Whipple weighs in on issues Ed Whipple is a behind-the-scenes

type of guy. Whipple, the University's vice pres-

ident for student affairs, received his bachelor's degree from Willamette University in Salem. Oregon, and his master's from Northwestern University, Evanston, IL He obtained his Ph. D. at Oregon State University, and worked as a high school english teacher and track coach prior to BGSU.

He also worked in higher educa- tion at Iowa State University, Texas Tech University, the University of Alabama and Montana State University-Billings before coming here in July of 1994.

1. What do you spend mostofyour time at work doing?

It seems like I spend too much time in meetings; however, the majority of time is actually working with staff on a variety of initiatives and issues to helo them provide support and excel- lent programs and services to stu- dents. No one day is the same, which is a great pan of the job.

2. Whafs your favorite part of your job?

Any time I can see a student. In this job it would be easy to go days with- out visiting or helping a student or group of students.

3. When you were a kid, what did you originally want to grow up to be

and why? I went the entire

range of wanting to be a fireman when I was small to really thinking in college I was goning into medicine. There was a time in college when I was going into the ministry, but that was only for two weeks after I had bro- ken up with my girl- friend. Once I found another girlfriend the ministry didn't look so interesting

1 fell into education by chance when, after receiving my MA in English, I needed a job. Even with no teacher edu- cation courses the city of Chicago was Iii mi); teachers on an emergency basis. I took a spelling and math test and passed and received a temporary license to teach. I discov- ered I thoroughly enjoyied it and thus, stayed in the field.

4. If you could have dinner with three people, dead or alive, who would they be and why?

• Jimmy Carter — The best former president we have ever had. I Ic is a

tremendous humanitarian. • Shakespeare — I concentrated on

him during my graduate work in English. Obviously, his writings por- tray a fascinating world.

• Princess Diana — A complex and tragic individual. I like the royal fami- ly and would enjoy learning the real story.

5. With the recent $2 million cut

from the University budget and a tight economy, how will the University cope over the next few years?

Budget reductions provide us a great opportunity to re- think "how we do business." I am look- ing forward to evalu- ating and reviewing at least in the student affairs area, all of our programs/ services and ascertain those which really make a difference in the lives of students and pro- mote and support the classroom teaching. I am sure we will cope "just fine."

6. Who is your Vice President tor Student Attain Ed Whipple favorite musical

artist? J.S. Bach. I might

have said Kenny C, but would have taken too much flak for that from our University attorney.

7. If you could have any nickname, what would you choose and why?

That's a tough one. Any one I'd choose I'd gel laughed off campus. Probably, just "Sport." Two reasons — I love sports and think I'm a pretty

good sport when I gei hammered by others.

8. Non-voting Student members sit on many University committees. How have they influenced commit- tee decisions?

Students are what we are all about their participation and input is cru- dal to effective decision-making. IKiSU provides more student input opportunities than other institutions where I have worked. In my experi- ence here, their comments are taken very seriously. In fact, often the stu- dents are the most rationale and insightful members of the commit- tee.

9. What's your most embarrassing moment that you're willing to put in print?

In college when I was in a fraterni- ty brother's wedding and fainted two minutes before we were to enter the church. (Actually, I didn't care for the bride so 1 suppose it was my way of opposing the marriage.)

10. Any last words for graduating seniors?

1. Always know you can do any- thing you set your mind to.

2. Don't take no for an answer. 3. Never say never. 4. Remember the great education

you received at B(iSI) and return to visit.

Cap, gown have come a long way By Kara Hud OUPUS DEWS EDITOR

On their walk across the stage May 10, graduates will take a bit of the past with them, as tradition dictates. Caps and long gowns have been a part of academic commencement ceremonies since the 12th century and have accompanied the University's commencement exer- cises since their inception in 1915.

Originally worn by medieval cler- ics to provide warmth in unheated buildings, traditional graduation garb in American colleges and uni- versities follow a definite system, according to guidelines set by the American Council on Education (ACE). Since the group's first draft of a code for academic costumes in 1932, most institutions of higher educa- tion have kept this tradition as part of their commencement ceremonies.

A tradition 27 years in the making will also accompany this year's grad- uates, as they will be wearing Oak Hall Cap and Gown regalia. The Salem, Va. based company was founded in 1889 and services more than 1,300 colleges and universities nationwide. The company also man- ufactures robes for high school and kindergarten graduations as well as judicial and religious robes.

According to Wendy Buchanan, Peregrine Shop manager, the service they provide earns them a place in the commencement exercises again this year.

"We have no complaints about the company,'' she said. "They're always very friendly and we haven't had any problems with our orders."

Making customer service a priori- ty helps Oak Hall easily cam SI .5 mil- lion a year, according lo loe D'Angelo, executive vice president of the company.

"We're the only cap and gown ser- vice that doesn't have voicemail," he said. "When you call you'll always speak to a live person. This is how committed we are to customer ser- vice."

Producing every part of the robe in one of their two sewing plants in Virginia, the company manufactures year-round and services such large institutions as Ohio State University, Ohio University, University of Michigan, Case Western and the University of Florida. They also cus- tom design regalia lo fit specific needs.

"We have no complaints about the company. They're always very friendly and we haven't had

had any problems with our orders." WENDY BUCHANAN, MANAGER OF THE PEREGRINE SHOP

Walton returned toToledo and The Blade in 1995. In addition to serving as editor of the newspaper, he hosts "The Editors."

liberal studies graduate of BGSU, will speak at graduation for students in the College of Arts and Sciences.

This yen the commencement ceremony can be seen on the Interne) through streaming video. Streaming video is the process oi taking analog video and digilalizing and compressing it into a video stream thai can be senl across the Internet WBGU-PBS will produce and transmit live video streams oi the graduate commencement cere- mony held May 4 and undergradu- ate graduation ceremonies being held May 10.

This is the first time live streaming video will lie available off campus, according to Patrick litzgerald. general manager of WBCilI- PBS and director of televi- sion learning services.

To view the ceremony online one must have a high broadband con- nection for the best picture. Such connections include cable modems, DSI. or satellite connections. The live stream can be viewed in real time over the University's Web site. http://www.bgsu.edu.

"When we stream off campus, we have to rely on the bandwidth of the end users' particular Internet Service Provider," Tom Oumrnings, WBGU PBS1 technical services coordinator said. "Due to the inconsistent con- nections via 5K modems, the end user experience would bi verj poor, so thai is why we are only targeting

higher broadband connei lions I le is recommending the user have at least 300 kilobits-per-second con- nections to successfully view the commencement streams

Dobb said the University has been heavily involved in streaming all year. They can stream thing) to class- rooms and desktop computers fairly quickly

According to romCunimings, the commencement video stream will be available on campus through the University's Digital Streaming Service system thai was created last fall, I his system was Hrsi tested a.

Meet the new BG News editors-in-chief The Board of Student Publications

has chosen Kara Hull and Michael Ksenyak as editors-in-chief of The BG News for fall and summer semesters, respectively.

Hull, a rising junior, became a reporter for The BG News the first week she arrived at the University as a freshman in August 2001. After spend- ing a year as a reporter, she spent another as campus news editor. Becoming editor-in-chief has long been a goal of hers.

"I knew I wanted to do it eventual- ly," she said.

Hull's experience in journalism started early, having spent four years filling various roles on her high school newspaper, Smoke Signals, in Cincinnati.

"I had almost any position you could have on a high school paper," she said.

Though she has filled a variety of jobs at The BG News, she says writing is what she enjoys most.

"Pretty much all my hobbies deal with writing," she said.

Aside from her experience at The BG News, she is a freelance writer for ENCOUNTER, a Christian magazine

for teen-agers. She will also serve a reporting internship at the Tiffin Advertiser-Tribune this summer. In addition, she has taken photos for Miscellany Magazine, a part of Student Publications.

Her goals for The BG News include increased coverage of University gov- erning bodies, more sports features and expanding the role of the paper's Web site, www.bgnews.com. She is a member of the Honors Program and CRU. She also serves as publicity director for the Association for Women in Communication.

Ksenyak, a senior set to graduate in August, has spent two years as a reporter for The BG News. Now he will oversee the producation of The BG News, which is published weekly in the summer.

Originally, Ksenyak was set to be co- editor alongside Patricia Rengifo, cur- rently city news editor for The BG News. When Rengifo found a summer internship, Ksenyak realized he'd have to tackle the job himself.

"It was scary at first," Ksenyak said. "But I'm getting used to |the ideal."

The first summer issue of The BG News will be printed May 21.

Shuttle undocks from space station

By Marcia Dunn 1H[ ASSOCIATED PRESS

ASTANA, Kazakhstan—A Russian capsule undocked from the interna- tional space station early Sunday, carrying two American astronauts and a Russian cosmonaut hound for a landing on the isolated steppes of Central Asia.

The three were supposed to ride the U.S. space shuttle back lo Florida, hut the shuttle fleet was grounded after the Columbia disin- tegrated over Texas on Feb. 1, killing its seven astronauts.

That forced a change in travel plans, putting the Americans, Kenneth Bowersox and Donald Petfit, into the cramped Russian craft and making them the first NASA astronauts to land in a foreign spacecraft in a foreign land.

The Soyuz TMA-1 capsule carry- ing Bowersox, Pettit and cosmonaut Nikolai Budarin separated from the station at 6:43 p.m. EDT Saturday, said officials at Russian mission con- trol outside Moscow, where the ship could be seen on a big screen, back- ing slowly away from the station.

Landing was set for 10:07 p.m. EDT in a remote spot 250 miles southwest of Kazakhstan's capital, Astana

The return is more tense than usual — not only because is it the first since the Columbia disaster, but also because this new Soyuz model

\l A AI A A A \l \

has never gone through a descent before.

Because of Columbia, "the eyes of the American public and Congress and everyone are going lo be on this landing," said Dr. I.D Polk, a U.S. flight surgeon specialized in emer- gency medicine. "We just don't have any acceptance for any risk right now."

NASA pulled out all the medical stops for the touchdown — which takes place on hard ground instead of in the water like in the pre-shuttle days of the U.S. space program. A pair of NASA flight surgeons took loads of medical supplies aboard helicopters that were transporting them from Astana to the landing site.

Because the Soyuz is so cramped, Bowersox, Pettit and Budarin will bring back very little — mainly just a few small personal items, film, water and other environmental samples, and a handful of science experi- ments.

All their other belongings from 161 days in space were left behind to await home delivery by the next vis- iting shuttle — whenever that may be. That stash includes Pettit's didgeridoo, an Australian Aboriginal hom he played to entertain his 2 1/2-year-old twin sons during video conferences.

Astronauts' original destination was Florida SPACE. FROM PAGE 17

Bowersox and Pettit spenl 5 1/2 months aboard the space station with Kudarin. Almost two months were added to their mission to give Iheil replacements enough time to arrive aboard another Soyuz, the TMA-2.

Astronaut Ixdward In and cos- monaut Yuri Malenchenko checked in last week for a six- month stay that promises (o be a challenge, given the reduction in crew size to conserve supplies until shuttle flights resume.

Russian cosmonauts regularly descend in capsules — most recently in Nov. 10.2002. when two

Russians and a Belgian returned to Earth.

In a link-up to the station broad- cast live on Russian state television Saturday before the undocking, Hudarin played down the risk of returning in a Soyuz that has not landed before, saying the differ- ences from the previous model were "only modifications."

"I have made two descents in a Soyuz and there were no problems at all, and I think there won't be any problems this time." he said, bob- bing slowly up and down in zero gravity and surrounded by the departing and remaining crew members.

Bowersox, speaking Russian, said the mission aboard the station went well. "We carried out every- thing we intended to, but most important is that we worked well together as an international crew," he said.

Besides their usual medical kits, Polk and his fellow NASA flight sur- geon had a defibrillator, heart mon- itor and trauma and resuscitation equipment. In addition, U.S. Air Force doctors were deployed for the parachuted spacecraft landing, along with their miniature operat- ing room, and some major hospi- tals in Europe were on alert.

"Even that much medical force is

pale compared with we normally have" in Cape Canaveral, Fla., for shuttle landings, Polk said. "It prob- ably is overkill, but you never want to say 'if only' in the spaceflight business."

The Russians, who typically have just a handful of doctors present for a Soyuz landing, have been under- standing, Polk said.

"Probably, medical support will shrink after this, once we become comfortable with this vehicle and comfortable with the situation," he said.

The wives of Bowersox and Pettit, along with the twins, traveled from Houston to Russia for what was

sure to be an emotional reunion. They did not go all the way to Kazakhstan, but waited at Star City, the cosmonaut training headquar- ters near Moscow. So did Budarin's family.

lim Newman, an astronaut in charge of NASA's human space- flight program in Russia, expects Bowersox and Pettit will have a dif- ficult time adjusting to the new space reality, as everyone has.

"It's not the space program that we had hoped because of the tragedy," Newman said, "but we're certainly ready for whatever comes."

Police estimated that up to 600,000 .oiinn people — well above the i hull1'- prediction — filled the grounds of the Cuatro Vientos air base on the outskirts of Madrid Thej

The government of IVimc Minister lose Maria Aznar, which includes several conservative Catholic minis- ters, supported the Iraq war. although the vast majority ol Spaniards were opposed

lohn Paul said peace was a "Rill from heaven" that uuisi be achieved through a "profound interior conver- sion." He urged young people to be Vvorkersand artisans ol peace." and rejected "exaggerated nationalism, racism and intolerance."

"Respond to the blind violence and inhuman hate with the fascinat- ing powet oi love," lohn Paul said,

His remarks on peace were inter- rupted by applause and shunts of

cl Papa." One sign indicated Spain's enthusiasm for the aging pontiff: "Juan Pablo: ole, ole. ole."

The Vatican maintained that the war in Iraq was neiiher morally nor

legally justified. With ihe fall of Saddam Hussein, il has suggested that the United Nations play a role in reconstruction efforts.

"lohn Paul II has spoken out lor peace, and was not listened lo. just like many other people around the world who asked for peace and said mi lo war," said Uipe Armas, a 30- year-old elementary school teacher from the Canary Islands.

"We need more people like Edward, who served God like they served their country."

FRANCISCO ACOSTA. REVEREND

South Texas family buries last missing serviceman

ByluanaLozano IHE «SS0CIME0 PRESS

BROWNSVILLE, Texas — Listed as missing in action for a month in Iraq. Army Spc. Edward John Anguiano was buried Saturday after a funeral Mass at a church that overflowed with more than 500 people.

San In.inn.i Anguiano stared sto- ically at her 24-year-old son's gray casket during the graveside service, but began to cry after being given the American flag that had draped the casket.

The soldier's grandfather, Vicente Anguiano Sr., said it was the family's most difficult day.

"But at the same time, it's a relief because he has come home after so many days being missing," he said. "He's home."

Edward Anguiano, a mechanic in the 3rd Infantry Combat Support Battalion out of Fort Stewart, Ga., was declared missing after the unit he was traveling with, the 507th

Maintenance Company from Fort Bliss at El Paso, was attacked on March 23 at Nasiriyah in southern Iraq.

He, another member of the 3rd Infantry and nine members of the 507th were killed. Six comrades were taken prisoner and later rescued.

Anguiano's remains were found April 24 near the ambush site and positively identified last week.

On Saturday, mourners offered the family their condolences as three musicians with guitars played "Eternal lave," by Mexican recording artist luan Gabriel. "How I wish you would live, that your eyes would never close and would watch us," they sang in Spanish.

"Edward lohn Anguiano is alive. He will always be alive in your hearts," the Rev. Francisco Acosta said during the funeral Mass, con- ducted in English and Spanish at Our Lady of Guadalupe Catholic Church.

At his graveside service, friends and teachers remembered Anguiano as polite, soft-spoken and always willing to help.

"It breaks all our hearts it had to happen this way," said childhood friend Fernando Diaz. 30. "We have our hero now. It's just too bad it had to be this way"

Controversy rages over graduation speaker ByDanaHul IHE 1SS0CIAU0 PRESS

BERKELEY, Calif. _ Controversy al UC-Berkeley is as routine as studenls cramming for finals. But as the cam- pus that gave birth to the Free Speech Movement, the grumbling is louder than usual over Friday's commence- ment speaker.

And it has nothing to do with affir- mative action, the war in Afghanistan or the violence in the Middle East, it has to do with... skiing.

lonny Moseley, an Olympic gold medalist skier and UCIA dropout, will address the graduating class of 2002. The choice has been widely crit-

icized. "Why Moseley" was scrawled

Wednesday in chalk in front of the Alumni House. Senior Brian Chu, 21, who will graduate with a computer science degree Friday, said he is upset Moseley is speaking.

Others have been even less charita- ble in their reactions.

The editorial board of the student newspaper ripped the choice last week, in an editorial that can be sung to the tune of "American Pie":

' Bye, bye, you seniors good-bye," lonny said at commencement, a

crazed look in his eye, And though you may be thinking,

"Who the hell is this guy?" lust sit back, listen, and sigh... The selection of Moseley, who

dropped out of college, is a stark departure for the academically renowned university. Last year, for- mer Attorney General Janet Reno delivered the commencement address and then-Secretary of State Madeleine Albright spoke in 2000.

But a commencement organizer defended the choice.

"We're thrilled to have him and I think he's going to do a great job," said lason Simon, a professional staff member hired by the Cal Alumni Association to advise students on the

search for a speaker. "His message as an Olympian will really resonate with students. He's been skiing since he was 4 years old, and has an outstand- ing message about dedication and setting goals."

Moseley, 26, earned the first U.S. gold medal in freestyle moguls at the 1998 Winter Olympic Games in Nagano, lapan. He is best known for his trademark "Dinner Roll" trick in which he Dies off the moguls jump, then rotates 720 degrees with his body parallel to the ground.

Moseley was returning from a trip to Paris and could not be reached for comment Wednesday.

Pope visits Spain in seeking support POPE. FROM PAGE 20 lohn Paul met with Aznar and his wife. They stuck to family issues and did not discuss Aznar's stance in the Iraq war, papal spokesman loaquin Navarro-Valls said.

The pope's 32-hour trip, his fifth visit to Spain and 99th foreign tour of his papacy, was a test of his frail health, lohn Paul suffers from the symptoms of Parkinson's — a pro- gressive neurological disorder — that include slurred speech and trembling hands. He also has knee and hip ailments that make walk- ing difficult.

The pontiff is seeking to reinvig- orate Spanish Roman Catholics who have strayed from their once- dominant church, and planned to proclaim five new saints Sunday as pan of his efforts to provide role models for the faithful.

King luan Carlos and Queen Sofia greeted him as he made his first visit abroad in nine months. The king praised his work as "most noble of causes."

The pope used a lift to descend from the plane and a trolley to move along a red carpet laid out for him. The queen walked beside him.

He appeared in good form after the 2 1/2 hour-flight from Rome. After the crowd sang "lohn Paul Two, the whole world loves you,"' he joked: "At least in Spain they do"

Online matchmakers targeting college students By Martha Irvine IHC ASSOCIATED PRESS

They might not want to admit it. Even when surrounded by hundreds of potential dates, many college stu- dents have a hard time finding love.

That fact, coupled with their Internet savvy, is making students a natural market for a growing number of high-tech cupids who are provid- ing online matchmaking services aimed at the college crowd.

Some, such as the newly launched CollegeLuv.com, were started by companies that already run more general online dating services. Others have been created by stu- dents such as Michael Mason, who saw a need and decided to fill it. Most, though not all, charge a fee

"It used to be that no one wanted to tell their friends they met someone online," says Mason, a North Carolina State sophomore who start- ed CampusFlirts.com three months ago. "That stigma still exists, but I think it's really starting to fade."

So far, about 3,000 students from campuses across the country have signed up for Mason's matchmaking service, which he started with money from his credit cards.

Jonathan Monsarrat. a graduate of the Massachusetts Institute of

Technology, went smaller scale, cre- ating a free temporary site that helped students and recent gradu- ates from M IT, Harvard and WcUesley find dates for Valentine's Day. Nearly 4,000 people signed up.

Because of it, Monsarrat said, even he found what he calls an "almost girlfriend."

Online matchmaking for college students is part of an overall trend in which new sites are being created to help people with similar back- grounds or interests find one anoth- er. They include everything from Makeoutclub.com, a site for fans of indie and hardcore music, to MeraPyar.com, a matchmaking site for people of South Asian descent.

Many entrepreneurs see love- starved college students as one of the most lucrative markets.

Not that every college student wants it known that she or he is cruis- ing for love online. Mason says some subscribers sheepishly ask to have their profiles removed once teasing friends see them.

Many others happily share their stories.

Tonia Turner, a 19-year-old stu- dent al Indiana Institute of Technology, has gone out on several dates with men she's met online So

far, she hasn't found that special someone.

Faraz All, a Harvard business school graduate who still lives in the Boston area, recently hosted a party and invited three women he'd met via Monsarrat's site.

He says he was glad the site includ- ed graduate students and alumni.

"Something told me that trying to chase down that undergrad was sim- ply not exactly going to be a high per- centage shot," says Ali, a product manager for a biotech company who recently turned 30.

He says many people his age and younger have trouble finding dates because they are too shy or stuck in their ways — or study, work or travel too much.

He also thinks many people, including some of his friends, are too picky. And that, he quips, makes it "difficult to settle for something less than the average 'Swedish model brain-surgeon-tango-dancing-intel- lectual-hippy-chic-y et-mater nally- inclined-best-friend."'

Meeting people via the Web, he says, helps get them out of their rut.

About two years ago, he met Tanya, then a student at a college nine hours away. They plan to marry this summer.
