Julia Roberts' "Erin Brockovich" dominated fhe box office last weekend, raking in an impressive $18.5 million in its second week of release. Roberts' movie-star appeal and Universal's marketing blitz guaranteed "Brockovich's" success. "Romeo Must Die," Warner Bros.' attempt at recreating "The Matrix's" box-office numbers, did moderately well in attracting martial-arts fans. "Mission to Mars," Touchstone's high-budget sci-fi extravaganza, brought substantially less box-office receipts in its third weekend of release. Negative word-of-mouth and misleading previews contributed to the film's decline in attendance. Multiple Oscar-nominees "American Beauty" and "The Cider House Rules" benefitted from their inclusion in the Academy Award's Best Picture race, bringing in $4.1 million and $2.8 million, respectively.

EVERY TEAM MUSTHAVE A BEPBEIEIVTAHVE Attention Students, Faculty and Staff At its meeting on Thursday, March 23, 2000, the University Committee on Computing and Information Services (UCCIS) met and discussed the impact that a program named "Napster" is having on University computing resources. As many of you are aware, "Napster" is a computer program that acts as an intermediary between computer users who wish to find and trade music files. Use of the program has raised serious concerns about network system security, security of personal computers systems, computer resource (bandwidth) management, intellectual property and copyright violations at college campuses across the country, causing nearly two hundred universities to prohibit use of the "Napster" program on their systems. The UCCIS is concerned about these issues as well as the resultant cost to students, faculty and staff. Because conservative estimates suggest that between 25-40% of ResNet traffic is "Napster" use, the UCCIS has recommended that the Office of Information Technology immediately implement a moratorium on "Napster" and similar programs. Accordingly, and consistent with the policy. on Responsible Use of Information Technologies at Notre Dame, we have directed OIT to immediately implement measures to prevent usage of this type of software. The UCCIS believes that the moratorium is necessary so that core University academic and administrative computing needs can be met and so that an actual determination can be made of the impact of the use of "N apster" on campus. The UCCIS anticipates that the moratorium on the use of such programs could become permanent at a later date. Please know of our appreciation for your understanding and recognition of the need to appropriately provide for and protect the University's academic and administrative computing needs.
