the result of deficits in human capital i.e.,

people of color have moved forward considerably in these areas. Therefore, this [inequality] is due to ongoing discrimination despite
laws banning it.
Question:
Some critics argue that the Civil Rights Act Initiative is
an attack on women's rights. Would you
agree ? How do you explain that a great
number of white women support CCRI?
It is clearly an attack
on the women's struggle for equality in our
society. It is also one of the curious features of
gender oppression that its victims are so unaware of their low status thereby so uncommitted to their own struggle. It has also been
a historic ploy to call upon the racism of white
women for the purpose of maintaining a white
male power system. Nevertheless, white
women have been the primary beneficiaries of
affirmative action and therefore stand to lose
the most by the passage of something mistakenly referred to as the "color blind initiative".
White women should realize that there is a
potentially strong ally among people of color
in the struggle for equality. For example, the
major male leader present at the First Women's
Rights convention in this country was
Frederick Douglas an ex-slave, Black man.
Therefore, I urge white women to come together with us to fight this initiative.
Question:
What exactly does
this initiative represents politically?
Answer:
This initiative is part of
a broader agenda that in California has included: de-funding education, huge build up
of the present system, passage of proposition
187, three strikes you're out . 'An agenda
which clearly says to people of color you don't
belong'. If people want to be so a historical as
to believe that we have ever had a meritocracy,
I urge them to consider why do we repeatedly
enact legislation banning race and gender
discrimination? We continue to live in a segregated society some would call it apartheid.
SHOULD THE CCRI PASS?
Some students on campus responded to the question.
Andrew Dasinger
Business Major
"I Think CCRI should pass.
People are being hired just
because they are Black, Hispanic orfitthe quota. The job
should go to the best qualified
applicant."
Michael Todd
Business Major
Eileen Whyte
Liberal Studies
I don't think this initiative if
passed would be beneficial to
anyone. I believein diversification. Minorities are not giving a chance."
"I don't believe the elimination of quotas is the answer.
Perhaps, there is a need to redefine its purpose".
Alejandra Amatulli
Liberal Studies
1 believe this initiative goes
beyond racism; its an attack
on women. It is a desperate
effort on the part of men to
undermine women. Men have
realized the power women can
potentially have, and feel
threatened by it".

Social Science Major
"I believe putting this initiative on
the ballot would only send us back
to the 1950's. We have made a lot of
progress thanks to affirmative action; without it not only minorities
would be affected but women as
well".
Michael Roberts
Accounting Major

I fully support the CCRI because affirmative action has
served its purpose. People
should be measured on their
individual merits".

College Students Needed
by Aimee LePore
I decided in my first year of
college t hat I was going to be find
out what I enjoyed doing and somehow turn it into a career. I knew
t hat I liked helping people and I
also liked working under challenging conditions, so one day I called
the Red Cross and scheduled an
interview to become a diaster volunteer. The first thing I was asked
to do was to sign up for a free
"Introduction to Diaster Services"
class so I could learn about all the
different djobs that people volunteer to work during diasters. The
Red Cross has over 22 volunteer
positions that people can specialize
in from surveying damage, feeding
people, setting up shelters, tto answering phones and working in a
supply warehouse—all part of the
overall relief effort during disasters.
When I arrived at Class, the
Disaster Director told us that our
instructor would be a little late because she was up all night helping
out on a fire and that she had not
had a chance to eat yet. As the
Director went on to explain how the
Red Cross responds to fires and
helps with the emergency needs of
the fire victims, I was instantly
fascinated. All through the class I
was so excited about finding my
nitch that during the break, I asked
the instructor if I could sign up to
be an intern in the disaster services department.
So began my volunteer career at
the Red Cross. In the coming
months I took free training classes
in almost everything the Red Cross
hasd to Offer. During my first
month in disaster services, the
Guejito brush fires struck the North
County and the Red Cross opened
its Emergency Operations Center.
I was asked if I was willing to go to
a Temporary Evacuation Point in
Romona to relieve some of the disaster volunteers who had worked
long hours feeding, sheltering and
caring for area residents who were
evacuated due to the fire. Off I
went to Ramona where I spent the
night.
I began Going to the disaster
department on adaily basis after
school. I became heavily involved
in working on a handbook for new
disaster volunteers coming into the
system and I soon 1 moved into a
set volunteer staff position in volunteer development. I assisted with
recruiting, maintaining, training,
and counseling volunteers through
their training. I also became an
instructor of disaster classes and
attended a Southern California
Disaster Institute in the Summer
of 1994.
In addition to helping with the
fires that occur on a daily basis in
San Diego County, I have been
there to help the Red Cross with
staffing and mass feeding whenever there has been a large disaster in our area. I am also qualified
to work on national d isasters
throughout the U. S. and nearly
went to Georgia this past summer
to help with the flood relief effort in
the Southeastern states.
Anyone interested in learning
more about the Red Cross disaster
services program can contact Leona
Bielefeld at the Red Cross at 2912620x606. For all other volunteer
opportunities contact the Human
Resources Department at x211.
A long w ith p roviding a
spanish-oly setting, t he program
offers an element of community
t hat transcends age, race and
language. This community atmosphere was a catalyst for a
comfortable l earning
enviroment. After arriving on Friday, t he
group enjoyed a potluck dinner followed by
workshops in Spanish
music and grammar.
Saturday, a fter breakfast and more workshops, t he group a te
l unch a nd p layed
games a t t he beach. Ater r eturning, t he group learned to dance
salsa style from a professional
dance instructor. The participants t hen had their choice
of many activities including, a ttending a spanish
catholic mass, wathching
movies in spanish, ofcourse,
and creating material for
t he impromptu t heatre presentations, creating a f un
time. Saturday closed with
a game of spanish charades.

In this, our inaugural column,
we'll forgo the commentary on current events. But to give you an idea
of how POTSHOTS will work, we've
created the following example:

government. The electorate clearly
embraced conservatism while rejecting the misguided values of liberals,

nothing more than counter-cultural
McGoverniksl - N.G. of Atlanta
Nice try N.G., but isn't there a
little irony in your attempt at making liberals look evil by evoking the
name of a man who lost the 1972 bid
for the presidency to an individual
who is remembered for his complicity in nearly throwing our nation
into a bigger constitutional crisis than
any scheming counter-culturalist
could have dreamed of?
Had the counter-culture yielded
in the 60s, we might still be stuck in
the quagmire of Southeast Asia convinced that a technowar victory was
imminent; had it not decided to make
waves in the 702s, we may have witnessed the suspension of the constitution to protect a corrupt president;
and its idleness in the 80s may have
granted defacto authorization for any
two-bit military officer tb set foreign
policy!
We may not be as fortunate in the
future. Whatever the outcome, all
we can hope is that counter-cultural

POTSHOTS is the printed
media's version of talk radio without
the radio; the phone; or the obnoxious, pompous, overweight program
host providing an endless
pontification of the virtues of the new
trend towards conservatism that was
manifested by November's election
results. We've replaced the radio
with this publication; the phone with
e-mail (or letters); and the host with
an equally obnoxious, pompous, but
rather scrawny columnist who is in
search of disagreement and not "dit-.

Beginning with our next issue,
the format will remain consistent.
The column will begin with a brief
(but opinionated) commentary on
current events involving ideas, policies, or remarks made by national,
state, or local politicians from either
side of the political spectrum. The
remainder of the column will consist
of choice tidbits from letters or e-mail
POTSHOTS addressed to this columnist along with a return volley at
the originator.

�Health In Cyber Space
by Dr. Joel Grinolds
Although I have not logged on, the nation's on-line computer services
are apparently now beingfloodedby user groups and bulletin boards
providing an abundance of health information. According to a recent
study by the Tufts University Diet and Nutrition Letter Staff, much of
the advice in the health bulletin boards is a "veritable minefield of
misstatements, half-truths and downright falsehoods."
Some say it is as it has been in the past "the consumer beware." At
this time there is no agency responsible for the scientific accuracy of the
content. A number of the bulletin boards were established by reputable
organizations such as the Muscular Dystrophy Association and provide
qualified professionals to supervise them. No one would doubt the value
of
some of these types of services, especially for people who may have
limited mobility or circumstances that limit their ability to access
information outside their home.
However, in an another study by Dr. John H. Renner, the Director of
the Consumer Health Information Research Institute which monitors
health fraud, multiple situations were found with scientifically unproven products and misinformation. This scenario was most often seen
with bulletin boards set up for people with HIV disease, cancer and
obesity. He states "it now takes a few seconds to spread misinformation
faster and farther than we ever knew."
There is no doubt some useful information and support occur with he online health bulletin boards but I would argue it should not substitute for
health advice offered by ones own trusted medical professionals including physicians, nurse practitioners, nutritionists etc.
At Student Health Services we feel a well informed patient/consumer
is essential in the environment of providing quality primary and
preventive health care. We have a vast array of health information
available. All you have to do is ask. We are located at Craven Hall 1300

to April 14. H ie exhibit, entitled Birthing
the Crone: Menopause and Aging through
an Artist's Eyes, is a series of self portraits which explore t he deeply personal
process of aging. As she addresses t he
negativity and f ear of our c ulture toward
menopause, aging, and d eath, she reclaims t he role of t he a rtist a s s haman,
healer, and educator. The "Crone" she is

woman, mother, and grandmother with
t he collective wisdom of women in word
and image. Through informed literary,
h ealth and feminist references, coupled
with energetic color and p enetrating image, Ms. Redman r eframes "The Change"
a s a n immensely creative and s piritual
time. A reception for t he a rtist will follow
a t 1 p.m.
Ms. Redman h as h ad over 30 oneperson shows a s well a s numerous j uried
and invitational shows throughout t he
United S tates and abroad. Her work h as

"Latin Film Festival"
by Claudia M. Acosta-Vasquez
The Association ofLatin American Students (A.L. A.S.) is holding its First annual
Festival which began on February 9th and runs thru April 30, 1995. The three
months' festival includes weekly evenihg screenings with introduction and post film
discussions on Latin films.
'The purpose ofthe festival is to educate the public about Latin American culture",
explains Joan Schoenleber, vice-president of A. L. A. S.
Faculty members from the College of Arts and Sciences lecture on the setting,
social or political aspect of the films. Professors from the Departments of Literature
, Foreign Language, Ethnic Studies, Performing Arts and Social Sciences collaborate in the festival producing an educational and cultural event that transcends the
classroom setting. Dean Victor Rocha welcomed the film festival during its first
screening, Belle Epoque (Spain), introduced Dr. Francisco Martin. Dr. Martin is
professor of Spanish Literature, and a native of Spain is the faculty advisor to A. L.
A. S.
The Association of Latin American Students founded last semester by three
female students form Nicaragua, Panama and Chile. They began sponsoring
cultural activities last October, when a Merecumbe dance form Costa Rica swung
tropical rhythms on Fonder* s Plaza. The Association is currently Planning a "Latin
Night" on campus which would include a show and a salsa music dance. Their goal
is to promote and preserve the Latin American culture through the Arts.

University Honors is Distinct

unique honors program. Students
agree to do work above and beyond t he regular coursework in
an honors project in five classes,
enroll in t he honors seminars
course (Honors 400), maintain a
GPA of 3.2 in coursework a t
CSUSM and fulfill t he community service requirement. As t he
policies and procedures for t he
Honors Program s tates, "Students who accumulate 12 or more
Honors credits, who complete t he
University Honors Seminar, and
who document meaningful community service may then qualify
for University Honors a t graduation. Completion of t he University Honors P rogram will be
explicityly noted on t he Student's
diploma and transcript." This
Recognition is distinct from t he
common commencement honors
recognition based soley on GPA
(summa cum laude, magna cum
laude, and cum laude; with highest honors, with high honors and
with honors, respectively). For
example, a student may graduate with summa cum laude and
with University Honors, if he/
she completed t he Honors Program a s well as earned a high
GPA.

S tudents s upport U .S. a ctivity i n G ulf
Students at Cal State San Marcos feel that
the United States should continue its activity
in the Persian Gulf and that the primary reason
for American involvement in the region is to
stop Iraqi President Saddam Hussein from
gaining too much power.
These reactions were gaged in an unscientific anonymous poll by Pioneer of 39 students at CSUSM. The sample reflects about
6.5 percent of the population attending the
university.
Thirty-one of those sampled were women,
with the remaining eight responses coming
from men, accurately reflecting the gender
demographics of the campus. Of those
sampled, 16 were between the ages of 18-25;
10 were between the ages 26-32; seven were
between the ages 33-40, and the remaining six
were above 40 years-old.
Of those surveyed, only two felt that the
U.S. should no longer continue its activity in
the Persian Gulf. Two people held no opinion,
while the remainder of the students said the
U.S. should continue with its involvement. Of
the students who indicated that involvement
should continue, one said that forces should be
reduced.
Most of those polled felt that there were
multiple reasons for America's involvement
in the Persian Gulf.
Thirty-three responses indicated that the
U.S. became involved to stop Hussein from
gaining too much power. Twenty-five felt that
the U.S. was in the region to liberate Kuwait,
while only 23 felt that oil was the reason for
military presence.
One student said that the conflict in the
Middle East is an ego trip by world leaders.
The student said that this is an opportunity for
those leaders to test their military weapons.
Nineteen of those interviewed felt that the

year. Six people felt the war would not last
six months, while the remaining 13 students
thought the war would last over one year with
six of those indicating the conflict would last
longer than two years.
One student said the duration of the conflict will depend upon the extent of CIA involvement.
Those that commented further on events
in the Middle East, expressed concerns about
protestations over the war e ffort One student
asked, "Where were the peaceniks when he

Another student declared, "Protestors

B udweiser d istributer
g ives l argest l ocal g ift
With a donation to help in the formation of a scholarship program at
Cal State San Marcos, Ken Markstein, president of Markstein Beverage Co. in San Marcos, has committed $100,000 to the university, making him the largest local contributor
to the university.
CSUSM President Bill Stacy announced the contribution January 23,
five days before the commencement
of the spring semester.
"It's a splendid thing that Mr.
Markstein has done," Stacy said. "To
receive such a strong voice of confidence from our neighbor in the community is a great thing. Particularly in
these difficultfiscaltimes,Mr. Markstein's generosity grants to us the
flexibility that provides excellence to
our students in North County."
The g ift from Markstein will be
awarded in increments over the next
10 years, with thefirst$10,000 check
endowing a scholarship program for
business students.
The second year?s check will endow related faculty enhancement for
the MBA program to be developed at
the university. Each year's donation
thereafter will alternate between funding student scholarships and faculty
enhancement.
Director of Financial Aid, Paul
Phillips, said that details regarding
the scholarships will be announced
later in the year. He said the contribution is an "absolutely wonderful"
addition to the Financial Aid program.
Bernard Hinton, founding faculty
professor of Business Management,
said in a written statement that the
endowment could strengthen ties to
the business community.
"TheCollegeof Business Administration is deeply committed to a close
working relationship with the North
County business community; we are
equally aware of our responsibility to
justify their faith in us," Hinton wrote.
"With the support of such community citizens as Ken, we expect to be
able to provide the quality education
the North County area desires and
deserves."
Markstein Beverage Co. is the
North C ounty d istributor f or
Budweiser Beer and other Anheiser
BusQh products.
The gift, which will be called The
Markstein Beverage Co. Scholarship
Program, is the largest contribution to
CSUSM to be made locally. It marks
the third largest endowment to date.
Earlier in the yfear, Bill Daniels, of
Daniels Cablevision in Denver, endowed $250,000 for the formation of
a chair in Communications. Most
recently, Itoman, a Japanese trading
finn, announced a $500,000donation
last September for the establishment
of an annual international festival.
Another $250,000 endowment, by
Allan O, Kelly of Carlsbad, was rejected by the college last fall following criticism from the academic
community. The Kelly endowment
would have helped form a chair in
Geology.
Markstein could not be reached for
comment as of press time, but Stacy
indicated that the donation was made
as a gesture of community support.
"He wanted to d o something as a
hometown guy to support our programs" he said.

Hepatitis threat greater than earlier thought
You are probably feeling saturated with information concerning sexually transmitted diseases; however, some recent studies and initiative by the Centers for Disease Control reveal
the Hepatitis B Virus (HB V) infection is more a
more serious threat to the college-age population than was previously thought
HB V is among a group of viruses including,
human papilloma virus (HPV—commonly referred to as genital warts), human immune deficiency virus (HIV), and herpes simplex virus
(HSV)—labeled the "modern sexually transmitted diseases" by many. These viruses carry
the potential to cause serious illness, including
various cancers and death.
Specifically, HBV infection, for which if
there is no treatment, can lead to impaired liver
function, chronic liver disease, cirrhosis and
liver cancer. The severity of the disease ranges
from unapparent cases (with no recognizable
signs and symptoms) to a fulminating fatal
illness (rarely).
Usually, Hepatitis B patients have some mild

symptoms and occasionally jaundice (a yellowing of the skin and whites of the eyes), but
frequently are diagnosed as having a mild viral
infection or the so-called gastrointestinal flu.
Approximately 10 percent of patients will becomecarriers. Also, a certain numberof carriers
will develop chronic, active hepatitis which
leads to serious problems.
That brings us to the mode of transmission.
HBV causes 300,000 infections annually

Yearbookcommitteemembersand
Cal State San Marcos administrators
are puzzled over the origin of survey
forms recently distributed around the
campus.
According to BarbaraPender, who
leads the student subcommittee on
the organization of a yearbook, the
survey questionnaire entitled, "Student Survey for First Class Yearbook,"
did not come from the yearbook staff.
In fact, says Pender, the survey contains questions that are too personal
for use in the forthcoming publication.
"We don't want to know who a
person's spouse is or what the spouse's
occupation is," said Pender. "We're
not going to make the yearbook a
personal biography."
At first Pender thought the survey
was placed by someone on the year*
book committee, but all members
denied drafting the questionnaire. She
then looked to the administration for
the source of the survey, but found no
answers there either.
"We thought, It's got to be someone within the system. The box where
the surveys were dropped had a logo
from the Staff Directory," said Pender.
Linda Leiter, secretary of Student
Services, said she has no idea from
where the survey came. Barbara Davis,
receptionist in the President's Office,
and Sandra Punch, coordinator of
Student Services at SDSU North
County and CSUSM, also were perplexed over the survey's origin.
"Itjustappeared,"saidPunch.Most
of the flyers that are distributed around
campus pass through Punch's office.
After finding no link between the
administration and the survey, Pender pulled all copies from the Student
Lounge and gave them to the Office
of Student Services.
Yearbook subcommittee member
Mary Parker said she saw a welldressed man in his forties place surveys in the Student Lounge last semester, but thought the survey was a
college-sanctioned document.
Pender and officials are also perplexed over a reference to the "Student Affairs Office" at the bottom of
the questionnaire. The official title
belonging to the department which
handles student activity is "Student
Services" and not "Student Affairs."
The survey is printed on a blue
stock paper similar to that found in the
university's copy rooms, but it was
written on a typewriter and not a
computer. The college uses computers for most of its document drafts.
Pender said shedoesn't believe the
survey was distributed out of malice,
but feels it could harm the reputation
of the yearbook committee.
"Because of this, the yearbook is
not going to be putting out surveys,"
cited Pender. "Why would anybody
go through such trouble—such cost—
to sabotage the yearbook?"
mission of the virus is by sexual exposure, blood
transfusions, needle exposure, and perinatal
exposure (in the pregnancy and birth process).
Among the college age population, Hepatitis
B virus is transmitted mainly through heterosexual activity with either a carrier or someone
who has the active disease.
What is new is that heterosexual activity as a
cause of HBV has increased 38 percent in the
last five years, accounting for 25 percent of the
cases of HBV, and replacing homosexual activity on importance as ariskfactor.
Heterosexual activity considered as highrisk for HBV infection includes duration of
sexual activity (years sexually active), number
of sexual partners, and history of other STDs.
As any/each of these risk factors increase, so
does theriskof acquisition of Hepatitis B virus
infection.
As a prevention strategy, "safer sex" helps
by the use of condoms and by decreasing the
number of sexual partners in order to reduce
exposure to infectious semen and vaginal secre-
tions. However, the HBV can be present in other
body fluids such as saliva so that intimate contact may be risky.
Vaccination of persons at highriskis the best
way to significantly decrease the incidence of
HBV in the college-age population.
Student Health Services through SDSU is
conducting an educational intervention that looks
at ways in which students receive information
about Hepatitis B and their need to receive the
HBV vaccine (at a reduced cost). If you think
you or a friend are atrisk,contact Health Services at Cal State San Marcos, SDSU North
County campus, 471-3578, to have your questions answered about your risk and how to
receive the HBV vaccine.

effects of caffeine consumption. Please submit

Women should
shed meekness
to end fighting
How students will view Cal State San Marcos' journalism program.
Times Advocate proposal
requires student approval
In early 1990, Cal State San Marcos invited entrepreneurs to
participate in the creation of this nation's first public university
in nearly a quarter century. The founders, and subsequent staff,
of Pioneer newspaper proudly accepted this offer. It's our
pleasure to have initiated the process of student publication.
The press is organic to a democratic society, and our staff
weighs its role accordingly. Likewise, it is gratifying to hear
from numerous students and staff commending our work.
In the interim, the Escondido based Times Advocate offered
a package deal to the budding campus. Their proposition, if
implemented, wouldrequire every Cal State San Marcos student
to subscribe to the Times Advocate newspaper as a condition to
attending school. In turn, the Times Advocate would enable the
founding of a College of Journalism through a combination of
capital and services support. The official school newspaper (not
the Pioneer) would be a mere insert in the Escondido daily.
This offer has met with widespread disappointment. Firstly,
the Times Advocate is proposing an exclusive service contract—spending student paid fees—so don't mistake this for
philanthropy. It is neither a corporate gift nor an endowment.
Secondly, Cal State San Marcos would be obligating its students to buy a private tabloid through the imposition of student
fees. This steals our freedom to make choices as consumers of
news. Furthermore, it puts the University in the position of
endorsing a private firm's services on an exclusive basis.
initially, it seems exciting to be the recipient of an entire
newsroom, even at the expenses stated. Unfortunately, the
greatest cost is unstated: the inevitable mediocrity that would
result from a journalism department shackled to a local daily.
The best journalism students will not attend a program that
directs its efforts to producing an insert anymore than the highly
talented would write for the Pennysaver. Likewise, the best
professors of the trade would be reluctant to teach for a department that depends on a private enterprise for its continued
existence.
Certainly it would be the first time that Cal Sate San Marcos
steers itself to less than excellence in any endeavor.
The most perplexing—and reprehensible— situation, however, is not the Time Advocate's behavior. Private firms should,
rationally, do everything possible to increase their value, and it
is not my purpose to condemn them f or trying.
On the contrary,

cate's offer in
light of their previous handling of a much less offensive offer
of a Geology chair.
In that instance, the donor requested that his theories be
tested, presumably by the scholar he sought to subsidize.
Ultimately, President S tacy scrubbed the idea in the interest of
academic integrity.
An inconsistency is apparent in the responses of an academic community that until now religiously promoted the
tenants of political correctness. When an individual tries to
"buy" a testing ground for his scientific theories, it is taboo to
the purists. However, when a firm attempts to create and
dictate the operations of a whole school of journalism, the
overall reaction is indifference.
Obviously we share our path with hypocrites.
Perhaps most outrageous is the fact that the voice of student
government—the Student Governance Task Force, and its
subcommittees—is being ignored. In November of 1990, the
Newspaper Subcommittee,charged by Student Services Dean
Ernest Zomalt to formulate recommendations for an official
school paper, rejected the Times Advocate proposal.
Surprisingly, this conclusion was not the basis for further
action by the Administration.
I urge the University Council to relinquish student newspaper decisions to the student government I further beg of the
University administration to act consistently by sticking to
precedent and rejecting any and all offers that are less than a
gift.
If Cal State San Marcosexpects to recruit entrepreneurs, it
must be sure that the reward of recognition is the prize of the
truly giving.

Sick? Outrageous? Disgusting? Definitely. But look at the
failure of lesser measures.
Almost 2500 years ago, Lysistrata, the heroine of Aristophanes' play of the same name, attempted to stop war by uniting
all the women of Athens. These wives of Greek soldiers withheld
sex from their husbands until the latter agreed to never fight again.
Looking at the evening news, it obviously didn't work.
Lysistrata, and all women throughout the millenia, have failed
to recognize one important f act We men prefer making war to
making love.
Perhaps it's testosterone poisoning. This hormone gives men
greater physical strength and also appears to trigger aggressive
behavior.
Perhaps i t's environmental. Men have been raised with the
belief that anger is the only socially acceptable emotion. Probably
it's a combination of both.
But whatever the cause of the problem, the destruction of the
world can only be reversed by women uniting and reclaiming their
power. And I'm not referring to the women's movement.
The Gloria Allreds and Steinems of the world, well-intentioned
as they are, have contented themselves with seeking financial and
political equality with males. This is as absurd as a cheetah seeking
genetic equality with a snail because it envies the glittering slime
traiHt makes on a sidewalk.
Face it, ladies. We men are on the verge of destroying the only
planet you've got. There are no suburbs to flee to this time.
Only a revolution by all the women of the world has any chance
to save the human species. Too long have you been the mourners
and nurses for the dead and dying. Too long have you deferred
your power to male-dominated misinterpretations of the Bible,
Koran and Torah.
They say the hand that rocks the cradle rules the world. Modern
Iraq, between the Tigris and Euphrates rivers,is ancient Mesopotamia, "the cradle of civilization."
We men are now rocking that cradle with bombs, oil spills and
ego-terrorism of the worst kind.
If you women don't shed your meekness along with your veils
and feminine deodorant spray, and reclaim your God-given power
as giversoflife, your only legacy will be the stench of a dead ocean
and dying earth spreading from here to eternity.

MARTIN LUTHER KING, JR.

The other day I met asoldier in line at the grocery store. Dressed in combat fatigues, he looked
tired and uneasy.
He told me he had just arrived back home,
from the Persian Gulf. When I asked him what
it was like to be in the Middle East during the
conflict, he said nothing. The look of weariness
on his face told all I needed to know.
"Isn't it great to be back home," I asked.
"Could be better," he said. He motioned to
the television set in the store's lobby, playing
the latest war coverage. Vietnam veteran Ron
Kovic sat in a wheelchair leading thousands of
demonstrators through San Francisco.

the homefront. Therightto protest in the United
States is a fundamental and necessary component to the system of democracy in which we
live. But we, as Americans, must realize that
protestation can be more damaging to our soldiers than enemy fire.
Ron Kovic, of all people, should realize this
fact. When he left Vietnam with crippling injuries, he came home to rains of spit rather than
confetti. In one of the San Francisco demonstrations, which he led two weeks ago, 1,000 protestors were arrested. In fact, more people were
arrested during that demonstration than any

during the Vietnam War.
Where were the protestors when Hussein
forcefully took over Kuwait? In this action can
truly be found a reason for protest:
It is one thing to hold prayer vigils and tie a
yellow ribbon for the troops oversees, it is
another thing to clog the streets of a major city
with unruly and completely counterproductive
demonstrations.
Nobody but a madman would revel in the
muck of war. Unfortunately the world contains
one such lunatic by the name of Saddam Hussein.
His unprovoked attacks against Israel—a
nation which originally chose to stay removed
from the conflict—are nothing less than sadistic. Protestors tread heavily on the memory of
those Israelis lost in senseless SCUD attacks.
His dumping of millions of gallons of oil into
the Persian Gulf is nothing less than environmental terrorism. Protestors do nothing but
muddy the environment of global awareness by
giving credence to a man who has little concern
for the world around him.
His occupation of Kuwait is nothing less
than dictatorial. Protestors disregard therightof
an oppressed nation to share the same freedoms
of speech and protest that they are exercising.
War did not push Hussein into performing
these actions. He instigated them because he is
sociopathic. Our soldiers are there to lessen a
madman's control over an important corner of
the world.
Nobody dislikes war more than those who
are employed by the government to fight i t
When they come home from work they deserve
to be treated to warmth and kindness and not to
the unmeaningly cold messages of protestors.
Those who fight Hussein in the Gulf may not
be fighting a just war (since there is no such
thing as a just war), but they are fighting a
necessary war. Now more than ever they need
our unflappable support. Hussein wishes for a
disjointed America and tides of protestation
bring waves of division.
It must be remembered that the conflict in the
Gulf is not a mirror image of Vietnam. This
conflict is more akin to a war fifty years ago
where another madman sought control of the
world. Our soldiers then were treated with the
respect they deserved and earned. Our soldiers
now should receive the same treatment.
If you want to rally against the soldiers
overseas, then put your protest signs and your
love beads in the back of your psychedelic VW
van and groove on back to the 60s where your
exploits will be appreciated.

Students stress to President importance of their opinions
Dear President Stacy:
One of the things remembered from our orientation last summer is your explanation of how
this university was going to be different. With
you as its leader, CSUSM was going to develop
into an institution where the students' interests
came first; for, as you stated, without the students there would be no need for faculty and
administration.
The first day of classes began with instructors who were extremely enthusiastic about the
different outlook that this administration had
compared with what they had encountered at
other colleges. Each professor emphasized the
open policy where the student was of primary
importance.
As the semesterprogressed it was easy to see
that indeed this was a different school. Classes
became like families, with classmates quickly
becoming as close as cousins. Each of the courses
offered lively discussions where concepts were
not only taught by the professors but discovered
by the students as well.
Sitting in the Student Lounge and listening to
students from all fields of study, one never
heard words of complaint about the quality of
instruction. There were many complaints about
too much homework, as would be expected, but
there was no talk about not taking an instructor
because he/she couldn't teach.
CSUSM was developing into just the university you had predicted. It was a university where
education and the student really mattered.
As the semester drew to a close, we noted
that some of our professors were not promoting
their next semester's classes. When we asked
what they would be teaching, we found that,
since they were only part time, they didn't know
if they would be back or not.
Worried that the "powers that be" in the
administration may not know how we students
felt about our "temporary" professors, we made
an appointment with the appropriate administrator to express our concern. We told that
administrator that those part-time instructors
were among the best that higher education had
to offer.
The administrator suggested that we send in

letters of evaluation. We were assured that these
letters would be copied and seht to the offices of
the people who made the choices of whether or
not to retain the instructors. So we sent the
letters.
The next week evaluation sheets were sent to
classes. There is little question that our instructors received glowing assessments.
Can you imagine how shocked and let down
we were to find that few of those tremendous
instructors were returning?
We recognize that it is the university's option to retain or dismiss part-time faculty, but
we also feel that the opinions of the student
population should be at least considered and not
simply brushed aside. We feel impotent in our
ability to help this college plant a solid foundation on which the education of generations to
come will be built.
We have great confidence that the new instructors chosen are of the utmost competence;
however, we are reluctant to adopt them as our
mentors if they are only to pass with the changing semesters.
Dr. Stacy, we realize that you are not directly
responsible for what has occurred, yet we send
a plea to you, as this university's highest authority , to once again stress to your administrators
the importance of student opinion and the tragedy which occurs when it is ignored. We only
ask that the students' point of view be considered as much as it is at other institutions of
higher education.

One of the most shocking casualties of war came when Iraqi president
Saddam Hussein dumped millions of
gallons of Kuwaiti crude into the
Persian Gulf. The spill was eleven
times larger than the 1989 spill created when the Exxon tanker, Valdez,
hit a reef off the coast of Alaska.
President Bush called the action
by Hussein a "sick action from a

the flow of oil into the gulf by using
allied forces.
"I admit he does irrational

Missiles have paid a large part in the early war events. More than 50
types of tactical missiles and precision-guided munitions have been deployed on aircraft, ships and ground units in the Persian Gulf War, providing troops with the mainstay of their firepower so far.
The missiles depend on mechanical and electronic guidance systems
including radar, infrared sensors, inertial measuring units, television
cameras, terrain following devices,

C HEMICAL W EAPONS
Chemical weapons are considered the poor man's atom bomb. These
deadly weapon systems can be constructed by many of the world's nations today. Theycan beplacedon 1960s-vintage missile, widely available on the arms market, in a chemical warhead made from readily
available chemicals.
There are severalchemicals used in warheads. Some of those chemicals and their reactions are listed below:
• Cyanide and other blood agents: When inhaled, it blocks the
blood's oxygen-carrying capacity. It can cause eye irritation, choking
and sometimes death.
• Chlorine and phosgene: These chemicals burn the lining of the
lungs. When plasma leaks into the lungs from the bloodstream, victim's
drown in their own fluids.
• M ustard Gas and other Blistering Agents: Can cause vomiting,
nausea, skin irritation and blistering, eye-irritation and short-term blindness. It can be lethal in large amounts.
• Nerve Gas: Nerve gas can be inhaled or absorbed through the skin.
It attacks the nervous system and is highly toxic; this gas can kill in 15
minutes.
Total isolation from the chemical agent is the only protection. U.S.
soldiers use a two piece suit with special boot covers and gloves. A
chemical mask and hood are used to protect the head.
Different kinds of masks are used in different nations, the U.S.
military offers three different types:
• M17 A1 is used by the infantry, it has small eyelets. The filter,
inside the cheek pouch of the mask, is good for about 24 hours before
filling with dust.
• M43 is used in helicopters. It allows Apache pilots, in particular,
to wear their special sighting system gear and the mask at the same time.
The M43 also is attached to the ventilator which blows in fresh air.
• M25 A1 is used by tanks and armored vehicles. It is similar to the
M17 and is also connected to a breathing unit. It has a wider face cover
than the M17 so that the vehicle operators have far better visibility.
Ideally, masks are fitted to the individual wearer to avoid readjustment in the 13 seconds required for putting them on. Masks are put on
like catchers' masks, then attached by four straps. A wearer needs to
blow into the canister to clear it, then breathe normally.

"Look at those guys! Haven't I
seen them around campus somewhere?" No, your eyes are not misleading you, The Jazz group playing
at noon in the Student Lounge today,
is in fact made up of University students and employees.
Bob Boss, John "Ironman" Harris
and Gunnar B iggs make up the North
County university community's own
jazz trio. The members of the group
have known each other for years
throughout the jazz circuit, but had
never played together as a group until
they ran into each other on campus.
The Uni versity Jazz Trio, so named
in aSan Diego State University, North
County newsletter, first came about
when Biggs walked into the Aztec
Shops last September and saw Boss
and Harris working. "We have a trio
right here," he exclaimed.
Biggs approached the "powers that
be" and and found them to be enthusiastic about the idea. Pat Hinkle came
up with the sponsorship for the group
and the University Jazz Trio was born.
In fall they played the Student
Lounge at the beginning of the semester and in the parking lot at end of the
first semester's festivities.
"Music is a combination of melody, harmony , and rhythm," disclosed
Boss. "Jazz, first takes the melody
which is whistleable, then adds harmony which colors it and gives it
shape and last the rhythm which holds
it all together." He went on to explain
that jazz is made up of theme and

2* 'The Russia House'
Sean Connery, Michelle Pfeifer,
an intelligent script and scenic Russia
all combine forces to create the most
compelling spy thriller in recent history. This one makes you think as
well as entertains.
3 . 'Awakenings'
The most unlikely combination of
hyper-intense comic Robin Williams
and very serious dramatic actor Robert
DeNiro creates an emotional look at
life—something we all take for
granted. Williams should walk away
with an Oscar this time for a convincing portrayal of a doctor so absorbed
in his work that he almost missed out
on what life's all about.
4.'Mountains of the Moon'
This sweeping saga tells the true
story of two explorers looking for the
source of the Nile in deepest Africa.
The film is notable for the brilliant
performances of Patrick Bergin (soon
to be seen with JuliaRoberts in 'Sleeping with the Enemy') andFiona Shaw.
5. 'Hamlet'
Yes, i t's true. Mel Gibson can do
Shakespeare. He's a riveting force as
the self-destructive Hamlet. Glen
Close, brilliant as usual, plays the role
of his mother, Gertrude.
6 . 'Goodfellas'
Mel Gibson as Hamlet.
Ray Liotta puts in a strong performance in a movie that cuts so close
to the heart of the Italian mafia that
they took offense. JocPesci and Robert
DeNiro also run away with their respective roles.
7. 'Ghost'
This ultimate love story stars Patrick Swayze and Demi Moore with
Whoopi Goldberg thrown in for comic
relief. This film touched the heart of
America in such a big way, it deserves
mention.
8. 'Reversal of Fortune'
Jeremy Irons is positively devious
as the enigmatic Klaus von Bulow,
who was acquitted of causing his
wife's coma through an injection of
insulin. Kudos to Run Silver as his
defense attorney Who is not sure what
to make of his weird client.
9. 'Presumed Innocent'
Scott Turrow's novel is intelligently adapted to the screen for a look
at a man's portrayal and the inner
workings of politics in a district attorney's office. Harrison Ford is solid,
but Bonnie Bedelia runs away with
the movie as Ford's bitter wife.
10. 'Postcardsfrom the Edge'
Carrie Fisher proves that she's not
justanother Princess Leia. Her simple,
but eloquent screenplay reveals Hollywood life through actress Suzanne
Vale (Meryl Streep) and her famous
singing mother (Shirley MacLaine).
