Meet Dean
Poullard

The first thing one notices
about Jonathan Poullard is his
focused energy and sincere passionate interest in helping students and creating a wholistic
inclusive community on campus.
He is extremely approachable and
receptive.
As our new Dean of Students,
Poullard has spent 14 years in
higher education, and he's only
34. At an age when many 21-year
olds haven't begun thinking about
where life may be heading,
Poullard was the Coordinator of
Residential Life at Pennsylvania
State University while working
on his Master's degree in developmental psychology with an
emphasis in early adult education. He found himself learning
and applying skills that he would
be honing for the next 14 years,
and now he brings this immense
experience and excitement to Cal
State San Marcos.
Poullard has spent the last
nine years at Occidental College
in Los Angeles acting as Assistant
Dean for three years and
Associate Dean for the last six. He
worked for two years before that
at Pennsylvania's Susquehanna
College as the Director of
Multicultural Affairs, then as
coordinator, director, and finally
as Assistant Dean of Students.
Poullard accepted CSUSM's offer
because he wanted to progress
professionally, becoming a full
Dean, and because CSUSM
offered him an optimum level of
professional growth.
"It's very challenging in its
difference from Occidental. Not
only am I going from private
to public, residential to commuter, but younger to older, and
small to large. I wanted that difference to "challenge and expand
how I interface with students,"
says Poullard.

states Poullard, "and I see it as
my role as dean to help us create
that."
Poullard is also concerned
that many students don't know
what Student Affairs is, and that
students can come to him, "For
me, as dean, you can come to
me for anything, and if I can't
help you, I will definitely take
you to where you can be helped.
I want to be directly responsible
for helping students learn and
grow," says Dean Poullard.
"At student services, we are
educators outside the classroom,
and it is our job to build a seamless living/learning community
for students, and help students
learn who they are in respect
to other people," says Poullard,
"The work of student affairs is
to consciously develop leaders
and leadership skills which help
students make positive change in
their lives."

�My Day With Jack
By: Benjamin Wayne
Pride Staff Writer
Locked into the bump and
grind, juggling my school and
work schedule for necessities over
priorities, and sleeping on an
"as time permits" basis have all

of thoughts-they are unwanted
passengers. My father says that
these inevitable successions of
free time are all part of a larger
chain of events-the chain leading

I would listen, possibly even
agree, but today is different.
It's noon on Tuesday (a day
when I should be on deadline)
but instead I have concocted a
string of ingenious lies and alibis.
I have convinced my coworkers
and peers that a dire event has

begs my attention. It's not far
from the truth, however. Being
23, I am not afforded enough
job security to simply tell my
boss that I need to go for a hike.
But this is all inconsequential,
old news, as the editors of The
Pride would call it because I
have already put on my hiking
shoes, and I will fly them like the
United States flag until the wilderness liberates me. Jack's Pond
lies in the Southeastern foothills
of San Marcos. My trail manual
describes it as a 1/2 mile easy
hike to the shores of the pond.
To the untrained eye, the
trail's beginning looks like another city park-full of evenly
trimmed grass, a swing set and
a bench, full of young mothers
who carefully watch their children from a distance. "Why do
they call it Jack's Pond," a young
mother asked me as I stopped to
tie my shoes. "I don't see a pond
here. That's just so silly, Jack's
Pond," I guess she didn't see the
small lake her boy was making
by holding down the lever to the
drinking fountain. However, she
was right; Jack's Pond is nowhere
in sight only track homes and
foliated hills surround the playground. Like all of nature's beauties, however, it lies down the
road less traveled. I didn't want
to tell her; selfishly enough, that I
like to keep its entrance a secret.
Embarking on my journey
was like stepping into the wild
and all the trappings of society
disappeared from me sensory
range. Even the noises from nearby earthmovers ceased. In fact,
the only domesticated sound I
could hear was a pair of roosters
crowing; I guess news of the
morning's arrival travels like
everything else in the country:

of each individual school district,
allowing each school district to

their area's educational needs.
Opponents to Prop 39 point out
a possible flaw in the proposition that does not regulate property tax limits. Considering property taxes are often the primary
means for raising school related
revenues, such an oversight in

Pride Staff Writer
On Tuesday, November 7, voters will have the opportunity to
decide the fate of eight propositions, four of which are extremely controversial. Ranging from
campaign finance reform to
school vouchers, each of the four
"major" propositions could make
a major impact upon the life of
Californians.
Prop 38: The voucher proposition
The most heavily debated of
the four propositions, Prop 38,
centralizes around the future of
public educational institutions.
Also known as the "voucher proposition," Prop 38 would allow
each pupil to receive $4,000 dollars annually for private or religious schooling. While Prop 38
would give parents greater discretion over their children's educational arena, some groups, such
as A Coalition of Parents, incessantly argue with the proposition's approval, the public school
system's future will be doomed,
and that 3 billion dollars would
be eradicated from the public
education system.
my now bare feet. It proceeded to
spread its wings in an unfettered
display of brevity; I submitted to
its beauty and did not dare to
move. In a flash it was gone and
I closed my eyes. Lulled by the
sound of tiny waves lapping at
the shore, I began to dream. I pictured the bobcat, graceful creature whose prints I had noticed
by the shoreline just moments
before my sleep. I pictured it
carving down the hillside for a
drink at night. I thought of all the
wild creatures in the hillsides,
of Native Americans and times
long gone, but, more importantly,
I thought of Jack. Who could
he have been; a drifting cowboy
who had found his paradise or an
heir to hundreds of fertile acres
in the next valley over who gave
it all away for this pond?
To my surprise, I awoke in
the shade. The sun had long since
slipped behind the coastal hills
and a cold wind was blowing. I
dawned my shirt in a hurry and
tied my shoes. I had a dinner date
with a loved one at six-the cries
of a city bayed in the afternoon.
However, as I drove home locking bumpers with my fellow rats
in traffic, I, for one, felt less like a
rodent. My soul had been washed
and my conscious cleaned by the
sun and by the shores where I
slept away my day, where I forgot my troubles for a moment-at

dreamed, I took my shirt off and
soaked in the sun. A couple hundred yards up the trail old Jack,
as I liked to call him, revealed
his secret-the pond that stretched
out before my eyes.
It's a rather unconventional
water hole at first glance, longer
than it is wide; it reminds me
of a river that had been dammed
from both ends. But I was not
interested in it's aesthetic appeal,
I had to get down to its shore.
Choosing the first available route
down, however steep, is sort of
a mistake that I make constantly,
but, like all failure, falling down
makes us realize how human
we are. Here I was though,
at the shore, oh serene cove.
Surrounding the beaches, which
I could not see in their entirety
were Coastal Live Oaks, tall
thickets of Black Bamboo, olive
trees and toolies.
Everything was quiet, and I
lied down. Just then, a fish in
search of its next meal broke the
calm waters of the lake. However,
it was to no avail because the
dragonfly it was after drifted on,

Prop 34: Limits on sizes of
campaign contributions?
Considering the large amount
of attention garnered by Props 38
and 39, some may overlook one
proposition on the ballot receiving national attention: Prop 34.
Proposing to place limits on the
size of campaign contributions
per election ($3,000 for state
legislature elections, $5,000 for
statewide office elections and
$20,000 for governor elections),
Prop 34 hopes to create a more
democratic environment in the
election of a candidate. Some
pundits argue the exact opposite,
Prop 39

Prop 36: Treatment of drug
offenders
Probably the most controversial and emotionally charged
proposition on the ballot is Prop
36, which reconsiders the ways
in which drug offenders are treated and incarcerated. According
to the proposition, individuals
apprehended in possession or
under the influence of narcotics
would require probation and drug
treatment, but not incarceration.
After completing probation and
treatment, subsequent charges
against the individual would be
dropped. Many individuals arguing against Prop 36 fear the
proposition would allow individuals maliciously selling the "daterape" drug a light slap on the
wrist. However, in response to
the "date-rape" drug conundrum,
individuals apprehended for selling or giving someone the heinous "date-rape" substance would
receive several charges, and face
incarceration for a multitude of
violations.

making $3 a day in Mexico; however, when he came to the U.S., he
was able to send $300 every two
weeks to his family in Oaxaca,
Mexico. The value of the U.S.
dollar attracted many of these
Green Valley inhabitants.
"One of your dollars is
enough for us," stated one man.
He also expressed how he felt
he was treated "like a dog" from
time to time.
One scene shows Martinez
driving around North County
pointing out the work that his
friends in the camp have done,
"See all the beautiful yards?
These workers are needed. But
after their work is done, the
employees just want them to disappear."
Thefilmcontrasted the affluent homes in North County with
the homes that were in this particular migrant camp. The typical "homes" in the Green Valley
camp consisted of bushes containing makeshift shacks made of
plywood, plastic, and dirt floors.
There were also "spider holes,"
which are little homes made from
mud caves and cardboard used as
flooring.
The documentary shows how
some North County homeowners
became upset about the Green
Valley camp and its close proximity to their own homes. Some
of the homeowners also complained that Green Valley inhabitants stole food and defecated
near the property.
According to the surrounding
community's Health Department,
a water source and sewage maintenance were just two of the
many necessities missing from
Green Valley, making it a "very
unhealthful environment".
Could people actually live in
these conditions? The documentary revealed that it was possible.
More than 400 men, women, and
children had lived there over the
ten years that the camp had been
in existence.
However, property owners
were ordered to either improve
conditions in the camp or abate
the situation. During the 1989
filming of the documentary, the
Green Valley property owners
were the Hunt Brothers, wealthy
Texas men who were not living
in the San Diego area. The owners in this case chose to close
Green Valley rather than improve
conditions in the camp.
"It's like leaving our home
once again and having to start
all over," says one man, whose
family was evicted from Green
Valley.
Paul Espinosa, who wrote,
directed, and produced Uneasy
Neighbors, told how he felt a
very strong sense of community
in the camp. "And that was
kind of destroyed the last days
of the camp," he says. Green

Uneasy Neighbors Explores Migrant Work Camps in San Diego
By: Victoria B. Segall
Pride Editor
On Thursday, September 28,
an audience of 15 people gathered
in Commons 206 to view Paul
Espinosa's documentary, Uneasy
Neighbors, which explores the
relationship between migrant
workers and affluent homeowners in San Diego's North County.
The film deals with the tension between migrant workers
and homeowners and questions
whether there is any alternative
to the two living side by side
as "uneasy neighbors." Uneasy
Neighbors was filmed in
Encinitas in 1989. The main focus
of the film is a migrant camp,
"Green Valley," that used to be
located in the area close to La
Costa, Carlsbad, and Encinitas.
"They're here because we
offer the jobs. We need t hem"
says Reverend Martinez who is
a retired Presbyterian Minister.
Martinez was a prominent figure
in providing assistance to the
people who lived in the Green
Valley camp.
Explorations: Uneasy Neighbors
The film explores the types of
employment that migrant workers
found in construction, landscaping, or domestic help in surrounding areas like Encinitas. During
the filming of this documentary,
one worker in the camp was only
rant," which consisted of a family within the camp that prepared
meals on a grill in a makeshift
shack.
"Many people don't realize
that they are human beings," stated Reverend Martinez, "They
spend money to save whales, but
what about people? It's the greatest of absurdities. It's a matter of
priorities and values in society."
The 35-minute documentary
expressed the need for federal
laws and government action to
help deal with the situation
between the homeowners and the
migrant workers. One solution
that helped some of the inhabitants of Green Valley was lowincome housing.
"But we have far to go still,"
says Espinosa.
Paul Espinosa: The Director
Uneasy Neighbors was named
one of the top 100 Chicano Films
by the Aztlan Film Institute,
established by UCLA's Chicano
Studies Research Center.
Espinosa was drawn to the
subject of uneasy neighbors in
1986 when many immigration
laws were being passed.
Mainstream media wasn't too
interested in some of these stories
and Espinosa felt that there was
an incomplete picture of what
was happening between migrant
workers and homeowners.
"It [film] wasn't made just
for the local audience here in San
Diego County," says Espinosa,
"It's also for all American cities
and it deals with the rich and
poor."
During the discussion following Uneasy Neighbors, Espinosa
spoke about the people he met
at Green Valley while making
the documentary. "Reverend
Martinez, who's in his late 60's,
hadn't planned on getting
involved. But he was shocked,"
said Espinosa, "It shows the
power of what an individual can
do when they get involved. And
this brings up the question of
what we can do to break down
some of these barriers."
Paul Espinosa's experience
includes being a long-time producer for public television programs dealing with the United
States-Mexican relations. His current project is a documentary
dealing with the causes and outcomes of the war between Mexico
and the U.S. and will be showing
at the Museum of Contemporary
Art from October 5 and 12.
Espinosa, who grew up in
New Mexico, has lived in San
Diego County for 25 years. He
has a great interest in informing
people on relations, the culture,
and the people of Latin America.
"If you don't know what happened in the past, you're going
to look at this subject a little
differently," says Espinosa.
�The Brown Bag Concert Series
By: Christopher F. Orman
Pride Staff Writer
Eclectic would summarize
CSUSM's Brown Bag Concert
series that occurred at noon by
the Dome on September 25 to
September 28. As a whole, Brown
Bag Concert series certainly gave
CSUSM students an opportunity
to discover sounds not included
in standard radio formats. The
Charles McPherson Quartet,
Second - Avenue Klezmer
Ensemble, Earl Thomas and the
Blues Ambassadors, and rootsrockers The Blazers, adequately
covered a plethora of often overlooked musical idioms.
Following several originals,
McPherson and his compatriots
flew passionately into a highspeed version of Sonny Rollins'
classic St. Thomas. Playing three
times the notes included in
Rollins' studio version of St.
Thomas, McPherson clearly
revealed his expertise and all
around musical dexterity.
The Charles McPherson
Quartet cannot be considered any
typical, mediocre jazz band. In
fact, some of the music played by
McPherson and his band rivaled
performances by well-known jazz
acts at respected venues such
as Humphrey's and Escondido
Center for the Arts.
All thatjazz
Singin'the blues
On Monday, September 25,
Charles McPherson's Quartet
opened with a stirring rendition
of My Favorite Things, which
was made infamous by the late
John Coltrane. McPherson made
special use of his back up band,
empathetically moving his saxophone in and out of the crowd,
thereby accuentating the potent
mix of drums, bass, and piano.
Possibly the most energetic
act of the week was Earl Thomas
and the Blues Ambassadors who
began their brief ^lues-based set
with the wonderfully lascivious
Fred McDowell song, Drop Down
Mama. Considering the large
notoriety being garnered by acts
like Taj Mahal, Corey Harris and
the North Mississippi Allstars,

What
Student
Union
Vote?
I feel it is important to ask
a few questions about the issue
before it is voted on.
What Student Union? The
web page: www.csusm.edu/
student affairs/
Info%20Items/university
student union referendum.htm
about the Clarke Field House/
University Student Union states
"What is the Clarke Field
House/University Student Union?
The proposed building will provide a multi-purpose gymnasium, weight/exercise room, locker
rooms and showers, sports medicine facility, equipment storage
and offices. It will also include
conference space and meeting
rooms, student government offic-
t

es and a convenience store."
There is NO mention of a student
union, only athletic related facilities, offices and meeting rooms.
Why is this issue being called
Clarke Field House/University
Student Union when there is no
student union listed as part of the
proposal?
When will the fee end? It
never does. The fee increase will
only end if a future referendum
passes to eliminate it.
Is this the best or the only
funding option? Is a $7.4 million dollar facility what we need?
According to the above listed web
page, "the estimated construction costs for the Clarke Field
House/University Student Union
is between $7.1 and $7.4 million."
And that "$2.7 million will be
identified in gifts and grants."
If $2.7 million can be raised in
gifts and grants, why not build
a facility for $2.7 million? If it
is really necessary for the much
more expensive building to be
built, have other funding avenues
been exhausted? Corporate sponsorship perhaps? Around the
county, "The Murph" is now
Qualcom Stadium, and there is
the Coors Ampitheater, SDSU has
the Cox Arena. Perhaps CSUSM
should look in to having a Philip
Morris or MGD Student Union?
(Indecently, I bet if there was a
convenience store in the student
union with a liquor license, more
students would use it).
Is there any guarantee regarding how the money will be spent?
Not that I have seen.
I feel it is deceptive for the
two measures to be generally
referred to by the same name, as
they are very different. Measure
One deals with the construction
of a FIELD HOUSE that supposedly contains some unspecified portion of it to be used for an
interim student union, yet the proposal listed on the web does not
list a student union. Measure Two
actually deals with the construction of a student union almost 20
years from now.
The question is not necessarily about voting no to the construction, but voting no to these
measures. Only vote yes when a
proposal comes along that better
specifies how funds will be allocated and for how long.
Vote NO on Measure One and
Two.

Letter to the Editors
Dear Editor:
As a CSUSM Alumnae, I
would like to voice my support
for the University Student Union
fee referendum. While attending
CSUSM, I was actively involved
in various organizations on campus. As a past Orientation-Team
Leader, I gave tours to the incoming students. The main question
asked by most freshmen was
"Where do you usually spend
your time in between classes"?
Unfortunately I had to tell them
that I had no choice but to try
to find a place in the Dome.
As an "O-Team" Leader, I saw
the importance of the University
Student Union so I became a
member of the University Student
Union Advisory Board. The
need for this facility became even
more obvious to me while serving on the USUAB.
For study group meetings,
the only choices are the Library,
where the group meeting rooms
are always occupied, or the Dome,
which never has tables available.

AN OPIMONZ
I think that having a Student
Union on campus will benefit
many students for many years
to come. And the increase in
cost is still so low: only $30. I
understand $30 is a substantial
amount for a student, but if you
think about it, it is only 40 cents
a day per semester, excluding
weekends. Most of the students
will probably say, "Sure it is very
easy for alumni to support this
since they will not be paying a
penny for it." I am currently a
graduate student at SDSU and
the Student Union fee is higher
- $71/per semester; and I'm glad
students before me saw the need
to build a place for students to
meet.
I hope my letter reaches students at CSUSM. Please think
about future students when making your final decision on the
University Student Union fee.

�A Closer Look at CSUSM Cross Country
By: Steve Compian
Pride Staff Writer
What is it like to compete in
cross country running? For the
average person the answer would
seem to be simplistic: you have
to run every day until you build
up some endurance and then go
mach five during a race. Some
of that might be true, but to get
a better idea you should ask the
members of the CSUSM crosscountry team.
Some of the runners put in
up to fifty miles of road work
per week in preparation for the
competition. The men compete,
in an eight-kilometer (5.3 miles)
long race, while the women run
the distance of five-kilometers
(3.1 miles). The scoring for each
event is determined by the placement of individual runners as
they cross the finish line. The
team's five best runners are identified and the lowest scoring team
wins.
Before the start of each race
the runners must-warm Tip their
bodies by a routine of stretching
and running. Depending on the
individual, this may take as much
as an hour. Also before the race,
runners must conduct a reconnaissance of the course to get
a clear idea of the route, and
its condition. Final preparations
include last minute instructions
from coaches, and making sure
the runners are wearing their
"numbers," which, help officials
determine placement. Then the
runners move over to the starting line for the race. For the
details on how the game is played
though, you have to talk to the
players.
When asked if they believed
that cross country should be classified a "non-contact" sport, some
of the runners gave a few sly
grins and some rolling eyes. "I
still have scars down there," said
junior Heather Garritson, pointing to the marks on her ankle
that were made as a result of the
wars that occur at the start of
Annual Cougar Chase
» Continued from p g. 1
Coach Steve Scott Photo by Steve Compian
Coach Scott, a former
Olympian, had enough gas
left in his tank to run back
along the course to cheer
on the rest of the runners.
One of those runners was
Bob Mangrum, for whom the
school's track was named.
"I had a great time," said
Mr. Mangrum, who won in
his age category at a time
of 23 minutes and 11 seconds, even though he was
still recovering from a hamstring pull.
In between the races,
Coach Scott kept busy by
signing t-shirts and giving
advice to the young runners.
"You want to start off slow
and then have enough for
the finish," he told a group
of kids.Later, the coach ran
with the kids during the IK
Cub Run, while shouting
encouragement to the young
competitors.
Little Vincent Loretti
was the last runner to cross
the finish line, which officially ended competition at
the Second Annual Cougar
Chase. .
AH the participants were
treated to refreshments that
included complimentary slices of Fruschetta Pizza. The
line for the pizza was almost
as busy as the line to see
the posted official results,
with everyone looking to see
where they had placed.
At the awards ceremony, all the top runners
received their awards from
Coach Scott. Every child
who crossed the finish line
also received a medal from
Coach Scott.
Seventy-one year old Ed
Maher and seventy-six year
old John Cross were among
those who received congratulations. Maher finished in
the time of 25 minutes and 9
seconds and Cross' time was
27 minutes and 27 seconds
for the 3.1 mile event.
each race. Garritson suffered her
injuries when other runners used
the cleats of their shoes, meant
to gain traction, as weapons to
fight for position in the closely
compressed pack of runners.
The physical contact that the
runners endure isn't limited to
the lower torso. "They hack and
push," said sophomore Kenneth
Nwadike, as he demonstrated
with downward gestures with a
pointed elbow. It continues to
get physical during the race, too.
Senior Renee MacDonald told
how she and another girl became
"attached" as they arrived at
the halfway point of the Aztec
Invitational 5k race. "She just
kept pulling on my arm until
I finally yanked it away," said
MacDonald.
The end of the race is the
last chance that the runners have
to secure the highest place in
the competition, which equates
to points for the team. It is common for large groups to arrive at
the finish line together, conceiv-
RETIREMENT
ably at the same time. The difference between 30th and 42nd place
may only be a couple of seconds,
but for the total team score, the
12-point margin becomes very
important. In order to get noticed,
freshman Josh Wing said, "The
coaches teach us to raise our
hands." The runners must also
have the presence of mind to
hand in their "numbers" at the
finish line where an electronic
scanner turns bar codes into official results.
After the race is over, the
runners must cool their bodies
down with some light jogging
and stretching to prevent injury.
The women's race usually lasts
from 18 to 27 minutes, while the
men's competition can last from
25 to 32 minutes. By the time
the awards ceremony has been
conducted, the athletes may have
invested five to six hours of their
day towards the races, not counting travel time. Then it's back
to practice next week to start all
over again.
