Adviser goof needs remedied

Open mouth, insert foot I was in 1he Fon Grounds Tavern not 100 long ago. ow I know 1ha1 may come as a shoeI. lo many of you who I.now me, bul nevertheless I was there-and I was lherc to have a beer with a friend of mine who Just happens to wor~ for NIC. We pulled up a couple of chairs to a table al which-qwte b> acCJdcm-two 01her college employ~ were sming.

Well, there we were enjo}ing a couple brew~kics, ""hen one of lhe men mumbled something abo ut a wife, ,aid goodb}e and left the bar.

No sooner had 1he door clost'd behind him ""hen v.ho should walk up and sit down wilh us but NIC Board of Trustco member Bob El>.

Now I knew who Bob was. but he didn't kn!J" me from Carl Bernstein.

However, he knew 1he guys I was silling ""ith, so he came o,er and started BS-ing with the lhree of us.

Bob was after an opinion. He asked if ""e felt ii was unelh.icaJ for him lo take a night class at the college and 001 pay for it since be" as a ll'UStee.

Bob stressed that ii didn't mauer 10 him one \\-8)' or another but that ii was an issue lhc Board should deal with and should mal.e a policy concerning it.

Now I'm ool usually one lo express my opinions. bu1 I came na1 out and told him 1hat I thought ii would be une1hicaJ- 1hat he should ha,c to pay like everybody else. (Remember. now, be still doesn't know who I am.)

Well, 1he conversation finally led to ho\\ important rules and regulations are in everyday life and how they need to be spclle<I ou1in wri ting.

The guy I had wa lked in with said that he was burned a year earlier by not having his rules specifically stated and added. " Dan Brt'cden called me on it."

Wha1 my friend meam 10 say was tha1 Dan Brandes (a complettly dil- fei~nt 5tudent) haJ eal:Eii hiin on ii--! h:ct ha~ :io~i:::g ~o ~G ~·~;.:': }L Bui the damage was done.

What ensued from tha1 point Bob Ely will probably never forget.

Bob pointed his finger a1 my friend and said, " Dan Brt'cden is a joke.

He is nothing but a professional s1udeot."

The dagger ripped through my heart. The only thing that \\ Ould have hurt worse is if he had spilled my full beer.

I then looked at my two cons1i1uems and mouthed the statemen1, "Don't say a word. This bozo doesn't kno"' who I and 1heo l proceeded 10 quiz. Bob Ely as 10 why he 1hough1 l was a joke.

Bob admillcd 1ha1 he had ne,·er me1 or talked \\ ith Dan Breeden bu1 1ha1 all of Dan's columns and editorials were negative and ne,er said anything posith'e.

(I must admit l have started to a few times- in fact. this was going 10 be a positive one umil Bob called me a joke.)

Well. as I continued my line of questioning and I 1old Bob that I thought Dan was a pre11y good guy, he turned and said, ' 'I suppose you're Dan Breeden.·· With that, l reJ1cbed my hand over, shook his hand and commenced to help him pull both of his wing-tipped Nikcs out from 1ha1abyss wrucb most of us use 10 1ake on nourishment.

Now, I don't want to come down on Bob too hard because for 1he next hour we yelled a1 each other quite a bit and I came to realize something-Bob is a regular guy. . \\'.hat I hope Bob realizes is that if indeed I am a joke and my writing IS a Joke, then all the teachers who taught me how to write are jokes as well.

Since I hav~ only been in college two years (not quite a profession yet) ~nd h~vc received all of my formal writing experience at NIC. then that IS a ducc1 rcnec1ion on my English and writing ins1rUc1ors here a1 chis college.

And if they arc jokes. then so mus1 be 1he Board of Trustee members who hired them or keeps them employed.

And if our 1rus1ee members are all jokes... why is nobody laughing?

am:·

Well, it 's about time. Finally the upper administrauon is showing an interest in the decrepit cheerle.1ding program at NlC. It budgeted money for some nc,, uniform • the chosen team members ,,m receive tuition waivers and it has hired a top-notch leader/ ad,iser coach-at a higher wage-to teach some new dance routines and cheers.

So. what's the problem?

Since the big-wigs are sinking all lhis money into the program 10 rejU\enate it. the program should rnrt new and build from the ground up.

But the outgoing rally . quad adviser promised two returning cheerleaders that they could be on the squad again this year, and NIC Dean of Students Le~ Hogan is backing thb up.

The controversy arose "hen the returning young ladies showed up to register for school a nd found out they didn't have a tuition waiver.

Thev cncd ·'Foul! " and the facts of the matter were looked into.

Ail the other ,,..omen tryi ng out will ha\·e to go through a rigorou~ screening session in front o f a panel of unbiased judge~. while these other t\\ O-through an ill-advised j udgment call by an adviser- jus1 " alk on \\hether the} can cheer or not.

One of these l \\ O cheerleaders in question even broke into tears during the bill-pa)ing ceremonies following registration, but it is not known if it \\'85 because she wouldn ' 1 be a cheerleader or because she would have to pay to go 10 school.

The fault certainly does n' t fall on the shoulders of these two indi\'iduals; in fact . if they were good enough cheerleaders to make the team anyway, then line, they've definitely got something 10 cheer abou1.

If they are not as good as other prospective prospects, much of this money seems wasted. After all, it will now be an attempt at a fi rst-rate program but will have second-rate people in it.

But the damage is done. The bes1 that can be hoped for is that an encore performance is nol scheduied for nexl year.

Scpl. 13, 1985/NIC Scntlnel-S-

Wedding bell blues for area taxpayers Over the summer while students were working to raise money for college or basking in the sunshine on the lake's beaches, an event came to the college campus that made it look like a nudist colony in a hailstorm. Suddenly everyone was running around trying 10 get things done.

Just prior to this happening, badly needed sod miraculously showed up to be laid between the new Lakeside T heater and Seiter Hall, and six groundspeople spent an afternoon cleaning one particular area or the campus.

Also. two malntenan« men spent the better part of a day building a set of stairs to lead from the ground to a deck at the hobie cat rental yard which the college owns.

Trees suddenly got trimmed, and according to NIC Grounds Supervisor Al Wonhington. he sprayed mosquitoes in just one area of the campus "for that particular event."

Also, something that the college had been trying to do for over a year suddenly was completed just a few davs before this affair.

A Caterpillar was hirect" to level the collegeowned dock which extends out onto the lake.

So, what ~'as this festive occasion?

No, Ron and Nancy were not coming 10 enjoy NIC's beautiful scener)•-but that's a close guess.

The real reason was that NIC President

Barry Schuler's daughter was getting married on the college campus that fine Saturday afternoon of July 20.

NIC Dean of Administration Rolland Jurgens rationalized all the preliminary work by saying that it was going to get done sooner or later anywa}', so why not do it just prior to the wedding.

Not onl) did many college personnel put time in prior to this gala, but seven custodians. one maintenance man, five security people and four groundspcople actually worked the wedding day itself doing such strenuous jobs as moving chairs and directing traffic.

According to Jurgens, the custodians who worked the event were paid an average of almost S8 an hour and security personnel were paid $6.25 an hour. This comes to a grand total of $471 for wages on that satiated Saturday.

Prior 10 rhe wedding, Schuler paid the college S100 fort.he use of the college's facilities, but, according 10 Jurgens, no other compensation was scheduled until a Sentinel reponer s1aned making some inquiries.

Jurgens quoted Schuler as sa)ing tha.t if someone was going 10 raise a fuss about the whole thing that he would pay the difference.

Jurgens then said 1ha1 he would bill Schuler for $371.

.

ot 10 be picky, but if that initial SIOO was a "facility fee" and Schuler paid che difference . 1ha1 means Schuler received free use of 1he IC facilities.

As far as work done prior to the wedding-which one veteran college employee estimated to be about $3,000-there will be no compensation. That money has apparently been wriuen off as a wedding present to the young couple from area taxpayers.

Too bad the state's representarives down in Boise don't rationalize the same way that NlC officials seem to. If they did, they probably would have said, " Well, NIC is going to gel its new library/ computer science building sooner or later anyway, why don't we build it now before Schuler's daughter gets married."

Because or an article by Doug Clark in the Aug. 4 issue of the Spokesman-Review, Jurgens senr a leuer to the Sentinel and its adviser trying 10 cover the administration's hind end on the wedding issue.

Among other things, the lener said that because the President is the "most visible representative of the college.. .! believe it was in the best interest of NIC to assist the President in making a good impression of NIC with the wedding guests."

And nothing is wrong with making good impressions-unless the taste of wedding cake sours the palate of area t8J(payers.

House cleaning necessary in apathetic ASNIC Student apathy has long been a problem on the NTC campus but . nobody seems to be able to figure out what causes it. .

The ASNIC Student Board may not be the cause, but II sure 1s adding water to the river. . . . ln the boardts first two sessions. there was a big dilemma as to when the board should even hold its regular meetings. Mondays and T uesdays were out because different seoal'ors had lO work, and Thursdays and Fridays were no good because of other conflicts. The memoos chose Wednesdays as a last reson. Once the new freshman senators are elected, the day and time will be juggled once again to accommodate thcLr schedules.

The board will probably end up meeting at night-and as in the past-the members won' t be able to figure out why studenu don't attend the meetings.

Granted, these are students and they have responsibilities, but let's not forget that they are getting a free ride through college and receiving a wage to boot. Therefore they have a responsibilit>' to the student body and to lhe college to represent the students-the job which they were elected to do.

One issue that has recently come up which affects all N IC students is the study roomi art gallery in the basement of the SUB. A committee was formed to look into its use and how it could benefit all interests.

The entire board volunteered to sfa on that committee, but "'hen the meeting was held, not one of them showed except President Kris Dunning.

Another example: All student board members are requirtd 10 attend the meetings and cannot have over three absentees "'itbout good excuse. The ASNIC Student Activities Chairman already has mis~ the

fim tw o meetings-during the initial one he was in the Iron Horse Caboose Room-that's a pretty good excuse.

And now with student elections around the comer, the student board will wonder why no one turns out to vote. lf the student board wants to clean the ASB's house of apathy, they had better sweep their own offices first.

press ethics

Newspaper publisher stresses learning The NIC Board of Trustees (in nn exccu1i ve session n1 its las1 meeting) ruled lhnt the advisor of the Sentinel may net in the capacity of publisher.

Usually the publtsher controls the content (nnd fu111ding) of a newspaper, v.itb dircctJon from the owner. Often the publisher Is the owner.

The Sentinel, hov.c,.·er, 1s owned by NIC for the purpase of educating journalism studenis with the hands-on, minds-on opportunity 10 produce a ne wspaper.

Some publishers control 1he content of their papers for social nnd monetary (advertising) reasons.

At IC, however, lhe Sentinel provides aspiring journalists with possibly their only lifetime oppartunily 10 produce a newspaper with complete freedom from the pressures of profit-seeking, country-dubbing executives- a truly free press!

Stressing facts and fairness. the Sentinel adviser therefore publishes the paper as the learning and squirming product of NIC's educational process.

Hey, NASA, give kids some space "l didn't 1hink it was tha1 bad," 1 told my wife.

"I just think i1's a liule too, well, corny," she answered.

Obviously, she didn'1 think 100 highly of the idea I had for my first Sen1inel column. Oh well, 1've been told tha1 Freud was also urged not 10 publish his theory of psychoscxual analysis.

I had told her about somebody over in the Scau le area who had the great idea of constructing a banana splil which would be over a mile long when completed. According to the shon story I had read in a local newspaper, the whole purpose of the feat would be to arouse public in1eres1for the idea of sending a child into space aboard the space shuu.le. ''Wha t's wrong with lhis guy's plan to build a mile-long banana split to help some 12-)•car-old kid get a f rec ride on lhe space shuule?" I asked. "And please don't say he's got to be bananas!"

I thought the guy had a helluva idea. I doo'1 think most kids get the credit they deserve, and after al.I, others ha"e gotten lheir shot at a free ride, haven't 1hey?

Let's sec, so far there's been a polilician and an Arab prince, and 00\\ an educator will be flyi ng Lhe friendly skies of NASA. Plus, John Denver has asked that a seat be reserved for him. Ob well, it's not exactly C\CJ)"one else. but why not bestO\\ tbe honor upao some descniog kid? Beuer yet, wh)• not pick t\\O kids-a boy and a girl.

My wife l'lllmly explained to me !.hat in her opinion the idea would ne"er catch on because finding 1he most dcsening children would be nearly impossible. She reasoned tha1 at least a couple million children v.ould have to be screened in the search. and besides. the whole process would not be a fair one because some\\here, someho"', some underpri,eleged kid would no1 have the same oppartunity to panicipate that more fortunate children have.

I'll admit it (hesitantly). She had her paint, but I sliU think the idea has ils merits. Kids with their o,erabundance of curiosity, enthusiasm and energy would be perfect passeng~ aboard a space shuttle mission.

Just sil and wa1ch children at pla} somc1ime, and you will be able 10 sec ho\\ seriously they take learning new things.

li's easy for me to imagine the sense of wonderment that might engulf the lucky boy or girl chosen LO be the youngest Captain Kjrk in NASA history. Twent}'·lhrce years ago, I was dreaming regularly of the same thing that could become reality for some lucky kid today. Back in the m.id-oOs, a friend, who lived next door, and I often spent hours huddled around a 1.elcscope studying the heavens and watching occasional satellites move quietly across lhe sky at night. I often tried to think what ii would be like to be up there looking down upan the eanh.

Actually, I don'1 think a well organized search would be that difficult.

Something on the order of a national science contest might make the task a little simpler. The contest could be spansored by school districts nationwide, and C\'cry child auending a public school would have a chance to panicipate if they desired. Experiments, submitted by students in a nationv.ide contest, ha\e already been done by astronauts on at least one shuttle mission. ~1> " ifc asked me what would be so beneficial from sending children on a shuule mission, and I told her that it wasn't certain that anything beneficial \\Ould result. Howe,.er. 1do knov. that more than a fC\\ things we take for granted ha\e come from the countr)''S space program. Hightech plastics, fuels and computer gadgetr)' arc just a few examples. Who can tcll wbat might be the result if deserving )Oung minds are subjected to the stimulation of space?

I have m, doubt.5 now whether I'll e-.er ge1 my chance to be an astronaut, but perhaps it isn't out of the question for some ambitious child going Lo school, e"en here in Coeur d •Alene.

The light.s go out, the cosrumcs go bad: on the racks and the set pieces arc loaded onto the uuck as the Car· rouse! Playm or the Coeur d'Alene Summer Theatre end another season.

Sept. I marked the end of the 18th year for the group headed by producer/ genera.I manager Robert !l,loe.

The 198S season-"'hich offered the four shows .. ,b me,.. "Sugar... ..The King and 1•· and .. Evn.a ..-brought in about 1,000 more theaterg~ than the previous )e2!. "'hich helped the company sta) out or the red and ~ured a 1986 season.

The players. who ha,c come from all across the na· 110n. ha\ e mixed fedings about the close of the run.

They are happy to see the end or a long summer of

hard work and late nights, but lhcy also regret the md of a suc:ccssful season and the parting company.

The Coeur d'Alene Summer Theatre has sur-1,·cd as long as 1l has for a couple of reasons. First. the astute management of Moc enables the compan) 10 survi\·c "'ithout benefit of state or federal grant mone~.

Second. v. hen the company docs get into 1roublc • the local business community has (sometimes grudgingly) joined forces "'i1h generous prh·a1e donor\ 10 defray any deficit 1ha1 may be incurred by poor attendance or any other rC3Son.

john hughes Pious politics pondered I grow increasingly disturbed when I pick up a popular magazine and see the Rev. Jerry Falwell on the cover and the words "The Growth of Fundamentalism."

I don't care what people believe or whom they choose to lead them in those beliefs. Howe\'cr, I don't like Jerry Falwell and I don't like the fact that he is pushing his way into American politics "ia T\' religion. l strongly question President Reagan's judgment in being so visibly aligned with Falwell.

The complexities of modern sociel)", the delicate balances of international relations and the ever present l)ffSOnal struggles that we all have with the abstract concept of moral.it) male II ,it.al that lumiity prevail in the thought of our national leaders and in c-,eryone ~ on lhe planet: the survival of said planet may depend upon it.

We must not allow ourselves to fall into the trap of escape through religion. We cannot deny the ways of the "world" and think that we can live removed from its realities: "Ob yes. '4C are poisoning our planet, our kids are coming out of high school practically illiterate and the most popular films today arc 'Rambo I through 12.' But that's OK because Jesus loves us and we love Jesus."

Furthcnnore, I can't help but question lhe si nceriry of Falwell. Jn George Bernard Shaw's preface to "Androcles and the Lion," he writes, "Every reader takes from lhe Bible wbat be can gel." I think Falwell has taken what he could get from the Bible and used the electronic media to turn it into an empire that includes a private jct (made in Israel), a university which forbids freshman and sophomore dating (no repression building there) and a television studio that employs 62 telephone operators to record pledges after each of Falwell's gospel shows (call now, folks, God needs your dollars).

Falwell also heads a group called the Moral Majority, which preaches that people should bury their beads in the sand while keeping their noses in everybody else's business (an anatomical feat indeed). Who are Jerry Falwell and the Moral Majority to tell us what is moral and what is 001?

How do they know?

I don' t understand what Falwell was doing in South Africa: Religious leaders are not politicians. Then be actually came back and told us to suppon the South African government against what be called communist, anti-apartheid dcmoostraters. That's morality?

In II Spokesman-Review article (Sunday, Sept. I) former President Jimmy Caner said, " President Reagan's alliance with politically active right wing religious fundamentalist is an 'obnoxious' attempt to crca1e a 'Christian government."'

Carter is no atheist: however, be does rcali.ze that one of the basic tenet.s of our constitution is separation of church and state. Falwell's popularity with the TV-religious does not give him political clout or make him an C.'(pcn on domestic or foreign affairs.

This is no time for the people of this counl.I)' to become t.be docile faithful, turning our backs on our fellow man. We arc all "sinners" and we all must share this eanh with tolerance and reason bold.mg us together.

According 10 manager John McFarlad, the buildmg is dosed during v.1n1cr months because of healing problems and a lack of visitors and \'Oluruccr help.

The museum was established in 197.l and offers an in-depth acc:ount of area hi.story from 1878 10 1898. Originally constructed as a po"dcrhousc in 18i8, the building houses several interesting exhibits, including a layout of Fon Sherman as it was when r1m built.

As Ed shared this li11lc ditty with me from his rather liberal grandfather. be jerked back on his line and set 1he Caddis fly in the mouth of the 12-ioch cutthroat trout.

He worked him for several minutes and then landed him in the soft sand beneath his feet. Juitgling pole. camera, creel. line. glas~s and fish, he removed the hook and released the fish back into the mcam.

According to the divine la" or the upper St. Joe Ri"cr. you can only keep the ones over 13 inches. l:d will be back next year for that one.

Boredom clubs life into DGA cup Great lbings throughout sportS rustory have evolved from boredom, but last year an exciting new sport was born during the ultimate in college boredom-finals week.

All study and no play would surely end in sudden death.

I'm predicting this new sport lO be lhe next pastime of poor/bored college dormics.

ILS official title is the Dorm Golf Association or DGA, but as of YET the PGA has refused to sanction or even recognize il as an existing entity.

My roommate and I have seen the game grow from old credit cards stapled to wrapping paper rolls- used as putters, of course-to the highly specialized state of Lhe present 28-inch Toys 'R' Us golf club set for ages 8 and under. These sets retail for S6.50, and a complimentary Domino's Pizza soda pop cup works nicely for the golf hole.

The beauty of the sport i~ that it can be played anywhere, an}1.ime, for free, although the men's h -,1.:e-r< a ji<r llt 10 p' • ou ' • • '

Our first official DGA match really teed off some of the dormics. The game was scheduled for a Wednesday-we were pre-med-with a 10 p.m. tee time.

All would lllve gone smoothly had it not been for the noisy No. I plastics during the fim drives.

To compensate in somewhat of a fairway, we decided to play tluough with the quieter No. 7 tins. However, the couch traps around the first green presented a problem.

We needed our \ledges. But neither of us had ever used them before. We gathered our concentration and strenglh. We tried them. They worked' With both of us inserting wedges under the sofas. they moved easily.
