CSU approves 10 percent hike in student fees
Undergraduate tuition to increase $252 next semester
BY KELLY CORRIGAN
Pride Staff Writer
On March 14, the CSU Board
of Trustees voted to increase
student fees by 10% for the
2007-08 academic year. As a
result, undergraduate students
will pay $252 more. Student fees
increased by 14% in the 2004-05
academic year. In the 2005-06
academic year, fees increased by
8%. Governor Arnold Schwarzenegger provided an additional
$54.4 million for the 20062007 academic year in order to
eliminate the 8% increase that
was originally proposed by the
Chancellor Reed and the Board
of Trustees.
For years, the CSU system
of higher education has been
looked to an example of quality
education at an affordable price.
With 23 campuses, the CSU is
made up of 417,000 students
and 46,000 faculty and staff
members. It began in 1961 and
annually, 84,000 students obtain
degrees from the CSU.
In 2004, Chancellor Reed
cut the budget by $11 million. In order to eliminate the
fee increase,* Chancellor Reed
would have to eliminate salary
increases for top executives and
compensation packages for professors who have either retired,

or have gone on to work outside of the CSU. From October 2005 to January 2007, CSU
Presidents, combined, received
a total salary raise of $919,270.
All CSU Presidents receive compensation that includes housing,
car and salary fees. From July
2005 to July 2006, CSU Presidents, combined, received a 21%
compensation increase, totaling
$1,312,982.
Chair of the CSU Board of
Trustees Roberta Achtenberg,
said, "Student fees are part of
the overall revenue mix that is
needed to sustain our outstanding university system. The CSU
receives its revenues basically
from state General Funds and
fee revenues.
Currently, employee compensation for all employees accounts
for 74 percent of the expenditure
budget. The trustees are committed to bringing all salaries up
to market rate in order to remain
competitive. We cannot move
forward on this effort without
either a larger portion of the state
General Fund or an increase in
student fees."
Dennis Armstrong of the CSU
stated, "The Governor's budget
assumes $174.5 million from
the state General Fund and $123
million in fee revenue, based on
a 10 percent increase in student
fees and fee revenue associated
with a 2.5 percent enrollment
growth." Armstrong added, "To
eliminate the fee increase, the
legislature and Governor would
need to provide an additional
$65.2 million of state general
fund revenue. If any portion
of the fees are 'bought out,' the
CSU Board of Trustees would
rescind that portion of the fee
increase," said Armstrong.
history program also requires
two sets of official transcripts,
three letters of recommendation, a 750-word statement, and
a formal writing example.
The history program marks
a significant step in CSUSM's
history. With the arrival of this
new program CSUSM becomes
even more distinguished and
unique for current and future
Cougars. The program will be
the first master's degree combining history and media in the
country. The program will also
be the only program outside of
the east cost offering these specific studies. "Students pursuing CSUSM's Master of Arts in
History will not only master a
specific historical field but also
acquire skills in new media and
technology. Our degree allows
students to tailor their coursework to their individual historical interests and technological needs. Students will have
the option of completing their
degree with either a traditional
master's thesis or an extensive
project involving technology and
history. Additionally, the program will provide opportunities
for internships and experience
teaching history in the college
classroom" states the CSUSM
History Department's webpage.

From STUDENT, page 1
students on the CSU's past and the
CFA's reasons for going on strike.
It was noted that since 2002, Chancellor Reed and the Board of Trustees
have raised student fees by 76%. The
administration has plans to increase
the fees by 10% through 2010. It was
also noted that 10% of the CSU budget
comes from fee increases and that
80% of the budget comes from the
state. This information proved that the
increases in student fees do not affect
the salary budget for faculty. Although
some believe that the increases in
student fees add to faculty salaries,
the two are unrelated. Student fees,
students learned at the meeting, will
increase by 91% in the nextfiveyears.
Dr. Linda Pershing of the Women's Studies department discussed
how the department has seen only
one new professor since 2001. Dr.
Pershing mentioned that the Women's Studies department will lose one
more professor this spring as a result
of California's cost of living and
the inadequate pay. "We're losing
people," Dr. Pershing said. "We can't
attract new faculty." Stubbs added,
"It does affect us. If teachers don't
want to work for the CSU, classes
will be cancelled."
Stubbs emphasized that students
are here to learn from professors
who want to be a part of the CSU
as much as students do. "60% of
Cal State professors come from the
CSU," Stubbs said.
Upon learning that the CFA will
go orf strike before the end of the
semester, one student asked Stubbs,
"How do we show support?" Stubbs
replied, "We're not standing behind
them. We're standing beside them.
Sign a commitment card. Pledge to
support the two day rolling strike
and not cross the picket line."
Evelyn Henriquez, a member of
ASI's President's Cabinet, discussed.
ASI's neutral position on the CFA
strike. Henriquez mentioned how
ASI's Board of Directors did not
ask the President's Cabinet for their
stance on the strike. "So they've
basically silenced a vast majority of
students who have power," said Henriquez. Upon hearing this, a student
"We're not standing
behind them. We're
standing beside
them."
-Angela Stubbs
President of CSUSQE
from the crowd asked, "Is there any
way to overturn this vote on ASI?"
Henriquez and Stubbs agreed that
there wasn't any way to overturn the
strike. "On other campuses, ASI is
supportive," Stubbs said. "But some
are taking a neutral stance."
During ASI's March 5 meeting,
Vice President of External Affairs,
Jeremy Mills stated ASI's resolution
on the CFA and the CSU collective
bargaining. Mills said, "Basically, we
are taking the stance that students have
no place in the collective bargaining
process. There's no way for us to truly
know what's going on in the collective bargaining process because they
do have closed session meetings and
the only information we get is when
either side walks out of that meeting
and spins it and so it's very hard for us
to get away from the emotional pleas
and get down to the nitty-gritty of
what the business is all about. And so
basically we're saying that we understand that [faculty] is trying to get a
contract negotiation, we understand
that it's going to start possibly affecting our student constituency groups.
We think that [faculty] should get paid
a fair and equitable rate."
Mills added, "Not necessarily us
on this campus so much, but on other
campuses, [students] have been
extremely pulled in both directions
by their administration and their CFA
because for both sides if they get the
students on their side, they have a
stronger likelihood of getting what
they want. We're basically saying
we're taking a position of that we
don't have a position because there's
no way we could have one because
it's too complex for us to process."
Regarding the time in which students will learn of the strike taking
place, one student asked, "How
much heads up will we have?"
Stubbs replied, "You might have a
week, you might have a day before."
Regarding Chancellor Reed, another
student asked, "How will this affect
him?" Stubbs explained that the
strike on Twin Oaks Valley Road
would generate media attention,
immediately resulting in politicians
enforcing change. Each campus will
sporadically participate in two day
rolling strikes until a negotiation is
reached. The strikes will not occur
in the same two days. One student
asked, "Why not do all the strike in
two days?" An SQUE representative
from CSULA answered, "Then he
knows we've done it already, and it
gives the other campuses the chance
to see who's on strike."

Track Team Looks
Great at Occidental
Distance Classic
March 16, 2007. It was another strong performance for the Cougar track team on Friday,
as the squad qualified six more athletes for
Nationals at the Occidental Distance Classic.
On the men's side, three Cougars earned
their trip to the Nationals Championships.
They're the first CSUSM men to qualify since
the 2005 season.
Leading the way was Juan Mejia. The cross
country star competed in his first 10k run of
the track season, and certainly did not disappoint. He finished 2nd, posting a time of
31:0X08.
Two 5,000-meter runners qualified as well
for the men. Sergio Gonzalez posted a time of
14:58.70, and Mike Crouch ran 15:11.16. They
finished 3rd and 5th, respectively.
Finally, though Tony Guadagnini didn't
qualify for Nationals, he gave a strong performance in the 1,500m,finishing5th with a time
of3:57.83.
Not to be outdone, three women qualified
for Nationals as well on Friday. Morgan Sjogren, Emily Jones, and Whitney Patton all ran
great times and will join the numerous Cougar
women who have already earned their way to
the Championships thus far.
Competing in the 10k, Patton was tremendous. She won the meet easily, and her time of
37:44.20 was over a minute better than the top
qualifying standard.
Meanwhile, Patton and Jones competed in
the steeplechase andfinishedfirstand second,
respectively. Patton ran 11:22.24, and Jones
finished right behind her with an 11:24.64.

big way, as Scott Shapiro knocked in
the firstrun with a single* Austin Way
followed that up with an RBI base hit of
his own to make the score 2-0,
Then Central Christian starter Greg
Daugherty began to struggle, hitting
Terry Moritz with a pitch to load the
bases. After a pop-out, Ian Chatfield
was hit by a pitch to push across a
run, and Jason Hinton walked to plate
another. The next run came across
when Ricardo Moran was hit by a pitch.
Tristan Gale then delivered a two-RBI
double, knocking Daugherty out of the
game. But the Cougars weren't done, as
Shapiro walked, and Way delivered his
second hit of the inning - this time a
double that scored two more.
When the dust settled, the Cougars

Pride Staff Writer
This first ever season of the baseball and softball programs at CSUSM
are showing promise of a bright
future. Head coaches Jennifer Milo,
softball, and Dennis Pugh, baseball,
are both encouraged by the growth
of their teams. At inception, success
in terms of wins is not a true indicator of potential. Both squads have
improved on thefieldas this year has
progressed. Cougar baseball had a
terrific showing in the PLNU Spring
Classic earlier this month, and the
softball team has been hanging tough
lately, picking up a couple wins and
enduring some close losses in the past
seven games.
CSUSM softball picked up an early
win against then #10 Concordia, but
Coach Milo knew it would not be so
easy. As of March 16, their record
stood at 3-15. The Cougars have lost
three games by one run in the last
couple of weeks and have been highly
competitive as the season wears on.
Coach Milo stated, "At the midway
point I'd hoped the won/loss record
would be a little better but we're
happy. After a rocky beginning with
a lot of youth on defense, this team is
playing much better right now."
Following a hard fought game on
Saturday March 10, when the Cougars
lost at Division 1 opponent and local
college USD, Coach Milo exclaimed,
"Against a D1 opponent, we were the
better team on the field." The Cougars lost that game 4-3 after leading
3-0 late in the game. Earlier this year,
USD handed CSUSM an 8-0 mercy
rule loss. The goal of this team in its
inaugural season is to show improvement, and it has. Some pleasant surprises for the Cougar softball team
are Freshmen Erica Coehlo and Elizabeth Bush. Coehlo, labeled "Miss
Versatile" by Coach Milo, is hitting
.306 and is third on the team in runs
scored with 7. "Her main duty coming
in was as a pitcher, but she can play
anywhere," said Coach Milo. Elizabeth Bush is batting a robust .353 on a
team that hits .239 collectively. Bush
leads the team with 11 runs scored,
and is tied for second in RBI with 8.
The Cougar baseball team has not
only grown as a unit, the results have
translated into victories in the past
month. After an 0-7 start, the Cougars have gone 7-7. "I feel great, the
team is playing much better, but we
have a lot of catching up to do," said
Coach Pugh. The PLNU Spring Classic, held March 5 through 8, finished
with the Cougars going 3-1. Coach
Pugh stated, "We played better teams
to start the season." And while they
have played well against lesser competition as of late, Pugh is "looking
forward to how we rebound. Over the
next six or seven weeks we have a lot
of tougher games. I'm excited to see
how we play against them the second
time around."
The offense of the Cougars is the
strong point, and the young pitching
staff is getting more comfortable as
the season progresses. SR Scott Shapiro leads the team in RBI with 19
and is batting .329. Tristan Gale is
leading the team with a .347 average as a junior. Palomar CC transfer,
junior Terry Moritz has been solid,
hitting .324 and is tied with Shapiro and Gale for the team lead in
HR with 4. As to the recent success
Coach Pugh responded, "The kids are
getting along. I'm really happy with
their progression." Along with the 77 record the past month the Cougars
have only lost one game by more than
3 runs in that span. This team is in
just about every game, and with a few
key hits or a couple defensive plays
late in games, they could have a much
better record. Coach Pugh encouraged, "Get away from the won/loss
record." As for the future of this program, Coach Pugh is very optimistic
saying that "recruiting is going well,
but it would really help if we had our
own facility."
The two programs are moving in
the right direction. Both head coaches
have local area roots enabling them
to bring in some talented kids. Getting through this first year of growing pains is a learning experience
for coaches and players alike. With
a year under their belt, the youth of
these teams will continue to gel,
while incoming talent will serve to
make them a formidable match-up
against anybody. For more information on the Cougar baseball and softball programs, or any other CSUSM

�T HE BATTLE FOR A FREE INTERNET
Viacom sues Google for copyright laws
BY AMANDA ANDREEN
Pride Staff Writer
One billion dollars isn't just
spare change for Google Inc.
On Tuesday, March 13, Viacom,
the mutli-billion dollar media
corporation that houses MTV,
VH1, Comedy Central, Nickelodeon, Dream Works and Paramount Pictures, filed a $1 billion
lawsuit against Google Inc., and
its trendy video hosting website, YouTube. The purpose of
the billion-dollar suit, one might
ask? Viacom claims YouTube is
in violation of extensive copyright infringement by hosting
Unauthorized and copyrighted
entertainment clips; and not
only that, but also that YouTube
is in violation at least 160,000
times. Additionally, since the
claim was filed, Viacom has
cited upwards of 50,000 more
clips that fall into the same category. Plus, of the initial 160,000
clips, Viacom estimates that the
clips have been viewed at least
1.5 billion times.
The lawsuit, which was
handed over just six weeks after
Viacom requested for YouTube
to take off at least 100,000 of
the unauthorized clips, was filed
in the U.S. District Court in
New York. To date, the swelling
opposition between YouTube
and Viacom is the largest altercation between a key media corporation and the broadly wellliked video site purchased by
Google last November for $1.65
billion.
"Over the past decade, the
emergence of broadband networks, Internet protocol a nd'
inexpensive wireless networks
has revolutionized the way
Americans inform and entertain themselves," began the
complaint issued by Viacom.
"Entrepreneurs have made fortunes providing the networks,
the tools and the creative works
that have fueled this revolution. But these same innovations have also been misused to
fuel an explosion of copyright
infringement by exploiting the
inexpensive duplication and distribution made possible by digital technology." The complaint
continues, "YouTube has harnessed technology to willfully
infringe copyrights on a huge
scale, depriving writers, composers and performers of the
rewards they are owed for effort
and innovation, reducing the
incentives of America's creative
industries, and profiting from
the illegal conduct of others as
well. Using the leverage of the
Internet, YouTube appropriates
the value of creative content on
a massive scale for YouTube's
benefit without payment or
license, YouTube's brazen disregard of the intellectual property
laws fundamentally threatens
not just [Viacom], but the economic underpinnings of one of
the most important sectors of
the United States economy."
In response, Google issued a
statement saying that it's "confident YouTube has respected
the legal rights of copyright
holders." Trying to fall back the
Digital Millennium Copyright
Act (DMCS) of 1998* Google's
lawyers are hoping the DMCA
will protect them. Furthermore,
even though YouTube has been
Consistently plagued with unauthorized material appearing on
the site, YouTube sticks to its
guns in repeating that it does not
control the site's content because
users post the content, and have
control over what they post.
With*the motto of "Broadcast
Yourself," and millions of users,
it is no doubt that the majority
of CSUSM students have visited or even fréquent YouTube
and its ,variety of user-posted
content. So, what does the billion-dollar lawsuit mean for students? It might mean no more
3 minute clips .of "The Daily
Show with Jon Stewart," or clips
of last week's "Colbert Report;"
In fact, it very well could mean
no movie trailers of clips from
DreamWorks Animation favorites like "Shrek," "Sharktale,"
"Madagascar," and "Shrek 2;"
all of which happen to be owned

by Viacom. It could mean limited access, or even less access
to entertaining, political and
informative videos. Going even
further, it might even mean
money for students and users.
Even though Google and YouTube offer free accounts and
free access to users, should the
lawsuit stay intact even after the
appeal of the DMCA, there is
no guarantee that there won't be
future lawsuits, and unseen costs
cast onto users. While there is
no statement or public talk of
Google or YouTube charging
users, there is no telling what
the future of the Internet and
the user interface of the mighty
search engine and its video sharing site will resort to if push
comes to shove. However, speculation aside, Google ensures
users that "We will certainly not
let this suit become a distraction
to the continuing growth and
strong performance of YouTube
and its ability to attract more
users, more traffic and build a
stronger community."
�Feeding the Meine erne on m m

Pride Staff Writer

Students tend to need a pick-me-up. Balancing classes, homework, exam preparation,
and a social schedule is a tall order. What do
you reach for when the feet are dragging and
the eyes are drooping? Instant energy. Coffee
drinks will never be replaced, but the energy
drink craze has boomed in the last five years.
Red Bull got the ball rolling, and its success
has led to the invention of an array of brands
and flavors.
According to the official Red Bull website,
"To feel its effects at best, you should drink
it in times of increased mental and physical
strain, for example, on long sleep-inducl ing motorways, during intensive workjj| ing days, prior to demanding athletic
activities or before tests and exams.
It is recommended to drink one can
of Red Bull Energy Drink about 30
min before the start of a concentration task or the start of a race or game
in sports." Sounds like a pretty good
'choicl W ^xolfe^-fstutKftt.
There are two main on campus
sites to obtain a variety of
energy drinks. Tim and Sandra
Sabatini own and operate the
Campus Coffee Cart, which is
centrally located between the
Commons and Academic Hall.
Resting up against Science Hall,
the Campus Coffee Cart sells
snacks, sandwiches, and a bevy
of drinks. They carry roughly
15 different energy drinks, with
the cola flavored Rockstar, and
the original green label Monster, topping the list. Along
with the most popular, they
carry: Amp, Rockstar in guava
and orange, Monster Chaos,
Sobe, and sugar-free versions of
most. Sabatini said, "We listen
to the students and carry what
they recommend. Like Amp
(a Mountain Dew derivative),
we had requests to carry it and
now we do." Tim and Sandra
expressed that they encourage
student feedback and hope to
provide what the student body is
craving. According to Sabatini,
the Campus Coffee Cart sells "a
lot" of energy drinks from open
at 7 a.m., to close 5:30 p.m. MTh and 12:30 p.m. on Friday.
The second location for an
energy drink fix is Cougar
Corner. Conveniently located
inside The Dome, Cougar
Corner is run by Melanie
Neidens. Neidens said her most
popular energy drinks are original Monster, Red Bull, and newcomer Amp. Cougar Corner

An assortment of energy drinks available on
campus.
Neidens said, "If they ask we try it, [and] if it
doesn't move we don't bring it back." Cougar
Corner carries a wide variety with the fruity
versions selling slower than the originals. On
the recent increase in sales of energy drinks
Neidens said, "You are still getting vitamins,
Taurine, B12, and other natural energy."
Along with the two major outposts on
campus, energy drinks can also be found in
the nooks and crannys of the CSUSM campus.
Most Cofcl-Cola vending machines sell Rockstar, and locations include: Commons above the
bookstore, near the Office of Extended Studies
near the top parking lot, the second floor of Science Hall 2, and outside the first floor of Kellogg adjacent to the flag poles. Additionally,
there are a few Red Bull vending machines on
campus with one tucked in the corner outside
Markstein Hall with one right next to it that sells
Full Throttle Blue Demon, a new up-and-comer
according to Neidens. There is another Red Bull
machine in the hallway of the Dome, and the
Academic Hall side of Palm Court has another
vending machine for Full Throttle Blue Demon.
"I like the Monster Chaos," said senior Rachelle
Acker, "it is fruity and it tastes good." Acker is
a regular at the Campus Coffee Cart.
"I like the Monster Chaos," said junior Adam
Lowe. "It has a sweet citrus flavor kind of like
O J."
Choosing an energy drink to satisfy one's caffeine fix is becoming increasingly harder with
more choices and more locations to choose from.
Though energy drinks are different from coffee
which can cause a feeling of being weighed
down, and even a stomach ache, energy drinks
do carry their own side effects.
As energy drinks continue to sell fast at
CSUSM, it important to keep in mind the effects
energy drinks and the large amounts of caffeine they contain can have on one's health. Not
only can high caffeine consumption cause brief
changes in one's behavior, but it can also cause
hyperactivity, increased blood pressure, irregular heart beats, and unhealthy spikes in blood
sugar. Not to mention that caffeine is a highly
addictive substance. Caffeine is a stimulant for
the nervous system, providing the extra kick
we have all come to rely on, especially during
midterms. But, just like any other stimulant, its
effect does wear off eventually, and putting the
body into overdrive for an extended period of
time will begin to take its toll.
Thus, with the widespread popularity of
energy drinks on campus, and the rapid rate
at which students consume them, it is important to keep in mind that just because they are
called "energy" drinks, it does not mean they
are healthy or good for you.

�Jock Talk Letters to the Editor:
With Josh Traffic control on campus making drivers late to class
BY JOSH SANDOVAL
Pride Staff Writer
I had a dream a few nights ago about
what happened when the new Padres
manager met his team. This is how it
went:
Bud Black: "As the new manager, I
would like to discuss our plans heading into the season. First, lets call roll.
Adams, check. Bard, check. Barfield...
Barfield.. Josh Barfield?"
Trevor Hoffman: "IJh Skip, the boss
dealt him to Cleveland for Kouzmanoff."
Black: "Kouzma-who? Whatever,
I guess this is an old roster. Forget roll
call, lets do some introductions. You over
there with the reading glasses, what's
your name?"
Jake Peavy: "Skip, that's Greg Maddux.
He's only won four Cy Young Awards, 16
Gold Gloves, and a World Series championship."
Black: "I know, Jake. I'm just messing with Mad Dawg. We go way back.
I remember back on September 8, 1991
when I was with the Giants we beat
Maddux and the Cubs 4-3 with a four run
7th."
Cla Meredith: "Dang, Skip. How
old are you two? In 1991,1 was in little
league."
Black: "Don't worry about it. On to
other business. We have a gap in left field
that we need to fill. We have a number
of..."
David Wells: "Hey Bud, do I really
have to stick around for this? I mean, I'm
a pitcher, not an outfielder. Not to mention, happy hour starts in 10 minutes."
Black: "Just hang a little longer, David.
We'll get you out of here soon."
Terrmel Sledge: "Skip, I'd like to throw
my hat into the ring for the spot in left."
Black: "Tell me about yourself. Which
team were you with last season?"
Sledge: "I was with this team. I only
got into 38 games, but..."
_ Marcus Giles: "Skip, Brian just gave
me a wet willy."
Black: "Brian, leave your brother
alone."
Brian Giles: "He did it first."
Black: "So like I was saying. We need
a left fielder since Bochy took Roberts
and Klesko with him to the Bay."
Russell Branyan: "I can do it. I've
always wanted the chance to be an everyday player. I think I could hit 40 jacks if
just given the opportunity."
Black: "As good as 40 homers sounds,
it's your 200 strikeouts I'm afraid of."
Adrian Gonzalez: "Coach, I can play
left field and first base if you need me
to."
Black: "Gonzo, I wish I could write
your name twice in the everyday line-up,
because by the looks of last year's stats,
you and Piazza were the only offensive
threats. Speaking of Piazza, he's late to
the meeting."
Hoffman: "Sorry to bring this up, Skip.
But, the Boss let him go to Oakland."
Black: "Well, looks like we need to fill
that position too."
Chris Young: "Skip, I've worked out a
simple mathematical equation that will
result in a World Series championship
if Rob Bowen becomes our everyday
catcher."
Mike Cameron: "Chris, I know you
went to Princeton, but that's just dumb.
Where did you get this idea from?"
Young: "I got it from this guy named
Josh Sandoval. He seems to know what
he's talking about. He can be reached at
Sando026@csusm.edu."
On March 13, 2007 I arrived on
Campus around 8:45 that morning (the
regular time I arrive for a 9 AM class). I
turned on to Campus Way from Barham
Dr. I continued [turning} right onto
Campus View Dr. to head towards parking lot C. After waiting in a huge line
of traffic for almost [ten] minutes just to
turn right onto Craven Dr, the [police]
officer finally let the cars move. Then
while waiting to turn left into parking
lot C, another officer held the cars [there]
for almost [another] [four], to [five] minutes. I noticed that there are normally
one or two parking [attendants] directing
traffic in the morning, but on March 13,
there were actual police officers. These
officers may have been trying to help
move traffic along better, but had actually cause me (I am sure others as well)
to be late for class. While waiting in the
large line of cars, I had noticed there was
no pattern for the directions the officer
was giving, not giving cars in each direction a change to cross the intersection.
There has been less traffic without any
direction in the morning than with these
officers. The parking [attendant] that
usually directs traffic in the morning and
at [University] hour does a much better
job. Please keep the officers away from
traffic [direction;] it is only making more
traffic! -Dan Evans
28 California Legislators address CFA strike; urge CSU
(Mtfantta
legislature
STATE CAPITOL
SACRAMENTO, CALIFORNIA
March 12,2007
Dr. Charles Reed
Chancellor
California State University
401 Golden Shore
Long Beach, CA 90802
Dear Chancellor Reed:
As members of the California State Legislature we believe one of the most critical challenges facing
the California State University this year is the impending faculty strike. We are disappointed at
reports that after over 20 months of bargaining there is still no contract agreement with the
California Faculty Association.
As we know you are aware, CSU faculty salaries are much lower than faculty salaries at
comparable universities, and the average salary for CSU tenure-track faculty is actually lower than
the average salary of tenure-track faculty teaching at community colleges.
While you have argued that CSU campuses are strugglingfinancially,you awarded your
executives salary and benefit increases that average 23% over the last several years. Given your
administration's willingness to entertain salary increases for executives, we urge you to accept the
challenge of negotiating equitable increases for faculty as soon as possible and avoid any further
delays.
A few years ago you signed a Compact funding agreement with the Governor, hailing it as a
significant breakthrough to ensure CSU funding stability - an agreement that was reached without
your ever notifying the legislature of these discussions. Prior to t hat your administration ventured
on a colossal information technology project - again, without the advice and oversight of the
legislature - that was highly criticized in a state audit, for everything from its $660 million costs to
its inoperability and closed bidding process.
While we may not understand your reasons for such decisions, we view these as examples of
misplaced priorities that give little appreciation for the circumstances of faculty and students in
your system.
We, the undersigned members, urge you to settle this contract with your faculty. Your Compact
agreement was signed with the understanding that it would provide sufficient funding for CSU
campus needs, including the salaries of all its employees - n ot just executives. The CSU is a
teaching institution, and you must respect and nurture this mission above all else.
Now is the time to settle your differences with the faculty, before a strike occurs and before we
begin state budget hearings. We find a 20-month delay unacceptable. Given the number of critical
challenges facing the CSU, we encourage you to prioritize your efforts in the next few weeks to
focus on attending to the faculty's reasonable contract terms.
We await your reply.
Sincerely,
mstmmm&tfrxttt

�"Are you going to buy a sheep?" Idriss
inquired with a grin. In any other situation
this would seem to be a very odd question
indeed; however, this question was posed
during the run up to the Muslim holy day
of Eid Al-Adhha which involves a sheep
sacrifice. I was quite pleased that Idriss had
brought sheep into the conversation; after
aM,Twasvery curious about Muslim culture,
and throughout my three day stay Idriss (a
local guide) was more than happy to tell me
all about it. I decided to leave Marrakesh,
Morocco, to travel north to reach Fez, as I
had heard a lot of good things about the city.
The added allure of Fez being that I could
also visit the ancient Roman ruins of Volubilis. In addition to visiting Fez, I wanted
to stop off in Meknes and, time permitting,
I also hoped to spend a day in Casablanca,
which is almost on the way back to Marrakesh; well, not so much 'on the way' as a
few hours train ride to the coast. However,
first things first: I had to get from the train
station to my accommodation, a 400 yr. old
traditional Moroccan Riad.
A wild petite taxi ride later, and I was
dropped off at the Hotel Jamaiis near the
ancient walls of the old town Medina. The
entrance to Medina was too small for motor
vehicles, so I had to make my way to the
Riad through the uneven, high-walled
Medina passageways by foot. Luckily, it
was not hard to find, and when the large,
unassuming exteripr door was opened up—
i was completely blown away by what I saw.
Everything was covered in small colorful
mosaics, and in the center of the rectangular courtyard, a beautiful fountain bubbled
away soothingly. Four high interior walls
surrounded the courtyard. These walls contained all the rooms. Large mosaic-covered
columns supported the roof, while spectacular wooden shutters covered the various stained glass windows of the rooms. To
be honest, staying a Riad is the best way
to get a feel for Moroccan life. In addition,
staying in a Riad also allows one to taste
the most authentic food, which is exactly
what Luiza—the Riad owner—astounded
me with as I settled down to dinner in the
coolness of the courtyard. A huge, fragrant
assortment ofMoroccan style tapas was presented to me, after my hands were washed
in rose water. And, amongst the offerings
was a multicolored array of locally grown
olives—my favorite! I soon realized however, that this was only the first course.
Subsequently, plates and plates of exoticlooking sweet and spicy smelling foods
were brought out to me, along with a brief
explanation of what everything was. Needless to say, I went to bed that night very satisfied, which was a good thing as I had an
action packed day planned the next day.
Fez is basically three cities in one: Fez el
J'did, Fez el Bali— the old town in which
I stayed—and the new town, "Nouvelle
Ville." The sand-colored high fortress still
surrounds the Medina of Fez el Bali and is
one of the largest living medieval cities in
the world. I decided to go on a tour with
Idriss around the souqs (marketplaces) of
the Medina, as I had heard that navigating
through them yourself was next to impossible, and a few minutes later I was able to
see why. The souqs (pronounced 'sooks'),
which turned out to be right around the
corner from the Riad, were incredible;
a veritable maze of high-walled, narrow
alleys lined with various street vendors.
People were everywhere, going about their
daily lives. Pungent scents leapt into the
air as I walked by the assortment of stalls.
After a while, Idriss and I stumbled upon
a courtyard full of donkeys and bleating
sheep. Inevitably, it turned out to be the
place to buy sacrificial sheep along with the
hay to feed them. The courtyard naturally
contained a great deal of banter between the
vendors and buyers and the air was a buzz
with contagious energy. Indeed, it was at
this point that I felt so truly electrified that
I couldn't keep the smile off my face; I was
completely immersed in a world that was
so unbelievably different and this was only
day one of my travels in Fez.
The souqs of Fez were and still are today
a wonderful assault on the senses and is
one ^of the ^biggest draws to the area. Yet,
in my opinion, there is so much else to do
like a trip to the ancient city of Meknes
and the stunning Roman ruins of Volublis. In all, if you are in Morocco, do not be
daunted by the 10 hour train ride to get to
Fez from Marrakesh as it offers a very different experience than that of Marrakesh.
In fact, one thing I noticed was that everyone on the train was very friendly and very
talkative; within minutes the whole car was
chatting together. In fact, it was here on the
train that I had some very informative conversations about Morocco and the Muslim
faith. At one point I sat beside a man who
worked for the King's sister! It doesn't get
more culturally enriching than this, so get
out there, especially those of you who are
timid. Explore your senses of wonderment
and treat yourself to a taste of the unknown.
It will enrich you in ways you never thought
possible.

Sticky bubblegum pop with Sherwood
BY AMANDA ANDREEN
Pride Staff Writer
Sherwood, the indie quartet from
San Luis Obispo, Ca. credits their
name inspiration to the enchanting green forest in the tale of "Robin
Hood." And, although there are no
tights or feather-decorated hats to be
found on the guys of Sherwood, the
morale in "Robin Hood" of good triumphing over evil fares well with the
motto of Sherwood's latest release, "A
Different Light."
Previously signed to SideCho
Records for their last full-length, "Sing
But Keep Going" and "The Summer
EP," releases the switch from SideCho
to MySpace Records has unquestionably been a positive transformation for
the band ofcreative twenty-somethings.
Comprised of Joe Greenetz (drums),
Nate Henry (vocals, bass guitar), Dan
Koch (guitar, vocals), and Mike Leibovich (keys, percussion), Sherwood's
makeup is all about making a difference through the causes they support:
Music Saves Lives, More Important
Than Music, and Save Darfur.
Reflecting an optimistic outlook,
"A Different Light" is uplifting and
easy on the ears, not to mention fun to
sing along to. Reminiscent of earlier
Relient K, with a hint of Motion City
Soundtrack, Sherwood's sound and
style—although catchy and as poppy
as bazooka bubblegum—is comparable to that of Mae and Waking Ashland.
Of the 13 tracks on "A Different
Light," there are quite a few standout
tracks. The title track, "Middle of the
Night," "Song In My Head," "Give
Up," and "Never Ready to Leave"
are all smashing hits on "A Different
Light." Additionally, "For the Longest
Time" is a snappy ditty, with plenty
of "bop-bop-bahs" to croon along to.
"Never Ready to Leave" is drenched
in Motion City Soundtrack harmonies
and could almost be the baby sister to
Motion City Soundtrack's single "LG
Faud." "Alive" begins with a softer
Beach Boys vibe then progresses into
another boppy and entertaining cut.
Rightly so, there isn't one track on "A
Different Light" that leads the listener
astray. There is no way to go wrong
with Sherwood's latest release.
Furthermore, for the Sherwood fans
out there, Sherwood is scheduled to
make a pit stop in San Diego on their
current tour at the House of Blues
downtown along with Mae and Relient
K on April 11. Set to play in the middle
of the lively lineup, the April 11 show
should be a magical and memorable
gig for band members and fans alike.

BY SOPHIE BRINK
Pride Staff Writer
Featuring 40 images by over 30 photographers, "Woman: A Celebration," currently,
being showcased at the Museum of Photographic Arts in Balboa Park, San Diego, is a
small yet powerful exhibition.
Images of women from all walks of life,
from various parts of the globe, spanning
seven decades hang side by side, forming
a surprisingly cohesive collection. "These
images enrich our understanding of how
women looked, were treated, or asserted
themselves in various eras, from the late
19th to the early and mid-20th century," said
Carol McCusker, MoPA Curator of Photog- *
raphy. "Collectively, they act as a tribute to
the. ageless art of portraiture and to women
of energy, confidence, endurance, humor and
intelligence everywhere."
In Bert Hardy's "Goodbye" (1942), two
women on a train platform wave. One presses
a handkerchief to her mouth, her perfect suit
contrasting with the fear and sadness in her
eyes. It is May 23,1942 in Great Britain; three
days later, Rommel would begin an offensive
against British troops at Gazala. Though it is
a British train platform in the picture, British
women, the same scene was being played out
in the United States, as American women in
their smart suits were waving goodbye, praying for the safe return of their loved ones.
Today the scene remains the same - different
place, different time, same heartbreak.
The juxtapositions and subtle connections between images make for a powerful
viewing experience. A young Latina gazes
rebelliously within a wreath of roses in Luis
Gonzales Palma's "La Rosa" (1989), a handpainted photogravure. Nearby, "She is a Tree
of Life to Them" (1950) depicts a young
black mother holding her children close, in
her eyes a look of distrust mingled with defiance. On the same wall, a woman dries cloth
in 1970s Vietnam, a lone black figure against
a sea of white cloth. On another wall, Heinrich Kuhn's "The Breeze" (c. 1904) captures
two English women in Victorian dress standing upon a grassy knoll being harassed by a
roguish breeze; one woman's jacket is blown
open, exposing the high-collared pristine
white blouse beneath.
There is a large element of subjectivity
when viewing any exhibition, but it seems
that that element takes on a particularly powerful role in the exhibition. "I am bringing
my own experience to this collection, and
that you the viewer will have your own journey through it. The joy here is not just in the
quality of the art, but also in the wonderment
at the who, what, where, when, and how of
these women," Whoopi Goldberg stated, in
the forward to the exhibition's accompanying book. The viewer can't help but bring
his or her own experiences — memories of
loved women, cultural associations, cherished ideals of feminine beauty - into the
museum. Whether the images correspond to
one's beliefs and memories or whether they
contradict them, "Woman: A Celebration" is
an experience not to be quickly forgotten.
"Woman: A Celebration" will be on view
at the Museum of Photographic Arts through
May 6, and those wanting to take the experience home with them may purchase the book
for $22.95 at MoPA's bookstore.

Restaurant review:
Local deli tastes like home
BY SHAWN MCKECHNIE
Pride Staff Writer
Few students have ever heard of Tina's Deli,
and even those that have can rarely remember where it is. This legendary San Marcos
sandwich shop is located just on the other
side of the freeway at 760 North Twin Oaks
Valley Road. It is a small, family owned deli
that likes to consider its food as "more than;
a meal."

The atmosphere is simple 'with plenty of
bench seating ¡around the counters and epctra
seating in backforthose that do not like to eat
on the run. The sandwiches run the gambit
from the classic BLT to the always delicious
Torpedo, a sandwich that cannot be explained
only enjoyed. The clientele is exactly what you
would expect because of its close proximity
to both Palomar and CSUSM. Students make
up most of the business, but it is extremely
common to see administrators, teachers, police
andfirefighterscatching a quick bite to eat on
their lunch breaks.
The service at Tina's is rivaled by few restaurants, and the staff seems to know every
patron's name. How they do this is a mystery,
but it adds, to the small town feel that they
seem to strive for. Not only is the staff outgoing and personable, but there is a strong sense
of community while taking luiiph ai the deli. It
is hard to sit and eat without seeing-someone
that you know from class, a teacher that you
have previously had, or friends that you did not
know you would meet there. This adds to the
friendly community atmosphere that makes
Tina's more than a deli.
The price is reasonable and most sandwiches
are around five dollars, with students getting
an extra 10% off, which is a nice bonus.
There is no such thing as a "combo meal"
or "supersizing," but they do have plenty of
chips and drinks to choose from if you find
yourself wanting a little bit more.
Service and atmosphere are both good
things when considering where to eat, but
what really matters is the quality of the
food. Each sandwich^ made to order but
tastes more like something a mother would
make than a restaurant. These days it is
hard to find good home cooked meals, but
at Tina's a warm cup of soup and a hearty
sandwich is the standard/From the thick
slices of bacon to the insane amount of meat
theyfiton their sandwiches, Tina's Deli doe's
everything above and beyond what students
have come to expect from every other San
Marcos eatery.
