ENTERTAINMENT p. 18 Check out the Year in Review for a recap of 2005’s best movies. Jessica Frizen News Editor Students heading abroad this Winter Term were met with a string of bad weather on the East Coast. What resulted were flight delays, missed flights and a load of lost luggage. It started for some students on Jan. 2, when Independence Air announced that it was declaring bankruptcy. They canceled all flights after Jan. 5. This meant all students who were able to take Independence Air on their first domestic flight had to find another flight back. That night, faculty members of the “Conducting Business in the Pacific Rim” class missed their international flight out of Newark, due to weather and air traffic delays. The next day, people keeping up with the study abroad travels were glad to learn that seven classes made it safely to their destina tions, with the only problem being some missing luggage. Students traveling on Jan. 4 were not so fortunate. One student could not make the international flight to Peru and arrived later than the rest of the class. The same situation happened for six students headed to Greece and a student in the New Zealand Business class. See WEATHER p. 5 SPORTS p. 22 Get to know the new Athletic Director, Dave Blank.
