With 200 students voting in the Oct 7 and 8 poll, Measure B, which approved the fee, passed by a landslide 73 percent of the vote. An enabling measure allowing the A.S. to collect the imposed fee also was . adopted with 8 2 percent of the student vote. Along with the f ee measures* Measure C, which established principles of remunerations for A.S. Council members, also passed. The measure squeezed by with a 5 2 percent "yes" vote. "We are surprised and pleased by the results,"said A.S. President JoseChapman. "It proves that all the work on the elections did not g o for naught." • • ? Last April, students narrowly approved a $15 A.S. membership fee, but failed to pass the enabling measure allowing the organization to collect the charge. As a result, the A.S. turned to the University Foundation for a $12,900 loan to attain funds. Last week's victory will give the A.S. a steady source of income and provide funds to repay the Foundation's loan. "We were certain to make sure A and B passed," Chapman said. He indicated that translations for the ballot measures that were printed on the ballot helped students understand for what they were voting. The translations provided pro and con explanations of the ballot measures in terms students could comprehend.

Measure C stands for council 'conflict' When the Associated Student Council put a measure on last week's ballot asking for the principle of receiving rerttUnerations, they had no idea that it would cause a stir. Measure C, which passed by a narrow margin of six votes, asked students to apprcfve the idea of establishing and awarding scholarship stipends, grants-in-aid and other remunerations to A.S. officers and Council members. "I was surprised at the reaction to the measure since it didn't establish anything but a principle," said Vicc President of Student Affairs Ernest Zomalt. He said the proposition did not commit the student body to any type of expenditure of funds. But other students saw the measure as an attempt by the A.S. Council to award themselves monetary compensation, for their work. In a letter to Pioneer, CSUSM student William Christensen noted, "The A.S. is quickly imitating the politicians in Washington and Sacramento who give themselves pay raises, bonuses and fringe benefits." Barbara Pender, editor of the campus yearbook, said that students serving on the A.S. Council should do so without pay. She said she believes the work should be performèd on a voluntary basis only. A.S. President Jose Chapman said the A.S. did not actively campaign for the measure because measures A and B establishing student fees were the "thrust" of the election.

Panic disorder can be treated if diagnosed quickly, properly Recently, The National Institutes o f Health c onvened a c onsensus conference on a very common disorder and have agreed (which i s not always the case) that it i s very responsive to treatment. Panic disorder is defined as discrete periods o f intense fear or discomfort that are not triggered by severe anxiety-producing stimulus. Most people with the disorder believe they are having a heart attack or some type of severe impending doom without any obvious precipitating event. Therefore, panic disorder is frequently misdiagnosed and consequently not properly treated. Although r ecognized s ince the 1960s, known to occur in families, and being maybe as common as 1 in 75 people, panic disorder i s s o often misdiagnosed that patients frequently have seen 10 or more doctors before they are properly diagnosed. Patients need to have at least four of the following symptoms for the diagnosis: shortness of breath, dizziness, palpitations (increased heart beat), trembling or shakings sweating, choking, chest pain, abdominal distress, numbness, fear o f dying, and w e vjiew f HEALTHNOTES BY DR. JOEL GRIN OLDS fear of going crazy or losing control. A person who has four or more panic attacks in one month i s considered to have panic disorder. Some may have isolated attacks and may not require treatment. Others may have infrequent attacks but live in constant fear o f attacks and would possibly benefit from treatment. What is exciting is that there is consensus that treatment really works. Antidepressant medications, other medications and cognitive-behavior therapies have been found to be effective. Combinations of the therapies are being researched. Fortunately, people w ho have been rendered dysfunctional by this disorder are now being helped with current therapy.

If you're a student at Cal State San Marcos, chanccs are the person sitting next to you in class is areentry woman. Reentry women comprise onethird of the student population at CSUSM. Many times, they face different obstacles than their younger classmatesand have differing reasons for seeking a degree. "I sec reentry as a long-term trend," says Sandy Kuchler, director of Student Developmental Services. "Many people switch focus or careers several times in their lives. They have seen education as the key to reentering the job market or transitioning from one career to another." Kuchler says that CSUSM is a "testimony of the number of students that are not of traditional age." She indicates that the focus of this older student body is on life-long learning. Reentry i s a grey term. Students in this category range from 25-35 years old and through their 70s. These students are sometimes called "adult learners" or "non-traditional age students." The average age of a student at CSUSM i s 2 9, four years greater than the national average. Many reentry students have families and jobs to tend to outside of their studies. Time management, childcare, elder care, fears about skill level and unreal expectations are some of the common dilemmas of reentry women. "Balancing time i s the biggest challenge," comments CSUSM reentry student Tanis Brown. Student Donna Hinke agrees, "My struggle is how to juggle family responsibilities with study and class time." Kuchler says, "Deep down inside, women f eel they need to do it all. They just can't do it all at the same level." To help provide support for those issues of letting g o and o f lowering expectations, Kuchler developed the W omen's I nformation N etwork (WIN). "Ideally," s ays Kuchler, "this educational should involve the entire family or significant others who initially may be very supportive of the decision to return to school. However, when reality sets in and the student is nolongeravailabletohelpmeetneeds, . there i s sometimes anger and frustration to deal with." One of WIN's functions i s to help them battle those frustrations. But, because many reentry students have so many other responsibilities, "I see reentry as a long-term trend. Many people switch focus or careers several times in their lives. They have seen education as the key to reentering the job market or transitioning from one career to another." SANDY KUCHLER/STUDENT DEVELOPMENTAL SERVICES DIRECTOR providing a support group can be difficult. Kuchler says that many reentry women c ome to campus for just one class. For that reason, she says she is interested in hearing from women who may be interested in meeting at a time other than the scheduled meetings at noon on Tuesdays in the Student Lounge. Kuchler was a reentry woman herself, s o she i s sympathetic to the time demands on reentry women. "If a group of reentry women in one class wants to contact me, I'd love to get together and meet them," she says. Patti Elenz-Martin, a counselor in Counseling Services, also sees the reentry woman as plagued by business and responsibilities. "Sometimes hectic schedules can make students feel isolated or disconnected. I want to be sensitive to their schedules," says Elenz-Martin. "Some students may feel they don't have any options because they aren't aware of the choices or resources that may be available to them. Often, they have s o many classmates, they don't take time for themselves." Elenz-Martin says providing resources is a two-way street She is open to suggestions from students o f resources needed and workshops they would like to s ee offered. To provide information in a f lexible manner, Counseling Services and Career Planning offers a variety o f on-going workshops on topics like stress management, resume writing and an orientation to the SIGI computer programs for interest evaluation. Audio and video cassettes and pamphlets are also available to students. "Childcare i s another area of need on the agenda for the new facilities," Kuchler says. "Because o f tight state regulations, it is impossible to handle a childcare facility on our current campus." A childcare co-op is being formed and interested students should sign up in the Associated Students O ffice. Faculty members are receptive to the trend of older students. Dr. Ken Mendoza, professor of English, estimates that nearly 9 0 percent of his students are o f non-tradi- tional age. • "They havea stronger commitment to their studies, largely due to their l ife experiences which allow them to s ee a clear association between their goals, their experience and their university education," says Mendoza. �8 P IONEEB /TUESDAY, OCTOBER 15, 199!

Ami OUR VIEWS No soldier shall tered in any hous Columbus was important despite incorrect ideology There I was, sitting in the Student Lounge, eavesdropping as usual. Over there were these two grade school instructors discussing how to teach Christopher Columbus' discovery to their children. —Well, let's see, he discovered America. —Sure, but he was a bigot! —But nobody had ever discovered America, except maybe Leif Erikson. —He was a bigot too! —I think it's pretty important that he discovered A merica... — ... and started 500 years of oppression! You want to glorify a monster like that? — No, I guess you're right. We'll let the kids figure out for themselves who discovered America. Now, what about Lincoln Of course, the conversation may not have gone exactly as depicted, but I really wasn't taking notes. What I did note was the final insistence from both grade school teachers that Columbus be deglorified because of his belief in Manifest Destiny. Back then (a half a millennium ago) countries thought that they had a God-givenrightto claim territories. As a result, whole nations of people., like the American Indians, suffered from colonization and invasion. Obviously, with today'scrazc for political correctness, Manifest 'Destiny is hardlyan embraced doctrine. But, in the time of Columbus it was. When I was a child I revelled in stories of the age of exploration. Travelers like Magellan and Drake wererightup there with Captain Kirk in their quests for the unknown. Easily the most excellent explorer of them all was Columbus himself. It is difficult to understand all of the hullabaloo over Measure C in last week's Associated Students elections The measure seemed simple enough at first—asking students to approve theprinciple for awarding A.S. Council members stipends, grants and other forms of aid for work done in governmental meetings. Yet some saw the measure as a way for the A.S. to w easel i ts greedy fingers into the pocketbooks of s tarving s tudents. S ome state that the A .S. s hould serve without e xpecting or requesting STAFF EDITORIAL monetary awards. For children, d owngrading h istorical f igures, s uch a s Columbus, because they were trapped in time LARRY BOISJOLIE SEtSE PIONEER EDITOR-IN-CHIEF fal and social ideologies than our own, is counterproductive. It takes away their opportunity to cling to the ambitions of historical mentors. Just because Thomas Jefferson possessed slaves, for instance, doesn'tmean that he disregarded humanrights.JohnF. Kennedy's accomplishments cannot be ignored just because he slept with Marilyn Monroe. Bashing Columbus for beliefs that were accepted during his lifetime 4 99 years ago serves no purpose but to promote political correctness today. Who can say how the explorer would have gone about the business of discovering America in today 's society? History teaches us many lessons on many different levels. Our philosophies on how to treat others are directly gauged and formed by actions in the past but s o is the knowledge of the world around US'. Columbus taught us that there are always new horizons to be discovered and explored. Let's examine the man for that accomplishment and not stoop to mindless folly by nitpicking at his beliefs. Examining other A.S. organizations, it becomes readily apparent that such expectations are not realistic. Most A.S. council members throughout the Cal State system receive stipends from the student body. These stipends are paid for out o f student fees for the immense amount of time each member expends while serving on the council. Measure C does not award stipends to A.S. Council, it simply asked if students believe the principle of scholarships or grant-in-aid for council members is ethically correct. Why shouldn't it be? With a population that consists of one-third reentry women, CSUSM has a student constituency that is pressed for time and money. Many students have families and must hold a job while continuing studies. Taking time to serve on an A.S. Council can put an expensive squeeze on the pocketbook and limit income. The A.S. president's stipend of $ 3,600is barely a drop in the bucket for the time expended for the job. Most other CSUs award their A S . presidents stipends that are 10 to 2 0 times higher than CSUSM's. In addition, due to the small size of CSUSM and the newness of the student government, a greater time commitment for the president i s needed than at other schools. Many times he/she must serve on committees that are vacant from lack o f student participation. This time commitment does not allow the A.S. president to hold a work experience job apart from his/her other duties. Is token compensation too much to ask for such a sacrifice? When students are elected to A.S. positions, they are not elected into a priesthood where money and time must be sacrificedfor service. They areelectedintoacommunity that needs their services. In this case, thecommunity-at-large (students) should be receptive to the fact that fulfilling that need is costing A.S. members personally. �G overnor's veto of AB 101 j ustified: gay rights should stay home f rom work Pai State San Marcos IONEER C San Marcos, CA 92096 (619) 752-4998 E ditor-in-Chief L arry B oisjolie G raphics D irector J onathan Y oung A dvertising D irector: K aren W hitfield E ntertainment E ditor: D ebbie D uffy P hoto E ditor: K athy S ullivan STAFF WRITERS: Sheila Cosgrove, David Hatch, Elaine Whaley, Wendy Williams CONTRIBUTORS: Kim Courtney, Pamela Farrel, Dr. Joel Grinolds, Regina John PHOTOGRAPHY: Stacey Smith CARTOONIST: Daniel Hernandez Copyright © 1991, by P IONEER.

It was a place where men fought with swords and chivalry was not dead. FAIRE were treated to swordplay, medieval stage presentations, arts and crafts and authentic foodstuffs from the era. The faire was put on by the San Marcos Chamber of Commerce, to encourage and support the continued growth and educational activities in the North County area. It was only last weekend.

This is the quest of Don Quixote. fill j 111*?? Living in his own world, Quixote creates a w mmmmmmm^m society where he fights his adversaries and protects his friends. Whatever Quixote believes becomes reality to him. "Man of La Mancha," playing at the Civic Theatre in San Diego, recreates the spirit of Quixote with eloquent songs and superb acting. Performed on an elaborate stage, "Man of La Mancha" wanders through the life of Cervantes and his character, Don Quixote. The opening scene presents Cervantes, exquisitely performed by David Holliday (who also5 performs as .Quixote), as he and his servant are thrust into a prison. In order to avoid the other prisoners' abuse, Cervantes reveals a story about a traveling man, Quixote, and his trusty friend, Sancho, whimsically performed by Darryl Ferrera. All the prisoners within the prison interact in Cervantes' story by becoming characters for the telling of the story. Within Cervantes' story, Quixote encounters many different people, one of which he falls in love with and calls his "Dulcinea."

Aldonza probes Sancho about his obedience to Quixote, and he lovingly sings, "I really like K ATHY S ULLIVAN/PION EEK The crowd cheers as their favorite knight preforms acts o f heroism in a tournament of jousting and sword fighting.

This crown admits them as part of the retinue of their champion knight. The blue crowns sit in the blue section and cheer loudly for the blue knight as he represents them during the ceremonial procession and games. The Count and Countess of Perelada, who preside over the games and banquet, greet the arriving guests. Their costumes are exquisite as arc their manners. The next adventure takes the guests into a hall of torture. Here over 30 authentic reproductions of instruments of torture and ridicule used during the Middle Ages are displayed. In this room are devices that were commonly found in Spanish dungeons and jails. Items of cruelty like the "Rack" and the "Interrogation Chair" to items o f humiliation like "Scolds Bride:" and "The stock and Pillories." Although the room is very interesting the additional $2 charged for the tour seems excessive. Trumpeters of the realm announce the opening of the Grand Ceremonial Arena. Guests with theircolored crowns are escorted to their seats in the matching colorcoated pavilion-Serfs and wenches await the guests and begin serving Elegant displays of horsemanship highlight the pre-show activities at Medieval Times'Dinner and Tournament. Head trainer Victor de Lara is seen here demonstrating one of the specal jumps the horses perform during the show. the four course banquet In keeping with tradition, hands and fingers are the order of the day. And it is surprising just how great food tastes when one isn't encumbered with silverware. As guests enjoy their feast, colorfully attired knights and squires parade a team of championship Arabian horses. The feats of horsemanship are superb and the knights are true virtuosos of lance and javelin. After these warm-up games the countess gives knights flowers to present to a lady in his cheering sections. By the time the jousting begins the audience is intuned to their knights and to dismembering their whole chicken with eager enthusiasm, Many a cheer is given with chicken bones raised high. The jousting begins on horseback and continues on the arena floor with combatants using heavy SEE MANCHA/PAGE12 swords, battle axes and maces. As the audience cheers and boos the knights enact battles of old. The whole evening is one of fun and frolic. The acting, costumes, horses are superior: the food is good, the service terrific and the show entertaining. The knights are handsome warriors with nofonly tremendous accuracy with lances and swords but with beautiful and controlled horsemanship. "I started as a squire at Medieval Times," said Knight Michael D empscy." After about six months of hard work and long, daily training sessions, I finally achieved knighthood.".
