EDITOR IN CHIEF
After nearly a decade of
hosting commencement off
campus, Spring 2011 graduates will now enjoy the honor
of celebrating their graduation
ceremony on home ground.
On May 2011, three graduation ceremonies will be held at
the Mangrum Track and Field
allowing seating for approximately 3,000 guests. Guests do
not require tickets, but students
are suggested to bring immediate family only or no more than
10 guests each. Seating is on
a first come, first serve basis.
Each graduate needs tofillout
an RSVP form confirming attendance to walk for graduation and
informing the Commencement
Office of how many guests each
graduate anticipates will attend.
Submit an RSVP form by visiting
www.csusm.edu/commencement.
Although graduation may
seem months away, making early preparations help the big day
run smoother. Gradfest, a special
"Grad only" event offers graduates cap and gown sales, photo
frames for diplomas, class rings,
photography packages and everything that a graduate would need.
Gradfest will be held March 15,10
a.m. - 4 p.m., March 16,10 a.m.
- 7 p.m., and March 17,10 a.m. 4 p.m. at the Clarke Field House
in the Grand Salon. The University Store will also sell caps and
gowns later on in the semester.
Graduation announcements
may be also purchased online
through Herff Jones by visiting
www.herffjones ,
c o m / c o l l eg t i c s u s m .
Graduates earning academic
honors receive a gold cord , on
the day of their ceremony. These
honors are calculated based on
the semester prior to graduation. Overall grade point average (GPA) and institutional GPA,
the lower of the two, determine
eligibility for academic honors.
Magna cum laude 3,70 - 3.89
Summa cum laude 3.90 - 4tOQ
Ceremony schedules vary
depending on major. For a complete list of times, please visit
the commencement website.
Though graduation inspires
celebratory behavior, CSUSM
prohibits the consumption
of alcohol on campus property, including all parking lots.

I NTERNET CENSORSHIP BILL H EADING BACK T O SENATE
SENATE T O REVIEW BILL THAT WOULD CHANGE THE INTERNET
JIMMY PIRAINO
PRIDE STAFF WRITER
Combating Online Infringement and Counterfeits Act (COICA), if passed, would allow the
Attorney General to target "Internet sites dedicated to infringing activities." This act would
include websites both in and outside the country. This includes
any site that has "no demonstrable, commercially significant purpose or use other than unlawful
sharing of copyrighted material."
While there is no debate on
whether these sites targeted are
indeed acting outside the law,
there is concern that the Attorney General's ability to re-
moved whatever site he deems
"inappropriate" would be outside of constitutional bounds.
Opposition to the bill claims
it leads the U.S. down a torrid
path lined with censorship. After condemning countries such
as China for their regular practice of internet censorship, a
bill that would allow for similar
practices does not seem ideal.
The largest issue with the present bill is that the criteria for examining a site is extremely broad,
which gives many legitimate
websites a cause for concern.
The site Dropbox.com is one
such company that would come
under fire should such a bill be
passed. Dropbox is an online storage site where users can upload
and store files as an alternative to
physical storage. But under this
new act, Dropbox would be in violation of storing illegal copies of
copyrighted material, due to random users uploading and storing
thefilesusing Dropbox's services.
Also at risk are revenues from
ad services such as AdSense by
Google. The small text ads that appear on the majority of sites now
would be banned from advertising on the sites deemed illegal. As
ads are Google's major source of
income, the bill could have a drastic effect on the search giant's revenue stream in the years to come.
While the bill has caused concern for many website admins and
Internet users alike, there is little
to no chance that it will be passed,
or even examined, before the end for a media outlet that has been
of the current session of Congress. largely unregulated until now.
The most outspoken critic of
the bill is Senator Ron Wyden (DOR), who described the COICA
as "using a bunker-busting cluster
bomb when what you really need
is a precision-guided missile/'
The bill's creation has been
met with thunderous applause
from the music and film industries, who have been lobbying
for stricter control over illegal
download of copyrighted material
from thé government for years.
Whether or not the bill passes,
its inception marks a change in
the relationship between government and the internet. It marks Photo courtesy of dynamicbusiness .com .au
the beginning of a new era of potential censorship and regulation

�Healthy eating h azards: How to s py the bad stuff in " good" f oods
ASHLEY DAY
A&E EDITOR
Upon arrival at a university,
new levels of stress can wear
down your immune system. One
way to cut out unnecessary stress
is to examine your diet—-reading
the nutrition labels on your favorite study snacks can help you
spot unhealthy amounts of sugar,
fat, and sodium that can slow
you down and stress you out.
Many incoming students
dread the inexplicable freshman
15 and seek ways to avoid gaining weight during their college
career. Students do not always
understand the difference between advertising slogans and
actual health food. Food manufacturers label their goods with
false advertisements so they can
reel the consumer into buying the
item. Some foods are labeled with
colorful signs that read "all natural," "supports immune system,"
"Og trans fat" and "low in sugar." These advertisements trick
the buyer into thinking the item
is better for them, when in fact
the item includes high amounts
of other unhealthy ingredients.
Of the foods that read "low
sugar" there may be different
forms of sugar included in the
item that are unlisted in the nutritional information sidebar.
"Sugar masquerades under
a variety of guises, such as dextrose, fructose, concentrates,
glucose... and maltose," healthy
living adviser, Pooja Mottl said.
The nutritional information
bar does not list these added sugars, but the ingredient label does.
The problem is most people do
not know how to pronounce these
ingredients, let alone understand what these complicated
names mean for their health.
"The Food and Drug
• Administration (FDA)
has refused to include
an 'added sugars' line
(in grams) within
the 'sugars' section," Mottl
explained.
This tricks the consumer into
thinking an item has less
sugar than it actually does.
Furthermore, terms like "all
natural" are vague. What part of
the product is "natural?" "Anyone
can put the term 'natural' on most
foods, since the FDA has no formal definition
of the term
and doesn't
r egulate
or
rector
of
EatingWell
Media
Group
said.
When grocery shopping, students trying to stayfit/loseweight
must be wary of these labels.
CSUSM's Wellness Center can
help you understand how to stay
healthy while in school. "At the
HOPE & Wellness Center, we
assist students to create a plan
on eating healthy and emphasize physical activity/exercising
as part of that plan to maintain a
healthy lifestyle, and that it's not
just about losing weight," Cathy
Nguyen, health and H.OPJB. &
Wellness Center coordinator said.
The Wellness Center is very
beneficial to students who
would like to formulate a
healthy lifestyle. Students
think many items marketed as 'healthy' are
truly healthy, but the
Wellness Center
helps you see past
that. Common
'healthy' beverages, like
juices, teas
and smoothies deemed better for
you than a soda are actually quite
the opposite "VitaminWater is
actually not nutritious at all. One
bottle can contain...almost the
same amount of sugar in a can
of C oke" Nguyen continued.
"To set up success for healthy
dining, students must plan ahead.
Bringing food from home is always best because you can control the amount of food that you
plan to eat," Nguyen added.
Beware of false advertisement, portion size and foods
labeled nutritious because the
foods you thought were healthier
choices could be cloaked in lies!

The more times you visit a
place, the more you begin to
notice the details that contribute to its character and identity.
For me, that place is Oslo, Norway, the city in which my lovely
girlfriend and CSUSM alumnus
lives. As this trip marked my third
time visiting Oslo, I began to see
what the locals of this renowned
city always call "the real city."
Although the tourist traps tend
to attract most who visit Norway, those locations still have
their enchantments. Though Oslo
goes unnoticed by many a Eu-

ropean traveler, it has become
one of the most romantic places
in the world. See it with someone you love—or someone you
are planning to fall in love with.
Aker Brygge, an area consisting of docks, former warehouses
and storage buildings lining the
Oslo-fjord, has become the city's
center attraction. Bustling restaurants, businesses and a shopping
mall have overtaken the old fishing center. A visit in the summer
can land you on a posh, floating
bar on the water, but a winter visit
might be even more romantic:

tios lining the docks. The booths
are lined with cozy Norwegian
furs and heat lamps are plentiful. Meanwhile, you are treated
to a view of the snow-glazed
coast and calm Norwegian sea.
Norway has the world's wealthiest per-capita income, and the
scenery reflects those numbers.
The "T-bane," the city's subway
system, features new trains built
by Porsche. Sleek, elegant and
very fast, the T-bane can take you
across the city in no time. Even
so, I have found that the Trikk—
the older trolley system—can be
a much more exciting way to get
to your destination. Magnificent
views are always abundant, featuring views of Oslo's many old
Norwegian
buildings and sights like Holmenkollen, the fantastic modern ski
jump perched on a mountainside.
If you are riding the T-bane
to a restaurant, hopefully it's authentic Norwegian cuisine! The
cold fish, shrimp or Brie cheese
sandwiches are delicious, and
sliced bread and "brunost"—
brown cheese—are a must-try.
I still have yet to gather the guts
to taste Norwegian reindeer stew,
but eating fishballs with steamed
potatoes and vegetables covered
in white sauce makes me feel
like a local. If traditional food
isn't on your menu, Oslo features
some of the world's finest ethnic
cuisines. This time around, we

the middle of the city served the

THE PRIDE
FEMALE F RONTRUNNERS F IGHT CRIME W I T H C HARM
SANDRA CHALMERS
EDITOR IN CHIEF
An escalating amount of
primetime television shows lead
with strong female characters
that resolve mysterious murders
with bold intuition and beauty.
"Fringe" (2008), created by
J J . Abrams, director and creator
of hit television show "Lost,"
and film "Cloverfield" (2008),
brings the world of impossible
science into reality. Character
Olivia Dunham, played by gutsy
blonde Anna Torv, works for the
FBI, specializing in the Fringe
Division, a task force focused
on cases of extreme abnormality.
Torv leads the show by fighting
genetic mutations, a parallel universe and of course chasing bad
guys *with her long blonde hair
easily blowing in the wind. Sexy
co-star, Peter Bishop, played by
Joshua Jackson (Yes, from "Dawson's Creek"), brings out a romantic side of Torv, as the hard-edged
FBI agent softens when she falls
for Bishop. But viewers don't
think twice about who wears
the pants in the relationship,
Torv definitely holds the reins.
Another leading lady in prime
time includes Kate Beckett, in
the hit dramatic comedy, "Castle" (2009). Beckett, played by
Stana Katie is a leading homicide
detective for the New York Police Department. Solving crime
in New York City includes plots
twists that no one can anticipate.
Katie plays a sharp, sarcastic
and witty character that wins the
heart of famous novelist, Richard
Castle, played by Nathan Fillion.
Fillion finds inspiration from
Katie for his upcoming novel
and can lighten the mood of any
murder scene with comedic relief. Katie is a clear contrast from
the fun energetic Fillion, but the
chemistry between the two characters keeps viewers on their toes.
Annie Frost knows how to
keep up with the boys, as a U.S.
Marshall in Dallas, Texas, Frost,
played by Kelli Giddish in the
high action series, "Chase"
(2010). Well-known executive director, Jerry Bruckheimer,
placed petite Giddish as a lead
character, but don't let her feminine charm fool you. She plays
a fierce female justice seeker.
"Giddish stars as the lead manhunter, who can hold her own
against a perp twice her size,"
stated a review by Variety. Texas
accents and cowboy boots haunt
almost every action scene, but
don't expect any romance in this
series, Giddish prefers to indulge
in gunfights and even fist fights.
In solving crime, Allison Dubois doesn't need forensic evidence. She solves crimes in her
sleep. Dubois, played by Patricia
Arquette, a homicide consultant
working for the District Attorney in Phoenix, Arizona, uses
her supernatural instincts to uncover truths about crime scenes
in the popular series "Medium"
(2005). Once harshly judged for
her strange talent, this daring diva
uses her dreams tofindculprits of
despicable crimes. Dubois juggles a family life, career and her
psychic abilities with cool confidence and stunning composure.

HAPPY HOUR OF THE WEEK: THE 55 YARD LlfìE
fi nORTH COUriTY HOTSPOT
BEN DEARINGER
PRIDE STAFF WRITER
Interested in a place where you
get some great deals on food and
drinks no matter what night of the
week it is? Just drive over to the
historic Old California Restaurant Row, to The 55 Yardline, located within two miles from campus on San Marcos Boulevard.
This local North County bar
and grill has been open since
2003 and is the perfect place to
grab a beer, watch a game, play
some pool or even play some
electronic golf on their classic
Golden Tee arcade game. The 55
Yardline offers a large variety of
breakfast, lunch and dinner options, but the happy hour specials draw in the massive crowds.
Every day, the bar has something for everyone (Sorry, there is
no happy hour on Friday through
Sunday, although the bar still offers drink specials). Happy hour
is offered from 4 p.m. - 7 p.m.,
and the specials range from $2.75
for a pint of a delicious domestic brew on Mondays to $3 for
any Mexican beer on Tuesdays.
Thursday is college night, and it
is, a perfect place to go for those
who are short on cash. They offer any well drink or domestic
draft for only $2.75. But wait,
there's more, The 55 Yardline has
something to offer trivia buffs as
well. Wednesday nights, starting directly after happy hour,
the bar has a trivia competition
that anyone can enter. Play as a
team or individually, it doesn't
matter! The bar offers prizes to
the top three places. First place
receives a $45 gift certificate
for their next visit, second place
receives $25 and third place receives $10. So why not test your
knowledge in categories such as
geography, pop culture, science,
politics and other categories?
Not a trivia whiz? Do not
fret, The 55 Yardline has over 24
TVs and televises almost every
sporting event. This is the place
to be for all your different sport
watching cravings, such as the
NFL's Super Bowl XLV, basketball, soccer or UFC. Make sure
to arrive early because seating
is fairly limited. Sports memorabilia covers the dimly lit sports
bar fromfloorto ceiling and takes
anyone back throughout the history of San Diego sports culture.
So if you are stuck in North
County on a weekday night, you
don't have much cash to spend,
and you are looking for a great
time, head over to The 55 Yardline. Sorry to those of you who are
not 21 yet; staff checks identification at the door as soon as happy
hour begins. Though, you may
still go early to practice shooting pool or to just watch a game.
Located at 1020 W. San
Marcos Blvd., St. 114, San
Marcos, CA 92078. (760) 7441960. Open until 1 a.m. daily.

It's time to fight the thirteen-unit restriction
see the injustice of t his situation. We are p aying more,
and getting less. If the school
is not going t o stick to these
goals, maybe it is time to
reevaluate them and be honest
about the fact that the student,
the teacher, and the quality of
education are not a priority.
The email o ffhandedly mentions that this is supposed to
help classes. But t his is only a
t emporary solution to a growing problem. When I was a
f reshman, I did not sign up f or
these cutbacks or expect that
my campus would so easily
discard my desire to l earn.
On the CSUSM homepage,
our school claims to b e "Roaring into Our 20s." T his must
be some kind of j oke. Sure,
i t's a milestone, but t here is
not much t o celebrate if a fter
twenty years the school is cutting back on student p rogress.
Now is the t ime to get
involved and make s omething
happen f or the better. It is t ime
to ask of our elected ASI o fficials t o f ight for the s tudents,
like they promised us d uring
the elections. Every person
can get involved by signing up
at www.savecsusm.org, where
we can rally together to show
that we care.
If we let these l imits walk
all over us, it is going t o keep
happening. Those behind them
are going to keep cutting back
because they know they can.
It is t ime to get our heads out
of the sand. We cannot be the
change our f uture needs if we
cannot get a decent education.
you can do, two things, either or
both of which will definitely make
you a happier person and each of
which take very little time.
First, keep a gratitude journal. A couple of times each week
(put these on your weekly calendar), take two minutes and write
down 5 things that you feel grateful for at that moment. They can
be anything from thè most trivial
(like this weather or that bagel),
to your feelings about the people
who have loved you, to your deepest feelings about God or nature.
Write down 5 things, and as you
do, try to actually feel the sense
of good fortune and gratitude for
each of them. That's it! Simple!
Second, if you want to try something really powerful, think of one
person that you feel very grateful to for being in your life, now
or in the past. Write a one-page
letter to that person, thanking the
person for what s/he has meant
And when you do think about to you. Tell him/her specifically
these things, and try to picture that why you feel grateful to him/her
person or thing vividly, you might and how lucky or blessed you feel

into it, even if it feels "corny" or
So here's what the research says "lame." Then, at some point if
you can possibly do so, read the
letter out loud to that person. If
you can't do it face to face, do it
on the phone. Guarantee: you will
both feel wonderful!
So there you go, two simple
exercises. Try either one or both.
Amazingly, even doing a gratitude
journal entry a couple of times a
week will, I'm positive, make you
a happier person.
Counseling Services here at Cal
State are available to all students
at no charge. You don't have to
have a 'mental illness' to see us.
Many students come when they
are struggling with the common
stresses of college life, especially
when these are 'getting in the
way'. Many students use our services as an opportunity to learn
more about themselves and grow
as people. Confidential conversations with a professional can be
a special opportunity to be completely honest with yourself with
someone who won't judge you and
who will strive to support your
happiness and success. If you
would like to make an appointment, call 750-4910.

Senior Staff Writer
Adults have always
told me the youth are
the f uture. Yet once
again, the campus
wronged the students. The f urloughs
and tuition hikes
were not enough
I suppose, and I am l eft to
wonder what kind of f uture is
being set up for us.
On October 6 ,1 got an email
i nforming me that I will only
b e able to apply for 13-units
this spring. So, despite the
extra $624 we all had to pay,
and the cutbacks made in
class time, we have to bear
the burden of a f ailing economy by letting our education
s uffer.
The only thing more distressing than these cutbacks
is the lack of outcry I have
seen f rom students. Unless I
was the only person emailed,
I cannot f ind a reason why
we as a student body have not
done anything to change this.
If you are on the fence or not
sure of what is going on, now
is the t ime to get f ired up.

THE PRIDE
Campus holds celebration for sponsors of
new Social and Behavioral Sciences building
BY MAEVE CAMPLISSON
Pride Staff Writer
On Sept. 24, 2009, local dignitaries and campus benefactors-gathered in the framework
of what will be the new Social
and Behavioral Sciences building to sign a decorative beam.
Vice President of University Advancement, Neal Hoss,
thanked the signers for their
contributions and said that the
beam "will be on permanent
display" in the building once
construction is complete.
Karen Haynes, University
President said, "It is particu-
larly noteworthy that even in
these d ifficult fiscal times,
we were able to convince our
system to provide us through
the bond money with f unding
to move this project forward."
Both speakers mentioned
the need for more f unding as
well as describing the honor
roll and naming o pportunities within the building for all
sponsors.
Vivian Bennett represented
the Social and Behavioral Sciences Faculty. She said faculty
in her department "empower
citizens by teaching them critical thinking about the common
good," and a new building for
them will benefit the campus
and surrounding community.
Chris Devers, chairman of
the Pauma Band of Luiseno
Indians, reminded attendees,
"This i s Luiseno land," and
he hoped the building would

THE PRIDE
Matt Haimovitz
BY AMY SALISBURY
Copy Editor
Classical music's reputation
precedes the genre. We've all
heard of the Mozart effect. Studies show that Mozart's compositions administered in daily
doses boosts a child's developing intellect. Beethoven allegedly enhances creativity. And
best of all, according to the
Francis Payne Bolton School of
Nursing in Cleveland, listening
to Vivaldi post-op will actually promote healing and patient
wellbeing.
Current musical stylings like
hip-hop and the endless variants
of rock do little to advance relaxation or IQs. Besides, the only
classical music present in the 21st
century seems to be snippets of
Debussy's Claire de Lune or an
abridged version of J.C. Bach's
Cello Suite No. 1 in car commercials (travesty, I know).
So, knowing how beneficial
classical composition seems
to be, why aren't there modern
composers and musicians perpetuating this positivity? There
are, I promise. The "golden age"
of classical music may have
come and gone, but there is a
man versed in classical repertoire breathing new life into the
field.
Matt Haimovitz, a 38-yearold cellist born in Israel, made
his performance debut at 13 as
a soloist with the Israel Philharmonic after intense training
in Palo Alto, California by the
world-renowned cellist Irene
Sharp. At 17, Haimovitz and his
family moved back to the States
and he performed with the Chicago and New York Philharmonic orchestras. He also signed
an exclusive recording contract
with Deutsche Grammophon
Gesellschaft, a German classical
record company, and received
several awards for his work with
the label.
In 1996, upon graduation from
Harvard, he terminated his contract with Deutsche Grammophon out of a desire to explore
non-standard styles of classical music. His variations were
a success in (of all places) rock
venues, and he went on to found
his own record label, Oxingale.
Haimovitz does not record any
original works. In his newest
approach, he creates variants of
established pieces by modern
artists like Elliott Carter, Ana
Sokolovic, and Steven Stucky,
and infuses them with electronic
styling.
Haimovitz's most recent
release, Figment, is the perfect album to help temper your
tastes if you aren't ready to dive
head first into a symphony. The
album's first track, "Figlude," is
a pulsating hybrid of synth hits
mixed with a cello piece by composer Socalled.
Though Haimovitz's real
claim to fame is his incredible

technical skill, his innovative
approach toward classical music
bridges the musical generation
gap between the 19th and 21st
centuries.
Still can't handle heavy classi-
cal music? Check out his version
of "Kashmir" by Led Zeppelin
off his 2005 release Goulash.

Pride fashion Hps
W hat to see on D VD
BY BLAINE H MOGIL
Pride Staff Writer
"House Bunny" starring Anna
Faris as Shelly Darlingson in the title
role takes place at a fictional college
and his is a perfect vehicle for Fans'
comedic skills. Faris may never reach
the comedic heights of a Lucille Ball,
but that doesn't lessen the solid talent
she consistently brings to the screen.
She has great timing and a real gift
for comedy,fromsatire to slapstick.
In this film, a group of sorority
nerdettes might lose their house due
to a lack of pledges. The Playboy
mansion, Shelley's home, sends her
away through the underhanded work
of arivalbunny. As she wanders the
streets not knowing what to do or
where to go, she ends up finding her
real place at the Zeta sorority house.
The plot here is fairly derivative,
but the writers Karen McCullah Lutz
and Kirsten Smith did a very nice job
misdirecting the viewer enough to
keep the moviefreshand interesting.
The supporting cast of nerdettes are
exactly what one might expect in this
type of film, and their transformationfromthe unseen to the must be
seen also travels tried and true storylines, but it is perhaps this familiarity
which allows the view«* to connect
more easily with the protaganistas.
Interjected are just enough truly
comic bits, such as when Shelly is
helping to makeover the girls and she
instructs them with the deepest sincerity that they must use makeup to
showcase their eyes for4 the eyes are
the nipples ofthe face." Certainly not
a film that requires deep reflection,
but there is more than enough rentable fimm this fihiitomakertworth
a view. "What to See" ***
"The Mighty Boosh" is written by and starring Julian Barratt as
Howard Moon and Noel Fielding as
Vince Noir in a Britcom television
program which combines comedy,
fantasy and musicatelements.
Hmm, how do I communicate the
sounds and images that leapfromthe
screen while watching this show?
That is a tough assignment. Fielding
plays a character named Richmond
on my favorite Britcom "The IT
Crowd" and it is for that reason alone
that I took a shot at this show.
After having watched the first
season of Boosh, I am still watching
and still am not quite sure why I am
watching or more precisely what it
Tuesday, October 13, 2 009
is I am watching. The comedy
is not particularly sharp. Acting
is over the top and likely this is
intentional. The story lines are
straight from the dream states
of the writers. The sets and costumes are equally cheesy and
outlandish.
Perhaps it is like taking a journey into the sleeping mind of
Lewis Carroll or Edgar Allen
Poe only less sophisticated. It is
entertaining for sure, and at times
more than a bit disturbing.
If for no other reason, watch
it at least one time, for it is truly
like nothing you have ever seen
before. You might even enjoy the
musical segment, which can be

Layers create visual interest

grey, white) the more versatile the cardigan will be. Try
to stay with neutral or earth
tones and you will be able
to wear your cardigan with
nearly anything.
The last thing you should
consider when buying a cardigan is the material. Try
to go with a t hinner f iner
fabric like f ine merino wool
or cashmere. If the cardigan
is too thick and bulky y ou'll
not only risk looking like Mr.
Rogers, but you'll also limit
its versatility.
The online Merriam-Webster dictionary d efines a cardigan as a sweater or jacket
that opens the f ull length of
the center f ront. Essentially
a cardigan is a sweater that
opens in the f ront. The cardigan has escaped the closet of
g randfather's everywhere and
has become an important fall
staple. It also applies to this
week's fashion tip.
A cardigan is great because
it is universally u seful and
accessible to everyone. You
can wear a cardigan with anything. Pair it with a normal
graphic or band t-shirt for a
casual look or a button down
oxford and tie for a more
sophisticated look. You can't
go wrong when layering with
a cardigan, so pick one in
your favorite color and wear
it everywhere.
When purchasing a cardigan there are several things
to look for. You should purchase a cardigan that f its
well, it should f rame your
torso without overwhelming
your silhouette or being too
tight. You should also take
note of the color.

THE PRIDE
O verflow at ' Meaning in M otion' dance presentation
BY BLAINE HMOGIL
Pride Staff Writer
In Arts building room 111 on
Wednesday evening, the room
filled quickly as throngs of
impatient attendees jostled to get
a prized red ticket for a chance
to get seating in the main auditorium. Forethought and planning
resulted in a relatively orderly
beginning to the evening, as
those in charge had set up
a viewing room for
those not fortunate enough to
get into the main
room. The overflow room offered
the presentation via
closed circuit television.
Dr.
Jonathan
S. Marion, an
on campus professor
of Anthropology, presented
the event, "Meanings in
Motion." Dr. Marion's focus
is on Visual Anthropology as it
applies to Ballroom dance. He
is no mere scientific observer,
he is also an enthusiastic participant. One might wonder i f
such a deep involvement in the
field one studies might cloud scientific judgment, but in the case
of Dr. Marion, this involvement
leads to a deeper insight
and better understanding of the subject at
hand rather than
conflict.
Dr. Marion is
easy to spot on
campus with his uptempo stride, short ponytail and neatly trimmed
doorknocker
facial
hairstyle. He is very
approachable, knowledgeable, and dare I say
stylish. On this evening he
brought everything he had
t o the presentation along
with a mild nervous swaying
during the presentation.

Dagnabit Productions brings musical comedy to life at CSUSM

What do you get when you

script? You get an excellent
p erformance that is d efinitely
worth $10 dollars.
Dagnabit Productions is
a new student organization
here at Cal State who last year
started as a g uerrilla t heatre

ready t o bring many t hings to
CSUSM. They are currently
in the process of becoming a
f ully recognized student organization whose goals include
to bring formal p erformances,
build a community for students who are interested in
any aspects of theater and help
the theater program in school.
"The P ride" had a chance

Dagnabit Productions' current play, Arielle Rosenbaum,
who explained what Dagnabit

Pride Staff Writer

Pride Staff Writer
Advising appointments are
now available through an updated
online system called "The Web
Scheduler". The Web Scheduler allows CSUSM students to
schedule advising appointments
according to their declared major
or their major of interest. The
Web Scheduler suggests that students with an undeclared major
status or students with no specific major of interest visit the
Career Center, located in Craven
Hall Room 4201.
The older version of the Web
Scheduler closed after midnight
on Thursdays and reopened at 10
AM on Mondays. If no appointments were available then students had to continue logging
onto the Web Scheduler daily
to check for available appointments from Monday after 10 AM
to Thursday before midnight. If
students were not able to successfully make an advising appointment then they would have to wait
until the following Monday at 10
AM to start the whole process all
over again. For the Fall Semester
however, the Web Scheduler no
longer closes. Students can log
onto the Web Scheduler to make
an appointment whenever they
want. Students can also make an
advising appointment in advance
of 7-12 days.
Advising appointments provide opportunities for students to
meet with advisors for assistance
in graduating. Students that meet
with an advisor "leave know-

Before nine in the morning
last Friday the Facility Services
department announced that the
lights and power would more
then likely remain off for the
remainder of the day in the ACD
building. A contractor working
in the Academic Hall accidentally struck and disabled a hidden
electrical feeder for the lights on
the third and fourth floor of the
building. Fortunately, the contractor was not injured in the
accident.
Shortly after the accident, the
Facilities Services department
notified the Communications
Office who sent out a mass email
to notify students of the situation.
Yellow signs were posted on the
doors of the ACD building warning students of electrical repairs
being performed through out the
day on the first,, third, and fourth
floors, with the corresponding
classroom relocations.
The Academic Scheduling
department was notified of the
accident on Friday morning and
made adjustments to classes
in affected areas. Two classes,
Communications 360 and Kinesiology 202, which are scheduled in classrooms on the fourth
andfirstfloorsrespectively, were
relocated to Markstein Hall for
the day.
The repaif work went fairly
smoothly and was completed by
Facility Services during the day
on Friday. Fortunately this prevents the need for further class
relocations, and all classes are
scheduled to be held in their regular rooms on Monday.

suggested on campus are new parking structures, labs and lecture halls.
The public-works bonds which are being
run along with Bond ID for transportation, housing, and flood control, (titled
Bonds IB, 1C, and IE respectively) may
make the passage of each individual bond
more difficult. The proposed package is
considerably larger than previous bond
packages, the previous largest state bond
proposal being the $15 billion dollar deficit reduction bond in 2004. That bond,
which was named at the time Proposition
57, was a one time Economic Recovery
Bond to pay off the state's accumulated
General Fund deficit. Seen by voters as
necessary to avoid a state fiscal crisis,
Proposition 57 passed by an overwhelming margin of 63% to 36%. The bond
package IB-IE however does not carry
the same level of necessity in the minds
of some voters as Proposition 57 did.
This difference in perception along with
the hefty price tag may lead to the bonds'
eventual defeat. Last month a poll by the
non partisan Public Policy Institute of
California stated that 59 percent of California voters considered the $43 billion
in debt that would be accumulated by the
bond package's passing would be "too
much". To help shore up support for the
it, Governor Schwarzenegger along with
the four top legislative leaders—including Democrats state Senate President Pro
Tempore Don Perata and Speaker Fabian
Nunez—are scheduled for several news
conferences on October 3 and 4 to promote the bond package.

I
don't
view sports
as a f an/ T
don't get too
high or too
low when, my
team wins or loses, which is why
I can work in the sports industry and still maintain my sanity.
Last time I lived and died with
my team I was in little league.
At least that was the case until
September 18, when the Padres
and Dodgers played one of the
most remarkable games I have
ever seen.
On that day the Padres gave
up back to back to back to back
jacks in the ninth inning and
a game winning homer in the
tenth inning to lose to the Dodgers 11-10.
Being a Padres fan, you would
think I would hang around more
Padres fans than Dodgers fans,
but that is not the case. Some of
my closest friends roll with the
blue crew, so as this division
chase winds down between the
two teams, friendships are being
tested. The following are the
conversations I had with several
people on the evening of September 18 through the morning
of September 19.
At 9:54PM the Padres todk a
lead of 6-4 in the eighth inning so
I text messaged my friend Paul,
a dodgers fan, "Oh yaaaaa".
He simply responds with a
couple of expletives.
At 10:12PM the Dodgers
grabbed one of those runs back
and Paul replies to me, "I don't
think I can handle much more of
this game/'
10:25PM rolls around and
the Padres score their first of
three runs in the ninth inning.
Paul responds with, "Okay...
that's it...we aint getting 2 off
Trevor... 1 and a halfback."
I respond with quite possibly
the most clairvoyant prediction
of my life, "I dunno man. This
game is sketchy. 3 runs I am still
not confident with."
10:30PM comes and the
Padres finish the inning with a
9-5 lead and Paul says, "How
about now?!"
Making that transition from
journalist to fan I say, "Haha. I
am satisfied now."
He responds with a "Good!
We just had to keep giving you
runs until you were."
The clock reaches 10:34PM
and I am feeling stoked about
being a game and a half ahead.
Then Jeff Kent homers and Paul
responds sarcastically with,
"Yay...3 more,"
10:35PM comes and J.D. Drew
jacks one so Paul responds with
an "Oh s**t."
Before I know it I am being
bombarded with phone calls.
Paul callsfirstand myfirstwords
were, "Told you I was uneasy."
Those of you who live in Temecula, where Paul was viewing
the game, know that area gets
the .Dodgers telecast, where as
San Diegans get the Padres on
channel 4 San Diego. What most
don't know is that the Dodgers
telecast is on 6 second delay
compared to the Padres telecast.
10:38PM and Trevor Hoffman is finally called into the
game and the first pitch is sent
over the fence. As this happens
I am seeing it before Paul does
and I simply respond with a
few expletives of my own this
time. Frantically he is confused
for those first 6 seconds until
he sees my hopes go over the
fence. One pitch later I let out
some more expletives and Paul
responds with a, "you're kidding
me, right?"
The Padres got out of the
inning and I got a call from
my Uncle Rene, a Padres fan
who lives in Los Angeles. He is
watching the game at a sports
bar with a bunch of Dodgers
fans and among others, Eric
Davis, a former Dodger. I make
him look like a genius with the
whole 6 second delay as he wins
several bar bets on what's going
to happen next in the game. That
would be the highlight of the
night for either of us.
The game goes into the tenth
inning and the Padres grab a 109 lead, so once again I am feeling
confident. I finally settle down
and decide to join my grandfather for the bottom of the tenth
inning. As I sit down, Nomar
Garciaparra jacks a 2 run homer
over the left field fence to win
the game.
Then the phone calls start
ringing in again, but that isn't the
half of it. As Ifinallyget to sleep
that night, I figure I won't have
to relive that nightmare. That is
until I get to my second class on
September 19. My friend Karin,
a Dodgers fan, gives me a look
as I sit down, and I know exactly
what she's thinking so I simply
say, "Don't say a word."
To this day I am still being
mocked for that game. So, if
you're a Dodgers fan, just don't
say a word until the playoffs.
As you can see I am still not
over it.

2006 Men's Golf Preview: Experience,
new talent should make for exciting play
2006 Women's Golf Preview: Carryover from
last season places performance bar high
August 21, 2006. A xo^ter with plenty
of experience and a few strong he^cditfers should make the 2006-2007 season ian
exciting one for the men's gplf team.
Last year, the squad placed well in many
tournaments, including second place finishes at the Bill Cullum Invite^ Pala Mesa
Invitational, and Cal State San Marcos
Invitational. This success came despite
not having a single senior on the roster.
Now, eight golfers return: from last year's
team, each with another year of experience under their belts.
Scott' Conway and Matt Determari
should lead the team. Conway, who was
named to the All-Region Team following
last season, posted the fourth best overall score in the entire field at the Region
II National Championship?. He has also
been putting up great scores in off-season
August 21 2006. It was ai^ overwhelming end to last season — the squ&d not
only won the NAIA Region II Championship, but went on to place fourth at
Nationals; the team's highest finish in
the seven years ¡since its inception. With
the bar set high, the coming year will be
more intense than ever*
Fall and spring will prove to be a busy
time for the Lady Cougars, as the tournament schedule is more full than usual.
Five tentative tournaments are scheduled
for the fall, and the sprmgrseason is highlighted by the annual Cougar Invitational.
During this event, the top NAIA schools
travel to San Marcos to compete. Though
the competition will befierpethroughout
the fall and spring seasons,ft'willserve to
prepare the team to be in National Championship contention once again.
Within the team itself, competition
will be ratcheted up as well. The combination of four talented newcomers with
the fact that last year's team featured just
one senior means this squad will be full
of competition, experience, and excitement. With the great finish to last season,
the ladies on this team know what they
iyre capable of achieving and 'anticipate
stretching their skills and abilities to
tournament^. Deternian, a junior, has
also: posted great scores in tournaments
following the season. These tournaments
help the golfers prepare for the fall season,
and both Conway and Determan appear
poised to have great years for CSUSM.
To complement that experience, four
new golfers are in school and will compete • for spots oh tournament rosters.
Talented freshmen < Ryan Brotman, Kyle
Kelch, and Arek Legarra will be on the
-competition roster beginning this fall,
and junior Markus Wended a transfer student from Sweden, will bring excitement
to the squad.
' Betweep the talent that the team brings
back froiri last year and the incoming
players,, San Marcos has a great season to
look forward to.
Men's Soccer back on winning
track; defeating Biola 1-0
September 22 2006. Coming off i ts
first loss since its opening match, the Cal
State San Marcos men's isoccer teanf(8-2)
quickly righted the ship on Friday, defeating a previously unbeaten Biola squad (41) by a score of 1-0 in what was a tremendous soccer game.
Scormg"oppSftunities were few and far
between in the tightly contested match.
Luckily for CS&S&I, Curtis Marcikic
got the Cougars on the board early. Just
under 6 minutes into the match, Chris
Wyatt controlled a ball in Biola territory.
From a sharp angle, he struck a cross to
the opposite side of the net, finding Marcikic all alone at the far post. Though the
cross handcuffed him, Marcikic managed
to redirect the ball into the net with his hip,
giving CSUSM an unlikely 1-0 lead
That would be all the Cougars' defense
wouldneed. After Marcikic's goal, CSUSM
managed only one more shot on goal for
the duration of the match, but was able
to fend off all of Biola's attacks. Cougar
keeper Trent Painter was his usual self,
barking out instructions to his defenders,
making good decisions, and stopping both
shots on goal he faced.
In the waning minutes of the match,
Biola mounted a ferocious charge, nearly
equalizing the game multiple times with
some hard shots and free kicks that just
missed. But despite all this, CSUSM never
lost its composure, weathering the storm
until the final whistle blew.
For the Cougars, Friday's win should
be a major confidence builder. The squad
was coming off a tough loss, playing on
t he^acf and involved in one of its first
night games in cold and windy conditions,
yet still managed to best a very good Biola*
team that entered the game 4-0. Following
the game, assistant coach Bobby Renneisen
had nothing but praise for both teams;
"This was the best team we've faced all
year" says Renneisen. "It was just a great
college soccer game. It could have gone
either way."
Renneisen added that Biola has 4 or 5
players with "special" talent. All of this
makes the Cougars' performance on
Friday even more impressive, and bodes
very well for the team's outlook for the rest
of the season.
After a well-deserved week off, the
Cougar men will be in action again when
they host a very tough La Sierra squad on
Sunday, October 1st. Kickoff is at 3:00
PM, and all CSUSM supporters are welcome to head down to Mangrum Field to
cheer on your Cougars!
Another close loss for Women's Soccer
September 19 2006. Though the Cougar
women (1-6) played a tough, close game,
the team once again failed to notch a victory, losing 1-0 to the visiting Vanguard
University Lions (5-0-1) on Tuesday.
Both squads had scoring chances, and
CSUSM never allowed Vanguard to establish total control of play. Still, Vanguard
held the upper hand for most of the match,
out-shooting the Cougars 12-6 with a 9-3
advantage in shots-on-goal.
Vanguard tallied the only score of the
match in the 20th minute. The Lions'
Heather Hutton made a run through
CSUSM's defense, finding some space
deep in the Cougars' territory. She spotted teammate Rachel Housepian across
the box, sliding her a pass that neither the
Cougar keeper or defense could get to.
Housepian struck the ball into the back
of the net, giving the Lions a lead they
would never relinquish.
Most of the Cougars' opportunities
came early on, with forward Clarissa
Hidalgo leading the charge. Hidalgo
recorded all three of CSUSM's shots on
goal for the day, but opposing keeper
Marissa Swift let none past. Tessa Smith
and Kelly Wherry created chances from
the midfield, and defender Lucia Asbury
kept the Vanguard offense in check for
most of the match.
While the Lady Cougars have been
playing better as of late, they're still
searching for a way to earn a second victory in their inaugural season. They'll try
again on October 1st in a game against La
Sierra University. The match will kickoff
at 1:00 PM on Mangrum Track & Soccer
Field, so come on down to cheer on your
Cougars!
another level..
This year, the team Will feature six
active returning players. The squad will
be led by senior Jenneil French, and she
should shine in her last year as a Cougar.
French's drive and determination will
help her develop into a player capable of
competing at the professional level.
Right behind French is junior Çarly
Ludwig. Ludwig led the team at the
National Championships, finishing in the
top 20, which Coach Segura says is just a
preview of what this young lady can do.
Ludwig, along with French, should lead
the Cougars to achieving their goals for
the upcoming season.
Along with those experienced golfers,
new additions to the team include freshmen Irene Atkins (Laguna Niguel, CA),
Marissa Reino (Huntington Beach, CA),
Adriana Borman (West Covina, CA), and
Katiiryn Hansen (Moorpark, CA). They
will compete for spots on tournament
rosters, and help push their teammates to
stay on top of their games.
Though last season was a great year for
the lady cougars, it is believed that this
year's roster is even strppger, and thatthe %
team can once again put itself in National
Championship contention.

A young Brazilian man once brought
an idea to the American media: a dream
of making his family's unique style of
martial arts the number one style to beat.
Unless your last name was Gracie, nobody
at that time had ever heard of Brazilian
Jui Jitsu, which would later be known as
Gracie Jui Jitsu. This was a style .of martial arts where being on your back meant
you were in control. The Gracie family
felt they could revolutionize the martial
arts world. Thfc Gracie's put out a challenge to anyone who would listen, especially those of the Martial Arts world.
November 12, 1993, Rorion Gracie introduced the world to the Ultimate Fighting Championship (UFC) It was a venue
where the Gracie family could showcase
their own style of Martial Arts; a no
holds barred, 'vale tudo' (anything goes),
no rules style of fighting. Unlike the traditional ring boxers and wrestlers use, the
UFC uses an Octagon, an eight sided ring
linked together by a fence and poles. The
main objectives were simple, make your
opponent submit or "tap out", knock him
out or get knocked out. Two men would
enter and only one would leave and go on
to the next round. At that time, fighters^
were not well rounded. They only knew
one or maybe two styles of martial arts.
The first three shows of the UFC fights
were dominated by one Gracie. He was
Photo courtesy of ufc.com
the chosen one, the one who would represent the Gracie family; Royce Gracie.
Everyone and anyone who thought they
could fight or thought that their style of
martial arts was the best were proven
wrong that night Royce stepped into the
Octagon. For the first 4 years he was the
"UFC". Nobody was able to beat "Gracie
Jui Jitsu" let alone handle the submissions. After the phenomenon of Gracie
Jui-Jitsu took over, everyone jumped on
the Jui- Jitsu band wagon. The UFC of
today is different then in the Gracie days.
Today's fighters have mastered Jui Jitsu
and have moved on, adding Muay Thai
Kickboxing and Boxing to their arsenal.
Introducing Mixed Martial Arts, which
in laymen's terms means any style of
martial arts that one trains in. Today you
can find an increasing number of MMA
training facilities gearing up to accommodate all those eager for the challenge
of Mixed Martial Arts.

�I NLAND INVASION 2 006
Muse steals the show at
local musicfestival
BY AMANDA RUTHERFORD
Pride Staff Writer
M USE
When first arriving at Inland Invasion
2006, September 23, I had my doubts about
the concert, and whether or not Guns 'N
Roses, Alice in Chains, Muse, Papa Roach,
Avenged Sevenfold, Rise Against, Atreyu,
Buckcherry, and 30 Seconds to Mars would
deliver. Parked in the VIP parking section,
at 1 p.m. there were not very many cars or
people. The wind was knocking people and
tents over, but didn't stop the heat. Unfortunately by 3 p.m. there were already people
who were not going to see the concert
because the melting heat had already gotten
the best of them. A word of advice: to fend
off dehydration, always bring a bunch of
water to hot concerts. To my surprise, the
parking lotfilledup within the hour and even
more so as the show went on.
After enjoying the pre-concert tailgate
with other fans and blasting music in the
parking lot, we made our way to the gates
of the Hyundai Pavilion. Atreyu was the
first on stage. We were only able to catch the
closing act of their show since the lines to
get into the concert were filled with intoxicated people who just slowed the rest of us
down. Lines for food, shirts and other merch
were extremely long; but none matched up
to line of the ATM machine. At every break
between bands the machine would have over
fifty people waiting.
After Atreyu, Buckcherry took the stage.
Their lead singer, with his head full of firecolored hair, conversed with the crowd as
he sang, though at times he seemed to talk a
little too much during his songs. Since it was
still in early in the afternoon, there were no
lights for his set, just videos of him singing
along on the huge screens placed above and
to the sides of the stage.
Up next was Rise Against. They really
got the crowd involved, egging them on and
telling stories, graciously thanking California for supporting the Chicago-based band.
Their music was clear and executed well.
The band moved about the stage in a nonchaotic manner and seemed to be relaxed.
30 Seconds to Mars marched onto the
stage with red and white flags, numerous
fans, and covered faces. The show they put
on was not very complex and focused almost
completely on the lead singer, Jared Leto.
Leto talked a lot about how he was once
like us, the crowd, and would sneak up to
the front. Instead of just playing his music,
Leto encouraged people to get as close as
they could and just not get caught. During
t h e _ first song, you couldn't even
hear him sing. Then Leto
that hung from the light racks just to tell the
audience what a great view it was; they only
yelled for him to jump off He didn't.
Papa Roach stole thè stage. Jumping with
enthusiasm, literally, he got the crowd to get
out of their seats, sing along and rock óut.
They sang songs from their newly-released
album that came out last week and went
through different songs only to end with
three classic songs from their first album.
They had a great attitude and understood
how to make the crowd happy.
Avenged Sevenfold was the next band up
and had a little trouble. The singer blew out
his vocal chords while making their new
album that should be released soon, so while
he was singing at the concert it was hard to
hear him. They played the music louder than
he could sing so the difference in his damaged voice could not be heard. Even so, it
was still a good show. However, the almostnaked dancing girls around them were more
repulsive than attractive. They looked more
like they were having spasms than dancing,
and it really took away from the show.
After a long pause, Muse stole the stage
and blew away the competition. People
around me gasped, as they had never, heard
of Muse before and were in awe of their talents. Lights blazed and the band played like
no other. There was no useless talking like
other bands had done, they just played one
song into another. Their musical style is very
unique and amazing in concert. The singer
not only sings but also plays the guitar and
the piano many times in one song. The band
only has three members. They were amazing and put on a show that had people in the
crowd, including my husband who had never
heard them before, saying they will go see
this band again.
Alice In Chains and Guns 'N Roses put
on a very good show. I was amazed at how
much the new singer for Alice In Chains
sounded like the old one. As for Guns N
Roses, although it was just as good, I wish
I would have been able to see the original
band. It just wasn't the same as it would have
been to hear the GNR we all remember. But
a good rock show.

P ut down t he R ed B ull a nd go s ee Crank
BY AMANDA ANDR^EN
Pride Staff Writer
"Crank" is so extreme, so hardcore,
so painful, so gory, so profane and so
unbelievable that three days later I
still feel like I've just been slapped
across the face, punched in the stomach, run oyer by a bicyclist, dragged
through all of the dirt school parking
lots, and thrown into a pool of freezing-cold water. Sound like fun? You
bet it is! The thrilling cardiac-arrest
inducing roller coaster ride that is
"Crank" comes highly recommended
by this reviewer.
Not having been to a movie in a
few months and having heard my
father rant and rave about thisfilm,as
well as a plethora of my guy friends, I
was fairly skeptical upon entering the
miovie theater to see afilmthat critics
have pigeon-holed as a "guy flick." "Is
this really going to be worth the $7.50
for the ticket and the $4.25 for the Mr.
Pibb I just shelled out?" I thought as
I walked through the vacant theater.
Having missed the credits entirely,
my friend and I entered the stadium
just as Jason Statham (from "The
Transporter") woke up from his "Beijing Cocktail." What ensued next was
85 minutes full of mind-blowing (literally in some parts) action—we're
talking
all-bets-are-off-don't-trythis-even-if-you-do-only-have-onehour-to-live gnarly stuff—not to
mention plenty of blood and gore and
a fair share of profanity and scantily
clad women.
Chev Chelios (Statham), a professional hit man who is poisoned by a
sleazy rival gangster, Verona (Jose
Pablo Cantillo), opens up the movie
with the discovery that he's been
injected with a lethal Chinese toxin
and only has one hour left to live.
Poison blocking the adrenal receptors in his body, the only way Chelios
will hope to stay alive in the movie
is to constantly keep adrenaline pulsing through his veins. This being the
case, he resorts to insane methods of
keeping his adrenaline pumping, and
I can't imagine anyone attempting the
outrageous stunts that Chelios pulls
off in "Crank." Ever. Period.
I won't ruin the plot or any of the
pants-wetting action scenes for you
if you do choose to see it, but I will
say "Crank" delivers your money's
worth and more. Next time you find
yourself reaching for a can of Redbull or Monster, put it down and head
to your local theater to see "Crank"
It'll cause more adrenaline than you
can handle to pulse throughout your
body. "Crank" will have you up for
days.

Immigration rally
Five students help protest immigration law
VOL. XV NO. 15
BY RACHELL REYES &
CHRISTINE VAUGHAN
Pride Staff Writers
Five freshmen students coordinated a community-wide rally
on campus in protest of the antiimmigration bill HR 4437, on
Monday, May 1.
The rally, in conjunction with
the national Great American
Boycott, served to give students
the opportunity to have their
voices héard about social policies and issues regarding immigration.
"We just talked about it, and
never did anything about it,"
said Herminia Ramirez, lead
organizer, about her f rustrations with socially conscientious
courses. "Our problem was that
we needed to take action."
Ramirez, with the support
of four fellow WMST 101 students, Marisol Marquina, Kathie
Alvizo, Karen Leon, and Carmen
Contreras, organized the rally
attracting over 300 participants
and 11 guest speakers.
"I am very humbled to be a
part of this movement," said
Josh Harris, guest speaker and

those who won't be here today."
Harris expressed how many
immigrants, legal and illegal,
aren't often visible in our society. "The public doesn't see
them. Today, part of getting our
word out is making them visible.
We will not be invisible anymore."
Lori Walkington, a Women's
Studies major and volunteer at
the rally, was disappointed with
the lack of diversity in student
involvement. "We are a diverse

classrooms, and yet when we

Former Governor Gray Davis,
in December of 2001, made it a
priority to stimulate the economy by developing and f unding six statewide projects. Cal
State San Marcos was one such

Markstein Hall, the first of the
six completed projects outlined
by Davis.
The nearly 88,000 square-foot

University Police Report: Prelude to Fall 2006
BY ANTOINETTE JOHNSON
Pride Staff Writer
With the spring semester
coming to a close, the University
Police Department is at work on
new programs for Fall 2006. Each
new project is designed to better
serve the campus community as
well as increase the department's
visibility and connections with
students and faculty.
The campus will be stocking a
new property-marking product,
Data Dots, for sale this Fall. Data
Dots is a kit containing microscopic dots that can be painted
onto mp3 players, cellular phones,
laptops, books, and other valuables
for identification purposes. In the
event that these items are stolen,

and disability safety for the structure. The program was inspired by
the department's need for making
themselves more visible on
campus, not only to students but
to the faculty as well. Along with
familiarizing themselves with the
building's structure, officers will
also be in charge of connecting
with faculty and staff working in
the building.
Lastly, campus police will be
developing an acquaintance rape
program to be implemented this
fall. The program is still in the
works, but Lt. Miller describes
this new service as a strategy for
rape prevention.
"The best time to set up inter-
vention to prevent acquaintance
rape is in the fall with incoming
freshmen and sophomores during
the first two weeks of the fall
semester," said Miller.
Campus police will be making
door-to-door visits at University
Village to educate tenants on the
facts of acquaintance rape. Male
tenants will receive information
about the facts of consent whereas
female tenants will receive information about how to avoid becoming victims of rape. The program
targets mainly UVA tenants, but
information on rape prevention is
available to all students.
The University Police Department hopes to extend its services
to all incoming and existing students at the start of the academic
year to reinforce its presence on
campus.

forced on them perhaps, because
it is important for everybody to
see the kind of contributions
important, respected community leaders provide to this
institution. It is a model for
others; it signifies the belief in
not only today, but in the future
of this institution."
One of the elements each
successful campus needs is
community partnership, said
Murray Galinson, chairman
of the CSU Board of Trustees.
"It takes community leaders to
embrace the campus and help it
reach its goals."
"We appreciate what a university does for its students and
surrounding
communities,"
said Donor Ken Markstein.
"Since it's becoming impossible for the state to finance
the complete needs of its universities, it's imperative for the
community to be involved not
only in moral support, but in
financial support as well."
National and local government entities presented the
Markstein Family and the
campus with honorary recognition plaques and proclamations.
Awards were presented on
behalf of Congressman Darrell
Issa, Cruz Bustamante, Senator
Bill Morrow and the California
Legislator, State Assemblyman
Mark Wyland, the San Diego
County Supervisor's Office,
the City of Oceanside, the City
of Escondido, the City of Carlsbad, the City of San Marcos,

Arnold Schwarzenegger.

Lee for 2006/2007 offered his
first open speech at The Crash
Awards Ceremony, on Wednesday, April 26.
Lee's speech came under fire
from one of the editors at the
Pride Newspaper based on the
fact she found it unprofessional.
According to the opinion article,
the writer felt that Lee was not
as polished or as professional as
the current ASI president, Marc
DeGuzman.
"There are all kinds of leadership styles, you cannot compare
me and Marc DeGuzman," said
Lee in response to the article.
"Neither one of us is better than
the other, just different."
"Leadership is a case sensitive
and is based on the individual."
Though he did read the article prior to going to print, Lee
was informed of the opinion
piece and was given a chance to
respond.
"I could have been more polished that evening, but I chose
not. I wanted to present myself
to my peers," commented Lee
about the speech overall.
Lee wanted to convey that he
respects anyone's opinion on
his leadership style and would
be willing to discuss it with
anyone.
"There is more to school than
classes, there is campus life and
it plays a significant role," said

came out to help out at
this event there was a
lack of diversity within
t his ' sttident involvement", J
The anti-immigration
bill is more than just the
immigrants'
problem,
but a national issue that
requires attention, said
Walkington. "What I see
happening with this bill
is the intent to enforce
slavery once again, but
upon a different people."
"I would encourage students to view the
events of May 1 in a historical context," said
Scott Greenwood, assistant professor of Political
Science. "We have a long
history of integrating
immigrants, both legal
and illegal, into our soci-
Lee in response to a comment in
regards to his speech.
Lee, a current business and
marketing major at Cal State San
Marcos, could not comment on
next year's ASI board but did say
that he hopes to deliver a strong
University Hour. "Overall it will
benefit students," said Lee.
ety, and the events of May
1,2006, are simply another
stage in this long historical
process."
Dr. Jorge Riquelme,
professor of Liberal Studies, was among the speakers at the rally. Riquelme
discussed how the United
States is demonstrating conflicting messages
regarding
immigration.
One such conflict centers on the Mexican flag
debate, arguing between
images of Mexican-nationalism versus patriotism to
America.
"I do not perceive the
flags from different countries as an insult to America," said Riquelme. Flags
are not symbols of allegiance, Riquelme went on
to say, they are symbols of
our heritage and culture.
The rally served as a plat-
form, and as a reminder, to
urge students to vote in the
November primary elections. In November, voters
will have the opportunity
to elect, or reelect, members of the Congress, the
political entity responsible
for passing legislative bills,
such as HR 4437.
"When you vote, that is
when you show your true
colors," said Riquelme.
"For the next election in
November, remember who
voted yay and who voted
nay for HR4437."
"I think they did a fabulous job," said Professor
Linda Pershing. "These
young women have never
done a rally before, and
I applaud their efforts to
voice their concerns about
an issue that personally
affects them."

Moukhalis s experience as an undergrad
BY KAYONNI WILLIAMS
Pride Staff Writer
"Well, I want to congratulate each and
every one on the hard work and the excellent achievement," said Salah Moukhalis,
PhD, to the class o f2006.
With graduation around the corner,
many graduates are excited, but may be
f earful of what to expect after the completion of undergrad school. Literature &
Writing Studies professor, Dr. Moukhalis, shared his experience as a graduate
as well as words of encouragement for the
class o f2006.
Moukhalis was a first generation college student, like many who will be graduating this semester. "My father never
had a chance to go to school. Living under
French colonial rule, it was very difficult
for him or his single mom to afford the
expenses of school. At a very early age he
had to support his mother. My mother had
an elementary education, but never made
it to college. So, I am first-generation college student." Dr. Moukhalis attended and
graduated from Mohammed V University
in Rabat, Morocco, with a degree in "English Language and Literature".
Having studied in Morocco, Moukhalis's experience was different than that of
an undergraduate here.
"In terms of opportunities, college education in Morocco is subsidized by the
government and is free. In some schools
it is an open admission policy. Once students graduate from high school, their
choice of college is limited to their major.
The programs are very carefully designed
to ensure a much focused education and
at the same time to introduce students to
a global perspective. I remember in high
school, for example, I had to learn about
the literature, history, geography, and
economy of so many countries, including, for example, Germany, Brazil, Japan,
and the United States," shared Moukhalis. What is common is the challenge "It
was very challenging but I enjoyed it so
much."
There was no formal commencement
ceremony, however, he did have "the
privilege of receiving an invitation to the
King's palace," but like many students
who won't attend their commencement,
he never made it.
The class of 2006 is said to have a
good job market available to them. Many
students will have to end their college
careers (or put them on hold) to enter the
job market. Numerous others will continue on to graduate school. Advice from
others may be helpful, but follow your
own instinct. Contrary to the current job
market for graduates, when Moukhalis
was graduating, "the job market was really
tight and there were few opportunities for
graduates," so, "against the advice of all
to get a job," he opted for graduate school
to further pursue his dreams of being a
college professor. Some students will not
get accepted to their first choice graduate school, but Moukhalis did, eventually
earning a masters degree, " from Keele
University in England." He later went on
to earn a Ph.D. from Sate University of
New York at Stony Brook; "I'm glad I followed my own instinct then."
Along with hard work, Moukhalis attributes his success to his father, "My dad
actually is my role model. Even though he
never had any formal education; he had to
struggle all his life to spare us that hardship. I always heeded his advice about the
importance of getting an education."
To the graduating class of 2006, fear
not, because from Moukhalis's perspective, "I would like to remind students that
graduation is not the end; it is the beginning of hopefully a life f ull of more challenges, hard work, and most importantly
more achievements."

�Immigration: The Debate Continues
BY KARIN REYES
Pride Staff Writer
With all the talking and debating going on across the country
over immigration, some history on this issue is necessary
since many of us are too young
to remember any of this legislation being passed. Not all legislation is covered in this timeline
on U.S. immigration policy:
1882—The Chinese Exclusion Act of 1882 banned Chinese
laborers from entering for 10
years.
1891—The Immigration Act of
1891 was the first comprehensive
law for national control of immigration. Established the Bureau
of Immigration within the Treasury Department, it restricted
immigration by certain classes
of persons, and directed the
deportation of anyone entering
the U.S. illegally.
1924—The Immigration Act
of 1924 was the first permanent
limitation on immigration which
established the "national origins
quota system" which set annual
immigration quotas at 2 percent of the number of persons
of a given nationality to reside
in the U.S. This act, along with
the Immigration Act of 1917,
governed American immigration policy until 1952. It established a preference quota for
those unmarried children under
21;parents; spouse of U.S. citizens; and those immigrants aged
21 and older who were skilled
in agriculture, along with their
wives and dependent children.
1940—The Alien Registration
Act required registration of all
aliens.
1942—Executive
Order
9066—Evacuation and Internment of Japanese and JapaneseAmerican citizens from the West
Coast.
1942—The United States and
Mexico signed the Mexican Farm
Labor Program Agreement,
which set up the Bracero system
that legally brought 4.6 million
Mexican migrant workers to the
U.S. over the next 24 years.
1952—The Immigration and
Nationality Act of 1952 became
the comprehensive law governing immigration and nationalization. It gave preference to skilled
workers, those who had relatives
that were U.S. citizens and legal
aliens.
1965—-The Amendment to the
Act of 1952 abolished the national
origins quota system, visas were
given on first come, first served
basis, and gave preference to relatives of U.S. citizens and permanent resident aliens and those
with special skills.
1986—The
Immigration
Reform and Control Act autho-
rized temporary and then permanent resident status for aliens
residing in the U.S. illegally since
1982 and created sanctions for
employers who knowingly hire
aliens not authorized to work in
the U.S.
1990—The Immigration Act
of 1990 increased the total immigration amount. Refugees were
excluded from limitations.
1996—The Illegal Immigration Reform and Immigrant
Responsibility Act of 1996
increased criminal penalties for
immigration-related offenses.
The majority of the legislation
during the 1900's was intended
to restrict the immigration of
those from European countries.
For example, based on nationality, the quota system would allow
more Germans to immigrate in
comparison to Italians.
Fast forward to 2006. HR4437
is a proposed as Border Protection, Antiterrorism, and Illegal Immigration Control Act of
2005. Immigrants' rights groups
are calling for a nationwide boycott of school, work and to not
spend money in opposition to
this bill. Several students here at
Cal State San Marcos were asked
to share their thoughts on the
boycott and the bill and immigration all together. The answers
immerged as varied here as they
areacross the country.
For some students the issue is
that all Hispanics/Latinos need
to ban together and support the
immigrants.
Some students believe the
boycott is a complete waste of
time, while others fear a backlash against all Hispanics. There
are some students that believe
that these boycotts and protests
merely make the Hispanic and
Mexican communities look like
victims. "If an illegal wants citizenship, they should have to go
about it just like everyone else in
this world . .. stop making Mexicans look like they are victims;
the problem is with illegals,
not Mexicans," voiced student
Daniel Perez.
Student Maribel Baltadano
supports the boycott "It is the
way many civil rights movements began their fight against
racial discrimination."
Amy Chacon points out that
those protesting are not just Hispanic or Mexican. "People are
uniting all over the U.S to protest
. .. Not just Mexicanos but people
of all descent are supporting this
cause."
Others believe it is not about
race, but about breaking the law
and not following the proper
procedures. Student Jose Cruz
believes the issue is legitimate
but that "it's the wrong way to
send a message. If you want to
send a message, do exactly that,
send a message, talk, protest, be
vocal, write to newspapers, etc.
People will listen. People will
not listen if you throw a tantrum
and stay at home by skipping
school."
Some students also believe
that identifying this as primarily
"Hispanic or Chicano" related
may alienate other immigrants
and possible supporters of this
cause. "I think, we ALL want to
achieve the same goals with the
Boycott, but we have to somehow agree on how to relate the
message to all people in a way
that includes and invites support
and does not exclude or invites
identities," said Juana Molina.
Conversely, Student Anthony
Hutchinson was quoted asking
"Why stop with one day??? Why
not make this a 'permanent' boycott, vatos? Really make it worth
while, and just don't ever come
back."
No matter the perspective,
students are encouraged to educate themselves so that they may
speak intelligently on the topic,
and to take the necessary and
proactive steps to make their
position known.

Patrick is the fourth editorI wasn't always happy with

at "The Pride" and he has done quite an annoying month for
the best job by far. I like to think me by printing accusations of
that he learned something from sexism and homophobia from a

completely outrageous. He realhim.
Patrick regained some integrity ized he made a mistake by not
for the paper after one of the pre- discussing these accusations

That was the only issue that I had
with him and I tease him about
it whenever I get the chance. He
always backed my words, which
is exactly what an editor should
do.
During Patrick's term it
seemed as though everything he
accomplished came with a struggle. A struggle to find someone
to write a story, a struggle with
personalities that didn't want to
learn proper AP style and even a
struggle to find a new editor-inchief for next school year. Somehow he always found a way to get
things done.
Before I discuss the future, I
have a couple more good-byes to
some more graduates. Antoinette

College Life: What the U.S.
Marines did not prepare me for
BY KARIN REYES
Pride Staff Writer
thought k ^
in the park,
I was so very wrong.
At the time I started my college career
I had already been on active duty for 6
and a half years in the Marine Corps. So
I figured four years of college should be a
breeze. However I forgot one thing; how
to handle adjusting from the structured
and disciplined life of the military to a
very unstructured, undisciplined civilian
life.
Military life is not as bad as it sounds.
Aside from bootcamp (which the Marines
have the hardest—we are proud to brag
about that) life in the Corps, for some,
tends to settle into a routine that gets
comfortable after awhile. I was in that
comfortable routine when I applied for
and got accepted to the Marine Enlisted
Commissioning Education Program—
MECEP. This program allowed me to stay
on active duty, receive full pay and benefits and attend CSUSM as a full time student. Sounds too good to be true I know,
but that's where the greatness ends.
When I started classes here back in
2002 I was dealt a tremendous culture
shock. I joined the Marine Corps when
I was barely nineteen years old, so I did
my growing up in the military unlike my
fellow classmates. This is where I had
the most difficulty adjusting—interacting with other students who the majority
were younger than myself and tended to
be immature in my eyes. My biggest and
most difficult lesson to learn here was to
relax.
Easier said than done. Anytime a student whined or complained to the professor about anything, whether the syllabus
or an assignment, I would sit in my chair
and fume. Anytime a professor lost control of a class or seemed to have no clear
direction, or if students would have conversation and not pay attention, I would
sit there and force myself not to jump up
and start barking orders to everyone.
Now not every student or professor was
like this. In fact, I am positive that it was
only a select few that have stood out in
my memory. Of course take into consideration that I have a Type A personality
combined with being a control freak and
anal retentive, I'm sure those factored into
how I viewed events at the time, making
them totally exaggerated.
The Marines never taught me how to
deal with this. Sure we learned about
being respectful and tactful when dealing with each other—but it's easier when
everyone has the same expectations of
how things are supposed to be. I didn't
have to worry about hurting people's feelings because I would tell them to be quiet
during a class or meeting, but in college
that is just not happening.
Add to that having to drive to San Diego
at least two times a week for "military
training", along with being a parent and
a spouse and college has definitely taught
me a thing or two about multi-tasking.
Try getting up at 3:30 in the morning to
be in San Diego by 5:30 a.m. for military
classes and training, then driving the 45
minutes or so back to Oceanside to pick
up kids from school, then make dinner
for the family, help with homework, try
and squeeze in my homework, then drive
another 45 minutes to get to San Marcos
(yeah, 45 mins. From Oceanside, traffic nightmare) to sit in class from 5 p.m.
until 8:30, then try and be home by 9 p.m.
to see husband for 15 minutes, then end
up falling asleep on the couch. I don't
care how much training you have, that
schedule never gets easy. I can't wait to
get back to regular old military life!
All complaining and venting aside, I
wouldn't change my experience because
without it I wouldn't have met some
truly interesting and special people. I've
learned to relax—a little bit, and I've
learned that all of us can learn something from others even if we don't see it
at first.
Congratulations to those who are graduating in a few weeks, I'll see you at graduation. And for those that are not: ha ha
ha ha, you still have to go to school!
she seemed to be in the office no
matter what time I walked in. I
thank both of them for being
great contributors to this paper.
Last week I met the new editorin-chief, David Gatley. I look
forward to working with him
because he seems like a good
guy and he already has many
new things that he wants to do
with the paper. It also seems like
he is set for the challenges that
he will face. He is actually going
to have to find writers, rather
than having a class provide them
for him. Because of that, I am
assuming that the paper will be
small to start off, but will grow
in time.
As for the sports section, I
really see it changing. The new
Soccer, Softball and Baseball programs will make it so that actual
stories are written about campus
athletics. Nothing against golf,
cross country and track and field
because I do know many of the
athletes on the teams and they
are great people, but those aren't
spectator sports and there hasn't
been much to write about.
Along with the sports section, I hope to have the student
radio station up and running.
Dr. Anthony Hurst and I will be
doing some work this summer to
make that happen. I want to send
a special thanks to Laura Wilson,
Chris Hecklinger, Michelle Jules
and Matt Mull for working with
me on the project in Dr. Katherine Brown's COMM 355 class.
We created the CSUSM Radio

�The Cup of lust for each and every one of you.
Spring is here. Our common
colds and minimal rains are neither withstanding, nor less arbitrary, than the calendar marking the seasonal transition. In
this desert, this artificial oasis,
so many of us live without an
appreciation for the true cold of
winter, thus without an appreciation for Spring's return. What
all of us do have is the oldest and
most enduring icon of the selfsame cure and virus for Spring
Fever.
We, as college students, are
surrounded by fresh and freshlyarrived beautiful women.
So, women of CSUSM, let me
speak to you:
Envy, like stratification, is
natural. Luckily, so is Beauty,
and like Nature it requires only
health: nutritious food, physical exertion and a joyful Will to
be alive. Worthy partners do not
require physical perfection any
more than those who 'have it'
know it, or keep it. Worthy partners will remember the parts of
you they most favor, not the parts
you cannot change. Worthy partners do not seek conquest over
contact, that is for ill-adolescents, and they are only their parents' concern. Be alive and open
to these worthy partners, for they
are willing and eager to remind
you how beautiful you are.
I am eager to remind you how
beautiful you are.
And I don't need a class on
'romantic' poetry, or a history of
our malignant patriarchy, to do it
. .. though the blessing of my own
partner probably wouldn't hurt.
Back to the theme, then.
There are many empty but
intoxicating fortunes to be made
in making you obsessed with
your allure and ashamed of your
desires. There are many crippled
spirits driven mad with the fear
of you, determined to enslave
your (and thus all) Lust through
confusion, through dividing
debate over an archaic procedure
that, oh so curiously, has not yet
been made obsolete.
The fortune-seekers need
you more than you need them;
beauty can be supplemented, but
never sold, thus all merchants
serve Beauty, and you owe nothing to servants who forget their
place. The crippled spirits need
many things, but deserve nothing so much as the sight of you
coming to love the sight of you
as you have made yourself.
For you ARE beautiful, and
may you by your Will stay beautiful, as you would remain beautiful, even were you to die before
knowing love. No beauty is so
rare as the beauty fully realized,
but no beauties are lost but those
that are wasted, and none that
recognize themselves are ever
wasted.
Do not give Lust, holy Desire,
the blood of your beauty, to that
alluring confidence and affluence
that you already possess. Do not
hoard swords, less they make
your cup an ever-empty sieve. Do
not lord yourself above those that
would raise you from irresistible
to invaluable.
They will love you, if you give
them the chance, because you are
beautiful, and you are beautiful
because you Are.
You are your experiences, your
inspired explorations and your
delicious tastes.
You are, each and every one
of you, beautiful, not by imitating representations, but by
existing as whole, and real, and
sovereign in yourself. You have,
and must cultivate, a Name and
a Consciousness that makes
you 'an object' only so much
as a living, bleeding deity is an
object.
Were all of civilization to rot down from its art, to
its religion, to its magic, to the
end of names and back into linguistic zero, there would still be
enough left enough for them to
lose themselves and gain eternity in the unassuming sway of
your hips, the pronouncing contortions of your mouth, the softness of your warming touch.
Your symmetries and tones are
your own, and they are beautiful because the world is beautiful
and the world is beautiful because
it varies. Do not chase bleached
hair and silicone breasts as an
ideal any more than you'd chase
a single dress or set of jewelry as
the one and only ornament you'd
need for the rest of your life. The
worthy partner will reach out
their hands to touch YOU, not
your 'things'.
Lust, as any essential element to
life, can be poorly managed, but
your beauty makes it too invaluable to be forever suppressed by
winters, storms, ill-children or
crippled spirits.
Go now, and be adored. Make
the eye contact then make it
again; the smile, the first hello
and casual question. The smallest, yet clearest invitation will
turn shy awe into confident dedication. Their unbridled Lust will
bind them to you for however so
long as you would give them here,
as you would have them there.
You are beautiful, make
the same of the Spring and its
Fevers.
- Zachary Simon
CSUSM student's thoughts about 'breaking the silence'
Today April 26th at noon, six members
of the LGBTQ including myself stood and
broke the silence. Silence we had been
keeping in recognition for the voices that
are hushed each day because they were not
of the heterosexual orientation.
Voices silenced from fear. Fear of retri-
bution . . . fear for something outside of
our control. .
Being a 21 year old gay male I have
grown up to except and love myself. I
learned to love myself when our society
told me I was wrong. I learned to love god
when my church members condemned

a mistake and that no one should grow
thinking otherwise. People other than the
hetero-normative frame are people just
the same. Today we tried to get that back.

others wore white, and others simply did
not speak. Fleers were passed out up until
noon. TheseTflyers said, "Please understand my reasons for not speaking today.

have been silenced by hatred, oppression,
and prejudice. Think about the voices you
are not hearing. What can you do to end
the silence?"
For us to live in a society that does not
allow people of the same sex to marry and
share love what morality are we spreading? That certain types of love weigh more
then others?
What does it say about our society that a
person that is not heterosexual cannot live
and die for this country? Is this a country
that is so obvious that there is no separation between church and state? For people
who do not follow the mold of heterosexuality why should they have to look around
before they know it is safe to hold each
other's hand? Why should any people be
segregated into certain parts of the city
for a somewhat sense of security. So we
protested. In protest we silenced ourselves
along with "An estimated 500,000 students
at 4,000 schools nationwide" according to
dayofsilence.org, but with one difference,
at twelve we broke our silence. We broke
the silence that our society is to use too.
Names like Mathew Shepard and Brandon
Teena maybe somewhat familiar of victims
of hate crimes but there are many others
that have gone without the representation
of the media. Others that had to be recognized like Danny Overstreet, Billy Jack
Gaither, Tyra Hunter for starters. These
people were just that people and did not
deserve the deaths they received. Today
we broke the silence and for me personally I am tired of being quite I want to be
heard and not ignored. I am gay I am real,
see me, recognize me, and know that I am
more then just my sexuality.
As we prepared are mouths were taped
and as we removed the bondage of this
society we began to speak. We began to
speak of events that outside of Mathew
Sheppard many people are unaware of.
According to gsanetwork.org "The project consists of a vow of silence for the
entire school day, or however long your
school wishes to have it, where participants pass out cards that state their reasons
for not speaking (see below). At the end of
the silence, participants can host a series
of follow up events to educate their communities on how to keep the silence from
continuing."

�letters to the Editor:
I read Phil Hoffman's
"Response to the Letter to the
Editor" in last week's Pride. Phil
had commented that forcing gay
and transgender issues is actually "impeding on our rights."
Phil, this is a false statement. He
also argued that gay and transgender events are "completely
anti-America[n]." Phil, this is
also a false statement. I don't
view ASI nor LBGTA's events
(such as the fashion show,
gay wedding, etc.) as impeding on our rights. You may not
agree with their views, Phil,
but asking them to stop such
events is impeding on students'
rights, and that would be truly
anti-American. As a student I
will also do my duty by asking
ASI, LBGTA and other student
organizations to continue such
events. We need one another to
open our minds. Isn't that what
our university should ultimately
promote?
-Vicky Segall
LTWR
In last week's edition of the
Pride, Karen Perez asked the
question, "Did you know that
this bill (House Resolution 4437)
makes illegal people criminals?"
I would like to respond to her
question by saying, Karen, aren't
immigration laws, laws that if
violated make a person criminal?
These protests planned for May
1st are not about immigrant's
rights as Ms. Perez's letter suggests, it is about fighting for 11
million criminals to be granted
amnesty from punishment for
breaking the law, as well as for
promoting the idea of continuing to turn a blind eye to the
crimes that occur everyday when
someone enters this country illegally. However in the end, I feel
that the United States as a whole
should walk hand in hand with
those that are wishing to immigrate into the United States and
say, "Si Se Puede legalmante."
I do not speak for all of those
in the Lesbian, Gay, Bisexual,
Transgender community. I am
one gay person with my own
story. Other gay, lesbian, bisexual and transgender individualsLimvjsuiic^^
there are similarities among the
stories, they are different.
I have been criticized for being
discriminatory toward Christians and Catholics by a fellow
student in the campus paper. I
have not denounced Catholicism,
I am still Catholic. Nowhere
in my fetter to the editor did I
single out ALL Christians or
Catholics. I do not discriminate
against Christians or have any
ill will towards them. I simply
described my own personal
experiences as they happened to
me. •
Some might ask, ' Then why
focus so much of your conversation on Christians?"
As I described in my first
letter, my experience within the
Christian community is where I
was met with the most discrimination. I do not hate Christians
for this, nor do I believe all
Christians act the same way.
Rather, my response is to educate people that Christianity
does not mean anti-gay. Christianmeans,"Christ-like" Christ
would not spew hate or discrimi-
Phil:
I read your letter in response
to Cheyenne, regarding the
importance of a gay wedding
on campus. Yes, same-sex marriage is illegal in this country.
Do you know what else used to
be illegal, up until 1961? Interracial marriage! Check this out:
In the case ofLoving vs. Virginia
(1961), a black man and his white
wife were prosecuted for their
marriage, the judge defending
the verdict by saying, "Almighty
God created the races of White,
Black, Yellow; Malay, and Red,
and He placed them on separate continents „.And but for the
interference with His arrange-
ment there would be no cause for
such marriages. Thefact that He
separated the races shows that
he did not intendfor the races to
mix" Tell me Phil, do you agree
with this statement? If interracial marriage were illegal today,
would you oppose an "interracial wedding event"? The law is
not always right, so sometimes
you must stand up for what you
believe is r ight This is what the
LGBTA is doing. You don't have
to agree with them.
I also disagree with your statement saying that ASI and the
LBGTA are "forcing these issues
down our throats." I don't feel
forced at all. Hey, ifyou don't want
to attend a fashion show or a gay
wedding, DON'T! The LGBTA
hasn't hurt anybody, or violated
anybody's rights, as you say.
How dare you try to impede on
the right of these people to defend
themselves as human beings who
deserve human rights?
As for Anti-America, how do
you define "American"? A white
mommy and daddy, with 2.5
kids, living in the suburbs driving a Ford Explorer? Please. If
you have some important issues
to promote, I encourage you to
do so, but please don't get in
anybody else's way.
Sincerely,
Jennifer Ho
An Unruly Faction
The campus is abuzz with talk
of the 1 May boycott, and the
desired affect upon and against
the US economy. I am not only
disconcerted by the open discussion of the premeditated sabotage, I am thoroughly convinced
that such behavior does not constitute the cut or character of one
worthy to reside within the borders of this fine nation. Those
who would undermine our systems of governmental and economic policy have no place
or business amongst our elite
countrymen. Such people do
not deserve to partake with me,
a citizen of this country. Such
treacherous individuals should
not be afforded the liberties for
which so many men have died
to protect. Let those that boycott receive the full recompense
for their malefaction and disrespectful sedition perpetrating
upon the country to which they
would, not for the betterment
of their state, but for opportunities which they would exploit. It
would be better, were they to not
only abide for the duration of the
day in their homes, but that selfrepatriate (those that are illegal),
saving the national treasury
the cost. I am whole-heartedly
behind any repercussive actions
taken against those who participate, including their loss of
employment, failing of classes,
or any disciplinary action that
against them may be taken.

I wanted to write and convey
one student's perspective on the
illegal immigration issue as to
hopefully prompt further political discourse.
During the past couple of
weeks it has been remarkable
to see my peers rallying around
a political cause. The right to
peaceably assemble is one of
those rights guaranteed under
the United States Constitution (to
American citizens) that is rarely
exercised by college students, so
to hear about the event planned
for May 1st regarding a political cause is extremely encouraging. However I am torn because
while it is nice to see my peers
standing up for a political cause,
it is disheartening that it has to
be regarding the issue of illegal
immigration, because I am completely dumfounded as to how
anyone could make an intelligent
argument as to how violating the
laws of this country is a noble
cause that should be rewarded. I
understand a lot of you are sitting
there saying, well Bryan, because
illegal immigrants do the jobs
no one else will do, and to that
I disagree because illegal immigrants that accept below minimum wage positions (that may be
undesirable) are not taking a job
that someone else would not do,
they are merely undercutting the
federal and state minimum wage
laws and accepting positions for
less pay than is mandated by law
to American citizens.

�Is Roy lee the voice of the students at Cal State San Marcos?
Incoming ASI president, Roy
Lee, delivered his first "formal"
speech at the Crash Awards
Night, commemorating and recognizing student leadership and
involvement on campus, at the
honorary ceremony on Wednesday, April 26.
It is understood that when introducing a new Board of Directors for ASI, certain liberties are
taken by the student population
to scrutinize elected officials.
One such liberty involves judging the competency of its representatives and, if need be, expose
inadequacies.
Having said that, it is my desire
that you be sufficiently informed
as to how our new "president" is
representing the student voice of
Cal State San Marcos.
It is my opinion that, after
reading the following speech, I
doubt students will take much,
if any, comfort in knowing that
Roy Lee will be our representative. As president, Lee will be
expected to deliver countless
speeches to high-end executives,
politicians, and community leaders. If Wednesday night's speech
is any indicator as to his pptential as ASI President, I fear that
the student body, not to mention
Cal State San Marcos as a whole,
will be viewed as a mockery to
academia.
The following is Roy Lee's
speech in its entirety - verbatim.
It has not been taken out of con-
text in any way, nor has it been
edited for grammatical errors.
Let yourself be the judge:
"First o f f , I would like to thank
all of you who votedfor me, and
for those that have not, um, no

came here guys to Cal State San

a different mindset. Um, you see
when I graduated high school I
told myself 'all right buddy just
chill. You know, you don't know,
just don't get involved, k. Don't
get involved, don't don't get
yourself too crazy out there, you
know. Forget clubs, forget sports,
forget studying.' I mean, honestly, though, but. I told myself,
you know, 4just take it easy, don't
get involved, you don't know how
hard college will be compared to
high school.' I'm sure some of you
can relate that, right, ok. So, four
years pass by, five, whatever, and
now I'm your guys ASI President.
Good job... that's awesome, but
I don't regret it you guys, don't
regret it at all. Um, being in ASI

that a classroom could never

I want to commend you all for
making my experience at Cal
State Marcos a memorable one.
And I hope, that ASI will make it
just as memorable for you guys
as, you guys have done it for us.
Thanks."
While I have no personal vendetta towards Lee, I perceive his
speech as a prime example of
student apathy. Although uncontested in the elections, 388 students, out of 578, voted for Lee
to represent them as the voice of
Cal State San Marcos. Had more
students engaged in running for
the presidency, I believe a more
competent-sounding candidate
would be serving our campus.
ASI would be wise to splurge a
little of their $1.4 million dollar
budget on protecting the integrity
and image of the student voice.
I urge students to demand
higher standards of such representatives and, perhaps, advise
Lee to consider hiring a speech
consultant.

What is female beauty?
BY ANDREW RUISENOR &
ANTOINETTE JOHNSON
Pride Staff Writers
What is female beauty? By
society's standards, beauty might
be considered as a white skinned,
blonde-haired, blue eyed, smallwaisted (and by small this means
a size 2) and somewhat petty
bombshell. In reality, the woman
we just described is a waif. She's
frail, she's dependent, her body
is unrealistic and unhealthy. In
terms of her personality, she's as
exciting as a dial-tone.
With this standard set, where
do the rest of us fall? Are we
not to be considered beautiful?
What about mahogany-skinned,
dark-haired, brown-eyed, amplefigured, intellectual bombshells
from the rural south, the inner
city, the upper echelons, and the
underclass? These women do
exist, and many of them are reading this now. All women everywhere should realize how truly
beautiful they are.
The flesh of a person is sacred
and individualized through past
generations.
According to the Dove Self
Esteem Study "92 % of young
women (ages 15-17) experience
negative body image and want
to change." This obsession with
the flesh comes with a heavy toll.
The difference between healthy
and idealized is large. According
to inch-aweigh.com the average
American woman is 5'4" and 140
lbs. In tills same study the average
American model is five 5'11 and
117 lbs. There is a large discrepancy between the average, and
what the industry calls for. For
all the women who do not fit into
this category such as comedian
Mo'Nique Imes, embracing your
flesh is imperative. As Oil of Olay
advertises "Love the skin you're
in," it is beautiful.
Intellectualism is also an asset
that society tends to do away
with in its regard for females.
The thoughts of women should
no longer be threatening, but
accepted as beautiful. Women
like Maya Angelou represent a
beauty that transcends the flesh
and its fleeting youth. Through
her writing she breathes life into
the minds and spirits of women
around the world. The artist
Alecia Moore, otherwise known
as Pink, also presents positive messages through her lyrical works that are sending messages to women. These messages
reinforce the idea that you do
not have be another body, but a
mind as well, capable of making
decisions for yourself. Through
the mind is also you, the reader,
who might identify as a woman
who has made the step forward in
your education process challenging your system of beliefs and
getting the grade on your own
accord. Your mind is beautiful.
Identity is beautiful. Many
women, who fall outside of the
narrow formula for beauty, are
overcome with images of women
who appear tcrbc like themselves
living and reinforcing counterproductive models for what racial
group x's women should be like. ative. This in turn creates a battle
An unfortunate side effect of this between a woman's self and her
is that women begin to translate identity as it is assigned to her by

A fter the wide-eyed revelers made their way home (most
under the general consensus that
they'd been given more blood
through the performance than
ever could be leached from an
autograph mob) and before I had
their new album in my hand, I
could tell you with absolute certainty that The Dresden Dolls
will blow your mind, kick your
ass, and break your heart with
hardly more than an electric
piano and a drum kit between
them.
The new album builds on
everything that was great about
the first, with that musical and
vocal passion carried by genuine lyrical wit through every
chide and confession. Moving
seamlessly from the unpredictable avant-garde to classic nursery rhyme and power-ballad
standards, they stir every aloof
and abandoned preconception.
On the song, "Mrs. O," whose
lyrics give us the new album's
title "Yes, Virginia," we get a
journey through the nature and
implications of truth aMHbelief
... or another clever bit of word
play. It's my personal favorite thus far, and the Dresden
Dolls have renewed my faith
in this new century's capacity.
Naturally, this sets both fellow
listeners and the band itself up
for disappointment, which is all
the more reason to give them a
chance, or even a second one (it
took a third for me) to show the
world how worthwhile a genuinely unusual thing can be, and
how much we both deserve a
f uture that doesn't leave us running in place, or improving a
memory.

2. Add heaping spoonfuls of music.
The decade was also a time for many contributions, turning points,
and unfortunate losses in the area of music. Icons such as Pearl
Jam, Metallica, Stone Temple Pilots, Green Day, and Nirvana
offered up something new for rock consumers to bang their heads
to. Meanwhile, rap superstar acts like Tupac Shakur, Naughty By
Nature, Salt N ' Pepa, Dr. Dre, Snoop Dogg, and Warren G were
theflamesof rap's persistent wildfire. Music moved in waves over
the course of the decade. It started with a grunge feel of Sound
Garden and somewhere along the way stopped off at an alternative
sound reflected through bands like Garbage and Hole. Music
3. Overdose on popular television shows
Television of the 1990s catered to audiences of all
ages in new ways than previously done. Aside from
the primetime television mixture of Seinfeld, The XFiles, Xena, Buffy the Vampire Slayer, Friends,
and Ally McBeal, the airwaves also housed
programming of the more cynical nature
to satisfy the tastes of a more adult
crowd—in cartoon forms. Shows
such as the Simpsons, The Critic,
and South Park embraced the
political contexts and satirical j
nature that adult audiences
everywhere were starving w
for. As a fortunate byproduct to cartoons laced
with adult humor was
the ever-popular trend of
Anime. It was during the

Power Rangers.
4. Shake well and garnish with memorable events
and trends
Encompassed within the decade of the 90s are a host of milestones
that continue to influence the culture of today. Headlines explained
of Bradley NowelPs heroin overdose, Left-Eye's arsenal, the death
of Princess Diana, the Oklahoma City Bombing, and the tragic
shootings at Columbine High School. Teenagers sported artistry on
the smalls of their backs, chests, and biceps as well as an array of
body piercings hung from various orifices and lobes as symbols of
rebellion. Michael Jackson rose in popularity only to fall victim to
charges on his integrity. Meanwhile, his sister Janet came out of the
era looking younger somehow. The decade was a constant reminder
that yes, the 80s were over and the end of the world was near.

The annual student research competition will be
held on March 3 in University Hall, highlighting the
academic research of Cal State San Marcos's students.
The competition is from 9:30 a.m. to 12:30 p.m., pending the amount of entries per room.
According to Linda Collins, administrative support coordinator for the office of graduate studies and
research, due to the amount of entries, the competition
has been split into three categories and the competi-

Through the assistance of the union,
adjunct professors were able to negotiate
these sixteen spots for themselves. Adjunct

permits at full price; however, through this
new policy, these professors are able to take
advantage of parking privileges at no extra
At the beginning of the Spring
2006 semester, Markstein Hall,
the new four-story building
housing the College of Business Administration, practically
'appeared out of thin air,' according to many students. What was
once a tangled mass of steel girders and plastic cover sheets last
year has been replaced by a bustling collection of professor's and
department's offices with stylish,
modern classrooms. It's sudden,
and to some, unexpected appearance was followed by a flurry of
gossip and nay-saying rumors by
staff and students, some of whom
had still heard little or no official
news about the new building.
During the fall 2005 semester, many students remained
unaware, or at least unmoved, by
the large and active construction

adjunct professors, reducing parking availability for students behind Markstein Hall.
The general parking spaces became noticeably smaller on Friday, Feb. 17, reserving 16
new spaces for faculty and staff. The posted

Interest groups on campus,
especially minority groups, need
student support, due to speculations that Cal State San Marcos
' could be at risk of acquiring the
reputation for being a narrowminded campus that engages in
hate crimes and discrimination.
The Lesbian Gay Bisexual
Transgender and Allies , Student
Organization keeps a low profile to avoid risks of being further alienated from campus life.
The LGBTA has been active on
campus for about three years and
has about approximately five to
ten active members. Even for a
smaller campus,fiveactive members is noticeably low. One explanation for this lack of participation, according to the LGBTA
members, is due to many students, who identify or associate
with the LGBTA, feeling reluctant to 'come out' to other students.
"Our campus is not a safe
space to be out," said Anne Els-

President Albert Gengaling takes Miller.
There have been three incidents involving minority groups
in the last two years, all recorded
as 'minor'.'The most recent was
written in ink in a men's restroom.
It is still unclear what the vandal
meant by the words, "sauce bag".
Another incident was afightin the
parking lot of a Women's Studies dance that took place almost
a year ago. The LGBTA's banner
was also stolen. Other than these
reported incidents, the University Police Department does not
have an extensive record of hate
crimes committed on campus.
While the LGBTA students
may feel uncomfortable on
campus, there haven't been any
official threats.
"I don't have any reason to
believe that LGBTA students are
at a higher risk of mistreatment,
however, if anyone has something to report, we'd gladly take
it," said Miller.
Perhaps awareness is as much
a factor as reluctance, suggests CSUSM student, Heather

The free lectures that the club
sponsors are designed to show
students their career options,
and to help direct them through

are typically either fundraisers
or activities designed to contribute to a community.
Some of the events include

Lot E in order to make it to the
back lot, Lot H.
The Parking and Transportation Service Office, which is
located in the middle of both Lot
E and H, have seen pedestrians
nearly hit and have witnessed
intense disputes over parking.
With an increased number of
spots taken away from the students, many anticipate that even
more competition over what
little parking is now available to
students.
"They're slowly kicking us all

San Marcos student, Brittany

her disapproval stating, "The faculty have a whole other lot, Lot E,

Red Line Towing has been contracted to provide Cal State San
Marcos motorists with a stranded
driver service,* for the campus's
various parking lots.
For aflatdiscounted fee of $25
dollars, students can receive help
with vehicle unlocks, dead batteries, and spare tire mountings.
By contacting University Police,
through either any campus phone,
or using the blue emergency
phones which are always a direct
line to campus police, located in
every parking lot, students can be
connected with Red Line Towing.
Red Line will respond promptly
to the parking lot within approximately 20 minutes.
Students will have to decide for
themselves the value of this service, due to the large fee of $25
for simpler services like unlocking a vehicle. Nonetheless, if a
student is running late and lacks
both the capacity and desire to
change your spare or jump a battery, $25 is a small price to pay.
"I don't think I would ever personally use the service, while
my girlfriend will no doubt be
calling regularly," said student
Anthony Calloway. He continued
to say that "If she (Calloway's
girlfriend) spent $25 getting Red
Line to unlock her doors, instead
of calling me for her spares, I
think ! would be a little upset at
her wasting the money."
"Red Line Towing has not been
placed on any type of retainer fee
paid by the university; this is just
the best deal we found for students, after we shopped around
for services in the area," mentioned Lieutenant Doug Miller
of the University Police Department.
Students should keep in mind
that the person receiving the services will befinanciallyresponsible for all work done, at the
time services are rendered.
So far, there has been a negative response from students
concerning the sixteen spots
now designated for the faculty
and staff.
Despite
the
negative
remarks, Holmes remains
hopeful for the future. By Fall
2006, there will be a new lot
added next to Lot H and it
will be general parking for
students. Eventually, Campus
View Drive, the street leading
to Lot E, will continue south,
wrapping behind the faculty
parking lot.
"The new lot will be called
Lot F, and it will include
about 1500 new spaces,"
said Holmes. She also added
that students will have to go
through that new lot in order
to gain access to Lot H. Drivers will not be able to access
Lot H through Lot E.
Hopefully, this new change
will not be a huge inconvenience for students, especially
those who are night students,
added Holmes. Thankfully, in
the near future students can
look forward to a new student
lot that will alleviate the troubles of having to share the few
available spaces.

Schroeder. In the past, dances have been
hosted at the Escondido Center for Performing Arts as well as Pechanga Casino,
but when planning for this years' event,
Schroeder anticipated that it would be fun
to party in a 'club-like' venue rather than a
formal one. "Hard Rock Café was fun, but
the maximum capacity is 50," said Schroeder. "Canes has the same kind of environment and vibe as Hard Rock Café, yet
Canes holds up to 800 people."
The Spring Fling is free to CSUSM students with a valid student ID, courtesy of
ASI funding. Guests are welcome to attend
for a nominal fee of $5. All attendees must
obtain tickets in advance to attend, since
tickets will not be sold or available at the
door. "Students are advised to get their
tickets ASAP," suggested Schroeder. The
last day to get tickets is Thursday, March
9, at 4:00 p.m.

other sciences will be held in UNIV 257,
psychology in UNIV 237, and all other
presentations in UNIV 373.
Judges are chosen based on their areas
of expertise, aligning judges appropriately
with the subject matter in the projects, said
Collins. Immediately after the competition, the judges will compile scores and
select finalists, which will be announced
on March 6.
CSUSMfinalistsare determined by the
same criteria used for the state competition. The written and oral aspects of the
research projects are evaluated via the following criteria: clarity Of purpose, appropriateness of methodology, interpretation
of results, value of the research or creative
activity, ability of the presenter to articulate the research or creative activity to a
card upon entering," added Schroeder. As
for the dress code, "there is no strict dress
code for this event," said Schroeder; however, Schroeder suggests dressing in clublike attire or appropriately for such a special event.
Although Canes is a bar, the event is not
only for the 21 and up crowd. All students
are welcome to attend, regardless of age.
Alcoholic beverages will be available for
students 21 and over, at the cash bar, at the
student's expense. Non-alcoholic beverages and food are free. Food will include:
pizza, quesadillas with sour cream, mini
taquitos, caliente wings, chicken fingers,
chips and salsa, with fresh vegetable and
cheese and cracker trays.

general audience, said Collins.
Finalists of the campus competition will
receive a certificate of recognition, a $50
cash award, and a paid trip to the state competition at CSU Channel Islands. The state
competition will be held on May 5 and 6.
Students will not receive academic credit
for participating in the competition; however, statefinalistsdo receive a cash award.
"The purpose of the competition is to
recognize outstanding student accomplishments in scholarly research and creative activity," said Collins. "Participating
in the competition is prestigious. It is an

and gives them a very significant experience to list on their resume. Some of our
participants are using this in their applications for doctoral programs throughout the
country."
Matthew Spears, a Cai State San Marcos
senior and literature and writing studies major, won second place in last year's
state competition in the "Humanities and
Letters" section, the undergraduate division, for his research project titled: "The
Canonicity of Cliché: Idiomatic Language
and Formulaic Diction in Beowulf and the
Heaney Translation", with Lance Newman
as his faculty mentor. Spears received a
$200 cash award and a certificate.
"I had a great time, of course!" mentioned Spears. "The application wasn't all
that difficult, since I had already had an
idea of what research I was going to submit
-the idea for my paper wasfromwork I had
done before in a class. The competition here
on campus was relaxed and low-key, and to
tell you the truth, I really didn't feel all that
nervous. I was one of thefinalistsselected
to go to the statewide competition and that
was an enjoyable experience as well. There
is a little question & answer session at the
end of every presentation (as there is in the
competition here), but it's really easier than
you think because you quickly discover
that you know more about the topic of your
research than they do," said Spears.
This year, there are 28 students participating in the campus-wide competition,
a significant increase from last year's 13
participants. According to Collins, there
were over 190 students representing the 22
CSU campuses in attendance at last year's
state competition. The students competed
in 22 different divisions.
"We are thrilled with the response to
this year's competition. Not only did we
double the number of entrants, but we
received submissions from areas that were
not represented last year," said Collins.
"We really would like to* have people see
this as a venue for showcasing research
from allfieldsof study."
Finalists from last year's competition
will be hosting this year's campus competition, and will be available in each room
to answer questions and solicit advice.
"First, don't be afraid to apply - all you
have to do is submit a 5 page paper, and
then give a 10 minute presentation, which
I might add, is in front of a friendly audience that wants you to succeed," explained
Spears. "Second, once you're actually in
the competition, make sure to have some
fun with it. See it as an opportunity to
have some fun, show off some of the great
research you've conducted in your classes
while a student at CSUSM, and as a way to
practice your public speaking, which will
be important when you have a job."
The campus competition is open to the
public, and free of charge. For more information regarding the competition, contact
Linda Collins at lcollins@csusm.edu, 760750-4028, or stop by the Office of Graduate Studies and Research in Craven Hall,

site nestled at the highest of CSUSM's hills.
It can now be located behind and between the
University and Academic Hall buildings, yet
is only fully visible from near the FCB building, and the Palm Court. Perhaps its obscured
location added to student interest in the project as rumors circulated. During its construction, gossip spread that it would take several
more years than the official estimate to finish,
and once it had been 'completed,' new rumors
surfaced that the project was rushed and that
the building did not yet meet the necessary
building codes. These allegations came as a
surprise to David Dennis, project manager
with the University's Office of Planning,
Design and Construction.
Construction on Markstein Hall actually
began in May of 2004 and was finished early
January 2006, just a few weeks before classes
began. While the project was finished three
months earlier than the originally projected
date of completion in May 2006, Dennis
claims that it was built "in about average
time" for a project of its size and complexity.
"It's 99.9% complete" he said, "we just need
to finish the punch list," referring to the list
of minor and non-crucial repairs and replacements for the building, such as paint touch
ups and landscaping.
Rumors of professors forced prematurely
into partially built offices seemed a far cry
from the experience of Michael Pass, professor of Marketing, who teaches two classes and
enjoys his new office in Markstein Hall. "It's
wonderful," Professor Pass said in reference
to the building. "It's far more professional
looking." He also can't recall any negative
experiences moving in, or any sense that the
building wasn't complete. And with regards
to his new office: "it's great, better than the
other buildings on campus."
This sentiment was echoed by Political

Markstein Hall, a modern and professional design.
Science professor Anthony O'Halloran, who
also has an office in the new building. "I can't
recall anything not being completed ... and
this office is much better than any I would
have had back in Ireland," he remarked.
Many students have also been enjoying the
new building, and most agreed that the new
class room's "Harvard Case" design-with
large hardwood desks in a tiered, semicirclelike amphitheater with the professor in the
middle-created a more "professional environment".
Of course, not everyone admired the décor.
One student, who did not wish to be named,
commented on the industrial-style corrugated metal facades, saying "it looks like the
inside of a Chipotle [restaurant]". Another
student wryly remarked that the hallways on
the second and third floors were quite narrow,
but that the fourthfloor'shallways (where the
Photo by Z achary J. Simon / The Pride
dean's office is located) were much more spacious. Overall, though, the allegations of an
inadequate or incomplete facility have been
silenced since its opening, and in their place
there seems to be a general sense of satisfaction and pride in the new facility. "My wife
is coming to help me hang pictures tonight...
I'm going to use it as an excuse to show off
the classes," Professor Pass said.
With students and professors both pleased
with the facility, one can only hope that this
model will be followed for future campus projects. Current construction projects such as the
remodeling of Craven Hall, whose interior was
widely considered confusing and inefficient by
staff and students alike, would be extremely
well received. Quite likely, however, before
anyone gets a chance to see how that project
turns out, there will be plenty of time for the
staff and students to speculate on it.
Benjamin Franklin coined
the phrase "lord of another
man's purse" to refer to the title
of those with steady paying
habits. UCSD professor, David
Vickers, refuted this argument
in his Feb. 16 presentation on
the history of US debt.
The problem of personal
borrowing in the creation of
personal debt was the focal
point of Dr. Vickers' lecture.
He explained to his audience,
mixed of CSUSM students and
faculty, the many layers to this
issue, as well as a comparison
of credit in colonial days versus
the present.
Vickers, originally from
Canada, described the most
common reasons that people
borrow in today's society, such
as emergencies, investments,
better living, and of course,
school. People today also have
the ability to borrow based on
their demonstration of great
payment history (credit score)
and steady income flow. One
major aspect of borrowing that
has changed in more recent
transactions is the rise of internet use and therefore decline in

Unite to Win!
Rally for affordable quality education and fair contractsl
In 2003 and 2004, California cut half a billion dollars in state funding for
the CSU. To help get through tough times, faculty and staff took a pay
freeze. Students saw fees skyrocket along with class sizes. Sections were
cancelled. Advising appointments took months to get.
The economy finally started to recover this year, but instead of putting
new resources in the classrooms, the Trustees spent $1.2 million on huge
raises for top administrators. They could have used that money to offer
262 more sections that would enroll 10,000 students. After ail, the housing
allowance for presidents is more than the yearly pay of many professors!
To top it all off, after raising student fees every year since 2002, the
Trustees want to raise them again-10% per yearforthe next four years.
The CSU is getting so expensive that enrollments are starting to decline!
Meanwhile, faculty and staff unions are negotiating new contracts, and the
CSU administration is pushing hard for cutbacks in compensation and Job
security. They want to get rid of reliable cost-of-living raises for faculty
who are already underpaid. They want to dump three-year contracts for
lecturers, making them scramble for work every semester. And they want
to gut the FERP program that lets retired faculty keep teaching the
courses students need.
We can't let the CSU administration destroy our school and our jobs!
And the only way to stop them is if students, staff, and faculty unite to say,
"No more cutsi Rebuild the CSU!"

Faith & Fun: A history of Mardis Gras
French holiday intended to use excess as preparation for fasting
BY LORA PAINTER
Pride Staff Writer
Mardi Gras is perhaps the most famously
fabulous andfree-of-chargedesignated party
day in the world, perhaps second only to New
Year's Eve. The celebration has come to epitomize wild images of insouciant dancing,
drinking and exotic exhibition. Other less
risque aspects include beads, masks, Cajun
food and plastic-baby King Cakes. One may
therefore be surprised to learn some of its
stricter religious origins.
According to World Book Encyclopedia
online, Mardi Gras celebrations date back to
ancient Roman customs ofmerrymaking and
feasting before a period of religious fasting.
Held on the day before the Catholic holiday
of "Lent," Mardi Gras' actual date depends
on the date of Easter, thus why the celebration occurs predominantly where Catholicism has enjoyed influence. This year, Mardi
Gras will take place on February 28, as the
date is always set 46 days before Easter.
Mardi Gras, which means Tat Tuesday' in
French, may have received its name from the
French custom of parading a fat ox through
towns and villages on Shrove Tuesday. In
Germany, the holiday is called "Fastnacht,"
while the English call it "Pancake Day".
The tradition ofMardi Gras wasfirstintroduced to America by French colonists in the
early 1700's. It became very popular in New
Orleans, later branching out to other southern states. In Alabama, Florida, and several
counties in Louisiana, Mardi Gras is a 'legal'
(often incarnated as 'bank') holiday.
To this day the most famous Mardi Gras
celebration has been held in New Orleans
and it attracts tourists from around the
world. Social organizations, called 'krewes,'
manage andfinancethe parades and other
festivities. Mardi Gras is actually one day,
but is preceded by a weeks-long carnival
season whose theme changes each year.
During this 'Carnival Season,' balls, parties,
parades, and feasting are especially popular.
Mardi Gras then signifies the climax and
culmination of this season. On Ash Wednesday, religious party-goers will sober up and
begin preparation for Lent and Easter.
Even with its modern popularity, Mardi
Gras has managed to maintain its symbolic
roots. Two of the most popular traditions
associated with Mardi Gras are King Cakes
and die tossing of trinkets. King Cakes are
ring-shaped pastries usuallyfilledwith cinnamon andfrostedwith icing and tri-colored
sprinkles. Purple, yellow and green sprinkles
were meant to represent justice and faith. A
miniature plastic-baby is inserted into one of

the cakes and whoever happens to get that
piece with the baby inside will be elected
to host the next party or will often become
King/Queen of the celebration.
Another popular tradition during Mardi
Gras is the tossing and receiving of trinkets.
Masked krewe members ride on the parade
floats and toss various types of trinkets to
the crowds. Such items can rangefromplastic-beaded necklaces and faux doubloons
to plastic cups and hats. Just shout. "Throw
me some beads, mister" and you too can go
home with bags full of these coveted Mardi
Gras souvenirs.
Contrary to popular lore, getting coveted
Mardi Gras beads does not require revealing certain body parts. "There is so much
thrown that there is no way you are not going
to go home with a bag full of goodies," said
Arthur Hardy, an author and television personality, during an interview with National
Geographic magazine. According to Hardy,
the notorious practice of "flashing" for beads
has nothing to do with the real spirit ofMardi
Gras, and will only be found among young
people who feel they have license to behave
in such a manner.

attaching personality to credit, which Vickers
implies as the trouble with borrowing and lending today.
The presentation consisted of no real visual
aids other than Benjamin Franklin's coined term
scribbled onto the white board of University Hall
100. Vickers led off his discussion with a comparison of the historical contexts and concepts
of debt that are prevalent in today's society. In
colonial times, farmers utilized a credit system
not entirely unlike the practices of our country
in present day. A man could borrow services
or equipment from any of his neighbors and in
return he would repay this loan through services
as well as with food or the lending of tools. In a
system like this, each man worked in accordance
with a face-to-face agreement made between
borrower and lender. Such agreements were
hard to renegotiate, credit transactions carried
little interest, and loans had less of an urgency
for payback, thus loans had a much longer life
span. "The only indication to a farmer's neighbors that he could be trusted was his word; words
carried much more weight in a primarily barter
economy," explained Vickers.
Today, the practice of borrowing and lending
is a bit more complicated. Debts are negotiated
between a computer screen and a human, making
them much less personal. Terms of a loan can be
renegotiated at almost any time with little to no
sense of connection or attachment between lender
or borrower. This in turn adds a sense of unpredictability to the process of lending and borrowing, givingriseto consumer burial beneath bills,
bills, and more bills.
When Vickers concluded his presentation he
opened thefloorto questions from the audience
where he discussed issues such as the necessity
versus the option of establishing credit. Vickers
appeared entirely receptive to the constructive
feedback and positive audience reactions, closing with a statement that he would rethink and
further develop some of the claims in his study.
�Jock Talk With Josh
BY JOSH SANDOVAL
Pride Staff Writer
The
past
three weeks
from American athletes
haven'texactly
been the high
point in our
country's
long history of sports, and I am
not just talking about the Winter
Olympics.
American snowboarder Lindsey Jacobellis, however, typifies exactly what's wrong with
American athletes. In the past
15 years, American athletes
have come across this mentality
of preferring to look cool losing
than winning in a boring fashion. For those of you who have
shunned the Winter Olympics
because the paint drying channel
is more entertaining, here is what
the proud American did.
Jacobellis was competing in
the Women's Snowboard Cross,
which is basically a race down
a hill against three other risktakers. Early into the medal race
the three other riders lost control
and Jacobellis had the race won
if she just stayed on her board.
Being the true American that she
is, however, she felt the need to
attempt a trick on the final jump
right before the finish line. Mind
you, in this event the only thing
that counts is crossing the finish
line. Of course, she bombs her
trick and falls down which allows
one of her competitors the time to
pass her up and cause Jacobellis
to get silver.
Again, in true American style,
she tried to lie about what she
was trying to do. In the interview right after the event, she
claimed that she needed balance
so she grabbed her board in mid
air to do so, but she didn't know
if she wanted to do method air or
indie air. In that situation neither
was necessary. She didn't have to
touch the board.
When Bob Costas interviewed
her I wanted to jump through
the TV because she downplayed
the whole thing, talking about
how she was glad to get a medal
and what matters to her is that
she will always be known as an
Olympian. I would like, for just
once, an American athlete to go
in front of a camera and just say,
"I screwed up," or "I don't know
what I was thinking, but it was
stupid."
I have met a few American
Olympians, some who have
won gold and some who have
won silver, and those who have
won silver have admitted they
screwed up, but they didn't screw
up because of showboating, like
Jacobellis.
The thing that bugs me more
than people not taking responsibility for their own actions is
people who don't realize how fortunate they are to be where they
are. Barry Bonds, Ricky Williams, and Sammy Sosa all hit a
nerve with the American public
the past few weeks.
Bonds spent all last week complaining about being a baseball
player. Oh boo hoo Mr. Roid,
poor you, you have to swing a
bat and throw a ball for a living.
He spent last week saying that
this is going to be his last season,
then saying he isn't quite sure,
then saying he doesn't care about
being 47 home runs away from
the all-time home run record
and then saying, "ouch my body
hurts." Seriously, who complains
about getting paid to play a sport
for a living? Well, I guess it isn't
as bad as turning down money to
play a sport.
Sammy Sosa may not be an
American athlete, but he sure
acts like one. Sosa had only one
offer from a MLB club to play
baseball this season and that was
a one year contract for 500,000
dollars from the Washington
Nationals. Sosa went on to say
that it was offensive to be offered
such little money. How many of
you would be insulted if someone
threw 500 grand at you to play
baseball? There are many MLB
players who can't get a contract,
like the sultan of syringes, Jose
Canseco, who would play catch
with a live hand grenade for that
kind of money.
The dumbest athlete last week
had to be Tommy Chong's doobie
double from "Up in Smoke",
Ricky Williams, when he was
notified that he is facing a year
suspension because it seems as
though he failed a fourth drug
test. Apparently, Ricky likes
green plants more than green
paper because I've lost count of
how much money he's lost with
these failed drug tests. If this suspension goes through, his career
is likely over because the NFL
isn't too keen on running backs
over 30 years old that would
rather light up a joint than light
up the scoreboard. Even the potheads who heard about this story
were like, "Dude, you're giving
us a bad name." Of course they
barely just got word about it yesterday.
Finally, the kicker of them all
doesn't involve an American athlete, but he is Canadian, so geographically it's close enough. Of
late, Wayne Gretzky looks as bad
as a crack addict, due to the stress
of not medaling in the Winter
pi%pp

Olympics, losing his mom and
grandmother in a three week
span, and the realization that his
assistant coach and wife were
caught up in an illegal gambling
ring. As time consuming as those
first three things are, how can
you not know your wife and best
friend are gambling hundreds of
thousands of dollars? Also, the
one thing I find most interesting
about this situation is that generally women don't have severe
gambling problems. It is usually
males who are prone to betting
thousands of dollars at the drop of
a puck. It is usually male athletes
who find people to make bets for
them so there isn't a paper trail
to their name. As a male athlete,
who do you trust more than your
own wife? Enough said.
I wish some of these people
would count to 10 or even 100
before they did anything in their
life. Maybe then that would prevent some of these bonehead
actions. Is the nation just less
intelligent now, or did athletes in
the past actually understand how
lucky they were to be doing what
they were doing and just tried not
to screw up their position in life?

�Response to lock talk with Josh
Robbins Report
BY JASON ROBBINS
Special to The Pride
Censorship! Censorship!
May these words plunge from
the heavens like dull arrows in a
bright sky; may god allow them
to reach the good people of San
Marcos to alert them of the real
assault--an assault on expression that occurs in dark rooms by
newspaper editors who stir brews
of power and irrationality.
My friends and colleagues: It's
passive voice, but the Robbins
Report was censored.
Last week I responded in a
revised version of my column to
the factual inaccuracies and poor
reasoning that comprised the previous week's letter to the editor. I
defended myself, and I defended
the honor, of argumentation. The
piece was about truth and reasoning. It was nearly a PSA for education.
"It's just not goingin," my editor
said as he tossed a couple of turd
logs at the wall. We (the editor
in chief and he) don't want folks
carrying on arguments in "The
Pride"; we don't want to see anything else about Women's Studies
in "The Pride"; blah, blah, blah,
blah, blah and blah.
I know, these folks are editors
and they are responsible for editing the paper into a quality product. Like Smokey said in the
movie 'Friday', "and you know
this, man!"
My contention is that my
Fuhrer's decision to edit my
column all the way off of the page
was an irrational decision
While my revised column
included multiple occurrences of
the term "Women's Studies", they
appeared only in the context of
discussions about poor reasoning.
While some might have cited my
column for transporting an argument across campus lines, others
might have viewed it as being
intellectual dialogue between
two scholars with strong and very
diverse opinions. The smarter of
the others might have even recognized the fact that I focused in on
the arguments and abstracted the
author.
I made this case, but my editor
upheld the decision. The difference is that this time he threw less
turd logs at the wall.
They censored a column that
bears my surname and leaks my
blood and I'm still lying awake at
night without an explanation. Try
this question guys: What the heck
is a personal op-ed column if you
can't be your own person and can't
express certain opinions?
You can say whatever you want
Jason, just not this or that, and not
to that person.
Readers: I'll talk to you folks
about more substantial issues next
week. Hopefully...

�It's always a man's world September 11: a movieP
BY PIYAMAS J. Y.
SABLAN
Pride Staff Writer
According to the CSUSM
web site http://www.csusm.
edu/newsmedia/background/
stu-enrollhtm, fall 2005 student enrollment consisted of
63.5 percent females and 36.5
percent males. Since CSUSM
has a majority female population, I thought Pdfocussome
attention on some femalerelated issues and concerns.
I recently overheard a comment on Valentine's Day that
wouldn't have disturbed me
a few months ago but fortunately since the start of my
psychology of women's class
this semester, things that
have been lying dormant in
the shadows of my mind have
now been brought into the
light. The comment I overheard was from a courier at
work griping over the woes
and obligations of men during
the Valentine's Day holiday.
"It's a woman's world," he
said. My apologies for rattling
the very foundation this society has been built upon, but
it is definitely not a "woman's
world." For those of you who
are not fortunate enough to
take Psych 350, here is just
a morsel from the buffet of
knowledge and perspective it
provides.
If this was a femaleempowered world, strength
would be defined as childbirth and spirit, not how
much weight someone can
bench. All males would have
a curfew since they are the
main perpetrators of violence
against women. Once the
curfew was in effect, females
could roam the streets without fear of harm. Men take
for granted the luxury of
being able to walk around
without fear for their safety
or lives 24 hours, seven days
a week. Females can't even
feel 100 percent safe in the
comfort of their own homes.
Statistics ofrapescommitted
in the United States remove
one of the essential elements
of the statistic, the criminal.
Instead of wording statistics
like "every second, three
women are raped", why aren't
statistics worded to include
the committer of the crime?
Applicable statistics should
state that "a man rapes a
woman every three seconds."
There is only one prototype
for the perfect female figure.
A woman basically must be
skinny, almost boyishly so,
yet have huge breasts. How
many females in the population canfitinto that mold? Yet
males aren't given the same
matchbox to fit into. Handsome can mean a variety of
sizes and shapes. Men can be
chunky, slim, tall, or short
and still be considered attractive by society's standards.
Females have also given into
the injustice by trying to fit
the mold. Makeup is utilized
because females don't wake
up attractive the way men
do. Numerous diet plans are
in abundance to help females
achieve the ''perfect" figure.
People try to downplay the
injustice females suffer by
depersonalizing those who
demand their voices be heard.
They refer to those brave
individuals with slurs such as
"bra burners" and joke about
them being so extreme that
they grow out their armpit
and leg hair. Feminism is not
a negative word that should
induce emotions of shame.
Feminism should be a roar
resonating from the souls
of individuals, males and
females, with the end result
being an eruption of pride,
strength, and unity.
Everyone has a mother,
sister, daughter, girlfriend,
wife, or femalefriend.Males
should be aware that even
though they may walk out the
same door to start their day as
the females in their lives, they
walk into a different world.
BY ALFRED CHU
Special to The Pride
September 11 was a day that shocked
Americans as no other single day ever
had previously. In the following weeks,
we glued ourselves to the television
watching the footage caught from that
dreadful day as well as waiting for
recent updates. In the months and years
that followed, books, publications,
endorsements, charities, documentaries, etc have all touched on that event
However there's one more medium that
hasn't directly exploited that event: the
Hollywood Motion Picture.. .until now.
Paramount Pictures, director Oliver
Stone and actor Nicholas Cage are currently in production of "World Trade
Center". Thefilmwill focus on the true
story of John McLoughlin and William
J. Jimeno, who were the last two survivors rescued from the rubble of Ground
Zero. Only in production, Stone has
already issued statements to the media
defending thefilmand rebutting against
criticism. The film will be shot in Los
Angeles on a sound stage while news
footage of the event will be added separately. Stone and the producers have
also met with the 9/11 families to retain
accuracy as well as consent. According to USA Today, Stone has promised
sensitivity on the subject, and that's all
well and good but then again, Stone
stated I believed Bush Sr. when he said
"Read my lips: no new taxes."
Let's break it down like a fraction.
First, we can all agree that Hollywood
has a reputation of exaggerating, dis-
torting, etc true stories and events.
We've seen this done time and again.
Second, this is another example of Hollywood looking for new material to
produce onfilm.I guess constant adaptations and remakes can't always be
lucrative. Third, Hollywood has high
hopes of making money off this event.
Fourth, we all know controversy sells
("The Passion of the Christ"). That's
nothing new. Fifth, Stone has a reputation of making controversial films
("Platoon"). Would you really want
"controversy" surrounding an event
such as this? I think not. Sixth, if this
film should bomb critically and/or
financially, either way, Stone's career is
close to over. And lastly, Stone promised sensitivity but when push comes to
shove, who is he going to be more loyal
to, the audience or the people signing
his paycheck?
I'm not banning the film nor am
I condemning it, although that day
might come when I see it. Yet it's too
soon to be making a film about September 11 and more importantly, too
sensitive of a subject. Having lived
across the Hudson River in New Jersey
during that time, I still keep in contact
with friends who lost someone during
the attack. I still keep in contact with
those who witnessed the collapse of
the World Trade Center. To this day, I
still have same feelings for the victims
as well as the perpetrators. It was one
of the rare moments where we were
brought together through a commonality, if only for a short while. Mr. Stone,
stand down on this one.

�How To...
Celebrate
MARDI GRAS
BY AMANDA KEELEY
Pride Staff Writer
The throwing of beads, invitations to masquerade balls, purple,
green and gold decorations lining
the streets can only mean one
thing - Mardi Gras!
According to Holidays.net,
Mardi Gras was brought to New
Orleans due to its richness in
French Culture in 1699. Mardi
Gras season actually starts on
Jan. 6, the "Epiphany holiday",
according to Carnival.com,
which is twelve days after Christmas and until midnight on Mardi
Gras day (Fat Tuesday).
The official colors of Mardi
Gras are purple, green and gold,
which were established in 1872
by Rex, King of Carnival. Each
color has a particular meaning,
for instance, purple means justice, green represents faith, and
gold equals power.
According to MardiGras.com,
Mardi Gras began as pagan holiday to celebrate the end of winter
and coming of spring. Since the
celebration was so popular, the
Catholic Church kept the tradition, but placed some limits on it
by stating that Mardi Gras festivities were only to last from Three
King's Day to Ash Wednesday.
Basically, Mardi Gras is all about
enjoying the appetite of life by
feasting and partying before the
fasting of Lent.
You don't have to be from New
Orleans to celebrate Mardi Gras,
because on Fat Tuesday, Feb.
28, in downtown San Diego's
Gaslamp Quarter, from 7 p.m.
to 12 a.m., they will be having
their own Mardi Gras festivi-
ties. There will befivelive stage
performances, the G Street Party
Stage located on 6th Avenue and
G Street will feature DJ Marc
Thrasher, NRG, Polyester and
the Platforms and KC and the
Sun Shine Band. On the E Street
Club Stage, located North of E
Street and 5th Avenue, DJ's Erick
Diaz & Adam Salter with Siesta
Records, Scooter and Lavelle and
Miss Lisa will be performing.
On 4th Avenue, Tipitina Stage
located on 4th Avenue and Island
Avenue will be showing DJ Mac,
The Frappe' Brass Band, The
Wild Apache Mardi Gras Indians, The 504 Brass Band, and
Kirk Joseph Backyard Groove.
The K Street Gaslamp Stage on
6th Avenue and K Street features
DJ Scott Martin, Dirty Sweet,
Lady Dottie and the Diamonds,
Truckee Brothers, and Reeve
Oliver. Finally, on G Street,
between 4th and 5th Avenue, is
the G Street Lips Experience.
Mardi Gras in the Gaslamp
Quarter is presented by Southern Comfort, so be sure to grab a
Southern Comfort Hurricane, as
they will be served all night! The
fun doesn't stop there; at 8:30
p.m. there will be a parade that
spans eight blocks down Gaslamp
Quarter and lasts about 35 to 40
minuets.
Local radio stations are getting in on the action as well. 101
KGB will have afloatand a booth
set up at the event. They will be
giving away free passes and winners will get to ride on the float.
Dana from Rock 105.3 says
they will also have a float in the
parade.

no still or video cameras will be

the Senior Marketing Manager with the Gaslamp Quarter
Association, said that last's year
Mardi Gras was "very successful," which made it possible for
such bands as KC and the Sun
Shine Band to perform this year
and give "emerging bands a
chance to perform." Dan Flores
hopes people will get to discover
new bands, and have a good time
while giving back to the community. Some of the proceeds go
to keeping the streets clean and
safe. The great thing about Mardi
Gras in the Gaslamp Quarter is
that you don't have to be in New

University Police report

Pride Staff Writer
University Police prepare for the spring
semester, highlighting crime alerts, offering students sound-advice and welcoming
three new members to the department.
"The area, not only the campus, is growing," said Chief of Police, Aaron Woodward
about the concerns of a growing campus in
relation to the growth of the department.
"Our concern is that we are allotted 15 officers; base staffing is only what is budgeted.
We would like to get ahead of the game, in
terms of staffing."
Over the holiday break, the Police made
four arrests; two alcohol related incidents,
one drug possession and one drug possession with the intent to sell.
A male was arrested after driving past
campus on Twin Oaks Valley Road, where
he made an illegal u-turn, on Friday, Dec.
30. The simple traffic violation led to the
discovery that the driver had over one and
half grams of methamphetamine in his possession. The driver was arrested and taken
to jail.
Two days later, on the first of the year, a
male was taken to jail for being drunk in
public. Another alcohol related incident
occurred on Jan. 8, when a UVA resident
notified the Police Department that her inebriated boyfriend was attempting to drive
off, despite her pleas. There are also allegations that the boyfriend damaged UVA
property when throwing a rock at a window,
but Police are still investigating this case.
University Police also arrested a known
San Marcos gang member on charges
of drug possession with intent to sell.
During a routine equipment violation
stop, an Officer noticed that a passenger
in the backseat of the vehicle had marijuana. After further investigation, the
police were able to find evidence suggesting that the male had intentions on selling
the ounce and a half of marijuana. The
affiliated gang member, a parolee, was
arrested and booked in jail. The driver
was cited for an equipment violation and
driving without a license.
In addition to the Police Department's
focus on crime activity, the department
also promotes community involvement
and education. In December, the department participated in the Teddy Bear Drive
for the young patients at Children's Hospital. CSUSM's University Police DepartSee POLICE, page 4

California State University San
Marcos' Alumni Association is sponsoring a congressional debate for special election candidates replacing
former House Representative Randy
"Duke" Cunningham. All registered
candidates will be invited to participate
in the debate, which is scheduled to be
held on Thursday, March 23 from 7 to
9 p.m. at the M. Gordon Clarke Field
House/University Student Union.
The 50th Congressional District seat
was vacated on December 1, 2005
after Cunningham pleaded guilty to
accepting more than $2 million in
bribes in a criminal conspiracy.
"He was a good friend to the
campus," said Chartes D. Guthrie
Jr., executive director of the Alumni
Association, about former Congressman Cunningham. "He was the first

It was December of '03 when an
old friend of mine began giving
updates on a new friend of his,
each one giving little opportunity
to do more than gape and quietly
send out a little anonymous hope.
When, a few weeks ago, he handed
over his T-mobile Sidekick, "here,
Ivy speaks French too," I was
more than a little pressed for the
right vocabulary. That any student
here could have passed her in the
hall stirs an amazing interaction
between curiosity and compassion. There's nothing sensational
or exclusive about being able to
email Ivy an interview, save that
she is that much closer to recovery
and that much more able to show
us a person who refuses to be lost.
So, I think the first thing we
better start out with is the website you mentioned, not just the
address, but who set it up, who
maintains it, etc.
www.thebookofivy.com was
set up by my dad. He does all the
work for it, he set it up, and he
keeps it going. The web space
was given to him by The Reef. I'm
not sure what The Reef is, I just
know it is a website. My website
has a link to my benevolent fund,
which is used to help pay for
all my horrible medical expenses.
Could you describe your high
school experience for us in some
detail? Where did you attend,
what was it like academically/
socially?
I went to Temecula Valley
High School, and it was the worst
time of my life. I was surrounded

a little different a chance. I was
a good student who had a 4.0
through my entire senior year
when most students were slacking off. I had a very small group

never afraid to speak my mind,
stand up for the underdog and tell
people when they were stupid.
What was the state of your college plans when you graduated?
My dream was always to go
to Berkeley. Unfortunately, my
father was out of work and we
couldn't afford it. My plan was to
do my general education at a less
expensive school and then transfer to Berkeley for my major. I was
planning on majoring in either
music, photography, or French.
Did any classes, high school or
otherwise, give you any insight
into either side of the experience?
None at all.

personal detail). Is there anything you want to share about
your hospital experience?
I really don't remember much
about the accident. I remember I
was driving between 70-75 MPH
in the fast lane. Some jerk wanted
to go faster, so he cut me off. I
swerved to miss him and lost
control. I went over a cliff and
was thrown 150 feet. I landed face
down in a bush, which crushed
my chest. All ribs were broken in
multiple places. I broke my sternum which ruptured my spleen,
lacerated my liver, and bruised
my heart. My lungs had collapsed and werefillingwith fluid.
The paramedics had to place an
emergency chest tube in the field
(which is almost never done). I
was flown to the hospital with
less than 1% chance of survival.
You will have to be more specific
about what you want to know
concerning my hospital stay. It
was almost 2 years, after all.
Is there anything in particular
you feel you might have 'missed
out' on?
I missed out on a lot. I didn't
get to see my brother graduate
because I was too sick. I spent
both my 20th and 21st birthdays in the hospital and with
sepsis. AFI (my favorite band of
all time) called me on my birthday, but I was too sick to talk to
them. I missed out on 2 years of
my kitty's life, which may not
seem to be that big of a deal, but
she is like my child. I missed out
on concerts I wanted to go to, the
opportunity to sing with AFI,
and social events with friends.

USC could have considered an alternate play such as the one that USC
used against Notre Dame on fourth-,

and found Dwayne Jarrett in one-onone coverage down the sideline.
Secondly, this was not the best college football game of all time. That's
all I have been hearing about for two

maybe top 10 of all time but certainly
not the best. Yes, this game did have
two Heisman winners, two undefeated teams, and a bunch of future
NFL players, but the 2003 national
championship between Miami and
Ohio St also had a ton of future
NFL players like Craig Krenzel,
Willis McGahee, Ken Dorsey, Chris
Gamble, and Drew Carter. The 2003
game also went into several overtimes and included an even bigger
upset than the Texas game because
everyone thought Ohio St. would not
be able to score possession for possession with Miami.
Now that USC is no longer a guarantee hopefully the sun doesn't let me

BY ERIN YOUNG

A new order w as
issued on Dec. 23, 2005
"prohibiting all 23 CSU
campuses f rom engaging

According to the alcohol
policy released by the

"The CSU believes that

all members of the university community," said

"The

Survey shows students support Letter from the editor

change in campus food options
BY DEBRA DOERFLER
Special to The Pride
Ever wondered if your
thoughts about the campus
food options were shared by
other students? Well find out
here: A survey of the student body was conducted in
November of2005. The survey
addressed the attitudes of
CSUSM students concerning
the current food choices being
offered on campus including
its quality and price.
In addition, information was
gathered on what substitute
food choices they might prefer
over the current offerings.
The information obtained
from the survey indicated that
most students are dissatisfied with the food options on
campus. The primary reason
behind the dissatisfaction is
the price; most expressed that
the prices charged are too
high and the available options
too limited.
Over half (64 percent) of the
respondents indicated they felt
the value of food was only fair
or poor.
When questioned about
eating on campus 21.9 per-
cent of respondents indicated
they brought food to campus
from home while another 8.8
percent actually went home to
eat.
Another segment chose not
to eat campus food but purchased food off-site and ate
off-site (18.4 percent) or purchased off-site and returned to
campus (7 percent).
Despite the apparent dissatisfaction with food options
available on campus 27.2 percent of respondents indicated
that they do purchase food on
campus.
When questioned about the
categories of food purchased
most often on campus the
majority of respondents indicated that they purchase beverages.
The next most frequently
purchased food types were
sandwiches and pizza.
On overwhelming majority of the respondents indicated, they were aware of
food options at "The Dome",
"Campus Coffee", "Starbucks"
and the various vending
machines. However, not many
were aware that food is available at the "Cougar Den".
Students named 23 unique
food vendors they would like
to see on campus, all but one
being "fast-food".
Given the option of having
new food choices on campus
students were three times
more likely to suggest a burger
type eatery (Wendy's, Carl's
Jr., etc), a deli style eatery
(Subway, Quizno's, etc.), or
a Mexican style eatery (Mr.
Taco, Del Taco, etc.) vs. pizza,
chicken specific, or oriental
type eateries.
Slightly less than 10 percent
of respondents indicated they
would like to see a pub style
eatery (with beer) on campus.
What does all this mean? For
you, the student, it means if
you want to see some changes
you (we) need to unite our
voices, start a letter writing
campaign, let our dissatisfaction be heard by the administration!
The survey was conducted
by Marketing 442 students,
Debra
Doerfler,
Albert
Orozco, Matt Leventhal and
Nick Villarino, as part of a
class project.

We have set some hefty goals
for ourselves here at The Pride.
We have pulled together an eclectic team of writers and editors who
have brought you, the Cougars of
Cal State San Marcos, a pretty darn
good newspaper. Now, we want to
go beyond last semester and bring
forth a paper worthy of the city of
San Marcos. I do hope that you, the
readers, will continue to email us at
The Pride (pride@csusm.edu) with
how you feel we are doing.
First, I will give you a n update on
our staff. The four main editors are
returning. Zachary, Christine, and
Erin will continue to bring the articles in. The Ombudsman from last
semester really kept us in check, so
I promoted him to Managing Editor.
Let us know if he does a good job.
If you emailed him last semester,
please continue to do so.
Our layout and design will be our
biggest change. Jason Encabo, who
should never be forgotten when talking about editors, has moved to the
position of business manager. So,
you will probably be seeing a new
look for The Pride in the coming
weeks as the new layout person,
Jason Saumur, will be taking the
helm.
We have a new staff of writers
starting this week. The first class is
tonight at 5 p.m. and we should see
some new names in the paper in the
coming weeks.
Last semester, we saw the birth of
some reoccurring themes and columnists. Robbins Report brought some
controversy and Cash Corner had some
good advice. We hope to continue these
columns this semester with a long time
favorite Jock Talk with Josh.
We are still looking for more.
Believe it or not, good writers are
not easy to find.
So, we are looking for a few good
writers who are interested in beats.
A beat is a journalism term that
refers to writing for a specific area.
For instance, we are interested in a
business beat, something that might
coincide with Cash Corner, a medical beat, and a political beat. Plus,
we could always use a good movie
critic.
The journalism class will help students write in all sections of a newspaper, like News and Features. So if
you are interested in newspapers, I
highly recommend it.
One of my favorite sections in our
newspaper is the opinion section.
Students can put down on paper their
frustrations and concerns about a
multitude of subjects. Politics, food
on campus, and even The Pride are
all topics that can be covered by you,
the student. Please air your frustrations with us, just have you facts
straight.

Robbins Report
BY JASON ROBBINS
Special to The Pride
According to our President,
defeatists are those folks who
refuse to see anything that is right
or positive. Mommy, I don't want
to be a defeatist.
Given the opportunity, our
President might have labeled me
a defeatist last year. I trashed
ASI for serving our needs with a
sex-worker advocate, questioned
those categorically opposed to
fee increases, and plowed over
the idea of a border fence.
This year, I'm going to play
nicely.

H ow To ... Squash Jealousy
BY ERIN YOUNG
Pride Staff Writer
"A man without jealousy is like
a ball without bounce." Ok, so we
all get a little jealous sometime.
Big deal, it's only natural. But
how far is too far?
I want to clear the smoke about
jealousy. It's highly normal - the
fear of losing the one person you
love most is an overwhelming
emotion. But when your emotions
are centered around reading your
partner's mind and if you can't
read their mind you take it upon
yourself to look through their
cell phone (outgoing, incoming
calls and text messages) it's gone
abnormally too far.
When you suffer from jealously you're letting your emotions and insecurities get the
best of you, it can change who
you are as a human being. You
become aggressive, excluded and
honestly crazy. A common misconception about unhealthy jealousy is the belief that it measures
your partner's interest and love
in the relationship, when in fact
it is only the measurement of the
insecurity level.
Thefirststeps to cure your jealous ways are to: recognize and
admit it. As long as you know
you have a problem you can work
on it .
Take your insecurities and
'squash' them. Be comfortable
in your own skin and most of all:
be confident. Yes, easier said then
done, but find that inner fire that
drives you to be who you are, no
one or any amount of jealousy
can take that away from you.
Get to the core of your jealousy
- are you scared that your partner is going to cheat? A word of
advice, if someone is low enough
to cheat on their supposed loved
one there is nothing you can do
to prevent it, you might be able to
delay it with words and actions
but sooner or later it's bound to
happen, and wouldn't you rather
have it be sooner than later so you
stop wasting your time?
According to webmd.com "to
overcome or at least dilute jeal-
ously you most know your own
strengths, what do you specifically bring to the table?" Everyone is exceptional in their own
way so what's different about
you? Also, "don't
compare yourself
to anyone else
because you're
only sabotaging your own
uniqueness."
"It's
important
to remember
that jealousy
has a purpose,
all emotions try
to tell us something
about ourselves, jealousy is a fear of losing
power."
Jealousy
is
compulsive,
snooping and violating another's
privacy is only going to harm
your relationship and torture you
with unanswerable questions?
The best way to 'squash' jealousy
is dealing with it directly, before
it causes your relationship to self
destruct.

Faculty Files Grievance

istration and faculty.
The "faculty workload issue"
revolves around a grievance filed
by the San Marcos chapter of
the faculty union, the California
Faculty Association (CFA), which
is pending arbitration scheduled
for October 28. Although the
details of the arbitration are not
made public, the outcome of this
hearing will set a precedent that
will determine the future direction of faculty workload.
CSUSM President Alexander
Gonzalez explains, "Faculty is
contracted to work twelve (12)
credit hours per semester."
Gonzalez continues, "This labor
contract is part of a collectivebargaining agreement, which covers the entire CSU system, and
clearly states a standard of direct
instruction per semester."
During his address at the
Students have many factors
to consider when deciding on
which college to attend. Many
CSUSM students credit the small
classes, the writing requirement,
and the availability of professors
as factors that ultimately add
value to their education as well
as to their degrees. Students have
also noted that the reputation
of the institution will continue
to influence the value of their
degrees long after they leave this
campus.
The window of opportunity
is still wide open for CSUSM
to decide its future direction.
However, what many students
may be unaware of are long-term
debates over workload issues and
contract disputes between admin-
University's
Convocation,
President Gonzalez stated, "We
are a CSU campus and we do have
to follow system-wide guidelines
and operate within our funding
formula which is predicated on
15 units per Full Time Equivalent
Student (FTES) and 12 Direct
Weighted Teaching Units (WTU)
for faculty."
"The faculty argues that funding increases depend strictly on
FTES, not on faculty teaching 12,
units," according to Dr. George
Diehr, local union CFA President
and Professor of Management
Science. "In fact," Diehr contends, "there is no mention anywhere of faculty being required to

Plant Underway
By: Brian Fisher
Pride Staff Writer
A $2.4 million dollar project
to expand the Central Plant oh
the south side of campus is currently underway. The plant houses two large tanks, a boiler and
a cooler.
Dave Dennis of John Carey
Construction explains that water
from the tanks is pumped into
campus buildings where fans
blow air over the top of the water.
This acts as both a heater and an
air conditioner, providing build-
ings with hot or cool air. The
water is then pumped back into
the tanks where it is re-heated
or cooled.
The $1.8 million dollar expansion will extend the length of the
plant north approximately 25ft.
The two-story expansion will
house an additional boiler and
cooler ($600,000 dollars worth
of equipment), enough to service
future buildings such as the new
library, Arts and Sciences building, and futurfe Business building.
Since the year 1984, a genetically-altered micro algae, mysteriously introduced into the
Mediterranean Sea, has been
invading many connected ecosystems, particularly on the French
and Italian Riviera. However, Kai
Palenscar, a 21 year-old biology
student, is the first-known discoverer of the only US growth
of the algae, Cualerpa taxifolia,
in Carlsbad's Agua Hedionda
Lagoon.
Palenscar, who frequents the
lagoon to fish, found a small
growth of the green plant in June
1996 while leisurely walking dur-
ing low tide. Unable to identify
the plant, he unearthed it and took
* it home to grow in his own aquarium, photographing and dating
the specimen.
The invasion and rapid
growth of the algae has led to a
drastic impoverishment of algal
and sea grass communities. A
vast decline in bio- and ecodiversity has been noted as the
marine pest grows over the seabed, choking off light and nutrients from other organisms.
While looking through photos, Palenscar recognized the
much larger patches of seaweed
(one described as the size of a
volleyball court) that local biologists had independently discov-
ered in J\me 2000. Palenscar contacted and provided the biologists
with information, which caused
them to re-date the estimated
length of time the seaweed has
been growing in the lagoon.
The marine biologists "estimated that the algae had only
been growing in the lagoon for
two years," said Palenscar, "but
after confirming that what I found
was the same species, they knew
it had been growing there for
at least four years." This information was undoubtedly helpful
in generating more accurate figures, such as growth rate.

"several faculty members filed a
grievance over that increase."
With faculty at CSUSM meeting FTES enrollment goals and
the administration not yet imposing a 12-unit course load, where
is the center of contention?
The contention revolves
around budget disputes. If the
administration has its way, faculty will have to increase their
workload by as much as 33 percent. Diehr explains how "Over
the past two years, the addition
of 950 FTES provided about
$6 million in growth money to
CSUSM" (based on the university receiving $6,454 each additional PTE). Diehr also claims
"Since the campus was funded to
add faculty at the rate of one per
twenty students, we should have
added about 47 to FTE faculty.
Yet, we have added less than 19
faculty. In light of faculty rising
to the challenge of meeting FTES
enrollment," he wonders, "why is
our administration making such
a big deal about workload?"
Since the university publicly
promotes its small class sizes,
availability of professors for students, and its signature writing-across-the-curriculum program, faculty members agree
that increasing enrollments without increasing faculty size will
dramatically alter the hallmark
features of the new university.
Many students complain that
these promises have already been
broken.
Class sizes have already
grown in order to meet enrollment demands, and students have
noted that the writing requirement is not consistently implemented in every course. When
asked about the seeming lack
of accountability for the mandated 2,500-word writing requirement in every course, President
Gonzalez
responded,
"the
administration is aware that not
all courses are implementing
the writing requirement but
accountability does not come
at the administration level; the
Academic Senate Committee
oversees faculty course curriculum."
Dr. Gerardo
Gonzalez,
Academic Senate Committee
Chair, responded to the same
question by stating that the
Academic Senate Committee is
unaware of any specific cases
of the writing requirement not
being implemented.
While CFA union leader
George Diehr states that he is
aware that not all courses are
fully implementing the writing
requirement, the writing requirement is not a contracted item and
the CFA is not accountable for
overseeing thi^program.
Nevertheless, in the discussion of workload issues, the prior
practice of the university in allotting three (3) weighted teaching
units to meet the extra work
involved in responding to and
grading student papers under the
university's writing program figures prominently. Since the CFA
acknowledges that "most (tenuretrack) faculty are not teaching
four, 3-unit courses," and no one
is held accountable for implementation of this publicly promoted program, some students
may wonder how the quality of
their education will figure into
the future direction of the university.
CSUSM Barahona Center
Unlike Any Other In World

Kai Palenscar discovered the algae in Carlsbad Lagoon.

Southern California.
Palenscar explained that "the
choseg methods of removal are
important and limited because,
given the reproductive nature of
this single-celled organism, it
would require only 1MM of the
plant to break off or float away
for it to begin multiplying elsewhere very quickly." The algae
can even live out of water for ten
days. Thus, the plant cannot safely be physically removed, and
the lagoon has been quarantined
and cordoned off to prevent tiny
fragments of C. taxifolia from
being spread by boat anchors. If
the algae were to spread from
the lagoon, "the whole rocky reef
plant and animal assemblage off
our coast would be dramatically
transformed," says Bob Hoffman
of the National Marine Fisheries,
Service Southwest Region,
Asked whether the use of
such potent chemicals would further disrupt or endanger the surrounding environment, Palenscar
answered confidently that it was
probably the safest solution.
"Most of the chlorine, which is in
drinking water, will be absorbed
by the organic plant matter, and
In January 2000, CSUSM's
Center for the Study of Books
in Spanish received a $ 100,000
dollar endowment from Gaby and
Richard Sulpizio, President of
Qualcomm, Inc.
This past summer, July 13,
the Center was renamed the Barahona Center for the Study of
Books in Spanish for Children
and Adolescents. Gaby Sulpizio
had requested the name in honor
of her parents, Flora and the late
Francisco Barahona. However,
apart from the Sulpizio donation
and the name change, many individuals may not know much about
this unique center.
The Barahona Center for the
Study of Books in Spanish for
Children and Adolescents is the
only one of its kind in the world,

S tudents Want?
By: Kathleen Hash
Pride Staff Writer
Here we are at California
State University San Marcos, and
what students are doing is anybody's guess. The student body at
San Marcos State is so diverse, as
you may have read in any number
of the university's publications.
However, diversity at CSUSM
isn't about color or creed. The
students, differ more in goals
and aspirations, how they define
themselves, what'they want out
of life, and how they believe
CSUSM will help them reach
thdir goals.
From Chemistry, to Women's
Studies, to Business, everyone
on campus is working towards a
degree that they hope will somehow enrich them, either their
minds and bodies or their annual
income.
However, what do you know
about the people you bump into
on the stairs while rushing to
class? Do you even care?
About 6,000 students are
currently enrolled at CSUSM,
and that number is expected to
increase by 400 full-time students every year. In an address
to A.S.I. last week, President
Gonzalez projected the possibility of 18 to 20 thousand full-time
students by the year 2020.
Do the high standards at
CSUSM, like the writing requirement and the computer literacy
requirement, attract students that
want to graduate from a school
with a good reputation?
San Marcos by default and his
story is anything but uncommon.
"I turned in my application late
to SDSU. I figured I would go
here for one semester, but I liked
it. I ended up getting involved.
I 'm glad I didn't go to SDSU. I
might not be in school still."
Nineteen-year-old
Quoc
Nguyen is a freshman who says
he came to CSUSM because i t
was close to home and he heard it
had a good computer science program. "A higher standard gives
the school a better reputation,"
said Nguyen, "if you graduate
from a higher standard school,
employers will know that."
Bill Robertson, a twenty-five
year old Liberal Arts major, disagrees, "I don't think your school
sells you. They won't know if I am
a good teacher just because I went
to San Marcos." But Robertson
did say that he choose Cal State
San Marcos because it was recommended to him by people who.
knew he wanted to be a teacher.
What Do We Do Now? A Look

Is there enough student life
on campus?
When asked what he thought

Problems with Space
The Center expands according to the number of published
books. "Space is a problem for all
of us," says Schon. The Center,
located i n Craven 4206, will
expand once the new library
building is completed. At the
moment, the Center has keeps
additional shelves filled with
books in a room across the hall
from the Center.
A "Thank-You" Quilt is also
on display in the storage room.
The quilt is from the first class
of fifth-grade students who had
taken a class field trip to the
Center back in 1989. Schon says
that some of those fifth-grade
students, many of whom are now
CSUSM students, had never been

The Center was founded
when Dr. Isabel Schon, a member
of the founding faculty, presented
the idea to then CSUSM President, Bill Stacy, in July 1989.
Schon says that what was needed
at the time was a center to study
books on Spanish and books in
English about Latinos. "I thought
CSUSM would be the perfect
laboratory to study both cultures
because the location was close
to Mexico, and it was just a perfect area," says Schon. The idea
of a Center was presented it to
the Board of Trustees and was
approved.

you went to school. "Employers
are just looking for some kind of
degree," she said.
Not everyone on campus feel
that student life is unimportant
G im Rodriguez is a twenty-year-,
old junior. She is working towards
a Bachelor, of Science degree in
Biology and is Vice President of
the Pre-Health Society, Rodriguez
felt that students should be active
on campus and should have a say
in what they learn. "At first I
didn't mind that there wasn't student life " said Rodriguez, "now
that I am in a club there is more
support, especially when it coordinates with what you want to do
later in life."
Now Rodriguez believes that
student life is an important aspect
in college, "If people didn't want
to go to a college with campus
life, they could go to The
University of Phoenix," she
remarked. Rodriguez also feels
that a school's standard of education reflects the value of the
degree in the job market. "I know
we are working a lot harder for
our degrees than SDSU," she
said.
CSUSM is changing. A
Visual Arts building is currently
in construction. Last semester
the number of clubs on campus
almost doubled, and in two weeks
students will vote trn whether
or not they want to increase
their student fees to help pay for
the Clarke Field House/Student
Union. Decisions are being made
everyday that affect students,
whether or not they care. The
University is growing, and students are slowly being given the
opportunity to say how it grows.

Duets:
The Big
Hustle
By Chelsea Louro>
Pride Staff Writer
Duets, directed by Bruce
Paltrow, i s a funny movie about
hustlers trying to get to a big karaoke contest that offers a $5,000
dollar grand prize.
Throughout the movie you
witness some very strange
relationships between many of
the characters. Liv, played by
Gwyneth Paltrow, is a daughter
abandoned at a very young age by
her father, Ricky, played by Huey
Lewis. At her mother's funeral,
they are once again reunited and
try to recreate their relationship
when they decided to compete in
the karaoke contest.
Probably the most entertaining character throughout the
entire film is Robby, played bylan
Robison. At first Robby is the
typical married sales man with
children, whose job requires him
to stay in one hotel after another.
Soon Robby begins to lose his
mind and ends up in a karaoke
bar. From then on, he is in a quick
downward spiral doing drugs,
drinking, robbing, and singing.
On his journey, he picks
up a hitchhiker named Reggie,
played by Andre Braugher, the
convict with a voice like an angel.
Together they venture to the karaoke contest, trying to arrive in
one piece, and, at the same timed
creating a beautiful friendship.
By the < time everyone gets
to the contest, many characters
have experienced grand adventures, but their biggest adventure
of all. will occur during the contest.
The on-stage duets are my
favorite part of the movie. The
music is great and fits all the characters personalities. I wouldn't
say that this was the best movie
I have ever seen, but I do think
the idea behind the movie was
a good one. Unfortunately, many
parts of the movie dragged on.
Duets is now playing in theatres, but my advice is to save
your money and wait until it
comes out on video. Duets is
rated R.
The WWF: A Love Affair Rekindled
By: Tiaca Carter
Pride Staff Writer
This summer I ran into an
old flame. It was a Thursday
night around eight o'clock and
I was looking for something to
watch while I waited for Will
and Grace to come on. As I
surfed the channels I noticed an
all too familiar sight: the ring,
the tights, the crowd going wild.
It was WWF Smackdown. As I
sat in my living room watching
the wrestlers I couldn't help but
laugh at myself, thinking, " I
used to love this s tuff'. That's
right, I use to love WWF wrestling. But that was a long time
ago.
It was over ten years ago when
I first met the wrestlers of the
World Wrestling Federation. We
would rendezvous at
o'clock
on Saturday afternoons after my
breakfast with Saturday morning
cartoons. Me, Hulk Hogan, Andre
the Giant,. Junkyard Dog, Jake
"The Snake" Roberts, Dusty
Rhodes, and The Ultimate
Warrior.
I'd sit back and watch them
with a gleam in my eye, adoring
every punch, every kick, every
choke, every slam, and every pin
admirably as the wrestlers beat
the crap out of each other.
Then I heard the rumor: wrestling was fake. I was appalled.
How could wrestling be fake?
How could something that I loved
so deeply, that I watched so
faithfully, that was so much of
my Saturday morning routine, be
fake? I could not believe it. I
would not believe it. But then I
started asking myself questions:
How come no one ever got
pinned on the first try, no matter
how beat down they were? How
was it that there never seemed to
be any serious injuries after being
thrown from the top of the ring?
How come Jake "The Snake's"
snake never choked him? All of
these questions began to swirl
in my head; questions that my
innocence kept me from asking
myself, simply because I was
blinded by the love for my wres-

tiers.
As I got older, I began t o
realize certain things. The Easter
bunny was a hoax, my mom was
the tooth fairy, and wrestling
was, indeed, fake. So my love for
the sport slowly began to fade
away.
Now here I was face to face
with the WWF again after all
those years. And I was faced
with a dilemma: what should I
do? Should I change the channel
and act like I never saw it?
No. I did what anyone would
do when face to face with an old
flame. I watched Smackdown. I
watched it as if to say, "Look
at me. I'm all grown up now.
I'm not the naive little girl that
use to watch you. But I have to
say what really won me over was
the scandal, the excitement, the
anticipation of the crowd, and the
bloodthirsty feeling of revenge
for another wrestler by another
one. I enjoyed every minute of
it.
It then occurred to me that
it doesn't matter if wrestling is
fake. What matters is that it is
fun to watch. It was fun to watch
when I was a kid, and it is just
as fun to watch as an adult. I
finished watching Smackdown
with the same feelings that I
had after watching wrestling on
Saturday afternoons when I was
a kid. I can't wait to tell all
my friends what just happened!
Finally, the WWF has come back
to Tiaca.
Dance Music Unlike Any Other
Los Amigos Invisibles Arepa 3000:
A Venezuelan Journey Into Outer Space
By: Rosa Mey
Pride Staff Writer
Los Amigos Invisibles is
a band comprised of six members, all who share the hometown of Caracas, Venezuela.
Their upcoming album, Arepa
3000: A Venezuelan Journey
Into Outer Space, carries tunes
that make no effort to stay in the
confines of any specific musical genre.
The album is stitched

that of the hi-fi lounge sort.
The Los Amigos sound is reminiscent of the space-age
music frontier of the early
60's led by the likes of Juan
Garcia Esquivel, Perez Prado,
and countless more.
However, these guys do not
merely stop with the pop. They
manage to cross-fertilize classic
disco music (yes, shooting lasers,
cow bells, and all), with funk,
hip-hop, lounge, house, drum
and bass, and Latin rhythms
to produce an innovative and
unique album.
When I listened to this CD,
it was apparent to me that a lot
of fun went into making this
music.

For The Truly Sick and Twisted
Steve Kerrin
Pride Staff Writer
Question: How much f un is
to be in a room with 500 or so
people whose sense of humor is
as deranged and perverse as it
gets?
Answer: A lot, if your sense
of humor is deranged and perverse, too.
I'm talking about Spike and
Mike's Sick & Twisted Festival
of Animation at the La Jolla
Museum of Contemporary Art.
For those who have never had
the distinct pleasure of seeing
a series of animated shorts that
would cause a massive MI in
anyone with a distaste for potty
humor, let me assure you that this
show may not be for everyone.
It lives up to its name and will
offend some people, but that's the
point.
What else can you say about
a show featuring shorts with
titles like Coco, the Junkie Pimp,
Radioactive' Crotch Man, and a
piece created entirely with Legos;
Rick and Steve: The Happiest
Gay Couple in All the World. "I'll
never look at Legoland the same
again," said festival viewer Dan
Thorne.
can also separate fiction from
reality.
Attendee Elaine Gilbert and
numerous other people echoed
the comment that perhaps best
described the show: "That was
f**king hysterical!"
Ticket price is $7 and I recommend you get tickets an hour
before show time because this
event sells out regularly. For more
information call (858) 454-0267.

Judging by the crowd's reaction, Pixar Animation Studio's
For the Birds was a show highlight. Wheelchair Rebecca got
a respectable reception, as did
Deep Sympathy; a four-minute
foray into the subject of necrophilia.
But the apparent crowd favorites were the series of stick-andbubble-people animations by Don
Hertzfeldt. Billy's Balloon, one
of several films in the series,

Hertzfeldt, who was at the show.
that will look good in print.
Children beaten by anything is
an appalling idea, but when balloons are doing the beating and
it's all just animation anyway, it's
funny as hell.
If any of this black-and-white

horrified you or even planted a
seed of distaste in your mind, do
everyone a favor and keep your
sheltered sense of humor away
from this show. It is a show for

Menace to Elastica
By: Patrick Roach
Pride Contributing Writer
The Menace is Elastica's follow-up album to the smash hit
debut that climbed the charts in
1995. Fans have had to wait five
years for new music from this
British pop-punk group. Sadly,
the wait has not been worth it.
The Menace fails to live up to the
band's earlier work.
Elastica's melodies and simple three-chord punk progressions, which you found yourself
humming to for hours, are gone.
The Menace album finds itself
mired in techno-style beats as
well as random and distracting
sound
effects.
Justine
Frischmann's vocals, which were
so soft and beautifully clear on
the last record, are now muddled
in a blend of inane and unnecessary background vocals. As the
album progresses, the songs blend
into the next without a noticeable
difference between the two.
There is no outstanding song
on the album that is memorable,
but there are two noteworthy
tracks.
The song My Sex stands out
as the only song on the album
that features Justine Frischmann
talking, instead of singing. In the
song, she describes her ideal love
with simple and elegant words.
My Sex stands out due to its
quiet simplicity amidst the sonic
anarchy of the songs around it.
It's a soft and touching song and
is a good reminder of how exceptional Justine's voice can be. The
other song is a remake of the
band Trio's song, Da Da Da,
which was made popular by a
Volkswagen commercial a little
while back. Elastica overhauled
the song, and it makes an amusing addition at the very end of
the album.
However, after all is said
and done, The Menace is a
major disappointment to fans that
have been waiting since 1995 for
the new Elastica album. Elastica
is obviously experimenting with
their musical sound and are trying to find a musical identity for
themselves. Some day they will
find what it is they're looking
for, but let's just hope the results
will be much better than what
they are putting out now.

Have you ever felt sheepish
about quoting philosophers you
couldn't understand? Does Sartre
make as much sense to you in the
original French as in English?
Are you unsure just exactly how
Nietzsche is pronounced? If so,
you may not be philosophically
literate and in grave danger of
committing any number of intellectual faux pas' in any number
of pretentious and meaningless
discussions with other students.
Fortunately, your participation in philosophical discussions
may no longer be limited to nodding your head arid exclaiming
"how true," nor will you have to
risk damaging one of your frontal
lobes attempting to actually read
"Being and Nothingness."
The Writers and Readers
Documentary Comic Books may
very well be your ticket to legitimate intellectual snobbery This
series attempts to bring lofty
philosophical ideas down t o the
level of the average pseudointellectuals such as myself.
Succeeding admirably is Donald
D. Palmer's Structuralism and
Poststructuralism for Beginners,
an installment from Writers and
Readers Documentary Comic
Books.
Given that Structuralism and
Poststructuralism represents one
of the most arcane regions of
philosophy, this amounts to a
most stirring accomplishment.
Palmer begins by giving a
brief overview of Structuralist
thought, explaining that, in its
simplest form, Structuralism is
merely an approach to analyzing
language, society, art, and, more
specifically, art in the form of
literature and novels.
Palmer goes on to describe
the application of Structrualist
thought to linguistic theory, literary criticism, psychology, political science, and other fields
of human endeavor. The book
also provides brief overviews
of individual proponents of
Structuralism and Post structuralism, describing the thought
and works of Claude LeviStrauss, Roland Barthes, Louis
Althusser, Jacques Lacan, and
Jacques Derrida.
Putting aside any attempt
to describe or evaluate both
Structuralism and Post structuralism, the most remarkable aspect
of this book is Palmer's ability to
make the subject understandable
to the average reader.
Palmer generally uses short
concise sentences, accompanied
by simple comic book like pictures and diagrams.
The pictures serve a duel purpose. Firstly, the cartoon like
appearance of the pictures creates an atmosphere of accessibility. The simple pictures are
much less daunting to the average reader than paragraph after
paragraph of text.
Secondly, the pictures are
very well done, and they elucidate
the accompanying text. Palmer
eschews using the obscure technical language characteristic of
much philosophical writing in
favor of pictorial representations,
proving the . adage "A picture is
worth a thousand words."
The comic book format may
serve a somewhat sardonic purpose as well. Presenting philosophy in this format pokes f un
at the pretensions of philosophers and intellectuals, letting
them know that most everyone
may understand and benefit from
the products of great contemplative minds.
The Writers and Readers
Beginners Documentary Comic
Book Series and the installment
Structuralism and Post structuralism for Beginners, represent
a pleasant infusion of populism
into the study of philosophy.

Has anybody else noticed that
there aren't any students voices
(who are NOT staff writers) represented in the opinion section of
the Pride these days?
It was rumored that President
Gonzalez wanted to totally censor out student expression in the
Opinion section of the Pride after
last Spring's stream of letters
to the Editors, which criticized
CSUSM administration and the
policy makers for not being student-centered. What has hap
pened to our student voice in the
Pride? Is no one sending in letters or ARE we being censored?
Will our beloved Student newspaper represent our voice or is
the rumor true and all hope for
a forum for student expression
lost?
Now it may arguable,
from the Prides perspective, that
students who happen to write
for the Pride write articles in
the Opinion section, and therefore this represents THE Student
Voice. However, the Pride staff
writer's opinion does not represent the general student body's
opinion on certain matters. For
example, the articles published in
the Pride regarding the Student
Union Fee Referendum included
two Pride Staff writers expression their opposing opinions on
the issue. But who's to say that
expressions of opinions on this
issue should be limited exclusively to Pride Staff writers or
CSUSM administrative staff?
Did the Pride receive any
responses from the general student body on ANY of the issue
published in the Opinion section
of the Pride over the last 5 weeks
and if so what happened to them?
Because, as we mentioned, we've
observed that in the last 5 issues
of the Pride, to date, there hasn't
been average student voice being
represented. It seems that what
it comes down to is that there is
no student opinion; the students
have no opinion (published that
is) therefore there is NO student
opinion.
Will this trend continue? If it
does can we expect this expression to be totally discarded or
ruthlessly censored?

What I'm saying is that it's tough

So what can be done to ensure
that second hand smoke doesn't
affect us non-smokers? Presently
smokers go outside and smoke in
stairwells and outside the immediate area of the buildings. At

the floor. Then ashtrays were

So I'd like to suggest that, like
many other establishments, we

Because, ladies and gentlemen, just as sure as death and
taxes, there will be people who
will smoke in this campus for the
foreseeable future. Why can't we

CSUSM Athletes Deal
With Lack of Facilities
By: Steve Compian
Pride Staff Writer
When prospective student
athletes visit Cal State San
Marcos, the tour of the campus
includes a view of the "port-apotty." The mobile outhouse at
the far end of the track represents
CSUSM's lone athletic facility.
In only three years since
it began competing in sports*
CSUSM can boast of nationally
ranked cross-country teams, golf
teams, and All-Americans in
track and field. Yet, while student
athletes are told that CSUSM
athletics is moving into the penthouse, they are still being shown
the outhouse. So how has the
school been able to build a competitive sports program without a
building to house it?
"The coaches are up front
with recruits about the lack of
facilities here," said Debbie Dale,
Athletic Coordinator, "we have to
be completely honest with them
if we're going to be successful."
Other than using restrooms in
the one of the campus buildings,
the port-a-potty is the only place
where athletes can change for
practice. Some athletes actually
use their cars or Dale's office
in Craven Hall as locker rooms.
The golf team has a closet where
equipment can be stored. Dale,
along with assistant Rachel Pena,

While The Pride acknowledges .student Samantha Beltram's concern, we
would like to point out that at no time has

The Pride. However, the campus community, especially all students, is encouraged to utilize our opinion page as an
open forum to voice its concerns.
We agree with Beltram's concern
that there have been few student contributions to the opinion section this
semester, with the exception of students
of The Pride staff, and we encourage all
students to write letters to the editor.
It is important for students to not
only speak their voice, but to take pride
in signing their names to their thoughts.
Therefore, The Pride does not print anonymous letters.
To answer Beltram's question of
whether the trend of no student voice
can continue, only the students have the

idea that a long-awaited student
union would also be part of the
building. Rather than just having
a gym, t he school hopes to provide its students with a complex
that will become the center of
school activities. The building
will also attract additional money
from private firms for the "naming rights" of different facilities
within the field house.
According to Dale, there has
been interest in adding other
sports to CSUSM, including volleyball and soccer. However if
men's and women's sports are
going to progress from the intramural level to the NAIA (National
Association of Intercollegiate
Athletics), more funding is nee*
essary.
In the meantime, the CSUSM
Athletic Department will continue its attempt to make itself selfsupporting by sponsoring events
such as The Cougar Chase on
October 1st. Last year's inaugural 5 k walk-run event attracted
over 500 participants and Dale
hopes that this year there will be
as many as 1000 participants.
The athletic department will
also sponsor a golf tournament
on October 27th called Fore
Education. Both events will benefit CSUSM athletics, but the
income that they generate will
only be enough to defray current
costs.

doing. "No, I have a Masters
Degree in Clinical Counseling "
he replied. I again asked for his
name. But again he refused only
saying, "I have my reasons for
remaining anonymous."
The courtyard emptied and
only a few shoppers remained
to survey the goods. Gina still
smiled brightly, thinking that her
grin would gain her one more
sale. The mysterious man leaned
back in his chair with a smug
expression. Before I left the ring
man's booth, I asked what he
would rather be doing. "Playing
the horses. I just d o this for easy
money," replied the ring man.
With that, I thanked him and
walked away.

racism view

Pride Staff Writer
Stair Photo/ The Pride
Six different leaflets containing racist statements were placed on roughly 300 cars Feb. 6 by
a 15-year old male from La Mesa. The youth claimed to be a member of the White Aryan
Resistance, a white supremicist group started by Fallbrook racist Tom Metzger.

Semester opens with
new racial incidents
By Michael B. Miller

How to
iiiiililllllill^Sli
Cal State San M arcos c ontinues t o be
plagued by racial incidents.
In the latest, a 15-year-old L a Mesa youth
w as c aught distributing racist f liers in the
main students parking lot on Feb. 6.
T he youth, w ho was later released to his
mother and grandfather, told c ampus police
h e was a m ember of the W hite Aryan Resistance, the hate group founded by Fallbrook
r acist T om M etzger. M etzger d enied any
knowledge of the leaflets, but applauded their
distribution.
Last year, after university President Bill
Stacy refused to allow him to address students
on campus during a racial unity day, Metzger
remarked that the university would have been
f ar better off to have allowed him to speak.
T he racial unity day had been scheduled
a fter a woman professor had been confronted
in her classroom by a student who repeatedly
called her a "black bitch" Though the professor herself had introduced that term and tried
t o turn the c onfrontation i nto a a teaching
experience,£ she later reported to authorities
that she feared f or her safety.
T he student eventually l eft the university, w hile the p rofessor s ought, and w as
granted, leave from her classroom duties this
semester t o pursue research.
T he Feb. 6 leaflets O which were l eft on
about 3 00 cars b efore campus security o fficers
intervened O made direct reference to last y ear's
c onfrontation. All of the l eaflets carried t he
message, "The Black Bitch I s Gone," on o ne
side, and d ifferent hate messages on the other.
It appeared to be n o coincidence that the
leaflets were distributed on the first of t wo days
t hat a p air of c onsultants f rom t he C SU
C hancellor's o ffice were on campus, a t S tacy'srequest, to sample racial attitudes in the wake
of last y ear's confrontation, and another incident in which a hate message specifically targeting a nother b lack w oman p rofessor w as
scrawled on a m en's room mirror.
The two CSU consultants, J une Cooper and
Maria Santos, spent the t wo days talking with
students, faculty and staff.
Cooper r efused t o discuss the leaflets other
than t o say, "It had an intentionally chilling e ffect In particular in an educational environment*
It's inappropriate. I refuse to involve myself with
that garbage."
Santos said the leaflets m ight impact the
investigation in the "context they were i n."
Campus Police Chief Arnold Trujillo said
security o fficers also questioned t wo m en in
The extent of racism at Cal State San
Marcos depends on w ho y ou're talking to.
To Professor Sharon Elise, a member of
the Black Faculty Organized (BFO) group and
the target of a racial threat scrawled on a bathroom wall last semester, racism at the university is institutionalized. The administration is
trying to play down the racial incidents, she
adds, and, by doing so, actually is sending the
message that such behavior is tolerable.
In the wake of the hate message last semester, Elise has asked for, and been granted,
leave f rom classroom duties this semester in
order to conduct research.
Kimberiy Kagy, chair of the Associated
Students Diversity Committee, believes the
administration has been reactive on racial issues, rather than pro-active. She questioned
why the diversity committee was not set up
before last semester, and added that blacks on
campus d on't see themselves represented in
university policy-setting.
President Bill Stacy, on the other hand,
points to the fact that the university 's faculty

Anonymous donation funds university's first athletic facility

A $200,000 pledge by an anonymous local businessman has allowed Cal State San

first athletic facility.
T he facility will b e state of the art and

is f ar more diverse than those at other California colleges. BFO is helpful, he said, but
some of the group's contentions are false.
Stacy also said he hopes the actions of
the B FO w on't alienate prospective minority
students and faculty.
A ccording t o A S P resident K ristina
Gundersen, white students and faculty who
don't see the grievances of the B FO and others being justified feel that they are being
persecuted.They don't see the racial problems
as signifigantly as does the BFO, she said.
One white woman student said she was
totally surprised by last semester's racial incidents. "I didn't see it, so it was hard to believe," she added. "At the time I felt it was
blown out of proportion." The fact that black
students seem t o know all about the racial incidents while white students didn't bothered
her, she said. "It made me feel guilty f or not
knowing the situation," she added.
Another white student, Anthony Howard,
said he doesn't understand what the black faculty expects the administration to do. CSUSM
is "ripe" f or such hate groups as the White
Aryan Resistance simply because the university emphasizes diverse themes, he added.
"This college puts diversity over education," h e said, adding that he resented the fact
that "diversity was forced" upon him through
global awareness requirements.

Building 15 grounds broken
'International Building' set to open in Fall '98
By Larry Uleman
Pride Staff Writer
Building 15's Jan. 31 groundbreaking ceremony
concluded with a bang — to remove granite.
The controlled blast shook an evacuated Academic Hall and Founder's Plaza around 4 p m, as students and faculty stayed clear to avoid flying debris.
There have been three additional blasts since,
each as more granite threatened to stall construction.
Building 15, called the International Building,
is scheduled to be completed by fall of 1998. It will
house computer labs f or foriegn languages, literature and writing, psychology, social sciences, and
business administration. It will also contain four high
end multimedia stations and 120 lab stations. The
building's nine classrooms will have network connection and will be able to receive video broadcasts. Three-hundred stations will be capable of
broadcasting as well as receiving.
The building, which will lie behind Academic
Hall, is designed with f our stories in its front portion and three in its elevated rear, which will lie up
a graded hill f rom the frontal section.
Funding was secured f or the building through
Proposition 203 — passed last spring by voters.
The proposition provided $ 14.5 million in construction funds, as well as $ 1.5 million to equip the building.
Building site excavation is scheduled to be
completed shortly, and may require more blasting
if more immovable rock is encountered. The buildings foundation will follow.
CSU One Card raises concerns
with system's student association
By Tina Leary
Pride Staff Writer
One all-purpose I D card that can be used on
and off campus may be coming to Cal State San
Marcos soon.
It's called the "One Card," and it has become a
hot topic of debate among students and faculty.
If approved at CSUSM, it could be used as a
student I D card, debit card, calling card and security access card on campus. Off campus, it could be
used as a credit card with participating companies,
and even in some vending machines.
It also could provide complete access to grades,
current GPA and other private and personal student
affairs.
Many college campuses already have implemented such a student I D card f or use in libraries
and media centers, in printers and photocopiers and
at student activities.
The cards have a magnetic stripe, similar to
those found on the back of CSUSM's current student I D card and the California driver's license.
Simply by running the card through a slot, a
police o fficer could obtain necessary information
about the student's driving or criminal history.
Similarly, with one swipe of the one card student ID card, the library and media center know when
you owe.
Some have expressed discomfort with having
so much information available on one plastic card.
Others find it a wonderful way to save space in
your wallet and valuable time.
The California State Student Association passed
a resolution on the C SU One Card, addressing concerns such as impact on local business and economy.
The card may not be accepted as a form of payment
at an independently owned supermarket or restau-
Trom p. 1
rack
f
tor. Materials and equipment will most likely be donated.
Fundraising efforts will be aided by Ash and
Juanita Hayes, who worked on fundraising campaigns f or the Republican National Convention,
rant, which could encourage students to frequent
other locations.
Another concern voiced by the C SSA states
"current Federal and State laws are inadequate to
ensure the security and privacy of students' confidential information and therefore puts at risk the
p rivacy and p ersonal a utonomy of i ndividuals
within our CSU community."
Although laws and policies protect a student's
privacy, concern focus on whether privacy can be
maintained with so m uch information accessible
through one source.

Mother-like
suggestions
on career
success
By Val Knox
Pride Staff Writer
O.k., y o' m ama I 'm not, but I probably could be.
A fter all, most mothers want nothing
less than health and happiness for their o ffspring. That and a well-paying j ob that will
lead you into your own apartment with your
own food and your own washing machine.
Now that I am fast approaching the
half century mark, I feel that I can o ffer
some sage advice to h elp you achieve the
goals I 've listed above. Mind you, these
are only suggestions I 'm sharing with you
because, like any mother, I want you to
succeed.
Now, have you decided on a career?
Let m e point out that careers tend to change
about seven times throughout a normal
person's life. Yes, in a normal person's life.
That means that one day, you too, may
be returning to college when you are older
and grayer, so in the meantime, please be .
nice fQ the blder student sitting next to you.
That brings u p the point: that the world is
really smaller than you think. College is a
great time to network, you know, get to
know as many people as you can. Participate in college and community activities.
One day it may help you land that perfect
j ob!
In deciding on a career, I strongly suggest that you consider volunteering; yes,
work f or free. G o ahead and ask, "Well,
what's in it f or m e?" L et's think about this.
Volunteering your time and skills in a
prospective career will gain you insight
about j ob expectations and what steps you
can take now to prepare f or career advancement. Learn about the company by talking
with employees. Ask questions about advancement opportunities and retirement
plans, because even you will one day look
forward to retirement.
Observe positions that men hold and
those held by women. Does this tell you
anything? D oes management solicit employee input or are programs authoritarian?
D oes the organization provide f or continuing education and training? How about layoffs? How often are salaries reviewed?
In addition, y ou'll b e building your
resume and earning some valuable experience. So, learn all you can about the place
you wish t o grace with your presence, but
b e selective.
Cal State San Marcos promotes service learning; that is, some type of community service is required to graduate. Service learning is an excellent way to learn
m ore about a career and an organization.
An added bonus is that y ou'll be getting in
touch with the community. Get involved
and work to m ake your community a better place.
Many organizations are encouraging
their employees to participate in volunteer
work. Volunteering - the cool thing to do.
Internet shareware site
finds 'Cool Tools' fastest
By David J ohnson
Pride S taff Writer
All too often, computer users purchase software that fails to live up to expectations.
Either it is the wrong tool for the
j ob or the program is so complicated and
overbearing that its main function is to
sit on your hard-drive and take up space.
In fact, the phrase "caveat emptor,"
or "let the buyer beware," should be embossed onto the spine of all those invitingly c olorful, yet s omehow benign
boxes wherein lie the C D and the 400page manual with annotations.
F ortunately, t here is a s olution.
Thanks to this trivial little fad called the
Internet, it is now possible to access vast
databases of loaner and even free software called "shareware" and "freeware,"
and download pretty much whatever it
is y ou're in the market for.
W hether y ou're an aspiring programmer looking f or a good HTML,
V RML, A ctiveX o r JAVA editor, or
y ou're j ust looking f or a cool game to
take your mind off frivolous activities
like homework, these databases o ffer a
b oundless s ea of p rograms t o w ade
through.
A nd, o nce y ou've caught something that looks useful and/or interesting you j ust reel it in and give it a try—
before you shell out the hundred bucks.
A s t hese d atabases grow larger,

Developing eating disorders is as easy as dieting
E very S pring semester, w e are r eminded that Spring Break and then Summer are around the corner. To many people,
this immediately leads to thoughts about
how w e'd better get in shape f or the beach.
The CAPS staff is aware that these are dangerous days, and potentially self-destructive, so we o ffer the following as advice
on how to develop an eating disorder, hoping that the opposite of this advice will be
followed.
The first and most important thing you
can d o if an eating disorder is your goal is
to go on a diet. We are not talking here
about simply being careful about what you
eat. By "diet" we mean a set of highly restrictive rules or constraints on what you
eat. T he more restrictive the better.
Some of you might choose rules that
have to d o with skipping meals: not eating

I mportant developments in
campus racist incident saga
TONY BARTON
It appears that our campus racists took no
more than a six-week winter vacation like the rest
of us.
T hey've been on a busy schedule since returning — defacing a mural and hitting 300 cars
with racist fliers, each detailing a separate ethnic
group. One was even tailored for so-called "Race
Traitors." You know, those of us "whites" who
associate with minorities.
A public hanging was promised for all such
"traitors." Blacks, according to the flier, simply
be will shot to death for dealing with whites.
A swastika and racist epithet were painted on
the hallway mural across the courtyard f rom the
library — specifically, on the face of a crying
black girl — by some attention-depraved idiot.
The defacement since has been painted over.
On Feb. 6 and 7, an audit of the c ampus's
racial climate, specifically the administration's
ability to deal with the racial unrest, was conducted
at the request of President Bill Stacy. June C oo
per, former vice chancellor of human resources
and operations f or the CSU system and Maria
Santos, a CSU human resources advisor, served
as the auditors.
The racist fliers, of course, were distributed
on the first of their two days on campus. Call it
convenient. The timing must have been planned,
of course, to further damage the university's reputation.
But did it? Or did it provide the administra:
tion with the perfect opportunity to show its intolerance f or racists.
Santos indicated the flier incident would affect the audit "in the context." Certainly the administration c an't be held responsible for racists
showing up in a campus parking lot. But it can
be for how it deals with such an event.
Let's take a look at the university's response.
Campus police responded immediately when
tipped to the distribution. O fficers captured one
of the distributors red-handed, and identified two
others, one a C SUSM student, as likely accomplices. The District Attorney ' s o ffice was called
immediately and press releases promptly sent out
across campus.
A f und that will donate to anti-racist and
educational organizations each time a racial incident occurs on campus was very conveniently
already in the works. It was announced the following day and appeared to most to be a direct
response to the fliers.
Perhaps it was impossible to sweep this one
under the rug, but the administration d idn't even
attempt to d o so. The circumstances were acknowledged, and dealt with. N o one has questioned either the speed or the sincerity of the
university's response.
By doing so, the university has bolstered its
image as being intolerant of race-hate crimes —
an image that was tarnished by critics last Semester.
The flier incident truly was important for that
very reason and for one other: It gave a face to
the anonymous racists — that of a 15-year-old,
White Aryan Resistance member f rom La Mesa.

could use for local calls only. In particular, they would
be handy when trying to contact one of the departments here on campus. The phones could be designed
for calls that have no extra chaige and therefore would
be of minimal cost to the campus. There can be a

T he 1970's are back. Bright colors are back in fashion, feel-good music is p opular a gain, and t here is a
D emocrat in the Oval O ffice. And the
d ecade's biggest movie, "Star Wars,"
is back in theatres in a remastered, enhanced f orm that utilizes t oday's technology and y esterday's f ilm f ootage,
" Star Wars: T he Special E dition."
"The Special E dition" is e ssentially the same movie, w ith about f our
m inutes of added f ootage created with
today's special effects innovations. The
Rebellion is still fighting against the
oppressive Galactic Empire, The Force
i s still with us, and M ark H ammil still

For those of you w ho h ave never

w hose biggest claim to f ame besides
the "Star Wars" movies is providing the

animated television series.
But d on't b e fooled into thinking
you h ave already seen "Star Wars" if
you watched it at home on the V CR,
or even if you saw it back in 1977. I t's
a m ovie that has a quality f ew movies
possess, in that it s o completely sweeps
its audience into the on-screen action
and m akes the audience feel like a part
of the movie. On the big screen this
element is even stronger, and George
Lucas proves that he can still create one
of the greatest movie theater adrenaline rushes ever.
T he new f ootage is a wonderful
addition to the Him. Scenes that were
intended to be in the original version
but were impossible due to budget and
technological restraints are now possible thanks to computer animated e ffects.

nothing more than a computer graphic,
and looks excellent. Other existing scenes,
once sparse, are now f ull of strange alien
creatures and exotic scenery. Scenes taking place in space have also been cleaned
up and lengthened.
"Star Wars" still stands as not only
the highest grossing m ovie of all time (it
should eclipse "E.T.'s" current record any
day now), b ut also as o ne of t he most influential. It changed m ovies i nto m ajor
events, extravaganzas of m edia attention
and publicity, and catapulted science f iction to a new level of e xcellence. This
might not have been f or the best, since it
i nadvertantly s pawned e ffects-driven,
plot-lacking m ovies like " Twister" and
"Independence D ay," t o n ame only t wo

but also t wo of the 1970's cimenatic
highlights, "The G odfather" and "The
Graduate."
T he "Star W ars" Trilogy is an
u ncomparable thrillride that no o ne

like it. The "Special Edition" enhancements are a f resh addition to an old
movie, and manage t o revitalize it f or

Shakespeare's plays have been continually
produced for more than 4 00 years.
S pending 2 50 m inutes w atching
"Hamlet" is not an ordeal; it's an Experience! Kenneth Branagh truly has succeeded
in bringing live theatre to the screen in an
unforgettable way.
Because "Hamlet" is a play that is open
to many interpretations, directors the world
over have spent a lot of time striving to
capture the true essence of the play. But
Branagh has achieved a rare triumph, producing nuances in the characters rarely seen
in other productions.
Branagh himself plays the brooding
prince of Denmark. Though, at 33, he may
seem a little old f or the part in the eyes of
some critics, Hamlet begs f or a certain maturity often lacking in younger actors.
The cast is. numerous and multi-national. Charlton Heston gives a solid performance as the Player King. Fans of Robsfri
Williams may be disappointed at the small
part of Osric, but Williams' performance
raises a giggle from the audience nevertheless.
B illy C rystal p ortrays o ne of t he
gravediggers and seems comfortable with
the language. Not so, Jack Lemmon, who
plays Marcellus, one of the witnesses to the
ghost of the dead King Hamlet. He does
not have many lines but he seems to forget
the first rule of reciting Shakespeare: You
may not understand the words but you have
to say them as though you d o understand!
Derek Jacobi brings a softer side to

C hristie) w ould m arry h im. C hristie's
make-up and sometimes drab costumes d o
little to flatter her, perhaps to show she is
trying too hard to look attractive. Hamlet
accuses her of "whorish behaviour."
The production design and costumes
are early Victorian with Blenheim Palace
lending a magnificent backdrop.
So, if y ou are a lover of good theatre,
this production is a must-see. It does not
do it credit to call it merely a "movie."
You cannot know bad theatre until you

The Rock is predictable and improbable, standard action
By Jenal Larson
Pride Staff Writer
Want an action movie sans the requisite car crashes and corpses? "The Rock"
may leave you stone-cold.
Directed by Michael Bay, the newlyreleased video stars Sean Connery, Nicolas
Cage, and Ed Harris.
Although certainly activity-laden, "The
Rock's" plot is both improbable and pre-
dictable. U.S. General Frank Hummel (Harris) is especially u nbelievable. H e is a
highly-decorated V ietnam Veteran w ho
wants restitution f or
families of Marines
killed during illegal,
i nternational, a nd
U.S.-ordered activities.
However, a respected, legendary war
hero with access to the media would hardly
hold 81 hostages on Alcatraz Island and
threaten to launch rockets filled with "human-meltdown" gas in order to achieve political aims.
E very a ction
movie needs an action
figure, of course, and

J ohn M ason. M ason l eads F BI a gents

Cage f ans will likely appreciate Dr.
Stanely Goodspeed, FBI chemical weapons
specialist assigned to diffuse the rockets.
Although the formulaic plot of "The Rock"
prevents any real sense of danger, Cage
seems fully aware of this fact. His quirky,
comedic performance is parodic and f un—
the highlight of the movie.
"The Rock" stands as a f un escape into
the standardized, semi-predictable action
movie world.

The film is divided into separate episodes, each directed individually, on N ew

"Honeymoon Suite;" Alexandre Rockwell,

Each is m ore bizarre and absurd than
the preceding episode. T he all-star cast, including M adonna, A ntonio B anderas,
Marisa Tome^and J ennifer Beales, appear
to be having a great deal of f un producing
outrageous and total chaos.
In "Room 309," Banderas, needing a
baby-sitter f or the evening, hires the Bellhop for $500 to check on his son and daughter every 30 minutes. T he children turn out
to be very imaginative in their misbehavior, which is fueled by the d aughter's morbid tenacity to drive the bellhop crazy.

Lobster joint
full of pleasant
surprises
By Suzanne Chitwood
Pride Staff Writer
For the mood, food, and happy hour
tunes, check out The Rockin' Baja Lobster in old California Restaurant Row,
San Marcos. I t's a place where the prices
are reasonable and the food is great.
The island cabanas and Jimmy Buffet decor are a nice touch to the laidback atmosphere. You can enjoy a nice
dinner without the overbearing need to
get dressed up. Starting with a hostess
who greets you with a smile steers you
to the salsa bar, through the server who
brings an endless supply of warm tortillas, Rockin B aja is full of pleasant surprises.
The restaurant is known f or serving dinners in a bucket, f ull of your
choice of any of the four of the following: lobster tails, lobster langostino,
grilled shrimp, carne asada, chicken,
crab legs or pork riblets. The meal also
includes a fresh, crisp caeser salad and
all the Spanish rice and refried beans
you can eat.
Prices on other entrees range f rom

lar.
If sitting still to watch the games is not
your thing, outside patio seating, foosball,
darts, video games and a j uke box to personalize your music choices provide you
with other options. Besides the televised
games, there are pool tables also, including
a Tuesday night Open Pool Tournament.
Sign up by 7:30 f or only $5.
But hey, the most important part - the
f ood! Low prices and h uge portions on
everything f rom their most popular bacon
cheeseburger to salads or quick appetizers.
Nothing costs more than $6.00!
Hoops is not your stereotypical hot and
sweaty sports bar where men are gruntin*
and holierin* f or their favorite teams while
the women socialize in the corner. Hoops
has something f or everyone.
Hoops is located at 1660 Capalina Rd.,
San M arcos. Call 471-7778. CSUSM students will receive 2 0 percent off purchases

Lavoritories are best at Planet Hollywood
By Gabe Lundeen
Entertainment Editor
W hat d o you get when you cross
Arnold Schwartzenegger, Bruce Willis,
Sylvester Stallone and f ood?
N o, not an e nclave of f rightened
cooks, but Planet Hollywood, the restaurant they hold stock in.
For those of you w ho d on't know,
Planet Hollywood is a restaurant franchise that has the distinction of being "the
only dining experience inspired by the
worlds of film and television." And it
combines entertainment and eating with
mixed results.
W alk i nto P lanet H ollywood at
Horton Plaza in San Diego and be prepared f or an assault on the senses. In
glass cases all around the restaurant are
various pieces of memorabilia, donated
by an array of movie and television stars
to be put on display. Some, like a piece
of the Death Star f rom "Star Wars" or
D on J ohnson's s hoes and p ants f rom
"Miami Vice," are sort of neat, but f or
the most part the items make you want
to yawn with excitement. A fter all, what
could be more exciting than eating next
to Macaulay Culkin's various blunt objects (a paint can, a wrench and bricks)
f rom " Home Alone?" And haven't we all
dreamed of seeing Sharon Stone's high
school yearbook? It's easy to tell why some
of this stuff was donated.
Inside the restaurant are multiple bigscreen televisions, showing plugs for Planet
Hollywood merchandise and a medley of
annoying celebrity shots and movie previews. Blaring at a decibel range not unlike that of a 747 j et at takeoff, it's a little
loud, to say the least. Only in America
would we invent restaurants with TVs, so
even when we go out to eat we can remain
glued to the boob tube. T he material shown
is self-serving, shameless, and not conducive to proper digestion.
The food, however, is quite tasty. The
menu boasts a selection of salads, sandwiches, burgers, pastas, f ajitas and grilled
platters, along with appetizers and desserts.
The Chicken Crunch is the appetizer
highlight. Believe it or not, i t's chicken
strips breaded in C ap'n Crunch cereal and
other seasonings, and it's different enough
to be distinctive jjet not sickening or overdone.
T he m ain m enu h as s ome u nique
items, along with restaurant mainstays like
hamburgers and pastas. Unconventional
p izzas such a s t he C reole P izza, with
shrimp and chicken, are the most original
items on the menu. But for the less adventurous, everything else should suffice. The
grilled sirloin is enough meat to feed any
hungry action hero, and the St. Louis Ribs
are also plentiful.
T he desserts are very good. From
ice cream to sorbet to various specialty
pies, there is something f or everyone
here, too. E ver wonder what Arnold
S chwartzenegger's m other m ade f or
dessert? Well, be curious n o longer, as
>his m other's apple strudel is featured.
And f or the afficionados of bad puns,
there's the Ebony and Ivory Brownie,
working together in a perfect harmony
that would make Paul McCartney and
Stevie Wonder proud.
Above all else, Planet Hollywood
has to o ffer is the bathroom. The lavatories are lush and beautiful, and f ull of
frills. A towel boy (in this case, a polite
y oung man named J unior) turns the
water for the sink on to a perfect lukewarm temperature, puts soap on your
hands f or you and hands you a paper
towel afterwards. He then offers you use
of various colognes and perfumes, gum,
mints, and toothpicks. He even offers
you an after-dinner cigarette! Any bathroom that will also give you lung-polluting carcinogens after your meal has
got to be high class. One could seriously

connection with the leaflets, one of them a
22-year-old student at the university. But,
because neither was seen actually distributing the fliers, both were released after a
phone consultation with the San Diego District Attorney's office.
University officials since have asked
that anyone who might have witnessed the
distribution step forward. If the university
can verify that others were involved, it would
be possible to bring them in for questioning.
But Stacy has conceded there is little
the university can do, even if it has evidence
that a student helped distribute the fliers.
Basically, he added, the student could only
be given a verbal warning for littering and
put on informal probation.
"We would be able to tell him his behavior is not conducive to a learning community, that's the first thing," Stacy said.
"The second is, 'You're a litterbug in the
parking lot.'"
Most students were dismayed by the
leaflets. Kimberly Kagy, chair of the AS diversity committee, called the incident "disgusting", but added that those responsible
were not indicitive of the general populus of

CSUSM.
Ironically, even before the leaflets were
distributed, a group of CSUSM employees
had set up a fund to counter racial incidents
on campus by making donations to anti-hate
groups and educational organizations every
time such a problem occurred.
The first donation — triggered by a
swastika and racial epithet being scrawled
across a mural in the hallway in front of the
library two weeks previously — was to the
Southern California Law Center, of Birmingham, Ala., the organization that in 1990 secured a $12.5 million civil judgment against
Metzger and the White Aryan Resistance
group after the beating death of an Ethiopian student in Portland, Ore.
The A S' Kagy called the fund a "great
idea" and "a step in the right direction."
Kagy's diversity committee, composed
of students, was set u p last semester at
CSUSM through AS to help deal with problems of race, gender, age and sexual diversity. So far, it has met with some of the deans,
published a news letter ("Pen/Sword") and
attempted to inform students of the need for
diversity on campus. "We have gotten our
voice heard," said Kagy.
Kagy also said a plan was in the works
to s etup acommunity hotline where students
and faculty could call to report racist activities or simply be given a sympathetic ear.

Student-oriented paper defines plans
With an infant university being born on the dawn o f another
century, we are entering a dynamic era of education and together we
must form new traditions and begin seeking horizons of our own.
Pioneer, a newspaper to serve the Cal State San Marcos campus,
also starts today. Premiering only one week after CSUSM opened to
its first students, Pioneer brings information to the hands of people
eager to learn more about California's 20th State university.
The pages o f Pioneer will contain a variety o f subjects. News,
however, is the main function o f the publication and will dominate
each issue.
I n the news pages, you will find all you need to know about the
coming of age o f CSUSM. Events will b e covered by students and
with students in mind.
O ur news specials will give you, the reader, insights into the future
of our university and into the surrounding communities.
The heart o f the newspaper lies in our opinion pages. I n this section
readers will find personal perspectives on events happening
throughout the world and staff points of view on issues affecting the
campus.
The opinion pages also give you an opportunity to a ir your valuable
perspectives. Guest editorials and letters are an integral part o f the

To add excitement and drama to the lives o f college studen ts,
Pioneer offers Explore. By exploring in-depth one particular them e,
Explore's intent is to show students that there is more to life th an

Getting to know Bill Stacy
Bill Stacy was selected in a

·Without m aking a ny r ecruiting efforts,

have to close applications. Sorry about that,
but we didn't want to tell a bunch o f people
'no.' We d idn't c lose i t q uickly enough

As w e looked for job applicants, one o f the

teaching. Most o f the. time that comes from

There is a sense o f wanting t o b e a c olearner, a co-discoverer a nd a co-teacher.
There is a sense o f o ur faculty wanting to b e .

" We s houldn't wait until the last

Amado said the Mediterranean

o f the campus was reviewed.
To reduce pedestrian circulation
time, buildings will b e condensed
into an easily accessible formation.
All buildings will have maximum
widths o f 5 0 feet and will rise a
minimum o f four stories, thereby
creating the feeling o f a condensed,
Italian-village.
"In trying to respect the terrain,
we get a Mediterranean sense. The
campus will resemble a crested
Italian hill town," said Amado.

New library checks out

T he largest building o n the completed Cal State San Marcos campus will
b e t he pennanent library. This 400,000 square-foot building will house
close to two million volumes.
According t o A lbert A mado, v ice president Physical Planning and
Campus Construction, the library will b e built in phases.
"The first phase o f t he pennanent library will house 250,000 volumes,"
said Amado.
Due to its large size and necessary campus function, the library will be
built at the most central location o n campus.
"We want i t t o p ortray a teaching function," Amado said, "so we 're
placing i t right a t the center o f c ampus."
T he library's card catalog will b e computerized and accessible through
h ome computer modems. Officials hope that technological advances will
allow users to access to the f ull t ext o f j ournal articles, art reproductions,
essays, bibliographies and music via home computers.
Planning for the main library will begin i n 1994 with completion
tentatively scheduled for 1998.
This a rtist's rendering shows what the campus will look like when opened in 1 992. Although t he
entire campus will not be completed until 2 010, t he Italian Style architecture will be seen with t he
f irst three permanent buildings to house Cal State San Marcos.

News videos encourage unfair verdicts
America has become a nation o f video jurists.
Through television, viewers have passed judgment on everyone
from Patty Hearst to John DeLorean. Videotape has given us a free
pass to the private lives o f public figures and officials, and all i n the
name o f news.
But we, as a nation o f voyeurs, seldom see the whole picture. O n
s uch sensationalistic programs as ' C urrent Affair' o r ' Inside
A
E dition' viewers only see tapes o f e vents that have been edited t o
maximize the drama o f events. Even, and especially, news broadcasts
use footage to draw viewers in and increase ratings.
Unfortunately, the viewing audience ultimately sees footage that
does not always correctly depict events a t hand.
I n the case o f R ob Lowe, for instance, America watched a tape that
allegedly depicted the actor having sex with a minor from Atlanta.
I t w as e asy t o pass immediate j udgment o n L owe d ue to the
explicit nature o f the tape alone.
B ut w hat most o f the American public does not realize, is that the
video, shown so liberally across the airwaves, d id n ot actually depict
Lowe and the Atlanta minor. What it really showed was Lowe with a
woman in Paris.
T he tape found its way to the media only after allegations about
Lowe and the m inor arose.
N onetheless; L owe was tried and convicted b y a n audience o f
millions with a tape that did not depict the event in question. Morally,
L owe's s exual exploits were repugnant, b ut t hey made for good
viewing.
O n J une 28, America had the opportunity o f passing judgment on
yet another public person; Washington, D.C. Mayor Marion Barry.
F or 10 minutes, viewers saw the official lift a pipe to his lips and
smoke crack cocaine.
W hat t he public d idn't see were the other 73 minutes o f videotape.
Only o ne station, Fox owned WTI'G, aired the complete tape.
As a result, viewers saw only a partial picture o f a man driven by
power and influence to perform vile illegal acts. The complete version
o f the tape depicted the tragic drama o f a man more obsessed with sex
than with drugs.
I n f act, B arry's c laim o f e ntrapment by the Federal Bureau o f
I nvestigation may n ot b e entirely invalid in light o f the entire tape.
During most o f the footage, Barry made countless sexual advances to

deserves a fair trial in
the viewers' court.
With sensationalistic videotape, comes sensationalistic hype. A s
s oon as news o f t he B arry tape was made public, a tremendous
uprising in the black community arose. Claims were b rought forth
stating that Barry was singled o ut for the investigation due to his color.
This ludicrous outcry probably would not have occurred h ad t he
tape not existed. B ut the pinnacle o f sensationalism created by video
journalism invites outside groups i nto t he vortex o f m edia h ype,
creating more confusion than clarity.
As a method o f information dissemination, television has always
had a bad reputation. T he practice o f heavily editing videotape for use
i n news broadcasts only adds to its poor standing.
T o complicate matters further, many news stations offer significant'
cash rewards for newsworthy videos. This practice invites would-be
treasure hunters, armed with the family cameras, to hunt for news.
F or t he most part, the general public has little o r n o formal training
in finding and accurately portraying newsworthy events. F raud i s
invited and actually encouraged, as in the case o f R ob Lowe.
I f news stations broadcast taped footage, they should investigate the
material f or accuracy. I f i t i s f ound that the footage i s i ndeed
newsworthy and useful, it should be aired only in its entirety, o r n ot a t
all.
T he p ractice o f e diting f or e ntertainment is dangerous to t he
reputations o f p eople and damaging To the integrity o f a legal system
which operates on the premise that all men are i nnocent until proven
guilty.
I h ave b een a sked b y t his newspaper
about goals a nd e xpectations I hav.e for this
new university and its students.
W hen I a m a sked to d o something like
this -- ''Think l ofty thoughts" -- the place I
t um t o i s C SUSM's M ission Statement. I f
y ou h ave n ot r ead o f o ur Mission, I would
urge you to d o so. You will find i t on page
seven o f o ur catalogue.
T he M ission Statement was the first, and
undoubtedly the most important, o f the many
tasks t he f ounding faculty and I faced in the
p ast y ear o f p lanning. We were planning not
j ust f or y our arrival a year down the road,
b ut f or t he s uccessive arrival o f students far
o ff i n t he f uture -- that unknown, shadowy
e vent w e c all t he 2 1st century. I asked the
f ounding f aculty t o h elp m e build. a
u niversity f or t he s tudents o f the 21st
century. T he M ission S tatement they put
together reflected their strongest feelings on
t he subject, a nd I think they did a grand job.
A s y ou r ead t hrough t he Mission
Statement, n otice t he e xpectations for our
s tudents a s w e have s pelled them out.
Because o f t he international perspecti ve we
h ave, w e w ill e xpose C SUSM students to
" the s tudy o f l anguages, to world literature
a nd the fine arts, a nd to issues and traditions
o f the United States and other countries." We
d efine f urther o ur e xpectations for our
graduates t o i nclude " basic skill in writing,
critical and relative thinking, mathematics,
fundamental c omputer c ompetence and an
i nterdisciplinary a pproach ( to these
expectations)."
O ur g oals for y ou a re s tated in the last
sentence o f t he M ission Statement: " ... to
e nable (you) to realize (your) potentialities
as enlightened individuals a nd productive
members o f society i n a world o f change."
Lofty goals. High-reaching goals. These
are the goals w e h ave declared for you. As
the capable, bright students w e know you to
b e, w e think these are goals worthy o f your
i ntelligence a nd p ersonal o r professional
purposes. B ut f or us t o succeed, you are the
o nes w ho m ust s ucceed. These goals must
become your goals as well. Universities may
h ave many "owners." Dean H enry Rosovsky
o f H arvard tells us i n h is remarkable book,
T he U niversity: A n O wner's Manual,
students are as m uch t he o wners o f their
university a s a re p residents o r faculty or the
c ommunity as a whole. T he ownersh ip o f
expectations a nd g oals b elongs to you as

I w elcome y our o wnership o f this

create positive things for o ur community, our

A THOUGHT:
"Mere opinions, in fact,
were as likely to govern
people's actions as hard
evidence, and were subject
to sudden reversal as hard
evidence could never be."
Kurt Vonnegut,
in 'Galapagos'
R onald Reagan stated a sarcastic truth a t
t he dedication o f t he n ew Richard Nixon
Library: " Much h as been written and said
a bout R ichard Nixon; s ome o f i t h as even
been true."
B ut f urther truth lies in the fact that the
c orrect a nd a dmirable aspects o f R ichard
Nixon a re t he very aspects that the media
appears hesitant to print. Positive ideas do not
make entertaining press.
Through media hyperbole, the history o f
N ixon's administration has b een c louded.
Instead o f r ealizing the vast achievements
that Nixon accomplished, many people today
are led to believe that only corruption and
mismanagement littered his administration.
While the press seems only to emphasize
the supposed "scandal" o f Watergate, Richard
N ixon a ccomplished m uch d uring h is
Presidency.
Possibly N ixon's m ost s ignificant a nd
talked about achievements lie in his decision
to open relations with the Soviet Union and
China.
H olding a r ecord a s a s trict a nticommunist, Nixon was able to commence
talks with the S oviet U nion which led to
START, the first real m ove t o p olice t he
nuclear race. Although this reduction treaty
was no band-aid for U.S.-Soviet relations, it
did create a course for increased cooperation
that carried us to the more relaxed position
we hold with the Soviet Union today.
Furthermore, Nixon recognized t he danger
o f l eaving t he S oviet U nion a s t he o nly
dominate force in Asia; therefore, he worked
to patch o ur r elations with C hina t hrough
actions that improved political and economic
relations between our countries.
R ichard N ixon b rought t he American
i nvolvement i n t he V ietnam War, which
killed 47,319 U.S. citizens, to a logical and
redeeming conclusion.
T RACY WILSON
G UEST C OLUMNIST
In addition, Nixon introduced people into
his administration such as Henry Kissinger,
William Safire, P atrick Buchanan, and Alan
Greenspan who sill act as important political
figures today, while another individual who
Nixon saved from oblivion and sent to the
United Nations is now our President.
While t he l iberal press would have u s
believe that civil rights advancements are the
p rize o f D emocrats a nd t he s corn_ o f
R epublicans, t he c onservative N ixon
c ontradicted their stereotype and worked to
further r ights i n t his area. According to
P atrick B uchanan, S pecial C onsultant t o
N ixon, m oney a llotted t o c ivil r ights
e nforcement rose 800 percent to $600 million
during his first term. Furthermore, he set a
record b y r aising federal e mployment o f
minorities from 14.1 percent to 19.5 p ercent
B ut possibly Nixon's greatest achievement
i s t he b rilliant way he e scapes p olitical
suicide, never allowing the media to c remate
o r bury the ashes o f his last public action.
Nixon's positive effects o n o ur c ountry
w ere n ot s evered b y Watergate. N ixon
resurrected from a political deathbed to again
involve himself in today's society. Recently,
he visited China, where he delivered a harsh
message in regard's to the TiannemanS quare
massacre. Unlike many past political leaders,
N ixon n ever d id a nd s till d oesn't a ccept
h onoraria for speeches and asked for n o fee
f or h is C hina v isit. F urthermore, h e
c ondemned any effort on the b ehalf o f t he
Chinese to exploit and televise his visit for t he
f ear that he might appear as i f h e condoned
the g overnment's behavior.
Today w e s ee figures like Barney Frank, a
c ongressman e vidently " unaware" o f t he
h omosexual whorehouse that operated from
his home, receive only a "reprimand" and a
s lap o n t he h and from a press w ho s eems
willing to forgive any impropriety o f a fellow
liberal. H e m ost likely faces re-election. I n t he
past, Nixon's unquestionably less severe acts
led to a cannibalistic feast on his political life
and Presidential honor. T he m edia h eld t he
banquet.
R ichard N ixon n ever c heated t he
government, never accepted unfair funds, a nd
w as n ever p roved t o h ave o rdered t he
Watergate burglary o r k nown o f it; N ixon's
o nly folly was a lack o f foresight which led t o
i naction, concealment, and t he r eluctance t o
a dmit a mistake at the crucial time i t occurred.
I n r etrospect, it is important to n ote t hat i f
N ixon h ad in a timely manner c ame t o t he
p ublic with the truth, he would have fmished
his term, leaving Watergate as a dead issue.
While the liberal press would say that this
very inaction can successfully overshadow all
the good o f the Nixon administration, history
will prove that it c annot
R egardless o f t heir e fforts, R ichard
N ixon's opponents have failed to reduce his
political actions i nto a p ile o f s moldering

OPPORTUNITY KNOCKS
Student government would open doors
T homas Jefferson once said, " If I c ould have a government without
the press, o r a press without the government, I would prefer the latter."
Currently, Cal State San Marcos is experiencing the latter form and
what has resulted is far from preferable.
Jefferson did not advocate a p ress without a government society.
What he did advocate was a society with both amenities.
T he p ress and the government are like Siamese twins, joined each
a t the f ist Whereas each appears to b e fighting with the other, both are
joined in the fight for the same cause . .. the betterment o f society.
Even a t the microcosmic level o f a u niversity (in comparison to
state and federal governments), government serves a vital function.
A student government would o pen d oors for clubs, activities,
student representation in Governing Board meetings and even for a
college-supported newspaper.

carried two trains o f nine connected
cars holding 18 passengers, the new
tracks will hold one train with six

" We wanted to see i f it would be

Cole. " It w ould cost far more to

have to become very skilled to run

Cole said that because the new
train has only six passenger cars, as

nine cars, the reduced wheel weight

JONATHAN YOUNG/PIONEER
Starlight Opera's presentation o f ' Jesus
Christ Superstar' could be considered the
second coming o f Andrew Llyod Webber.
As composer o f a dozen musicals, Webber
has gained recent success with his production
o f ' The Phantom o f the Opera,' released in
1988. He is also admired for ' Cats' (1980)
and 'Evita' (1978). But lately little attention
has been given to his first, complete work.
T hat d idn't stop director James Rocco
from directing Webber's 1970 score o f 'Jesus
Christ Superstar.' The performance, playing
through Sept. 9, proves that the biblical son
o f G od is alive today.
The story follows the last seven days o f
Jesus Christ. However, instead o f portraying
Jesus as a God, Webber casts him as a man
with the entire performance viewed through
the eyes o f Judas.
Bible critics might complain here, because
Judas is the one who betrays Jesus. So, even
though the story is pretty biblically accurate,·
Judas's story doesn't shed a bright light on
Jesus.
Jesus is portrayed by Amick Byram. He
truly becomes the superstar o f the show, not
only for his role, but'because o f his fantastic
performance. Byram comes to the Starlight
after his run with 'Les Miserables' a t the
Schubert 'Theatre in Los Angeles, where he
played the l ead His performance o f Jesus the
man was more than convincing, and his
performance o f J esus the superstar was
astonishing and heart-pounding.
T he m an who challenges his action
throughout the play is portrayed by Jessi
Corti. His role o f Judas is the first solo voice
to b e heard in the production with "Heaven
on their Minds" and he defmitely sets the
standards for the rest o f the show. He has a
wide vocal range as well as a diversity is h is
acting emotions and actions.
