ity College enrollment rises Enrollment at San Jos~ City College bas risen again. More than 700 more students were the flrst day of school than were last spring. As of Jan. 23, there were 9,035 students at City and over 8,300 students at Evergreen. numbers are expected to rise too," said Eskew, the director of admission and record. We still have mini-semester classes starting on 1, and Saturday classes starting on Feb. 27 ." "What's especially impressive about our enrollis that fact that we experienced a rise enrollment from last fall while many schools a drop in enrollment during the spring." Gilbert Sanchez, the associate vice-chancellor enrollment manager. "We been fairly consistent more students from year to year." Sanchez attributes the increase in enrollment to blitz of multimedia advertising that City College running in November. "We started advertising on seven radio stations on I. On Jan. 4, (we) ran ads on 52 screens in every theater in the area and ran ads in every local "Sanchez said . "Overall , the advertising

campaigning reached an estimated 7.3 million people." While enrollment has gone up, the number of student complaints have not. This could be attributed to more students becoming familiar with the STAR system of registration as well as some other measures that have been taken to assist students. "Lines were a lot better for adding classes this semester than they were last fall," said Diane Paskerson, an environmental science major. "The lines looked long but went really fast. I only waited about 10 minutes." However, not all students were pleased. "I bad to wait 15 to 20 minutes just to ask a question. It was ridiculous." said Carolyn Smythe, a medical assistant student. 'There were even lines to use the STARs computers in the admission and records office." "Our President, Dr. Tsang, is very student oriented. He has the Office of Admissions and Records as well as other student services open on Saturday to help accommodate students who work during the week." Eskew said. "We were opened Saturday the past couple of weeks and many students have already taken advantage of the Saturday hours." "We're pretty pleased with the enrollment numbers and we expect them to continue to climb," Sanchez said.

"In order for the upcoming FA presidential election to go forward without legal challenge, I am resigning my po ilion." Although Shaw listed several complaints in hi grievance, one of the main complaints was over the

Beware of strangers bearing cell phones

F

ree stuff, free stuff, sign-up for our credit card/ cell phone/ beeper and you'll get free stuff! M&M's, cell phones, t-shirts and credit cards are being hawked with flashing lights, large signs and booming voices at San Jose City College and colleges around the country. While they do provide needed services by coming on campus, what is the real price to students? Vendors who are attached to large companies pay the Associated Student Council $100 a day to use our campus and tbe smaller vendors spend $50 a day. The money is arguably needed, but is it etbical for a student run association to make money off of vendors who add to student debt? What is the real price to the student for all of tbe 'free stuff'? What do companies gain by giving stuff away and offering low introductory rates? Two tbings: consumer loyalty (by hooking the consumer young they gain tbe possibility of lifelong customers) and also naive, college students are often not be as savvy as their older counterparts and thus more vulnerable to 'creative contract' add-ons. For instance, a credit card vendor who was on campus the first week of school offered student<; an extremely low interest rate and money back on purchases for using his credit card. However, in fine print on the back of the application it was also added !bat there would be a $29 additional fee for all late payments and that tbe interest rate on tbe card would raise after six montbs. It does not sound like such a good deal anymore,

does it? That is not an isolated incident, however. Another popular vendor on campus the first week of the semester was a cell phone vendor. For tbe low base price of $22.49 a month, students were told tbat they would get a free cell phone with 300 free minutes a montb air time, on tbe off hours, and 60 free minutes any time. Sounds good, right? Well what happens if you want to spend more !ban ten minutes a day on the phone at night, and more than 2 minutes a day on tbe phone during the day, and who doesn't? Let's do the math. If you spend at least 30 minutes a day on tbe phone during peak hours, 7 a.m. to 7 p.m ., as most do, (that's why !bey are called peak hours) then you will spend 44 cents a minute. That's their best price for people who commit to tbe phone for two years and it would cost you, with the monthly fees, $4,728 a year. That's more than an entire year at San Jose State would cost, witb books. Great deal, huh? While we understand that City College needs to make money and tbat tbe vendors do provide a service, we think that students should be made aware of what they ' are getting into by a possibly disinterested party. Perhaps vendors which have any payment schedules attached to tbeir wares should come with a warning label, in tbe same way that tbe armed services people do.

Here it comes, once again. February 14th, Valentine's Day, is upon us. Not that I hate V-Day, but I have to admit, it's not one of my favorite holidays. The history of Valentine's Day is not widely known, unlike Christmas or Th a nksgiving, where children are taught from an early age what these holidays are truly about. Even finding a true answer to the meaning of Valentine's Day is difficult. The real Valentine was a priest in tbe third century who defied a ban on marriages during wartime. He continued to perfo rm marriages against the will of tbe reigning king, because he believed !bat marriage was tbe ultimate celebration of true love. Cupid is thought of as tbe official spokes-cherub for the holiday, tbe Santa of February perhaps. He was, in fact, tbe god of love, perhaps the pe rfec t representative for such a holiday. Today, however, Valentine's Day is very little like it was intended to be. It was intended to be a day for lovers to celebrate tbeir love for one another, a day to share with the people they love. Instead, it seems like it's become more of a day for a woman to prod tbeir significant oilier into spending money on flowers, candy, expensive presents, and fancy dinners. I have no significant other. Does this mean that I don't qualify

for Valentine's Day? Must I spend my February as just an other day wor studying, and being alone? This is what I dislike Valentine's Day. I don'tlike tbe hype lha been created around a girlfrien a boyfriend, and the need that to loom over tbe single sect society. I think that I am perfectl) without a boyfriend. Not thai I want one, but I know I don't one. The !bought of trying to up and find a person to shl holiday with seems totally at to me. What's the point in fio someone to spe nd one day when there is no love invo That defeats the purpose o holiday altogetber. So, instead, I propose Valentine's Day go back to the

All work and no play for men's bas ketball team Allison Fine

Staff Writer While most students spent their winter break with family , trying to relax, work or just plain being bored, the Men's basketball team didn't have the chance to relax or bang out during the entire month. Friday's loss to Foothill College brought an end to the first half of conference play. It was a thrilling game with a game winning three-point shot by Foothill with only four seconds left before the buzzer. Sophomore point guard, and team co-captain, Rash ad Jones had 13 points, six rebounds and six assists in the effort. Co-captain Jens Jensen, led the team in scoring with 19 points. Freshman guard Tayo Akinsete added 12 points and nine rebounds and fres hm a n ce nter B ryan Stephens had 10 poi nts and eight rebounds. "Friday's game was a good one," Jones said. "We were down by at least I 0 points during one point but we played hard and came back. The buzzer shot was a lucky

one." Practice was daily and games went on through the entire break. December included wins against San Francisco City College and College of Alameda. Between Christmas and New Years the Jags won a critical tournament at Chabot College by beating Canada College 62-52 in the fi nal. This win was a big being that Canada was the team that the Jags couldn ' t defeat in the San Jose City home tournament finals early in December. Rashad Jones received the Chabot tournament MVP award. J e ns Jens e n and Bryan Stephens both received all tournament honors. On December 15, the Jags began the conference season with a 75-62 wi n against Ohlone. "Right now, we sti ll have a chance to at least tie fo r first," said head coach Percy Carr. "We're really just looking for a place in the playoffs." "We know we'll have one, right now, we' re trying to figure out where."

"We'll be ok," said Jones . " We just need to keep our focus and play hard. " Just how hard the Jags are going to play will be seen Friday as they begin the second half of conference play against Ohlone College at 7 p.m . Expectations are high for the Jags, and Friday will help determine what level of play needed to win .

Sometimes heroes aren' talways found standing in the winner's circle. The women of Gavilan College women ' s basketball team proved that last night. Although the tide was already against them even before the game, with the loss of their star player and with their roster down to the bare minimum of five players, the team showed poise and sportsmanship by playing hard. Playing hard even against the giants of San Jose City College' s team. And giants they were, compared to the brave small soldiers of Gavilan . City College's team size stood over Gavilan, looking like a team of centers playing against a team of point guards. City College's shortest player, StephanieShiraki, 5' 3", seemed to be evenly sized with any of the Gavilan's players. Coming into the game, the Lady Jags were a perfect 8-0 in Coast Conference play and looked to be resembling the same championship squad of last year' s team. Immediately out of the gate the Lady Jags rolled onto a57-16 halftime score. In the second half City College, forced turnovers on the first two Gavilan possessions. While upping their record to 90 in the conference, the Lady Jags

also set school record for most points in a game with 114, three better than the Il l point record set around this time last year. "You know it's bad when you break the record," said guard Gina Paradiso. "I have to give them credit," said head coach Terri Oberg. 'They had no subs, lost their best player and still played hard." Kristie Reed led City College's balanced scoring attack with 24 points. With five more games to play against conference team s, the Ladies Jags will now begin focusing on post-season play. "I think we're ready (for the playoffs) ," said guard Cortney Keegan , who had 23 points. "Once we're in the playoffs we' re gonna face tougher teams." Teams like Ventura College, City College's newest rivalry. With scorn of losing the state finals to the Lady Jags,Ventura captured a victory early in the season.
