XIX NO. 7 Campus community unifies to oppose C SU budget cut BY ALEX HAND Pride Staff Writer The latest proposed cut of $386 million to the California State University budget has CSU students, faculty, and staff across California in an uproar. Approved by the CSU Board of Trustees for the 2008/2009 fiscal year, the cuts would force universities to t urn away more than 10,000 students statewide. The lack of funding would also force the system to once more increase student fees, lay off teachers, eliminate classes, and do away with many programs. Sprinter Light Rail launches this Sunday The entire CSU community has come together to fight for a common goal against the proposed budget cuts. Each of the 23 CSU campuses has launched a unified campaign that will begin in on March 3 at CSU Dominguez Hills. The following week, Mon. March 10, the second forum will take place at CSU San Marcos. CSUSM will hold its all-campus meeting on 1:00-2:00 p.m. in Arts 111. There will be media availability 30 minutes prior to each event. In hopes of "protecting the future of California" the cam- paign expects to prove the importance that CSU plays in the economy of California. Faculty, staff, and students alike will demonstrate that cuts to the CSU system would actually further damage the economy. To back up their See Budget, Page 2 Black History performers entertain during U-Hour Service to run along 78 freeway BY TORIA SAVEY Pride Staff Writer A fter several delays, the Sprinter light rail service will launch this coming Sunday. Built along the Escondido track of the San Diego Northern Railroad, the new service will be the f irst along the. tracks s ince the JSante Fe Railroad stopped passenger service in the area in 1946. The 22-mile long track, along the 78 freeway, will go through the cities of Oceanside, Vista, San Marcos and Escondido, and includes stops near Palomar College and CSUSM. While the North County Transit District has discount passes available to students of Palomar and MiraCosta colleges, there is no such agreement for CSUSM students. Service from various locations starts between 4 a.m. and 5 a.m. Of particular interest to students: the last evening train westbound from CSUSM is at 7:41 p.m., while the last eastbound t rain departs at 9:16 p.m. Monthly passes are $54, or $2 for a day pass. With the current high price of gas, the Sprinter may help students save money.

C SUSM customer satisfaction results Survey responses show opinions of available facilities and services BY ELBERT ESGUERRA Pride Staff Writer Earlier this semester, Finance and Administrative Services conducted an online customer service survey on various departments around the university. The survey asked various students, staff, and faculty about their level of satisfaction and netted interesting figures. Anyone interested viewing the results in full can visit www.csusm.edu/bsc/0708sat. htm. The figures from the academic 2007/2008 annual survey had a wide number of categories ranging from topics such as facilities, maintenance, university police, financial aid, housing, and parking services. The idea behind conducting Tuesday, Mar. 4 31 Women in 31 Days Forum Plaza the survey was to have different departments meet and identify areas for improvement around university services. Departments put together action plans that outline some overall performances and upcoming plans to improve certain areas as well. Some of the more interesting results came specifically from University Village Apartments (UVA) and University Police. From a study done with 331 participants, 55% answered "don't know" concerning campus crime prevention presentations. To go along with Crime Prevention Programs such as "Cougar Watch," University Police Department (UPD) has been producing videos which are available at the UPD website. A University Police and Liaison Program will also be implemented to provide additional avenues for communication with campus committees, students, staff, and police. The survey also determined that the UVA staff is invested and helpful toward the students there. Of the approximate 160 participants of the survey, 80.1% believe that they are doing exceptional services in addressing personal and social growth. 70.6% of those surveyed agreed or strongly agreed that resident advisors demonstrated an honest commitment to student welfare and activities. According to UVA Director Brian Dawson, "When you treat people like adults, you are given choices to act freely. Some people thrive on that and based off the customer survey, the majority feel that way." 7:30 p.m. ASi and UVA Texas Hold'em Tournament SSiliiiiÄllI Thursday, Mar. 6 12:00 p.m. a* Women's HERstory in San ö tego UCI hosts forum for graduate education BY TORIA SAVEY Pride Staff Writer On Sat. April 5, University of California, Irvine will host the California Forum for Diversity in Graduate Education. There will be a bus departing from CSUSM to UCI available to students signedup to attend the event. Although the forum is f ree, the Career Center requires a [checks only] $20 deposit to reserve a spot on the bus. The bus will leave promptly at 7 a.m. and return at approximately 6:00 p.m. The forum is held twice yearly - once in Southern California, and once in Northern California. It is designed to provide students from underrepresented groups with the tools and information to help them apply and be accepted to graduate schools. Some benefits of attend- ing the forum include meeting representatives from over 100 of the nation's elite graduate schools and getting f ree access to the Princeton Review's online prep course for the Graduate Record Examination (GRE). There are also many workshops designed to cater to specific areas of study, a few include: nursing, physical sciences and mathematics, and fine and performing arts. There will also be workshops designed to provide more general information about topics such as selecting and applying to graduate schools. Another important subject that will be covered is the issue of securing funding for graduate school.

With big name players such as M arian Hossa, Brad Richards, and Brian Campbell finding new homes, other big name players Olli J okinen and Mats Sundin stayed put, leaving questions for the o ff-season. 25 t rades later, it is t ime to discuss the t rades that went down and how t his can impact a t eam's f uture. L et's start with the Atlanta Thrashers who t raded Hossa and Pascal Dupuis for Erik Christensen, Colby Armstrong, prospect Angleo Esposito and 2008 d raft pick. Despite losing Hossa, the Thrashers added young talent that could bolster a talented f uture. The Pittsburgh Penguins on the other hand added help for Sidney Crosby and Evgeni Malkin. Hossa will now be able to play wingman to "Sid the K id" while raising the expectations for a long playoff r un. I am expecting them to be playing for the cup. The Dallas Stars were able to pick up Richards and Johan Holmqvist for Mike Smith, Jussi Jokinen, J eff Halpren and a 2009 first round d raft pick. The addition of Richards gives the Stars contending power against the Detroit Red Wings and Anaheim Ducks. The Tampa Bay Lightning added an upgrade in goaltending with Smith, while adding t hree young players and two d raft picks. This gives the Lightning an opportunity to rebuild a struggling team that had star power but lacked depth and goaltending. The Philadelphia Flyers added Jarslov Modry on Feb. 19 and Vaclav Prospel on Feb. 25. Modry gives the Flyers depth on the blue line while Prospel gives the Flyers some much needed scoring power with the loss of Simon Gagne for the season and while waiting for J offery Lupul to r eturn f rom a high ankle sprain. The last winner f rom the t rade deadline was the Anaheim Ducks who once again didn't make a trade. They kept their core of players and traded for a role player. One reason for not making dramatic trades was that they have watched the r eturn of last years Conn Smyth winner (playoff MVP) Scott Niedermayer and more importantly the r eturn of Teemu Selanne who has sparked some much needed offense. The r eturn of Selanne and Niedermayer make the Ducks the team to beat once again. But not all teams were winners this year. The Florida Panthers were lucky enough to find a buyer wanting Ruslan Salei. But they failed to trade Jokinen. The next question for Florida is who is going to be leaving. Jokinen or will coach/general manger Jacques M artin, I believe both will be gone. And the bigger loser of the two was the Toronto Maple Leafs, who watched all five players with no trade clauses use them to stay with the team. In the end, they were only able to t rade for a few low d raft picks, instead of gaining a h andful of first round picks. A team that looked like they were going to be able to be the biggest sellers got shut down by poor negotiating of contracts. No team should give five players a no-movement or trade clause, let alone to that many players with expiring contracts in the same year. The playoffs are near and teams are finally set for the final 20 games of the season. The question is who will be the winner, who made the right decision at the deadline and who will be the 29 losers who didn't make the right decision. No matter what, the playoffs are coming and I for one can't wait. Any comments or questions can be sent to churc009@ csusm.edu or pride@csusm. edu. Tuesday, March 4, 2008 Blood, Sweat Tears, Gas BY TORIA SAVEY Pride Staff Writer So, I just bartered my firstborn this morning in exchange for a tank of gas. Luckily, we've already discussed my feelings about children, so it was actually a win-win deal. The guy even threw in a Diet Coke. Kidding aside, not that I've been kidding so far, a lot of people complain about the cost of gas. But I'm not hearing a lot of these whining lame-cakes coming up with solutions. I have the answer though: We should go to war with a country that has oil and take theirs. Wait. That could backfire. Ok, I have a better solution. We genetically engineer more dinosaurs a la Jurassic Park. Once we're done teaching them tricks and studying them, bonding with our large new reptilian friends, we slaughter them mercilessly, and boom, more fossil fuel. No, I'm sure I can do better. We can just find ways to work without gas. I've heard a lot about these hybrid-electric vehicles. New plan: feral catelectric vehicles. People still aren't following that whole "spay and neuter your pets" thing. Answer to rising feral cat population problem? Teach them to pull cars. It'll be like running an Iditerod every day just to get to work or the grocery store. Since BST doesn't approve of whipping your sled cats though, I recommend that you train them to work on positive reinforcement. For every mile your 500 feral cats pull you, give them a bag of Skittles. Actually, I have a less messy idea. You could just carpool. Then you can split the gas cost between yourself and someone that you liked in the beginning but have slowly began to hate, a person whose inability to throw away empty pudding cups that somehow end up under your seat and snorting giggle you come to consider death-penalty worth offenses. Carpooling is delightful. You could just make sure you recycle your grocery store bags. In 60 years, if you recycle every single one, you'll have probably 50 mile worth of gas. Or better yet, just recycle all your beer bottles, and use the money to buy more Skittles for your feral cat mobile.

In game two, the Cougars had one of the more impressive pitching outings of the season f rom freshman, Brenna Sandberg, who gave u p only two hits, leading CSUSM to a 4 -0 win.

In particular, probiotic yogurt has taken the yogurt industry by storm, touting benefits of increased immunity, regulating digestion, and being a source of daily calcium. According to Lifeway Foods Incorporated, probiotics ("beneficial to life") are live cultures that provide health benefits beyond basic nutrition. Pat Kendall, a food science and human nutrition specialist at Colorado State University Extension, has also defined these bacteria as probiotic because they survive through the stomach to the gastrointestinal tract. Once in the GI tract, they function as favorable bacteria to maintain a healthy relationship between the 200+ kinds of bacteria that inhabit the GI tract. Researchers have f ound _ anfa, § ll 0ÊSm WÊÊt substantial evidence denoting that there are several strains of essential "good-for-you" bacteria that have the ability to promote healthy gastrointestinal functions, increase immunity and help prevent the development of cancer-causing toxins throughout the body. Currently, there are several selections of probiotics to choose from which include dairy sources [yogurt and kefir (a yogurtesque, dairy beverage with roots in the Middle East)], capsule formulas, liquid formulas, powder or tablets, and fermented foods such as sauerkraut. Kefir beverages usually contain ten cultures including the following: Lactobacillus lactis, Lactobacillus rhamnosus, Streptococcus diacetylactis, Leuconostoc cremoris, Lactobacillus plantarum, Lactobacillus casei, Bifidobacterium longum, Bifidobacterium breve, Saccharomyces florentinus, and Lactobacillus acidophilus. Conventional yogurts without additional probiotic supplement u su- ^mÈ^^ m ally contain Lactobacillus acidophilus, Lactobacillus bulgaricus, and Streptococcus thermophilus. Dannon's Activia yogurt has become quite popular and well known for its probiotic qualities. Activia is usually the introduction into the "culture" of probiotics. Student Michelle Bartolome is familiar with the probiotic yogurt from Activia and has tried Activia , noting that it tasted similar to conventional yogurt. Taylor Linkins, another student familiar with probiotics, commented that Activia tasted different from typical yogurt. Being a skeptical consumer is a natural response when bombarded with these amazing claims about yogurt. So what exactly makes probiotic yogurt so special? Most traditional yogurts on the market usually only contain one to two live and active bacterial cultures (usually Lactobacillus acidophilus, Lactobacillus bulgaricus, and Ifc, thermophilus).

Another point to address is the convenience of probiotic yogurt — one does not have to go about selecting probiotic supplements. Similarly, most probiotic yogurts promote healthy digestion and gastrointestinal functions with the addition of more bacteria cultures. Research is also being conducted to determine effectiveness of strengthened immunity and cancer prevention. So, how can one reap the benefits?

March is here, and that means this is the month that college students across the nation are in the spotlight with the all media eyes watching college basketball, spring breaks, relentless mid-terms and the 5th anniversary of the Iraq War, which significantly affects a great number of students and their families. This month, however, mtvU, MTV's Emmy award-winning college network, in conjunction with The Jed Foundation, which is the nation's foremost suicide prevention nonprofit organization, are heavily promoting mtvU's "Half of Us" campaign. According to the website, the " 'Half of Us' campaign derives its name from research showing that nearly half of all college students have felt so depressed they could not function, and addresses the reality that suicide is the second leading killer of college students." Though the "Half of Us" campaign is not new, in light of recent events nationwide, "Half of Us" is sponsoring new programs this month that are focused on stress and other emotional effects that this March in particular could have on students. "March is a month when the nation celebrates college culture, and this year we aim to use the moment to spark a dialogue about the serious mental health issues going unaddressed on college campuses - claiming the lives of countless students each year," said Stephen Friedman, GM, mtvU. "Our special 'Half of Us' March programming is part of a year-round commitment to chipping away at the pervasive stigma surrounding mental health, as well as connecting students to the necessary resources." The new programming offered at halfofus.com includes a feature special with Billy Corgan, the lead singer of The Smashing Pumpkins, who speaks out on how his success caused memories of an abusive childhood to surface, and how accepting those issues and seeking help and available resources can help students. Also debuting on the website on March 17, will be a discussion for Iraqi War Student Veterans, in which student soldiers from coast to coast talk about life after the war, getting back into the routine of college life and how they are coping with the challenges it brings. For this discussion, there will also be an acclaimed expert on Post Traumatic Stress Disorder (PTSD), who will offer advice to student soldiers and student veterans on what resources are available to them and how to get a hold of such resources. According to the press release for this month's programs, halfofus.com is also starting an mtvU and The Associated Press Mental Health Poll. The poll specifically aims to be "an in-depth look at the impact stress and depression are having on the national college audience—particularly at this pivotal point of the semester." The poll also hopes to supply a valuable look "into how the war, starting a career, campus safety, technology, substance abuse and other factors affect college students' stress levels and mental health today—and where they are, or are not, turning for help."

A new study led by C oBA Professor William Burns BY IVAN GARCIA Pride Staff Writer In the Fall semester of2007, California and its residents experienced the tragedies, panic, and potential consequences of the wildfires that plagued the state for weeks. Since the events of the California wildfires and even as far back as the events of 9/11, there have been numerous studies on the reaction of humans to these types of events. Dr. William Burns, a professor in the College of Business Administration here at California State University San Marcos, now has the privilege of studying the effects of these types of disasters with the assistance of some prominent professionals and distinguished organizations. "It's a myth that people panic in disasters. Research simply doesn't support it," states Burns. But adverse effects are not limited to panic, and the reactions that victims of these events have is the main idea of this study. Assisting Dr. Burns is the team of psychologist, Paul Slovak of Decision Research, Adam Rose and Garrett Asaey, economists at USC. As Decision Analyst of this study, Burns says he wishes to "examine and better understand the connection between people's responses to disasters, including terrorism." The process of surveying and presenting different scenarios to a multitude of people on varying levels of categories (income, ethnicity, location, etc.) will help this team of educated individuals determine the responses that many people might have to various disastrous events. Various people are asked multiple questions about how traumatic events would effect their psyches, economic standing, and personal decisions. These findings will help set a procedure for how we evaluate the different effects of an incident. This can include not only a person's reaction, but also media coverage, responses of the masses, and proce- dures to help community leaders and the public. This study can vary depending on the surveys. Many factors will be taken into account when it comes to this study. Factors like location, the individual, dialect, and the type of disaster will all drastically influence the reaction of the media, government, and public support. Panic would not be the first response to disaster, according to Burns. During 9/11 as well as the California wildfires, the support of the public was orderly and helpful as opposed to hysteria. Burns also mentions that if we all looked back at the news coverage during 9/11, a majority of the people in the towers got out safely using the stair case, meaning that the task of evacuation could never have worked if there was a majority of people climbing over others and watching out for only themselves. When asked how this study came into fruition, Dr. Burns said that "It really has its origins back in 2003...but mostly inspired by 9/11, we understand a lot about how the public responds to technological disasters and things. We might be able to use our expertise to get a better understanding on how people by respond to larger, natural disasters, and especially terrorism." Funded by the National Science Foundation, this will be a three-year long study with an almost $750,000 budget. The process of writing up, presenting, and reviewing this proposal to this wellknown foundation is a competitive and very selective process. With the potential that a disaster can occur at anytime, the outcome of this study will also affect students. "College graduates in particular will find their way into leadership roles and have the responsibility to help communities pull together to face the disasters of the future because they will be,, more than likely, in leadership roles. And our study will speak to those, and help them better understand how to do that," said Burns. Considering a Career in Physical Therapy?

Photo courtesy Steve Jacob BY AMANDA ANDREEN Pride Staff Writer the plot and the Directed by Wes Anderson, "The Darjeeling Limited" is a breath-taking, introspective film that follows three American brothers along a spiritual quest throughout India. Out of touch, and out of their minds, the Whitman brothers—portrayed by Owen Wilson, Adrien Brody and Jason Schwartzman—set out on a journey of self-discovery to rekindle their brotherly bond while mourning the death of their father. Making their way through India on a train, specifically the Darjeeling Limited railway, their plan is quickly dissembled, as they encounter unexpected challenges and settings. Eventually they find themselves lost, stranded, and out of luck on a new and uncharted route. Toting eleven of their father's suitcases, a printer, and a laminating machine, the Whitman brothers allow viewers to grow along with them as they experience each bump in the road and new scenario. According to The Onion's A.V. Club, it is theorized that there 16 films to which Anderson's style was most heavily influenced. Number 7 on the list is "The River." Anderson himself has mentioned that this film was the single greatest film influence on "The Darjeeling Limited." A1951 film directed by Jean Renoir and written by Rumer Godden is a dramatic romance about three teenage girls living in Bengal, India (all of English decent), coming of age and falling in love with the same man. In both films, this foreign country, India, is the core landscape for the fruition of It also becomes a place of healing ^fck | § ^^^^^^^^^^ DarjeelingLimited" * is not a romantic film in any sense of traditional ^ ^ ^ conventions, there is romance in the film between the characters and the scenery. There are also hints of romance threaded through the film as it ideally is a fully conceptualized after-thought to the previously released "Hotel Chavelier", which also starred Jason Schwartzman and Natalie Portman. As both "The River" and "The Darjeeling Limited" take their characters on a voyage through an unfamiliar land, both Renoir and Anderson recognize through their visual interpretations, that their stories veer more towards a location transforming the main characters than it is about interpreting the cultural identity of India for their audiences. That said, however, "The Darjeeling Limited" is all about Indian culture. It is the weird and wonderful things in India which the Whitman brothers encounter that change them and unite them. Along with the incredible acting on behalf of Brody, Schwartzman, and Wilson, together with the likes of Bill Murray and Angelica Houston, "The Darjeeling Limited" is a succulent DVD treat for any viewer or Wes Anderson fan, full of incredible actors, beautiful mis-en-scene, and a transcendental timeless story. this semester?

The dark brown glass bottle holds 22-fluid ounces of ale - a bit more than average. The labeling contains an image of a shadowy earth smiling down upon a turquoise tented moon surface. Psychedelic colors comprise the rest of the label. A black bottle cap with a shiny silver outline and the company's yellow logo of a smiley face caps the bottle with an alcohol by volume of 5.6%. It retails for $3.19 at BevMo. The ale pours thickly, creating a chunky and massive one inch thick head. A demonic black tenor fills the glass. The head resides for several moments before decreasing in size. However, a solid head remains for the duration of consumption. A distinct aroma arises from the evil mixture. Shockingly and disappointingly, the ale enters smooth and finishes mildly. The aromas and textures seemed to ensure a more Indiana Jones-like adventure. Instead, the ale's calmness projects Barney-like characteristics.

Uninformed viewers unfairly stereotype sci-fi films and television shows as "nerdy" or "geeky." This is not true, however, because not every "Star Trek" fan has abnormal acne, buckteeth, and a thick pair of glasses. If you desire to see what the buzz is all about, I have a few suggestions to expand your horizons. One does not have to be obsessive to enjoy these fine pieces of entertainment. A recent movie one could use to "cut their teeth" on is Danny Boyle's "Sunshine", released last year. Boyle who directed films such as "28 Days Later" and "Trainspotting," gives an impressive story about humankind on a mission to save the Earth. Years in the future, the sun is dying and a select crew is set to deliver a payload to reinvigorate it. Along the way, they receive a distress signal, which they answer and disaster ensues. It is an exciting and terrifying movie in space similar to "Alien" and "Event Horizon" and is well worth a watch. One does not have to worry about techno-babble that may turn people off, because as long as viewers pay attention, the movie explains everything. It is a story about testing humanity that just happens to take place in space. Along those lines, I am going to recommend a film that may make one shudder to consider. "Star Trek II: The Wrath of Khan" is an extraordinary film with action and excitement. People stigmatized this film as a program for geeks, which is unfair. For some reason, "Star Wars" has escaped the majority of the criticism, yet these two films are on the same level. It is a clever and engrossing from the very beginning. Not only does it deserve to have everyone watch it, but also earns the right to have the vicious labels removed from it. I have limited experience with "Star Trek" but I was able to pick this up and enjoy its many fine qualities. Finally, I recommend the works from the mind of Joss Whedon: "Firefly," and the subsequent film "Serenity." "Firefly" is the story of ship and its crew that roam the galaxy looking to get by years after humankind branched out from Earth and a civil war erupted. This television show ran for one season on FOX, who cut it, not knowing what a goldmine they had on their hands. Fans still fight for the show to come back and were delighted when NBC/Universal offered a deal to Whedon and made "Serenity." This follows the same crew on its ventures, where Whedon mixes the right amount of humor and explosions. The structure of these works is similar to a Western set in space and is engrossing and addictive to even first time sci-fi goers. I sincerely hope people will give sci-fi another chance and examine its fine achievements. It can be just as exciting and entertaining as any other genre. Also, do not judge addicted sci-fi fans. People consider a football fan cool for knowing every statistic about every player on every team from every year, but sci-fi fans are "nerds" for knowing about what interests them. Other movies, like gangster or crime films have their own lingo — science fiction should have the same rights.
