Segall Vol VIII No. 27/Tuesday, May 1,2001 1 Candidate Forum Held By AMY BOLASKI Pride Staff Writer1 An open forum, held Thursday and Monday, gave candidates in the ASI elections a chance to introduce themselves and field questions from students about campus issues and ASI's role and involvement in student life. One of the topics addressed was the ASI budget and the amount of money appropriated to help subsidize the cost of the Early Learning Center (ELC). Incumbent president Dean Manship said the ELC was one of the ASI's biggest costs* and addressed questions posed about the lack of funding for student clubs. "It's a difficult situation/' Manship said. "[The ASI] is a finalist for a $250,000 grant, and if we get it, we won't have to subsidize the ELC at all. If we don't get.it, we'll have to move money out of the ELC and the first place it will go is to student clubs and groups." Manship said the ASI budget is "a confusing document, and it's a difficult situation. Our only option to keep everyone happy is to continue looking for grants." Several of the candidates were asked what they could do to get students involved, and why they thought apathy was a problem on campus. Dustin Naylor, running for Undergraduate Representative, said, "Students aren't aware of what's available to them, what programs are available." Naylor mentioned that ASI-sponsored events are always well-publicized, "which is always a goal for us [ASI]"and that he'd "like to support the school more, and get in touch with the school by meeting new people." "ASI must go to great lengths to inform students," said Josh Associated Students Inc. candidates, Vinnie Williams, Tammy Rodriguez, Dustin Naylor, Artie Patel, Josh Heers and Dean Manship, sat outside of the Dome to answer student questions on Thursday, April 26. A secondforum was held on Monday, April 30. (Pride Photo/Melanie Addington) Heers, the unopposed candidate for Vice President of Finance. Vinnie Williams, who is running for Executive Vice President, said, "Students don't know what ASI is doing and they don't care, but I know everyone on this campus has; an opinion." Naylor also brought up the lack of student housing on campus, which he sees as one of the reasons for lack of student involvement. Williarrfls stressed the importance of getting out there and "really getting die message across to students, even if we have to be outlandish." Tammy Rodriguez, the unopposed candidate for Corporate Secretary, said she's "really f rying to institute a monthly newsletter to inform students " "It's not going to happen overnight," said Artie Patel, who is running for the position of College of Arts and Science Representative. "Hopefully, we'll see a lot of improvement next year." The candidates were asked to describe, in one word, the stance ASI needs to take to improve student involvement and campus life. Williams said the ASI needed to be "loud." Naylor said ASI should be "comfortable." Patel used the word "accessible," and Rodriguez said it should be "committed." "We need to envision where this organization is going to go in the future," said Manship. "It's not just a stop and go, but something we really need to carry o n" The ASI elections will be held May 1-2 from 8 a.m.-7 p.m. oh Founders Plaza.

By KEVIN FRISK Pride Staff Writer Bargaining Process Begins for Faculty »Article cont. from page 1 resolution to the contract bargaining." Diehr commented that, historically and considering the last contract negotiations, this process will not be without conflict. Ken Swisher commented that CSU administration "sincerely hopes to arrive at a quick and orderly renewal of the contract by June 30." In the event the union and CSU administration teams do not come to agreement on a contract by June 30, there could possibly be a declaration of impasse; meaning that both sides declare no progress has been made. After a declaration of impasse, mediation begins with a state representative from the Public Employees Relations Board to mediate the bargaining process. At this point, a period of "fact finding" begins with a team of three individuals, one from the CFA team, one from the CSU administration team, and one from a neutral party by mutual agreement. This factfinding team then issues a recommendation to the two parties who use the report to come to an agreement. "If necessary, such a process would hopefully be completed by the end of summer or surely by the end of September," said Diehr. "If this process doesn't work," he continued, "then job actions such as letter writing or e-mailing campaigns or teachins would begin." CFA hopes that these actions will get the attention of the state government who would then put pressure on both parties to come to an agreement. "It's very early in the process, and mostly what's happening at these early meetings is agreeing on the itinerary," said S S i H ^L '/tl/l //« >> # /w/iiu n> *> / </ 1 Swisher. Swisher continued by saying that, "This process is very normal. This year's contract negotiations are not extraordinary in any way."

Of course this costs the administration less," continued Diehr, "but adjuncts suffer because they have no employment assurance! Students also suffer in terms of quality of their education." Swisher explained that the CSU system administration had a very different view on the adjunct policy. "Our main use of adjuncts is to ensure our ability to adapt to a changing student — . X1 _ Weekly Web Site J. body. We want to be able to respond to increases pf students in particular classes, as well as situations where there are decreases in enrollment. Having adjuncts at our disposal allows us to be more flexible." Swisher also explained that, since the economy has improved, the CSU system is greatly increasing its level of adjuncts. "This was something we couldn't afford to do when the economy was bad," said Swisher. In reference to the quality of teaching provided by adjuncts, Swisher explained that, "It is (the administration's) view that adjuncts have the ability of bringing a new, fresh perspective into the classroom. For that reason, we think adjuncts are beneficial for students." Swisher said that the administration's main concern about the adjunct policy focused on FERP, the Faculty Early Retirement Plan. FERP allows faculty to teach part-time for half-pay while receiving about two-thirds of their retirement money. Swisher said that this necessitates the hire of "at least two additional professors to take their place, and that (FERP) is a program that administrators wish to make efficiency changes to." Diehr summarized the CFA's intentions for the bargaining process in renewing their contract saying, "Overall, we will be trying to reduce the rising student/ faculty ratio as well as the ratio of students to tenure track faculty, We'll be asking for more tenure track faculty and less adjunct positions. We want to encourage the administration to bargain in better faith and to reach early tentative agreements that can serve to expedite this bargaining process." By JAFO_WAC for The Pride Many traditionally printed newspapers have also developed online versions. This combination of printed and online edition, when done well, increases the newspaper's circulation, advertising and provides a broader range of services to readers. For example, the San Diego Union Tribune has an online edition that is found at http:// www.signonsandiego.com, and not too surprisingly, The Washington Post's online edition can be found at http://www.wasWngt9npost.com. The student newspaper at SDSU is The Daily Aztec, and it can be found at http://www.dailyaztec.com. The Pride also has an online edition, which can be found at http:// www.csusmpride.com. Online editions generally do not mimic their printed counterparts. Not all articles and advertisements make it into the online edition. The Pride's online edition is no different; not all articles are found on The Pride's online version, such as last week's web site review, and there is very little advertising on the site. Other online editions have features that make it worthwhile to visit the sites. Some features may be the newspaper's outstanding reputation, and viewing them online allows them to be globally accessible. For local papers, online displays of information such as traffic, weather and movie times provide incentives for readers to visit the web site. These features make online edition work. The Pride Online fails in these regards. Also, online editions often include features that allow for reader feedback that may not be found in printed versions, such as the online surveys found on The Pride site. Online surveys seem to be a standard component of newspapers and magazines web sites. Online surveys, however, are worthless from a statistical point-of-view as there is no way to tell how the people who take the surveys are distributed in the general population; and accordingly, the results are often skewed. One of the most useful features that can be incorporated into online newspaper editions is an archive of past issues. Archived issues of The Pride are not available on the web site. The site also has a "search" button, but it is a broken link, and the "contact" and "about us" links also do not work. None of the other online editions of newspapers I mentioned before feature non-functioning hyperlinks. The "LTWR 316/COMM 316" link works; however, I do not understand why it is included in the online edition of the paper, since the link is only for students in that class and not for general readers. The basic design of http:// www.csusmpride.com is logical and follows the standard formula for most web sites. The San Diego Union Tribune uses a similar formula. Basically, both sites consist of links on the right and left hand side of the page and a main story down the center. The Pride Online is easy to use, at least the functional parts of it, mostly because there is so little information on the web site. But their online edition also commits the faux pas of using the same underlined font and color for things that are both links and non-links. does not compose a useful a rnplimait to the printed edition because there is absolutely no reason to visit t te web site unless you don't pick up a printed version. �Local News Protest at the Border Free Trade Area of the Americas By ZACHARY PUGH Pride Staff Writer Protestors and activists marched through the streets of Southern California and into Mexico on Saturday, April 21. The rally began at Larson Field in San Diego where protestors began their march in hopes to stop the Free Trade Area of the Americas (FTAA), a proposed expansion of the North American Free Trade Agreement (NAFTA). FTAA would "integrate the economies of the Western Hemisphere into a single free trade arrangement," according to the official FTAA web site (http:// www.alca-ftaa.org), and "barriers to trade and investment will be progressively eliminated." Proponents of the FTAA, such as the Stop the FTAA Coalition, however, argue that, "the goal of the FTAA is to impose the failed NAFTA model of increased privatization and deregulation hemisphere-wide. Imposition of these rules would empower corporations to constrain governments from setting standards for public health and safety ... and enhance corporate control at the expense of citizens throughout the America's. FTAA would deepen the negative effects of NAFTA that we've seen in Canada, Mexico and the U.S." Guest speakers for the rally included Medea Benjamin, a political activist and U.S. senate candidate, and Tom Morello, a guitarist for Rage Against the Machine. "We are part of a movement that is not just around the FTAA, but stopping the whole corporate globalization agenda," said Benjamin, co-director of the San Francisco based human rights organization, Global Exchange. Morello told the crowd, "After looking at the FTAA's predecessor, NAFTA, it only makes sense to oppose it. NAFTA was a failure and destroyed the lives of millions. More people live in poverty today thanks to NAFTA, more people are landless and homeless thanks to NAFTA, and more people are working in sweatshops, are uninsured and are unemployed thanks to NAFTA." Although he did not attend this protest, student Ricardo Favela, president of the CSUSM chapter of MEChA (Movimiento Estudiantil Chicano de Aztlan) said he felt very strongly for the resistance against the FTAA. When asked about his personal opinions on the resistance to FTAA, Ricardo said that he was "in agreement with it" and that that we need "to try to internationalize the struggle and take a stand across the borders." T he Environmental C lub Hosts Beach Clean U p By NATHAN FIELDS Pride Feature Editor Despite gray skies and intermittent drizzle, CSUSM's Environmental Club pulled together a group of environmentally concerned citizens in its Saturday, April 28 beach clean up. Over twenty individuals, including students from Cal State San Marcos, Palomar College, North County high schools, local citizens and their children, arrived at South Carlsbad State Beach to join in a 9 a.m. effort to collect garbage and support the club's efforts to raise environmental awareness. Pleased by the turnout, Club President Alicia Saunders explained that this was the club's first independent activity in two years. "I contacted everyone I possibly could and encouraged them to come out and help " said Saunders, a liberal studies and Spanish major and long-time volunteer with f the Surfrider Foundation. The club's previous president, Robert Nanninga, who - ran for Encinitas City Council with the Green Party last year, encouraged the re-chartering of the club after leaving the university two years ago. "The guiding psychology of the club is to encourage people to care for and feel a connectedness and commitment to the environment," said Environmental Club Treasurer Kai Palenscar.

Kelly Comte, a Palomar College student, explained that she and her friends came to the event partially because they were offered extra credit in their Biology 100 class. "It's only ten points, so we mostly came because we wanted to help out and be at the beach." The club was successful in procuring donations of t-shirts, calendars and surfing videos from various surf companies that were used in a voluntary drawing. "We're using the money from the drawing to create a club banner to display on campus," said Amanda Wolfe, the club's vice president. "The rest of the money will be donated to the Surfrider Foundation."

An ensemble of college instructors, they performed free of charge at Escondido's California Center for the Arts, on April 23, at an auditorium filled almost to capacity. A self-described "performance a rt" trio, Drought Buoy is comprised of bass player Gunnar Biggs, poet Brandon Cesmat and dancer Terry Sprague. -What makes Drought Buoy performances so unique is that they are never performed quite the same way. Cesmat described it as a "passion for making something that is new every time." The impromptu part of the performance also adds a lot of creativity. Attendants were asked by student helpers to think of a random word, which was written down on paper and put in a box. During the performance, the group took the box, sprawled out the papers around the stage and selected a few at random. The group did an impromptu, freestyle on the word "flirting," about a couple that is flirting and waiting for their baby to fall asleep. Throughout much of the 45-minute performance, Cesmat talked or sang through song, Biggs coordinated the music, and Sprague performed interpretive dance. The songs that the group performed ranged from somber to funny to lively. Biggs played a surf-like melody on his bass for the song "California Town" while Cesmat spoke about the surrounding cities of Valley Center, Escondido and Vista. The song "Body Engineering" was about the design of body parts, which Sprague interpreted in a playful Wes Craven Visits CSU Campus: Discussion at Cal State Fullerton From there Craven went on to make "The Hills Have Eyes, followed by "A Nightmare on Elm Street," which has produced six sequels.

Cesmat spoke about how the legs and hips were designed "by gravity, or shall I say, a protest thereof." During the song "River Murmurs," the background changed to blue, reflecting a water-like setting. The silhouettes of the group were illuminated in an interesting way, with shadows of Sprague dancing and Biggs moving his fingers along the bass. The song, "Jitters/' was a crowd-pleaser and was written from the perspective of a person who has consumed massive amounts of coffee. Dancing in pseudo-African style, Sprague conveyed the feeling of someone who has caffeine jitters while Biggs kept increasing the tempo. "My favorite part was a song called 'Jitters,' the dance resembled the jitters," said CSUSM student John Wiskowsky. When asked about the whole performance, he said, "it was definite- Drought Buoy members (L-R) Gunnar Biggs, Terry Sprague and Brandon Cesmat.

"Elated confusion" was how Cesmat described the reaction that ihost people have to their performances. He added, "People like it and have difficulty explaining to their friends and family what they've just seen." Future Drought Buoy performances will take place at Dizzy's and the Berkeley Watershed Festival. Salsa Fresca: A CSUSM Student Recipe * I ts Fresh and I Made It Myself > By DANIEL HUEY Pride Staff Writer Guests come to our homes for numbers of reasons: to talk, to watch sports on TV, and to share 'meals. Be prepared to entertain with this simple, easy to prepare and delicious Salsa Fresca. Be sure to make plenty because this delicious stuff doesn't last long once the guests have tasted a sample. Preparation time is 10 minutes with a food processor or 20 minutes if done by hand. Ingredients: 10 roma or other variety of tomatoes 1 nice onion — red; white or yellow 1 bunch of green onions 5 firm, crisp, robust jalapeno chilies — never use canned chilies 1 bunch of cilantro Salt—I prefer margarita salt but any kind will do 2 juicy limes or ljuicy lemon White vinegar Okay, lets get cooking. Rinse the chilies, tomatoes, green onion and cilantro. I like using "Fit" to remove the wax that is used on these types of vegetables. First, dice the tomatoes and place in serving bowl, a large one is necessary. Next, mince half the onion and chop the green onion and place in the serving bowl. Split the jalapeno chilies in half and remove the seeds and the white part that holds the seeds. If you like your salsa very spicy (nuclear), leave the seeds and white part in a couple of the chilies. Mince the chilies and a good amount of the cilantro and place them in the serving bowl. With a wooden or plastic spoon, mix all the ingredients — "salsify" the salsa. A fter the salsa is mixed, squeeze on the lime or lemon juice, lime juice is preferred, and add about three tablespoons of the white vinegar—a good splash—and add salt to taste, then mix a little more. If you have the time, give the ingredients a half an hour rest in the refrigerator, this will allow the distinct flavors to meld together. Serve Salsa Fresca with tortilla chips as a finger food or as a condiment with tacos, eggs or fish. For a different flavor, try substituting some diced mango for part of the tomatoes (mango salsa is a delightful condiment for chicken and fish). Now when guests arrive they will ask, "Did you make any of your famous salsa? " Or they may ask, "How did you make this delicious salsa?" Shhhhhhh, it's a secret. Crocodile D undee in L os Angeles By TIM FARMER Pride Staff Writer Sequels tend to rely on their forerunning movies to captivate the audience. Although "Crocodile Dundee in Los Angeles" is no exception, it is as funny and as "good as the past Dundee movies. Paul Hogan again stars as Mick "Crocodile" Dundee, a tour guide from the Australian outback. Mick's longtime girlfriend, Sue Charlton, is still played by Linda Kozlowski after 13 years since the last Crocodile Dundee movie. In this sequel, Dundee and Sue have a child together but are not married. Mick can hardly tell Sue, "I love you," and the couple is rarely seen together which makes their relationship seem a bit unbelievable. Paul Hogan and Linda Kozlowski star in the third Crocodile Dundee film. ' (Courtesy Photo/www. imdb. com) Shortly into the film, the Dundee family travels to Los Angeles because Sue takes over a press position. She soon realizes that the man whose position she takes over was researching a movie production studio before he died. While Sue takes over his research, Mick takes a job as an animal caretaker, snoops around Los Angeles and finds some strange practices taking place. Like the other movies before, Mick always seems to find a way to use his outback skills to his advantage in fighting and capturing the "bad guys." Although this movie was hilarious, it was dependent on the ignorance of Mick living the city life and captivating everyone, including his son's teacher who has a crush on him. The movie *also had some spoofs to keep it interesting such as the Dundees driving an Isuzu Outback (in real life Paul Hogan endorses the Isuzu vehicle). In order to enjoy a movie like this, you need to let go of reason and thought.. "Crocodile Dundee in Los Angeles" is funny and entertaining, and that's the aim of this film.

Underhill began competing in the Ironman California three-and-a-half years ago and has competed in more than 40 races. .

We all get along and our different personalities make it a unique experience," says long-distance runner Cara Rumble. "I can't wait for the field house to be open and for more sports on campus. In comparison with Concordia University, Cal State San Marcos is mostly a commuter school, nevertheless, I still like it the way it is." Rumble, a psychology major, transferred to Cal State San Marcos from Concordia University last fall. She plans to be a high school counselor. She does not work at the moment, "It is hard enough right now with a full-time load and running," says Rumble. Her expectations for this track season are to go to the nationals and become an AllAmerican. "All I have to do is to work hard*" says Rumble, "on April 20 I will be running my first 10K in which I need to get at least a 38:45 to qualify for nationals and then a minute less to become an All-American," said Rumble. She also runs two hours every day. Rumble, who hopes to compete in the triathlon, adds, "It is nice to be at home and have Steve Scott for a coach." She believes she can accomplish her goals and thanks Coach Steve Scott for being there for her, "Coach really helps me. He is someone I can approach, and I am thankful for his emotional support." Rumble began running her freshman year in high school. Before she ran, she was a swimmer, which she says, "was very helpful for running." Surf and Ski in the J iame Day By TIM FARMER Pride Staff Writer With the ski season coming to an end, the options for ski and snowboard locations are also lessening. As of April 27, Bear Mountain, Snow Summit and Snow Valley are all closed for the season. Locally, Mountain High is the only remaining resort still in operation for skiing and snowboarding. They expect to be open at least through May 6, so time is running out. They have a 12-24" base and have spring conditions. The runs are pretty thin with snow, but individuals can still ride them. Mammoth, however, doesn't appear to be closing any time soon. Although they have spring conditions, they have a 5-7 foot snow base and just about every run is open. The trip can be rewarding if you are craving to get that last trip in before the season is over, and the roads are completely clear, so it won't take you forever to get through the snow. As for the surf conditions, the water isn't exactly warm yet. The terfiperatures have been ranging from 57-61 degrees, and the wave conditions have been fair.at best, but don't let that stop the summer surf urge from creeping into your blood a little early. The waves are still fun if you have a longboard, but they can be a bit frustrating if you are short boarding it. Get the M BA that keeps ori giving!

By ROLAND ARIAS JR. Pride Staff Writer Putting papers off until the last minute is something of a standard for students in college. Staying up until three in the morning, scrambling for additional sources, and finally printing an essay 15 minutes before class is nothing new to the average student. Many students can say that they are guilty of procrastination. But when an academic paper's length is the concern, a common tactic used is adjusting the fonts and margins. Throughout my academic life, professors have always told me to use a "standard font" and one-inch margins on all papers. As all of my papers have always been in Times New Roman, I find it disturbing that other people in my class would submit papers in the ever popular font, Courier New, that would magically increase the size of their papers by at least two pages. While some professors want students to type in Courier New for certain classes, most professors state that they want papers submitted in standard font normally in the size of 10 or 12. In most academic writing, professors request and average of five pages for a regular paper. While five pages is not a lot to ask for, many students will take the short cut of Courier New. Even when looking at a paper that is typed in Courier New compared to a paper typed in Times New Roman, there are glaring differences in the size and appearance of the text. For students who turn in their papers iri standard fonts, it can be disturbing to know that other students in their class submitted papers in a larger font, which is essentially less writing. While using Courier New and other fonts are popular methods of increasing paper length, another is adjusting the margins. As the. standard for academic papers is one inch, changing the margins even slightly increases the white space in a paper. Even as minuscule as changing a oneinch margin to 1.1 seems to work wonders when typing a paper 20 minutes before it is due. Changing the margins of a paper may increase the paper length, but just like changing the font size, it takes away from more intellectual writing that could have been in the paper instead. Given these tactics and other ways of trying to make a paper longer without actually typing more text and ideas, one must consider if using these shortcuts are worth the effort. The tradeoff for using these methods is including more analysis and more writing that could only better a student's paper. The content of writing, not filling white space on an essay, should be the concern in academic writing. Thoughts from the Cynic's Corner Compiled By : M .

De acuerdo un cuestionarios Algunos estudiantes han distribuido a un total de treinta optado por usar otros metodos para adquirir sus libros mas baratos, por ejemplo se los venden, prestan e intercambian entre ellos. El 45% de los estudiantes afirmaron que debido al poco reembolso que la libreria paga por los libros, los estudiantes obtan por no venderlos. Es por eso que; no es una sorpresa encontrar tan pequeiio porcentaje de los estudiantes, 21%, que si venden sus libros a la libreria. Cuando se les pregunto a los estudiantes que cual era la mejor alternativa para resolver este problema, ef 23% de ellos dijeron que deberia de haber una protesta entre los estudiantes para corregir esta injusticia de los precios altos. Otras soluciones son; vender los libros a otros estudiantes o aun mejor, comprarlos en otros lugares donde el precio sea mas bajo. Al preguntarle a la libreria sobre su opini6n, se negaron a dar permiso para que esta informacion fuese publicada. Para continuar la investigation relacionada con la libreria, se busco datos en la fundacion y se nos informo que la unica informacion que se pudiera dar seria generalizada y no espetificamente a esta universidad. Los estudiantes son afectados por los altos precios de la libreria y muchos estudiantes expresan su disgusto por los precios altos. Al mismo tiempo, los estudiantes tienen una esperanza de que la libreria cambie su politica de compra y venta de libros haciendola mas al alcance de los estudiantes. Esto no solo ayudaria a los estudiantes si no tambien a la HAVE AN OPINION? SUBMIT A LETTER TO THE EDITORS TO libreria porque atraeria mas clientes e hiciera mas ganancias. La libreria de esta universidad deberia de tener una politica mas abierta y dar a conocer a los estudiantes sobre esta. La censura de su politica hace que los estudiantes consideren la compra y venta de libros como injusto. Tambien hace que los estudiantes se pregunten porque la libreria no da a conocer su politica. Si es que la libreria esta haciendo algo bueno para los estudiantes, entonces porque no dar a conocer esa informacion que podria cambiar la opinion de los estudiantes sobre la libreria. Al hacer esto, la libreria ayudaria a los estudiantes a formular una mejor opinion basada en la realidad de los hechos.

Tim Ton God Bless You! �College Changes You: Senior Experiences on Spring Break By JEREMY ZAGARELLA f or The Pride College changes you. I had always been told it but never believed it until recently. Being a senior at CSUSM, and with my graduation quickly approaching, I have recently been reflecting on some of the more important things that I have learned during my short time of study. As Spring Break approached I like everyone else I know was imagining myself lounging around somewhere—anywhere—waiting for the next hour to pass and trying to think of anything but school. While I was getting used to the idea of just laying around the house for a week-due to my low funds—I received a call that some could only dream of. The phone rang; I picked it up. It was an old friend of my brother's whom I hadn't talked to in years. What Dave proceeded to ask floored me. After the expected small talk, he commenced to ask me if I would be interested in going on a trip with him (expenses paid) during my Spring Break. "Where to?" I asked. "How does South America strike you?" "South America!" In less than 24 hours from that phone call, I was on an American Airlines 747 on my way to Chile thinking this is the stuff movies are made of. The scoop was that Dave was taking a whirlwind trip to a remote tribe in the mountains of southern Chile in order to drop off needed medical supplies for a humanitarian organization. Surreal is the only expression to describe my feelings of disbelief. Three days into the trip, Dave and I found ourselves the guests at a cultural ceremony of the tribe that we were assisting. I was better prepared for what was to come than Dave. Dave had grown up in a very ethnocentric home where he had seen very little of other cultures. He differed from me in that he saw the South American tribe we were with as ^others" instead of members of a unique and varied culture with its own history and heritage. For years I have been involved in varying ethnic/ cultural activities at CSUSM including helping to organize Pow-Wows with the Native American Club, Aztec dancing festivals, and even some native African cultural displays that took place on the campus. The respect and knowledge of diverse cultures that I have gained through this experience could never have been received at another institution. During that Wednesday morning, I saw the difference in Dave, who did not have the privi- lege of a CSUSM education. As we sat on the far side of a natural amphitheater in which the ceremony was* to be held, the sun was just coming up and the condensation could be seen emanating from hundreds of mouths in the gray morning light. The amphitheater stretched about the course of a football field, with a small hill at the base acting as a backdrop for both sound and light. As the ceremony began, we gazed intently. I was getting a chance so few would ever get. About 100 women came out dancing a soft and gentle dance while holding young babies in their arms. The women wore no coverings at all and neither did the infants they held. At this instant I noticed a distinct difference between Dave and I—it would be one of many through out the ceremony. As the women danced holding the babies, Dave got a bitflushedin the face and started to laugh. I asked Dave what was wrong, and he began to make fun of the women's nudity. Dave was unable to look beyond his Westerri-American, social-economic, culturally constructed taboos to see the beauty of the women's dance. Dave's insensitivity only mounted as the ceremony moved on. The women would dance in a vague circle as the onfookers sang a gentle melody. One by one the women began to move toward a man tied to a horizontal log at the far end of the amphitheater. I hadn't noticed the man before the dance moved his direction in a lovely beat. Dave finally turned to me and suggested that he had seen enough. I could tell he was disturbed by the natives' comfort with being seen nude on stage. I mentioned that his problem was that he was seeing these people through his own culture. If I learned one thing in my two years of Study, it is the foolishness of judging any cultural practice by my own culturally produced taboos. I encouraged Dave to stay but he insisted on leaving. Knowing I would be a fool to leave, I stayed. It is impossible to explain the way I felt at that moment, and sometimes it all feels like a dream. As theflrstrwomenmoved toward the man on the log, she straddled the man and began to have sex with him while still holding the infant in her arms. The act signified an open social outlook on sex and rebirth that, while it probably would have shocked a more uneducated mind, was refreshing to me. There was no shame for these women as, one by one, they all commenced to straddle the man on the log and have sex. I was reminded of one of my professors who had just weeks ago lectured on different cultural constructs as it related to sex. In his lecture he had mentioned how one culture could not judge another's practice, as all of our taboos are constructed by our social and cultural concepts. I noticed the singing in the crowd got louder as the first woman began to dance more and more enthusiastically lifting the infant above her head. I was taken with the sheer grace the dancer's moves. She moved quickly from side to side in front of a large triangular stone and all at once thrust the infant's head down upon the point of the rock. One by one the women would execute this rite after dismounting the man on the log. Of all the ceremonies of the tribe, this was its most sacred. I thought how glad I was to have been through my years of study at CSUSM before coming on this once-in-alifetime trip. I thought how disturbed Dave would have been had he stayed for the rest of the ceremony, and how insensitive Americans like Dave could be toward other cultures. At that moment I knew what all those people had meant when they said, "College changes you." *****Photos courtesy of www. dddb. simple net. com A re S tudents T hat Lazy? By JAMES NEWELL Pride Staff Writer When I was walking out of my class the other day, I witnessed an act that needs to be addressed. As I approached the double doors by the elevators in University Hall, I reached out to grab the handle and open the door. To my amazement, the doors swung open automatically. I stepped back just in time to see an able-bodied guy with . his step-out-of-my-way gait slip agilely into the hallway. Please correct me if I'm wrong, but isn't there a handicap logo on the buttons that control the automatic doors? I was just wondering, because I thought they were provided to help individuals with different needs gain easy access to all areas of the university. Let me touch on some aspects Then there is the factor of of this ridiculous behavior. How our planet, everyone should try money.

For example, if everyone decided to disregard the energy crisis and leave one extra light on in their house all of the time, we would all be left in the dark. Instead keep the extra light on in your head. Don't waste. Lead everyone into the light. Why would you even use the automatic doors in the first place? It doesn't take more time to open the doors with your hands; most likely it takes less. Why not use a bit more of your own energy, rather than wasting natural gas, oil or nuclear energy, which are so very limited? Are you that cool or just that lazy? Now there is a closed question. No need to think, you can just pick the answer that sounds best. I'll even help you along if you are still confused.
