Vol vn No. 19/ Monday, February 21,2000
Students gathered around
street preacher Jed Smock Thursday, February 17, at the campus
Free Speech area between Academic and Science Halls. Pastor
Smock paced back and forth on
the wide edge of a cement planter
outside of the main entrance to
Academic Hall and preached to
a raucous crowd about what he
called the evils of smoking, drinking alcohol, lying, homosexuality,
and "whoremongering". "You've
believed the lies of Charles
Darwin. Many of you copulate
like rabbits and love like dogs."
Students alternately heckled
and questioned the preacher. One
student was overheard saying "he
has done too much LSD, " and
another student, Freshman Brian
Sullivan, said, "Let him speak. I
think it's interesting."
The crowd engaged the
preacher in debates and discussions on many topics including
the alleged sexual promiscuity of
fraternity members, and Smock's
beliefs about homosexuality.
When a student yelled out,
"What are you?" Smock yelled
back, "I'm a preacher. Most of
you aren't students; you're party
animals." Diego Aguallion, a TKE
member, challenged the characterization of frat boys as party animals, and asked Smock, "Are you Preacher Jed Smock admonishes a crowd ofCSUSM Students

Ms. Glass asked him, "What
A few students complained to
campus security that the commotion interfered with their classes.
Others shouted at the preacher,
saying he should leave the campus,
and that his presence there violated
the separation of church and state
doctrine.
California State University San
Marcos Free Speech and Public
Assembly P.olicy states:
The University recognizes the right to [sic]
staff, faculty, and students to debate current
issues, to protest policies and to dissent.
While participating in
these activities, individuals are expected to
conduct themselves in
a manner compatible
with the educational
mission of the University, to observe University, CSU, and state
regulations and to be
responsible in their personal behavior.
Associated Students Executive
Director Darlene Willis said, "This
is part of student life; it's Freedom
of Speech. This is showing that
the campus is growing. It probably wouldn't have happened here
four orfiveyears ago."
Smock said he was at University of "California San Diego on
Monday and Tuesday, and at San
Diego State University on Wednesday before turning his focus on
the California State University San
Marcos campus. According to
Pastor Smock, the growth and
notoriety of the CSUSM campus
attracted the attention of an*
acquaintance who said the preacher
should visit here. Smock emphasized that he is a former college
professor from "the University of
Wisconsin" and that he has
preached at over 700 colleges and
universities in the United States
and abroad over the past 25 years.
He currently pastors a non-denominational church in Newark, Ohio,
called the College Community
Church, and is the author of Who
Will Rise Up published by The
Campus Ministry U.S.A..
When a female student challenged Pastor Smock saying that
he belonged at a Christian university that shared his beliefs, Smock
shot back that the students here
"probably don't have the grades
or the money to attend a better
school." Glass told Smock, "I
don't have a specific religion, I
haven't studied any of them to
believe. I am not going to believe
just because others said it was
so." Smock responded by saying,
"Most of you haven't seriously
investigated any religion, so how
can you have faith?"
�2 Monday February 21, 2000
DEAR EDITORS,
On February 11,1 attended the
ICC meeting as a representative of
the CSUSM College Republicans.
Upon arrival, the number of student
clubs present quickly impressed
me; although I didn't count them
I would say that there were over
30 clubs represented at the meeting. Such a diverse group of student organizations active enough to
attend ICC is great! It looks like
CSUSM might be finally gaining
a "campus-life" so to say. To all
the clubs; KEEP UP THE GREAT
WORK!
However, not everything from
the meeting was positive. I was
concerned with the "rules" concerning what a club can be authorized
money for and what they c an't
Example: one club was granted
$400 dollars for posters to advertise
an upcoming event while another
club was refused $200 for T-shirts
to advertise their event. The reason?
Current ASI rules do not allow
money to be used for club use, only
for campus activities. However, as
explained (by the Student Parents
Club, I believe), the T-shirts were
going to be used to promote an oncampus event. The ICC authorized
$400 for posters that will just be
thrown away after the event (money
in the trash) and did not authorize
$200 for T-shirts that could be worn
over and over again. Sounds like
a huge waste to me. What do you
think? I brought this up to the Board
but was quickly advised by the ASI
Executive Director that ASI rules
did not permit allocating money
for T-shirts. The Board, however,
seemed to be split on the issue and
ICC tabled it for the next meeting.
I don't mind funding posters and
other forms of advertisement for
events but I think we should fund all
forms of advertisement. We should
reward clubs who effectively promote their activities and who avoid
trashing their materials after the
event, not punish them. IfASI rules
need to be changed then so be it,
CHANGE THEM! All it will take
is a simple vote by the ASI Board.
ASI claims to be "by the students, for the students." I know
they are by the students but I have
found myselfquestioning more than
once if they are truly for the students. Having said all this, I want
to remind everyone that there will
be ASI elections this semester and
that although these are only student
offices, they are very important.
ASI votes on many issues regarding
campus life (i.e. how to spend your
money, and what student clubs can
and can not do). They have voted to
give themselves Christmas bonuses
(with your money) but won't allocate funds for T-shirts? In the next
ASI election, let's clean house and
replace every member of ASI with
new members that truly are FOR

More Smock Talk: A Different Opinion
Victor Mireles
There are some things that get
people riled. Religion and God are
two of the things that seem to provoke an argument any time they
are discussed in a public forum.
Thursday February 17, 2000, will
go down as the day that one man did
what ASI, clubs or the 10th anniversary celebration failed to do. He got
people to stop what they were doing
and become involved in a group
event.
Pastor Jed SmockfromNewark,
Ohio, preached for several hours on
subjects as diverse as life, death,
homosexuality and a myriad of other
issues that often push peoples' buttons. What I saw were crowds willing to mix it up with a man whose
beliefs were unshakable. Some said
that he was "ignorant," while others
said that they "did not understand."
Others seemed visibly angry at what
DEAR EDITORS,
On behalf.ofmyselfand all other
students who are stuck in a busy
but monotonous schedule, I would
like to thank Mr. Jed Smock and his
associates for coming to our campus
and engaging with us in debate.
The conversation was passionate and engaging (although I only
stayed for a portion of it). The last
time that there was a campus event
with nearly as much passion was the
Roger Hedgecock show, but even
that was subdued compared to this
seemingly spontaneous event.
he said, and, as one person put it,
"He is a zealot who has no business
being here."
What all these individuals fail
to see is that he did have the right
to be on campus. I will not defend
his views, but I will say that no one
has to like what he said. We live
in an open society and in this society we must be tolerant of people
who speak with a loud mouth. The
only reason this circus took place
was that WE gave him a forum.
People have the right to speak
but they do not have the right to be
heard. I say to all those who hated
the guy and were angered that you
could have been rid of him if you
simply had ignored him. People like
him, both on the far right and left,
need us to pay attention. Without
us they ate powerless and have no
venue. With us, people like him are
made to look important when in
reality they have nothing to say.
The level of discourse in America often looks like this with people
shouting and no one listening. Pastor
Jed did not want to convert anyone.
He wanted us to listen. And for that
we are guilty of playing into his
hands. I hope that in the future we
take the time to stop and think about
how we feel when we are confronted
with something that bothers us to
such an extent.
I hope that the next time we
are confronted with a person, who
wishes to stir tilings up in such a
manner, we pause. We should pause
to ask the person what he or she is
doing. To make things interesting
we should agree with him or her or
question their sense of importance.
Otherwise, we should do the next
best thing and ignore the person,
move on and enjoy Pleasantville.
Mr. Smock's courage and conBeyond the content of the

symbolic of the trinity.
Mr. Smock's elevated stance on
the wall was a simple and classic
oratory convention that reminded
me of America's long and proud
public speaking tradition. The crowd
also grouped into a classic formation
shaped like a horseshoe around the
speaker with an opposition champion stepping forward to help speak
for a large portion of the crowd.
I would like to extend an open
invitation to Mr. Smock, and any
other individual or organization who
would like to stimulate such interest and entertainment on campus,
to return to CALIFORNIA STATE
UNIVERSITY SAN MARCOS.
Thank you.

Call for Tokens, Artifacts, and Significant Objects
The Women's Studies Department, in cooperation with the CSUSM library is arranging a display cabinet in the library in celebration of Women's Herstory Month
{March). There is current research exploring the connection between women's history, women as caretakers of objects and women's writing- suggesting the usefulness of mounting a display of such meaningful artifacts. Student, Stephanie Sullivan, is acting as curator.
You (and anyone you know who may be interested) are invited to submit objects
that mean something to you, along with a card explaining what the item is, and the
meaning behind it. Items should be relatively small. We would also like a picture of
you and perhaps the person associated with the object. There will be a possibility of
filming interviews to create a lasting visual herstory.
The case is good sized, locked and secure. There is a further possibility of displaying needlework, i.e. stitchery, quilting, etc. More information will be provided to
interested parties. Please get in touch with Stephanie, if you have any ideas, contributions, or reactions. Stephanie can be reached at momers@pacbell.net
We hope to make this a beautiful and poignant display. Thank you. .
