With summer almost here, students might plan to head outside to enjoy a clear, starry summer night, with a tall glass of something cold and sweet in one hand, and a comfortable chair in the other. University students will still have to jog, kick and swim their way through exercise and sport activity and health requirements, the University Faculty Senate decided yesterday. Members of the Lesbian, Gay and Bisexual Student Alliance are considering filing a lawsuit, claiming that several A.W. & Sons security guards verbally and physically harassed them Friday night at Beaver Hill. Bill Sarniak, John Mincin and Peter DiPietro locked the door of their Graduate building apartment last Thanksgiving break feeling secure that their belongings were safe. But while they enjoyed turkey dinners with their families, personal belongings worth $2,600 were stolen from their apartment. Republican gubernatorial candidate Mike Fisher has served in state government for 18 years and was re-elected to his fourth term in the state Senate by a margin of 2-1. Democratic gubernatorial candidate Lynn Yeakel has been in the public eye since she defeated Mark Singel for the democratic spot on the U.S. Senate ticket in 1992. Philadelphia businessman Sam Katz has been active in politics throughout his career -- in 1991 he sought the Republican nomination for Philadelphia's mayor and served on the Board of Education of the School District of Philadelphia from 1981 to 1985. Democratic gubernatorial candidate Dwight Evans, 39, has served as a state representative from Philadelphia and was elected as chairman of the state House of Representatives Appropriations Committee in 1990. Democratic gubernatorial candidate Philip Valenti, 44, has been a long-time associate of economist Lyndon LaRouche, frequently contributing to LaRouche-associated periodicals. Democratic gubernatorial candidate Charles Volpe, 33, considers himself a Harrisburg outsider -- he is a businessman who has never before run for public office. Democratic gubernatorial candidate Mark Singel, 39, started his political career in the state Senate and was elected lieutenant governor under Gov. Robert P. Casey. His career was briefly interrupted in 1992 when he ran for the Democratic nomination for U.S. Senate. Republican gubernatorial candidate Ernie Preate Jr. has served as the state's attorney general, forming bipartisan coalitions that have pushed through the legislature consumer laws, tougher child sexual abuse laws and an entirely new law to combat charity fraud. Republican gubernatorial candidate John F. Perry is a doctor who specializes in orthopedic surgery and sports medicine and is a team physician for Lock Haven University. Although he has never been involved in politics, he ran for the U.S. Senate in 1992 on the Libertarian Party ticket. Although U.S. Rep. Tom Ridge won the state Republican State Committee nomination for the Republican gubernatorial spot on the ticket, Ridge has continued on the campaign trail -- unveiling a safe-school initiative, a $2 billion tax cut, a welfare-reform plan, a crime package and a putting-Pennsylvanians-back-to-work plan. Democratic gubernatorial candidate Catherine Baker Knoll, 63, has served as state treasurer since 1989 -- making it the fourth time a woman has held the position. At 9:30 p.m. on a Sunday, students ooze toward Liones East's cash register like pepperoni swims on a pizza. Using their ID card or spare change, the customers purchase pizza with a potpourri of toppings, turkey bagels, strombolis and an array of other goods. The Undergraduate Student Government Senate selected five people for executive department positions last night.
She is standing at the end of a diving board. Instead of focusing on the way she has to manipulate her body to execute the perfect dive, she is obessessing about the buldge on her stomach. It used to be difficult to determine which schools would receive berths in the NCAA Men's Volleyball Final Four. But now, because the Eastern Intercollegiate Volleyball Association and Midwest Intercollegiate Volleyball Association voted to officially affiliate themselves with the NCAA, the selections became easier to ascertain. It is time to shed a little light on men's lacrosse -- maybe a couple thousand watts. The two halves of the softball team's doubleheader yesterday against Ohio State were about as different as two games can be. Game one was a battle of the teams' aces -- a 1-0 pitchers's duel. The nightcap was a hitter's game -- a 6-3 contest featuring 16 hits. In the blink of an eye, her slender figure works its way down the field into an open position. Tall and unassuming, she sends the defenders elsewhere. It's no wonder Kara Stockett scores so many goals. When Aren Nielsen calmly took to the ice to practice last Saturday, all of the eyes in the arena shifted, smoothly swaying their attention to his presence. Knocking off two triple Axels like nothing, he satisfied their curiosity. When Jeremy Metzger graduated from McDowell High School in Erie, the basketball player wanted to go south. He never really entertained thoughts of attending Penn State. So, he decided to play Division I basketball at the University of Richmond. In the age of specialization in the 1990s, athletes are persuaded and pushed until they are finally convinced that it is in the team's best interest to dedicate their sole attention to one sport. Near the end of last semester, softball player Kelly Sax woke up every morning with a terrible headache. Then she blacked out at a conditioning session. She knew something was wrong, but could not foresee the adversity she would soon face -- surgery to correct a malfunctioning cerebellum that was restricting oxygen flow to her brain. Brian Hill has seen it all.
The current coach of the playoff-bound Orlando Magic had a rather inauspicious beginning in the coaching ranks.
