Moore, an associate professor ol finance, succeeds at what he does every time ? he gets a tense Masters of International Business class to laugh. On the final day of the semester last year, one of his classes gave him a standing ovation He stood there with a blush and i sense of achievement, bending ir acceptance. The ovation is only one of the kudos he has won. Moore's excellence in teaching has been recognized year after year. The awards ie include the Alfred G. Smith Jr Award in Teaching from USC ir 1988 and the Distinguished Teach' ing Award for the MIBS Prograrr * in 1991. Moore said he is thankful to his students for teaching him how tc teach.

She left the Carolina Coliseun Saturday night with a clown pen nant, a coloring book and memo ries of a night out when it was OF to act like a kid again. "It's a lot of fun. I go ever year," Myerson, a Hotel, Restaur ant and Tourism Administratis major, said of the 121st Ringlinj Brothers and Barnum and Baile; Circus, which performs the fina shows of its Columbia stop Mon day at l:3U p.m. and /:3V p.m. When the circus rolls into towi each year, hundreds of college stu dents join the ranks of the familie with young kids out for an eveninj 'esented in an ex- ! y s Lisa Oufresne ! th a hilarious en- || oats and ducks at * V infiling Bros, and S Hp 4 H .ill I inderstands idents' needs The students have very expressive faces. When they are confused, they roll their eyes," he said. "My main objective is that students, especially those not seeking careers in finance, get a fundamental understanding of financial p analysis. They should have the basic skills to understand the tax ' effects of financial decisions. In " fact, finance is a language course," he said. "Grasp of the material can be te" nuous and slippery," he said. "But I guess the attitude in the graduate 1 school should be such that when 1 the ink is dry on the diploma, they ought to think 'I have only begun 5 to learn what I have to learn.' The " course only gives familiarity," he ' said. > A young Ted Moore wanted to be a historian, and then he l dreamed of being a chemist. He - joined the army at the age of 18 i and spent 10 years of his youth in service. The nostalgia of the : Vietnam exnerience remains ) deeply embedded in his mind.

"I was like any other high school kid where I believed that how well you do in school indicated how good a person you were. War changed just that. I worked with men from the lower socio-economic strata, high school drop-outs ? with those whom psychologists call misfits from dysfunctional families. In the circumstances of war, they found comfort and a place and did wonderfully." Moore, 43, is still a oacneior who for a pastime prefers to sail or bicycle.

"It was really scary and cool," she said. The heart-stopping antics of the circus performers are entertaining for freshman Stefanie Wilson now, but it hasn't always been that way. "When I was little, I was so scared the trapeze artists would fall down," she said. Longtime animal trainer Gunther Gabel Williams, who retired last year, wasn't the star of the big top, but the greatest show went on with just as much excitment, Myerson said. "It was kind of weird without him, but at least somebody from his familv is still in thp shnw " Myerson said of Williams' son, ' :" '?? l. ft ?<L r~r ': BiBBl" :i .- ^SSf&SffiH^fe ?

And you might see him cruising in his Volvo. Moore said he finds his job gratifying and that teaching the MIBS class is the best part of his life. He said he believes the key to happiness is getting control of life, largely through knowledge. "The saddest thine would he to look back on a long life and wonder what happened," he said. -S~* ^1 w Uiffli;!
