Student vies for mayor

New library becomes a reality

by Linette Freeman

by Robbie Klen holz

This year's Coeur d'Alene mayoral race has candidates running from all walks of life-including North Idaho College journalism major Robb Brennan. Drennan, 21. is a 1986 Coeur d'Alene High School gradua1e and curren1ly at¡ tends NIC. The main facior, which convinced Brennan 10 run for mayor, was seeing the pro1csts in China's Tien Mien square. "There were people fighting so I hey could have basic rights that we as Americans wke for granted," Brennan said. "I decided 110110 1ake 1hosc righ1s for granted anymore. I'm running for mayor to help keep those righ1s. '' After Bren nan decided to run, he realized that he didn't really fit into noy specific political party so he formed his own.. "My friends and I really don't fit in with Republicans. Democrats or Socialists so we formed Our Party," Brennan said. According 10 Brennan the only requirement to belong 10 Our Party is to be a cooperative person and 10 wnnl 10 be11er the Coeur d'Alene community.

Robb Brennan

"Our Pany was so named because it is our community, our future, so Our Party," Brennan said. There arc also many other reasons why Drennan is running. "There arc some things in Coeur d'Alene I don'1 like, and instead of just complaining nbou1 them, I want to do something about th em," Brennan said. One fnct that Brennan strongly believes is 1hat Coeur d'Alene has 1he potential to be a model community. " I want to change Coeur d'Alene so it's no1 just known for bad schools and Naz.is,'' llrennnn said. Brennan said 1hc city needs more programs for the youth-like a communi1y cen1cr. In addition, he would also like to see an upgraded public transponation system. more affordable child core and a curb-side recycling program. "I wani 10 start 1alking about the recycling, the liucr and the landfills now bccousc in 20 years it may be 100 laic.'' Brennan said. Wi1h n curb-side recycling program, Brennan said, the city provides different colored bins for glw. paper, aluminum and plastic. Then the ci1y comes around and picks them up. The benefits arc worth the cost, he said. Although Brennon has been quo1ed as an environmentalis1, he said he is also pro-bu~iness. "I would like 10 make ii easier for businesses 10 set up in our community-an cn"ironment more conducive 10 business." Brennan said. ''With more businesses in the community, the 1u pln1form is bigger and can pay for more social programs." Brennan is also against the proposed hydroplane races on Lake Coeur d'Alene. "\Ve don't nctd all those beerdrinking rowdies tearing up Tubbs Hill," Brennan said. " I guess my main goal wi1h this campaign is 10 get Coeur d'Alene off the map for Nazis and on the map for our community," Brennan said.

Lawsuit resolved for students and college by Linette Freeman Over the summer the North Idaho College vs. the Associ:ucd Students of NIC litigation was rC$olved with the studcnu as the victors.

by Al Thompso n Three main changes in the North Idaho College computer labs this year will help 1hem operate belier. according 10 Steve Ruppel. dircc1or of computer services. "Help-Line," a one-page documentation system, will help studems with different computer applica1ions,' • Rupplc said. Help-Linc documents 1\rill be availnblc in all of the computer labs and will give a brief one-page synop,is of a particular computer application in an easy to digest form, Rupple said. A priority system has olso been put 10 use in the computer labs this year. The new system will give priority 10 ~tudents who have paid a SIO computer fee for a cln,s. Ruoolc said. "If students arc paying a fee thenhould have priority. If they hnve assignments for a computer class they Jhouldn't hnvc 10 wait for a person 1h01 just might be word· processing a paper," Ruppel sold. Second priority, Rupplc ~oid, will 110 to students whh current NIC identificntion. "A student docs not hnve to worry 11bou1 being bumped 10 or I.S minute! ofter sl:lr· ung 10 u1e 1he computer," said Bob Campbell, mlcrocompu1er ccn1er \upcrvisor "When II student with Priority 2 sians in they will have one hour 10 do their work.

If o Priority I s1udcn1 wants the computer they will hove 10 wait until that hour is up," Campbell said. Ano1hcr change which has taken pl:icc this year is the naming of Bob Banta as the new supervisor for the Macintosh Lab, the Hedlund 209 Lab nnd the computer lab in Room 6 of the Adminima1ion Building. Banta was the temporary supervbor for the Mac Lab 10,1 year

Financial aid delayed For many ~,udents, the return 10 North Idaho Colle&c promised to be n bright one. The library had undergone a major racclift. An ominous but picturesque billboard or the proposed library/computer building was installed In the dirt parking 101 where it is 10 be buih. The nppcarcnce or day-glow teeshirts made the campus resemble a huge black light poster. Unror1unn1ely these bright spots soon faded when n number of students discovered their financial aid would be delayed. According to Jillc Shanknr, director of financial aid, the delays ore due mostly because of the res.ignntion of Onrlcnc Corey, who was In chnrgc of processing oid npplicntlons. Although Core)' resigned in June, Shankor said i1 took several weeks 10 conduct u " scorch" to find n )uiloble replacement for Corey. In the meantime, Shunkor wns lcfl 10 process the applications by herself with the aid of pnn-1imc employees.

Although emergency loans were made avnilablc, Shankar said the money for that fund was quickly depicted because of students defaulting on previous loans. Many problems could have been avoided if the Financial Aid Orfice hod given students prior warning of the impending financial disaster. but unfortunately only students who called ihc oflicc 10 check on their aid were notincd of the delays. Another cloud currently hang• ing over NI C is the hours available to students wishing 10 work in the various computer labs on campus. According 10 Bob Campbell, instructional technician for the college, many of the labs arc no longer opened in the evenings or on lhc wcc~ends because of n lack of work study students.

Ah, fall is in the air and it smell.s likc ...CJCpcnsivc new books, brand new checks, new people and stress. And I can't think of a finer place to beeducationally-than North !daho College. As a semi-old hand at the game of "scoo," I can attest to the fact that NIC offers more opportunity than any other school I've been to; I'vc been to a few. Because of NIC's siic, you can learn virtually anything you might want to know without having LO "fight it out" or "wait in line forever" as you would at larger institutions. for insta nce, I become interested in Macintosh computers and desktop publi~hing (DTP) a couple of yenrs ago: this was before we had a Mac lab (we

I went about it by utili:iing what was then available; namely, Student Activities Director Dean 13cnneu and his machine-his Mac, that is. Ycpper. Uncle Dean allowed me to "work" for him and, with his help, I was able Lo learn enough DTP to parlay that knowledge into two semesters of invaluable practicum study with the CJClremely creative and graciously informative Tom Lyons in Instructional Media Services. Today, I'm fortunate 10 be allowed 10 work as an intern for (what is now called) Print Media for the remainder of my tenure here. Am I an unusual case? Well, for the sake of illustration, I'll say " No." The reason is this: NIC's puniness allows enough nexibility that one canwith focus and dc1crmina1ion- utilize everything this college has to offer regardless of whom you ore. But there are two tricks 10 it. • First, glve yourself a break. Oive yourself credit for trying, especially If you foil; and, more impor-

tantly, credit for succeeding when credit 1s due. Don' t be too shy 10 "pat yourself olT' the back." • Secondly, don't be afraid 10 "ASK." If you find something that really lntcrcsLS you, ask how you might work that into your curriculum. There are many programs 1ha1 can be tailored to suit your educational needs, such as pr:ictkums, work/study positions, 1utor positions. etc., both onand off-campus. These situations provide practical tJtpcricncc that you simply can't learn in a traditional classroom. But they don't just mysteriously appear on your schedule. You have 10 ask. And if you don't know who to asl., ask Uob Newell (his office is IOC3tcd just incldc the south en· trance 10 the Student Umon Building; 11 looks like a ticket booth). Nc"cll 11 fannhnr with ju,t about everything nnd everybody on cnmpuc. and he's 11 nice guy who'\ 1hcrc to help And if you n.sl: and 1hc anC\\cr i, "No," don't give up.

Mandatory insurance best solution so far linette freeman Hcallh insurance. As North Idaho College students all ha\•C it.

Many students may have noticed when they rcglsterNI. full-time students 01 NIC p:iy a mandatory SSS dollars toward student aC'Cidcnt and health insurance. According to the policy, all registered full-umcstudents paying full-time recs automatic:llly arc included in the group 111surancc program. The polky also StBltS that as students we arc covered 24 hour) n day. The policy includtS basic occident bencliis "hen the injury requires treatment by a doctor. hospital ronfinemenl, scr.~ccs of a licensed practical nurse or a regis1cred nunc, x-rn)'S, use of an operating room. ilOc:&th~in. laboratory scr.,jc:c or use of an 11mbulanc-c. The basic sickness benefits the policy co,crs arc hospital room and board C.'(pensc, miscellaneous hospital e.q,cnse, surgical expense. in-hospital physi-

cian's fet expense, licensed nurse expense, out-olhospital ph)•sician fee expencc, consultant or specialist expense. ombul11ncc expense, outpatient e,pense and sickness den111I expense. The conccnsus around compus 1ov.ard mandatory insurance is about split. Some studcnlS an· glad they l111vc acxess 10 cheap insurnncc while othen arc mad bctausc they ha,c no choice whc-thcr they pay for it or not. Pcrsonlllly, I don't mind pa)ing the SSS because the addNI insurance comes in hand)·, but there arc other reasons as well. The first thing Iv.ant to sa)' is that "hcthcr themsur.int'c is mandatory or not, 115 students ,..e arc still going 10 pay the S88. The main reason is because the administration -.uts to ha,c our tuition be competeti\C "'ilh the Colltge of Southern Idaho-the other junior college in I.he stoic. CSI does 001 require mandatOI'}' insura.oec so they have more money 10 "'orlc wilh. In the case of NIC. the S88 is ll!Xt'n right off the top. This puts the coU.-ge m some"' hat of a bind. They can't charge SJB() plus an additional SS8 because they ,..ould lose students 10 CSI. but on the other hand the) still need the dollars. A solution proposNI by Denn of Students 011\id Lindsey lllst semester was to nuke lhe insurance opption:il. Thi$ creatNI problems as \\ CU. If the ins\1!11nct \I.ere made opptional the total

amount of dolhm patd into the group account would not be large enough 10 cover claims unless the rates v.crc ra1\Cd. Thus, no more affordable imurancc. Quue a dilemma. eh? Lall year the Auociated Students of North Idaho College had 10 act in order for Policy to be ,ct 1his >car They decided that since the $88 more thon likely "'ould be pajd rcgard1C$S of whether 11 ,..cn1 10 msurancc or not-they would keep it mandatory bcalusc all studcnu can benefit from it.

Upcoming musical comedy spoofs favorite fairy tale by Monica Kiddle Nonh ldoho College's 1hc.n1er dc.p:irl¡ ment is selling the singe for another drnmotic year, and the fir~, net will be a "very funny musical comedy" entitled "Once Upon a Mnurcss." according 10 drama instructor Tim Rarick. "Once Upon a Mattress" is a spoor of "The Princess and the Pea" fairy talc. Set in the middle ages, this musical is about a silent king and his garrulous wife, an immnrure prince who wonts 10 get married and n princess who comes from the swn.mp 10 swim the mon1. The musicn.l comedy lirst opened in Ne" York in 1959 with an unknown nctrcss namt<S Carol Burnell in the lend role and became highly successful. It is scheduled to open 111 NIC on Nov. J and will run two "ctkends at 8 p.m. in the CommunicationAns Auditorium. Admission is. SS for adults and SJ for students and swiors. "This is the lirst thing I've done with the music dcpan ment in the last couple of )'Cars," Rarick said. "We're goin.g to have

o lot of people on stagc-25 to 30 Jl('Oplc. Thcrc.'b going 10 be a 101 or singing and dnncing and n I5-piece orchestra. And we're going to have 3 Sunday matinee performance on Nov. S, somcthing lhat we haven '1 done before."

"This is the.first thing I 've done wirh the music department in rhe lasr couple of years."

Tim Rarick Another first is lhat Rarick enlisted Cheryl Rossi as guest choreographer for the play. Rossi has performed in lhe Broadway plays "Smile," and " I Married an Angel" and toured with the production or ''Pirates of Penzance." She also bas pcrfonned and directed in several stock, regional and dinner theaters and bas done various work on ABC daytime television. Following the intermission of Christmas break is lhe Shakespearean play "Taming

of the Shrew." This play will also u~ a large C'OSl, and Rarick said that this will be the fim ume for NIC to produce onr of Shakespeare's works. "Taming of the Shrew'' wiU play Feb. 23-24 and March 1-3. NCJtt on the drama dcparimeni's program is a joint production of "The Night Thoreau Spent in Jail" with the Coeur d'Alene Community Theater. It will play May 4-5 and 11 -12. In 1988, NIC worked with the community theater on "Life with Father," and Rarick said that it gave the students a chancc to work in a new and different pla.c t while al.so "demonsuating our support for the community theater's cxistco.cc... When "The Night Thoreau Spent in Jail" closes, Rarick would like 10 take either that play or "Taming or the Shrew" on the r03d. " We took ' Hedda Gabler' 10 S3ndpoint last year," Rruick said, "a.od I want lO ~e another sho~ 10 a different county this year. We'll probably go 10 St. Maries or the Silver Valley."
