KOSAR WS. FLOTIE Hurricanes battle against Boston College's Heisman candidate quarterback in Friday’s game against the Eagles SPORTS, p. 8 V DS3 CALENDAR GIRLS Students make it big as part of business student’s project ENTERTAINMENT, p. 6 Volume 61 Number 25 3h? »— mmt YJ Tuesday, November 20, 1984 liiVI Sets its Sights on Fiesta Bowl By JOHN BEAULIEU Hurricane Sports L'Jitor University of Miami Head Football Coach Jimmy Johnson tries to shy away from the talk of bowls. But now there’s no way to avoid it. Earlier in the year, when Miami was on the verge of a five-game winning streak, Johnson consistently avoided any talk of the bowl situation because he felt it would disrupt the team. "We're just going to take one game at a time. I know that there can be some positive things for this team at the end of the season," he said. By now everyone knows that Miami's plans have hit a slight snag due to last week's heart-stopping loss to Maryland, but it doesn't take away from the importance of Friday's game. "Friday's game with Boston College is a very important one for us," Johnson said. "Because of the loss to Maryland, this game becomes all the more important." And Johnson is right. For Miami, the bowl situation is quite simple. If they beat Boston College then they will probably go to the Fiesta Bowl in Tempe, Ariz. The Fiesta Bowl is one of the five New Year's Day bowls; this will give Miami the national television exposure to go along with the prestige of playing on a New Year’s Day bowl. Also, the Fiesta Bowl will produce more money ($1.05 million per team) for Miami. Probable opponents for a 9-3 Miami team are many, but the leading candidate right now should be UCLA. The Bruins upset Southern California on Saturday and with the win it becomes one of the leading candidates for the Fiesta Bowl. This Saturday's game between Oklahoma and Oklahoma State, also looms big in the picture. The winner of this game will go to the Orange Bowl, while the loser could go to either the Gator or F'iesta Bowl. Another possibility for Miami could come in the form of Texas Christian University, who on Saturday lost to Texas, 44-23. The possibility even exists that Notre Dame could be offered a spot in the Fiesta Bowl if it upsets USC on Saturday. But what if Miami loses to Boston College on Saturday? If this were to happen the F'iesta Bowl might still come calling, because Miami is the defending national champion and because they offer an exciting team to the national television audience. In all probability, an 8-4 Miami team would have to decide between one of the many lesser bowl games. They — Johnson and UM Athletic Director Sam Jankovich — would have to make their decisions based on which bowl game would give the school more money and more exposure. Among the bowls that an 8-4 Hurricane team could go for is the newly-installed Cherry Bowl. The Cherry Bowl is played in Pontiac, Mich., and is expected to produce between S750.000 and $1 million depending on how the ticket sales go. The one bad thing about this bowl for Miami is that it will appear only on syndicated television (Mizlou Syndication). If people think a Bernie Kosar-Doug Flutie matchup is going to be something, then what would they think of Kosar vs. Robbie Bosco of Brigham Young, who has passed for over 3,500 yards. It could happen to an 8-4 Miami team if they choose to play in the Holiday Bowl in San Diego, Ca., against the undefeated Cougars, Western Athletic Conference champions. But bet against this bowl game for two reasons; only $470,000 per team and syndicated television (Mizlou and ESPN) Other possibilities fur an 8-4 Miami team include: the Gator Bowl in Jacksonville. Fla., which offers national television exposure (ABC) but produces only $750,000 for each school; the Florida Citrus Bowl (NBC) and only $600,000; and the Aloha Bowl in Hawaii. After Saturday's games are concluded, who Miami plays and where they will play should become much clearer. They wanted the Orange or Cotton Bowl, but now that those bowl games are out of the question, Miami has set its sights on Tempe, Ariz. The Fiesta Bowl is the bowl that Miami wants, and with a win against the Boston College Eagles Friday afternoon, the Fiesta Bowl will be the game they get Miami Hurricane/MARTIM APPLEBAUM The fun begins Jim Weber, Eric Robinson, Andrew Parker and Clayton Randall organize supplies for Carni Gras booths. The annual University of Miami event will be held in February. Speciali sis on Lai in America to discuss foreign policies By CHIQUI CARTAGENA Hurricane Staff Writer Some of the couufy’s top specialists in Latin American relations and foreign policy will meet next week at the University of Miami to discuss some of the most important issues concerning U.S.-Latin American relations. The day-long conference will be held Nov. 27 at Brock way Hall and is the first of a series of international activities sponsored by the North-South Center in conjunction with the Institute of Interamerican Studies and the Graduate School of International Studies. "This is really the first time since the elections that major figures in US-Latin American relations will have a chance to come together and talk about the future directions of US foreign policy," said Ambler H. Moss, Jr. Dean of the Graduate School of International Studies. According to Moss, some of the issues that were superficially raised during the 1984 election campaign will now be analyzed in much more depth. "This conference is important not only because it brings together renowned scholars in the field of Latin American Studies, but also because it provides a forum for these scholars to discuss topics of mutual concern with practitioners from the field of diplomacy and multinational business,” said Dr Alexander Mclntire, associate director of the North South Center Students can participate in the conference, which will consist of four panel presentations dealing with the Economics of Conflict and Cooperation, Central America and Mexico, Brazil and Cuba. A reduced student registration fee of S10 includes a luncheon in the Ibis cafeteria featuring as guest speaker Luigi Einaudi, Staff Director of the Bureau of Interamerican Affairs in the State Department. "Llnlike other conferences of this nature, which are usually held downtown, we chose to have it on campus in order to make it available to the maximum number of students and professors," said Dean Moss. Reservations must be made by Monday, Nov. 26 by calling 284-1303. The presentations made by conference participants will form the basis for articles to be published in a special issue of the Journal of In-tcramerican Studies and World Affairs, which will be published in February. Copies of this issue will be reserved upon request at the conference. "The conference will highlight I’lcase turn to page 3/GSIS wroup adds to Ethiopian relief efforts By AHMED SHOREIBAH Hurricane Assistant Mews Editor During the second week of this month, more than a $1,000 was raised at the University of Miami to contribute to the relief efforts currently underway in the African drought-stricken country of Ethiopia. The money was collected from the UM community between Nov. 5 and Nov. 8 by Shepherds International, a philanthropist relief charity founded by UM electrical engineering major Julius Adegu-noyle. According to Adegunoyle, the money will be given to the Red Cross, which will then use it to purchase grain for the Marxist-led nation. 1 he laiiune has been ongoing for several years to date and is now threatening over seven million Ethiopians. Furthermore, armed conflict between Ethiopia and the contiguous nation of Somalia, a rebellion in the Ethiopian province of Eretria, and the often apathetic attitude of the central government have all served to intensify the already bleak situation "I was impressed with the amount raised. I expected apathy |among students]," said Adegunoyle, whose organization, with branches in Nigeria, London. Miami, and Fort Wayne, Ir.d . strives to eliminate homelessness and poverty worldwide At UM, the organization also at- tempts to alleviate some of the problems faced by handicapped •students. Among the services extended to handicapped students by Shepherds International are helping them to take exams and do research for term papers. In the near future, the organization plans to conduct a survey, \v ith the cooperation of Dr Robert Kaufman of the department of politics and public affairs, of the homeless population of Greater Miami. The results of the study will be sent to the state government of F'lorida in the hope that action will he taken to remedy the problem of homelessness in Miami Thanksgiving Break The Miami Hurricane will not print next Friday or Tuesday due to the Thanksgiving holiday. Our next issue will be Nov. 30’ The Hurricane wishes everyone a happy Thanksgiving USBG plans syllabi access By MARY ANNE STEVENS • Hurricane Stall Writer If all goes as planned, undergraduate students will have access to information about spring semester courses as part of a project sponsored by the Undergraduate Student Body Government. But students in the School of Business Administration may have a more difficult time locating readily available sources of information. The dean of the school. Dr Jack R. Börsting, and his faculty members have “reservations about this particular method" of presenting course descriptions to the students. The syllabus is a standard form containing space for teachers to provide course information including: the teacher's name, the department, the basic course content, an examination description — such as, the number of objective and subjective questions included, whether or not quizzes are included — the number of term papers, texts, and additional comments. USBG intends to make it as easy as possible for students to find out as much as they can about a course before they register, in order to help shorten drop-and-add lines the week following registration. According to Alex Tachmes, secretary of the USBG cabinet on academic affairs, 1,750 syllabi were distributed to the different schools, and "overall the schools have been pretty cooperative." Almost 1,000 forms have already been returned. The School of Business, however, has not returned any syllabi Börsting explained the general objections that have led to the overwhelming rejection of the present syllabus form by the School of Business He is interested in keeping the information current, since “exams change; several things change." Also, he said that there is "some concern that courses should not be chosen by examinations given," although he is still interested in getting "as much relevant information to the student" as possible. However, Borsting said that this relevant information should be presented by other means, emphasizing "the issue is not dead, and will be discussed " According to the dean, the subject of the syllabus form was discussed at a meeting Nov 14 with Dr William Lee, executive vice president and provost of the uni-versity “It is rnv understanding that other faculty in other departments felt the same way," Borsting said. "It's not just the School of Business." "Primarily, his opinion and apparently the mindset of the school is that of holding information from the student," said Xavier Cortada, chairman of the USBG senate's academic affairs committee. “When you're trying to hide something there must be something wrong." Cortada said. "Perhaps the school is disorganized or they have a problem with the faculty " He voiced a concern that the second largest undergraduate school might set a precedent of retaining information from the student. Tachmes, who is in charge of operations regarding the syllabi forms, added that other schools all over the country compile information about courses beforehand USBG representatives feel that students should know as much about a course as possible before enrolling, with the underlying logic that if the nature of the course will lead a student to drop it, he should know about it. According to the office of the provost, the matter was referred to the subcommittee of the academic dean, composed of the body of deans, which will meet Nov 28. Subcommittee Chairman Dr Lou Kleinman, also dean of the School of FMucation and Allied Professions, said that he will write a statement on the findings and recommendations of the subcommittee, which will be considered by the provost The collected syllabi should be available on Nov 27 in Room 240, Student Union.
