Periodical thefts plague librarians Thief escapes capture By Michelle Pollino Staff Writer The theft and mutilation of periodicals is a chronic affliction that's getting worse for the Palomar College Library, according to Public Services Librarian Tamara Weintraub. Last Thursday, a person leaving the library, was caught with articles ripped out of nine magazines. As the librarians discussed what should be done with that person, they ran out of the library with the stolen articles. "I don't think (thieves) realize that this theft is costing everyone money, as well as preventing someone else access to those articles," said Weintraub. Even though the library institutes an alarm system upon entering and exiting, not all pages in magazines are marked. Libraries pay 50 to 500 percent more for scholarly journals, like the Journal of American Medicine. When these journals are darnaged or stolen it costs twice as much to replace them. Sometimes these periodicals are so old they can't be replaced. "It not only costs money to replace these articles and magazines, it costs valuable staff time," says Library Media Technician Bonnie Corzine. "The reason we're not open on Sunday and only open from 9 a.m. to 1 p.m. on Saturday is because we don't have money to pay for staffing on those days." Palomar's library has the third largest academic periodicals collection in San Diego County. Palomar also has one of the cheapest photocopying rates at 10 cents a copy, while the others charge up to 25 cents. "We provide change when alot of otherlibraries don't. We go out of our way to make sure students get what they need," adds Corzine. Monetary losses are not the only results of
• Page 2 - Palomar offers library technology classes. periodical thefts. "Information is being stolen. It is really sad when a student has a term paper due and can't get the necessary information because someone has ripped out an article they need," says Weintraub. "I feel so helpless when I have to tell someone we don't have the article they want, and that it will take 10 days for a replacement" One instructor brought in his own copies of magazines for his students to use. Articles that contained needed information were ripped out, of the professor's periodicals as well. "It not only affects the people presently using the library, it affects the users in years to come," adds Weintraub. This problem of periodical mutilation is not a new one. It is common to all types of libraries. One study showed students' perception on mutilation to be rather lackadaisical. The great majority who were surveyed were unconcerned about getting caught. "The attitude of the students getting caught is very defensive. One student even wanted the pages back," says Weintraub. In January of 1989, the library stopped checking out magazines. "We were losing too much money and information. We are still trying to assess the damage," noted Weintraub. Because of this increase in damages, the library may start inflicting stiffer penalties. "The worst possible scenario will be sending people who are caught to see the director of student activities, which might lead to expulsion," said Weintraub. "We don't want to be lax, but we do want to be fair."
Complaint sounded on campus noise levels By Kathleen Nelson Contributing Writer Complaints from a Palomar student have led the Associated Student Government to propose specific decibel levels for live and taped music played outside class on campus grounds. At the ASG Oct. 18 meeting, student Sherrie Edwards described the problem encountered in her classes during Rocktoberfest, an ASG fundraiser. "Sitting in the classroom the
volume of the music is such that I can hear it in class. It interferes with listening to the teacher," said Edwards, who is asking for a specific volume level to be set for bands. "If a volume is agreed on, it should be a measurable volume where people can say 'Yes, this is too high,' or 'This is too low.' " ASG President John Weber said Edwards, "brought to the government a legitimate complaint. It's our responsibility to

Librarian Bonnie Corzine exam ens destroyed periodicals from the Library's collection. Library officials say they are 'helpless' in combating the theft and mutilation of periodicals.
Student pay raise proposed By Michelle Van Aalst Staff Writer Students that work on campus may be in for a pay raise, pending the decision at the President's Advisory Council meeting today. Starting pay for student workers is currently $4.25 an hour but if the proposed pay increase goes through, salaries will go up to $5.00 an hour. The raise was proposed by school officials who say there is a need for Palomar Campus to compete with off-campus jobs. Ronald Jordan, director of Placement Services, said that Palomar College cannot rival other job offers off campus if
the school doesn't have comparable wages. "Students can read the job offers posted in the student placement office and see the difference in wages," says Jordan. Concerns about whether certain departments will have to cut back on the hours some students work to compensate for the budget increase were voiced at the Faculty Senate meeting on Oct. 16. Candice Francis, associate professor of Life Science, said some departments rely greatly on student help and a cut back on the hours may affect a number of departments. However, according to Dean of Student Support Programs, Kent
Backart, there is enough money in the budget so that student's hours will not be cut. "I don't see any reason why the hours should be cut The money is there,"Backart said. "We've had trouble filling jobs (due to higher pay elsewhere) so the money that could have been spent this semester hasn't been spent. It has accumulated so we have more money for the second semester than we thought we had." The proposal calls for an 11.5 percent increase for the entire school year. If the budget proposal goes through, the raise will go into affect by Jan. 1.

Noise (continued from page 1) look into this." Weber said that contracts signed with live bands do include controls on volume, but no specific level has ever been set. According to Senator Mike Koch, Rocktoberfest also created some friction between the ASG and the bands. Koch said that a warning was given to one of the bands to lower its volume. The band's performance was stopped when it didn't comply. Although Edwards complained that music in the cafeteria was also troubling her, Vice president Jill Kaeser responded, "I thoroughly agree that a (volume) level should
be established. As for people in the Student Union, that is a different area. I think it's separate." Campus radio station Neo-99 Program Director Kevin Fry responded to the complaints by saying, "I don't believe students or teachers should be disrupted or should go through that. "The big promotion today definitely affected students in the classroom," said Fry referring to Rocktoberfest. "I feel concerts during the day, while students are in class, are a problem if held outside because rock, in order to be heard clearly, has to be played loudly."

Condom campaign promotes awareness By Amy Alexander Staff Writer Signs around campus advertising condoms for sale at Student Health Services, have become more prevalent than the no smoking, food or drink signs in class rooms. Daily, students are bombarded by slogans such as SAVE YOUR LIFE! Use condoms, THINK BEFORE ... Use condoms. or AIDS, YOU CAN'T LIVE WITH IT. Use condoms. At 12 fora dollar, "That's the bestbuyyou'regoing to get anywhere in town," says R.N. Karen Petterson. Pettersen was recently featured at an AIDS awareness update sponsored by the Palomar College student health services which was held Oct. 23 through 26. Pettersen, a nurse and AIDS educator, discussed the seriousness and the consequences of the disease. "Public education is our only hope," said Pettersen. "Current thought is that by the time we get a handle on this thing one-third of the world's population will be destroyed. There will probably never be a cure for AIDS, the hope is to find a vaccine." According to statistics from the Center for Disease Control, since AIDS was first identified in 1981 there have been 109,167 cases of the disease. Out of that
Library offers unique program By Michelle Pollino Staff Writer There is only one place in San Diego County that people can prep~e for a career in library technology. That place is Palomar College. "People come from as far away asCuyamacaandJamultoenterour program," says Library Director Dan Amsan. Palomar's program involves the completion of 35-37 units, with a minimum grade of 'C' in each. With a certificate in library technology a student may choose among many careers. "Schools, public libraries, as well as private(such as law, medical, or private industry) libraries are always looking for well-qualified people," adds Amsan. With the A.A. degree or certificate, students may transfer to a four-year school and continue on with their education, specializing in areas such as reference, literature of the humanities or children's books. One of the part-time staff members at Palomar, Carol Naegele, is a children's librarian in Oceanside. "Helping children in the library is very essential," says Naegele. "But

number, children with the disease account for 1,859 cases .. California is number two in the United States for total number of AIDS cases, with 21,744. In San Diego County alone there have been 1,472 reported cases. These statistics only reflect people who have what Pettersen calls "full- blown AIDS." They do not take into consideration the individuals who have the infection or are silent carriers. Said Pettersen, "It is estimated that for every one AIDS case there may be as many as 50 to 100 silent carriers." She said that within two years, AIDS will become so prevalent that everyone will know at least one person with the disease. Pettersen outlined the three methods of transmission of AIDS; sexual contact, blood and blood products and prenatal transmission. She emphasized that it cannot be transmitted through casual contact. "You can't get it from door knobs, toilet seats, public phones, mosquitos, or pools and jacuzzis. It is your deliberate actions that put you at risk of becoming infected," she said. Pettersen explained that it is assumed that condoms are 90 percent effective at preventing sexually transmitted diseases and said that, "they are the only thing that's available on the market at this time." She continued, "Total abstinence is certainly going to protect you but, that doesn't fit into most people's lifestyles."
it's really fun to work with people above knee-level." Naegele teaches the children's literature class for the certificate program. The salary range for library technicians ranges from $1200 to $2500 a month, depending on whether you work in public or private libraries. There are three $1500 scholarship awards available for students
working toward a certificate in library technology. The award may be granted for up to three academic years, providing the student shows continued progress in that field. There is also a $2000 award to a graduate of Palomar's program who is accepted into a program leading to a Master's Degree in Library Science.

Opin I On
The Telescope 3
Tuesday, November 7, 1989
ACLU object of scathing editorial The American Civil Liberties Union suffered a scathing assault in an article by Ms. Tracy Wilson in the Telescope (Oct. 6, 1989). The article's numerous errors deserve a clarifying response. 1. The ACLU, once a positive organization, has degenerated into a "dangerous lobby group" now stumbling in "fanatica/liberalism." Ms. Wilson contradicts this argument in hernext sentence: "Presently, the ACLU' s lawyers defend Nazis and the Ku Klux Klan", hardly groups one would expect fanatical liberals to defend. Indeed, in 1977 the ACLU defended the right of neo-Nazis to march in predominantly Jewish Skokie, Illinois. They did this because they realized that the very essence of the First Amendment is to protect all expression, including that which is most detested. Really, Ms. Wilson, would fanatical liberals file defense briefs on behalf of Oliver North and former Reagan aide Lyn Nofziger or work with conservatives in opposing restrictions on tobacco and alcohol advertising as the ACLU has done? 2. The good early ACLU (1920-1955) has evolved into the bad ACLU with "misguided objectives and destructive goals." A look at the record reveals that the goals haven't changed. What changes is our perspective when we get closer to the action. Examples of good earlier work include: the Scopes case (1925), in which the ACLU challenged the power of the state to write Genesis into the law; the Ulysses case (1933), in which the ACLU challenged the censorship of James Joyce's work; the Korematsu case, in which the ACLU challenged the wartime internment of Japanese-Americans; the Hague v. CIO case, defending worker's rights to organize; and Brown v. Board of Education (1954), challenging school segregation. These early efforts resulted in values that are firmly established now in America. But when these cases were being heard many thought they reflected a misguided left-wing agenda. In Scopes, the ACLU was accused of trying to destroy religion. In Ulysses, they were accused of promoting obscenity. In the labor case, the ACLU was accused of a left-wing bias. In Korematsu, the ACLU was accused of disloyalty. The Brown case produced hate mail. If Ms. Wilson had looked carefully at the ACLU's more recent priorities she would see the old (good) causes heavily represented. In the 1980s the ACLU challenged creationism laws in Arkansas and Louisiana. Throughout the 1980s the ACLU opposed waves of censorship as they had in Ulysses. The defense of free speech during the past 30 years for civil rights demonstrators, anti-war demonstrators, neoNazis, the Klan, anti-abortion demonstrators, and gay rights demonstrators has been a core ACLU activity built on the principle established in the 1920s. Since the Brown case the ACLU has greatly expanded its efforts to eliminate racial discrimination in education, employment, housing and voting. 3. The ACLU wants to "end all presence of religion in the U.S." by removing mention of God on currency or in the Pledge of Allegiance. While the ACLU defends the separation of church and state, the removal of the deity's name from our legal tender has never been a priority. 4. The ACLU defends the use of children for pornography. Contrary to the impression left by Ms. Wilson the ACLU favors penalties against those who exploit children to make pornography but believe laws prohibiting the sale of sexually explicit materials violate the First Amendment. Freedom is tricky stuff. There is a difference between liberty itself and the expression of liberty. Now, what relevance might civil liberty issues have for Palomar students? Have you ever watched television or listened to music? Recently certain religious groups have decided that the citizens can't be trusted to decide for themselves what to watch and hear. These selfproclaimed guardians of the public morality are pressuring businesses to stop sponsoring shows such as Married with Children. Pausing from painting each other's noses blue, these groups have chosen certain heavy metal and rap groups for censorship. Tactics include: album warning stickers denying sale to minors; picketing record stores and pressuring city officials to harass live concerts. The ACLU makes no judgement about the merits of these shows or sounds just as it doesn't decide on the merits of sexually explicit material or Nazi propaganda. The ACL U believes democracy is best served when the marketplace of ideas is accessible to all. It boils down to a fundamental principle: individuals themselves are the best judges of what they should read, see or hear. If someone desired a quick, dramatic lesson on the essentiality of a group like the ACLU, they need look no farther than the ecstatic faces of the East Germans who fled their homeland in recent weeks. Their emotion were not caused by the promise of economic freedom. They already enjoyed the greatest prosperity within the eastern bloc. The freedom they hungered for were those same civil liberties guaranteed us in the Bill of Rights and most ably defended these past 70 years by the American Civil Liberties Union.

CONCERNS VOICED OVER URBANIZATION
Oasis is in danger of being a mirage
G u est
As every square inch of open :;pace around Palomar College is rapidly converted into high density housing tracts, will our campus remain a verdant botanical island within this rising sea of urban sprawl? Eighteen years ago, a former student, Brian Hawthorne, approached me with the idea of establishing a campus arboretum at Palomar College.

I Soviets paint cultural portrait By Wendy Williams Entertainment Editor
Georgian culture wows San Diego By Wendy Williams Entertainment Editor The Soviet Republic of Georgia has contributed many artistic and cultural works to the San Diego Soviet Arts Festival. "Art and culture from the Soviet Republic of Georgia will be the centerpiece of the festival," said San Diego Mayor Maureen O'Conner, a principal player in bringing the festival here. Georgia is one of 15 republics in the Soviet Union that is unique because it has retained its own diverse art and culture, even after invasions from many different countries. In 337 A.D., Georgia became one of the first countries to adopt Christianity as its official religion. Because of this, religion plays an important part in the art and culture of the Georgian people. "Masterworks in Metal," an exhibit located at the B Street Pier, features religious icons of gold, silver and precious stones. This is the first time these icons have ever been seen in the United States. Also among the rich Georgian traditions is the music. Georgia
became one of the first countries to use polyphonic sound, or the use of more than one melody. They developed this style for use in religious services. The Georgian State Singing and Dancing Ensemble's main mission has been to keep alive the traditions of music and dance that have sustained the nation. "A nation which has such beautiful folk songs and choreography is a happy nation," said George Balanchine, world famous choreographer, after he heard the Georgian Ensemble at Carnegie Hall. Another age-old Georgian art being showcased at the festival is the Tbilisi State Marionette Theatre. Rezo Gabriadze and his troupe have performed their puppetry throughout the world. A unique look into life in the Soviet Union can be found in the Georgian film festival. Several Georgian directors and film critic Natia Amirejibi will be present to discuss the films, along with American film directors. Georgian children also are participating in this unique festival.
The brochure for the poster art exhibit says "Let's Expose the Soviets for What They Really Are .... People." And that seems to be the aim of the San Diego Arts Festival: Treasures of the Soviet Union which runs for three weeks, Oct. 21 through Nov. 11. After years of planning, San Diego finally is hosting the first-of-its-kind arts festival, featuring drama, dance, folk art, film and culinary delights from the USSR. The festival began Saturday night, Oct. 21 with the Russian opera "Boris Gudonov" and continued on "Super Powers Sunday," Oct. 22 with opening ceremonies and free exhibitions of the art and culture to be shown during the three-week event. Over 60,000 people crowded into Balboa Park to see the famed Faberge eggs, the Georgian dance and singing ensemble and to taste Russian food prepared by six Georgian chefs. Even the inclement weather didn't seem to dampen anticipation as the opening ceremonies began to the strains of"We Are the World." A troupe of Georgian child dancers wowed the packed Organ Pavilion with their gravity-defying leaps and knife-play.
The current world champion women's chess player from the USSR, Maya Chiburdanidze took on 40 challengers at the same time. Six Georgian chefs whipped up such delicacies as chicken Kiev, goose breast with Kasha and Ajap Sandali Ratatouille for $2 a taste. Crowds lined up for a look at the famous Faberge eggs, donated for this event from the Kremlin Armory Museum, the FORBES magazine galleries, H. M. Queen Elizabeth II of England and museums and private collections. The Starlight Bowl was standing room only as the Georgian State Singing and Dancing Ensemble took the stage. They performed traditional polyphonic songs and dances with incredible leaps and swordplay. The appreciative San Diego crowd gave them a standing ovation which was recieved with warm smiles and waves. Many local multicultural dance groups also peformed, as much to the delight of the visiting Soviets as for the locals themselves. Not even the group of protestors, quietly walking through the park in chains and holding placards of protest against the Soviet Union, seemed to phase anyone. If the opening day was any indication, this Soviet Arts Festival is destined to be a huge success.

That's right, 20 points! And, at the same time, increase your verbal scores on important examinations such as SAT, GRE, GMAT, CPA, BAR, etc. How is this educational phenomenon possible? One point has become painfully clear: accepted methods of learning have not kept pace with the need for knowledge. Consider the following: less than 150 years ago it took two to three months to cross the continent by covered wagon. Now, a supersonic jet requires two to three hours to cover the same distance- more than 1000 times faster. Speed of communication has increased at an even greater rate. How do you learn fast enough to keep up?
Re-Defining The Learning Process Kaypro Corporation has developed a powerful self-improvement program called the VIP. Through a unique system of multi-sensory instruction, the VIP will increase your brain power 10 to 100 times. This valuable program not only increases IQ and exam scores, it will make you a new person. You will become more aware of the world around you and how to use your abilities to make the most of any situation.
VIP- The Most Important Program Available The evolution of the computer has been the driving force behind this decade's technological growth. Today, most every office uses some type of computer program for word processing, spreadsheet analysis, database management, etc. Unfortunately, these sophisticated programs are puzzling to a person who lacks the necessary verbal IQ. On the other hand, those with higher IQ scores quickly comprehend these complex programs and get ahead in their jobs.

Women's team volley for playoffs By Cris Fraser Staff Writer Even after a defeat at the hands of Southwestern College on Oct. 24, which knocked them out of second place, the Palomar women's volleyball team is still in the playoff hunt. "We had a hard time," admits Coach Teri Me Farland. "Southwestern put on too much pressure and had a good offense. Their serves were tough." Although Palomar's "kill leader," and outside hitter Michelle Pledger had 10 kills,
the Comets lost to Southwestern 415, 10-15, 12-15. Pledger states "We didn't play bad; they just played better." McFarland is not discouraged about this loss since "the team is giving 100 percent and they're playing great." According to Me Farland, the Comets have better defense, serving, and run the middle better as compared to last year's team. ''I'm very impressed with the team," says Me Farland. "Everyone has improved so much." Last year, the Comets won against Mesa and played in the
Regional Finals. This year, the team must once again duel it out with Mesa in order to play in the Regionals and possibly obtain second place in the league. Me Farland believes the team is "prepared both physically and mentally to do it." McFarland and the Comets close out the regular season with a match at Grossmont tomorrow, then travel to MiraCosta on Thursday before the season finale at Imperial Valley on Nov. 15. The Southern California Regional playoffs begin on Nov. 21, with the state finals on Dec. 1-2.
