Ulrich Student Center opens!
▲ ► Finishing touches were underway last week in preparation to open the new Ulrich
Student Center in upper Grace Hall yesterday (Nov. 7). For the first time ever, each student
will have his or her own individual mailbox, which will solve a long-standing student
complaint. The USC includes a deli-bar, Subversions, which will sell sandwiches, gourmet
coffee and pastries. A map of the new facility is on page 4. Stop by to check out the view

Lee Lacocca tells students to get involved
Alumnus Lee lacocca met with the 12 new
lacocca student scholars Nov. 1 while he
was on campus for the lacocca Institute advisory
board meeting. He offered a few words of wisdom to
the students during the luncheon.
"I've learned that the only way to change
something is to get involved," said lacocca. "But
today, young people must make a difference. Sixty or
70-year-olds aren't going to do it. So start Tuesday
(Nov. 8) and vote, and get involved. Do yourselves
and your parents proud.
"I heard this morning that you are the prototypes
for what Lehigh would like to give each student — a
special experience during their four years," he added.
"The first class (of scholars) had summer internships
that were quite diverse, and that's the way it should
be. That's what a university is."
The new student scholars are juniors from all
three undergraduate colleges. They join the 10
seniors who were selected last year. The scholars
meet frequently as a group and individually with an
assigned faculty mentor to work on an independent
project relating to the student's interest and field of
study. During the summer individual internships are
arranged with businesses and non-profit firms.
