weather and were able to test a sixperson electric cart for use as a

Services is investigating the practicality ofpurchasing an eight-passenger electric cart to supplement
the wheelchair accessible van.
Fuel costs for Parking Services' vehicles amount to over
$1,000 each month, and the
decrease in operating costs for the
electric cart are expected to offset
its $10,000 price tag. Afinaldecision on the purchase of the Club
Car cart won't be made "for quite
some time," according to Dora
Knoblock, Director ofParking Services.

The National
Latino Research
Center Benefits
CSUSM Students,
Faculty and Community

I Amanda Bergara
PRIDE STAFF WRITER

CSUSM has established itself
as the hub for nationwide research
on Latino populations. The
National Latino Research Center
(NLRC) is a research facility
established at CSUSM in August
1999. Currently, the NLRC is conducting a program evaluation for
the Logan Heights Community
Health Center, evaluating its Teenage Pregnancy Prevention Program. The NLRC's main purposes
are to increase awareness of what
are both known and unknown
about Latino populations in the
U.S., and to help increase the
training and competence of
researchers working within these
fields.
One of the NLRC's projects is
the piloting of a Youth Research
Institute, which studies the precise issues and barriers preventing students from completing high
school. An intervention program
will be implemented for high
school students at risk of dropping out. Initially, this research
will focus on Latino youth, and
later expand to other minority and
non-minority groups. The NLRC
is also developing a proposal to
conduct a national study on the
health and well being of Latino
populations.
The NLRC's mission is "to

from patrolling for "enforcement"
to patrolling for "compliance."
"We're not out to give citations,"
said Cindi Peters, Parking Services
Field Supervisor. All written material referring to Parking Services
will reflect these changes by late
summer.
The change towards becomregarding Latinos. Data collection, translation [services] and our
other services increase our understanding of this numerically significant population," stated Soriano. The NLRC also provides
services for the research community such as needs-assessment,
surveys, web page creation for
conferences, technical assistance,
data analysis, and program evaluations.
The NLRC benefits CSUSM
students and faculty specifically
by providing internships, service
learning opportunities, research
training programs, and jobs. Students can either work as research
and program assistants or propose
their own research efforts supervised by NLRC staff. Both students and faculty can obtain referrals from the NLRC for assistance
in conducting their own research.
Faculty may obtain assistance
in securing funding for their
research if it has relevance to
Latino populations, as well as
head research projects for the
NLRC. Soriano said that a
CSUSM faculty member is currently heading a research effort
on Hispanics and mental health.
NLRC research activities span
the country, with current projects
in New Haven, Conn., Miami,
Fla. and Washington DC with
local projects that include program evaluations of communitybased agencies like the teenage
pregnancy prevention program in
Logan Heights.
The NLRC is located offcampus at 1 Civic Center Drive,
Suite 150, San Marcos. For further information, contact the
NLRC at (760) 750-3500 or

McCain said on Thursday
that he was "no longer an active

would not endorse Bush as the

The campaign between
Bush and McCain was often

Bush to endorse campaign

has challenged Bush to do the

Bush has not accepted the challenge to refuse "soft money",

Although the presidential primary was the main attraction,
California's propositions generated most of the controversies
after Tuesday's primary election.
Of the propositions on the
ballot, Prop 21, which strengthened California juvenile justice
statutes, and Prop 22, which prohibits gay majriages in the state,
were of particular concern on
campus. Prop 21 was strongly
opposed by the CSUSM MEChA
chapter, while the gay and lesbian
club, the Pride Alliance, opposed
Prop 22
Ricardo Favela, Vice President of MEChA, stated, "The
passage of 21 was expected."
When asked why the group
opposed a bill that stiffens penalties for juvenile offenders, Favela
stated, "There is absolutely no
justification to increase penalties
for only black and brown youth,
especially after the crime rate
has dropped for the seventh year
in a row."
The other controversial proposition, Prop 22, was also passed
by a large margin. Professor Don
Barrett, who on Monday passed
out flyers urging students to vote
"No on Knight", was not surprised by Prop 22 passing. Barrett stated, "The election overall
was depressing. The strong passage of 22 was depressing since
it was a pointless measure."
Although Professor Barrett
was opposed to Prop 22, he
stated, "Gay marriages may not
be in our best interests, but we
should have the rights and privileges of married couples."

Beyond
the Mat
Mike Spangler
PRIDE STAFF WRITER

"Is i t real? Is it fake? Is it a
sport? Is it entertainment?"
These questions can be asked
of Beyond the Mat (Lions Gate
Films), a movie that capitalizes
on professional wrestling's growing appeal. Yes, I said appeal. I'm
almost ashamed to admit it, but I
enjoyed the f ilm. No, I am not a
fan of professional wrestling.

In the opening sequence, the
f ilm's writer, director, and narrator, Barry Blaustein (co-writer of
The Nutty Professor and Coming
to America), asks these four questions that drive the film through
its 1-hour 43-minutes, ultimately
a behind-the-scenes look into the
personal and professional lives of
several wrestlers.
Shot over three years as a doc-

addicts; virile warriors and broken-down old men.

scalp. Foley is shown the video of
his children's cries, leading him
t o speak of retirement. I am left
with no question about the sincerity of the footage, the reactions of
Foley's children, and the reactions
of Foley himself.

At a low point in the movie,
one segment shows melodramatic,
overacting promoter Roland Alexander guiding struggling wrestlerwannabes (Mike Modest and Tony
Jones) towards the big time of the
WWF (World Wrestling. Federation). Alexander's desire to see
his face on screen obviously motivates him to sob crocodile tears
into the camera, saying, "These
guys deserve a chance."

Beyond the Mat is an
immensely entertaining documentary for its glimpses of reality.
It actually exposes the looming
doubt that hangs over many of the
details that stem from professional
wrestling's scripted antics. This
f ilm also rewards those who don't
wait for the video to come out.
The movie-going audience's participation is almost guaranteed,
as die-hard fans alternately "pop"
(wrestling jargon for an audience's
explosive reaction) and heckle at
the screen whenever a particularly
motivating monologue or stunt is
performed. There are some slowmoving parts, like when Jake "The
Snake" reunites with his daughter,
but on a 5-point scale I rate it a
solid 4.

Fortunately, the f ilm explores
more believable territory when it
follows the lives of Mick Foley,
a.k.a. "Mankind," a.k.a "Cactus
Jack," and his family. The (arguably) most clever and heartwrenching footage comes just over
an hour into the movie when
scenes of Foley being pummeled

Mona

ing

Sarah Smith
PRIDE STAFF WRITER
White trash, inane one-liners, and stupid people entwine the
dull plot ofDrowning Mona. This
movie is rated PG-13 for some
bad language, a small amount of
sex, and unbelievable violence^
The movie opens with the
drowning of Mona (played by
Bette Midler) and leaves the
viewer with nothing to look forward to. The chase to find the
murderer begins; and of course
the plot isn't simple, otherwise the
viewer would be lucky enough to
have the movie end in 20 minutes.
The tangled plot contains flashbacks, too many Yugos, and irritating sub plots, one that exposes
the mental neurosis of Rona
(played by Jamie Lee Curtis).
Casey Affleck (Ben Affleck's
little brother) is one of the main
stars of the movie, and one of

the more stupid characters. His
annoying baby voice made me
cringe throughout the entire
movie, and when off-screen, I
dreaded the moment right when
he came back on. Casey Affleck
has also played in 200 Cigarettes, Chasing Amy and Good
Will Hunting, among others. He
will also be seen in Committed,
a film scheduled for release later
this year.
The large well-known cast is
die only reason this movie has
any potential for success. Danny
DeVito and Neve Campbell join
Curtis, Affleck and Midler in a
troupe with bad southern accents.
This is thefirstproduced screenplay that Peter L. Steinfeld has
written and hopefully his last.
Director Nick Gomez has produced three other movies, none
of which were well known and
probably for good reason.
Hopefully this movie will
drown out of my memory, but this
is unlikely since myfianceeloved
it and collected several "I love my
Yugo" stickers after the show.

Prop 1 A: Damned if you do. Damned
if you don't. It's none of California's
business.
Indian gaming is a complicated issue. It brings both
prosperity and problems to Native American communities. Prop 1A has one fatalflawthough.
Whether you think that Indian gaming is good or
bad, whether you're a capitalistic extremist who believes
that the poor and oppressed are that way because they
are lazy or you're an ideological communist who wants
fair distribution of capital, IT'S NONE OF CALIFORNIA'S BUSINESS.
Dictating what Native Americans can do and what
they must do on their own land (or at least the scraps
of land the government has given back to them) is continuing the rape of the Native American people. Even
if it is within the law, it is no excuse.
Much ofthe mountain of injustices European Americans has dumped on Native Americans was done within
the law. We have already slaughtered them, taken
their homeland, destroyed much of their culture, and
attempted to strip them of their dignity. The VERY
least that the non-Native Americans can do is to respect
the remaining Native Americans and their dignity by
acknowledgeing their autonomy on their own land.
A no vote on 1A would have hurt the Native Americans, but anyone who walked away from the ballot box
after voting yes feeling that they had done a good deed
are fooling themselves and were tricked into supporting
the ongoing exploitation.
Onefinalthought to my brother and sister European
Americans: since the Native Americans are 'Native',
that makes u s'Alien' Americans. It's something to keep
in mind when judging other more recent aliens.

�Dear Editors:
I had to write regarding the
recent remarks made by ASI
Vice President Robert Radovich. I am really not sure where he
gets off calling anyone ignorant
with the ASI's BLATANT disregard for the governing rules.
Last year, case in point, when
I asked a member, "why did
you give Christmas bonuses?"
he replied that "it's a job, everyone gets a Christmas bonus." I
am wondering in which fairy
tale THAT exists! Let me point
out a few things that may interest anyone who may care:
-In the winter session, ASI
fees are $45 or roughly 14%
of the total fees for taking one
class.
-For Spring 2000, you paid
$35 in "recreation fees"(I mean,
aren't video games recreation,
why is ASI paying for that??),
$50 in ASI fees, and another $20
in student union fees...contrast
that to local community colleges where paying for the "ASI
savings" only costs you $10-20
(voluntarily) per semester and
you get discounts on things you
USE, like the BOOKSTORE
(5-10% in fact). Student Representation at these colleges is $1
(Mesa)
-How many people really
benefit from free BBQ
lunches?? Personally, I'd rather
have some of my money back
and go to the Dome as I don't
eat hot dogs.
-How many people would
rather have a new video game
over having some of these fees
back? I don't have time to play
games..
-I work so I can't take kickboxing or yoga or attend these
concerts, other things I don't
use...
I don't want to criticize
those students who serve on the
ASI who really do care, but let's
not lose sight of the fact WE
ALL ARE FORCED to pay the
fees while FEW reap the benefits.. Honestly, if you really
want to make an impact, drop
some of your fees and let people
buy ASI stickers for discounts
if they WANT them, then you'll
be forced to work with a REAL
budget rather than 1 million dollars to use as you see fit.
"WE ARE SAVING YOU
MONEY" is not what is happening for most students, it's "WE
ARE TAKING YOUR MONEY
AND BLOWING IT."

The advertising campaign
for Prop 22 set a new standard
of contemptibility. To have a
teacher say she wants to send
a message to her students that
m arriage is only between a man
and woman is asinine. A teacher's r esponsibility is to teach
acceptance and to celebrate d ifferences, not to segregate and
dehumanize c ertain members of
the population. If you were a student in that t eacher's class and
she told you homosexuality is

If you voted yes on Proposition 22 you are not protecting the
