Judge orders return of artifacts

By Larry Boisjolie News Editor With a ruling by aS uperior Court judge, college officials won a decisive victory Wednesday in the battle over a collection of Indian artifacts taken from Palomar by a former instructor.

Judge Raymond Zvetina ruled in a preliminary injunction hearing that the artifacts, estimated by college officials to be worth $100,000, be returned to the campus within 10

days. Zvetina also will allow former part-time instructor, Leslie Quintero, access to the artifacts on a supervised basis.

"We are very happy and relieved about the judge's decision," said Palomar Superintendent/President Dr. George Boggs. "It's too bad we had to spend money to get them back."

The injunction "ruling does not settle the issue of where the artifacts will ultimately rest, only where they will be held during a civil law-

suit between Palomar's Governing Board, Quintero and landowner Donald Sullins. The outcome of the litigation will determine where the artifacts will be held for scientific study.

But Sharon Seay, the attorney representing the college in the suit, said she thinks the decision is a good indicator of the case's final outcome.

"The decision shows the college has been vindicated," said Seay.

"One factor in the preliminary in-

junction decision is whether or not the (plaintiff) will prevail."

people." He went on to say that the community college serves "two masters: the community and the students."

He stated that he "grew up in a very genteel area of the South- the deep south of Chicago" and that he avoided getting into trouble by being involved with the Boy Scouts. Board member Robert Dougherty commented that maybe Roseen's concern of transmitting ethical values to the next generation is borne from his involvement with the Boy Scouts.

Dougherty also asked Roseen if he thinks there is weakness in the education system. Roseen responded that he is unaware of any at Palomar but stated weakness exists in the California school system, primarily at the secondary level. He said that he is puzzled by the decline because California was one of the vanguard states during the time he was pursuing his doctoral work, which was during the 1950s.

Roseen said that he meets a large number of young people and he is impressed by what he calls their lack of communication skills, to the point where "they are almost inarticulate."

Last dance has been called at the After Dark nightclub. Escondido City Council members voted to revoke the club's conditional use permit on Jan. 24 after a longfought battle to save the business by owner Stony Mitich.

Mitich has charged that the city and Palomar College collaborated together to push the club out of the Mission Village shopping plaza, the site of Palomar's new Escondido satellite campus.

"It looks like the city and Palomar were trying tocutmeout," said Mitich. "I promoted the place for six years and I've lost a lot. After Dark was the number-one club that started it all. It was a big loss to my family and my community."

The decision was based on alleged occurrences of serious problems with security and violence at the establishment.

Mitich said that June Rady, assistant director of the Escondido campus and Chairwoman of the Escondido Planning Commission, used her influence to get After Dark out of the shopping center. He says that Rady had a conflict of interest with the case, and should have abstained from hearing it.

The Escondido Police Department initially made the request to have the conditional use permit revoked. A conditional use permit is a set of guidelines that a business must follow in order to operate in the community.

That request is first reviewed by the Planning Commission, which

"Just follow the directions on how to get there and you'll run right into it." Danny Patrick, a new student at Palomar, followed this advice and ended up running into the college's sign at the main entrance. Patrick hangs his head in astonishment as the sign sustained no damage; his car received a badly-damaged front end. The accident occurred on Jan. 31 around 4 p.m. when Patrick attempted to make a fast left turn into the campus to complete his late registration. Patrick suspects that the gas pedal stuck to the floor, sending the car straight in to the sign. No one was injured in the incident.

Ex-pilot joins Palomar Board

By Mark Hopkins Editor-in-Chief Robert E. Roseen, a retired Air Force colonel and 12-yearresidentofFallbrook, has been appointed and sworn-in as a trustee to the Palomar Community College District Board.

Roseen, 59, was selected from a field of eight other finalist on Jan. 11; a total of 27 people applied for the position left vacant by the Dec. 31 resignation ofRalph Forquera. Forquera, who Robert Roseen was serving as executive director of the San Diego New Board Trustee American Indian Health Center, left to fill a similar position with the Seattle Urban Indian Health Board.

Roseen said during his interview on Jan. 11 that, "the most important function of a community college is to transfer our beliefs, attitudes, and morals to young

Escondido center opens

By Roman Koenig Feature Editor Palomar College's new Escondido Satellite Center opened to over 2,000 students on Jan. 22., helping to alleviate overcrowded conditions here at the main campus.

Palomar Superintendent/ President Dr. George Boggs regards the opening as "probably the boldest thing (the college) has ever done. We are involved in the most active year in the college's history."

According to the center's Assistant Director, June Rady, the new satellite center is also the first step in bringing college education to the communities it serves.

"It was really the decision of the board to take our community college out into the community for better service to the students," she said. "We are bulging at the seems at there (in San Marcos)."

Already, Palomar's San Marcos enrollment exceeds 23,000. The Escondido center is handling 2,384 students.

"It is relieving some of the congestion here at the main campus," confirmed Boggs.

He pointed out that there were fewer room conflicts at the

Club (continued from page 1) makes a recommendation. However, that decision is not official. It is used as a recommendation that the Escondido City Council takes into consideration when making an official decision whether to revoke a permit or not. Public hearings are held before the decision is made.

"I think June Rady should have announced her position with the college before she heard the case," Mitich said.

Rady says, however, she checked with the Assistant City Attorney, Jeffrey Epp, to see if she legally had a conflict of interest.

"I can clearly understand him questioning a conflict of interest," said Rady. "That was my immediate response, 'Do I have a conflict of interest?'

"I immediately called the assistant city attorney and asked him to rule on that, because, clear! y, if he said I had a conflict of interest I would have abstained; that meaning you do not discuss or participate in any way. I was prepared to do that."

According to Rady, Epp based his finding on the Political Reform Act, which is a state law that "controls whether an official abstains or not," according to Epp. The PRA stipulates that no political official shall participate in a hearing if he or she has a financial, or material, interest in the case.

"Will it affect their business?

Will it affect their source of income? In June's case, it involved a source of income," Epp continued.

"She represented to me that her

income (with the college) would neither increase or decrease. She could let them stay or kick them out and her income would stay the same.

"The rules are very clear and it was very clear to me that she did not have a conflict of interest."

With that ruling, Rady and the other commissioners heard the case on Nov. 28, and found that the permit should be revoked.

The majority of problems cited by the police involved minors with alchohol, however, a few of the incidents were violent in nature.

These were primarily fights outside the club, although a drive by shooting and an assault incident involving a weapon also occured. Mitich feels that violence and illicit drinking outside the doors of After Dark are not the club's respopnsibility.

Other problems at the club included overcrowding and staying open beyond the 1:30 a.m. closing time originally agreed upon in the permit. Mitich said he was never shown proof on the charges of overcrowding.

Mitich charges that the police started watching the club more when Palomar had made plans to open its campus in the same center and when the plaza's current owner, Phoenix Mutual, took over operation of the buildings in a foreclosure from a company called Cal American.

Rady says the she and the college are victims of circumstance.

'T m being shifted into this (position to) coordinate this campus, and

all of a sudden, in capacity as chair of the Planning Commission, I'm going to be asked to hear the possible revocation of a business license," said Rady. "It just so happened it all happened at the same time."

"I clearly did not have any knowledge of the severity of the incidents, with one exception, and that was (the drive-by shooting)," continued Rady. That was the first inkling she had that something was wrong. "(It) obviously would make anyone wonder what was going on (down there)."

Mitich said that this was not the case," Are you trying to tell me that June Rady didn't know that After Dark was there? How can a person in that k,ind of position not know?"

Altogether, the Commission found that two conditions of the permit had been violated. They found that the business was detrimental to public health, safety, and welfare and was a nuisance. They also felt that conditions of the permit had been violated (i.e. operating beyond capacity and letting underage people in to the club).

The police report stated that there had been many instances where teenagers under the age of 17 were being admitted to the club. After Dark'sagelimitwas 17.

Mitich said that teens, oftentimes, used fake identification to get into the club.

"Now is a kid going to tell the police or parents that they're using a fake I.D.? We check everybody," saidMitich. "Wedon'twantyoung

ones in there because if anything happens to somebody young, we get a lawsuit. We can't afford that."

According to Mitich, as a result of the bad publicity the Planning Commission case received, substantial business was lost. Mitich closed the club on Jan. 1 of this year.

"The damage has been done beyond repair," he commented. "I went from capacity crowds to almost nothing." Mitich is bitter that the club that started a major corporation, After Dark Entertainment, which includes two other night clubs, San Diego After Dark and Nightown in San Marcos, and a mobile music unit playing music for high schools for free, is gone forever.

Rady feels that this conflict could

have been prevented, and said that she tried contacting Mitich about the college's coming presence in the center.

"It's quite interesting that in September I placed several calls trying to reach Mr. Mitich," explained Rady. "My purpose, at that time, was to talk to him about Palomar College's plans, what we were going to be doing here and how best we could work together. He never . returned my calls."

Mitich also charges that the city had voted to revoke the permit before he had the chance to make his final case.

He obtained a copy of the planning commission resolution the day of the city council's public hearing

Open (continued from page 1) beginning of the semester here at the San Marcos campus with the center's opening.

"These are temporary facilities," said Rady of the center's location in Mission Village plaza. There are currently 12 classrooms set up in store fronts. The college's permanent location will be in the former site of the Ardan department store, which is in the same complex. That building will hold 27 classrooms and offices. Rady said that Palomar saw the need to open the center as soon as possible.

According to Guy, the store front rooms were practically done at the last minute because Palomar initially planned to open in the Ardan site this spring.

Rady says she "can't say enough" for the work Cress Construction Co. did on the temporary facility. "We sat down with what I had and we carved out this design."

Preparation of the Ardan building for Palomar will occur as soon as architectural plans are approved by the State of California and a lease is agreed upon with the center's owner.

"We had 110 classes (to offer). We thought we had the demand. We wanted to open in Spring, so we went ahead and made the decision to rent those vacant store fronts and carve out classrooms," she explained.

"We had to start from scratch," said Bryant Guy, director of contracts. "It's a miracle we got it done."

Guy added that the college is also dealing with two different landlords. Phoenix Mutual is handling the lease of the temporary facilities, while Strata Equity is handling the permanent lease for the former Ardan site.

Funds unavailable for English class crunch

By Traci Rossman Staff Writer

Despite the overwhelming demand for English classes, Palomar's English department will not be able to offer English and writing skills to·all of the students that need them.

According to Stephen McDonald, chairperson of the English Department, additional state money is unavailable to fund the new English instructors required to accomodate approximately 700 students on waiting lists for English courses. Furthermore, there are no funds available for the necessary classrooms.

Prospective English students, like Jordan Bloom, have tried, unsuccessfully, to complete their required English courses. Bloom requested English 1 on his mail-in registration for Fall 1989 and Spring 1990, but the class was not available to him either semester. In trying to crash several classes, he found that the only open class this semester conflicted with his work schedule.

"I took English 102 a year ago, and the longer I have to wait to take English 1, the more difficult it will be," says Bloom.

A major obstruction to getting more English classes, says McDonald, is the fact that each of

the most popular writing classes, English 1, 21, 101, and 102 holds only 22 students (except for English 101, which holds 25). Dean of Humanities, Gene Jackson, explains that because of the Adjusted Daily Attendance system (a funding formula used .for grades K-12 and community colleges, based on the number of students who attend classes daily), the school recieves more monetary support for a class of 40 students than a class of 22.

As a result, McDonald says, instituting new classes in subjects which can hold more students, and thus recieve more state funding, often takes precedence over instituting new English classes.

Jackson believes that the state needs to allow more support for classes that require more individual instruction. He is concerned that more than half of all entering students do not have college-level English skills and therefore must take one-to-three remedial English courses. These students, says Jackson, drain the pool of money available for English instruction, which in tum, creates a short-fall of classes.

For McDonald, the key factor is the need to replace part-time instructors with full-time instructors.

"Full-time instructors have better communication and participation with the college and can better

aid their students," says McDonald.

Jackson notes that part-time staff are not able to hold office hours for students who need extra help. As of fall1989, 51 percent of the English courses were taught by part-time instructors, whereas this spring 46 percent are staffed part-time.

McDonald explains that the English Department is complying with an assembly bill which mandates that the college reduce the number of courses staffed by parttime instructors to 25 percent of all courses. To help meet this, the state has provided funding for Palomar to hire two new full-time instruc(see ENGLISH- page 9)

Assault prompts safety warning

By Rich Donovan Staff Writer

An assault of a Palomar College student last month has prompted a warning by Campus Patrol Supervisor Boyd Mahan: "Students should be aware and alert."

On Jan. 29 at about 8 p.m. a woman in her mid-20s, Pamela Ohrazda, left class and headed for her car. As she climbed the stairs between student parking lots 8 and 9, a man jumped at her from out of the bushes. Ohrazda said she was frightened, but warned him not to get any closer. The man said nothing to Ohrazda but instead followed her until she drove away. Ohrazda was unavailable for comment.

"This serves as a good example to all students, especially females, to be aware of what is going on around them. With all the new homes going in there will be more

traffic, increasing the number of assaults," said Mahan.

Mahan also stresses the importance of safety in numbers."It is best to find a friend in class to walk out to your car."

The Campus Patrol offers escorts around campus, but at night there are only four patrolmen on duty.

Mahan says that, "If possible, find someone you know from classes to escort you considering the lack of on duty officers."

Mahan suggests student should have their keys ready before they approach their cars. This avoids fumbling of belongings to find them and allows one to get in one's car quickly. Once in the car the backseat should be checked for someone, just in case.

Mahan said, "School is the perfect place for exhibitors and assaults because of the all of the females located in one area."

Bids out for transit center

Board

By Rikki Org Staff Writer

He dismissed the suggestion that the problem really has to do with the generation-gap between him and the students he meets. He cited an example of how his daughter, Lisa, who received credit for work experience. He said that aside from "learning how to handle a cash register and a meat slicer" that he "really does not see how it has contributed to her education."

Board members Barbara Hughes and Dougherty agreed. Dougherty added that during the time he was a teacher he was amazed at the number of students who could not read, write, or perform sixth-grade level mathematics.

Hughes said she picked Roseen because he has qualities she thinks will be good for the Board. Hughes said, "He is somebody with a sense of humor and he is someone who is honest and straight-forward and is not someone who you would have to second guess as to what he thinks. I like that-I'm not good at what people are thinking about."

• Will include seven bus stalls, restrooms, and water fountains • *The front entrance, now located at the Palomar sign, will be moved east to allow easier

Roseen served 21 years in the Air Force as a fighter pilot, and then for two more years when he was "still bold but too old" to be a fighter pilot as head of avionics and electronics training, and as base commander of Albrook Air Force Base, which is located in the Panama Canal Zone.

He earned a bachelor's degree from the University of New Mexico, a master's degree in educationaladministration from the University of Vermont, and has completed all but his thesis for a doctorate of philosophy degree in higher education from the University of Minnesota.

Roseen will become a voting member of the Board on Jan. 13; state law requires the Governing Board to give the public 30 days to challenge such an appointment.

Barring any such challenge, Roseen will serve the remainder of Forquera's four-year term, which ends in November. Roseen said at the interview that he will be running for election.

Students of Palomar College who currently commute by bus will have something new to look forward to during the fall semester of 1990. Last week, San Diego County sent out a call for bids to contractors who wish to build the college's new transit center.

According to Mike Gregoryk, vice president of Finance and Administrative Services, "Palomar is the third party in the plan. The last we heard from the county (which is responsible for building the transit center), the North County Transit District will run it once it's built. All we do is provide the land."

The county plans to have the bids back from the possible contractors by the first week of March.

The bids will be reviewed by mid-March and a contract will be awarded by the first week of April.

According to Gregoryk, once construction begins, it will take approximately three months before the center is ready for operation.

"Once completed, the center's overall look will fit into the architecture ofthecampus," said Gregoryk.

Another part of the plan is to move Palomar's main entrance closer to the running track and the installation of a traffic light at the entrance.

The center will include: Enough stalls to house

seven buses, as well as restrooms and drinking fountains.

Currently, there are three bus routes (302, 304, 341) that service the campus. More bus lines are planned in the future in addition to a possible lightrail terminal. If the terminal is constructed, it is estimated to begin service sometime around 1995.

The cost for the transit center project is estimated at $800 thousand.

When the center is completed, it will alleviate two current problems, parking and safety for bus riders.

Students using the eastbound bus need to cross Mission Avenue to gain access to the campus. The center is hoped to provide some relief for Palomar's current parking situation.

"With the buses coming onto the campus, hopefully students will use the buses. The Transit District wants to work very closely with us to encourage students to ride the bus," Gregoryk said. "Hopefully they will when the see it's safe."

Gregoryk also hopes that students who don't currently ride the bus due to the safety factor will do so when lines come directly onto the campus.

The outlook for the new Palomar Transit Center from the city is that of as positive note.

According to Rick Gittings, city manager of San Marcos, "The city's perspective on the project is that this will enhance the transportation opportunities throughout the county."

Condom promotion increases sales

By Laura Woolfrey Staff Writer As AIDS awareness posters continue to go up around campus, so do the condom sales at Palomar's Student Health Services.

Condom sales have more than doubled since Student Health Services began their AIDS Awareness poster campaign in June of 1989.

Since then , Student Health Services has sold 290 condoms. In the 15 months prior to that, only 113 condoms were sold.

Starting in April of 1988, Student Health Services at Palomar has made available condoms at the price of 12 for $1. From that time, until June 1988, Student Health Services sold 25 condoms, seven to female students, and 18 to male students.

In July of 1988, through June 1989, they sold 88 condoms, 21 to female students and 67 to male students.

Director of Health Services, Clarice Hankins, said she feels that the poster campaign was very effective.

"Our staff thinks that the AIDS epidemic is the most critical health

issue for our students. If we can do anything to change sex practices, then we can save lives."

Besides the AIDS Awareness program, other measures have been taken to encourage the sale of condoms. Until recently, in order to buy condoms at Student Health Services, a person would be required to go into a separate room and read pamphlets giving information and care instructions concerning condoms.

Now, this is no longer necessary.

Hankins, along with the rest of the staff at Student Health Services, has decided to make the dread of buying condoms hassle-free. In order to purchase condoms now, you take a white slip of paper, (provided at the desk), and write "condoms." No questions are asked, and no names are recorded .

This process seems to be less embarrassing, and less time consuming, said Hankins.

The condoms, sold at Students Health Services, are lubricated with a large amount of nonoxynal-9, a spermicide which kills the AIDS virus. Vaginal foam, also sold at Student Health Services, is recommended with the use of condoms.

SG urges passage of easy-transfer bill

By Joanna Deruiter Staff Writer Transferring will become easier for community college students if a bill authored by State Senator Gary Hart, D-Santa Barbara, is passed in Sacramento.

Senate Bill 507 would provide the 107 California community colleges an articulation agreement with at least three of the nine public Universities of California and five California State University campuses. Also, SB 507 would require UC and CSU to gradually implement a 60-40 ratio for transfer students, 40 percent being community college transfer students.

With the agreement, community college students will be guaranteed entrance into a university if they meet grade point average requirements and complete specified course requirements. If the bill is passed, specific GP A and course requirements will be established.

Palomar Associated Student Government Senators Harry Sachs and Norman Plotkin met with 74th District Assemblyman Robert Frazee, R-Carlsbad, on January 19 and presented 525 signed postcards from Palomar students in favor of SB 507 . According to Sachs, Frazee declared that he is in favor of the bill.

"We were warmly greeted by Assemblyman Frazee and he was receptive to our lobbying efforts," said Plotkin. Sachs added, "In pre-

senting our viewpoints we stressed the need to bring the community college system out of the K-12 way of thinking and place it into the segment of higher education with the CSU and UC systems."

Sachs also mailed letters to San Diego County assembly members asking their support for the passage of the bill.

According to Sachs, "The passing of SB 507 would be highly beneficial to Palomar students. The articulation agreement would provide students with a guarantee of admission and cut out needless guesswork."

An article in the December 1989 issue of The Student Independent, California's new student government newspaper, mentioned that the University of California Students' Organization has lobbied heavily against the passage of SB 507, because of the 40 percent lower-division requirement.

However, Chris Saito, secretary for SDSU stated that he is not necessarily against SB 507. Saito thinks that it would be unfair if SDSU students applying for undergraduate transfer admission would not be accepted because of the passage of SB 507.

If SB 507 is passed, the number of overall students applying for upper-division would increase, resulting in a possible lack of space for currently enrolled CSU and UC students to continue their undergraduate education.

Palomar College Foundation President, Charles Salter (L) presents a $5,000 check to Dean of Student Support Services, Dr. Kent Backart (C) and Superintendent/President Dr. George Boggs.

2+2 equals Palomar's largest scholarship The Palomar College Foundation recently presented the college with $5,000 to finance it's first 2+2 scholarship, creating the largest single study award available to Palomar students.

The recipient of the 2+2 scholarship will receive $1,000 per year for two years while attending Palomar College and $1,500 yearly while completing two years of upper division studies at an accredited college or university. The award will be given to a highs :hool student who lives within the Palomar Community College district. Selection of the student will be based on academic excellence, dedication to a major field of study, community service contribution and financial need.

The scholarship gained its 2+2 name from the traditional split of a four-year degree between Palomar and a four-year college or university.

"Most existing Palomar scholarships fund only one year of study at a time. The '2+2' is uniquely comprehensive and enables us to support a good student all the way through a bachelor's program," said Dr. Kent Backart, Palomar's dean of student support programs.

The '2+2' scholarship concept is the brainchild of Dr. George Boggs, Palomar College president and foundation board secretary.

"I see this scholarship as a tool to attract some of the area's best high school students to Palomar," said Boggs. "We offer an excellent academic program to challenge these students. They will benefit from the fact that Palomar students who transfer to four-year universities perform as well or better than the students whc began their degrees in those same universities."

The '2+2' award is the first Palomar College

"During the past year the foundation board has analyzed how we may more directly influence the success of Palomar and its student's. We chose to sponsor this innovative scholarship because it serves the college's goals well on many levels," said Charles Salter, president of the Palomar College Foundation Board of Directors.

Salter said the '2+2' scholarship offers talented local high school students the support they deserve and, as a result, will enhance the climate of academic excellence at Palomar.

Both Salter and Boggs said that in the future they want to see the '2+2' scholarship concept expand to include one for each high school in the Palomar district and '2+2' scholarships designed to attract students to specific disciplines.

"We would like to work with Palomar's local alumni and employers to design and fund similarly comprehensive scholarships that will assist in supplying North County with the brightest graduates possible," said Salter.

Scholarship announcements for '2+2' will be soon available in all Palomar Community College District high schools. The first gift will be presented at Palomar's May 1990 awards banquet.

For more information about the '2+2' scholarship program, interested persons may call the Palomar College Foundation executive director at 744-1150, Ext. 2664.

Chinese concert pianist to take a 'Bao' at P·alomar

By Joanna Demiter Staff Writer Pianist and composer Cecilia Bao, who will be performing at Palomar on Feb.15, transcribes and transforms music from classical composers and Chinese melodies to perform an exciting variety of improvisational music.

Bao, a native of Shanghai, began playing the piano at the age of 3 and composed her first piano piece at the age of 4. Her first and lifelong teacher was her mother, Cao Ming, who introduced Bao to a wide range of music, including Bach, Mozart, Beethoven, Schubert, Chopin, Liszt, Tchaikovsky, Grieg, and many others.

During the Chinese Cultural Revolution, at the age of 16, Bao was sent away from home to a countryside farm where she worked long hours. But she never lost her passion for music, and she continued to compose pieces whenever she was inspired.

When she was young, she practiced her piano pieces on a "carton paper" keyboard, hand drawn by her father. It was during this time that she wrote numerous pieces for vocal, dancing, chorus, piano suite and band, while also conducting for the local band and chorus.

In 1978, out of thousands of applicants, Bao was one often to be admitted to the China Central Conservatory of Music, Department of Composition.

Her studies with the Chairman of the Department of Composition, Prof. Ming-Xing Du, gave her excellent academic training and sharpened her feeling toward music. At that time, improvising became a skill that was second nature to her.

She won two awards, one third prize for her performance in the 1983 Central Conservatory of Music Composition Competition while she was still a music student.

In 1986, Bao also won second prize in the Musical Competition spon-

sored by Chinese Central TV sta- came to the US to search for perfection in Beijing. At this time, how- tion, imagination, and feeling ever, she had been actively in- through performing and composvolved in various concerts for TV ing.

Bao said softly and with confistations, radio stations, and many dence, "The keyboard is my lanother organizations. guage.

I can describe my feelings Her performance at the 1986 about art, people and ideas by playcompetition was described as 'an extremely sensitive imagination in ing the piano."

Propaganda art brings victory to Palomar College display

By Michelle Pollino Entertainment Editor "Sometimes I wonder, was my grandfather looking at this same poster in his time, and what was he thinking," That thought was in the mind of Public Service Librarian Tamara Weintaub, while she and other Palomar Library staff organized the Kornhauser Display of authentic World War I posters in the library.

Located on the second floor, the posters were donated to the library

by Richard Kornhauser. The collection will be on display through Feb. 28. Books showing other WWI posters , and facts about those posters are also on display.

Kornhauser collected the posters as a small boy. He gave them to the library because he wanted to have more people appreciate them, says Weintraub.

"It's fun to see how men and women were portrayed back then," says Weintraub. According to Weintraub, she and a few other librarians

found the posters while doing some spring cleaning. "We thought they were really interesting and decided to put them up for people to view."

"The Kornhauser Collection dates back to the years 1914-1918. "Most of the posters show a basic propaganda theme to support the United States in the war," says Weintraub.

Television wasn't even heard of yet, and radio was in its early years , so posters were the major medium for advertising. "Many of the posters emphasized things like the sale of liberty bonds and food stamps to fund the war effort." adds Weintraub.

According to Weintraub, the collection shows one example of probably the last time the country had a consistent national art. The famous Uncle Sam poster was also created during this period of time.

"It's especially poignant in North County, because of the military, retired and other, that live in the area," says Weintraub.

"Looking at these posters almost transports you back," said Weintraub.

Posters from World War I, now on display in the library, show how a major media form was used and how they emphasized such things as liberty bonds, food stamps, and recruitment.

Greenpeace actions against Navy justified Guest

EDITORS NOTE: This edittorial is in response to a commentary published Dec. 14, 1989 in 'The Telescope.'

On Dec. 4, the MY Greepeace, while attempting to stop a Trident-II missile test, was rammed some 10 times during a three-hour period by two 250-foot Navy warships in international waters off Florida. The attacks put two large holes in both sides of the ship's hull and continued after the MY Greenpeace has issued a mayday call and declared herself disabled. Navy commandos also boarded two Greenpeace inflatables, piercing pontoons and slashing fuel lines.

In June, 1985 French secret service agents bombed Greepeace's Rainbow Warrior, killing photographer Fernando Pereira. Green peace was actively protesting French nuclear tests in the region.

Green peace is interested in whales, dolphins, seals, toxic wastes, pollution ... in short, in the future of the only world we've got. It makes enemies as well as friends, as we've seen. In the words of Peter Bahouth, executive director of Green peace in the United States,

For the first time in history, activists are beginning to confront powerful institutions-the bomb makers, the petrochemical industry, the planet's bureaucratic managers--as equals. To do so successfully, we need to make so much noise that they are defeated by it and can no longer hear themselves think in the same old way.

Editorial Bill Bedford I am very grateful to the brave activists of Greenpeace, who are willing to put their lives on the line to get in the way of things which are destructive to our planet I'm sure they knew they would get rammed or possibly shot on Dec. 4, even though they were in international waters. However, they had the guts to stand up tall and pround and object to what was being done.

Bill Bedford is an Associate Professor of Engineering and Physics at Palomar.

The Telescope encourages other members of faculty, as well as administrators, support staff and students, to voice their concerns on issues of the day. Correspondence may dropped off via the campus mail, at the ASB office next to the Student Union, or at The Telescope, TCB-1.

Artifacts

Club

(continued from page 1)

(continued from page 2)

Boggs said that he and Dr. Gene Jackson, dean of humanities, tried to meet with Quintero to negotiate the return of the artifacts. After two unsuccessful attempts, Boggs filed a theft report with the Sheriff's Department in December. The case was dropped last month by sheriff's Detective Alan Cutsinger.

"The case is a civil dispute," said Cutsinger. "I could find no evidence that an actual theft occurred."

Boggs said he was disappointed by the decision to drop charges.

"It's unfair to ask the college to foot the bill to get back the artifacts. We should be able to call law enforcement to get help," he said.

Boggs said the college's main concern is to protect the catalogs

and documents from mildew and flooding. He said the artifacts and documents would be stored in locked cabinets on campus to proteet them from the moisture darnage.

According to Boggs, Quintero is welcome to use the campus facilities to further her research of the artifacts. He said the college is willing to draw up a contract allowing Quintero to use the campus's resources to aid in her research.

"We have no desire to punish her," said Boggs. "If we made an offer and drew up a contract, then we would honor it."

Seay said Quintero has the right to request an oral argument to the injunction decision. Quintero could

not be reached for comment on the judge's ruling.

The missing artifacts have sparked the interest of local Indian tribes. Felix Valle, tribal chairman of the Santa Ysabel band of Mission Indians, wrote a letter to Boggs expressing his tribe's concerns over the location of the artifacts.

"It has been our understanding that any and all archaeological excavations, conducted by a learning institute, will be placed and stored at the college for further review," he wrote.

A similar letter was sent to Boggs

by James Joaquin Fletcher, tribal administrator for the Rincon Indian Reservation.

"We just want the artifacts back for students," said Boggs.

on Jan. 24. In that document, he found a page that indicated the city council had already voted to revoke the permit.

Mitich attorney Charles Nachand said that it appeared the council had voted before giving him a last chance to present his case.

City Attorney David Chapman responded to the claims of impropriety by the city. Chapman described the document in question as a normal procedure of the city.

He told the council, "It is intended for your consideration and action only after the hearing has been concluded; only afl'.!r you have given due consideration to all of the information presented to you."

tors per school year, beginning with professors Pam McDonough and Gary Zacharias.

Yet another factor is the continual growth of the student population. According to Jackson, Palomar had a 7 percent increase in enrollment this school year, and enrollment is expected to increase by at least 7.5 percent during the 1990-1991 school year.

As for adding more English courses in the near future, Jackson said, "If we were to get a 7 percent

growth in the student population next year, we would like to increase the English Department by 14 percent."

However, even with this increase, there will not be nearly enough instructors or classrooms to accommodate all the students who need them. "It will take at least five years," says Jackson, "before everyone who wants a class can get in."

McDonald adds, "We're adding new sections as fast as we can without jeopardizing the quality of instruction."

OVER 20,000 STUDENTS A population with a majority from Escondido, Vista and San Marcos with an average age of 25-years all in one condensed area ... Palomar College.

The best way to reach these students is by advertising in 'The Telescope.' With an expanded circulation, the awardwinning campus newspaper reaches thousands of people on the main campus and those at all nine satellites.

Strata Equity is currently in escrow-closing procedures for the center. Whethcrornotthecompany officially owns the center is dependent on if Palomar signs the permanent lease agreement.

The Escondido center is the first Palomar satellite to hold both day and evening classes, as compared to its other satellite locations such as Mt. Carmel High School, which can hold only evening classes.

"This is the first-ever (satellite) to do the day and evening classes other than the main campus," explained Rady.

Already,the2,384-studentpopulation is far more than the center's current store front facilities can handle. To help solve the space problem, portable trailers were brought in.

Rady's involvement with the center began in July of 1989, and was officially signed on as assistant director that August. Rady saw her qualifications for the job as assistant director in her community and college activities. ''I'm very active in Escondido and in my community, and again, (the college) didn't know what to expect," she said. "They wanted to have someone coordinate with the city, with the community, with the

Chapman finished by saying that the document would not become official unless the council voted to revoke the permit.

As a last line of defense, Nachand told the council that whatever happened outside of After Dark in the parking lot was not the responsibility of the club.

The council voted 4-0, with one abstention, to revoke After Dark's permit. Council member Ernie Cowan, an instructor at the Palomar Escondido campus, abstained from the hearing to avoid the appearance of a conflict of interest.

Chapman said that Cowan didn't have to abstain because, like Rady, there was no legal conflict of interest.

Chamber (of Commerce), and with business people.

"I have been involved with that whole arena in the particular community, Escondido, for many, many years."

Rady is not the head director of the center. An actual director has not yet been selected. She expects a selection by this coming fall. ''I'm the assistant director of the center. I am not a certificated staff member," she said. "The college will be, eventually, hiring a certificated director. I was assigned to coordinate this, get it pulled together, and then, of course, my duties would be to continue with the articulation in the community and the day-to-day operation."

She also added that the director would take over the facilitation of the instructional program. Certificated staff members include people such as teachers. Those who belong to the non-certificated staff include secretaries.

According to Rady, the closest person to being the director of Escondido at the current time is Jim Clayton, who oversees all of Palomar's satellite campuses from the main San Marcos campus. Rady oversees Escondido's every-day operations.

One thing Rady found most enlightening was the cooperation and enthusiasm from other businesses in the center. She sighted an example where the center's bakery delivered free coffee and doughnuts for students who wereregistering.

"The bakery in this center has been providing our students with coffee and doughnuts during the entire registration process, and that was really nice," she said.

"I think it says something about the spirit of accepting the college from the center and the people, which has been really great."

to success

Piano is instructor's

By Hank Tritchka Staf!Writer As the Iron Curtain quickly rises, the West will undoubtedly be exposed to the great talents of many previously unknown musical artists. Peter Gach, associate professor of music here at Palomar, finished his masters degree in Poland.

"I went back this year twice," he said in a recent interview, "and I am always astounded at how serious they are in their study of music." Gach, himself, became serious about piano the first time he saw one, at age 11.

Though an American, "being born in a Polish family, I was raised surrounded in culture," he said. "Playing the accordion for polkas was part of this. The piano was an easy step."

He eventually attended Indiana State University, where he won a scholarship to study piano in Poland. The openness that exists today with this country, though minimal, was non-existent then. "When I went there twelve years ago," Gach recalls, "They were pretty much closed off."

He was very familiar with the culture, but establishing friendships was still hard. While other students were crammed six to a room, he had his own apartment. "It was awkward inviting people to visit," he confessed. "To them, I seemed rich."

Still, these circumstances did not stop him from making a name for himself there. After he graduated, he gave a performance in Zakopane, a town in Southern Poland. Billboards had posters announcing his recital.

He treated the audience to works by one of their own composers, Szymanowski.

The people also still enjoy their folk music

and dances. "They had real! y maintained a lot of their ethnic culture," Gach said. He believes that this all seems to serve as a mental oasis from the oppressiveness of their government and condition.

"I remember walking through the streets in Moscow," recalls Gach, "where everything was drab and gray, and walking into a concert hall, sitting down and being thrilled at this glorious music being played on the piano."

According to the associate professor, Westerners, especially Americans, have developed a different sense for music's role in our society. "Music and appreciation of the arts is one of thousands of options. We look around and we are bombarded with 'buy this,' 'this is fun' or 'this is easy' and we don't take time to appreciate."

Developing just such an appreciation in his students is one of Gach' s main teaching goals. "In a lecture I gave earlier this year," Gach relates, "I tried to open up people's perspective to the fact that there is a lot more music out there than what they might know about. Classical music does not give its rewards immediately.

"People today are used to being given the message and easily understood melody quickly with modem music. With classical music, you have to cultivate an appreciation and understanding of it."

Professor Gach tries to help his students get everything in perspective. "We as Americans think that if we are not recognized, then we are not good musicians. We make a lot of fuss about musicians with their fame and stardom, whether classical or rock."

This thought pattern can give students the

wrong idea, he says, and ruin the fulfilling part of music.

As a teacher in a community college, Gach gets people from all kinds of professions.

"We get doctors, nurses and housewives who are learning for the first time." He continues, "We also have people who are highly talented whom we give a chance to develop and help along so they have a head start in a four year college where the pressure can be intense."

Gach says that he always tries to ~teer his students in a classical direction. Despite efforts however, he says the ratio is still pretty constant. "I have noticed that there has been about the same small number of students year after year who will be interested in classical music. These few will grab onto it and really take what it has to offer.

"I think that probably the most important thing for me," Gach concluded, "apart from the cultivation and appreciation of the music, is that the students begin to appreciate live music and the value of these performances and give support to the people putting them on."

A music instructor at Palomar, Peter Gach is an accomplished piano player. He will be performing, along with other musicians, on Feb. 24 and 25 at the Palomar College Theatre.

Last year, Gach performed Beethoven's Piano Concerto No.1 along with the Palomar Orchestra. This month, he will perform Piano Concerto No.2 as part of a plan to feature one of five concertos each year. Also included in this year'sconcert will be Mozart's Impessanio Overture and Brahm's Symphony No.1 in C minor.

Performance times are Feb. 24 at 7:30p.m. and Feb. 25 at 3 p.m. in the Palomar College Theatre. Palomar Music Instructor Robert Gilson will be conducting.

EOPS gives educational opportunity to students

By Barbara Kelley Contributing Writer Palomar College's Extended Opportunity Programs and Services (EOPS) has a unique and symbolic story behind it.

A young man was walking down a dusty road in the deep South. All the money he had in the world was one nickle, and this fact seemed to tear away at his self-esteem.

But as he walked he noticed two gnarled horseshoe nails lying by the road. He picked them up and put them into his pocket with the nickel and seemed to feel that the jingle they made added a little something more to his pride and dignity.

In 197l,EOPS adoptedthenickelandnail symbol molded after that young man's experience.

"Most of the people in the program would not be in school if this kind of program were not available to them. They need a little something extra to jingle,"says EOPS Director P.J. DeMaris. "The major reason that most students drop out of school has to do with the lack of money. AtEOPS, we try to act as a safety net to those who would normally fall through the holes in the system."

Thanks to EOPS, people who are disadvantaged by financial and educational difficulties have a chance to enroll and pursue the academic goals of their choice. The program, which is state sponsored, is designed to give financial aid and support to students who may have experienced cui tural exclusion, unequal educational opportunities, economic hardship, or social differences that have prevented them from getting a good education.

"Often, EOPS makes the difference between going to school and not," added DeMaris.

To qualify, a student must meet certain eligibility requirements. These include being enrolled for 12 units or more, having a low income status, or having black, American

EOPS Director P J. DeMaris {left) discusses services offered by the orgamzation to new student Barbara Austin.

Indian, or Hispanic ethnic identity.

Some of the services available to the 500 students in EOPS also include educational workshops and classes, among those a new class introduced this spring. '"Counseling 5- College Success Skills' is designed to help students become master students," DeMaris said. "The course focuses on time management, memory, effective note and test-taking skills, stress management for the college student, and career and life planning."

Marcy Ross, a single parent, has been in the EOPS program for over a year now, and feels that without this help she would not have been able to return to school.

"At the beginning of each semester we are

given a bookawardof$100,"Ross gave as an example. "If it wasn't for (EOPS) I wouldn't be able to afford books. There is more to EOPS than that. They helped me to plan out an educational schedule that helps me know what classes to enroll in each semester."

One-fifth of the students in the EOPS program are single parents who use the program to help them with the large costs of daycare.

Childcare normally costs close to $500 a month, which most full-time students can't afford. The parent must have a child under 5 to be eligible for this funding.

Barbara Austin, another single parent, also values the services thatEOPS offers. "I need help with books and I have special needs like childcare," she explained.

Austin, who is attending her first semestei at Palomar this spring, says that she would not be able to attend school without the serv¡ ices available here.

"Increasingly, we're seeing older students, many of whom are single parents, who are preparing themselves to return to the job market," said Phil Baum, an EOPS conselor.

"They value, on a practical level, what a good education can bring them, and that's a better life," he concluded.

Tutoring assistance, academic tracking, and personal counseling are also part of the EOPS program. To stay in the program, students must keep their grade point average at a 2.0 or above.

"But if a student's GPA falls below a 2.0, I will meet with them to discuss how to remedy the situation," said EOPS Counselor Adele F1ores. "Very rarely do we just kick (a student) out for a low academic standing.

Instead, we find ways to help them pull their GPA up."

EOPS students have a lot to look forward to in 1990, including a major building renovation that will incorporate a new study center.

"We are very excited about the new study center because it will offer so much to so many," said DeMaris. The new center will have three classrooms, typewriters, word processors, and a conference room. The center is scheduled to open this fall.

"California has one of the best community college systems in the country," she continued. "There is no reason that anyone in this state can't educationally go as far as their talents will allow them."

With help from EOPS, a higher education provides a chance for students of low income and other difficulties to jingle something extra.

Delaney's childhood memories bounce-off Comet backboard

By Rich Donovan Staff Writer DaveDelaney,pointguardofthe Palomar men's basketball team, says that his love of the game started early in his life. "My mom tells me that when I was still a baby she would sit me in front of the television when there was a game on and I would sit quietly until the game was over."

Delaney, coming off an excellent freshman season with the Comets and being named to the All Pacific Coast Conference Team, can "always remember loving the game."

He remembers countless hours of Poway street games in junior high

with his still best friends John Jaro, Adam Jones, and Jason Jones (J. Jones is also a member of the Comets). "Everyday like clockwork we were on the outdoor courts battling with each other. Even in the winter time when it got cold ... real cold," Delaney added.

They played every chance they could get. "In the mornings, at lunch and after school,we played.

Some of the time we got detention because we were late to our first class from playing to long," added Delaney, "but this didn't matter too much to us, but the teachers got irate because we were getting too

Women's tennis serve aces

By Nick Sherr Staf!Writer When it comes to the world of tennis, names like McEnroe, Lend!, Navratilova, and Evert Lloyd are bound to be mentioned. But when it comes to names like Slapak, Kaeser, Breen, or Reder most people would simply reply "who?"

What makes these names so special is that they make up one of the most successful women's college tennis teams in the state of California: the Palomar Comets.

"Players you can expect to hear from," according to coach Nan Haugen, "are (Jill) Kaeser returning from last year and (Shirley) Slapak."

This years tennis team includes Linda Breen, Kathleen Reder, Michelle Kindel, Susan Rohrer, Christine Le, ~rigitte Strate, Kaeser, and Canadian Slapak.

One obstacle which has kept these players from readying themselves to maintain that success - the tennis courts.

On Dec. 11 of last year, the six courts on campus underwent reconstruction and by press time all the courts are expected to be resurfaced and painted.

"That's a promise," said James Valentine, foreman for Kasler Construction, "as long as the weather is in our favor."

Without all the courts available for practice Coach Haugen

Top seed Shirley Sllapak displays her winning form. is making the best of the situation by having the team do sprints, interval training, running and mostly conditioning.

Haugen has been involved in tennis for over 35 years and has been the coach at Palomar for the last 16. During that time the Comets have: finished second in the nation in 1977, won nine conference titles, five of those seasons were undefeated, took first place in the state of California in 1986, with a 22-0 overall match record, finished second

in 1987 and '88, and has also helped over 30 women acquire full-ride scholarships for tennis.

Haugen knows her team has to be ready for last years conference winner and rival Grossmont College, and is very "optimistic" about this years team.

The 1990 women's Pacific Coast Conference matches start Feb. 27 with Palomar hosting MiraCosta and pre-season action beginning 10 days earlier against El Camino.

Women's hoopsters rout SD City College

By Teng Monteyro Sports Writer The Palomar Women Comets continued their dominance over San Diego City College's team when they played Friday, Jan. 26 at the Dome beating SDCC 57 to 40.

The game started with the oponent holding an early lead, but the Comets went to their passing game and dominated the boards at both ends of the court, enabling them to takea 13 point lead to the lock-

erooms at halftime.

The Cornets started out strong the second half as they scored 14 straight points led by sophomore center Mila Kiracofe who had 22 points for the game.

Palomar's defense held the SDCC team to just one field goal in about 10 minutes of play.

SDCC attempted to rally with 5:27 minutesremaining on the game clock, but the Comets managed to hold on their lead and went on to win the game.

A new decade brings a new season for Palomar's 1990 men's tennis team. Feb. 27 is the date when the reality of Pacific Coast conference play begins when the Comets are up against last years co-champs, MiraCosta.

Starting his thirteenth year as the men's tennis coach, Coach Jon Cnossen's win/loss record is "probably at the .500 mark."

Cnossen said that is not bad, considering the type of players some of the other colleges are recruiting.

"Grossmont has had players from Mexico, Nevada, Colorado, Los Angeles and Orange County, while MiraCosta has had players from Sweden, Japan and Turkey," Cnossen said.

"I know when I've had some of those kids on my team, we've done a lot better."

One of those "kids," Chris

Ullman of West Germany, was a player on the 1983 team, Cnossen noted, "He was the best player in the conference, and that makes your team a whole lot better."

Not dwelling on the past or degrading the local players, Cnossen said that some of the players from other countries, like Ullman, "are put in special schools, and they work out everyday."

A look at this year's ladder shows six of the top eight players from North County, with the others from Tennessee and New York.

The player to look for this year is Rob Schaffer from New York. "He's going to be a good player," Cnossen commented. In regards to Schaffer's strengths, he adds, "He's more consistent than any of the other players, he doesn't miss much. He knows he's a little bit better."

Cnossen went on to say, "I

think my top four are pretty even, Schaffer, Khamphay, a left-bander; Scott Brown, who can serve and volley pretty well, and Don Wieber from Poway, he'll be in there."

Rounding out the 1990 team are Robby Seeds, Greg Crawley, Brent Thorton and Getty Lee. According to Cnossen, this year's teams to beat are Grossmont, San Diego, Mesa, Southwestern and MiraCosta.

When asked if the team was ready for Mira Costa on Feb. 27, Cnossen replied, "No we're not ready to play our first conference match. We have four nonconference matches plus a weekend tournament and hopefully the guys will see enough tennis to be somewhat prepared for that big of a match."

Cnossen thinks that they will probably go through a little bit of growing up in the pre-season, and by conference time they'll be confident.

(continued from page 11) much detention."

All of that playing and detention paid off for Delaney and the boys.

They accumulated a 31-4 record their 8th grade year, making them the best junior high team in the county.

Attending his freshman year at Poway High, Delaney remembers one great basketball luxury. "We got to play more on the indoor court!" Delaney's superiority as a ball player was recognized right away. He was placed on the Junior Varsity basketball team as a freshman. From there he was accelerated to the varsity level his sophomore year. He started six games for the varsity that year but was then put back down to the junior varsity level for more experience.

Delaney talks highly about that varsity team. "That Poway High team was one of the best in San Diego County history. They won three consecutive C.I.F. (California Interscholastic Federation) Championships. It was great to have the chance to start with that team," said Delancy.

During Delaney's senior year at Poway he was voted MVP of the Palomar League and second-team All-C.I.F. He was one of the top 10 scorers in the county, averaging 20 points per game.
