Student Life & Have a seat! A group of freshmen use each other as chairs during an ice breaker. This was one of several games played during Play Fair.

At 7 p.m. on Aug. 21, 48 UP freshmen met at Holy Redeemer School to take part in three days of service. This Freshman Plunge, sponsored by Volun­ teer Services, sent these students into one of three areas to work. One team worked for Franciscan Enterprises by painting, sanding and doing yard work for lower income housing. The other two teams worked in one of two hotels for Central City Concern, an organization that provides housing for people in need of a variety of assistance, including substance abuse and financial difficulties. The students' main duties were also painting and cleaning, but they had a lot of interaction with the tenants, as well as with cockroaches. According to Petria Malone, director of Volunteer Services, "The students seemed to have a good time, and they learned a lot." These students learned about a different way of life, and gained a lot from that experience. —by Erin Krieg

The social life at UP seemed to change as often as the weather. Some­ times lots of stuff was happening, while other times the weekends weren't full of excitement. So what did the students do in the dorms? Most entertained them­ selves in their rooms or with other students. "It is fun to play bowling in the hallways," said junior Tammy Jones. Students would also spend the time playing video games, watching a movie, or just sitting around and talking. These weekends proved to be a great way to catch up on studying or lost sleep, too. Needless to say, these weekends were some ofthe most relaxing.

After a rough day in the choppy water, George and I came back to the campsite where Liz and Kelli were cooking up a masterful feast-McDonalds. With the easily predicted forecast of rain, rain and more rain thrust upon us, we were con fined to our tent for most of the trip. However, we still had a blast, staying up all night talking and playing cards. The rain may have gotten us wet, but it sure didn't put a damper on our weekend. —by Dan Draper

One ofthe unique parts about the Lu'au are the traditional dances performed by students themselves. Most Hawaiian dances are about spiritual ties to the earth, love and are written in the honor of a past ancestor. The Kumulipo, was the first dance performed at the La'au and tells the story of creation. The dancers use their bod) movements to convey the message of balance with the earth. The first part ofthe dance begins with darkness, and then the creation ot the male and female. It then moves on to the birth ofthe light. The second part of the dance is a song written in honor ol Queen Kaahumanu. It tells of going to the moim tains with the flowers, and the gathering of leis.

Why is it that the classic rock of the '60s and 70s is so popular among the youth of today? Is it the rhythm, the lyrics or the hidden meanings to the songs? Or perhaps it is our generation's envy of a time when the youth ol this country seemed to make a difference' with protests against war and campaigns for civil rights. For some it might just be a desire to revert to times when "just say no" wasn't around and the term 4:20 was coined. A time when Quadstock was Woodstock and the summer was made for love. Freshman Amy McCammond felt she had the answer when she said, "The artists of today don't speak to us like the artists of yesterday." Whatever the correct answer is, it is obvious that classic rock is a symbol ol our generation just as it is a symbol of generations past. —by Amanda Richter

For UP seniors, the CPB-sponsored Senior Party capped off their roller-coaster ride through four years of college. Many were relieved to finally have that long sought after degree in their hands. After a wonderful graduation ceremony, these recent gradu­ ates entering an adult world wanted nothing more than to party hardy one last time with all their class­ mates. The party took place from 9 p.m. to 1 a.m. May 4 at the Crown Ballroom in downtown Portland. The theme ofthe party was "Masquerade Ball." People attending the party were given masquerade masks. The festival was separated into two different rooms. In one room, there was a DJ playing the students' favorite music, everthing from '80s hits to the macarena and the electric slide. In the other room, there was a huffet, har and karaoke. Many students got together and sang along with some of today's most popular tunes. "Daryl Stiff sang 'Kiss' by Prince. It was really impressive. Most people thought it was a CD," said senior Sarah Fischer. Sophomore Mike Behunin, one ofthe main orga- ni/ers ofthe event said, "It's basically a release type of deal for the students who have worked so hard all year long. We just tried to make it fun and memorable for everyone." About 450 students attended the event. The tickets were held at the information center and were free to all students, including non-seniors. "I was surprised that underclassmen could attend the Senior Party," said freshman George Agapitos. "It seems like it would be a closed party type of thing, but that's cool that they let everybody come." \s the night came to a close, many 21 and older students found that it probably wasn't a smart idea for them to drive home. The party planning committee anticipated this and provided shinties back to campus. —by Dan Draper

John Shoul Senior Party S9 GRADUATION A TIME TO CELEBRATE

In the days leading to graduation, many activities were planned to allow seniors to create a few more memories and say goodbye to a few more friends. From the Crawl to Senior Party, students could celebrate their great accomplishment with both those who had accompanied them on their journey and those who had only recently become friends. The Crawl took seniors to the variety of bars and taverns that line Lombard. Most students began the Wednesday night Crawl at The Farmer's Barn on the east end of Lombard. Students then traveled down Lombard visiting such bars as The Tiny Bubble Room, The Mouse Trap, Tom's Pizza, Pacifica Grill, Pietro's Pizza, Maria's Mexican Food, The Blue Parrot Saloon, Mock Crest Tavern and Mock Crest Grocery. The Crawl finally ended at the infamous T-Room. Thursday evening the festivities of graduation and the end of school continued with Blowout on the Bluff. Blowout on the Bluff consisted of the traditional barbe­ cue of chicken, corn and watermelon. Blowout also offered glasses of beer for $ 1 for the 21 and over crowd. Entertainment was provided by the Clumsy Lovers, a Celtic rock band. On Friday graduates attended commencement re­ hearsal and picked up their caps and gowns. Students were also reminded to pay their bills in order to receive their diplomas. Most family members arrived on Saturday, just in time to attend the Baccalaureate Mass at 4 p.m. The Most Reverend Francis George, Archbishop of Portland, presided over the mass and gave the homily. Following Baccalaureate, University President Fr. David Tyson, C.S.C, hosted the President's Reception at the Commons. Good food and stiff drinks were provided for graduating seniors and their guests. Most graduates and their families began Sunday with a special brunch at the Commons. The day continued the with the most antipated event ofthe weekend, Com­ mencement. After invocation by Fr. Ed Obermiller, C.S.C, the ceremony opened with the presentation ofthe University's highest honor, the Christus Magister Medal to the Honorable John T.

After their run to the Final Four in 199 5-96, the UP men's soccer team had high expectations placed on them at the beginning oi the 1996-97 season. Early on, the men were ranked as high as fourth in the nation. However, early losses look them out ofthe rankings. In their second match ofthe season, they lost to Clemson. They fell to UW one week later. A disastrous road trip in Seattle saw the Pilots drop back-to-back games to Rutgers and UCLA. In one month the fourth-ranked team wasn't in the top 2 5 and had a season record of 3- 5. "I don't think you can put a finger on everything. The unluckiness, or what­ ever you want to call it, has accumulated from so many different things," said junior Daniel Falcone. Senior keir Cochran said, "It's some­ thing you don't wish for.

John Shoul Men's Soccer VJ9 WOMEN shining through SOCCER Throughout the 1996-97 season the UP women's soccer team, led by WCC Player of the Year junior Justi Baumgardt, was on a mission to get back to the NCAA Championship game. The Pilots had many deadly scoring threats, but it was their strong defense that anchored the team. For a stretch of 1 6 games, the women recorded 1 2 shutouts and allowed only five goals. "We had a tough defense," said sophomore Kristen Eaton. "If we got scored on, we took it personally." The team had a slight scare in the first round of the playoffs against a scrappy University of Washington team. UP fans were relieved when freshman Regina I lolan scored on a diving header off a brilliant cross by senior Nicole Pfeifer. "There was no doubt in my mind that we were going to score," said Pfeifer. "We just had to be patient and wait for it to c nine." The win propelled the Pilots through the playoffs and all the way back to the final four. Holan once again worked her magic in the semifinals, scoring two goals in the first half. However, in the second half, the UP defense that had been so solid surrendered four goals and the women had to once again go home without the trophy. Although it was disappointing to lose in the semifinal game, it was still a gratifying experience. "The season as a whole was the most wonderful experience I've had in soc­ cer." said Holan. "1 couldn't have picked a better program to play for." —by Dan Draper

Head Coach Jim Sollars won his second consecutive WCC Coach ofthe Year award, leading the Pilots to a perfect 14-0 WCC record. This marked the first time in history that a team had gone undefeated in WCC play. The Pilots' .962 winning percentage was the best in program history and ranked third nationally. The Pilots seemed to he a lock to win tin WCC title going into the conference tournament.

The women's tennis team proved that hard work does pay off. Coach Susie Campbell-Gross produced another winning season and, more importantly, set the basis for the team to improve in the next few years. Despite being hit by injuries, which caused freshmen Wendy Dixon and Cara Miller to sit out most of the season, the team showed character and strength to pull out some great accomplishments. The highlight came when the women went to California and claimed for the first time the Titan Classic title at Cal State Fullerton. "The best was winning the Titan Classic," said sophomore Stacey Stewart. "It was simply awesome." At the conference tournament they were able to easily match their fifth seed with victories over San Francisco and Santa Clara. The story ofthe men's tennis team was one of slight disappointment, although through no fault of their own. At the start of the year everything looked right. The Pilots had the most evenly balanced team in the conference. Freshman Cam Genter said, "Our number one could lose to anyone in our line up and vice versa." However, the team could simply never come together at the right time. "A lot of difficulties came from switching from indoors to outdoors," I lie ('ho said senior Sam Plintovic. "Some players would adjust on some days and others would adjust on other days." Despite these disadvantages, the team seemed to have it all under control going into the conference tournament. The w eekend prior to the tournament, they went to Cal Poly and won the tough Consolation Tournament.

In several instances, I can remember parents pulling their children away from me, without evei1 knowing why I was ill. Respite this, I heivegrown up to believe that (very person in our society is equal and no matter how or why people are different, the diversity in oursociety is thefoundation upon which ournation was created.

COLOPHON The Theme for the 1997 Log, "Anchored in Time," was chosen by The Log staff during the summer months of 1996 to forever capture the moments we spent on The Bluff. The nautical cover design attempts to reflect the relationship between the Willamette River and the River Pilots originally located here. The cover was designed by Sandy Wu and Pam Harris of Jostens using ideas from Sarah Fischer and Carrie MacGibbon. The cover is a silkscreened and embossed craftline cover with 1257 Spanish grain, background color 492 Forest Green with black font and 380 gold foil. The endsheets were printed in black on 285 beige PMS 468 with a different design front and back. This 152-page book was printed on 9"xl 2" #80 glossy paper. About 1,500 copies of this book were printed by Josten's. Volume 63 ofthe University of Portland yearbook, The Log, was printed by Jostens Publishers in Visalia, Calif. Carol Cooper and Jeri McDaniels were our patient account executives at the Visalia Plant. Kay Soliday, assisted by Dena Napoli served as our local Jostens representatives in the Port­ land region. Page layouts were designed on size 9 templates by Layout Editor Mark MacGibbon and Assistant Layout Editor Mary Mattecheck. Yeartech 5.0, Word 6.0 and Adobe Illustrator 6.0 for the Macintosh were all used on layouts created in this book. The basic typestyle used throughout the book was 12 pt. Joanna MT. Captions were set in 11 pt. Joanna MT and their kickers were set in 11 pt. Joanna MT Italic along with photo credits. Folio art was scanned from a school document. Other fonts used in the book were Copperplate 33BC, Bellevue and Gillsands Condensed in the Opening, Clos­ ing and Organizations sections, Castellar in the Student Life and Sports sections, and Biffo MT and Brush Script in the Academic section. Page copy was created by Copy Writer Dan Draper and Assistant Copy Writer Amanda Richter. Captions were a group effort from the entire staff. Copy submitted by our numerous volunteers was greatly apprecitated. Many thanks to The Beacon staff for letting us use copy that originally ap­ peared in their newspaper. Susan Tomaro provided advice and helped to keep us on budget. Dane Hobbs, Systems Manager, installed all programs and fixed any problems we encountered along the way The Log/Beacon Staff Photographers contributed, took and developed most ofthe pictures in this book. The Photo Team consisted of Coordinator John Shoul, and original team members Jeremy Sidell, Ryan Seto and Eddie Schweitzer. Second semester Eddie was replaced by Drew Backeberg. Steve Walker provided us with most of the sports team photos as well as statistics for the sports section. Jack Phelps of Columbia Photographic Studio took senior portraits. A great thanks to students who submitted personal photos for use in the book. This allowed us to accomplish a greater amount of diversity in the book. Color pictures were developed and enlarged professionally at Flashback Premium Photo Labs. The 1996-97 Log staff would like to thank the following for their assistance and guidance: • Kay Soliday, our Jostens representative, for aswering all of our questions and keeping us on track with deadlines. Even when we spent a lot of time playing phone tag, the answers were much appreciated. Thank you for the trip to California. • Dena Napoli, our other Jostens representative. Thank you for your computer expertise and for answering every little question we had about "how to do this?" and "why does it do that?" You are truly a fountain of computer knowledge. • Susan Tomaro, our advisor, for keeping us on budget, on track and sane. It is nice to know that it will work out eventually. • Dane Hobbs, Systems Manager, for installing programs and keeping them running, for helping out with the senate proposal and especially for reminding the Editor to say "hello" even in a mo­ ment of crisis. • Steve Walker, for his punctuality with sports team shots and statistics.

From the Editor-in-Chief to the rest of the staff: Thank you for all of your support both on the book and in my life. I hope I have helped you learn and grow. You are truly wonderful people.
