co-sponsor American
Heart Association's
HeartRide '94
Scott Tinley, former ironman triathalon

1984 U.S. Olympic cycling coach, have been
named the Honorary Chairmen for the American Heart Association's inaugural cycling
event HeartRide '94. HeartRide'94 isslated

The Pepsi Corporation and Eddie B's Cycling World and Fitness Camps.
This non-competitive, just-for-fun event

Tinley. "Every 34 seconds, someone dies
from this devastating killer. Heart disease
affects people of all ages. There are only two
ways to fight it: find a cure through research
or prevent them in the first place. Prevention
is the key. Exercise plays an important role
in preventing heart disease."
HeartRide is designed for all levels of
cyclists and will include four different routes.
For families and beginningriders,there will
bea5and lOmile loop around the University.
For the more experienced rider, HeartRide

Looking for a job can be frustrating at
times. This summer the Alumni Association
wants to help its members during this process in several ways. First of all, we want to

feeling overwhelmed and out of ideas about
what to do next to get that all-important first
job. Secondly, we will help you make connections with other alumni who are already
working. And finally, we want to provide
some social activities to keep you occupied
while you wait for the phone to ring. We
want to keep it touch with you as you transition from student to graduate student, to
professional, to world traveler, or whatever.
Our program is called "Summer Connections" and we want you to participate. We
are still planning activities which will include networking breakfasts and or lunches,
making connections with the local business
community and an alumni hotline. Have any
ideas? All this is yours as part of your alumni
membership ($15 through May 31). Any
questions can be answered by calling Alumni
Services or Tanis Brown 752-4952. Do it
now - Get Connected!!

�Summer Housing
Tanis Brown
Housing Coordinator
Are you moving home fpr the summer,
leaving a roommate with the entire rent to
pay? Have you adopted a new puppy who
isn't welcome in your current apartment? Chare you looking for a place closer to the beach
or near your place of employment? If your
answer to any of these questions is yes, The
Housing Office may be able to help you.
Several students whose housing arrangements
will be changing in the near future have
approached the Housing Office for assistance. Some students are losing roommates,
but are happy with their living space. Others
need to find a roommate and a new place to
live. In addition, there are plenty of housing
possibilities for students who need a place to
live for the summer. If you are in a housing
dilemma, first check the Housing Board located in the Student Lounge. If that doesn't
help, stop by the Housing Office, 5316 Craven Hall for further assistance.
If you are leaving the area for the summer
but are planning on returning for classes in
the fall and will need housing, register your
name, address and telephone with the Housing Office. You will receive information
that will keep you updated on any roommate or housing vacancies during the summer. For more information on housing,
please call Tanis Brown at 752-4952.

Is your privacy at stake on
the Information Highway
William T. Holmes
Contributing Writer
T I 1 he federal government claims it
supports expanded and alterna
J L tive communications with pronouncements by Vice President Gore advocating government programs to advance
the "Information Highway," but the behavior of the federal government behind the
scenes is quite the opposite.
Conflicting policies, outdated regulations, sluggish approval process and insensitive Washington bureaucrats are hampering efforts to build the information highway. Telecommunication companies, according to the Wall Street Journal, are
concerned that government is setting up
road blocks with a penchant for control.
The FCC can accelerate or delay its
approval to achieve whatever effect it wants.
By controlling who can set prices and how
much they can charge, the FCC determines
who wins and who loses in the competition
to widen the information highway. Consequently, of "2.9 million homes scheduled
to be wired for video services, only 2.5%
will actually get two-way services." Instead of facilitating the information highway, the FCC, FAA, ICC and other New
Deal leftovers, act like sea anchors. The
economy suffers accordingly.
The FCC is not alone in its obstruction
ofthe information highway. Thebeliefthat
government can manage markets for the
benefit of all is at the heart of the problem.
The reality has always been that government involvement has the opposite effect
Benefactors are usually the limited few
who mean the most to there-election6f a
congressperson.
The latest excuse for government involvement, according to the June issue of
MacUser Magazine, "is the ability to eavesdrop on your telephone calls, read your e-
mail, and browse through your database
files." The Clinton administration has
declared that all electronic communications with federal agencies, must use a
National Security Agency (NSA) data
security technology called Escrowed Encryption Standard—the "Clipper chip."
It allegedly safeguards data from hackers
and industrial spies, but it has a "back
door" that permits the government to engage in surveillance and detection. The
Clipper chip has chilling ramifications
and litde justification. The government
claims to need the back door "to catch
criminals and thwart terrorists," but how
many of them are naive enough to use a
phone or computer system they know the
government can monitor, when they can
use any of a number offreeor commercial
encryption programs?
Government surveillance via the Clipper Chip, many contend, violates the
Fourth Amendment's guarantee to privacy. Yet the Clinton administration is
encouraging businesses (particularly
phone companies) to install the chip in
their communications equipment. The
big question, asks MacUser Magazine,
"will the government eventually move
from encouraging compliance to mandating it, essentially giving itself a key to
yourfrontdoor—atleastyour digital front
door T
If the Clipper chip is intended to catch
criminals, then it should be named PSP
(Pretty Stupid People) after those who
buy into i t If it is intended for domestic
surveillance, that might explain
govenment obstruction of the information highway until the only way you can
get to it is through the Clipper chip.
�Student Leaders
University Ball
Charge the Capital
Sacramento, CA. The California State
Student Association (CSSA) held its Student
Lobbying Conference April 16-18. Students
representing the 21 CSUs met to discuss the
1994 legislative agenda and how specific
actions may affect the students. Leaders
were given a quick review on thefinerpoints
of lobbying by Dan Faulk, a professor at
Humboldt State University. Students lobbied for several actions including student fee
increases, trustee reform, and financial aid.
"If the public does not fight hard enough to
ensure an affordable education for students,
fees will go up 24 percent and will push a lot
of students out of the university system," said
Andrea Wagner, CSSA rep from San Jose
State University. Approximately 50 students
were in attendance at the conference with Cal
State University Northridge driving up six
students to Sacramento. Humboldt State
University has been making regular trips to
Sacramento and has kept the student voice
alive at the Capital.
Raises versus
Student Fees
Assembly Bill 2714, authored by Assemblywoman Karnette, prohibits an increase
in UC or CSU executive salaries, benefits, or
perquisites in a year when student fees are
increased at the respective university. Salaries for the top university executives rose an
average of 160 percent at the UCs and 90
percentattheCSUsfrom 1982 to 1992. From
1982 to 1992, student fees have risen 135
percent at UCs and 190 percent at CSUs.
Since 1908, fees have increased in every year
except 1984—regardless of the state's fiscal
condition. Had this bill been in effect, no
executive increases would have been permitted for at least the past decade! You can help
this bill get passed by contacting your local
legislature or campus CSSA representative
through your Associated Student government
office. Get Involved!
Students
Support New
Campus
A resolution giving support to the opening of CSU, Monterey Bay was passed by the
California State Student Association on April
17. It was unknown whether the student
organization would pass this resolution because of the concerns the students have with
current and future budget cuts. The sixteen
member board voted \manimously to support
this new campus.
raises $32,000
Approximately 300 friends and supporters attended CSUSM's seventh annual
University Ball. The black-tie dinner-dance
and silent auction were held at the Sheraton
Grande Torrey Pines in La Jolla on April 9.
The Ball raised over $32,000 to support the
educational mission of the university. These
funds are allocated by the Foundation Board
of Directors to support important projects
and activities which are not State-funded,
such as: seed money for emerging programs,
special curriculum development work, academic grant development, community activities and lectures, annual community/campus
events such as the Pow Wow and the International Festival.
Among the distinguished guests were
Senator William A. "Bill" Craven, Assemblyman Robert Frazee, Senator David Kelly,
City of San Marcos Mayor Lee Thibadeau,
and City of Carlsbad Mayor Bud Lewis.
As part of the evening's festivities,
CSUSM President Bill Stacy presented Bill
Daniels as the 1994 honoree for his many
contributions to the world of business, community, government, and philanthropic organizations.
Connie L. Anderson of San Marcos,
chair of the event, stated, "The ball was an
unqualified success. This was due to the hard
work of the executive committee and the
generous support of many individuals and
corporations. In addition, to an elegant
evening, these people helped provide CSUSM
with additionalfinancialsupport, a margin of
excellence, needed to move the new university forward."
There were many large supporters of
the Ball. Corporations or individuals who
purchased $2,000-Star Tables included: H.F.
Ahmanson, Connie L. Anderson, Senator
William A. " Bill" Craven, Daniels
Cablevision, Dudek & Associates, Inc.,
Hillman Properties, Dr. Byong Kim, KPMG
Peat Marwick/David and Patti Down, Northern Telecom, Palomar Pomerado Health System, Rancho Coronado/Rancho Coronado
Properties LP, San Diego Gas & Electric, San
Diego Union-Tribune, Sharp Mission Park
Medical Group, and Bill and Sue Stacy.
In addition several individuals and companies donated $1000 or more for underwriting the Ball expenses. These included: Koll
Company, Thornes Bartolotta McGuire &
Padilla (attorneys), Robert Spanjian, Ralphs
Grocery Company, Connie Anderson and
Bob and Ruth Mangrum.
Also contributing to the success of the
evening were the efforts of Lucia Misiolek
who coordinated the ticket sales and Marcia
.Schaefer who coordinated the silent auction.

Health Service Fee still
under consideration
Joel Grinolds, MD, MPH
In the last issue of The Pride, I wrote an
article discussing the need for a Mandatory
Student Health Fee. The Student Health
Advisory Board (SHAB) is considering this
issue.
An Open Forum on this issue was held on
Tuesday, May 3. We are aware that many
students may not have been able to attend this
forum for many reasons. The Student Health
Advisory Board is still eliciting comments
and ideas concerning this important student
issue. Information concerning the Mandatory Student Health Fee is available at Student Health Services or by contacting me or
members of the board. The final meeting of
the SHAB this semester will be Tuesday,
May 10, at 11 AM. Please, try to respond by
this meeting since a recommendation will be
developed that will be effective for the fall,
1994 semester.
Along with the ongoing provision of primary and preventive health care as well as
special augmented services, Student Health
Services has a daily impact on your health
and safety at CSUSM. Student Health Services insures the immunization status on all
CSUSM students and administers vaccinations, protecting CSUSM students and staff
from Measles, Rubella, Hepatitis, and a variety of other infectious diseases.
Student Health Services keeps your classmates healthy, so they don't spread diseases
to you. And when your classmate is too sick
to attend class, we can work with the student
and the instructor to excuse the absence for
medical reasons in order to encourage the
students to stay home and get well.
Also, pharmacy services are available
providing low cost prescription medications
and, in the near future, selected over-thecounter products. We offer first aid and
urgent care to call CSUSM students, staff and
visitors. We will be involved in the campuswide emergency plan and will be at the center
of any response to earthquake, fire or other
major disasters. We provide medical support
to major campus events, such as graduation.
Health and Wellness information, materials
and health education programs are provided
to the campus as a whole.
Furthermore, if you have never used Student Health Services, you might wish to consider doing so in the future when you need
medical assistance. The level of the care
provided is excellent. Moreover, we understand your needs, both in terms of time and
convenience. We are striving daily to mea-
sure up to your standards of quality and
accountability.
The Student Health Services staff is dedicated to providing quality primary and preventive health care, and we have documented
that dedication by achieving accreditation.
Student Health Services is fully accredited by
both the Association for Ambulatory Health
Care, Inc., and the California Medical Association.

The CSUSM Team looking strong!
I wanted to let the entire university
community know just how well our
WalkAmerica team did last Saturday. The
weather was beautiful and we all had a lot
of fun walking the 25K. We had 15
CSUSM team participants and 5 booth
volunteers, and we raised over $1,000 for
the March of Dimes. The final figures
aren't in yet, but we more than doubled
last year's total.
Many thanks go to Dora Knoblock for
her t ireless o rganizational e fforts,
Deborah Smith and Deborah Schafhuizen
for communityrecruiting,to John Grosso
for t-shirt design, and to Bill Stacy for

SHE THOUGHT SHE MIGHT BE PREGNANT...
and turned to a trusted friend to confide her
anxiety. "First, you must ge*t a pregnancy
test," the friend suggested, "and I know
where you can have the test free. The place
is BIRTHRIGHT."
"I know someone who was there recently
and she said they have wonderful, friendly
counselors. And she told me all of their
services are free. I ll tell you what . . . I'll
get their telephone number and check to
see when the office is open. Then I II go

PUBLIC SAFETY
Buckle Up For Safety
Dave Ross
Public Safety Officer
I t's hard to change attitudes and break
bad habits. But thousands die on our
highways each year because of one bad
habit. So getintoagoodhabitand buckle
your safety belt. It could change your
life.
Children depend on us to keep them
safe from harm. One of the easiest ways
to do this is always buckle them into a
child safety seat. Buckle, em up!
Those of you who know first hand
and have witnessed the effectiveness of
safety belts, pass on the experience to a
friend.
Fun facts : Women are more safety
conscious than men, with 63% always
buckling up, versus 51% of the men.
Drivers of silver cars are more likely
to buckle up. Those who drive blue,
black, and maroon cars are least likely to
wear safety belts.
BUCKLE UP FOR LIFE!

Teaching Diversity
Through Racism
Roy Latas
StaffWriter
According to the CSUSM Mission Statement attending this university, "provides an
atmosphere in which students c an experience a challenging education in a supportive
environment, preparing them to live cooperatively and competitively in a world of cultural
and ethnic diversity
" Exposing students
to cultural diversity and global perspectives
can present an enormous task for educators
when our traditions have traditionally brought
a different relevance to education.
Oddly enough, an exceptional opportunity to study the African American viewpoint
came this semester, but not as part of the
Upper-Division General Education requirement. The educational opportunity lies in
English400H: Major Authors-Ishmael Reed.
Do not feel badly if you have not heard of
Reed; he was hailed almost 20 years ago as a
dynamic voice of the African American community and was nominated for two Pulitzer
prizes in 1969. Yet recently, Reed has fallen
out of his avant garde favor by displeasing
feminists and segments of the African American scholastic community.
The class has been taughtduring the Spring
semester by Dr. Kenneth Mendoza who has
exceptional foresight by bringing Ishmael
Reed's work to light This Major Authors
course has studied novels with the descriptive titles of Terrible Twos, Yellow Back
Radio-Broke Down, Airing Dirty Laundry,
Writing is Fighting and Mumbo Jumbo, to
name a few. The class discussions revolve
around the topics of misogyny, oral traditions
in literature, blasphemy, rhetorical style, intraintercultural relations, and the accuracy of
accepted historical facts. A female Liberal
Studies major states, "Perhaps things you
don't want to see or hear may be beneficial
when trying to understand the nature of ethnic problems."
Reed's dynamic voice challenges the faint
of heart and the culturally biased reader with
the frank and graphic language of a scholar
gup
E 2gS
Sfl
who has battled racism throughout his life.
English major Greg Marre commends Reed's
literary style as being "straightforward and
not worried about who he will offend." Reed's
accounts of the African American community seeking dignity in American society provide this reader with a cultural immersion
that I have not found in other classes on this
campus. Ishmael Reed's unique heritage
encompasses the African, French, Irish, and
Cherokee cultures which highlight some of
the most seriously repressed cultural groups
within our society over the last 100 years.
Reed's novels approach racism through a
satirical vein that questions economic policies, religious dogma, and outdated cultural
biases.
English majors find Reed's novels challenging because of an oral style of writing
that neglects formal punctuation in several of
the novels under study, yet the orality of the
texts gives a conversational flavor that draws
any reader into a personal involvement with
the characters. English major Jeff Keehn
comments, "As Reed reflects the complex
composition of the modern human sensibility, he questions monolithic and monocultural biases." The novels of Ishmael Reed
explain both the ideology of the oppressors
and the oppressed in a way that the readers
can place their opinions while realizing the
implications of those opinions.
The diversity pledged by CSUSM will
evolve as our campus matures; however, the
vehicles used to approach human unity
through understanding diversity need to create an attitude of solidarity among humanity
instead of the currently accepted separatebut-useful cultural recognition that pervades
our society. Reed shows the complicated
network of racism in America, and by understanding the conventions that produce racism, students deliberate on the vehicles to
eliminate it.
CSUSM's aggressive waste reduction program has received enthusiastic response from
the campus community. Since the program has
been in effect for a significant period of time, a
survey of the population serviced will be taken in
order to evaluate the program and make improvements where necessary. You are encouraged to take a few minutes of your time to
complete the brief survey which has been mailed
to you. Your completed survey may be dropped
off at: Admissions and Records, Associated
Students Office, Duplication Center, Library Circulation Desk, or University Store Customer
Service Window. Completing the survey will
assist the Solid Waste Reduction Planning Committee in developing an even more effective
program.

members of this group or that group, only
hurts us all in the end. Yes, we may look
different and speak different and even act
different. But for government to solidify and
galvanize those differences, only perpetuates
the problem. All the feel-good programs
lawmakers have passed, have failed to acknowledge the smallest unit of society, the
individual.
It is because of individual effort, that
we are living longer, healthier and more comfortable lives. It was individuals using their
minds—not because this race or that ethnic
group or that gender caused it to happen. It
was the individual, the enterprising, thinking
individual.
You want to protect endangered species? A private individual in Kenya is already
doing it. Where once a dying population of
elephants was nearing extinction, it is now
flourishing because the elephants are owned
and protected as private property by an "individual," with no cost to the taxpayer.
Why the insistence on government to
care for us? Is it because we don't trust one
another anymore? Government has made us
paranoid focusing its efforts on our differences, that we have forgotten we are all
members of the same species—human. Can
you trust a government that subsidizes tobacco and alcohol, and conducts radiation
experiments on its own citizens, to care for
your health, your welfare, or your child's
education?
Some of us have lost faith that man,
acting freely, and on his or her own behalf,
willdowhatisbestforhimselforherself. It's
only through voluntary cooperation between
individuals, not force, that we will achieve
what is in each person's self-interest. We
know this as thefreemarket. By dispersing
power onto each individual, the free market
provides a safety valve against the concentration of power. To give away our right to
govern ourselves to a small band of thugs and
think that they have our interests at heart, is as
naive as it is a sure recipe for tyranny (and a
lot less freedom).
Someone once said that justice is blind.
I choose to stay blind when it comes to
humanity. When I look at people, I do not see
members of aminority, ethnic, or racial group.
All I see are faces of individuals.
�LETTERS TO THE EDITOR
Morality in the Classroom
Setting Our Sights Too High
Dear Editor:
Dear Editor:
Concerning the article, "Cliche in the
Classroom": Mr. Huntington asserts, that
"the future of our children depends upon" the
removal of the three conservative Christian
school board members in Vista. The atrocity
these board members have committed is a
recent move to focus sex education curriculum on abstinence rather than a "detailed
discussion of methods of birth control at a
time when the proper use of a condom could
very easily mean the difference between life
and death." It seems that Mr. Huntington
finds such a move "morally repugnant." Mr.
Huntington, your belief that birth control
should be emphasized is morally repugnant.
It is a fact that condom failure ratings are, at
best 11 percent. Should we then teach "children" that it is perfectly allright to have sex
using a condom when the chances of failed
protection is 11 percent or higher? Would
you, Mr. Huntington, send your child to school
if there was an 11 percent chance she would
contract a deadly disease? No, you would
not. You, like any other sensible parent,
would make your child abstain from putting
themsetves lii such a deadly position, i , and
many other people, can testify that abstinence
is not an unrealistic "cliche." Furthermore,
abstinence is the only foolproof way of avoiding STDs. Moral repugnance occurs when
moral recluses deceive children about the
real facts of STD prevention.

Do you throw lit cigarettes from your car

Opening Educational
Doors With Poetry
Getting fourth-graders excited about learning English or science is a
challenge, and even more so when the class is comprised of children with a wide
range of English-speaking abilities. However, Merryl Goldberg, assistant
professor at California State University, San Marcos found that using poetry as
an educational tool dramatically improved students' reading and writing
abilities, attention, comprehension, and most importantly, enthusiasm about
learning and expressing knowledge.
In researching the uses of poetry in a 4th grade classroom in Southern
California, Goldberg found that using poetry in the classroom resulted in
students doing far more writing and reading, and showing a higher level of
comprehension on what they are reading.

"When the rules of grammar and syntax are eliminated, as they can be in
poetry, writing becomes playful. This can set the stage for children who are
developing their English skills to work with words and ideas. Students learn
best when they are engaged and are having fun, and there is no question that is
exactly what is going on when students are doing poetry," explained Goldberg.
Writing poetry led naturally to reading poetry. "Children in the class are
devouring books on poems," Goldberg explained. The project improved selfesteem and helped shy students overcome their reluctance to speak in front of
others. It enabled a student with behavioral problems to blossom, and it was
a source of inspiration for students who were learning to read."
Goldberg further found that writing poetry helps students gain understandings of subject matter, such as science. "Writing poetry requires action and
attention on the part of the student, so they get a deeper understanding of the
subject," said Goldberg. One student composed a poem on meteors after a
science lesson:
Meteors fly like a fly.
Maybe it's a butterfly
with its wings spread
high in the sky.
Goldberg's students have written poems on numerous subjects including
sharks, family, oceanography, and holidays around the world. For more
information about this project, contact Merryl Goldberg (619) 752-4322.

VOLUNTEER COUNSELORS
NEEDED FOR
SPECIAL SUMMER CAMP
Counselors are needed for Camp-ALot, a residential summer camp program
at Palomar Mountain that is operated by
ARC-San Diego (Association for Retarded Citizens).
The camp provides children and
adults who have developmental disabilities with the opportunity to participate in
regular summer camp activities such as
hiking, swimming, arts and crafts. Ordinarily some 100 campers, from ages 6
through adult, attend each of the four
sessions. "Our ratio of counselors to
campers is much higher than you would
find in a regular camp situation," said
Lin Taylor, camp director. "If we don't
have enough counselors, we have to turn
away campers and they do not get this
wonderful opportunity to learn about nature."
Counselors are needed for sessions
runningfromJuly 5 through Aug. 16. A
children-only session will run Aug. 1115.
Volunteer counselors must be 18 or
older and make a commitment to complete at least one camp session. No experience is necessary and orientation will be
provided. Counselors receive room,
board, transportation to and from the
camp, Taylor said.

Student Leaders Honored at Ceremony
By VICTORIA B. SEGALL
Pride Editor
Student leaders from Cal
State San Marcos were recognized Thursday, May 10, during
the annual Student Leadership
Awards Night at the Rancho
Bernardo Inn. The host of the
evening was comedian Carlos
Oscar, who entertained more
than 200 guests, including staff,
their families, and students.
The evening began with
opening words from Dean
Manship, ASI President. The
first award presented was the
On the Spot Recognition Award
to Hedy Price. Vice President
of Finance Stephen Garcia
announced Michael Harrod as
the winner of the award for
the University Student Union
Advisory Board Student Leader.
Club leaders were also
awarded, including Circle K's
Olga Ramirez, the History Club's
Stacey Helton, Parent Teacher's
Tammy Rodriguez, The Pride's
Claudia Ignacio, and the
Victorious Club's
Rita
Reynolds.
Awards were also presented
to the American Indian Student
Alliance's Ronnie Whitehorse,
Anime Project Alliance's Penny
Lanese* ~ Ballet Folklorico's
Margarita Preciado, the French
Club's Anna Gabriele, the
German Club's Janet Williams,
and M.E.Ch.A.'s Izabel Solis.
Solis was one of few students who gave an acceptance
speech for the evening, directing her words to her club members: "I'm not going to say, 'Si
se puede,' because we know we
made all of our goals a reality.
Instead I'm going to say, 'Hasta
la victoria siempre.'"
The audience, who dined on
a dinner of salad, rolls, and
chicken and pasta, welcomed
"joke" breaks from comedian
Oscar during the two-hour long
awards ceremony. A video presentation also showed highlights
from past campus events, including Cesar Chavez Day and
SpringFest.
More leaders were recognized during the evening, including awards to the Accounting
Society's Jennifer Weishaup,

Tutors are placed in the
schools to assist the students
with their studies and with college preparation. Currently the
SASOP has 60 tutors/interns
who work in 20 different elementary, middle, and high schools in
North County. All of the tutors
are CSUSM students, and Perez
added, "We are always looking
for more help." ^
One of the newest programs
that the SASOP is participating
in is the North County Outreach Symposium, or NCOS.
According to Perez, the NCOS
"brings all outreach services in
North County together to discuss
the types of programs currently
being implemented, to which
schools they are being offered,
and to explore potential collaborative efforts."
Another new program being
offered by the SASOP is the
LEAP program, which stands for
"Lets Encourage Academic Performance." According to Perez,
this program is a collaborative
effort with Fallbrook Unified
School District that entails
summer coursework taught on
campus by CSUSM professors,
in addition to that taught in Fallbrook. "The goal of this program
is to get the students to enter a
rigorous course of study," said
Perez.
Some of you may have
noticed the large groups of elementary students touring the
CSUSM campus recently. They
are part of the "I'm Going To
College" program offered by
the Student Academic Services
Outreach Program, or SASOP,

Cal State San Marcos recognized the community service
efforts o f more than 75 i ndividuals and 20 organizations i n N orth
County on Tuesday night before
a packed house at the C alifornia
Center for the A rts i n EscondidQ.
A mong those receiving recognition d uring the seventh
annual Celebration o f Service
was 12-year-old Gidget Schulz,
a sixth-grader at Park Dale E le• mentary i n Encinitas, who was
honored f or distinguished service.
For the past t wo years, Gidget
has been helping homeless c hildren through a charity foundation
called "Gidget's W ay" Using
donated money she receives f rom
the foundation, Gidget gives
teddy bears to the homeless c hildren i n N orth County.
" I used t o go d own to San
Diego and I w ould see the homeless people there and I w ould
c ry," said Gidget. " I thought
I w ould give away teddy bears
because teddy bears make me
feel secure and I thought i t w ould
give the homeless people security."
To help raise money, Gidget
made flowerpot pens and sold
them.
She now gets money
through advertisements and
donations to her foundation. She
also has some o f her friends help
i n her efforts.
" I t hink this has made me
a better person," Gidget said.
"One o f m y missions is to help
other kids do the same things I
do."
Other distinguished students
included Jessica M ichalkiewicz
o f V ista and C arli Zavaleta, a
CSUSM student.
Jessica aids kindergarten
kids d uring recess and shows students around campus. Zavaleta
is the director o f Precious C hildren's M inistry i n San Diego,
a volunteer-based, nonprofit program designed for children that
have been i n foster homes or that
have drug-addicted parents.
" I want to give back to God's
children " Zavaleta said. " I learn
f rom the kids. They are so f ull o f
energy and joy. Here they develop
s kills to help them cope w ith
what they are going through."
Zavaleta encourages people
to do what they l ike to do and
to serve others. " When you give
to others, you receive more than
what y ou have given them," she
said.
To a crowd o f honorees,
friends, and f amily members,
several presenters distributed
plaques that recognized students
i n a ll age groups for their community service. K GTV Channel

Dear Psyche Fairy,
I have a good friend who I am
attracted to, and would like to

relationship, and I'm not sure if
she's ready to date again. Also, I'm
not very sure that she is in any way

uncomfortable. What should I do?
Sincerely,

Dear Confused,
If you're worried about your friend
not being ready to date again, the
best thing to do is not rush her or
push anything on her. She'll need
time to get over whatever happened
in her last relationship. If you are
nature will take it's course, and
whatever will happen will happen.
Just be patient. But if you can't

the answer you've been stressing
over. The worst that can happen
is that you will get turned down.
If she's a true friend, she won't
let something like that make your
friendship uncomfortable. You
shouldn't either. Don't worry about
it so much, and just ask. You never
know what will happen. Good luck.

It seems ASI is a mock setting for students to get experience in business administration, except that they get to
play with real money that real
people worked hard to earn.
Although the money is real,
ASI can invent its investors
because nobody is involved.
A total of 245 students
voted in this year's elections.
Therefore, it is possible for ASI
to interpret that 287,750 of the
dollars they get to play with
next year come from nowhere,
because students don't care
about who spends their money
and how. If anyone has more
of this extra money, and would
like to give it away with no
strings attached, it sure would

Writing Studies
By JEREMY ZAGARELA
While Queer Theory, Gender
Studies, Deconstructionism,
Marxism, and Cultural Relativism
are all subjects you will find discussed daily in the classroom at
CSUSM, it's obvious that satire is
not. Literature students can wax
intelligent on the nebulous theories of Foucault and the incoherent
ramblings of Derrida but fail to
notice formal literary genres and
historical facts. This fact was driven home to me after the response I
got to my article, "College Changes
You."
Anita Brookner wrote, "Satire
is dependent on strong beliefs,
and on strong beliefs wounded." I
have a radical proposition. Perhaps
the hours and hours of theory
you have been reading have really
sunk in. If Jim doesn't have strong
beliefs, then his beliefs can't be
wounded and satire can't exist.
Satire takes place when a small
breach in ethics is taken and
pushed to the extreme, making
it both hysterical and horrifying,
and if the murdering of innocent
infants by the hundreds doesn't
make you think, nothing will.
My story was fiction, but the
cultural sensitivity indoctrination
of CSUSM made it impossible for
most to see that. So join John
Lennon and imagine a world. Go
ahead: imagine a worfd with right
and wrong, objective morality, personal responsibility - go against
the flow and imagine a world
where language actually means
something and everything the theorists have been telling you actually means nothing.

the world", but they thrive in the

Election and SpringFest Low Turnout
By TIM FARMER
Pride Staff Writer
During my first semester
here at CSUSM, I have heard
about the history of low turnouts for elections and special
events. Now that I am here, I see
the problem is not getting any
better.
Last week, we had our student elections t nd our annual
SpringFest. The SpringFest drew
just a few Hundred students, and
the elections only saw three percent of students vote. Unfortunately, I did not participate in
either activity, and I really don't
have many reasons.
One thing I suggest could be
a problem is insufficient advertising. The only way I found out
about SpringFest was by reading
a "Battle of the Bands" bulletin.
It stated that the bands would be
playing at SpringFest. Of course,
the original date was rained out,
but I didn't realize that until the
next week's issue of The Pride
came out.
The elections were almost
the same way. Every one running
for office had their "Vote (name)
for President," or "(name) is your
best choice." Two problems were
that there was little talk about
when the elections were being
held, and there was almost no
competition between candidates.
If there are two students running for the same position, there
should be bright, colorful signs
with catch phrases. It sounds
very much like high school campaigning, but gimmicks do work.
The least it will do is draw
attention, which is the first step
toward getting students to vote.
The main problem is that
students didn't vote or go to
SpringFest. This lack of school
pride makes me feel like I am
attending an extension school. I
am as much to blame, because I
did not participate in either event.
But I know that I should have
helped to redirect our school's
spirit. So on May 21st, at the
Battle of the Bands, I will
be there supporting our school.

Of the eighteen positions on the ballot
for the upcoming Associated Students
Inc. (ASI) election, five positions are
empty, as in no one is running, and of
the candidates running, none of them
have any opposition,
The election is to be held Monday,
March 22, with polls opening at 8 a.m.,
through March 25, polls closing at 5 p.m.
Along with electing ASI representatives,
voters will also see on the ballot two
referendum^; student health facilities fee
increase and student health services fee
increase.
Only one candidate is running for
each position in this election«
Campaign advertising
Erin Dalman, corporate secretary and
VP of communication for ASI, organized
advertisements through The Pride,
bulletin boards on campus, In-the-Loop
and on the dougar Channel, making
it aware to students that ASI elections
were in the not so distant future.
According to Crystal Folk, vice
president of finance, ASI spent a
rough estimate of about $100 toward
advertisement in The Pride, flyers,
and posters through Student Residential
Life.
.
'
Information, advertising and all forms
were made . available approximately
three weeks prior to candidates turning
in applications. Applications were due
to ASI by March 2, by 5 pint The next
day the applications were reviewed by
the election committee for grade and
eligibility requirements*
Write-In candidates
"People are encouraged to run as
write-in candidates," Dalman said.
She said that it is unfortunate only one
student is running for each position and
that this is an opportunity for students to
have not only a choice, but also a voice.
A write-in candidate is any student
that does not turn in an ASI application,
but chooses to campaign for a position,
and then has voters manually type in
their name on the ballot.
The option of being a write-in
candidate is not advertised on any
of ASI's posters or flyers. However,
Dalman explained that information will
be posted In-The-Loop, The Cougar
Channel and in students clubs, soon.
See ELECTION, page 2
CSUSM's Student Health Services is
currently in a tug-of-war with rising health
care costs and a limited budget. This predicament leaves SHS no choice but to turn
the student population for more funding.
However, the student body has the right to
vote for or against the increased funding, so
knowing your money's potential may help
you decide which way you will vote.
In a recent interview, director of Student Health Services Dr. Karen Nicholson
addressed what each part of the budget is
paying for and why the assistance is so
imperative. "(The budget) consists of two
pots," she said. "The allowed state budget
pays for my salary and a small part of operations. Everything else, (such as) services,
pharmaceuticals...is paid by student fees."
The reason SHS is requesting fee
increases is that student enrollment is

Dean Lilly Resigns
By TOM PFINGSTEN
Pride StaffWriter
Steve Lilly announced last week that he will
be stepping down as dean of the College of Education. Lilly has served at CSUSM for fourteen
years after being hired in 1990 as the founding
dean of the college of education.
Following closely on the heels of the Karen
Haynes' appointment as the new president of
CSUSM, this change in leadership has again
made headlines as school district administrators
across San Diego County struggle to make sense
of the drastic changes under way in California's
educational system.
Officials at CSUSM have decided to appoint
Mark Baldwin as interim dean. A professor at
CSUSM since 1995, Baldwin will serve for a
year beginning on July 1, when Lilly's resignation takes effect.

Yellow Ribbon Club M ind the stone'
By TOM PFINGSTEN
Pride News Editor
As one of Cal State San
Marcos' newest on-campus
organizations,
the Yellow
Ribbon Club hosted a fundraiser
at Cold Stone Creamery last
Thursday in an effort to raise
money and bolster awareness
of suicide among students at
CSUSM.
"We want people to be aware
that suicide exists, and that we
should be more open about
suicide, instead of pushing it
aside and hiding it," said Chris
Sanchez, head of CSUSM's
Yellow Ribbon chapter.
The Yellow Ribbon program,
which now operates on high
school and college campuses
across the United States, was
started by the Emee family,
whose son Michael committed
suicide.
At CSUSM, the club hopes to
raise awareness by sponsoring
campus events with speakers,
Sanchez said. They also hope
to purchase a banner soon, since
many students are still unaware
of the club's existence.
The Cold Stone fundraiser
was designed to aid a tight
budget, while allowing Yellow
Ribbon volunteers the chance to
work "behind the stone."
"It's a lot of fun," said
volunteer Tanja Schroeder,
working alongside Sanchez
and Lindsay Hilz. "I've only
been here for half an hour and
I've already been making cones
and s tuff... And the ones that I
burn, Lindsay and I eat them."

BUDGET CUTS
Tuesday, March 16,2004 3
In a February 11 interview, the college
representative for the Budget and
Long Range Planning Committee, and
mathematics education professor, Dr. Tom
Bennett adamantly expressed his wish for
"students to understand that the faculty
really is supporting their situation."
Bennett recently revealed a document
previously kept in confidence to evade
outside politicking that might corrupt
good decision making. The text primarily
outlined two principles unanimously agreed
upon at a December 15 University Planning
The latter of these two concessions
provides for new programs and expansion
of current offerings, in order to meet the
needs of the community, according to
Bennett's delineation.
Bennett emphasized that, despite budget
bickering, "There's still a central focus on
preserving what's best for students. I 'm
really happy to see that, because that's
not always the way things run — because
the students are not always at the table.
Everybody's here for the right reason. The
students' best interests are really at the
table."
He furthermore conveyed, "I can't think
of anybody at any of the meetings that I've
been to that stood in any opposition at all.
If they're here I hope that they go.
"It's very heartening to hear the way
things are going, even in bad times,"
Bennett added. Lilly seconded this notion,
saying that, "The good times always end
and the bad times always end, and probably
the most important thing is to keep our
morale up at all times, keeping our focus.
I 'm confident that this school cares about
the students and both quality and access of
instruction for students the most."
Bennett voiced his own encouragement
regarding his role as an educator, saying,
"I know that I can have a real impact as
a teacher. Because of your position on
campus, you can have a real impact on the
community."
FEE INCREASE
f rom page 1
Council meeting last year.
The two priorities highlighted "ideals that
were really held onto firmly as ideals that
need to be put above all others," according
to Bennett, and were recommended to the
University Budget Committee:
1. "The highest campus priority is to
provide quality instructional experiences
that allow students to proceed at their
preferred pace towards degree completion.
This priority means providing enough
in-class sections and other instructional
offerings to meet student needs."
2. "Implement the Academic Blueprint
at least in part through the establishment
of creative partnerships to provide external
and community support."
In addition, SHS would also be able to
offer dental and optometry screenings, but
not treatment.
Improvements would also be made in
orthopedic services and disease prevention. Any excess in collected funds would
also go toward current employees' benefits
plan.
SHS has devised other strategies for raising money other than targeting students,
Nicholson said. "We are in the process of
obtaining (a state funded program) called
Family Pack." The program would offer
STD screening and family planning programs. "This wouldn't just be for women,
but for men as well," she said.
The vote on the proposed Health Services
fee increase will take place March 22-25.
SHS sympathizes with the value of student
dollars, especially with the recent increase
in tuition, prompting their decision to let
students decide with a vote whether to pay
an increased health services fee.

dwindling. While CSUSM estimated the
number of full-time enrollment (FTE) to be
6,643 in fall of 2004, the actual FTE was
only 5,804. This leaves the student health
department short $29,365, with students
paying $35 per semester.
To appropriate the shortage, SHS has
requested students to vote on increasing
the health fee from $35 to $50 starting next
semester.
"The funds would first stabilize what
we are already doing," Dr. Nicholson
said. "Then we would be able to offer an
increase in our hours of operations for our
psychiatry department," which she said
was in high demand.
Nicholson continued, "We would also
be able to offer pharmacy hours during the
same time (as the clinic)."

are limitless possibilities to explore; I just
want feedback letting me know we are
moving in the right directions.
However, this is where the readers must
get involved. I would like to see Thé Pride
in the hands of more students and faculty
for reasons of actual interest and not just
for criticism. But, I also need to know
what we are missing in order to suggest to
the editorial staff how we can improve. So,
I ask you, the readers of The Pride, what
do you want to know? What are our stories
missing or not covering in enough depth?
These are important questions that I hope
will spark thoughtful responses. My e-mail
is dolan005@csusm.edu. Thank you to all
who contacted me this week with thoughtful insights and comments.
Last week was a good week for reader
comments on The Pride. I received a lot
of positive feedback regarding the special
travel issue. One person commented to
me that this edition of The Pride marked
the first time that she had read an entire
issue from front to back without skipping
any story. I felt reluctantly pleased by the
statement and, of course, encouraged her
to read more of The Pride on other weeks
as well.
A more specific idea that I got from my
friend above was that she was interested in
the content of this special issue. Indeed,
that is something I want to explore in more

Encouraging more Write-in student candidates for ASI
Associated Students, Inc. (ASI) is getting ready to hold their annual election for
student government officers for the next
school year.
To advertise the need for candidates
for the election, ASI printed up flyers and
posters with the slogan, "Go For It." The
result of this highly motivating slogan is
an election where not one of the candidate
positions is being contested.
"We tried to encourage students. It's
unfortunate that the student body doesn't
care," said Erin Dalman, ASI vice president of communication.
We do not agree with Ms. Dalman, we
think that people need to be convinced
with passion and reason to get involved to
do something. Student government was
all about free hamburgers and enthralling
speeches by Eric Roper to get students
riled up about voting for various California propositions. Mr. Roper, where is our
hamburger and speech to get us excited
about participating in our own campus
government?
We want to encourage all students at
CSUSM to run for student government. In
case you have not seen the announcement
on ASI's website regarding "write-in" candidates, it is not too late for new candidates
to join the race.
There are so many great benefits and

incentives to ASI that we think the "Go For
It" slogan just doesn't make the grade.
First of all, board members get paid.
Yes, students are awarded scholarship
money for all elected offices. ASI officers
receive a minimum scholarship of $7,999
for president, $6,290 for vice presidents
and $800 for representatives.
Crystal Folk, ASI vice president of
finance, explained why ASI did not put
the scholarship information on advertising
posters, "We didn't want people to do it just
for the money."
Well we want students to run for the
money. We want a student who has
lots of ideas, ambition and passion, but just
can't seem to spare any time because of his
or her part-time job at The Gap. Now he
or she has a great opportunity to quit that
job and can finally make time to work on
making a difference at CSUSM.
Associated Students, Inc. offers students a wonderful opportunity to facilitate campus life at CSUSM. You get a
chance to coordinate functions, including
the annual masquerade ball and schedule
famous people to speak on campus, just to
name a few. The best incentive for being
an elected officer is having an excellent
experience to put on your resume.
Another great incentive of being an ASI
officer is having an office to hang out in on
campus. And if you are elected president
or vice president, you get your very own
personal office on campus. Just image ...
No more computer labs. No more using
your car as your locker. Not even all your
professors have this luxury.
Please become a write-in candidate. Do
not let these few people get all these benefits without doing some work for it.

In the corner of ARTS 340, the video
lab at CSUSM, there's a beaten down blue
couch that nobody is sitting in, and a funky
painted table stacked with magazines that
nobody is reading. That's because the students from Visual Arts (VSAR) 306 are too
busy editing footage for their projects to
think about lounging around.
VSAR 306, video in the community, is
an entry level class offered every spring
that gives students the opportunity to learn
about video production while working
within the community. The class is separated into groups and assigned a community partner, who they then collaborate with
to develop video projects significant to that
community.
Kristine Diekman, chair of visual and
performing arts, who teaches the class, said
that video in the community "makes a nice
bridge between San Marcos and the community."
While it teaches students about video
production, Diekman said, it also benefits
"people who need help in some way," and it
helps "the community members get something done" that they might not be able to
otherwise.

's Day origins
places to celebrate on this side of the *
By LORIANN SAMANO
Pride Staff Writer
In the celebration of St.
Patrick's Day, you could go to
Zip and Zack's for some green
beer, the corn beef and cabbage
or just to check out a band. In
other parts of the world, however,
there are other exciting ways to
celebrate St. Patty's day.
In Ireland, there is a week
long celebration of parades
and parties, and one might
also expect to experience the
excitement in Boston, where
many Irish descendants will be
drinking it up, and enjoying the
city's festivities of decorative
floats and other funfilledevents.
In honor of St. Patrick, here's
something to think about while
enjoying a green beer and
hanging out with your friends:
Why is this the day people
wear green and partake in liquid
pleasures?
St. Patrick was the patron
saint of Ireland and was born in
Wales about AD 385. At the age
of sixteen, he was captured by
marauders who kept him captive.
While enslaved, he grew closer
to God, and after six years of
enslavement, he escaped and
years later joined a monastery for
a period of twelve years. During
his years in the monastery,
he decided his calling was to
convert the pagans, of Ireland, to
Christianity.
It was not an easy task since his
superiors appointed St. Palladius
to Ireland, and two years later
Patrick, having adopted this
as his Christian name, was
appointed as second bishop to
Ireland, and St. Palladius was
transferred to Scotland.
Although
Patrick
was
successful at winning converts,
the Celtic druids did not agree
with him and locked him up
several times. He escaped several
times. He traveled throughout
Ireland establishing monasteries
across the country; as well
as schools and churches that
would aid in the conversion of
the Irish country to Christianity.
St. Patrick's mission lasted for
thirty years before he retired and
then died on March 17 in AD
461. That's the day we all know
as St. Patrick's Day and have
celebrated ever since.
There is also some interesting
folk lore to chat about being
that St. Patrick was believed to
raise the dead, oooh. There is
also a rumor that people said
he drove all the snakes from
Ireland, however, no snakes were
ever native to Ireland; snakes
might have been spoken of to
symbolize the conversions of the
pagans to Christianity. There's
also the leprechaun; that if one
startled him, he would take you
to a pot of gold. Then there's the
fact that corn beef and cabbage
was not a traditional dish in
Ireland, but only traditional to
the Irish immigrants who came
to America and could only afford
this type of food, which then
became an American Irish dish.
And then there's the shamrock.
St. Patrick was said to have used
this symbol to explain the holy
trinity to his followers. He used
the three-leafed shamrock in his
sermons to represent how the
Father, the Son, and the Holy
Sprit could all exist as separate
elements of the same entity. This
is when his followers adopted the
custom of wearing a shamrock
on his feast day.
St. Patrick's Day became a
custom in America in 1737,
in Boston, which was the first
year that St. Patrick's Day
was publicly celebrated in this
country.
If you're looking forward to
celebrating St. Patty's Day, you
might try North County where
you could stop by The Blvd,
in San Marcos to check out the
bands the Plug Uglys and Scotch
Green for five bucks. There's
also Tom Giblins, a traditional
Irish pub, in Carlsbad, for some
entertainment. Maybe you live
near the Belly up, in Solana
Beach, where they're having a
St. Patty's Day party with the
band Skelpin, playing traditional
Celtic music. Or, you could
journey down town, where
there will be a celebration in the
Gaslamp quarter with a musical
block party from 5 p.m. until
midnight with fifteen of your
favorite bars and restaurants.

If these lips could talk
ratent:
The Vagina Monologues' to bring women's voices to CSUSM
By LAURA WHTTAKER
Pride StaffWriter
From tampons to orgasms,
from pubic hair to childbirth,
from genital mutilation to sex,
"The Vagina Monologues"
(TVM) delves into the most
coveted and misunderstood
foundations of the female
persona.
Tomorrow, March 17 at 7:30
p.m. in ARTS 240 students
can see a performance of this
intriguing show.
An original work by internationally acclaimed playwright
Eve Ensler, TVM is based on
Ensler's interviews with over
200 women who were willing to speak out about their
vaginas, sometimes with great
emotion and detail.
These testimonies range
from answers to questions
like, "If your vagina could
talk, what would it say in two
words?" to detailed re-enactments of women's experiences with sexual abuse and
torture.
The show is always changing as Ensler updates her work
every year based on her latest
interactions with women.
These declarations have
grown from a one-woman
show, to a globally executed
creation, usually performed
by three or more women.
The V-Day Oceanside
Troupe, organized by local
resident Cari Bacon, came
together to perform the controversially titled play last
month at the Star Theatre in
Oceanside for the second year
in a row. After being invited
to see the sold out show, student coordinator for women's
studies at CSUSM, Josh
Harris, encouraged the ladies
to perform their work on the
CSUSM campus as part of an
extensive series of events in
recognition of Women's History Month.
This time of the year is particularly significant for performances of TVM because from
it has sprung a movement
called V-Day that focuses on

raising awareness about violence against women, as well
as taking a proactive stand
toward eradicating it.
V-Day is celebrated on
February 14, and most performances of TVM are concentrated around this time
however, women who are
involved in V-Day are active
in their efforts all year long,
traveling to places like Juarez,
Cairo and Afghanistan in order
to help end violence against
women and girls everywhere.
According to Harris and
associate professor of women's studies Linda Pershing,
there have been numerous
calls from the community in
response to the advertisement
of TVM in local papers. The
public is not only interested
in coming to the performance
at CSUSM, they are worried
about getting tickets.
Bacon will be performing along with five or six
other women who were also
involved in the Oceanside performance of TVM, including
CSUSM student Cassandra
Collins.
Dynamite! Boss sounds of 60's style reggae
are exploding in the underground scene once
again and The Aggrolites are front and center
leading the come back under the Axe Records
label. Their new CD entitled "Dirty Reggae"
encompasses all the elements needed to brew up
a solid delivery of this vintage style reggae.
The Aggrolites got their name by fusing the
names of reggae greats the Aggrovators and the
Crystalites. Their sound is influenced by the
Hippy Boys, Tower Of Power, The Clash, The
Upsetters, War, Bleachers, Pioneers, The Who,
The Meters and Jackie Mittoo.
The members of this band have played in
such bands as the Rhythm Doctors, The Vessels,
See Spot, King Apparatus, Dub Street Rockers,
Kingston 10, and have opened for reggae legend
Prince Buster.
The wailing, skanking rhythm guitar of Brian
Dixon intertwined with the plucking leads of
Jesse Wagner laid over a heavy harmonizing
organ give a feel of being in Jamaica.
The vocals on this CD laid down by Wagner
are scratchy, grinding and reminiscent of the
high soulful sound of reggae greats such as
Desmond Decker, Laurel Atkins and Drakar
from The Adjusters.
Thefirstsong on the album, "Hot Spot," starts
out with an intricate drum line by Korey Horn
accompanied by cowbells. It is an audio assault
when the organ, drum and bass bring it on
home. J. Bonner, the bass player, plays punchy,
pounding bass lines that can be felt in the hip.
Wagner's lyrics encompass a combination
of updated nursery songs, romantic lyrics,
proverbs and street wisdom.
"The Stampede," another song on the
album, starts out with an announcement that
the stampede is coming. This musical number
is a well balanced blend of galloping skank,
plucking guitar and heavy organ played by
Roger Rivas together with an up tempo tight
drum and bass, sprinkled with an in your face
trombone section.
"This aint no disco doing the funk, this aint
no hip hop shake your rump," are the lyrics in
another track sure to make you want to cut the
rug, titled "Pop the Trunk."
"We were trying to come up with song ideas
and Deston Berry (Hepcat) suggested 'pop the
trunk' since it's something we always ask our
friends to do, so we came up with T op the
Trunk,'" Wagner said.
This isn't the ordinary overproduced MTV
reggae you're used to, this is soul and though
it won't make the Billboard's top ten, it is great.
You'll need a Cliff bar to groove through this
whole CD.
If you love reggae, ska, or rock steady
then this is truly an album your collection
shouldn't be without. You can pick this
album up at www.theaggrolites.com or at
www.axerecords.com also at Lou's Records and
other great music shops. Enjoy.

BY AMANDA A NDREEN
Pride Staff Writer
On Thursday April 19 in ACD
102 CSUSM hosted a forum honoring the Virginia Tech Tragedy
and to disciiss community concerns related to the issue. Present
at the forum were CSUSM students, faculty and staff and various community members. Each
attendee was given an orange and
maroon ribbon to wear in honor of
Virginia Tech victims. Beginning
at noon, those present for the start
of the forum honored the victims
of the Virginia Tech tragedy that
occurred on Monday, April 16,
with a few moments of silence.
President Karen S. Haynes opened
the forum by saying, "We're obviously all here today as a university community coming together
to share our grief, our concerns of
personal safety, and ask questions
as we go forward. . ." President
Haynes continued by saying, "I'm
sure many of yoù in our campus
community have personal connections to Virginia Tech, and so it
brings another dimension for you ;
to this conversation. I was asked
just now by the press, whether this
was our first or our last step in this
conversation; I'm sure that there
will be many steps, public, formal,
personal and private as we continue to think through the implications. One other public step that
we will take as a university is to
contribute to the Hokies Memorial
Fund that will help for counseling
and other services to the victims
and their families."
Assembled in the f ront of the
room was as a panel of campus
resources to offer information
and answer questions. The panel

by ASI read, "Fund the necessary $65
million for the CSU, freezing fees at the
2006-2007 levels. Fund the $24 million
Student Services Initiative. Restore the
$7 million on outreach." According to the
letter, "These actions will ensure that the

Mart with the usual sized crowd. Today is
not any different than the rest to Marjorie
Mina. As she makes her rounds through
the store, she asks her clients how they are
doing and if they may need any assistance.
Her clients though, are not customers of
Wal-Mart; they are Wal-Mart employees
who have developmental disabilities. As a
job coach for Community Interface Services of Carlsbad, Mina works with eight
higher functioning adults. In Mina's case,
four out of eight of her clients work at WalMart and have overlapping hours so Mina
makes her rounds and works one on one
with her clients during their shifts.
As a job coach, Mina works under Community Interface's Supportive Employment program. Mina began working with
CIS after she graduated from CSUSM in
2004 as a Human Development major. In
the three years that she has been working
for CIS, Mina has learned that her clients
are excited to have a job. "We help them
be a part of the community," Mina said.
"If they take a bus to work, we teach them
what to do if they get lost, or what happens
when there's a disaster at work." When
Mina started working with her client Chris
Deddo, she learned that whenever Deddo
was faced with a question from a customer
to which he did not know the answer, he
would walk away. Mina would then interfere and show Deddo that he could ask
another associate for help. What Mina says
she enjoys the most is, "I can watch them
grow."
Job Coaches at CIS work with clients
who work at Pet Smart, Noah's Ark Learning Center, Wild Animal Park and Target
among other employers.
Two other major departments of CIS
include Supportive Living and Independent
Living.
In 1991 when Kim Larsen graduated
from CSUSM as a Business Major, she
was quickly promoted to associate director. Bruce Willbrant, another alumnus of
CSUSM, was not sure where he would live
after graduation when he found a classifieds ad for Community Interface's Supportive Living department. In the Supportive Living department, employees live with
a roommate who has a developmental disability. Willbrant thought, "I'd get paid and
I'd have a place to live."
Today Willbrant assists his clients as an
Independent Living Supervisor. Willbrant

should anything like that happen on campus.
Chief Hackenberg responded: "We have
plans in place. We have the ability to lock
down areas on campus from dispatch that
would help to isolate any kind of shooter
activity. We also have a system where we
can communicate through our classrooms
under times of duress that will also be helpful in letting people know exactly what the
situation is at the time." Dean Manship
also explained to the audience that there is
a system being finalized this very moment
that would allow the university to send
text messages to students in case of an oncampus emergency or life-threatening situation.
Another main point emphasized in the
forum was that of mental health care, and
Carlene Smith addressed that, ensuring
students that there are services available at
SHCS for students to take advantage of.
In hopes to reach the rest of the student
body, Hackenberg said, "We have a very
safe campus here; that's both by perception
and statistics bear that out, and we always
need to keep that in mind. We want students
to be very aware of any rumors, possibilities, possessions of a weapon on campus, or
anyone who might be planning these types
of things. We just want to encourage them
to report those things to the police department." For more information visit http://

included: Roy Lee (President of ASI), Dean
Manship (Emergency Management Coordinator), Regina Frasca (Director of Risk
Management and Safety), Carlene Smith (a
psychologist from SHCS), CSUSM Police
Chief Ronald Hackenberg, Dr. Pat Worden
(Vice President for Student Affairs),
CSUSM President Karen S. Haynes, and
Gregory Toya (Associate Dean of Students) and a few other representatives from
campus organizations.
The central focus was to first remember
and honor the Virginia Tech tragedy and
to second address the campus community about our own safety precautions in
place and how they are being practiced and
improved.
In addition to offering a safe environment for an open discussion to inquiring
students and staff, the forum also hosted a
guest speaker, an alumnus from Virginia
Tech affiliated with the San Diego chapter of Virginia Tech Alumni. She shared a
poignant testimony about her experience
at Virginia Tech and how the tragedy had
impacted her and her family's life, as her
younger brother currently attends Virginia
Tech.
After the guest speaker, Gregory Toya
opened up the floor for the audience to
ask questions. The first question asked
addressed what plans CSUSM has in place

plans his clients' budget and assists them in
finding and purchasing affordable housing.
When speaking of helping clients attain
jobs, Larsen said, "Our goal is to help them
become more independent. So we may start
out 100% there, at the orientation, interview, and then when they get the hang of it,
we'll start fading out."
Willbrant found his education at CSUSM
to be extremely helpful. "The thing about
San Marcos is that they have this unique
major, Human Development, which is ideal,
along with sociology and psychology."
Denise Sumlin a graduated as Liberal
Studies and Sociology double major with a
focus in Child Development.
As an Independent Living Counselor,
Sumlin says she helps maintain independence. An Independent Living Counselor
may assist clients in daily living such
accessing community resources or gaining
social skills. Sumlin added, "At school, it's
all about the books. It's test after test. Here,
it's nothing but hands on. It all comes back
to you. I thought, I will never use this again
in my life! But I am putting a lot of it to
good use. You do get a chance to use some
of that."
Christine Sheppard, Supported Employment Supervisor, finds that the employees at
CIS enjoy coming to work each day. Sheppard said, "They are highly dedicated to the
service recipients and they have the ability
to cooperate and work well with others."
Shannon Foster works as a Resource
Counselor. In 2000, she graduated from
CSUSM as a double major in Psychology
and Sociology. She spends her days in
the community with her clients. On Mondays, she works out with her clients at the
YMCA, and on certain Fridays, she takes
her clients to the mall for some shopping.
Foster assists her clients in their work and
social skills. "We learn what their dreams
are then we help to accomplish their goals,"
Foster said.
Sally Serrin, a current student of CSUSM
decided to work at CIS in order to fulfill an
internship requirement for her Sociology
course. Serrin says that she's been able to
help where it's needed. Since Serrin began
working at Community Interface, she has
gained experience with doing research for
the company, working with clients and
completing market audit reports among
other things. "Everybody here is so positive," Serrin said, "with a good attitude
about a lot of things."
From RECYCLEMANIA, page 1
and San Diego State University were amongst
the 201 universities in the competition.
CSUSM first entered the competition in 2005
and placed first in Recycling Rate with a rate of
44 percent. The Recycling Rate category compares the weight of recyclables to the weigh of
trash.
In 2006, CSUSM won the Grand Champion
award, placed second in the Per Capita Classic,
and finished first in the Targeted Material - Corrugated Cardboard category. Campuses that
fall into the Grand Champion category demonstrate an excellence in recycling and reducing waste throughout the entire competition.
The Per Capita Classic compares the amount of
recyclables to the number of students in a given
campus. The Targeted Material - Corrugated
Cardboard category compares the amount of
recycled corrugated cardboard to the number of
students in a given campus.
For the 2007 contest, CSUSM brought home
another first place victory in the Grand Champion category. CSUSM also placed second in
the Targeted Material - Corrugated Cardboard
category.
A recycling culture throbs throughout
CSUSM's campus. Cougars consistently recycle spent products in easily accessible bins.
"I recycle every single thing and I make sure
it goes in the right recycle bin," said Liberal
Studies Major Senior DeLacy Brown. "I can be
standing anywhere and turn around and find a
recycling bin."
"It feels good that my school has won the
RecycleMania competition three times in a
row. It's really cool that our school which is in
southern California cares that much about the
environment," said Arts and Technology Major
Freshmen Jake Gossett.
"Recycling is about giving back to the community. Given the fact that Cal State San Marcos
has won three years in a row giving back to the
community has been a major priority to us,"
said Psychology Major Senior Logan Goolsby.
"It makes me glad to go to a school where
students take the extra time to use the blue bins
for recycling. It would feel weird not to recycle
because the bins are everywhere," said Liberal
Studies Major junior Jenny Bigpond.
The contestants for next year's competition will most likely grow in number. Previous
contenders will sharpen their recycling skills.
However, given the current trends, Cougars
have a bright f uture and foreseeable victory in
the RecycleMania 2008 competition.

Acker, and Kat Schulz made up the second
round. The competition was stiff, but Justin and
Sandy devoured their way through huge pieces
of watermelon and won the preliminary rounds.
Rossiter and Betancourt battled against each
other for the championship. Grunting and
growling, Rossiter ripped red chunks of watermelon from its green rind while Betancourt
trailed close behind. The crowd cheered in favor
of Betancourt, but Rossiter gulped his way to
the championship.
Students at the event also took part in signing
a large red poster, among others, that students
will send to Virginia Tech. The poster reads,
"Our deepest sympathies to Virginia Tech from
the students of Cal State San Marcos. Other
posters read, "CSUSM honors Virginia Tech."
Sara Gallegos stated, "The final event that they
will be at is the Wellness Fair on Tuesday the
24th in the Field House. A fter that we are going
to mail the posters to Virginia Tech."
Satterfield said, "My overall reaction was that
it was a success. We got exactly 100 signatures
for our budget letters, which is great! The contest and event was a huge success and I couldn't
have been happier with the result."

Down to Earth: A green day on a green campus
Tuesday; April 24, 2007
THE PRIDE
BY KIM ANDERSON
Pride Staff Writer
Sunday, April 22, was Earth
Day. On this special day designed
to promote environmental awareness, millions across the nation
joined in celebration of Mother
Earth. While some people
renewed their commitment to
reduce, recycle and reuse, others
raised money to f und other environmental causes.
Historically, it was the concern of Senator Gaylord Nelson,
a Democrat from Wisconsin that
sparked our country's environmental awareness. He founded
the first Earth Day in 1970 after
trying to bring environmental
awareness to the American population since 1962.
On envirolink.org, Nelson said,
"Earth Day worked because of
the spontaneous response at the
grassroots level. We had neither
the time nor resources to organize 20 million demonstrators
and the thousands of schools and
local communities that participated. That was the remarkable
thing about Earth Day. It organized itself."
America celebrates Earth Day
on April 22. This day is also
the birthday of Eddie Albert, a
former American television star
and environmental activist; it
also happens to be the birthday
of Julius Stirling Morton, the
founder of Arbor Day.
According to the U.S. government's web site on Earth Day
(earthday.gov), the United States
is much better off than it was in
1970. The air is cleaner, the loss
of wetlands is being reversed, and
other important environmental
legislation continues to improve
conditions.
Though things may be looking up, the Intergovernmental
Panel on Climate Change (IPCC)
recently reported with 100 percent confidence that global
warming is happening, and with
90 percent confidence that it is
because of human interference.
The IPCC is a panel of scientists from different countries and
works closely with the United
Nations. Since the report, the
United States Congress has been
discussing new environmental
legislation that would significantly cut down on the production of greenhouse gases.
Meanwhile, there are many
things that people can do to help
save our planet. The government's Earth Day site suggests
saving energy by making homes
more efficient, turning off appliances and lights when not in use,
purchasing "green power" for the
electricity of houses, insulating
homes, driving less, and replacing incandescent light bulbs with
Energy Star qualified compact
fluorescent light bulbs.
The site also suggests several ways to use less water. It
urges people to use WaterSense
labeled products and programs.
These products, " will p erform
well, help save money, and
encourage innovation in manufacturing." (See http://www.
e pa.gov/watersense/index.htm
for more information on WaterSense.) The site also says to not
to let water r un while shaving
or brushing teeth, to take short
showers instead of baths, to
scrape rather than rinse dishes
before loading into dishwasher,
and to only wash f ull loads of
dishes and laundry. It also recommends buying high efficient
plumbing fixtures, repairing
leaks (one leaky toilet can waste
as much as 200 gallons of water
every day), and watering lawns
and plants during the coolest
p art of the day.
Another way to celebrate
Earth is by using the three R's:
reduce, reuse and recycle. To
reduce, people should consider
buying permanent items instead
of disposables, buying products
with less packaging, and only
«J
buying what they need. Reusing
is as simple as repairing items
as much as possible, using cloth
napkins, and reusing boxes, purchasing and reusing refillable
pens and pencils, and donating
extra things to other people or
charities. Recycling is the third
component. Many things can be
recycled—paper, plastic, bottles,
cardboard, aluminum; but, other
things can and should be recycled
such as electronics, motor oil,
printer cartridges, and even compost food scraps, grass and other
yard clippings.
Cal State San Marcos is particularly earth conscious—our university recently won RecycleMania for the third year in a row by
recycling over 59% of all that we
throw away.
This season, be more environmentally conscious and make
environmental resolutions that
will save money and our earth.
As Captain Planet always says,
"The power is yours!"
Honoring CSUSM's semi-annual Yellow Ribbon Week
BY AMANDA ANDREEN
Pride Staff Writer
Suicide is the 11th leading
cause of death annually in the
United States and is the 2nd
leading cause of death among
college-aged students (according to the American Foundation for Suicide Prevention).
The American- Association of
Suicidology states that about
every 16 minutes, a person in
the U.S. takes their own life,
and every 39 seconds a person
in the U.S. attempts to take
their own life. In 2004, the most
recent complete data statistics,
there were roughly 811,000 suicide attempts, and a total 32,439
suicides. With approximately
80 Americans taking their life
each day and nearly 1,500 more
Americans attempting to do so,
there has got to be an underlying cause for such high statistics, as well as something everyone can do to help. Fortunately
for CSUSM students, and the
greater San Diego community,
there is something that can be
done and a way to help. As it has
been on campus since the spring
of 2003, CSUSM has its very
own Yellow Ribbon Club, which
is connected with a larger organization: Light for Life.
Chris Sanchez, President of the
Yellow Ribbon Club on campus,
encourages students to not only
become more aware about suicide and its warning signs, but
also to participate in the upcoming Yellow Ribbon Week happening on campus April 30-May
2. With multiple events happen-
ing on campus for the upcoming
Yellow Ribbon Week, Sanchez
hopes to educate his peers about
the Yellow Ribbon Campaign,
the Light for Life Foundation
and the Yellow Ribbon Cards
that are available at the events
and online at www.yellowribbon.org.
To kick-off the approaching
Yellow Ribbon Week at CSUSM,
the Yellow Ribbon Club is hosting its first shoe drive. The shoe
drive aims to collect donated
shoes from students for a display
to appear in front ofLibrary Plaza
during Yellow Ribbon Week.
A fter the completion of Yellow
Ribbon Week, the donated shoes
will then be donated to a local
charity. The shoe drive will continue through Friday, April 27,
and the collections areas are at
the ASI Women's Center in FCB
102 and in front of Student Life
and Leadership in Craven 3400.
"We're going to be having
what's now become our semiannual yellow ribbon week
where we go out there and we
want to encourage students to
come see this video we show
called 'The Truth about Suicide.' 'The Truth about Suicide'
is a video put on by the America Foundation for Suicide, the
AFSP. And what they have done
is created this video that outlines
a lot of the symptoms of depression, suicide and they bring the
perspective from real life people
who have either attempted to
take their life, or who have had
friends who have. It is very emotional and I think it's very a ffective," said Sanchez.
The majority of the events
happening
during
Yellow
Ribbon Week will take place on
Monday, April 30, and Tuesday,
May 1, during University Hour
in the Library Plaza. There will
also be two screenings of "The
Truth about Suicide" Wednesday, May 2, one during University Hour in Markstein Hall 107
and the second at 5 p.m. in The
Clarke Field House.
For more information on
mental health and suicide prevention, please visit these websites: www.yellowribbonsd.org,
www.afsp.org, and www.suicidology.org.

�WHERE
IN THE
WORLD IS
A LISON A FFLECK?
BY ALISON AFFLECK
Pride Staff Writer
Paris did not earn the prestigious title
of "most visited place in the world" f or
nothing; it really is nothing short of
spectacular. I picked the less touristy
o ff season to visit, and although I did
not get to personally witness the typical
' Eiffel tower postcard' view, replete with
flowers and lavish greenery, I did get to
see the city covered in a f resh layer of
snow—a real bonus in my view.
It is hard to know where to begin in a
city such as Paris, but I suppose a good
starting point is a good hotel or hostel
location. I decided to stay on the l eft
bank of the Seine in a simple and oddly
decorated hotel that boasted a less than
five minute walk to the E iffel Tower.
Indeed the tiny hotel was - very inventively' called 'La Tour E iffel.' An added
bonu%to th% hotel was its proximity,, to
the métro, which in my opinion is something that a visitor to Paris should pick
as a priority when selecting a hotel; you
< will «pend a great* deal-of time cruising the odoriferous, bustling lines and it
really is a great way to get a feel for the
local life. Needless to say, it is advisable
to take advantage of the ' Paris Visite'
travel cards that o ffer unlimited use of
the métro and buses within a specified
t ime period.
D uring my stay in Paris, I did not
adhere to a rigid schedule; instead I
picked an area of interest and wandered
around seeing what grabbed my fancy.
Although I wanted to see all the usual
suspects, I planned to spend a great deal
of time in the local eateries and coffee
shops. Navigating around the l eft bank
in the gently falling snow, I visited
' L 'Hôtel des Invalides'—a huge construction orchestrated by Louis X IV t o house
wounded soldiers. Les Invalides i s v ery
easy to spot due to its unmistakable gold
dome. However, the luxury does not end
there—wait till you see Napoléon's massive red sarcophagus housed inside the
Eglise du Dôme and the amazing array
of weaponry housed in the Musée de
L'armée. A gentle stroll along the bank of
the lazily flowing river Seine later, and I
found myself exploring Notre Dame and
Sainte Chapelle in the Isle de la Cité;
the old historical heart of Paris. Notre
Dame is incredible with its huge domed
roof enveloping the wonderful scent that
all ancient buildings have: that of sweet
earth and centuries of candle burning.
The Cathedral façade itself is amazing,
as are the famous cheeky gargoyles that
line the panorama o fParis. Of course the
view requires a long walk up the many
flights of stairs, but it is well worth it.
As I crossed over the Seine via the
famous Pont Neuf ('New Bridge'), I was
tempted to pay a visit to the Louvre,
t hankfully I decided against it. To f ully
appreciate the cornucopia of a rtifacts
stashed within the Louvre, or the converted train station that is the Musée
d'Orsay, I definitely recommend devoting the better part of a day to really submerse oneself. Of course, in addition to
the more familiar, Paris has many other
exhibits for the discerning art lover to
wander around; indeed there is j ust so
much to see in the whole city. Climb
the Arc de Triomphe and gaze down the
sparkling Champs Elysées; For shopping, visit the b eautiful 'Art Nouveau'
Galleries Lafayette or take the métro to
the Abbesses stop and stroll the narrow
streets of Montmartre; here you will also
find the old white church Sacré Coeur,
the two remaining Moulins (windmills)
of Paris and of course the nearby red
light district of Pigali which contains the
famous Moulin Rouge—just be ready to
pay about $100 to see the show! I also
highly recommend a trip to the ancient
Catacombs, a fhuge underground collection of human bones, complete with philosophical French signposts. It is easily
reached f rom the Denfert-Rochereau
métro station. In all, a trip to Paris is
immensely satisfying in every regard,
f rom the macabre to the enlightening;
' The City of Light' truly has something
for everyone.

Padres update
BY JEREMY ALBERS
Pride Staff Writer
The major league baseball schedule has
been a bit strange early on. Week three of
the Padres schedule saw them play consecutivetwo-game series, first in Chicago
t& face-the'Gubsv then b ackhome t omeet
the A rizona Diamondbacks. It is unusual
t o take on an opponent f or a two game
set. Series are generally three games and
sometimes four. The shortened series l eft
the Padres t o rack u p f requent flier miles
in a hurry. A fter leaving L.A., dropping
two of t hree to the Dodgers, the padres
flew to the windy city for two days and
back t o the west coast for two against the
D-backs. Then they flew to Coors field
in Colorado t o resume a more fashionable three-game series against the Rockies. The Padres have played eight days in
a row of a ten day stint without a break.
Since the Friday the 13th stomping at
Los Angeles the Friars have gone 4-3
to stand at 10 w ins and 7 losses through
April 20.
Saturday, April 14 was another gem
thrown by Padres ace right-hander Jake
Peavy. O r^e again Peavy was dealing,
giving u p only one r un on three hits in
seven innings. He improved h is record
to 5 -0 in h is last six outings against the
rival Dodgers. T he p erformance was
large since the Padres were blitzed 9-1
the night before. The o ffense was provided by B rian Giles, who homered and
drove in two, and new 3B Kevin Kouzriianoff who hit his first home r un as a
Padre in the f ourth i nning o ff Dodger
pitcher Jason Schmidt. The following
day Chavez Ravine proved a tough place
t o play as the Padres dropped the series
by losing. Left-hander Randy Wolf was
staked to t hree r uns early and went on
to beat Padres and Chris Young 9-3. The
Sunday night game was seen on ESPN
and highlighted by the 60th anniversary
of Jackie Robinson breaking t he color
barrier in MLB. Robinson played for the
Dodgers while they were still in Brooklyn and was elected t o the Hall of Fame
in 1962.
Traveling to Chicago t o play t he Cubs
for two games seemed simple enough.
The Padres were 7-0 against the Cubs
last year but spent huge dollars in the
f ree agent market to upgrade their squad.
In game one, Padres pitcher Clay Hensley continued h is struggles and the Friars
lost 12-4. The Cubs hit three home rims
while the Padres hit one; a ninth inning
t hree-run shot by Marcus Giles. In game
two, Greg Maddux took the hill in his
old stomping grounds, Maddux had twotours in Chicago pitching a total of 10
years at Wrigley Field. Maddux pitched
well, giving u p three r uns in five innings
and keeping the Padres in it. There was
not a r un scored by either team f rom the
fifth through the fourteenth when G eoff
Blum poked a double that scooted under
Cubs LF Jacque Jones (San Diego High)
glove allowing Khalil Greene to score
the game winning r un. Trevor H offman
closed the door on the series with his
third save of the season in the bottom of
the fourteenth.
The travel-weary Padres came home
for two against the Diamondbacks hoping
t o rest the bullpen. L efty David Wells
(Point Loma High) matched u p with last
year's Cy Young award winner Brandon Webb. The Padres had opportunities
early but failed to capitalize and Webb
went on to set a career high by striking
out 13. Wells pitched great, giving u p
t hree hits and a walk in seven innings.
A 2-2 lasted till the t welfth when the D backs scored three r uns o ff Mike Thompson. The pitching staff was taxed a fter
the two games and 26 innings sandwiching a flight f rom Chicago to San Diego.
Jake Peavy took the mound in game two
of the series and dominated with his arm
and his bat. Peavy hit a two r un triple in
the third inning to highlight seven early
Padres r uns and celebrate his third win of
the year, winning 11-6. SS Khalil Greene
and C Rob Bowen hit home r uns in the
seventh inning to extend the lead a fter
the Diamondbacks had battled back to
make it a two r un game.
A series in Colorado kicked off with
an overpowering performance by Chris
Young of the Padres. He simply mowed
through the Rockies lineup allowing one
r un on f our hits while fanning seven in
his seven innings of work. IB Adrian
Gonzalez continued to lead the Padres
offense by swatting a 447 foot bomb to
right center. The Padres won 11-1 in the
s eries opener.

�Jock Talk With Josh: NBA picks revisited
BY JOSH SANDOVAL
Pride Staff Writer
Back
on
October 31, five
scary looking
guys appeared
in this column.
Their
names
were Fernando
Brown,
Paul
Baimbridge, Mike Millburn,
Kyle Trembley, and Josh Sandoval. Their mission: to predict
what was going to happen in the
2006-2007 NBA season.
Now that the NBA season has
concluded, and the playoffs are
underway I figured this was the
time to look back on those predictions and talk a little bit about
the post-season.
The N ostradamus . award
goes t o Paul for predicting the
Toronto Raptors as the Most
Improved Team. W hen he sent
that pick to me I accused h im of
being d runk. I feel safe saying
that Paul is the only p erson in
the world who thought t he R aptors would b e good. The t eam
n orth of the border is t he No. 3
seed in the E astern C onference
f acing the No. 6 seeded New
Jersey Nets.
The Captain Obvious award
goes to Mike for predicting t he
New York Knicks as the Most
Disappointing
Team.
Even
though Mike was the only one of
u s to predict the 33-49 season, I
still have t o tease h im about the
ease of that pick.
The Take Back award goes to
Fernando for picking the Clippers
to go to the Western Conference
finals. The C lip Show finishes
two games back of the Golden
State Warriors for the final spot
in the playoffs.
The Most Likely to Happen
award also goes to Fernando,
since he did predict the Suns
to beat the Pistons in the NBA
Championship. The Pistons are
the No. 1 seed in the East and
the Suns are the No. 2 seed in the
West.
The Overzealous award goes
to me for picking the New Jersey
Nets over the Dallas Mavericks
in the NBA Championship. The
Nets have a lot of talent with
Jason Kidd, Vince Carter and
Richard Jefferson, but only finished 41-41 whereas the Mavericks had the best record in the
NBA this season at 67-15.
The Mike and Mike award goes
t o Mike for picking Cleveland
Cavaliers coach Mike Brown as
the N BA Coach of the Year. The
Cavaliers finished with the same
record of 50-32 that they had the
previous season, but they went
i rr kJB
mS
' Wh' 1
Write l lllï KMjyi
^
f rom 14 games back and the No.
4 seed to only three games back
and the No. 2 seed this season. I
still t hink Mike only picked Mike
because they share the same first
name.
The Should Happen But
Won't award will be split in half
with one half going to Paul and
one half going to me for picking Kobe Bryant as the regular
season MVP. Kobe's supporting cast, or lack there-of, fell
apart this season. Lamar Odom,
Luke Walton, Chris M ihm, and
Kwame Brown all missed time
due to injuries and Kobe still got
the Lakers into the playoffs.
The Joey Crawford Hater
award goes t o Kyle because Kyle
made a lot of his picks revolving
around the Spurs. NBA referee
Joey Crawford threw Duncan
out of a game towards the end of
the season because Duncan was
laughing on the bench. Crawford
then threatened D uncan to a fight.
NBA commissioner David Stern
suspended Crawford and r umor
is that Crawford's career may b e
over. Duncan, meanwhile is worried that Crawford's cronies in
the NBA ref society are going to
punish his Spurs team. Kyle had
the Spurs beating the Mavericks
in the Western Finals and then
the Heat in the N BA Championship and had D uncan w inning the
MVP.
Ifyou're keeping score at home,
the final award is: Kyle - 1, Paul
- 1.5, Me - 1.5, Fernando - 2,
Mike-2.
Now for my revised N BA playoff picks. The Suns will beat the
Pistons in the N BA Finals with
Steve Nash claiming MVP.

�CSUSM theater review: "The Bald Soprano"
T he bald
#•###
the beautiful
BY SOPHIE B RINK
Pride Staff Writer
"Don't t ry t o follow the plot," the ticket
seller warned m e with a smile. "There is
no plot." With these words echoing in my
mind, I settled in t o watch the last performance of " The Bald Soprano," presented
by the Visual and P erforming A rts Department here at Cal State San Marcos.
I confess I was predisposed t o be disappointed by t he play - not because I don't
have faith in t he VPA t o deliver the goods,
but because I am usually suspicious of
anything which calls itself an "anti-play
or parody." I o ften f ind such pieces less
humorous t han depressingly misanthropic.
"The Bald Soprano," written by Eugene
Ionesco, is an odd combination of wit and
misanthropy which, though it didn't make
me laugh out loud, amused me and pro-

Lucia D. Lopez (right) as Mrs. Martin.
vided some food for thought.
Eugene Ionesco was one of the fathers
of absurdist theater. Born in Romania in
1909, Ionesco grew u p in Paris. There he
was employed a s a teacher, translator and
proofreader, and it was only at the age of
39 that Ionesco tried h is hand at play writing. "The Bald Soprano," Ionesco's first
play, was p erformed in 1950. Ionesco's
experience learning English f rom a phrase
book provided the inspiration for the piece.
He found that dialogue within the phrase
book, when read as though one were reading a novel, was intriguing in its f ragmentary and absurd nature.
The meaning in "The Bald Soprano"
derives f rom the fact that the dialogue
itself has no meaning. The actors spout o ff
insipid remarks that are completely u nrelated to those of the person t o whom they
are speaking. Conversation, then, ceases
to connect the parties who are conversing,
a s they talk a lot but say little.
C areful consideration seemed t o have
b een t aken by t he cast and crew of t his
p erformance t o make t his play appear
applicable t o t oday's A merican society
while r etaining something of the era in
which it was w ritten. The result was a
cross-generational amalgamation which
lent itself b eautifully t o t he absurdity of
t he play. The set was spare, containing
bits of f urniture that could have easily
existed in 1950s France as in 2007 America, except for multiple television sets
showing images of President Bush and

Directed by Marcos Martinez, the cast of
"The Bald Soprano" was divided into two
- one first cast playing April 13, 14, and
20, the second playing April 12,19, and 21.
Cast two's Jessica Swan made a commendable t urn as the facetious Mrs. Smith, while
Omar Yanez b eautifully deadpanned as
her staid husband. The irrepressible Mrs.
M artin was cheekily p erformed by Lucia
D. Lopez, and Anthony Buonocore was
likable as her easily excitable husband.
Admirably, Shane Barksdaie managed
t o stay in character as t he ridiculous Fire
Chief without cracking a smile. Although
Ionesco's dialogue does nothing t o flesh
out the characters, as this is hardly a character-driven piece, the actors did a nice j ob
of bringing life t o their roles. Without the
spark of life in those who t ry desperately
t o communicate, I do not t hink Ionesco's
statement about the futility of h uman communication would have rang as t rue as it
did during the April 21 p erformance of
"The Bald Soprano."

Horror
BY RICHARD ESPERTI
Pride Staff Writer
"Vacancy" delivers a h eart throbbing
and s uspenseful t hrill ride capable of leaving audiences in fear of overnight stays
in small town motels. The f ilm's uncharacteristic choice of actors, no ditzy and
defenseless starlets which is so typical of
slasher-films, makes for a truly realistic
t errifying horror film.

David and Amy enter the motel to the

the office in aviator glasses and an almost
N orman Bates demeanor. I n all of h is

the Foxes t o stay overnight at the Pinewood Motel until m orning when the town

San Diego brewed beers never cease
to amaze me. This week I picked
another local spot to check out.
For any San Diegan the Stone
Brewery is considered local,
but for u s Cougars the Stone
Brewery and World Bistro is
our neighbor. Not but five
minutes f rom our campus is
one of the most impressive
breweries I have been t o yet.
The list of beers is almost
endless, so you can imagine
how hard it was t o choose
one. But I did, and t his
week's Beer of the Week is
the Stone Smoked Porter.
A porter-type beer is much
darker then a pale ale or brew
of that sort. But it is not as
black as a stout beer. At the
brewery the color of this beer is
known as a dark mahogany. But it
j ust looked dark brown to me. It is
a smoked porter due to the amount of
peat-smoked specialty malt Stone uses.
Another interesting fact, which seems
to be a trend at the brewery, is that this
beer among others is 100% natural.
N o additives, no chemicals, no
preservatives, no pasteurization, and no adjuncts (which
is a fancy word for no rice or
corn).
I prepared myself for a very
bitter beer with a strong bite as it went down. But
it was much more subtle than the color led me to
believe. My first thought was that this brew is very
f ull bodied and rich but not bitter. During the
first couple of gulps, I had a hard time
distinguishing all of the flavors. But
as I got about half-way done with
the glass, I could continuously taste
chocolate and c offee flavors and a
distinct smoky flavor. Even with all
that flavor there w as no bitter taste
lingering on the back of my tongue.
This is a beer t hat I would recommend trying.
The Stone Brewery and World
Bistro do not j ust o ffer some of the
world's finest beers but also some
incredible food. I enjoyed their
famous Mac a nd Beer Cheese,
which was incredible. But on a
college budget it looks like I will
be eating o ff the dollar menu for the
rest of the week. I f you happen to
have a lot of extra cash and you want to
t ry some interesting food you can order
anything f rom mac and cheese to duck
tacos.
If you have not yet experienced Stone
Brewery and World Bistro I recommend it
especially i f consider your self a connoisseur
of beer. N ot only can you stimulate your palette
but you can get a tour of the facilities. Stonef
brewery is located at 1999 C itracado^
Parkway, EsCoriJkj^ CA 92029. O r |

The fast approáching w arm
summer days will call for a
suitable beverage, one that will
lend itself well t o outdoor cocktail
parties, when t he heat of t he sun
meets the cool of the sea, when hues
of dusty rose and mouth-watering
orange paint the sky.
You could reach f or a margarita,
a daiquiri, blended smooth and
frosty, or a rosy sangría, sweet
and f ruity and refreshing. But
why not choose the b uzz less
traveled, engage your taste
buds in a tango with the sweet
stylings of the Orange Drop M artini?
The Orange Drop M artini is a glowing glass of p ure ambrosia. One sip of the soothing sweetness of t his beverage involves
grazing your lips over the sugared r im, touching your tongue
to the seemingly luminiferous liquid, and inhaling the scent of
orange groves - orange groves which happen t o flourish within
Willy Wonka's Chocolate F actor^ as t his is a fantasy-inducing
d rink, a little drop of C andyXahdfor the m ature audience that
remains young at heart.
To compose your own Omnge Drop M artini, ¡add 2 ounces
.of vanilla vodka, 3/4 ounce of orange liqueur - such as Grand
M arnier/lftaca, or Triple
cocktaiFshaker a nd finish
with a healthy dose of freshly squeezed orange juice. Shake,
strain, serve in a m artini glass and enjoy!
