C SUSM S tudents
to Vote on
Student Union
As student enrollment has
increased, so has the need for
more parking, Research studies,
involving parking and enrollment, have been conducted at
other California State Universities, and were used as a measuring tool to reflect the needs
of CSUSM.
One temporary solution this
semester was stack parking.
Many students feel that it has
been a success, but worry that
it is ending this week. Yesenia
Castro used stack parking the
first week of the semester and
said "I felt a little worried about
using it at first, but after parking a few times I became comfortable" She had heard other
people express t heir fears upon
getting items removed without
their knowledge. She became
reassured one day, when she
found that she had left her
checkbook in her car and nothing was touched.
CSUSM
In
addition,
Parking
Services painted
roughly sixty more stalls as
a temporary solution to help
alleviate some of the drudgery
of parking.
Do students really need a
$7.4 million Student Union?
The University Student Union
Advisory Board (USUAB)
thinks we do and they are asking
students to help pay for it. Full
time students at CSUSM • currently pay $20 per semester in
student fees, while part time students pay only $10. On October
9 and 10 students will have the
opportunity to vote on whether
or not they are willing to increase
their student fees to $50 (for
full and part time students). The
increase would take effect in
Fall 2001 to help pay for the
proposed building.

According to Andy Schick,
Parking Services, the 60 new
stalls

were the direct result of increased
enrollment; contrary to rumor that
it was due to frequent car accidents.
Other parking changes include

Referendum passes, construction on The Clarke Field House/
University Student Union would
begin in 2001 and could be completed as early as Spring 2003.
The planned facility includes a
gymnasium, a weight/exercise
room, men's and women's locker
rooms and a sports medicine
facility. Conference rooms, student government offices and club
meeting rooms are also a part of
the proposed project.
President Alex Gonzalez
addressed A.S.I. at Friday's
board meeting in an attempt to
get ASI's blessing. ASI members
seemed confident that their support would increase the referendum's chances of passing.
"We need desperately a place
for students to congregate," said
President Gonzalez, "what we
have here is a positive opportunity to build a Student Union."
Hesitant to support the referendum at first, A.S.I, quickly
turned the discussion to their
concerns on future rent and
utilities. Robin Milch, A.S.I.
Executive Vice President of
External Affairs, told the president "So far, the information
given to ASI has been inaccurate." Milch wanted assurance
from Gonzalez that A.S.I, would
not end up "...getting burned
with rent." A.S.I. was also concerned that not many students
seemed to know about the referendum. In the end, however,
A.S.I, voted unanimously to support the referendum.

This past July the CSU Board
of Trustees approved lowering
the minimum graduation requirement from 124 to 120 units.
In a press release from CSU,
Chancellor Charles Reed states
that "This revision will help students graduate sooner. The new
requirements are consistent with
most universities in the nation
and just make sense."
Based on a normal course
load of 15 units per semester,
the 124-unit requirement leaves
students in a four-year program,
four units short of graduation.
With implementation of the
120-unit requirement, Trustee
Ralph Pesqueira believes that
this policy will make it easier
for students to graduate in fours
years Or possibly even three
years by attending school year
round.
Before celebrating, CSUSM
students need to be aware that
the lowering of units for graduation is a baseline from which all
majors build upon. Many majors
will still require more than the
minimum 120 units required for
graduation.
Every academic program is
reviewed on a five-year cycle.
The review process allows
departments to evaluate the number of units required in keeping
students competitive not only
with the demands of the job
market, but also with students
graduating from other universities in the same field. The fiveyear evaluation process means
that gradual implementation of
the 120-unit requirement will
most likely not affect current
students in the system.
CSUSM President Alexander
Gonzalez stated "that majors
exceeding the 120 unit minimum
require approval before they can
be implemented."
Gonzalez went on to state
that accountability of unit
requirements is based on the
fact that the CSU strives for a
balance between training for the
work force and educating wellrounded citizens.

Bombarded by the rhetoric
f rom what is being called the
most glamorized presidential race
in U.S. history, many San
Diegans' have l eft their local concerns and alliances by the wayside as they prepare t o choose
who will lead the country.
However, as San Marcos resident and city council h opeful,
Mike Sannella says, the most
important decisions a re the ones
being m ade in your local community.
" I j oined t his race because
I have the desire t o help build
a healthy community," said
Sannella. "My w ife and I are both
four-year residents and alumnus
of Cal State San Marcos. We love
the city and i t's a place where we
would like to raise our kids, but
then there are also some issues
that need to b e addressed."
Sannella, 25, is r unning a
grassroots campaign in an e ffort

the consumer, but is costly for

The plan that Sannella refers
t o is a set of pro-growth ideals
that he intends to apply in San
Marcos if elected.
O n the top of h is agenda
for San Marcos, Sannella says
he will address the community's
growing t raffic concerns. " I am

Sannella. "Widening the roads
would b e the most obvious
option, however, that can't always

encouraging carpooling, building more bike lanes and encouraging city b us use."
The second area of concern
for Sannella is San M arcos'
stance on business. Realizing
t he t ax base that retail provides,
the candidate says that he will
encourage prosperity by welcoming the addition of planned retail
shops and centers.
Some of t he projects that
Sannella endorses include the

Susanne Green, Executive
Director of the USUAB, who
also spoke to A.S.I., is hoping
that students will take the initiative t o f ind out more about the

The USUAB -has posted a

" Our university breeds diversity

Sannella, " I t hink that when you

Gray Davis' deferred utility
payment solution, f laws in
California's energy deregulation
system were investigated last
week in San Diego during two
federal hearings.
Although no f irm conclusions have emerged f rom the
hearings, other than the realization that residents are indeed
paying too much for electricity
(utility bills doubled and t ripled), there were a number of
f ingers pointed:
at SDG&E
for not seeking the most a ffordable prices for consumers, at the
Public Utilities Commission for
not allowing SDG&E t o sign
cheaper, long-term contract with
suppliers, at suppliers for taking
advantage of a f lawed and f ledging de-regulated energy purchasing system, and at the state's
deregulation law itself, including
the state legislators who-passed
it. Investigations are still in progress.
Meanwhile, the new proposition to r un high-voltage transmission power lines f rom Riverside
county to San Diego county to
compensate for the period of
energy shortage before new generators are completed was p roposed b y SDG&E and the state's
top-power managing agency
(ISO).
The plan would cost h undreds of millions of dollars and
incur other environmental, residential, and aesthetic costs that
have consumer groups, environmental regulators, and area o fficials and residents protesting and
demanding to see proof that t his
is the most effective solution.
The high cost of living continues to beset residents at home,
work, and now on the road.
Recent rising gasoline p rices show no signs o f abating.
Some attention has b een d eflected f rom deregulation t o international gasoline issues including
OPEC production and the recent

30th, was one second behind
Garritson, and was followed by
MacDonald who was in the 38th
spot.
While the women's team
trailed a bit, they also finished
ahead of some good schools
including USC, UCSD, Long
Beach State, and Cal State
Fullerton.
The men's team, winners
of last year's Aztec Invitational
in the "Open Division," found
that
running
in
the
"Invitational Division" was a
much tougher task.
By the time the men began
the last race of the morning,
the heat had. definitely become
a factor in their performance.
Scott cautioned his runners to
abbreviate their normal warmup routine and to stay in the
shade until race time.
Brian Sullivan led the young
squad in a race that ended with
James Adams nearly collapsing
f rom heat exhaustion.
There were wet spots along
the course, and by the time the
men ran the fourth race, the
footing became unstable in some
areas along the course. This made
for generally slow times for all
the competitors.
Sullivan came in 18th place
with a time of 26 minutes and
50.5 seconds, followed by Adams
in 44th place and Marcus
Chandler in 68th place out of
150 runners. The men finished
in 10th place out of the 15 team
field.
According to Assistant
Coach Joe Keating, running
against the big schools is necessary. "They have to compete
against the stronger teams to get
better," said Keating.

C ross-Country Team
Working Together
By: Steve Compian
Pride Staff Writer
Running is an individual
sport, right? Don't try telling
that to the CSUSM cross-country team. Visit the track around
3:30 and you'll find no individuals out there, rather everything
(push-ups, sit-ups, and stretching exercises) is done as a team.
An observer will notice that
these athletes are having f un,
even finding laughter while exerk rising in 90- degree heat. These
runners are serious about their
warm-ups, but they can also
enjoy themselves.
Watch the team just before
the start of a race and you'll
see them run to the starting
line together. After the race is
over, the words "cool down, cool
down," can be heard, a reminder
that these runners must gradually return their bodies to normal operating temperature. A
group of racers will also jog
off to facilitate the cool down,
but always together. This is all
part of Head Coach Steve Scott's
model for success.
In talking with Coach Scott,
the moral of The Tortoise and
The Hare comes to -mind—it's
steady progress that will win
the race. Scott's philosophy is
to have his runners strong and
running their best races at the
national level in November.
"We don't want them to peak
too early," Scott said. It is a
philosophy that paid off handsomely in 1999, the team's first
year of competition. It's also the
reason that athletes are transferring to CSUSM.
Two of CSUSM's transfer
students exemplify the highs and
lows of choosing which college
to attend,
Senior James Adams attended high school at the foot of the
Julian Mountains in Ramona.
The Pride
Sports
He transferred to CSUSM from
California Baptist University so
that he could learn from Scott.
"My high school coach and Scott
have been friends for a while,"
said Adams, when asked how he
learned of Coach Scott. Adams
arrived with solid credentials,
but felt that Coach Scott (who
holds the American record in the
mile run) would give him the
best shot at helping him break
the four-minute barrier in the
mile run.
Along with the "mountain
man," came a CSUSM junior,
Cara Rumble, who attended
Orange Glen High School in
Escondido. Rumble is another
accomplished runner who felt
that being coached by Steve Scott
was too tempting to pass up.
She left Concordia University
in Irvine to attend CSUSM.

Rumble, "I liked the way that he
trained and I enjoyed the way he

Both Adams and Rumble
took different routes that eventually brought them to the same
team. They enjoy being at
CSUSM, but their initial attraction was to join a program
coached by Scott. Adams and
Rumble also joined the CSUSM

CSUSM Golf "Tees Up" for New Season
By: Steve Compian
Pride Staff Writer
The Cal State San Marcos
Golf team is ready to tee up
for the new season. Coach Fred
Hanover and his team travel to
Belton, Texas this week to compete in the University of Mary
Hardin-Baylor Tournament. The
five man, five woman team is
looking to continue the winning
ways established by last year's
team.
In only its second season
of competition, CSUSM's men's
golf team finished in 11th place
and the women finished 8th
among all NAIA (National
Association of Intercollegiate
Athletics) schools.
While winning on the college level is new to his team, it is
not a new experience for Coach
Hanover.
Hanover twice led Cal State
San Bernardino to third place
finishes in the NCAA Division
II Tournament. His formula for
success involves recruiting players who know more than just
how to swing a club.
Hanover expects his athletes
to be competitive academically
as well as physically, thus allowing him to focus on coaching
them and not worrying about
whether they will be eligible to
play. Hanover also looks for a
competitive spirit in all of his
players.
Three of the new recruits for
the team include Tony Sellers, a
transfer from Pima Community
College, and freshmen Nick
Mitchell from De La Salle High
School in Fairfield, and Jack
Spreng from St. Maria Goretti
High School in Maryland.
Hanover fans their competitive fires by making them try
out for the team, and that's just
the beginning. Since only five
players per team (women and
men) can travel to tournaments,
his linksters have to battle each
other for the right to represent
CSUSM; that competition is
extremely close this year. "It's
coming right down to the wire,"
said Hanover.
How does this year's tearh
look? Hanover believes that they
will be solid again. "It'll take
a little time to develop, but by
the end of the season, we should
be right up there,"said Hanover.

The Trojan

Pride Staff Writer
Never before have I left a
play feeling so uncertain about
the production.
Marianne McDonald's modern adaptation of The Trojan
Women opened on Sunday,
September 3, at The Old Globe
Theater in front of a f ull house.
Euripides, a Greek dramatist, wrote the original play by
the same name. Euripides' play
tells the story of the fall of
Ancient Troy to the Greeks in
416 BC. However, McDonald's
modern adaptation, directed by
Seret Scott, takes a look at war
from a different perspective.
Talk of smart bombs and
SCUD missiles are some of
the clues as to the direction of
changes from the original text.

Pride Staff Writer
On Saturday, September 16,
approximately 2000 people
crowded into a small, oak-filled
natural amphitheater to attend
the first day of the two-day
Julian Bluegrass Festival. With
performances by four remarkably talented bluegrass bands
and the combination of warm,
sunny weather in the mountains,
the festival forced a grin upon
every attendee's face, merely
proving Steve Martin's infamous
comment, "Hell, it becomes pretty difficult to feel teary-eyed
listening t o banjo music."
The first day of the festival
began with an assortment of
competitions from beginning
banjo to professional fiddle.
Probably the highlight of the
competition occurred when an
eight-year-old girl performed the
ubiquitous Turkey in the Straw.
Most of the spectators were
in awe of the youngster's performance, not because of her
age and relaxed presence, but
because she revealed the spirit
of the festival: the timelessness
of bluegrass music.
The genre has an unknown
element that becomes addictive,
and forces the performer or listener to consistently examine
the ageless art form. After the
competitions concluded several
bands performed, including
Highway 52, Silverado, and Lost
Highway.
Conspicuously talented, none
of the acts created the fervor
or enjoyment spawned by the
Laurel Canyon Ramblers This
particular band—Herb Pederson
on banjo, Michael Witcher on
dobro, Kenny Blackwell on mandolin, Bill Bryson on bass, and
Roger Reed on guitar—mixed
the spirit of rock and roll into
bluegrass.
Flying through various standards and numerous originals,
Laurel Canyon Ramblers eventually played gospel, rock, reggae and straightforward bluegrass songs; making the band
enormously different from most
of the acts performing at the
festival, whom never stray away
from certain established boundaries of traditional bluegrass.
Eloquently mixing talented musicianship with stellar three-part
harmonies, the Laurel Canyon
Ramblers literally stole the show
at the first day of the Julian
Bluegrass Festival.
Interestingly, maybe because
the Laurel Canyon Ramblers
were the major act for the bluegrass festival's first day, many
in the crowd left the amphitheater after their performance and
meandered through the parking
lot, where stunning players gathered in circles to jam.
No pedestrian with an instru-
ment case becomes safe wandering through the crowd of players: even yours truly became
involved in a humorous version
of Bill Monroe's Working On a
Building, complete with vocals
and jaw-dropping banjo playing
by two teenagers.
After watching several
groups perform, one can become
mesmerized by the technical
ability exhibited by so many
people. Whether banjo, fiddle,
bass, guitar, or mandolins, a
plethora of great, obscure performers displayed their skills.
Upon leaving at six o'clock in
the evening,T realized the depth
that music is capable of. Most of
the music featured on assorted
radio-stations only equals one
percent of the total music created in our world. Interestingly,
bluegrass may be one of many
forms that will never die and
will continue to gather listeners
searching for a simple form of
music, which, like the wind, carries the thoughts and feelings of
lost years.
Bluegrass music has a long
history, beginning with the music
of Scotland and Ireland circa
1600. As the genre evolved, bluegrass added elements of jazz,
blues, and hillbilly mountain
music. While the common vision
by society concerning bluegrass
originated from the banjo-playing boy in "Deliverance," the
music has more sophistication
and certainly a higher technical
fortitude than most musical
genres.
At one moment a bluegrass
group may sing a gospel number
like I Hear a Voice Calling and
then immediately launch into a
breakneck version of the popular fiddle tune Red Haired Boy;
playing as fast as many punk
bands. Such a variety of material and speed within the idiom
makes bluegrass enjoyable for
those who love music.
r-
express two very different types
of nakedness.
The
entire
production
seemed to flow nicely, but each
of the characters had a moment
when his or her performance
was unbelievable. I. left the
theater anxious to get to the
ladies room to hear other people
talk about what they had seen,
yet nobody talked about it. It
may have been mediocre direction or an awkward script, but
there was something that really
held the play back from being
great. Yet, I cannot say that I
did not enjoy the performance.

Candide:
B ernstein's C omic O pera
By: Nathan Fields
Pride Staff Writer
I have never seen opera
so socially critical while retaining genuinely contagious humor.
Candid in its shocking comedy
and flaunting offenses against
everyone who matters, Leonard
Bernstein's operatic adaptation
of Voltaire's satiric and philosophically profound novel,
Candide, inspires ironic and disturbing Pulp-Fiction-tyye laughter.
A pleasing combination of
Scenefrom Candide
flawless orchestration, talented
actors and singers, and lively
stage production, this comic
opera, playing
the Casa Del
Prado Theater in Balboa Park,
offers Bernstein's successful
opera in the 100th anniversary
year of its composer's life.
Unlike most romantically
nauseating operas, this sardonic
tale of a young man's mid-eighteenth-century journey through
Germany, Spain, Turkey, France,
colonial South America, and
Italy,

Candide
» Continued from Page 5
chronicles his process of
experientially unlearning the
pretentious and naive bourgeois philosophies of popular
enlightenment thinkers.
Scenes of warfare, slavery,
religious hypocrisy, murder,
violent rape, sexually transmitted diseases, large-scale misogyny and racism may make some
, viewers consider the deeper
philosophical implications of
Voltaire's poker-faced comedy
as social analysis.
On the surface a witty,
bantering tale of misadventure, Candide reveals itself to
actually be a . savage, satiric
thrust at the philosophy of
"Optimism" (the play's alternate title); which proclaims that
nationwide disasters and individual sufferings are both just
part of a cosmic plan that is
essentially good.
Voltaire was not easily prepared to excuse the world's
vices quite so easily, nor would
he encourage people to accept
evil as fate without trying to
prevent it or fight it.
Candide also represents
curiously accurate, yet damaging caricatures of the
European intelligencia, the
Catholic Church, Judaism,
Women, Men, Europeans, royalty, and everyone else.
Although published in 1759,
the contemporary applications
of Candide seem very close at
hand. In a time where there
seems to be an abundance of
pseudo:philosophical explanations for manmade injustice
and intellectual copout acquiescence disguised as wisdom,
Candide seems to shout,
"Action is necessary! All is
not well, but all things can be
bettered!" and then laugh at its
own candidness.
If you like opera, see
Candide. If you don't like
opera, see Candide. This comic
opera ends next weekend.
Remaining performances
are Friday, September 22 at
8pm, Saturday, September 23
at 2pm, and Sunday, September

Candide is performed at

The Barnstorming
By: Melanie Addington
Pride Editor
The Film
:
How could an independent
film possibly compete with
Hollywood blockbusters? "After
this, anything is possible," states
Kevin Jordan, director of Smiling
Fish and Goat on Fire. This
movie, being one of the greatest
romantic comedies released this
year, made with a budget of only
$40,000.
The film stars real-life brothers, Derick Martini (Chris), and
Steven Martini (Tony), as brothers helping each other on their
way to finding true love.
When they were born, their
half Native-American grandmother nicknamed free-spirited
Tony as Smiling Fish and serious
Chris as Goat on Fire. After their
parents die on the 405 freeway,
Chris raises Tony in their impoverished house in Los Angeles.
Tony is a fun-loving actor
who enjoys many women that
come his way, especially his
pseudo-girlfriend, who runs
screaming out of the house after
finding a ribbed condom that
she did not buy him. Later he
meets a single mom (played by
Christa Miller from The Drew
Carey Show), who fate seems to
destine as his true love.
Chris, Tony's brother, works
as an accountant and is trying
to salvage a dead-end relationship with his high school sweetheart Alison (played by Amy
Hathaway).
Interwoven into the comedy
is a beautiful story about Clive
Henderson, that is based on a
real movie sound man that director Kevin Jordan met. Clive
(brilliantly performed by Bill
Henderson) is a ninety-year-old
At the pre-screening of
Smiling Fish and Goat on Fire in
Hillcrest Thursday night, director
Kevin Jordan, and stars Derick
and Steven Martini, and Bill
Henderson discussed the f ilm
with the audience. Derick stated, "the purpose is to meet
the audience because it is hard
to compete with Hollywood,"
and Jordan jumped in, stating,
"we are doing this grassroots
style!" Bill Henderson informed
the audience that in the begin-

romantic who tells Chris amazing stories about his deceased
wife and the motion pictures
they worked on in their youth.
Eventually, Clive helps Chris
along the path to finding true
love when he meets a gorgeous
Sicilian woman (Anna), at a
Christmas party.

best independent films I have
seen to date. Although several
scenes between the brothers have
lulls in the conversation, it works
for the film by giving the audience a sense of reality in their
relationship.
ning of movie theatres, they
called this barnstorming."
After winning the Toronto
Film Festival Award and Best
Film at the Milan Film festival,
the trio (Jordan and Martini
Brothers) signed a deal for two
more films with much larger
budgets. The key to making this
film work with a small budget
was trying to get as much as
possible for free, and "get a lot
of favors," according to Derick
Martini.
The three grew up together
in New York, and "we really
get each other," states Steven
Martini. This made a world of
difference on the set because
there were no creative differences and the dynamics of the
set remained very professional
but everyone had a real sense
of trust. Henderson piped in by
stating that it also helped to
have "this director [that] loves
actors.''
When asked how much
money they will make on this
film, Jordan jokingly said, "at
least fourteen dollars."
One member of the audience
asked the filmmakers, "What
motivated them to write this
script?" Derick stated, it is a
story they wanted to tell and
wanted to have as a reflection of
true life; they even went so far as
to say that Steven was really hit
in the head with a toaster (just
as depicted in the film).
Another audience member
asked, "Since these characters'
experiences are similar to your
true-life experiences, how many
scenes are ad-libbed or did you
follow the script?" The Martini
brothers chuckled, and Derick
replied, "a lot of it was
improvisational, but they
knew what we had to get
out of each scene."
One woman came up
to Derick after the discussion, and with a concerned look, asked if
their parents were still
living. Martini immediately responded, "Oh
yes, they are quite alive...
divorced...but still good friends.
We had to take a lot of flack
for killing them off in the film
though."
Smiling Fish and Goat on
Fire opened in theatres on
September 15, and is playing
exclusively
in
Hillcrest
Landmark Theatres. This movie
marks Kevin Jordan's directorial
debut; he is also a co-writer with
life-long friends, the Martini
brothers. The f ilm is 90 minutes
long and is rated R.

�C ameron C rowe is Almost Famous
By: Jennifer Miller
Pride Staff Writer
Filmed partly in the gas-lamp
district of San Diego, Almost
Famous is a fantastic, brilliantly
mastered f ilm written and directed by Cameron Crowe. Almost
Famous is Crowe's f irst movie
since his blockbuster hit Jerry
Maguire, and it proves t o be a
captivating, intelligently written
script f ull of laughs and tears.
This semi-autobiographical
f ilm was written during a pivotal
time in the history of rock and
roll. Crowe sets his story in 1973,
in San Diego, and chronicles the
f unny and often poignant coming of age of 15-year-old William
Miller, whose intelligence and
genuine enthusiasm lands him
the gig of a lifetime.
Like his young protagonist,
Crowe also got his start in journalism when he landed his first
j ob at the age of 15 as a journalist
for Rolling Stone Magazine.
One of Crowe's most i nfluential friends and mentors was
the legendary rock critic Lester
Bang, whose character offers
advice and friendly words of
experience to the main character
William.
While still in his teens,
Crowe, an avid music f an, profiled many of the era's most
Scene from Almost Famous
influential artists and toured
with bands across the U.S. "I
didn't want it to be like some
of those semi-autobiographical
stories that glorify the writer
because the truth is* I never felt
like the center of any room I
was in at the time. I was an
observer. That's what the character of William Miller is—he's
an observer."
William is befriended by his
idol, Lester Bangs (played by
Philip Seymour Hoffman from
Boogie Nights) and l ands his
first assignment, an interview
with Black Sabbath.
At the concert, he also
befriends the up-and-coming
fictional band, Stillwater^ led
by the charismatic lead guitarist, Russell Hammond (Billy
Crudup), and lead singer Jeff
Bebe (Jason Lee). William also
meets a group who call themselves the "Band Aids," led by the
beautiful and bewitching Penny
Lane (Kate Hudson). When
Rolling Stone offers William a
huge opportunity to write a cover
story of Stillwater, he joins the

Sunny Day Real
Estate Releases The
Rising
By: Adam Bailey
Pride Staff Writer
Sunny Day Real Estate falls off
pace with their fourth and latest
album, The Rising Tide. Having
recently switched labels f rom Sub
Pop Records to Time Bomb
Recordings, this Seattle-based band
offers u p a more complex, melodically arranged CD to date.
From the very moment fans bring
this CD home, open it up, and read
the liner notes, they will notice the
difference right away. They will
notice a much more complex set of
word arrangements and a greater
emphasis being placed upon the
words of each song as the catalyst
for this album's music. A change that
is noble, but ultimately falls short of
the intended result when listening to
the finished musical product.

Tide
The f irst two songs on this CD,
Killed by an Angel and One are not
much different f rom Sunny Day's
previous endeavors under Sub Pop's
production. Fairly stripped down
by today's standards, these two
songs,' emotionally-charged aggression compels listeners to listen to the
rest of the album.
However, a fter listening to the
first two songs on the album, the
mode takes an almost 180-degree
turn. The album f rom the third
selection on is much more complex,
revealing a much more heavily produced and textured sound. A sound
that works some of the time, like
the singles Rain Song or Faces in
Disguise. Both songs invoke some
passion with soulful melodies and
the bowstrings' melancholy sound.
However, the sound really grows old
and tiresome a fter so many monotoous selections.

Frances McDormand plays
Elaine, William's mother, and
she adds family hostility. Her
relentless advice and presence
scares everyone she comes in
contact with. "Don't do d rugs!"
Elaine says redundantly.
Soon William becomes part
of the inner circle of the band he
idolizes, disregarding the caution
from his mother and Lester Bangs
who warn him not to befriend the
bands. William comes of age as
he observes the chaos and on-the-

road lifestyle of Stillwater. The
friendships that William makes
are genuine^ and heartfelt as he
also falls hard for Penny Lane,
the passionate and adoring fan.
William is soon f aced with
the task of honest and unmerciful journalism as he writes the
cover story for Rolling Stone.
Confused and anxious, William
sets out to tell the truth about the
band and its members who are
now his friends.
I laughed throughout the
entire movie and felt an instant
connection with the characters.
Everyone will be entertained and
mesmerized with this film and
its characters.
The movie's soundtrack
includes compositions by Peter
Frampton and Nancy Wilson
(a member of the band Heart
and who is also Crowe's wife).
Interlaced with blasts of Led
Zeppelin, Black Sabbath and
other classic rock bands, the
music is brilliant.
Almost Famous is now playing at theaters, and I recommend this f ilm to everyone. The
movie is rated R because of brief
nudity, drug scenes, and language. Almost Famous is a mustsee movie that will turn into
a rock-n-roll classic and is one
movie I can't wait to buy on
DVD.

What if no one voted?
By Steve Compian
Pride Staff Writer
What happened if there was
an election and no one voted?
With the general election scheduled for November, I decided to
ponder the question. Knowing
the history of voter participation in this country, when barely
sixty per cent of all eligible voters who actually cast a ballot
constitute a high water mark,
I wanted to ask, "What would
happen if no one voted?"
I understand that this is a
purely hypothetical question, but
if we can struggle to understand
why one person gets booted off
of Survivor Island or why the
San Diego Chargers can't outscore the San Diego Padres then
it may be a question worth pondering.
Here's a scenario: The general election to decide the next
President of the United States
has just occurred and no one
voted. The power of voter enthusiasm has waned into blackout
proportions. We saw the names
of all the candidates and decided that they sucked, so we just
bailed out of the voting process
all together. What would occur?
Letter to the
Editors
I want to take this opportunity
to thank the Pride, in particular Nicole Moreno for the front
page article of the Pride titled,
"What about the Women?
This is truly a success story.
This week the list went from
having 6 to 19 women! I am
excited to have such a good
response!
The women will be attending
a team meeting sometime next
week. They will each receive
phone calls to coordinate the
meeting.

More specifically, what
mechanism for the continuation
of democracy would kick in?
Would the old President simply
remain in office as the undefeated champion or do the polls
remain open until someone votes,
as in sudden death overtime in a
sporting event? Our constitution
must address this somehow. I
didn't really know the answer,
so I decided to engage the help
of my fellow students.
should a person who wasn't popular enough to swing one popular vote be President?)
Most of them began with
the predictable, "It would never
happen." The question is not if
it will happen, but rather what
are the ramifications of such an
event occurring? It would also
be fair to clarify that this is not a
scientific poll. It falls more into
the "Daddy what i f..." category.
Wendy (Sociology Major): "I
don't know, maybe they'd have
to vote again."
Here are the responses of
students I spoke to at the Dome:
George (Business Major):
"Wouldn't Clinton just stay
President? (No, he's at the end
of two terms).
Ryan (Mathematics Major):
"Gore would automatically
become President, because he's
the current Vice President."
(Hmmm. Interesting thought, but
Diana (Part-time Student):
"That's why we have an Electoral
College." (O k. we have an
Electoral College and then
what?) No response.
Patricia (Education Major):
"Maybe they'd have to do it
[election] over?"
Rachel (Women's Studies):
"No idea."
It's probably not unusual that
so many of us don't have a
clue as to what would happen,
because the chances of such an
event ever occurring is so remote
that it is regarded as pure fiction.
Could it be, however, that we
have never given the topic much
thought because there is always
the security of believing that
someone else will vote? And
what if that mysterious someone doesn't do what we had
assumed? Then, where would
that leave us?

New Budget Gets
Academic Year Off to
Good Start
By Dr. Charles B. Reed
Chancellor, California State
University
I want to take this opportunity
to welcome all of you to a new
academic year at the California
State University, especially those
students who have enrolled at a
CSU campus for the first time this
fall. We are very proud to have
all of you as members of the CSU
family.
I know that in a place as large
as the 23-campus CSU system,
it can be difficult to find up-todate information about our system.
That's why I hope that occasional
columns like these can provide you
with some of this important information.
I'm proud to report that our
year is off to a good start already,
thanks to a landmark budget signed
by Gov. Davis over the summer.
This is one of the best budgets
the CSU has ever seen. Our total
general fund budget, for 2000/01 is
approximately $2.5 billion; and the
general fund increase totals $333.7
million, our largest increase ever.
The governor and the legislature
have also passed new legislation
to increase financial aid for many
more students in California next
year.
What does this mean for the
CSU? It means that our top two
priorities — access for students and
compensation for employees — will
be funded as follows:
Access — The budget includes a
$73.1 million general fund increase
to accommodate the 12,577 additional full-time equivalent students
expected to enroll during this academic year. Our system is expected
to continue to grow at this incredible pace, taking on a total of about
130,000 new students by 2010.
Compensation — The budget
includes $113.2 million for a six
percent compensation pool for all
CSU employees. This continues to
help close the faculty salary gap.
In addition, the budget includes
funds for year-round operations,
community service learning, CSU
Channel Islands, CSU Stanislaus
Stockton Center, the Coachella
Valley Center of CSU San
Bernardino, and technology training for teachers. It also supports
the California Workforce Initiative,
which funds high-cost programs in
such fields as nursing, agriculture,
engineering, computer science, and
the biological sciences.
This budget will allow us to
continue to uphold our priorities of
serving students, assisting the public schools, improving and expanding teacher preparation, eliminating the need for remedial education, and making the most of new
advances in technology. It will also
allow us to add a new focus on preparing students for the workforce
of California.
If you would like to learn more
about our budget, you can read
about it on our web site at http://

general information about the system, you can go directly to our
home page, www.calstate.edu.
I wish you best of luck in
your studies, and I look forward to
visiting each of your campuses in
the coming academic year.
C liches - Paradoxes
of C onventional W isdom
By: Bryan Clark
Pride Staff Writer
I'm tired of them. I'm tired
of hearing them all the time.
People too often use them without knowing what they mean.
I'm talking about cliches.
Far too often people cling
to the "conventional wisdom" of
cliches. But most people don't
realize that cliches, while meant
to be uplifting and truthful, constantly contradict themselves.
I have a quick list of cliches
that really capture the need for
truth and inspiration, yet when
presented with others, unfortunately cancel out the message.
Enjoy:
"Always make a good first
impression" versus "Never judge
a book by its cover".
"Life is hard" versus "It's as
easy as 1-2-3".
"Never give up" versus "If you
can't beat them, join them".
now or never".
"We always hurt the ones we
love".
"Expect great things" versus "Better safe than sorry" versus
"Don't count your chickens until "Risking life and limb".
they've hatched".
"Better late than never" versus
"Don't give up your day job" "Time is of the essence".
versus "Follow your dreams".
"Two wrongs don't make a right"
"The best things in life are f ree" versus "Who's to say what is
versus "Nothing is free in life". right or wrong?"
"Life is short" versus "Live long "Love hurts" versus "No pain,
and prosper".
no gain."
"Life will get better as you go "Free love" versus "It's a labor

"There is safety in numbers"
"There is no time like the pres- versus "Your better off alone".
ent" versus "Time will tell".
"Its hope against hope" versus
"Take it one step at a time" "When worse comes to worse".
versus "It's all or nothing",
"Never look a gift horse in the
"All good things come to those mouth" versus "Look before you
who wait" versus "Don't hesitate leap".
or all is lost".
"Being in love means never hav"Bide your time" versus "It's ing to say you're sorry" versus
HAVE AN OPINION? SUBMIT A LETTER TO THE EDITORS TO
"Crime doesn't pay" versus "Illgotten gains".
So the next time someone
tries to give you some "conventional wisdom", don't take it.
Do the opposite and see what
happens.
Look the g ift horse in the
mouth; see if it has cavities. If
someone tells you, "Don't worry
be h appy" immediately scream
at them and freak the hell out!
Crime doesn't pay? There are
more criminals t han days of the
year!
If they tell you everything is
going to be all right, go home,
pack your things, and move far,
FAR away because it won't be
all right for a very, very long
time.
I guess I could be overreacting to all these conflicting and
I should take it with a grain
of salt, but maybe I should just
stand up and face the facts.

to say, "The students voted on it, it wasn't done
without their approval." I really don't think

Consider how cheap it is to go to school here
compared to anywhere else locally. Hiition is less
than $900/semester. Books cost about the same
as anywhere else. We don't have to burn a tank
of gas every day driving through freeways as
congested as 15, 8, and 5. We all have a free
exercise program too, just park in the lower lots
off Barham and walk up the stairs every day.
When you put all that together, along with
the convenience factor of having a university in
North County where most CSUSM students live,
you see we have a great deal going here. Even

By: Steve Compian
we're supposed to
look beyond the
regurgitated, spoon-fed party line, and ask the
hard questions in order to unveil t he truth.
The issue here isn't about buying new jock
straps for the team or painting a mural on the side
of a building. It's about spending money.
When you're old enough and have dolled-out
enough taxes to pay for every imaginable outhouse ever built, maybe you'll be in a better
position to understand what it is I have to say.
We really need to think about what it is we're
going to do.
I'm not against building or growth, but before
people go to the polls, we need to clarify a few
things. First, the increase in student fees is not
easily reversible. As soon as the university gets
the yea vote, those bulldozers that we've been seeing around campus are going to dig some holes.
Also, the fee increase will not decrease after the
structure is paid for; it will remain FOREVER,
except when it is scheduled to increase again. If it
doesn't pass, we can always try again later.

of dealing with SDSU. It will still be only $50.
SDSU students pay $142.
I hear people saying, "Well if it's so cheap
why would we want to make it more expensive?"
Let me ask these people this: Did you really
think that students on a new, growing campus
wouldn't be hit up for fee increases at some point?
I would accuse anyone who didn't think that
would happen of being naive. It's inevitable that
we would have to foot the bill for some things.
The State would never pay for every amenity that
we students want.
Don't worry if money's tight and you're getting financial aid. The fee increase gets factored
into that equation. For the rest of us, saving
$30/semester to make up for the difference is not
so tough. Just cut that $3 cup of coffee out of
your morning ritual one day a week. Or the next
time someone asks you "Do you want fries with
that?" just say, "No." Maybe stick to domestic
beer instead of import. Wait, nevermind, we have
to draw the line somewhere.
The point is, $30 for something that will make
life better for all concerned is a bill worth paying.
And if future students are really pissed off that
we did this to them, they can vote to reverse it.
Somehow, I don't think they will.
"Fieldhouse/Student Union?" Is it descriptive of
its use or is it because officials felt that we
wouldn't cough up the dough for a field house,
so they got the idea that setting aside space for a
student union would make it sell better? If we're
going to pay for a gym that can serve the purpose
of a student union and double as a church on
Sunday, fine. Just tell us that we're voting on
a gym.
Finally, we need to think about all those students who will follow us later. These fee increases
will continue to rise. What about tuition? That's
a different issue and comes under a different
account. If tuition increases, they won't be able to
cry about fees because we voted for it. Times are
good right now. There is plenty of money via jobs,
scholarships, grants, and cheap loans. But when
the economy goes b&d, as it does occasionally,
all that money will dry up and the students that
follow may not be able to afford school then,
making the building of a structure now a moot
point.
Again, I am not opposed to construction,
expansion, or looking towards the future. What
I feel strongly about is that people need to ask
the university the hard questions before voting.
Everyone should vote. But if the only decision
that we can make is an uninformed one, then the
foundation that we lay today may not support the
future that we seek to build for tomorrow.

Influenza
Vaccine
Shortage
and Supply
Delays
In a statement released by
the Centers for Disease Control
(CDC), there will be a delay in
influenza vaccine shipments
and possibly a nationwide
shortage of the vaccine for the
2000-01 seasons. The CDC
is encouraging all health care
providers to provide the vaccine to the patients who are
at highest risk of death from
influenza only at this time
and to delay mass immunizations of adults until November
2000.
Individuals with high-risk
medical conditions and pregnant females in the second
and third trimester ofpregnancy are at a high risk for serious complications from influenza infections, including hospitalizations and deaths. These
individuals are encouraged to
obtain the vaccine.
If you have questions as
to what the high risk conditions are, please contact your
health care provider as soon
as possible. Students may
also direct their questions to
the Student Health Services
at (760) 750-4915. TDD (760)
750-4924. Staff and students
may call the clinic in
November to check on the
availability of vaccine. At this

"Reality is merely an illusion, albeit a very persistent
one"
"In the middle of difficulty lies opportunity."
"There are only two ways to live your life: One is as
nothing is a miracle. The other is as though everything
is a miracle."
"Great spirits have always found violent opposition from
mediocrities. The latter can not understand it when a man
does not thoughtlessly submit to hereditary prejudices but
honestly and courageously uses his intelligence."
"Imagination is more important than knowledge, for
knowledge is limited while imagination embraces the
entire world."
"The important thing is not to stop questioning. Curiosity
has its own reason for existing. One cannot help but be
in awe when he contemplates the mysteries of eternity,
of life, of the marvelous structure of reality. It is enough
if one tries merely to comprehend a little of this mystery
every day. Never lose a holy curiosity."
