitment from the
University. Soon after, Tulane's hold-ings
in South Africa were revealed and
caused much student opposition from
TSAA and others.
Although former African National
Congress leader Nelson Mandela's re-lease
from a prison in South Africa sym-bolized
progress, TSAA was nowhere
near satisfied. "Relaxing tyranny and
ending apartheid are not the same,"
Wise said.
Then, in late March, TSAA constructed
shanties on Gibson Circle as a protest
against Tulane's investment in compa-nies
operating in South Africa. Students
said the purpose of the demonstration,
which culminated in a hunger-strike,
was to publicize the University's invest-ment
policy.
Giant strides in research
In the public eye, Tulane has upwardly
progressed in certain research areas in
the past year.
Tulane researchers, headed by Michael
Murphy-Corb, announced the develop-ment
of a vaccine protecting monkeys
from the AIDS virus. The vaccine pre-vented
eight out of nine monkeys from
becoming infected.
In addition, Dr. James S. Malter, direc-tor
of experimental pathology at the
Tulane University School of Medicine,
discovered cell proteins that cause cells
to grow in a way similar to that in which
cancer cells grow. His findings were
published in the Nov. 3 issue of Science
Magazine. To aid with his research, the
Louisiana Division of the American
Cancer Society is funding three grants
at the Tulane Medical School.
Tulane was also given $26 million
from the Department of Defense to fund
bioenvironmental research conducted
by the Center for Bioenvironmental
Research, located in the Lindy Boggs
building, sometime this spring.

Over the course of the year, Tulanc
hosted various speakers whose topics of
focus ranged from Eastern Europe to
the status of the black community.
The Direction forum presented the
community with former Speaker of the
House Thomas "Tip" O'Neill, former
Governor of Arizona Bruce Babbit, and
formerNational Security Advisor Robert
McFarlane.
Tulane also hosted a meeting between
mayoral candidates of New Orleans,
Donald Mintz and Sidney Barthelemy,
prior to Barthelemy 's victory. Each
addressed his prospective plans for the
city.
Jesse Jackson visited the campus again
this year, and on March 23 he spoke to
a crowd in McAlister Auditorium on
apartheid, divestment and the need for
African-American studies programs at
Tulane.
Our place in the big picture
Mother Nature caused a nationwide
shock to hit home witli some Tulanc
students this year as a major earthquake
ripped through San Francisco on Oct.
24. Family members and friends of
students living in the area were fortu-nate
to have escaped significant losses.
In addition, the war in Panama hit
home for several Tulanc students who
live there.
Solly Bchar, an Arts and Sciences senior
and native of Panama, called the fight-ing
a "vacation war" and said that once
the initial fighting was done, the subse-quent
fire-fights were easily contained.
He lives across the street from the Papal
Nuncio and could sec the maneuvering
of American troops.
"I was held up at gunpoint in broad
daylight in a section of ghetto near
where the United States bombed
Noriega's central headquarters," Behar
said.
Also, this winter's nationwide flu epi-demic
did not neglect the Tulane com-munity,
and students were advised to
get flu shots as well as the mandatory
immunization shots for measles, mumps
and rubella.
Closer to home, Tulane Engineering
senior Alex Yang finished second in the
College Championships of the televi-sion
game show "Jeopardy." Yang won
a total of $24,60 1 , which he plans to use
to finance a trip to Europe or a new car.
City corruption affects students
Crime soared in the French Quarter
this year, and Engineering sophomore
Walter William Becker, Jr., suffered from
multiple knife wounds after being
stabbed by a New Orleans man, Ty-ronne
Boutte, just outside Tropical Isle
on Aug. 30. Becker is back in school,
and Boutte was charged with attempted
murder in the stabbing.
Another crime was finally resolved
this year after four years of waiting and
wondering. On Friday, Feb. 10, Jon-athan
Hawkins was sentenced to life in
prison for the murder of architecture
professor Samuel Klingcnsmith on Oct.
13, 1986. Klingcnsmith was shot and
killed by Hawkins as Hawkins attempted
to mug Klingcnsmith.
How do we rank, you ask?
Overall, Tulanc came out ahead of
every other university in the nation in
percentages of students who go on to
graduate school.
Ncwcomb College also fared well and
became the leader in producing recipi-ents
of the Watson Fellowship. Out of a
possible 1 6 awards in the last four years,
1 3 students were awarded Fellowships,
making Ncwcomb the first in the nation
Tulane is also well on its way to be-come
a leader in producing post-gradu-ate
scholars, as the University gained
the position of sixth place in the number
of recipients of Rhodes Scholarships.
For the first time Tulane moved into
the nation's undergraduate top 20 this
year, according to a survey of college
costs conducted by the College Board.
And the planned increase in tuition for
next year, coupled with the apparent
lack of commensurate growth in finan-cial
aid, inspired students to sign peti-tions
protesting the University's pre-carious
strategic plan.
Changes in the academic curriculum
for the coming years were also an-nounced.
The physical education stan-dards,
beginning with next year's fresh-men
class, will be the same three-course
requirement for both Ncwcomb Col-lege
and Arts and Sciences students.
In addition, the Curriculum Commit-tee
decided to keep the four-class, four-credit
hour curriculum after a debate to
change to a three-hour standard.
In summary, though this is a shallow
overview of the events that composed
the 1989-90 school year, it does offer
some insight as to how the Tulane
community busied itself over the course
of the year. And now. as final exams
appear in the near future and bags arc
packed, the community is left with
memories to last a lifetime.

Answer: Simplv by at-tending
the Second Annual Spring
Break Sendoff Party sponsored by
Aron Residences at Stadium Place.
The common room at Stadium
Place was changed into a cornucopia
of vacation hot spots. Each corner
was transformed into the different
islands and the places most frequent-ly
traveled by Tulane students.
Knowing that most people go in
search of the sun and fun. each is-land's
host and hostess were dressed
in spring attire and served tropical
drinks ranging from Pina Colada's to
Strawberry Daiquiri's.
Approximately 300 people put in
an appearance and were greeted at
the door by smiling workers eager to
put a Hawaiian lei around your neck.
This was better than Fantasy Island.
All that was missing was Mr. Rourke.
One expected to hear Tatoo yell "Za
plane! Za Plane!'' at any minute.
Once you were leid. you instantly
became eligible for anv number of
door prizes that were given awav at
the end. The prizes ranged from T-shirts
designed for the partv to kites
with all kinds of beach stuff thrown
in for good measure.
One thing was for sure. There was
enough variet) tor all who attended
and the price was definitely right.
With all the key ingredients met -

Students striving to . (Ter-ence
- isn't that what Tulane is all
about.' Due to the unique Student
Activities philosophy, students are
often establishing organizations that
support their beliefs and are allowed
to develop these beliefs and turn
them into actions.
Two organizations sought to bring
attention to two national problems:
Apartheid and Aids. Tulane Anti-
Apartheid Alliance sought to raise
students' consciousness of the dis-turbing
problem in South Africa. A
week of activities was held in Octo-ber;
with the main attraction being a
film series which helped shed some
light onto this unfortunate situation.
C.O.A.P is an organization trying
to warn students about the dangers
of AIDS and the need for safe sex.
AIDS is sweeping the nation in star-tling
numbers and people are dying
in alarmingly high percentages. It is
no longer a disease of homosexuals;
it know no boundaries or limits, class
distinction or personality traits.
By bringing the problem and the
potential solutions into the open,
C.O.A.P. hopes to educate the pub-lic.
It sponsored events such as the
National Condom Week which coin-cided
with Valentines' Day. During
the "kisses and condoms" campaign,

while scoping out fantastic bargain

college student in his or her right
mind would buy retail when great
buys are literally in our own back
yard? Midterms were over, the check
from my parents just arrived, and
formal was right around the corner
so I decided to amble on down to
check out the merchandise. I strutted
past the finely crafted clay figurines
and went directly to the first table of
jewelry. Avidly I began clawing my
way towards the front as I felt that
money burning a hole in my pocket.
Immediately something caught my
eye -it was the most gorgeous pair of
crystal earrings I had ever seen.
Needless to say, as the sun caught
the many faceted sides the earrings
seemed to speak to me: "Buy me. I'll
look stunning with your formal
dress." Who am I to argue with an
inanimate object, so I bought them.
Next. I practically ran to the table
with all sorts of tie-dyed objects on
it. The man behind the table gave me
a plethora of fashion hints -ail having
something to do with tie -dye. I took
him up on some ideas, I mean after
all. he was forecasting the season
ahead. I don't remember much after
that because the emotion of the
buying frenzy that followed overtook
me but judging from how much I
bought, the afternoon was a success
and I am counting down the days
until next year's show. -]. Cohen
A Craft Show On

m 'hey come to share, if only
moment, a way of life, savoring an
"eat, drink and be merry" style
adopted by a population who's
learned to dance and sing its way
through adversity. Most of all they
are drawn by a feeling of nostalgia, a
yarning to revisit the past through
links which are unique: the French
quarter, paddle wheel boats, the gas-light
era street lamps, the horse
drawn buggies goihng past iron bal-conies.
These people are the tourists
who have felt the insatiable pull to-wards
a way of life unlike any othe
which can only be found here.
The mystery of the attraction is
found deep in the bayous hanging
with Spanish moss, along the levees
with the tugboats as they climb the
Mississippi River, in the Creoles, Ca-juns
and Yats who make groceries
and ride in buses marked Cemeteries.
This city is the epitomy of history
and its people are constant reminders

Marathon
The time had come. Tht
was here and the weather
This could only mean one 'hin
a
was time for the WTUL JOth Annual
Rock-on Survival Marathon. Mar-athoh,
as it has commonly become
known, is held tor three days every
spring semester.
WTUL is the student run pro_
sive radio station and Marathon is its'
main fundraiser. Once again, there-were
three DJ's who were broadcast-ing
for 24 hours each atop Tulane's
University Center. Thev accepted re-quests
and pledges of money to hear
your favorite song or album side.
Well, that takes care of the people
listening on the radio at home, but
what about the hundreds of people
that attend the Marathon. What is
there for them.-' Plenty. Throughout
the course of the weekend, there are
over 15 bands playing on the quad
for pure entertainment and enjoy-ment.
The festivities lasted all day
Saturday and Sunday from Noon to
Seven. After graciously paying the
donation fee of SI. you could hang
out on the quad for as long as you'd
like, listen to great music, eat lots of
crawfish and drink lots of beer I only
it you were of age. of course, i You
also got to spend time with people
you haven't seen since you're fresh-men
year - I know, you thought they
transfered. didn't you!!
All in all. the weekend proved to
be a tremendous success. As with any
organization, the next day began

were not on the job that they did. but
how to top it next year. One can

Spring time signifies a few things
. . . the start of the baseball seas
Warm weather; May day celebrat:
just to name a few. Perhaps the n
important thing is the period of
change it represents. The greatest
change comes for the seniors; for it is
a time of tremendous growth and
transformation. No longer college
students, they are now thrust upon
the world, ready to demonstrate all
that they gained from their educa-tion.
It is thereby time for the most
beloved part of the school year -
Senior Week; a week which enables
all a chance to see people that they
haven't seen since freshmen year.
One hilight of the week is the annual
reception that Dr and Mrs Kelley
hold at their house for the graduating
class. Since each particular division
has its' own commencement ceremo-ny,
this is one of the only times that
the entire class has a chance to con-gregate
in one place and socialize.
Probably the first chance since the
opening convocation during Fresh-men
Orientation.
The champagne reception is held
tor the seniors only (there's someone
checking invitations at the door, so
don't think of crashing next year.
)
Throughout the corners of each
room, sniplets of conversations could
be overheard. Such things as "So.
what are you doing next year?" "Can
you believe he's here ... I thought
he transfered after Freshmen yeai
"Have you heard from Law Schools
yet?" and "Oh my god - I can't be-lieve

Oh What A Delight
In February I went to a play for
Campus Nite which was nothing less
than phenomenal. "A Funny Thing
Happened on the Way to the Forum"
is a musical about a Roman Harem.
Shown in Dixon Hall, "A Funny
Thing Happened ..." takes place in
ancient Rome. Members of the en-semble
include Timothy Gray, Rob
Slaughter, Dawn Zimmerman, An-drew
Johnson, Scott Novak, Randy
Lanoir and Preston Marx who gave a
performance not be matched. The
songs brought back those familiar
melodies and for a couple of hours I
was taken out of Tulane, away from
books and papers, and transformed
into Rome, which is a good thing
since I've always wanted to see the
place. Rome is beautiful and my
pseudo-out of body experience was
cheaper than a plane ticket, not to
mention I didn't have to deal with
customs on the way back.
The great thing about "A Funny
Thing Happened on the Way to the
Forum" is the music which, like last
year's Grease sticks in your mind for
approximately two weeks and ten
minutes after you leave the audito-rium.
All week long I go around
humming and instead of "Love
Shack" running through my head
twenty four hours a day, it's either a
song from "A Funny Thing Hap-pened
on the Way to the Forum" or
Grease Lightning."
Anyway, the performers were fan-tastic,
the sets are gorgeous, the
songs were catchy, and the entire au -
dience left Dixon Auditorium feeling
happy.

Thirty years and still going strong
. . . how many other musical perfor-mances
can boast of that feat? Phan-tom
of the Opera? Not yet. Les Mis-erables?
Not close. Starlight Express?
Even though it came to the Saenger
theatre, the answer is still no. How
about the longest running show in
Broadway's history, A Chorus Line?
Not even the most famous show
lasted for thirty years. So what pro-duction
can brag about such tremen-dous
success? Why the Tulanians, of
course.
For those of you who have lived
under a rock and have no grasp on
many of the real world happenings at
Tulane, the Tulanians is a student
performance troupe responsible for
all aspects of the show, from song
selection to set design, choreography
to costumes, orchestra to organiza-tion,
practice to performances. This
year was no different as the group
put on their annual fall and spring
shows to packed crowds. So who
exactly is this group comprised of
and what type of music do they sing?
They are filled with students of all
ages from seniors to freshmen, law
students and architecture students
(Chip, where exactly do you fit in)
Every semester sees changes in the
group and this one was no different.
As people left the group, new people
came in, each bringing their own
unique style which added to the
groups' diversity and dimension. The
song selection for this show featured
current hits such as "Opposites At-tract",
"Love Shack", and "How Am
I Supposed to Live Without You?"
There were also a plethora of old
favorites which allowed parents to
enjoy the show as much as students.
Such classics as "Swing Low, Sweet
Chariot", "Blinded by the Light",

The song had not yet been released when Andy Kopp and Lauri

their version of the Michael Bolton hit, "From Now On."

(Above top & middie) Where would the group be
without the band? Just ask Pat Domes and Scott
Shapiro, who rely on them for the right note.
Lauri Bomstein (top) brought tears to the eyes
of many in the audience with her solo perfor-mance
of "How Am I Supposed To Live Without
You". Earlier in the show, Missi Kessler and Scott
Shapiro (below) sang two of the vocal parts for
the classic, hit "The Chain".

The full group decided to do an acapella version
of the classic song "Swing Low, Sweet Chariot."
It was one of the highlights of the show.

name to become one of the Judd's aft?
'
incredible version of their hif'Love Is Aliv"
( xwe). The band provided the notes as Lauri
Imstein and Andy Kopp provided the vocals on
J ir duet "From Now On."
Vocalists Chris McKeon and Scott Shapiro per-formed
the classic "Cecila". The audience
clapped along and kept up with the rhythm of the
song.
"Cecilia"' and Love-. Me Like A
Rock" allowed tor a diversity that
kept the audience entertained.
With the end of even year comes
the arduous task of saying goodbye
to people that have been involved in
the organization for many pert -
mances and this year was no differ-ent.
The loss of two graduating vo-calists,
Lauri Bomstein and Chip von
Unwerth, will be apparent. However
the school is made up of many tal-ented
people, and it this past semes-ter
was an indication, the group will
continue to flourish.

On Tulane's campus. Direction is
the leader on current socio -political
activity in the United States. One of
the oldest organizations on campus,
Direction has continued to be the
source to turn to in order to find out
current fundamental problems facing
society today. These issues are ad-dressed
annually at a speaker's sym-posium
where prominent leader, per-sonalities
and intellectuals come to-gether
to tackle the world's prob-lems.
Some issues that were dis-cussed
this year were the European
community, the possible fall of com-munism
and the new decade for man.
Speakers included the 47th Speaker
of the U.S. House of Representatives.
"Tip" O'Neil, Britain's Prime Minis-ter
Thatcher's Spokesperson to the
European Economic Community.
Mr. Bryan Cassidy, The Governor's
of Tennessee and Arizona Governor
Lamar Alexander and Governor
Bruce Babbit, plus a host of others.
Being a renowned and respected
organization in the community and
all over the United States, it is no
wonder why the program continues
to grow and continues to provide
free exchange between students,
speakers, faculty and the New Or-leans
community.

How is it possible to spend only
twenty minutes 2nd no money while
simultaneously giving something that
is as precious as life? By participating
in any one of the numerous blood
drives sponsored by the Tulane
Blood Center, students are painlessly
given the opportunity to provide
people with blood.
Students are able to give an auto-logus
donation (banking blood for
themselves), cover any members of
their family, or help patients in criti-cal
condition at Tulane Medical
Center. Blood drives are not held
solely for strangers. Whenever a
member of the Tulane community
becomes ill, an emergency blood
drive is held to gather the blood type
that he or she may need. This is just
another example of how Tulane
reaches out to help it's own as well as
members of the community.
However, the benefits of the
blood drives do not end there. Stu-dents
who are interested in medicine
are provided with the necessary train-ing
to ultimately help with the blood
drives. The helpers are taught how to
administer the important question -
aires, how to administer the impor-tant
questionnaires, how to take vital
signs, and how to answer any ques-tions
that the donor might have.
The effort put in by the donor is
minimal and the results and benefits
are so great and numerous. What
more could you ask for in a program.
Besides, you get free juice and cook-ies;
not since Kindergarten has any-one
had such a good offer. So what
are you waiting for? The next time
there's a blood drive, you should be
the first one in line - someone's life
may depend on it.

Come one, Come all to the greatest
show on earth!! Well, it wasn't Ringling
Brothers and it wasn't exactly three
rings under the big top, but the Royal
Lichtenstein Traveling Circus brought
many laughs to the audience on Butler
Quad, Billed as the smallest living cir-cus,
the cast of less than five performers
livened up the lunch hour for many
students and faculty members. Al-though
there were no elephants present,
the crowd was still thoroughly enter-tained
and no one walked away un-happy.
The "Giant" 1/4 ring attracted pass-ers
by and was an invitation to an hours'
worth of fun and excitement. Spon-sored
by the Religious Life organiza-tions,
the circus arrived on a Wednes-day
and helped all weary people get
over hump day and through the rest of
the week. Laughter is the best medicine
and this was no exception. "I had no
idea they were coming. I just happened
to wander across the quad and there
they were. I ended up staying for over
an hour and had a great time," said Jeri
Ann Baker, a Newcomb junior.
A good circus brings a smile to many
faces and this one was no exception. "I
had just walked out of a killer calculus
exam and my mind was focused on bed.
Then I remembered about the circus
and decided to go. It put a smile on my
face that lasted for the whole day," said
Kevin Oufnac, an A&S junior.
Although the circus is the smallest,
no one can state that it lacked com-pleteness.
The traveling group included
a tight rope, rings of fire and even a
cotton candy booth.

Mardi Gras»87
88 * Mardi Gras
Mardi Gras has become a proces-sion
of visions, visions of people -
Thousands of them spread along
winding avenues and clustered
among tall buildings. Through the
people pass the parades, which are
comprised of bands, horses and
strings of floats and each floats a
rolling theater. Atop them, huge pa-pier-
mache heads move from side to
side laughing with the crowds. With
visions come sound; the sounds of
Carnival cannot be avoided, thev
saturate the mind. With radios and
jukeboxes, the folks around town
rollick and roll to spirited, soulful
rhythm and blues.
There were other sounds emanat-ing
from the festival. Down amongst
the crowd came the clang of alumi-num
doubloons flung from a float,
bouncing on the concrete. Feet be-gan
to stomp, trying desperately to
trap a spinning coin. People stoop
and hands scrape the pavement in
search of elusive souvenirs. Others
stretch their arms; their mouths gape
- they yell, plead, beg, cajore and flirt
hoping to catch what will be trash
the next day. The thrill of the prize
comes not from possessing but from
capturing.
As midnight approaches, the dis-tant
noise of the last late-night pa-rade
can be heard pushing its
along the streets- bands ot sanita:
workers, mounted poiicc. .t line ot
trucks. The trucks have r:Jci>.
but instead of flinging trinkets to the
crowd as thev pass, the riders
them, the remains ot vet another Car-nival
Day.
No description can capture the
New Orleans celebration 1*0 thin!

the week "t finals. We walk around
in ripped clothes and hj its.
We wear our glasses instead of our
contact lenses. There's a three day
growth on g faces as opposed to
the characteristically clean shaven
look that epitomizes all other times
in the year. Our hair is up in a clip, a
ponytail or has a baseball cap nestled
tightly on top. No cover-up is used
to conceal the circles under our eves
- after all, what good is an all-nighter
if no one can tell you pulled one.'
Make-up . . . what's that.' The long-est
line on campus belongs not to the
library, but to PJ's.
Finals. The mere sound of the
word makes you cringe. You break
out in a cold sweat, your hands shake
and it feels like the bottom of your
stomach is going to fall out. The
most dreaded week of any semester
came much faster than you ever
dared possible. Suddenly you're
faced with the prospect of reading
( not reviewing but reading |

before the exam in the morning.
There's nothing left to do but resort
to the most drastic measures: a quart

uick - think about
Greek life - what
comes to mind? Rush? Bid
Day? Friendship? Diversity?
Conformity? Unity? Scandal?
Philanthropy?
There is no single adjective
that can accurately describe
Greek life. Whether you view
Greeks as positive, negative,
or have no opinion, there is no
doubt that the Greek system is
alive at Tulane!
The 1989-90 year was a
newsmaking year for Greeks.
While "scandals" abounded,
Greeks made some progres-sive
steps towards improving
their reputation with activities
such as Building a Better
Broadway, anti-hazing lec-tures,
and individual philan-thropys
such as fighting Mus-cular
Dystrophy, Prevention of
Child Abuse and Multiple
Sclerosis.
The year past proved to be a
turbulent year for Greeks,
however, with all the strength
Greeks have behind them, the
future will improve.
The Greek system brings to-gether
a diverse group of peo-ple
and develops among them
a common bond of brother-hood
and sisterhood. With the
addition of each pledge class,
fraternities and sororities ex-pand
upon the deep-rooted
traditions unique to their par-ticular
house. By bringing to-gether
new perspectives each
year, each chapter thus con-tinuously
develops its' charac-ter
while it grows in many di-rections.

The 1989-1990 Interfraternity

off to a quick start this year
with a project called Build a
Better Broadway. For years
neighborhood residents have
complained about the trash so
each fraternity and sorority was
assigned to clean a certain area.
The Greek Councils put on
Greek Fest and do other activi-ties
which benefit both the
Greek community and Tulane
as a whole.

uzzz!!! The bleary eyed
student turned off the
alarm after going through the
snooze cycle four times, rolled
out of bed, and hit the shower.
It was 7:30 a.m. and time to get
ready for that 8:30 lecture
class in Gibson Hall.
Caffeine was a necessity for
those early morning classes as
well as the late night study ses-sions.
And life during finals
week - well, it was sheer mis-ery.
But each quiz, test and
term paper carried us one step
closer to the ultimate goal-
Graduation!
There were dreaded classes
like Organic Chemistry that
students never skipped and
other classes meeting at 3:00
p.m. on Friday afternoons that
were frequently missed. There
were 7:30 a.m. lab classes,
night classes and late after-noon
classes.
Just as the types of classes
varied, so did the places and
means of studying. Some stu-dents
studied while watching
TV and others chose the li-brary.
Another popular alter-native
was the happy blend of
atmosphere and caffeine that
PJ.'s had to offer. Besides
classes, it was the faculty that
set this area apart. As each
professor tried to lay down a
challenging curriculum, they
also reached out to give stu-dents
individualized attention.
It was this devotion that led
others to be envious of our
academic departments . .
IT OUT
Students often found themselves
running around trying to take ad-vantage
of all the opportunities of-fered
in the diverse curriculum and
in the daily rigors of
ACADEMICS
For only one full-time professor, five
courses, and a handful of students
meeting in a borrowed classroom to a
curriculum of about 100 courses taught
by 40 full-time and 24 part-time faculty
in a six-story, $7-million building of its
own — The A.B. Freeman School of
Business has come a long way in 75
years.
But some of the goals remain the
same.
The 104 members of the New Or-leans
Association for Commerce pro-vided
financial guarantees for the
school at first, as well as a place to
meet. Experienced businessmen all, they
were convinced the courses in commer-cial
law, foreign trade, accounting, eco-nomics
and business, and Spanish
would prepare them for doing business
on an international scale.
Today, 854 students take courses in
some of the same subjects, preparing to
work in a global business community of
enormous complexity. "Our long-term
objective is to prepare business people
to compete in global markets," says
Dean James McFarland.
Global concerns demand new flexi-bility
in business programs, and the
Freeman School is responding, in some
cases by drawing together disparate
fields. In 1987, for example, the school
established a joint -degree program with
Latin American studies, and in 1989 a
new doctoral program in applied eco-nomics
and behavioral sciences, direct-ed
by C. Jevons Lee, will draw together
resources from throughout the universi-ty-oes
Global
The Freeman School curriculum is
also being adapted in light of the tre-mendous
impact of information and in-formation
technology. Says McFarland,
"The explosion of information technol-ogy
and the ability to find, store and
manipulate information is decentraliz-ing
companies. The manger's job is
changing."
But as information technology
grows, communication skills become
even more important. The Freeman
School requires all students to study
communications, McFarland points
out, and has state -of-the art studio and
video equipment in its Management
Communication Center to help them
develop appropriate presentation and
writing skills.
Says McFarland, "Business education
needs to be as broad as possible. We
now need to look outward. We aspire
to be the best small business school in
the world."

On-the-job Training
Never let it be said that Tulane stu-ents
won't travel the world to enhance
IJieir education.
About a dozen students from Tu-ne's
Murphy Institute of Political
conomy received on-the-job training
i the summer of 1989 through intern
-
lips on Capitol Hill and in Cambridge
nd London, England.
Four political economy students at-
•nded the Institute of Comparative
conomic and Political Systems at
Georgetown University under the
Fund for American studies" program,
he Tulane participants received credit
)r the program but no grades.
"It's not an official Tulane summer
:hool program, but it is a program we
.-commend to students," said Judith
chafer, assistant director of the Mur-hy
Institute. "I think it's an experience
lat they're not going to get anywhere
Ise."
Political economy senior Sue Saba
Kerned with the Fund for a Conserva-ve
Majority, a political action com-littee
that focuses on supporting con-
;rvative candidates. Part of her work
uring the internship involved making a
uget list of members of the House of
Representatives who are most likely to
•e vulnerable to dei at in congressional
ices. She also worked on an article
bout the low turnover rate in the
louse. The FCM planned to publicize
M research in Washington newspapers,
ut. she says, a congressman came up
nth tlie same statistics and his story
ppeared tirst.
Matthew Breitman, a political econ-omy
major from Manhattan, interned in
Senator Alfonse d'Amato's office on
Capitol Hill. D'Amato, a Republican, is
from New York.
"I worked with a legislative assistant
in the senator's office," said Breitman,
who is senior class president in the Col-lege
of Arts and Sciences. Once the
assistant realized how interested Breit-man
was in politics, she allowed him
more responsibility, he said. Breitman
wrote a floor position on a community
block development grant program for
the senator and did research on amend-ments
so that the assistant would be
briefed before meetings.
"The best thing I got out of the
internship was working on Capitol
Hill," said Breitman, who would like to
become a lawyer. "The internship gave
me some insight into how laws actually
come about."
Several political economy majors at-tended
the Institute of Economics and
Politics at Cambridge and London this
past summer. INSTEP is an officially
approved summer school program at
Tulane and students receive Tulane
credit and grades for the courses and
internships.
"I looked around Britain for an intel-lectually
tough summer school that
would introduce Tulane students to a
European faculty professor of political
science and director or Tulane's sum-mer
program at INSTEP.
Political economy senior Jason
Cronic interned at the Cambridge office
of Arthur Young and Co., an account-ing
firm. He researched the amount of
French Investment in England. His pro-ject
required working with the French
Chamber of Commerce to get the num -
ber of firms involved.
"It exposed me to different types in
the financial world," Cronic said. He
plans to attend law school, and the in-ternship
provided him firsthand exper-ience
on which to base his choice be-tween
criminal law or litigation as a
career.
Sophomore Neil Blumofe had what
he considers one of the more enjoyable
internships in the INSTEP program.
The English and political economy ma-jor
interned at the Imperial War Muse-um
in Duxford, near Cambridge. His
duties included doing research about
American servicemen in England during
World War II. He also interviewed vet-erans
for an oral history project con-nected
with the museum.
"It's unbelievable how positive the
students' feedback has been." Baigent
said, adding that reports from the agen -
cies that sponsor the internships have
been just as enthusiastic.
Baigent expects 15-20 Tulane stu-dents
to participate in INSTEP in the
summer of 1990. As an extra treat, he is
hoping to arrange a Field trip to Brussels
to observe the Commission for the Eu-ropean
Economic Community and
NATO.

Scholarship
Tuiane seniors Kraig Kinchen and
Huy Quoc Tran have been chosen for
the highly competitive Marshall Schol-arships.
The pair join 28 other winners,
out of 800 nominees nationally, who
will have all their expenses paid for two
years of study at universities in Great
Britain. Both students plan medical ca-reers:
Tran in neuroscience and Kinchen
in healthcare policy and administration.
The Marshalls, awarded annually to
outstanding U.S. students, were estab-lished
by Great Britain in 1953 as an
expression of gratitude for America's
role in Europe's recovery after World
War II. Kinchen and Tran bring the
total number of Marshall Scholars cho-sen
from Tuiane to five since 1982.
Kinchen and Tran were also in the
running for the Rhodes Scholarship, but
both withdrew when they won the Mar-shall.
Two other Tuiane seniors, Norton
Francis from Albuquerque, N.M., and
Thomas Price from Vicksburg, Miss.,
were state finalists in the Rhodes com-petition.
Kinchen To Oxford
Tuiane senior Kraig Kinchen didn't
have a lot of time to chat on the eve of a
quick jaunt to the Northeast for pre-
Thanksgiving interviews with Harvard
and Yale medical schools.
After these sessions, Kinchen, 21,
would jet to Atlanta for another all-important
meeting — with the final re-view
board from the 1990 Marshall
Scholarship competition.
"I'm excited about the opportunity
to compete and very happy that I've

reached the interview stage," said Kin-chen
prior to his journey.
On December 7, Kinchen learned the
happy news: he had been named a Mar-shall
scholar, entitling him to two years
of all-expenses-paid study at a British
university.
"I'm really excited about the oppor-tunity
to study in Britain again," said
Kinchen, who spent his junior year
abroad at Oxford.
As a pre-med student majoring in
sociology and biology and a volunteer
in several campus organizations, Kin-chen
is no stranger to pulling double -
duty in academics and public service. In
Kinchen's case, the two worlds often
overlap.
Kinchen's senior thesis, which ex-plores
the prevalence of hypertension in
America's homeless population, grew
out of volunteer work at the New Or-leans
Health Department's Health Care
for the Homeless Clinic in Downtown
New Orleans.
"What really gives me a feel for the
area is my work at the clinic," said Ken,
who devotes about five hours a week to
studying medical histories and taking
vital signs. Calling the homeless "an of-ten
forgotten group," Kinchen said he
hopes his study "will heighten aware-ness
or their health needs."
"He's a wonderful guy to work
with," said Favrot Professor of Human
Relations, James Wright, Kinchen's
thesis adviser, declining all credit for his
student's success. "Kraig is extraordi-narily
bright. He's extremely self-moti-vated
and self- directed. I've enjoyed
working with him immensely," added
Wright.
In addition to his study of the home-less,
the Lafayette -born student is a ac
tive member of the Tuiane Alliana
Against Apartheid and the Africar
American Congress of Tuiane. He's alsc
an adult literacy tutor with CACTUS.
"He's diligent about everything," saic

"What's great about Kraig is that fo

Tran To Cambridge
Physics seems to come naturally to
Huy Quoc Tran, a soft-spoken senior in
the College of Arts and Sciences.
1 hough Tran may not have realized it
when he was young, his fascination with
kites and bows and arrows began pre-paring
him for his course of study.
"I was always interested in the me-chanics
of how things work," he said.
Tran, who came to New Orleans from
Vietnam with his family at the age of
six, said his older brother also majored
in physics, so Tran had a natural model.
Now 21, he is pursuing a self-de-signed
major that combines the study
of classical physics and mechanics,
electromagnetism, quantum mechanics
and density -functional material. In de-signing
his major, he left his senior year
open to take graduate -level courses.
He has worked with physics depart-ment
chairman George Rosensteel to
test theories about equilibrium states of
atomic nuclei by applying mathematical
models from astronomy. For his honors
project, Tran is working with physics
professor John Perdew to build a theo-retical
model of a metal, one atom at a
time.
The self-designed major was the key
to Tran being chosen one of the 106
Goldwater Scholars in 1989. the first
year of national competition. That
award, which pays up to $7,000 of edu-cation
expenses annually for two years,
is based on breadth of accomplishment
in mathematics and the natural sciences.
Tran plans to earn a bachelor's de-gree
with honors in applied mathemat-ics,
then pursue an M.D. and Ph.D. In
doing so, Tran will have a broad foun-dation
in mathematical physics before
studying medical physics, a still -devel-oping
field. Tran is interested in how
physical theories are applied to the di-agnosis
and treatment of human dis-eases.
With the advent of new imaging sys-tems
such as nuclear magnetic reso-nance
and positron emission tono-graphy
scanners, physics has had a
strong influence on medicine. Tran
wrote in his application.
With this background. Tran hopes
one day to divide his time equally
among teaching, research and clinical
practice in a research hospital.
Tran is excited about spending a year
abroad in England. "It gives me a
chance to go to a different country and
see how the study of physics works." he
said.
Cambridge is especially appealing to
Tran because there he will be following
in the footsteps of James Maxwell, a
pioneer in the study of electromagne-tism;
Sir George Gabriel Stokes, whose
work centered on waves and the trans-formations
imposed on them during
their passage through various media;
and George Green, who created
Green's theorem on magnetic and elec-tric
fields.
Aside from the academic challer_
Tran would like to "sightsee. meet\hc
people and travel around Europe," he
said.
When he's not studying. Tran enji -

In any given semester, about half of
all science majors at Tulane will be
women, but at commencement, men
will take home most of the science de-grees.
In an effort to recruit and retain
women science majors, Tulane admin-istrators,
faculty, and students have be-gun
programs to build support and so-cial
networks among women science
majors, bring in prestigious speakers for
seminars and introduce role models to
the women.
"There are problems recruiting wom-en
to the sciences that have to do with
precollegiate education," explains Joan
Bennett, biology professor and faculty
adviser to the student organization
women in Science. "Women aren't en-couraged
to go into science early
enough. We can't do anything about
that. What we can do at Newcomb is to
not lose the people who do come in.
Currently, we lose about half."
Margaret King, coordinator of New-comb
programs, said three approaches
are being tried: a floor in Josephine
Louise residence halls houses only
freshmen women who are science or
engineering majors; students have orga-nized
Women in Science as a network-ing
group; and, with a grant from the
Newcomb Foundation, Bennett is
bringing in successful women scientists
in several disciplines to discuss their re-search
and provide the students with
role models.
Another 12 percent of all Newcomb
students majoring in the Liberal arts and
sciences are science majors. About 41
p in Science
percent, 265, of Tulane engineering stu-dents
are women. Nationally, women
make up about 15.5 percent of engi-neering
majors. Newcomb College
graduated 81 science majors in May
1898, about 18 percent of the class.
Women, however, are concentrated
in a few fields. Psychology and biology
have the highest percentages of women
majors. In psychology, 64 percent of the
76 majors are women; biology, 46 per-cent
of the 112 majors are women.
Physics has 16 majors and chemistry 13,
but each discipline has only three wom-en
majors.
Nationally, student interest in science
majors has declined among both men
and women. According to a UCLA sur-vey
of 300,000 students at 600 colleges
and universities, the percentage of
freshmen planning on majoring in the
sciences fell by half — from 11.5 per-cent
to 5.8 percent — during the last 20
years.
Although women have gained
ground in many professional schools —
about 40 percent of law and medicine
and a third of business students are
women — they have not show similar
increases in the basic sciences. The
UCLA survey, published in the Septem-ber
issue of American Scientist, showed
women's interest in science majors de-clining
from 8.8 percent to 5.1 percent
in the past two decades.
"This is very sad to me," Bennett
said. "Women's interest in the sciences
has decreased. I firmly do not believe
that male and female brains are differ-ently
wired — that science ability all
falls on the Y chromosome. Wome
just need inspiration and the courage t
pursue scientific majors."
Bennett said women majoring in cefl
tain male-dominated fields, such ;
chemistry and physics, feel as if they a
slightly deviant. "Majoring in certa
fields requires a social confidence th
many women just don't have," Benne
said.
