Considering the results of the recent Associated Students Inc. (ASI) elections, a lot would have to answer "no." Only 692 students bothered to vote in the two-day election April 15-16. That's about 15 p ercent of t he university's student population. But, compared to the other CSU campuses, where turnout in such elections averages 8-10 percent, 15 percent may not be all that bad. But, in the eyes of many on campus, it still leaves room for improvement. "I was pretty proud that we got 15 percent, but I would like to see 4050 percent turnout in the future," said ASI Executive Director Darlene Willis. Added current ASI President Joe Faltaous: "I think there are several layers of apathy on campus. ASI can help bring down those layers." ASI, which will control a $600,000 budget next year, is one of the few entities on campus that has officers elected solely by students. In fact, the students employ the ASI, since $20 out of every student's tuition goes directly to the organization. But some students may not realize that. In fact, there was a dearth of candidates for the ASI board. Of the 18 seats at stake in the election, only four were actually contested on the OEIections, page 3 1998 fe^ field faculty anilMiMiSSS^^ ( p j N a involvement T RACK is viewed by n d £ r ^^S' S B Y JENIFER JAFFE • tmdreds of ^ d e n t s who w a n ^ I decided ,via the democratic p roms, to dp it t h e n ^ v ^ .i I ;'Coiistriictioiiofa$lmiffionti^ • HsJI wiH b ^ta as a result of a t^ceMy passed W ^sm^mar^mg I student fees: CSUSM President Alexander Oom&lez said the track should be completed by next yrnr, and added* "It fethe beginning of the next stage ofdevelppjrpeiit for thJs eampiss.

OEnrollment, page 4 CSUSM offers first computer scholarships As a result of the $2.26 million bequest of Leonard Evers, CSUSM established the Evers Computer Scholarship fund. Beginning this fall, each year 40 low-income freshman will each get a laptop computer as long as they are enrolled at CSUSM. "Computers are an integral part of education, business, and our society. At CSUSM, computers are essential for doing research, creating artwork, analyzing information, and communicating with other students and professors. It's virtually impossible to get a quality education without having access to computers and other information technology," Paul Phillips, director of financial aid, explained. "This program helps ensure that lowincome students at CSUSM have OScholarships, page 5 Listen up Radioheads latest^ reviewed - �ESL program prepares foreign students for new challenges B Y SCOTT BASS They come from Brazil, Turkey and Taiwan; the United Arab Emirates, Japan and Korea. A United Nations delegation? No, just some of the nations represented in CSUSM's English as a Second Language program, which is directed on c ampus by the American Language and Cultural Institutes (ALCI). The c urriculum consists of intensive academic preparation courses for students who come to the United States from other nations to continue their education. ESL students are rarely true begin-: ners in English. "We do get some students who are fairly low level English speakers/' admitted Cheryl Wecksler, director of the ALCI. "Most have studied English in their own country." Students who take the courses exit the program with a certificate in hand and the ability to continue their education in the United States. The ESL program builds upon each s tudent's individual skills, said Wecksler, adding, "When a student comes in we test them. We place them, depending on their test results, at varying levels." The ESL program gives the students the academic tools necessary to reach their scholastic goals in this country, she said. "Some may need a semester. Others may need a full year," she added. The program keeps academics as its main focus. "We teach students how to do academic writing, how to do research, how to write research papers and listening and notetaking skills," said Wecksler. "We make sure they have the skills necessary to survive academically here in the U.S. We teach them how to succeed in an American university." Three alumni of CSUSM's ESL program will graduate from the university this spring. "Others who have gone through the program will be entering CSUSM as freshman next semester," said Wecksler. "We ajso have alumni who went on to UCSD and Berkeley." Aside from academic preparation, ALCI offers short-term programs in ESL. Among these is a language and culture program that centers on personal communication. "The program focuses on speaking and listening," said Wecksler," straight-forward communication skills r ather t han academic skills." At 10 a.m. on May 13,15 ESL students will receive their certificates from ALCI in Commons 207. on Sunday, June 7th.

For their fundraisers, that is. From June 21-30, approximately 25 UB students will be heading to the Nation's Capital to participate in the '98 "Summer Education College Tour." The students will be holding a 5 0/ 50 raffle and candy sale on campus to help pay for the trip. "The students are visiting some of the country's historical landmarks and colleges," said UB programmer Shelly Anguiano, "including Howard and Georgetown Universities, the White House, the Holocaust Museum and many others." During the next several weeks, candy will be for sale at the UB Office (Craven 5201) along with the raffle tickets. The raffle prize is half of the money raised through ticket sales. "So, if we sell $2,000 in tickets, whoever holds the winning ticket will get $1,000," said Anguiano. UB is a college preparation course for low-income, first-generation college students in North County. Students, who are recruited at eighth grade, gain entry to a number of helpful programs aimed at ensuring academic success. Some of the offerings include tutorials that are offered at the high school level and "College Saturdays" where the high schoolers receive college-type instruction on CSUSM's campus. Students also go on field trips and college campus tours. Currently, UB offers services to eight area high schools. "We follow the students from eight grade to high school," says Anguiano, "Once the students become juniors in high school, we help them apply to colleges, for scholarships and other financial aid." To help the UB students raise money for their trip, or for more information, call Anguiano at (760) 750-4885. �B Page 3 | SSMSSm Diverse hiring: a blessing or a curse? B Y D E B B I E H ENKE What some call a commitment to diversity, others see as reverse discrimination. The current CSUSM administration is committed to building a diverse faculty. Yet some on campus believe the methods used by the university to recruit and hire faculty members are unfair and possibly illegal. Two faculty members, speaking only oh the condition of anonymity, said too much time is spent seeking minority candidates with no interest in teaching at CSUSM. "This is sensitive, politically incorrect stuff," said one. "The truth would ruffle way too many feathers." One said the university's current hiring process is "an unnecessary bureaucracy, driven by diversity," Both said that in many cases salary demands of prospective hires can seldom be met, and that Searches are sometimes canceled in violation of Proposition 209 simply because a candidate may not be an ethnic or racial minority. Both said the CSUSM's Department of Institutional Diversity and Equal Opportunity (IDEO) plays far too heavy a role in university recruiting. But Joe Cordero, IDEO director, denied it, adding that state universities are still able to target minorities for recruitment despite Proposition 209, which ended affirmative action in state hiring and education. They cannot, however, show preference based on race or gender, he stressed. The name of Cordero's office was changed from the Department of Affirmative Action after Prop. 209 was approved by state voters. The IDEO, Cordero said, recruits minorities in three ways: advertising in educational journals specifically aimed at minorities; attending academic conferences also specific to minority groups; and contacting possible candidates directly. But one of the CSUSM faculty members interviewed characterized the IDEO's efforts as an "extravagant misallocation of very scarce university resources," and added that placing ads in journals aimed at minorities is an expense the university cannot afford. Both said ads in "The Chronicle of Higher Education," a widely circulated standard for academia, would reach all qualified candidates, including minori- date is not a minority. "Cordero's office closely monitors the entire process, yet will cancel a search just before a job offer is made," said one. "This very heavy hand in the faculty recruiting process is to assure minority candidates receive priority consideration ... in direct violation of Proposition 209." Cordero said his department is not responsible for canceling a search, only making recommendations. But, he added, if his department feels the pool of candidates is not diverse, and the person under consideration is mediocre, a search might be ended. "Nobody wants to hire for the sake of hiring," Cordero said. "We agonize over this." Yet he admitted his office is stricter with departments who he says "do not have a good track record" for minority hiring. One faculty source questioned whether the IDEO is qualified to decide if an applicant is mediocre, adding, "Only the minority candidates are interviewed by Cordero. So how can he judge if another candidate is mediocre?" In addition, the two faculty sources said, not many minority candidates are available in a number of academic fields, and those who are available are in high demand by other universities, which pay more and hire faster. ties. Both also said they opposed attending conferences for specific ethnic or gender groups, because it meant spending money on travel only to speak to a small number of candidates. Attending conferences which are held in every academic discipline, they added, was a better way to meet all qualified candidates. The university also reaches out to minorities by contacting people listed in the "Minority & Women Doctoral Directory," they said. These lists are given by IDEO to each faculty search committee. The problem with this* according to both faculty members, is that more than half of the people listed already have teaching positions and no interest in coming to CSUSM. Cordero disagreed, saying every effort must be made to reach out to minorities "because of the university's commitment to diversity," and added that the IDEO does not want to hinder a search team's efforts. "If a department believes' bureaucratic restrictions are causing delays, then we need to know and reevaluate the process," he said. The two faculty sources insisted that searches are canceled because a candi- Elections! att^iicUIX Gonzalez pointed to several other if cdritfttiif^ w m p age 1 projects now hi the works that also may tory for clubs to give students more reason to stay on future, They include;; %: | Fallot* In eight Jaces> there was only ,a | " tlipiy^'-fa^ to ask: ^What can we do M 'Sourt between t he new clubs singly ^apdidate.

"The students who attend come f rom a variety of motivations and places," he says. "Some are, or hope to be, tutors or peer academic advisors. "Many others come just because they want to have good people skills and may pursue a career in the "helping professions.' All students are welcome." The two-day^eries of seminar workshops is designed to enlarge students' capabilities in communication skills, assertiveness, multicultural issues in helping others, substance abuse, crisis intervention, campus resources and conflict resolution, in addition to peer counseling. "This training raises the compassion level of the campus community," says Kreisler. A third day of advanced training, focused on self-development and increased awareness of differences among people, is available to students who have previously completed the two-day program. For more information, or to sign-up, go to the CAPS office (5310 Craven Hall) or call 750-4910. CAPS asks that students register in advance. "The first year, there were more than 50 students, and last year more t han 70," says Kreisler. This year, CAPS is able to offer this training, from 8:30 a.m. to 4 p.m. on May 26-27, at no cost to students. The third day of additional training is May "I think I need to go see my counselor." Almost eveiy college student has uttered this phrase at one time or another. Quite likely, the mere mention of the word "counselor" sends thoughts of registration deadlines, course numbers and frenzied signature-hunts. But access to a counselor is only one venue of such help available at CSUSM. Counseling & Psychological Services (CAPS) offers a variety of services to students at no cost. It is geared to promote wellness, mental health and academic success in the CSUSM community. "In general, our goal is to improve the health of the CSUSM community as much as possible toward successful student development and growth," says Dy. Fritz Kreisler, who heads the office. To accomplish this, CAPS offers individual personal counseling and brief therapy to assist students with things like study challenges, problematic relationships and stress. "Nearly 10 percent of the student body uses CAPS in this way each year," says Kreisler. Sometimes, counselors find themselves helping students through depression, severe anxiety or p osttraumatic s tress symptoms. "Student Health Services employs two part-time psychiatrists to ensure students get total care," Kreisler says. On campus, CAPS sometimes mediates conversations between a student 28. and professor, or helps resolve workStudents should bring their own place problems in a campus office. lunches, but refreshments will be served Kreisler points to the upcoming May in the morning. Enrollment: "These admissions figures demonstrate the troubling impact Proposition 209 has, and will continue to have, on California's future," said Lt. Governor Davis. "Clearly, Prop. 209's legacy will result in fewer African Americans and Latinos who will be educated to contribute to their communities in a meaningful way." According to statistics released by officials at both UC Berkeley and UCLA, the number of Latinos admitted declined by more than 56 percent and 33 percent, respectively. Similarly the number of African Americans admitted declined by more than 64 percent at UC Berkeley and 42 percent at UCLA. "Proposition 209 is the law of the land and tile UC system must abide by the voters' decision in 1996," added Davis. "However, we must be diligent in improving California's K-12 system in order to make students from those continued from page 1 schools that have historically not been competitive, more competitive in the future. We must also be creative in rethinking UC's admissions policy to allow f or a b etter r epresentation of California's population." Lt. Governor Davis is a proponent of a proposal before the UC Regents that calls for automatically admitting to the UC afixedpercentage of graduating seniors from each high school in California to tile UC system. "It is time for the UC Regents to seriously consider adopting the top-students' proposal as a means to offset the dramatic impact of Prop. 209," Davis concluded. "Thefirststep is raising the b& on academic achievement in California's high schools. This will improve academic performance among all high-schoolers and, at the same time, ensure that no segment of California's diverse communities is shut out of the UC." , & « , , ia ^ b f i t e Unplanned P regnancy?

Four years later, several students launched an u nsuccessful legal challenge of t he resulting $47 per semester fee increase. Today, the SDSU facility, officially called Cox Arena at Aztec Bowl, hosts five gymnasiums, a workout room, weight-training room, locker room with saunas and a rockclimbing wall. The idea for the CSUSM project began approximately two years ago with a $50,000 donationfroma local builder who asked to r emain anonymous, Lynch said. That money paid for the field's design and soil-testing costs. But plans to build the state-of-the-art track and soccer field stalled after only about $25,000 was raisedfromvarious other donors, she said. Gonzalez rekindled the plans when he proposed t hat s tudents back the development of the facility through a fee increase referendum. The original donor then pledged an additional $150,000 for the project if it won student approval. According to a voter information flier distributed by the university, the donor will "assist the University to initiate the development of the facility by early summer," which Gonzalez explained meant helping the university to secure financing for the project. Because academic buildings have first priority for state funds, money to build an athletic facility would have to come from s tudent and donor s upport, according to the flier. The referendum met limited opposition from students, with some comparing the issue as a battle between sports and scholastics. Though conceding she didn't vote on the issue, biology m ajor Robyn Rosenburg said she was concerned about CSUSM losing academic focus. "It's ridiculous to pay for a soccer field when we don't even have enough classes," she added. Students will pay the additional fee for seven to 10 years, after which they may vote to rescind it, or keep it to fund additional facilities and programs. ASI Secretary Erik Dawson warned that there probably will only be a small window of opportunity to abolish the fee once the track is paid off. "Students will have to remain constantly vigilant, otherwise they are going to get ripped off," he added. Though hot certain where funds would come from to maintain the field if students do vote the fee out a decade from now, Gonzalez said they would probably come f rom t he campus budget. Francine Martinez, vice president of Student Affairs, praised students for recognizing the need for the facility. "The proposed track speaks to a change in the campus culture for the students," she said, adding that it could be used for such events as club days in the fall, concerts and the annual health fair. CSUSM membership in the National Collegiate Athletic Association (NCAA) may also loom in the future, but first the University must establish five men's and five women's teams, she said. For the time being, students will have t he o pportunity to develop and p articipate in i ntramural sports, Gonzalez said. ASI President Joe Faltaous called the track a step in t he right direction, adding, "It gives t he campus a opportunity to begin hosting more programs and activities and creating a channel for uniting students." Senior Julie Baer said she voted for the referendum even though she will not be on campus next year to use it because she will still be an alumnae. "Every college with a quality reputation has a good sports program," she said. Sophomore Arwen Swink said she believes thefieldwill "make the campus a little bit more official," and pointed out that the $35 increase in student fees was more than canceled by a 5 percent t uition decrease enacted by state legislators. Josephine Jones, a literature and writing major who expects to graduate next fall, said she didn't mind paying an extra $35 even though the chances of her ever using the track were slim. "It's not so much that I'm not going to use it," she said, "I see it as an asset for the community." Jones said she was not bothered by the fact that nearly 90 percent of the s tudents failed to vote o n the referendum. "The apathy stems from society as a whole and it just trickles down to our peon level," she added. �S tudent l ounge o ne h ot p roperty B Y L O D I A O RAMAS As most of us know, the college routine is a hectic one. Getting away, if only for a couple of minutes, is not only helpful to stressed-out students, but mandatory. And there is a place on the CSUSM campus where it's possible to do that. But you'd better enjoy it while you can, because even that simple pleasure may soon be lost. The Student Lounge in Conference Room 2-206 ... equipped with a TV, a couple of tables and plenty of seating. .. may be small, but it's the only thing we have. It is now controlled by Associated Students Inc. (ASI), but other university groups are casting covetous eyes at the space. According to the CSUSM Foundation, the off-campus office responsible for the university's growth, not enough students use the lounge. The Foundation is considering taking it over and converting it into a conveyance store. The CSUSM Space Committee, on the other hand, would like to turn it into a conference room. Either way, that would leave students nowhere to go during breaks.The Student Affairs Office also has plans for the lounge, which would leave most of it intact. That office has recommended converting the back 10 feet of t he present lounge into an office to house the Pride newspaper. ASI also has recommended spending $5,000 to improve its offices, as well as the lounge, according to ASI secretary Erik Dawson. Even at present, the lounge is not always available to students, since ASI allows other campus organizations to reserve the room for special events. The Student Union also has proposed to take over the lounge, but preserve the space for students, according to Student Union chairman Matt Mugglebee. He points out that such a move would provide the group the opportunity to have "a heart on campus." The problem boils down to a familiar refrain at CSUSM: The university is growing, and its facilities aren't. There simply isn't space to accommodate everyone. Unfortunately, should the present lounge be lost, there is no plan to provide any other space to enable students to do what they should be doing beside studying and learning... relaxing. Fee increase: dent Erin Schazenbach, who voted against t he increase, asked, "Why should a third of the $35 increase go to a scholarship pool? Aren't we all in need of financial assistance? it just doesn't make sense." She added that she would rather see her money spent on construction of a better library or perhaps a center for art programs. But, according to the wishes of the anonymous $150,000 donor, the contribution could only be used for an athletic facility. Had the referendum failed, the gift would have been withdrawn. Certainly, the donation provides the university with an opportunity to create a more interactive campus, encouraging students to become more involved and concerned, but why should all students have to pay out for a facility that only an obvious minority of them cares about? And exactly how long will they have to pay what amounts to a tax? The information pamphlets provided at the polls said students will have an opportunity to vote to get rid of the $35 increase once the debt is paid. But who will initiate such a vote? The students entering CSUSM seven to 10 years from now may not even have access to this information. The extra $35 may not immediately be noticed by students, because of a temporary decrease in tuition that undoubtedly helped in its adoption. As one senior who voted in favor pointed out, it didn't seem to make a difference, thanks to the reduction. But fees are bound to go up, as they always do, and the increase will be a heavier burden for CSUSM students. Also, the termination of some costs like field maintenance and developmental growth in the future seems uncer- Student Union now recruiting students The Student Union is looking for qualified members to serve next fall. The organization is Responsible for planning and managing facilities to support and promote the campus community, according to Chairman Matt Mugglebee. The Student Union will be recruiting four new student members from April 27 through May 8. In the last year, the group has formed an official boai'd of directors and has financed the first phase of employing architects to develop a student building by the year 2002. continued from page 6 tain. Won't both be needed constantly? What if future students decide not to pay the fee anymore? Will that mean the soccer field's grass won't get cut or watered? It appears that the $18.35 fee set aside for these costs will be a fixture, unless future sports programs accrue revenue. CSUSM administrators maintain that the adoption of the increase will send the message out to the community that we care enough about our campus to spend our own money to build needed facilities. Jane Lynch, executive director of university advancement, said the track's approval was an "important partnership with the community." But will that spur the community to offer financial s upport f or f uture projects? Maybe. Maybe not. But it's hardly an assumption that students should have relied on.

Sometimes she spends three or four days searching for the perfect image, and then she waits a bit longer for good lighting and a "certain feel" between her and her subject. Even though photography is a long and hard process, Becca Siminou, a CSUSM visual arts major, says, "It's a wonderful process." Siminou's photography exhibit, "Tracing Journeys through Shadows," is now on display at Good Books Gallery, 527 Carlsbad Village Drive, at the corner of State Street in Carlsbad until May 24. It features 33 of her favorite shots, 25 of them in black-and-white, and the remaining eight in color. Many of her pictures are of landscapes, and few have people in them. "Her work is wonderful," said fellow s tudent Marcus Schiro, s taring at Siminou's favorite natural-setting picture, "Reflections." "It makes me feel relaxed and calm. "The entire exhibit is for sale. Framed color shots cost $200, framed black- and-white pictures, $160. But the pictures also are available unframed. The display is Siminou's capstone project to meet the requirements for her BA. The project is designed to bring students, as well as their art, into the community. "I photographed a lot as a kid when I was traveling with my family, and then in high school, my sophomore year, I took my first photo class, and I fell in love with it. With time, I knew it was what I wanted to do," Siminou says, "I am able to capture myself and my soid in my images and really re-energize myself. It's a way of doing something for myself as well as for people, because they are able to look at the images, see places they have never been, and maybe introduce them to a place they want to go." Through her years at both Palomar College and CSUSM, Siminou says, she has gained confidence in her work. "College is what really brought out my vision, and made me realize I have talent," ni m r n in n m 1 r rrn n' r n i n i i iiiii 'W fTTTTin m mT ii i i i "T "i iTitil fit iifiTif m n i1 mn Wl M ' ' ' i f' T' i T1 she added.

Read the lyric® sheet especially (a workofart on its own, it lends meaning t o Radiohead's brilliant tonal poetry) and suspend judgment until you've listened . to it a few times all the way through. Thisa&um definitely grows on you. The undeniably moody composition of "OK Computer" effectively weds form and content into one unassuming organic whole. The thoughtful lyrics of singer Thorn Yorke offer thematic text to intensely menacing instrumentals. Check out tracks like "Paranoid Android," "Exit Music (for a film)," "Karma Police*' and the eerie-electronic "Fitter, Happier." They're all songs that comment on the difficulty in virtue and the absurd emptiness of resolution on the moral imperative of doubt and self-improvement in the everweakened human condition. "OK Computer" offers a 12-track piece of kinetic art with contextually forceful and sensitive psychological underpinnings. Radiohead's oft-times dark and brooding ambient sound has earned the group comparisons to Pink Floyd by critics ... a comparison Greenwood modestly chalks up to the groups' common British roots. "Oxford (Radiohead's hometown) is in the center of England, but it's not really a rock n' roll town, and we don't record in a rock n' roll place," he says. "We rehearse at an old fnlit farm - an apple shed, really. I suppose that's where the Pink Floyd comparisons come in. They werefromCambridge. "It's that whole pop songs.

In a recent interview with "Spin" magazine, bassist Colin Greenwood admits, "We always talk about doing simple pop records, then end up doing some silly long thing."

It earned a Best J L Album of the Year nomination and most mainstream print media publications followed suit by placing it on their "ten best" list as well. While I'm of the opinion that the Grammys reflect out-pf-touch indus|ry politics, valueless to music taps outside of the mainstream, I II admit it: The hype alone drove me to buy this CD. Like anyone else, I feel the pressure to want to listen to esoteric bands that no one has ever heard of, but despite the urge to be disagreeable here, I have to concur with the Grammys. "OK Computer," Radiohead's third release, would be an asset to anyone's collection. My worst nightmare of becoming a closet pop fan is slowly coming true. Radiohead has experienced its share of variable success. Its two previous releases, "Pablo Honey" and "The Bends," saw considerably less fanfare. "OK Computer," on the other hand, has earned the group its highest level of critical and commercial success to date.

Electronic access to databases can certainly be a boon, but only if the consumer is discerning. Your reporter proclaimed the "richness" of the Electric Library database and offered as evidence "a well-balanced cross-section of data" in the form of National Review, Psychology Today, Newsday and USA Today, not one scholarly publication among them, and one of them the McPaper of our age. The inclusion of The Complete Works of Shakespeare is curious in that it would seem t o be one of t he most readily available books (remember those?) in any library, negating the necessity of paying $10 per month to "read" the Bard via a cathode ray tube. My points are these: First, when all is said and done, jthers is^no s^bstituteioi; walking through a library and actually touching and reading books and journals; in some cases, that is the only place you will find what you need for a scholarly paper. Second, for this campus—and its students and their publications—to mature, it is incumbent upon the faculty advisors of the student paper to more carefully examine what is being touted as the most important story of the week. (Buried in the same issue was t he more i mportant and timely article r egarding remedial courses in the CSU system.) William Brigham Lecturer, SGciology Program letters to the editor Use library's resources: free of charge Dear editor: I write in response to Dan LaBelle's lead article in "The Pride" of April 2, 1998. "Electric Library Addresses Research Woes" touts an Internet resource which provides access to popular journals for $59.95 annually. I invite all "Pride" readers to use an array of resources supporting the CSUSM curriculum — absolutely free. Enter the Library from the 3rd floor courtyard of Craven Hall and there you'll find several databases which will give you full-text information from more than 1500 journals in a variety of subject areas. Plus you'll find library staff who will help you formulate search strategies and evaluate the information you find. Bring a disc and download the information that works best for you. While in the Library you can also get real research assistance in the Research Consultation Office and even checkout books to take home. (Believe it or not, more than 90% of scholarly information is still available only in printed form.) Many of the databases are also avail- able from the comfort of your own workstation 24 hours a day, 7 days a week by dialing in to the Library's electronic resources page ( http:// ww2.csusm.edu/library/ electronic.htm). In addition to full-text journals, you can also access the Encyclopaedia Brittanica. Contemporary Authors, and databases that include college catalogs from over 6,900 institutions as well as company and industry information. The Library's government documents page ( http:// ww2.csusm.edu / govdoc / index.htm) provides links to government sites at the local, state, national, and international levels. Whether in the Library or at home, you can also search the Library's catalog and order books from SDSU, UCSD or USD libraries through the San Diego Library Circuit. Your campus library has a wealth of resources. Come use them — in person or virtually! Sincerely, Marion T.

I found out some interesting things about these candidates. I found, that one could make a monkey smile, therefore we should vote for him. Another could rap, therefore we should vote for him. And, others simply told us to vote for them, but for no real reason. One thing that was lacking from every candidate was any substantive reason as to why we should vote for them at all. What do they believe in? What type of experience do they have? What are their philosophies and/or views. What issues do they feel are important and why? None of these items were addressed. Also, the manner in which the election was run forced those who actually voted to vote solely based on acquaintance, redfieing these'electiofis to little* more http://www.save.org than a high-school popularity contest. We now attend a university and I feel that the issues deserve considerably more regard; regard which has not been forthcoming. Now, arguably, there is little in the way of a forum for the candidates to be heard. I feel they could create their own forum if they so desired but probably will not if the current method used continues to work for them. I therefore have a proposition for the Associated Students Inc. ASI should mandate a forum as a requirement for running. In other words, if a person decides to runfor an office, they would be required t o, o n a specified day, present a 3-5 minute speech on there merits, experience, and views on issues. This forum could be held in a vacant lecture hall and would cost the school little if anything at all. The information gained however would be invaluable in helping the students guide and plan for the future of this university. I cannot believe for a moment that I am the only person who feels this way. I ask the ASI to consider this suggestion or similar suggestions, for the issues that the students face everyday are too important to leave to someone simply because a monkey smiles in their presence.
