PRIDE STAFF WRITER

Dear Psyche Fairy,
I am a 35 year old divorced
mother of 2 and have found
myself becoming increasingly attracted to one of my coworkers. I never seemed to
notice him before, but lately
I wait for his subtle hints and
flirtations with great anticipation. I am worried about
breaking one of the cardinal
rules of dating, however:
Don't go out with someone
you work with. What do you
think? — Dateless and
Divorced
Other than telling you to
keep your main focus on
your children who must be
the most important creatures
in your life, I recommend
that you forget that rule.
Unless you are a volatile person (or he is) then you
needn't avoid a relationship
with him. I find it awfully
cute that you get that "rush"
from his subtle flirtations and
there is a lot of richness in
just those acts that we tend to
ignore. It will be tricky, no
doubt, to figure out what his
feelings are towards you.
Perhaps you can get some
dinner after work and chat
over a glass of Cabernet. You
need to carefully assess if he
is "interested" in you and
pursue the relationship if he
is. You can't seem aggressive
at work because that could
create problems. If you
become friendly enough, just
tell him about your feelings
without any pressure—just
as you expressed them to me.
^Lf he feels similarly, he will

likely reciprocate with some
words of encouragement for
a budding relationship. That
rule about not getting together with a coworker is meant
for those who can't handle
their emotions. Ask yourself
this: could you break up with
him and still remain cordial?
If not, then it'd probably be
best to not get involved. If
yes, then the workplace is a
good place to meet people.
You already share something
in life and perhaps more
because your job may attract
a particular type of person
that is suited for you. Good
luck and please remember
that your worth as a person,
mom, or whatever does not
change according to your
dating status.
Dear Psyche Fairy,
Your response to Josh in the
August 30 issue of The Pride
was insightful and prompts a
question that has puzzled me
for many years. As homosexuals are attracted to those of
the same sex both mentally
and physically, why are gays
aroused and/or entertained
when men impersonate
women?—Evelyn
Evelyn, this question seemed
so silly to me that I wasn't
sure if it is a serious curiosity. First, you must understand that there are differences between attraction,
arousal, and entertainment.
In terms of being entertained,
my friend jokingly asks,
"Am I a lesbian because I am
entertained

singers?" Do straight people
want to marry clowns
because they find them entertaining? Just because gays
(and lesbians...and bisexuals...and straights) are entertained by drag queens we
cannot assume that they are
attracted to these drag
queens. Arousal, on the other
hand, can be accomplished in
many ways. If I blindfolded
you and told you that your
lover was going to pleasure
you, do you think y ou'd
know if I replaced this lover
with myself? Since arousal is
a physiological reaction to a
physical stimulus, I could
touch or lick you in the right
places to make you feel
aroused. People can be
aroused by many things, trust
me. Finally, attraction is not
a set-in-stone type phenomenon. Haven't you ever been
attracted to someone who
later turns
you o ff?
Sometimes you want dark
chocolate, the next day,
mocha. Now, to get to the
heart of your question, I have
to shatter your image and
inform you that many drag
queens "go home with"
straight men! Yes, some gay
men are attracted to drag
queens, but not most. Why
do you think most gay ads
contain beefcakes? Why do
so many straight men pick up
on drag queens? That is up to
you to discover, but sometimes it represents a sexual
frolic that is easily hidden
from their girlfriends/wives
and requires no commitment.

Associated Students, Recreation Program, Health Service, Health Facilities,
IRA, Student Union, Student Recreation and Recreation fees as a fiill-time student? These fees total $93.1 have an 8:00 am to 5:00 pm j ob which prevents me
from using most of these services because they are not available in the evening.
Why am I not, at least, given a choice of whether or not I want to participate in
them?
When I began my night school studies at this university two years ago, it was
because a degree program designed to assist the working student was promoted.
In many cases what I find is the evening student is penalized because they pay in
full for services that, in most cases they have no need for, but if they did, are not
available to them.
If Cal State San Marcos is planning to increase their part-time evening student
enrollment, I vigorously suggest they modify these inequities.

° N APRIL 2 2 a n d 23&gt; 1 9 9 9 &gt; t h e University changed its mascot from Tukwut to
Cougar. The Administration arranged for the students of CSUSM to vote on
their new mascot. Under the guise of fairness, Cougar was selected. The little known fact about the choices on
the allegedly fair vote is that after 10 years of being the mascot of the University 'Tukwut' was NOT one of the
options for mascot on the ballot. Why? Tukwut (pronounced 'too-kwoot") is apparently too difficult to pronounce.
The pioneering students of this campus were given the charge of finding a mascot for the University some ten
years ago. True to the Mission Statement of the University, the group of students sought a symbol that represented the cultural history and richness of the area. After spending some time researching, these students discovered
that the Luiseno Tribe were the original inhabitants.
In keeping with their quest to be respectful of history of the land and its people, the group of students made
contact with Villana Hyde, a Luiseno Indian. This great woman had created a dictionary of Luiseno words in
English. She presented the word Tukwut to the students as a gift. The word Tukwut in Luiseno means mountain
lion. The students, grateful for this gift, accepted the word from Villana Hyde.
By omitting Tukwut from the ballot, the administration has chosen to disregard this gift and the will of the students at CSUSM. The time has come to take a stand! While it is true that they gave the students a chance to
vote for an "official" mascot, the omission of Tukwut stands as a glaring example of insensitivity and disregard
for the students' rights to influence the culture and direction of their University. This is an act of injustice! In
the words of one administrative official on campus, "We can change things at the University and the students
wouldn't even know."
Is this what we want? Do we want things to be changed at OUR University without us knowing? The time
has come to take a stand! All we are asking for is the opportunity for a FAIR vote. Let's give Tukwut a fair
chance on a ballot. Give the Itakwut another chance to be heard.

admirable collection of
art. The Oceanside

a plein air artist with
works that provide a
record of our region

You may have noticed a special bunch of young men and
women cleaning the rest rooms
and emptying trash cans on
campus. They are college-age
special education students from
Vista Unified School District
here to acquire vocational training. "Janitorial skills are not
what they are being taught",
said director John Hull, " but
skills that are needed in the
workplace such as responsibility, showing up on time, and the
ability to achieve their goals."
Kathy DeLar assists John in
the instruction of the ten developmentally delayed students.
She says that some days teaching can be a challenge because
of the special learning styles of
each of the students. Each stu-

iwmmmmm S ImHHHH m
dent learns differently,
essence, "it's like teaching ten
different classes every day."
Mr. Hull would like fellow
students at CSUSM to understand that these students have
the same desires as all young
adults at this age, to get a job
and be productive in society.
In the past these young people were shut away from society. Today, due to mainstreaming in schools, they are a vital,
flourishing part of our community.
"Being developmentally
delayed is not catching", Hull
stated. When you pass one of
these special students somewhere on campus, smile and
say, "Hi!"

It's been called the

GSUSM, but it's better. It's

The library's collection of
non-print materials includes
popular movies* foreign language films in a surprising array
of languages, documentaries,
and closed-captioned materials

Dr. George Vourlitis, ecologist and CSUSM professor,
stepped into the Brazilian rain
forest on Aug. 19,1999, and fulfilled a boyhood dream. He and
his
collaborators
from
Universid Federal de Mato
Grosso were there to conduct
documented research on the
effects of deforestation.
Most of us have read how "It
is thought that destruction of the
rain forest causes global warming." This hypothesis has been
floating around for most of our
lives in print and media, and yet
no one has proven it. The
opportunity came for Vourlitis
two years ago when he read a
NASA solicitation for proposals
to do the study. A US proposal
would need strong Brazilian
cooperation and collaboration to

ensure a successful outcome.
Through email communication
with ecologists living in or near
rain forests, Vourlitis found the
scientists in the Mato Grosso
area fitted the specific NASA
recommendations. They were
willing to travel to the United
States at their own expense to

learn the necessary methods and
technology.
This begins with the conversion of land to agriculture, then
to pasture, and the subsequent
return to New Forest growth.
Land conversion is hypothesized to be a major contributor

to the increase in global C 02
concentration and the raising of
global temperatures through
greenhouse warming. This particular phase will end on Feb. 2,
2000.
While NASA was unable to
fund the research at this time,
Vourlitis was commended by
Michael Keller, chair of the
NASA
LB A
(Large-scale
Biosphere Atmospheric) experiment, who told him the study
was badly needed by the space
agency. He asked Vourlitis to
submit the proposal again. Not
wanting to wait any longer,
Vourlitis and his fellow scientists decided to solicit seed
money for the project. With
help f rom CSUSM, the
Brazilian government and army,
local donations and money from
their own pockets, they were
able to fulfill a lifetime dream

all-star salsa band. He's had three Grammy nominations and ten albums .

rain forests? Imagine a world
without the migratory birds that
breed in the tropics but raise
their young in the U.S. Birds are
natural predators of those insect
pests that can ruin crops and
other vegetation. Large amounts
- of water also cycle through the
tropics. Without trees, water
would evaporate quickly causing
atmospheric
pressure
changes, climate and weather

changes, and a change in our life
styles.
Tropical rain forests have contributed medicines, foods, and
fiber to Americans through the
years. The genetic basis for
many U.S. Crops originated in
tropical regions.
Potential
genetic origins for improving
known crops and creating new
ones would be lost if rain forests
no longer existed.

In addition to videos, the
holdings include compact
discs, spoken and musical
audio tapes, and CD-ROMs.
The Media Library also
boasts a large musical collection on tape and CD appealing
to a wide range of tastes.
Recordings include world
music from Nepal, Thailand,
India, Aboriginal Australia,
and Greece. A large Frank
Zappa collection stands on the
same rack as Igor Stravinsky
and Selena Rock, pop, country, classical, jazz, blues, and
international music can be
played in-house or taken home.
Students may check out a maximum of two C D's and two
videos for a period of one
week, with no renewals. The
Media Library also has individual listening and viewing
stations for those who prefer to
sample their media on-site.
A collection of slides, mostly images of art and architecture, is in the midst of a
cataloguing project, and will
be available for students to use

next semester. The Media
Library also has equipment
available for checkout, such as
laser light pointers, portable
slide projectors and overhead
projectors, CD and cassette
players, portable PA systems,
VHS camcorders (with faculty
signature) and tripods.
Did the school go to all this
trouble just to entertain the students? Actually, Mitchell says,
all of the materials are purchased "with curriculum in
mind." She estimates that twothirds of the collection consists
of academic material. So when
you drop by the Media Center to
see what it has to offer, remember, it's for your education. And
put away that Blockbuster card.
