Student forbidden to run for Senate News Notes

by Michelle Sch11 cod and Fekndu Klros Sentinel &lirors A change that has yet to be implemented in ASNIC's s1uden1 handbook hns deprived one NIC studenl from running for a freshmnn sena1or posi1ion.

Linda Pnyne said she assumed she wns following proper guidelines when. on l\<londay, Sepl. 19, after collec1ing the required nmounl of signa1ures, she went to 1he S1uden1 Union Building to tum in her petition.

ASNIC Vice-Prcsiden1 Kris S1ein. who is in charge of freshman elec1ions. told Payne tha1 the documents were due in his hands by noon on Sept. 11 m 1he la1est. After S1cin refused 10 1ake her pe1i1ion, at 12:45 she wen110 ASNIC President Ryan Higgins who also refused 1he pe1i1ion, saying 1ha11hc election wns S1ein's responsibili1y.

The same suua1ion occurred in lns1 spring's elections when candida1cs Patrick Camie. Jessica Woller and Seth Sievenpiper turned in their lisl of goals and qualifications pnst deadline 10 1he ASNIC board. Camie and Sicvenp1per were ini1inlly imposed with a line of$15 while n reprimand wa.~ also imposed on Walter for altering her pcti1ion from president 10 senator. All of the reprimands were dismissed a1 a May ASNIC mce1ing.

Former voca1ional senator Jason Jone~ also 1umed in his pe1i1ion four hours Inter 1.hon 1he deadline during his election period. but was ;11fowed to run nnywny.

All of these candida1es were excu~cd becau~e i\SN IC fell it was necesiary 10 bend lhe rules since they needed In fiaync s cnse, Stein salil 1fin1 he didn 1t feel 1hn1 there were nny special circumstances 10 condone bending or brcnking lhe rules 10 allow her 10 bl! able 10 run for

senn1or.

Although P3yne said 11101 the only nycr she found wos behind 3 diny dish tray, Stein said nyers were pui up on mos1 bulletin boards around campus announcing due dates for Lhe pe1i1ions.

According lo Stein. when Payne picked up her petilion from him, he 1old her to check back with him for the guidelines which weren'1set up yc1. S1ein secs ii as pan of 3 candidates job 10 sec th3l 1hcir pe1i1ion is in on 1imc.

Payne said 1ha1 when she looked 31 1he ASNIC consti1U1ion. she never saw anything 1hn1 s3id when or where the pc1i1ions were due. P3yne does admit that she never did check back wi1h S1cin for the guidelines as he had asked her 10 do.

"My opinion is 1hn1 they need 10 have a little belier disclosure. !l's no1 even an open proce~ ... Payne said.

After Payne snid whnl she read was unclear. S1ein replied by s3ying she was only one ou1 of eight 101al who didn't understand the rules. Siem was 1hen nskcd if ASN IC should noi be responsible 10 m3ke 1hcmselvcs clear in wn1ing us 10 wh111 exnc1ly ii is tha11hey want, however. he chose no110 an\"'er lht ques1ion.

The only problem Payne s1ill has wilh ASNIC is 1hcir not fixing Ille cons1ilu11on. "h was over, and I ligurcd it was over," Payne \aid.

"That was 001 an is~ue."

"As for as ti,ting 1he bi-13w\, I need 10 keep 1hem balanced," Siem said. "Ryan l11ggin~and I nrc looking .... ~

NIC nursing student saves day

Vi1J1lc was in Tnrgc1. shopping for o 1ypcwri1er 10 do her nursing resean:h papers with, when she noticed a group of Target employees gathered around a fallen gen1lcrnan.

When she realized the man had just suffered a hean ouack, Vitale said she threw her purse down and rushed in, announcing she knew CPR. '1lle)' kind of gave me a linle space," Vitale said. smiling.

Vi1nle hns aucnded NIC pan-time for n few years, but she said 1his is her first year full-lime. She said she wasn't focused until this year when she entered the menial health 1echnican prog.rnm. She first learned CPR in February of this year through her CMA

courses.

"I always wondered, 'wilt I remember lhis' T' Vi1ale

said,

V Remembering the procedure wasn · 1a problem, llalc Slid, because her ins1incts just 100k over. She

tried to get a response, chen checked for a pulse and breathing and when she go1 no signs, began udminis1cring CPR unlit the paramedics arrived a few minutes IDier.

Afterwards. Vllale said she calmly purchased her 1ypewri1er and walked out 10 her truck and broke down crying, worried 1hn1 she hlldn' 1done all the procedures corrcc1ly and wonde,inl! if !he mun was OK. The feeling persis1ed, Vimle said, until 1wo dllys later Friday when the man's wife called from Sacred Hean Medical Cen1cr in Spokane and asked Vitale 10 come and see them.

Vi1nlc met members of 1he man's family and tinnily the man himself.

"He gave me a big hug," Vitale said, blushing.

Vitale said she was satisfied and feh that she had done the righ1 thing until she saw lhc man and knew he wns fine.

Then. Vitale said. the man's cardiologist commended her on her actions. saying he was glad she had reacted and did some1hing 10 help instead of standing there gawking.

Vitale said she didn ·1 intend on ge1ting so much recognition; she only wanted 10 help.

"As long as he's doing fine," Vitale said. 'That was my main conoem."

Students meet at flagpole to pray for nation

Six students gathered around the flagpole on the soccer field Sep1. 21 al 11 :30 a.m. 10 join 1oge1her in prayer for their nation. campu~. its students and teachers.

According 10 Angela Brandel, an active member in the Bop1is1 Student Ministries Club on campus. the s1u~en1s came in response 10 an in1crna1ional. annual ga1henng called See You a1 the Pole.

Adika Berry. a second year s1udcn1 01 NlC, led the group in prayer.

"They asked me 10 lead the prayenime end tell the people who showed up what we were there lo pray about," Berry said.

SYATP has been in existence since 1990. when a group of high school students decided 10 get 1oge1her and pray for their campus.

The idea ballooned and SY ATP became an omcial annual occurrence. Brandel said SY ATP always occurs on a Wedn<!Sday sometime in Sepl.

According 10 Brandel. the firsl group was from Texas, and other s1udcn1s 1hough1 ii was a great idea.

New location for LCSC

by Dan Dell Se111i11dl Reporter Si1uated directly across Crom lhr First United Methodist Church, the home or the new Pany Duke TV show. at 623 E. Wallace, is the new Coeur d'Alene center of Lewis Md Clark College.

The move from the NIC camrus was made because additional facilities were nettled 10 accommodate third and founh-year studentS a1 LCSC and LCSC' s need for more space for their compu1er programs, according to Rodney Frey, director.

LCSC's curreni building that was formerly owned by GTE is about 7,200 square foet. The college has approxima1ely 425 s1udents. Parking is not expected 10 be a problem since five entrances 10 the parking lot are available off Sixlh and Seventh streelS. LCSC will offer 50 classes this semester. said Frey. Some of the classes offered include Wilderness, Social Work, Nursing. and Values. The Values class will be tough! by Frey who is a published author of three books on Indian culture and a professor of anthropology. In the near fu1ure Business classes will also be offered.

LCSC will also provide services 10 NIC such as moving a part of the Learning Cenier 10 the new campus until the modulars unitS show up from Boise.

"As s1uden1S finish their second-y= degree. they CM do their thitd and founh years with us," Frey said.

"We at LCSC are looking forward to serving our srudcnt body in a better way by giving 1hem the up-1o-<101e uaining they deserve," Frey said. "We still see our relationship with NlC as a partnership," The Coeur d'Alene campus of LCSC has office hours from 8 a.m. through 5 p.m. on "eekdnys. The phone number is ~ 1551.

Animal rights can get out of hand Animnls should no1 be mistrearcd.

There are many different types of beliefs nnd campaign\ Jed by variou~ 11roups concerning how animal\ should be treated. A lot of these efforu to pro1ec1 animals on: great.

However, thtre are some folks who toke this way out of hand &fld carry the 1~uc of 11.nimal rights too far. Animals ha\'e no rights except f0< \\hnl 11,-c g1\'c rhcm.

They don't deserve rights. They deSC1Ve proleclion.

We're not concerned about 1he people who stand against using animals for testing when ii 1s not for the pwposc of sa\'ing t human's life We're not concerned so much with the people who might 1hink tha1 an animal's life is worth more than a human's life In ctnaln extreme situations.

We're 1alking about those folks who are known as ''radical" animal rightists.

These people must either be really bored or something.

They sbould focus on something that will actually benefit the \\hole of society instead of making anirruil rights more of a nuir issue than ii really should be.

These are the ones who btlieve every shred of life is sacred above all else and you must repec1 all of it, no 111.\tter wha1. Any killing of a Jiving thing is against all moral \alues and tht\c people will stop III almost nothing to pro(tct the li\'CS of any living thing, even if it means loss of human life. Isn't there SOIIIClhing wrong with this picture' A group of such radicals broke in10 a labonuo,y 111 Wmhin110n State Uni\·tnity a while b.ick and set all the capth-c animal) frtt. These animals were from IRlpical ams of the world and couldn't survive in the wild. They all di~. Now, what Sood did that do 1111d what wm the

radical~ hoping 10 accomplish?

Life does have value, bu1 there's a time when people must learn when a fonn of life can be plac~ above another

form.

Humans are the most importont animals. and animal testing to save a human life is not wrong. To cat an animal to survive is necessary to some. That is not wrong.

What is wrong 1s to use animals f0< unnecessary tcsung and 10 abuse them for no reason. That's what these radicals need 10 realize. Prolect them from unnecessary harm; don' t place them on a pedestal.

Non-human animals don'1 th1nk like humans. No one has absolutely proven lhe fact that humans have even evolved from other anilllllls anyway, so why should we fttl guilly about eating meat f0< dinner?

People can stan feeling guilty when i1's a fact that our million-year.ago ancestor was a deer.

Not 10 pick on vegetarians, because some or them jus1 don'1 prefer to cat meai. bu1most radicals ate vegetarians.

E\'CI)' bit or life on this planet has inuinsic worth. OK. then why do they cat \'tgetables? Plants arc ali\·e and may very well be conscious or their existence as anilllllls arc.

Radical animal-rightist vegetarians are mwdering the very life they think is so SICRd. Don't these radicals ,u .hz.e that animals arc apan of the food chain along with plants..

If e\'tfy bil or life is held samd in the way that it is spam! a1 all costs i1 looks a if human life will be the first to go, so what is being accomplished? lei's cut through the crap and focus on some real issues and stop blowing thin1s out of proportion. There arc much more imponan1 things 10 focus on.

Parking: instructor disapproves of plans To the Editor: To avoid the appearance that I con1rol 1he news in lhe Sentinel ns its adviser, I'll write a lcner obou1 what's bothering me.

Last month Prcs1den1 Btnnell 1old the focuhy and s1orr that o wonderful lnndsc:lped ou1door mnJI is planned for the soccer field nren in the middle of 1he campus. What he didn' 1tell us is 1ha1 this plan includes a parking 101.

A parking 101 is 1he ugliest possible pion for this loca1ion, which should be kepi ns a green bell, with maybe a small mall, founrnin or clock1ower in 1he middle. Bringing more cnrs 10 1he center of 1he campus also imperils safe1y of pedestrians.

A building sharing the green area would be OK. Everyone knows 1hat 1his is "here the library should have been buih. The parking areas should be around tl1e peripheries of the campus.

NIC people are 101ally spoiled that 1hey can drive into the middle of 1he cnmpu~. and our "plan" sadly will encourage 1his more.

The "pion" should be replncing 1he ou1dated one-story buildings on campus wi1h rnul1i-s1ory buildings rn1her than conlinuing 10 pour renova1ing money into them, such as the McLain (Mechanical Ans} and Sherman School buildings. Who1 n waste! But 1hey've already been done. Ahhough it's convcnien1, NlC obviously doesn't need u baseball field on campus; others are ovailoble in the nearby parks. This area could be a parking lot and la1er a building site. We could lea,;c pcriph.:ry areas from IFI for parking lots. Did you know IFI worke~ park in our campus 1015 when 1hey could use 1heir own propeny? We and they are just 100 lazy.

Registration: Students not to new system great blame tor lack

To the Editor: Being a second-year student here nt NIC. I wns impressed with how simple the regismuion process was this semester. As opposed to my first year, r didn'1 hove 10 stand in line forever wniting 10 register. supposedly due to a new computer sys1em.

It was nice to nol have to wail for several hours just to register for five classes.

I heard 1hn1 by 1996 NIC is hoping 10 hnve phone registrnlion 1h01 will eliminn1e 1he lines comple1ely. I knew other colleges had gone 10 thn1 system in the pas1 and ii hos seemed 10 work grea1 for 1hem. II would be so convenient to "order" classes by 1elephone! No lines. no hassle and students don't even have to lenve home.

Thai will make it so much easier for 1he s1udents and I wish 1hey had considered that ahemative sooner!

I wnn1 to thank oll the stnff members 1hat hnd anything 10 do with my time being more wisely spent.

I'm nol sure on 1he processes and oll 1he changes that have took place, but whoever , performed 1hosc, I think performed a miracle.

I hope is con1inues 10 get ensier, no1 only for me but for other s1udcn15 in coming yenrs.

of participation All righ1. Voting lime has rc1umed for our student govemmcn1 PQSilions: this 1ime freshman senniors. h appears 10 be impossible IO ge1 NIC students 10 tum om for ,-otlng day.

There has been editorials. columns and the like t.rying 10 persun<le s1udents 10 s1op being so apathetic and just vote.

No mauer with how much effon we t.ry 10 promo1e the A~ocinu.'<I StudcnL( of NlC' s elections. i1 turns out every y~ar tha1 less than three in every one hundred s1udcnts ac1ually gOo!s 10 the polls and casts a vote.

Tiiere's something wrong when s1udcn1s OfC pas.,ing the vo1in1t table and 100 pe™>n waiching the! poll, I( 101ally absorbed m a Nm1endo gnrne.

1·ve chru,1i<;Cd studenis. called them lazy and pr.11::1ically gon.: down on my knees ond ~ctl them to vo1c in the 1\SNIC elections. In foct. l'vc done cvcry1hing sh()n of offering 1hem large nmounL( of money,j~t 10 get involvt'd in s1udcn1 elec11ons. ll's no1 working.

RacheU . Wiliams Maybe we're fo.:u~ing on Opinion gcuing 1he aucn1ion of the wrong people. Maybe the blame shouldn' 1just be pl11eed on non-voung ~tuden~. It\ [)IMiblc thn1 1hcre's o 101 more 10 1hi\ pic1urc.

Ye(, I know NIC i~ full of non-uudhion.il ~111dt'n1, and most of them don·1 gJ\'C u rut's as5 abou1 what II~ ~IUJ(I\I . government docs ond 111.ly don't feel affec1ed by ASNIC at ,111 Whose fnult 1s it? I've blamed the studentb. I've blaml'<I ASNIC, l'vc blamed 1he Sentinel, hl'Ck, l'vc blamed my<;clf I have never cast a >otc toward ASNIC elections like mo~I s1udents.

I'll tell you why I feel rnos1 studenis don't care.

They don't feel bencll1l'<l by ASNIC'~ endeavor... Sun:.

ASNIC keeps the younger s1udcnts Sllliaicd with dances, fn.-.: concens and a cruise every !>C!mCS1er, bu1 how does the older s1uden1 benefi1 from this? How does the campus bencl11 from these en1cruuning functions? They're lots of fun and giv.: students a chance 10 get to know each other. Thal"s needed on a campus.

Fun isn't everything. though. Our ASNIC represen1J111ves need to be sensitive 10 what the students want. Whcn's the la.st time a student government represenwive introduced him or herself to you in one of yOUI classes wx:I Mkcd whlll issues concerned you? They jus1 seem 10 melt in10 the background.

Our student government has fallen into a rut of boredom.

Half of NJC studenis don't even know it exists. Whose fault is tha1? ASNJC' s. Our student government needs to ge1 ou1 and let sl\Jdents know they are here.

For example.why don't they invi1e the studenlS to spend their spare time in the Subway, where there is a big-scttc1n television, ping-pong lllhlcs. several couches to relo.x on and video gwnes. I didn'1 even know the Subway exi5ted until lolSI year when I went down there to talk 10 my boyfriend.

I didn't fccl like it was a public place, bul men like a strictly ASNlC member hangout I felt like I was intruding. Is tha1 the kind of impression they want to make on students?

Maybe if the students fell like ASNlC cared they would Slll/1 tO vote.

Andrus and Duke host awards

by Alan Mohan Sc111i11el Reporter

This year 1he Governor's Awards in 1he Ans ven1ured away from Boise for 1he firsl 1ime and was hos1cd by Nonh Idaho College.

Apparcnily 1he move was successful since 1here were many visiting digni1aries ond orlicials present at the cvenl. I'm sure 1hey were deligh1ed 10 hove 1he opponun i1y to experience the beautirul scenery of 1his area.

Bill Bowler. chair or the Idaho Commission on the Ans. gave opening remarks. in1roducing Governor Andrus. After the standing ova1ion for the governor died down, Bowler presented him with an award from the Commission.

The award was a duck.

A folk an wooden hu'niing decoy was presented 10 Andrus 10 honor him for his long time suppon of the ans through these awards. He has been involved in the awards since 1972.

Andrus, who is the Senior Governor of the United States, made one of his Inst public appearances before he leaves office for good.

The Governor's co-host ror lhe evening was Coeur d' Alene's own well-known actress. Pony Duke. Andrus called her "one of 1hc greatest nnists of our time."

Upon taking 1he slage Duke said, in her characteristically cu1c way, that she was "honored and 1ickled" to be co-hos1ing with Governor Andrus.

Most of the performers were local talents, and the concen was appropriately begun with a trUly gifled singer, Katherine Domiano.

In response 10 Damiano's performance Duke said reflec1ively. "We can dream. can't we."

Interspersed between performances were presen1n1i ons of the Governor's Awards in the Ans for suppon of the ans. ans in education and excellence in the arts. The recipients of 1hese awards were given silver medallions, which were works of art 1hemselves. Colleen Magnuson of Wallace received a heany response from the audience as she was presenied the medallion, due 10 her local s1n1us ond her years of suppon of Idaho anists nnd ans programs.

Another outstanding performance was given by flutist Rhonda Bradetich-TifO. accompanied by the NIC Symphony Orchestra. The song she performed was upbeat. sometimes feverish and frnmic, and I nm quite sure it was once featured in a Bugs Bunny canoon.

There was also an enjoyable poem reading by Eleonor Byers. and a stunning performance by jlll.7. guitarist Leon Atkinson. A1kinson has worked with such big names as Harry Belafonte and Nino Simone. and he has performed in several Broadway shows.

"I have been thoroughly cntcnained," Duke s1a1ed with satisfaction at the completion of Atkinson's set.

111e finale of the evening was a performance by the only non-local talent fea1ured in the concen,the Boston Pops Jazz Quanct.

The audience was overwhelmingly pleased wilh tbei1 energetic sci and was incredibly amused when the Quanet performed a jaz.z version of the Idaho state song. "Here We Huve Idaho."

In his closing remarks, Andrus expressed his thanks for the hospitality of the college for hosting the concen.

Also. by execu1ive decree. he proclaimed Pany Duke and her husband 10 be native ci1izens of Idaho.

Andrus concluded 1he concen and awards ceremony wi1h the poignani, "The anis1s cannot survive wilhoul our suppon. and we cannol survive without 1he anists."

ASNIC Fest jams

by Mike Blenden St111i11tl Re(H}rttr

Drawing a crowd of nearly 2000 people. this ycar·s ASNIC Fest proved 10 be n highly successful event.

Although it took longer 1hnn expected 10 get things rolling. lhc concen eventunlly st:uied with the Abyssinians.

The Abyssinians, newcomers to the Coeur d"Alene music scene. put on an impressive show for their debut.

Liule wns known abou1 the bnnd previous 10 the fest, and they proved to be a very light, well-pmcliccd group.

"Wc"ve hnd a Im of time to rehearse;· said Abyssinian front-man Sc3ll MacDono.Jd. "'Wc"vc been in the studio nil year recording our first album."

Jumbalassy hit the singe following the Abyssinians and it took no time nt all for lead singer Alex Duncan 10 take con1tol of the crowd. Most p..--oplc had been slow and sluggish for most of the day, whcrens Duncan and the rest of Jumbo.lassy soon had quite n number of people cuuing loose and dancing the afternoon away.

The Fest quickly became a wild spccwcle as the mere hint of Block Happy taking the stage sent fnns pressing against the security rails. The crowd roared as the band only checked their instruments.

Then. as the first chord of their opening song echoed across the campus. the swarm of students exploded into swaying. turbulent sea of enthusiastic youth.

Security guards. a linle shaky nt first, were soon pulling sweaty bodies out of the crowd and kept every1hing running smoothly.

Blnck Happy rocked the singe for almost two hours while playing songs from both albums plus some new material sure 10 be on their next release.

The crowd panicip.11ion was nt ilS height as hundreds of voices sang along to "'Black Radio;• nearly drowning out the band itself.

After an unbelieveable 1hird encore, Black Happy left the singe for the Inst time that night. They had indeed perfom1ed one of the widest. spectacular shows ever 10 be held on campus.

'The Crow' provides artistic rhythm, adds intense mood of sadness, need for retributio_n

by Cheyenne Mahncke Sentinel Reporter Set in a Gothic city or rain and blood.

"The Crow" is a great movie. The beautifully filmed scenes of deswction and mayhem have such a sense of anistlc rhythm, of t.ragic justice, that is simply IIStounding. The movie is based on James O'Bar's comic series and yet the performances mnke it seem more like a fo.iry talc than a generic comic book rip-off.

No movie since the original "Batman" has made better use of darkness and the evil that lurks within. Never once do we sec the sun: it is blotted out by the ever-present rain, and the black deeds of night are performed in shadow. This adds to the movie's intense mood of sadness and the ultlmatc need for reuibution.

The show begins with a prophesy.

Sometimes something so bad happens that the soul can't be put to rest. "The Crow" can bring the soul back to avenge the wrong.

Only then can the soul rest in peace.

Suddenly, we are jumped to a double murder where Eric Dravcn (Brandon Lee) and his bride (Rochelle Davis) are brutally beaten and killed the night before their wedding.

This senseless act of violence is carried out by a group of thugs led by a cartoon-like

hood named T-Bird.

Vengeance must be hod and a year later the Crow (an actual bird) raises Drnven from his grove so he can seek revenge. The only way that he can be reunited with his lover is if the thugs that murdered her are disposed of.

Brandon Lee's performance as the heartbroken Eric Drnven is m11Sterful. He stalks TBird and his cohons with a relentless p11Ssion: killing them is an art form . The violenc;e is shocking and sudden, yet always justified.

He sees his wife in a series of slow-motion Oashbacks. His memories are black and white and tinged with red, the color of blood.

His pllin is a wound, something so alive that nothing else mailers. Every death is in the name of love.

Anothe.r strong feature of the movie is the soundtrack, which features original songs by the Stone Temple Pilots, Helmet and Pan1cra.

The different moods rely heavily on the musicians ond they are always right on targe1.

Brandon Lee was accidently shot and killed during the filming and it is very sad to waste such o line actor. Since his untimely demise occurred toward the end of the movie, only a little computer animation was used and director Alex ProyllS did a line job in 1ha1 regard. This movie is definitely wonh renting, but be warned, "Love is forever."

Union Gallery to display laser art

by Sherry L. Adkins Se111/11el Reporter Union Gallery's next visual ans feature is an exhibit of photo collage laser prints by New York-based anist Eliuibeth Ginsbe.rg on display Oct. 328.

The collection. entitled "Eiditic Memory," consists of 32 pieces of Ginsberg's unique designs that arc created by using photographic images that are transposed into one-of-a-kind collages through an Intricate technique of design. The artist uses everything imaginable. including ancient maps. DNA hclixes. Ferris wheels, bicycle tires and boat docks, to create "an underlying structure that evolves from spacial ambiguity, the resonance of growth and the edge.~ of memory and recognition."

Ginsberg's 1cchnique involves the passing of photographic fragments through a laser printer to niter scale, color and tone. The swcture is dctcm1incd through layers of decision and experimentation and then the laser prints ore cropped and tran~cribcd to acrylic on paper or canvas. The prints began as a way to sketch and developed into a sci f.

contained format related to both painting and photography.

Ginsberg writes that "Time frozen in rock strata or corrosion of a metal surface yields information about the process of change,'' and describes her technique and use of unlikely subjects as an auempt to extract fragments from the clements and ju1ttapose them to create new and often unlikely connections.

Ginsberg studied an at the Rhode Island School of Design and was an an instructor at the Parsons School of Design in New York and the Moore College of Art in Philadelphia.

Recently she hos had solo exhibils 01 Eastern Washing1on University, the New York Academy of the Sciences and the Cultural Ans Center in Columbus. Ohio.

The opening reception for 1he exhibit is Oct. 3 from 5:30 10 7:30 p.m. with a gallery walk on Oct. 4 at I p.m. A slide presen1ation will follow on Oct. 4 at 3:30 p.m. in Boswell Hall's Room 217.

Experience pleasures of fine dining

by Danie Lewis and Stephen Myers St!11tinel Reponers Imagine yourself sining in an air conditioned quiet resrnurant, looking out the window ot a spectacular view of Lake Coeur d'Alene and the trees turning brilliant fall colors. You and a friend are discussing your day while lunching on pasta, a croissant sandwich or a fruil place. This can happen, and you don't even have 10 leave campus. And che besc pan of Ibis meal is thnl ii is being prepared and served by North Idaho College scudents.

The allemative to NIC's in the Student Union Building, the Culinary Arts Restaurant, is bustling into its second semester. Before the rescaurant opened and they hod the focili ties they have now, the Culinary Ans students had to practice in a small kitchen in the SUB. They moved because of adequacy; they wanted to get as close to the industry as possible where they fC'llliiP.sneriP-9ce 1he nre.~~11re and world."

The plans 10 open the restaurant came with the developing of the Culinary Arts Program. however,

problems like finding fncilicies, gelling enough students and getting the money had to be handled before the plan could be implemented.

Culinary Ans instructor Rick Schultz has been teaching the Culinary Arts program since the spring of 1989 when this program was introduce-0. He had owned his own restaurant on the Washingcon coast and managed an llalian rescaurant in Chicago before he moved Lo Coeur d'Alene. h was advertised thal NIC was opening a Culinary Ans program and needed an instruclor. He though! it would be a great opportunity because even Chough he taughl while working at the ocher restaurants. being an instructor would provide him with being able 10 leach more on a student !cacher basis and he would scill be able 10 cook.

Ten full-lime students and one student who anends Coeur d"Alene Ji.ii()) School are currently in the the waiting lisc for next semester.

Scudents do not need prior experience in this field 10 be in lhe program; ii is just like any other major curriculum.

'The job placemen! markec for studems afcer che program is fabulous, buc ii is jusc like any ocher job," said Schultz. "It cakes a professional anicude, skills and the gumption 10 gee the job."

Students can reach their goal job if they really wane ii, he said.

"Students gel inco the Culinary An field for lhe enjoyment of it They enjoy the industry. lhe creative process and working wich the people," Schultz said.

The program gives students a wide range of aspects to working in che industry from stockroom to sauces to dishwasher 10 business.

The restaurant is open from 11 a.m.-1 p.m. Tuesday- Friday and is located upstairs in l11e Hedlund Building. Students and faculty are encouraged to experience somelhing new. Reservations are required and can be made by calling the restnurant at Ext 3343 or 769-3343. lf an)'.one is wondering how the enforcement instructor, how lhe sweets are, he is our biggest sweet connoisseur," Schultz said. Oddly enough, his office is right nexc door.

?' Stntintl Staff · When a group or teachers, students, and community members wcni 10 Greece this su mmer they did more 1hnn study history.

According 10 Judith Syhe. on NIC instructor. and one or the group leaders along w11h Jim McLeod. and Lloyd Marsh. the focus or the Odyssey tours is 10 emphasize learning and a strong group spirit.

"We call our tours high adventure, low budgc1."

Syhc said.

Syhe said that the cost or the tour thi s summer. including airfare and 19 days stay m Turl.cy, wa\ $2,075. Response to the tour wn~ nl~o very pos111ve, and the tour was rilled up by word or mouth Some or the places on 1he trip itinerary included Istanbul. the Grecl. islands or Rodos and Kos. Ephesus. the ruins believed to be the remnants or the city of Troy that Homer dcscnbes in his epic poem "The lllind," and the World War I bnulel!round of Gallipoli.

Some of the places they visited were not really ,•cry well known, but were big h11s with the tour group, Syhe said These included the village of As,os. which wus where Aristotle taught.

"Everything I thought was Greece really took place in Turkey," Chad Klinger, an English instructor said In fact, according 10 "Ancient Turkey: A Trnveler's History of Anatolia." by Seton Lloyd, many places that nppenr in Greel. literature can be found in Turkey The city of MillawJnda hns been identified as the cln\\ical city or Mlletus. There arc also similarities between many or the place names like Taruisa and Wilusa, which resemble Troy and lllium, appearing in the records of the Hittite civ1li2.mon which occupied the area that is now Turl.cy in the cm around the 13th Century 8.C. As their civiliz.11ion declined, a group known ns the Phrygians occupied the central plateau in the o.ron of Turkey. The Greeks also settled on the western con.mil area. o.nd they were followed by the Romans and Persians.

These waves of conquest and reconquest led to the current state of archaeological sites in Turkey.

One city may be built on top of another completely

different ci1y below.

Klinger said he found this interesting. "You go 10 areas that were geographicly strategic nnd cities were in the some places os results of woves or conquest."

According to Mono Kli nger, who olso teaches 01 NlC, pnn or what made this trip pleasurable wns the foct thnt they studied the country as II group before actuolly travelling there.

"It wo~ a wonderful experience to learn abou t the country before we went," she said.

The tour was more thnn just studying the past. however, Sylte said. One or the most popular activities was when they went to a small village where they visited with one or the local families, she snid.

Klinger said she found the role of \\Omen in Turkish society fascinaung. It was not so much thnt women were repressed, but that you would see women out in the fields hoeing and basically doing all the work while the men sat around a1 coffee shops because it was their job to wait until the five appointed umes each day to pray, she ~aid. lronicnlly. the curren t prime minister of Turkey is a woman. Tansu Ciller, who was educated in the United States.

The conln!St between the mnterial arrtuence of Americans and that or the standards or the average Turk caught English instructor George lves's e}es.

"It was almost as striking as the scenes of nntiqu11y." Ives said. It renlly helped sensitiu him 10 clements of American culture, hes said.

He has tried to share his experience with his students this yeor. For example, he suined out his humanities class this year by using the Turkish custom or anointing hands with oil nod by wearing his Turkish hat.

"When you live the experiences that you've only read about in books, then they truly become real," Ives said.

The fall of the So,•iet Union hns also affected Turkey. Ives said that he wanted to buy JUSI a box of tea, but that all be could find was an enure case because merchants have adjusted to selling cases 10 the Russians as they come down and buy goods to sell when they have returned to their own country.
