Child care changes creates controversy on college campus by Shelly Raynor
Changes have been made in the coUege's day<are and preschool programs, and some faculty and administrotors have different opinions on the allcratioll5. In addition to an orgaruzational change, the preschool program no longer rccruiu all of its children. According to preschool coordinater Jcaruinne Mllchcll, her child-care program enrollment has been reduced from IS children to eight In order to accom, modate seven children from Carol Lindsay's day-care program. While MitcheU said she hod no commcm as 10 why the changes were made, Dean of Academic Affairs Dennis Conners i aid the changes were made for two reasons. "Carol Und<ay and those teachers are now under direction of Tony Stewart in social sciences," he said "Before they fell under s1udcm services. which posed a personnel problem." Since David Lindsay, Carol's husband. IS Denn of Student Service~. a spouse would ha~e been su pcn ~ing o spome, according to Conners. In 11ddi1ion, Conners said the preschool program now lodges 11bou1 half or at$ students Irom Ihe da} cart In order 10 nb~orb more students from facuh)', starr ond student~ rothtr than community members.

Board approves replacement of weather-worn roof by Shelly Raynor
New roof covering on the Studen1 Union Building will cost Sl7,79J. During its Sept. 24 meeting, the board of trustees passed a proposal 10 replace the rencctive seal coating and fo3m on the roof. According 10 Rolly Jurgens, dean of administration, since 1hrcc.fourth5 of the roof's coating is worn, the weather hns C3USed the foam underneath to deteriorate also.
The funds, Jurgens said. v.ill be pulled out of student services for the rt"palrS. In addition, the board t1ppro\·cd the plant reserve fund, including 3 recommendation 10 improve the college's dile road and do some landscaping near the area. The plan included building a jogging lt1ld e.11cnding off the dike road, alon2 with landscaping behind Lal..esid; Thealer.
An energy management system was av,arded SI0,000. This system consists of a computtr program that would con· trol all elcctrici1y on campus. including lighting and sprinlclcr automation. lo addition, SI0,000 will be spent to remove asbestos in boiler room tunnels and 10 re-install insulation. Clare_nee Haught, direct0r of vocational school, said he has been 11oorking on developing two programs.
The brake and technician course and the maintenance program would be offered 10 anyone, according 10 Haught, but would benefit former Potlatch Mill workers. The maintena.nce course, Haught said. will teach s1udcnu how 10 be like Snyder, a character on the television program "One Day at a Time."

Examining college issues from the stand point of changing social expectntions and undemanding i.hc wgcr issues and their implications for NlC is a goal of the faculiy's DC" seminars. The facult}' seminars. an idea of Dennis Conners, dean of academic affairs, arc made up of interested faculty. staff and administrators who "ill meet in groups of about 20 on ,-anous Fnday afternoons throughout the year. A..rcording to Conners, the idea for faculiy meetings was inspired by seminars he attended at Harvard Universiry last summer. "Sever.ii coUege deans and presidents were selected to spend a couple of "eeks at Harvurd last summer:· Conners said. "It wns really a wonderful program." Leadership, financial management, and curriculum change were among the topics discussed, Connm said. In a written proposal to IC fac:ulty, staff and 11dministrators. Conners smted he has seen no sustained discussions at NIC regarding the qu11li1y of college issues. The seminars "ould gi,·c ind!,idu11ls the opponunity 10 discuss problems 11nd events. and offer helpful ideas and solutions. The rcponse 10 Connm' proposru was good ";t.b rough!>' one-fourth of NIC's facul· t), administration and staff deciding to participate in the ~minars. Ex.a.mining the core curriculum, discussing what sl..ills students should be IC11v1ng school with and stud)ing teaching methods are :ill topic ideas of the seminars. O\"cr the years. Conners said he has gathered , arious readings. case studies and other reference m111crial.s i.hich "'iU be disuibuted 10 participants during the seminn.rs. Values and traditions used to be learned through educational intituuons, but now the media bas Laxen o,er those roles, Conners s.iid. A goal of the seminars is to study wh) tlu.s has happened and figure n way to reverse the roles 10 how the)' once were. The participants in the seminars ha,e been divided into three groups which will meet throughout October, November and December. Conners said. The groups meet an the Shoshone room of the SUB on Oct. 16, 23, 30; ov. 6. 16, ~0; and Dec. 4, 11, 18. 8} meeting in smaller groups, Conners said he thinks more can be nccomplbhcd 5IOC'C ·t will male lhe discussions easier for him to manage.

ken allen Can anyone tell me wha1 's going on \\ilh the Democrats? ls it possible for the entire party to be made up of womanizers, 1hieves and unknO\\ ns; or arc the recent presidential candidate downfalls simply a pan of the natural elimina1ion process?

He gave excellenl speeches 10 his ga1hered supporters. The problem-his speeches were previously spoken, apparently by 01her people. The plagarism charges were his downfall. And most rccemly, Colorado Rep. Patricia Shroeder announced she was dropping out of the race because she couldn' l handle the inevitable publici1y. Shroeder said she couldn'l handle ha,ing every human contac 1 become a pho10-opport u nil y. My big ques1ion is no1 why, bu1 who? Who is Pa1ricia Shroeder and, for 1hat matter, who is Joseph Bidcn?

Hagadone deserves praise, Dean Rolly Jurgens says Dear Editor: I am disappointed by and disagree with the article in your last issue entitled " Hagadone pals spit sweetness at zone hearing." I cannot concci\"e or any community not excitedly welcoming a clean business v.h.icb will add many milliorlS 10 the tax base, employ several hundred peo· pie, encourage tourists tO , tOp and spend money in Coeur d'Alene and a1 the same t.i.me clean up the area now oppupied by Potlatch. The frosting oo the cake is that any profit (and I hope there is some) will probably stay right here in town. When the propeny first became available, I Lalked to Mayor Ray Stone about forming a COMonium of city. county, st.ate and federal agencies to acquire the Potlatch propcrt}' for public 11Se. The Mayor either chose no1 to foUO\lo my suggestion or be was unable to put the package together. rdo not believe that his band conuact \loith the Hagadone Corporation would have influenced him negatively about my idea. It is simply 100 big an issue for that. In any e,cnt. I believe it's time the community members began, as you ~y, 10 pour swecuies.s from their mouths about Mr. Hagadone. I personally think it's warranted and necessary to coun1erac1 the \i.ciousnes.s of many of these who would disapprove or the Hagadone plans. The public access to private property, which in this case happens t~ be a beach, is a much larger issue. l know several beaches on Lake Coeur d Alene 1ha1 I'd like to 11Se but they too arc private. Mr. Hagadone should have the same rights as any prh•ate propeny owner-no more. no less. I ask you, the Scolincl, has he asked for more or less? Siocerly, Rolly Jurgens D~ of Administration

Response
Wrestler clenches fist ( opinion Dear Editor:
Recently, in the Sept 28th edition of the NIC Sentinel, there was an article which portrayed a coach who went out of his way to put his a1hle1es into classes where the teachers arc known for 1hcir ioclinauons to help students. Notic,og the canoon tha1 \\COi along with 1he story, which I presume was supposed to be a wrestler and his coach, I had a hard time pu11ing names and the picture together. But being the " dumb" wrcs1ler l am, l finally got it. Wanting to tear the face off the person who wrote it, 1 rcaliz.cd that probably wasn't the right step of action to take. So I relaxed and read the acticle again, but still I found myself with my fist clinched, still wanting 10 rip his or her head off. But I knew it wasn't a lawful thing to do, so I began 10 write. There arc several things that bothered me in thi~ article. I wasn't too upset at the fact that the caption stero-typcd wrestlers as a bunch of hoodlums with no brains and no desire to belier them.selves. But the 1hing eating at me the mos1 is 1he fact that the article took a direct shot at one of the men whom I respect the most, head wrestling coach John Owen. Owen who has made the wrestling team something to be proud of, had accusations said abou1 him that are just pure fiction (jus1 like the character) In 1he Mory). Saying things such as, he 1akes s1eps 10 ensure hi) wrestlers pa~s classes for selfish re~ons, 1S totally absurd. That s1atcmen1 bothered me the mos1 because there's something 1111:sc people don't know. There arc mnny high school suue wrcs1ling champions on the team. This being 1ruc, tho~e wrestlers had the opportunlly nnd / or ~cholnrships 10 wrestle elsewhere. So why did 1hcy come to NIC? One re~on is becnu~c the NIC wrcs1ling progrom hos been the best N JCAA in 1hc nation for 1.hree )'ear~ in a row. But there 1s pro.
\.
bably a bigger reason. Many, but not all of us, didn't have the gpa to be e.°'ccpted into the major college of our choice. So we consider NIC as a stepping stone to a four-year college where we can better ourselves as athletes and students. Back 10 the s1atcmcn1 that
bothered me the most-that coach Owen is using our abilities and talent for his own success. If this were true, he wouldn't care if we got a degree or v.ent on to a major college. Well here a.re some facts in his coaching career: in the past 11 years he has had 32All·Americans. Out of the 32, only five haven't graduated from college and only three haven't gone on LO a major college to wrest.Jc. Wow! I can also name 100 times coach bas given up his time for us and given hope and a second chance to those who didn't deserve it. \Vhethcr you believe it or not doesn't mailer, what m.aners is tha1 we a.re loyal to coach Owen because be docs care. He's just more than a coach-he has to be or we wouldn't be the best. To me that's what matters, but not as much as the fact that when I came here I had a 1.9 gpa and couJdn't wrestle. I now have a 2.7 and will graduate with an A.S. degree. and go on 10 a major college knowing I'm an All-American and 1'll be able to wres1le. Much of th.is is due Lo Coach Owen and the fact that he cared about me as a person iMlead of some dumb wrestler. Owen is in the business of makmg his athletes betLer wrestlers and bet· ter ~tudents. Ir he has to do that b) using teachers 1ha1 give students extra help in the class. well so be it. Conch Owen does his Job and he docs care. Because of Utis, "e are tough 10 beat for anyont. We are the best and so ll> he. P.S. Unlike the person who v.rote the arude m the paper. I have the guts to "rue m) name on this. Sine(n:l). Jim Putman. v.rcstler

Libby, Moot., wimessed the death of a 9-year-old boy who went fishing at Flower Creek-or any creek-for the last time. He scurried home after school, grabbed his pole and headed for the shallow waters where he hoped 10 catch the evening's dinner. His mother saw him onJy once more before his dea1h. According to her, within the hour he came home all muddy and said somebody was chasing him. Then he headed back to Lhe secret fishing hole, running on the rocks which later would be pounded against his bod). killing him. It wasn't too difficult for search and rescue teams to find the boy's body; apparcmJy. the murderer didn't try to hide it. Community members are stunned. They're not only stunned that the boy is dead, but also that the 23-year-old suspect was released from jail just about six months ago. He had been sentenced 10 a five-year prison term after he raped a boy in the same town, by the same creek, at tbe same place. Tben, just two and one-half years later, he was released on good behavior. The suspect's mother said he killed the 9,year-old. She doesn't doubt it; neither does the town of Libby. The trial probably will be heard in another county, or state. Citizens wam 10 give the guy a death sentence. Can they be blamed? They're mad that this man is out of prison. They don 't believe he has paid the price for his first offense-he hasn't. These facilities are supposed co correct such behavior. They e\'identl) didn't in this case. Maybe it was the judge's fault for onJy giving the guy a fiveYear sentence. • Or maybe it was the state's fault for only making him serve half of his tmn, releasing him on good behavior. Hov.. docs the state know he's been behaving well? Surely they SB\\ records, but is that enough 10 determine the sanity of this man? It's e\'eo hard to say what good behavior means. Maybe he clean· ed up his plate and made his bed. Or perhaps he didn't auempt 10 break out of prison, or he didn't pick any fights. Whate,er the reason, he shouldn' t have been rewarded for being a good boy. The child's mother probably wonders too. If she were 10 sentence the man, he surely \\Ould get what's coming to him . Then maybe she could sleep at night.

Johnson glories in student triumphs by Shelly Raynor
She's gloried in seeing a student hug her book, and she·s frcued over others often lea•ing their book at home. But as long as bo1b such s1udcnt, arc around NIC, so will award-winning instructor \'ugmia Johnson. "I had aa English literature s1uden1 hug her booli. and say. 'I love this bool...

California deciding what would stay and what would go. The si.x people are kno"'n as the M otion Picture Association of America. ln other words, they're the people who put ratings on movies.

Ricks' film editor really censor in disguise tim clemensen The Merriam-Webster Dictionary defines edit: revise and prepare for publication. The same dictionary defines censor: an official wbo inspcclS printed matter or sometimes moLion pictures with power Lo suppress anything objectionable. I feel an editor is someone who uses b.is/her power to revise/ correct something for publication or release, and a censor is someone who does lhe same thing, but the subject is usually o bjec· tlonable. The definitions are extremely similar but have opposite meanings. While sitLing around the home office one clay, I reached for the pile of incoming newspapers from OLher colleges around the nation. All of a sudden, a newspaper caught my eye. It was the Scroll from Ricks College in Rexburg. Idaho. The headline read, "Campus film editor 'bleeps' movies." The lead sLory on the front page was a glorious praise of a film editor (film censor). whose job is to make films accepLable LO fit the limited standards of Lhe Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints, the Mormons. The Scroll anicle stated thaL film editor {film censor) Ric Page inserts silent gaps and spaces in films that are objectionable to make them acceptable for viewing by the student populace, (sound familiar?) 10
His job is to remove bad la:ngu.age, u n n ~ violence and sexual pennissiveoess. Granted: Ricks is a private college and can do whatever it pleases on ilS campus as long as it does 001 break federal or Sta.le laws. By no means am I condoning violence, necessary or u n n ~· (please would somebody e.q,lain the difference between nceess.ary and unnecessary violence to me, as I was raised to believe that all violence is unnecessary), bad language, sexual permissiveness and/ or drug use. The school received a PG rated version of Eddie Murphy's "Trading Places" but since has decided co never show one of hls films, edited or unedited, again. The article also explains that the Motion Picture Association of America set up the rating system so Lhat parents could be helped in the .selection of rums for their children. College students have the responsibility to make lhose decisions for themselves. After 17 or 18 years people can make their own decisions about bow to entertain themselves. Personal decisions of LbaL narure shouldn't be made by someone else. The action of Lhis film editor-film censor-is appalling. Films go through an extensive process before they are rated and released through the guidelines set by the MP/\A. By no means should a director's or producer's work be bastardized by anyone with a dark closet, a projector and a piece of black tape. The duty of a film editor is to edjt rough spolS in a film to make a movie now better. A film editor usually is employed by the person/persons wbo make lhe film. If these films are so bad, Lhey wouldn't be released in the first place.
The Scroll article concludes by saying that until imperfections are reduced, Ricks will continue 10 cover Lhe mistakes. What are the imperfections? Modem-day life perhaps. Movies deal with tbe world around us, sometimes fictional and sometimes realistic. If the movies of today are so terrible, then the society and the world itself must be Lerrible? With a piece of tape, this film censor virtually covers the eyes of those he is employed to help educate. How long can someone remain in the dark abom the world we live in? Violence, bad language, drug usage and sex are a pan of today's world, like it or not. Maybe this absurd pipedream of keeping peo· pie and/or students in the dark would explain the high suicide rate of Mormon teenagers. Recently in my literature: class, a student was quoted as saying "Life is not an elective, but a required course"-meani.ng that you have 10 take the good with the bad, whether it is in day-1o-day life or in a motion picture. Ricks and its censor should stick with Disney and the rest of the other one percent of films that they have found acceptable to the college's limited ideals, or show the films Lhe way the MPAA and the filma.kers wanted tbem to be seen. Censorship is wrong in any form, whether in political beliefs or in eotenainment. 11 is aJso hard to believe that a college newspaper would give such a glorious praise 1_0 a censor, but l guess a.t Ricks the only news IS good. Besides, who would want to upset an elderGod forbid.

War between CD and DAT heats up by David Gunter Take heed audio equipment buyer-Lhe age of digi!.al sound i.s upon us.
As listeners, many have accu.sLOmed themselves lO enjoy music in the analog format, a procedure by which the sound. is stored in grooves on a record album or as magnetic impulses on an audio t.ape. To listen, a needle is dragged through the grooves or tape winds across a rnaal bead lO activate the sign.a.I. the result is music-along with surface noise, tape hiss, bead wear and worn out acedJes. A frw years ago, critics scoffed when I.be compact-disc (CD) player appeared on the market. The firSt widely avaiJable digilaJ audio format, the CD's signal is sJ.Ored on a melaJ disc-much like a file is saved on a computer disk-and the signal is then played back (or "read") by a laser. Initially, the ma1n charges leveled against the CD format were lhat it was lOO expensive and offered next to nothing in terms of available material to listen to. Since that time, the sound of CD's has become an ever-present pan of our listening lifenyle, with the prices oo the units themselves down to as little as S300. At borne, in the car and on the radio, compact discs are quickly replacing the time-honored album and casseue as the format of choice. TI1e advent of the portable CD has brought jogger&. bicyclists and the generaJly anti-social beings among us into the ranks of digital audiophiles, as well. "The CD format bas pretty much taken over," according to businessman Jim Watkins, who owns st~eo outlets in Coeur d'Alene, Spokane and Sandpoint. "When we put a system together these days, the CD player is usually substituted for a turntable,'' he said.
The advantages of the CD o·.-cr records and tapeS are obvious-virtually no tape hiss or surface noise,
Lice of taping copyrighted material onto cassette, they bavc become pos.itively furious over the prospect that lhe DAT might become a household word. The reason is the nature of digital recording. Since it offers absolate perfection of sound, the companies fear that piracy of their products might go unchecked, further den.ting corporate profits. The DAT format suffers from the same criticisms as the early CDs: lhey remain fairly expensive, with prices ranging between $1500 and $2000, and only a handful of pre-recorded selections available to lhe consumer. At present, lhe DAT players are only being marketed in Japan, but virtually all of the big audio manufacturers are gearing up for an assault as soon as some legislative decisions about home tapiog arc reached by congress. One of those maou facturers. Marantz, h0$ plans to introduce its DAT unit on the Ameri.can market this winter, with or without a court battle. "There are a lot of questions abouc the DA Ts at this poim," Watkins said. "buc the picture should dear up in the nc:."t year. •· CD or DAr? According to Watkins, both formats bring the benefits of digital sound to the audio equipment buyer, but the CD offers rhe largesi variety of equipment and musical choices. As lower prices keep pace with advances in technology, perhaps the best bet would be 10 hang on to that primitive analog system and wait out the legislative donnybrook that looms on lhe horizon. Wherever the chips eventually fall, digital audio has changed listening to music forever.
zero distortion, dramatically improved frequency respoose and oo loss of sound qualiry due to continued playing. "The price/ quality ratio and increased availability of new and old re.leases on CD bas made it a favorite with the average consumer," Watkins said.
Enter the CD's only drawback; tbe inability to record. Because it is a playback-0oly format, the door has b<xo opened to another competitor on the audio front, the digital auclio tape (DA The DAT has the advantage of being able 10 both record and play back in the dig.ital domain.

Campus organization strives to combat local racial prejudice by Sue Halley A main goal of the NIC chapter of the Kootenai County Task Force on Humao Relations is emphasizing the need 10 give everyone an equal chance, member and ASN!C senator Ed Lynn said. The purp-0se of the organization is to provide all possibe support to the ma.in chapter of the KCTHR. The NJC chapter was initiated last year by former student Cheryl Barnes and current ASNIC vice president Ed White after they witnessed the success of the Coeur d'Alene Senior High program. The chapter was very succes.sful last year, according to Tony Stewan. polirical science instructor and taskforce activist. Their help "~th the Manin Luther King Day celebration was invaluable Stewart said.
The chapter was involved io helping with the coordination of last summer's human right:S celebration at the park, the beach dedication to the Coeur d'Alene Indians aod the mailing of 3,000 lener~ for the North west Coalition Against Malicious Harassmenr. This year is going to be even better, according to coordinator and ASNIC senator Barbara Crumb. "I'm really excited about this year," Crumb said. " We h.3,·e a lot of in\'olvement. What we need to do now is t.o establish our goals and direction for this year." The group's main discussion centered around why members had joined. "I've always grown up around Whites," Crumb said. ·'It's hard for me to understand discrimination,
but I live three miles from the Arya.a Nation's headquarters, and J hate it. This is my way of saying that I don't think it's right." " The problems of the world aren't racial; they're hum.an ones," Lynn said. "The goal of I.he club oughr to be to give every human being a chance." The major event planned for the chapter is a regional convention Oct. 23-25, involving representatives from Idaho, Washington, Oregon, and Montana. Bmh ke)'llote speakers and work.shops are piano· ed. On November 8, the chapter will help with a banquet honoring 250 members of the KCTHR. "These kids are really special," Stewart said. "This is a terribly imponanr issue we're working on, and they're doing a terrific job."

Cheerleaders ready for seasons, need mascot by Chris Barber
With the basketball and wrestling seasons fast approaching. the North Idaho College cheerleaders arc busy gelling ready 10 motivate fans and lead the Cardinal athletes to victory. Eght NIC studentS-1..isa McGuire, Regina Le!schc, Elaine Heston. Marnee Lambctt, Grcua Bailey, Trevor Abeln, Bill Swckton and Mike Doran-will make up this year's Cardinal cheerleaders. According to Linda Bennett, the chcerlcading supervisor. these studcntS have to work very hard bolh in the classroom and in prcperauon to do the cheers. "Wc:swtcd practicing in June and practice almost two hours a day," Bcnnc:u said. "The cbc:erlc:adcrs are on weight programs, aCTobics and all are doing gymnastics. "Most people think checrleading is real euy, but ii 'snot. !1takes a lot of strength and muscle control. The guys have 10 have a lot of power 10 hold the girls with one hand above their head and the girls have to have the muscle con1rol to hold as stiff as po1siblc so the guys won't drop them. It is very scarey being thrown around.·• she said. 11us past summer the cheerleaders went to a summer camp in Sall Lake City, Utah. The camp ran for four day$ and co11ered many aspecu of chcerteading, such as dances, pyramids and cheers. The checrlcaden received all superior ratings Bennett said, and brought home many ribbons along with
one first place trophy for their routine in 1he fight song's competition. "It was a 101 offun and a 101 of hard work." Bennett said. "I was really proud of hov. "'cll "''did.Now we are looking forward 10 the upcoming seasons." The wne of the all-girl cheerleading squads arc fast approaching it's dcm~. Bcnncn said. She stated 1ha1 men arc more and more becoming an integral part of cheerlcading. Checrleading is no long~ just leaning to the nght, leaning to the left and clapping >·our bands. NO" stuntS and lifts are a \Cry major pan of cheerlcading. and these stunts need very strong males. "Cheerleading is ,·cry ph)'Sical," Bennett said, "and, yes, ll is \'C1")' athletic. I think more and more g\l)'S \\ill get invol"cd in cheerlead.ing when they realize this. The people "'ho say that cbecrlcading docm'1 take any athletic abilily arc really clueless." The cheerleaders "ill be hold 3 checrlcading clinic ~o,·. 7 for all the mid-high schools around the area. The clinic actually ...,;ll be a combination of several small clinics, such as dancing and cheen. "We didn't get much in the way of money from the budget Ibis year, and this is one way we plan to cam money," Bcnneu said. ·•we did raise some this summer with car washes and bake sales, but this diruc "'ill really help and it "',11 be a lot of fun."
The kids attending the clinic will get a T-shirt and lunch in addition 10 performing al halftime of the Cardinal-Montana Technical College basketball game Nov. 15. Bcnnen said. This year the cheerleaders will get help from the pep band, \\hu;h according to Bcnnelt, really helps to get the audience involved in the cheers. Currently Bcnneu is looking for someone 10 be the mascot. He or she would wear the Cardinal outfit and help get people 1011olved in10 t.he game. she said. The mascot would help with some of the cheerleaders' pyramids and spotting for lifts. Bcnnen stated that v.hoever got lo be the masco1 would get some tuition money and a P.E. credit. "h's kind of funny. Dean (NIC's Activities Director Dean Bcnne11) and I used to go to the NIC basket· ball sa= and wrestling matches. and the cheer leading was a joke," Benneu said. "I felt sorry for them. I mean it was hard sitting in the stands wa1ching them and hearing everyone make jokes about their routines. "I told Dean that I could do a belier job at teaching them. and the next thing I kne"' Les Hogan (former NIC dean of students) gave me a call and offered me a job. All they needed was someone who could give them more time and really enjoyed teaching them new cheers, and I really like too."
