The American Heart Association's HeartRide is sponsored locally by Escondido Bicycles, Brecht BMW, Smith & NephewDonjoy Inc., Associated Students of CSUSM, The Pepsi Corporation and Eddie B's Cycling World and Fitness Camps. This non-competitive, just-for-fun event is expected to draw participants young and old. Cyclists are encouraged to raise money forridingthe course by asking friends and coworkers for contributions. Dollars raised from this event will support cardiovascular research and community education programs sponsored by the American Heart Association. "Cardiovascular diseases are America's No. 1 killers,' said Honorary Chairman Scott 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 has a 35 and 50 mile ride to the coast. HeartRide also plans to incorporate a mountain bike trail for any off-road enthusiasts.

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 Conflicting policies, outdated regulations, sluggish approval process and insensitive Washington bureaucrats are hampering efforts to build the information highway.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. fl.S.

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.

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. �CSUSM's Presidential Service Award Winners Leticia Iglesias with family members and other student award recipients.

And forcing citizens to look at each other and treat one another as Lawrence M. Ludlow K Franklin 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. David Michael Bruno I do believe we are setting our sights too , high heape on our CSUSM campus. I t's time -fof Ml of us to lower our sights, at least temporarily, to see the mess that is under our feet. The concrete plazas, walkways, decks and stairways, are showing signs of the worst disregard for civility, manners and aesthetics that any college campus, especially such a new one, should be forced to exhibit. I t's not only smokers, and spitters, but the gum chewers as well. Is it just another way to be"COOL" or "RAD"? I'll bet your parents said that we all have a responsibility "not to foul our nest." Or perhaps you had to be too neat at home, so now you're rebelling. Do you throw lit cigarettes from your car windows (a fine if you're caught, maybe a destructive fire if you're not)? Do you drop gum and gum wrappers wherever you travel (a sign of adolescence, not adulthood)? Come on, people, we are 8ffeaStcollege juniors here at San Marcos. Do we need to translate this message into Japanese or Spanish, fifth-grade English or "valley-girl" and put it on :si^fts '2ilI ovdf campus? Or can you al make a conscious, adult decision to snuff out the cigs in sand or use some other safe disposal method. And throw the damn gum in the trash, not the recyling bins, the trash!

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. flower -Like aKeezefloatiiiJ ronger p et^s'tebsq f^iw fit l IptilMy a stemi^j lill f | l S S i l l ! I I weak tl "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.

Congratulations! 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. • Room available to serious, mature student on ranch in Escondido. References required. Call 745-6506.

Youths were recognized for their volunteer and leadership efforts to make North County a better place. The President's Youth Service Awards were created by the White House Office of National Service and the Corporation of National and Community Service. Because of CSUSM's commitment to community service, the University was authorized to assist in identifying those young people whose volunteer efforts are a model for all. Each year CSUSM honors young people, ages 5-22, with the President's Awards or the National Award to recognize meaningful service to the community. The awards, presented by Provost Richard Millman, were in four age categories: 5-8 years, 9-13 years, 14-17 years, and 1822 years. The awards were designed to recognize voluntary, non-paid, community service and to recognize hands-on service. Criteria used—exemplary achievement, ongoing involvement, community need, and building a service ethic. The National Awards honor students who demonstrate meaningful community service accomplished at a level slightly less exacting than the President's Award. Recipients receive a sculpted pin which carries the Great Seal of the United States along with a handsomely designed certificate that is signed by President Clinton. ^n^^SSMU Interest V t p i t o Poster P Staff Writer f l f i W g f, ; Friday, April 22,1994 M $ CSUSM will draw international acaof : A4pies~ offers summer wbric-: a n i i i i a t : - o nN r 4h-Sjpani$h for Y&un^ Readers in j November.

However, you may not be aware of the major funding problems for Student Health Services within the CSU system that have occurred in the past few years. There have been drastic reductions in funding and a few of the larger health services were very close to having to cease operations. The Student Health Advisory Board has asked that I write an article to discuss the history of the funding problems and how other campuses have moved to alleviate the problem. The vast majority of campuses have instituted a mandatory Health Services Fee. This fee should not be confused with the $3 Health FacilitiesFeealreadyinplace. The Health Facilities Fee does not contribute to ongoing operations of the Student Health Service. This f ee is controlled by the Chancellor's Office can only be used for building or renovation of CSU Health Services. Actually, 17 of the 20 campuses have a mandatory Health Fee ranging from $20 to $59 per semester in 1993/94. This fee accounts for 40% to 100% of the funding for Student Health Services throughout the system. This mandatory fee allows for at least basic services to be continued at all the campuses and at some it allows for augmented or special services to be performed at no additional charge. Itisalsoofinteresttonotethat throughout the country, Health Services Fees are at a much higher level. A recent survey revealed an average fee of $84 per semester. Here at CSUSM we have been fortunate that even in the face of decreasing budget throughout the system, the University has continued to grow. The planners also were able to anticipate a need for Student Health Services and provided funding for space, equipment, and the initial staff to provide services. The result is, I believe, a very nice facility appropriately equipped and providing high quality primary care and preventive health services. Likewise, we continue to provide and develop campus-wide health education including a Peer Health Education program. At this time, the funding projection for CSUSM Student Health Services for 1994/ 95 will be at the same level as 1993/94. In order to provide the same level of service as well as to continue expanding services, a mandatory Student Health Fee is necessary. The Student Health Advisory Board has endorsed the concept of this fee, Theywantthe general student population to be informed. An open forum on this matter will be held on Tuesday, May 3rd from 3 PM to 4:30 PM in ACD305. Student Health Services has received consistent praise for its programs and services by students. Student Health Services exists to provide high quality primary care and preventive services and encourages high level student involvement in those services. We encourage you to become familiar with Student Health Services and utilize the services you are funding.

Notes On Saturday, April 16,theStudentHealth Advisory Board volunteers participated in the International Day of the Family at Walnut Grove Park in San Marcos. They sponsored a food and nutrition booth. The volunteers estimated that they made over 200 healthy low-fat chicken and vegetarian fajitas, and sold 250 juice snow cones. Also, they gave out free brochures and information about healthy nutrition and reducing dietary cholesterol. The all-day event drew a crowd of over 4000 people, and had over 50 programs distributing information on community services. There were numerous arts and crafts and children's activity booths, as well as youth musical and dramatic performances. This free annual event was sponsored by the San Marcos Family Care Commission.

For f urther i nformation, contact Claire Most people d on't realize how lucky we are to live in the age where counting fat grams corresponds with the explosion of fatfree products available today. Back in my mother's day being on a diet consisted of boring and bland foods such as melba toast, cottage cheese, and celery-YUCK! I am a connoisseur of fat-free foods that tantalize the taste buds. I am forever searching for a new exciting product that I can promote to my friends. Of all the products I have tried, certain ones stand out above the rest and I would like to pass this information on to you. Here is a little backround . . . A person's diet should consist of about 20-30 grams of fat per day and not any more. The logic behind watching fat grams is that gram for gram, fat has more calories than protein or carbohydrates. A gram of fat is 9 calories while a gram of carbohydrates is just 4 calories. This definitely makes a difference when you add up the calories. The bottom line is to consume the equivalent or less than the calories expended. Since carbohydrates are lower in calories, they help to keep caloric count down. The body stores carbohydrates in the muscles for up to 36 hours so they don't have to be utilized immediately. Finally, another fact in favor of carbohydrates is that it takes 32 steps for the body to turn carbohydrates into fat whereas fat is only three small steps to the thighs. One word of caution when you begin the journey into fat-free heaven—watch out for consuming too many empty calories. Some foods are low in fat and high in nutrients whereas other foods are low in fat and void of nutrients. These empty-calorie foods make great alternatives for high-fat snacks and desserts but should not be a part of a daily diet. So here it goes...My favorite yogurt is made by Yoplait Light. It is only 90 calories a serving and is so creamy that you feel guilty. Some of the betterflavorsare tropical banana and apricot mango. Yoplait also makes a crunch light which has fun toppings like granola. As far as snacks go, if you haven't tried Louis' baked tortilla or potato chips you will be in for a nice surprise. They come in many flavors like ranch or barbecue. Be careful because you can't stop at just one. Pretzels have always been low or fat free and Harry's sourdough are spectacular! Often oil-free salad dressings don't do much to liven up lettuce, but I found two that do. Bernstein's makes a line of 98 percent fat free salad dressings that are packed with pizazz. Try the Parmesan Ranch. S&W Vintage Light blush wine vinaigrette is light and tangy and tastes homemade. For the sweet tooth in all of us, Antenna's Double Fat Free Fudge Brownies are soooo delicious! These would cure any chocolate craving. Snack Well's lowfat cookie assortments are also good. My favorite are the new double fudge. Don't forget to try Nabisco's fat free Fig Newton that also comes in fruit flavors such as cranberry. It was difficult limiting some of my favorite fat-free products but it is a start. I hope the items mentioned pave the path to healthier eating. Afinalword of caution—always look at the fat and calorie count in regards to serving size. Often times, manufacturers like to suggest false claims. The USDA is working on new regulations for labeling so that the serving size and claims will be realistic and resemble the truth.

Ivalee Clark Director Support Services To promote the awareness of the recycling program, the Solid Waste Reduction Planning Committee, together with Mashburn Waste and Recycling Services, sponsored a "Dumpster Dive," more formally known as a waste characterization, on March 10. Even though CSUSM has an aggressive recycling program in place, the "dive" was held to see how CSUSM's model university recycling program is working and to possibly identify additional items which can be diverted from going to the landfill. Approximately 50 participants gathered for pizza and cokes prior to sorting through the trash. The group was divided into teams of three.. two sorted and one wrote down items being found in the trash. Containers for recovered recyclables were available along with trash cans to categorize the actual waste products. When the sorting was completed, the categorized materials were weighed. Here is what we found: RECYCLABLE MATERIAL LBS.

That is why most men dread it —George Bernard Shaw Cliche in the Classroom Thomas Lee Huntington Staff Writer The Vista Unified School District has garnered nationwide publicity, first for requiring a discussion of creationism in science classrooms that teach evolution, and now for supporting the controversial Sex Respect curriculum. Sex Respect is a program where students in health classes are taught the Value of abstinence and the dangers of premarital sex. Slogans such as "Do the right thing, wait for thering,""Pet your dog, not your date," and "Control your urging, be a virgin" are the educational cornerstones of the Sex Respect policy. Condoms or other forms of birth control are downplayed as dangerous and not worth discussing. Deidre Holliday, theringleaderof the group of three conservative Christians (including Gregy Tyndall and Joyce Lee) that makes up the majority of the board, has been viciously attacked in the local press and a recall effort is underway to remove all three from the board in a November vote. The Vista Teachers Union, though reticent to jump into the fray, recently voted overwhelmingly to support the recall. Signatures are being collected, and it should soon be clear whether or not the issue will go before a public vote. What in the world has happened to the sleepy, retirement community of Vista? Long renowned for a fine public school system that consistently produced high AP pass and college acceptance rates, the Vista Unified School District has suddenly become a nationwide symbol of religious political activism that blurs the separation between church and state. A recall effort will be costly andrisky,but it is undeniably necessary to preserve not only the national reputation of the Vista School District but also the future of Vista's children. Holliday was elected in 1990 in what many have characterized as a "stealth" campaign that focused on area churches and religious gatherings and eschewed traditional candidate forums. At the time of her election, I was a Vista High senior and Editor of the school paper and had the opportunity Letters to the Editor Conroy's Comments on Illegals Refreshing Dear Editor: Thanksforrunning the letter from Assemblyman Mickey Conroy about his bill to prevent illegal aliens from enrolling in state universities and colleges. This was a refreshing change in news coming from CSUSM recently. The problem of illegal aliens is severe. Some facts: • According to a recent report by SDSU professors for State Seantor Bill Craven, illegals cost county taxpayers a net of $244 million yearly for courts, schools, welfare and other benefits. Craven is to be commended for issuing this report. • Illegals are the fastest growing segment of state and federal prisoners. • It costs state taxpayers over $600 million to educate illegals each year; Mountain Empire schools were recently found by the state auditor to have fraudulently enrolled hundreds of Mexican nationals. • Illegals yearly receive over $800million in fraudulent medical payments, according to a report from the County MediCal Fraud task force; yet Americans are turned away. Our nation must defend its borders, it it is to remain a sovereign nation. Ralph W. Ballmer, MSEE San Jose State Univ. Questions Witnesses to "Conduct" Dear Editor: In regards to your article, "Conduct Unbecoming a Faculty Member... or anyone to interview Holliday. Though little was known of her at the time, there were intense murmuring about her Christian leanings. I found her to be extremely polite and thoughtful, answering questions with articulate, intelligent responses. She insisted that she wanted only to leave sex education up to individual families, and to confine schools to teaching educational basics. She did nothing to hide her Christian faith. I had the impression that Mrs. Holliday was not a religious radical but a passionate, moderate citizen. I was wrong. The actions of the school board in the past 4 years indicate beyond a shadow of a doubt that beneath that gentle facade lurks an unavowed enemy of public education with no respect for cultural diversity, the scientific community, the professional judgment of hard-working teachers, or the Constitution. Contrary to Holliday's stated aim of leaving moral education up to individual families, the board has engaged in exactly the kind of cultural arrogance and narrowminded hypocrisy that it should be the aim of any decent liberal education to abolish. The logic behind the Sex Respect policy is even more dangerous. At a time when teen pregnancy and the fatal threat of AIDS make irresponsible attitudes towards sexual activity potentially deadly, it is preposterous to cloak a discussion about teenage sexuality in this kind of simpleminded, cliched moralism. Students need straight answers and clearheaded advice, not preaching and condescension. Abstinence should certainly be presented as the only sure way to avoid AIDS or pregnancy, but it is morally repugnant to avoid a detailed discussion of methods of birth control at a time when the propert use of a condom could very easily mean the difference between life and death. This is not to say that Holliday and her hit squad are not well-intentioned. But the Vista School Board has unfortunately chosen the tools of exclusion, religious bigotry and fear. The citizens of Vista should spare no time nor expense at putting an immediate stop to this illegal, immoral and unethical political escapade. Nothing less than the future of our children depends upon it. else," I question how many people were witness to this occurrence. I also wonder whose decision it was to print Dr. Seleski's name, and was there any effort contacting Dr. Seleski before publication to confirm the story? Though I do not condone rude behavior on the part of faculty, staff and students, I question the adversarial tone of the article. For example, "Seleski said she knew why it (Lexis/Nexis) was down, but continued to complain." This statement is vague and lends no information to the article other than to slander Dr. Seleski. If I, a casual reader, can pick out the bias in this article, what would the average San Marcos citizen think of this university. I hope you take this into consideration when you publish other critical articles about faculty, staff and students. Gwenn Young lecture. Another time, in a different class, a student basically told the teacher to get on with the lecture. Firstly, these comments are not only uncalled for, but reflect badly on the student body. A student who has yet to achieve a bachelor's degree has a lot of nerve commenting on the performance of a person who has obtained Ph.D. caliber. Secondly, these comments create an embarrassing atmosphere in class. These teachers have to "suck it up" in the interest of professionalism, but it obviously hurts their feelings. Not only that, but the more considerate students feel the need to apologize for the rude behavior of these people. We hope hope this letter will make students think twice about their behavior in class and give professors the respect they warrant.

Set in the plains and cities of Argentina, La Perla is a tale of memory and yearning that unfolds with seductive energy. At the center of La Perla is a search for family, a search for history, and a search for love: searches that reveal not only truths of the heart but also truths about the land that is Argentina. La Perla was inspired by the actor's return to his homeland after a 20-year absence. Ravetto's return to Argentina began as a quest to learn more about an aunt that he never knew; but while there, he encountered both the truths of love and the loss that continue to haunt his own family and the pain of memory and silence that continues to haunt the politics of contemporary Argentina.

The photographs of local and visiting jazz musicians were taken during performances in San Diego. Mr. Rudee, who served on the San Diego Jazz Festival's board of directors, took some of the photos in night clubs, but most were taken at performances of either the SD Jazz Festival or the Jazz Society of Lower California. Rudee stated that, "Photography and jazz have artistic elements in common. Of all musical forms, jazz places the highest emphasis on instantaneous, intuitive improvisation. The term 'instrument of intuition', which has been used to describe the camera could just as well apply to the jazz soloist. The exhibit is located in the university library, on the third floor of Craven Hall. Please join the Library Arts Committee at a reception for the opening of Rudee's show . Jazz musicians Gunnar Biggs, John Harris and Bob Boss will play jazz in the library's courtyard on Friday, April 22 from 3:15 to 3:45 PM. The reception is from 3-4:30. The 25-photo exhibit celebrates local and visiting jazz musicians. The exhibit is free and open to the public during regular library hours: Mon.-Thur. 8 AM to 9 PM, Fri. 8AM to 4 PM, and Sat. 10AM to 4PM. For more information, call Marge Hohenberger 752-4350.

Or maybe it's the smiling faces and warmth of the o wners, Sandra and Edgar Schuermann. Along with the traditional coffee drinks Artista offers some unusual ones. Cafe Amore—French vanilla ice cream topped with hot espresso, chocolate syrup, j whipped cream dusted with amaretto cookies, is one of Sandra's favorites. Artista also offers a unique variety of sandwiches made on fresh-baked croissants or foccacia bread. What gives Artista a feel of being "alive?"

Youth, innocence, hope, and the American Dream. t Emerald City. In a recent L.A. Times Book Review, a friend of the late, great, gutter poet, Charles Bukowski, recalled the moment he heard of the writer's death. He was riding in his car when a Bukowski poem came on the radio. At first, he was pleasantly surprised to hear his friend's work, but then he realized that he was listening to an AM station. Any time such subversive work invaded AM airwaves, he thought, it couldn't be a good sign. Bukowski, of course, was the prototypical literary renegade, far too obscene and daring for mainstream culture— until his death, that is. I had a simitar experience at 12:30 on a sunny California Friday afternoon. I unexpectedly received the day off from work and was leisurely driving by the beach with a friend when I heard the opening chords of Nirvana's "Rape Me" blaringfroman otherwise tame AM news station. The "godfather of grunge," as the Barbie doll newswoman characterized Kurt Cobain, had been found dead that morning from a self-inflicted gunshot wound at his Seattle home. The "Generation X spokesman," Barbie reported, had struggled with heroin addiction and severe depression. His cryptic suicide note, publicly read a few days later by Cobain's wife and fellow musician, Courtney Love, spoke of losing excitement for life, of feeling guilty for "faking it." Quoting Neil Young, Cobain wrote, "It's better to burn out than to fade away." Kurt Cobain was not a spokesman for my generation, and the media's unrelenting need to characterize him as such was intellectually lazy and artistically unfair. He was a confused, depressed, probably mentally ill, but enormously talented sognwriter who felt immense uneasiness and frustration about the fame unleashed upon his Seattle garage band after "Smells Like Teen Spirit" suddenly became some kind of generational anthem. It was always obvious that music served as an intense and genuine form of aesthetic therapy for the "troubled" poet. Nirvana's themes were alienation, self-loathing, and displacement— the thematic territory of every angry punk band OuAurt StudentS fromthe Sex Pistols to Pearl Jam, But what set Nirvana apart from the beginning was Cobain's haunting, personal songwriting and the gentle, fragile melodies that inevitably descended into a haze of feedback and sonic confusion. And it was that quality, an artistic marriage of longing and angry resentment, innocence and powerlessness, personal guilt and social frustration, that gave songs like "All Apologies," "Lithium," "Polly," "Rape Me," and "Heart Shaped Box" their direct, intense power. In that sense, Cobain did speak to lonely, confused depressives like Bob Dylan, John Lennon, Neil Young and Lou Reed did before him. But it is the American public's incessant need to valorize these artists, to turn them into heroes and godfathers of movements that destroys their musical identity. Musicians are not leaders, not politicians or activists; especially someone as uncomfortable with adulation as Cobain. Nirvana had no answers to our generational dilemma nor professed prescriptions for m an's existential plight. Cobain's suicide is proof of that. Just because a song can provide a few minutes of solace, just because artcan be made vital and immediate, doe not make an artist a hero. Hero worship is dangerous, not least of all, for the hero. Bob Dylan wrote "It Ain'tMe Babe,"abitter, biting renunciation of generational leadership, at the height of his career. John Lennon eschewed God and all other forms of idolatry ("I just believe in me") at a time when the Beatles had nearly surpassed Jesus Christ in popularity. Cobain made Nirvana9s second major label album, In Utero, far less accessible and radiofriendly than itsfirst("Teenage angst has served me well/Now I'm bored and old"), but it sold millions of copies anyway. Cobain lost to milions of flannel-clad followers what was perhaps his last refuge against emotional abyss—his music. He was no hero. He was a poet, and that is the fact that will remain long after the feeding frenzy of cheap speculation about the details of his personal life is over. I, for one, will continue to celebrate that fact. mAke 6uaLity LeAderS. .. VOTE - MICHELLE S ADOVA FOR PRESIDENT This active A.S. Council Member is t he m ost qualified choice f or A.S. President.

Yvonne Gillis Contributing Writer Most of us are familiar with Charles Darwin and his theory of evolution. Probably fewer of us are aware of the fact that he discovered over 200 new species in one month on his trip to the Galapagos Islands. And even fewer of us are aware that today, less than 150 years later, biologists estimate that during 1993 at least 4,000 and as many as 36,000 species became extinct. While Darwin found himself extremely excited over discovering species and documenting their descriptions and habitats, scientists today do not find equal joy in documenting the rapid eradication of many of the world's plants and organisms necessary for us to sustain life. Necessary to sustain life? Yes! Seventy percent of the 3,000 plants identified by the National Cancer Institute as sources of cancer-fighting chemicals come from tropical forests. Recently, the Institute found that the extract from a vine located in the rain forests in Cameroon inhibits the replication of the AIDS virus. While you read this article, another type of plant species that could cure a AfiWRTISIlSte type of cancer or AIDS may be wiped out forever. Environmentalists consider the loss of tropical rain forests to be the world's most serious problem. These forests are homes to at least 50 percent of the earth's total species. Take for example the rosy Periwinkle. This flowering plant of the threatened tropical forests of Madagascar has two extracts used successfully to treat victims of lymphocytic leukemia and Hodgkin's disease. The active ingredients for 25 percent of our medicinal drugs are extracted from ants, most of which grow in the rain forests. Once the active compound is identified and isolated, it can be synthesized by chemists for our use. But the plant has to still be with us to identify the active ingredient. From the bark of the Yew tree, a rare Pacific tree, chemists extract the all-important substance called taxol which is used in ovarian and breast cancer treatment. Some environmental groups worried that logging and illegal bark stripping were threatening the Yew supply and hurting the legitimate harvesting of bark for taxol. Luckily though, by studying the taxol components, chemists have recently been able to produce a synthetic compound for commercial use. Darwin's Origins of Species (1959) advanced the case for evolution. Living creatures had evolved over millennia according to a principle described by one of his supporters as "the survival of the fittest." Darwin explained how non-random processes put the forces of the environment upon species to create natural selection. For example, if white rabbits and brown rabbits were living in snow country, the white rabbits, because of their ability to blend into the environment, will tend to escape their predators more readily than the brown rabbits. Conversely, brown rabbits blend into the desert setting easier than white rabbit. As a consequence, white rabbits thrive in snow country while the brown ones proliferate in the desert. So who looms to be the biggest predator of all? The present crisis of the rapid extinction of numerous plants and organisms is the first to be caused by a single species—our own. What would Darwin have though of this new development in the evolution of the species?

Bringing a child to school may be the only alternative when daycare arrangements fall through or do not coordinate with class schedules. Since the average age of students at this university is 29, many students have preschool < children that require daycare supervision. Along with the challenge of attending school, these students also face the difficult task of finding affordable, convenient, and safe childcare. Unfortunately, CSUSM is the only university in the state system that offers no childcare facilities for its students. For the past two years, CSUSM student, Angela Lowder, has worked with the Associated Students, to provide a solution to the childcare problem. Since new laws restrict the State of California from funding the construction of any future childcare facilities, this burden has fallen on the students. Lowder has taken up this chalnumagentftt^ lenge and succeeded in establishing a fund President, Bill Stacy, >;^ ^^-a' ^ which has raised $25,000 towards the development of a daycare facility. However, Lowder explained that finding a suitable location to establish a center has proved to c Myouha^di&er^daiice^.bti^ • § f r o m r e g i o n . ^ T W ^ . j ^ s h ^ ^ be the greatest problem. A location on I^eai^;the s ame jjl^ campus has proved to be too costly. EstiM mi^;.;-' mates could range as high as a million dollars to construct a building and provide &f ^ all the necessary services to the site. Louder has examined several sites offered by Cal' i tem i s a r ed 1 994 St&irtdi Si<tekick p mvided ^ l l i e g oal o f t he e ventis; t&E&ise Trans, but each location has proved unsuitt he fcalfgo able.

Speaker to Talk on Alcohol Use Without Abuse Every year, millions of Americans and their families are adversely affected in some way by alcohol abuse. Yet, many people would find it difficult or impossible to define alcohol abuse. Chances are your answer would differ from that of the person sitting next to you. So what is a "safe" level of alcohol use? What happens when you get a DUI? Can you be arrested for driving after having one drink? And what about the new DUI law that passed in January? Soon you will have a chance to have these and other questions answered by an expert. On Tuesday, April 12, Student Health Services is sponsoring a presentation entitled "Alcohol Use Without Abuse" featuring guest speaker Rafael Thomson. Mr. Thomson 'April ..

Well, it is true that the CSUSM Alumni Association does need your money in order to operate, but it is the Association's goal to provide some real benefits for all its members, especially those of you who are newly graduated. During the next year, you may be surprised how often you feel the need to utilize the resources of the campus. Perhaps you will need to use the computer lab or the library or want to attend one of the Arts and Lectures events on campus. Maybe you want to find out what someone in your Psychology class is doing these days, but you don't know how to reach her. Members of the Alumni Association will have access to these things and much, much more! The Alumni Association of CSUSM was formed to provide a continued link between the university and its alumni, and to "enhance the continued cultural, educational, personal and professional development of its members." It has taken the greater part of the last two years for the Alumni Board to get organized, prepare a data base and to put together a nice package of benefits for its members. Between April 15 and May 31, graduating seniors can join the Alumni Association for $15. This is a $10 discount off the normal price. Members of the Alumni Association receive a quarterly newsletter, CSU Library privileges, access to the campus computer s labs and extended use of the Career Center and discounts at the bookstore, Arts and Lectures events, and several local restaurants, businesses and attractions. Besides all these benefits, the Alumni Association sponsors two social events including the annual Alumni Picnic, held in late August, assists at the commencement ceremony each year and provides representation on several campus committees. Within the next year, the association plans to create a directory, set up a scholarship fund and plan additional social events. Memberships can be purchased through the Alumni Office in Commons 201, or watch for a table on the Plaza. For further information on the Alumni Association, please call Alumni Affairs 752-4970, or Tanis Brown 752-4952. 1. $10 off regular membership f eesApril 1 5-May 31 2. Use of CSUSM Library 3.

The club is the brainchild of Rika Yoshii, faculty member of the College of Arts and Sciences. It boasts 15 Japanese students but only a few tentative Americans, although Rika is anxious to recruit more. Most of the students are business majors who have come to California to improve their English and experience what passes for American culture. If you have been wondering why you see so many Japanese students in the Dome but never seem to take a class with one, it is because most of the foreign exchange students spend their first year in intensive English as a Second Language (ESL) classes. Some of the Japanese students are mildly critical of this arrangement. Akari Sagane, for example, wishes she could take classes with local students. After learning a little about the Japanese educational system, you begin to appreciate just how determined CSUSM* s Japanese students must be. After 12 years in a school system which still allows corporal punishment, and is widely regarded as the most competitive in the world, most students look forward to an easy four years of college, a "four-year party" is how Akari describes it. For a student to relinquish this "rest" and go to a foreign country, with a different language and competitive universities, demonstrates their tenacity. One of the more interesting activities planned by the club is the formation of an international music band which will blend elements of Japanese music with American rock and roll. Rika hopes to send the band to Japan to see how they will be received. They are still in need of a male vocalist. Interested parties should contact Yoshii directly. An American student might wonder why he or she should join the club. Well, for a business student, there is an obvious advantage, and many liberal studies majors might benefit from some hands-on experience with another culture. For the rest of us, I can say that I found the Japanese students to be intelligent and interesting people and I look forward to the next club meeting. For more information about the Japa- Japanese Students get together to share their experiences of life at an American university nese Cultural Exchange Club contact Rika Yoshii at 752-4121 or 6231 Craven Hall.

T O V OTE �Project Wildlife looks for volunteers to care for animals, birds • p r o j e c t Wildlife is gearing up for 1 - ^ S a n Diego County's annual baby A season. Over the next five months, Project Wildlife will receive between 7-8,000 baby birds and mammals. Volunteers are needed to care for injured and orphaned wildlife four hours per week .at the Project Wildlife Care Facility in San Diego. Volunteers are also needed to care for baby birds and mammals in their own homes. Rescue/transport volunteers and telephone volunteers are in demand too. "The wildlife baby season is almost upon us," said Ly n Lacy e, spokesperson for Project Wildlife. "We desperately need caring volunteers to help with the thousands of injured, orphaned or displaced animals and birds in San Diego County." There are a number of ways to help in this massive effort to save San Diego's native wildlife. Individuals who are home during the day will be trained in the care and feeding of baby songbirds. Dependable people are needed to volunteer four hours a week at the Project Wildlife Care Facility, which is open seven days a week, 12 hours a day. "If you do find a baby bird or mammal, be sure it really is orphaned before you rescue •it," cautioned Lacye. "Many species leave their young while out searching for food. Be sure the parents are not returning to feed. Project Wildlife can rescue, rehabilitate and release these wild babies, but there is no substitute for the real parent." A baby bird that has fallen from the nest ¥ PROJECT WILDLIFE A SECONd chAINCE can be put back and the parent will continue to feed it. If you cannot reach the nest, put the bird in a plastic bowl lined with tissue or paper towels as close as possible to the original site. The parents will usually find it. When rescue becomes necessary, the bird or animal should be handled as little as possible. Often these otherwise healthy creatures die of stress. Keep the animal or bird warm, dark and quiet, and call Project Wildlife. Until you reach a volunteer, do not feed the wildlife. Baby birds and mammals can easily inhale food into their lungs and die, and incorrect diet can cause irreparable damage. Project Wildlife, a non-profit volunteer organization, has been in existence since 1975. Over7,000 animals and birds are brought to Project Wildlife each year. The organization receives no government funding and exists entirely on membership donations and charitable contributions. For more volunteer information, call 225 WILD or 588-4289.

Joel Grinolds, MD, MPH The good news is that the March rains have helped our drought condition; however, the bad news is that this may be a sinister allergy season because of the rain. Spring and early summer in Southern California make one out of six people fairly miserable with allergy symptoms. The recent rains have spurred the growth of indoor and outdoor molds, tree pollen counts, and soon grass pollen counts will be on the rise. Pollen can travel up to 100 miles so that it is not just local vegetation that can be a factor. The symptoms of allergic rhinitis (commonly called hay fever) may include itching and swelling of the mucous membranes of the nose, mouth, eyes, and lungs. It can cause sneezing, tearing, a clear discharge from the nose, post nasal drip, as well as a dry cough and wheezing. Approximately a third of the people with allergic rhinitis will also have wheezing with exercise called exercise-induced asthma. The average allergic rhinitis patient is symptomatic for 5 months a year and 62 percent of patients report they are bothered a "great deal" by their symptoms. This obviously restricts people from everyday activities and results in many work and school days lost. Total sales for medications, both over the counter and prescription, is^asily over 2 billion a year. There is no magic allergy antidote but an allergic patient has basically three choices for gaining some relief. The first is to avoid the Tai Chi Glasses to begin April 12 On Tuesday, April 12, a new beginning level Tai Chi Chuan class will be starting at CSUSM. The class will be held in ACD 104 from 12 Noon to 1 PM, and will run for six weeks, from April 12 to May 17. The class is open to everyone, and the cost is $30 for the six-week session. Regina Gill, shown at the right, a very experienced instructor, has o ffered this class at this exceptionally low price. Tai Chi Chuan is both exercise and meditation/relaxation. It is one of the best methods available for stress reduction, and requires no special clothing, only comfortable shoes. To register for the class, sign up at Student Health Services, respond to me personally by E-mail, or enroll at the door on Tuesday April 12. See you there. offending allergen. This is usually fairly difficult but there are steps one can take to reduce allergens especially in your home. For specifics see your health care provider f or counseling and literature. The second choice is to use medication to relieve your symptoms. If you self-treat allergy symptoms with over the counter medications, ask a pharmacist for advice. Don't abuse the nasal decongestant sprays, especially since they have adverse long-term effects. Be careful even of over-the-counter antihistamines because most of these will have some sedating effect. Studies have demonstrated that they have similar effects to alcohol in impairing ones ability to drive. Know when to give up on self-treatment. When allergies continue to interfere with your life, sleep, and work or you develop secondary infectious complications see your health care provider. A number of new, albeit fairly expensive, medications which relieve symptoms without causing sedation are now available by prescription after an evaluation by your health care provider. Lastly, immunotherapy, commonly referred to as allergy shots, based on specific allergy testing, can provide relief. This is appropriately the last resort if symptoms can not be adequately controlled by environmental avoidance and tolerated medications. If you have any questions or concerns contact your health care provider or call Student Health Services at 752-4915.

Mary Szterpakiewicz Editor-in-Chief Lexis/Nexis once again has become the subject of recent controversy. According to Gabriela Sonntag, Reference/Instruction Librarian, Lexis/Nexis is unavailable at the CSUSM library between the hours of 11 AM and 2 PM. Such was the case on the afternoon of March 8. On that Friday afternoon, several students were witness to an incident at a Lexis/ Nexis terminal in the CSUSM library. Library Information Assistants routinely walk around the computer islands offering assistance and answering questions. When history faculty member Patty Seleski sat down at a Lexis terminal, several individuals observed her frustration when the Lexis/Nexis terminal would not connect with the service. Seleski proceeded to hit the keyboard and expressed herself in a loud manner. Renee, one of the Information Assistants rushed to o ffer assistance and was met with " I'm not a student here, I 'm a faculty m ember... this is no way to run a library . . . this is no way to treat faculty." Seleski turned around, paused and added "and students." The Information Assistant attempted to explain to Seleski that CSUSM library access to the Lexis/Nexis system is routinely denied from 11 AM to 2 PM. According to Sonntag, Mead Data provides Lexis/Nexis service to educational institutions at a discounted rate. For this reason, on-line priority is given to businesses who pay the full rate to use the service, particularly during peak hours. Thus, Lexis/Nexis is not available to the CSUSM library terminals during those times. An exception may occur if you sign on to Lexis/Nexis before 11 AM— some have experienced no interruption of on-line service. Signs are visibly posted above each terminal stating these downtime periods. Seleski said she knew why it was down, but continued to complain. The Information Assistant suggested that Seleski speak with a librarian. Seleski replied "I know where to find the librarian" and continued to disrupt others in the library. "This is supposed to be a research institution," Seleski said, adding, "You should have a back-up." The Information Assistant then left to help a student at another computer terminal but later returned with librarian Stephanie Weiner. Weiner attempted to explain why Lexis/Nexis was down, but Seleski loudly and repeatedly said, "Get away from me!" One onlooker noted, "When the terminal d idn't work, she [Seleski] threw a temper tantrum, like a little kid. You would think that a faculty member would know how to channel their frustration in more construc- tive ways. If she wants priority access, she can pay for it." According to Sonntag, Lexis/Nexis service is available to faculty and staff through their personal computer terminals upon request. CSUSM's First Cougar Fun Run Amy Cubbison Contributing Writer In place of a much-dreaded final paper Dr. Betsy R eed's exercise physiology class is planning and promoting a 5K fun run at CSUSM. The professor suggested it and the students were quick to respond, as you might imagine. The Fun Run is not only a run, entrants can also walk. The distance is a 5K which is 3.1 miles. There is no time constraint and there will be three hours to complete the race. The reason for the Fun Run is jto promote physical activity while raising money for future exercise facilities such as a volleyball court. If you are interested in entering the 5K, registration forms will be available on campus shortly. Along with the form there will be a helpful guide on how to train for non athletes . The entry fee is only $3 for students and $5 for other interested individuals. The race will take place on May 6, 1994 in the CSUSM parking lot. Late registration will begin at 8 AM and the actual race at 9 AM. The race will go on until 12 Noon. Following the race there will be refreshments and a r affle with some terrific prices. There will also be complimentary body fat analysis and blood pressure screening. Results of the tests are private and for the persons own benefit. All of the students in exercise physiology are extremely enthusiastic about being part of CSUSM's first annual 5K Cougar Fun Run, so please exhibit some school spirit and join in on the fun. It will be history in the making! Not only will entering the race be a great incentive to get in shape for summer, but it will help CSUSM get established and respected in the San Marcos area.

P OLICE B IKES This summer you will see CSUSM Police Officers riding bicycles on patrol. We just finished an excellent three day class at UCSD. The class covered patrol procedures, bike safety, the advantage of officers on bikes, and many more subjects. I didn't know there was so much to know about riding a bicycle. The bike program will give the officers more opportunity to get much closer to the students and staff. The bikes will also allow us to better monitor the parking lots and campus area, creating a safer environment for everyone. B UCKLE U P As I drive around town and the campus I see many people not wearing their safety belts, when they drive or are passengers. Did you know that in 1992 safety belts saved 5,226 lives and prevented about 136,000 moderate-to-critical injuries. From 1983 to 1992, it is estimated that safety belts saved 34,794 lives. Be smart, take the time to buckle up.

In conjunction with National Women's History Month, Deborah Small's advanced computer art class first researched eight women who played an important role in San Diego's history. Then they created large-scale, computer-generated art based on the accomplishments of these notable women. The works will be on exhibit at various locations on the campus till May 21. The eight women whose lives are featured in the exhibit are: Kate Sessions, botanist; Ellen Browning Scripps, publisher and philanthropist; Delfina Cuero, herbalist; Katherine Tingley, theosophist; Mary Chase Walker, San Diego's first school teacher; Belle Benchley, wildlife advocate and zoo director; Dona Juana Machado, early resident born at the Presidio in 1814 and oral historian; and Califia, legendary black Amazon queen who inspired the naming of California. The CSUSM students who created the artwork are: Katherine Johnson, Jeri Kalvin, Linda Kallas, Erika Kent, Kelly Mundell, Diana Mcintosh, Yvonne Ramsey, Genevieve Venegas, Norman Manes, and Jenny Jackson. So take some time to see and admire these interesting exhibits around campus. RIGHT: Katherine Johnson's project honoring Kate Sessions.

Vazquez Guest Editorial There has been a great deal of discussion regarding the actual cost illegals represent to the State of California. Many politicians, such as Mickey Conroy in an editorial published March 11 mThe Pride, suggest that the reason for our current increase in tuition fees has been directly related to the enrollment of illegal immigrants in our universities. He blames the illegals for the continuous rise in tuition fees and the decline of available classes in the CSU system. According to Conroy, there are at least 700 undocumented students attending in four of the 21 universities in the CSU system. But, let's presume for a moment that he is correct. 700 Students is insignificant compared to some 400,000 students in the CSU system. It represents. 17 percent, less than two-tenths of a percent. One can only wonder where he got this information? What kind of study was done? Which universities is Conroy referring to? What determines illegal status and so on? Last week, I telephoned Conroy's office to check on this information. After being transferred three times, I was told someone would get back to me. To this day, I am still waiting. Conroy gives no proof and therefore, has n a basis for arguing that illegals are depleting resources from our schools. When I spoke with Kathleen Fannella, Assistant Director of Admissions and Records on campus, she replied, "We have no way of knowing who is undocumented." The statements made by Conroy are misleading. They imply that illegals are exhausting and abusing our educational resources. These students are paying; therefore, they are supporting rather than exhausting the educational system. They do not cause a burden to anyone, nor to the state. Since they reside in the state, they become taxpayers by being consumers, employees, and students. It is precisely because of this reason that the CSU system's current policy abides by the Leticia A court order, which classifies eligible undocumented students as state residents for tuition purposes. As members of working and tax-paying families, they can enroll and pay state tuition fees rather than out-of-state tuition. Assemblyman Conroy's bill, AB 1801, would deny students access to higher education based on legal status. It would create obstacles to an education by charging out-of-state tuition fees to undocumented residents. Denying education to immigrants would not benefit anyone; rather, it would hurt society. Colleen BentlyAdler from the office of the chancellor for CSU stated that "these students should be treated fairly," adding "our office and the Board of Trustees support the fact that these students should be eligible for higher education, and they should pay in-state tuition fees." Bentley-Adler noted, "we certainly do not look at these students as criminals." What Assemblyman Conroy is doing is diverting the issue of California's economic crisis by attacking and accusing the undocumented; he is using them as scapegoats. Because they have no voice or vote in this issue, they have no way to defend themselves. Insinuations against illegal immigrants contribute to perpetuate the already worsened image of immigrants in the state. Conroy also perpetuates institutionalized racism by denying education to immigrants. Conroy creates bad sentiments in general by referring to the undocumented immigrants as "illegal aliens" and as "criminals." These remarks are offensive, derogatory and completely irresponsible, especially coming from a public official. Conroy's allegations are simplistic and undermine our intelligence. He is giving us a fourth grade interpretation of a complex issue. Does he really think students are going to accept his racist views without question? How can he expect to gain student support by treating us as elementary school students? l &ttif^ >,tolit:he Editor s Health Services offers more than just medicine Dear Editor: This letter is a very belated thank you to everyone in Health Services. Last semester I was victim of the flu, pneumonia and a few other invading microbes. As a result 1 had to visit Health Services several times and needed lots of TLC, which was freely given by the entire staff. Both Dr. Grinolds and Nurse Practitioner Judith Weiss-Zinger took their time to examine thoroughly my physical condition and listen to my physical complaints. I appreciate the careful attention I received and wish that all my experiences with medical staff had been as positive as mine have been here at CSUSM. Thank you again. _, A AmyParsloe In Defense of the Lounge Dear Editor: The recent addition of a pool table and a few video games to the student lounge has caused quite an uproar—two letters to the editor in the last issue of The Pride were dedicated to bashing this unthinkable invasion of academic integrity. With such limited space and a limited budget, the argument goes, why are we wasting valuable resources on mind-numbing entertainment? This is an understandable position, one that deserves a well thought-out, keenly-argued empirical retort—LOOSEN UP!! I like to play pool. Obviously, I also like to acquire knowledge and engage in intellectual discovery. That is the primary preoccupation of all college students and the sole purpose for the existence of our fine university. But I honestly do not believe that Employee/Students Pay Fees anyone's academic careers will be the least Dear Editor: bit threatened by allowing actual lounging in The nonsequitur arguments presented the student lounge.

Weir Thomas Lee Huntington �Nadinne Cruz to speak on community service CHILDCARE continued from Page 1 administrators continue to alert the community about the need f or funding of this project. President Stacy met with the Associated Students at their retreat and told them that the development of this facility continues to be a priority at the university. While a daycare center at C SUSM would be convenient f or students, it would also provide affordable childcare. A sliding scale could help lower-income students manage the cost associated with childcare. Kuchler also noted that perhaps the university f aculty and staff could use the facility at a slightly higher rate, which would help the center offset costs. Kuchler also noted that with the permission of the Associated Students, the center could serve an academic purpose. CSUSM's psychology department has indicated an interest in creating a program that would allow students to observe the children and incorporate the center into an internship program. The facility could then serve both as a valuable service f or parents, and as a hands-on learning experience for students. However, the progress made by Lowder could be slowed when she leaves CSUSM this semester. As much as this facility is needed at the campus, Kuchler noted that another student or students will need to come forward tocontinueLowder'sefforts. Lowder said, " I have stirred up the embers. Now, I hope someone will come along to keep them going."

P^^^SSBB^b — # SAN MARCOS PRESENTS On April 20, 1994, Dr. Nadinne Cruz, a leader in multiculturalism and service-learning will speak at CSUSM. The Service-Learning Initiative will host the following events: 10-11 AM Open Session CRA 6201 12-1:30 PM Community Service ACD 315, Diversity & Social Change 2:30-4 PM Open session CRA 1201 The open sessions are for administrators, faculty, staff, and students wishing to join in topical discussions involving how service relates to issues of diversity (topics to be announced). Dr. Nadinne Cruz will also speak to the diversity of the CSUSM servicelearning goals. The following information is an introduction to the topics and areas where she has highly influenced the field of experiential education and service-learning by her innovative ideas. A Filipina-American educator, Dr. Cruz was 1992-1993 Lang Visiting Professor of Social Change at S warthmore College where she piloted a Democratic Practice Project course in the political science department. The course emphasizes multicultural and community-based perspectives on "The Politics of Social Responsibility and Public Service." In this course, "community involvement" cuts both ways: students are involved in community service; community people are involved with teaching by modeling options for exercising social responsibility and contributing to the public good. As Executive Director of HECUA (Higher Education Consortium for Urban Affairs, St. Paul), Dr. Cruz developed for the 18 member colleges several community-based programs located in Latin America, Scandinavia, San Francisco, and Minneapolis-St. Paul. The programs model ways in which faculty and student relationships with and in various communities form the critical core of teaching "materials." The 22-year old consortium has demonstrated a cost-effective option for supporting faculty in sustained innovations and cutting-edge practice in community-based teaching. Nadinne Cruz also provides workshops on multiculturalism and community-based teaching for college faculty, students and community groups. In the l ast two years, these have involved, among others: Wisconsin Association of Independent Colleges and Universities Faculty Development Network; St. Olaf College faculty; board and staff members of the foundation, Headwaters Fund and of Fresh Air Public Radio; students at S warthmore College; faculty and administrators from fifteen different institutions of higher education who participated in the 1993 Campus Compact Institute; and 1993-1994 grantees of the Corporation of National and Community Service. She will also be a keynote speaker at a Western Regional Campus Compact Institute to be held at the University of San Diego on July 7-9, 1994. In addition, Dr. Cruz is cofounder of the Philippine Study Group of Minnesota Foundation and t he P hilippines-Minnesota Grassroots Linkages Project. She is on the Board of Colors, a Minnesota journal of opinion by writers of color. The lecture and visit to CSUSM by Dr. Cruz is funded through the CSUSM ServiceLearning grant from the Corporation on National and Community Service. Students, faculty, staff, administrators, and community leaders are invited to attend. ? EVERY T HURSDAY f 8 TO CLOSE . COLLEGE N H GT .

A Howard film could always be counted upon to provide relatively guiltless, feel-good, populist entertainment that left your head the minute you left the theatre. There is nothing wrong with that, of course; welldone schtick can be just as valuable and timeless as high film art (see Gone with the Wind, Casablanca, The Maltese Falcon, When Harry Met Sally, Star Wars or any Frank Capra movie). Recent Howard films, though (specifically Backdraft and Far and Away) seemed soulless, all special effects, emotional scores and big movie star smiles—two hour music videos advertising the glamour of Hollywood. The Paper, Howard's new behind the scenes look at a New York tabloid, cleanly breaks that little losing streak. Certainly, it is a fast-paced, well-produced commercial crowdpleaser and it claims to be nothing more. But it also has grit — sloppy edges and ambiguity and antiheroes and moral dilemmas. But not moral dilemmas that stand in the way of expediency or plot development—this is no Schindler's List. Rather it is an unusually well-written, well-acted, hugely entertaining dramatic comedy. And there's nothing wrong with that. Indeed, one could argue that a film like The Paper is harder to make than some high-minded, three-hour historical epic. But that is a fruitless argument, and there's no need to compare artistic apples and oranges here. Suffice to say that Howard in The Paper, despite severaldangerous moments of near-cliche, pulls off a rare achievement: tightly paced, quick-witted controlled chaos. He is helped immeasurably towards that end by a fine ensemble cast including Michael Keaton, Robert Duvall, Marisa Tomei, Randy Quaid and Glenn Close. Duvall is especially (and characteristically) fine as the hard-edged editor-in-chief with "a prostate the size of a bagel." Keaton delivers the finest performance of his previously undistinguished acting career and Tomei proves herself worthy of the sudden fame that has followed here since her Academy Award for My Cousin Vinnie. Close and Quaid tend to ham it up a bit but usually provide the appropriate level of comic relief. The Paper is at its best when it stays in the chaotic, insane newsroom; the pace slackens a bit during the obligatory family trouble subplots. Fortunately, though, Howard always brings it back to the frantic search for the story. The glee in Keaton's voice as he tells off the editor of an uptown, New York Times—like newspaper is the best advertisement for adrenaline pumping, down and dirty journalism since All the President's Men. Keaton rushes home to his pregnant wife at the end of the movie and curses his journalistic obsession. But this is just conventional audience b aitingit's obvious that the film's heart is buried deep inside,the Metro section, and that's why it all succeeds so well. 66 An Independent Female OR a Man Has His Pride *' Yareli Arizmendi Faculty, Visual and Performing Arts As its Spring 1994 theater production, The San Marcos Players (CSU San Marcos) is currently producing An Independent Female or a Man Has His Pride. In the old tradition of traveling troupes and the revived 60's tradition of "street" and "agit-prop" theater, An Independent Female.. . takes a closer look at the relationship between love, power and economic dependence. Written by The San Francisco Mime Troupe, biting satire and intelligent humor combine with a highly melodramatic acting style—in the "who will save me now" tradition—to deliver an entertaining and thought-provoking theatrical event. As a prelude to An Independent Female. . . ,The San Marcos Players present "The Difference Between Men and Women," a piece written by Michelle Lewellen (CSUSM student). This scene offers the insightful discussion of two eight-year old girls on the subject of men and women. The group will be performing on April 18 at the CSUSM Dome at 12 Noon; April 23 at the Oceanside Day of Art Festival; April 29 at CSUSM in conjunction with "Bring Our Daughters to Work"; May 3 at Palomar College (Music Court, 2 PM); and May 12 at CSUSM as part of teh Annual Arts Festival. For more information, contact Yareli Arizmendi at 752-4149. iil fpjjtf ' ••ft 1 c Dryve, a new musical group, comes to CSUSM Wednesday, April 20. They will be performing in front of The Dome at 12 Noon. The group had a humble beginning, knowing only one song and playing it at any coffee shop that would have them. Cory Verner and Paul Donovan, who started Dryve, are the band's primary songwriters. Within the last year, they were joined by Steve Pratchner and Kieth Sansone. Recently, they added accordian, violin, and tin whistle to their musical ensemble. Their set is diverse, pulling from American roots—country, bluegrass, and rockabilly with a common thread running throughout that is distinctly Dryve. �More to Do in San Diego County San Marcos Celebrates "Day of the Family" liiiilill THEATER AND CONCERT TICKETS offers classes for windsurfing, sailing, kayaking, Half-Price tickets to tonight's performances rowing, surfing, water skiing, and scuba diving, of theater, ballet, symphony and other events. at very competitive prices.

Northern Indian Classical Music Comes to CSUSM As part of its Arts & Lectures Series, CSUSM is sponsoring a concert of Northern Indian classical music on April 17 at 3 PM in Academic Hall, Room 102. The concert features Kartik Seshadri on the sitar and Abhiman Kaushal on the tabla (a pair of small, different-sized hand-drums used in Indian music). Kartik Seshadri's first musical inspiration was listening to Pandit Ravi Shankar. Kartik made his concert debut as a sitarist at the age of six and was nationally recognized as a prodigy. Kartik first met and received Panditji's blessings in 1965 and formally became his disciple in 1975. In the past year, Kartik accompanied Pandit Ravi Shankar in major concert halls and festivals in India, Israel, Europe, Mexico, Middle East, and the United States, including Carnegie Hall. Kartik will be accompanied on tabla by Abhiman Kaushal. Abhiman comes from a musical family. His father is a tabla artist, and his mother is a dancer and teacher of Bharat Natyam, Kachupudi and Odissi style. He is currently studying under Pandit Ravi Shankar and frequently accompanies professional vocalists and instrumentalists all over India. Admission is $3 for CSUSM students and $5 for general admission. Tickets may be purchased at the University's bookstore during normal business hours or by calling 7524730. Tickets may be purchased at the door one-half hour before the performance, unless it is sold out. For further information, call the Arts and Lectures Office at 752-4945.

Richard Harvey, fraternity member and head of this big-brother-type program, says eligible teens "don't have to be gang bangers from San Marcos or Vista. They can be a surfer from Del Mar with poor study habits." Once a week, Sigma Phi Delta members will take troubled boys to the movies, teach them computer skills, and help them with their homework. The goal of the program is to provide positive role models for teens who need special guidance. Harvey says he can relate to misguided teenagers. Although he says he has never been in trouble with the law, he has "done dumb things like drop out of high school." Sigma Phi Delta wants to show young boys that anyone can succeed. Not all troubled boys are eligible for the "Brothers For Life " program. The fraternity will not accept any apathetic teens. Harvey said ' They must, be motivated. They will be screened and evaluated for their potential and desire to succeed." For more information about this program call Richard Harvey at 259-1533.

"The University. . .encourages students to examine moral and ethical issues central to their development as responsible men and women." 4. "Students.. .seek to understand human behavior, culture, values, and institutions." The University bears the responsibility of living up to its own standards. Perhaps an examination is in order. How well does the University meet the challenge of survival in today's social crisis? Here are 10 social issues to consider: (1) Measure performance in light of a new book, The Fall of the Ivory Tower: Government Funding, Corruption, and the Bankrupting ofAmerican Higher Education, by Hillsdale College president George Roche. (2) Crime statistics show violent felonies peak at 15 to 19, ages when students are considering college. Even with education, a violent person becomes only an educated vilent person, unless that person changes. (3) Our country has the highest violent crime rate in the world. Is training available to deter the conscience at the university level? (4) Judeo-Christian ethics were the basis upon which our country was built. Students of morality are essential to social survival; fundamental changes leading to high moral character, a goal of the Mission Statement. (5) Courses contributing to the solution and not the problem. Stemming the drift toward immorality and moral relativism. (6) Learning responsibility, facing consequences. Warnings against substance abuse. (7) Back to basics—objective truth for social reform to replace opinion, perception, credibility and contemporary culture. (8) Emphasis on public standards of virtue, objective morality, moral judgment. The loss of moral truth leads to tyranny. (9) Civil rights and the free exercise of what people believe should not prevent religious civil liberties. (10) A critical review of secular humanism, suspect as a "religion" with overtones of immediate gratification leading to neo-paganism. A final word of caution in observing and considering our impending headlong social collapse. History is known to repeat itself. Remember Rome, a onertime dominating power of the world. What happened to it? The Roman Empire declined and fell because of immorality and excessive governmental bureaucracy. Is there a lesson in this to challenge us to do something for survival?

We often have to suspend other important aspects of our lives, such as employment, relationships, and leisure activities. When students cope with the difficulties and share in the excitement together, the educational pursuit can become much easier. Support is available on the campus of CSUSM. Support groups bring together people who share common concerns and help each person to cope more effectively. In a relaxed, comfortable atmosphere, students assist each other with personal and educational challenges. Through shared understanding and the exchange of ideas with peers, students in support groups : • experience a sense of control over their lives • reduce the feeling of isolation. • obtain a better perspective on their problems • have the opportunity to discuss emotions • share and reinforce positive coping skills. To join a CSUSM support group, simply be there. With no fee or obligation to attend every week, just come when you feel the need. Support groups meet in Room 5205, Craven Hall in the Student Resource P age 13 P age12 P age 14 University Employee/Students Pay Lower Fees True or false...? University employees who are also students at CSUSM (UES) pay full fees including tuition and other expenses. What? You guessed incorrectly? That's right! UESs do not pay nary the amount of fees that full or even part-time students pay. How much do the UES pay, you might ask? Well, the grand total is $3 per semester up to six units. Yes sir, three bucks. One dollar is allotted for Student Unibtf fees, one dollar is earmarked for Health Facilities, and the last dollar is allocated for Student Body Associated fees. But wait...aren't the UESs entitled toafewperks? Ofcourse, sure, but should they be completely exempt from paying fiill fees, especially student fees, since after all, they are students? The ironic part is that it is entirely possible for the UESs to rlin for an elected position on the Associated Students council. This means that the UES who pays nominal fees, at most, is given the responsibility of representing full-fee-paying students. I 'm not suggesting that the UESs are not entitled to repre- sentation on the A.S. council; a student is a student is a student, no matter how great or small the monetary contribution to a c&sh-strapped system. But a conflict arises when those who do not contribute monetarily are able to participate fully in the programs sponsered by the rest of the fundingpopulace, simply because they are students. Perhaps the university, during this time of financial dire straits, would reconsider its position of favoritism towards its employees and commit the UESs to paying their fair share of fees.

Widely regarded as "the father of cable television," Daniels is chairman of Daniels Communitcations Inc., a diversified group of companies including Daniels & Associates. "Bill Daniels was selected as this y ear's honoree because of his vision, leadership, high ethical standards, and community service, all of which are legendary. H e is widely respected not only f or his remarkable accomplishments in the business world but also f or his philanthropic activities. Supportive of higher education, Daniels funded C SUSM's first endowed chair. Daniels represents the ultimate aim of our university; he is an outstanding citizen of his country and community, and, in addition, he is a role model of business acumen, fairness, and success," said President Bill Stacy. Over the years, Daniels has received countless awards for his civic leadership. He is known both as an entrepreneur and a humanitarian. He served as the earliest leader of the fledgling cable trade association, founded the first cable brokerage company and launched the first cable investment banking business. He owned and operated hundreds of cable television systems, created dozens of innovative sports programming companies, and along the way, has devoted a sizable share of • > -V/ ' • t 1 time to the creation of new civic enterprises, helping those less fortunate, and cultivating a new generation of industry leaders. Daniels is an active participant in federal and state government and remains an outspoken advocate of America's f ree enterprise system. In 1992, Bill was honored with a special Emmy Award f rom the National Academy of Television Arts and Sciences for his unparalleled record of achievement J n the development of television, and f or his humanitarian work. C SUSM's ball will be held at the Sheraton Grande Torrey Pines in La Jolla on April 9. For information call Jane Lynch at 752-4406. nUnplanned Pregnancy?1 Decisions To Make?

The Political Science Department is in the process of hiring a new faculty member to teach in one of two categories: Political Behavior and American Politics or Public Law and Political Theory. Before a faculty member is accepted, he or she must pass a teaching test. "Here at CSUSM, a faculty member's main responsibility is teaching. We put the candidates in an environment where we can evaluate their teaching," said Dr. Peter Zwick, head of the Political Science Department. Friday, March 4th and Monday, March 7th, two candidates demonstrated their teaching styles in front of CSUSM students. Dr. Helena Silverstein joined six students last Friday to discuss contemporary constitutional law issues in a seminar format. Monday, Dr. Louis DiSipio, presented a lecture on Latino voting patterns to a senior seminar class of twenty. Dr. Zwick said that putting candidates in an actual classroom setting serves two purposes. "First we are inviting student reaction. Second, we are watching and evaluating their performance in that setting." After Silverstein and DiSipio's presentations, Dr. Zwick invited students to give him feedback on the candidates performance and teaching style. "Traditionally, major universities invite top candidates to a seminar," Zwick said. Candidates will then "make a formal presentation of their research containing lots of data" to the decision-making committee. Sometimes graduate students are invited to the seminar. The Political Science Association, a CSUSM student organization, was actively involved in bringing the candidates closer to the students. In lieu of a scheduled Political Science class Friday March 4th, the PSA gathered together students to sit in with Dr. Silverstein. "The PSA was really helpful in getting people to come out and listen," Zwick said. These classroom presentations were the final step in a candidate selection process that began last fall. When the Political Science Department obtained authorization to hire a new faculty member the decision making committee (Dr. Zwick, Dr. Golich and Dr. Thompson) announced the position in a trade publication called "American Political Science Personnel Service Newsletter." They also "put the word out" to other universities. The committee continued their search in Washington D.C. at the American Political Science Association's meeting in September 1993. * The APSA meeting hall was a virtual 'meat-rack* said Dr. Zwick, where candidates and universities looking for faculty met for interviews. Dr. Zwick, Dr. Golich and Dr. Thompson spent time at the meeting "getting the word out and looking for a good candidate." Applications and resumes rolled in last fall. Over winter break the committee evaluated the applications and broke candidates down to a short list of twenty then into a shorter list of eleven. "Since all eleven looked good on paper" it was time to conduct in-depth phone interviews to further evaluate the contenders. Economics Professor Arnold joined the team. The committee spent one-half hour on a speaker phone with each of the eleven finalists to evaluate their "personality, interests and how they came across verbally." These phone sessions "added another dimension to the selection process," said Zwick. Financial constraints prohibited inviting more than two candidates to visit CSUSM for final interviews and classroom performance tests. The Political Science Department has a total selection budget of $2,000 to cover airfare, food and lodging for all of the candidates combined. Dr. Helena Silverstein is currently a professor of Government and Law at Lafayette College in Pennsylvania. She earned her Ph.D. at the University of Washington. Silverstein's academic interest is "Legal Mobilization" (using the legal process as a means of social change). Dr. Louis DiSipio is a p rofessor at Wellesley College in Massachusetts. He earned his Ph.D. at the University of Texas in Austin. His area of expertise is elections and political behavior. Who will make last cuts? Silverstein or DiSipio? Will the selection c ommittee's choice coincide with the students' favorite ? The word is not out yet. The final decision will be made early this week. When the hiring process is complete, The Pride will publish a profile of our new political science faculty member.

Human Papillomavira virus Joel Grinolds, MD, MPH T T f you read this column frequently you I might be wondering why I am writ J L ing about another sexually transmitted disease. In reality, I have no idea how many people actually read this column. Recently, I have written about other current health concerns; however, the subject of this column, Human Papillomavira Virus (HPV) infection, has become a very common and important health problem to the college-age population. This will also be a first, the first of a two part column, because HPV infection is complex and misinformation is common. Human papillomavira (HPV) is the virus that causes warts. There are more than 60 types with approximately a dozen types that can cause warts or subtle signs of infection in the genital tract. Genital HPV is not a reportable disease so we do not have exact numbers on how much of the population is infected. It is estimated that between 500,000 to 1 million new cases of genital HPV occur each year. It clearly is the fastestrisingviral STD. Genital HPV is now thought to be more contagious than previously. It is usually spread through sexual contact with an infected person, although intercourse is not necessary to spread the infection. In studies, two thirds of those with genital warts infected their partners. It is very likely that genital HPV infection also can be transmitted when warts are not present. When viral infections are transmitted from person to person the virus infects the top layers of the skin and can remain inactive or dormant for a long time. We are frequently asked for how long? No one knows for sure but months and may be years can go by before signs of infection or warts appear. For most people, warts will appear within three to six months. Some types of HPV will result in more visible warts than others. Types 6 and 11 will almost always result in visible warts. Other types that may infect the cervix of women may not produce visible warts. Currently, there is no easy test that is reliable, cost effective, and helpful in treatment that identifies the HPV type. HPV cannot be grown in the laboratory and cannot be detected by a blood test. We also know that when warts or other signs of HPV occur, a healthy immune system may clear up the warts by itself over a period of months or years. However, the HPV may still remain, and recurrence of warts is fairly common. When HPV is present in the genital area without visible genital warts one is considered to have "subclinical infection." It is becoming very clear that subclinical infections are much more widespread than anyone would have thought ten years ago. Also, as research tools become more sensitive in detection of HPV we are finding a greater prevalence in patients with subclinical infection. Many researchers believe that medical science is for thefirsttime identifying an infectious agent that likely has been widespread in the population for decades. What does it all mean? I will address that in a column soon. If you are concerned about this health problem, read the next column and/or contact your health care provider or Student Health Services at 752-4915.

San Marcos Blvd. Ste. 105 San Marcos 744-7165 If you drive under the influence of alcohol, or any other drug, you risk the chance of spending the night in a cold place. I'm not talking about the smelly county jail. I 'm talking about that cold slab at the county morgue. And the worst thing is next to you could be an innocent pedestrian, driver of the vehicle you hit, or even a child, maybe yours! Get the picture? DUI, DWI, stupidity, whatever you want to call it. If you drink alcoholic beverages you probably have driven under the influence. In San Diego in 1992, 23 people were killed and 542 injured in alcohol-involved crashes. The sad thing is this could have been avoided and the people in those numbers were in the 16 to 20 age group. More than 43 percent of all 16 to 20-year old deaths are caused by vehicle crashes. Nationally, enough people die in these crashes to fill a sports arena. Does a sold out stadium give you a good idea? We're talking serious numbers! Based on the current status of drunk driving in the U.S., two out of five people will be involved in an alcohol-related crash at some time in their lives. AM I DRUNK? Some people think you have to be stumbling or falling down to be considered intoxicated, and unable to drive. Well we all know that's wrong, I hope. According to the California Vehicle Code (CVC) a person cannot drive a vehicle with a .08 percent or more, by weight of alcohol in his or her blood, and sometimes as low as .05 percent. This is only for people 21 years or older. If you are under 21 and caught with a blood content of .01, under the new law (SB 689) as of January 1, 1994 your license will be suspended for one year. There is no safe way to drink and drive. Your skills can be impaired with a blood alcohol content (BAC) of only .02 percent (equivalent of one 12-oz. beer, a 4-oz. glass of wine, or a 1 1/4-oz. shot of 80-proof liquor). BAC tests measure the percent of alcohol in apersons blood based upon grams of alcohol per 100 milliliters of blood or grams of alcohol per 210 liters of breath. These tests are performed by taking a blood, breath or urine sample. The test is your choice unless the facility cannot perform a certain test. If you didn't already know you gave written consent for chemical testing for alcohol or drugs on your drivers license application or renewal form. Did you know that 64 percent of passenger vehicle drivers who are fatally injured between 9 PM and 6 AM have BACs at or above .10 percent (the old legal limit). Drivers with BACs above .15 percent who drive on weekend nights risk a 380 times higher chance of being killed in a single vehicle crash than non drinking drivers. For the average male (170-189 lbs.) that's about 1.5 drinks an hour. And for the average woman (110129 lbs.) you're at risk after 1 drink an hour. And if you're tired, drink on an empty stomach, have strong drinks, or take other drugs including medicine, alcohol could further impair your driving skills and judgment. WHAT HAPPENS WHEN I G ET CAUGHT? Once an officer believes you are under the influence of alcohol or drugs, he or she will have you perform some field coordination tests. If the officer feels that you have failed the tests or you refused to take them, i t's off to jail you go. Once at the jail you are given the chance to pick the test you want to take. After that, you get booked, fingerprinted, and given a nice colorful plastic bracelet. Did I fail to mention they take all your personal items including your shoe laces and belts? Then you are placed in a dirty cell with some interesting characters. Later you have to make that embarrassing call for someone to come and pick you up. Plan on about five hours of time spent in jail, and only if you are arrested for DUI of alcohol. If you kill or injure someone or have some other charge, plan on not going to work for awhile.

He who conquers himself is mighty. — Lao Tse "Louis Farrakhan is a Problem" Doris and Alex Padilla Contributing Writers So we again find ourselves battling over racial issues. America's obsession with race continues, and as usual, ignorance and paranoia persist. Unfortunately, our racial dilemma only surfaces, or is given heightened media attention in a negative context, and only when America is forced to address it. "Louis Farrakhan is a problem." So begins the cover story of the Feb. 28, 1994 issue of Time Magazine. While most can see an agend of racist ideology in Minister Farrakhan's views, the real question should be, "Why is America so concerned at this time?" Is it that we as a society are moving towards more racial tolerance and such words are offensive? Is it that the "political correctness" age that we so gladly subscribe to, allowsno room for such verbiage? Or is it that such words coming from a group like the Nations of Islam are just too forceful? When an organization through a charismatic leader like Farrakhan fills up the seats of Madison Square Garden, the Los Angeles Sports Arena and other major public entertainment venues, people take notice. When an organized security force can combat drugs and crime in the most crime-ridden city areas where the local police departments are powerless, heads turn. When a group can reach into our prisons and successfully rehabilitate discarded individuals, something is definitely going down. Farrakhan certainly speaks about fact. African Americans have been struggling for social equality and economic independence in America since its conception. Farrakhan states that his goal is not to teach hate. The main focus of his argument calls for change in social perspective for African Americans. To learn true "freedom" in America requires economic control over oneself, and collective, or group control of community businesses. This is sound strategy, and to these considerations, Farrakhan does speak for African Americans. However, in promoting more hate and discourse among ethnic groups, Farrakhan does not represent the voice of most African Americans. For African Americans to take the hate that has been so bountifully served upon them in America and deflect it upon another ethnic group is counterproductive, and we understand that. The irony continues to be America's lack of understanding the obvious. If hate is being promoted in the African American community, it certainly does not come from Farrakhan, The Nations of Islam, or any of its members. America only needs to look at the fabric of its societal framework to see the seeds of this deadly virus. If there is a problem with Louis Farrakhan, it rests with those organizations in America that do not wish to see any unity or real progress made by the African American. Until we discover our inaccuracies in attitude and judgment towards each other, and venture toward a change in understanding each American, we shall continue in ignorance and remain a flawed nation.

Videogames? For the student lounge. Give me a break. Are we really serious about our reputation in the academic community? Do we intend to uphold our reputation as a challenging academic campus? Not by providing vidiot entertainment in the lounge. What is wrong with installing a television in the lounge that could serve to provide us with news, Discovery channel, soaps for the truly deprived or any other manner of dubious entertainment? Who is paying for these games? They aren't free, and I certainly would hate to think that any portion of my already excessive fees were being used to provide the students with mindless and idiotic entertainment. If we are overly concerned with entertaining the students, why not simply devote a portion of the computer labs to computer games? At least students with the urge to entertain themselves would pick up some computer skills. I personally feel that video games have no redeeming social value and they do not belong on the campus of a school that is attempting to make its mark on the cutting edge of academia. Unless, of couse, we are not. I do not come to school here to be entertained. I come to get an education. Maybe if more students were to rethink their priorities, they might see that the games have no place on campus. Susan Gehrke Student Lounge TYirned into a Playground Dear Editor: The other day, I stepped into the student lounge to read a bit before class. What I found upon entering was a pool table, three video games, and fewer students using the room to study than was previously the case. What has happened to the student lounge? It's been turned into a playground. If you believe, as I do, that a college campus should primarily concern itself with creating an atmosphere conducive to learning, then you would probably agree that this is not the best way to use the lounge. This campus has the advantage of having an atmosphere that centers around education and a studentbody that is bent on academic achievement, but the arrival of these games lessens this advantage. I've talked to several friends on campus, and I hear much the same thing. That is, that i t's a waste of space, and almost embarrassing. While I, personally, have a soft spot for a good game of pool, I sincerely doubt that is the best use for our lounge. And, I wouldn't be completely honest if I said I have no problem with video games such as Mortal Kombat, but do we want to spend our valuable and limited space on these devices? I would argue that we do not, and I suspect that those students who do make use of the lounge would agree. What students need on campus is a place to study in some degree of silence, that is, without the noise of the Dome, while, at the same time, being able to drink a cup of coffee or have a sandwich. The study lounge was the best place to do this, until Mortal Combat came into the picture. Now, the students that used this room for that purpose are combating the noise of the Dome, or pooling at the tables just outside of it. The decision has been made, for now. But we can change it by gathering 200 signatures in order to place the issue on the spring ballot. Then, we can all be involved in deciding how to best utilizerthe student lounge. Barry Walker Lexis/Nexis isn't Perfect Yet -- f iii Dear Editor: I applaud Mr. Holmes' letter! I see that he is as concerned as we in the library about the computer competency requirement. We recognize that students need extra help in using the computer resources in the library. Our concern led us to hire and train students to serve as Information Assistants (see Pride article October 22,1993). We believe that by educating and providing assistance through the Information Assistant Program, students will learn to evaluate their searches better, limit their printing to what is essential for their research, and learn to appreciate the capabilities of downloading. We are also environmentally conscious and unfortunately students do tend to abuse printing so we continually encourage students to download their searches to a disk. The library has even been selling disks at cost to make it easier for students. Mr. Holmes does not have all the facts straight about Lexis/Nexis and the printing/ downloading problem. The incident recounted by Mr. Holmes is true; students have been known to print reams of paper from Lexis/Nexis. At the end of fall semester the library inquired about the possibility of disablingthe printing function from Lexis. We were told that this was not possible. Much later and totally unrelated to our inquiries, Mead Data (producer of the database) informed us that they would no longer support the download document feature.

"T ith the box-office success ofJurassic Park \ J \ J and the critical success ofSchindler'sList, T T this has been the year of Spielberg, and there is little doubt that the upcoming Academy Awards ceremony will do anything but put the icing on the cake. Schindler's List has more nominations than any other film, and Spielberg has captured all the other awards (Golden Globe, Director's Guild) that usually serve as indicators of Oscar performance. Also, the Academy has shunned Spielberg for years and Schindler serves as a perfect opportunity to make up for past exclusion while at the same time rewarding the socially conscious, epicfilmmakingOscar so loves. It is unfortunate, though, that so many otherfilmsfar more cinematically interesting and daring than Spielberg's work will be shut out in the process; BEST PICTURE Nominees: Schindler's List, The Piano, Remains of the Day, In the Name of the Father, The Fugitive Not much suspense here, though this is a fairly wellrounded selection of qualityfilmsthat (with the exception of The Piano) break very little new cinematic ground. Short Cuts and Fearless were far superior to most nominated films but not nearly as accessible. The Academy went out on a limb last year by choosing the unsettling masterpiece Unforgiven, but expect no such luck this year. What Will Win: Schindler's List What Should Win: The Piano BEST DIRECTOR Nominees: Spielberg, Jane Campion {The Piano), Robert Altman (Short Cuts), James Ivory (Remains of the m <m m.*6r.t*m. <* mm i m < * ~jt j r ^ «t & jm m. s» Jt hm -nt jr-*. her career in The Age of Innocence. Bassett and Channing Day), James Sheridan (In the Name of the Father) Nice to see Altman nominated here, though he has little gave powerful, engrossing performances but Hunter blows chance of victory. Jonathan Demme's fine direction in away all competition for her passionate, complex portrayal of Philadelphia and Fred Schepsi's work on Six Degrees of a mute pianist. Who Will Win: Hunter Separation were unjustly shut out, but Campion deservedly Who Should Win: Hunter makes her mark as only the second woman to be nominated BEST SUPPORTING ACTOR for best director. Nominess: Tommy Lee Jones (The Fugitive), Pete Who Will Win: Spielberg Postlethwaite (In the Name of the Father), John Malkovich Who Should Win: Altman (In the line of Fire), Leonardo DiCaprio (What's Eating BEST ACTOR Gilbert Grape), Ralph Fiennes (Schindler's List). Nominees: Tom Hanks (Philadelphia),r Laurence This is the category with the most talent. Jones stole Fishburne (What's Love Got to Do With It?), Anthony Hopkins (Remains of the Day), Daniel Day-Lewis (In the The Fugitive from the.talented Harrison Ford and newcomer Fiennes bitathed life into Schindler. Postlethwaite was Name of the Father), Liam Neeson (Schindler's List), This is the toughest category to call, though Hanks remarkably moving without being the least bit sentimental. Who Will Win: Fiennes looks like the favorite for his performance as a homosexual Who Should Win: A 3 way Jones-Fienneslawyer dying of AIDS. His co-star Denzel Washington was 'X just as impressive, but the Academy has always loved tragic Postlethwaite tie, J; BEST SUPPORTING ACTRESS star turns mid giving Hanks the award would make up for the Nominees: Holly Hunter (The Firm), Emma Thompfact that the film was slighted in other major categories. Fishburne was awesome as Ike Turner, and his surprise son (In the Name of the Father), Winona Ryder (Age of Innocence), Anna Paquin (The Piano), Rosie Perez (Fearnomination makes the race even more competitive. less). Who Will Win: Tom Hanks Hunter and Thompson make history as the V>st pair of Who Should Win: Daniel Day-Lewis actresses to go head to head in both the lead ana supporting BEST ACTRESS Nominees: Emma Thompson (Remains of the Day), categories, but neither will bring home the statue here. Eleven Angela Bassett (What's Love Got to Do With It), Debra year old Paquin was charming in The Piano, but Madeline Winger '(&hadowlands), Holly Hunter (The Piano), Stockard Stowe in Short Cuts and the entire ensemble cast of the Joy Luck Club were unfairly-slighted. Channing (Six Degrees of Separation). The biggest suprise here is the denial of Q$car perennial Who-Will Win: Winona Ryder Michelle Pfeiffer, who gave perhaps the best performance of Who Should # i n : Rosie Perez �FunThings to Do in San Diego County North County Repertory Theatre — for a change Amy Cubbison Contributing Writer Are you tired of doing the same thing every weekend—crazy clubs, mundane movies or drab dinners? Are you stuck in rut? Why notjump off the bandwagon and sharpen the creative side of your mind? Solana Beach has a well-kept secret that is slowly but surely beginning to leak out. Tucked away in Lomas Santa Fe Plaza just off of the Lomas Santa Fe exit is the North County Repertory Theatre. Believe it or not, the theatre has been around since 1982. It was started by Olive andTomBlakistone. The theatre is charming and quaint and holds 185 people. Although a non-equity theatre, the North County Rep, as locals call it, produces professional quality plays. The actors receive a pittance compared to other major theatres but actors vie to be in the plays because of the high caliber productions. Plays range from comedies such as Neil Simon's Biloxi Blues, to more dramatic productions such as the recentM. Butterfly. Every play is fresh and new with an interesting flair. Having attended numerous plays at the North County Rep, I have never been dissappointed. One of the funniest was a crazy comedy by Neil Simon (a favorite of the theatre) called Rumors. I ached from laughing so much. There is a new play every couple of months. Tickets are regularly priced at $16 but with a student I.D., they are only $12. The theatre is in a terrific location, next to a cute coffee house that features home-baked goodies and music. The Samurai Restaurant and Froglanders Yogurt are also in the plaza. And, there is plenty of parking! - So... what does all this mean to you? Not only does the theatre have plays, they also offer acting lessons for adults and children. Auditions are open to everyone and students are often used in productions. If the idea sounds good but you're tight on money, you can volunteer as an usher and acquire free tickets. This summer the North County Rep will be launching their new children's theatre. Currently featured is a delightful romantic comedy by Wendy Wasserstdp, I$n'tlt Ro-« mantic. It is very refreshing^iist in time for Spring. So, next time you can't think of what to do, give the North County Repertory Theatre a try. You might find it a very pleasant surprise.

Mayor Lee B. Thibadeau, who proclaimed Feb. 26 Volunteer Day in San Marcos, along with Ernest Zomalt, Executive Vice President of CSUSM, will open the event at 9 AM at CSUSM's Dome. Members of student organizations will donate their time to work on a wide range of community projects. Volunteer activities include; • accounting students helping low income people with tax preparation; • history club students preparing an exhibit for the San Marcos Historical Society and Museum; • three student organizations, along with a Girl Scout troop, sprucing up Discovery Lake Park and creating a nature display ; • 11 associations, plus a multicultural education class, giving campus tours and workshops for invited San Marcos public school students and Boys and Girls Club members, encouraging them to continue their eduction; • a club accompanying at-risk youth on a Mt.

The answer is CSUSM's Seventh Annual University Ball. The black-tie dinner-dance and silent auction will be held at the Sheraton Grande Toirey Pines in La Jolla on April 9. Connie L. Anderson of San Marcos is chair of the event. "The University Ball has been a bright light on the social calendar of North County since 1988, and this year's ball promises to be the most exciting event of the new year,' said Anderson. This year's theme is "Building a Dream." . The goal of the event is to raise $30,000 for the University. Proceeds from the ball go towards supporting CSUSM projects that need additional resources such as scholarships for deserving students, seed money for emerging programs, books for the library, and important community events such as the American Indian Pow Wow and the International Festival. " Supporting C SUSM is such a worthy cause. The money raised by the ball provides the University a margin ofexxcellence that cannot otherwise be achieved. Just a few dollars can make a difference in whether a student stays in college or is forced to quit. I am glad to live in a community where people believe in education, and more importantly, believe in helping young people," said Anderson. Anderson recruited a team of community leaders as the executive committee to coordinate the ball. "The committee is already hard at work seeking donations, expanding the program, and designing decorations. To assist us in defraying expenses of the ball, the committee members are calling on individuals and businesses to provide underwriting," said Anderson. This year, a silent auction will be added to the evening's events. The newly formed CSUSM Alumni Association will be coordinating the auction for the Ball. Provided by Hoehn Motors Inc., the premier auction item will be a 1994 Suzuki Sidekick. Individual seats are $150 or $1,500 for a table of 10. Special "Star" tables are available for $2,000 for a table of 10. For information about tickets and donations, call Jane Lynch at 752-4406. Every year about 9,000 children and young adults die from leukemia and other fatal blood diseases. For many the only hope for survival is a bone marrow transplant. Nearly 70% cannot find a suitable match within their own families. These patients need to find unrelated donors. The chance that a patient will find a matching, unrelated donor in the general population is between one in 20,000 to one in a million. Because tissue types are inherited, and different tissue types are found in different ethnic groups, the chances of finding an unrelated donor vary according to the patients' ethnic into tag Join us on Saturday, March 10th • ^ T h e W riting C e n t e r * * Avoid the end of the semester crunch.

A potential bone marrow donor must be between the ages of 18 and 55, healthy with no history of cancer, asthma, serious heart or circulatory disease and within 20 percent of their suggested weight limit.

The Solid Waste Reduction Planning Committee and Mashburn Waste and Recycling Services will be conducting a waste characterization Thursday, March 10, from Noon to 1:30 PM in the upper faculty/staff parking lot. A waste characterization is part of the campus recycling efforts and is a thorough, comprehensive sorting, categorization and weighing of materials from the disposal and recycling streams. Even though CSUSM has an aggres- sive recycling program in place, waste characterizations have to be done periodically to identify additional items which can possibly be diverted from going to the landfill. A light lunch will be served prior to the waste characterization. In order to plan for the lunch, please call Support Services, extension 4520, by March 4 if you wish to attend and/or participate.

While students on the fast track to graduation may view the writing requirement as an unnecessary hurdle, is this the case? When we asked two founding faculty members about the reasoning behind the CSUSM writing requirement, here is what they said: Dr. Larry Cohen, Founding Faculty, Biology: "I wholeheartedly support the writing requirement at CSUSM. To a large degree, we seem to think with words. If a concept is understood, one should be able to describe it to another person. If one cannot explain something, perhaps one does not understand it. The writing requirement at CSUSM fosters improved communication and thinking skills. However, I have never felt that writing across the entire curriculum made sense. For example, large seminars or classes heavily dependent upon symbolic concepts might better be exempted." Dr. Carolyn Mahoney, Director, Math Program: "As a founding faculty member, I believe very strongly that we should have a writing requirement in all subjects. It exposes students to, and gives them familiarity with the expository and technical writing that is necessary to do good math. In particular, writing helps students process their learning and encourages them to think more clearly about what they do and do not understand. All math faculty incorporate writing in either weekly journals and short papers that reflect a student's understanding of mathematical notions or in term papers which explain and/ or extend classroom discussions." Clearly, sound reasoning guided the establishment of the CSUSM writing requirement. The requirement was not designed to wreak havoc on our lives or distance us from our families, but to foster the critical thinking skills and analytic agility fundamental to intellectual growth. Most of us entering professional life after graduation will be required to draft reports and resumes f or years to come. And our ability to communicate effectively will to a large degree determine our eventual success. The next issue will present interviews with CSUSM alumni who have already seen their investment in the writing requirement pay off big in career opportunities and graduate school admissions. These CSUSM alumni attribute their post-graduate success to improved communication skills honed through our university's challenging and innovative writing requirement that has and will continue to place CSUSM graduates a step above the rest. • TEACHER EDUCATION FAIR March 2 ,2-5 PM will be a ttended b y s everal s chools, including: Anaheim City Schools Cajon Valley USD Chula Vista Elementary Escondido USD Fallbrook USD Lemon Grove S D Los Angeles Unified S D Murrieta Valley USD Oceanside USD Ramona USD San Diego USD Vista USD Cal State University, San Marcos will of employers and be flexible because you hold its Career Fair for S pring' 94 on Wednes- may encounter cancellations, crowded conday, March 2 and Thursday, March 3, in the ditions and lines to talk to certain employers.

Student Survives Fire, in Need of Basics Recently one of our students, a single mother with an eight-year old boy, lost her home and all of her belongings in a fire. Fortunately, the student and her son were able to escape the fire without injury. However, this loss has left her in dire need of many items. Donations of cash are welcome as all funds earmarked for tuition, etc. were required to replace many of the daily musts. Therefore, if you are able to help with any of the items listed below or monetarily, please drop your donations at the Office of the Associate Dean of Students, Craven Hall 5115 or call 752-4935. There will be a small get-together to give the items to the student on Tuesday, Mar. 1, 5-6:30 PM in Commons 206. Please join us. The following items are needed: Women's clothing: pants, skirts, etc. size 16; blouses, coats, sweaters size 18; boy's clothing: shoe size 1; pants and shirts size 8-10; toys, books, puzzles; a desk or small table and chair; lamp, bookcase or shelves or stackable crates for books; dresser, iron and television.

Not only is she an active member of the council, but Sadova hopes to make a run for President of the student council next fall. Michelle, an English major, hopes to further her studies in public administration. She anticipates graduating in spring '95. As an active student representative at CSUSM since the fall of '93, Michelle came into the student council with the philosophy of "serving students currently attending CSUSM." Last semester, Michelle served as Cal State Student Association (CSSA) representative. As this campus' CSSA representative, Michelle attended monthly meetings held at other CSU campuses throughout the state to discuss matters of importance to all CSU students such as campus base fees, legislation and health issues. The CSSA also reviewed Board of Trustees' mandates and their effects on all CSU campuses. Michelle was responsible for bringing yoga to campus which led to forming the Recreation Committee this semester. "We're looking to provide a variety of recreational activities at reasonable prices and times convenient for students." The Recreation Committee is hoping to bring other classes and activities such as martial arts, self-defense and aerobics, which is scheduled to Associated Students Need Volunteers for Spring '94 Elections Five volunteers are needed to serve on the Elections Committee for the Associated Students Spring '94 elections. This committee implements and oversees elections for the president and 12 student council representatives; two each from the College of Arts and Sciences, Business Administration, and Education; two Post Baccalaureate; and four undergraduate reps-at-large. Students serving on this committee cannot run for office. A chairperson, personnel, policy and procedure, publicity, and facilities coordinators serve on the committee. If you have expertise in any of these areas, or are interested in becoming involved in the election proceedings, please advise A.S. president, Richard Molloy, in Commons 205 or call 752-4990. m£ fAijfefc begin next week. One of Michelle's goals is to provide the opportunity for CSUSM students to teach these classes. Michelle enjoys communicating with students and keeping them informed about current legislation and issues affecting CSU students. In addition to her studies, and participation on the Associated Students Council, Michelle is actively involved in other campus and community activities. As President of the Earth Club, Michelle and other members of the club are preparing for the Second Annual Earth Day event scheduled for April 21 and April 23. In addition to Earth Day activities, the Earth Club works on environmental clean-up projects in the community and local beaches. "We'd like to see hiking and walking trails around campus for students to use and appreciate," says Sadova. Both the AS Recreation Committee and the Earth Club are actively supporting the development of campus hiking trails. If you have any student or campus concerns or would like to learn more about the Associated Students Council, call 752-4990 or stop in at the AS office in Commons 205.

It has met with favorable comments from stu- dents and staff alike. Coming in March is the semi-annual book sale during the campus Indian Pow Wow. If you would like to donate any books to the sale, please call Cherie Boiling at 471-7442. The question most often asked is "Where does the money from the sale go?" It helps to provide the student book scholarshs each semester at the univeristy. Plan to attend the Pow Wow and our book sale on March 19 from 9 AM to 6 PM in the faculty/staff parking lot. We look forward to seeing everyone there! In addition to library projects, the book scholarships, and book sales, the Friends of the Library also sponsor lectures on a variety of subjects. The Friends recently sponsored a talk given by Bridget BaileyMeier on medicine in the African-American Community. On March 17,1994, the Friends will sponsor Dr. Patricia Seleski, Professor of History who will be speaking on peace prospects in Northern Ireland. The third lecture the Friends will sponsor this spring is Dr. Vasanthi Shenoy, Professor of Sociology, who will speak on education for the women of India on April 26. If you are interested in finding out more about the Friends of the Library or joining their ranks, call Betty Knoff, president of the Friends, at 744-7084. Huff Awarded Fulbright Scholarship Betty Huff, CSUSM's director of enrollment services was recently awarded a Fulbright Scholarship to study in Germany. Huff is one of 25 recipients from universities across the country who will participate in the Fulbright International Education Seminar for Administrators. The four-week seminar, held in April and May, introduces university administrators to a variety of academic and governmental institutions. It focuses on current issues in German higher education and international academic exchange. The program is designed for administrators of international services, academic affairs, student affairs, and admissions. It includes visits to universities and cities in Bonn, Berlin, and the new Eastern states of Germany. Huff has been with CSUSM for 4 years. Besides admissions, she also is responsible for internationl student advising and serves on the University Global Affairs Committee. "This scholarship is an excellent opportunity to gain greater awareness of other cultures. As CSUSM continues to pursue its mission of international focus and global awareness, we will need to develop more programs that assist students in the transition to education in other countries. The Fulbright program was designed to help administrators in this effort," said Huff of the scholarship. �Students Get Active in Health Education iWiiilfictioii f W r i t p t «; : ••• ; v| •• i S^Wjjatis the jbighooplah we keephear- diameter.

It is an infection of the liver caused by the Hepatitis B virus (HB V). This virus is hardy and highly infectious. About 300,000 hew cases are diagnosed each year. It is 100 times more infectious than HTV (Human Immunodeficiency Virus), the virus that causes AIDS. Like AIDS, it has no cure but the good news is that it can be prevented with a vaccine. Hepatitis B may strike silently and cause unknown damage to one's liver. Symptoms of Hepatitis B can be similar to an intestinal virus and be very mild. Others have more severe symptoms with nausea, loss of appetite, fatigue, dark urine and possibly yellowing of the skin and eyes. Also, some people become very ill and can't work or go to school for weeks or months. Because it is a viral infection there is no antibiotic to reverse its course.

IMPROVE YOUR LOOKS, HEALTH AND POPULARITY. QUIT SMOKING. D1992, American Heart Association �Learning Self-Defense Newest WxMrcise Crane : ^^imercize^'A Susan Mendes, LVN Health Education Assistant On Thursday evening, February 10, I attended the self-defense class which was sponsored by the Public Safety Department and taught by Officer Mario Sainz. Since I had never taken a self-defense class before, I didn't know quite1 what to expect. The instructions said to wear loose, comfortable clothing and sooks, as we would practice without shoes. I had decided to take the class after reading about local women who were kidnapped while out shopping, running errands, and minding their own business. This made me realize that crimes can happen anywhere, to anyone. My classmates were all women who, like myself, wanted to know what to do in a dangerous situation. Officer Sainz started out by talking about possible dangers on campus, such as deserted stairwells and elevators. What to do if attacked in an elevator? "Push the emergency alarm button!" he advised. "Someone will respond." He also reminded us that Public Safety now operates 24 hours a day to respond to calls for help, and that they are able to provide escorts from campus buildings to the parking areas, which is especially important at night. Sainz pointed out that it is a good idea to locate the silver emergency phones found in the campus buildings before you need one. He explained that the phones on the blue light poles in the parking lot connect directly to dispatch and do not require coins. He said that the officers are glad to help students who lock keys in their car or who need a jump-start. After discussing how to avoid danger, he began to demonstrate what to do if you are attacked or threatened. Using movements based on Karate principles, we learned how to side-step and use the attacker's momentum to the victim's advantage. Sainz showed us how to resist a frontal attack and how to escape if attacked from behind. He explained that criminals look for victims, and talked of the importance of assertiveness. I was surprised by two things that evening. First, that you could learn so much in one class, and second, I was surprised that more students didn't attend. This was one of a series of classes that will be offered on campus free of charge for students or staff members. It is a wonderful resource, and I would highly recommend that everyone take at least one class, especially if you attend classes at night, shop in the evenings, or even buy gas or run errands after dark. I t's easy to go on believing "that it couldn't happen to me." Let's not wait until a crime happens on our quiet campus to become prepared.

This February their efforts paid o ff, and the Center for Decision Making opened with its state-of- the-art computer system on-line and running. The two men began by submitting a grant proposal to Hewlett Packard that would provide them with the necessary equipment to establish a group computer facility at CSUSM. Hewlett Packard furnished Jessup and Hinton with $ 150,000 worth of computer equipment that resulted in 30 computers, a laser printer and computer software. Further work was necessary to locate physical space f or the equipment and comply with all the regulations that accompany aproject of this size. With the equipment and space secured, the facility became a reality. Located on the second floor of Craven Hall, the Center for Decision Making appears very similar to corporate board rooms; however, this room includes the addition of computers. The computers are recessed into the table providing a sleek, modern, unobtrusive look. However, it is the software known as G roup S upport S ystem, o r "groupware" that integrates the computers and makes this center different from typical conference rooms. Groupware allows individuals or groups to work together forming decisions. Viewing the same information, members can make comments or suggestions anonymously to the entire group. After suggestions and comments have been entered, the groupware can easily arrange the data and help the members form a consensus. Companies have discovered this new technology has advantages. Jessup noted, "One of the reasons this has become so popular is being able to do things anonymously. Businesses have found they get a lot more candid free-flowing exchange of ideas and opinions when they use this software, as opposed to the traditional face-to-face meeting environment." While this software facilitates group meetings at CSUSM, it also expands o ther o ptions. Members meeting at CSUSM can include groups in other geographical locations. The software links groups from several different businesses or universities, and allow them to form collaborative decisions. Jessup also explained that meetings do not need to occur at the same time but could occur over the course of several weeks. A meeting could be initiated, and members could respond at their convenience. Decisions could be made at a later date based on the received input. A lthough the g roupware helps groups hold effective meetings, there is the potential to depend too heavily on technology. Business conferences could become too impersonal. Jessup explained that meeting facilitators play an important role in this type of center. Facilitators ensure that groups alternate between software and f ace-to-face interaction to achieve effective results. Besides understanding group dynamics, the facilitator must know how to use the group support system software. A great deal of the success of this computer center at CSUSM will depend on the skills of the meeting facilitator. While the center at CSUSM can help groups meet effectively, it can also provide other functions. Jessup explained that the Center can be used for research. Experiments and studies will occur to observe how groups and individuals behave when they use this type Bernie Hinton and Len J essup, the masterminds behind the Center for Decision Making of technology. The findings can then be used to develop software, and help companies implement this type of facility and software into their own businesses. The Center will also be used as a teaching tool. Jessup stated, "We plan to really integrate this within our business courses and within other courses at the campus." The creation of this center has already been a learning experience f or s tudents at C SUSM. T he groupware technology has already been running in the student computer labs, and Jessup has instructed courses in operating this software. During these classes, students have developed marketing projects for this type of center, trained as meeting facilitators for running group sessions, and helped do coding and programming using this innovative software. Jessup noted that the students have contributed substantially to the Center's development. Design of the C enter's tables and chairs has included the students' involvement. The quality of the Center will encourage businesses to use this facility, thereby providing additional revenue for the university. While businesses will be able to reap benefits from holding effective meetings, students will also have the ability to learn and experience the latest technology of the business world. �Earth Club Plans for Earth Days '94 Roy Latas I^SfiWtT DESIGN : environmental groups and vendors of ecologically oriented items.

Aguilar Contributing Writer A volunteer is someone who enters a service out of his/her free will. On November 16, 1967, Bertha Walker became an important volunteer when she joined the United States Marine Corps. Impressed by the confidence of the Marine officers at the enlisting office, Bertha decided to join the Marine Corps, and at the age of 18, she left her hometown of Pittsview, Alabama to serve in Okinawa, Japan, and Hawaii. The initiative which Bertha demonstrated as an 18-year-old further developed in the military as her leadership roles provided her with various responsibilities. Working as the Combined Federal Campaign Coordinator for her unit, she coordinated the collection of charitable contributions, served as a liaison between a Marine and the base, and worked with the Financial O ffice to resolve pay problems. While fulfilling her military duties, Bertha continued to pursue her educational goals. Majoring in history and minoring in religion, she received her Associates of General Studies Degree from Chaminade University in Honolulu, Hawaii. After 23 years of active duty, Bertha retired as a First Sergeant. She sought to complete her education at California State University, San Marcos where she also wanted to get involved in extracurricular activities. Since spring 1992, Bertha has been a member of the Pan-African Student Alliance, and she has been a member and past director of the History Club. Last spring, Bertha assisted in Student Affirmative Action's Student Leadership Conference. Then, in the fall semester, she served as the stage manager for the African-American students and Pan-Af- rican Student Alliance's production of the play, "For Colored Girls Who have Considered Suicide When the Rainbow is Enuf." Bertha Walker's initiative and leadership continue to guide her actions within her community. "I feel that the AfricanAmerican student should be more visible on campus, and I feel that CSUSM should be visible in the community." "My participation in Volunteer Day is my way of practicing what I preach." As the Logistics Chairperson f or Volunteer Day on February 26, Bertha has been extremely visible throughout the preparatory stages of the event recruiting other volunteers and overseeing security, setting up, parking, registration, greeters/ hosts, and tours. As she tries to make sure the participating youth and volunteers experience a smooth day at CSUSM, Bertha Walker will continue to maintain high visibility. �In matters of conscience, the law of the majority has no place. — Gandhi Illegal Immigration is not the Problem By Thomas Lee Huntington Staff Writer Last semester, the Political Science Association sponsored a NAFTA debate. It was a well-organized, i nformative'affair, bringing together a labor representative, an economist, an environmentalist and a representative from the San Diego Chamber of Commerce to discuss the virutes or flaws of the hotly debated trade agreement. The participants all gave prepared statements and the floor was then opened up for questions from the audience. A man sitting next to me was the first to shoot up his hand, and it was immediately clear from his body language that he felt very strongly about, well, something. "How can we enter into a trade agreement," he began, his voice shaking, "with a country that doesn't respect the sovereignty of our border!" His voice rose dramatically at the last statement. He had come armed with statistics, pseudo-facts, and anger to spare; his tirade was just getting started. The moderator and the other presenters attempted to steer the debate back towards real trade issues, but this spectator's single-minded determination was unsinkable. Every question became an indictment of California's immigration policy, and passion quickly displaced logic. The debate ended on a precarious note with tempers still flaring. NAFTA is now history, but the fear and ignorance surrounding the immigration debate in this state has grown. Legislators and "concerned" citizens like the gentleman that graced our campus that fine day continue to propagate the principle that illegal immigration from Mexico is somehow at the root of all our social, cultural and economic problems. We need to beef up the police presence at the border, cut off all government aid to illegal immigrants, even build a wall if necessary. Anything and everything, some immigration "experts" would have us believe, must be done to stop the tidal wave of thieves and freeloaders currently assaulting the shores of our great country. The problems with this kind of thinking are too numerous to mention here. Suffice it to say the immigration debate has been blown out of proportion by a group of selfrighteous policital activiists who are motivated by fear and racism, that this is just another example of politicians who are afraid to address real, substantive issues for fear of offending aportion of the voting public jumping on the immigration bandwagon. Illegal immigration is not threatening the fabric of our society. This is a country that was made great by the hard work and dedication of immigrants from all over the world who were attempting to escape the same kinds of conditions that the Mexicans who cross our border are escaping. Western European immigrants, anyway, have entered into the American folklore as tireless hard workers who helped shape the American dream. Chinese, Russian, Japanese, Korean and Mexican immigrants have always suffered the slings and arrows of a society that saw them as lazy and worthless. The current immigration furor is no exception. Despite the fact that the vast majority of illegal immigrants that come to this country are tireless, dedicated workers who actually contribute a great deal to our ailing economy, we are encouraged to see them as the problem. They are potential scapegoats for everything, and certain legislators would have us believe that all our problems could be solved by simply keeping them out. On the contrary, we could learn a thing or two by observing and emulating these hard-working, s elf-sufficient, industrious people that embody the ideals of rugged individualism and self-reliance that Americans once held dear. The problems in California (and there are many) are due to Californians and can be solved only by Californians. Mexico is a convenient scapegoat, but, alas, a false one. "Good fences make good neighbors," a well-meaning farmer repeats in RobertFrost's poem The Mending Wall. Like the farmer, we have taken that phrase to heart despite its obvious irrelevance. By strengthening the fence, we believe we can somehow make our own crops grow faster and stronger.

The variety of events that have occurred have featured informative lectures, films, and various types of musical formats. Black History Month initially began in the early 1900's under its founder, Carter G. Woodson. Woodson, an African-American historian, first initiated Negro History Week, which became Negro History Month, and is now recognized as Black History Month. Dr. Thompson, a political science professor explained that Woodson's purpose was to elevate the status and self-esteem of AfricanAmericans. He stated that Black History Month was also "toeducate and expose dominant groups, particularly whites, to the rich history, rich culture of African-Americans." During that period of history, Africn Americans were "subordinated in terms of culture, status, economy and equality." White culture rationalized their oppression of black Americans by claming the inferiority of their race. The revelation of African-Americans' rich culture and heritage would dispute this myth and could establish the legitimacy of African-American equality. Thompson explained that the activities scheduled for Black History Month complement the mission statement of the university. CSUSM's mission statement promotes an appreciation for, and study of, diversity in American society. The events were meant to provide an understanding and appreciation for African-American culture. Students interviewed in Dr. Jill Watts' History 335 class, which studies AfricanAmerican history, discussed their opinions about the events offered on campus. One student offered, "The events we have here on campus and in the community help to dispel stereotypes." Another student explained that these events "bring together and disband some barriers between cultures when we have Black History Month or other cultural awareness months." However, not all of the students agreed that the events really promoted understanding between cultures. One student felt that many people regarded Black History Month activities only as entertainment events. The student explained that often the majority of the audience attending black performances are white. She said, " They've always come out to see us perform. That h asn't changed with Black History Month or any other kind of month. The problem is, do they really get something out of it? Are we really giving them what they need to be more educated." While the students questioned whether Black History Month events should focus more on education rather than entertainment, one student explained that personal perspective on these events will probably cause differences of opinion. She explained, " It's a little b it of everything encompassed—education, entertainment. It means something different to everybody. Certainly to me being black is going to be somewhat deeper f or me, more of a pride month." David McKenzie, president of the PanAfrican Student Alliance, commented that the goals of his c lub's involvement with Black History Month have been primarily focused on education. Working with other associations on campus, this club has offered a series of lectures and films that have included professional staff to handle discussions and questions that arise following the lecture or film. McKenzie stressed the importance of education in the activities that promote Black History Month. "Education helps people understand that there is still a long way to go. There is still basically inequality between African-Americans and the rest of the dominant culture." McKenzie concluded that, "Black History Month was started because there was a failure of our education system to have the history of Black Americans or people of color, in traditional U.S. histoiy books. I would like to see us get to a point where we d on'tneedtodo this. Where it (black history) is included in the history with the general population and t here's no need to pick one month out of the year to say 'O.K. this is what w e've done in h istory'."

Friends of the Library, a community volunteer group, sponsored Bridget's informative talk on medicine and healthcare in the African-American community The Pan African Student Alliance is a student organization founded last year. The club was started by students from Africa, the United States and Caribbean nations.* The Pan African Student Alliance also incorporates n on-African-American m embers. Anyone who has an interest in AfricanAmerican history or progress is welcome to join the club. Club members keep abreast about issues that concern African-Americans at the local, national and international level. Club president, David McKenzie, also explained that since San Diego's North County lacks areas of concentration of African-Americans, the club serves a social function that allows people to get together. Club members also participate in the community by mentoring students of color in junior high school, and high school to help these students prepare for the transition to college. The Alliance has also been very active this month with the events that have occurred in honor of Black History Month.

AMERICAN HEART ASSOCIATION MEMORIALS & TRIBUTES 1-800- AHA-USA1 American Heart Association This space provided a s a public service. ©1993, American Heart Association �Generation X gets a Bite of Reality Thomas Lee Huntington Staff Writer Reality Bites is a smart, funny, insightful comedy about a group of friends who have no idea what to do with their lives after graduating from college. To label the film, as many critics have, a "Generation X " movie is to marginalize it, to insinuate that the filmmakers were only attempting to j ump on the media bandwagon by throwing in as much flannel, cappucino and slacker angst as possible. Indeed, all these elements are present in Reality Bites, but they are present because the movie is an honest account of life in the 9 0's, not because they are demographically pleasing to any particular focus group. The film transcends trend to speak to larger issues about alienation and the search for love in a meaningless world (issues that are surely not specific to twentynothings) and, judged by that criteria, Reality Bites manages to fall somewhere in between the comic and creative brilliance of The Graduate and the crass, cliched commercialism of St. Elmo's Fire. Far and away the f ilm's best feature is the funny, literate script by 23-year old Helen Childress. The dialogue is wellstructured, witty and true; full of throwaway references to everything from Hamlet to Three's Company but not the least bit condescending towards the audience. Childress captures the way that people talk to each other when they're not sure what they really mean, cloaking insecurity in sarcasm and hip bravado. The characters are fullbodied, complex and dimensional; they consistently surprise the audience and each other. Credit is also due the stellar cast, particularly Ethan Hawke and Janeane Garofalo. Hawke plays the resident cynic Troy, an out of work, out of energy philosophy major who threatens to turn any environment he enters into a "den of slack." Hawke is marvelously appealing; he manages to exude viciousness, vulnerability, intelligence and guilt without ever seeming artificial. Ditto Garofalo, who brings great comic energy and skill to her role. Winona Ryder is charming in the read role as a highly creative, intelligent college valedictorian who c an't get hired at Wienerschnitzel. There is an an obvious mutual attraction between Ryder and Hawke, and their avoidance and verbal sparring seem very realistic. These actors are a perfect match for the smart script, and in the early scenes when they are allowed to explore their characters without the strain of artificially imposed situations, the film is at its best. As the film progresses, though, a romantic triangle develops between Ryder, Hawke, and a well-meaning yuppie played by Ben Stiller (who also directs). Stiller is a highly skilled comical actor, and he manages to do extremely well with an endearingly inarticulate character that could easily have been turned into a stereotype. But the last 20 minutes of the film buy into conventional romantic movie sentiment, and in so doing loses the character-driven charm of the m ovie's first half. Reality Bites is at its best when it allows itself to be about nothing. It is a rare delight to see intelligent, imperfect humans struggling with the mysteries of life and each other. This film speaks to the concerns of its audience without trivializing them, and for that it should be treasured. P remieres March 5th TM iM From the animators of The Simpsons.

Presidential Youth Service Awards Know of any young people volunteering in the community? There are thousands of youths who donate their time and e ffort to make North County abetterplaceandCSUSM is seeking nominations for the President's Youth Service Awards to recognize their efforts. The President's Youth Service Awards were created by the White House O ffice of National Service and the Corporation of National and Community Service. Because of CSUSM's commitment to community service, the university was authorized to assist in identifying those young people whose volunteer efforts are a model for all. Each year CSUSM honors young people, ages 5-22, with the President's Awards or the National Award to recognize meaningful service to the community. To allow young people with different skill levels to compete fairly, the awards are presented in four age categories, 5 -8 years, 9 13 years, 14-17 years, and 18-22 years. The awards are given f or individual achievement, however, individuals who per- form community service as part of a group are eligible. The awards are designed to recognize voluntary, non-paid, community service and to r ecognize h ands-on s ervice; all fundraising activities are excluded from consideration. This year, the awards will recognize youths who show leadership in projects that focus on helping others to learn. We also understand that community service extends past the age of 22. Therefore, we are including CSUSM students in this recognition. Criteria are: exemplary achievement, ongoing involvement, community need, and building a service ethic. To be eligible, nominees must be North County residents, but they need not be U.S. citizens. Nominations are being accepted through Feb. 28. Your participation can help us to applaud the community work of our students. All nominees will be honored in arecognitiori ceremony at the university to be held Apr. 19, 6:30-8 PM.

Not exactly. Susan Brown is too busy overseeing a binding project or making sure direct mail brochures get out on time. Brown runs the Duplication Services Department at CSUSM. You may have seen her when y ou've stopped by Science Hall 209 to feed nickels into the self-serve copier when the copier in the Libraiy was tied up and you wanted to save five cents per page. The Duplication Services Department is a full-service operation designed to meet the needs of CSUSM faculty and staff (and when there is time, students). Students sometimes lose their patience at the self-serve copier while listening to the Duplications Services copiers complete 500page documents while they are still manually lifting the lid in between each of their 25 pages of class notes. Susan Brown feels the students' pain. Her staff is instructed to help students whenever time permits. They will help create transparencies for class presentations and fasten business presentations in a thermal tape or spiral binding. One of the main reasons Duplication Services c an't meet all students' needs is time, Brown says. Students generally need their copies right away. The Duplication Department has a 48-hour turn-around policy designed to account f or equipment failure and staffing. Despite the 48 hour policy, if you need a transparency, the department can generally finish it while you wait. Next time y ou're in the neighborhood have the time, stop by and say hello to Susan and her hard-working staff. Catching Susan in the act of another busy day in Duplication Services.

Anyway, this race was supposedly held to benefit the Council for Literacy , but unfortunately, after the race, most everyone gathered for free food instead of lining up to find out how to become a volunteer tutor. I guess that shouldn't surprise me by now. Butitdoes. At the time, I was kind of nervous about meeting with my learner for the first time on the day after the race, but I still felt good that I was finally able to help someone learn to read.

It was like they were invisible. pulling out someone else's leftovers before the seagulls could get to them. All around, people in bike shorts and 10L T-shirts were eating their free food, drinking their free drinks, and chatting about the race or anything else they happened to think about. Yet no one, not a single person, offered anything to these homeless men. No one said a word to any of them. As far as I could tell, I was the only one who even looked at them. It was like they were invisible. If we ignore them, then they're not really there. I began to thinkl was the only one who could see them. The food booths have a system, where they mark off your race number to ensure that no one gets more than one of each item. I hadn't taken anything but the coffee, since the samples they were giving were definitely not health food! I changed my mind. I went back and hit every single booth. Then I found the man who had been searching through the garbage cans and said "Hello." His smile lit up his sun-beaten face like nothing I've ever seen before. He seemed so happy just to have someone to talk to for a minute. I asked if he wanted some cheesecake. Itoldhimlcouldn't handle all that sugar. He accepted it right away. Then I offered him the rest of what was in my bag. He said he would take anything I was willing to give him. I gladly gave him everything. The smile didn't leave his face, or mine.

It seemed like an old friend to him, a phrase he once knew well, but hadn't heard in a very long time. I'll never forget the look on his face as he said "Yeah, you toot" and walked through the park with his bag of goodies once reserved for those you paid the entry fee. As I headed back toward the finish line and the bus stop, I passed another man standing at the front of the park with his bag of cans in his hand and a wistful, longing look in his eyes. He didn't say anything to anyone, and no one said anything to him. I walked past him about 50 feet, but couldn't get the look on his face out of my mind. I turned to go back, but as I watched him stare blankly into the crowd, I realized I had nothing left to give him. There was nothing more I could do today. I turned, sick with the knowledge that I had been there for an hour and I was the only one who seemed to notice or care about these men. If there was nothing more I could do today, it seemed more than likely that nothing else would be done. I wiped my tears from my eyes as I boarded the bus for my ride back to the Horton Plaza parking garage and my sheltered middle class life. I was lucky, I was going home, where I didn' t have to remember the people I had seen. But I'll always remember that some people didn't go home that day—they had no home to go to.

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

There have been three surveys prior to SNAPS-94; the last was conducted in 1989. All CSU campuses participated in SNAPS-89 with the exception of San Diego State. All 20 campuses will be participating in SNAPS-94. In administering the survey, each campus will follow a uniform procedure which consists of surveying a sample of students in randomly selected courses during the middle of the Spring. At CSUSM we will start the survey process in late February or early March. We will survey about 750 students in order to submit at least 500 completed surveys. Surveys are submitted to the Chancellor's Office and the responses are used to develop a systemwide report which helps the CSU present an accurate picture of its student body in a public and systematic way. In 1989 800 copies of the SNAPS report were distrib- San Marcos/tpaComar Writing Center Opens uted nationally to public and private entities. Some of the information in the Executive Summary of the 1989 SNAPS report indicates that over two-thirds of CSU students were also employed and a majority of respondents were classified as "commuter students." Among the problems impeding students' efforts to achieve their educational goals, personal factors were cited more frequently than institutional factors; financial problems were ranked most often by 44 percent of the respondents. Among 18 potential campus reforms, the option to "offer summer courses at regular fees" was chosen by 40 percent of the sample; the second most popular reform was to "improve the parking situation." Each campus will receive a dataset of the responses submitted by its students so that analysis can take place campus by campus. Responses are, of course, confidential and data will be reported only in aggregate form. The CSUSM data should help all of us better understand the needs and opinions of our students. Institute The Writing Center staff wants to welcome all returning and new students to a friendly place that helps to advance written academic assignments—the Writing Center. The doors opened Feb. 9 at 9 AM. The tutor corps of the Writing Center offers a skilled group of students whose foundation in writing theory and practices come from English494 (Theory and Practice of College Writing). The tutors aim to foster academic quality writing from the painless perspective of a good friend who is interested in advaDcirig meaningful written analysis and creative expression. Students at any phase of an assignment—brain-storming, editing, revision or final draft inspection—are all part of the tutorial staff s field of experience.

A press conference was held on Dec. 7 at SDSU by Gina Nunez, V.P. of External A ffairs at SDSU and myself, Michelle Sadova. The focus was to encourage Wilson to place higher education within a category of immediate attention rather than focusing on the construction of prisons as a way to remedy crime. He responded, "As Governor, I 've opened five new prisons. Tonight, I propose that we offer $2 billion worth of bonds to build six more. There will be those who protest such costs. They'll complain that they would prefer to spend the money on higher education rather than more prisons. Well, so would I. But this is not a matter of choice." Sounds pretty good, right?

Bear as Acting Vice President for Institutional Advancement. The adoption of CSU Trustee policy asks each CSU campus to raise—over time— in excess of 10 percent above and beyond its state funds appropriation. Mr. Bear, who recently retired as a Senior Vice President from Hughes Aircraft and as Chair of San Diego's United Way, will join us for the remainder of the fiscal year in the manner of United Way's "loaned executive." That is, he will donate his time to the university at no salary or benefits. Bear was asked to accept the title of a position recommended by the Chancellor and adopted by the Trustees in their action last week. He will be asked to assist the university in its push during the remainder of the year to meet its 1994 fundraising goals and to assist in developing a strategic plan that addresses the campus responsibility to raise nearly $2.5 million for 1994-95 and Bear will coordinate the University's efforts in fundraising, public affairs, and alumni relations. Assisting Bear will be Jane Lynch in Development, Norma Yuskos in Public Affairs and, to a small extent, Tanis Brown in developing Alumni Affairs.

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

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

L angham Service-Learning Coordinator Katherine Johnson-LeVesque loves to inform others about volunteer opportunities. She enjoys being part of a solution, developing skills, and learning about new things. She has designed the logo for CSUSM's Volunteer Day, Saturday, February 26, 1994. Katherine, a senior, majors in psychology with a minor in women's studies. Volunteering is central in her life. She explains that, "Volunteering has a ripple effect. What I have found is that the people I help, eventually help someone else." "Giving has always felt good to me and I like connecting to the spirit of another" Learning how things work motivates Katherine. For example, she volunteered to work at the UC San Diego HIV Neuro-Behavioral Research Center. As a volunteer providing clerical support and data input in the psychiatry department, she observed the process of research design, data collection and publication, as well as how psychological testing was conducted. Becoming a part of the solution instead of just talking about a problem encapsulates Katherine's philosophy. For the past five years, she has been lecturing in the community and at local community colleges informing people about the effects of domestic violence, child abuse, and sexual abuse on individuals and society. Her goal is to bring about social change through raising public con- sciousness and encouraging people to get into treatment so that the devastating effects of trauma in the family can be alleviated. Katherine currently volunteers with several groups. In addition to her educational presentations described above, she also provides support, guidance, and referrals for survivors of abuse. At Being Alive, an HTV/ AIDS women and children's resource center, she volunteers as a receptionist and assists clients and their families tq deal with their emotional adjustment, Wfiether "infected" or " affected" by this disease. This year, Katherine is the Program Coordinator for the PTA at Hickman Elementary School. Ethnic Diversity, Women's History, AIDS Education, and Dad's Involvement in Children's Education are among the programs she has created. These topics were inspired by courses she has taken at CSUSM. Most recently, Katherine developed a 4 hour program for her daughter's 6th grade GATE (gifted) program on the physiology of the brain. Using a sheep's brain, she taught students its anatomy and functions. She explained that since no one's brain works perfectly , we are all slightly different, unique, and that each of us has something special to offer. With the strong belief that you can make lemonade out of lemons, Katherine has volunteered in the past with assistance to the homeless and to immigrants, in designing and sewing clothes for the disabled, in teaching puppeteering, crafts, and cooking through her church youth and women's groups, visiting the elderly, and tutoring in the elementary school classrooms. "Anyone can overcome loneliness and add interest to their lives," Katherine stresses. Photo/Mary Szterpakiewicz "Giving has always felt good to me and I like connecting to the spirit of another. I have a lot to be thankful for, and like to use my talent and capabilities to assist others." In this spirit, Katherine is an active participant of the Outreach Sub-Committee of the Service-Learning Committee planning for Volunteer Day on campus on Saturday, February 26,1994. For the future, Katherine plans to continue her volunteer activities and to develop a scholarship especially f or disadvantaged youth who come from a background of abandonment, neglect, or abuse. Her motivation is to help these youth create new and better lives for themselves. While Katherine was volunteering at an outpatient center for severely depressed and schizophrenic patients, one of the men remarked after listening to Katherine tell about her activities, that she must be extremely organized to "do it all!" That marked the first time that Katherine reflected on the effectiveness of her time management and prioritizing in everything she does. And, yes, she still spends quality time with her family and enjoys her life. Enjoying volunteering makes life more meaningful and more fun!

At Circle K 's weekly meetings on campus, students sign up to help serve meals at this local soup kitchen. Wendy Dresher has been helping 2 or 3 times a month for several months. She observed, ' The first time people go there, they anticipate that everyone is homeless - but that is not the case. For some, their social security or other limited income runs out before the end of the month and they haven't enough for food." Scott Morey went to assist at the soup kitchen for the first time last week and will be going to help again. "It is very rewarding to go there and help people who are needy because they are so appreciative," Wendy added. Kevin Kilpatrick emphasized the same comment. Kevin said that he can really relate to the homeless. "They are just like the rest of us - they have hopes and dreams, and have experienced disappointments too." Wendy went on to explain, "By the end of the month, there are about 70 people of all ages, from newborns to elderly, at the soup kitchen. Most people though, are between thirty and forty years old.'4 Kevin talks with the homeless. "The homeless are people too. We have intelligent conversations with them." The people who come to the soup kitchen ask the Circle K student volunteers about their university experience-— what they are studying and their career goals. Kevin described avoidance as people's typical behavior toward the homeless. In contrast, he asks them if they are staying warm at night, especially with the cold winter nights. "When it rains, its very wet unless they can find an overhang." Kevin acknowledges that there are a f ew homeless we should b e wary of, but this is also the case with people in general. The interesting thing that Kevin notes is that there is a real camaraderie among the homeless —they look out for one another. He added, "These people are really appreciative of the assistance provided. They piteh in and help with the cleanup afterwards. It shows that they are not j ust taking advantage of society's generosity." If you are interested in knowing more about Circle K, please contact the Student Activities Office. Sigma Phi Delta Raises Money for L.A. Quake Victims A myGlaspey Staff Writer Richard Harvey, Sigma Phi Delta's Public Relations Officer The ground was still shaking w ith a ftershocks w hen R ichard Harvey, Sigma Phi D elta's Public Relations Officer started organizing a fund-raiser tohelp Los Angeles Earthquake victims. Sigma Phi Delta, a social and charitable fraternity at CSUSM designed a fund-raiser that allows us to enjoy the beautiful southern California coastline while helping our neighbors to the north. Buy o ne t hree-hour w halewatching ticket f or $ 15 and $5 will be donated to the Los Angeles Quake Relief Fund while $10 will go to Apollo Charters. Captain JeffJohnson has agreed to run the fund-raiser through March 15,1994. The Apollo is an all-aluminurn 65 foot 22 inch sports fisher with a full galley and sleeping quarters for 30, "just in case you get sea sick" said Harvey. The boat is certified to accommodate 94 whale watchers. Harvey chose the Apollo for several reasons. "It holds 94. It is one of the nicest boats and Captain Jeff Johnson was most generous in working with me." Harvey said. Radio stations KCEO (95.9 FM) and KCET (1000 AM) interviewed Sigma Phi Delta last Sunday. The fraternity spoke about CSUSM and promoted their whalewatching fund-raiser at the same time. The radio interview is on reserve in the school archives section of the CSUSM library. Sigma Phi Delta is now coordinating group trips aboard the Apollo. Harvey was approached by Japanese students at UCSD who are interested in an English as A Second Language whale-watching trip. Harvey is currently working o naCSUSMFaculty whale-watching excursion. Tickets must be bought in advance and are available for purchase from any Sigma Phi Delta member. For more information call 967-6523. After "raising as much money as possible" for the Earthquake Relief Fund, Harvey will organize a benefit for the Association of Retarded Citizens (ARC). Sigma Phi Delta may host an Open Invitational Miniature Golf Championship in April with proceeds going to ARC. �CSUSM Prepares for Volunteer DaySaturday, February 26 Learning Disabilities J ohn S egora • • • ' • Coord^or£DisaWedStudent Services \!f 'f^ • What 1$ A Learning DkabiUtyf - ' MMmt-^ nature ^ and M vidiials with A .... ^ m m ^ M ^ h ^vistial ^ f r n m mw at-birth I . inoi^ttj^^jim^ai^ tfet^dl^^te^^ tes^ilil^ <fisiWliiy i result of another Ifowbv^ Wfo* Has A Z^^ . ifeftd^ ^ d^abiHtf i f r D isahil$# S ocialist at # l ^&fai; S i e h i l ^^^^^^^^^^ wtth a l eaning n (Learairig a fypiM university; ; a P ^ s i b i l ^ ^ t t j c l p s e t o 200 students wi(h oiih&Qr p ^ a • disabled popu|atibn are ^ver identified a n d S t Y es.

California State University San Marcos has a special role in the North San Diego County area, and in the spirit of community partnership, the university initiates and offers programs to further intellectual, professional, and personal development within the diverse community which it serves. Volunteer Day activities on Saturday Feb. 26, 1994, in the spirit of community partnership, center around youth, the environment, the elderly, a museum exhibit, and assistance with tax preparation for lowincome individuals. The kick-off rally is in Commons 206 from 8 to 9 AM. Mayor Lee B. Thibadeau, who has proclaimed Feb. 26,1994 as Volunteer Day in the City of San Marcos, will participate. Volunteer activities start at 9 and continue to noon both on campus and in the community. Many CSUSM clubs and organizations are volunteering their time to assist the next generation to envision a university education in their future. They are joining together to provide campus tours and funfilled workshops to youngsters invited from San Marcos schools, Boys and Girls Clubs, and Key Clubs from the surrounding community. The following clubs are participating: the Liberal Studies Student Association, the Computer Club, the Student California Teachers Association, Circle K, the Silver Shield, El Club de las Americas, M.E.Ch.A., the Association of Business Students, and the Pan African Student Alliance. Environmental volunteer service is at nearby Discovery Lake Park. Earth Club, the Associated Students, and the 3-D orga- nization along with a Girl Scout troop, will focus their services on sprucing up the park and creating a nature display. The Accounting Society will help low income individuals with their tax preparation, and the Argonaut Society will prepare a new exhibit for the San Marcos Historical Society and Museum. Key College Opportunities plans to continue their services to seniors in San Marcos. The Knights also plan to continue with their c lub's involvement in Special Olympics. English language students from Japan will join in a variety of the on-going activities. The Japanese Culture Exchange Club is planning a potluck for the volunteers after all events have been completed that day. Students from Soc 309 Aging and Society, as part of Service-Learning in the course, will assist at the Elder/Adult Care Annual Public Forum sponsored by the San Marcos Family Care Commission at the San Marcos Joslyn Senior Center. Participation is welcome and students, staff, and faculty can sign up in the Associated Students Office to join in activities organized by CSUSM clubs and associations. Many hands not only make the work lighter, but more enjoyable. Volunteer Day will provide an opportunity for students and our local community to participate in cooperative services. These activities fulfill several university goals including outreach and cooperation with our broader community, promotion of civic pride and responsibility, and initiation of contacts f or service-learning. A number of our faculty are encouraging service-learning in their classes to link real-life experience through service to the theories and concepts taught in the course. Service-Learning host Dwight Giles California Center for the Arts Galleries B ecome Museum The Service-Learning Committee enthusiastically anticipates upcoming guest lecturer, Dwight Giles, of Vanderbilt University. Giles will be speaking at CSUSM on Monday, Feb. 21 and Tuesday, Feb. 22. Giles, an expert in the field of servicelearning, has been granted a three-year FIPSE grant dealing with learning outcomes in the field of service-learning. His talk entitled, "What Is This Thing Called Service-Learning: Working Through Definitional Confusion," will be addressed to the CSUSM campus on Feb. 21 from Noon-1:30 PM. Everyone is invited to attend. This month the California Center for the Arts, Escondido, designated 9,000 square feet of gallery space at the $75 million arts center as the California Center for the Arts Musuem. The Museum will be a permanent nonprofit institution, essentially educational and humanistic in purpose, which will own, study, care for, and regularly exhibit and interpret works of art to the public. The new museum will curate exhibitions of regional, national and international artists and host traveling exhibitions, as well as establish a Permanent Collection of art from the 20th century, with an emphasis on American and regional art. �The more corrupt the state, the more numerous the laws. — Tacitus CSUSM Writing Requirement -mindless labor or intellectual growth Roy Latas Legislature Sidesteps the Real Issues Staff Writer Students* interests in issues such as free speech, child care and Student Union fees gain and lose momentum, yet the All University Writing Requirement (AUWR) constantly sparks opinions from students and faculty. The initial grousing of first semester students translates to praise and thanks from graduating seniors. Up to this point in our academic careers, there has been a general lack of emphasis on English composition skills in American education which has caused American industrial and economic institutions to question the academic standards that allow colleges and universities students to graduate without adequate writing skills. CSUSM is trying to remedy this situation with the AUWR. The definition of the AUWR, as stated in the 1992-1993 University Catalog, is: "Students are advised to note that every course at California State University, San Marcos has a writing requirement component of2,500 words. This requirement can be filled in a variety of ways, depending on the course." This impersonal sounding writing r equirement r epresents the F ounding Faculty's intention of creating a graduating population instilled with exemplary writing skills. They hoped the AUWR would furnish a mechanism that insured all graduates received sufficient opportunity to use and improve their writing skills. The AUWR makes it necessary for all students to write within a variety of disciplines in varying contexts from literature to biology. The Founding Faculty also understood the demand for clear, concise, and logically written communication in the postgraduate areas of employment and graduate school, as well as in family and social contexts. The implementation of the AUWR takes a variety of forms depending on the discipline and faculty member. A common form is the 2,500 word paper. Here, the student makes an in-depth study of a particular topic and presents a detailed report that condenses many information sources into a 3 Strikes You're Out clear and compact analysis. Other faculty members may assign several smaller papers during the semester, thereby reducing student stress levels, as well as the instructor's laborious task of grading multitudes of long papers at one time. The format of a paper or assignment presents an infinite array of possibilities. Some professors employ written work in the form of diaries, screenplays, journals, letters, or novella, promoting a new critical frame for the student to exercise his or her analytical perspective. These formats challenge the students' minds to realize alternative connections within the subject matter while increasing the students' creative freedom, and making the task less intimidating. The journal is the most popular alternative form of writing. Journal entries are devoted to the preceding week's discussions; the journal condenses the student's comprehension of new material while allowing the professor an insight into the absorption of lecture information. The journal entries allow the professor to understand when issues are cloudy and make adjustments or reviews when necessary. The faculty relies on the AUWR to furnish students with an additional opportunity to decipher what they learn through writing, and reassemble classroom information in a way that demonstrates understanding of the concepts. Writing theorist Peter Elbow calls this process "cooking.' "Cooking means getting material to interact." The interaction of thoughts creates new material that the student can interpret which may include segments of classroom experience and personal insight. This process is assimilation not memorization. The student undergoes a metamorphosis through conceptual analysis. Elbow also reminds his readers that "[g]rowing means getting words to evolve through stages," not overnight. The intent of the AUWR is growth within the student, and we all have felt some growing pains. However, our new stature has the foundation of improved writing skills. THE PRIDE, CSUSM Student Newspaper, San Marcos, California 92096-0001, (619) 752-4998 EDITOR-IN-CHIEF: Mary Szterpakiewicz BUSINESS MGR/ADVERTISING: Sheryl Greenblatt COPYEDITORS: Donald Beran, Roy Latas, Anita Williams LAYOUT EDITOR: Krista Thornton PHOTOGRAPHY: Carlos Mariscal, Mary Szterpakiewicz STAFF WRITERS: Karin Foster, Amy Glaspey, Peter Gorwin,Thomas Lee Huntington, Roy Latas CONTRIBUTORS: Claire K. Langham, Susan Mendes, Joel Grinolds, MD, John Segoria By Thomas Lee Huntington Staff Writer In theory, it is difficult to argue against any of the five "3 Strikes and You're Out" crime bills currently in front of the California state senate. All the bills guarantee stiffer sentences for any criminal convicted of a second violent felony and life imprisonment if convicted of a third. Certainly, violent crime has reached epidemic proportions in American society and it is obvious that something must be done. The "3 Strikes" concept has provided politicians with an unprecedented opportunity to look tough on crime without alienating any powerful voting lobby. Even President Clinton, in a State i of the Union address otherwise dedicated to health care and welfare reform, received his biggest bipartisan applause by reiterating his support of such a bill on the federal level. It is wise, though, (as it is with anything to which all politicians pay carefully calculated lip service) to maintain a healthy skepticism about the rash of current crime legislation. In California, the "3 Strikes" frenzy was fueled in large part by the murder of Polly Klaas, the young child kidnapped from her living room and brutally killed by aconvicted felon. Klaas' story mesmerized the nation, in large part because it symbolized the encroachment of violent crime into suburbia. "Are our children no longer safe in their own homes?" parents everywhere wondered. Many of those parents had political pull, and the conviction that something must be done to keep violent criminals behind bars and out of our neighborhoods eventually reached the state legislature. The Klaas case was a horrible tragedy. But horrible tragedies are the norm in many of our inner cities, a fact which seems to have escaped our governmental leaders for quite some time. A child in Watts has not been safe in her own living room for a long time now. She has not been safe on her way to school, in her classroom, on the playground or on her way home. She has been forced to live with the fact that violence is a way of life in her community. Streets burned, buildings were looted, a city was ignited and the California legislature did nothing to address crime in the inner city. There has been no legislation aimed at creating economic opportunities for the young people in Los Angeles most likely to turn to crime. There has been no increase in police protection in urban areas plagued by constant gang warfare. There has been no attempt to stop crime before it starts by engaging in the kind of honest discourse about values and community that elected officials are so afraid of. The same politicians who turned their back as our cities turned into war zones now purport to end crime as we know it by guaranteeing a few stiffer sentences. I t's not a bad first step, but i t's hardly enough and i t's long overdue. Student Activist Collects Signatures Garrett Collins, English major, is an example of student activism at CSUSM. Garrett is busy these days collecting signatures to place the hemp initiative on the California ballot. The initiative would decriminalize the use, sale and cultivation of marijuana. You will find Garrett in front of Academic Hall 11 AM till noon over the next several days. If you would like to sign the initiative or have questions about it, Garrett will be happy to assist you. �WWttiers to the Editor The future of Higher Education Hatred Is Alive and Well M ary Szterpakiewicz Editor-in- Chief Dear Editor: I want to acknowledge a writer among us who chooses to communicate a detestable message.

Input from faculty, $tudeiits;staff and the business community is Invited to explore the future of higher education, A recent is^ueof the Economist referred to today- s/universities as "towers of babble" raising serious issues facing higher education. What are the goals of universities today? Are they meeting the needs of the marketplace? What should be the purpose of a tax-supported institution? The public university, like other government institutions, is slow to change. Revered as instruments of enlightenment in the past, today government treats higher education like an inefficient Nationalized industry. Once considered the engine of economic growth, today's university is becoming a dinosaur, concerned more with image than impafct te^^^ away from tiiii#rsities for advice and rese^rcto; turning to think-tanks such as the ffiritafe^'F^ndation^-CATO Institute and l&ftnci^^ The' taostfre-, quejiteom^ are t hat'toiyersilies -We f illed with 1960s dogooders and that "academics rarely give 'y^u^ fWiinoney ;.»[and] star professors are perpetually on sabbatical." With fees skyrocketing, and college enrollment declining, what docs the future hold ifor tdmoitow's college graduate? The computer is probably partially responsible. An enormous array of information is available at the fingertips of every nimble typist with a modem for a fraction of the cost of a college education. By way of Compuserve, Prodigy and Internet we can access thousands of online databases and hold discussions with experts from around the globe. Video tape is another medium which offers practical, educational applications for a fraction of the cost of a college education. Palomar College introduced the TV course, where you can study accounting, anthropology or Spanish in the comfort of your home. Rising costs and declining revenues are forcing universities to re-evaluate priorities. University costs, according to The Economist, rise much faster than inflation because they are labor intensive (wages rise faster than prices). Even Ivy League colleges are teetering on alienating the middle class, leaving these legendary institutions to the idle rich. Politicians are questioning whether the money could better be spent on other things. Private industry has been much better at harnessing the information revolution than its public-sector counterparts. The market must adapt quickly to the needs of J N marketplace, or die. Tlie combination of academic tenure and cumbersome decision-making tends to preserve old institutions rather than expand or create new ones. • % Governments bent on reform are looking at three popular strategies. The first uses the market approach with government playing the role of the purchaser, By linking funding to performance and separating research funds from money for teaching, government has provided two distinct ways of boosting a university's i ncomeincreasing the number of pupils or improving the quality of their research. British universities are pursuing these different avenues for survival producing remarkable results within a short period of time. Oxford, Cambridge and the like, emphasizeresearch. The next top 10 schools have a mix of both research and a teaching focus, while a third group focuses primarily on teaching. While academics regard thisas an affront to their dignity, this scheme - A second approach in cutting costs is to simply shift funds to cheaper institutions like community colleges and innovative sources of higher education, like workstudy programs, distance learning, and getting credit for life and work experience. A third strategy is for universities to diversify their funding. Rather than relying solely on government funds, universities should market their research to local industry. In the U.S., industry-sponsored research has more than quadrupled in the past decade. This would serve to create a better rapport with the business community, and attract funding as well as provide a purpose for graduates. Raising fees is another way to diversify funding. While critics complain that this would curtail expansion, in Britain, "free" education has done little to bring the hordes to the sanctuary. The fact remains that local, state and federal governments are putting a limit on educational funding. Universities must accept the fact that governments are becoming increasingly reluctant to fund higher education. California's school system once satisfied private industry s demand for technical research, physicists, chemists and engineers that fueled the dramatic growth of the California economy. These positions are now predominantly staffed by foreigntrained graduates. Can higher education meet the needs of an ever-changing marketplace? �I'll Take Anything" holds up despite drastic revisions 66T? Thomas Lee Huntington Staff Writer It is no secret that James L. Brooks' new film I'll Do Anything began life as a fullfledged Holly wood musical. It was an ambitious idea, but test audiences were so turned off by the musical numbers that Brooks felt compelled to rework the entire film. The director edited and reshot to such a degree that the only semblance remaining of the film's previous incarnation is a solitary song T M ouie R euiew by five year old Whittni Wright. The film holds up surprisingly well after such drastic revision, mainly on the strength of the acting and Broolcs' ear for witty and insightful dialogue. Nick Nolte heads the cast, portraying a down-on-his-luck actor forced to take in the six year old daughter he hasn't seen for two years. Albert Brooks is an action film producer obsessed with the bottom line and Julie Kavner is a public opinion pollster who runs tests screenings and can utter nothing but the truth. Wright is truly a discovery as the bratty, precocious child with whom Nolte must re-establish a bond. The plot is unimportant in a film such as this, where most of the pleasure comes in watching the actors inhabit their roles. Nolte is outstanding as a likable guy struggling to come to terms with the realities of parenthood and Hollywood at the same time; the best scenes in the film are between Nolte and Wright. Their exchanges seem genuine and honest because the characters have been so well crafted and written with such care. The laughter and tears this father—daughter relationship invokes are not easy and sentimental; the actors earn the sentiment. Less successful is the subplot involving a romance between Brooks and Kavner. Both actors are superb, especially Brooks. His producer character could easily have been a stock stereotype, an easy villain for a film about the film industry. But, perhaps because the director is also himself a producer, the role is given complexity and even a degree of likableness. It is not difficult to see why the kind, giving character played by Kavner would be attracted to such a person. But the romance is inadequately explored. Perhaps this is the area where the music played an integral role and the reshooting and editing couldn't completely cover that gap. Nonetheless, I'll Do Anything is an extremely likable, well-written film about a group of interesting, complex people. It is difficult to imagine the movie as a musical, which is probably a tribute to Brooks editing ability and an indication that he ultimately made the correct decision.

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

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

Friday, January 28,1994 Bookstore Blahs Amy Glaspey Staff Writer "Books cost too much," drones the founder of Crown Books, promoting his discounted bestsellers. It is not until we write checks for $300twice a year that his words hit home. At the end of each semester, students get back a portion of their textbook investment during book buy back days. This fall, the University bookstore advertised "up to 50% cash back for your used books." Experienced textbook consumers know it is often smarter to keep their texts than take their chances during book buy back. Some students are shocked to find that their $50 textbook is worthless after four months of infrequent use. This is how book buy back works.

"The bookstore is being unprofessional by blaming the teachers," said one CSUSM senior. "The store is not as responsive to students needs as they could be." He cites the problem with the University Store is insufficient textbook inventory. Failure to have an adequate number of books on hand at the beginning of each semester "compromises the university." "My first semester at CSUSM, I had to wait over one month for a sociol- ogy text. My teacher came from CSU Long Beach and got his order in late," remarks one student. One cause of late requisition forms, according to a University Store staff person, is the existence of part-time faculty. Parttime professors who get hired two weeks before the semester begins simply do not have a chance to get in their orders on time The CSUSM senior refuses to accept the University Store's explanations. "If there is something wrong with the system, they should change the system. If the orders come in late, the book store should place a rush order with the publisher." Former Saint Joseph resident graduates from CSUSM It is never too late to pursue your dreams. This past December, Hazel Scott "Scotti" Aretakis, 54, fulfills her lifetime dream of getting a college degree. She graduates from California State University San Marcos with a bachelor's degree in sociology. Aretakis attributes this accomplishment to her mother. "My mother taught me and my brother, Bill Scott, to have a sense of our own self-worth and to ersevere even in the face of adversity. It is these and the other values that she instilled in me as a child that gave me the strength to pursue a college education," said Aretakis.

All of those students who plan to return here next semester and were born in 1957 or later, will need to provide proof of a Measles and Rubella immunization prior to registering next semester. Those who do not comply will receive an I-Hold notice, which states that they will not be allowed to register until they submit the required form. The staff of Student Health Services is available Monday through Friday, 8 AM to 5 PM to help students meet this re- quirement. Students who have immunization records should bring them to the Student Health Services Clinic to receive a clearance. The staff can assist students who need to send away f or their medical records. Students who need to receive the vaccine can do so at no charge at any time during the semester. It is highly advisable to do this early in the semester to avoid long lines later. To make an appointment f or an immunization, call 752-4915, or stop by t he clinic. The Student Health Services Center is located on the first floor of Craven Hall. It is the first door on the right as you are facing the building. Photo/Carlos Mariscal Susan Mendes, LVN, Health Education Assistant, assists in Nutritional Counseling SERVICES Nutritional counseling now available at SHS Student Health Services now has appointments available for private, individual nutrition counseling with students. At the session, students are asked to bring in a three-day food diary that records everything they have eaten during that time. This information is then entered into the computer. Using a new, specialized health program called Nutritionist IE, the nurse is able to give the student a complete six-page dietary analysis. This indicates the total nutrients and calories consumed, percentage of proteins, fats, and carbohydrates, as well as recommendations for excesses and deficiencies. The nurse then reviews the report with the student and makes recommendations for healthy dietary changes. Computerized body fat testing is also available by appointment. For this test, a small, sticky electrode is attached to the patient's wrist and ankle. The analyzer measures the body's resistance and reactance The results of this test are then entered into a computer program which gives a body profile analysis, which includes such information as percentage of body fat and percentage of lean muscle tissue, as well as BMR, or basal metabolic rate. This is very important, as it indicates the exact number of calories that person burns every day. Activity level and specific exercises can be factored in to indicate the number of calories burned with increased activity. This information can be especially helpful for students who want to lose or gain weight, reduce body fat, or build up muscle. To make an appointment for either of these services, call Susan Mendes at Student Health Services, 752-4915. The Student Health Services Center is located on the first floor of Craven Hall, and is open MondayFriday, 8AM to 5 PM.

Davis, Ph.D. Contributing Writer This is addressed to students who face a new semester of new courses, new teachers and new texts. How will you cope with so many unknowns? You have a choice—fear and trembling or confidence and assurance. Now is the time to decide. As you give personal thought and time to the way you plan to approach what's ahead, consider the statement made by the famous psychologist, Carl Menninger: Attitudes are more important than facts. How does this bear on the problem of facing unknowns? In the first place, all these unknowns are facts. You just aren't aware of them. You can't control them. But you do have a choice; the way in which you perceive the facts. This is where your attitude comes in. In the second place, your attitude is a choice you can make. You decide the mental position by which you want to perceive the undeniable facts. In an attempt to reach your goals, remember, your attitude is a key. It can be a roadblock or a doorway to success. If you have the slightest tinge of apprehension, let me tell you how I put it to my students in statistics. We repeated the familiar refrain from a children's story, ' The Little Train That Could"— I think I can, I think I can, I think I have a plan And I can do most anything if I only think I can Simply stated, you can succeed if you give yourself a chance. With a positive attitude, you can achieve your goals this spring semester.

Beginning with a morning kick-off on campus, students from CSUSM clubs and organizations will participate in activities they have planned involving services for those in our surrounding community. Student leaders are actively involved in planning community services and they welcome participation from students, faculty,, and staff. Yvonne McCarty is coordi- nating various clubs in youth-oriented service with workshops on campus for invited members of the Boys and Girls Clubs as well as selected San Marcos elementary, junior and senior high school students. Ann Garman, along with members of Circle K, will host high school Key Club students on campus. These youth-oriented activities serve to improve self-esteem, encourage continuing education, promote a desire to learn, and familiarize students with our campus. Rolando Nooris and computer club members will provide hands-on computer learning experiences. Bertha Walker and members of the Pan-African Student Alliance are participating and also providing logistical support for Volunteer Day. Tanis Brown of CSUSM Alumni Club continues to contribute her leadership for this event, especially the rally. Katherine Johnson-LaVesque has designed the logo (seen above, from a photograph by Alexa Welch). Environmentally oriented services will be the focus at nearby Discovery Lake Park. When the roads are completed, it will be a pleasant hike from our campus. Cleaning up the park and creating a nature display board are the focus of services of the Earth Club. Many hands make light work (bring gloves) therefore Michelle Sedova, President of Earth Club, and Richard Molloy, President of Associated Students, welcome volunteers. "Jennifer Elbert and the 3-D club members will be there too, culminating a week of activities shared with a local girl scout troop. Other volunteer services vary. Scott Sherrillo and the Accounting Society, in conjunction with the IRS, will be available on Volunteer Day and throughout the tax season to assist local income and elderly in* tax preparation. Any students and Spanish speakers may also request assistance through this Volunteer Income Tax Assistance (VITA) program. The Argonaut Society has a special service project for the San Marcos Historical Society and Mueum. T&s Association for Busi- ness Students and other clubs are also planning activities for volunteer day. In the spirit of partnership, Mayor Thibadeau and the City Council of San Marcos have issued a Proclamation recognizing February 26, 1994 as Volunteer Day. Volunteer Day can fulfill several university goals: outreach and cooperation with our broader community; promotion of civic pride and responsibility; as well as initiation of contacts for service-learning opportunities. A number of our faculty are encouraging service-learning in their classes to link real-life experience through service with the theory and concepts taught in their courses. During Club Days in the Plaza on January 31, February 2, and 3, interested students, faculty and staff may sign up to join in Volunteer Day activities. Sign ups continue at the Associated Students Office Ext. 4990, the Student Activities Office, Ext. 4970, or the ServiceLearning Office, Ext. 4057.

Consider, for a moment, the constant cloud that has surrounded the administration beginning with the policy regarding homosexuals in the military and encompassing the firings of the entire White House travel staff, flip-flopping on Bosnia, the failure of the ambitious stimulus package, the thwarted nominations of Zoe Baird, Kimba Wood, Stephen Breyer and Lani Guinier, the hour-long haircut that held up air traffic at LAX, allegations made by members of the Arkansas National Guard about gubernatorial infidelities, the suicide of White House lawyer and long-time Clinton pal Vince Foster, the forced resignation of Defense Secretary Les Aspin, the Waco fiasco, allegations of financial impropriety involving Whitewater Investments, and, most recently (at press time, anyway), the decision by former Defense Secretary nominee Bob Inman to withdraw his name from consideration despite the guarantee of overwhelming..confirmation in the Senate. How has this cursed administration managed to achieve anything substantial in the midst of such chaos? Well, if you believe the headlines, they haven't. This year has seen the passage of Clinton-sponsored legislation such as the most comprehensive and radical fiscal package since the early Reagan years, the Family Leave Act, the Motor Voter Bill, as well as the introduction of a massive, ambitious overhaul of the health care system, congressional approval of the North American Free Trade Agreement and a successful resolution to GATT negotiations with Eu- style political gossip. This is not to say that there is some kind of national media conspiracy to discredit the leader of the free world or even that Clinton is somehow the first president to be slighted in such a manner. The current media culture has evolved gradually through time, and certainly significant events in the Reagan and Bush administrations were often ignored in ways this was a good thing; more citizens (especially young ones) were exposed to American politics than in the past, and more of them became involved in the process. But by breaking new ground, Clinton managed to alienate the more respectable media establishment. The New York Times and CNN are now forced to compete with MTV News and Hard Copy, and in the process the distinction between these different forums has blurred considerably. Most of the press no longer has faith that the American people will be interested in tales of legislative battles or trade negotiations. So instead we get lurid tales of Governor Clinton rushing out for a quickie in his limousine while the National Guard looks out for Hillary. There are many substantial areas in which the current administration deserves intellifavor of more sexy stories about Nancy's gent criticism, including the lack of a cohewardrobe or George's distaste for broccoli. sive foreign policy and the President's willBut the climate has intensified significantly ingness to sacrifice important issues for the in the past few years, and the blame (or credit, sake of political expediency.

Yet the only stories garnering significant news space have been the scandals. Even Clinton's recent trip to Eastern Europe and Russia in which he met with Boris Yeltsin and announced a new plan to gradually include Eastern European nations in NATO was overshadowed by the buzz of allegations and innuendoes about Whitewater.
