English department not loyal to Bookstore TUESDAY
VOLUME 66, ISSUE 12
By CINDY JIMENEZ Daily Titan Staff Writer
Joan Greenwood has a long memory. Ten and a half years ago the tenured Cal State Fullerton English professor put her book order in at the Titan Bookstore on Oct.1. She found out later that the order was not placed until Jan. 24, too late to have the book available to her students for the beginning of the semester. This oversight caused her to take her business to an off-campus vendor. The Little Professor has been that vendor ever since.
Asians in financial dilemma
n PROTEST: Because of past headaches, many English professors get their books through The Little Professor, but
Titan Shops still feels it can provide more convenient service. Greenwood said the English Department had many problems with the bookstore in the past. “The Little Professor turned in book orders on time,” Greenwood said, referring back to her bad experience with the bookstore. “I will never, never change from Little Professor.” Greenwood, along with other instructors in the English Department and other departments at CSUF, have had book ordering problems in the past with the bookstore causing delays in books being
available to students. This one problem seems to be a main reason instructors are looking elsewhere for their book business. Even as recently as three years ago, the bookstore did not order a required book for one of Greenwood’s collegues the same book Greenwood used and students were told by the bookstore to buy them at Little Professor, where Greenwood had her book. This caused a shortage of books for both classes. English professor Joan Gass has had
similar problems, claiming that the bookstore did not call her when her books were not ordered for the Mission Viejo campus. They told her there was a problem getting her book but when she checked with the book publisher herself she found out this was not true. She wrote to the Titan bookstore to complain but she said she never received a response. “I now am a part of a group of people who use off-campus bookstores,” Gass said. “They call if there is a problem.”

English instructor Howard Seller is a regular customer of The Little Professor but admits that the bookstore is doing good “at the moment.” “I’ve developed a loyalty to The Little Professor,” Seller said. They are very conscientious, checking with him when book orders need to be addressed, he said. Sellar said he now uses The Little Professor out of loyalty, not because of past problems with the bookstore. Titan Shops director Jerry Olson said
that they know years ago they did something wrong. “When we have made our mistakes we have mended them,” he said. Olson said he does not want to control all book orders. “If we had all acquisitions we would take away 50 to 60 percent of off-campus books,” Olson said. “(They can) stay loyal to whoever they want. It is difficult for the bookstore to be the primary source of materials if some instructors refuse to deal with the bookstore, Olson said.

Soldier against prejudice
n IMPACT: Asian currency
Imagine the fear of waking up one morning and the money you saved for college and other expenses had vanished. All of sudden you have no money to pay for school or living costs. You’re left with the choice of finding a way to earn money or dropping out of school. This fear is a reality for some Asian students at Cal State Fullerton, because of the economic problems in Asia. Many Asian students come to CSUF from their home countries to improve their education with the hope of giving their families a better future. Many families make great sacrifices to send their children to CSUF. Now, because the currency in some Asian countries is losing its value compared to the American dollar, some Asian families are discovering that they cannot afford to keep their children in school abroad. The economic crisis has dashed hopes and dreams. Asian students who came looking for a better future are having to return home feeling empty and unfulfilled. One Japanese student, who wished to remain anonymous, had to struggle with the decision of quitting school and going home. “I came to this country to gain an education so that I could return home and help my family and my people,” the student said. “For a year-and-a-half things were going great until this past summer my father lost his job as a high school teacher and told me he could not send me any more money for school. The news was devastating to me. I didn’t know how I was going to pay for school and my living costs. Fortunately I had some money saved up to pay for this semester. However, I do not know what I am going to do in the near future, because the money is running out. Cultural values in many Asian countries are closely tied to the work people do. As a result, when an economic crisis like this happens the people take it as a personal reflection on themselves and it causes great embarassment for people in some countries. Then you have an added complication of some cultural issues here, said Bob Ericksen, director of the International Student Office. These students are in all cases from the most impacted countries . . . where this whole situation has brought great embarassment and shame to those students. Many of them are reluctant to come share their problems with us. That is very unfortunate. The International Student Office at CSUF is trying to help Asian students

The Cal State Fullerton graduate motions to the couch, where he is seated. He says he had the first of his three strokes in a cell approximately the same size as the couch. Robert Nghiem Nguyen, 68, faces his brick fireplace, decorated with dolls and miniature musical instruments, from his faraway homeland. Looking at his native keepsakes reminds him of his life’s mission that, despite a nine year interruption, has consumed his entire life. Before 1975, Nguyen studied an ethnic minority in Vietnam, a group of people he called the Montagnards—or “mountain peasants”—as part of his military duties. He urged the Vietnamese government, which had persecuted them for many years, to treat them justly. “My Montagnard friends and soldiers were my professors, and their villages were my universities,” Nguyen wrote in a paper detailing his life. But in 1975, Nguyen, who was a soldier in the South Vietnamese army, was captured when the North Vietnamese took over the country. He spent the next nine years as a prisoner of the new communist regime. While in the prison, Nguyen suffered a stroke, temporarily paralyzing him and giving him double vision for two years. But his sight did return and his double vision did not blind him from his life’s mission: to help end racial discrimination in Vietnam and in the United States. Nine years after entering the prison, Nguyen was released and he picked up where he left off combatting prejudice. Studying the persecuted The Vietnamese government had been forcing
the Montagnards to assimilate into the Vietnamese culture too quickly, Nguyen says. In 1957, President Ngo Dinh Diem abolished their right to own land. The Vietnamese government did not allow the Montagnard’s children to be taught in the elementary schools and destroyed their textbooks On September 20, 1964, the Montagnards revolted against the Vietnamese government. Four other generals ordered Khanh to negotiate with them. Thus, Nguyen says, he helped avert a civil war. In 1967, the U.S. Department of States invited him to tour the United Stated to examine and study the problems of America’s ethnic minorities: the Polynesian-Americans in Hawaii, the African-Americans in Harlem, the Indians on a Navajo reservation in Arizona and the Chinese Americans in San Francisco. “When I visited the U.S ethnic minorities, I was so sad. So very concerned,” Nguyen said, as his tears gently soaked his eyes. “On a Cherokee reservation in North Carolina, I heard of the Trail of Tears. I cried so much. I hoped I contributed a part of a better understanding between cultures.” When speaking of his visits with African Americans, he said, “After the slaves were liberated, they had nothing, no land. They went up North to labor and the poverty cycle continues even now.” Becoming the persecuted Nguyen says he was prepared to die. When he was in prison, he went as far as befriending a Catholic priest, who annointed him with oil and performed last rites. “I could hear everything, but could not move even as the ants were biting me,” Nguyen said.

Cultural diversity often hidden under campus’ nose n CULTURES: CSUF’s
exchange students discuss culture shock they experience in America. By LAURIE SCHULTZ Daily Titan Staff Writer
Many people only see the visible, tangible aspects of culture. Some students do not perceive the culture any deeper than the Mexican dancers they see on Cinco De Mayo. The values, assumptions and unwritten rules of the Mexican culture often go unnoticed. “Culture is like an iceberg,” said Bob Ericksen, the director of the International and Exchange Office. “Ninety percent of it is below the surface.” According to Ericksen, 1,200 international and 3,000 immigrant students attend Cal State Fullerton. Fumiyo Araki, the international student adviser, was an exchange student in high school and college. She said she was constantly traveling back and forth from the United States and Japan. Araki earned her master’s degree in speech communications at CSUF. She married a man from Chile whose family mainly spoke Spanish. Not only did she work with foreign students during the day, but she came home to a husband of a different culture.
“My life story has been a constant culture shock,”Araki said. Lay Tuan McCarroll, the associate director of the International Education and Exchange Office, can sympathize with international students because she used to be one of them. McCarroll is also dealing with her bicultural child who sometimes asks her, “Mommy, why isn’t my hair as black as yours?” Darren Miller, a CSUF student born in Ireland, spent six years in England and attended high school in SouthAfrica. “When I came to America at 17, I had a massive culture shock. I was like a nun getting out of a convent for the first time. Carl’s Jr. was open 24 hours a day. There was so much more freedom. It was like I got dropped in the fast lane and was going from 25 miles an hour to 65 miles an hour in zero seconds,” Miller said. Ericksen said one of the dominant traits of American culture is individualism. Miller said this individualism is like a double swinging door. “On one hand, Americans will pull themselves up by their own bootstraps. On the other hand, they are willing to step on any one to get what they want,” Miller said. Yasuito Nakamishi, a student assistant at the International and Exchange Office, said his fellow Japanese are very group-oriented, unlikeAmericans.

through the crisis. “We are aware that our students are experiencing difficult challenges and we are trying to assist them in staying here and pursuing their education,” Ericksen said . He said that enrollment has declined among Asian students in the last year. He added there have been students who had to quit school and return home. Asian students from Thailand, Indonesia, Malaysia and Korea have been most affected. Ericksen said these countries have suffered the greatest decline in the value of their currency compared to the American dollar. “This means that the money the students were planning on using for school is worthless,” Ericksen said. “They either have to hope that their families can work and send more money or try and get permission from the Immigration and Naturalization Service to work.” Ericksen is working with Asian students and explores options to help them continue their education. “We have a moral obligation to help our students in crisis. It would be unethical and inappropriate for us to simply sit back and not take any action, although the action we take is limited. We want these students to know that they are important members of the campus community. We do value the enrollment of international students and they are an important part of our efforts to have a diverse student body here on campus. Also international students contribute significantly to campus finances. International students contribute over $5 million per year, which goes towards program and services that benefit all students on campus.” Ericksen said in order to help Asian students pay for school, the International Student Office has offered work scholarships based upon grade point average and financial need. Approved students can work for school and have their fees reduced. Ericksen also said that the

Ericksen said. Just like American students, Asian students are struggling, working hard to get through school. These students have family back home who are sending them here at great sacrifice and expense.” Ericksen believes that the situation will get better in the future. “My hope is that the situation in Asia stabilizes and improves. I also hope that CSUF can continue to be pro-active in helping Asian students through this crisis.” Another service on campus that has been affected by the economic crisis is the American Language Program. The program helps foreign students improve their English. Arline Burgmeier, director of the American Language Program, said that enrollment among Asian students has declined 8 percent, however only four students had to drop out of the program. “Despite their circumstances, students have figured out ways to pay the fees and continue in the program,” Burgmeier said. He said although enrollment among Asian students has dropped, enrollment among students from other nations has picked up. “It is interesting to see enrollment among European and Middle Eastern students make up the difference in the decline of Asian students,” Burgmeier said. “That is why our finances have not suffered. However, I have seen a concern among our Asian students on how they would continue paying for the program. Fortunately, I am happy to say they are continuing on even though it is difficult.” Burgmeier shares Ericksen’s hope for the future. “I feel the economic crisis will improve and we need to be patient and work though this difficult time.”

in as much self-depreciation as they did in Japan. “Japanese would say, for example, ‘I like baseball but I’m not good at it.’ These increases the solitarity of the group,” he said. Miller suggested that international students must be willing to accept other cultures in order to adjust better to theAmerican lifestyle. “A culture isn’t created in a void and it doesn’t grow in a void,” Miller said. Yvonne Lara, a broadcast journalism major, said foreign students “are an easy target” for cultural misunderstanding. “They are unconfortable in their new surrounding, trying to assimilate,” she said. Nakamishi said although Americans express themselves well, they need to become mindful listeners. They need to hear all that an international student with a broken accent is saying, he said. Araki suggested that students try to pronounce international students names correctly and talk slower and clearer to them, but not louder. She advised students to be personal and not mechanical when asking an international student how they are feeling. Araki said students should stop making assumptions about people of different cultures.
“They should stop thinking that because a girl is Asian, she must be quiet and good at math,” she said. Benjamin Kavooss, a Bio-Chem major, said the diversity that international students bring to campus is positive. “I don’t have any prejudices. Just like anybody else in California, they’re [international students] here for the experience, too.” Kavoos said. Ericksen encourages students to learn to view the world from various perspectives. When Ericksen served in the Peace Corps in Iran after college, he observed men wiping their noses without handkerchiefs. He said he finallly mustered up the courage to ask one of his teachers why the men did not use handkerchiefs. “What are you saving that stuff for?” asked the teacher. Ericksen said he has not been able to use handkerchiefs since then. “The diversity on the west coast now is an experience in history that has never occurred before,” Ericksen said. “Never have there been so many people of different backgrounds interacting with each other. It is confusing and frustrating. Yet, it is exciting.”

WOMEN’S HISTORY MONTH
Women share trials and tribulations for Women’s History Month n PROFESSOR: The sup-
port of professors and colleagues opened the doors of success to Jill English, a kinesiology professor. By DEBORAH REGIUS Daily Titan Staff Writer
Women have a need to gather and share with one another the milestones made in their lives. A few Cal State Fullerton faculty members did just that in celebration of Women’s History Month on Wednesday night. They shared the trials and tribulations of their success in education. Some students today were destined to go to school. As the oldest child and oldest grandchild, Metche Franke, a music professor, was destined to go to college. “I knew I had to achieve,” Franke said. Franke had a difficult time first decid-

When her son came back from Berkeley he brought some feminist influence with him, inspiring her to formulate a course on the music of women. The support of professors and colleagues opened the doors of success to Jill English, a kinesiology professor. The lesson she learned through her journey was never to “burn bridges” because at some time or another “you’ll always run into the same people,” she said. Although it may lead to limiting career opportunities, English’s first priority is nurturing her family. She said she had the opportunity to work for the Centers for Disease Control, but chose not to because of family issues. Many of these women grew up without the choice of having their own identity. Before the women’s movement, if women wanted to major in political science “the woman was told marry a politician,” CSUF administrator Mary

40 men and women about the conflicts they have experienced growing up in Latino households while trying to live the “American Dream.” Helen Alatorre, coordinator for the Chicana Resource Center at Cal State Fullerton, was the student participant. Ranging from childhoods in Texas to what was once the agricultural fields of Anaheim, the women spoke of both their differences and their similarities. Castellanos, a clinical psychologist with a master’s degree in counseling, spoke about the devious tactics she employed as a young girl so she could pursue a career beyond the confines of her patriarchal household and help support her family. “I would give my father champagne, knowing he was an alcoholic, to get drunk on so that I could sneak out of the house,” she said. “I did all the things my father should have done as a husband,”
she added later. Veyan, who teaches United States, Chicano and Chicana, and womenÕs history, spoke about trying to maintain her bicultural identity in an American society. She mentioned being placed in special classes and finally realizing that they were Òan excuse to get rid of my accent, my language and that my culture was being annihilated.” “I take the beliefs and values that I consider most valuable from each culture and adopt them for myself, she told the audience, speaking about her cultural identity today. Cotton, a counselor at Santiago Canyon College, spoke of her childhood experiences with racism. “Pecos, Texas,” she said, “ was a tiny town with a “no Mexicans allowed after dark mentality.” Alatorre described the conflicts she feels between her dual heritages.

He had spent nights being locked up in a cell with 69 other inmates. Yet when he suffered his first stroke he was thinking of a world beyond himself. He had double vision for two years afterward and half of his body was paralyzed for a while. But he survived and the communists freed him from the prison in 1984.
Education, he enrolled in Fullerton college. He transfered to CSUF in 1995 and graduated with honors in 1998, earning a Bachelor of the Arts in Anthrolopolgy. He is now in the master’s program studying Anthropolgy. “Not knowing English very well was a great barrier to my success in school. But I always kept my spirits high—I was always an optimist, There’s always a choice—a best way, a best solution,” Nguyen says. Michael Reinschmidt, a lecturer in the Anthropology Department, said he was deeply moved by the facts of Nguyen’s life. In a letter to Nguyen Reinschmidt wrote: “It was amazing how much (you) had accomplished against all odds and setbacks.”

Racial bigotry, parental disapproval and assaulted identities were some of the topics covered in “Voces,” an intimate look into the lives of four Chicana women held in the Titan Student Union Theater on Wednesday night. The women’s stories brought tears to the eyes of some audience members while offering insights into some of the conflicts the Chicanas experienced growing up in the duality of a bicultural home. Mary Castellanos, Elizabeth Joanne Cotton and Angelina F. Veyna, all professional women in their respective careers, spoke to an audience of about

In what he calls a near-death experience, Nguyen was thinking of others. “I remember thinking, ‘I did not do anything to harm people. I served my country.’ I had peace as I thought about my wife and eight children. I knew a friend would send my wedding ring back to my wife.” Nguyen says he believed then that his life would continue. He was not afraid of death because he knew his body would decay and be used to feed plants and animals. In the prison camp, Nguyen spent endless days tending fields of rice and corn and chopping wood in a jungle. Corn and small bowls of wheat were his food. He stayed up nights writing, trying to

“I deal with my life in ways unlike a good muchachita,” she said. “But I am an American and a Chicana.” The purpose of “Voces,” according to Alatorre, was to help Chicana women realize that the difficulties in life they face are shared by many other women. “The people who go up there are telling their actual true stories. It’s true to life. It’s autobiographical. They’re being very candid with everyone for real,” Alatorre said. “They’re offering these wonderful stories about how they were all Chicana but they were all so different.” The women felt a need to share their personal experience so that younger Chicanas might gain a sense of solidarity by seeing that problems they may encounter are surmountable and not unique. “We have a choice,” Castellanos reminded the audience. “I think it’s

Recovering a small part from last month’s trouble-ridden Black History Month, Sistertalk was able to join in the events for Women’s History Month yesterday. Sistertalk was organized three years ago in response to a perceived need for better coordination and communication among Afro-Ethnic women on campus said Patricia Richardson, co-facilitator of Sistertalk. “Sistertalk’s involvement is twofold: Afro-Ethnic issues and women’s issues,” Richardson said. “Not only are we an Afro-American club, but we’re also a Women’s club. We work in close relations with the Women’s Center.” A co-participant in yesterday’s events themed “Women’s Stories, Living the Legacy,” Sistertalk sponsored an appearance in the Titan Student Union Theatre by Elleraino, a storyteller of American, African and folklore tales. Helen Alatorre, coordinator of the Chicana Resource Center is an organizer and participant for “Voces,” which tells the a personal history of the lives of four Latinas. “I felt that it was a positive thing because it made Women’s Day a community participation,” she said. “I think that strengthens our solidarity,” Sistertalk was originally organized by Sandra Darrell, a CSUF graduate student in the Communications Department in an effort to strengthen and improve coordinate efforts among the various Afro-Ethnic clubs and organizations on campus, Richardson said. “There was a lot of fragmentation in all the Afro-Ethnic groups on campus,” said Julie Stokes, faculty advisor to Sistertalk. “There was a dedicated group who had a strong need to develop strong contacts with other groups.” They had “a sense that by unifying activities they could reach more people,” Stokes added.

Director Grechen Kanne and the rest of the cast and crew prepare for CSUF’s premiere By CHRISTOPHER LAMB Daily Titan Staff Writer At Cal State Fullerton, the Arena Theatre was a beehive of activity as the cast and crew of the play “Uncle Vanya” had only a week before opening night. At rehearsal, theatre professor and director, Grechen Kanne, was having a conversation with the stage manager, Jen Frownzimmer. Some students were arriving through the back door. Other cast and crew members set out chairs or helped the assistant stage manager Robert Mcfarin set out props on stage. “A lot of thought has gone into this play, the audience is watching a ‘theatre world’ in progress,” Mcfarin said. “(Kanne) has gone for this rehearsal space look, a lot of spare pieces and old furniture is used.” According to Kanne, Checkhov’s original “Uncle Vanya” told the story of a little man who sacrificed his dreams for his brother-in-law’s goals. Uncle Vanya realizes he has been used and stands up for his family and himself. Kanne said she is setting the play in a “theatre world” to show the connection to contemporary life. Later in rehearsal, Danielle Bisutti, who plays Yelena, and W. Lee Dailey, who plays Vanya, practice a romantic scene where Vanya nuzzles Yelena. Kanne has them shift positions so the audience will be able to see them better. Bisutti, previously seen in the CSUF production of “The Killing of Sister George,” said she got involved in the complexes of the “Uncle Vanya.” “I felt connected to the characters lives, it was like real life,” Bisutti said. “It’s a full, delicate play, it’s ironically challenging. The most difficult part is it’s so real, but it’s also the most rewarding.” The play opens with two crew members checking the lights, while the characters arrived at the “theatre.” Kanne told the cast that they could improvise the opening seen, as long as they didn’t confuse the audience. The opening was reworked numerous times to improve the clarity for the audience. “This is improv, so don’t judge us too badly on how we are doing,” said Todd, the set designer. see VANYA / 5

Honoring the Past Felix Justice and Danny Glover give tribute to their heroes during an intimate performance at UCI.
By JEREMY SCHERER Daily Titan Staff Writer In a salute to Black History Month, UC Irvine played host to Danny Glover and Felix Justice on Friday night at the Barclay Theatre. Justice and Glover met over 20 years ago in the San Francisco bay area while attending college. During this time at the beginning of their careers, the two aspiring actors began to have an open dialogue on matters that were important to them. Justice has been giving performances of the late Dr. Martin Luther King Jr. Glover, who is a great admirer of the poet Langston Hughes, teamed up with Justice seven years ago to help open up their dialogue with those interested. The evening began with Justice
ushering “Greetings from South Carolina.” Unfortunately there was really no one from his home state and he did not get the reaction he was expecting. Justice made a few jokes about the crowd’s response. After that, Justice explained that during his lifetime King was not the revered man that he is today and often he would receive death threats. The day before King was assassinated on April 4, 1964, he gave a speech entitled “Midnight Approaches.” Justice reenacted that speech for the audience. The speech by King touched on many aspects of his life. It explained many of his fears in life for himself and his family, his thoughts on faith and his belief in speaking out on the horrors that were going on in the south and also eulogized many that
had sacrificed dearly for the cause of equal civil rights. The speech finished with a story of how King was once stabbed and almost died. King mentioned that he received many telegrams from world leaders and friends. King explained that though these words of thanks were comforting, the only message he remembered was from a young white girl. The telegram spoke of how many newspapers said that if King had sneezed he would have died. The girl was letting King know how glad she was that King did not sneeze. It was this message that helped King continue to fight on and continue his motto of “we shall overcome.” Justice’s performance was awing. As he spoke, though he did not physically resemble King much, he took on all of King’s characteris-
tics. One audience member noted that “I feel he (King) is within you as you speak.” Other audience members were brought back to the first time he gave the speech and remarked on how vividly Justice reenacted it. As Justice spoke, it was with the anger that King let slip through in his voice, but he could still convey the softness that King emitted through his speeches that would hold him back from being described as a mad man. Though forced to stand behind a podium, Justice let off an energy that pulsated into the audience and held them to his every word. Justice cold not hold himself on his feet. He was constantly rising to make statements and the extra inch or two he could lift seemed to be enough to prove his points. see HISTORY / 5

¡Aye Carumba!
By JASON M. TAYLOR Daily Titan Staff Writer
I have to be honest: rebellion is in my blood. And in today’s health-conscious eating climate, when it seems that everyone’s trying to sell me something low-fat, low-sodium, or no-cholesterol, I sometimes just need to go for the big, cheese-covered, shredded beef-and-sour cream burrito plate in all its greasedrenched glory. Something that feels like real food. Good thing there’s the taqueria: simple, good-tasting Mexican fare at decent prices. Alberto’s Mexican Food, located near the corner of Palm and Placentia, is a prime example of a restaurant from the great taqueria tradition. Food quality and taste are always high, and nobody’s
HISTORY • from page 4
At the close of the speech, many in the audience stood as the crowd gave Justice a long and loud applause for his outstanding performance. Justice returned to the stage to introduce his friend, Glover. He remarked about Glover that “I have never heard Langston Hughes ever appreciated as this reader does.” Justice said that Glover also gives these readings only for the dedication to his cause, along with serving and loving humanity. When Glover made his way on stage he found it difficult to speak, but did call for another round of applause for Justice. Glover began his reading of Hughes, a Harlem renaissance poet, with a story of the poets childhood. Glover explained that Hughes declared that his career began in sixth grade in Kansas. Glover also went into how Hughes grew up in a world of books, were people felt things in beautiful phrases instead of just
counting the fat grams. Burritos, tacos and enchiladas filled with shredded beef or chicken constitute the main entrees, and an array of various appetizers and side dishes such as quesadillas, rice, or taquitos dripping with sour cream and guacamole form excellent complements. My personal favorites were the chicken or beef burritos, which at $2.20 were probably the best deal. Complete dinners, usually around $4.00 add beans and rice to your choice of entree items. I liked the value here a lot: Alberto’s offers free refills on drinks, a big bag of fries is only 95 cents, and anything you order is usually quite filling. My only real criticism was that the burritos were essentially just tubes of wrapped meat—certainly not a bad thing, but sometimes I like a little more variety. Critic’s choice: the shredded chicken bur-
mono-syllables. The first poem of the evening was “The Negro Speaks of Rivers” which was written when Hughes was only 18. Glover was not incorrect when he said of Hughes’ work that the poet was “one of he most controversial names in American poetry.” Hughes’ poems stay within no social boundaries of acceptance as he drew inspiration for his poems from all his surrounding life. Hughes’ topics ranged from the injustice in the South, life in South Africa and heroin addicted trumpet players. Glover also explained that Hughes was “one of the most beautiful voices to call to the wounds of injustice.” As Glover read poetry, he put himself into the text. Glover would emote with his hands and act out the action of the prose. If a poem called for a stereotypical dialect he would apply it, but also Glover would speak in soft tones to describe the wonderful music by jazz musicians. Glover did not only read Hughes’ poetry, but also read some of Hughes

rito and an order of taquitos. Pepe’s Mexican Food, located near the corner of Nutwood and Placentia, won out in terms of variety. Although slightly more expensive—with burritos usually costing about $3—many more choices are available. Their burrito line plays a particularly large role on the menu, offering pork, beef, chicken or carnitas in red or green and either all-meat or meat-withbeans varieties. Dinner combinations cost about $5 and add beans, rice, guacamole and tortilla strips. I personally preferred the combinations at Alberto’s for being slightly less expensive and offering a little more. The combinations at Pepe’s, though good, seemed to bulk up a bit on the chips and offer less in the way of beans and rice. My favorite here was the chili cheese
column work from the Chicago Defender from 1942 to 1966. The story called “American Dilemma” with Hughes fictional character Jess B. Simple evoked a strong sentiment in the crowd. The story involved Simple and a white police officer that he almost ran into. The story explains Simple’s thought on what happened from his point of view and what the officer may have been
fries, which alone made Pepe’s worthwhile for me. A half an order makes a decent lunch in and of itself, covered with a really meaty chili and several layers of cheese. Between the two locales, I preferred Pepe’s atmosphere as a bit airier, including a larger, more comfortable seating area. All in all, however, the two rated fairly close in overall value, and a choice between the two often depends on my mood for the day. Critic’s choice: If you’re really hungry, I’d try the all-meat carnitas burrito and a half-order of chili cheese fries. Just be prepared to diet afterwards.
thinking and what unnecessary fears they both might have felt. Justice and Glover held a free form question and answer period after the presentations. The questions went from touching personal stories to highly political thought. The two men went on to give a few positive messages and left the crowd feeling fully entertained by the evening.
VANYA • from page 4
Most of the rehearsal is spent on how the shifts in the set will be done in different scenes. They mark the spots where props are moved, after checking if the changes will work for that scene. Christopher Younggren, who plays Astrov, said that this is the worst part of rehearsal. “It’s the boring part—two hours of moving furniture around,” said Younggren, after Kanne has the furniture moved again to improve it for the Younggren’s scene. Kanne, who has directed past CSUF productions of “A Streetcar Named Desire” and “Night of the Iguana,” said she is doing “Uncle Vanya” in this modern setting to have the audience connect to Checkhov’s delicate themes of characters trapped and defined by their choices. “The setting allows the audience to see the play more in themselves,” Kanne said. The rehearsal lasts from 6:30 p.m. until 10:30 p.m. as the cast works to smooth out any rough edges. Kanne said the they would be rehearsing every night this week until opening night. “Shows tend to pull together at the last minute. It’s a magic spell from the theatre gods,” Younggren said with a laugh. “Uncle Vanya” opens at 8 p.m., on March 6. It also plays on March 7,8, 14,15, 17-22. Tickets and show times are available by calling the theatre box office at (714) 278-3371. Hours are 11 a.m.- 4 p.m., Monday

The Skatalites show the kids how ska should be done By NICK BRENNAN Daily Titan Staff Writer With a third wave of ska skankin’ across the nation, The Skatalites are stealing it back from those capitalizing on their invention. Dubbed the inventors of ska, the nine member band packed the House of Blues Monday night to promote their new album “Ball of Fire.” Granted many of those in attendance, including myself, were not even thought of being born in the early ‘60s when The Skatalites first took ska from Jamaica and introduced it to the rest of the world. But that didn’t stop the audience from dancing non-stop during the band’s two-hour set. Opening with a countdown to freedom by the crowd and trumpeter Nathan Breedlove, the two-hour set consisted of such ska classics as: “Confucious,” “Latin Goes Ska,” “Simmer Down,” “Christine Keeler,” “Occupation” and “Phoniex City.” With tight horn playing and a stellar beat, the group gave a lesson in history. Breedlove’s background in jazz is evident with trumpet playing similar to the greats of the swing era. Original
members Rolando Alphonso and Lester Sterling wowed those present with their sax solos. One might consider the duo similar to jazz great John Coltraine without the improvisation. Granted they have influenced many other ska bands over the years, but the new groups do not stack up to the Skatalites. Sorry, Reel Big Fish and The Mighty Mighty Bosstones, your horn sections are great and they sound great live. But the horn players just do not have the comps that Alphonso, Sterling, Breedlove and Will Clark have. Oh, Gwen Stefani and Monique Powell, take some lessons from the first lady of ska, Doreen Shaefer. Her voice has a soothing, mellow and calming effect to it. Not the strugglingto-hit-high-notes voices of Powell and Stefani. Shaefer belted out a stunning version of “Simmer Down” which would have made Bob Marley proud. Her sweet almost sultry voice combined with the upbeat-rhythmic sounds of the band brought the two-tone audience to lifting their knees as high as they could and skankin’ as best they could. Decked out in trousers held up with suspenders, doublebreasted suits and skinny ties, the fans of modern ska, came together as one and continuously demanded more tunes.

Titans end season with sour shooting
Softball loses two By JEFF HOWE
n B I G W E S T: The Titans
Daily Titan Staff Writer Conference play did not start as expected for the Cal State Fullerton softball team, as Cal Poly San Luis Obsipo took both games Wednesday night. CSUF pitcher Donna Coombes allowed three runs while striking out two and walking none in the 3-1 loss. But four Titan errors let the game get away. CSUF had only four hits, all singles. In the second game Kati Franck started, but after allowing two runs in a little more than an inning, Jana Oetgen had to come in for relief. Single runs in the first two innings, plus a two-run homer in the third, helped give the Mustangs a 5-4 win. Dara Marzolo homered for the Titans. “We’re showing up to play, we’re just not showing up to win,” said Titan Head Coach Judi Garman.

The night looked long for both Cal State Fullerton and the University of Nevada in the first round of the Big West Tournament in Reno. But it turned out to be even longer for the Titans. “I’m disappointed with the lack of intensity,” said Titan Head Coach Denise Curry. “We didn’t show up to play.” After falling behind 36-16 at half, CSUF was never able to recover. In a poorly shot game, CSUF made only 19 of 61 from the floor, as well as an abysmal six of 17 from the free-throw
line. “In tournaments, you have to show up and play and we didn’t do that,” said senior guard Kris Sigg, playing her last game in a Titan uniform. “I take full responsibility as the coach,” Curry added. “I thought we were ready. We never recovered from the hole we dug in the first half.” No player scored in the double digits in what Curry described as the team’s worst performance of the year. Sigg led the team with nine points, while forward Justine McMahan and center Erin Whiteside both added seven. Whiteside also grabbed 11 rebounds. Nevada was led by forward Ieesha Donadelle with 19 points. Center Jelena Zrnic, 6’6”, came off the bench and added 14 points and seven rebounds.
