Why does he College of Business and Administration really is. The new tournament format, for example, is based on the tournaments of major conferences like the Big East and Atlantic 10, which play their entire tournaments at Madison Square Garden and the Spectrum, respectively. The difference between those tournaments and America East’s, however, is that casual basketball fans with no specific team allegiances will go to a major conference tournament. The only fans who go to America East games are the hardcore fans of its member schools. The selection last year of a new name for the conference was another failure. “America East” has an awkward, broken English feel to it. It doesn’t sound like the name of a collegiate jEsos LApy/ athletic conference, nor does if lend itself to an easy to remember abbreviation. To make matters worse, the confer­ 'PON-r D0lH«r IN TH/BUCT % ^isGusTiNer ence further embarrassed itself by requesting that the name 't NUDE NYM be printed in all caps every time it appears in print. The old name, North Atlantic Conference, was no longer an accurate geographic description of the conference — teams like Drexel, Delaware and Towson State aren’t even close to New England. Supposedly, the main reason they chose “America East,” is that it falls first in an alphabetical listing of conferences, placing them on the first page of col­ lege basketball guides and at the top of newspaper listings. . Printing the conference name in all capital letters and appearing first in alphabetical lists of conferences aren’t going to change anyone’s perception of the league. If that were true, America East wouldn’t be stuck playing its cham­ pionship game while Drexel and Boston University basket­ ball fans are driving home from work.

THE MOST FUN YOU CAN HAVE AT DREXEL WITHOUT STUFFIN6 A FISH DOWN HOUR PANTS.

The most am azing aspect of the newspaper you hold in your hands is not the insightful new s coverage, witty com m entary or entertaining prose. The m ost am azing aspect is how easy it is t o j o in its staff.

Just tell us w hat you w ant to do. It's th a t easy.

You can dig up the dirt as a newswriter, attract hot m em bers of the opposite sex by writing cool colum ns for Ed-Op, becom e an artist's worst nightm are (and m eet rich, fam ous people) as an Entertainm ent writer, or write about Drexel's premiere sports team s. You write only w hat you w a n t t o w r ite .

The Triangle is a business too. The paper receives no University funding. We operate on a budget funded solely by advertising revenue — over $100,000 of it a year. We need a well-oiled busi­ ness and advertising m achine to keep running, and to pay off all the h itm e n w e employ.

We also need experienced graphic designers w ho w ant to expand their portfolios — either as m em bers of our crack layout staff or our award- winning advertising design team .

Photographers can join our world-renowned photo staff. We shoot, develop and digitize all our own pictures at our high-tech lab in the depths of T riangle HQ.

And despite all of these am azing things, we're still just a bunch of norm al people. Like you, m ost of us even enjoy the feeling of w et flippers in our pants.
