Weber said the students will still get the remodel. but ii may not be as fantastic as it was going to be. In related news, President Bob Benneu asked the board 10 approve $22.000 for the expansion of the gym lobby. Benneu con tended the lobby isn't big enough to accommodate the amount of people auendi ng games. and the food service booth is not up 10 code. An estimate was done two-three years ago. Ely said. The estimate was for $18,000, but Benne!! asked for the extra amount so the college doesn' 1 run into the same problems as it has with the SUB.The proposal was approved based upon the plans. George Ives, vice chair of the Fatuity Assembly. asked the board pay more aucntion 10 the welfare of the staff. He said 1h01 there have been "seeds of infighting
between the different staff positions on campus" and the board "hasn't fostered moral." The retirement of the teachers on campus is based on a 3 percent yearly increase, but only shows at .2 percent. Thi~ year 25 percent of lhc teachers have bouomcd out. can't cam more than they already have, and the salary 1s not being adjusted to accommodate it, Ives said. Next year 35 percent of the staff will bouom out. The faculty wants the board 10 look 01 and come into compliance with the Vance Jacobs stu dy. The study shows all the community colleges in Idaho, Montunn and Oregon and the wnge scales for the different jobs on the campuses. NIC teachers are underpaid. according to the survey. compared to the other commu nity colleges. The study does not inclu de schools located in Spokane. The board decided 10 have future board meetings at Todd Hnll. The room locoted in the LCC has seating for 75 people.

Dear Editor Lei us give 1hnnks 10 lhe people behind 1he sce nes. You know 1ha1 most of us take things for granted in our everyday lifo. I thmk ii 1s 1ime we give credit where credit is dut.

Copy of letter sent to President Robert Bennett regarding Smith Dear Or. Benncn, SeveruLweek, ngo it was brought to my allcntion 1hnt Dr. Sharon Smi1h was no longer welcome on the North Idaho College campus. II wttS .:,plained 10 me 1h01 she had been "locked out of her orlit'c" due 10 circumstances Ihm were cxpressed to me as "problem~ wi1h her programs." I went 10 the Leaming Center un campus to confirm what I hnd been 1old. I asked somtone in 1hc Learning Center where I may lind Dr. Smith and was mid 1hat ~he was on an "extended leave of abseoce" :md would not be returning in the fore!>eeable future . No other information was offorcd. I continued my investigation nnd was ioformed that Dr. Smith had indeed been restricted from being al her job and that s.hc wa, under mvestiga1ion for the ubo\'e mentioned offenses including, clru.sifying !>IUdents who were not de,erving with u SJSeeial Education designation. I was also told that the situation and conditions put upon Dr. Smith were politically motivated due to a law,uit that she is pursuing with North Idaho College. In my own personal e1.perience with North Idaho College. I have found Dr. Saulh to ~rsonify the professional standards lhat ooe would expect from any faculty member who reprcsenh North Idaho College. Wbeo I needed an advocate in the Fall of 1995. I was insuuc~ to contact Dr. Smith to help me identify why I was having difficulty with a class. Dr. Smith did the necessary testing and assessments that allowed me 10 undentaod my sttenglhs and

She ha) offered uncondilional support to students who have asked for h~r help with studies that are diflicuh for lhe~ ,tud.:nts 10 accomplish. I wish to advocu1<1 for Dr. Smith because she 1s a champion of all sruden1s who are in need of educational a\<e,~men1 and support I respc.:tfolly request !hat the administration of North Idaho College recon,ider Dr Smith') "leave of absl'nce" and allow her to re1urn 10 her job and the s1udenLS that need her caring, UJ1ders1andiog. comp~~ion and uncondhional ~upport. Or.

NTC bullrider Jake Welker is hooked on an 8-second ride.
Por most people, eight seconds goes by in the blink of an eye; for Welker it can sometimes feel like an eternity. It's painful enough for Welker to walk 10 the cupboard for a cup, but every weekend he straddles a mammoth bull with his beat-up knees and tries 10 hang on. "Right now I'm beat·up.

Barbecue tips for those lazy days of summer Barbecuing 1s a family affair around my place ... I cook. they eat. I've learned a few tips and secrets 10 making our cook-outs a bit more fun and ,ucces~ful. One of the things thal makes life simpler for all is keeping napkins and paper plates. plas1ic cups, knives and forks on hand. This allows for eru.y clean-up 1hm involves little time. An added benefit is 1ha1nobody has to figh1over who is going 10 do the dishes. Keep a supply of briquets and ligh1er fluid handy, as one never knows when the craving for a barbecue is going lo hi1. A word to the wise-spend the extra dollar or two on the beuer quality briquets. ll makes a difference. When barbecuing with briquets. place 1hem in a pyramid-shaped pile, douse with lighter fluid and let them set for approximately two minutes. Light and leave it alone until the coals all haven white/gray ash coating on them. (Takes anywhere from 15 to 30 minutes). This is imponant, as cooking with them prior 10 that stage will make the food taste like lighter Auid. When the briquets are ready, spread them ou1 evenly. Make it to where they cover the underside of the cooking surface. Keep a water spray bonle on hand for flare-ups. This can be filled with almost any
We are working our way toward our final doys of the spring scmesler. (Thnnk God! l say. I'm ready for a break!) With these final days comci, the promise of summerDebora Tice hopefully filled Tice's Spices with a few lazy days and substantial amounts of sunshine. I know. some people have full-time jobs and , ummer school. I pity each of you. and I promise 10 think of you all at least once during the summer ... probably when I' m picnicking on the beach. laying out in the sun. gardening. fishing, swimming or just chillin· in the ~unshine. With summer comes lots of heat and usuaJly lighter appetites. Not always, as there is always the perpetual pig. For summer meals I try to keep out of the kitchen; I prefer the barbecue grill lo the stove. (What I really prefer is when someone else does the cooking and I go Scott free!)
liquid: water. apple juice. e1c. Keep it clo,e as the flames need 10 be pur out immediately. (Unless. of course, you like cancer-causing carcinogens on your food.) Just a line mist will do; there is no need to douse the flames as thb also tends 10 put out the charcoal. Try using different sauces and marinades. Almost anything will work. Marinade roasts them in Italian dressing for 24 hours prior to barbecuing. This also works wonders on chicken, pork chops and steaks. Worcestershire sauce is a super marinade for steaks and chops. Coke or Pepsi mixed with ke1chup and a few spices--such as garlic powder. pepper. celery seed, salt, onion powder. etc.--will also make a quick and easy barbecue sauce. For quick and easy additions 10 your barbecue, cut and slice carrots or celery, cauliflower, broccoli. cucumber and green onions. You may also want to try boiled or deviled eggs. Try boiling some potatoes and adding chopped boiled eggs. diced pickles. chopped onions and some mnyonnai~e and mustard ... belier known as pollllo salad. Experiment! Be brave and try something new. Chances arc. you will Iike the end producl. Go ahead, give it a whirl and enjoy your barbecue season. Happy summer to all, see you next fall .

If listening to scratchy music. mikes turned too low to hear and amp chords that keep creating static in the speakers is your cup of tea. then by all means make a rrip to see The Acous1ic Alliance play a set. The band, mode up of members Harold Streeter, Jim Beam and Brenda Jewett. described the kmd of music they played as being "eclectic." a wide variety of music. The actual listening w~~ more like "epileptic," something people don'I really want, bul it happens anyway. To begin with, the band had to compete with the loud noises in the SUB. where a few avid listeners mppcd 1heir feet in time to the music. but the majori1y of the students were largdy inanentive. Beam said that both he and Jewell had both learned to play from Streeter. and Streeter said that he had no formal training in music. just what he had taught to himself. It showed. Jewett had a decent voice wnh a feathery quality
to it. but she just wasn't powerful enough to reach out to the audience and make them foel the mu~ic. even after they turned her microphone all the way up. The one interesting part of the perfonnance was the guitar picking by Streeter. He used picks on two fingers and the thumb to produce a "popping" sound with his guitar.

All I know abou1graphic de~ign is what I've seen on billboards. business cards and brochures. I know what I like and what s1rik~s my interest, bu1 does that make me wonhy to write some kind of opinion anicle on this di~play? Well, maybe it does. In the "real world." graphic designers arc judged by their ability to reach the customers. and that· s me. So I held my head up and walked purposefully. Thiny second~ later I was nipping through Jeff Alarcon·~ ponfolio. I immediately got o feel for what a graphic designer does.
