Student accused of sexual harassment

The dance of life

• Male suspect follows female to classes while making sexual suggestions Steven Zivanic S/aff Wriler

A female student reported to Campus Patrol May 5 and reported that a male student had been sexually harassing her since the beginning of the semester.

According to the 18-year-old student, the man first approached her as she was leaving a classroom on Jan. 24, and immediately initiated a conversation with her. The student said the man seemed very strange, especially since he knew so many things about her-and the two had never met.

"He asked me why do I choose to work out at the Wellness Center on Tuesday afternoons. He kept inquiring why don't I work out in the morning instead. I had never seen the guy before, and he already knew my schedule-now that's scary," the student said.

The student added that since then, the suspect has followed her from class to class, continuing to harass her and ask inappropriate questions.

"He asked me if my boyfriend was the first person I was intimate with, and if so, how far did we go," she said. "He told me that I looked like Madonna-and that I remmded him of her."

The student said the man would follow her to her car, in an atlempt to "keep her safe."

The student said the man would always remind her "there's a lot of wemios walking around Palomar-you need a man to protect you-let me walk you to your car."

She added the man would try to com-mce her to read The Telescope so she could be aware of all the "crazy people."

Taking precautionary action against potential misuse of stolen Palomar identification cards, the Admissions Office has stopped printing students' social s~c urity numbers on the front of PIC cards.

The change was implemented at the start of spring 1995, with the Admissions Office formally announcing the change in a recent memo sent to all faculty. ''It was felt the combination of the social secunty number, the picture and a signature was sufficient for the possibility of fraud if a card gets into the wrong hands," said PIC coordinator John Love in his memo.

The front of the new PIC card only dis-

plays a name, picture and signature. Appearing on the back of the card is a student's soc1al security number encoded into a magnetic strip, which also exists in previous cards.

"I don't think people realize how easy it IS for someone to pickup the telephone and access information on you if you have asocial security number," added Love, who said that at some organizations or agencies. only the last four digits of a social security number are asked for verification.

According to Herman Lee, director of Enrollment Services, the change was prompted by a few students' concerns. but he said the college has not received any student reports of major incidents. Lee, however,

Cultural course may be required for degree Jeff Vize Swf!Wriler

In an attempt to promote "i ntercultural understanding," Palomar's Curriculum Committee announced plans May 8 to add a cultural diversity requirement for its Associate of Arts degree.

The proposed requirement calls for Palomar students pursuing an A.A. to take a class that includes focus on one of the larger U.S. minority groups and their culture.

"Palomar was sort of unique in that it

• Students survey views on ethnic clubs. See page 3. didn ' t have an arena to promote this, other than isolated programs," said Anne Hohman , committee co-chairperson. "The [aspect] of multicultural awareness is very much a part of California's education system."

According to the committee, a new class requirement category will be created, but the number of of required units for the A.A. will

not be increased. Palomar plans to do this by infusing multicultural perspective into existing courses. As a result, some classes may also meet requirements other than cultural diversity.

A major goal of the committee is to "equip students to live and work in the multi-faceted, contemporary American society."

Subject areas of qualifying courses will be required to include gender and culture or ethnicity. Acceptable studies of culture for the category will be African-Americans, Asian Americans and/or Pacific Islanders, Native

Americans and Latinos. Also required is the focus on one or more of the following areas: age, socioeconomic class, different abilities, an sexual orientation.

For consideration as a Multicultural Course, each department is required to submit a Course Outline of Record to the committee for review.

Tentatively scheduled for committee approval in fall 1995, the board hopes to have the requirement in place for the 1996-97 catalog. Transfer students' course requirements will not be affected by the change.

Allergies a problem for many in springtime CHARLOTfESVILLE, Va.-Ah-ahachoo. Sniffle. Sniffle.

Spring allergies. For many, they are the enemy, the source of sleepless nights, runny noses and lost class time.

"Most people come in with symptoms of a runny nose, runny, watery eyes that itch and a nose that itches," said Harriet Kolmer, who is serving her fellowship in the allergy clinic at the UV Health Sciences Center. 'These are typically symptoms of hay fever."

Various pollens cause most of those symptoms. "The main allergens are grass and trees," Kolmer said. "Usually tree pollen starts in the beginning of April and lasts throughout April. In May and June, grass pollen is present.

Unfortunately, allergy sufferers have few options short of living in a plastic

bag. "There's little you can do short of avoidance and staying indoors, which we don't recommend," Kolmer said. "Mainly just take antihistamines."

But students expressed wariness for drugstore relief. "I used to have a prescription, but I became immune to it," first-year UV student Mandy Renaghan said. "I tried over-the-counter medications, but they made me really tired. So now I just bring a lot of tissues with me to class."

'There are some prescription antihistamines that don't cause sedation," Kolmer said. But other options exist for those suffering from persistent symptoms and nasal cavity inflammation.

"There are anti-inflammation nasal sprays," Kolmer said. "One is steroids which don't get absorbed into the system.

Another is Cromolyn, which also reduces

inflammation. They both allow someone to breathe a little easier through the nose."

AJlergy shots are another common option for aJiergy sufferers. The shots are sometimes used if a patient does not want to take medication but is absolutely miserable all summer from aJlergies.

Sometimes, if doctors do not treat and aJleviate those aJiergy symptoms, aJiergies can lead to sinusitis and sinus infections. Sinusitis is a sinus infection obstructing the sinus' normal draining pattern. "AJlergies can cause sinusitis," he said. Other things also cause sinus infections, like colds."

Regardless of the aJiergy's nature, sufferers should be aware of their own body's reaction to summer's outdoor obstacles and be prepared to fight the stuffy noses.

Bless you!

HARASSMENT: Continued from Page 1 Despite several attempts to reject his obscure propositions. she said the man continued to pursue her.

The man is descnbed as a 5 foot, II inch tall white male approximately 40 years old, with dark hair and weighing approximately 170 pounds, according to patrol reports.

Immediately following the woman's report, Patrol Officers Gerard Perez and Julie Schmitt found the man in front of the D building, directly behind the Boehm Gallery on the west side of campus.

According to Perez, the man said he simply wanted to be friends with the student and had no intention ofharming her.

Perez said he asked the man if he had ever been arrested, to which the man replied "yes." He then asked the man if the charges were for indecent exposure, to which he also . replied "yes."

The patrol officer said he asked the questions because the man fit the description given by witnesses in an earlier incident of sexual misconduct on March 7, regarding an occurrence in the men's restroom of the S building.

Additionally, Perez said he told

the man to stop following the student and stop talking to her. And if he happened to see her around campus, to ignore her and not make any contact with her whatsoever.

Palomar has been faced with five prcv1ous mcidents of sexual harassment in the past month-four involvingaman following female students--either suggesting lewd comments, making offensive propositions, engaging in masturbation or filming women in the restroom, patrol reports say.

Professor of sociology Linda Locklear said she feels Palomar has become a school with an increasing risk factor for both the attending students and the faculty in general.

Locklear said she is outraged at how many incidents have occurred in the past month at Palomar, especially the recent surge of offensive conduct directed towards females .

"Palomar has to be a safe place in order for students to attend. You have to feel safe to be able to learn anything," Locklear said.

Locklear added, "We should talk about what happens in the environment at Palomar. This kind of harassment is degrading the atmosphere."

Campus Patrol Supervisor Boyd Mahan said that such problems come

with the territory. "Palomar is a reflection of the community.

Palomar is a part of the community which means that it ' ll bring in new people and new problems," Mahan said.

A caseworker at the Women·~ Resource Center in Oceanside, who preferred not to give her name because her daughter was a victim of indecent exposure at a Palomar parking lot in 1990, said she believes men who constantly stalk women are not to be taken lightly.

"These men are obsessive-compulsive types-they ' re really sick individuals. The best thing to do in a situation like this is ignore the offenders, just like the student involved in the latest incident at Palomar did. According to experts, no response is the best response, as any type of feedback will feed the offender's ego. Of course you also have to protect yourself, and always be aware, and remember to contact authorities immediately," the case worker said.

The student involved in the most recent incident agrees. "If this happens to anyone, you should tell campus patrol right away. I would have saved myself a lot of grief and frustration if only I had done so."

Students measure cultural climate Jeff Vize Sraff Wrirer

Only one day after a Governing Board Committee announced plans to add a cultural diversity requirement to the curriculum May 9, a psychology class survey has found that misconceptions contribute to the belief that minority clubs are negative.

Students Dawn McMurray, Sandra Burdick, and Daniel Tekleab conducted the Palomar survey as a project in their Social Psychology class taught by Kendra Jeffcoat. The survey was designed to judge how people on campus feel about minority clubs.

For the majority, responses often showed incorrect assumptions of why minorities join clubs.

"One of my main goals is for whites to have more of an understanding of what minorities get out of the clubs. Then hopefully there won't be as much uncomfortableness and hostility going on," said McMurray.

The 10 part survey included five questions which ranked the participant's feeling on a particular statement concerning their status as a minority. The questionnaire for the majority posed the same statement and measure their reaction as a member of the majority.

Included in the random study were 36 members of four anonymous minority student clubs on campus and 36 members of the Caucasian majority. McMurray said that the emphasis for the survey was placed upon finding people who might fall into any minority category, not just racial minorities.

Among other things, the questions inquired if students felt appropriate in dating members of another race or group or if they felt comfortable in having a roommate from a different group than their own.

Like the Caucasian subjects, the minorities' answer pattern also illustrated misconceptions, McMurray said. One question, for example, which asked how often minorities felt prejudice, yielded the highest percentage of answers in the range of 'sometimes' or 'often.' The opposing question to the majority, which asked if their reaction to an organized minority club is negative, resulted primarily in answers of 'rarely' and 'never.'

PRIVACY: Continued from Page 1 added students would occasionally discover they were enrolled in classes they did not register forthemsclves.

The college uses so~ial security numhcrs as an easy method to keep track of how often services arc used by stut.lents, accordmg to Love.

Before receiving assistance m departments, such as admissions, Health Scrnces, counseling, the Tutonng Center or math lab. students arc required to present their PIC cards and swipe the magnetic bars through automated readers.

Lee also smd students and faculty should he aware that the posting or public display of social security numbers violates the 1974 Family Education Rights and Pri,·acy Act, also knov.n as the Buckley Amendment.

P.trt of the ,unendment states that o;tude11ts <ner I mu • gi'e con~ert before sLhool rtcort.ls cal' be released to outsrdc part1es Tl11~ law gr,·cs mtcrpretat10n that teachers \\ ho rost grades may not usc :oci,ll seLunty numbers to identify students.

For students \\ho are still concerned about their pm acy, the Admissions Office can assign them a nine-digit Identification number m place of social security numbers at no charge. To request a change, students must complete forms at admissions.

According to Lee, the college has only been using social security numbers for the last 12 years.

"Prior to 1983, we were not us-

ing social security numbers at all.

We were using a locally assigned student identifier, and there was no real order to the assignment of the number," said Lee. "When we shifted to computerized processing. it was felt that a uniform identifier was needed to be con ·istcnt v. llh other ,1genc1es [such as fmancwl a1d institutes].

"We do ask for the soCJal sccur IY.V,llmberg~ t}\e,apj()~cauon form. but v e generally don't make them aware of that." said Lee. ··we certainly prefer the social security numher, because most students have memorized that. If we a:sign them a identifier_ a lot of times, the students will forget the identifier."

The number of students who have made requests to obtain another ID number is not known. The college database groups these students together with Palomar students who attended before 1983.

The issue of student pri,acy, however, has been a brgger 1. sue "t University of Callf<,rnta San D1 ego.

Speech team wins third at nationals was especially important since II of the 14 students who went had no speaki ng experience prior to last fa ll.

"You don't have to be a stellar pub! ic speaker m order to be on the speech team," explai ned Newman. "Speech is not a gift. It's something you have to work at to be good."

Cal Bell ini, Jason Whitton, T im Scott, Kimberl y Bayan and Derrick Brown were all runners-up for Outstanding Speaker in the Nation . Brown spoke his way to first place in poetry, oral interpretation of literature, and dramatic duo. Bayan took first place in extemporaneous speaking and Whitton was awarded first place in dramatic interpretation. Bronze award winners include Heidi Franz, Christy Houde, Paul Ryker, Cassy Klein, and Jon Enniss.

Gaining national recognition once agai n, Palomar's speech team recently cleaned up at the U.S. National Championships, taking the third place sweepstakes trophy home .

• Suggest that your alcoholimpaired friend stay overnight in your home. This could be inconvenient, but you could be saving your friend's life.

NCTD denies responsibility for Transit Center security Kate Nelson News Edilor

A dispute has arisen between Campus Patrol and the North County Transit District over which agency is supposed to patrol Palomar' s Transit Center.

According to Norma Bean, a marketing representative for NCTD, the lease between NCTD and Palomar says the college is responsible for security.

If any additional expenses are incurred by Campus Patrol, the NCTD and the college are to work out reimbursement.

Campus Patrol Supervisor Boyd Mahan said his understanding was that the NCTD was responsible for security. Mahan said the Campus Patrol operates on a strictly "observe and report" basis. If officers

see suspicious acti vity at the Transit Center, they go to the center to determine what the problem is and then call the sheriffs department.

Mahan said Campus Patrol officers are not supposed to confront suspects because the majority of the patrol officers are students and do not have extensive law enfo rcement trai ning.

"We' re not security for the North Cou nty Transit Di strict," said Mahan. "If a bus has a problem with security or an irate passenger, they are to call their own security."

But, Mahan said Campus Patrol officers would come to a student's aid iflives were threatened . "Out of courtesy, if you get off the bus and you' re screaming, 'someone's trying to kill me,' we' re goi ng to do something," Mahan said.

NCTD Manager of Securi ty John

Han len said he thought Palomar was responsible fo r the T ransit Center.

Since the it is located on Palomar property, he said the center was a coun ty project buil t for the convenience of Palomar students and residents of the area, and that after it was completed, Campus Patrol would assume security responsibilities .

Currently, no security guards patrol the center excl usively. Officers fro m KBM Securi ty, an outside agency hired by Palomar, patrol the entire campus at night, and they pass by the center several times each even ing.

Steve Ron, a senior transportation specialist with the Coun ty of San Diego, said NCTD is planning to meet with college officials to dec ide who wi ll patrol the Transit Center.

In another incident of students drinking on campus, May I Campus Patrol officers escorted an intoxicated student off campus, according to Campus Patrol reports.

The student den ied being intoxicated when patrol officers caught him outside the bookstore, even though he had a bottle of whiskey in his hand.

Students rarely drink on campus because of the "no drinking on campus" policy, but a few months ago two other cases were reported.

Two males were caught drinking beer in a red truck in the back of Lot 12 Feb. 17.

A Campus Patrol officer confiscated the keys to the truck and informed the two males that they could retrieve the keys at 4 p.m. The two men were also told that the incident would be reported to Director of

Student Activities Jim Bowen.

On Feb. 17, in another parking lot, a male student was caught drinking an alcoholic beverage in his car.

The man was reportedly aggressive and continued to drink even after the officer confronted him . The dri ver's keys were taken and the student left with a sober friend, according to Patrol reports .

"We don' t have any parties or events on campus that would entice drinking. We have a good group of students here," said Boyd Mahan , Campus Patrol supervisor.

"It is not uncommon for students to drink. We have a very strong policy against it. The property was given on the agreement that there would be no drinking on campus," said Beth Post, coordinator of Prevention Programs.

A committee has been formed to decide if the "no drinking on campus"policy is fairornot. 'The policy is not a problem, reinforcing is the

di ffic ult part," said Post. " It isn' t true that everyone on campus is drinking." A petition was distributed on campus that was signed by over I 00 students to keep the policy.

The ASG supported an alcoholfree Super Bowl party in January .

"We wanted to promote the idea that students can have fun without alcohol. It' s really important students get the message that drinking in itself may not be dangerous, but you could kill someone even after a few drinks," said Lise Telson, dean of Support Programs.

According to a student survey prepared by the Prevention Center in October 1993, 57 percent of under-age students have used alcohol at least once in the last 30 days .

In the same survey, 44 percent of students indicated they would prefer not to have alcohol available at parties because it makes them feel they have to drink.

10 SUMMER GUIDE

Hot flicks to cool those summer desires Chad Rebmann Staff Writer

On the calendar summer officially begins June 2 I, but as far as Hollywood is concerned summer begins this weekend with the launch of "Crimson Tide."

It's no secret that the hot season is the time when the studios roll out their biggest and baddest movies of the year. No period dramas here, just the big action films and the offbeat comedies along with the hottest romances.

The reason the summer is the best time to release a film is obvious. The kaids are out of school and the tube is showing reruns. It's the time of year when the studios will make over half of their annual gross and naturally, the pressure is on to match last summer's record $2.2 billion box office haul.

Easily the most anticipated movie of the year is "Batman Forever" with Val Kilmer donning the batsuit from Michael Keaton. The third bat-film finally has sidekick Robin (Chris O'Donnell) along with box office god Jim Carrey as the Riddler and academy award winner Tommy Lee Jones as Two-Face.

Kevin Costner's "Waterworld" made headlines as it's budget soared past$175 million making itthe most expensive movie ever made. Things got worse from there as a storm off Hawaii destroyed one of the sets and last week director Kevin Reynolds walked out over "creative differences" during post production. After last year's bomb "Wyatt Earp" it looks like Costner's career

Opening this weekend is "Crimson Tide" starring Denzel Washington and Gene Hackman. The film takes place on a nuclear submarine as Hackman faces a mutiny situation when a garbled command to possibly launch their missiles comes through. Directed by Tony "Top Gun" Scott.

Family films will be big this summer with the release of Disney's "Pocahontas." This animated feature will be risky for the big mouse because it's based on a real historical figure and has a rumored sad and realistic ending.

Other family fare include special effects dazzler "Casper", bringing the famed cartoon character to life.

"The Indian in the cupboard" directed by Frank Oz could attract kids to the theater. And yes it's true, "Mighty Morphin Power Rangers: The Movie" is heading your way.

Parents everywhere, beware.

Sequels will be a big hit this summer with "Die Hard: Die with a Vengeance" explodes your way starring Bruce Willis and Samuel Jackson. The third installment having Jeremy Irons with New York City as the backdrop for what should be another exciting blockbuster.

'Jaguar' soars through Mayan ruins at Berry farm Liz Bennett

Coasters offers fix for thrilling needs

Staff Writer

The 75th Anniversary Celebration of the Southern California's famous Knott's Berry Farm welcomes a new roller coaster, an enormous steel thriller called Jaguar.

Designed around the theme of the art and architecture ofMayan civilization, Jaguar is a gigantic 2700-foot long roller coaster that winds its way high above one-sixth of Knott's total land area. Its swerving, circling track propels intrepid passengers into an intense three-minute aerial journey. A highlight of the ride comes when the Jaguar passengers are threaded through the loop of Montezooma's Revenge giving riders of both coa~ters an extra adrenaline rush.

Jaguar is actually the sixth roller coaster in Knott's famous history. Other coasters found at Knott's; Montezooma's Revenge is famous for its monstrous loop that turns 360 degrees and stops at an upright peak, making your head spin and your eyes quibble, then it shoots backwards on the same Titanic loop.

The Revenge transports its riders through a 76- foot-high, 360-degree loop to the apex of a 148-foot tower. The train pauses momentarily at the top of the tower and then races backwards through the loop and up a 112-foot tower at the end of the opposite end of the track.

Boomerang turns its passengers upside down six times in less than a minute. It is located in the Roaring '20s area of the park.

Knott's Berry Farm is the nation's first theme park and the most popular independently owned amusment park in the U.S. Since Knott's opened in the 1920s it has blossomed into 150 acres of rides, live shows and unique family attractions celebrating the lure and lore of California and the West.

1 ~78 marked the debut of the looping rollercoaster Montezuma's Revenge which will h~v! th~ newest adventure addition, Jaguar, threading threw its giant yellow loop g1vmg nders of both steel monsters a ferocious stomach rush. Jaguar will be sure to give Montezuma's a run for its money for eager thrill seekers.

Roller coasters have been the destination or thrill seekers for decades. The rush of jadrenaline, the excitement, the laughter and ~creams are what makes millions of people ove roller coasters.

San Diego's own Belmont Park is famous or the Big Dipper. Restored recently, it's the oldest wooden roller coaster in operation.

Riders look over Mission Bay as they plum~et down the spirally curves.

If you happen to be near Las Vegas, the ollercoaster at State Line has the world 's ~iggestdrop . It is the most exuberating thrill.ng rollercoaster in the West. Passengers get on inside of the building and travel outside where the smooth drops are. It quickly turns he cars from side to side, and spins you around before it drops you of a gigantic cliff.

Magic Mountain is notorious for its roller oasters. Colossus is still one of the better twooden roller coasters. It makes your heart ~o into your chest as it throws you down the racks. If you lift your feet off the ground ~our body feels weightless when it dips and ~kips making it even more of a thrill.

Viper sends chills up your spine when the limb begins. Then it immediatly hurls you down the steel tracks followed by screams aught in the wind. It makes your body feel free, like you could almost fly.

For some odd reason, the idea that you l;ould die on a rollercoaster intrigues many, and roller coasters deliver the rush of death yet evoke a feeling of safety.

The United States has overlooked an untapped resource for cheap, reliable labor. And even better, this workforce is, well, captive.

Why not have prison inmates do manual labor for a small amount of money, which can then pay for their stay in prison, or go to the family or business against which the prisoner committed his crime?

Governor Fob James of Alabama has reinstated prison chain gangs, where shackled prisoners work outside the prison, saving taxpayer money by having the cons work for very little.

Prisons today are a far cry from those of yesteryear. Old movies always showed men in striped uniforms with a pickax breaking up rocks or making license plates.

The prisons today are different. Now prison inmates watch cable TV, play cards and do pretty much whatever they want. And, in an incredibly moronic move, prisoners are given weight lifting equipment, which I presume is to help them stay out of prison. When they get out of prison they'll kill the old woman instead of just beating the pulp out of her. That way she can't testify.

Why not get these prisoners to do something constructive instead of turning them ........~\ ( into gigantic homicidal hulks? Prison is not ~~ punishment anymore. Make prisoners do a little work. Would-be criminals might be discouraged from breaking the law if they knew they had to do manual labor in prison.

There is never a shortage of trash along the freeway. Why don't we have groups of chained prisoners clean up the roads? Some people might be worried that once the prisoners are on the outside, they would have more of a chance to escape. This is a legitimate concern, but only partly true. How far can 20 prisoners get when they're chained together? With proper supervision, prisoners can perform all sorts of public services. They can trim bushes and trees, maintain prison buildings and perform many other tasks which would otherwise require a salaried worker.

One reason the crime rate is so high is because criminals don't care about going to prison-the only thing they lose is their freedom, and some of them don't care about this.

Let's make them care. By putting prisoners to work, we will do the taxpayers a service by saving them money and deterring crime. Prisons will no longer be overcrowded, and maybe Joe Crook will think again before he kills someone or knocks off a liquor store.

Should 11 chain-gang'' style labor for convicts be revived?

Steve Troop I Staff Cartoonist

Alabama governor Fob James has recently revived old-style prison "chain gangs"-convicts are chained together at the ankles and set to work picking up trash along the highways.

Some people call it cruel and unusual punishment. Should chain gangs be brought back?

Alabama governor Fob James recently reinstated the "chain gang" method oflabor in Alabama's state prisons.

It is not surprising that this concept was reinstated by a state in the south. If we left it up to the South, slavery might still exist.

Chaining prisoners together like dogs is outdated, and is "cruel and unusual punishment."

It's turning reverts to something that didn't work in the first place, so why go back to it?

Being chained up, pushed around and forced to work is slavery. If methods such as slavery are going to be used, why not use "eye for an eye, tooth for a tooth" as well?

Perhaps cutting off the hands of thieves and labeling adulterers with a ·scarlet "A" could also be considered.

Many people would actually be in favor of these measures. These people should take a look around and see that we're not in the Dark Ages anymore. The number of repeat offenders proves that mere punishment does nothing to deter crime.

We are supposed to be a civilized society.

We have to move past these archaic forms of punishment and go towards a system that encourages people to reform their ways and rejoin society.

Chain gangs do nothing to reform the convict. They are nothing more than a tactic created to dehumanize the criminals.

In prison, the convict loses his identity, is stripped of his possessions and he lives a controlled life of uniformity. Shackling prisoners will only make them regress, increasing the trauma upon their release.

These convicts will be doing jobs such as trash pickup. Although th1s i'$ cons1dered "menial labor," it is honest work, and should·go to people who need it more than prisoners.

With the national unemployment rate up around six percent, why are we giving jobs to the misfits of society? Keep the jobs open for people who truly need them.

It is currently politically popular to be perceived as "tough on crime." James is simply trying to gain votes by bringing back the chain gangs. If he were really interested in stopping crime, he would try to treat the roots of the problem-poverty, racism, lack of education-rather than merely using these people as his political pawns.

OPINION 13

Straight From The Gut Chris Gleason

Your 'Stump the Columnist' Q's A'd A few weeks ago, I sent out a challenge to "Stump the Columnist.·• Readers were asked to send in trivia questions for me to answer.

The response has been excellent, and I've decided to make my last column of the year the first set of answers. These arc all hona fide questions . I swear.

Here goes ....

Q: What was Luke Sf..:ywalker's aunt's name in "Star Wars?"

A: That's easy. Her name was "Beru."

Q: What show and what two men were involved in the first time two men kissed on a national television series?

A: That would be the vastly underrated spoof show "Soap." The men involved were Billy Crystal and someone who wasn't Billy Crystal but played a character that reeealllllly liked Billy Crystal's character.

Q: Does Bull winkle have a last name? Or is that his last name?

A: The creator must have been feeling especially saucy the day he came up with that character. He named him Bullwinklel Moose.

Staff Editorial

So we gotta say goodbye for the summer As the '94-'95 school year draws to a close, we at The Telescope would like to thank you-those who have read and enjoyed (or hated ... or perhaps both) our newspaper.

Without readers, a newspaper is nothing more than a worthless pile of pulp and ink, and we writers and editors speak into a void. (Not only that. .. without readers, our advertisers stop sending us money!)

Q: How does one kill a boneless chicken if one can't break its neck?

A: I recommend choking the chicken .. -..

Q: How can a boneless chicken walk?

A: I'm sorry, but only one boneless-chicken

question per person per century.

Q: What is the longest-running current TV sitcom?

A: A quirky, bizarre program that kept the Fox network going during its early period"Married With Children." This may, in fact, be a sign of the Apocalypse.

Q: What is the correct pronunciation of the words cum laude?

A: That's a Latin phrase. Technicall y, because there are no recording of Latin in its true pronunciation, the correct pronunciation is unknow n. You can pronounce Lati n phrases any damned way you want. For the above phrase, I prefer pronouncing it proon daynish.

I will be back on The Telescope nex t semester, so please feel free to continue sending in your questions. Send your q uestions to: The Telescope, 1140 W. Mission Rd. , San Marcos, CA, 92069. You may also deli ver them to room TCB-1 at the north end of campu s, or e ve n e- m a il me at chri sto258@aol.com.

With the end of the semester, we will be going through some changes.

Our Editor-in-Chief, Daniel Kwan, is stepping down, and our Entertainment and Sports Editors and some of our staff writers are leaving. Many of you will be leaving Palomar for other schools, others will be taking their associate's degrees or certificates and hitting the job markets. We wish you all the best of luck in your future endeav-

ors, and we hope that our paper has been informative and entertaining.

Still others will remain here at Palomar for another semester or two {or perhaps eight or nine!) For you, The Telescope moves into its 49th year of publication, and will continue to serve the Palomar community for as long as possible.

It has been our distinct honor to be your newspaper this year.

Letters to the Editor

Clinton responsible for Waco incident

With your love, help and prayers, I have come through the critical part of ablation of my old bone marrow by the processes of total body irradiation and chemotherapy.

My body has come through wonderfully.

My daughter Janis's marrow was harvested 8:00a.m. EST and I will receive it this eveni ng at a "Birthday Party" on the Bone Marrow Unit This day is a birth for me. Tomorrow is Day + I. Duri ng this next year, my baby marrow and I must grow and be compatible.

Please keep up your fa ith and prayers for my recovery and strength.

The President just created two more hate groups to add to the list of hate groups created by the special government privileges advocated by the Democrats. We are no longer equal under the law. Progressive taxation, Affirmative Action and the myriad of subsidies and other wealth reallocation schemes make us all unequal and potentially envious and hateful of each other. The allocation of privilege for "social" reasons has effects that are j ust as perverse as the allocation of privileges by religion-dom inated governments.

Violence is inevitable.

We now add "mil itia mem ber" and "right wing talk show host" to the list of people who can be ri ghteously hated by Americans and killed by their government, like "hun ," "rich," "greedy ," "businessman," "religious fundame nta li st," "s eparati st ," " m e n" a nd

"feminazi." Clinton should feel right at home with [Rush] Limbaugh.

In my opinion, Clinton and [U.S. Attorney General Janet] Reno should be held directly responsible for the unnecessary deaths of 96 men, women and children at Waco. The Branch David ian child abuse allegations were based on an unsubstantiated Cult Awareness Network article published in Australia, and were added as innuendo to a sloppy warrant to incite a judge sensitive to that issue to sign the warrant There was no need to invade a religious compound to collect $400 in tax on two alleged weapons that Koresh, as a Class I weapons dealer, had every right to own. One plain-clothed Bureau of Alcohol, Tobacco and Firearm s agent could have knocked on the door and politely asked if he could confirm that the two guns in question were not there as Koresh had alleged.

'Little Princess' proves it has a lot of heart **** Liz Bennett

Staff Writer

"The Little Princess" is a good family film that grabs the heart and makes the audience feel as if they were in the movie.

A remake of the 1939 film starring Shirley Temple, with the same plot, this movie uses computer-aided effects to enhance new scenes and draw in modern audiences.

The film chronicals the life of a little girl,

••••••••••••••••••••

Movie review •••••••••••••••••••• Sarah Crew, who lives with her father in the beautiful country of India. Forced to leave behind the flowing waterfalls and bathing elephants when her father is called to fight for Great Britain in World War I, Sarah is placed in an American boarding school.

Sarah feels immense ties to the school

because her mother used to go there when she was a girl. Her mother died during childbirth , leaving Sarah alone with her father.

The boarding school appears to be a hospitable, refined place, but is actually run by the skunk-haired, cold hearted caretaker.

Sarah befriends many of the children . One of the little girls, Lottie, has just found out that her mother died. Sarah comforts her by telling about her own mother's death and about heaven and angels to give her hope and reassurance.

The other girls are mesmerized by Sarah's imagination that blossoms through her ability

to make up stories. Sarah always looks on the brighter side no matter how dark and dank the other side is.

She is a dreamer. She dances through sadness to find the happiness in any given situation, no matter how bad.

An emotional scene occurs when her father grasps Sarah in his arms, and hugs her until her heart melts into angel-like tears. Her feet linger in the air as he spins her around, leaving her heart in an open shadow.

Overall, it is an entertaining and touching film that is sure to please audiences.

• A cheap food connoisseur's guide to one of America's greatest institutions: the mini-mart Peter Sansom Entertainment Editor

·Mini-mart cuisine is the dining equivalent of Russian roulette- some good food, some bad and some that I can't even talk about.

So take this guide to heart next time you have a hunger in your stomach and a dollar in your pocket.

The five best looking items were choosen from three mini-marts. Both taste and cost are weighed into the ratings.

am/pm Chicken sandwich, 99 cents and worth every penny: Slap a little mayonnaise on there and some jalapeno peppers if you feel dangerous, and you're set. Plus, it won't make a mess in your car when eaten.

Barbecue Sandwich, 99 cents: Mine was burned around the edges so it had that authentic barbecue look, the inside looked like some kind of brown meat. Ribs that aren't too bad for 99 cents is alright by me.

Corndog, two for 99 cents: Wow, pretty tasty. A good hotdog, if there is such a thing, covered in some greasy breaded stuff. If you let it sit around a couple of days it makes a nice chew toy for the dog.

Cheeseburger, 69 cents: I'm sure it is probably somewhat healthy, but it evokes a school cafeteria aura. Just cover it with a lot of toppings and you'll be scarfing in no time.

If you're really sneaky you can switch the cheeseburger wrapper with the chicken one.

Two hotdogs for 99 cents: Just because it's cheap doesn't change the factthat they are hotdogs. Add some chili and cheese and you' II make out alright. Don't compl_ain though if you feel a bit queasy.

Physically challenged NCAA r~les: helmets must stay on get chance to show off Marco Buscaglia College Press Service

â&#x20AC;˘ Annual event allows many disabled students to have fun Chris Gleason Opinion Editor

Games, food and music greeted the arrival of the 17th Annual Physically Limited Sports Day at Palomar April 29.

The day's focus was not political. It was a celebration of life with a disability-that being disabled need not be the end of the world.

Games and events covered the campus. Activities ranging from chess to arm wrestling to softball throwin¡g attracted 130 participants and almost 300 volunteers.

Students came from all over Southern California to attend the event. Locally, attendance included students from Palomar, Gross mont, Mira Costa and as far away as Imperial Valley College.

"The event is a fun gathering for mentally and physically challenged community college students," said Ron Haines, director of Disabled Student Programs and Services.

Wayne Greene, a Mexican History major at Palomar who lost full use of his muscles in an auto wreck, said his favori te activity was the basketball goal-making contest.

Greene, who also was the 1994

Undefeated Club secretary, said he just enjoyed the day for its simple fun.

"I scored five baskets in a minute this year. That's better than when I scored three last year," Greene said.

Other events of the day included swimming, flying disc throwing, ping-pong and a wheelchair slalom which led from the Snack Shack at the north end of campus down the hill to the business building.

Several students who had been attending Saturday morning classes on campus stayed a bit longer to watch the event.

Lunch was held in the sunshine out by the Clock Tower, picnicstyle, with sandwiches and sodas provided for the participants and volunteers. Also present at the event was the local rock band Loam, who played a two-hour set during the lunch period in between the Clock Tower and the Student Union. Some of the students who had been in class stood by and listed to them.

Although this was the 17th anniversary of the event, it was only the sixth held on the Palomar campus.

It has been held at Palomar since 1990.

You've probably seen it at dozens of college football games: A 1 running back scores a touchdown , rips off his helmet, puts his hands on his hips and stands staring at the crowd,muggingforthecamerauntil his teammates make the trip down field to join the celebration.

This season, don't expect such I endzone displays. According to the new National Collegiate Athletic I Association rule, college football players must keep their helmets on while on the field .

Designed to cut down on unsportsmanlike behavior, the rule will prohibit players fromremovingtheir helmets while on the field unless there' s a timeout, they have an injury or are ordered to do so by an official.

Players who do decide to "take offtheir hat," as John Madden says, or partake in "any delayed, exces-

then," Holtz said. "That way, we'll all know who you are."

The helmet rule is one of several changes over the last two seasons that are designed to promote sportsmanship on the college football field.

While some players have grumbled about the rules committee taking spontaneity and fun out ofthe game, Dooley insists the rules were changed because of the meanspiritedness and self-promotion of some players.

"We need to control what happens on the field," he says. "We're nottryingtoeliminateenthusiasm."

To help combat confusion, the NCAA Football Rules Committee will meet in May to decide on what is acceptable behavior within the rules. The committee then will put together a video tape with different examples of actions that will and won't merit a flag, and will distribute them to college football programs nationwide.

"We want to keep control over this behavior that could have severe damage on the image of the game," says Vincent Dooley, chair of the NCAA Football Rules Committee. " We believe that unsportsmanlikeconduct has become one of the biggest problems facing college football today. We won't tolerate it."

Last season, Notre Dame coach Lou Holtz said he wouldn't mind if his players took off their helmets after a big play, as long as they were consistent about it.

"If a guy's wide open and he drops a pass, or if someone has a clear shot of a running back and misses him, take off your helmet

Our society is welcoming more gay and lesbian individuals to live an equally fulfilling life which everyone deserves.

Educate yourself. If you have a friend that is gay or lesbian, or if you think you are gay or lesbian, or if you are gay or lesbian, it is nice to know that there is a gay and lesbian studies course offered right here at Palomar College.

SPORTS Softball gets No.2 seed Jeremy Lynch Sports Editor

Alex Azarmi Staff Writer

Palomar's ·softball team's road to the state championship was unveiled May 6 by a committee representing the California Community College Softball State Tournament.

The Comets drew a number two seed behind Long Beach City College. Coach Eldridge would have liked the number one seed, but expected LBCC to be right there when seeds were handed out. ''I expected it to come down to LBCC and us for the number one seed," said Eldridge.

The Comets drew Los Angeles Pierce College in the first round. Their opening game will be here at Palomar May 12 at noon.

The higher seeds host the games so Palomar could conceivably host a regional finaL Also announced May 6 was the 1995 Southern Section All-State Team. The Comets got four team members named to the team including Jennifer Ortiz, Candice Fode, Augrista Belford and Mindy Anderson. Ortiz was named Pitcher of the Year.

If Palomar wms Its first game, its sec.ond round game will be May 12 at 4 p.m. against the winner of the Chaffey-Moorpark contest.
