Domestic violence counseling available by Amanda Tom me Sr111i11rl Rtporter The dnys of whispering about domestic

violence are gone. NIC rcec111ly hosted n domestic violence class 10 raise awareness regarding the U.S. crackdown on domestic abuse. .. Domestic violence hru. become an is~ue that our socict y will not tolerate,.. said class instructor Jim Dickie...The couns want ci1i1.cns to know that things have changed." Dickie wor'o:s for the coun system, educating people on various issues p.!naining to law. ..I used 10 hire instructors 10 teach different courS(s," Dickie Sllid... Now the State of Idaho has asked me to teach private courses." The 0.J. trial has created a sttong emphasis on the law and domestic violence, he said. ..OJ's trial will really push states to

enforce nnd strengthen domestic violence laws," Dickie said. "Now, when violence is seen by police, handcuffs go on." Dickie explained 1ha1 his purpose for teaching the closs was not 10 council the psychology of domestic abuse but 10 let people know that jail cnn be an immediate consequence. Most domestic abuse cnscs 1m•olve a male oulprit. ·•Arres1s for domestic ,•1olence are 90 percent men and 10 percent women," Dickie satd, Men :i.s well as women will be punished for violence. When police respond 10 a violent situation, they will handcuff the person who has caused the abuse, he said. ..,f police arrive to a scene and see that the mole hos any physical indications of nbusc, the woman will just a~ quickly be arrested." Dickie said. Though domestic violence is often

regarded as phy~1c.1t banery. there are also various 1ypcs of psychological baucry rccogmzed by law. According to Dickie. psychological baucry can include threats of suicide, the taking of children and threats of physical bauery. "Banery of both types are used to control the victim: a.1 these rimes there is no communication nnd the anger can lead 10 serious assault," Dickie said. Restraining orders arc given to victims for protection but arc often broken. "When protection orders are broken, it is a felony," Dickie said. "It is a sign of dangerous anger and disrespect for the law." Society has expressed its profound disapproval toward domestic violence. "Society has decided that they will not allow this violence which oficn leads 10 hos-pitalizotion or death 100 continue," Dickie said.

NlC counseling service~ has set up several suppon groups on campus to help the students in many different ways. 'T'he Personal Growth Suppon Group meets Mondays at noon in the Benewah Room and Thursdays at noon in I..« Halt Room 233.

NIC entertains Korean college representatives Four Korean n:presentattves from N[C's sister college visited the campus Oct. 18-21 to create a foreign exchange program and 10 get a first-hand look at American education.

Movies to Watch:

Shannon & Steph's Rating System

'Now and Then' by Shonnon Horwood Sr fl/mel Reporter

Wnming: the movie "Now and Then" 1s a girl's movie. fl was designed 10 make you laugh. make you cry and. most of all. make you remember. It was n time when boys were losing their cooties and mukc-bclicve wa$ slipping away. Life wns '1ill innocent, but every day was full of questions. It brings back the carefree days of summer when all thnt mancred were your friends, your slumbt: r panics and your training bra. My hcan wo, moved by these girls. The problem\ they faced were more real than the problem\ of their adu h influence~. TI1c llme they spem nnd rhc th ing, rhcy did meant more in one surmm:r rhan the next 20 year. of rhcir lives. Thl·y mndc lasting impression\ on people and lu§ting promises to each other

The young actresses were incredible. their performances far more com•incing thnn thnt of the seasoned :ictresses playing the aduh pans. The tears and the smiles seemed real and you could almost )Cnse your own childhood unfolding with the characters of the movie. It wa~ the perfect balance of tearjerking and crazy amics. It was full of memorable moments stmight from your own childhood. and reliving those will always be fun. The sound 1rack was a fantastic mi~ of hit, from the '60s and '70s, a definite buy 01 the music s1ore. Remember. this is probnbly a "for !!iri s only" movie; so. Indies. leave the boyfriend at home. pion n slumber pany and ~tan it off with this movie. Spend the night gossiping and play a game of Truth or Dare. TI1is movie will in,pire you. l give II three -~-~-b-.._--

by Stephanie Rowe Semmel Reporter It is hard 10 find a female coming-of-age

movie, let alone one that doesn't make you want to puke. "Now and Then" is a relatively solid story . This movie 1s not a teeny-bopper nick. The story is handled with n great deal of enthusia.sm and ski ll by the younger cast members, which include Christina Ricci from "Addom's Family" and "Casper" and Thora Birch from "Monkey Trouble" and "Patriot Games." On the other hand, the grown-up vel"lions of the characters - including Demi Moore, Melanie Gri(fi1h and Rosie O' Donnell -- seem to have just shown up so they could collect their puychccks. Whether that i\ due to that lackluster writing or lhe briefncs, of their collective appearance,. they were u disappointing pan of the movie. "Now and 111cn" is worth going 10 ,ce as n fun. sentimental nick. l give it three 11nd 11 half feet.
