Davis Signs Bill
Affecting CSUSM

California voters passed that
bond measure in November
2002.
By using a different source
of financial support and fee rev
enue bonds, Davis proposed the
funding to complete this proj
ect in a $651 million economic
-stimulus package, which gave
legislative approval to place
the education bond before the
voters. This would allow facil
ity construction to begin imme
diately and be completed eight
to 12 months earlier than previ
ously scheduled.
According to Russell
Decker, director of planning,
design, and construction for
CSUSM, work on the building
will begin immediately in the
affected departments.
Although administrators at
Cal State San Marcos may
have been ecstatic, some stu
dents felt more concerned than
delighted.
“I hoped that the commit
tee involved with the planning
would provide us with a formal
presentation that would inform
us about the future plans of this
college and how it would bene
fit its students and faculty,” said
Peter Ulatan, Service Sector
Management business major.
“I didn’t even know our campus
received that amount of money,
until I read The North County
Times.”
Likewise, Judy Brown,
HTM business major, added,

Students Tackle Colonialism and Revolt in Regional Competition
By VICTORIA B. SEGALL
For The Pride
When Ted Burgos-DeStephanis and Curt Eichperger wrote
research papers on the last Afri
can king and European colo
nialism in Haiti, ' respectively,
they probably didn’t think their
research papers would be read by
anyone other than their profes
sors. But the two history majors
made their marks in history this
past April, when they presented
those research papers to hun
dreds of college students and
professors from Southern Cali

The two took part in the

Marymount University, where
only 32 students from Southern
California universities were
chosen to present their papers.

“Colin Powell’s decision to

on Tuesday, April *30 at the
CSUSM-sponsored lecture at
the California Center for the

the lecture was approximately
$30,000.
After a brief introduction
from CSUSM president Alex

unimportance of global warm

�Hurdling Through the Pain

Jason E. Williams placed a
respectable second place in the
400-meter hurdle at the 74th
annual Mount Sac Invitational in
Walnut, California. Only the top
25 runners in the entire county
are invited to race on the second
day of (Sunday, April 21) this
American classic. His mark
of 52.5 was the fastest time of
any sophomore that competed.
“I didn’t do as well as I should
have; it’s still a good time but
not for me,” said Williams.
There is not an athlete in
history that has been absolutely
immune to the threat of being
hurt or injured. Unfortunately,
the same can be said for track
and field star Williams. Last
Saturday at the UCSD Open
Meet, Williams pulled a ham
string, which has been hurting
him for some time. “Its all part
of the sport; I was running very
fast and the weather was very
cold,” Williams said.
Williams trains at the San
Marcos High School gym and is
seeking assistance from a phys
ical therapist off-campus to ice
and perform ultrasounds treat
ments on his pulled hamstring.
“Just like the engine of a
car that shows signs of needing
to be fixed, my hamstring was
showing signs, and then my
engine finally blew out,” said
Williams. Nevertheless, this has
not stopped him from attending
practice to give moral support to
the rest of the team. “I have to
remain positive and not going to
quit even though I’m hurt.”
Williams still plans to
compete in the National Associ
ation of Intercollegiate Athletics
Nationals in Kansas at the end
of May. “I have worked too hard
to stop now,” Williams insists.

Algae,
photosynthetic
organisms that occur in most
habitats, are a plant species that
seem so small and insignifi
cant to our lives, but surpris
ingly have a huge effect on the
world’s ecosystem and econ
omy, according to Dr. Robert
Sheath, provost and vice pres
ident for Academic Affairs at
Cal State San Marcos. Sheath
gave a presentation entitled
“The Scum of the Earth: The
Good, Bad, and Ugly of Algae”
on Thursday as part of
CSUSM’s Arts & Lectures
series.
“Since I studied algae, I
became very interested in the
subject and my main goal of
the presentation was to allow
others to take on the same inter
est,” said Sheath. Many profes
sors from CSUSM attended the
lecture with an open mind to
learn more about its uses and
effects.
Sheath is an esteemed psy
chologist who obtained his
Ph.D. in Botany at the Univer
sity of Toronto in 1977. He has
served as dean, professor and
chair at numerous universities.
Sheath received the Darbaker
Prize from the Botanical Soci
ety of America in 1997 and
was nominated for the Teaching Excellence Award at the Uni
versity of Rhode Island. He is
also the editor of three books.

though the university is not
informing us with the proper

colonialism in Africa. “I took
a different view of the situa
tion,” said Burgos. “I focused
on the king and his thoughts and
actions, whereas people usually
take on the perspective of Euro
pean colonialism.”
King Lobengula Ndebele'
held the last three founding states,
according to Dr. Alyssa Gold
stein Sepinwall, a history profes
sor and adviser for CSUSM’s Phi
Alpha Theta chapter. “Ted tried
to examine the king’s relation
ship with the British people, and
did an impressive job of sum
marizing the literature on King
Lobengula, offering an interpre
tation of why he ultimately fell.”
Sepinwall approved and
selected Burgos and Eichperger’s
papers for the competition. Stu
dents who participated were free
to write on anything historical,
and papers that were selected for
theTcompetition were presented
at Loyola Marymount in a setup
similar to a professional histori
cal conference. “Except that it’s
for students,” said Burgos.
In his paper, “What to Do,
Where to Go? Decisions for the
White People of Santo Domingo
After the Insurrection of the
Blacks,” Eichperger delved into
the aftermath of the revolutions
against European colonizers in
Santo Domingo (the former name
of Haiti).
“He showed how one group
that had all this power and under
went all these transitions dealt
with losing power after the slaves
revolted and gained power,” said
Sepinwall. Eichperger had writ
ten the paper in Sepinwall’s His
tory 301 class last fall, in which
students focused on relations
between the U.S. and Haiti at the
end of the 18th century.
“Both papers were very well
researched and well written, and
they presented with a lot of
poise,” said Sepinwall.

�Beulah: The Coast
is Never Clear
By JAMIEKO LANE
Pride Staff Writer
Small shows seem to be the
most fun, and last Tuesday at The
Casbah, a local San Diego club,
was no exception when Beulah, a
San Francisco-based band, head
lined the show.
With
a
wall of black
diner-like seat
cushions
behind them,
which is used to keep the noise
low for the surrounding residen
tial neighborhood, Beulah began
with great enthusiasm. When
asked to describe the type of
music they play, Bill Swan, gui
tarist, trumpet player and one of
the singers of the band, said, “I
would definitely classify us as
rock n’ roll, but you’ll have to
make up your own mind on the
matter.”
The band is definitely the
Beatles of the 21st century, with
its upbeat rhythms mixed with
fun, sixties-like lyrics. But the
intense guitar overlay, synthe
sizer and the awesome trumpet
action make it feel like a defi
nite solid part of our generation hot to mention the hundred or so,
bouneing, lively, twenty-some
things that crowded the small
dance floor.
Despite the annoying feed
back that occurred a few times
during the show, the band gave
a spectacular performance and
kept everyone excited. When fin
ished, the band was encored and
played a few more songs, ending
at close to two in the morning,
a stan
dard at
t he
REVIEW
Casbah.
When asked how the band
started, Swan stated, “It was
actually an accident. It was a side
project that somehow worked.”
The band slowly came together
in the fall of 1997, but got off the
floor in 1999. Beulah has toured
the U.S., Europe and Canada and
is on a coast-to-coast tour of
the U.S. The tour, entitled “The
Coast is Never Clear,” started in
Denver, CO., sold out in L.A.,
and is ending on May 4 in its
hometown of San Francisco.
On April 16, Beulah made a
guest appearance on The Conan
O’Brien Show, a sign that they
are quickly moving their way
up. Beulah is a band that will
definitely leave its mark on the
music industry.
CSUSM Play Performed at Vista Playhouse
By MARTHA SARABIA
News Editor
“Dona Criba,”: a Cal State
San Marcos school play, which
premiered last December, was
performed at Vista’s AVO Play
house on Friday and Saturday.
What started as a school play
has now become a play for
the community of the North
County area, especially for the
Spanish speaking community.
Almost all of the actors
and actresses in this play are
CSUSM students who have
formed a theater group called
Dionysus. According to Carlos
von Son, CSUSM professor of
Spanish, the group decided to
name the group after the Greek
god, Dionysus, who was the
god of theater. Besides stu
dents whose first language is
Spanish, this theater group also
includes students whose first lan
guage is English, as well as other
languages.
Actresses of two of the tnain
characters expressed their enthu
siasm at being part of this play.
Lucinda Bernardino, a Liberal
Studies and Spanish major,
added, “We’re very happy to be
in this play with Mr. Von Son.”
Soledad Acuna, a Spanish major,
said, “I feel very proud, some
thing that makes me feel very
important even though I don’t
make anything financially. It is
something that makes me feel
proud; it’s going to be forever,
for me, for my family, and for the
rest of my descendants.”
Although the students are not
receiving any credit for doing
this, many are happy to just be a
part of it. Bernardino said, “It’s
been a great experience ... None
of us are getting any credi^for
school, none of us have been
forced to do it, we just do it
have Spanish entertainment,”
Bernardino said. Von Son also
said, “With the large population
of Spanish-speaking immigrants;
it’s really a need for this type of
event.”
Due to the interest of stu
dents in theater, von Son said,
“We’re in the process of draft-
A Scene from “
Dona Criba ”
Pride Photo/Martha Sarabia
because we like it a lot.” Acuna
added, “We really enjoy it.”
Von Son said, “I feel so proud
of my students. They have done
a beautiful job. They are volun
teering their time and so much
work and effort.” Both also said
that they never thought that after
performing “Dona Criba” for
CSUSM they would perform it
to the outside community. How
ever, von Son was asked to bring
this play to the community by
Vista’s AVO Playhouse.
“It’s also to contribute to
our own people who don’t really
Respected.
ing a proposal needed to offer
a Spanish theater minor. Hope
fully, one day we can have a
minor in theater in Spanish ... It
would be aligned with the goals
of the university, with our mis
sion statement. It would be a cel
ebration of diversity.”
About 130 and 145 people
went to see the play on Friday
and Saturday respectively. Dona
Criba, written by von Son, is
about the impact of technology
in a small town in Mexico, and
how this affects the lives of its
people.

�S top Com plaining and Look in the Mirror
By Erik Roper
For The Pride
This past semester, the stu
dents of Cal State San Marcos
elected me to be ASI Corporate
Secretary for next year. It was
highly encouraging to know that
out of the 6600+ students here at
CSUSM, there were at least 633
who thought I’d do a good job.
To those of you who voted, I say,
“much respect, and thank you for
supporting democracy (no doubt
it was all those people.with flags
on their cars down in the parking
lot.”) But that’s not why I’m writ
ing this piece.
After the election, one of
my colleagues, who also ran for
office, told me something that
made my jaw drop. Apparently,
there were more than a few stu
dents that had talked to this other
prospective student leader during
the campaigning period before
the election, about me, and said
that they didn’t want to see me
elected because they felt I rep
resented an undesirable element.
An undesirable element that they
felt there was already too much
of around here and that they
didn’t want to see more of on this
campus. My colleague told me
that some students who talked to
him felt that I seemed too radi
cally liberal, and they were also
worried that my election might
trigger a fundamental shift in the
political climate of the student
body. He said some students were
saying (with obvious dismay in
their voices) things like, “. . .next
thing you know this place is
going to be crazy and crawling
with student activists, like Berke
ley.” When I heard that, I had to
laugh.
Believe me; the last thing I
would ever want is for CSUSM
to turn into another Berkeley.
Just think about how horrible
that would be. Who wants to
be surrounded by a bunch of
socially conscious students dis
satisfied with the status quo who
passionately care about the world
they live in and who actually do
stuff to try and make it better?
Not me, that’s for sure. No really,
I’m serious, I think it’s so much
better that we are on a campus
that is the exact opposite. For
me, there’s nothing more amus
ing than to hear many o f my
fellow students bitch and moan
about how this place sucks so bad
and then watch the vast majority
of them do absolutely nothing
to try and make it better. You
know, lately the weather’s been
kind of chilly, but that’s no prob
lem because with all the hot
air that blows out of many stu
dents’ mouths, I can wear shorts
and T-shirts 24-7. But actually, I
shouldn’t be so hard on my fellow
students because sometimes, just
for kicks, I blow hot air myself.
For instance, I recently sent
an e-mail to the Inter-Club
Council(ICC) list-serve in which
I ripped on The Pride in brutal
fashion saying, “(The Pride) was
boring, lame, and worst of all,
highly irrelevant.” This statement
angered some people, especially
in light of the fact that, at the
time, I’d done absolutely nothing
this semester to try and make
The Pride better. Since then
I’ve talked with one of the edi
tors, become educated about the
myriad of difficulties faced by
publishing a student paper (one
of the biggest problems being
that they simply just need more
quality student input), commit
ted myself to submitting pieces
to The Pride, and began urging
those I know to do likewise. So, I
guess you could say I’ve learned
a lesson. The lesson being (how
ever cliche) that action speaks
louder (and is a helluva lot more
effective) than words.
A wise person once said,
“Accepting the absurdity of
everything around us is one step,
a necessary experience: it should
not become a dead end. It arouses
a revolt that can become fruit
ful.” In other words, if you see
something around CSUSM that’s
wrong, stupid, inefficient, or just
plain sucks, don’t just complain
about it, DO SOMETHING. It
seems that in our society (and
especially here at CSUSM) a
majority of us have bought into
the notion that we are passive
powerless victims who have to
accept whatever THEY have in
store for us, as if our lives were
meant to be lived as nothing more
than mindless, easily-manipu
lated consumers who have no
choice but to take whatever it
is THEY’re shovelin’. Mindless
Passive Powerless Easily-Manip
ulated Victim Consumers - Is
that how you see yourself? One
of these days I’m going to make
myself a t-shirt that says, “YOU
ARE THEY.”
I often hear fellow students
(and I’ve been guilty of this
myself) saying, “THEY should
offer better food in the Dome.”
or “THEY should provide us with
more fun activities/events on
campus.” or “THEY should make
this place more colorful.” or “The
Pride sucks; THEY should make
it cooler.” or “THEY shouldn’t
make our social security num
bers be our student ID numbers.”
or “THEY should ________ (fill
in the blank).” Wow! THEY sure
seem to have a lot of responsi
bilities. Maybe the reason THEY
weren’t able to attend to all these
suggestions is because THEY
were busy with all their other
obligations. In the meantime,
what were you doing?
Yeah, I know the story;
you’ve got a family, a job, your
sanity to maintain, and somehow
you still have to make time to
get some of this school nonsense
done. So, you ask, “When would
I possibly have time to do some
thing about these things I see that
need changing?” I don’t know.
That’s something you’re going
to have to answer for yourself.
What I can tell you is that you’re
not powerless and you don’t have
to settle for the status quo if
you don’t want to. Another wise
person said, “Sentiment without
action is the ruin of the soul.”
Think The Pride sucks? Start
contributing to the publication.
Think the food in the Dome
sucks? Go talk to the manager
Melanie and ask her what you
have to do to get some changes
rolling. Think there should be
more cool events for students on
campus? Go talk to the people
in SRL and ASI and ask how
you can help out (What do you
REALLY think about the new
logo THEY’re proposing to adopt
without student input). Think
CSUSM shouldn’t use your SSN
as your student ID number? Go
ask someone in the admissions
office (right next to the rectangle
of trees in Founders’ Plaza) for
the form you have to fill out to
get a new and improved, random,
computer-generated student ID
number, which should take you
all of five minutes. Think smok
ers shouldn’t smoke in the U-Hall
stairwell? Go talk to facilities and
ask if they’ll move the ashtrays
and put up no smoking signs in
the stairwell, and if they refuse
you might consider getting a peti
tion started or getting the sup
port of the student health center.
No one student can fix every
thing that needs fixin’ here at
CSUSM. There are a handful of
students around here who try.
But the sad truth of the matter is
that we won’t accomplish much
unless more students contribute.
Every time you complain but
don’t do anything to try and make
whatever it is you’re complaining
about better, not only are you not
helping, but you’re actually part
of the problem. If you want -to
be even more honest with your
self, you’ll realize that every time
you say, “THEY suck . . with
out any action, what you’re really
saying is that, “I suck . . . ”
because we all have the power
to change the world we live in
(especially here in the CSUSM
microcosm). So, next time you
feel like going off on one of those

Inside The Mind of a Conservationist, Clarity While Surfing
By Ray Hines
For The Pride
The environment has a finite
amount to give to support life.
The same water that I surfed in
this morning could have been
the water that Cleopatra bathed
in centuries ago. I believe I am
connected to all other things on
Earth because I am made up of
the same substances. Very few
elements make up a living being,
and the fact that we consider the
living to have power oyer the
non-living assumes that we are
more important. That assump
tion couldn’t be further from the
truth.
All living, or biotic, compo
nents of this planet depend on
the non-living, or abiotic, com
ponents to provide vitamins and
minerals to sustain life. I think
of the wolves walking around in
Northern Minnesota looking for
a place to deliver their spring
pups deserve the same right to
a home as a Seattle e-commerce
executive. I feel my role on this
planet is to do as little harm as
I can to my living counterparts
and try to use as little of my
non-living counterparts as le a n
to ensure future generations the
same necessities. I also feel that
mankind is an important and
exceptional creature. We have
the capacity and intelligence to
destroy and create. I think it is
man’s job to figure out how to
become self-sufficient and in this
day of technology and organi
zation, this ability is going to
come through hardship and force.
I have confidence that man can
procure his own future, but he
has to be willing to accept the
responsibility and challenge of
doing so.
Living things can either
defend themselves or they cannot.
As it says in the Bible, “What
you do to the least of your broth
ers that you do unto me.” It is
linked to the Native American
belief, “Mother Earth, Sister Sky,
Brother Eagle, and Father Moon.”
Each of these things is considered
whole and by giving them names,
we have given them recognition.
This relates to both relationships
between people and relationships
between things, I have studied a
lot of science, and it even falls
true in chemical reactions, there
is always a factor that is limiting
and that key factor decides the
fate of the overall reaction.
I take time to think of ways
to behave in an environmentally
friendly way. I carry a Vi liter
water bottle and fill it as many
as eight times a day. This assures
me that I am drinking enough
water as well as reducing eight
cups worth of litter from the land
fill or eight containers worth of
recycling. I drink water because
it is easiest for my body to digest.
Also, it can be consumed with
out much packaging, commer
cials, or excessive transportation.
I know it’s just water we’re talk
ing about, but a lot of thought
can go into such a simple thing.
I try to buy nature-friendly, wellbuilt products (even if they cost
a little more) to comply with the
“reduce, reuse, recycle” strategy.
Quality products last longer (or
stay out of the landfill longer,
however you look at it) and need
to be replaced less.
I have taken* several courses
in the past few semesters that
are related directly to environ
mental studies. I have looked for
ward to political science courses
to help me (a biology student)
understand how our government
policies are formed. Also, I have
taken voting very seriously since
I turned 18. I try to research
thoroughly before I vote. I have
become a member of KPBS
public radio and listen daily in
an effort to stay in tune with
what is going on politically in my
world. I don’t really like the cur
rent political system, but I under
stand nothing is easy when a lot
of people are involved and that
allows me to have patience and
hope for our future.
I don’t watch television at
home. I have a VCR that I use
to watch videos and documenta
ries I can get from the library
on topics I am interested,in. I
haven’t watched regular TV or
cable for over 10 years on a reg
ular basis. This has allowed me
more time to be outside, enjoying
the planet that I try to consider
in my daily actions. It gives my
friends and I time to enjoy each
other and discover our many tal
ents, namely playing music and
sports. I think it is important
to know that you are a special
person and to recognize why you
are that way. When it rains and
runoff pollutes the ocean where I
surf, it affects my whole person.
When I hear about some environ
mental catastrophe somewhere
that too leaves me unsettled.
I feel like we are all con
nected, so a problem in one
geographic location doesn’t just
affect the people there, it affects
everybody. I, too, affect the envi
ronment with everything I do.
I breathe out carbon dioxide. I
eat of the biomass that makes
up resources for other, more effi
cient animals. I am a poor heat
conserver. I have to eat from a
higher tropic level to gain energy
to keep myself warm. I drive a
car like everyone else, and our
exhaust emits tons of pollutants
into the air. I demand light when
it’s dark outside, burning coal
for my electricity. I buy things
that come in non-renewable, nondegradable packaging because
they “just come that way.” I flush
my self-generated waste down
the toilet and off to some energy
intensive treatment plant before
it ends up in the very water I
am swimming in. I can’t think of
very many things I do that don’t
affect the environment, except
perhaps sitting in a quiet place
and enjoying it.
I traded my gas guzzling,
machine-oriented sports in for
nature friendly ones. I used to
dirt bike, water-ski, snowmobile,
street bike, and those sorts of
things, but now I cross-country
ski, snowboard, bicycle, kayak,
windsurf, sail, and surf for excite
ment. I also teach adults to sail
and windsurf. In my lectures, I
point out the environmental ben
efits of them choosing a winddriven sport for their recreation.
I encourage them to turn other
people on to the sport and request
that they all complete a Cal Boat
ing test. This test is actually a
way of sending a message to Sac
ramento that people in Southern
California are concerned about
their safety and the condition of
their bays and waterways. Each
time a test is sent to the capitol,
to the Department of Boating
and Waterways, it says one more
person is concerned. I feel that
these small changes in myself
and the way that my position as
a teacher can influence people’s
decisions has helped to better the
environment in some small way.
Just a thought...

�When in Dome, Recycle as the Domans Do
By RICHIE MANN
For The Pride
I’m a concerned student who
eats in the Dome, where you eat,
respect others and (hopefully)
recycle your soda cans,' plastic
bottles, glass bottles, and news
papers. You can help yourself, the
environment, and me. You can
save energy, produce money, and
reduce the trash that is dumped
into our landfills. Your con
science has been nagging you:
“Environment, environment, I
know there’s some kind of crisis.
What can I do?” Start here, where
you eat.
Here are a few suggestions:
How many napkins do you
need? A big pile or one? When
you take a pile, they fall on the
floor and then are disposed of,
unused. Also, in the Dome’s out
side area, the wind blows the
unused napkins all over, making
an unsightly mess - not a fun
place for you and your guests to
dine. What a waste of money and
of the trees that the napkins are
made from. What can you do?
Take ONE napkin.
Yes, you can recycle, right
here. We are fortunate that Cal
State San Marcos has placed
recycling containers inside and
outside the Dome, within easy
reach. It’s convenient to put your
aluminum cans and plastic bot
tles, glass bottles and your news
papers (or almost any kind of half-eaten tuna sandwich or your

to the recent debate over cig

ing, “You don’t racially profile,
of course, unless someone with a
beard and turban happens to be
standing near you at an airport.”
Safire had begun his lecture
with less incendiary topics, dis
cussing his history as a lexicog
rapher and his 20-year stint as
a Times columnist, relating per
sonal anecdotes about his rela
tionships with Barbara Walters,
President Bush, Rice, Sharon and
Powell.
He then spent a good part of
his lecture ruminating about the
state of the nation and the Middle
East after September 11. “What’s
developing now is the president
deciding that he’s got to do some
thing to work with the Saudis
and get them to moderate Arafat,
as he would moderate Sharon.

Sharon is being made out to look
like a monster,” Safire said, “but
he’s trying to make a deal. Most
Americans say, well, if someone
attacks you, you attack back. The
same goes for Israel. The general
feeling is that the Palestinians are
under attack by Israel, but that’s

- we should ask for a declaration
of war before going into Iraq to
do what we did in Germany and
Japan - to introduce democracy
to Iraq. Who knows what might
happen?”
In addition to discussing the
ongoing tension in the Middle
East, Safire openly acknowledged
the need to attend to domestic
policy as well. “Who knew his
[Bush’s] presidency would be a
foreign-policy presidency?” he
said. “We have a president who
came in relatively uninformed
about foreign policy. [Bush] is a
president who’s becoming inun

Pride Editor
CSU faculty members are
working in excess of 50 hours per
week, according to the results of
a recent study. Released on Feb.
20, the study examined changes
in the amount and type of work
being conducted by faculty.
Compared to a similar study
conducted in 1990, the amount
of time spent teaching and stu
dent advising has not increased,
but the amount pf time* spent
on activities outside the class
room has added approximately
two hours per week to faculty
workload.
As quoted in the North
County Times, George Diehr,
California Faculty Association
(CFA) chapter president and
CSUSM College of Business
Administration faculty, said the
findings may be a way for fac
ulty to receive more time off for
research and that CSUSM now

ulty.”
The study attributed the
increase in scholarly activities'
and research to the expansion of
the faculty’s knowledge base and
the addition of younger faculty
members. In addition, the CSU
now has a larger, more complex
student body, new technology,
and a broader social spectrum,
which Contributes to more diverse
and challenging work for fac
ulty.
“CSU faculty members are
hard-working, committed to their
students, engaged in a wide range
of scholarly and creative activ
ities, and [they are] energetic
in reaching into their communi
ties,” said David Spence, CSU
executive vice chancellor and
chief academic officer, in a uni
versity press release.
The study, conducted in 2001,
included 2,547 faculty members
at 22 CSU campuses. Tenuffed
two-thirds of the contributing
participants.
In addition to this study, Ana
lytic Studies designed a survey
to find out how students rate
their college experience. Find
ings indicated that professors
at CSUSM spend a lower than
, average amount of time inter
acting with students outside the
classroom. The disproportionate
amount of time was attributed to
the fact that CSUSM is a com
muter campus, students don’t
stick around to talk, and they go
to work.
The CSU is now in the pro
cess of conducting a similar
survey of tenured and tenuretrack faculty at other universities
around the nation that are com

Jocelyn Brown
I am a biology major and will
be graduating in Spring 2003.
During my four years at Cal
State San Marcos, I have been
actively involved in represent
ing the student voice, advocating
for student’s rights and improv
ing and enriching campus life.
I have three years experience in
ASI and currently serve as your
ASI vice president of External
Affairs.
At this last year I initiated,
coordinated and participated in
many ASI events and programs.
In my capacity as vice president
of External Affairs, I am one
of two representatives from our
campus that sits on the California
State Student Association(CSSA),
which is a statewide student asso
ciation that represents the voice
of 380,000 CSU students to the
board of trustees. I also chair the
ASI External Affairs Committee,
which siphons information from
the statewide level down to the
students at our campus, includ
ing legislation, voter registration,
CSU policies, and campus pride
initiatives. Aside from my role
as vice president, I am also the
vice chair for the University Stu
dent Union Advisory Board and
an active member in the Envi

From my involvement, I have
gained a vast knowledge of ASI
and the university at large. I
believe that this gives me the
ability to transition easily into the

Last Wednesday a power
outage hit Cal State San Marcos.
Students and faculty alike were
left without electricity from 11:15
a.m. to 12:45 p.m.
CSUSM student Jessica
Smith said, “I had to take two of
my exams in the dark. All of the
students gathered by the win
dows or sat under the emergency
hallway lights to take the test.
Out of all the buildings Univer
sity Hall was the worst because
there are hardly any windows.”
“It was total chaos, I had to
let my class go and just after
the students left the power came
back on,” said Tom Menden
hall, a teacher’s assistant in the
Literature and Writing Studies
Department.
According to San Diego Gas
and Electric (SDG&E), “The
outage prevented a potential,
uncontrollable blackout in the
San Diego area. The California
Independent System Operator
(Cal-ISO) ordered SDG&E to
drop 300 MW of power imme
diately. The resulting outage
affected 101 circuits at 11 sub
stations that serve portions of the
following communities: Blos
som Valley, Bonita, Carlsbad,
Chula Vista, City Heights, El
Cajon, Escondido, Fletcher Hills,
Highland Valley, La Mesa, Lake

Even though CSUSM has a
generator it only provides light
to some elevators and emergency
halls. The Dome, Cougar Store
and many other offices had to
close due to the power outage.

Anza-Borrego but each
attempt was unsuccessful.
Hamilton changed his plea
in November to guilty while at
the same time promising to find
Vasseur’s body. No reason was
given for Hamilton’s attempt to
change his plea, as stated in the
North County Times.
“We can’t do much without
him telling us the truth,” Hendren said.
The suspicion fell to Hamil
ton early due to his never return
ing to work after Sept. 22, fleeing
from police five days after Vas
seur’s disappearance and a previ
ous incident in which Hamilton
blocked Vasseur from leaving
his home until she hit him.
At the preliminary hearing,
witnesses testified that Hamilton
said he killed Vasseur by acci
dent during a fight with her and
dumped her body in the desert,
according to the North County
Times.
Prosecutors said Hamilton
killed Vasseur when she tried to
break off an affair with him, as
reported previously.
According to court papers,
Hamilton had a history of vio
lence toward women. A Wild
Animal Park co-worker alleged
that Hamilton sexually harassed
her while in a primate exhibit
in 1985. Hamilton also allegedly
punched another woman with a
closed fist and gave her a black
eye.
Vasseur’ husband, Charles,
^
said to the North County Times
that he now has little hope
his wife’s remains will ever be
found. “I usually go out every
once in awhile and look,” said
Charles Vasseur last November.
Financial Aid Director
»>Article cont. from pg. 1.
The advice Rizvi gives to
students is to research schol
arships and their requirements,
understand deadlines and state
requirements, and notify the
office of any changes.
According to Rizvi, the
financial aid office has more reg
ulations than the bank industry.
He said, “While we give the
money or checks to students,
there are a lot of things going
on in the back room. We have
to keep in compliance with state
standards.”
All the CSU system finan
cial aid offices would eventu
ally move to a new system, as
instructed by the chancellor, but
Rizvi’s current concentration is
on utilizing all the capabilities
of the current system.
Rizvi has a programming
diploma and a master’s degree
in Educational Counseling from
National University in San
Diego. He learned about the
opening at financial md through
his membership in California
Association of Financial Aid
Administrators (CASFA), which
provides a list of job postings.
Rizvi said he was not looking
for a job, but he saw the open
ing and became interested. He
researched the position and
became increasingly interested
in the position when he was
exposed to the technology and
student-friendly service offered
by the office.
Rizvi replaced Paul Phillips,
the former director of Financial
Aid and Scholarship Office. Phil
lips left the position last Decem
ber, which he had held since
the establishment of CSUSM in
1989.
Before coming to CSUSM,
Rizvi worked for USA Funds,
the biggest national student loan
company. He held the position of
national director for two years,
which ran a program with about
a $5 million budget. Rizvi said
that he was chosen out of 120
candidates and conducted 39
focus groups to help parents of
college students deal with loan
debts and to help students them
selves deal with college debt.

to the students on all university
issues that affect them, and I
promise to make big, positive
changes on this campus. Vote
Jocelyn Brown for ASI presi
dent.
Honee J. Folk
The task of a leader is to
get people from where they are
to where they have never been
before. My name is Honee J. Folk,
and Lam running for ASI presi
dent. With my proven leadership
skills and consistent advocacy
bn behalf of the student commu. nity at CSUSM, I plan to be the
force that takes our community
to where it has never been before.
The college is quickly expanding
and our community is expanding
as well. We need a leader who is
not afraid of change, welcomes
expansion, and will be the voice
of the entire community, not just
a select few. I am that leader,
your leader! A vote for me is an
assurance that your voice will be
heard. “It is not the critic who
counts, not the man who points
out how the strong man stum
bles ... the credit belongs to the
man who is actually in the arena,
whose face is marred by dust and
sweat and blood ... “ Put me in
the arena for you. Vote for Honee
J. Folk for ASI president.
Anna Hall
Pm running for the position
of ASI president. I just recently
decided on biology as my major
because I want to be a high school
biology teacher. If I am elected
ASI president, I will do my best
to bring unity to our very diverse
campus. It is my belief and the
belief of others at Cal State San
Marcos that we have very little
student campus life at our univer
sity. I believe that I can unite our
campus and give the students an
active and vibrant campus life. I
am the chairwoman of the Col
lege Republicans on our campus
and am involved with several
other clubs. In working with
the College Republicans, I have
attained good leadership qual
ities. I believe the best leader
serves the people and that is my
goal, to serve the students of Cal
State San Marcos to the best of
my abilities.
ASI Undergraduate Represen
tative
Alan Avery-Medina
I’m a full time first year stu
dent with a major in business. I
am running for ASI undergradu
ate representative. I am currently
the undergraduate representative
and have served on the search
committee for the ASI assistant
executive director. I am a member
of MEChA and also the Raza
Graduation Representative. Fur
thermore, I am the student leader
ship advocate for the Educational
Achievement and Retention Ser
vices (EARS), which has been
essential in building connections
with my constituents. As under
graduate representative, I will
keep you informed of all news
that affects your academic life
by posting flyers, having infor
mation on Cougar Channel, and
open forums. I will strive to
inform and motivate students to
increase campus pride and social
gatherings. I am a determined,
motivated, and inspired student
who will strive to make this
a student-centered community.
So vote for me, Alan AveryMedina.
Shannon Barnett
“How can I get involved
on this campus?” was the first
question I asked when I arrived
last semester as an incoming
freshman. My name is Shannon
Barnett, and I am running for
undergraduate representative. My
major is liberal studies. Since
asking my first question about
getting involved, I have found a.
variety of answers. First semes
ter, I was in the Emerging Lead
ers Program. Currently, I am
chair of the ASI Programming
Committee, an orientation teamlLeader, co-captain of the ASI
Women’s Club lacrosse team, and
philanthropy chair and assistant
rush of Alpha Chi Omega.
These
activities
have
enhanced my leadership abilities
while keeping me organized and
well rounded. On a new campus
where involvement is scarce and
many students are unaware of
what really goes on in ASI,
I realize the importance of a
great undergraduate representa
tive. This campus lacks commu
nity; I plan to take my knowledge
and experiences and build upon
them to establish goals we need
to bring the student body, ASI
and the faculty together. I will
facilitate student needs by listen
ing to the concerns and ideas of
the entire student body. We need
to voice our opinions and have
them heard. I urge you to take a
stand for your future. Vote for me,
Shannon Barnett, for undergrad
uate representative. Help make
this campus a place for you.
Jacqueline Campbell
I’m a biology major cur
rently working on my undergrad
uate degree. I am running for
undergraduate representative. As
a member of Alpha Xi Delta,
I have learned leadership skills,
participated in community ser
vice, as well as campus activities,
and I know what it tak§s to repre
sent a community of students. A
representative speaks on behalf of
the students he or she represents.
I want to add more sports, activ
ities, and clubs to this campus.
I am the voice that will make
these things happen, and I will
do all in my power to make this
campus great and a campus each
and every student hopes for.
Marc DeGuzman
Leadership can be defined
as creating a positive social
change in a person’s life. As a
freshman majoring in business
administration with an emphasis
in high-tech management, I see
the potential this college pos
sesses to transform from a com
muter school into a place where
active college life flourishes. Col
lege life is not just going to dif
ferent classes. It is a journey
that students choose to embark
on, filled with life long lessons
and outlets to the “real world.”
I want to help expand the pro
grams and activities already pres
ent, increase student involvement,
voice student opinions and con
cerns, and bring their ideas out
in the open. I believe that I
am qualified to be an under
graduate representative because
I posses leadership qualities and
have applied them in past experi
ences. By joining a fraternity on
campus, I have learned to interact
with other students on a deeper
level. Through many leadership
conventions and programs, I have
learned different types of lead
ership styles and have developed
my own. I feel I am dedicated,
responsible, and capable of taking
the initiative to accomplish tasks
successfully. Finally, I possess
the desire to impact other peo
ple’s lives in a positive manner.
Angineen Lynnae Hardin
As a recent graduate of the
class of2001 from Mount Carmel
High School, let me introduce
myself. I am Angineen (Angi) L.
Hardin and am currently a second
semester freshman majoring in
psychology. Throughout high
school I was heavily involved in
several clubs, organizations and
sports..I participated in tennis,
basketball and track. I was an
active member in Key Club and
Fellowship of Christian Athletes,
a peer advocate and academic
tutor. I held leadership positions
in our African American Student
Alliance such as historian, vice
president and president. I was
also honored with “Who’s Who
Among American High School
Students” award for two consec
utive years. I have given the same
dedication to my college career.
I am currently the publicity coor
dinator for the Pan African Stu
dent Alliance here on campus
and the assistant to the coordi
nator of Academic Assistance of
EOP/ASPIRE, Josephine Jones.
I’m very excited about attend
ing a new university. I believe
becoming ASI undergraduate
representative will be the perfect
opportunity to learn more about
CSUSM and give me the oppor
tunity to be a part of several
groundbreaking projects as the
expansion and development of
this university continues. I am a
passionate student who is will
ing and ready to accept the
responsibility of representing my
fellow undergrads as we develop
CSUSM into our home.
College of Arts & Sciences
Representative
Kristie McMullen
I’m running for the represen
tative of the College of Arts &
Sciences from the Education Col
lege perspective. I am a liberal
studies major with a sociology
minor. I have attended CSUSM
for the past three years. In this
time of being a cougar, I have
seen many things improve and
change for the better. Change and
improvement is what I am all
about.
I have been sitting on the ASI
Board of Directors as the under
graduate representative for the
past five months. In this time, I
have learned what it is to be a
representative of the students. I
know that you all want a dedi
cated individual who is willing
to stand up for your wants and
needs. For example, the parking
permit-zoning situation was pre
sented to me at a board meeting,
and I made sure many of you
were able to voice your opinions
and thoughts. In doing this we,
the student body, shut the pro
posal down. I want to be able to
serve each individual at CSUSM
with as much voice as I can.
Maria F. Schroeder
I am applying for the posi
tion of the College of Arts and
Sciences representative. I want
to be your voice, and voice your
concerns to the leadership of
CSUSM. As a communication
major with a Spanish minor, I am
more than qualified to accom
plish this mission. Throughout
my three years at Cal Stat San
Marcos, I have been active on
campus, primarily by being active
in my sorority, Alpha Chi Omega.
In this organization I have held
various elected positions. Of these
positions, one of the most impor
tant was as Alpha Chi Omega’s
representative to the Women’s
Greek Council. As a delegate on
the council, I voted on various
issues important to the Women’s
Greek community. This experi
ence has prepared me to be your
College of Arts and Sciences rep
resentative. I believe a student
representative should have an
open mind, be proactive in voic
ing student concerns to the lead
ership of CSUSM, and always
maintain an open door policy.
If elected, I promise to respect
every student concern that comes
to my attention, and to deal with
those concerns in an expeditious,
prudent, and unbiased manner. If
you want a College of Arts and
Sciences representative that is
dedicated to hearing your ideas,
being your voice, and making
sure that your voice gets heard,
then vote for me, Maria Fernanda
Schroeder.
Shannon Tweed
I’m a full time junior with a
major in human development.
I am running for the position
of College of Arts & Sciences
representative for ASI. I am an
active student member in the
Human Development and Vet
eran’s Association clubs. I am
also an EOP peer mentor on
campus, which has provided me
with knowledge and experience
to assist students within my col
lege while they navigate through
this bureaucratic system.
I am the best choice for Col
lege of Arts & Sciences represen
tative because as a U.S. Marine
Veteran, I have the discipline, loy
alty, and commitment to address
the interests, needs and concerns
of the student body in the Col
lege of Arts &1Sciences. So vote
for me, Shannon Tweed.
College of Business Representative
Matthew E. Coultas
My intention, and overall
responsibility, is to bring the opin
ions of the students enrolled in
the College of Business Admin
istration (CoBA) program to the
attention of the ASI governing
board. In doing so, I will voice
an accurate and forthcoming rep
resentation of the wishes and
concerns of those in the CoBA
program. I will be responsible
and dependable in the course of
carrying out the requirements of
the college of business represen
tative position. By performing
my duties in an honest and faith
ful manner, I intend to become
an asset to both ASI as well as
the general student population.
Deanna C. Garcia
I am running for College
of Business representative. This
is my sixth semester at Cal
State San Marcos, and I am work
ing on my bachelor’s degree in
business administration-service
sector management. Currently, I
am involved in a club on campus
and have held two executive posi
tions, one minor position, and
have served on two committees
within the organization. These
positions has given me the oppor
tunity to work closely with the
executive board to make deci
sions that benefit the group as a
whole. I will bring many ideas,
suggestions, an unbiased opinion
and a good attitude to ASI. I plan
to address all interests, needs and
concerns of the student body of
the College of Business as well
as insure that the mission state
ment of Cal. State San Marcos is
upheld in the College of Business
Administration.
Terra Nelson
I’m running for the position
of ASI representative for the Col
lege of Business Administration.
If elected, I will be a new face
to ASI; however, I am an old
one here at CSUSM. I have been
attending CSUSM since 1998,
and I intend to graduate with
a business degree in the spring
of 2003. As I enter my eighth
semester here at CSUSM, I have
decided to join ASI because I
want to bring freshness to the
team and allow different voices
and concerns on campus to be
heard.
I would be proud to serve
in ASI because I believe in the
values of intellectual engagement,
community, integrity, innovation,
and inclusiveness at CSUSM.
Implementing these values will
help me fulfill the vision of
CSUSM becoming a distinctive
public university in all facets of
academic excellence, service to
the community, and improving
learning by new innovative meth
ods.
Since our college is so young,
I hope to be a part of a team
that will lay a strong foundation
not only for today’s students, but
also for the students of tomor
row. I’m asking for the opportu
nity to build and share the vision
of CSUSM and develop a distinc
tive school that we are proud to
call our own.
Scott O’Hare
I’m enrolled in the College of
Business Administration major
ing in high technology manage

office of ASI representative for

“ Butt O u t ”
This is a response to the arti
cle “Stop It!” I found the lan
guage quite abrasive and laden
with messages of guilt. How
ever, I do realize tlie importance
of what was written. Personally,
I do not allow family or friends
to extinguish cigarettes at my
home by snuffing them out wher
ever they like, but my home is not
an institution. The staff writer
who wrote this article could
have better facilitated effective
communication by mentioning
how well our campus looks and
how, in the effort to maintain its
beauty, students could make an
active effort to dispose of their
cigarettes in their proper place.
Furthermore, I find the imag
ery used to get the point across
ludicrous: “I catch myself dodg
ing them as I walk to and fro.”
The better approach to a mes
sage such as this is by using
positive powers of persuasion,
not trying to heap upon smokers
an insurmountable level of guilt.
Reading The Pride, I believe,
is for the purpose of assessing
the progress and development of
its staff and students, measuring
how much we have achieved and

The masses are obsequious, contented in their sleep, the vortex of
their minds ensconsed within the murky deep.
The infirmity of man is brought on by his selfish core.
So here we are again to experience the bitter, scalding end, and
we're the only ones who can perceive it. But others sing of beauty
and the story that has unfolded as one that deserves praise and
ritual. My pessimistic lines, your superstitious lives, and the modem
age's lies won't absolve you. And the professional truth and the
dear clairvoyant youth, and, of course, the nightly news will deceive
you.

JOY WHITMAN
for The Pride
So the snowboarding and ski
season hasn’t been so great due
to the lack of rain, but the condi
tions have been great for surfers,
including those on our surf team.
For those of you to whom this is
groundbreaking news, WAKE UP!
Yes, Cal State San Marcos has a
surf team and has had four com
petitions during the regular season.
ASI added surfing to its list of
approved club sports on January 25.
The team is small at the moment,
but has all the potential to become
lively and popular within the next
year and beyond. The surf team
joined 23 teams at the Seaside
Reef competition over President’s
Day weekend and took sixth place.
Shortboarder Jeff Fairbanks earned
20 points for the team, longboarder
Dustin Franks earned 18 and after
winning three consecutive heats,
also took first place in the College
Longboard Division. Fairbanks was
a key player in this competition;
shredding through five rounds and
just missing advancement to the
college men’s final. He took sev
enth place overall. George Demarino, the team’s bodyboarder, had a
strong supporting role, earning 13
points for the team and taking sixth
place overall.
Check out next week’s edition
of The Pride for the results of
their final regular season competi
tion held on Feb. 24 in Huntington
Beach. For more information about
the team contact coach Amber
Puha at apuha@csusm.edu.
Until next time —pray for surf,

Paralympics Light Up Olympic
Flame Again
A Preview of What Is to Come
By MELANIE ADDINGTON
Arts Editor
Beginning Saturday, March
9, Olympic fans can turn their
TVs to A&E and watch the
Paralympic Games. The Olympic
flame will be relit and the world’s
disabled athletes will compete in
Alpine and‘Nordic skiing, and
sledge hockey. In addition to
competitive events, Canada and
the U.S. will play an exhibition
game of ice hockey.
Over 36 countries and 1,000
athletes (The U.S. has 57 ath
letes, 41 men and 16 women) will
compete in the 2002 Games.
The opening ceremony on
Thursday, March 7 will include
entertainment from Stevie
Wonder,
country
singers
Wynonna and Billy Gilman, pop
perfomer Donny Osmond, and
pop-classical violinist VanessaMae. NBC will air the one-hour
program on Saturday, March 9th
at 2 p.m. EST.
What is the difference
between the Olympics and Para
lympics?
Unlike the Olympics, the
Paralympics use a classification
system that enables athletes to
compete on an equal level: all
athletes compete with a pre
determined degree of disability.
Athletes are divided into
three categories: LW classes
(competitors
with
_
locomotive disabil
ities), sitting LW
classes, and B classes
(competitors
with
visual impairment).
was introduced by athletes at
the Innsbruck 1984 Paralympic
Winter Games. Since then, cross
country skiing events have been
split into two separate races: clas
sical and free technique, accord
ing to the Paralympics 2002 web
site.
Alpine Skiing
Men and women will com
pete in four alpine skiing dis
ciplines during the Salt Lake
2002 Paralympic Winter Games:
downhill, super-G, giant slalom
and slalom.
Courses differ in length, ver
tical drop and number of gates,
all of which dictate the skier’s
technique and speed, according
to the Paralympics 2002 web
site.
Giant slalom and slalom
skiing events have been medal
events since the first Paralympic
Games. Downhill was added at
the Innsbruck 1984‘Paralympic
Winter Games, and super-G at
the Lillehammer 1994 Paralym
pic Winter Games.
Ice Sledge Hockey

1960s by a group of Swedes who,
despite their physical impair
ment, wanted to continue playing
hockey, as stated on the Para

The athletes use a modified

lar-sized ice hockey skate blades
that allow the puck to pass under

The Sports:
Nordic Skiing
Nordic
skiing
consists of two events
- cross-country and
biathlon. Cross-coun
try skiing began at
the 1976 inaugural Para
lympic Winter Games
in Ornskoldsvik, Sweden. How
ever, biathlon did not become
a medal sport until the Lillehammer 1994 Paralympic Winter
games.

I am a member of the Women’s

focuses on outreach to disad

which provides them with pos
itive encouragement. The pro
gram encourages each young
person to utilize the other as a
beneficial resource and means of
support.
I am treasurer of the Pan
African Student Alliance, and I
am responsible for keeping accu
rate records of our accounts. I
update our statements and main
tain open communication with
the officers and members of our
organization concerning budget
ary matters. With the help of
the network I have established
here on campus with students,
faculty, and staff, I will achieve
each goal set forth this coming
year. My dedication to student
involvement and student life will
be reflected in my work on
the ASI budget, so vote me, Crys

is no college culture, and little
student involvement. I too com

myself. My goals as the College

only to represent the students of

to create memorable and creative
activities for this campus. The

struct new buildings; however,
someone must build the spirit
within the campus first, and it
will start with me.

ASI Vice President of External
Affairs
Brett Gladys
The time has come for us to
take hold of our university and
mold it into ‘our’ university! The
time has come for change! The
division that exists between stu
dent government and the stu
dents of Cal State San Marcos is
wrong, and serves no one. I, Brett
Gladys, am running for the posi
tion of vice president of External
The Pride
Affairs so that I can work to rec
tify this situation. In this posi
tion, I will be able to work with
students to promote change at Cal
State San Marcos and to work
on a statewide level with every
Cal State University to fight for
student interests. Cal State San
Marcos needs leadership that is
in touch with the needs and con
cerns of students and is willing
to work diligently for those inter
ests. As vice president of External
Affairs, I will
communicate
with students
and speak for
them at ASI
and CSSA conferences. I will
work to enrich the lives of stu
dents and to see involvement on
campus grow. Through campus
pride initiatives and increased
student involvement in the stu
dent government, we can improve
this university! There are great
things on the horizon for Cal
State San Marcos, and it is my
wish that every student be a part
of them.

As your ASI vice president
of External Affairs, I will fight
for issues that are important
to CSUSM students: Low fees

increased funding for more
diverse student activities and
keeping you informed of policy
changes that affect us.
I am a veteran of the US
Navy. I served in student lead

skills and qualifications that are
required for the position of vice

Being a well-known indi

campus stretches well beyond the
area of student government. I
am a devoted student advocate
actively involved with student life
and student issues. My dedica

In conclusion, what I have to

Arti A. Patel
I am running for the position
of executive vice president. I am
a sociology major who will be
graduating next June. The reason
I am running is simple: there is a
need to increase student involve
ment on campus, and I feel I am
the most qualified to handle that
job. As the current executive vice
president of ASI, I am in charge
of placing students who want to
get involved either through com
mittees, focus groups or other
activities/events in need of a stu
dent voice. As a student who has
been involved in many aspects
of student life on this campus,
I have observed the increasing
need for student involvement and
student voice. In my first week
as the newly appointed execu
tive vice president, I was able to
recruit three students to fill cur
rently vacant board of director
positions, as well as place sev
eral students on committees with
openings. If elected as executive
vice president for the 2002-2003
school year, I plan to implement
programs such as a campus pride
initiative, as well as other ini
tiatives, that will help to build
campus community.

of that hiatus was spent in the US
Army, where I worked as a clerk
in the Finance Corps. Part of my
job in the U.S. Army Finance
Corps was to be the debt man
ager for over 10,000 soldiers from
two bases in Germany and also
for the camps I was deployed to
in Bosnia and Kosovo. This job
required a lot of organization and
efficiency. Coincidentally, these
. very same skills are needed to be
an effective ASI corporate secre
tary.
Being away from college for
so long has helped me to appre
ciate the opportunity I have to
get involved and make a differ
ence. To that end, when I came
to CSUSM last semester, I hit
the ground running. Instantly, I
joined the lacrosse team, began
sitting on the ASI External
Affairs Committee, and started
up the Progressive Activists Net
work (PAN), of which I am the
current president. One of the
things I found striking about
CSUSM when I came here was
the lack of community, identity,
and school pride. Through PAN,
I have been trying to change that
by collaborating and communi
cating with several other student
organizations and bring events
to campus that will foster feel
ings of community, identity, and
school pride. For example, PAN’s
monthly Socially Relevant Film
Series (started this semester) has
arranged to show films with
PASA, the Women’s Studies Stu
dent Association, APSS, and the
Environmental Club. Right now,
this campus is quiet and lacks a
conspicuous identity, but it does
not have to be like that. We have
so much potential, to make this
place fun, to make this place
rock, and most importantly, to
make this place ours.
There have been times this
year when student voices were
not heard by the leadership of
OSUSM, and sometimes that has
been disastrous (i.e. the Com
mencement controversy). As ASI
corporate secretary, it would be
my job to keep the information
student leaders need to make
informed decisions on past, cur
rent, and future issues. But I do
not feel that is enough. If elected,
I promise to be a proactive
secretary who is dedicated to
keeping students abreast of cur
rent issues, finding out how stu
dents feel about those issues, and
making sure that the leadership
of CSUSM know how students
feel about issues. If you want
an ASI corporate secretary ded
icated to keeping you informed,
hearing your ideas, being your
voice, and making CSUSM a
place we can all be proud of, vote
for me, Erik Roper.

Thefts Over Summer
By: Melanie Addington
PRIDE EDITOR
Over the summer, California State
University San Marcos experienced a series
of thefts that occurred from May 3 to
June 6, in Founder's Plaza, University Hall,
Craven Hall, an£Science Hall.
According to Chief Thomas Schultheis,
"the individual entered an unoccupied office
or room and removed the cash from unattended purses and wallets. This individual
looked through desks and file cabinet drawers, where most people keep their purses and
other valuables."
4
No further thefts have been reported.
Chief Schultheis states that the Campus
Police increased foot patrols around the
areas and developed a profile on the
individual. Schultheis believes the individual
stopped once he/she was aware of the profile
developed by the campus police.
There have not been many thefts on
campus in the past. Schultheis states that
this was a "one time series," but as a campus
grows, "individuals take advantage of the
* opportunities"

Sinead O'Connor's L atest
Album H as Faith and Courage
By: Melanie Addington
PRIDE EDITOR
Sinead O 'Connor's sixth
album, Faith and Courage,
continues her tradition of wistful ballads with two new, beautiful songs, "Jealous" and " The
State I 'm In." Like her 1990
hit, "Nothing Compares to U,"
the songs r eflect on lost love
and the pain of healing a fter a
breakup.
fMoti&S*
"Dancing Lessons" is the
only song on the album mixed
and produced by Wyclef Jean,
formally a member of the now
d efunct Fugees, who is set t o
release his second independent
album this week. Although the
sound of "Dancing Lessons"
is a bit bubblegum, the beat
is catchy and the lyrics inspire
romantic daydreams. However,
the remaining songs on th&
album r eflect a mature, strong,
and independent woman who
seems to have f inally found an
inner peace.
In the song, " The Lamb's
Book of Life," Sinead atones for
her angrier days. She sings, " I
know that I have done many
things to give you reason not t o
listen t o me/but if you knew me
maybe you would understand
me/words can't express how
sorry I am." On the edge of
preaching she continues, " If
people j ust believed enough in
God to pray/the world t hinks
that sounds crazy/and t hat's the
thing that makes me sing so
sadly/to t hink that we would
leave God so lonely/to t hink
that we would mess u p our own
destiny."

Maria Izquierdo, Jose

artists with works on exhibit.

A s a dedicated priest of

theme of faith and praise t o
the Father is a f ar cry f rom
t he outrageous young woman
who tore the Pope's picture on
Saturday Night Live in 1992.
Sinead's second track, " No
M an's Woman," has been gaining popularity by its continuous
radio play on p op stations. In
t his song, she f uses her faith
in spirituality and confidence
of a strong, independent woman
into one well-mixed song with
a catchy beat.
The album starts strong,
but, by t he end, the slow

The Truth About Stress
and the College Student
Why is it that we can't or that we don't have the time
to do so?
seem to get it right when
it comes to recycling on
I don't believe so. I
believe it*s simply because
this campus?
By Sarah Aberle, MPH, RN
There is an ample number
of recycling containers on this
campus: more than 200 freestanding containers throughout
campus, several individual
containers, and three gray containers located in the Dome for
aluminum, plastic, and glass
recycling products.
Getting back into the fall
semester brings excitement,
anxiety, and stress for all students. From freshmen to graduate students, stress is experienced through pressures of
writing papers, taking tests,
keeping up on reading assignments^ and perhaps working
fulltime while raising children.
Many people do not realize
that stress is a normal part of
life. Stress can be helpful to get
things done; however, too much
stress can be harmful. Our
bodies react to stress in a
"fight or flight reaction." When
our sympathetic nervous system is working overtime and
we are frequently experiencing
the "fight or flight" reaction,
we also experience psychological and/or physical problems.
Symptoms we experience
with increased stress or
anxiety:
Tension headaches, inability to
concentrate, insomnia;
Gastrointestinal symptoms,
diarrhea, nausea;
Increased or decreased appetite;
Tightness in the chest, backaches, neck pain;
Increased feelings of anxiety;
and
Mood swings and irritability
What can be done to
combat stress?
1) Learn to say, "No!"
Try to decrease your
workload if possible. Learn to
say NO! Learn to set limits
for yourself. Try to take one
day at a time and acknowledge
your accomplishments as tasks
are completed. Put things into
perspective and evaluate: "How
will this decision effect the
BIG picture in my life." Don't
spend time worrying about
circumstances that you cannot
change.
2) Exercise:
Remember to get daily
exercise. Exercising helps to
increase e ndorphins (a
chemical in the brain, thathelps
us to relax and to feel good).
Try walking, running, taking
a dance class, roller-blading,
going to the gym, or swimming.
Exercise makes you feel good
and look good! Simply taking a
walk in the sunshine can help
improve your mood.
3) Relax:
Learn to relax throughout
the day by stretching and
taking slow deep breaths.
Learn to meditate and set aside
some quiet time to organize
your thoughts. Watch out for
negative thoughts that can
overpower you throughout the
day. Surround yourself with
positive and nurturing friends.
Share your concerns with your
friends; many times simply
knowing that other people feel
the same way helps to alleviate
stress.
Leave some time in your
schedule for f un, enjoyable
activities. Remember it should
be f un or relaxing!
Take a hot bath with candles
around the bathtub, watch the
sunset at the beach, take a hike
in the woods, or listen to your
favorite music.
4) Remember to sleep and
eat:
Try to get adequate sleep
and eat three well-balanced
m&als per day with plenty
of f ruit and vegetables. Good
nutrition fuels the body, which
keeps us going while it boosts
our immune system in order
to fight off infections. Watch
out for too much caffeine
and alcohol; if you consume
too much, they can affect
your ability to sleep and to
concentrate.
Learn to recognize the
signals that your body gives off
when you are experiencing too
much stress. Make adjustments
and learn to say NO! It's okay
not to be Super Man or Super
Woman. Give yourself a break!
Learn to accept the things you
cannot change.
If you are a new college
student, you may need
additional help with time
management, study skills,
guidance in writing papers,
note taking, etc. For more
information on the above topics
check out:
There are more containers
for recycling on this campus
than any other college campus
or institution that I have set
foot upon, and, yet, we can't
seem to get it right.
AB75 is a recently passed
and enacted California legislative bill that dictates that
all California universities must
change, implement, and
improve their recycling programs within the next few
years.
According to AB75, all
state universities must be at
twenty-five percent recycling
efficiency by 2002 and at f ifty
percent recycling efficiency by
the year 2004. This means
that if CSUSM does not reach
this level by the year 2004, it
could be penalized and fined,
thus losing valuable money and
prestige in the eyes of other
CSU campuses.
We currently stand at about
thirty percent recycling e fficiency—very good in comparison to other campuses and
their recycling programs—but
the thirty percent recycling
efficiency falls short of the
fifty percent efficiency that
must be met by 2004.
CSUSM's recycling coordinator, Carl Hanson, says,
"With the amount of resources
we have at our disposal and the
accessibility of those resources, there is no reason why we
shouldn't be at f ifty percent or
better this very year."
students and faculty don't
prioritize recycling. Nancy
Hoskins, Assistant Director of
Administration and Customer
Service, states, "Individuals
should be more responsible for
their individual actions "
The problem is that we, as
a whole—students and faculty
—can't seem to get the simple
concept that plastic and aluminum can't be mixed with glass,
glass shouldn't be mixed with
paper, and that trash should be
thrown in the trash can and not
mixed with any recycling product. Even worse, some of us
don't participate in its practices
at all.
On a number of occasions I
have observed faculty and students throwing trash into recycling bins and recycling products thrown into trashcans. It
always appears that the culprits
just don't seem to care about
what they are doing.
It's not like our system
here at CSU San Marcos is
that difficult, any grade school
child could figure it out: Red
containers of any size or shape
are for glass products to be
placed into, gray containers
of any size are for plastic or
aluminum, and black containers are for paper products—not
including cardboard or poster
board.
So I guess I'm here to
remind everyone that it does
matter how efficiently we do
recycle, not only for the ecologically hazardous effects of
not recycling properly, but
for the monetary and political
effects on the campus community.
If we were recycling properly, there would be no reason
why all other universities
couldn't look upon us as the
ideal model by which to aspire.
So why aren't we better at
recycling? Is it because we
are confused about recycling,

While most of the works
on display are translated f rom
English to Spanish, these particular prints are not translated
for museum goers, possibly
due to the translation of the
piece which hints at male
anatomical p arts slightly disguised by a summer beach
scene. Depending on your
sense of humor, these unusual
prints will either make you
cringe or laugh. Calderon's
prints are j ust some of the
many surprising and unique
pieces o f work in this exhibit
f rom the Jacques and Natasha
Gelman Collection.
In my opinion, this art
exhibit is definitely worth
checking out and art-lovers
will not be disappointed by
Kahlo's self-portraits and
Rivera's Calla Lily Vendor.
These works of art may be

If written directions alone
would suffice, libraries wouldn't
need to have the rest of the universities attached.
-Judith Martin, "Miss
Manners" columnist and author
Seeing much, suffering much,
and studying much, are the three
pillars of learning.
-Benjamin Disraeli
It is important that students
bring a certain ragamuffin, barefoot, irreverence to their studies;
they are not here to worship what
is known, but to question it.
-J. Bronowski, The Ascent of
Man
A love a ffair with knowledge
will never end in heartbreak.
-Michael Garrett-Marino
A fool's brain digests philosophy into folly, science into
superstition, and art into pedantry. Hence, University education.
-George Bernard Shaw
Learning is a treasure that
will follow its owner every-
where.
