The Economics of the citibank Classic Visa card. How Student Discounts and Price Protection contribute to upward growth. A variety of factors have been suggested as contributing to the economic growth of students, including (1) more lottery winners

between the ages of 18 and 22, (2) a 37% increase on earnings from bottle and can returns, (3) more

students doubling earnings in the lightning round of game shows, and (4) the Citibank Classic Visa®

card. It’s this last one, however, that affects most students. 51 The Citibank Classic Visa card offers

immediate savings to student cardmembers. You can save up to 26% on long distance calls versus AT&T

with the free Citibank Calling Service from MCI.1 And you can capitalize on a $20 Airfare Discount

"Kristin and Doryan are currently the all-time leaders in singles wins with 51 each", reported LaBranche. It should be interesting to see who captures the final PC Athletes of the Week crown this spring. Another pleasant surprise this season was junior Karen Taylor, who worked her way up to playing singles and now has won 7 straight. On the men's side, the Friars squeaked into the ECAC Championships with the 16th and final seed. The Friars dropped their opening match to nationally ranked Harvard, and then dropped their second rounder to Boston University 4-3. Steve Sullivan and John Weber paced the Friars in singles, while PC swept the Terriers in doubles. Coach LaBranche noted: "This showed how far we've come along though considering BU shut us out last season." In their final match, the Friars pounced Navy 5-2 in a solid team effort. PC's first -ever win over the Middies resulted in a 13th place tie. "I was happy with our performance, especially considering we came close to the top 10 with the BU match," observed LaBranche. Coach LaBranche then rested the regulars and watched his freshmen and sophomores romp over Bowdoin on Saturday 7-0. "It was a great way to end the season by letting some of the younger guys have a chance. The freshmen have their friends come down and cheer them on, creating a great environment for our home matches", summed up Coach LaBranche. The Friars and Lady Friars don't have anymore scheduled home matches remaining, but are awaiting invitations for the November Rolex Championships. Coach LaBranche would like to Aileen Koprowski '95 (Levittown, NY) Steve Warjanka '95 (Maplewood, NJ) thank everyone who came out and showed their support at the Women's Volleyball Men's Soccer home matches this fall. Koprowski was instrumental in leading Warjanka scored two goals in the Lady Friars to victory over Boston Providence's 3-2 loss to Connecticut last College in a Big East match. Thejunior had week.
