Koenig The annual International Festival has become a short-lived tradition at Cal State San Marcos as dwindling financial resources forced the event to evolve into something new. The university's first "Questival" will debut i n its place Oct. 23. "The festival has always been what (university) President (Bill) Stacy called the premier outreach (to the community) for the university," said Bonnie Biggs, who now chairs the committee responsible for putting together Questival. The main reason for the change, according to Biggs, was the loss of the International Festival's un• "' ' : . • ' S§! p||gPhotofcyRoman S. Koenig derwriter Itoman, a Japanese company. Rather than having an event showcasing the theme of world community, t he focus of Questival will be educational, explained Biggs. "Who are we really trying to reach out to?" Biggs described as the big question for the event. It was decided t hat the focus should be on children, since they will be CSUSM's f uture students. It was decided t hat Questival should be "something t hat would showcase our treasure — our faculty, our students and our Mission Statement," Biggs continued. "I agonized at home with my husband" trying to come up with a name for the event, she explained. The event was a quest for knowledge, and her husband, jazz musician and CSUSM alumnus Gunnar Biggs, S I fli By Roman S* Koenig came up with the name "Questival." • - V f , J| " While Questival will still have entertainment, food and crafts with an international flair, the primary focus will be on creative learning activities for children, f 11 "I thmk it's been nmmng smoothly..

CSUSM, which admits freshmen and sophomores for t he first time in 1995, created t he position to develop a core of lower division curriculum and related programs. "Rather t han follow traditional curriculum used a t o ther universities, CSUSM will take this opportunity to forge new ground," Funes explained. " CSUSM's lower division curriculum willije inclusive, interdisciplinary, and involve students in active learning," he continued. "The University's innovative approach to education includes an emphasis on t he global context and will require students to take classes on race, gender, and class issues and will also integrate technology into t he classroom. By educating students around broad themes, t he courses will provide our students with a broader view of t he world and train them to think critically about t he choices they will have to make as citizens." The university's General Education Task Force, through its deliberations, laid t he groundwork for t he new director by developing an innovative approach to lower division education. As t he Director of General Education, Funes* job will be to implement t he committee's recommendations. In addition to Funes, more t han 20 CSUSM faculty members will be working on developing t he lower division. "I know t hat CSUSM will develop a cutting edge general education program under Dr. Funes* leadership," said Richard Millman, provost and vice president for academic affairs. "So much of our general education plans are based on collaborative teaching and learning t hat t he leadership of this program will be required to have great skills in working with others and getting top quality in a group environment. "The combination of t he experience, t he expertise, t he interpersonal skills, 'Rather than follow traditional curriculum used at other universities, CSUSM will take this opportunity to forge new ground.' CSU San Marcos celebrates five years TTUve years ago, California S tate UniJl versity San Marcos opened its doors to 448 students at a business park on Los Vallecitos Blvd. Today, CSUSM has its own campus, and enrollment topped 2,531 last spring. Next year, freshmen and sophomores will make histoiy when they join t he campus. C elebrations c ommemorating t he university's young existence were t he highlights of an Aug. 24 convocation and a founders' dinner Sept. 1. "In a place so new, it seems odd to speak of institutional history," noted CSUSM President Dr. Bill Stacy in his State of t he University address a t t he convocation. "While such a histoiy is considerably briefer t han those of our sister campuses in t he CSU — and, for t hat matter, of any s tate university in t he country — it is our history, and i t's all we have." S tacy h ighlighted s ome of t he university's accomplishments. When t he university opened in 1990, 12 founding faculty had been hired. Today, t he faculty number 125. CSUSM's Mission Statement was also created to serve as a guide for t he university's development. "Most of you in this plaza created a Mission Statement worthy of our respect, 17 majors and 14 minors, eight teacher credentialling programs, a nd t hree masters degree programs, fully accredited by WASC (Western Association ofSchools and Colleges)—even ahead of schedule," Stacy continued. Stacy also outlined challenges for t he next five years. One of those goals is to create a feeling of communal ownership. "Our challenge for t he next five years is to continue to move t he notion of t he individual owner from 'this is my university' to an interconnected network of owners/partners who act from a perspective t hat ' this is our university/" he said. The WASC accreditation proposed several recommendations for t he university's growth, according to Stacy. Areas t o focus on include creating a diversified s tudent body, an assessment approach f or s tudent academic c ompetencies, and embracing e ducation t echnologies. Stacy outlined six points for what h e c alled t he Dr. Bill Stacy u niversity's n ext five-year plan. The first of those is strategic planning, with a focus on defining t he university's role and image in t he community. "Our newness gives u s in this next fiveyear plan an eroding chance to strive for something distinctive for our university," he said. Next, Stacy discussed t he need to prepare for incoming freshmen and sophomores, and how their presence will impact student diversity, space, academic programs and financial obligations. Another concern for t he university is capital construction. This concern has increased since the defeat of Proposition 1C last J une. CSUSM must find a way t o manage t he situation if a similar proposition fails in November, said Stacy. Budgetary goals for t he university include a new organizational direction, with a focus on campus vision, objectives and accountability r ather t han t he "line item" approach, he explained. CSUSM and the entire s tate university system are already moving to t his approach, Stacy added. Finally, Stacy discussed how the university is committed to supporting technology on campus, tempered with t he need to be flexible a s technology changes. Stacy ended his discussion on a positive note, saying t hat "If we work toward an ownership t hat is 'our university'... I believe our university will be able to accomplish all t his and more." Dr. Don Funes, General Education director and the vision of Dr. Funes and the high caliber of our faculty will lead to a general education program t hat is exciting to t he students, innovative, and successful." Funes joined CSUSM in 1990 from Northern Illinois University. His former positions as Liberal Studies program director and Visual and Performing Arts program director have been filled by Dr. L ionel M aldonado a nd P rofessor Deborah Small, respectively.

At t he meeting of t he San Diego Area Council of t he Boys and Girls Clubs of America, F ifth Dimension was honored with a "Distinguished Program Award" for contributions to t he educational programming a t t he Boys and Girls Club of Escondido. Although these awards are usually given t o in-house programs, t he F ifth Dimension's unique program of collaboration between t he university and t he Boys and Girls Club led to an award to both t he host club and to t he CSUSM. The award was accepted on behalf of t he University by Karen V. Swaine, a CSUSM student who worked on this project for more t han two years. The F ifth Dimension Program is directed by Dr. Miriam Schustack, professor in psychology, and Dr. Patricia Worden, associate dean of t he College of Arts and Sciences. I t is a part of a multi-site research project supported by a grant from t he Andrew Mellon Foundation. The program was designed to increase children's literacy through a voluntary, recreational afterschool program. Undergraduates from CSUSM supervise and play with elementary-age children in structured game activities. Students join t he children in activities t hat enhance a variety of academic skills such as reading, writing, math, logic, problemsolving, and computer use in an atmosphere t hat is quite different from a school classroom. Students receive scholarships California State University San Marcos has awarded two scholarships to students for their academic achievements. The first recipient of t he CSUSM Fallbrook Art Association Scholarship is Diana Mcintosh of Carlsbad. Mcintosh, a visual a rts student, received t he $500 scholarship based on t he recommendation of t he CSUSM Visual Arts faculty. She has completed t hree murals emphasizing Native American history. The California Retired Teachers Association Laura E. Settle Scholarship was awarded to Jennifer Jackson of San Diego. The $1,000 scholarship is given annually to a CSUSM student entering t he teaching profession, who has excelled academically. Sanders given two-year fellowship Sabrina Sanders of CSUSM has been accepted as a Fellow in t he National Association of Student Personnel Administrators' Minority Undergraduate Fellows Program (MUFP). Sandra Kuchler, CSUSM's Associate Dean of Student Affairs has agreed to serve as Sabrina's mentor. The Minority Undergraduate Fellows Program is a two-year preprofessional experience offered t o high achieving minority undergraduates. The mission of t he program is to increase t he number of minorities in student affairs and higher education. Sanders will work with Kuchler and take part in campus-based experiences related to student affairs. Sanders will also attend a three-day leadership institute and will be provided opportunities for professional mentoring, networking, and learning about graduate preparation programs. Opportunities are also available for Sanders a s a second-year Fellow t o participate in an eight-week paid summer internship designed to provide professional experience and exploration of a career in student affairs and higher education administration.

Grant will help globalize curriculum California State University San Marcos has received a boost in its quest t o develop a curriculum based on t he institution's Mission S tatement. CSUSM received a $75,000 grant from t he U.S. Department of Education's Title VI Undergraduate International Studies and Foreign Language Program. The grant may be extended t he following year for a two-year total of $150,000. The university is currently developing lower division courses in preparation for its first freshman class next year. The grant will be used to support t he internationalization of CSUSM's new general education core curriculum and to develop foreign language instruction. "The g rant makes it possible for t he University to realize one of t he f undamental t enets of our mission statement," said Dr. Peter Zwick, CSUSM's coordinator Richard Millman of University Global Affairs. "It will help us to provide CSUSM students with a truly international education." Zwick is t he project director for t he grant. Other members of t he grant writing team include: Stella Clark, Foreign Languages; Vicki Golich, Political Science; and Patty Seleski, History. "The grant is a tribute to t he team of faculty members who wrote it; Department of Education grants are extremely competitive," noted Provost and Vice President for Academic Affairs Richard Millman. "The excitement of integrating international concerns, language, and culture into t he first two years of university study is a wonderful idea. I t will make CSUSM an institution with a truly unique lower division curriculum." Grant funds will be used to s upport f aculty who develop courses with a strong international component, to introduce language instruction in Japanese this academic year, and to plan for the development of French and Chinese language studies in 199596. C SUSM selected for new federal loan program The Federal Direct Student Loan Program will now include California State University San Marcos beginning in t he 1995-96 academic year, U.S. Secretary of Education Richard W. Rilej&announced recently. CSUSM is one of 983 schools announced by Riley. They are among t he first to participate in a new streamlined system to restructure the nation's student loan programs. "These schools will have an opportunity to demonstrate t hat direct lending can indeed simplify t he administrative tasks of educational institutions, lower costs to taxpayers, and most importantly, provide b etter services t o students," said Riley. Under t he new program, t he federal government provides loans d irectly t o s tudents t hrough schools, reducing administrative burdens and increasing efficiency to make borrowing easier for students. By taking advantage of t he federal government's ability t o borrow money a t a lower interest rate, Congress expects t hat direct lending will save taxpayers billions of dollars. The new program also offers students a repayment option t hat tailors monthly payments to t he borrower's income. "I am pleased t hat t he San Marcos c ampus h as b een selected," said CSUSM Director of Financial Aid Paul Phillips. "I believe that t he direct lendingprogram will result both in federal savings and in more responsive service to t he students." There a re more t han 6,500 public, private, 4-year, 2-year, and proprietary schools eligible to participate ki t he direct loan program. CSUSM met t he following criteria for participation: participates in t he Federal Family Education Loan Program (FFELP); had a default r ate in the FFELP of less t han 25 percent in fiscal year 1990 or 1991; has t he technological capability to participate electronically; and has demonstrated administrative and financial responsibility. President Clinton's direct lending proposal, t he Student Loan Reform Act of 1993, was passed with bipartisan support by Congress as p art oft he Omnibus Budget Reconciliation Act of 1993 (P.L. 103-66). k/eiootKe to a new fondokPr- In your hands is t he first 1994-95 edition of The Pride.

Palomar patrons may get a free parkingpermit by stoppingby our Public Safety office in the University Services Building on La Moree. They may also buy a permit from one ofthe machines placed in both parking lots or use metered parking. Palomar patrons obtain borrowingprivilegesbybringingtheir current student or faculty ID to t he library's information desk. While reciprocal borrowers may borrow from our collection they are restricted from using interlibraiy loan, reserves and some specially licensed computerized resources. These services are still available through t he Palomar College library as well as some limited reference services, current periodicals and CD ROM databases. Finally, Palomar students are welcome to attend CSUSM library o rientations a nd w orkshops. Schedules are available a t the library's information desk. For further information, call 752-4340 "Where i s t he r eference desk?" is a question t hat many students ask when entering our library for t he first time. The answer is t hat there is none! Instead we have an Information Desk, information assistants and a Research Consultation Office. This is patterned a fter a reference and information services model pioneered a t Brandeis University. Here is how it works. The Information Desk (at the front counter where you check out your books) handles most quick information and directional questions and refers Users to a librarian when necessary. The information assistants, who are students, help with using the computer resources (CD ROMs and other databases) which are located close to the main entrance to the library. The Research Consultation office (adjacent to the Information Desk) is staffed by librarians who help with longer and more complex questions and research. This way, the librarians are able to provide more personalized and higher quality service than in a traditional reference model. The following are the hours t hat the Research Consultation Office is open. If none of these hours work with your schedule please feel free to set up an individual appointment with a librarian. Forms are available to do this at t he Information Desk or call 752-4348.

Think again By Mary Szterpakiewicz If you are thinking of going on to law school after graduation, and dreaming of t hat great-paying legal job, you may want to think twice about t hat decision. The April 1994 issue of the California Bar Journal states t hat "the nation's law schools will t urn out more t han 35,000 new lawyers this year; more than 6,000 of those likely will be admitted to the California bar." According to Law School Admissions Services ofNewton, Pennsylvania, they are projecting more t han 67,000 applications have already been submitted for entrance Photo by Roman S. Koenig into law school. Earthmovers were hard at work during the first week of classes for construction project Infrastructure II.

From the prospective new lawyer's view, it dims his or her chances at finding t hat dynamite job with a high starting salary. Statistics bear this out. In 1992, only 72.5 percent of law school graduates found full-time legal work within six months after graduation, according to the Journal. In 1989, by contrast, 81 percent found legal employment. Stephen Bundy, law professor at Boalt Hall School of Law, says t he increase in the number of lawyers in the last 20 years reflects changes in how law is used in our society. "The question is whether the growth hasn't outrun the social needs which drove t hat expansion," says Bundy. "My sense is t hat it has a little bit outrun the demand." Because schools are in the business of attracting students, their job is to entice you to attend their institution. It would be wise to do some research before leaping into law school. By t he time you graduate, your options may be slimmer than you anticipated. Spring 1994 Dean's List/College of Business Administration Andrade, Gary A.

Be nice: this month is for us media types While driving to school sometime last week, I came across an interesting item on a local morning radio show: this month is "Be Kind to Editors and Reporters Month." What a novel idea. In recent years the media (both print and broadcast) have taken a beating by people who seem to believe there is a predominantly liberal bias in what is being reported. Perhaps my view is a bit influenced because I am a member of t hat socalled "liberal media establishment," b ut I have had a difficult time trying to find any solid t ruth to this in today's mainstream media. Those who accuse the media of having liberal bias tend to be the ones who lost out during t he 1992 political campaigns. For t he first time since 1980, the Republicandominated executive branch lost to t he Democrats. Not only t hat, Democratic women swept California's two national senate seats. Is it a case of sour grapes? Perhaps. While the Democrats are trying t o enjoy their spot in t he sun, t he media has not been kind to President Clinton and his administration. Those who criticize t he media (like Rush Limbaugh and right-wing conservatives) make it seem like there are glowing reports of Clinton's success plastered across the front pages of national dailies. From general observations I have made, this is simply not true. When Clinton was running for president, what dominated the front pages? Allegations of a sexual affair with Jennifer Flowers—not particularly a "happy story" about his character. Again in recent months, network television news magazines focused on allegations made by a former Arkansas state employee t hat Clinton forced himself sexually on her. One thing right-wing critics of the media forget is t hat not all newspapers and television news shows are liberal. The San Diego Union-Tribune, Wall Street Journal l/iew Point ROMAN S. KOENIG and t he Orange County Register have traditionally conservative editorial policies. Television news magazines such as Pat Robertson's 700 Club are certainly not the bastion of liberal ideas. Most newspapers and television news shows have rightfully covered Clinton's successes, such as the passage of NAFTA, b ut during coverage of t he recent battle over t he crime bill it was clearly reported t hat Clinton was not favored to win. What bothers me most ofall is that those who so heavily criticize mainstream media have offered little if any solid proof that liberal bias is r unning rampant in the United States. The only place opinions belong is on t he editorial pages — whether they be liberal or conservative—and that's t he only place where I have found any "bias." T hat isn't to say bias does not exist. Indeed such publications as the Utne Reader and t he National Spectator have clear political agendas, Utne Reader on the liberal side and National Spectator on the conservative. During this month of being kind to editors and reporters, I ask those of you who judge me and my colleagues to give us a break for t he month of September, and take a good close look a t t he news media for solid proof of liberal bias. If any of you who read this are able to find such evidence of blatant liberalism, please bring it to me. I'd like to know—but be nice, and don't forget t he dozen roses. Students: don't be afraid to express your viewpoints Editor's note: The name "Janis" in this article is a pseudonym. "Janis" looked forward to her first class ofthe fall semester at Cal State San Marcos. It didn't go as she expected. She came away from t he class visibly upset. "I am sick of it," she said, referring to a classroom discussion which she termed, "juvenile." The things t hat were said had offended her. Such subjects as multiculturalism, global awareness, alternate lifestyles, reverse discrimination, were contrary to her traditional beliefs. When asked how she responded, "Janis" said, "I kept my mouth shut." . "Janis" takes her classes seriously. She is a mature student with a strong moral conscience. She had disagreed with t he ideas being expressed, but she remained silent. She withheld her feelings and she felt bad. How much better would she feel if she had spoken out? What held her back? She feared t hat her grade would be affected Per-gpesctiM YOUR VIEWS if she spoke out and revealed her true feelings. Also, she feared t hat the other students would laugh at her, make hurtful remarks, heckle her and embarress her. As we contemplate t he conflicts of this classroom situation we see the professor attempting t o elicit responses while maintaining control. We observe vocal students vyingforattention, pushing their points of view. Then we notice t he silent students and we wonder what they are thinking and how they are feeling. We may ask how many students like "Janis" are out there.

The right of free speech is guaranteed by t he First Amendment, and should not be subject to t he grading system. All students should be made to feel free to participate in open discussion. As a neutral party, t he professor should refrain from taking sides or expressing his personal biases. Students from all walks of life are seeking identity under pressure. Some have had permissive parents, are undisciplined in nature, exposing pervasive irresponsibility, and seekingindividual desires. T ruth has become realtive. Some have adopted a h umanist philosophy, multiculturalism, even t he occult. These forces are being acted out in t he hallways and now are boldly outspoken in t he classrooms. Where does "Janis" fit into this scenario? She has remained silent in t he classroom for what she considers good reasons. She has a right to be heard even though her ideas a re contrary to t he outspoken. If t he classroom is to be a liberal a rts forum, all ideas and all sides must be heard. This has far-reaching implications, for as Abraham Lincoln p ut it, "The philosophy in t he schoolroom in one generation will be t he philosophy of government in t he next." Where does "Janis" stand? She has a traditional discipline, respects her parental authority, exhibits exemplary behavior and h as a high sense of moral goodness. Her conscience gives her a sense of right or wrong. What she expects to learn in t he classroom does not change t he sactions of her conscience. She is eager t o learn b ut is h urt when t he professor deviates from t he subject and expounds his liberal biases. At t hat point, she feels like a captive audience under a n authoritive figure. If the classroom is to be a liberal arts forum, all ideas and all sides must be heard.' Irving F. Davis "Janis" and t he other "silent" ones like her have something to learn by honest introspection. "Janis" is upset by opposing ideas and may be quick to judge those whose ideas differ from hers. However, she faces t he challenge to head back into t hat classroom, loving her classmates—not for what they believe, b ut for who they a re — praying for those who verbally attack her and being a friend to t he outspoken as well as t o t he professor. By her example t he other "silent" ones, too, may learn to ignore t he criticism, take t he stand, and speak fearlessly for what they believe. By t his bold move "Janis" will break t he silence, be heard for what she believes, gain t he respect and following ofthose she influences and feel better, all a t t he same time. I rving F.

The requirement is mandated at all CSU campuses, although most students currently enrolled at Cal State San Marcos have already satisfied it, according to a press release on t he test. The ELM is a 75-minute multiple-choice test consisting of 48 intermediate algebra and 12 geometry questions. The passing score is 550 in a scale of 100 to 700. For those who have not satisfied the requirement, the test can be satisfied, by completing college coursework such as a statistics taken at the community college level, or a CSUSM course like Math 312. A satisfactory grade on exams such as t he SAT, ACT, AP and t he College Board Achievement Test can also nullify t he requirement. Those who have QUEST, YEAR OF GRADUATION ] scored below 550 can take Math 050 with a grade of C or better. The ELM must be completed by the end of this fall. Exam day is Oct. 15. Those who must take the test but haven't will not be allowed to register for spring 1995. To prepare for t he exam, students can take math tutoring from the CSUSM Math Lab, review intermediate algebra videos available from the Math Lab, test preparation workshops and ELM workbooks available in the University Store. Students who do not pass the Oct. 15 test can have a second chance on Nov. 12, or they can take Math 050 next spring.

Certainly, it h as been difficult for the entire student body to live without the almost overwhelming aroma of manure that permeates every inch of our fine, young campus. My s inuses were nearly acclimated to the stale, odorless summer air we've all been forced to inhale (with the notable exception, of course, the lucky few who attended summer school at the height of the cow dung breezes) and it i s certainly a relief to once again be able to deeply inhale with the promise of aromatic adventure. One's nose is never at a loss for excitement around here. . . The barbed wire fence surrounding the west end of the Academic Building is a nice new cosmetic touch. Surely it w as erected to help reinforce the environment of inclusiveness and community that we all cherish a s an integral part of the educational process. It i s undoubtedly j ust a matter of time before License Plate Making 101 i s added to our list of upper division requirements. . . There s eems to be an increase in the Fred population this quarter, much to the chagrin of the rest o fthe student body. Freds (so named in memory of the first smarmy know-it-all I encountered a s a college student) are those unique students who feel compelled to sit in the first desk of the first row of the class, leaving no professorial comment u n-analyzed. That is, Fred i s the guy allows you to catch u p on your reading for other c lasses every time h is h ands shoot up, the Howard Cosell of the classroom, the educational equivalent of Cliff Claven from Cheers. Freds seem to be predominantly (thougJTnof exclusively) male, and he appears to be most common in English (excuse me, Literature and Writing Studies) classes, and he u sually h as a plenitude of strange facial hair (not to be stereotypical, of course). It i s particularly exciting when Fred takes it upon himself to correct the professor, who always seems to have an amazing reserve of patience and understanding. Shouldn't there be some kind of law concerning student harassment? This kind of behavior i s definitely a s emotionally stressful and psychically scarring a s the whole Clarence Thom&sAnita Hill affair. . . It's about time somebody organized a student run copy service to provide instructor-compiled packets at a reasonable price. The book store i s getting away with murder. Why does everybody choose to conglomerate in the characterless, cafeteria-like Dome instead of the little-used, comfortable student lounge? Parking h as become a bit more of a h assle this semester with the increase in enrollment, but we've still got it incredibly easy compared to SDSU or UCSD or even Palomar. Rumor h as it that the cut in state funding to our university will result in the administration giving priority consideration to first and second year students over junior college transfers in the years to come. Necessary, perhaps, but unfortunate, and it will undoubtedly change the character of our campus. . . I go to c lass every day without climbing one stair. I take the Craven elevator to the 4 th floor, Jthe-ACD elevator to my desired destination. Slothful and proud.

One year ago, the University began an aggressive campus recycling program. The Solid Waste Reduction Planning Committee, with assistance from Mashburn Waste and Recycling Services, was responsible for developing and implementing a model university recycling program. This program has proven to be very successful. However, this is not a one time effort, but an on-going project. The recycling program implemented is easy and convenient. Special color coded recycling bins are located throughout the university and classrooms. • B lue - Mixed P aper • B lack - N ewspaper • R ed - Glass • Gray - C ans & p lastic Both trash and mixed paper containers are located in each classroom. Since food and beverages are not permitted in the classroom, appropriate beverage recycling bins are located in the hallways ofthe academic buildings for disposal of beverage cans and bottles. Recycling containers for beverage containers have been added to the student parking lot. Let's keep up the good work. PLEASE take that extra step or two to put your recyclables in the right container. If you have questions or comments regarding the recycling program, please contact Support Services at Ext. 4520.

No overwrought symbol or avantgarde camera technique is spared in Stone's cinematic crusade to pull the blindfolds off the eyes of unsuspecting, middle class Americans and show everybody the truth behind the lies perpetrated by the corrupt establishment. There is something alarming smarmy and self-righteous about Stone's peculiar blend of radical political didacticism and cinematic overkill, and in excruciatingly, self-indulgent drivel like Born on the Fourth ofJuly and The Doors, the effect is akin to that of repeatedly being hit over the head with a large hammer. Occasionally though, touches of genuine celluloid brilliance creep through Stone's overwrought lectures. Think of James Woods' edgy, complex war correspondent in Salvador, the sheer visceral force of the battle scenes in Platoon, or the dreamy, paranoid fevered vision that is JFK (Kevin Costner's goofy New Orleans accent aside). Stone's sophomoric intellectual ideals and brilliant cinematic sense run a head-on collision course towards each other in the new Natural Born Killers, and in the end, the victor is difficult to identify. This film is Stone's ultimate achievement—it is far more visually and technically ambitious than anything he (or very nearly anyone else) has attempted before. Stone throws all his old tricks and plenty of new ones into the mix, telling the story of a couple of gleeful cereal killers with animation, 8 mm footage, slow motion, black and white, montage and every other visual style possible. The film is a hyper mish*nash oftechnical and dramatic technique from beginning to nd, yet Stone never lets it e spiral out of control. There is a unity and consistency to this collage, a method behind the madness that has been missing in many of Stone's more conventional movies. One gets the feeling that this is the first time the director has been completely true to his marvelously unconventional artistic impulses, and the result is awesome, a kind of Bonnie and Clyde on acid. But y ou know t here's trouble brewing when, in various interviews, Stone tells us that there is an important message implicit in the film. Not content to dazzle technically, Stone has also attempted to make the movie a defining comment on our society and values. It is obvious that Stone intended Killers as broad social satire, indicting t he bloodthirsty media and the corrupt legal system as co-conspirators in the 52 brutal murders committed by Mickey and Mallory (Woody Harrelsonand Juliette Lewis), the films two main characters. In that respect, Stone shoots considerably wide of the mark. He has none of the ironic detachment or keen sense of human behavior that marks the work of an accomplished cinematic satirist like Robert Altman. Stone's idea of satire is merely to present a distorted, exaggerated picture of every character he wishes to indict—a dramatic enlargement that is somehow supposed to expose the hypocrisy implicit in the evil "system." But none of these characters (Robert Downey Jr. as a tabloid television reporter, Tom Sizemore as a psycho cop, Tommy Lee Jones as a corrupt prison warden) ring true because none of them are given any depth or dimension. We are presented with absurd, one-note, cartoon characters being used as proof of the rottenness ofall authority figures. It simply does not work.

That misstep, though, does little to take away from the movies sheer emotional power. Viewed without the prism of Stone's didacticism, Natural Born Killers is a mayor achievement. Harrelson and Lewis are both very effective in their roles, but it's Downey that steals the film with his ratings-hungry tabloid reporter, and host of "American Maniacs. Alternately shocking and wildly funny (often in the same scene), Stone is not afraid to play with taboos aboutviolence and brutality. The two murderers are the only remotely M sympathetic characters in the film, and the various killings are filmed as almost primal celebrations. It is cartoonish violence, to be sure, but Stone implicates the audience in the killings by turning them into sheer entertainment. That is the most effective message he can convey. �SPORTS & FiTNEss C lub" 746-1111 A menities: Racquetball Basketball Volleyball Wallyball • Lap Pool Indoor Track Free Weights Aerobics Nautilus Sprint Com Star Universal 2 Jaccuzzis 2 Steam Rooms 2 Saunas Cold Plunge Tread Mills Versa Climber Stairmasters Life Cycles Turbo Bikes Life Rower Karate Child Care Pro-Shop Juice Bar/Deli Hair Salon Chiropractor Skin Care Nutritionist Personal Training Group Rates Special Sporting Events San Diego's Best Athletic Club 101NIHG 1 994 The Great Amusement Park Getaway!
