Fire in the Skies
Over Southern California
By CHRIS MARTIN
Pride Staff Writer
Last Thursday around 7:30
p.m., Vandenberg Air Force
Base, located just north of Santa
Barbara, was running a routine
ICBM (Inter-Continental Ballistic Missile) test.
The missile sent was an
unmanned Minute Man III, and
its destination was the Marshal
Islands, thousands of miles away
in the central Pacific Ocean.
Weather experts say that the
time of the launch and the clear
weather conditions, played a significant role in creating the "twi-
light affect" that many people
saw that night. As the missile
climbed to enormous altitudes,
the vapor trail left behind the
missile froze. Consequently, the
rays coming from the still setting sun caught the frozen vapor
particles, sending off a reddishwhite hue.
Matty, from the Matty Show
on 91X radio said that the United
States Air Force (USAF) does
inform the media about missile
launches that are supposed to
occur in the area. However, he
stated that the releases regarding the launches are very vague.
Apparently the USAF told 91X
that there would be a launch
sometime in September between
1:00 p.m. and 7:00 p.m. Not only
is this a very broad window for
a scheduled test, but it was also
late, albeit only by a half an
hour.
Many students leaving Academic Hall noticed the event,
and there was a strange mixture
of emotions in the air. It was a
combination of apprehension,
awe, and amazement. Only after
they realized that there was no
apparent danger did it become
apparent that the event was
merely both an awesome and
powerful spectacle.

Tough Time with Skate Parks in San Marcos
By STEVEN ZAMORA
Pride Staff Writer
There are no skate parks in
San Marcos, leaving the entire
population of extreme sports
participants, including skateboarders, inline skaters, and
bikers, with no legal place to
practice their sport.
"There are no future plans
for a skate park in San Marcos,"
explained Mayor of San Marcos
F.H. "Corky" Snitb. However,
Smith alluded to a new public
park being built off of the 78freeway exit at Nordahl Road
that should be complete by Janu-
ary 2003.
At the new San Marcos park,
there would be an assigned area
(approximately half the size of a
basketball court) for local children and teenagers to ride their
equipment. In this area, there
would be no ramps, rails, or
ledges to ride or grind on - that
leavesflatground. This new park
will not be a skate park because
it will lack ramps, rails, and
ledges, thus leaving public property as one of the few options
for extreme sports participants
to use.
substantial amount of vandalism on our property. Such an
example of vandalism is displayed in this photograph of a
ledge at CSUSM. The marks
on the ledge can be from bikers,
inline skaters, or skate boarders.
However, the fact remains that
public property is being damaged, which is a common complaint that Bill Schramm, from
the city of San Marcos Community Service department, is
hearing from the San Marcos
community.
Schramm asserted that in the
future of San Marcos, as many
At CSUSM, there has been a as 24 new parks could be built,
that may or may not include
skate parks. He also said that
construction of a skate park
would not be worth the hassle,
because local children and
teens would still practice their
sports on public property, even
if skate parks were built.
However, Robert Levienos
of San Marcos, who is a professional inline skater, feels that a
new skate park in San Marcos
would encourage him and other
extreme sports participants to
refrain from practicing on public
property, because they would
have a place to legally skate.
If there are no plans, there

B y AMBER ROSSLAND
Pride Staff Writer
CSUSM is well known for its
cultural diversity, both in education and in population, and it is
this unique quality that enhances
the campus' cultural experience.
Professors like Deborah Small,
Sonia Ruiz, and David Avalos
eagerly devote their time and
efforts to educating students
about different cultures, and in
a sense, opening up the world
to them. This university offers
many such opportunities to
explore the wide varieties of
people on the planet without
even leaving the campus.
tures (VPA 311) introduces
students to a variety of cultures
from around the world through
various art forms, such as film,
music, dance, and writing. This
unique course utilizes the talents
of several instructors, with Small
acting as the "cheerleader for her
colleagues," as she put it.
With a new instructor every
week, this course is more like a
fun day at the cultural arts center
rather than a required course.

best ways to research papers
along with the biggest challenges
students encounter trying to get
these papers done.
Muelemans responded, "Students don't give themselves

little nitty-gritty things take time
and can cause a lot of problems.

�El cónsul general de Mexico visita clase de negocios
Por SOLEDAD ACUNA
Redactara de The Pride
El viernes 20 de septiembre
de las 11:00 a.m. hasta las 12:
50 p.m., el Cónsul General de
México en San Diego Rodulfo
Figueroa, visitó la clase SSM
482D (Manejo del sector de
servicio) "Dentro de la silla del
ejecutivo" enseñada por el Dr.
Tray Nielson y David Dennett.
El motivo de su visita a la clase
fue para hablar de sus experiencias, retos y éxitos obtenidos a lo
largo de su carrera como persona
de negocios al contestar las preguntas del público asistente en
ACD 102. Para Carrie Maxwell,
estudiante de SSM 482D, esta
clase es básicamente para ayudar
a los estudiantes con licenciatura
en negocios a tener más conocimiento en esa área.
Figueroa obtuvo su maestría
en Negocios en Ucrania. Él
trabajó como contador privado
y como contadorfiscalen el
gobierno de México. Además,
Figueroa en su trabajo como
cónsul ha vivido en cuatro países
diferentes incluyendo los Estados Unidos.
El miedo, para Figueroa, es
el peor enemigo de cualquier
persona. El cual, de acuerdo con
él, se debe reconocer que existe,
pero al mismo tiempo manejarlo y superarlo. Esto cambiará
la vida de las personas que lo
hagan.
mayor reto en su vida ha sido
entender lo que pasaba alrededor de él y lo que pasaba en el
mundo en la época de los 70s
cuando la vida fácil que conocía
cambio de repente.
Figueroa expresó que su
mayor error sería mezclar las
emociones con la razón. También dijo a los estudiantes que
para evitar los errores y tener
éxito en la vida personal y profesional se necesita tener humildad
para reconocer que se cometió
un error y estar en contra de la
codicia.
A Figueroa se le pidió un consejo por el público asistente para
balancear la vida personal con
la profesional. Él contestó que
él era una persona egoísta y que
si tenía que trabajar en domingo
lo hacía pero que le gustaba
respetar su vida privada y que si
lo invitaban a jugar golf, se iba.
De acuerdo con Figueroa, el
También dijo que siempre trataba de combinar su vida privada
con su trabajo, siempre buscando
la manera de estar cerca de su
familia.
Otro de los consejos dados por
Figueroa fue que las personas
deben de ser ellos mismos y
escuchar pero no creer todo lo
que escuchen. Él añadió que hay
una razón para todo, e invitó al
público a cuestionarse y a abrirse
a los demás.

Por MARTHA SARABIA
Editora Principal
debido

las
tendencias
machistas y culturales, al
igual que a la impunidad de la
justicia mexicana que considera
a la mujer como ciudadana
de segunda clase. N o es que
crea que la sentencia contra la
nigeriana es injusta, porque lo
considero totalmente injusto y
creó que el veredicto debe de
ser revocado. A continuación
entenderán a lo que me refiero
con la situación de las mujeres
en México y en la cual Fox se
necesita enfocar en lugar de
criticar a otras naciones.
Hace dos años que México
espera un gran cambio social,
político y económico con la
nueva presidencia del Panista
Vicente Fox. Sin embargo, este
cambio parece no estar tomando
lugar o va a un paso lentísimo
incapaz de ser visto ni con el
mayor lente magnificado. La
corrupción, la pobreza, y la
falta de empleo al igual que
la violación a los derechos
humanos siguen presentes en la
sociedad mexicana. N o obstante,
el presidente Fox hace alarde de

todo en contra de las mujeres Muchas de estas mujeres
asesinadas y
desaparecidas
trabajaban en maquiladoras,
usualmente de noche, para poder
ganar un sueldo y darles de
comer a sus familias. Tristemente
para muchas de ellas, debido a la
falta de empleo en el país, esta
era su única opción de trabajo.
Esto me hace recordar otro punto
por el que Fox todavía no ha
cumplido, y eso que ya ha tenido
dos años en la presidencia. Me
refiero a la pobreza que se ha
incrementado en los últimos dos
años debido a la falta de empleo
y salarios justos; pero no puedo
profundizar en esta ocasión
debido a la complejidad del caso.
Sobre las promesas de Fox, como
decimos en México solo me resta
decir que "de lengua me como
un taco."
e internacional, no hay más de 30
muertes resueltas. Además, de
los pocos sospechosos detenidos
de cometer estos asesinatos, hay
grandes dudas sobre la verdad de
su culpabilidad ya que muchos
los consideran chivos expiatorios
que el gobierno ha usado para
aparentar resolver los casos
cuando en realidad esto no es
cierto.
En lugar de estar perdiendo el
tiempo pidiéndole al presidente
Bush por una amnistía para
que más mexicanos puedan
venir a trabajar a EE.UU., Fox
debería de atender mejor la
situación interna y caótica de
México. Debería de establecer
un mejor gobierno con una
justicia verdadera al igual que
abrir más fuentes de trabajo para
evitar que sus conciudadanos
tengan que abandonar su país y
en la mayoría de las ocasiones
a sus familias. Entiendo que un
presidente no puede cambiar
décadas de corrupción y
malfunción social, política y
económica; pero, el esfuerzo
que un presidente haga durante
su gobierno, definitivamente
ayudará mucho a mejorar la
situación en el futuro.
Hace alrededor de dos meses,
las familias de todas estas
mujeres asesinadas y perdidas,
pidieron justicia para encontrar a
los culpables de tantas muertes, y
ayuda para encontrar a aquellas
todavía
desaparecidas.
Sin
embargo, esto pareció no haber
sido escuchado por la justicia
mexicana y mucho menos por
Fox ya que todavía son muy pocos
los culpables o sospechosos
acusados de tantas muertes.
Mi mensaje para el presidente
D e acuerdo con cifras oficiales
publicadas por la prensa nacional Fox es que empiece por demandar
en México, antes que en ningún
otro país, las violaciones de
derechos humanos al igual que
los crímenes contra las mujeres,
que tristemente no sólo acento
o pasan en Chihuahua sino en
muchos otros estados mexicanos
y
que
sean
penalizados
duramente y justamente por la
ley. En lugar de exigir que otros
países hagan esto, ponga usted
el ejemplo para entonces poder
tener derecho y la desvergüenza
de exigirlo en otros países.
Como ciudadana mexicana
preocupada por la situación en
mi país y como ciudadana del
mundo, exijo que estas muertes
y desapariciones no queden
impunes y que los culpables
sean encontrados y llevados
a la justicia verdadera, que
también se necesita establecer en
México. Si ni siquiera usted hace
respetar los derechos civiles de
las mujeres en su propio país,
¿qué cara tiene para exigir que
otros lo hagan? Ponga un buen
ejemplo ante sus colegas en lugar
de exigir algo que ni siquiera
usted hace por las personas de
su país. N o se olvide que el buen
presidente por su país empieza.

�Marilyn Manson Paints In Watercolor
D»,y Drcx /nxTn d ARCA
B n ESMOND B a d p a
Pride Design Editor
Marilyn Manson came to Hollywood last weekend to exhibit
for the first time over 50 of his
watercolor paintings. The event
was held at the Los Angeles Contemporary Exhibition on Hollywood Boulevard, and drew art
collectors as well as thousands
of fans each waiting up to five
hours to meet Manson, engage
in some light chitchat, and
shake Manson's hand. The event
entitled "The Golden Age of the
Grotesque", which by the way is
the title of Manson's new album
in progress, ran from Thursday
to Saturday. I arrived on Friday
at 10 p.m., by then nearly half the
painting were marked sold. The
paintings ranged from $1,000 to
$50,000. Over all it was quite an
event, with a parade of humanity
ranging from Manson and his
beautiful entourage all decked
out in immaculate wardrobe
and make up, to art collectors to
Goth rockers, punks, to regular
Joes. On Thursday, actors Sean
Penn and Jason Lee attended the
exclusive engagement.
Manson's paintings were reminiscent of 19th centuries German
expressionism, many of which
were similar to stylistically to the
work of Egon Shiele. Among the
self portraits
and portraits
of celebrities
including his
significant
other Dita Von
Tooco were subjects tVint were
enKi^tc that wwp
Teese,
clearly intended as social satire.
The satirical paintings included
a hermaphrodite nude of Hitler,
a version of Superman entitled
Ubermensch and a self-portrait
in which Manson depicts himself
as a creepy version of Mickey
Mouse.
Thought the event was free, in
order to meet Manson and get an
autograph, fans had to purchase
one of Manson's limited editions,
lithographs or posters, the cheapest ones starting at $20 apiece.
One of Manson's fans, Julia
Velasco of Pomona, complained
that she had to spend $160 in
order for everyone in her party
to meet Manson. Though some
of the attendees were irritated
by the commercialism associated with the event, most seemed
appreciative. Outside, I talked to
Lexa Vonn, of the rock group
Ophelia Rising. Vonn was handing out CDs to promote her band
and commended Manson for his
loyalty to his fans. Concerning Manson's paintings, Vonn
Pointed out that they look much
better in person than on the web.
Another fan I talked to, Naokol
Matsumoto, told me that she
came to the U.S. two years ago
to learn English for the express
purpose of communicating with
Marilyn Manson.

For those of you who are to Hollywood last weekend, at

interested in seeing Manson's most of them can be viewed grotesque/
and updated Journal on his
website. In his online journal
Manson had this to say about
his exhibition: "I paint scabs.
Cover wounds, encased in scars.
Paintings are seldom guilty and
often framed for crimes they
did not commit. Imprisoned
in jails that are owned by the
Bourgeois who treat them like
criminals...Kunsts!
Talking
about them and not to them."
And in reference to his upcoming album under the same name
Manson says, "the understanding of my art is only the sad
product of journalism. Fuck
art. I am art." Currently there
are not show dates available for
Manson's upcoming tour
On his influences, Manson
had this to say, "My inspiration
for this record came from historic parallels to my own present
position in popular culture. Most
notably, I found myself fascinated with the overwhelming
imaginative, sexually-depraved
artistic chaos that just bled from
some of history's greatest minds
as Berlin reached its creative
extreme peak. The unfortunate
onset of rigid control and conformity that brought Berlin to
its fiery end seemed to almost
mirror today's less violent, but
equally ignorant censorship and
Manson is much more than just
a shock rocker, as he is so often
referred to as in the media. I've
read his autobiography, listened
to his albums, seen his music
videos, listened to interviews,
and now I've seen his paintings. Listening to Manson talk,
it is evident that he is extremely
intelligent and articulate. Given
the range of his artist: interests
and ability, the fact that he has
had such a widespread influence
on pop culture as well as rallied
himself into a lucrative industry,
isn't very surprising. The term
Shock Rocker, doesn't describe
him as well as "artist". Regardless of personal taste, Manson's
art challenges anyone willing to
put their biases away and take
art for what it is worth; an intellectual stimulus that forces us to
think and open our minds. People
who don't understand Manson,
or think his art is gratuitous or
only done for shock value, are
people who have judged him
prematurely; people clearly have
the right to dismiss art without
bothering to investigate, or make
an informed judgment, but in my
opinion passing judgment in this
way is irresponsible and relates
back to what Manson is rebelling
against in thefirstplace. Anyone
who has the time to examine
contemporary art in depth will at
the very least respect Manson's
accomplishments as well as his
courage and determination under
heavy criticism, even if they
don't care for his art or music.

First off, this is a piece of those of
you who scoffed at the two previous articles concerting Halo for
the Xbox. I know many students
and individuals play games on
the Playstation, Gamecube, and
Xbox, but console games are
only a small vein when it comes
to tapping into the resource of
true gaming. Yes, I'm talking
about the PC and online gaming.
Taking nothing away from console games, they are fun and

PC is where it's at, if you don't

Console games are desired and
are always being updated for
better graphics, game play, and
the new move to playing them

is, no matter how high tech these
consoles become, the computer
is, and will be light years ahead

is concerned. So as not to bore

"Why at this point, at this
historical moment in time, do we
have a class called Multiethnic
American Literature?" - Ken
Mendoza, a LTWR professor
hereatCSUSM.
As a Literature and Writing
major at California State University San Marcos, I have been
forced to take many classes that
in one way or another involve
ethnic studies and cultural
diversity. Oftentimes, while I
am sitting in these classes, I find
myself wondering why the university has chosen to teach this
school of thought in a way that
points fingers at cultural differences. After the class lecture is
over, I never feel more connected
to someone else of the selected
ethnic background of the day, but
instead I feel further removed.
Take for example a class
like LTWR 450, Multiethnic
American Literature. The course
outline for this class says that it
is a class that offers a "Comparison of various ethnic American
discourses such as African
American, Jewish American,
Latino American, [and] Japanese
American." To title this course
Multiethnic American Literature
is a slap in the face to all of the
wonderful writers incorporated
into the syllabus.
Why not title this course
simply American Literature?
Why must the university tag
this course as Multiethnic? Are
they saying that all of the authors
that we read in United States Literature 309A and 309B have the
same ethnic background and that
that those backgrounds are not
ethnic? The fact that they must
separate this course, and tag it as
multiethnic, shows the real lack
of progress in cultural diversity
at this university.
I grew up in New York, where
nobody ever spoke of cultural
diversity. It was common to have
neighbors of different ethnic
backgrounds, but the idea was
that they were your neighbors.
Not your Jewish neighbors, or
your Latino neighbors, or your
African American Neighbors,
but simply the neighbors nextdoor. The fact that they may
have come a hundred years ago
from some other country did
not matter and was never talked
about.
K. Anthony Appiah, a professor at Harvard University, said in
one of his lectures that "American cultural distinctions cannot
be understood in terms of the
concept of race: the only race in
thé United States, is the human
race." He goes on to say "there
is danger in making racial identities too central to our conceptions of ourselves; while there is
a place for racial identities in a
world that is shaped by racism,
I shall argue, if we are to move
beyond racism we shall have
to move beyond current racial
identities."
Liberal
It is your lucky day. You may be
asking yourself, "Why, Matt?"
Well it is because today you are
going to hear the other side of
the story. Last week's commentary "Comedy Hour on NPR"
by Erik Roper contained much
comedic value.
First joke, he said President
Bush is our "illegally appointed
president." That's funny because
several liberal media outlets

and France pay 5 - 8 %. Right
now you may be saying "Wow
Matt that is amazing." And
you're darnrightit is.
A 1996 GAO report stated
that we spent $6.6 billion on
peacekeeping operations since
1992 and yet we have only been
accredited with $1.8 billion of
that money. So under the United
Nations Erroneous Dept. Act,
we stopped paying dues until
our overpayments have been
credited or reimbursed.

than 1%. Russia, Great Britain, conservative but because we
are paying with our taxes and
with our people (military) for a
world authority. Call me a crazy
member of the right wing conspiracy, but a world under the
control of a global government
scares me and the freedom that
has been preserved by my dad,
grandpa, and forefathers is at
risk. It is like "Ripley's Believe
It Or Not," but the U N has
already created a world court
and has been given American
soil by our previous president.
So, next time you watch liberals on TV remember this - they
think, "you are ignorant and
possibly even stupid" because
you listen to one side of the story
and believe it.
Matt Cotton
CAUSC Student
If CSUSM wants to celebrate
diversity, they should do so by
incorporation not by isolation.
There is no reason to have a class
called Multiethnic American Literature. These texts, if they are
worthy of being studied, should
be incorporated into the United
States Literature course because
they are an equal part of American Literature and not a separate
part. The University's program
right now is at the same place
the Civil Rights movement was
forty years ago when the thought
was separate but equal. We have
come to know that separate is
never equal, why hasn't the universityfiguredthat out?

I have been a student at
CSUSM my entire 4-year college
career and have eagerly enjoyed
the campus, the students and
even some of the faculty. However, this semester my view is
being drastically changed and
it is being altered in the form
of an overflow of cramped and
ridiculous parking! Basically as I
read the article from last week's

ugliness of our parking. There
is only 2,000 parking spaces on

together! That fact is that after
September 26, 2002, curb parking will no longer be allowed,
as well as stack parking to soon

red curb's disallowance due to

Could it be possible that inconveniently scheduled class times

students have little choice as to
what classes they need to take;
they must complete the courses
required for their major in order
to graduate. With this in mind,
you would think that the university would schedule similarly

could easily end one class and

Dear Editors:
I found your recent edition

would you place Mucky Mouse

humor, subtlety, or thoughtful
commentary, as well as informed
spelling and punctuation-so
what's the point? This is no
mouse, it's a sewer rat.
Actually, why would you want
such tasteless inanity in our

sincerely hope neither the

Pam Horner

This letter is in response to the
letter sent by Pam Horner. I
have had classes with Pam and
have always admired her intellect and contributions to class
discussions. Her letter to the

well composed.
As the creator of Mucky Mouse
I would like to respond to Pam's
letter in this way: I would not
have submitted Mucky Mouse
to the Pride last week if I had
learned about the Zingaro death
earlier. The comic was not a
response to his death, and was
drawn prior to his disappearance. Mucky Mouse in Suicide
preceded the news of Alex's
death and was left in the paper
accidentally. I myself did not
imagine a connection between
ing college. Is this really necessary? Should the greater student
population cater to the needs of a
select few? And to those people
who must waste their entire days
sitting around campus awaiting
their next class, which may be up
to nine hours later, is it fair that
you must wait just so you have a
guaranteed parking space?
believe it is the lack of spaces as
much as it is poor class scheduling. If classes were scheduled in
blocks, every few hours a ton
of spaces would open up for the
next block of students to go to
class. Maybe the real problem
is being overlooked; maybe the

scheduling.

When
asked
what were some of the things that
could be done tofightthe war on
terror and how to stop terrorism
from spreading, Byron offered a
profound quote. "Happy people
don't make history, we need to be
fostering conditions for meaningful, fair international trade. We
can be setting the conditions for
democracy but we can't impose
it, we can only provide the model
for opportunity. People in the
Middle East are stuck, give them
the opportunity." Given the fact
that in the Middle East, 65 percent of the population is between
15 and 25 with almost no job
prospects, this recipe is more
fitting than sending in random
troops. Many of these people
are college educated yet work as
street vendors because there's no
employment.
With regards to foreign policy,
Taiwan became another topic of
discussion. The current administration in Taiwan is dedicated
to keeping it independent from
China and is even conducting a
secret deal for eight new 'Dolphin' class submarines. Byron
responded that since president
Truman went to China in 1971
and signed the Taiwan Relations
Act, every president since him
has been committed to the act,
which guarantees one China and
the peaceful return of Taiwan.
Byron said that we should stay
committed to that. "What we
should be doing is facilitating the
foundations of modernity and
democracy with the Chinese,
we do that, the problem fades,"
he said.
Byron also added that the
number one issue with regards
to domestic policies was the
political system. "The political
system, it should be one person,
one vote, now it's one dollar,
one vote," he said. He pointed
out that in the '96 elections had
the most money spent and the
most votes recorded. He quoted
P.J. O'Rourke and his reference that we have turned into a
'Parliament of Whores' because
we pay so much attention to
special interest groups. Byron
has one other huge supporter of
his opinion of these groups and
that is Republican Senator John
McCain, who ironically belongs
to his opposition party.
According to Byron, we need
a constitutional amendment like
we had back in the 1800's, when
Mark Twain called it a 'Gilded
Age,' to stop the special interest
groups from retaining so much
hold over us. Part of that would
include public control over
campaign money. This means
The event that made Byron
decide to run for Congress
was after listening to senator
McCain speak in addition to
talking to documentary filmmaker, Michael Moore. Moore
quoted Margaret Mead as
saying, "If you want something
to happen, you have to get up and
do it yourself." It struck a chord
with Byron and he went home
and talked with his wife and the
rest is making history. He also
added, "Stay away from special
interest money, be committed!"
as his own advice to keep himself honest.
Byron needs roughly 36,000
votes to win. Furthermore, his
name will not appear anywhere
in the ballot; he is a write-in
candidate because the democrats
did not get a candidate in the primary. He is running for the 49th
district and his opponent is the
republican Dan Issa.
Byron also said, "This is your
chance to make a difference,
together we can make history."

Players familiar with- Warcraft II or Starcraft will notice
that game focus in Warcraft III

For the second time in the
last 30 years, the National
Aeronautics and Space A dministration (NASA) has lost a
space shuttle with astronauts
aboard. The explosion of the
space shuttle Columbia early
last Saturday m orning is the
first time in NASA's 42-year
history that a shuttle has been
lost upon reentry to Earth's
atmosphere. Within the last
week, NASA has observed
the anniversary of its only two
other space tragedies, the Challenger explosion, which killed
all seven astronauts on board
on Jan. 28, 1986, and Apollo I
s pacecraft fire that killed three
on Jan. 27, 1967. T his was the
88th space flight since the Challenger mission.

Like the Challenger mission,
there were seven astronauts
aboard Columbia, which had
been aiming for 9:16 a.m.
landing on Saturday in Cape
Canaveral, Florida.
Comprised of four US Navy, two
US Air Force, and one Israeli
Air Force personnel, the crew
members lost to the tragedy
were Shuttle Commander Rick
Husband, Michael Anderson,
Kalpana Chawla, William
McCool, David Brown, Laurel
Clark and Ilan Ramon, who
were on their way home f rom a
16-day mission to space when
their c raft broke apart. Mission Control in Houston immediately warned residents of the
Dallas and Ft. Worth areas in
Texas to stay away f rom any
falling debris f rom the shuttle
"due to the toxic nature of the
propellants used aboard the
shuttle."
The shuttle was 207,000 feet
above the E arth's s urface when
it disintegrated, ruling out any
possibility of a s urface to air
missile impact, according to
White House press secretary
A ri Fleischer. The shuttle was
also estimated to have been
traveling upwards of 12,000
miles per hour j ust before it

was found in north central
Texas. The flag in f ront of the

in Cape Canaveral, FL, were
lowered to half-mast by mid

acknowledging that the astronauts of the shuttle Columbia
had lost their lives.

before the explosion, right
around the area where the
foam had broken off over two
weeks earlier. The increase
in temperature and recorded
wind resistance caused the
shuttle's automatic pilot mechanism to change the course of
the shuttle during reentry,
which should not have caused
the shuttle to disintegrate, but
may have been an attempt by
the ship's computers to avert
the inevitable explosion.
Another speculation about
the demise of Columbia's
reentry is that it was first
scheduled for l iftoff in July
of last year, when the mission
was delayed due to a leak in
oxygen lines. Columbia had
been given all new equipment
and instrumentation since that
fuel tank, and the spacecraft
soon a fter burst into flames.
There were no space missions
for a f ull two years a fter the
Challenger tragedy. The next
scheduled NASA mission
was for the shuttle Atlantis
to leave the Kennedy Space
Center in Florida on March
1, 2003, in order to deliver
more supplies and equipment
to the international space station. Immediate word is that
the mission will be postponed
until f urther notice, however
the Atlantis mission was supposed to deliver a relief crew

Bone Marrow Recruitment
Drive Coming To Campus
By GERALD JONES
Pride Staff Writer
The San Diego Blood Bank
Stem Cell Donor Center brings
"Faces of Hope 2003" to Cal
State San Marcos, on Feb.
11 from 11 a.m. to 5 p.m. in
Founders' Plaza. "Faces of Hope
2003" is a bone marrow and
stem cell recruitment campaign
that is attempting to recruit a
larger and more diverse pool of
volunteer donors by targeting
members of minority groups.
Every year thousands of
African Americans, American
Indian/Alaska Natives, Asian/
Pacific Islanders and Hispanics
are diagnosed with leukemia,
aplastic anemia or other lifethreatening blood diseases. The
only hope for a cure is finding
a donor for a bone marrow or
stem cell transplant. However,
there are not enough members
of these communities donating
bone marrow or stem cells.
These transplants require
matching certain tissue traits of
the donor and patient. Because
these traits are inherited, the
most likely match would be a
family member. The problem
therein lies due to the fact that 70
percent of the people diagnosed
cannot find a match within their
own families. Although it is
possiblefor a patient to match a
donor from any racial or ethnic
group, the most common match
is someone from his or her own
ethnic group. Although many
minority patients are finding
donors for their transplants,
they are still less likely than
Caucasians to identify a matched
donor. More donors from these
ethnic minority groups are still
needed, so patients of every
racial and ethnic background
will have a chance of finding a
matched donor.
The key qualifications that
must be met by possible donors
are for her/him to be between
the ages of 18 and 60, have
no medical history of asthma,
cancer, diabetes, heart or
circulatory disease, be willing
to be a donor for anyone who
needs a transplant, and be
within 20 percent of her/his
ideal weight for her/his height
and age.
The North County Times,
local radio stations, and other
media outlets will cover the
event. For information those
interested can contact the

What Will Happen
to C SUSM When
California Runs Out
of Money?
By MEG EPPEL
Pride Staff Writer
Last November, California
voters passed Propositions
47 and 49, in* part to provide
the necessary funds to build
new classrooms and provide
after school care. However,,
since California is now facing
a multi-billion dollar deficit,
the money allocated for these
propositions no longer exists.
The loss of these funds will
adversely affect the California
schools system and its
students.
According to Ray Sotero, the
press secretary for the Budget
Department of the Assembly
of California, the state budget
has an overall deficit of 26
billion
dollars.
However,
Sotero says that Governor
Gray Davis has estimated the
deficit to be approximately
36 billon dollars. In order
to offset the largest deficit in
California history, DaVis plans
to make cuts throughout all
state funded agencies. A onecent increase in sales tax is
also planned.
The public education system,
including K-12, community
colleges, UC and CSU schools,
will see a loss of approximately
5.4 billion dollars. The CSU
system alone will sustain a
loss of 59.6 million dollars.
The reduction is unallocated
to allow the CSU the flexibility
to determine where to make
the cuts in order to minimize
the effects at the schools,

dean of the college of arts and

also added that students would

She has received a grant from
the National Institute of Aging to
study families who are caring for
an Alzheimer's patient. "I have
always been interested in how
family members respond to one
another's development," said Dr.
Hamill.
The Alzheimer's Association
web site, www.alz.org, features
educational information about
the disease and provides contact
information, but does not mention teens, or the special needs or
challenges they face when their
families are confronted with
caring for an AD patient.
As Americans are living
longer and the average age of
the population increases, Dr.
Hamill states that the fastest
growing segment of the population is people who are 85 years
and older. The risk for developing Alzheimer's is expected to
increase by between 30 and 50
percent. According to Hamill,
the care for these people will fall
on the families, "contrary to the

ested in adolescence because it
is a period of intense change and
growth. "In the case of looking
at how Alzheimer's impacts the
family, it is important to look at
how young people in the family
view the disease. Those young
people are the future caregivers,"
she said.
Another Alzheimer web site,
the National Institute of Aging at
www.alzheimers.org, under the
auspices of the U.S. Department
of Health and Human Services,
makes a brief mention of teenagers as "secondary caregivers."
The site acknowledges that the
teens do suffer as a result of their
parents' caregiving activities,
but gives no specific suggestions
about how to help teens cope
with the stress.
By JEANNE RAUPP SAPP
Pride Staff Writer
It's hard to think of anything
more devastating than looking
into the eyes of a loved one and
seeing a lack of recognition,
or even fear. That is what the
families of later stage victims of
Alzheimer's Disease (AD) face
every day. Much research has
been done on the stress faced by
primary caretakers, typically the
adult children and spouses, who
are called the "sandwich generation." Little research, however,
has been done on the effects that
this caretaking has on the next
generation, adolescents between
10 and 22 years old, living in the
homes of the caretakers.
the_project.htm.
Hamill will use the information gathered in the study to
create "interventions" for helping multi-generational caregivers. Although there is much
to be learned by studying the
difficulties in caregiving situations, the study goes beyond that.
Hamill said, "By identifying
those aspects that are rewarding
- and there are some, believe
me - we will be able to teach
families how they can increase
the positive experiences that they
have."
Along with a staff of graduate
students and research assistants,
Hamill will conduct phone interviews with the primary adult
caregiver, the spouse, and one
teen in the family. The family
will be paid $15 for participating
in a 30-minute phone interview.

APPLICATION DEADLINE IS FEBRUARY 28th
1 Arguably, higher education has its
own culture; a large family with a shared
system of meaning. For some students,
adaptation to the university culture
can be difficult and may result in the
student dropping out to avoid ambiguous
situations. Conversely, students who are
integrated into their campus culture are
more likely to have a positive college
experience.
At CSUSM, the Faculty Mentoring
Program (FMP) has courageously and
successfully created a common and
shared community for students who
are at risk of having a negative college
experience. The primary goal of FMP
is to increase retention and graduation
rates among these students. The program
features mentor-protégé relationships,
multiple support services, and sociocultural opportunities.
Since its inception in academic year
1991-1992, the FMP has acted as a bridge
between students and the educational
system. Cd-Directors Vicki Qolich
and Edward Pohlert uniquely manage
the program with a conscious blend of
academic and student service support
organizations.
At the heart of the program is the
mentor-protégé relationship. Mentors
consist .of volunteer faculty members
who are partnered with student protégés
on an individual basis. According to
Anna Fleming, FMP support assistant
and CSUSM student, the mentor-protégé
ratio càn be 1:3 but overwhelmingly is 1:
1 with approximately 80 mentors and 85
protégés. The mentors and protégés meet
at an orientation breakfast at the start
UÊSW "MMM**
COAST GUARD
AMD COAST 60ARD RÉSERVE
of the school year, where they receive
handbooks that explain their respective
roles and responsibilities. Thereafter,
they are encouraged to meet or make
contact monthly and to participate and
interact in various FMP-sponsored social
and cultural activities. Mentors offer
protégés wisdom, guidance, and support
in such a way that facilitates adjustment
to college life and bolsters the returns
that the protégés derive from their college
experience. The mentor, as trusted
advisor, provides guidance for both
baccalaureate and post-baccâlaureate
objectives.
FMP protégé Michelle Demont is a
senior with a major in sociology and
minor in criminology. She-explained
how the FMP program and her mentor,
professor Donna Goyer of the sociology
department, have been very influential
and important to Jier college career. "They
just give you moral support and help find
ways to motivate you," Demont said. In
fact, she explained how she was motivated
in part by her mentor to help organize the
Sociology Club and was subsequently
elected as the sociology club president
by her peers. "Donna really encouraged
me to become involved," said Demont.
Demont is planning to attend law school
as well as earn a doctorate degree after
her graduation from CSUSM. Demont
articulates her career goals with enviable
clarity and confidence.
In an effort to expand post-graduate
opportunities, the program offers the
FMP Post-Grad Test Registration*
Scholarship which will pay for four test
fees per Academic Year, i.e. LSAT, GRE,
GMAT, CBEST, RICA, etc. The program
also provides books and software on select
exams. Fleming explained "not only does
the program increase graduation rates but
it also increases the number of students
who go o n : to graduate schools These
students really never believed before that
they could."
^ .\ V
Another goal of FMP is to raise
socio-cultural awareness and provide
opportunities for mentors arid protégés
to foster their relationships. Toward this*
end, FMP sponsors two major social
events per academic year, which include
the Holiday Dialogue Gathering in
December and the Year-End Graduate
Awards ceremony in honor of graduating
students.
At the Holiday Dialogue
Gathering, the participants enjoy food,
games, and a gift exchange. The YearEnd Graduate Awards ceremony is the
highlight of the academic year as the
protégés have an opportunity to share
how important the program was for them
to reach their goals. Both Golich and
Fleming expressed how compelling the
end-of-year stories are. Fleming says,
"At the graduation ceremony, we see
tears of joy and appreciation." FMP also
purchases a limited number of tickets to
a diverse amount of cultural events at the
California Center for the Arts, Escondido,
and offers them to mentors and protégés
on a first response basis.
Goyer says of her experience, "It's
great to know students on a personal level
outside of the classroom." She adds that
the process is rewarding for her in that she

A Response to
Vincent Williams
Mr. Williams, first of all thank
you for taking the time to write
to The Pride with your views,
and for taking part in this public
forum regarding last week's illustration depicting Hitler in front of
a "No Parking" sign.
The "Stop 'spinning' and Just
Say Thank You" opinion, article
with which the illustration was
printed was not a complaint about
having to pay high parking fees.
The article and the Hitler graphic
were both intended to address
issues of propaganda and being
disrespected. Hitler has become
an icon and in the context in
which his image was employed,
it represents a reprimand and a
cautioning to the institution with
regard to propaganda. It was
intended to be offensive, and to
retaliate for the offense the author
of the article took when presented
The freedom of the press allows
The Pride to print whatever they
wish; good taste should have kept
them from printing this picture.
The "spinning" of fee increases is
in no way comparable to Hitler's
propaganda of war and genocide.
If the editors of The Pride
continue to feel the connection is
accurate, I urge them to visit the
Holocaust Memorial Museum.

A full life is lived in many
human contexts, and Peggy
Adams' life was indeed a
full one. I know that it was,
even though I knew her only
in the limited context of the
classroom and the campus,
because of the kind of person
she was. *
At the beginning of the
fall semester in 2001, I
began teaching a new class
on gender and sexuality in
American history. I was worried about the class, because
it would raise questions that
students might find difficult to talk about. I needn't
have worried, for a marvelous group of students had
enrolled. On the second day,
one brought a friend —Peggy
Adams, an articulate, pleasant
looking woman of about 50.

intelligence, humanity, and a

of humor, she quickly became
a class leader. Her emotional
maturity and verbal gifts
gave her a remarkable ability
to talk about experiences of
love, human bonding, parenthood, and loss. When it came,
time to talk about the sixties,
seventies, and eighties, she
shared her experiences with a
(mostly) younger group of students. Students gravitated to
her, and the class was a great
success. We had wonderful
conversations outside of class.
She was more like a colleague
than a student.

Similar searches are performed
each time we apply for a job

administrate this system to
monitor travelers? I project that on
a long-term basis, it would reduce
government spending (mostly on
thousands of unnecessary and
redundant TSA employee jobs)
and greatly reduce the amount
of unwarranted and unreasonable
searches performed everyday by
TSA employees.
On my way back from Alaska,
I was again subjected to a search

through the metal detector at
Anchorage International Airport,
I had unknowingly put my hand
in my pocket. Wow! Immediately
I was treated as a suspect that was
about to commit acts of terror
that the world had not yet seen!

me for putting my hand in my
pocket yelled to another TSA
employee (a man) to come over
and give me a 'full inspection'.

my metal belt buckle beeped.
Now I had to unbuckle my
pants in front of numerous other
travelers and allow the inspector
to take a peek at what I had
behind my belt buckle. After he
determined I carried no weapons
or bombs and that I wore boxers
from the GAP, he let me go.
As I sat down to put my shoes
back on (they had been submitted
to a bomb testing device) the
man voluntarily explained the
processes and procedures of the
TSA and in an almost apologetic
tone he stated that he was just
doing his job. Well good for him.
I 'm glad that my taxes are paying
for my inconvenient searches.
Attention CSUSM students!
Next time you fly, be aware
of the new and 'improved'
airport security. You may be
patted, wanded, and probed,
but I guarantee you will feel
completely free of any violation.
Until it happens again. And again.
And again. Then you too will
begin to wonder how the TSA
has improved airport security, if
not only to irritate, violate, and
harass thousands of innocent
Americans everyday.

Discount Campus Books shafted once again
By MICHAEL DOLAN
Pride StafFWriter
Discount Campus Books, an
off-campus bookstore, once again
has faced challenges in obtaining
textbook information for the fall
semester. The bookstore, which
touts itself for its 10 percent used
book discount off the University
Bookstore price, has served the
university with a lawsuit for
violating the California Public
Records Act due to the lack of
information sharing.
According to the California
Public Records Act, any record
that is not confidential is public
record said John Kilby, manager
of the store located across
Twin Oaks Valley Rd. from
the university. Therefore, if the
university retains a record of the
books ordered each semester,
then that information is public
record.
"I think we should have the
same access (to the booklist) as
other entities," said Kilby. "The
information is getting to Aztec
Shops; it should get to us too."

Aztec Shops run the University

the California State University

organization from the university

does not apply to the Foundation,"
said Smith. "The information they
have is not public information."
However, it is a question of
how that information is collectedthat is the issue of contention
from Cal State San Marcos. The
university maintains that Aztec
Shops collect book information
independently and there is no
resource at the university level
that collects or retains this
information.
"We are not asking Aztec
Shops for the information," said
Kilby. "All we are asking for is
the same access to the booklist as
the (university) bookstore has."
In the meantime, Kilby plays a
guessing game of the books to
order; in the back of the store are
39 cartons of books waiting to be
returned. The cartons are filled
with books that Kilby ordered
based on booklists from past
semesters, but that are no longer
being used in current classes.
Kilby maintains that the book

from the university. He contends
that it would be easy to require
professors to submit booklist
information to both Aztec Shops
and his store.
However, Smith denies there
is a record of the book orders
placed by professors kept by the
university.
"(The university) does not
keep copies of the booklist," said
Smith. At this time, the university
does not plan to implement
a process to track the books
professors order said Smith.
Cal State San Marcos President
Karen Haynes affirmed Smith's
statement.
"It is common practice where
a third party runs the bookstore,"
said Haynes. "The university
does not control the books used
and we are not the provider of the
books,"
If what both Smith and
Haynes said is accurate, then the
university has neither knowledge
of the books that are ordered nor
the content of these books.
In the meantime, Kilby relies
on the few professors that contact
him directly to let him know what
books to order. Also, book sales
representatives pass the word on
to Kilby about the books to be
used in the upcoming semester.
Student reaction to the limited
options for textbook purchases
has generally come out in favor
of the off-campus bookstore.
"I don't think it is right," said
Stacy Palchanis, a liberal studies
major. "If students are using their
own income (to purchase books),
they should have a choice "

�University Village adds diversity to
campus living
By ERIC MERCADO
Pride StafFWriter
University Village Apartments
(UVA) opened its doors to n onCSUSM students for thefirsttime
this fall.
Entering its second year in
operation, the UVA is filled to
capacity once again with minor
changes in who can be residents.
Since last October, CSUSM
current students were encouraged
to apply for a spot at UVA. It
was not until May 2004 that
advertising was made public for
non-CSUSM students to join
UVA. Advertising was aimed
primarily at Palomar College
students.
Housing
for
students
is determined by date of
application. Students that turned
A| H
in their requests early had a
more favorable chance of getting
housing.
According to Brian Dawson,
director of UVA, capacity is once
again at its limit. There will be a
total of 460 residents with 15 of
the students being from Palomar
this year.
"The students from Palomar
will most likely transfer to
CSUSM," said Dawson. "This
gives them an opportunity and
little taste of what our campus is
all about."
During the summer, it was
estimated that over 50 students
were on the waitlist to join UVA.
Currently there are only 10
students still waiting for housing.

�Jock Talk With Josh
BY JOSHUA SANDOVAL
Pride Staff Writer
Every four years since
776 B.C., the entire world
comes together to meet and
compete at the Olympic
Games. This year the
world convened in Athens,
Greece.
The Olympics always
seem to grab the casual
sports fan more aggressively
than professional sports
because in the Olympics
the athletes are competing
for their country rather than
for themselves. During the
Olympics you find people
saying things like, "Wow,
did you see the U.S. Men's
rowing team win the gold
the other day?" I mean, who
gets excited about rowing?
No one, it's just the fact that
these rowers did it for the
country.
I was with my friend Karin
last Thursday when the
women's soccer team won
the gold medal in overtime.
Her mom called her just to
ask if she heard the news
about the women's soccer
team. The Olympics are all
about having pride for your
country just like that.
These Olympics provided
many
discussions
for
Americans with a lot of
them being centered on
the disappointments. Tom
Pappas had to drop out of the
decathlon due to injury, and
Rulon Gardner wasn't able
to defend his title in Greco
Roman wrestling. Those
were two of the largest
disappointments. However,
the accomplishments by
the U.S. competitors are
what really stick out in most
people's minds. There have
been many jaw dropping
occurrences
in
these
Olympics.
In the past 100 years the
United States looked like
they were dueling with
small butter knives when it
came to fencing. However,
this year Mariel Zagunis
won the first fencing gold
medal for the United States
Since 1904 to end the
drought.
One
of
the more
remarkable performances
in these Olympics was from
the duo of Kerri Walsh
and Misty May in beach
volleyball. The duo beat up
on every other country like
there was not even another
team on the other side of the
net. Walsh and May did not
even lose a single set during
the entire Olympics to give
the U.S.A. its first gold in

Gold, silver, and bronze medals.

beach volleyball history.
The only team more
dominant than the combo
of Walsh and May was the
women's softball team.
The rest of the world didn't
know what they were
getting when they signed up
for women's softball. The
women's softball team won
hands down every single
game they competed in and
outscored their opponents
51-1 during the entire
tournament.
However, no one has
been more interesting to
the United States than the
young 19-year-old Michael
Phelps. Many people set
unrealistic expectations for
Phelps by saying that he
would break the record for
most gold medals in one
Olympics which is held by
Mark Spitz who won 7 gold
medals in 1972. Phelps did
tie an Olympic record by
winning the most medals in
one Olympics by capturing
eight, but only 6 were gold.
Going into the Olympics it
was thought to be Michael
Phelps versus the world
and by the looks of it,
he literally defeated the
world by capturing more
swimming medals than
17 other countries. Since
Phelps is only 19 the sky
is the limit, and in the 2008
games there is no doubt he
will be in China to go after
Mark Spitz's gold medal
record.
The U.S.A also showed
off in gymnastics. The
U.S. won both the men's
and women's individual
all around competitions. It
marked only the second time
in Olympic history in which
one country has swept the
individual all around. Carly
Patterson, 16, won gold for
the women and Paul Hamm
took it for the men.
It will be another four
years till the next summer
games but hopefully you
will keep that same pride
for your country over that
time.

T HE PRIDE
Go see "Fahrenheit 9/11"
By MICHAEL DOLAN
Pride SteffWriter
I met a woman over the weekend and we started a conversation that eventually turned to
the subject of the war in Iraq.
I voiced my disapproval for the
war to which she replied, "You're
not one of those Michael Moore
people, are you?" I confidently
answered, "Why yes, I agree
wholeheartedly with the work
Moore is doing." Seemingly f rustrated she said, "Well, I suppose
you are entitled to believe what
you want."
Indeed, I suppose I am.
Michael Moore has received
a fair share of both criticism
and praise for his eye-opening documentary, "Fahrenheit
9-11." However, no one should
be in the position to say that
they "suppose" I have a right to
EMMA
believe what I want just because
it disagrees with his or her own
opinion: that right is not a supposition.
The beauty about Michael
Moore's work i s based on his
inquisitive nature and his examinations of issues that are important to him. Moore does not sit
idly by and let decisions that
affect his life go unchallenged. I
do not and neither should you.
Our society is based on the
free exchange of ideas, and the
necessary dissention to challenge
to those ideas is what makes
Moore's work so important.
Moore is, in fact, an American
in the true sense of the word.
We can not honestly say we are
free Americans if we choose to
ignore the opinion of dissent that

An
bucks the current actions of the
powers to be. Is there anything
less American than blindly following the decisions of our leaders without asking the important
questions?
Go see "Fahrenheit 9-11." Even
if you do not agree with Moore,
you can never be told that you
did make an informed decision
based on both sides of the story.
In addition, you might see something that will change your mind
or inspire you to become more
politically motivated.
A fter all, we are in college to
expand our knowledge and n ot
just to be reaffirmed in what we
already know.

University Book shortage at campus store
Police
report
BY ZACHARY J. SIMON
Pride Staff Writer
Books for more than 22 professors did not arrive to the University bookstore before the end
of the first week. Of the 'Alert'
cards marking these particular
empty spaces, some explained
that these titles were not available due to late order, while
others read that this was due to
late instructor order. Whether or
not there was an intended difference between these two labels
remains to be seen.
In trying to explain the issue,
Professor Quinney speculated
that "The bookstore gets hit
really hard all at once with orders

BY ANTOINETTE JOHNSON
Pride Staff Writer
CSUSM Police are working to
combat the limits on department
expansion by working to increase
campus involvement within their
department. One such method is
the inclusion of the officers formerly assigned to Parking Services while also internally training the campus Community Service Officers.
Effective this semester, the
Community Service Officer staff
has increased to 12, which therefore allows two officers on duty
at all times. "Because the parking officers are responsible for
enforcing vehicle code laws and
regulations, they now answer to
University Police," said Chief of
Police Aaron Woodard. Woodard also commented on the benefits of including these officers BY CHRISTINE VAUGHAN

Consistently, professors said
that they inform their students
of f uture reading lists as soon
as possible so that they can purchase books online.
Professor Charles, however,
expressed that he was "actually quite sympathetic to the
plight of bookstores in this age
of Amazon. I realize this isn't
true of the sciences, but for history books that are not survey
textbooks (and even for some
books that are) the
greater volume and
the lack of "bricks

Amazon to undercut

considerably, even
on used books."
When questioned
on this matter via
email, most of these
professors remarked
that they had no criticism of the bookstore staff.

THE PRIDE
Breaking free of tradition this Spring Break 2006
ticipants will travel to and f rom
Oakland in vans and stay at a
local community church during
the program. The building will
provide the necessities including
a fully-equipped kitchen, bathrooms and a floor for students
to sleep on. Trip cost is $200
per student and, according to the
ASI Activities Coordinator, Sara
Gallegos, fundraising opportunities will be available for students in the hopes of covering all
expenses.
Interested students need to
apply by Tuesday, Jan. 31 and
submit an initial deposit of $50.
Applications are available in the
ASI business office, the Student
A ffairs office, or on the ASI webpage at www.csusm.edu/ASI. If
students have problems making
the down payment by Jan. 31,
they can arrange -special payment options with Gallegos. The
final balance of $150 will be due
March 10.
At this time, ASI can only offer
the trip to CSUSM students, faculty and staff. Participants are not
required to have prior skills, but
should come willing to take part
in the project enthusiastically.
The participants are expected to
contribute to the planning of the
trip, which involves attending biweekly meetings and fundraising.
Outside of working on homes, the
coordinators of the trip want to
plan other f un activities such as
sightseeing in the local areas.
The idea behind this trip is
to break away f rom the hazardous traditions of spring break to
create a safe, f un environment
for students to do something
constructive. This explains the
big rules: no drugs, alcohol or
gambling during the trip. Some
benefits to choosing Alternative
Spring Break over the traditional
Spring Break include: meeting
new people, learning new skills,
immersing yourself in the reality of hardship, working with a
highly regarded non-profit organization, building your resume,
partaking in change, and creating
a positive, lasting memory.
"It is hard to put in words the
feeling that you get when you
take yourself out of your comfort
zone and learn things about yourself, and what your abilities are,"
mentioned Gallegos.
Students looking for something
more meaningful to do with their
time off should look no further
than Alternative Spring Break
where space is still limited.

trip visit www.habitat.org/ccyp/

important that each individual
take the initiative to recycle for
themselves. The rest will be taken
care of. Each person needs to do
their part."
Cal State San Marcos provides
students, faculty and staff with
many available options to contribute to a 'greener' campus and
environment. Recycling bins can
be found next to almost every
exterior trash can and in the hallways of many high-traffic buildings. From scribbled-on pages
to plastic coffee cups to coffee
grinds, the Green Team enthusiastically encourages everyone
to recycle. To best help eliminate the need for recycling, Cougars can purchase reusable cups,
available in the University Store
and in The Dome, which come
with a complimentary drink.
Reducing is also a recommended
option. Habits such as printing on
both sides of a paper and using
Tupperware instead of Ziploc are
highly recommended.
While recycling is mandated
in California's public institutions, it's hard to understand how
highly the honor and prestige is
in winning the competition.
"This is awfully big on the east
coast. We didn't really know how
big this was. It has national resonance. We've been put on the
map, in a positive way/' mentioned Hanson about Cal State
San Marcos' win last year. "The
competition is only going t6 get
bigger and bigger and bigger."
The slogan is: Reduce, Reuse,
Recycle. Recycling should be
considered the last option as with
this year's new focus, Cal State
San Marcos has been challenged
to reduce its overall campus-wide
amount of both trash and recyclables. For more information on the
program and how to get involved,

Across the Globe, and Women as
Global Business Leaders."
Women's Studies has approximately 30 students participating
in the major program, with additional students participating in
the minor program and at least
500 students enrolling in various
courses to satisfy upper and lower
division requirements. Equipped
with three tenure professors and
an average of five to seven lecturers, the department also hopes
to expand its staff to accommodate the new coursework and
help draw in students by offering
more consecutive classes.
"The task force seems interested in our transformation and
direction of the department. The
key message we have received
f rom them has been to expand
our core offerings," said Allison,
"by relying less of sociology, psychology and other majors to support the degree program by sharing courses. We will be working
on strengthening our internal
capabilities."
If this proposal for Gender and
Sexuality Studies is approved, by
fall 2007 students will have more
courses to choose from that involve
contemporary issues with a globalfocus. For more information about
the Women's Studies department,
please contact Dr. Terry Allison at

participate in the Alternative
Spring Break program, sponsored by ASI.
With winter break now a
memory, the time has come to
start counting down the days until
Spring Break. Instead of drinking
away time, money, and precious
brain cells this spring break, students have the option to apply to
a program that will enable them
to contribute to something positive by participating in this special program.

Successful Student: Casey Raymond
B Y L ISA L ANDERS
P ride S taff W riter
Many of us at Cal State San
Marcos ponder the notion of a life
outside of college and our measly
part time jobs. We have been on
the education grind now for at
least four years straight, accustomed to writing papers, group
work, lectures, and of course that
mile walk we must endure to get to
our first class. Every semester we
go through these rituals in hope of
a promising career that will propel
us into the next step of our young
adult lives. Undoubtedly some of
us already have a career plan for
the next five years after college,
however, most still answer Grandma's notorious Christmas dinner
question: "So what are you going
to do when you get out of school?"
with a solid "I'm not sure yet."
Many then think to themselves
and decide that whatever comes
along is supposed to, justifying it
as a matter of fate.
Maybe it was fate that helped
me find a person who has survived
the CSUSM experience and is now
very productive in her new career.
Casey Raymond graduated in
2003, but started at a junior college near her home in Rancho
Cucamonga just to fulfill her general requirements. It was not until
she took a Sociology course there
that she became interested in it for
her major.
"I wanted to learn about society
and the people in it," she reflects.
Her next step in completing her
general Ed was to find a Cal State
that would not only be good for her
major, but would also fit her per-
sonal needs as well. So, as most of
us would do, she went to the internet for answers. Consequently she
found that Cal Sate San Marcos
was rated third among the top five
schools for Sociology. She also relished in the fact that it was one of
the newest Cal States and was still
very close to the beach.
Unlike a growing number of
students, it took Casey only a total
of four years to graduate.
"I took more than a full load
each semester, I took a summer
school course, and I really like
school, it was just easy for me."
In addition to her maintaining a full load she also worked
for Ralph's Grocery Store as a
cashier.

In addition to the Citizen's Academy, the

implemented, it will allow students and
faculty to purchase Microdot kits from
the University Store for marking valuables
such as laptop computers, cell phones,
iPods, books, calculators and palm pilots. If
stolen, marked items can be traced by University Police according to the Microdot

THE PRIDE
Two students in transition
BY JENNY NGUYEN
Pride Staff Writer
School. Work. Eat. Sleep.
School. Work. Eat. Sleep.
School. Work. Party. No
Sleep.
Sound familiar? This was and
is my life. I may be new here to
the CSUSM campus, but attending different colleges and universities is nothing new to me.
I'm 25 years old, graduated high
school in 1998, and am literally
working on my "10 yr. Bachelor's Degree".
I grew up in San Diego,
the oldest of three children.
Although others may have said
I had strict parents, to me I had
"abnormally" strict parents. If
homework was due at the end of
the week, my parents made sure
that it was completed the same
day I received the assignment.
I was not allowed to talk and
gossip on the phone like most
kids did, I wasn't even allowed
to know any boys, let alone talk
to them! Not only did homework have to be done before I
was allowed to watch TV, but
also all household chores.
Take out the trash. Fold the
laundry. Clean my room. Wash
the dishes.
It was unbearable!
Naturally, as soon as I graduated high school, I took the first
chance I got to get out of my
parents, grip. I fled to Brigham
Young University in Provo,
Utah. Why Utah of all places?
Well I was raised a member of
the Church of Jesus Christ of
Latter Day Saints, also known
as the Mormon Church. My parents did everything they could
to talk me into staying in San
Diego and attending Mesa College, but I was determined to
get away and see what was out
there.
Having sent in my acceptance
to BYU at the very last minute,
I was not able to get into the
dorms there, so as a 17 year old
freshman, I shared a three bedroom apartment with five other
girls. I was thrown into my own
version of MTV's Real World.
Now that I was free, f ree as a
bird, I went out of control. I had
What
if
no limits, no boundaries, no one
telling me what to do. It was
great!!
Or so I thought. Do you know
how much partying they do in
Utah?! Well* I was always out
clubbing, shooting pool, going
to house parties, and whatever
else I could do, I did. Of course I
never showed up to my morning
classes, and my grades slipped.
And yet, as stubborn and hard
headed as I was, I actually
started to miss my family and
friends in San Diego.
My parents convinced me to
move back a fter j ust one year at
BYU. I figured they were right;
I had no clue what I wanted to
major in, I was living off student loans, I was 18 and as lost
and confused as ever. They
had reeled me in with the line,
"Come home where it's f ree,
take the time to find what it is
you want to do, then go back up
there with a plan."
I never went back.
You can't give a kid candy,
then take it away and expect
everything to be ok. My f reedom was my candy, and the
minute I moved back home, the
candy was snatched right out
of my fingers. I had a curfew,
I was not allowed on the phone
a fter 9pm, I was not allowed out
of the house unless my parents
knew and met who I was going
out with. It was back to the jailhouse for me! I soon obtained a
j ob and attended Mesa College. I
was a part time bank teller, part
time college student, but also
still a part time partygoer.
I quickly became a shame
to my parents as I spent several years bouncing around the
San Diego County College District. Miramar, City, Mesa, I've
almost attended them all. In the
midst of this, I thought that I had
to obtain my freedom back, so I
moved out and got a roommate.
Life was soon a lot harder than
I had expected it to be. But as
hard headed as I am, I was not
going back to that jailhouse even
though the pressure was on nice
and strong. My younger brother
was doing well at San Diego
State University, and somehow,
I made my own way into SDSU.
I'm
I hated math and science, and
I loved to talk and write, so
majoring in Communication
j ust came naturally for me.
At this point, I was working
two part time jobs j ust to pay
the rent, and it was safe to guess
that my grades at SDSU were
starting to slip. In fact, they
slipped to the point that I found
myself on academic probation,
then disqualified. This was a
cold hard slap in the face.
I was then determined to get
back into school and do it right.
SDSU would only take me
back in a fter a period of time,
and under certain criteria that I
thought was a bit ridiculous, so
I explored my options.
There were a few people I
knew who had attended and
graduated f rom Cal State San
Marcos, and offered high recommendations. Some said it was
a smaller campus, less crowded.
Others have said it's j ust the
atmosphere that's better. All
have warned me about the stairs,
calling it CSU Stair Master!
For the week that I've been
here I have noticed that the
campus is beautiful. The
grounds are kept nice and clean,
and parking is not nearly as bad
as it is at SDSU. The people
here at CSUSM seem a lot more
down to earth and easy to talk
to. I 'm not sure what it is about
this place, but I 'm confident that
this will be my last stop at a college or university.
In college, I leaped at a chance
to get a tutor to help me pass
my horrid math classes to get on
with my life.
My problem is I 'm good at
being enveloped in the now.
At seventeen I felt old and that
life was flashing uncontrollably
before my eyes. Once through
junior high, every following
year seemed to gather speed. I
didn't realize as much as I do
now that high school was truly
only a stepping stone for the
next phases of life.
No time slips by as quickly
as the college years. I have seen
this school expand and change
since I arrived as a freshman
in the fall of 2002. I can still
distinctly remember freshman
year in which any student could
find parking i athe first lot without waiting for another person
to leave (and I 'm talking about
prime, first row parking!). I picture the tiny old library and how
I had to carry my track sports
bag with me all day because I
carpooled to a school that didn't
yet have a field house f ull of
lockers. My first friendships
were formed with people on the
track team my first year, and I
remember how most of them
didn't return my second year.

�OPINION
THE PRIDE
Tuesday, January 24, 2006
Parking is NOT easy when you are a disabled student
My first week back to school
involved abdominal surgery
and a special medical parking
permit at Cal State San Marcos.
I am a disabled student. My disease requires that I have surgery
about every year or so, depending on the severity of my symptoms.
This past week was the third
surgery I have endured while
attending CSUSM. Since I still
had two weeks left to recover
once spring semester started,
I was eligible for a temporary
medical permit so that I could
park in what most students call
The Dome parking lot. This
sounds great. As anyone who
attends CSUSM would know,
walking up Craven Rd. with
your backpack wouldn't work
out after having abdominal surgery.
So, here is the problem. The
first day of school I arrived at
7:30 a.m. I arrived to find that
the one medical permit spot on
the CSUSM campus had already
been taken. I spoke to someone in parking services to find
a solution. I was told to "arrive
earlier, or, get a ride to school."
I was also told to move my car
since I was not in the medical
permit spot% I explained that I
just had abdominal surgery, but
the parking services still said I
had to move my car.
Why is it that, with a school of
over 7,000 students, there is only
one medical parking spot? There
used t o be two. I knew from my
past surgeries that it was difficult to get one of the two spots,
but for some reason, parking
took one of those spots away. I
can't imagine how parking ser-
vices could decide to do this.
First of all, our campus is not
very disabled student friendly.
It is very difficult to get around
when you are trying to heal, or
dealing with the daily symptoms
of your disability. If you are a student with a disability, or who has
to have surgery, or even a student
who has had some type of accident, it is not easy to get around.
Why doesn't packing care about
having enough medical permit
spots to serve students with disabilities? The answer: If a student needs a medical/disabled
parking pass for more than 14
days they can apply for a DMV
permit which would give them
a placard to park in handicap
parking. This means anything
less than two weeks and you are
going to be one of the many disabled students fighting for that
one spot. This may be because
parking does not legally have to
supply these spots; they have a
choice; and here at CSUSM, they
choose not to. Well, they choose
to supply one. I find this deeply
disheartening. In fact, it is completely ridiculous.

Robbins Report
By JASON ROBBINS
Special to The Pride
In a speech last week, you said
"I think the worst thing that can
happen for decision-makers is to
get a filtered point of view."
Mr. President, we agree on
something.
I know that you're busy with all
that Commander in Chief business, but if you have a moment
I'd like to f urther contaminate
your understanding of current
events.
According to the folks that
repeat stuff for money, ydu would
prefer a "diplomatic" solution to
the almost nuclear (translated:
nukular) standoff with Iran.
While diplomacy is also my
preference, I want to make sure
that we both understand what the
word doesn't mean.
The word "diplomacy" derives
from the Greek word "diploma",
which describes something that
has been folded in half. One can
trace the effects of this original meaning all the way up to
modern American diplomacy. I
think it was a famous gay marriage activist who, during long
distance calls to his suspicious
Arab lover, advocated folding the
entire world into two sides—one

made up of those who are with
us, and another made up of those
who are against us. I digress.
Clarification #1: The fact that
''diploma" describes something
that has been folded into two
should not compel you (in preferring diplomacy) to treat the
Middle East like a piece of paper
with Operation Iraqi Freedom to
the right of the fold and Operation Iranian Freedom to the left.
Plus placing "evils" beside a fold
rather than upon an axis might
confuse people.
In addition to being descriptive and potentially confusing,
one might also consider the word
"diplomacy" to be ominous. For
instance, one can arrange its letters to spell words like Modi
(which means wrath in Norse
Mythology), P.L.O. (which is a
terrorist organization according to Israel), and malo (which
means bad in Spanish).
Clarification #2: The sum of
diplomacy doesn't have to equal
the sum of its parts. I mean,
one can arrange the letters in
the name George Walker Bush
to spell "war loser" and "AWOL
shrub". Check it out.

Tristan & Isolde', a new
face on an old story
BY DAVID GATLEY
Pride Staff Writer
If you didn't see director Kevin
Reynolds' (The Count of Monte
Cristo, Waterworld) Tristan and
Isolde this weekend, don't worry
too much; you've already seen it
a hundred times.
Here's the gist: a noble knight,
Tristan (James Franco), and
soon to be Queen Isolde (Sophia
Myles) are born into royalty for
rival countries. The stars align
and fate intervenes, bringing the
two together in a chance meeting
some twenty or so years later. The
two secretly fall in love and are
then torn apart in what becomes
an epic struggle between loyalty
to ones' family and true love. If
this story sounds vaguely familiar, then congratulations, you
have a pulse! It's been done over
and over and over, each time hitting the same mark as Tristan
and Isolde did; a sweetly shallow love story that we will all
forget about when the next version comes out next year.
The movie did, however,

you promise not to tell anyone,
part of me actually enjoyed the
movie. Something about the
cliché hope for true love conquering all is always intriguing.
The moVie was filmed beautifully, and should be nominated
for several awards accordingly.
The lighting was masterfully
captured and almost filled the
romantic void between the
actors. Moreover, the costumes
and set designs were some of the
best and most realistic I've ever
seen. In every scene it seems
every little detail had been
thought out and organized to
contribute to the greater picture.
This is one of the first movies
to capture the time period without exaggeration. The overall feel and mood of the movie
definitely helped add to the love
story, which needed all the help
it could get.
All the emotion for love that
transcends all was there, but
it felt strangely odd and out of

place. Nevertheless, if the girl
the row over from me was evident
of anything, this story should be
good for at least a couple of tear
jerking scenes. My advice for
thé guys: be ready to shell out
twenty bucks to take your girlfriend to a typical chick flick,
and use this movie as leverage to
take her to see Underworld Evolution. As for the girls, you more
than likely know exactly how
this movie will play out, and you
won't be disappointed.
You know, it's somewhat fitting
that most movies about true love
narrowly miss the mark. Despite
their best efforts, it always seems
evident that the two star-crossed
lovers are after all acting for
our enjoyment. Perhaps that's
why we go back, time and time
again, to watch this story unfold;
to see if true love can actually be
found. Or, maybe it's because
it's the middle of January and
there's nothing else to do. Either
way, if you find yourself having
to pick a romantic date movie,
Tristan and Isolde should cater
to the evening appropriately, and
if you don't like it, don't worry,
a new version will be out shortly
with different actors who will
undoubtedly find themselves
lost in true love.

A view of the new parking lot from Markstein Hall.
BY DAVID BAUER
Pride Staff Writer
After several months of work,
Parking and Transportation
Services has made significant
changes to parking conditions
on campus the most prominent
of which is the addition of parking lot "F". Accommodating over
1500 vehicles, lot "F" is the largest surface lot to date at CSUSM.
According to the Parking and
Transportation Services website,
other additions include upgraded
parking signage, refreshed surfaces for parking lots "B" and
"C", an extension of Campus
View Drive providing access
to parking lots "F" and "H".
3
m
Access to parking lot "H" will be
redirected through the new parking lot (lot "F") and the current
entrance to lot H behind Markstein Hall will be closed. Parking lot "H" will now be a faculty/
staff and disabled only parking
lot. To help fund these changes,
parking fees for the fall semester
have been increased to $248.00
and $315.00 for UVA students,
with another increase is planned
to be implemented later.
Lot "F" will have the following
features, added carpool spaces,
95 motorcycle spaces, drive up
and walk up permit machines
with credit card capability, emergency pole stations and a new
entrance to parking lot "H".

classes without textbooks

Zachary Simon ponders why he ever bought so many books for class.
Saving money while going
to college can be a difficult
task. Yet one way to save literally thousands of dollars
during your years at college
is to simply not buy your textbooks. It sounds harder than it
is but if you can handle it, there
are a number of simple ways
to not buy your textbooks and
still pass your classes.
First off, don't buy your
books ahead of time. A lot of
students stress about buying
their textbooks, and making
sure they do the readings.
Yet stressing won't necessarily produce an A at the end of
the semester. It's like getting
nervous before a test; you aire
only doing yourself a disservice. Instead of buying your
textbooks before a class starts,
wait until you're actually in
the class for a few days to see
if the teacher is really going
to use the books. Teachers are
required to assign textbooks
for their classes, even if they
are not going to use them. Plus,
p ^ l j ^ l i yott looking f M ^ ^ d to for Fall 2006?
many assigned textbooks are
often only recommended and
not required by teachers. More
often than not if you simply
attend class and pay attention to the lectures you'll pass
without a problem and without
the need of the textbooks.
Of course, this doesn't work
for all classes, and if you really
need to have or use a textbook
for one of your classes there
are cheaper ways to access
them than visiting the campus
bookstore. For example, try
borrowing the required reading from someone else in the
class. Many teachers often
only use the textbooks as a
way to supplement material
learned in class, thus you may
only need the text once or twice
during a semester. Classmates
are usually more than willing
to loan you a book, especially
if it's only for a day or two.
Another good method of
gaining access to textbook
information, if needed, is
through the Internet. For
example, if you have a membership to amazon.com you
can actually access many

I jumped into the work
force as soon as I turned eighteen, and worked fulltime for
nearly twelve years.
This time included eight
years of military service, in
which I signed up for the G.I.
Bill, in hopes to go to college some day. I began college around my second year
of my military service, working slowly, but methodically,
toward my degree. Changing
my degree a couple times,
I seemed to start over every
time.
When I left the military, I
had a goal in mind: college.
Well, one thing led to another,
and I got sidetracked. I went
back to work fulltime again,
chipping away at classes at
night.
I decided two years ago
to devote my entire time to
finishing my degree. I began
my sabbatical from work in
order to finish, finally after
several years, my bachelor's
degree. My company seemed
happy enough to let me take
the time and return when I
was finished, but I had other
plans.
I walked in the graduation
ceremony in May 2006, but
had to return for classes in
both sessions of the summer
semester. So, two weeks ago,
I actually finished my last
class of my college career,

books in their entirety online,
including many books used
for CSUSM classes, without
paying a penny. If you need a
textbook for more than a few
days, try simply using the
library. Even if the book is
not shelved locally, the library
wilt order just about any book
you need, for free, through
inter-library loan.
If all else fails and you must
buy a textbook, visit websites
like half.com to find textbooks at their cheapest. Publishers make their money by
constantly releasing new editions of textbooks each year,
keeping prices high. Yet, often
the information contained in
a new textbook edition is the
same as in the older editions.
Thus, if you need a 7th edition
of a $100 book, you can probably find the 5th edition of that
same book for literally $10
online.
It's well known how expensive textbooks can be, so don't
let them break your wallet;
there are plenty of ways
around buying and paying lots
of money for your textbooks.

THE PRIDE
after spending over twelve
years working on a four year
degree.
So what is life like after
college? Well, it seems that it
is exactly the same as when I
entered.
Thefirstthing I committed
to was a vacation. I took my
wife to Las Vegas to make
up all of the time I spent at
school studying and working.
It was nice to spend my first
weekend in years not worrying about my homework.
I returned to my job,
because I sat around not sending my résumé in proper time
for any interviews during
summer session, and found it
was waiting for me. In fact, it
was like returning home after
several ears tofindyour room
the same, but covered in dust.
The company did not replace
me, though, I wish they had.
I spent all this time to
return to the same job, I can't
wait until my résumé catches
they èye of a great company
with large salaries and even
better benefits.
So, I worked on my résumé,
spending a full week tweaking small elements on the
résumé. I found out that it
takes as much time as a full
time job, to find a full time
job.
I'm slowly coming around
to the idea that I will return to
school. I'm currently looking
at law school for my return in
education.

While the weather is still
hot during the days, the evenings
have become increasingly cool
as the fall semester begins. The
change in weather inevitably
leads to a change in beers—the
sweeter and lighter colored beers
and ales of summer give way to
richer and more f ull bodied beers
of fall. One beer that is perfect
for the colder evenings of the
beginning of fall is Birra
Moretti.
While
pouring
it, you will first smell the
strong malt flavor and hear
the slight hiss of carbonation.
The beer is a rich straw color,
and is best served between
41-45 degrees. The bottle is
dark brown with a picture of
a mustached man, holding a
large beer stein. The man on
the label's eyes are downcast,
he looks tired andpresumably
somewhat inebriated. This
picture accurately describes
the experience of drinking
Birra Moretti—a quiet and
calming experience. Much like
the fall semester, the beer is heavy

enough to drink leisurely. This is
not a beer for a night out on the
town; rather it is best for quiet
evenings after a hard day's work
or study.
First produced in 1859
in the city of Udine, in the Friuli
region of Italy, Birra Moretti is
a 4.6% alcoholic lager with a
smell and taste reminiscent of
some Austrian beers. The beer
is now brewed and bottled by
Heineken Italia in Comun
Nuovo, Italy and imported
by Star Brand Imports.
While it is not widely
available, Birra Moretti is
mostly found at specialty
beer dealers and fortunately in some Italian restaurants. While it stands
alone well, the beer is best
served with the warm and
hearty pasta dishes of its
home country Italy.

Editor in Chief
I really like most of M. Night
Shamalan's work.
However,
"Lady In the Water" did not
follow suit. Much like most of his
films, "Lady in the Water" was
marketed as a suspenseful thriller
and much like the others, was anything but. Films like "Unbreakable" and "The Village" miss the
thriller mark but cover the gap
with depth of story and wonderful
visuals within the film; making
the films enjoyable on at least
one level. "Lady in the Water"
is about as deep as the children's
pool, the visuals are mediocre at
best and the plot is, well imagine turning the popular nursery
rhyme "Jack and Jill went up the
hill to fetch a pail of water" into a
2 hour long movie and you can get
a good idea of what to expect. Of
course Paul Giamatti and Bryce
Dallas Howard turn in stellar performances but it is altogether too
little too late. In case you didn't
see the movie already, don't even
bother renting it. If you were part
of the unlucky few who did see
the movie, my sympathies.

the home of Louis Lane and spies
on her with his super peepers and
her triple personality superhero.
I can only suggest replacing her
altogether for the now dubious
sequel.
My personal favorite character, Lex Luthor, was well played
by Kevin Spacey. He was charismatic when needed, and plotted
evil well. I only wish they gave
him some new plan do plot rather
than land deals, just as in the first
Superman.
Overall, the movie had some
really good action, but most of
that was in the trailers. The love
story between Louis and Clark
seemed to dominate the entire
movie. It's really upsetting that I
enjoyed movies like "The Incredibles" or even "Sky High" more
than "Superman Returns". Bryan
Singer should go back to "Xmen" and give the next Superman to Christopher Nolan.

Alliance against budget cuts update
BY JACKIE CARBAJAL
Pride Staff Writer
Last Monday, the college community allied together for a
common cause protesting against
Governor Schwarzenegger's proposed cuts to California's higher
education system.
Protests occurred in various circuits throughout the state. In Sacramento, more than 2,000 students
participated in the march. Protesters in Los Angeles marched to the
governor's office at the Reagan
State Building. Students in San
Diego, Riverside and Santa Barbara held similar protests.
Lieutenant Governor and advocate of freezing tuition hikes, John
Garamendi, joined protesters in
Sacramento.
"There is no more important
investment than the investment
in students," said Garamendi in
an immediate press release from
the California State Student Association. "We must stop taxing our
young people, and we must once
again invest in the intellectual
infrastructure of our state."
Also in attendance at the Sacramento protest were Senate President Pro Tem Don Perata, Assembly Speaker Fabian Nunez, Senate
President Pro Tem elect Darrell
Steinberg, " Assembly members

8th" grade student who was shot
and killed at a California school
on Feb. 12, 2008 because of his
sexual orientation and gender

"Students across the state are
already facing an affordability
crisis," stated Dina Cervantes,
Board Chair for the California
State Student Association. "These
fee hikes force students to drop
out of school or take on a 20 hour
plus work week in addition to their
classes," she stated. "Even if we
work and go to school, many of us
still end up thousands of dollars in
debt after we graduate."
These efforts aim to convince
the governor to revise the budget
proposal he is to submit in May.

tremendous numbers and we had to
really chip away at their lead," said
Carl Hanson with Faculty Services.
"It took an incredible 75.69%
to achieve victory this year. Next
year, we'll probably have to go even
higher," said Hanson.
"It makes mefeelreally proud to
be a part of CSUSM and to know
that we are number one in recycling," said Junior Business Major
BeccaChaney.
The annual contest consists of a
ten-week long competition. During
the competition, college campuses
compete nationwide in various categories involving the reduction of
waste. With more colleges entering
each year, the contest adds categories accordingly. The contest began
in 2001 with two competing colleges. The contest seems to double
each year. In 2007, more than 200
colleges entered. In 2008, the competition doubled yet again to more
than 400 including nearby colleges
San Diego State University and
University of California San Diego,
This year the contest split the
event into Whole Campus Division and Partial Campus Division.
CSUSM won Grand Champion and
others awards in 2007 and 2006. In
2005, the contest contained only
two categories. CSUSM almost
won Per Capita in 2005 but placed
first in Recycling Rate.
"We would like to thank everyone who contributed to CSUSM's
victory by participating in RecycleMania 2008. We believe that our
strength is consistency. We have
created an environment at this institution where recycling is just part
of our campus climate. It is in our
collective culture. We simply need
to maintain our habits today and
pass on the legacy of environmental
awareness to each new generation of
students tomorrow," said Hanson.
The contest also relies on the
efforts of the Green Team and the
Blue Crew. The two groups are
major components in the competition. The Green Team conSee Recycle, Page 4

they have little to o ffer in
t erms of art or entertainment. The modern trend
is to parody a genre or
type of movie and title it
as such, but the humor is
not clever, thus making
the f ilm unwatchable.
The producers of these
movies are more concerned
with profits than making
a decent film. Such is the case
with "The Simpsons Movie."
By slapping "The Simpsons"
title on this flick, they conned
countless people into seeing this
awful film. If one were a true fan
of "The Simpsons," they would
not like this movie because it is
so far of the elements that make
the show great.
Though there are many ways
to determine the quality of a
f ilm before seeing it, having
the word "movie" in the title is
a red f lag for a bad one. This
technique is o ften associated
with comedies, and the movies
this distinction belongs to are
crude and tasteless. The only
way it can stop is if moviegoers say 'no,' and r efuse to see

From BUDGETS, page 1
Thursday, April 24—CSUSM President Karen Haynes held a University
Budget forum to report back on information she obtained during a system wide
presidents' meeting with CSU Chancellor Charles B. Reed. Haynes has worked
closely with her Executive Council and
University Budget committee in recent
weeks in preparation of addressing the
cuts to the campus community.
"Nobody's really saying that there's
going to be much of a positive solution for '08-09 and therefore, it's going
to take post the national election for
some bipartisan movement in this state
for revenue enhancement solutions for
'09-10," said Haynes, when asked how
long it would take before colleges could
see progress. "How fast that's going to
happen, post the election? People are not
quite as confident, so we are very informally saying that it could well be two
years before we can right this California
state economy."
In addition to the budget update, the
University Budget committee distributed
petitions to each person in attendance
and collected them, promising to fax
each one to the governor later that day.
Concurrently, CSUSM set up outdoor
phones and fax banks in Kellogg Plaza
for students, s taff, and faculty to tell the
governor not to cut the CSU.

happy with the numbers of nominations
that we got," said Franklin.
Anybody can attend this event,
although an RSVP was suggested. President Karen Haynes will be attending the
event to deliver an opening speech, as
well as guest keynote speaker, Ashley
Walker, an inductee into the 2006 to the
Hall of Fame for the Women's History
Museum Education Center.
With so many different events put on

Summer vacation savings:
W ays t o h ave f un in t he s un e ven o n a b udget
BY ARIANNE SCHULZ
Pride Staff Writer
With summer break quickly .approaching, now is the time to plan ahead for
summer vacation. College students typically have a smaller vacation budget, but
thisv should not limit f un and memorable
vacation options. Careful and thoughtful prioritizing can maximize à budget
to make the most of summer vacation.
If a vacation includes a foreign country,
a passport will be required as verifiable
identification, so have a valid passport
available well in advance of the travel
date. There are many low budget vacation
activities available—with some creative
thinking it is easy to make a summer trip
into a memorable event.
1) Road Trip
One choice is the idealistic "road trip."
It may sound unoriginal—and there are
certainly cons to this because of rising
gas prices—but a road trip is a great way
to stretch out a budget. Try offsetting the
cost by gathering a group of friends to
share the price of gas and alternate driving. There are many places to visit (such
as national parks, theme parks, friends/
family) so plan ahead with the group and
make sure to have correct directions and
factor in expenses beforehand so it can be
a worry-free adventure. For accommodations along the trip, be sure to research
inexpensive hotels and book reservations
ahead of time or have an alternative plan
to stay with family or friends along the
way, With enough people, splitting a hotel
room cost will not end u p too expensive.
To find inexpensive accommodations,
Travelocity and Expédia are good sources
that are easy to navigate and continually
advertise special deals. On Travelocity.
com there are hotel rates for as low as
$32 per night in the Reno-Tahoe area.
If a travel destination is too far away or
would be too time consuming for a road
trip, many travel packages are available
that bundle hotel costs and airline, tickets. To travel to a "hot spot" such as Las
Vegas, Travelocity offers a $226 hotel +
flight package for each person. Travelocity and Expedia offer several other moderately priced packages to other destinations, such as Miami, Florida ($454 per
person including airfare and hotel).
2) Service Projects
Another option is to forgo the traditional summer vacation and partake in an
alternative summer breaks—volunteering
efforts to help charities and relief organizations. This is becoming more popular around college campuses and even
high schools. There are many activities
to choose: building houses (Habitat for
Humanity), clearing debris from stormaffected areas, tutoring and teaching
younger children, working with hospital
patients, and teaching English to immigrants. For example, CSUSM's Alternative Spring Break in March 2007 helped
the aftereffects of Katrina in New Orleans.
To volunteer in the summer for Habitat
for Humanity, the costs can range f rom
$50 to $150 and the locations are scattered across the fifty states. Check their
summer listings to find a specific date,
region, and cost: http://www.habitat.org/
y outhprograms/suppdocs/colchalsummerbreak_sitelist.pdf
3) Camping
Another low-budget vacation is camp' ing. Camping is a great way to spend
time with friends, especially for those
who enjoy the outdoors. Remember that
renting a cabin can be less expensive with
more people. There are many locations
and activities to choose from depending
on one's interests. While San Marcos is in
a great location to access many beaches,
there are other regional spots to enjoy
other water activities.
Making a reservation at a state park can
be done ahead of time online (a nonrefundable $7.50). Depending on the
group's size and how far in advance
a reservation is made, South Carlsbad costs can range from
$45.00 to $225.00. South
Carlsbad does not feature
day-use facilities. One of
the five-most visited •Cali-
fornia state parks, San Onofre, in north
Oceanside, has alcohol restrictions, so be
sure to stay on top of rules that pertain
to each park. Another state park, Cardiff, actually does not have any camping facilities, but pets are allowed.
Close by to Cardiff is San Elijo
State Beach, which does feature tents and RV sites.
To get an idea of what to
expect from other camping locations, the California
State Park's website breaks
down camping fees: http://
www.parks.ca.gov/?page_id=23293
4) Cruise
Though it may not be as inexpensive as some of the previous options,
a cruise is still an affordable option.
Cruises can be a

Textbook buy backs
BY B ILLRHEIN
Pride Staff Writer
The semester is coming to a close, and
it is time f or students to contemplate
what to do with the books they spent so
much money on a few months ago. Some
books are valuable in cash or intrinsic
value and may be worth keeping. However, if students want to sell books and
get money back, there are a few options.
The first option is to use the CSUSM
bookstore Buy Back. According to the
store, they will be accepting books starting May 7 in stationed tents in Founder's plaza. The University Store and Buy
Back Tents will be open until 7 p.m.
on every weekday except Friday, when
they will close at 3 p.m. The process is
simple: students can b ring back their
used textbooks where representatives of
the bookstore will examine them. They
will also scan the barcode to determine
if the book is usable next year, or if the
edition is out of date. If a student agrees
on a transaction, they will get a predetermined amount of money back for each
book, and the store can resell the book
next semester. This s ervice will r un
through finals week.
Other options lie online. Websites
such as www.booksvalue.com and www.
ecampus.com o ffer a similar service
as the bookstore. Students can browse
the site and see how much they can get
back for a copy of their book. If a student agrees on the price, he or she contacts the site, mails the book to them,
and gets money back. These sites then
sell the books to others on their site as
well as other websites, such as www.
half.com.
The previously mentioned www.half.
com is another place to get c^sh for
books, but it requires patience. This
site is a branch of www.ebay.com, but
does not require the auctioning process. Students and other Internet users
can list DVDs, CDs, and books they
wish to sell. Unlike the other options,
the seller can name his or her own
price. However, that also means waiting for someone to purchase it. A fter
a person makes a sale, www.half.com
will deposit the money into an account,
t aking a small fee for their service.
Therefore, if students do not want to
hang on to b ulky or unpractical books,
quickly. But once again, with more
people, cabins can fit up to four people, so
the cost of a small cabin can be split up.
Travelocity and Expedia offer many special cruise packages as well as cruise
companies. Expedia.com advertises Carnival cruise packages to Mexico for rates as
low as $189. At Travelocity, for a four-night, roundtrip cruise starting in Los
Angeles and traveling to
Baja California, Mexico,
and other California destinations, it can cost $209 for an
inside cabin and $609 for a suite.
Remember to have a passport ready in
advance if a travel destination involves
a foreign country. Travel agencies can
be more helpful for a more customized
approach to planning a cruise.
There are many interesting and f un
activities to take part in during summer
vacation — even under a budget! With the
ideas suggested above, there is still a lot
of room to make a vacation creative and
personable for a memorable
summer!
What to do with
unwanted textbooks
there are many options to sell them.
There are resources on campus and
online to make some money back, either
for books next year or for the festivities
summer has to offer.
In order to receive Campus Emergency Alerts you must
self register into the system!)
To further strengthen campus emergency preparedness Gal State
San Marcos has implemented a mass notification system to
communicate with the campus community during times of
emergency; This system allows students, faculty and staff to
determine how they would like to be notified if the campus should
experience an emergency
Choices include one or more of the following:
• SMS text message (standard text messaging fees apply)
* Cell phone

Baseball's streak ends
Despite their nine-game win streak coming
to an end, the Cougars remain competitive
BY TIM MOORE
Pride Staff Writer
April 22,2008 - CSUSM Baseball kicked
off a busy week of play with a tough loss last
Tuesday against Biola.
The Cougars jumped out to an early onerun lead in the bottom of the second inning
on a Tristan Gale solo home run. Biola got the
run back in the top of the third, and went on
to tack on two in the top of the fifth and one
in the top of the seventh. The Cougars closed
the gap to one after scoring two runs in the
bottom of the seventh on Jackson Chapelone
and Dane Ponciano solo home runs. Biola
added an insurance run in the top of the ninth
and closed the door on the Cougars in the
bottom half to take the win.
Despite receiving their first loss in nine
games on Tuesday, the Cougars continued
their winning ways of late as they faced Cal
State San Bernardino on Friday, taking a
close one by a score of 5-4. The Cougars got
on the board first, scoring on a Terry Moritz
RBI single in the top of the third. San Bernardino countered with a run in the bottom
of the third, and again in the fourth. The
Cougars did their damage in the top of the
sixth inning, scoring four runs on two hits
and two San Bernardino errors. San Bernardino tried their hand at a comeback in the
bottom of the eighth, cutting the deficit to
one. However, a solid defensive effort by the
Cougars kept the lead safe en route to the
win.
The Cougars again saw Cal State San Bernardino on Saturday, this time at home for
a doubleheader that resulted in a split. The
Cougars combated a three-run top of the first
with a run in the bottom of thefirst,and four
more in the bottom of the fourth. The game
remained quiet from there on out thanks to
strong pitching and defense for the Cougars.
The Cougars could not, however carry
over the momentum into the second game of
the doubleheader. Despite coming out to an
early 4-2 lead, the Cougars could not hold on,
losing by a score of 13-7.
The Cougars' record improves to 21-16-1
on the season as they head into theirfinalregular-season game Wednesday at San Diego
Christian at 3:00 p.m.

laughing—each story was better
than the one before. Tucker
makes friends and enemies wherever he goes. This book does,
however, demonstrate the truth
of the effects of alcohol and how
sometimes people tend to take
advantage of others. But if you're
looking for interesting stories,
each one like some legendary
college party complete with alcohol induced blackouts, you're in
for a treat.
This book is like taking the
most bizarre stories from every
scoundrel and rogue you know,
and multiplying them exponentially. Each one is more than
just risqué encounters and pan-
demonium. Rather, they are the
true encounters of Tucker Max.
During each of his crazy nights,
Tucker takes a voice recorder
with him to help him document
the nights that most individuals
would be too drunk to remember.
Some think that Tucker's
actions are too ruthless—I found
it them an escape from the reality of school. "I Hope They Serve

help alleviate the stress of finals

a box of tissues and indulge in

Street Kings
An action-filled hi
BY LANCE CARTELLI
Pride Staff Writer
"Street Kings" is Director
David Ayers's second followup to "Training Day." "Street
Kings" is a throwback cop
thriller that is highlighted by
a great story and solid acting
from Keanu Reeves and company. Yes, Keanu Reeves.
Tom Ludlow (Keanu Reeves), a
veteran LAPD detective, works
in the Special Vice Squad Unit
in Los Angeles. Ludlow has
been suffering from depression
since his wife died. On top of
that, his former partner, Detective Terrance Washington
(Terry Crews) was murdered
by two gang members. Ludlow
goes on a wild and reckless pursuit through the mean streets of
Los Angeles to track down the
killers and get justice for Washington. Captain Jack Wander
(Forest Whitaker) is Ludlow's
supervisor who must keep
him from going over the
edge and out of the cross hairs
of Internal Affairs Captain
James Biggs (Hugh Laurie).
"Street Kings" starts off fast and
never slows down. Within the
first ten minutes, viewers are able
to see that Detective Ludlow is a
highly skilled cop. The movie
moves so quickly that no ones
knows who is the good or bad
cop, and by the end viewers are
surprised with the thrilling twist
of who is really good and bad.
The only aspect that outweighs
the acting of Reeves, Whitaker,
and Laurie, is the writing. This
movie may not have the most
action, but the fast-paced story
keeps viewers on the edge of
their seats up until the action
packed ending that will leave
the audience saying "wow."
Despite what the critics say, this
movie is a great cop thriller and
is Reeves's best work since "The
Matrix."

Land Shark Lager
BY JONATHAN E. THOMPSON
Pride Staff Writer
Margaritaville Brewing Company brews Land Shark Lager in
Jacksonville, Florida. Jimmy Buffett owns Buffet's Margaritaville
Holding LLC, the parent company
of the brewery. Originally, the
brewery produced the lager solely
for Margaritaville Restaurants. The lager's
popularity grew and the brewery decided
to sell the product nationwide in retail outlets. There are currently eight restaurants
in the United States. The closest restaurants to CSUSM are located in Las Vegas,
Nevada, and Glendale, Arizona. The
remaining restaurants are located near
Florida with the exception of one restaurant in Cancun, Mexico.
The cardboard pack- ^ ^
a ging
holds
12-fluid ounce clear glass
bottles. The six-pack retails for $7.29 at
BevMo. A soft yellow and navy blue comprise the majority of the coloring used on
the container. A simple beach scene with
a large shark fin planted firmly on land
captures center stage. The bottles contain
the same imaging and labeling. Bronze,
yellow, and navy blue fill in the artwork
on the lager 's bottle cap consisting of the
lager's logo. The lager has an alcohol by
volume of 4.7%, slightly lower than average beers.
Land Shark pours easily, generating
a quarter inch thick head that remains
for the majority of consumption. The
lager radiates a light golden hue similar to champagne. It emits a faint biscuit infused aroma, and enters the mouth
calmly like small, gentle waves at high
noon beachside. A slight peak of tastes
occurs immediately then disappears as
the lager strolls beyond.
Given the soothing nature of the brew,
it should pair well with BBQ orientedL
events and food. Of course* Jimmy Buffett's 1985 hit song "Margaritaville" is a
nice addition during consumption. Furthermore, the lager deserves a more creative styled glass than regular lagers. The
craziness associated with the ending of a
spring semester indicates one thing: the
close proximity of summer where flipflops and bottle tops relax and calm the
Cougar.
Surprise 2, for example, valued at $7.95
includes f ried rice or steamed rice,
Chicken Panang Curry (spicy), garden
salad with Thai cream dressing, f ried
t ofu and a soda.
To cap off your night, a definite must is
the banana rolls dessert. Just picture this
for a second: bananas deep f ried in egg
roll skins, served with chocolate syrup
and whipped cream for the low price of
$3.25. Sounds heavenly, right? The price
is worth the risk and makes it that much
easier to order seconds if need be.
The only downside to the Siam experience is that you may find yourself tipping 50% of the bill because you are that
satisfied—it has been done. The service
is friendly and accommodating and the
food speaks for itself—figuratively I
hope, but I must admit, I have not yet
tried the duck.
Siam Surprise is located at Overland
Center, 26490 Ynez Road, Suite B in
Temecula. For more menu options, map

�Justin
Nozuka...
Man Crush?
BY TOM COCKING
Pride Staff Writer
Every night before I go to
bed, I sit on the couch in the
living room and go back and
f orth between MTV, VH1, and
Fuse, watching music videos.
It is late night so there are usually some odd videos on that
either make me feel uncomfortable or like I am back in
the 1960's. But on this special night while channel s urfing, one of the most b eautiful
sounds I had ever heard came
f rom V Hi's Nocturnal State, a
late night music program that
plays up-and-coming artists.
I listened and watched the
music video intently because
the person singing had one of
the most melodic and calming voices I had ever heard. I
waited until the end to see who
it was and the ending credits
read "Justin Nozuka - A fter
Tonight." I had heard Justin
Nozuka before but couldn't
purchase his CD off iTunes
because he did not sell it in
the U.S. So I went to my room
and got my laptop, searched
for him on iTunes and by the
grace of God, his CD had
j ust been released in the U.S.
Instantly I purchased h is CD
titled "Holly" and listened to
every song. I have not stopped
listening to his CD since.
He has a Jason Mraz-like
tone but hits notes I did not
know men could hit. Justin is
only 19 years old, but sings
of things beyond the average teenager's wisdom. With
songs like my favorite "Save
Him," Nozuka sings of a
woman who was abused by
both her father and b oyfriend.
His chilling vocals make you
listen to every word he says.
His more upbeat songs like
"After Tonight" have catchy
choruses that instantly make
you happy. It is safe to say I
have developed a "man crush"
on Justin Nozuka. Sadly, he
has only played a few shows
in the United States, such as
the South By Southwest Music
Festival in Austin, Texas.
Nozuka was born in New York
then moved to Toronto and
has lived there since. But due
to his growing popularity, he
is beginning to p erform more
in the States, primarily on the
east coast.
With fame coming to him at
such a tender age, I can only
imagine what great things he
will be doing in the f uture.

Historic power outage affects millions
Jenna Jauregui
Co-Editor-in-Chief
A hush fell over Cal State San
Marcos last Thursday as every
air conditioner, fluorescent light,
and computer abruptly stopped
working. The campus went dark
around 3:30 p.m. when a highvoltage power line between Arizona and Southern California
failed, leaving 1.4 million San
Diego Gas and Electric customers suddenly without power.
T he unprecedented outage affected millions o f people from
Mexico to Orange County to parts
o f Arizona. All electricity users,
including stores, gas stations,
schools, offices and residences
were completely without power.
Traffic gridlocked throughout the
county as people tried to navigate
the lightless intersections. Due to
the initial mystery behind the outage_, the high volume o f commut-
ers and crippled safety resources,
county authorities declared the
situation a local emergency.
Because the sudden loss o f
p ower affected such a massive
area and occurred just before the
lOth anniversary o f 9/11, many
people were afraid the outage
may have been a result o f another terrorist attack. S DG&E
confirmed otherwise in a press
statement released on Friday.
" The p ower outage began with
a major transmission outage in
western Arizona that caused a loss
o f power to southern California.
Shortly afterward, the S an Onofre
Generating Station went o ff line.
As a resuJt, SDG&E did not have
adequate resources on its system
to keep power on across its service
territory," SDG&E officials said.
S DG&E announced at about
3:30 a.m. Friday morning that
power had been restored to many
o f its customers. C SUSM and San

still investigating the reasons behind the widespread power loss.

Game3
The Cal State San Marcos women's soccer team is no stranger to
amazing success on the field.
Last year, the team ended its
regular season with a 10-2-5 record. Five players were selected
to play for the A.I.I. Women's
Soccer All-Conference Team
with head coach, Ron Pulvers,
named Coach o f the Year. The
new season started on a high note
as the NAIA announced in early
September that the lady Cougars were ranked 15th in the nation. Game after game, the team
proved what CSUSM women's
soccer is all about..
Again, playing another game
only three days later, the lady
Cougars faced off in Fresno
against Fresno Pacific. At first,
the game was a toss up with both
teams evenly matched. At the
start o f the second half, the Cougars came off the bench hungry
for a goal to keep their undefeated streak alive. Only minutes into
the second half, freshman Courtney Kay scored 1he games only
goal after Fresno's keeper lost the
ball during a free kick from just
outside the box by Shannon Cox.
Kay's goal was icing on the cake
as she celebrated her birthday and
kept the Cougars at a solid 3-0
start.

The season kicked off with
an impressive 4-0 win verses
Point Park. Last season's leading
scorer, senior Lauren Johnson,
opened the 2011-2012 season just
sixteen minutes into the game
with a goal o ff a c omer kick. The
Cougars managed to score three
o f its four goals before the end o f
the first half.
Game2
Playing only two days later, the
women's soccer team managed to
scrape by with a 1-0 win versus
Biola. The Cougars were outshooting Biola 14-8 but were not
able to convert until midfielder
Arielle Cohen took a free kick in
the fifty-fifth minute o f the game.

an interesting t urn for the Cougar's undefeated season when
both teams walked away with a

When The CSUSM women's
volleyball players hit the courts
for practice in !-lunter gymnasium,
the pride o f representing San Marcos will be the team's main drive
to push them through all o f the
hard work in its inaugural season.
Cal State San Marcos announced last fall that the athletic
department would be adding
women's volleyball to the university's growing list o f sports offerings. The team was slowly starting to commit players and a coach
before the start o f the fall season.
The young team, made up o f ten
freshmen, one sophomore, and
five juniors, will play all home
games at the Escondido High
School gyni until a larger Gymnasium can be built on campus.
" It is going to be a little hard
to play home games off campus, but it's also amazing to
think that Escondido supports us
enough to let us use their gym,"
freshman Tayler Gomez said.
One player does admit that
being a part o f a first-year team
and juggling class work does
occasionally come with some
pressure. "Becaus~ student athletes are such a small group on
campus, we really want to prove
that we can represent both the
student athletes and the school,"
sophomore Rachel Quam said.
Quam also reflected that even
though they are athletes, "school
work comes first. We truly
are students before athletes."
As their season enters week
four, the players are starting
to settle in on campus and find
their niche on the team. "We
have been focusing a lot on
team building, and I think we
have finally meshed as a team,"
freshman K iki Atuatasi said.
The most memorable achievements for the team have been their
25-22, 25-22, 12-25 scores, A
couple o f highlights include a 2523, stunning win over the number-one ranked Fresno Pacific as
well as a win over the number
seven ranked Lewis-Clark State.
The CSUSM W6men's Volleyball
team currently holds a record o f
13-5 and is set to play their first
home game o f the season at Escondido High School today at
8 p.m. vs. San Diego Christan.

Through the team's tough
0-3 start, Cal State San Marcos
men's soccer haS been unable
to catch a break. That changed
in the second half o f Monday's
game at Westmont, when the
Cougars were able to take advantage o f two miscues by the home
team and win the match 4-2.
CSUSM improves to 1-3 on
the year with the much-needed
victory. Westmont drops to 0-4.
Playing their final game at the
Westmont Heritage Club Classic to~ament, Coach Ron Pulvers' Cougars came out looking
to make a statement, and did so
almost immediately. Just one
minute into the game, a shot by
Alex Rodriguez was stopped
by the Westmont keeper, but
Scott Rice was able to punch in
the rebound for his first .career
CSUSM goal and the first goal
o f the season for the Cougars.
Rice was not content with one,
however: I n the 15th minute, AllConference midfielder Jake Kai-
ser served in a dangerous ball from
30 yards out, connecting with Rice
who headed it past the keeper.
Up 2-0 at the 15-minute mark,
the Cougars were riding high but were quickly reminded that
nothing thus far this s~ason has
come easy. In the 22nd minute,
a foul call on the edge o f the box
gave Westmont a penalty kick,
which was converted to make it
2-1. Westmont would tie it in the
34th minute on a goal from Emmanuel Akyen, capitalizing on a
stretch o f play in which CSUSM
was frankly a bit lucky to escape from without being behind.
But the second half would belong to the Cougars. Adjusting
to the super-direct style o f play
that served Westmont so well
late in the first half, Coach Pulvers directed his team to start
pressuring the back line to shut
down the long passes that had
been hurting CSUSM. The adjustment worked brilliant, as
not only did the Cougars tilt the
run o f play back in their favor,
they pounced on two mistakes
by Westmont's inexperienced
defense to score a pair o f goals.
In the 61st minute, a lazy pass
back to the keeper was picked
off by a very alert Eric Lopez,
who buried his first goal as a
Cougar to put his side up 3-2.
Another first-time goal scorer,
Sullivan Tobin, would ice the
match in the 85th minute, intercepting a pass on the back line and
striking a wonderful shot into the
comer o f the net from 25 yards out
to put CSUSM up 4-2 and close
the door on the team's first win.
K iki Castro picked up the win
in net for CSUSM, making a couple key. saves when the match
was 2-2 to preserve the victory.

Ways to s ave t his s emester
Ashley Day
Co-Editor-in-Chief
With America's current stale
economy, rising Cal State tuition,
expensive parking and skyrocketing gas prices, students need
to save as much cash as possible
this semester. Here are tips on
ways to save on textbooks, one
o f the hardest hitting expenses o f
college life.
R ent y our textbooks
Websites such as Chegg.com
and ecampus.com allow students
to rent their textbooks for a lower
price than purchasing the textbook. Chegg.com's mission statement is to save students money
and keep the cost o f textbooks to
a minimum. Also, renting books
allows the student to pick the
timeframe they want to keep the
textbook. The less time the book
is kept, the less it costs.
A mazon.com
Amazon offers a cheap marketplace for buying and selling textbooks. College students may sign
up for Amazon Student, which the
website reads "free two-day shipping for six months with Amazon
Prime shipping benefits, as well
as exclusive offers via e-mail."
Amazon also allows students to
a e mo
sell back their textbooks at the
end o f the semester, by signing up
as an Amazori seller. Students can
gain back a portion o f the money
they used to purchase the book.
Interlibrary Loan
Many students do not know
about interlibrary loans. I f you
go to biblio.csusm.edu or library.
csusm.edu (they are the same
website), there is a link on the
right column to sign up for the
interlibrary loan service. Students
can sign up for the service for
free using their campus ID and
password, then librarians search
through the San Diego library circuit to find i f other libraries carry
the book you requested. This usually works for novels assigned for
class, and the book is shipped to
your house in approximately less
than a week.
Course Reserves
Ask your professor i f they put
any o f the required course materials on course reserve. I f they did,
you many go into the third floor
o f the library and check out the
textbook for two hours. Students
are not permitted to leave the library with the book, but you may
copy the pages using a print card
on any floor o f the library. This is
a great option i f your professor
only assigned· a couple pages or
chapters o f the book . .
Share with a
classmate/friend
Save money by
splitting the cost
o f the book with
a classmate or
friend. Most people are happy to
share textbooks
with other students, i f they
are strapped for
cash.
I f you need
assistance
in
getting any required
course
mateials, talk to
your professor in
office hours; most
o f the time, your
professor
can
help you devise a
way to get what
you need.

There are several services the
LGBTQA Pride Center offers to
C SUSM students. One is education and free testing for IDV. To~
day, Sept. 13, at noon, the Vista
Community Clinic will hold their
presentation about t he disease
and give tips o n prevention o f
spreading it. The clinic returns
on Thursday, Sept. 15, for free
screenings from 11 a.m. - 2 p.m.
Both events occur at the Pride
Center, Commons 201.
T hough scientists created many
medical breakthroughs over time,
disease and illness is a normal
part o f h uman life. While mv
(Human Immunodeficiency Virus) is not as widespread in the
United States as in other countries that are heavily affected,
there are a number o f new cases
in the country e very year. The
California for AIDS Research,
Education and Services (CARES)
reported in 2 009, S an Diego
County had confirmed 4008 cases, the third highest number o f
mv cases in the state. Los Angeles held the highest with 14,099
cases and S an Francisco followed
with 5,212 cases. With the help
o f educational talks and testing,
those nunibers can decrease in the
near future.
According to Keyatta P arker
and Gustavo Aguirre, health educators from the Vista Cqmmunity
Clinic, the t est is a simple and
non-invasive process. I t takes 2040 m.iDutes, a nd all information is
kept confidential. After filling_
out health forms., participating
students are given a kit with materials to swab the inside o f their
mouth. I t is a painless procedure
and is done in a private room inside the Pride Center. A fter thl(
waiting period, the administrator
hands· the student the results and
counseling and consultation are
available, i f the student needs
them.
" The goal is to normalize the [IDV] test,"
said Gustavo Aguirre.
A standard l llV test
involves drawing
blood and weeks o f
waiting for results.
Thanks to the program, more people
can be screened at
convenient locations
and times using the
painless oral swab test.
The program with
the Pride C enter first
started in March
2010. According

Fall semester at C al State San
Marcos signals a prime recruiting
period for Greek organizations as
new students look for ways to be
involved on campus. When deciding which fraternity o r sorority to
"rush," students should research
the history, requirements, and
standards o f e ach organization.
C SUSM recognizes three sororities (Alpha Pi Sigma, Alpha Chi
Om~ga, and Alpha X i Delta), and
two fraternities (Zeta Beta Tau and
S igma Alpha Epsilon). According
to a 2 008 memo from Student L ife
and Leadership Director. Dilcie
Perez, the fraternity Tau Kappa
Epsilon ( 'fKE) is no longer recognized on the CSUSM campus.
Alpha P i Sigma (.AIU:) is a
Latina based sorority. Its website, alphapisigma.org, states
its mission is " to unite and support women to advance academically ai:J.d professionally."
Alpha Chi O mega (AXO) is a
sorority dedicated to developing
" smart, compassionate, makea-difference women," according to alphachiomega.org. This
sorority makes a strong ·commitment to "academics, community service and leadership."
Alpha X i D elta (A3~) is a sorority with a vision: "inspiring
women to realize their potential." Its website, alphaxidelta.
org, states the organization's
commitment to developing its
members strengths and talents
within the sorority's sisterhood.
Zeta Beta Tau ( ZBn is " the
n ation's first Jewish fraternity," according to zbt.org. I t
is " open to all men o f good
character" and seeks to help its
members develop "intellectual
awareness, social responsibility, integrity and brotherly love."
Sigma Alpha Epsilon (~AE)
is a fraternity that touts the message " be true." Its website, sae.
net, states that the organization helps its members "fulfill
their educational aspirations and
goals," a nd promotes· programs
that teach "leadership, scholarship, and personal development."
Students can discover many
opportunities by joining a G reek
organization. C SUSM is proud to
host these fraternities and sorority chapters, but students must
remember to always be safe and
legal when representing their organization. H students have questions o r concerns regarding any
campus organization's activities,
they should contact Student Life
and Leadership (csusm.edu!sll).

I 'm a third year history major at California State University San
Marcos. This is my second year with the Pride. I 'm a native San
Diegan, hence the Chargers are my favorite football team. My
indulgences are drinking tons o f coffee, getting my nails done,
fashion and anything French. I love the Victorian Era and Roarin' 20§ parts o f history. I look forward taking The Pride along in
a new direction this year and hope that more students, faculty and
staff enjoy and support our paper. Good luck on this semester!

I s ee heartbreak and heartache and yet I still linger for more.! crave
adventure, whether it be exploring a haunted forest at night or spending a day at
Disneyland. I 'm a thinker, a listener and a reader. I will get lost in a book; in the
me and definitely
pages o f someone else's mind. I have big dreams, bigger
bigger than any realist. Music speaks to me in a tone that no one else can. I can
give you all the advice in the world. but taking it, myself. is an obstacle I have
yet to overcome. I am fascinated by movieS and the way someone can literally
make their vision come to life astonishes me. I am a night owl and not a morning
person, but I love being awake early. I am a human IMDb and a contradiction.
More importantly: I write. Ernest Hemingway once said, "There is nothing to writing. All you do is sit at
a typewriter and bleed." I bleed a lot. I 'm Melissa.

the paper. It features some o f the quirks o f university life using
my fictional characters. One o f my dreams is to own my euphonium. Feel free to google it if you do not know what it is.

Most Americans ·remember
exactly where they were when
the towers fell in New York 10
years ago. The 9/11 attacks on
the World Trade Center in 2001
became the Pearl Harbor o f the
millennia! g eneration- America
watched and listened in shock
as the news coverage revealed
the devastation and horror.
On Sept. 12,2011, the
United States declared war, targeting the Afghanistan-based leader
group,
Osama Bin Laden.
Oct. 8, 2001 marked the
beginning o f President
Bush's "War on Terror."
A generation o f fresh veterans was born from this decision as young people saw
an opportunity to serve their
t ry ,
" I saw a need for medics,"
Navy Corpsman Mark Mallare,
a Cal State San Marcos student
veteran and kinesiology major,
said. "There were many opportunities in medicine after 9/11.
There were so many trauma patients that needed to be cared for."
Another opportunity that appealed to America's new military recruits was the new GI
Bill, which was revised after the
9/11 disaster to include more
benefits for those who serve.
Signed into law in July o f 2008,
the Post-9/11 GI Bill, or GI Bill
2.0, created a "new robust education benefits program rivaling
the WWII era GI Bill o f Rights,"
according to an overview o f the
bill at military.com/education.
The bill's benefits apply to "servicemembers who have served
on active duty for 90 or more
days since Sept. 10, 200 l ," and
are "tiered based on the number
o f days served on active duty."
Several revisions to this bill
came into effect in August 2011.
revisions include
full coverage o f
tuition and
public schools, including gradu~
ate training. I n addition, Students
may be reimbursed for national
exams such as the SAT, as well as
tests for licensing and certification. Some unfortunate changes
include the end o f " preak pay,"
which means students will not
receive monthly payments for
housing or other needs during semester breaks in the school term.
The Veterans Center at CSUSM
(c susm . edu/outreach/VeteransServices) exists to help student
veterans understand how to obtain these benefits as well as offer
a safe and friendly environment
that promotes camaraderie between military branches. Mallare,
who works in the Veterans Center, said he wanted to help people
in the same way people helped
him when he started at CSUSM.
"We give students peace o f
.mind and assist students with
their paperwork," he said. The
center offers computers, a friendly staff, and a television for students who just want to unwind
and hang out. "We are also looking to start a lending library t()
help students with their textbook
needs," Amber Bouge, who also
works in the Veterans Center, said.

F reedom o f t he p ress
I mportance o f m edia t ransparecy p ost 9 -11
As I sat down to write this article, I expected to offer commentary on the American media's
coverage o f the events o f 9/11.
The vast and varied ways that
television, film and print journalism told the story o f the attacks
made for extremely compelling
capsules o f information that still
have relevance all o f 10 years
later.
Within that commentary, I expected to be critical o f the media;
I wanted to explain why revealing the president's location on
9/11 and airing footage o f people
jumping out o f the World Trade
Center buildings was beyond the
responsibility o f media.
The more I considered the
subject, however, I uncovered a
different angle to this type o f response (which is rather common
among those who e xpress
an opinion, it seems). W h i 1e
many sought to criticize
the media for their ~- c o m prehensive c-overage
o f the
day's events, others
understood the
i ntent
p ortreal-
importance within a free society.
This concept o f "media transparency" is an irrefutable asset
to the American public. Should
the media cover up events in order to maintain an advanced state
o f public order or government
secrecy, the concept o f freedom
would cease to exist as fast as
true journalism would. Media, as
a service to the public, preserves
transparency so it may preserve
freedom.
All media outlets, from the
largest metropolitan newspaper
to the local dailies, have got toreport the whole truth. For the years
that I have been with The Pride,
I have experienced the good, the
bad and the ugly that comes with
covering events that happen on
campus. True journalism seeks
the whole story and reveals it accurately and ethically.
Journalists often feel confused
or threatened by the concept of
revealing sensitive or controversial information, but those in the
business o f reporting truth must
do just that.
As the editor of the Opinion
section, I encourage the students,
staff, faculty and community to
report truths by writing Letters
to the Editor ad-
readers
deem
important and
worthy o f exploration. Our
small staff o f

We all know what it's like to be
i n college with an empty wallet
after paying for books that cost
more than a car payment, tuition
that grows every time we check
our email and non-stop visits to
Chipotle and Chick-fil-A. So,
having fun somewhere without
having to ask mom and dad for
money is an offer no one can resist.
For those who rely on the
Sprinter to get from point A to
B; adventures in San Marcos
are hardly far. For some outdoorsy adventures, taking a stroll
through Jack's Pond located at
986 La Moree Road is a great
place to do homework, relax
and soak in the rays. The peaceful scenery and the sounds o f
nature can offer a place to kick
back and enjoy life or finish up
lab reports and next week's essay .
For those who are not familiar with ·the area, Balboa Park is
perfect way to get a taste o f true
southern California culture. The
tourist attraction offers beautiful
scenery to enjoy throughout the
day and it's perfect for snapping
photos for memories to frame
forever. Carousels, mini railroads
and museums galore are some o f
the attractions visitors are able
to choose from. The park gives
you the opportunity to have fun
exploring trails without burning
a hole in your wallet. Balboa is
perfect destination, whether it be
on a romantic night out or a day
with your family. Located just
40 minutes from CSU San Marcos, Balboa Park is a great place
to get away for the day and relax
while experiencing the beauty that San Diego has to offer.
