STUDENT ACTIVITIES

Constructing fun times for all

Studying, taking tests, writing research papers and going to
classes, is not the only reason why students attend Lynn. A college
experience encompasses m ore than just academics. It requires
FUN!

Breaking away from the stress of school and finding your inner
child, is very easy thanks to Student Activites. This years theme, Play
The Game, offered a variety of game shows throughout the year.
Other activities included weekend trips, leadership weekend
retreats, free movie nights, cruises, mid-night bowling, a concert, a
spring break trip, comedy clubs, and trips to all the South Florida
sporting events... plus much morel

Dedicated to 25 years of excellence

Twenty-five years ago, Greg Malfitano entered the College of Boca Raton as a freshman not knowing that this cam-
pus was destined to be his home. Throughout the years he evolved from the Director of Residence Life to his current
position, Vice President for Student Services and Administration . He has played a key role in the University's gmwth
and a ccomplishments.

The 1998 Excalibur Yearbook staff dedicates this edition to Greg Malfitano because of his hard work, caring per-
sona, involvement and his desire fo r this school to be the best it can be.

On behalf of the yearbook staff and the entire campus, we would thank him for the last twenty-five years.

CONSTRUCTING A GREEK
SYSTEM

Building new traditions

Greek Council was busy this year building campus and commu-
nity involvement. They kicked off the year with a successful fall rush
taking over 20 new members.
The Greeks set many new traditions this year including the Apple
Polishing ceremony which recognized outstanding faculty and staff
and the first Greek Week. They also raised money for various char-
itable organizations including the Center for Missing and Exploited
Children. The greatest success of the year was the addition of Lynn's
national Sorority.

Greek Council also continued with old traditions, such as the
fourth annual fraternity football challege and the second annual Jail
and Bail w hich raised money for the Boca Raton Animal Shelter.

ACADEMICS

Student blueprint for success

Academic success is the driving force for all college students.
Thanks to our dedicated and hardworking faculty and staff mem-
bers, students have the opportunity to receive individualized
instruction. High energy professors and creative teaching methods
make students look forward to attending classes.

At large schools the students are known by their I.D. numbers. It
is rare that you find a university that has professors who get to know
each student by their name and who they are as individuals.

ACADEMICS

A lthough sometimes many of
us forget, academics is the rea-
son w hy we went to college!
Lynn prides itself in small class
size with individualized atten-
tion. Here students are known
by name, not by number. It is
not uncommon for professors,
such as Dr. Glines, to call their
students from class asking
where they are.

The faculty put forth great
effort into molding students into
confident, smart, hard working
young adults. Papers, projects,
presentations, internships and
exams are the tools used to pre-
pare students for the real world.

Lynn offers a diverse selection
of majors. Business, Education,
Hospitality and International
Communications are among
the most popular, but Lynn
offers everything from Funeral
Services to Fashion Marketing,
even Aviation.

STUDENT LIFE

The best years of your life

Life on campus allows students to make a home away from home.
Between academics and participating in sports and campus orga-
nizations students often have trouble finding enough time to p lay.

Because of Lynn's South Florida location, students can be found
hanging out in South Beach, Downtown Ft. Lauderdale, and of
course the beach. There is always something to do. The great
weather and night life make it hard to stay indoors on the weekends.
After a long week of classes there is nothing better than going out
with your friends for a night of excitement or just relaxing.

FALL AND SPRING ATHLETICS

Training for success

I n its short history, Lynn athletics have built a very respectable program. resh on, Va erle Cardinale plays th1 p<
Hosting n u merous na tional championship teams as well as many student/athletes, it is lions: pitche r, cote e r and firs base.

easy to say that Lynn sports have created an extremely competitive stature. Like any col-
leg e program , change is ine vitable.

The athletic program recently introduced men's and women's cross country as its newest
fall sport. The additional sport g ives Lynn a total of 13 sports. Arnold Leshin w ill be the head
coach for both teams.

Lynn also adop ted two sports for the varsity program this year. Women's volleyball in
the fall of '97 and Women's softball in the spring of '98. Lindy Binns was named head coach
for both sports.

The athletic department has made its move toward the growth of this University. Lynn
athletics have proven to be productive and very competitive in their short history
as a collegiate program.

Building a foundation is a great deal like 'ditch digging.' It's not
the most glamorous job and is particularly difficult to share with
others when all they see is a rough hole in the ground that you are
pouring money and energy into.

However, we have now completed phase one of our project.
EvE;n though it felt at ;1es that we were digging with a teaspoon,
the team stuck throua h the weather and though times to 'get it
