association with many of the ad-ministrators with whom shewould deal as UAP. She believesthat this will greatly enhance herability to act as the "overseer"and "coordinator" of the Nom-Comm, ASA and the General As-sembly, which she perceives as theessential role of the UAP.

One of Rorabaugh's primaryobjectives will be to increase thevisibility of the UA, and theGeneral Assembly in particular,which she hopes will reverse theincreasing political apathy amongstudents. She cited increasedmedia coverages of UJA activitiesand the formation of a UJA socialCommittee as two ways to effectthis reversal.

In' additon to formulating someof her plans, Rorabaugh es-tablished her position onl some is-

sues currently demandirng-atten-tion of the UA. Rorabaugh wasopposed to forced commons forfreshmen claling the plan "'expen-sive for students" and an infringe-ment on student 'liberties.Rorabaugh expressed an interestin challenging living group isola-tion and in improving livinggroup cooperation.

HakalasMarkhamAccofding to Jon Hakala -`815

the three most pressing issues fac-ing MIT undergraduates todayare the cost of student living, thesocial atmosphere at MIT, andacademic freedoms

"MIT offers the worst un-dergraduate financial aid packageanywhere" iaid Hakala, and hehas worked with the financial aidoffice to get the student equi tylevel reduced. Chuck Markham'81, his running mate, has alsobeen working on plans to cut stu-dent living expenses by urgingM IT fraternities to buy itemssuch as fuel oil and maintenancehardware cooperatively.

On the subject of the UAGeneral Assembly, Hakala sayshe would "give the US substan-tAal decisions toSmake" and wouldbring in "pizza and Coca Coia"to increase attendance at themeetings. When queried abouthow he would prepare for an im-portant social or academic issuebefore the faculty meeting,Hakala related he would talk ex-tensively to faculty chairmen and

increase social interactionsbetween freshmen and anybody"

Forman/Hammond

"There is no real campus socialfocal point'* said Steven Forman'80. He and his running mate Ger-ry Hammond '80 would gear theirterns in office around improvingthe social life on campus.

then bring the issue for discussionto the GA. And when asked howhe would exercise his right asUAP to talk-at a faculty meeting,Hakala replied he would stressnegotiation with faculty membersand "only if all else fails".

By Elaine Douglass, AaronRapoport, and Bob Wasserman

Rorabaugh/MclanusAt the start, Mary Rorabaugh

'80 has served on a wide range ofstudent government and socialcommittees. , These include -theStudent Center Committee, TheLecture Series Committee, theAssociation of StudentAcitivities, FinSoard and the UAGeneral Assembly.

Rorabaugh said that her exten-sive experience in student govern-ment has brought her into close

the Student .Center. Hakala sayshe has been trying to improve thestudent environment by sendingwomen letters encouraging themto come to MIT. Markham sug-gested a system whereby studentscould exchange living groups fortwo weeks as a way of helping thestudent environment.

Mary Rorabaugh'80/Tim Me-Manus '80: They emphasize theneed for stronger communica-tions. They would strengthencommunications by working onthe social life of students. Mc-Manus would like to organize aHomecoming for next fall.

Johnl Bisognano '81/RaymondMerz '80: Bisognano says he wantto be "a UAP who listens to thepeople." He is not happy withwhat he sees as a "feeling of dis-tance between the UA office andactual students." He plans to getstudent input by going to the stu-dents in their rooms and talkingto them.

Student govt. changesBisognano: He would like to

hold GA meetings aroundcampus in dormitories and frater-

nities.Rorabaugh: She says there

should be more effort to get peo-ple to come to GA activities. Shedoes not like the system Of theNominations Committee electingitself. She suggested having thestudent body make NoniCommappointments.

Hakala: tie generally agreeswith the current student govern-ment structure.

F ormaln: He would like to haveone General Assembly represen-tative from each living group witha vote proportional to the size ofthe living group.

Compulsory commonsHakala: He is "absolutely

against forced commons forfreshmen." He says commonscosts too much and the food isnot that good.

Steve Forman '80JerryHammond '80: They say they areconcerned about the "enormousamount of fragmentation" theysee on campus. To attack thisproblem, they would increasecampus communications byorganizing several large campus-wide events such as a Homecom-ing in the fall and a picnic duringKaleidoscope. Forman said hewould like to see some kind ofwinter festival, which might beheld in cooperation with anotherschool like Wellesley. They owuldalso like to increase alumni-student interaction in order tobuild student pride in MIT.

By Tom CurtisThe Humanities Department

will offer a new major program inhumanites and engineering orscience beginning next semester.The program will be a more in-tegrated version of the currentCourse XXIA and XXIB-I ma-jors.

The program will be offeredwith the special assistance offaculty from the program inScience, Technlology, and Society.The STS staff will share in thesupervision of the program andteach some of the core courses.

Students in the new program -known as Course XXIA, Option2, and Course XXIB-1, Option 2

will be required to take twonine-unit reading seminars whichwill serve as an interdisciplinaryfocus for the entire program. Stu-dents will also be required towrite a thesis.

In addition, students will be re-quired to take one course each inthe history of science andtechnology and the culturaldinmensions of science andtechnology. The bulk of theprogram will be ten restrictedelectives, with at least four in thehunlaiities and at least four inscience, engineering, or psy-chology.

The new program has been ap-proved by the Committee on Cur-riculum7. It had formerly beenrferr'ed to as Course XXIC.

lhis program was conceived in1974 by Professors Travis Merrittand Larry Bucciarelli, whowanted to strengthen the currentXXIA and XX 1 B-1 progranms.According to Merritt, the newpro)gratl is designed to be "a firmjoint mjllor which is intentionallyintegrated.- He says the readingsetminars and the courses in thehistory and cultural dimensionsol'science and technology are in-tended lto be a1 bridge between the11umanities and technology forstudents in the program.

The present course XXIA andXX IB-2) major programs will beretraiiled. The only change in theseprogramls, will be the replacementza1 the h umalnities seminar by one

more elective hunianites wourse.

The present full humanities ma-jor, Course XXIB-2. will not be;allected by the new program.Merritt says "there is absolutelyno truth to the notion that thislthe: new progral] is the new wayto approach humaunities atMIT ... Humalnities have to existin their own right."

Editor's note: Ron Newman wats a news writer for thursday .from

January 1977 to May 1978.The MIT community lost an institution last week when the

Undergraduate Association Finance Board (FinBoard) announced the

official liquidation and foreclosure of The Tech's principal competitor,

Thursday :VooDoo.The official reason given was financial; Thursday VooDoo owed over

$7,000 to MIT and seemed unable to pay any of it back. But, as an ear-

ly edition of thursday commented after the similar foreclosure of an

even earlier edition of MIT1's humor magazine VooDoo, "'it should be

kept in mind that if the magazine was to go ouit of business, the In-

stitute, through F~inBoard, would be responsible for its debts anyway.

What was really in question was whether or not FinBoard wanted

VooDoo to continue."From the freshman's viewpoint, very little seems to have been lost.

Since the '*merger" of thursday with a rev~ived VooDoo last September

(a merger ill name only, since the two publications had nearly inden-

tical staff and facilities), little of listing interest has appeared in the'

pages of the "combined" publication. Especially in its last few weeks, it

has consisted laregely of (1) exhortations to the student body to coin-

sume mind-altering drugs, and (2) borinig, overlong descriptions of

events in and around Bexley Hall. The two topics have not always been

clearly distinguishable.But a newspaper does not fall from grace at once, and thursday has

not always been at its present low level of quality. Indeed, when thurs-

day was founded in April of 1969, it prided itself on having brought

G"professional journalism" to MIT. thursday, according to its first,

editor, Jim Smith, was to be a paper whose journalists avoided ",enl-

tangling" involvements with the administration or with student govern-

ment, a paper whose "editors should decide to be politicians oar jour-

nalists, but not to be both simuiltaneously."' In the turbulent political

climate of 1969-70, it proved impossible to maintain such standards of

disinterest, but thursday continued for almost rive years to present well-

writtenl, opinionated coverage of topics ranging from Cambridge rent

control to Earth D~ay, from the Vietnam War to student government

elections, from the Superior Court trials of M IT students to the designs'

many Cambridgeport residents feared MIT had on their neighborhood.

But just as Watergate turned national politics from a participatory

activity to a spectator sport, so too did local political activism begin to

wane within Cambridge and MIT by the 1973-74 school year. Some of

the paper's favorite topics, such as political trials and large antiwar

demonstrations, simply stopped occuring. The arts section of thursday,

once nonexistant, soon began to grow larger than the news section.

By the time I arrived as a freshman in September of 1975, both thurs-

day and the Social Action Coordinating Committee -the campus's

only remaining political organization and the source of most of the

politically active Thursday writers -were deeply divided.

SACC meetings often degenerated into arguments between

Trotskyites, neoLenlinists. and members of other factions, and the

SACC members at thursday steadily lost ground to a new breed of stu-

dent whose primary interests seeemed to lie in running for UAP, seeing

one's name-in print, and offending as many other people as possible.

The weekly meetings of the thursday "'collective" had themselves

degenerated into back biting and insult sessions, presided over by a few

very insecure male egos. Anly attempt to invoke thursday tradition, the

example of other publications, or political criteria in support of one's

position was met with derision. It was no wonder that some of the bit-

terness of the paper's staff, no longer channeled into effective political

action, was soon turned against the student body itself in columns writh

inspiring titles like "Irregardless," "'Venom," and "'What is This

Shit?":All right you turkeys. This is it. I've been restraining myself

all i-erm. but the timne for illusions is overt I have never met a

bunch of losers like you-people. I've tried everything to enrage

you. entice you, excite you, infonn you. Buat it's a hopeless

cause . .. You're all D)EA D and it's all your fault . . . .

I've been told that a segment of people think that this paper is

going downhill. Well, we are just a reflection of you. You are

boring, so the newspaper is boring.... 1 co3uld keep spouting off

at you for pages and pages, but as I said that wouldn't changeyhou....

Jonathan Mark Horn.''Zrregardless, " D:ec. 6, 1976

It wasn't an atmosphere well suited to good writing, friendship, or .

constructive criticism. Ovrer the remasining two years of its life, thursdays

would still print provocative and intelligent political commentary from

time to time, but as each term passed, the political writers graduated

and were not replaced, and those responsible for the likes of 'What IsThis Shit'?" tightened their hold on the paper. The staff of Thursdayz

never seemed to understand why they were receiving less and less

respect on campus; why new people would not join the paper; why an

increasing number of formter staffers vowed to have nothing further to

do with thursday; or, in the end, why they were publishing at all.

The tragedy of thursday is that instead of responding sincerely to the

wishes of its readership, it barricaded itself against that readership and

evolved into irrelevancy.

"We are at a turning pont inAmerican society and it is notguaranteed that we will win." Buthe hopes that succzessfull Kennedycandidacy will be the first steptowards his utopia: a systemwhere "all economic decisionswill be made democratically."

Although Kennedy has been say-ing he's not going to run, no oneis convinced, least of all theliberals who might be iniclined tochallenge Carter. N9o one wants toenter the, race while a possibleKennedy candidacy looms overthem. On th other hand, if Ken-nedy does not run, any other chal-lenlger from the, left will have to.spend a lot of time building anational image and campaignnetwork.

away, the political left is gearingup its full-scale effort to "'DumpCarter" in 1980.

""What?" the conservatives willcry. Dump the man who cancelledthe B- 1, gave up the PanamaCanla .and. contlinues -to -mist abalanced budget? There are thosewho think that Carter is tooliberal, and they certainly won'tbe trying to find someone to theleft of the President.

But the man the leftists want toget rid of is the one who plans toincrease defensee spending at theexpense of social services; theCarter who reneged on a cam-paign promise to establishnational health insurance. Mostof all, they have targetted thesame Carter that many consr-vatives are after -the one who isincapable of controliffing runawayinflation and high -umernploy-ment.

The evangelist of the left isMichael Harrington, author ofThe Other America and TheTwwilight of Capitalism. Har-rington - not to be confulsedwith former U.S. Rep. MichaelHarrington (D-Mass. - is cur-rently a professor of politicascience at CUNY, Queens. Har-rington is a socialist. The grouphe chairs is called, appropriatelyenough, the Democratic SodialistOrganizing Committee.

Democratic is the key word.Harrinxgton and his compatriots(among them Gloria Steinem andRep. Ronald Dellums (D-Calif.)),want to **bring a socialist perspec-tive and vision" to the left wing ofmainstream politics. Unlikeprevious American socialists,DSOC is oriented towards coali-tion politics.

The hopes of the leftists for1980 can be summed-up in oneword: Kennedy. If Harrington isthe left's evangelist, Kennedy istheir reluctant Messiah -worshipped not so much for hisbeliefs as for his vote-gettinlgability. In Harrington's words, Michael Harrington {Photo, by Joel West)

TUESDAY. APRIL 10. 1,979

John D. Bisognarno/Raymond MerzWe represent an incredibly refr ing and new approach to student government - one,

that will re-vitalize school spirit while minimizing the "greasiness" that always seems tosaturate campus office.

A primary concern of ours is student input on UA and campus policies. For this reason,we cite communications as our primary Interest. We propose a down-to-earth sinceremethod of communication which includes the UAP and UAWP's presence at many frater-nity, dormnitory, and club meetings. This close communication is the only way to effect agood student organization. General Assembly meetings should be held around thecampus on a rotating basis and the UAP and UAVP should make a habit of touring livinggroups just to- keep closely in touch with the student body's views and needs.

We are very aware of the problems facing MIT students. if given the chance, we willkeep a very close eye on campus academic, financial, and;social-matters.-This would in-·

-nclude iactive iA, participation in all institute committees and:fteqtient infor-mational.-{Please see the continuation on- the next page)

Steve Forman/Jerry HammondIn the past the UA has suffered from a lack of student recognition and respect. What

has the UA really done for students?This year many of the UAP's and UAVP's efforts were detoured from visible student

programs to the DSA reorganization and the presidential search. Despite this the UA hasbeen valuable in dealine with the administration and in helping other organizations, in-cluding the Freshman class, to get off the ground. We will continue these worthwhile ac-tivities, but more remains to be done.

We will organize and sponsor large, campus-wide acitivities including a HomecomingDinner-Dance, Kaleidoscope Picnic/Cookouti, and a Winter Weekend.

We want to increase alumni/student interaction by expanding the Careers Symposia toall classes. We will also start Survival Seminars where alumni bankers, insurance agents,lawyers, etc. will give the low-down on writing a will, what to look for in a lease, how toobtain credit, and other'necessary facts which are generally ignored in the educational

Tuition has soared much faster than inflation during the last ten years. Yet MIT earnsless income from its investments than you earn from your savings account. With effectivemanagement, MIT would earn an astounding $3,000 per student in additional investmentincome every years The Undergraduate Association President (as a Corporation Joint Ad-visory Committee member) should ask that MIT funds be managed effectively.

Both Vice President Simonides and Student Financial Aid Director Frailey creditJonathan as influential in the Academic Council's decision to roll back the proposedequity level from $2700 to $2,650, saving students $116,000.

There is a lack of school spiritamong MIT undergraduates. Iwould like to overcome this situa-tion by helping to organize ac-tivities which would bring stu-dents together in a non-academicsetting.

Richard SalzCollege should provide more

than a textbook education and aclass ring. it should offer you thechance to meet a wide variety ofpeople, make nlew friendships,and try new things. Unfortunate-ly, it's all too easy to-lose sight ofthis when one is snowed underbooks and problem sets.

If elected, I would work withthe other officers to improve thisequally-important aspect of MIT,to make it a truly friendlier place,one where people come for 'theschool itself, and not just for theeducation.

if you have any questions orwant to talk at any time pleasegive me a call.

B-ruce KierneanClass officers represent the

class to the administration. it isimportant that this be done reac-tively - responding to concernedparties approachin'g him-but itis more effective when done ac-tively - determining class senti-ment behind an issue and takingaction to. pursue this. This as-sumes that an officer has at least arough sense of the class' will. Ob-viously, effective representationrequires communication withyour constituency. My experiencewith MIT and its students - par-ticularly class off'82 students -indicates- my ability to com-municate.

The strongest asset, however,that a candidate can offer is asense of commitment. An officermust be willing to spend the timenecessary to fulfill his duties tothe office and to the class. An of-ficer must make his office one ofhis priorities. My record of extra-curricular activities shows thiscommitment.

Hi! I am running for ExecutiveCommittee of the Class of '82.

Our sophomore year will be animportant one as we will continueto make new friends among themembers of our class. Well-organized acitivties sponsored byconcerned and responsible Classofficers will serve to unite us intoa group instead of allowing us tobecome a fragmented collectionof individuals.

That's why I am running forclass office. I'd like to have a partin developing our potentials and Iam willing to devote a lot of timeand energy to achieving this goal.So please vote Anita Sircar forExecComm. I'd appreciate yoursupport!

Richard TelloWhy should you vote for me'?

Jeff FriedI am attracted to the position of

Sec/Treas on two levels. Per-ssnally, I see the office as a way tonwet new people and involvemyself in interesting things.Politically, I hope to improve stu-dent government slightly. Classgovernments are potentiallyuseful things; a sophomore'-coun-cil need not be a ring-polishingcommittee, but could fund andorganize class seminars and infor-mation, job-seeking, and cousell-ing services.

I have experience in treasurypositions and feel as competent asany other candidate. I also feelrtotivated to be creative: I will tryto increase interest, action andrepresenltation.

As Secretary-Treasurer of theClass of 1982, I would:

I)suggest a class party, picnicor other social activity to helpbring the class together andimprove class spirit.

2)propose that the sophomoresapply For a loan from an MITsource to provide funds forclass-related activities. Theloan can be repaid after wehave made some money(through the class t-shirt sale,etc.). The amount would de-pend on what the class in-terested in doing.

3)see that the class isrepresented fairly in thechoice of rings and have anactive part in making deci-sions.

Seward. George Martin is excellent asAbraham Van Helsing, his stentorian andauthoritative tone always in control.

William B. Cain is obscure as D:>r.Seward, Lucy's father and proprietor of theSeward Sanitorium, where patients slowlydie as victims of the Count. MalcomSteward adequately plays the good-looking, boring stiff in love with Lucy.Leta Anderson and Geoff Garland give anentertaining flavor of their own as the maidand butler.

Finally, there is the wonderfully crazyRichard S. Levine, who as the captivatingloonie, is forever keeping the Sanatoriumstaff on their toes and the audience in theaisles.

There is plenty of theatre that comes toBoston that is more important in adramatic or social context than anythngpresented in Dracula. But for-escapistamusement with a flair for light humor anda bit of drama, Dracula is most entertain-ing.

Jean LeClerc, stars in the touringproduction in the role popularized byFrank Langelia (currently played by RaulJulia in New- York). LeClerc conveys thenecessary poise, charm, and sensualmystery. Yet his choppy, forceful projec-tion, coupled with the gutteral merger of a

By Leigh J. PassmanA national touring production of

Dracula has batted its way back to Bostonto give the city a second taste of the enter-taining classic. Dracula returns as it left,not really a mystery. Given the universalityof Bram Stoker's novel, the widespread ex-posure to the plethora of vampire-clonedmovies, and the nature of live theatre (par-ticularly its intermissions), Dracula in amodern day form could not succeed solelyas suspenseful mystery.

Instead, Drcula has been revived fromthe Hamilton Dean/John Balderstondramatization in what may be aptlydescribed as a comedy thriller. Stillsuspenseful and exciting, the play, underDennis Rtosa's direction, conveys a more

tongue-in-chek (or fang-in-cheek, as theNew York critics have tagged it)melodramatic tone. While sporadicallypoking fun at itself with audience asides bythe Count and sight gags, Dracula is stilltold with tension, romance, and the per-vasive theme of good over evil.

The play, in a little over two hours in-cluding the two intermissions, is fa~t-pacedand never drags. Edward Gorey's designfor the sets with his black and whiteetching-like detail are impressive and effec-tive.

Two Gentlemen of Verona byWilliam Shakespeare. StarringSteven A veson, Kirsten Giroux,Catherine Rust, Henry Woronicz.Directed by William Lacey; inrepertory by the BostonShakespeare Company.

By Joe WesSeventeenth century Verona is

a rather remote time and placefrom contemporary America.There has been a great temptationof late to "update" Shakespeare's-plays, especially the comedies.The BSC has resisted this fad intheir latest production, a choicethat seems well-justified with onlya few adverse consequences.

Steven Aveson is first-rate- inhis treatmentof Proteus. The pro-tean protagonist is perplexinglyperfidious, even for a comedy,most productions chose to passoff his contradictions under theveil of absurdity. Aveson, on theother hand, gives an interpreta-tion of an individual who findshimself betraying his dearestfriend and his betrothed over his

new-found love for anotherwoman.

IIn the first scene, Aveson total-ly dominates his companionValentine (Henry Woronicz) inreciting his love for Julia. In sub-sequent scenes he similarlyovershadows Antonio (RichardMoses) and Panthino (StacyStein). His perfect swoon overJulia is quickly followed by his in-

troduction to Silvia (CatherineRust), where he manifests signs offalling in love only to those look-

ling for them. In monologuewrestling with his dilemma, in hisacts of treachery against hisfriend, In seizing upon an oppor-tunity to advance his own cause,Aveson's portrayal convincinglybrings out this most difficult ofcharacters. In Proteus's finalrepentance, a scene which too

easily resembles an artificiallyhappy ending, Aveson insteadconveys a sense of sincere self-realization.

Kirsten Giroux does an equallydelightful job with the role of the

spurned lover. Julia theElizabethan maiden seems par-ticularly distant in these days ofwomen's liberation; the characterborders orn the abslurd when shetoys with the idea of falling love,or tentatively kisses her Proleusfor the first time.

Giroux's first chance to displaysomething more comes in thethird act, where the maiden isdetermined to join her beloved,but worries about the possibledamge to her reputation. Whenshe reappears in the play it is to becrushed by the revelation ofProteus's fickle nature. She doesher best to cope with this aban-donment; in the final scene,Giroux is perfect as she attemptsto divine the true Proteus.

Rust is very good as the com-passionate and yet restrainedSilvia: tender in her momentswith Valentine, and showing greatempathy for the problems ofJulia, a woman she's never met.Both Woronicz and Thomas Ap-plc (as the Duke of Milan) deliverdisappointingly spotty perfor-mances. While Thurio (DouglasOvertoom) is supposed to beValentine's foolish rival, directorWilliam Lacey has unfortunatelydecided to make the part exag-gerated and cliche.

To round out the production,Paul Dunn and Grey Johnson br-ing high comic relief as thegentlemen's servants; each is idealfor hnis respective role. Ingeniousset design and appropriate periodmusic round out a fine produc-tion Of one of Shakespeare's greatcomedies. ,

Two fools, Speed (Paul Dunn, left) and Launce (Grey Johnson, right)examine a love letter in The Two Gentlemen of Verona.

By Gregg Stave

When Karen Klincewicz came

to M IT last Spetember she wasn't

sure if she would join the

Women's Swim Team. Aftermeeting Coach John Benedict andmembers of the team she decidedto swim and began attendingpractices. By the end of theseason, Karen had set eight in-dividual event school records andbeen a member of three, recordsetting freestyle relay teams as sheled the Women's team to its mostsuccessful season (8-1) to date.

Karen began swimmingseriously at the age of ten.Seriously meant working out fourhours a day, which, looking back,Karen believes was excessive. Shewas, however, nationally rankedat the time and that amount ofhard work aind dedication wasnecessary to maintain her staltus.At the age of fourteen Karen hit aplateau and missed qualifying forthe AAU Nationals by half a se-cond for three straight seasons,She became disgusted with swim-rning because she was no longerimproving and dropped downfrom swimming 10,00 vards to2,000 yards per dty. Although shecontinued to swim on a teamthrough high school she did notcxljoy it.

A~rri-ving at M IT in the fall,Karen swam during open swimm-ing time and mnet several membersOf the Women's team. She alsomet Coach Benedick aind liked theatmosphere surrounding M91ITswiltmling. A fter al few weeks ofpralctice Karen salw that she wasaimproving' and began to enjoyswixulling aga~ill.

C oach Benedick's attitudetoward swimming was importantto Karen. She feels that "youhalve to work very hoard but it'snot tot) high pressured. If youhalve to miss a practice because of

schoolwork it's okay." Swimmingdid not interfere with academics.Instead, Karen likes the idea ofgoing to practice because its "nice.to do something different afterclasses." Karen also enjoyed thefact that workouts Were co-ed sothat she could swim in lanes withthe men's team. She believes thatshe is more competitive with menand that made her work evenharder during practices.

Highlights of her season in-cluded having the opportunity,even though it was at her own ex-pense, to spend two weeks withthe team training. in Florida dur-ing January. Another high pointfor -the freshman fromPhiladelphia was the chance; totravel to the Nationals in Reno,Nevada. Previously, Karen felt

that she "swam well this season,

except at the Nationals."

In his fourth year at MIT, John

Benedick coaches both swim

teams. According to the coach,

Karen is "one of the toughest and

most dedicated swimmers on both

the Men's and Women's teams,

but, even though she is a class

swimmer there is a lot of room forimprovement." He enjoys work-

ing with Karen trying to figure

out ways to better her times. Sheis a versatile swim m'er and has

already set two records in butterf-

ly, three in freestyle and three

more in individual medley.

Karen is currently testing her

skill as a runner on the newly

formed Women's Track Team.

She is already looking forward to

next year's swim season.
