Educated Bean, the coffee kiosk in
Founder's Plaza, has been forced to stop
selling espresso because Starbucks is
coming to the new library.
Starbucks, the international coffee
chain, has negotiated a contract with
CSUSM to setup in the ground floor of
the new Kellogg Library, due to open
next semester, to sell espresso exclusively. It was also agreed that Starbucks
would have the espresso market to itself.
"I was a little apprehensive to continue
selling espresso," said Steve Mcintosh,
the primary owner of the Educated Bean.
Ever since the Starbucks opened up in
the shopping center across the way, he
had noticed a significant drop in espresso
sales at his own booth.
Because Starbucks will be moving on
campus, Mcintosh is happy to let the
espresso line go, as the profit level from
those sales was becoming smaller and
smaller. There are other benefits too, like
reduced labor costs, since there had to be
a minimum of two people in the booth
when they were selling espresso in the
past.
According to Mcintosh, while the
Educated Bean will no longer be selling
espresso, it has been allowed to expand
its line of wares. It will be selling a
number of things that Starbucks will
not be selling, such as an expanding line
of cookies, chips, and a variety of fruit
smoothies. They will continue to sell fair
trade coffees, along with their chi latte's
and chocolate drinks. With this vastly
extended line of products comes a new
multi-year contract and rates that have
actually been lowered.
Starbucks PR executive Nick Davis
said, "Starbucks builds alliances with
companies and organizations, such as
California State University, San Marcos,
that understand the value of Starbucks
and are able to successfully deliver-the
Starbucks experience to our customers.
Starbucks does not provide information
on the terms of its agreements, but we are
very excited to be working with CSUSM
to bring Starbucks store to the campus
community."
Biochemistry junior, Evan Delatorre
said, "Starbucks will cost more. Students
don't have that much money."
Literature and. Writing professor Dr.
Susan Fellows said, "I think they should
be able to sell espresso. I find it absurd
that there are not enough students to buy
espresso from both places."
Mcintosh also wanted to express his
gratitude to the Foundation for their
generosity.
"I want people to know this was a
good thing," Mcintosh said. "I think this
is going to be a win-win situation. We've
greatly appreciated the support we've
received (from students and faculty) and
hope it continues after Starbucks opens."

Poullard added, "It
is probable that this

Greg Lukianoff of
the Foundation for

"Free speech zones
should be the rule, not

university should have
the courage to treat the

that it is morally wrong
not to foster free speech

"Moore offers a different perspective that is not offered in the
mainstream media," Roper said.
Moore's latest book that came out earlier this month titled, "Dude,
Where's My Country?" already has a record breaking amount of
orders nationwide, and within its first printing are one million
copies. The book was written not only to reveal the truths about the
Bush administration, but to also unseat President Bush, or "George
of Arabia" according to Moore's book, indefinitely.
In the book Moore speaks out against the war on Iraq, how Bush
got elected, and his administration's policy in general.
According to Roper, "He is leading by e xample... Having Michael
Moore on campus will empower the students to think differently. It
teaches people to question."
Growth

By T M JOHNSON

Over the past few years CSUSM has experienced
an exuberant amount of growth. A growing campus
means more applicants hoping to be accepted for f uture
semesters. Classrooms will inevitably increase in size
and registering will require a fight. Fortunately, this
increase will not take place for a while.
"Next year there will be no growth. During the

to climb.

�Top four cell phone companies in America rank their phones

There are many new features cell phones currently offer: internet capabilities, two-way
messaging, voice recording, and cameras, just to name a few.
It is good to have options, however when there are too many, options turn into
headaches.
Verizon
"There are now more than 145 million subscribers who spend on average $47 a month
on local service. A small, but steadily growing number of people use a cell phone as
their only phone." Consumer Reports Magazine 2003, page 143.
In lieu of the growing number of cell phone options and users, it is good to have a guide
that will direct one's decisions in upgrading or purchasing a new phone. In the table

The h istory of Halloween
ByMARKPERRERA
Pride StaffWriter
America as a diverse nation
embraces people of all cultures,
customs and traditions. So what
does Halloween mean to us, and
how do we celebrate it?
The word Halloween has its
origin in the Catholic Church. It
originated from "All Hollows Day"
(or "All Saints Day") November 1,
which is a Catholic day of observance to honor the saints.
During the fifth century in
Celtic Ireland, Oct. 31 was the offi
cial day that summer ended. This
holiday was known as Sam Hain
(sow-en) -— the Celtic new year.
On this day the spirits of all
those who had died throughout the
year come back in search of living
bodies to possess for the next year.
The Celtics believed that during
this time, the laws of space an
time were suspended allowing the
spirit world to intermingle with the
living.
The living didn't want to be possessed therefore they extinguished
the fires in their homes on the night
of Oct. 31, making their home
undesirable. They then dressed up
in all sorts of ghoulish costumes
parading around their neighborhood making noise and being as
destructive as possible, attempting
to frighten away spirits.
Irish immigrants fleeing the
Irish potato famine brought the
Halloween custom to America
around 1840.

Beware ghosts and goblins,
if s a scarry night
By LISA GEORGE
Pride Features Editor and
CHIEF TOM SCHULTHEIS
CSUSM Chief of Police
As the time for ghouls, ghosts, clowns
and monsters comes, your campus
community wants you to be safe and happy.
Here are some words of wisdom from CSU
San Marcos University Police Department
for you and your children to have a safe
Halloween. Please use common sense. To
help you we have some safety tips.
Costume Safety:
• Use make-up or face paint instead of
masks. If masks are used, make sure
that they fit properly and have holes
large enough for mouth and eyes.
• Choose costumes that are marked
flame retardant.
• Wear light-colored clothing at night.
Add reflective tape or reflectors to dark
colored costumes.
• Make props such as magic wands and
swords out of cardboard, rather than
metal or wood.
• Be sure your costume is not too long to
avoid tripping over it.
• Carry a Flash Light.
Before Trick-or-Treating:
• Obtain flashlights with fresh batteries
for all children and their escorts.
• Plan to use only battery powered
lanterns or chemical light-sticks in
place of candles in decorations and
costumes.
• Review with your children the
principle of "Stop-Drop-Roll", should
their clothes catch on fire.
• Openly discuss appropriate and
inappropriate behavior at Halloween
time.
• Do not permit children to bicycle,
roller-blade or skateboard.
• Agree on a specific time when revelers
must return home.
• Take extra effort to eliminate tripping
hazards on your porch and walkway.

I Wanna Ashtanga:
Yoga classes at CSUSM offer students a rejuvinating escape
BY MELISSA RODRIGUEZ
Pride StaffWriter
"Like Darth Vader . .. I want
to hear deep, soulful, victorious
breaths," said Christina Allen
as she coached the breathing
techniques to a group of young
women during an Ashtanga yoga
class at the Clarke Field House.
The group dwindled to a lean
15 students from the original 42
who began the free ASI Leisure/
Group Fitness class Sept. 29 for
the fall semester.
The remaining students, showing their resolve, have improved
dramatically from the awkward
giggly bunch they once were.
Poses that previously seemed
nearly impossible are now performed with ease and transitions
that were absolutely impossible are now being attempted and
sometimes actually achieved by
the students.
"I think (the class) is really
progressing; everyone is really
there and really present," Allen
said. She has her own studio in
San Marcos called Ashtanga
Yoga East.
Ashtanga yoga is one of the
most active and physically
Ashtanga students stretch their muscles while their instructor, Sri K. Pattabhi Jois, watches.
demanding forms of yoga. The
aim of this practice is to generate
heat in the body for the purpose
of burning toxins, burning calories and becoming stronger and
moreflexible.This is achieved by
transitioning quickly from pose to
pose in fluid motions.
Practitioners also learn how to
channel their energy and lower
their stress levels by quieting
their minds, breathing deeply and
looking inward.
"I think (yoga) is very relaxing
and it helps to get circulation to
all those areas we ignore. It is
a total time-out," said Michelle
Jules, a third year communications major.
"It helps me stretch out and it is
very relaxing," said junior HuangMei Chiang.
One of the obstacles the students have faced is letting go
of image concerns and allowing
themselves to really immerse in
the practice without worrying
about what others may think.
Poses can be tricky and often
embarrassing and egos can stand
in the way of progress.
"Your ego exists to ensure
that you protect yourself and
it is important, but it is only a
small part of who you are. You
shouldn't tell yourself you can't
do something without trying it
first. Do what you can and next
time it will be easier," says Allen.
* Allen's advice seems to be
working.
There were only a few quiet
chuckles before everyone tried a
new pose they were asked to perform called the "Lion's Roar." In
this pose, while down on all fours
facing each other, students stuck
out their tongues like Maori warriors and let out their breath in the
form of a quiet roar.
It may seem a little silly, but the
students were willing to try the
pose and not let it be an embarrassment.
This Ashtanga yoga class provides students a time to get in
shape while at the same time they
can let go of the stresses in their
lives. It is a positive experience
for both the students and their
instructor.
Allen is enjoying teaching the
class. She said, "I like it, its fun,
its turning people on to something
that maybe they have never tried
before, it's like planting seeds."

This week I have received some very good feedback from
readers who voice legitimate concerns about "The Pride."
The crux of these concerns is based on a problem that I
have noticed as well when reading through "The Pride"
which is, namely, typos. The general perception that I get
from the readers' complaints is that these errors tend t >
<
disinterest the reader. I agree with that reasoning. I recall
reading "The Pride" before I was writing for it and having
that same sense of disinterest because of simple spelling errors or incorrect attributions. Now, I come from a
perspective to where I am more disappointed when these
errors occur and focused onfindinga resolution to reduce
the amount of errors that get into thefinalprint,
hi particular, I received one email that really echoed the
frustration that some readers have towards these mistakes.
CSUSM student, Ryan Beraal, emailed me about a correction for Vol. XI No. 5. It was in the article "Tips for those
living single: Student Survey" where Ryan found an error
regarding the reference to David Beckham. Our writer referenced Beckham as "David Beckingham:" an error that
should have never made it to the press. Ryan suggested
and asked me if I agreed that when one of our writers
reference "one of the most hailed football players.. .they
should at least get the spelling of the name right"
I would have to say I agree with Ryan on this one. Beckham is a popular football player and known by football
fans all over the world. In addition, Beckham is referenced in the recent movie, "Bend it Like Beckham/'
Couple these reasons with the fact that this misspelling
was overlooked in editing and I can understand the frustration that was shared with me this week. This type of
sloppiness could discourage readersfromreading "The
Pride" who then could dissuadefriendsfromreading "The
Pride" and suddenly, "The Pride" has lost its credibility.
From this, I will include this correction at the end of this
column. Moreover, I appreciate the critical feedback this
week from all who emailed me. And once again, my email
address is dolan005@csusm.edu. Please keep theflowsof
criticisms coming.
Correctioiis
Vol. XI No. 5
In the article "Tips for living single: Student Survey,"
David Beckham's name is misspelled David Beckingham.
The Pride apologizes for this misspelling and any inconvenience that it might have caused.
Vol. XI No. 6
In the article "Urban Bush Woman: Hair Stories to be Performed at CSUSM," the title should have read Women,
not Woman. Also, in this article, Women should have
been capitalized in thefirstsentence of the article. And
finally, Michelle Wills who wrote this article wanted to
thank Kristine Diekman and Karen Schaffinan for their
help. Karen Schaffinan is also the contact for those who
want to attend this event. Her email address is karenschaff
man@csusm.edu.
HALLOWEEN CONSUMER
By MICHAEL DOLAN
Pr^StaffWriter
I was walking up the steps*roNfStorenamed* Bate's Bros.
Nut Farm when the comment came bellowing from behind
me. "This is a perfect place for a picture." It echoed through
my mind as I turned to see an oveijoyed mother dragging her
reluctant son to a corner in front of the store arranged with
pumpkins and bales of hay to represent a perfect manifestation of a Hallmark Halloween. This was supposed to be
the yearly outing to Bate's Nut Farm to collect traditional
autumn ornamentation: and take in the crisp andfreshValley
Center air, but this year was something askew. Yes, this year
the rising trend of residential and commercial development
has caught up with the simple quest of pumpkin hunting and
turned what for the past 25 years had been something enjoyable into a miserable melodrama. This is the new reality of a
North County Halloween.
I should have known there
^
would be trouble on this trip
beginning with the car ride up
the gradefromEscondido. East
Valley Parkway was consumed
with chaos with traffic backed
up in both directions up to
Lake Wohlford Road. Similarly, the west bound lanes of
Valley Center Road, the grade
that leads into the hills, were
backed up for over half the
distance of the grade. The right
turn on to Woods Valley Road
provided no relief to those who
were on their way away from
the Farm with a back up of
over two miles, a substantial
distance on two lane country
black top.
Approaching the Farm, I
was confronted with what at
first appeared to be the makings of a carnival. There were
incomprehensible amounts of people wandering through
fields stacked with recently imported pumpkins just steps
away from tents of vendors and a simulated mountain for the
purpose of practicing mountain climbing, should that need
ever occur.
In the parking lot* a field with delineations haphazardly
made with bales of hay and orange cones, there were advertisements for the "Smoke Out" tour coming to town soon. My
sense of nostalgia was rapidly diminishing as I walked out of
the parking lot and into the pumpkinfields.There was trouble
in trying to locate a wheelbarrow to carry the pumpkins. At
$3.50 a piece, the motivation to walk around with pumpkins
in your arms quickly evaporates. This scene was getting uglier
and uglier as men and boys stalked the checkout area waiting
for a wheelbarrow to be returned. When there was á wheelbarrow returned, the collected predators sprinted with furious
determination to claim their prey, leaving one man excited
and many a boy and man bitter and crying.
The pumpkins themselves were nothing to be thrilled about.
A few years back, Bate's stopped growing their own pumpkins and began importing them from Mexico. This act could
be considered thefirstflood of water that began the erosion of
the Bate's mystique. Instead of going out to afieldand cutting
your pumpkin right from a vine and quickly paying without
much trouble, one is now left to select theirjpumpkin from
a several piles of pumpkins dumped in field with a hundred
other people scrounging for the elusive perfect pumpkin. In
addition, after the hunt, I found myself passing through a chaotic tent to pay for my selections only to be harassed on the
other side by high school student employees with questions as
to whether or not I have paid for my pumpkins.
All these events lead back up to the front door at the store.
After buying a $1 can of soda and a $2 ice cream cone from
conveniently placed vendors, I stood dazed staring at the
circus I had just experienced. It has never been
like this here at Bate's. One
employee I asked about
the madness said that this
bedlam was relatively
calmer than the previous
weekend when the crafts
fair was going on.
In the long run, Valley
Center is changing with
an increase in residential
development despite the
best efforts of the long time
residents. For that matter,
all of San Diego County
is booming significantly
and apparently all these
newcomers want a taste of
a country fall at Bate's Nut
Farm. The unfortunate consequence is the roadways
are not suited for the increase in traffic volume in this general
area making this trek frustrating at best. Furthermore, the
once reserved tradition for local residents to escape to Bate's
once or twice a year is forever gone clouded in the chaos of
what has now become a stressed filled novelty rather than a
chance to envision nostalgia.

�D emonlover
By KRISTIN REES
Pride Staff Writer
The Landmark Theatre buzzed after the
sneak preview of the new and artsy film,
"Demonlover."
Director Olivier Assayas' stunningly
done "Demonlover" can be grouped into
the category "high tech thriller."
I thought that with Halloween
approaching this film would have been
some gory horror flick, but what I found
Connie Neilson stands before a flame in the provocative Palm Pictures thriller.
was a sadistic, ugly, fast paced, insane yet
amazing piece of filmmaking.
Demonlover will leave a funny taste
in your mouth and I bet you will like it.
The only problem with this film is that
it may be hard to follow if you are not
somewhat Internet or technology savvy.
The storyline basically follows a corporate
executive who discovers an interactive
torture Internet site called "The Hellfire
Club." Slowly the film uncovers more
horrors about the modern movie life than
any of us have ever wanted to know.
With its almost uncomfortable use of sex
and fantasy in some very common states
of affairs, "Demonlover" reminds me of a
lengthy music video. It depicts the corrupt
side of an industry that is often assumed to
be glamorous.
If you're a film buff at all, this film is
definitely for you. It is breathtakingly
shot and that is reason alone to see it
— definitely worth the seven dollars.
Elevated :
more than just a band
By DIANAK. CABUTO
Pride StaffWriter
Semi-acoustic
sounds,
incorporated hip-hop, rap,
spoken word, and rock
vocals accompanied by live
guitars and other assorted
percussion
instruments
come together in fusion
to form the unique and all
CSUSM students band of
Elevated.
If you have be ve heard
this band play their unique
sound. The sound that calls
for a new genre of music
that anyone can en to the
Fyre Zone Cyber Cafe on
San Marcos Boulevard,
Bubble Tea or Panorama
Center, maybe you ha enjoy
regardless of his or her own
personal style.
Elevated originates from
the idea of poetry and
music coming together for a
different way of expression
and fusion between spoken
word, hip-hop and rock.
Elevated offers its listeners
an interesting and original
blend of musical genres.
Elevated is becoming an
essential part of almost any
event at CSUSM and some
of the local places in San
Marcos.
Elevated is a group of
enthusiastic and hard working musicians. "Our big
goals are to sell our own
CD's, stickers, T-shirts, and
to have more people come to
our shows and express their
talents with us as well," said
percussionist and performer
Nimitz Bagtas. The band is
finishing its first demo —
the first step for the band's
dream. "Big plans are to
finish our demo so we can
give it to clubs and places
for more gigs, play bigger
shows and open up for other
groups," Nimitz said.
The band consists of
seven
core
members:
Lyricist Phillip Jerge; poet
Anthony Blacksher; percussionist and poet Richard Hunt; poet Lameeka
Ingrham; guitarists Ian
Skolnik and Robert Smith;
and percussionist Nimitz
Bagtas. The band began
as a duo with Jerge and
Balcksher, but other members joined to form the new
heterogeneous band they
named Elevated.
Some of the band's
original works include
various poetry: "Elevated,*"
"Be here Now" and "Life
Alone."
A current CSUSM student, Nadia Lopez, said,
"Elevated is a new concept
in music and poetry. I like
it a lot and I think it will
grow- and leave an impor-
Anthony B lacksher w oos the crowd with v ocals a t the Fyre Z one

where it originated, and we
should be proud of it."
The band played for the
first time in the campus
dorms Thursday, Oct. 2,
were CSUSM students like
Lopez enjoyed listening.
For those who missed
the event, the band will be

CSUSM contained the attack on
campus computers by noon the same
day.
ILOVEYOU was the subject line
on e-mails containing an attachment
that opened what some reports mistakenly called a "virus". According
to the Symantec Antivirus Research
Center viruses and worms differ in
how they spread. Symantec is the
provider of Norton Anti Virus software.
Worms are designed to propagate cyber violence throughout a network with little or no help from
humans (i.e. grabbing addresses and
mailing itself). Alternatively, a virus
is designed to hide out and allow
itself to be sent to a recipient where it
can wreck havoc on a machine. The
ILOVEYOU attachment contained a

In a memorandum to the Cal State
San Marcos Campus Community
dated May 3,2000 and released following the Academic Senate meeting,
CSUSM's President Dr. Alexander
Gonzalez notes that "[o]n Monday,
May 1, Dr. Richard Karas resigned
his position as Vice President for

"It's impressive code.. Clean...

who work in Computing and Telecommunications Network Operations of the four short pages ofVisual
Basic code thatfloodedinboxes and
sent items folders with thousands of
infected messages on campus and
around the world. The worm created what an Information Technology Consultant in HelpDesk Support,
Carlos Arciniega, called a "panic"
among campus computer users.
When David Medeiros, Operating Systems Analyst for the campus
Computing and Telecommunications
department opened his e-mail at
about 7:15am to more than 50 expressions of affection, he realized he was
either more popular than he ever
imagined or that a cyber attack had
been unleashed on the campus e-mail
system. "I opened the first arjd saw
that the file extension on the attachment was .vbs," Medeiros stated.
Knowing that most attachments are
more common file types like .txt,
.doc, or .jpg, Medeiros went to look
for the latest updates for the Virus
Scan program that catches and cleans
Infected files.
Medeiros said that they employed
a 3-tiered defense, "Stop it, contain
it, and fix it." Medeiros said that
CSUSM faired better than many
other organizations in the face of
the worm because Computing and
Telecommunications were prepared
to react to the threat quickly. "When
something like this happens, it's a
big team effort," Medeiros said in
praise of his coworkers.
Computing shut down the
campus e-mail servers almost immediately to quarantine the worm and
began the process of cleaning the
attachments for the campus e-mail
servers. The virus scanning software

Drilling for

Brian Fisher
PRIDE STAFF WRITER
In anticipation of the new
library, a crew drilled approximately twenty holes j ust west
of University Hall on Tuesday,
May 2. These "drill s ites" range
in depth f rom three to f orty f eet,
and o ften require more than one
hour of drilling time per site.
"Its all pretty straight forward, we are drilling to find the
depth of the granite layer underneath the compacted e arth,"
stated Paul Dunster, Project
Geologist of Geocon, who
headed the p roject. Paul also
states, "The granite layer will
serve as a foundation for the
new library."
Due to previous blasting and
grading, some of the granite
was found in large fragments.
The fragments are not capable
of supporting heavy structures
such as the library. Granite
stability was the m ajor problem Geocon "drilled i nto" while
determining the granite depth.
"Sometimes i t's d ifficult to tell
if the granite is s table," stated
Dunster.
Dunster said that he o ften
had to get into "the cage" and
was lowered down into holes to
determine granite stability.
The drill itself is attached to
a large s haft capable of extending one hundred feet into the
ground. Depth measurements
are relayed f rom a sensor in the
s haft to a computer in the tractor operation panel. The steel

The Greek Minority Issue at

On Friday, April 21, 2000,

issues and make inquiries about
forming a Latina Greek Sorority at CSUSM, a fter two opinion articles were printed in The

Trying to establish a Greek
sorority on campus is a continual process that takes f rom one
to three years, Dr. Francine M.
Martinez, Vice President of Student A ffairs, explained at the
meeting. "The group can start
as a club; however, it does not
mean the club will be a recognized Greek organization," said
Dr. Martinez. She outlined the
process of establishing a Greek
sorority f rom a club. The recognized club organization moves
to a provisional status, and
finally becomes an o fficially

according to The Vaults of
Erowid, an online drug information source. One major problem
of MDMA is that users may start
having intense memories f rom
the past that they are not able to
deal with psychologically.
MDMA takes anywhere f rom
30 minutes to two hours b efore
it begins to work. When it does
begin to work, the user reaches
the peak e ffect in only a few
minutes and the user may start
to f eel out of control until the
plateau. The e ffects of the drug
last f rom three to six hours.
Unfavorable side e ffects that
may occur include, dehydration
( from dancing f or long hours
and not drinking enough water),
nausea, vomiting, j aw clenching, eye twitching, and dizziness. It is also possible for the
user to have an altered state in
their mood for up to two weeks
a fter taking MDMA.
MDMA is in such high
demand at Rave parties that the
MDMA may produce "strong supply w on't last through the

According to N BC's Dateline, MDMA is the most popular
drug at Raves. However, there
are several other drugs that are
being used increasingly in the
club scene. Examples include
GHB, Rohypnol, Ketamine, and
LSD. All of these drugs are even
more dangerous when combined
with alcohol use.
Raves are usually held on the
weekends in San Diego County
and most commonly will feature
" techno" music with plenty of

B erry's Theatre Arts class (TA
300) will perform in a play of
their own creation. Tentatively
titled "Decisions, D ecisions,"the theatre experience will take
place in the CSUSM Visual and
Performing Arts Annex on Tuesday, May 16, 2000.
The crew and 11-member
cast are made up entirely of
CSUSM students* many of
whom have never b efore been
involved with a theatre production. Some actors a re nervously
calling the production " Off-off
Broadway... Way-off Broadway."
" It's not about the production, "said Professor Berry, " it's
about the m aterial."
The play f ollows San Diego
television reporter, Mike Anderson as he p ieces together the
events s urrounding a fictitious
Proposition 33, a proposition
that bans same-sex marriages in
C alifornia. Mike uncovers startling evidence on election night
about the p roposition's author, a
never-seen Senator Bob Daye.
Students researched topics
relevant to C alifornia society,
and then write and produce a
play based on the research
results. The p erformances are
the culmination of the semesterlong assignment f or the class.
The general public is
invited, but the production does
entail adult language and content. Admission is f ree and seating will be on a first-come,
first-served b asis. Those wishing to attend should plan to
arrive at the VPAA on La Moree
Road at 7 :30pm.

All supported child development and the
CSU San Marcos ASI Early Learning Center
by giving incentives for people to attend these
educational workshops.
It's not too late to win one of these exciting door prizes! We still have one more workshop this semester - Thursday, May 11, 2000
at 7:15pm, with Ruthie Hewitt - "Math and
Science Can Be Fun". Join us, learn and win!
Also, after talking with many, it has been
decided that scheduling the trainings for the
afternoon rather than evenings is best. Therefore, the workshops next semester will be
once a month, on a weekday afternoon, for
your convenience.
Keep in mind that Ellen Flanagan will
visit next semester and talk about "Sensitivity
to Child Rearing Values": The date is not yet
decided, so watch for announcements in the
Pride Calendar of Events and campus posting.
Again, thank you to all that have supported and attended the ASI Early Learning
Center trainings. Together we're making our
community a more knowledgeable place about
our developing children! Hope to see you in
May!

Violence Against Women Act Needs Five More Years
Darcy Walker
Cesar Chavez Day
Victor Mireles
In 1994, Congress passed the Violence Against Women Act (VAWA), a landmark piece
of legislation that works at the federal, state and community levels to protect women and
childrenfromdomestic violence and sexual assault. Funding provided under this law allowed
five years of federal support for programs such as the National Domestic Violence Hotline,
which receives more than 8,000 calls per month. Shelters for battered women and rape crisis
centers are among the many services made possible by this legislation.
I attended the Cesar Chavez and Cinco de Mayo event put on by the CSUSM MEChA
club. The event took place at the bottom of the stairs that lead up to the free speech area,
and had the support of ASI and the University. Both the ASI and university presidents spoke
briefly on the importance of having diversity on campus. Yet, after they left, the event showed
its true colors and became a hybrid political and cultural rally.
With training also granted by the VAWA, police, judges and court personnel are learning
how best to respond to the unique dynamics of domestic and sexually violent crimes. Countless lives have been improved and saved by the programs supported by this legislation. But
five years is not enough time to end violence against women, and lives are at risk daily. We
cannot afford to close down shelters and hotlines.
Thefirstspeaker talked about the suffering that Chicanos have faced for centuries. He said
that the defacement of the Che Guevara banner last year was a hate crime because "he was a
greatfigurein the struggle forfreedom."The speaker also made a thinly disguised accusation
of racism saying that the people complaining about the volume of the music might be doing
so because, "they don't like Chicanos expressing themselves." He finally said that his views
spoke for all Hispanics. I quickly left the event and wondered what this all meant.
Congress is considering a bill to extend funding for the Violence Against Women Act for
anotherfiveyears. Since its introduction last year, 171 members of the House have cosponsored H.R. 1248, the Violence Against Women Reauthorization Bill. Locally, Representative
Brian Bilbray of the 49th district has shown his support by signing on as a cosponsor in
October of last year. However, Reps. Randy Cunningham (51st district) and Ron Packard of
the 48th district have yet to make this important commitment. As residents of North County,
we rely on these men to speak for us in Congress. Call on them to stand up for women,
children, and families. Ask your representative to sponsor and support HR 1248.

or otherwise, can be found on the Internet at http://thomas.loc.gov
The sad reality is that MEChA and other groups that proclaim themselves to be victims are
worthless organizations. I am a Mexican-American but I am also one who knows that living
in the past isfruitless.MEChA claims to support and speak for Chicano views, but I am one
Mexican-American who would like to say that they don't speak for me. My family has been
living in the United States for over a century. My ancestors came to the U.S. legally around
the 1890s and have been productive members of the nation since.
My late grandfather fought in the Second World War. We have always regarded ourselves
as loyal and proud Americans. Although I respect where I came from I am American first.
Mexico happens to be the place where my ethnic group came from. MEChA and other organizations that dwell on past injustices from the U.S. and Europe are doomed because they
cannot see that those who move on do succeed/It is easy to complain, but have you done
anything tangible to improve the lives of Mexican-Americans?
MEChA would be well advised to celebrate Cesar Chayez but not to praise people like
Che Guevara. How can a group that wants justice support a man who helped turn Cuba into
a repressive, terrorist-sponsoring state? I probably will be called a Twinkie because I do not
support MEChA, and I accept that. It will only show how intolerant and shallow they truly
are. I hope that when the next Cesar Chavez day rolls around we make it a truly diverse event
with dances of all races and ethnic groups and keep the politics out. I think Cesar would have
wanted it that way.
