Get to scboot early for parking
Tha strained relationship between the
campus and its police department has
widened over the past year. Since the
implementation of a task force to help
alleviate the problem, students, faculty
and staff have been waiting for a way to
help to bridge the gap.
The police have lined up a course
that will help the campus and their offi"We want to help our

cers work together as a team. Though
implemented prior to the incidents
leading up to the task force, the police
department wants to "reach out to the
community,'' said Lieutenant Douglass
Miller of Cal State San Marcos Police
Department.
The course, titled Citizen's Academy,
will be held over four days and offer several courses on police work. Every officer will teach a course in their area of
expertise. The classes will heip educate
the campus community on police procedures.
The courses include several hot
topics on campus, including what is a
hate crime. The purpose is to help the
campus understand what a hate crime
is, "there is some confusion," said
Miller. The goal is clear up any confusion Each course will offer a class,

Other courses include what it takes
to be a cop, terrorism awareness, crime
scene techniques, and narcotics recognition. The crime scene techniques
are expected to be a fun class with students learning how to lift fingerprints
and acquire D.N.A. samples. Specialty
classes like terrorism awareness and
D.N.A. will implement the use of outside expertise.
"We want to help our community
become partners in fighting crime on
campus," said Miller on why these
classes are essential for people to attend.
"We are looking for a diverse group of
people to make up the class," said Miller.
The class will hold up-to 30 people, and
they are hoping for members of faculty,
staff, and students.
The training will run from Oct. 25
until Nov. 15 and will include about
eight hours of training.
The campus police offer other training
throughout the year; including R.A.D.,

A greeting and an invitation from The Pride's new editor-in-chief
A letter from the editor is not
a common occurrence for The
Pride, but I thought it would be
a good time to introduce myself
as the new editor-in-chief. The
decision was made last school
year to combine the co-editors
positions into one giving me the
opportunity to give the readers
the best paper The Pride staff can
produce.
With the new semester starting,
the journalism class has no advisor hired and only three people on
staff trying to put this first paper,
so please be kind while critiquing it. I have my work cut out for
me building an almost entire new
staff of writers from scratch. Here
is where I would like to shamelessly plug the golden opportunities awaiting any lucky student
who would like to join the newspaper team and make history this
semester by writing gems for the
campus to read. With hard work,
late nights and little pay, your
name can be in print.

the team as an editor or writer,

�Cougars have a bright future ahead
BY PATRICK B. LONG
Pride Staff Writer
With the passing of the athletic referendum
last semester, sports programs at Cal State
San Marcos have a bright future ahead of it.
With new increased funding supported by
the students, current programs will remain
and new teams will be formed to give Cougars a lot to cheer for.
We would really like to thank the students for passing the referendum," said Stephen Nichols, Cal Sate San Marcos' athletic
director.
This year, the Cougars will be returning
with men's and women's golf, cross country,

and track and field. With the new funding,
the new teams will include women's softball, men's baseball and men's and women's
soccer.
"Women's golf is looking good this year,"
said Nichols. Last semester ended well for
the Cougar teams, with the women's golf
team reaching the top five of the national
championship of NAIA.
Kenny Adams finished in third place at
the nationals for men's golf as a freshman.
Track and Field will see the return of top
ranking athlete Ann Marie Byrne and their
chance to win the championship.
The current sports are not deemed as
spectator sports but the new teams will give
a place for Cougars to go and cheer on their
teams. The new teams will be in the NAIA
league and will start as soon as fall 2006
beginning with soccer. In spring 2007, the
baseball and softball teams will be introduced.
"Currently we are looking for coaches,"
said Nichols. When they are hired, the
coaches will be introduced to Cal State San
Marcos in an open forum.
The soccer team will play track's center
field, while the plans are in thé works for the
home of the baseball and softball teams.
The intercollegiate sports are not the only
activities offered for students. The Associated Student Incorporated (ASI) offers
intramural sports, where students can sign
up on teams to play each other. In the „past
such sports as baseball and dodge ball have
been offered.

-Why thejoji
market sucks
An examination of a graduate's
search to find his or her place
in the world comes down to a
simple comparison of what education meant in the past and what
it means in today's job market.
When I graduated from college, I had eight years of work
experience with six of those years
as a manager. When I applied for
white-collar professional jobs, I
did not land them. When I applied
for blue-collar work, similar to
the work I had done before, I did
not get those jobs either. I was
in strange place for sure since I
could not reason out in my head
what I was lacking. Mixing my
age - 29 now, 27 when I began
my career search - and my experience as a supervisor/manager
in the blue-collar/service industry put me in the unique position of being both overeducated
and pver-experienced. That is a
hard little pill to swallow when
I thought I had done everything
right in terms of work and education.
The fact is this is not our parents' education; it is not our parents' world. Simply put there i s
no reward for your education in
terms of a career being handed to
you after graduation.
It seems to me that the argument
used to convince middle and high
school students to go to college
was the possibility of landing a
high-paying job as reward for your
commitment to education. That
argument is dead - post-graduation life is not about your reward, it
is about what you

can do for a prospective employer.
If, as in my case, you present yourself as a blue-collar worker with a
history degree, then there is not a
lot of appeal to employers on the
professional end of the work spectrum, at least the beginning.
That being said, there are no
regrets in pursuing higher education. Quite the contrary since I
plan to return for a M. A. in history
as soon as the program becomes
a reality at Cal State San Marcos
(remember the part about delaying the big student loan payback).
A history degree will take you in
strange directions as you work
on it - take it from me, nervous
breakdowns and strange realizations come fast and often when
undermining the foundations of
your knowledge. All that said, I
don't think I would have picked a
different major if the opportunity
was presented to me; it is worth
it now and I am sure it will be
worth it in the long run.
Holding the line
For me, the 18-month frenzy
ended when I landed a copy editing/page designer position with a
local newspaper, albeit only part
time. But the opportunity to be
on a staff working in newsroom
is its own reward - the newspaper industry is truly a foot-in-the
door line of work. • : •:

the search for full-time work. For
someone trying to break in the
business of news writing, freelancing is a good way to pad your
portfolio along with getting some
money for your work as well. The
downside to freelancing is it is
hard to make a living at it especially in San Diego County.
Another help, from what I hear,
are internships. Although I never
did an internship, I know of one
former Pride staffer who landed
a job right after graduation after
completing two internships in
one semester. I understand that
internships are a lot of hard work
with little or no compensation,
however, but I think the value of
internships is immense.
Others I know have moved away
all together tofindwork. I hear that
is a good move if you can stand
being away from San Diego.
Failing everything else, holding
the line with meantime job, like
plumbing.which I did, pays the
bills and puts the mind at ease.
I do not want to come across as
negative about the entire experience
offinishingcollege and looking for
a job. I, more or less, want to offer
a reality check for students coming
in or checking out this year. There
is nothing to replace the education
I received at Cal State San Marcos.
Looking toward the future, the postgrad life seemstobe on the rise.
It is that first* few months, years,
whatever time it takes t o : endure
the rough waters and cutyour teeth
in the real world that will test your
mental and physical endurance.
Stick with it, you will better for it.

Heath Ledger (left) and Matt Damon (right) played the roles of brothers Jake and Will Grimm.
BY PATRICK B. LONG
Pride Staff Writer
Terry Gilliam returns to the director's chair
since "Fear and Loathing in Las Vegas" to
guide Matt Damon and Heath Ledger as "The
Brothers Grimm." Even with some classic Gilliamfisheye camera shots and obscure characters, the story falls short of good.
"The Brothers Grimm" brings to life the
famous brothers who wrote classic fairytales
in the early 20th century. The movie portrays
the two in a newfictitiousstory as two con-artists meandering from town to town in French

" American
occupied Germany, excising fabricated ghosts,
witches, and demons. When called upon by the
French government, the brothers are forced
to deal with an actual enchanted forest and
curse.
The plot cleverly alludes to some of their
most famous fairytales, including "Little Red
Riding Hood," "Rapunzel," "Cinderella" and
"Hansel and Gretel."
The trouble with the plot is its inability to
combine them into a good plot. The writing
seems choppy and the dialogue forced. Even
Gilliam has trouble creating the illusion that
Damon is a good actor. I felt as if I was watching Matt Damon's doppelganger from "Team
America: World Policy."
Positive elements do occur in "The Brothers Grimm," including the special effects. The
introduction of fairytale characters comes at
a price. Gilliam is well known for going over
budget for his movies, and it appears he spent
the movie on great computer graphics. The set
design was excellent and has always been an
intriguing element of Gilliam's work.
Overall, the movie feels like small skits of
bad acting combined to make a movie. The
story is stuck somewhere in space never finding
a home in the region of comedy, action, or even
horror. Some scenes left me confused whether
to jump or laugh. This misdirection adds some
confusion to the plot and who the movie is
geared for. The combination of classic figures
in literature is not new either. Recently it was
tried in "League or Extraordinary Gentlemen"
and "Van Helsing." It was a nice attempt but
not worthy of the silver screen.
