Bananarama Going Ape Over The Republic n my last trip down to the South Street Seaport, I visited Banana Republic, a Ostore devoted to travel and safari clothing for men and women. I entered the store by pull- ing on a simulated animal tusk that acts as a door handle. Artificial Palm trees along with simulated rock formations give the impression of a jungle.
Robert Cappucci
I walk to the back of the store and try on a safari jacket in a cave-like dressing room and, on the walls, I notice artificial animal skins hanging. Background sounds of recorded wild animals add to the effect. For the most part, the clothing at Banana Republic consists of high quality shirts, pants, sweaters and jackets that have a classic, non- trendy style to them. The fabrics generally used are 100 percent cottons, natural leathers and pure wools. In addition, the Banana Republic com- pany is constantly introducing "intelligent" fabrics from around the world. One of these fabrics, supplied by a Scottish sailmaking com- pany, uses fine long-fiber cotton with an oil-and- wax finish. This fabric is used exclusively for a Banana Republic raincoat, thus making the coat both waterproof and breathable. The colors of each garment are usually restricted to earth tones such as khaki, olive and brown, and, because of the fabric content, many of the items can be worn all yeflr round. For example, many of the hats are modeled after dollars in 1922. Banana Republic's replica goes opened in Mill Valley, California in 1974.

Book bills for five semesters
Lunch money for a year and a half
Approximately 20 percent of your boarding fees
Commuting costs for a year
All of the above items cost approximately $822, (he same amount tuition was raised last year for undergraduate students. Students, however, not only have to incur the above education-related costs, but also have to come up with the additional funds to cover the increased cost of tuition. The Budget Planning Committee, a group responsible for assisting in the planning of the University's revenues and expenditures, met last week to discuss next year's budget, and one of the principal considerations of the committee will be how much to raise tuition. Nearly 70 percent of the University's total revenue is generated by tuition fees. Naturally, tuition fees must increase with time, but in the past several years, this increase has been phenomenal. Since the class of 1988 entered Fordham, tuition has increased 39.5 percent. In the fall of 1984, tuition was $5500 per year, and now it is $7672. The largest increase came last year as tuition rose 12 percent. Eight hundred and twenty two dollars may not seem like that much money, but to a student working to put himself through college, an additional $822 could be nearly impossible. "We certainly can not raise tuition as much as we did last year," said University President Joseph O'Hare, S.J., at the Budget Planning Committee meeting last week. This insinuates that tuition costs will in fact increase somewhat, but why must tuition costs rise at all? Is it necessary for tuition to increase every year? In comparison to other schools in the New York area, Fordham's tuition is lower than Columbia and New York Univeristy, but higher that Manhattan, Hofstra, Pace, Iona, and St. John's. One possible reason for the rise in tuition costs is that fail enrollment figures are on a downward trend. Since 1983, the total number of undergraduate students at Fordham has declined 9 percent. Thus, perhaps prospective students are turned away by Fordham's tuition and select less expensive schools like Manhattan, Iona or St. John's. We realize that the school has many expenses like new dorms, expansion projects, increased faculty salaries, special events like the sesquiccntennial celebration, ect., but the tuition can not rise at the rate it has been over the past four years (approximately 10 percent). If it continues to escalate at this pace, then in five years it will soar to $12,350 excluding room and board. In addition, tuition increases will also lead to a decline in funds donated by families of current students. Last year approximately 950 families of students gave donations. If the tuition continues to rise, however, families will have less disposable income and will be hesitant to give any extra momey to the school At the meeting last week Fr. O'Hare expressed the need for a capital campaign. He also expressed the need for providing additional financial aid to students. This is definitely a step in the right direction, yet at the same time tuition increse must be minimized. As the Planning Committee prepares their recommendations, we urge them lo please bear in mind the consequences that are al stake here. If the situation persists, students are going lo turn away form Fordham not because they don't wan! to go, but because they can't afford to go.

On the Sidelines Rams Reflect on Season or senior soccer player, Erik Wadehn, his career as a player at Fordham is Fbasically over. With the Rams finishing their season with a Fecord of 11 wins, six losses and three ties, they fell short of their pre-season goals of obtaining a top 20 Joe Cuozzo national ranking and a berth in the NCAA tournament. The co-captain and one time team MVP took some time to reflect on this season and his career at Fordham. "I've enjoyed it. I had a lol of good limes here," he remarked. The two N.Y. State teams to make the NCAA tournament were Hartwick and Adelphi, and the games Fordham played against them symbolize their season. Fordham came into the Hartwick game riding a wave of victories. Their ability and (he confidence provided for a 1-0 viclory. On the opposite end, the Adelphi game occured during a losing streak when the team was struggling both physically and mentally. Consequently, they lost 1-0 in a poorly played contest. Though these games present the kind of rollercoaster season Fordham had, Wadehn felt two other games played key points. "Columbia was a key point in our season and so was St. John's, You can't afford to lose games in N.Y. State. It's better to lose out of state. A team can survive with two, possibly three losses, but you have no shot after that," he said. Fordham was in the midst of a losing i*H»r SL streak before the St. John's game. Also, breaking the team out of its slump and the "It is the biggest difference. Mr. Schnur both the MAAC and Tri-Stale conferences.

November 8, 1986, saw the Fordham Rams struggle to tie Pace, 12-12, on :i dreary, rain- soaked day. This year, a surging Rams team blasted its way to a 45-26 win over the Setters on a breezy, sunny afterenoon. The Rams im- proved to 8-,l, their most wins since 1977, while Pace suffered its 5th defeat in eight contests. With the victory, the Rams clinched their first-ever Liberty Conference title, and moved up to 17 in the National Division III rankings. Last November, Fordham was held scoreless in the 4th quarter against Pace. The 1987 Rams

Directing the effort was QB Dave Olsakowski, who enjoyed his second straight fine outing while subbing for the injured Bob Hagan. The freshman connected on 13 of 19 passes, good for 200 yards. His favorite target was Eddie Pear- " son, catching eight of those passes for 95 yards. The flashy Pearson evoked images of Notre Dame flanker Tim Brown, as he gained 291 all- purpose yards, included was an 88-yard John Rousscy/THE RAM touchdown return of a 4th quarter kickoff that sealed the win. The Rams defense directly accounted for 12 points on two interception returns for TDs. Five passes were picked off - two apiece by Ralph Rios and Jerry Kehm, and Pace QB Kevin Enterlein was sacked four times. Two sacks belonged to no.98, DT Marty Mazzara. The co- captain played up to form despite arthroscopic knee surgery six days earlier. "It's a tribute to Marty's physical condition- ing and (team) Dr. Zambetti that he was able to play," praised Glueck. "It had to be one of the most inspiring performances I've seen."
