Topics included security, facilities use, liability issues and financial management. Officials who addressed the group alternately praised and threatened, cajoled and teased, inspired and depressed the leaders who had given their Friday afternoon to this very important cause. The hosts distributed liberal quantities of H allowe'en candy, many handouts, and 3-inch binders containing detailed information all student leaders and club advisors require. Campus Chief of Police Tom Schultheis reflected on the definition of hate crimes and explained how campus clubs are expected to pay for security for large-scale and dangerous campus events. Calvin One Deer, Director of Student and Residential L ife, lamented the precipitous decline in the number of campus clubs in recent years and expressed the hope that the falling-off of interest in campus organizations would reverse itself. Officials explained that before a club can schedule any activity, students must complete a detailed "Activity Risk Assessment F orm/' obtain the advisor's signature, and submit the form to the ASI office.

Cahill PRIDE EDITOR The annual Dia de los Muertos celebration was held this past Tuesday on the Palm Court between ACD and University Hall. The celebration, sponsored by CSUSM's Day of the Dead Committee, included poetry readings and cafavera readings, in addition to traditional altars, sugar skulls, and papel picado designs. Highly decorated altars, covered in marigolds, the traditional flower of Dia de los Muertos, brightly colored paper decoration, photos, and other significant mementos of loved ones who have passed on filled the courtyard. CSUSM students, faculty, and staff joined in the occasion, constructing their own altars for deceased loved ones. Dia de los Muertos is traditionally celebrated in Mexico on the first and second of November. On these days, altars are constructed in honor of deceased loved ones, and offerings are made to them. Offerings include the favorite foods of the deceased, alcohol and tobacco, and items impor- tant to them in their mortal lives. The purpose of these offerings is to honor the spirit and memory of the deceased. The celebration originated in pre-Columbian Mexico. Scholars believe the tradition originated with the Olmecs, possibly as long as 3000 years ago. This celebration was passed on to other cultures such as the Toltecs, Maya, Zapotec, Mixtec and Aztecs. The Aztec version of the celebration of honoring the dead is recognized as the most formative in contemporary practices celebrating Dia de Los Muertos in the United States. The Aztec celebration was held during the month of Miccailhuitontli, and was presided over by the goddess Mictecacihuatl, Lady of the Dead, and dedicated to children and the dead. Following the Spanish conquest of Mexico during the 16th century, Catholicism added new dimensions to the celebration, blending the customs of the Aztec, and other native peoples. The Catholic tradition of All Saints' Day and All Hallows Eve (Hallowe'en) roughly coincided with the preexisting celebration of Mictecacihuatl. The present day event draws from both Roman Cathofic and preColumbian traditions. PAUL BLANCHARD / The Pride MACARIO Madcap Otis Rocks San Marcos Catherine Armas-Matsumoto June Hodges PRIDE STAFF WRITER PRIDE STAFF WRITER Coinciding with the "The Day of the Dead" celebration this month on campus, "Death" is the theme for this semester's Hispanic Film Festival, sponsored by CSUSM's Latin World Understanding Student Association, an organization dedicated to promoting appreciation of all Latin culture. Approximately thirty attendees gathered Wednesday, November 3rd at 6:00pm, in Commons 206 to view Macario. Produced in 1958, the film depicts the tradition of "el Dia de los Muertos" in Mexico. A group of young, talented musicians called Madcap Otis provided noontime entertainment f or an appreciative audience on Tuesday, Nov. 2, 1999, in the outdoor Dome area. The program of j azz, blues, funk, country, hip-hop, and gospel included several original pieces written by members of the group. All seven of the performers, f ive men and two women, are in their early twen- Based on B, Tavern's book and directed by award-winning director of photography Gabriel Figueroa, the movie Macario, presented in Spanish with English subtitles, is rich in symbolism and metaphor. The story's main character, Macario, a hard working man living in poverty with his family, meets his destiny with Death. Complex on several levels, the film provided excellent subject matter for the spirited discussion that followed. The discussion was facilitated by the club's faculty advisor Dr. Carlos von Son, who shared his knowledge of Hispanic literature and cinema with those present. See MACARIO pg. 7 ^ ties and have been involved in bands or singing since high school. Rosy-Da wnSelwitz, f ull time music major at San Diego State, started her career singing in c offeehouses with her mother as a teenager. Members of the band include Christian Carriger (acoustic guitar), Ben Todd (bass, harmonica), Rebecca Alman (organ), J. J. Sherman (lead guitar, mandolin), Frank Lazarro (hand drums), a nd. Mark Schneider (percussion). The group describes their music as being "eclectic/psychedelic rock and roll." The group performs at Papa Jacks in the Gas Lamp Quarter, Winston's in Ocean Beach, C ain's in La Paloma and N eiman's in Carlsbad. They participated in the "Live at t he B ay" outdoor music festival in Mission Beach, which l i H i wm§ r- ~ v attracted families and people of all ages last summer. Audience member Pauline Brown described the Madcap Otis performers as having "great rhythm, cool j azz," and Janelle Kent observed, "They are diverse, talented — great blues singing."

FORE / The Pride �2 OPINION Monday, November 08, 1999 DEAR READER: DEAR EDITORS: A week and a half-ago two different clubs on campus publicly accused The Pride of partiality. One student even accused The Pride of being a "tabloid." If that isn't bad enough, it has come to my attention that several articles and letters printed in our student paper have offended various people or groups of people on campus. These and other negative repercussions to offering a mouthpiece for student voice COULD cause me much anxiety, but on review, I am pleased to be a part of this paper, and a part of this campus community. In fact, CSUSM students, faculty, and staff should celebrate the spirit of openness that allows negative commentary as one facet of the communication that exists between The Pride and its readers. In perusal of other university papers, I notice that student issues explored in their pages are minimal, at best. Most articles come off of the college wires, or a re feature or entertainment pieces. In contrast, our student paper attempts to present fair reporting of actual student news that comes from this university. Perhaps of more importance, our readers feel free to respond to the issues presented in our paper, whether for good or ill. Our writers and editors are students, not experienced journalists. We are still learning, but we are dedicated to offering our readers our best efforts in reporting, writing, and editing the news. Part of our "best efforts" includes facilitating communication between members of the campus community. The Pride has many supporters among the administration, faculty, staff, and student body who offer help, advice, and yes, criticism. On behalf of the editorial team, I thank you for your support and tolerance. Without you, The Pride could not exist. In response to Juniata Greenlee's letter in the November 1st issue of The Pride, I feel it is necessary to point out to you that it was the YAF, not the College Republicans, who accused The Pride of being a "tabloid." I am not a member of the College Republicans, nor do I plan to be, but I must come to their defense on this matter. My own political persuasions can be better described as a conser vative environmentalist, and have led me to vote for Libertarians, Republicans, Greens, or occasionally a (gasp!) Democrat. The College Republicans are a respected, nationwide organization with national leadership committed to the furthering of a genuine "republican democracy (note lower case " R," meaning "a republic")," as specified in the Constitution, "...with liberty and j ustice for all" (not j ust straight, white, anglo-saxon males) with a foundation in the teachings of God and many 17th and 18th Century philosophers. The YAF, by contrast, appears to be a ' one-off' collection of opinionated fascists whose feelings cannot be logically jus tified in any way. Oh, and to those who would quote Leviticus twenty-something or other to me ("'Homosexuality is an abomination,' sayeth the Lord."), check out the new covenant given to us by Jesus Christ (the New Testament), "...love your neighbors,...forgive your enemies,...pray for your tormen tors,..." Good stuff like that. Cynthia Woodward Graduate Intern, The Pride NOTHING FOR THE AVERAGE STUDENT After half a semester at California State University San Marcos it has become painfully clear that if I remain here for my entire college education I will die of boredom. D on't get me wrong, I think that this is a great school academically but besides going to class, there is nothing else to do at this campus. If you have a class on Friday, then I think you know what I am talking about. On Fridays, this campus looks kind of like a ghost town. I am just waiting for the tumbleweeds to roll by the window as I sit inside my half empty classroom. The first thing that I thought was interesting and a little shocking was that the average age of the student at this school is around 28. Now being 18 and right out of high school I didn't EbeJWbe Help Stop Sweatshops By Michelle Jacob I recently attended the California Students against Sweatshops conference in Berkeley. It was there that I learned about the student movement against sweatshop oppression. This movement is nationwide, and the CSU schools are trying to unite to bring about changes on our campus and in our communities. Several representatives at the conference spoke about how their campus bookstores (including some C SU's) are selling sweatshop-made clothing. One example that was showed to us was a typical embroidered college T-shirt which retailed at $ 15 in the bookstore. The woman who made, the shirt in a sweatshop got 3 cents for making the shirt. These extraordinarily low wages are the norm for sweatshop workers, and many people are forced to live in desperate poverty because of these low wages. Is our bookstore selling sweatshop items? This gross inequality is something in which our university should not take part. We need to investigate the products our bookstore sells. Anyone (student, staff, faculty, or community member) who is interested in this cause, has additional questions, or would like to help in the investigation can email: activist55@hotmail.com Scott Weselis DEAR EDITORS: DEAR EDITORS: I have noticed that The Pride now accepts letters and editorials from students on an anonymous basis. In my opinion this is detrimental to the intellectual growth of the newspaper and the campus community. I know of no other established newspaper in the United States that will accept and print letters from those who wish to remain anonymous. It is simply a matter of credibility. I am concerned about those who write letters under the protection of anonymity if you believe in an opinion enough to write it down then sign your name to it also. The realization that the university I attend produces students that are either unwilling or unable to stand behind their own beliefs is very unsettling. It is my understanding that a college newspaper should provide experience in the field of journalism while striving to instill a high amount of quality and integrity for those reporting and editorializing. Respectfully, Brent Wells expect to be in classes sitting next to people who were married and had two kids already. The next thing that I thought was interesting about this school is that there is no on campus living. I understand that this school is still young but it seems to me that no campus living spells no campus life. Also to my knowledge, I might be wrong about this, there is only one sports team. Track. That's great if your good at running but what about all the other sports there are. I understand that the track team is doing very well. But track is not the kind of sport where the whole student body comes out to see them compete like at a Notre Dame football game where the all students paint their faces and all rally together and have a good time. I found nothing like that at this school. These are a few main factors that I can see that are major contributors to the fact that going to school at CSUSM is a bore. I used to think that this school was pretty good until I visited some friends over the weekend at their schools. I must say I feel cheated. My friends are all having the time of their lives and I am here in San Marcos sweating in the hot sun as I watch my college life slowly go by. I must admit that there have been some attempts made to better the student life here at this school but they have had no success. I don't know how it can be done or even where to start, but I do know that something should be done to make life at this school more enjoyable for the average student. Joe I am one of the so-called "tabloid" student writers and I am proud to write for The Pride. I challenge myself to cover many fields. I try to take on as many different topical issues as possible in order to become a versatile writer. I absorb accumulated information and use as much judgment I can to submit an objective article. The information can be helpful for some people and useless for others, but at least i t's out there. For a person to use words like "tabloid" to describe my writing is laughable. But sometimes opinions can carry a louder bark than bite. I can understand people having grievances that carry weight. The person who made the tabloid comment did not raise a valid argument. He supposedly had 200 signatures and brought forward conjectural evidence. Leiana and Samantha held there own on the Mic and correctly represented the newspaper. The advice I 'd offer my fellow students are to submit letters such as this one and take the student newspaper course next semester. By the way, I 've got a great topic for the next issue: "YAF member abducted by aliens!" Whatcha think? RETRACTIONS: In the article "New Faucet Change Complies with ADA Standards" in the October 25, 1999 issue of The Pride, the sentence "...the push-down faucets did not comply with standards defined in the Americans with Disabilities Act (ADA)" was incorrect. The originally installed pushdown type Simmons faucets' are designed to comply fully with the ADA.' The article also stated the replaced faucets hadn't undergone routine maintenance for seven years. ' The original faucets had not been a regular part of a preventative maintenance program for about one year," says Chuck Walden, Associate Director of Facilities. "Until he had to be temporarily reassigned to a more urgent issue, he [Dennis McFarland, Maintenance Mechanic J was responsible f or maintaining the [plumbing] f ixtures." Mike Spangler, Pride Staff Writer, apologizes for the article's discrepancies. In the October 18, 1999 article "ICC Budget Settled," the vote to grant the Chair, Vice Chair and Treasurer $400 in Student Development money in scholarships and grants to pay tuition costs was not a "unanimous" as stated. Pride Staff Writer Penny Lanese apologizes for the misinformation.

Every day the ground shakes on campus and on Twin Oaks Valley Road. Hanson Aggregates. They are a San Diego-based company whose business produces concrete, asphalt, and gravel by using rock and sand blasted f rom the ground. The quarry operation next door to the CSUSM campus is an exchange of excavated granite for the leveling of the land, behind the FCB building and upper faculty lot, towards "building-pad height." Ninety percent of asphalt pavement and eighty percent of concrete come from aggregates. Without aggregates, building is impossible. The United States produces over two billion tons of aggregates per year, and Hanson is ranked number three in national production. Formerly known as South Coast Materials (an entity of Hanson Aggregates), in March of 1999 Hanson decided to bring their San Diego holdings together under one name. Approximately f ifty-five workers are employed at their facility. Hanson made two notable purchases in San Diego County last year. In February of 1998, they acquired HG Fenton, the leading aggregate supplier in San Diego, for a $87.-5 million cash purchase. In December of the same year, Nelson & Sloan was purchased for $37.6 million, making Hanson Aggregates the leading aggregate supplier for San Diego County. According to Hanson o fficials, the market here is "extremely attractive." Hanson Aggregates is a branch of Hanson PLC, the leading UK aggregate company that has been purchasing aggregate companies in the United States. In f act, Hanson says that Hanson Building Material America was the principal engine of Hanson's 1998 growth, which boasted a one-year sales growth in 1998 of 25%, making the total sales for the year $4,992.9 million. i iiil CONDO FOR SALE : 2 br 1 1/2 bath 1190 sq. f t, 2 story, spacious grd. level patio, 2nd level balcony, sunken living room/dining area, brk bar, excellent closet space, low-flush toilets, washer/dryer hook up inside, gas heating, gas self cleaning oven, pantry area, wooden shutters on windows. 2 car garage, green, lush common area w/trees, pool, club house.

I know, it's a horrible stereotype but why should I avoid them if the director, Wayne Wang (of The Joy Luck Club fame), won't. Actress and college freshman Natalie Portman, (probably better known as Queen Amidala f rom the new Star Wars), is the young female lead, Ann August. Susan Sarandon, who gets top billing in the promotional materials, but evidently not because of her acting, plays the "adult" female lead, Adele August. And the male lead? Well, there i sn't one. I expected m ore f rom Susan Sarandon and hoped for more from the movie. T he movie doesn't beat up on men too badly, but nonetheless reinforces gender stereotypes of both men and women. Women are still portrayed as docile dependent victims (of men and of. their own delusions) and men are placed in roles of womanizer, abandoning Dad, and soft-spoken, spineless, insignificant living furniture. The best scenes were given to the young Portman, like when she flips the gender-roles' coin and commands her admirer (Peter, played by Corbin Aired), who has just walked in her front door, "Take your clothes o ff." Unfortunately many potentially touching or inspiring scenes went undeveloped or, in the case of the aforementioned scene, the female character reveals to the audience that she i s not strong enough to continue in such a strong role. Indeed role reversal is a major theme with responsible, rational figure as the daughter, while the mother is a careless spendthrift. The reversals are so spoon fed and superficial that they are boring and predictable. No one ever suffers serious consequences for their wrongdoing, the negative stereotypes go virtually unpunished, and most conversations between mother and daughter end in a j oke without resolution. The film's happy Hollywood Ending lacks the gut wrenching squeeze and instead produces nothing more than hot air. The movie may be inspiring for the sweet-sixteen and under crowd, but if you want to see it I suggest that you call your local theaters f or show times, because I predict that it w on't stay there long past its Friday, November 12 opening date. Breakdown Breaks Out! By Joni Miller PRIDE STAFF WRITER By Joni Miller aE il W Boys Don't Cry is a remarkable debut effort by director Kimberly Peirce which imparts the true-life story of Brandon Teena. Peirce guides the audience through the short and tragic life of a young girl who undergoes a sexual identity crisis and faces immense injustice for it in a small Midwestern town. Born Teena Brandon, she transforms her identity into that of Brandon Teena, to pursue a life based on his own truth, that of a man. A courageous albeit reckless effort by the young Brandon to live this life, brings catastrophic results when his female identity/body is exposed. 4/ J^jS;? 0m tik Em PRIDE STAFF WRITER J A ±JT nnl Melissa Etheridge has once again created a compilation of rich lyrics and soulful melodies that engage the heart of any lover. The tide track, "Breakdown," blends the anguish of ending a relationship with the solace of knowing that in spite of the pain, the choice was a good one. The classic Etheridge edginess of the piece compels the listener to ask for more, but she gives you just enough to satisfy the call. "Angels Will Fall," the first single to be released off of the new CD, is rising up the charts. "Angels" fuses spiritual longing with earthly desire and culminates in pure fulfillment, both lyrically and musically. Etheridge takes some liberty in self-expression on "Enough of Me," a passionate track that boasts a Freudian connection of sorts. The song is a real treat for all the codependent listeners out there—something too many of us can relate to, unfortunately. Openly Lesbian, Etheridge addresses the feelings of being different as a child in, "Mama I 'm Strange." This cut expresses the longing to be loved, and the ever present need to fit in, to survive. Hauntingly real and inexplicably vivid is Etheridge's loving tribute to Mathew Shepard, "Scarecrow." Her lyrics capture the senseless persecution the young college student suffered before he was brutally murdered in Wyoming. Her words call out to a nation to be accountable for the intolerance and bigotry that defines us. Etheridge's most political effort by far, "Breakdown" bequeaths us eleven gifts of the heart. The CD is enhanced, and can be enjoyed on your personal computer as well as the best that Dolby can supply. It will steal your heart. Hilary Swank (of "Beverly Hills 90210") delivers an extraordinary performance as Brandon Teena. Moving a few hundred miles from his hometown of Lincoln, Nebraska, Brandon begins a new life in Falls City. Meeting up with some local outcasts in a seedy bar, Brandon quickly becomes part of the family of a small group of bored and equally trapped youth known as the "wall people." The supporting cast of characters include Lana (Chloe Sevismy) as Brandon's understanding lover, Candace (Alicia Goransonrone of the "Beckys" from "Roseanne") as Lana's fair weather friend, and John Lotter (Peter Sarsgaard) as a deranged ex-convict with eyes for Lana.

I also vowed to take time out during the winter break to catch up on some " pleasure" reading. I read an article about "Fung something or other" in a magazine and I thought that I would grab a book at the local library for further research.

She is also a student of John T. Mol ley's book, Dress for Success, and has used his recommendations to assist in clothing women from the Oceanside Women's Resource C enter's shelter who are ready to take that first step toward independence. Debra has also advised graduates from Regional Occupational Programs, community colleges, and others who have been out of the j ob market for years. Debra's j ob requires more than simply helping shoppers find suitable outfits. "Women come in and are literally shaking at the thought of an interview," Debra notes. Many of them are just beginning to build up their self-confidence after years of abuse and/or demeaning brainwashing. It's helpful to begin by getting the woman to explain her fear. "Usually this helps t o relax the shopper, and i t's easier to move on to the good part-a fun shopping experience," she said. on a budget check out the bargains available on school clothing at Tried & True. She displayed an example by scurrying to a packed slack rack, retrieving a pair of brown corduroy jeans and swiftly selecting a matching sweater from a neighboring rack. "$7.00 f or the o utfit," she announced. Neither the jeans nor the sweater showed evidence of being worn by the donator. According to the Tried & True Manager, research indicates that college students tend toward casual attire for a j ob interview. Although the more relaxed dress code is being allowed in many o ffices today, i t's a mistake to believe this is proper for an interview. "The interviewer's impression of the j ob candidate, made during the first five minutes, is usually the strongest and casual dress reflects a casual attitude," she cautioned. Debra recommends that women look like women but dress in a masculine way; that is, they should wear suits, complementing blouses, plain pumps and a minimum of jewelry. You don't have to pay a fortune to dress for success, according to Debra Watson-Samson, Tried & True Resale Store manager. Debra espouses the multitude of money saving opportunities for CSUSM students, faculty, and staff. "Yes, I can help an aspiring j ob applicant choose an appropriate suit, blouse, shoes and accessories for $20," Where does Tried & True get its merchandise? Shopaholics are their most bountiful contributors, the manager explained. It is not unusual for the price tags to be on items when they are delivered to the shop. Men who have lost their wives or mothers are also frequent donators. Debra said it's important for these men to watch as she examines the items and assures the grieved one of his double good deed-his loved one's belongings will provide a bargain buy to someone who needs it, and the proceeds will support the Oceanside Women's Resource Center.

Debra said, "Students need to know that a one-bedroom apartment can be fully furnished for under $1,200. This price includes linens, dishes, television, VCR, refrigerator and microwave." Debra suggested that students Learning that many CSUSM students are parents of young children, Debra wanted to make sure they also heard about the store's great buys on children's clothing. All items are $2.00 and less except for two-piece outfits and pajamas, which are $3.00. "On top of that," she said proudly, "proceeds from purchases go to support Oceanside's Women's Resource Center.

A Bagua has eight areas and charts where the blessings are located in your home or workplace. Each area is associated with a color and an element such as water, metal, i ire, and wood. The key to feng shui is to balance the elements and combine with the free flow of ch % To understand the Bagua, imagine a tic tack toe grid - the outside squares represent a different area of life that can be filled with positive energy to gain the most fulfillment, The entry of a room determines the placement of the Bagua. (The entry should align with the areas of Knowledge, Career' Travel.) Putting feng shui to work is easier than you may think. Simple enhancements such as green plants in your health area can give you renewed energy. Pictures of happy couples in your marriage and family center brighten the prospects for finding the perfect mate. Running water, such as a fountain or aquarium, in your wealth center can help wealth flow into your l ife - but watch out f or leaky faucets, your ch 'i could be going down the drain. Arrange a collage of pictures of dream destinations cut from a magazine and hang it in your travel quadrant, chances are that a vacation is in your future. Don't forget to study in good light, burn some incense, and light a candle in your knowledge and self cultivation area to magnify the positive c/i'z moving as you prepare for finals. And for those of you who are looking f or the perfect career, hang a wind chime at your front door to summon the opportunity of a lifetime. Still think this i s hooey? A fter getting a good chuckle o ver,my newfound hobby, a friend mentioned that she was going to be out of work - if her father's business didn't pick up. I suggested some minor alterations in her wealth center as well as her travel and helpful people quadrant. I handed a couple of bunches of purple flowers to arrange in groups of four and sent her on her way. With a healthy dose of skepticism, she headed for home to apply the feng shui remedies I had suggested. Three days later she called to let me know that her father had been awarded a large contract that would keep her steadily employed for two years. Not bad for an amateur practitioner. Once you have taken the time to feng shui your space, don't just let it go. It is amazing how quickly a few scrap papers can turn into piles of junk or a beautiful green plant left without water can die. Negative energy will soon follow. My office is in the Knowledge & SelfCultivation area of my home, a place where I am extremely productive with my business and schoolwork. However, the space has become a catchall of clutter and mess, and it has been weeks since I have felt comfortable sitting in front of the computer to work on my term papers. Sitting in the space causes me anxiety, loss of concentration and worse, it has brought about a trend towards procrastination. I 'll certainly be focusing my feng shui eyes on my office before I prepare for finals. Practitioners cannot guarantee specific results, but "millions of people have benefited from the extraordinary power of feng shui," according to an associate from the Western School of Feng Shui in Solana Beach, CA. Personally - I 'm a true believer and suggest that before you shrug this off as silly superstition, give it a try. The results may astound you!

If a club plans to travel, "it is required that an ASI travel packet be completed and turned in to the ASI Business Office. . . two weeks prior to traveling date." Approval for use of campus facilities should be secured six weeks prior to any event, using a "Facility Request Form.," signed by club advisor and ASI Executive Director.

ATTENTION WORK STUDY STUDENTS THE PRIDE IS HIRING STUDENT ASSISTANTS Recycling for the Future June H odges PRIDE STAFF WRITER On Monday, Nov. 15, 1999, CSUSM holds its 3rd annual "America Recycles Day" and the "Dumpster Dive." The goal is to educate the campus community on the importance of recycling and the importance of looking for and buying merchandise that states: 'Made f rom RecycledContent Materials.' The theme of the program, "For Our Children's F uture...Buy Recycled Today," reinforces the fact that we must conserve our natural resources for coming generations. The message is that if we don't use recycled materials to make new products, then recycling is j ust another form of throwing things away. , Facility Services will staff a table from 10:00am to 2:00pm on November 15 and will share information about the program. Activities planned for the day center on the "Dumpster Dive," an activity that outfits faculty members, staff, and students in protective clothing so they can dive into to Extended Studies and the Faculty Parking lot). Participants will descend into waste heaven, otherwise known as the trash receptacles, to retrieve and identify items for recycling, besides the usual items. The Dive takes place after lunch, behind the FCB Building. This adjacent activity also serves to reduce the amount of waste taken to landfills, and to increase awareness of CSUSM's recycling program. Participants in the Dumpster Dive receive a free noon time lunch of pizza and soft drinks, so reserve a spot in the bin. Participants may also show up the day of the event. Dedicated volunteers will sort, categorize, and weigh trash with an assist from Bill Dean who is with Edco Waste and Recycling. Facility Services and Edco are sponsors of the event. Please call Patti Holden at Extension 4614 with your reservation "for a spot in the bin."
