The UM Counseling Center will present a workshop from 1 p.m. to 3 p.m. Dec. 2 at the Center, Building 21R, to teach strategies for reducing anxiety during the exams period. Stephen Gill said he will present various anxiety-reducing techniques at the workshop. “There are a variety of things [to be covered],” Gill said. “One is to talk to [students] about some of their inner things during testing, when anxiety is a problem. We refer to it as 'self-talk.“ “Self-talk” are the negative things people feel and say to themselves when taking tests. The students who can get the most of the workshop, said Gill, are students who are well-prepared and know the material, but they blank out when it comes to the actual taking of the exam. Techniques that will be demonstrated during the workshop include how to use deep relaxation responses to reduce anxiety, teaching students how to let the stress and anxiety go. Space is limited. Seats can be reserved by calling 284-5511. —T.J. KATZ PARKING PROTECTION OVER WINTER BREAK Students can avoid holiday thieves by parking in the guarded parking garage over the Winter Break.

The School of Communication will host “Summits Past and Present,” a half-day workshop designed to help journalists who will be covering tne Summit of the Americas. The session will take place Dec. 7 in Gusman Concert Hall at 1:30 p.m. “Well be looking at what was and was not accomplished at Punta del Este,” said James Nelson Goodsell, Knight Chair at the School of Communication. Goodsell added that past summits had been sponsored by the Organization of American States. This is the first one sponsored by the United States. Aside from President Bill Clinton, some other democratically-elected heads-of-state that will attend the summit are Haitian President Jean-Bertrand Aristide, Canadian Prime Minister Jean Chretien, Jamaican Prime Minister Percival J. Patterson, Mexican President Ernesto Zedillo Ponce de Leon, Nicaraguan President Violeta Chamorro and Peruvian President Alberto Fujimori. According to Goodsell, who is the moderator on the panel of the journalists who attended the last Summit of the Americas, he and the other journalists who are participating were at the Uruguay summit in 1967. At the time, Goodsell worked for the Christian Science Monitor. The panelists include Juan de Onis, who covered the 1967 summit for the New York Times, William Montalbano, who was working for The Miami Herald at the time, Carl Migdail, who covered the summit for U.S. News and World Report, Frank Manitzas, CBS news correspondent at the summit, Robert Cox, who was the “ditor of the English-language paper Buenos Aires Herald and Don Bohning, Latin America editor for The Miami Herald. Goodsell said the program may be a way for UM to gain recognition, and said he encourages all to attend. “It’s an opportunity for us to make ourselves better known,” Goodsell said. “I think the afternoon session will be fun as well as informative,” he said. In addition, the North-South Center will hold an all-day conference on Dec. 8, from 8:30 a.m. to 4 p.m., in the third-floor conference room at the North-South Center. The conference, which is co-sponsored by the Interamerican Press Association, will deal with issues on the summit agenda. The panel is made up of experts, business representatives and journalists, said Leda Perez, graduate assistant to Steve Stein, director of the Summit Task Force at the North-South Center. “This is a very unique opportunity ... especially for the intellectual community, of which theUniversity is a part,” Perez said. Perez also said attendance for students is free. Some students said they were skeptical about what a hemispheric conference could accomplish. Some said they did not think that a pan-American economic union was possible. “Caribbean leaders have been talking for manv years about an economic federation, which hasn’t happened,” said Troy Jennings, a graduate student from Trinidad. “If a small cohesive region can’t sort out something as complicated as an economic federation, how can a large group of diverse leaders?” “However, good luck to them,” Jennings added. “It would be good if they succeeded.” Still others said they felt the Summit was an inconvenience. “They’re closing down streets ... for a bunch of presidents,” said junior Ernest Abuin, member of the Federation of Cuban Students. “They should’ve held it in some other city, like Washington, D.C “ ion rer» attendants of the Summit of the Americas UM will play its part in the summit by hosting journalistic programs.

Travel options: Fly or Ride King Features Syndicale By CHRIS MERRITT Hurricane Staff Writer As many students head home for the Winter Break, they will board planes, trains and automobiles to their vacation and home destinations. Elena Pupl, branch manager of Carlson Wagon-Lit Travel, said many students have been booking their Winter Break trips recently. ‘Tt’s been really busy the last few weeks. We’ve had a lot of students coming in to check prices and book tickets,” Pupl said. “Most of the really good fares require a 14-day advance purchase where the person stays over a Saturday night and for less than 30 days.” The travel agency, which is located on the first floor of the UC, is open from 8:30 a.m. to 5:30 p.m. until Dec. 22 for the students’ use. It will reopen Jan. 3. Pupl said she encourages students to book their plans now, because it is more difficult to find cheap airfares. “We have the capability to shop around and obtain the best price for the student,” Pupl said. Students planning to travel by air should remember the airlines have “Blackout Days” on Dec. 21-23, 26-27 and Jan. 2-3. On those days, the lower price fares will not be available and often the ticket price can be hundreds of dollars higher. This includes fares to Boston and New York. Some of the most popular markets, according to Pupl. Students also have the option of travelling by train on Amtrak. Yvonne Adams, reservations sales assistant at Amtrak Chicago Reservations, said students can go to the Miami Amtrak station, located at 8303 N.W. 37th Ave., and board a train to connect them with the Amtrak system. Students may find the best train ticket prices are unavailable, since those tickets are usually gone two months before the departure date.
