Fallen Soldiers Honored By PAULINE GUIUAN EL VAQUERO STAFF WRITER

laza Vaquero took on the aura of a memorial park Nov. 8 with hundreds of gleaming white crosses spreading from the Administration building walkway up to the cafeteria. A recreation of the Arlington West display held every weekend in Santa Monica, the 856 crosses that lined the grass, some draped with flowers and American flags, represented fallen American soldiers in Iraq. This powerful memorial, erected in remembrance of the 2,055 dead and 14,902 wounded American soldiers in Iraq, was one part of the Day of Remembrance celebration put together by the GCC Justice Coalition, Veterans for Peace and the Iraq Veterans Against The War (IVAW) as a timely commemoration of Veterans Day. Members of these organizations set up the crosses by hand, one by one, earlier that day. A program composed of speeches and poems representing anti-war sentiments was held at the Plaza See REMEMBRANCE, Page 3

hat do KGCC Web radio and approximately 20 million people have in common? Myspace. That’s right, KGCC has joined the Myspace revolution in an effort to raise awareness for the campus Web radio station. Myspace enables GCC students, as well as the fellow Myspace community, to listen to radio broadcasts through a link provided on the radio station’s page. The torch bearer in this effort is Sarah Menold, a 25-year-old radio broadcast major who jumped at the opportunity to be a part of the campus radio station while taking Media 107,
the prerequisite course for the “radio station class,” Media 207. “I didn’t even know we had a radio station on campus until the class began and the instructor mentioned it,” said Menold. Menold currently hosts a weekly show called “Happy Mondays” which airs Monday nights from 5 p.m. to 9 p.m. Menold describes “Happy Mondays” as a modern/British rock show, even though Menold considers herself to be all over the place when it comes to her show’s music play list. “I play everything that I deem good and everything that I think people should hear and get into,” said Menold. Menold’s enthusiasm for the radio station spawns from her love of radio See KGCC, Page 4

Instructor Backs Up Student Activists R
ecently, it was brought to my attention that there are faculty on our campus who feel that our student activists are naïve and do not understand the situation of the United States involvement in Iraq. Moreover, some feel that the student activists are unfairly attacking military recruiters on campus. I would like to state here that I am in full support of our many students who are dedicating their time to struggle for social justice. From the numerous discussions that I have had with the student activists, I have discovered that many have a strong understanding of the situation in Iraq. To begin, they fully comprehend that the invasion and occupation of Iraq is illegal. Based on this fact, our student activists are passionately and compassionately taking time out of their busy schedules to protect our soldiers from further harm. The students are able to separate the policies of the Bush administration from the individual soldiers who serve bravely in our
military. It must be clearly understood that the students are not attacking the soldiers, whom they understand are pieces within a bigger system. The elite within this system are currently using our brothers and sisters, who are soldiers, to achieve their political and economic goals. In the meantime, people suffer and people die. Therefore, our students want our soldiers to return home to prevent more soldiers and their families from becoming victims of the unjust occupation of Iraq. The students also demand an end to the needless killing of over 100,000 Iraqi civilians, many of whom are women and children. Since the human toll in any war is immense, war should be used as a last option. In the case of Iraq, the United States was not in any imminent danger of attack. In fact, the United States violated international law by attacking a sovereign nation that in no way threatened our nation. This preemptive strike, as we call it,
was illegal under international law. In fact, every day that goes by, it is becoming clearer that we went to war under false pretexts. For example, there were no weapons of mass destruction. There was no yellow-cake uranium moving from Niger to Iraq. And, there was no link between Al Qaeda and Iraq. The excuse of bad information leading to the invasion of Iraq is just wrong. Evidence is now surfacing that exposes this lie. For example, the United Nations’ weapons inspectors Hans Blix and Scott Ritter had made it clear that they had found no weapons of mass destruction before the attack. Joseph Wilson, [a former] ambassador, wrote an op-ed piece in the New York Times explaining that there was no yellowcake uranium moving from Niger to Iraq. And, documents from the Defense Intelligence Agency dated February 2002 describe the improbability of Saddam’s secular regime
colluding with Islamic revolutionary movements. In order to justify the occupation of Iraq, the new argument is to bring democracy to Iraq. To this claim I ask, “Who gives us the right to impose our will on other sovereign nations?” If we delve into our history, we will find that there have been instances where our nation has used our brave men in the military not to set up democracies abroad, but to overthrow democratically elected governments to install extreme dictators to protect United States’ corporate interests. A classic example of this was when the democratically elected president of Guatemala, Jacobo Arbenz Guzman, was overthrown in 1954 to protect the interests of the United Fruit Company. The other argument to justify the invasion and occupation of Iraq basically states that Saddam Hussein needed to be removed because of human rights violations. If this is true, then why did we sit back and watch him
commit atrocities on his people while supporting him with weapons during the Iran-Iraq conflict? Why didn’t we intervene immediately when Hussein gassed thousands of Kurds in the early 1980s? Moreover, if our mission is to overthrow undemocratic regimes, why haven’t we attacked other repressive regimes such as North Korea, Iran and Saudi Arabia? In conclusion, I am inspired to see our students carefully studying history and staying current on recent events. Moreover, I admire their courage and willingness to be participants in the democratic process. I hope that they continue to practice their First Amendment right to free speech, and in this way inspire others of various political ideologies to no longer be apathetic about current issues and take part in creating and maintaining a true democracy. — Richard T.

Breast Cancer Benefit Gives Parents a Night Out By KASIA FAUGHN EL VAQUERO STAFF WRITER
T
he GCC Child Development Center staff raised over $2,000 in a Parents’ Night Out event on Nov. 5 to benefit a scholarship established in memory of a late co-worker, Kelly Gardner-Kuentz, who died of breast cancer last year. Parents’ Night Out was originally formed in 2000 to raise money to help find the cure for breast cancer. The cause became even closer to their hearts when GardnerKuentz was diagnosed with breast cancer two years later. Gardner-Kuentz, a 37year-old GCC alumna and a child development teacher at the center, was eight months pregnant with her second child when she was diagnosed with stage-four breast cancer in January 2002. After giving birth to her son Joshua, she endured over two years of unsuccessful treatments and a mastectomy, before she lost her personal battle against the disease on June 5, 2004. “We were a very tight family, so losing somebody we had worked with for 10
years was very hard,” said Leslie Ortiz-Mitchell, a child development teacher who organized this year’s Parents’ Night Out. At the suggested donation of $50 per child, 39 children came

The money raised in this year’s Parent’s Night Out event will benefit the Kelly Gardner-Kuentz Memorial Scholarship and Foundation established in 2004 by parents and teachers. The scholarship, in the amount of $500, will be awarded to a child development transfer student who meets the scholarship eligibility criteria. This year’s Parents’ Night Out raised $2,040. The single highest donation of the night was $125. Some parents made donations of as much as $100, even though they did not bring their children to the center.

‘A Day of Remembrance’ Honors Iraq Veterans Continued from Page 1 at noon. “We’ve been preparing for this since October,” said Elisa Felix of the Justice Coalition. “We specifically wanted it [held] on this week since Friday is Veteran’s Day.” The Justice Coalition, according to member Freddy Moncada, who opened the program with a short speech, is an organization that aims to make students “aware of what’s going on around the world” through the activities they promote. Kathleen Miner, another member of the organization, enumerated several facts about the war in Iraq. “The cost of the war is $203.3
billion,” said Miner. She “$1.2 billion [dollars] will be spent in 2006 on ballistic missiles and…defense.” Miner added that the amount should be spent on funding 134 elementary schools rather than on weapons of destruction. Miner went on to mention the names of soldiers from California who had been killed in Iraq. “It’s widely known that the government does not report all the names [of dead soldiers],” Miner said, explaining that only numbers, and not the deceased soldiers’ individual names, are made known to the public. “What kinds of lives would they have had? It’s unfortunate that we are never going to know.” A few veterans from previous
wars also made speeches protesting armed conflict in Iraq. One of them was Marcus Eriksen from Veterans for Peace, a veteran from the first Gulf War. Eriksen shared an experience from the Gulf War in which he reached under the driver’s seat in an Iraqi tank and pulled out a pair of binoculars. He saw that it was the exact same pair as the one he was using; it was also Americanmade. According to Eriksen, the same is true for weapons used in war. “How many Americans were killed by this American weapon?” Erikson asked his audience, referring to Americanmade guns used by Iraqi soldiers. “This war is a business.” A Vietnam War veteran, Mark
Scully, spoke on how the war changes the lives of its victims, particularly the soldiers. “Veterans are wonderful people, but they’ve had horrible experiences,” Scully said. Scully went on to remind listeners about other wars in the past century, beginning with World War I, which he compared to more recent wars such as the one in Iraq when it comes to its effects on the lives of soldiers. “We’ve been looking at the same war since 1908,” he said. For Scully, the war is a “ripple in the water,” acting like a cycle in the lives of veterans. A GCC student, Gabriel Acosta, whose brother is a soldier currently stationed in Iraq, expressed hopes that the soldiers
could soon come home safely. Two other students, Maya Rumble and Alejandra Morataya, also read poems promoting peace. At the end of the program, there was a moment of silence. The names of American casualties of the Iraq war were then called out one by one as students laid flowers and flags in front of the crosses. “We need to overcome apathy,” said Tim Goodrich of the Iraq Veterans Against The War. “A lot of the troops are against the war too. They want to go home.”

KGCC ‘Kick Out The Stops’ Continued from Page 1 broadcasting. She became interested in radio when listening to popular alternative F.M. station, KROQ. On her morning drive to work, while listening to Kevin and Bean, Menold came to a realization that she too wanted to
be on the radio and that she was very capable of doing so. “I’ve been wanting to do this for a long time,” said Menold. “I not only hope to get better at being on the air [through KGCC], but I also want to build a following.”
In addition to playing bands like Depeche Mode, Pulp and, of course, Happy Monday’s, Menold also plays music from local artists. Ideally she would like to someday have the opportunity to interview musicians on the air and have them perform live in the studio, an opportunity which is now possible, thanks in part to the recent addition of a second studio microphone. The radio station has suffered its fair share of blows. In years past, lack of listeners almost drew an end for the station. But by no means has the Media 207 class and Associate Professor of Television Mike Petros let these setbacks get in the way of pushing forward. “We just need to keep rolling with it,” said Petros. “Kick out the stops and get people to tune in.” In 2003 the station sponsored
a mini concert, attracting approximately 200 students who flocked to Plaza Vaquero for an afternoon of live entertainment. Petros hopes to have a repeat of this event in the very near future, once the radio station has solidified as a more permanent entity on campus. Some of the radio station’s shows have alreaddy been getting a following, thanks in part to word of mouth. Menold, and the rest of the KGCC staff, hope to launch some heavy promotion at clubs, coffeehouses and bars throughout Glendale and all of Los Angeles County. “We are trying to attract listeners in all of these places,” said Menold. “We, at least I, want KGCC to be known as ‘the’ college radio station in L.A.” According to Petros, a promotional campaign on campus is
also at hand. The radio station will produce a collection of flyers as well as stickers in order to raise the buzz for the station. “I don’t want to litter the campus, but I do want to get something out,” said Petros. The radio station has many goals for the upcoming semesters. But for now, the main goals for the staff are to keep the momentum going and to spread the word about KGCC. “It [the station] will be even better once the word is out on campus, as this station is for the students, first and foremost,” said Menold.

Philosophers Visit Planetarium and Ponder the Celestial Realm

avid Hurst, Professor of Chemistry, lectured the Philosophy Club on "Philosophy and the Starry Skies." The presentation was offered Thursday in the planetarium in the Cimmarusti Science building. Budding philosophers reclined on movable seats to watch the stars projected on the 30-foot dome by 17 computers and six projectors. The phases of the moon, the seemingly aberrant movement of the planets, and solar and lunar eclipses were explained both in terms of science and Aristotelian
philosophy. "We share the same sky with Aristotle, Plato, and Socrates," said Hurst, alluding to his philosophical construct that the time frame of space trivializes the human lifespan. Additionally, new photographs sent by the Hubble Space Craft were presented and the possibility of life in outer space was discussed. The Philosophy Club, led by President Rachel Melikian and Faculty Adviser Steve Bie, meets Thursdays in AD 223 from 12:00-1:00 p.m. For more information, contact Bie at ext. 3028.

Garfield Campus Offers Free Classes and More By ALISON GELLER EL VAQUERO STAFF WRITER
G
arfield, not the lasagna loving cat, but Glendale College’s other campus, offers tuition-free noncredit classes that students can enroll in at almost any time and become part of the growing community on this other campus. Unknown to many, Glendale College has two campuses: the main campus, located on Verdugo Road, and Garfield Campus, which is tucked away on Garfield Avenue right off of Chevy Chase. Many who live in the area don’t even know it’s there. Denise Guerra heard about the Garfield Campus through the Verdugo Job Center after becoming unemployed. She found that Garfield was close to where she lived and she didn’t even know about it. After speaking to a counselor at the campus she found that it was exactly what she needed and has been a student for the past six months. “Most are here because we lost our jobs,” said Guerra. “We’re here to learn [computer] techniques. The computer classes here are amazing. Everyone, both the students and teachers, always goes the extra mile.” Garfield is like its own little community according to both Guerra and Keith Herried, who has been a student at Garfield for the past six months. They have become good friends since meeting on campus. Herried said that just recently he, Guerra and some other friends on campus were talking over lunch about how they would never have found Garfield campus and never have met each other if they had not become unemployed. “When I first lost my job I was so upset,” said Guerra. “Everyday now I thank them for losing my job because I wouldn’t be here.” Many of the students attending classes at Garfield are either between jobs and are trying to update their skills, or are learning English. The campus is home to several continuing education programs and best of all: they’re free and offer flexible scheduling. There is also low-cost child care for full- and part-time
Garfield students, as long as the student remains on campus and doesn’t just drop off their child and go elsewhere. Students can take many different classes: business math and accounting, medical front office, keyboarding, computer, ESL, parental education and lifelong learning. They can also take GED prep courses and citizenship classes. The GED and citizenship tests require a fee. “The quality of what they’re learning here is top notch and it’s free,” said Annette Amirian, a professor at Garfield for the past four years. “And I think a lot of people go to other institutions and pay a lot of money for less. What they get out of it is less then what they can come here and get.” Amirian teaches business math, accounting and two different computerized accounting programs, Quickbooks and Peachtree. “We offer a lot of classes here,” said Amirian. “A lot of our computerized classes: Excel, Access, Quickbooks, Peachtree, Word, Powerpoint. These classes are important for people moving into business and who want to work. We offer these classes so you can come here and learn these [programs] and be proficient in them. And it’s free. Anywhere else you can pay a lot of money. I’m talking about these private institutions that charge you thousands of dollars to take their classes. You can come here for free and get the same, if not better, quality of information and you can take the classes as many times as you need to, to absorb the material.” Herried said that at a previous job he was in charge of sending people out to be trained in computer skills. According to him, his company would have expected to pay about $200 a day per employee to get such high quality training on this type of software. “Classes here are cutting edge,” said Herried, who has been a paralegal for the past 20 years and is currently between jobs. He’s at Garfield upgrading all of his computer skills, and he also took a class in medical terminology and got a certificate for it. When Guerra was asked why
she recommends this campus to others, she said it was because of “the support that we get from the instructors, the patience and their high quality techniques of teaching.” “I love teaching here,” said Amirian. “It’s a lot of fun. I love my students, I love my colleagues. I’ve worked at other places before but this is by far the most positive and most fun working environment I’ve ever had.” Among students who take advantage of Garfield’s noncredit ESL classes, many move on to credit ESL on the main campus. The counselors at Garfield are very helpful in making sure the students know what they need to transfer and are prepared for it. Genia Daroosia is an ESL student at Garfield. She says she likes taking the classes at Garfield because “the teachers explain everything very well and they move slowly so the students really learn it.” According to Debi Wootton, the Assistant Director of Work Force Training and Marketing for Garfield Campus, the ESL program is the largest program on campus. Students can enroll for most of the classes on the same day they begin taking classes. The exceptions are the
computer classes, because starting a week late can make it hard to understand what’s going on. The “Campus Profile 2005” published by the Research and Planning Unit says that there are over 7,000 students who currently attend Garfield. Both Guerra and Herried have referred people to Garfield and plan on continuing to take classes there even after they are once again employed. And they feel that when the time comes to find new jobs, they will do very well in their interviews because of the classes they have taken at the Career Center at Garfield. “There is a program here called ‘21st Century Job Search,’” said Herried. “It helps you update your resumes, teaches you how to search for jobs online, and teaches you survival skills [for the workplace].” The class teaches students what to expect in job interviews and how to reply to the questions an employer might ask. Students who are parents don’t have to worry about who will watch their children and how they will afford child care if they take classes there. Garfield, since 2001, has offered child care services for children ages 3 to 5 who are potty-trained. The cost is $3 to $5 per hour. Another
benefit is proximity. Parents can see their kids from campus because it overlooks the yard the children play in. The parents can also come over and have snack time with their kids. And in case students need some help coping because of the stress caused by a lost job or any other type of crisis counseling, Garfield offers Mental Heath Counseling. The campus facilities leave much to be desired; there is no cafeteria, though they do have a catering truck that comes by for breakfast, lunch and dinner. They have no eating area except for one table and the short wall surrounding the building. The bungalows across the way need a little work, but the students don’t mind. But, according to Jane DiLucchio, Division Chair of Continuing Education Business and Life Skills, Garfield campus plans to expand and improve its instructional facilities, though it’s unclear when the project will begin. The Garfield Campus is located at 1122 E. Garfield Ave. For information about classes, call Debi Wootton at (818) 5485233. Alison Geller can be reached at Alison_Geller@elvaq.com

Health Center Gives More Than Free Condoms By PAULINE GUIUAN EL VAQUERO STAFF WRITER
College students become even more susceptible to colds and flu as the months begin to get colder, according to nurses at the GCC Health Center. For this reason, the Center has made several services available to students for the treatment and prevention of sickness – not just during the colder months, but year round. Beginning in October, the Health Center started offering flu shots to students and faculty to help prevent the seasonal epidemic. “We ordered 250 flu shots at the beginning of the semester,” says Mary Mirch, Associate Dean of Health Services and a registered nurse. “They were used up in less than a month. Two hundred fifty people came in for the shots.” Aside from the flu shots, the Health Center offers a variety of other services, which include Registered Nurse (RN) Evaluation for those in the nursing program, blood pressure checks, crisis counseling for those with emotional and psychological struggles, hearing and vision tests, and immunizations for measles, mumps, rubella and tetanus-diphtheria. Over-thecounter medications for common ailments such as muscle pain, sore throat, headache and colds
are also readily available for free at the front desk along with condoms. Doctor visits for specific medical conditions can also be arranged by appointment. Free informational materials on health-related topics such as contraception and STDs, can also be picked up from the center at any time. Besides English, the pamphlets are available in other languages, including Spanish and Korean, and will soon be available in Armenian. Louis Garcia, a part-time nurse at the center, said that many students also come in for TB testing. “I administer TB tests to students who need them for the nursing program, T4 [teaching] program and child development classes,” Garcia said. The Health Center provides first aid for emergency situations. “Sometimes we get calls from out there [on campus],” Garcia said. “People have seizures, chest pains, anxiety attacks or injuries from falling. We give first aid, and sometimes we call the paramedics.” However, Garcia says that such situations are uncommon. “We only get calls for seizures maybe once a month,” he said. Another important service available at the health center is free and anonymous HIV testing. According to Mirch, the anonymous testing has an advantage because “we can test anyone
without having to know who they are,” compared to confidential HIV testing, wherein the person’s name and some personal information still have to be acquired. “We value the fact that we can do this kind of testing,” said Mirch. She went on to say that this service is not only available to GCC students and staff, but also to their partners. So far, only one person has tested positive for HIV, according to the dean nurse. According to Mirch, an average of 1,100 students come in for health services every month. “That’s not even counting those who just come in for over-thecounter drugs, information or anonymous HIV testing,” she said. Garcia added that GCC students and staff are “pretty healthy.”
“If you compare the number of students enrolled to the students who come in and take over-the-counter medication or need treatment, you’ll see it’s not a huge number,” Garcia said. A recent addition to the center’s services is the free nutritional counseling provided by dietetic interns. Information about basic nutrition and diet facts and advice for healthy weight loss and maintenance are given to students and staff by appointment only. This week, the Center also began offering forums for gay men to talk and meet with others from the homosexual community. The forums will be held every Tuesday night, and refreshments will be served. Four nurses are available 88 hours a week, according to Mirch. This includes two who
are on the staff full time, one who is Spanish-speaking and one male nurse who can attend to specific needs of male patients. “The staff that we have gives us flexibility and accommodates diversity,” Mirch said. The ASGCC has allocated $5,000 for doctors’ services and $2,000 for immunizations out of its budget for the academic year 2005-2006. Other health services are paid for by the $12 health fee charged to every student upon enrollment. The Health Center is located on the first floor of the San Rafael building and is open Mondays through Thursdays from 8 a.m. to 10 p.m. and Fridays from 8 a.m. to 4 p.m. Pauline Guiuan can be reached at Pauline_Guiuan@elvaq.com

Football Team Is Western State Conference Southern Division Champ, Makes Bowl Playoff By VIOLETA ARRAZOLA EL VAQUERO SPORTS EDITOR
I
n the last game of the regular season, the Vaqueros beat East Los Angeles College 24-12 on Saturday and more importantly won the Western State Conference Southern Division title, something that hasn’t been done in 15 years. Battling a hamstring injury, quarterback Steve Martinez still managed to pass for 206 yards against the Huskies (5-5, 3-4). Martinez got some help from running back Jamal Rashad, who rushed for 129 yards and fin-
ished the game with two touchdowns. Rashad scored his second touchdown with 1:46 remaining in the game to help the Vaqueros clinch the title. Along with being the WSC champs, the Vaqueros, who finished the regular season with an 8-2 overall record and 6-1 in the WSC, will also make their second postseason appearance in five years. The Vaqueros’ only losses came in the season opener against Southwestern College on Sept. 3 and against Compton College on Sept. 17. “Our journey is not over yet,” said John Cicuto, who is in his 17th year as head coach
for the Vaqueros. The Vaqueros will have quite a challenge though, as they will face host Grossmont College (91) in El Cajon on Saturday in the Southern California Bowl. The Griffins are making their sixth consecutive postseason appearance, have won three straight Foothill Conference titles and are ranked sixth in the nation among community colleges. The Griffins also have the second best defense in the state and are averaging 44.7 points and 483 yards per game. Quarterback Reily Murphy, running back Derrell Hutsona and receiver Michael Omar are all
top performers for Grossmont. All of those stats don’t matter to the Vaqueros though, because “anyone could beat anyone at this level,” said Cicuto. “ It doesn’t matter what people think. What it’s going to come down to is us not making mistakes and eliminating penalties.” The Vaquero squad also has many shining stars that have contributed to the team’s success. They include quarterback Steve Martinez, running back Jamal Rashad, and receiver Darion Donelly, to name a few. The team is also on a seven-game winning streak and is averaging 32.6 points and 412 yards per game.
When asked if they [Vaqueros] are going to do anything differently going into the first-round game of the Southern California playoffs, Cicuto said they will continue to do everything the same way. Whatever that “way” is, let’s hope it works, because so far it has helped put GCC on the map and has brought the team much success. The game against Grossmont will begin at 1 p.m. and will be held at Mashin-Roth Memorial Field.

Self-Defense Class Packs a Punch By JANE POJAWA EL VAQUERO EDITOR IN CHIEF
A
woman is grabbed from the back. She struggles, trying to shake off her attacker, but he is much bigger and stronger than she is. Suddenly she changes her grip on his hand, shifts her weight, and within seconds he is on the floor and she is kicking him in the head. Then it’s the next woman’s turn. This is the Self Defense for Women class — some of those enrolled are actual survivors of attacks — that has been offered by GCC for five semesters. Armando Sanchez, the instructor, is known to many on campus for his work in the Information and Technology Services Department, where he mans the help desk. Sanchez, who has studied martial arts for more than 18 years, has trained in numerous types of martial arts disciplines. He holds a black belt in scorpion karate do, a brown third stripe in kakto jitsu (the belt preceding black), and a blue belt in jujitsu. Explaining how his easygoing personality at the help desk is so different than his demeanor in class, he says, “Most people that have seen me fight or that have trained with me have seen the other side of me. A hard and aggressive person. When I train, I stay very serious and focused.” The class starts with discus-
sion. Sanchez has announced that his students may take the new coed Self Defense class in the spring semester if they have Self Defense for Women as a prerequisite. Surprisingly, some of them are considering it. “Yeah, I think
I’ll check it out,” says a very petite Asian girl. It seems hard to picture her voluntarily locked in combat with a large male opponent, yet that perception is incorrect. She can handle it. Then the class moves on to
simulated assaults. Mark Ragonig, also of ITS, has volunteered to help with training. One after the next, he attempts to choke the students, and one by one they drop him. The atmosphere in the dance studio is very
supportive as students cheer for their colleagues and Armando coaches from the sidelines. “It’s all professional,” laughs Ragonig, getting to his feet after hitting the mat after what seems to be the 20th time. Self defense isn’t just about getting to beat up ITS personnel. It’s a one-unit Physical Education class that meets once a week. Asked what reasons a student might have for taking this class, Sanchez said “They [the students] learn more than just self defense,” Sanchez said. “They learn confidence. We do exercises so they get a good workout. They learn how to see the dangers that surround them. But the best reason is at the end of class they at least know that anything can happen and they are better prepared for it.” Jane Pojawa can be reached at Jane_Pojawa@elvaq.com

Cross Country Team Runs Away With Victory By VIOLETA ARRAZOLA EL VAQUERO SPORTS EDITOR
G
lendale’s cross-country team proved it was among the best in the state Nov. 4 when the men captured first place and the women placed third at the Southern California Community College Championship at UC San Diego. Luis Castaneda was the top runner for the Vaqueros on the four-mile course, which was won by Romaldo Sanchez of Los Angeles Trade Tech College (20
minutes, 41 seconds). Casteneda finished the race in fifth with a time of 21:16. The Vaquero men had four runners finish in the top 17, which gave them a team time of 1:48.51.80 and a total of 106 points to win first place. The other Vaquero runners to excel in the race were Joseph Lopez (eighth in 21:29.70), Preston Richardson (11th in 21:33.50) and Ivan Perez (17th in 21:47.30). Head Coach Eddie Lopez credits his team with being more focused this year. “Last season
they didn’t do too well because they weren’t ready to run the miles,” said Lopez, who is in his 19th season as coach. “But now they are more prepared physically, emotionally, spiritually and everything.” The Vaquero women, finished the three-mile course with a team time of 1:42:40 and a team total of 172 points. The womens’ champions were Orange Coast College (78 points) and Riverside Community College (151 points). Vaquero runner Liliana
Hernandez finished in sixth place with a time of 19:35.50. The next-best finisher was Vanessa Murillo, who came in 28th place and finished in 20:28.50. Ana Rodriguez was 30th, with a time of 20:30.7. The victories come nearly two weeks after the Vaqueros won yet another Western State Conference title on Oct. 24, which is the 15th in 19 years for the men and the fourth in nine years for the women. But the Vaqueros hope that their celebration continues as they move to their most impor-
tant competition of the season this Saturday: the State Championships. GCC has won three state titles; two of them have come under coach Lopez. The last state title was won in 1998. The State Championship will be held at Fresno’s Woodward Park and will consist of a 3.1mile run for the women, which will begin at 10 a.m.; the men will compete on a four-mile course at 11 a.m. Violeta Arrazola can be reached at Violeta_Arrazola@elvaq.com

Movie Wal-Mart Sells Hypocrisy at Top Dollar r e v i e w
By OLGA RAMAZ EL VAQUERO ARTS AND ENTERTAINMENT EDTOR
R
obert Greenwald director of “Outfoxed: Rupert Murdoch’s War on Journalism,” and “Uncovered: The War On Iraq” has gone toe-to-toe with one of the biggest corporate monsters of our time in his latest documentary, “Wal-Mart: The High Cost of Low Price.” Not only a home for low prices, Wal-Mart is also the home of unfair business tactics and disregard for its employees. For this documentary, Greenwald refrains from using the usual white-collared talkingheads and reaches out to those in the community who have been caught in the middle of this growing monopoly, as well as current and former employees who believed in
company promises. With every testimonial the plot-line of the film unfurls, triggering moments of anger, sadness and shock at the complete disregard that this company has for people. Such disregard is depicted when the spotlight is shone on Wal-Mart’s factories overseas and the viewer is introduced to “Princess.” “Princess” is a young girl from a small province in China who is forced to go into the city to make some money. She finds herself working in a factory assembling toys, working 15 hour shifts for less than $3 a day. One male Chinese employee speaks out to Wal-Mart honchos and asks them to consider his remarks. “These profits you made and the wonderful life you have are the sweat and tears and the overtime working of
Chinese people,” he says. However, most of the attention is geared to issues festering from store to store in the United States. From lack of health benefits for employees, to racism and sexism, Wal-Mart is a Pandora’s box of concerns. Edith Arana invested six years of her life in this company. Like every other employee who bought into the Wal-Mart philosophy, she wanted to scale-up the ladder and obtain a position in management. In her testimony she describes the “check-list” she had to fulfill in order to achieve her goal of advancement within the company. Arana was denied the opportunity due to the fact that she was a black woman. For the most part, the majority of the people speaking out against Wal-Mart are conservative folks with strong Christian values, Middle-America’s citi-
zens who are up-in-arms that mom and pop shops are being driven out of business in order to make way for a company that practices unfair business tactics. Greenwald makes it very clear that Wal-Mart not only affects blue-collar America. In fact, he demonstrates two separate cases within the film of how Wal-Mart affects those who have generated a decent amount of money with their small businesses only to get driven out of business by the unscrupulous monster that is Wal-Mart. But what is definitely stressed ad naseum throughout the film is the company’s penny-pinching style. Lack of security in the parking lots of the stores have given leeway to staggering crime rates. Patrons have been subjected to theft, rape and shooting on Wal-Mart property. The store goes to great lengths to monitor the inside of the stores but disregards what occurs in the parking lots. The company has actually been slapped with several law suits pertaining to parking lot safety, suits which the company vehemently denies. The company can afford to spend more for increased security, but it won’t do it. The film reserves a special segment for the Walton family and CEO of the company, Lee Scott. At one point during this segment, Greenwald contrasts the allocation of charity between the Walton family and Bill Gates. According to the film, the Walton family donates less than 1 percent of earnings to charity, while Gates forks over a whopping 58 percent. In 2004, Wal-Mart employees gave more than $5 million to the Critical Need Fund, which will help fellow workers during times of crisis. The Waltons managed to only contribute $6,000, even though they are worth $102 billion. Facts like these pop out all through the film, shedding some
light on the Wal-Mart empire and legitimizing arguments against the company. Greenwald’s approach to go small and to show deeply personal stories drives a point home. “Wal-Mart impacts people all across the country and all across the world.” But the documentary only shows one side of the coin, that of the disgruntled communities, and former and current employees. Although it shows footage of Scott, it does not do enough to demonstrate the other side of the spectrum. Ideally, it would have been a much more interesting film if Greenwald and company had bum-rushed happy Wal-Mart customers as they walked out of the store with their cheap toys and produce and confronted them with hard facts about the company. Or even better, if Scott or current Wal-Mart heads would have been questioned about their dirty, unfair business tactics as they schemed their way out of another lawsuit. One way or another, this film will not only stir up a wide range of emotions but it will also awaken the world to the harsh realities of no-holdsbarred capitalism. Rating ** 1/2 out of 4 Join the Women’s International Liberation League for a special screening of “Wal-Mart: The High Cost of Low Price” on Nov. 22 at 7 p.m. in SC212.

‘I Think War Affects Everyone’ — Gezelle Emerson-James music and psychology major
T
he Justice Coalition hosted the Arlington West Exhibition in Plaza Vaquero on Nov. 8. Crosses and a coffin were displayed as a symbolic re-creation of the Arlington National Cemetery. The exhibit honored the 2,055 fallen soldiers and the 14,902 soldiers who have been wounded in the Iraq War. The event was tied to the Veterans Day holiday, celebrated Nov. 11, and was meant to create a day of remembrance on campus. GCC students felt that the Arlington West event gave them a sense of the reality that is hidden from them. Tina Dartyan, 18, an international relations major, said, “It is a very impressive visual sight. I think this event has a message and gives you a great idea of how many soldiers have died.” Nicole M. Brown, 21, a psychology major, echoes those feelings. “It [the display] gives us a sense of reality [by] showing the other side, not only what the media wants to show us.”
By placing a symbolic coffin in Plaza Vaquero, Joey Melendez, 24, a biochemistry major, sends a message about the consequences of the Iraq War.
