EIC to close Draft legislation alive in senate
without
passage of
referendum
Childcare services
to end without new
f unds
BY TIFFANY LIU
Pride Staff Writer
Childcare services on campus will end
a fter this semester unless students approve
additional funding.
Since 1998, Associated Students, Inc.
(ASI) has owned and operated the Early
Learning Center (ELC) which provides low
cost childcare services for students, faculty,
and staff. Due to ASI experiencing significant budget cuts these f unds will no longer
be available.
If no new f unding source i s acquired,
childcare services at CSUSM will have to
b e discontinued until December 2007 when
the Center for Children and Families is
expected to open.
"These students would have to drop out
of school if i t wasn't for this place," said
Mosetta Rodrigues-Coppedge in reference
to students who have children in the ELC.
Currently, 48 students have children
enrolled at the Early Learning Center; 35
students utilize the center f ull time and 13
use it part time.
The ELC's curriculum provides an
instruction that enables children to build
self-esteem, learn acceptable methods of
cooperation and become competent individuals within a group setting.
There are 6 schedules to choose from for
the f ull time program which consists of 8-9
hour days and 3 schedules to choose from
for the part time program which consists of
4 hour days.
Registration for children costs $23 for
students, and $30 for faculty and staff per
semester. In addition tuition costs at the
ELC are $23 full-time and $16 part-time
per day for students and $30 full-time and
$20.00 part-time per day for faculty and
staff.
In addition to providing childcare, the
ELC provides the campus with internships,
employment opportunities, as well as a
source for course projects and child observation.
In an attempt raise the f unds needed to
support the ELC a Childcare Fee Referendum has been called. Voting for the referendum will be conducted at http://lynx.
csusm.edu/vote/from October 18-21.
According to ELC projections 92 percent
of f unds next spring will come f rom child
registration and tuition fees, five percent
of f unds will come f rom fundraising and
grants, and three percent will c ome from
the childcare fee if it is approved. If the fee
is not approved the ELC will close.
If the Childcare Services Fee passes,

Despite assurances from lawmakers as well as both presidential candidates, the
bill to reinstate the draft is before the Senate Committee on Armed Services
BY CHEZ ARE MILO
Pride Staff Writer
Despite the recent defeat of d raft legislation in the U.S. House of Representatives, d raft legislation remains under
consideration in the Senate.
The latest version of United States
Senate Bill 89, titled the Universal
National Service Act of 2003, calls for
a mandatory selective service requirement of two years for men and women
between the ages of 18-26.
The bill in its most recent form offers
no deferment for college students and
makes it mandatory for wome
n to
sign up for the draft. S. 89 is currently
under review in the Senate Committee
on Armed Services.
According to one provision in the bill,
"based upon the needs of the uniformed
services, the President shall determine
the number of persons" who shall b e
called to serve. People "who are not
selected for (the) military ... shall perform their national service obligation
under this Act in a civilian capacity"
S. 89 also gives the President power

What's behind the Alcohol
BY ELIZABETH BALDWIN
Pride Staff Writer
The New York Times is available to students at no charge for a four week trial
period beginning Oct 11.
There will be 500 New York Times
newspapers distributed around campus
Monday through Friday.
At the end of trial period, Associated
Students Inc. will decide whether or not
to continue the service, which will cost
$2,000 per month, or choose to have pay
racks, like the North County Times, and
have the students pay for each paper.
"I think this is an amazing opportunity.
We use the New York Times in so many of
our classes. Second, if students are passing

Voter Registration deadline is
approaching
BY LINDSAY RIEDEL
Pride Staff Writer
Time is running out for qualified people who have not yet registered to vote. Voter registration
forms must be postmarked by
October 18 in order to be eligible
to vote in the November 2 general
election.
In order to be eligible to register to vote in the State of California, you must be a U.S. Citizen,
a California resident, at least 18
years of age on or before the election, not be in prison or on parole
for a felony conviction, and not
be declared mentally incompetent by a court action.
There are three ways to register
to vote in thé state of California.
One way is to download a registration form from the I nter-
net, fill it out, and mail it in.
Downloadable registration forms
can be found on several websites including http://www.ss.ca.
gov/elections/voteregl.html and
www.rockthevote.org.
Another way to register to vote
is by obtaining, filling out and
mailing in a registration postcard.
Registration postcards are available at the DMV, the post office,
at public libraries as well as the
Kellogg Library on campus.
The third way to register is
to have a registration postcard
mailed to you, fill it out, and mail
it back.
Those wishing to have registration postcard mailed to their residence should contact the Registrar of Voters main office at (858)
565-5800 and request a registration postcard.

Voter registration forms are
available in English and in Spanish.
If you are already registered to
vote in California, it is only necessary to re-register to vote if you
move, change your name, or wish
to change your party affiliation.
Some people don't register to
vote under the pretense that they
will not be called for j ury duty,
but this is not true. The list of
registered voters is shared with
the court system; however indi-
viduals are already in the pool of
people to be called for j ury duty
if they have a driver's license or
state-issued identification card.
On Election Day a picture ID is
required for first time voters who
registered by mail. If you plan to
vote through an absentee ballot,
the option is provided on voter
registration forms. The deadline
to apply for an absentee ballot is
October 2 6,2004.

As today's appearance of
Michael Moore at the Del Mar
Fairgrounds draws closer, the
buzz around campus and the
community grows louder. Tickets
are sold out, protestors are rallying, and controversy is stirring.
By the time tickets became
available to the public on the
morning of October 7, there
were 2,500 tickets to sell out of
the total 10,000 tickets originally
available. Tickets sold out on
October 8.
Penelope Young Andrade, a
Rancho Penasquitos resident,
feels that the decision to postpone
ticket sales to the public was not
executed as well as it could have
been.

accidentally, I happened to go

community turnout, it would
have been better if it weren't

Many of the community members who came to buy tickets
were not upset by the postponement of ticket sales.
"It's originally supposed to be
for students, so it's understandable," said Heidi Pierce, a resident of Imperial Beach.
ASI publicized the postponement of ticket sales by sending
emails to CSUSM staff, posting
it on their website, and providing
a hotline for up-to-date information.
The CSUSM College Republicans, other local college republicans, as well as many students

to "select the individuals among
those persons who are to be
inducted for military service
under this Act," and, "prescribe
such regulations as are necessary
to carry out this Act."
In order for S. 89 to become
law, it would have to pass in the
Senate as well as the House of
Representatives.
The nearly identical house
version of the bill, HR 163, was
unexpectedly brought to a vote
on October 5.
Republican
Congressman
John M. McHugh of New York
motioned to bring the bill to a
vote early by placing the legislation on the Suspension Calendar.
"Now some may say today that
this legislation is really about
the need to establish a system of
national service— And I would
say—that is a legitimate topic of
discussion. But the clear objective of this bill—and the undeniable intent of recent claims of
secret plans and post election
plots is focused on a return of the
draft—forced military conscription," said McHugh before the
house.
"The administration clearly, the
Department o f Defense clearly,
and I suspect that at the end of
this vote it will be shown the
House of Representatives clearly
rejects the fact, either before an
election, at election or a fter election, that there is a need, there is
a rationale, for returning to mandatory conscription by the United
States military." said McHugh
prior to Tuesday's vote.
The vote was 402 - 2 against
the bill.
Democratic
Congressman
Charles Rangel of New York, the
original sponsor of HR 163, was
unhappy with the rush to vote.
"The Republican leadership
decision to place the d raft legislation on the Suspension Calen-

dar (bring the bill to a vote early)
is a political maneuver to kill
rumors of the President's intention to reinstate the d raft after the
November election." said Rangel
in a public statement released
after the vote.
Cosponsor of the bill, Democratic Congressman Pete Stark of
California, stated the intent of the
legislation upon its introduction
to the House of Representatives.
"I ardently oppose war with
Iraq....For those who conscientiously object to war; the bill
assures that any military service
would not include combat. Oth-
erwise, there would be no preferences, no deferments, no chance
for the well-off or the well-connected to dodge military service
for their country, as did our President.
"
"Reinstituting the d raft may
seem unnecessary to some. But,
it will ensure all Americans share
in the cost and sacrifice of war.
Without a universal d raft, this
burden weighs disproportionately on the shoulders of the poor,
the disadvantaged and minority
populations. It is my understanding that out of the 435 Members
of this House and the 100 members of the Senate, only o neonly one—has a child in active
military service. Who are we to
know the pain of war when we
ourselves will not directly bear
the brunt of that action? It won't
be us mourning the loss of a child
or loved one. Maybe some of you
in this Congress would think
twice about voting for war in
Iraq if you knew your child may
be sent to fight in the streets of
Baghdad?" said Stark.
Despite the continued consideration of S. 89 in the Senate
both presidential candidates have
made statements indicating there
will be no d raft.
"I hear there's rumors on the
Internets that we're going to have
a draft. We're not going to have
a draft, period. The all-volunteer Army works. It works particularly when we pay our troops
well. It works when we make sure
they've got housing, like we have
done in the last military budgets.
And all-volunteer Army is best

We don't need mass armies anymore," said President Bush during
the Friday October 8 debate.
"Forget all this talk about a

a d raft so long as I'm the president," added Bush.
"Let me tell you where the
president's policies have put us .

John Kerry during the debate.
"I don't support a d raft," stated
Kerry.

Know your alcohol
Requirement must be fulfilled this week
BY KIN SCHLATTER
Pride Staff Writer
All incoming freshman and transfer students who attended orientation this past
summer will be required to take an alcohol
prevention program.
Students to which the requirement
applies must successfully pass the final
exam with a grade of 70 percent or better
no later than October 15, 2004. Students
that fail to complete the requirement will
have a hold placed on their registration for
spring 2005 classes.
In order to satisfy the alcohol education
requirement students are required to complete a program called AlcoholEdu, which
is on-line education course designed for
college students.
There are two parts to the AlcoholEdu
course that need to be completed to satisfy the requirement. The first part of the
course requires completion of a final exam
and post-survey.
The second part of the course requires
the completion of a "course conclusion"
which will be emailed to students approximately 30 days after completion of the
first part of the course. The "course conclusion" must be submitted by December
7 in order to fulfill the alcohol education
requirement.
Informing
students
about
the
facts and risks of alcohol consumption is the goal of AlcoholEdu.
AlcoholEdu was created by Outside the
Classroom, an online education company,
and is currently being used by over 350 college campuses.
The decision to use the AlcoholEdu program came from the university's Substance
Abuse Advisory Council.
The Substance Abuse Advisory council is a group of faculty, students, staff
and members of the local community who
work on alcohol prevention for the campus
and the city of San Marcos.
"The council reviewed several prevention programs that could be delivered to
our students and chose Alcohol EDU as
the tool for all of our incoming students to
use as part of their orientation to our campuses," said Bridget Blanshan director of
Student and Residential Life and member
of the Substance Abuse Advisory Council.
"The course was designed to give students
information to assist them into making
wise decisions about alcohol use and let
students learn their own limits about alcohol consumption."
Jonathon Poullard, associate vice president for Student Affairs, also has a seat on
the Substance Abuse Advisory Council.
"The Alcohol EDU Prevention Program
is a broad-base population approach to
establishing and reinforcing a norm around
consumption," said Poullard.
Students that have any questions about
meeting the requirement can call Deb
Fritsrold at Students and Residential
Life @ (760)-750-4952. More information about the requirement can be found

Open forum for 'Fahrenheit 9/11
BY ALFRED CHU
Pride Staff Writer
With the heightened interest
of the scheduled appearance of
Michael Moore at the Del Mar
fairgrounds, and the upcoming
election, a screening of the controversial documentary "Farenhenheit 9/11" was presented in
the A rts 240 building on October
5.
Among the audience, was a
panel of distinguished speakers such as Scott Greenwood,
CSUSM professor of political
science, Beth Accomando, KPBS
film critic, and Daniel McSwain,
editorial page editor of the North
County Times.
The screening began at 6p.m.
and was followed by a group discussion conducted by the panel
of speakers. Most of the audience seemed to enjoy the film as
laughter occasionally swept the
room.
Admission prices were $2.50
for Cal State San Marcos students, $3 for faculty and staff and
$4 for other guests.
A fter the screening, audience
members exchanged opinions
and views with each other and
with the panel of speakers. The

�Oktoberfest lives on
BY PETER SCHWARTZ
Pride Staff Writer
Oktoberfest arrived at CSUSM
as entertainers Bill and Erma
Fassel performed with their
Group D'Zwon Bergtaler.
"The event was
successful and fed
CSUSM students
at the rate of 200
bratwurst hot dog
plates per hour"
The festival came to the Mezzanine playing Bavarian polkas,
waltzes, ballads and dancing
called Schuhplatters. Schuhplatters consist of a duo dancing in
circles arm in arm, while intermittently slapping the soles of
their shoes.
"My family has always loved
the Schuplatter tradition," said
Erma Fassel, "which originated
when the Germari village folk
observed bird mating dances
while playing classical music"
"The Oktoberfest tradition
started in the middle ages when
King Ludwig 1 married Theresa
of Saxon and threw a huge party
for the event," said Bill Fassel,
who is three-fourths Austrian
and one-fourth Bavarian. It went
so well that he decided to do it
again next year.
The tradition has lived on as
a lavish party and celebrates the
fall harvest in the Bundesland.
In modern Germany Oktoberfest is celebrated in many places
but mainly in the big city of
Munich located in the southern
province of Bavaria.
The cultural event happens
when the people set up nine huge
tents, holding about 10,000 people
each and having an authentic
twenty-five man brass band playing folk music for residents and
visitors from around the world.
A variety of different beers are
served and traditional attire is
worn to signify the history of the
region.
CSUSM's Oktoberfest was
an ASI sponsored event developed by Tanja Schroder, director
Bill Fassel plays the accordion for students at the Mezzanine.
of ASI cultural events, and Jen
Kitter, director of annual events.
"The event was successful and
fed CSUSM students at the rate
of 200 bratwurst hot dog plates
per hour/' said Kitter. Drinks,
sauerkraut and fried onions were
also served.
"If you missed the event, ASI
has plans for another fun Oktoberfest but you'll have to wait
until next year," said Schroder.
Students receive bratwurst hot dogs from ASI.

Lunafest presents films b enefiting breast cancer awareness f und
BY ALLISON SANSBURY
Pride Staff Writer
Lunafest is a traveling film
festival that features movies and
short films created by, for and
about women. Cal State San
Marcos got two chances to catch
the Lunafest this year, once on
October 8 and October 9.
Lunafest is sponsored by Lunabar, a nutritional bar. Luna-bar is
presently an active sponsor of the
Breast Cancer Awareness Fund.
Being Breast Cancer Awareness month, there could not be a
more appropriate time to have the
festival.
The makers of the Luna-bar,
Clif Bar Inc., created the Lunabar in response to female consumers and women employees of
Clif Bar Inc.
The films that played at Lunafest this year were, "A Good
Uplift", "Shui Hen", "Little Black
Boot", "Wet Dreams and False
Images", "Velvet Tigress", "La
Milpa/The Cornfield" and "Dysenchanted".
The Breast Cancer Awareness
Fund is a nonprofit organization
focused on identifying the
causes of breast cancer
and preventing the disease. Cures for breast
cancer can vary but the
extreme involves removing the breast.
Portions of the profits from
ticket sales go to the Breast
Cancer Fund. The first ever
Lunafest raised $7,000 in 2001.
Although, last year $21,500 was
raised.
The next stop for the Lunafest
is in Seattle, Washington. Lunafest will then continue its trip
across the U.S.
Shows ranging from the Lunabar headquarters in Berkeley to
Boston and
even Canada.
The Lunabar also
sponsors
other
groups
such as the
Luna Chix,
the official professional mountain biking team of Luna-bar.

�Jock Talk With Josh
BY JOSH SANDOVAL
Pride Staff Writer
"Friday NightLights"
starring Billy Bob
Thornton was released
last week and j ust like
every other sports
movie that comes out, I
j ust had to see it.
There have been quite
I a few sports movies that
have been disappointing like "For The Love of The Game"
with Kevin Costner or "The Rookie" with
Dennis Quaid and no disrespect to those
guys but they don't belong on the field
trying to imitate athletes.
Actors trying to play coaches hasn't
exactly worked out too well either; j ust ask
A1 Pacino in "Any Given Sunday" which
was not one of his greatest performances.
So when I heard Billy Bob Thornton was
going to play the part of head coach Gary
Gaines in this movie I didn't exactly have
the best feeling.
However, Billy Bob did not disappoint
in this role. He played the role of the head
coach of the Permian High Panthers in the
small town of Odessa, Texas.
Permian high was profiled in an issue
of Sports Illustrated in 1988 that told the
story of this football team that had to overcome many obstacles to narrowly lose in
the Texas state football championship.
In small towns of Texas, high school
football is everything to the people. The
entire town shuts down on Friday nights
so that everyone can catch the game.
With so much focus on the sport, the
student athletes and coaches feel the pres-
DEGREE
sure to perform.
The star running back for the Panthers
was Boobie Miles (Played by Derek Luke)
who had his ticket written to pretty much
any college until he got hurt the first game
of the season with a knee injury. Boobie
felt so much pressure that he tried to come
back too early and he f urther injured his
knee.
Many kids who play football feel extra
pressure because their dads were great
football players and such was the case of
Don Billingsley. Billingsley is played by
Garret Hedlund and his dad is played by
country western star Tim McGraw. Billingsley is constantly being berated by his
father for not living up to what his father
accomplished when he played football.
For some kids in these small towns their
only ticket out is through football and
such was the case for quarterback Mike
Winchell (played by Lucas Black). A fter
the injury to Boobie, Winchell was forced
to find a way to get this team to the championship when not much was expected of
him at the beginning of the season.
The story of Coach Gaines is then
intertwined with those young kids showing that the athletes aren't the only ones
who have to overcome a lot of pressure
and expectations.
This story is a story that the non sports
fan will even enjoy as it is more a story
about people and their shortcomings that
they can overcome with perseverance.
If you have any praise, criticism or
topics for discussion then send me an Email to Sando026@csusm.edu

�Is Mother Nature a Democrat or Republican?
FROM THE RIGHT
Mother Nature
loves you. If you
think about it,
she's pretty damn
tolerant.
People
litter the world
with their trash
and pollute the air
Polly
Charoenkwanchai around them, yet
she is constantly
attempting to rejuvenate the earth. We
assume that she can do this fast enough
to catch up to the bag of chips we hastily
threw on the road yesterday or the factory down the road. Amid the busy life
of a student, there is little or no time to
think about the environment.
Most of us are hypocrites. We say we
care about the nature of the world while
almost all of us continue to drive vehicles that pollute the air. It's a catch-22!
I am opposed to drilling oil in Alaska,
but I love my little Honda Civic which
consumes gas like a frat boy gulps down
beer. I hate the thought of wild life losing
their habitat, but that doesn't make me
want to walk to work.
So what is the solution?
Should we forgo cars and live off the
land? I believe that there are little things
people can do to help Mother Nature
help us:
Don't Litter. Trashcans are virtually
everywhere nowadays; it wouldn't hurt
to walk the extra eight steps to dispose
your garbage.
Carpool. It saves money, it helps the
environment and you have your own
specially designated lane on the f reeway. Better yet, use a bike to reach your
destination. I 'm not suggesting you bike
if you live in San Marcos and work in
Poway, but you can certainly bike to the
market down the block. Once again, it
saves money, it helps the environment
and provides great exercise.
You know those trashcans that are
specified for certain types of trash? Plastics, cans, bottles and papers? Those are
cans that help people recycle. They're
all over campus! It shouldn't be hard to
figure out where you should dump your
soda can. Recycling allows less trash to
be sent to the landfills, thereby saving
natural resources such as trees, oil and
aluminum.
The Bush administration passed a
Clean Air Act that supposedly restricts
air pollution by installing new pollution,
control that will regulate major factory
upgrades. This act would work if they did
not also propose a revision to the rules
called the New Source Review, which
would make it simple for these plants to
find a loophole to avoid or delay installing the pollution reduction technologies.
This administration has also proposed
to exterminate an act that would protect about 58 million acres of national
forest, thereby allowing logging on more
open land. The Bush administration has
consistently proposed laws that hurt the
environment.
Although
Kerry has had
his share of
blemishes (he
voted against
the
maintenance of forest
road
service
and
wildlife
habitat
programs),
but
he is endorsed
by the Sierra
Club, a national
e nvironmental organization. Kerry has
voted to protect California
deserts. He has
proposed
to
end commercial whaling and illegal trading
on whale meat. Kerry has voted
repeatedly to block oil drilling
in ANWR (Artie National Wildlife Refuge).
Despite the words of politicians, it is imperative that we
do something to help the precious and fragile condition of
the earth. Whether your course
of action leads you to the voting
booth or not, it is time to realize that we have responsibilities
towards Mother Nature before
it's too late.
Some days at
CSUSM I feel like
the lone buoy of
moderate conservatism floating in
a sea of radical liberals:
professors
preach the futility
Phoenix Lindgren of the war in Iraq —
and regime change
in November ~ f rom their classroom
pulpits, the liberal PAN is the most vocal
group on campus and Kerry buttons on
back packs appear to outnumber Bush
buttons at least a thousand to one.
But I never feel
alone when it comes to
environmental issues.
I, too, have a fondness
for clean air and water
and space for wildlife. I recycle what I
can on campus, and
curbside at my house
(paper, plastic, glass,
aluminum, and clean
greens). I quit commuting to reduce my
car's emissions (and
my stress level). I ride
my scooter to work
when the weather's
Photos by Jason Encabo / The Pride
nice to save energy. And I'm religious
about turning off lights and keeping my
water use to a minimum.
It warms the cockles of my heart to
see students walking to campus, overflowing recycling bins and f ull carpool
spaces in our parking lots, but I've also
seen plenty of recyclables in the garbage,
garbage left for someone else to pick up,
and students being dropped off in front
of Craven by family or friends rather
than being inconvenienced by public
transportation.
One of my biggest on-campus pet
peeves is those among us who use the
electric doors unnecessarily. I know it's
probably not a huge amount of wasted
electricity, and I have no argument if
your hands are f ull or you really do have
trouble opening a door for yourself, but
I'm constantly following people — particularly through Craven ~ who appear
to use the electric door buttons as a personal, energy-wasting convenience.
How each of us chooses to treat the
environment is something that can't be
legislated, in spite of beliefs to the contrary by my liberal colleagues. Yes, the
state can mandate that the school recycles
a certain volume of refuse, but unless
you choose to put your recyclables into
the right bin, no mandate can keep plastic and paper out of the waste stream.
You're also the only one who can
choose to pre-cycle — that is buy products with less packaging to reduce waste
~ take care of your clothes so they last
longer, and bring a reusable mug with
you to pour your organically grown
coffee in. The government can legislate
lower emissions for cars, but you're the
one who controls what manufacturers
offer based on what cars you buy. And
legislation is useless when it comes to
whether or not you choose to alter your
lifestyle in order to reduce the number of
miles you drive each year, or whether or
not when the time comes to start investing your hard-earned money you invest
in companies that treat the environment
(and their workers) well.
Who would you rather have r unning a
major corporation: a person whose only
motivation for corporate responsibility
is legislated, or a person who believes in
the principal of personal responsibility
and extends that belief to how their corporation conducts its business?

�Dear Editor,
I'm sure you all know but
in case you don't October
18th-21st are the dates for
the voting for the Childcare
Services Fee Referendum
to keep the Early Learning
Center open. The Early
Learning Center is CSUSM's
answer for childcare for
student parents.
I know there are many of
you out there who would like
to vote no because you don't
want to pay for something
you are not going to use. I
understand that, however
many of us pay for fees here
we don't use, books we don't
read, a parking structure
we will never see. This ten
dollars is at least going to
a humanitarian cause: the
education of children.
The Early Learning Center
enables many parents the
ability to continue their
education to provide a
better life for their children,
provides childcare to CSUSM
faculty & the community, as
well as provides internships,
employment opportunities
and more. It is a wonderful
program. As you could guess,
I am a student parent; my
daughter Madison age three
has attended the "school" as
she calls it, for a little over a
year and she loves it. In that
time, she has become potty
trained, learned toridea
tricycle, can count to twenty,
is recognizing numbers, is
learning to write her name,
and is learning valuable social
skills. She would have met
these milestones eventually
but I know that they have
been met sooner and with
more understanding with
the love and support of the
ELC staff behind her. I really
hope students realize that this
is not about ten more little
dollars (it's only two or three
Starbucks©), but it's about
the big picture and as cheesy
as it sounds, children are our
future.
The children who attend
the center might be only
between the ages of 2 and
5 but they still care about
their school. If the vote
doesn't pass the ELC will
be forced to close its doors.
How awful would that be for
this to be these children's
first educational experience;
a school they have been so
comfortable in and have
grown to love being closed
because CSUSM couldn't
fit it in their budget. Please
do therightthing for these
children, please protect their
school, please protect their
teacher's jobs, please vote yes
and encourage others to do so.

Dear pride/editor:
For the last weeks it seems
that all you write about is
Michael Moore.When the
controversy began there were
even four more pages of the
edition. I want to know who
makes the decision on what
to write. AtfirstI thought that
the writters only wrote about
events that gave out free food.
There was a report about the
president's pick-nick and
the recycling thing, both
events gave out free food.
But between those two events
there was another event that
gave free food but there was
nothing written about it.
Maybe it was because it was
a celebration of the Mexican
independence day. Or maybe
it was because MEChA was
an organizer of that event. I
do not know the answer but I
thought that a cultural event
that included dance and poetry
would be something to be
reported about, but it was not
the case. This week we have
some more Michael Moore
news, and I bet that next week
there will be some more.
There was another event that
I think was important but
the Pride did not take into
consideration writting about
it. This event was announced
the universtity's home page.
I'm referring to Preview Day
which was held last Saturday
here on campus. It is the first
year that this event takes place
here and it was organized
by the University Outreach
and Recruitment. There were
many people that worked hard
to put this event together and
again the Pride didn't write
about it. Thank you for your
time.

Pressure Chief

BY AMIRA EL-KHAOULI
Pride Staff Writer
Any man daring enough to
wear pink is alright in my book.
So imagine my intrigue when
picking up Cake's latest album
Pressure Chief. Both the packaging and the CD inside were
covered in vintage-inspired pink
decals.
Pressure Chief is by far Cake's
most eclectic album yet. The
band stretches the genre of ska to
its fullest extent by including so
many things not typically heard
in the alternative rock category.
There are trumpets galore,
mostly present in the first song
"Wheels" but they're used
throughout the entire album. The
banjo is prominent in "End of the
Movie" to convey the mood of an
old picture.
Overall, this album is so
diverse that you really need to
listen to every song to get the feel
of what Cake is trying to accomplish. Each song is more melodic
than the last and everything just
works well together.
"No Phone" is the second track
and is headlining the record. It's
very much electronica-inspired
and has the catchiest tune out of

Police officer Washburn (Jimmy Fallon) flags down a taxi.
'Fare'ly awful
BY RYAN JAMES
Pride Staff Writer
Saturday Night Live is a hit,
but we can't say the same thing
for Jimmy Fallon's acting career.
The lead role of police officer
Washburn is played by Fallon.
Washburn is striving to please
his police officer father by being
a prestigious upholder of the law.
In his attempts to obtain this
dream, Washburn encounters
many obstacles, the number one
obstacle being his phobia of driving.
"Taxi" opens with Washburn
in undercover attire blowing
a case and then proceeding to
wreck a squad car, an aspect he is
known for among his force. He
then becomes the laughing stock
of the NYPD due to a newspaper
cover story of his idiocy.
Upset with Washburn's terrible driving record, lieutenant
Ruby (Jennifer Esposito) revokes
his driver license and sends him
walking. While walking home a
bank robbery in progress is called
into Washburn's radio. Quick to
redeem himself Washburn flags
down a taxi, but not just any taxi,
the suped up too fast too f urious taxi of Belle (Queen Latifah). Washburn leads Belle on
an ongoing pursuit of a gang of
four beautiful Brazilian models,
I mean bank robbers led by Vanessa, played by Vitorias Secret
model Gisele Bundchen.
When we as viewers go to
see movies like "Taxi" we don't
expect to see the greatest movie
ever, but we do expect to get
some laughs and leave the theater with a sense of enjoyment.
While I did have the occasional
laugh, it was short, and usually
inspired by Belle, not our leading
man Washburn. Queen Latifah's
role of Belle and even the role
of Washburns drunkard mother
(Ann-Margaret) outshined leading man Fallon. This movie
lacks the one- liners that make
comedies successful. While a
fan of Fallon, he wasn't able to
cross over his comedic act on to
the big screen. I do not recommend this movie.
Taxi driver Belle (Queen Latifah) argues with Police officer Washburn (Fallon)

The Italian translation of
"grappa" literally stands for
grape pomace acquavite: "water
of life". Grappa was first produced in Italy around 1000 A.D.
It used to be considered a poor
man's drink. However, during
the 1960's and 1970's, the evolution of distilling technology
and v ast improvements in wine
production all contributed to the
reincarnation of grappa which is
now known to be an elegant Italian brandy. Grappa, the restaurant, serves grappa f rom $7- $18

coupons for Grappa inside Clipper magazine. Grappa contains

from 4-7p.m. daily. Grappa also
provides f ree Internet service
while you dine. All you have to
do is bring in your laptop and
they'll provide you with WiFi.
Grappa has a great environment for all to enjoy a nice f ulfilling and refreshing meal either
inside or outside on the patio. The
servers provide excellent service
to ensure that you are more than
satisfied with your meal.
"Grappa has a great atmosphere," said server Danielle
Trombi, "and I truly enjoy serving all the different people who
come in."
Their extensive menu consists
of golden fried zucchini served
with marinara sauce, antipasto
and a wonderful platter of golden
fried calamari, shrimp, zucchini
and parmesan french f ries. They
also serve salads, soups, sandwiches/panini, pastas, rotisserie
and a variety of meals off the
grill.

their oakwood fired pizzas and
homemade desserts...both are so
very hard to pass up.

great food, great service, great

A crowd of approximately 10,000 was on hand at the
Del Mar Fairgrounds Tuesday, October 12 foi Michael
Moore's anticipated appearance. During this stop on
his "Slacker Uprising Tour," Moore announced that the
remaining funds raised for the evening's event would go
to a scholarship/grant program for CSUSM students.
ASI president Manal Yamout began the event nearly
an hour after the scheduled start time of 7p.m. She
addressed the crowd before introducing Michael

Students protest event
BY HEATHER HOFFMANN
Pride Staff Writer
Approximately 150 students
and community members filled
the street corner at Via De La
Valle and Jimmy Durante Boulevard in Del Mar to protest
before the appearance of filmmaker Michael Moore.
CSUSM College Republicans
organized the event and developed a website to get community members involved. The
website stated the purpose of the
protest was to let people know,
"enough is enough, we are tired
of Michael Moore's rhetoric and
we are going to stand up against
him and support our Government, President, capitalism,
troops, and foreign policy."
The protesters came from
all over San Diego County to
express their disapproval of this
stop of Moore's "Slacker Uprising Tour." They held signs,
some of which read "hippies
go home, honk for bush, no flip
flops in the white house, and no
'Moore' lies." Some protesters
also chanted "4 more years" at
passing motorists.
College Republicans Nick
Bonomi and Ashley Stuart lightened the mood of the demonstration by dressing as President
Bush and as a GOP elephant
respectively.
"We're focusing on keeping
positive," said Eileen Liston,
external vice chair of the Col-
An unexpected downpour Monday
morning could not prevent the Graduate and Professional School Fair
from going on as planned.
"We didn't expect the rain," said
Susan Buck-Allen from Career and
Transfer Student Services, coordinator of the fair. "So far, everything
has worked out great."
The Director of Career and Transfer Services Sandy Punch was
pleased with the turnout and the
quick improvisation.
"We had a mad rush to bring
tables in from the rain," said Punch.
The booths that were set up in the
Kellogg Library Terrace area had
to be moved under the cover of the
library's overhang.
The fair can not be rescheduled
because it is part of a circuit that
travels to other college campuses.
"We have no choice of the date,"
said Punch. "We were lucky we got
in (the circuit) early."
The fair is held once a year in the
fall. It includes representatives from
different graduate schools as well as
a workshop for students to hopes to
remove some of the mystique of post
baccalaureate education.
"The workshop helps in dispelling the myths of grad school," said
Punch. Other topics at the workshop included how to apply to grad
school, financial aid and the experience of being a first generation grad
student.
Schools from as far away as New
York and Australia were represented
at the fair.
"Australian universities offer
many of the same programs as U.S.
schools," said Eddy Dharmadji of
Macquarie University near Sydney.
"And of course, there isfinancialaid
available."
Despite the inclement weather,
more than half of the 65 schools
expected to attend were present.

�Students
discuss
debate
BY SARAH COLESON
Pride Staff Writer
Around 25 students assembled
in Clark Field House on Wednesday, October 13 to watch President
George W. Bush and Senator John
Kerry put forward their positions on
Social Security, immigration, minimum wage law and the war in Iraq
at the final presidential debate.
While watching the candidates,
the student panelists, Democrats
and Republicans alike, jotted down
notes to prepare themselves for the
discussion that followed. A student
panel consisting of three Bush supporters (Nick Bonomi, Stephen
Puetz and Matthew Curren) as well
as three panelists who supported
Kerry (Didi Lund, Dustin Lacasse
and John Baden) talked about key
issues regarding the presidential
election. Dr. Scott Greenwood, a
professor of political science on
campus, acted as moderator of the
panel.
Each member was allocated four
minutes to share their reaction to
the debate, their favorite debate
moments as well as key issues that
they felt were absent from the candidates' statements.
"The only time President Bush
mentioned women in his speech, it
was in reference to their reproductive organs," s^id Lund, president of
the Women's Studies Student Association Didi Lund.
Lund raised other key women's
issues that she felt were overlooked
in the debate.
"When you look at the debate, John
Kerry's policies are very appealing," said Bonomi, executive director of College Republicans. Bonomi
also shared his personal experiences
watching Kerry campaign in person
months before and pointed out what
he saw as a change in the senators'
stance on key issues. He went on to
say that some of Kerry's actual proposals were "180 degrees opposite"
of what he stated in the debate.
After the panelists made their
statements, Greenwood opened the
floor for questions from the audience. Issues such as abortion, gay
marriage, and separation of church
and state were brought up by students and panel members responded
to the audience questions.
"If the reason for denying gay
people the right to get married is
to protect the sanctity of marriage,
then why don't we have a limit on
the number of divorces a person
can have?" said Baden, president of
the University Foreign Aid Organization, in response to a question
from an audience member regarding
President Bush's proposal of a constitutional amendment to prohibit
gay marriage.
The discussion that ensued was
indicative of the divided partisan
affiliations of the panel members.
Despite the partisan wrangling, the
ultimate goal of the evening was to
give students the chance to actively
engage in a dialogue regarding
political issues with their peers.
EVENT, from page 1
"What started out as a negative situation, really turned into an overwhelmingly
positive experience" said Yamout about the
attempted cancellation of the event. "I've
been at Cal State San Marcos for almost four
years now and I'll tell you I've never seen the
students more excited and more invigorated
by any issue ever. Conservatives, liberals
everybody in between has been so riled up
the past few weeks, and it's been inspiring
to me, and it's been inspiring to the community."
Yamout thanked donors Herring Broadcasting and Mr. and Mrs. Joe Fernandez for
their financial contributions, then let Moore
take the stage.
"I know it's been a rough road for the students," said Moore. "The whole thing was
set up and because of pressure on the administration (of CSUSM) our right to speak and
your right to listen was taken from us."
Moore remarked how the original plan
was for a small event of 1200-1500 people.
Crediting what he called the "Republican,
conservative attitude of trying to prohibit
free speech in San Diego County," the event
grew almost ten times.
"I think we need to do something else here
so that the administration of Cal State San
Marcos never ever even thinks of doing this
again to any speaker of any political party,"
said Moore.
Moore announced that the proceeds of the
event would go toward a scholarship/grant
program at Cal State San Marcos.
"Each year for the next four years we will
hand out a $5,000
grant or scholarship
to the one student who
has fought and stood
up the most to the
administration of Cal
State San Marcos,"
said Moore. Moore
said that students

should nominate other Joan Baez and Tom Morello.
Morello took the stage and rallied the crowd
students for the scholarship/grant by submitting a one page essay about "just how much with statements in favor of peace, human
hell this one student raised, and how suc- rights, workers' rights and women's rights.
Morello also sang a song called "House
cessful they were."
In his speech Moore joked with the crowd Gone Up in Flames" about citizen inaction
as he spewed harsh criticisms of Presi- over poor governmental policy.
Michael Moore read several letters from
dent Bush, the war in Iraq, censorship and
CSUSM President Karen Haynes. He said soldiers in Iraq who were disillusioned by the

PROTEST, from page 1
Republicans. "Michael Moore is picking
slackers because they are not going to be the
ones who educate themselves."
The motorists in the area were just as
divided as the protesters and the Moore supporters.
Horns honked frequently in support while
other cars held up signs supporting Kerry
or middle fingers. When people yelled at
the protestors, several would respond with
"Bush hater!"
One woman motorist at a red light was
clearly unhappy with the protest. She stuck
her arm out the window and displayed her
middle finger to the protestors. As the
woman waited for the light, she sat there with
herfingerup glaring at the protestors. When
a protestor in the crosswalk approached her
car, she put her car in reverse, and drove
right at him. The man quickly jumped out of
the way and was not harmed.

Michael Moore protesters rally outside of the Del Mar Fairgrounds
Unusually long traffic lights made for a
lengthy wait at the crosswalks, forcing those
who parked off site to deal with the protestors. This gave both sides a chance to voice
their opinions face to face. At times things
became heated but never amounted to any-
thing more than angry words.
"I felt a little uncomfortable, it was weird
being in the middle of a protest, but everyone
was being really nice," said CSUSM senior
DanaEricson.

Students pay $75 a semester to Student Health Services (SHS),
but many students don't know what services are included for
their money.
In addition to the general medical services, vaccinations and
pharmacy, student health services now o ffers counseling.
The counseling department helps about 350 students a semester, that's about 5 percent of the CSUSM student body. The counseling center helps students deal with issues of stress, depression, relationship issues as well as roommate issues j ust to name
a few.
Currently, the counseling staff is relatively small. It consists of
two fulltime psychologists and three Ph.D. level interns.
"Counseling is certainly an area were looking to expand, as

purses are a must have and can be found
everywhere. Metallic bags especially
gold are also the hot item of this season.
Now with your bag, you need the perfect pumps to match.
The best pump will be anything sweet
and chic. Pumps adorned with a prim
bow, embellished with f ur, snake skin or
bejeweled with a brooch are all sizzling
attributes to your fabulous shoes.
Jackets are an important item for fall's
chilly weather. Be sure to pick the right
ones. Your jacket should be elegant tweed,
one with showy sequins or trimmed with
f ur. Fur is in but don't worry you don't
have to kill a bunny to snatch the look.
Faux far works great as well.
Remember, these jackets are versatile;
pair the jacket up with a matching skirt,
jeans, over a sexy frock or with cropped
pants. Let the special piece (your jacket)
stand out by keeping the accessories
simple in this case.
As for men, this year's fall fashion
is sporty yet classy and old school yet
fresh.
Vintage inspired items f rom the 70's
are back again with a whole new twist.
Down vests have been spotted as the
new trend. These vests can be worn over
button down shirts and jackets. They
keep you warm and are comfortable as
well. These down vests are hip in any
color: bright orange, green, yellow, basic
black, brown or khaki will all do.
Argyle sweaters are an essential for
men. The diamonds are everywhere; they
are on crewnecks, cardigans and sweater
vests. Layering one of these is the biggest
style this season.
Pinstriped pants are also the " it"
look. These pants are perfect for casual
or formal occasions. Don't be afraid to
pair up the pin-stripe pants with f unky
striped shirts and argyle sweaters. Navy
and gray, gray and brown, or brown and
orange are all worthy color combinations
when it comes to pinstriped pants.

�Perfecting mediocrity
D on t try too hard, remember C = Degree
BY MICHELLE ROBINSON
For The Pride
T he only challenge I've ever stepped up
to was a fat burger and conquering a mean
new dance. While these are definitely not
adequate deterrents in life, they can still
be classified as challenges, can't they?
Academically speaking, numbers are my
kryptonite. The bright-eyed spitfire I typically can be will suddenly morph into a
sweating, babbling mess as I struggle to
carry an invisible number that doesn't even
go there. Though, I did meet that challenge
and pass college math, never to return to
it again.
I've been a mediocre student all of my
life. I never minded this fact nor did I envy
the students who did the whole "inquisitive youngster" routine. A fter all, I was
busy trying to pry the remote control out
of my brother's hand. And while the overachieving science students got ribbons for
watching a potato grow sprouts, I wrote
love poems to various crushes, made f un
of teachers with chalk on their bums, and
practiced my Oscar acceptance speech in
the bathroom mirror. I never made honor
roll, and it's been decided that I shan't
make the Dean's list.
Upon this revelation, I made myself comfortable. For it was here, in this middle of
nowhere as a student, that I would become
perfect. It's here, in the plush cushioning
of mediocrity, where I will strive. Perhaps
"striving" for a C sounds ludicrous, and it
is. That's because I don't mean to strive for
a C. My aim is to idle towards one; meander about the university, and let a C attach
itself to my student body.
Jenny Foster, a communications major,
says that her parents think she's an excellent student. When I asked her if she
really was, she looked at me as if I was
a giant talking shoe. "No way" she said.
Although Jenny says she's not the greatest of students, she is in fact graduating
this year. My pool of mediocrity is getting
crowded.
There are those students, however, that
were most likely the potato sprout watchers. Over the summer, I took Spanish 201
with a liberal arts major. During a test, she
began to hyperventilate, claw at her face
and desk, whimper and finally vomit a
little bit in her mouth. Afterwards, when
I asked her why, she simply said, " I am an
A student. I'm just not good at Spanish. I
have to pass." The sunshine that I chose
to dispense? "Dude, all you need is a C !"
A fter which I extended my right hand for
the underachiever hi-five.
You see if and when I decide to go to
class, I sit in the back. I eat my banana,
and I am the first to ask one of three key
phrases that epitomizes the mediocrity of
my studiousness: "Is there anything due?"
"What did we do?" and "Is there anything
new?" These are imperative questions to
ensure that my position as a perfect mediocre student will not change. Right down
the middle, kids.
I'm not saying college is easy, or that
it should be, mind you. What I am saying
is that although I should, I simply do not
apply myself. I do indeed have potential
for straight A's, but meeting my potential
for straight A's, why, that's a challenge,
isn't it? If I go and do that, it would blow
my perfecting mediocrity theory. I would
then be excelling at academics and the bar
would be raised. I'd meet that, and then the

bar would rise yet again. Before you know
it, I'd be in the Olympics or the next Bobby
Fisher, playing chess and showing off my
great big brain. No thank you, I've got my
special skill. Since floating, coasting, or
gliding through college can be a skill if
done correctly, the challenge of teetering
just right, between the "real" world and
the college life is like an art. I'm almost
a geisha.

wants you to believe that focusing on terrorism is fear-mongering on the part of the right, but
that denies the ongoing impact of
9/11 on our lives; I'm not afraid
of being killed by a terrorist, but
I am concerned about what will
happen to our nation if al-Qaida
is successful again. Like it or
not capitalism depends entirely
on people making and spending
money. So if nobody's making
money because we stop taking
vacations, buying new cars, getting raises, going to the movies,
investing
in
infrastructure,
and the zillion other capitalist
activities that slowed or stopped
because of 9/11, then America
fails to thrive, and that means
fewer of those wonderful entitlement programs my left-leaning
comrades are so fond of, less aid
to other countries, and so on. It's
a downward spiral we can't afford
to see repeated any time soon.
So weigh your facts. Get
informed. Listen to what everybody has to say. Read between
the lines. But don't let anybody
make your choices for you; you
wouldn't want me or Michael
Moore or your professors telling
you what to eat, so b e as fiercely
independent about how you're
going to vote. The Pied Piper
led the children of Hamelin into

you into failing to think for yourself.

But, the payments of chafe
and malnutrition will be worth
the discomfort If this paper stops
playing with t he Moore issue
like a pubescent boy plays with
his,..column. Coming off the
'Letters to t he Editor' last week
was a kindred spirit of cynicism,
accusation, and Pride criticism.
Carmelino C ruz wrote, "For
the last weeks it seems that ail
you [the Pride] write about is
Michael Moore." Then adds,
"I want to know who makes the
decision on what t o write."
Well Carmelino, let's prick
and pry t he Pride. Shall we?
On Tuesday nights t he collection of writers we call staffers,
get together with t he heads-incharge (editors) and stories are
divvied out amongst the crowd.
Most are suggested by the heads,
but writers are encouraged to
toss up a couple of cookies as
w ell Writers volunteer for the
choices offered, or succumb to
the pleas of the editors. And
if that doesn't work, they loop

In this democratic oligarchy
w e get the stories that show up,
A few, like Josh and I, do regular columns (m case you missed
t he obvious). You can spot these
by the grinning mug shots. A nd
j ust between you and me, I suspect our faces are there so disgruntled readers can corner us
in a dark alley. Which is why I
don't look a damn thing like my
mug.
-WHISPER MODE - ON:
T m actually a n obnoxious, tall,
blonde dude, with a Vanilla Ice
haircut, who doesn't smoke.' WHISPER MODE - OFF.
Now, you should know kindred spirits of cynicism, that
our writers are not paid for their
troubles; they have jobs and
classes to attend, and some even
claim to have families. If that
weren't enough, the time budget
they're usually given for the stories is two, maybe three days.
My colon takes longer to pass
an apple.
So for all my harsh wit on
their articles, I always stand i n
amazement that our staffers get
their no-wage j obs done at all,
(Don't tell 'em I said that.)
While on the subject of harsh
wit, our Mr, Milo w as lambasted
by Mr. Bryan Watkins for his
article on the d raft b ill
But before you get his words,
you get mine.
I don't know who did the
description under the front-page
picture of f uture Devil-Dogs
taking the oath, but a Rear Admiral wears a Squid's uniform, less
things have changed since I was
in. Also, please be sure my past
fellow E-Club drinking buddies
have their service spelt Corps,
not Core. I think going through
the hardest of boots and volunteering to be a "bullet-dodger"
deserves at least a proper spell
check. If that's not incentive
enough, keep in mind these few
and proud are trained to shoot
and 'blow *@#$ u p/ J ust an
observation.
Now, onto Mr. Watkins'
words. Bryan writes, "This
article is riddled with misinformation that if taken for face
value can undermine the legislative process as well as confuse
the students of California State
University San M arcos/' Well,
I'd hate to think the Pride might
"confuse the students," and we
definitely don't want the Pride to
"undermine the legislative pro-
cess," Whatever shall we do?
I comply with Mr. Watkins
final point in his letter, " I strongly
urge you to research your facts
before printing t hem" To say
the least, duh! On h is point
about the confusion and undermining that might take place, I
think both Mr, Watkins' letter
and Mr. Milo's article share the
same probs.
There seems to b e a hint of
' false dilemma' and an itty-bitty
bit of assumptions phrased as
facts. Having read Mr. Milo's
article, I realized that " Draft legislation alive in senate" was as
misleading a header, as 'athletic
build' tends to be in Personals.
By the conclusion of the article
my worries concerning a draft
were put to rest by all the quotes
that suggested otherwise. I get
the same catharsis, when I get to
the ass-end of TV news and find
that the 'thing I don't know that
might kill me,' has the same odds
as m y winning an argument with
my better half.
I agree the use of such sensationalistic journalism leaves
a NutraSweet taste on my palette. The Pride should avoid
those 'read this or s uffer' headers. On the other hand, I doubt
anyone would have read ' Draft
legislation a possible, maybe,
not really, well sorta something
they're not really thinking about
in senate.'
Mr. Milo did start his article
o ff with all the icing, but after
chewing upon it, I discovered it
was a fruitcake. Same goes for
Mr. Watkins. " Confuse the students," and "undermine the legislative process" are empty calories to swallow. As for facts, the
d raft bill is a dead horse, and Ms.
Milo (the addressee of Mr. Watkins' letter) pees standing up.
Actually, I 'm assuming the p ee
thing. But if my facts are wrong,
'Ms. Milo' should consider work
as a bearded lady.
A nd that concludes this f un
filled lambaste upon lambasting.
Don't forget to vote if you're
able.
There it is.
I just collected my civic duty
karma point for the day.

Dropping off the kids
Bathroom manners do count
BY POLLY
CHAROENKWANCHAI
Pride Staff Writer
Have
you
ever
"dropped off
the kids?"
Or made a
"deposit to
the b ank?"
Have
you
built any log cabins lately? Perhaps you aren't well versed in
bathroom euphemisms, but these
events usually occur because of
bad Chinese food or an unwise
choice to have ice cream and
Cheetos for lunch. Whatever the
case may be, people like me usually find it difficult to use public
bathrooms.
I am an occasional germaphobe
with performance anxiety. (Note
to self: Must sanitize hands with
anti-bacterial soap a fter using the
computer lab.)
Due to my heightened fear of
dirt and all things dirty, I take the
necessary precautions to ensure
that my adventures in the public
restrooms are as clean and safe as
possible. Yes, I admit it: I triple
seat for maximum coverage. I am
confident with the idea that no
germs are penetrating through
the fortress of seat covers so that I
am allowed to do my duty (no pun
intended) with peace of mind. I do
provide one warning when dealing with multiple covers: It takes
more than one flush to get those
suckers down. This might cause
your fellow bathroom enthusiasts
to wonder why you've flushed so
many times and what you ate to
create such a flurry of flushes.
The automatic toilets we have
on campus are terrific for people
like me, if they only served to
work when we needed them to.
For instance, it is unpleasant
to be the victim of a "drive-by
flushing." This type of crime i s
committed when the bathroom
patron is not quite done with
business, but becomes momen-

covers
tarily disrupted by automatic
and unwanted flushing. There is
also the "delayed flushing" which
occurs when the patron waits for
10 seconds or more before the
toilet realizes that it must now
dispose its contents. I suggest
people use this time to reflect.
These events must not be misconstrued with the "random flushing." This happens when there
are many people in the restroom
(perhaps people who will recognize you later in the day). As
the name suggests, many people
produce a random and spontaneous flush in order to distract other
people from any turbulent sounds
coming f rom your direction. This
is detectable when the number of
flushes being produced is higher
than the amount of people in the
bathroom.
Lastly, there is the "conditional flushing." This takes the
most amount of mental commitment and is not recommended for
emergency situations. The conditional flushes are based on the
experiments of Pavlov and his
salivating dogs. It requires that
you do your business in sync with
other flushing toilets as to mask
the thunderous noise you have
produced. This move takes careful planning and coordination by
listening for the sound of people
entering the restroom as well as
timing your "main event."
These techniques apply under
the assumption that y our "kids"
are going to be loud, if you catch
what I mean. They also imply
that you are suffering f rom
stage fright. For people who
are hounded by this everyday
dilemma, I suggest that you:
1. Change your diet
2. Learn which bathrooms
carry the least traffic flow (hint:
there's one that's virtually unused
in the
ACD building)
3. Accept that Mother Nature is
a loud force of wind (last of the
puns) that's just meant to be
heard.
If all else fails, just prairie-dog
it.

T HE PRIDE
Dear Editor,
I 'm writing this
letter to let my fellow
students know about a
bad experience I had at
a College Republicans/
Progressive Activists
Network screening of
the last presidential
debate. After the debate
a pre-chosen panel of six
student speakers from
both sides (republicans
and democrats/liberals)
were allowed four minutes
each to speak about what
they thought about the
performance of their
particular candidate. As
each student took his/
her turn, one republican
mentioned that he was
disappointed that the
audience turn out wasn't
as good as they had hoped.
There were about 20
students in the audience
and many were friends
or club members of the
student panel. After all of
the panel members finished
their time to speak, the
discussion was opened
to the audience. After
the first topic was ended,
I brought up a topic that
is very important to me.
I directed my question
to the republican panel
members. As I was
exchanging ideas with one
panel member, another
member was huffing and
puffing, shaking his head
in disagreement, and even
decided to laugh at me
while I was talking. He
then took the microphone
and began voicing his
ideas. As the discussion
continued, I mentioned
reading some information
from a book required
for my Mass Media and
Society class with Professor
FrediAvalos. This panel
member arrogantly stated
that the book was written
by communist and that it
should be ignored. After
he mentioned that, his
College Republican friends
began attacking the book
also. The republicans then
began attacking my ideas
in a four-on-one fashion.
I had also mentioned that
the arrogant panel member
should tell Professor
Avalos that the book was
written by communist and
he arrogantly replied that
he would tell her. One of
his republican friends had
also mentioned that the
book had no references,
which is completely false
(I will be glad to provide
the book information to
anyone interested). After
a few more minutes of
republicans against me, the
mediator inteijected and
stated that we should not
discuss one issue for too
long and also corrected the
arrogant panel member as
he made false accusations
during his speaking on the
issue. It turns out that he
didn't know as much about
the topic as he thought he
did! I was so surprised
that my thoughts and
ideas on that topic were
treated so aggressively. I
always assumed that in
a democracy it is vital
to exchange ideas in a
respectful manner. In
order to understand the
issues we must hear both
sides and it seems to me
that the republicans are
only interested in their
side. How an arrogant,
self righteous student
was chosen for a panel is
beyond me. Not to mention
that I am sure that I will
never attend any forums
by these groups ever again.
I think that the reason so
few students attend these
meetings might be because
of the undemocratic
environment and I will be
sure to recommend NOT
going to these forums
for that reason. I would
like to say that the other
panel members did a good
job and did treat me with
respect. But it only takes
a few to ruin the fun. I am
in no way angry at anyone
for not agreeing with me.
It's when people begin
talking down to me that the
problem arises. So students
beware, if you don't agree
with the norm at one of
these functions, you may
be in for a "republicans vs.
you" battle?!
Claude Sayf
Senior, Communications
Major
Letter to the Editor:
This week students will
vote on a referendum
concerning the Early
Learning Center (ELC), the
childcare facility owned
by our student government
(ASI). So far, the ASI
has supplied one-sided
information for funding
concerning the issue.
Student leaders have not
presented their constituents
with the data necessary for
making sound decisions
on this important issue.
We see posters hanging
prominently in ASI office
windows and prominent
displays occupying the
center tables at the Dome
with sales pitches for
funding the center.
Why don't student
government leaders present
honest information? Over
the years, the student body
has subsidized the ELC
with losses totaling about
a million dollars (Student
leaders have never released
exact figures). Now we're
being asked to increase our
student fees by $10 to make
up for projected shortages.
That adds up to over
$140,000 annually.
The ASI's and The Pride
both championed Michael
Moore's recent appearance
as a victory of free speech.
But Moore's message was
more than just to speak
freely—it was to question
that which doesn't make
sense. Yet The Pride ran a
story stating that the ELC
would make 97 % of its
costs through sources other
than student fees. What is
the ELC's total operating
budget if the student body's
$140,000 is only 3% of its
funding?
I am not arguing
against childcare, I am
arguing against our
student government
representatives' failure
to keep their constituents
informed. The 48
students who benefit from
subsidized childcare every
semester are certainly
deserving, but their
fellow students are just as
deserving and at the very
least, we deserve the right
to be properly informed
about voting issues. It's
conceivable that one of
us might come up with an
alternative to the ASI's
current all or nothing
proposal.

Graduate Student
Dear Editor,
I 'm sure you all know but
in case you don't October
18th-21st are the dates
for the voting for the
Childcare Services Fee
Referendum to keep the
Early Learning Center
open. The Early Learning
Center is CSUSM's answer
for childcare for student
parents.
I know there are many of
you out there who would
like to vote no because
you don't want to pay for
something you are not
going to use. I understand
that, however many of us
pay for fees here we don't
use, books we don't read,
a parking structure we
will never see. This ten
dollars is at least going
to a humanitarian cause:
the education of children.
The Early Learning Center
enables many parents the
ability to continue their
education to provide a
better life for their children,
provides childcare to
CSUSM faculty & the
community, as well as
provides internships,
employment opportunities
and more. It is a wonderful
program. As you could
guess, I am a student
parent; my daughter
Madison age three has
attended the "school" as
she calls it, for a little over
a year and she loves it. In
that time, she has become
potty trained, learned to
ride a tricycle, can count
to twenty, is recognizing
numbers, is learning to
write her name, and is
learning valuable social
skills. She would have met
these milestones eventually
but I know that they have
been met sooner and with
more understanding with
the love and support of
the ELC staff behind her. I
really hope students realize
that this is not about ten
more little dollars (it's only
two or three Starbucks©),
but it's about the big
picture and as^cheesy as it
sounds, children are our
future.
The children who attend
the center might be only
between the ages of 2
and 5 but they still care
about their school. If the
vote doesn't pass the ELC
will be forced to close its
doors. How awful would
that be for this to be these
children's first educational
experience; a school they
have been so comfortable
in and have grown to
love being closed because
CSUSM couldn't fit it in
their budget. Please do
the right thing for these
children, please protect
their school, please protect
their teacher's jobs, please
vote yes and encourage
others to do so.

�M O S D e f : The New Danger
BY JASON ENCABO "TheNew Danger"
Pride Staff Writer
is now among u s and
Mos Def is most
definitely bringing
something new t o
the table. Maintaining his success as a
rapper/actor, Mos
Def has been featured in numerous films ("Italian Job"),
music videos (Alicia Keys — "You Don't
Know My Name") and of course songs
(Kanye West - "Two Words"), leaving fans
without a solo album since his 2002 release
of "Black On Both Sides." Mos Def now
re-enters the hip hop scene with a highly
anticipated new album.
Throughout "The New Danger," Mos Def
experiments with a mixture of elements of
rock, soul and certainly hip hop. He combines these elements to deliver the tradi-
What
Ü
tional Mos Def style, along with a new sense
of maturity. He often breaks the conventional pattern of verses and choruses placed
throughout a song and formulates a songstructure of his own. I had trouble determining if some songs were actually songs,
or if they were j ust long instrumentals or
interludes. But after listening to the album
in its entirety, I couldn't help but love it.
"The New Danger" provides a very diverse
assortment of songs, satisfying listeners of
many genres. This album also thoroughly
addresses the live aspect of music, bringing together a sound resembling artists like
The Roots and Rage Against The Machine,
all while maintaining the true sound of hip
hop. Mos Def produced the album with
help f rom Kanye West and several others
to resemble various styles of music. "The
New Danger" is for the open-minded, I definitely recommend it.

�I'm glad these guys are on my team
South Park
creators Matt
Stone and Trey
Parker take
on the world
with puppets
instead of
paper cutouts or
cartoons
BY PHOENIX LINDGREN
Pride Staff Writer
Sex, violence, foul language...
these aren't your parents' puppets.
The South Park guys, Trey
Parker and Matt Stone, bring us
another sterling piece of social
satire, this time cloaked in vomit.
"Team America: World Police"
is not for the faint of heart (or
mind), but is for anyone interested in broadening their world
view beyond that of "socialist
weasel" Michael Moore (hey,
I'm just quoting the film here,
don't get your thong in a bunch
and start firing off emails to the
ombudsman). But more to the
point, this film is for anyone
who pees their pants at watching gratuitous puppet vomiting,
gratuitous violence by puppets
on puppets, puppets speaking
fake Arabic that sounds like your
8year old nephew talking gibberish and a puppet sex scene
that will send you rolling in the
aisle (while peeing your pants)
if you ever participated in that
quintessentially American childhood experience of manipulating Barbie and G. I. Joe to make
sweet sweet love.
"Team America: World Police"
is about a super-patriotic, elite
group of American crime-fight-

ers who chase down and wipe
out terrorists all over the globe.
Parker and Stone's political leaning should be apparent from
their treatment of Moore and
Film Actors Guild members
Alec Baldwin, Susan Sarandon,
Martin Sheen, Sean Penn, et al.,
(just in case you missed Parker
and Stone's 2001 sitcom "That's
My Bush!"), but as usual they
don't let our side of the aisle off
the hook, either: Team America
goes after it's objectives without a
twinge of remorse over collateral
damage (though trust me, you'll
be laughing at that, too), and the
voice of I.N.T.E.L.L.I.G.E.N.C.E.
- a supercomputer that provides
the team its information - is provided by none other than multiple-personality radio comedian
Phil Hendrie (KFI-AM 640,
weeknights 7-10 p.m., if you're
not in oirthe joke, you're part of
it, so listen in sometime).
The choice to use puppets is
brilliant: you can do things with
a puppet (or more properly, a
marionette) that just wouldn't
work with the flat paper characters of South Park (though in
an odd twist of fate, the puppets
can't seem to walk any better

than Kyle or Stan). If you forced
me to find fault with this genius
piece of work, I would probably
pick on the soundtrack: I played
the "South Park: Bigger, Longer,
Uncut" soundtrack in my car
for at least a year after that film
debuted, and my friends and I
still break out in a nice rendition
of "Uncle F**ka," "Kyle's Mom's
a B**ch," or "It's
Easy, MMMkay"
every now and
then.
Theatergoers left this film
singing the anthem
"America, F**k Yeah,"
and the soundtrack definitely works, but "Team

no musical (and I loves a good
musical).
Parker and Stone
have said they aren't
out to influence
the election, but
I still think you
should run don't
walk to your local
Cineplex and see
this film before
you vote (just be
sure to check your sensitivity and
political correctness at the door).
After all we are what we are. God
bless America. F**k yeah!

Problems
at IIVA
BY AMANDA JOHNSON
Pride Staff Writer
False alarms, mold, and flooding are a few of the problems the
University Village Apartment
(UVA) residents have faced since
student housing opened last year.
Fire alarms, located in each
apartment near the stove and
restroom, have been the major
disturbance at the UVA. There
have been 65 false alarms since
the beginning of the semester.
"The fire alarms are sensitive,
they have to be, to avoid fires,"
said Brian Dawson, director of
UVA. "They go off more frequently in the beginning of the
year as students have to understand where the sensitivity level
is at."
The maj ority of false alarms on
campus are from cooking. Only
two false alarms this semester
are from something else, one
from steam and one from a blow
dryer.
"The first day I moved in I
made pizza and it set off the
alarm," said resident Robert
Bothmer. "Since then every time
I cook it seems they go off, but I
gotta eat."
Every time an alarm goes off a
police officer is sent to make sure
there isn't a fire and the Resident
Assistant (RA) on call goes to

ASI, Moore decide
to halt ticket sales
to community to
avoid early sellout
BY LINDSAY RIEDEL
Pride Staff Writer
Michael Moore's scheduled
tour stop at the Del Mar Fairgrounds on October 12 has created such an overwhelming
demand for tickets that sales to
non-students have been discontinued until October 7.
Since Wednesday, September
29, distribution of tickets has
been reserved for students, and
each student is allowed only his
or her one free ticket. Any addiJional ticket purchases must be
done when regular ticket sales
resume on Thursday, October 7
at 8:30 a.m.
On the morning of September 29, it was agreed between
Moore's representatives and ASI
that priority would be given to
students in regards to the distribution of tickets.
According to Manal Yamout,
president of ASI, this decision is
due to the fact that on the first day
of sales, 4,000 out of a total of
10,000 tickets were distributed,
and a large majority of those tickets were sold to the community.
ASI and Moore representatives
felt it was necessary to give students priority in the ticket sales
to make sure all students have the
opportunity to get a ticket before
the supply runs out. The tickets
are not limited to CSUSM students but are available to all students with valid identification.
The decision to hold off all sales
has sparked unrest with community members who were told
tickets would be available as of
Tuesday, September 28. Because

"it isn't a direct relationship."
As a growing campus, class availability is
an issue for students. The new business building will not necessarily help with the increase
in number of classes for business major students, but it will provide more space.

lack of organization immediately
following this decision, the new
policy frustrated potential ticketbuyers.
Professor John Halcon waited
in line for 45 minutes before he
was told that tickets were reserved
for students only.
"There was a sign on the
window but no sign toward the
end of the line. You aren't going
to walk up to the window, then
go to the back of the line," said
Halcon. " I'm irritated, not mad;
I don't know if I'm going to go
now, I don't know if I'll be able
to get in line next week when
they're ready to sell to people."
Shortly after Halcon reported
his experience, ASI displayed
signs at the end of the line.
By creating a time period for
only students to receive tickets,
students are not able to purchase
tickets for family and friends at
the same time.
"I feel it's an unfortunate turn
of events," said John Gehris,
executive vice president of ASI.
"People called yesterday and I
told them to come buy tickets
tomorrow and I feel bad because
it wasn't wrong information then,
but it is n ow"

Concerning Moore's appearance, there are mixed feelings,
but most students are passionate
in their position on the subject.
"I've been raised as a Democrat,
I've read his books and seen his
movies," said Emily Broedling,
senior communications major. "I
know he's one-sided but it's good
to hear that side because you usually only hear the other side,"
Tenzin Peling, first year liberal studies major, also describes
herself as a supporter of Michael
Moore.
"He's voicing his opinion and
that's his right. He's just trying to
open people's eyes," said Peling.
"Everyone will be biased no
matter what; I know it's his opinion and I can either agree or disagree."
Second year student Bryan
Davis feels differently on the
subject.
"Everything (Moore) says is
unbalanced and he takes everything to an extreme," said Davis.
" I'm not supporting him. I feel
he's a threat to national security
by trashing our president."
Mark Wilson, first year business major, feels Moore is deceitful.
"He's trying to sell his view-
point by twisting the facts," said
Wilson.
A large majority of the cost
of Moore's appearance has been
covered by donations f rom the
community, businesses and individuals. One of the substantial
donations was made by the Herring Broadcast Company.
Chris Moore, director of programming for Herring Broadcast
Company (no relation to Michael
Moore), facilitated and supported
the decision for the donation
made by President of Herring
Broadcast Company, Robert Herring Sr.
"Young people should be

Chris Moore also said the decision to f und the speaker was not
influenced by political affiliation.
"Regardless who the speaker is,
as long as the speaker promotes
and provokes political discussion
and debate " said Chris Moore. "I
am a strong believer that apathy
is lethal in terms of the political process; I would encourage
anyone regardless of their political affiliation to be involved in
the political process."
The Herring Broadcast Company will be filming Michael
Moore's speech, and they will

students in the political process.
Camera crews can be expected

couple of weeks to film the documentary.

distribution, call the ASI front

said resident Seth Gretlien.
Some students have also
encountered problems with mold.
Several apartment residents have
found mold growing in their carpets, window seals and showers
and even in ceilings.
Olivia Roldan discovered her
mold problem when she noticed
a " funky smell." Caity Ries
found mold growing inside her
window seals. In both instances
they called the front desk and the
problem was fixed immediately.
"The majority o f mold problems come from the air conditioner. If residents leave it on
really low temperature for a long
time then it (the A/C unit) will
freeze," said Sonya Maestas, an
RA. "When it starts to thaw out it
drips and can cause mold."
"But if someone calls about
mold, we (RA's) call maintenance and they fix it right away,"
said Maestas.
Cassie Johnson had a different
problem. She went into her bathroom and noticed the light above
was dripping and a large puddle
covered the floor. The shower in
the unit above had leaked and
flooded her bathroom below. She
called the front desk.
"They came right away and
cut out a part of the ceiling and
replaced it with plaster," said
Johnson.

Stoned, again
THE PRIDE
BY SCOTT PHILLIPS
Pride Staff Writer
When it hits your lips, it tastes
so good. If you're a beer enthusiast then you definitely recognize
the difference between quality beers and stank beer. Stone
Chief Executive Greg Koch and
co-founder/brewmaster Steve
Wagner set out seven years ago
to produce beers with character
that could be enjoyed by all.
"The first year and a half, Stone
Brewery was seeing substantial
losses," said Koch. "It's hard to
know if you're making a mistake
by continuing production." Yet,
Greg and Steve had a vision and
the guts to push forth with production, even when things were
looking down.
Another aspect of the stone culture is the representation of gargoyles. "All of our beers feature
a gargoyle on the bottle because
they symbolize the big character
of our beers," said Koch.
Two of the largest user-based
rating websites ratebeer.com and
beeradvoate.com have both rated
Stone Brewery as the number one
American brewery out of 3400
breweries.
Stone really put their name on
the map when they first released
Arrogant Bastard Ale (7.2% Ale/
Vol) in November of 1997. Other
beers that have received much
acclaim are Stone Ruination IPA
(7.7% Ale/Vol), Stone Lévitation
Ale (4.4% Ale/Vol) and Stone
IPA (7.7% Ale/Vol).

regular season
is over and the
Padres narrowly missed
the playoffs.
Going into
this inaugural
season in the
new Petco Park
most Padres fans were expecting a winning season, including
me. If you save all my previous
columns like I know you do then
you can go through your scrapbook all the way back to a previous Jock Talk that came out on
March 16, 2004 where I wrote,
"San Diego baseball fans are
more hopeful than usual for the
start of the 2004 season.. .fans
also expect a winning team after
five long years of losing."
The Padres turned my hopes
into a reality by producing their
first winning season since 1998,
but as great as this season was it
still ended up being a disappointment and I am part to blame.
I went to 10 Padres games this
year and not once did they send
me home a happy Padres fan,
losing all 10 games while I was in
attendance.
With the Padres narrowly
missing the playoffs I can't help
but realize the amazing coincidence that the Padres did not win
while I was in attendance. But,
was it just a coincidence or was
I a jinx?
I have never thought much
of jinxes or curses. That is just
something that ball players
believe in like stepping on the
chalk lines will affect the way
you pitch or that a Billy goat is
the reason why the Cubs haven't
won a world series since 1908.

a jinx when I saw them lose on
the first Sunday of the season
to a great team like the Giants.
Nor did I think anything of it
when they lost on the first Friday
night home game against one of
the best pitchers in the league in
Randy Johnson.
I started to get concerned
around mid June when they lost
to the lowly Devil Rays. Then on
July 9 the Padres reliable closer
Trevor Hoffman blew a save
versus the unassuming Colorado
Rockies. The final straw for me
came on the first of August when
the Dodgers came from behind in
12 innings to beat the Padres.

Resurrecting "The Birth
BY ALFRED CHU
of a Nation"
Pride Staff Writer
Director D.W. Griffith's "The Birth
of a Nation" has been resurrected and is
now for sale at chain electronic stores.
Released in 1915, the silent film accounts
the friendship between a northern family,
the Stonemans, and a southern family, the
Cameron's during pre/post Civil War era,
President Lincoln's assassination and the
rise of the Ku Klux Klan (KKK).
I used the term "resurrected" for three
reasons. First, it was made before Hollywood existed, and now it's been released
on DVD. Second, we see first hand of the
roots of filmmaking. And thirdly, it's possibly the first film to use political ideals
onscreen.
I admit this was the first silent picture
film I've seen. But we've all heard the
phrase "A picture if worth a thousand
words." And f rom these pictures, anyone
can learn Griffith's own prejudices and the
racism during thefilmand the controversy
that sparked after the film.
As a movie critic, this is one o fthe rare I don't know why anybody, including
occasions that the plot is not important in Griffith, would want any part of this film,
a critique. It's what symbolized, portrayed Maybe they thought they could tell a story

Don't rock the VOTE
BY MICHELLE ROBINSON
for The Pride
It's obscene. The liars are
everywhere on campus. I know
this because I'm one of them.
Disgusted with myself, I nod
when people ask me if I'm going
to vote. "Hell, yes!" I say as I
scurry in the direction of my
class. Yet I know I won't.
The funny thing is, I take a
sick pride in knowing that I am
not alone. On this campus, I have
run into likeminded folks who
smile at the student protests, get
loud at the indecencies of government, perhaps shake a fist in the
air saying, "Fees, fees we can't
pay these!" You know who you
are. We are the ones who silently
stand by and listen very carefully
until we make eye contact. Then
we out each other, carefully so
as not to make a scene, though.
I can feel it now, the comfort of
the knowing stare and smile that
says, "Yes, friend, you may seek
refuge with me and the other
big-talking-no-voting villagers."
Please don't mistake my tone
for pride. I hate the fact that the
gumption I have for voting dissipates as soon as I park my car
in the dirt and walk up that jerk
of a sidewalk. Lazy? So what. As
available as registering is, I have
never even come close to "locking the vote."
Some students have legitimate
reasons. Tomy Gysi, a Literature and Writing senior, who is
in fact registered to vote, doesn't

lunch table because he has actually heard from both sides, taken
it all in, and has come to a well
informed conclusion. Good man.
Joe Inixienginai, a Business
major, simply feels that choosing is losing since it would be the
"Same old, same old." More my
style.
My favorite voter immunity
is Liberal Arts student Alanna
Colepietro who lashes out, " I'm
Canadian." These are just three
non-voting students I have come
across. Where's our protest
against voting in general? Why
should we be ashamed or hide in
the darkest corners of Craven?
Where's our red, white and blue
bumper stickers that say, "Don't
blame me, I voted for m e!" While
I truly do understand the history
making election that is upon us, I
can't seem to muster up and sustain the urgency to vote. I'm busy
avoiding the credit card people.
I'm busy picking up dog poop. I'm
watching the heavy rotation of
the MTV Music Awards. Simply
put, if Andre 3000 dressed in his
political best can't get me to vote,
I doubt anything can.

No day like today
BY CHRISSY BALDWIN
Pride Staff Writer
The Broadway musical, RENT,
is about young people, such as
ourselves, who are faced with all
the difficulties and hardships that
come with just starting out in life.
How do we stay true to ourselves
against the trials and tribulations
of the world and still be able to
make rent each month?
RENT, the musical, is about a
group of young friends living in
New York City (the center of the
world), and how they deal with
relationships, AIDS, death and
the inability to make the monthly
rent.
There are eight main characters. (Try to keep up) Benny,
former roommate of Roger and
Mark who now owns the building they live in and is demanding rent for a full year. Mark, a
young filmmaker, who lives with
Roger and used to date Maureen. Roger, HIV positive musician, who lives with Mark and is
in love with Mimi. Mimi, HIV
positive exotic dancer with a
drug habit. Collins, best friend
to Roger and Mark, falls in love
- with Angel. Angel, HIV positive
drag queen. Maureen, performance artist that dumped Mark
for Joanne. Joanne, a recent
law school graduate, now dating
Maureen.
The story is told through
music, song and dance. From the
moment Roger and Mark took
the stage, the audience roared
with applause and cheers, and not
a word had been spoken. Mark
opens the scene, the band starts
playing, Mark begins to sing and
it feels like you're at a rock concert.
The songs are infectiously
optimistic, even though they tell
the tale of heartbreak, struggle
and death. The underlying theme
throughout the play was sung in
"No day like today". Even though
the characters battle the hardships of disease, destitution and
death of loved ones, the message
is that there is only today because
tomorrow is not guaranteed. We
can't live our lives feeling sorrow
or regret, we need to focus on
what we do have right now and
do the best we can with it.
- In the beginning of the second
act, the entire cast sings in
unison: "Five hundred twentyfive thousand, six hundred minutes. . .how do you measure a life
in a year?" RENT takes the audience through a year in the lives
of the main characters. In that
year, relationships flourish and
fade. They each have a personal
struggle to connect with each
other and with themselves.
The entire production is a
moving illustration of the trials
w e face as young adults living
in America. We are all trying
to find our place in this world,
but it is especially hard when, as
the cast sings, "you are what you
own". If you don't own anything,
does that mean you are nothing?
RENT inspires hope that our
materialistic society will change
and what should matter, will
matter. The message is that only
love matters and it is what we do
with the love we are given and the
love we have to give that makes
us who we are.
Since its debut on Broadway in
1996, RENT has earned a Pulitzer Prize and 12 Tony Awards. It
is definitely a play for all to see
and experience.
RENT was written and composed by Jonathan Larson, he
died days after its first opening
night, but his story still lives on.

the Arts, Escondido.
The Pride contacted President Haynes for an interview
regarding the decision to cancel
Michael Moore. Rick Moore,
Director of Communications,
contacted The Pride on President
Haynes' behalf.
Rick Moore explained that
the University is not looking for
any one person to balance out
Michael Moore.
In response to the question of
why Michael Moore was deemed
an appropriate speaker last October and now he is not, Rick Moore
said, "Last year there wasn't an
election and he (Michael Moore)
had not politicized himself. Now
we have the election coming up
and there is no time to balance
out the point of view. The election is the key difference here
and Michael Moore's decision to
politicize himself."

SmartPay™ state that the "service charge" is assessed to cover
IDC's costs, but declined to say
specifically what all the costs
are.
Many students on campus are
unhappy with being charged
this fee when paying for classes
online. Senior Matt Taylor said,
"I was frustrated with the additional fee when I found out that
this cost saving feature for the
university was at my expense."
Taylor also said that he contacted
Jonathan Poullard, dean of student affairs, asked the BOD to
allocate $10,000 to bring film
maker, Michael Moore, back to
CSUSM.
Poullard explained at the meeting that Michael Moore was a
scheduled speaker in the Arts
and Lectures Series last October;
however, the event was cancelled
due to the Cedars Fire. Now
Moore is available to reschedule
the event for October 13 or 14.
After discussion from all ASI
directors, the board voted to contribute $6,500 to fund Moore's
speaker fee.
Poullard said, "I am saddened
and disappointed by the decision.
I think our students are missing
out on a phenomenal opportunity
to engage in political discourse.
The Intercultural Speaker Series
is not about having us agree, it's
about having the discourse and
having controversy with civility."
Merryl Goldberg, Professor
of Visual and Performing Arts
and Director of Arts & Lecture
series said, "Personally I'm quite
disappointed. I think it would
have been a great opportunity
for the students. On the other
hand, I understand how it could
be a challenge for the president
and other top administrators. It
is very tough. I wouldn't have
wanted to be the president on
this."
Lura Poggi, Executive Director of ASI said, "I think, although
Michael Moore has partisan
beliefs, that ultimately what
would have happened is he would
have motivated our students to
get involved in the electoral process by getting out to vote. I trust
students to vote their conscious
regardless of what belief structure is presented to them. And
while I appreciate having a balance of perspectives, I trust our
university community to engage
in meaningful dialogue; that will
not only provide a balancing perspective, but also encourage our
community members to, individually, decide for themselves their
core values and political beliefs."
Francine Martinez, Vice
President for Student Affairs
explained that the decision was
discussed Monday morning
among the executive council,
which includes all vice presidents, the Provost and Marti
Gray, Executive Director of
CSUSM Foundation.
Martinez explained that the
council was unable to provide a
counterpart to Michael Moore
and that if they could secure the
right people to provide a balance
they will pull something together
for the spring.
Marti Gray, Executive Director
of CSUSM Foundation said, "I
think everyone (in the executive
council) was in total agreement
that the campus had not been
able to confirm any other speakers that could provide a balance."
"I don't think it is right for the
president to limit the students'
access to the speakers we have,"
said Christopher Langfelder,
freshman, biology major.
Student Financial Services about
the charge via the internet, but
never got any response.
According to Student Financial
Services, the "service charge"
did not begin until 2002 when the
Campus Level Cabinet decided
to contract Informed Decisions
of Alameda California to install
CASHNet SmartPay™ on the
CSUSM website. Convenience
and financial savings for the
school were cited as primary reasons for contracting with IDC.
Paul Tiglio, from the Department of Financial Services said
that the money saved by the university because of IDC CASHNet SmartPay™ goes directly
to campus life programs and
campus security. Mr. Tiglio was
apt to point out that the university
allows students to pay in many
ways, and that IDC CASHNet
SmartPay™ is only one option.
When asked about student complaints regarding IDC CASHNet SmartPay™, he admitted
that there were complaints but
declined to comment on specific
cases.
In addition to imposing a
"service charge" IDC CASHNet SmartPay™ does not accept
payments using a VISA card.
Accepted methods of payment
include Mastercard™, Discover™, American Express™ and
E-check. Debit cards can only be
used if they do not require a PIN.
Many debit cards have a daily
maximum of $500 or less, so they
may not have sufficient funds
available to pay for tuition fees
using IDC CASHNet SmartPay.
Senior Vice President of Sales
for IDC, Randy Steyer, was
also asked how many Student concerns were addressed
by Informed Decisions to the
issue of the CASHNet Smartpay™ "service charge". Styer
responded "that is something we
don't reveal"

�Price of birth control pills on the rise
BY SARAH COLESON
Pride Staff Writer
Instead of

with imitatorsy
Health Services
is charging
nearly the same
amount for

For all the young women who
fill their birth control prescriptions at the Student Health Services pharmacy: be prepared to
begin paying twice as much for
your birth control pills.
Don't count your blessings
quite yet gentlemen; this issue
could also affect you. The rising
cost of oral contraceptives could
have devastating effects on the
ability of the Student Health Services pharmacy to provide low
cost prescriptions to all Cal State
San Marcos students. While it

who use the pharmacy tofillbirth

control prescriptions and without cheaper alternatives, thus taking

As we make the transition into
Pride Staff Writer
a new school year, it's important
to remember that school is not
just about classes and homework;
it is also about making an identity, having fun, and forming
friendships. The best way to get
the most from your college experience is to get involved, and with
more than 45 clubs and student
organizations on campus, there is
bound to be at least one tofityour
goals and personality style.
On September 7-9*, the Student Organization Expo featured several different clubs and
student organizations in front of
the Kellogg library, including
the Human Development Club,
Christ on Campus, and Priority
Christian Challenge.
The Human Development Club
was formed to bring together
people with a common interest
in human services. Because the
Human Development major was
becoming so research-based, the
club was formed to offer a place
for people to express their interest in community-benefiting programs and a place to explore the
different careers that a Human
Development degree would
offer.
Members meet twice a month:
once for a general meeting where
they talk, discuss events, and vote
on allocating funds, and a second
time for the event of the month.
The events consist of either a
lecture series, guest speakers,
or some form of volunteer work
for the community. In the past,
the Human Development Club
has participated in events like
the MS walk. "We're humanitarians," said a smiling Dayleen
Coleman, president of the Human
Development Club.
Although the Human Development Club does not exclude
anyone from being a member,
they allow only a human development major or minor to run
for office.
Formerly known as Episcopal Campus Mission, Christ on
Campus is a first-year revised
club that is funded by the Episcopal Church of San Diego. The
Christ on Campus Club aims to
give students a place to meet new
people, a place to belong, and,
as their motto states, "a place
to know Christ and make Him
known."
Founder and youth pastor at
Grace Episcopal Church in San
cation will no longer be able to do
so at such a low cost.
This problem is not just occurring at our campus. The cost of
prescription drugs are increasing throughout the country, and
without necessary action, they
will continue to do so. Piling the
rising costs of prescriptions on
top of the skyrocketing costs of
rent in San Diego and tuition in
California could have extremely
negative consequences on Cal
State students.
According to Dr. Karen Nicholson, the medical director of Cal
State San Marcos, and Joe Jacob,
CSUSM pharmacist explained
that the California State University system has a contract with
pharmaceutical companies to
ensure that students receive certain patented oral contraceptives
at an extremely low cost. Nearly
all of the contraceptives included
in the contract are no longer patented, which basically means
that anyone can create generic
drugs which are almost exactly
the same as the name brands.
Instead of reducing the cost of
name brand drugs to compete
with imitators, they are charging nearly the same amount as
the generic drugs cost - which is
also rising..
All Cal State students are
required to pay a student health
services fee as well as a student
health facility fee. In March
2004, Student Health Services
promoted and passed a referendum that allowed the health services fee to increase from $35 a
semester to $50 and the health
facility fee to go from $3 to $25.
Many people have a tendency to
make the incorrect assumption
that these fees will help to prevent other cost increases, such as
the rising cost of birth control.
To the contrary, Nicholson
said, "the health facility fee is
only applied towards the cost
to rent the facility, which is not
owned by Cal State San Marcos,
and the utility bills. The health
services fee is applied towards
funding staff salaries and the
maintaining the operation of the
services provided. Neither have
anything to do with maintaining the low cost of prescription
drugs."
Jacob also explained that the
State Procurement Officer has
been attempting to negotiate with
the pharmaceutical companies to
fight the increasing costs. If he
is successful, it may be possible
for the pharmacy to offer other
brands of oral contraceptives,
either low cost generic brands or
alternate brands of birth control
that are still patented. While this
issue will most likely be a long
and complicated process, Jacob
stated optimistically that, "At
least the pharmaceutical companies are willing to listen to him."

Gibbons. "College students need

Priority Christian Challenge is
a Bible-based club that emphasizes developing a strong individual Christian faith in a social
environment.
Ruth Bran, outside advisor and
co-founder, felt the club was necessary because it empowers stu-
dents with knowledge and faith,
and gives them a place to get to
know fellow Christians.
The members get together
every Thursday evening at Arts

to come together, interact,
form friendships, and pray. The
agenda also includes participating in humanitarian events,
such as Operation Christmas

Jock Talk With
Josh
BY JOSHUA SANDOVAL
Pride Staff Writer
Think for just a moment about
all the things that have changed
in your life over the past five
years. I mean most of you probably went to a different school,
had a different job, or fashioned
a different hair dofiveyears ago.
Basically, not much stays consistent overfiveyears.
However, one person who has
been consistent over the past five
years has been Tiger Woods. "El
Tigre" was the number one golfer
in the world for the pastfiveyears
which is 264 consecutive weeks
which is also 1848 days.
However, everything in life
eventually comes to an end and
Tiger's streak is no exception.
His rule as number one player
in the world came to an end last
week when Vijay Singh claimed
the spot that Tiger had kept warm
for so long.
Growing up you work towards
being the best at what you do no
matter whatfieldyou are working
in. Once you reach the pedestal
of number one what else is there
for you to accomplish? The only
thing left for you to prove is that
you have staying power and no
one has had more staying power
in sports than Tiger Woods.
Tiger is the most recognizable person in sports. Even
people who know absolutely
nothing about sports know who
Tiger is. Tiger is now among the
few in our society who can be
referred to just by one name like
Madonna, Cher, and Prince.
Golf is the hardest sport to
dominate in, because it is an
individual sport. In team sports
like baseball and football you can
rely on your teammates if you are
having a bad day at the park. In
golf, if you are having a bad day
on the course you have no one to
blame but yourself.
Now I want you to think about
all the bad days you have had in
the pastfiveyears. If you are like
most people, you don't always
have a great day everyday of the
week. So, when you look at the
fact that Tiger has not had a bad
day in five years it is just simply
amazing.
It is not like Tiger is past his
prime so Tiger losing his number
one ranking has many people
questioning what led to this.
Well there are several things that
could have led to this, one thing
being that he has had some nagging injuries over the past couple
years especially to his knee which
is one of the most important body
parts to a golfer. Another thing
that many people believe is that
since Tiger fell in love with his
fiance his golf game has gone
down hill. Also, some think that
his new golf equipment has just
been inferior to that of what the
other golfers are using.
Who knows if it was any of
those circumstances? However,
the thing that makes Tiger that
much better in my eyes is that
he did not use one of those as an
excuse. I tnean, how many of you
have tried to pass the blame when
you could not explain what went
wrong in a certain situation?
I for one fear for the golfing
community because not having towards again. The last time
Tiger in that number one spot Tiger had something to prove
means he has something to work he ended up becoming the most

�You got Visa? You got no classes
BY KARLENE WIEGAND
Pride Staff Writer
Students frustrated by our
school's registration system is not
a new phenomenon. As the new
semester starts many students
will cry "the registration woes,"
especially new students who are
unfamiliar with our registration
process.
The unique part about our registration system here at Cal State
San Marcos is the fact that we
don't accept Visa, a commonly
used credit card used by CSUSM
students. The reasons we don't
accept Visa has something to do
with a nation wide lawsuit, due
to high merchant fees of up to
$600,000 charged to Colorado
State University for example.
Merchant fees are what credit
card companies charge the user,
like Ralphs grocery store, or, in
the case of Cal State San Marcos,
to use their credit cards like
Visa. The entire state university
system in California and other
nation wide state schools including Indiana, Colorado and Texas
are facing these same fees. Many
state schools aré now opting to
charge students a convenience
fee for using credit cards to pay
for tuition rather than paying the
high merchant fees.
The CashNet SmartPay system
is a popular convenience charge
system, currently used at our
school and various schools
throughout California, Indiana,
Colorado and Texas.
I guess there is no way to
change the system because either
way we, the students of CSUSM
will be paying these merchant
fees.
However, it is of concern to me
why the cashiers' office won't tell
us why our Visa credit cards are
being turned away or why we
have to pay a convenience fee.
Last Spring was my first semester at Cal State San Marcos. I had
been using my Visa credit card
at Mira Costa College for the
previous three years. I would
pay for my books and my classes
and then send my grandmother
the bill in Las Vegas where she
lives.
The first time I registered here
was a nightmare. I had no clue student loans instead, which have
why my Visa was being shunned a much lower interest rate and

How to get YOUR
class started
BY PATRICIA GUEVARRA
Pride Staff Writer
So, the first two weeks of
school are finally over, yes!
Congratulations to all of you
who have survived. I know it
has been a fun ride just trying
to crash classes and having to
switch back to school mode. Just
imagine, 14 more weeks until it is
time for Winter Break. Exciting,
isn't it?
This is also the time when
we realize that there are a lot of
classes that are not being offered
due to budget cuts or are not even
offered because no one has ever
expressed a need for it. I am
pretty sure that there are a lot
of great classes that some of you
would like to have offered here or
classes that you do need. Here
are a couple of tips that can help
you get started.
First thing, you need to do is
research about this class, what
does it entail and who will benefit from this course? Then,
scout for other students and
even faculty members who view
the course as beneficial and are
willing to support your efforts in
starting this class. This way you
will have the power of numbers.
Make sure you do have a faculty
member who is supporting you
in order to have stronger ties to
administration.
Once you have a core group of
people involved, you can create
a petition stating the need for
this class and be sure to provide
why this class is important. You
can circulate this around campus
to gain support from the rest of
our school population. Be sure
to have a possible teacher in
mind for the class, you will of
course need a teacher. Also, you
can hold meetings with faculty
and administration in order to
express the dire need of this class
for the benefit of Cal State San
Marcos.
Mind you that this will be a
long process. You may not see
the class being offered during
your academic career but at least
you have gotten a movement
started so that other students can
benefit from this.
Regardless of the time factor,
you will be doing something
great for the campus.
I am writing this article based
on the experience of the Asian
Pacific American Association,
formerly known as the Asian
Pacific American Society. The
Association has been struggling
with the lack of Asian American
Studies classes on campus.
According to Fall 2003's
enrollment, there were a total
of 732 Asian American/Pacific
Islander students on campus,
9.4%. The third largest student
population and yet few classes
are offered pertaining to Asian
Studies and no classes in Asian
American Studies.
There are, however, several
history classes with subject matters of China, Japan, women in
the Middle East, and Eastern
thought, but what about the experience of the Asian American.
I offer these steps in case any
other student feels the need to
start some classes on campus as
well. There are other students
who will support you. The
campus is still new, take advantage of your ability to make a
difference.

A VIEW FROM BOTH SIDES
'A Stronger America' is what
democratic presidential candidate John Kerry's platform is all
about, and that is exactly why I
am voting for him.
A stronger America is needed
during these times when Americans seem to be divided by the
platform President Bush has been
pushing.
I am a Democrat because I
believe in equality for all Americans and the preservation of
our natural environment. I also
believe in fiscal responsibility,
smaller government, and a stronger military.
I am afirmbeliever in respect,
understanding and tolerance, and
Kerry is the only contender that
strongly believes in equality for
all Americans.
Kerry has adamantly stated
that he does not believe that a
constitutional amendment is necessary in order to 'preserve' the
'institution of marriage.' Kerry
believes the idea of marriage for
gays and lesbians should be left
up to the states. The Constitution
has never once been amended to
strip a minority group in America of their right to "life, liberty
and the pursuit of happiness."
Kerry also strongly believes
that there is more work to be
done to help the advancement of
minorities in our communities so
that they to can attain a higher
education, and advance further
in the work place.

�Enter the " Garden State" of mind

Pride Staff Writer
Once again, an actor steps into
the realm of writing and directing. Many may know him as Dr.
John 'J.D.' Dorian from the NBC
series "Scrubs," but nowadays
Zach Braff has a lot more on his
plate than acting.
Braff s film "Garden State,"
which he credited as writer,
director and starring in, has
gained support since it's initial
release in June. Picked up by
Miramax and Fox Searchlight
Pictures, the film is now on a
wide-scale release.
Thefilmbegins in Los Angeles
where Andrew Largeman (Braff)
is living as a struggling actor.

Pride Staff Writer
A debate was held last Tuesday
between the College Republicans
and the Progressive Activist Network (PAN) on the general topic
of homeland security vs. civil
liberties.
The debate took place in
Founders Plaza from 10a.m. to
lp.m.
Topics explored at the
debate included the war in Iraq
and the war on terrorism as well
as various other current political
and social issues.
PAN was represented by Lanysha Adams and Cheyenne Barr.
Ashley Stuart and Nick Bonomi
represented the positions of the
College Republicans.
The debate drew a crowd
pf some 45-50 students. The
debate became heated at times
as both sides sought to explain
their respective positions on
each issue. Some issues were
discussed as partisan positions
rather than responses to specific
questions. At times both groups
agreed in part on some of the
topics.
"I - really think we need a
regime change," said Barr, PAN
vice president of external affairs,
on the issue of who should be the
next president, "and that we need

enroll this fall. 15 class sections
are also being added to the fall
class schedule. Enrollment in
the additional courses is open
until Wednesday, September 22.
There is no petition required to
add these sections and no late
fees will be assessed.

controversial filmmaker Michael

several
reasons for the cancellation. In
the statement Haynes said, "The
proposed date, only a few weeks
away, does not allow time to
identify and secure a speaker of
comparable significance who can
provide a balancing perspective
during this election year."
"Universities are about the
exchange of ideas. Some ideas
are uncomfortable, but being
exposed to them is how we
become confident or our own
beliefs and values. That said,
however, it is important that
discussions be balanced," said
Haynes. "The University recognizes the need to present diverse
points of view. Therefore we will
delay Mr. Moore's appearance
until later in the academic year,
and after the election, pending
agreement between his schedule
and ours, and until we can consider how to provide a balancing
perspective."
In response to the cancellation
64 members of the faculty signed
an open letter directed to the
President and the executive council. The letter dated September
15 expressed "strong opposition to the Executive Council's
decision to postpone Michael
Moore's scheduled speaking
engagement..."
"We feel that this decision

CSUSM receives neerly $1 million in budget money
BY CHRIS KING
Pride Staff Writer
Cal State San Marcos is in the
midst of a budget deficit for the
third consecutive year as a result
of state education budget cuts.
" (B^get year) 2004-05 was
probably the worst of the three
years. This was the first time
that the campus had been told
to reduce its target enrollment,"
Terry Allison, Interim Vice President and Chief Financial Officer
of Finance and Administrative
Services, said.
As a result of these cuts in
enrollment 200 fewer students
were allowed to enroll at Cal
State San Marcos this fall semester than the previous year.
In the CSU system, monies are
allocated according to full time
student enrollment. This year
enrollment was cut by 23,000
students statewide in order
accommodate the decrease in
state education funding. This
continues the trend of reduction
in enrollment in the CSU system.
Last year, 250 fewer students
were admitted at CSUSM than
the previous year due to cuts
in the state university system
budget.
CSUSM's budget was originally cut by $3.8 million this
year. However on the day that the
CSU system budget was signed
$40.5 million was reallocated
back to the entire CSU system.
Cal State San Marcos received
nearly $1 million - $995,914 to
be exact - of the $40.5 million
in returned student revenues;
however, it was not enough to
truncate the university's remaining $2,430,781 net deficit for this
fiscal year. Had the University
not received this additional funding, this year's budget deficit
would have exceeded last

know what a terrorist is," said
Adams. "We have a very general
view of what a terrorist is and I
fail to understand why we are
fighting a war on a tactic."
"I think that having an invisible
wall torn down (between government intelligence departments)
is a good thing because then we
have checks and balances," said
Barr. "But when you can define
a terrorist by anything that John
Ashcroft says, well that's a big
problem. When that can't be disputed or vetoed in any way from
congress or any group of people
well then he has complete authority to throw someone into jail,"
added Barr.
Bonomi agreed that removing
barriers between intelligence
departments was a good thing.
"The benefit... it's a big one,"
said Bonomi.
Bonomi defended U.S. intelligence agencies' right to conduct
"sneak and peek operations."
Bonomi also stated that the
Patriot Act was passed with overwhelming bipartisan support.
The next debate to be held
between the College Republicans
and PAN is scheduled for October 26 from 11:30 a.m. to 1p.m.
on the steps of Founders Plaza.
The Republicans have scheduled Larry Greenfield, the Director of the Republican Jewish
Coalition of Southern California,
to debate on their behalf. PAN
has yet to announce a speaker on

executive director of the College Republicans.
"President

"I agree that we need to have

homeland security.

Stuart.

Lanysha Adams, film series

to Bonomi's perception of the

partisan decision making under
cover of suspicious claims of balance," the letter stated. The letter
also called the "very logic of
requiring balanced perspectives
flawed." "Were we to follow it to
its conclusion, we might decide
to invite a speaker to defend the
violence of racist mobs, since
there is currently a very public
exhibit in our new library that
is unabashedly critical of lynching"
The letter concluded that,
"balance should come not from
mechanical juxtaposition of
speakers with opposing opinions. It should come from our
community as we weigh issues,
evidence and opinions. What
could more effectively stimulate this healthy process than an
energetic and reasoned political
speech just the time when such
arguments matter most?" "We
urge you (President Haynes) and
the Executive Council to reverse
your decision and allow our community the opportunity to engage
critically with this timely speaker
and his challenging ideas."
Many faculty members also
sent individual letters of protest
to President Haynes.
"The arguments (implied and
explicit) that the University is a
neutral marketplace of ideas and
that balance in exchange can only
be achieved by having another
equally famous speaker (film
maker?) on the stage with Moore
are unpersuasive," said professor
Dreama Moon. "Under the com-
èli
mittee's logic, this campus may
not have any public presentation
of any type that puts forth a particular viewpoint without having
a counter viewpoint expressed.
If we pursue this rationale to its
(il)logical conclusions, it appears
ludicrous as well as unwieldy.
So the lynching exhibit requires
a complimentary KKK exhibit,
Women's Herstory month activities require complimentary
activities presenting patriarchal viewpoints of women, the
Republican club may never have
a speaker on campus without an
accompanying Democrat (Green,
Independent, ???), environmental educational seminars require
a complimentary argument for
the dumping of hazardous waste,
etc.? I find this logic difficult to
support."
Students organized a campaign to submit letters to President Haynes voicing opposition
to the cancellation. This week in
Founders Plaza students can sign
and submit form letters voicing
their disapproval.

regardless of political affiliation.
Student Heather Frost Vance,
one of the organizers of the protest this upcoming Thursday,
called the cancellation of Moore,
"detrimental to our development
as responsible members of society, "and said that," the way it
was handled makes me feel that
the administration lacks true
commitment to our educational
freedom." Vance said that the
cancellation sent the message
that "they (CSUSM administration) aren't confident in our abilities as critical thinkers and the
education provided us."
There were also those who
expressed support for President
Haynes and the Executive Council's decision.
"We support President Haynes
and the Executive Council's
decision, they did the right thing.
Student funds should not be spent
on a partisan speaker. It needs to
be a speaker that's objective,"
said Nicholas Bonomi, executive
director of the CSUSM College
Republicans. "We should bring
in someone that would speak
for free. If they speak for free it
means they care. If you need to
pay them, the speaker obviously
doesn't care about the audience."
In a letter dated September
16, President Haynes responded
to criticism of the cancellation.

have handled this matter better.

Haynes also responded by
saying, "many members of the

her and the council's decision

Professor Sepinwall receives
teaching award
BY DANIEL LOWE
Pride Staff Writer
She's a respected scholar, has
written numerous articles and
has a new book coming out next
year.
Alyssa Goldstein Sepinwall,
associate professor of history,
was recently chosen to receive
the President's Award for Innovation in Teaching.
"She is not only a distinguished scholar, but also a very
effective teacher," said Tony
Acevedo, a former student of
Sepinwall. "She is also one of the
nicest and concerned professors a
student could hope to meet"
"I nominated Dr. Sepinwall
for the award because f think that
her innovative teaching methods
bring out the best in her students
and the material at hand," said

Acevedo.
When asked about the award
Sepinwall commented on how
touched she was that the students
nominated her and the committee decided that she had earned
the award. She was quick to
give credit to others. "There are
so many wonderful teachers on
campus. I'm just the one chosen
this year. I am very humbled to
be recognized in this way," said
Sepinwall. She credited her colleagues with giving her many of
her teaching ideas.
"She offers fresh and originative approaches to teaching her classes," said Acevedo.
These creative methods include

A new face in athletics
Steven Nichols: Athletic Director
BY SCOTT PHILLIPS
Pride Staff Writer
With the always growing CSU San Marcos population, seeing new faces around campus has become a norm. One new face
in the crowd has a vision to bring the athletic department to something students and faculty can be proud of. His name is Dr.
Stephen Nichols and he is our new interim director of athletics for at least the next two years. Dr. Nichols graduated with a
bachelor's degree from CSU Long Beach, and earned his master's and Ph.D. degrees from Ohio State.
Q: What is your background in the field of sports?
A: When I attended Western High School in Orange County, I was involved with the swim team and the water polo team. After high school, I played water
polo for Cypress Community College, but not for long. Currently, I participate in triathlons (swimming, biking & running) and just ran a half Iron Man in
Oceanside last March.
Q: What brought you to CSU San Marcos?
A: After entertaining offers from other schools, like University of Washington, I visited CSU San Marcos with no prior knowledge of this school. After
interviewing for the position, I felt that this was a school where I could be happy and give the athletic department all the help I can. It is also exciting to
come back to southern California.
Q: What are your immediate priorities for the athletics department?
.;
A: I think it's time for our athletics to grow. Currently, CSU San Marcos is in the NAIA and our goal as a department is to get into the NCAA, Division 2.
To accomplish this we need to get two more team sports and it looks like a soccer team is next in line. Volleyball is another sport that we would like to see
added to our athletic department. We're looking to add onsite sporting events so the student body can get into the school's athletic teams Most people
don't realize that CSU San Marcos has already produced a national champion in track and field and the golf teams have a high ranking within the NAIA.
Q: What is your direct role with the CSU San Marcos athletes?
,. . . .. .
A: My role is to make sure that each sports program is running smooth. Part of my job is to evaluate our athletes both academically and behaviorally. I
also speak at award ceremonies or help out directly, like next month when I pick up our golf team at the airport. My goal is to
handle any problem that might arise, in a punctual and professional manner.
Q: How can CSU students learn more about our athletic department?
A: There is always information available at the Clark Field House, and the school holds tryouts. The best way to get
information on a particular sport is to contact the coach. Because we are trying to be as competitive as we can in athletics, we
have a very active recruiting process that looks for exceptional athletes with good academic standing.
It is exciting that the athletic department is taking steps to give our school first-rate sports teams. Students will be able to rally
around teams, which in turn would bring the student body closer. It appears the outcome of Dr. Nicholas hiring will be a new
sense of school pride for CSUSM athletics.

If

one
wish, what
would it be?
What's your
fantasy?
Well, the fantasy of any sports
fan since the beginning of time
has been to run a professional
sports team. That is the reason
why fantasy sports have become
such a huge success.
If you are a sports fanatic, or
know a sports fanatic, chances
are you know about fantasy
sports. For those that don't
know what the heck I am
talking about I will give
you a quick run down
on the basics for fantasy
football.
You join a league with
a bunch of your friends
where each person receives
their own team. Before the
football season starts you draft
some players compiling a team
of a quarterback, kicker, running backs, wide receivers, and
a team defense. Each week in
the NFL season you match your
team against someone else in the
to leagues like that can cost thousands of dollars with obviously
high rewards.
Fantasy sports are a blast to
play with a bunch of your friends
and I have been doing so since
1999 with a group of some of my
best friends. However, fantasy
games haven't brought all positives to the sports world.
This fantasy sports craze has
made it so that people forget
who their favorite sports team is.
Sometimes you will find yourself
rooting your team on but you
look across the field and see the
opposing team which so happens
to have your fantasy teams star
player which puts you in a predicament. Do you root for your
favorite football team or do you
root for your fantasy team? Well
sadly many people are choosing
the later. Sports fans are slowly
turning into fantasy sports fans
which is a sad site for any true
sports lover.

�THE TRIPE
OPINION
vyi
A±>|±vy±>
Tuesday, September 21,2004
By JASON NICHOLS
MteOmbudsman
A VIEW FROM BOTH SIDES
Michael Moore
is outrageous and
at times, he can
also be obnoxious
but his satire and
wit provide a
platform for the
voice of opposition.
This voice is the
foundation
of
democracy.
Our Po,,
freedom of speech
y Charoenkwanchai
is what makes
us a nation different from those that
have attacked us. Our country is based
on taking sides: Republican, Democrat,
Independent, Green Party etc. Choices are
a part of being American. It is our right
and our duty to question how capable the
leaders of this country are, because if it is
anything but an optimistic illusion, these
leaders serve us: The People.
As a Democrat, I have come to realize
that there is no truth when it comes to
politics. The belief that a president is
guiding us with the best interest of his
constituents rather than that of greedy
power-hungry corporations is a leap of
blind faith. With a world that is at times
scary to live in, we have come closer and
closer to falling without a net. So that begs
the question* who should we trust?
Who is right? Is there a right? I'm
not proposing that the truth lies within
the words of Michael Moore. It is not his
reputation for controversy that earned my
support. It is his unrelenting passion to
speak his mind, despite the opinion of the
general public. I realize that not everyone
wants to hear Moore ranting but there is a
remedy: the OFF button. This would have
worked in a situation where he could have
appeared as a speaker. My advice: Just
don't buy tickets.
People who are put off by Moore
argue that he is unpatriotic. A patriot is
someone who loves, supports and defends
their country. Patriotism is not always
relative to the context of War. Defending
my country is an act that entails more than
just the ability to bear arms. I strongly
support our troops despite the fact that I
am opposed to the mirage we call a cause.
Moore's suspicions about the true nature
of this war are not based on hearsay. There
is documented proof in his books and
films. He includes news articles that hint
to a deeper, more corrupt reason to why
we invaded and conquered Iraq. These
doubts, mirrored by my own, make it hard
for me to believe that this war was fought
for the cause of the American people.
I love America, but it's the system
that bother me. I can not understand
how we can attempt to silence someone
who believes that teachers deserve more
respect and more pay than what they feebly
call their salary. This university is mainly

either deserve, or would have had, had the
engagement gone forward as planned.
Rick Moore also mentioned Michael
Moore's "decision to politicize himself"
as a reason for not bringing him in, which
begs the question: When was Moore not
politicized? Both "Stupid White Men"
and "Dude, Where's My Country?" were
released in paperback shortly before last
year's scheduled appearance; Moore's
publisher, Warner Books, states that in
"Dude, Where's My Country?," "Michael
Moore is on a mission in his new book:
Regime Change," and in "Stupid White
Men" Moore calls for the UN to, "overthrow the Bush Family Junta." So last year
it was okay for Moore to appear alone, and
this year it's not?
Another excuse given is that this is
an election year and last year wasn't (it
actually was, but the recall was over by
Moore's scheduled appearance date).
Let's be honest here: most people will
already have their minds made up before
they go see Moore anyway. I would also
wager that the students of CSUSM — along
with the rest of the potential attendees of
Moore's appearance - will take more than
one person's opinion into account before
deciding how to vote, no matter how close
to the election they hear it.
So bring on Moore. We no more need to
hear a balanced viewpoint when he speaks
in person than we need when we see him
on film, which is a good thing, considering that the CSUSM Center ARTES has
scheduled a free, on-campus showing of
Fahrenheit 9/11 on October 5 (as part of
the Arts & Lectures Series).
Yank the speaker, but not his film? Gee
whiz, that kind of makes me think all those
excuses were just a load of crap. Maybe
Rick Moore's claim during an interview
on the Stacy Taylor show (aml360) is true:
Michael Moore was cancelled for fear that
his appearance would offend CSUSM's big
donors.
Bring in Michael Moore and lose
money? Now there's an excuse any good
Republican can appreciate.

I salute the Presidents'
efforts to stop Michael
Moore. However, the
problem is not solved.
ASI is supposed to be
non-partisan. They openly
attack the governor, the
president, and now they
Dear President Haynes,
I have always thought
of you as a great leader
in our school. You have
participated in events with
students, created a nice
and happy environment;
you even got us all some

administration's decision
to cancel Michael Moore
shows deep disregard for
the students of CSU San
Marcos. First of all, Mr.
Moore was scheduled to
speak approximately a
year ago with out question.
As you know he was
postponed because of the
fires. He has since, as
far as i know, decided to
reschedule for this October.
So your administration
then decides to cancel his
appearance? This should

Felipe Robinson-Zanartu
I hope all of us would
not want to continue
negotiating with a car
dealer that had a teenager's
offer fall through, which
was contingent on his

a loan, if that car dealer
responded by threatening
to sue everybody. Real
estate offers are usually
contingent on several
factors, including
inspections, securing
loans, selling of other real
estate, et cetera. I suspect
that in politics and the
entertainment industry, they
are no different in their
offer and contract practices.
I think we should no

President Haynes' and
the Executive Council's
decision to veto Michael
Moore's appearance at our
campus for a screening of
his powerful, provocative
film, "F. 911." This
undemocratic violation
of academic freedom
saddens and angers me.
Since when must a public
university maintain a
total "fair and balanced"
policy (a la Fox News'
hypocritical slogan)?
The vast majority of
mass media and private
institutions are strongly
Dear Madam President;
My name is Christopher
Mitchell, I am a History
Major and a Senior at
Cal State University
San Marcos. I wanted to
offer you my support in
canceling the intended visit
of Michael Moore.
I agree with your
assessment of the situation
and, as a student here at
CSUSM, I support you
in this matter, however,
unpopular it may have
been to make. Mr. Moore's
political beliefs are not
in question in this matter.

biases towards conservative union spokespersons?

controversial and pro-war);
fairness and balance, will
or will she invite pacifists
President Haynes and the
and anti-war activists to
participate equally with
them?
If we get a noted
evolutionary scientist to
speak on campus, will the
Executive Council insist
on balancing him/her with
a creation scientist in the
name of fairness?
Lastly, Rick Moore's
defensive comment
that Michael Moore has
politicized himself this year
is absurd.
Moore has been a political
activist for many years.
How can anyone believe
that Moore's Oscar
acceptance speech was not
political and controversial?
Having someone of the
caliber of Michael Moore
after the election is closing
the barn door after the
horse has fled. CSUSM
has become Animal Farm
University.
I hope that Associated
Students, CFA, and the
Academic Senate defend
academic freedom and
democracy on our campus.
STEVE WIENER
Staff and former CSEA
Chapter President
for his film's authenticity.
Just because the facts Mr.
Moore artfully arranges in
his films fit a certain thesis,
does not necessarily mean
that the thesis is true.
For example, I have two
dogs at my home. I make
dinner in the evenings for
my family. After dinner,
I feed the table scraps
to my dogs. Now, just
because my dogs think
that I make dinner for
them every night does
not make it so. So is the
way of Mr. Moore's films.
An artful arrangement of
inconclusive facts that
promote an unworkable
thesis. Mr. Moore traded in
honest political discourse
for political propaganda.
In all fairness, this happens
more than I care to admit in
politics today - on the left
and on the right.
Though I don't agree with
Mr. Moore, or his one-sided
propagandist views, having
him appear on a public
college campus, without a
discerning counter-balance
to his propaganda, is
inappropriate a few weeks
before a national election
and not a good use of
public funds.
I applaud your decision
and your reasoning behind
it. Once the election is
over, I don't see any
reason why Mr. Moore
can not visit the campus
in a panel format with the
appropriate panelists that
could bring some sense
to his implausible and
propagandist view point.
Thank you for your time
in this matter. It is always
hard to make an unpopular
decision, even when it is
the right one to make.
Sincerely,
Christopher Mitchell
Senior, History Major
His self-described "one
sided" view of unrelated
facts to fit implausible
theories in his films makes
him controversial to the
point of being a political
propagandist.
Mr. Moore makes no
apologies for his cleverly
crafted use of film to
promote his view of the
world. I don't fault him
for his views but I do fault
him for his over-use of
the "documentary" format
which leaves the viewing
public with more than a
deserving appreciation

This semester students will
have the opportunity to view
"Lynching in America: The
Fabric of Race", an installation
by Renee Billingslea, in the Kellogg Library as a part of the Context Library series.
"Lynching
in
America"
awards a voice to an ugly time
in America's history that is rarely
discussed and often hushed.
Billingslea has applied the usage
of mixed media to help break
a "Code of Silence" that has
existed to protect the perpetrators of racial violence and silence
the victims.
Billingslea uses common
objects filled with thoughtful
symbolism to help people connect with victims who lost their
lives to prejudicial injustice. She
transforms written history into
visual and tactile artistry that can
be experienced and absorbed.
The installation displays many
dirty white dress shirts of men,
women, and children. Billing-
slea said that "by distressing
white shirts, and hanging handsewn nametags from the sleeve,
I honor each life." Because there
are many unknown victims, Billingslea has placed a few shirts
without tags, folded neatly on
shelves to represent and honor
their lives as well.
Billingslea portrays the social
aspects of lynching with a handsewn quilt made of recycled
fabrics and authentic pictures
to create a powerful message
about the spectators.
Billing-
slea said that, "(At a lynching)
people packed food and spread
out blankets, as if attending a
baseball game. Thousands of
people watched, children were
excused from school to attend
with their parents and folks
traveled hundreds of miles just
to see a person be burned or
hung." The pictures are a haunting reminder of America's brutal
past and it really brings home
the fact that people took pleasure
from these horrific events. There
are mason jars on shelves, which
Billingslea says are "vestiges of
violence" that represent things
people might have taken away
from a lynching for souvenirs,
such as locks of hair, remnants of
clothing, or ashes from victims
who were burned.
This installation is a moving
tribute to the thousands of men,
women and children that were
lynched in our country and it
serves as a lesson in humanity.

BY CHRISSY BALDWIN
P ride S taff W riter
Shaun (Simon Pegg, who also
co-wrote the film with director Edgar Wright) isn't having a
very good week. His co-workers
have no respect for him and his
girlfriend Liz has had enough
of his laziness and inconsideration. She cannot stand to spend
another evening with him in the
local pub, the Winchester. Shaun
isn't such a bad guy, but he has
no ambition and seems to prefer
the company of his unemployed,
flatulent, video-game obsessed
slob of aflatmate Ed (Nick Frost)
to anyone else.
As an added bonus, the dead
have risen and are walking the
earth in search of human flesh to
feast upon. Shaun doesn't notice
this fact as quick as he should
(despite the fact that the TV and
radio are broadcasting unexplained phenomenon), but Shaun
is somewhat of a zombie himself,
lost in his own world and distracted by his own thoughts as he
walks past rotting cadavers that
now fill the streets of London.
The beginning of the movie
takes on a satirical view of the
commercialized world and how
people walk about in a trance-like
gaze oblivious to the happenings
that surround them. When Shaun
and Ed finally do realize what is
happening, they form a half-wit
plan to save Shaun's mum, rescue
Liz and go to the pub where they
can wait out the zombie infestation with a pint and a smoke. It
may not be the best plan, but at
least Shaun tried to do something
constructive with his life.
This movie covers a broad
range of emotions from side-
splitting laughter to heartfelt
sincerity with zombies thrown
into the mix. Normally, zombie
horror movies end horribly, without giving too much away that is
not the case with this movie. It
may have to compete with the
ultra-scary remake of George
Romero's "Dawn of the Dead"
(on DVD in late October), but
"Shaun" is able to stand on its
own two feet. It should not be
confused with horror spoof films,
such as the "Scary Movie" trilogy, this movie is actually scary
with parts that make you jump
and gore that makes you cover
your eyes. "Shaun of the Dead"
opens in theaters Friday September, 24. If you are looking for a
good time, check your local listings and be ready to have your
socks knocked off.
Omaha is the most unlikely city
where you would expect to find a
band making electronic music.
But the Nebraska natives, who
comprise The Faint, were able to
create a dance album that sounds
good even without ecstasy.
For anyone acquainted with
The Faint, Wet From Birth had
big shoes to fill. With the success of their 2001 release Danse
Macabre, The Faint have gained
national and international respect
as one of America's best electronic bands. Their album Danse
Macabre went on to be one of
their label's best-selling albums,
and with their constant touring
they are considered to be one
of the best live acts. They have
even worked with DJs such as
Paul O akenfold to create a remix
album entitled Danse Macabre
Remixes.
When going to record their
new album they took their time.
It took about a year for The Faint
to write and record their new
album. The time and care spent
on this record shows. The production is phenomenal, much like
Danse Macabre, and the songs
are filled with 80's pop sensibilities and lots of synthesizers.
But unlike Danse Macabre,
The Faint sometimes stray away
from this formula. On songs
like "Birth" and "Dropkick the
Punks," The Faint shy away from
the drum machines and keyboards to create more guitar orientated songs. Some songs even
overlap both genres. The song "I
Disappear" takes the dance beats
that make The Faint unique and
interesting and blends them with
more tradition guitar and bass.
The lyrical content is very
much similar to Danse Macabre.
A major theme in both albums
is consumer culture. Songs such
as "Symptom Finger" demonstrate this, "The faintness that
you feel is nothing permanent.
Don't buy the sickness on T.V.
You want your health they want
the fee. You see the ads and start
to think, I feel it coming on "
While being even more blatantly political than on previous
efforts they have become even
more personal in their lyrics too.
"How Could I Forget" shows
this trait, "How could I forget a
waste of breath? Of course I do,
remember. All the things you said
were pointless. And now you go
on dropping names...mmm but I
still dig you."
The Faint have done a great job
of doing what many artists can't
do after a successful album, they
made a CD that is just is good if

The �
Pride �
�
CSUSM �
�
California �
State �
University �
San �
Marcos �
�
Tuesday, �
September �
28, �
2004 �
�
Dear �
Readers: �
�
There �
is �
little �
doubt �
that �
you �
may �
have �
questions �
regarding �
this �
issue �
of �
the �
Pride. �
It �
is �
a �
break �
from �
our �
traditional �
format, �
and �
is �
a �
break �
from �
newspaper �
style �
in �
general. �
The �
Pride �
editors �
would �
like �
to �
provide �
some �
insight �
to �
this �
issue. �
�
�
The �
Pride �
office �
was �
moved �
[sic] �
the �
course �
of �
last �
week �
to �
a �
new �
office �
located �
in �
Academic �
Hall. �
As �
a �
condition �
of �
this �
move, �
The �
Pride �
was �
to �
receive �
two �
computers �
to �
supplement �
our �
ability �
to �
produce �
our �
newspaper. �
�
�
The �
move �
was �
addled �
with �
bureaucratic �
manipulation. �
The �
move �
was �
partially �
completed �
by �
two �
separate �
departments: �
IITS �
and �
Facility �
Services. �
�
�
Once �
in �
the �
new �
office, �
our �
computers �
had �
not �
been �
delivered �
nor �
could �
they �
be �
located �
or �
accounted �
for. �
At �
the �
very �
least, �
we �
thought �
we �
could �
function �
as �
normal �
when �
our �
existing �
computers �
were �
moved �
to �
the �
new �
office �
the �
following �
day. �
�
�
However, �
during �
the �
IITS �
move �
of �
our �
existing �
computers, �
the �
hard �
drive �
of �
our �
layout �
computer �
crashed �
and �
no �
one �
knew �
if �
the �
data �
could �
be �
recovered. �
Without �
our �
template �
and �
files �
we �
would �
be �
creating �
a �
newspaper �
from �
scratch. �
�
�
By �
Thursday, �
the �
situation �
escalated �
because �
we �
still �
did �
not �
have �
our �
new �
computers. �
We �
checked �
with �
the �
data �
recovery �
effort �
and �
were �
assured �
that �
we �
were �
on �
the �
lowest �
rung �
of �
importance: �
no �
matter �
who �
or �
what �
department �
on �
campus �
had �
a �
computer �
problem �
they �
would �
get �
priority �
over �
us. �
�
�
We �
asked �
for �
help �
from �
the �
administration �
to �
locate �
and �
deliver �
our �
new �
computers �
and �
to �
see �
to �
it �
that �
we �
had �
a �
higher �
priority �
for �
our �
data �
to �
be �
recovered. �
We �
were �
told �
that �
it �
was �
our �
problem �
to �
deal �
with. �
We �
were �
told �
that �
we �
needed �
to �
be �
creative �
and �
find �
a �
way �
to �
produce �
our �
paper �
without �
our �
layout �
computer. �
Indeed, �
we �
got �
creative. �

[Dear �
Reader, �
from �
pg.1] �
�
From �
our �
brainstorming �
sessions, �
the �
hand-
written �
Pride �
was �
born. �
The �
idea �
served �
the �
dual �
purpose �
of �
getting �
a �
paper �
on �
the �
newsstands �
for �
the �
readers �
and �
demonstrating �
to �
the �
administration �
our �
resilience �
in �
the �
face �
of �
idling �
bureaucracy. �
�
THANK �
YOU, �
�
[signatures] �

CSUSM �
Protests �
�Last �
Thursday, �
200-
300 �
students �
protested �
the �
cancellation �
of �
filmmaker �
Michael �
Moore’s �
scheduled �
visit �
to �
campus. �
�
�
Students �
and �
faculty �
gathered �
in �
front �
of �
University �
Hall �
at �
11 �
A.M. �
in �
order �
to �
exercise �
their �
freedom �
of �
speech. �
�
�
“Claim �
your �
Education �
Freedom �
of �
Information” �
was �
the �
slogan. �
Students �
carried �
signs �
and �
wore �
baseball �
caps �
to �
voice �
their �
opposition. �
The �
event �
attracted �
the �
attention �
of �
many �
students, �
faculty �
and �
local �
media. �
�
�
A �
variety �
of �
speakers �
including �
students, �
professors, �
and �
other �
community �
members �
encouraged �
students �
not �
to �
stay �
silent �
but �
to �
voice �
their �
opinions. �
�
�
“Do �
you �
know �
our �
names? �
We �
are �
tomorrow �
and �
today” �
sang �
senior �
Heather �
Vance, �
one �
of �
the �
protest �
organizers. �
She �
sang �
a �
song �
urging �
students �
not �
to �
be �
silenced. �
She �
challenged �
the �
administration �
to �
“let �
us �
get �
involved �
in �
our �
education.” �
�
�
One �
of �
the �
speakers �
for �
the �
event, �
Associate �
Professor �
Sharon �
Elise �
said �
that �
when �
she �
heard �
Moore �
wasn’t �
coming �
she �
was �
“shocked.” �
She �
asked �
the �
students �
during �
her �
speech, �
“What �
is �
so �
scary �
about �
Michael �
Moore? �
Did �
I �
hear �
someone �
say �
donors?” �
�
Encouraging �
students �
to �
vote �
was �
a �
common �
theme �
among �
the �
speakers. �

[Protest �
from �
pg.1] �
�
CSUSM �
President �
Karen �
Haynes, �
the �
person �
largely �
responsible �
for �
the �
cancellation, �
was �
among �
those �
present �
at �
the �
protest. �
“I �
hope �
we �
will �
learn �
something.” �
When �
asked �
if �
she �
was �
Republican, �
Haynes �
said �
“That �
was �
not �
part �
of �
my �
decision.” �
�
“We �
really �
feel �
supported, �
noticed �
and �
heard,” �
said �
student �
Aamora �
Ysrael. �
When �
asked �
if �
the �
event �
will �
make �
a �
difference �
she �
said, �
“I �
don’t �
know �
if �
it �
will �
or �
not. �
The �
important �
thing �
is �
that �
the �
students �
have �
tried. �
It’s �
remarkable �
to �
see �
students �
come �
together �
in �
such �
big �
numbers.” �
�
“It �
was �
an �
incredibly �
important �
political �
lesson �
about �
the �
power �
of �
organized �
protest. �
People �
should �
remember �
because �
this �
is �
how �
change �
happens,” �
said �
Assistant �
Professor �
Lance �
Newman. �
“Students �
did �
a �
great �
job. �
I �
hope �
this �
is �
the �
beginning �
of �
a �
lively �
political �
discussion �
on �
campus.” �
�
ASI �
announced �
last �
Thursday �
that �
thanks �
to �
private �
donors �

�
Last �
Wednesday, �
September �
22, �
students �
and �
staff �
gathered �
on �
the �
Kellogg �
Library �
terrace �
for �
a �
“Thank �
you �
for �
Recycling” �
celebration. �
There �
were �
games, �
prizes �
and �
almost �
500 �
hot �
dogs �
handed �
out �
at �
the �
event. �
�
�
“For �
this �
event �
we �
wanted �
to �
focus �
on �
the �
accomplishment �
which �
the �
school �
has �
reached �
with �
recycling �
and �
encourage �
students �
to �
recycle �
more,” �
said �
Carl �
Hanson �
a �
Green �
member �
who �
helped �
organize �
the �
event. �
�
� �
State �
law �
requires �
public �
institutions �
to �
recycle �
50 �
percent �
of �
their �
waste. �
As �
of �
January �
2004, �
CSUSM �
was �
recycling �
56.2 �
percent �
of �
campus �
wasted. �
CSUSM �
has �
the �
highest �
standing �
for �
recycling �
among �
CSU �
campuses, �
according �
to �
the �
Green �
Team. �
�
�
The �
campus �
recycling �
program �
has �
become �
a �
huge �
success �
because �
students �
seem �
to �
have �
become �
very �
environmentally �
conscious. �
Students’ �
willingness �
to �
recycle �
has �
helped �
our �
university �
save �
over �
$100, �
000. �
“The �
university �
doesn’t �
have �
to �
pay �
as �
much �
for �
trash �
disposal �
due �
to �
the �
increase �
in �
recycling, �
and �
subsequent �
decrease �
in �
amount �
of �
trash,” �
said �
Hanson. �
�
�
The �
goal �
of �
the �
Green �
Team �
if �
for �
CSUSM �
to �
become �
a �
waste �
free �
campus. �
Students �
and �
faculty �
can �
help �
the �
Green �
Team �
reach �
their �
goal �
by �
becoming �
more �
aware �
of �
which �
materials �
can �
be �
recycled. �
For �
example �
the �
plastic �
cups �
from �
Starbucks �
are �
recyclable. �

The �

Gerardo �
González] �
�
�
After �
submitting �
and �
application �
and �
a �
review �
by �
a �
committee, �
this �
year’s �
recipient �
for �
the �
President’s �
Award �
for �
Scholarly �
and �
Creative �
Activity �
is �
Gerado �
Gonzales, �
director �
of �
the �
National �
Latino �
Center �
(NLRC) �
and �
professor �
of �
psychology. �
�
�
“I �
enjoy �
working �
with �
student �
[sic],” �
said �
Gonzales. �
“My �
goal �
is �
to �
share �
research �
opportunities �
with �
students �
and �
if �
they �
can �
get �
involved �
while �
in �
the �
graduate �
program, �
this �
increases �
their �
chances �
for �
careers.” �
�
Coming �
from �
a �
large �
migrant �
hard �
working �
family, �
Gonzales �
first �
arrived �
at �
CSUSM �
in �
1991. �
As �
one �
of �
two �
professors �
in �
the �
psychology �
department �
during �
that �
time, �
he �
has �
seen �
rapid �
changes �
on �
and �
off �
campus. �
�
�
After �
graduating �
from �
CSU �
Fresno, �
Gonzales �
received �
his �
doctorate �
from �
California �
School �
of �
Professional �
Psychology. �
He �
has �
completed �
extensive �
clinical �
and �
research �
training �
in �
psychotherapy �
at �
UC �
Berkeley �
for �
two �
years. �
Gonzales �
also �
completed �
a �
post �
doctorate �
research �
fellowship �
at �
the �
University �
of �
San �
Francisco. �
�
�
Gonzales �
has �
been �
an �
adjunct �
professor �
at �
CSU �
Hayward �
for �
one �
year �
and �
UC �
Berkeley. �
Since �
1991, �
Gonzales �
has �
taught �
many �
psychology �
courses �
ranging �
from �
computer �
applications �
in �
psychology, �
in �
the �
upper �
division �
level, �
to �
graduate �
programs �
courses �
such �
as �
pre-
seminar �
in �
counseling �
and �
clinical �
psychology. �
�
�
Director �
of �
the �
NLRC �
since �
2002, �
the �
organization �
specializes �
in �
research, �
training, �
technical �
assistance �
and �
services �
that �
commit �
to �
the �
understanding �
and �
awareness �
of �
the �
United �
States �
Latino �
community. �
The �
research �
is �
conducted �
from �
community �
issues �
and �
concerns �
to �
a �
solution. �
�
�
Research �
topics �
included �
education, �
public �
policy, �
employment, �
mental �
and �
physical �
health. �
The �
services �
include �
evaluations, �
demographic �
studies, �
�assessments, �
interest �
groups, �
surveys �
and �
data �
analyses. �
Thus �
they �
are �
available �
to �
public �
agencies �
and �
community �
organizations. �
�
�
“My �
encouragement �
is �
if �
you �
haven’t �
thought �
about �
graduate �

Second �
chances �
are �
a �
blessing. �
We �
don’t �
always �
get �
one �
when �
we �
want �
and �
sometimes �
we �
get �
one �
when �
we �
really �
don’t �
deserve �
one. �
One �
person �
who �
wants �
a �
second �
chance �
is �
Pete �
Rose. �
Who �
knows �
if �
he �
will �
ever �
get �
one �
or �
if �
he �
even �
deserves �
one? �
�
ESPN �
released �
a �
movie �
last �
Saturday �
title �
“Hustle” �
which �
is �
the �
true �
story �
of �
Pete �
Rose’s �
life; �
ESPN �
specifically �
focuses �
on �
the �
occurrences �
of �
when �
Rose �
was �
banned �
from �
baseball �
for �
gambling �
on �
the �
sport �
while �
managing �
the �
Cincinnati �
Reds. �
�
15 �
years �
ago, �
Pete �
Rose �
was �
caught �
betting �
on �
baseball �
and �
he �
compounded �
his �
troubles �
by �
lying �
about �
it. �
Yet �
for �
some �
reason �
he �
still �
receives �
huge �
fan �
support. �
Recently �
ESPN.com �
ran �
a �
poll �
that �
asked �
if �
you �
think �
Rose �
should �
be �
reinstated �
and �
Rose �
received �
58 �
percent �
in �
his �
favor. �
�
Rose �
broke �
the �
cardinal �
sin �
in �
baseball, �
he �
spent �
time �
behind �
bars �
and �
he �
committed �
adultery. �
It �
still �
stuns �
me �
to �
see �
Rose �
receive �
so �
much �
support. �
However, �
it �
is �
easy �
to �
understand �
why. �
It �
is �
because �
he �
is �
easy �
to �
relate �
to. �
�
I �
mean �
how �
many �
of �
you �
have �
got �
in �
trouble �
and �
didn’t �
know �
what �
to �
do �
so �
you �
just �
decided �
to �
lie �
and �
hope �
for �
the �
best. �
But �
before �
you �
knew �
it, �
you �
got �
too �
caught �
up �
in �
your �
lies �
and �
eventually �
you �
got �
busted. �
That �
is �
what �
happened �
with �
Rose �
but �
just �
on �
a �
larger �
stage. �
�
I �
am �
sure �
even �
Pet �
wouldn’t �
bet �
on �
himself �
getting �
a �
second �
change �
since �
it �
has �
been �
15 �
years �
and �
his �
chances �
don’t �
look �
too �
rosey �
anymore. �

I’m �
tongue-

The �
hit �

“Moore-

is �
slamming �
the �
airwaves �
of �
Discussion �
and �
everybody �
hopes �
to �
dance �
to �

On �
the �
plus �
side, �
our �

is �
no �
longer �
the �
red-
headed �
stepchild �
of �
universities. �
People �
no �
longer �
cock �
their �
head �
to �
the �

when �
we �
tell �
them �
where �
we �
go �
to �

�
�
On �
to �
my �

Bob �
Dickey, �
Chemistry �

send �
a �
letter �
to �
the �

Dickey �
said, �
“ASI �
should �
reconsider �
student �
fund �
support �
for �
a �
newspaper �
that �
has �
major �
problems �
with �
its �
headlines.” �
�
I �
totally �
agree. �
Newspapers �
aren’t �
nearly �
as �
scrumptious-
diddley-
umptious �
as �
burgers �
and �
punch. �
Too �
bad, �
so �
sad �
that �
ASI �
don’t �
provide �
the �
DeNiro. �
Pride �
funds �
come �
from �
the �
IRA, �
the �
Instructionally �
Related �
Activities �
fund. �
Now �
this �
does �
come �
from �
student �
fees, �
so �
Mr. �
Dickey �
still �
has �
a �
point. �
�
�
Each �
year, �
the �
Pride �
jingles �
a �
cup �
and �
begs �
for �
some �
money. �
Coupled �
with �
the �
advertisements �
we �
pick �
up, �
this �
is �
our �
only �
source �
of �
funds. �
Is �
it �
fair �
that �
every �
student �
has �
to �
give �
up �
some �
cash �
(however �
miniscule) �
to �
a �
paper �
they �
may �
not �
read? �
Hell �
no. �
�
�
On �
the �
flip �
side �
of �
things, �
nobody �
has �
had �
to �
send �
in �
that �
quarter �
they �
owe �
after �
the �
first �

Fair �
or �
not, �
you �
gotta �
admit �
that �
having �
something �
to �
read �
(that �
isn’t �
assigned �
to �
a �
syllabus) �
creates �
a �
lot �
of �
happy �
joy-
joys �
each �
week. �
�
�
Perhaps �
we �
just �
need �
to �
work �
harder �
at �
giving �
you �

It’s �
that �

�
Dear �
Editor, �
�
�
I �
am �
very �
surprised �
that �
a �
president �
of �
higher �
learning �
is �
doing �
such �
an �
ignorant �
thing �
as �
this �
(or �
maybe �
what �
she �
really �
is �
doing �
is �
going �
to �
work �
in �
Michael �
Moore’s �
favor). �
�
�
I �
am �
beginning �
to �
believe �
that �
there �
are �
some �
people �
in �
this �
country �
who �
find �
Michael �
Moore, �
his �
“partisan �
politics”, �
and �
his �
film �
Farenheight �
[sic] �
Nine-
Eleven, �
very �
�
threatening. �
It �
makes �
me �
wonder �
about �
why �
he �
is �
seen �
as �
such �
a �
threat; �
could �
it �
be �
that �
everything �
in �
his �
movie �
about �
our �
president �
is �
true? �
�
�
I �
had �
to �
see �
Michael �
Moore’s �
movie �
twice �
because �
I �
almost �
couldn’t �
believe �
what �
I �
was �
seeing �
and �
hearing! �
I �
also �
plan �
on �
buying �
his �
movie �
on �
DVD �
when �
it �
comes �
out �
in �
October; �
just �
so �
that �
I �
can �
watch �
it �
again �
and �
again �
so �
I �
can �
connect �
all �
the �
dots �
together �
myself �
at �
my �

�
Thank �
you �

what �
you �

You �
have �
made �

America �

�
Dear �
Editor, �
�
�
�
I �
am �
shocked �
students �
are �
willing �
to �
spend �
over �
$30,000 �
to �
bring �
Michael �
Moore �
to �
Cal �
State �
San �
Marcos. �
As �
a �
former �
students �
of �
CSUSM �
and �
a �
taxpayer �
I �
am �
outraged �
that �
anyone �
would �
want �
to �
use �
these �
scarce �
funds �
on �
a �
single �
event. �
I �
think �
the �
money �
would �
be �
better �
spent �
on �
hiring �
additional �
professors �
to �
have �
more �
classes �
to �
offer �
for �
the �
upcoming �
spring �
semester. �
�
�
I �
may �
not �
agree �
100% �
with �
Michael �
Moore �
and �
would �
have �
no �
problem �
with �
addressing �
the �
campus. �
The �
problem �
I �
have �
with �
him �
is �
the �
cost. �
He �
is �
a �
millionaire �
that �
claims �
to �
care �
about �
the �
common �
man. �
What �
kind �
of �
person �
that �
truly �
cares �
about �
the �
poor �
charges �
a �
public �
university �
over �
$30,000 �
to �
speak �
at �
their �
campus? �
Someone �
that �
is �
after �
money. �
He �
has �
made �
so �
much �
money �
from �
his �
last �
movie, �
his �
speaking �
tour �
should �
be �
free �
everywhere. �
I �
am �
sure �
someone �
would �
be �
willing �
to �
give �
up �
a �
bed �
or �
two �
in �
order �
for �
Michael �
Moore �
to �
come. �
�
�
If �
the �
students �
are �
so �
concerned �
about �
Free �
Speech �
on �
campus �
why �
have �
they �
not �
challenged �
the �
campus �
to �
make �
the �
entire �
area �
a �
Free �
Speech �
zone? �
Yet �
people �
thing �
to �
take �
in �
mind �
the �
idea �
of �
Free �
Speech �
is �
to �
offend �
someone �
because �
everybody �
does �
not �
have �
the �
same �
opinion. �
To �
people �
that �
think �
that �
ASI �
is �
basically �
run �
by �
PAN. �
The �
only �
reason �
[sic] �
I �
can �
think �
of �
they �
are �
the �
only �
organization �
on �
campus �
that �
cares �
to �
get �
involved �
with �
campus �
life. �
Other �
organizations �
need �
to �
step �
up �
to �
the �
plate �
when �
elections �
come �
up �
next �
year. �

�
It’s �
a �
bird, �
it’s �
a �

it’s �
time �
for �
another �
season �
of �
Smallville. �
For �
those �
of �
you �
who �
are �
thinking �
to �
yourselves, �
“Smallville? �
Isn’t �
that �
Batman �
or �
something?” �
you’re �
on �
the �
right �
track. �
Smallville �
is �
a �

series �
developed �
by �
distinguished �
writers �
and �
directors �
Alfred �
Gough �
and �
Miles �
Millar �
(Spider �

based �
on �
the �
Superman �
comic �
book. �
In �
a �

called �
Smallville �
Clark �
Kent �
(Tom �
Welling) �
develops �
super-
human �
powers, �
saves �
lives, �
all �
while �
experiencing �
the �
hardships �
of �
teenage �
life �
at �
Smallville �
High. �
�
�
Now �
on �
its �
fourth �
season, �
Smallville �
returns �
after �
truly �
leaving �
us �
viewers �
with �
numerous �
cliff-
hangers. �
�
�
This �
episode �
successfully �
held �
up �
to �
its �
high �
expectations. �
Some �
mysteries �
were �
solved, �
and �
some �
remain, �
maintaining �
the �
suspense. �

she �
is �

To �

who �
tries �
to �
convince �
her �
that �
she �
never �
had �

he �
was �
simply �

out �
to �

of �
a �

who �

�
�
“The �

is �
a �
fast �
paced, �
mystery �
filled �
with �
suspense. �
This �
movie �
is �
intense �

unpredictable, �
and �
at �
times �
is �
a �
little �
hard �
to �

�
�
Moore �
