This is one of my family's favorite Thanksgiving time
recipes. My mother started making this for everyone
as something to nibble on as ail the people arrived for
Thanksgiving dinner, and let me tell you something—
they are addictive!
What you'll need:
- A Pan - A Small Bag of Halved Pecans
- 1/ 3 cup of sugar - (Optional: Ground Cinnamon)
(1) Get frying pan out and put a small bag of halved pecan in, let it heat up the pan and pecans. (2) Sprinkle a pinch of sugar over all pecans and let set for about 15 seconds. (3) Stir gently and reapply sugar to
all areas. (4) Repeat this until all of the sugar is gone and stuck to the pecans. WARNING: Do not let pecans
overheat or burn. (5) Let cool in pan for about 5 minutes, then serve in decorative bowl for everyone to enjoy!

Listen t o these songs and take it easy while you
stretch out on the yoga mat and get your mind in
the right place t o finish off our last five weeks of
school.
"Latika's Theme" by A.R."Rahman & Suzanne
This song is soothing and methodical, with low
humming and singing in a mnemonic tone that
would really set the mood for peace t o set your
mind at rest.
"Awake My Soul" by Mumford & Sons
This beautiful conglomeration of the voices from
the Mumford & Sons band is so relaxing and puts
a smile on your face.This song will get you singing
along t o the heart-warming words.
"Vanilla Twilight" by O w l City
This rhythmic song flows along as if you're floating

Adam Young from O w l City.
"Put Your Records O n " by Corinne Bailey Rae
This is a classic song about taking a break and letting go. W it h all the never-ending supply of exams
and essays due, taking i t easy is essential t o our
well being. Sing or hum along t o this catchy tune.
" O Children" by Nick Cave and the Bad Seeds
This long song will have you slowly bobbing your
head.The beat is great, almost a waltz, and can also
be a great study aid.

CFA Ratifies
Contract with CSU
Administration
ByAMYBOLASKI
Graduate Intern
The tentative contract
agreed upon by the California
Faculty Association (CFA) and
the CSU Administration on
March 2 was ratified, by an
overwhelming 95 percent of
voting CFA members, on March
22. The three-year contract
extends through 2004 and
affects more than 22,000 CSU
faculty and employees.
CFA Chapter President
George Diehr said, “At Cal
State San Marcos, we had the
highest turn-out of any CSU
campus for voting to ratify
the agreement: over 85 percent.
About 91 percent of CSUSM
voters voted to ratify the agree- •
ment.”

City Pulls the Plug on Power Surge Cafe
ByAMYBOLASKI
Graduate Intern
Before University Hall or
FCB was built, before Caesar
Chavez found a permanent place
on campus in the form of a
bust, Power Surge Cafe was serv
ing massive amounts of coffee
and feeding the university’s stu
dents and surrounding commu
nity members, many of whom
found the nearby establishment
the perfect spot for a study break.
After more than five years in
business, the long-time staple
of the campus community will
close its brightly painted doors
on April 26,2002.
The City of San Marcos,
which owns the cafe’s parking lot
and surrounding land, has chosen
not to renew Power Surge’s lease.
“We knew losing the lease was a
possibility going in,” said Mark

Athletic Department Only Dr. Oberem to Receive Brakebill Award
Receives 5 Percent of Donation By LISA LIPSEY
Pride Feature Editor
CLAUDIA IGNACIO
Pride Editor
On Jan. 9, the university
received a gift of $2.6 million
from Helen Clarke for athletic
scholarships. Clarke had previ
ously assisted the athletic depart
ment through other grants. She
died on Dec. 3, 2000, at the age
of 83 and became the largest
single donor to Cal State San
Marcos, with gifts totally nearly
$4 million.
“The grant has not increased
our budget, it only provides secu
rity,” said Steve Scott, head track
coach. The endowment’s pur
pose is to support the scholar
ships for student-athletes in the
campus’ golf, cross-country and
track programs. Nonetheless,
only 5 percent of the $2.6 mil
lions will be distributed each
year, starting next fiscal year.
If the percentage of the invest
ment is more than 5 percent, the
university foundation will invest
theVest into the original princi
pal’s amount.
According to Scott, “The
University Foundation handles
all the money, the grant will
be invested and due to certain
guidelines and regulations, only
5 percent goes to the scholar
ship program.” This means that
approximately $130,000 will go
to 40 track and field, 14 golf
and 20 cross-country athletes.
The CSUSM Foundation is a
nonprofit, auxiliary organiza
tion that aims to advance the
goals of the university through
commercial enterprises, busi
ness services; the administra
tion of grants and contracts, and
financial management.

Dr. Graham Oberem is this
year’s recipient of the Harry
E. Brakebill Distinguished Pro
fessor Award. Oberem will be
honored at a ceremony on
Wednesday, May 1, at 3:30 p.m.
in Commons 206. At the cere
mony, he will be presented with
a $1,500 check. The Harry E.
Brakebill Distinguished Profes
sor Award is given to faculty on
the basis of outstanding contri
butions to their students, to their
academic disciplines, and to their
campus communities.
“I am honored ... I greatly
enjoy teaching and, maybe
because physics has the reputa
tion of being a difficult subject,
I always find it rewarding when
a student suddenly catches on to
a physics idea. That moment of
learning is thrilling to me every
time,” said Oberem.

Controversial Journalist Greg Palast
and Congressman Bob Filner Give
Lecture at CSUSM
ZACHARY A. PUGH
For The Pride
On Monday, March 18,
investigative journalist Greg
Palast shared controversial infor
mation concerning current polit
ical scandals with a Cal State
San Marcos audience, causing
some students to leave, while
others appeared mesmerized by
the pile of confounding evidence
and paper trails that he pre
sented.
The campus lecture began
Palast’s three-day San Diego
book tour. After introductions
from CSUSM’s Democrat Club
member, political science pro
fessor Dr. Mike Byron and
Congressman Bob Filner, Palast
covered topics ranging from the
fall and corruption of Enron to
the skewed voting polls of Flor
ida, which led to the “theft of the
election,” according to Palast.
He also made some bold
statements about Bush and pos
sible business ties with the bin
Laden family. “These people are
nice people ... we know because
we’re business partners,” he said

�Free Issues of the New York Times
BY JESSICA KRONE
Pride Staff Writer
,
Free issues of The New York
Times and The San Diego Union
Tribune will continue to be
available at newsstands around
campus until the last week of
March. This is part of the fourweek Readership Pilot Program
brought to CSUSM by the Asso
ciated Students, Inc (ASI). The
program has been instated on a
trial basis in order to ascertain
how many students pick up and
read the paper(s).
“The decision to keep the
program depends on funding. If
we can partner up with other
offices on campus - then the
program will most likely stay.
If ASI is solely responsible for
the funding, then it depends on
cost, etc,” said Jocelyn Brown,
ASI vice president of External
Affairs.
The newspapers will be on
newsstands in the Dome corri
dor, in front of the library, in
front of the ASI office (Com
mons 203), on the second floor
of University Hall and near the

The placement of an established
newspaper next to The Pride
stands should “enhance reader
ship of The Pridef Brown said.
“A good number of people
try to keep up with The New York
Times because it includes
a larger variety of current
domestic information, includ
ing the stock market, soci
ology and history,” said
Lorenzo Grey, a CSUSM stu
dent. The New York Times
is known as “a newspaper
of record,” said Dr. Alyssa
Sepinwall, a history profes
sor at CSUSM. “Getting in
the habit of reading The New
York Times is good for stu
dents, especially if they have
access to it,” added Sepim
wall.
“The program appears to
be showing signs of success,
with empty racks at the end of
the day,” said Brown. There
has been no approximation of
how long it will take after
the pilot program is finished
to establish when the perma
nent program will be pro
posed for approval. The cost,
if approved, “depends on how
many papers we go with, what
papers we decide to distribute
and how many per day. It’s hard
to give an estimate at this time,”
Brown said.

New Library Has First Accident
CFA Ratifies Contract
By JAMIEKO LANE
Pride Staff Writer
At approximately 9:30 a.m.
Tuesday. March 19, a column
from the initial framework of
the new library fell. No one
was injured when the 85-foot-tall
steel column fell, and the struc
ture incurred only minor dam
ages, including chipped concrete
and broken wooden handrails.
The 10-ton vertical column
stands with anchor bolts and lev
eling nuts to hold it in place.
To install a horizontal beam,
the crane supporting the column
must let go of the vertical column
to pick up the horizontal beam.
When it was released, the ver
tical beam let loose. According
to Don Price, construction man
ager, “The column just wasn’t
secure enough.”
The incident could have been
extremely damaging. “If it had
fallen in any other direction, it

potentially could have hit the
crane or the retaining walls,”
said Price. “[The incident] in no
way damages the integrity of the
building”
One-half to two-thirds of the
column is no longer usable and
has been discarded. Visibly and
structurally, the damaged column
is much shorter than the rest,
but construction continues. “This
[incident] will in no way slow
down construction,” said Price.
The incident was reportedly
due to subcontractor McMahon
Steel’s technique of using only
one crane to accomplish the job.
“The technique the contractor
was using isn’t allowed any
more,” said Price, who guaran
teed it will not happen again.
The contractor must now use two
cranes. “If you look, there are
now two cranes. One crane hold
ing the column, and one crane
installing the beam,” he added.
Although the incident hasn’t
slowed down construction, it
was costly. The damage done
will cost approximately $20,000.
“[McMahon] has to pay all the
losses. It’s not coming out of the
taxpayer’s dollars,” Price said.
For now, the construction
team will install the horizontal
beams on the second and third
floors, waiting approximately

�S exual Predator Lurking at San Diego State University
By JAMIEKO LANE
Pride Staff Writer
On March 5, 2002, the fifth
and latest attack was made by a
sexual predator roaming the area
around SDSU. The five attacks
all happened near the campus.
Two of the attacks happened at
the same apartment complex on
Montezuma Rd. The third hap
pened down the street on Mon
tezuma road, the fourth on 55th
Street, and the fifth in a grocery
store on El Cajon Boulevard.
All five women, 20 years old,
are not connected or related in
any way. According to Marc
Fox, Crime Prevention Specialist
at SDSU, “They’re isolated inci
dents, completely random and offcampus.” According to Detective
Ron Newquist, of the San Diego
Police Department, “The man
followed the women home and
entered shortly after they did,
through an unlocked door, in
three of the incidents.”
The man does not rape the
women, instead he commits
what’s called sexual battery. The
man comes from behind and
grabs the crotch and the breasts of
the women through their clothes.
All five women began scream
ing and pushing him away, which
startled the man and made him
flee.
According to Fox, “The con
cept is to increase awareness.
We are trying to increase the
use of more safety precautions.
Common sense things, like walk
ing in groups and making sure
that all doors and windows are
locked.” Fox also said that they’ve
increased the patrol around the
campus with both undercover and
uniformed police. Fox, a propo
nent of R.A.D. (a self defense
course against rape, solely for
women) said, “People are picked
on their perception of vulnerabil
ity. Sometimes a woman who
appears confident and aware of
her surroundings avoids a poten
tial attack without even knowing
it.”
“The media has depicted one
guy. But he isn’t it. We have two
other suspects pending computer
[confirmation],” said Newquist
on the progress of the case. The
perpetrator has been described as
a black male between the ages of
17-22,5’6-5’8 ,140-170 lbs., short
hair, round face, flat nose, clean
shaven and wears baggy clothes.
If you see anyone matching this
description you should call the
San Diego Police Department’s
24-hour line (619) 531-2000.
CSUSM is a relatively safe
campus, with no sexual attacks
recorded to date. . When asked
about the precautions and strat
egies that the university police
would take if a sexual predator
came to CSUSM, Chief Tom
Schultheis of the CSUSM uni
versity police said, “This would
be considered a serious situation
and we would make it a numberone priority.”
“The first thing that I would
do would be to recommend that
all our women students look into
the R.A.D. program. It’s a
class that allows women to be
self-empowered.
Second we
would work with the Sheriffs
Department and do everything
that would ultimately lead to an
arrest,” said Schultheis.
One thing that was suggested
by both Fox and Schultheis was
that all female students be more
aware of their surroundings when
alone. If for any reason you feel
unsafe when walking to your
car, both the university police of
SDSU and CSUSM have escort
services that are available 24
hours a day, seven days a week.
At CSUSM, the police can be
contacted 24 hours a day, seven
days a week on the silver phones
located throughout the campus,
at any of the emergency poles
located throughout the parking
lots and the track, or by dialing
direct 750-4567.

anger, increased health problems, may not be able to concentrate

A survivor’s attitude toward
his/her body may be negatively
affected. This change may lead
to self-abuse (e.g., alcohol abuse,
overeating, self-mutilation, etc.)
The survivor may find it diffi

sexual intimacy for some time
or may engage in risky sexual
behaviors.
Common Phases:
Survivors often go through
three general phases. (The phases
do not always occur in the order
listed below.)
Phase One: This phase may
last a few days to several weeks.
The survivor may experience
.shock and severe distress, con
fusion, disorientation, anger, and
rage.
Phase Two: The survivor
often wishes to forget the inci
dent and return to “normal.” It is
common to want to suppress feel
ings in order to forget about the
incident and regain control. How
ever, the crisis is not resolved.
Phase Three: The survivor
is ready to begin to deal with
the feelings associated with the
assault/abuse. This phase usually
involves re-experiencing feelings,
thoughts, and memories of the
assault/abuse. This healing pro
cess may vary in duration. *
Throughout all three phases,
survivors need supportive people
(friends, family, loved ones.) A
survivor support group and/or a
counselor can also be of help.
How to help a survivor of sexual
assault/abuse
—
“Sometimes I hear my voice
and ifs been here, silent all

*
Talk, listen, respect and be
emotionally available to the sur
vivor. Accept what the survivor
tells you. Accept the fact that the
assault/abuse happened. Under
stand that it is not the survivor’s
fault. Do not blame the survivor.
No one deserves to be sexually
assaulted or abused, even when
you feel poor judgments were
made by the survivor. Do not
blame yourself either. The only
person who is at fault is the person
who committed the crime.
Suggest options and actions
(medical, psychological and other
assistance), but let the survivor
decide what action to take. Let
the survivor talk about the inci
dent, but don’t force a discus
sion. Respect and understand that
temporarily the survivor may
become distant from loved ones.
Assure the survivor that you will
be available to provide support
throughout the process of recov
ery. Give the survivor time to
heal. Moderate your natural ten
dencies to become overprotective.
The survivor may need to
seek medical attention immedi
ately. You can help by encour
aging and accompanying the
survivor to obtain medical atten
tion. If the survivor wishes to
seek criminal action, this should
be done as soon as possible.

Sexual Assault Statistics
According to the victimization survey, 261,053 rapes and sexual
assaults occurred in the United States in 2001.
In 2001,17 percent of rape or sexual assault victims were victimized
by an intimate. Women were raped or sexually assaulted by an inti
mate more frequently than men (18 percent vs. 3 percent).
Police recorded 90,186 incidents of forcible rape in 2001. Of these
reports, 46.9 percent resulted in an arrest of at least one person.
Findings from a study of 3,006 women revealed that a rape victim Was
nine times more likely to receive timely medical care if she reported
die assault to the police Or other authorities. Three out of fow victims
in this study who reported the rape to police received medical care,
whereas only 15 percent of rape victims who did not report the crime
receivedpost-rape medical care.
It is estimated that only 10 percent of rapes are reported to the police.
Among college women, nine in 10 victims of rape and sexual assault
knew their offender. 13 percent of completed rapes, 35 percent of
attempted rapes, and*22.9 percent of threatened rapes happened during
a date.
Off-campus sexual victimization is much more common among col
lege women than on-campus victimization. Of victims of completed
rape, 33.7 percent were victimized on campus, and 66.3 percent offcampus.
In reported college-level assault cases, 75 percent of the male perpe
trators and 55 percent of the female victims report that alcohol was
involved at the time of the incident.
Less than 5 percentof completed or attempted rapes against college
women were reported to law enforcement. However, in two thirds of
the incidents, the victim did tell another person, usually a friend, not
family or school officials.

Pride Staff Writer
“You are a resource to every
woman you know,” said Officer
Mario Samz. head instructor of
the Rape Aggression Defense
(R.A.D.) program, in closing at
the last of the four three-hour
training classes for Basic Rape
Aggression Defense. One major
fear many women hold is that of
being raped. It’s a realistic fear,
since a national statistic holds
that one out of every four college
women will be sexually assaulted
during her four years i n college.
One way that colleges around the
world are trying to lower those
odds is through Basic R.A.D.
Basic R.A.D was designed
specifically for women, to show
them not only how to defend
themselves if they are attacked,
but also to show them how to
prevent being raped. In 12 hours,
a deceivingly short amount of
time, participants are able to learn
about how to become more aware
of surroundings, the do’s and
don’ts of surviving an attack, and
of course, defense techniques.
I recently graduated from
the Basic R.A.D. course here on
campus. During the beginning of
the course, Barbara Sainz, the
wife of Officer Sainz as well as
a certified instructor of R.A.D.,
asked us about our expectations
of the class to ensure that we were
being realistic. Many just wanted
to feel more secure as a woman,
be it because they worked odd
hours, lived in a shady neigh
borhood, or just wanted to be a
more confident and self-reliant
woman. At the end of the course
we reviewed what we had said
to see if we reached our goals,
and I must say that not only did
we succeeded at doing so, but
we went above and beyond our
expectations.
One thing stressed through
out the course was that no men
could be involved in our train
ing, with the exception of our
male instructors. We could not
practice with a male, and males
were unable to attend any of the
four sessions. “Unfortunately,
it is your boyfriend, husband or
even your friend that you might
one day have to defend yourself
against,” said Sainz.

The course was not only fun,
but truly effective. The tech
niques we were taught are func
tional and for the most part easy to
do. The key to the course is prac
tice - practicing the techniques as
well as practicing saying no. As
fun as it was, we were still able
to take away much more than any
of us expected. “We’re not sup
posed to be tough. It’s good to
know I can defend myself ... I
learned much more than I thought
I could,” said Jennifer Nowothy,
a senior at CSUSM. ‘Tm aware
of everything now,” said Tracey
Veres, a freshman at CSUSM.
The final class meeting is a
simulation. “You will be able to
practice everything you learn. If
you freeze this is the place to do
it, so we can coach you through it
and hopefully prevent you from
freezing if a situation were to
really occur,” said Sainz. During
the simulation, the two instruc
tors, Officer Mario Sainz and
Officer Marlin Estepa, as well
as retired Officer John Smithers,
an instructor of instructors of
R.A.D., all suited up and simu
lated attacking;us so we could
practice what we learned. Bar
bara Sainz and Geraldine Smith
ers, both certified instructors,
made sure that the scenarios were
safe and that we were using the
techniques practiced to our full
advantage.
At least half of the class was
so excited about their end results
that they want to be able to
teach women the art of R.A.D.
by becoming R.A.D. instructors.
These women also spoke of form
ing a club that would enable them
to continue practicing together
and promote the awareness of
sexual assault to other women on
campus. “We could post flyers
and have a booth like all the other
clubs ” said Carey Moya, junior
at CSUSM. “We could try to
hold sessions to educate people,
try to convince other women to
take R.A.D. and practice ” said
Nowothy.
R.A.D. is held at least three
times a year on the CSUSM
campus. “We try to hold as many
as possible, but space is limited,”
said Sainz. The fee to attend the
Basic R.A.D. course is only $20
and for this cost, any woman
at any age is able to attend as
many times as they’d like, with
no limitation on visits. During the
summer, an advanced course will
be offered, which enhances basic
skills and teaches participants
how to handle certain weapons.
According to Yvonne Muelman, an instructor at CSUSM
who took the course, “Previous
to R.A.D, I thought of myself
as a woman who carried herself
with confidence and could react
in a threatening situation. PostR.A.D., I know I carry myself
with confidence and can react
well in a threatening situation. It
confirms your ability to defend
yourself; and anyone who takes
it has the tools to never be a
victim.”
CSUSM’s ASI Attends Annual Conference in Sacramento
By JESSICA KRONE
Pride Staff Writer
CSUSM’s Associated Students, Inc.
(ASI) attended the California Higher Edu
cation Student Summit’s annual confer
ence the weekend of March 4 to lobby
against student tuition* fee increases and
to support the Facilities Bond Measure.
The forum, held this year in Sacramento,
was open to all California State Univer
sity (CSU) student representatives. The
attendees participated in leadership work
shops, listened to guest speakers and vis
ited with legislators who represent the San
Diego area.
ASI members were informed during
the conference that the budget deficit Cal
ifornia faces “will require many [educa
tional] programs across the state to be
cut and budgets to be reduced,” accord
ing to the California State Student Asso
ciation (CSSA) press release. During their
visits with members of several legislative
offices, ASI members strongly urged those
in power not to increase student fees.
“If tuition fees are increased, this will
decrease accessibility and affordability
for students,” said Jocelyn Brown, ASI
vice president of External Affairs, who
attended the conference.
. A similar situation occurred in the
early 1990s, during the last budget crisis,
and, according to the CSSA press release,
fees for the CSU “skyrocketed and many
students were forced to delay or cancel

their plans to attend a post-secondary
institution.”
“We’re afraid that can happen again,”
said Brown.
ASI created a letter-writing campaign
and sent each California senator a letter,
urging the protection of school budgets,
noting the adverse affect California stu
dents sustained in the early 1990s because
of budget cuts. According to the ASI
letter, “It is a known fact that a budget cut
of any percentage would jeopardize the
education of the CSU’s 380,000 currently
enrolled students.”
The tuition increase has not been pro
posed, nor is it known if and when it
will be. “If legislators are committed to
improving California, we can hope that
they would try to increase, not decrease,
education spending,” said Erik Roper, a
member of ASI’s External Affairs Com
mittee, who attended the conference.
The other issue ASI lobbied for was
the Higher Education Facilities Bond Mea
sure. This bond was proposed to provide
funds for the improvement of CSU cam
puses. This multi-year bond will “enable
the CSU to fund projects on a lump-sum
basis, which will allow campuses to map
out the planning, design and construction
phases of a project all at one time,” accord
ing to a CSSA press release.
“We can continue to grow if we
make higher education a priority, espe
cially with the current construction taking
place on campus,” Roper said.

�Faculty Member Goes H ollywood - Josephine
K eating Writes Screenplay D epicting Navajo Life
By SYBILLE HERWIG
Pride Staff Writer
Josephine Keating, professor
and student teacher advisor for the
College of Education at Cal State
San Marcos, has attracted Holly
wood producer Travis Clark with
her screenplay “Spider Woman”
- a story about the cultural rich
ness and mysteries of the Navajo
people in New Mexico. Keating
and Clark plan to shoot the movie
for the big screen this summer.
Along with her Navajo friend
Dolores Brown, Keating has been
working on “Spider Woman” for
a few years now. “For a long
time I’ve thought to do a story
about Navajo women, because
the women that I’ve worked with
in Thoreau (New Mexico) were
just so impressive.” Keating, who
has written many stage plays,
explained that the motivation for
writing a screenplay was based
on the simple fact that, ‘‘you
really can’t separate Navajo cul
ture from the land. They go
together really intimately.”
Growing up in a 100-percent
white suburb of Sacramento in the
1950s, Keating felt an early urge
to explore cultural diversity. Her
intense interest in Native Ameri
can culture emerged throughout
her three years of volunteer work
on an Indian mission in central
Washington. Not only did she find
passion for her work, but also for
her co-worker Jo Keating, an edu
cation teacher at CSUSM. Their
romance soon resulted in mar
riage, and together they decided
to change setting and follow
their friends to America’s big
gest Indian reservation in New
Mexico to teach at a Navajo High
School. For 22 years they lived
and worked on the reservation in
a little town named Thoreau.
The fictional story “Spider
Woman,” which is set in the same
New Mexican location in which
Keating used tp work and live,
is centered around three gener
ations of women in a Navajo
family, although, according to
Keating, “there are lots of guys
in it, too.” The main character
is a young woman in her twen
ties, who was adopted by a white
family when she was a baby, and
who later decides to go back to her
roots and find her Navajo family.
The storyline is reflected in the
title of the screenplay: “Spider
Woman.” According to Navajo
mythology, Keating explained,
there is a very powerful entity
called spider woman, who lives
on spider rock in Arizona. She is
part of the Navajo creation story,
in which she helps two lost broth
ers find their father. In Keating’s
screenplay, it is the young Navajo
woman who travels to Arizona in
order to approach spider women
for help to find her family.
Keating proudly explained,
“We’ve been dealing with a pro
fessional producer who agreed to
produce the movie a year and a
half ago. He saw the script and
really liked it.” Clark, whose tele
vision and film credits include
“A Man Called Hawk” and “The
Court-Martial of Jackie Robin
son,” has been inlhe business for
25 years. According to Keating,
he got tired of the whole orga
nizational structure of big-budget productions and decided to
go independent a few years ago.
“We were just lucky enough to
get our script to him at a point
where he was looking for proj
ects,” Keating said.
Clark promoted the script
among many friends in the media
business, all of who agreed to be
part of the project. At that point,
Keating realized that her dream
was about to become reality and
that she needed to start raising
some seed money. “In order to
attach people to a project and
do some other very basic preproduction and put together a
business plan, you need some
money!”
Friends, family, co-workers
and other teachers in the com
munity were the initial investors,
and so Keating was able to raise
an initial $ 80,000, which covered
the business plan and enabled her
to sign director Charles Mills and
a couple of actors.
For Mills, who has been a
cinematographer for many years
in the entertainment industry,
the screenplay “Spider Woman”
will be his first directing job.
Mills surely will be able to draw
from his big-budget studio expe
riences, like Beverly Hills Cop II
and the independent film Boyz in
the Hood, for which he received
awards for cinematography.
Keating said, “We haven’t
cast any of the Navajo parts yet
and, of course, that’s going to be
the vast majority. But we have
cast two of the supporting roles
that are non-Navajo.” One of
the more recognizable actors is
Richard Grieco, who did a lot
of television in the 80s, includ
ing the hit-series “Booker” and
“21 Jump Street.’’ Because of
his recent work in many indepen
dent movies, Grieco found fame
and fortune in Europe. Although
he is better known abroad than
in the States, Keating explained,
“One of the considerations we
look for in putting together the
business plan is to bring people
on board that, when we go to sell
the distribution rights for Europe
and Japan and so on, there are
names that those distributors rec
ognize.”
Another supporting role has
been given to actor David
Strathaim, who gained his work
ing experience in dozens of
movies and TV sedes, including
the film L.A. Confidential.
While Keating plans to begin
shooting in New Mexico this
summer, she and her production
team are still faced with a lot
of fundraising work in order to
cover the movie’s costs. Keating
explained, “the two things we are
working on are a distribution deal
and the financing. To actually
finish pre-production, shoot the
movie, do post-production and
some marketing, we figure the
budget for that is going to be $1.2
million.”
She also emphasized the
amazing location of the produc
tion location. “The area we are
going to shoot is just absolutely
magnificent. It’s gorgeous!”
Keating has confidence in
“Spider Woman’s” success on the
big screen: “We’ve got two name
actors signed and all the other
people in the business plan have
resumes as long as your arm.
They are just really experienced
people.”

By MIKE PARDINI
Pride Staff Writer
Want to get away for the
weekend but don’t have the cash
for Hawaii? Well, how about
Santa Barbara? I know what
you’re thinking. Santa Barbara.
Who wants to drive four hours
each way? Well you don’t have
to. You can take Amtrak for as
little as $15 each way, which is
relatively the same as gas, maybe
even cheaper.
Amtrak offers things that a
car doesn’t: reclining seats, pil
lows, AC/DC plug in outlets and
your choice of many alcoholic
beverages, as well as food. The
train is a great substitute for driv
ing to Santa Barbara for many
reasons. One particular reason
that jumps to my mind is LA
traffic on a Friday afternoon. Not
only LA traffic, but you also get
great coastal views the whole
way up, that may include views
of dolphins and, at this time O f
year, whales.
The best way to get started
on your weekend adventure is to
plan if you’re going to stay for
one or two nights. If you’re going
to stay two nights, definitely try
and leave as early as possible on
Friday. If not, leave early Sat
urday morning. Once yOu get
to Santa Barbara the possibilities
are endless.
If you like beaches, I suggest
that you get off on the Carpinteria exit and walk directly across
the street and go to Carpinteria
State Beach. If you choose to do
this, you will have about two to
three hours to kill, which can
be spent on the beach or walk
ing around the little downtown.
After that time, you can catch the
later train and continue on your
A
downtown mall, art galleries and
trendy clothing shops. If. that’s
not your scene, check out out a
matinee, that only costs $4.50,
in the plaza with your student
ID. Once your movie or windowshopping is over; the daylight will
turn into night, and this is when
the real fun starts.
Santa Barbara’s downtown
goes off on Friday and Saturday
nights. There are 18 bars and
five clubs on State Street. No
matter what your style, whether
you like to get dressed up or
not, State Street has something to
BREAK?
Santa Barbara has something for
everyone. My idea is to get out of
San Diego for the weekend and
enjoy everything that the Califor
nia Coast has to offer.
The trains leave Solana Beach
daily at four different times, any
where from 6:45 a.m. to 6:33 p.m.
Solana Beach is the only Amtrak
station in San Diego County that
lets you leave your car for free
for up to one week. All trains
I
k
e
take approximately five hours to
reach Santa Barbara.
For exact arrival and depar
ture times, call 1-800-USARAIL. For cheap motels and
hotels in Santa Barbara I suggest

The train lets you off right on
State Street, which is the main
street in downtown Santa Bar

State Street is 13 blocks long and
offers artsy coffeehouses, sushi

fun. Once on State Street, you
have many options, including the

trendy clubs such as Joe’s Cafe,
Q’s, So Ho, Wildcat Lounge,
Madison’s and Roy. The more
upscale places have covers rang

pretty comparable to downtown
San Diego, and if you want to go
to the more trendy places you’re
going to have to dress like it.

�Surf Team ends First Regular Season
JOY WHITMAN
for The Pride
The Cal State San Marcos’
Surf team competed in its last
regular season event on Feb. 24
in Huntington Beach. Key surf
ers included Jeff Fairbanks, who
earned 15 points, George Demarino with 14 points and Ryan
McHenry, who earned 11 points.
The team placed seventh
overall with a total of 23 points.
Despite a lingering cold, Dema-
rino, the team’s bodyboarder,
won his first heat and also
claimed his first victory since his
return to competition. He per
formed well in following rounds
and advanced to finals, earning
third place overall in the College
Bodyboarding Division.
Fairbanks looked great in his
first two rounds of the longboard
competition and received two
consecutive first places. In round
three, Fairbanks just missed the
transfer spot and did not advance
to finals.
McHenry performed well for
the first two rounds but just
could not get any open waves to
help advance him to round three.
Despite the absence of Captain
Dave Kincannon, who has been
out for the past two competi
tions with a broken leg, and the
absence of Julie Russell, who had
prior commitments, the CSUSM
team placed 8th overall in the
regular season.

Saint Patrick’s Day entailed
drinking in more sun rays, waves
and wins than alcohol for the Cal
State San Marcos’ Surf Team.
The State Championships for the
NSSA College Team Season was
held on March 17 at Churches
Beach in San Clemente, located
just north of the San Onofre
power plant. It was .an exciting
competition between rivals Sad
dleback and Mira Costa Com
munity Colleges, but two top
seeds helped Saddleback clinch
the title.
Contributing to Saddleback’s
success, Coach Mark Mackleroy
replaced two members of his
team with exceptional standouts
who regularly compete for the
Pro Surfing Tour of America
(PSTA) between the regular and
postseason.
The first round was a little
intimidating for CSUSM, since
only seven of nine members were
available to compete, but the
team pulled through with the
talent of those who did compete
and placed 8th out of 18 teams,
which was good enough to qual
ify for nationals.
For CSUSM, Jeff Fairbanks
and Scott Chebagia each earned
12 points, but still missed advanc
ing from the third round into
the quarter finals. Bodyboarder
George Demarino and longboarder Dustin Franks gave ter
rific performances and advanced
to finals, placing third and fourth,
respectively.
The CSUSM team earned a
total of 48 points, which was not
far from the fifth-place finisher
UCSB Vector, who racked up 56
points overall.
After placing in the top 12
in the State Championship, the
surf team has earned a spot
in the Nationals, which will be
held over the summer in Dana
Point and will see schools from
across the country compete for
the national title.
With the predicted return

Freshman Jason E. Williams
is proudly representing Cal State
San Marcos as one of the best
track and field hurdlers in the
nation. Williams has recently
competed in several meets, con
tending with some of the top
schools and competitors in the
country.
Williams placed third in the
400-meter intermediate hurdles
at the Trojan Invitational at USC,
with a time of 53.43 seconds.
This mark qualified him for the

insisted Williams.

placed first in both the Benny
Brown Invitational at Cal State
Fullerton with a mark of 52.52
and at the San Diego State Uni
versity Aztec Invitational with a
52.97. In the California/Nevada
State Championship, Williams
finished with a 52.10 mark,
which placed him second.
Williams has been invited to
the Mount Sac Relays in Walnut,
which he is really looking for
ward to. “All the top colleges
and elite runners in the world
will be there,” said Williams.
Williams also faces the chal
lenge of improving his times,
because he does not always com
pete with high-level competitors.
At this point, CSUSM is not yet
well known for its athletics.
“The great thing about track
is that it doesn’t matter what

you put up a good time. People

family where grades and educa

find time for school. Sometimes,
I miss practice to study for a
test, but my coach knows I will
make up for it,” said Williams.
His coach Wes Williams (no
relation) has. been an inspiration
to him and is the major reason
why he transferred from Colo
rado State to run for the Cou
gars. He received a scholarship
at Colorado State, but for per
sonal reasons and because of the
cold weather, Williams decided
to come to San Marcos to be
trained by his new mentor, coach
Williams. His ultimate goal is
to at least make it to the Olym
pic trials in 2004. At the tender
age of 20, Williams is already

“Mrs. Clarke’s gift will make
a lasting difference in the lives
of many young student athletes,”
said Barbara Bashein, who serves
as CSUSM’s athletic director
and vice president for External
Affairs. “Her generosity will
enable them to earn college
degrees.” Nonetheless, there are
no plans for increasing the ath

plans for adding another inter

Bashein, in order for another
sport to be added, a donor must

“The team this year is a
lot stronger and we have more
sprinters this year,” said Assis
tant Coach Wes Williams Jr.
Returning sprinters includeAnthony Blacksher, Lucy Downey
and Amy Cutshaw. They are not
only returning, but have been
with the team since it started
~
three years ago. “They make the
team more like a team,” said Wil
liams.
The sprinters count with a
great athlete from the Colorado
State University, Jason Williams.
Williams, has already qualified
for the NAIA Championships.
“He is an outstanding athlete and
has a very promising future,”
said Wes Williams. In addition,
Autumn Wright has also had a
great performance and currently
has the best time on the West
Coast. She transferred from Palomar College.
Coaches often times have
great goals for their teams and
CSUSM is not an exception.
Coach Williams wants to have
15-17 sprinters qualified for the
NAIA Championship.
And
Coach Steve Scott wants the
same, along with at least four
All-American athletes. It is pos
sible, since the team boasts three
returning All-Americans.

The Pride Literary Supplement
CALL FOR PAPERS
The Pride Literary Supplement (PLS), a publication of The Pride, is again seeking student writing representing
inquiry and research across all academic disciplines pursued at CSUSM.
Since its inception, California State University at San Marcos has committed itself to the cultivation of student
writing. Across the disciplines, at every academic level, students are required to write and professors are asked to take
writing seriously. The student newspaper would like to publish expository, critical, and theoretical writing as much
as creative writing, poems, stories or film scripts. The PLS will consider manuscripts of up to 3000 words that both
exemplify excellent inquiry and research in their discipline (s) and that able readers from outside that discipline to read
with pleasure and understanding. Appropriate faculty judges the quality of research or creative writing. Accessibility
is determined by the editor(s) of The Pride or their designated representatives.

Submissions are currently being accepted for the upcoming Pride Literary Supplement. All forms of literary writ
ing —expository, critical, theoretical and creative writing —are encouraged.
Authors should avoid highly technical language, critical jargon, foreign, or mathematical language. When technical
terms are essential, they should be explained to the reader. References to critical literature, where necessary, should be
parenthetical. APA, MLA, Chicago, and all other formats are welcome as long as the paper represents the appropriate
academic discipline.
The PLS favors student writing and will privilege student manuscripts that are submitted with the recommendation
of a faculty member who has pursued research in the student’s field of study or published texts of a related kind. Staff
and faculty contributions will also be considered.
Photos or images (black and white preferred) of other artwork will also be accepted as an enhancement or as an
alternative to manuscripts. Please submit images and text using the following instructions.
For judging and layout purposes:
Submit a blind copy, with your name appearing only on a cover sheet and essay title, your mailing address, e-mail,
phone number, and major or graduate field of study to:
The Pride Mailbox
“Student and Residential Life” Office
Commons 207
Also* E-mail one electronic file attachment (MS Word) to pride@csusm.edu. Entries submitted without an elec
tronic copy will not be reviewed. An electronic copy on a PC-formatted disk will also be accepted. Manuscripts or
disks will not be returned.
Deadline for submissions: May 2,2001.

URGENT HEALTH NOTICE
TO ALL NON-MANAGEMENT CSUSM EMPLOYEES
I was repeatedly denied health benefits while on disability leave, extending into retire
ment. This was immoral and possibly illegal. *
I urge each of you to contact your benefits administrator and request, no, DEMAND, a
sworn, notarized statement stating that your benefits will not be denied while off work for
any reason. Do not be fooled by anybody saying, “ We are here to help you.”
My health was bad during these denials, is poor now, and is unknown for the future.
It is very depressing not being able to see a doctor and/or psychiatrist and/or to get
medications when desperately needed.
If you are contemplating litigation against CSUSM for any reason, I will volunteer, for
free, as an expert witness, concerning my relationship with CSUSM from 8/20/92 to
present.
REMEMBER: Your health and the health of your loved ones may be in jeopardy. Please
contact your union rep as well.
WHAT IF?
If you are a female non-management employee or a male employee with a spouse or
otherwise, what would happen if you were denied medical benefits, as was done to me?
If pregnant, this could result in a miscarriage, stillbirth, or with a newborn who is
critically ill, a premature death. Either way, in my personal opinion, this would be
IMMORAL MANSLAUGHTER!!!!
I re-urge each of you to get a sworn, notarized statement from your benefits administrator,
co-signed by President Gonzales, specifying that your benefits will not be denied while
on leave.
Again, I will be glad to appear as a volunteer, free (redundancy intended), expert witness
concerning my personal experiences from 11/90, 8/92, 9/01, to the present.
have also paid out an estimated $2500 in dental bills because of denial of dental benefits.
I consider this ad and the one above to be my moral obligation. One can deny the truth,
but the truth cannot be denied!
