WRITING CENTER OPENS
Faced with a menacing2,500-word, acrossthe-cuiriculum writing requirement, Cal
State San Marcos students are hard-pressed
to deal with anxiety created by term paper
assignments. To help students in the process of writing class assignments, Dr. Ken
Mendoza, professor in the English Department, has organized an on-campus writing
center. The Center uses student tutors to
help decipher class writing projects.

Students to attend conference
Representing Cal State San Marcos' first
scholastic student delegation, two students have
been selected to attend EUREKA, a national
conference of undergraduate research.
At the conference, held at the California
Institute of Technology in Pasadena, students
from universities across the nation will share
their research projects in 18-minute oratory
presentations.
Traditionally, the conference was restricted
to research projects of technical nature, however, this year papers from the field of humanities will also be presented.
Students CynthiaChovich and Anne Radspinner were chosen by Professor Madeleine
Marshall to represent CSUSM because of research papers done for her Women's Studies
course last semester.
"Several other students did extraordinary
work as well," cited Marshall. She said that
Chovich's and Radspinner's papers were selected because of their adaptability for presentation.
For the conference, each paper must be transformed into an 18-minute oral presentation.
After each address, the students will be questioned about the subject of the presentation.
Radspinner, who wrote her paper about a
quarrel between Mary Wolstencraft and Jean
Jaques Rousseau, said she is nervous about
presenting a literary topic to academics who
have strong literary foundations. "I don't feel
that I have enough literature background to get
up and talk about it," she said.
Chovich expressed that she too was nervous
about the conference, but said she felt honored
and excited about being chosen to attend it. Her
paper deals with Delariviera Manley, an 18thcentury woman author who was known for her
bold points of view.
"(When I chose the assignment) I told Madeleine I wanted to profile a woman who was
outrageous and outspoken," said Chovich. In
the 1700s, Manley was jailed for her book, "The
New Atlantis."
She was later released after men of the time
summized that a woman was incapable of writing such controversial works.
Marshall said that both papers represented a
pioneering spirit that students have adopted in
their approaches to research papers at CSUSM.
She said that students helped each other in the
process of gathering information for the assignment
According to Marshall, the college has given
overwhelming support for the conference. She
said that founding faculty member Joan Gundersen (History) and Executive Vice President
Richard Rush were integral in the process of
entering and attending the conference.
Construction starts amid drought
L ARRY BOISJOLIE/PIONEER
Even though construction has begun on the
$14.3 million Craven Hall Building, campus
officials are concerned that the current drought
and budgetary problems may drown all hopes
of opening the Twin Oaks Valley Rd. campus
by the scheduled fall 1992 date.
According to Albert Amado, vice president of Physical Planning and Campus Construction, all of the time buffer allotted to the
project was eaten up in a 12-week construction halt, which stemmed from a dispute between former contractor Louetto Construction Inc. and grading subcontractor C.W. Poss.
"If we experience any more delays," said
Amado, "the college will be forced to find
additional renting space for fall 1992."
Amado said that since the replacement of
Louetto by the San Marcos-based Lusardi
Construction Co., construction has moved
along at a brisk pace.
According to Amado, Lusardi met its first
deadline with the completion of pads for the
Phase I Academic Buildings and Craven Hall.
Work on the six-story centerpiece began March
4, with construction on the academic complex
buildings starting on March 5. Central plant
construction is scheduled to commence this
summer.
Perhaps the biggest obstacle facing campus construction is the 5-year-old drought
which is currently plaguing California.
Last Thursday, directors of the San Diego
County Water Authority unanimously approved enactment of the most severe wateruse restrictions in county history. The restrictions would require that residents of S an Diego
County cut water usage 50 percent during the
summer.
"I have not yet been advised of water
shortages hurting construction," Amado said.
He pointed out that the decision ofwhether or
not to cut water supplies to construction
projects will come directly from the County
Water Authority.
Mark Watton, of the CWA, speculated last
Friday that, even with the series of storms
heading toward San Diego, the amount of
water added to the state's reserves would be
minimal. He said that cutbacks would be reduced by only a few percentage points even

FEE INCREASE APPROVED
In a unanimous vote by the CSU Board of Trustees last Wednesday ,
a proposed fee increase of 20 percent by California Governor Pete
Wilson was approved.
If Wilson's budget is implemented, the fee increase will take affect
in fall, 1991. The budget increase would raise part-time tuition by $90
per-year and full-time tuition by $154.
A ten-point plan addressing the 1991-92 CSU budget was also presented to the governor by the trustees. Due to the failure of Prop. 143 in
November, the CSU system faces a shortfall in revenues totalling $90
million.
GOVERNMENT SURVEY TABULATED
Tabulations of a survey of how a government representing the
student body should look, are now in. Of the 126 surveys received, all
but 10 supported efforts to form a student governmental organization.
The predominant model chosen by those who completed the questionnaire was a representative-type of government. This form of government received 68 responses of favorable manner, while the Presidential model got 26 and the Corporate/Municipal model registered 21
votes. Eight of those surveyed had no opinion.
The. results indicated that the Associated Students' constitution
should have an initiative process and recall provisions.
Direct election was the favored form of selection of governmental
representatives, with 87 positive responses.
Most students said they would prefer that the head of the student
government be a president rather than a chairperson of the Board or
council chair.
NEW SCHOLARSHIPS ANNOUNCED
The CSUSM Office of Financial Aid has information and applications for the two new scholarships. Both scholarships are available for
undergraduate students at CSUSM.
The American Association of University Women is a $250award for
female juniors or seniors who are San Diego County residents and have
at least a 3.0 overall GPA. Deadline for applications is May 1,1991.
The Great Western/Rancho Pefiasquitos S cholarship is for an undergraduate Business major with a 3.0 or higher GPA. The award is for
$500 and the application deadline is June 3,1991.
In addition to the new scholarships, the Office of Financial Aid
would like to inform students that several good on-campus jobs are now
available for CSUSM students that have been awarded college workstudy.
NEWSPAPER STAFF TO ATTEND
STATEWIDE CONFERENCE
Members of the staff of Pioneer, are scheduled to attend a statewide
journalism conference in Sacramento March 21,22 and 23. The conference, held by the California Intercollegiate Press Association (CIPA),
will be attended by representatives from 23 university newspapers
across California.
At the yearly event, delegates will attend seminars and compete in
on-site competitions. Previous issues of Pioneer have been sent for
judging, with results to be announced during the conference.
"If we receive only one award," said Larry Boisjolie, Pioneer's
Editor-in Chief, "it will be a remarkable achievement."
According to Boisjolie, the conference allows CSUSM students to
participate in an intercollegiate event for the first time.
Along with Boisjolie, Graphics Director Jonathan Young, staff
writers Debbie Duffy and Elaine Whaley, and photographer Kathy
Sullivan will partic pate in the conference.
University, local businesses
will be 'partners' in education
J ONATHAN YOUNG/PIONEER
With an announcement of the
implementation of a Business Partners Program at Cal State San Marcos
last Tuesday, Business Administration Department officials introduced
a mentor program exclusive to
CSUSM.
"We believe that this program is
the first in America to take the integration of the University and the
Business Community to such lengths,"
said Bernard Hinton, Dean of Business Administration.
"Others have developed a number
ofexcellentprograms . ...The critical
difference in our program is the concept of a true partnership, a full and
total involvement of members of the
business community in the education
of today's students and tomorrow's
business managers."
As a four level plan, the Business
Partners Program would unify the
academic and business communities.
The Business Associates, Business
Partners, and Senior Business Partners programs will establish a business mentorship program, with each
program reflecting increasing levels
of company participation.
A B usiness Affiliates program will
also be implementèd forfirmswhich
lack the resources to participate in the
higher levels of personal involvement
or commitment required for the other
programs.
"The (overall) program calls for
each College of Business Administration student to be matched with a
mentor drawn from the business
community," said Hinton. "The same
student/mentor relationship will be
maintained . .. for the duration of the
Business club forming
In order to facilitate the process of locating mentors to participate in
the recently announced Business Partners Program, the CSUSM Business Students Association will hold its first meeting today at 6 p.m.
Another meeting will be held March 20 at noon.
The primary task of the BS A is to compile a pool of businesses that
would be interested in participating in the Business Partners Program,
a new program announced by the College of Business Administration
last Tuesday.
The group is being organized, under the guidance of Business Dean
Bernard Hinton, to give students the opportunity to aid in the selection
of candidates for the program.
The Business Partners Program will be implemented in fall 1991 and
requires a personal tutor for each College of Business student. CSUSM
officials estimate 400-500 students will enroll in the business program
that semester.
Times and club leaders will be chosen at the first two meetings.
student's stay at CSU, San Marcos."
Hinton said the program would be
beneficial for both students and businesses.
"As the mentoring relationship
develops, the student is expected to
become involved in resolving realworld programs . ..," Hinton said.
"We are confident that the Business Partners Program will allow us
to forge a strong link between classroom experience and business experience. It is designed to address the
needs of the business community of
San Diego and North County, to provide graduates who have a practical
business orientation, and to help students successfully launch their careers in the business world."
The Business Mentors Program
will be the first in the nation to mandate mentoring within the curriculum, rather than having it serve in an
adjunctive role in the student's education.
"While mentoring has been widely
accepted as an especially effective
way of assisting individuals in their
learning process, the idea of formal
business mentoring of all students is
one that I believe to be unique to CS U,
San Marcos," Hinton said.
Hinton said this program will be in
place by fall of 1991. With the expected enrollment at that time, the
College of Business needs 400-500
mentors to be involved with the program.
. "We are dependent upon (the
media) to help us get the word out to
our potential partners that we are
ready, willing, and able to do our part,
but they must first identify themselves," Hinton said. "They must step

�CSU Senate calls for system-wide ROTC ban
With a unanimous decision, the California
State University Academic Senate voted to urge
all 20 CSU campuses to eliminate the Reserve
Officer Training Corps (ROTC) programs based
on the military's discrimination policy against
homosexuals.
In a resolution passed March 1, the CSU
Academic Senateclaimed the ROTC program's
discrimination on the basis of sexual orien tation
is a violation of basic humanrightsand inimical
to the valuesof the university, and is in violation

is that the CSU does not support groups and

If you have read the papers lately,
or even watched some television, you
may have noticed the current advertising blitz for Gyne-Lotriman. This
medication for vaginal yeast infections can now be purchased over the
counter since its approval by the U.S.
Food and Drug Administration.
Monistat, another medication for
vaginal yeast infections, will also be
available very shortly.
These are more effective than the
currentover-the-countermedications
and previously were only available
by prescription from a physician. Both
medications are considered to be very
safe if one doesn't have an allergy or
sensitivity to them. Both have been
used for a long time and have few side
effects.
How these drugs will be used,
however, has raised concerns in the
medical community. According to the
drug companies, they are supposed to
be used by women who previously
have been diagnosed and have recurrent vaginal yeast infections.
The symptoms of the problem are
fairly straightforward: a white cottage cheese-like vaginal discharge and
itching. There should not be abdominal pains, fever, urinary symptoms ar
skin lesions present
Women who have recently been
on antibiotics, who are on oral contraceptives or who are pregnant are most
likely to develop yeast infections.
Unfortunately, some women associate itching with a yeast infection
and are likely to use the medication
which could mask symptoms of more
serious infections.

Because of this, weatHealth Services advise that women who have

The ROTC program assists with the funding

"ROTC brings more educated students into

New center reduces writing anxiety
LARRY BOISJOLIE/PIONEER
Faced with a menacing 2,500-word, across-thecurriculum writing requirement, Cal State San Marcos
students are hard-pressed to deal with anxiety created
by term paper assignments.
To help students. in the process of writing class
assignments, Dr. Ken Mendoza, professor in the English Department, has organized an on-campus writing
center. The Center uses student tutors to help decipher
class writing projects.
"This is not a paper mill," says Mendoza. He stresses
that the objective of the Center is to help students
formulate their own ideas and not to write their papers.
The 10 student tutors working in the Center are
comprised mostly ofEnglish and Liberal Studies majors.
They meet with Mendoza on a bi-weekly basis in
seminars to learn tutoring concepts and methods of
dealing with problems. Each tutor is required to spend
a minimum of two hours per week in the Center. In return, they receive three units of class credit each.
"We've had people from eight different majors use
the Center so far," says Robin Keehn, student director
for the Writing Center.
Keehn says she has already tutored students who
had difficulty approaching research papers, poetry
interpretations, journalsand social-psychology papers.
Even though tutors will face subject matter with which
they may be unfamiliar, Keehn says tutors still can help
students formulate their own ideas.
"Tutors can help anyone get ideas for papers," she
points out. "No writer writes within a vacuum."
Tutor Elizabeth Sansom says that feedback is an
important element in the paper-writing process.
"I would not think about turning in a paper without
getting feedback first," she says.
Since its opening a month ago, the Writing Center
has increased in its popularity. Keehn says that business is expanding so quickly at the Center, that students
are advised to make appointments with tutors.
"I had to turn away three students yesterday," Keehn
said last Friday.
With the second half of the spring semester starting
after Easter, tutors anticipate an increase in students
using the Center. Since many assigned papers are due
in the final days of class, tutors expect the need for the
Writing Center to increase.
Keehn stresses that students should utilize the facilities at the Center in order for the program to continue
its operation.
"Our hope is that we will prove the worthiness of
this project," cites Keehn. "If we want to make our
program live, we need students."
Student tutor Roy Latas says that professors he has
informed about the Writing Center have expressed
enthusiasm in the concept and have openly encouraged
students to take advantage of the opportunities afforded by i t
Keehn says the Center will help students at any
stage of the paper-writing process. From die "germ of
an idea" to the final product, students need help in
approaching problems, says Keehn.
"I guarantee that if anyone brings a paper in here, the
writing will improve."

Another problem facing the budding campus is the lack of available
funding from the state. With the failure of Proposition 143 last November, money, that would have gone
into furnishing the new buildings,
suddenly became unavailable.
"The state is currently experiencing major financial difficulties," said
Amado. " It's difficult to acquire any

Funding has already been approved

rate at which Phase II will begin is
dependent upon another source of

ROTC ban discriminates against
disadvantaged students, not gays
Exactly what is the real message the Academic Senate is
trying to send with the urging of all 20 CSU campuses to
eliminate the Reserve Officers' Training Corps from thesystem?
The Academic Senate claims the basis for such a suggestion
stems from the ROTC's refusal to accept homosexuals into its
organization. Because of the organization's bias, the Academic
Senate feels it necessary to deprive low-income citizens—who
have no prayer of raising funding for education save through the
programs ROTC offers — of higher education.
Once again the overly liberal academic community contradicts its own goals through its actions. The Academic Senate
seems more concerned with making a liberal statement than it
does with the advancement of education to as many people as
possible.
Themilitary'spolicyofnotacceptinghomosexualsamongits
ranks is a valid age-old policy that is reflective of the moral
integrity that our armed forces are supposed to represent Those
that serve in the American military should be spotless examples
of perceived social morality.
Whether we like it or not, the military is an elite, sexually
segregated club that has proven its ability to run efficiently
without the opinions of the academic community. Whether we
like it or not, it should remain as such.
Its members should be constructed of the highest moral fiber
attainable in America. Even though this goal will never be fully
met, it can be pushed along towardfruitionwith the policy of antihomosexuality.
Issues of sexuality have no place on the battlefield. If the
American military starts accepting homosexuals what will be
next? Coed bunkers? Perhaps a battalion of those who practice
bestiality will arise.
Even with this age of sexual enlightenment and tolerance,
homosexuality is still considered socially aberrant behavior. For
thisreasonwe will never have a gay President nor should we have
a gay militia.
The reason homosexuality becomes a public issue for discrimination is that liberal organizations, like the Academic

For those who cry

heaped upon
toem because of their sexuality,
we can only say, "You
should have kept it to yourself and your partner. We didn't care
to know about your sex life in the first place."
With its shunning of ROTC, the Academic Senate is drawing
attention to an issue that few of us, save the vocal out-of-thecloset homosexuals care about. As a result of its action, those
who joined ROTC to afford a quality education will be deprived.
Why should the military discriminate against a private activity like homosexuality you may ask? The answer is simple. On
the battlefield private lives temporarily cease to exist. All personal problems and abnormalities are shared with the guy in the
trench next door.
Imagine how comfortable a guy in a tank would feel when
confined with a raging queen. The last thing his uncomfortable
mind will want to do is fight the enemy.
We at Pioneer are by no means homophobic, rather we would
like to stress the point that individuals with contempt for homosexuals do exist Judging from the very goal of the military, it is
probably safe to say that more than one homophobe exists in the
armed services. The last thing our military needs is internal
conflicts between heterosexuals and gays.
So what is the Academic Senate really doing by condemning
the ROTC's age-old policy? They are simply trying to gain some
liberal ground that is currently slipping with the rise in the
conservative military's popularity.
That's a pretty sad reason for excluding the needy from
education.
Imagine a country so buried in its own garbage it pays poor
countries to take the waste off its own hands. Or a country that
actually considers sending its trash into space. Or a country
with barges piled high with trash and nowhere to go.
As we approach the 21 st anniversary of Earth Day on April
22, there is no need to
imagine such a country; it is America.
It is time to realize
that, as consumers,
we are being used in
a game for profit in
which we profit nothing. The $85 billiona-year plastics indusSTUDENT
FORUM
try has sold us the idea
that plastic is the perfect packaging; it is convenient, non-1
breakable, squeezable and disposable.
What do plastic manufacturers mean by disposable? Although the plastics industry makes huge profits, the responsibility for disposal is ours, not theirs. And the fact that unnecessary plastic packaging will not decompose for at least 400
years is alarming indeed.
Consider this: we throw away 2.5 million plastic bottles,
2.25 million disposable diapers, and 250,000 plastic pens
every hour! While the numbers themselves are staggering,
when coupled with the reality that these products will remain
in the environment longer than our cars, our homes, our
children,t)ur grandchildren and their grandchildren, we realize the plastic industry's definition of "disposable" is not ours.
Once plastic refuse enters the environment it is not stagnant; rather it is an active threat, killing one to two million
seabirds and 100,000 marine mammals every year. These
innocent victims unknowingly ingest or become entangled in
our disposable plastics.
According to David Laist of the Marine Mammal Commission in Washington D.C., "Plastics may be as great a source
of mortality among marine mammals as oil spills, heavy
metals or toxic materials."
While this plastic threat can float in our oceans or waterways for a long time, it also washes up on our beaches, causing
an enormous litter problem.
On a typical day at Beacon's Beach in Leucadia, I found:
plastic milk bottles, soda bottles, six-pack holders, tampon
applicators, shampoo, mustard and catsup bottles, a bandage
box, suntan lotion, motor oil and brake fluid bottles, razors,
diapers, fast food plates and cups, etc., etc.
Now we must realize that the production of this refuse is
dangerous. TheEnvironmentalProtection Agency has a list of
20 chemicals, the production of which creates the greatest
amount of hazardous waste, and five of the top six are
chemicals used most often by the plastics industry. The
production of plastic generates hazardous waste, emits toxic
chemicals into the air, while also polluting our water.
Plastics are also dangerous to incinerate because of the
toxic fumes emitted. And while some plastic can be recycled,

A T HOUGHT;
"All of us could take a
lesson from the weather.
It pays no attention to
criticism."
N .DEKALB K UWANIS B EACON
With war in the Middle East waning (for
now), the national consciousness has returned
to domestic issues. Among these issues, deterioration in world market competitiveness has
American economists and politicians looking
toward Japan, and its economic strategy, as a
possible panacea to emulate for the nation's
economic affliction.
This elixir has unhealthy side-effects and
will only put the American economy into a
coma by widening the fissure between the rich;
who are increasing in political power, and the
middle-class; who, for the first time in US
history, have a lower standard of living than
their parents and are joining the ranks of the
poor; who are increasingly growing in quantity
and decreasing in political status as evidenced,
for example, by funding cuts in medical care.
Japan's industrial targeting, through such
bodies as the Ministry of International Trade
and Industry (MITI), has set up a dichotomy of
winners and losers. Import barriers, such as on
rice, force Japanese consumers to pay more for
the grain and gives farmers there an inflated
p rofit Itiscommonfora Japanese urban middleclass family to live in an apartment of less than
1,000 square feet, pay more for food and other
goods than their American counterparts, and
deal with a bureaucracy that forces them to buy
a new car every two or three years. Does the
American public need this kind of big-brother
government intrusion into its daily lives?
Additionally, M i l l ' s development policies
have often been wrong. In the early 1950s MITI
opposed Sony's attempt to go into transistorized goods, citing that the U.S. had cornered this

of plastics produced are recycled because, according to Solana Recyclers, the only market
for recycled plastic is beverage bottles.
Because of the mounting concerns of consumers over the hazards of plastic waste, the
industry is trying to sell us their solution in the
form of "biodegradable" plastic. This may indeed pose a new problem.
Because the same chemicals are used in the
production of "biodegradables," the hazards of
manufacturing and incineration remain the same.
"Biodegradable" plastics can take months to
break down, allowing plenty of time to suffocate or entangle wildlife and marine mammals.
Smaller pieces are also easier for animals to
ingest.
What is most frightening, is the health hazards they may create when broken down. This
concerns the EPA because, when plastics disintegrate into smaller pieces, there is more surface
area exposed from which heavy-metal pigments
and other toxics could leach out into the soil.
Allen Hershkowitz, a solid waste expert with
the Natural Resources Defense Council, has yet
another worry.
"These little pieces of plastic, which are
laced with heavy metals, are small enough to be
market. In the 1970s MITI opposed Honda's
attempt to venture into automobiles.
Do we need, in the United States, a governmental agency telling us, for example, that
towns such as Milwaukee, St. Louis and Golden,
Colorado should abandon beer production because the Germans have a monopoly on the
frothy brew?
What the U.S. needs is both capital-intensive, as well as knowledge-intensive, industries
if it is to b e a world-market leader. Support for
high technology does not mean we intend to
write-off heavy industry.
What it does mean is that the United States
should be the world leader in high technology
and therefore command an advantage in international trade. We saw in the war against Iraq
how handsome the dividend is when we invest
in high technology. We will never produce all
the steel we need, but we cannot afford to be
without a capacity to produce steel, if for no
other reason than strategic defense; at the same
time it would be unwise to invest in steel given
the nature of external competition.
Proponents of the Reagan/Bush economic
doctrine contend that by stimulating the economy through tax-breaks for industry, the consumer benefits by virtue of the trickle-down
effect. Their mantra-like dogma, they preach,
will stimulate the economy through tax reductions for business.
This will, in turn, fnotivate growth in industry, giving the group more capital to spend, and
with this growth in capital spending comes the
need for more workers. More people with jobs
means more spending on goods and services
which increases demand, and with an increase
in demand there will be a need to increase
supply which brings more growth in industry.
What the consumer may lose initially is made up
for ultimately with a decrease in unemployment
and more money in his pocket to spend.
What the proponents forget is that industry,
like Machiavelli's prince, only sows the economic seeds of growth only as much as the
amount of money to be reaped. Special-interest
groups continue to place pressure on Congress
to pass legislation that will favor them; what this
means for the rest of us, is less being spent on
education, police and fire protection, and other
public services, and more money being taken
out of our pay checks in order to cover the
decrease in assets resulting from tax breaks for
those in targeted industries.
The Japanese government has shown that
large amounts of public funds, along with larger
amounts of bureaucrats, are unnecessary for an
effective industrial policy. What makes industrial policy work is the competence of those in
charge, therigorof the analysis they apply, plus
realistic expectations of the market and a philosophy that transcends the American "what
can I do to survive this financial quarter" mindset and looks instead at long-term goals.
Industrial targeting places a false emphasis
on goods that consumers may not want; this
means that industrial capacity is sacrificed. In
short, all the manure in the world doesn't help
the grass grow if the trickle of trickle-down
economics wrings the middle-class dry.
breathed through the nose and mouth into the
lungs," he said.
So what can we do to halt this threat to our
health and our environment? First, we must stop
our cycle of consumption without conscience,
and realize the choices we make affect much
more than ourselves. We must consider the
permanence of the products we choose, while
re-using these products as many times as possible.
For instance, although a disposable diaper
can only be used once, a cloth diaper can be
reused hundreds of times. This ' use it once and
throw it out' attitude must be stopped.
Every time we grocery shop we are asked,
"Paper or plastic?" Although the best answer is
to bring your own reusable canvas or mesh bag,
the second best solution is to choose paper and
use it the next time you shop. Some supermarkets even pay when you bring back your bag to
be refilled.
Before we make a purchase we should consider whether the packaging can be recycled.
Because there are many products we cannot buy
in recyclable packaging, we must join others in
pressing our state and local governments to
consider a comprehensive measure to limit or
ban the use of non-recyclable plastic packaging,
while as individuals we must follow through in
our actions by recycling everything we can.
Mandatory recycling may also be necessary
because, although we have curbside recycling
in our communities, only 50 percent of the
homes participate. Recycling is everybody's
responsibility; therefore we must educate and
encourage our families, friends, and neighbors
to recycle with 100 percent participation as our
goal.
Although it may seem we have far to go in the
eradication of plastic packaging, let us not lose
sight of the tremendous impact the actions of an
individual can have. For, if we are to make a
change before the next anniversary of Earth
Day, it will take individuals like you and me,
taking small steps toward a better world. It is
only through the collection of many small steps
that any great distance can be travelled.

These craggy hills are ideal for

Exercise caution while climbing.

Blow Sands Hill itself is a wide

Ansel Adams display both good, bad
D EBBIE PUFFY/PIONEER
Few people could capture the natural world around them in photographs
as did Ansel Adams. Using the lens as
apaintbrush, he meticulously reflected
the natural world around him. With a
camera Adams was truly one with
nature.
Because his works teemed with
spontaneity and beauty, however,
Adams' view of the civilized world
seemed cold and contrived.
Because of this, Adams' two photographic displays now showing at
UCSD clash with each other; one is a
perfect example of the technology at
the UC campuses, and the other clearly
depicts nature in its truest form.
Adams was commissioned by the
then UC president in 1963 to take vast
amounts of pictures of the University's campuses in California. A
sample of these photographs is on
display in, 'Ansel Adams: Fiat Lux,'
which means, "Let there be l ight"
Every photograph seems to contain
either huge, white, stark buildings,
portraits or agriculture. None of the
"familiar" Adams photographs are
even alluded to in this display.
One portrait in particular, is a perfect example of the stiffness and separateness that seems to permeate these
commissioned photographs. This
photograph is named, 'Tony Delap,
Instructor, Art Department, 1967.
UCI.'
In the picture, Delap is seen posing
and holding his glasses in his hand as
if he is ready to speak. On his face is
a pensive, yet knowing mood. In front
of Delap is a table filled with geometric shapes, and in back of him there is
an array of amateurish art pictures.
This portrait is posed, rigid and totally without imagination or creativity.
The only photographs worth seeing in the 'Fiat Lux' display are the
desert research prints and the agricultural center prints. Otherwise, do not
even bother viewing this portion of
the exhibit.
The second display, 'The Museum
Set,' which represents photographs
Adams took in 1979, is well worth the
trip to the Art Gallery. In this display,
Adams creates masterpieces out of
the nature he views through his camera.
Each print is a delight and a wonder with trees, rocks, mountains, snow,
sand, clouds, waterfalls, or people.

Regents of the University of California now have the rights to this and other Adams-signed photographs.
As the viewer approaches the second
display, a large portrait of Adams and
his camera dominates the wall. Adams
is within every single photograph of
this display.
In 'The Museum Set,' a compelling portrait is, 'Spanish American

looks off into the distance. Shrouded
in a black veil, her face, with all its
tell-tale wrinkles, is encircled and
almost protected from the world.
Behind her is a bleached, worp,
wooden column, which is a reflection
of the woman's solid, aged face.
Another of Adams' photographs
within this display is named, 'Oak
Tree. Snowstorm. Yosemite National
Park, Ca. 1948.'
Standing majestically and powerfully in the middle of the photograph
is a solid oak tree, with its branches
energetically reaching for the sky.
Delicately resting upon the branches
of the oak is peaceful snow. Behind
this great oak is a small forest, but no
tree is as powerful as the oak.
This entire photograph gives one
the feeling of solitude and peace, and

looks as if walking into it would be
like walking into heaven.
Viewing Adams' photographs is
both calming and stimulating at the
same time. If you have never seen his
works, it is worth driving to the UCSD
campus to view this wonderful man's
prints.
However, skip the technological
display, 'Ansel Adams: Fiat Lux,*
and go directly into the second display, 'The Museum Set.' There are
some superb photographs within the
second display, and Adams is at his
best in these photographs.
These two collections will be on
display at the Mandeville Gallery on
the UCSD campus through April 7.

'Fiat Lux'
collection
on UC tour
For two decades, 605 signed Ansel
Adams photographs of the campuses
andresearch centers of the University
of California lay sequestered in a
University of California archive, virtually forgotten until last year.
After they were once again brought
to life, 100 of these never-beforeexhibited prints were curated for a
traveling exhibition called, 'Ansel
Adams: Fiat Lux.' The prints will be
shown with selections from a companion exhibitentitled, 'Ansel Adams:
The Museum Set,' through April 7, in
the Mandeville Gallery of the University of California, San Diego.
'The Museum Set' is a collection
of photographs owned by Pacific
Telesis Group. Adams created this
collection to represent the scope of
his l ife's work. He produced only a
limited number in this series before
his death in 1984. PacTel acquired
this set in 1984.
The origin of the 'Fiat Lux' set
occurred in 1963, when UC president
Clark Kerr commissioned Adams to
take extensive photographs of the UC
campuses for a book that would
commemorate the university's 100th
anniversary in 1968. The photographs
were taken at the University of California's nine campuses, natural reserve systems, research stations and
agricultural units during a four-year
span.
Adams exposed more than 6,000
negatives for the 'Fiat Lux' project.
From those, he selected the images to
be produced as signed fine prints. The
project was to be called 'Fiat Lux,'
which is the UC system's Latin motto
meaning "Let There Be Light."
In conjunction with the publication of the book, Kerr had planned a
series of public and private events for
the centennial, but the tumultuous
political situation at the Berkeley
campus, where the UC president's
office was located, caused the occasion to pass with little notice. As a
result, Adams' works were placed

�'NIGHTBREED' A BARKER, BUT
Darkman' sheds light on old theme
A lot of men think that women
have no taste in movies. They are
gobbled up in the misconception that
the only movies women like are the
mushy, gooey romantic flicks.
Not me.
Whenever I pop into the local
Blockbuster Video to make a selection, I put a gag on my date and
commence with the choosing. Most
of the time my dates find that I can last
through a tape that grosses out even
the machoest of guys. But queasiness
does not a good movie make. I do
have a sense for quality control too.
Whereas guy s usually pick movies
like 'Psycho Freaks From Hell* or
'Amazon Women of Venus,' I go for
more first-rate flicks like T h e Exorcist* or 'Poltergeist.'
Unfortunately, even I screw up
once in a while. On a recent excursion
to the video store, I was lured into
picking up the worst movie of 1990; a
Clive Barker horrible mess known as
'Nightbreed.' If not for my other
movie, Sam Raimi's 'Darkman,' the
evening would have been a complete
waste.
The
worst
t hing
a bout
'Nightbreed,' is that it was allowed to
reproduce on video cassette. Before
the movie begins, author-director
Clive Barker primes viewers with a
talk of how his movie "breaks the
conventions" of the horror genre.
It sure does.
By combiningpoor acting, a Swisscheesy script and laughable special
effects, Barker gives horror-flick
conventions the finger.
In the movie, Barker creates a

into the archives in the Bancroft Library, UC Berkeley.
The sequestered photographs were
tracked down only after James Harrod, manager of the UC Irvine Bookstore, became curious about the use of
several Adams' prints for a 1986 UC
publication. After he had located the
photographs at the Bancroft Library,
Harrod chaired a committee which
then selected 100 prints for an exhibition for the UC systems.
The 'Fiat L ux' collection had its
inaugural exhibition at the University
of California, Irvine, in January. Over
the next 16 months the two collections will travel to several UC campuses and to the Oakland Museum.

mythical world known as Midian,
where stupid-looking monsters live
in peace to escape the evil humans.
The movie's hero is Boone, played by
Craig Sheffer (from another turkey
'That Was Then, This Is Now') who
is convinced by the evil Dr. Decker,
David Cronenberg, that he is a crazed
serial killer.
I c an't believe that Cronenberg,
who directed such horror classics as
' Scanners,' ' Videodrome,' ' Dead
Ringers' and 'The Fly,' could act so
badly. Working, in the past, with such
polished performers as Jeff Goldblum
and Jeremy Irons, you'd think he could
have picked up acoupleof acting tips.
S heffer's love interest, played by
Anne Bobby ( 'Bom on the Fourth of
July'), is a slam in the face to womenkind. Here is a chick that makes more
stupid moves than Saddam Hussein.
Women like this in movies went out
of fashion when movies with sound

All o? this might have been excusable if one or two juicy special effects
were used to spice the film .up. Unfortunately, the creatures on screen were
about as realistic and clever as my

'Darkman,' on the other hand, is a
great romp and roll through the pages
of a comic book. It might not be the
most believable film ever made, but it
is one of the most fun.
Dr. Peyton Westlake, played by
Irish actor Liam Neeson ('Suspect'),
is just about to discover a new synthetic skin. He can get the skin formula to last for only an hour and a
monster verse bad people is corny and
overused. Yet, Barker has the audacity to tell the audience how clever he
is being. I saw better dialogue in the
1964 Japanese classic, 'Voyage Into
Space.'
If yourent'Nightbreed,' don'tturn
out the lights . .. you'll fall asleep. In
honor of its creator, I can honestly say
this film is a true Barker!
v
half, but on the verge of a breakthrough, his laboratory is obliterated
by a bunch of thugs led by Larry
Drake (Benny from 'L.A. L aw').
Left for dead, Westlake is found in
ariverand brought to a medical center
where doctors, (thinking they are
dealing with just an ordinary John
Doe) play around with his nervous
system. The result is a man who can
feel no pain and has an uncontrollable
temper.
So what we now have is a guy who
c an't be hurt, is mad as hell and has a
recipe for synthetic skin that lasts
about 90 minutes. Putting on the faces
of the villains, Westlake gets his
vengeance with superheroic style.
Neeson plays his role with nice
understated charm. I would have liked
to have seen more of him in the movie,
but Raimi kept his actor's exposure to
a minimum to add mystery.
Neeson's Westlake is a cross between 'The Phantom of the .Opera'
and 'Dr. Jeckyl and Mr. Hyde.' He
builds great empathy for this tragic
hero.
Westlake's principle love interest,
p layed by F rances M cDormand
('Mississippi Burning') is the kind of
woman I like to see in movies. In the
character of Julie, she is independent
and compassionate, without being
s marmy. U nlike t he b imbo in
'Nightbreed,' this woman is a class
a ct
Director Sam Raimi made some of
his great movie magic, that he demonstrated in 'The Evil Dead II,' reappear in his comic book story. The
effects are pretty cool with explosions and melting skin galor.
As a superhero movie, 'Darkman'
kicks the tights off 'Batman' because
it concentrates more on the action
than the dark undercurrents of the
p lot It is a movie that really sheds
some light on a old superhero theme.

What students should know about Syria
B Y ZACH SCHANZENBACH

Politicians have been saying

Syria is, but CSUSM students
don't realize how much i t
can directly affect t heir lives.
A fter weeks o f discussing the matter? i t looks as
though Syria, Russia and
the USA have reached an
agreement regarding Syria's chemical weapons. Regardless, this seems t o
have eased l ittle tension.
The main idea o f the deal,
according
to
President
Barack Obama, was simple
and really straightforward:
t o " mov[e] Syria's chemical
weapons under international c ontrol so t hat they may
ultimately be destroyed."
Anyone w ho has, been
keeping tabs on t he news
knows w hat Syria has been
up t o w ith its civil w ar
and
chemical

Syrian president Bashar
al-Assad headed a shocking
chemical

attack on Syrian rebels, killing 1,429 people.

questionnaire t hat measured
how much they considered
life and t heir personal situation a blessing. They were
also given a health survey
t hat measured t heir psychological and physical health.
They were examined f or
t heir attitudes on healthy activities, in regards t o n utrition,
exercise, personal well-being,
social well-being and drug

interviewed on t heir w illingness t o seek medical help
f or health concerns using
hypothetical case scenarios.
In addition, t heir person-
alities were taken into consideration, rating them on
levels of extroversion, agreeableness, conscientiousness,
neuroti-cism and openness.
The researchers cite previous studies, including how
conscientiousness and optimism have been linked t o
better health, and b etter behaviors that p romote health.
"Grateful individuals tend
t o r eport greater vitality and
agency, along w ith less anxiety. In addition, gratitude is
linked t o traits indicative o f
better physical health, including
conscientiousness,
emotional stability and optimism," the r eport said.
Previous
studies
have
utilized regular diaries in
which participants w rite
down something they are
thankful for, and review
i t at a later time. Various
bloggers and w riters have
encouraged similar ideas,
either daily o r weekly.
But why should CSUSM
students really even care
about being more optimistic
o r grateful? Many could argue t hat doing so makes no
major impact on themselves.
However, i t is suggested
t hat thoughtful gestures, the
giving of one's resources o r
volunteering t ime have a
positive affect on the giver.
Showing gratitude could
include making small unexpected changes, such as
w riting a thank you note
t o someone, tipping m ore
o r even just treating, a
friend t o lunch o r coffee.
In a June article by The
Harvard Business Review
entitled H ow Money A ctually

Happiness,
Elizabeth Dunn and Michael N orton cited multiple
moneywise parties, such as
Google and W arren Buffet.
They, and Buffet, encouraged
t o "give as a way t o enhance
one's emotional well-being."
"Spending even a few dollars on someone else can
trigger a boost in happiness.
In one study, w e found t hat
asking people t o spend as
l ittle as $5 on someone else
over the course o f a day made
t hem happier at t he end o f
that day than people w ho
spent t he $5 on themselves,"
Dunn and N orton said.

To CSUSM student, Anne
Hall, another war could
f urther divide the nation's
resources f rom crtical issues o n its o wn soil. Hall is a
veteran o f the United States
Coast Guard, w ho served as

" The plight in Syria is a

Mary Green, a member of

This summer, Green and
65 members o f t he Eastside Christian Church in

The s hort ¿ rip made a
large impact by connecting w ith over 1,200 children in amazing ways.
The group built a new
kitchen, culinary school
and opened a new medical
clinic at a local boarding
school. Green spent most
o f her t ime assisting at t he
medical clinic, w here she
saw over 275 children w ho
all had similar symptoms.
T he children w ere hungry,
dehydrated and suffer-
ing f rom local air pollution.
Green was overwhelmed
w ith t he feeling t hat t here
was nothing she could do
t o help them feel better.
W hile patients waited
in line t o be seen by t he
doctors, nurses and EMTs,
Green taught the children
how t o play leapfrog, charades and tag. Green also
prayed w ith the children, and
she even had the o pportunity
t o play her s port w ith them.
Green's favorite p art o f t he
soccer experience was seeing a few kids w ho had cleats
offer t o give t heir friends one
o f them. Some even played
in sandals. Watching t he kids
express joy while playing
t he game was very touching. A t t he end o f t he game,
t he volunteers gave each
participant a plastic medal.
A few days later, Green
saw some o f the soccer
kids. They showed her t hat
they w ere wearing t heir
medal under t heir clothes
and had never taken i t off.
A very special p art o f t he
t rip was when Green m et
a l ittle girl named Grace.
She had been sponsored by
t he Green family f or quite
some t ime. Green taught
Grace h ow t o blow a bubble w ith gum and h ow t o

This t rip made Green realize how w e all take t he

also confirmed h er desire t o

The f irst

Many do n ot realize why

breakfast n ot only can give
you m ore energy, but i t can
also help c ontrol weight
and improve performance.
Studies have shown t hat
by eating a healthy breakfast, you are enhancing y our

It is i mportant t o realize
t hat eating breakfast does

Protein helps t o make

t hat people w ho consume a

It's especially i mportant

member at t he State University o f N ew York (SUNY)
Albany f or nine years, but I
wanted t o move back t o
California t o be closer t o my
family. In 2001,1 was hired as
t he f irst tenure-line faculty
member in Women's Studies.
Q: W hat classes do you
usually teach?
A : I teach a variety o f interdisciplinary courses (ID)
about t he politics o f culture.
For example, this semester I'm teaching a course
on deconstructing Disney
Animated Films. I also teach
courses about education as
social transformation, social
change movements, f ilm and
media, and I'll be teaching t he
new course on H arry Potter
f olklore and culture in t he
spring.
Q: W hat do you like
about teaching?
A : I made t he decision t o
pursue a Ph.D. and become
a university professor because I love w orking w ith
students and I love t o teach.
For me, education is t he key
t o changing t he w orld and
making i t a b etter place, one
in which all people are valued and protected. Much o f
my w ork focuses on social
justice, and all my teaching
includes a feminist and social
justice perspective.
Q: W hat do you hope
students learn from
taking your classes?
A : First, I w ant students
to learn t o ask t he deep and
often t roubling questions
about social structures and
hierarchies o f privilege and
power. Critical thinking skills
are central t o my courses. I
also w ork w ith students t o
develop t heir sense o f curiosity and self-worth, and
t heir determination t o give
back t o t he community.

What to expect studying abroad
HP
HH
Why Spain's education is 'all or nothing'
B Y GLORIA MAGALLANES
S TAFF W RITER
C ulture s hock is t he
phrase
t hat
comes
to
m ind w hen p eople ask
me
a bout
my
e xperience abroad last semester.
I believe t hat in o rder t o
go abroad, students s hould
be aware t hat i t takes a
l ittle
m ore e ffort
t han
meets t he eye. Students
need t o prepare t hemselves f or t he a djustment
o f living in a n ew c ountry.
T he process o f applying
isn't as t edious as students
may presume. As l ong as
y ou t urn in all t he r equired
p aperwork, y ou are f ree t o
begin y our p reparation t o
live abroad. Many students
may also be c oncerned
a bout t he p rice o f studying abroad, assuming i t is
v ery expensive. In reality,
i t is n ot as bad as i t seems.
I was relieved t o f ind o ut
t hat t he p rojected expenses w ere a ccurate w ith my
stay a broad in Valladolid,
Spain. F or t hose receiving FAFSA, y ou are f ortunate enough t o g et some
o f y our expenses covered.
T here are many o ther f inancial aid o pportunities if
y ou are lacking funds. T he
G lobal Education O ffice o ffers a v ariety o f scholarships
t o apply f or, and t here is always t he o ption o f accepting
subsidized loans if necessary.
T he amazing t hing a bout
s tudying in Spain is t hat
i t is a ffordable. H owever, s tudents need t o learn
h ow t o manage t heir bank
acscount and budget. Students should save t heir
m oney f or traveling w ith
f riends o n t he weekends.
A merican students also
have an advantage, being
t hat t hey are a native English
speaker. T here are many l ocals w illing t o pay t o have
English speakers t utor t hem
in t he evenings, and t hat
e xtra cash can be helpful.
T he u niversity system in
Europe is v ery d ifferent f rom
t he A merican educational
system. Spanish professors
d on't assign w eekly h omew o r k assignments, t ake r oll
call, c ount anything as p articipation o r give m idterms. Students are f ree f rom h omew o r k t he e ntire semester.
A lthough t his m ight seem
like heaven f or many, i t
d oesn't really feel like heaven in t he last weeks leading u p t o t he final exam.
T he professors rely solely
o n t he student's final exam
grade, as t hey have n othing
else t o base t heir scores
o ff o f. Talk a bout pressure.
T he way t hey teach is different as w ell. Professors
r arely use PowerPoints o r
a w hiteboard t o help w ith
t heir lessons. T hey o nly
give lectures. Spanish students also have a d ifferent
m ethod o f w riting notes.
Instead o f b ullet p oints o r
summaries o f t he lectures,
t hey w rite t he e ntire lecture o ut, w ord by w ord f rom
w hat t he p rofessor says.
T here really is n othing
similar a bout CSUSM and
t he u niversity I a ttended in
Spain. W e are a ccustomed
t o having o ur u niversity l ocated o n t he same p roperty. In Spain, t he u niversity
is d ivided i nto buildings according t o t he area o f study
and t hey are called faculties.
These faculties are dispersed a round t he city. Students w on't see themselves
going t o t he same faculty
as a business m ajor if t hey
are
studying
languages.
A lthough t his may seem
strange, in r eality i t is beneficial. Students g et t o k now
e veryone in t heir faculty
and i t gives t hem t he o pportunity t o m eet local
Spanish students in a t ightnit e nvironment. T he cafeteria ladies even seem
t o enjoy t he presence o f
s tudents'
familiar
faces.
A lthough all t his i nformation m ight seem like a t urnoff, believe m e w hen I say I
w ould d o i t all o ver again.
Maria Lopez, a f ellow CSUSM
s tudent, r ecent r eturnee, as
w ell as my c ompanion and
r oommate in Spain, also r eally enjoyed h er e xperience.
" I absolutely loved i t, I feel
t hat as students w e s hould
take e very o pportunity t hat
w e have t o g row as i ndividuals and studying abroad is
o ne o f t hem," Lopez said.
Studying and living in a
d ifferent c ountry is such an
u nforgettable and impacting
e xperience. T he p eople o ne
meets, t he places o ne sees
and t he o verall e nvironment
is s omething t hat w ill become a p art o f t hat p erson
forever. Students w ill gain
g reater understanding a bout
o ther c ultures and customs.
If y ou are a s tudent t hinking o f going abroad, d on't l et
t he o pportunity pass y ou by.

E DITOR-IN-CHIEF
Cal State San Marcos is
creating new divisions of current colleges to help equally
distribute and distinguish academic idisciplines on campus.
University officials have
recognized the need to restructure the current composition
of colleges to help meet the
need for growth and development in the university's future.
Currently the College of Arts
and Sciences (CoAS) fosters
more than 50 percent of the degree programs available on campus, including 25 Bachelor of
Arts and Bachelor of Science programs and 32 minors. The new
split would divide science and
math disciplines into the new College of Science and Mathematics
and further divide the other CoAS
departments into College of Arts,
Humanities and Social Sciences.
Further advancements include the new addition of College of Education, Health and
Human Services that will house
Education, Nursing, Kinesiology and Human Development.
The College of Business Administration will not be affected by any of the new changes.
"The restructuring is rearranging departments and schools
and colleges, in the case of Nursing and Education, in a way that
best positions the university for
moving forward," said David
Barsky, Associate Vice President of Academic Programs.
"I am confident that this will
position us well to leverage our
strengths and create a stronger impact with our programs.

�ASI UTAH EXCURSION ALLOWS STUDENTS TO SEEK
FUN, THRILLS DURING SPRING BREAK
r
J ULIAN K ERSTETTER
LAYOUT E DITOR
For most college students
nowadays, Spring Break poses
a significant conundrum. On the
one hand, who doesn't want to get
away from the rigors of school
and go and enjoy vacation time
in a beautiful and relaxing location f ar from home? On the other
hand, who wants to fork out the
time, energy and money needed
to make a trip like that possible?
With gas prices looming at about
$4 a gallon and tuition skyrocketing along with them, chances
are, Spring Break with no extra costs sounds nice and much
more manageable. However,
vacation doesn't need to break
the bank or complicate your free
time. This semester, a handful of
students took their one week of
freedom into their own hands and
took off on an adventure that any
outdoor-lover would envy: an
outdoor excursion trip to Utah.
Sponsored by ASI, CSUSM's
Alternative Spring Break program allows students on a budget to have fun and get out with
some friends without the stress
of high costs and major planning.
One of this semester's Spring
Break programs, a Utah excursion, found around 14 CSUSM
students hiking and biking their
way along scenic canyons and
breathtaking desert terrain for
seven days and six nights. The
students, along with Brian Daw-
son from the University Village
Apartments (UVA) and Hugo
Lecomte from Campus Recreation as their guides, journeyed
to the famous Utah hotspots
Zion Canyon, Bryce Canyon and
Arches as well as participated in
a mountain bike ride in Moab.
For those of you who haven't
heard of these recreational areas,
Bryce and Zion Canyons are two
national parks located in southern Utah while Arches National
Park is located in eastern Utah.
Bryce and Zion Canyons, while
certainly not as big or as amazingly vast as their often compared-to counterpart the Grand
Canyon, offer nature lovers awe
inspiring vistas of jutting rock
formations and sweeping cliffs,
all set against the majestic back-
drop of the Utah desert. Arches
National Park, in comparison,
offers exactly what its name
implies, a look at some of the
most unique and brilliant rock
arch formations in the world.
Altogether, these three parks are
some of the most beautiful and
naturally thrilling locations in
the southwestern United States.
A trip to the canyons of Utah
is unforgettable, and for this particular trip, everything, including
accommodations (and for those
of you who prefer not to sleep on
the ground, all accommodations
were indoors), only cost each
student who participated $200. In
the words of one of the campers,
Whitney Brown, a senior majoring in Kinesiology, the trip was an
"absolute steal and totally worth
it." Brown also commented that
"it was %ne of the most memorable trips [she l as] been on. It
w^s a Iife\changing experience
and absolutely unforgettable."
For those already settled into
the final few months of this semester, keep in mind that this
time, next year, you could be
returning refreshed and renewed
from an alternative Spring Break
sponsored by ASI. Hopefully
now you know that it won't
leave you broke, will give you
a chance to spend time with
some friends, and will leave
you refreshed and renewed before returning back to the grind.

DORM STUDENTS BUILD HOMES IN MIAMI OVER SPRING BREAK
RYAN D O W N S
P RIDE STAFF W RITER
Any student will tell you that
the best part of the second semester is, of course, the part without
any school. It is a known fact that
most of the country's students
have regarded Spring Break as an
eagerly anticipated opportunity
for surfing, sports and general
relaxation. It is a week during
which students can engage in far
more activities than are usually
available during winter and can
enjoy a taste of what is yet to
come over summer break, albeit
at a more manageable temperature. However, at CSUSM's own
Univesity Village Apartments
(UVA), not everyone went home
for the break; as part of an alternative Spring Break program, a
large group of students from the
dorms volunteered to work with
Habitat for Humanity, building homes in Miami, Florida.
These select few students
worked long, hard hours, building houses for low-income families in the Miami area. According to Marcos Villanueva, one
of the students who participated
in the trip, "we'd wake up at 6
[a.m.], work from 7:30 [ ajn.] to
around 3:30 [p.m.]." The group
worked on a different portion
of the house each day. '"Some-
times we did dry wall, we did
insulation, floor boards, a lot of
different stuff," James Sanchez,
another student, said. "We didn't
finish any houses, but we prepared it [s/c] for the blitz days,"
Villanueva elaborated, "basically, we built the foundation,
which took about four days, and
Habitat [for Humanity] is going
to swiftly finish the houses over
the course of 10 days." Overall,
the group played a crucial part
in helping Habitat for Humanity, creating houses for those who
desperately need them. "It's lifechanging," Sanchez said, "because it opens your eyes to new
experiences and other problems
that are going on this country."
The experience, however, was
not all work. "We went sightseeing, we went to alligator
swamps, and we went fanboating," Sanchez said. Villanueva
added, "Although we had to work
a lot we needed some free time.
We saw famous sites like "Miami
Ink." One of the nights they had
a party for the workers, just to
say thanks." In addition to giving
back to the community, the group
managed to have fun in Miami, making the experience that
much more rewarding. Overall,
the group worked hard, but the
payoff was great. They not only
gave back to the community; they
had a lot of fun in the process.

Interested in seeing spring's
early beauty? Why not enjoy a few hours at the Carlsbad Flower Fields—50 acres
of brightly blooming flowers.
The fields, which overlook the
Pacific Ocean, are filled with
colorful Ranunculus blooms.
Rows of these flowers carpet the
rolling hillside, creating a feast
for the eye and camera lens.
Located in the heart of Carlsbad, the Flower Fields are open
seven days a week, from 9 a.m. to
6 p.m. and are open to the public
until May 8. Prices for the Flower
Fields are $10 for adults, $9 for
seniors age 60, and above, $5 for
children ages three to 10 and children younger than two are free.
The Carlsbad Flower Fields
offer a variety of activities for
families, couples, and individuals. The strategically planted
American Flag of Flowers, which
sits in a 300 by 170 foot plot,
contains flowers that were planted to resemble an American flag.
The fields also annually set up a
unique sweet pea maze in which
visitors can navigate through a
fragrant and colorful maze of "old
fashioned" sweet pea blossoms.
If you are interested in celebrat-
ing Christmas during spring, the
Carlsbad Flower Fields also hosts
a 1,500 square foot poinsettia
greenhouse to display over 20 unusual and rare varieties of poinsettias. Visitors can also learn the history of the amazing holiday plant.
The fields also offer a few nonflower related activities including
the Carlsbad Mining Company,
where visitors can find and polish gem stones using an actual
miner's method. Santa's Playground, which was once part of
the Lake Arrowhead theme park
"Santa's Village," now has a
new home on the Flower Fields
and allows the public to enjoy
historic whimsical play houses
and giant colorful mushrooms.
According to their website,
theflowerfields.com, the Carlsbad Flower Fields' peak blooming period lasts from March
through May. Don't miss the opportunity to capture the beautiful
blossoms with a Canon photography workshop on April 17. The
Flower Fields also hosts music
festivals and craft fairs; check
out the "Special Events" page of
the website for more information.

school, students may find they
need help putting pen to paper.
The" CSUSM Writing Center
is the perfect resource for students who need help editing, revising or brainstorming ideas.
Located on the bottom floor
of the Kellogg Library in room
1103, the Writing Center offers
free tutoring help from certified
consultants, many of which are
advanced Literature and Writing students at CSUSM. For ten
consecutive semesters, Writing
Center consultants have undergone training through the College
Reading and Learning Association (CRLA) in order to provide
students with the best writing
tutors on campus. Tutoring ses-
sions are available by appointment Monday - Thursday 9 a.m.
- 6 p.m., Friday 9 a.m. - noon,
and during walk-in hours Sundays at the UVA from 6 - 8 p.m.
The Writing Center's mission
is to "be a welcoming learning
environment where certified studentconsultants offer constructive guidance to all writers of all
levels at all stages of the writing
process" as seen on its website,
csusm.edu/writingcenter. Consultants help students work on
their pieces—whether it is a short
essay or Master's thesis—by
"reviewing the prompt, asking
guiding questions, and providing non-judgmental feedback."
By working one-on-one or in a
small group, students can gain
control of their written words
and succeed in their classes.
As the semester accelerates
into its final weeks, the Writing
Center'invites students to attend
workshops that will help ease
writing anxieties. These U-hour
workshops take place in the Writing Center from noon - 1p.m. on
Tuesdays. Today's workshop will
focus on "How to Write for Specific Audiences." The workshop
on April 12 will help with timed
writing assignments in a lesson
titled "Writing Under Pressure:
The In-Class Essay and Essay Exams ." April 19 will feature a work- shop designed to teach students
strategies for learning on their
own, titled "Be Your Own Tutor."
For additional information
about the Writing Center's resources for students as well as the
U-hour workshops, visit csusm.
edu/writingcenter. With a little
help, CSUSM students can excel
in all modes of writing from initial brainstorming to final proofreading. Friendly, knowledgeable
consultants are ready and waiting
to guide students on their way.

CONTRIBUTOR
At the Mangrum Track & Field
MEN'S GOLF JUMPS I Invitational, Brian Clay didn't intend to blow the field out of the
TO #17
water, but the crowd believed he
would. Anthony Harbor wouldn't
have any of that. After all, he
intended to impress fellow athletes from his alma mater, too.
Clay, the reigning Olympic
gold medalist in the Decathlon,
and a graduate of Azusa Pacific
University, arrived with athletes
from the school on Saturday,
saying he "just needed to get a
meet in." Clay competed in the
discus throw, an event he holds
the decathlon record in, as well
as the 110-meter hurdles alongside- Anthony Harbor. Harbor,
who graduated from CSUSM last
year, ran stride for stride with
Clay, hurdling over the obstacles
in unison—but just far enough
Cal State San Marcos men'I
golf jumped up 6 spots in this
week's NAIA National Rankings, settling in at #17 after
debuting last week at #23 j
Coach Greg Hutton's Cougars, who were unranked in the
preseason, capped off a very
strong regular season with a
7th place finish out of 16 teams
at the Cal Baptist Spring Break
Intercollegiate in Primm, NV
on March 21-22. At that event,
CSUSM finished right in the
middle of a field loaded with
ranked teams, placing ahead of
numerous teams including Holy
Names University (#13) and the
University of Victoria (#21).
The Cougars* are preparing
to compete at the A .II. Conference Championships in Victoria, Texas starting Apr. 25.
behind to see Clay finish ahead
of him at 14.10 to his 14.24.
"It was the first three hurdles," Harbor said. "He was
way 'more explosive than I
was. He had a better center of
gravity. He's a great athlete."
London awaits Clay in 2012,
and with the summer games
in sight, the two-time medalist
(he won the silver in 2004) has
been training rigorously to regain his fitness after a devastating hamstring injury ended his
World Championship bid in 2009.
"[The 110-meter race] was
sloppy, but it's thefirstrace, so you
don't expect much more than that.
You can't expect too much. You've
just got to get your feet wet."
When sloppy running equals
first place at a competitive college
track meet, another Olympic gold
medal seems reasonable. Clay
didn't even win the discus throw,
which might be his best event,
placing second behind Azusa Pa-
cificfreshmanBeckwith Brad. But
Clay wasn't there to win, anyway.
"Hearing the gun for the first
time, getting in the [discus throwing] ring and not having a foul
for the first time...that kind of
stuff can kind of play with you a
little bit, so you just want to get
in there and deal with it mentally and emotionally," he said.
For those who were there to
win, there were plenty of opportunities. CSUSM sophomore Krystle Osby flew past the field to win
the 100-meter dash with a time of
12.23, with sophomore teammate
Aimee Rassavong finishing third.
The Cougar women dominated the
pole vault, with Calah Ayer, the
winner with a 3.19 meter jump,
followed by teammates Kelsey
Monticalvo, Meghan Freund
and Natalie Eisenberg gathering
a clean sweep of the 1-4 spots.
The one-mile invitational
run polished off the evening and
contained a field of only five
runners hand-picked for a close
race. CSUSM's Brett Campfield
went toe-to-toe with BSK Running Club's David Edwards before finishing less than a second
behind, with the crowd cheering wildly behind the athletes.
The day belonged to Clay,
though. Everyone on the premises knew it, and had they not
known he was there when they
arrived, they were soon informed of his presence over the
loudspeakers in the announcer's
emphatic voice. Clay brought a
small crowd to the discus throw,
a sight usually unseen at college
Track & Field meets. When the
champion took his mark on the
hurdles track, the crowd buzzed
and flashbulbs exploded. For
Harbor, it meant an opportunity
to represent for the home crowd.
"This is my school," Harbor said, a gleam in his eye.
"You have to make it look
easy, even though it's not."
WOMEN'S GOLF
SHINES AT CSUMB
Playing their final "regular
season" round of the spring,
Coach Cindy Naval's CSUSM
women's golf squad went out
on a high note, shooting an outstanding 317 to finish 11th place
at the Lady Otter Invitational.
Hosted by CSU Monterey
Bay at Black Horse GC in Seaside, CA, the tournament featured a 22-team field loaded
with NCAA Division I and II
schools. CSUSM was just one
of three NAIA teams compet-=
ing, but shot rounds of 325 and
317 for a total of 642 to place
ahead of 11 NCAA teams. Nova
Southeastern won the event with
a team total of 597, with the host
school placing second at 614.
Linnel DeVilla continued
what has been a great spring
for her with an excellent round
of even par 73 on Tuesday.
Combined with Monday's 79,
DeVilla shot a 152 at the tournament, tying her for 11th place.

Recently ranked #4 by the
National Association of Intercollegiate Athletics, the Cal State
San Marcos women's softball
team was ready to give it their
all and grab two wins*during a
double header vs. the 12th-ranked
Columbia College Cougars.
Shortstop, Shanti Poston,
made the first official big play
of the game by tagging the Columbia runner and closing out
the top of the 1st inning. At the
top of the 2nd, Columbia scored
3rd consecutive runs on one hit
due to a few small errors and a
wild throw to the catcher, placing the San Marcos Cougars
down by three early in the game,
By the beginning of the 3rd,
San Marcos began to find their
groove defensively by only allowing one hit for the remainder
of the
game. Midway through
the 3rd, pitcher Brenna Sandberg began, as head coach Dave
Williams said, "to shake the rust
off" after nearly 12 days without
playing a single game. Sandberg
ended the first game by striking
out 9 Columbia College batters.
As the remaining innings began to pass by, the fans, players,
and even coaches feared a loss,
At the bottom of the 7th and final inning, the CSUSM softball
team knew here would be its last
chance to shake things up and
get 3 runs to tie or 4 runs to win.
Derrisha Lacey stepped up to
the plate, hit the ball just out of
the reach of the third baseman,
and cutting the lead to 3-1. With
the winning run on base, Poston
smacked the ball to center earning a base hit. Due to Poston's
hit, the centerfielder dropped the
ball and allowed pinch runner
Brittney Guy to beat the throw

players, coaches and fans fuming
at the umpires over several missed

NINTENDO'S LATEST IN TECHNOLOGY: THE 3DS
A LOOK AT THE VIDEO GAME INDUSTRY'S NEWEST INNOVATION
C HRIS G IANCAMILLI
M EDIA M ANAGER
3D is now in the palm of your
hand, since Nintendo recently released their new 3DS handheld
gaming system. The 3DS features
3D without the need for any special glasses, as well as a number of upgrades to the system.
A new slider pad allows you
to control characters with an analog stick much like you would
on a home console. The system also features a new built-in
motion sensor and gyroscope,
giving gamers the ability to
manipulate the game through
tilting and shaking the 3DS.
The system has two screens,
much like its predecessor, the DS.
However, the top screen is an adjustable 3D screen and the bottom
is a touch screen. The 3D slider to
the right of the top screen allows
users to change the depth of the 3D.
The 3DS. comes packed with
11 applications. The camera app
takes 3D pictures with the system's dual cameras mounted on
the back of the device. The "Face
Raiders" app uses photos of people you've taken and places their
faces on in-game enemies. The
3DS also features a "Mii Maker"
app, so users can create avatars,
or "Miis," usable in games such
as "PilotWings Resort." Gamers
may also place the Miis in the
"StreetPass Mii Plaza," which
exchanges Mii data with other
3DS systems in the area. The
Nintendo eShop also returns, in a
future update, to allow gamers to
purchase classic Nintendo titles.
Currently, the 3DS has 16
games available for purchase including "Super Street Fighter IV,"
"Madden NFL 11," "PilotWings
Resort," "The Sims 3" and "Lego
Star Wars ID: The Clone Wars."
Nostalgic gamers can also expect the release of updated older
games over the next few months
such as "Legend of Zelda: Ocarina of Time," "Metal Gear Solid:
Snake Eater" and "Star Fox 64."
The Nintendo 3DS system currently costs $249.99,
with games priced at $39.99
at most electronics retailers.

CSU Northridge
Hopes to Open by
Feb. 14
Valentine's Day looks to be the opening day of spring semester for earthquake
damaged CSU Northridge, which has suffered an estimated $150 million in damage
from the 6.6 January 17th Northridge quake.
Park o n ^ i f i l i i l l
There were no injuries or fatalities on
the campus, but the building damage is extensive. The library and science buildings suffered significant damage. The South Library
which houses the campus computing center
has been condemned and Science Buildings 1
and 2 experienced chemical fires. The 2,447parking structure is destroyed. Most of the
University Park Apartments are stable but
will require repairs before students can move
back in.
Because so many buildings are not
safe, the campus will rent nearly 300portable
trailers to use for classroom and faculty o ffice
sp&ce. Gov. Wilson also said that they will
rent nearby offices and use other colleges and
schools for classes.
The Latino Association of Faculty and
Staff and the Associated Students of CSU
San Marcos have joined hands in providing
disaster relief to our neighbors, friends and
relatives in the Los Angeles area.
According to CSUSM's Chief of Police, Arnold P. Trujillo, a grand total of $ 1,227
was collected. The money will be donated to
the American Red Cross with the request that
"this money be used to assist the earthquake
victims in the Los Angeles area," says Trujillo.
Chief Trujillo and Public Safety Officers Bob Wheeler and Dave Ross were at the
scene the Monday morning of the earthquake
offering assistance to local law enforcement
at the Northridge campus site.
Our thoughts and prayers are with all
the people in the Los Angeles area.

Campus Survey to be
Conducted
CSUSM will be participating
in the systemwide survey of students, the fourth Student Needs and
Priorities Survey (SNAPS-94).
There have been three surveys prior
to SNAPS-94; the last was conducted in 1989. All CSU campuses
participated in SNAPS-89 with the
exception of San Diego State. All
20 campuses will be participating
in SNAPS-94.
In administering the survey,
each campus will follow a uniform
procedure which consists of surveying a sample of students in randomly selected courses during the
middle of the Spring. At CSUSM
we will start the survey process in
late February or early March. We
will survey about 750 students in
order to submit at least 500 completed surveys.
Surveys are submitted to the
Chancellor's Office and the responses are used to develop a
systemwide report which helps the
CSU present an accurate picture of
its student body in a public and
systematic way. In 1989 800 copies
of the SNAPS report were distrib-

uted nationally to public and private entities. Some of the information in the Executive Summary of
the 1989 SNAPS report indicates
that over two-thirds of CSU students were also employed and a
majority of respondents were classified as "commuter students."
Among the problems impeding students' efforts to achieve their educational goals, personal factors were
cited more frequently than institutional factors; financial problems
were ranked most often by 44 percent of the respondents. Among 18
potential campus reforms, the option to "offer summer courses at
regular fees" was chosen by 40 percent of the sample; the second most
popular reform was to "improve the
parking situation."
Each campus will receive a
dataset of the responses submitted
by its students so that analysis can
take place campus by campus. Responses are, of course, confidential
and data will be reported only in
aggregate form. The CSUSM data
should help all of us better understand the needs and opinions of our
students.
Institute
The Writing Center staff wants to
welcome all returning and new students
to a friendly place that helps to advance
written academic assignments—the Writing Center. The doors opened Feb. 9 at
9 AM.
The tutor corps of the Writing
Center offers a skilled group of students
whose foundation in writing theory and
practices come from English494 (Theory
and Practice of College Writing). The
tutors aim to foster academic quality
writing from the painless perspective of
a good friend who is interested in advaDcirig meaningful written analysis and
creative expression. Students at any
phase of an assignment—brain-storming, editing, revision or final draft inspection—are all part of the tutorial staff s
field of experience.
Please feel free to come by the
Writing Center and see how we can help.

a category of immediate attention rather than
focusing on the construction of prisons as a
way to remedy crime. He responded, "As
Governor, I 've opened five new prisons.
Tonight, I propose that we offer $2 billion
worth of bonds to build six more. There will
be those who protest such costs. They'll
complain that they would prefer to spend the
money on higher education rather than more

Fundraising Efforts
President Bill W. Stacy announced the
appointment of Joseph E. Bear as Acting
Vice President for Institutional Advancement. The adoption of CSU Trustee policy
asks each CSU campus to raise—over time—
in excess of 10 percent above and beyond its
state funds appropriation.
Mr. Bear, who recently retired as a
Senior Vice President from Hughes Aircraft
and as Chair of San Diego's United Way,
will join us for the remainder of the fiscal
year in the manner of United Way's "loaned
executive." That is, he will donate his time
to the university at no salary or benefits.
Bear was asked to accept the title of a
position recommended by the Chancellor
and adopted by the Trustees in their action
last week. He will be asked to assist the
university in its push during the remainder of
the year to meet its 1994 fundraising goals

Computer Competency
Requirement—source of
student concern
K arin Foster
Staff Writer
CSUSM has a requirement that like the
writing requirement, is unique from other state
universities—the Computer Competency Requirement (CCR). CSUSM requires that every
student fulfill this requirement before the end
of their second semester at CSUSM. Originally, this requirement coordinated with
CSUSM's writing requirement. Faculty wanted
to be assured that students knew how to use a
word processor and could apply this skill in
producing the 2,500 word writing assignment
required in every class. The second semester
deadline meant that students would be computer literate early in their studies at CSUSM.
Mary Atkins, Labs and Computer Competency Coordinator, explained that students can
fulfill the CCR in a variety of ways. Students
can take an approved course at a community
college, take a computer exam, or take a computer course at CSUSM that fulfills the requirement. Before taking a computer course at a
community college, students should check with
Admissions and Records for a list of all applicable classes. Those students wishing to fulfill
the CCR through an exam can also take a
workshop to help them prepare for the exam.
Many students opt to take a computer class
here at CSUSM. This semester the Computer
Science Department offered 14 classes that met
the CCR requirement. Of these, nine sections
of CS 304 were offered. This class examines
computer issues and provides basic computer
skills.
However, not all students have been completely satisfied with these computer classes.
Students who have taken CS 304 do not feel the
class has made them computer literate. The
semester divides basic computer knowledge
with word processing, spreadsheets, database
and computer programming. The amount of
material covered in one semester does not al-
low the student to gain ample skills in any
specific area. Atkins explained that CS 304
does not aim to make students computer
literate. "Hopefully, students will take what
they learn and run with it." CS 304 acts as an
introductory course which offers students
basic computer instruction. Students who
had little computer experience will still need
to develop their computer skill after completing this course.
Other students have voiced concerns about
classes having more students than available
computers. Similar to learning to drive, learning to use a computer requires hands-on experience. Students enrolled in computer
classes feel their computer time in class is
restricted. Atkins explained that this situation is typical at universities stating that "the
concept of one computer for every person is
unusual." Students taking computer classes
should expect to spend time in the computer
lab or with their home computer in order to
strengthen their skills.
Those students who have not fulfilled the
CCR should be aware that this requirement
must be completed by the end of their second
semester. For those students who make a
strenuous effort to completely avoid computers, Atkins advises, "Don't procrastinate.
People should not feel intimidated by the
Computer CompetencyRequirement. This
school makes a conscious effort to help people
pass; however, this does not mean waiving
the requirement."
The original goal of computer literacy for
all students by their second semester at
CSUSM may have been a little optimistic.
However, most students will have at least
developed alittle computer knowledge. They
should know how to turn one on.

LOVE CAREFULLY DURING
VALENTINE'S WEEK
S usan M endes, LYN
Health Education Assistant
The week of February 14 -18 is designated by the American College Health Association as National Condom Week. This
seems especially appropriate for a holiday
celebrating love and romance.
In conjunctipn with this theme, the Student Health Services Health Education Department and Student Health Advisory Board
are hosting a number of events on campus.
On Monday, Feb. 14, S.H.A.B. Members will be giving out safer sex information
and free condoms at a table in Founders'
Plaza. Also there will be film viewing in
Commons206from 11 A M-1 PM. Students
may drop in during these hours to view short
film segments or they may stay for the entire
presentation.
On Tuesday, Feb. 15, five North County
AIDS Organizations will have information
tables in Founders' Plaza from 10 AM - 2
PM and will be available to answer questions
about their free services. In the event of rain,
they will be in Commons 206 from 1 PM —
3 PM. In addition, Martha Baron will be
displaying J ohnny's Quilt and showing a
touching video interview about a family that
died of AIDS.
On Wednesday, Feb. 16, from 11 AM
t pl PM in Founders' Plaza, Earl Storm will
present information on the " Don't Duck
Responsibility" campaign from the non-profit
Stepping Stone Project. The program has
HIV information and graphics, including a
cartoon depicting Buckminster Duck, who is
the program mascot. The object of the pro-
gram is to educate the community on the direct
risk between alcohol use and HIV transmission and progression. The group presents a
caring and rational approach to responsible
behavior.
Also on Wednesday, there will be an HIV
Awareness lecture in Commons 206 from
2 PM—3PM. Based on the Red Cross format,
the lecture will be followed by a question and
answer session.
EVENTS SCHEDULE
J oel G rinolds, M D, M PH
Unless you have been stuck on a tropical
island over the past few months, you probably
have heard or read many reports on Health
Care Reform. Numerous approaches to reform are being discussed, offering everything
from incremental reform and single payer
systems (like the Canadian model) to the complex and far-reaching Clinton plan. Clinton's
plan and others are now being discussed in
Congress and some movement is expected in
this term.
Conceptually, there seems to be agreement on several aspects that should be important to students including universal coverage,
standard benefits, quality standards, insurance reform, antitrust and liability reform,
eligibility for all applicants,federal subsidies
for poor/low income participants, administrative simplification, improved purchasing
power of consumers, maintaining a variety of
providers (Health Maintenance Organizations,
fee for service, hybrids) encouragement of
primary, preventive, and managed care.
The various plans d iffer on the following
elements: mandatory employer-paid premiums, mandatory participation in regional alliances (without getting into detail, the alliances would pool consumers into a large
purchasing group then bargain with local
health plans for low-cost quality care), cost
controls, plan costs.
Although health care reform will have a
major impact on students, the reformers initially did not include the 13-14 million post
secondary education population or their existing health care system (i.e., Student Health
Centers) in their deliberations or specifically
in their plans.
What does reform mean for college health?
In short, nobody really knows. This probably
could be said for the general population. The
good news is that potentially all students will
have access to medical care. Also, the emphasis in reform is the provision of comprehensive primary and preventive medical care
which is the major objective of college health.
The American College Health Association and others have identified key players in
health care reform on Capital Hill and has
developed an informativepacket and a letter
that identifies key concerns. The packet also
describes the unique health care needs of the
college health population and the Student
Health Service model that currently provides
accessible, affordable, prevention-oriented
primary care as well as health education to
the broader campus community.
Stay tuned. Generally it is thought that a
plan will not be implemented quickly. However, it surely will have an impact. In future
columns I will discuss the plan or plans and
their impact as they unfold. For further
information, Dr. Grinolds can be reached at
Student Health Services, 752-4915.

�G iving a nd G etting— t he
r ewards o f v olunteering
C laire K . L angham
Service-Learning Coordinator
Katherine Johnson-LeVesque loves to
inform others about volunteer opportunities.
She enjoys being part of a solution, developing skills, and learning about new things. She
has designed the logo for CSUSM's Volunteer Day, Saturday, February 26, 1994.
Katherine, a senior, majors in psychology
with a minor in women's studies. Volunteering is central in her life. She explains that,
"Volunteering has a ripple effect. What I
have found is that the people I help, eventually help someone else."
"Giving has always felt
good to me and I like connecting to the spirit of another"
Learning how things work motivates
Katherine. For example, she volunteered to
work at the UC San Diego HIV Neuro-Behavioral Research Center. As a volunteer
providing clerical support and data input in
the psychiatry department, she observed the
process of research design, data collection
and publication, as well as how psychological testing was conducted.
Becoming a part of the solution instead of
just talking about a problem encapsulates
Katherine's philosophy. For the past five
years, she has been lecturing in the community and at local community colleges informing people about the effects of domestic violence, child abuse, and sexual abuse on individuals and society. Her goal is to bring about
social change through raising public con-
sciousness and encouraging people to get
into treatment so that the devastating effects
of trauma in the family can be alleviated.
Katherine currently volunteers with several groups. In addition to her educational
presentations described above, she also provides support, guidance, and referrals for
survivors of abuse. At Being Alive, an HTV/
AIDS women and children's resource center,
she volunteers as a receptionist and assists
clients and their families tq deal with their
emotional adjustment, Wfiether "infected" or
" affected" by this disease. This year,
Katherine is the Program Coordinator for the
PTA at Hickman Elementary School. Ethnic
Diversity, Women's History, AIDS Education, and Dad's Involvement in Children's
Education are among the programs she has
created. These topics were inspired by courses
she has taken at CSUSM.
Most recently, Katherine developed a 4
hour program for her daughter's 6th grade
GATE (gifted) program on the physiology of
the brain. Using a sheep's brain, she taught
students its anatomy and functions. She
explained that since no one's brain works
perfectly , we are all slightly different, unique,
and that each of us has something special to
offer.
With the strong belief that you can make
lemonade out of lemons, Katherine has volunteered in the past with assistance to the
homeless and to immigrants, in designing
and sewing clothes for the disabled, in teaching puppeteering, crafts, and cooking through
her church youth and women's groups, visiting the elderly, and tutoring in the elementary
school classrooms.
"Anyone can overcome loneliness and
add interest to their lives," Katherine stresses.

"Giving has always felt good to me and I like
connecting to the spirit of another. I have a lot
to be thankful for, and like to use my talent
and capabilities to assist others."
In this spirit, Katherine is an active participant of the Outreach Sub-Committee of
the Service-Learning Committee planning
for Volunteer Day on campus on Saturday,
February 26,1994.
For the future, Katherine plans to continue her volunteer activities and to develop a
scholarship especially f or disadvantaged
youth who come from a background of abandonment, neglect, or abuse. Her motivation
is to help these youth create new and better
lives for themselves.
While Katherine was volunteering at an
outpatient center for severely depressed and
schizophrenic patients, one of the men remarked after listening to Katherine tell about
her activities, that she must be extremely
organized to "do it all!" That marked the first
time that Katherine reflected on the effectiveness of her time management and prioritizing
in everything she does. And, yes, she still
spends quality time with her family and enjoys her life. Enjoying volunteering makes
life more meaningful and more fun!
OLUNTEER DAY
Saturday, February 26
�Circle K lends time at Vista Soup Kitchen
C laire K . L angham
Service-Learning Coordinator
Volunteer Day is not until
the end of this month, but members
of Circle K have been volunteering
their services to help others weekly.
Ann Garman, President of Circle
K, not only directs club activities,
but personally becomes involved
in community service. Among the
30 m embers, C atherine Yeats
spearheaded getting C SUSM's
c lub to volunteer at the Soup
Kitchen on Thursday evenings in
Vista's Grace Presbyterian Church.
At Circle K 's weekly meetings on campus, students sign up to
help serve meals at this local soup
kitchen.
Wendy Dresher has been
helping 2 or 3 times a month for
several months. She observed,
' The first time people go there,
they anticipate that everyone is
homeless - but that is not the case.
For some, their social security or
other limited income runs out before the end of the month and they
haven't enough for food."
Scott Morey went to assist
at the soup kitchen for the first
time last week and will be going to
help again.
"It is very rewarding to go
there and help people who are
needy because they are so appreciative," Wendy added.
Kevin Kilpatrick emphasized the same comment. Kevin
said that he can really relate to the
homeless. "They are just like the
rest of us - they have hopes and
dreams, and have experienced disappointments too."
Wendy went on to explain,
"By the end of the month, there are
about 70 people of all ages, from
newborns to elderly, at the soup
kitchen. Most people though, are
between thirty and forty years old.'4
Kevin talks with the homeless. "The homeless are people
too. We have intelligent conversations with them." The people
who come to the soup kitchen ask
the Circle K student volunteers
about their university experience-—
what they are studying and their career goals.
Kevin described avoidance as
people's typical behavior toward the
homeless. In contrast, he asks them
if they are staying warm at night,
especially with the cold winter nights.
"When it rains, its very wet unless
they can find an overhang." Kevin
acknowledges that there are a f ew
homeless we should b e wary of, but
this is also the case with people in
general.
The interesting thing that
Kevin notes is that there is a real
camaraderie among the homeless
—they look out for one another. He
added, "These people are really appreciative of the assistance provided. They piteh in and help with
the cleanup afterwards. It shows
that they are not j ust taking advantage of society's generosity."
If you are interested in knowing more about Circle K, please

Sigma Phi Delta Raises Money for L.A. Quake Victims

Staff Writer
Richard Harvey, Sigma Phi Delta's Public Relations Officer
The ground was still shaking
w ith a ftershocks w hen R ichard
Harvey, Sigma Phi D elta's Public
Relations Officer started organizing a
fund-raiser tohelp Los Angeles Earthquake victims.
Sigma Phi Delta, a social and
charitable fraternity at CSUSM designed a fund-raiser that allows us to
enjoy the beautiful southern California coastline while helping our neighbors to the north.
Buy o ne t hree-hour w halewatching ticket f or $ 15 and $5 will be
donated to the Los Angeles Quake
Relief Fund while $10 will go to
Apollo Charters. Captain JeffJohnson
has agreed to run the fund-raiser
through March 15,1994. The Apollo
is an all-aluminurn 65 foot 22 inch
sports fisher with a full galley and
sleeping quarters for 30, "just in
case you get sea sick" said Harvey.
The boat is certified to accommodate 94 whale watchers.
Harvey chose the Apollo for
several reasons. "It holds 94. It is
one of the nicest boats and Captain
Jeff Johnson was most generous in
working with me." Harvey said.
Radio stations KCEO (95.9
FM) and KCET (1000 AM) interviewed Sigma Phi Delta last Sunday. The fraternity spoke about
CSUSM and promoted their whalewatching fund-raiser at the same
time. The radio interview is on reserve in the school archives section
of the CSUSM library.
Sigma Phi Delta is now coordinating group trips aboard the
Apollo.
Harvey was approached by
Japanese students at UCSD who
are interested in an English as A
Second Language whale-watching
trip. Harvey is currently working
o naCSUSMFaculty whale-watching excursion.
Tickets must be bought in
advance and are available for purchase from any Sigma Phi Delta
member. For more information call
967-6523.
After "raising as much money
as possible" for the Earthquake Relief Fund, Harvey will organize a
benefit for the Association of
Retarded Citizens (ARC).
Sigma Phi Delta may host an Open
Invitational Miniature Golf Championship in April with proceeds
going to ARC.

Volunteer Day on Saturday, Feb. 26,
1v marks another first for this new cam-994,
pus. California State University San Marcos
has a special role in the North San Diego
County area, and in the spirit of community
partnership, the university initiates and offers programs to further intellectual, professional, and personal development within
the diverse community which it serves.
Volunteer Day activities on Saturday
Feb. 26, 1994, in the spirit of community
partnership, center around youth, the environment, the elderly, a museum exhibit,
and assistance with tax preparation for lowincome individuals.
The kick-off rally is in Commons 206
from 8 to 9 AM. Mayor Lee B. Thibadeau,
who has proclaimed Feb. 26,1994 as Volunteer Day in the City of San Marcos, will
participate. Volunteer activities start at 9
and continue to noon both on campus and in
the community.
Many CSUSM clubs and organizations
are volunteering their time to assist the next
generation to envision a university education in their future. They are joining together to provide campus tours and funfilled workshops to youngsters invited from
San Marcos schools, Boys and Girls Clubs,
and Key Clubs from the surrounding community. The following clubs are participating: the Liberal Studies Student Association, the Computer Club, the Student California Teachers Association, Circle K, the
Silver Shield, El Club de las Americas,
M.E.Ch.A., the Association of Business
Students, and the Pan African Student
Alliance.
Environmental volunteer service is at
nearby Discovery Lake Park. Earth Club,
the Associated Students, and the 3-D orga-
nization along with a Girl Scout troop, will
focus their services on sprucing up the park
and creating a nature display.
The Accounting Society will help low
income individuals with their tax preparation, and the Argonaut Society will prepare a
new exhibit for the San Marcos Historical
Society and Museum. Key College Opportunities plans to continue their services to seniors in San Marcos. The Knights also plan
to continue with their c lub's involvement in
Special Olympics.
English language students from Japan
will join in a variety of the on-going activities. The Japanese Culture Exchange Club is
planning a potluck for the volunteers after all
events have been completed that day.
Students from Soc 309 Aging and Society, as part of Service-Learning in the course,
will assist at the Elder/Adult Care Annual
Public Forum sponsored by the San Marcos
Family Care Commission at the San Marcos
Joslyn Senior Center.
Participation is welcome and students,
staff, and faculty can sign up in the Associated Students Office to join in activities organized by CSUSM clubs and associations.
Many hands not only make the work lighter,
but more enjoyable.
Volunteer Day will provide an opportunity for students and our local community to
participate in cooperative services. These
activities fulfill several university goals including outreach and cooperation with our
broader community, promotion of civic pride
and responsibility, and initiation of contacts
f or service-learning. A number of our faculty
are encouraging service-learning in their
classes to link real-life experience through
service to the theories and concepts taught in
the course.

The Service-Learning Committee enthusiastically anticipates upcoming guest
lecturer, Dwight Giles, of Vanderbilt University. Giles will be speaking at CSUSM
on Monday, Feb. 21 and Tuesday, Feb. 22.
Giles, an expert in the field of servicelearning, has been granted a three-year
FIPSE grant dealing with learning outcomes
in the field of service-learning.
His talk entitled, "What Is This Thing
Called Service-Learning: Working Through
Definitional Confusion," will be addressed
to the CSUSM campus on Feb. 21 from
Noon-1:30 PM. Everyone is invited to
attend.
This month the California Center for the
Arts, Escondido, designated 9,000 square
feet of gallery space at the $75 million arts
center as the California Center for the Arts
Musuem.
The Museum will be a permanent nonprofit institution, essentially educational and
humanistic in purpose, which will own, study,
care for, and regularly exhibit and interpret
works of art to the public.
The new museum will curate exhibitions
of regional, national and international artists
and host traveling exhibitions, as well as
establish a Permanent Collection of art from
the 20th century, with an emphasis on American and regional art.

CSUSM Writing Requirement
-mindless labor or intellectual growth
Roy Latas
Legislature Sidesteps the Real Issues
Staff Writer
Students* interests in issues such as
free speech, child care and Student Union
fees gain and lose momentum, yet the All
University Writing Requirement (AUWR)
constantly sparks opinions from students and
faculty. The initial grousing of first semester
students translates to praise and thanks from
graduating seniors.
Up to this point in our academic careers, there has been a general lack of emphasis on English composition skills in American education which has caused American
industrial and economic institutions to question the academic standards that allow colleges and universities students to graduate
without adequate writing skills. CSUSM is
trying to remedy this situation with the
AUWR. The definition of the AUWR, as
stated in the 1992-1993 University Catalog,
is: "Students are advised to note that every
course at California State University, San
Marcos has a writing requirement component of2,500 words. This requirement can be
filled in a variety of ways, depending on the
course." This impersonal sounding writing
r equirement r epresents the F ounding
Faculty's intention of creating a graduating
population instilled with exemplary writing
skills. They hoped the AUWR would furnish
a mechanism that insured all graduates received sufficient opportunity to use and improve their writing skills.
The AUWR makes it necessary for all
students to write within a variety of disciplines in varying contexts from literature to
biology. The Founding Faculty also understood the demand for clear, concise, and
logically written communication in the postgraduate areas of employment and graduate
school, as well as in family and social contexts.
The implementation of the AUWR
takes a variety of forms depending on the
discipline and faculty member. A common
form is the 2,500 word paper. Here, the
student makes an in-depth study of a particular topic and presents a detailed report that
condenses many information sources into a
3 Strikes You're Out
clear and compact analysis. Other faculty
members may assign several smaller papers
during the semester, thereby reducing student stress levels, as well as the instructor's
laborious task of grading multitudes of long
papers at one time.
The format of a paper or assignment
presents an infinite array of possibilities. Some
professors employ written work in the form
of diaries, screenplays, journals, letters, or
novella, promoting a new critical frame for
the student to exercise his or her analytical
perspective. These formats challenge the
students' minds to realize alternative connections within the subject matter while increasing the students' creative freedom, and making the task less intimidating.
The journal is the most popular alternative form of writing. Journal entries are
devoted to the preceding week's discussions;
the journal condenses the student's comprehension of new material while allowing the
professor an insight into the absorption of
lecture information. The journal entries allow the professor to understand when issues
are cloudy and make adjustments or reviews
when necessary.
The faculty relies on the AUWR to
furnish students with an additional opportunity to decipher what they learn through writing, and reassemble classroom information
in a way that demonstrates understanding of
the concepts. Writing theorist Peter Elbow
calls this process "cooking.' "Cooking means
getting material to interact." The interaction
of thoughts creates new material that the
student can interpret which may include segments of classroom experience and personal
insight. This process is assimilation not memorization. The student undergoes a metamorphosis through conceptual analysis. Elbow
also reminds his readers that "[g]rowing
means getting words to evolve through
stages," not overnight.
The intent of the AUWR is growth
within the student, and we all have felt some
growing pains. However, our new stature has
the foundation of improved writing skills.

Staff Writer
In theory, it is difficult to argue
against any of the five "3 Strikes and
You're Out" crime bills currently in front
of the California state senate. All the bills
guarantee stiffer sentences for any criminal convicted of a second violent felony
and life imprisonment if convicted of a
third. Certainly, violent crime has reached
epidemic proportions in American society and it is obvious that something must
be done. The "3 Strikes" concept has
provided politicians with an unprecedented opportunity to look tough on crime
without alienating any powerful voting
lobby. Even President Clinton, in a State
i of the Union address otherwise dedicated
to health care and welfare reform, received his biggest bipartisan applause by
reiterating his support of such a bill on the
federal level.
It is wise, though, (as it is with
anything to which all politicians pay carefully calculated lip service) to maintain a
healthy skepticism about the rash of current crime legislation. In California, the
"3 Strikes" frenzy was fueled in large part
by the murder of Polly Klaas, the young
child kidnapped from her living room and
brutally killed by aconvicted felon. Klaas'
story mesmerized the nation, in large part
because it symbolized the encroachment
of violent crime into suburbia. "Are our
children no longer safe in their own
homes?" parents everywhere wondered.
Many of those parents had political pull,
and the conviction that something must be
done to keep violent criminals behind bars
and out of our neighborhoods eventually
reached the state legislature.
The Klaas case was a horrible tragedy. But horrible tragedies are the norm in
many of our inner cities, a fact which
seems to have escaped our governmental
leaders for quite some time. A child in
Watts has not been safe in her own living
room for a long time now. She has not been
safe on her way to school, in her classroom,
on the playground or on her way home.
She has been forced to live with the fact
that violence is a way of life in her community. Streets burned, buildings were looted,
a city was ignited and the California legislature did nothing to address crime in the
inner city. There has been no legislation
aimed at creating economic opportunities
for the young people in Los Angeles most
likely to turn to crime. There has been no
increase in police protection in urban areas
plagued by constant gang warfare. There
has been no attempt to stop crime before it
starts by engaging in the kind of honest
discourse about values and community that
elected officials are so afraid of. The same
politicians who turned their back as our
cities turned into war zones now purport to
end crime as we know it by guaranteeing a
few stiffer sentences. I t's not a bad first
step, but i t's hardly enough and i t's long
overdue.

Dear Editor:
I want to acknowledge a writer among us
who chooses to communicate a detestable
message. I found this message written on
toilet paper—CSUSM toilet paper, in a lavatory here on campus:
"HOMOS SHOULD NOT BE
TOLERATED
GAY BASHING IS THE CURE"
I find this message disturbing enough
that I refrain from signing my name out of
concern for personal safety. Although I
believe that college might help open this
person's mind, I feel sad, regardless of my
views on homosexuality (tolerance of those
different from me), that someone among us
declares hatred in this vile and covert way.
Rather than engage in open debate, the writer
chose to display his hatred anonymously.

The Pride is s^iiciting ^oiur jparjtici^atioh
in am on-going dialogue on issues facing
universities arid colleges today. Input from
faculty, $tudeiits;staff and the business community is Invited to explore the future of
higher education,
A recent is^ueof the Economist referred
to today- s/universities as "towers of babble"
raising serious issues facing higher education. What are the goals of universities
today? Are they meeting the needs of the
marketplace? What should be the purpose of
a tax-supported institution?
The public university, like other government institutions, is slow to change. Revered
as instruments of enlightenment in the past,
today government treats higher education
like an inefficient Nationalized industry.
Once considered the engine of economic
growth, today's university is becoming a
dinosaur, concerned more with image than
impafct te^^^
away from tiiii#rsities for advice and rese^rcto; turning to think-tanks such as the
ffiritafe^'F^ndation^-CATO Institute and
l&ftnci^^
The' taostfre-,
quejiteom^
are
t hat'toiyersilies -We f illed with 1960s
dogooders and that "academics rarely give
'y^u^ fWiinoney ;.»[and] star professors are
perpetually on sabbatical."
With fees skyrocketing, and college enrollment declining, what docs the future hold
ifor tdmoitow's college graduate? The computer is probably partially responsible. An
enormous array of information is available at
the fingertips of every nimble typist with a
modem for a fraction of the cost of a college
education. By way of Compuserve, Prodigy
and Internet we can access thousands of online databases and hold discussions with
experts from around the globe.
Video tape is another medium which
offers practical, educational applications for
a fraction of the cost of a college education.
Palomar College introduced the TV course,
where you can study accounting, anthropology or Spanish in the comfort of your home.
Rising costs and declining revenues are
forcing universities to re-evaluate priorities.
University costs, according to The Economist, rise much faster than inflation because
they are labor intensive (wages rise faster
than prices). Even Ivy League colleges are
teetering on alienating the middle class, leaving these legendary institutions to the idle
rich. Politicians are questioning whether the
money could better be spent on other things.
Private industry has been much better at
harnessing the information revolution than
its public-sector counterparts. The market
must adapt quickly to the needs of J N
marketplace, or die. Tlie combination of
academic tenure and cumbersome decision-making tends to preserve old institutions rather than expand or create new
ones. •

Governments bent on reform are looking at three popular strategies. The first
uses the market approach with government
playing the role of the purchaser, By
linking funding to performance and separating research funds from money for teaching, government has provided two distinct
ways of boosting a university's i ncomeincreasing the number of pupils or improving the quality of their research. British
universities are pursuing these different
avenues for survival producing remarkable results within a short period of time.
Oxford, Cambridge and the like, emphasizeresearch. The next top 10 schools have
a mix of both research and a teaching
focus, while a third group focuses primarily on teaching. While academics regard
thisas an affront to their dignity, this scheme
- A second approach in cutting costs is to
simply shift funds to cheaper institutions
like community colleges and innovative
sources of higher education, like workstudy programs, distance learning, and
getting credit for life and work experience.
A third strategy is for universities to
diversify their funding. Rather than relying solely on government funds, universities should market their research to local
industry. In the U.S., industry-sponsored
research has more than quadrupled in the
past decade. This would serve to create a
better rapport with the business community, and attract funding as well as provide
a purpose for graduates. Raising fees is
another way to diversify funding. While
critics complain that this would curtail
expansion, in Britain, "free" education has
done little to bring the hordes to the sanctuary. The fact remains that local, state and
federal governments are putting a limit on
educational funding.
Universities must accept the fact that
governments are becoming increasingly
reluctant to fund higher education.
California's school system once satisfied private industry s demand for technical
research, physicists, chemists and engineers that fueled the dramatic growth of the
California economy. These positions are
now predominantly staffed by foreigntrained graduates.
Can higher education meet the needs of
an ever-changing marketplace?
�I'll Take Anything" holds up despite drastic
revisions
66T?
Thomas Lee Huntington
Staff Writer
It is no secret that James L. Brooks'
new film I'll Do Anything began life as a fullfledged Holly wood musical. It was an ambitious idea, but test audiences were so turned
off by the musical numbers that Brooks felt
compelled to rework the entire film. The
director edited and reshot to such a degree
that the only semblance remaining of the
film's previous incarnation is a solitary song
T M ouie
R euiew
by five year old Whittni Wright.
The film holds up surprisingly well
after such drastic revision, mainly on the
strength of the acting and Broolcs' ear for
witty and insightful dialogue.
Nick Nolte heads the cast, portraying a
down-on-his-luck actor forced to take in the
six year old daughter he hasn't seen for two
years. Albert Brooks is an action film producer obsessed with the bottom line and Julie
Kavner is a public opinion pollster who runs
tests screenings and can utter nothing but the
truth. Wright is truly a discovery as the
bratty, precocious child with whom Nolte
must re-establish a bond.
The plot is unimportant in a film such
as this, where most of the pleasure comes in
watching the actors inhabit their roles. Nolte
is outstanding as a likable guy struggling to
come to terms with the realities of parenthood
and Hollywood at the same time; the best
scenes in the film are between Nolte and
Wright. Their exchanges seem genuine and
honest because the characters have been so
well crafted and written with such care. The
laughter and tears this father—daughter relationship invokes are not easy and sentimental; the actors earn the sentiment.
Less successful is the subplot involving a romance between Brooks and Kavner.
Both actors are superb, especially Brooks.
His producer character could easily have been
a stock stereotype, an easy villain for a film
about the film industry. But, perhaps because
the director is also himself a producer, the
role is given complexity and even a degree of
likableness. It is not difficult to see why the
kind, giving character played by Kavner would
be attracted to such a person. But the romance is inadequately explored. Perhaps this
is the area where the music played an integral
role and the reshooting and editing couldn't
completely cover that gap.
Nonetheless, I'll Do Anything is an
extremely likable, well-written film about a
group of interesting, complex people. It is
difficult to imagine the movie as a musical,
which is probably a tribute to Brooks editing
ability and an indication that he ultimately
made the correct decision.

�Poli Sci Professor Talks
on Crime in the Black
Community
Karin Foster
Staff Writer
Photo/Carlos Mariscal
As a kick-off for Black History month,
political science professor Dr. Edward Thompson i n delivered a lecture on crime in the
black community. Dr. Thompson took a
critical look at public policy regarding crime,
and the impact this legislation will have on
the African-American community.
As the economy begins to recover, politicians have started shifting their focus from
economic concerns to the issues of crime and
violence. President Clinton reflected this
trend in his address to the nation. Dr. Thompson commented that the President's " Three
Strikes You're Out' was the centerpiece of
the President's State of the Union address."
The proposed "Three Strikes You're
Out" legislation would sentence offenders
convicted of a third violent felony to mandatory life imprisonment. Thompson criticized
this type of legislation as representing "an
imbalance between punishment and prevention." He argued that this policy would have
minimal effects on crime, while depleting
funds that could be used to address critical
social needs. Furthermore, this legislation
would most negatively effect the AfricanAmerican community.
Thompson argues that legislators who
support these bills use "faulty assumptions."
Supporters declare that high imprisonment
rates will lessen crime. In fact, Thompson
stated studies prove the opposite is true. States
that have the highest rate of incarceration
have the most violent crime, while states that
have the lowest rates have less violent crime.
According to Thompson, supporters of
PUBLIC SAFETY NEWS
S LICK R OADS
the "Three Strike" policy also promote the idea that mandatory sentencing will guarantee imprisonment of
criminals.
Thompson also argued that
President Clinton is fully aware of
problems that plague the AfricanAmerican community. Clinton acknowledges that crime has increased
because of the breakdown of family
and community. The President also
recognizes that black youths need more
employment opportunities. Yet, according to Thompson, Clinton chooses
to promote legislation that will increase the breakdown of these values.
He feels the President's policies towards crime ignore the underlying
problems. African-American families are severely threatened by the
high incarceration rate of young black
men. Youths in prison cannot form stable
families. Many of those incarcerated have
turned to crime because their community
lacks jobs that would allow them to support
families or themselves. Lack of financial
resources prevents these youths from seeking
better employment in the suburbs. Limited
opportunities for young black men often
leads to crime as a solution for survival.
Effective legislation would directly
address these problems, Thompson believes.
Rather than spend millions of dollars incarcerating criminals for their entire lives, money
could be spent on programs that would offer
disadvantaged youths alternatives to crime.
Year-round sports programs, improved
schools, and effective job-training centers
could be implemented as a means of preventing youths from engaging in crime. Criminals already imprisoned should receive counseling to develop stronger social skills, while
receiving employment training and education. Education and training in prison could
provide incentive and motivation to find work
after release.
Dr. Thompson did not deny the seriousness of violent crime, or the fact that
society must punish violent offenders. However, the seriousness of this problem should
cause legislators to create laws that work
towards genuine solutions. American society is demanding the reduction of violent
crime. Dr. Thompson argues that although
President Clinton's proposals may appear
tough, they will do little or nothing to solve
America's violent crime problem.

.
For the first time, the 20 CSU campuses and Chancellor's Office have
raised more than $ 100 million in voluntary contributions. In 1992/93, $109.4
million was raised, an increase of 10.8
percent from 1991/92's $98.7 million.
CSU Long Beach led the campuses
with $16.2 million, followed by San
Diego State with $15.5 million, Cal
Poly San Luis Obispo with $10.9 million, and CSU Fresno with $10.8 million. The largest percentage increase
was CSU Sacramento, which increased
its private gifts 115 percent, from $4.0
million to $8.6 million. CSU San Bernardino showed a 101 percent increase,
going from $1.0 million to $2.1 million.
Corporate giving increased five percent in 1992/93, from $38.5 million to
$40.4 million. San Jose State's alumni
contributed the highest amount, $2.4
million, a 162 percent increase. In the
past six years, contributions to the CSU
have grown from $57.4 million in 1987/
88 to $109.4 million in 1992/93, an increase of 91 percent.
OTHER CSU NEWS:
An update on plans for a new CSU
campust at Fort Ord. Downsizing in the
military has given the CSU an unprecedented opportunity to receive 1,300acres
of Fort Ord in Monterey Bay for a new
campus that eventually will accommodate 20,000 students by 2020. According
to the progress report to the trustees give
by J. Handel Evans, president of San Jose
State University, and Peter Hoff, CSU
senior vice chancellor for academic affairs,finalconveyance of the property by
the federal government is expected by
May, and the first group of students is
expected by fall 1995. The federal government already has provided $15 million
of an eventual $135 million that will be
provided to the system to convert existing
buildings to campus usage.
Keeping Romance in Your Relationship
P am F arrel
Contributing Writer
February is the month for lovers. Red and
white hearts adorn the malls and everyone is
in the mood for romance. However, in our
society, romance and sex getinterchanged as
if synonyms. Sex can often be a sultry killer
to romance and can thwart a person from
finding true love. Consider these findings:
Mosts couples break up when a crisis
pregnancy arises.
There are no "STD" bouquets to send
when you give your lover a sexually transmitted disease.
A ccording to D ick Day and J osh
McDowell, authors of "Why Wait," a sexual
relationship can cloud your decision making
process and your hormones can connect yout
to someone that your heart knows isn't right.
Studies have concluded that couples who
live together prior to marriage are twice as
likely to end up in divorce court.
In a survey of the first graduating class of
Cal State San Marcos students, 51 percent
gave an okay to casual sex. but there is
nothing casual about sex. Giving yourself'
totally to another, bearing your body and soul
isn't the same as having your usual morning
cup of coffee. Perhaps we have all lsot sight
of the difference between love and lust. Na-
tionally know, psychologist, Steve Arterburn
explains the difference between love and lust
as—
Love is personal, lust is impersonal. Love
is concrete, focused on a particular object;
lust is unfocused, capable of fixing on almost
any object. Love tends toward faithfulness,
lust is a wanderer. Love seeks stability, lust
is short-lived and mercurial. Love is an affair
of the mind and heart, lust is an affair of the
emotions and hormones. Love is a matter of
giving, lust is matter of taking.
Musicians Steve and Annie Chapman have
a line in one of their love songs, "True love
starts with a kiss of hearts." To keep romance
in your life, give your heart and keep your
body until you hear, "With this ring, I thee
wed." No matter your sexual history, you can
make decisions today to protec t your future
lovelife and ensure that romance becomes a
lifestyle rather than a fleeting sentiment on a
Hallmark card.
Pam Farrel is a graduating senior who has coauthored a book with her husbandBill. Their
book "Pure Pleasure: Making Your Marriage a
Great Affair ** is due out in June. Pam is also a
member ofS.A.LT., a Christian group on
campus.
Presidents,
Faculty
Receive Salary
Increases
Presidential salaries were increased for
the first time in three years by the Board of
Trustees. Five collective bargaining agreements, including one with the California Faculty Association, also were ratified, giving
many employees their first general pay increases in several years.
Effective April 1, salaries for the 20 presidents were raised an average of 8.6 percent.
The annual average salary of a CSU president
will be $130,461, up from $120,075. Two
presidents serving in interim positions did
not receive increases; when those permanent
appointments are made, new salaries will be
set.
Approximately $17 million for salary increases for presidents and other CSU employees was set aside by trustees after the
legialators augmented the CSU budget by
$50 million for 1993/94. The presidental
increase will total about $200,000; the rest of
the $ 17 million will go for the system* s 33,000
employees.

Future Literature and Writing teachers
m aybe able to wave goodbye to the expensive Praxis and SSAT tests for admission in t he c redential p rogram,
thanks to CSUSM's waiver program.
Last summer, the California Commission on Teacher Credentialing accredited CSUSM's Single Subject Preparation Program in English.
The program prepares students for
the one-year credential program by offering combinations of courses that in
essence replace the tests.
The Praxis and the SSAT are twohour tests, costing $200 each. Susie Lan
Cassel, coordinator of the Single Subject Preparation Program in English,
described them as "incredibly difficult."
Indeed, last October, 49 percent of the
students who took the SSAT failed.
The preparation program is divided
into three phases. First, all waiver students must complete the core classes.
Second, similar to the bachelor's degree
program, students choose an emphasis
either in writing or literature.
They must complete 15 units from
that emphasis with a minimum GPA of
2.7 in all waiver classes. Third, a portfolio documenting a student's academic
growth must be compiled at the end of
the program.
The program is approximately 15
units more than the baqhelors degree,
Field
depending on the courses taken. But,
unlike the bachelor's program, junior
college c redits c ount t owards t he
waiver. Once 8 0 percent of the waiver
classes are completed, students are eligible to apply to the credential program.
Academic Advisor Lora Coad and
Cassel encourage t hose t hinking of
teaching careers to have an evaluation
t o determine t heir eligibility for the
waiver. Bring an appointment letter to

nors for additional projects, h e said.
After developing the recreation field,
CSUSM could initiate soccer, golf, and
track and field programs, helping t o
lead to eventual membership in the National Collegiate Athletic Association
(NCAA), Gonzalez said a t t he t ime.
Lynch said defeat of the proposal would
show t he community "we d on't care
about having recreation facilities."
Since student fees will be reduced by
5 percent next year, she added, students
would pay about $5 less than this year
even if the $35 increase is approved.
CSUSM students already enjoy the
lowest tuition and AS fees in the statewide system, Faltaous said. Gonzalez
told the North County Times previously
that an anonymous donor offered the
university $150,000 to start the project
two years ago. Since that time, $50,000
has been spent on studies to determine
the cost of t he project, estimated at
about $1 million, he adcled.
Faltaous said he hopes students will
support the proposal not just because
a recreation center is needed, but also
because a viable sports program might
help to decrease the apathy many students have for the university in general.
While the academic life on campus is
extraordinary, he added; development
of more clubs, organizations and student g overnment is d efinitely still
needed. "Students need to realize they
belong to the campus and the campus
belongs to them," he added.
The fee increase proposal has generated mixed feelings on campus, however.
AS Secretary Erik Dawson said he
probably would not s upport it as it
stands because AS would not have control over the account. "Since students
would ultimately pay for the recreation
facility, s tudents shquld control t he
funds," he added.
Dawson pointed out that AS and the
University Foundation have differed in
the past on a few key issues, including
the perceived monopolies held by Duplication Services and Aztec Shops on
campus.
Student control of the athletic account, he argued, "would give the AS
more cards to play with when we sit
down and negotiate something."
Dawson also said he would not support the proposal without some form of
t ermination clause, a dding t hat h e
would h ate to see the fee still in place
20 years from now, with generated revenue going toward such things as watering grass on campus.
Lynch said students could vote out
the $35 increase after six years. Several
students said they liked the proposal.
Daniel Huey, a transfer student from
Mira Costa Community College, said he
would support the increase, adding, "In
college, there's a time for study and a
time for other recreation.
A track would be a place to exercise
the body, not just the mind."
Huey said h e t hought t he track
would be good for the community in

Parking woes still affect
most students
my
B Y JAMES GATES
Finding parking on campus is
no f un. But getting a parking
ticket is even less f un.
But that's,what may be in
store for a number of students.
CSUSM's Parking Services h as
laid down t he law: There is n o
"grace period" for parking violations.
Some 165 students got that
message the hard way, by being issued tickets i n t he f irst
two weeks of classes, 110 in the
f irst week, 75 in t he second.
T hat's a p er^week r ate of
r dughly d ouble t he a verage
week in the previous semester.
Parking coordinator Dora
K noblock c ited " continued
abuse" as the reason for the nononsense approach and added,
"This is not an exception, it will
be the rule."
Half of those ticketed had
n ot d isplayed .valid p arking
permits. "If (ticketing) gets students to purchase parking permits", s aid Knoblock, " then
what we are doing is working."
The other half, with permits,
simply were parked in u nau-
thorized places or lots. When
asked if such tickets is a symptom of t he problem or t he solution, Knoblock paused a nd
replied, "I'm inclined to say it's
a solution."
Parking tickets cost the recipients $20. A late payment,
after 21 days, adds another $10.
A p arking p ermit costs $54.
Checks (made out t o "CSUSM
parking") are acceptable payment.
University officials know
spaces are still at a premium,
b ut some 100 new spots were
o pened t his s emester in t he
P alomar-Pomerado H ealth
Systems Center, across Twin
Oaks Valley Road f rom t he
c ampus. By a nd l arge,
Knoblock says, these spaces are
still n ot b eing fully utilized.
Shuttle service from that lot is
available Monday-Friday, 10
a.m.-3 p.m. Knoblock says the
shuttles, too, are underutilized.
In addition to that and the
main Student lot, a t hird one
(Lot 3) is available j ust past t he

t he a dded l ots, b ut s tressed
t hat t hey w ere t oo f ar away
from classes to be helpful.
"I usually plan to be here an
hoiir early t o find good parking for morning classes," said
one, J ames Harris.

CSUSM's e nrollment f or t he
spring semester is down from
slightly from last fall. Though
final enrollment figures were
not complete, Richard Riehl,
executive d irector of e nrollment services, said h e did not
"expect an increase over fall
enrollment."
CSUSM also h as plans for
a nother new lot, a djacent t o
Lot 3, which will add 590 new

Among the many features of
the new system is the San Diego Library Circuit, through
which s tudents can r equest
from over 4 million books collected at the libraries of UCSD,
SDSU and t he University of
San Diego. Once requested, the
books will arrive at the CSUSM
library by t he next b usiness
day.
Reid called the system "wonderful" and a "real bargain,"
considering the increased access offered to students. "This
system does not exist many
places in the United States,"
she added.
»
Reid said the library staff is
also working to provide more
electronic access, while continuing to add more volumes
on site. The library stores over
half of its collection offsite, in
the Foundation Building (the
annex), which is aceessible only
t hrough c ourier. S tudents/
h owever, c annot b rowse
through this part of the collection; they must request a particular book, then wait one day
for delivery.
^ e library piaps t oadd onsite shelving in the near future,
but finding a location has become a problem. Structurally,
only certain p arts of Craven
Hall can handle the weight of
the books. The central part of
the "U" in the building can accommodate it, b ut no open
space exists for shelves. The
back area of the third floor in
the library remains available,
and t he staff is studying t he
possibility of immediate expansion.
The amount of library space
available for students has also
become an issue. The library

Dot.Comm comes to town
B Y LODIA ORAMAS
How many times have you had a complaint about a program or a club not being available at CSUSM? How many times have you done something about it?
One communications major, Quito Washington did do something. His thoughts and
concerns about the communications program at CSUSM led to action, the formation of
a new club called Dot. Comm. He's present secretary of the newest group on campus to
liave a voice.
President Brian Frye, who also is majoring in communications, and Washington
thought the name Dot. Comm. would fit the club perfectly. Both are also specialists in
utilizing the Internet.
The club will have its next meeting on March 6.
Dot. Comm., which Frye says has 60 people "already interested," was organized in
the middle of the fall semester. Its goals include focus groups in which small groups can
target an area of interest, a book-share program, internships, scholarships and networking with San Diego State University's Communications Club.
Frye and Washington shared the sentiment that communications majors virtually were
without a voice on campus. As one junior put it, "CSUSM just doesn't offer very much to
communication majors."
Dot. Comm. seeks to change that.
Fiye said the club is looking for members, particularly ones interested in serving on
its various committees. Interested students can visit Dot. Commas web site at
WWW.csusm.edu/puhlic/dotcomm.
GARY E. MEANS NAMED DEAN OF EXTENDED
STUDIES AT CSUSM
Gary E. Means, Ph.D., has been appointed dean of Extended Studies at California State University, San Marcos. The appointment concludes a nationwide search. He
assumes the position March 4.
Means, a former Vista resident who attended Palomar Community College and
San Diego State University, comes to CSUSty from the University of Southern Colorado

also served there as dean of continuing education from 199$ t o 1995, and chair of the
department of sociology froml986 to 1993.
"I'm looking forward not only in returning to San Diego, but in developing
CSUSM's Extended Studies program into a responsive and valuable educ^tion^respurQe,
for the citizens, businesses, non-profit organizations and government agencies of North
County," said Means. "By merging the vitality of the region with the promise of the university, Extended Studies
is certain to play an increasingly important role in the growth and development of North
County."
Means' extensive academic experience began as an associate professer of sociology at Arizona State University in 1973. In 1980, he joined San Diego State University
as an associate professor and coordinator of the university's North County Center Programs.
Means also worked as a social worker, protective services supervisor and staff
development supervisor with the San Diego County Department of Public Social Services from 1965 to 1973.

v. The Book of Angels, a
novel about a contest of wills between

Kennedy was p rompted t o
write Angels when a f riend of h is
became involved with Satan worshippers. In order t o u nderstand w hat was
happening t o his f riend, Kennedy read
books on t he occult, a nd h e f ound
them "pretty chilling stuff, b ut i t
occurred t o m e t hat a contest of wills
between a n artist a nd a magician could
make for a n exciting novel."
The "angels" in t he story a re
emblematic of t hose angels who "in

t o read as any first-rate, page-turning

In Drive Dive, Kennedy
describes m en and women weakened

of extramarital affairs, t he fear of

of J im Morrison, takes it home, sets it
u p as a shrine in t he basement and
drunkenly dances before it, "a balding

candlelight." The images described are
religious, and I asked Kennedy if B, in
effect, was worshipping a n alternate
god.
"We all need something t o
alleviate t he emptiness t hat pours into
u s in unguarded moments. Morrison
a nd t he other images in t he b asement
represent B's temple of saints, their
eyes upon him. Through t hem h e
creates his own religious rituals.
Religion is a means of easing t he awful
anxiety of a world r un by chance."
Chance? I asked Kennedy.
No planned destiny? No gods deciding
o ur fate?
"Once I saw a big-headed boy
bouncing a ball o n t he sidewalk. H ie
ball hit t he kid in t he head a nd fluked
crazily away, him chasing it. Some-
times I see t hat as a reflection of the

"And yet maybe not without

Now,
m ultimedal-winning
Olympian diver Greg Louganis
has turned the video camera on
himself with "Looking to t he
Light," a b ehind-the-scenes
glimpse of his personal life since
his ground-breaking biography,
"Breaking the Siirface."
"So many people asked me if
I was doing another book after
"Breaking the Surface,' and I
just didn't want to go through
t hat w hole p rocess," s aid
Louganis f rom h is h ome in
Malibu. "So when the director
of the film version (produced by
the USA Network) approached
me a bout doing t he video I
thought it was a perfect compromise."
A n ative of San Diego,
Louganis has been a competiIIW^I

tive diver since the age of 10.
Still in his teens, he won a silver
medal in the 1976 Olympics and
by the age , of 30 had won four
Olympic gold m edals. In
" Breaking t he S urface,"
Louganis traced his rise to diving stardom, an ascent filled
with several obstacles.
He was taunted by schoolmates because of his brown skin
(he was put up for adoption by
his biological mother, a Caucasian, and Samoan father) and
dyslexia which went unnoticed
until his teens. He grew up with
an abusive father, battled substance-abuse p roblems, a ttempted suicide and eventually
came to terms with being gay.

fall as a benefit for the American Foundation for AIDS Research (AMFAR), many in at-

A n ew r ecreational
soccer team for gay men named
the San Diego Breakers Soccer
Club is now recruiting players
of all ages and skill levels for its
roster, with Monday evening,
practices set to begin March 9.
The club is being 6rganized by two San Diego area
men, Kelly Sieben* M.D., a family practice physician at Sharp
Rees-Stealy Medical Group,
who lives in Scripps Ranch, and
J ohn B aril, a H uman Resources computer professional
for Scripps Clinic and resident
of La Jolla.
1 Baril and Sieben both
a re l ongtime soccer players.
Baril started playing with t he
San Diego Sparks gay soccer
team 11 years ago and contin-
tendance were moved by what
u nfolded on t he video. The
emotions ran the gamut from
laughter to tears.
"That's one of the things that
was m issing f rom t he TV
movie," said Louganis.
"It wasn't a very realistic view
of people living with AIDS on a
day-to-day basis. The video is
more honest and candid."'
And it is. Throughout "Looking t o t he Light," we see
Louganis deal with the cost of
expensive and complicated new
AIDS treatments as well as returning to old habits that would
interfere with his HIV.
But t here are lighter moments, too. Much of the last few
years has seen Louganis traveling cross-country speaking on
college campuses and appearing
at countless book signings. Another highlight is a video diary
of Louganis achieving a recent
goal: completing the 1997 California AIDS Ride, a 500-mile
plus bicycle ride from San Francisco to Los Angeles.
Like other documentaries of
its genre, the video takes an unflinching look at a man still
coming to terms with his evolution into a role modeLforth$
gay and HIV/AIDS communities. "I'm not comfortable being seen as a role model. I don't
t hink I'll ever b e," said
Louganis. "Everybody is human
u es t o p lay w ith t he t eam.
Sieben played five years with
the Sparks, until last year.
Their goal is f or t he
Breakers to join the San Diego
County Soccer League by the
time main season competition
begins next October. The team
also plans to play in the Black
M ountain 7 on 7 s ummer
league and possibly ongoing
indoor play at Folsom's sports
facility in North Park.
" We're o pen t o gay
male players of all skill levels,"
said Sieben. "All ages are eligible, and experience is not
necessarily required. Willingness to play and a good attitude
are what's important."
M ore e xperienced
skilled players looking for a serious competitive team will be
referred to the Sparks.
Initially, the Breakers
is soliciting players for its 18man roster. "If there are more
people interested, we wouldn't
turn them away. Anyone is welcome to come to practice and
other club social get4ogethers,"
Sieben said, noting t hat first
practice is at 6 p.m. on March
9.
The B reakers would
complement the Sparks, which
recently announced plans to
become more competitive. "We
hope both teams will benefit
f rom our recruiting efforts,"
said Sieben.
He e xplained t hat,
"Well differ from them in that
our playing time will be preferentially f or gay guys, a nd
t here will b e more equitable
p laying t ime r egardless of
skill."
While anyone may attend practice, those who are
selected for the team roster will
pay monthly dues, although
the amount hasn't been determined, Sieben added. Baril and
Sieben say they plan to secure
a lit practice field.

The Mountain High Compromise
B Y D AN LA BELLE
Sure, you'd like t o head t o Mammoth
Mountain this weekend. Every skier/
snowboarder would.
Carving t he first tracks through fresh
powder is t he highlight of any winter
season. •
i But what if you only have a da3Ktb'&kii:
>
o fride? You knbw t he situation: test on
Monday in history^ p resentation in literature
on Tuesday, and
so o n. But you
still want to experience t he
snow.
In that case, local mountains are your
only choice. And when you think local
mountains Big Bear immediately comes
to mind. But t hat might not b e the best
choice.
Mountain High is located about 2"
h ours n orth o n I nterstate 15 i n
Wrightwood in t he San B ernardino
N ational F orest. C omprised of two
separate resorts, an east and west, it
offers varied terrain for both beginner
and advanced skiers/snowboarders.
The west resort has long and widegroomed trails serviced by a high-speed,
quad chairlift. It is the most popular of
the two resorts for skiers because of its
wide and clean runs.
The east resort features Fault Line, a
full-sized, snowboard terrain park with
a series of man-made launches and a
good-sized half pipe for both beginning
and advanced riders.
But what makes Mountain High a
good day-trip choice is t hat it requires
no mountain driving. That's right, no
winding roads. While the slopes t hemselves are snow-covered, the roads are
usually not.
This convenience comes at a cost,
t hough. "Most of t he snow is m anmade. It doesn't have the same feel as
real powder," says Chris Sorensen, an
avid skier for 14 years.
Adds intermediate snowboarder Josh
Waters, "The slopes are crowded on the
weekends. Sometimes they even sell out
of rental equipment."
At $35 for an
eight-hour l ift
ticket, it's not
t he best value
either.
*
However, Mountain High's closeness
can make the difference between ^ et-
r
Flicks
f rom p a g e 9
ting to t he slopes and staying home,
especially in the middle of a semester.
You can avoid the crowds by showing u p early. The resorts open at 8 a.m.
daily. Arriving early also will guarantee
that you can rent whatever equipment
you need.
An a lternative would b e t o visit
Mountain High at night when it is less
crowded. The east resort offers night
skiing on 75 percent of its runs, including all of the Fault Line terrain park.
It may not be what winter vacation
d reams a re m ade of. But M ountain
High is a compromise between that sixpage research paper due on a Monday
and having a little winter f un.
as any teenager does however, as with
t he characters in Drugstore Cowboy,
Dr. Curry points out, "These are people
o ur society, h as d eemed d ifficult t o
love, difficult to care a bout.. . a film
director can get an audience to take a
look at these folks and spark a germ
inside of us t hat says, 'I feel compassion here', 1 can love the most unlovable".
River's Edge will certainly spark some
serious conversation regarding difficult decisions and the people we love.
Discussing two of h er favorite films
arid their appeal, Dr. Curry posed a
v ery r eal arid r eflective q uestion,
"What about those among us that are
so difficult to love?
What happens if through art,
you can find a speck of yourself inside
these people, can you then see something human, a connection to humanity?" Both D rugstore Cowboy a nd
R iver's Edge will p rovide f ood f or
thought.

Historic Tukwut
courtyard dedication
BY KIM ANDERSON
Pride Staff Writer
On Thursday, March 2, without a cloud in the sky, occasional
cool breezes, and the sun shining
warmly and brightly, the courtyard
near Cougar Central was officially
dedicated as Tukwut Courtyard.
The beautiful day marked not only
a new beginning, but also a continuation of Luiseno Tribal relations that
began with the University's first
class in 1990.
Bonnie Biggs, professor emeritus and tribal liaison to Cal State
San Marcos, said, 'Today represents the closing of the circle." She
said that the University decided to
honor the Luiseno people by seeking out a Native word to serve as an
unofficial mascot After Tukwut,
the Luiseno word for mountain
lion, (pronounced "took-woot")
was given to Cal State San Marcos,
it was only used intermittently and
inconsistently. "Today," Biggs continued, "the student leaders of2006
and 2007 also choose to honor the
indigenous people of this land as
evidenced by their successful advocacy to rename this courtyard."
The
dedication
ceremony
included a dedication prayer from
Pauma Band Chairman Chris
Devers, who also sang a traditional
Luiseno song with his son, Chris
Devers Jr. and nephew Gene Dixon.

Monday March 5, 2007,
the CSUSM Writing Center
begins offering assistance
through online tutoring. The
new program is available to
all CSUSM students, and
works similar to the in person
appointments offered. Like all
WC services, the online tutoring is free as well. The center
is located in Kellogg 1103, and
is open from Monday through
Thursday 9 a.m. to 5 p.m., Fridays 9 a.m. to 2 p.m.
I n response to the question,
what inspired this program,
the director of the writing
center since 2005, Erin Goldin
responded, "Many university
writing centers already offer
online tutoring. This campus
is mostly known as a commuter campus, so many students can't make their way to
the writing center for tutoring.
This way, busy students can
still get help."
Now easier than ever, asking
for advice about any class
paper is achievable in four
simple steps through online
tutoring. Access the Writing Center website, answer
a few simple questions about
the assignment like when is
it due, what class is it for, and
the instructions for the assignment. Next, attach your document, and wait for a response.
Writing consultants suggest
putting "as much information
as possible in response to the
questions when submitting
online for optimum feedback."
Most responses will take three
to four business days depending on how busy the consultants are.
Goldin still recommends
making an appointment to
come in whenever possible
because it can be "more productive to come in arid spend
thirty minutes. The more
interaction there is, the more
information and feedback the
student receives." Students
can make appointments online of walk-in anytime to
check for available time slots.
The center also offers workshops on a variety of different
topics every Tuesday during
university hour in University
Hall? room 440.
The CSUSM center opened
in 1991 and since then has
helped numerous students

Chris Devers lights sage during the Tukwut Courtyard dedication ceremony. Burning s age is a Luiseno
tradition to protect the area and ward off evil spirits.
Dixon also burned sage, a Luiseno
tradition intended to protect the area
and ward off evil spirits. Wayne
Nelson and two others from the La
Jolla Reservation also sang a traditional Luiseno song to commemorate the occasion.
About ten Indian speakers spoke
during the ceremony which around
100 students, faculty, administration and Luiseno people, including
students from a nearby tribal charter school, attended. Each speaker
was thankful for the acknowledg-
ment and recognition extended to
them by the renaming of the courtyard.
Chris Devers said, "This is traditional Luiseno territory, and with
the name ofthe Tukwut, I commend
the student body for continuing to
acknowledge that"
Patty Duro, Rincon Band
Member, said, "Ifs a pleasure to be
here and to have our people and our
language recognized here."
Hunwut Turner, Rincon Band
Member and Director of the Rincon
Education Center, spoke specifically to the younger Indian students
and current students of CSUSM
saying, "When they do think about
this courtyard, the Tukwut courtyard, they [should] say it loud and
strong and proud, and that's what
we should all be— proud to be
Luiseno."

Haynes also spoke and greeted the
audience by saying hello and welSee TUKWUT, page 3

. One group of students carpooled
to a grassy hill on the corner of
Manchester and Rancho Santa
Fe in Encinitas. The other group
of students arrived at the Home
Depot on the corner of Luecadia and El Camino Real. At both
sites, migrant workers are known
to stand on the sidewalk and wait
for strangers to hire them for
work.
Before the students left to meet
the workers, A nne Skidmore of
Intervarsity said, " They'll tell
you about people who will hire
them for work and t hey'll paint
their house all day long and then
t hey'll say, they don't pay us
and will drop u s o ff." Skidmore
encouraged the students to be
open with the workers. " They're
not u sedtd being treated well by
the community. These guys have
amazing stories. Most of them
are open to share and t alk." .
When the students l eft Commons, ASI's Director of Community Service Sherry Brideau
loaded her white Honda with
plastic bags f ull of peanut butter
and jelly sandwiches, bananas,
apple juice, orange j uice, nature
valley bars and water. Brideau
arrived at the Home Depot site
with about 20 students to meet
Intervarsity's Ramiro Marchena
and the workers. But once the
students parked and gathered, a
security guard approached them.
The security guard told Brideau
that she would have to park her car
across the street, in the Encinitas
Ranch Town Center because her
car contained the food for the
workers.
Once Brideau parked across
the street, students met her t o
carry the plastic bags f ull of food
and the gallons of orange juice.
In the time it took for students t o
walk across the street, a Sheriff
arrived at the Home Depot. The
Sheriff had arrested one of the
workers. If any of the men are to
step beyond the unmarked line
that separates the sidewalk f rom
the parking lot, they could be
immediately arrested. Marchena
suggested that the students tell
the Sheriff what they were h ere
t o do. Once the Sheriff knew, students walked u p to the migrant
workers, let them know that they
were students f rom CSUSM and
asked if they wanted anything to
eat or d rink. One student said to
a worker whom he had j ust given
a sandwich to, "Poco Espanol."
The man replied, "Poco English."
At this, each young man shrugged
and smiled.
The Spanish speakers of the
group were able t o hold longer
conversations with the men,
which o ften resulted in both parties bursting into friendly laughter. Freshman Katelyn Aceves
said, "I thought it was really
rewarding to come catch them
o ff guard and they let u s in and
told u s about their stories." Freshman Jenna Spada said, "I liked it
because I can speak a little Spanish and I could understand a little
of what they were saying. They
were really f un and easy t o talk
to." One of the men told Spada
that when a local bank across
the street had been robbed, the
police immediately questioned
the men. Spada said that the man
she was speaking to said, "They
might have thought it looked like
me but I would have never done
something like that."
Students also gave flyers to
the workers that Intervarsity provided with information on a tutoring center in San Marcos where
their children could be tutored.
The flyer also included information of a church in Solana Beach
that holds Spanish masses.
Most of the workers the students interacted with were f rom
Oaxaca. Junior Leo Carillo said,
"They were saying that i t's
tough to get a j ob— sometimes
you get work, sometimes you
don't. They come here for food;
they're very impoverished. They
cross the border in harsh conditions. They make a living and
leave their families behind. So
many people blame migrants for
coming here j ust for the benefits.
But how can they [get] benefits
like health care, if citizens can't
even get i t?" Carillo added, " In
reality they are people who want
t o help."
I n j ust 40 minutes, a fter most
students had enough time t o talk
with the men, the border patrol
showed u p for the man who had
been arrested. Some of the men,
however, sprinted into the street
in spite of the opposing t raffic t o
avoid the border patrol. Sophomore Herminia Ramirez said,
"One particular thing that stood
out t o me is that as the men saw
the other guy being arrested and
they were telling me that it made
them angry because the action of
one guy reflects on the others."
Ramirez added, "I asked them if
they were treated well, and they
said for the most p art it is very
p eaceful except when the minute
men are there. The minute men
t ry t o pull them over a certain
line so that they will get arrested.
They also told me that there was
one time where three gangsters
came and stole their valuables,
and the security guard did nothing."
The event itself inspired ASI
and Intervarsity t o recruit more
students t o serve these men more
o ften. Marchena said, "There's a
Catholic organization t hatreaches
out t o migrant workers and the
homeless. We need t o see how
we can fit in with t hem— how we
can do this more consistently, at
least once a month. You kinda get

to know the people and b e of service t o them. A nd then it impacts
us." Briedeau said, "Community
service in general is very important because it enhances you as a
person, and your college experience. You are putting yourself
aside and serving others, which
we tend to forget in today's society."
R amirez a dded, " I loved participating in t his event b ecause

ing college papers: The center
focuses on one or two issues
at a time, or any specific questions that the student might
have. They begin with looking
at the overall goals ofthe paper,
and not so much on sentence
structure and spelling errors.
The website states, "Our goal
is to help you become a better
writer, and we try to focus our
sessions on tools or strategies
that will help you on future
papers." Usually they address
the larger issues in a paper,
such as the thesis and whether
or not the student has met the
requirements of the teacher's
prompt. Although, from time
to time, they mention things
like, are you sure this is a complete sentence?" Goldin said.
"Rather than making the correction for the student, students
still do the work, but receive
help through feedback."
Consultants are ready and
waiting for a positive response
to the new program. Goldin
shares, "We expect the pace to
pick up once people get used to
the idea." Goldin and others in

About the ceremony, Biggs said,

The Invisible Children website is the
ongoing product of a film whose purpose is to educate and expose individuals
everywhere to the hideous cycle of violence occurring in Africa. When three
young Americans (Jason Russell, Bobby
Bailey, and Lauren Poole) equipped with
a camera, sought out for excitement in
Africa— the only excitement they found
were the sounds of children being captured during the night, and forced into
the life of a child soldier. According to
Jason, Bobby and Lauren, this nightmare was not their initial idea of a filmmaking adventure, but the three friends
found themselves "stranded in Northern
Uganda" and dedicated their time in there
to "exposing this tragic and amazingly
untold story."
Whilst the majority of 8 year-olds in
the United States are gluing macaroni to
a piece of construction paper and sprinkling glitter across the page, children as
young as 8 in Uganda are systematically
being kidnapped from their homes by a
rebel group called the "Lord's Resistance
Army"(LRA). A gun or rifle replaces
what should be a book or a pen, and
according to the website, the children are
"then desensitized to the horror of brutal
violence and killing, as they themselves
are turned into vicious fighters." A few
number of children are able to escape,
however, the majority of the children
[m/lÚblt
remain in LRA for the remainder of their
lives, only experiencing life through fighting in guerilla warfare. The film "Invisible Children: Rough Cut," follows what
the community has named "night commuters" as children "commute" during
the night, from their villages to different towns in fear of being kidnapped.
The film concentrates on 4 boys: Jacob,
Thomas, Tony, and Boni, according the
website, "through their eyes, we relive
the terror of abduction, courage of survival, the heartbreak of losing a brother,
and the innate joy— found only in a
child." Because of their time in Uganda,
the filmmakers decided to share this film
and "inspire others, as it did them"; thus
began the movement that is called Invisible Children.
Due to the LRA, 250,000 boys and
girls receive no education in Northern
Uganda; only 30% of the schools are still
functioning, but are overcrowded. Invisible Children offers a program called
"The Education Program," where "Visible Child Scholarship provides fullride scholarships and full-time Ugandan
mentors for war-affected children." In
the ICEP (Invisible Children Education
Program), each child is provided with a
mentor who aids the child not solely for
academic reasons, but to provide "careeroriented guidance, encourage success,
and foster leadership success." There are
currently 436 ICEP scholarship beneficiaries and 15 mentors. The "Schools for
Schools" is a program that is much more
like a competition, for schools across the
United States to raise money to help build
schools in Northern Uganda. Schools are
urged to come up with different fund-raising ideas and compete with other schools
for the grand prize - a trip to Uganda to
help build a school with the money that
was raised.
According to the website, "the entire
area of Northern Uganda has been ravaged by this 20-year-long war. Roughly
95% of the people in Northern Ugandan
districts forced to evacuate their homes
are now living in camps, earning no
monetary income, and living in absolute
poverty." Invisible Children also started
the "Bracelet Campaign," which allows
Famous scientist Carl Sagan once said,
"We live in a society exquisitely dependent
on science and technology, in which hardly
anyone knows anything about science and
technology." Cal State San Marcos requires
students to know at least a little about technology. It is called the computer competency requirement, and all baccalaureate
students, irrespective of major, must fulfill
this requirement before their third semester here at San Marcos or their records will
be placed on hold, and they will be unable
to register.
The computer competency requirement,
or CCR, can now be fulfilled in a couple
of ways: either by taking a class that satisfies the requirement, or by taking the test.
However, beginning in Fall 2008, classes
will no longer be an acceptable means of
satisfying the requirement. Mary Atkins,
CCR coordinator, said, "This was a policy
change approved by the Faculty Senate on
the recommendation of the General Education Committee's Computer Competency
Requirement subcommittee."
The CCR website goes into more detail
about the test, which classes satisfy the
requirement, and provides study material
and the exam schedule. It can be found
here: www.csusm.edu/iits/ccr.
The CCR test is divided into four different sections: computer ethics, the Internet, basic word processing proficiency, and
basic spreadsheet concepts proficiency.
The computer ethics section tests individuals' understanding of software copyright,

way to earn money. The bracelets are
hand-made from reed and recycled wire,
and sold in the United States; the money
that is raised from the campaign goes
back into the Invisible Children Education Program. These programs function
in a self-supporting manner and support themselves because of the numerous movements that have been set up to
support each other and raise awareness
to help the people of Northern Uganda in
their struggle to survive.

copyright infringement and protection,
software piracy, and computer viruses. The
Internet section tests students on using the
Internet to obtain information. The word
processing proficiency section discovers
if students can use basic features within
Microsoft Word. The spreadsheet section
tests students on using basic features in
Microsoft Excel.
Students may take the CCR test as many
times as it takes to pass it. Atkins said,
"There is no penalty for taking the exam
multiple times." The exam itself can take
anywhere from 2-3 hours. Students may
take the exam on Mondays and Wednesdays 5:30 p.m.-7:30 p.m. in University Hall
room 273, and on Fridays and Saturdays
from 10:00 or 10:30 a.m. until 2:00 or 2:30
p.m. (respectively) in Academic Hall room
202. Students need to bring a picture ID, a
print/copy card with approximately $2 on
it and something to write with. Print/copy
cards are available to purchase in Kellogg
Library.
There is no time limit on the test, and
there is no need for students to complete
all four sections at the same time. Students must score 75% or better to pass the
test. The sections are graded separately,
that way if a student fails one section, he
or she needs only to retake that section,
instead of the entire test. No appointment
is needed. Scores are posted on SMART
Web within each student's profile.

NHL Trade Results, it's anyone's game
BY DAVID CHURCH
Pride Staff Writer
After the National Hockey
League's trade deadline expired
on February 27, a lot questions
have been answered. With a
record tying 25 trades at the
deadline involving 44 players and
26 draft picks being exchanged
between 27 of the 30 NHL teams.
The trade deadline also makes the
playoff picture become clearer.
With six teams in the Eastern
Conference pretty much guaranteed in the playoffs come April,
four of them were active at the
deadline. The Eastern Conference leader, Buffalo Sabres
traded backup goalie Martin
Biron to the Philadelphia Flyers,
putting the weight on 2nd year
goalie Ryan Miller to carry the
remaining load and team through
the playoffs. The Sabres also
acquired Danius Zubrus from the
Washington Capitals in a move
that gives the team depth to a
long list of injured forwards.
The Southeast Division leader,
Tampa Bay Lightning made several silent moves acquiring Shane
O'Brien, Jason Ward and Karl
Stewart. These additions give
Tampa Bay depth in their defense
and much needed toughness.
The Pittsburgh Penguins added
veteran Gary Roberts from Florida, which will give this young
team a talented veteran forward
who will be able impact the
team's top two lines. The Penguins also acquired tough guy
Georges Laroque from the Phoenix Coyotes. Laroque adds lots of
toughness to the team that needs
to protect their young sensations
in Sidney Crosby, Evgeni Malkin
and Jordan Stall.
The Atlanta Thrashers made a
bold move acquiring veteran forward Keith Tkachuk in hopes to
rejuvenate a struggling offense.
Tkachuk will give the Thrashers
another talented player who will
join a team that already has a list
of great players.
With only two spots remaining out of the eight-playoff spots
in the Eastern Conference, these
four teams made adjustments in
hopes of giving their team the
advantage over the other.
The New York Islanders
brought a shock to the hockey
world as they received Edmonton
Oilers fan favorite, Ryan Smyth.
Smyth gave the Oiler fans a
tearful goodbye, which brought
flashbacks to 1988 in Edmonton, when the Oilers traded the
Great One, Wayne Gretzky, to
LA. This move gives the Islanders the upper hand over the other
three teams.
The defending Stanley Cup
Champions, Carolina Hurricanes
added Anson Carter in hopes
of Carter regaining the 33-goal
touch that he had the previous
season in Vancouver.
The Toronto Maple Leafs
added center Yanic Perreault
to the team who will provide a
gritty, strong face-off man. The
last team in the race would be
the Montreal Canadians who
appeared to pull themselves out
of the race as they traded veteran defensemen Josh Gorges
for a d raft pick and a prospective player who cojild help the
team later down the road when
he makes the pros.
In the Western Conference,
the Nashville Predators acquired
Flyers captain Peter Forsberg.
Forsberg was looked at as the
biggest name on the market at the
deadline, and it cost the Predators two young talented prospects and a first and third round
pick. Forsberg finishes the miss-
ing pieces needed in the Nashville lineup, as they were looking for a talented forward who
could make an impact on their
team, and Forsberg should do
that as long as he stays healthy.
Not far behind the Predators in
the standings is the Detroit Red
Wings who acquired Todd Bertuzzi from the Florida Panthers.
Bertuzzi is currently hurt but
should be joining the Red Wings
prior to the playoffs. Bertuzzi
could give the Red Wings that
extra edge in a playoff series
with his scoring and playmaking
ability.
The San Jose Sharks added
veteran forward Bill Guerin
from the St. Louis Blues. Guerin
gives the Sharks another scorer
who should fit right in with last
years MVP Joe Thornton.
The Blues gained three prospects, two first round picks,
and one second and third round
pick by trading both Tkachuk
and Guerin. And if both these
players return to St. Louis at the
end of the season, St. Louis will
be looking at this deadline as a
great way to rebuilding a team
that once made it to the Stanley
Cup Playoffs 25 times in a row.
The Dallas Stars were able
to add long time Kings captain
Mattis Norstrom. Norstrom give
the Stars a talented veteran blue
liner who has great leadership.
Also added prior to the deadline was forward Ladislav Nagy.
Nagy could be a great pick for
the Stars if Nagy can regain the
scoring capability he had in past
seasons.
The biggest shock of them all
was how the Pacific Division
leader, Anaheim Ducks failed to
acquire a steady defense and a
big named forward for the Cory
Perry and Ryan Getzlaf line.
The Ducks failure to acquire
a big name player allows the
other Western Conference teams
to strengthen themselves and
better prepare themselves for
when they face the Ducks in the
playoffs.
For the teams that knew they
were going to the playoffs, they
choose to buy while those who
were already out decided to sell
their players for their futures.
There can only be one Stanley
Cup Champion, which means 29
losers who will be rebuilding for
next year. One thing is for sure;
it is anyone's game.

Dublin's Temple Bar
the often rainy Irish day. Starting
out from Temple Bar, the heavily
trafficked Ha'Penny Bridge takes
you across the river Liffey to the
bustling shopping areas streets of
the north, and O'Connell Street,
Dublin's main thoroughfare.
O'Connell St. is a busy street
lined with department stores,
magnificent statues and, if you
are feeling too lazy to walk, you
can grab a local bus or sightseeing tour. However, my suggestion
is that you walk, walk, and walk!
Dublin is a very compact city and
you can reach many attractions
by foot.
One place that is worth a visit,
on, is Trinity College. The illuminated manuscript "Book of
Kells" is housed here, and is truly
breathtaking, as is the extensive
library. Ireland is famous for
its contributions to literature:
indeed both the Dublin writers
and James Joyce Museums are superb. How- i

I have some ethical questions
for you.
Here is the situation first.
Vladimir Radmanovic of the
Los Angeles Lakers is making
5.2 million dollars this season.
He loves to snowboard, which
can be a dangerous sport. So
the Lakers put it into his contract that he isn't allowed to
snowboard while under contract with the team.
Turns out, the Lakers were
right
about
Radmanovic
because he separated his shoulder while snowboarding during
the all-star break. He initially
lied about it, because he knew
he would face punishment if
the team found out. Shortly
after living the lie he made like
George Washington and told the
Lakers what happened. They
quickly answered back with a
500,000 dollar fine because he
violated his contract and will
miss two months.
My question, is it right for
the Lakers to say he can't do a
certain thing that he's passionate about? I mean, in what other
industry do you see it written
into a contract that you aren't
allowed to do certain types of
extra curricular activities? Radmanovic could've just as easily
separated his shoulder taking
the trash to the bottom of the
driveway.
I know the team is just trying
to cover its butt from having
to pay an injured player who
(August 22 - September

a
œ
isn't contributing to a team, but
what's 500,000 thousand to a
multi-million dollar franchise. It
may seem a lot to you and me,
but Lakers owner Jerry Buss
cleans his hands with 100 dollar
bills.
It gets to the point where athletes are no longer looked at as
regular human beings because
they make millions of dollars.
I for one know that when I'm
a millionaire one day I'm still
probably going to be the same
goofball that I am now and will
partake in the same activities
that I do now.
What if someone told you
that you couldn't do one of your
favorite activities anymore? I
can just imagine someone telling
me one day that I shouldn't play
basketball anymore because I
may sprain a wrist and wouldn't
be able to type.
The way that I look at it is that
you make your own decisions
and you should live with them.
You may think Radmanovic is
stupid for snowboarding when
he was specifically told not to,
but I think he's bad and not bad
as in bad, but bad as in good. He
is living his life, doing the things
that he wants to do.
Here's another question for
you? Would you have lied like
Radmanovic originally did or
would you have come clean right
away like he eventually did?
I don't know what I would do.
It's-hard to say unless you're in
the actual situation, but I have
a feeling I probably would have
done what he did.
I know most people think the
exact opposite of what I've said
so far, but I commend Radmanovic. His soul can't be completely bought just because he
can shoot a basketball. Apparently, he's one of those rare athletes who is still human.

those who have never t ried such
a house salad, it is perfectly
exquisite, with a large bowl of
romaine lettuce, chopped red

ginger sauce, and f reshly shredded ginger.
Though there are dozens of
custom made rolls available
only at Matsuo's, there are a
select few of my favorite rolls
that j ust melt in your mouth.
The first roll I started with is
my all-time favorite, the MC
roll. The MC roll is comprised
of a California roll baked with a
special sauce and cream cheese
on top. Nothing else dissolves
so b eautifully upon the first bite
as the MC roll. Next up was the
Monkey Stick roll. The Monkey
Stick is made up of spicy t una,
crab, cucumber, avocado, carrots, cooked tempura style with
a spicy sauce drizzled over

salad. The spiciness paired

Beer of the Week
Karl Strauss Amber Lager

Pride Staff Writer
"Evil Blue Thing," my friend
said as I resumed my seat next
to her at the bar. "Yeah,
but what's it called," I
responded, pointing to the
brilliant blue libation in her
hand. She j ust giggled, and
I realized that The Evil Blue
Thing was already working
its malevolent magic. The
beverage seemed to glow
with impish potential.
Sinfully sweet, but not
saccharinely so, the Evil
Blue Thing goes down
smooth, feels warm and
creamy on the tongue, and
leaves a pleasant aftertaste
in one's mouth. Like many
mixed drinks, the pure enjoyment of drinking distracts
from the fact that one is consuming generous amounts
of alcohol, so the Evil Blue
Thing can easily live up to
its name if the drinker is
innocent and allows him or
herself to get tricked by the
Thing's wicked charms. That
said, the Evil Blue Thing can
be a pleasurable companion if
one is savvy and enjoys sweet
(shocking blue) cocktails.
To make your very own Evil
Blue Thing, combine 1 1/2
ounce creme de cacao, 1 ounce
Blue Curacao liqueur, and 1/2
ounce white rum in a highball glass filled with ice. Stir,
serve, and enjoy!

Not far from our campus is
one of San Diego's gems, a Karl
Strauss Brewery Restaurant.
Karl Strauss Brewing Company
has grown to become the largest distributing microbrewery
company based in Southern California. The company's first Karl
Strauss Brewery Restaurant, in
Downtown San Diego, opened to
the public on February 2,1989. In
1999, the company installed new
brewery equipment, which more
than tripled the brewing capacity at their downtown location. In
addition, the company opened a
new brewery restaurant in Carlsbad. Karl Strauss brews eight
types of beer year-round. The
Amber Lager was their featured
beer while my friends and I were
at the brewery.
A few weeks ago a good friend
of mine was turning 23, and my #
friends and I were contemplating
where to celebrate such an occasion. We sat around throwing out
ideas. Then, I looked down at the
beer in my hand and read "Karl
Strauss." I knew at that moment
where we would be feasting that
evening.
Karl Strauss Brewery Restaurants are a perfect combination
for a f un night out. Not only were
we served delicious food, but we
also had a variety of delicious
beers that were brewed in the restaurant. By the end of the evening
my memory was not functioning
at f ull capacity, but there was one
beer that stuck in my memory; it
was the Amber Lager.
This beer is copper
in color with a
slight sweetness
that
Cascade
hops provide. It
is a lager, so it is
fermented at cold
temperatures,
which
provides
for a very smooth
finish. The amber
lager complements
almost any food.
We enjoyed an
array of their appetizers, which were
all delicious with the
Amber Lager.
The Amber Lager
is Master Brewer Karl
Strauss's favorite beer
and is available yearround on draught, sixpack or case. You can
find it almost everywhere locally in San
Diego. Most restaurants and bars will have
it on tap. Also, most
grocery stores and Beverages and More carry
it. But I recommend head-
ing up to the brewery. If you are
with your friends or on a date, it
is good spot to have a good time
and enjoy great beer. For more

Julian McMahon, during a recent college
conference call in which "The Pride" participated, explained his reasons for taking
on the role of Jim Hanson in the upcoming
film "Premonition." "I was really interested in this movie initially because "of
Sandra Bullock, and then I was interested
in the movie because I read the script, and
then I was interested in it because I had
seen the director's first film, and I just
thought it was wonderful."
Jim Hanson is the loving husband of
Linda Hanson (Sandra Bullock). Together
they have two darling daughters and live in
a beautiful home. One day Linda receives
news that Jim has died in a car crash. Yet,
when she wakes up the next morning,
Jim is alive and well. She dismisses what
seemed like the previous day's events as a
.nightmare. The next day, however, Linda
awakens to find herself a widow. Somehow the natural progression of things has
gone awry, and Linda is experiencing the
days of one fateful week out of order.
Commenting on the fragmented nature
of the story, McMahon explained the filming process, "For me, because I come in
and out of it consistently, I had to kind of
monitor - say the movie goes over a week,
I play Thursday before the movie's even
got to it, and then later on, I'd come to the
Tuesday after that. It was a little tricky, but
the thing was it did span over a week so
you could kind of contain it a little bit. It
definitely posed its own challenges."
McMahon clarified that his role in "Premonition" is indeed a departure f rom the
roles he normally plays. "This is a very
normal guy. He's a very Middle American family, Middle American values
- j u s t a guy who loves his girlfriend, got
married, had kids, had a family." McMahon, known for more larger-than-life
roles - demon Cole Turner in the supernatural TV series "Charmed," Victor Von

Dr. Christian Troy in the FX series "Nip/

Movie Review:
BY JEREMY ALBERS
Pride Staff Writer
Picture "Gladiator" meets "The Matrix"
set in the dreamlike cinematography of
"Sin City." A fresh attempt to stretch the
barriers of visual cinema, "300" is a fist
flying, sword wielding, historical adventure.
Miller, who wrote the novel that became the
film, is best known for 2005's "Sin City."
"300" is based on the story of the Spartans
of Greece, a fierce group of elite warriors,
standing up to the self proclaimed GodKing Xerxes (Rodrigo Santoro) of Persia
in 480 B.C. Zach Snyder, of "Dawn of the
Dead" (2004) fame, directs "300" with a

The acting in this movie is well done.
Gerard Butler does a stellar job as the courageous King Leonidas. He dominates the
screen with a booming voice and wicked
fighting style. His wife, Queen Gorgo

that fellow movie goers will clap and cheer
for the heroic Spartans. The beauty of this
movie is that you are left wishing for more.

�New website aids educators
and students alike
B Y J O H N F RESCA
What's the key to power? Money?
Fame? Beauty ? No, it's information.
For educators and future pedagogues,
Jim Konugres, a master's program student at CSUSM, has created a new way
to get that kind of power on the "Information Highway." Called the "Administrators World Wide Web Resource
Site," it offers hyperlinks to top-notch
educational homepages.
It can be reached at h ttp://
coyote.csusm.edu/COE/admin~resource/index.html .The page offers 12
categories to browse in: "Reference &
Research Sites," "Online Journals &
Periodicals," Professional Organizations," "Special Education Resources,"
"Technology Resources," "ESL Resources," "Government Resources,"
"Unions & Associations," "Curriculum
& Instruction," "Business Services,"
"Human Resources" and "Legal Resources."
"Don't let the title of my web site fool
you," says Konugres. "It's not just for
educators. It's for anyone who wants to
find excellent resources devoted to educational issues."
Konugres got the idea to develop the
homepage from his project in his Educational Administrative Master's Program. "It seemed like the most appropriate thing to do," he says. "The use of
technology in our society is inescapable.
You can't deny the fact that technology
has become a prominent research and
resource tool in the global 20th century
society."
Knougres gathered the 100-plus links
for the page by receiving input from a
broad range of educational practitioners.
"The practitioners surveyed consisted
of administrators from urban school
districts, rural school districts, school
districts of varying sizes, public and pri-
vate schools, as well as districts with
large, second-language populations," he
adds.
The page, which was recently
hyperlinked on CSUSM's College of
Education Homepage
( http://
www.csusm.edu/COE/), has received
enthusiastic responses.
Assistant Professor Mark Baldwin, a
program co-coordinator who teaches
Educational Administration, says
Konugres has "bookmarked it for future
reference."
Konugres says he hopes visitors to
his page will find it useful. "Because
education is so important, I want
people to have an easily accessible
way to get information on it," he says.
Noting that he welcomes suggestions for improvements, he adds, "It is
as much the visitors' page as it is
mine." He can be reached by e-mail at
konugres@sdcoe.kl2.ca.us.

S tudent " voice" m erely an echo
B Y J ENIFER J AFFE
C SUSM has made a lot of progress
in changing its image from that of a
commuter school to a university since
interim president Alexander Gonzalez
took over the reins.
By next semester, students should be
able to kick back in an "outer" Dome
complete with awning protecting an
e xpanded
c ement
p atio
and
groundbreaking for a track and field
facility paid for mostly by students will
begin this summer. Both will help make
the campus more than a place to simply attend classes.
And this year's graduation activities
have changed as well. Gonzalez directed
the commencement committee to assess the annual event and devise methods for greater student participation,
according to the vice president of Student Affairs, Francine Martinez, who
also chairs the commencement program development committee.
This year's commencement will certainly benefit from the committee's decision to open up the singer's spot to
CSUSM s tudents, as w ell as f rom
Gonzalez's clout, which helped to secure actor Edward James Olmos as the
key speaker, f 1 p. \
* i 1P
But, in its quest to improve the sendoff for the seventh and largest graduating CSUSM class to date, the committee also managed to stifle the students'
most representative voice, that of the
president of Associated Students Inc.
(ASI), Joe Faltaous.
In January, Gonzalez approved the
committee's suggestion to replace the
slot held for the past three years by the
ASI president with that of a student
speaker chosen by a panel made up of
one administrator (Martinez), two faculty members, one alumnus and four
students. Faltaous met with Gonzalez
hoping to dissuade him from approving the s uggestion but t o no avail,
Martinez said. (Faltaous had clashed
with the university during the previous
year on several issues, including the
monopoly he believed Aztec shops held
on campus, and CSUSM blocked his
attempt to hire an outside vendor to
provide a copy service for students.)
The panel judged the prospective
speakers on "delivery, clarity, and organization of content,'' Martinez said,,
and read texts beforehand, not to stifle
students' comments, but to determine
if their words would^apply to all students.''
Faltaous auditioned for the slot but
was not among the two students selected to speak. Instead, he will be allotted two minutes to introduce each
speaker at the individual ceremonies,
Martinez said.
If the committee genuinely wanted to
increase ^udsrit p artieip*^
event, why would it not allow Faltaous
the opportunity to speak as well as the
selected two student speakers?
Tacking a 5 - to 10-minute speech
onto the ceremony hardly^ would make
it too long, considering that at less than
2 hours, it runs considerably shorter
than the commencements at larger universities.
Martinez said Faltaous' actions in
December had nothing to do with the
decision, and that she did not view him
as an "extremist." "We're going to keep
the ASI president in a prominent role,"
she said, adding that Faltaous would
serve as second grand marshal.
But by not allowing the ASI president,
who is elected by students, sufficient
time to deliver a thoughtful message,
the university in effect has sequestered
the voice of the student body, albeit in
a discreet and diplomatic manner.
Perhaps more intolerable is the idea
that administrators and faculty play
such a large role in selecting the student
speaker, existing on a panel that should
be filled only by students.
The committee's notion that any
speech might apply t o all students is
ludicrous, and smells an awful lot like
censorship. Political correctness taken
to the extreme is not politically correct.
The panel should not insist on deeming the speeches relevant for the same
reason it wouldn't edit the speech of
Olmos on May 23.
UCSD officials have beejn under fire
*on campus recently for invitmg House
• Speaker Newt Gingrich, who has vowed
to reference the alleged sexual misconduct of President Clinton in each of his
speeches, to be the keynote speaker. But
they certainly did not insist on an advance copy of Gingrich's speech.
CSUSM officials should take a lesson
from that and not insist on screening
the speeches of its own students.

Faltaous, T erra Beachamp, Adrianne Hallford and Najwa Nasser discuss the f uture
on campus, thus allowing the group to
reach out to students.
Yolanda Barraza, internal vice president-elect, said ASI needed t o create
more representation, for a broader
range of majors, than in the past year.
According to current ASI President
Joe Faltaous, ASI achieved several important goals in the past year, the most
tangible of which was the Jan. 12 opening of the Early Learning Center, which
offers childcare to CSUSM students.
Other achievements he cited were the
boycott of Aztec Shops, extended laboratory and library hours prior to finals
and the establishment of a more professional working relationship between
ASI and the university administration.
Faltaous said the outgoing ASI board
had to be "rebellious" and "activist,"
since the university administration was
not student-friendly at the beginning of
the year.
But, during the year, groundwork
was laid for a more professional relationship in the future, he added.
But some ASI members expressed
skepticism at FaltaoJus, prediction. "The
administration wants you to fix things,
but they don't give you the power," said
ASI Secretary Erik Dawson.
"To them, students are just window
dressing."
According to Alimi, the new ASI
board plans to create a smoother working relationship with the university and
focus itself more towards meeting student needs in the upcoming year.
"We have organizations fighting
when they should be working together,"
he added. "I want to make sure board
members concentrate on students and
not on the organization itself."
ASI Executive Director Darlene Willis
echoed this sentiment. "Our goal is to
empower students," she said.
�Student S ummit provides
valuable insights into
education and politics
BY JOSE CLEMENTE
Last week, ASI President Joe Faltaous
and I attended the California Higher
Education Student Summit in Sacramento.
The third annual meeting was a way
in which students from the California
State University system could get together and d iscuss i ssues t hat are
relavent to students.
It was three days of intense meetings,
but also a time for student leaders to
learn a lot from guest speakers.
The first day, we heard presentations
from our California State Student Association leaders and then went on to
discuss the issue of CETI, the program
that would create a private partnership
between the CSU and companies such
as GE and Fujitsu. Its main goal would
be to have at least 25 percent of classes
taught through the Internet by 2010.
There was a lot of heated debate
about whether students could learn
more, or even the same, from a computer that they could from interaction
with a professor.
After that session, we broke into
workshops that ranged from "How to
Lobby," t o "Media Skills'' t o "Why
Should You Vote No on Prop 227.*Our
keynote speaker of the day was California Secretary of State Bill Jones, who
spoke about the importance of voting
and of an education. He said students
were the "vision of the future" and that
we must align ourselves with that vision to be successful in the next century.
The next day, we started by participating in a discussion of Social Security. We l istened t o s peakers w ho
warned that unless we reform the system, it will go broke and not be there
for us when we retire. All the students
took this very seriously, as this is an issue that will no doubt figure prominently in upcoming elections.
The main event of the day was the
speeches of California gubernatorial
candidates. Although all had been in-
vited, three of the leading contenders
did not attend: Democrats A1 Checci and
Gray D avis and Republican Dan
Lungren. D emocratic Rep. J ane
Harman spoke about the need to f inance education and the need to existing problems of the CSUs, among Qther
topics.
The debate heated up when it was
announced that Harman would not take
questions from students because of a
prior engagement but would take them
from the press, in the media room of the
Sacramento Convention Center. After
c hants of "Power t o t he s tudents,"
Harman finally agreed to take some
questions from students;
She was grilled relentlessly about her
hiring of an illegal immigrant and about
the purpose of her visit. Though many
criticized her as doing the latter only to
push her political agenda, she won others over because of her competence in
handling the situation.
Overall, the CSUSM delegation was
impressed by Harman and the ideas she
brought with her to Sacramento. The
absence of Checci, Davis and Lungren
did not improve their candidacies in the
eyes of students.
The third day gave students a chance
to lobby their state assemblymen and
their senators. The CSUSM delegation
lobbied the politicians on behalf of the
education bond, which is so important
to our school. We also touched subjects
such as Proposition 227, Operation
Gatekeeper and the current CSU budget. All the politicians were receptive to
the delegation.
Overall, the trip proved to be a way in
which student leaders from throughout
the CSU system could discuss issues
that can help out all students.
Next year, the summit will be held at
San Luis Obispo and I would encourage any student who is interested to attend. The experience is invaluable and
the cost is low as Associated Students
Inc. will cover the majority of it.

Sleep deprivation a c ommon malady for many students
B Y L ODIA O RAMAS
As everybody knows, there are only 24
hours in a day, no matter how you try
to stretch it. Particularly when you're
cramming for an exam.
But, as few students may realize,
some experts are now reporting that if
you haven't had a good night's sleep,
it's a lot harder for you to recall what
you studied the previous day.
Sleepy people, according to a recent
report on CNN, are accidents waiting
to happen, particularly behind the
wheel of a car. When you get less than
six hours of sleep a night, the experts
said, you can expect headaches and
mood changes at best.
In addition, reaction times slow
down and concentration is severely
limited.
Some sleep experts interviewed recently on television insisted that from
the body requires nine hours of sleep
a night, not eight, as had been recommended for years.
But, in this age of 24-hour supermarkets, health clubs and drug stores,
it is becoming a sleep-deprived society,
the experts say, making it a dangerous
society.
In an informal survey on campus
five students interviewed said they had
driven while tired at least once recently.
Four of them said they tried to stay
awake by opening their windows or
singing along to the radio.

But, the experts say, neither of these
works. Pulling over and taking a short
nap is the only safe answer, they add.
Students, too, may not be getting the
most results out of late-night cramming and paper-writing, the experts
say.
That, indeed, may be mandatory
from time to time, they add. In those
cases, one way to help make it through
the next day with most faculties intact
is an afternoon power nap.

I felt a touch of sadness as I drove onto campus on Tuesday the 28th and saw the signs
for the blood marrow drive. The weather
was beautiful that day — finally a really
warm day, the semester starting to wind
down — what better a day for having a drive
to give life to others? How could that possibly create sadness?
The sadness sprang from the odd juxtaposition that many were going tofindthemselves forced into that day. The fact that a
noble cause was, yet again, going to remind
some people that a simple fact of their lives
leaves them in an awkward, and frequently
stigmatized, position.
The problem with the bone marrow drive
is relatively simple. Bone marrow drives,
like blood drives, have to be sure that transfers of marrow or blood are not going to result in infection of the recipient with HIV,
the virus that causes AIDS. To insure this,
such drrves juse relatively simplistic biit
cost-effective procedures to screen out
members of social groups where AIDS occurs relatively
frequently.
Though protection or other strategies
may result in no HIV infection for many
members of these groups, anyone who is a
member of the following three groups are
specifically excluded from blood or bone
marrow donation: 1) any male who has been
sexually active with another male, 2) anyone who has ever used a needle to take recreational drugs, and 3) any female who has
had sexual activity with a male who falls into
one of the two previous groups. While no
solid estimates are available, these three
excluded groups could easily represent 1 out
of every 10 people on campus
Thus, for a sizeable number of students,
staff, and faculty, such drives put them in
an awkward and discomforting position,
Signs all over campus suggest 'do the civic
Super Single:
thing, be tested for giving marrow'. And, wellmeaningfriends,professors, and campus staff
personally push them to get tested. What do
people falling into one of the excluded groups
do? It sounds easy to simply say 'no', but how
easy it is to say W in the face of a push for
doing your 'civic duty?
As an openly gay male and a professor, I am
comfortable with the awkward situations that
I faced that day when people asked why I
wasn't wearing one of the stickers indicating
that I had been tested. I simply said "I'm not
allowed to give", and on one occasion used it
as a point for education about public health
and stigma. A student that I know, however,
reported much more discomfort with feeling
excluded simply based on the fact of having
once had a sexual partner who turned out to
have used a needle for taking drugs. Unfortunately, many are left in a position like hers of
either having to 'come out' and possibly educate their friends (and maybe lose some), or
of appearing to be not mindful of their civicduties.
Possibly even more damaging is what happens to the few who walk in with their friends
to be tested, not knowing that their membership in one of the three groups means they
are not allowed to give. What do they go
through when handed the questionnaire and
find that they must leave, without showing
any signs of having given?
The civic responsibility of the bone marrow
drive is a good and noble cause, and I strongly
support the campus for being involved in such
things. But, I also feel that such drives should
be prepared for, and attempt to address, the
likelihood of unintended but emotionally
harmful consequences. Not only would this
ease the situation for members of the groups
mentioned above, but would also be helpful
for those who do not give for other personal,
physical, or religious reasons.

Irish history. "1916" is a portrait of the
Irish struggle for independence in the
early years of the twentieth century.
The novel opens with its central character, fifteen-year-old Ned Halloran,
aboard the doomed Titanic on its way
to America, where Ned and his parents
plan to attend the wedding of Ned's
older sister. The parents go down with
the ship, but Ned survives and goes
back to Ireland, a boy who now knows
that existence has "treacherous and
shifty borders."
In Dublin, Ned comes under the influence of the Irish poet and destined martyr Padraic Pearse, who was the Commander-in-Chief of the Irish Provisional Government during the Easter
Rebellion of April 24, 1916, when the
Irish nationalists, calling for severance
of all ties with Great Britain, fought a
doomed but gallant battle against their
far-stronger, foes.
Llywelyn keeps Ned close to the action
in the same way that Herman Wouk
used Pug Henry in "The Winds of War"
and Leo Tolstoy used Prince Andre in
"War and Peace," placing their main
characters alongside men who were instrumental in making history,
Llywelyn drops names that will be familiar to anyone who has followed the
Irish struggle—James Connolly,
Michael Collins, Joseph Plurikett, Thomas MacDonagh, Emmett Smith, and
many others, a virtual who's who of
Irish pugnacity, patriotism and rebellion. The narrative moves slowly, taking Ned through a rite of passage from
1912 to the cataclysmic 1916 Easter Rising battle, which doesn't occur until the
final chapters. The last 2 0 chapters (of
60) contain Llywelyn's best writing and
alone are worth the price of the book.
In the early chapters, Ned becomes part of the gathering storm,
while his sister Kathleen, living in New
York City, is cut off from the action and
becomes a symbol of Irish impotence.
Kathleen is married t o a man s he
doesn't love. She is depicted as an
"unawakened" woman, whose passions
would better serve the Irish struggle
than the role of wife to an overbearing
husband. When Kathleen rebels she is
beaten down (figuratively) and forced
to stay with her conqueror. She eventually falls in love with a priest named
CSUSM
Father Paul. The Kathleen and Father
Paul sections are authentically rendered
by a novelist who understands the demands of the heart and the rationalizations people give in order that they may
possess "forbidden fruit." Father Paul
finds himself losing his "lonely struggle"
for celibacy, while Kathleen continues
a rebellious war against her husband
and against a religious moral code that
insists on sex for procreative purposes
only." These segments parallel Ned's
own conflicted love affairs and his increasing involvement with the rebel
movement in Dublin.
Further in the story, Llywelyn
recounts numerous British atrocities
and the depressing lot of a people struggling for subsistence in a country they
cannot call their own. Llywelyn's historical lessons outlining British outrages from the twelfth-century to the
twentieth create a lingering distaste for
the way the conquerors, in effect, either
slaughtered or enslaved the Irish, believing that only brute force could civilize them.
By the eighteenth-century Irish beggary, homelessness, infant mortality,
malnutrition and death-dealing diseases were epidetoiic, prompting
Jonathan Swift's satirical essay, "A
Modest Proposal," suggesting that Irish
babies were dying in a useless fashion,
and it would sbe much better for the
British to buy them and eat them, "a
delicious, nourishing and wholesome
food" purchased for as little as ten shillings. To be sure, Llywelyn's Ireland is
not as harrowing a place as Swift described, but it is profoundly abused
nonetheless and the Irish plight is rendered effectively enough that most
readers will sympathize with them and
want them to repay the iron-handed,
parasitical Brits in kind. There is no
attempt at understanding the British
point of view, which may be a flaw in
Llywelyn's account. She tells us herself
that life is not a black and white affair,
but rather filled with shades of gray,
"And are there not men oil the other
side . . . is not their version of truth as
real to them?"
"1916" is fighting a war with its need to
plot events as they happened and also
portray compelling figures that can
carry the weight of the history they are
experiencing. Llywelyn's strength as a
writer is not to be found so much in creating complicated, three-dimensional
'
S
human beings as in her ability to follow a course, sewing it seamlessly into
what must have been a daunting array
of historical notes. Occasionally the
existence of her copious research calls
attention to itself as when she insists on
bringing up the nineteenth-century
Irish famine which sent millions of Irish
to early graves and millions more to
American shores. The discussion of this
sad history is given in a dialogue between Ned and another fifteen-year-old
boy and the conversation is a conversation of notes, rather than of teenagers telling each other what they know.
For such a s easoned writer
Llywelyn can be curiously flawed at
times, writing lines that are jarringly
formulaic—"He understood what she
was feeling and opened his arms. She
folded herself into his embrace like a
bird settling into its nest. They stood
holding each other, letting their bodies
do the talking." But she can also write
lines that are immaculate—"The other
Lancers lay dead at the foot of Nelson's
Pillar. High above them the admiral
stood impervious, though his nose was
freshly nicked by a rifle B ullet.... [A
woman] seated herself on the shoulder
of a dead horse and patted it solicitously, then burst into raucous song."
To Llywelyn's credit the latter descriptions are more prevalent than the
former.
She weaves the tapestry of her
story with intelligence and skill and
gives us access to a period when the
bullets flew and patriots gave their lives
for the ideal of freedom, not knowing
thatfromthe ashes of their martyrdom
"the right of the people of Ireland to the
ownership of Ireland" would be acknowledged and an Irish Republic born.

The moment I entered St. Andrews Golf
Grill in San Marcos' Old California Restaurant Row, I felt like I had stepped
onto a golf course, literally. Myfirststep
landed directly on a putting green; that
is, an artificial putting green, complete
with several holes andflags,putters and
balls supplied.
Here, would-be golfers can practice
their putting stroke while waiting for
lunch or dinner. On one side, tables line
a brick patio around the s id§ of the
green for those who just want to watch.
On the other, there's a quaint, naturalwood room that resembles a clubhouse.
I almost looked for a starter instead of
a waiter.
Old golf clubs line the walls, a niblick
(pitching wedge) with a hickory shaft
and a Stenectady putter from 1913,
along with a variety of golf memorabilia.
There are pictures of the legends of the
past to today's legends in the making.
St. Andrews Golf Grill was the concept of owner Jim Ileitis, a former golf
professional and teaching pro. Feltis
adopted the name from the Royal &
Ancient St. Andrews Golf Course in
Scotland, considered the Mecca of the
sport.
Unfortunately, though the atmosphere is birdie quality, the food is a
bogey at best.
The "scratch player" entree consisted
of grilled turkey breast covered with
jack c heese b etween t wo s lices of
toasted wheat bread. It was bland and
was served without lettuce or tomato.
The "Babe Chips" on the side looked
and tasted somewhere between a thin
steak fry and a thick potato chip. I
washed them down with a cold iced tea.
The starter, uh, server, brought me my
check, which totaled $7.91. That wasn't
too bad, but considering the plainness
of the meal, I felt I overpaid. All the
items on the menu have names pertaining to golf. There was the "Caddy Shack"
burger, char-grilled on a wheat bun for
$5.95. On the dinner menu, there was
the "Torrey Pines" primavera, fresh vegetables served on pasta, with a salad and
"Babe Chips" on the side for $9.95.
The appetizers were named after famous g olfers, i ncluding t he "Lee"
(Trevino) c hili-pepper p oppers for
$5.95 and the "Tiger" (Woods) chicken
tenders for $6.95.
A variety of beers are offered on tap,
including Guinness and Sierra Nevada.
Pints are $ 3 during happy hour (4-7
p.m.).
Basically, St. Andrews is a sports bar,
complete with pool table in the back,
several TVs and, of course, a video golf
game. Overall, it's as a fun experience.
But don't go for the food, go for the
green!

on display. The posters read: Environmental, Medical, Political, Spiritual and Cultural, pertaining to the five main aspects
of Africa that need support. For instance,
below Political, the poster asked students
to pray for leaders to may make wise decisions about funding and providing support.
After about fifteen minutes, the impact
of these stories and images had the potential to shake students to their very core. As
some students walked out of the tent with
tears in their eyes, others could hardly put
into words what they experienced. Freshman John Loeh was placed into the life
of Beatrice. Loeh said, "It was pretty sad,
especially the part where she was diagnosed and had the option to choose to save
somebody or not."
After she heard the life of Olivia, freshman Shelley Lawrence walked out of the
tent with a large red positive stamp on her
hand. Lawrence said, "I feel that education is the best way to prevent this. People
shun each other because they don't know
enough, if people learn about HIV, then it
would help."
As students walked out, ICF took donations and gave students flyers informing
them of letters they could write to local
congressmen. ICF also directed students to
their website, ivsanmarcos.org, where students can learn more about how to make an
impact themselves.
Originally, ICF had only planned to display the tent for one week; , but campus
involvement with the tent went far beyond
what ICF had ever envisioned. Therefore,
The Africa Tent will remain on campus
until Thursday, October 12.
ICF member Jaci Spencer said, "The biggest thing I hope people could take away
is this: yes there's AIDS, yes there's rape,
yes there's poverty. These are all the issues
we've heard about but it doesn't hit home
imtil we see it as it is. I want people to know
that we can do something about this and
that God does care."

"Maskmaking at CSUSM has happened before. This is thefirsttime

that it is a recurring event because
the kids really enjoyed it," said
Bigonger. Broomball is played in
a similar fashion to hockey, except
that players do not wear skates, a
ball is used in place of a puck, and
players use a rubber-tipped broom
shaped stick.

Saturday. "The Masquerade Ball

every year," says Mathews. "The

were sold out on Tuesday, October 3. It was very exciting for ASI.
The Masquerade Ball wasfreefor
students and only $15 for guests.
There were free hors d'oeuvres

Mathews. Fever Week will not
happen for another year, so plan
ahead of time. Go Cougars!

Tito Ortiz and Ken Shamrock III: the final chapter
BY FRANCISCO MACIAS
Pride Staff Writer
All of those who feel the feud in the
Ultimate Fighting Championship between
Tito Ortiz and Ken Shamrock should
finally tap out, raise your hand. One
fighter is already in the UFC Hall of Fame
and the other will soon be there—once he
decides he is done punishing his opponents. Shamrock left the sport years ago
and should have stayed gone. But due to
his first embarrassing loss to the younger,
well rounded fighter at UFC 40 Vendetta,
he came back for another embarrassing
loss. At UFC 61: Bitter Rivals, Ken Shamrock thought he was ready to win. There
was also huge hype surrounding the fight.
As part of the marketing for the fight, the
reality television show "The Ultimate
Fighter" had two teams competing under
the instruction of Ken Shamrock arid Tito
Ortiz respectively.
At UFC 61 Ortiz rained vicious elbows
over the aging Shamrock and the referee Herb Dean stopped the fight at 1:18
in the first round. The fight was deemed
controversial because Shamrock claimed
that he was okay to continue fighting. It
looked like a young punk mugging an old
man in the alley. It was sad. That entire
fight card was a waste of time and money.
It gets better folks; we now have Ortiz/
Shamrock III: the Final Chapter. The
only thing exciting this time around is
that the fight will be free on Spike TV.
UFC President Dana White does not
feel that fans should have to pay to see
this ridiculous feud once again. I have to
admit, I'm a bit curious to see what Ortiz
will do this time. Will the Huntington
Beach bad boy do his typical ground and
pound? For those of you who don't know
what ground and pound is, it's when you
take your opponent down and begin to
unload punches and elbows to their face.
It's not pretty, and Tito Ortiz has mastered it. On the other hand, Shamrock is
not a chump; he was the man back when
the UFC first started. Shamrock used to
roll over anyone who stepped into the
octagon. However, this is 2006, and Tito
Ortiz is no taxi driver walking into the
octagon. For those of you who aren't busy
on Tuesday, October 10, tune into Spike
TV for this "epic" battle. I predict Ortiz
will circle Shamrock, tire the old man out
and give him the oF ground and pound.

Men's Cross Country, Mejia win at Vanguard Inv.; Women take 2nd
Men's C.C., Mejia win at Vanguard Inv.; Women
take 2nd
In what was a terrific day for the cross-country
program, the men's team won the Vanguard Cross
Country Invitational, and the women nearly matched
that feat, settling for second.
It was only a matter of time before the men won
an event, given the team's sparkling performances
thus far. That win came on Saturday, in a field that
consisted of six teams and 62 runners total. At the
very top of those runners was Cougar Juan Mejia,
who has been nothing short of amazing this season.
Before Sunday, Mejia had already finished second at
two events on the season. At this event, Mejia blew
away the field, beating the second-place runner by
a staggering 4S seconds. His potential at Nationals
is definitely something Cougar fans can start getting
excited about.
Not to be outdone, the Cougar women nearly made
it a clean sweep for the teams, finishing just two
points behind Point Loma Nazarene. The squad's
leaders, Whitney Patton and Bonghabih Shey, came
through as usual, finishing sixth and eighth, respectively. Shey, already a star on the track tearn, has
really stepped up her cross-country performance this
year, and helped the team reach the next level.
While the very top runners gave great performances for Coach Steve Scott, just about everyone
in Cougar blue ran very well. On the men's side,
Mejia crossed the finish line first, but Phil Hoffman
was not far behind, finishing third. Ozwaldo Alvarez stepped up his game, taking seventh overall. Leo
Elorza, Thomas Thys, and Mike Crouch all finished
in the top 20 as well.
On the women's side, nine Cougars finished in the
top 30 runners, though only the team's top five runners counted for team-scoring purposes. Aside from
Patton and Shey, Aimee Bradley had a strong meet,
finishing fifteenth. Erin Hearn, Olympia Olguin,
and Jackie Maciel were not far behind, taking seventeenth, nineteenth, and twenty-first, respectively.
Overall, it was an excellent outing for both teams,
and their chances to finish strong at Nationals are
looking very good. Coach Steve Scott will take his
crew to the Fullerton Invite on October 20 for its final
regular-season meet, and then it's off to Regionals
on November 4.
Below are the full CSUSM results. Individual
places are adjusted for team-scoring purposes,
which doesn't factor in those runners who weren't
attached to colleges.

team played a very good game on
Sunday. Midfielder Tessa Smith
controlled the ball and was able
to set up opportunities for teammates, and Randi Leyva created
scoring chances throughout the
day. On the back line, Alex Quindt
played arguably her best game
of the season, and Lucia Asbury
continued to be very impressive
after making the transition from
forward to defense. Defender
Lica Martinez also played a very
strong game.
Overall it was a great effort for
the Cougars in front of fee home
crowd at Mangrum Field.
The women will try to keep the
momentum rolling on Tuesday,
when they travel to take on Claremont-McKenna College to kick
off a stretch of five consecutive
road games.
Defeating ClaremontMcKenna on Road\ 5-2
Women's Soccer Wins
Second Straight; Defeats Claremont-McKenna on Road, 5-2
October 3,2006
Though their season got off
to .a tough start, the Cal State
San Marcos women's soccer
team (3-6) appears to be turning the corner. On Tuesday,
the squad tallied a 5-2 victory
over Claremont-McKenna, its
second-straight win.
Tuesday's win marks the
first ever road victory for the
program, and it comes against
a Claremont-McKenna squad
that entered the game .with
a solid 5-3-1 record for ihe
season. Thus, the match also
marks the team's first victory
over a team with a winning
record.
CSUSM controlled the
action for most of the game.
At halftime, the Cougars led 10, courtesy of a Lucia Asbury
goal. Courtney Drummond,
who posted a hat trick in Sunday's game, drew a foul deep
in the opponent's territory, and
Kelly Wherry took the free
kick. She made the most of it,
hitting a perfect cross to the
other side of the box. The ball
found Asbury, and she volleyed
it into the top of the net past the
helpless keeper.
Early in the second half, the
Cougars built their lead to 20, with Kelly Wherry involved
again - but this time as the
goal scorer. The Cougars
earned a free kick 25 yards
out, and Wherry was chosen
again to take it. Instead of hitting a cross, Wherry struck
a beautiful shot, curling the
ball into the corner of the net
past the outstretched arms of
the keeper.
Claremont-McKenna fought
back to make the score 2-1,
but CSUSM refused to allow
them to equalize, half-way
through the second half, the
Cougars once again earned a
free kick in the offensive zone.
Lucia Asbury took it this time, but
found Kelly Wherry in the box.
Though she didn't hit the header
she intended, Wherry managed to
deflect the ball into the net for her
second goal of the game.
Not long after, the Cougars
pushed the score to 4-1. Defender
Alex Quindt hit a ball over the top
of the defense, connecting with
forward Clarissa Hidalgo. Hidalgo
struck a nice right-footed shot into
the low corner of the net to give
the Cougars a three-goal lead.
After
Claremont-McKenna
scored on a free kick of their own,
the Cougars once again answered,
removing any doubt about what
the outcome of the game would
be. Clarissa Hidalgo was responsible again, joining Kelly Wherry
as two-goal scorers for the game.
After receiving a routine pass
from Tessa Smith, Hidalgo stood
a-full 35 yards awayfromthe goal,
where she launched a rainbow shot
towards the net. The shot caught
everyone off-guard, including the
opposing keeper, who couldn't
prevent it from sailing over her
head and into the net.
The 5-2 score would hold up,
giving the Cougars another muchneeded victory.
In what was by far their most
impressive showing on offense all
year, the Cougars nearly matched
their cumulative season total for
goals scored, which stood at six
before Tuesday's game. Still,
Assistant Coach Bobby Renneisen
was quick to praise the team's back
line. Fullbacks Lucia Asbury,
Annica Perez, Alex Quindt, and
Lica Martinez played a terrific
game, limiting Claremont-McKenna's opportunities and never
allowing them to cut deeply into
the Cougars' lead.
With the squad playing its best
soccer yet, they hope to keep the
momentum rolling through four
more consecutive road games.
Next, the squad will head up to
Santa Cruz to take on U.C. Santa
Cruz on October 7, then Menlo
College the following day.

Last weekend, following the brilliant
advice from my girlfriend, we ditched
all responsibility, packed our bags and
departed north at 4:00 a.m. to spend
what would turn out to be one of the
most unforgettable weekends of our
lives surrounded by one of Nature's
most incredible landscapes.
Yosemite: one of the few places
on Earth that defies explanation. To
describe it in words is to insult it. Even
with the accompanying photos, the sheer
magnitude and splendor of the place is
lost. If you haven't been, go. If you
have only been once, go again. If you
are one of the lucky few to have visited
multiple times, let this story encourage
you to go again.
To some, an eight hour drive (one
way), 150 dollars in gas (less than three
dollars a gallon!!), and 20 to 400 dol-
lars a night for lodging, all for 36 hours
of distraction may sound ludicrous. To
others, it is just the cure for a life filled
with monotony.
Whether you're smitten and in love or
single and unattached, a trip to Yosemite—even for as little as two days—can
be one of the most memorable journeys
of your life.
So, if it's renting a beach cruiser and
gliding along the valley floor surrounded
by towering granite mountains, hiking
up the back of Half Dome to see one of
the world's most breathtaking views, or
getting attacked by fearless raccoons
as you eat your overpriced pizza and
indulge in a well-deserved drink after
a long day in paradise—your tinje spent
in Yosemite will be short lived and long
remembered.
To all you fellow Cougars: take this
writer's advice and spend at least a
weekend escaping in Yosemite, you
won't regret it.

AIDS : COMPASSION
IN A FRICA
"The AIDS Crisis: Can you
survive the journey of a child?" Intervarsity Christian Fellowship
As dusk arrives and the orange
sun disappears behind the cloudy
sky, I walk through Palm Court on
my way to begin my AIDS experience. Unsure of what to expect,
and fairly confident that the contents of the tent will have a significant impact on me, I've brought
my younger sister along with me
to share the experience.
Friendly and encouraging students from Intervarsity Christian Fellowship gather near the
entrance of the tent waiting to
greet us. We are handed headphones attached to a small media
player, and a lantern to lead us
through the night-filled tent.
"Wait in front of the curtain" we
are told. My sister goes in first.
She steps behind the fabric wall
and quickly vanishes into the caverns of the tent, only her silhouette and the diluted lantern light
can still be seen. I step in front of
the beaded curtain and turn on my
headphones. Sounds of a bustling
street, voices, and animals—all
sounds of Africa surround me,
call to me. I am instructed to go
into the next room. It is empty. I
sit down and I can still hear the
noises of Africa dancing around
me, I think I can even sense the
various smells of Africa wade
through the room. A voice comes
on. It is a man. His name is Jalima,
he will guide my journey tonight,
he tells me.
Walking into the next room I
find myself in front of three curtained doorways. There is a name
on each doorway, as there is a
name printed on my media player:
Beatrice. The voice of Beatrice
starts to speak. I cross through
Beatrice's entrance and without
realizing it, I am transported into
an entirely new world, taking on
the mindset of Beatrice.
Immediately I am introduced
to Beatrice's life. She is seven
and lives with her older, pregnant
sister. Both of her parents died
when she was younger. A series of
pictures are in front of me, giving
a face to Beatrice's name and her
fragile voice. Images of poverty
and disease, sorrow and despair,
line the makeshift walls. I proceed through the maze of Beatrice's life and stop before 3 map.
"You live in Zambia," Jalima tells
me. I read the map and learn that
Zambia has a population just over
11 million people. 1.2 million of
those inhabitants are orphaned
children, and 1.7 million of the
entire population is HIV+ or has
AIDS. As Ifinishreading statistics
about Zambia, I slowly move into
the next room. I am now standing
in Beatrice's home, a small, oneroom hut. Dirty dishes, ragged
clothes and dirt-tattered blankets
are strewn about on the ground. I
turn around and I can see a picture of her sister. "You're excited
because your sister is going to
have her baby today," Jalima tells
me. Before me is a poster with pictures of teen mothers, primitive
tools and abandoned babies. In
red letters are the words "Maternal mortality." All of the sudden
there are screams and wails playing into my ears. There is a constant cry of an infant, but the background cries are different. "Something is wrong," Jalima says. I
stop and find myself searching the
images and the imaginary scene
in my head for an answer, "Your
sister has just died in child birth,"
he answers. "No! She can't!" I
silently yell to myself.
The sound of a crying baby carries me into the next room. "Your
sister had a baby girl. They have
named her Myriam," he states.
"But no one is claiming her. Your
grandmother says she cannot
afford to feed another mouth, and
Clockwise starting with middle picture on left-hand side:

*At the end of their journey, students were encouraged to make a bracelet
to remember their experience by.
your other relatives are beginning
to back away from the infant,"
explains Jalima, a tinge of sadness weighing behind his voice.
"You stand there in silence " he
tells Beatrice, just as I stand there
listening in silence, "looking at
the tiny baby nobody wants."
What would you do if you were
Beatrice? You stand there, the
silence continuing to grow, until
something inside of you aches,
and you say, "I'll take her." How
different would your life be? Only
seven years old, orphaned, now
with a baby? You have no mother,
no father, no sister, no one at all
except this tiny new life you have
in your arms. No one wanted baby
Myriam, and now this baby needs
you more than you've ever needed
anything.
"The days go by and Myriam
will not stop crying," Jalima continues. "You have no food to give
her and no way of getting food.
Each day gets harder and harder
watching the other children in the
village run and play and attend
school. They used to be your
friends, and that used to be you.
You rummage through the streets,
scavenging for food and water for
you and little Myriam. You try to
go and work and do small things
to earn wages but Myriam doesn't
like to be away from you. She
doesn't like to be left alone, and
she cries incessantly when you
don't hold her."
"Somehow, you and Myriam
manage to survive for two years,
you cannot believe it," he says.
"But Myriam is so undernourished that she cannot sit up on her
own even though she is two years
old, and now her fingers, toes,
and eyes have become infested
with fleas and open sores. You
do your best to wash her sores as
often as you can, but you have no
clean water and wiping her eyes
only makes her cry more, and the
pus infecting her eyes just comes
right back after you wipe them.
Poor Myriam; you're not sure
how much longer she will be able
to survive, and the last two years
have taken a toll on your body as
well. Weak from starvation and
taking care of Myriam, you have

you meet a new woman. You can
see in her eyes that she is nice, and
she offers to take care of you and

The health clinic is a small room
with three wooden benches. Long

Lanterns in one hand, and holding
each other's hand with the other,
we stop in front of a prayer wall.
There are hundreds of prayers:
prayers for healing, prayers for
grace and understanding, prayers
for forgiveness and love—and for
a cure. A tear falls off my cheek
as I set my lantern down to write a
prayer. Pinning it to the wall, I am
overcome with many questions,
like why does there have to be so
much suffering in the world? So
much pain? Why is a whole continent dying from this horrible
four-letter disease: AIDS? Just
why? More importantly I was
left asking what can we do about
it? How can we stop it? And how
can we help?
Through my whole journey
that night in the tent I felt compassion for Beatrice, and tried to
contemplate what her life must
have been like. How would I
have kept faith in the face of such
disparity? How did she keep her
-faith? I guess all I can come up
with for the millions of people
affected by HIV and AIDS, for
the millions of people dying
today in Africa, the millions who
have already died, and for the
millions of people who feel compelled to do something about it,
is that there is hope.
The Africa Tent is just one way

Letter to the editor: Where's the remberance for 9/11
September 11, 2001 was a tragedy that
affected the whole world. It changed life
as we know it. O ut innocence was lost as
we watched planes barrel into the World
Trade Center buildings, as well as the
Pentagon and a field in Pennsylvania. We
watched with horror as thousands of innocent civilians found themselves in a situation that was far beyond our imaginations.
People who felt they had no other option
jumped to their deaths from 80 stories
high. Heroes ran into the buildings without thought to save as many people as they
could. The best in human character was
brought out as well as the worst.
In our local community, schools and
businesses closed. Friends and families
gathered together. We tried to find ways
to handle the rush of emotions we were
all feeling. Many of us begged, hoped, and
prayo^for people to be pulled out alive
from the rubble. Sadly, more were found
dead than alive. Five years later, we as
Americans should not allow ourselves to
forget the catastrophe that occurred that
shook us all to the core.
As an active student on this campus, I
am appalled that this sacred day was not
remembered by our college campus or its
leaders. I have been a member of Alpha
Chi Omega for the last three years, and
have been aware of ASI and other campus
events throughout this time through other
involved peers. I am now a graduate student finishing my teaching credential. My
cohorts sat in class all Monday and they
looked to me to find out if anything special had been planned for this day. Sadly, I
had nothing to report on. A special edition
of The Pride was not ¡published, a time of
remembrance was not observed, and our
precious University Hour was not utilized to bring our community of learners
together and honor those that perished on
September 11th.
I picked up a copy of The Pride on Tuesday to see if anything had been written
and I find at the very bottom of the front
page a small rectangle stating: "We Will
Remember 9-11-01." Then I turned all the
pages and found the largest, article about
alcohol and Mexican food without any
other mention of September 11. How is it
that margaritas and burritos deserve more
words in our paper than those names of
lives that paid the ultimate price?
One semester a student organization put
crosses in the grass to the east of Kellogg
Library. Each cross represented soldiers
that had passed away in the war following 9/11.1 assume that this was a form of
protest against the war. However, nothing
was done in remembrance of the 2,749
innocent victims that died five years ago! I hope that in six, ten, and even twentyfive years down the road, this University
will remind the future youth of this world
about the tragedy that happened. Youth
need to be taught that we cannot allow
something like this to happen again. This
college claims in its own mission statement
that it "exposes us to issues and traditions
of the United States and other countries."
The tradition of American patriotism and
how this attack affected other countries as
well as our own was completely ignored
on 9/11/2006. "To be responsible men and
women we must examine the moral and
ethical issues^' (University Mission Statement) that led up to that day, and helped
us survive the loss of human life. "This
history is affecting our present and will
continue to have a lasting affect on our
future. We need to understand the human
behavior, culture, values, and institutions" (University Mission Statement) that
allowed fellow human beings to commit
such horror.
I am writing this to vent, but I also want
answers. Why did the President of this
University not arrange a campus-wide
moment of silence? Why did The Pride
not publish a list of names of those that
were killed? Why did ASI not organize, a
remembrance activity during University
Hour? Why did the college staff not unite
and allow individual classes tofindappropriate ways of honoring this day? Why was
our American Flag not even lowered to
half-mast? Why was this day completely
ignored by our California State University? I, as well as cohort 77 and Alpha Chi
Omega, and the rest of the student body of
this university deserve an honest answer
to describe such senselessness.
In regards to the daily position of the
American Flag, Section 7.e of the United
States Flag code states that:
"The flag of the United States of America should be at the center and at the highest point of the group when a number of
flags of States or localities or pennants of
societies are grouped and displayed from
staffs" (emphasis added).
Unless we have misread this code, the
flag's positioning should be altered permanently and immediately to be in compliance with federal law.
Completely Disappointed,

Letter to the editor: ASI's Alumni masquerade refusal
My name is Raul Montero, I am an alum
from Gal State University San Marcos I
am writing to you because I am very disturbed and upset regarding how Alumni
are being treated by ASI.
I have been going to Masquerade Ball
for four years now, one year as an alum.
To me this is tradition, and [the] Masquerade Ball is like Homecoming for CSUSM.
I have been trying to get to the ASI office
before it closes at 5 p.m. a few different
times, [but]for a working professional it
can be very difficult to get there by that
particular time. Each time I was only late
by two tofiveminutes and ASI was closed
with nobody inside. I decided to call the
ASI office to see if there was someway to
arrange one single ticket for myself to the
Masquerade Ball. When I did call, a message was relayed to me by the receptionist
at ASI. The message was that Alumni are
not allowed to purchase or obtain tickets
for the Masquerade Ball.
First of all, I have been to Masquerade
Ball before as an alum and did not have
trouble getting a ticket. So is this a new
rule or is [ASI] just flat out lying to me?
Second, is this how the school treats
its own Alumni? By telling alumni that
they are no longer allowed at CSUSM
functions since they aren't a student anymore?
I am sorry, but this is an outrage. I have
never felt like I have been treated with
such disrespect before in my life. If anything, Alumni should be at the top of the
list, seeing that it is difficult for them to
obtain tickets to the dance because most
alumni are working professionals. Is this
what we are telling prospective students?
Sure, attend our school, but once you are
Alumni you are no longer welcome?
I honestly feel like the school has spit in
my face; and at the same time the school
is asking me for monetary contributions
to CSUSM. I really hope The Pride feels
my concern and shares it with the entire
student body, because it seems to be the
only organization on campus that isn't
spitting in the face of the Alumni.

�Drink of the Week
Mapl£ Macchiato
BY AMANDA ANDREEN
Pride Staff Writer
Here at The Pride we like to be as
accommodating as we possibly can to the
CSUSM student body, and it has come to
our attention that for some of you, drinking
just isn't your thing. That is totally fine by
us, so instead of doing our usual thing and
telling you about our new favorite alcoholbased mixed drink, we've decided to shake
things up a bit and venture into uncharted
territory for this, edition of Drink of the
Week. So, if you aren't of age yet, are
taking a week off from the bars to detox,
or just enjoy reading what the drink of the
week is, then read on my friends, read on!
For those ofyou Starbucks aficionados out
Photo by Amanda Andreen / The Pride
there, this DotW is right up your alley. And
for those of you who are anti-Starbucks or
have never experienced a Starbucks drink,
the new line of autumn-inspired drinks
at Starbucks might just tickle your fancy.
Along with the seasonal pumpkin-flavored
lattes, Frappuccinos and crème drinks,
there are also new maple syrup flavored
drinks available. This week's latest discovery is the new Maple Macchiato. And
when I say "new," I'm mean it is just within
the past week that this syrupy delight has
invaded the decorative chalkboards hanging on the walls of Starbucks Coffee Company Stores nationwide.
What is in a Maple Macchiato, you ask?
Well, if you've ever had a Caramel Macchiato, it's pretty similar; just subtract the caramel and add maple syrup and you're set. For
a 16 ounce Maple Macchiato (also known
as a Grande), your local barista would start
with three pumps of maple syrup, then add
steamed milk, two shots of espresso, a scoop
of foam, and maple drizzle, and viola! Your
very own Maple Macchiato.
I will warn you though—the Maple Macchiato isn't for amateurs. It's kind of like
drinking pancakes, and it's really just like
drinking maple syrup. Personally, I wasn't
too crazy about it; I think I'll stick with my
Caramel Macchiato, thank you very much.
But if you've ever gone to Denny's and
wished you could combine your Pancake
Slam breakfast with a hot cup of coffee,
this drink is a match made in heaven for
your taste buds. A little bit of the Maple
Macchiato goes a long way, so as with
many things in life, the general rule "less
is more" is definitely appropriate to apply
to Starbucks' Maple Macchiato. Enjoy!
Beer of the Week
Samuel Adams Octoberfest
BY DAVID BAUER
Pride Staff Writer
For almost two hundred years, the
Bavarian holiday of Oktoberfest has
been celebrated in countries around
the world. Originally created to commemorate the marriage of Crown Prince
Ludwig I to Princess Therese SaxeHildburghausen in 1810, Oktoberfest
is celebrated with drinking specially
brewed beers and traditional dishes in
large public tents.
This week marks the end of Oktoberfest; the festivities typically last 15
days until the first Sunday in October.
That not withstanding, in a continuation of our Oktoberfest celebrations, we
will look at another domestic Oktoberfest brew—Samuel Adams Octoberfest
brew.
While it may be on par with German
Oktoberfest brews such as Paulaner or
Spaten Oktoberfest-Biers, of the American Oktoberfest beers, Samuel Adams is
perhaps one of the best. It hasa beautiful, dark reddish amber, almost pumpkin color to it. It pours with a full fizzy
head that lasts for several minutes. The
beer's smell is complex, malty and
sweet; mixing a caramelflavorwith a bit
of spice.
In the tradition of Oktoberfest beers,
it is darker, stronger and spicier than its
year-round counterparts. Samuel Adams
Octoberfest is 5.4% alcohol content by
volume versus the 4.9% of the typical
Boston Lager, and it's slightly darker in
color. The beer has four malts: Crystal,
Harrington, Moravian and Munich, all
of which can clearly be tasted over the
hop's profile. It has a rich mouthfeel and
a dry but pleasant aftertaste.
Samuel Adams Octoberfest is a good
session beer, or it can be easily paired
with a variety of heartier dishes. It is
available from August through October,
as a draft and in 12 ounce bottles in six
and twelve packs.
When the Oktober- é ÊÊPÊtb
fest season comes to a
close it is always a sad- ^ ^ K f l
dening time, but this
year, it is especially
poignant time. Last
week a raging fire in
Yakima, Washington destroyed 4% of
the United States'
beer brewing hops.
While the beer
industry
Will
survive, it is an
u n f o r t u n a t e .*§
event which ^
robbed
the S
beer drinkers °
of this country of so many ©
delicious hops. &
In respect to s
both thé end of
the season and
this
terrible
loss, it's only
appropriate to
raise a glass of
Samuel Adams
Octoberfest.

Jonny Lang: Turn Around
BY AMANDA ÄNDREEN
Pride Staff Writer
Looking for an escape? Some
kind of saving grace to transport
you to an alternate frame of mind
or sense of being? Well, look
no further. Jonny Lang's "Turn
Around" is about to alleviate your
bout of existential turmoil. With a
soulful album of fiery blues, traditional twang, Southern gospel
rock and total guitar domina-
tion, don't be afraid to give good
'ol Jonny his dues when you pop
"Turn Around" into your Discman for a listen or two. "Jonny
Lang?!" you're thinking—yes,
Jonny Lang. As he proclaims on
"Anything's Possible," "don't be
deceived, anything is possible."
This latest album separates him
from his yesteryears, helping him
break free from what most of us
remember him as: a kid pop-star
that broke into the scene around
the time of Hanson and the cult
followings of boy bands.
Keeping that in mind, Jonny's
"Turn Around" has inadvertently
become the soundtrack for my
2006 whirlwind fall semester at
CSUSM. The 15 tracks act as a
wardrobe of emotions and memories, each song suiting a different
disposition. If it's a pick-me-up
or whim of inspiration you need,
then "Turn Around" has your
name written all over it. Can't
stop thinking about that special someone? Then "My Love
Remains" is the song your heart
is singing.
Ever feel like there is something more out there for you and
you just haven't been able to put
your finger on it yet? "Only a
Man" has the validation you're
looking for and will sting you
with its comfort and truth. The
beautiful duet and falsettos created by Jonny himself remind me
of a rootsy gospel country hymn,
leading me down an imaginative
path of self-discovery.
Immediately following is the
upbeat "Don't Stop (For Anything)" that will get you moving
and your soulful rock attitude
back in check. I guarantee you'll
find yourself rocking out to this
one, nodding your head and
WORKING FOR CALIFORNIA
CSU students and the faculty at our 23 universities need and deserve a learning
environment that is conducive to providing quality education. That is why the CSU is
disappointed that the California Faculty Association bargaining team did not allow its
members to evaluate the most recent proposal put on the table by the CSU, which includes:
•
•
A 24.87 percent salary increase over four years, beginning in 2006/07, contingent
upon funding of the Compact with the Governor and an additional 1 percent
augmentation for compensation
Continuation of the Faculty Early Retirement Program (FERP), reducing the
number of years from five to four
•
Incentive and equity pay program for full professors and tenure-track professors
•
No changes to ¿acuity eligibility tor PERS retirement
•
Above standard health and dental benefits totaling $ 120 million per year in
contributions by the CSU. This includes $12 million in contributions CSU will pay
for health costs for faculty during 2007-08.
•
Gradual ly increased parking fees for faculty so at the end of four years they pay the
same parking fees as students
and Michael Buble all have nothing on Jonny Lang.
Even if you're still on the fence
regarding the strikingly talented
Mr. Lang, take my advice and
give "Turn Around" a chance. It's
time to break free from your listening habits; give that worn out
Jack Johnson album a rest and
mix things up. What's the worst
that could happen?

�The Pride
covers the
San Diego
Film Festival
BY SOPHIE BRINK
Pride Staff Writer
Jason Priestly and his wife
Naomi walked the red carpet
at the Pacific Gaslamp 15 Theater, one of the key venues at
the San Diego Film Festival.
Eager filmgoers gathered outside the theater, waiting to see
the Vancouver-born actor's new
film, "Hot Tamale," in which
he plays Jude, a jewel thief
on the run. Before he was
ushered to his seat, I was
able to have a word with
Priestly, who had this to
say to the aspiring actors
at CSUSM:
"I always feel like
the
most
impor-
The Pride's interview with
J ason Priestly
tant advice to give young
actors is to study [and]
to stay in school. The
one thing that has reaped
more rewards for me as a
performer is the fact that I
took the time to go to theater school and study my
craft. The exceptions to the
rule are very few and far
between, the exceptions
being people who got off
a bus in Hollywood and
were discovered at the
counter in Schwab's drug
store. But, the reality is that
doesn't happen.
The most important
thing you can do arid the
most important respect
that you can pay your
craft as a thespian
is to study and to
understand what
it is that you're
doing.
Once
you have that
k nowledge,
you always
have that
knowledge
to , fall
b ack
o n.
The Pride's A&E editor interviews Jason Priestly at the Pacific 15 Theater.
There are always times in every
actor's career where you sort of
find yourself floundering, and
you can get lost within the material and not know what to do. But
if you have studied, and if you
have the knowledge to fall back
on, you can figure it out and the
path will become clear."
As for his own acting education, Jason Priestly studied under
Howard Fine and June Whitaker.
Starting out as a child actor in TV
commercials, Jason Priestly has
been involved in at least 36 film
and TV projects, including a roc-

kumentary he directed featuring
The Barenaked Ladies, the popular 90s prime-time soap "Beverly
Hills, 90210," and the indie film
"Die Mommie Die!" which won

�The Pride covers the San Diego Film Festival
Flying Canter brothers swoop up award
BY SOPHIE BRINK
Pride Staff Writer
The House of Blues, host of the San Diego
Film Festival Actor's Ball and Awards Ceremony, was packed with VTPs after the
weekend long celebration commenced.
An unpredictable combination of canapés,
cocktails, and RedBull fueled the enthusiasm of those in attendance. Amongst them
were Markus and Mason Canter, otherwise
known as The Flying Canter Brothers. The
Pride managed to catch up with the highflying directing duo to ask them a few questions.
The Pride: Do you have any advice for
Cal State San Marcos future filmmakers?
Markus: First and foremost, getting to
the San Diego Film Festival—it's all about
making movies, one movie at a time. You
tell a great story. Definitely tell a great
story.
Mason: Tell something that you know
Image courtesy of FCB
about, something that you have been emotionally connected to for a while; and be
passionate about it. Don't pick something
just because you think it's what everybody
wants. Pick something that's individual to
you. And, if you tell that story, if you get
it out to people in a way that connects to
them, then your audiences are going to
feel it. And it's all about emotions. The
movie business is about putting a bunch
of moments together that creates an entire
feeling [and] tells a story. Our whole thing,
what do we say? (He turns to Markus) We
always say do stuff that you're passionate
about. Get off the couch.
Markus: Making a movie, you're going
to invest anywhere from a weekend to a
few years into making afilm,depending on
what you're doing. And if you're
going to do that, you want
to focus on something that
everyday you're going to
be passionate about and
inspired to keep doing,
because after about a month or a year of
making a movie - you've spent your money
on it, and you've put your time and your
heart into it - if you haven't chosen something you really believe in, at the end of the
day you're really not going to make a great
movie.
Mason: Another thing I would love to
add is that right now we are so fortunate,
because [the] technology that we have
today, with cameras like the DVX100A
or the new HD, the 200, you can, anybody
can, go out there and be afilmmaker.And
you can make professional quality stuff.
So, it gives you the opportunity to experiment. It's not like back in the day where
16mm was really expensive and you had
to rent the camera. Get your hands on any
camera you can and experiment until you
find your voice and youfindsomething that
works for you.
Markus: I'll also say that both of us went
tofilmschool, so, and this is to whether you
went to film school or not, but ultimately
what I have seen in the mentors I have
had in my life or just the people that have
been masters in this craft [is that] it's a lifetime thing. You get better every time you
do this. Every time you pick up [a] camera
you get better. Every time you tell a story or
write something, you get better at it. So [if]
somebody starts out and they have a passion for it [and] their first movie [doesn't]
quite work out, do it again, because you
will get better each time you do it.
Mason: If you are lucky enough that there
is somebody around that you admire that is
already makingfilms,try to learn as much
as you can from them. If there's not, then
pick who your favorite filmmaker is and
leafn everything about them. Whether it's
Coppola, Spielberg, or Scorsese, whoever
it is that you love, know as much as you can
about how they made their movies and how
they got to where they are, so that you can
learnfromtheir knowledge.
The Pride: Do you have a favorite filmmaker?
Mason: We have a couple.
Markus: Being the fact that we're the
Flying Canter Brothers, obviously we love
the Coen brothers. The Coen brothers are
one of our all-time favorites. Scorsese is
[also] definitely a favorite.
Mason: Usually I always say Kubrick.
Marcus was always really into Kubrick. All
my papers in college were about Kubrick
because
visually he's amazing.
Markus:
The
way he V H B frames every image
I love it. g ^ V But there are so many
great and I B B amazing filmmakers.
It's more • •
like what movies—I
love this ^ ffik movie from this
filmmaker. I B B ^ love that one from
another
one. And we like
a l l ^ ^ ^ ^ ^ genres. We're
not
partial
to any one
genre.
Photos by Mary Foley / The Pride
Directors of the film Mason (left) and Markus (right) Canter.
We just like telling different stories in different ways, keeping it fresh.
The Pride: What made you decide to
make "Chasing the Horizon"?
Mason: We had written a movie called
"Bobby Zero" that we're getting geared up
to make, but we did a deal with Effie Brown
[Producer Effie Brown, head of Duly Noted
Inc.] who produced "Real Women Have
Curves;" She won the Independent Spirit
Award for that. And when we did our
deal with her, we knew that we had a bit
of time between the movie she was working on and when we were going to be able
to make ["Bobby Zero"]. The great thing
about "Chasing the Horizon" is that it's a
documentary and in documentaries no one
has to give you a green light but you, You
can put together a small crew of people, get
your friends together, people that you trust
that are talented, and go out there [and] find
something you want to tell a story about.
For us, it just happened to be that we're race
fans and this movie's backdrop is the Baja
1000 which is one of the most famous races
in the world. [It's] dangerous and grueling,
and people try their entire life just to try to
win [it]. They will do it year after year, after
year, after year. Luckily enough, we met
Jeff Lloyd who owns the team, and it was
his first year [in the BajalOOO]. We wanted
to tell a story that was about a guy who was
starting out from scratch, a rookie, someone who
Markus: (Breaks in.) This is the underdog
story. "Chasing the Horizon" is the ultimate
underdog story. It's a feature documentary
about a misfit, dysfunctional, rookie offroad racing team. [It follows} one
man's quest and dream of win-,
ning and
finishing this race. Filmmaking is about
humanity. It's about human beings. We
had never made a documentary and doing
a documentary is the ultimate truth. Our
bias becomes imprinted on it. But, we went
out to make this [documentary] as close to
exactly what happened as possible and ultimately that's what we did. We learned so
much as directors doing it. You're watching real, live performances in front of your
eyes, and you really get to learn what it feels
like. So, I think infilmschool, if I was starting infilmschool today and I was having a
class, I would have people go out and make
documentaries first so [they] can see what
reality looks like on film. Now that we're
going to go make "Bobby Zero," I can feel
reality better than ever, so when I see a performance and someone is performing and it
feels like a performance...
Mason: (Breaks in.) Our movie never has
a moment that feels forced. And I say that
really confidently because we spent a lot
of time to make sure that everything that
was in it was exactly how it went down. We
never asked the guys in it, like some reality
TV producers [do], "Hey, can you say that
line," or, "We need you to fight with that
guy." The reason people connect to [our
film] is because it's real.
And people did connect to "Chasing the
Horizon." Thefilmwon Best Documentary
later that evening. Expressing both their
happiness and their surprise, the Canter
brothers were defiantly flying high that
night.

VOL. X IV NO. 6
Tenure denial sparks controversy on campus
Student vouches for
von Son's teaching
credentials
BY LILLIAN POZOS
Pride Staff Writer
A n open forum was held on, Sept. 28,
following a MEChA meeting to discuss
the alleged refusal o f tenure to a professor of the World Languages Department.
Omar Yafiez and Amilcar Chavez, both
students of CSUSM, were scheduled to
hold a dual discussion, but Chavez was
allegedly legally advised not to attend the
open forum.
The forum was held to discuss whether
Carlos von Son, assistant professor of
Spanish and Latin American Literature,
was allegedly "racially discriminated"
against through the alleged refusal of his
tenure. Yafiez, the student in support of
von Son's tenure, explained his perspective on the history of von Son.
Yafiez agreed to hold the discussion if
someone would balance his arguments.
According to Yafiez, von Son is currently pursuing a lawsuit in the San Diego
court system. In his lawsuit, von Son is
allegedly accusing a female professor of
sexual harassment and a male professor of
unequal treatment. Many of the CSUSM
faculty have been subpoenaed, denying
their ability to speak about von Son, said
Yafiez.
Yafiez explained that the administrations
refusal of tenure is allegedly based on von
Son not being a good teacher according
to student course evaluations, he does not
have enough published works and he does
not do community work.
The World Language department is
focused on Spanish from Spain while von
Son stresses Spanish from Latin America,
said Yafiez. He also said, the administration holds Spanish from Latin America
lower than Spanish from Spain, contradicting von Son's teaching methods. Yafiez
believes von Son shows Mexican litera^
ture and the Mexican dialect as equals of
the material taught in the other Spanish
classes.

display in his new glass home located in

Hayes hopes that CSUSM will remain
the home for Recycle-Man in years to
come.

ASI and German Club will be sponsoring events in honor of Oktoberfest on Oct.
6 at the Kellogg Library Plaza. This will be
the second year our campus has provided
activities in observance of this German
tradition. ASI and German Club invite students and faculty to partake in this year's
Oktoberfest celebration for its recreational
enjoyment and cultural significance. Festivities for the event will be held from noon
until 1 p.m..
"Participants will be provided free food
and beverages, and there will also be a sausage toss," said Diana Wong, ASI Director of Cultural Programming. The sausage
toss will require contestants to hurl a sausage onto the top of a small cake in hopes
of winning the coveted 'Weenie Award.'
Other prizes include T-shirts and coupons
courtesy of Wienerschnitzel. Wong also
confirmed that a dance performance, provided by guests Bill and Erma Sassel, w ill
be among the event's entertainment.
There has been much speculation from
students and some faculty about the observance of Oktoberfest on our campus regarding the tradition's nature for encouraging
alcohol consumption. To uphold the spirit
of Oktoberfest, Wong commented that a
sufficient "root beer keg" would be present
so as to abide by dry campus policy.

On Tuesday, Sept. 27, the Green Team
and Blue Crew of Cal State San Marcos
thanked the students, faculty and staff
for their continual efforts and participation in the 2005 National Recyclemania
program.
CSUSM out-beat 4 6 universities and
colleges nationwide including prestigious ivy-league schools such as Har-
vard and Yale in the ten week long waste
diversion competition, accruing a 43.65
percent recycling rate o f all trash discarded on our campus. At the ceremony
honoring the campus's recycling success,
President Hayes accepted the 'RecycleMan' trophy on behalf of CSUSM.
"Attractive, yet functional," said President Hayes about the trophy. 'RecycleMan' is quite an odd blend of recycled
materials consisting of a retired bowling

In his speech, Yanez explained
that four years ago a woman filed
a complaint with the administration against von Son. The woman
allegedly said she was being sexually harassed by von Son but
the administration dropped her
case because there was not sufficient evidence. Yanez claims
the administration wants to discipline him by denying him tenure.
Yanez wants to know why the
woman's testimony is so impor-
tant to the administration now,
when the case is closed.
Yafiez has worked closely with
von Son, producing an independent film that will be shown at a
New York festival.
Being a colleague of von Son's,
Yafiez says he supports von Son's
method of teaching but not his
behavior. To explain the history
of von Son's grievances, Yafiez
said many female students have
complained. He went on to say
that many of the sexual harass-
ment complaints about von Son
have been mentioned on class
evaluations. These are not formal
complaints and are over looked,
but they are written proof.
"The denial of his tenure that
he's not a good teacher . .. its
bullshit," said Yanez.
Von Son's CSUSM home page
states that he has published five
books including "Deconstructing Myths: Parody and Irony
in Mexican Literature." It also
states his many community
activities including include the
fifth annual Main Street Oceanside Day of the Dead Celebration
on, Oct. 30.
According to the CSUSM Web
site, von Son accepted a tenuretrack teaching position as an
Assistant Professor at CSU San
Marcos in the fall of 1997. For
more information about von Son
visit, www.csusm.edu/vonSon/
activities.html.
Attempts to contact von Son
were not immediately return.

"The burden of liability would
be an issue in allowing alcohol at
the event," Wong also added. ASI
and German Club would like to
place much focus on the history
behind the event and its cultural
implications on the lifestyle of
German people.

businesses will also hosting their

adults and children. The event
will have over 4 0 bands, a Hal-
loween Costume Party, boxing
matches, traditional Bavarian
food, karaoke, carnival rides,
a sausage throwing contest, no
'beer corrals' restricting alcohol consumption, and a chance
to win a Hummer. Admissions

�Proposition 73 threatens to revoke teen privacy
I nitiative w ould mandate parental n otification of minor's abortion
BY CHRISTINE VAUGHAN
Pride Staff Writer
Proposition 73 brings controversy to the statewide ballot for
the Tuesday, Nov. 8 elections
pushing to amend the California
Constitution requiring written
notification to the parent or legal
guardian of an unemancipated,
pregnant minor at least 48 hours
before performing an abortion on
the minor.
According to the Official Voter
Information Guide, the initiative
would mandate at least a 48-hour

waiting period after the attending
physician has provided parental
notification before terminating
the minor's pregnancy. Proposition 73 defines the context of the
law with thorough definitions,
the most important of which is an
abortion, defined by the proposed
law as causing "death of the
unborn child, a child conceived
but not yet born." The intent of
the initiative is to provide parents
or legal guardians the necessary
information to help their daughters with any serious physical
complications, emotional trauma
or psychological side-effects that
may result from the abortion.
Proposition 73, which supporters
advertise as a 'Parent's Right to
Know and Child Protection,' is a
divided and controversial issue on
the ballot expected to create more
of a buzz the closer the election
comes.
A common misconception
regarding Proposition 73 is centered on whether notification
equates to consent. However,
parental consent is not required
for the minor to have the abortion. The minor has the right to
have the procedure performed or
opt to seek other options available. Opponents of Proposition 73
argue that the law limits the teen's
medical privacy and attempts to
legally mandate family communication.
Parental notification can be
side-stepped. Minors do have
the option to seek a court ordered
waiver with convincing evidence of the teen's maturity or
best interests, as determined by a
juvenile court judge. The proposition also states that an abortion may be preformed without
a waiting period in the event of
a medical emergency, defined in
the stipulations of proposed law
as: necessary to prevent "serious
risk of substantial and irreversible impairment of a major bodily
function" of the mother as result
of pregnancy.
Under the conditions of the
law, violation of these mandates
would result in monetary damages against the physician. Intentional falsification of parental
notification, by the minor, physician or third-party persons,
would be considered a misdemeanor punishable by a fine of up
to $1000. California is not alone
in this endeavor; more than 30
other states have approved similar propositions that have legalized parental notification laws for
minors seeking an abortion.
According to the Campaign for
Teen Safety website, "Ed Hurlbutt, the Regional President of
Right to Life of Central California said, 'Some families are so
unhealthy, involving the parents
would cause more problems than
it would solve.'" The proposition
could ultimately jeopardize the
teen, and the Campaign for Teen
Safety claims that supporters of
the initiative fail to recognize
that not all families are wholesome and receptive to the teen's
right to an abortion. Rebuttal to
the argument in favor of Proposition 73 states that "proponents [of
Prop. 73] believe government can
force teens to communicate with
their parents," which is ridiculous.
In contrast, A Parent's Right
to Know website, challenges the
ideology that nothing medically
happens to a child without their
parent's notification: "in California, a daughter under the age
of 18 can't get an aspirin from
the school nurse, get a flu shot,
or have a tooth pulled without a
parent knowing." Supporters are
aware that the abortion measure
is a potential wild card that could
be a big win for conservative
Republicans.
College students have an interesting advantage with Proposition 73. Unemancipated minors
to do have a voice to vote, but
young adults may easily relate to
either the benefits or flaws of this
initiative regarding teen abortions. Oct. 2 4 i s the deadline
to register to vote. Voter registration cards can be obtained
through the ASI o ffice located at
Commons 207. For further information about the approaching

On Oct. 17 a huge Career Expo will
be held at the plaza in front of Kellogg
Library from 11 a.m. to 3 p.m. In past years,
CSUSM has offered two annual career
fairs separating Graduate School recruiters from prospective employers. This year
will be unique with the Career Expo being
a union of both the Graduate/Professional
School Fair and Job Fair.
"This way students can explore both
future career options with employer
recruiters as well as graduate and professional school options with college
recruiters," said Sandra Punch, Career
Center director. The combination is a
winning recipe to accomplish two things
at once.
One hundred and sixteen recruiters are
scheduled to attend the Expo, and according to Punch, "sixty-one of those attending
are grad schools recruiters."
The Career Center advises students to
dress as if they were attending an interview;
a suit would be very impressive. If a suit isn't
possible, Punch suggests wearing a nice pair

According to a handout, students should

Punch said. If students feel unprepared,
Punch informed The Pride of four workshops scheduled to help ease the process.

�Writing Center Opens Its Doors a Little Wider
BY ZACHARY J. SIMON
Pride Staff Writer
Students who once found it difficult
to get appointments with a writing tutor
should be interested to know that, this
semester, many-more should be available.
The Pride spoke with Erin Goldwin, director of CSUSM's Writing Center about this
latest change.
Rest any fears or high hopes of striking
writing classes from the required course
list; the solution was far less drastic.
"At the beginning ofthe semester," Goldwin explained, "GEW 101 students had to
come to the writing center nine times, for
nine half-hour sessions. The change is that
they are still required to take nine tutoring
sessions, but now onlyfivehave to be from
the Writing Center, the other four utilize
an online program called 'V-Mentor'.
GEW students are still comirjg in, but significantly less than before."
Despite this syllabus change, the prospective writing tutor attends the same
class. LTWR 525 is attended by LTWR
majors primarily, yet it is open to all students. "There's no requisite major," furthermore, Goldwin added that, "There is
talk of opening another type of course for
tutoring classes of other backgrounds."
From its inception in 1991, the Writing
Center has always been available to all.
If students needing help with science and
business classes ever felt edged out, it was
certainly not a matter of bias, as Goldwin
saw it. "With the growth in student population," 600 GEW students this semester
by her estimation, "there were so many
appointments that students couldn't get in.
Now, there are a lot more for everybody."
When asked if this was the main motiva- (Learning Assistance?) a student services

Goldwin believes the biggest differences vice is an underlying apprehension over
are often dependent on where the center is whether a tutor contradicts a professor's
"housed". Our Writing Center is part of instructions.
"It's common for professors to misunderstand what we do." Goldwin acknowledged. "There's tension, especially in
LTWR, some professors will get offended
that the need for a Writing Center reflects
poorly on their ability, which it doesn't
at all. But that's something we've always
dealt with."
Mr. Sebring related to this experience
entirely.
"At Palomar there were both pros and
cons, some professors were supportive and
some preferred students not go. I'd assume
they'd support it simply because it gives
them additional resources."
Director Goldwin was also quick to
point out that "One of the philosophies
behind the center is that the tutor is not
an authority on the writing. The tutors are
here to.. .help them find a direction. We're
here to give feedback, but rarely a definite
answer. A tutor should never say 'you're
writing this wrong.' In the manual it specifically notes that they're not supposed to
talk about grades."
Even as it seems unavoidable to tempt
conundrums within the service, those who
felt ill-prepared for college writing would
hardly be offended to know that many
High Schools are establishing services
of their own amid the growing number
of professional centers. In Mr. Sebring's
experience students often "won't realize
they're having trouble until its way too
late. They're in doubt of what's going on,
(they don't know) that the center is here,
they struggle on when they could have
gotten some help."

our Writing Center's tutoring, see (website).

to have to trust me
when I tell you that
I predicted an 1-5
World Series between
^
•
the Padres and the
Angels.
Sometimes good things happen when
you don't deserve them to happen. The
San Diego Padres are a perfect example
of that.
The Padres have won an invitation to the
MLB playoffs that start this week because
they won the National League Western
Division. However, when you look around
the league at the teams with significantly
better records who are out of the playoffs, it is easy to say that the Padres don't
deserve a birth to the postseason. If the
Padres were in any other division they
would havefinishedin the bottom half and
talks of playoffs would have disappeared
in mid-July.
I guess I have to stick with my original prediction of a Padres-Angels World
Series since both teams are still alive. I
am confident with the Angels making the
World Series but the Padres are an entirely
different story.
The common prediction is that the
Padres will be eliminated in thefirstround
because they have to face the St Louis
Cardinals. The Cardinals were the best
team in the National League this year and
they were the National League Champions
last year before losing to the Red Sox in
the World Series. However, I can see some
rays of hope for the friars.
To begin with the Padres won the season
series against the Cardinals four-to-three
(three-of-four in St. Louis). Also, the Cardinals are a battered team. Their all-star
third baseman, Scott Rolen, is out for the
playoffs. Larry Walker, their starting rightfielder, is on a day-to-day basis with his neck
which means one day he could hit a couple
homers, but the next day he couldn't even
bend down to pick up a bat. Also, Reggie
Sanders, their starting left-fielder, has been
in a gigantic slump since returning from
the disabled list in mid-September.
With all of those injuries the Cardinals still, without a doubt, pose a threat
because of two players by the name of
Albert Pujols apd Jim Edmonds. Pujols is
arguably the best player in the majors, but
he can be contained by keeping the batters in front of him off the bases so Pujols
doesn't get a chance to do more damage
than he is capable. Generally, the person
who bats in front of Pujols is Edmonds.
Edmonds is dangerous at the plate and in
the field as he is arguably the best centerfielder in baseball.
The Cardinals pitching staff isn't as
menacing as some people think. The
Padres fare well against right-handed
pitchers and the Cardinals will most
likely have a three man pitching rotation
of right-handed Chris Carpenter, righthanded Matt Morris, and left-handed
Mark Mulder.
If the Padres somehow find a way to get
past St. Louis then they will face either the
Atlanta Braves or the Houston Astros.
I would feel much more comfortable facing the Braves since the Padres
took five-of-six (two-of-three in Atlanta)
during the regular season. The Padres
only went three-and-four (one-of-four in
Houston) against the Astros during the
regular season.
The Braves are an easily beatable team
because they have a weak bullpen and a
starting pitching staff that is really built
for a long season and not a short five or
seven game series. Not to mention the
Braves also have a young team that relies
heavily on rookies who have no playoff
experience.
The Astros on the other hand pose the
biggest threat because of their starting
pitching. The Astros boast a trifecta starting staff of Roy Oswalt, Andy Pettitte, and
Roger Clemens. Those three guys could
be the ace on any team in baseball and as
the baseball saying goes, "pitching wins
championships." However, the Astros have
a weak offense and in the playoffs a team
needs to score at least four-runs a game to
be competitive.
Ahh screw it, who am I kidding? The
Padres will lose in thefirstround. But hey,
at least they made the playoffs and I can't
wait till next season.

�A parking riddle
BY CATHIE SARNECKY
Special to The Pride
"What has: 114 parts (81 normal and 33
blue); suddenly appeared in August; was
a well-kept secret for about 3 weeks; and
is used by faculty/staff, and students (but
mostly the former)?"
If you guessed the new parking lot
behind the under-construction Business
building, you were right. It is General Lot
H and for the 81 students who discovered
it during the early weeks of the semester, it
spelled freedom from arriving huffing and
puffing after trekking up the hill and the
stairs. You exit your car, walk about 100
yards onflatground and stroll past the designated smoking area (warning: start holding your breath as you step o ff the asphalt)
and you walk right into either Science Hall
(A) or Academic Hall.
I noticed an anomaly this week. My
"discovery" had become full even by 8:00
(I don't have classes 'til 10, but this jewel
was worth getting up early) and most of
the cars were faculty/staff. At the same
time, the usually packed faculty lot about
another 100 yards to the right of the Parking Services Building had 2 or 3 empty
rows. Hmmmm, perhaps it was just a
coincidence! We shouldn't begrudge the
purveyors of our education a parking spot
that would reduce their walk by perhaps 15
or 20 seconds. After all, they pay to park
too.
Then there is the issue of 33 handicapped spaces in a lot of 114. I decided I'd
better go to the source to find an answer to
that disproportionate figure. 1 dropped by
the Parking Services office and spoke with
Robert Williams, the Coordinator, who can
"talk parking all day." Robert explained
that one reason "H" was such a secret is
that when it was reported to the "Loop" for
e-mail distribution, the only way to read
about it was to notice the "Click here for
news about parking."
Here is an abbreviated version of that
report: a) Parking Lot H is temporary and

A bar on campus could help with student safely

reasons why we should have a bar at Cal
State San Marcos. The first is due to the

With all the construction planned in
CSUSM's future, how about building a
place for students to relax after class, a place
to ease the tensions of exams - a bar?
Now, it's true that this suggestion
appears to fly in the face of the polices
toward alcohol that the campus has put
forth in recent years, yet there are good
college, where people come, go to class,
and leave. An on-campus bar would make
a great place for students to interact and
get to know each other. N o matter what
you may think of bars personally, for many
people they are places to relax - or pick
up a date - and it would be nice to have a
place that students could go, have a drink,

and hang out after class.
The second reason we should have an
on-campus bar at CSUSM oddly enough
has to do with many of the concerns that
the campus has recently expressed over
the drinking habits of the student body.
Cal State San Marcos was one of a number
of state campuses to receive a substantial
grant in January of 2005 aimed at curbing
alcohol abuse among students. With the
money received from the grant CSUSM
plans to identify the drinking habits of students when o ff campus and especially in
the surrounding community. Although the
somewhat shadowy details of this ongoing
plan seem more than a bit intrusive into
the outside lives of students, its ultimate
goal of deterring irresponsible drinking is
an important one, especially as CSUSM
continues to grow.
A s fascist as it may sound, Cal State San
Marcos could regulate negative incidents
related to drinking by having a bar on
campus. Students Would not have to travel
* elsewhere to drink after class, which is a
What i
key safety issue. A bar on campus could
also limit the number of drinks a student
could have and would ensure that an only
twenty-one and up age group was allowed
access. Students are going to drink no
matter what, so you might as well have
them do it where there can be actual control and regulation.
The current alcohol policy at CSUSM
expressly prohibits the possession or sale
of alcohol on campus without prior consent from the campus President. So having
a bar on campus would have to be approved
by the President, yet should not be a problem if CSUSM were to look to the many
colleges that actually have such establishments on campus.
It is unfortunate that drinking has
attracted such negativity about it when it
comes to college students, and having a bar
on campus is going to be controversial no
matter how you present it. Yet the idea of
having an on-campus bar at Cal State San
Marcos is not without some merit. What
do you think? schra009@csusm.edu

��Foo Fighters
come
town
BY AMIRA EL-KH AOULI
Special to The Pride
"I predict a riot, I predict a
riot."
Even though a riot was predicted, it never showed its face.
As this time around the San
Diego audience was a bit fickle.
At the Foo Fighters, Weezer and
Kaiser Chiefs concert many fans
seemed indifferent towards these
talented bands.
Wait, I take that back. One
circle pit attempted to create a
following. Maybe it's because
the Tuesday night concert-loving
crowd was thinking about work
or school in the morning but
there was much to be appreciated
at this show.
Before I get to the bands, let
me note the production crew did
a phenomenal job with the lighting and stage set-up that night.
The Weezer set was exceptional
because everything was over the
top. Lighting switched focus from
the band to the audience and back
again. There were even three different backdrops accentuating thé
stage. One, a giant version of the
cover art from the band's latest
album "Make Believe," the next
exemplified a starry night and
last was the Weezer "W" flashing
in golden lights.
It was quite a change from the
Kaiser Chiefs set, which didn't
have much flash or pizzazz, but
it did have heart. Watching them
is like watching an old punk rock
video, with each member jumping up and down the stage. I was
excited to hear such songs as "I
predict a Riot" and "Oh My God"
performed.
Kaiser Chiefs is comprised of
singer Ricky Wilson, guitarist
Andrew White, bassist Simon
Rix, keyboardist Nick Baines and
drummer Nick Hodgson. I was
pleased with their performance.
Weezer was a disappointment,
with newer songs "Beverly Hills"
and "We Are All on Drugs" just
doesn't do it for me. They seem
too shallow to be coupled with
Foo Fighters. The sound quality wasn't as good as listening
to their studio-produced recordings and the light show was what
kept me entertained. I personally
would not suggest seeing Weezer
in concert.
After a much anticipated wait
came Dave Grohl and the rest of
the Foo Fighters (guitarist Chris
Shiflett, bassist Nate Mendel and
drummer Taylor Hawkins).
Grohl was all about audience
interaction. Besides his trademark playing in the audience and
jumping all over the set, he gave
a shout-out to a particular fan
that went on stage and exposed
his balls at a previous San Diego
concert. He even encouraged a
repeat of the stunt. Though a fan
made it on stage, he didn't listen
to Grohl's instructions.
The Foo Fighters were a great
treat and Grohl even stated he
wanted to perform more shows in
our country's finest city.
