By VICTORIA B. SEGALL
Pride Editor

Cal State San Marcos was
greeted with pouring rain and
hail on Saturday, April 21, the
scheduled date for SpringFest
2001. The event was cancelled
because of the weather conditions. SpringFest, sponsored by
ASI, was scheduled to include
food, games and entertainment,
including the Battle of the Bands.
Brad Schmidt, ASI Club
Technician, said that the event
would be postponed to a later
date.

"It's a real pleasure to see

come to fruition in the near

project, which will cost $26.8
million. "Everything (that is
built) is funded by state issues,"
explained Carol Bonomo,
Associate Vice President of
External Affairs.
In order for this project to
receive funding, it needs to be
included in a bond issue ballot
for March 2002. According to
Bonomo, the entire bond issue
ballot will range from " $2 billion to $8 billion." The project
must be approved by the state
legislature by August 31 of this
year in order to be included
on the March 2002 bond issue
ballot. If it is not approved^
Bonomo said that the University
would try again in November. If
the legislature passes the bond
issue ballot, then the governor
will put the project in the budget and construction will begin

shortly thereafter.
The process from project
approval to completion can be
lengthy. The Arts and Science
buildings, approved in 1998, are
still currently in the construction phase. If the bond ballot
passes next year, then the building will be scheduled for completion by June 2006. However,
this date may be as early as
2004 or 2005.

Christian Students Hold Weeklong Bible Marathon on Campus

By J. RYAN SANDAHL
Pride Staff Writer

"We're hoping to bring different people from all walks of
life together to dialogue," said
Ruth Bran, a spokesperson and
volunteer for Priority Christian
Challenge (PCC), a club on campus. PCC hosted a Bible Reading
Marathon last week.
Students, faculty, and staff
were able to sign up for halfhour sessions in which the Bible
was read aloud with a goal of
reading the Bible from cover to
cover by the end of the week.
The marathon lasted from seven

in the morning to nine o'clock at
night each day of the week.
"We're not here to throw the
word in people's faces like Jeb
does,'' Bran said, referring to
pastor Jeb Smock who comes
each semester to the free speech
area and shouts accusations at
students. "This is why there are
no microphones or speakers set
up," Bran explained. "It's'more
of a quiet setting where people
can come listen and dialogue
with one another," she added.
There were many reasons
why the club decided to put on
the Bible Marathon. "No book
has sold more copies than the

Bible," Bran explained. "That is
why we want to have it read.
That and many people don't read
the Bible as often or as thoroughly as this."

Included in the reading is a
Spanish/English version of the
Bible so students that speak
Spanish could also read if they
wished. Bran did much of her

reading in Spanish.
"I think PCC has good
intentions/' said CSUSM student
Chris Orman. "I wouldn't have
a problem with other religions
doing what these guys are doing.
It adds to the diversity of the
campus."
Priority Christian Challenge
is different from another d ub on
campus known as Inter-Varsity
Christian Fellowship (IVCF).
Many IVCF members signed up
and helped read the Bible during
the week. As did many other
students throughout the week.

�April Is Sexual Assault Awareness Month

By LISA LIPSEY
Pride Staff Writer

Not many people may be
aware that, in 1997, the State of
California named April Sexual
Assault Awareness Month. Sexual
violence can be a hush-hush topic
and may get downplayed on some
university campuses. At Cal State
San Marcos the University Store
is the only area on campus posting information.
Sexual assault, as defined by
the United States National Victim
Center, is "any unwanted, indecent sexual conduct by a person
towards a man, woman or child,
accompanied by the threat of,
or the exposure to danger, physr
ical suffering or injury, fear,
shame, humiliation and mental
anguish."
InCalifornia there is "a vision
to end sexual assault." The
California Coalition Against
Sexual Assault (CALCASA) is
working to "expose the insidiousness of sexual violence, raise
public awareness of what the
American Medical Association
has called a 'silent and violent epidemic,' change public perception
of sexual violence and heal this
degradation against the human
race."
From CALCASA's March
2001 report (www.calcasa.orgl
lists some interesting statistics
about sexual assault:

An estimated 302,100
women and 92,700 men are
forcibly raped each year in
the United States
• In the United States, one in
three girls and one in five
boys is assaulted as a child.
The typical child sex
offender molests an average
of 117 children, most of
whom do not report the
offense.
Sexual abuse is the most
under-reported crime in the
United States. While the
number of cases isn't
known, researchers estimate
that as few as one in 10
cases is reported to authorities.
• . Only 2 percent of rapists are
convicted arid imprisoned.
• About one in three women
and one in eight men is
raped after turning 18. . „
San Diego is number two in
the state for reported rape
occurrences.
"In order to stop being victims, we ourselves must take
up the struggle against [sexual
assault]. Individually and collectively we can break the silence
and make it no longer a taboo subject, or something shameful that
weighs us down," states Susan
Griffith, author o f "Rape: The
Politics of Consciousness''
Here are 20 Ways You Can

Begin to Stop Sexual Assault
from the 1998 California AntiSexist Political Caucus:
1) If you have been a victim
of sexual assault either by a
stranger, acquaintance or an
intimate, know there is help
out there. Seek it.
2) Interrupt rape/sexual assault
jokes.
3) Women: Take self-defense
classes.
4) Recognize that no one asks
or deserves to be assaulted
ever.
5) Don't blame the victims
for the violence perpetrated
against them.
6) Know that silence does not
equal consent.
7) Take responsibility for your
own,sexuality; do not let it
be defined by your partner,
the media or anyone else.
8) Donate money or time as a

Q: WhatexactI ly do you want to

A: "I want to
see ASI further student life on campus
through the promotion and success of
such events as the Spring Fest. I encourage
students to attend ASI events and would
hope that such events would promote student awareness of ASI, as well as the student life here at CSUSM."

Q: What role would you play in implementing your goals and expectations?
A: "I would try to implement ASI
goals through the responsibilities of the VP
of Finance position, I plan on keeping
an up-to-date budget, keep the students
informed of the budget through the ASI
board and to keep track of budgeting success of ASI."
Q: Why should the students elect you?
A: "I have the experience as undergraduate representative, and through this
experience I have a feel for some of the
desires of the students, such as the need
for increased studenjpfe. I enjoy being
a student at CSUSM and hope that the
students will recognize my determination,
work ethic and desire to serve the student
body in the best way I know how."

Ton said that important issues CSUSM
students face include a "lack of information and connection in order for
them to utilize all the free and helpful
resources on campus." He added that

these resources include the Career
Center, the Writing and Math Centers, EOPS, ASI, ASPIRE, The Pride,
financial aid and counselors. Ton recognizes that students negotiate other
problems, including an "unexciting
campus life" and the need to get more
involved in the campus community.
Ton said he also thinks that "moderation," in both academics and free time
are necessary ingredients in a college
environment.
In order to make himself available
to students, Ton said that he will "have

When asked, "What specific actions would

issues that effect all students in the CSUs. I'd
be starting a lobby corps to bring students up

with anything you want participation in, the

Brown proposed advertising on campus
using "open forums in the free speech area,

For elections they open it up. We've been
putting things up in chalk, but it seems like
we can't do that for anything else.
Regarding student involvement, Brown
added, "You can put it all out there, but then
it depends on how many students come to

Asked, "What have you learned so far,
from being involved in ASI, about the position?" Brown replied, "I've gone to probably 50 percent of the CSSA conferences, so I

help as a political committee, to get students

to bring that information downfromCSSA

The Pride

The Charlie Parker Story Shown for CSUSMs Film Series
By JAMES NEWELL
Pride Staff Writer

Beneath the shadows of the dark,
smoke-filled nightclubs of the
1940s comes a murky portrayal
of the life of the world's most
famous junkie.
Sifting through the nightclub
life, laden with alcohol and druginduced delirium, Clint Eastwood
creates an account focused on
the character of Charlie Parker in
"Bird." Admission to "Bird," the
second piece in CSUSM's Art's
and Lectures Film Series, was
free, but only about 30 people
showed up.
Touching only certain historical aspects of the Bebop era,
the film showcases more of the
music created by Parker (played
by Forest Whitaker).
Bouncing between scenes of
heroin-induced mayhem and
improvisational jazz, Whitaker
does a great job getting into character for this tough roll. The film
highlights the last few years of
Parker's life and how he neglected to care for himself, leading
to his demise. When he died,
the coroner estimated his age to
be 65, but he was actually 34.
"Don't ever let them take me
back to Kansas City," said Parker,
who moved away from his roots
and created his own completely
fresh style of music. Known for
changing the face of jazz forever,
the Bird added eighth notes in
his melodies, giving bebop flavor
to old favorites and eventually

creating an entirely new sound.
The bebop musicians played so
fast and had so many rhythm
changes that listeners sometimes
complained they couldn't dance
to the new sound.
Touring through Harlem,
Chicago, Hollywood, the southern states and Paris, Parker didn't
listen to the criticism and was
dedicated to finding an audience
and ways to make money by playing his horn. Relatively unsuccessful in gaining monetary success, the Bird was able to eventually turn heads and one scene
showed fans in Paris raining
down roses as he ended a performance.
Although technology in the
1940s was not what it is today,
sound enhancements allowed the
true recordings to be used for
the soundtrack, and this accented
what the film focused on: the
music of Charlie Parker and this
father of bebop. Clint Eastwood
got together with Chan Parker,
Charlie's fourth wife, and found
many of Parker's live recordings.
They weren't very clear but by
using digital sound equipment,
Eastwood and Parker were able
to find some recordings never
before released that add to the
true beauty of the Bird's live
improvisation abilities, matching
the dark nightclub scenes that
saturate the film,
One recurring image in the
film is a single drum cymbal
floating through the air used to
bridge different scenes. The cym-

at again.
Two important men in
Parker's life as told in the story
are Dizzy Gillespie (played by
Samuel E. Wright) and Red
Rodney (played by Michael
Zelniker). Gillespie, also know
for his contributions to bebop,
portrays the success that Parker
was never able to obtain. In the
film, you find the love the two
had for each other, but they
end up taking different paths.
Gillespie leads a successful big
band in an overt attempt to prove
the masses wrong about the new
sound, while Parker's irresponsibility leads him to always being
broke, late and in the mist of
drug disorientation.
Parker befriends Red Rodney
while in L.A., where Red finds
Parker sitting on a trashcan shooting up heroin preparing for a
gig. The two end up teaming up
later in the movie for a colorful
tour of the South, marking one
of the only bright tours in the
film. In this part, it shows not
only segregation at nightclubs of
rural areas, but the group having
fun as they successfully perform,
drawing at times dancing crowds
of over 500.

Joey Ramone's Death R A M O N E S
By AMY BOLASKI
Pride Staff Writer

Joey Ramone, front man for the
pioneering American punk band The
Ramones, died Sunday, April 15, in a
New York hospital at age 49.
Ramone, often hailed as the father of
punk rock, was hospitalized last month
with lymphatic cancer, which he'd been
fighting for years.
Born Jeffrey Hyman, Ramone started playing in garage bands in New Yorkhe quickly put aside drumming to front
for the Ramones, whose four members
all adopted the same last name. The
band burst on the scene in a musical
era quickly growing stagnant. Ramone
called 70s rock "a hodgepodge of Pink
Floyd and Emerson, Lake, and Palmer
and all that. [We] stripped it right down
to bone, and we disassembled it and
reassembled it and put all the raw energy
and raw emotion and guts and attitude
back into it."
They put attitude and energy back
into a flagging scene and are credited
with the subsequent explosion of the
British punk music scene in 1976.
After spending only two days and
$6,000 on their debut album, The
Ramones, the band toured in England
in 1977, and its early music provided
a veritable breeding ground for bands
like The Clash and The Sex Pistols to
take off from. Their simple, three-chord
melodies and high-energy, garage rock
sound never propelled them into the Top
40, but it did establish them as "the
daddy punk group of all time," according
to Joe Strummer of The Clash, who paid
homage to The Ramones in a recent
interview with Spin magazine.

style. Joey R. (3rdfrom left), died ofcancer

Their first single, "Bliztkrieg Bop"
paved the way for 21 albums, 14 of
which were studio-produced efforts by
renowned producer Phil Spector. 1979's
effort, End ofthe Century,; was their bestselling album, and while the band only
climbed as high as 44 on the charts, their
remake of "Baby, I Love You" made it
into the top 10 in Britain.
Despite the lack of commercial success, The Ramones. remained beloved in
the hearts of fans in both the United
States and Britain for more than 22 years.
The band members' blend of leather,
denim, sunglasses and sneakers rendered
them recognizable anywhere, along with
characteristically short, thumping singles
like "I Wanna Be Sedated," "Sheila is a
Punk Rocker" and "Beat on the Brat."
Ramones Mania, the band's 1988 compilation album, quite possibly holds the
record for most songs on one album,
casing 30 of their most popular.
The Ramones retired in 1996 with a
farewell performance on the Lollapalooza
tour and a final performance in Toronto
in 1997.
Joey Ramone spent nearly half of his
life performing, and those of us who were
lucky enough to catch The Ramones, live
hold a ticket stub somewhere reminding
us that we were privy to something
groundbreaking. Joey Ramone will be
missed.

Tom Green Fingered

By MARLINO BATINGA
Pride Staff Writer

"I could not stop laughing,
my stomach ended up hurting
so much" said Lucy Barragan,
a Liberal Arts major from USD.
"I was already falling off of the
edge of my seat and five minutes of the movie hadn't even
passed." If you enjoy MTV's
"The Tom Green Show," then
your stomach will definitely be
hurting after you see "Freddy
Got Fingered." Green, director,
co-writer, and star of this new
motion picture, brings his outrageous antics to the big screen
once again as he plays Gord
Brady, a 28-year-old who dreams
of being an animation artist.
I have to admit this isn't
the greatest movie, but there is
unquestionably no other movie
like this out there. If you've followed Tom Green's work, then
you'd know what to expect from
this madman. However, for those
of you who haven't, let me warn
you that this film will keep you
on your toes due to Green's
sexual and bizarre humor.

When Brady leaves his
hometown of Portland, Oregon
in the attempt of fulfilling his
fantasies in Los Angeles, his
parents couldn't have been more
ecstatic that their son was finally leaving home. As result of
a poor evaluation of his talent,
however, Brady gives up and
runs back home to Portland. His
lack of inspiration causes his
father to try to force him to move
out in order to find a job, but
Brady retaliates by provoking
a father-son feud. With this storyline, "Freddy Got Fingered"
puts a twist on the concept of
father-son relationships as well
as providing the audience with
the moral issue of "not giving
up."
My only issue was that the
movie didn't really make any
sense. "Freddy Got Fingered,"
nevertheless, is a movie that I
recommend and should not be
overlooked, just find someone
to go with and be prepared to
laugh like you've never laughed
before. Tom Green's antics are
definitely worth the money.

o, why is this happening?
What is wrong with us? Do
we, as students, really just not
care? Well, the lack of attendance could easily prove that, yet
enough students complain about
having nothing to do, so they
obviously do care. So, why are
students not showing up? Let's
look at the possible reasons:
The off-campus events are
easy to explain. They are not at a
convenient location to just drop
in. Lack of advertising could
explain it, but most clubs and
organizations have flyers, billboards, signs, and some, not all,
clubs send their club meeting
and event dates, to The Pride for

Judging h y tthe AST R nudget
for Fiscal Year 2000, the student body is paying for a huge
bureaucracy that needs to be
refocused. A large amount of
the budget goes toward employee salaries, an observation that
does not reflect negatively upon
the work of our employees, rather exemplifies a fiscal policy
in need of reform. As an ASI
"shareholder," I would like to
make the following recommendations for next year's budget:
Problem: CSUSM students
do not know how their money
is being spent.
Recommendation :
Videotape the ASI meetings
when the budget is proposed so
that every student can see how
their representatives are allocating their money and how their
representatives voted. Also, post
the budget in the recreation center where all the students can
see it.
Problem: Half the $860,000
budget went toward employee
salaries, benefits, payroll taxes,
and university fees.
Recommendation: Pass legislation restricting that amount
to no more than 35% of the annual budget. Enact a 10-year mora-

benefits, retaining the employees we have now but letting
them know that they won't be
getting a raise anytime soon.
Work with the university about
eliminating excessive fees.
Problem: The CSUSM Early

no support from the university.

the Editor

State Fullerton conducted a survey of twenty CSU Child Care
Facilities. Nineteen CSU's contributed an average of $56,000
to their respective childcare programs. According to the survey,
CSUSM was the only school that
did not contribute any money
directly toward its daycare center. Recommendation: Insist that
the administration support our
day care facility and return
that amount to the students.
The "extra" money would,help
offset the $160,000 loss the

ences annually.
Problem: Restrict discretionary spending. Example: The
Early Learning Center shows it
spends $1,000 on advertising,
but we never see any advertisements in the campus newspaper. That Money probably went
toward administrative supplies,
but the ASI budget has that category listed with a separate
amount.
Recommendation: Design a
budget that restricts this type of
spending.
Problem: Only $25,000 of
the $860,000 budget (less than
3%) is allocated toward supporting club activities.
Recommendation: Increase
that amount to entice more club
participation.
Finally, as a show of good
faith, the ASI Board of Directors
could vote themselves a 10%
decrease in their scholarships.
They would return the combined
savings of that money (approximately $3,300) to the students.

D rama at t he C omputer L ab

By CLAY BABER
Pride Staff Writer

As I . walked to my seat in
the open access computer lab in
Academic Hall, I began to realize that in the time it took me
to print a copy of my midterm
project, my computer space had
been invaded by a group of students who were huddled around
the computer next to mine.
At first I didn't think anything of it. I figured that a simple "Excuse me" would do the
trick, and I would have my own
space back. As I approached the
pack of bodies clustered around
my station, I noticed that not
only did I no longer have a chair,
but the mouse and keyboard of
my computer were practically
buried under a pile of backpacks and binders. One of these
backpacks happened to be conveniently placed on the right
hand side of the keyboard so that
my midterm project was now
concluded with seven pages of
2's 3's and 6's.
Naturally I assumed that the
whole situation was an accident,
and that these invaders would
certainly understand my position when I asked them to move
their belongings and their bodies
out of my space. Once I shouted
over them to get their attention,
I got a response, but not exactly
what I expected.
When I asked them to please
move their stuff and relinquish

my chair, they looked at me
like I was an idiot. I received no
apology, and I was looked upon
as if I was the one causing a
problem. The "chair t hief' actually asked me to find him another seat. I thought to myself,
"Remain calm. Some people just
can't help being stupid."
Not once did I raise my
voice, nor did I make a scene,
although I had every right to.
Instead I spoke politely and maintained my composure so that I
did not "sink to
their level," so
to speak.
After a
short deliberation, I got my
chair back, but
now the mound
of backpacks
that was originally on top of
my keyboard was piled on the
floor at my feet. So there I sat,
sidesaddle in my chair trying
to create a reference page for
my project, while the swarm of
students carried on at a noise
level that made it impossible to
concentrate on anything.
I am not quite sure what they
were doing on the computer, but
they were glued to the screen
like a group of eight-year-old
boys looking at a dirty magazine. Who knows, but perhaps
I was interrupting some type
of substantial bonding moment
for these individuals. Maybe
they were just blatantly rude.

Whatever the case, I was amazed
at the lack of respect for others
that they exhibited.
I realize this particular lab is
not designated a "quiet" lab, and
that these students had as much
of a right to be there as I did.
What they do not have, however,
is the right to disrupt others who
are minding their own business,
working intently on important
school projects.
We are all here to learn the
skills necessary to succeed in
life, yet some
of us seem to
lack the basic
"people skills
needed to
interact with
others on
campus. Like
it or not, we
all have to work together here,
so how about brushing up on
your common courtesy guidelines. We all will benefit.
My intent in sharing this
episode is not to point a finger at
anyone in particular, but instead
it is to open someone's eyes to
their irrational behavior. I hold
no grudges, nor do I seek any
type of revenge for the actions
of these students. My only hope
is that these, individuals now
realize how their actions affect
others, and that perhaps they
will begin to show respect and
courtesy towards their fellow
students.

"Some people
just can't help
being stupid."

the baton to Niblett who had

had a fever that morning. Nibblett gave the baton to Mariscal,
who, with no time to lose, ran
an excellent race, handing the
baton to Downey, a 400-meter
runner with no experience in
the 800-meter. Downey ran the
800-meter in 2:22. Overall, the
women ran a time of 9:33.2

"This was our last opportunity to reach the qualifying
times, and although I thought
we were not going to make the
qualifying mark, we crushed it,"
said Coach Scott: The women's
4x800 relay team said they were
very surprised and happy with
their performances and that they
reached their personal best. "It

said Wilborn.
The men's 1,500-meter featured Marcus Chandler (4:01.3)

April 14 the team split up in order
to take part in two separate track
meets. The UCSD Collegiate

to be highly competitive.
Among CSUSM's many performers, Denaye Lakotich soared
to an all time best height of
