Enrollment information released

by Leigh Raines Assis/0111 News Editor Registration went more smoothly this semes1er than last time and fewer students were enrolled, said Registrar Karen Streeter.

According to Streeter, registration went more smoothly because the registration system. which was new last semester, didn't break down and was more familiar 10 those who worked at registration.

Enrollment is down slightly from lasl semester.

This semester only 3.002 s1udcnts enrolled compared 10 last semester" s 3,061 students.

Streeter said it is not unusual for spring semester to have lower enrollment than the fall semester. In fact, 1992's spring semester had only 2,996 students enrolled.

TI1e number of vocational students increased slightly- from 317 last semester 10 319, while the number of academic students decreased from 2,744 last semester 10 2,683 this semester.

by Danie Lewis Se111i11e/ Rf porter

For the fi rst year at North Idaho College, the language department is going on·a spring trip 10 Mexico.

Museums, the largest produce mark et in Yucatan nnd the best Yukntec restaurants arc also on the agenda of events.

Students will be able to visit a local church in Mani where Diego de Landa burned nil locally rell)aining books in Maya hieroglyphic writing in 1562. The underground caverns where 1he books had been hidden prior to their discovery by Landa

may be visited as well.

"There is no requirement to go. one just has lo be willing," said Joyce Lider, Spanish instructor. "There is no credits given to those who go. It is a wny to experience a different culture."

Lider stressed it is nol a "lay on the beach, be lazy" kind of trip. The trip is strictly a " way for students to experience another culture's climate, food. attitudes of people, learn cultural diffe re nces and develop international awareness,'' Lidcr said.

The cost for going. which will include travel, rooms, food etc .. is $2,000. It i~ up to the individual to gel the money because no fund raisers arc planned.

Lider wants a commitment with a $100 deposit for the trip by the end of March.

College to comply with Disabilities Act

by Mork/\. J erome Sporrs Editor The North ldoho College Board ofTrns1cc, recently pa,~cd a resolution by a 3-0 vote which will require the ~chool to comply with Americnns With Dbabilitil!!o /\cl.

The American, With Disabili1ics Act, which was enacted hy Congress in 1992. requires thm person, with di, abilnics muM be provided with the same npponumty and ncce., s to education and ,crviccs ns those wnhou1 disabilnie~.

The Board of Tru~tee, ,wtrd in i1s ruling thm compliance with 1hc Americans With Disabili1ic~ Act is a priority of thi~ in~titution and th.II NlC intends to comply [ully with the requirements.

The Board of Trustees also direc ted the school adminimation to prepare, publhh and distribute policy Mntcment~ nnd procedures to ~om ply with the letter and spirit of the Americans With Disabiliucs Act and 10 take prompt action to implement the requirements of the act. NlC President Robert Dennett pointed out ii would undoubtedly be impossible to comply with the act immediately and that the act allows live years from the time of evaluation to ~"Ome into full compliance with the ruling.

The resolution goes on to say that the administration shall solicit the involvement of the community and individuals with disabilities in the self-evaluation and in senin11 priorities for compliance. The adminim111ion must also report 10 the board regarding the progress made toward compliance with the Americans With Disabilities Act. Rolly Jurgens, dean of administration, reported on his preliminary findings regarding NIC's compliance with the act and called the evaluation process "monumental," noting that every piece of literature the college produces. and every program it offers must be evaluated and eventually must

comply wi1l1 the pro, 1,ions of the .icl "It's a terrific undertaking," Jurgens ,aid " We're rinding thing~ all over carnpu, that need lo be Jltcred phy\lcall} a, well as program-wi\c. We're doing what we can. as needs become known. to occommodate tho,c Mudem, on the ba,is of whJt 1, the mo,1crucial need." ''We ore still under the proc:css of evaluating the buildings on campu,," Jurgen, said. ''There ar~ 22 build111g, on campu,, for each building 1hcre is a ~3-pagc report th.,t mu\t bc lilied ou1. Things that must be looked at, for e, amplc. arc the ,ink, and doorwa) s. Ale they acce.,,ihlc for handicapped individuals'!

Some thing, we' ve done in the pN, for e~ample - we had a student in a 1\hcelchnir in a class in Seiter 103. which is , loped nnd difficult to not roll doll'n the aisle. so we arranged a table in back with blocks to help. We will do all we can fo r our handicapped ,tudems."

In the Hl'nt any student. employee or member of the public feels that any activity. program, sef'\ ice or facility of NIC does not conform to 1h.: letter or intent of the Americans With Di abilities Act, a grievance procedure should be followed 10 voice that concern in a mutual effort to reach rea\onable accommodation.

In the grievance procedure, a wriuen complaint must be liled with the dean of administrations, giving details of the complaint and reason why the activity, program, sef'\·ice or facilit} does not comply with the act. Jurgenf office is localed in Lee Hall.

Within 10 working days, the dean must meet with the pe~on(s) filing the complaint in an effon to gather more information.

Within IO working duys after that meeting, the dean must discuss the complaint with the presidem of the college. After five more working days, a written decision regarding the complaint will be issued by the dean. The board will then make a decision regarding the solution.

Celebrate love: Give 365 gifts 1111, 1s nat about Valentine·, Di1y.

It'~ not like I ho,c a problem with Valentine·~ Day. For one day during the year, our flJ!1 of the "orld becomes heam and Cupids. l'O'iCS ~ml!II a little more fragrant. candy t:istes a little S\\eeta and hugs are a little more free Lnccy cards and boxes of chocol,11~ are presented with eager :inricipation. and 1ioople in love take the lime to let the other person know how they feel.

Something 1hut is neglected all too much the rest of the year.

On this day ear-marked for love, people will take long walki;, share long tulk~ and n:lish the company of someone lhcy cherish. They will use the exCtJsc of n nouonnl celebration to dnnk deep from 1hc stream of companionship in an attempt to quench lhe thir'!;t they suffer from nil year long without realil.ing it. · Too b:id they need nn excuo;e. for the price of a little cffon. they con Patricia Snyder drink until the ~trcam becomei a deep. mighty ri,cr, growing stronger Opinion the nmrc it is u~.

On Valentine\ Day. pt'(lple \\ill afficrnlly lt'COgni1.e their lo,c- p.:rh3ps intnJticu1ingly, perhnp, ri1unli,11dy, pcrhap,, reluc1.1111ly. But what muke!> this d11y w much more wonhy for lo,e thilll .u1> other day?

Valentine\ D,1y h:i., bt'Como: .m excu,;e to take care of something m one fell \woop that need., con-i:m1, dnily attention.

It h:b been pmiM.'<l, lamented and reJ«t~'<l. The truth b, it i~ only o d4y. No more. no les,. Are the people honnn.'d and churished on Vrucntmc's Day with thoughl~. gilt, nnd time any I~ 1m1xinant the ne,t day? Or the one after th~t'l Still. p..'tlple return to their own routines once the p.,per hcans nnd floml sp,'Cial\ dio;app.:ar. The intcno;c, deep attention will go bxk to 5urfocc chit-chut with an occ-.is,onnl renundN or 1>.1St )h.uing~ nnd n lum Jt the future onr,. After all, 1hu1's the way it w:1s ln.,1 \lalemine's D.,y. That's how 11 will be this onc.

But many people will 1101 be celcbrnting this Vnlcnunc·~ Day. Not becnu.\e they don't wont 10 - lx-cau-.c they can't. Their chance to let people know how much the)' care d~pancd when they pas~ away.

They will never buy ,lnotllt'r long.Mcmnu.'d rose. never write another hcan-folt inscription in a card or letter, never put aside the "orric~ of ar\lm.ll)' life to concentnllc on tl11: joy of being in love agam. I wonder how mJny had put it off until the "nppropri.11c cL1y" l'ilme around. ~bi~ not about Valentine's Day. Tiw, i~ about e1·cn· day.

This is about not putting off 'til tomorrow \\ho you can care for today.

Each moment 1~ a prcriou.~ girt which we can chose 10 embrace nnd share wilh ti~ we IO\'C or to spend carelessly, w11ho111 thaught, without l!ffon.

Celebrate Valentine's Day. Revel in the joy of having someone. (And don'1 use the lack of having someone as on c~cuse to be lonely -only you can change your situntion.) And whc~ the dny oflovc dCp.llts. it docsn'1 lose its preciousness.

Dont mllke every day Valentine's Doy. Make Valentine's Day an expanded ctlcbmtion of every doy.

'Judge not, lest ye be judged' So many people have expressed their clo,c -minded upinion rtbout homosexual\ in the military in the "letter, 10 1hc editor" ~ec1ion or the local pre~~ lotcly that 11 was decided to rllspond wi 1h an open letter to these misinformed. prcjudicinl "pillars" of ,ociety.

Normnlly lettcn, of this ~art nrc an~wcr,•d with our laughter, but the extent of misinfomrntion being ~pcwcd fonh with such ignorance hob mo,ed us to officially respond.

To the womnn ,1 ho feared allowing homo!IC~ual~ into the militnry would open otha field> of endeavor to c:arrup1ion. we send our condolence~ as yau ho,•c ob1•io11sly had r, major rejection of rcali1y. llomosexual~ arc already tcachc~. child ~·arctnkcr., and coaches as "ell as bu~-drhw~. airline pilots, CEO~ and govcrnml'nl officials.

None of thc~e peoph: has lus1cd often or molested children. nor are they plnnninJ;! to in the future.

To the man who feared sc~uol harassment while showl·ring 1n rhe borrocks, we offer sympathy for his ignorance. Homosexual~ nrc no1 out-of-control deviants lu~1ing after naked homophobic men. We remind him that he has prob,1bly already ~howcn.>d "ith homose,unls and come out unscathed.

To the person who feared blood drawn from "contami noted" homosexuals for wounded during wnnime. oil the censors will allow u~ to soy is "Get a grip." Allow us to make four major points.

AIDS is an equal opportunity employer. heterosexuals actually hove a higher rate of AIDS than homosexuals. homosexuality is not synonymous with AIDS, and aJI service personnel arc tested on a regular basis for AIDS. Personally. we feel o greater emphasis should be

placed upan the hctcro~cxuol enlisted personnel'~ tendcnc,c~ to freely engage in indisrnmmote ,cxual acuvities while on vnriOU\ deployment~ then on the contnm111a11on of blood dra" n during some future unlikely war.

To the per~on who used the argument of <el~c111·e un•/et' by poinung out that people with h1gh·blood pressure, diabcte), Out feet, "eight prllhh:m, etc. ore turned nw:1y from the recruitment office. we offer enlightenment. Homo"<xuolily i~ not on illness any more thun the color of your ~kin ,s.

To the person \\ho feared lhe corrupuon of America\ children. all we can ~ay i,. we prny to "your Jll,loving Chri~tian God" that you don't corrupt tho~e very same children with your hatred.

To all the ~cared poison-penned people out there, we offer a few insights.

Ha;toncall y, the military has shown dangerous pn:judicial tendenciC;j. At one time. blacl..~ Y.<:r.: segregated while serving and dying for this country. 1~- year.olds \\tre drafted for a wnr that sickened many Md y.:t were unable to vote for the very government official~ 1hat sc:01 lhem 10 pos~ibly die. nnd women today are Still tighung the bureaucratic red tape and chauvinistic attitudes chat deny lhem the recognition of work wdl done.

Now homose~uws are lighting not for the right to joinbecause homosexuals have already joined, fought wars. bled their blood into foreign ground and di:fended your right 10 write letters to a free press-but for the right to stand up and be publicly ptVUd of who they are.

To nil or you one final message.

America stands ror frctdom. How dare you uy to deny anyone the right to fight for n.

same subject, different view 'Friendly' Californian tired of trashing from Idahoans .

I was in1eres1ed in Randy Cain's lencr concerning 1he

i>norance of vo1crs nbou1 clec1ion issues. I absolu1cly agree ;ith him. As a fom1er policicnl science s1uden1 nt coll~gc, I 3m only 100 well aware of 1hc opo1hy of m_ony Amcncans where politics is concerned and I see 1hc cesung of voters as 311 exccllcnc idc11.

Howe,·er. my questions would be of a different nature: 1.) Do conserva1ivc. Bible-chumping senators really d? a proper job of upholding 1he Firs1 Amendment, which clearly nd,•oca1es the separniion of church and s1a1e?

Is ii right that the leader of the American people should pardon six criminals whose crimes are far more serious than merely paying "cash under the table?"

2.)

J.) Do the "iews of Pat Buchanan, Jesse He lms. Pai Robenson and other fundamcn1alis1s really represent the "Jivcrsi1y of American culture" (10 quote Mr. Cain himself)?

11 seems as ir Mr. Cain and other Coeur d'Alene conserva1ives are simply feeling sour grapes following a beating in the recent presider11ial elections. Come on conservatives, let us bury the ha1chc1. We have enough problems as i1 is and complaining is not going 10 help, so al least give che newly elected presidcn1 and his ndmin is1ration a chance.

Valentine's Day for lovers, friends I've hcrud more complaining about Valenune's Day to last me a lifetime. I suppose tha1 il is lhe price for working with n creative and wonderful group of people who are basically unouoched romantically. Normally I !ind lheir general rom:111cc bashing a small price 10 pay, bu1come Valentine's Day ii becomes especially biller around here.

OK. I'mguihy of being involved in a murriage with a gentle. caring bear of a man for the las1 15 y(,\J'S, Bui I refuse to apologize for main1aining romance wnh my mate.

Peri.onnlly I love Vnlcncine·s Day. Oh )CS, I re:1li1e 1h01 i1 is a holiday created by Joe Blow Hallmark in order 10 ~II more gree1ing cards. I must admil I feel a small o.mounl of guih for enjoying :111 odvcnising agent's " el dream.

Bue this Vnlcniine's Day is ex1r:1 special for me I ho\'e cwo Valentine~ 1h1~ year Eleven month, ago someone cncen.'d my life \\ho imrnedimcly bccam,: .m intensive, ulmost ob;,.,~ivc Lori Vivian p.in of me. Since 1111:n, l\c been having the nffo.ir of 1ny Opinion life, Do I lo~e my bear 1mm nny less? No. I\ my life full and complete rn the relmion~hip department? Dcfini1cly I am so lucky lhai these 1wo arc wilhng 10 , ho.re me with each other without 31.krnl( m,: 10 choo..e between them. Both of them Io, e me enough 10 allow me the hnppin~s of the 01hcr.

Wi1h my bear man, I shnrc love, rc,pcc1. friend,hip and half a life 11me He i, my lover for hfc. Ile knows and undel"\lnnd\ me. not 10 memion. \poiI\ me roucn. He li~tens 10 me whenever I nttd to b.! hcurd nnd n:\pecl\ my silences wl11:ne,er the mood wil.e~ me. He brings me 10 C(1;1tlSY and Mill holds my hand. after all 1h1S: year... rn public.

With my wul lo, er. I share everything that I am. She completes my life. She fullills my rummies of in1imacy She gemly 5lirs the minbow~ of my aum. She holds my love with the strength of a panther in the jungle. I fer love is unconditional and wi1hou1judgmcm or restriction,. Tht:re arc no rules or taboo'; rn our relationship.

My bear man and my panther lady, two wild and unlllmed lov.:s ... diffettm ns night and day, bring me 1he happiness of being whole. My life 1~ an adventure 111 the realm of love.

No, I don't hale Valemine's DJy. I don't hnve sweetheans and saccharin mush 111 my life.

I live with thunderous, crashing w:ivcs on the surf combined with wann, wild moonlit jungle nrghL~.

Valentine's Day if you're lucky is for lovers... if not so lucky for sweelheans.

If you are nor lucky enough 10 hove l"- O diversely different lo,-m. consider C\erylhing in life is wh:u you make or iL Look around and grab your ncorcst unan..ched friend and celebrate the d.!y of 10,e by 001 berng alone.

Phil ANd SAily

Com piled by J.A. J eske with u lilllr help from my friends C.P. Awnrd. I know I said once a rnonlh for 1he C.P. award. Yc1, lhe humus (sic) humor on campus is rich in nu1rien1s 1ha1 1101 only grow some of 1hc bes1 Chokecherries. bu1 olso drop an obundnnce of pi1s ... ln1cly righl in my lap.

II was a 1ough deci(ion. bu1 lhc C.P. mus1 go 10 our lovely Ri1a-Mc1cr-Moid.

Knthy Frcdekind. Las1 week in 1hc SUB. s1uden1Helen Rice-Shell sidled up to me and a~ked if ~omc1hing could be done about !he brown Ci1a1ion 1ha1 is continuously parked in 1hc 1wo handicapped parking 1,0nes. located next 10 1he SUB. Helen. displaying her obligatory blue and while wheelchair on her mirror. complained 1h01 wilh n car parked 1hero.: i1 mode i1 difficull !O gel in ond ou1 of her vehicle. Frcdekind snid she made the decision that 1he owner of the car should also hove handicapped s1n1us.

That decision may be fine, bul is something "'rong wilh requiring the Ci1a1ion 10 take its spol out of one stall. instead of the middle of two? A lit1Jc budge and a uniform equals NIC parking policy?

Sorry. no cherry. Kalhy.jus1the pit!

OATELCNE: Friday, Jon. 29. men's room, Lee Holl.

Whal a line! No. not for the urinal, for 1hc sink.

I think 1his E. Coli bacteria business hos us all running scared. I' ve been a member of 1he mole rnce for over three decades and can never remember guys washing their hnnds so much nrter going to the bnihroom.

My fi rst though1 was mnybe personal hygiene is now be taken seriously by the male rocc. My second though1, and action. wns 10 quip 10 1he fellows mthe si nks. "lley guys. if your mom hnd pony tmincd you righ1, you wouldn'1 have to w:\Sh your hand$!"

I bent a hasty retrcm. forgct1ing my NIC coffee cup. Later. I weni back. No guys and dong i1. no coffee cup either.

Our newly elected Prcsidcm Dill Clinion wn, overheard speaking ton +year- old boy during the inauguration; the young boy said to 1hc President, "I sure hope you arc going to bc n good Pre)idcnt." Mr. Cli n1on replied, "Ya' know. I hope so too." I~ thnt n rcnl person or what?

Just so everyone d()<)S no1 think thnt Sentinel ~1affcrs don¡, know how 10 pa)' a complimcnl, The Uo"I or Cherries Award goc& to 1hc NI C maintenance department for doing such n fine job keeping the campus running while the place wos buried under half a foot of snow.

On the nip side. the sidewalks ,urc do need a linlc work. Coun1less s1uden1s have been seen biting ii on 1he 1cc lntely. Un1il the problem gets fixed though, we'll j~t have 10 1ake the sidcwnlks wi1h n groin of snh. or 1hc seven men (deans and trustc;:s) who aucnd the Board ofTrustct?'s mee1ings. six have, shall we sny. receding hnirlincs. (David Lindsay is the exception. our fearless editor finds hi\ salt and p,!ppcr r.nhcr a1trnc1ivc). and Steve Schenk was r<.'Ccnlly overheard saying he would like to grow hnir by June for his high school reunion. So much for my Gromp¡~ saying "Moss don't grow on a busy street!"

The locnl papers m-ently ran full-plge ads for the lonely n1hean wi1hout a date on Valentines Day. It wns mcnuoned by some of 1hc single-and-looking member.. on stolT thn1 Valentine's Dny alone wns difficult enough without n full page rent-a-dnie reminder. Our hean goes ou1 to nll those alone on the day of s11cr1hcans. Sniffie ...

Choke ...

We would like to stnd n smoke choke 10 our nagging environmentalist editor and chier. Lori Vivian h was r..~nlly no1iced. now that the snow has somewhat melted, on Ol'Cr abundant nmount of those white mend1ol lil1crs decorating the landscape. Mi~s the nsh1my or did )'Ou just think lhcy would blend in and no one would no1ice? Tsk-T~k.

mngine selling your car 10 thrown college gradua1ion pany, or shall I say a college dropout pony. Tha1's what Guarder Borns did in 1he movie "Fandango," excep1 his liulc house pany advanced in10 a road trip from Austin, Texas. 10 the border of Mex ico.

Kevin Cos1ner plays the charac1er or an irresponsible daredevil, a basically wild son of college s1udcn1, named Barns. Barns swce1-1olks the charac1cr of a whiny, weeny kind or a nerd, named Phil. played by Judd Nelson, into usi ng his car for this special party on the road.

"Fandango" is essenlially abou1 five unique college charac1crs who are aboul 10 be drafled 10 Vieinam, either because 1hey've graduated from college or were kicked ou1 because or !heir grades. They 1um 1his lns1 pany in10 a road trip 10 ge1 their minds off 1he draft - and a couple of them 10 dodge it "Fandnngo" is a classic movie for college s1uden1s because firs1.1t·s simply hilarious: second, the more limes you waich ii 1he funnier ii gets; 1hird, you never grow 1ired or wmching i1: and lns1ly, but probably mos1 imponantly, it represents 1he devilish fun every (or almos1 every) college s1udent dreams or

- · - · - · - • - having.

Siriving for run and advemure oflen gets Barns and his friends into trouble. For example, when Phil's car run~ ou1of gas. Barns gets lhis genius idea 10 have a train tow the car 10 the ncar.:st 1own. Phil, afler "'hining. pleading. and practically crying 10 Barns nol 1,, hool.. the cable up from his car 10 1J,c train, si1s reluc1nn1ly in the back seal screaming. ''We're all gonna die!"

Card Wrestler stuns Simon Fraser with 'the funk'

by JelT Green St111inel reporter Simon Fr:iscr·s coach Mike Jones predicted a victory for his sqund: he pl\.--dic1cd ~rong as the NJCAA founhl'llllked Cnrds racked up three victoric~ ogainst talented NAIA foes.

NIC handed NAIA powerhouse Simon Fraser, which was ranked second in the notion, its eighth loss of the scnson on Jan. 29. The two squads battled ton 21-21 draw lastyeM. Bren Stubblelield's thrilling lirst round pin O\'Cr Clansmen grappler John Melling at 142 ignited the crowd which was estimated at 650. Melling. a defending NAIA nntionol chlltOp. seemed in control until Stubblelield threw him to his back with an exciting athletic move coined ns ''111c Funk" by former NIC standout and assistant coach Many Boday.

"I \\IIIS just am01,ed. I couldn·t believe that I pinned him; I ligured it would be close," S1ubbleficld said.

Stubblelietd·s pin wns crucial as the cenm score was 12-3 01 that point, according to NIC coach John Owen. .Mlltk Echevarriu and Eric McDowell followed with ,•ictorics, while the match !hot followed looked like a seven-minute street brawl.

The crowd went wi ld as Justin Abdou, a

three-ume NAIA champion and Canadian Olympian, fought off an aggressive Jeremy Pascoe in a heated 5.3 victory at 167. Abdou pinned Pascoe earlier this yellt Dt the Clackamas Invitational.

"I just wanted to go out and wrestle hard and show him (Abdou) whnt I am made of."

Pascoe said.

Shane Cass put the icing on the cake with a last second takcdown at 190. Heavyweight Jon Parsons had his hands full as he hooked up with a 1992 Olympic silver medalist in the form of Jeff Thue. Thue won the match 13-4. but the Cards won the war 22-13.

Earlier 1hu1 day, Lhc CMds downed Pacilic University 32-3. The score. however. is deceiving as NrC won two matches in sudden death ovcnime and two in the closing seconds.

Man Paulson and McDowell both came out victorious in their ovenime bouts, and Mike Smith recorded a last second takedown to beat his opponent 8-7.

Another NAIA powerhouse come into town as sixth-ranked Western Montana tangled with the Cards focb. 4.

Ja.\on Denton started the team off on the right foot as he boosted his personal r<."Cord 10 unimpressive 38-5 with n ,,ictory over former NIC All-American Shawn foos,~n.

Two national chnmp~ ~uared off as Mnrk Echevarria beat T.R. Williams 10-8 DI 150.

Matt Paulson gains an early takedown over his opponent from Simon Fraser.

Stubblclicld and Parsons earned pin, in the contest, nnd Jc(f Gotcher. who is back from o broken hand, also bea1 hi \ opponent at 167.

The tough schedule the Card~ foccd ot the end of the regular scn.,on Is exactly how Owen hkcs it "I like 10 wre,th: rour-yc~r ~chool~ nt Lhl! end of the year; it mnkcs the kich wrc\tle hnrd," Owen said.

O\•~n lead~ hi~ troops o~ they travel to Color,1do for the Region 18 meet 1his wcc~end.

"We've earned the seed~. now we hn,c to wrc,tlc." Owen said. "My goul is to send 10 guys co the no1ionnl cournoment."

The notional toumnmcnt will be held in Oi ~murck during 1hc laM weekend of Februnry.

Lady hoopsters unseat nationally ranked Ricks

by Marcy Ankrum Sr111intl R,pomr Heather McAdam\, Allison Lnndvau.:r and Krisli Johnson It'd the Nonh ldnho Women's b:1•~etbnll 10:,1m to an 85-72 victory 1wer the n;uionally riinkt.'<I Viking~ from Ricks Coll~ge m Chri~tlan.\on Gymna.~ium Friday. Feb. 5. l,md,•au..•r l(d oil scon:rb with 24 points, McAdams with 23 and lohn~n with 18. Landvoner ul~o led all reboundel'5 with 11.

The women came out 1ln th.: floor looking pumped and ready to hand the l.ady Vikings a loss.

Bcrorc the game Heather McAdam~ snid, "I am pumped and l thint.: the whole team is pumped a.~ well. Ricks i~ ranked seventh in the 113tion a~ of thi~ week, but they only ~at~ by seven down there and we have the home court advantage this time.''

The Cardinal:! used that to their atlvan1agc ~ they shut down Ricks' out~idc shooting and mack the Viking~ won. tbc ball into the middle more.

Boch lwn.~ matched up well inside as well as on the perimc1c:r. Ricks threw in a press lhat swprisc:d NIC at first, bui afler the Cardinals got the feel for it, they had no

problems breaking It. Landvauer &aid the team needs IO work together more because they have a IOI or talent; they jusc need 10 use iL

McAdam~ also said they ne,•di:d to work on getting their head~ in the l_!ilme and play hard for the whole 40 minute,.

The Card~ se..-mcd to a,crompfoh lx!th of these goal\ a.~ they pulled together and ;Ill worked hard 10 accomplish their final gqlll, which was to win.

Before the gam~. McAdllJ'Os ~aid she didn't feel she wa.~ perwnall)' doing very well at thi, point. but her game Friday provt'd to ~ a different ~,ory. Sh.- was I00 ~rcent from the frl!,) throw line, wa.~ \C\:Ond high11.~1 ">C(lrer with '.!3 points and shot S8 prrcent from the lield. She also tallied up ~ven rebounds for the Cardinal,.

Before the g:imc. head co.ich DcHnven Hill said, "I am going in knowing I'm going LO win I lnow we have the ability'" beat Rieb if the ladies smy mentally focused.''

Thcy ~med 10 Jo ju,t thJL Wuh only 15 tumov.:r., 47 pcrct'nt ~hooting from the field and 88 pt>rccnt from the Cree throw line. the NtC Cl!fdinals e~ploded to victory.

The fa.~ ball movement of 1hc Cardim1ls and their fast paced gamt kept the Vikings on their toes and alen and kept their defense gu~ing at all times.

Afcer many prolonged Free-throws and numerous fouls by the Ricks ccam, the Lndy Cardinals cnme out victorious after losing to the Vikings earlitr on the road.

Hill said 11.\I week, with E.Ulllh, the ladi~'S got over the hump, buc Colorado Nonhwcstcrn dcsU'oyed lhat hope.

"This 1s 1he key part ol the year ,end we nel'd to be more con\lslcnt in our game."

McAdam, said, "Our con,istcooy throughout th~ tz,unc is whnt we need to work on. We con g.:t rc:ally pump..'<! for league: g=~. but we nec:d to have th:it same intensity for every glltnc we play in " Hill said, "We Men 'ta<, confident a.~ we should be. W~ huve a few doubts and we duubl our ability ~meLirnc.,."

Bui Friday night's vi~tory might have: been that confidence builder ror the: team.

The Cardinals travel IO Sall l..:ik.: thb weekend tu face S.tlt Lake C.C. and Utah Vall.:y C.C. landva11er felt 1hat the.<e two game\ would be their 1oughl'St road trip thL~ ~ason Hill, on the other hand, said that Di,\ie and Snow were no vacation and that Salt Lale is COnlP3fllble to them.

McAdams said. •·1 believe 1h:11 the team i) good if the othc:r membcl'li beliewe the)' ar.: good and beliewc we Cd.II do il. But if even one pel'S<.•n doubls we won'1do it thc:n hi~ harder 10 a.:c.ompli~h that goal.

Trend for future sports idols could mean bigger and stronger athletes What's happening 10 !he sports world 1odoy?

Every time we turn nround some n1hle1e i~ dying or retiring or gcnmg pul into jail for belling or drugs.

Everything is really screwed up.

Remember when we were kids and we first got in1cres1ed in spons? Maybe your idol wos Will Chamberlain, Johnny Bench. Mohammed Ali. Honk Aaron. Roger S1aubach, or e,cn Magic Johnson.

Larry Bird, Lawrence Taylor. or Fernando Volenzuelo, bu1 1hese guys ore gone and sports will never be 1he same. ' - t I For instance, when I was a kid, I Jo, ed basketball. and when I saw Darrel Dawkins break a backboard. I was really Opinion Ryan Bronson awed by I he 1hough1of MICh ,I feal l..'1!11 weekend, I saw Shaquillc O'Ncal break 1he ,uppon or a ba~kc1.

Maybe 11\ju~1 m~. but docsn'I ii \CCm like II w11uld lake a whole hell-ol-olotJ mcnglh 10 bu,1down a \!eel support? II could ha\'C ju,1 bc~n .1 100,e screw, bu11f ii wa,n'1, you'll probnbly ,cc II huppen ngarn be.-au,c "The Shoq" is ju,1 ,1 rookie. Someday we'll probably see 111111 break !he backboard, ll'ill" down 1he support, and destroy 1he ba..,ke1b,1II becau~e he 1hrcw h 1hrough lhe rim "ith so mul'h fvrce- .ill in 1hc )Orne dunk. Hn,c )OU e\'l!r \Ct:n lhc cummcrcinl where Shnq hM to prO\'C himwlf 10 Chamberlain, Bill Russell, Bill Wnhon and Kareem Abdul Jabbar?

I'd be1 my bonom dollnr (If l hJd one) 1ha1 he really ripped that nm off the backboard and ,ha11ercd 1hc glo5s. Shaq is 0111hc nnnck and nppo,ing 1eams bener wa1ch 1hcir back. becau,c 1lw ,hccr power nnd s1rcng1h he po~~csse~ is a,, e~ome.

A graph on CBS ~howed 1hc ovcr.1gc wcigh1 or an NFL offensive line in 1983 and compared ii 10 1he a"crngc weight or an offensive line in '93.

Wi1hin 10 years, the average weight ho~ increased over 25 pounds The WashingtCln Rcd$kin~ wcnl from having 1hc heaviest hnc in 1he kngue in '83 10 1he lhird lightest in '93, and 1he average wcigh1 was 1wo pounds heavier Either 1hcsc guys are co1ing a whole hell-of-alo1a cornmeal and T-bone s1caks, or 1hcy'rc nol. The average is something like 292 pounds per offensive lineman. but I'm sure it would be closer 10 300 pounds if 1he Scanlc Scahawks didn'1 exist.

In 20 or 30 years, we will ~e a1hle1cs do some 1hin11$ 1h01 we all lhoug,ht would never be accomplished. lns1e,1d of "The Shaq" we ' ll have '1"he Mansion." offenshe linemen will a\'croge 370 pound of pure mu!'Clc (cornmeal Meah?), and the Scahawks will probably win the Super Bowl.

One might think that they had an easy time gening through the NIC tournamcn1 because of their showing in Scan le, however, jusr the opposite is true.

The men won the tournament by winning four straigh1gnmcs, and the gi rls won in three straight.

"We had a tough time winning four strai~ht games," Keith said. "We won our first by 30, then won our second by three and our third and founh by just a single point, real barn-burners."

"There was four teams tha1 could have won goi ng into the tournament," 12 Oz. tcnm member Rob Danner said.

"And they were the best team that night.

She's been cooking and caring in 1hc Student Union Building cnreierin for 16 years.

In 1977. Robinson ,poncd a wa111 ad in 1he local paper 1ha1 ndven ised for n cook at NIC. Since she wa~ ~carching ror a job with bcnclits. Robi nson applied. She was hired and begon working ror S3.50 per hour. which was just above minimum wage then.

Robinson says she recalls when the SUB was a Im smnllcr. The grill area used 10 be where the salad bnr is now, nnd the whole area was open 10 the rest or the lunchroom, instead or being closed off by glass as ii is now.

As for as carc1cria jobs. Robinson know, prnctical ly every ont! in the place. "l',•c done every jtib in the place cxcep1 1he orlicc work," Robin,on sa,d.

One of Robin~on·, favorite 1hing5 about 11or~1ng m 1he grill is 1he people she helps .ind work~ ,1·11h. facn though \lw·~ u,ually 100 bu~y io , rnnd and cha1w11h the , mdcnts she \\',li l, on, ~he'll give 1hc111 n ,mile and a frkndly "Iii!"

Myrna Norlander said.

In the 16 years thni Robinson ha., worked in the SUB, she hns weathered more changes than anyone.

Besides the remodeling or 1he building. she· s seen n 101or workers come and go. In her es1ima1ion. about 50 different cooks hove passed through the care1eria since she's been there.

Though Robinson has seen a 101or foodrelntcd accidents, she herself hos never been the cau~c of any major earn.strophe.

Snyder illustrated the noncompc1i1ivcness of the Native American. He snid in a 11vo-1cnm basketb.111 game with the Hopi Indians. everybody applauds when someone makes a ba:,kct, regardless of what team made it. They do not keep score because they arc non·compctitivc: 11·s jus1 1hc joy of a human being accomplishing the ba~kct. " lnstcnd of friendly compe1i1ion, here the student's job is obstructing you from making the boskc1 because we arc competitive," Snyder said.

Howard said she thinks the differences arc 1he way Native Americans nrc raised opposed to the traditional non-Indian family. She ~nid on the reservation, school is 1101 a~ imponant because they tend 10 May on the reservation 10 worl... She said teachers don ·1 care as many were hired by 1he Bureau of Indinn Affuirs 10 fulfill loan commitment~ or until they find "a real job." However, she said educational altitudes ore improving with many tribes; her tribe now hires its bwn teachers so they can be more selcc11ve, "My nephew graduated from 12th grade on the reservation nnd couldn'1 read well enough to get a driver's license or be accepted in U.S. Armed Services," Howard said. "Our people need 10 educate 1h,m1selvcs and come back 10 th e reservation 10 teach others."

Howard said her heritage is imponan1 10 her family. She recalled her three sons being requcs1cd to cut their hair 10 ath:nd school. She fought it with the belief "You don·1 have 10 change who you are to have pride in what you learn." But sh, Jgrced that Native Americans need to learn 10 adnpt ~oml' cultural habits 10 be SUCCC\)fUI 111 college. "lndinn\ hove.! to r\!mcmber who you arc."
