Our Men's hockey leam fell to St. Norbert 4-1 last weekend in De Pere, Wis. This ended the frozen four hopes of the team, but it can't take away a greal season and a great run for the Royals. The playoffs started with a trip to the No. 4 ranked team in the nation, River Falls, last Wednesday night for a showdown with the Falcons in Hunt Arena. The team came out to a full crowd, for whal seems like lhe 10th straight game, and goi behind early. The play was even for the rest of the first period, and the Royals went into the locker room down 1-0. The second period came in like a lion with Beihel scoring in the first 30 seconds after face-off on a goal by Bill Menozzi, but went out like a lamb as no other goals were scored. The action moved to the ihird period where halfway through, Benoit Duhamel drove home a rebound that flew past the Falcon goalie. .,,.., ^. . „„ Photo byAndy Kenutis Men s Hockey continued on page 10 Despite the loss freshman goalie, Aaron Damjanovich played an outstanding game. Computer network slowness to improve By Luke Reiter Students and faculty vexed by the recent difficulty of accessing files and infonnation through Bethel's network can breathe easier, according to Bethel's Information Technology Services department. Problems arose when ITS decided to install an additional storage disk to Bethel's main server, giving the server 15 disks in total. According to Bill Doyle, vice president for Information Technology, the complications were foreseen but unavoidable. "We had hoped we wouldn't need to do that until the summer," said Doyle, "but it became important to do that [install the disk] now." "The process of adding lhat disk became complicated," he said. Doyle explained that the process was further slowed by the amount of traffic lhe server experienced during its sensitive acclimating stage. If a virus were to infect a student's computer or hackers attempted to access the system during the acclimating stage, the problems would be felt throughout campus. Unfortunately for ITS, the only alternative would have been to shut out students from using the server entirely until after the installation was complete. This was an inconvenience Doyle said would have been drastically worse. The disk installation came at a particularly crucial time for ITS, as the department is currently in lhe midst of implementing the new Banner database system, a task which brings many of its own unique challenges to the situation. Banner is a type of infonnation system Bethel will use for tasks such as financial aid, housing registration and human resources. It replaces Bethel's previous CARS system. Wilh this in mind, ITS moved forward with the procedure with the intention of addressing the ensuing issues in turn. Most of these setbacks, according to Doyle, were experienced during the pasi week and have been dealt wilh.

The teams are collaborating with various ministry sites and development organizations in serving and reaching oul to poverty-stricken neighborhoods. Locations include: Minneapolis, Minn.; Slidell, La.; Ap- palachia, W.Va.; New Orleans, La.; Chihuahua, Mexico; and Jarabacoa, Dominican Republic. The SMP aims to exemplify the work of Chrisi in Bethel's communiiy by connecting with people and building relationships as a team. Contrary to previous trips, this year's teams focus more on being consistent and solid as a group. "This is more like marriage," said Matt Runion, assistant campus pastor. "We see to it that we both [Belhel community and the institutions] commit. Every year, we will serve as a team. We don't plan on stopping—we're dedicated." Students participating in the missions trips are not only expected to fully commit and serve, but also to immerse themselves in the whole idea of Missions continued on page 2 Forensics team returns from nationals victorious for second straight year By Cory Streeter The forensics team took home a naiional Lille for the second straight year from the National Christian College Forensics Invitational on March 2-3. This year's victory as a leam came in the individual events, where Bethel's cumulative individual score of 347.5 surpassed second place Belmont University by almost 50 points. Last year's team took home the overall sweepstakes title, the combined scores of lhe team's individual and debate events. This year the team placed second in the overall. Though this year's title wasn't in the overall, the individual accomplishments are encouraging. David Maus, senior, said individual success "hasn't been a key feature of our team" in lhe past. The debate portion has been the strength of the team in prior years, he said. Now, Maus said, is lhe first lime the team has done well in everything, even through the novice ranks. Junior David Dickmeyer said there's a lot of promise and potential within the freshman class thai competed this year, and the team looks to be strong in lhe future. With the freshmen placing in individual events like they did ai nationals this year, "I don't see any reason why ihey couldn't do that again," Dickmeyer said.
