(Photos by Jeremy Kamiya) Board of Governors to review drafts for relationship policy Allison Penned Assistant News Editor The Faculty Assembly, who consists of representatives from each of the 16 N.C. institutions, drafted its considerations for a policy for amorous relationships and submit­ ted it to the Board of Governors last week, said Peter Petschauer, head of Faculty Assembly and Appalachian history professor. One of the considerations for the policy recommended by the Faculty Assembly was to develop a broad understanding of the conduct of faculty, administrators, students and staff toward each other. Members of the Fac­ ulty Assembly suggested that the policy should look at all categories of individuals as adults or professionals who maintain a high standard of conduct toward each other and toward stu­ dents. The Faculty Assembly also recom­ mended that the Board of Governors remem­ ber that faculty members, like staff members and students, are not born married and must find partners in the communities and work settings in which they live, work and study. That is one of the few places where individu­ he Appalachian wins national award Qela Brady t°r In Chief The Appalachian received a national ^is weekend's National College Meonvention hosted by the Associated ColPress and the College Media Advisers ashington, D.C. The National Newspaper -maker Award, judged by The Washington > was awarded to 10 schools in the four non-daily category.

Accepting The Appalachian's award was John Lane, managing editor of this year's staff. "The award is a great honor for all those who were on staff last year," said Lane, "and gives all those on this year's staff some­ thing to work toward." The convention was the site of nu­ merous workshops on the latest trends, skills and issues related to student media, and was considered a great success by the ACR CMA and all the students and advisers from all over the United States who attended.

In addition, they wanted the Board of Governors to consider the fact that several of our universities are in small towns and the choices for partners and friends are limited. The Faculty Assembly saw amorous relationships as consisting of two categories: consensual relationships and harassment. The assembly encouraged the Board of Governors to first establish guides for model behavior and then to offer examples of inappropriate con­ duct. They felt model behavior would be that which would not harm an office environ­ ment as a whole or pressure faculty, staff, or students, to submit to an unwanted relation­ ship. Model behavior for faculty members is to create a learning environment inside and outside the classroom which would allow in­ dividuals to thrive intellectually. They discour­ age any relationship, even if it is between graduate students and students, if one of the students is in a position of authority. They also suggested a broader elabo­ ration of the modified sexual harassment state­ ments that are presently in the faculty hand­ books at many universities. For example, the supervisor who en­ ters an amorous relationship with an employee may tend to favor that person to the disadvan­ tage of other persons in the office. While the two individuals bound in this way may think of themselves as innocent and supportive of other persons in the office, these in turn may look negatively upon the situation and gain an increasingly hostile attitude toward their work place. They felt the policy should spell out that such a relationship could seriously under­ mine the educational environment. The Faculty Assembly also gave rec­ ommendations for enforcement of such a policy. For one thing, they felt any policy should clarify that all administrators are re­ sponsible for enforcing the policy and they are in turn accountable to the institution. They suggested that any other elabo­ ration to the policy might add that a harassed person mav turn to administrators, including departmen chairs, deans, provosts and oth­ ers, for guidance. The Board of Governors will meet Nov. 9 and 10 for their monthly meeting. News Briefs Kirkley gives talk on drug use Marijuana is one of the most abused drugs on college campuses, but regular mari­ juana users are in the minority, according to Dale Kirkley, an alcohol and drug counselor in Appalachian State University's Wellness Center during a new program called "Lunch with Uncle Sigmund." Recent studies indicate that mari­ juana use, after a decade of slow decline in the United States, has significantly increased in recent years. This has been noted at the high school and college level. College students who are chronic users of marijuana usually have a circle of drug using friends, and when they stick to­ gether they do not see the larger reality around them, Kirkley said. "Their perception is that everyone uses pot and their lifestlye revolves around it," he said. "Chronic users often develop a strong psychological attachment to pot, such that feeling high often becomes the preferred state of being. These chronic users also may develop a strong lack of motivation, feeling lethargic and undirected." "Most students who use marijuana may not develop a dependence on it but will likely experience negative effects, such as short-term memory, dulled thinking and rea­ soning skills, poor concentration, and a weak­ ened immune system," Kirkley said. "Pot smoking greatly increses one's risk of devel­ oping lung cancer." Instead of seeking these effects, Kirkley said there are ways to learn how to live in the "here and now" and to learn to en­ joy the moment without drug use and the risks and problems it brings.

Come sleet, snow or nose-numbing temperatures >s will proceed. Of course, the policy is not »d in those terms, but the intent is still the same [he Handbook actually says the university "re s the right to cancel classes during inclement ler." However, students know this right remains erve much more often than it is put into effect, i cases where a decision is to be made about s, the Chancellor consults with the Provost, the [hancellor for Business Affairs, the Vice Chan for Student Development and other university anel. These decision makers, all of whom are d in one safe, warm building on campus de Students should be forced to traipse from buildbuilding in subzero temperatures with frozen nd hands. It seems that the status and wel of students is not considered as much as the rsity"s desire to keep its "school no matter what' is also stated in the Student Handbook that y members who cannot make it to class because avoidable causes" must notify their departchair and the chair will make arrangements :ir classes to be taught anyway. If faculty memire unable to travel to school because of "unible" snow, why should students who are un0 get to campus be punished? ne of the administration's objections to letting s out is that most students live within 2 miles lpus. When it only takes a few steps on an icy alk to cause a bad fall, why should anyone be 1 to be out in the weather? aother popular argument that the administraas against letting classes out is that they think tudents will just go out and get hurt skiing or ing. There is no need to get a broken leg on the ; when you can break your arm and get frost alking to class. What is the difference? so, the Inclement Weather Policy, as printed in ident Handbook is not specific as to what the c temperatures and wind chill factors are that tomatically cancel classes. There should be a : off point that decides when classes should ely be held, not the opinion of a few univeriployees. ;o, if classes are going to be held despite icy Iks and roads, there should be a concerted nade by the university grounds crew to salt ar all sidewalks on campus before 8 a.m. That ss, the grounds staff calls in to say that they make it to work because of "unavoidable n weather policy needs to be more specific and -ty of on and off campus students needs to be > priority of the Chancellor when deciding :r to hold classes.

As a matter of fact, I've written four or five of them, dictating to myself through clenched teeth as I searched for a parking spot that would not ultimately re­ quire a ty^lk to Hampton's Auto Body to pay a $50 towing charge...again. Yes, I looked forward to exposing a plot using exorbi­ tant parking fines to finance some swanky loft for profes­ sors in New York. Maybe write another diatribe about a government institution too incompetent or unwilling to meet the needs of its customers. Or better yet, smoking out a pinko environmental conspiracy to discourage the God-given right to drive an automobile because of some caribou and Gwich'in Indians 5,000 miles away...oh well, it sounded good in the car. Regular readers know I'm not shy about criticizing our school, but after looking into the parking problem let me report student frustrations have been heard and are being addressed competently and aggressively. Recently a math class polled that frustration, using 455 randomly selected students. The findings are not sur­ prising. According to Kierstin Mullins, who compiled the numbers for her class report, 74 percent of seniors have experienced, and 83 percent of freshmen expect to experi­ ence, parking inconveniences. Of those polled 65.7 per­ cent have a car on campus and 49 percent of them are unhappy with the current parking situation. (The remain­ ing 51 percent must either be early risers or handicapped.) Of those who do bring a car on campus 22 percent of them cited limited parking as the reason for their frustration. So what's being done? According to Jane Helm, Vice Chancellor for Business Affairs, an outside architectural firm has been hired to look at the school's layout and mab recommendations within the month. "At this point," she says, "we're strongly considering a parking deck because we need to get maximum parking out of our limited space." She wouldn't commit to a deck saying only, "We're waiting to hear from the architects before any final decisions are made, but parking is certainly a top priority right now." She also added, "We doubled parking fines to discourage unauthorized parking this year." "Unauthorized parking," she says, "Creates more prob­ lems than one may realize, especially when they take up space reserved for authorized students." Unless the architects come up with some unfore­ seen suggestions we should go for the deck. Opponents fear a deck will block the mountain view, but let me suggest that if they back away from it far enough that shouldn't be a problem. A deck is the only practical solution, and according to the poll, 76 percent of students say we need one and 35 percent of those are will­ ing to pay as much as $200 a year to use such a facility. I asked Roy Thgman, Division Director of Public Safety and University Police, why we rlon't eliminate River Street's bike paths in favor of parking. "That's not our decision," he said. "River Street is a state highway and we would need permission from the Department of Transportation." He added, "We do have authorization for major events but have decided the road is too narrow and therefore too dan­ gerous for full-time parking." After taking another look, one has to conclude he's probably right. As far as students who have stickers, live out of town, but can't find a spot and end up getting ticketed, he as­ sured me that it was not due to overbooking. "We do not oversell our parking spaces. A spot is always available, it just may not be a convenient one." Of the 5488 spaces available, there have been 5800 stickers sold. Obviously not every car is here all the time, so any suspicions about the $330,000 in fines paid by students last year being a result of overselling is unfounded. As much as I hoped the parking fines funded a swanky loft, Helm assured me, "Fines pay to maintain and staff the lots. The state doesn't subsidize parking so we have to do it ourselves." One has to conclude that between the outside ar­ chitectural firm, the dou­ bling of fines, the options already considered, and a willingness to invest in a parking deck, we seem to be in good hands. We'll know if the fines worked next year, but it makes sense to raise the price if you want to dis­ courage something. Mullins suggests a portion of the deck be reserved for hourly parking so students who spend less time on campus aren't charged disproportionately. This suggestion sounds like it could be profitable for the school and offer students a low cost alternative. A lot of students are complainine about our crhool's growth. Yes, parking is frustrating, but the university is seeing to our needs and treating us like the valued cus­ tomers we are. Why be snobs? This administration should be applauded for allowing more people to benefit from an expansion that hasn't affected the quality of education. So what if we have to walk a little further to get it? ...Student frustrations have been heard and are being addressed competently and aggressively. Keep oil drilling out of Alaska Barbara Gaddy Guest Columnist The state Alaska brings to mind frozen tundra, lots of snow, and wide open plains teeming with caribou, wolves, grizzlies, polar bears, and birds of all shapes and sizes. It is also the home of 7,000 native Gwich'in people. The Arctic National Wildlife Refuge (ANWR), nestled in the northeastern corner of Alaska, is a complete pristine ecosystem that currently provides safe habitat for thou­ sands of animals and a means of subsistence for the Gwich'in people. Their livelihood and culture depend on the herd of 160,000 porcupine caribou that utilize the ref­ uge and the coastal plain it encompasses. While the majority of the refuge is fully protected, the 1.5 million acre coastal plain remains open to the threats of oil companies eager to expand and develop this un­ touched area. It is estimated that there could possibly be enough oil underneath the plain to supply us with enough fuel for only 200 days. Who among us can justify the outright de­ struction of such a vital ecosystem and ancient way of life for a possible 200 days of oil? The recent move in Congress is to do just that. The Republican budget bill which is being pushed through Con­ gress allows for the opening up of the ANWR to oil compa­ nies and the industrialization that they inevitably bring. Exploration of the coastal plain would entail the construc­ tion of several airfields, ports, desalination plants, large production facilities, many large drill pads and about 300 miles of roads. Should this happen, the majority of wild­ life,' the ranks of the porcupine caribou herd, and the Gwich'in culture would be virtually destroyed. The ANWR belongs to all Americans - we each own a to keep my 16 foot area pris­ tine - oil spills and heavy machinery do not mix well with untamed natural wildlife, wildlife that belongs on this "last great wilderness." As of yet, our congressman, Richard Burr, has not yet declared a position on this issue. He has not yet been forced to make the pro-oil or pro-wilderness choice. Now is the time; it is critical that we let him know how we, the con­ stituents, feel about this issue. Lenny Kohm, a native of the Todd area, has been work­ ing for the protection and preservation of the ANWR for years. He is a talented photojournalist who has lived among the Gwich'in people. Kohm spends his time traveling the country, showing off a spectacular slide show and educat­ ing the public on this extremely crucial issue. Lenny Kohm will make his presentation in Farthing Auditorium at 3 p.m. TUesday, Nov. 7. The public is en­ couraged to attend and learn more about what's going on. According to the United States Fish and Wildlife Ser­ vice the coastal plain is the "center of wildlife activity" on the and is the only area in North America that "...protects, in an undisturbed condition, the complete spectrum of Arctic and sub-Arctic ecosystems." Is the destruction of such an invaluable resource really worth 200 days of oil? The future of the ANWR, the porcupine caribou herd, and the Gwich'in people is in jeopardy, and it is imperative that each American does what is necessary to insure that it is projected for each of us. The best Way Wdd ttfR-Wto personally get fn touch with Richard Burr's office and encourage him to support the Arctic wilderness. In addition, a large turnout forLenny Kohm's speech on November 7 is an extremely valuable way to send a strong message to Burr - support the ANWR and save the "last great wilderness."

Food Services is bringing in a food consultant to see how feasible fast food facilities on cam­ pus would be. What has taken them so long? I'm sure that students have been dissatisfied with the food on cam­ pus for years. It's about time that the university realized students don't like paying big bucks for meal plans only to find out that the food is bad and costs much more than that found off campus. I'm sure that this situation isn't new. The main problem with the food on campus is that it costs way too much. The food isn't disgusting, it can be fairly tasty on occasion, but what it costs doesn't corre­ spond with the pretty low quality standard. No student would argue that stuff in the cafeteria tastdS like it does at home. I can't recall one time my mother forgot to actually dry the lettuce before she made a salad with it. We never had to eat grilled cheese sandwiches that were made with anything except real dairy products in my house. Why should students have to pay high prices to get low quality food? For exactly $3.38 you can get a quarter pound, all beef burger with lots of stuff on it, large fries and a me­ dium Coke at Wendy's. At the food court it would cost you $3.10 but you would get about 18 limp fries and your coke would be flat, not to mention that the burger may or may not be mostly beef. 1 shiver at the thought. Wouldn't you rather pay the extra 28 cents and get food you can trust to be good? I called the Market to get some prices for staple items and was appalled at what I was told. A can of spaghettios is 96 cents at the Market and about 60 cents at the Harris Teeter on Shadowline Drive. Six-packs of Coke in cans are a whopping $3.60 on campus and $2.19 at Harris Teeter. A 20 ounce bag of Lay's plain potato chips is $2.99 on campus and $2.19 at the grocery store. Notice a hefty mark­ up? I was told that the Market has to raise prices because they pay more for items because they can't buy in bulk. I say close down the small store in Trivette and open a new one in the old Harris Teeter building on King Street. Stu­ dents could work at the store and the university could buy items in bulk and charge us what regular stores do. As long as we could use our meal cards, students would surely patronize the store. The location is perfect and the Appalcart already runs past there. The best thing would be that students would be able to eat food that they like and would probably eat better nutritionally. I have been told that fast food will probably come to the Appalachian campus, but I'm not holding my breath. When the day comes that students can choose between Taco Bell, McDonalds, and Arby*s we will probably all be alumni. At least our kids will be able to eat chicken nug­ gets while we drag them up here to see football games.

John Starling Reporter Where can you see rice, toast and water flying through the air? An underwater wed­ ding with a complimentary continental break­ fast? Try the traditional atmosphere of a show­ ing of the Rocky Horror Picture Show, the cult classic film about an alien scientist who cre­ ates the perfect man to satisfy his deviant sexual needs. A.RES. sponsored a Halloween night showing of Rocky Horror at Legends. The evening began with a D.J.'d dance, featuring dance music of the '80s, as well as modern club sounds such as Nine Inch Nails and the Beastie Boys. After about an hour and a half of danc­ ing, the audience was settled down to begin a costume contest. Of all the outlandish outfits in Legends, the winners ended up being "Uncle Fester" and a guy dressed as a sperm cell. Then the movie began. As the intro to the film began to roll, the eccentricities of the audience began to show. Cheers and jeers came rolling from the lips of otherwise normal college students. When the character name 'Janet" was said, the audience replied, "B !" The character Brad received the same kind of treatment with the scream of "A !" Dr. Frank N. Furter was greeted with warm applause from the viewers. The comments that echoed throughout Legends were a part of the well known "audi­ ence script" circulating among the die-hard fans of the Rocky Horror Picture Show. The script tells audience members when to throw various objects and actively participate with the film. During the wedding sequence at the be­ ginning of the movie, people responded with flying rice. When Brad and Janet are caught in a rain storm, the audience broke out water guns and squirted each other with them. At some point in the movie a cast mem­ ber calls for a toast, and you guessed it, toast was launched all over Legends. At another moment in the film, the audi­ ence leapt from their seats to participate in the "Time Warp," a dance from the film. Those in attendance had different re­ sponses to the peculiar events of the evening. Brandon S. Powers, a freshman from Fayetteville, took the sights he saw in stride. "It was pretty cool, 1 guess," he said, "even though I'm not a transvestite." Some folks had other attachments to the film and the surroundings that go with it. "It brought back a lot of good memories from home," says Erin E. Poage of the event.

This was the 20th anniversary of the cult classic which bombines cinema and the wet improv theater. (Photos by Aaron Fein) a freshman from Texas, is used to the odd prac­ tices of the film's fans. She and her friends used to watch the movie regularly. To the uninvolved viewer, the cross-dress­ ing and absurd costuming of Rocky Horror took on a truly bizarre nature. To some, though, like freshman Mark T Dolister of Hope Mills, it was difficult to make much out of the sights. "I thought people were really getting into the spirit of Rocky Horror," he said. Halloween was made into a truly memo­ rable evening to those who attended the Rocky Horror Picture Show. For first time Rocky view­ ers, the sights they saw will stay with them forever. For veteran "Time Warpers," it was an evening to kick back with an old favorite. Regardless of their experience with Rocky Horror, everyone left with an energy to live. As Dr. Frank N. Furter sang in one of the final musical pieces of film, "Don't dream it. Be it!" Tired of watching T. V.1 Ryan Price Reporter It is the weekend and you are bored. You haven't heard of any parties and you don't feel like watching a movie, so what do you do? Instead of being bored for the umpteenth night in a row, you may want to check out a few of the bars here in Boone. There is every­ thing from pay-per-view boxing to good live music, and food from cheeseburgers to wings. Bars are a great place to unwind after a tough exam or just spend time with your friends. There are sports bars, pool bars, dance clubs, pool bars masquerading as dance clubs (would that be a "club-vestite?"), band bars, bars with decks, and just plain old-fashioned manly-man/stale pretzels/dart-throwin'/large screen T. V/thick as molasses German lagertype bars. In the 1970s the trend was singles' bars, complete with polyester bell-bottoms and the Bee Gees. The '80s gave us ferns, Izods and the Jackson family. Now in the '90s, bars have evolved into the family of sports and live bands. You can go listen to an assortment of lo­ cal acts and hoist a brew with your buds, or you can go watch Tyson beat up on some poor invalid. It's up to you, and Boone has a wide variety to choose from. The serious sports bar in Boone is Geno's. Geno's is so serious that the armchair quarterbacks can compete against one another to see who is the best couch potato by playing QB-1. QB-1 is an interactive football play-call­ ing game that the viewer uses while watching the real thing on one of Geno's nine televiGeno's is big for box­ ing events and Monday night football. On Monday's they offer drink specials and serve wings. Junior Jason T. James of Greensboro says he likes going to Geno's because "They show all the NFL games on Sunday, and it's a good place to go grab a beer and have a good time." For those students who enjoy live music and good food, try Blue's Barbecue or The Klondike Cafe. Tuesday is openmike jam night at Blue's. It is popular because you can hear some good new mu­ sic. On Thursday, Friday, and Saturday nights there are a variety of bands rang­ ing from Janie Grey to the Self-Rising Biscuit Brothers Band. The Klondike is popu­ lar during the day and at night. In the afternoons it is a popular hangout be­ cause it has an outdoor bar where students may sit and watch everyone in Boone walk, jog, bike, or drive by. Senior R. Dale Ellis of North Wilkesboro says he enjoys The Klondike be­ cause it is "a wonderful place to sit in the sun and partake of the spirits." The Klondike also has live music and books acts like Purple Schoolbus and 100th Monkey. On Sunday night they also have open- Try some of the local spots Appalachian paddling club lives for the tk —I- Matthew Russ Reporter mike night. The Caribbean Cafe is a little trendier and has good one man shows or small bands. They Blues Barbecue (top) and Klondike Cafe (above) are just two of the local spots students frequent in Boone. (Photos by Ryan Price) offer wing specials on Mondays, open-mike on Wednesdays, and live music on Tuesday, Thurs­ day, Friday, and Saturday nights. "I like going to the Caribbean because it makes me feel in­ tellectual. I can order a good beer and listen to some music," says senior Christian Carkow of Boone. The Mellow Mushroom is a new bar in Boone. It is located where Sollecito's used to be and has a large outdoor deck. They have an occasional musical act and offer beer spe­ cials nightly. It is spacious and there is plenty of room to hang out if you have a large party. If you like to dance and play pool, Savan­ nah Joe's is the place to go. Often referred to as the "meat market," its biggest night is Thurs­ day, when they have a DJ. On Fridays and Saturdays Savannah's has live music that cov­ ers the entire spectrum, ranging from country to alternative. You can play pool for around $3 an hour per person. Senior Stephanie S. Schuster of Charlotte says she enjoys going to Savannah's because "It's a lot of fun and it's close. You don't have to drive to Charlotte to go to a good club on Thursdays." So there you have it. The secret is out, or as many Appalachian students already know, there is no secret. There is plenty to do in Boone on the weekends and even during the week. You just have to get out and look. \ If you have ever ridden a roarin; in a canoe or kayak, then you may* stand the rush felt by the members Appalachian Paddling Club.

Mountaineers hold off Keydet comeback Hornets: blunder nr h / j .s David Willis Darryl Stevens Sports Editor Staff Writer Sports Commentary The Mountaineers dodged a bullet Satur­ day and remained undefeated on the year with a 26-24 win at VMI. With a little over a minute to play, Keydet quarterback A1Lester was stopped short of the goal line on a two-point conversion attempt and the ensuing onside kick was recovered by the Mountaineers as they barely squeaked out the win. "It was a terrific football game," said ASU Head Coach Jerry Moore. And on the twopoint conversion, he said, "It was a have to deal. The defense made the big play when they had to." VMI jumped out to an early 7-0 lead on the opening possession as tailback Thomas Haskins ran 19 yards for the score. The Keydets did not waste any time as they took the ball 76 yards in five plays. However, the Mountaineers came right back as a failed VMI fake punt ended with an incomplete pass and Appalachian took over at the Keydet 20. Unable to move the ball inside the 10, the Mountaineers scored on a 32-yard field goal by Jay S. Sutton, of Wingate, N.C., to decrease the lead to 7-3. Following a three and out bv the Keydets, Appalachian took over at the VMI 45. This time, ASU moved the ball well, and on fourth down and one at the seven yard line, fullback Aldwin Lance of Shallotte, N.C. busted up the middle for a gain of six. On the next play, Lance went in from a yard, out for the score. Appala­ chian took the lead 10-7. The next VMI possession ended on an­ other incomplete pass from a fake punt and the Mountaineers took over at the Keydet 38. Six plays later, tailback Damon L. Scott, of Cedar Grove, N.C., ran the ball in from seven yards out and put ASU up 17-7. The Keydets came back and on their next possession moved the ball well in part to a couple of 15-yard penalties against the Moun­ taineers. On third and seven at the ASU 38, Haskins fumbled and Appalachian defensive back Jamie M. Coleman of Laurinburg, N.C. recovered at the ASU 44. The Mountaineer offense again moved the ball well. This time the trio of runners for the Apps, Lance, Scott, and Scott F. Satterfield of Hillsborough, N.C. combined to lead the Moun­ taineers. Eleven plays and 56 yards later, Lance scored his second TD of the game to put the Apps ahead 23-0. Sutton missed the extra point attempt after successfully completing his last 58. The Mountaineers appeared to have com­ plete control, but on its next possession, VMI led by the running of Haskins and a 39-yard touchdown grab by receiver Marlon Anderson, the Keydets pulled to within eight as Lester ran in the two-point conversion and put VMI back in the game. Appalachian had the lead 23-15 going into the intermission and its defense had held Haskins to just 77 yards rushing, but VMI made the necessary adjustments and came out look­ ing for its second consecutive win over the Mountaineers. Neither team could put any points on the board in the third quarter, but on the first play of the fourth, App's Sutton connected on a 25yard field goal and the Mountaineers then led 26-15. Needing two scores to win, the Keydet defense would shut out the Mountaineers for the remainder of the contest and on its next possession, VMI went 44 yards on 12 plays and came away with the 32-yard Mike Harris field goal and the Keydets were back to within eight. The Mountaineers were looking for a little insurance on their next possession, but after driving down to the VMI 16, Sutton missed a 33-yard field goal wide left, and with 6:15 re- The San Francisco 49'ers 0ft(V Be a warning to the NBA's Charil The Panthers' big Sunday sum ' the NFL champs into chumps E that the 'Niners were relying ^' last-resort quarterback, and that - " San Fran's starting 22 was riddled^' jury, can't take the win away.

(File Photo) maining in the game, the Keydets regained possession. The Keydets moved the ball to the ASU 47, led by Haskins and the passing of Lester. Following a timeout with 1:46 remaining, Haskins went around the left end for 47 yards and the score to put VMI within two, but the Mountaineer defense stopped the two-point conversion and ended the Keydets comeback hopes. Haskins had another great game against the Mountaineers, rushing for 200 yards on 32 carries and three TD's. Offensively for Appalachian, Scott rushed for 122 yards on 33 carries and Satterfield rushed for 79 yards on 13 carries. Satterfield was also 8-13 passing for 77 yards. Defensively for the Mountaineers, Joe M. DiBernardo of Miami, Fla. led the Apps with 12 stops, Dexter W Coakley of Mt. Pleasant, S.C. had 10 stops, and Elando M. Johnson of Chapel Hill, N.C. had eight tackles in his first game starting. Appalachian improved its record to 9-0 on the season and VMI fell to 3-6. The Moun­ taineers will renew their battle with Western Carolina for the Old Mountain Jug on Satur­ day, November 11. Appalachian has won the last 10 meetings. Game time is set for 1:00 p.m. at Kidd Brewer Stadium. Field hockey takes second in conference tourney Lady Hyun Kwon Reporter The field hockey team beat Catawba Nov. 1, by the score of 3-1, showing Catawba what they're made of. "Since we scrimmaged Catawba earlier in the season and had won the scrimmage, we went into the game on a positive note," stated Head Assistant Coach Karen Poole. With the added win to their record, the Mountaineers not only brought up their record, but also went into the Deep South Tournament with a 3-12 record. "The ladies had a very consistent game and played very well," explained Head Coach Cathy Burleson. "Everyone got to play and it was one of our better games and it gave us a positive feeling." Forward Barry Elizabeth Clyatt, a senior from Greeneville, Delaware, scored an inside circle shot with an assist from midfielder Megan Lee Corradino, a junior from Norfolk, Virigina, in the first half. At halftime the Moun­ taineers were tied with Catawba 1-1. In the second half, forward Jennifer Lynn Brodrick, a junior from Waldorf, Maryland, scored the second goal for ASU. With 4:14 left in the second half, Brodrick made an assist to forward and captain Elena Diane Moore, a senior from Huntingtown, Maryland, who put in another goal for the team bringing the score The squad had 21 inside circle shots and nine outside circle shots. Goalkeeper captain Ingrid Ola Stamberg, a senior from Barnesville, Maryland, had 11 saves, and goalkeeper Kathryn Perry Pearson, a freshman from Win: ston-Salem, North Carolina, had one save. "We played a short passing game and played well," commented Blackwell, a sophomore from Wilmington, Delaware. "We wanted to have a good game before the tournament," explained Coach Poole. "The girls had real team sripit and a positive atti­ tude. Winning put us in a good frame of mind for the tournament." The Deep South Tournament started on Nov. 3 and at Davidson. Davis and Elkins lost to St. Louis, which matched ASU against St. Louis in the first round of the tournament. "We had a very good practice the day be­ fore and it put us at a positive attitude to play against St. Louis," exclaimed Coach Poole. The Mountaineers scored two goals in the first half. The first goal was made by Corradino and the second one by Clyatt who had an as­ sist by Joyce Marie Hill, a senior from Poolesville, Maryland. With the score tied at 2-2, the teams went into overtime. Blackwell scored the winning goal in overtime, giving ASU the win with the score of 3-2. "This was the most exciting game I have coached in four years," exclaimed Coach Burleson. "It was a total team effert and the whole team played well." Winning the first round brought the Mountaineers to the finals of the Deep South Tournament which was held the next day. The finals consisted of Davidson and ASU. "We didn't play as well as the St. Louis game, but did a good job," stated Coach Burleson. The team held the game scoreless in the half until Davidson scored with 7:26 left. Then with only 2:50 left in the game, Davidson scored one more goal ending the game with a 0-2 win and winning the tournament. "The team brought everything together and played really well," commented Stamberg. With Davidson in first place, the Mountaineers placed second. "I was very pleased with the way the team played, and the team was very consistent," explained Coach Burleson. Coach Poole added, "The team ended on a good note. The whole progress of the team is important going into next year, and we will just work on the basics." Three of the Mountaineers made the Deep South Tournament Team. The three were Clyatt, Jodi Elizabeth, a sophomore from Canton, Connenticut, and Tara Jeanne, a jun­ ior from Fall Rivers, MA. Blackwell commented, " We gave 100 percent throughout the tournament and played our hardest." The team's hard work paid off.

Appalachian made quick work of Davidson on Friday night even though they did drop a game to the Wildcats. Appalachian took the first two 15-4 and 15-1 before drop­ ping the third game 16-18. However, the Mountaineers were determined not to lose a match that was their's so they took it in the fourth game by the score of 15-2. The season's final home game on Sunday also proved to be the team's most important to date as they faced the first place team in the conference, Marshall. Coming into the match each team had one loss in the confer­ ence, Appalachian's coming to Furman two weeks ago and Marshall's coming to Appala­ chian almost a month ago. Whoever won this match would walk out of Broome-Kirk with first place in the Southern Conference. Coach Dave Markland described the win as "big for several reasons". For one thing the win puts the Mountaineers in excellent posi­ tion to win the regular season crown in the conference. It also just about gaurantees the Mountaineers the number one seed in the con­ ference tournament, barring an unexpected loss to Western Carolina or UT-Chattanooga next week.

The lucky winners will enjoy free pizza, Coke, and a free t-shirt. Also, the win­ ners will lead the Mountaineers out onto the court. Be a part of the action and enjoy this basketball season with the "Best seat in DA House." To sign up or if you have any questions, call the ticket office at 262-2079. Hornets continued from page 6 The departure of Rasheed Wallace, Jerry Stackhouse and Joe Smith are the biggest reasons for the ACC's "fall from grace" - not that other conferences haven't improved. But players escaping to the NBA early is a problem for coaches trying to keep some sort of continuity within programs. It's a grim price athletic departments pay, for daring to recruit the best players.

Currently, our #2 National Ranking would give us home playoff games until the NCAA finals on Dec. 16 in Huntington, WV All student tickets will sell for $7 and their purchase is important to meet the bid guarantee and in order to maintain home field advantage. Tickets will go on sale after Nov. 13 and may be purchased through the ticket office in Broome-Kirk Gym. Tickets for any road games may also be purchased through the ticket office. In the event that ASU hosts a first round playoff game on Saturday, Nov. 25, residence halls will reopen that morning at 11 a.m. Your identification card will work at the main entrance of your residence hall after that time. Please notify the Resident Assistant on duty of your return to campus. If there is not a home playoff game, residence halls will not reopen until 1 p.m. on Sunday, Nov. 26.

The equipit was ruined when someone poured sand m the gas tank and engine of two bulldozand a front loader during the night. Fortunately, an operator working on the construction site found the sand on the engine during a daily check of his machinery before the machines were used. "We're lucky that the operator found the sand before we started working, because those engines can cost up to $30,000 a piece," said Bill Reece, area supervisor of the construc­ tion area. "We're trying to do a job here," said Paul Brown, one of the partners of the Brown Brothers' Construction Company. "We're not bothering any one, we are just doing our job and if anyone has a problem with me or my company, I would rather have them come speak to me than have someone sabotage our equipment." Two days following this first incident, a second act of vandalism occurred on the con­ struction site. On the morning of Oct. 20, con­ struction workers arrived on the site to find that wires and hoses had been cut on a back hoe. The workers also found the area's tree markers stuffed into the back hoe's radiator. Results of the damage include losses in the down time of a day and a half of both machinery and man power. They also resulted in the cost of four mechanics to drain the ma­ chinery of the sand and the cost of replacing hoses and wires on the back hoe. "I can't see why any one would want to sabotage us." said Brown. "We've always felt happy to be a part of the university commu­ nity, this has never happened to us before." see Vandalism Page 2 lalloween hits Appalachian SGA looks at program cuts instructor position had to be removed.

Accuracy and Public Service since 1936 Ouropinion... ACC location not a 'done deal 1 The building plans for the Appalachian Convo­ cation Center have been drawn-up, showing a 200,000 square-foot behemoth (that's over four football fields large) in the middle of what is currently Rivers Street. However, with so many problems and ' objections raised in connection with the site, perhaps it is not the most appropriate place for the Center. In an open forum held Monday night, Jane E v Helm, vice chancellor of business affairs, said the university is still open to suggestions as to where the , ACC will be located. Townspeople expressed their concerns about the location, because of possible flooding which could be exacerbated by the build­ ing, traffic problems during events (which will be v affected that much more since Rivers Street is being rerouted), and high decibel levels affecting the apart­ ments adjacent to the property, all of which could be _ created if the ACC were built in the currently planned - location of Rivers Street near the baseball field. We have all seen the problems the Boone Mall faces when it rains, and it is also built on a flood plane. The baseball field is already plagued with < problems of flooding in heavy rains, so is it really reasonable to think of putting a multimillion dollar r facility on the same flood plane? What visitors - or i students, for that matter - are going to want to drive their cars through water and mud two feet deep? •' Perhaps looking at other options would be wise. Helm said she thought the Rivers Street location ' was the best possible option, considering the fact that classrooms will be included in the building. Some have suggested building the facility in the State Farm area. However, we agree that a location so far away from campus would make it very difficult for students to get to class on time. Getting from State Farm to Walker Hall, for instance, would be next to impossible, even with expanded AppalCart service. The original site planned was the Stadium lot. Unfortunately, that would have eliminated approxi­ mately 500 parking spaces - which. Appalachian definitely can not stand to lose. It would also be situ­ ated in extremely close proximity to several dormi,, tories, creating horrendous confusion during the time it would take to build the Center, and a "concrete campus" in that area upon its completion. With such a small campus, it is going to be very difficult to find a location which is amenable to ev­ eryone involved - students, faculty, staff and towns­ people who will also be affected by the presence of such a facility. However, the effort to do just that should be undertaken seriously, as this building has been approved for construction and will remain with us forever. The editorial board of The Appalachian believes everyone who has a suggestion about why they be­ lieve the ACC should not be located near the base­ ball field or - perhaps more importantly - where they think a better location is, should express it to Appa­ lachian administrators. Finding another location would be better for everyone involved in the long run, and could possibly save the university a lot of money and trouble.

Editorials Editor Clay Barbour Features Editor David Willis Sports Editor Richard Smith Asst. Features Editor Vanessa Urruela Columnist What everyone seems to agree about concerning the anti-gay messages in the tunnel is that they were unneces­ sarily hateful. What nobody seems to want to talk about is the motivation behind such action. It is time for us to wake up and look past the obvious feelings of sympathy most of us had and examine why there are people who agreed with the messages and threats. Gays are the last minority group it is considered "okay" to hate. While there are many reasons for this, the fact is most of them revolve around ignorance and fear. It is al­ ways the unknown that scares people the most. It is estimated that one in 10 people is homosexual. Some people say this figure is probably really much higher. I think it is. The first element I wish to address is the sexual ele­ ment of gay life. Just like straight people, gays should not be defined by what they do in bed. If all the straight people were chastized for sexual activities like oral sex or ldssing in public, there would be a lot less people interested in criticizing sexual behavior at all. What differs between gays and straights is obvious - it's not what you do in bed, but who you do it with.

Just because a man prefers to love and make love with men, does not mean that he desires all men, no more than straight men desire all women. One misconception is that gay people are very pro­ miscuous. Most of the gay people I know are more con­ cerned with finding love than a sexual partner for a fling. I know that this is not true of all gays, but it is also not always true of heterosexuals. Gays are not all slaves to their sexual desires. They are no more likely to hit on a straight person than the straight person is to hit on them. Gays are not more likely to molest children or rape either. Most child molestors are heterosexual males. Gays aren't inherently more violent or perverse than any other group. It is individuals that choose to be deviant, not whole catagories of people. The next element that is often overlooked is the ste­ reotypes that people tend to define gays by. Not all gays are like the ones you see on television or in movies. Why is it so easy for people to realize this about different races, but not about gays? The answer is that it is still "okay" to degrade gays because they are considered to be deviant and weak. The predominant stereotype of a gay male is a man who is effeminate, pays close attention to his appearance, and is perverse. The stereotypical lesbian is a man-hating butch who is a femi-nazi and manly. These characteristics are merely labels. They provoke our society to allow gays to be discriminated against even though they are largely inaccurate. Stereotypes are the way children learn about people and how to treat them. It is sad that people can't grow up long enough to get to know a gay person before they judge them all Judging a homosexual because of what th your peers feed you is like judging all womety T those found on pin-ups found in dorm rooms all pus.

Does anyone remember who they are? Quick...it's been two days since they were published on the front page of The Appalachian. When only eight percent of the student body votes for these figure-heads, one begins to question how important they really are to the students. The only purpose these people have, as I see it, is to give us a little variety in half-time shows. But then again, isn't half-time when everyone stocks up on junk-food and goes to the bathroom? This old and boring tradition forces the Chancellor to take time from his Saturday afternoon nap, and the band has to cut shori their wonderful half-time show, just so the Homecoming Court can be paraded down the field and cash in on 30 seconds of their 15 minutes of fame. According to the Director of the Center for Student Involvement and Leadership Dino Dibernardi, all the rec­ ognized clubs and organizations on campus have the abil­ ity to nominate somebody from their organization. The nominees are then voted on by the all the students. The Homecoming Court is determined by who gets the most votes, and the king and queen are the court mem­ bers who get the most over-all. Basically, what we are looking at is a popularity con­ test. Everytime I think of the expression on Homecoming Queen April D. Worley's face, I'm reminded of Sally Field's second Oscar acceptance speech, when she exclaimed, "You love me. You really love me!" Student Govement Association Director of Public Af­ fairs Misty Rumbley said SGA is trying to give the king and queen more responsibilitites. They will eventually become some sort of representative of our campus. Do we really need another representative of our cam­ pus though? And should it be the Homecoming king and queen? No offense to our majesties, but what sort of re­ quirements did these nominees have to fill before being voted in by popularity? Did the general student body know they were voting for people that would represent us all? Before they go out and become our representatives I want to know if they can speak in public. I don't remember any debates. I don't remember hearing all the nominees talk about what they believe in. What if the students unkowingly vote in a mass-mur­ derer as king, or a pedophile as queen? Are these the kind of people we want to be our representatives? This year is the first year there has been a king. Let it be the last. The Homecoming king and queen should be eliminated before their duties are expanded any more. Save us from any possible embarrasment by them in the future. I don't think anybody will really miss them. Sure, there will be people who write in and complain that I ig­ nored my responsibility as a journalist, that I didn't check the facts. Well, I did check my facts and I came to the conclusion that the king and queen have about as much purpose on campus as the unnamed art in front of Walker Hall. When this sees print, our little bizarre celer of old pagan superstitions and the embracmem, darker sides of our psyche will have come to gat loween, what an unusual holiday.

Disgusted by opinion RAs misrepresented To the Editor: An unsigned editorial berating leaders of a group that has received death threats?! The Appalachian's editorial board really missed the target on this one. What is needed is not blam­ ing the victims — who are not in the least re­ sponsible for what is done to them. Nor is it useful to tell the oppressed what they should do to stop the oppression. We — I assume that at least 90% of us are heterosexuals, and therefore in the oppressor group — need to work on ourselves. We need to give up the oppressor role, and work to help others do the same. To do that, we must first examine the roots of oppression in ourselves and our socialization, and give up the inhuTo the Editor: I would like to express my utter disgust regarding the "Our Opinion" article printed in the last issue. To begin with, B-GLAD is an organiza­ tion devoted to diversity, not to promote a ho­ mosexual lifestyle. Unfortunately, I strongly feel that the article printed conveyed that to the student body. Secondly, I would ask the editorial staff this question: would you have all homosexu­ als and bisexuals draw a target on their fore­ heads? This is not a game anymore. There were death threats on those tunnels walls. DEATH THREATS! It is a known fact that hate crimes begin with threats and then lead to vio­ lence. The President of B-GLAD has every right to be hesitant to print his/her name in your paper. I use the term "your paper" simply be­ cause it seems as if an article such as this ex­ presses only your opinion and not the opinion of the student body as a whole. I do realize that this section is dedicated to your opinion, but I feel the Appalachian staff has a responsi­ mane behaviors that result. These behaviors range from violence, to remaining silent in the face of oppression, to denying our connection to every other human on earth. We must also reach out and be allies to those who are op­ pressed, by acknowledging that they were hurt, by listening without judging to their feelings of fear and anger, and by affirming their right to exist and to be themselves. Let us all use this incident not to continue such behaviors as exhibited in the editorial, which do not work, but as an opportunity to practice new ones. Karl Van Ausdal Music Library bility to the student body to reflect a more di­ verse opinion. You are journalists, not people employed to challenge others to put themselves in a life threatening position. Your reference to Martin Luther King Jr., 1 felt, was completely uncalled for. Although he faced a similar struggle for equal rights for a minority group, the issue of homosexual rights is completely different. We are talking about a different time and a different group of people. People discriminate against homosexu­ als and bisexuals because of their lifestyle, not for their skin color. 1 also do not recall ever hearing of Martin Luther King Jr., with all due respect, ever defending homosexuals during the Civil Rights Movement. In conclusion, I would ask the board of The Appalachian one more question: If you were a homosexual and you saw 50 death threats painted on the tunnel walls, what would you do? Homosexuals and bisexuals may have more "to fear than fear itself." Erin B. Smith ASU Box 11315 Football follie To the Editor: I have never been so embarrassed as I was this past Saturday at Homecoming. This year 1 decided to go with a group of people including my fiance and daughter and several other adult students. We arrived at noon to get a seat in the student section only to find that the entire area had been stakedout by the fraternities. In case you are unfamiliar with this prac­ tice, it means a brother is posted at the end of every third or fourth aisle to protect the area. We picked an unprotected row and sat down. Almost immediately we were ap­ proached by a brother who said, "1 have no authority to ask you to move, but this area is reserved for KA students and alumni." I then asked him where I could find any rule saying that they had the right to bar any student from sitting in this area. He slunk back to his broth­ ers who huddled together to discuss the prob­ lem, close enough and loud enough to be clearly understood. The basic conversation was that they would get us to move. Over the next half-hour we watched them run-off other students and were approached repeatedly to be warned that the brothers and the alumni would be rowdy, drunk and cursing. When the game started the intimidation stopped, but the area was slow to fill, until almost the end of the first quarter. Then I was disappointed to discover that not only were they not rovydy or cursing, they didn't come {o see the game. They sat and socialized and drank, openly mixing drinks and passing vari­ ous bottles around. They stayed through the halftime festivities then thinned out. I was expecting to at least be verbally bashed for daring to sit in a fraternity row. So, what did I find so embarrassing? I was appalled that ASU students would treat anyone so rudely, especially at Homecoming. My fiance was an invited quest and an Alpha Tau Omega alumni brother who was insulted enough to want to leave. It is my understand­ ing that as a full-time student I have the privi­ lege of sitting in the student section if seats are available. These seats were available so we sat. I would suggest that if the brothers all want to sit together in the future that they ei­ ther all arrive early enough to get a seat or pre-purchase a block of seats elsewhere in the stadium! To the Editor: Of all the inaccuracies, misspellings, grammar "don'ts", biases, slanted stories, and other "un-news" that I have seen in the Appa­ lachian, the article below the misspelled word "Appalachian's", concerning "Resident Par­ ents," was the last straw for me. Have you guys ever heard of a thing called perspective? It's a really nifty thing that let's you see all, if not more, sides of a story. This editorial specifically is concerning Resident As­ sistants. I found your article about RA's, at best, completely off-base with what a good RA is and is not. An RA's job is not concerned with just discipline. Your article failed to mention how RA's are trained as para-professional counse­ lors and can deal, and have dealt with, many crisis situations. Your article failed to men­ tion the many skills RAs leam in the three hour class they are required to take to have the job. Your article failed not only to mention how ASU has one of the best Student Development Departments in the nation, but how RA's on this campus alone did over 2,000 educational and social programs last year. Your newspa­ per can feel free to call the Office of Residence Life at 262-2160 to get the exact numbers. It's called getting sources; look into it. Your article also failed to mention other things RA's do on this campus, like attend Staff Developments, weekly reports (which rarely include things about discipline), one-on-one's with their Resident Directors, weekly staff meetings, many RA's attend RSA to show their support for their building, many are involved in committee activities like Homecoming, ser­ vice projects, or any number of other activi­ ties in the hall. They are required to do 11 programs per semester that deal primarily with needs assessment and working together as a staff. On top of all of this, they have to report back, both in writing and verbally, to their Resident Director who is ultimately responsible for what goes on in their hall. RA's aren't parents, policemen, detectives, snoops, baby-sitters, or whatever else your paper or any person on this campus wants to call them; they are there as a mentor, a friend, a role-model for the hall, and if they are doing their job correctly, they are there to remind people that there are consequences for their actions. They are there to establish commu­ nity, build trust among the residents, and to intervene in crisis and other counseling situa­ tions. They are there to provide a safe and nurturing environment so that we can all grow and leam from our residence hall experiences. They are there to key you into your room and, in some halls, spend in the upwards of 30minutes at a time doing so. The bottom line is this: RA's serve in many capacities on this and other campuses around the nation. The next time your paper or any other entity on this campus decides to look at an RA as a "par­ ent," I challenge you to look deeper and real­ ize what RAs really do. I'd bet that if one were to ask their RA what they spend their time doing with this job, they'd be surprised. It's the most difficult, frustrating, rewarding, chal­ lenging job anyone could have. If you think about it, every RA on this campus is under a microscope and being evaluated by everyone they encounter. That's not easy. RA's do this job because they love the interaction with resi­ dents, not for the money or because they are looking to be a parent. morals and values. As far as I know, morals and values are rights and wrongs. But how can you stand for something you just said you do not know? In my opinion, it is this belief that is causing so much havoc in our society. When there is no established right and wrong, there is not a standard to live by. When there is no standard to live by, individual freedom and rights are violated. We must remember that with freedom comes responsibility. Our country today is constantly debating what is "moral." Abortion, welfare, television violence, sex education, etc. All these contro­ versies are contributing to the moral deficit we are facing. And just like the monetary deficit, this one is also growing. I like to use this analogy: Football is a game that has rules. There are penalties, re­ wards, violations, stoppages of play, and con­ sequences. The game simply cannot be played if these rules are not enforced. Our society, in its inability to define a clear right and wrong, is attempting to play a game of football with out any rules. Now, we know this cannot be done. In fact, the result looks nothing like the game intended. I think you see my point. In any game, or society, there has to be estab­ lished rights and wrongs - rules to play by otherwise, there is no game. Secondly, you commented on a certain Christian group's "bribery" to supposedly "per­ petuate their faith." Well, what I saw on cam­ pus that day, Ms. Galgoci, was what many bumper stickers call a random act of kindness. There was no threat, no pressure, no obliga­ tion. You've taken generosity and made it into a monster. I think it just goes to show where we are as a society when an obvious act of love and friendship not only goes unnoticed, but is also regarded as wrong. Finally, you closed your writing by com­ menting on the social deviance act that also took place on campus. You wrote, "the project was carried out as an academic project and neither fits in with this discussion, nor does it stand as someone trying to insult another's religion." Well, I must disagree on all three accounts. You see, what made it a "social de­ viance" act was that it did insult another's re­ ligion; academics had nothing to do with what happened; and it has everything to do with what your discussion was about - it was a right vs. wrong controversy. Again, I must reiterate that a society with­ out rules cannot exist. Our courtrooms every­ day are destroying the standards by which we have lived for the past 200 years. Study his­ tory. You will see that all prosperous empires have been destroyed. Why is that? They lost sight of what kept them strong - they turned away from the order that got them where they were. I, too, welcome any response. A discus­ sion of this in further detail is in proper order. I don't claim to know everything, but I do know what history has taught me. It seems that if we had a little more knowledge of the past, we might not have these problems in the fu­ ture. Jason Holt Baldwin ASU Box 17389 e-mail: JB4314 Judgement needs debate To the Editor: I would like to remark on Theresa Galgoci's letter to the editor which was in the October 26 edition of the Appalachian. Ms. Galgoci concluded her writing by welcoming any response, so here is mine. I totally agree, Ms. Galgoci, with your opposition to the man and woman who car­ ried the aggressive and condemning sign around campus the other week. In fact, I took the opportunity to confront the couple and ask them about their faith, question their motives, and inquire as to what results they were seek­ ing. Just to satisfy any curiosity, he claimed no denominational affiliation, nor recognized himself with any church body. He simply claimed one thing, that of having a desire to help others gain a right relationship with God. Of course his method -of "helping" js in quesUgryjJnd this T&where we agfde. Nit tdo many religions can deny the need to be a stepping stone for others to know God. This man, in my opinion, was more of a stumbling block. Let us remember how Jesus handled the ston­ ing of a woman caught in adultery. He said, "He who is without sin cast the first stone." No one threw anything. We are not justified to pass judgement. Sharing your faith is one thing, condemnation is another. However, though I agree with you so far, I have a few concerns regarding the rest of your letter. You wrote, "I don't claim to know what is right and wrong, however, I do have values and morals I do stand up for." Maybe it is just me, but I don't see how a lack of knowledge of right and wrong can lead to a knowledge of Suzanne D. Faircloth ASU Box 7837 II Scott A.

Michael Kendziora each donated a blan­ ket and some canned food before Saturday's Homecoming game because they realized what a hard time winter must be for people who can't afford heat and groceries. "We especially wanted to help with the drives after we heard that the Hunger Coalition is low on canned food, and we figured that a couple of blankets could do a lot of good for someone who needs them," said Lewis. Although the organizers of the drive con­ sider it a success, they are already planning ways to improve upon the campaign. Getting alumni involved, having off-campus SGA sena­ tors travel around their apartment complexes collecting food, and setting up can collection points right in the residence halls are likely additions to the "Make a Difference Day" project next year. You saw the banners hanging in Sanford ill last week. You saw students waiting pantjy for donations behind a booth in the stu­ nt union. Did you just walk on by, or did u take time out of your day to help the cause? rtunately, there were a large number of juntaineers who didn't just walk on by. By jday afternoon, SGA and Appalachian and »Community Together (ACT) were on their iy to reaching their goal of collecting 200 tnkets and 700 cans of food for the Watauga ,unty Hunger Coalition. Last week's food and blanket drives were rt of the Hunger Coalition's "Make a Differce Day," an annual event designed to give >d and warmth to those in need. Though ipalachian has participated in this relief ef1 many times before, there seemed to be a >sh sense of excitement that inspired a later amount of participation. "The fact that this year's 'Make a Differce Da/ fell on our homecoming was a real ssing for the food drive. I think the homeming spirit helped the campus to really get pched about giving back to the community," id senior Yi-Chun Lai. Senior E. Brian hnson, a member of both the SGA and ACT lped coordinate the two drives. "At the ACT ice and at SGA, we thought this was a great :a to get students motivated and mobilized do something really practical and easy, but nothing that would really make a difference the community," said Johnson. The acil day on which the Hunger Coalition hoped make a difference was Saturday, but SGA d ACT decided that Appalachian could lend ire of a helping hand if the project was made last throughout the week of homecoming. Members of SGA and ACT spent much of t week calling other student organizations solicit their help with the week-long drive, hough many campus organizations plan to Id their own food drives later in the year, a xl number of them were more than happy pledge their support and bring in cans and nkets. Many fraternities and sororities brought tations to the booth that was set up in front ;he stadium before the homecoming game. ;shmen Sigma Nu pledges Robert E. Lewis If you were living under a rock last week and missed the chance to show your humanitarianism, there will be an even bigger hunger crusade in November. From Monday Nov. 13 until Friday Nov. 17, SGA and ACT will team up once again (this time with other organiza­ tions helping out from the start) to put on Appalachian's annual Hunger and Homelessness Campaign. The week before Thanksgiving will have events and activities to raise Appalachian students' consciousness of the poverty around the world, as well as in Watauga County. Senior Lauren S. Hitde says of the stu­ dent participation in the food drive,"I think we as students realize that we are not our own entity, but a part of a community that we owe it to to help." 1 "I DROfOf? i 0>lfXoX£iS E { Canned 'K Katharine £.

Their show is an acoustic lover's paradise. Indulge yourself. Steven Mackay Reporter Director Gus Van Sant's satirical drama "To Die For" (Rated "R") is just that: a wild peek at murder, ambition and television celebrity. Hats off to its drop dead (literally) star, Nicole Kidman, who is destined for absolute stardom. Told in a series of mock interviews and flashbacks, "To Die For" tells the story of Suzanne Stone (Kidman), a lass who will do anything to become a superstar TV news re­ porter. Suzanne's dream to become the new Bar­ bara Walters is an uphill battle. She's working at a rinky-dink local cable station that prides itself on its weather forecasts and not much else. She's married to a well-meaning lughead and family restautant operator (Matt Dillon) who wants her to succeed, but feels like a third wheel on that motorcycle called marriage. This makes her feel guilty, so what's a girl to do? Well, kill hubby and wait for the fame and pity to pour in. Suzanne has been working on a documen­ tary about teen-agers at the local town high school. Her three subjects are natural born losers who turn into natural born killers, thanks to hefty dishings of seduction, lies, wild sex and psychological games. Did 1 mention that this movie isn't for anyone below the high school age group? Be warned, parents. ...

Af­ ter he blows hubby's brains out, Suzanne drops Jimmy and his pals like an empty toilet paper roll. The results are a bit of a surprise, thanks to screenwriter Buck Henry, who also plays a rolled-up magazine wielding principal. After languishing in do-nothing roles in "Batman Forever" and "Far and Away," Kidman has finally found her milestone film. From now on, people will refer to Tom What's-His-Name as Mr. Kidman. When it comes to satire, some actors either play too silly or too stiffly. Kidman, on the other hand, hits the mark just right - she mixes sexiness, danger, loving warmth and aloof coldness into one heck of a shake. If she told me to kill somebody, my immediate response would be to wipe the drool off my chin and say, "Sure!". The big surprise that Henry throws in at the end is enjoyable and funny, but it's also off base for this type of film. I don't want to give anything away, but Van Sant and Henry should have taken a "Natural Born Killers" approach to the climax, instead they throw in a dose of poetic justice, or maybe it's tragic irony. Still, in today's media culture where crime does pay, it's not that much of a hindrance to see some­ thing done right. Even if it is in the movie world.

Mike Daniels David Willis Sports Editor Virginia Military's Geoff Goff booted a 44yard field goal and Appalachian's Scott F. Satterfield, of Hillsborough, N.C., was picked off on the1-yard line as VMI stunned the Moun­ taineers 26-23 in overtime and robbed ASU of its first Southern Confemce Title since 1991. . That was last year, do not think that it will happen again. "Revenge is not going to be a factor," said ASU linebacker Dexter Coakley. "It will be in our minds, but we'll prepare for them the way we prepare for everyone and we are going to go out and play ASU football." If you think revenge will not be a factor, you are fooling yourself. Last year VMI was 0- 10 and Appalachian was poised for its first home playoff game since 1987. VMI tailback Thomas Haskins rushed for 225 yards and two touchdowns on 32 carrries. Appalachian as a team only had 181. The Mountaineers had four turnovers in the game, including three Satterfield interceptions, while coming up with only one turnover of their own. This year, the Mountaineers are only al­ lowing 100.9 rushing yards per game and have only given up100 yards to an individual rusher twice, NC A&Ts Milton Shaw and to Marshall's Chris Parker. Do not expect another incred­ ible performance from Haskins. Last week, Appalachian defeated UT-Chattanooga 31-18 and the Mountaineer defense only gave up 83 yards rushing, to a backfield that boasted the Southern Conference's Offen­ sive and Freshman Players-of-the-Week com­ ing into the game.

Spartans continue dominance over Lady Spikers Mike Daniels Reporter Appalachian's Lady Spikers dropped an out of conference match for the first time since September with a 3-1 loss at UNC-Greensboro on Monday. The last time the Appalachian State women's volleyball team lost an out of confer­ ence match was September 30th against UNCGreensboro in the championship match of College of Charleston tournament in Charles­ ton, South Carolina. Greensboro had also beaten Appalachian back on September13 here in Boone. Things were bad for Appalachian right away, as UNC-Greensboro came out on the attack and took both of the first two games by the score of 15-10. In the third game, with the match on the line, the Mountaineers managed to pull together and fight out a16-14 win over the home team. Unfourtunately for the Lady Apps, the Spartans proved that they could play above their normal level too. The home team came out in the fourth game and killed Appalachian's comeback hopes by the score of 15-3. Some of the stars for Appalachian in this match were Sheri L. Leverette of Lakeland, FL, who led the team in kills with 15 and digs with 24. Erica J. Bahry of Etobicoke, Ontario also turned in a fine performance, tying Leverette for the lead in kills and registering 12 digs.

Field hockey woes continue Hyun Kwon Reporter ASU field hockey's defense surrounds an opponent. (File photo) With a lot of ups and downs, the field hockey team lost to Georgetown on Sunday, 4-1. "It was disappointing that we lost," commented captain Ingrid Ola Stamberg, a senior from Barnesville, Maryland. "We just couldn't pull it to­ gether." Megan Lee Corradino, a junior from Norfolk, Virginia, took a shot from the inside circle making a goal in the first half for the Mountaineers with an assist from Heather Marie Gleason, a freshman from St. Louis, Missori. "We started off very strong," ex­ plained captain Elena Diane Moore, a senior from Huntingtown, Maryland, "but Georgetown came back hard and scored within the next ten seconds. We fell apart both defensivly and offensivly." Head Coach Cathy Burleson stated, "We had a good start, but it hits hard psychologically when the other team scores so fast. It sucks the wind out of you." The team had seven inside circle shots, one which gave the squard a goal, and twelve outside shots. Stamberg had 25 saves and Forward Barry Elizabeth Clyatt, a senior from Greeneville, Dela­ ware, showed great preformance with her nice shots and consistant game. The second half gave the ladies a hard time. "We never regrouped to­ gether as a team and just went down hill," exclaimed Coach Burleson. " Our strength is to play as a team because as individuals we can't win. Also, the girls get frustrated because we can't win making it hard to play." The Lady Mountaineers will be playing against Catawba Wenesday, Nov 1. They had a scrimmage against Catawba where they got a win. Hope­ fully they can capture another win be­ fore going into the Deep South Tourna­ ment. * Men's soccer struggles on the ra David Willis Sports Editor Appalachian's men's soccer team suffered a couple of losses over the past week to a couple of nationally ranked teams, losing to North Carolina 2-1 and UNC-Greensboro 6-2. Last Wednesday, the Apps traveled to Chapel Hill and played a very close match with the Tar Heels. The Heels jumped out to a 1-0 lead in the first half. UNC's Kerry Zavagnin put the Heels on the board with 21:18 gone in the game. Appalachian's defense stepped up and held North Carolina to just four shots on goal in the first half. Following the intermission, the Heels came out on the offensive and added another goal at the 56:31 mark in the half, to take the 2-0 lead. Appalachian fought back and got on the board with a goal of its own at the 68:43 mark. Naoshi Yamauchi scored his second goal of the season by drilling a shot past UNC goalie Dimity Drouin.

That is when they became aware of the ACC plans. "In the study we see a minimal rise in level and flow, but three to five inches really affects us (the mall), " said Bamett. As of April 1993, FEMA regulations stood at 31.26. What used to be the 100-year flood, now comes about once a year and the 50-year flood comes twice a year. Any increase in velocity or total water coming through is a problem, said Bamett. "Our plea is that you look very carefully at what it (the ACC) will do. We hope you find additional fund­ ing to study the water impact." Rob Holton, owner of Holton Management, said he thought the con­ vocation center would be a super as­ set to Appalachian and the community. He agreed that the present location was the only reasonable site which met the criteria needed. He was concerned, though, about two issues. One concern was the deci­ bel level that would be created from the cooling tower for the ACC build­ ing. He said 400 students live in that immediate area. Holton was also wor­ ried about where the extra water from roof drains and paved areas would be disposed. Gail Knox, a town member, said Appalachian should address the prob­ lems now because 25-50 years down the road would be too late to start worrying about anything'. Knox was uncertain as to how traffic would be controlled, especially event days.

She said 18,000 attended the game; whereas, the ACC would only hold 10,000. She empha­ sized that most people attending the special events would be parked away from campus and shuttled in. The special events at the ACC also would not be as frequent as the football games, said Helm. Helm also said a 500-car parking deck would be built behind the Aca­ demic Support building to accommo­ date the people attending the ACC. Remote parking and shuttles will be used at the times when the 10,000 seats would be filled. Knox also brought up the ques­ tion of the energy efficiency of the fu­ ture building. Mark Zack, vice presi­ dent of Hakan, Corley, Redfoot, Zack, Inc.architectual firm, said one example of what they will construct is the use energy efficient lighting. Three-tube figures will allow only one of the three to be turned on in each classroom, if so desired. "The cooling tower is de­ signed into several segments," said Zack. He said it does not all have to be used at the same time. John Council, a town member who was concerned about the flood problem, said he distinctly remem­ bered the flood of 1940. "It's amazing how much water can come off that mountain," he said. Helm said this is a $30 million project and it would not even be con­ sidered as a site if they thought it would be flooded. "We feel in many ways this location will better serve the community," said Helm. Helm said ASU is not closing its eyes and ears to new suggestions from the town. "It's not a done deal." Stadium lot was the first serious location studied for the ACC. The two main problems with that site were (1) it was not large enough and (2) it would have eliminated 500 parking spots. After she and the ACC commit­ tee saw how the building would look visually, the new location was pro­ posed in May. They are currently look­ ing at bridging Rivers Street; a tunnel had been planned. "We are looking for a state of the art facility." " TOLL FREE 1-800-467-4581 IDON SMITH HONDA • DON SMITH HONDA * DON SMITH HONDA • DON SMITH HONDA • DON SMITH HOND o NEED A PLACE TO LIVE?

(Photos by Robert Parriott) Speak out1 against hate 'Students, community eact to messages if violence in tunnels mee Cagle laff Writer Concerned faculty and community mbers put together a "speak out" against te crimes and intolerance on Oct. 25, eight after the Rivers Street tunnels were van­ ned. The speak out was an open forum that owed students and community members to :et and talk about the messages of hate ainst homosexuals that were spray painted the tunnels. One faculty member said there Te over 50 actual death threats in the tunIs. "The more we voice our outrage, the we empower irselves," said Dr. dissa E. Barth , dictor of women's ncerns. She also id that by doing this ey would take back e Power from the ople who hate. Mary L. •ichel, university liatian, was the oderator of the forum and read a letter from 'ancellor Francis T. Borkowski. Borkowski this act of hate "denigrates the human spirit reflects the intent of the perpetrators to anize and isolate people of difference." He o said this issue must be addressed and can•* tolerated, j Many students were shocked that this L° tbing could happen in Boone, where so pfy different people live together and go to . same classes. Several people had questions )re OASIS is granted money for improvements about the messages being criminal acts. One student asked if the acts are prosecutable and if hate groups could be kicked out of school. Although 17 states in the United States currently have laws against hate crimes, North Carolina is not one of them. Appala­ chian State does have a policy prohibiting these types of crimes, however. One student said that many people did not think what happened in the tunnels was very important, but that this attitude is wrong and death threats are not protected by the First Amendment. Many of the people agreed that this issue of hate and intolerance needs to be talked about and that the forum helped to bring about the healing of those hurt and an­ gered by the messages in the tunnels. A few of the mes­ sages in the tunnels were from the Bible. One such message was from Leviticus, which stated that homosexuals would be killed. Christians on campus were ap­ palled by the mes­ sages and supported the efforts to repaint the tunnels, stating that, "My God does not condemn like this." "The messages painted on the tun­ nels force the issue," said one person. "It's a chance for people not gay and lesbian to talk about hate crimes." Another said the mes­ sages gave people an opportunity to reach out and have a dialogue with people they normally "The more we voice our outrage, the more we empower ourselves. see Speak Out page 2 Index Fairness Accuracy ano PubFe Service sire® 193S Office Hours: Monday- Friday 8-5 ,CWs & sP°"s 262-3104 Hela Brady , Editor In Chief 262-6149 n is Page 4...

Laurie Lyda Reporter The Opposing Abuse with Service, Information and Shelter (OASIS) Organization was recently granted $37,000 for improve­ ments through a Community Development Block Grant Local Option project. The project was included in $635,000 in grants through a new municipal program that uses local resources to obtain state and federal funds to sustain community develop­ ment projects. The grant comes almost in conjunc­ tion with DomesticViolence Awareness month, which is October. "The OASIS shelter is in dire need of repairs," said Jennifer Herman, the shelter's director. As many major renovations and up­ grades will be made as the money allows. They are still trying to determine what needs to be done, though Herman did say the instal­ lation of handicapped ramps is being planned.

The money must then go through a bidding process. OASIS hopes to begin reno­ vations in the next couple of months. OASIS is the only organization that deals with domestic violence and sexual abuse victims in this area. It serves Alleghany, Ashe, Avery and Watauga counties, which have an estimated total population of 83,000. Herman said she has seen an increase in the past couple of years, which could be at­ tributed to increasing population and society's heightened awareness through available edu­ cational programs. "I feel that society is be­ ginning to utilize its services," she said. Herman said the use of the shelter fluctuates. Last year OASIS served 121 clients, housed 60 clients and 47 children, and an­ swered 350 crisis calls. New York loft losing money Heidi Dull Reporter Faculty and students voiced their opinions at a special forum held Oct. 26 in I.G. Greer Auditorium about Appalachian State giving up the New York loft. Appalachian has rented the loft at 67 Bestry St. since 1973. The idea behind rent­ ing the loft was proposed by William Dunlap, a former art professor at Appalachian. The forum was moderated by Dr. Clinton R. Parker, senior associate vice chan­ cellor of academic affairs. Parker said the loft is losing as much as $4,000 a month. For the 1994-1995 school year the loft lost $22,000. The operating cost for the 1994-1995 school year is just over $100,000.

When the Gaelic people arrived in the United States, the Catholic observance of All Hallows Eve and All Saints Day began. The colonists began the cus­ tom of holding gatherings at the farm­ houses on the night of Oct. 31 and served apples and nuts. These fruits were served because this was the time for them to be ripe. Halloween was often called "Snap Apple Night" or "Nutcrack Night" in pioneer days. They also discovered that American pumpkins were excellent for making jack-o'-lanterns. These carved faces have become traditional for Hal­ loween. It was not until after the great Irish immmigration in the 1840s that Halloween became a nationally observed holiday in the United States. The background for vandalism on the holiday is a result of the belief of the Irish that the "little people" constantly hovered about the homes of the mor­ tals and that they were especially ac­ tive on Halloween. Several reasons exist for Hal­ loween masquerading. One sugges­ tion for this practice came from a me­ dieval custom of celebrating Allhallows. Allhallows Day is on Nov. 1 and is a day dedicated to the memory of the saints. On Allhallow's eve, each church displayed the saint that was its patron in a solemn procession. As churches became more numerous, less saints were available to use as sym­ bols. Because of this, the people mas­ queraded to represent their own pa­ tron saints.

Louise Barth to perform at Appalachian Nov. 15 Dance artist Louise Barth will present "Crones, Dolls and Rag­ ing Beauties" Nov. 15 at 8 p.m. in Ap­ palachian State University's Valborg Theatre. The performance is free and open to the public. Rarth's performance consists of five senti autobiographical dance pieces which explore the experiences of women from childhood to old age. The first piece, "Hearts and Water," uses talking, singing and movement to paint a pictui e of Barth s mother, a dynamic and independent woman. "A Raging Beauty Made Your Bed" presents a day in the life of an artist, mother and wife. "My Only Living Memory" combines words and movement to describe Barth's father, who refuses to recognize his young daughter's exist­ ence in child support court. "Doll Pieces," a dance and puppetry piece, uses two rag doll pup­ pets to explore the role of dolls in a child's life. The last piece, "Crone," ex­ amines the life, fire and energy hid­ den beneath the physical appearance of an old woman. The Atlanta Constitution says Barth has been choreograph­ ing and performing her work since 1980, and has won awards from the Georgia Council for the Arts and Atlanta's Bureau of Cultural Affairs.

Appalachian must give six to nine months notice if they intend to get out of the lease. For this reason, the loft could not be given up until December of 1996. A board member, Dr. Melissa E.

For $18 a night these people have had a place to stay while they learn about the culture and craft only New York City can provide. Last Thursday an open forum was held to discuss whether or not Appalachian should continue to keep the loft. Members of the administration feel that the loft is not being used enough and they are losing too much money, therefore it should be closed and other options should be explored. Some passionate students and fac­ ulty members feel that the loft is too much of an asset to the university to lose. The fact of the matter is that they are both right. The university lost $22,000 supporting the loft last year, and it only drew about 300 people. Knowing that the loft is costing the university alot of money, and considering the fact that it is not used very do tend to be children's books. Ingrid Newkirk, National Director of People for the Ethical Treatment of Animals, has penned a tome entitled "Kids Can Save the Animals! 101 Easy things to Do." On page 41, in a passage urging kids to eschew poultry, the book gives kids the following instructions: "Learn to appreciate chickens and other do­ mestic birds for the wonderful individuals they are.

Send letters to the editor to ASU Box 9025, or via e-mail: HEAPP@conrad. appstate.edu John Lane Managing Editor Surely everyone has heard the phrase, "get a room," and understands its meaning. If not, then you are probably someone, or part of a couple, who is usually the target of the state­ ment. When walking across this campus, it seems that more and more people consider the most populated place, such as Sanford Mall, to be their living room. Public displays of af­ fection (or down right sexual aggression) are on the rise. PDA used to be taboo. A goodnight kiss at your date's door after a night of holding hands was the extent of showing affection for your romantic interest of the time. However, with the coming of the '60s, people began to open up a little, mostly due to the changing moral climate in all things around the world and the free love spirit: "Make love, not war!" Of course, no one except the Beatles said, "Why Don't We Do It In the Road?" yet along with the '70s and the controversial heighten­ ing of casual sex, people began thinking, "If everyone is doing it, why be so guarded?" From the early '80s and into the '90s, using the divorce rate as an indicator, true intimacy and love declined, but the public acceptance of PDAs rose. PDA simply wasn't considered taboo anymore. Why? Not only are PDAs an unsightly addition to the views of passersby, it should also be an embarrassment to the parties involved. Is there a definitive need to invite everyone around to see your most intimate moments? Personally, I'd rather not. Especially in a scenario such as the one I see every day in Sanford Hall. When walking to my class, there is always a couple, arms wrapped around each other tightly enough to impede breathing and faces so close that it is most likely impossible to see each other in fo­ cus. They are giving each other rather explicit kisses in between heavily intimate conversa­ tion such as, "Did you get your homework done last night?" or "Why, yes, I did have a clove of garlic with my lunch." What makes this even worse is that the "conversation" usually ends with, "Be careful... I'll miss you." And, at the end of that exorbitandy long, 50-minute class, they meet again, right outside the class, to do it all again - they must miss each other terribly. When I posed the question to one of my friends who engages regularly in public dis­ plays of aggression, she told me that she had to let her boyfriend know how much she cared for him (emotionally and physically) before they left each other's presence because you never know what will happen to the other when you are apart. I can understand this rea­ soning if your love is getting on a plane to Iraq, but I am fairly certain nothing detrimental will happen to them during the hour (or less) that they sit in a classroom in Sanford Hall, regard­ less of how harsh the teacher may be. Please don't misunderstand me, I think it is wonderful when two people are in love and want to be with each other all the time. It is even easy for me to see that you want to let the world know (if anyone really cares) that you are in love, but your mouth and toungue can work together in a different way than locked to someone else's to let that fact be known. Anymore, kissing is only the most com­ mon form of PDA. Heavy petting is also be­ coming more mainstream. For example, un­ der one of the shade trees by the duck pond is not the place to lay down a blanket and plop down upon one another. Maybe it started out as a nice afternoon nap, but if one thing leads to another, that is the time to hike back to the dorms. Now, I do realize that part of the joy of sex is supposed to be in its spontaneity, but this goes a little too far. I'm sure you can hold off for a few minutes while getting back to your own abode. The main point I want to make here is \L V" that the term once used for a person's love in­ terest was their "private affairs," and they should remain so. Things such as sex (and kissing is a part of it) are more special when shared solely between two people. This is whether you are inviting everyone to watch through a public display or discussing it after j• the fact with your friends - either way it be­ comes public knowledge. Public displays of aggression are not nec­ essary to prove your love, and I venture no one else cares to see how you would do so. A kiss is an intimate thing; share it exclusively with your special someone. The Appalachian is now accepting applications for the positions of news and editorials editors.

The Mona Lisa? Picasso's Blue pe^9 y^dy Warhol? What about the arms, backs and buttocks of celebrities, athletes d musicians? "What's so artistic about that?" lU may ask. Many of these appendages are lomed with a form of artistic expression that U received a revival of late: tattoos. Tattooing has been going on as long as jn has had art to commit to skin. There's en a law in the Bible forbidding the Hebrews )m adorning their flesh with tattoos. Apirently, tattoos have been taboo since their ception. Maybe their permanence turns opie off, maybe it's the pain involved or jybe it's just the cost. Despite the stigma still attached to tattooj, it remains appealing to people of all ages. ie resurgence is high among the young genation. Look around at the exposed parts of e people around you. Tattoos are on the dies of your fellow Mountaineers, kind ader, and some of them are shedding their jthes to show you. Freshman Christine A. Klinker of Hickory is decorated herself with three tattoos, two which she got in Costa Rica. She attributes •tting them to "a rebellious thing. I just ought they were neat," says Klinker. The ices of her tattoos ranged from a $3 do-it- 1 you Students show support for march yourself job to a $50 professional piece of work. Klinker is quite fond of her flesh art. "1 like them and 1 think everybody should have one," says Klinker. "It shows character." Joel R. Parrish, a sophomore from Raleigh, has his arm adorned with a self-inflicted tat­ too. Why get a tattoo, much less do it your­ self? "I just wanted to do it," says Parrish. Apparendy, controlling the needle yourself al­ leviates some of the pain involved. "(The pain) wasn't that bad," says Parrish. "It's kind of like scratching yourself when you have sunburn." Spontaneity seems to be the main moti­ vation people have for getting tattoos. Rich­ ard L. Burleson echoes this sentiment, saying he got his tattoos to seize the moment. Burleson's tattoos, two of which are dragons, reflect his interests. The third, a tribal design, was received on a trip to the southwest United States. "I was 18, in the Navy and stupid. I thought it would be cool," says senior J. Clay Barbour of Raleigh. "It's not as neat as I thought it was when I was 18." However, Barbour says he does not regret getting the tattoo. "I had the foresight to at least get a tattoo where it wouldn't show." Some people avoid spontaneity when de­ ciding on something as permanent as a tat­ too. Senior Richard J. Smith of Pilot Moun­ tain says, "I thought for a long time about the artwork that I was getting on (my arm) and decided that I could live with it there for the rest of my life." Smith's tattooing experience was by no means off the cuff. "I was always into art, ever since I was little. The idea of having art on me and making myself unique has Perrin Avent Reporter always been appealing," says Smith. The thought of having artwork perma­ nently placed on their body scares some people. Freshman James L. Campbell of New Jersey was about to get a tattoo when a thought oc­ curred to him that he didn't like. "It sticks with you forever, and if you get it in more than the three colors that are removable, then you're never getting rid of it," says Campbell. There are plenty of things to think about when getting a tattoo. Keep in mind that it will be with you forever. Not just college, not just the time you spend in a band, not how long you date that guy/girl you're with - it's forever. If you can't take pain, think twice about getting a tattoo. There is a degree of pain involved, but don't trust someone else's estimation, since everyone reacts differently. Make sure there are no serious hazards to your personal health when getting a tattoo. If you choose to get a tattoo, be sure to check the safety and sterility of the artist performing the work. And save your lunch money; some of these beauties cost a pretty penny. ••• ••• • v • . r- I Li. • IM!,1 s 1 • r*!. v i - ' ' - iL Appalachian students bare their body to display their passion for skin art.

(Photos by Ken Larking) Appalachian student focuses in on future ay Barbour atures Editor While most students spend their days fan­ ning about life after college, one Appalaan senior is aggressively pursuing his goal. Jonny D. "Wishbone" Beall, a native of Richmond Va., is slowly chipping away at the wall between him and his dream of being an outdoor pho­ tographer. Beall, who spe­ cializes in what he calls "extreme sports" photo­ graphs, was bitten by the photo bug in high school. Beall "People were telling me I should go h P otography in college, but a lot of people g e t^lere was no money in it," says Beall. eall started out at Lees MacRae with a g scholarship, a sport that still monopoP his photos. "When I came back, some professors and friends urged me to try to sell my photo­ graphs," says Beall. "Alpine Ski Center called me about their 'Ski Season' catalog and that got the ball rolling." Beall says most of his work has come from positive word of mouth. "I haven't really sent many portfolios out. People have heard about my work and contacted me." Making a living selling your photographs Monday, Oct. 16 was a time of medita­ tion and reflection for the almost 50 Afri­ can-American students who attended the candlelight vigil giving tribute to those at the Million Man March in Washington D. C. The March, headed by Nation of Islam leader, Minister Louis Farrakhan, and veteran Civil Rights leader Rev. Benjamin Chavis Jr., received headline attention as black men from the U. S. as well as the world gathered at the nation's capital to take back responsi­ bilities for their lives and their actions in a peaceful assembly of prayer, song and atone­ ment. On Appalachian's campus AfricanAmerican students did the same, as the Black Student Association (BSA) held their own "march" for those students who wanted to recognize it and for those who couldn't at­ tend the march in Washington. BSA President, senior Michelle D. Simmons, said the association did it "for the males who couldn't go and thought there should be something and believed many should show interest." At 6:30 p.m., students congregated at the fountain area on Sanford Mall where BSA chairpersons handed out candles and purple and black ribbons. The black was a sign for the black males and the purple stood for strength. African-American males, amid the glow of candlelight, led the way as the group marched from the fountain area to the Stu­ dent Union where students gathered around tables and expressed their feelings on the march in Washington. Feelings of pride and unity entered the discussions as students expressed how re­ lieved and pleased they were that AfricanAmerican males decided to take a stand for themselves. Many believed the success was attributed to the spirituality they said was possessed by the over 1.5 million marchers that organizers said showed up. "The power of God was just so good," expressed Winston-Salem resident, senior Darrick A. Claiborne, one of the males in at­ tendance for the vigil. Some of the students believed tRe pressure African-Amencan males are under is because of the loss of their spirituality over time. Sophomore Nakia Hardy, of Burlington, expressed her concern in saying, "We need to start praying. It's going to make a difference in your life and the life of those around you." Problems believed to be the focus for the Million Man March weren't all the prob­ lems associated with it. Accusations of sex­ ism were not uncommon to the "March." Since the "March" was aimed primarily at the involvement of black men, some women felt neglected in their role of support. However, that was not the case for some of the African-American women on campus. We've lifted the men up in so many ways. It's not us who need the strength right now," said Junior Kim D. Jones, a Winston-Salem native. see Support page 9 is not easy. "You have to pay your dues," says Beall. This includes working for a number of small pub­ lications. "Stick with it. You may have to start small, but that's what it takes," says Beall. Eventually Beall would like to work for a major magazine like Na­ tional Geographic - "anything to keep me outside," says Beall. jMpl £& I .I!,e t0°k a year off from school and went sir °n "°'e' Wyommg to build a portfolio 10!n^J)^oto8raphs.

(Photo by Clay Barbour) Movie Review Steven Mackay Reporter Now and whenevt Demi Moore is a popular lady. How else can you explain two of her movies opening one week after another? Alas, this otherwise wonderful actress is in an unfortunate rut. Her un-novel drama, "The Scarlet Letter" is an ab­ solute fumble, and the just released comedydrama "Now and Then" (PG-13] is a story about growing up that never quite grows up. "Now and Then" is the story of four life­ long friends who reunite in the present day and take a stroll down memory lane to their budding teen-age years in 1970. It's another one of those hanky movies; women cry into them and men try and hide under them. To be honest, Moore appears on screen for about 10 minutes of the "Now" part, but she does narrate the entire "Then" section. During this flashback, Gaby Hoffman ("Sleep­ less in Seattle") plays the younger Moore. The rest of the cast consists of Christina Ricci ("Casper") as a young Rosie O'Donnell, Thora Birch ("Patriot Games") as a young Melanie Griffith and Asleigh Aston Moore (I don't know her, but she isn't related to Demi) as a young Rita Wilson. Again, the older ac­ tresses appear on screen for only a brief time. The story of the girls' coming of age is horribly cliched. We have the budding femi­ nist (Hoffman), the tomboy (Ricci), the little Miss Prissy (Birch) and the clueless sweetiepie (A. Moore). There's the subplot involving the town freak who turns out to be a swell guy. There's the town murder mystery from long ago that the girls get involved in. There's the local young geek god who turns out to be the husband of the one of the w< there's the unneeded messagefori full of young girls. What is this astounding less aren't always right. Whew!

The Mountaineers managed to outshoot Georgia Southern in both halves but couldn't seem to get one to cross the goal line. Meanwhile, Geor­ gia Southern found themselves with breakaways where they outmanned Appalachian and consequently were able to score two goals. Appalachian could not seem to get these opportu­ nities as Head Coach Tracy Davis ex­ plained, "Georgia Southern had people packed in and really clogging the middle of the field when we had shots on goal, and it just proved too diffi­ cult to score in traffic like that." The Mountaineers were led in shots by Brooke Satterfieldwith seven. Satterfield finished the regular season with a total of 54 shots and seven goals to lead the team in both categories. The time in goal for Appalachian was split between Kelly Guinn and Allison Wahl. The pair combined for three saves bringing their season total to 165. The loss ended the team's regu­ lar season with a 3-15-1 overall mark with an 0-6 record in the conference. The Mountaineers will play next in the Southern Conference Tournament which begins Nov. 3.

Satterfield from Hillsborough, N.C. found a wide open Otis Smith from Imnam, S.C., for a 58-yard touch­ down in the first quarter Saturday and Appalachian never looked back as they defeated UT-Chattanooga 31-18. The 1995-96 Mountaineer football team has rewritten the record books as it now owns a perfect 8-0 record. No other ASU football squad has ever accomplished that feat. "It is a good win over a good football team," said ASU head coach Jerry Moore. "They are the most improved team in the league. I was pleased with the way we our defense played, especially in the second half." Appalachian jumped out to an early 3-0 lead as it took its open­ ing possession and drove 63 yards on 13 plays for the 22-yard field goal by Jay S. Sutton, from Wingate, N.C. The Mountaineer offense spread the ball around well on the drive as six players got their hands on the ball. Following the Smith touchdown catch, Appalachian's defense shined again as Shawn H. Elliot from Camden, S.C., nailed UTC quar­ terback Brian Hampton and knocked the ball away and Jackie L. Avery from Garner, N.C. came up with the recovery for the Apps. Six plays later, Damon L. Scott took it in from the six yard line and put the Mountaineers ahead 17-0. "I think we saw today why they (Appalachian State) are the num­ ber two ranked team in the country," said UTC head coach Buddy Green. "Our players learned a great lesson today of what it takes to be one of the top teams in the country. They do a great job of mixing up their offense and on defense, they just line up and come all out." The Mocs however, did not quit. On ASU's next possession, the UTC defense came up with a turnover of its own. The Mocs took over at midfield and and seven plays later, came up with a nine yard touch­ down grab by Derek Hall. The PAT failed and ASU's lead was cut to 17-6. The Mocs drove again on their next possession, but Marvin Hodge, from Raleigh,came up with an interception for the Mountaineers near midfield. But as time ran out in the quarter, Sutton just missed a 37yard field goal. After the intermission, the Mocs defense came up with another turnover on ASU's first possession, but could not convert. The Mountaineers then drove 92 yards in 11 plays as Scott and Aldwin Lance, from Shallotte, N.C., shared the running duties and combined for 63 of the yards, including the five yard Scott run for the score. Appalachian padded its lead to 24-6. However, UTC was not ready to give up and on its next posses­ sion, it drove 64 yards in just six plays as Moc tailback Tyrone Coleman scored from 13 yards out. The two-point conversion failed and the Apps led 24-12. But on Homecoming Saturday the Mountaineers put an end to any come­ back hopes the Mocs had as on their next possession, ASU drove 49 yards on seven plays. Led by Satterfield, the Apps moved the ball quickly and increased their lead once again, this time on a one yard Satterfield run. ASU then led 31- Scott Saterfield (7) shakes off a defender on the way to his one rustj touchdown in the 31-18 win over UT Chattanooga Saturday (above/,w Defensive Coordinator Ruff in McNeill (front) and linebacker coach I Edwards shout instructions to the Black Saturday defense. The Mountaineers have now won three consecutive Homecoming gam.;" 12 of their last 14. (Photos by Robert Parriott) 12. With the outcome inevitable, the Moc defense recovered another fumble and scored its final points as time ran out. Terrell Owens caught a 30-yard touchdown pass with three seconds re­ maining, but the conversion was no good and ASU held on for the 31-18 victory. Offensively for the Mountaineers, Satterfield had a good passing day with 16-22 for 239 yards and one TD. Scott led the rushing attack with 59 yards on 14 carries and two TD's. Lance also had an outstanding day with 117 yards of total offense, 79 coming from receptions. Smith also had 98 yards on just four grabs. Defensively, the Mountaineers were led again by Dexter W Coakley from Mt. Pleasant, S.C. with 11 stops. Elliot also had a good game with one sack and a forced fumble. On a bad note, senior defensive back Matt B. Stevens from Chapel Hill, N.C., is out for the year af­ ter sustaining a knee injury. The AllAmerican's absence could prove to be damaging for the Mountaineers. "Our defensive linemen are occupy­ ing the offensive lineman and the de­ fensive backs are giving great coverage and it allows the linebackers to go to the ball," added App linebacker Dexter Coakley. Appalachian will look to keep its record perfect as it travels to VMI next Saturday. Game time is set for 1:30. Time to move Trista Talton Reporter Sports Editor Appalachian's gridiron squad suffered a major loss Saturday when senior defensive back Matt B. Stevens suffered a severe knee injury in the third quarter. The Ail-American from Chapel Hill, N.C. is out for the year. Stevens tore both his ante­ rior cruciate ligament and his medial cruciate ligament. "Matt is a locker room guy, he is popular among the players," said ASU Head Coach Jerry Moore. "He is a great leader and he helps out the younger players a lot." Stevens ranks second on ASU's all-time leading interceptions list with 21. Last season he led the Southern Conference and set a new school record with 10. Stevens has been a mainstay in the Appa­ lachian secondary since his freshman year in which he started 10 of12 games. His low tackle numbers this year are a testament to how of­ fenses stay away from his side of the field. He There are two games remaining in soc­ cer season for Appalachian.

Sweet said during the flooding caused by Hurricane Opal, 68 individuals in Watauga and the surrounding counties, including Appalachian students vol­ unteered to help with disaster relief. Sweet stressed the importance of community support. "Every penny we spend comes from donations from Watauga County residents." He also stressed the point that volunteers are always needed. Sweet said in order to volunteer at the American Red Cross one must complete a disaster training course. The next course will be offered on Nov. 18 and no fee will be charged.

(Photo byAngie Brady) Game room proves successful Gia Seagle Reporter W.H. Plemmons Student Union has a new game room on the first floor, behind the Hawksbill Pub, that will soon provide Appala­ chian students with a variety of entertainment. Presently, the game room is more of a pool hall, with nine brand new pool tables and two sitting tables, benches, a bar with chairs, and pool stands, said senior Doris J. Dunn, a supervisor in the new Student Union. She says that the new game room will soon provide arcade and video games, along with a new pool stick rack. "It stays pretty crowded, though," said Dunn. Mark T. Muckler, sophomore and one of the workers at the game room, said that the students like to come in at lunch hours and play. "There is more business at nights and weekends," said Muckler. But more business will be expected after the other games come in. The cost of playing pool for a student and/ or group is $3 an hour, or $1.50 a half hour. "You can have as many people as you want, and it's cheaper than Savannah Joe's," said Muckler. Alcohol and tobacco products are not allowed in the new game room, said Muckler. That is what is different about this game/pool room, compared to the other popular pool bars in Boone, like Savannah Joe's and Murphy's. Trey Hughes, a student, has been to the new game room five or six times since it has opened. "I wish they would bring in a jukebox and chalk for my hands," said Hughes. Dunn said that a sound system and chalk dispenser are also coming soon. The Student Union game room is open Monday through Friday, 9 a.m. to 11 p.m., Saturday through Sunday 1 p.m. to 11 p.m. A student can use his/her student iden­ tification or driver's license to use the pool tables.

The special use permit was granted after final decisions were made regarding the sidewalks, park­ ing spaces, rain water run-off, and noise from trash compactors. The special use permit will allow up to four buildings and a maxi­ mum of approximately 230,000 square feet of building area within the development, said Wayne Herron, planning staff member. The sidewalks and green areas will consist of 195,541 square feet. Tricor has agreed to 4.5 parking spaces per 1,000 square feet, meeting all parldng requirements. Herron also reported that Tricor has agreed to the addition of a crosswalk and sidewalks adjacent to the stores and along the roads. "Our main concern is that the shopping center blend, not dominate the environment," said Herron. Herron also discussed the change in traffic patterns that will re­ sult from the placement of the new shopping center. Cut-through traffic will be discouraged due to a reduction in size of the access next to the Fairvalue store. Sixty percent of that traffic will have to go elsewhere. There will still be three access points Interested in writing news for The Appalachian?

Tricor is willing to leave the op­ tion for the Town of Boone to take the right-of-way from Leola to Highway 321, but the Town is not interested right now. Ranny Phillips, property owner of Greenway Village mobile homes, showed his concern about how the water in the area would be controlled. He is concerned about the flooding and the negative effect the shopping center may have on his prop­ erty. He had a 1955 aerial map with him which he distributed to the board members. He said that in 1955 his property was in the area of highest elevation, but that three of the sides have now increased elevation, putting him in the flood plane area. Herron said that part of the ordinance requirements for the new developments mandated that the wa­ ter distribution be improved. Pipe in­ stallation will channel the water in the stream direction. Joe Looney, the Tricor devel­ oper, addressed the drainage problem by saying that additional lines would be installed, taking the water off to inlets. He said that no underground inlets exist now, but the addition of three to five inlets will allow the wa­ ter to be distributed evenly, which will enhance and control the area with no ponding. "Construction of the shop­ ping center will help the situation of storm water run-off rather than hurt it," said Looney. Herron said that plans re- garding storm water improvements to the existing conditions in and around the shopping center would be submit­ ted at a later date. Phillips said he is also con­ cerned about the dumpsters and the noise and smell they may create. Looney addressed the waste compactor and the appearance of the rear of the store. He explained that there would be a fence that would screen the rear of the store. Waste would be disposed of in a totally con­ tained waste compactor, not an open dumpster. Looney explained that insur­ ance regulations would not allow for the shopping center to have an open incenerator, therefore there should not be any odor or noise problems. Board member Steve Ferguson said that he had been a vic­ tim of a similar occurance with regards to Phillip's situation and asked that Tricor take into consideration the feel­ ings of the residents of the trailor park regarding noise and disturbance. "I'm not exactly sure we should wait until we have a problem to address a problem," Ferguson said. David Paletta, attorney for Boone, agreed with Ferguson, saying that the town noise ordinance is not effective for controlling noise from the compactors and that a better tool could be to use time of operations con­ ditions or requirements. The special use permit was granted under the condition that the trash compactor not be operated be­ tween the hours of 11 p.m. and 7 a.m. Send Letters to the Editor to ASU Box 9025 Boone, NC 28608 Sa e i g t n hn s •Jewelry • Candles • Incense • Officially JjcensedjdSU Glassware • Greek Merchandise • Cards • T-Shirts • Fosters • £ar 'Piercing • 10% Student discount with I.P).

It was founded by brothers, Dauphin Disco and ,ford Barnard Dougherty. The 01 opened its doors Tuesday, Sept. gq to 53students. The school was orarily being housed on the secfloor of an abandoned two-room ture that had been the Boone School. In January 1990, the school noved into two rooms of a buildn a one and a half-acre tract given i B. Dougherty, father of the ,herty brothers. The new Wa[ Academy building was a twostructure with five classrooms, a ry an auditorium, a printing ofand a small room for apparatus. Appalachian State Normal School The training school began as a result of the perseverance of B.B. Doughety. A need was recognized for well-trained teachers in Watauga County and surrounding counties, but the issue of money was there. Dough­ erty, Captain Edward E Lovill and his son William Lovill drafted a bill to es­ tablish a state-supported school in northwestern North Carolina. They succeeded in winning enough support in the Senate for the bill to pass by a majority of one on the last day of the meeting of the General Assembly . The first session of Appala­ chian Training School began Oct. 5, 1903 with a total of 325 students and six teachers: Blanford B. Dougherty, Superintendent, Latin and Pedagogics; Dauphin D. Dougherty, Principal, Mathematics and Science; Maude Har­ ris, English and French; W.M. Francum, History and Geography; Julia Hardin, Primary Department; and Margaret B. Rhea, Music and Art. The General Assembly made the training school into a normal school in 1921 and placed it under the supervision of the State Board of Edu­ cation. The new organization of the school provided for a four-year high school based on graduation from the seventh grade, and a two-year normal school based on graduation from a standard high school. The institution became Ap­ palachian State Normal School by an act of the legislature in 1925. Its cen­ tral purpose was to prepare teachers for the public schools of North Caro­ lina. Appalachian State Teachers College In 1929, the legislature changed the name of the school to Appalachian State Teachers' College. It then became a four-year college. A student could take a two-year Primary or Grammar Grade course of study 234 1929 658 1939 970 1949 1260 1959 2378 1969 6833 1979 10179 1989 Information gathered from University Archives. 371 1919 leading to a "B" North Carolina teach­ ing certificate or a four-year course leading to a Bachelor of Science de­ gree and an "A" teaching certificate in Primary or Grammar Grade Education or in the combined fields of physical education and science. As enrollment increased other majors were approved: english and history in 1933, French in 1934, home ecomics in 1936, library science in 1940, and public school music busi­ ness education in 1946. By 1948, Ap­ palachian offered its own master's de­ gree that prepared graduates for posi­ tions as city and county superinten­ dents of instruction, elementary and high school principals, and county su­ pervisors, high school and elementary teachers, and school librarians.

Abortion, for the most part, is just an easy way out for people who are unwilling to face up to the responsibility of their sexual activity. When two people engage in sex, they are saying "I know what this could pro­ duce, and I accept full responsibility for it." Abortion provides a way for them to enjoy the pleasures of mar­ ried life without the responsibility. When you talk about "a woman's free­ dom of control over her body," God has already given her that, and she ex­ ercised it in having sex. Now that she is pregnant, she wants to escape the consequences. It's just like someone being proven guilty of murder and being set free without a sentence. Also, how can you compare abor­ tion to the capital punishment or us­ ing a flea collar on a dog? For one thing, the felon who is convicted of a capital offense and receives the death penalty deserves it. Also, you are ques­ tioning the sanctity of human life and degrading it by comparing us humans (yourself included) to an insect. Hu­ mans were put on this earth with to­ tal dominion over the rest of the ani­ mals. Whether you like it or not, we have the God-given right to extermi­ nate the lives of beasts of the field. But, as for human life, we have no right to say: "I don't want to bring this child into the world because it isn't Mixed feelings on Nolte convenient for me." When the laws governing our land talk about free­ dom, they are not talking about the freedom of a would-be mother to ter­ minate her pregnancy because she doesn't want it. That freedom refers to the right of every human being to have the same opportunities to make a success out of themselves. The aborted child is robbed of this right. As for the mother whose pregnancy might ruin her career etc., such is the consequence of her action. There is always adoption. But, please let's not deprive an unborn child the chance to live simply because the mother is irre­ sponsible. How can you consider abortion a safe procedure? Safe for who? The unborn baby is killed, the mother has to live with the fact that she is a "Mommy" but will never celebrate that child's birthday or hold him/her when they cry, and the doctot also has to live with the fact that he killed a perfecdy innocent human being. In closing, I would like to chal­ lenge your ideas about freedom. Does freedom really mean the right to be able to terminate a human life, a life that God himself formed in the mother's womb? Freedom is the abil­ ity to live, and to live abundantly. Abortion snuffs out this freedom. Also, let's start taking some responsibility for our actions. Aren't you glad your mother wasn't pro-choice? Kevin B. Hicks ASU Box 13960 To the Editor: I would like to respond to colum­ nist John Nolte. Your last two columns (anti-choice and anti-Pell Grant) call for a definite rebuttal. Your anti-choice rhetoric is ridicu­ lous. You say, "No one is asking women to do anything more than give birth." Listen to yourself. If birth is such a trivial thing to you, then what is wrong with abortion? And what does the father do? Have more un­ protected sex? It's the ultimate twoway street. Abortion is a gray area. Sex is real. It permeates almost every facet of our lives. Just ask your grandchil­ dren whom you felt so eager to distin­ guish as being the "color" of black. If you had to raise them you say you would be "proud." Why be anything but a grandfather? Abortion is not solely a black problem. Most abortions are performed on white women. When all of the anti-choicers agree to adopt eight children each, nurture, support and love them regardless of age, race, color, circumstance - you might then have a case. Perhaps we could make that a condition of any anti-choice legislation. We'll see who's against choice then. Your assessment of the Chinese system is unfair. They were damned To the Editor: Thank You!

Abortion has been accepted by many civilizations for thousands of years as means of population policy and choice. It was fully legal in this country until the mid1800s until we saw the need for la­ borers in our new factories and West­ ern fields.

You are against the Pell Grant and want it eliminated though education is our key to progress. Without education the poverty base will only increase and our tax dollars will only need to support it further. There is a now a legislative war on BORN children, the sick, and the old in this country. The American tax system can easily support the Pell Grant, Medicaid, school lunches, etc.. If you want to fix wrongful and exu­ berant spending, why don't you look at the misappropriation of our tax dol­ lars? Look at your school, your county, and your state for starters. There's a bunch of misappropriation out there. ..-"1.? (File photo) Acts of faith? To the Editor: It is time for me to write to you. The last straw has been drawn, and I see a pig flying high above me in the cloudless sky. What has caused this let­ ter to be written? Just let me fill you in on it. Today, I have finally realized that if I don't speak now, I had better plan on never unleashing my opinion. Re­ ligion. Faith. These are both things that I firmly believe all people need to survive the long and winding road of life. These are also both subjective ide­ als, and perhaps don't belong on Sanford Mall. My education at Appa­ lachian State University is in its third year, and it has taken me this long to take a stand and voice my opinion. In this wide, wonderful world of ours there exist a vast number of religions stretching from Atheism (indeed it is a religion) to Taoism. Somewhere in between there lies a monotheistic re­ ligion called "Christianity." Although most people are able to accept that there are a variety of religions, some find it more vital to portray their reli­ gion in a way that seems to shove it down the throats of non-believers. Today, on Sanford Mall, I witnessed an appalling scene: a certain member of a certain denomination of a Protes­ tant sect of Christianity carried a large sign quoting biblical passages to passersby. As one of those passersby, I felt that it was unnecessary to throw these passages in my face in an attempt to tell me that unless I was of the same faith as this person, I would not be "saved." Even as a Roman Catholic I am able to discern that what is most important in this life on Earth (as com­ pared to whatever one believes hap­ pens after physical death) is that one needs to be a "good" person in the ide­ als of what they believe. This is some­ what primitive in thought, but I only know what I believe. I don't claim to know what is right and wrong, how­ ever I do have values and morals that I stand up for. I don't want someone else telling me what I should and should not believe in. This university is not only nondenominational, but also publicly funded, and I believe it is not a place for any religious group to try to brain­ wash the scholars of Academia. Be­ sides, bribing others to worship by of­ fering free food is a sad, sad way of perpetuating one's faith. Although I feel very strongly about the public dis­ play of religion, or rather denounce­ ment of other religions, I hold these fanatics in high regard for the strength of their convictions, just as I support their First Amendment rights. If they would like me to support their rights, I would appreciate their acknowledg­ ment of my rights—to my own reli­ gious beliefs. If anyone tries to discount my let­ ter by rehashing the social deviance project conducted recently on the mall—save it. That project was car­ ried out as an academic project and neither fits in with this discussion, nor does it stand as someone trying to in­ sult another's religion. As government has become an institution separated by church and state, so should public institutions, such as Appalachian State University. Although 1 am sure that this letter will not be printed because of its content and length, I know that someone at the Appalachian has wit­ nessed its existence. I welcome any back responses because religious dis­ cussion—if academic—is fascinating. Theresa A. Galgoci Box 8367 A few weeks ago a few members of my organization, Sigma Nu Frater­ nity, painted the tunnel that runs be­ neath Rivers Street. Unfortunately, the card scanner for the faculty parking lot got painted along with the tunnel. The next morning a professor got paint on his card while entering the park­ ing lot. The paint then transferred from the card onto his pants. Need­ less to say he wasn't pleased. The students responsible, as well as most people, now view it as an ig­ norant mistake or a not-so-funny prank. However, at the time they didn't grasp the severity of their ac­ tions. Most importantly, it was an act of vandalism that defaced school prop­ erty. It showed very little respect for the school and school property. It was a deliberate violation of state laws and the people could be prosecuted for the act. Further, the actions of a few made our entire organization look bad. No one outside of our organization knows who painted the scanner. As far as everyone outside the organization is concerned, it was all of Sigma Nu's brothers who did it. To many, how­ ever, it goes beyond Sigma Nu. On account of our act, all fraternities and sororities look bad to the faculty, ad­ ministration, and all those outside of the Greek system. It isn't bad enough that we broke the law and made ourselves, as well as all Greeks, look bad, but we also interrupted the day of an innocent professor. We caused damage to his clothing and delayed him in getting to work. What began as a simple prank has become an incident that has caused a lot of damage, to both property and reputations. I apologize on behalf of our organization to both the school and the professor. I hope other orga­ nizations take heed, and individuals realize that they represent far more than themselves. D.J.

Are Greeks not a portion of the Appa­ lachian student body? Does Appala­ chian not receive notoriety if one of the campus chapters receives national honors? With the Greeks making up only about 14% of the student body, The Appalachian can afford its bias report­ ing. This portion of the student body does offer alternatives to life at Appa­ lachian, contributes to community re­ lations, and is considered in student recruitment, therefore, must be con­ continued from page 7 sidered as newsworthy. As far as no­ toriety, you better believe that Appa­ lachian is noticed when one of its Greek organizations receives national honors. Greeks are just "Self-Promoters." "If you have any hot news tips, please contact Tiffany," the "News Briefs" section of The Appalachian reads each Tuesday and Thursday. "We'd love to hear your ideas," the column subtitle exclaims. Believe me when I tell you that Tiffany means to say, "any non-Greek news!" My fraternity recently received national honors and I thought that Appalachian would like to know. So I typed up an article and sent it to Tif­ fany. After two papers had been pub­ lished and my article had not been published, I sought answers. I called Tiffany and she quickly told me that the Appalachian does not publish "Greek self-promotion." She contin­ ued to tell me that i£l wanted to get my NEWS story published that 1 would have to buy an ad. An ad? Tiffany, news is news, even if you don't support the subject. The Appa­ lachian will publish a local group of activists that held a rally and dumped out jugs of milk. The paper will pub­ lish stories about service organizations that did something great. As an even bigger insult, The Appalachian will support certain political parties and back certain SGA bills, but news about the Greeks, NO Way!

This will be held Oct. 26 from 2 p.m. to 4 p.m. in I.G. Greer Auditorium and is open to all Appalachian students, faculty, alumni and staff. Because of recent budgetary and strategic planning considerations, it is feared this meeting may be viewed by some as a referendum on whether the university should maintain a presence in New York. I believe the New York presence is critical to the university mission of providing the best in a liberal arts edu­ cation. Because Appalachian is situ­ receiving a national award. Yes, even non-Greeks would take pride in the fact that Appalachian State has again received national honors. I am proud of Appalachian, and when I wrote my short article about the honor bestowed upon my frater­ nity, I thought The Appalachian would rush to spread the news. I will even admit that I enjoy The Appalachian. The sports section is well done, some of the comics are funny, and local news and events about my school are im­ portant to me. This letter to the editor is an ur­ gent request. Please, please, do away with the biased attitudes of your staff. Print news that the students might be interested in. Your audience is the fac­ ulty and students of this campus. We, as a student body, want to know the goings on at this school. In my opinion, students want to know when a faculty member messes up. We want to know when an ASU club does something fantastic (or hor­ rible) . News about our SGA president, when she does something that will affect our student life. If a student saves a drowning dog, we would be interested in reading about it. When a group marches to save Howards Knob, or a fraternity does something worthy of being called news, we want to hear it. The Appalachian is the students' voice and all Appalachian students should be allowed to contribute to that voice...Even Greeks! . D. Ritch Workman ASU Box 18712 Check the facts ated in a rural setting, the New York Loft and Washington D.C. App House are our gateways to contemporary culture and, as such, are excellent re­ cruitment tools for students and fac­ ulty alike. I have seen students on field trips who have never been more than two states from home whose lives were literally changed by the experience. After witnessing the best in their field, average students become much more motivated and mature in the class­ room and above average students soon excel at their craft. With this presence, Appalachian provides the high culture of New York City as a virtual sister campus. The existence ot the Loft repre­ sents a true vision for the university community. When you talk to parents and prospective students (or faculty candidates) about the pros and cons of coming to Appalachian vs. other schools, the Loft and App House are major selling points. These facilities are the only true things that separate us from everyone else and embody opportunities that have defined us as an educational institution for 20 years.

Do bad grades in a class mean a student is without ent? Certainly not, for we all know the legend of istein's poor academic record. Is the distinction made between people who try hard and people who are unusu­ ally insightful? What role does a student's talent play at a university? Is it possible to graduate with an English degree and be not so good a writer? How much of our time here at the university is spent trying to develop a talent, and how much is spent learning to follow rules, regurgitating lectures, and meeting deadlines? It's not that 1 think the discipline side of Academia is of less importance; I am only trying to show that the complete omission of talent from the grading sys­ tem could prove to make higher education obscure. All things considered, the grading system is fairly lim­ ited. Like I said earlier, it is one of the more abstract sys­ tems of judging quality. Think of a sprinter, who can fairly accurately judge with a time whether he/she is actually doing well, as opposed to tryIBmiUBi inghard? Departments like En­ glish, History, and Philosophy where the answer may not de­ pend solely on empirical infor­ mation make the grading sys­ tem even more abstruse. I would be curious to witness academia before the use of the letter grading system. How to solve this? I'm not sure, given the numerous dif­ ferent factors that enter into the university system. A student who got a "D" because the professor thought he lacked any lyric ability is not any better then the current system, for another professor may think his work genius. Perhaps professor's could write something next to the letter grade: "A-, but mostly boring dribble" or "B+, yet poetic genius." Or maybe not. I will part on a question that I have often wondered about: Does a good grade on a paper make one a good writer, or just a good student? Sure, receiving good marks means a student is good at something, but does it necessarily mean that student has talent in that particular field?

Brewington was able to speak and con­ duct his forum in a manner that displayed ex­ perience and an understanding of the prob­ lems expressed by his audience.

However, we don't need to be reminded we have a problem," says Brewington. African-Americans were urged to take the first step in making Appalachian an institution they can be proud to attend for their contin­ ued growth and learning, and not as a place Figure 9.

No rules, total free­ dom and lots of parties - maybe not. Breaking the rules is not always easy when you have a Resident Assistant (RA) looking over your shoulder. For many students, "out-of-sight, outof mind" is the key to getting around the rules, but RAs have the unenviable job of maintain­ ing order and making sure students are never far from their sight. For many RAs, enforcing the school's poli­ cies is the main aspect of their job. Steven L. Braun, a first year RA says, "I regulate occur­ rence and I have some sort of influence over what the students choose to do or don't do." Although Braun sees himself as a positive influence, some students feel that RAs are worse than their parents. Freshman Patrick L. Raynor, of Kinston, says, "I would like for them to realize that we are in college and not living under mom and dad anymore." Brian J. Hendrix says, "They need to mind their own business." Yet, many students tend to overlook the fact that an RA's job is more than keeping stu­ dents in line. Sophomore A. R. Wilsher feels strongly about his role as an RA. " I like mak­ habitation, hanging of posters on specific ar­ ing my floor a nice place to live by not being eas of the room, and even roommate disagree­ too strict or too lenient," says Wilsher.

Freshman Maggie L. Jones says, "my RA is cool because she doesn't enforce all of the ridiculous rules and uses common sense." Dina M. Jacobs agrees with Jones and says, "My RA is never looking for a reason to write someone up. She simply enforces the policies and doesn't act as an RA corrupted by power." Hendrix says, "the level of annoyance of an RA really changes my opinion of them. They can only go so far to get in the way of what is going on the other side of the door." Freshman Dave Kaminsky of Charlotte says, "A bad RA is one who is always snooping around. A good RA is one who does not care what you do as long as you don't get too loud, yet when you have a problem they can be there for you as a guide." �Page 12 The Appalachian 26 ( HELPing get relief to Bosnia's childrei CD Review Richard Smith ately needed services for refugees.

A good alternative uld be "Official Candidate for Worst lure." Which it is. Page 13 Scarlet doesn't get an A' The main plot-line of the book doesn't appear on screen for 90 eyerolling minutes. We get to see how Hester Prynne (an overly beautiful and not much else Demi Moore) falls in love and has the bastard child of Rev­ erend Arthur Dimmesdale (a brilliant Gary Oldman). The final wretched hour also has nothing to do with the book, except for Arthur and Hester falling back in love. Mr. Prynne (a bored Robert Duvall) does return as Dr. Roger Chillingsworth, to wreak havoc on Dimmesdale's life. In the book, he played a brilliant game of psychologi­ cal torture. Here, he's a rambling lu­ natic who runs around in Indian garb and scalps people. The controversial sin and mortal­ ity factor in the book is not here. Hester and Arthur are under the im­ pression that Mr. Prynne was killed by wild Indians when they commit the socalled adultery. Hester's personal an­ guish is out, but she does get to start a feminist war on the evil religious el­ ders (all men) in her community. Once again, political correctness is the main character in a movie. ' If that's not enough, the follow­ ing things are thrown in to the mix: a witch trial, a mute slave girl, an In­ dian war, rape, murder, explosions, explicit sex, nudity, idiotic narration by Hester's grown daughter Pearl, Sa­ tan, suicide, real life Indian captive and author Mary Rowlandson, plus a happy ending. Hollywood is still under the im­ pression that if it isn't loud and dirty, it isn't good. Hollywood also assumes it can "modernize" classic literature for today's hip audience - a sad miscon­ ception. "The Scarlet Letter" has been philosophized for over a century; now it's nothing but the latest mindless popcorn entertainment to stumble into a movie theater. Today's audience packs as much brain power as folks did 100 years ago. We deserve to be treated so. G^ade: D- [he Appalachian wants to hear from you. Send letters to the editor to ASU box 9025.

The field included no other Southern Conference participants, and displayed an impressive field com­ posed of some big name universities. The Mountaineers three round total was 1035, just 135 strokes away from first place Furman University. Al­ though this may sound rather dismal, the field of 23 proposed some stiff competition. Schools like the Univer­ sity of North Carolina, Wake Forest U., Auburn U., U.of Florida, U. of Miami, Oklahoma U., Florida State U., and Texas A&M U. were just a few of the big names in the tournament. With very large schools such as these, and outstanding golf programs built up at most of them, the Mountaineers may have been overmatched from the be­ ginning. But this did not cause any despair for our Lady Mountianeer golf team. As far as individual performances go, the best one round total by any of the Lady Apps was a rather solid score of 79, shot by Merryll D. McElwain (Kernersville) in the second round and by Erin B. McArthur (UGA) in the first round of play. Merryll D. McElwain . was also the top finisher for the Moun­ taineers, finishing 101st out of 118 spots, and shooting a three round to­ tal of 248. Other individual finishes were as follows: Shannon M. McCart finished 108th with a three round to­ tal of 259, Erin B. McArthur 109th with 260, Meridyth A. Stanley (Ormond Beach) 116th with 271, and finally Karen Meunch 118th with 280. One surprising thing to note is that the Mountaineers best player, Meridyth A. Stanley, finished a dismal 116th. Her support is greatly needed on this Mountaineer golf team, and they need her to score well, especially in the spring, when the tournaments count for the Southern Conference Title. The Lady Mountaineer golf team gets back in action October 28-29 at the College of Charleston Invitational, where they hope to improve their stroke average and their finishing po­ sition. Mens soccer gets conference win David Willis Sports Editor Appalachian State's men's soc­ cer team traveled to Lexington, Va., last Friday to take on VMI and came away with the hard fought 1-0 vic­ tory. Mountaineer Brett C. Harrell took a pass from Sean C. Garnett and beat Keydet goalie John Weeks for the go ahead and eventual win­ ning score. The goal, with 77:12 re­ maining, gave the Mountaineers their ninth win of the year and their fourth in the Southern Conference. The team's record is now 9-7 over­ all and 4-2 in the Southern Confer­ ence. The Apps have their final two regular season games this week, as they travel to Chapel Hill on Wednesday to take on the nation­ ally ranked Tarheels and on Sunday to Greensboro to take on UNCGreensboro.

They would take great joy in knocking off the undefeated No. 2 in the country, giving a boost to their so far disappointing season. "I am very impressed with their personnel, how they look, how they run, and how they handle themselves," added Moore. "We don't expect any­ thing less than a hard-fought, physi­ cal game this week."

The Furman Paladins were lble to beat the Lady Apps last Friday lt Furman by the score of 3-1. Appalachian, which had beaten :urman earlier in the season, came Into the match at Furman, undefeated I uid in first place in the Southern ConI erence. The Lady Apps lost the First game I [5-6, but then bounced back to take I he next one 15-9. After that the Pala1 Jjns proved a little too strong for the Mountaineers, taking the next two d ;ames 15-8 and 15-11. [ate The team was led by Sheri L. Leverette of Lakeland, Fla., in kills with 16, and Hendersonville, N.C., native April L. Sorrells in digs with 10. As a whole, the team registered 58 kills, 42 digs, and three blocks. On Sunday, the team traveled to Georgia Southern to face another Southern Conference foe. This time the Lady Apps made a statement about their resiliency, winning in straight games 15-1,15-1 and 15-2. The team was again led by Leverette in kills, with 14, and Sorrells and Amy V. Kolomechuk from Waynesville, N.C., in digs with seven each. The team will continue their roadswing this week as they travel to East Tennessee on Thursday. The Lady Apps will then have the weekend off before playing at UNC-Greensboro next Monday. App field hockey has bad break yun Kwon eporter Over the fall break, while many \SU students were relaxing, the ASU Field Hockey team played Davis and Elkins on Saturday, Oct 21, however, the Mountaineers lost by the score of D-2, to bring them to a 2-11 record. "Even though we had a great warm-up, we couldn't get things mov­ ing on the field," explained ASU head oach Cathy Burleson. "Davis and llkins has tall players and the ladies layed like they were afraid of them." Davis and Elkins scored both of heir goals in the first half against Apalachian, and although the squad itarted off slow, they tried to adjust in he second half. "We played a better eond half and got the best perforlance by freshman Chanty Layton," mmented Coach Burleson. Chanty ilizabeth Layton, from Yardley, Penn-ylvania, played right wing for the Jason Somerville Reporter The Appalachian State Men's golf team bounced back from their rough start a couple of weeks ago at the Campbell Invitational, to make a strong showing in this past weekend's Radford Invitational. The Mountaineers finished fourth out of the 13 team field, and were the top Southern Conference finishers. The Mountaineer's two round total of 606 was very impres­ sive, and even more impressive was their very strong second round total of 297. ASU finished just 12 strokes away from second place VirginiaBlue U., and only 32 strokes off of tournament winner USC-Aiken. The Mountaineers had three of their members finish in the top 20 in the individual standings, and the en­ tire team finished in the top 38. The most outstanding individual perfor­ mance for ASU came from Drew B. Taylor (Boone), who finished tied for sixth, and was only eight strokes off the lead. Taylor burnt Draper Valley Golf Club for a second round 69, beaten only by Brooks Blackburn's (USC-Aiken) 67, also shot in the sec­ ond round. Taylor's great performance was backed by strong finishes from two other key members of the men's golf team, David H. Goodman (Salisbury) and Jason Smith. Goodman, last spring's stroke average leader fin­ ished 16th, shooting a 75 and a 76 respectively for a two round total of 151. Smith's performance was a mir­ ror of Goodman's in that he also fin­ ished tied for 16th, shooting a 75 and a 76 respectively for a two round to­ tal of 151, as well. The other indi­ vidual finishes for the Mountaineers were Drew DeBrito, who finished 31st by shooting a two round 156, and Brooks R. Turner who finished 38th with a two round total of 157. This performance by the Moun­ taineers, not only showed character by them picking themselves up by the bootstraps because of their last finish, but it also gives them some­ thing to build on. More will be ex­ pected from this team from now on, and whether or not they are up to the challenge is yet to be seen. The ASU Men's golf team swings back into action on November 5 at the Davidson Invitational. The long break should provide valuable prac­ tice time, and the Mountaineers will definitely come out swinging. pasttime loses glimmer Mike Daniels Reporter Sports Commentary So it seems that there is a cham­ pionship going on in one of our major sports. That's right. In case you didn't know, the World Series, America's most time honored championship, is going on right now. Yes, right now. It's funny that you need to inform people of this. There was a time when America really cared about the World Series, the same way it does about the Super Bowl and the NBA Finals. Back then people across the country sat down and watched these baseball games regardless of whether it was their team or not. Kids watched them and dreamed of playing there one day, while fathers and grandfathers re­ membered back when their team won it all. But oh how things have changed. The great baseball strike of 1994 has truly left its ugly mark on this sport. By stealing last year's World Series Mountaineers. Not only did Layton have some good moves, goalkeeper Ingrid Ola Stamberg, a senior from Barnesville, Maryland, played an agressive game with 10 saves total. "1 feel I had an agressive game because I had a lot of one-on-ones," stated Stamberg. During the second "Even though we had half, senior forward Barry a great warm-up, we Elizabeth Clyatt, from Greeneville, Delaware, got couldn't get things injured by a wildly driven moving on the field." ball. -ASU head coach The team will be pre­ paring themselves for their Cathy Burleson. upcoming game against Georgetown this Sunday, Oct 29. "We have the ability to win this Sunday. We just have to make sure that our basics don't let us down," commented Coach Burleson. "Also there will be a lot of parents that will be there to support the team, since a lot of our girls are from Maryland."

And it is a shame because this year's World Series is really a great one. Every game so far has been a one-run game, laced with dramatic home runs and spectacular pitching performances. If you watched Tues­ day night's eleven-inning classic you already know what I'm talking about. It's just that it dosen't matter how good the team's play or how close the series is, people will still refuse to care. Which is not to say that Braves and Indians fans don't care, because they are very much into this series, espe­ cially in Cleveland, where fans have been starving for a winner for decades. But the average baseball fan from say Los Angeles or Philadelphia just dosen't seem to care about this series. The most telling evidence of this was the emptystadium that the Braves and Reds played before in Cincinatti in the National League Championship. Not too long ago these League Champion­ ship Series' were sold out, with scalp­ ers outside the gate charging ridicu­ lous prices. Now the teams themselves can't get rid of these tickets. It's a shame to see this. It troubles the few people still dedicated to base­ ball, mostly those who run the busi­ ness and the game, to look out over empty stadiums and apathetic fans and see just how much damage has been done to this sport. Because the truth is that baseball has stepped down as America's Pastime and its great Fall Classic barely even interests this coun­ try, let alone the entire world.

Mountaineer Ail-American linebacker Dexter W. Coakley (Mt. Pleasant, S.C.) knocked the ball away from Herd tailback Chris Parker, with 6:33 left in the game. App lineman Ja­ son A. Hatcher (Clearwater, Fla.) recovered the fumble. Quarterback Scott F. Satterfield (Hillsborough, N.C.) scored the only touch­ down of the game six plays later to give the Apps a 10-3 win. "Scott Satterfield is one of the gutsiest players I have ever been associated with and our defense played superb," commented ASU head football coach Jerry Moore. "We really were in a classic football game with two aw­ fully fine football teams out there tonight." The first half was a batde of great defenses and missed opportunities, as the two teams battled to a scoreless tie at the intermission. On Marshall's third possession of the game, they drove into Mountaineer territory and into field goal range, but the 45-yard Tim Openlander attempt was blocked by App de­ fensive back Jamie M. Coleman. The junior from Laurinburg, N.C., also recovered the ball and returned it to the Marshall 42, giving ASU its best field position of the game. The Mountaineers, led by Satterfield, moved the ball to the 26-yard line, but the Jay S. Sutton (Wingate, N.C.) 41-yard field goal barely missed wide right. On the next play, Marshall's Chris Parker busted up the middle for 34 yards and into Appalachian territory. Three plays later, Openlander's 48-yard field goal attempt came up quite short and the game remained score­ less. However, Marshall would get the ball back three plays later, as Satterfield was picked off by Herd defender Melvin Cunningham at the Mountaineer 45. On third and 11, freshman QB Chad Pennington completed a 36-yard pass to Tim Martin at the ASU 10, but Appalachian's defense stepped up and held on third and goal. Openlander came on for his third attempt of the night, but missed a short 25-yard chip shot. Both teams had control of the ball two more times before the end of the half, but neither team could mount a drive. This was the first time this season that the Mountaineers have not scored in the first half and the first time since the playoff game against New Hampshire last season. Appalachian was only able to compile 79 yards of total offense in the half, 46 on the ground and 33 in the air. Satterfield led the Mountaineers with 25 yards rushing and was 4-5 with one interception in the half. ASU lead­ ing rusher Damon L. Scott (Cedar Grove, N.C.) was held to 20 yards on 9 rushes. Positively for the Mountaineers, Marshall had not scored, even though posting183 yards of total offense. Southern Conference all-time leading rusher Chris Parker had gained 75 yards on just 10 carries, but the second half would be different. Appalachian opened the second half with posession at their own 20. Satterfield led the Mountaineers down the field with his passing, completing five of six throws for 75 yards and setting up a 22-yard Sutton field goal to break the tie and put App on the board with a 3-0 lead. The Mountaineers held on to that lead through the third quarter as their defense held Marshall to just one first down and only 33 yards in the quarter. The tide would change again, however, and Marshall would tie the game on their first possession of the fourth quarter. The Herd would drive to the Mountaineer 23-yard line and Openlander made sure he did not miss again as he nailed the 41-yard field goal. With 9:34 remaining in the game, the Herd defense held ASU to three and out and looked poised to score again when Coakley collided with Parker and gave Appalachian its final scoring opportunity. Leading 10-3 with just 4:10 remaining, App defensive end Steve J. Carson (Durham, N.C.) sacked Pennington on third and 8 and Pennigton's fourth down prayer fell short. Appalachian took over on downs and would not again relinquish possession as they held on for their second victory at Marhall's new stadium. Appalachian remains the only team to beat Marshall in that stadium in the regular season. "What a great college football game...I can't say enough about how special these (ASU) players are, how they play so hard and battle and accomplish things," added coach Moore. "We did not move the ball well, and we were still able to take advantage of an op­ portunity here and there." The Mountaineers finished the game with 239 yards of total offense, 133 on the ground. Satterfield led the rushing attack with 57 yards on 21 carries and one touchdown and passing W % Mountaineers attempt to change history David Willis Sports Editor Homecoming weekend should be big for the Mountaineers, as they prepare to take on UT-Chattanooga Saturday at Kidd Brewer Sta­ dium. "We know how tough this game will be, because last year UTC was leading at the half and we really had to make some major adjust­ ments and big plays to come back and win at their place," commented ASU head football coach Jerrry Moore. The Mountaineers who have not lost to the Mocs with head coach Jerry Moore at the helm, could be chartering new territory with a win. Appalachian, currently 7-0 and off to its best start since 1954, has never won its first eight in a row. Appalachian heads into the game with a full head of steam, coming off of its tremen­ dous win at Marshall. The offense did not play extremely well, but as always, they played well enough to win. The defensive unit played su­ perbly and had its best team outing of the year. They held the No. 3 team in the country to just three points, on the road. A remarkable feat in itself. Dexter Coakley was named South­ ern Conference Defensive Player-of-the-Week for the second straight week, recording 21stops and one huge forced fumble. "Not only does he have great athletic abil­ ity, but he also enables others on our defense to make great plays," commented Moore. Chattanooga comes into the match-up 34 on the season and fresh off of 35-14 win over Western Carolina. The Mocs ran for 196 yards on 44 carries, led by senior fullback Marrio Grier who rushed for 104 yards on 18 carries and freshman tailback Tyrone Coleman who gained 79 yards on 15 carries. Grier was named Southern Conference Offensive Player-of-the-Week and Coleman received Southern Conference Freshman-of-the-Week honors. "Marrio is one of the best all-around backs in the Southern Conference. Not only is he a tough runner, but he also is a great blocker," commented UTC head coach Buddy Green. "Tyronne has fought off some nagging inju­ ries to become a very solid tailback. He has shown signs the last two weeks of becomming the runner we all thought that he could be." The Mocs should put up a good fight for the Mountaineers, they almost beat Marshall at home this year, barely losing 38-35. Also, they held Western to just 68 yards rushing last see History page 18 with 106 yards on 11-16 completions and just one interception. Aldwin Lance (Shallotte, N.C.) led the App receivers with 63 yards on 5 grabs. Defensively for the Mountaineers it was Coakley once again leading the way with 21 stops, his fourth 20 plus game. "Dexter made big plays time and time again against Marshall. He was all over the field," added Moore. The whole defensive unit had a superb game. They really put forth a team effort and should be commended on their performance. The Apps will host the Moccassins of UTChattanooga this Saturday at 1:00 EM. The Mountaineers will attempt to remain unbeaten on the season during the Homecoming week­ end.

The program is the second oldest in the North Carolina State system, with Bennett College being the oldest. Professor of Interdiscipli­ nary Studies Dr. Margaret H. McFadden said the Women's Studies Program began in the 1975-76 aca­ demic year, when a group of women faculty formed an ad hoc committee. This group of women joined together to persuade people to form the pro­ gram. Interdisplinary studies implemented a minor degree in women's studies in 1979. The pro­ gram did not receive a major until 1991. According to Dr. Melissa E. Barth, director of women's concerns, support for the program has grown a lot in 20 years. Each semester 10 to 12 courses dealing with women's studies are taught around campus, which means 200 to 300 students take a course in women's studies. The program has helped to provide resourses about women for indivduals conducting research projects, said Barth. The Women's Resource Center is a 20-year archive, developed by McFadden. The Cen­ ter contains hard-to-find material pertaining to the interests of women. The Center provides materials that the library can not afford. A graduate student, Cindy see Concerns Page 2 Library prepares for later hours Renee Cagle Staff Writer ion Pennell stant News Editor The way in which mass me­ dia treats women and race issues was the focus of a lecture given by bell hooks on Tuesday night in Farthing Auditorium. hooks (Gloria Watkins) is an associate professor at Yale University and is the author of several highly re­ garded books, such as "Ain't I a Woman: Black Women and Feminism" and "Sisters of the Yam: Black Women and Feminism." hooks said that mass media informs, teaches and molds the ideas of people and they are changed by the images they see in the media. "Mass media maintains the politics of this society," hooks said. She also said image makers in mass media carefully construct images of race and sex. hooks used contemporary movies to show how blacks and women are stereotyped. "" Disclosure' made a mockery of sexual harass­ ment," she said. In her opinion, mov­ ies take important issues which deal with race and women and make them laughable. She also said that mass me­ dia think in terms of white supremacy, and in movies blacks are servants or have insubordinate roles. This prac­ tice reinforces the idea that blacks ex­ ist to take care of white people, she said. The examples she gave were "Lethal Weapon", "The Pelican Brief' and "Passion Fish." hooks also addressed televi­ sion shows that take racism out of real from Radford, Va., entitled "Frame­ work", between Farthing Auditorium and Wey Hall. Suhre said that the sign will be replaced by the gallery. Suhre said he is unsure of the reason for the increase in vandalism incidents. He also said that the instal­ lation of better lighting surrounding the pieces had been discussed, but due to cost, was not pursued. The sculptures are exhibited for one year and are patrolled by the University Police. Each piece is also insured by the university. Other incidents this year in­ clude the theft of a bronzed, human form in late August. Replacement of the bronze figure will cost approxi­ mately $1,000 and will come out of the gallery's budget. The Gallery is offering a $100 award for information about the theft. Another incident earlier this semester resulted in a piece having to be taken off exhibit. According to Suhre, "Seeds of Memory," a piece by Ava Blitz from Bryi: Mawer, Pa., suf­ fered "extensive damage" and is cur­ rently being repaired. "It (vandalism) reflects poorly on us as a university," said Perry Belk Library is working on increasing its operating hours from midnight to 1 a.m. In the spring of 1995, the li­ brary stayed opened late in order to gather data on the number of students who would use the library during that time. According to R. Todd Finch, Student Governemnt Association sena­ tor, he brought the idea for later library hours to SGA. The academic affairs committee sponsored the project and began researching other university li­ braries. SGA presented the idea to library administration, who decided to conduct a one semester experiment last spring to find if there was a defi­ nite need to stay open later. The results showed that a similar amount of students who used the library during 11 p.m. to 12 a.m. also used it from 12 a.m. to 1 a.m., said Mary L. Reichel, university librarian. Reichel said that the next step is to staff the library so it can stay open longer. "We are trying to balance those needs with other needs as far as staff," she said. She said that a high level of staff members must be in the building in case of an emergency because the student staff cannot run the library PPalailiian is published with support from Appalachian's Center for Student I alone. "It involves too much respon­ sibility," Reichel said. Of the 16 state universities in the North Carolina System, Appala­ chian ranks third in having the long­ est library hours. Reichel said she is proud of how long the library is open, considering their number of staff com­ pared to other universities. "I think we should be a leader in the field, instead of trying to fit in the middle," said Finch. Open library hours per week in the UNC System University 1. N.C. State University 2.

If the customer wishes to choose more than one res­ taurant to get food from, $1.50 is added on for each additional restau­ rant. Anderson said the fee is rea­ sonable, especially if a group of friends were ordering. "The biggest crunch is when only one person orders, said Anderson. The person only ordering $3 worth of food may end up paying more than he would prefer, he said. Boone Take-Out Express in­ cludes a broad delivery range. "I go out farther than others," he said. " I don't want to keep them starving!" The service stays busy throughout the week and he says they get a good luncheon crowd from the professionals in town. Anderson said they are busi­ est in bad weather, during big football games on television and during times like when the O.J. Simpson verdict was announced, when nobody wanted to leave their television screen. Anderson said he thinks they will get even more business when it gets colder and nobody wants to go outside or trudge across campus to get a meal. Boone Take-Out Express gives them more of a variety to choose from other than pizza. "It's something dif­ ferent when campus food gets old," he said. Anderson has 10 drivers and three office helpers. "We're all Appa­ lachian people," he said. Anderson lived in Athens, Ga. after graduation and owned a res­ taurant there. He knew several people in Athens with a delivery service.

He said other places, like the Red Onion, have not chosen to use the service yet because they were waiting to see how well the ser­ vice did. "It allows an increase in their sales," said Anderson. "I'm doing a lot of advertising for them and they don't lose any money." In reference to delivering, he said many small businesses cannot af­ ford to pay the insurance of their driv­ ers. He said places like Klondike Cafe already had delivery, but still chose the service. One main reason Klondike liked the service was they did not have to deal with customers on the phone who did not know what they wanted to eat. With this service, his service deals with the customer and then calls or faxes the order to the restaurant. "It makes life easier," said Anderson. Customers can call 265-1611 or fax 265-1196 and pay by cash, check, Visa or Mastercard. Boone Take-Out Express is open MondaySunday from 11 a.m. to 10 p.m. Participating restaurants are: Klondike Cafe, China Chefs, Murphy's, Cottonwood, Tucker's Cafe, Pizza Ranch, Pepperoni's, Charlie Horse, Our Daily Bread, Blues Barbeque, and the Caribbean Cafe. continued from Page 1 life. "TV teaches white audiences that racism and sexism doesn't exist," hooks said. She said that on televi­ sion, whites and blacks live in har­ mony and racism is not a barrier. hooks said that there have been a few movies that show blacks and women to be equal and intelligent, but they don't do well at the box of­ fice. She said the reason for this is that audiences believe the stereotypes of blacks and women, and this is what it is to them. hooks also dealt with the sys­ tem of patriarchy and mass media. This system allows mass media to nor­ malize violence against women. "Patriarchy is fUp the planet," she said. Women are killed and butchered everyday in mass media and it is considered normal, she said. hooks said that these images of woman and blacks have not been challenged and until they are mass media will not change.

Accuracy and Public Service since 1936 .1 =>i Our oginiorL, No policy is the best policy A recent discussion on a policy which would limit faculty-student amorous relationships has sparked a controversy among students, faculty and staff on the Appalachian campus. Due to scandals at the North Carolina School of the Arts and at UNC-Chapel Hill, the chancellors of the 16 schools in the North Carolina system must re search their policies regarding the issue and report back to the Board of Governors. The recommending bodies from Appalachian who will be giving their input to Chancellor Frances T. Borkowski are SGA, faculty senate and staff council. The Appalachian feels the students of this cam­ pus need to be aware of this issue and express their concerns to SGA, who will be representing them in the decision-making process. So far, Darby Weaver, SGA president, said the group feels that the policy now on the books is sufficient. This policy simply states that faculty "are expected to avoid scrupulously any exploitation of students for their personal ad­ vantage and should apprise themselves of state and federal regulations governing such matters as sexual harassment...." However, SGA does feel the same policy needs to be extended to include staff. Catherine L. Wilkinson of the faculty senate, how­ ever, feels the policy is inadequate. Wilkinson says that faculty senate agrees any relationship between a faculty member and a student in his class or an assistant should be banned, but is unsure of what to do when the case involves a faculty member and any student on campus. The obvious policy is one of non-involvement. The university should not dictate relationships which have nothing to do with the classroom. As long as the relationship is a consensual one, the university should not interfere. We are all adults, here- ex­ cept, of course, in the rare instance of a minor at­ tending college, which is a whole legal matter in it­ self. Obviously, the professors students would be most interested in dating would be those in (their academic field since those would be the people theywould have the most in common with. Therefore, it is natural to assume there would be some times when a student would need to take a class with a professor he or she is dating. The only time a relationship with a professor could ever become a problem is if a student needed to take a class with a professor he or she was already involved with. In this instance, we may see a funda­ mental flaw with our university. If there is only one professor teaching a class and the student has to have that class to finish his major, a problem occurs. Per­ haps it is wrong to have only one professor available to teach a certain class, though. The chancellor must make his recommendation to the Board of Governors on Oct. 31. The Appala­ chian urges students to let the SGA know that poli­ cies regarding our relationships are unnecessary. Stu­ dents involved with faculty or staff members who do not wield any classroom power over them should be left to their own choices. And by this time in their lives, if a student cannot see when someone is using their power over them and get out of the relation ship, perhaps they deserve what they get.

Angela Brady Editor-in-Chief John Lane Managing Editor Ken Larking Editorials Editor Warning: The following column will ig­ nore everything I have ever learned about po­ litical correctness. This article will be replete with sweeping generalizations. Have you noticed, as I have, that today's typical non-conformists have created their own kind of conformity? They strive valiantly to be so different that they all end up looking the same, acting the same, and believing in the same causes. Ironically, in their quest for individuality, they have become what they loathe. Let me paint a picture of the typical '90s hippie. The male hippie often has long hair (on his face or the top of his head), is wearing Birkenstock's or goes bare-foot. He is usually found wearing a tie-dye t-shirt and extremely dirty jeans. A "mean people suck" button is often attached to his expensive hip-pack. He reeks of patchouli. And he gets around in a Volkswagen Bus. 1 he female version also has long hair (on her legs, under-arms and top of her head). She wears combat boots, corduroy pants under­ neath a skirt, a shirt resembling a short apron and no bra. She uses an expensive hip-pack with a "make love, not war" button attached to it. She reeks of patchouli. And she drives a late model Honda Accord. The typical '90s hippie can often be found in Sanford Mall kicking a hacky-sack, tossing a Frisbee, toting a dog, giving another hippie a hair wrap, or hanging around some longbearded fellow who is strumming a guitar. They believe in free-mind, free-love, and free-weed. They also believe in sharing their Dull teachers, dull class 'Stagnant instructors keep learning to a minimum Jason Wilkinson Assistant Editorials Editor Since coming here in the fall of '92, I have had two distinct experiences. Professors I love, and professors that I don't. Sure, this is not an exclusive experience, most everyone has had professors from both the good and dark side of academia. But the fact that everyone has experi­ enced it just makes it that much more of a pertinent issue. Perhaps I should draw some easily identifiable lines, given the fact that the terms "good" and "bad" are subjective. I'll start with "bad". By "bad", I don't mean evil (though I am not ruling this out) but a professor whose class would fall just under a nature special on snail slime on my list of fun stuff. A professor caught in a rut of never-ending lecture. School work is like comedy. Just as it takes new things to make us laugh, so must professors occasionally try differ­ ent things to help us learn. And most do. I imagine even the dullest of pro­ fessors started out with good inten­ tions. I also imagine it is easy to get caught in a rut, and professors who teach the same course year after year are more likely to get pulled in some kind of black hole of teaching, where nothing interesting can ever escape again. I urge professors who are forced to teach the same classes to at least break it up with a new class from time to time. As for departments that won't do this, I say "feh" to you, for it is this rut of same classes that gives a professor so much information on a particular subject that he doesn't need any help taking up class time, the need for student chatter is eliminated. (When I use "he" it means he/she, but he/she sounds like a sneeze and I won't use it.) Sure, even the dull professor probably intends to let the class talk, but then realizes there is just far too little time to get across all the information he had on the subject, and how lucky the students are that he knows so much. Little scientific fact here for you folks, if students don't get to talk, you can divide what they will learn by some­ thing like 64. It was once said that the only reason anyone listens to someone talk is because they know it is their turn next. Alas, the good professor. Just to kill any idea about grades being directly related to "good", let it be shown that I have gotten poor grades from great professors (wacky freshman year). Professors who trust students enough to let them get involved, these are the ones I recommend to my friends. The ones where you actually feel guilty when you miss class. Professors who will say "hello" in the halls are the folks you don't think twice about asking a ques­ tion. So how do we prevent this situation of hapless stu­ dents who get caught in dull classes, either because they have to take the class, or weren't able to realize their folly in time. I've thought about some kind of marking, like in ninja movies. The dull professors would be in some kind of clan, and would have perma­ nent red marks on their forearms. The only problem is they would probably wear long sleeve shirts until after the drop/add period. 1 nave aiso no.iced hr ,v some departments come up with classes I have never seen before and do so most every semester. I don't know how this works, but it seems like they let the professors teach what interests them, taking an angle on a body of work that relates to the de­ partment. When I have taken classes like this the profes­ sor seems to have a personal stake in the class, perhaps because it may have been his idea. Over all, I have been very impressed with the univer­ sity. I realize it is a wonderful institution, but for profes­ sors, an institution none the less. And institutions can in­ stitutionalize, and institutionalization is dull. Professors could easily get frustrated with the university, and frustra­ tion can often lead to situations where professors turn dullish. The fault may only barely be their own. So, I challenge professors to trust students and try new things. And if not this, then tattoo their forearms red. Sure, even the dull professor probably intends to let the class talk, but then realizes there is just far too little time to get across all the information he had on the subject, and how lucky the students are that he knows so much.

The "90s hippies, in their attempt to be like their '60s predecessor, often fail to see what separates them from their prototypes. In the '60s, hippies banded together to fight for a cause. They created their own sub-culture. The '90s hippies, however, are often found banding together in search of a cause. They did not create their own sub­ culture, they merely replicated the '60s sub­ culture. Maybe they did not realize that the '60s sub-culture died when Diana Ross be came famous. When the modern day hippie latches onto a cause they become extremely radical about it. They often do irrational things in the name of whatever cause they are fight­ ing for at the time. It is true that their radical behavior is sometimes beneficial. Everyone knows, or should know, that recycling is good, that peace is better than war, and that houses with septic tanks shouldn't be built into the side of a mountain, where a community's water­ shed lies. If it weren't for these radical hip­ pies constantly bombarding the public with their views, one could easily assume that re­ cycling wouldn't be so prevalent today. Also, if it weren't for the hippies who chained them­ selves to the trees on Howard's Knob, Knob developer, Monty Green, might be surveying more than his own driveway right now. The fact of the mater is that today's hip­ pie is no better at being an individual than the fraternity/sorority members, or the ath­ letes. All of these groups are cliques. They hang out together, dress the same, act the same, and believe in the same things. Everyone has the right to associate with whomever they choose, be it the hippies, the frat-boys, or the jocks. Maybe the hippies of today will realize this instead of condemn­ ing other cliques for their so-called lack of individuality. In the '90s, hippie is just short for hypocrite. <*11 S4e<xtA ervyAei",'/ ~|uc; he iver Righteous doeso; always equal rig! epr 'Tot tuft an ow aniii Clay Barbour Features Editor Every year students pile into the ivory hai academia in search of the answers to the mystr the universe - or do they?

I also feel that if you have ithtng better to write about in your iwspaper, then, perhaps you are no are sympathetic than the residents Bowie Hall, whom you so hastily mean. Before you so boldly make the asmption that Bowie Hall is the "Pil• of Apathy," perhaps you should take e time to talk to some of the resints of Bowie Hall and ask them why ey do not have a representative. If u had taken the time to ask this estion, you may have come across »fact that most residents did not En know that they did not have a jresentative. We are students, first election, because I did not support any of the candidates. Instead of choos­ ing the lesser of three evils, I chose not to vote. How do you know that wasn't why everyone else didn't vote? Maybe you just have apathetic friends and you think they are somehow in­ dicative of all Appalachian students. Thankfully, they are not. Regardless of what you based your assumptions on, 1 know students who are very involved and 1 also know students who may as well be "in a coma." While I don't know their per­ sonal reasons for acting like they do, I do know that they do what they do because they want to. How can you, as "Editorials Editor," not recognize how self-serving it sounds to everyone else when you rail against people get­ ting "involved?" Furthermore, you may think that someone is involved only if they vote, but I think your defi­ nition is incredibly narrow. Take a look at the front page of the same edition your column appeared in: "Student Attendance Up at Cultural Affairs Events." I use this example only to show that involvement is in the eye of the beholder. Ken, I know that your intentions are good and you only want more people to become "involved" in the ways you write about. I also know, however, that many students work, study, play, and do many, many other things that are more important to them than the things you espouse in your column. Who are you, who is anybody, to say we are wrong? and foremost. We pay good money to take classes at this institution. I real­ ize that we must also be citizens of this college community, but we must make sure we are academically stable before engaging in such extracurricular activi­ ties as student government. You must also realize that most of the residents of Bowie Hall are freshmen and trans­ fers and we are not particularly allknowing when it comes to what is go­ ing on around campus. I do not place the blame for our lack of information on the administra­ tion of the building, because many of our RA's were not even informed of the elections. I do however hold the media responsible for encouraging and promoting such activities as voting for student government. If we, the resi­ dents of Bowie Hall had been informed by the media, be it posters, signs, etc. then believe me that we would most definitely have spared a few moments of our time. I would also like to inform you that while you were busy focusing on Bowie Hall's apathy in SGA, you failed to see that the sixth floor of Bowie is already planning an escort service for females who need to walk back to their dorms at night, and we plan to have a trick or treat event for elementary stu­ dents on Halloween. So, next time, before you decide to write an editorial in which you call anyone apathetic, please find out all of the facts. I have responded to your challenge and would like to thank you for informing us of the fact that we did not have a representative in SGA, and I assure you that we will take the time to elect an official now that we have been informed by the media.

This year, nothing. Well sir, Bowie Dorm is my home, and I'll be happy to represent it in SGA. Come by the SGA office Friday (Oct. 6) morning. Hopefully you'll see me. When the office opens, I'll be there ready to get my application and my 100 signatures. Hope to see you at an SGA meeting. Vincent A. Esposito ASU Box 15135 Student Senate.

Perhaps, in the future, a less apathetic approach to the Student Senate by The Appalachian may just display to the students that there is a positive way to become involved.

SGA must receive parking spaces on campus, because I assume that parking isn't an SGA problem. Ken Larking, your article made about as much sense as a solar-pow­ ered flashlight! SGA is a pillar in the community of ASU. I would like to be able to say the same about the school's newspaper. I feel that an apology is in order to the residents of Bowie. If anything, the plaque outside Bowie should read " Ken Larking, Enter At Your Own Risk." I don't think you have a Pulitzer prize coming your way any­ time soon. Next time, come tell the residents of Bowie how you feel to­ ward them instead of hiding behind your precious editorial! James A. Hall III ASU Box 16254 Down for the count To the Editor: 1 would like to address Mr. Wilkinson's article in the Sept. 28 edi­ tion of the Appalachian entitled, "Why preachers resemble pro wres­ tlers." I must admit it was quite an interesting piece of work, however, I cannot totally agree. First of all, your title addresses "preachers" while your opening sen­ tence refers to "televangelism." Those two are not one and the same, so from the very beginning it is incor­ rect. You refer to Satan as the "bad guy" who is "most often depicted as really aggressive." I would argue against that point Mr. Wilkinson. Sa­ tan is the most subtle and peaceful "bad guy" we could ever imagine. How else would evil slowly creep into society without any opposition? Sa­ tan is a deceiver and succeeds not with the mass murderers and rapists only - he is most effective with socalled "good guys" - the ones who compromise what is right and still see themselves as moral. Wilkinson said, "Pro-wrestling, like religion and evangelism, has dif­ ferent sects." Mr. Wilkinson, religion and evangelism are not the same. Evangelism has no sect. Evan­ gelism is reaching out and sharing what you believe. And while I am on the subject, I am a Christian, not because of what church I go to or what sect I belong to, but because I have a relationship with God. Though it pains me and frus­ trates me, I must agree with you on one point. Too many "religious" people feel when they are "out of the ring" that the rules no longer apply. That is the absolute truth. So many "Christians" believe that attending church appeases God and that the rest of the week is there for them­ selves. It's a shame that those people are the examples used for your ar­ ticle, and not the true Christians that act upon what they believe. You see, I believe in the word of God. The difference be­ tween most people and me is this: I have taken the time to look in God's word. I challenge you to do the same. Scott A. Morrison ASU Box 13903 Are comedians holding hostages? To the Editor: It must have been horrible for Mr. Bunting! (Letter to the editor, Oct. 5) When he went to the Comic Strip Live performance, he appar­ ently was incredibly offended and angered by the headliners' act, and my heart goes out to him. However, I do have one ques­ tion: What type of gun was Bill Graber holding to Mr. Bunting's head, forcing him to stay and listen? (Since I was not in attendance, this is the only conclusion I could come to. Personally, I have never been in a situation where if I was for any rea­ son offended or angered by another person's behavior, I could not simply choose to leave.) For if Mr. Graber didn't have a gun, surely Mr. Bunting would have left. I'm certain he would have spared himself such a horren­ dous experience, given the option. So Bill Graber, wherever you are: STOP THE VIOLENCE!! Let those who do not care for your act leave whenever they choose! Please quit holding unsuspecting college students hostage! And a word of advice to Mr. Bunting: next time you go out, make sure you find a seat very close to the doors, so that you can make a clean escape at the first sign of offensive behavior. Don't let yourself be vic­ timized again. Dana E. Lang ASU Box 7779 that one day, I will be paying it back in taxes. I know that I am using these funds for the purpose of bettering myself. I understand your opinion on those that do not, but do not knock those that you do not see until you have walked in their shoes. My wife and I are not in an "Oprah coma," but just the opposite. We do not have time to watch the tube because of the time we spend work­ ing, going to classes, raising our son, and coming home to study into the late evening and sometimes into the early morning hours. I do feel that the beauracrats could regulate the welfare programs better and not allow welfare funds to be sucked up by those who wish to do nothing to better them­ selves. Mr. Nolte, get a grip and realize that there are exceptions to every situ­ ation and I hope that one day you, as well as others, will be a little more compassionate towards those less for­ tunate than yourself. high school, I worked hard to keep my grades up, in hopes of attending a four year school. I knew money would be tight, but I thought my parents could help, and I thought I would get some financial aid. Luckily, I did. I got a Pell Grant. But I also got $2,500 in loans. By the time I get out of college, I will owe the government $10,000, or maybe more. I'm also involved in the workstudy program. This is all good. I am getting my education, which is what I always wanted. I couldn't afford to go to college without the Pell Grant. My father is out of work, because the place he worked had layoffs, and mother is a secretary at a local elementary school. It makes me angry that John Nolte as­ sumed that all of the Pell Grant stu­ dents do not work, nor their parents. Is it a crime to be poor and need money to get an education? I have never been on welfare. But without the money 1 received, I would be back in my hometown, working in a factory. That is not a bad job, but I knew I could do more. According to your percentage chart, 16.3 percent of students re­ ceived the Pell Grant. I believe that all of the students who received it are deserving. They deserve the chance to go to college. Don't take away a program that is helping society. Cut defense spending, or some other wasteful program. Just don't hurt the students who need a chance in this world. I earned the chance to come to college. I deserve it. My major is political science, and if I ever achieve my dream of being in the U.S. govern­ ment, I plan to keep education first. Without educated young people, the world will never survive. To the Editor: McClain Watson ASU Box 10841 This is a response to the article titled "Eliminate the Pell Grant" by John Nolte in the Oct. 3 paper. I re­ spect Mr. Nolte's right to an opinion, but definitely do not agree with it. Mr. Nolte seems to have attached a nega­ tive stigma to the term "welfare," as many others have as well, I am sure. Welfare, while having its shortcom­ ings, allows the poor, under-privileged, working and non-working class alike to keep their heads above water (just barely), while trying to better them­ selves or just scratch out a meager liv­ ing for themselves. I have broken my back working two jobs at one time just to make ends meet just like you Mr. Nolte. I have even held three different jobs at once just so I could earn enough money to move to Boone and attend Appala­ chian. I am proud to say that I accept Pell Grant funds as well as any other aid I can receive in order to better my life and the lives of my wife and twoyear-old son. My spouse attends Caldwell Community College that is funded by the Employment Security Agency, Social Services, Student Loans, and the Pell Grant. You see Mr. Nolte, my wife has a hearing disabil­ ity and if it were not for these funds, she would not be able to take advan­ tage of the opportunity to attend school and better her life. I, nor my spouse, have any shame in either ac­ cepting or using these funds to sup­ port ourselves while attending school. I work full-time while attending Ap­ palachian full-time, and if it was not for these so called "welfare-like" hand­ outs, neither my spouse or I would be able to attend school. We would still be working for mediocre wages with no future hope for a better life. So, Mr. Nolte, you might want to open your mind and see others' per­ spectives from their viewpoints widhout condemning them for accept­ ing aid that they have been paying taxes for just like yourself. I person­ ally feel that I have earned the Pell Grant funds I receive: therefore, I will accept them proudly along with any other type of aid I can get, knowing ceiver of a Pell Grant. No one can tell me that I am giv­ ing in and accepting welfare, that I am not working to pay my tuition myself. When I graduate I will owe many thou­ sands of dollars to the system. It hurts when people look down on you be­ cause you need financial aid. I look around at students who have beauti­ ful cars, gas cards, credit cards, extra spending money, a fully-paid tuition— all free to them. I do not have such things. I scrounge about with the money I have from working hard all week, while also going to school, to pay electric bills, rent, tuition. I work hard while others are off having fun. Yet, I am happy because I have my foot in a door I thought I would never be strong enough to open, and no one is ever taking this chance away from me. Think again when you consider taking away someone's chance at an education. Your tuition may be fully paid, however, I bet a financial aid receiver's education is more tully ap­ preciated. I've never been inspired to write anything to the newspaper, however, after reading the editorial titled "Elimi­ nate the Pell Grant," I was enraged to the point where I had to speak up. I am a Pell Grant receiver. I do not believe that anyone has the right to say that I am accepting welfare. I am one of the first people in my fam­ ily to go to college. Both of my par­ ents have only made it through high school. They, however, do not look to the government for assistance. They both work very hard to provide for their family. When it came time for me to go to school there was not enough money to pay for the expected tuition. My parents did all they could, but still there was no way that they could meet my tuition needs. 1 was not going to give up though. I was going to school no matter what. Currently I'm enrolled in my sec­ ond year here at Appalachian. I now have five loans, work two jobs (one of which is work study), have had vari­ ous scholarships, my parents are pay­ ing on a loan, and I am a proud re­ To the Editor: I am writing in response to John Nolte's article, "Eliminate the Pell Grant," in the Oct. 3 edition of the Appalachian. I do not think that all the views were considered when this article was written. According to the article, 16.3 percent of Appalachian students receive a Pell Grant. I am included in this percentage. If the Pell Grant was eliminated, I would not be able to go to college. Just think of how many other people would be affected in the same way. The grant is some­ times the only way that certain people can attend college. If they could not go, what kind of jobs would they get? Certainly not the kinds of jobs that can support a family. An example of this situation is my mother. She is 39 years old, divorced, and has four children. She passed up the opportunity to go to college so she To the Editor: I am writing in response to the editorial by John Nolte entitled "Elimi­ nate the Pell Grant." 1 believe that Mr. Nolte should do a little more investi­ gating and find out how much his edu­ cation would cost without any aid Edward A.

The only place she could find a job was at a gas station. Now she has decided to go to nursing school to make a better life for herself and my brother and sisters. The only way she can go is on a full Pell Grant. Now tell me, where is the shame in that? People need to realize that not all people on welfare are drunks or single mothers glued to Oprah. My mother, like a lot of other people receiving grants to go to school, is hard-work­ ing, trustworthy, and dependable. She only wants a better life and having a Pell Grant is her first step in climbing her ladder to success. Jenny R. Mooneyhan ASU Box 05729 from the government.

Autumn has arrived. As fall arrives, so does the recreation that comes along with it. This season raises a burn­ ing desire to be a part of all fall has to offer. And it has so much to offer. The weather is perfect (it does get perfect in Boone this time of year), and you find your­ self soaking up the beautiful atmosphere as quickly as you can before the cruel winter winds pick up. There is so much to do and so little time. This creates a dilemma for students. After all, this is the time when professors test us on material we were supposed to have been learn­ ing since August. Do you study or do you play? Finding a happy medium between the two can be both taxing and satisfying. According to Julie D. Alexander, a sophomore from Can­ outside and soak up some sun,"says Alexander. While many students make valiant attempts to keep priorities in order, many often fall short. Sophomore David M. Gay of Mt. Pleasant, S.C. enjoys mountain biking during this time of the year. "This time of year is the best time to be out on the trails. My books usually end up second," says Gay. Often the weather is not the only thing that keeps students from their studies. This time of year finds college football in some of its most exciting stages. "When Florida State is on tele­ vision you won't find me doing any studying," says Clinton K. Bowman, a junior from Hickory. Whether it be football, biking or simply getting out in the woods and breathing in the cool air, autumn requires students to take a look at what is most important. Sometimes that turns out to be the match­ up between Georgia and Clemson, and some­ times it may be a history mid-term. Discover­ ing what will have a greater effect in the long run may be the deciding factor. Senior Matthew C. Ferebee of Hickory says, "As the leaves start changing, I find myself in the library more than on my bike." Whatever it is you like to do during this gorgeous season, finding a happy medium may be the most beneficial and satisfying thing to ton, Ohio, "When the weather is beautiful, I find it hard to force myself to study."

The most hers 0f notable line is "the underground is over­ crowded" from the song "Greatest of All Time." A statement? I wonder. It's definitely a great song. The blends of "1985" and "Fabricoh" emerge from fogs of noise into infectious, fullon rockers. "Underachieves March and Fight Song" is an anthem all the way. It even has the horns. My pick from the album is the pastoral sounding "Death in the Park." Mood, mood, eporter When you think about Leonardo da inci, Benjamin Franklin and George Bernard haw, the connection between them usually mcerns their achievements. However, all iree were also vegetarians, a lifestyle that is tcoming popular among many students at ppalachian. In keeping with this trend, many places l campus are providing meals for vegetarn students trying to maintain their meatss diet. Penny M. Godbold, who has been a :getarian for the past five years says, "I think is great that they recognize the fact that udents are becoming more health conious." The Market, Park Place Cafe, The Lite de, and Cascades all offer menus with a vegarian twist that addresses this growing inrest. Sophomore Rachel A. Figura says, he vegetarian meals are adequate." While there are many reasons students ve for adopting a vegetarian lifestyle, some the most common deal with animal rights, •alth issues and factory farming. Albert srt" V Wray says, "I became a vegetarian an attempt to remove myself from the anufacturing cycle." Unlike Wray, who consciously decided to come a vegetarian, some students, like -shman Jennifer C. Stender, have been ised as vegetarians. "My stomach has adsted to a meatless diet and the thought of ting meat just doesn't appeal to me," says ender. Figura has also been a vegetarian r most of her life and says, "I don't con­ fer meat to be food. For me, my lifestyle is jural." • Often vegetarians wonder how they ever ' meat to begin with. "It just became too weird to eat meat; it became physically im­ possible," says Wray. Some students would prefer to grow their own organic crops, but due to money and time, it is impractical. For Leah C. Safir and Mark E. Evangelist, the exploitation of animals and the "destruc­ tion of mass amounts of land" were the major issues that caused them to turn vegetarian. "(Eating animals) seems very cruel to me,"says Safir. As Godbold began to learn more about her vegetarian diet, she found more and more reasons for being a vegetarian. The animal rights issues were her initial reasoning, but the more she learned about the environment and personal health, the more being a vegetarian seemed to make sense. Many students describe how being a veg­ etarian has helped them understand the world around them. For Wray, the end result has given him "an increased respect for other ani­ mals, humans and the earth. It has helped me gain spiritual peace within myself and my meals are now part of a spiritual program." Both Wray and Kristopher A. Kuhn are con­ cerned with the idea that when eating we are not focusing enough on the food on our plate. Kuhn says, "We are disrupting life. We need to liberate human beings from animals." For students who are vegetarian, Bare Essentials, a health and nutrition store, offers many organic grains, rices and produces at decent prices. Some of these items are even produced by local farmers. Many students seem to agree that the food services on campus accommodates them with more vegetarian options than other campuses. So, on campus and off, the Boone area offers many vegetarian choices for its people. Bare Essentials even offers food for your cat. That's right. Bare Essentials offers all natural cat food with no preservatives or chemicals for those who do not want their cats addicted to the unnatural commercial brand.

The past few years have seen a trea­ sure trove of danceable, yet sexually explicit songs flood the market. Everyone from Ma­ donna to Nine Inch Nails to Pantera have got­ ten in on what seems to be a hot commodity in the music world. Now, even poets are getting in on the act. Erotic poet Erica Jong has lent her works to vocalist Vanessa Daou for the latter's album, Zipless. The album contains poems by Jong from 1970 to the present, as well as music written by Daou and performed by her hus­ band. The music is undeniably the force that drives the erotica on this album. A slight jazz feel flows throughout, with a touch of dance rhythm reminiscent of Enigma. The lyrics, to their credit, are not over­ wrought with blatant sexual innuendo. The poet chooses more subtle ways to convey the feel of sexuality in her works. In fact, the al­ bum does not merit the warning label stuck to its cover. Its four letter words are few and far between. Most of the songs on the album don't even deal with sex, but rather, present other situations (metaphors, perhaps?) from a woman's point of view. Still, the voluptuous Daou delivers even the most pastoral lyric in a tone so sultry that the listener is convinced she's singing about her sexual escapades. The bottom line is this wasn't a bad al­ bum. It didn't come across as another lame attempt to cash in on the collective hormone of America. It did, however, charge the glands just enough to create a suitable mood tor love. It's a shame Faith No More had an EP called "Songs to Make Love To;" it would have been a great subtitle for "Zipless." We are happy to receive letters to the editor.

Here, the man in hot water is Ezekial "Easy" Rawlins, the center of the crime drama "Devil in a Blue Dress" (Rated "R"). Besides, this movie takes place in 1948, before the Simpson trial. Yes, chil­ dren, there was a time when we didn't know who Lance Ito was - a very long time ago. Easy (played by Denzel Washington) needs to pay the rent on his new house. His G.I. bill is running out and he's just been fired from his job at the airport. When an obviously crooked hood named Albright (Tom Sizemore) offers Easy a quickie job, our hero takes it. Big mistake. For $100, Easy has to locate a missing white woman named Daphne (Jennifer Beals), who likes to hang out in black bars. Daphne always wears a blue dress, hence the tide of the film. The job sounds easy enough, but it's not. Soon, Easy is in the middle of numerous murders and massive corruption that points to city hall and the mayoral elec­ tion race. CLUB PRESIDENTS: Luncheon Buffet Watauga YillagcMiopping Center (Across from llolidav Inn I Blowing Hoik Kd*Hoone, NC Reporter Based on a novel by Walter Mosley, "Devil" has been compared to the 1974 film noir classic "Chinatown." I've seen "Chinatown" and I loved it, but this is no "Chinatown." Still, "Devil" is quite good. Screenwriter and director Carl Franklin ("One False Move") paints an intriguing tale of life in post-war Los Angeles. Unfortunately, Franklin doesn't go far enough. In the film there is no real sense of utter danger or death. These things were in abundance in "Chinatown." Instead, Franklin centers on the slow intrusion of crime in the peaceful neighborhoods of South Central L. A. The com­ munity of yesteryear has turned tragically into the 'hood of today; a great lesson that gets overly preachy at times. The man who walks away with "Devil" is surprisingly not the usually superb Wash­ ington. As Eas/s best friend and complete nutcase "Mouse," Don Cheadle (from "Picket Fences") is brilliant. Like Joe Pesci's infamous psychokiller in "Goodfellas," Mouse takes great pride and little remorse in murdering or maiming people. The scary thing is, Mouse is a funny and enjoyable guy. "Devil in a Blue Dress" is itself fun and enjoyable and it's much shorter than the O.J. trial. So, check it out.

The Appalachian State Mountaineer lady golf team continued their fall season in not so good fashion this past weekend on the blue grass of Kentucky. The tournament, which was held at the University of Kentucky, yielded a 17 team event in which our swing­ ing Mountaineers finished 16th. In the opening round, the best perfor­ mance came from Erin B. McArthur (Ringgold), who shot an opening round 80 to lead the Mountaineers. The closest ASU golfer to her was Karen D. Muench (Lawsonville) with a first round 87. In this opening round, the Mountaineers posted their worst round total in either of their two tournaments this fall, which couldn't have provided a good outlook for the rest of the tournament. McArthur went on to lead the Moun­ taineers in the second round of play, dupli­ cating her first round score of 80. ASU did improve their score by 15 strokes in this round, showing great team character. The Mountaineers went on to finish with a sec­ ond round score of 330 and a third round score of337, thus posting a final three round total of 1012. The best individual finisher for the Mountaineers was Erin B. McArthur who finished 60th in the final posting. The Mountaineers look to improve in thier next tournament. Both the players and Coach Dicus know that they will have to play bet­ ter if they want to become competitive. One thing to note about this tournament is that the Mountaineers were witout their best player, Meridyth A. Stanley (Ormond Beach), who's reason for being absent is un­ known. Her presence should shave at least a few strokes off the score for the next event. The Lady Mountaineers swing back into ac­ tion on October 20 at the Lady Paladin Invi­ tational at Furman University, where green grass hopes to be luckier than blue grass. On Wednesday, October 4, amongst the fog and the mist, the men's soccer team took on Furman. Furman, the leader in the South­ ern Conference, was handed a 3-2 loss in over­ time, while Appalachian improved its record to 6-5. The game opened with Jay Lane, a senior from King N.C., scoring an unassisted goal in the first 15 seconds. The Furman goalie let the direct shot slide past. The game then con­ tinued with no team having complete possesion of the ball, until Furman's Brian Nickerson found himself unopposed as the goalie was out of the box and in 20:35 he scored unassisted. The officials took control of the aggresive game, first giving a yellow card to D. Mark Hemphill, a freshman from Asheville, then to Jay Lane. Frustrated, Coach Art Rex asked the officials to "make sure they go both ways." On the next play, yellows were issued to both Ap­ palachian and Furman. With under 30 seconds left in the first half Furman player Brent Rosser took a shot that deflected off sophmore goalie Chad A. Hawley, from Cary, N.C. Then, while Hawley had come out, Rosser knocked it in, leaving the score 21 Furman at the half. The Mountaineers picked up the intensity as the second half unfolded. They took shot after shot but simply could not produce. While on the other end Appalachain recieved big defensive plays by Jay Lane, senior Ryan K. Anderson from Atlanta native Robert J. Black, a freshman goalie from Greensboro. With 54 seconds left in regulation Jay Lane scored his second goal of the game, bringing him to a team leading seven goals and tying up the game at 2-2. The first half of overtime the shots on both sides continued. With under a minute left Jay Lane set up a beautiful offensive play for the senior from Ormand Beach, Fla., C. Brett Harrell: Brett's goal was assisted by both Brian C. Cone, a senior from Concord, N.C., and Mike R Moody, a junior from Matthews, N.C. The goal brought the game to its final score 32 Appalachian. The game was far from over, however. The Mountaineers had to play big on defense to maintain the win. A Furman shot that was less than a yard before reaching the net and sure to score was saved by junior defensive player Kevin Turner, from Allison Park, Pa., who also saved the game from ending in a tie. 7 was very intimidated when I started. I thought I knew everything there was to know about volleyballbut there -April Sorrells, junior ASU beat Furman with their defense in the second half and overtime.

According to SGA President Darby Weaver, the legislation is intended to require the homecoming queen to play a larger role in the community. "I want it to be more than a title or popularity contest, but instead a way that the queen can feel she was selected to be a true representative of our great university, " said Baker. Baker would like scholarships to ac­ company the title of homecoming queen. Baker also wants the homecoming queen to have an official sponsor, such as a female fac­ ulty member. "The sponsor's role would be minor, yet vital in case the queen needed to consult her with any further suggestions or concerns," said Baker. "The bottom line is for this new role to be fun for the special person selected," said Baker. "I want all nominees to look forward to helping our school and community through this opportunity." "I think this is great, and I hope this makes the student body base their decisions upon ability and representation of Appalachian and not just popularity," said Christopher W Henderson, a sophomore from Burlington. The Appalchian State University Board of Trustees allocated $75,000 for the installation of more efficient lights on campus. Jane E Helm, vice chancellor of busi­ ness affairs, said that the money is for chang­ ing the already existing lights to more efficient ones. "No new lighting will be added," she said. Roy A. Tugman, director of public safety at Appalachian, said he didn't know anything about the money, but security had participated in The Safety Walk, a program that evaluates the current lighting on campus, with New River Light and Power Company and the Student Government Association on Sept. 8. "Most of the lighting is in good shape," Tugman said. Felicia F. Fluid, student affairs chair of SGA, said that there is room for improve­ ment. There are currently 19 blue lights on campus. Fluid said that 6 more are needed on campus. According to Fluid, blue lights should be installed in front and behind Wey Hall, the parking lot of Raley Hall, next to Belk Library, at Appalachian Heights and the walkway to Edwin Duncan Hall. Fluid said that the white lights at the corner of Rankin and on the side of D.D Dough­ erty are blocked by trees. Students are concerned about the lighting on campus, especially after a female student was alledgedly assaulted by Trivette. "All the lights are inadequate for the number of students here, and I don't feel safe," said Shannon C. Hoadley, a senior from Ra­ leigh. lumni present McKinney's eed to the B0T, university anne Carter rter During a Board of Trustees meeting '^Pt-22, the foundation of Appalachian 26-'crsity transferred ownership of the inic' completed McKinney Alumni Center to wersity.

Hebert said that the library depends on the donations of individuals and businesses for the puchase of new books and computers. Hebert said most of the books purchased to fill the new facility will be adult and reference materials. Hebert said the new facility will also have a meeting room that seats 100 people. She said the room would be open to non-profit groups for meeting space. "There really isn't a facility like that in Boone," said Hebert. "I think it will be wellused." The public library also performs pro­ grams in 12 day cares and nursing homes in Watauga County. They also sponsor a sum­ mer reading program for children.

The current facility on Depot Street only has 18 spaces. "It's difficult for library users to get here, said Hebert. "They really have to make an effort." According to Hebert, eight percent of the county library users are Appalachian stu­ dents. She also said she hopes the new facil­ ity will draw more students because it will have about 70 places for people to sit and study. "One of our big problems now is that we have no place for people to sit and study," said Hebert.

"It gives us a sense of his­ tory of our alumni." The McKinney Center was built for the alumni to have a place to meet during foot­ ball games and to provide a building to host faculty receptions and class reunions. Groundbreaking and construction of the alumni center began on May 7, 1994 by Hall Architects of Charlotte. Offices, such as the Appalachian Student Ambassadors and the Appalachian Alumni Association, officially moved into the McKinney center on July 15, 1995, during summer sessions. The grand opening of the McKinney Center is planned for some time in the Spring of 1996. However, plans for an open house of the alumni center during homecoming week­ end, are being finalized.

While Appalachian is not a crime pit, neiier is it a bastion of safety or a Utopian society where inte does not exist. Last year, there was only one case of rape reorted at Appalachian. That is pretty good when ompared to the three cases reported at NC-State, ie four cases reported at UNC-Greensboro or the 11 iSes reported at UNC-Chapel Hill. Or is it? Keep in unc) that these other schools all have much larger impuses and are located either in or near much irger cities. Also keep in mind that for a rape to cake it into the crime logs it must be reported. As have already seen this year, assaults and other imes often do not make it to that stage of prosecu on. Assaults on the Appalachian campus numbered I for 1994. Assaults on the UNC-Greensboro camus numbered only six. On the surface it looks as lough one would be 50 percent more likely to be % vaulted on the Appalachian campus. In reality, howrer, that percentage is much higher.

Secondly, in cases of rape, incest or the mother's life, abortion is proper. Finally, a father who refuses financial and emotional support to his child is just as morally reprehensible as a mother who does the same with a convenience abortion. Ninetyfive percent, or 1.3 million abortions, are performed yearly in this country for conve­ nience. The support of this ghastly practice is based on rationalizing, not law, compas­ sion, or even common sense. Abortion is constitutionally protected? Please. Unable to win this debate honestly using legislation, the American people were back-doored by seven "social engineers," led by Harry Blackmun, who found the right to abortion in a non-existing privacy clause. The damage this court has done to our country is impossible to sum up in one column. But us­ ing the Constitution to deprive the unborn of "person" status, thus giving citizens imperial/ \\J \/If / V 'st'c contr°l of them, sounds a bit too close to ) /n America's early rationalization of slavery. It's easier to make a case that abortion is uncon­ stitutional when we deprive one of life with­ out due process. But the Constitution is silent on this matter and these justices should've shown similar restraint. It's also bad law. When you are going to take human life I don't believe there should be gray areas. Restricting abortion to trimes­ ters is ridiculous because we can never be sure exactly when one begins or ends. As technol­ ogy improves and premature babies are able to survive at younger ages we will soon get to a point where we are aborting babies who are old enough to survive. The distinction be­ tween murder and abortion is about to be defined simply by where the baby is located. In many states if a fetus is killed by someone other than the mother murder charges are filed. When does a fetus receive "person" sta­ tus? The law is so bad no one knows. A woman should not be allowed to do what she wants with her body. When feminists start screaming about legalizing pros­ titution and drugs, I'll be the first to applaud their consistency. Listen, it is not the woman's body being sucked through a hose. I know legally it's not a "person" either, but let's not play word games here. An unborn child is being vacuumed to death, not the mother. People who believe in abortion need to start acting like grown-ups and face what it is they are advocating instead of hiding behind sterile slogans. No one is asking women to do anything more than give birth. You don't have to change diapers or kiss any boo boos. Just accept enough responsibility for your ac­ tions to give the child life. You don't even have to look at the kid because somewhere a couple has waited years to love your child. One of the biggest myths in this entire debate is that children of color are never adopted. The people who believe this love feeling superior to the rest of us. I have two grandchildren who are black and if anything ever happened to their parents I would be proud to raise them as my own and I'm no better than anyone. The only documented prejudice is that of bureaucrats refusing inter-racial adoptions, not a lack of couples desperate for any child to love. Liberals are intolerant of opposing viewpoints. Conservatives are ready to make the pro-choice Colin Powell president. The supposedly intolerant Christian Coalition has only requested he respect their values and have expressed admiration for his val­ ues while also urging him to run. It was Bill Clinton and liberal Democrats who re­ fused to allow a pro-life Democrat to speak at their '92 presidential convention. There are many pro-choice Republicans who are not only allowed to speak at conventions, but are supported by their party and the Christian Coalition. In this debate, fascism is solely a tool of the left. Abortion is a Pandora's box. What are we going to do when a generics test at home will tell you the hair color, sex, intelligence, temperament, or skin pigment of your unborn baby, and a pill will allow you to try again? Soon advocates of abortion will find their agenda turning on them. In China, sex selected abortions have given us see Choice page 5 A w a Deanna Hall Business Manager Columnist In 1973, two years before 1 was born, women won back the right to control their bodies from the U.S. government. That year marked the end of Roe v. Wade, the case which resulted in abortion being made legal again. Abortion is the procedure by which a woman terminates a pregnancy. There are several forms including suction and RU486, the new abortion pill. No matter which method a woman uses, she is ending a life. A living, growing fetus inside her dies. There is no other way to look at it. The point at which life begins is irrelevant. No matter when the brain forms or the heart starts beating, a fetus is denied the right to live. You can't sugarcoat a medical procedure which ends when a life does. I am pro-choice. I don't have to tell you that most Americans are pro-choice, or that I believe women who are pro-life are thinking with their hearts and not their heads, to make my point. I believe most pro-choice people share my views. I look at the right to choose as an exten­ sion of Constitutional rights that apply to ev­ eryone. If women cannot control what hap­ pens to their bodies, what can they control about their lives? Ever seen the bumper sticker that says, "How can you trust me with a baby if you can't even trust me with a choice?" Who says that one group's ideals should apply to everyone? An unplanned pregnancy creates three choices: keeping the unwanted baby, adop­ tion or abortion. Giving someone freedom of choice doesn't require them to 'do anything. It gives options from which to choose. Freedom of choice equals a woman's con­ trol over her body, women having safe abor­ tions, women who can't care for a baby hav­ ing the option not to have to, babies not be­ ing brought into the world unwanted, rape victims being given the right to take back their uterus, and finally, the unhealthy child not being born into a home which cannot care for it and a-world that doesn't want to. Choice adds up to a lot of important options for would-be parents. What baffles me about pro-lifers is that they assume so much. Just because one person's morals go against something, does that mean we all shouldn't do it? The reason that school prayer has failed in Congress for so long is that the government realizes one set of opinions or views cannot rule our country. The same is true of abortion. Just because pro-lifers would "never" choose to abort, does this mean that they don't deserve the right as good citizens of the United States to have the right to choose? Isn't freedom what this country is all about? I respect pro-lifers for their strong set of morals, however, I have found most to be full of contradictory ideas. How many call abortion murder and still go against typi­ cally pro-life ideals like not having sex before marriage and not using birth control? Doesn't spermicide kill sperm? How many pro-lifers support the death penalty and use pesticides in their gardens or flea-collars on their dogs? These things, however trivial, also end lives just like abortion. To say that these things are different is to imply that a human life is more precious than any other which goes against the whole pro-life concept. If you are against something because you think it's murder, be against all forms of murder. Let's not even get into the pro-lifers who storm abortion clinics and madly shoot everyone inside. I'm hoping these radicals don't truly represent the wishes of all pro-lifers. If you are going to be holier-than-thou, at least practice what you preach for God's sake. Let the rest of us learn from your example. So what can we all do to make sure we never have to face unwanted preg­ nancy and the possibility of abortion? Practice planned parenthood, use birth control every time, don't put yourself in the position not to be able to handle "accidents." Educate the children you do have so that they will be responsible. Don't condemn women who have abortions. Do whatever you can to make sure that those you love never have to face an unplanned pregnancy. Celebrate and respect life. Let's face the fact that although it is a pretty heinous procedure, abortion is a safe Angela Brady Editor-in-Chief John Lane Managing Editor John Nolte Columnist A terrible injustice has occurred, and we all helped bring it about. We hold gifted athletes in the highest re­ gard. We treat them like gods and overlook their short­ comings. We stand in line for their autographs and buy their products. We see them as somehow better than our­ selves, and when we hear that they have done something bad, we say, "No, tell us it isn't true!" because we need for it not to be true, lest we risk upsetting the perverted sense of importance we attach to our sports icons. O.J. Simpson will now have to live the rest of his life with the guilt of knowing what he did eating away at him. But that is far too small a price for him to pay for such brutal crimes. Nicole Brown Simpson and Ronald Goldman died a more horrible death than any of us can imagine, and in the face of this, all their families could hope for was that the killer be brought to justice. Instead, the trial quickly turned into a joke, serving as a blatant and comprehensive illustration of all that is wrong with our judicial system. Although O.J. has now released a statement about find­ ing "the killer or killers who slaughtered Nicole and Mr. Goldman," the problem is that they don't exist. There was only a single set of bloody footprints leading from the vic­ tims to a back alley. The trail of bloody footprints and droplets then leads out of Nicole's back alley to O.J.'s Bronco, up the driveway and into the foyer of 360 Rockingham Drive, in Brentwood, California, where O.J lives, then into the shower and sink of his master bedroom. "There's no doubt the blood stains were O.J.'s. Absolutely no doubt," said Dr. Bruce Weir, a statistics and genetics professor at N.C. State University who spent three days testifying in June. "The odds on some of the stains (being someone else's blood) were one in several million or higher... but the jury chose to ignore all the DNA evidence." Why would they do this? Teresa Carpenter, a freelance journalist who spent countless hours studying the Simpson case, said months ago, "No one so cel­ ebrated and so beloved has ever been charged with such a crime. Is O.J. famous beyond accountabil­ ity? Is he like one of those Olym­ pian gods who periodically runs amok only to have their crimes for­ given as the foibles of the divine? In this case, reasonable doubt may simply be a straw that wavering jurors can clutch gratefully to let O.J. off the hook." Perhaps the saddest part of all, though, is that the warning signs were there for so long, yet no one acted on them. In 1986, nine days after Nicole and O.J.'s first child was born, police answered a call at the Simpson estate to find Nicole sitting on the hood of her car, the windshield having been shattered by O.J. with a baseball bat.

When you see smokers hanging out of their windows or bundled up outside of their dorms, don't laugh. For many smok­ ers, the new rules regulating smoking in dorms on campus has forced them to ex­ tremes. The new policy in dorms restricts smoking to the students' rooms with the door closed. Up until this year, you could smoke in the main lobbies of dorms, as well as in your rooms. This came in handy if you needed to study in the lobby and felt the need to smoke. It was also convenient if you had a non-smoking roommate, or if you simply didn't want your room smelling like a smokestack. The rule change came as a surprise to many smokers. Students weren't informed of this change until they moved in. Many smoking students may have chosen a dif­ ferent roommate or simply decided to live off-campus. Junior Catherine A. Tate of Boone says, "Last year my buddies and I would go downstairs to study. It was convenient that we could smoke in the lobby. It's ri­ diculous that we either have to go back to our rooms or go outside to smoke." Robert G. Kurfees, a freshman from Statesville, says, "They should have set up smoking sections in the lobbies ot dorms instead of prohibiting it all together." A lot of smokers have non-smoking roommates and are forced to smoke out of their windows. That is, if their room­ mate will let them. Amy L. Campbell, a non-smoking sophomore from Mars Hill wishes the school would have kept the same policy Rebecca A. Goza is often forced to smoke a cigarette while hanging out of her window. (Photo by Clay Barbour) Rebecca Goodhart Reporter Choosing a major or a career is a tough decision. There are so many choices out there that narrowing it down to one subject for the rest of your life sounds scary. In fact, it is scary - but don't worry. Appalachian offers resources like Peer Career to help you make these decisions. When you walk in the door at Peer Ca­ reer a friendly counselor greets you and asks you to fill out an intake form. Since the coun­ selors are volunteers and no appointments are necessary, a counselor looks up your intake form from then on and picks up where vou left off. Once the intake form is filled out, you and your counselor sit down and go through a four-step career decision-making process. At this point your counselor can decide if you are focused enough to move on the computer programs or if you need to explore your in­ terests more fully. The computer programs offered are Dis­ cover, Sigi Plus and Focus. Discover and Sigi give you an inventory and compile a list of occupations you're suited for based on your answers. If you don't go straight onto the computers, you might take a Self-Directed Search inventory which would help different aspects of your personality a: fields you would be comfortable in. L. Grubbs, a sophomore from Kerr said, "Peer Career gave me a list of | careers and many resources to choosi Peer Career Co-Coordinator Jei Cassidy, who is also a psychologist counseling center, suggests that the b to get the full benefit of Peer Career is in during your freshman year and the several follow up visits.

No one knows for sure because charges were ever filed. In fact, ponding officers sometimes asked his autograph, or just hung out to t for a few minutes. On New Years 1989, police arrived to find Nicole i'ng in a clump of bushes, beaten badly that she had to be hospitalWhat punishment did O.J. reve? Two years probation and a fine. O.J. continued to terrorize ,0ie, according to documents resed during the trial, by throwing her of a moving car, beating her dursex and threatening to cut off the ds of her boyfriends, after they re divorced. There are also numerwitnesses to a scene in a crowded in which O.J. grabbed Nicole's Ich and said, "This belongs to me. is is where my children come from." O.J.'s battering of Nicole went on, remained a hero , as he still does many people today. Five days bee her death, Nicole called a local tered women's shelter to say she s being stalked by O.J. and feared her life. Tom Soresen, in his Charlotte server column last Wednesday, has s to say: "On June 12,1994, Nicole hoice Brown Simpson and Ron Goldman were murdered. They leave behind children and parents and friends and people who love them. But perhaps because they were murdered way back in the first quarter (of the game), we kind of forgot about them. Instead, we joked about Kato and screamed about Fuhrman and turned the trial into fodder for the tabloids and talk shows. We treated it as if it were a game. That haunting cry from that devastated woman (Ron Goldman's sister Kim, in the courtroom) is proof it was not." Mike Tyson received merely a slap on the wrist for his crime, but at least the jury admitted he was guilty. O.Ts crimes were far worse than Tyson's, and he should have paid for them. After wasting millions of dollars of the taxpayers' money on this facade of a trial, what has been gained? A guilty man walks free, to the cheers of mil­ lions of misguided people who seem to believe that he will now be scoring touchdowns for them next Sunday. The state of race relations in this coun­ try will get worse instead of better as a result of this verdict. And most of those people who already had little faith in the system now have none. they had last year. "That way, I wouldn't have to watch my room­ mate hang out of the window every night," says Campbell. However, not all non-smokers feel this way. Many non-smokers are happy about the new policy. They no longer have to put up with old cigarette butts in the potted trees and empty cans in dorm lobbies. Sophomore Amanda L. Saunders of Greensboro says, Tm glad they can't smoke down there anymore. The smoke always bothered me while I was studying down there." Is this discrimination? Some students think so. "Smokers' rights are being violated. The smoking policy (in dorms) shouldn't have been changed," said Brandi L. Arnold, a sophomore from Greens­ boro. Most students agree; while the main lobbies of most dorms aren't very warm during the winter, they are still a lot better than going out­ side in the bitter cold to smoke. Just wait until another Boone winter hits full-force and smokers, who can't smoke in their rooms, are forced to huddle up outside in blan­ kets to prevent frostbite.

Abortion should not be illegal. The back alley abortion can not be leg­ islated away, and although doing something illegal (whether robbing a bank or taking drugs) should and does have it's risks, this debate can only be won in people's hearts. The Ameri­ can people are the most compassion­ ate and tolerant people in the history of the world. Like slavery and the sub­ jugation of the American Indian, I have no doubt we will someday look back at abortion with the same revulsion. irfj In fact many students go to Peer Career to get help before choosing a major. "I had no idea what I wanted to major in, and Peer Career gave me some direction," said Marietta native Nicole E. Heiserman, a sophomore. Peer Career can also help you decide if the major you have chosen is right for you. Matt T. Hitchcock, a sopho­ more from Virginia Beach said, "Peer Career helped me realize that I needed to work more with people. After I went to Peer Career I changed my major from geology to communications." Peer Career has more to offer than its name might imply. It can help you decide on a major, choose a career plan for the future, and start you down the path toward your goal. It makes thinking about your future a little less scary and maybe a little more fun. The Appalachian welcomes any letters to the editor.

Appalachian jumped out early, scoring on its first four possessions keyed by the running of Gerard Q. Hardy (Cramerton, NC) and interceptions by .Matt B. Stevens (Chapel Hill, NC) and Jamie M. Coleman (Laurinburg, NC). t The Mountaineers took the opening kickoff and went 74 yards in nine plays. Hardy led the drive with a 41-yard run on second and six. Three plays later, Hardy took it in from three yards out and Appalachian took the lead 7-0. Following a stalled drive by the Paladins, Damon L. Scott (Cedar Grove, NC) took the first and 10 handoff and went 48 yards, putting the Moun­ taineers back in scoring position. Four plays later, Hardy passed to fresh­ man Frank E. Leatherwood (Clyde, NC) for the four-yard score. The lead increased to 14 points. Furman's next two possessions saw QB Braniff Bonaventure picked off by Stevens who took the ball 18 yards to the Paladin 33 and Coleman who got caught just short of the end zone at the three. The Apps did not waste any time as Hardy took the ball 30 yards on second down to the two yard line. Aldwin Lance (Shallotte, NC) rumbled in on the next play for the 210 lead. The second interception also led to a quick score as Scott scored his first TD of the game from three yards out, giving Appalachian the early 280 lead. However, the Mountaineers were not done, and on their first drive in the second quarter, Hardy took the ball around the left end for 62 yards and his second TD of the game. Furman, down 35-0 finally got on track as Josh Cole grabbed two passes for 36 yards and Mark Moore ran up the middle for 41 yards and the first Paladin score of the game. The score remained 35-7 at the intermission. Hardy led the Moun­ taineers with 138 yards rushing and three TD's, two rushing and one pass­ ing. The Mountaineers started the second half the way they have all sea­ son, giving up a score on the opening possession. This score, led by a 36yard Luther Broughton reception and Brandon Culpepper rushed 29 yards up the middle for the Paladins second TD of the game. The lead was now 35-14. After a 45-yard missed field goal by Jay S. Sutton (Wingate, NC) Furman took over and went 72 yards in 15 plays as Moore ran around the left end for the 13-yard score. Furman narrowed the lead to 35-21. But Appalachian moved the ball again, this time led by a 17-yard Kevin J. Burton (Columbia, SC) run and a 16-yard run by Hardy. The Mountain­ eers came away with a 37-yard field goal. Applachian led 38-21. Eight minutes later, the Mountaineers took over on downs at the Furman 25 and got another Sutton field goal, this one from 42 yards. The Apps led 41-21. With time running out in the game, Furman added another score, but it was too little too late, as the Mountaineers held on for the 41-28 victory. You certainly don't think you're going to get a 35—point lead on these guys," commented Head Coach Jerry Moore. Dexter Coakley and the Mountaineer defense tied a The Apps had two for the record books, as Hardy set a new single scholl record with 11 sacks in the 41-28 victory against game rushing record for a quaterback with 160 yards on 17 carries and the defense totalled 11 sacks, tying a game high.

The road wins also improved the team's Southern Conference record to 5-0, keeping 'hem in first place in the conference. On Friday, the Mountaineers took on Davidson College in Davidson, NC. The Lady Apps won the first two games fairly easy post­ ing scores of 15-10 and 15-3. The Lady Apps then dropped the third game 7-15 before fin­ ishing the match with a close 16-14 win. The team recorded some impressive of­ fensive statistics with a total of 52 kills and 16 blocks. The Mountaineers were led by junior April L. Sorrells of Hendersonville, NC and sophomore Erica J. Bahry of Etobicoke, Ontario with 16 kills apiece. Kathy E. Granack, a senior from Charlotte, had a game high 53 assists at setter. Senior Sheri L. Leverette of Lakeland, Fla. and Amy V Kolomechuk, a senior from Waynesville, both chipped in with eight kills. On Sunday the Mountaineers traveled to Huntington, West Virginia to take on Marsall University. The team won the match in straight games 15-5, 15-13, and 15-9. Although their offensive numbers went down from the previ­ ous match, the team recorded a total of 66 digs in the match while also picking up six aces. Leverette and Bahry had 12 kills apiece to pace the Lady Mountaineers. Sorrells contrib­ uted 11 kills and 14 digs. Granack had game highs in assists, with 46, and digs, netting 17. The team will return home this week as they face UNC-Asheville on Wednesday and Western Carolina on Friday. Both matches will be at 7 p.m. in the gymnasium.

(Photo by Shane Richardson) FUR The Appalachian State field hockey team had a busy week taking on Radford on Oct.4 and Wake Forest on Oct. 5. The Lady Moun­ taineers showed signs of life but could not find a win, dropping their season record to 1-10. The game against Radford was a rematch of an early season Appalachian win and the Lady Mountaineers hoped to reap another vic­ toryagainstRadford. T h e Mountaineers captured their first win against Radford with a score of 2-1. "We didn't play as strongly as we did before and with Radford scoring early in the game, we got dissappointed," commented Head Assisant Coach Karen Poole. A senior from Barnsville, Maryland, Ingrid O. Stamberg, added,"We didn't start playing normally until the second half and by that time, it's too late." Radford scored both of their goals in the first half. The two goals were short corner shots. "The corner shots are a weakness that we need to work on," explained Coach Cathy Burleson. "We played uptight and played flat and couldn't get pumped up." Appalachian State had a total of 11 inside circle shots and 12 outside circle shots, while Radford had 13 and one. Stamberg got eight saves against Radford. However, the Lady Mountaineers could not hit the mark offensively and would have to settle for the 2-0 loss. The squad then traveled to Wa where they faced-off against the L cons. "We played well as a team. Wet up and played tough. Everyone got to play and did a good job," said S "The team knew this game was goin hard one, but everyone stuck it out at well."

Appalachian State University, Boone, North Carolina, 28608 ;tober5,1995 Volume 70, Number 11 5 students withdrawn r lacking proper shots Jiee Cagle ff Writer Approximately 85 students were idrawn from Appalachian State University iuse they did not get the state required J iunizations. According to Registrar A. Brooks £od, his office printed a list of 115 students were not in compliance. Approximately >f those students were in compliance with state law but needed the tuberculin skin which is a requirement of Appalachian. | students were not withdrawn but rese ] 'ed a letter with instructions. s "The bulk of the students withdrawn e new for Fall 1995," said McLeod. These students were freshmen, transfers, and gradu­ ate students. According to McLeod, a student who has been withdrawn must get the proper shots. After this is done the student has to go to the infirmary and be put in their computer sys­ tem. The infirmary must give the student a note that needs to be taken to the registrar's office. The registrar will then put the student back into school. The student then gets a note from the registrar to show to his or her profes­ sors, which proves that the student has been readmitted. "I wish there was some other way to do it, " said McLeod. McLeod said that a lot of students have begun the readmittance process. "The numbers change everyday because students have made themselves in compliance," said McLeod. lien speaks about oping with change as key factors in developing businesses for the future.

This relocation will take approximately one to two years. Appalachian administrators started looking for a site for the greenhouse close to Rankin Science last year, but no space was found. The grounds department currently has two greenhouses and they are downsizing because of campus growth. Due to this downsizing, Jim Bryan, head of the grounds department, and the department itself suggested rebuilding the greenhouse at State Farm. "I think it's a positive move for the university," Bryan said. The biology department and faculty along with Betsy L. Cobb, manager of the greenhouse, will not move out of the green­ house on campus until the newly constructed one is complete. Cobb said there is a great need for the relocation to the new greenhouse. "It was an adequate design for a hobby type green­ house, but has always been inadequate for a research facility and because of space, the size of the collection is limited," Cobb said. With the size of the expansion and the new loca­ tion, the collection should have room for growth. Perennials, plants that come back each year, will be in the new greenhouse. More professional and research room will also be in the new greenhouse. Funding for the relocation of the greenhouse will come from the Annual Repair and Renovation Allocation Fund, allocated by the state legislature. The space left when the greenhouse is actually gone will not be another construc­ tiident attendance up at Cultural Affairs events The Performing Arts Series draws students for education, entertainment lany Lohman ws Editor fairs) are doing a better job of involving stu­ dents," said Weissberg.

Attendance at the Performing Arts Series has been on a steady incline over the past five years. According to Mixter, 65 sea­ son passes have been sold this year. Only 45 were purchased last year. The programs included in the Per­ forming Arts Series are selected by the Per­ forming Arts Committee, which is made up of student, faculty, staff and community rep­ resentatives. Mixter said the Performing Arts se­ ries only includes 11 events this year, com­ pared to 17 events in the 1993-94 academic year. Mixter said the committee is concen­ trating on getting higher quality events in­ stead of a great quantity of events. The Office of Cultural Affairs is in­ volved with the Boone community as well. Mixter said that they sponsor one or two events a year in the Watauga County Public School system.

According to Cobb, the biology de­ partment wants to have the space for contin­ ued vegetation. Cobb said problems with theft and vandalism have been occurring about once a semester at the on-campus greenhouse. At the State Farm facility, there will be a 12-foot fence surrounding the greenhouse. The uni­ versity hopes this will prevent the same thing from happening at the new location. The Biology Department, along with Cobb, would like to see the on-campus green­ house dismantled instead of demolished. Ap­ palachian has already had offers to purchase the greenhouse. The contracts for the new destina­ tion of the greenhouse were drawn up by Dayton T. Cole, university attorney. Cole pre­ pared documents to request permission to demolish the greenhouse on campus. These contracts were developed by a committee composed of Cobb, Howard S.

Chapell Wilson and Smith-Wright will soon begin to have elevators installed. Dr. Clyde D. Robbins, physi­ cal plant administrator, said $200,000 has been allocated for the projects. He said when the funds have been re­ leased, architects will be hired to be­ gin the official planning. This project was approved as part of the 1995-96 renovation allocation fund project, which is appropriated by the state leg­ islature. Every year a list of campus repairs and renovations are made. These are considered as possibilities for where the state money can be spent. This year, the elevator installa­ tions will take priority. Robbins expects the planning and designs to take about four months and hopes the actual construction will begin in April or May. Robbins said the project may be completed in Au­ gust of next year. The elevator installations were only one of 20 repairs and reno­ vations on the list. Other items include re-roofing Legends and replacing win­ dows in Chapell Wilson and I.G. Greer.

Decisive Quest is an elec­ tronic employment service that distrib­ utes student resumes to over 1,270 employers. Students' resumes are not only sent to large employers, but to many small employers around the country. To participate, a student needs only a computer with Microsoft Windows and a modem. Using the modem, students download the pro­ gram from Decisive Quest's World Wide Web Site on the Internet. Once downloaded, the stu­ dent uses the program to create a two page resume. The program asks the student about what type of job they want, their major, GPA, work experi­ ence and extracurricular activities. Students can also add up to 20 lines of additional text to explain additional facts about themselves. The student then sends their resume to Decisive Quest either by mail or by modem. When a company wishes to hire a student, they use the program to determine what type of student they are looking for. If a potential match is found, Decisive Quest contacts the stu­ dent and asks them for their permis­ sion to release their resume to the potential employer. No information is released to a company without the student's consent. Employment opportunities are not strictly limited to full-time employers. Decisive Quest also aids students in the search for internships, part-time employment or summer employment opportunities. However, the program does have several limitations. Unless the student is seeking employment in their home city or state, they cannot specify which region of the country they would like to work in. They are also unable to declare the exact date they wish to begin working. Decisive Quest is available at no cost to the student. Its operating expenses are paid by employers who use it to hire students. If you would like to partici­ pate in this program, you can access the Decisive Quest home page on the Internet World Wide Web.

This summer, work was done putting in curb cuts (small ramps from the street onto the sidewalks) around campus, two handicap- accessible ramps were put in at the child care center, additional signs marked in Braille were put up, as well as a host of other changes having been made to make this cam­ pus more "user friendly." Dr. Clyde D. Robbins of physical plant adminis­ tration, said these measures have been taken to help bring Appalachian up to the standards set by the American Disabilities Act. This act addresses things such as accessibility, restrooms and signage to make public facilities more accessible to the disabled. Curb cuts and ramps are obvious signs of the university's concern, which many students may have noticed. However, other things many students may not readily recognize have also been done. All the new residence halls, for instance, have room num­ bers not only stencilled in paint, but also put in Braille for the blind. Another symbol of the university's attention to this matter are the yellow strips which have just re­ cently been painted on the top and bottom of all out­ side stairways to let people know of the coming stairs. Many water fountains have been lowered, as well and several bathrooms which previously lacked handicap accessibility have been improved upon. The new addition to the student union, Robbins said, was in large part designed with these goals in mind. Ramps, curb cuts and elevators were auto­ matically figured in to the plans for the new part of the building, whereas when the .old.student union was built, there was a stairway but no elevator. The addition also has automatic doors for the disabledalthough these doors still are not completely func­ tional. The inside set of doors opens, but the outside set merely gives a small spasm before going back to its original position. This is one area which could definitely use some work. There is still a lot of work to do to get Appala­ chian up to the American Disability Act standard, but the fact that Appalachian is making a concerted ef­ fort is a great improvement in itself. Robbins said that every year, money is taken from the budget to accomplish more of these goals. All the improve­ ments cannot be done at once, however, due to the tremendous expense involved. So far, a lot has been accomplished, but accord­ ing to Robbins, "what remains are big ticket items." One such "big ticket" item is the elevator project. Elevators will be placed in Smith-Wright and Chapeli Wilson halls some time next year. The Appalachian commends the administration's efforts to comply with the American Disabilities Act, and urges them to keep up the good work.

I have been curious about this for two years. To find out, I asked students from the Black Student Asso­ ciation (BSA) and the APPS' Council for Cultural Aware­ ness (CCA) to meet with me for this article. In talking with them, I realized how easy it is to forget about black students' needs because of how small that population is. However, it is time for all students to realize that diversity is a vital part of the college experience, and unless things drastically change soon, we may lose the black population at Appalachian altogether. Let's face it folks. Boone doesn't really reflect the real world. The lack of diversity in the student body has led the administration to start taking steps to improve the situ­ ation. One example is the Office of Cultural Affairs bring­ ing up minority speakers and entertainment acts to help us broaden our awareness. The poet, bell hooks, coming to speak is a product of this effort. I applaud this kind of action, but what I'm worried about is how the black stu­ dents here are treated in the classroom and around Boone. A cultural event every now and then is good, but just not enough. Life extends beyond a two hour presentation in Farthing. Imagine what it must be like to walk to class each day and rarely see anyone who looks like you. You go to buy hair products and discover that they aren't available, even though that same store chain at home has lots of what you want. You get a zit you want to cover up and the depart­ ment store doesn't carry cosmetics in your skin color though the one at home does. The music store has a tiny selection of music in the catagory that you prefer. Sitting in class, you are targeted when racial issues come up as though you are an automatic authority on whatever topic it is. People constantly ask you if you are on a basketball schol­ arship even though you didn't come to school to play sports except on the weekend. Getting your hair cut and seeing people like you act in movies requires driving at least 35 miles into Wilkesboro. These are pretty typical situations that black students face. What may seem like a minor thing in the scope of a life can become a big problem. Take just a couple of those things and apply them to your life. Wouldn't it be terrible to have to go home every time you wanted some shampoo or needed a good haircut? Imagine wanting the new CD by your favorite group and not being able to buy it here. These are pretty minor things that can add up to make being a black student here extremely Junior Nakia Hardy said, "I think that a \ "6 lem is the fear that the Boone community h°tofli Appalachian student community.

Apathetic doesn't even describe how out of touch wean' comatose. Let's take a look at this year's Student Government Association (S ate election. While only 25 votes are needed to put a candidate in the senator, only 55 of a possible 77 senate seats were filled. The only people who have an excuse for their apathy are the ra Bowie Hall. Nobody from that hall even bothered to run, so how: vote? One might question whether these residents even knew ther' election. It's amazing that the 288 residents of Bowie do not yet have representative in SGA. And still, nearly three weeks after the election' from that hall has even gone by the SGA office and picked up a petit1 come a senator. All they would need is 100 signatures. However, a question whether a resident of Bowie Hall would even be able to ate 100 signatures if he left a petition in the lobby with a huge sign askirj to take two seconds of their time to sign it. Bowie Hall is a pillar of apathy. There should be a plaque plan that hall declaring them the ultimate symbol of an apathetic youth.' Another example of campus apathy is last years SGA president! It took only 12.5 percent of the student body to elect this year's SGA and Vice President, Darby Weaver and Robyn Martin. Logically, one f that possibly 87.5 percent didn't want them in office. (Using the same could also assume that since their opponents only received ten pero students votes, possibly 90 percent of the student body wanted Weave tin in.) see Apsth\ Artificial paradise in a pi Terry Butler Columnist In 1988, the Food and Drug Administration approved a drug for the alleviation of depression. This drug is called Prozac, or sometimes nicknamed the "happy pill." The "happy pill" has been the root of recent controversies sur­ rounding psychoactive drugs and just who these drugs should be prescribed to. Many psychiatrists, doctors and members of the general public have expressed worries about the growing number of people taking Prozac today. Another concern about Prozac is whether its users really suffer from the problems which the Food and Drug Ad­ ministration approved it as a treatment for. Originally, Prozac was developed for people suffering Angela Brady clinical depression and obsessive-compulsive disorders. Editor-in-Chief Prozac is only helpful to those who are serotonin deprived. Serotonin is a mood-altering chemical in the brain, and John Lane Prozac helps control the production of that chemical. But Managing Editor since entering the market, many doctors have begun pre­ scribing and many people have been using Prozac for far less serious problems. There are many questions concern­ Deanna Hall ing the safety of prescribing psychoactive drugs to people Business Manager who are not in danger of depression and can function well without the drug. Many users of Prozac suffer absolutely Tiffany Lohman Ken Larking News Editor Editorials Editor no mental illness and are simply looking for a personality enhancement. Some people also look to Prozac for help in smoothing out everyday problems in their lives. But those Allison Pennell Jason Wilkinson seeking instant happiness don't find it in Prozac, because Asst. News Editor Asst. Editorials Editor its effects are very gradual and can take up to four weeks to begin working. Clay Barbour Stephen Hensley Yet, medical doctors have been giving out Prozac as if Features Editor Sports Editor it were candy or aspirin. Many of these doctors are pre­ scribing the drug for unapproved uses, too. Some unap­ Richard Smith David Willis! proved uses are for relief or premenstrual syndrome, obe­ Asst. Features Editor Asst. Sports Editor sity, bulimia, and panic disorders. Although there are no proven cases of Prozac helping any of these problems, the doctors continue to give it out. Rhett Butler David Wainer Since all medical doctors can prescribe it, and even Photography Editor Chief Copy Editor most college counselors, the number of Prozac users now numbers at about 10 million. Of those 10 million users, Editorial Department 262-6233 or 262-3104 many are college students. Recent studies show that about 300 students were prescribed Prozac at Harvard Law School Advertising Department 262-2157 Production Department 262-6256 \ and in 1993, 10 percent of all students who came to the New York University counseling center were prescribed Prozac. But with the increasing awareness of the drug, the number of users only continues to rise. What many users of Prozac don't know or consider are the numerous side effects the drug can cause. Included in the side effects are: facial ticks, uncontrollable jerky movements or muscle spasms, nausea, insomnia, strange dreams, violence prone actions, loss of sex drive, and sui­ cidal tendencies. Even worse, recent research has shown that Prozac accelerates the growth of tumors in laboratory animals. Also, other long term effects of the drug might not be known for decades. ttrqmrt)But since too many psychiatrists are looking for a quick fix for prob­ lems, they forget that love and understanding are important in main­ taining sanity and the power to heal the mind lies in the person, not in a pill. Prozac is merely a stimulant that does not get to the root of the problems and is very dangerous when used over a long period of time. I, myself, had suf­ fered a low grade depres­ sion earlier this year and was prescribed Prozac to help cure my depression. In the four months I took the drug, my personality not only changed dra­ matically, but I suffered from chronic mood swings. I see-sawed from very depressed to ex­ tremely happy. No one ever knew what to ex­ pect of me and my moods. Eventually, I re­ alized that I had enough strength and people who loved me to get through my problems on my own, without a happy personality pill. Although Prozac seems helpful for those need the drug, it should not be used as a cur the numerous side effects, it could be very del one's health to use the drug unnecessarily.

For example, new cars are marketed, new fashion is exhibited and new ways of living are introduced. One important thing is that every year the kids change. Think about it, not all kids grow up wanting to play ball and ride bikes. As a matter of fact, thousands of kids every year begin skateboarding, for fun or transportation. Skateboarding, a $150 million a year industry has be­ come a major part of popular culture. Not only does the industry generate millions in the United States and for­ eign economies, but in most major diverse cities, skate­ boarding brings together all different races. Skateboard­ ing is represented by African Americans, Asians, Hispanics, Europeans, Native Americans and whites. So what's so wrong with skateboarding? Boone and Appalachian State University administration and police are determined to make skateboarding illegal everywhere in the town and on campus. According to Ap­ palachian police skateboarders are a nuisance. I don't understand why skateboarders are treated the way they are by authorities. On several occasions, I've has steadily grown throughout my time here at Appalachian, but my last encounter with it pushed me over the edge. Anyone who knows me knows that I appreciate a good laugh just about more than everyone else in life. So, in hopes of having a few laughs and spending some quality time with my residents, I attended the Comic Strip Live last Thursday night at Leg­ ends. Twenty minutes into Bill Graber's headlining act, the lecture began. Graber announced to the au­ dience that he was gay. For the next 15 minutes, he did eeverything from question the audience's sexuality to telling of his homosexual experiences with a priest and discussing his "three­ somes."

"You can't do that on the street or side­ walk," he would say. So I ask, "Where can I do it, officer?" He replies, "That's your problem." Excuse me, last time I checked I was a person with feelings, too! But my friends and I have continuously been told to quit or well be arrested. Wow, when you get caught drinking under-age, you don't even get treated like that. What is this world coming to? In this town, you can buy drug paraphernalia but you'll get arrested for skateboard­ ing. Have the authorities placed their priorities on crime in the wrong order? I know there are a lot more things I could be doing right now besides skateboarding, like: drugs, vandalism, drinking and God only knows what else. What have we done as skateboarders to make people hate us so much? Rollerbladers certainly aren't treated by police the same as skaters. I couldn't see a family rollerblading in a parking lot being harassed by police. Just the other day, in the same parking lot where I was almost arrested for skateboarding, a girl was freely rollerblading while two policemen in cars watched. I ask Appalachian administration, why must skaters be penalized (confiscation of board, social probation) and not allowed to use our skateboards to get from point A to point B on campus? Appalachian police told me an eld­ erly women was hit in a skateboarding accident by a skater. So are they going to wait for someone to get hit by a biker or a rollerblader before those become illegal? I doubt it. In this crazy chaotic place we call earth, all we need are more laws telling us that we can't do what we love to do; sure, whatever. Keep rocking in the not so free world! Reality To the Editor: continued from page 4 I am writing in response to the Sept. 28 editorial entitled, "Why preachers resemble pro wrestlers." I have been reading The Appa­ lachian for four years now and have often been quite impressed by the professionalism the paper and its staff shows. I do believe The Appa­ lachian is a good source of informa­ tion for thestudent population of Ap­ palachian State. Unfortunately, my trust in this paper's objectivity was destroyed af­ ter reading the previous editorial. I thought The Appalachian's editori­ als were for confronting issues that mattered on campus. Instead it seems that your staff likes to bash established religion and the major­ ity of people on this campus that sup­ port this institution. 1 believe myself to be an open-minded individual, and I even found some humorous com­ ments in the "wrestling" editorial. Sadly though, I feel that the edi­ torial staff, especially Jason Wilkinson, needs to focus on impor­ tant campus issues and not personal biases. Maybe Mr. Wilkinson should try going to church, possibly a nondenominational one, and see what he is missing. I implore the entire edi­ torial staff of The Appalachian to work harder to find more meaning­ ful editorials to publish. Max D. Scroggs Jr. ASU Box 5866 the real world. In college we are pre­ paring ourselves for life on the out­ side. How well will we function un­ less we are exposed to the kinds of people and issues that are prevalent everywhere else? The last thing Boone needs is to lose the black students. "It's about more than numbers," Hardy said. "The administration is doing some things to help us out, but they have miles and miles to go." One suggestion that the students I talked with have is that there needs to be an increase in minority faculty. "It is important tosee black profession­ als who have your same upbringing and have been through the same things as you so you can have some­ one to look up to," junior Michelle D. Simmons said. All students would benefit from a more diverse group of professors. When we get out into the world we will have to work with all sorts of people and this kind of expo­ sure would help us learn how to do so. One place blacks are not neces­ sarily ignored is in the classroom. "When there's a group of [black stu­ dents] the professor looks to you like you're the authority [on racial issues]. Sometimes you know and sometimes you don't, but it's not right to target students," sophomore Christian S. Braxton said. I've been in classes where this has occurred. An example is a professor talking about civil rights and turning to the black student to ask if he has a comment. Fernando G. Little, a sophomore and president of the CCA, brought up the lack of entertainment being brought up here by black artists. "Just because [we] are looking to bring Af­ rican American artists up here doesn't mean that we would be the only ones to benefit from it." He is right on tar­ get. It has been shown that whites support black artists just as much as blacks do. So why is there so little variety in black music in our stores? Why hasn't there been a big black act showcased on campus? The answer is money. Until music promoters and retailers realize that they are missing out on potential profit, we are going to lack these things. "The greek shops don't sell black paraphernalia. You can get things specially made, but they aren't regular items," senior Stacy M. Price told me. Here again we see how the black population is overlooked. Outside of the classroom, Boone is just not a very positive place for black students. "People are afraid to say it, they just want to push it aside. It's not an ideal community, you can't go to get hair products... that you can find everywhere else. They may have one product, like bump fighter razors for black men, but they don't even have pomade grease (a very popular hair product)," senior Wayne A. Pol­ lock said.

"The Boone community has done absolutely nothing to welcome the African American students on this campus," Hardy told me. I see bla­ tant evidence of this everywhere. "I only feel comfortable in Boone as far as spirituality goes," Simmons said. I can see that the only welcome black students get comes from the numerous churches in the area. It's a poor effort. Why is it that Boone resi­ dents will willingly worship with blacks, but when they see them in the mall they clutch their purses a little tighter and lock their car doors when seeing blacks on the street? I thought the Golden Rule was supposed to ap­ ply to all people. I urge all students on this cam­ pus to wake up and realize that the changes the black students need re­ quire involvement from everyone. "Because we are such a small popula­ tion we cannot do everything for our­ selves. It's gonna take everybody to have some kind of turnaround to change the atmosphere on this cam­ pus," Simmons explained. So what can you do? Take Black Literature. Attend BSA events. Go to the CCA parties and dances. Appreci­ ate the fact that the black students who have chosen to come here are making a big effort to do so. It is extremely difficult to be a minority (in the literal sense) in any situation. The least we can all do is try to make it a little easier. Apathy continued from page 4 Also, only 3,431 students voted on the Appalachian Community Environ­ mental Stewardship (ACES) fee, which was inarguably the biggest issue on campus last year. I voted on both of these issues. It took me all of five min­ utes. My voice was heard, and it made a difference. Maybe those of you who didn't vote last year, or haven't voted yet this year, figure that what you have to say won't make a difference. I have news for you. Last year's SGA accomplished many things. They passed a resolution to support charg­ ing faculty and staff for use of the Quinn Center last spring, and as a re­ sult, this year, faculty and staff are being charged for these facilities. Also, SGA was responsible for many cam­ pus events, including Homecoming, the Fall Block Party, Mountaineer Es­ cort, and safety forums to name a few. A few years ago, Appalachian stu­ dents rallyed against the Student Ac­ tivities Center, and were successful. The student body could be a force to be reckoned with on this campus if only they would get behind their SGA or get involved in some other way. As editor of the Editorials page of The Appalachian, I am responsible for handling letters to the editor. I have been amazed by the lack of concern on campus. So far; this year, we have only received 24 letters to the editor. That's less than .0002 percent of the student body. Every student on cam­ pus has the right to send in a letter to the editor. Surely you have an opin­ ion about something. Write us. Tell us about it. It will make a difference. I challenge any resident from Bowie Hall to send in a letter to the editor by next Monday, just to see how apathetic you really are. To make it easier for you I will tell you how to do it. Send letters to The Appalachian at ASU Box 9025 or by e-mail at TheApp@conrad.appstate.edu. �Scenes from the dustbowl Richard Smith Assistant Features Editor The room is almost completely black as you walk over a web of cables and wires across the floor. There are voices yelling and the smell of freshly cut wood is in the air. Above the chaos, there is a room lit only by dim blue light where focused people move amid blinking control panels that resemble the inside of the space shuttle. There is also another room filled with people tirelessly sewing and stitching pieces of cloth, much like a turn-of-the-century sweat shop. This is not a surreal dream .. . this is reality. For "The Grapes of Wrath," all this and more has been going on in preparation for the production, which is now showing at Valborg Theater. For every element of this and any play from construction, to costumes, to lighting, there is a world of detail and teamwork that the average audience member never knows about, but still gets to enjoy. This type of dedication and hard work from the Department of Theater and Dance is what makes "The Grapes of Wrath" and other plays so special. The Tony Award-winning adaptation of John Steinbeck's novel follows the Joad family on their journey from the dust bowl of Oklahoma across the country to California. Ma Joad, played by junior Patty L. Cook of Statesville, N.C., is determined to keep the family together while contending with the volatile young Tom Joad, played by Peter J. Finnegan, a junior from Charlotte, N.C. Steinbeck wrote the novel around the theme that we are always stronger to­ gether than alone, a theme reflected by all those who have been working together to present this play at Appalachian. "This type of production requires a creative team," says Linda Welden, professor of perfor­ mance of literature and the play's director. Rehearsals have been running from 6-11 p.m. every day in preparation for this production, which Welden specifically chose last fall (with depart­ mental approval) because of the emphasis on the group dynamic. "The total experience," Welden says, "is greater than one's own." One cast member, J. David Brown (Uncle John), a senior from Mount Olive, N.C. has been helping out in the costume department about three hours a day. "You do what you can do," he says while putting the finishing touches on one of the outfits to be worn in the play. The process of costume assembly begins up to a year ahead of time with drawing preliminary sketches, getting fabric swatches, and then actually assembling pieces. Senior Amy L. Harrison, a theater education major, describes behind-the-scenes work as "putting together a puzzle. You get to see the whole effect of the process." Another element of the show many people aren't fully aware of is the lighting, but that is how it should be, according to Frank Mohler, the lighting director for this play. "Hopefully the audience won't be thinking about what I'm doing," says Mohler, who has been involved with theater since 1959. The lighting booth directly above and behind the audience houses mixing boards with over 200 computer-programmable dimmers. Since all these dimmers would be impossible to work by hand, lighting changes are done with the press of a button. There are over 150 lights mounted in the theater, and even more have been hung specifically for this show. All lighting and sound cues (computer samples) are on a log following the action of the play. Students run the lights and sound effects during the show, and always have the option of going to manual operation to match a change in the action's tempo. The lights for this produc­ tion are suggestive of the time of day (or night), and are even used to create the effect of water. For one such scene, a river is created not only by lighting, but also by dancers moving cloth over a specially constructed area of the stage. This is an example of several departments com­ ing together for an element of the play: lighting, dance, costumes, and production. see Dustbowl page 8 Appalachian students prepare for one of Steinbeck's best ::x, : >Sr' Matt J.

Many people mistake these for arrowheads, which are smaller and have stems, (photo by Ken Larking) a bounty of information about our past. These sites also provide a great source of education for students. A brief look at the site generates many questions. The depth of the dig is only about 30 cm deep. The fact that there have not been any major Hayes Site predate pottery, most of what Whyte and his students have found are stone objects. Due to the acidic nature of the soil in this region, human remains cannot be retrieved. "Things such as bones simply decom­ pose in the soil around here," says Whyte. But, the site has pro­ vided thousands of stone flakes, which are chips detached while making tools, and spearheads. Ironically, according to Whyte, most people who find spear­ heads, mistake them for arrow­ heads. A good indicator is spearheads often have a tail, while arrowheads do not. The Hayes Site's time is running out. The land has a new owner, who will be build­ ing on it soon. But this does not bother Whyte as much as one would think. "Sites have to be destroyed. We can't preserve all of the past forever," says Whyte. He is just happy to have had the time to discover what the site had to offer. Whyte warns that the Hayes Site is on private prop­ erty, so not everyone is allowed to just walk up and start dig­ ging. "I want people to under­ stand that it isn't right to dis­ turb it. You could destroy what we have worked hard to accom­ plish," says Whyte. So the next time you see a movie about archaeology, re­ member the many archaeolo­ gists who are discovering the secrets of the past right in your back yard - literally.

Sigma Kappa �The Appalachian 5 Page 8 Dustbowl continued from page 6 Curtooiis The production department has built a deck for 'The Grapes of Wrath" out of wood beams that covers the entire stage. This was done to give a more rustic effect, since much of the play takes place in the dustbowl of Oklahoma across the United States to California. Besides being rustic, the deck also has practical uses. For example, a camp fire in the play is represented by a trap door cut out of the deck that houses a miniature fan, a light, and strips of multicolored silk. All this was built into the deck by the production department... four times. Four times? This is so that each time there would be a scene with a camp fire, the actors don't have to go to the exact same spot of the stage. This attention to detail and hard work is nothing new for the production department. "Everyone has been going at it together and piece by piece," says Matt N. Scialdone, a junior from Charlotte who is one of several production assistants. Matt and the rest of the production department have also put together a threedimensional replica truck that has to support 11 people (that's over half a ton of weight!). The truck is made mainly out of wood and is pulled along the stage by 340 feet of rope along specially constructed tracks. Casters for the truck were shipped especially from Florida State to ensure the highest quality at the most affordable cost. Everything for the truck was built from the ground up by students all for something that will be used a total of around 20 minutes in the play. Now that's attention to detail. Another example of attention to detail would be the firearms . . . actual guns that will be fired during the play (using blank ammunition, of course). Not to worry — the weapons are cleaned, inspected, and stored securely by Marc A. Hurst, the special effects technician and a theater major from Orlando, Fla. Marc hands the actor the prop at the beginning of the scene and the actor hands it back to Marc when the scene is over. This is one of the things that is coordinated by C. Bradley Fairbanks, stage manager for "The Grapes of Wrath." Fairbanks is a senior theater major from Jacksonville, N.C. who got into theater for the excitement. He says, "Nothing compares to the adrenaline rush when you hear 'places for top of act one!"' Fairbanks also says that it is "great to be part of an ensemble like this because, like the story, the struggle of the group can make magic." This sort of magic happens not only in "The Grapes of Wrath," but in most every theater production. Behind the action, there is always a group of dedi­ cated, hard-working people that come together for all the audience gets to enjoy. You can enjoy the results of these people's efforts by getting your tickets from the Valborg Theater box office located on the back of Chapell Wilson from 2 to 5 p. m. during box office hours. Tickets are $3 for students, $5 for nonstudents and have been selling fast, so don't miss your chance to see this excit­ ing production.

Our defensive help was strong and junior Kelley M.Guinn of Atlanta made some great saves for us in goal to keep things close." The Mountaineers battled into the sec­ ond overtime period, but with 118:00 gone in the match, Monroe scored her second goal of the game to take the win for the Camels. Appalachian, only in its second year of varsity competition, was led by Satterfield, who scored her team leading fifth goal, and Guinn, who tallied 14 saves. However, the Camels did outshoot the Mountaineers 31-18. The Apps fell to 2-8-1 on the year, while Campbell improved to 7-2-2.

Tech Matt McKenzie Reporter I The Appalachian State men's and women's cross country team competed last Saturday in meets across the Southeast. The men's team placed 15th of 27 at the Auburn Invitational in Auburn, Alabama, while the women's team placed 5th of 6 in the Virginia Tech Invitational in Blacksburg, Va. The Lady Mountaineers, now 612, had a score of 113. Wake Forest, who is in the top five in the nation, won the race with a score of 18. Texas A8tM, currently in the top 15, was second with 68. They were fol­ lowed by East Carolina, host Virginia Tech, Appalachian State and East Tennessee State. Christina R. Olson was the top Appalachian State runner, finishing 8th with a time of 18:44. Jenny A.Chase placed 24th, followed by Corie E. Fuchs and Jannica M. Hjertman, who placed 27th and 28th. "It was a great course and hard, so not many people are going to run fast times on it. The competi­ tion was excellent," said coach John T. Weaver. The freshman runners also came through for the Lady Mountaineers. "Two of our freshmen girls really ran well and are beginning to develop. Our top four also ran well, but a couple of girls had a bad day also," said Weaver. The Furman Invitational is the next challenge for the Lady Harriers on October 14 in Greenville, S.C. 'This will be our first chance to run against Furman, who is the defend­ ing conference champion, and we are running well so I'm really looking for­ ward to it," said Weaver. The Auburn Invitational was the largest cross country meet in the Southeast, with many nationally ranked teams running. "I thought our guys recorded their times very well against the nation's best," said coach Mike Curcio. The Mountaineers were hoping to finish in the top half, but lightning struck twice. When the race began, Appalachian State's top runner Tommy Holland got crowded on the first turn and lost his shoe. It put him so far behind, he was forced to drop out. Then Ian T. Finn had to drop out because he was diagnosed with mononucleosis. John Austin will move up to take his place. "Those two factors just killed us," said Curcio. Seth J, Peoples was the first Mountaineer to cross the line with a time of 25:00 and finished 9th. Chris D. Huffstickler and Will R. Dickerson both ran personal bests in the meet. The meet was won by Air Force Academy followed by North Carolina, Alabama, Southern Illinois and James Madison. The men's team has a big event at the National Invitational in Univer­ sity Park, Pa coming up on Oct. 14. "This gives us a chance to run against more nationally ranked teams. I'm sure we'll be double-knotting our shoes there," said Curcio.

In an Utopian society, these over­ paid athletes would band together and tell us, "We've decided to take a pay cut, across the board. Just give us about 15% of what we've been earn­ ing. That's plenty. Then there will be more money for education and health and the thousand other things that are lacking. Sound good?" As a matter of fact, that does.

Scandals at the North Carolina School le Arts and at UNC-Chapel Hill have ted this new consideration. According to an article in The Win6 pm- Salem Journal, the scandal at the N.C. 3 pm- ol of the Arts surfaced in July when a er student filed a lawsuit against the ol and two of its dance instructors. The i at 265-! ;nt alleged that one of the teachers had -ed him when he was 16 and that the other ler had encouraged the affair. The stualleged that the teachers had ruined his e career. According to Catherine L. Wilkinson, of Appalachian State University's faculty te and head catalog librarian, the probt UNC-Chapel Hill existed between a fac­ ulty member and a graduate student whom he had as a mistress. The graduate student went to conferences with him and her travel money was paid by grants. "The Board of Governors issued a fact finding request about amorous relationships on campus," said Dr. Peter W. Petschauer, head of Faculty Assembly and Appalachian history professor. All chancellors in the North Caro­ lina system are to report back to them by Oct. 31 regarding how their faculty senates feel about the issue. Wilkinson said Chancellor Francis T. Borkowski asked for consensus about the policy from the chair of faculty senate, the president of staff council, and president of the Student Government Association. The Appalachian faculty handbook has a statement which addresses professional ethics and relationships, said Wilkinson. She said it does not talk about consensual relation­ ships, but it does discuss sexual harassment. "Something needs to be added,' said Wilkinson. "It is unsufficient." The staff handbook does not include anything about relationships, said Amy B. Winebarger, president of staff council. "It does have a component on sexual harassment, but it does not address consensual relationships," said Winebarger. The university does not have an ex­ plicit definition and it is only implied in the faculty handbook, she said. "In the long run it would probably help everybody and safeguard them in certain situations," said Winebarger. She feels if power is involved in the relationship, it should remain professional. Wilkinson said the faculty generally feels that a relationship between a professor and student in his class or between an assis­ tant should be banned. The disagreement oc­ curs when the relationship involves a profes­ sor and any student on campus. One concern about the issue is tak­ ing advantage of the student, said Wilkinson. She said it may be hard to tell if the student is really agreeing or if he is afraid to do other­ wise because of lack of support in class.

(Photo by Robert Parriott) vPPalachian Family Weekend activities at Appala­ chian State University drew a large crowd of prospective students for campus tours and the football game last weekend. "It was one of the largest crowds we've ever had,"said T. Joseph Watts, director of admissions. "Farthing Auditorium was packed for our information session." Mark R. Dreibelbis, assistant athletic director, approximately 16,000 people attended Saturday's game against East Tennessee State University. Prospective students and their fami­ lies were invited to attend an information ses­ sion, a barbecue dinner, a computing work­ shop, residence hall open houses, an informa­ tion fair and the football game. "This (family weekend) is something that answers all their questions," said Darcy A. Hull, president of Student Ambassadors. The Ambassadors are responsible for conduct­ ing tours and answering questions about Ap­ palachian. Hull estimated that each of the 38 Ambassadors conducted five tours. "It makes a big difference when they (students considering Appalachian) hear about Appalachian from other students," said Hull. "We do a great job of convincing them to come here." Laurie Lyda Reporter Hiition increases and graduation re­ quirements are two phrases that can strike fear into the heart of any college student. The Ap­ palachian Academic Advising Center is on hand to help prevent the stressing of your nervous system and your bank account. The advising process begins during orientation as freshmen plan their first semes­ ter at Appalachian. The usual plan is for the orientation advisor to continue advising those students throughout their time in general stud­ ies. For those students whose advisors do change, a new advisor is assigned within two weeks of the fall semester. This additional guidance will be es­ pecially helpful as students are faced with a 25 percent tuition increase when they exceed the 128 hours allowed to obtain a four-year degree. According to Carter Hammett-McGary, assistant director for academic advising, Ap­ palachian has no exceptions to the maximum hour programs for each degree-granting col­ lege. The maximum hour allowance for double majors is still being researched and no ruling has been made. According to Hammett-McGary, be­ ginning in January, once a student attains 30 hours (including freshman English credit) and has a 2.0 grade point average, they may de­ clare their major. The student then fills out an official form to have their files moved to the college of their major. Once core requirements have been reviewed for completion, the folder will be sent to the dean of the college who then sends it on to your major department who will assign you an advisor. In the last year of study, the dean of the college will do a degree check to make sure all graduation requirements are met. Each full-time advisor handles 350400 cases and sees each of those students at least once a semester. "We are looking for ways to cut down on caseloads and provide the services that stu­ dents need," said Hammett-McGary. "It is our goal for each full-time advisor to have 300 stu­ dents." To help students choose their career path, the advising center has a "Developmen­ tal Intrusive Approach" which is used in con­ junction with Peer Career and the Learning Assistance Program. "We want to make it so they [stu­ dents] are making better decisions up front," said Hammett-McGary. "We also have the University Advis­ ing Council which is a working group of people whose intent is to improve advising across cam­ pus," said Hammett-McGary. The Council is made up of a representative from general stud­ ies, admissions, the registrar, each degreegranting college and the school of music. The council meets once a month to talk about new academic procedures, review old ones and come up with new ideas. Hammett-McGary said it is also im­ portant for students to understand their new academic world and be able to plan their col­ lege careers to their best personal advantage. "I feel that students should be taught how to figure their grade point average so they can see where they are now and where they want to go," said junior Karen E. Parker of Cherryville. Hammett-McGary also said that students should read the notes in the registra­ tion bulletins and become familiar with the Appalachian Bulletin Catalog. Hammett-McGary said that any stu­ dents interested in these and other skills, such as the art of efficiently managing hours, should suggest a program to their Resident Assistant. The advising center is also able to help Appa­ lachian students understand and access the academic resources available on campus. Index Page 2... News. New state budget affects local governments.

The issue of city planning has become a hot topic around Boone since the town, as well as the univer­ sity, is growing . Some residents are concerned that Boone is getting to big Pete Abernathy Reporter The Appalachian State Uni­ versity Local Government Alumni As­ sociation had its third annual meet­ ing at the Quality Inn in Boone on Fri­ day to discuss the effects of the new state budget on local governments. Some of the noteable speak­ ers in attendance were Rep. Betsy Cochran, Rep. John Weatherly and Special Assistant to Govenor Hun' Steve Metcalf. Metcalf, as well a: many of the other conference atten dants, is a graduate of Appalachian . Cochran addressed the issue of annexation in small communities. Cochran also gave some of her own ideas about how to keep the smaller communities in our state from losing the charm that attracts people to them. "I do not think what is hap­ pening here in Boone is too wonder­ ful," said Cochran. "I would encour­ age all city planners to keep the charm of their small towns that attracted for its own good. Weatherly, who has constitu­ ents in Cleveland County, addressed the issues of how the state budget was divided among state and local govern­ ments and to programs sponsored by Potential impact of Congressional budget action on North Carolina • reduction of medical services to children • loss of state jobs • loss of local government jobs • reduction of local sales tax • reduction in instructional/educational services • reduction in long term care services for the elderly • increased demand on public sector for services • reduction of housing assistance for the poor • reduction in nutritional services to children Dating the state. According to Weatherly the state is going to cut taxes, but this raises the concerns of some local gov­ ernment leaders that they will be forced to be the bad guys because they will be forced to raise taxes. Julie Anne Wray, a junior from Shelby, N.C. commented on what Weatherly had to say. "I'm from Shelby, and I have learned a lot about how state and local government works in Cleveland County. I especially liked hearing Rep. Weatherly speak, since he is from Cleveland County, he had some great ideas about how to make our local governments run a lot smoother." Cochran added that the state of education in North Carolina schools was encouraging. "I have never been so encour­ aged about the chance for improve­ ment in North Carolina public schools as I am right now," Cochran said. According to Dr. Marvin Hoffman, head of the political science department, there are over100 gradu­ ates of the political science department who are currently working as city and county managers in North Carolina. continued from Page 1 as a kind of conduct for farnltv It might include relationships from fac­ ulty to student, student to faculty, fac­ ulty to faculty, faculty to assistant, etc. If the relationship is not welcomed, it will be a problem. The person with more power or in a higher position of control will often have the advantage, said Petschauer. The senates of each school in the North Carolina system and the Faculty Assembly will draft a statement of general principles by Oct. 31. The senates who do not reply will be pun­ ished by not having any input in the policy. UNC Attorney Dick Robinson will analyze the policy to see how it fits into things like tenure and due process. "It all has to work together," said Petschauer.

As one of the three invited speakers in the biological sciences section, Nieman presented "Excersise and Immunology," the results of his on-going studies of how excercise affects athletes' health and perfor­ mance. His research has concluded that athletes are at risk for upperrespiratory infections during heavy training periods and the first two weeks after marathon-type race events. Although more studies are needed to determine how and why heavy exercise suppresses the im­ mune system, Nieman cautions ath­ letes to practice good hygiene to lower their risk for infection and to avoid heavy exertion during an ill­ ness.

Managing Editor Imagine, if you can, that you are driving down a dark, two-lane highway in New Hampshire in the early spring of 1996. In the distance you see a sign in front of a shady convention center. The sign becomes readable as you near: "For the first time in four years, Slick Willy is defending his undefeated title." Ifs too tempting...you park in the crowded lot to go inside and take a look. Five dollars at the door seems rea­ sonable, so you buy popcorn, too. The "match" is already underway as you find your seat. Bob Dole has slipped and is down for the count, but he continues to throw sloppy clots at the other mud-covered contestants: Bill Clinton, Phil Gramm, and 13 others. Some are so caked in brown, they are barely visible. Welcome to modem campaigning. A mud bath which staueu with snippets of dirt dug up from the past, and made wet by the public's drooling chops, hungry for more filth. People of America are fed up with the politics in our country. They say it has gone to the dogs. Issues are no longer discussed. The only thing that determines the out­ come of any election, some will claim, is the one who ends up cleanest, wins. They will also say that politicians and the media are to blame. Get real. Human nature is base, and people are attracted to the unpleasant things they say they can't stand to see.

How about a calendar hanging somewhere in your house, apartment or residence hall? Do you know someone who would crumble into a heap on the floor if they lost their planner? Nearly every­ one I know has a daily planner or calendar. From the time they wake up to the time they turn off their light, they are on a "schedule."

What if the only sched­ uled thing to do was to live your life unscheduled, un­ planned and totally spontaneous. These days, I think calendars and all of the other stuff have become too important. No longer is there a "live by the seat of your pants" type attitude. Perhaps life has be­ come too focused. People no longer live day by day, rather it's half-hour by half-hour. Planners are now such a large part of people's ability to cope with reality that they would literally be lost without one. What if, for just one day, people took their planners, calendars, and daily routines and stuffed them under their bed? Seriously, when was the last time vou heard or said "Yeah, what the hell, you only live once"? Sure, you have probably said it, but did you truly mean it? Think about the absolute true meaning of "you only live once." Wow! Soak life up, people, don't sit around planning for it! Okay, what if you did something totally out of char­ acter, something definitely not "you," only for the sheer concept of spontaneity? This vacation from the reality of your identity is not so difficult to take, and at times it can see spontaneous page 4 What was his platform stand on Medicare? The platform issues are out there, and politicians want to stress those. The media picked up on those goals and wanted to inform the public of them. The public, how­ ever, wants to know who harassed whom and how their home life was as a child. People say they are fed up with negative ads and want them to stop, but the vicious cycle that brought them to such prominence is in full force; they will be hard to stop. People think poorly of politicians who run them, but the negative ads are the ones remembered. The more they are recalled, the more the public comes to believe them, and in turn think worse of politicians. They are like a bad habit and the public has to have its fix. It's time for the public to own up to their own faults. People listen selectively and what excites them catches their ears. Americans are more than happy to point out the dirt under politicians' fingernails, but they don't notice the full slice of mud pie they just ordered hanging off their lips. Now the question is: will you be having dessert? H ^ 8 1 ~'M&8&8B8BtigGi Eliminate the |Pell Grant p John Nolte Columnist The Pell Grant needs to be eliminated. Just as this welfare-like handout is the perfect symbol of what is wrong in our society, its voluntary elimination would sym­ bolize a society that has gotten a grip on itself and be­ come more considerate of others. Welfare is welfare. The work-capable single mother sitting at home in an Oprah-coma, the large company getting tax subsidies, and the healthy able-bodied student on the Pell Grant all contribute to an immoral tax burden paid by the work­ ing class. The Pell Grant should be turned into the Pell Loan "so no one is denied access to tuition and at the same time this ridiculous and indefensible give-away program is killed. I would like to know who thought the Ameri­ can people were so undertaxed that we should give away college educationsas though Constitutionally mandated. The same goals can be achieved with loans. Making our youngest and healthiest citizens pay back tuition money is not only fair but a healthy responsible message. I'm not claiming the moral high ground here. Trust me, a few years ago if given an opportunity to get free money from the government I'd have been the most shameless one in the room. But Tm told that at one time in this country charity was a last resort and that people actually took pride in doing things on their own. Todayit seems to be the complete opposite. We grow up be­ lieving the government owes us something. The sellers of this snake oil are the out of touch. They consist of politicians and bureaucrats empowered by government dependence, college students who have yet to have their paychecks mugged, academics who are really just col lege students with stricter attendance policies, union workers who blackmail companies with demands that exclude the poor from purchasing their overpriced goods and celebrities who are not affected by taxes. Regard less of intentions these people have no idea what it's like out there in the real world. I spent eight years of my adult life in the heart of Milwaukee's inner-city struggling with the rest of the working class to eek out a living. These are not "the rich." They are just the nine-to-fivers who have to work until May just to pay their year's tax' s, and thus meet the demands of an increasingly imperialistic government and lazy misguided individuals, like my former self, who think they're entitled to what they didn't earn.

Would reinstituting the draft really strengthen our country and help our young people build character? No. First, the mili­ tary is not good for everyone, and it shouldn't be.

The United States is not in a vulnerable position, in a military sense.

People seem to underrate the beauty of spontaneity. Spontaneity is a tool that can open doors for you. So now, you're probably getting a little scared of this "live by your seat" thing anyway. AH HA! Many worthwhile things are attained by risks. The first step you took as a child was a huge risk. You could have tripped into the corner of the couch and suffered brain damage for the rest of your life. But you didn't suffer brain damage, and now you walk like a pro! The same thing goes for riding a bike, swim­ ming, and skiing. Hey, I bet your first kiss was a risk and now look at how orally talented you are. So here's my point - the next time you want that outfit but really "shouldn't" buy it- do it anyway, you deserve it! The next time you want to ,e'A| V call him or her, hey, AT&T goes both ways, pick up the phone!

The next time you look in the mir­ ror and need a "change," invest in some good ole' cheap spontaneity. I guarantee you'll at least have some good juicy stories. Spontaneity is nothing to push away or cross off, it is something to be sucked up and en­ joyed. So live by the seat of your pants, take that crazy road trip you have only dreamed about, heck, call up your parents and tell them you love them. You only have a short while. Make the most of it while you can, for tomorrow may be full of regret for the risks you didn't take today.

Besides being used as bait for the oppo­ site sex, dogs are often used as spare partners for games of frisbee. Face it, dogs are such a part of campus life, they are almost mascots. Everyone seems to know, or at least recognize, some of the dogs on the Mall. In fact, anyone could tell you which dogs are regulars on cam­ pus and which ones are just there for a brief visit. Dogs provide a homey and laid-back at­ mosphere for all to enjoy. "There is nothing better than sitting on the Mall between classes smoking and watch­ ing the dogs," says Charlotte native sophomore Brian C. Carpenter. "With­ out dogs, the Mall would lack person­ ality." Like a close-knit group of friends, the dogs always seem ready to play with one another.

Since the demise of such entities like the the Beatles and Fleetwood Mac, few artists have dis­ played the strength, the talent, and the will to compose a work worth more than a couple of radio-friendly singles. Nowadays it seems that only the most determined artists have enough to say and enough originality with which to say it. To avoid falling into the abyss full of redundant and untalented "radio pied pipers," such as Hootie, Dave Matthews and Spin Doc­ tors, the music of today needs to fol­ low the redeeming qualities of the ex­ ceptions to the mold... your R.E.M.'s, your Fleetwood Mac's, your Sting's, and your Jude Cole's. Jude Cole? Yes, Jude Cole. Similar to albums like "Drive," "Rumours," and "Ten Summoner's Tales," Cole's recently released "I Don't Know Why I Act This Way" not only shows an understanding of the concept of an album (rather than for the concept of putting out two catchy tunes sandwiched between eight or nine intolerable fillers), it treats us to about an hour's worth of memorable, well-written music. Some people say that a good art­ ist borrows, but a great artist steals. With this effort, Jude Cole falls into the category of the latter. Upon lis­ tening to songs like "Move if You're Goin'," "Heaven's Last Attempt," and 'Joe," it becomes apparent that Cole is not simply paying interest on a sound that Blues Traveler, Cat Stevens, and James Taylor lent him; he picked their pockets clean. With a voice that is a cross between Lenny Kravitz (with­ out the tendency to say "baby" after every other word) and Matthew Sweet, Cole holds the listener's atten­ tion from start to finish. "The first time I gave it a listen, I 'was just going to hear a few songs to see if I had gotten my money's worth. But I ended up listening to the whole album," said freshman Matt Q. Thackston. brings back the art of an album 'Seven' is to die Cole Rich with themes dealing with salvation, the rat race of life, religion, love and inspiration, "I Don't Know Why 1 Act This Way" gives a series of tales that provoke emotion and capti­ vate the listener as if they were straight from the vault of the Brothers Grimm. On 'Joe" Cole sings, "1 go to church on Sunday morning/ come home and beat my wife/ my name is Joe, and you know me/ I've lived here all my life/ what a life." While reflecting on many of the societal attitudes promi­ nent today, Cole displays an innate ability for song writing that's almost as bold and poetic as that of Michael Stipe or Sting. Cole's album is a hauntingly beautiful collection of songs. Thanks to the pulse Cole's heartfelt poetry gives each song, the listener is forced to sing along. While Cole may not be as well known as say Sting, he more than holds his own when it comes to poetry placed to music.

Assistant Sports Editor The Mountaineer football team utilized a fourth quarter comeback on Saturday to squeek out a 30-23 win over East Tennessee State. Before the game, ASU head coach Jerry Moore stated, "This game marks the first of eight tough battles in the run for a league championship. We know we have to be ready each and every week, despite the records, the rankings, and the expectations." Appalachian proved to be ready, scoring 17 consecutive points in the second half, after being down 23-13 late in the third quarter. A six yard touchdown catch by Jeff Vollmer knot­ ted the score at 23 all and Carlos Horton ran it in from two yards out to give ASU their first lead of the day. The Buccaneer's final drive was stopped short by a Dexter Coakley inter­ ception on third down and 18 as the Moun­ taineers remained perfect on the season. The Mountaineers got off to a slow start as ETSU jumped out on the first possession of the game. Keyed by a 29-yard reception by freshman Edward Swint, the Buccaneers came away with a 48-yard Jerry Chapman field goal. The 3-0 lead was the first time this year that ASU had been behind. Two possessions later, a partially blocked punt gave ETSU good field position at the Mountaineer 46. Six plays later Chapman got his second field goal of the day, this one 32 yards. Down 6-0 the Mountaineers came back, with their first extended drive of the day. Led by Otis Smith's two catches and the running of Damon Scott, ASU got its first points off a 33-yard Jay Sutton field goal. The Buccaneers came back with the passing of Greg Ryan and receiveing of B.J. Adigun. ETSU moved the ball 69 yards in five plays, highlighted by a 23-yard Adigun touch­ down catch to give the Bucs a 13-3 lead. The Bucs would score again after a 32yard interception return by Derek Fudge gave ETSU great field position. Two plays later, Adigun scored his second TD on a 15-yard grab, putting the Bucs up 20-3. However, the Mountaineers fought back. Led by the passing of Scott Satterfield and a bevy of receivers, the Apps went 71 yards on six plays, including a 28-yard touchdown catch During the intermission, the Apps re­ grouped and came out to dominate the sec­ ond half. The Mountaineer offense scored its third field goal of the day on a 27-yarder by Sutton. The Apps moved the ball the length of the field with the running of Satterfield. The Bucs came right back however and scored their only points of the second half on a 47-yard Chapman field goal. The lead was once again stretched to 10. That lead proved to be short lived as the Mountaineers scored on another Sutton kick, this time from 32 yards out to cut the lead to 23-16. The Mountaineer defense took over the rest of the game, giving up only one more first down to the Buccaneers. The App offense also came alive in the fourth quarter after an interception by Clarence Sutton. The Mountaineers moved the ball 50 yards on nine plays finishing with a touchdown by Vollmer. The lead was now gone as the Apps tied the score. After a three and out by the Bucs, Appalachian's offense moved the ball again. Led by Aldwin Lance and Horton, the Apps went 53 yards on 11 piays, including Horton's two-yard run. The Mountaineers held on to the 30-23 lead and improved to 4-0 on the year, while the Buccaneers fell to 0-5. Appalachian's defense was led by Joe DiBernardo with 10 tackles and Coakley with an interception and a forced fumble. The defense held ETSU to just 93 second half yards, including six in rushing. The Buc­ caneers were held to just 40 yards rushing on the game. The Mountaineer offense was led by the passing of Satterfield, who had his best game of the year 20-36-2 for 239 yards. The offense also ran for 186 yards through the com­ bined running of the entire backfield. The Mountaineers proved worthy of their number two national ranking, by pulling out the come from behind win on a day that they did not play very well. "We just have to prepare ourselves for a battle every Saturday the rest of the way, no let downs, no lapses," added Moore. The Apps will continue their quest, trav­ eling to Greenville, SC next Saturday to take on Furman. Game time is set for 1:30.

(Photo by Rheti, Ladies take runner-up at Charlestc Mike Daniels Reporter The Appalachian State women's volleyball team extended their winning streak to 11 in a row before losing to UNC-Greensboro in the finals of the College of Charleston tournament. The win on Thursday against East Tennesse State, plus the 4-1 record in the tournament, brought the Lady Apps record to 11-8 overall and 3-0 in the conference. First up for the Mountaineers was East Tennesse State last Thursday at home. The Lady Apps won in straight sets 3-0 and were sparked by a 10-point run in the final game. A key factor for the Mountaineers in this game was the fact that starter Miriam Sealey was unable to play due to her shoulder injury. The team showed it could still play impressively without one of its leaders. Coach Dave Markland called the match "another big win." On Friday, the Mountaineers traveled to Charleston, South Carolina to compete in the eightteam College of Charleston Invitational. The Lady Apps cruised to a 2-0 record on Friday with 3-0 sweeps of both Western Carolina and Sti only tough game for Appalachian game game against Western Carolina when the eers had to go to extra points to win after the previous game 15-0.

Players grumble about the fact that offensive players seem to have more of a blanket of protection, but penalizing some late hits is necesssary. Never mind that Favre him­ self admitted that he would have been high-fiving Lloyd for the hit, had they been teammates. Lloyd has criticized the NFL for being two-faced about big hits. The league gives penalties and fines, but also gains more revenue by putting together videos of these plays. Yeah, two-faced, and with two fists - two fists full of money.

Though both teams had their share of shot opportunities, the Eagles were able to make the most of theirs, winning 3-0. The loss marked the first conference loss of the season for the Mountaineers and the first loss in history to Georgia Southern. The defeat dropped Appalachian's season record to an even .500 at 5-5. "We need to get more leadership from our nine seniors," Mountaineer Coach Art Rex said. "We can still win the conference. The opportunity is still there. We just have to win out the rest of our games." Georgia Southern got things go­ ing at the 44:41 mark of the first half as Noel Kierans found the back of the net off a pass from Pat Parris. The goal would be the only score of the half for either team. In the second half, the same pair of Eagles teamed up for a goal. This time, Parris was on the recieving end of a Kierans pass that resulted in a shot from 18 yards out. The goal put Geor­ gia Southern ahead 2-0 in the 68th minute. Freshman Jason Russell closed the Eagle scoring with a score at the 75 minute mark. The Mountaineers were not able to muster a goal, but were able to get off 12 shots compared to 13 for GSU.

Davidson's Claudia Lombard scored the only goal of the first half at the 26:26 mark. Appalachian did not respond until the 74th minute, as Brooke Satterfield evened the count with a goal. Davidson was able to recapture the lead at the 85:00 minute mark when Lucia Plosseris shot found the net, giving the Lady Wildcats a 2-1 advantage. The Lady Mountaineers were not done, though, and kept the pressure up. In the waning moments of regu­ lation, confusion in front of the Davidson goal got the best of the Davidson keeper who knocked the ball into her own goal.

Appalachian's lone goal came from the foot of Brooke Satterfield in the 16th minute of the first half. The volley to the left side gave the Lady Mountaineers a 1-0 lead that they would carry to halftime. Farrell O'Quinn assisted on the score. The Lady Seahawks were only able to come up with four shots on goal in the second half but two found the back of the net, giving UNC-W a 2-1 advantage. Katy Shearon took three of the team's four shots after the break and scored both of the Lady Seahawk goals. Appalachian stayed active in the second half, producing eight shots on goal, but the team was not able to capitalize. The final score stood 2-1 UNC-W.

Hayes said anyone caught in the town of Boone riding a bicycle without a t will be fined $50 for violation of the law. This applies to bicycle riding lere in Boone, in a parking lot as well as on public streets. Once ticketed and fined, the offender has 10 days to pay the fine and take :eipt to the Boone Police Department. e helmet law, according to Hayes, is a "continuous policy." It is not a camto be pushed publicly for results and then no longer maintained. Hayes sed the law will be enforced continuously. the Appalachian Infirmary, Dr. William Derrick said no severe head injuries Ken treated there due to bicycle accidents. However, he also explained the ;evere head injuries are rushed by ambulance to the hospital and treated In his own experience, Derrick said he treated approximately two to three head injuries at the infirmary last year, but he pointed out that he is only )ctor on a staff of three. Other doctors at the infirmary may have treated iccident victims. Derrick said it only takes one serious injury to cause someone to lose ife. He believes in the helmet law because the cdSt of head injuries is so "The costs can be astronomical to society," he said. "The recovery for head is is quite prolonged." hough many believe the helmet law to be an infringement on their freedom, k views it as an aid to the safety of bicyclers, much like the seatbelt law I in the safety of drivers and passengers in automobiles, foley Umstead, a junior from Greensboro, has a different opinion. He said, t about the people who can't afford the helmet? It's not a safety issue, it's a National Product production issue.

Suzanne Carter Reporter One main objective of the Mountain AIDS Support Council (M.A.S.C.) is to increase knowledge of AIDS on the Appalachian cam­ pus. "AIDS is a universial problem and everyone needs to be informed of its damage," said Dori Gold, program coordinator of M.A.S.C. "It's not just a one person disease, it is everyone's concern and people need to be educated on how to prevent AIDS from spread­ ing." M.A.S.C. is a non-profit, service or­ ganization dedicated to improving the quality of life of those affected by HIV and AIDS, and to educating the community about HIV and AIDS. M.A.S.C., which was originally founded in conjunction with the Winston-Sa­ lem AIDS Task Force, educates members of the community about AIDS, how it is transmitted, and forms a support circle for those who have AIDS or are close to someone who does. M.A.S.C. is working on an open house for middle or late October, where information and people will be waiting for those interested in helping with or being helped by the organi­ zation. "College students think they can't get it (AIDS)," said Cassandra Hauser, a stu­ dent with a family membr suffering from AIDS. "Students seem to be naive about pro­ tecting themselves and others from this dis­ ease. It's here, we shouldn't ignore it. We need more education about AIDS on campus." According to the Center for Disease Control and Prevention, HIV and AIDS can be prevented through methods of safe sex, such as absteinence or using a condom with non-oxynol 9 spermicide. HIV and AIDS can be prevented by not sharing needles through tatooing, body piercing or drug use. HIV and AIDS can be prevented by avoiding the ex­ change of body fluids such as infected blood, semen or other bodily secretions. People can not contact HIV or AIDS through casual contact, such as kissing, hand­ shaking or using the same dishes as someone who is infected. According to Appalachian Physican Dr. Patricia Geiger, anonymous and confiden­ tial HIV testing is given through the infirmary every two weeks by Becky Green, a Watauga Health Department Health Educator. Green, a member of the M.A.S.C. Board of Directors, will be returning to ASU's infirmary for free HIV testing on Oct. 10. Stu­ dents must call and schedule an appointment with the infirmary's appointment secretary for testing. An end to the mile- long drop/add line Pamela Griffin Reporter Appalachian State University has been using the Telephone Registration System (TRS) for students to register for classes, drop and add classes, and determine grades since spring of 1995. Although many other universities, such as UNC-Chapel Hill and NC State, have been using the TRS for years, Appalachian has only used the system for the past two semes­ ters, making the switch from computer ori­ ented registration and long drop/add lines, to simple registration by phone. Don Rankins, associate registrar, said he has heard only positive comments, and throughout the whole registration process has received only one complaint. That complaint was because there were not enough openings available for a particular section to accomodate all students needing the class. "I have to believe the system is very productive in handling registration, since we've had the second largest freshman class enroll­ ment, the biggest on-campus enrollment, and with all of the calls have been able to handle over 4,000 students in registration and 9,000 in drop/add," Rankins said. Whereas in the past, students have had to wait for hours in the drop/add line, the^ are now able to call from their residence hall, apartment, or off-campus home to change their schedules. Whereas in the past, students have had to wait for hours in the drop/add line, they are now able to call from their residence hall, apartment, or off- campus home to change their schedules. A help line is also available in which an operator can dial a student into the sys­ tem. "It is nice to not have to stand in line," said senior Sally Hoover. "I have always got­ ten through and I have also been able to get the classes I needed." Sophomore Paul Mortenson agrees that the TRS is more effective than the com­ puter system. "I think it's great because it's so convenient. It was such a pain to have to wait in line. Being able to sign up for classes from my own apartment saved me alot of time and sress." Holly Taylor, senior, enjoys the con­ venience of the TRS, but said she was a little concerned that freshmen may have difficulty understanding the process. "I had trouble at first figuring out my pin number and advisor number," said Tif­ fany Harvey, "but after reading the insructions more carefully, I understood how everything worked." According to Rankins, one of the main concerns when the computer system was in use was that off-campus students and those who commute had to come on campus to change their schedules and register. Now those students are able to simply call from see End page 2 PPalachian is published with support from Appalachian's Center for Student Involvement and Leadership.

According to Robyn Martin, SGA vice president, eight seats have not been filled. Three of the seats are offcampus positions but are open to any­ one who wants to apply. "The seats are open on a first come, first serve basis," said Martin. Students interested in becoming sena­ tors need to pick up a petition, which requires a minimum of 100 signatures. Students must also have a GPA of at least 2.2 and be a resident of the hall they are representing. The senate is made up of 39 offcampus, 38 on-campus senators and 12 cabinet members. Each residence hall is represented by two senators. There are currently two available seats in Cone, one at Appalachian Heights, one in Justice and one in Coltrane.

The adult students are happy with the TRS, saying it facilitated more convenient registration. Professors are excited about the TRS, as well. "Being out of state, I think the TRS is extremely efficient," said Lynn Cable Wilson, a professor in the education department. "I've had a lot of success with it." The orientation staff and advisors who work directly with the students have reported all positive feedback from the students, said Rankins. The Ambassadors and Peer Leaders say the TRS is definitely an asset. "Because we have had such positive results and everyone is excited about the TRS," said Rankins, "we have looked for other obvious ways to use the TRS. We will begin using it for students to obtain information on the grade system, financial aid, and from the cashier's office." Rankins said students will soon be able to find out the kind of financial aid they are receiving and their tuition due through the system. Freshmen, get involved writing for The Appalachian.

Generation X is so tired of being made into a spectacle that to include the term in a title would seem too "mainstream." Would you have read this article if it was titled "Generation X: Coping With TV Apathy?" Genera­ tion X doesn't go for sellouts. Who are these Generation Xers? We are just trying to define and look out for ourselves in a world that holds hands with the past as it embraces the future. We want the best without trying to have it all — leave that to the baby boomers. Any channel-surfing of the 6:30 news will bring a plethora of topics with which we may choose to interest ourselves. Nowadays, there are topics that qualify as both grave concerns and deep mysteries. Take, for example, such world news as Bosnia, the middle east, or Russia. Not many people can tell you who is fighting whom, nor that it matters to them. This is not to say that these issues aren't serious, but how do they affect my age group? They don't. Don't feel bad if you can't give the ideology of a Serbian, Palestinian, or Yeltsin. The Gen X consensus is that the different warring tribes have hated each other for so many centuries that no amount of American intellectualizing will ever have any serious effect. As far as we're concerned, just let them duke it out and save us the money and trouble. So what about the home front? We've got politics, money, and anything else the press thinks is news. These issues are rich with complexities, and volumes have al­ ready been written about them. But what's in it for me? Less than you may think. It seems that politics is one big popularity contest that has to do more with how someone appears than what they actually stand for.

Jennifer Burleson ASU Box 15812 Protecting pornography To the Editor: I couldn't agree more with Steven Mackay that, as reprehensible as it is, pornography is protected under the First Amendment. I also agree that putting pornography on the same level with rape is ridiculous, and it trivializes the real tragedy of sexual violence. However, perhaps Mr. Mackay should spend some time living life as a woman does before he starts pass­ ing judgments on how certain things should affect her. Maybe Mr. Mackay would be "driven to tears by a picture of Cindy Crawford or a copy of 'Play­ boy" " as well, if every time he saw one he was reminded, as women are, that his worth is judged on his physical appearance. Perhaps he is not aware of the disorder anorexia in which a person, usually a female, literally starves herself to death trying to at­ tain "the look" of Cindy Crawford. Maybe Mr. Mackay isn't aware of the high percentage of 13-year old girls who are already dieting because soci­ ety has socialized them to believe they must be skinny to be happy. Maybe he doesn't know that 75 to 80 percent of women under 30 feel they have not succeeded at fulfilling society's expec­ tations. They feel guilt and shame, thinking they have not worked hard enough to make themselves into society's ideal of physical beauty. Women spend their lives trying to achieve a look that isn't even real. Maybe next time Mr. Mackay sees an air-brushed waif of a model on her hands and knees on the cover of a magazine, he will understand a little better why it drives some women to tears.

Her work at the conference is important to women faculty and stu­ dents here: she devoted her time to networking with women scientists, engineers, and technicians from around the world and has brought back invaluable materials to our cam­ pus as a result of her trip to China.

To the Editor: As a student here at Appalachian, my expectation for the future is a job. I will be paid for the work I do as well as for the knowledge base acquired through my education. I have to question the reasoning of the recent decision and subsequent article "Faculty forced to pay own way." Why? Historically, students would pay professors to pass along knowledge and expertise. It is not the faculty's job to pay us. Faculty already have to pay to come to work through parking fees. Perhaps they should pay rent on the classrooms in which they teach. Given the current political climate in Raleigh, the mean-spirited decision to make faculty pay fees to use the Quinn Center and other facilities can only create animosity and low morale. Budget cuts have reached everyone. However, this student's fees were not lowered as a result of faculty being "Forced to pay own way."

Interest rates and oil prices do actually have a direct effect on our wallets, but to take the time and listen to them be explained is sim­ ply not as interesting as what's in Judge Lance Ito's mystery envelope. Generation X, along with most of the country, needs that quick fix of enter­ tainment in two seconds or less before we click that remote. Let's pretend for a moment that something like oil prices, interest rates, or economic implications of Japan's earthquake received equal time in the media with O.J., sports strikes, and Rush Limbaugh. Assuming that all these topics would have equal audi­ ences, with equal attention and thought paid to them, what would the result be? Would there be outrage at the OPEC monopoly, the Federal Reserve's power, or a record-level trade deficit? If so, would the urge be strong enough to do something other than just gripe? Some people think so, but hey, this is a only a hypothetical situa­ tion, remember? Oh yeah, one more thing about some of Generation X: big on apathy. Just who is to blame for the apa­ thy is not clear. Are our parents guilty for feeding us materialistic values while planting us in front of the tele­ vision as a substitute for real guidance? Or maybe they just wanted us to have it better than they had, and thus bruised our work ethic. Are older gen­ erations to blame because they have made their way into positions of power along with their outdated notions of morality and priority? Or is Gen X to blame; unaware of the world, uninvolved in democracy, and addicted to television? If you've read this far, you obviously care, so don't give up hope. It must be the media. Kill your television. claimed that students were for this decision. 1 am a student who was not. Only perverts see sex in Disney To the Editor: This is in response to Ken Larking's "Disney: More than meets the eye?". Well, I don't think so, or else it depends on who's eye we are talk­ ing about. Was Ken Larking watching out of sheer boredom, LOOKING for these sexual innuendoes? That's what it sounds like to me. I think he was looking way too much into these mov­ ies. Let me start with "Pocahontas." Yes, the movie did stir up quite a bit of hoopla from the media and history buffs, but from what source does Lark­ ing gather that Pocahontas was 13 when she became involved with John Smith? Smith wrote three accounts of his encounter with Pocahontas, dur­ ing all of which she was at a different age, and one at which she was be­ tween the ages of 18 and 21. A rather large debate could arise as to which account Disney based this movie on. And where does Larking get these sexual hints in "The Lion King"? For someone to see "sex" in a dust cloud, they would have to play the tape in slow motion or pause it, if it's even there. Fve seen "The Lion King" three times, and Fve never caught it. Also, while I can see someone maybe find­ ing a gay relationship between Pumbaa and Timon (emphasis on the maybe), I think the general consensus of all the fans is that they are BUDDIES — life-long FRIENDS. Not an unusual characteristic of Disney movies. Does this mean Jacques and Dusty ("Lady and the Tramp") were gay? What about Gus and Jack (the mice) in "Cinderella"? Flotsam and Jetsam ("The Little Mermaid")? Of course, I won't forget the obvious intercourse between Simba and Nala. It's not like real lions roll around and play like that without sexual contact. On to The Little Mermaid". What Larking gets out of the phrase "Dar­ ling it's better down where it's wetter," is ridiculous. Listen to the rest of the song. Sebastian is singing about the OCEAN! You know, where they lived. Correct me if I'm wrong, but most oceans are wet, last time I heard. What about the obvious orgy go­ ing on in the seven dwarfs' cottage? The "bestiality" in "Beauty and the Beast"? Did it ever occur to this guy that Disney didn't write half of the fairy tales it bases its movies on? And Pinnochio's sexually intuitive nose? Was it Disney's idea to make it grow when he "lied"? It is Disney's job to glamourize our everyday fairy tales so that they are more entertaining for children. Even if it does mean making Belle, Ariel, Jasmine, and Pocahontas applicable for the "All-Time Hottest Babes List." Big breasts, small waists, and long legs are most attractive to people thanks to society, not Disney. I don't deny that Disney's goal is to make money. That's a logical as­ sumption. What are the goals of Para­ mount, MGM/UA, 20th Century Fox, etc.? I also agree that little kids will definitely not see the sexual things you speak of in Disney movies and I seri­ ously doubt the parents will, either. I mean, come on: who really looks for dust cloud symbols when there's a stampede going on? I can't under­ stand how anybody who watches a movie for simply that purpose can see a broom as a phallic symbol or look for minute details like a minister's erection. That article is either a case of boredom, or the need for an edito­ rial to fill page space, because I be­ lieve that the only adults that look for sex in Disney movies are perverts. Save yourself the strain and go watch a porno. Let Disney fans enjoy the innocence of these cartoons. Kelly McLaughlin ASU Box 12130 Preachers continued from page 4 in Texas. Both fervently believe their sect is the superior, and discussion is usually as hard as trying to do a flip off the top rope. Though this one is a bit more of a reach, both pro-wrestling and religion have a focal area: the ring for wres­ tling and the church for evangelism (and some religions). When two wres­ tlers are outside of the ring, the rules don't really apply in the same way. The referee generally ignores the whole thing as long as they come back in the ring by a certain time. Neither wrestling nor evangelism is much fun, unless you sort of sus­ pend disbelief. Many people don't look hard enough to see that it is something of an act, while others know the big guys aren't really hitting one another, but somehow manage to ignore it. It seems to me anyone paying close at­ tention to most evangelists would also notice it was a bit odd. And perhaps there is something to be learned from those who hate the bad wrestler or Satan the most. Per­ haps, in envisioning the worst evil imaginable and fearing this horrible, encompassing darkness comes from a place inside the person. The more someone yells at that wrestler that just hit his hero with a chair, the more dia­ bolical Satan is depicted, perhaps there exists the audience most like the nemesis.

Admittedly this is not the usual prac­ tice of a college freshman, but then again, 33-year-old Bumgardner is not your usual student. Long before most "traditional" students roll out of bed and begin to complain about their 9 a.m. class, Bumgardner has prepared dinner (to be heated up later), taken the kids to school and reviewed material for her upcoming classes. It's a sight that is becoming more and more prevalent in our country: older students returning to school. Once upon a time people went from high school to college, then married and had children - just like clock­ work. However, with the changing demands placed on people in today's society, many are now forced to take one step back in order to go forward. Bumgardner is one of the 1100 or so "non-traditional" students, defined as students 25 and older, who have decided to abandon the workforce and take that step back at Appalachian. As one would suspect, the demands faced by older students returning to school are quite different from those faced by "traditional" students. While most "traditional" students rush to class everyday worrying about friends, parties and their place in the social hierarchy, the older students find themselves dealing with a set of entirely different problems. Many of these problems are stress related -- caused by the anxiety that comes with quitting a job and returning to school. "Most 'traditional' students work, but they work to support their social life. Older students are dealing with basic survival," says Happy Austin, the adult students' ad­ visor. According to Austin, many returning students are faced with serious anxieties over their financial situation and child care. Although it is not true of all "traditional" students, most do have someone to rely on. The same is not usually true for older students. Financial problems aside, schoolwork often presents a problem for returning students. Senior Frank Carey, a 31-year-old theater technology major from New York says, turning to school, one has to won­ "At first it took me a while to get into the swing of things, der why so many people are doing but now I'm used to it." it.

"I had reached as high as my education could take me. Other people were getting the pro­ motions, so I took a long, hard look at my situ­ ation and decided to go back to school," said Driggers. Appalachian Junior Art Beroth, 32, a com­ munications major from Winston-Salem, came back to school for similar reasons. After high school, Beroth worked in a travel agency for five years. He then moved on to Piedmont Airlines, which later became U.S. Air. Beroth noticed a pattern developing in both jobs. "Those who had degrees got the promotions and raises," says Beroth. After realizing this, the decision to return to school was not hard. "I just decided that I didn't want to work at a computer terminal for the rest of my life. So, I came back to school," said Beroth. Carey was in much the same position as Driggers and Beroth.

Most students have limited contact with members of the ROTC, which leads to many stereotypes. Usually students either remem ber just their high school JROTC or only know them as the peace-keepers at football games. The underlying attitude toward the ROTC is often one of dislike. In fact, many students view the ROTC as a bunch of gun-wielding barbarians. However, the goal of the ROTC program is not teaching to "go for the kill," but how to become a well-rounded individual. The ROTC program stresses a "whole person" concept. As staff member Cpt. Brian Lugenbeel puts it, "We emphasize that the military is only one part of your life and that education is the most important thing. We believe that our students should be educated socially and academically, as well as in a military fashion." Lugenbeel goes on to say, "Outside of these uniforms we lead normal lives." Cadet Battalion Leader Evan Smith, a se­ nior from Burke, Va., says that through the ROTC, "I've learned about myself, dealing with other people, leadership and managing my time." Cadet Cpl. Josh Davis, a sophomore ffom Fayetteville, says, "I think the ROTC helps my grades, because the more I have to do, the more I have to plan." The ROTC program also appeals to older students who have already been enlisted in the Army. Cadet First Sergeant, Major War­ ren Bowen, a junior from Richmond, Ky., spent four years active duty in the U.S. Army. He now maintains a 3.8 g.p.a. as a criminal jus­ tice major. Bowen says, "ROTC provides time management skills. It helps to prioritize what is important." Some of the ROTC's upcoming events in­ clude going to the Watauga Gun Club on Oct. 5 to fire M-16's, and going to Banner Elk on Oct. 7 for rappelling and basic rock climbing. Members of Appalachian's ROTC program prepare for a field trip exercise at the New River. (Photo by the ROTC departmentj On Oct. 15, eight people are going to Wash­ ington, DC. to participate in the Army's10-mile run. From Oct. 27-29, two teams are going to Ft. Jackson, SC, for a Ranger Challenge com­ petition, which is a physical fitness event rec­ ognized as a varsity sport on campus. They are also attending a field training exercise in Ft. Bragg for three days, where they will train in land navigation and rifles. It is a confidence/ obstacle course. In order to become involved in the ROTC, all you have to do is sign up for Military Sci­ ence I in your freshman year. The only require­ ment is that you attend class. Military Science I and II may also be taken simultaneously during your sophomore year. There are no obligations to join the Army after signing up for your whole freshman and sophomore years.

"After a point, I realized the roadblocks were limiting me and that it was time to make a change," says Carey. However, it would be unfair to place all returning students into this category. Some older students come back for the personal satisfaction it gives them. Bumgardner graduated high school and got married. "I just had no interest in college back then," says Bumgardner. But after raising five kids (a task which is not over by any means), she decided to come back to school because, as she says, "It just became important to me to get a de­ gree." When asked to describe the ma­ jor differences between them and their younger counterparts, older students tend to agree that social pressures and determination are the only major dif­ ferences, besides age. "Often young people see their so­ cial life as paramount, but as an older student you're better able to sit back and concentrate on what you are here for - an education," says Turnquist. "Adult students are nsnaHv mnrp focused," says Driggers. He attributes this focus to older students' paying for their own education. Also, because of their age, older students often feel like they can't afford to waste time. Unlike most younger students, the non-traditional" students seem to have very little trouble establishing a rapport with their professors. As one would suspect, the diminished, and sometimes non-existent, age gap helps the older students in this area. "The only problem I have is when a teacher says, 'Wait until you get into the real world.' Well, I've been there," says 30year-old Senior Nixie Chiofalo. Most adult students tend to agree that the entire school experience has been a positive one. Turnquist says he highly recommends returning to school, and he points out that students who finish school now should plan on going back to school at some point. "With the way things are getting out there now, you had better plan on tak­ ing a year off and getting a refresher in your major, because sooner or later you will need it," says Tltrnquist. So the next time you reach over and hit the snooze button early in the morning, remember Bumgardner and the 1100 other "non-traditional" stu­ dents like her, who have probably done a whole day's work by the time you reach the shower. They may be older, but that's not stopping them. Lustre continued from page 6 ment drummer was ejected and the original Shiner lineup was restored with Clayton back behind the drums. At this point, Shiner was being eaten alive with offers from labels. Late in the year, they were preparing to sign with Epic when A&M records threw their hat in the ring. The band backed off to look closer at both la­ bels, because as Marley said, it was "a mighty big decision." Around the turn of the year, the band was forced to change tneirname to Lustre. It was also at this time that they decided to go with the smaller, more appealing A&M record labeL The new year began with Lustre touring and preparing to record their debut album. They knocked the al­ bum out in three weeks, with produc­ tion wrapping up in June, and re­ leased a split single the month before featuring the song "Junior." Opportunity knocked again for the band shortly after the recording. A&M was preparing work on the soundtrack for the film "Empire Records" and offered Lustre a slot on it. The band presented the song "Nice Overalls" to the soundtrack's produc­ ers, who accepted it. The soundtrack is out now, featuring such bands as Gin Blossoms, the Cranberries, Cracker and Better Than Ezra. This brings us to the present. Lustre has completed a seven-date, nine-day-long tour, which precedes an opening gig with Babes In Toyland. They recently released anew single on Cargo records. Still in the works for the band are a tour with Urge Over­ kill and a possible slot on an AC/DC tribute album. Their debut album will be out in February 1996. Lustre is a band with influences as diverse as the Mice and AG/DC, which reflects in their sound. The most prominent features of the music are its infectious pop quality and its distortion-laden groove. Marley de­ scribed the group's sound as "very ra­ dio friendly. It's a sound that a lot of people like." Clayton continued with this by saying, "We're having fun play­ ing the songs we've come up with so far. Once we come up with a finished thing, like our album, we're real proud of it." Dedication to their music, their fans and their showmanship: these factors are the ones that will launch Lustre from local recognition into the stratosphere. "It's going to be fun to see how the outcome of everything is four or five years from now," says Marley.

In fact, the last time the Moun­ ds lost a conference match was 1993. |e win did not come easy for the jeam. The Lady Apps went down (fore losing the first game to in 15-12. After that, however, the t. ineers proved to be up to the jge of beating a very tough cont team. The ladies took the next three games 15-8, 15-7, and 15-5, to win the match. This win proved to be much more diffi­ cult for the Mountaineers than their previous win over Georgia Southern. For one thing the Paladins had just come off a weekend where they had gone 5-0 in a tournament. Furman is also predicted to be one of the strongest con­ tenders for the Southern Conference crown along with Appalachian. Coach Dave Markland called the hard fought victory "one of the biggest wins of the year." However the victory did not come with­ out cost to the Mountaineers. In the third game, senior starter Miriam Sealey went down with an injury to her arm and was forced to leave the match. Coach Markland said that losing Sealey "takes some of the enjoyment out of the win." It has yet to be determined how serious Sealey"s injury is, and whether or not she will play Thursday. Outstanding performances for Appala­ chian were turned in by Sheri Leverette, who led the team in kills, with 21 and Erica Bahry, who led in digs, with 19. As a team the Moun­ taineers recorded 66 kills, 91 digs, 16 blocks and six aces. The Lady Apps will play again Thurs­ day, at home against another Southern Conference oppent, East Tennesse State. The team will then travel to South Caro­ lina to participate in the Charleston Tournament Friday and Saturday. The Mountaineers proved tobe up to the challenge of beating a very tough conference team. Darryl Stevens Staff Writer Sports Commentary ing measures. The world's boxing alliances could train and hire doctors whose only job is to examine fighters before showtime. Warn­ ing signs, like heart irregularities and un­ treated concussions can be caught in early stages. Make sure referees stay alert in fightstopping situations. Some fights go on need­ lessly when one boxer is just absorbing pun­ ishment. Boxing doesn't need equipment and rules to protect fighters. A ban on the sport isn't the answer. If boxing goes, then motorcycle racing and hang gliding go. Maybe auto rac­ ing and football would be next. It's easier to just slap headgear on fight­ ers and tell forty-somethings not to box, than to safeguard participants without taking away a part of their lives. Prevention really is the best medicine. Thomas Heams, maybe the only middleaged boxer who hasn't made a comeback, kept stepping forward with a Tuesday night win over Earl Butler. Unlike George Foreman and Larry Holmes, Heams never left the ring. His ca­ reer has slipped out of the spodight, but apparendy "the Hitman*1 is ready to make noise. He even issued a light challenge to Marvel­ ous Marvin Hagler. The fight would be a rematch of the fighters' 1985 slugfest, which Hagler won. Heams looked sharp early, staggering the 14-8 Buder in the first round and putting the TALE OF THE TAPE younger man on the mat in the second. The One of baseball's most endearing char­ rest of the match was a tug-o-war.

The 3-1 victory extends .ady Mountaineer winning streak to six. (Photo by Shane Richardson) The Appalachian State football team had an open date last week, but will be back in action Saturday as they take on East Tennes­ see State at Kidd Brewer Stadium. The game will be the Southern Conference debut for the Mountaineers and the first step toward a Southern Conference crown. So how will the Apps fare Saturday? Let me throw some numbers at you. The Moun­ taineers are 3-0 this season, East Tennessee State is 0-4. In the series history, Appalachian holds a 25-11-1 advantage including 13 con­ secutive victories over the Buccaneers. It doesn't take a math major to realize that the Mountaineers should come away with the win. Offensively, Appalachian State has been explosive this season, and the team looks to continue that trend against a generous East Tessessee State defense that has allowed 38.5 points per game this season. The Mountain- eers have been getting it done on the ground, rushing for over 300 yards in their last two contests. Damon Scott is coming off of a 218-yard rushing performance at North Carolina A8tT. Aldwin Lance got 105 yards of his own in the same contest. Strong performances by both backs should keep the Buccaneer defense guessing all afternoon. Appalachian's passing attack was rather quiet in the A8tT game, but look for quarter­ back Scott Satterfield to heat up against the Buccaneer secondary. On the other side of the ball, things don't look any better for ETSU, in fact they look worse. In last year's game, the Buccanneers were held to 28 yards rushing. Dexter Coaktey only needs two more tack­ les to move past Avery Hall and three more stops to pass Rico Mack to move into the fourth spot on Appalachian's list for career tackles. He may get that many before the national an­ them is played. Defense has been the key for Appalachian see Bucs page 10 Mountaineers drop two straight id Willis stant Sports Editor Appalachian's men's soccer team fell twice le road this week to Vanderbilt 3-1 on Sunand to Wake Forest 5-3 on Tuesday. the Mountaineer's gave a great effort 1st the Commodores, carrying the game overtime with a 1-1 tie.

With just 2:47 gone in the game, Erik Brandsma scored on a run from the left wing. Wake scored again, this time by Ryan Scott, who managed to avoid two defenders before the shot. Again, a few minutes later, Brandsma scored his second goal of the half, giving Wake the early 3-0 lead. The Mountaineers would, however, come back. Just before the end of the first half, Greg Rhinehardt beat the Wake goalie on his way to an open goal. Then just into the second half, Jay Lane scored on a pass from Mike Moody to tighten the game at 3-2. The Deacons then would score the next two goals to shut the door on ASU. Ilija Zlatar scored on a header with 49:45 gone and Brandsma would get his third of the game at 60:15 and the hats were flying. Mountaineer Brett Harrell would score 81:57 into the game, but the Apps could get no more and the Deacs came away with the 5-3 win. Chad Hawley played in the goal for the Mountaineers replacing Jason Hockstra. Hawley had five saves. Also, Mountaineer Mike Moody had two assists in the game. The Mountaineers fell to 5-4 on the season and will next meet Southern Conference foe Georgia Southern in Statesboro. Game time is set for noon. The Mountaineers dropped games to Wake Forest and Vanderbilt this week sending their record to 5-4 thi season. The Mountaineers play again Sundy Oct. I at Georgia Southern. (Photo Toni Mazzaglia) �The Appalachian 28 Page 10 Bucs continued from page 9 this season, and the same should be the case Saturday. In their last contest, the Mountaineers gave up only 115 yards rushing to North Carolina A&T, and got to the Aggie quarterback for five sacks. However, the Apps have got to avoid another second half let down. Twice this season, the Mountaineers have given up a lot of points after half time; 21 to Wake Forest and 24 to A&T. But that's not going to happen this weekend, or at least shouldn't. The Mountaineers are a superior football team to the Bucs and unless the Apps fall apart, the final score will reflect just that. Since it's family weekend, cover your little brothers eyes, this could get ugly.

The tourna­ ment attracted teams from Kentucky, Ball State, and Tennessee Tech for four flights of competition. Heather Phillips led the way for the Lady Mountaineers by getting into the third round of the draw before being eliminated. The match was Phillips' college tennis debut. Jen Sopel also had a good match for the Lady Apps in the first flight of competition. "She played really well," Coach Gene fields commented. "She moved real well." Carrie Burton and Katy Phalin played in the second flight for the Lady Mountaineers. On Burton's play, Fields added, "A couple points here or there could have made a difference."

The victim identified the suspect, whose name has not been released, through a photo line-up last week. Capt. Larry Fos­ ter, university police investigator, then con­ fronted the suspect by interviewing him on the specifics of the case. According to Capt. Foster, the suspect denied being involved in the Sept. 18th attack. The female student was allegedly assaulted on Sept. 18 at 7:45 p.m. on Sta­ dium Drive, across from Trivette Hall. Ac­ cording to University Police, the suspect grabbed the female by the arm and forced her to sit on a stone wall while trying to con­ vince her to come up to her room. Penalties in the assault case are pending, because the female student involved has chosen not to press charges at this time. In order to avoid other alleged as­ saults, Capt. Foster has increased the num­ ber of patrolmen in the area and urges stu­ dents to be aware of their own safety. L to R.

PPalachian is published witfy support from Renee Cagle Staff Writer Construction of the new science building, which will house the astronomy, chemistry and physics departments, is sched­ uled to begin in approximately three weeks, said Clyde Robbins, associate vice chancellor of physical operations. The new building is expected to be finished in May of 1997. Originally, the building was to be lo­ cated directly beside Justice Residence Hall. Due to the need for more ventilation space, the building will now be located south of Jus­ tice on Rivers Street. The funding of the new science build­ ing, yet to be named, comes from a state bond issue passed last year. Appalachian received $25.5 million for the construction of the sci­ ence building and the Academic Support Build­ ing, already under construction on Rivers Street. Approximately $16.4 million will go to the science building. A committee was formed to hire an architect and make other decisions concern­ ing the science building. Committee head was Dr. Robert Soeder, professor of chemistry. Other members included Dr. Carl Mamola, chair of the physics department; Dr. Lawrence Brown, chair of the chemistry department; Kenneth Jacker, professor of computer sci­ ences and various others. According to Robbins, bids were col­ lected by the committee in May and the low­ est bid, Jenkins - Peer architectural firm, was $2 million over the $16.4 million budget. The bid was accepted and the plans were altered to fit the budget. "The architects had to partially re­ design the building and cut back in order to meet our $16.4 million budget," said Robbins. "The construction of such a large project in­ volves many departments and people." "The new science building is a very needed facility," said Don Sink, dean of the college of fine and applied arts. "There are almost 10 times as many students and fac­ ulty using Rankin today as when it first was built." Rankin Science Building was con­ structed in two phases. The first was com­ pleted in the 1960s and the last in early 1970. According to Sink, The Appalachian Alliance for Teaching Science is an organiza­ tion that is currently raising money to fund the renovation of the old Rankin Science Building. These funds will also help buy equipment for both buildings and help with costs in general. "Usually when you move into a new building you have new space, but not new equipment," said Sink. "With this program, we get both." "This is a building that's very impor­ tant to Appalachian," said Jane Helm, vice chancellor of business affairs. Helm will over­ see the construction of the building through­ out its development, as well as the process of moving in. "This is probably the most exciting thing to happen to the science departments in a long time," said Brown. "Appalachian's growing at a rate that's hard to keep up with."

The most recent legislation, aims not only at adults caught driving under the influence, but teenage drivers as well. On Friday, Sept. 15, a new law went into effect prohibiting drivers under the age of 21 from driving with any alcohol in their blood. Those caught with even the smallest amount of alcohol in their blood stream will lose their license for an entire year. In addition, the new law also prohib­ its open containers of alcohol if the driver had see DUI Page 2 400 200 1985 1986 1987 1988 1989 1990 1991 1992 1993 1994 1995 According to Dr. Joseph Watts, director of admissions, the steady increase in freshmen SAT scores can be attributed to the increase in applicants. He estimated that there were 2,000 applicants in 1985. In 1995 there were about 9,000. * Source: Tact Book, 1994-95", compiled by the Office of Institutional Research and Planning Appalachian's Center for Student Involvement and Leadership.

How long will it take to forget it all again? To solve the problem, let's first ask, why does math seem to create this barrier for long term retention? Some very logical reasons Tim Nicholson come to mind. Math is much more a skill than Columnist knowledge. It takes practice. It takes memo­ rizing numerous, specific rules, steps and for­ mulas. Math solves practical problems, not intellectual, cultural, or emotional problems, Why are there such strict math require­ though the skills may help sharpen our think­ ments at Appalachian? Here, we have a man­ ing processes. We need a reason to do math; datory placement test, and a whole system set then it works. We don't do math to cope with daily problems. up for the large group who can't pass it. This Even though higher math impacts our set of hurdles can cause real problems for cer­ modern lives extensively, most of us still don't tain students, especially non-traditional ones. A Monday through Friday remedial 0010 ever use it. It's not like riding a bike; it's more course with no credited hours, but with a grade like building a computer. It takes constant that counts on the permanent GPA, no pre­ practice. Finally, the level of math technology test tutoring unless enrolled in a math class (a advances every second. Only professionals can keep up. catch 22), and an additional four hour math Let's give math credit for improving our core requirement. Finally, and most impor­ minds and our lives. We need higher math in tantly, it costs time and money. school for brain exercise and understanding. For me, I hadn't even thought of high level math for 25 years, and without warning, orientation plopped me right into my first placement test. Woah! Then I found out that the results meant hun­ dreds of hours of extra work in the dreaded "dumb guy's" math class. After a year of self teaching in preparation for my second try at the placement test, I'm enjoying the puzzle works of math. I really enjoy it. Time is the real problem. There is too much spent learning skills (which by now at age 45) I know I'll never use. more than memorizing and practicing all the techniques. Separate the curriculum into math for professionals and math for thinking skills. Simple math and arithmetic would still be cru­ cial for every student because we do use them in real life. Math, like music, art, sports, checkers, is a skill, even an art. Math is unlike science or history or geography. It requires technique and focuses on results and methods. The humani­ ties and sciences deal with the knowledge be­ hind everything, to be studied, while math is to be mastered. Right? We don't study facts we solve problems on the spot. Generate in­ formation. Apply. Mathematicians are like artisans. Can an opera singer still sing the same after years away? The knowledge of math is different from the exercises. Treat math the same as the other skills related studies, like music, art, languages, sports. Give us broad intelligence improving studies and leave the time consuming exercise and practice to the experts. Tie what we study to the level of what we use. Teach us how to use math to make our lives better, if we're not going to use it in our profes­ sions. Spend the remedial redevel­ opment on the curriculum, not the individual students who have already wasted their time trying to hold math in their brains like water in a sieve. Let's gear the math education of our society to be beneficial to all, not just to math profes­ sionals. Many older students feel singled out by the Appalachian math requirements and the whole math educational system that got us here. How much extra time do older students have to rehash lost skills? Who is to tell a middle aged person that we will need these skills in the real world? Does it make sense for these older students, with less time, to spend the most time on a subject which has proven itself to be a waste of time? Mathematicians deserve credit. But they should not run our lives any more than they already do. Higher math should fit in with the Arts and PE, where skills and use go to­ gether, not as a basic founding block of liberal education, like History, Reading, Writing, Sci­ ence, and Arithmetic. Many older students feel singled out by the Appalachian math requirements and the whole math educational system that got us here. How much extra time do older students have to rehash lost skills? Obviously, students are not learning math in 12 years of school and countless hours of homework. Whose fault is it? I can't believe the individual student is the culprit. Which needs a fix: students or the main educational system? Which would do everyone more good? Statistically, people need more inclass and homework hours for math than for any other study. At the same time, math skills fade faster. Dr. Smith, the very capable Chair of our math department, recognizes the problems and admits some concern. Strict math requirements and placement tests prove the problem exists, but they don't solve it. After five years out of school, how many can hope to pass the test? Check test statistics. Remem­ ber now, it took 12 years to get it the first time. i *V jl However, when the facility slips away so quickly, can we afford to waste hours and years practicing techniques which we never put to use in the real world? So much math wastes time for the 90 percent of students at all levels of school. There - I've said it. So what will eliminate the waste? Maybe we could still teach math, but in a more retainable, efficient, and useable way. Maybe we could teach application in real life Unabonfj continued from page 3 Knowing that the pressj kille r i s s c a r y .

However, I have been in­ convenienced many times due to the small job market and low competition raising prices. like the idea that Wal-Mart is on its way I am tired of higher priced goods at Kmart and the other larger stores. At the beginning of this year I went searching for a ten- gallon trashcan. I went to Kmart to find they only had one 30 gallon one left, and the hardware stores only had a few small ones to choose from at over eight dollars apiece. If Wal-Mart had been open I'm sure I could've found what I needed, at a reason­ able price. How many times have all of us had to go home or to Hickory, Wilkesboro, or Win­ ston-Salem to get clothing, school supplies, or general goods because they couldn t be found here or were too expensive? Being an English major in this town is tough. Last semester I went home to buy as many novels at a used bookstore as I could for my three English courses, and still wound up paying list price in the bookstore on cam­ pus. If Boone were a little more well rounded, I probably could have gotten the books here, used, without the hassle of hav­ ing to drive 200 miles because I refuse to pay $18 for a book I can get elsewhere for three dollars. I've heard various complaints about Boone growing too much for almost two and a half years now. If those of you who love the small town feel so much can't handle it, there's an easy solution. Move. Go to an­ other college somewhere that better suits your needs. If you want to live in a small town and chose this one, you made a poor choice. Any college town is going to grow regardless of where it is located. I'm pretty confident when I say that the majority of us aren't going to like living here part of the year any less after Wal-Mart opens its doors than we did before.

With this ring... Stuart Crampton Reporter \ What do Lenny Kravitz, Perry Farrell, Billy Joe (Green Day), Sinead O' Connor and Den­ nis Rodman have in common? Besides being a possible line- up for Lollapalooza '96, each of these slightly off-center individuals, like many Appalachian students, have a love for one of the newest and most intriguing fads in our culture, as well as an unbelievable toler­ ance for needles. The trend is called body piercing, and its popularity at Appalachian is still increasing. Body piercing? Is this some Generation X way of getting back at society for giving us the Bee Gees? Actu­ ally, body piercing is more than just needles and rings; it's a form of personal expression that was born centu­ ries ago. The Mayans employed body pierc­ ing as a form of per­ sonal sacrifice to their gods by making a hole in the tongue and then pulling a thorned vine through the wound. Although piercing has been common in many cultures since the Mayans, modern day piercing didn't start until the 1700s in England. With the rise in piercing's popularity during the late 1970s came a growing concern with the health and sanitation aspect of the practice. As a result, today's piercers are educated on such vital as­ pects as metallurgy, technique, infections and the growth of scar tissue. "Why would anyone want to subject them­ selves to that kind of pain?" asks junior Sonal Singh. One can find almost as many motives for piercing as there are people who have been pierced. But some of the more common mo­ tives given by Appalachian students deal with sex appeal, rebellion, blending in with the new culture, personal pleasure and simply liking the way piercing looks. Freshman Leah Rubin says many of her friends have been pierced for one main rea­ son: sex. "Piercing is purely sexual, and it creates eroticism and intimacy," said Rubin. Junior Page Bradham, a native of Chapel Hill and president of A.PRS., had his left ear pierced more than six times for a completely different reason. "I like jewelry, I like the look, and 1 enjoy accessorizing," said Bradham. Sophomore Ian Busby, of Thomasville, shares the motives of both Rubin and Bradham. "I got my ear, my nose, and my nipple pierced purely for decoration, but I had my penis pierced because I heard it increases the length of an orgasm by four times. Out of all of what I've had done, my tongue ring is my favorite because it's really an oral fixation," said Busby. Body piercer Fred Davis has been pierc­ ing ears, noses, tongues, nipples, eye­ brows and genitalia at Expressions for al­ many of the same concerns as most six months, and Davis. "Piercing is still not regu­ he is concerned with lated by any health standards, so how ignorant Boone you should really research it, ask­ is to the dangers of ing all the whys, hows and what body piercing.

"Whywould anyone want to subject themselves to that kind of pain?" - Sonal Singh, junior " s art in Plemmons new mm**. m - : : f Natalie Kozin Reporter I' I A new art gallery is opening on campus with exhibits created entirely by Appalachian students, faculty, and staff. The looking Glass Mountain Art Gallery, located on the first floor of the renovated Stu­ dent Union, will house four exhibits in the fall and spring semesters, and two in the sum­ mer. Each exhibit will run for three weeks. Phil Arnold, evening manager of Plemmons Student Union, said, "Our thoughts were that it is sometimes difficult to bring stu­ dents to art, so we are bringing an to the stu­ dents. Its location in the Student Union makes the an a focal point, a vortex of aesthetic en­ ergy." The inaugural exhibit features selected works from the Appalachian Artist Collection, a permanent collection housed in the Alpine Lounge in the Student Union. This exhibit fo­ cuses on two-dimensional art including oils, watercolor, pastel, wood block, mixed media and seriogragh pieces. The Other exhibits for the semester are l not permanently set. If a student, class or professor is interested in showing their work, they can go to the Student Programs office and apply for space. The types of art slated for display are not limited to only two-dimensional paintings. The gallery will have a television set up to show the artist at work. Sculptures and pho­ tography can also be shown. Brad Vest, the program coordinator for the Office of Student Programs, said, "1 just think that the gallery will be a great opportu­ nity for the Appalachian family to view what their comrades have produced. It is a pre­ mier encounter program for the Appalachian community as a whole." The art will be offered for sale after this first exhibit. The management for the gal­ lery will help connect the interested buyer and the artist, but the artist will receive all prof­ its. The art gallery will open officially on Monday, Sept. 25th. The hours have been tentatively set for .1.0 a.m. to 4 p.m., Monday through Friday.

Campers are split into three separate groups for their activities and sleep in one of three 25-person cabins. The counselors present the kids with very challenging tasks, and then let them work to­ gether as a group to solve them. This teaches the campers "soft skills," which are best de­ scribed as social skills. Soft skills teach camp­ ers to discover things about themselves, how to solve problems, and more importantly, to build stronger bonds. They accomplish this through communication, trust, understanding and learning to tolerate other people and their differences. "It enables the campers to see their fellow classmates in a different light," says Bevans. The activities also teach campers confi­ dence and self-esteem, qualities which Bevans feels are overlooked in the normal education system. "We are different from a classroom environment. It's called "experiential educa­ tion". We learn by doing, and it's real power­ ful stuff," said Bevans. Skills that are valuable to the campers also relate to the counselors wh The counselors are able tc outdoor skills that they are ers while also learning tlr The counselors learn m s skills, the ability to give c to deal with a wide array < importantly, it teaches res a counselor has 10 campe i ment, and has to travel an do a caving activity, that i s ity," says Bevans.

Once again, "Ready to climb." Chris was not quite sure if this was what he really wanted his 11 year old body to be doing. "Climb on Chris," came the confident reply of his balay man. And with that, Chris was off to conquer the "Burma Bridge," a 20-foot rope element in the high ropes course. This is a typical situation for campers at the little-known Camp Broadstone in Valle Crucis. Camp Broadstone is a 55-acre camp owned and operated by Appalachian that works with children ages10 to 14, and teaches them group interaction, outdoor skills and environmental education programs. Most of the 25 counselors at the camp are Appalachian students or former students. Many are leisure stud­ ies majors but there are also many different departments rep­ resented, such as education, bi­ ology and psychology. Camp Broadstone opened in 1961 and is managed under the Division of Continuing Educa­ tion. The camp is open yearround and facilitates family re­ treats, weddings and confer­ ences. But Broadstone's main mission is working with groups of people, particularly young people. And as Camp Director Judith Bevans says, "We are an educational facility, not a recre­ ational one." The camp usually entertains a group of 30 children over a three- day session. Most of the groups are regular classes from middle schools throughout the western part of the state. One school from Winston-Salem is so pleased with the camp that they have sent a group for 11 straight years A typical day for the camp­ ers starts out with breakfast at 7:30 a.m., which is followed by Broadstone campers rprepare to ^ perform u ropesj course activity u i i a belaa — ~ ^ ^ ^ , a i i / p u b u u / o G a u L i v u y on a u c i r ~ ~ •wn half-Hav arniir» A / i < , . . . . . _ two half-day group activities with Appalachian owned and operated camp in Valle Crucis.

This guy's name is "The Plaque," so you can expect evil-doing. Speaking of crazy conspiracies, Mr. Plaque has the Secret Service in the seat of his laptop. The Service is cracking down on hackers, so he sends them out. Funny thing is, the oP Plaquester is a crazy hacker him­ self. "Hackers" is a fairly well-made cyber thriller with mega-bytes of laughs and some great music to type by. However, the plotline is as clunky as a typewriter and floats like one. Fortunately, the pace of the movie covers up these faults and the other lapses in logic. But there's no cover­ ing up the irritating MTV video cam­ era work. Many scenes appear to have been filmed by a drunk guy stuck in a washing machine. This is very similar to the 1983 hit "WarGames," but without the nuclear missiles and massive death scares. The real thrill stems from watching some kids bend a zillion-dollar indus­ try to their will. There's a vast uni­ verse out there in computers. Know­ ing that there are people out there hacking away and crashing systems for fun, one might want to log off of the whole system. However, "Hack­ ers" is worth logging onto; just leave your terminal off. Grade: are other perks from working at the camp. "It's good to be outside, hav­ ing a good time, helping kids learn," says Reardon, then with a grin,"and getting paid for it too." Mathews, a sustainable develop­ ment major, said working at the camp is fun and there is a lot of vari­ ety in the people and activities go­ ing on. "The camp is very organized and professional, yet laid back at the same time," she said. "I like to do it because it benefits the children." Reardon agrees, "It's great to let the kids do something they thought they would never be able to do. The counselors leave here every day more energized than when we came in to work." For those interested in working in the camp, Bevans distributes fly­ ers to various department heads when there are openings, and sets up a booth at Camp Placement Day in the student union. Each person must go through the staff training and then through an apprenticeship before assuming responsibility of their own group. An apprenticeship is determined on an individual ba­ sis, but usually consists of accompa­ nying three different activity groups as well as observing and working with counselors. As Bevans says, "The camp is a great training ground for teachers." Camp Broadstone is a unique experience for those students wish­ ing to work with children in an edu­ cational outdoor environment, but more importantly, counselors learn about themselves and the amazing ability of what the outdoors may do for a young person. "In the 20 years that we have been around, we have literally touched thousands of lives, both counselors' and children's," said Bevans. "It sounds funny, but in three days we develop a real sense of family caring, and it shows."

The Boone rains and a Moun­ taineer attack were enough to snuff out the Flames as Appalachian coasted to a 3-0 win. The Mountaineer offense came through early with three shots in the first four minutes. Liberty's first offensive opportunity did not originate until seven minutes into the game, on a direct kick, and they were unable to pro­ duce. The Mountaineers could not be suppressed by the rain or Liberty's physical play. Liberty players received warnings for roughing as Brian Cone left the game bleeding, but re­ turned to action later. With about 30 minutes left Kevin Turner scored the only goal of the first half unassisted. At the other end, goalie Jason Hockstra made numerous saves, keeping his shutout, intact At one time Hockstra was bombarded by shots, with three Liberty comer kicks, but all three came up short. Defensive player Kevin Turner went down with a minute left in the first half. His lower left arm was injured and he never returned to action. Less than four minutes into the second half Lou Brancourt scored with an assist by Mark Hemphill. Six minutes later Naoshi Yamauchi passed the ball to Jay Lane for the third and final goal. Liberty threw in the proverbial towel as they sent in their second squad with about 13:00 left in the second half. Coach Art Rex com­ mented , "Our midfielders directed play today, and what shots Liberty did make on our goal were not clear shots and the shutout is a di­ rect consequence of their play."

The victory at Broome-Kirk Gymnasium was the team's first Southern Conference match of the season. The win also extended the Lady Moun­ taineers winning streak to five in a row, bring­ ing their record for the year to 5-7. Appalachian came out strong in the match, taking a 12-0 lead in the first game en played good defense allowing no shots to go in," explained Coach Cathy Burleson. The score at half time was 0-3 with Vir­ ginia in the lead. During the second stanza the Mountaineers played defense all half. " We just kept feeding the Cavaliers the ball and they just kept making the goal," stated Coach Burleson. "The team just didn't meet the chal­ lenge. It was a mental game and with goal af­ ter goal, it tired the girls out both physically and mentally. However, it allowed us to sub in everyone and allowed us to gain experience." The Mountaineers lost to the Cavaliers to a score of 0-11. After such a tough loss to Virginia, the team prepared themselves for their game against Radford, which was held on Wednes­ day Sept. 20. Even though the team was on Radford's home turf, the Lady Mountaineers got their first victory of their season. " "We were tickled to have a win under our belt," commented Coach Burleson. " Radford is a big ball team that drives rough and our girls are used to playing smaller game than Radford, but with players like se­ nior forward Barry Clyatt, junior forward Jen­ nifer Broderick, sophomore mid-fielder Rachel Bergman, senior forward Elena Moore, junior mid-fielder, and senior goalkeeper Ingrid Stamberg we played a great game, " added Burleson. Junior forward Jennifer Broderick scored the winning goal for ASU with a right wing kick with an assist from freshman Suzanne Fawsett. The score came in the first half with 3:23 remaining. route to a 15-2 win. Appalachian then took a 5-0 lead in the second game on the way to a 15-7 victory. In the final game the Lady Apps went on an 11 point run, helping them finish off the match with a 15-6 win. The Lady Mountaineers dominated Georgia Southern in just about every way. The team had 10 aces compared to zero for the Lady Eagles. Senior Sheri Leverette led the way with four, while also collecting 16 digs and seven kills. Defensively, the Lady Apps had another strong match with 71 digs and 27 blocks as a team. Senior Amy Kolemechuk led in digs with 18 and sophmore Jennifer Rumfeldt led in blocks with seven. Coach Dave Markland was very pleased with the team's performance. Markland com­ mented that "Everyone contributed and played their roles well." He also said that the team "blocked and served better than they have been." The Lady Mountaineers will try to extend their winning streak this week with conference matches Tuesday and Thursday nights against Furman and East Tennesse State. Both matches will be held in Broome-Kirk Gymna­ sium at 7:00 p.m. Lauy iviuumaiiieers exwna weir win streak to five with a victory over Georgia Southern Friday night. I rut Sophomore Rachel Bergman helped the team in rushing Radford to shoot. Goalkeeper Ingrid Stamberg played an aggressive game and stayed in the game punching out a lot of balls out. Stamberg had eight saves in the first half and 13 saves in the second half. " Although we won, we will need to be physi­ cally and mentally prepared for the rematch against Radford," explained Coach Burleson. With their first victory "under their belt", the ASU Field Hockey team improved their record to 1-6. With a win in hand, the ASU reurned home and played against Virginia Common­ wealth Saturday Sept. 23. "It was an excit­ ing game. We played an attack play through­ out the whole game and a man-to-man de­ fense," explained Coach Burleson. "This was Darryl Stevens Staff Writer Sports Commentary The Cleveland Indians and the St. Louis Rams are ready to scratch long-bothersome itches. The Indians last won the American League in 1954, when they won an all-time best 111 games. That season, Cleveland won a kind of team Triple Crown: Larry Doby led the American in homers and RBIs, and team­ mate Roberta Avila batted .341 for the aver­ age title. The Cleveland franchise has been re­ moved from the spotlight so long that a movie was based on their long-term futility ("Major League"). They know that the glory still lies ahead. A 100-win season will only mean something to historians. When your team has risen like cream, after so many years of frustration, there's nothing to do but smile, ignore the natural mixed feelings, and enjoy the moment. Fans of these normally graceless teams ask them­ selves if this could be "the year the (fill-inthe-blank), my favorite team, really does something worth remembering." The problem with this positive, flowery attitude is that history doesn't let us forget. Rams fans may feel the same caution this week, as St. Louis celebrated its 4-0 re­ turn to the NFL. After all, nobody wants to get excited too quickly. The Philadelphia Phillies' mid-season collapse after a hot start is only the most recent reason not to get hopes up too high, too early. The Rams franchise's only visit to the Super Bowl, in 1980, was a 31-19 spanking by the Pittsburgh Steelers.

With four days to practice, the Lady Mountaineers will try to improve their play for their Saturday game against Longwood and their Sunday game against Davidson."1 feel we will win both of these games if we play like we played this past weekend," stated Coach Burleson. continued from page 8 title. This season, they can hope for a second place bid against the Knicks and Celtics. Plaver with the Most to Prove: Shawn Kemp. Like the song says, the Lakers beat the Supersonics, and Seattle's open­ ing-series loss last May was its second straight first-round exit. 1996 is Kemp's year to fulfill his potential. After two years of dominating regular season, somebody has to step into the shoes of the Money Man, WIN whether it be Kemp or Gary Payton. No team can win consistently in the playoffs without a Mr. Clutch. Plaver with the Least to Prove: Michael Jordan. Anything short of Chicago's fourth title in the '90s will be a letdown for a lot of people. Jordan couldn't lift the Bulls singlehandedly over the Magic, and that knocked some of the glitter away from Flight 2345 this summer But it disregards Orlando's talent and effort to suggest its second round win was due to Jordan's "decline." Hakeem Olajuwon's accomplishments are also diminished by such conclu­ sions, for whether Jordan returns from baseball or not, the Dream was the best in the world last year. Too bad Jordan didn't stay retired, because hell have to duplicate those championship seasons to satisfy himself - and he's much more difficult to please than anyone else.

This service offers students safe, after-hours transportation on-campus. Jason Basinger, the SGA cabinet member in charge of Mountaineer Escort, said the service will be run differently this year. All of the calls will be answered by the police dis­ patch and then volunteers will be radioed. There will be two shifts each night and two people will cover each shift. » Darby weaver, sua presiuem, sa,u the service is getting an earlier start this year than they did last year. According to Weaver, last year's staff did not start service until midOctober. "A lot of fraternities have put up a lot of guys for the next few weeks," said Weaver. Basinger said the service relies heavily on or­ ganizations on campus for volunteers. He es­ timated that there are over 100 volunteers signed up so far this year. "I'm thankful for the turnout we've had so far," said Basinger. He said volunteers may fill out an application in the Student Gov­ ernment Association office. Basinger said that all volunteers go through an orientation process before they are put on the schedule for a shift. Incidences Rape *This figure includes Jan. 1, 1995- July 31, 1995 Source: "Crime Awareness and Campus Security"pamphlet "Basically, I want to increase awareness by getting people to volunteer and get involved with the service," said Basinger.

Mountaineer Escort is available to accompany students from 8 p.m. to 12:30 a.m. during daylight savings time and 6 p.m. to 12:30 a.m. thereafter.

Number of rush participants increases Ben Emery Reporter ^Appalachian PbCSfc S«HVK» twice 1$36 Arrests "It went great," said Jim Street, the assistant director of the Center for Student Development. According to Street, the num­ ber of students rushing fraternities and sorori­ ties this year is up. This year, 250 women joined a so­ rority, which is a 50-person increase from last year. Street said the increase in pledges is par­ tially due to the large freshman class. Street also said the Panhellenic Council did a good job of advertising the sorority rush this year. The final numbers for fraternities are not in yet, but Street said the fraternities were seeing an increase, too. Fraternity rush is still in progress and bids will be put out for pledges on Friday, Sept. 22. Street said fraternities and sororities are required to follow strict alcohol guidelines during rush. He said there were not any prob­ lems with any groups breaking the Dry Rush rule. Most students said they rushed "to meet people." Some students did not rush because they did not have the time. "I didn't want to get committed my first year, but 1 will probably rush next year," said Mandy Burford, freshman. Sean McGinnis, freshman, said, "I needed to center in on the most important things. With all of the parties, I was afraid of not settling in well or my grades slipping." Many students said their jobs or school work got in the way of rushing. Others felt that by rushing, they were in a sense buying their friends. McGinnis said, "You're not just paying for friends, but for the benefits that come with the frat. You get a bond of brotherhood that is for life." Panhellenic Council is made up of seven sororities, all who participated in rush activities. The 10 fraternities that are still rushing are part of the Interfratemity Council. There are two historically African -American fraternities and three historically African-American sororities that make up the Pan-Hellenic Council. They will have membership intake later in the year. with support from Appalachian's Center for Student Involvement and Leadership.

The senators and cabinet members also met with their advisor, Dino DiBernardi, director of the Cen­ ter for Student Involvement and Lead­ ership. "They (the senators and cabi­ net) seem to mirror the student body," said DiBernardi. "They had real orga­ nized training with a good solid agenda." According to Darby Weaver, SGA president, goals this year include making SGA more interactive with stu­ dents, diversifying the campus of Ap­ palachian, renovating the library, and improving the transportation around Appalachian and the community. Michael Harkins, chief of staff, wants to redefine the role of chief of staff. As of now, the chief of staff heads the new senate elections and chairs the cabinet meetings. Harkins said that other than those duties, the role was a litde foggy. "I hope to set up guidlines for future chiefs of staff," said Harkins. Some of the new duties he will be performing are making sure the sena­ tors attend their RSA meetings and hall meetings, and holding the sena­ tors and cabinet members accountable for their positions. Several positions are still open in SGA, including that of trea­ surer. Twenty-two senator seats are available. Steppin' out... News Briefs Musicians to Perform Dr. Robert Falvo, associate professor of music at Appalachian, will perform in Rosen Concert Hall, Diesday, Sept. 26 at 8 p.m. with North Carolina Symphony trombon­ ist Jim Miller and oboist Alicia Chapman. The performance is free and open to the public. Falvo, a percussionist, is in his third year teaching at Appala­ chian. He and Chapman, who just moved from New York City to Boone, have formed a musical duo called "A due." Miller has written two of the pieces that will be performed. Pieces to be performed in­ clude "Racket!" "Tre Danze" and 'Sequenza No. 5." Aikido Is Offered at Appalachian Aikido is a new class that will be offered at Appalachian. Aikido is a martial art with a philoso­ phy rooted in the peaceful resolution of conflict and the promotion of har­ mony. Through physical training and study of practical self-defense techniques, students of Aikido learn 4 to incorporate these concepts into their everyday lives.

Accuracy and Public Service since 1936 Our opinion... Tenure policy should be followed Ed Disney: More than meet h the eye? 'Darling, it's better down where it's wetted Ken Larking Editorials Editor In 1993 the Committee on Personnel and Ten­ ure, in conjunction with the Committee on Educa­ tional Planning, Policies and Programs, submitted a report to the Board of Governors of the University of North Carolina system on the subject of tenure. The report stated that "the purpose of tenure is to assure faculty members academic freedom and protection against improper abridgements of the freedom of in­ quiry through teaching, scholarship, research, and creative activities; and to protect the right to pub­ lish or otherwise present scholarly work publicly without the threat of political or other sources of confining orthodoxies." That sure sounds good, doesn't it? It basically states that professors should be free of the pressures of teaching course material they don't agree with simply because the institution says they should. It also states professors should be able to print schol­ arly works without the threat of being punished for what they say. That, in itself, is a very noble goal. Professors should not be confined to the view of the whole institution. However, while the concept of tenure is a good one, the reality of it is often much less favorable. The report goes on to state that "tenure can be revoked for cause on grounds of incompetence, ne­ glect of duty or serious misconduct that precludes further association with the institution." The "neglect of duty" part of the report is what we are calling into question. For professors who can't seem to take the time to maintain their office hours to help students with questions and for others who simply do not feel they have to meet the require­ ments of their jobs, tenure is a shield protecting them from responsibility. Appalachian has claimed status as a school with an emphasis on teaching rather than research, and as such, should make sure its professors are making teaching a priority. When this is not the case, measures should be taken to correct the situation. Tenure should be viewed by this university as a privilege, not a right. If a professor is neglecting his or her duties to stu­ dents, that professor should be brought in front of a tenure board, whose focus is to make sure the stan­ dards of tenure are being upheld. If changes are not made by the professor, he or she should lose tenure and be replaced by someone who will make teach­ ing their students a priority. The last paragraph in the report explaining the concept of tenure states: "The quality of the Univer­ sity depends ultimately on the quality of its faculty. Historically, tenure has been a common feature of all major universities and colleges in the United States and crucial to the attraction and retention of outstanding faculty members. How that system op­ erates, the policies and procedures followed, and the standards applied will determine, in large measure, the quality of the faculty and of the University." We couldn't agree more. The Appalachian is published every TUesday and Thursday of the academic year with the exception of selected holidays and breaks.

It has been ar­ gued that the word appears in a dust cloud in one of the scenes of the hit movie. In recent years there have been many arguments that sexual messages, innuendoes, and suggestions appear in other Disney movies. The fact that sexual themes are so prevelant in Disney moves one to question Disney's motives. For instance, in "The Lion King" there were scenes that seemed a bit too sexual for the average "G" audience. One scene shows Simba (the Lion King) and Nala (the future Lion Queen) tumbling in the grass. Simba pins Nala to the ground, and while he sits on top of her, she looks at him seductively. And what about Pumbaa and Timon (the warthog and the meerkat)? Surley they represented a gay couple. Throughout the span of Simba's childhood these two did nothing but hang out together. They would run around, singing and dancing all day long, and when they were finally tired, Timon would be found sleeping on Pumba's stomach. Looked like cuddling to me. Pumba and Timon represented an inter-animalistic relationship of sorts. "The Little Mermaid" was filled with sexual images. For instance, on the poster there is clearly a representation of a penis in the underwater castle. Disney has sued the cartoonist because of it. Also, don't you think the bikini shells worn by Ariel revealed a bit too much. I'm sure that there was more than one guy watching who hoped for her shells to fall off. Don't forget about the line in the song Under the Sea" that read: "Darling, it's better, down where it's wetter." That had some underlying meaning I'm sure I don't need to get into. Also in "Mermaid," there has been some argument that when Ariel is walking down the aisle, the minister gets an erection. This idea was attributed to the fact that there was a slight shift in his pants, and to top it all off, he had a huge grin on his face. More recently, the movie "Pocahontas" has come un­ der fire for its portrayal of Pocahontas. She ranks up there with Judy Jetson on the "All-Time Hottest Babes in Cartoons" list. Not to mention the fact that the writers take the 13-yearold Pocahontas and set her up with a much older Capt. John Smith. In addition, the theme of bestiality is prevalent throughout the movie "Beauty and the Beast," for more than obvious reasons. Even in some of the older movies, sexual themes are present. In "The Lady and The Tramp," the dogs kissed over a bowl of spaghetti. What's the next obvious step? I mean—they are dogs. And what's up with seven guys living with "the fairest one of all" in "Snow White and the Seven Dwarfs?" Makes me Bashful just thinking about it. The dancing brooms in "Fan­ tasia": phallic symbols?

I real­ ized I was probably never going to beat this guy. Oh sure, I'll occasionally get in one of those uppercuts, but not enough to kill him. Something in his genetic make-up makes him better at Mortal Kombat II then I will ever be. Maybe when Mortal Kombat III comes out, I'll have my reckoning, but until then I guess I'll take my lumps. Then, for some reason, while playing this game, some part of me realized that all the scorn this game has re­ ceived for violence is not exactly without merit. The game is violent, in a borderline ugly way. I imagine my psyche has already been subjected to all the perversion it will re­ spond to, but to impressionable youngsters? There's a scene where one of the little Ninja-guys actually rips the arms off another one, and blood squirts out of the sockets. It's hard to label this as normal. So what would I do if I had a kid who wanted a vio­ lent video game? Not only would I buy it, I'd probably play it with him. I guess I am just not completely con­ vinced that exposure to violence will turn my kid into some kind of maniac, at least not a dangerous one. And if I didn't buy it, I'm sure he or she would just go next door or to the arcade. I know I was exposed to a lot of violence as a child and I don't feel particularly out of control. Admittedly, I would get together with childhood peers and try different wrestling moves, but I never tried to draw blood. Maybe it's just a natural part of adolescence to test one's physical capability, and not because of hours of profession tling. Animals are violent, and they rarely ever way fessional wrestling. Sure, kids shouldn't try to upper-cut erne anot while some video games may expose kids to gn violence, maybe there is more to it. Suppose ps violent. Human beings, perhaps by some natural are just a touch violent. I can't think of a timet beginning of mankind when there wasn't violent mainstream culture. Ever read "Sir Gawain andtl Knight" or Beowolf? Violence is nothing new, am violence to a certain extent helps people get outt their natural aggression. Perhaps by outletting into video games and TV where nobody is actual cally harmed, we are preventing such things asgk bear-baiting and other products of mankind's it violence. So as long as there are established line difference between fantasy and reality are explain let your kid rip off the arms of the Ninja-guy.

The answer : money or publicly defaming one BEFORE THEY ARE EN GUILTY.

Mr. Larking assumes that every smoker is so addicted that they can­ not do anything without smoking a cigarette. He also says smokers sit around and do nothing but smoke. Larking's comment that "smokers can sit in the break room or outside and smoke their cigarettes without any­ one in management bothering them" also hits a sore spot within me. I wish my boss would allow me to sit in the break room, smoking a couple of ciga­ rettes, without reprimanding me. My boss feels he is paying me to work, not to smoke. All of Larking's statements seem to be assumptions made from living with his wife, a smoker. A little ad­ vice to this Editorials Editor: don't write such a controversial article without doing more research. Your assumptions and observations that all smokers are like your wife are naive and simple. Not everyone runs to the store right before they run out of ciga­ rettes. They can foresee the problem and buy some before they run out. Maybe you need to take a look at the real world, it does include more smokers than just your wife. Lora Goins ASU Box 13919 l/rite us! ASU Box 9025 Steven Mackay Columnist Anita Hill has spoken. All hail the wise say­ ings of the queen of sexual harassment. All kid­ ding aside, last Tuesday night, Hill brought up some interesting points on the taboo known as sexual harassment. Well, except for the notion that complimenting a person's dress constitutes harassment, which is absolutely ridiculous. Hill correctly stated that there are plenty of scum out there who do make unwanted sexual advances on women (and men). The current prime example of sexual deviance is Senator Packwood (now there's a name with sub-text). She is also correct in her condemning of such inexcusable behavior, which does indeed need to "die" out. However, she missed one important point. There's a new victim in the sexual harass­ ment war - your constitutional rights. Mainly, the First Amendment. You know, that one about freedom of speech... and the press... and all that neat stuff. The hunt for those who harass has turned into a sickening witch hunt. The feminists who are supporting this war have set their sights on an innocent perpetrator : paper. Yes, those thin slices of wood fiber that are mainly used as a ve­ hicle for communication. Apparently, porno­ graphic material or anything remotely deemed "crude" can harass a person. Therefore it is wrong. This is apparent in the popular pink "Don't be a victim of sexual harassment" posters that hang everywhere on campus. On the same page that warns of real sexual harassment instances like assault and threats is the claim that, "Pin­ ups, posters, sexually derogatory cartoons, sexual magazines and calendars" are also forms of ha­ rassment. I've seen some strange stuff in my life, but I've never seen a piece of paper or a magazine either physically or verbally attack somebody. It's just logically impossible. Paper is not alive.

Sexual harassment is defined as un­ wanted sexual attention. If you think a piece of pa­ per is giving you attention, you need some psychiat­ ric attention. If you don't like what you're looking at, don't look at it! Have we reached a point of paranoid sensitivity and extremist political correctness? People are being punished for their preference in reading materials and art. I personally don't like pornographic books, mov­ ies and magazines, but they are still a protected right. However, many people on the left side of the political lines don't see it that way. They are, once again, tram­ pling over people's personal and fundamental rights in the name of a cause - feminism. When will their war end? Before or after we ban guys from campus for carrying around an issue of "Hustler"? Or maybe after we search private dorm rooms for "offensive" materials. Sound crazy? Hey, sexual harassment is against the law. The pink posters proclaim that all harassment claims will be investigated. These obvious threats of censorship are worse than anything conservatives can throw at us (Bob Dole merely suggested a voluntary crackdown on movie sex and violence, but he was still out of line doing it). Nothing is sacred to a group of people with a political agenda. If we let pornography or related sexual ma­ terials be banned because they are "incorrect," then we open the door for more of our rights to be van­ quished. The feminist claim that soft-porn magazines and movies reduce women to "sexual objects" is hypocriti­ cal to the fullest. Magazines which sexually depict males are flying off the shelf, and Brad Pitt doesn't pack movie houses because of his thespian skills. Women love the sex fantasy games as much as any guy. They're just good at hiding it. The day I see the NOW organization demanding that Mel Gibson do no more butt shots (God knows I wish he'd quit it), I'll think differently. The saddest aspect of this war is that it hurts the very cause that feminists proudly support. To put the words "sexual calendar" on the same page as horrific acts like "assault" and "rape" is an insult to the real victims of those crimes. You simply can not compare the two. Rapists and sexual predators need to be locked away forever (I'd personally like to see them publicly hanged, but that's another editorial), somewhat nor­ mal folks who like to read "dirty" magazines or draw "dirty" cartoons just need to be left alone. They're not hurting anybody but themselves. If the war on sexual harassment continues as is, we may find our First Amendment rights dying off instead of the sick behavior of a few persons. If some­ body is crushing your rights, tell someone! Don't be a victim of First Amendment rights harassment. Abstinence continued from page 4 defend your actions. Remember when I said some people would take offense if you don't offer them a greeting? Well, even more of them will take offense if you reply sarcastically. This can be fun for awhile, but unless you feel the need to totally ostracize your­ self from your peers, there are better approaches. The mocking modus operandi lasted me about two weeks. I then tried joining in. This seemed to please the masses, but herein lies a different set of com­ plexities altogether. For instance, whom does one say "hi"" to? Who gets a simple nod or a smile and who gets a full "whassup?"/nod/smile combination? What degree of farmiliarity does it require to war­ rant a semi-genuine-but-really-just-trying-to-be-nice smile, wink, or "sup?" I sure didn't know, and apparendy neither did anyone else. There would be people with whom I had struck up deep conversations that would visibly struggle to look up and smile at me as we crossed paths. Then there would be others that would be in the same class as I, and would bound out with a "HI, RICHARD!" from out of nowhere, af­ ter having not once spoken to me. What the hell?! We signed up for the same class and now we're linked for life? I bring up the idea of life commitment because there comes a point (particularly on a small campus) when you simply stop acknowledging someone's pres­ ence. You know; there will be a group project in­ volving you and a few strangers, you'll meet at the lihrarv nnrp •wice, do your presentation, and that's all, right? You had a nice litde educational bonding experience with no frills — not exactly. Every time this has happened with me, there has been one per­ son in the group that has felt compelled to say hello or something every time we see each other — even though there is no bond anymore. I'll oblige once or twice to say, "Yes, we were in a group together — it sure was fun, wasn't it? La-de-da!", but after that I must let them know it's over. I'll see them coming from 50 feet away, lock my eyes on the sky at an angle of 2 o'clock and avoid an interpersonal catas­ trophe. Unless they say my name, we aren't going to make eye contact and have that little dilemma about whether to blurt out unnecessary chitchat. The 2 o'clock thing has worked out so well that I use it all the time now. Instead of looking down, I will cast a positive (albeit aloof) image with my chin up and eyes gazing dreamily skyward (in your oppo­ site direction). It's great. No one says anything un­ less it is truly appropriate, and neither do I, if I even see them at all. I realize this may be a bit extreme, but it saves a lot of indecision. So the next time you want to be nice to me, don't ask me how it's going — just don't say anything. That's the nicest thing you could do for a socially abstinent misfit like me. nm 164-MSr "YOU CAN ALWAYS EAT WITH US" MONDAY 1 LARGE 16" New York Style Pizza with 2 toppings for 7.99 — Additional toppings are 1.05 each TUESDAY 2 MEDIUM 12" New York Style Pizzas with 2 toppings on each for 9.98 — Additional toppings are .95 each WEDNESDAY THURSDAY 1 LARGE 16" WHITE PIE (just cheese) No toppings for 6.99 — Toppings are 1.05 each 1 LARGE 16" New York Style Pizza (Thin Crust - just cheese) for 6.99 -— Toppings are 1.05 each DAILY SPECIALS ARE FOR DINING ROOM AND PICK UP ONLY BUY A LARGE 16 inch PIZZA FOR $6.99!!! plus tax DELIVERED Please call ahead and use our PICK-UP WINDOW �The Appalachian 21 Page 6 Fea tures Plemmons opens with 'Horizon ' #$$< I • John Starling Reporter In the past year, the music community has been drenched with acoustic - based pop from the likes of Hootie and the Blowfish and the Dave Matthews Band.

OK, it could happen. All right, it did happen. And I guess the campus police were out somewhere eating donuts... You see. I was at the Student Union Sun­ day night with about 50 other students watch­ ing College Bowl '95— a university versus university competition where the winner re­ ceives cash, prizes, and a scholarship to his/ her favorite school. Sound bogus? It was. The whole thing was a setup— the scene of an audience participation murder mystery. For those of you who have no clue of what I'm talking about, let me fill you in: it's more fun than Clue, the prizes are actually real money, and Agatha Christie and Sherlock Holmes don't get to play. Also, everything you need to know happens in the room, right in front of your eyes, so you don't have to follow the actors out to use the bathroom, etc. The exciting part of this is that the killer could be sitting beside you, or your neighbor could suddenly drop dead from poisoning. As for the dead people, we were asked to respect them— no kicking, hitting, or dragging the bodies allowed. Pat Smiley, the game show host with the most, explained College Bowl to everyone— like how it doesn't have a wheel because Opie, his assistant and obsessed fan, accidentally sent it to Kansas. The game consists of 3 play­ ers, 6 questions— to miss a question is to get a physical challenge, like do an animal im­ pression that Bambi (ditsy spokesperson) has to guess. Definitely a challenge, at least for someone like Bambi who couldn't figure out that dogs bark, not trees. The contestants were Troy— an Appala­ chian student majoring in cow-tipping, who enjoys bungee jumping off the Blowing Rock and mending moccasins; Matt— majoring in advance lawn maintenance and whose dream is for all the children of the world to join hands and sing "Kum-Bah-Ya"; and Felicia, who is pursuing her MRS degree. The questions were cheesy ones, like "Why are the academy awards nicknamed Os­ cars? Well, know the little dude on the award? Bette Davis thought his butt looked like that of her husband, Oscar. OK. I think it looks like the butt out in front of Walker Hall. Contestants came up with cheesy an­ swers, too, like that Marilyn Monroe mod­ eled for the Statue of Liberty, and pirates pierce their ears beause they can. And al­ ways remember that Spam spoils but honey doesn't.

Laverne and Bambi didn't commit suicide. see Who page 7 When it comes to standing up for what you believe in, students and professors involved in the Sustainable Development program deserve an award for their efforts in keeping the Cove Creek Farm in operation.

The Solar Cir­ cus sound, "is hard to catego­ rize, " says lead guitarist, Mark Diomede. Diomede says, "our music is a cross between Phish and the Grateful Dead." Solar Circus is, "cosmic dance music, " says Diomede. Ever since the release of their first album, Six Pack, in 1987, their music, "reaches a wider audience," says Diomede. Con­ sidering that Diomede is the only original member of Solar Circus, he says, "we are now comfortable with our sound and plan to stay together." Though Solar Circus has played in Boone, this will be their first big show. After grow­ ing up and listening to The New Riders of the Purple Sage, Diomede looks forward to per­ forming with them.

Everyone voted, and then the actors that were still alive came back out and did a final scene. The woman in the leather jacket confessed to the murders, and then attempted to kill Pat, too, but was killed first by Opie, who would do anything for the man she loved. And I guess they lived happily ever after. Sweet.

The Lady Mountaineers were able to carry that momentum on to Wednes­ day night's match-up against Winthrop, winning in three straight games and propelling their season record to 4-7. "It was very important to us," coach Dave Markland remarked on the winning streak. "I think the girls were starting to lose their confidence." The first win of the UNC-A tournament came at the expense of Tennessee State. TSU proved to be little match for the Lady Mountaineers, losing 15-2, 15-3,15-11. Next up for the Lady Apps were the Lady Rat­ tlers of Florida A&M. Apparently, their rattle was a little tougher than their bite as the Lady Mountain­ eers put them away in three games 15-11,15-6,15-6. The toughest match for Appalachian may have come in the last contest, against the tournament hosts, UNC-A. The Lady Mountaineers won the first two games 15-9 and 15-13, but had to go to extra points in the final game to beat the Lady Bulldogs 16-14. With a three match winning streak under their belts, the squad returned to Varsity Gym Sept. 19 to take on Winthrop. The Lady Mountaineers proved once again to be up to the task, beating Winthrop in three straight games 15-3,15-9,15-6. Sheri Leverette played big for the Lady Mountaineeers, hammering down a match high, 18 kills with a .700 attack percentage. Stephanie Young chipped in with eight kills while Paula Levay had seven. Kathy Granack turned in another solid per­ formance at setter racking up 31 assists. Defensively, the Lady Apps were lead by Jennifer Rumfeldt and Amy Kolomechuk. Rumfeldt provided eight of the team's 10 solo blocks while Kolomechuk had a team high, 10 digs. With Appalachian now on a four match winning streak, the Lady Mountaineers are starting to show glimmers of last year's squad that went undefeated through the Southern Conference. Coach Markland, however, is slow to make such comparisons. "We try not to look at the past," Markland ex­ plained. "I think it's going to be a tough year. The conference itself is getting stronger." The Lady Mountaineers embark on defense of their Southern Conference crownFriday at 7:00 p.m., as tfiey take on Georgia Southern in Varsity Gym. TOO MANY SPOILSPORTS RUIN THE GAME We are about one-quarter through the fall sem 1995. Just at the right time for a pop quiz. Stop groaning. And don't bother taking out paD ike pencil, there's only one question at hand. Be hon yourself. Question: Do you laugh when Deion Sanders h steps 50 yards into the end zone, swiveling halfwav to watch his pursuers fall farther and farther behind?'f' l/T/ behavior simply candid, honest passion for the game^ Or are you disgusted by such theatrics, including self among those who don't see a place in sports for ebration and showboating?

TW stomped out to a 23-7 lead — never a safe advantage^ J Coach Steve Spurrier's Gators at home, but maybe '^un to ensure a tight contest. That assumption proved weightless. Florida reeled, 48 straight points, on the way to a 62-30 win. Tennessf fans who had braved hostile elements (a Gator home cro" • and the spirit-sapping rain which began to fall during second half) might have screamed for release.

(photo by Shane Richardson) Lady Apps falter after good start Jason Somerville Reporter The Lady Mountaineer golf team got their season underway this past weeekend, playing in the Methodist College Invitational Tournament. The 10 team event proved challenging for the Lady Mountaineers, who ended up with a sixth place finish out of the 10 compet­ ing squads. The Mountaineers were fourth after the first round, with a total team score of 319, a mark that was just three strokes off of the school record for women's golf. Kelly Clements and Merryll McElwain paced the Lady Gridiron squad loses starter David Willis Assistant Sports Editor Brian Jean-Mary, a starting linebacker for the Mountaineers, underwent recon­ structive knee surgery in Boone on Mon­ day. Jean-Mary, from Apopka, Fla., started the last four games of the 1994 season, while Seeing action in all 13. He totaled 54 tack­ les and looked to be a major force on this year's squad, until an untimely preseason injury ended those dreams. The coaching staff hoped that surgery could be avoided and that he woud be able to play this year, but after a few weeks they realized that surgery was inevitable. Dr. Marc Cadyk of Boone did the surgery, which by all indi­ cations was successful . Jean-Mary received a medical redshirt from the NCAA and will still have two years of eligibility after this year. Good luck with rehabilitation! Jean-Mary xa Mountaineer squad in this first round, with both play­ ers posting scores of 77, strong marks for the open­ ing round of the season. Brittany Winterton also provided some support in the opening round with a score of 79, rounding out the top three for Appala­ chian After this strong first round, the outlook was very good for the team and both the players and Coach Bill Dicus expected a good last round finish. But the Mountaineers faltered in the second and third round of the tournament, posting a much higher score of 332, 13 strokes above their first round mark. The second round did , however, contain a ma­ jor highlight for the Lady Mountaineers. Meridyth Stanley shot the lowest single round of the tourna- ment for Appalachian , posting a 75 in her last round of play. The closest Mountaineer to her in the second round was Kelly Clements with an 82. The rest of the team was slightly farther behind. Coach Dicus commented that "we expected to do a little better in the second round, after our good performance in the first, we faltered a little, but overall, it was a pretty good beginning." The low finisher of the tournament for Appalachian was Kelly Clements, who finished 11th with a two round total of 159. Meridyth Stanley and Merryll McElwain also finished in the top 20, posting two round totals of 161and 163, respectively. The team returns to action October 6th at the Lady Kat Invitational at Kentucky, where the team looks to put together a good performance out on the blue grass. BACK IN MY DAY ... 4mJ The NCAA rule which punishes players for excess;: $ celebration and taunting is no different than other subje; £ five rules, like basketball's technical, or yellow and red cart 0 in soccer. Good intentions for sports is fine. It's the intti^ pretation of the rules which may need examining. College football referees appear to see the definite" of "taunting" through lenses of all shades. It could be tit' the season is too young. Football's zebras, invisible un; they disagree with us, have had but a few months to adjus to the rule. But does football even need this rule? Good intention ^ are one thing. Stifling the natural enthusiasm of an athles who is excited over a touchdown or interception is anothe (And believing that celebration is only acceptable after: score, or at the close of a game, is more than a litt/e t hypocritical.) Ordering a blanket over reactions (for the "sanctity an sportsmanship" of the game) is easy for a committee ofolc school men from a generation or generations past, whos; in a room to decide such things. Most films of college fa ball from the 1950s and '60s show fields full of hard-plai ing young men, going about their business in a grim stair scoring TD's and walking over to hand the pigskin toi Ref. Times have changed. And it raises the speculation: whether the NCAA is moving forward or sliding back. THINGS THAT MAKE YOU GO HMMM One more quiz question. How many times have yo. as a spectator in the home crowd or as a television viewe jumped to your feet to cheer a particular play? For a spot fan, this is a natural reaction, brief and spontaneous. t> one would presume to ask you to hold back. But those players actually participating in the gam surrounded by thousands of screaming voices, are suppose to maintain composure, to rein their emotions? Could ASU go l-A? Stephen Hensley Sports Editor Is Appalachian State's football team going to make the jump to the big time? The renovations to Kidd Brewer Stadium have started a host of rumors about the Moun­ taineers making the move to NCAA Division I-A status. "That is our eventual goal," reported Appalachian Athletic Di­ rector Roachel Laney. "But that is not in our immediate plans." Laney added that the current construction will give Kidd Brewer approximately the same seating it had before. However, a design is in the works that will give Appa­ lachian the opportunity to add on to the stadium in the future to give it the 30,000 seat capacity re­ quired of all Division I-A venues. There is much more to being a Division I-A program than just having a big stadium, though. Even though Appalachian State is ranked as one of the best squads at the Division I-AA level, the Mountaineers would struggle against other I-A foes. So for right now, the Appala­ chian State football team will stay in Division I-AA, but will do so with their eyes pointed towards the future. Kidd Brewer Stadium, in the midst of renovation will maintain the same capacity, for now.

Five Appalachian professors will work in conjunction with The University of Gnadsk in Poland to help them break from the former commu­ nist definition that a university is just ideological. Appalachian faculty mem­ bers involved in the program include Dr. Marvin Hoffman, associate profes­ sor of political science; Dr. Dennis Grady, chairperson of the political sci­ ence department; Dr. Max Thompson, associate dean of the political science department; Dr. Garry Cooper, assis­ tant professor of geography and plan­ ning and Dr. Rick Kirkpatrick, associ­ ate professor of economics. Appalachian was awarded a one-year, $112,000 grant by the U.S. Information Agency, which under­ writes cultural exchanges. "North Carolina has the strongest commitment to political city management than any other state in the U.S. and for the past 25 years, Appalachian has been on the forefront of city and county managers' training," said Hoffman. Hoffman, who also serves as the director of the program, said their objective is not to tell Gnadsk how to rural town governments. Hoffman returned last week from Gnadsk after interviewing and recommending 11 people to travelto the United States on Oct. 20. The visitors include four University of Gnadsk faculty members, six local gov­ ernment officials and the president of the regional assembly. During their month-long stay, the participants will learn how local governments operate and how local problems are aeait with on state dealt wun iroblems ational and national levels.

Open House is Planned for McKinney Alumni Center Appalachian State University's Alumni Association in­ vites all faculty and staff to an open house in the new McKinney Alumni Center Sept. 20 from 2 to 4 p.m. The 7,200-square-foot cen­ ter will serve as a campus home and gathering place for Appalachian alumni. About 450 university faculty and staff members are Appalachian alumni. The facility is located at the entrance of campus on Blowing Rock Road and houses the offices for alumni affairs and Appalachian's Foundation. "We are very proud of this facility. We feel this is history in the making to be the first privately funded building on campus," said Barbara Burgin, alumni affairs direc­ tor. "It willserve as a great gath­ ering place, a place to return to and call home. We hope faculty and staff will consider it home, too," she said. The center honors the late Sam and Virginia McKinney, both 1933 Appalachian graduates, who donated initial funds for such a facil­ ity. Since the early 1990s, alumni have raised donations to pay for the $1.5 million project. "I think this is just the be­ ginning of what they can do for the entire institution," Burgin said. Burgin said the center will be open a couple hours prior to each home football game. It will also serve as a welcome center to campus visi­ tors.

' 1 - Gore fc ran The Accuracy and Public Service since 1936 opinion... Our_ Where are our priorities? Appalachian State University is growing and im­ proving in leaps and bounds. These two terms "growing" and "improving" - are synonymous, aren't they? Surely they must be, for that is what we see happening on our campus, and why else would so much money be spent on expanding our campus if not to make it better? Some projects are quite obviously being built in order to better our university academically. The math and science building, for instance, is quite necessary considering Appalachian's growth in enrollment year after year. Even the Appalachian Convocation Cen­ ter has classroom space built into it for the Health, Leisure and Exercise Science department. The need for these things is not in dispute. How­ ever, Appalachian's priorities are. Why is our uni­ versity receiving millions of dollars to complete these projects while receiving next to nothing to improve our library which so desperately needs improvement? Funding for both the math and science complex and the ACC is provided by the General Assembly of North Carolina. Appalachian simply sent a report to the Assembly, which reviewed the request, and made allowances in the budget for certain amounts of money which had to be used for those specific projects. For example, Appalachian sent a request to the Assembly for money to build the ACC. The Assembly's reply was an allowance of over $10 mil­ lion. Priorities of Appalachian come into question. 6ther schools in the UNC system have seen the lack of funds the General Assembly allows for libraries in the 'earmarked' UNC budget. For this academic year, the total amount allotted for libraries was ap­ proximately $3.2 million. This amount was then di­ vided between the 16 schools in the UNC system. UNC Asheville has nearly doubled the size of its library through the same process by which we ob­ tained funding for the ACC. They asked the General Assembly for the money in 198&, and have just com­ pleted the project this year. Wasn't this money bet­ ter spent for the good of the students of the school? UNC Wilmington, a school with an enrollment of 8,600 students, has a library with as much usable space as our entire library, 140,000 square feet. We, however, need a library that will serve at least 4,000 more students; a number that is growing every year. The ACC should not be the first priority for Ap­ palachian at this time. Granted, the money is al­ ready given and must be used. It also may be true that libraries are not the "big money" campus attrac­ tions which draw students to a school. However, our university was growing in applicants before the ACC was approved, and though its construction has not even begun, we are turning down amazing num­ bers of applicants who want to attend this school; apparently with or without a huge basketball arena. Meanwhile, students who do enter ASU are hav­ ing a harder time with the library's limited dimen­ sions. With no financial help in the UNC budget cre­ ated by the General Assembly, our administration needs to ask for special funding for the library more than ever. It is time for ASU to reexamine its priori­ ties. The Appalachian is published every Tuesday and Thursday of the academic year with the exception of selected holidays and breaks.

Q u e s t i o n i n g A n i t a Hill's credibility The creation and motives of the 'Bosa Parks of Sexual Harassment' John Nolte Columnist In the Old South a black man was kept from obtain­ ing power by first portraying him as ignorant. Further refusal to conform resulted in a whipping, and finally the stubborn man was lynched and his remains left as an ex­ ample to discourage further thought of dissent and guar­ antee the status quo. Let me tell you a story. In October of 1991 an intelligent and compassionate Clarence Thomas was on his way to becoming a Supreme Court Justice. Frustrated Democrats, unable to intellec­ tually defeat him, felt threatened by his conservatism. Hav­ ing lost their southern voters to Reagan, it was clear that if any fraction of their loyal black base defected, the party as we know it today would no longer exist. Thomas' ef­ fect on black voters was a threat to the liberal establish­ ment and so-called civil rights groups who'd stopped rep­ resenting "all" people of color to become the "toadies" of the Democratic party. Using the tactics of the old South­ ern bigot, they set out to stop an independent black man from assuming power. First they stated that his lack of judicial experience made him too "ignorant" for this position. But dozens of Justices, including Earl Warren, had even less experience and no one questioned them. Still, no member of any socalled civil rights group protested a black man being singled out for this stereotypical question of intelligence.

Harassment," have convinced the apolitical she si must've told the truth. Clarence Thomas could not be given any credits any cost. Now, with his character safely swim rope, his influence on black voters is gone and the status quo is assured. Anita Hill and her wish to profit from sexual harassment, and nextwi use her speech to prove it. Feminism; A disappointing concep Angela Brady Editor-in-Chief John Lane Managing Editor When this didn't work, black liberals questioned the judge s "blackness" and accusations of him being an "Uncle Tom were used to "whip" his spirit. Still Thomas never weak­ ened. It was time to get a rope and her name was Anita. In an act of cowardice, Anita Hill had made anony­ mous 10-year-old charges against Thomas of the worst kind of harassment. Thomas was told of her accusations, but to the left's astonishment, he refused to withdraw. So her story was leaked to the media, and what Thomas himself de­ scribed as a "high tech lynching of an uppity black man began. We were told to believe that a Yale law graduate, after being harassed, followed her harasser from job to job for years, and after working together made numerous social phone calls, sent congratulations when he married, and even drove him to the airport. But then we were also told she was a Republican and had no political motives. Yet in February of 1992 on "60 Minutes" she told a speechless Ed Bradley she was a Democrat. "Newsday" later confirmed she was registered as one. Originally, Hill told the FBI that she had only one wit­ ness to corroborate her story until much to "her" astonish­ ment she was approached by three people who "reminded" her they, too, could corroborate. Her first witness was a judge who said in a sworn statement that in the spring of 1981 Hill complained of being harassed by Thomas. Hill had yet to even work for Thomas in the spring of '81. A corporate lawyer and a university professor both claimed Hill had told them of being harassed by her "supervisor." Calling the chairman of the Equal Employment Opportu­ nity Commission a supervisor is like calling the chancellor of Appalachian a manager. But both men said they were sure she meant Thomas. Yet both had opportunities in their professions to go on the record against this man they sup­ posedly knew was an harasser, but did not. The final wit­ ness couldn't swear it was Thomas. What the mainstream media never reported was that a supervisor of Hill's had been fired by Thomas after com­ plaints by staff members of lewd conduct and unwanted advancements. He also had an office next to Hill. Hill herself said of sexual harassers, "This is not an issue of one victim, this is a behavior." Yet her charges don't hold up to her own profile of a typical case. After five FBI, and God knows how many newspaper investigations, she Welcome to yet another potentially exciting year at Appalachian! In the Student Government Association, the past few weeks have been very busy. After being here all summer, preparing and organizing for this year, I must say it is great to see things being set into motion. This summer, both Robyn Martin, SGA vice-president, and I were successful in putting into action some of the changes we saw necessary to make sure SGA is reaching you. (We hope that it will be easier for you to voice your concerns and opinions more conveniently with the use of our new E-mail address: SGA@conrad.appstate.edu.) We have also been meeting with university administrators to start ful­ filling our platform goals for this year. I was very pleased by the student turnout for the Jeni Gray Walk for Awareness on Sept. 5th. This was the kickoff event for SGA's Public Safety Awareness Week, which included a safety forum, informational booths on bike safety, self-defense classes, and the National Clothesline Project, which displayed shirts made by victims of domes­ tic violence. Our goal for that week was to raise aware­ ness about safety on- and off-campus at the start of the school year, since it is such an important issue. We realize, however, that this one week is not nearly enough. We have to continue to work to prevent violence and promote safe behavior on campus, since Boone is not a safe haven from crime. To help with this, SGA provides the Mountaineer Escort service to students so that they don't have to walk alone. It is our hope that students will use this service frequently, starting Sept. 20th. (Call Mountaineer Escort at 262-6438.) Most recently, we finished the elections for Senate off and on-campus representatives. I was very impressed by the initial involvement. We had candidates running from each residence hall (except Bowie), and 44 candidates for offcampus. Unfortunately, their were not as many willing voters as willing representatives, and some of the candidates did not receive the 25 votes they needed to be elected. Therefore, there are 14 on-campus and 10 off-campus seats open, which can be filled by petitioning for 100 signatures from the specific constituency. It is my hope that these seats will be filled as soon as possible so that we have maximum repre­ sentation of all constituents on campus. Without that com­ plete input, the Student Senate is unable to make deci­ sions that accurately reflect the views of students on this campus.

And yet, I hesitate to label • «elf as a feminist because of the I rying definitions and connotations term has come to acquire. |rhe birth of feminism Like any movement which seeks better the conditions of one sect of :iety, feminism has taken some hard iws. Since the 1960s, sexism has be­ ne a hot topic. There is a problem h the fact that some think that sexi was bom in that decade. Sexism ; been around for longer than any is can remember. Now that women seen as more than just baby-makmachines and food providers, it is e for people to realize that femim also wasn't born in the '60s. I was introduced to feminism en I watched the movie "Mary ipins" as a girl. Watching Mrs. Banks run off toting a sign to a suf­ fragette rally, I was amazed to learn that at the time the story took place, women weren't allowed to vote. 1 re­ member being puzzled by this as my mother explained it to me. • Sexism is a learned behavior Sexism isn't an inborn concept. Ask any child which of their parents is stronger and they will say "Daddy." Then ask which one cooks better and they will probably say "Mommy." These things may very well be true, but it is natural for them to learn these responses from television and through observing adults' interaction. If you look in the baby section of any department store, you will see sports as a theme for the little boys' things. The girls' merchandise will show "feminine" things like butterflies, teddy bears, hearts or flowers.

It doesn't matter that this dislike is brought about by fear. Because she is a part of several oppressed groups, she has a longer ladder to climb to get to that glass ceiling which feminists call equality. It is when a woman is judged by her merit, not her gender, that femi­ nism will no longer be a necessary springboard from which women go forth in life, striving to be treated equally in all areas of life.

What is Watauga College? It was created in 1972 when Appalachian became a state supported school and was beginning to grow beyond its "small college" reputation. Watauga College was organized for those incoming students who wanted the smaller atmosphere of a residential college (yes, they live with the people they go to class with). It also offers an interdisciplinary approach to classes. The classes are taught by overlapping certain courses. World history and English are in a combined curriculum so that after one year, the students have completed the classes comparable to those that a freshman would have gone through in the regular curriculum. The classes are no different than traditional classes, in that they are taught by a professor in a classroom. However, the approach taken to the concepts taught in class is what separates Watauga College from the normal curriculum at Appalachian. Teachers don't confine subjects to one particular discipline; they cross boundaries. Watauga College Director David Huntley says, "We produce thinkers. They use their knowledge and come to conclusions based on their own thoughts, not by what the teacher says." Huntley describes the average Watauga student as having a curious nature. "They are here for what students should be here for - to learn as much as they can," says Huntley. Haverly Rauen, a sophomore from Knoxville, Tenn. says, "Personally, I think Watauga is the best thing that 1 have done in college so far. The community and way of learning is ideal - at least for me." Watauga College is not only a freshman experience. To graduate from this college officially (an honors program including a gold seal on the diploma), a student must fill several requirements. One of these requirements is freshman and sophomore Chatauqua. Chatauqua, a one credit-hour course that meets at Legends on Wednesday afternoons, serves as a time for all Wataugans to come together and listen to announcements while getting to know one another. This meeting, referred to by Bud Gerber, a professor of Watauga College, as a "cultural massage," includes talent shows, plays, bands and other special events. Landon Pratt, a junior from Kingsport Tenn., who graduated from Watauga College added, I liked Watauga because instead of always getting factual information, the learn­ ing is more conceptually centered." To graduate, students must fulfill 24 credit hours, which are taught in the basement of East Hall, Some other courses, similar to electives, include the Beatnik Generation, Fractals, Women's Spiritual Journey, Performing Art, and Experience Appalachia! Jessica Bono, a Watauga sophomore from Waxhaw, said, "Watauga is kind of scary, but it gave me a great feeling of accomplishment." Another Wataugan, Christian Leplin, a sophomore from Greensboro, said, "It's like high school on a college level; sheltered and ultra-communal. But the classes are rigorous and the professors are diligent." While Watauga College may not conform to many traditional views of college, it offers many new ideas as to how students should be taught. Although the experience may not be everyone's cup of tea, it certainty offers a new approach for many new students. Watauga College is located on the back of East Hall, (photo by Robert Parriott) At the beginning of every new aca­ demic year, a batch of new and return­ ing students arrive on campus. For the new, there are questions like "How am 1 going to do here?" and "Wili I miss home?" For the returning, thoughts such as "Will I be able to handle every­ thing as well as I did last year?" or "Am I going to have to face that person 1 ticked off?" come to mind. It happens to every student when school starts: anxiety and stress. Whether we realize it or not, we all have some kind of stress dumped on us be­ cause of school, particularly at the be­ ginning of the year. Everyone stresses over the classes they have, assignments, getting involved or getting out and meeting people. Many freshmen also find homesickness a huge problem. Often, students deal with their anxiety by talking to someone, calling home, lis­ tening to music or exercising. Some stu­ dents, however, choose unhealthy ways of dealing with stress, such as drug or alcohol use, missing class, or staying she! tered from others. Sophomore Jana Moose of Hamptonville, N.C. experienced the anxi­ ety of coming back early in the year. She stated that everything was fine, "until the first day of class." All of the new situations and oppor­ tunities seemed to be too much for her roommate, who abruptly packed up and left after classes ended that day. Moose's time alone drove her nuts. She had so much to think about, but no one to talk to about it. Soon, she became homesick, which compounded her stress. To relieve her anxiety, Moose got out more, talked to friends and kept busy, all of Everyone stresses over the classes they have, assignments, getting involved or getting out and meeting people. which helped her tremendously. Freshmen tend to experience many of the same kinds of eties, the bulk of which is attributed to homesickness, as freslr Erin Poage attested. She started missing her home in San Ann Texas after a short while. She handled the stress by "(making)» be outgoing and (hanging) out with the friends I've met." Ait freshman, Mike O'Neal, saw a problem immediately upon arrivf school: making friends. "If you're from out of state, it's hard t anyone who's even remotely near where you're from," he said. Hi take long for O'Neal to start meeting people, which alleviated his: ety. Dr. Donald Sanz of the Appalachian Counseling and Psychs, cal Services Center says anxiety is extremely common at the sir the year. The anxiety differs between new and returning studs Both groups share the problems of meeting and achieving expt tions, academic life, social life, and leaving friends and loved o Returning students stress over the changing environment of sc when they move, as well as their major and course selections.' students deal with pressures connected with leaving home, sue living in a new environment and missing parents.

Sanz also recommends seeking the help of the workers a: Counseling Center if a problem should arise. The Wellness andS: Management Center helps students cope with their situation: teaches relaxation. The Substance Abuse Center provides a plat turn for students who have developed a problem with alcohol ore drugs. There is individual and group counseling, as well as oum programs through residence halls and organizations. Sanz en; ages students to come by if they feel they need the help. Anxiety and stress are problems we all have to deal with noi as college students, but as members of society.

Apps down Aggie, Tailback Damon Scott leads the way to victory over North Carolina A&T David Willis Assistant Sports Editor Appalachian State University's football team got off to its best start since 1988 with a dramatic 38-31 win over North Carolina A8tT Saturday afternoon at Aggie Stadium. Behind a touchdown with 0:15 seconds re­ maining in the fourth quarter, A&T took over the ball at its own 46. Looking for a big play like the 55 yard touchdown reception it got from Cedric Combo just over a minute before, ASU defensive linemen Jason Hatcher and Shawn Elliot sacked Aggie quarterback Maseo Bolin and held on for the win. The Mountaineers came out of the gate with a full head of steam as they capitalized on their first possession of the game. Keyed by full­ back Aldwin Lance, the Apps moved the ball 81 yards in 8 plays, including a 20-yard TD reception by Lance, putting ASU up 7-0. Following a stalled drive by the Aggies, the Mountaineers mounted an 89 yard touchdown drive lea by the combined running of Scott Satterfield, Damon Scott, and Lance. On the 13th play of the drive, Scott went up the middle for two yards and the TD. The Apps lead in­ creased to 14-0. The Aggies were not going to surrender as they mounted a drive of their own. Led by QB Maseo Bolin, A&T passed its way down the field for 72 yards and the touchdown. Tight end Carlos Baldwin found a seam up the middle for a 14-yard catch for the score. The Aggies were the first team this season to score on ASU in the first half. The lead was now 147. The Mountaineers, not happy with the seven point lead, continued their offensive at­ tack, this time led by the running of Damon Scott. After tallying 67 yards on the drive, Scott increased the Apps lead with a one yard scor­ ing run. The Mountaineers added a Jay Sutton 26-yard field goal to go ahead 24-7 at the half. Appalachian's rushing attack was virtu­ ally unstoppable in the first half, recording 236 yards on 33 carries. Damon Scott led the way with 148 yards on 15 carries. The Mountaineers have outscored their oppo­ nents 70-7 in the first half this season, but have not enjoyed the same luxury in the second half. For the third consecutive game, the App de­ fense gave up a touchdown on their opponents opening second half drive. The Aggies relied on the running of Milton Shaw, who gained 64 yards on three carries. Lafaunte Smith ended the drive with a one yard run and the Aggies second score of the day. After a bad snap on the PAT, ASU led 24-13. The Mountaineer offense however, stalled in the third quarter until defensive back Jamie Coleman intercepted a pass and went 80 yards for the score, but a holding penalty brought the ball back to the A&T 43. Five plays later, the Apps would score their first points of the half on an eight yard Scott run. The Moun­ taineers led 31-13 with 1:54 left in the quarter.

On Sept. 25, Jacqueline Greene will start her new job as nurse practitioner. According to Dr. William Derrick, director of the Infirmary, a nurse practitioner will be able to do the same things as a doctor. With three doctors on staff, this will allow more students to be seen more efficiently. Nurse practitioners are allowed to examine, diagnose and prescribe medication for any patient, except in cases of cancer or heart conditions. "Waiting time is a big issue," said Derrick. He says that this year is better than last year as far as waiting time goes. On the average, most students wait around 25 min­ utes, Derrick said. At 10 a.m., 1 p.m. and 3 p.m. the Infirmary has its biggest rush. "Normally between the nurses and the doctor, I've been here a long time," said Tracy Rogers, senior. "With a new nurse prac­ titioner, it would be faster." "To get to the nurses it usually takes a long time," said Jennifer Sopel, junior, "but when you're sick, it seems to take a really long time." Health services sees between 250300 students daily. Each doctor sees approxi­ mately 40-60 students a day. Dr. Derrick said many college infir­ maries are run by nurse practitioners. Furman University's infirmary is run by a nurse practitioner, and UNC Charlotte's infir­ mary was run by a nurse practitioner until a doctor was hired this year. this Construction delays force offoad work blocks campus students into hotels 10 parking spaces Pam Griffin Reporter Some off-campus students who are renting from the Winkler Organization are having to live in a hotel. The students, who are supposed to be living in Steeplechase Apartments, have been provided temporary accommodations in High Country Inn and Graystone Lodge. The apartments, located on Wood Circle near the intersection of Highways 421 and 105, were scheduled to be built by Aug. 21. Due to delays in getting the plans ap­ proved, weather conditions, and other last minute building requirements, ,the apartments were not ready on time for students to move moving in, but what does a day or two mean when dealing with something that will affect Jan Winkler, property manager at the their safety?"

(Photo by Shane Richardson) Many faculty members voiced their opinions about the new fee for faculty to use the Quinn and Mt. Mitchell Fitness Centers at Monday night's Faculty Senate meeting. "We do not resent the magnitude of the fee," said Dr. Howard Neufeld, associate professor of biology. "It is just the way it was handled." He said many faculty members did not like the fact that it was proposed against their wishes and also that the "go-ahead" came from higher up. Most of the members felt therevenues generated from the fee would not make a difference in student fees. He also said faculty salaries at Appa­ lachian are not as high as at other universi­ ties, so any benefits could help faculty moral and also help them to stay healthy. "It is something the university should supply," said Neufeld. He said the Hubbard Center is paid for by state funds for the faculty to use. Al­ though students paid for the Quinn Center to be built, Neufeld still felt the Quinn should be Ppalachian is published »i,h ,upper, r,„m Appalachian's Ccnie, fo, S.uden, l„,„lvcme„, and Leadership. 0„, offices are loaned „„ ,he second to, included as part of faculty benefits. Last spring, Dr. Howard Dorgan pre­ dicted the fee would cause conflict between faculty and students. "It is pushing us into a confrontation with students," he said. "I do think student fees are too high, but this is not the way to solve the problem." Neufeld said some of the faculty senate members have participated in events in order to protest the rising of student fees. The rally which took place in Raleigh on May 4 is just one of those examples. "We are very concerned about stu­ dent fees," said Neufeld. Nina-Jo Moore, associate professor of communications, said that although the fee is not a major issue, she does not like the idea. "There are very few perks for faculty on cam­ pus as it is," said Moore. Dr. Vaughn Christian, chair of the Health, Leisure and Exercise Science depart­ ment, felt the fee was reasonable. "I do know of other universities who have to pay more money to use their gym," said Christian. Harvey Durham, provost and vice chancellor for academic affairs, said he would look into the possibility of the university off­ setting the cost of the fee. For now, however, the fee is still in place.

"It was disappointing to come up to Boone and not know ex­ actly when we are going to move into our apartment," said Jennifer Danielson, sophomore. Meredith Claxton, also a sophomore, said, "The five percent discount does not even cover expenses for a week." Winkler has been extremely sensitive toward the situation of the tenants. She said she knows it has been tough on the students. "It is the hardest thing I've ever had to deal with to have to tell the students the apartments are still not finished," said Winkler. For now, the tenants said they are fortunate to have clean, com­ fortable accommodations. They have access to a restaurant and pool at the hotels. The phones in the rooms can be hooked up to answering machines as well. "The tenants have been pre­ cious to work with and are very un­ derstanding, said Winkler. "I praise them for that." According to Winkler, the apartments are expected to be ready sometime this week. continued from Page 1 ing forward and reporting sexual ha­ rassment. "What we have to learn is that we have a system in Washington that allows it (sexual harassment) to happen," said Hill. "People are turn­ ing their backs and justice is not be­ ing served." Hill concluded her speech by saying that she wishes to see the prob­ lem of sexual harassment end in her lifetime. She said it was up to this generation to put a stop to sexual ha­ rassment before the next generation has to suffer the effects as well.

The conference will bring together over 2,000 young activists to share strategies for building healthy communities and a healthy planet. SEAC is a grass-roots, youth-run and youth-led organi­ zation working for environmen­ tal and social justice. As a net­ work of over 2,000 high school and college groups and 30,000 members in all 50 states, SEAC is the largest stu­ dent environmental organization in the US. The upcoming conference will focus on the role of young people in working for global change and will feature youth leaders from the envi­ ronmental and social justice move­ ments. Confirmed speakers include Vandana Shiva (Third World Net­ work), Barbara Dudley (Executive Di­ rector of Greenpeace), and Cecilia Rodriquez (National Commission for Democracy in Mexico). Students interested in at­ tending the 1995 SEAC National Con­ ference should call the SEAC National Office at 1-800-700-SEAC. Meister Selected for ASCAP Award Dn Scott Meistep professor of music at Appalachian State University, has received a 1995-96 ASCAP Award. ASCAI) die American Soci­ ety of Composers, Authors and Pub­ lishers, is a licensing agency which collects royalties paid by individuals, musical groups, radio stations and oth­ ers for the right to play or perform ASCAP licensed works. Meister, an ASCAP member for more than 20 years, said the award was designed to honor composers whose music is not normally heard on commercial outlets, such as radio or television. The cash award "reflects our continuing commitment to assist and encourage writers of serious music," according to Marilyn Bergman, presi­ dent and chairman of the board of ASCAP "They (the awards) are granted by an independent panel and are based upon the unique prestige value of each writer's cata­ log of original compositions as well as recent performances of those works in areas not surveyed by the Society." Meister has written com­ positions for percussion, band, voice, chorus, bassoon and orches­ tra. His most recent work, "Higaz," was premiered this spring by Appalachian's University Sym­ phony. He was commissioned to write a piece commemorating the opening of Broyhill Music Center in 1983 and has been commis­ sioned to write works for high school bands. He has also written works for members of the School of Music faculty. Many of his more than 100 compositions have been per­ formed in Japan, Puerto Rico, Eu­ rope, Amsterdam and the United States. Lunch With Uncle Sigmond The Appalachian State University Counseling Center Staff will host "Lunch with Uncle Sigmond" on Tuesdays from 12 p.m. until 1 p.m. in the Rhododen­ dron Room of the Student Union.

Tak© an activ© role to make campus your own Last year, students across campus voiced their opinions on everything from "A" to "Z"; but especially "A". The ACES controversy upset many students on campus, but it did serve a useful purpose, as well. The controversy served to get more students in­ volved in campus politics and campus issues than tiny other in recent history. That involvement car­ ried over into SGA elections, resulting in a large voter turnout and results so close they called for a runoff. The results of the runoff made some students happy, jsome students sad, but all students had something •to be proud of. I he fact that so many students got involved in campus politics should make it clear to students that they have a voice on this campus which deserves to be heard. Students should not sit back and think that since they got involved last year, their duty is done, and they can go back to being apathetic, think­ ing that things will take care of themselves. Robyn Martin, SGA Vice President, says that last year's controversy has, so far, made for great partici­ pation with SGA. "The controversy last year made people want to get involved," Martin said. We at The Appalachian certainly hope that is true. SGA president, Darby Weaver, said that voter turn­ out for off-campus senators was good "for off-cam­ pus." Approximately 200 people voted. Not a high number when compared to the number of off-cam­ pus students at Appalachian, but Weaver contends that it is a pretty high number when compared to voter turnout of the past. Turnout for on-campus senators was good "in some residence halls," according to Weaver. How­ ever, it still left 10 seats open. Students need not feel that since they have elected the president and vice president, their jobs are done. Weaver and Martin stressed in their cam­ paigning a desire for an open-door policy with stu­ dents, and maintain that that is still their goal. "Our office hours will be posted on our doors this week, said Martin. "Students can come and talk to us any time." Martin said that if a student has a concern and knows which area it falls under (i.e. Academic Affairs, etc.), he or she may go directly to the chairperson of that committee. If a student has a concern and is not sure who to address it to, Martin says he or she can simply come to the SGA offices and talk to anyone there. Martin says she or anyone else in the office will be happy to direct your con­ cerns to the appropriate person. At a time when the campus political climate is so tenuous, students need to take measures to ensure their voices are heard. They can do that by using the student government which they put in office. By voicing your concerns to your elected repre­ sentatives you can This campus does not need to be in the midst of a crisis for students to get involved in what is going on around us. There are plenty of concerns which can be addressed, and perhaps they can be taken care of before they become major crises.

Newspaper's ban unconstitutiori: •Nebraska coach violates school newspaper's rights e* Ken Larking Editorials Editor Last week, Nebraska football coach Tom Osborne banned reporters from the Daily Nebraskan, the school's newspaper, from covering the team's practices. His reason for doing this, he says, is because the paper published two editorial cartoons criticizing certain members of the team. Osborne felt that the paper's presence would distract the team. Osborne argued that covering the practices was a privi­ lege and not a right. Only after several school officials criticized Osborne's decision did he lift the ban. Osborne's ban on the school newspaper was a viola­ tion of the First Amendment. The First Amendment out­ lines the freedom of the press. The Daily Nebraskan had every right to attend the practices. In a similar case, argued before the Supreme Court, a reporter was denied access to the White House because he had written some critical articles about that see First Amendment page 5 Marijuana should be legalize! •'Drug's medical and commercial benefits outweigh the drawback Terri Butler Columnist One of the most controversial issues in the '90s is whether the cannabis or hemp plant, more commonly known as marijuana, should be legalized. Presently, doctors and physicians all across the United States are working toward proving to the Drug Enforce­ ment Agency (DEA) and the President the medical benefits marijuana has for hun­ dreds of critically ill patients. Since 1978, 36 states have had physicians' approval for the use of marijuana because it treats nau­ sea, pain, muscle spasms, and stimulates appetite. It can also be used to alleviate symptoms of glaucoma, Acquired Immune Deficiency Syndrome (AIDS), multiple scle­ rosis, migraine headaches, and the effects of chemotherapy on cancer patients. But legal, bureaucratic, and financial obstacles are in the physicians' way, no standards of studies or experiments can be done which would pacify the DEA. Since no marijuana can be obtained legally and the government will not grant any researchers' permission to use the drug in their studies, no research can be done. Although, the 1988 DEA's own law Judge, Francis Young, concluded, marijuana is one of the safest therapeutically active substances known to man." Even with the remark­ able safety of marijuana because it is less likely to become addictive than most prescribed drugs, less subject to abuse, and the fact that there is not one documented case of le­ thal marijuana overdose, the DEA still will not listen to pleas of physicians, and the hundreds of Americans who need marijuana for medical reasons. In 1990, oncologists across the United States were sur­ veyed and 44 percent of the doctors admitted they had suggested smoking marijuana to their cancer patients even though marijuana is illegal. Studies in the Journal of the American Medical Association (JAMA), who support the medicinal use of marijuana, feel the medical uses far out­ weigh the supposed harmful effects of recreational use. If marijuana is truly as harmful as the government puts on to the public, doctor recommendations for use of the drug would be unthinkable. But because Bill Clinton is reluc­ tant to support a study that could lead to accusations of supporting an illegal drug, no studies are taking place and Although polls have indicated that the vast majority of Americans think marijuana should be medically available, government officials and the DEA still refuse to acknowledge the tremendous variety of uses for the plant. severely ill patients continue to use the drug illegally. AIDS sufferers support the medicinal use of marijuana because it replaces the prescription drug Marinol. Marinol contains tetrahydrocannabinol (THC) which is present in marijuana and stimulates the appetites of the patients. But Marinol causes such a mental incapacity that the AIDS suf­ ferers are unable to think straight. AIDS patients are quoted in JAMA as saying, "Smoking marijuana is easier, cheaper, and does not cause the mental incapacity Marinol Residence halls lack disciplim The Appalachian welcomes letters to the editor.

Convocation speaker doesn't have much to say To the Editor: I was one of the many students that was, more or less, "forced" to go to Convocation on Thursday. I re­ member thinking, "If this man speaks as well as he plays jazz piano, then I am in for a real treat." Well, the sweet treat turned sour Convocation morn­ ing. The reason was the so-called 'speech" by author and award win­ ning musician, Dr. Billy Taylor. This "speech", to put it tactfully, was poor at best. Dr. Taylor, whose talk was to be on jazz as a metaphor to American culture, really just stood and rambled on about everything ex;ept that topic for 25 minutes. Now I am not a communication major, but I do know a little about speaking and speeches. I know that preparation is the first step, and keeping the focus of the subject is second. Dr. Taylor id not even have a speech prepared, nuch less stay on the subject!! Yes, Dr. Taylor talked about inluences in his life, and how we as individuals can make a difference. It's not that these topics are inappropri­ ate, but the University could have got­ ten a student out of the communica­ tions department to speak on these subjects, and saved the school's money in the process!! Oh, I'm sorry, he did say one thing about jazz and Ameri­ can Culture. To paraphrase: Jazz im­ provisation is like democracy in America in that they both express free­ dom. Gee, I could have said that. The one question I have is this: Do you think Dr. Taylor, having been to the White House five times, would have rambled to the President as he did to our faculty and students? Well, I think you know my answer. Lastly, I would like to say to the Administra­ tion that before they spend hard earned bucks on Convocation speak­ ers, to at least make sure these speak­ ers have the decency to prepare some­ thing to say. Jason White ASU Box 14103 Praise for editorials To the Editor: I am a senior and also a member of the ASU Track team. I have been reading The Appalachian for three years now and I must say that I en­ joyed last Thursday's paper above all others. The Editorial pages were the reason. Never before have there been so many issues nor have there been so many vocal people on campus. I think that it is wonderful that people are so aware of what is going on. Jon Austin ASU Box 18743 Student thinks teachers deserve a break To the Editor: As a student here at Appalachian, my expectation for the future is a job. I will be paid for the work I do as well as for the knowledge base acquired through my education. I have to question the reasoning of the recent decision and subsequent article "Faculty forced to pay own way." Why? Historically, students would pay to come to work through parking fees. Perhaps they should pay rent on the classrooms in which they teach. Given the current political climate in Raleigh, the mean-spirited decision to make faculty pay fees to use the Quinn Center and other facilities can only create animosity and low morale. Budget cuts have reached everyone. However, this student's fees were not lowered as a result of faculty being "Forced to pay own way." The article claimed that students were for this decision.

It's a good place for them to go during a long break.' -Sonja Davis, Senior -Clark Short, Senior administration. The Supreme Court ruled that the reporter's rights were violated because the denial was dis­ criminatory. Excluding the Daily Nebraskan from practices represents a discriminatory denial of access to a reporter and is therefore unconstitu­ tional. Osborne violated the newspaper's First Amendment rights in another way: he attempted to keep the press from getting the news. A recent court ruling stated, "The news-gathering ac­ tivities of the press are also constitu­ tionally protected under the First Amendment, because the 'right to pub­ lish the news would be of little value in the absence of sources from which to obtain it."' According to this, the school newspaper hits the right to go to practices since news-gathering is protected by the Constitution. One of the cartoons is a represen­ tation of receiver Riley Washington playing football in a prison uniform and a ball and chain. He has been charged with attempted murder, but remains on the team. The other cartoon satirized run­ ning back Lawerence Phillips in a car with a license plate reading "Phillips" and money coming out of the back. His relationship with a sports agent was recently investigated by the NCAA. These cartoons were simply parody, and are protected by the Con­ stitution. Phillips was arrested during the weekend, along with fellow running back Damon Benning, for allegedly assaulting women. Subsequently, Osborne cut Phillips from the team. In addition, split end Reggie Baul received six months probation for credit card theft, cornerback Tyrone Williams has been charged with shooting at a moving car, and defensive tackle Christian Peter was convicted of sexual assault and is in­ volved in another sexual assault case. It seems that the Daily Nebraskan was right on target by criticizing the team. And, it seems Osborne fi­ nally realized that it was not the Daily Nebraskan that was distracting team, it was certain players. So Coach Osborne, before you blame the team's problems on somebody else, make sure your problems aren't the team. Residence Halls Continued from page 4 than likely the student went to Judi­ cial Affairs, and if he was found guilty or in violation, he was probably put on probation. Now, I am used to pro­ bation meaning that if you get in trouble again, they pretty much call Wyatt Earp in. So what happens if a student who is on probation gets in trouble again? The student is more than likely put on spe­ cific proba­ tion. As the story goes, if you get one more violation once you are on specific probation you are removed from the residence halls. But, like I said earlier, I have never seen someone re­ moved from the residence halls, though I have seen some people break most all of the violations. I guess if using probation some of the time is good, then using it all the time is great. Fm not saying we need to turn the residence halls into some kind of Puritan war camp. I recognize that some leniency is a fair thing, given the fact that most college students are young, and if anything like me, make a lot of mistakes. But if college is sup­ posed to prepare people for the "real" world (a phrase I hate) then shouldn't college at least re­ semble it?

The station hopes the ange will appeal to a greater number of stu­ nts. Jonathan Mauney, The App's general maner, is looking forward to the new format and ogramming changes. He spent part of the mmer studying the operations of several mmercial stations and hopes to translate )se ideas into success on campus. "Our number one goal is to increase (tenership by playing music people want to ar. We feel that an alternative format will lp us reach this goal," says Mauney. The format features a rotation of songs current popular bands such as Silverchair, annis Morrissette and Filter. This playlist is ppered with a host of specialty shows covng jazz, country, rap, reggae, industrial, iavy metal, classical, Christian, and new sic from independent labels. Jason Huddle hosts a morning show on ekdays featuring his unique, humorous spin the world. His motto is: "If you have to go class anyway, you may as well have some The App also covers sports and news, injding call-in talk shows and live coverage of palachian football and basketball home [mes. The station is kicking off the year with |ily give aways of CD's, t-shirts and tickets to a concerts. The App gave away 30 tickets (Widespread Panic in Raleigh last week, and iving away tickets to Better Than Ezra this ek. They are also giving out four guest ses for every live show at The Klondike Cafe |s year. The App plans on working with Stu­ nt Programs as well as The Appalachian to p students informed of shows and events. Students response to the new format has n very good. Shannon Willard, a freshman it Winston-Salem, says, "It's great. They stuff you don't hear much on regular comcial stations." "I like the music better this year," says AnOwen, a senior from Boone. "I listen to m more than I have in the past." Mauney says, "My staff and I are very exd about the coming year, and we've worked I y hard to mold the station into something I ryone at Appalachian can enjoy. There are II opportunities to get involved, and we wel|ie all comments about the station." j The station, which operates under the call rs WASU, is in its 23rd year of operation, a public station fully licensed by the FCC, gives students hands-on experience in all as of radio broadcasting. Anyone interested olunteering can contact The New 90.5 FM 62-3170. Roy Reuter cues up another song at The App, the new WASU, located on the third floor of Wey Hall. WASU did more than change their name this year, they changed their format as well. (Photo by Ken Larking) 'of many jammys at jammy jam "I can never find the books I need." "Why don't they have my favorite magazine subsciption?" "The library stinks!" These are all phrases we hear quite often about the li­ brary here at Appalachian. The library has a bulletin board beside the circulation desk that is always full of com­ plaints about the availability of material. Why are so many students complaining? One of the reasons that some students are complaining and having such a hard time finding their material is because many of them do not know how to use what the library has to offer. According to library staff member John Yantiss, "I really feel like a lot of the com­ plaints students make are things that they could solve themselves, like learning the dif­ ferent location codes. That would be a tre­ mendous help." Belk Library has several different codes that are put in tront ot tne call numoers on a book to help students locate the item. For example, a code of "Main Stacks" means the book is located in the library's circulating col­ lection on the third floor. For students who do not know what the codes mean there are posters up all over the library outlining the different meanings. Any library employee also will be able to answer students' ques­ tions. Appalachian senior Monica Wakefield says about the staff, "Over the past four years I've used this library more than I care to re­ member, but every time I come here I am pleased with the courteous, energetic, dedi­ cated and thorough help I recieve." Dr. Mary Reichel, university librarian, says that starting soon, the Computer Assisted Instruction previously done through the His­ tory Department will be done through the English Department. Students will be re­ quired to write a short research paper with materials gathered from the library. This will help to farmiliarize students with the differ­ ent rescources available and how to use them. Another fact that students must take into consideration is that the library is severly un­ derstaffed according to the American Library Association (ALA)'s recommended library staff-to-library faculty ratio. The ALA recommends that for every fac­ ulty member the library employs there should be at least three staff members of the library to help that faculty member. Here at Appala­ chian however, for every faculty member there is only one staff member to help them. For Belk Library to come up to ALA standards 22 more staff members would have to be hired. This is impossible right now because of a lack of funding to hire more employees.

"I've only been at ASU for a few weeks, and I have had no prob­ lems finding anything here.

Let us know, 'all Clay at 262-3104 (f Moview Review m The library has received some criticism for the inconvenience caused by its new layout, but are working to improve the situation. Steven Mackay Reporter I have a theory. Hollywood loves "Dances With Wolves." Every year since 1990 (the year 'Wolves" was released), they have been trying to recapture the magi­ cal story of a white man living amongst a tribe of Indi­ ans. The latest copy cat is the dramatic adventure "Last of the Dogmen" (PG). "Dogmen" is such an obvious rip-off of "Wolves," you'd think Kevin Costner would have thrown a hissy fit and demand that writer/direc­ tor Tab Murphy be scalped. Dogmen is also hounded by some dialogue that is so lousy only Murphy's grandmother could like it. Plus, there's the narration (by an unbilled Wilford Brimley) that is so droned and obvious, I began to have horrific flashbacks of history lectures in college. I'm gonna re­ gret that last sentence, I'm STILL in college. So, for the life of me, I can't figure out why "Last of the Dogmen" manages not to be a total howler. This is a small movie that is seriously flawed, but full of heart, spirit and discovery. That is a giant leap over big films that are empty at the center (for instance "First Knight"). Tom Berenger plays a tracker/bounty hunter named Louis who stumbles upon evidence of a lost tribe of Cheyenne warriors known as "Dogmen". Naturally, he wants to find them. He enlists the help of local anthropologist Lilian Sloan (Barbara Hershey) to be the brains of his operation. Together they go deep into the Montana wilderness to find the mysterious tribe. Lilian and Louis are a perfect romantic match: they fight like car horns in New York City fush hour traffic. The basic premise of "Dogmen" is fascinating. Imagine a tribe of Indians living in the Montana wil­ derness, oblivious to the modern world that surrounds them. Murphy captures some of this wonder in many scenes, including one where members of the Indian tribe scoff at the very notion that man could walk on the moon. Beautiful cinematography and the all around feel of a 1950's western-adventure flick boost the level of appeal. The violence is minimal and bloodless, mak­ ing this a good family movie. Murphy never gets to dance with wolves, but this little epic is a nice waltz. You could call it "Dances With Doggies." Grade: B- Most major tire brands.

Sports . Apps plan'Aggravated assauf Stephen Hensley Sports Editor Saturday, the Mountaineer football team will travel down to Greensboro to take on the Aggies of North Carolina A&T. This will be the fifth meeting be­ tween the two schools since 1986. The Apps lead the series 3-1, which includes the 45-0 trouncing the Mountaineers handed the Aggies last season. However, the Aggies are off to a much better start in 1995, winning their first two games against rivals North Carolina Central and Winston-Salem State Quarterback Maseo Bolin is picking up right where he left off last season when he passed for over 1,700 yards in 1994. Head Coach Bill Hayes is embarking on his eighth season at the helm for the Aggies. Hayes has amassed a record of 4831at NC A& T that includes a 1-2 record against the Apps. The one victory the Aggies have against the Apps came in 1993 at Aggie Stadium. North Carolina A&T pounded the Apps 22-10. A key to victory for the Mountaineers this year will be stopping the Aggie offense. In the past, the Aggies ran a Wing-T formation, an offense that not many teams utilized. Now the Aggies run a standard I-formation that is similar to the offense used by most of Appalachian's opponents. "Its something we're used to seeing," remarked Mountaineer linebacker doirlg "II WlU g'Ve US 3 ChanCe 10 d°S°me °fthe thin8s we are used to That should be a scary thought to the Aggies because the App defense is egmmng to show the same intensity that was their trademark in 1994. After a ackluster second half against Wake Forest, the Mountaineers bounced back to shut down Edinboro to just 7 points and 280 total yards. "We are improving like we want to,"added Coakley. "We are getting better week in and week out." On the other side of the ball, the Apps just have to hope things continue the way they have been. In the first two contests of 1995, the Mountaineers have outscored the opposition 44-0. If this trend continues, the Aggies may be in quite a hole by halftime. Quarterback Scott Satterfield will still get the starting nod Saturday to lead the App offense. Satterfield is battling a hip strain, his second injury of the season. However, neither the hip strain nor the injury to his throwing hand has caused him to miss a starting snap this season. The injury bug has hit Appalachian's offensive line as well. Chad Groover continues to recover from a right knee sprain. Shawn Clark is suffering from an ankle sprain but should see action Saturday. However, Tony Bequette's ankle fracture will keep him out indefinitely. "We expect this to be a tough, tough game for us," remarked Appalachian State Head Coach Jerry Moore. "Both teams come into the game 2-0, so both squads want to keep their records perfect. We have to be focused; concentrate on what we have to do to be successful." The game kicks off at 1:30 p.m. The Apps are idle next week but will return home to take on East Tennessee State on Sept. 30 for Family Day. Lady Apps fat n to 0-6 David Willis Assistant Sports Editor j- 1 Appalachian State's women's volleyball team traveled to Blacksburg, Va., this past weekend to compete in the Virginia Tech Tournament, but came up empty as they dropped all three of their matches. In their first match, App's lady spikers faced a tough Northwestern University who took the best of five matchup in just three games, 15-4, 15-13, and 15-11, respectively. Leading the way for the Mountaineers were Sheri Leverette and Erica Bahry who both had six kills. In their second match, the Lady Apps took on the home team, Virginia Tech. The lady spikers faced the same unfortunate fate of their first match, dropping the first three games 15-2, 15-11, and 15-4. The Hokies topped the Mountaineers in virtually every category including kills, digs, and service aces. The final match of the weekend saw the Mountaineers take on the Virginia Cavaliers. The Apps regrouped after the first two matches, but came up short as they killed themselves wfth errors, tallying five more errrors than kills. The Cavaliers won the match in four games 15-9, 8-15, 15-11, and 15-8. Leading the Lady Apps were Stephanie Young, April Sorrells, Erica Bahry, and Kathy Granack. The lady spikers were however, without senior starter Miriam Sealey who was unable to play in any of the matches. Also not able to go the whole way, was senior starter Amy Kolomechuk who saw limited action in the first two matches and completely sat out the third.

Dp7niott)StUS'C ICeS d°Wn dUring the ViCt0ry 0Ver Edinboro Well, it is time once again for Mountaineer golf to swing back into action here at ASU, and Coach Bill Dicus seems to have some tal­ ented and promising squads for the fall sea­ son. The women's team is coming off of one of their most successful years ever, finishing second in the Southern Conference Tourna­ ment at the end of last spring. They hope to continue to ride high into the fall season, with their opening tournament just two days away, beginning on Sept. 16. On the other side, the men's team is com­ ing off of a rather mediocre spring, with their best numeric finish being seventh in the eightteam Southern Conference Tournament. They kick off the season on Oct. 1 at the Campbell Invitational, where experience should help a great deal with nine players returning. The Lady Mountaineer golf team is led out­ standingly by Meridyth Stanley, a sophomore from Ormond Beach, Florida, who was the MVP of last year's squad and carried the best stroke average on the team (83.8). Stanley will be backed up by Meryll McElwain, a jun­ ior from Kernersville, North Carolina, who has been All-Southern Conference the past two years and owned a very respectable stroke average of 84.4. This year's team is a younger team. In fact, four new freshmen will be a part of the club: Erin McArthur, a transfer from the University of Georgia, Kelly Clements from Durham, Brittany Winterton from Peach Tree City, Georgia, and Jennifer Taylor from Pinehurst, all of whom show promising tal­ ent and should perform well. When asked how he feels the women's team will perform this fall, Coach Dicus says, "The outlook is good, especially since we are coming off one of the most successful years for the women's program, and I expect us to lower our stroke average by at least 15 strokes per round. If that indeed does happen, this fall and spring will be very successful for the ASU women's golf team. The men's team returns nine players this Stanley Jokers and the wild card race Darryl Stevens Staff Writer Sports Commentary The current baseball season began with only the slightest of complications, with each team losing 18 scheduled games. But last year's season was done in August, and now it seems as if the 1995 campaign has lasted forever and a day. What makes this year feel even more like an epic is that unofficial canon of baseball: within a month from the All-Star Break, it's usually clear which teams are in serious con­ tention. Cleveland clinched the American League Central from the onset of the NFLs ex­ hibition games. Atlanta could fall flat on their face by now and win the NL East title (as long as they fall forward). And there are the teams with their fates inhand, the teams which have reduced their magic numbers to single digits. Cincinnati, Boston, and California only need to stay healthy and start focusing on October. The only marathon worth paying attention to is happening in the NL West. A division whose teams are separated by only seven games from top to bottom, the West features fledgling Colorado and Los Angeles as they sprint to the finish. This game of King of the Hill has inspired both squads to play A-plus ball in 1995's last weeks, the Rockies and Dodgers winning eight clogged with Rockies, who have four of the and seven of their last 10 games, respectively. top five longballers.

The BOT approved the hire of an architectural firm to look into the feasibility of an on-campus Greek housing complex. According to Dr. Gregory Blimling, vice chancellor of student development, the housing facility will be built with social frater­ nities and sororities in mind. However, if other small, group organizations show an interest, they will be considered on a space-available basis. According to Brad Reid, director of housing, a possible site for the Greek housing is near Greenwood parking lot, across from the newly constructed Appalachian Heights Apart­ ments. A committee made up of faculty, staff and students selected the architectural firm to look into the construction of a Greek housing facility. According to Jim Street, assistant di­ rector of the center for student involvement and leadership, there were no non-Greek, stu­ dent representatives on the committee. According to Reid, Lees, Nichols, and Hepler architectural firm from Charlotte will be looking into the feasibility of building a Greek complex. They will also be using the input from another firm from Norfolk, Va., Hanbury, Evans, Newill, Vlattas. They have done Greek housing projects at Virginia Tech and James Madison University. "We are a long way from having something solid to look at," said Reid. The structure would be funded with a bond issue and repaid with interest through collected housing fees and money from Greek organizations. "I feel that there might be a problem with the Greek organizations being able to fund their portion of the project," said Reid. He estimated the cost of the structure to be $7-9 million. "The price tag is going to be high on anything built in the next few years," he said. According to Blimling, the students living in Greek housing will follow the same alcohol and housing policies as other students in on-campus facilities. "There would be a more controlled partying environment,"said Kellie Floyd, a Rho Chi. "However, I do feel like the location may segregate the Greek community even more." "I know it (Greek housing) would take a lot of pressure off the on-campus hous­ ing situation," said Floyd. Currently, Greek organizations reside on specified floors of Cone and Cannon Residence Halls. According to Street, there are currently 10 Greek floors, approximately 200 rooms. According to Reid, the committee has discussed the possibility of having residence areas that house 20-30 people per fraternity, social rooms, meeting rooms, chapter rooms and food prep areas. These are suggestions that will be considered by the architectural firm in the feasibility study. Assistant News Editor Appalachian Popular Programming Society's showing of "Pulp Fiction" at I.G. Greer attracted 303 students last Friday night, said Megan Woolshlager, films chairperson. Eighty-five students attended Saturday's showing and 94 on Sunday. I.G. Greer will seat approximately 450 people and they have never had to turn anybody away. Woolshlager said she thinks students like the movie for several reasons. She said it is one of those movies people want to see re­ peatedly. "Quentin Tarantino (writer, director) has a lot of draw and everybody has their own favorite part," said Woolshlager. "It's sick humor, but hilarious!" The cost of the A.ERS. movies are one dollar. "We get approximately two-thirds of student fees, said Page Braddham, president of A.RPS. "The admission goes back into what we can do for the students." f""° API""Cti-n,i Cm" f" S»»*" O" ~ ~on *c„d Reporter up," she said. Woolshlager said the only sell - out last year was a Wednesday night Cinema Draft movie entitled "Clockwork Orange." Ten people were turned away. The Wednesday night movies were held in the Pub which holds 220 students. Because of construction at the new Pub, this year, the Cinema Drafts are being held in I.G. Greer, but without the alcohol. The Appalachian Index If the Greek housing project is found to be feasible, Reid esitmated two to three years for completion of the project. According to Jane Helm, vice chan­ cellor for business affairs, the proposed fund­ ing of the project includes the university pro­ viding the land and the students who will live in the facility, from the Greek organizations, paying their on-campus housing fee. Funding of social rooms, meeting rooms and other com­ mon-use rooms would be through fraternities individually funding their portion of the struc­ ture. A.ERS. normally tries not to show the same movies the dollar theaters in town are playing, she said. A.RRS. did not know The Flick, a dollar theater on Howard Street, was going to hold over "Pulp Fiction" for another week. The films council, made up entirely of students, is responsible for choosing the movies to be shown, said Woolshlager. "Ev­ erybody brings in movies they think the stu­ dent body would like. A master list is made and voted on." Woolshlager said anybody can be on the films council. They just have to show up for meetings on Tuesdays at 6 p.m. in the Rhododendren Room. She said the films are picked a se­ mester in advance. They are ordered from ei­ ther Swank or Films Inc., the two main com­ panies that supply most colleges. Other big draws last year included "Higher Learning" and the "Breakfast Club" said Woolshlager. Thirty-five to 45 people was the average number of people attending the weekend showings last year, said Woolshlager. "On a good night we had 90 to 110 people show Tammy Hicks The new John E. Thomas Hall, which will serve to centralize various student sup­ port services, is under construction and is pro­ jected to be completed by early fall 1996. The facility is named for the Appalachian State University chancellor who served the college from 1979 to 1993. The main purpose of the building is to centralize various student support services and to provide one place that students can conduct most of their business. Offices that will have space in the new building include Admissions, Financial Aid, Career Development Center, Residence Life, Registrar, Cashier and a Visitors Center. These relocations will leave spaces available in I.G. Greer, Founders Hall and the Administration Building. A space committee will determine what will fill these empty spaces. The current financial aid building will be torn down. "It's going to be great to have all the student services under one roof," said Mike Stanley, director of student accounts. He also said that they hoped to be moving in Fall 1996. "We want to provide a welcoming atmosphere for students and their families when they first arrive at Appalachain State University. The building will serve as our new entrance and should reflect the university, " said Dr. Blimling, chancellor of student devel­ opment. He also said that with the offices being less cramped for the employees, and more accessible for the students, the frustra­ tion level should be lower for everyone. The structure would be funded with a bond issue and repaid with interest through collected housing fees and money from Greek organizations. I.G.

The benefit sale will take place at the historic Jones House Community Center on King Street. The sale is being sponsored by the Heavenly Mountain Resort, a luxury residential community under construc­ tion near Boone. This resort has two important aspects. It is a profit orga­ nization selling homes, and also a non­ profit organization that supports a large group of meditators. Enloe Willingham, director of community relations for the Heavenly Mountain Resort, says, "This group of people is creating a great atmosphere of har­ mony throughout the Blue Ridge area. The Heavenly Mountain Resort's goal is to generate good will in the com­ munity." Rhea Hebert, Watauga County Li­ brarian, reports that the library needs to raise $500,000 locally to complete and furnish the new facility. The Heav­ enly Mountain Resort is donating $40,000 worth of new, hardbound books to be sold at up to 70 percent off during the Book Fair. All of the proceeds will be donated to the new library fund. If all of the books are bought, the Library Building Fund will receive $27,000 in cash. Herbert says, "This Book Fair will be an excellent op­ portunity for everyone in Watauga County to help the new library by do­ ing their Christmas book shopping a little early." There will be a wide selection of current books to choose from includ­ ing children's books, national bestsellers, cookbooks, gardening books, educational books and many other choices for everyone's personal taste. According to David Kaplan, Presi­ dent of Heavenly Mountain Resort, "This contribution demonstrates our commitment to Watauga County and expresses our appreciation for the kind of reception we have received from the community." This organization stresses the importance of books and the library to the students and the overall relationship to the entire com­ munity. "A library is fundamental to any area that is important to the commu­ nity," adds Willingham. This local ben­ efit is a "win-win situation," says Brian Crutchfield, manager of economic and community development at Blue Ridge Electric and a member of the fund-rais­ ing committee for the new library. The local community will get excellent deals on great books, and all of the funds raised will go to support the new library.

That's what we wilt do." , D. , - Richard Ntxon ditorials Fairness. Accuracy and Public Service since 1936 Rape discussion often taboo Our opinion... Books cost students a pretty penny Picture this. It's the beginning of the semester, and as you go to each new class, you are handed a syllabus. The syllabus includes what text book you will be using as well as information pertaining to reading assignments, due dates of papers and dates of quizes and exams. It also gives a list of other read­ ing assignments for which you will need to purchase paperback books. Often, after going to each class ind collecting this list, you find that your bill for books comparable to that which you have already paid fees. Quite often, professors assign nine or 10 books to buy in addition to the rental text book which is already provided. Some of these paperbacks only cost $5 or $6. However, others can run as high as $16 or even $20. This can get rather expensive. Even t only $5 per book, if a professor assigns five extra looks, that is already $25. That is only one class, oppose you are in a major in which many of your irofessors are assigning extra books. At four or five Iclasses, those extra $25 in books can certainly start to add up. B Why do professors do this? Presumably, many I think only about their class. They do not stop to |:hink that professors in other classes may also be .ssigning several books to be bought. They also may e thinking that it does not really matter how much oney is spent on books, because Mommy and Daddy re paying for them, anyhow. In some instances, this nay be the case. But not all mommies and daddies, fcfter paying that lovely tuition bill, can afford to fork put another $100 or $200 to buy extra books. And j or those students who are paying their own way, Jhis money may be tapping into more than their beer nd. There are expenditures such as rent and food. Students realize that reading is an important part f any learning process. We are not bemoaning that act. We simply ask professors to think before going ild when assigning books to buy. There is no point in making students fork out oney every year to buy a brand new edition of a ook when only a comma has been changed on page 46, paragraph three. Therefore, we offer the folwing suggestions to professors to help curb those ook-buying urges. If a professor assigns a book to buy, please use he entire book. Anthologies are great when used as hey are meant to be - as collections. But spending 120 or $30 on a book when only two stories are read s ridiculous. To the book store, we suggest instituting a bet:er buy-back system. If students bought books at the >eginning of the semester knowing they were going o get a good return on their investment, they would Ilot be so hasty to complaing about the expense, and | nay even take better care of the books. Finally, we suggest to professors that they utilize I he textbooks which are available to them. We have o rent them anyway. You may as well make good ise of them.

Rape victims' ages Older than 29 Not sure/ Refused/Ommitted /\ 6.1% Beth Tomlinson Guest Columnist Okay, so last Tuesday was the Sixth Annual Walk for Awareness. I thought, "Hey I'm a senior now. Isn't it about time that I go?" I must admit to you that I have never been to the Walk for Awareness and I'm not sure that I could go again. It wasn't that the walk was a bad thing. I thought it was really good for those people who had been assaulted to see the support that the university and community have for them. I couldn't go again though, because it brought back many feelings that I wasn't ready to deal with or I guess, didn't want to deal with. And that was what I was afraid of. When I first got there and the people were handing out the song sheets I tried to pretend that I was just there in support of Jeni Gray and the many individuals who also have been abused. It was soon apparent to me, though, that I would not be able to stand there and let what was going on around me not affect me. You see, over 10 years ago, I was sexually molested by a neighbor. I have been to counseling and have told my story to my friends. I even thought that I could be a support for anyone who looked like rhev needed it. I was wrong. For those of you who have never been raped or abused, let me share something with you. It doesn't go away. Many times people have reminded me that what happened is "in the past" and I should "try to forget it." This is a good sentiment, but it is nearly impossible. Abuse affects every­ one in different ways. Some people become more trust­ ing, such as Leigh Cooper, who spoke at the Walk for Aware­ ness. Others, like myself, draw into a shell and hide out whenever they feel like they are in danger. I really think that it depends on when you get help and how supportive the people around you are. I didn't get help for what happened to me for over two years.

Now imagine that the person who molested you was a person that you had to see every day and then, when it happens to someone else, realizing that you could have stopped it if you had only spoken up when it hap­ pened. Now I know that it wasn't my fault that the other per­ son was attacked, but I could have helped to make sure people knew what had happened. Since my attack, I al­ most wish that rape was a more open issue. I think then the people who commit these crimes would at least think twice before doing something so cruel. I also think that the women and men whr> vet raned would ha\e a better chance of "learning" from their experiences. It's like they say in education classes - there's learning and then there is learning for a lifetime. 1 learned not to trust people be­ cause I wasn't helped fast enough. I didn't help myself by standing up and speaking out about what happened to me. This is my learning for a lifetime. I won't be able to forget and neither will all the women who are raped every minute of the day in the United States, nor the one out of seven boys who are sexually abused by the age of 18. It's scary isn't it? Do you know what's even more frightening? The fact that I could be your sister, your brother, your mother, or your father. I could be your child. It's really scary.... Are witch hunts a thing of the past? • The case of Timothy McVeigh and Terry Nichols proves they are not. John Lane Managing Editor On April 19 of this year, most Americans' worst night­ mare came true in Oklahoma City. The bombing of the Alfred R Murrah Federal building claimed 168 lives of adults and children, rich and poor alike. The hunt for the demon(s) who could be responsible for an act such as this was on instantaneously. In the 17th century, in Salem, Mass., great feelings of anger, grief, and revenge led people to accuse their neigh­ bors of committing witchcraft. At the first sign of trouble (crops destroyed by fire, etc.) a scapegoat would be quickly found and put on trial with, at best, sketchy evidence against them of the slightest wrongdoing (stealing a chicken,). Are these witch hunts really a thing of the past? Witch hunts used to begin as widespread scares and end with some unfortunate soul being bound and thrown into a river to see if they would float. Of course, being bound inhibited the ability to swim, and the thrashing around that this type of trauma would cause wouldn't give them much of a chance to float. They were, in a way, pronounced guilty before they were given the chance to prove their innocence. Timothy McVeigh and Terry Nichols seem to be in a similar situa­ tion. A widespread scare came to its fruition with them. And before they were even collected, still labeled John Doe one and two, they were pro­ nounced guilty by the leader of us all, Bill Clinton, and backed by his head judge, Janet Reno. Their sentence was to be "swift and se­ vere." The "death pen­ alty" was called for by name. Though the hunt is now half way over, all that is left since the "guilty" parties have been ratted out, is the trial. But isn't that really The Alfred P. Murrah Federal Building.

Ambitious politicians trying to seize healthcare and raise taxes have used the word • "crisis" until the word no longer has effect. But what's happening in urban America today is a true crisis. Our big cities and the citizens who live in them deal with a misery that a poet couldn't describe. For 30 years we've been judging our compassion by how much money we throw at the problem even while it exacerbated it. Dynamic changes need to be made, and in Wisconsin something very exciting is happening. It's called school choice or "the voucher system." The Republican governor is giv­ ing poor parents vouchers with money that would normally go to the public schools, so they, like the rich, can send their children to a private school. Sounds like something liberals and conservatives could agree on, right? Sadly that is not the case. The state Supreme Court has stopped the program because of a suit filed by, who else but the plunderers of the poor, the ACLU. (They must not get enough kicks releasing criminals into poor peoples' neighborhoods; they have to also make sure poor kids have no chance of getting an education). The arguments against vouchers are spurious at best and almost ended the pro­ gram. Luckily, big business in Milwaukee has contributed over a million dollars to keep those poor children out of the public schools until the matter is settled in court. This case will have a huge effect on the future of education in America and is one of the last best hopes for the children of our inner cities. The Milwaukee Public Schools currendy receive $6,500 per student per year.

He and I always played in his backyard. I must have gone over there a hundred times, but I only really remember one specific afternoon. Tommy was a very scientifically minded boy. He didn't love Star Wars because he thought it was cool; he loved it because he thought it was possible. The one afternoon 1 remember we spent sitting in his driveway, pulling the legs off "daddy long leg" spiders and looking at their bodies under a magnifying glass. When 1 think back to that now, I am filled with guilt. Even though my gut instinct is to chalk up that day to child­ hood curiosity, I am still disappointed that 1 would have enjoyed such a cruel activity. The really weird part is, I * 'late spiders. I'm the first person to swat them when they come near me. For some reason, it seems okay to kill them -when they scare me, but not okay to have pulled their legs off to see what would happen. 1 was reminded of that afternoon as I sat in my first biology lab session. It wasn't until I looked around and saw the cabinets in that lab that I realized once again, I was going to be required to dissect. In the lab for Biology 1101, you have to dissect a frog. Dissection strikes me as a useless procedure. With all the technology we have, isn't there a better way to teach students how an organism's body works? I'm sure that there are videos of dissections lying around somewhere which we could watch and take notes on rather than per­ forming them ourselves. Why waste the lives of all those frogs when the lab assistant could either show us a video or just do one herself and let us watch? It just seems so wasteful for the university to keep buying the animals and the equipment when it isn't really necessary. I am an English major. Like the majority of students who take Biology 1101, it is just another required course for me. I seriously doubt that knowledge of a frog's in­ nards is going to be useful to me in my journalism career. When are all the business, music, and other non-scientific major students going to need to know how to use a scalpel in their future? I know that I could've taken astronomy, geology, chem­ istry, or physics, but it seems to me that Biology is going to be much more useful. It is, after all, the study of living things. I couldn't care less about rocks, the formula for sugar, or how fast a brick falls from a four stoiy building. Astronomy has too much math for me to go near it. Unless I suddenly turn into McGuyver, those sciences are just not dictates which animals are more precious to us than oth­ up my alley. Biology is the logical course for me to take to ers?

James "Coop" Cooper, a senior geology student from Charlotte, lived it. Cooper was the only Appalachian student to attend the Juneau Ice Field Research Pro­ gram. Some students may wonder why Coo­ per would go through such an ordeal during his vacation. The answer is Cooper is a ge­ ologist, and geologists get to do cool things. No pun intended. The seven-week expedition began in Ju­ neau, Alaska, where 44 students came to­ gether from around the United States and Canada to learn geological mapping and glaciology. Half the students were female and approximately half were high school students.

If these ques­ tions sound familiar, then tutoring may be the answer. As a part of the Learning Assistance Program (LAP), student-to-student tutor­ ing is offered in dozens of courses, as well as any other course that has requests from three enrolled students. Tutoring is free, confidential, and works on an ap­ pointment basis. The program is one of the largest in the southeast, and Tutor Coordi­ nator Mary Quinn says, "We work with an av­ erage of 1500 students a semester and employ over 100, so it is a positive service for all." The program is staffed by students who have made A's and B's in the classes they tutor and have gotten recommendations from their professors.

For most, the thought of group therapy brings to mind a room full of people pressuring others to reveal painful or shameful secrets. Another common mis­ conception about group therapy is that once the group pressures you into revealing something personal or painful, they will overwhelm you with expressions of love that you don't necessaril;' need or want. This is one of the myths about group therapy that Dr. Tom Stanger of the Counseling Center would like to dispel. Stanger says, "group therapy is gener­ ally more beneficial than individual therapy," because in group therapy you gain the impartial perspective of others. The groups at the Counseling Center have between six and eight members each, who meet with one or two trained counselors. Many of these counsek had specialized training and experience with gi terventions, A group leader first meets with pi members for an interview to determine if the g right for them, or whether individual therapy be more helpful.

Following a mild response, he probably did feel a little lost in time. On the following song, entitled "Deck of Cards," Droll continued to play like a man pos­ sessed. Though he lit­ erally made mouths drop wide open by playing his instrument of choice behind his head, the audience re­ alized that this was no one man band. Intro­ duced to the crowd as Pete, the keyboard player wowed Legends with a wicked solo ("Smash it, Pete! Smash it!"). After filling the next couple of songs with just as much spon­ taneity and bluestinged rock, Gibb asked the audience once again, "How are you all feeling now?" This time his inquiry set the room ablaze with screams. idD U roll, lead singer, guitarist and name- sake of the band that entertained students Friday night, shows With his hair no ff his creative guitar work to a receptive crowd.

"We've heard a lot of requests for this one tonight, so we're gonna' give it a try," said a humble Droll. Looking around the room at the hang­ ing portraits of legends like Paul McCartney, Mick Jagger, and David Bowie (isn't there a residence hall named after him?), it was hard not to notice that the smiles on these famous painted faces seemed just a little wider as The Gibb Droll Band paid tribute to a rock and roll god with his rendition of "Little Wing." From start to finish Droll sang the lyrics like he was recit­ ing his favorite poem. After 10 min­ utes of swaying, air guitaring, and singing along, the audience was on cloud 10. Sophomore Jim Hazen ex­ plained, "Missing 'Pulp Fiction' turned out to be a good thing. I mean, Gibb Droll is like a royale with extra cheese." Of all the reviews though, perhaps freshman Paul Hoover put it best when he said of the show, "It was as if I paid four dollars to see Jimi Hendrix, Eddie VanHalen and Stevie Ray Vaughn play the same guitar un­ der one name: Gibb Droll."

Worthy of APPIause vid Willis istant Sports Editor ppalachian State's football team opened ason at Kidd Brewer Stadium by spankDivision II Edinboro (Pa.) 44-7. :oming into the game, ASU head football h said, "We have to become more consisfrom our Wake Forest game... we have to continue to focus and concentrate on the task at hand, and keep improving in every phase of the game. This is our home opener, on a new playing surface, Hall of Fame Day, a night game in Kidd Brewer Stadium, all those things con­ tribute to making this a special game." It was a special game and it did not take the Apps long to get used to the new Astroturf. On their second possession of the game they drove 50 yards in seven plays for their first score of the game. Keyed by an 18-yard recep­ tion by Otis Smith on 3rd and 10, quarterback Scott Satterfield rolled to his right for the fi­ nal eight yards and the touchdown. The Moun­ taineers took the lead 7-0. Edinboro came right back. Fighting Scot Gilbert Grantlin gave his team excellent field position with a 30-yard kickoff return. On the very next play, Grantlin again got his hands on the ball for a 37-yard grab, moving the ball into Mountaineer territory for the first time. After a 21-yard run by Gerald Thompson and an offsides call against the Apps, the Scots had second and goal at the four, but a huge sack by App's Jamie Coleman and an intentional grounding call forced Edinboro to attempt a 40-yard field goal, which was just wide. Appalachian took over at its own 18 and moved the ball well again. Smith came up with his second catch of the night for 26 yards and Aldwin Lance rumbled for 28 more yards on three carries. The Mountaineers were poised to score their second touchdown of the night, but Satterfield missed receivers on con­ secutive downs, and ASU had to settle for a 27-yard Jay Sutton field goal and a 10-0 lead. Both teams traded possessions twice before ASU was able to mount another drive. Jamie Coleman gave the Apps good field position with a 21-yard punt return and the Mountain­ eers were able to come away with a 42-yard Sutton field goal, thanks to the Fighting Scot defense that gave Sutton an extra attempt on an offsides call. The Apps increased their lead to 13-0. Edinboro took over at its own 35 after the kickoff sailed out of bounds. Junior tailback Tony Brinson single-handedly moved the ball into ASU territory, but a fourth down pass fell short and the Mountaineers regained posses­ sion. With 5:29 left in the half, sopho­ more Gerard Hardy replaced a banged up Scott Satterfield at the helm for the Moun­ taineers and led the Apps 60 yards in^,' eight plays fo ri wmmm s ASU's second TD of the game. Four Mountaineers carried the ball on the drive, including Damon Scott who gained 31 yards on four touches and the final 11 for the score. The Apps were starting to run away with it, now leading 20-0 with 1:39 to play in the half. Edinboro got another good return by Grantlin, but time ran out as the Fighting Scots moved the ball into ASU territory. Led by Joe DiBernardo and Dexter Coakley, the Mountaineer defense shut down its oppo­ nent for the second straight week, not allow­ ing any points in the first half. The intermission did some good for Edinboro, as the Fighting Scots took the open­ ing drive and went 90 yards on nine plays for their first score of the game. Led by Grantlin, who gained 62 yards on three catches, includ­ ing a 41-yard bomb for the touchdown. The Scots reduced the score to 20-7, but that would be all as the Mountaineer defense would shut down Edinboro for the remainder of the game. Not wanting to be outdone, the Apps also came out moving the ball, with Hardy still in at quarterback. The Mountaineers moved the ball 53 yards in nine plays for a 29-yard Sutton field goal, his third of the night. App increased its lead to 23-7. The Mountaineers were not done as they took the fintil drive of the third quarter 56 yards on five plays, including a 43-yard scoring run by Hardy who personally juked all 11 defen­ sive players along the way. Three possessions later, the Mountaineers would drive again, this time 59 yards on 4 plays. Carlos Horton would score from two yards out after a combined run of 34 yards by Hardy and Horton on a downfield pitch. The Apps lead increased to 37-7 with 9:39 left in the game. Un the next drive, Edinboro drove the length of the field, but backup safety Jon Duncan intercepted the ball and ran 75 yards to the Scots' 21. The Apps, now led by third string QB Bake Baker and the running of Willie McLain, slammed the book on Edinboro with the final TD of the night. The Apps led 44-7 and would hold that lead as time ran out. The Mountaineer offense combined for 315 yards on the ground, led by Gerard Hardy who had eight carries for 101 yards. Also leading the App offense was return man Jamie Coleman who gave the offense good field po­ sition all night. The Mountaineer defense was led by Joe DiBernardo, Dexter Coakley, and Matt Stevens, who had two interceptions. The Apps will travel to Greensboro next Saturday to take on North Carolina A&T at 1:30.

The Apps and the Buccaneers battled for a scoreless tie, until Mountaineer Kevin Tbrner broke the tie on a direct kick with 44:30 gone in the half. The Apps held the 1-0 lead at the intermission. The Mountaineers served up nine shots on goal in the first half while holding the Bucca­ neers to just six. App goalie Jason Hockstra had three saves in the half. The second half was much the same as the first as ASU held its 1-0 lead until Mountain­ eer Mike Moody scored from straight on with 84:00 gone in the match. App held the 2-0 lead for the remainder of the game. The Mountaineers increased their shots on goal to 12 in the second, outshooting the Buc­ caneers by five. Hockstra had five saves for the Apps in the second for a total of eight for the game. The real excitement in the match came when the Charleston Southern coach was ejected with 75:00 gone in the game.

Ithe newest rivalry in sports, the Tecent standoff between two Ititors that comes close to ap­ proaching the status of past battles. Ranked Nos. 1 and 2 respectively (al­ though this could change soon), Agassi and Sampras are undoubtedly the class of professional tennis. At their best, the pair of them tower over the rest of the field; they are be­ yond merely dominant. Only Agassi can return a serve from Pete Sampras with greater than average success. Only Sampras is crafty enough to shoot forehands down the baseline which Agassi, probably one of the quickest players in the game, can't reach. When we have time to really look back at Sunday's U.S. Open Men's Fi­ nals, the match may take on the lumi­ nance of legend. Sampras used the four-set victory to earn himself a spot alongside John McEnroe, Bill Tilden and Fred Perry as the only players ever to win three Open and three Wimbledon championships during their careers. He seems to have accomplished this so quietly, did Sampras. He beats opponents with blurring forehands, the expression on his face seldom re­ vealing much, as he leaves the talking to others. Not many athletes gain en­ dorsements because of their shy de­ meanor (see his Pizza Hut stuffed crust spots with McEnroe, where the looselipped Mac teaches Pete the art of bit. .. uh, bellyaching). But Agassi and Sampras aren't the only members of the world of tennis who cast such large shadows over the competition. Steffi Graf, winner of the Women's Open bracket, has been so strong over the last handful of years that her name may as well be carved into the trophies at the start of most tourneys. Monica Seles is to Graf as Andre Agassi is to Sampras. Seles' return af­ ter being stabbed in the back almost three years ago gathered a lot of at­ tention. But consider that her loss to Graf on Saturday was her first since returning. Michael Jordan took a few weeks to get on track after his base­ ball adventure. Mike Tyson . . . well, we'll have to wait and see. Buster Mathis, Jr. probably won't be the one who settles the issue, either. But Seles walked right onto the court and hasn't missed a step. At 21 years of age, her potential is scary. can only get better as the year rolls along. The game shouldn't be a shoot­ out: the Steelers' tight defense is now established, and the Dolphins have allowed just 17 points in two games so far. New England quarterback Drew Bledsoe, the man who puts more air under the football than a punter; faces Steve Young and the Deion-less FortyNiners. After suffering a blow-out at the hands of Miami Sunday, the Pats travel to 3M (nee' Candlestick) Park for a game which might produce 600 combined passing yards. Young's 331yard effort against Atlanta may have created an appetite for destruction. STRONG POINTS Only two weeks into the NFL sea­ son, and already we have the league's titans clashing.

The store will be built in Southgate and Watauga Village Centers off Blowing Rock Road. However, a grand opening date has not been set. According to an article written by Sandy Wall published in the Watauga Demo­ crat in early August of this year, Wal-Mart offi­ cials announced they would be building a store in the new retail building optioned by a Davidson, NC-based developement company named Tricor. Boone town officials want to clear up some problems seen in the plans before they are sent to the planning commission for ap­ proval. As a result, the plans will not be ready for discussion at the Boone Board of Adjust­ ment meeting on Sept. 7. Stacey Webb, spokesperson for WalMart Stores Inc., says that the store is to be built in the Watauga Village Shopping Center, and although she cannot give a definite date, she says it will be built as soon as possible. Regarding student employment, Webb said, "Wal-Mart generally employs 70 percent lull time and 30 percent part-time workers. Students make up a great deal of associates in Wal-Mart stores." The new Wal-Mart will be the main competitor of the K-Mart store located on Blow­ ing Rock Road. Students are excited about a new, low-priced department store. Quality of merchandise, prices, and policies regarding returns are matters that concern many stu­ dents."Wal-Mart's prices are more reason­ able," said Richard Davenport, sophomore. Sally Gunter, junior, said, "Wal-Mart's quality is better overall than K-Mart's and I have been pleased with Wal-Mart's acceptance of returned merchandise. I once bought a cam­ era there and returned it without my receipt. No questions were asked." At Wal-Mart, general returns can be made without a receipt. K-Mart requires a re­ ceipt to accompany all merchandise, with some exceptions. The new store will be 125,000 square feet and will contain 36 general departments. The departments include aparal and accesso­ ries, jewelry, lawn and garden supplies, beauty supplies, and electronics, among others. Although the Student Government Association is still under construction, it is slowly beginning to take shape. To date there is not a Senate, but the elections will be held between Septem­ ber 12-13. This is an open election, meaning anyone is welcome to nominate or be nomimated. The first meeting will be held on Sept. 19. This will also be a training seminar for the new senators. The meeting will be held in the Linville Falls Room in Plemmons Student Union and no final time has been set. This year's SGA's executive and leg­ islative cabinets are composed of 14 members. The executive cabinet is composed of Darby Weaver, president of SGA; Michael Harkins, chief of staff; Paul Burleson, treasurer; Jen­ nifer Hardison, secretary; Tiffany Schlerf, as­ sistant secretary; Misty Rumbley, public af­ fairs; and Jason Basinger, Mountaineer Escort. The position of State Affairs is still open and applications are still being accepted. The legislative cabinet is composed of Robyn Martin, vice president of SGA; Felicia Fluid, student affairs; Edmundo Echeverria, academic affairs; Dan Norris, ex­ ternal affairs; David Ponder, rules chairper­ son; and Peyton King, assistant rule. Weaver and Martin would like to have an open door policy with the students at Appalachian. They would prefer that stu­ dents come by during regular office hours. "We are very optimistic that we will be able to perform all of our platform goals," said Vice President Martin. One of the platform issues was fi­ nances for the library to be Tenovated and become more user friendly. They also hope to fix the parking problem and promote the construction of the Boone Loop, a six mile bicycle and pedestrian path around Boone. They also hope to expand the indoor recy­ cling program to all of the residence halls. ackey Field relocates to Stadium • Ponds, park to replace the Lackey baseball field on Rivers Street. Allison Pennel Assistant News Editor Jc/rey Field will soon be a park and pond, while the baseball field will be moved to upper stadium (Photo bv Iane Richardson) Lackey Baseball Field will be relo­ cated to the upper stadium area (practice field) and be replaced with several ponds. Baseball Coach James Morris said he has been at Appalachian for 22 years and the field has flooded many times. The flooding has prevented games from being played, said Morris. "I'm happy we're moving, except for attendance," said Morris. "Attendance is the only negative." Morris said having the field on Riv­ ers Street was convenient for people walking or driving by. Many would sit and watch the game, said Morris. The town of Boone is responsible for enforcing the Federal Emergency Manage­ ment Agency's regulations for flood areas, said Jane Helm, vice chancellor of business affairs. "Since the new steam plant has to go in that area, we have to fix that area by way of opening up the creeks that run under­ neath the field," said A1 Rapp, director of sys­ tems and special projects. "It's like a domino effect." Rapp also said the ponds will be formed because of the effect the steam plant will have. "We're putting things back the way Mother Nature intended them to be," said Rapp. He also said they would be putting back the natural mountain appearance. "Reworking the creeks should ben­ efit the town," said Rapp. He said they hope it will help control flooding. The ponds will be encircled with a rock weir that will serve as a dike to catch any overflowing water. Helm said the Appalachian Convo­ cation Center, which will be located next to the ponds, will look as natural as possible. She said they were planning to have as much grassy space around that area as they can. Helm also said this project should begin before any work with the ACC gets started. Helm said Appalachian will bid for construction firms to work on the project, but that process has not started yet. Index The Office Hours: Monday- Friday 8-5 Page 4... News.

The 610 parking spaces designated to students directly be­ hind the Broyhill Inn have been oversold. University police are try­ ing to correct this problem by reas­ signing parking spaces to both Wil­ liams and Horn-in-the-West park­ ing lots. "South parking lot is our largest problem with overcrowding and we hope to rectify the situa­ tion in the next week," said Cap­ tain Stephen Perry, traffic supervi­ sor. Solutions to the overcrowding are being found by officers who are patrolling and surveying each lots' availability. Approximately 100 spaces are vacant in Horn-in-the-West and Williams parking lots. The reassign­ ment of new parking spaces is given to commuters and residents first or to those who fill out a special re­ quest. "We are trying to be as helpful as we can, because the over­ crowding is our responsibility," Perry said. According to the Uni­ versity police, Appalachian's park­ ing is adequate. A new parking lot is be­ ing curbed on River Street to re­ place the old one torn down dur­ ing construction. The new River Street parking lot is to be fully op­ erational in a few weeks. .

This is the first time the center has offered an internship to a doctoral student. "Our primary job is to train her in a clinical ap­ plied methodology," said Dr. Dan Jones, the center's director of train­ ing. "This will be synthesizing of what she has learned in her doc­ toral program." Copley will work 40 hours a week at the center. "I hope to gain a firm foundation on the de­ velopment processes this age group goes through and to have opportu­ nities for group work," said Copley. Dougherty Statue Will Be Dedicated Sept. 9 The six-foot bronze statue of Appalachian State University's cofounder and first president, B. B. Dougherty, will be dedicated dur­ ing the Class of 1990 reunion on Sept. 9. The ceremony begins at 4:30 p.m. on Founders Piaza, lo­ cated next to Sanford Hall. The statue, designed and sculpted by art professor Sherry Edwards, was commissioned by the Class of 1990 and given to the uni­ versity Members of the senior class contributed $30,325 to fund the project and establish the Carol J.

As of July 1, students must take the PreProfessional Skills Test instead of the National Teacher Examination. According to Susie L. Greene, director of testing, the PPST has been available for Appalachian students to take for the past several years, how­ ever, it was considered an option to the NTE. Now it is not an option, it is a requirement. "It is really not a test that you can study for before the examination," said Becky Roark, administrative as­ sistant for teacher certification. "How­ ever, you can be prepared for the for­ mat." If you Every year, about 500 stu­ dents at Appalachian apply to the Col­ lege of Education. Study guides for the PPST are available at the College of Education to help students become familiar with the format of the test. Additional help can also be ordered when registering for the PPST. The PPST can be taken through the Sylvan Learning Center via computer. This option is not avail­ able at Appalachian. It is, however, administered in Asheville, Charlotte, Greenville, Greensboro, and Raleigh. An appointment is needed to take the test at one of these locations. An advantage of the com­ puter test is that scores are immedi­ ately available for the reading and math sections. The writing section is sent off to be scored. Scores are sent to specified universities upon request. According to Roark, anyone who failed the NTE must now take the PPST to be admitted into The College of Education.

Move it or lose it David Kershner Columnist If you have ever tried to park in one of the 20 minute parking spaces behind the post office to go check your mail, you have probably faced the prob­ lem of having to risk life and limb - not to mention getting a parking ticket - to park in the middle of the lot. Not in a designated parking space, mind you. Just in the middle of the lot behind all the other people who couldn't find a parking spot. Well it's that time of year when new and old students alike, with all their new-found freedom, can express them­ selves in various ways. Some choose to become environ­ mentalists while some choose to become hikers, bikers and mountain climbers. Some, on the other hand, choose to take their new freedom of choice and "rush" for a frater­ nity or sorority that they feel they want to be a part of. I am not in a fraternity but I do have friends in both fraternities and sororities all up and down the east coast. In my experiences with these "social butterflies" I have yet to have a bad time. I have found in my travels to see these friends, that they are all fun-loving people that choose to express their new freedoms in this particular way. I'd have to be a blind man not to see the negative entombed in the Due to the fact that these spaces are so centrally located and because people don't have to have a park­ ing sticker to park in these 20 minute spaces, many students use them to the point of abuse. If you don't want to be a With the cost of a parking space on campus hav­ ing heen raised $75 in the last 10 years, many stu­ dents may feel that there is no need to purchase a parking space when they can simply park in a 20 minute space and go to their 50 minute class. When students are running late to a class, they would rather park for an hour or two in the 20 minute spaces than have to park in their designated lot and run the risk of being late getting to class. But with only a limited number of spaces on campus, these need to be treated as they are designated - as 20 minute spaces. Now that the lot behind the post office has been converted into all faculty and staff parking, the prob­ lem seems to be getting worse. The university has provided more 20 minute parking spaces in front of the post office to make up for the ones lost in the conversion. However, just because the lot has moved to the front of the building does not mean the problem has been corrected. The 20 minute spaces in this lot are for people who simply want to run in to the post office and check their mail or make a visit to the in­ firmary (not that there has ever been a time when a student has been able to visit the infirmary in 20 minutes, but that is an entirely different editorial). Possibly, the university could look into lots where meters monitor parking time, or sde about the feasi­ bility of installing pay-by-the-hour lots. In pay-bythe-hour lots, the first 20 minutes could be free. This wpuld relieve the endless hours that the orangevested parking monitors would be forced to patrol for 20 minute space abusers. Certainly it would be nice to make their jobs a little easier. member of these particular organizations, then don't rush. paint of the tunnels around campus. I realize that the Greek system is more popular in some schools than in others. On the other hand I have never seen a social group more brutally bashed than at Appala­ chian. I have asked around campus "Why is it that you don't like Greeks?" The student responses were all pretty much the same. "I don't know why. I just hate them." Some chose to expand on that statement by saying that "fraternities and sororities are only for rich upper-class snobs!" Well I took it just a little bit further and checked with the fraternities and sororities, and most were not from the higher socio-economic echelons of our society. I'd say that most of the charter members at this university are from middle class background. Some upper and some lower, but middle class just the same. When asked "Why did you chose to join?" their re­ sponses were extraordinary. They all essentially said that they wanted to be part of an organization at school where they could meet people that they were more compatible with. Also that they wanted to have fun and build the everlasting friend­ ships that stand up to time. So far, I have found this to be true. I spent the summer with my girlfriend visiting her sorority sisters and go­ ing to see some of them get married. Each time I met them they were happy to see me and I found them to be very giving and fun-loving people. They were person­ able and easy going and a refreshing joy to be around. There are some things I would like to change about my summer but the week­ ends I spent with them I wouldn't. In fact I wouldn't trade those memories for anything. I've had a lot of fun in my life but I have never had so much fun crammed into a series of weekends in my life. It was like i had guiit to school I IIUVJ gone IU otnuui with them. That was how 1 their memories with me freely and I enjoyed each and every story they told about the things they did while they were in school. If you don't want to be a member of these particular organizations, then don't "rush." It is as simple as that. If you want to, then check into each one and see which one suits you best. If you have friends that maybe want to rush, don't discourage them or badger them or criticize them for their choice. College is all about free expression. Espe­ cially up here at Appalachian.

This, fearfully, may lead to more abuse of the 20 minute spaces' since they will still be the closest things to many stu­ dents classes. Hopefully, we will see some changes before we must look for a parking space to park in while we drop our grandchildren off for the semes­ ter. The next time you must run into the post office or the student union and park in one of the 20 minute spaces, do your best to observe the time limit.

If you don't smoke, you ave a problem when some­ body else is smoking near you, on the same plane as you, in the same building as you, or on the same street corner as you. If you are a smoker, you have a problem with nonsmokers who are constantly complaining about your smok­ ing, paying high taxes in order to smoke, and the fact that there is a push to outlaw smoking. Well I am a non-smoker and I only have one problem with it. No, it's not because it causes lung cancer, birth defects, emphysema, or the social stigmatisms of yellow teeth, bad breath, or smoke-filled clothing. No, it isn't even the spector of second-hand smoke. What I hate the most about smoking is that it takes up too much time. Think about it. My wife smokes, so I see it first hand. Before she can do anything in the morn­ ing she smokes a cigarette. You're probably thinking that this takes only a few minutes. For argument's sake, let's say five minutes. The average smoker smokes a pack a day. This is 20 cigarettes. Five minutes, twenty times a day is 100 minutes. Granted, some of these cigarettes were smoked while doing something else. So we will say that about half were smoked while doing other things, like driving to and from work, or while reading a book or watch­ ing television. This leaves about 50 minutes per day wasted just on smoking cigarettes. That's just the tip of the filter though. What about the time that is wasted throughout the day getting a cigarette? I can't count the times I've heard my wife say, "Have you seen my cigarettes?" or "Hold on, I think I forgot my ciga­ rettes." or "Wait just a minute, I've got to go get my ciga­ rettes." Let's say 15 minutes a day is wasted in those situ­ ations. Also, what about the time spent going to the store specifically for cigarettes? I have seen it all to often. My wife will be getting ready for an evening at home, She's sitting on the couch, watch­ ing television or reading a book. She reaches for her cigarettes and notices that there is only one left. She needs to go to the store. Of course, she can't just get up and go to the store. She needs to get ready. The clothes she has on are suitable for laying on the couch, but in no way are they suitable for public scrutiny. So she finds something elso to wear, she puts on her shoes, and she heads for the store. Half an hour later, she is back on the couch, wearing her comfortable clothes with a full pack of cigarettes. Having to go to the store for cigarettes occasionally cuts in on my time directly. Nearly every nigl count on a call from my wife asking me to sto for a pack of cigarettes. It's a running joke ai Cigarette breaks are another thing. It that smokers are constantly taking breaks. T the break room or outside and smoke their cij out anybody in management bothering them, gum, but if I were caught in the breakroom d else but chewing gum management might t wasting their time.

Blacks were expected to learn early where this line lay and never forget it." Sound familiar? Mr. Nolte, let's have a little his­ tory lesson. African-Americans may no longer be legally whipped. They do not work on plantations. And more whites are currently on welfare than blacks. But if you and others continue to espouse such beliefs, whether publicly or in private, they and the rest of the United States may as well be in chattels for all eternity. Your comments demonstrated lack of thought, were denigrating, distasteful, and generally rude. But sadly, and most importantly, they pro­ claim your ignorance. The last thing one should be in college, where the most opportunity lies to educate one­ self, is ismoiant. Sadly, Mr. Nolte, I, and many others across this campus, see you as just that. Todd Finch ASU17852 To the Editor: John Nolte made quite a bold statement in last Tuesdays Appala­ chian in professing to understand the inner workings and motivations of the entire female species: "Don't let feminists fool you- Faulkner epito­ mizes today's feminism. Only inter­ ested in sticking her finger in the eye of the male establishment. When it was time to put up, she passed out." To let you in on a secret, all self-re­ specting women who consider them­ selves on equal standing with men ( not necessarily greater) are feminists. Whether they are vocal on issues in­ volving women's rights (unfair estab­ lishments or not) they are feminists. Based on this, I would be inclined to say that the vast majority of women in the United States are, in fact, femi­ nists. It seems to me that you are us­ ing one person's failed struggle to cat­ egorize women as being able to fol­ low through with anything they be­ lieve in. Maybe you need to take a look at the real world, rather than at the microcosm your closed mind has created. Jennifer Moore ASU Box 5106 Parking problems To the Editor inis tall, you may notice that more of the faculty are ill-prepared and half-hearted about their teaching. This is not your fault! The reason is that our morale has been flattened by the Appalachian administration which has discovered that its employees, the very people they are supposedly pay­ ing to provide quality service to you who pay a lot of money for that ser­ vice, can also be a source of revenues for the university. The staff and fac­ ulty now have to pay $100 to try and find a parking space near to where they work and a $48 fee to utilize the Quinn Center to maintain their bod­ ies which are dissolving at their com­ puters. Until now, I have always given my students 100% in the classroom; my faculty evaluations rank the highest in my department and last year I was nominated for the College of Arts and Sciences' Outstanding Teacher Award. But now I find myself driving to an Appalcart stop, parking illegally, wait­ ing for the Appalcart (which isn't al­ ways on time), and arriving at work significantly later than I had in the past. (I used to come in at 7 a.m. to prepare for class!) Moreover, upon arriving at work, I feel that nobody cares about the job I am doing here. I am only rewarded with an annual raise Is a b i g g e r campus better? To the Editor: While reading through the first issue of the Appalachian for this school year, I no­ ticed two large cover stories that really made me think. They told of more freshmen than ever and more construction on the way. After reading the articles and talking to peers about these is­ sues I started to real­ ize that a large part of my decision to come to Appalachian in the fall of '92 was that it was relatively small and seemed to offer a lot for a school of its size. Therefore, I think with the great faculty and competitive admis­ sions that we have we should strive SGA, Men's Service Club, Legends staff, A.RRS., and Alpha Phi Omega, forfeited their night of fun to help manage the event. Also, your Student Affairs Administrators volunteered their evening to support the back to school ritual. But, this "thank you" note is meant to bring attention to two im­ portant elements of the campus com­ munity that rarely receive any posi­ tive recognition. I refer to Appala­ chian Security and the Physical Plant. To administer to all the needs of an affair of this magnitude required the enlisting of support of all available personnel from each department. Many of these workers had already put in a full work shift, and then added another shift to work for the party. If you couldn't tell the following morn­ ing that onehalf of the entire enroll­ ment had a great party in the middle of campus it was because the Physical Plant grounds crew came to work as soon as the music stopped. From 3a.m. to 6a.m. they swept, picked up and hosed the area clean. So, the next time you happen to walk by an ASU Secu­ rity officer, or one of the "folks in green" working to help keep the cam­ pus community safe and clean why not say "hello" and let them know they are appreciated. port with my silence an article which perpetuates a standard of ignorance on Appalachian's campus. If critiques must be written about the works on campus for a change, please respect that which is being critiqued.

Why don't I pay the $100 to park where I work? My salary is slightly less than that of the average carpen­ ter. Each month, after I have paid my mortgage, car loan, university loans, insurance, and day care fees, I have approximately $300 left to buy my family's food, clothing, gasoline, etc., and maintain our car and home. Sev­ eral times last year we had no money. We do not have a savings account. I can't afford to park where I work or to use its facilities! Please forgive me and my col­ leagues. You deserve the quality edu­ cation that you're paying for. But in­ stead, the administration is robbing its employees to build a parking deck for you. Who needs an education when you have a parking deck? Thomas R. Whyte Anthropology Department To the Editc 1 honestly did not know if I should lnii<>h or rrv at Vice Chancellor Jane Helm's comments in "Parking Fee in­ creases $30 (August 29). But, there it was in black and white. The vice chan­ cellor believes the "most serious prob­ lem on campus" is parking! Hello! This is an institution of higher learn­ ing, not better parking. to remain a "small" school with very high standards rather than a larger school with lower standards. The real question is whether or not Appalachian will continue to at­ tract smart, caring students. If I had to make a decision on where to go to school this fall, Appalachian's future Student claims "female abuse" To the Editor: 1 want to start off by saying that there is something that is becoming more prevalent on University Cam­ puses these days and in society as well. FEMALE ABUSE. The only thing is that a lot of females do not report the abuse and the ones that do are pretty much treated like a common criminal. It is often believed that the female de­ served it. I am a student at Appalachian and I have reported wrong doings against me since March of '95, but no one has taken me seriously or has really done anything about it. Last March, after much abuse, I broke up with my boyfriend and in about one hour there were posters all over campus stating "Are you ready for a good time? I am day or night. Call for your appoint­ ment". My full name and telephone number was printed. Do you remem­ ber seeing this? I went to the ASU police to report this but nothing was ever done be­ cause they said it was very difficult to prove who did it. It wouldn't take too much of a brain to figure that out. The guy confessed and promised not to do it again so we ended up togethermuch to my sorrow. Since then I have been beaten up twice by him, once off campus, for which he is currently awaiting trial. The second time I was approached and assaulted on campus and was told that if I did not drop the legal charges things were going to get nasty. I did not report this immedi­ ately to the Appalachian police be­ cause, like before, they would prob­ ably do nothing. However, I did call my lawyer and he said to tell the judge when we went to court four days later. Much to my dismay, court was re­ scheduled because he had not retained an attorney. When spring semester ended, my female roommate and I agreed to let a male friend from my nearby home­ town, and who knew my previous boy­ friend, move into the apartment since Well, if parking is our most seri­ ous problem, I assume we should in­ vest most of our resources into solv­ ing this debacle. Maybe we can tear down some more churches and pave the entire town of Boone. The prob­ lem, Vice Chancellor, is not parking, its too manv damn cars. Mavbe we need to put a cap on the number of parking spaces we will allow on our campus. What a novel idea! Our administration really needs to look at the congestion problems on campus and come up with solutions that treat the cause (cars) and not the plans to grow might seriously influ­ ence me to look elsewhere for a tighter community and a more per­ sonal education. And so while great programs like the Cove Creek Farm are being cut, more and more construction contin­ ues. Will this really at­ tract the quality stu­ dents that we want? I suppose we will see soon enough. So Joe Watts, if our current size "affords us sense of community that we might not have if we were bigger," why should we have a growth policy at all? Bigger, as we all know, is not always better. Carter Maden ASU Box 15905 symptoms (lack of parking). I'm cer­ tain almost everyone who attends school here realizes that we have "more serious" problems than parking. We need to look no further than our own library. It would also be a good idea to make sure we do not allow our off-campus sites, such as the AppHouse in Washington, D.C. and the New York City loft to be lost. I hope our administration attempts to solve these "serious problems." Paul D. Roof ASU Box 17449 Faulkner got what she deserved To the Editor: Obviously the columnist who wrote the article "Faulkner deserves better has no idea of what went on in South Carolina or the Citadel for that matter. Let me start out by saying that she (the columnist) should research what she is writing about. I realize this is harsh, but I also realize that the real issue in the Faulkner incident has es­ caped the author. She wrote that she had heard more about how short Faulkner's hair would be, surd rhe ex­ tra security that would be needed than she cared to. This js the real reason! When asked why she wanted to attend the Citadel, Faulkner cited as her rea­ son, that it was a one of a kind institu­ tion, a one of a kind education, and a one of a kind experience, however, when the first female ever to attend walked onto the campus, she com- see Faulkner page 9 he had no place to live. I was not close to this male so when we discovered he was selling drugs I called the po­ lice and turned him in. I'd rather he go than for all of us to get busted for something we weren't doing. This, I discovered later, cost this student a conviction, court cost, community ser­ vice, plus his RA job when he was screened by the school. So now I am facing the biggest battle of my life. These two guys got together and are now trying to pros­ ecute me at the university by charg­ ing me with dropping one of their class schedules during the summer. If you do not know this, you register by phone at ASU. In order to register you have to have a social security number, a pin number, and sometimes an ad­ visement number, any of which I did not and do not know of this male stu­ dent. The school has allowed this charge to stand. Where is my justice? Remember the posters and the two assaults - one which left me with bruises for two weeks. Back to the main issue, what I am being charged with? Am I the victim or what? My ex-boyfriend has brought false charges against me at Appalachian so that he could intimidate me into drop­ ping the charges in legal court. The other guy is his witness and is stating that I confided in him that I did it. If I ever did anything remotely criminal, I sure would not tell anyone. Give me some credit. The only thing the school can go on are the statements made by these two males. I was encouraged by the school administration to drop the legal charges and " get on with my life." Even though this is my situation, I am not going to let this get me down because this is my last semester here and hopefully justice will prevail and that I will be able to finish my last se­ mester here. So when you look for help don't necessarily count on it because if you do you might just get disap­ pointed like I have been, and am now, in this university. Claudia Campbell ASU box 13655 Faculty should not have to pay for Ouinn, Mt. Mitchell c e n t e r s To the Editor: I am writing in response to the recent article printed about the de­ cision of the Student Government asking faculty and staff to pay a fee of $48 dollars to use the Quinn and Mt. Mitchell Fitness Centers. I am hear to say not all students are in favor of the fee. Faculty and staff are not the only ones who are con­ cerned. The argument that faculty are here at Appalachian longer than most students is valid. The faculty and staff stay on campus to teach, while we graduate and enter the real world. Without the faculty, none of us would be making this journey. Giving the faculty free access to the fitness centers is a way the students can say we appreciate them. Yes, faculty is paid for their services by the university, but can we not give a little pay back of our own? The Quinn and Mt. Mitchell centers are fringe benefits the fac­ ulty and staff should have without question. The faculty at Appala­ chian work way and above their duties with little pay and only small increases in their salaries. I feel for the students who feel the fitness centers are too much for the faculty to ask for. Furthermore, only half the faculty and staff use these centers, and last time I checked there was not a line forming due to faculty usage. I believe the faculty is not "whining" over the cost of the fees, but over the principal. I will con­ tinue to "whine" with our staff and wonderful faculty members. As far as I am concerned the faculty pull more than their own weight. Heather Wright ASU Box 8536 �The Appalachian 7 Se Page 8 Ptemb, 'err Perpetual parking problems persist Tim Nicholson Columnist Facts: Appalachian is crowded; college people need to park; emergencies erupt; deadlines loom. There are 7,000 campus drivers who have parking stickers. In the past the university traffic division has written about 28,000 tickets in a o year, generating about $435,000. Excuse me if I seem confused, but how many parkers don't break the law? The ones who get the best places? The ones who never have to meet urgent deadlines. The ones who have plenty of time with their college loads? • in !1 How can 7,000 people pay $ 100 each and still afford to come up with another $400,000 in penalties? Are these the same people? My theory is that the criminals might be pressured into bad parking by a little thing called school, a little thing called their permanent record. Those things all make getting a ticket worth it. It makes for a perfect set-up. Give students and staff deadlines. Give them too few spaces to fight over. Then just wait. They come out like roaches, parking pests. How do we make deci­ sions about parking fees and fines? Do the people who make the policy have good parking spots? Do they even live in Boone, or hang out on campus? Most don't. A few live here, like Darby Weaver, the Student Government Association president. She faced the Board of Trustees alone. She had a week from the time of the final meeting-in summer, when she was still new at her job. There were no students around, or time to organize discussions of al­ ternative plans. I can't say for sure that the plan was to avoid a controversial battle, but it does look funny. Ask anyone the most controversial issue on campus this fall. At Mountain­ eer Apartments we get to pay an extra $100 this fall. You can hear discussions every day. Why didn't we get a say? So much for politics. good, friendly human beings. Appala­ chian campus security deserves praise and appreciation. Life is good, and I feel safe here. The workers only try to make this crowded, impossible situation more bearable. Still the scope of the problem demands a discussion and a search for a better way. The time and money are already spent. There must be solutions somewhere out there. At least the chance to talk it out and get it off our chests. For desperado students, tick­ ets can pay for themselves in good grades, with better work turned in on time, appointments kept, and even in case of real emergencies. The parking can't really get much better because Boone, the state and people like us need Appalachian. I think it makes these mountains even better, financially, cul­ turally, more fun. Parking matters. we could control the traffic, and accommo­ date the desperate, and eliminate the illegality and quilt. These factors alienate and create con­ flict between the policy makers and the people they serve. Until then, communication and a more realistic approach would go a long way to assuaging the hurt feel­ ings shared by so many students and teachers.

The Citadel is different from other institutions because there is one stan­ dard for everyone. Nobody gets spe­ cial treatment, and no one is allowed to bend the rules because of their dif­ ferences. When Faulkner was allowed to attend the school this changed. Her hair was not shaved off like the other ca dets. No cadet in history had ever had a separate bathroom and living quarters. Faulkner did. This does not sound to me as if there is one standard, but two separate standards. So the whole reason that Shannon Faulkner went to the Citadel was wholly, completely, and utterly deci­ mated by none other than herself. Kind of a bitter sweet irony don't you think? As if destroying the sanctity of the school wasn't enough, she has the audacity to arrive at the school so ut­ terly out of shape, that she was un­ able to make it through her first week. Now this is not to say that women can­ not keep up with men, because I know many women who could put myself to shame when it comes to exercise, but this again comes to me as a bitter it was a man trying to enter into an all-female school, I would be totally against that as well! 1 personally hope that either the Citadel or South Caro­ lina sue Ms. Faulkner for the time, money, and inconvenience that they suffered. The only people who suf­ fered here are the cadets at the Citadel, and the persons involved in the lawsuit, not Ms. Faulkner. So again 1 say to the columnist, please be sure of the details of your story, and the real issues at hand. I am sure that if Ms. Faulkner had an acceptable application good enough to enter the Citadel, she will no doubt be able to get into a fine University anywhere in this great na­ tion. The Citadel is different from other institutions because there is one standard for everyone. sweet irony. So as we can see, this issue has nothing to do with equal treatment between women and men, but rather a noble effort at keeping the sanctity and unequaled experience of an institution like the Citadel just as it was when it was founded.

The Mt. Mitchell Fit­ ness Centre is now here to help. Offering classes in yoga, karate and aerobics, and lo­ cated centrally on campus, the center may be the answer to all of your fitness prayers. Unlike most campus activities throughout the week, these classes are designed to reduce stress. After Bless Burke's first yoga class she said, "it was soothing and relaxing." The Mt. Mitchell Fitness Centre "is really new and up to date," said freshman trent Peterson, who prefers the Cybex equipment over free weights. Noel Barkley agrees, "I like the equipment better because I don't like free weights. This equipment tones my muscles rather than making them bulky." Appalachian Recreational Sports Facility ( Supervisor, Melissa Crabtree says, "the Plemmons Student Union is extremely conve­ nient because it is located on the primary side of campus where most classes are offered." This makes working out a great deal easier on those who enjoy exercising before lunch or be­ tween classes. Fitness and Facilities coordina­ tor, Sherry Crane says, "the center is able to meet the needs of faculty and students by pro­ viding a central meeting place for eating, ex­ ercising, and studying." This facility offers A wide range of equip­ ment varying from a weight room, cycles, re­ cumbent bikes, step machines, and dumbbells. While some students prefer to break a sweat with free weights, the center was created mainly for the Cybex equipment. Due to the i offices located below the center, the free weights would cause disruptions. However, free weights are being considered for next year. Yoga will be offered at 6:30 p.m. on Mon­ days and Wednesdays. This exercise is great for muscle toning, stretching, and flexibility. All of the activities offered at the center are free of charge and are taught by qualified in­ structors. If you are more interested in mind con­ trol, karate may be the ideal exercise for you. The karate instruction allows for you to ad­ vance in belts and it creates self-discipline through self-defense. Even if you just want to try a class out, all you have to do is show up ready to break a sweat and learn about Mar­ tial Arts. Ryan Frye, who has received three black belts in American karate, Carucado, and Tae Kwan Do, will be instructing the class on Mondays and Wednesdays between 7:00 p.m. and 9:00 p.m. Those students who have any experience in karate are invited to attend the Martial Arts Club in the varsity gym. Any ques­ tions? Contact Ryan Frye at 266-7061 or at his ASU box# 12462. A variety of aerobic classes are offered to meet the particular needs of students. The aerobic classes consist of toning, low impact, step, slide, and aerobox. Don't worry about getting ahead of yourself. The classes are de­ signed at a pace in which you are able to ad­ vance into higher levels. With all of these options available, the Hebron Rock Colony (top picture) is a favorite spot for students to catch a few rays, hike, Mt.

Located off of Old Shull's Mill Road, Hebron Rock Colony is thei popular of the two. Students have long passed the information of its^j abouts like a secret to be known only by those who suffer the daily res of classes and homework. Dale Taylor, a freshman at Appalachian sai sister told him of the Colony's existence. And make no mistake, there chance of accidentally finding this place. One must be given direct® good directions. Once you arrive at the Colony's parking area, prepare yourself mild 15-minute walk before you actually reach the rocks. Students of ogy will probably enjoy the walk as much as they enjoy the rocks 1 with mountain vegetation, the path is quite enjoyable in its own right However, once you break through the forest and come face to with the stream cascading down the rocks, the 15-minute walk disapp5 from memory. Honestly, to call these massive formations rocks does til great injustice. They are boulders: bigger than a truck, yet smaller th house. The boulders work their way down the slope of the mountain water cascading from different points along the way. At first look, it seems as if you've entered some prehistoric region a caveman is the next sitght you expect to see. However, the bikini bodies sunning themselves on the boulders quickly dispel that notion. According to Appalachian senior Brian Mahoney, this location hasii to offer from waterfalls to hiking trails. "I love playing in the falls theri It's cold at first, but you get used to it," says Mahoney. Some students enjoy bringing their dogs to the colony. The easily d able rocks make for a perfect playground: Dan Haigler, a former Ap chian student, says, "My dog, Garnett, gets a real kick out of this are. helps tire her out before we head home." The most popular activity at Hebron requires the least amount p ergy. Most students enjoy just laying on the boulders and catching a rays. Jenny Ruggieri, a freshman at Appalachian, says she enjoys the because, "It's beautiful and peaceful out here. It makes you forget ah lot of things — you just sit back and enjoy nature." Another former! lachian student who enjoys sunbathing at Hebron is Alison Edmistt like it because it's so serene and no one is usually around," she says So, whether you like to "rock hop" as Appalachian senior, Andy£ij does, or enjoy the sun like senior, Bethany Cogswell, Hebron Rockfll( has just about everything you're looking for. 3R Laurel Creek Falls is located on the other side of Boone, just oK north toward Mountain City.

After a brief walk from the road you come to the actual falls. (j again you feel as if you've stepped back in time. At any moment anta could step out of the brush and you would not be surprised. Laurel Creek offers two sets of falls: a large fall that feeds into a! low pool, and above that, a small fall that feeds into a rather deep a ming hole. According to Steve McDowell, a part-time instructor at Apj chian, the pool is deep enough to dive into from any of the surrouc rocks. McDowell, who has been coming here for the past 30 years,! "The area was originally used to feed the waterwheel of a mill." Although the area is commonly known as "Trash Heap Falls," don the name fool you. There are no trash heaps here. In fact, the area g( name from the dumpsters that were located in the present parking all While the area is becoming more popular with the students at Apj chian, McDowell says, "It stays a lot cleaner than it used to. People are more conscientious about taking their trash with them when they 1 now." What McDowell likes most about the area is the privacy it affords "It's really nice when I come out here early and there is no one arou says McDowell. Another frequent visitor, Harold Booty, says, "It's just b tiful and quiet up here." What both of these spots offer is a chance to enjoy the mountains* out having to wrestle with tourists. This, as anyone who has been her a while will tell you, is information worth its weight in gold.

The lollipop look' comes to Appalachiar Jennifer Spiess Reporter •Ml ill I Sugar and spice and everything nice; that's what little girls are made of. Say good-bye to grunge — the lollipop look is in. Young women and twenty-somethings are walking around in baby-doll dresses, stockings, overalls, and sporting Hello Kitty backpacks over Eastpack as well as tin lunch boxes over brown bags. It's like "Excuse me, is that Osh Kosh B'Gosh you're wearing? Or, like, did your little sister dress you this morning?" Baby pastel blues and pinks, tiny-tees, Mary Janes and saddle shoes, patent-leather pocketbooks, big girls trying to dress like little girls; it's a return to innocence with the "I don't want to grow up look." I think Donna on Beverly Hills 90210, with her Barbie look-alike wardrobe, helped start the trend. Micro-mini skirts, little plastic baby barrettes, teeney Barbie tees — have you been playing in my little sister's closet? And then of course there's Courtney Love's Hole tee with the Hole wannabe Barbie oval. Did you know that Barbie is the latest fashion icon? Calvin Klein, where are you? Appalachian freshman Clay Brown likes the look, "If you like it, go'for it." He goes on to say that people should go with what they like and not worry about what others think of them. Tara Clark, another Appalachian freshman, says, "Only some people can get away with it." Like, it takes a certain person to dress that way and Alicia Silverstone, Newsweek's "It Girl of '95," and star of the movie "Clueless," is one of them. Silverstone plays Cher, a baffled Beverly Hills teenager who uses a computer program to pick out what she's going to wear. And I'm all like, yeah — as if.

Edwin McCain on Sept. 14 �The Appalachian 7 q* e ° pti Page 12 LPI IIPOP Appalachian gets a computer store continued from page 10 "cutecore," an attitude associated with underground punk music and raves. What exactly "cutecore" is, is another question. Chip Taylor of Grapevine Music comments, "That's a new one on me." But everyone wants to be cute now. Britain has "cute" bands like Shampoo and Pooh Sticks. We have Hole and Veruca Salt. Cute names, right? Hole is the name of an ani­ mated lion (I like Simba better), and Veruca Salt is the name of the snotty little girl from Charlie and the Choco­ late Factory. As for Tummy Ache and Huggie Bear, I've yet to hear them. Maybe they're little kids' bands or something. So someone somewhere decided to take "retro" a little too far and the cute lollipop look was born. Cute names, cute looks — yes, "cuteness" is the newest trend, an "endless, mar­ ketable commodity" as Newsweek put it. Cute is catching, cute is selling and, in Bloomingdale's, "Clueless" is re­ quired viewing if you're a junior shop­ per there. So, like, if you don't get it, go watch it. "Cute" is complex. Some see "cute" as a reaction against grunge. As Betsey Johnson, a lollipop look de­ signer, comments in Newsweek, after the grunge look's "I can wear my brother's clothes phase... girls wanted to wear things that were very femi­ nine." The little girl inside every woman is saying, "I'm here," and now it's the "I can wear my little sister's clothes phase." I'm not worried. People grow out of phases, and clothes. Not everyone likes this "cuteness" thing. Airwalk makes patent leather shoes and as Appalachian sophomore Gimp (nickname) j>ut it, "You just don't skate in patent leather." Danielle Wray, another Appalachian sopho­ more, says, "I don't see the point in getting all dolled-up for class, " but went on to say that people can dress the way they want to. So, is "cuteness" an immature thing? Appalachian freshman Jamie Wicker, puts it in perspective: "It looks cute... but it's a desperate plea to reenact childhood." Maybe some people just don't quite understand the look. "Cuteness" is definitely a Genera­ tion X thing; an "I don't want to grow up thing." Maybe it's just a harmless "I want to be a kid a little longer thing." But everybody has got to grow up sometime. Movie Review Stuart Crampton Reporter If you build it, they will come. At least that's what university officials are hoping for as the final touches are be­ ing put on the soon-to-be-opened stu­ dent computer store. Scheduled to "boot up" with a grand opening dur­ ing the first part of October, the new computer store will provide faculty, staff and students with quality soft­ ware and hardware at prices so attrac­ tive they could make your floppy disks hard. October 24th and 25th are two days that Appalachian State has looked forward to for years. These dates are scheduled to host the grand opening of Appalachian's much needed computer store. Following in the footsteps of schools like Western Carolina, ECU, NCSU, and UNCChapel Hill, Appalachian will finally attempt to cater to the needs of its most valuable commodity: its stu­ dents. Having a broad array of acces­ sories such as computer cable and disks already available, the new com­ puter store will stock 40 to 50 differ­ ent software titles with the capability of ordering hundreds more when the need arises. Since much of the computer store's reason for opening can be at­ tributed to the Apple Corporation and the generous student discounts that Apple is offering Appalachian, the fo­ cus on hardware will likely center on Apple Macintoshes. AT8cT laptops and PC's will also be common sights in the store as a result of the good deals that AT8iT has also offered Appalachian. "I think the prices that the new computer store will have to offer Appalachian will be so competitive that they will be seen as almost like a service," said the enthused computer store manager Rick Nicholson. "We expect to match up with wholesale prices or better most of the time." Mr. Nicholson and his program coordinators,Vince Piekarski and Greg Langdor\have worked diligently with a very supportive cast of chancelors and others. In addition to giving birth to an efficient and fairly wellequipped computer store that would impress even Bill Gates, the univer­ sity hopes to garnish the store with as much student appeal as possible. For example, the coordinators be­ hind the scenes plan to impliment a widely accessible Apple loan pro­ gram which would allow students, faculty, and staff to receive direct loans from Apple to keep payments at a minimum and avoid having to make huge down payments. Also, frustration-prone computer users can take comfort in the fact that one of the goals of the computer store is to provide distressed customers with any technical support they need. "Considering that the conges­ tion of the computer labs often makes it seem like all 12,000 stu­ dents are trying to type their papers at once, I wouldn't hesitate to buy a discounted computer from the new computer store,"said junior Rebecca Walker. "After becoming aware of how much the computer store's staff wants student feedback, I realized that the computer store really has been designed to help the students," says freshman computer store em­ ployee, Michael Eshleman. In es­ sence, whether you think memory bites is the sequel to "Reality Bites," or whether you are Scooter Com­ puter (doesn't anyone remember School House Rock), itwould be dif­ ficult not to recognize the benefits and good intentions of a student computer store. A sinfully bad movie Steven Mackay Reporter One of the candidates for lemon of the year is the sinfully bad "The Prophesy" (R), a ridiculous flick about a "civil war" of sorts in Heaven that has moved to Earth. Only one person can stop the war. He's a former priest turned po­ lice detective named Thomas Dagget (Elias Koteas), who has lost his faith in life and God. His name is an ob­ vious pun, he's a "Doubting Tho­ mas." Thomas is a generic Hollywood cop. He lives alone in a dingy apart­ ment, smokes like a chimney, doesn't own a razor, dresses like a clotheshorse, and his emotions are out of whack. On the bright side, Tom will have bragging rights at the office. He gets to go one-on-one with Gabriel (Christopher Walken), a sin­ ister arch-angel who has declared war on God.

"We stressed no mistakes this year and irked on it in practice and 1 think it made a of difference. We did not make the misces we made last year," said ASU football ach Jerry Moore. App took the ball on the opening drive and nt 54 yards on 10 plays for a 7-0 lead after mie Coleman gave the offense great field sition with a 43 yard kick-off return. The nbo of Scott Satterfield and Damon Scott the tone, running rampant on the Deacon fense for 46 of the yards, ending with terfield rolling left for the final five yards d his first touchdown of the night. On their next possession the Apps went 84 u Js in 16 plays only to settle for a field goal, Ving them a 10-0 lead. Once again led by ^ rushing attack and a 23 yard reception by win Lance, ASU was poised for another TD, Scott was dropped for a loss of five and Iterfield missed Kevin Burton in the end lie. The Mountaineers were held to a Jay ton 23 yard field goal. On the following play, Wake Forest return n Marlon Estes fumbled only to recover the at the WFU 21. Again, the Apps defense 3ped up and after a Jason Hatcher sack, a arming Mountaineer defense caused WFU rterback Rusty LaRue to fumble and Chip ler recovered at the Wake 13. Four plays t| :r, Kareem Young rumbled up the middle two yards and a touchdown. With 11:35 in the half, App's lead increased to 17-0. tallowing another three and out possession he Demon Deacons, ASU regained possesI and mounted yet another drive. The untaineer offense seemed to move the ball /ill against Wake, but after putting the ball he WFU red zone for the fourth time, App t itself in the foot with a Young fumble at II yard line. Vake Forest's offense looked completely out nc pyn as the Mountaineer defense stymied Sports Page 13 hold off Deacon comeback any hopes of a drive. With 3rd and 5 at their own 16, redshirt freshman Jon Fanning sacked LaRue for an eight yard loss, forcing WFU to punt. Appalachian took over near midfield, and 10 plays and 46 yards later, Satterfield rolled right for his second TD of the night. ASU in­ creased its lead to 24-0 and held that lead at halftime. In the first half the Mountaineers were un­ stoppable on offense and defense. The offense led by Satterfield and Scott gained 187 yards on 38 carries. Satterfield was also 5-9 for 52 yards passing. The App defense held WFU to just 17 plays including three sacks for a total of 18 yards total offense. Appalachian also dominated time of possession with a 11:42 ad­ vantage. However, as all good things must come to an end, so did the Mountaineer dominance. Wake Forest took advantage of the intermis­ sion and with the leadership of a new quarter­ back, Brian Kuklick, clawed their way back into the game. On the opening possession in the second half, WFU varied their attack as they ran and passed their way to their first score on a 39 yard reception by Estes in the end zone. The Deacs capped off the TD with a two-point con­ version after the Apps snubbed their first at­ tempt, but an extremely late offsides penalty against ASU gave WFU another try and the score was narrowed to 24-8. Wake forced Appalachian to three and out and after a 40 yard punt by Allen Guinn, WFU took over at their own 30. Once again, Wake varied their attack with Herman Lewis scram­ bling for 29 yards and Kuklick throwing for 37 more including a 4 yard score to Estes. The App lead was cut to 24-15. Following a couple of failed drives by both teams, ASU mounted a drive from midfield. App receiver Ron Gilliam made a 27 yard re­ ception, moving the ball to the WFU nine. One play later, Lance busted up the middle for eight yards, giving ASU 2nd and goal at the one. The Mountaineers were stopped on second and third downs and elected to go for it on fourth and goal, but Scott fumbled and Wake recov­ ered at the two. The App defense once again stepped up and forced WFU to punt out of their own end zone, however ASU could not capitalize as Satterfield got picked off by Brent Morehead. Wake's of­ fense moved the ball again, this time with the help of a 38 yard reception by Dan Ballou, but two bad passes by Kuklick forced WFU to at­ tempt the field goal, but App linebacker Marvin Hodge was not having any part of that as he swatted away the attempt. The Mountaineers recovered at the WFU seven. The Deacs stepped up and forced a punt. After a good return by Estes, Wake had the ball at App's 36. Kuklick completed a pass to Estes for 33 yards and Lewis earned it the rest of the way to give WFU its third TD of the game, cutting the score to 24-22. With the tension mounting and score ex­ tremely close, the Mountaineer defense stepped up and allowed the offense to run the clock out. App ended their three game skid against Wake and came away with the 24-22 win. Commenting on the game App head foot­ ball coach Jerry Moore stated, "The change in quarterback was big for them, then three of our offensive linemen went down. Our conti­ nuity was gone and with a few dropped balls, it put a damper on the second half. However, we did the things we had to do, the defense stopped them and we had a good punting game, so we were able to run the clock out." The Apps take the field again this Saturday against Edinboro. Game time is set for 7:00 pm at Kidd Brewer Stadium. The Appalachian defense withstood a second half storm by the Deacons on the way to a 24-22 victory.

Although the Mountaineers were not vic>us, the games were very close, with Apichian winning games against UAB and ier. The lady spikers were lead by April "ells and Amy Kolomechuk who both had tanding tournaments, he Lady Apps were hindered by injuries ughout the tournament. Miriam Sealey was unable to participate due to shoulder sur­ gery and is not expected back until mid Sep­ tember. Kathy Granack did play in the week­ end tournament, but was effected by an ankle injury. Coach Markland mentioned that the team had several problems that needed to be worked on. Some of these problems being communi­ cation or? the court and ball control. "The main problem from my standpoint is being unsure about the lineup," said Markland. This weekend the Lady Appswill be travel­ ing to Virginia to play in the Virginia Tech Tour­ nament. There they will be facing tough com­ petition from Virginia, Northwestern, and Vir­ ginia Tech. The Appalachian men's and women's cross country team opened their season Saturday at Bass Lake, Blowing Rock, NC. Both teams fin­ ished second in the meet. The men's team picked up right where they left off last season, with a score of 29. Wake Forest won the meet however, just edging out the Mountaineers with a score of 28. The App harriers, now 3-1, finished strong in the 8000 meters with Tommy Holland finishing first in a time of 25:13. Seth Peoples finished 17 sec­ onds later, coming in second. Losing by one point was hard on the Moun­ taineers. "It was a tough loss and we were hoping to beat Wake, but they are a team to contend with," said assistant coach Mike Kurcio. There were, however, some positives for the harriers. "The team ran a whole lot better and faster than we ran at this point last sea­ son. Also our freshmen did really well and reached their goals for this meet," said Kurcio. A milestone was also reached at the meet. Peoples' time put him 10th on the ASU All Time coach John Weaver. "We got off to a much bet­ ter start than last season and the times were much faster," said Weaver. The team lost by 69 points to Wake Forest, but ended up tied f o rs e c o n dw i t h U N CCharlotte. T h e Lady Harriers were also pleased with their new runners. Christina Olson, a transfer from Brevard Col­ lege, is currently in the number one position for the Lady Apps. She finished 13th overall in the meet with a time of 18:56. "Christina is doing wonder­ fully and Corie Fuchs is al­ ready fulfilling promises. The other freshmen are de­ veloping while learning and training," said Weaver. The men's team next travels to Ra­ leigh, NC on September16 to run against North Carolina State and South Florida. The women's team next meet is on September 9, when they travel to Annapolis, Md. to face Navy and Dela­ ware. "We got off to a much better start than last season and the times were much faster" -John Weaver List. In the final minute, he passed Wake Forest's number one and two runners to finish second overall. "We are all very proud of Seth and his accomplishments," said Kurcio. The women's team was very pleased with their second place finish, according to head pps set to host Edinboro hen Hensley ts Editor Mid would be easy for the Appalachian foot• • -j am to overlook their game with Edinboro m j lay night.

But this is a new year for Edinboro. Jack­ son and Dickerson have graduated. A group of new offensive starters hope to pave the way for Edinboro's success. Running back Gerald Thompson rushed for 133 yards in his debut for the Fighting Scots last Saturday in a 21-14 win over Div. II Hillsdale. Chris Hart stepped in as quarter­ back for Edinboro, passing for over 200 yards and one touchdown. However, Hart was picked off three times in the game, which is good news to Mountaineer cornerback Matt Stevens and his pursuit of a conference interception record. More good news for the Appalachian de­ fense will be the fact that Edinboro runs an Iformation offensive set, similar to the one run by Appalachian's offense. Defensively, the Scots are led by Pat Schuster. Schuster had 12 tackles and three sacks against Hillsdale. Edinboro will have to depend on Schuster and his teammates to help stymie the Moun­ taineer ball control offense. The Apps ran 83 plays last Thursday against Wake Forest and held the ball for a full 15 minutes longer than the Deacs.

China, in a virtual two-country race with Australia for the Summer Games of 2000, probably lost a step in the selection process when the government's questionable human rights were revealed to the world. The release of a prominent political dissi­ dent in 1993 was a suspicious move. The gesture seemed too convenient,a move geared toward gaining points with the IOC. Tommy Smith and John Carlos, American track and field medalists in the 1968 Mexico City Games, caused an uproar by raising their gloved fists rather than honor the flag and anthem in a traditional way. Germany hosted the Games in 1936, despite a terrible legacy which was only months away from being truly unmasked. Even the world's greatest spectacle of sport, the games dedicated to good­ will, are prone to the occasional stumble on the road of wholesomeness. The Games are still just games. Imagine the International Olympic Committee selecting your home city as the host of the next Summer Games. Then imagine a guy walking through your neighborhood, mutter­ ing to himself, "Mmm . . . this sure would be a good site for the Centen­ nial Olympic Park. Think well knock down 72 acres of houses and busi­ nesses to make room." Don't let your imagination stop there (unless you're awakening from this daydream-turned-nightmare). As you fight the IOC and your home state to keep your property, you read that a neighboring county has passed an antigay resolution. Olympic spirit?

When faculty enter the Quinn Center they III have their I.D. card run through the scanner to ] ck their eligibility. They can also choose to pay a lily fee of $96 per year, $4 more per month, which DWS facility access for themselves and eligible fammembers. Last year's Student Government Association posed this fee to Dr. Gregory Blimling, vice chanor for student development. J.D. Adams, former dent body president, spoke to the staff counsel |i faculty senate last spring, and neither group ed for the fee. The final decision was left up to SGA, facand staff, and the vice chancellors. SGA was in |or of the fee, faculty and staff were not in favor, after much discussion the vice chancellors de:d the fee was reasonable. Moneys paid by faculty members choosing se the facility will go toward the extra fees of the Mt. Mitchell Fitness Center which was added to Plemmons Student Union. Blimling feels the addition of this facility is necessary to accommodate the increase in demand by students, faculty, and staff for use of fitness equip­ ment and the aerobics exercise program. "With the addition of this facility came in­ creased costs," said Blimling. "Included among these are increased costs for staff, equipment, maintenance, heat, electricity, bonded indebtedness, and related costs." He feels that all users of these facilities should pay their part. Approximately $48 per year of student fees go to support the Quinn Center and the Mt. Mitchell Fitness Center, said Blimling. He believes that it is not unreasonable for faculty and staff members who wish to use university recreational facilities to pay the same cost for the use of these facilities that stu­ dents are asked to pay. Increases in student fees made it possible for faculty and staff to continually use the Quinn Center and other facilities on campus at no cost to faculty and staff, said Blimling. Blimling also reaffirmed that faculty and staff members who wish to use the University's swimming pool, or the Varsity and Broome-Kirk gymnasiums, the track at the football stadium, tennis courts, and intramural fields may continue to do so without any cost. "The Hubbard Center continues to run a fit­ ness program for faculty and staff including aerobics, exercise equipment, and consultation on physical fit­ ness," said Blimling. Blimling said he acknowledges the concern of faculty and staff and wishes the state provided them with the money to subsidize the use of student recreational facilities by the faculty and staff. "In good conscience and in fairness to stu­ dents," said Blimling, "I believe the fee is necessary." Permanent faculty and staff who opt to use the facilities can pay through payroll deduction, as they do with parking fees, or can pay it up front at the Student Account Office.

The option of paying for a space according to the time the area is used may come into effect when the parking garage is built. Also, the possibility of basing fees on one's income has been considered. However, at this point, the parking fee in­ crease will have to be paid by all.

Approximately two months ago, the University Police moved from their on-campus facility in the Aca­ demic Annex, to a temporary off-cam­ pus facility off of Dale Street near State Farm Parking Lot. The Traffic Division of the ASU police remains on campus, located in a trailer adjacent to Kerr Scott Hall, near Hill Street. According to University Police Director Roy Tugman, the relocation of the campus police is to make room for the anticipated renovation and expan sion of the university's steam plant. Tugman added that the reloca tion of both facilities is temporary, and is expected to last 24 to 30 months at the most. MSA program reinstated Susan Williams Reporter The Reich College of Education will be able to continue to offer a Master's Degree in School Administration. The program had previously been eliminated. "We're very pleased to have the program back," said Dr. Charles R. Duke, dean of the School of Education. Duke also said it was "alumni and so forth contact­ ing the legislature that helped get the pro­ gram back." According to Duke, George Holmes, an Appalachian supporter and state legislator, was instrumental in in­ troducing the legislation that allows Ap­ palachian to keep the MSA program. The current MSA is to be phased out by 1998. However, it will be replaced by a new MSA program that will be in­ stated in 1996. All students currently enrolled in the MSA program will be able to com­ plete their graduation requirements by 1998, and all new students seeking an MSA degree will enter the new program. see MSA on page 2 Appalachian is published with support from Appalachian's Center for Student Involvement and Leadership.

Presendy, Appalachian is negotiating with the Frontier Gas Company, who possesses a provi­ sional contract to bring natural gas to the High Country. If successful, the new plant will burn natural gas, as well as oil. According to Steam Plant Maintenance Supervisor Rick Holmes, bringing natural gas up the mountain is more difficult than state funds, which they claim would be needed to bury a pipe­ it sounds.

Robbins added that the plant would burn natural gas only when it is less expensive than burning oil. Whichever fuel is not in use would be utilized as a backup energy source. The first step in construc­ tion of the new plant is the demo­ lition of the Academic Annex building, former home to the Cam­ pus Security Office. The annex will undergo a two to three week As­ bestos removal process, scheduled to begin on September 18.

The science building will house two departments: chemistry, and physics and astronomy. It will consist of 112,000 square feet with 50 laboratories, 10 class­ rooms anad additional facilities for stu­ dents. Glaxo Wellcome's gift marks the largest single corporate contribution re­ ceived so far for the fund-raising project. It challenges the university to raise an ad­ ditional $450,000 during the next four years from corporations and foundations. With Glaxo Wellcome's gift, nearly $700,000 has been raised so fan Marilyn Foote-Hudson, director of the Glaxo Foundation, said, "As the country's largest pharmaceutical research firm, we at Glaxo Wellcome understand the importance of improving science and math education in North Carolina. This offers future teachers and scientists an opportunity to increase their hands-on learning experiences that they can then use in their own classrooms to encourage a love of science among their students." Dr. Donald Sink, dean of Appalachian's College of Arts and Sci­ ences, said Glaxo Wellcome's gift is "an impetus for us to acquire a realistic en­ dowment base for the College of Arts and Sciences." While interest from the endow­ ment will be used for the sciences, it will also relieve budget pressures on the 15 other administrative departments within the college. "It will be beneficial for many years to come," Sink said. Glaxo Wellcome has supported Appalachian in the past through its Women in Science scholarships given to female science majors and through a grant to the Harlan E. Boyles CEO Lecture Se­ ries.

Pay up and shut up Last year, the Student Government As­ sociation passed a resolution asking fac­ ulty and staff to pay a $48 fee to use the Quinn and Mt. Mitchell Fitness Centers. The fee, which is now in effect, has come under fire by faculty and staff, who be­ lieve they should not be asked to pay. The faculty senate has posed many arguments as to why they should not be asked to pay. However, none are strong enough to sup­ port students bearing the entire fee for keeping up these facilities. One of the faculties' arguments is that while we only pay for the Quinn and Mt. Mitchell for the four years we are here, they are paying over a long period of time. However, this argument is invalid. Faculty and staff pay the fee while they are em­ ployed by Appalachian. Students must also pay the fee while at Appalachian. The Faculty Senate also addressed the fact that faculty and staff receive only small increases in pay every year. Stu­ dents everywhere sympathize with the fact that teachers don't get paid nearly what they are worth. However, for every year teachers get a small pay increase, students get hit with huge fee increases. Part of these fees are used for maintenance and repair of the equipment in the Quinn and Mt. Mitchell. If they use the same equipment students use, shouldn't they be responsible for a portion of its upkeep? The faculty senate emphasized the point that corporate America often pro­ vides free fitness facilities to their employ­ ees. If this university were a part of cor­ porate America, that argument may stand up. But the last time we looked, Appala­ chian was a non-profit organization. Even so, the university has set up the Fitness Court in Varsity Gym, which fac­ ulty and staff can use Monday through Friday during lunch and Monday, Tues­ day and Thursday evenings, according to Dr. Jim Avant, former director of Recre­ ational Sports. There is also an aerobic workout in the gym three days a week, Avant says. The only requirement for fac­ ulty and staff to use the facilities is that they undergo a free fitness assessment. Overall, faculty and staff are whining over a fee which amounts to four dollars per month. Private health clubs cost be­ tween $30 and $35 per month. That is a savings of up to $372 per year. Also, it is important to remember that while stu­ dents are required to pay this fee, it is not mandatory for faculty and staff. They only pay if they choose to use the facilities. During their meeting, some faculty asked, "Where does it all end?" We stu­ dents want to know the same thing. This is why we think it's high time everyone started pulling their own weight.

The pub­ lic whipping given to Clarence Thomas was a warning to future uppity runaways who wish to emancipate their people from the welfare state. If anything keeps Powell out of this race it will be the knowledge of what happens to prominent black gentlemen in America who threaten the crumbling base of the Democratic party by encouraging independent thought. Can superstores ruin small towns? No, but a bunch of selfish smug elitists can. When Wal-Mart comes to town they will bring jobs and help lower artificially in- capitalism.

To me it is the same as taxa out representation. see Tuitl Was your summer all it could've bee Jason Wilkinson Columnist So, how was your summer? You've probably heard that enough times by now to make your stomach turn. This stomach turning could be caused by one of two things: 1) The incessant frequency that people ask you this with a sort of glossy look in their eyes, making it obvi­ ous they have the attention span of a twitchy gnat, or 2) You don't have a terribly good answer. My first two summers away from college were spent at a factory. I made a good deal of money. I don't regret doing so, but when it came time to talk about my summer, mainly I said "hot, loud, and repetitious...like an Aerosmith concert perhaps." It didn't make for much in the way of storytelling. If vicarious living counts for any­ thing, then I'm living it up. One of my closest friends has been on the Appala­ chian Trail all summer long. He was in Vermont last time I heard from him (the trail starts in Georgia). His stories have been some of the funniest and wildest I have ever heard. Often, I wish I was there with him, except for the stories involving weeks of rain and wet gear. Everyone probably has a friend that embarked on some sort of summer ad­ venture; but knowing someone who is having a good time isn't quite enough. We have to actually make an effort to have some fun ourselves, and not just ordinary fun, different fun. The kind of fun that makes for a good story. Just living somewhere other then home during the break is a good step. I'm not say­ ing that living at home is bad, like I said, I did it for two summers. But if you graduate in four years (which is slowly going the way of the Beta VCR) you have only three sum­ mers. The sum­ mer after gradua­ tion doesn't count because much of this time is spent trying to establish a place to sleep and a way to pay for cable TV for the rest of one's life. Three sum­ mers go by very quickly. And obvi­ ously, if you have already used up some of your sum­ mers, then time is of the essence. So go on a trip to New Orleans, stay in a hostile, and eat reasonably. It won't cost as much as the Power Ranger action figures. Or if money is no object, go overseas.

I feel the same should be true about Columbia College, an all-fe­ male, religious institution also sup­ ported by South Carolina. Discrimination should not be state supported. Period. One of the arguments against allowing Faulkner to attend the Citadel was that it would hurt tra­ dition. Tradition is respectable, but in this case, it has gotten out of hand. Tradi­ tion is not enough to al­ low a state supported university to continue to receive tax revenues if that school continues to block certain groups from at­ tending. It is wrong for the gov­ ernment, which operates accord­ ing to the Constitution, to support institutions that don't follow the principles laid out in the constitu­ tion. When Faulkner left The Cita­ del after only a few days, the other cadets cheered. They were shown on television smoking cigars and partying. One cadet held up the now famous bumper sticker read- ing, '1,952 BULLDOGS AND 1 BITCH' and tore it in half. These are the images that people are go­ ing to remember when they think about Faulkner and her struggle. Some will even totally forget that her case was fought based on the tax revenue issue. What I will remember is the news footage of a 20-year-old woman standing under an um­ brella sur­ rounded by reporters. As the rain streamed down her face it mingled with her tears. Weeping, she said that she was leaving. She was unable to deal with the emotional and physical stress that being a cadet requires one to en­ dure. She didn't mention that of the 30 freshmen who would leave that first week she was the 25th, not the first and certainly not the only one. It is sad that when people think of her they won't think of her hard struggle to gain equal treat­ ment, but will concentrate on the human failings of someone who didn't receive humane treatment. Discrimination should not be state supported, An analogy of this putrid exer­ cise would be like going to the su­ permarket to buy a loaf of bread, then going home only to find the cashier there asking for more money because the price of bread had risen after you left the store. Stupid,' ing the 26 dollars for next semes­ ter, if I were told in advance of the raise. However, this new charge came as a surprise.

We're learning more every day about our new and expanded facility." Above the Cascades Cafe on the second floor is the Profile Trail Computer Lab, which makes computers on campus more convenient for students. It consists of 10 Power Macs and all of the software is on USER. The hours of the new lab are MondayThursday 8 a.m.-ll p.m., Friday 8 a.m.-4 p.m., closed on Saturdays, and Sunday 7 p.m.-ll p.m. Above the computer lab is Howard's Knob Patio. The patio serves as a place of tranquillity in the storm of classes. The patio overlooks campus, and students can take their lunch there to eat. However, smoking is not permitted on the patio or anywhere else in Plemmon's Student Union. This is due to bricks that are held to­ gether by a special epoxy that will melt if put in contact with a lit cigarette. It is also is hard to keep the white rocks clean when people are throwing their cigarette butts on them. Come by the new Student Union and see student money materialized. You will find it to be impressive and unique. Sophomore Courtney Gaillard said, "I'm im­ pressed because it is convenient and unlike any other building on campus." Interesting Facts about The Student Union It is one of the only buildings on campus that is run completely by tudents, Even the supervisors are students. The entire new addition - all $9.7 million worth - was built by student 3es only. No state taxes were used. Many of the rooms were designed by students from an interior 'esign class of the 1993-94 academic year. They contributed to what i brie was used, the selection of the furnitmandsorneofthe ccessories. All of the public rooms are named after features of the North 'arolina Mountains. In two months there will be a 24-hour study room located in the ppalachian Study Lounge next to the computer lab on the second oor.

(Photos by Toni Mazzaglia) Students volunteer for community Jennifer Almond Staff Writer Seventy-seven incoming Appalachian students devoted their time and energy to make the first ever New Student Orienta­ tion Community Service Project a rousing success. The project, sponsored and facilitated by members of Appalachian's sororities and fraternities, gave incoming students the opportunity to meet one another and familiarize themselves with volunteer pos­ sibilities in the area. Jim Street, director of phase two ori­ entation, said, "We had no idea what to expect. We were exited to see the number of students who wanted to participate and their level of excitement." On Aug. 22, the volunteers met in the Roan Mountain room in the new Plemmon's Student Union. They chose where they wished to work from five pos­ sible sites: Habitat for Humanity, Project on Aging, Watagua Youth Network, the Humane Society and the Hospitality House. Each site had two coordinators present from the Greek system. According to Street, each service project was a definite success, with all of the students coming together and work­ ing hard. Parker Henderson, who volunteered for Habitat for Humanity, liked the fact that volunteers worked side by side with the people for whom they were building the home. This is known as sweat equity. Sweat equity is when the family donates time and energy to help the volunteers build the family's new home. Teamwork and com­ munity is the focus of the exercise. "Ev­ eryone was working together well," said Henderson. The Watauga Youth Network helped clean up the grounds and trails around Appalachian. Emily King was a group leader for this project. According to King, "All of the students just mixed really well. The freshmen re­ ally benefited from it a lot. It helped them make new friends." The volunteers for the Project on Aging went to a house in Cove Creek and visited with an elderly lady while they washed her win­ dows. Group leader Mike Ellington, said, "This is a good op­ portunity for freshmen to come in and get in­ volved right away. get stud'entT^involved early in the Student community." Everyone returned at the end of the day for a dinner together and afterward, to listen to speakers discuss ways for stu­ dents to get involved on the campus of Appalachian. According to Street, this project got everyone off to a good start for this year. By introducing new students to the many aspects of life within their new commuv nity and acquainting them with other new students, the community and campus can benefit together. According to Street, volunteers are a vital and important part of our commu­ nity. The reward for volunteering is see­ ing the difference one can make in the community or in someone's life. "We will definitely do this again next year," said Jim Street. \ volunteers work with Joe and Donna Eller (middle) to build their new home during the Project.

Most bands that come out of the U.K. evoke the sounds of that hit it big in the 80's, like U2 and Depeche Mode. Often, music coming out of the islands sounds like feeble regurgitations of these past success stories. What a pleasant suprise to hear the new album from Tindersticks, a band which successfully breaks the mo­ notony. In August, this six-piece band released a highly anticipated followup to their 1993 debut. Their self-titled second album de­ livers the goods in a big way, pos­ sibly surpassing the rave reviews of their critically acclaimed debut. The band effectively executes a sound that could possibly be de­ scribed as alternative country. They mesh such diverse influences as country, folk, jazz, beat, 60s soundtracks, old radio commer­ cials and the gloom rock sound unique to England. The album itself paints a gloomy picture while avoiding ut­ ter depression. The eccentric qual­ ity of the music on tracks like "my sister" and the instrumental "vertrauen III" contrast with the lulling, pained voice of vocalist Stuart Staples. On the songs "a night in", "tiny tears", and "talk to me", Staples captures a vocal style reminiscent SCrA Cabinet Position Available If you want your hair to turn white then I've got the perfect helpful hint: go see "Lord of Illu­ sions".

Moore came to Appalachian State in '89 after a year as an asssistant coach at ie University of Arkansas. Before comig to Boone, Moore held two head coachg jobs at North Texas during the 1979 id 1980 seasons and at Texas Tech from >81-1985. In addition to those stints, he is also been an assistant with Hayden y at Southern Methodist University and ith Tom Osborne at Nebraska. During those years as a :ad coach and an assistant, |oore has also compiled an tremely impressive list of ist-season matchups iniding the Orange Bowl ('73 '79), Cotton Bowl ('66, '74, J'89), Sugar Bowl ('74), Fita Bowl ('75), Bluebonnet )wl ('68 & '76), Liberty >wl ('77), and four trips to e NCAA I-AA playoffs, inttiing a trip to last year's arterfinals. With experience like that, is not surprising that the o-time Southern Confer­ ee Coach-of-the-Year ('91 & 1) has compiled a record of 43-28 as a luntaineer. In Moore's seven seasons Appalachian, the Apps have been nanally ranked in the final polls four times d look to be well on their way this year, e Mountaineers are ranked third in the tion this preseason and, although >ore will not speculate, have a legiti­ me shot at the National Championship. Jerry Moore, and his wife Margaret, both graduates of Baylor University d have three children, Chris, Scott, and zabeth. Back on the field, Moore's team is gunig for the Southern Conference Chammship, and if they can once again beat irshall and Western Carolina, should be problem. Moore has never lost to WCU d has won three of the last four against trshall. Good luck Coach and keep up 2 good work. "Wehave a unique group of young men this year... we'll be ready to play." 'Jerry Moore (Photo by Shane Richardson) Last season, the Mountaineers did ev­ erything they were supposed to do in or­ der to beat Wake Forest - almost. The defense kept the Deacons out of the end zone. The offense jumped out to a 10-0 first half lead and racked up almost 300 yards. But a series of turnovers and four field goals by Wake kicker Bill Hol­ lows handed the 12-10 victory to the Deacs. This season, the Mountaineers return 18 starters from last year's squad, all of whom will wear the scars from that loss into Groves stadium as the two teams meet again Thursday. Look for Wake to come out and open things up offensively. "They run a Penn State 1-back set," remarked Mountaineer Head Coach Jerry Mooore. 'Their kids will play good." The single back offense will allow the Deacs more options on the passing game. This will test the young and inexperienced Mountaineer secondary. However, passing against the Appala­ chian defense poses a risk to the Deacons as the Mountaineers reached the oppos­ ing quarterback 51 times in 1994. This total includes 12 by returning defensive lineman Chip Miller and eight more by Dexter Coakley. Coach Jim Caldwell must also be ware of Matt Stevens, who set a Southern Conference record with 10 in­ terceptions in 1994. On th£"other side of the ball, the Apps have more to worry about than just the Wake Forest defense. A recent injury to Scott Satterfield on his throwing hand has left him listed as doubtful at press time. Signal calling duties now fall on the shoul­ ders of sophomore Gerard Hardy. "We're going to do the same things no matter who we've got back there (at quar­ terback)," mentioned Moore. This will no doubt include getting the ball to the backfield tandem of Aldwin Lance and Damon Scott. When Chip Hooks fell to injury last sea­ son, it was Lance and Scott who came to the rescue of the Mountaineers. Lance had a 205 yard rushing performance against Liberty and Scott had a 155 yard outing against Western Carolina the followir week. The Apps were able to move the b | effectively on the ground last seas against the Deacs, gaining 172 rushi I yards. The Mountaineer air attack wl only good for 124 yards in last season's contest. The passing game will have to improve for the Apps in order to avoid another second half let down. 4 tale of two quarterbacks ephen Hensley orts Editor The Appalachian State offense suffered najor set back last week when starting arterback Scott Satterfield recieved 20 ches in his throwing hand. The junior's ssible absence from the line-up will hurt team in a number of ways. Satterfield fourth in the Southern Conference in al offense last season with 2192 total "ds.

In the meantime, Gerard Hardy has n taking snaps with the first team in paration for Thursday's game. Hardy "ted two games as a freshman in 1993. ( Against The Citadel, Hardy rushed for 90 yards and threw for 141 more, earn­ ing conferenc'e Freshman of the Week honors. In Hardy's other start, he ran for 20 yards and passed for 55 more against East Tennessee State before be­ ing sidelined by a rib injury. Normally, a sophomore thrust into this situation would feel a lot of pres­ sure, but not so for Hardy. "Actually, I feel a little less pressure," reported the confident Hardy. "I've got a couple year's under my belt. Now I know what I'm looking for." Hardy, who was handling most of the punt return duties before shifting his focus to quarterback feels comfort­ able in the new role. "We'll stick with the same thing," Hardy mentions re­ garding the offensive scheme.The only differences he foresees is the possibil­ ity of running more play action and op­ tion plays to highlight his speed. With Satterfield healing quickly, it will only be a matter of time before he returns to the starting squad. However, until that time comes, the Mountain­ eer offense will be in very capable hands.

This has long been a favorite definition of sports, usually resurfacing time and again after one perceived di­ saster or another. When the 1989 World Series was interrupted by the Bay earth­ quake, some citizens questioned the relevance of a game in the midst of death and random de­ struction. National televi­ sion captured the actual moment of the biggest tremor. In the minutes following, it was easy to see that the 'quake had shattered the di­ visions between fans, play­ ers, coaches, and vendors. What baseball viewers wit­ nessed before the networks took over was a stadium full of people with fear in their eyes. The Series continued. But in the wake of the earth­ quake, as hundreds of thou­ sands began the job of cleaning up, victims and sympathizers alike Nowhere is the life analogy grumbled that the million-dollar more apparent than during discus­ athletes were still only miles away, sions of the various sports figures playing for a championship which we see and hear daily. had lost meaning.

Doc Gooden, the first pitcher ever to earn at least 200 strikeouts in each of his first three seasons, has disappeared over the horizon like a bright but dying comet. Drugs, three family deaths in a year's time (funny how his sorrows and joys seem to come in three's), and shoulder problems have com­ bined to crush the glory of a man who was on the verge of legend. Gooden's buddy, Darryl Straw­ berry, is struggling back into base­ ball after his own fights with substance abuse and tax evasion. Pitcher Steve Howe has been reinstated seven times (seven!), fol­ lowing the same number of drug test failures. There are others: Cinncinati owner Marge Schott. Retired football player Dexter Manly. And then there's always that guy named Orenthal James. For today, Mike Tyson might head this second list, although people sure don't speak of him in the same terms as other "fallen heroes". There's some sort of unspoken hope that Iron Mike was destined to return, to save an otherwise boring world of sports. Despite his rape conviction, he is discussed only in terms of who he'll fight next, or how good he could be after a handful of years in a correctional facility. The fan in you is excited to see the best fighter of our time in ac­ tion ... yet maybe the human be­ ing in you can see the danger of applauding men and women who act questionably toward others. Sometimes it's not enough to know how many homers so-andso has banged in, or what this guy is making in salary for 1995. Some­ times it IS to a fan's benefit, par­ ticularly a young fan, to know a little of the person inside the ath­ letic equipment. So who said sports always had to be spprting? A simple, meaningless game can draw thousands of people in a single direction, at least for a few hours. Start Earning Yours TODAYI - so everyday, taking us away from minor tragedies: car troubles, school, money, and a million other things common to us all. Maybe that's the rationalization. When we wrestle with such controversies (and, luckily, we aren't asked to face them too of­ ten), that phrase reclaims its mo­ ment on the lips of reporters and philosophizing coaches: "A micro­ cosm of life." Such a cliche. But sometimes cliches are true forever. i Ni t* j Top Ten Reasons To Attend The Performing Arts Series: APPALACHIAN STATE UNIVERSITY THURSDAY AUGUST 31,1995 4:00-6:00 PM WAKE S WAKE ASU SENIOR TAILGATE PARTY Featuring OJ Sage from 95.1 Edge Charlotte Available!!!

Their main concerns were the size of the building and the proximity to the dorms. Having the ACC at Sta­ dium Lot would have created an adverse traffic problem and no space to add on to the building existed, said Helm. According to Helm, Appa­ lachian was given the opportunity to buy the greenhouse on Rivers Street this summer. That land was purchased and it opened up more viable space. "The more we talked," said Helm, "pieces started open­ ing up." Helm said this new site was considered as a possible loca­ tion when talk of the ACC first began. The problem then was that Appalachian already had plans on the map for a new police annex building in that general area. The plans to build the annex there also changed this summer. Helm said all these issues allowed the new site to become a reality. wnen tms space openea up and began to be studied again, the main concerns left dealt with flood plain issues. A study was conducted by Ogden Environmental and Engi­ neering Services of Greensboro. Their report allows the planning of the ACC in that site to continue, said Helm. Helm said very few changes of their plans for the building will take place because of the move. The building will still be 200,000 square feet and will seat 10,000 people in the arena. "The architecture and height will be very similar." Helm said the cost for the . ACC will be the same at $30 mil­ lion. The state fully funded the money this summer. The remain­ ing $20.6 million will be given biannually. "We will bid in two parts to accept the facility," said Helm. The first part will be the site prepa­ ration, said Helm, since the sur­ rounding area will need to be ready before actual construction can begin. "We are very excited over the funding," said Helm. "We hope to open in three years." most freshmen take the same courses. This was accomplished by asking faculty to increase the number of sections they teach. Administrators decided to bal­ ance the increase of the freshman class by decreasing transfer stuent enrollment. Instead of 850 trans­ fers, as earlier planned, only 750 were accepted. The university also plans to cut back in the spring by again de­ creasing freshman and transfer Graphic Arts Assistant Needed If you have experience with Aldus Pagemaker, Photoshop and Macintosh computers in general, you are eligible to apply for the position of Graphic Arts Assistant.

These cutbacks are to ensure that the yearly growth of Appala­ chian only increases by between 50 and 100 students. "The low growth policy that ASU has had for the past 10 years is a good one," said Watts.

Although this can be a difficult and stressful task, the perfect employment opportunity is always within reach. Many new technologies, and even the old standbys, can be used in finding your area's most desirable jobs. College students are offered one of the most affordable and helpful re­ sources for their job hunt. Most colleges and universities offer job placement and career development opportunities. Not only can you set up interviews with com­ panies through this office, but they also offer other services. Sometimes they con­ duct resume writing seminars, host job fairs and have instructional classes on us­ ing the Internet. It is very important to check in to all of the options offered at your campus career development center. Some employ­ ers contact the university on recruiting missions. It is convenient to already have your resume on file at the career devel­ opment office - you never know who will get their hands on it! Another valuable resource is the classified section of the newspaper. Many job openings are listed under headings such as professional, automotive, account­ ing and health care. Watching the want ads may be time consuming, but it is a valuable tool for do-it-yourselfers. If you are looking to relocate, most major news­ papers can be found in the public library on a daily basis. Other publications to check are the magazines published by certain asso­ ciations and organizations. If you are looking for a job in public relations or writing, check Editor & Publisher, or Quill Magazine, put out by the Society of Pro­ fessional Journalists. There are usually lists of available positions and opportuni­ ties in the back. Each area of study has some sort of publication that is considered to be an authority. For more information and titles, call any public library. It is important to be careful when answering ads; some of them say "job list­ ing service" at the bottom in small print. These offers are through a job placement service and usually end up costing you money. Others require that you send your resume to a box at the newspaper. Job placement services are an al­ ternative to doing it yourself. There are many that are available to recent gradu­ ates and people who have been laid off or their positions eliminated. Careful re­ search is a must before you sign up with any specific service. A few things to ask when selecting a job service are: • Find out how much it will cost. Some services require a flat rate ($200$400), while some services are free of charge. These services charge companies that come to them looking for people to hire. In some instances, the companies pay the service to see the resumes. In other cases, the applicants pay the services to get their resume in the viewing file. • Ask how long your resume will stay in the service's records. Many ser­ vices will take your resume out of the file after six months, others after a year. Be sure to ask if you can resubmit your re­ sume when the time limit passes. • See if you are guaranteed a cer­ tain number of interviews, especially if you are paying a fee. • Ask if the service only offers outplacement services. Some services only work with people whose positions have been eliminated. These services are hired by companies who lay off people and then pay services to help their former employees find other jobs. • Inquire about the service's Internet capabilities. If you are wanting a job in another city, you need to find out if the service has the ability to get your resume out on the information highway. The Internet, a computer system that can be accessed from anywhere in the world, can be an extremely valuable tool in find­ ing jobs in other markets. Not only can job services have access to the Internet, but anyone with a computer modem can put his own resume out in the World Wide Web, a conglom­ Helpful addresses on the Intern et 1.

I instantly recognized the male spe­ their children might see on television. Unfortunately it is not that simple. There are problems with this legisla­ tion that should not be ignored. First of all, the V-chip bill advocates a form of censorship. Somebody, other than parents, will decide what programs are suitable for children to watch. For ex­ ample, an award-winning show like "ER" might be lumped with the no-brainer bi­ kini drama "Baywatch." If parents wanted to keep their kids from watching bad ac­ tors run around in skimpies for an hour, there is the possibility they may be cut­ ting out quality shows as well. Also, if a rating system were enacted, certain programs will likely lose advertis­ ing revenue based on what rating it re- ceived. This would give big companies too much control in deciding what the public watches on television. (It's not as if they do not have enough power already.) Producers would likely be forced to change the original content of a show, in order to get a more favorable rating, thereby increasing advertising revenue. The movie industry is a perfect ex­ ample of what is wrong with this. Many movie producers attempt to aim for a spe­ cific rating, based on which one they feel would make them the most money, often times cutting, rewording and distorting the original plot. Furthermore, when it comes to mak­ ing money most are conservative. Nobody wants to take chances where their money is concerned. If the ACME Tennis Shoe company wants to buy advertising space, they will likely seek the largest audience. If a show gets a rating that is likely to be blocked in some homes, it will have a smaller audience, and as a result receive less in revenue. All this will occur because of the decsion of a handful of people far removed from it all. Another fault with the legislation is that it asks everyone to buy a V-chip, whether they plan to use it or not. Ex­ perts in the manufacturing industry have stated that this modification would likely cost the consumer and additional $40 . Basically, some people will be forced to throw 40 bucks away. How would you like it if the govern­ ment forced you and everyone else in America to buy a vase everytime you bought flowers? Sounds pretty ridiculous, huh?

Besides, smoking Beware of sudden independence •Freshmen should be wary of their new freedoms Tim Nicholson Columnist College will get you if you don't watch out! Twelve years of public school can lead you over a cliff. You'd expect that school is school, right? No. The government forces you to go to high school. You go to college for yourself. That difference makes all the difference. I remember my first year of college. It was quite a shock. Freedom. My own decisions. I dropped out after three weeks and didn't even bother to withdraw until the last week of classes. Nobody cared, except my parents. It was not like high school. Twenty-five years later I tried again. I was ready this time. Learning skills fade, but motivation drives you. High school should prepare you for college, right? No, instead it takes away your personal moti­ vation. In college, you make the choices. If you don't know what you want to do, you'll be beat up and thrown away. They want you out. It's not like high school. High school should teach you bow to study, how to apply what you learn. It doesn't. Instead it teaches you to memo­ rize endless details and how to behave under lock and key. It should help you fig­ ure out what you want out of life and how to get it. It doesn't. It teaches you to con- I spent my first semester testing my inde­ pendence to see if it was real. It was. I ended up independent, homeless, and alone. It took me a year to adjust. It wasn't my fault. It wasn't anybody's fault, but the way things are in high school just makes it really hard in college. Stu­ dents expect the same old treatment. Pro­ fessors hate standing in front of a room­ ful of bored people who refuse to partici­ pate. They get angry and grade accord­ ingly. War breaks out, or should I say revo­ lution. But the students are supposed to get what they need to go ahead with life in the real world. That's what college fac­ ulty love to do - to give you real help. It makes them happy. The very first day of registration a stu­ dents feels the pressure - at the same time we get our first taste of freedom and self. We need more preparation or a period of readjustment.

Parents and teachers mean well by instilling obedience, but they don't seem very excited about building self- motivation. Only a complete change and a chance to experience the demands of real life can overcome the cattle drive men­ tality of the school system. A year off as part of the cur­ riculum seems pretty drastic, but school comes from "schola," which means leisure and which Aristotle called the beginning of all accom­ plishment. And look at the statis­ tics. At Appalachian in 1991, 14 percent of students dropped out after one year, another 13 percent after two, and only another 4 per­ cent after three. The ones who waited until the second year to quit should have made the decision Smokin Joe ' continued from page 5 strict prohibition. No more smokes... supposedly." "It did have some good points," I said. "I got a great deal on my new house due to the new anti-smoking laws. North Caro­ lina filed for bankruptcy and 1 bought the Governor's Mansion in Raleigh for nearly nothing." I couldn't believe my eyes at what happened next. Joe actually pulled out a cigarette and lit it up right in front of me. My National Enquirer fell to the concrete, and my jaw hung open. "That's illegal!" I said. "It's a federal offense! You could go to jail if they catch you with just one!" "Yes sir," he retorted in a puff of gray-blue smoke. "It's my own little way of still protesting that smoking is an individual's choice. And I am certainly not influenced by ads, with or without pictures." "I'm impressed; it shows that you're committed to the true American way... more so than me." Joe puffed away. With each cloud of carbon monoxide his buxom blonde companion got more excited, giggling and twitch­ ing even more than Marilyn ever could have managed. He leaned in close to me and spoke again. "I know who you are, too. I understand that it may be hard for you to find your true self again." "Actually," he continued, "it's a shame your rep got damaged at all. The reason Clinton waged war on us was my fault. I knew some­ thing about Whitewater and he had to shut me up, and take away my credibility. What better way to do that than put the blame of the plague of the 20th century on me. 'Just like us, he knew smok­ ing didn't hurt anyone. Did you ever hear of him quitting his ci­ gars? It was all a bunch... all a bunch... (cough, cough)... a bunch of..." With that one emphasemic last breath, Joe was dead. His body lay on the ground outside a con­ venience mart, once his hall of fame. His beautiful blonde stood over him, dumbfounded. His pub­ licist, who had been pumping gas into Joe's limo, ran over to his side. And I, seeing the antique pack of cigarettes in the inside pocket of his leather jacket, leaned down and collected them. I.examined the pack artwork and surgeon generals warning. I pulled one of the contents out and eyed the white, tobacco filled cyl­ inder. I slipped it between my lips, feeling the firm filter. I dropped my slurpie and stood silently. "Do you smoke?" asked the blonde. That's when I made up my mind not to follow the advice of bureaucrats telling me what was best for myself. I would stand up once more for my personal lib­ erty... even if it killed me. "Of course I smoke," I said. "I'm the Marlboro Man!" With a giggle she stepped over Joe's lifeless humps and took my arm. I lit up with my almost rusted over Zippo, and we turned to­ wards my car - the Skoal Bandit Winston Cup car, which I bought for $300 when Stock Car racing died because it had no sponsor. I need to get back to the real rea­ sons I'm writing this, to help freshmen make the best out of college for themselves, not to go through what I did. I was 43 when I finally mus­ tered the courage to finish my education, to finally make some- earlier. The few who lasted until the third year probably had spe­ cial situations. These figures mean real lives damaged as well as the waste of society's resources. Then, consider the way the learning en­ vironment suffers from the stu­ dents who don't want to be there in class. School, which seeks to help us ends up wasting huge resources and driving stu­ dents at the peak of life into a deep, almost inescap­ able rut. And with the way the world is going, it won t take many more lemming steps to send us all over the cliff of human extinction. Fact. We need people with their own new per­ spectives, motivation and ideas. School should be the answer. Still, much depends on your point of view. If you know what you want to do and you're looking for help, college is a gold mine! But I look around at both stu­ dents and professors. The war qui­ etly rages. Sad, but it really does. Why? First, because12 years of cap­ tivity and fol­ lowing the lemmings leads to blindness and resentment; second because professors are really there to help, not to be w a r d e n s . Crossed pur­ poses.

You are no longer in a ftrt of your parents' house - seize le opportunity to explore your fecorative self! For a one-time investment of lider $100, you can convert your land flat into an expressive, eyeItching environment that will imress your friends and make life bet-1 r for you. Here are some easy, afrdable ideas that can make all the ifference. Everything listed is available stores such as Lowe's Hardware, K-Mart, Rose's, but be sure to shop around for e best deal. Also, remember that the niest abrasions in the walls will look like eteor craters to your landlord, so either ok up some adhesive hangers or consider tending some of your deposit - the crelive freedom you will have may just be I orth it. It is a good idea to have a budget lid plan on spending a certain amount jepending upon your desired level of scoration. While these ideas are relavely cheap, you may want to go in with Hpur roommates on certain items. Keep mind that not only will you enjoy your corations all year, but you will also have em forever and can use them later on your next setup. Since space is always a concern, makthe most of what precious little you've t is extremely important. Shelves are the perfect way to do this. A bookcase, entertainment center or small storage unit from Lowe's Hardware will do the trick. Your stuff will be moved upward rather than outward and will be kept organized within sight rather than jammed in your closet (which is too small anyway). I rec­ ommend investing in custom-cut white wire shelves. They are good for things like speakers or towels, are cheap and can be mounted anywhere. Another way to create space is with You are no longer in a part of your parent's house seize the opportunity to explore your decorative self. mirrors. They add dimension, come in many sizes and are usually priced for un­ der $10. Try placing them on doors, in the bathroom, in corners or in rows for a window-like effect. You'll be instantly amazed at how they brighten and enlarge an area. You can't go wrong with mirrors - the more, the better. If you want more light, but aren't big on mirrors, invest in a lamp or two. For around $20, you can have some variety of adjustable lamps from K-mart that will brighten up a corner or desk. Lighting directs the eye to otherwise unnoticed areas, thus creating the feel of a larger environment. For the more adventurous, Lowe's Hardware has a good selection of mountable track and fluorescent lights that plug directly into wall sockets (you'll need extension cords for these). In De­ cember, be sure to check out K-Mart for $1 strands of Christmas lights in all colors (or shop at Christmas theme stores year- round). They are great for ceilings, edges of walls, and poster borders. Since posters are a must for college students (it's in our DNA), don't miss the poster sales on campus. The selec­ tion is enormous, and even the smallest print will say some­ thing about your personality. You can also have color pho­ tocopies made of artworks from books in the library. Even though frames are some­ times pricy, they can really glamorize posters. A good way to get nicer frames is at stores like Rose's, K-Mart or other smaller shops that sell nondescript landscape-type pictures. For around $10-15, you can buy a wooden frame with glass, lose the lame pic­ ture inside and replace it with a poster, color copy or even an advertisement from some styl­ ish magazine. To dress up a simple frame, you can get precut mats at many department stores, or even do one your­ self with painted cardboard. Try neon spray paint from the grocery or hardware store. If Fixtures of your own choice are another way to in­ ject some of your personality into your pad. You can easily replace those ordinary electric socket covers, light switch cov­ ers and other things like closet door handles with funky colored or an­ matching curtains, rugs and some throw pillows will really appeal to your human tique-like ones from Lowe's Hardware. Chances are that you have blinds over need for order. You can also freak out your windows.

As with evschool year, a number of pitfalls and zards await the returning student body, pfyfhe such hazard that should not be overpked this year is the need for renter's jsurance, otherwise known as Tenant ] )meowner's Insurance. In 1994, fires accounted for $42,700 damages in the Boone area, approxiately $3000 of which were in residence I ills on campus. These numbers do not | fleet the problems students run into as i result of water damage or theft. These j e all problems students tend to ignore, it ignoring these possibilities can be di1 strous. Tenant Homowner's Insurance is the fety net many students need to replace iluables or , in certain cases, find a new j ace to live. According to Margaret McCoy, an inrance agent for Cameron M. Harris & ). of Boone, "This type of policy is ofn the only saving grace to an entirely iserable situation." Such policies are relatively cheap, sting anywhere between $119 yearly in s city limit to $179 yearly outside the y limit. While such policies are affordle, students may find them difficult to 'tain . Some insurance companies avoid inring college students due to their age d the prevalence of theft among roomstes. McCoy says that with perseverance, idents can find a company to >ure them, but they must follow a few nple rules. First, apply for a policy individually, mpanies will not insure two or more ople together unless they are related, is means that if your apartment was stroyed in a fire and you were insured rsonally, you would be covered and your ommates would be at a loss. Second, make sure you list all of your I assets, and take pictures of your belong­ ings and share them with your agent. This is very significant since it will be the only way an agency can decide how much to award you in damages. Also, should you have objects of sig­ nificance like baseball cards or heirlooms, ing to McCoy, "I've seen cases where pipes burst in one apartment and caused the surrounding apartments to be evacuated." There is still the question of whether or not students need this type of protec­ tion. This is not always the case, says Dr. David Wood, director of the Brandy Risk and Insur­ ance Center at Appala­ chian State University. Students living in dorms and apartments are typi­ cally covered on their parents'policy." In such cases, knownas "relative resident" cases, the stu­ dent, regardless of age, can 1.

McCoy says such policies often property is in any residence occupied by the cover up to 10 percent of the parents policy. employed. As far as students living in dorms, the university does not have a policy cov­ ering personal property damage and according to Wood, "They do not need one." Since most students 1. $200 on money; bank notes are covered already, it 2. $1000 on securities, accounts and deeds, letters of credit would not be "cost effec­ tive" to have such a policy, says Wood. 3. $1000 on watercraft, including their trailers, furnishings The student who usually and equipment needs a Tenant Homeowner's Insurance $1000 on trailers not used with watercraft policy is the older student who has lived apart from 5. $1000 on grave markers parents for awhile and is not considered a depen­ 6. $1000 for loss by theft dent.

Movie review This game is over Steven Mackay Reporter The folks in Hollywood have gotten themselves into another bad habit. These new screw-ups are movies based on video games. "Super Mario Broth ers," "Double Dragon" and "Street Fighter' all bombed big time. The newest entry into this would-be genre is "Mortal Kombat," a martial-arts flick based on the controversial game that is chock full of graphic violence. Since this movie is rated PG - 13 (to get kids into the the­ ater), the flying blood, guts and limbs, have all been nixed for flying...SWEAT!! And to think, I wanted to see some guy get his lungs ripped out through his trou sers. The plotline is bizarre. A mysteri­ ous god-like emperor from another di­ mension orders a giant martial-arts com­ petition between his followers and a group of mortals on Earth. If the Earth lings loose, the emperor takes over the world. If the Earthlings win, he has to try again in 20 years. Lost? I'm not done yet. The emperor's main stooge is a powerful sorcerer (played by Cary - Hiroyuki Tagawa) who owns real - estate on Earth. So, the big Mortal Kombat competition is held.on his own really cool Pacific island. The main human "Kombatants" are made up of an egotistical martial-arts ac­ tor (Linda Ashby), a stubborn "G.I. Jane" (Bridgette Wilson), and the blood thirsty brother (Robin Shou). Our three heroes are advised by an­ other sorcerer (Christopher Lambert) from Earth who knows all about this tak­ ing over the world stuff. This guy is re­ ally important because every time he so much as completes a sentence, a burst of thunder and lightening erupts. Director Paul Anderson brings a much needed tongue - in - cheek take to the movie. Apparently even he knows the whole thing is ridiculous. The only other fun thing in this movie is the opening credits.

In 1995 the Mountaineers return eight offene starters and nine defensive starters, includthree Ail-Americans. The offensive unit will lead by returning quarterback Scott Satterfield, o passed for 1,609 yards and eight touchdowns d ran for another 583 yards and 10 TD's.

Headlining the defensive are three returning Ail-Americans, lineman ip Miller, linebacker Dexter Coakley, and defene back Matt Stevens. Miller tied a school record season with 12 sacks, and also had 70 tackles I The nationally-ranked Mountaineers, led by Scott Satterfield, look to be a powerhouse in the Southern Conference.

Coakley was named Southern Conference Defensive Player-of-the-Year last season as a sophomore, compiling 155 tackles, eight sacks, and seven caused fumbles. Stevens set a school record in 1994 with 10 interceptions, and also added 75 tackles and 14 deflections. Also returning to the defensive unit are lineback­ ers Joe DiBemardo, who led the 1994 Mountaineers with 161 stops (second in the conference) and Brian Jean-Mary, defensive backs Jamie Coleman and Tony Perry, who added five and two interceptions, respec­ tively. Joining Miller on the line are Shawn Elliot, Mark Ivey, Jason Hatcher, and Jackie Avery. Appalachian's defense will keep many an offensive coordinator up late on Fridays this year. Another aspect that should help the Mountaineers this year is their kicking game. Both Allen Guinn, punter, and Jay Sutton, place-kicker, are back from last season. Guinn averaged 39 yards on 65 punts last season with a long of 58 and placed the ball in­ side the 20 yard line 20 times. Guinn finished ranked 11th in the nation. Sutton led the team in scoring last season with 78 points. Sutton was 42-43 on PAT's and 12-17 on field goals, with his longest from 41 yards. "Everything has been positive this preseason and all indications are that we have a good football team, but we have to keep our players healthy. We have a lot of starters returning, but you have to have good chemistry also, and so far I think we have the poten­ tial to do very well," commented Head Football Coach Jerry Moore. "We are looking forward to the Wake game this year. It is always a good rivalry and they should be better this year than they were last year. It is always nice to play an ACC team and we hope it will be a good football game." The Apps will first take the field on August 31 at Wake Forest. This is a rare Thursday night game. The Mountaineers will also play two televised games, October 14 versus Georgia Southern in Boone, and a week later at Marshall. Both of those games will air on SportSouth and game times are 4 p.m. and 7 p.m. respectively.

(File p h o t o . ) Lady Apps: Stickin' it to 'em in 1995 Hensley -rts Editor The Appalachian State field hockey im will start their 1995 campaign on g- 29 as they host a scrimmage against tawba. The Lady Mountaineers open : regular season with a Sept. 3 contest Duke. The club will then embark on the t of their 15 game regular season and a ee-game Deep South Tournament. Coach Cathy Burleson returns for her ninth season as the head of the field hockey program at Appalachian. Burleson and her squad will compete in the Deep South Field Hockey Association. This or­ ganization includes teams from Catawba, Davidson, and St. Louis. Last season, the Lady Apps struggled to a 2-17 overall record last season, in­ cluding a 0-8 record on the road. How­ ever, one of the two victories came against Virginia Tech in the Deep South Tourna­ ment. Barry Clyatt led the way for the Lady Apps, starting all 19 contests and leading the team in shots, goals, and assists. Clyatt had five of the team's 16 goals in 1994. Elana Moore and Heather Templeton both had three goals apiece. Ingrid Stansberg was in goal most of the time for the Lady Mountaineers. In her 16 games, she had 247 saves compared to only 49 goals allowed. Stansberg also kept the team's lone shutout. With the beginning of a new school year also comes the beginning of many sports seasons. This year the Lady spikers are looking forward to improving on an incredible 1994 outing where they finished undefeated in the Southern Conference and advanced to the NCAA tourney. Last year the L.idy spikers finished with a record of 30-6 overall and 14-0 in con­ ference piay. Tney Drougni nome tne Southern Conference Championship and advanced to the opening round of the NCAA's where they lost to Georgia.. The team has several returning play­ ers from last year's impressive group. Se­ nior starters returning this year are Amy Kolomechuk, Sheri Leverette, Miriam Sealeyand Kathy Granack. The one re­ turning junior starter is April Sorrells. These players will not only bring talent, but experience to the team as well. Other key returnees are sophomores Erica Bahry and Jennifer Rumfeldt. The team may rely on their returning starters, but they will have help from four key newcomers. This year's new editions are Paula Levey, Kari Ann Overholt, Shea Thompson, and Stephanie Young. The team will be led this year by coach Dave Markland. This season will be Coach Markland's fourth season with Appala­ chian State. In his previous three seasons he has compiled a record of 82-29. Markland will be assisted by Heidi McElhaney, who is returning to the team this year not as a player, but as an assis­ tant coach. Her invaluable experience should help bring more success to the team. The Lady Mountaineers will begin their season with a two day tournament on Sept. 1 and 2 in Columbia, SC. The South Carolina Tournament will include teams from Xavier, Nichols State, Alabama- Bir­ mingham, and South Carolina. The Lady Apps will be home on Sept. 5 for the an­ nual Black and Gold match before com­ peting in the Virginia Tech tournament. North Carolina-Greensboro will be the first opponent to take on the Lady Moun­ taineers when they step into Varsity Gym on Sept. 13. This should be the start of another impressive season for Appala­ chian. The Lady Mountaineers hope to improve on last season's record. (File photo.) �The Appalachian. Th„rsdav 2 Harriers to defend crown Stephen Hensley Sports Editor Last season was a mixed bag for the Appalachian State men's soccer team. The squad suffered tough losses at the hands of ACC powerhouses North Carolina and Wake Forest and staggered to a 19-2 road record, but bounced back to post a winning record in the Southern Conference with a mark of 3-2-1 in conference play. The Mountaineer attack last season was spearheaded by Jay Lane, who led the Apps in almost every offensive category. Lane took 50 shots in 1994, connect­ ing for 17 goals, including game winners against Davidson, Vir­ ginia Military, and The Citadel. Jason Hockstra took care of most of the goal keeping duties, logging 1,920 minutes between the pipes for the Mountaineers. In that time he accumulated 107 saves, kept two shut outs, and allowe^onl^3goals MattMcKenzie Reporter The Appalachian State men's and women's cross country teams open their 1995 seasons with a home invitational at Kidd-Brewer Stadium on September 2. Both teams will be striving to capture the Southern Conference Cham­ pionship in the fall. The men's team will try to top last season, in which the squad won the Southern Conference Championship and qualified for the NCAA Division I National Championship. The team fin­ ished ranked 20th overall in the NCAA final standings. The harriers, coached by John Weaver, lost three out of their top six runners, but retain Southern Conference runner of the year Tom Holland and freshman of the year Seth Peoples. "Whenever you lose three out of your top six, you certainly won't be able to finish as good but we do have two prom­ ising freshman in Will Dickerson, who was the South Carolina run­ ner of the year and also Ian Finn," said Weaver. After the home invitational, the team travels to Raleigh and then Auburn, Alabama before the Na­ tional Invitational at Penn State. Next month the team will try to repeat their first place Southern Conference finish at Greenville, SC. The women's team, also coached by Weaver, have a young team with only one senior, Suzanne Black and seven fresh­ men. The team finished fourth in the conference last season. "The team is rebuilding, but they are already looking better than they did last year," said Weaver. The women's team schedule is well-traveled, with the team go­ ing to Maryland and Raleigh be­ fore invitationals at Virginia Tech and Furman. The next stop is the Southern Conference Champion­ ship and then the NCAA District III Championship, both held in Greenville, NC.

Some of us laughed when the news struck that professional bas­ ketball could be facing a lockout at season's start in November. But reality began to set in. We remem­ bered last year's baseball strike. There were the problems of the National Hockey League. That was when realization dawned: why should the National Basketball Association be any dif­ ferent than any other sports league? For the true, hardcore NBA fan, the possibility of a dispute between players and owners seemed sur­ real. This is a league which is stuffed with some of the world's best athletes. It's a league which knows how to market - they've got commercials with breathtaking highlights, indoor fireworks and laser shows, and cherubic mascots for the kids in all of us. Not to men­ The Appalachian, Thursd, ay 24 tion that you couldn't walk down most streets in this country with­ out seeing NBA merchandise on somebody's person. This is the league which, over the last 15 years or so, has been slowly edging baseball aside as America's first love. Doubt it? Check baseball's attendance since the major leaguers have returned. But the reason is obvious as to the drain of support in baseball. Even those with limited knowl­ edge of the sports world know that everyone involved screwed up. It's old news. When you depend on a lot of other people for your liveli­ hood (and in what job is this NOT true, really?), it's smarter some­ times to put yourself on the shelf and return a little of that support. Hopefully, as the NBA's partici­ pants and shareholders gather to talk things over this week, August 12, 1994 won't be far from their thoughts. It's hard to imagine Shaq and Patrick Ewing facing off before a stadium filled to a quarter capac­ ity. But a delay of play when the regular season begins could help that scenario. A fan who knows he's taken for granted is a fan who might just stay home. FREQUENT FLYER The free agent in sports is a strange breed, so to speak. If he's talented, he can pick and choose the team to which he will pledge his allegiance. Money, location, and money again are usually the factors deciding just where he'll play. Deion Sanders, football and baseball player extraordinare, is probably the most famous of the species. No other man can capture so much attention simply by an­ nouncing that he's available. The Dallas Cowboys seem to be the closest to signing Prime Time, and for months the general agreement has been that Sanders will put a genuine contender over the top. We heard the same thing last Appalachian State University 1995 Volleyball Schedule The Appalachian wishes all ASU teams luck for the 1995-1996 season. worst? Free agency destroys teams; we see this in baseball con­ tinually. The Pittsburgh Pirates of the early 1990s were The Squad for a few seasons. Eventually the marquee players (Barry Bonds, Doug Drabek, Bobby Bonilla) were offered tickets out of town, headed to greener pastures. Those role players who remained were picked from Pittsburgh as more time passed. This trend repeats itself as surely as the mail comes (some­ times faster). In the '90s alone, baseball's Toronto BlueJays, football's Philadelphia Eagles and Dallas Cowboys, and basketball's Cleveland Cavaliers have fallen victim to the cycle. Only the At­ lanta Braves seem immune so far, and a season or two more of regu­ lar season dominance/playoff fu­ tility will mean the end for them, too. The NFLs Cowboys haven't really tumbled yet - some smart moves in the office have k in the upper echelon g, treading water. The idea of domina, like the Boston Celtics 0f or the Yankees of roughly, time, who are always in tion, is not something f everyone wishes. it's • watching a team grow ft to year, and being ab]e pace with who's on wh might actually form the st base which every sports c tion craves.

Whether Sanders can impact a team to such an effect is still ques­ tionable. But it's also irrelevant. The people in control think he can work the same magic he did in San Francisco last year, and that's all that matters. Of everyone in sports, perhaps only Michael Jordan could more quickly spark a league-wide scramble over the rights to his body. Sanders thrives off of adversity, as do so many of the people who are among the best at what they do. He likes to be doubted; he loves it when he's in a situation where he is pressured and chal­ lenged. Skipping from town to town, leaving a trail of champion­ ship banners and confetti on the city avenue, is probably a fantasy of his. Could it be, though, that such freedom to follow the green has changed things, maybe for the An,§11 TWO • WORLDS • DIVERS 4^ e E Did you get shut out of the Scuba class this semester?

The Apps take on three teams in the Southern Conference hat have been nationally ranked in the NCAA Div. I-AA polls. The team also plays out of the confer­ ence against Wake Forest and Div. II Edinboro who posted a 7-3 record last season. The first game for the Moun­ taineers is in Winston-Salem against the Demon Deacons of Wake Forest. This annual rivalry, which is anticipated as much as a social event as a sporting event to the casual fan will have a deeper meaning to Coach Jeriy Moore and his troops. The meeting provides an opportunity for the Apps to avenge the heart-breaking 12-10 defeat at the hands of the Deacons last season. The home opener for the Mountaineers will come Sept. 9 against Edinboro. The Fighting Scots will get to taste a bit of Boone's night life as the game is set to kick-off at 7 p.m. Edinboro is returning 16 starters from last season's squad that outscored their opponents 367-207 in 1994. t Revenge will be on the mind of North Carolina A&T when they face off with the Mountaineers on Sept. 16. The Aggies took a 45-0 schellacking at Kidd Brewer Sta­ dium last season and hope to gain back some pride this season in Greensboro. The East Tennessee State Buc­ caneers come to town Oct.1 as the Southern Conference opener for the Apps. ETSU brings with them an explosive offense that averaged over 400 yards per game last sea­ son. However, in the last encoun­ ter between the two clubs, the Bucs were held to 28 yards rush­ ing. The Mountaineers meet Furman on Oct. 7. The Paladins are coming off of a tough season and are in the process of rebuilding. The Apps defeated Furman 30-6 last season, but with the game in Greenville this year, anything is possible. Georgia Southern is next on the slate for the Mountaineers. In 1994, the Apps rallied from behind but fell just short, losing 34-31 in" Statesboro, GA. This game will be a big one for both squads and will televised regionally on SportSouth. The Mountaineers will follow that important game with the most important game of the season. Marshall and Appalachian should be battling for position at the top of the I-AA polls when the two meet on Oct. 21. The Thundering Herd will remember the goal posts coming down after their loss here last season. Look for this one to decide the Southern Conference champion. The University of TennesseeChattanooga Moccasins will be this year's opponent for Homecom­ ing. The Mocs were 3-8 last sea­ son, including a 28-54 loss to Steve McNair and Alcorn State. On Nov. 4, the Mountaineers will travel to Lexington, VA to take on the Keydets of Virginia Mili­ tary. The 26-23 overtime defeat at the hands of VMI at the end of the regular season took both the Southern Conference crown and home field playoff advantage away from the Apps. Appalachian's regular season home finale will come against Western Carolina on Nov. 11. In last year's contest, the Mountain­ eers pulled out a 12-7 victory. This year looks to be another defensive battle. The last game of the regular season will be against The Citadel. The Cadets compiled a 6-5 record last season and gained 436 yards per game.

Appalachian business graduates earned the gold medal for the highest score on the North Carolina Certified Pub­ lic Accounting exam seven times, which is twice the amount of gold medals re­ ceived by students at any other school from May 1984 to May 1994. Dr. Randy K. Edwards, chair of the accounting department, says that Ap­ palachian offers three courses, that are built into the curriculum, which prepare students for the CPA exam. The profes­ sional exam preparation course, an au­ diting course and a law course are all in­ cluded in the curriculum. At many other schools, students must take those courses outside of school. There are currently students from 15 colleges and universities enrolled in Appalachian's Masters in Accounting program. "Most have heard about our CPA exam results and that's why they're here," said Edwards. Dr. Edwards also attributes stu­ dent success on the CPA exam to Dr. Raymond L. Larson, who teaches the pro­ fessional exam preparation course. "He not only teaches the stu­ dents the material, he is a very motiva­ tional person. He teaches them to build in a regular exercise and rest schedule as part of their exam preparation,' said Edwards.

"An entrepreneur is one who or­ ganizes, manages and assumes the risks of a business or franchise," said Spencer.

Since that incident, several threats have been made nationwide, putting a scare into many. Boone has been no exception, as a threat was made to two fed­ eral buildings on Tuesday. The downtown post office and the Wa­ tauga County Courthouse both re­ ceived threatening calls, warning employees to "take this call seri­ ously." Both messages were identical. According to Boone Post Office supervisor Joseph Catohe and Wa­ tauga County Clerk of Court Glenn Hodges, the caller was a male who said, 'Take this call seriously. A bomb is set to go off in the Court House and the Post Office between 10 (a.m.) and 1 (p.m.)." Authorities were notified and both buildings were evacuated until after 1:30 p.m. No bomb or related equipment was found. No one has been arrested in re­ lation to the crime.

A representative from the office of university advance­ ment said that if another group made a bid to buy the land, they did not know whether the money would go to the effort or not. SGA was the vehicle for ACES, and two of the major sup­ porters were SGA President and Vice President Elect Darby Weaver and Robyn Martin. "We have no specific plans for another proposal... if anyone in senate wishes to bring it up, however, that's their right," said Weaver. "It's a slow time for us, others are very active. But we are going to have to ultimately put all of our resources together to be successful," Schofield said. The two groups still active with the cause are having trouble working together. Schofield said that the problems were mainly "philosophical differences" such as who will own and control the land after it is acquired, and where the money should come from. "We are looking at ways in which we can combine our ef­ forts in order to save Howard's Knob. The future of the mountain rests in our ability to find a collec­ tive track," said Schofield. He went on to say, "It's reasonable that on an issue of such emotion that people are going to l__l 1—\SUPERB CHINESE CUISINE OPEN 7 DAYS A WEEK • TAKE OUT AV/AILADLE 1 Surprise your folks.

Monte Green, the current owner of Howard's Knob, now has permits for the development of the south side of Howard's Knob, the site overlooking Boone that will be for his own home. Schofield is sure the time to come to a solution is now, but the active fund raising for the effort is com­ ing through the WHCLT. Earth Day was this past week, and WHCLT took the oppor­ tunity to put on a concert in order to raise money for the effort. As far as Schofield's plans and in­ volvement, he simply said, "Noth­ ing concrete has arisen." Regardless of which camp is raising money, no national or local source of funding has been identified. The Trust for Public Land is still showing interest in assisting the effort, but cannot solely fund the purchase. As far as the high public­ ity of the movement during ACES, and the lack of publicity now, Schofield attributes that to the timeliness of ACES. He still be­ lieves there are plenty of support­ ers, they're only taking a break. "The heart of the movement is alive, but the body could use some rest," Schofield said.

First and foremost the staff would like to thank our readers. Your input and feed­ back have been appreciated. Yes, even the criticism has been taken to heart. Though there have been differences in opinion, we always welcomed the forum. We would especially like to thank those of you who wrote in this year. The Opinion Page was set up in the fall so our readers would have a "direct line" to the newspaper. While many may not agree with what we printed on the Editorial Page, the content of the Opinion Page has been dictated by you, our readers. The staff thanks David "Freebird" Freeman for just being an advisor. While he ultimately has no control over what we do, say, write or print, he has lent an ear to many a problem, and offered sound ad­ vice on each occasion. The staff would also like to thank those who have provided us with count­ less hours of entertainment: I J.D. Adams A.RRS. Francis T. Borkowski Hunter Schofield Bob Snead Sports Information Roy Tugman WASU Finally, the four departing members of the staff thank the rest of the staff for all their hard work. You have all done your jobs, and done them well. And some­ how, amid all the stress, controversy and late nights, you remained sane. We're not sure whether to offer next year's staff congratulations or condo­ lences, but if next year's staff proves to be as dedicated and steadfast as this year's staff, we guess we'll offer congratulations. Good luck guys. Alas, no matter what I do to ignore it, [ the end of the semester is upon me, and I can stand no chance of escaping the in­ evitable step towards my senior year, and | the consequences thereof. Though I did almost everything to pre­ vent it my freshman ————— year, I am more than likely going to gradu­ ate in four years. For those of us on the fouryear plan, the junior year summer is usu­ ally the last summer where at the end, we go back to school. This has set me to thinking about this "real" life business I keep hear­ ing about. I cannot imagine next year when, after some paltry attempt at exam taking is done, I will have to buck up, and try to find a niche in society where no one will notice that secretly, I am a moron and can make no real contribution. But after I graduate, what does one do, exactly? Does one have to immedi­ ately mimic "Thirtysomething" or can one stay in the "Saved by the Bell" stage for awhile? Many manage to avoid the real world, yet keep from being a complete slacker by going to graduate school. This grow­ ing tendency would be my definite plan, except I hear they look at grades. And even if I have the grades, you generally have to know what you want to study be­ fore they let you attend. I don't know about graduate school, but I would rather not put my knowledge of the English language to use trying to guile some old lady into buying a McJordan special in­ stead of just a glass of water. I guess what I am getting at is, to quote "Cheers": "Mak­ ing the way in the world today takes ev­ erything you've got..." and more of us are not quite ready to jump straight into the fiasco. Exactly how long can one have fun, be un— committed, and watch the Animaniacs before people look at you funny? When does college life end and the "real" life begin? I know I'll have friends jumping into that whole worthwhile lifestyle thing, get­ ting married, and actually starting to plan something before they do it. But I fear that while they are anticipating having their first child, I'll be eagerly awaiting the fourth Batman movie.

You might call ASU a melting pot of sorts as well. Almost 13,000 people have convened in a small town called Boone to exchange ideas and learn from each other. College students have very impressionable minds. College is a time to take a close look at our views on things like the opposite race, sex, or religion. It is vital that we pay close attention to what we allow ourselves to believe. It is interesting and often discourag­ ing to find out the conceptions we have of each other. I have met people who view members of the opposite race in a very negative way. Their views are not shaped from experiences they have had but from what they have been taught in their homes, schools, and communities. I would like to think that the things from racism, sexism, and a loss of mor­ that can be learned outside of the class­ als. It must stop somewhere and some­ room at ASU could change these negative time. Why not now with those who hold views.

To the Editor: We have written this letter in response to issues brought up by Chancellor Borkowski at the fac­ ulty and staff meeting on April 5. As you may know, Governor Hunt's proposed budget for the fiscal year 1995-1996 would cut ASUs budget by $1.2 million. In addition, he has proposed a tu­ ition increase of 3.1%. These proposed cuts and tu­ ition increases are based in part on the public and legislative per­ ception that higher education does not provide services that are worth the investment. The chan­ cellor indicated that the public and the state legislature want greater accountability from higher education. One of the ways that many measure success is the ability of students to obtain secure, wellpaying jobs. One might argue that an ideal function of higher education is to provide an oppor­ tunity for intellectual growth and development for all- rather than to provide job training for some. That issue is not our main con­ cern in this letter. Our main ob­ jection is that higher education cannot be held accountable for the inability of our economy to provide secure, well-paying jobs for all. If jobs are not there, cut­ ting the resource base of higher education won't produce them. In fact, cutting the resource base makes it less likely that we'll be able to effectively train students for the jobs that are available. If you agree with these ideas, please let your legislator know that you think cutting the re­ source base for higher education is not an effective solution to the problems facing our society. Kelly Steele Bob Murray Melissa Barth Matt Rowe Nick Biddle Mary Connell Lynn Getz Marilyn Smith Howard Neufeld Barbara Yale-Reed Letters to the Editor Student: Save $ for Knob • It does take some sacrifice To the Editor: I'm a writer, not a very good one, but I'm young and intend to improve. Another of my goals is to attend the Lewis and Clark School of Environmental Law in Portland, Oregon. I love the woods and always will. It was largely on long soli­ tary backpacking trips as a teen that I felt most comfortable and came to understand myself. Ac­ cordingly, deforestation is not something I can take lightly, even if it involves uprooting a tree to build my own house. It is interesting that while by my gross estimation, the students who want to save Howard's Knob number perhaps 1500 to 2000, they don't have the money to buy the land they want. If they aver­ aged as much as I have given to the Nature Conservancy over the past few years, they would easily have more than enough to buy Howard's Knob, or any other proxi­ mate knob they may inadvertendy feel they can't live without. And honestly, my savings methods, though sincere, are not that much to write home about. Here's how it works: I try to take at least one evening per month where I pretty much abstain from drinking and philandering and then donate the proceeds to the Nature Conservancy. While that's not a lot, it adds up. And the opportunity cost is not so, great. I try to find some­ thing to do with myself to kill time. Sometimes I study that evening, or talk with friends. Once I remem­ ber I read a book...well...part of a book. But you get my point. Anyway, the thing is, it's not so bad. If I can do it, then surely anyone of you can, too. But please don't put me on a pedestal, unless, of course, you all insist upon my use as a figurehead; I only lift up my habits before you as a peda­ gogical tool. You take it and do with it as God directs you, and from that I can hardly complain.

I am honored to have served in this position. As I leave Appalachian in May, I will take with me the satisfaction of know­ ing that many accomplishments have been made over the past two years. I am especially proud of the establishment of a tuition-on-installment plan, the implementa­ tion of free and confidential AIDS testing, and the recent successful "Into the Streets" campaign fol­ lowed by "Spring Fling." Along with these achieve­ ments, I want to acknowledge the outstanding work of Jane Mclntyre, SGA vice president, and the entire SGA Cabinet. These in­ dividuals have been the backbone of SGA this year and I am proud to have worked with all of them. The student senate should also be recognized for its many hours of hard work. On May 4, Darby Weaver and Robyn Martin will assume the du­ ties of SGA President and Vice President. I am confident that these two women will serve well in their new roles. I would encour­ age the student body to support their many outstanding ideas and to offer input throughout the en­ tire year. Again, thank you for allowing me to serve as your representative over the past two years. I am hon­ ored to have worked with, and for, the most outstanding students in the University of North Carolina system. J.D.

And whatever happens, never lose confidence in yourself. During the Raleigh trip, one of my kids from the special education group told me that he could teach the class better then me. So, one day that next week, Ken got to teach the class for a bit. He was quite nervous, because he stutters, but he did a very good job, con­ sidering his audience. He has done so much better since then ... so perhaps one person can make a difference. I'd like to believe so.

Thursday 27 April 1995 Page 7 J\n Appalachian year in pictures This year has been a very eventful one, filled with heated debates, highlycontested elections, construction galore and many magnificent speakers and programs. While some events were merely following traditions, others were brand new events unique to 1994-1995. The photos on these two pages speak volumes about our litttle corner of the world, but a little information has been added to refresh any faded memories. It may not all have been fun, but it was never boring! Appalachian fans (left) showed their support in an incredible year of football. Packed stands and waving flags gave the football team the boost it needed to shine. Students in the technology department showed their skills as they built a real igloo and actually slept in it overnight (below left). One of the biggest issues on the Appalachian campus this year was the Appalachian Community Environmental Stewardship (ACES) fee. The Appalachian sponsored a debate January 24 in the Hawksbill Pub (below right). A sizeable turnout gave students the chance to learn about both sides of the issue, as SGA president J.D. Adams (left) and SGA senator Greg McClure (right) presented their cases. " Construction may have been the only constant thing on campus. The expansion of Newland Hall is moving right along (left), while the new part of the Student Union is almost complete. When the Student Union is opened, there will be meeting rooms, a weight and aerobics room, a 24-hour computer lab and the Cascades Cafe to look forward to. The tradition continued this year with the Chancellor for a Day activity. Senior Meredith Gruber got to perform the Chancellor s duties for a day, while Dr. Borkowski was able to act as a student for the day. Borkowski's classes included the bowling class in which there was a tournament (above). �The Appalachian, Thursday 27 ^ WELCOMfSI Every year a new group of freshmen is welcomed into the Appalachian family. A sign (above) makes new students feel at home. Construction was not limited to main campus. An upperclass student moves his belongings into the new Appalachian Heights apartments (right). Fans stormed the field (left) after ASU's victory over Marshall in the first night game played at Appalachian in 14 years. Shortly after this photo was taken, crazed fans tore down the goal post and took it on a "victory run" around campus and downtown, where some damage was done to cars parked along the road. The little journey ended up costing the university about $2,000Several students were arrested. The goal post's final resting place was the duck pond in front of Trivette Hall. Senior business major Emily Baker (right) was crowned this year's Homecoming Queen at the halftime ceremonies of the game Appalachian played against Liberty. Baker was sponsored by her sorority, Delta Zeta, and was escorted at the ceremony by her mother. Diversity was the key word this year, and Appalachian was at the forefront in getting quality programs for African American History Month. This was, by far, one of the most eventful and educational African American History Months in the history of Appalachian State University. Native African music (above) was brought to campus, and was enjoyed by the many students who were able to attend the performance. One of the more famous names to appear on our campus was Dr. Betty Shabazz (right), the widow ofMalcom X. Shabazz has her doctorate degree in education and spoke on civil rights. Spring Fling, (above) sponsored by SGA, was one of the more popular outdoor events of the season, drawing crowds of spectators and participants alike. In this photo, two students wearing heavilypadded Sumo wrestling garb compete on the mat. Other activities included a human velcro wall and the gyro-sphere. One of the things students here at Appalachian look forward to most is the fall season, when colorful leaves abound. Students revel in the beauty of the color, and let their childhood urges to play in piles of leaves come to the forefront. - -'-2 it*/#* I ;l i mitmxMi *. f* 4* A**** * J—. ;+••.'$ .& J ¥4 * * * X * • «»/*«•<•• jo*»4:*•; '<;••*«»» *»•« 2*«22:2k *. ><«!../<,//*» *•»»#*• A tt2.1.SIvaS �alachian Thursday 27 April 1995 Page 9 Appalachian Food Services |995 SPRING FINAL EXAM HOimsWELBORN CAFETERIA MAY 5 & 8 Regular Hours Closes for semester MAY 9 at 2:00 pm The Appalachian Comic/ S vP AEAL W OP NLD $< JaY KOA/STA^AR/S PARK PLAGE CAFE MAY 5-11 Regular Hours Closes for semester MAY 12 at 2:00 pm FOOD COURT MAY 5-9 Regular Hours MAY 10- 12 8:00 am - 11:30 pm MAY 13 8:00 am - 10:30 pm MAY 14 8:00 am - 5:00 pm GOLD ROOM MAY 5 & 8 Regular Hours Closes for semester MAY 8 at 7:30 pm CASCADES CAFE Open Summer 1995 THE PIZZERIA MAY 5, MAY 7-11 Regular Hours Closes for semester MAY 11 at Midnight THE MARKET MAY 5, MAY 8-11 10 am - Midnight MAY 6 & 7 5 pm - Midnight Closes for semester MAY 12 at 5 pm TEXTBOOK BUYBAGK Get CASH For Your Used Textbooks!

The fans rushed the field. The goal posts came down. The Appalachian State football team beat the number one team in Divi­ sion I-A in front of 19,468 people. The 1994 season was a special one for Coach Jerry Moore and his Mountaineers. Picked to finish in the middle of the pack, the Apps went 9-4 overall and 6-2 in the Southern Conference. The Mountaineers blistered their opposition and spent most of the season near the top of the Div. I-A polls. The scene was set for another South­ ern Conference crown and a home field play-off game. Then, the unthinkable happened. Vir­ ginia Military, who had not even came close to a victory, came in and defeated the Apps 26-23 in overtime. The game sent the Mountaineers on the road for the play­ offs and put the only blemish on an other­ wise magnificent season. In the post-season, the Apps got back on track and defeated a tough New Hamp­ shire team on their home turf in another overtime thriller. From there, the Moun­ taineers headed to Idaho to take on the Boise State Mustangs and their royal blue turf. The Apps played tough, but Boise State proved to be a bit too much that day as they escaped with a 17-14 win. The Mountaineers were strong on both Fans rush the field after the Apps defeated Marshall, (file photo) sides of the ball last season. Offensively, the Apps were blessed to have two tal­ ented quarterbacks that shared time un­ der center. Andy Arnold and Scott Satterfield combined for over 2,000 yards passing in 1994. Satterfield, who got most of the snaps later on in the season, had eight touchdown passes and was third on the team in rushing with 583 yards. The backfield trio of Chip Hooks, Damon Scott, and Aldwin Lance served as the core of the ground attack for the Mountaineers. The three combined for over 1,800 yards rushing and 18 touch­ downs. Furthermore, if one went down with an injury, the coaching staff had real flexibility in finding a suitable substitute. Don Blue and Otis Smith provided the main targets for the passing game, catch­ ing 66 passes for 974 yards between them. Defensively, the Mountaineers thrived. The Apps held their opponents to just over spikersrip through S.C. Kevin Robinson Sealey, and Amy Kolomechuk are juniors, and Cindy Kolomechuk is a freshman. The 1994 season was the second un- der coach Dave Markland. In his second campaign, Markland went 25-13. His career record is 52-23. Very much like the men's wrestling team, Appalachian's men's soccer team fin­ ished strong in a disappointing season. The soccer team faced stiff competition all season long against the likes of nation­ ally ranked North Carolina, Wake Forest, UNC-Greensboro, Clemson...and the list goes on. Despite their overall record, the Mountaineers finished up the season with a 3-2-1 Southern Conference record, and barely lost the Southern Conference Tour­ nament Championship to Furman in over­ time. Looking forward to next season, the Apps will return a large number of their players and will continue to play top com­ 1st season a success Darryl Stevens Staff Writer see Soccer page The lady mountaineer volleyball team traveled undefeated through the conference schedule, (file photo) Men's kickers look to future Reporter 16 points per game. Super sophomore Dexter Coakley patrolled Kidd Brewer Stadium from his linebacker position, making 155 tackles and eight monstrous sacks. Joey DiBernardo, William Peebles, and Chip Miller took care of the defensive front, allowing only 165 yards of offense per game. Matt Stevens had a team high ten interceptions as the anchor of the defensive secondary. Heading into their first Southern Con­ ference tournament, the Appalachian State women's soccer team faced the chal­ lenge of regular season champion Davidson in Greensboro, N.C. In a pair of previous matches, the Wildcats had beaten ASU by the com­ bined count of 11 to two. The Lady Moun­ taineers ignored history and played Davidson to a scoreless tie through regu­ lation, despite 23 shots on the goal, be­ fore falling 2-0 in overtime. Appalachian State's inaugural 3-12-0 record belies the season's bright spots, such as goalkeeper Kelly Guinn's trio of shutouts. Guinn's 15 saves in consecutive wins versus Georgia Southern and Furman helped earn App's first two victories of The Appalachian State's women's vol­ leyball team had a hugely successful sea­ son this fall. They went 30-6 overall, 14-0 in the Southern Conference. They were 9-0 at home, 13-5 away, and 8-1at neutral sites. The Mountaineers won the Southern Conference tournament and beat Towson State in the NCAA play-in round. They lost to Georgia in the first round of the NCAA tournament. They won 16 games in a row from Sept. 13 to Oct. 23, including victories over East Carolina, UNC-Wilmington, N.C. State and UT-Chattanooga. David Willis y Special to the Appalachian App Senior Heidi McElhaney led the team with 517 kills and 46 service aces in 131 games. She had a .286 kill percentage. Junior Kathy Granack had an unbeliev­ able 1281 assists in 111 games, averaging 11.54 per game. The Lady Apps won 13 of their matches in straight games. Their losses came to UNC-Greensboro, Central Florida, Clemson, UNC, UNCC, and Georgia. McElhaney is the only senior on the team, so next year should be just as pro­ ductive as this one was. Granack, Miriam harriers run with histor Stephen Hensley Reporter I Appalachian petition in their quest to become a na­ tional contender. "We have several players coming back with a lot of experience. We have had a good deal of success the past few seasons in the South­ ern Confer­ ence tourna­ ment. Our players are optimistic about next season, but they also know that they have a lot of work to do. Our recruiting is still going on and we should have everything wrapped up by the end of May. We ended the season third in the conference and on a positive note, so that should carry over into next year. Right now we are focus­ ing on the future and what it will take to get us there," said Head Coach Art Rex. Another key factor that could help the Apps next sea­ son is the addition of the new astroturf on the field. The new turf should help slow the game down a bit. "The past few years have been like playing on asphalt," said Coach Rex. The Mountaineers look to improve upon their record next season and hope­ fully come out with the Southern Confer­ ence crown. "Right now we are focusing on the future and what it will take to get us there." Sports Editor The 1994 season was a difficult one for Appalachian's field hockey team. The season started on Sept. 3 with a 3-1 loss at home to Davidson. The season ended on Nov. 6 with a 3-0 win over Virginia Tech in the Deep South Tournament. The 64 days between those games had to be some of the longest days in the lives of the young women who make up ASU's Field Hockey team. After the season opening loss to Davidson, the team lost the next day to James Madison in a 14-0 shellacking. The lady Apps were not able to right their ship until Oct. 26 when by a 3-0 tally Catawba became ASU's first victim.

However, amidst the losses, McClendon was putting together a stellar senior season. Averaging 18.4 points a game and over 10 rebounds per contest, McClendon was on his way to a spot on the All-Southern Conference team and consideration for conference player-of-the-year. The play of the senior seemed to spark the rest of the team. Braswell took over the role of the floor general, leading the team in assists and minutes played. The freshmen stepped up as each mem­ ber of the recruiting class got his turn in the starting line-up. The conference schedule was a heartbreaker for the Mountain­ eers. Seven of the 14 games were decided by six points or less. The close losses added up for the Apps , as the team ended the regular season with a 7-19 overall mark. In the Southern Conference tournament, however, things turned around. After a victory over Furman in the play-in game, the Mountaineers shocked Marshall in the quarter finals. Outstanding play by the entire team had the Apps poised for a run at the title. Stephen Hensley Assistant Sports Editor Complete domination. Since 1985, the women's track program at Appalachian State has won 23 of 27 possible Southern Confer­ ence championships. Within that span, the team has captured five "Triple Crowns," winning cross country, indoor track, and outdoor track, in the same season. In 1995, however, things began to slip a bit. In cross country, The Lady Mountaineers finished a dissappointing fourth. Dawn Wehrenburg led the team with a fourth place finish in the confer­ ence. Jannica Hjertzman also per­ formed well and just missed allconference honors. The indoor season was to fol­ low and again the Lady Apps fell short of expectations. A mishap by Beth Burleson in the hurdles, along with other mental miscues dropped the team to third place overall. Things turned around for the team, however, as the competition moved outdoors. With the bitter Chad McClendon puts up stellar numbers in final campaign. (file photoj The Cinderella run ended at the hands of Western Carolina in the semis. The game ended the season, but not the hopes of the Mountaineers, who proved that the bottom of the standings was not where they intended to stay. losses in the other events behind them, the Ladt Mountaineers moved ahead with new intensity. The outdoor track title the only acceptable goal for the team. As Coach John Weaver put it, 'The ladies would just not be denied." After successful meets against top teams like nationally ranked North Carolina, the Lady Apps re­ turned home to compete against Duke, NC State, and Virginia Tech in a home meet at Kidd Brewer Stadium. The Lady Mountaineers blew away the competition and looked to be in good shape for the Southern Conference meet that loomed ahead. Once in Huntington, WV for the conference championships, the la­ dies called their own team meet­ ings to stress to each athlete the importance of the meet. When the team hit the track, it was strictly business. After being down slightly after the first day, the Lady Apps came roaring back to pass East Tennessee State and win the soutnern conrerence nue. ine win, which was the ninth straight outdoor title in a row, proved not only that the Appalachian State women's track program could still compete, but it could still excell. The Appalachian Sports staff would like to thank Appalachian's coaches, Mark Dreibelbis and Roachel Laney for all their help this year.

A f t e r being to an impressive 8-1 record during the first month of 1995, the Mountaineers found that even the slightest slip can open the door for opportunist. One week after E the Gamecock loss, eventual con­ ference tournament champ Furman beat App for the second time this year - the start of the three-game conference skid which would allow the Lady Paladins, ETSU and Georgia Southern to pass ASU in the standings. In her second year, center Andreia Hinton found a comfort zone on the basketball court after enduring knee surgery off-season. The Rocky Mount native led the Appalachian State women's bas­ ketball team in scoring and re­ bounding, including a career-high 28 points at East Tennessee State as the regular season trickled away. The tandem of Hinton and rising soph Tiana Tate is as impos­ ing as any frontcourt in the con­ ference. Also poised to return for next season is a lineup strong enough to run opposing Southern Confer­ ence teams into the hardwood. Even as the 1995-96 edition adjusts to the loss of guard Beth Kilby's long-range shooting, Coach Robinson (four wins away from 300 career victories) can look for­ ward to solid leadership. Steady contributor Maaret Artosalo joins Melissa Davis and Merideth Thompson as mainstays on Robinson's 1996 Mountaineers. Point guard Shannon Spencer, ver­ satile forward Karolina Karlqvist, and reserves Leigh Jones and LaTonya Brown acheive senior sta­ tus, forming the nucleus to a squad that has the potential to take ASU's first conference championship since 1991. The Appalachian State baseball team had a disappointing season, going 17-28. Bad luck was the story of the year, as the Mountaineers lost 8 one-run games and 3 tworun games. The team scored 6.5 runs per game, but their opponents aver­ aged 7.6 per outing. The ASU de­ fense also commited more than two errors per game. The season was highlighted by wins over Georgia Southern, The Citadel, East Tennessee State, Western Carolina, a season sweep of Furman, and a 26-3 hammer­ ing of NC A&T. But the Mountaineers were only able to win more than two games in a row once all season, and they lost consecutive games continued from page 10 nine times. Track Grapplers take conference crown David Willis Reporter The Appalachian State wres­ ting team finished strong in an otherwise disappointing season. At the beginning of the year, it looked as if ASU would have its tast team in the past several years, but then disaster struck. Everyone fln the team seemed to get hurt. Six wrestlers were lost to seasonending injuries, and the two re­ turning grapplers who wrestled in Ae NCAA tournament last season a'so missed a couple months of Motion. Everyone was left wonder­ ing exactly what had happened? 1' The Mountaineers had a tough time early in the season, but there Were some bright spots, such as senior Mike Orris, junior Duke "Howell, and sophomore Brad Hinn, who all had outstanding sea­ sons. But just as everything looked bleak, the Apps came away with a ,Very good showing at the Virginia ^uals, defeating nationally ranked '^lemson 22-19. From then on, eyerything just seemed to click. Apps finished their last seven batches 5-1-1. Everyone was back, Though not completely healthy, ' aitd the Mountaineers were poised to make a run at the Southern Conference Title. And that s ex­ actly what they did. Appalachian sent sue grapplers to the conference championship matches and came with a tie for the Southern Conference Title with VMI and three wrestlers headed to the NCAA Tournament. For the second straight year, ASU had a trio competing in the na­ tional tournament. Senior Mike Orris and Juniors Seth Myerson and Duke Howell all made the trip, but came away disappointed. Head Wrestling Coach Paul Mance said, "We were pleased with the way things ended. The team came together and were able to pull of the Conference Champi­ onship. "We are now looking forward to next year," he said. "We have five or six new kids coming in, in­ cluding a couple of state champi­ ons and a couple of transfers. This should be our best recruiting class in 8-10 years. We are still recruit­ ing, looking for more depth. Hope­ fully next year we can stay healthy." Add those newcomers to the seven returning starters and Appa­ lachian should be a force to be reckoned with. If a couple of the new guys can fill some holes in the starting line-up, Appalachian could be a nationally ranked team. Kevin Robinson Reporter strated, they did not. The track team decisively beat the confer­ ence and took home not only the indoor title, but the 'Triple Crown' title of consecutive cross country, indoor and outdoor track South­ ern Conference titles. Never be­ fore in the Southern Conference has a program been so dominant over the course of a year. During the season, Rich Grant once again qualified for NCAA na­ tionals in the hammer throw, and a number of others hope to still qualify in the late season. Those include Chris Huffsticklerfa 1994 steeplechase qualifier), Holland in the 5000m, and Miesch in the 10,000m. While the '94-'95 season has been a pioneering one, the pro­ gram can only hope to improve on its outstanding achievements. As Coach Fereshetian notes, "While we are losing a number of significant talents to graduation, we also have a number coming in, and a great bunch still here. I can only hope that our younger stu­ dent-athletes will learn from the excellent examples that our seniors have set. I can honestly say that I've never been so proud of a single group of athletes as I am of this year's 'Triple Crown' group." Be sure to watch the '95-'96 sea­ son as the squad attempts to bet­ ter itself as a nationally renown program. Jason Crews was the bright spot on the pitching staff. He ended the season with a 6-4 record and a 4.58 ERA. He pitched in 18 games and started 10, ending with three complete games. Crews gave up 39 earned runs in 76 innings, and struck out 48 batters. Phil Falco finished 2-1 with a 2.93 ERA, lowest on the team. He threw 43 innings in 20 games, al­ lowing only 14 earned runs and striking out 37. The ASU pitching staff com­ bined for a 6.69 ERA. They gave up 274 earned runs in 375 innings pitched. They walked 223 and struck out 235. Shane Owenby led the Moun­ taineers on the offensive side with a .329 batting average. He had 22 doubles, five home runs, and 34 RBIs for the season. Owenby also had a .398 on-base percentage. Scott Musgrave also had an impressive season at the plate, with a .315 batting average. He had only 20 strikeouts in 130 at bats, plus 24 runs and 17 RBIs. Senior Scott McDaniel added a .312 batting average. He had 12 doubles and three home runs. He scored 37 runs and knocked in 26 RBIs. He led the team in walks with 38 and stolen bases with 10. Brent Payton led the team in home runs (10) and RBIs (44). He had seven stolen bases and a .520 slugging percentage. The baseball team should im­ prove next year. Their only big losses are McDaniel and Matt Russell. Owenby, Musgrave, Payton, Crews, Falco, pitcher Garth Armstrong and infielder Tim Puscian are all juniors. Scott Garrett, Will Reeves, and D.J. French are sophomores. Brett and Michael Berrier and pitcher Stephen Fisher are freshmen. If not for all the one and tworun losses, the team could have had a winning record. Maybe next year.

Awash in mediocrity Stephen Hensley Assistant Sports Editor The Lady Mountaineer golf team, under Coach Bill Dicus, had a big feat ahead of them. After being beaten soundly by Furman in the inaugural Southern Confer­ ence women's golf tournament, the Lady Apps had to find away to retain their second place standing in the conference while finding a way to close the gap on the Lady Paladins. The season began with an unscored meet in Bermuda over spring break. When the Lady Apps returned, it was off to William and Mary to participate in the William and Mary Invitational. The team finished fifth out of six teams. Meridyth Stanley led the way with a tenth place finish. Meryll McElwain got a top 20 finish with her 18th place showing. On April 2-4, The Lady Moun­ taineers went to Durham to play in the Duke Spring Invitational. The team struggled and finished as the last of the 17 teams. McElwain was the low score for the Lady Apps with a 256 over three rounds.

More good news for the team is that Jason Smith, who was forced to sit the year out due to Weather hampers women's tennis Akram Barghothi Sports Editor Like most of the spring sports at Appalachian, women's tennis struggled through the spring sea­ son. Women's tennis was affected by the same weather-related situ­ ation. Due to the weather in Boone, which is worse in the late winter and early spring, and the lack of any indoor practice facili­ ties, the women team started the season cold. The team struggles in the early portion of the season, with some exceptional individual perfor­ mances from Alice Heidgerd and Amy Parille. The two had the strongest individual performances of anyone on the team. Heidgerd and Parille also teamed up to be a very successful doubles tandem. The two seemed to feed off each other, raising the level of performance from the other. The rest of the team also played well, but the team did suffer form an inability to play well as a team. Many matches were lost by the closest of margins because the team could not pick up the doubles points, or they dropped just one singles match. Fortunately for the team, they will have several returnees form this year's campaign. With the im­ portant experience gained in the '95 season, the Appalachian women's tennis team should have a strong foundation for the future. academic problems, is slated to return. Smith and the recruiting class will join the team for action in next year's season. Among the players who are ex­ pected to make major contribu­ tions are Drew Taylor, Brooks Turner, Jeff Waltzer, and David Goodman. Of those four, Goodman, a freshman, was the only player who played consistently. Goodman led the team is scoring in three tour­ naments. Young lead the team in the others.

While many look at this year's playoffs as the biggest challenge for America's most-loved athlete, I say these people are wrong. Jor­ dan missed his greatest challengehe should have stuck around to see if he and the Bulls could have won a fourth, fifth, sixth, or whatever consecutive championship. Yes- Jordan should have never retired. After he did, he should have waited until the beginning of an NBA season, and made a real comeback. My only hope is that the Hornets defeat the Bulls in the first round of the playoffs, ripping off Jordan of the time he cherishes the most.

Thaw Out, a party organized by Sigma Phi Epsilon and Kappa Sigma fra­ ternities, will take place on April 29 at Horn in the West amphitheater. Proceeds from the event will ben­ efit OASIS, Inc., a domestic violence and rape crisis intervention service, the Boone Police Department's Special Olympics Fund and Hickory Ridge Homestead, the organization that owns Horn in the West. "It's just a good way for fraterni­ ties to show that college kids can produce something good for the community," said Jeff Sopel, the Sigma Phi Epsilon who is helping coordinate the event. Sopel estimated that there would be a donation of $3,500 to OASIS and $500-$l,000 to the Boone Police Special Olympics Fund. Donations to Hickory Ridge Homestead will depend on the amount taken in from the event. The exact amount of the dona­ tions will be decided after the fraternities cover their expenses for the event. Sopel said that the two fraterni­ ties do maintenance work at Horn in the West in exchange for the use of the grounds.

While The Ap­ palachian staff feels a new gymnasium is needed, it's time to apply the brakes on the project. The gymnasium is not a priority. In the past, the argument was that if we have the money for the ACC, and it cannot be spent anywhere else, let's go ahead and get it while we can. But things have changed and the like­ lihood that we will get the money is slim. Before the university puts any more time or money into the ACC, we need to wait and see if we're even going to get the rest of the funding from the General Assem­ bly. With the current assembly, it is doubt­ ful that they will approve the money needed to complete the project. Even if Appalachian was assured of the money, the choice of the stadium park­ ing lot as the ACC's site requires a slower approach. Construction in the stadium lot would strip the university of its largest campus parking lot. This compounds the already collosal parking problem. Plus, we've al­ ready lost the Stansbury lot to construc­ tion on the academic support building. This brings up another point- con­ struction. There's simply too much going on at one time. Let's wait until some of these other projects are completed before embarking on a project as large as the ACC. Appalachian needs the ACC. The uni­ versity will grow over the next couple of decades and the ACC will provide a place for sports, classrooms and cultural events. However, Appalachian does not need the ACC now. Right now, it is a distraction from the many other, more pressing issues facing Appalachian. Appalachian is already facing budget cuts, a parking crisis, and delays in cur­ rent construction projects. Now is simply not the time to start yet another big project such as the ACC. The Appalachian will publish its last issue of the semester on Thursday, April 27. Publication will resume in August. The Appalachian is published every friesday and Thursday of the academic year, with the exceptions of selected holidays and breaks. The Appalachian welcomes letters to the editor. These should be typed, double-spaced, and include the authors name, address, phone number and campus affiliation, if any. Un­ signed letters will not be published. The Ap­ palachian reserves the right to decline publi­ cation of any letter or to edit letters for the purpose of space or clarity. Letters should be delivered to the second floor of the student union, or mailed to: Editor, The Appalachian, ASU Box 9025, Boone, NC 28608.

Many of the Earth-faithful held rallies, handed us all pamphlets explaining that the brick should go in the toilet tank, not the bowl itself, and attended that '90's equivalent of the protest demonstration, a rock concert. However, now that Earth Day 1995 has come and gone, most of us slip back into old habits, forgetting to shred those six-pack rings and neglecting our duty to scatter the dryer lint for nestbuilding birds. While Earth Day does serve to heighten awareness of impending envi­ ronmental disasters, very few productive plans of action are hatched as a result of its existence. Most are rarely imple­ mented because they are usually thought If you can't make the rally trip... up by a practical, analytical scientist. they're boring.

His strategy worked as he barrelled down the last straight five meters ahead of second to win in 1:52.8. Including the other scoring points from John Moss, fourth in the high jump and Eric Hart in the discus, ASU was behind VMI going into the 5000m. Despite a point deficit, assistant Todd Walter still said "It's looking good, really good." He knew that ASU held consummate strength in the 5000m and would not be beaten at their own game. Indeed, Todd was right, as the ASU dis­ tance corps paraded around the track in first through fourth fashion. Brian Miesch and Tom Holland crossed the line together 14:49, with Brian being given the win. In suit, was freshman Seth Peoples and John Crumbliss in third and fourth respectively. Fereshetian on the 5000m; "It was re­ ally fitting that the 5k guys 'drove the last nail into the coffin' so to speak. They've really been out there all year, doing the same thing over and over, beating the con­ ference opposition." App's outdoor win can only be de­ scribed as a fitting cap to a quintessential year for the runners, throwers, and jump­ ers. Winning the "Triple Crown" after it eluded them by one half point the prior year, made '95s victory that much sweeter. As Captain Alan Whicker said after con­ cluding his five year as an App track and cross country member, "I can't think of a better way for this year's team to go out."

Darryl Stevens Staff Writer Appalachian s women's track team soared to the Southern Conference title. The team bounced back from its disappointing indoor preformace to capture the conference championship, (file photo) Stephen Hensley Assistant Sports Editor The Appalachian State women's track team traveled to Huntington, West Vir­ ginia over the weekend to participate in the Southern Conference outdoor track championships. The Lady Mountaineers went into the contest as the defending champion and the winner of eight straight conference titles. Make that nine. The Lady Apps came from behind to overtake East Tennessee State and Western Caro­ lina for the 1995 Southern Conference crown. Appalachian entered the meet with something to prove after finishing fourth in cross country and third in the indoor season. "It is always great to come back after you lose," remarked Coach John Weaver. "It was definitely a very sweet win for us." On the first day of competition, things started out slowly for the Lady Mountain­ eers as they found themselves tied for fourth place behind Furman, East Tennes­ see and Western Carolina. The only bright spot for Appalachian was a third place fin­ ish by Nikki Harris in the long jump. However, as the second day of compe­ tition began, the Lady Apps took all three of the top spots in the javelin to pull close to the leaders. Rachel Olander won the event with a throw of 40.32 meters. The toss was a personal best for Olander and one of twelve personal bests set by Appa­ lachian athletes during the meet. Erica Bahry and Michelle Wright took second and third respectively in the event. Cindy Miner took second in the high jump with a leap of 1.68 meters. Beth Burleson had a personal best as she fin­ ished fifth. Senior Precious Quire came through in her final outdoor meet as she won the triple jump, reaching a distance of 12.43 meters. Harris took second place with her jump of 11.81 meters. Jenny Chase took third in the 1,500 meters while the duo of Trice Roundtree and Beth Burleson finished first and third Katrina in the 100 meter hurdles. Lee, Tonie Lazembie , and Precious Quire took second, third, and fifth respectively in the 100 meters. Burleson set a personal mark in the 400 meter hurdles wth a time of 62.36, a time good enough to take the event. Charlotte Redden took fourth and freshman Tera Pits set a personal record in her sixth place finish. Tricia Roundtree shocked the field as she won the 100 meter hurdles with a time of 14.57. Lee struck again in the 200 meter as her personal best time of 24.53 was good enough to win the event. Southern Conference Coach-of-theyear Weaver gave much of the credit to hs seniors,"They were not going to be de­ nied." Five seniors set personal mark at the event as they ended their careers at Appalachian with an undefeated record against all Southern Conference competi­ tion.

Anyone who questions the old addage that a tour­ nament is a second season ought to ask men's tennis coach Mike Kernodle, or any member of the squad. The team went to Asheville for the tournament just two games above .500 with an 11-9 regular season mark. Another addage is going into post-season play can allow you to through the record out the window. That's just what the Men's team did, en route to their second place finish in the Southern Conference. The last addage of the day is no one Lopes remembers who finishes second. This one might not be true, like the 11-9 record throw threw its win out the window. Kernodle for one will remember, heck he will savor, this second place finish for a long time. "Sec­ ond overall is the highest finish since I've been here, its been a long time since the team has done this well" said Kernodle. The Mountaineers arrived at second place by outstanding play in the first round. The Mountaineers won every singles match in the first round and two of three doubles matches. The first round wins included some of the most impres­ sive of the year. ItayShimony defeated Georgia Southern's Berry Johonsson, at the three seed, 3-6, 6-3, 6-3.

The resolution was have a required annual fee of $48 for nlty to use the Quinn Center. All de-1 ndents of the faculty member would j charged an additinal $48. Adams | d this cost is very reasonable considng the cost of other health clubs is ise to $25-30 a month. He said the | ident fee wouldn't change and the tin purpose would be to help level off| ident fees. Many of the faculty seante1 :mbers were against the idea. "It's shing us into a confrontation with idents," said Howard Dorgan, faculty| nate member. Dorgan said he does ink student fees are too high, but that| is isn't the way to solve the problem, le faculty senate voted and struck | wn SGA's resolution. Allison Pennell Reporter Jane Helm, vice chancellor of business affairs, and several memers of the Appalachian Convocation Center com­ mittee shared the most recent drawings of the ACC and answered questions at the faculty senate meeting on April 10. The academic areas will be incor­ porated with the athletic areas of the building, said Helm. The height of the center will be slightly shorter than Bowie Residence Hall. Hakan-Corley Association, the architect, is planning to dig into the as­ phalt before beginning construction of the building. Helm said the purpose of dig­ ging underground is to limit the height of the ACC. The beginning date of construc­ tion will depend upon the approval of the General Assembly and when Appalachian gets the funding, said Clyde Robbins, as­ sociate vice chancellor of the physical plant. "If we had the funding now, it (the ACC) could be completed in three years," said Robbins. The main concerns the faculty senate had about the ACC was its size and the proximity to the surrounding dorms. Robbins said the issue of Stadium Parking Lot being the site for the ACC is 90 percent definite. "We've done studies and it is the only logical site," said Robbins. He also said the closest that one part of the building could possibly be to the dorms is 40 feet because of fire regu­ lations. "The closest we would come would be around 60 feet," said Robbins. "It will be a positive and a nega­ tive," Helm said. "It is convenient, but it is right in your living room." Helm said there will be a nega­ tive no matter where the center is built. It needs to be close enough for students who will be using the academic area to be able to get to other classes, Helm said. Dr. Howard Dorgan, professor of communications and member of faculty senate, said that he doesn't see how the ACC will benefit the rest of the university. He feels that it will take attention and importance away from the other aca­ demic buildings on campus.

Clinton Parker, ACC com­ mittee member, said that Appala­ chian seriously needs new class­ rooms for students interested in health, leisure and exercise science and an athletic area. "It's an at­ tempt to combine the both," Parker said. The current classrooms and offices in Varsity Gym are stuffed in cubby holes and the gym will not accommodate a large number of people, said an ACC committee member. The new arena will seat 10,000 if neded and that number of seats could be used for gradua­ tion, conventions, trade shows, cultural events and numerous other events, said Tony Gray, di­ rector of offices of conferences and institutes. Now, all events are lim­ ited to Farthing Auditorium. Gray said the ACC will af­ fect Appalachian and the economy in five regions around Boone. Ac­ cording to Gray, people who come to Boone for conventions and other activities now end up stay­ ing in hotels in Lenoir; Hickory and West Jefferson. Gray hopes that with the increase of people coming to Boone because of the ACC, there will be a need for more hotel rooms. The parking issue was also discussed. "ASLPs current parking problem will be dramatically com­ pounded by the ACC," said Helm. Robbins said the firm that assessed the parking problem, Hayes, Seay, Mattern and Mattem, will be coming to Appalachian to­ day to meet with the committee. Robbins said there are only a few potential areas for the construction of a parking deck. The committee will be meeting with them to narrow down these possible sites and to study their feasibility and costs. Robbins said there is po­ tential for a small deck near the future site for the ACC that would hold 160 cars. Space will be set aside for this possible deck and it is included in the schematic draw­ ings. Advertise in The Appalachian Classifieds! Call 262-2157 GOOD NEWS !!!

Students must fight cuts in education On May 4, a group of students and faculty from Appalachian will go to Ra­ leigh to oppose a proposed $48 million cut in the University of North Carolina system budget for 1995-96. Every student at Appalachian should be in that group. The budget cuts proposed by the NC House Appropriations Subcommittee on Education, if passed, will hit all the uni­ versity system campuses hard, including Appalachian. Cuts would lead to reductions in fac­ ulty members and class offerings, in­ creases in class size and college costs and declines in enrollment. Furthermore, the house subcommittee has also recom­ mended even harsher cuts for 1996-97. Students must take a strong stand on this issue and join faculty and adminis­ trators in protesting these cuts. Appala­ chian students will also have to work with students and faculty from the 15 other UNC universities to defeat the proposed cuts. The group that is going to Raleigh on May 4 (reading day), is working with stu­ dents from other UNC-system universities to present a unified stance against the cuts. To join the group going to Raleigh, contact Jonas Monast at 265-4801, or Nick Biddle at 262-6006. If you can't go to Raleigh on reading day, call your representatives in the NC house and senate. Send letters. However you do it, do let your representatives know you object to these cuts. They need to know that neither fac­ ulty, administrators nor students are go­ ing to sit by and watch the state attack one of its most prominent, and promis­ ing, assets. This is not an issue that students can ignore. It is especially not an issue from which students will be isolated. If the cuts are passed, every student will feel the ef­ fects: in their pocketbooks, in their classes and in their futures. The Appalachian will publish its last issue of the semester on Thursday, April 27. Publication will resume in August. The Appalachian is published every Ttiesday and Thursday of the academic year, with the exceptions of selected holidays and breaks. The Appalachian welcomes letters to the editor. These should be typed, double-spaced, and include the authors name, address, phone number and campus affiliation, if any. Un­ signed letters will not be published. The Ap­ palachian reserves the right to decline publi­ cation of any letter or to edit letters for the purpose of space or clarity. Letters should be delivered to the second floor of the student union, or mailed to: Editor, The Appalachian, ASU Box 9025, Boone, NC 28608.

News Editor Angie Brady Features Editor John Lane AssL Features Editor Banned on campus? Skateboarders face discriminatransportation Bryson Betts Columnist To ride a mountain bike 35 mph through campus is perfecdy legal and accepted. It is the same way with "blading" between pedestrians and traffic on roller blades at about 25 mph. Even catering vans, tractors, and maintenance trucks with huge snow blades are permitted to roam about Appalachian with impunity. Seemingly any transportational method is allowed on campus in any amount, shape, or form. Where does campus security draw the line to protect us from undo stress, possible injury, and congested sidewalks? Skateboards. The least annoying mode of transportation has been singled out with imposing signs stating: "Skateboarding Prohibited, Skateboards Will Be Confiscated." What have skateboarders done to campus society to warrant such attention? Why such specific restraints on a means of getting around when all of us should embrace ANY alternate transportation methods? Maybe it is because of the associated subculture that goes along with skateboarding that has struck campus security's ire. Could it be that they do not want THOSE kind of people 'round here? Now, when mountain bikers, roller bladers, and maintenance blaze through, around, and over pedestrians, security smiles and waves because they are respectable folk. However, when someone decides to ride a skateboard to class and a security person sees them, S.WA.T teams descend from above and swarm the hapless indi­ vidual, taking away the skateboard and giving him\her a ticket. I have nearly been struck by bicycles trying to break the ground speed record, hit by 14 year old kids trying to jump over the cafeteria by starting up near the student union and crossing the mall at a 100 mph, and almost ran over by a catering truck that was backing out thinking that the incessant back-up beeper would warn me out of the way in time. Nowhere on campus do I see signs saying that the catering trucks will be confis­ cated, or that the speed limit for bikes is 20 mph, or that skidding down stair-railing via roller blades is prohibited. They are acceptable. Can we, as "environmentally conscious" people condone this action that inhik Jts I Skateboards are highly portable, very maneuverable, and if you are hit by one the the movement from automobile to non-mechanized transport?

The crowd was so out of control that the students began leaving as soon as they walked across the stage and had that one second of glory of having their names called. My family • and I had waited four years (and some people even longer) for this big day and it was ru­ ined because of a rude audi­ ence. I know the rain made it uncomfort­ able to stay seated in the bleachers and umbrellas made it difficult to see. Somehow my parents stayed seated and watched patiently. I was so embarrassed to ac­ knowledge this was my gradua­ tion. Channel 3 television was tap- ing the entire event. I watched the six o'clock news nervously antici­ pating what they had to say about the whole fiasco. Luckily, they sim­ ply acknowledged that we had had a graduation ceremony. For the past decade, Appala­ chian has striven to become more than just a 'Teacher's College," but — to offer edu­ cational op­ portunities in all fields and to be com­ petitive with all North Carolina col­ leges and uni­ versities. Instead, the gradua­ tion por­ trayed the university and its stu­ dents as a bunch of hill­ billies who had never been exposed to the eti­ quette of a formal occasion. For the first time in four years I was embarrassed and humiliated to represent Appalachian. "What I did not expect was the families of the graduating students being so rude and out of control." stationed A nhntnvranher was stationed photographer at the foot of the stage, where each student came across. The photog­ rapher was there in order to take each person's picture so that par­ ents, family members, and friends would not crowd the field. What happened to crowd con­ trol? At no time did Chancellor Borkowski take any measures to direct the crowd back to their seats. Did he not realize this was a direct reflection of him and the students of Appalachian? Instead of taking part in this long-awaited, "dignified" cer­ emony, I felt more like a part of a circus. This ceremony was a threering circus: in ring 1, Chancellor Borkowski standing by, grinning, with absolute oblivion to the chaos at hand; ring 2, parents crowding the processional isles, sitting with their student, oblivious to those who had not had their names called: and ring 3, the leftover stu­ dents who really never felt their moment of glory! I wonder why universities twice our size can have well-orga­ nized, unified ceremonies and Ap­ palachian cannot?

I Clyde Morgan Guest Columnist I would like to address an ar­ ticle by Steve Mackay printed in Thursday's April 6 edition entitled "Hollywood should support the arts." I'm afraid that Mr. Mackay is writing from an extremely illinformed and ignorant viewpoint that seems to be motivated more by current Republican doctrine rather than personal knowledge and academic research of the facts. He is quoted as saying that 'The NEA is the most expendable program on the government's al­ ready full plate." Not only is this statement fueled by opinion and current conservative dogma, it is absolutely not true. If Mr. Mackay had bothered to check his facts, he would have known that the NEA's budget to­ tals $141,950,000 (amount taken from the 1996 U.S. Federal Bud­ get document). This one program of govern­ ment-sponsored art did not even compare to the thousands of other programs that cost as much as ten times as much as the budget ex­ penditure for the NEA. In other words, it was a single digit frac­ tion of the total federal budget. The NEA costs the average citi­ zen less than one dollar a year. Are you that stingy that you will not give one dollar for the arts on a national level? Did you know that the percentage of NEA funds that went to persons seeking grants was less than two percent? The majority of NEA funding goes to arts and crafts fairs and community arts centers (remem­ ber the Jones House?). The rest goes to opera houses, theatres, arts programs, outdoor dramas, schools, and at the bottom of list, artists seeking grant money to fund their work. The argument against the NEA is unfounded but very popular. It was made popular by people like Jesse Helms who was offended by art funded by the government. So, if the Republicans have their way, the NEA ceases to be. You were correct in saying that the nation will not collapse with­ * out art, but what you don't know is that without those funds, hun­ dreds and possibly thousands of theatres, community centers, and arts programs cease to be. That's right, jobs and people's careers are ruined because you and the Republicans' refuse to shell out the pocket change that it costs to keep the arts alive. You propose closing down hundreds of muse­ ums and sending a message to the world that America does not sup­ port nor care about the arts. Let me clue you in to some­ thing. If the arts were not that im­ portant, why do so many people go to plays, movies, concerts, mu­ seums, festivals, etc? They do be­ cause life is hard enough as it is and we all need a little enjoyment and enrichment in it. And don't try to tell me that if the public cared so much then why can't we privatize the arts; that's a whole other article. That is why we rely on grants. People aren't will­ ing for their "one dollar" to go the arts, but they don't hesitate to turn on their television, go to the mov­ ies, or watch their little girl or boy in thetschool play. "Government sponsored art just isn't vital to life and our nation's success" is what you said. I would have to say that that is one of the most shallow and short­ sighted statements I have ever read. One more thing before I step off my soapbox. Your cartoon de­ picted a poor child being deprived money because Uncle Sam was giving it to a "gay, sadomasochistic photographer." That is an ex­ tremely tasteless representation of the arts community and it upsets me that you chose a prejudiced and misrepresentational icon for those of us who pursue the arts as a career. As for your symbol of the poor being left out in the cold, I do be­ lieve the Republicans' are eliminat­ ing WIC (Woman Infant and Chil­ dren) which provides food for chil­ dren of poor, single mothers, elimi­ nating the federal school lunch program, and trying to wipe out welfare. I don't see any gay sadomasochists taking food out of babies' mouths, now do I? Destruction of trees must stop To the Editor: April 5,1995 marks the death of something very dear to me. Each day, I walk along the path behind Coffey Hall to check my mail. Typically, this walk is marred by the din of construction work on the new student union annex, but this day, it was marred by a tree, dead and lifeless. This is the second time within the past 14 days that a tree along this path has been axed. The splin­ tered remains of the first tree to nature. Apparently, some person fall prey still lie strewn across this or persons have not. Whether this act is a result of walkway.

Lee Taylor ASU Box 15314 LT6179 IOB lacks : resh air To the Editor: As an unhappy occupant of Raley Hall, I appreciate your re­ cent call for a ban on smoking in this building. Secondhand smoke is a well-documented lealth hazard. Windows which do not open and a poorly func­ tioning ventilation system greatly contribute to the prob­ lem. To protect my own health I try to minimize the time spent in Raley Hall. Students ought to reconsider decisions to major in business in light of the venti ation problems in the COB building. Repeated requests to past and present administrations for ventilation system improve­ ments (more fresh air needs to be drawn into the building) have not changed the situation. Al­ ready poor indoor air quality is made worse by the prevalence of tobacco smoke. It is ironic that the Director of Environmental Safety, Evan Rowe, was quoted in your edi torial as saying "if a department wishes to eliminate smoking a together they must have a legiti mate reason to do so." Appar ently protecting health is not sufficient. Fred Wallace Associate Professor of Economics �The Appalachian, Thursday 20 A Page 8 Phi Mfilllj Volunteers walk for hunger relief Angie Brady Features Editor April 29 marks the 27th annual CROP Walk, a 10 km walk around Boone to raise money to stamp out world hun­ ger. Walkers are taking pledges for their trek to help raise money to fight hunger both in our community and worldwide. The CROP Walk is sponsored by Watauga County's Hunger Coalition. But according to Hunger Colatition director Cinda McGuinn, "There is a lot of partici­ pation from other organizations. Area churches and other organizations are help­ ing, too." The CROP Walks are sponsored on a national level by Church World Service/CROR The organization was started just after World War II by farmers who harvested their crops and shipped them overseas to war-torn Europe. The CROP acronym originally stood for Christian Rural Overseas Project. Although the name has changed somewhat, the goal of the organization remains the same. There are roughly 100 CROP Walks held annually in North and South Carolina, but the Watauga , County walk is one of the oldest in North Carolina, Twenty-five ^ percent of the money raised by walkers stays Participation in the event is usu­ ally high.

Some people will generally not be able to walk because other things come up." McGuinn says the CROP Walk does see some ASU participation, but "We would love to have much more." McGuinn says the CROP Walk is fun for everyone. "It's for young and old," says McGuinn. "You'll see people of all ages, from those pushing baby strollers all the way up to octogenarians." McGuinn says that those wishing to participate in this year's CROP Walk should go by the Hunger Coalition located on West King Street directly across from the Watauga County Courthouse. It is located J/ 2LC*»NG in Watauga county to help buy food for the Hunger Coalition. The other 75 per­ cent is used by the Church World Service to buy food for the world's hungry. are expected to walk this year. "We had a little over 400 people walk last year," said McGuinn. "This year we've given out about1,000 walker pack- in the same building as the Ram's Rack. Walker packets and pledge sheets will be available there. Walkers then get pledges from McGuinn sums up the daji events by saying that "It's just a got, way to spend a Saturday morning." Tan is the color of choice for spring Vanessa Urruela Reporter Lately, especially since the weather has been nicer, tanned legs have been popping up all over Boone. Give or take a few lucky souls who went to the beach over Easter break, you can count on most of the bronzed limbs you see being created by a tanning bed. Maybe I've just been totally out of it, but recently I discovered that not only is tanning a popular activity here, it is also a competetive business. There are a handful of places that advertise tanning services in the phone book. Most are incorporated into other businesses like salons and video stores. I decided to check them out and call each one. What I found was really interesting. I had no idea that there was so much to tanning. I got so intrigued that I decided to try it for myself. I chose Hats Off Salon because it was closest to campus. Never having tanned before I had a lot of questions to ask before letting myself be baked by radiation. I spoke with Leslie Mintz who was very sympathetic to my worries and told me the truth. She described the basics of tanning and led me to the room where their stand up booth was. I have to admit that I have always thought tanning is a silly thing to pay to do. And, the thought of willingly exposing myself to that much radiation ranked below total body waxing on my list of things to do. Tanning booths have always seemed to me to be another fitness/ beauty trend left over from the '80's. It wasn't until after I talked to several friends who do it, and asked a lot of questions of Leslie, that I agreed to try it. Apprehensively, I entered the room and Leslie showed me how to wipe off the floor of the booth. She then showed me the button to turn the thing on and where the headphones were. She explained that the booth would automatically turn itself off after 20 minutes, showed me what to push to stop it by myself, and left. I stood for a few moments, hesitantly took off most of my clothes and climbed in. As soon as I put the headphones on and pushed the green button, I realized that I had forgotten to ask Leslie for the sticker thingees you put over your eyes while you tan in a stand up booth. I comforted myself with remembering her saying that she always just closed her eyes when she tanned and tried to relax. Overall, I think that tanning is worth it if you have the money and time. It does make me wonder what it is about being tan that we find so attractive, though. The bulbs began to hum a little and soon they were so bright I wouldn't have wanted to open my eyes anyway. The fans overhead turned on and my hair blew around my face. I tried to imagine what I must have looked like standing there squinting my eyes and listening to the radio in my underwear (I wanted to see if I could get a tan line). Sam Beckett from the television show Quantum Leap came to mind and I laughed. I kept imagining that part in the opening of that show when he comes out of the machine with his hair all wild and a blinding light surrounding him. Twenty minutes went by pretty quickly. I tried not to think about what I was doing but kept repeating to myself that this booth was safer than most with only two percent UVB (the rays that burn). I didn't really get sweaty; the fans were great. In fact, even though I was standing up, the bed made Tips before you go tanning *Tanning sessions usually last 20 minutes. * It takes about three sessions to get a base tan. * There are two types of tanning beds; stand- up and lay- down. *Most people tan two or three times a week. *Tanning beds reach two or three layers of skin while the sun goes six or seven layers deep. *Eye protection is highly recommended, either goggles or "winkies" which are stiker-like covers which cost about a quater. *Anyone who operates a booth must be certified and licensed by the state. *Don't shower before you go, your natural body oils help you tan. *Don't wear contacts as it can dry out your eyes. *Some medications, especially antibiotics, react badly with tanning beds.

It was relaxing, and if I hadn't been standing I probably would have fallen asleep. It was also nice to be able to listen to music. I must admit that the first thing I did when I stepped out was to check my skin for tan lines. Sure enough I was slightly darker. I got dressed and Leslie came to check on me. She said that over a few hours I would notice my skin getting darker. She was right. By that afternoon I was really able to see the difference. Overall, I think that tanning is worth it if you have the money and time. It does make me wonder what it is about being tan that we find so attractive, though.

Greek Week starts with servici John Lane Assistant Features Editor The Appalachian State Men's Glee Club will be performing a free concert Friday at 8 p.m. in Rosen Concert Hall. Directed by Dr. Philip Paul, the 49-member chorus will perform compositions ranging from gospel songs to show tunes. For more information call the School of Music at262- 3020. Greek Week got under way this Utesday with a campus clean- up. For the second year, Greek organizations have de­ cided to show what they can give to the community and campus before they have some fun. In their Greek Week statement, the social service chairs Cliff Teague and Catherine Turnage said they hope "this Greek Week is one that is remembered for the contributions it made to humanity." At 4 p.m., at least 10 members from each Greek letter organization came to the fountain on Sanford Mall to get in groups and clean the campus. For their effort, each organization received points toward the Greek Week competition, which will really get under way next week. Each event during the two weeks are worth a pre- determined amount of points. The winning organization will not only get bragging rights, but will also be able to once again contribute to the com­ munity.

They began the stretch with two good games on Good Friday against Western Carolina. The Mountaineers began the first game with two runs off no hits in the bottom of the second inning. The Catamounts took the lead with three runs in the top of the fourth, and the Mountaineers returned the favor with two runs in the bottom of the fifth to re­ gain the lead, 4-3. Western Carolina responded with a home run in the top of the ninth to tie the game, daring the Mountaineers to score again. In the bottom of the ninth, Scott McDaniel struck out but reached first when the Western Carolina catcher dropped strike three. Then with one out, left fielder Brent Payton smacked a tworun homer over the left field fence to win the game for the Mountaineers, 6-4. Phil Falco gave up just one run and struck out four in five innings pitched. Reliever Dan Stutzman got the win, strik­ ing out the only batter he faced in the top of the ninth. Brent Payton went 2 for 5 at the plate with one run and three RBIs. The Mountaineers picked up where they left off in the second game, bringing four runs home in the bottom of the first. Western Carolina made their second comeback of the day, however, scoring seven runs in four innings to take a tworun lead into the bottom of the seventh. The Mountaineer baseball team won three of their five games over the break. (Photo by Rhett Butler) App came up big again in that inning when first-baseman Danny Allard singled to right, picking up two of his four RBIs and tying the game at seven. But the Cata­ mounts got revenge for game one, scor­ ing in the top of the ninth and stopping App in the bottom of the inning to win the game, 8-7. Allard led the Mountaineers with four RBIs off of two hits. Scott McDaniel added one run and one RBI and Shane Owenby had two runs off two hits. Appalachian continued to play well early in the rubber match on Saturday, scoring three runs in the bottom of the first. After allowing four Catamount runs in the top of the third, the Mountaineers regained the lead with three runs in the bottom of the third. Western hammered the Appalachian pitching in the top of the fourth, though, scoring eight runs and bringing twelve batters to the plate. The Mountaineer offense continued to prosper with 10 runs on 14 hits, but it just wasn't enough to overcome Western's 17 run, 15 hit performance. Scott Musgrave paced Appalachian batters with a great day at the plate, go­ ing 4 for 5 with two RBIs. Scott McDaniel added two runs and two RBIs. Appalachian bid happy Easter to NC A&T on Sunday with a mind-boggling of­ fensive blitzkrieg. The Mountaineers fell one run short of a school record, with 26 runs on 21 hits. They held the Aggies to three runs on six hits. Larry Taylor pitched five strong innings for Appalachian to pick up his second win of the season. see Baseball page 11 Apps dominate at home meet of 14.53.

Men squeak by at hom\ Special to the Appalachian One week ago, the ASU track team competed in its first and last home meet of the 1995 season. The Mountaineer men edged out a one-point victory over rival N.C. State, and a five-point victory over Virginia Tech. As ASU's penultimate meet of the regular season, the team was pleased to win and carry momentum into the week of preparation prior to the South­ ern Conference meet in Huntington, WVa. this weekend. "Neither us, or State and Tech really ran our people in 'their' events, but then, that's what these 'fun' meets are about," said coach A1 Fereshetian. What Fereshetian was alluding to was that each of the three teams were preparing for their respective conference meets. Conse­ quently, the athletes from each team got a chance to compete in a number of dif­ ferent events. For example, the meet did not carry a full distance event line-up, rather their shorter counterparts. It was in these mid-distance events that the Mountaineers showed strength. In the 3000m, Tommy Holland sat on a tired Marshal Ferguson of Virginia Tech for 2600m, Holland then blasted past the wilted stature of the Tech runner for the win. Similar circumstances surrounded the 2000m steeplechase. Chris Huffstickler ran just inches off the shoul­ der of N.C. State's runner until 600 meters remained. At that point, Huffstickler sealed his opponent's fate with a power­ ful last lap. In the 1500m, ASU packed a good num­ ber of young runners in. Tom Holland was 2nd in 4:01, Judson Sarver 3rd in 4:01, and Seth Peoples fourth in 4:01 as well. In the short sprints, Andy Raynor showed a strong 100m victory in 10.93. Off the track and to the throwing circle: Rich grant continued his perpetual domi­ nance of the Hammer with three fantas­ tic throws. His best for the day was a na­ tional qualifying 200'2". Rich threw on Friday at South Carolina and ^ a personal record of 204'4".

It was the day you climbed into the family heap with Ma and Pop, crammed against the mini fridge and suitcases and posters. The day you met your first college room­ mate, found a place on campus to eat, and located the nearest ATM. The first weeks and months of school away from home are uncer­ tain enough for most teenagers. Yet student-athletes are bound to balance sports upon the drag of classes and the challenge of unfamiliarity, not to mention the host of other problems which they and non-athletes share. Well-known among the general population is the inability of many high school athletes to handle col­ lege environments. The media spotlights the SAT and ACT results of nearly every notable teen pros­ pect - tne most recent example is basketball's newest superman, fi­ ll Kevin Garnett of Illinois. Gamett is being played as a young man who could become the fourth high school-to-NBA phenom in league history (a short list that includes Moses Malone and Darryl Dawkins). All because Kevin Garnett may Advertising Sales Representative There Is an Immediate opening for an advertising sales representa­ tive to sell newspaper space. Duties Include face-to-face sales calls and developing advertising and marketing strategies to help retailers and automotive dealers move products through effective newspaper advertising design and promotion. The ideal candidate would be a self starter, have sales experience and possess knowledge of advertising and layout design. SELF EXAMINATION Maybe the most simple answer to this problem is TOO easy; re­ turn to the days when freshman athletes were required to sit out the first year. For one school yeai; the stu­ dent-athlete will be a student. Pe­ riod. And for those high school ath­ letes who are lacking in the study skills and reading skills, any dedi­ cated university will be capable of exposing these weaknesses and beating them (and be reminded that there are also plenty of nonathletes who need such help). Considering the long term, there is not a single thing wrong with asking students to earn the right to play competitive sports at a school. At best, two semesters without that which the athlete is most comfortable could uncover an entirely new direction in his life. And if the athlete realizes that he needs a particular grade point av­ erage before sliding into those shoulder pads, what could be bet­ ter incentive to stick his nose in a book every now and again? WATCHDOG The most obvious sour spot for fans regarding the elderly threeyear eligibility plan is that it's only three years. The NCAA should con­ sider allowing an optional fourth season - after all, the average col­ lege student leaves school in fourand-one-half to five years in the '90's. Who ever decided that four years had to be the standard for­ ever? Then there are those high school athletes with talent who have absolutely no interest in any­ thing but sports; they believe that there's moolah to be raked by way of their abilities on the field and that college would be a waste. Terrific. Baseball has minor leagues out the you-know-what why not form more farm leagues for other sports? Besides Europe's leagues and the Continental Bas­ ketball Association, hoops doesn't have much below the NBA. Foot­ ball is even more lacking. Give the lifelong athlete an outlet, too.

Adams delivered his final university address to the SGA Senate last Hiesday night. He praised his cabinet members for their work over the academic year. "They are not only highly motivated, but they have ... always had the knowledge to effectively perform the duties of their office," he said. Adams addressed some of the concerns some members of SGA Senate had over the lack of diversity on his cabi­ net. Eleven of 14 of his cabinet are mem­ bers of a Greek organization. "Diversity is not an issue of color, gender, or even organizational involve­ ment - be that involvement Greek or reli­ gious," he said. "Diversity is an issue of the mind." "This year's cabinet is not only diverse in thought and opinions, but they have proved this commitment to diversity by working many hours to ensure that all sides of an issue were heard," he said. Adams praised SGA Vice Presi­ dent Jane Mclntyre for her efforts in SGA the past year. "The selection of Jane Mclntyre as this year's vice president is the abso­ lute single best decision that I have ever made," he said. Adams also brought up the recent debate over the Appalachian Community and Environmental Stewardship Fee. The proposal failed in a student referendum in February. 'This organization must represent and be held accountable to the entire stu­ dent body... not just a small portion," he said. Adams commended SGA External Affairs Chair Jason Kincaid for his work with "Into The Streets" and "Spring Fling" and Public Affairs Chair Jo Beth Banks for her work on the Homecoming events. Also, he praised Di­ rector of Mountaineer Escort Tim Gray for his dedication to Mountaineer Escort. cabinet. He was narrowly approved by the SGA Senate, when some senators raised questions of his character and atti­ tude. "The difficult confirmation was un­ deserving, but reminded us how ... poli­ tics can consume this organization," he said. In closing, Adams addressed SGA President-elect Darby Weaver and SGA Vice President-elect Robyn Martin. Para­ phrasing Dan Quayle, Adams said, "If you run your administration as well as you ran your campaign, the students will have elected two very effective and capable leaders." During informal discussion, offcampus Senator Dan Norris thanked Adams and Mclntyre for helping Weaver and Martin achieve a smooth transition into their future positions. Adams also said that Stu­ dent Affairs Chair April Farwell has done a good job with pro­ grams such as the safety walk, alcohol awareness is­ sues, and the security fo­ rum. Adams also discussed Academic Af­ fairs Chair Alex Walter's semester on SGA President J.D.

Intent on protecting young chil­ dren from "obscene, lewd, lascivious, filthy, or indecent" material, Senator Jim Exon of Nebraska has introduced the "Communications Decency Act of 1995" (or S. 314 as it is referred to in Congress).

This board would consist of six public people from the professional, business or labor community and 15 officials from higher education. The proposal has met opposition Chancellor Frances T. Borkowski has been asked to review a new proposal that would create national standards for university accreditation. The National Policy Board on Higher Education In­ stitutional Accreditation has proposed the installation of national standards for all uni­ versities to meet in order to be recognized as a university of high standards. The NPB has asked for the input of the education community on this new pro­ posal. Borkowski "I think it's going to pass," said Borkowski.

The NPB maintains that establish­ ing national standards would encourage the consistency of the procedures and standards among regional accrediting agencies as well. This part of the proposal sets guidelines for the regional accredit­ ing bodies. The proposal also creates a task force that would rec­ ommend how to develop a certification program for spe­ cialized, regional accrediting agencies. According to Borkowski, the creation of national stan­ dards for accreditation would help hold down costs for Ap­ palachian. "It is expensive for ASU to get accrediting bodies to come to campus," said Borkowski. Appalachian was up for accreditation in 1992 and will not be up for another review until 2002. The NPB will be entertaining feedback from the academic community to help strengthen the proposal. Presidents and chancellors are be­ ing sent copies of the draft proposal and asked for comment. There has also been a meeting in June to hear from the advi­ sory committee. The proposal is being debated and a date has not been set for a final vote by the NPB. "Accreditation has been under attack for quite a few years." In addition, several USENET News discussion groups would also be eliminated. USENET (accessed by typing NEWS at the $ prompt), consists of over 4,000 individual discussion groups where users with common interests can post messages for other readers to read and to which they can respond. To comply with the provisions of S. 314, areas which contain sexual or por­ nographic content "would have to be dropped in accordance with the law," said Combs. Despite the bill's noble intentions, many Internet users feel that S. 314 is a major infringement of their first amend­ ment rights. In retaliation, users have see Internet page 2 NewWASU station manager selected Tiffany Lohman Assistant News Editor Sophomore Johnathan Mauney has been chosen to be the station man­ ager for WASU for the1995-95 academic year. Mauney was selected from an interview with the Student Media Board and Dr. Gregory Blimling, vice chancel- i lor of student development. Mauney is a broadcast produc­ tion major who has worked with WASU for the past two years. Mauney also did internships with WBTV News and WTVI-42 during his senior year at West Charlotte High School. Mauney is currently the produc­ tion manger at WASU and works writ­ ing the Public Service Announcements and promotional spots. He has spoken with students about what they would like the radio sta-1 tion to be. Mauney's goals for the station next year include increasing listeners by playing more popular music, serving stu­ dent needs and working with the com­ munication department to provide a learning lab for students.

The petition, which some Appalachian students have re­ ceived by way of E-Mail, asks that passage of S. 314 be blocked not only on the basis of first amend­ ment rights violations, but also due to financial burden placed on smaller companies. Those unable to equip themselves with the nec­ essary manpower or technology to enforce the provisions of the bill would most likely go out of busi­ ness. Students also feel threat­ ened by the potential aftereffects of S. 314. "The Internet is our last form of freedom of speech," said freshman Nicole Bubolo of Northport, N.Y. "I feel the Internet should be left uncensored." There are others however, who are willing to surrender their first amendment rights in order to prevent young children from be­ ing exposed to the material that S. 314 would eliminate. Freshman Anna Suhonen of Lawrenceville, Ga., said "The Internet contains a lot of adult material I wouldn't want in the hands of any eight-year-old."

Even an ar­ ticle in this paper ("Hollywood should support the arts," April 6) recently made a "gay sodomasochistic photographer" as its symbol for the art world. Why not sim­ ply a "photographer?" Because there would not have been a negative image with just the term "photographer." And sure, we're progressing. Several years ago, the article could have simply said "gay photographer," and it would have been enough for the negative image. Now we need "sodomasochistic" to really give it that sinful taste.

While that may be true, might we ask who is get­ ting those jobs if it isn't college graduates. Secondly, do the jobs exist, or legislature's plan to cut higher edu­ cation is unfair and shortsighted. In a press release issued April 6, 1995, Spangler points out that the state is enjoying a year of eco­ nomic upturn. Estimates suggest that the state will receive a rev­ enue surplus ranging from $500 million to $1 billion dollars this "Now, in a moment of economic fair weather, legislators are turning against higher education again." is the economy in recent years in­ year.

Spangler, argues that the tion in recent years knows that the state was in recession from 19901993, and that the university's bud­ get was slashed throughout that period. Hundreds of positions were surrendered while student enrollment increased. The univer­ sity carried on, shouldering its share of the economic burden. Now in a moment of economic fair weather, legislators are turning against higher education again. Spangler worries that "by making the 16-campus university less attractive to faculty and to stu­ dents, we are exchanging a win­ ning game plan for a set of budget numbers derived from elementary exercises in-basic arithmetic, with litde thoughtful concern for con­ sequences." The Republican majority's first 100 days are over and as the dust settles many people are concerned for the future. In the rush to de­ liver smaller government, legisla­ tors are wounding a fundamental source of economic prosperity and social progress in this state by cut­ ting the university budget in a time of revenue surplus. Now is not the time to decrease the university, rather, as Spangler urges, "Now is The Student Media Board of Appalachian State University inllim-10i ullim-11 pn 12Noon-10pi Serving ASU with this ad Buffet Not Included Dinner & Dine-in Only Monday through Saturday Dorm Delivery $15 minimum • 265-3313 265-1655 Business Manager; The Appalachian I Walauy;i Villain: Miopnm;j ( Ynlcr i\e\l l" IxkCni briii:I Hlinvii.it!

App baseball heads t o Hickory Stephen Hensley Assistant Sports Editor There will be something special about Appalachian's baseball game with North Carolina on Tuesday, April 25. Even though the Mountaineers face the Tarheels every season, this will be the first time that the game will be held in L. R Franz Sta­ dium in Hickory. The game is part of an effort by L. R Franz Stadium, the current home of the Hickory Crawdads minor league baseball team, to host the ACC Baseball Champi­ onships. Since the Crawdads came to town, Hickory has shown great support for baseball, and landing a big college tournament is the next step. "They have bid for the ACC tourna­ ment," said Appalachian State Assistant Athletic Director Mark Dreibilbis. "They want a lot of people to show that there is support, not only for the Crawdads, but also for intercollegiate baseball." The gates will open at 6 p.m., an hour before game time, to allow for the events scheduled for the evening. There will be a pre-game tailgate party with a band, carnival games including the velcro wall and sumo suits, and full stadium consessions. The cost for the entire event is only $3 for the general public and $1 with an Appalachian ID. "This is a game for Appalachian that is good for exposure," said Dreibelbis. 'This is the final game before the conference tournament." Before the Apps lock horns with the Heels however, the Mountaineers will fin­ ish their conference schedule including home games against Western Carolina and non-conference North Carolina A&T.

The NEA is the most expendable program on the government's already full plate. It's sad, but true. Our nation can survive very well without govern­ ment-sponsored art. Don't get me wrong. Iam not an art-hating conservative tightwad who lives only for Grey Poupon. I love art with all of my heart. I am minoring in art (al­ though I may now be banned from Wey Hall for writing this article). I am at my paramount happiness when I pick up a paintbrush or a pencil and create a piece of art. The cartoon accompany­ ing this article is mine. However, when the chips fall, government-spon­ sored art just isn't that vital to life and our nation's success. We need to make choices in how the government spends our tax money. So, do we give our money to a gay sadomasochistic photographer or do we give it to a home­ less five-year-old? These are tough choices that need to be answered. Now. We, as a nation, simply cannot af­ ford to throw money at every cause in the book. The Republican Congress made a promise in the Contract With America that the budget has to be cut significantly. Newt Gingrich has been catching hellfire for his school lunch revamp idea, among other controversial items. One of his targets is the NEA- I hope he hits a bulls-eye on this one. The government has no place, nor money, to be funding such a huge bureaucratic dead­ weight. So, how do we fund the arts? Simple, remember all those whining actors at the Academy Awards? Well, they have so much money it's coming out of their ears. "Forrest Gump" has, so far, raked in $320 million at the box office. That's a hell of a lot of moneymost of it is pure profit.

From the articles I have read this year, I think the entire staff, minus a FEW good and pro­ fessional writers, needs to take heed. This letter is in regard to the Editorial page in Thursday's (March 30) paper. I was appalled to see the statement "For those who think the students who pro­ duce The Appalachian are not entitled to an opinion" in a blank "Our Opinion" column. I found that display and statement to be very rude, sarcastic, and disre­ spectful to anyone who actually picks up the paper and reads it. Your professionalism is lacking. Some of the staff members obvi­ ously need to learn a little moreno, I take that back- a lot more about what it means to be profes­ sional. Kinney Slover ASU Box 11643 Is App 'environmentally conscious? To the editor: There are so many advan­ tages of attending a college where its students would consider them­ selves environmentally aware. We get to have a political say, to an extent, in what happens to the world arotyid us*^.Whether it be about the posifibl^development of a nearby natural area, or the democratic process of electing our student government leaders, every one of us has the right, and yes, the responsibility to respond to these issues. Yet, when it comes down to everyday, mundane life, how do we as a collective commu­ nity respond? During this freak of nature we would all like to believe is an early spring, I have spent a total of three days out on Sanford Mall. I would bring out my blanket, an Anne Rice novel, and one of those "environmentally conscious" Ap­ palachian cups. The only thing I would regretfully leave behind was a far too big impression on the grass where my rear end was. To­ day, though, I decided to go to class and on my way back I had a chance to envy those who had the time to be out there. A potpourri of stu­ dents filled the lawn with procla­ mations on their shirts to save Mother Earth. Ah, yes, the joys of being environmentally aware. A closer look let me see the true character of this school. All along the sidewalk in front of the cafeteria were paper cups, take-out boxes, empty yogurt cups with the spoons still left in them, and the wrappers from those little mints you can buy at the Food Court cash registers. There was even a glass from the cafeteria wedged in the corner of a stone ledge. I looked ahead to see if perhaps a garbage can had toppled over and the wind had carried the trash to where it was. But no, nothing to explain the garbage that made our student body look like a bunch of kids. You see, I can complain about all of this. I have the right. Everyone who wanted to save Howard's Knob from the destruc­ tive side of humanity who was out on the mall can just go hang up your T-shirts about recycling and hide your ACES stickers because you did npthing. There will be no pleas of ignorance and no pathetic excuses because the obvious is obvious. I carried at least six or seven loads to a garbage can right in front of the cafeteria. Some people gave me the funniest looks. Mostly, though, I was just as ig­ nored as the trash. It takes three seconds to throw away your own trash. It takes even less effort to try to con­ vince yourself that you actually care about something other than yourself. Jennifer Samson ASU Box 11016 �Our Opinion... Prohibit TV violence not a laughing matter freshman parking Erica Everett Columnist Television broadcasting compa­ nies claim that in order to keep their rat­ ings up they must include violence in their programming. Violence is the last thing that we need on television. It contributes to an increase in aggressive behavior in our society. Studies in social psychology should persuade the television companies to take violence out of their shows. The Nielson rating study showed that there is no correlation between the amount of violence found in television shows and the popularity of the program. This is not to say that there is an absence of violence on television. By the age of 18 the average person sees 22,000 murders on television. What does this mean that we have subjected ourselves to? Pick up any Psychology book and you will find the answer. Children act out the violent acts Appalachian has a parking prob­ lem. There are too many cars for the num­ ber of spaces available. To help alleviate this problem, Appalachian should prohibit freshman parking. Currently, there are 936 freshmen registered to park on campus (not includ­ ing those who commute). Their parking is restricted to the State Farm parking area during the week, and they are only al­ lowed to bring their cars to campus on the weekends- a policy that is not strictly enforced. By eliminating freshman parking with certain exceptions, such as the 253 commuting freshmen and those an exten­ sive distance from home, Appalachian would free-up close to 1,000 spaces. The State Farm lot would be open for upperclassmen who live on campus. By taking these cars away from campus, more spaces would be available for stu­ dents who commute. This would not only open State Farm, but would also effec­ tively keep unnecessary cars off campus Jason K.R. Wilkinson during the week.

Attraction to the But the fact of the matter is that most colleges do not allow freshmen to opposite sex. And what form does this bring cars to campus at all. At the present take up? Dating. Sure, at first glance, this may time, Appalachian, where parking is al­ ready scarce, does. The extra vehicles are seem a trivial thing, but stop and think not only unnecessary in most cases, but about it... many people meet their future spouse in college.

All of a sudden, this dating thing has a completely different sound to it. It's serious business now. Of course, if you start looking at someone on a first date as someone to spend the rest of your life with ... well, this doesn't exactly work either. A couple of friends and I have recently spent a fair amount of time talk ing about the whole or­ deal. We are not ex­ perts, by experience or knowledge, but I think we have found a couple of things that stand true. Two people who are attracted to each other can never ever be friends in the same way that two people who are not attracted to each other can. This is often the most contested of my cen­ tral truths, so I figured I would start with it. Have a look at the hierarchy of needs, and you will see that it goes something like (in order): Food, survival of the spe­ cies, reproduction of the species, and need of the species to listen to disco. The first thing the human brain does when you see a person is determine whether that per­ son is male or female. And the next thing it determines is if the person is attractive. Everything else is founded on this base, and no one can escape it. It always playj a part. Distance relationships never work. If they are founded on closeness, but the person has to move away, thereis a chance, but it is rare. Some of you may be inclined to write and tell me of yot wonderful distance relationship and well it works. I guess this would be exception, but for the most part "dist; relationships never work." Relationships you start wl drunk rarely turn out to be very he: or stable. When people sober up, tions return, and the situation become] one founded on awkwardness. .j 'Final rule: NEVER date someoif who has a significant other. Bad nei Even if it seems like a wonderful idea, all smoke and mirrors, because it a be a good idea. Except for (like the di p tance rule) when it actually works. Then are many other rules to go into, but I gues the most important things to rememte are: 1) Don't be scared to ask, nothinj ® ventured, nothing gained and 2) Don'tdd anything stupid.

VU1 country is over $4 trilOur n hilars deep in the money pit, . ePth that could very well imNode us. So, in order to get rid of rather large debt, sacrifices need to be made. The NEA is the most expendable program on the government's already full plate. It's sad, but true. Our nation can survive very well without govern­ ment-sponsored art. Don't get me wrong. Iam not an art-hating conservative tightwad who lives only for Grey Poupon. I love art with all of my heart. I am minoring in art (al­ though I may now be banned from Wey Hall for writing this article). I am at my paramount happiness when I pick up a paintbrush or a pencil and create a piece of art. The cartoon accompany­ ing this article is mine. However, when the chips fall, government-spon­ sored art just isn't that vital to life and our nation's success. We need to make choices in how the government spends our tax money. So, do we give our money to a gay sadomasochistic photographer or do we give it to a home­ less five-year-old? These are tough choices that need to be answered. Now. We, as a nation, simply cannot af­ ford to throw money at every cause in the book. The Republican Congress made a promise in the Contract With America that the budget has to be cut significantly. Newt Gingrich has been catching hellfire for his school lunch revamp idea, among other controversial items. One of his targets is the NEA- I hope he hits a bulls-eye on this one. The government has no place, nor money, to be funding such a huge bureaucratic dead­ weight. So, how do we fund the arts? Simple, remember all those whining actors at the Academy Awards? Well, they have so much money it's coming out of their ears. "Forrest Gump" has, so far, raked in $320 million at the box office. That's a hell of a lot of moneymost of it is pure profit.

Letters to the Editor Write The opalachian at P0 ox 9025 or E-Mail to TheApp@ irad.appstate.edu Qualified minorities not pursued Reader expresses discontent over editoria To the Editor: I really don't know if this needs to be written to the editor or the entire The Appalachian edi­ torial staff. From the articles I have read this year, I think the entire staff, minus a FEW good and pro­ fessional writers, needs to take heed. This letter is in regard to the Editorial page in Thursday's (March 30) paper. I was appalled to see the statement "For those who think the students who pro­ duce The Appalachian are not entitled to an opinion" in a blank "Our Opinion" column. I found that display and statement to be very rude, sarcastic, and disre­ spectful to anyone who actually picks up the paper and reads it. Your professionalism is lacking. Some of the staff members obvi­ ously need to learn a little moreno, I take that back- a lot more about what it means to be profes­ sional. Kinney Slover ASU Box 11643 To the editor: There are so many advan­ tages of attending a college where its students would consider them­ selves environmentally aware. We get to have a political say, to an extent, in what happens to the world aroujid us*,_Whether it be about the posSiWedevelopment of a nearby natural area, or the atural democratic process of electing our student government leaders, every one of us has the right, and yes, the responsibility to respond to these issues. Yet, when it comes down to everyday, mundane life, how do we as a collective commu­ nity respond? During this freak of nature we would all like to believe is an early spring, I have spent a total of three days out on Sanford Mall. I would bring out my blanket, an Anne Rice novel, and one of those "environmentally conscious" Ap­ palachian cups. The only thing I would regretfully leave behind was a far too big impression on the grass where my rear end was. To­ day, though, I decided to go to class and on my way back I had a chance to envy those who had the time to be out there. A potpourri of stu­ dents filled the lawn with procla­ mations on their shirts to save Mother Earth. Ah, yes, the joys of being environmentally aware. A closer look let me see the true character of this school. All along the sidewalk in front of the cafeteria were paper cups, take-out boxes, empty yogurt cups with the spoons still left in them, and the wrappers from those little mints you can buy at the Food Court cash registers. There was even a glass from the cafeteria wedged in the corner of a stone ledge. I looked ahead to see if perhaps a garbage can had toppled over and the wind had carried the trash to where it was. But no, nothing to explain the garbage that made our student body look like a bunch of kids. You see, I can complain about all of this. I have the right. Everyone who wanted to save Howard's Knob from the destruc­ tive side of humanity who was out on the mall can just go hang up your T-shirts about recycling and hide your ACES stickers because you did i\othing. There will be no pleas of ignorance and no pathetic excuses because the obvious is obvious. I carried at least six or seven loads to a garbage can right in front of the cafeteria. Some people gave me the funniest looks. Mostly, though, 1 was just as ig nored as the trash. It takes three seconds to throw away your own trash, takes even less effort to try to con­ vince yourself that you actually care about something other than yourself. Jennifer Samson ASU Box 11016 �The Appalachian. Thursday 6 a Page 6 Ml* Affrilachian writers explore commonalities and diversity of region John Lane Assistant Features Editor "Not until you fully accept whoever you are and wherever you are from will you ever be able to write about other people and things," said Nikki Finney, one of the Affrilachian writers who visited ASU this Monday and Tuesday. Monday night, Finney, along with Frank X. Walker and Gurney Norman, gave readings of poetry and prose in I.G. Greer auditorium. They are three writers who associate with the group of writers from the Appalachian region, grouped un­ der the name of a poem by Walker. Affrilachian came from "slamming" Africa and Appalachian together. The poem gives the commonalities of all people from Appalachia, re­ gardless of gender, race or religion. The poem was inspired when he went to a reading at The Opera House in Lexington, Kentucky. The theme of the evening was on the Appalachian region, and the only African-American was a Cali­ fornia writer. Walker asked, "Why did they have to go so far (to find an African-American writer)?" Therefore, he organized his own work and took it upon himself to give the region true representa­ tion. Walker, a native of Kentucky, was the first reader, and his influence is drawn mostly from his family and their life in the tobacco country of Ken­ tucky. One example of which was "The Cutting Season." This poem was under work, But Walker explained that the best way he found to finish a poem was to read it over and over again. Of the poems Walker chose to share, the ones about his "large, strange, wonderful family" gave the most insight into his thoughts and life. "Somebody scream, please," was a line from "Awake," a poem about his grandmother's funeral, and showed a side of himself that was also seen in his inspiring style of presentation. But another side of Walker could be seen in "Kenta Colored Heart," which is a poem about a friend from college who died young. "Picked up this pencil/ and cut away at this pain in my heart." Nikki Finney achieves a wide arrow of styles and topics in her poetry. She uses history of family and the Appalachian region as a basis, but goes to extremes from there. Her beginning sug­ gestion was for all writers to "stay close to the soil...whatever that means to you." In "Fishing Among the Learned," a poem about teaching, it is possible to see what it per­ haps means to her. The work was inspired by her grandmother, who taught Finney much about life in general by teaching her how to fish. "You don't just fish to catch/ you fish to keep/ to have some­ thing to give back." Gurney Norman is a celebrated prose writer of Appalachia. His humor can be seen in relating life The poem "Affrilachian" came from "slamming " Africa and Appalachian together. The poem gives the commonalities of all people from Appalachia, regardless of gender, race or religion. of the region in the form of short anecdotes, letters and even obituaries, and the humor only increases when the stories are read aloud in Norman's squeaky Kentucky voice. To his credit are the books "Divine Right's Trip" and "Kinfolks." Of other published writings, Norman said, "I'm the token hillbilly in the [Wibird] anthology," which includes writers of diverse eth­ nic groups. Affrilachian Writer Gurney Norman (top right) reads from his upcoming novel Monday night in I.G. Greer Auditorium. Frank Walker and Nikki Finney (above) talk to students about poetry and the Appalachian influence tuesday morning in Sanford. (Photos by John Lane.) "Writers talk about their material, and so do quilters," said Norman, and this bestde. scribes his work. His examples of this were hji biography of a Kentuckian in New York, and he said, "I was on an adventure and it was urgent that I talk." On Tuesday, Finney and Walker returned to work with the students of a beginning creative writing class. They talked about every­ thing from influences to improving writing and, since both are teachers, seemed to affect the stu­ dents greatly. "When it starts to get emotionally uiy comfortable, that's when you are starting to ga close," said Walker on writers discovering theni selves. But he went on to say, "You don't always have to invent what you write about. You cat find it out there, and make it yours." Finney concurred. "It is important for me to be a camera. To be as visual as I can," she said. "If you ever feel you've arrived, you'® dead...you've quit growing." All three artists have made great strides for arts in the region, not only for African-Ameri cans, and not only in writing. Norman giv$s perspective of family life in the Appalachia#! more than any ethnic group, and Walker aire works in visual arts. But their influence together as the Affrilachian writers is the most widely known. As Rice said of her upcoming book re lease, Rice, "Sometimes we look so much atoti differences, we don't see our similarities." This statement typifies the Affrilachian's mission by allowing all to see our similarities. , It's Allgood at Legend's Art exhibit shows off students1 best works, Angie Brady in Boone Features Editor Michael Greene Reporter Allgood, with special guest Cat­ fish Jenkins, will be playing at Legends in Boone tonight for a display of some of the best music the Southeast has to offer. Allgood is a rhythm and bluesbased southern rock band out of Georgia. The band formed in 1987 when five guys decided to get together for fun. Less than a year later, Allgood Music Company, as it was then called, started playing around the Southeast, building a steady follow­ ing. They recorded their first indepen­ dent album in 1991. "Ride the Bee" was recorded over about a three month period and was produced by Johnny Sandlin, who has worked in the past with bands like the Allman Brothers. Since then, Allgood has been signed by A&M Records, and have re­ leased two albums, "Uncommon Goal" and "Kickin' and Screamin'," as a live al­ bum. Allgood was part of the second annual H.O.R.D.E. Tour which featured acts like Blues Traveler, Big Head Todd and the Monsters, and Widespread Panic. They later went on by teaming up with Big Head Todd on a successful tour of the Midwest and Northeast.

Recent victories against North Carolina Wesleyan and Davidson have demonstrated the po­ tential of this rising young team. In the 16-7 victory over North Caro­ lina Wesleyan, nine Mountaineer players were involved in the scoring. Freshman Tom Seuss led the way with a spectacular display of stickhandling resulting in six goals and one assist. Andy Kisslo also played a solid game of ball control, con­ tributing two goals and two assists. Brad Broughton scored a hat trick with his three goal performance. Senior Tom Riley added two goals while dominating his faceoffs. Freshman Matt Christian chipped in a goal and an assist. Tripp McDuffie assisted on two goals, and Dan Stewart, a new player, scored his first goal on a blistering bounce shot. To complete the scoring, Chris Dryden added a goal while Jeff McNinch collected an assist. In the Davidson game with the score knotted at 2-2 and less than two minutes remaining, Seuss took a transition pass, broke to the goal, dodged and twisted past two defenders and scored to secure the 3- Payton: App's big hitter David Willis Reporter Junior transfer Brent Payton has the Mountaineer baseball team on the right track and looking to do some damage down the home stretch.

Before coming to Appalachian, Payton played two years at Brevard Junior Col­ lege, where last season, he helped his team reach the College World Series. "We lost our only two games, but it was a great experience and I hope to go again with ASU," said Payton. He led Brevard last year in RBIs, batting for a .380 average, and hit 9 homeruns. Payton said he feels he is playing pretty well right now, but noted that he is not quite playing up to his potential. He would like to improve his running speed and be able to steal more bases. So far this season, he is 4-5 in that category. At 6'1" tall and 175 lbs, he's not ex­ actly Frank Thomas or Cecil Fielder, but this compact power hitter is much like his favorite player, Ron Gant. Payton says his greatest personal achievement would have to be last year when he hit two homeruns in one game in the College World Series. An impressive achievement in itself. A quiet person generally, Payton does his talking on the field. He leaves the lead­ ership duties up to guys like Dave Young, Matt Russell, and Garth Armstrong, al­ though he likes to consider himself a mo­ tivator on the field.

In the closing moments of the Davidson game, Kershnefs stick and body saves kept the victory in hand. Other players have also had a major impact on Appalachian's success in the spring. Scott Entrikin has played well on attack by setting rock-solid screens for cutting midfielders and popping free for an occasional quick-stick goal. Strong performances have come from midfielders Ben O'Grady and Forrest Hooper, as well as from freshman defenseman Mike Hurst. Ben Chesnut and Jeff Braun were also major contribu­ tors before falling to season end­ ing injuries. Coach Andy Bagerstock is op­ timistic about the future of Appa­ lachian lacrosse. "With this year's crop of new players and the addition of Ray Cameron to the coaching staff, Appalachian lacrosse is really on the rise," Bagerstock said. "We en­ courage students and staff to come out and support the team." The Mountaineers' remaining home games will be played on Upper Stadium field.

Once a player enters college, they are not eligible for the draft again until the end of their sophomore year. "I felt like I was too young to go and I wanted to play Divi­ sion I baseball and my coach at Brevard was always talking about how great Appalachian was," said Payton. "I still hope and plan to play professional ball after I graduate. I would really like to play and I think 1 have a pretty good chance, but if things don't work out, 1 would like to get a job in the crimi­ nal justice field." The way things are going right now, Payton will not need that degree for quite some time and with the wealth of juniors on Appalachian's baseball team, he might just get back to the College World Series after all. Payton continued from page 8 through in that situation and hav­ ing your teammates behind you is a great feeling." Recruited by the pros out of high school, where he played at North Gaston, Payton decided to go to Brevard.

"I think that Darby and Robyn did a good job," he said. "I wish them the best of luck. ...They will be held accountable." Martin said she was really excited about the results. "I'm not sure that it's hit me yet," she said. Finch expressed his disappoint­ ment. "During the runoff the platform ideas were lost ... it became an anti-es­ tablishment issue," he said. 'That con­ cerns me about the future of SGA. I would hope the students would base their deci­ sion on student issues."

"The chancellor feels that it is necessary to answer certain questions and concerns. Many people are very anxious right now, due to the fact that we are pos­ sibly talking about millions and millions of dollars," said Snead.

Reporter Talent Search Tonight At Farthing Administrator Michael Hagerty spoke out against the Chancellor's diversity report Monday at a press conference to inform students about the 19-page report. (Photo by Shane Richardson) Two Student Government sena­ tors presented their views on the chancellor's report for diversity Monday at a press conference in front of the ad­ ministration building. Michael Hagerty and Jeff Walton said they were insulted by portions of the report requesting'affirmative action, but most of all insulted by the lack of aware­ ness and knowledge throughout the stu­ dent body about the report. "I do believe students were left out," Hagerty said. "I'm disappointed that J.D. (Adams), SGA president, and Jane (Mclntyre), SGA vice president, were given the report and didn't bring it up (in senate) yet. Students are the blood of the university." Mclntyre said the report will come before senate for discussion next week.

Affirmative action provides women and minorities with equal op­ portunities for employment and promo­ tion in the workplace. If eliminated, em­ ployers would no longer have to pro­ vide preferential treatment to women and minorities when making employ­ ment decisions. The potential loss of affirmative action is something that graduating col­ lege students will have to face.

"It's far too early to tell," said Dr. David Ball, director of Ca­ reer Development. "I wouldn't even begin to speculate on the ef­ fects until the bill actually passed." Among Appalachian se­ niors, opinions are divided on whether the workplace will be bet­ ter off with or without affirma­ tive action. Some strongly believe that the loss of affirmative action would be irrelevant in the search for employment. "It wouldn't bother me a bit," said Shawna Tabor, a senior. "I personally believe that the per- continued from page son best qualified for the job should get it." Others, however, argue that affirmative action is vital in assuring equal opportunity in the workplace. Kathryn Bachmeyer said. "I think they should conduct job interviews from behind a screen using voice adapters. That woulc be the only way to affirm equal op­ portunity employment." "I think we should keep affirmative action," said And Dixon. "It has really given qua fied African-Americans and m norities a chance."

"Anybody who's going to criticize our beliefs should look at the diversity report as a whole," Hagerty said. Nine people including the hosts, attended the conference. Hagerty said he was not surprised, since they did not publicize the press conference on purpose. "A bunch of uneducated people rallying in front of the ad­ ministration building won't accom­ plish anything," Hagerty said. "We're not going head to head with Chancellor Borkowski. We just want to increase awareness." The students still voiced opposition to the report. Jennifer Pugh of Stafford, Va., a concerned student, who helped host the con­ ference said she was offended by the fact she is considered a minor­ ity on campus when there are ac­ tually more women than men.

In IRC there are just as many chan­ nels, or subjects, as News. They fall into the same general categories#sex, #bondage, #beastiality. People would log on and discuss such mat­ ters through the Net with no worries. All of these outlets for sexual frus­ trations and accomplishments came to light because of a young man attend­ ing the University of Michigan. A fre­ quent reader of alt.sex.creative, he posted a story detailing the kidnap­ ping, rape and murder of a young girl. Days later, another UM student read the story and not only recognized the author's name from a class, but also the name and description of the young lady featured in the story. This was after an investigation by the police which uncovered the man's desire to ac­ tually "live" his story. So Sen. Exon is now attempting to restrict the access to such "obscene" ma­ terials. I will not debate the issue of such material's worth to the everyday public. What I will debate is that such people deserve the right to have it heard or read in a context that will not offend others. If you see a title with the word "SEX" in it, then don't read it. It's as simple as that, but evidently not to Sen. Exon. According to the Communications Decency Act, Internet providers \ (such as CompuServe, Prodigy and America Online) would be forced to restrict or forbid access to cer­ tain parts of cyberspace. Fines of up to $100,000 could be im­ posed if walls aren't built. There's only one problem- it's impossible to do so. Given the Net tools of Gopher, Veronica, File Transfer Protocol and telneting, there's always a way to get to your destination. Put it this way. There are hundreds of ways to travel from Los Angeles to New York. Could you imag­ ine blocking every road from California to the Big Apple to prevent someone from getting there? It can't be done. So in essence, current providers would either have to attempt to restrict access or shut down completely. But that's not stopping Exon or the possibility that a Republican Congress will approve of such a measure. In the old days you could just call your senator's office and complain. Now it's the age of the cyber-roots movement. A petition is circulating the Net calling for the dismissal of such legislation.

Just as news groups are like reading mail, IRC is like talking on the States as desirable, says Kausikan, it is not unreasonable for the U.S. gov­ ernment to promote its own interest in human rights and democracy. How­ ever, the U.S. must not ignore the unique cultural, social, economic and political circumstances of other coun­ tries. "The myth of the universality of all human rights is harmful if it masks the real gap that exists between Asian and Western perceptions of human dent of the Open Society Fund. "Con­ sensus imposing" would be a better term than "consensus seeking" to describe what has been happening in Asia, says Neier. He continues to say that the West's wealth did not come before its embrace of human rights, but that ac­ tually the two proceeded in tandem. People join in societies and create gov­ ernments to improve themselves, says Neier. Democracy and justice based on human rights are necessary for societies to progress so­ cially, economically and po­ litically. The main reason for promoting human rights worldwide is that intrinsic values are at stake- namely the right of all persons to be free from cruel and arbi­ trary punishment, to be able to express themselves freely and to matter equally regardless of race, ethnicity, religion or gender. Because these fundamental rights define us as human beings, most people will not consent to a de­ nial of such rights except in the face of superior force. Because the view of what consti­ tutes human rights abuses continues to be controversial, the West may be re­ quired to make complex political dis­ tinctions, perhaps refraining from tak­ ing a position on some human rights is­ sues, irrespective of their merits, in or­ der to press others where the prospects for consensus are better. The challenge for East and South­ east Asia will be to devise credible, dis­ tinctive and coherent positions within the parameters of international law on human rights, while the challenge for the West is to couple its desire to press for international adherence to human rights standards with an acknowledg­ ment that many rights are still contested concepts where a consensus of mean­ ing is coupled with conflicts of interpre­ tation. "...the West may be required to make complex political distinctions, perhaps refraining from taking a position on some human rights issues..." rights," says Kausikan. Because the missionary zeal to remake the world in our own image is deeply ingrained in Western (especially American) po­ litical culture, human rights advocates often choose to interpret reality in the way they believe most helps their cause. It is possible that poverty, inse­ curity and instability breed human rights abuses, while wealth creates the stability of Western societies and al­ lows the operation of political institu­ tions that, in less favorable circum­ stances, could lead to disaster. Con­ sequently, as countries in East and Southeast Asia become more prosper­ ous, secure and self-confident, they are moving beyond a purely defensive at­ titude to a more active approach to hu­ man rights.

Don't worry, I never heard of this comic book either. In the year 2033, the world is nearly bone-dry and desolate. Water has become a scarce good ever since a me­ teor crashed into the Earth's surface and made the rain stop. The world is divided into two groups of people, those who have water (the evil department of water) and those who don't (everybody else). Rebecca Buck a.k.a. Tank Girl (played by Lori Petty from "A League of Their Own") is one of the many folks on the short end of the stick. However, Buck's not the kind of chick who gives up, she drives her souped-up tank straight into battle. Her thirst brings her up against an entire army. The head of the militaristic De­ partment of Water (played by Malcolm McDowell) has world domination in his eyes. Seeing as how water is a necessity for all life, his goal is quite possible. So, it's up to Tank Girl and her mutant kan­ garoo friends (led by rap star Ice-T) to nip that goal in the bud. Yes, I did say "mu­ tant kangaroo friends." Don't worry, I didn't understand either. 'Tank Girl" is a strange, but cool movie filmed in the same manner as last year's "Natural Born Killers." Director Rachel Talalay uses bits of animation, crazy camera angles and super fast edit­ ing to bring this nutty film to life. Lori Petty is great as the tank-driv­ ing heroine. She's pretty good-looking (for a punk rocker girl), spunky, tough as nails and extremely funny. Best of all, no matter how hard the bad guys knock her down, she knocks them down even harder. She dispenses more one liners than rounds of ammo. "Tank Girl" is not for all tastes, it's one of those strange science-fiction movies destined for cult status and video collections in college dorms everywhere. This is a great movie for people who are slightly out of it. I had a blast watching this. Those kangaroo guys are really in­ teresting once you get to know them.

App split the doubleheader, winning the first game 9-8 and dropping the second 4-2. Over the weekend the Apps took two of three winning 3-2 and 9-5, but lost 5-3 on Sunday. In the first game on Wednesday, UNCC jumped out to an early 3-0 lead, but Ap­ palachian fought back, scoring two runs in the third and six in the fourth inning to take a 8-5 lead. That lead would be short­ lived as the 49ers came back to tie the game 8-8 in the top of the final inning, but thanks to a lead-off triple by Chris Rodriguez and a sacrifice fly to centerfield by Shane Owenby, the Apps squeaked by 9-8. Starting pitcher Scott Musgrave went half the distance before being relieved by Jason Crews, who went the remainder of the game. Musgrave ana Crews gave up five earned runs on 10 hits. Crews picked up his fourth win of the season moving his record to 4-3 on the year. On the of­ fensive side, Tim Puscian, Scott McDaniel, and Chris Rodriguez all collected three hits as the team combined for 15. In the second game, the Apps offense came to near stop as UNCC starting pitcher Jason Warburton went six innings, giving up only two runs on three hits. The 49ers took a 1-0 lead in the top of the third, but the Mountaineers fought back and took the lead 2-1 in the fourth. Brent Payton collected his team leading sixth homer of the year, hitting a two-run blast, but that would be the end of the App offense. The Mountaineers held on to the lead until the fifth inning, when the 49ers put three runs on the board, to take the final lead of the game. Starting App pitcher Will Reaves had a strong perfor­ mance despite receiving his third loss of the year (1-3). Reaves gave up two earned runs on five hits and struck out three in 5 and 1/3 innings. Matt Russell and Phil Falco combined for the final land 2/3 innings allowing only two hits. The Mountaineers' only offense came from Shane Owenby and Brent Payton, who shared their only three hits. Over the weekend, the Mountaineers journeyed to the wastelands of West Virginia to take on the Thundering Herd. The first game of a doubleheader on Saturday turned out to be a 16-inning marathon that saw five Mountaineer pitchers combine for a 3-2 win. Marshall took a 2-0 lead into the sixth inning when Brent Payton left the park with his seventh homer of the season, see Baseball page 8 Stephen Hensley Assistant Sports Editor ASU Catcher Garret takes a stab at a wild pitch in last weeks action against UNCC (file PhotoI A tale of two track teams Harriers invade Lexington I Lady Apps lose to flu bug In the world of professional baseball, the owners and the players have agrred to kiss, make-up, and play nice as they have ended the strike. The start of the sea­ son has been postponed to late April when teams will begin an abbreviated schedule. But what happens to the replacement players now? They get about $20,000 ter­ mination fee at the end of their engage­ ment to heal their wounds, not bad for a part time job. Furthermore, they get all sorts of cool stuff to wear. Tfip real victims in this situation are the family and friends of the former "ma­ jor" leaguers. For the next couple of months they have to watch tapes of their man making it on Sportscenter as he re­ winds the thing over and over and yells, "That's me, that's me!" Through out the entire season he will let all the guys at the office and at the local bar know in on his inside scoop even when they don't want to hear it. They'll be spouting off anecdotes about the time that one of their foul balls about hit Tommy Lasorda. I think when the two sides ironed out this whole labor thing, no one thought about how annoying these replacement players are going to be when they get back home. They are a menace to the game and they must be stopped for the good of the game. kniJi lifiTTi.ri v, /liio v. j. Perfect ance surrounded the meet.

The Lady Huskies of the University of Connecticut finished with a 35-0 record as they put away national power Tennes­ see for the second time this season on the NCAA women's basketball champion­ ships. This marks only the second time in women's history a team has traveled the path of the unbeaten. Led by All-Everything center Rebecca Lobo, UConn walked the walk and talked the talk on the way to the title. Lobo has become the latest of a recent line of women's hoopsters to gain big time national noteriety. The tall fiery leader of the Lady Huskies follows Sheryl Swoopes of Texas Tech who recently had a shoe named after her by Nike and Carolina's Charlotte Smith, who has won a national championship and even dunked in a game. With any luck, the NCAA can ride this wave of popularity and put women's bas­ ketball in the position they deserve, out of the side show and into the spotlight. Sport or Not With the summer sports season com­ ing up, a lot of people are becoming more active. However, is your activity of choice really a sport? For instance, waterskiing is very enjoy­ able but it is not a sport. It is essentially being drug on a rope by a boat. Who in­ vented that? However, golf, another fun summer ac­ tivity is a sport. Why? Golf requires gret amounts of practice and coordination. Besides, its on television, and anything good enough to be on tv is a sport. Kayaking is not a sport for a couple ol reasons. First of all, if s too much like raft­ ing and that's not a sport either. Further­ more, kayak is a stupid word. It sounds more like a bird than a boat. Fishing is a sport. That might come as a shock, but fishing is covered by The Ap­ palachian sports page and that makes it a sport. The Blowing Rock Trout Derby was one of the most dramatic sporting events this season and will possibly go down as one of the greatest exhibitions ol fishing ever witnessed, really. Besides, the image of little Opie going fishing with Andy is sweet enough to count on its own �The Appalachian, Tuesday 4 ^pri( Page 8 Baseball making the score 2-1.

In the second game, the Moun­ taineer bats found the ball again and jumped out to an early 4-0 lead in the first inning, but the Herd fought back to within one at 5-4 heading into the fourth and then did tie the game at 5-5 in the fifth.

Michael Hagerty of Jacksonville and Jeff Walton of Burlington will host a press conference outside the administra­ tion building Monday to voice their op­ position to portions of the report specifi­ cally recommending affirmative action. Hagerty and Walton, chair and vice chair of the Young Republicans, said they think the university should not move against the national trend to eliminate affirmative action. Instead, the schools should follow the trend to keep up with the nation. "(Senator Jesse) Helms and (Speaker of the House Newt) Gingrich have spoken out against it," Hagerty said. "(Presidential candidate Phil) Gramm is running on the removal of affirmative ac­ tion. Why are we bringing it into the school?" The main objections Hagerty and Walton have against the report include words such as 'incentives,' 'bonuses' and 'special.' "The word 'special' makes me shiver," Hagerty said. Hagerty and Walton also object to the narrow target of the re­ port. "The report is not concentrating on the students as a whole," Hagerty said. "If you really want to make this campus diverse you have to look at everything as a whole." Specific portions of the report with which they disagree target minority groups. They include: •Providing, encouraging and re­ warding training opportunities to assist those seeking career advancement. •Actively seek out women coaches and staff for women's and men's sports teams. •Encourage faculty and staff to provide support for students who are...members of other traditionally underrepresented groups. Hagerty •Specific affirmative action goals and timetables for the hiring of AfricanAmericans, women and other tradition­ ally underrepresented groups. •Develop pre-enrollment pro­ grams to increase the presence of...traditionally underrepresented among the student body including a special open house program for minorities. •Inclusion of affirmative action in the new title for the current office of equal opportunities. •Create new vacancies in depart­ ments and units. •Expand and increase the avail­ ability of financial aid for underrepresented groups. • Provide funds beyond the usual salary and the salary configurations in a department. •Provide expanded scholarships for minority students. "I think there should be many stepping stones, but for everyone," Hagerty said. Chancellor Francis T. Borkowski said he distributed the report widely in the fall to gain as much feedback as pos- Walton sible. Since then, federal and state bud­ get cuts have prevented him from pro­ cessing the results which he had hoped to have done by last Friday's Board of Trust­ ees meeting. He now hopes to have a pre­ liminary draft done by the June meeting. "Many people took time to write very constructive comments on the re­ port," Borkowski said. Jeff Reid, a student intern in the admissions office, is currently tabulating the majority of concerns that have come in. He said most concerns revolve around the definition of diversity, whether it deals with black and white issues or multiculturalism. .. see Diversity page 4 Parking deck may be on the way Allison Penned Reporter Hayes, Seay, Mattern and Mattern have been selected to study the feasibility of a parking deck at Appalachian State University. The preselection committee that chose the firm consisted of members of the traffic committee who wanted to par­ ticipate and other representatives at Ap­ palachian State University. The preselection committee thought the firm was most qualified for the job because of their experience with designing parking decks. Vice Chancellor of Business Affairs Jane Helm said the construction of a deck is not definite yet, but one is likely. "Hayes, Seay, Mattern and Mattern will be coming to Appalachian State University soon," Helm said. "We hope they will come before school is out so they can see the magnitude of the prob­ lem." Helm said she thought it was too early to be able to say much about the possible site or cost for the parking solu­ tion. She said that the upper stadium area may be a possible site, but the firm will be looking at the entire campus to see what is available and to see what the needs are. Action in danger United States senators are ob­ serving National Women's month in a very different way. Women, who have gradually been brought into the workplace dur­ ing the last half century, may no longer be provided jobs simply because of their gender. In the coming months, Senate Majority Leader Bob Dole will introduce legislation to either partially or com­ pletely eliminate federally sponsored af­ firmative action. Affirmative action is defined as action taken to provide equal opportu­ nity in the workplace. Disadvantaged groups such as women and minorities have been provided jobs as well as ad­ vancement opportunities through affir­ mative action. If Dole has his way, affirmative action will be eliminated from the American workplace altogether. Through affirmative action, em­ ployers are given a quota of how many women or minorities they must hire. Quotas are only enforced on employers who fail to meet such guidelines. Here at Appalachian, no such quotas are in place. According to Equal Opportunities Director Dr. Richard Howe, Appalachian chooses its employ­ ees on the basis of experience and quali­ fication. These principles are reinforced in the university's affirmative action plan, which specifies that "decisions on employment are based so as to further the principle of equal employment op­ portunity." At present, university officials are developing a proposal to further equality here at Appalachian. University Representative Jeff Reid is currently evaluating responses to the proposal submitted last year. "Reactions are varied, but most agree that diversity is extremely impor­ tant in an institution of higher learning," said Reid. "The two biggest concerns are see Action page 2 Students bring in spring with a brief fling Reporter spends day jousting, jumping, and joshing at events sponsored byAPPS and SGA Ken Larking Reporter My day at "Spring Fling" included com­ peting in the "Human Fly" with off-cam­ pus Senator Samantha Smith, jousting with Boone Town Councilman Hunter Schofield and also with SGA vice presi­ dential candidate Todd Finch, and of course, eating plenty of barbecue. The "Human Fly" is a contest where people try to attach themselves to a wall by wearing a Velcro body suit. Samantha Smith expressed her feelings about her performance. "I am a little disappointed," she said. "I am going to hit the track, and try again next time it's here." According to Terry Combs, an official at the event, the goal in "Sumo Wrestling" is to shove your competitor out of the ring, or knock him down. David Generous, a freshman geology major, and Chad Edwards, also a fresh­ man, dueled each other in the "Sumo Wrestling" competition. Generous said, "It's harder than it looks." Edwards added, "It's kind of like two upright turtles fighting." The jousting competition is an event where competitors attempt to knock the other off a pylon with a long pole. Boone Town Councilman Hunter Schofield man­ aged to knock me off the pylons all three times. Schofield said of his win, "I was see Fling page 3 The Trampoline Thing was one of the events enjoyed at Spring Fling, (photo by Shane Richardson) h>< Appalachian is published with support from Appalachian's Center for Student Involvement and Leadership.

When complete, the John E. Thomas Academic Support Building will house student-re­ lated services such as financial aid, admissions and the registrar's of­ fice. Groundbreaking for the $9,292,900 building was held March 24 at the construction site on Rivers Street. Chancellor Francis T. [ardii Borkowski said the academic sup­ cated campus-wide audio, video port building will enable the uni­ and computer network. Thomas was known as "a versity to run more efficiently and student's chancellor," attending at students' convenience. "Appalachian is a service- many student functions and walk­ oriented institution.

Action Advertise continued from page 1 Although affirmative ac­ tion has no substantial effect on university employment practices, officials in Women's Concerns and Women's Studies, African Ameri­ can Student Development and Career Development are extremely concerned about the possible ter­ mination of affirmative action. "I'm absolutely against it," said Dr. Melissa Barth, director of Women's Concerns and Women's Studies. "If equity in the workplace is achieved, then there would be no need for affirmative action. Un­ fortunately, this is not the case. It's easy for congressmen who work in a non-discriminatory job to say that discrimination is over." "Affirmative action has been effective, but slow," said Bar­ bara Stewart, director of African American Student Development.

Jackie Hunt, vice president of Appalachian Popular Program­ ming Society said only two people were able to grab the rubber ball. "The purpose [of "Trampoline Thing"] is to have fun," she said. The "Human Bowling Ball" is an event where two people roll a large ball, with someone inside, into a group of tall rubber pins. Pat Todd was rolled around in the large human bowling ball by his friend, Ryan Gregory. Todd said, "It was wonderful." Gregory said, "It was exhilarating." They were able to get a spare. The "Gyro Scope" is a ride where someone is spun around in all directions from their center of gravity. Participant Nikki Jacob said, "I loved it. It was my fourth time." APPS and SGA sponsored "Spring Fling," which marked the end of "Into the Streets." i expires 4-20-95 Special to the Appalachian The vacation of everyone's dreams becomes a re­ ality in the summer of 1996 when Appalachian State University's Alumni Association sponsors a two-week tour of Europe. The journey begins in London and includes stops in Paris, Lucerne, Venice, Florence and Rome. A preview of the upcom­ ing trip will be held April 8 at 1 p.m. at the Broyhill Inn and Con­ ference Center. Alumni and oth­ ers interested in joining the tour can register during the preview for a chance to win $250 of the cost of the trip. The tour leaves Charlotte on June 15, 1996. Two days in London will give the travelers the chance to explore sites such as Buckingham Palace Rnval Alhert Hall, the House of Parliament and Westminster Abbey. A free after­ noon offers time for shopping or exploring London on your own. The group travels by Hovercraft across the English Channel for three days in Paris. Travelers will visit the Arc de Triomphe, the Louvre, Notre Dame Cathedral, the Eiffel Tower and other landmarks. Free time will give travelers the chance to explore Paris individually. Options include Euro Disney, Versailles, Claude Monet's home in the Seine Valley, shopping for French fash­ ions and perfume or relaxing in the city's park. A ride through Fontainbleau Forest and the wine country of Burgundy leads across the Swiss border to Lucerne. High­ lights there include the Lion Monu­ ment, the cobble-stoned streets of Old Town, a cable car ride to the mountain tops of a lake cruise.

"That must be done before anything else," Reid said. Hagerty and Walton do agree with goals along with many others diversifying strategies on the report. Hagerty said emphasiz­ ing diverse course offerings and degree programs to diversify the curriculum is indeed crucial. 'The history books need to include more than white males," Hagerty said. He also agrees with Borkowski that the university needs to diversify but doesn't agree with the methodology. "If they make this (the re­ port) applicable to everybody, they'll hit the target," Hagerty said.

Jay Marlowe Columnist This is the first article of two concerning human rights. The second article will run in next Tuesday's issue of The Appalachian. Should a commitment to human rights be a central principle of foreign policy, or should for­ eign policy avoid idealism when it conflicts with the national interest? Since few people argue for an absolutist stance on either position, the debate is one of emphasis, or priority. The realist argu­ ment is that a country faced with enemies in an armed and dangerous world cannot afford to be idealist, while idealists reject the idea that moral­ ity and national interest are incompatible. They contend that the United States and others are best served by setting high standards of international conduct, thus making U.S. leadership attractive to the people of the world.

Production Department 262-6256 �The Appalachian, Thursday March 30 1995 inion Faculty responds to proposed Quinn fee Ruth Ann Strickland and Zaphon Wilson Guest Columnists We were invited to write a response to the question: should faculty at ASU pay an annual fee for support of campus facilities such as the Quinn Center and swimming pool? A knee-jerk response might be: "Sure, if people use the facilities, they ought to pay for them." Then, a second reaction might be: "Really?" As usual, gut reactions can be swift and inaccurate. Let's ask another question: At a time when university faculty acros; North Carolina are being asked to do more for less (such as: (1) a pro­ posed increase in teaching load now under consideration in the N.C. General Assembly; (2) the General Administration's recent mandate that all non-tenured faculty, teaching assistants and now part-time faculty undergo peer evaluationthereby putting more faculty time and energy into examining some­ one else's teaching and not their own; (3) the proposed university cuts, which will probably translate into fewer faculty positions, also under consideration in the N.C. General Assembly and (4) the ever-linear increase in committee ductible would be raised from $150 a year to $500. The health insur­ ance premiums for faculty with spouses and children also rose. Faculty don't get raises commensurate with inflation. Faculty pay to park on campus. Many faculty pay for their own personal computers. When job candidates are invited on campus, faculty are not reim­ bursed for taking them out to lunch or dinner (almost unheard of in the business world with its expense accounts). There are even faculty who pay for what would be considered standard oper­ ating expenses in any other business, such as mailing and copy­ ing costs. And by the way, faculty pay taxes which support this university and other universities in the system and nu­ merous faculty pay monies into the Appalachian Fund (which often provides scholarships to needy and worthy ASU students). In other words, faculty pay, pay and pay already and we're sick, sick, sick of it. In any other business setting, profes­ sionals receive what is commonly called "fringe benefits." These fringe benefits are part of the overall package used to attract the highest quality employees. Often, the keys to the "company" health club, access to day care for chil­ dren, company-sponsored health care plans, com­ pany cars, and so on are dangled in front of the potential employee as a lure- "come work for us and we'll treat you right." In this attempt to at—————— tract the most meritorious workers, the Fortune 500 companies don't normally ask employees to pay for their fringe benefits. In other words, they ask: "what can we do to attract you- you wonderful bright person- who has so much to offer us?" They don't typically ask: "what are you going to give us- you slob, you piece of chopped liver- so you can work for us?" One professor in the economics department stated that the faculty fee for use of campus support facilities is comparable to the tax col- Second,these COntri, "If students are concerned about tuition... why don't they attack the source of tuition hikes and lack of support for academic programs- their state legislators?"

It is ironic (or perhaps just part of a general trend) that faculty are now being asked to pay for the campus support facilities that they en­ joy. A few years ago, faculty were told that their health insurance de­ lected on gas that goes to fund road work. Let's correct a misperc that this analogy might create.

If students are concerned about tuition and support of academic programs at ASU, why dont they attack the source of tuition hikes and lack of support for academic programs- their state legislators? The monies generated from a fee on faculty who use campus support facilities will probably be minimal and will not address the root problem which is a general lack of societal support for education and educational advancement. (We suggest that see Quinn fee pagefl Editor's note: In the interest of fairness, today's Letters to the Editor consists of all the endorsements received by The Appalachian (excluding those previously printed). SGA presidential candidate endorsements keep rolling in To the Editor: First of all, I would like to ex­ press my thanks to those students who voted in the recent SGA elec­ tion. From the beginning of this campaign, Billy and I committed ourselves to making sure that the students of ASU have the oppor­ tunity to make an informed deci­ sion about the future of their uni­ versity, and to get it through to the students that they have a voice on this campus. That voice was heard. The students have shown that they want a change. Some supported a change with Billy and myself, and some with Darby and Robyn, but the under­ lying voice was the same. Now, with the election runoff between Paschal/Finch and Weaver/Mar­ tin, we urge those who supported change to band together to achieve it; to band together in support of Darby Weaver and Robyn Martin. Darby and Robyn continually ran a clean and fair campaign, showing professional courtesy at every turn, representing what we feel that SGA needs. The Student Government Association is char­ tered to be a fair and equal rep­ resentation of the students of ASU. A representation which does not show partiality, but one of integrity, truth, and under­ standing for all members of the Appalachian State University community. With these things in mind, Billy and I wholeheartedly endorse and support Darby Weaver and Robyn Martin for the positions of SGA president and vice president. Paul Burleson ASU Box 18706 To the Editor: On Wednesday and Thursday the student body will make one of the most important decisions affecting us next year. They will vote for the president and vice president of our student government in a runoff election. I hope, for the future of our uni­ versity, students will elect Ray Paschal and Todd Finch to these positions. Both of these candidates have experience in Appalachian's stu­ dent government, as well as in­ volvement in other areas of cam­ pus. I have had the opportunity to work with both of them, and I have no doubt that they will work entirely for the students. Their commitment to the university and their desire to see Appalachian move forward should impress ev­ ery student. Each of these candidates has proven that they care about stu­ dent concerns and issues. Their platform covers issues from the li­ brary to food services, to even es­ tablishing campus clean-up days. All of these ideas have been researched and are possible. The only way to get these goals and ideas accomplished is to let your voice be heard and elect Paschal and Finch in the runoff election. George Teague Concerned Student ASU Box 13272 which is something other than Pashcal/Finch! Also, I feel that your paper has no business endorsing a particu­ lar candidate, because the Appa­ lachian is a student body newspa­ per and should represent all of the students' concerns (not just the staff's). If you print something I disagree with, there is no alternate publication to buy in your stead, and I can't decide not to buy the newspaper because it's free. I feel your coverage is poor, biased to an extreme, unprofessional, and with­ out an iota of integrity. Due to your recent coverage, myself and at least a dozen people I know have vocally cursed The Appalachian, and I am retiring from reading your publication ... in addition I am encouraging my friends and colleagues to do the same, in effect creating a de facto boycott of The Appalachian until a public apology to the student body is issued. To the Editor: Hard work, dedication, moti­ vation, leadership and experience; these are all the qualities that the next president and vice president of SGA must hold. I feel that in order to assure that these qualities are met, we, as a student body, must elect Ray Paschal and Todd Finch. Their unparalleled experi­ ence and unmatched leadership will give ASU the boost that it takes to move all of us in the right di­ rection. Jessica Edens Panhellenic Council President ASU Box 11893 To the Editor: I have two items I would like to address: I support Darby Weaver and Robyn Martin in the SGA election. Their platform is praiseworthy and they would make exemplary stu­ dent representatives. They are exactly what this campus needs, and I shudder to think if Paschal/ Finch are victorious... it is indeed time for a change. Hopefully, with the voters of Burleson and Bunting supporting Darby and Robyn, the students will get what they want, Ben O'Grady ASU Box 08692 To the Editor: After hearing both Weaver/ Martin and Paschal/Finch speak, I was content with the Paschal/ Finch ticket. Not only did I find their platform innovative and fea­ sible, but they listened to the con­ cerns and ideas of the students. Cliff Fitte ASU Athlete (Football) ASU Box 11675 To the Editor: Think of all the things SGA does for our students. Homecom­ ing, recycling, Mountaineer Escort, and "Into the Streets" are only a few. As a student leader I know the hard work it takes to make stu­ dent programs like these work. Ray Paschal and Todd Finch are the only candidates who also un­ derstand the work behind these programs. There is no doubt in my mind that both tickets care about voicing student concerns and will do just that if elected. There is only ONE ticket though, that can get the work SGA is responsible for done- Ray Pas­ chal and Todd Finch. I would hate to see events and programs as vi­ tal to Appalachian as Homecom­ ing and Mountaineer Escort be less than they have been for lack of experience in SGA. This goes for other programs as well. Ray and Todd understand what their job would be if elected and know how to do that job well. This is something I cannot say for any other ticket. Holly Kirksey Club Council Coordinator ASU Box 17722 To the Editor: An effective leader is someone who is knowledgeable of the group charge, has experience, can speak and listen well, and can maintain good rapport with peers and men­ tors. Ray Paschal is undoubtedly meeting these qualifications and surpassing them. ASU has a sound history of strong SGA leaders and I have no doubt that the Paschal/ Finch ticket will continue to up­ hold these ideals. Meg Dyar Delta Zeta Officer ASU Box 10968 To the Editor: The following people have announced their support and en­ dorsement of the Weaver/Martin presidential and vice presidential campaign: Thomas Bennet- President of the Adult Student Network Brandi Duckworth- President of the North Carolina Association of Educators D. Kirk Hewitt- President of Playcrafters Charlotte Lyons- President of Stu­ dents ActivelyVolunteering for the Environment Robin Mulholland- Student Asso­ ciation of Social Workers Submitted by Samantha Smith ASU Box 10118 To the Editor: Ray Paschal and Todd Finch are the most qualified ticket for SGA president/vice president. Ray has been involved with SGA for three years already. In addi­ tion to this he has served on sev­ eral university committees, been Chairperson of the Community Relations Board, an orientation leader and been extremely active in the UNC Association of Student Government. He has received en­ dorsements not just from Appala­ chian leaders, but from leaders across the state. Ray has also been responsible for the tuition-on-installment plan, and organized the largest voter registration drive in Wa­ tauga. Todd Finch has experience as a senator, served on several uni­ versity committees, is a delegate to the UNC-AS G, and is in more honor societies than I knew ex­ isted. Todd has worked very hard this semester to get the library hours extended, which will begin soon. As for the issue of diversity, Ray and Todd are going to estab­ lish a cabinet position to deal di­ rectly with that issue. Ray and Todd not only have the experience to be ASU's SGA president and vice-president, they have earned it through their hard work and dedication to the students of ASU. Tim Gray Mountaineer Escort Director ASU Box 16097 To the Editor: As the elections for next year's president and vice president are upon us I believe there are two candidates that can successfully lead the SGA for the students- Ray Paschal and Todd Finch.

Leon Lewis Department of English To the Editor: The chancellor's diversity re­ port is one interesting document. Hopefully everyone here at Appa­ lachian understands the need for a diverse campus, however, this is not the way to do it. This proposal starts off by stating that our uni­ versity must be fair and equitable. I agree with that statement. All Appalachian policies and pro­ grams should be color blind.

We've been faculty at ASU for Be time. Being able to train, work out, swim, and go to aerobics as well as engage in other health and leisure activities is a tremen­ dous booster. These programs boost morale and health of faculty, making it easier for us to face an­ other day and to deliver our best inside and outside of the class­ room. In general, fringe benefits such as the health and leisure pro­ grams increase quality of life and job satisfaction. We have col­ leagues who work harder because they can play harder. We have colleagues with sharper minds in the classroom because their bod- ies are healthy. We wonder whether this petty desire to inflict more costs on faculty (who are al­ ready operating under cost con­ straints) is worthwhile. Clearly, we think it is not. This movement toward levy­ ing more costs on faculty is not an expression of appreciation; on the contrary, it's an open expression of hostility. Other interested parties in levying a fee on faculty should ask more questions- in short, think! It is just possible that a truly deliberative and thoughtful policy might result. v< Creatures Mb MMMtt mm took out the "special" things in the proposal I believe we could still diversify the campus.

If you've been wondering how to make the most of your time here at ASU, or your parents have been asking what major you are going to study, the Aca­ demic Advising Center has some strate­ gies for you and your parents.

Affrilachian Poets come to ASU John Lane Assistant Features Editor The Affrilachian Poets are hold­ ing a reading Monday April 3, in I.G. Greer Auditorium. The three writers will be displaying and discussing the African American influence on the arts in the Ap­ palachian region. Though the writers hope to ac­ centuate the commonalties of all people in the American South, regardless of gen­ der, class or ethnicity, they also hope to promote a group they feel have been overooked: African American writers of the South. They believe there is much more :0 Appalachian Literature than is revealed jy Euro- Americans. All three writers hail from Ken­ tucky, but there backgrounds and styles are diverse. The three featured writers are: Frank X. Walker, from Danville, Kentucky. He is a member of the creative writing faculty for the Kentucky Governor's school for the Arts and the Carnagie Center for Literacy.

To do this, the student, the oncampus faculty advisor, and IEL are all involved in planning the program. Most interns work in or around gov­ ernment positions in Washington. Since they consider it a "power" city, they feel the rewards can be evn greater, even for the interns they place out­ side of government dealings. Regardless of the specif­ ics, all interns are involved in four days of work and one day of study per week. Two classes are taken on the fifth day, which gives IEL a distinct academic base.

They only scored two more runs in top of the seventh, drawing the score to 11-5. Once again the Hokies exploded offen­ sively, scoring one run in the seventh and eight in the eighth to finish the trouncing at 22-5. App pitcher Larry Taylor gave up the final nine runs on 11 hits and one walk. This was a game of missed opportu­ nities, said ASU head baseball coach James Morris. "We should have gone into the final inning tied, but we did not play well defensively. Most of their runs came in three big innings, all of which we could have come out much better but we missed a couple of fly balls and allowed them to take control." The Mountaineer highlights in this game were not too plentiful. Scott Musgrave went 2-for-3 with a walk and Scott Garrett hit a two-run blast, his third of the year. App starting pitcher Garth Armstrong was charged with the loss, moving his record to an unrepresentative 2-4. Denny Wagner (2-0) picked up the win for the Hokies. "This game doesn't take anything away from the team, said coach Morris. "I still have every confidence in the team's abili­ ties, this kind of thing just happens once in a while."

Appalachian State's women's basket­ ball team has won at least nineteen games in each of the last two seasons. In the last ten years, ASU has ventured into the NCAA toumey twice (1990 against Mary­ land, and in '91 versus Florida State) and to the Women's National Invitational Tournament (1987). Despite falling to East Tennessee State in the Southern Con­ ference tournament over spring break, Coach Linda Robinson's Lady Mountain­ eers are probably one of the best college sports teams you never heard of—and most of you haven't heard, if the Moun­ taineers' 400-plus home game attendance is any indication. It's strange that a team which perenially approaches twenty wins does not attract more support from its class­ mates and community. The men's 199495 edition regularly drew fans who were, if not packed to the top of Varsity Gym, at least numerous enough to make their presence felt and heard. The guys may not have fulfilled every pre-season expec­ tation, but records aside, their season can hardly be dubbed a disappointment. And it's largely because of the fans. Can you imagine Duke's Cameron Crazies deserting their Devils? It didn't happen this year, even as the Dookies crafted a "sub-par" season. A half-filled Smith Center? Bobby Knight coaching his Hoosiers before a crowd of, say, one thou­ sand? The spotlight on women's ball has brightened in the last year or three. It's difficult to tell if the extra attention is the result of better play, more exposure, or any combination of other, unknown fac­ tors. What is unquestionable is that these talented women deserve more of an au­ dience, or at least the opportunity to gather it. The unbeaten UConn Lady Hus­ kies are as formidable as the UNLV teams of the early 90's seemed. Not that any­ one could tell from looking. Looking hasn't even been an option: prior to the NCAA tourney, no women's team had ap­ peared on national television more than twice. Take note of a few weird little discrep­ ancies. Why is the men's Final Four played on Saturday and Monday, while the la­ dies are resigned to compete on two straight days for the last games of the sea­ son? A free day to build-up the women's championship might help forge more sup­ port. Why is it that nary a station even men­ tions the scores for some of these games? If there's to be no highlights, the final count would be some solace, anyway. Women's ball is not, as one USA To­ day reader wrote, "just less exciting than men's." If you believe this, maybe you should rethink your definition of "excit­ ing"—and consider the word "variety."

Legendary coach John Wooden won his tenth and final championship with the Bruins in 1975. In 1995, UCLA hopes to repeat their past success. Under Naismith National Coach of the Year Jim Harrick, the Bruins have compiled a 29-2 record and entered the tournament as the number one seed in the Western region.

Stackhoyse's 70 points in the tournament thus far have lofted his career total to i062 points. He is the third fastest to reach this total in Carolina history behind only J. R. Reid and Michael Jordan. j Wg JS[ jHf Rasheed Wallace with 16.8 points a game is getting things done on the other end for the Tarheels as well. Wallace had 89 blocks this season, setting a new Carolina record and surpassing Warren Martin's old record of 81. The key for the Tarheels this weekend will be rebounding. Caro­ lina has only outrebounded their opposition in 18-33 games this sea­ son. With three other teams in the Final Four having dominant big men, this will be of utmost importance.

Though Arkansas is no stranger to the Final Four this is the first trip for the Razorbacks to Seattle. Arkansas has never played a basket­ ball game in Seattle. In fact, they have never played in the state of Washington. |? . •>. A > Arkansas' fame against North Carolina will be their 38th game of the season. The Razorbacks have complied a mark of 31-6 over the course of the season. They have more No. 1 victories than any other team in college basketball. Arkansas' impressive record includes 14 games that were decided by five or fewer points. Three of these games have gone to overtime. The game against Syracuse and Memphis were overtime contest played on Arkansas' way to becoming Midwest regional Champs. Player has come from the play of senior Ed O'Bannon. O'Bannon has averaged over 20 points a game this season to go along with 8.1 rebounds. His three point field goal percentage of 45.8 makes him a threat from any­ where on the court. Joining O'Bannon in the Bruin attack is point guard lyus Edney. Edney, a top candidate for the Francis Pomeroy Naismith Award as the best player in the nation under six foot, leads the Bruins with seven assists and 2.5 steals per game. UCLA will depend on some youthful talent to help their stars in the Final Four. Sophomore Charles O'Bannon, little brother of Ed, is averaging 13.5 points a game and leads the Bruins with 36 blocks this season. Freshmen Toby Bailey and J.R. Henderson have made a big splash with the team, scoring 10.3 and 9.7 points a game respectively. 30 63 247 95 27 37 31 8 7 4 SUITS a La Carte Did you know SIC* . vVv K*- Am Rentals Available UP!

David Goodman is a freshman on the Appalachian golf team, but you would never know by looking at his scores this year Not only has he made a contri­ bution to the team this year; he has led the team in scor­ ing on three different occa­ sions, the last time was in the teams tournament at Furman. Goodman is no stranger to success on the golf course. He has played com­ petitively since he was in the eighth grade. "I played in some national tour­ naments when I was younger," said Goodman. Goodman got a real taste of success when he played on his Salisbury High School team. Salisbury won two 3-A state cham­ pionships, and was runner-up an­ other year, during Goodman's gling. This situation is magnified by the fact that he made the move from a very successful high school program. "It's frustrating," said Goodman. "I know we are capable of so much more. We have a lot of good players on the team but when we get to a tournament.... It's frustrating." One thing is for sure. Goodman is a team player. He does have some indi­ vidual goals, though. "I would like to be a pretty good college player by the time I graduate," said Goodman. By a "good col­ lege player," he means - David Goodman someone who can consis­ tently shoot 75 ani under As for the remainder of his Boone, Goodman is happy with his freshman year Goodman said, "I decision to come to Appalachian.

However, he is very open about The only problem that he has run into since coming to ASU is the fact that the team is more im­ dealing with the frustration of portant than he as an individual playing for a team that is strug- is. "I hope that our teams get bet­ ter as I become a sophomore, jun­ ior and senior,"he said. "I remem­ ber how much fun we had in high school. I would love to see the team improve, even more than I would like to see myself improve." As for Goodman's game, he says that it is solid. He hits the bail straight and long and has a good short game. With that com­ bination there is no telling how far his game can go. fourth stint in high school. Goodman said that he chose Appalachian for "a bunch of rea­ sons. I love the mountains, and I knew that I could play golf up here and that is something I really wanted to do."

Appalachian State University, Boone NC 28608 Paschal/ Finch, Weaver/Martin vie for presidency Ken Larking Paul Burleson and Billy Bunting were eliminated since they received the least number of votes, 560. Reporter Students will vote in a run-off for the Student Government Association presidential elections be­ tween Ray Paschal / Todd Finch and Darby Weaver / Robyn Martin. A run-off was de­ clared when none of the can­ didates received more than 50% of the vote. Paschal/ Finch had 42.8% of the vote with 1033 votes, followed by Weaver/Martin with 34%, or 818 votes.

Tiffany Lohman Assistant News Editor Presidential and Vice-Presi­ dential Candidates Darby Weaver and Robyn Martin say that they stand on their issues and not their gender. Weaver and Martin did, X 34% 42.8% however, bring up the gender issue at speeches they gave at two sorority meet­ ings. Weaver said, "We mentioned it (the gender issue) at sororities because we thought it was an issue for women." WeaVer and Martin spoke at the Delta Zeta weekly meeting on March 13. According to Jenni Black, a Delta Zeta in attendance, the gender is­ sue was brought up by the ticket. "It didn't bother me,' said Black. "I wouldn't use that (the gender issue) as a basis for my vote." According to Jennifer Ramsey, I Kappa Delta, Weaver and Martin also spoke about the gender issue at a weekly Kappa Delta sorority meeting. "I think it should be based on who's most qualified for the job," said Ramsey. Ramsey also said that Weaver and Martin claimed that they would be the first president and vice president that were women. According to past Student Gov­ ernment Association records, Weaver and Marti n would be the fifth all-women ticket since 1938 if they were elected to represent students in SGA. "It is interesting that gender is not an issue when the candidates are all men," said Pam Williamson, chair­ person of the Boone area chapter of the National Organization of Women. "Gen­ der is only an issue when women run." Williamson also said that women can bring a unique perspective to government, and that the issue should be platforms and not gender.

Appalachian student Daniel Wil­ son Berry, 20, of Winston-Salem, died instandy when he was thrown from his 1975 Corvette convertible during a head-on collision on U.S. 105, March 15. N.C. State Trooper Sgt. David Searcy estimated Berry was travelling at a speed of more than 100 mph. Dr. Brent Hall, Watauga County pathologist, said a toxicology test revealed cocaine and THC, the active ingredient in marijuana, in Berry's system at the time of his death. Berry died of a closed head injury, Hall said. Brandon Cole, a friend of Berry's, said Berry was always a charismatic indi­ vidual. "He loved life and wanted to live it to the fullest," Cole said. "Sometimes it was too full." The two passengers in the car, Laura Clayton and Matos were also thrown from the car and airlifted to Bap­ tist where they remained critical until Thursday when Clayton was upgraded to See Victim page 2 Former Student Government Association Presidential and Vice Presidential candidates Paul Burleson and Billy Bunting have formally en­ dorsed the ticket of Darby Weaver and Robyn Martin in this week's run­ off election. Burleson said the turnout in ast week's election for his ticket as well as Weaver and Martin's voiced the students' desire for change. "The student have shown that they want a change," Burleson said in a written endorsement. "Some supported a change with Billy and myself, and some with Darby and Robyn, but the underlying voice was the same." Burleson encouraged stu­ dents who voted for his ticket to vote for Weaver and Martin in the run-off election. He wrote the two women showed "professional courtesy at ev­ ery turn, representing what we feel that SGA needs." Burleson said Weaver and Martin ran a clean campaign. SGA Elections Chair Sean Coggin said Weaver and Martin's campaign did have financial viola­ tions. Coggin said the ticket failed to submit receipt(s) 24 hours in advance of using new campaign stickers. The elections committee sent a written reprimand to the ticket this morning prohibiting Weaver and Martin from using the stickers within 24 hours of the elections committee receiving the receipt. If Weaver and Martin do not turn in the receipt by 2:30 p.m. to­ day, they will disqualify themselves from the election. Cassie Wright, a former member of Burleson and Bunting's campaign committee, said she now supports Ray Paschal and Todd Finch because of the similarities in their platform and their "experience and dedication." "Ray Paschal and Todd Finch and more open to the concerns of the whole student body rather than an exclusive section," said Wright in her written endorsement. Wright said Burleson and Bunting did offer her the opportunity to endorse Weaver and Martin. How­ ever, she said, she could not find enough platform items with which she agreed. "I'm Greek so I have differ­ ent views than Darby and Robyn," Wright said. "They're the ones who kept bringing up ACES (the Appala­ chian Community and Environmen­ tal Stewardship) in senate and I'm strongly against that." published with support from Appalachian's Center for Student Involvement and Leadership.

This year is the first year in which The Appalachian has devoted a full page solely to reader opinion and letters. Each Thurs­ day (we would like it to run every paper, but are limited by ad revenue and the volume of letters), The Appalachian runs an Opinion page in which it prints virtu­ ally every Letter to the Editor received. The Appalachian goes to great lengths to ensure a well-balanced page. This in­ cludes soliciting articles from supporters from both sides of an issue (ACES) and letters from each candidate (SGA elec­ tion). However, it is the letters from our readers who ultimately dictate the com­ position of the Opinion page. We encour­ age our readers to send letters to the edi­ tor, whether they are stances on issues or endorsements for political candidates. We will print them. The Opinion page is there to be the voice of our readers; it is up to those individuals to utilize it. We challenge the students to look at the facts and create their own opinion. A great philosopher once said that it is a true test of one's self to hold in each hand an opposing side, and still retain the ability to function. Those views expressed by our readers on the Opinion page are their own, just as The Appalachian's staff edi­ torial is merely the opinion and viewpoint of 13 individuals, not the end-all say-all that many make it out to be.

He would tell his followers, "The white man wants black men to stay im­ moral, unclean, and ignorant. As long as we stay in these conditions we will keep on begging him and he will control us.

To say anything different would be, well, lazy. Endorsements for candidates pour in Paschal/Finch are "doers & motivators" To the Editor: Ray Paschal and Todd Finch are two fine young men with the qualifications and experience needed to uphold the position of SGA president and vice president. Their platform clearly addresses all areas of stu­ dent concerns. We compassionately be­ lieve that Paschal and Finch have the de­ termination, motivation, and organization to fulfill the presidency. We have complete confidence in Ray and Todd because they have proven them­ selves as leaders with experience. They have realistic goals that can be achieved here at Appalachian State University. Once again, Ray and Todd are superior candidates for president and vice presi­ dent. Rhonda Beard President/Criminal Justice Club, Senior Committee ASU Box 10752 Shami Chandra Secretary/Criminal Justice Club, Club Council Advisory Board ASU Box 11865 To the Editor: As a first year senator to the Student Government Association I have tried to look for those who I feel are the doers and motivators to help encourage me to fur­ ther myself as a representative. Within my first two senate meetings it was al­ ready becoming apparent who held a con­ fident voice in SGA. Upon my first time meeting Ray Paschal he encouraged me to take stands and speak out for what I believe in as a representative of the stu­ dent body. Todd Finch as well has been as equally supportive in encouraging me to strengthen my voice as a senator. As a newcomer to the senate as well as to the school, I have needed people to look up to, to help me decide what goals I want to set for myself as a representative, but more importantly, as an individual. Both Ray and Todd are more than qualified for the positions they seek and I personally see that both are personally dedicated to furthering Appalachian State University. If Ray and Todd are not victo­ rious in the upcoming election it would not be a personal loss to Ray and Todd, but would be an enormous loss to Appa­ lachian. Jason Yepko SGA Senator ASU Box 08842 Weaver/Martin stand for change, diversity To the Editor: I am an African-American student that wants to be accepted on this campus. I want to have all the rights as everyone else. I have had long discussions with Weaver and Martin about views on diver­ sity. Weaver and Martin listen to ideas from students about ways of increasing diversity. I want a president that I can go to when I feel that I have been treated wrongly. I like to feel wanted as a fellow student with ideas and not as a token black on campus. I support Weaver and Martin in all the aspects of their campaign. Weaver and Martin are just what ASU is in need of to make a change in the school for the bet­ ter. Don't be a fool, vote Weaver and Martin. I guarantee that you will have a sound voice on campus. Brandi Cody BSA Advisory Board Member ASU Box 14254 Write The Appalachian at ASU Box 9025 To the Editor: As leader of the College Democrats and an active member of the student sen­ ate, I, Thomas Flippin, endorse Darby Weaver and Robyn Martin for president and vice president of student government. To hold this position one must have superior leadership qualities and excellent public speaking ability. Weaver and Mar­ tin have displayed that they are head and shoulders above their competition in these categories. This Wednesday and Thursday I sin­ cerely urge everyone to vote for a change on this campus. We must ban together to elect the best candidates- Darby Weaver and Robyn Martin.

(Photo by Shane Richardson.) bility to go to my brothers and sisters and Angie Brady Is it just me or have comedies taken a severe nosedive in recent years? Every other comedy that comes out seems to strive to be as disgusting and imma­ ture as it can possibly be. The latest dreck in this series of mishaps is "Major Payne" (PG-13), a new version of "Stripes" directed at grade school kids. Damon Wayans (from television's "In Living Color") stars as the tide char­ acter, an oddly sadistic ex-Marine turned JROTC trainer. What is Major Payne like? Imagine if Steve Urkel ("Family Matters") joined the Marines, went gung-ho ballis­ tic, enjoyed torturing and killing people, had two gold front teeth and loved clean­ ing his pistol blindfolded. He's really weird. Payne is booted out of the Ma­ rines because there are no more missions left. Everyone who needs to be killed is already dead. So Payne reluctantly takes on the job of training a bunch of lazy, mis­ fit cadets in a JROTC program. He turns the military school into a torturous hell that Paris Island graduates would fear. "Major Payne" is so unbelievably awful that it makes me feel bad for trash­ ing "Dumb and Dumber." Compared to this dredge, the Jim Carrey movie is up there with "One Flew Over the Cuckoo's Nest." The main running joke in the movie is the word "turd," an obnoxious gutter word for you-know- what. Another wonderful example of the "humor" used in this movie is the way Payne picks on some of his pupils. I'm not into the silly politically correct sensi­ tivity movement, but making fun of deaf and blind kids is pushing the envelope a tad too far. Damon Wayans is a talented co­ median with a lot of potential, he was great on "The Tonight Show with Jay see other people's perspective.

The Mountaineers began their home stand on Wednesday with a doubleheader against UNC-Asheville. In the top of the first inning, ASU pitcher Will Reeves gave up 1 run off 2 hits and an error. From that point on, however, the Bulldogs faced a black wall of pitching and defense and a golden onslaught of hitting. In the bottom of the first, ASU leadoff batter Scott McDaniel began the dam­ age by rounding the bases on a triple and a UNC-A error. The next four batters reached base and eventually scored. In all, 14 Mountaineers stepped to the plate in the first inning, scoring 10 runs on 7 hits and 2 Bulldog errors. Reeves settled into his game in the sec­ ond and third innings, giving up no runs on no hits and striking out one. Then in the bottom of the fourth, the ASU squad picked up where it left off with 5 runs on 5 hits, sparked by Shane Owenby's leadoff ground-rule double over the left field fence. Stephen Maynard and Scott Musgrave came in for relief and combined to hold Asheville to no runs on two hits in 4 innings. They were helped by solid ASU defense, including a diving snag by short­ stop Michael Berrier in the fifth inning. The Mountaineers whipped the Bulldogs 15-1. Good pitching and defense were again the story for the second game of the Rc Fe on en thi mi m< lir he th W g< d< m ui tr a: A i tennis goes 1-1 doubleheader, although Ap­ palachian decided to have some mercy on the Bulldog pitchers. Sophomore Larry Taylor pitched five scoreless innings for the Mountaineers, giving up three hits and strik­ ing out two batters. Designated hitter David Young took over on the offen­ sive side. He went 2 for 3 with a sacrifice fly and 2 RBIs. Scott McDaniel added a home run and Jason Crews pitched 2 scoreless innings to finish the game and the Bull­ dogs, 4-0. On Friday, the Mountain­ eers fought hard but fell short against the Kent University Golden Flash. Down 3-1 af­ ter 3 innings, ASU awoke in the fourth with two walks and an RBI from both Musgrave and Young to knot the score at 3 apiece. In the eighth inning, Ap­ palachian had the bases loaded with no outs, but Young and Chris Rodriguez struck out and Tommy Skul grounded out to end the in­ ning. Thanks to tough pitching and defense, highlighted by h** left fielder Brent Payton's div' ing catch in the eighth, Kent also went scoreless and the teams remained tied until the final inning. With two outs ^ see Baseball page 7 Reporter iil! Appalachian's men's tennis team split a pair of matches late last week, losing an extremely close match to East Tennessee State and defeating Radford University on the road. The Mountaineers faced East Ten­ nessee last Wednesday at home and came away with a near victory over the preseason favorite to win the Southern Conference title, losing 4-3. The App's number one seed doubles team of Manuel Zapata and Zach Sharpe defeated Juan Deangelo and Dean Houlzet, 8-5. Deangelo and Houlzet are a nationally ranked doubles team. The number two seed doubles, Pedro Lopes and Greg May, lost 8-4 and third seed doubles Itay Shimony and Ben Gerace lost 8-3, giving the Bucs an early 1-0 lead. The App netters needed to take four of the six singles matches, but could only come away with three in a valiant effort. Top seed Zapata dropped the first match 4-6 and 3-6, number two seed Lopes won the next match 7-6 and 6-4, and third seed Shimony dropped his match to the returning Southern Conference champion number two seed, Antonio Roveles, 4-6 and 3-6. The Mountaineers took two of the final three matches as fourth seed Greg May won 6-7, 6-4, and 6-2, fifth seed Sharpe won 6-1 and 6-1, but sixth seed J.C. Moeller dropped the final match 4-6 and 4-6, completing the Buccaneer victory 4-3. "I thought we played much better than we did against Georgia Southern and we were more focused on our matches," said Mike Kernodle, men's tennis coach. Then on Saturday, the team traveled to Radford to finish off the week.

It was this memory of their previous match comeback that clinched the day for the Thundering Herd. Marshall against Georgia Southern. Marshall defeated Appalachian won the first four singles matches. The streak was stopped by Bur­ by a 4-3 score. However, the match was close enough to help ton, who won a hotly contested Baseball continued from page 6 and a man on base in the ninth, Mountaineer pitcher Matt Russell gave up a 2-run shot over the right field fence by Steve Smetana, put­ ting the Golden Flash on top for good, 5-3. The Mountaineers began a 3game weekend series slowly against nationally-ranked Georgia Southern, but they refused to come up empty. In the first game, ASU waited until the eighth inning to score. A 5-run flurry in the inning proved to be too little too late as Appalachian fell, 8-5. The top of the seventh was the key point in the contest. Pitcher Jason Crews had given up 5 runs in the game and appeared to be tiring, but coach Jim Morris left him in. With 2 out, the Eagles' Steve Wilson hit a 3-run homer and Georgia South­ ern went on to win by 3, 8-5. ASU pitcher Garth Armstrong was nearly untouchable in the sec­ ond game of Saturday's doubleheader. Besides giving up an inside-the-park home run in the sixth, Armstrong literally halted the Eagle offense, allowing 4 hits and striking out 6 Georgia South­ ern batters in 7 innings. The Mountaineer hitting struggled also, though. But with the teams tied at 1 run apiece in the bottom of the sixth, the Eagle defense disintegrated. Danny Allard reached first base on an er­ ror, and Shane Owenby advanced him to second on a single. That was followed by a walk, another GSU error, and another walk to bring home 2 runs on only one hit. Armstrong struck out 2 in the top of the seventh to secure the ASU victory, 3-1. The win was the first in 17 at­ tempts against Georgia Southern. It was also the Mountaineers' first defeat of a nationally ranked team in Boone since1991 (Virginia Tech - ranked 21st).

HWY 321, BLOWING ROCK match 7-5, 6-2. Phalin followed Burton up winning the final singles match of the day 7-6, 6-0. The loss dropped the women's overall record this spring to 2-9. The Marshall match was the last on the road for the squad for a con­ siderable stretch. Today at 2:30, ASU faces off with Western Carolina. This match marks the first in a five game home stand. Appalachian will be look­ ing to this stretch to improve there overall record and gain momen­ tum before the conference tourna­ ment starts. Sunday's home finale was no less exciting than the previous day's games. Georgia Southern came out strong, scoring six runs in the first 3 innings. Appalachian began the second inning with con­ secutive singles by Brent Payton, Danny Allard and Musgrave, and came away from the inning with three runs. They added a run in the fifth and the eighth and went into the bottom of the ninth down 7-5. Payton led off the inning with a double. After Allard struck out, Musgrave walked and Tommy Skul followed with a single to load the bases with 1 out. Chris Rodriguez then slapped a sharp single to right, scoring Payton and setting up a play at the plate. GSU right fielder Sy Jones made a great throw home to catcher Steve Wil­ son, nailing Musgrave and preserv­ ing the win for the Eagles, 7-6. The Mountaineers are 9-15-1 this season, with five 1-run losses. Their next game is Tuesday at Vir­ ginia Tech, after which they return home for a Wednesday doubleheader against UNC-Charlotte at 1:30 p.m. Tennis continued from page 6 Apps bounced back from their loss to Radford in January, to come away with the 5-2 win. Coach Kernodle switched the seeds around a little for this match and it seemed to work pretty well as Pedro Lopes competed at the number one seed and won 6-2 and 6-1, Zapata dropped his match in three sets 6-2, 4-6, and 6-7, and third seed Zach Sharpe lost 6-7 and 5-7. The Apps turned it around and won the next three matches. Fourth seed Greg May won 6-3 and 6-3, fifth seed Shimony won 6-3 and 6-1, and sixth seed Moeller won in three sets 6-3, 6-7, and 63. Having already won all three of the doubles matches 8-4, 8-6, and 8-4 respectively, the Moun­ taineer netters came away with the 5-2 win, setting the tone for a very tough upcoming weekend. The Apps will face TennesseeChattanooga at home on Friday, then travel to South Carolina to take on Wofford on Saturday and Furman on Sunday. "We beat UTC last year for the first time in several years and we have a good chance to beat them this year," said coach Kernodle. "We have a very tough weekend and we are capable of winning all three matches, but it is going to be physically tough playing three consecutive days." �Quinn Center Appalachian News Official University News And Announcements Career Development Center Workshops are scheduled throughout the semester.

Darby Weaver and Robyn Mar­ tin and Ray Paschal and Todd Finch an­ swered questions from senators. Paul Burleson and Billy Bunting, the third ticket, were unable to attend the meeting. A letter they had written was read at the meeting by Senator Michael Hagerty. In the letter, Burleson expressed his regret for not being able to be there. "Due to short notice, we experienced a scheduling conflict," Burleson said. During the question and answer session, Weaver explained her "Appala­ chian 2000" plan. "Unless students are involved in a club or organization, they feel they don't have an outlet for their concerns," she said. "With our plan ev­ eryone will have a chance to voice their concerns." The Weaver and Martin platform deals a lot with diversity on campus. Weaver explained that she would be work­ ing with Chancellor Francis T. Borkowski on diversity. Off- campus Senator Dan Norris asked Weaver her views on bike lanes. Weaver explained, "We would like to see more bike lanes." In reference to their platform goal to support construction of bike lanes on the "Boone loop," Weaver said the town of Boone has already planned to construct these bike lanes.

Study Abroad adjusts to fluctuating dollar Jay Konstantaras Reporter As the U.S. dollar continues to fluctuate, concern has been raised by both faculty and students planning to study abroad. For the past two weeks, the dol­ lar has steadily declined against the Japa­ nese yen, the German mark and several other European curren­ cies. According to Associate Economics Professor Rick Kirkpatrick, the recent deprecia­ tion of the dollar can be attrib­ uted to the failed passage of the Balanced Budget Amendment in Congress, as well as the recent U.S. bailout of Mexico. The instability of the dollar has drawn the attention of market­ ing, geography and art department advis­ ers in charge of trips to England, France, Denmark, Norway, Sweden and several other countries. Professor Noyes Long, trip leader for the art department trip to Italy and Switzerland, is somewhat concerned. "We're facing circumstances we have no control over," said Long. Although the trip's price is unlikely to increase, certain line item expenses such as food and hotel costs may be higher than expected and such increases could have an impact on the program costs. Dr. Duane Daggett, leader of the management department's trip to "We're facing circumstances we have no control over." Scandinavia, has also been hit hard by the decline of the dollar. Costs on the Scandi­ navian trip to Denmark, Sweden and Nor­ way have risen almost 15 percent since last fall. "When we budgeted this trip in the fall, we estimated the total cost to be $2,950," said Daggett.

A1992 report by the N.C. Office of the State Auditor indi­ cated that faculty spent one-half of their time in the classroom, grading papers, and student advis­ ing, while the other half was spent on research and service activities. National surveys have shown that faculty at public re­ search campuses spend an average of six to seven hours per week in classrooms with their students. The faculty at doctoral campuses spend eight to nine hours and com­ prehensive campuses spend 10 to 12 hours in the classroom each week. Comprehensive cam­ puses, like Appalachian, offer work at a master's level, but not much at a doctorate level. Over the past 25 years, many faculty have come to believe that their promotions and tenures are based on research and publi­ cation, said Harvey Durham, Appalachian's provost and vice chancellor of academic affairs. At UNC-Chapel Hill, 56 percent of the course sections usually taken in a student's first two years were taught by teaching assistants, ac­ cording to the proposal. Several options have been recommended by a joint sub-com­ mittee of the House and Senate to solve this problem. One of the options is to increase the faculty teaching load by five percent at master's and doctoral campuses. Another option is to mandate that the Board of Governors control classroom workloads. The sub­ committee also suggested that 50 percent of the budget savings for salary increases be directed to fac­ ulty who teach more than an av­ erage load. "An average load for teachers at ASU is a little above 10 hours and the average may be dif­ ferent at other schools," said Durham. He feels the objective the sub-committee's third option is to get more full-time professors into the classroom. Depending on the rank of the person, the more hours a professor teaches, the more he or she will be paid. Durham used a scenario to describe why that option may not be the best solution. Suppose one professor teaches nine hours, is on several committees and is involved in service activities, while another professor teaches 12 hours and isn't involved in other activi­ ties. According to that option, if the professors are ranked the same, the one teaching 12 hours would get paid more while the other is working just as hard for the university. "I'm not sure they've thought through this," Durham said. The state legislature will also consider recommendations to reduce faculty positions and fac­ ulty salaries. ASU currently has 670.3 full-time-equivalent-teaching posi­ tions, but a reduction of 31.9 fac­ continued^ Weaver whether she thought gen­ der was an issue. Weaver responded, "I want to make it clear that we stand strong in our issues and not in our gender. I think we have proven that we are very strong in our is­ sues and we do not have to stand on the fact that we are both women," she said. Adams, a Paschal and ulty could occur for the next school year. In the past five years, 15 faculty positions have been lost, but been replaced with vacant po­ sitions, said Durham. A vacant position is a class that is not cur­ rently being taught. The faculty is moved around to fill the vacant positions and therefore, no fulltime teachers lose their jobs. Most positions for part-time teachers are from term to term; they're not nec­ essarily given long-term commit­ ments. The average ASU faculty salary and fringes is $56,659.90 per year. A proposal recommends a reduction of $1,808,530. For every 16 full time equivalent stu­ dents there is one faculty position. Each faculty member receives a fixed amount of money for each position ranging from $30,000 to $60,000. The fringe include ben­ efits like health insurance and re­ tirement, so the total is $56,000.00. The state legislature will vote on all the recommendations late this summer.

This will be the sixth council in A.P.P.S. and will be expected to plan and implement three to four events per month. The entertainment is to include DJ's, dances, comedians, and occasional live bands. This council will be funded, similar to the other A.P.P.S. councils, in part through Student Activities Fees and will operate along the lines of A.P.P.S. Club Shows. The New Council will be encouraged to co-sponsor events with existing multi-cultural groups and other A.P.P.S. councils. It will meet weekly and be led by a Chairperson who will serve on the A.P.P.S. Executive Cabinet representing the opinions of the members of the New Council. A membership drive will begin this Spring which will include selecting a Chairperson and recruiting members to serve on the New Council. The first interest meeting will be held on March 23, but if you are still interested in learning more about the council or the Chairperson position, we encourage you to stop by Student Programs or call 262-2855 to inquire for more information. This council is open to all students regardless of race, creed, or gender. Please come out and support this New Council in celebration of diversity. HWY 321, BLOWING ROCK ET Yer, Bnme?

Page 3 Dollar continued from page 1 The overall drop of the dollar has had the greatest impact on those students traveling to countries where the dollar has been hit the hardest. To compen­ sate for the dollar's downward slide, students participating in the Scandinavian trip have been asked to bring along additional spending money. Senior Nathan Templeton is just one of 39 students affected by this decision. "It's unfair be­ cause we'll be missing out on a number of educational activities and experiences." For some students, the call for additional spending money was expected. "We knew that cir­ cumstances could change at any time, you just have to deal with it as it comes," said sophomore Megan Moore. Senior Allison Dob­ bins also sees the increase as a necessary evil. "My parents will give me the money I need to go," said Dobbins, "I just won't be able to buy as much." Students traveling to countries where the dollar has re­ mained stable, however, remain relatively unaffected. Junior John Yaeger, who will travel to Poland, Czechoslovakia and Hungary through the geography depart­ ment, is not concerned in the least. "It really hasn't affected me be­ cause the places we're planning to visit aren't as heavily traveled by tourists," said Yaeger.

OASIS, Inc., a local non­ profit organization, provides ser­ vices to victims of family violence and sexual assault. OASIS ( Opposing Abuse with Service, Information and Shelter) began in 1978. It was started by three local women who determined that there was a need in the area for such an organiza­ tion. They started with one room in a church and now serve Alleghany, Ashe and Watauga Counties. A shelter exists in Wa­ tauga County in a confidential lo­ cation. Jennifer Herman, execu­ tive director of OASIS, says that OASIS cannot solve the crimes of domestic violence and sexual as­ sault, but it can act as a "band-aid." OASIS offers shelter and counsel­ ing for abused women and their children as well as educational problems designed to educate all ages on the effects of domestic vio­ lence. "We want to help every­ one in the community realize that violence is a crime," said Herman. OASIS has helped many Appalachian State students deal with abusive dating relationships, specifically sexual assaults. Ac­ cording to Herman, only one in ten sexual assaults is reported. Herman says that laws re­ garding domestic violence make it tough for women to get out of vio­ lent family situations. "Ninety percent of domes­ tic violence situations are as severe as felonies, but are classified as misdemeanors," said Herman. Economic situations in which the male controls the fi­ nances of the household and inse­ curity brought on by violence and abuse also play roles in the diffi­ culty of getting out of a abusive situation. "The average woman leaves seven times before she gets out," said Herman. Herman commented on the tragedy of the O.J. Simpson case, but recognized the positive aspect that the case has had in making the public aware that do­ mestic violence is a real problem in this country. "It has shown people that it really is a problem. Four women are killed everyday in this coun­ try," said Herman. OASIS relies heavily on volunteer workers to work a 24hour crisis line. Sixty percent of those volunteers are ASU students. Some volunteers have themselves been victims of violence. Six of the volunteers are male. To become a volunteer, one must attend a 20 hour train­ ing program which usually takes place in the fall. The training ses­ sion takes three weeks and in­ volves training on domestic vio­ lence and listening skills. OASIS is funded through United Way, the Boone Town Council, state funding, private do­ nations and fundraising. Those interested in volun­ teering for OASIS or its educa­ tional programs can contact the OASIS office Monday through Fri­ day at 264-1532.

News, by definition, is non-bias facts. I understand that your pa­ per shares its views through the opinion section, which makes it seem okay. It's not! First, the paper chose sides on ACES issue. I (with the same views) was still surprised that a paper could be so bias. Has The Appalachian lost its focus of re­ porting the news and chose to be­ come the students' Big Brother? We do not need a paper, or any­ one, to think for us. It is time for the editor to re­ claim The Appalachian as the stu­ dents' voice, not the voice of a par­ ticular group. I ask that you allow the students to draw their own conclusions. Go back to the roots of media and simply report the facts. Ritch Workman ASU Box 18712 Faculty should pay fee Ice machine fixed To the Editor: I am writing in regard to the question currently being debated in the SGA of whether faculty and their family members should be required to pay for the use of the Quinn Center facility. I agree that our faculty is ex­ tremely under paid. However, I believe that the distribution of monies paid to student fees is highly unbalanced. For example, I would rather see our money go towards the revamping of Rankin Science, Smith-Wright Hall, or the Home Economics facility. By assessing the faculty with an optional fee, we could then gen­ erate funds for the upkeep of the Quinn, thus diverting our money towards the educational facilities. I do believe that we are offered an exceptional education for a minimal price. I also understand that some people feel that charg­ ing our faculty for use of some fa­ cilities would be a "slap in the face." However, I feel that if we INTRAMURAL SPORTS IS LOOKING FOR LEADERSHIP, DISCIPLINE, & COMMITMENT FOR FALL 1995 PROGRAMMERS & ASSISTANTS ARE NEEDED FOR: TEAM SPORTS INDIVIDUAL/DUAL/SPECIAL EVENTS EMPLOYEES PUBLICITY show our educators that we are willing to put our funds towards facilities that would enable them to educate us much easier, I do not see where the questions of unfair­ ness and punishment comes in.

Louise Ward Gold Room Manager Women should attend conference To the Editor: On Saturday, March 25,1995 at 8:30 a.m. in the Broyhill Music Center there will be a Women's Leadership Conference. The con­ ference is being sponsored by the Center for Student Involvement and Leadership. This is one of the best oppor­ tunities for women on ASU's cam­ pus to learn more about leader­ ship, careers, and themselves. I at­ tended this conference last year and was surprised at the amount of information I received. This year's keynote speaker is Julia Sterkovsky, Director of Women's Concerns at Miami Uni­ versity. Ms. Sterkovsky is a dy­ namic speaker, and Appalachian is lucky to have her be a part of this conference. March is Women's History Month and is an important time to reflect on the remarkable women who have influenced our history. This conference is a time to reflect on our history as well as coming together to learn from each other. I would urge every woman on this campus to give themselves the benefit of spending a day empow­ ering themselves. This is an op­ portunity we have been given by our university, so take advantage of it! You can register in the CSIL office on the second floor of Plemmons Student Union.

The conference, sponsored by the Center for Student Involvement and Leadership (CSIL), was put together by a group of women involved with the university, both at the student level and the faculty level. It is designed for all women, whether in a leadership role or not. Manya Brachear, who is on the committee for the conference,said the conference is open to any woman in the university. "The conference is not only to develop leadership already there," said Brachear, "but to promote, encourage leadership roles." and inspire women to take on leadership roles.

This nation- wide philanthropy This week is the National Child Abuse Awareness Week, so what better to do than eat as many pancakes as pos­ sible? Before you think I've lost my mind, let me explain exactly how the two come together. Since 1987, the Epsilon- Epsilon chapter of Kappa Delta sorority at ASU has been serving up all- you- caneat pancakes to raise money for the pre­ vention of child abuse. In their "Sham­ rock Project", three dollar tickets could )e purchased to attend the feeding frenzy held at McDonald's in Boone. "Last year we raised close to $800, and our goal this year is $1200," said Angie Boijes, the Vice- President of Public Relations for Kappa Delta. The sisters of Kappa Delta ended up selling 478 tickets, and are still receiving other donations jenny Moore, Shamrock Chair, serves pancakes for "Shamrock Project", a Jenny OyJohn Lane, has been run by all the Kappa Delta chap­ ters across America for twenty- two years. Of the money raised, 20% will go to the National Committee for the Prevention of Child Abuse (NCPCA). The other 80% will be put directly back into the commu­ nity of Boone through the Wataugua Children's Council. "We want Boone to see that we give to the community and let them see immediate results," said Borjas. The tickets to the feast were sold on campus by the sisters of Kappa Delta, and sales were focused mostly toward fac­ ulty and students, however elementary schools and other organizations in the area were notified. They also had the sup­ port of local radio stations and other news media to get the word out. "All the other sororities have sup­ ported us by buying blocks of tickets," said Borjas, "but the fraternities are who re­ ally pack the place." Among the more distinguished attendees was Chancellor Borkowski and his wife. see Shamrock page 7 P.J.

After lis­ tening to Harvey's new al­ bum, "To Bring You My Love," one has to throw gender out the window and enjoy one of the best al­ bums released by anyone this year. Harvey opens the album with the moody title song that sets the stage for much of the rest of the al­ bum. "To Bring You My Love" is a slow, bluesy tune that relies simply on three guitar chords and convinc­ ing vocals that work subtly until you realize, about two minutes into the track, that you are listening to a truly great song. Harvey uses sev eral unique mystical styles integrated with textures to the songs that allow you to her blues-based song writing. "Working discover something new with each new for the Man" uses a hip-hop beat and listen. Steven Mackay Reporter In 1788, all of England has finally accepted the fact that their precious colo­ nies have left the nest and become what is known as the United States. Only one man seems to have forgotten this undis­ puted fact. He is the king, himself, George III. The same man who lost them in the first place. Sadly, poor George (Nigel* Hawthorne) has not only lost the states,; but he's also lost his marbles. How he; finds them is the premise behind "The Madness of King George," a wonderful British import that has been showered with numerous Oscar nominations. ; As some would say, the King is cuckoo for Cocoa-Puffs. He talks to pigs,; swears like a sailor, hits on any female in the province (except for his wife), ex; cretes in his clothes and runs around Windsor like a chicken without a head.; In the old days this was consid; ered madness and was treated with a; harsh combination of medicine and tor; ture. Nowadays, there is much better; see Madness page Although the music is impres­ sive, the best thing about the record is RJ. Harvey's voice. She can sound long­ ing and sweet as in "C'mon Billy," or gut­ tural in "I Think I'm a Mother." After lis­ tening to "I Think I'm a Mother," you could even compare her vocal perfor- spective song. Every time she sings, whis­ pers or belts, Harvey shows the depth from which her words come. Whether she is inviting you to hear her "Long Snake Moan" or lamenting "I'm begging Jesus, please/Send his love to me," she does it with supreme conviction.

"When God Comes for Breakfast" is directed by Allison Kay Briden, stage managed by Amy TXicker, and costumes are coordi­ nated by Tracey Tebow. This hi­ larious tale takes place in the Katzman household where bedlam breaks loose late one night when Harry, played by Will Stoneham, informs his wife Beatrice, played by Emily Booth, that he has invited God, played by Rebecca Jones, over for breakfast in the morning. Things take a turn for the funnier when the Katzmans oversleep. A series of mishaps and miscommunications soon lead to Harry and Beatrice dragging their extraordi­ nary guest into the middle of their madcap adventure. The second show of the evening is "The Love Course" by A. R. Gumey. "The Love Course" tells the story of two college pro­ fessors, Miss Carroway and Profes­ sor Burgess, played by Melanie R.

The Prince of Wales (Rupert Everett) is the eldest and most power hun­ gry son of the monarch. He ships Dad off to a secluded hideaway and tries to wear the crown. Boy, does he deserve a good spanking. Suffering through the en­ tire ordeal is Charlotte (Helen Mirren), George's loving and loyal wife. They jokingly refer to each other as "Mr. and Mrs. King." The prince keeps her in seclusion away from the king. Make that a spank­ ing with a cast-iron scepter. "The Madness of King George" is a brilliantly-acted movie that is both powerfully dramatic and extremely funny. Much of the movie is a satire on British rule and royal family squabbles. The rest of the movie is an emotional rollercoaster about a man losing his san­ ity, family, job and almost his life. "The Madness of King George" is officially un-rated, but it probably deserves a PG-13 for adult content. It's unsuitable for most children, but perfect for older, sophisticated audiences.

The Apps' record goes to 4-6 with their next match on Wednesday against East Tennessee State. The Buccaneers are the early favorite to win the Southern Con­ ference crown. The netters will then travel to Virginia to take of Radford University on Friday. Heidgerd's racket on the Southern Conference Akram Barghothi Sports Editor Alice Heidgerd is now a senior on the Appalachian women's tennis team. She does not consider herself a leader though. "I am more of a supporter than a leader; I want to make sure everyone is working hard," said Heidgerd. She started playing tennis when she was twelve, "...pretty late compared to most people" she pointed out. "I started playing in the summer at the Raleigh Racquet club when my parents would drop me off. I would go swim for the team and play tennis." Fbr Heidgerd, tennis started to play a larger role when she got to Broughton High School, in Raleigh. "In high school tennis was the big thing. We had a good guys team, they won the state, and we had a good girls team, we were the best in the conference." Playing for a strong high school pro­ gram helped her develop as a player and a team member. "A team like that kind of gets you motivated to play" Heidgerd added. Her high school team has had a ma­ jor influence on her career goals. "I hope that when I graduate I can coach a high school team. Half the reason why I want to be a teacher is my high sqfttol coach, he was so much fun to be '^e are physically ready for tomatches, but we are Wing a lot of mistakes." - Mike Kernodle .

Her desire to be a teacher was part of what led her to Appalachian. The other factor was a little less obvious. "I went to a basketball game and every Manuel Zapata warms up for match with Eagles, (photo by Rhett Butler) see Racket page 10 In a country where blue collar workers struggle their whole life just to make ends meet, it just does not seem right to have a group of grown men arguing over making their fair share, when they either get paid or pay others to play children's games. Professional athletics has gotten com­ pletely out of control. Players are making millions of dollars a year, owners, in the arger markets, are making hundreds of millions, and the fans are paying the price. Tickets run anywhere from $10 -$70 per ticket. Throw in $8 - $10 for a snack and most people cannot afford to take them­ selves, let alone a family of four. Not only are they making millions just off of the games, but apparel has also reached an all-time high and the profits are rolling in. T-shirts are selling for about $15-20 depending on where you get them, and don't forget about those Starter jack­ ets going for about $100 a pop. Not only can you not afford to go to a game, but you can barely afford to even have a fa­ vorite team. In a country where the boundaries of poverty and wealth continue to broaden, it is becoming more and more evident that the rich are getting richer and the poor are getting poorer. It is absurd that the Na­ tional Pastime has become virtually inac­ cessible to the nation, except for television. Anyone who cannot live off of $1 million a year is out of touch with the real world and is living far too excessively. These millionaires should be more considerate of those people who cannot pay their rent or even afford to buy groceries. Government regulatory agencies, such as the Department of Labor, are not al­ lowed to touch professional sports, but maybe if they were, the price of tickets could be drastically reduced, food could actually be affordable, and the players and owners could still make more than their fair share of money. We would not have to worry about a bunch of grown men who are too spoiled to remember what athlet­ ics are all about. It seems that professional athletes have gotten so greedy and so lazy that they go on strike every time they de­ cide that a couple of million dollars a year is not enough money for them to get out of bed and go to the park to play a game. It is past time for these overgrown chil­ dren to become much more socially respon­ sible and to begin acting like the profes­ sionals they are. Maybe if baseball does stick with the replacement players, we could get the real players to work behind the scenes for a week or two, vending drinks, tearing tickets, or flipping burgers in a concession stand. Let them get a glimpse of what real people go through and maybe they will wake up and be thankful for the fairy tale world in which they live. It is a real shame that these so called professional athletes have forgotten what is was like when they were growing up. Many of these athletes grew up in middle or lower class families where their parents had to work hard for what they had. There is nothing wrong with wanting to make a better life for themselves and their fami­ lies, but they need to take into account all of the people who they are hurting because of their greed. They need to think about the all of the people who make their liv­ ings at the ballparks: the vendors, the ush­ ers, the parking attendants, and all of the other jobs which are too numerous to men­ tion. The athletes may be having trouble paying for their million dollar homes, but these people are having trouble putting food on the table. Professional athletics has gotten way out of hand and until someone does something about it, it is only going to get worse. The fans are the only ones who can make the change happen. If the fans boycotted games, quit buying their expensive mer­ chandise, and demanded a change, they would have no other options left but to change. It is time for the fans to take back the games from the corporate big whigs and return the love of the games, for all our sakes. �Page 10 Racket The Appalachian, Thursday 23 March son make the rigors of the fall all worth while "in the spring it gets fun again. It gets fun when you continued from page 9 body was wild and crazy and I said to myself 'I think I like this school.' "I was a junior in high school at that time and I thought yeah, I can play tennis up here." That was only secondary to her at that time. In addition to wanting to coach tennis at the high school level, Heidgerd wants to continue to play competitively after she gradu­ ates. "I still want to play tourna­ ments and stuff when I set out of school." Heidgerd's love of the game is obvious but her love is not enough to keep her from getting a little burned out from time to time. Fall is that time for her. "Every fall is awful, all you do is practice every day, you play individual tourna­ ments, there is not much of a team factor. After that I did not pick up a racquet for about a month and a half." For Heidgerd the Spring sea­ Heidgerd get a little compassion and start playing matches and you play as a team." Team competition is very impor­ tant for Heidgerd. Despite her strong individual performances this season she is most proud of the play of her doubles play. She teams up with Amy Parille, her roommate, and the only other senior on the team. When describing Parille, Heidgerd said "She is the best partner I have ever played with, we really work well to­ gether." Heidgerd feels that this tandem has a lot of promise when it come time for conference hon­ ors to be given out. "I want to get at least to the finals in doubles. I think my partner and I are good enough to do that." "Amy and I really decided that we were going to make this our best year. She's a good player, really good." As far as her singles action goes, Heidgerd said "Its to early to tell. I want people to look at me and think they are going to have to be out there all day before they bet me and think 'oh gosh I have to play Alice'." 199s Lady Linksters get into swipq 1 — • . i i . r» • i i CL.L An Appalachian finished fifth in the six team field.

The excitement of the sweet 16, though, is that no one knows what will happen, and that is a refresh­ ing change from the absence of a World Series and a predictable Super Bowl that was played more for the gamblers than the fans. Most of the first and second seeds have been number one in the country at some time this year, and they aren't ready to throw in the proverbial towel yet. Arkansas' regular season may not have been too impressive, but they were just waiting for the tour­ nament.

First, they want to build state leg­ islative support for library funding through monthly visits to Raleigh. Send­ ing one van costs $150. This seems un­ necessary since legislators won't be meet­ ing during the next school year, due to a short session. Requesting $3 million for the li­ brary collection from the Centennial Cam­ paign is a good idea, and cites a more con-' crete target to shoot for than Paschal and Finch did in their platform. Weaver and Martin want to im­ prove library education by creating a sys­ tem which will help students find research materials faster. The library currently has librarians standing behind desks ready to answer any questions students may have on finding materials, and World Civiliza- tion classes do supplemental orientatior tours. Appalachian 2000 is their plan tc increase student input into the university': future. They would have faculty mem bers pass out surveys during class. There': no way for SGA to force faculty member: to take up class time to serve SGA.

Weaver said athletics plays a very integral role in education, but it should not be the top priority. Burleson said he appreci­ ates the athletic role of providing opportunity to a diverse group of students and the excitement it gen­ erates, but if it poses a threat to a quality education, it raises a seri­ ous concern. In a question regarding the working relationship already established with administrators, Weaver said she has met several members of the UNC Board of Governors but has not met mem­ bers of the Board of Trustees. Burleson said he has not yet met any of the Board of Trustees or the Board of Governors. Paschal said he has met and worked with the Board of Trustees and Board of Governors.

Make AIDS testing more jjdential: Dr. William Derrick of ASU Health Services said this plat­ form goal might run into conflict with new state legislation requir­ ing names of patients testing for the HIV virus. He said too many patients test positive anonymously, but never return for the results' Therefore, in June, tests will no longer be anonymous. Derrick said the only way to improve the confidentiality is to make patients fill out the appropriate paperwork in a separate room from all other patients in the infirmary.

Fostering diversity in all aspects: This may be a little broad, but certainly can be accomplished (See Weaver/Martin story.)

Expand all-u-can eat: Ron Dubberly, director of food services, said he does not have any plans to expand it, but he is not against it. Contractual food services: Dubberly said he thinks it is better that Appalachian self-operates, "because we can react to students better." Increase campus accessi­ bility for the physically challenged: State law requires that the cam­ pus be accessible to the handi­ capped. ASU certainly could look into new and innovative technolo­ gies that help these people. Burleson and Bunting's platform addresses a lot of issues, but rarely offers any concrete method of dealing with these is­ sues. Boone loop. This is a good idea that would require a lot of effort and can be accomplished. How­ ever Appalachian cannot help with the funding. Asking AppalCart to expand service to student housing areas not currendy served is fea­ sible. AppalCart receives money from the university and should work with them. Their stand on parking is weak.

Harry Williams, director of minority recruitmert, agreed with the Weaver and Martin plat­ form to increase efforts to recruit minorities. He said that the more people that work on it and talk about it, the better. Recruitment of diverse faculty is the job of the Equal Op­ portunities Program. University Director of EO Richard Howe said they already have a complex sys­ tem set up to ensure diverse hir­ ing practices. Provisions have also been suggested in the proposal from the Chancellor's Forum for Diversity to increase diverse fac­ ulty. Feedback on these results will be presented at Friday's Board of Trustees meeting. Continuing to oppose tu­ ition increases is important. Stu­ dents won't be happy with an SGA president who supports them. Weaver and Martin in­ clude support for Greek-funded Greek housing in an attempt to scrape up some, if any, Greek votes. In their platform, they support expanding recycling pro­ grams in residence halls and implementing recycling programs during freshman orientation. A general concensus among candi­ dates is that these are good ideas; each of them has their own ver­ sion. The campus-wide Spring Graduation Celebration is an ex­ cellent idea, especially until the Appalachian Convocation Center can house one spring commence­ ment to honor all seniors at once. continued from page 1 vacant position- and has been for two years, according to Dr. Will­ iam Derrick, director of health ser­ vices. It seems Paschal and Finch should consider supporting the infirmary speeding up the process. Paschal and Finch suggest having data ports installed in all residence hall rooms. This is an­ other noble attempt to stake claim to something that is already in progress. Appalachian Heights has data ports and Newland Hall soon will. As an SGA off-campus senator, Finch has been working on extending library hours since last semester. He and SGA Aca­ demic Affairs Chair Alex Walters have been talking to university li­ brarian, Dr. Mary Reichel, about the possibility. As a result the li­ brary is going to try staying open until 1 a.m. Sunday through Thurs­ day to see if there is a need to stay open late. Supporting the hiring of a nutritionist for students is reason­ able since faculty and staff already have this luxury. They also want to create nutrition guides for all university food services. Ron Dubberly, di­ rector of food services, said that a computer system which will be able to store nutrition information will be installed this summer, but the information will not be avail­ able for another year and a half. Establishing a 24-hour computer room in the student union is another idea of Paschal and Finch. Unfortunately, the Stu­ dent Union Advisory Board has looked into this and has found that it would be difficult to find quali­ fied staff to operate a computer room around the clock. Creating a multicultural affairs cabinet position and com­ bining the chief-of-staff and state affairs positions is one of the best ideas of all the candidates. They would eliminate a position which hardly does anything and create one that has been in need for quite some time. The ideas of implement­ ing a recycling education program into orientation and freshmen seminar and the two-for-one tree deal are good, but they are most likely an attempt to salvage any environmentalist's votes. Including the library in the university's Centennial Cam­ paign is a valid idea. So valid, that another ticket also has it on their platform. Students should be glad to know that Paschal and Finch will oppose tuition increases. What students don't need is an SGA president that supports it. Paschal and Finch's plat­ form is feasible and well-researched. The only problem is that a number of their ideas are already in progress.

Qui Paschal / Finch: ASU's ticket to ride Editor's note: The following is The Appalachian Editorial Board's endorsement for SGA president and vice president. We based our decision on our news analysis (see page 1), the candidates' debate, past interviews and platform goals. The endorsement of the Paschal / Finch ticket is the result of a majority vote by the editorial board. For those of you who somehow missed the flyers, banners and stickers, there is an election taking place on campus. Wednesday and Thursday, students will se­ lect the next Student Government Asso­ ciation president and vice president. The three tickets are Paul Burleson and Billy Bunting, Ray Paschal and Todd Finch and Darby Weaver and Robyn Martin. The Appalachian Editorial Board en­ dorses Paschal and Finch. While there are drawbacks to this ticket, we feel that this pair will best serve Appalachian's students because of their combination of experience, new ideas and well-researched platform goals. Write The Appalachian. Paschal would bring the necessary experience needed to be an effective SGA president. Because SGA is simply a rec­ ommending body, much of SGA's effective­ ness comes from the ability of the presi­ dent to work with the university's admin­ istration. Paschal has been SGA director of state affairs for two years. In that posi­ tion, he has dealt with both campus administrators and the university's two governing bodies, the Appalachian Board of Trustees and the UNC- sys­ tem Board of Governors. Several of the Paschal and Finch platform goals influ­ enced the editorial board's en­ dorsement. • Establish an advising contract system- This is the best platform idea on any of the platforms. The contract would require advisors to guarantee a student's graduation if the student followed the advisor's plan. The contract would not prevent mistakes from being made, but it would force advisors to be more careful when making recom­ mendations and would hold them ac­ countable for mistakes which can cause a student to spend an extra semester in school. • Establish a 24-hour study / com­ puter room in the student union- Students have waited too long for the student union's completion for this not to be in­ cluded once it finally opens. The closing of the 24-hour study room in Whitener tage. « Create a position for Multi-Cultural Affairs on the SGA cabinet- This addresses the campuses growing concern for diver­ sity. Paschal and Finch have also said that they would pay for the new position by cutting out the chief of staff position. This is indicative of many of the Paschal / Finch goals in that the candidates have researched not only a goal's feasibility, but also its cost. Also, this goal gets rid of a cabinet position that is rarely used. • Establish a student committee to carefully review all student fees- This goal hits on one of students' main con­ cerns- their money.

Frisbees soar in austere arcs while campaigi bed-sheet banners snap crisply in the breeze. Picnii trash spills artfully from overflowing garbage cani to mingle with orphaned campaign buttons and fli­ ers. All of which leaves thoughtful students ponder­ ing the deepest, most piercing question of this yearl SGA presidential election: which one of these gujl is which, anyway? As it turns out, there are three tickets. The moi i alphabetical of the three would have to be the fS: ther/son team, Paul Burleson and Billy Bunting, i These two gendemen are running on a sort of cam pus-populist platform; it is their goal to place stu­ dent government back in the hands of the students While they stop short of mud-slinging, they suggtij that student government is currendy in the hands o special interests, and, if elected, they plan to chang this. Along with sensible ideas such as streamlininj Food Services and expanding Mountaineer Escort, they are apparently in favor of publishing all S® minutes in die Appalachian. (Could this be a sinis­ ter plot to silence the student newspaper by puttinj anyone who tries to read it to sleep?) They ® suggest creating a new SGA cabinet official whose only purpose is to solve individual student problem* including everything from problems with professo to problems with Food Services. This means, I th that if they are elected and your Gold Room r° beef is slightly cooler than lukewarm, you can co^ plain to SGA, and a high-ranking cabinet official microwave it for you. j.

Besides being thoroughly skilled, Ray also has great motivation which adds a unique flavor to any organization or group. Another "unique flavor" from your institution has been added to the North Carolina Association of Student Governments as well. That individual is Todd Finch. He has proven to be a very depend­ able and reliable person. Todd demonstrates great concern for the welfare of the students and the future of the UNC university sys­ tem. As a new member, he encour­ ages consistent networking and communication between the uni­ versities. Todd has clearly ex­ pressed that this is the only way to keep our colleagues abreast of current issues. He has the cha­ risma and personality that simu­ lates positive feelings and attitudes among people. Ray Paschal and Todd Finch are two exemplary men. Individu­ ally, they have strengths which I feel will have a tremendous impact on the Student Government Asso­ ciation and the administration of Appalachian. When these gentle­ men combine their talents the pro­ ductivity is unreal, but REAL! Iam more than confident in saying that an investment in Paschal and Finch is an investment in advancement.

Also, Burleson and Bunting seek to create a new SGA position, a student concerns liaison, with­ out citing how they would fund the position. Anyway, if elected, that should be their job. Overall, Paschal and Finch are more experienced, more thorough and more qualified. For these rea­ sons, Paschal and Finch are the best candidates for the job. They know what their job will be, how to do it and how to do it well. continued from page 4 greatest handicap that they have to overcome is Boone Town Coun­ cilman Hunter Schofield's endorse­ ment. As with most student-govern­ ment campaigns, these six indi­ viduals all seem to be decent, skilled, and competent leaders. All are doing a good job of saying all of the right words, such as "li­ brary," "parking," and "diversity." (Ironically, the two women, Weaver and Martin, are the only ticket that failed to mention the Mountaineer Escort program in their flier.) If any of these candi­ dates are elected, it is entirely pos­ sible that they may serve ASU rea­ sonably well.

Weaver and Martin are run­ ning a pretty sharp campaign, with a snappy plan called "Appalachian 2000: Planning for Growth," in which the two advocate interrogat­ ing us all to determine student opinions concerning everything from class size to curriculum.

World healing through music and dance Special to the Appalachian Nine Tibetan monks of the Drepung Loseling Monastery will perform ancient Tibetan music and dance at 8 p.m. on Fri­ day, March 24, in Farthing Auditorium. The performance, entitled "Sacred Music, Sacred Dance for World Healing," is pre­ sented by the Office of Cultural Affairs, as part of the Performing Arts Series. The sacred performing arts have, in ancient societies, been considered one of the most powerful vehicles for inspiring healing, peace and har­ mony. Tibet, which preserved one of humanity's most ancient civiliza­ tions, was especially strong in this re­ spect. Drawing from their traditional temple music and masked dances, the Tibetan monks will perform an arrangement of pieces believed to generate energies con­ ducive to world harmony.

However, their record, I league's third-best, is a good lip-zipper. THE OVERDOSE In the first golf match of the spring schedule, Appalachian finished 13th of 18 teams. They traveled to The Emerald in New Bern, N.C. to play in .the .sixth an­ nual ECU Emerald Intercollegiate Golf Tournament. They looked to this trip to improve on that finish. Instead, the team's performance was a small step in the other direction - Appalachian finished 17 of 19 teams. Virginia Commonwealth broke a 2year old scoring record set by the Univer­ sity of Virginia and won the tournament, firing an 876. In breaking the record, VCU completed their three-day domination of Young the field, never trailing in the event Sam Adams, ASU men's golf coach, said the Emerald "is a difficult course, the round on Saturday was played in diffi cult conditions." Adams was quick to point out this was not an excuse for his team's poor performance. "The conditions on Friday were good, and Sunday it was just a little breezy," he said. Junior Jason Young played a strong three rounds for Appalachian. Young shot 75-78-74 to lead the Mountaineers. 'Ja­ son played good golf," said Adams. Freshman David Goodman also con­ tributed a strong performance, shooting rounds of 77-81-76. Junior Jeff Waltzer had the Mountaineers' third best score. He finished his tournament with rounds of 76-78-84. The bottom dropped out for the Apps when Junior Drew Taylor shot 81-83-85 and sophomore Brooks Himer shot 81-8583. The tandem of Taylor and Turner rounded out Appalachian's scoring. "The team is still performing well be­ low where they should be. I don't know exactly why, maybe it's the coach's fault," said Adams. Appalachian's next tournament is March 23-26 at Furman. "Furman is not as difficult a course, shot hitting and driving will not be as much a premium," said Adams. "I think our team score should be in the 305-310 range, whether or not that will move us up in the team standings is a question, there will be a better field at Furman."

Showing regional action is fine, but too often a close game in its final minute or two is tossed to the side in favor of a contest with ten minutes remaining. This exact scenario was played out on Sunday, when watchers got to see the deadlocked Memphis-Purdue gameon an inset screen.

The Mountaineers did get off to a strong start as Appalachian and UNCGreensboro split the first two matches, ASU's Jenny Sopeh dropped he match 61,6-3 to Natalie Teague, and Alice Heilgerd continued her stellar early season perfor­ mance defeating Susan Scott by the same score.

Men's tennis win a close one at UNC-G Stephen Hensley Assistant Sports Editor The Men's tennis team im­ proved their season record to 4-6 Thursday aftemoo n after winning 4-3 at UNC-Greensboro. The Apps took four of six individual matches and one of three doubles matches on the way to slaying the Spartans. After getting the point for win­ ning two of three doubles matches, UNC-G took a 1-0 advantage in the singles events. Zach Sharpe, the Mountaineers fifth seed drew the contest even at one apiece with a 7-6 (7-5), 6-2 victory over Andrew Short. Coach Mike Kernodle watched with baited breath as his other five players were all down a set in their Jazz continued from page 8 things: buzzer-beaters, upsets, and Dick Vitale - although the charm of the entire three weekends is that the close of each season has a dif­ ferent flavor, something to make even the most jaded fan crack a smile. College ball's most elite tournament is definitely not pre­ dictable. Knowing this, why do so many suckers gamble in March? Not only is it guaranteed to contribute to heart trouble and alcohol abuse. Not only does it cause episodes of violence on things both living and inanimate. But plenty of people see gambling as one of life's worst sins, right up there with adultery, steal­ ing, and listening to Luke Campbell. Ifs really, honestly des picable ... but does anyone, by chance, remember the odds on Kentucky? individual matches. "I thought our attitude was a little slack going in," Kernodle commented on his team's play. "They were a little overconfident." Facing a one set deficit, three of the five remaining Mountain­ eers were able to battle back to help the Apps capture the 4-3 win. Pedro Lopes at the number two seed clawed back from being down 4-6 to take a 4-6,6-2,6-3 win over James Glen. At the third seed, Itay Shimony fought off Oliver Brentzle 2-6, 6-1, 6-4. Greg May got a vic­ tory at the number five position by getting by Tyler Roberts 4-6, 6-3, 6-3. Manuel Zapata dropped his match against the Spartan's num­ ber one seed Adam Messick. 4-6, 6-7 (4-7). J.C. Moeller fell in straight sets in his sixth seed match against Dan Cook 1-6, 6-7 (4-7). "If we play that way in other matches, we're in a lot of trouble," Kernodle remarked on the come from behind victory. With a pair of conference matches slated for this week, the Mountaineers can ill afford to find themselves in another uphill struggle. The Apps will take on the Eagles of Georgia Southern Tilesday March 21 then turn around to face East Tennessee State the fol­ lowing afternoon. Both matches are home contests and are slated to start at 2:30. The Apps will then take to the road Saturday March 25 to take on Radford. Slide With the loss to UNC-Greens­ boro the teams overall mark drooped to 2-5. On Saturday the team hosted its first home match of the season with Davidson traveling up the mountain to face the struggling ASU squad. The Wildcats trounced Appalachian 6-1, with Heidgerd winning a set war, 3-6,6-4,7-5 against Davidson's Nicole Wilcox. The next match was Sunday when ASU hosted the University of North Carolina at Charlotte. UNC-Charlotte won a close fought match, 3-4. Heidgerd defeated UNCCharlotte's Cheryl Lee 6-2. Sopel continued from page 8 contributed to the Appalachian cause by defeating Sarah Bandomer 6-1,6-0. Parille contin­ ued Appalachian's Dominica of the early going dropping Mandy Saharia 6-2,6-3. Unfortunately the Mountain­ eers did not win another point in the match. Although Heidgerd and Parille won their double match, 8-2, it was not to win the critical doubles point. With the loss the Women's tennis team's record dropped to 27. Today at 2:30 p.m. they will attempt to improve on that mark q they face Georgia Southern.

Adams Monday. SGA senators voiced concerns over the proposed 1995-96 stu­ dent fee increases, at their Feb. 28 meet­ ing. The proposal includes a $50 fee increase for all students, and an additional $120 room and board increase for on-campus students. Dr. Greg Blinding, vice chancel­ lor for student affairs, and Jane Helm, vice chan­ cellor for busi­ ness affairs, were on hand to review the in­ creases and en­ tertain questions from senators. Several Helm senators ex­ pressed concern over the increase in the general athletic fee. Student fees currently contribute to 40 percent of the total oper­ ating budget of the athletic program which exceeds $3.8 million. Yet according to Paul Burleson & Helm, the athletic department currently Billy Bunting operates at a $72,000 deficit. Helm said years ago coaches were Platform goals focus on hired as faculty members. Since then, making SGA more "user/ coaches have shifted to full-time positions campus friendly" and take in the athletic department. Helm said the a proactive role in the increase in athletic fees is to shift money university's direction. back to academics. Bunting Burleson Adams met with administrators last week to discuss the senators' concerns. He said administrators were willing to lower the fees 33 percent ($5). Adams also suggested not in­ creasing the low-option meal plan so resi­ dents of residence hall rooms with builtin kitchens would not have to foot an un­ necessary bill. Blimling said the $15 in­ crease in the Physical, Education, Recre­ ation, and Athletic Facilities will become a permanent increase.

Elections —*95 — Dates to Remember P mM mm Regulations break new ground in watershed protection Stacey Evans Reporter Appalachian State University will not be affected by changes in the new watershed laws according to Boone senior planner Wayne Herron. The North Carolina Division of Environmental Management developed regulations to change the current wa­ tershed laws. According to county plan­ ner Brent Graybeal, there have been no regulations to modify the law before. As a result of the new ordi­ nances, classifications for watersheds have been established. Areas are now classified as WS1-very strict through WS-5-less strict (WS means watershed). "Classification is determined by the amount of land already developed," said Graybeal. A watershed is the way water drains or runs out of a lake or stream into the land around it. "ASLTs main campus is not in the watershed or designated (critical) area" Herron said. This means the main water sup­ ply of campus doesn't lie in a critical area but a protected area. "A critical area is the area within a half mile of the watershed be­ cause if s closer to the source (water sup­ ply)" Graybeal said. ASU is in a protected area be­ cause it's located a half mile boundary of the watershed. ASU's main watershed is the Howard's Creek and Norris branches, not the Howard's Knob branch. The Howard's Knob branch lies within a dif­ ferent area. Both the Howard's Creek and Norris branches are classified as WS-2 because a large amount of developed land already exists. The classification of ASU's wa­ tersheds is based on existing develop­ ment. ASU's classification is because of the already large amount of land de­ veloped making regulations tighter. Howard's Knob also will not be affected by the changes unless Monte Greene changes the lot size. "If Monte Greene uses the lots for a single dwelling unit (one house or apartment building, etc.), then he is exempt from the ordinances," Graybeal said. However, the five lots that re­ main inside a critical area will have to comply with regulations if Greene de­ cides to divide the lots and change its size Graybeal added. The goal of the new ordinance is to regulate development possibly by zoning and control storm water drain­ age to prevent the pollutants from reaching and contaminating water sup­ plies, according to a news release issued by Watauga Planning and Inspection Commission. Into The Streets gains community support cational and environmental advocacy agencies. In getting "Into the Streets" to­ gether, he said he has contacted over 30 of these agencies and received 17 re­ sponses to total 33 projects. "Into the Streets is a starting point for coordinating group projects on a yearround basis," Johnson said "All those who participate will realize how they are able to use the ACT office to volunteer in the community in the future." Also, Johnson said, Boone Town Councilman Saul Chase asked the coun­ cil to move the date for the Boone Town Appalachian is published with support from Appalachian's Center for Student Involvement and Leadership.

One complaint students often voice is that health services should provide more free services. The health service fund is a step in that direction. So far, three student service organi­ zations have contacted health services about the fund. Dr. William Derrick, di­ rector of health services, will come talk to any group interested in contributing to the fund. Students and student groups should donate to this fund. It is a way to help bring down the costs of health care for students who cannot afford to pay for medical procedures. It also begins to ad­ dress some of the concerns students have about health services. The Health Services fund is one of those rare ideas that just makes sense any way you look at it. There is no negative argument to be heard. If a student wishes to contribute to the fund, he or she can. Otherwise, there is no pressure to do so. If you or your organization would like more information about this fund or how to donate to it, please contact Dr. William Derrick of Health Services at 262-3100.

Wl11 be J Hiding AIDS: Right or wrong Vanessa Urruela Columnist Six years ago Greg Louganis had a tough choice tc make. The swimmer ended up deciding not to tell the 1988 Olympics Committee that he was infected with the AIDS virus, fearing that he might be booted out. Louganis reasoned that it ws okay not to tell because his infection would probably not put anyone else in danger. Unfortunately, his reasoning proved wrong. In a preliminary round ———— dive, Louganis hit his head on the diving board while coming out of a tuck. His head was split open and his infected blood spilled into the pool. Louganis' hope that the dis­ ease wouldn't be a factor in his com­ peting was dashed. As a doc__ tor sewed up his wound, Louganis faced the choice again: to tell or not to tell. The second time is where Louganis went wrong. The doctor who stitched him up wasn't made aware of his exposure to the illness until last month. In midout bicycles; where do roller blades, skateboards, Mike Cleaves February Louganis not only revealed that he had been pogo sticks, and unicycles fit into all of this? infected at the time of the accident, but also that he is3 Assistant Editorials Editor There are other reasons to look coldly on this homosexual. law.

It was uioJSame eatery students have uw and love. s sf^nt a Assistant Vice Chancellor for Auxil­ iary Operations Lynda Stanbery, who used to be Assistant Director of Food Services, is well-versed in the history of the Sweet Shop. "The Student Union was built in 1967," said Stanbery. 'That space was just a vending room then. In the mid 1970s, it became a combination vending room and offered limited counter service. It was simply called the Ice Cream Parlor, to re­ flect the expanded service." "They only served hand-dipped ice cream at that time," said Ron Dubberly, Director of Food Services, who came to Appalachian in 1979. "In 1980 or '81 it was changed to the Sweet Shop, and the bakery and candies were added." Depending on the construction, the new Cascades Cafe will be opened in the new part of the Student Union in about a month. "It's going to take a while to open it," said Dubberly, "because the Cascades is to the point where they're doing the elec­ tricity, wiring, lighting^nd painting. Then they have to move in all the equipment." According to Larry Trivette, Director of the Student Union, the entire down­ stairs portion of the Student Union, in­ cluding the Pub, will be closed off alto­ gether. "We're shooting for an April 20 re­ opening date," said Trivette. "Our plans are to do some moving over Spring Break, and then begin demolition and Phase III construction." Remodeling will begin, which, accord­ ing to Dubberly, is scheduled to take 75 construction days. Until the downstairs portion of the old building is finished, the offices currently housed there will be operating out of the administrative offices of the new build­ ing. "The space where the Sweet Shop is now will become meeting space," said Dubberly. Regardless of the timeline, students will not go hungry. A short walk will put students within reach of food to nourish their hungry little bodies. However, as Joyce said, "It's more the place than what it has to eat." Farewell, Sweet Shop. You will be missed. tomers well enough that when they came in, she would have their drink ready for them and their food on the grill. "The service is always good and Marilyn always has a smile," said Thomas. What about the food? Boone Drug serves everything from burgers and fries to lasagna and all is delicious. They also have wonderful pies for dessert. Not only is the food as good or better than on campus, it is also less expensive. For lunch, a sandwich, fries and a drink, will cost you around six dollars including a tip. Many students may take advantage of Boone Drug, but more have yet to try it. Give yourself a change of pace and walk over to King Street for lunch. Their loca­ tion is ideal, and the service is quick enough to drop in between classes. You may agree with Thomas, who said, "Boone Drug has made my meal card obsolete." The job hunt continues Tiffany Lohman Assistant News Editor Spring is the time of year when jun­ iors and seniors rush around trying to find that dream internship or job. While some just scan the classifieds and hope to get lucky, some students will work to find work. Lonnie Jones, the manager of the Employment Security Commission, said students can stop in and use the comput­ ers at the office on Winklers Creek Road to locate job opportunities. The computer system can look up lo­ cal jobs, jobs in this state, national jobs, and federal jobs. The system is self-ex­ planatory and easy to use. All the user has to know how to do is read. The jobs are also accessible from the Internet. "After a student finds a listing they're interested in, they talk to one of our in­ terviewers and we tell them how to go from there," said Jones. Another resource for students on campus is the Career Development Cen­ ter. This office offers workshops on re­ sume writing, job search strategies, the Internet and other topics. The workshops are scheduled at different times each week Once you have located your dream job, the next step is to get through the interview and schedules can be picked up in the of­ fice in I.G. Greer. The Career Development Center also helps students get interviews through reg­ istering their resume on a job register. After the student attends an orientation workshop, they register their resumes on the computer. This register is viewed by prospective interviewers. The interviews are then set up through the Career Devel­ opment Center. Once you have located your dream job, the next step is to get through the interview. A few things to remember when interviewing are to keep good eye contact, speak clearly and slowly, answer questions promptly without stuttering or using "um." Dress appropriately and be polite. Also, it is good to make up a few prac­ tice questions and answer them. Try to narrow down what you think your inter­ viewer will want to know about you. Be prepared to answer just about anything about your strengths and weaknesses, abilities and what you could offer to the position. Never, when an interviewer asks you if you have any questions, say "no." Do research about the company you will be interviewing with, and have some ques- see Job hunt page 7 Scholarship honors former graduate Special to the Appalachian A reception hosted by Gov. and Mrs. Jim Hunt at the Governor's Mansion in Ra­ leigh highlighted efforts to raise $500,000 for the Sara W. Hodgkins Memorial Schol­ arship at Appalachian State University. Hodgkins, a 1952 Appalachian gradu­ ate, left her mark on the state as a music teacher, secretary of cultural resources, a member of the Appalachian State Univer­ sity Foundation board from 1972-76 and the university's board of trustees from 1989 unitl her death in 1992. More than $125,000 has been pledged to the fund which when fully endowed will support scholarships in Appalachian's School of Music. Hunt said Hodgkins never forgot her beginnings as a public school teacher. "She was a wonderful public servant," he said. 'This scholarship expresses what Sara Hodgkins was all about- believing in young people and their potentials." Appalachian's School of Music offers the bachelor of science, bachelor of mu­ sic and master of music degrees. It also offers a bachelor of music in music edu­ cation in cooperation with the Reich Col­ lege of Education. The music school has approximately 30 full-time faculty and 300 students majoring in its programs. The school is accredited by the National Association of Schools of Music, an accreditation the music program has had since 1953.

ETSU shot an amazing 69 percent in the first half while the Lady Apps struggled to get things going offen­ sively. Things just continued to get worse for the Lady Mountaineers as Blocker contin­ ued her clinic on both ends of the floor. A pair of Blocker free throws at the six minute mark gave ETSU their biggest lead of the game at 76-52. Blocker scored a tournament record 39 points in the game. Through it all, the Lady Apps fought hard. Beth Kilby, in her final game in an Appalachian uniform, turned it on in the second half and scored eight of her 12 points after intermission. Hinton finished the game with 13 points and four re­ bounds and Merideth Thompson chipped in eight points and five boards. "You have to give credit to East Ten­ nessee," Robinson said after the contest. "They had a great game plan and took us right out of ours." The loss took nothing away from the great season the Lady Mountaineers had. Losing Kilby will be a great loss to the team on and off the court, but if this season is any indication, the Lady Mountaineers have a lot to look forward to in 1996. ^ Ppalachian State University's wresJ team charged through the Southern Lerence Tournament and won three in| jial titles and a share of the team title.

With the wrestling, men's basketball, and women's basketball tournaments all consolidated into one fun-filled weekend in Asheville, there were many memorable events that took place. Apke a laugh a minute ASU men's basketball coach Tom Apke definitely had the most entertaining press conferences. When asked what the key to victory over Furman in the play-in game was, Apke said, "We scored more baskets than they did." When asked about his reinsertion of Chad McClendon (who had four fouls) into the game with nine or ten minutes to go, Apke said "it was a bril­ liant coaching move," Fortunately, McClendon did not foul out. Through these comments and others, it was easy to see that ASU came into tour­ nament play with a laid-back attitude that helped them to a surprise finish in the semi­ finals where they fell to Western Carolina 74-64. As far as men's honors go, McClendon was named to the All-Tournament first team, with teammate Kareem Livingston named to the second team. Blocker runs rampant The best performance of the tourna­ ment would probably go to Deshawne Blocker. Blocker, the Women's Basketball Player of the Year, scored 39 points against the Lady Mountaineers in the women's semi-finals. Blocker scored 51 points in two games, which led her to the tournament's Most Valuable Player award. Joining Blocker on the All-Tourna­ ment first team was ASLTs Andreia Hinton. Melissa Davis was named to the second team for the ASU. Wrestling barn burner Andreis Hinton drives past an ETSU defender as the Mountaineers lose to ETSU.

Zullo will get an­ other chance next season, as he is only a junior, he should definitely be a confer­ ence leader. Brad Ginn, wrestling at 150 lbs for the Mountaineers also dropped a very tight match to a Keydet grappler, Jeremy Ingram 4-3. Ginn will also be back next year and the sophomore should be very hard to handle for the next two seasons. App senior Shomari Rozier returned to the conference finals once again, but this time he did not come away with the win. Rozier could not seem to find the form that took him to the NCAA Tournament last season. He sat out several matches this season with an injury. App's lone repeat champion is Seth Myerson. Myerson defeated Mocassin wrestler Chad Dennis 12-7 in the 177 lb class. Myerson, a junior, will return to the NCAA Tournament for the second time. Hopefully his past experience will be a plus for the Apps. Sights and sounds from the SC torney The most exciting competition of the weekend turned out being the wres­ tling action. In a close tournament, ASU found themselves behind VMI by a few points. In the final match, heavyweight Duke Howell found himself pitted against Hercules Ward of VMI. (No, this was not the WWF as the names might suggest.) In sudden death overtime, Howell fashioned a dramatic escape from Ward Ward was hanging on to Howell's foot for dear life, but Howell shook free to give ASU the win, and more importantly, a 99.5 tie with VMI for the conference crown. Seth Myerson, Mike Orris, and Howell all won their respective weight classes for Mountaineers. Reporter stunned Not to be melodramatic, but yes, this reporter was stunned. As I pillaged through media guides for every Southern Conference team in the press room at the Asheville Civic Center, I came across some­ thing strange. On the cover of the VMI press guide was a giant kangaroo. I also noticed the name "Runnin' Roos" tattooed across the top. Upon further investigation, it is now known that the tide of Runnin' Roos is only for the VMI basketball team. As if Keydets isn't bad enough. �Page 8 The Appalachian, Tuesday 14 Mar , ASU's Tennis team has a good break wining 6-1. One p.m. the next afternoon in Sports Editor Anderson, S.C.

Last season marked the first time in 11 years the LA Lakers had a los­ ing season and did not make the playoffs. This, however is a new year and with a few changes, Showtime is back. The transition from the 1980's to the 1990's was very hard on the Lakers. The team of the 80's was getting old and instead of bring­ ing in some young guns to aid in the transition, they chose to sign veteran free-agents. Then it all fell apart. As some of the younger, more talented teams began to ma­ ture, the Lakers started slipping and found the going much, much tougher. Over what seemed like a few short seasons, Kareem Abdul Jabbar, Michael Thompson, Magic Johnson, and James Worthy all retired. Byron Scott, AC Green, and Sam Perkins left LA for greener pastures. Fans began go­ ing to Clipper's games. Showtime was dead. Three years ago, the Lakers be­ gan working the draft, and since then have accumulated some fine continued from page 8 2-3 in doubles.

ASU Baseball 1-1-1 over break Kevin Robinson Reporter The Appalachian State baseball team won, lost, and tied in a 3game series against East Tennes­ see State in Boone at Red Lackey Field this weekend. The Mountaineers won 12-7 on Saturday, sparked by a 7-run third inning blitz. They were led by the pitching of Jason Crews and the batting of Shane Owenby and Scott Musgrave. Crews pitched a complete game, giving up six earned runs but striking out seven batters and walking only two. Owenby went 2 for 4 with four RBIs. Musgrave was 3 for 3 with three runs and one RBI. The East Tennessee State pitch­ ing improved for the first game of Sunday's doubleheader, however, and the Mountaineers lost 8-4. Buccaneer pitcher Jay Hensley gave up one run in the first six in­ nings, and Daniel Ball stopped a three-run seventh-inning ASU rally. Shane Owenby led the Mountaineers again, going 3 for 3 with three RBIs. The two teams fought to a 5-5 13-inning tie in the last game. The Mountaineers scored four runs in the fourth inning, but left 17 men on base. Garth Armstrong gave up just two earned runs in eight in­ nings. Matt Russell closed out the game with four scoreless innings and two strikeouts. Scott McDaniel went 2 for 4 with one run and one RBI. Appalachian is 3-11-1 this year. Grapplers In the final Championship Match, ASU trailed VMI and des­ perately needed a win. App heavyweight Duke Howell proved to be up to the challenge by de­ feating UTC grappler Hercules Ward 2-1. Howell gained revenge, having lost their regular season match-up. Howell will be making his first trip to the NCAA's. Appalachian completed its continued from page 7 come from behind march to tie VMI with 99.5 points. The tie was the first in the tournament's 41 year history. The Mountaineers will be com­ peting this week in the NCAA Tour­ nament. The grapplers could do quite well. A good showing at the nationals could do wonders for App's recruiting. Good luck.

Our platform clearly represents that our concerns are for all students." -Todd Finch Paschal, Finch Putting student government back into the hands of the students is one of the issues with which Student Government Association presidential can­ didates Paul Burleson and Billy Bunting are con­ cerned. If elected, they intend to create a student concerns liaison in the SGA cabinet. "This person will handle any problems a stu­ dent may have with an organization, a professor, or the like," Bunting said. "He or she would be a prob­ lem-solver." Increasing the circulation and improving the quality of the SGA newsletter is another way they plan to give SGA back to the students. "We would like to see it published more than once in a semes­ ter," Burleson said. "Also, we want to explain both sides of the issues, so students can make their own educated decisions." In addition, they said they will con­ tinue to meet with organizations after the cam­ paign, publish the SGA minutes in The Appa­ lachian, and have a president and vice presi­ dent report on university and Boone activi­ ties. Expansion of Mountaineer Escort is another issue they plan to address. They want to start paying workers in order to make sure service is available, and to expand the hours of op­ eration into the weekends. "We would like to see the escort service funded through the federal work study program," Burleson said. Environmental issues they plan to address include more recycling facilities, increased aware­ ness and preservation of campus beauty. "We would like to see rubber recycling con­ tainers on each floor in every residence hall," Bunting said. "Someone on that floor would be responsible for maintaining it." Burleson and Bunting also expressed their concerns for AIDS testing in the infirmary. "We have set up a plan to make testing more confidential by creating anonymous appointment cards," Burleson Expansion of Belk Library hours and services is one of the main concerns of Student Government Association presidential candidates Ray Paschal and Todd Finch. As an SGA off-campus senator, Finch started to seriously look into extending Belk Library hours last semester. "As of now, Belk Library is only open until midnight on Sunday through Thursday. [This] con­ flicts with those students who work late during these nights," Finch said. According to Finch, they would like to see the library stay open until 2 or 3 a.m. on Sunday through Thursday. In addition, Paschal said they will suggest that the library transfer all periodicals on to CD-ROM. Weaver, Martin "That way it would free up the entire middle floor," Paschal said. Some other concerns they have addressed A key concern of Student Government As­ sociation presidential candidates Darby Weaver and Robyn Martin is students' lack of input into student government and the university. Their plan to increase student involvement is called "Appalachian 2000." According to the plan, students will participate by answering surveys dis­ tributed to students in classrooms. Martin expressed her excitement about the plan. "Appalachian 2000 is a proactive plan that not only addresses growth concerns for the university, but also addresses the concern that every student on campus have an outlet for their voice," Martin said. Improvements in Belk Library is another concern of these candidates. Weaver said they would build support for increased library funding through monthly visits to Raleigh. "We are committed to building the legisla­ tive support in Raleigh needed to ensure that the library is allocated the funds it desper­ ately needs," Weaver said. Weaver also wants to create legislation in SGA asking funds collected from the centen­ nial campaign to be directed to Belk Library. "If the centennial campaign is expected to raise approximately $30 million for the uni­ versity, then certainly it is appropriate that at least 3 million be given to the library," Weaver said. In addition, they would like to restructure the library orientation tour, establish a student plan­ ning committee to advise on upcoming library reno­ vations, and create a quick referral system to aid in the location of materials. Diversity on SGA cabinet and senate is an­ other concern Weaver and Martin want to address. "Diversity will be one of the first things to get done," Martin said. "We want to try to represent all con­ stituencies on campus." Weaver gave an example of how they would advertise the cabinet positions.

Adams and Director of Stu­ dent Affairs April Farwell introduced a bill Tuesday in SGA Senate suggesting that members of the faculty pay for using stu­ dent facilities. Senator April Baucom sponsored the bill that asks faculty members to pay for the use of student support facilities such as the Quinn and swimming pool. Currently student fees pay for the entire $300,000 cost of running facilities like the Quinn. However, faculty and staff are allowed to use these facilities free of charge. Adams explained why this issue needs to be addressed. "My concern spurred from the recent increase in stu­ dent fees," Adams said.

"We have 1,000 on-go­ ing clients during the semester," said Donald Sanz, director of the Counseling and Psychologi­ cal Services Center. On average, the total number of students using the center's services are around 3,000. The top 10 most com­ mon therapy issues students face are: conflicts with relation­ ships regarding partners, fam­ ily, friends and roommates; de­ pression; development/transi­ tion choices and issues; stress; anxiety; grief/loss; self-esteem and sexual abuse. Eating disorders such as anorexia and bulimia are fre­ quent problems students face. "Anorexia is a complex problem we deal with," said Sanz. "Bulimia is two times as common as anorexia." National statistics based on reports from other col­ lege counseling centers show a small percentage of college stu­ dents fighting these disorders but it does not mean more stu­ dents are not suffering from them. Others might not have been diagnosed with either ail­ ment. "Two percent of college students are anorexic and four percent are bulimic," Sanz said. "This is a national statistic of col­ lege counseling." Bulimia is also one of the 10 most frequent diagnosis of Appalachian's students, accord­ ing to a handout by the counsel­ ing center. Other frequent diagnosis are: depression, adjustment dis­ order (difficulty in relating to sur­ roundings), personality disorder (maladaptive in social situa­ tions), family conflicts, post-trau­ matic stress disorder (flashbacks from a past traumatic experi­ ence), marital problems, grief/ loss and alcohol dependence or abuse. The counseling center sees 25 percent of the Appala­ chian student population but the visitor amount varies. "Typically we see people short term, an average of four to five sessions," said Sanz. "Some students come longer." Sessions are confidential unless the student says otherwise or unless the student is putting himself/herself in danger. "We are legally bound not to divulge information and these records are kept separately from infirmary records," Sanz said. Students can walk in or make an appointment with six full time staff members, includ­ ing five psychologists and one counselor. The Counseling and Psy­ chological Services Center is free to students and staff. Suicide attempts not uncommon at ASU Stacey Evans one is attempting to kill them­ selves. *Tell other people as soon as possible. *Stay with the person trying to kill themselves - they are in danger. *Listen - encourage the person to talk you. *Urge the suicidal person to seek professional help and be supportive - show you care. Students are encour­ aged to contact the Counsel­ ing and Psychological Services Center as soon as possible if a friend or loved one is attempt­ ing suicide. Students may con­ tact the center during the day at 262-3180 or at 262-2150 (campus security) at evening emergency hours. Reporter Suicide can seem like a way out for some students going through difficult times, and it isn't uncommon at Appalachian. At ASU, around 40 seri­ ous attempted suicides occur each year. On average, two sui­ cides are successful per year. Suicide rates are higher among first semester freshman and graduate students. Warning signs for sui­ cide are: suicidogenic situations (situations concerning great loss, disappointment and/or trauma); depressive symptoms such as low energy, sad, sloppy etc.; verbal and behavioral warnings like "I want to die" and giving away possessions.

"We want to start by ex­ panding hours during exams and then during the crunch times, for example Monday, Tuesday and Wednesday," Bunting said. They want to promote campus safety by installing more blue light security phones and other programs. "We want to make sure that blue lights are put in the right places," Burleson said. They also want to see more light­ ing in places such as the Appala­ chian Heights parking lot. Other issues they plan to address include: improving infir­ mary/student relations, support­ ing an increase in parking, ex­ panding the all-you-can eat pro­ gram and improving food services, and creating a student discount card for area merchants. In order to promote di­ versity on their cabinet and in senate, they promise to advertise availability of the positions. "We intend to put signs in all residence halls, and send fly­ ers to organizations so we can get a diverse group of applicants so we can pick the best qualified," Burleson said. Bunting projected what SGA would look like if they were elected. "There will be a fair and equal representation of all stu­ dents in student government," Bunting said. Burleson believes that their relationship with administra­ tion will be excellent. "I think Billy and I will be very effective when talking to the administra­ tion," he said. Bunting is also confident they will work well with adminis­ trators. "We feel that the admin­ istration is willing to cooperate," Bunting said. "What the adminis­ tration needs is a president and vice president who will push them in order to achieve what the stu­ dents want.

Weaver said they want to create legislation that would ask there be no loss of parking because of construc­ tion. "We feel strongly that we have no further loss of parking due to construction on campus," Weaver said. "If we don't have a plan to create parking, how can we afford to lose any?" Other issues they sup­ port include increased recycling education programs, expansion of residence hall recycling, a gradu­ ation celebration and continued opposition to tuition increases. Weaver explained what she feels her relationship with ad­ ministrators would be. "We will work hard to bring the concerns of the students to the administra­ tion and see that they are ac-' knowledged," she said. V ® - ei ganizations representing a wide range of constituencies, and in­ viting their leaders to become a part of SGA," she said. They also plan to estab­ lish a diversity awareness week which would end with a festival of diversity. "Awareness week will feature people speaking to raise awareness on diversity," Martin said. "The festival will have cul­ tural events with different groups sponsoring them." Weaver explained their plan to have an international stu­ dent celebration. "This will help integrate them into the campus community," Weaver said. " We want to bring all kinds of groups together." Martin explained that in­ creasing diversity in the faculty is another key concern of theirs. "Bringing everyone to­ gether to work toward diversity is our goal," Martin said. "We must let faculty and administra­ tion know that we are ready to see extended efforts on this issue.

Students' ability to easily access computers is another key concern of Paschal and Finch. They would like to see computers sold at the bookstore with the op­ tion of a lease/purchase agree­ ment. Also, they would make SGA minutes and course syllabi avail­ able o n the VAX. "Com­ puters are the wave of the future," Finch said. "Students should be able to have this technology." In addition, they would like to see computer data ports in all residence hall rooms and estab­ lish a 24-hour study and computer room in the Plemmons Student Union. Paschal and Finch also expressed their concerns for a di­ verse and qualified SGA cabinet. "We want to create a position for Multicultural Affairs on the cabi­ net," Paschal said.

"We want to seek out a more diverse cabinet... but we will not sacrifice quality," Paschal said. Environmental issues are also a concern of Paschal and Finch. "We want to establish a re­ cycling education program that would be a part of freshman semi­ nars and the orientation process," continued from page 1 Finch said. They would also like to establish a"two-for-one tree deal," where the university would be re­ quired to plant two trees for every one removed. Increased health services for students is another concern of these candidates. They explained there is a need to hire a nurse prac­ titioner to deal specifically with women's health concerns. Also they said they would support hir­ ing a nutritionist for students, and create nutrition guides for all food services on campus. Another issue they wish to address is the current advising sys­ tem. They want to establish an advising contract system. Students would sign an agreement with their advisors that would guaran­ tee they graduate if the advisor's plan is followed. "If an advisor is going to advise they should know what they are doing," Finch said. Other issues they are con­ cerned with include reviewing the prices in the Market and book­ store, opposing tuition increases, establishing campus clean-up days, and expanding the Moun­ taineer Escort service. "We know the issues on campus," Finch said. "Our plat­ form clearly represents that our concerns are for all students." "I have had a lot of expe­ rience in the past working with administrators," Paschal said.

Beware the Internet's dark s What about these platform While the on-line system is hot; it can be dangerous goals? Jason Wilkinson Election time is one of hope every individual hopes to be the ultimate in­ formed voter that picks a candidate that will make a true difference. More importantly, and just as unre­ alistic as the above comment, it is also a time of promises promises that are made by the candidates we so closely scrutinize. Are these promises for real, or are they hollow? Either way, The Appalachian feels that these promises and platform goals are the key to getting elected, so we thought we'd give all three of the SGA presidential and vice presidential can­ didates a few last-minute ideas to ensure more votes. Please take heed, because these could easily sway the masses in your favor. 1. Fix the ice machine in the Gold Room. Getting a glass of ice should not | be the awful experience it is now. Eithey,propose that the ice machine be re­ paired so that it does not spray the user, or call for bigger cups to be used instead of the small wannabe-fancy ones. 2. The library is a hot platform goal, and we have something else to focus on. Switch the exit and entrance doors they are backwards by bad design. If studies were done, it could be shown that most students instinctively stay in the right lane when entering into a twolane situation (kind of like when driv­ ing). 3. Make sure the food court has the correct lids for their cups. Students should not have to go through the daily struggle of never being able to find the right one to fit. 4. ACES proved that some stu­ dents support a more beautiful Appa­ lachian, so do something about the socalled fountain in front of Sanford Hall. It needs to be ... well, a fountain. 5. And while we're on fountains, fix the water fountain outside The Appa­ lachian office. We have worked hard to cover your campaigns, so do us a favor. 6. Offer to make slight Rankin Sci­ ence Building renovations. This could include signs or markers so students, especially freshmen, can weave their way in and out of the labyrinth safely. So there it is. The candidates cannot go wrong if they will adopt some of these goals for their platforms it is not too late for some minor adjustments. These are hard-hitting issues that are real to students. If you really want to make a difference, and we know you do, make promises that students want to truly see kept. demic faith on the mighty shoulders of ding, mushing, or whatever it is / caffeine. currently being called ...why they / / , Most folks have heard of the Internet. don't just say "playing games" I'll / All the big magazines have recently had never know), but this business of / / 11 articles in some form relating to the "net," g a m e playing is w h e r e it be- / / jt as it is called by us hipsters.

I k from experience. Went. I waited, I waited a "tore, and I walked out with white paper bag filled with "ol and Amoxicillin (the won­ der drug for strep throat). By look­ ing at my prescription sheet, I no­ ticed that there were three doctors names in the bottom corner. After reading the names, a stroke of bril­ liance overwhelmed me: there are only three doctors that serve ASU. Three doctors to tend to hundreds of patients a day. They have the in-patients, the out-patients, and the appointments to attend to. physician or two would certainly ease the pain. I know that there are students out there who feel the same way as I do, and worse, about the situation. Although my patience was growing thin as I waited, I was able to keep my com­ posure. Others in the waiting area seemed almost hostile as they watched the clock turn slowly for­ wards. The infirmary should be commended for their work. The staff is professional and organized. At times you may feel like a number and not a name, but for the most part, I was satisfied with the service. We as students may have a greater tendency to get sick because of where we are. Some of us may not eat as well as we used to, as far as nutrition and health are concerned. We live and are active around hundreds of people, and germs spread quickly around the campus. Try to eat well, and if you get sick, rest, and do what the infir­ mary tells you. In other words, when you go to Food Lion, pass up on that Busch Light special and buy some orange juice. "I went. I waited. I waited a little more, and I walked out with a little white paper bag filled with Tylenol and Amoxicillin." ASU needs more physicians. Stu­ dents do not have the time to sit in the infirmary for half of the day. Although society at times may characterize students as a group of slackers seeking degrees, the majority of us have busy schedules that can't sustain a three hour in­ firmary visit. I have no idea about the logistics regarding the medi­ cal budget for ASU, but an added Tim Johnson ASU Box 15203 Darby Weaver Need for ACC is undeniable Keep it down in ACS lab To the Editor: Matt Williford's Feb. 23 column on the convocation center ("The ACC is not what Appalachian needs") is exactly why this university is at a stalemate. The run-down Varsity Gym is an eyesore. We need a modern facility as an on-campus landmark we can be proud of. Appala­ chian cannot grow in the future with their outdated facilities. My high school gym is nicer. My brother and my sister graduated years ago, and I graduate this May. I wish I could invite them to a ceremony held in some­ thing other than that warehouse we call Varsity Gym. A convoca­ tion center could bring back some spirit that has been lost at Appa­ lachian. We need the money more than other schools- if we don't use it to our advantage other schools will pass us by. A good example is ECU- look at their new facility and how it has brought back some spirit to a traditional football school.

Actually, I should be typing an English paper, however, I am con­ tinually distracted by the loud talking and often even yelling of the employees who work at this lab. As if the phone ringing wasn't enough! I know that the lab can­ not be completely silent, due to printers and other people on key­ boards. I classify typing as study­ ing.

Dan Cummins ASU Box 18068 �The Appalachian, Thursday 16 March Page 8 159s' Fraternity responds to criticism of ad Rc Fe on en thi mi mi lin he th W d< ni ui tr a fl a 4 To the Editor: In response to an letter to the editor in The Appalachian, we would like to help clarify some of the possible misleading informa­ tion that you stated about our (Pi Lambda Phi's) last advertisement in the student newspaper ("Reader questions points in ad," Feb.23). The article is a factual state­ ment about our fraternity here at ASU. It is not statistical in nature as was stated in the letter. The fact that 1) we were founded by a West­ ern Carolina transfer student in 1989, is not a statistic. The next two facts that we stated contained numbers that were facts about our current stand­ ing as a group. The numbers were at no means to be used as a statis­ tical datum. 2) We have initiated 56 brothers since then. 3) We now have 20 active brothers this semes­ ter, as well as12 alumni in the area. Number four, which you re­ ferred to the most, is a fact that was obviously misinterpreted. 4) We are a heterosexual group of men that wish to affiliate ourselves with the ASU IFC in the near future. Since you have brought this to our attention, we should, in order to be politically correct, have said that we were a group of men that have all types of backgrounds. It is not our concern if a brother is black, white, American, Asian, heterosexual, or homo­ sexual. The purpose of the fraternity's brotherhood is to pro­ mote the elements of brotherhood in an environment free of discrimi­ nation. The true spirit of brother­ hood exists in very few places in today's troubled world. We firmly believe that we of­ fer as fine an example of brotherly spirit, cooperation and devotion as can be found anywhere. This does not exclude anybody of the male gender. Being a Pi Lambda Phi brother does not mean that we are expected to surrender any of our legal or social rights, personal ties, or moral beliefs. Our status as an individual changes only in that we have accepted a new responsibil­ ity. Number four's purpose was to separate us from another fraternity that is similar to our name, but different. The other fraternity is based on the fact that you can be a homosexual, or one who is will­ ing to accept homosexuals, and is different from ours in one major way. We accept all men. 5) We are by no means preju­ dice, and we welcome the addition of any man of integrity regardless of race or creed. It is true, and a fact that we stand behind as a brotherhood. If you or anybody have any questions please call 2642625. We will be happy to answer any questions that you have. Michael T.

"ALEO presents students with the op. gtunity to explore their leadership styles 1,) capabilities in a different way than i ey're used to," said Quinn. Students are confronted with chaljies different from those they may face their day-to-day lives, and the entire ;ogram is based on the belief that "ev, individual is fat mores capable than I y1 • t ,r.iv!' *" ** ey first believe. The activities in the program, which -jge from traveling and camping in the •lierness to rock climbing to a solo extience, are designed to give students the portunity to explore themselves as well .low they interact with others. This is ALEO's fourth year. Each year, e program is held in a different loca- tion. The first year's location was Grand­ father Mountain and Little Lost Cove Cliffs. " W e didn't use the tourist trails on Grandfa­ ther," said Quinn. "We did a 'rock scurry' in­ stead, climb­ ing up the rock face where there were no trails." Mount Rogers, the highest peak in Virginia, was the site of the sec­ ond expedi­ tion, and the third year found the group in Linville Gorge. This year's loca­ tion, however, is still a surprise. Details about the trip's activities are kept closely guarded, because Quinn feels the experience is more effective that way. "We want participants to deal with the situations as they arise," said Quinn. This from-the-hip approach makes dealing with conflicts and problems easier when students are faced with them in their capacities as leaders on campus. Rich Campbell, Outdoor Programs' together. So many campus organizations often have the same ideas, but just can't get together to implement them. This pro­ gram gives them the opportunity to work together and helps increase com­ munication between the groups." Quinn agrees, calling it a "seed effect." "By having an impact on 12 dif­ ferent leaders, you're planting a seed," said Quinn. "We end up serving a larger number of people by serving the 12, because they're going back implementing what they've learned, and giving others the chance to learn by example." Some of the groups who have benefited from this course include SGA, Student Ambassadors and the Phi Beta Lambda Business Fra­ ternity to name a few.

In Boone, Espresso News fills this bill but with Boone style. When approaching the small cafe on Howard Street, hidden behind Boone Drug, you will instantly feel as though you've stepped back in time. I always get the feeling I will see a James Dean look- alike sitting at the bar, looking through the thick plate glass over a cup of five cent joe. If this is what you feel as well, prepare to be surprised. "We are not as intensive as a full book store cafe," said owner Mark Debroder. He feels as though he is providing a laid back atmosphere for conversation up front, and reading in back. They have an open policy about the magazines they carry. Feel free to browse through one as you sip an espresso. "We are still kind of feel­ ing things out," said Debroder, "but we are get­ ting the business of locals and quite a few students." They provide a nice relaxed atmosphere for studying, and easy access for an after­ noon break. Debroder lived in Cali­ fornia for a while, and cof­ fee houses were a given, which he felt was perfect for students. After managing a bookstore cafe in WinstonSalem, he got the idea to put one in Boone. His dreams culminated on Oct. 14 of last year. Also in Boone, just off (photo by John Lane) campus on King Street, is the outdoors," said Mclntyre, "but it gave me experience without putting too much stress on me mentally or physically. You don't have to be a skilled outdoorsperson or hiker to enjoy the trip and get a lot out of it." Like all Outdoor Programs trips, the ALEO is led by OFs highly-trained staff. Brent Cochran and Quinn are regular lead­ ers of ALEO, and some other student tripleaders are alsb involved. Unlike other OP trips, however, the ALEO provides a longer learning experi­ ence. Students who have been on day trips often say they wish the trips were longer, because they just begin to learn something and have fun with it when the trip is over. \\ "We get a lot of comments that the trips are too short," said Campbell. "The four-day experience allows us to expand on the things that we get to do on our regular day trips." ALEO participants can be either un­ dergraduate or graduate students who have completed at least15 hours and have a cumulative GPAofat least 2.5. Students should be in or committed to entering a leadership position in a university recog­ nized organization. 11 Applications are being accepted through Friday, April 7 in the Outdoor Pro­ grams office in the Student Union. Selec­ tion will be based on applications |i|d a short interview. Participants will receive a full scholarship to attend the program. Steven Mackay Reporter -.«r *n 'UFi (photo by John Lane) beansTalk cafe. For three years now, they have been promoting exactly what the front window reads: "Coffee is the bever­ age of thoughts, dialogue, and dreams." Owner Greg Swedberg grew up around the Boone area, and when he re­ turned he was surprised to see that no cof­ fee houses already existed. He filled a much needed niche for himself. "It's definitely worked out better than what I expected," said Swedberg, "but we had a lot of support almost instanta­ neously." Despite the tremendous trend cycles they have encountered, Swedberg finds now that he likes the diversity of custom­ ers, and stays on a very friendly level with the regulars. There is a spot on the ceiling for regu­ lars to bring in and hang their own mugs. This will save you twenty cents a cup! Most customers are students or locals, but due to their location, tourist traffic through the doors have increased lately. The students play a large roll in beansTalk. Unlike most cafes, the art on the walls is not on consignment, but stu­ dents displays. "They are decorating my wall. They are doing me a favor," said Swedberg. But if one sells, then the cafe is showing sup­ port for their supporters. Student groups perform as well, which allows beansTalk to offer a wide variety of entertainment. They have live jazz and acoustic acts throughout the week. As for which I enjoy most of the three in the area, it depends on the mood.

That man is Forrest Gump. The ultra smash-hit movie received an astounding 13 nominations. He's bound to win some­ thing. Before I begin my picks for this year's Oscars, I have to make a confession. I have no idea what I'm doing, and I haven't seen most of the nominated movies. Whew! I am so happy I got that off my chest. Now - onward with my predictions. Best music score and original song will go to "The Lion King." Why? Hans Zimmetis score is king of the mountain. Plus, three of the five nominated songs are from "King." The winner will be "Can You Feel the Love Tonight." They should just rename these categories "Best Disney Stuff of the Year." Best sound and sound effects editing will go to "Speed." After hearing this movie, you'll never ride public transpor­ tation again and feel safe. Best visual effects will without a doubt go to "Forrest Gump." These guys made Forrest meet JFK and erased Gary Sinise's legs. They deserve a box of Oscars . . . and some chocolates, too. The Oscar for art direction should go to "Pulp Fiction," but it wasn't nominated. So, it will go to "Interview with the Vam­ pire." Loved those coffins! The award for cinematography will go to "Forrest Gump." America's favorite son would never have looked so good if it wasn't for this. The prize for best editing will go to "Pulp Fiction." The editor intertwined three stories into one fast-paced, mixedup two-and-a-half hour extravaganza. Adapted screenplay will go to "Forrest Gump". Every other word in this movie has made its way into our pop culture. T he best line of the year? "Stupid is as stu­ pid does." Original Screenplay will definitely go to Quentin Tarantino for his brilliant "Pulp Fiction." Every word in this movie sizzled on the mouths of the actors. A fabulous story. The Oscar for best supporting actress will most likely go to Dianne Wiest for her much-praised performance in "Bullets Over Broadway." The best supporting actor will be Martin Landau for his portrayal of Bela See Oscar page 10 �The Appalachian, Thursday 16 March Oscar Lugosi in "Ed Wood." Samuel L. Jackson has an outside and much deserved shot for his part in "Pulp Fiction." The race for best actress is up in the air. However, when the chips fall, I think Jodie Foster will win her third Oscar for her fabu­ lous work in "Nell." The best actor race is also tight. However, I'm willing to bet that Tom Hanks will make it two in a row with his much beloved performance in "Forrest Gump." He should take a year off and give somebody else a chance. The best director Oscar will go to Robert Zemeckis, the man who gave us "Forrest Gump." After years of churning out hits like "Who Framed Roger Rabbit," he deserves it. I'm pulling for "Pulp Fiction" director Quentin Tarantino. The winner of the best pic­ ture? Can you say "Life is like a box of Oscars?" There's no doubt about it. Oscar loves "Forrest Gump" as much as America does. So, the story of a simple man will continued from page 9 win the most coveted prize in Hol­ lywood. I wish "Pulp Fiction" would win it, but what do I know? That pretty much sums up my guessing game for this year. Whether or not I'm right remains to be seen. Send letters to ASU Box 9025 Coffee continued from page 9 could just as well drink a double latte over music and chess at beansTalk. How do the owners feel about their proximity? Swedburg said, "Espresso News has created a 'li­ brary' cafe which is something that was needed. But as far as competi­ tion, there really is none." Debroder feels the same, add­ ing, "We are mutually beneficial." After all, coffee is a beverage adapt­ able to anyone and any situation. So drink all you want, they'll brew more.

ASU's Musgrave a hot commodity Kevin Robinson Reporter Scott Musgrave almost didn't come to Appalachian State. After this year, he may leave. Musgrave, a 6'2", 195-pound lefthanded pitcher/outfielder for the Moun­ taineers, had plenty of choices after high school. In his senior year at Princeton High ("way down east," according to Musgrave) he was 12-1 and batted .379, leading his team to the 1992 North Caro­ lina state championship. Not only did lots of colleges recruit him, a few pro teams scouted him as well, both for his batting and his 88-mph fastball. "San Diego looked at me a lot," Musgrave says. "I could have signed out of high school, but my parents wouldn't have let me go whether I got drafted or not." Still, Musgrave came to Appalachian, knowing that once a player goes to col­ lege he has to wait until he turns 21 or becomes a junior before he is eligible for the draft. He said he came to ASU be­ cause he knew he would play his fresh­ man year. "I had a lot of offers, but I knew I'd get to play right off the bat up here." His decision paid off. He pitched his best game his freshman year against a great Georgia Southern team. Appala­ page 13 chian lost that game 2-0, but Musgrave pitched a complete game and didn't let the nation's leading home-run hitter get on base. Altogether, Musgrave says he is glad he came to ASU. "The weather sucks, our field is terrible, but I like it," he said. So far this year he is 0-2 as a pitcher, but that includes a no-decision against the Citadel. He left the game in the sixth inning with a 6-3 lead, and Appalachian ended up losing 7-6. Musgrave has fared better as a hitter this season. He is batting .348 (8 for 23) with six runs and two RBIs. Includ­ ing two walks, his on-base percentage is .400 (10 for 25). He is also having a good year in the field. He has not committed an error in four games as an outfielder and five games as a pitcher. So the question now is whether Musgrave will stay at Appalachian after this, his Junior year. He calls this year's squad "the best team we've had since Fve been here." Their 3-11 record may not seem to reflect that, but ASU has had four one-run losses. He thinks he can still do a lot more for the team, and he likes coach Jim Morris and his team­ mates. But the dream of the major leagues and the big paychecks is very inviting for the 20-year-old, just as it is for every other young player hoping to play pro­ fessionally. "I think after this year I'll get drafted," he said, "it will just be a mat­ ter of whether I want to go or not." Special to The Appalachian On Saturday and Sunday, April 1 2, the Blowing Rock Chamber of Commerce, along with the Blowing Rock Merchants Association, is inviting every­ one to participate in the Annual Blowing . Hock Trout Derby. For over 16 years the Derby has at­ tracted anglers of Ml ages from all °ver the High Country. These two days are a great only opportunity to not only kick off open­ ing day of fishing season, but also to win prizes and big money. Once a§ain, anglers will have the opportunity t0 natch one of these tagged fish, two Worth $200 and one at $100. While such lakes as Price Lake and Tr°ut Lake have been favorites in the Past, many prize winning fish have come from other public waters such as the Watauga River and smaller public streams. "This should be a wonderful Trout Season," said a high-ranking Derby offi­ cial. "We should see a great increase in the number offish in the pubic waters." In keeping with State Wildlife regu'ations, the Derby will begin at 6 a.m. on and Derby Rules sey that trout are eligible and will be judged and measured. Darryl Stevens Staff Writer The Sixty-Four are here. Today, hungry college basketball fans from coast to coast are about to be fed their just deserts. The NCAA tournament is only as far away as your next breath, and if you've ignored amateur roundball this season, it's time to make amends. Let's talk Atlantic Coast Conference chances at the crown. Wake Forest's top seed in the East Regional was a direct re­ sult of the Demon Deacons' performance in the basketball world's toughest confer­ ence (excluding the NBA's Eastern Con­ ference - maybe). The North Carolina oyals who are upset about this, and the Heels' number two seeding in the South­ east, need to face the facts: potential is potential. But hey, UNC only lost the ACC championship, remember? The year is not finished yet. If they deserved that One seed, they'll avenge themselves by riding that abundant talent to Seattle. The tendency is to dub Coach Dave Odom's squad overachievers, but this team is a good one. To base their success on past shortcomings is useless. All that matters is now, and right now Wake is the hottest team at tourney's dawn. The 1995 Randolph Childress Show­ case may or may not last into the tourna­ ment, but he has proven that he's prime time with a hand in his face. Think any NBA eyes were opened this weekend in Greensboro? Guess again. This guy has done it all season long - he's no hidden gem. As for Dean Smith and Co., they have the perfect justification for the overtime loss to Wake Forest on Sunday. Rasheed Wallace's ankle sprain in the second half obviously hurt UNC's cause at crunch time, and that may have cost them the game. Then again, it may not have.

The official measuring station will be at the Blowing Rock Hardware, located on Main Street in Blowing Rock. The tagged fish must be registered, along with the other fish, in order to claim prize money or other prizes. Three tagged fish will be released by offi­ cials, two which will be released in public waters and the third will be re­ leased in Broyhill Lake, where only children under 10 will be able to fish. All fish must be reg­ istered no later than 5 p.m. on Sunday. Trophies for first place winners in five divisions will be awarded at 6 p.m. on Sun­ day. The trophies will be presented to the largest Trout registered in the following division: Men's, Women s, Girl s, Boy's, Small Fry and a new Parent/Child divi­ sion. Not only will there be trophies, but also wonderful prizes for 1st, 2nd and 3rd place winners in each division. But those not catching large enough trout to win 1st, 2nd, or 3rd place, shouldn't be discour­ aged from entering the Derby. Everyone who registers will have the chance to win other prizes. ACC teams ready for the big dance ' �Page 12 The Appalachian, Thursday 16 Mj^ Remember Roller Derby and Michael Jordan were guaranteed cool points. Juking's not for everyone. Most athletes in modern times just stagger in place for 15 or 20 sec­ onds, not gaining too much for­ ward ground, until the other team buries him. Darryl Stevens Staff Writer What do you miss about child­ hood? I miss G.I. Joe and Trans­ former toys, jackets with 57 use­ less zippers on the outside, the chicken pox, and city league sports. But most of all, I miss roller derby. You can't have forgotten about roller derby. It's that sport where a dozen people in grosslooking jumpsuits, helmets and el­ bow pads skate around a minirink, cramming each other into the outside railing for points. Roller derby is a shady cousin to profes­ sional wrestling. If that doesn't sound like a winner, nothing will. If auto racing and the 4x400 relay had a baby, this would be it. Roller derby also revived the lost art of juking. Faking somebody out of their shoes is a talent that fans just don't appreciate anymore - a skill to which no one dedicates himself. The NFEs Barry Sanders is probably one of the only true Juke masters left in sports. Backyard football was always a good forum to show off your new Jukes. If you could, shake-n-bake somebody badly enough to make them fall flat on their behind, you I •I i TAKE A SECOND LOOK For consideration: more ath­ letes who resemble someone else in the entertainment world: *Houston Rocker guard Scott Brooks and thespian Emilio Estevez. *Duke interim coach Pete Gaudet and "Luther" from the Coach sitcom.. *NBA coach George Karl and actor John Lithgow. *Phoenix bomber Dan Majerle and actor Woody Harrelson. *Houston star Clyde Drexler and super producer Quincy Jones. FLIGHT DELAY Michael Jordan's written statement to the press reads some­ thing like, "the baseball strike has hampered my ability to hone my skills on the field." Please. You can fool some of the people all of the time, but you can't . . . well, who cares how that line actually goes. The bottom line is that Jordan's imminent return to the NBA likely has little to do with the strike. Is he kidding us? This may be a misplaced notion (it wouldn't be the first or the last on my part), but it's just possible that Jordan has found the strike to be the perfect excuse to go AWOL. His competitive streak is secret to no literate person. The fierce card games, the trips to ca­ sinos, the golf contests ... we all know about his thirst for sport. To be the best in anything, especially a sport as popular in today's world as basketball, takes a serious fire inside a person. That's probably the reason Air is coming back (excuse me; MAY BE coming back, hardy-har). As one reporter diplomatically puts it, Jordan's not much farther along with his baseball than those re­ placement players, and we've all known at least one person who quit something because they weren't among the best at it. The worst part of all may be that, in three years or so (when he will re-retire), some of Jordan's colleagues in the NBA could over­ shadow him on the hardwood. So what happens then, when he can no longer dominate? Golf.

"We've been planning all along to move the Sweet Shop during Spring Break. However, due to the weather and other circumstances, the plans have be­ come a little more tenuous," Robbins said.

Tenn. located an Appalachian State University student in Roan Mountain State Park Sun­ day night after he drifted off the marked trail and headed away from his three com­ panions after an overnight camping trip. Matthew Todd Nelson appeared uninjured when rescuers located him around 10 p.m. Sunday. About 30 volun­ teers from the Roan Mountain community participated in the search at one time, along with a team of bloodhounds, heli­ copter, rescue squad and sheriff's depart­ ment after three friends reported him missing around 4 p.m.. Chad Michael Skinner said the two women in the group left the Doll Flats campsite at 11 a.m. Sunday. Skinner and Nelson left half an hour later carrying most of the camping equipment. Nelson had complained of knee pains the day before, causing him to walk a little slower than Skinner. As the two progressed down the trail, Skinner said Nelson seemed to fade back into the dis­ tance. When Skinner left the woods, he assumed Nelson was far behind. Having met up with the two women, the three hikers climbed toward the summit of an open pastoral hill. Skin­ ner said several times, the group looked back and spotted Nelson'not far behind.

"We really wish it was next week, but we're hoping the student union will be com­ pleted by mid-April." "There is still a lot of work left to be done." said Dubberly. "The reason we're hav­ ing to close down the Sweet Shop on Friday is that we have five days to get out of the space be­ fore contractors are scheduled to begin renovations. We're doing this to make sure that the project isn't held up anymore." Amy Noble, a senior and the Student Manager of the Sweet Shop, said the full-time employees will be placed into dif­ ferent positions before students return from spring break. As for the part-time stu­ dent employees, Noble said they have two options: to transfer to other food service locations on campus or contact the Student Coordinator's office to find an­ other job within Food Services. Danielle Sarine, fresh­ man and a part-time employee, said when he found out Hiesday, "I had no clue that they were clos­ ing it (the Sweet Shop) so soon." "I'm really going to miss the Sweet Shop when spring rolls around," said sophomore Nikki Jacob. While some students are lamenting over the fact that they will be without the Sweet Shop for a few weeks, some are able to see the bright side of the situa­ tion. "Although I'm worried about the number of hours I'll be able to work now, I'm really ex­ cited about the fact that Cascades Cafe will be opening soon," said Emily Ropp, a freshman who works for the Sweet Shop.

Sweet Shop closing: a sour turn of events Gone are the days of reading a news­ paper while drinking a cup of coffee, hav­ ing an ice-cream cone, or eating a sand­ wich at the Sweet Shop. As of Friday, March 3, the doors to the Sweet Shop will be closing, due to construction. The next time the doors to the Sweet Shop open, they will be opening in the new part of the student union, known as The Cascades Cafe. "When will this be?" you ask. Good question. Unfortunately, it's also a question that no one seems to be able to answer with any certainty. Ron Dubberly, the director of Food Services, says the Sweet Shop will reopen in mid-April "hopefully." This, of course, cannot be guaranteed because we are waiting on things such as electricity, wir­ ing, lighting, painting and equipment. Perhaps we should mention that the same people in charge of building the stu­ dent union are the ones we will wait on to get this done. Now, when was the stu­ dent union originally scheduled to be com­ pleted? There is some consolation, however. The Gold Room will be serving readymade sandwiches beginning March 13. That's all well and good, but there will still be no place to buy ice cream or yo­ gurt. To serve those items, continuous running water is needed as well as a large space to house the freezers. Unfortu­ nately, there is no place available which meets those qualifications. Dubberly said that the sweets usually purchased in the Sweet Shop are already available through other places, such as Sugar & Spice in the Food Court. That may be true, but the big picture is miss­ ing in that logic. Most people go to the Sweet Shop not just for the food (although the ice cream served there has become somewhat of a mainstay of The Appalachian staff), but for the atmosphere. The Cafeteria and the Food Court hold a lot more people. More people means more noise. The university should have waited to start construction until The Cascades Cafe was ready to open. Fine time for the con­ struction workers to start rushing. All-in-all, the closing of the Sweet Shop is a travesty not just for those of us who spend a lot of time in the Student Union, but for all students. Poor planning has led to a situation which will be detri­ mental to students as well as the University's purse.

TANNINE APPAIACAA/A/V SA/VDS AE 40WAGHMA Checking out the job market To the Editor: Jennifer Spiess' column, "Checking out the job market" (Feb. 23) undermines the work ethic of all students in general, es­ pecially those who are paying for their own tuition. I personally have been employed in many dif­ ferent types of jobs since I have been a student both high school and college. I have worked in fast food restaurants (as a waitress/server), jobs that require dress codes, and jobs that pay commission. Ms. Spiess' comments regarding these types of jobs are demeaning. Her comments are also incorrect. For instance: in commission jobs you are generally given an hourly rate or commission (whichever is higher); there is nothing wrong with wearing a uniform or dress­ ing up for your job; with fast food there are a lot of opportunities for advancement; and when waitressing or working in a fancy restaurant you may only make $2.13 per hour (on av­ erage), but you also make tips — which you receive that shift in cash. There are many other ben­ efits to these types of jobs, and you can gain a work ethic that cannot be gained in a job you slack-off in. What are future employers look­ ing for in potential employees, la­ ziness or a hard work ethic that reflects well on the employee and the organization as well?

The girls participate in a variety of projects with the help of their advisor, Marian Edwards. The club originated approximately four years ago, when a group of 15 young African American women decided to set up an organization to assist with campus and community needs. The club received its charter on October 22,1991. Today, the young women work con­ sistently throughout the year with the Hospitality House. They even took on the ' \ difficult task of cleaning the building in order to provide a more comfortable at­ mosphere for the less fortunate. The Or­ der also contributed to the community by participating in the Walk America program for the March of Dimes earlier this year, and have worked with the Headstart Pro­ gram for children. The Secret Sister program is one which the girls take a special pride in. This program is an activity designed to promote self-esteem and accomplishment to kindergarten and first grade students. "We work with kids who have disci­ pline problems," said the Order's presi­ dent, Felicia Fluid. "We each work with one child, and talk with them about their problems and basically just help them to feel good about themselves." At the end of the program, the chil­ dren are given small treats from the girls. Since upholding high academic and moral standards is part of this organization's goals, the Secret Sister pro­ gram is not the only program the Order of Black and Gold gears at giving kids in the community self-esteem. The women are also working on what is known as the Super Star program. The Super Star program will take place through Harden Park Elementary School. "We'll be working with first and second graders," said Fluid. "We're going to talk about sharing and feeling good about themselves and others." see Order page 7 Before you go, some things you should know John Lane Assistant Features Editor Why drive 24 hours to arrive at a spring break destination knowing there will be no beach waiting when you arrive? Be­ cause you could end up out west, and have some Texas-sized fun while you're there. Austin, Texas National Geographic said, "There are three kinds of people in this world: Those 5PRIMC5 who know Austin and love it; those who BREAK want to go there and haven't; and the poor belighted souls who don't know what they are missing." Why would a college student looking for a good time over spring break heed this? The answer is simple; there is a lot more fun there than at any beach. The average age of residents of Austin is around the mid20s, and the University of Texas is there which has around 50.000 students. So finding others your age, and discovering where they go and what they do for fun, shouldn't be a prob­ lem. Austin gives bar hopping and clubbing whole new defini­ tions, and the place you will find the people you want to see is on Sixth Street. Out of the 100 or more Austin clubs and bars, most are congregated here. None are expensive, some boasting 50 cent cover charges and drinks, and you are sure to find one that fits your taste. Most of the clubs offer live music, and whether you want to two- step to a country band or sit back and relax with some jazz, you'll find it on Sixth Street. They offer blues, reggae and rock as well. When the night clubs and bars aren't the first order of busi­ ness, you will find plenty to do with your days as well. First of all, it is the state capital, so the archives of the state are housed in an Austin museum, and Texas easily has one of the richest histories of any state. Further, in true Texas fashion, the capital building itself is the biggest of the 50, and it's an impressive sight.

As ETSU qualified a bunch of their sprinters, ASU was left with only one finalist in a track event shorter than the 800m. ASU's sprint hopeful, Jason Dalton, pulled an already strained ham­ string in the preliminaries of the 55m dash. The ASU squad also had to watch other teams rack up valuable points in the events in which the Mountaineers had entered no one - long jump and shot put. While spirits may have dropped tempo­ rarily, they were quickly uplifted with an ASU 1st, 2nd, 3rd sweep of the 3000 meters. Tom Holland took the lead from the first steps to the tape, carrying a trail of other cross country types. Just steps behind Tom's 8:26 win was the metro­ nome-like stride of Brian Miesch at 8:28. 1995 Southern Conference freshman of the year Sloth Peoples started his momen­ tous weekend in third place at 8:36. With the points from the 3000, and the second place distance medley re­ lay team, ASU was in the lead after the Friday events, but the majority of the meet remained to be determined on Saturday. National Qualifier Rich Grant got the team's momentum flowing with his repeat as S.C. victor in the 351b. weight. ASU's sizable pole vault squad then proceeded to take the majority of points in the vault. Todd Poremba led the team with his 2nd place, 15T" vault. Just under him were the 14'01" vaults of Jeff Fitzgerald and Chad Smith in 4th and 5th place respec­ tively. The Apps' other national qualifier, 'Poose' Johnson furthered ASU's field dominance with an outstanding double; a victorious 51' triple jump, and a second place high jump of 6'8 3/4". Also in the high jump was Mike Kroeger, 6th with a jump of 6'6 3/4". While Clarence Sutton's 5th in the 55m hurdles was impressive, ASU really showed its dominance in the longer events. The 800m crown was handed to Jon Austin for the second year in a row. The S.C. record holder in the event led his opponents closely but confidently. His 1:54 put him just inches in front of sec­ ond, and two seconds in front of team­ mates Garson Hedrick in third and Bob Mahoney in fourth. The victory in the mile was handed to yet another ASU man. Chris Huffstickler returned to form after hav­ ing raced both the 3000 and the 1600 leg of the DMR by winning in 4:17. His scorching last 800m left the field battling only for second place. With ASU already in the lead, the penultimate event arrived, the 5000m. ETSU was still in possible contention for the win before the event, but by one mile into the race, all hopes had dissolved into tears. ASU paraded their distance corps around the track in a first through fourth formation. Tom Holland accrued his sec­ ond win of the weekend as Brian Miesch received his second bridesmaid award. John Crumbliss and Sloth Peoples fol­ lowed in third and fourth respectively. Holland's dominance was outstanding, as he surged away from the field winning by nearly 20 seconds in 14:40. Coach Fereshetian was ecstatic with his team's execution of their plan to win. "The team's work ethic showed through at nearly every point in the meet," Fereshetian said. "I"ve never been so proud of an ASU Track and Field team as I am of this year's team." The team was not only strong in terms of performances, but also in a spirited bond, "The team re­ ally came together, showing total support for everyone who wore an ASU jersey." Fereshetian said. With this weekend's title, the team has found the second jewel of the triple crown of Southern Confer­ ence running. With only one stone to get, it is assured that the ASU track team will devote the next two months of their athletic lives to that pursuit. " l LadyAppswin season finale Zg third David Willis Reporter Akram Barghothi Sports Editor Appalachian's Women's indoor track team entered last weekend's Southern Conference Meet with the highest of ex­ •31 pectations. After all they had won the last seven, they also the conference meet with an impressive 21-1 mark. The lady Apps learned a cruel lesson in Johnson City, Tenn. - no matter what you have done in the past, you will al­ ways be judged by your latest perfor­ mance. The lady Apps finished third. "Uncommon mistakes and unexpected performances from athletes from other schools sealed the fate for the Mountain­ eers," said ASU Women's indoor track coach John Weaver. Despite the disappointing finish for the team, two Mountaineers picked up South­ ern tides. Precious Quire won the triple jump with a jump of 41"6'. Quire's jump set a new conference mark and a Provi­ sional NCAA mark. Quire's jump ranks her sixth among Di­ vision I athletes, and at the moment she has qualified for the national Champion­ ship on March 10-11. Nikki Harris finished second in the triple jump with a mark of 39"6l/4'. see Women's Track page 9 Appalachian's women's basketball team got back on the winning track with a 61-57 victory over the University of Ten­ nessee at Chattanooga Saturday afternoon in the Varsity Gym. App faced a much tougher Mocca­ sin team than they did on Jan. 30 in Chat­ tanooga. ASU won that game by 21, rip­ ping the Mocs 79-58. Since then the Lady Apps have played to .500 with a record of 4-4. The Mountaineers shooting only 39 percent from the field, took a 28-26 halftime lead. App went 9 for 23 from the floor and 9-14 from the free throw line. The Mocs held tough on 52 percent shoot­ ing. The Lady Apps shooting woes con­ tinued in the second half as they shot only 38 percent from the floor, but fortunately for the Mountaineers, the Mocs only shot 31 percent in the final period. Andreia Hinton continued her stel­ lar season as she led the Apps with 14 points and 9 rebounds, in only 26 min­ utes as she fouled out late in the second half. No other Lady Mountaineer scored in double-digits. , The Lady Mountaineers finished the Mountaineer Andreia Hinton scored 14 points in Appalachian's 61-57 victory game shooting 20 of 52 from the floor and over UTC. (Photo by Rhett Butler) see Lady Apps page 9 Apps get revenge in Lexington Stephen Hensley Assistant Sports Editor As the 1995 regular season draws to a close, the Mountaineers have found themselves suffering the agony of defeat more often than they have tasted sweet victory. With the finaJ road game Satur­ day at VMI, Coach Tom Apke had to be wishing for the team's luck to turn around before the Southern Conference tourna­ ment. Wish granted, Apps won 92-89. The three point victory avenges the 85-89 loss the Mountaineers suffered at the hands of the Keydets in Varsity Gym on Jan. 28. Furthermore, the win places the Apps at 7-18 overall and 4-9. The victory may not mean a whole lot as far as Southern Conference standings, but it may boost the confidence of the team going into the post season. The Apps got off to a strong start and took a 39-39 lead into intermisssion. Tak­ ing an advantage to the locker room is important to the Apps, having won only four of the 15 games in which they have trailed at the break. Appalachian built their slim half time advantage with good shooting. The Mountaineers shot over 55 percent for the game. The Apps were accurate from be­ hind the arc as well, hitting 43 percent of their treys. The Keydets struggled from the field, shooting under 43 percent including a meager 5-24 from long range. Appalachian did more than shodt well, though. The Apps played unselfish ball, racking up 21 assists, five apiece by Jun­ ior Braswell and Will Cook. Appalachian also pulled down 36 boards including a season high l9"6y*|Chad McClendon. Speaking of McClendon, the senior put it all on the line in his last road game scoring 31 points and hitting 15 of 16 At­ tempts from the free throw line. Will Cdok showed signs of his old self Saturday, scor­ ing 19 points off of 7-13 shooting includ­ ing 4-6 from three point land. Mr. Livingston I presume? You bet. The freshman didn't play like one, scor­ ing 11 points, grabbing three boards, and see Revenge page 9 Jeremey Blocker draws a foul in ASU's 92-89 victory at VMI.

I am going again the current, so I slip between the curtafc on the right where a small four-on-fo half court game is being played. Tv other would-be players wait under tl basket, so I saunter on over to them see if I can "pick up" with them. "Ya'll got next?" I inquire. "Yeah," one of them says. "Ya need one?" I ask, confident "Sure," he says diplomatically b still sizing me up, wondering if he h made the right decision. And then the wait begins. "What's the count?" my new tear mate yells to the players after a basket made. "10 to 6," one of them answer checking the ball back to the team on o fense. "What are ya playin' to?" he ir quires again. "15," the same guy replies. "Straight or by two?" My teammate is beginning to anno; even me.

That's the way it is- there's smal guys, medium-sized guys, and big guys Me, I'm a small guy. Actually, I'm betweei a small and medium, which is better thai just being small.

A medium-sized guy checks the ball in to me, I look around to make sure everyone's covered, then say the magie words: "Ball's in." , And so it begins. It is a hard-fou? game. Neither side gets down by ru°^ than two points. The skinny guy on ° f team runs rampant, scoring most ot points. Like the game before, we are] ing to 15.

In summing-up his team perfor­ mance, Weaver said, 'You know how these thing go. We won seven in a row and this time everything that could go wrong did." "We made a lot of mistakes and ETSU took advantage of them," said Weaver. LadyApps continued from page 8 18 of 29 from the charity stripe, and a meager 3-9 from beyond the arc. "We were very pleased with the win. UTC was the hottest team in the conference and we felt that the win helped to get us back on track," said head women's basket­ ball coach Linda. Robinson. "We played with a lot of poise and made the big basket when it was needed." Amber Test led the way for the Moccasins scoring 20 points and grabbing 8 boards.

The Mountaineers could ei­ ther play Marshall or UTC. ASU swept the Moccasins and split the regular season matchups against the Thundering Herd.

The first game of the doubleheader on Saturday featured ASU's Garth Armstrong throwing against Bulldog Britt Reames. Appalachian jumped out to an early lead, scoring a run in the first, but the Bulldogs came back in the third, knotting the score at one apiece. The game then turned into a pitching dual as both teams went scoreless for six innings, but ASU broke the monotony in the top of the ninth, scoring a single run and holding on for the win. Starting pitcher Garth Armstrong went 7 and 2/3 innings for the Apps, giving up one run on two hits and striking out seven. Dan Stutzman came on in relief, pitching 2 and 1/3 innings and picked up the win. App's DH Shane Owenby went two for four with a double and a triple, scoring one run. In the second game, ASU's Ja­ son Crews and Bulldog pitcher Brian Callahan both went the dis­ tance in another close battle. The Bulldogs jumped out to an early two-to-one lead, but the Apps tied the score at two, scor­ ing a run in the fourth. The Cita­ del pitcher Callahan, then buckled down and shut out the Mountain­ eers for the remainder of the game. The Citadel scored the winning run in the bottom of the seventh, ending the split of the double-dip­ per. On Sunday afternoon, the two teams met again, this time in a high scoring affair that saw each team go four pitchers deep into the bullpen. The Mountaineers jumped out to the early lead as Chris . : , \ - - , Rodriquez knocked in two runs in the second inning and Dave Young picked up an RBI in the third. The Bulldogs came back in the fourth and tied the score at three apiece when Dale Sistare left the park on a solo homer and Terrence Smalls singled in a run. App jumped out again, scor­ ing three more runs in the next two innings, but the Citadel came back once again, scoring three runs in the seventh on a Ken Lott single that scored two and another Smalls RBI. The Apps were once again held scoreless for the final three innings and the Bulldogs came up with a bottom of the ninth run, when ASU catcher Scott Garrett overthrew first base on a sacrifice bunt. Phil Falco was charged with his first loss of the young season and Donald Morillo picked up his second win for the Bulldogs. Joe Francisco, Brent Payton, and Dave Young all pitched in two hits for the Mountaineers. Payton left the park for the first time this season. Appalachian, 1-4 overall and 1-2 in the conference, will travel to Winston-Salem on Wednesday to take on Wake Forest. Game time is set for 2:30 p.m. �Page 10 The Appalachian, Tuesday 28 Feb 'Z±}% Quinn Center Appalachian News Facility Hours 7 am - midnight 7 am - 8 pm 10 am - 7 pm 2 pm- 10 pm Monday - Thursday Friday Saturday Sunday Official University News And Announcements Weight Room Hours The same hours as the facility, except from 9 am - noon Monday through Frjdj Lap Swim Outstanding Faculty Award Nominations^ Office of Women's Concerns The College of Fine and Applied Arts is accepting nominations for its annual Outstanding Faculty Award.

Under the proposal, all stu­ dents would face a $50 increase in gen­ eral fees. Students who live on-campus will face an additional $120. The proposal includes a $15 increase in the general athletic fee. This increase, which was approved by the Student Gov­ ernment Association last year, will go partly to offset the $700,000 usually con­ tributed to the athletic fund by Academic Affairs, which they will be unable to con­ tribute this year. This additional funding will also be used to replace the astroturf, the track and to repair the visitor's section at Kidd Brewer Stadium. Miranda Blanton, daughter of Mr. Mrs. Joseph K. Blanton of Monroe, received the 1995 Mary Morrowias idna Richards Scholarship from the iorth Carolina Association of Educa-1 :0rs. Blanton, a junior elementary edu­ cation major at Appalachian State Uni­ versity, is one of four students receiv­ ing the $1,000 scholarship. The award recognizes the] recipient's promise as a teacher and NCAE's commitment to encourage the best and brightest students to enter the teaching profession. Blanton is a member of the NCAEI student chapter, Alpha Chi honorary society, Gamma Beta Phi honor and ser­ vice organization, and Kappa Delta Pi, the education honor and service frater- 1995-96 Proposed Fee Increases According to Dr. Gregory Blimling, vice chancellor of student development, unless the seating is repaired, the entire visitor's section will have to be condemned due to its unsafe condition. The student activity fee for the stu­ dent union will see a proposed $10 in­ crease. This will pick up the cost of addi­ tional energy use as well as the cost of hiring additional staff for the student union, which will nearly double in size upon the completion of current construc­ tion. The general fee for education and technology will be increased by $2. This fee, first introduced as a requirement by the UBC system in 1993-94, is used to upgrade computers and technology around campus. Prior to this fee, students had to pay individual lab fees for classes which used computers or other laboratory equipment.

"I asked her because she is a social work major andhas such good leadership qualities, and because she cares about people. She will be aneffective vice presi­ dent," Weaver said. Martin explained why she agreed to be on the ticket. "Separately we couldn't win, but together we make a wonderful team," she said. "We work well together."

Despite the measure of prevention, some students have expressed concern they feel their rights have been violated. "I do not own a car, and my bike is my only transportation. I cannot believe the town is doing this.," said ASU senior Scott Muller, "I feel this is threatening to us as people with rights, and I, for one, cannot afford to be fined for not having a helmet," "If they are going to do this, they should give us helmets to wear," he said.

The North Carolina State Legislature has proposed a 3.1percent increase in tuition I for in-state stu- I dents. They want to eliminate subsi- I dizing out-of-state students altogether. 28 students will travel to Raleigh Wednes­ day, March 1, according to Pas­ chal. He is also asking senators to help start a letter-writing cam­ paign. "We want to be proactive to this issue, not reactive," Paschal said. If anyone would like to get the addresses to their represen­ tatives, they are available in the SGA office, Paschal said. SGA recruits volunteers JoBeth Banks, Student Gov­ ernment Association chair of public affairs, spoke to SGA Senate about the upcoming vol­ unteer project "Into the Streets." She explained that "Into the Streets" is a project in which SGA helps bring clubs on cam­ pus and volunteer organiza­ tions in Boone together to help accomplish the goals set by these off-campus organizations. 1"We will be Isetting up a booth for I people not involved in Iany club who want to Ihelp," Banks said. Assistant Director of Hous­ ing Patrick Tutde spoke to SGA about the renovations being made to Newland Hall. Newland Hall is the build­ ing beside the Duck Pond and extending into Stadium parking lot. He said the building will have 134 spaces and the first floor of the extension finished by the beginning of next aca­ demic year. According to Tuttle, the rest of the extension, 168 spaces, will be ready later in the fall.

Due to student and stateattention, the legislature re- -1 ministrators are moved the SAC from the list of state university building projects. Appalachian prompdy replaced it with the soon-to-be-built Math/ Science building and the new ad­ ministration building. Both have received funding. So now enters the ACC. The J if Does this make the ACC all fine and dandy? Ponder this: Gov. Jim Hunt recendy came to Boone and promised to fight for funding for this new building with the tax­ payers' dollars. On Feb. 13, Gov. Hunt announced a proposed $200 million in state cuts. •' Included in the plan is a tuition hike of three percent in the university sys­ tem, both in and out-of-state stu­ dents. He also in­ cluded a $15 million cut in the university system. On top of this he still plans to send $50 million to the Board of Governors to be used for uni­ versity building projects. This is where the $20 mil­ lion for the ACC is supposed to come from. The Board of Gover­ nors will have the ultimate deci­ sion of where the money goes. The message sent is that Gov. Hunt can raise tuition, cut $15 mil­ lion from the university system, and then send $20 million up the mountain to support Appalachian athletics and graduation ceremo­ nies. We, as a university must truly "The Appalachian Convocation Center brings up memories of the short-lived Student Activities Center. " building's current plans reveal a structure similar to the SAC. This new building has answered three of the main problems students had with the SAC. 1) It will be built in the football parking lot instead of the Environmental Studies area above the practice field. 2) It will also house the leisure studies de­ partment rather than just a basket­ ball dome. 3) No student fees will be used to fund the building. justify this train of thought. Can we, with piece of mind, take $20 million tax dollars while the en­ tire system suffers a $15 million cut? Is a 10,000 seat convocation center really needed at this univer­ sity? Up until last year, convocation was held within each field of study. It was more personal andit did not take all day. Last year it was held in the football stadium and every­ one got wet. So the idea is that we "™'—~~ spend $30 million so that the chance of getting wet (very likely in Boone) will not happen at graduation. Does the bas­ ketball team need room for 10,000 people to come see them play? Appar­ ently not. They have a hard time as it is filling the current gym. What about the band PHISH, and how they sold out Varsity Gym last fall? 10,000 possible ticket buyers will surely make it more profitable for them to come back. This is surely a good reason to spend $30 million. The state leg­ islature, the Board of Governors, Appalachian administrators, and Appalachian students must make sure we are not wasting the taxpayer's dollar. One of the most pressing problems for students and citizens alike in Boone is the traffic and parking problem. Tearing apart the largest university lot adjacent to campus will not help. So now a committee is being formed to pro­ duce a solution. A parking deck is most likely to be the answer as "Does the basketball team need room for 10,000 people to come see them play? Apparently not." long as flat land and funds can be found. Where will the millions of dollars needed to build a parking deck come from?

This is college, meaning that everyone is here to either party, eventually graduate, or both. Graduation is the fun part, when you begin the search for your ultimate dream job, unless you plan to work the drive-thru at McDonald's or something. Nevertheless, if you're like me, sometimes you've got to pick up odd jobs along the way to keep you going. You know- pay for college, pay rent, pay Papa John... so, in case you're checking out the ads, here's a guide to the best and the worst. "GOOD"JOBS yourself (unless your store is in a bad neighborhood, and then you might end up a statistic). Anyway, there's usually lots of time to goof off, do homework, etc. Most stores have radios and some even have TVs, so with easy snack access, you've got all the comforts of home. Bryson Betts 'BAD"JOBS -Anv iob paving commission Unless you are very outgoing and have a knack for selling people stuff they don't want, don't try it. You won't have a pretty paycheck. -Jobs with dress codes Lots of businesses do judge you by the way you look and not how good you are at what you do. So tie-dye hair, long hair, no hair, nose rings and grunge gear won't get you a job at the Gap. You might have to settle for Rock'n Roll Emporium. As for uniforms, so much for being a non-conformist. Employ­ ers like to make you wear ugly uniforms for a reason- if you look dumb, people will think you are dumb, and no one will stick around and talk to you. There are many reasons a law such as this is unnecessary and unwanted. Most of these arguments revolve around indi­ vidual rights. No one would disagree that it is a bad idea for people to be safe, or to eliminate as many risks to personal health as pos­ sible, however, when a law such as this is passed it imposes upon individual rights. -Waittessing pr waitering Regardless of whether you wear a helmet Face it.

If this is the case, I think it ironic that the fol­ lowing statement of little facts pro­ fessed that they were not preju­ diced and did not discriminate anybody based on race or creed. What about sexual orientation? Oh, I'm sorry, that was covered in number four. Of course, they could say that they are not anti-gay. If this is so, why the statement at all? They might as well have said that all of their members have 10 fingers and 10 toes. Pretty redundant, huh?

Iwas in the Los Angeles area the night of June 12, near the Brentwood mansion. No, I did not kill Nicole or Ronald, but I suspect I could have caused some problems for the L.A. police department. You see, I planned to take the week to tour the homes of the stars. I rented a white Ford Bronco from Hertz and was chased by a man hurdling airport wait­ ing-area chairs.

Carol Pollet, Stylist Matrix �I he Appalachian, Thursday 23 Feb Page 8 lfUary Cool Hand Paul Is no fool QJSteven Mackay Reporter Paul Newman brought us the immortal classics "Cool Hand Luke" and "Butch Cassidy and the Sundance Kid." Now he returns in a new film that will loom large as well. "Nobody's Fool" (Rated "R") has Newman written all over it: tough, rugged, funny, sad and sometimes just plain weird. Newman plays Donald "Sully" Sullivan, a construction worker who has not seen a trace of good luck in his 60 long years of life. His knee is falling victim to arthri­ tis (although he insists it's an onthe-job war wound), he's out of money, he can't land a job, his grown son (Dylan Walsh) hates him, and his much-needed lawyer couldn't spell "O.J." if his life de­ pended on it. Sully's life is cold and miserable, just like the New York town he lives in. However, there are a few bright spots in his dire existence. There's Miss Beryl (Jessica Tandy), Sully's landlord, former grade school teacher and best friend. He's also in love with the wife (Melanie Griffith) of his boss, Carl (Bruce Willis), a contender for jerk of the year. Finally and most importantly, is the introduction of his grandson, a shy but bright boy. He inspires Sully to actually go out and live. "Nobody's Fool" is a quiet, slow, wonderful movie that actu­ ally has real human characters in it. Nothing exciting ever happens; there are no terrorists or explo­ sions, just like real life. This is just a simple story of a normal Ameri­ can guy. How many movies have you seen where you actually care about the people on the screen? Not many. This is one of the few touching, endearing and down­ right good dramas that Hollywood sprinkles on us every once in a while. The best scenes in the movie are shared by Newman and Tandy, continued from page 6 where they joke about death and old age. Ironically, this is Jessica Tandy's final performance, and it is every bit as good as her past showings. Bruce Willis is also spectacular in his small, un-billed role. He manages to put away the giant ego that has wrecked his ca­ reer ("Color of Night" and the up­ coming "Die Hard 3"), and actu­ ally acts. With this movie and "Pulp Fiction," Willis may finally be back on track. Newman is his normal, spec­ tacular self. He proves once again that he is one of America's best actors. Who else at age 70 has the power and talent of Newman? Not many. "Nobody's Fool" captured two Oscar nominations for Newman (best actor) and best adapted screenplay for Robert Benton, who also directed. I'm quite certain both gentlemen will be happy when the awards are handed out in March. Grade: **** Interested in writing for The Appalachian?

"Even if they beat us, they'll be sore the next day. We're not a dirty team, we just play hard." Senior Chris Cuddy agreed, and he said the team's style of play is a good rea­ son for people to come to games. "It's an exciting sport to watch because the game doesn't stop," Cuddy said. "It keeps roll­ ing, so there's always something happen­ ing. The whole game is a fight for posses­ sion of the ball.

Never have those words been sweeter than when read by the men's bas­ ketball team Monday night after their sec­ ond straight loss in the Volunteer state. After falling to East Tennessee Saturday night, the Apps moved on to face the Ten­ nessee-Chattanooga Moccasins. It was the first meeting of the two teams this season due to the new divisional format .in the Southern Conference. After the 54-68 loss, the Mountaineers might hope it's the last. The Mocs, now 15-9 overall and 102 in the conference, came out strong in the first half, connecting on 50 percent of their shots, including 4-9 from behind the arc. Appalachian continued to struggle from the perimeter, hitting only one of six attempts before intermission. The Mocs also got to the free throw line 11 times in the first half compared to only two attempts for the Apps. These factors began to add up until the Moun­ taineers found themselves staring down the barrel of 40-28 halftime deficit. "I thought we did some good things," said Coach Tom Apke on his team's per­ formance. "We found ourselves coming from behind most of the game and may have just run out of gas." At the same time the needle was read­ ing empty for the Apps, UTC was still in high gear. The Mocs shot 42 percent from the field in the second period, a drop off of their first half performance, but good enough to fend off the Mountaineers and their 28 percent second half shooting per­ centage. The Apps also had their run-in with the officials, picking up three technical fouls as a team. This contributed to UTC's tremendous free throw advantage. The Mocs got to the stripe 26 times, hitting 17. Conversely, the Apps only got to the line 10 times. Roger Smith did a lot of the damage for the Mocs, scoring18 points to go along with his 11 rebounds. Brandon Born also hurt the Apps with his 15 points and five boards. As for the Mountaineers, it was an­ other ho-hum performance by Chad McClendon. Yeah, right The Madisonville, Tenn. native had game highs in points with 25 and rebounds with 18.

"The school gives us nothing compared with what we use," said Cuddy. The Club Sports Council gets a set amount of money from the school, and the Council members decide how to divide it. "If we could get more money for the Council, then we could give more to each sport," Cuddy said. "A lot of the varsity sports get all kinds of money that they can't even be­ gin to spend.

GSU's Eagles visit Varsity Gym for the last game of the year on Feb. 27, hoping to avenge a loss to ASU in Statesboro last month. ASU center Andreia Hinton, after scoring a season-high 28 points in a Saturday loss to East Tennessee State, managed nine against Marshall (5-7 Southern Conference, 13-11). Fourteen re­ bounds from Hinton on Monday were another team best for the year, but the 6-1 sophomore did not visit the free throw line, where she has averaged six attempts per game in conference play. ASU, trailing 32-26 at the half, could not use the familiar three-point shot to climb back into the game. The Mountaineers at­ tempted a healthy 18 treys, con­ verting on three. The accurate jumper of senior Beth Kilby, which has faded in recent games, still was good for two long-range bombs which gave her six of her team- continued from page 10 leading 12 points. Starting in lieu of benched sophomore Maaret Artosalo, Mel­ issa Davis has turned in solid per­ formances. Only Hinton is averag­ ing more points when playing con­ ference foes, and Davis' 45 percent three-point shooting in the last month is tops on the team. The Florida sophomore had 11 points and three steals, joining Kilby and Merideth Thompson in double fig­ ures. The Herd's Keri Simmons had six blocks, seven points, and eight rebounds in 27 minutes. Simmons and Marshall's four other starters scored 51of the Thundering Herd's 71 points. Versatile forward Maaret Artosalo, who missed games against Radford, ETSU, and Marshall because of a week-long suspension for violating team policy, will return Saturday for a home game versus TennesseeChattanooga.

Burleson served as a SGA Senator and member of the rules committee in 1993. Burleson named Billy Bunting, also a former senator and member of the rules committee, as his vice presidential running mate. Burleson and Bunting are the second team to announce their candidacy. The other candidates are Ray Paschal and Todd Finch, who announced their candidacy last week. "Billy was my first choice (for vice president)," said Burleson. "I worked with him in SGA and saw his personal motiva­ tion. He was also highly involved in high school." Burleson and Bunting are concerned with making SGA offi­ cials and the administration more accessible to students. Other issues they are concerned with in­ clude the infirmary, parking, the library and the convoca­ tion center. "Our main purpose for running is for the stu­ dents," said Burleson. "Our motto is - willing to learn, ea­ ger to listen and ready to serve." Burleson plans to graduate in May of 1996 with a major in business manage­ ment and a minor in interna­ tional management. In 1992, he served as the president of the student body of Mayland Community College in Spruce Pine, N.C. Bunting plans to graduate in May 1997 with a major in broadcasting and a minor in business. He is cur­ rently a resident assistant in Coltrane. "Being an RA allows me to interact personally with students and hear their con­ cerns," said Bunting.

Accuracy and PutohcService »*<* 1936 ACC planners view Arkansas facility Allison Pennell Reporter Several members of the Appala­ chian Convocation Center committee learned first-hand about the operations required in a multi-purpose arena when they traveled to Arkansas State Univer­ sity this past weekend to view its convo­ cation center. " Director of Conferences and In­ stitutes Tony Gray, Athletic Director Roachel Laney, Student Government As­ sociation President J.D. Adams and Vice President Jane Mclntyre and Vice Chan­ cellor for Business Affairs Jane Helm went on the trip. Laney said they went to see the Arkansas convocation center to get ideas and to see it in operation. While there, the committee members saw a men and women's basketball game. This allowed them to see the ticket and concession ar­ eas in operation. Laney said they were also able to see how the arena was set up before the games. "We got to see the in-house op­ erations," he said. "It gave us hands-on experience and we hope to apply it some­ time." Mclntyre said the university talked to them about the arena for about two hours and gave a tour of every room. "The talk gave some very valu­ 262-6233 Matures & torials 262-3104 awn McGuire, 262-6149 "tor-in-Chief e able information," said Gray. 'They spoke about the negative aspects of the center so that we wouldn't make the same mis­ takes." Mclntyre said one of Arkansas State's mistakes was they had not built a concourse around the concessions for bet­ ter access, which Appalachian's plans do include. "The thing that excited me the most about their convocation center was it could be used for so many things," Mclntyre said. She said they showed how it could be used for graduation, bas­ ketball games, and a boat exhibition in a period of just four days. Mclntyre said everybody at Ar­ kansas State University had gained from the center. The university's student body president said the students enjoyed get­ ting a lot of use out of it. Gray said the part of the building that most impressed him was the flexibil­ ity the seating provides with retractable chairback seats. The Arkansas State convocation center does compare to the proposed plan that Appalachian has, Mclntyre said. "It is very close to what we're looking for," Gray said. "The Arkansas convocation center is a model in diver­ sity." Representatives of Hakan-Corley and Associates also traveled to Arkansas.

Derrick said only one case of the bacterial strain has been reported on Appalachian's campus this year a 20- year-old male living in Coltrane Residence Hall.

The N.C. Department of Environment, Health and Natu­ ral Resources reported in Wake County, on Feb. 14, a Sanderson High School student died of the illness, diagnosed the day before. She dated an acquaintance of the meningitis patient at Lees-McRae. In South Carolina, Feb. 6, doc­ tors diagnosed a high school stu­ dent with the illness as well. She also dates a friend of the infected student at Lees-McRae. As a precautionary measure, three additional Lees-McRae stu­ dents have been hospitalized in Banner Elk for related symptoms. Derrick said the symptoms of meningitis are very similar to those of influenza. Fever, general mal­ aise and headaches are common symptoms. Derrick said, however, the flu usually involves upper res­ piratory symptoms as opposed to the nausea symptomatic of men­ ingitis. Meningitis patients may Pa£ F F Rc Fe: on; en thi continued from page 7 also develop a flat, red rash on the arms and legs which may then develop into small red dots. Derrick also said meningitis symptoms progress more rapidly. "In 24 hours, it's life or death." Treatment for meningitis in­ cludes a spinal tap and the imple­ mentation of antimicrobal therapy. Appalachian Health Services took several hundred calls Wednesday between 6 and 11 p.m. with concerns about the "out­ break" after an article appeared that day in the Watauga Democrat. "Parents had called their kids, too, to tell them they had heard about the 'outbreak"," Derrick said. One nurse handled telephone calls Thursday while three screened patients reporting men­ ingitis symptoms. As a result, the infirmary has been booked, since concerns about the illness have spread as fast as the real outbreak of the flu. Boone Tire Center, Inc. m< m< "More than Just a Tire Store' lin •B.F.

Unfortunately, at the time, South Carolina as well as Missis­ sippi still maintained segregated university systems. Gantt, at the top of his architecture class, was routinely rejected for admission after the university discovered he was black. Clemson based these rejections on what Gantt termed "flimsy reasons." Gantt, feeling the university was overtly discriminating against him, filed a lawsuit against the state of South Carolina in 1962. According to Gantt, the district court trial was a "charade," with the state spending over $75,000 to keep Gantt out of Clemson. "What truly angered me," said Gantt, "was that they were trying to keep me out with my father's tax dollars."

However, the Fourth Circuit Court of Appeals overturned the deci­ sion, paving the way for Gantt to enter Clemson in January 1963. The state of South Carolina stated it would tolerate no such trouble upon Gantt's entrance to Clemson, referring to the violent outbreaks in Mississippi during James Meredith's entrance as the first black to attend an all-white school in that state. Despite calls by some to ostra­ cize Gantt at Clemson, he soon won over the friendship of many students. Gantt would also meet his future wife while attending classes at Clemson.

Many parents, concerned that not enough is known about the disease and all the potential ways it can be spread, have begun to ask how certain a public health care system should be before it can assure them there's nothing to worry about. Unlike cancer or even other inheritable diseases such as hemophilia, HIV is associated with taboo sexual and drug-related behaviors. Because AIDS has a unique so­ cial stigma, parents whose children contract the disease fear their child will be ostracized and isolated from soci­ ety. Even worse, other parents fear that any contact by their children with HIV-positive children will result in transmission of the deadly disease. These fears are real­ istic up to a point.

Host East Tennessee State University snatched a chance to leapfrog into the top position, beating Appalachian 93-86. The Bucs (9-3 SC, 16-6) had let an opportunity to catch ASU in the conference standings slip through their fingers last week when the Apps fell to Furman, 83-68. Tennessee-Chattanooga thwarted those plans, upsetting ETSU in an 82-59 shocker. Saturday's loss pushes ASU down to 8-3 in the con­ ference, and out of first place for the first time in nearly a month. East Tennessee State chiseled a lead in the opening half, riding a 41-33 halftime advantage. Sixty percent shooting from the field in the first 20 minutes helped the Bucs' cause, and ETSU's pace was set by Sharon Jones, who scored 25 points. Sophomore center Andreia Hinton tore apart ETSU's defense, with a team- and season-high 28 points in 22 minutes. Hinton's 14 field goals on 27 attempts were also season records for the Apps. The week-long suspension of forward Maaret Artosalo has meant extended playing time for other team members, and Melissa Davis has come up strong as of late, averaging better than 15 points a game over ASU's last three. Before fouling out at the close of Saturday's game, Davis put down 18 and was 6 for 7 from the field. Guard Shannon Spencer had eight assists and seven steals as she played a marathon 38 minutes. Four players reached double figures in scoring for the Buccaneers, including the nation's number seven scorer DeShawne Blocker, whose 15 were far below her average. Blocker, who led Division I with 17.3 rebounds per game in 1993-94, compensated with 10 boards. Appalachian's game against the Lady Highlanders of Radford University on Wednesday, Feb.15, was a match­ up between teams with opposite outlooks on the dwin­ dling season. The Mountaineers dropped two of three games on their most recent road trip, and after streaking 'to a January record of 8-1, ASU was 2-2 during February coming into the contest against Radford. see Lady Assistant Sports Editor David Willis Reporter The great American poet Willie Nelson once crooned that he couldn't wait to get on the road again, but he never had to play against East Tennessee State. The Bucs are always tough, but even more so when in the confines of their "minidome." Appalachian, coming off of two consecutive heartbreaking losses, hoped to spring back against an East Tennessee squad that is not as strong as in years past. However, good perimeter shooting by the Bucs spelled trouble for the young Moun­ taineers as they fell, 74-83. The Apps got out to a decent start, connecting on14 of their 31 first half shots, including four of nine from behind the three point arc. The Mountaineers also made it to the free throw line six times before the break, connecting on five. The Bucs, who hit only 44.4 percent of their first half shots, found themselves knotted with Appalachian at 37 apiece, as both team's retreated to the locker rooms. At the break, Coach Alan LeForce of ETSU rallied his troops, and the Bucs re­ sponded by playing much better ball in In Appalachian State's final regular season wrestling meet of the year, Virginia Military Institute defeated the Mountain­ eers 23-13 in a battle of Southern Con­ ference unbeatens, and gained important momentum heading into the Southern Conference Tournament. The Mountaineers dropped a heartbreaker to VMI, giving the grapplers their first Southern Conference loss of the year. The loss also ended the App's six-meet unbeaten streak. In the first match at 118 lbs, ASU se­ nior Mike Orris continued his season-long dominance by defeating Marcus Sanchez 12-0. Orris ended the regular season with a record of 19-4. In the 126 lb weight class, VMI's Aaron Mickiewicz defeated ASU's Damon Baldwin 4-2 in a very close match. Baldwin finished his season with a 19-7 see Waltz page 7 mark. • Vinny Zullo put ASU back on top with a 5-2 victory over VMI's Adam Mickiewicz, but the Keydets proved to be too strong, winning five of the next six Akram Barghothi matches.

A slow start to the sea­ son put the Highlanders at 2-9, but Coach Lumbomyr Lichonczak's team had won seven of nine games before Wednesday. For Appala­ chian, the challenge of beating a team on the move was inspiring, and the Mountaineers derailed Radford, 96-68. AS LPs height advantage as­ serted itself early, as the home team eased out to an 8-2 lead with three minutes gone in the game. Both teams began the night sput­ tering offensively. Radford (9-12) hung close for a while, relying on gritty defense and hustle. Radford's only factor in the paint, 6-2 junior Dede Logemann, collected her third foul halfway through the first half, and this was more than ASU needed to mold a 51-34 halftime lead. PROBLEMS?

Finally in the heavyweight di­ vision, App Duke Howell defeated VMI's David Hall 12-4, to score ASLPs final points. Howell finished the regular season with a record of 22-8. Also for the Apps, Shomari Rozier ended an injury-filled sea­ son with a record of 12-4. "We wrestled well, and they wrestled well. VMI is a very tough place to wrestle, they have a small gym and they fill it with cadets," said ASU's wrestling coach Paul Mance. "It (the loss) may have been good for us, the guys know where they stand and that they will have to wrestle well to win the tournament." The loss for the Apps came at a very bad time as the Southern Conference Tournament is in two weeks.

Ray Paschal, Student Government Association director of state affairs, an­ nounced his candidacy for SGA President at Tuesday night's SGA meeting. "I've seen how things have gone and I understand how the organization works," Paschal said. "More importantly, I can see how it can be improved." Paschal also told senate that offcampus senator Todd Finch will be his vice presidential running mate. "I was looking for the person I thought had good leadership abilities," Paschal said, "He has a lot of good ideas. He is a good communicator and a real smart guy." "I am honored and excited with another chance to further service the stu­ dents of Appalachian," Finch said. Finch spoke to the SGA Senate about Paschal's accomplishments. "I, like many other students, have seen Ray's many accomplishments, such as the tu­ ition installment plan, the semesterly voter registration drive, and his success in lob­ bying state legislature." 'These accomplishments will in­ sure that Ray will serve as one of the most outstanding presidents ever," Finch said.

Faculty Senate proposes 'term limits' Allison Penned Reporter The Faculty Senate will vote on setting new terms for department chair­ persons in March.

On Nov. 16, a group of approxi­ mately 15 faculty members and adminis­ trators and 10 students surveyed both east and west sides of campus for possible safety improvements. Evan Rowe of the Safety and Workers Compensation Office was also asked to participate. "As the University Safety Officer, I am concerned with safety in the work­ place, and in this case, the workplace ba­ sically includes the whole campus," said Rowe. Most of the suggestions made by the group related to improved lighting as well as improvements in cutting back over­ grown shrubs and bushes. Dr. Clyde Robbins, associate vice chancellor of physical operations, said most of these lighting and landscaping concerns were taken care of almost im­ mediately. Electricians replaced burned-out or damaged bulbs. In addition, ground crews cut back overgrown bushes and shrubs deemed to be a safety hazard. "As a result (of the walk) we have instituted a regular periodic maintenance schedule, which we follow to ensure the replacement of lights as well as landscap­ ing maintenance," said Robbins. The group also suggested addi­ tional emergency blue lights around cam­ pus.

If the chair does not wish to remain in office, no position is available, and no internal replace­ ment can be found, the depart­ ment as a whole and the dean will have an expressed voice about which of the candidates to select as chair. This policy will not pre­ vent the chair from being removed before the five-year term, or any other term, has expired, in accor­ dance with established procedure. The one-year evaluation process will still be in effect. Aside from the terms and limits expressed in this policy, chairs are subject to all other poli­ cies regarding retention and dis­ missal of faculty members. Once the Senate has ap­ proved this policy and it has been a accepted by the Provost and the Chancellor, all chairs now in of­ fice for four or more years will begin a three-year term. All chairs who have been in office less than four years will begin a five-year Rc Fei on en thi term. All future chairs will be in­ formed of this policy and begin a five-year term when they begin their serve at Appalachian as chairs. This same policy is in practice at the University of North Carolina-Asheville, UNC-Chapel Hill, UNC-Greensboro, UNCWilmington, East Carolina Univer­ sity, North Carolina State Univer­ sity and Pembroke State University. Jesse Taylor, assistant professor of philosophy and reli­ gion, felt that diversity should not be an argument to change chairs. "It is about leadership and au­ tonomy," Taylor said. Health Leisure and Exer­ cise Studies Professor Judy Carlson said she favors the new policy also. "This is a dramatic change," Carlson said.

Some people may argue that this depends on several things, but what it boils down to is personal standards. Mine tell me that it is not acceptable to cheat. I have to be honest and admit that I'm guilty of having done it myself. But my days of peeking at other people's math quizzes ended as soon as high school did; something about the atmosphere at college has changed the way I think about this issue. Call me a hypocrite, but I just don't see college as an extension of high school. Things are very different here. Nothing (except maybe the cafeteria) operates on the same level. College creates an academic community; here we live and breathe the things we study. Those of us who take our studies seriously also have respect for this university. Many people don't know this, but there are some very serious aspects of college life that need more attention. For example, a syllabus is virtually a legal contract between students and profes­ sors. Similarly, we have the University Code of Academic Integrity that we are ex­ pected to follow. I will venture to say that most students break the rules set up by this code- and this is pretty easy to do if you're not informed as to what they are. For example, if you haven't done one of these things yourself, you probably know someone who has: used a test from a previous semester for a class you have now, copying text from a source you don't document, turning in a paper to two different professors, and regular 'ol cheating. I have only encountered one professor who really enforces this code. He was only concerned with us not plagiarizing- something most of us learned not to do in high school. It has always seemed to me that professors simply expect students to know better than to cheat. I've been in many tests in which the professor has left the room until the class was over. In high school this wasn't a possibility. Anyway, when you break the code, one of the two things can happen. First, you can go through a settlement process. This is usually for a first-time offense. During this process the student meets with the professor. The two must agree on a penalty and sign a form along with an advisor who talks with the student later. Second, which is usually reserved for serious offenses or those in which the stu­ dent and professor can't agree on either guilt or punishment, the student goes before Still perplexed about parking?

Penalties decided here can include a grade of "F," sus­ pension, or expulsion. According to Barbara Daye, who is on the faculty senate committee which is cur­ rently studying the integrity code processes, there may be 12-15 cases of academic integrity reported in a typical semester. This number is just typical of reported cases and doesn't account for the numerous times dishonesty occurs without someone get­ ting caught. The bottom line here is that academic dishonesty is harmful to the integrity of our university. When you cheat you show disrespect for the community here, not to men­ tion for your professor and your peers. I agree with the statement about this which appears on page 53 of the student handbook along with the abridged version of the code: "Without maintenance of high standards of honesty, members of the instruc­ tional staff are defrauded, students are treated unfairly and society itself is poorly served." Mike Cleaves Assistant Editorials Editor (-Ieafr5 Students shouldn't be left out in t h e cold Bryson Betts Columnist A feature in last week's The Appala­ chian described the landscape as a "win­ ter wonderland." It appeared to me as another land far, far away; the ice planet Hoth, and I was poor Luke Skywalker searching for direction and meaning amongst this madness. In other words, the conditions that existed early last week should have been a premise to cancel classes. It seems that the class cancellation cri­ teria are a subject of debate each year with students furious at the administration that they have to attend classes and be subject to blizzard conditions. All of us received notices early in the year saying that the administration "re­ serves the right" to cease university ac­ tivities as they see fit, although no specif­ ics were given on what would have to hap­ pen to make them see it worthy of letting us stay home. A fear they have is that on weekdays that Boone has snow, students, and possi­ bly staff, will flock to the ski slopes for fun. However, one cannot ski, snowboard, or sled in a blizzard without a lot of diffi­ culty. That is precisely what happened earlier last week. The weather station, which is oper­ ated by the Geography Department, re­ ported about five inches of snow on Sat­ urday, adding to the remnants from the week before. It never got much above 20 degrees fahrenheit Sunday, Monday, and Tuesday, with average wind speeds bef tween 15-20 miles per hour. When the gusts were the worst, they were blowing up to 50 MILES PER HOUR. 1 Wind chill for 8 a.m. Monday was 24 degrees below zero, at 8 a.m. on Tuesday (when we got another inch of snow) it was -9 degrees below zero, and Wednes­ day it was -17. On the Weather Channel there v/as a winter storm advisory and a wind chill advisory in effect for Tuesday and Wednes­ day. THEY saw fit to warn us of impend­ ing danger. Fortunately, people get much more cautious when there is snow on the road and a storm in the air. The police depart­ ment said there were only nine weatherf related accidents for the first three days of last week. However, on Thursday and Friday, when there was slush and frozen snow still on the roads and parking lots, ten more accidents occurred. I know it is not practical or desirable from the administration's point of view to cancel classes every time there is snow­ fall (as the rest of the state does), but when even college students get nervous about driving and sliding sideways on River Street, or pedestrians worry about just staying upright in the wind and snow, it becomes obvious that a delay or cancel­ lation might be in order. Until the administration realizes this, 111 be out there searching for Obi Wan Kenobi with the rest of you. Anyone who has ever tried to park a car on campus knows that it is getting in­ creasingly difficult to do so. In the last year, construction and the end of the lease on the Baptist parking lot have meant the demise of about 350 parking spaces. While rising enrollment is increasing the demand on the spaces still available, another 350 or so will be destroyed within the next year or two. Clearly, ASU is faced with a problem. "I can see next year being a disaster... conve­ nient parking will be slim," said ASU Police Captain Stephen Perry. "I'd like to see at least a thousand new spaces close to campus," he said. This would seem to be a good idea; the world needs more concrete. Unfortunately, it's not that simple. First of all, there is very little available land near campus. Students are already forced to park at the Broyhill Inn and out at State Farm, where, on a clear day, you can almost see the campus. Following this trend would probably place any future lots in Wilkesboro or Winston-Salem. That's a long walk to class. Besides, any available land will probably be used up for construction projects. Unless we build the Appalachian Convocation Center, the new steam plant, the proposed Greek housing, the Academic Support Center, the new baseball field, the McKinney Alumni Center, and the new Science/Math building on stilts, it will prove exceedingly difficult to park one's car on the land that these facilities will oc­ cupy. Furthermore, despite the fact that as of 1994 the parking budget was in the black by a whopping $714,638.78, it would seem that, lamentably, we do not actually have the wherewithal to go ahead and pave the world. New parking spaces cost about $1,200 each ($6,000-$8,000 if they are in a parking deck). That means that the entire parking budget surplus could only buy a maximum of 600 spaces, and that's in an engineer's dream-world of perfectly flat ground that does not need to be levelled or have complicated drainage systems installed (under this definition, UNCW is a park­ ing lot engineer's dream world). One complication of this already complicated problem is that this is the sort of campus issue that is breathtakingly boring. The difficulty involved in planning, con­ structing, and paying for parking lots is not the sort of issue that prompts demonstra­ tions, marches, "Rock Around the Parking Crisis" musical benefits, and other such social events. So what are we to do? Should we expect the traffic supervision staff to hold a bake sale? Are we going to adopt the drastic proposal of forbidding freshmen to bring their cars to school? Will SGA introduce a proposal to convert East Hall to a high-rise parking deck? Who knows? The one thing that is clearly apparent is that students and faculty alike should be loading up on coffee and No-Doz and giving serious attention to this dilemma. Like most problems, it is very unlikely that this situation will get better by itself. ~T £ur\oAVjYyxv)«_ -Vk*- OkT\ S KjJtr 4o ooC ptvflCirX) pfotWws pF\aA-0-rf\ani! o- A 1J �The Appalachian, Thursr* Readers reflect on ACES The Appalachian is looking for writers and cartooni&t Applicants must be creative and reli^ fc apply, call Patrick Saleeby or Mike CI ^ at 262-3104. „ CHARLIE HORSE RESTAURANT &B> Roger Suclupe Off-campus senator ASU Box 07278 E-Mail The Appalachian!!

Tell that to coach Tom Apke and the rest of the Appalachian men's basketball team. After a 75-76 last-second loss to Davidson Saturday afternoon, the Mountaineers had to regroup for a Monday night date with the Thundering Herd of Marshall. After enjoying a 14point lead in the second half, the wheels fell off the wagon and Marshall roared back to escape with a 70-69 win. Coach Billy Donnovan had to expect that the Apps would come out hot, looking to avenge the 93-80 pounding his Herd gave the Mountaineers on Jan. 14. Those expectations were realized as Appalachian got out to an early 11-5 lead less than four minutes into the game. Kareem Livingston was the man early on for the Apps , scoring six of the team's first 13 points. His performance was then complimented by another phenomenal display by Chad McClendon. McClendon played huge in the first half, scoring 11 points and gathering 13 boards, not to mention three assists. More importantly, Appalachian seemed to snap out of their shooting slump, hitting 52 percent of their first half shots. Marshall came back and took a six point lead of their own with back-to-back buckets by Malik Hightower. Troy Gray helped the Herd's cause with nine points of his own before intermission. The game remained nip and tuck through out the first half. Appalachian regained the lead but could not pull away, committing 10 first half turnovers to Marshall's full court pressure. The Herd also struggled offensively, hitting only four of the 16 three pointers they hoisted in the opening 20 minutes. Donnovan's squad connected on only 31 percent of their attempts from the floor. In the opening minutes of the second half, Appalachian played as well as they have all season. This despite of the fact that McClendon had only two points and four rebounds after the break. Brian Hege scored nine points in a row off of three long range jumpers. The lead ballooned to 14 points with Appalachian taking control 49-35 with 16:00 left in the contest. Then it happened.

But hold on a minute... we need to have a talk about last weekend's All-Star festivities. The actual game was okay, but I want to talk about All-Star Saturday. The NBA definitely has the best all-around AllStar weekend in professional sports, but this past weekend left me with a hollow feeling. We'll start with the Schick Rookie Game. This is the only event I'll give the NBA credit for. In all honesty, replacing the Legends Game with rookies was one of the best ideas the league has ever had. I mean, Rick Barry, Bobby Jones, and Calvin Murphy were good in their day, but there comes a time when you have to let go. It should've been called the Hospital Game - every year one of the legends was injured, had a heart attack, or forgot where the game was. The halftime of the rookie game was very disappointing. Mike Hoban failed in his attempt to hit a three-pointer for a mil­ lion bucks. TNT handled this well. TNT/ TBS reporter Craig Sager, who's about as exciting as a Legends Game, grilled the poor 16-year-old after he missed. Here is a dramatization of the post-shot interview: see Lightning page 10 j Chad McClendon had 13 points and 17 rebounds in Appalachian's one point loss to Marshall Monday night, (photo by Rhett Butler} Despite loss, Apps still in first place Darryl Stevens Staff Writer An opportunity for payback presented (self Monday night at Furman University, >ut 26 points from the Paladins' Karen Stanley was enough to keep Appalachian State a step behind and one loss richer, 13-68. Luckily, the time for a shake-up in the Southern Conference was not to be. Sec>nd-place East Tennessee State, also on he road this week, lost to UT-Chattatooga, 82-59, on Monday. In a starting role, Melissa Davis led the Mountaineers offensively with 16 points, seven rebounds and flaunted her quick lands by collecting three steals. Turn­ overs, however, hurt Appalachian more than Furman. Appalachian, which had averaged about two turnovers less than its opponents this season, lost the basketball 24 times. The three-point shot, a staple of Appalachian's game plan this year, was not a factor in the loss. Appalachian took only 14 threes, six less than usual, and made five. Beth Kilby, the all-time leader for Andreia Hinton continued her fast pace, scoring 13. "She's coming into her own more," says Coach Linda Robinson. "We're such a balanced team, and she's realiz­ ing, 'Hey, if I do my part, and everyone "She's realizing, 'Hey, if I do my part, and everyone else does their part, we'll be okay.'" Linda Robinson Womens Basketball Coach Hinton three-pointers Appalachian State, did not attempt a trey on Monday. Her gamehigh seven boards were not enough to pull ASU over Furman. Shannon Spencer and Karolina Karlqvist contributed 10 points apiece. else does their part, we'll be okay.'" Hinton's play is consistently strong lately, as her 16-point average over ASU's last four games indicates. App's 2-2 record in those games belies the success of the entire season. Besides Furman's sweep of Appalachian this year, the Mountaineers' other losses in 1994-95 came from a strong South Carolina team, formerly nationally-ranked Texas A&M, and Middle Tennessee State. "We need to get stability back. We need to get our confidence back," said Coach Robinson. 'The team is excited to get back on the floor." Georgia Southern also is clinging to hopes of a regular season championship, with a 6-3 record as of Monday. The Eagles trail Furman in the standings - the Lady Paladins are 8-3 in the Southern. Furman (12-10 overall) travels to GSU on Satur­ day, and the winner will likely have the best shot at overtaking East Tennessee State and Appalachian State. East Tennessee State (8-3 conference, 15-6) hosts the Lady Apps on Saturday, and ASU's 8-2 Southern Conference mark makes the game an important one. Not only is first place tossed up for grabs, but with a week remaining in the season, the hope of regaining lost momentum for the tournament takes priority.

(Rhett Butler) ' Sager: What happened there, Mike? Hoban: I just left it a little short. Sager: Well, how do you feel knowing that you blew your family's chance at a million dollars? Hoban: Well... Sager: Don't worry, Mike - better luck next time. The sad thing was that it didn't stop there. The audience was able to see locker room shots of Hoban brushing away tears with Phoenix Suns forward Dan Majerle by his side. If Ted Turner was trying to scar the young man's life, I think he did a good job. Next came the AT8cT Long Distance Shoot-Out - the 'ol standby. Not much savvy or flash, but still the same. You had the regulars there - Steve Kerr, Chuck Per­ son, Glenn Rice, and Reggie Miller. Home­ town favorite Majerle did not have a good outing. He was probably rattled by trade rumors of he and Wesley Person going to Chicago for Scottie Pippen. In the end, it was Miller and Rice for the trophy, and Rice prevailed. Even though the highest score was only 19 (by Scott Burrell in the first round, and Miller and Rice in the second), the long distance shoot-out was still much more exciting than the slam dunk contest. And let me tell you about the slam dunk contest. Boorring. This was the sec­ ond year of the new format, and hope­ fully, the NBA now realizes what a flop this new format is. Instead of taking turns doing dunks (with one "replacement dunk" per round), each dunker gets an allotted amount of time (90 seconds) to do three dunks. Talk about anticlimactic. There really isn't that competition between dunkers like there used to be. Before, a dunker would try to upstage the dunk that occurred before his. Now, a dunker must upstage a 90 second "program." Harold Miner won the con­ test for the second time, adding his name once more to a list of mediocre players that are good dunkers (Dee Brown, Kenny Smith, etc.). Sadly enough, there were many dunkers who didn't even get three slams down. The slam dunk contest has been reduced to a bunch of no-name players ( who is Jamie Watson?) jumping around a gym looking like they are lost (kind of like a Legends Game). All in all, the NBA has made one good decision concerning All-Star Satur­ day, and one bad one. Thumbs up for the rookie game; thumbs down for the slam dunk contest. But for God's sake, I hope TNT controls their reporters- lay off the kid next time. I �The Appalachian, a game total of 22.

The Portland Trailblazers traded Clyde Drexler to the Hous­ ton Rockets Tuesday, reuniting him with University of Houston team­ mate and Phi Slama Jama "frater­ nity" brother Hakeem Olajuwon. The defending-chdmpion Rockets sent power forward Otis Thorpe to Portland for Drexler; for­ ward Tracy Murray, and a 1995 conditional first-round draft pick. Drexler was averaging 22 points and 5.7 rebounds per game this season for the Trailblazers, who are 12 games behind Phoenix in the Pacific West. Thorpe was averaging 13 points and 9 re­ bounds per game for the Rockets, who surprisingly have fallen 4 games behind Utah in the Mid­ west. Drexler said before the season started that he wanted to be traded. He wasn't happy playing for a rebuilding team and new coach RJ. Carlesimo. He earned $1.57 million this year, but he gets a balloon payment of $9.75 mil­ lion next season. Thorpe makes $2.57 million this year. Both play­ ers are 32 years old. The Rockets, looking for more offense, now have only Carl Herrera and possibly Robert Horry at power forward. Portland al­ ready had Clifford Robinson, Buck Williams, Harvey Grant, and Mark Bryant at forward, so adding Thorpe doesn't make much sense. But the Blazers didn't really want Thorpe, they were just tired of Drexler's complaining and they wanted to get something for him before he left as a free agent. As long as he plays consis­ tently and stays healthy, Drexler may be just what the Houston Rockets need to repeat as NBA champions. Rich Grant's big dream Special to The Appalachian Rich Grant is a Southern Con­ ference four-time champion, New England TAC champion, ASU school record holder in two events, NCAA provisional qualifier, fouryear team captain and team MVR yet remains a stone's throw away from his self-imposed goals. In Grant's case, it is not a stone's throw, but a hammer's throw. Grant is one of the best hammer and 351b weight throwers in Southern Conference history, and hasn't finished making his impact yet. The ASU senior from Connecticut will graduate this spring with yet another set of awards and records. Grant's athletic career did not begin as a hammer thrower. At prep school, he concentrated on football, where he intended to continue at the collegiate level. However, during his senior year in high school, he suffered an injury fatal to his grid-iron dreams. While shoulder sepa­ ration and reconstructive surgery ended football, it directed him into the new and addictive world of track and field. Grant's older brother had already found the hard-core world of the throwing events at ASU. His brother, Rob, was the ASU record holder in the javelin, and Southern Conference cham­ pion at the time Grant was look­ ing into colleges. Under the ad­ vice of his brother, Grant visited the southward school and found a place where he could compete with individual attention, yet at the NCAA division level. While still undergoing reha­ bilitation on his shoulder, Grant and ASU coach A1 Fereshetian de­ cided to hold out of competition for his first year, as they foresaw a profitable future ahead. With Grant's shoulder not at 100 per­ cent, Fereshetian introduced him to the hammer, which stressed the shoulder less than the javelin. "I found it one of the most difficult things that I had ever attempted athletically," said Grant on his nascence days as a hammer thrower. From that spring of 1991 on, Grant has dedicated the better part of his non-academic time solely to the hammer. At his home in Con­ necticut, he found an additional coach, Bill Sutherland. Sutherland, a former top U.S. thrower, and cur­ rent world age group ranked thrower, proved to be the perfect Grant mentor for Grant. Through Sutherland, both Grant and Fereshetian learned the ins and outs of the delicate yet powerful art of throwing. "The only way to really learn the event is repetition after repeti­ tion," said Grant of his incessant training. Fereshetian adds, "He's probably taken over 200,000 turns over the last five years, and count­ ing." With Grant's relentless train­ ing in the throwing circle, and Olympic-style weight lifting, im­ mense success has come. As a freshman, he won the S.C. with a hurl of 169'. "Winning the first one was most memorable, my brother and I were both S.C. champions that year." Sophomore year hinted at more of the talent yet to be un­ leashed, a throw of 179' won Grant his second S.C. hammer title. "My junior year was the big­ gest breakthrough," said Grant, "technically, I really started to throw well." It was during his 1994 season that he won the 35lb indoor weight as well as the out­ door hammer in the S.C. After the NCAA season, Grant pursued his event in Connecticut with a win at the New England champion­ ships. His victory with a personal record of 196' put him ahead of two former Ail-Americans, one of which had narrowly missed the 1992 U.S. Olympic team. And the Olympics is a goal of Grant's that is realistically within grasp. Currently, Grant is ranked 9th in the NCAA in the indoor weight, which he does not con­ sider his forte. "Rich is a poten­ tial 1995 Ail-American hammer candidate at 210' plus," said Coach Fereshetian. Upon gradu­ ation and a hopeful fulfillment of his Ail-American goal, Grant intends to postpone his exercise science studies in favor of train­ ing for the 1996 Olympics to be held in Atlanta. While the close of Grant's NCAA draws near, his athletic ca­ reer as an American force has only begun. From his coach's perspec­ tive: "Rich is a quality gentleman, he's an ideal model of what a stu­ dent athlete is all about. Dedicated to everything he does, he recog­ nizes the need to train 12 months of the year, and tries to train 13. All his work and talent will surely come to a magnificent fruition by the time 1996 rolls around." Grant's absence on the ASU track team will be sorely missed when he graduates in 1995. 9 �Page 12 The Appalachian, Thursday Quinn Center Appalachian News Facility Hours Monday - Thursday Friday Saturday Sunday Official University News And Announcements 7 am - midnight 7 am - 8 pm 10 am - 7 pm 2 pm - 10 pm Weight Room Hours The same hours as the facility, except from 9 am - noon Lap Swim Outstanding Feu ulty Award Nomination,v| Office of Women's Concert e College of Fine and Applied Arts is accepting nominations for its annual Outstanding Faculty Award.

Tanya Moore, fraud analyst for First Union National Bank said for a credit card to be valid, an issu­ ing bank must have its name on the credit card. Neither one of the advertise­ ments used a name of a bank, which, according to Moore, is a key point in looking at a fraud. Moore said that a name of a bank should have been mentioned in the ad. She also said most credit card companies would not ask for money up front. Coppedge said he doesn't usu­ ally check into ads from credit card companies unless they ask for money up front.

Is money all that Smithsonian can't rewrite the pa Phunb Chuck Uanomi Hensey Columnist Last week, a travesty happened in the national government. It's not another con­ flict-of-interest story dealing with Newt Gingrich, nor is it the rumored appear­ ance of another bimbo to keep the presi­ dent from passing his legislation. The cri­ sis happened with the Smithsonian Insti­ tute and the controversy over the Enola Gay exhibit. The exhibit, planned for the Museum of Air and Space, planned to show the plane that dropped the atomic bombs on Hiroshima and Nagasaki to end World War II in August of 1945. The controversy dealt with the narration that was to accompany the proposed exhibit. The curators wanted to not only men­ tion that this was the plane that dropped the atomic bombs on Japan, but also it dared to try and interpret the events that took place during the end of the war. The exhibit, as planned, would have been very I j_ I C ^Vl 1) ntvnllrtM a sympathetic tf~\ the ill rtf to tIt P thousands of civilians who were killed when each one of the bombs went off, and also to the thousands who were affected by the radiation for years to come.

Now, I wouldn't have much of an ar­ ticle here if this plan had not annoyed a few people. Actually, the Smithsonian made no one happy. The veterans groups called for a removal of this claiming that it "insulted the dignity of anyone who had ever defended the country." Peace activ­ ists argued I that the Smithsonian should i « « not make an exhibit honoring the plane that started the Atomic Age and the arms build-up during the Cold War.

A brief precursor to our emergence into the real world. Right? While this scenario may sound like the ideal goal that our parents have mapped out for us, in reality, it holds little truth. The fact is, many of us are staring blankly into the faces of our advisors and filling out the "undecided" bubble on question­ naires. Even if we have an idea of the path we want to take, many of us are still asking "What if this is the wrong field for me? What if my calling is in a field I haven't even explored yet? When am I going to find direction?" If you're still a bit confused, guess what? That's okay! I've always felt our society places too much emphasis on im­ mediately picking a career path. In East­ ern cultures, it's considered perfectly ac­ ceptable to take time to sort of "find your­ self' before making any major life deci­ sions. People are encouraged to wander and find their own path before commit­ ting themselves to any career or lifestyle... ever read "Siddhardtha?"

Students who have not declared a major should have received a letter in their ASU post office box reminding them to make an appointment with their advisor for help in planning their schedules. Advising for schedule planning will run through March 3 for seniors, juniors and sophomores, and will be from March 13 through April 5 for freshmen. Now is also a good time to pre-de- clare. If you know what you would like to major in, you may pre-declare even if you have not completed enough hours to officially declare. After you successfully complete the required number of hours, the AAC will send your records to the col­ lege of your major.

"Overall, this meet was an outstanding tune-up for the South­ ern Conference championship two weeks from now," said Fereshtian. 'The unity of the small team that we brought to Kent was very posi­ tive. It was this team spirit that helped our 20 athletes to beat the 40-plus of the home team." While the team lost the meet by mere points, the number of victories and quality perfor­ mances was unreal. "Now it's time to go out and put on the finishing touches for next weekend," said Fereshetian. and distance, logically lies the middle distances. Garson Hedrick and Jon Austin ruled their respec­ tive events, the 600m and 800m. Hedrick looped the 300m Mondo track twice in 1:21 for vic­ tory, while Austin won the 800 in 1:55. Austin has just recently be­ gun to hit his stride again, and hopes to repeat as S.C. champion. Judson Sarver and Chris Huffstickler dominated the other middle distance race. Huffstickler won the mile in 4:14 while freshman star Sarver showed a hint of what made him a nationally ranked prep last year. He ran 4:20 for 3rd place.

During the debate over Walters' appointment, Carlee Cole, Belk residence hall senator, accused Walters of greeting her "with extremely offensive language."

Walters responded, "That's fair on your part, but I did not say that. I don't say (f you)," he said. Chad McRae, off-campus senator, explained the problems he and others had with Walters' appointment. "I think that some of the main problems are his com­ ments to Carlee (Cole), and his overall general attitude," he said. Dan Norris, off-campus senator, accused Walters of having a poor attitude. "(Walters) told me: 'I do not care about Boone at all." Todd Finch, off-campus senator, in support of Walters cited his good work ethic as a qualification. "He is on the ball," he said. McRae also cited "diversity (on cabinet as) a main concern. To appoint an­ other Delta Chi to cabinet is not diversity." Of 14 cabinet members (includ- Walters ing President J.D. Adams and Vice Presi­ dent Jane Mclntyre) 11 are members of a Greek fraternity or sorority. Six of eight male cabinet members are brothers of Delta Chi. Michael Hagerty, Gardner resi­ dence hall senator, defended Walters. "I See Walters page 13 Classes unaffected by weather Manya Brachear News Editor "If the snow was 14 feet deep we'd all be here," Carole Muirhead, departmen­ tal secretary for the military science de­ partment, said with a chuckle. Unfortunately that was not the case for many other academic depart­ ments on campus yesterday when kneedeep snow stalled automobiles and clogged roadways to prevent faculty and students from making it to campus. Melissa Cook, administrative sec­ retary for the geology department, said at least 10 students had called in unable to make it to class due to the weather. Approximately 20 students each called into the marketing department and the communications department. "We don't want them (students) to take a chance at all," Dr. Kenneth Pea­ cock, dean of the college of business, said. "We don't want students to suffer from a grade standpoint either." Marketing professor Warren Na­ tion said he would not change his atten­ dance policy unless he received instruc­ tions from above. Nation deducts from the total grade points for any absence, ex­ cused or unexcused. "It'll be that way unless we get instructions to be lenient," he said. Departmental offices advised stu­ dents to call their individual professors in order to make sure their absences would be excused. Some faculty members were not able to make it either, however. "If they can't make it, they can't make it," Jeannie Harmon of the Chancellor's office said. If the faculty members were not available, either, Dr. Harvey Durham, vice chancellor for aca­ demic affairs, said the department chairs must cover the classes themselves or find other professors to do so. Dr. Terry Cole, communications department chair, said the one faculty member in the communications depart­ ment who couldn't make it up the moun­ tain teaches journalism, which Cole does not teach. "The requirement that depart­ ment chairs must cover for them (absent professors) is nice in theory but you can't always find people free during that hour," Cole said. During last year's icy conditions, faculty members contacted local media themselves to advise them of individual class cancellations. The Appala­ chian News Bureau released a statement in November that they would notify local media such as WASU, WATA and Cable Channel 6 of university closings. The statement also said that the university reserves the right to cancel classes during inclement weather. Al- Pat Morgan Reporter The Appalachian State Univer­ sity Office of Housing Operations will conduct lotteries for students wishing to live in Appalachian Heights Apartments, Newland Hall and Winkler Hall for the Fall Semester of 1995. Three separate lotteries will be held after current residents have been given an opportunity to reclaim their rooms. Each lottery will consist of the random drawing of applications until all of the remaining spaces have been filled. Students didn't just hit the books this week. They also hit the slopes on skis, snowboards, sleds, anything they could find.

The inclement weather policy, according to Academic Af­ fairs, said the chanceUor consults the vice chancellor for business affairs, the associate vice chancel­ lor for business affairs for physi­ cal operations and the director of public safety to assess the need to cancel classes. Factors to aid the decision include wind chUl factor; tempera­ ture, road conditions, conditions of parking lots and conditions of university walkways. Any or aU of these factors may play a role in the decision-making process. "It is, however, suggested that wind chill factors in excess of 35 degrees be­ low zero to be a major factor in the decision-making process," the policy said. Harmon said the chancellor's office contacts the highway patrol beginning at 6 a.m. on inclement weather days. The office maintains contact through­ out the day in case conditions change. 'The roads are hazardous but not impassable," said Harmon. She said more emphasis is placed on walkways than on road­ ways since the campus houses so many students.

Reid said the new lottery system was implemented after the Office of Housing Operations had contacted various student organi­ zations, including SGA, the Cam­ pus Resident Student Association, as well as the individual RSA rep­ resentatives from each of the residence haUs. "What the students told us was, 'We want something that gives us a fair shot at getting into some of the different types of hous­ ing,"' said Reid. "Based on student input, I think we came up with a pretty good system." Originally, students would have had to decide which resi­ dence haU they wished to live in before an overaU lottery. However, after conferring with student groups, the decision was made to stagger the lotteries, so that stu­ dents who did not get into a par­ ticular haU would still be able to have a chance to get into the other two. Students wishing to either reclaim an apartment or enter the lottery for Appalachian Heights must apply in groups of four or eight, must currently live on cam­ pus, and have accumulated 57 or more undergraduate hours by the end of this semester. Those wishing to live in Winkler or Newland Halls must live on campus and have 28 or more hours by Spring 1995. Winkler Hall applicants must ap­ ply in groups of four or eight, while Newland HaU applicants can only apply in groups of four. The results of each lottery will be posted in each residence hall at noon on Feb. 10 (Appala­ chian Heights), Feb.14 (Newland) and Feb. 20 (Winkler).

App cares about the environrT policy needed The fight for Howard's Knob should not end witfn The Boone winter we've all been waiting for is finally here. With yesterday's first big snow comes the an­ nual griping about the university's weather policy, or lack thereof. With snow falling continuously throughout yesterday, students faced a greater challenge getting back home than they did trying to get to class. Many wondered, "Why the heck aren't classes canceled? What is the university's policy anyway?" According to academic affairs, the university's policy simply states, well, nothing. The policy spends a lot of time describing who will decide if classes are canceled, and no time at all telling stu­ dents what circumstances, if there are any, would cause the decision-makers to actu­ ally cancel classes. The policy does state that the fol­ lowing factors will be considered: wind chill factor (a 35 below zero wind chill is considered a "major factor"), temperature, road conditions and conditions of park­ ing lots and university walkways. There is no need for ASU to hold up its reputation of "being tough and go­ ing to class no matter what" at the expense of student safety. And yes, there are those who believe students will just get hurt try­ ing to go skiing if classes are canceled. But The Appalachian staff doesn't know too many students who enjoy racing down from the top of a mountain in 20 below zero temperatures. — Robert Robertson Columnist - but only if they try.

Doesn't skiing have the highest death risk? Can any other sport make your nose run like a faucet even when you don't have a cold? In what sport is it more likely that your ears will fall off than you will sprain an ankle? The answer to all of these questions is skiing. I have come to the conclusion that when I signed up for a Monday night ski class I signed up to get embarrassed.

However, I think Locke is using a nonexistent example of a stereotype to cause anger in the African American community. I state this with an older McDonald's commercial in mind where a Caucasian American or­ ders a Big Mac by singing, "two all beef patties, special sauce, etc." How many Caucasians sing when they order a Big Mac? Or what of the Burger King commercial for "The Lion King" when there is a whole restaurant of Caucasians singing that ridicu­ lous, "in the jungle, the mighty jungle" song? Is that a stereotype of Caucasians? I think not. It is simply an advertisement directed at a specific audience by the group of morons who make commer­ cials. I understand Locke's other points, but I don't think correct­ ing the situation (racism) is as hopeless as she portrays it. With cooperation between the races in­ stead of competition, I think the situation can be and is being changed.

I 'Tals^ Profs too vocal on student issues Faculty 'Vote Yes1 ad unneeded Steven MacKay Guest Columnist In last Tuesday's (Jan. 31) issue of 'The Appalachian" I saw something that startled me. It was an ad that some professors took out proclaiming the virtues of the ACES campaign. This ad said "The Center for the Development of Social Re­ sponsibility supports ACES and encourages students to VOTE YES..." Underneath this banner was a quote by Dr. Bud Gerber, who called the campaign "most honorable." To the right of this was a list of about 40 professors who also voiced their support. The fact that a group of professors can publicly proclaim their support for one cause over another scares me. Don't get me wrong; I'm an absolute supporter of the First Amendment, and whatever their be­ lief, it should be heard and respected. However, professors need to be wary of their power over stu­ dents. If a professor publicly advocates support for a cause or a politi­ cal candidate, whether it be in class or in an ad in the paper, they need to consider the effect it will have on students. It may not even be a change in voting, but a change in political belief or a silencing of those that the student already holds. Professors have an immense power, in the form of grades, over students. I'm not suggesting that professors would punish students over how they vote or think, but students may see it as an obligation to do as their professor does - possibly out of a real or imagined fear. It has happened in the past. I have seen students voice their political beliefs that don't coincide with a professor's and suffer for it. It has happened to me. In a class a few years ago, I advocated a conservative viewpoint against my professor's liberal one. I was all but ignored after that point. A few weeks ago, one of my professors confronted me over the "Say No to ACES" sticker I was wearing. Situations like this are not good. For a split second I felt obli­ gated to change my views to appease my instructor. However, I held my ground. I just hope there will be no repercussions for my actions. What really scares me is that some students may not hold their ground. I am not proclaiming that all students are blind calves with the IQs of roosters. However, there are many students who hang on their professor's every desire. I know some students who would paint them­ selves blue if their professor said to. Many of these students may end up changing their beliefs or vote a certain way to please their instruc­ tor. So, I ask that professors watch how they advocate support for causes or beliefs. For they may kill something more precious than a life, they may kill another belief. * « * THE. * * * * * * *W X T A * SNOVJ * * T>\CXFTS* out a sense of humor.

Victoria Hastie President, National Organization for Women Boone Area Chapter ACES debate brought out App student activism To the Editor: WOW! I was very im­ pressed by the passions that found inspiration in the ACES debate. As a "new" student I was dismayed at the apathetic attitude exhibited by the majority of the student body in November, which led me to the apparently erroneous conclusion that political activism was dead at ASU. Thank you for proving me wrong! I am still baffled by the number of students and the degree of fervor that this issue elicited. Apathy has long range repercus­ sions. Thank you for defeating apathy by voicing your opinion in the ACES debate! Susanne D. Faircloth ASU Box 07837 Letters to the Editor must be signed. The Appalachian will not print anonymous letters. Judicial board offers students experience To the Editor: Students on the campus of ASU are unfortunately not very aware of the policy nor procedure pertaining to the judicial affairs of the university. As a student judi­ cial board member, I am frequently asked, "Student judicial board? What do you do - suspend people?" Well, the answer a lot of the time is YES, we do suspend people. I got involved with the ju­ dicial board because I was inter­ ested in the law and fair judicial process for students. We hear cases where stu­ dents violate the alcohol policy, visitation, assault...etc. Basically, anything that happens on our cam­ pus that violates the code of stu­ dent conduct rests in the hands of judicial affairs. Some of the board members are selected to serve on the academic integrity board and review cases of plagiarism and cheating. Why am I telling you all of this? I am extending to the stu­ dents of Appalachian the invitation to apply to become members of the student judicial board. It is a huge honor that should not be taken lightly. The application process is fairly painless, but the possibilities are endless. You serve your school in a professional capacity and act as a university official. You learn about communication, student at­ titudes and how to deal with ad­ ministration first hand. Kimrey M.

Then they con­ vince the not-so-wise guys that they're vis­ iting hitmen from Chicago. When the mobsters figure out who Johnny and Kamal really are, not even the longest long distance can save the Boys. The jokes are few and far between, and the script is more out-of-date than a ro­ tary phone. I was really looking forward to this movie (I love the records), but it boils down to the excitement level of opening a phone bill. The Boys are hilarious on the phone, but these poor guys have zero screen cha­ risma. At least Kamal seems relaxed. Johnny is so nervous you can actually see his sweat. The funniest scenes are the handful of voice-overs on the phone and all of the different and unusual voices the Boys use.

While this may be the attitude ex­ pressed by some students, others are not nearly as enthusiastic about the whole affair; especially students who live off campus who must find a way to class. Michael Foley, a senior who lives off campus, drove to class with his room­ mate. "My roommate and I had to dig our way out of the driveway," said Foley. "We usually ride the AppalCart, but when it was late, we decided to drive." Arrnrrlinrv t-r\ m According to dispatcher Troy Greer of AppalCart, all the buses are getting around marginally well. "We've put snow chains on all the tires," said Greer. "Our biggest problem is that we're running about five to 10 minutes late." Evidently, the buses are running a little later than AppalCart thinks. Rob Robertson, who lives on 421, said he waited for the AppalCart for 20 min­ utes. Luckily, he was able to wait inside the veterinarian's office where the AppalCart stops. Once he got on the bus, a bit of a fright­ ening ride ensued. I he Cart has to go down a steep hill by the jail, and it slid," said Robertson. "Then it slid again going up Water Street, and we almost hit a truck. The drivers were making jokes over the radio about needing hazard pay" Robertson said. Even though the ride was somewhat scary, Robertson said he really appreciates all the drivers are doing, because without them, he wouldn't have been able to make it to campus at all. Even students who live on campus and walk to class experienced some trouble. Scarlett Wooten, who lives in Gardner Hall, said she was about 10 minutes late for her class. I didn t think the snow would slow me down as much as it did," said Wooten. Most students don't begrudge the fact that they had to be in class. Some, though, thought there should be some set guide­ lines regulating when classes should be canceled. One student suggested that an inch rule be imposed. If it snows six inches, for in­ stance, classes are canceled. Wooten, however, thought a wind chill guide would be more effective. If the wind chill is below a certain point," Wooten said, "classes should be canceled." For now, neither rain nor snow nor sleet will keep the hallowed halls of ASU closed.

The show is soon put to bed with only one minor piece of editing required and only one minute of time left unfilled. That's an amazing accomplishment ac­ cording to Mauney, but not as amazing as Appalvision itself. "The fact that we're even doing it is great," he said. "Nothing like this has ever been attempted here at Appalachian." As the crew begins tearing down the set, all agree on one thing. This is the best show yet. "If I had the money I'd take the crew out to dinner," Mauney said at the conclusion of the show. "But I don't." Foreign Car Maintenance And Repairs DAYS GAMES • KM Starnes flys effortlessly through the first few segments of the show. "Stupid Food", a skit consisting of real products picked up from a lo­ cal grocer, is a hit with the audi­ ence. Dr. Cole's interview goes through flawlessly with just a few tense moments. They head for a commercial break as the crew in the control booth are looser then they had been at the beginning. A "commercial" runs for a class on how to be a talk show host. As the commercial ends another skip happens on tape. Then disaster strikes. A computer called the "toaster" which contriols vidoetape misfires and a tape from weeks ago begins playing across the screen. Brown sees the screen, shrieks, grabs two handfuls of his own hair and plops his head down on the desk. "Arrgggghhhhh!!!" The crew set about pausing all the tapes then discover they lost track of the show's time. As tapes rewind and the time is set, the crew and audience get an unex­ pected 15 minute break. Someone announces the score of the Carolina-Maryland game over the headset, 39-38 Maryland, and one of the camera operators begins a victory dance on the floor. Starnes sits behind the desk and jokes with Brown as Foster takes the time to relax on the set. Dr. Cole develops his own theory regarding the delay. "This is a delay for newer equip­ ment, right?" he says. The crew needs the laugh. It breaks the ten­ sion. Soon the tapes are ready to roll as Starnes prepares to introduce the band. Suddenly, he grabs a box of "People Crackers" dog biscuits and takes a bite as the show re­ sumes. The audience and the crew love it.

(Photo by Rett Buttler) ASU signs USC too much for lady Apps eleven new recruits Daryl Stevens Staff Writer ecialto The Appalachian al * The Mountaineer men's basketball team returned home to Varsity Gym Monday night to take on the Georgia South­ ern Eagles. Appalachian was coming off of a 76-60 loss at Furman that dropped their record to 6-14 overall and 2-5 in the Southern Conference. A win at home would be cru­ cial in keeping the team's head above water in the confer­ ence race. The 60-53 victory over the Eagles turned out to be the life preserver the Mountaineers needed. The Apps jumped out early and took control of the game from the outset. A pair of Clint Crosston free throws at the 12:11 mark of the first half gave the Mountaineers a 21-12 advantage, the largest lead the Apps would enjoy. Georgia Southern then started roaring back behind the play of Tim Heath. Heath scored 13 points and grabbed five rebounds before the break as the Eagles pulled ahead to a 36-31 halftime lead. The Mountaineers still seemed to be in their shoot­ ing slump, connecting on only 40.7 percent of their first half shots. The Apps turned the ball over nine times in the first stanza and were out-rebounded by Georgia South­ ern, but terrible shooting by the Eagles, 37 percent from the field, was enough to keep the Mountaineers within striking distance. In the second half, Appalachian started to chip away at the Eagle advantage. Strong interior play by Kareem Livingston and Chad McClendon pushed the Mountaineers to a 52-52 tie with 6:00 left in the game. The score remained knotted until a pair of Crosston free throws gave the Apps a 54-52 lead, their first since late in the first half. Junior Braswell then salted away the remaining time by getting a layup and hitting 2 of 5 free throws on the way to the 60-53 final score. Georgia Southern had only 17 points in the entire second half. The Eagles never really got on track offen­ sively, shooting a scant 36 percent for the game. However, GSU was not the team guilty of bricklaying. The Mountaineers also shot 36 percent from the field but somehow managed 29 second half points to get the win. It was ugly, but it counts. McClendon led the charge for the Apps with 12 points and a game-high 11 rebounds. Tige Darner had a big game with 11 points and four assists. Braswell also contributed with eight points and nine boards. Next upior the Mountaineers will be the Wildcats of Davidson. The Apps will try to avenge the Jan. 23 loss in Davidson where the Mountaineers came up on the short end of a 74-71 score. CO t Appalachian State's head Football Coach Jerry Moore recently announced the signing of 11 recruits to the football team. Ten high school seniors and one junior college player signed national let­ ters of intent to play at Appalachian for the 1995 season. According to Moore, the recruiting was handicapped a bit by the limited num­ ber of scholarships available for incom­ ing players. The scholarship spaces were limited due to the fact that the Mountaineers had only nine seniors on the roster for the 1994 season. The limited number of scholarships Put the emphasis on quality. "With just 11 ^nnts available, quality was very, very, important in our recruitment this year," said Moore. "We were even more selec­ tive than normal, and we have always been extremely selective in bringing 7°ung men into our program." Moore and his staff are very happy with the signings of the eleven players. The program got the players they really Wanted. Applachian's football team looks to improve on their successful '94 cam­ paign, only losing nine seniors and pickmS up the 11 quality athletes. Moore was concerned about attract­ ing players with the limited number of foholarships. "We haven't been this lim­ ited tin number of recruits to sign] and Wefe concerned at the outset of fruiting...we might not be able to attract all of our first choices, but it was just the opposite. We were able to sign the top Payers we wanted in all 11 recruits. I'm VerY pleased about that fact, both for our stafT and the young men who will be jointeg us this fall," said Moore. To win a shoot-out back in the days of the Old West, a combination of smarts, skill, and technique was necessary. Appa­ lachian State has all of these qualities, but its game versus South Carolina on Tliesday night revealed that at least one thing was missing from the Mountaineers' bag of tricks. Bullets. Andreia Hinton's 22 points and eight boards in 21 minutes of playing time was perhaps one of the tightest performances by a member of Coach Linda Robinson's 1994-95 team. Hinton's heroics, however, were destined to be ill-fated, as Appalachian State lost its first road game of the year, 98-79. Gamecock guard Shannon Johnson, who was selected to the Sunbank Holiday Classic All-Tournament Team dur­ ing winter break in Florida, scorched ASU for a career-high 44 points, 11 rebounds, six assists, and no turnovers. The fact that Johnson attempted and made more free throws (9 for 14) than the entire Moun­ taineers squad (5 of 10) could be cause for concern when conference tourney time rolls around in three weeks. App forward Karolina Karlqvist, also a member of Sunbank's All-Stars in December, could not recapture the magic she found in Orlando. The junior managed six points and a pair of assists against South Carolina, a far different story from her 23 points and five treys at ASU's first encounter with USC. App won that earlyseason battle, 70-64. Five hundred forty-three fans watched ASU fall behind early and trail 43-34 at halftime. Appalachian's hopes of beating their Southeastern Conference foe for the second time deflated as Carolina (10-10) maintained fifty percent shooting in both halves. Senior Beth Kilby put down 16 points, including four three-pointers. But A closer look at mascotts |Sports Commentary Stephen Hensley Assistant Sports Reporter A mascot says a lot about the team. Coaches and players come and go, but a mascot usually lasts forever. Here is my opinion on some of the better and some of the worst mascots to come down the pike. BAD: When a mascot has nothing at all to do with the team it represents. East Tennessee State and the city of Pittsburgh are both guilty of this blunder. The ETSU Buccanneers and the Pittsburgh Pirates in­ trigue me because they come from land­ locked states. There's never been a pirate in Tennessee or Pittsburgh because there's not an OCEAN! GOOD: I prefer mascots that really get in touch with the area from whence they came. The Texas Rangers, Florida Gators, and Detroit Pistons all have good nick­ names. They sort of capture the spirit of their town. BAD: I understand that clubs move around, but why didn't the New Orleans Jazz change their name when they moved to Utah? Mormons don't listen to jazz; they listen to the Osmonds. The Lakers are another example of the phenomenon. Minnesota may be the land of 10,000 lakes, but when the Minneapolis Lakers moved to L.A. they had to notice there wasn't a lake in town. Then you get to the mascots that are just plain bizarre. What's with the Marshall Thundering Herd? A Herd of what? Furthermore, what's a Hoya? The picture is a bulldog, so they should just be the Bulldogs and leave it at that. If I had my way, and I rarely do, I would make some mascot changes. Try these on for size. New Jersey Pollutants California Tremors Appalachian State Floridians Arkansas Double Wides Buffalo Wings New Orleans Hangovers BRING IT BACK!! Do you remember when you were a kid, all the fun things that would come on t.v.? Take pro wrestling for example. When I was a kid, everybody watched wrestling on Saturday morning. The Junk Yard Dog was more than just a man, he was a legend. But now wresding is lame, everything is on pay per view. Dusty Rhodes doesn't get beaten up in the park­ ing lot anymore. There are no more pesky Russian tag teams to anger the fans into an uproar. Like an old banana in the sun, pro wrestling has turned soft. Wrestling wasn't the only sweet nour­ ishing tidbit for a young sports fan to feast upon on a Sunday afternoon. On special days, Battle of the Network Stars came on. It was a chance to watch your favorite celebrities embarrass themselves while trying to play sports. I'm sure not many of you remember the fifty yard dash that pitted "Soap's" Billy Crystal against a young David Letterman from the Carol Burnette Show. You should have seen it. Crystal won, barely. QUICK TAKES: Appalachian's Merideth Thompson racked up 6 points in a loosing effort as South Carolina topped ASU 79-98. (File Photo) the Gamecocks, unlike most of Appalachian's opponents this year, had enough stamina to match ASU bomb for bomb. South Carolina out shot App 11 to 10 from the arc, a feat worthy of note con­ sidering that the Mountaineers have taken more than twice as many threes (and made three times as many) as their oppo­ nents in 1994-95. Carolina's Johnson drained seven treys alone, four more than any other individual player has made against the Lady Apps this season. App point guard Shannon Spencer and USC guard Natalie Funderburk were in a particularly giving mood, handing out six and eight assists, respectively. South Carolina, though, was so generous (23 assists as a team) that the Gamecocks must have thought Christmas time had re­ turned. Perfecdy understandable, consid­ ering the weather of the past week, but see Lady Apps page 12 Deion Sanders, Shaquille O'neal, and Dana Barros all have released music vid­ eos this year. Has it hampered their play? No way, all three were placed on All Star teams in their respective sports this sea­ son. Maryland defeated the mighty North Carolina Tarheels Tuesday night. The Heels spent all of one day in the top spot. Dean, I hope you enjoyed it; its a lovely ride down.

Right now ASU has neither. It is time for a major over­ haul of our basketball program. A new dedication to winning is the only thing that can turn the pro­ gram around. Students and fac­ ulty have been arguing for years over the need for a new gym, but what is the point of getting a new gym when you cannot fill the stands in the current one? Maybe the answer is not a new coach or a change in the ath­ letic department, but something has got to give. Before making any decisions as to the future of the men's basketball program, I strongly urge the administration to take a good look at all of thenoptions and at least check into which coaches are on the market for a new team.

Chancellor Francis T. Borkowski said he is very proud of the students. "I thought it was an excellent debate on an issue that captured the spirit of many stu­ dents on campus," he said. Borkowski said he would con­ tinue to look into ways to save Howard's Knob. 'We need to begin by expanding the SGA Howard's Knob fund," Adams said. This fund was established Jan. 9 at Adams' request, and is being operated through the Appalachian Foundation. "We can start by letting students, faculty and the community know about the fund," he said. Schofield said he is willing to work with anyone who has an alternative plan for saving Howard's Knob. "We will work together with all interested parties in order to develop a plan that will ad­ dress these issues if one arises. I expect more student-based initiatives in the fu­ ture," he said. In regard to alternative transpor­ tation, Schofield announced that he ex­ pects construction of bike lanes on the105 extension between highways 321and 421 to begin this summer, pending final ap­ proval. Spiritual Healing... Now that the Appalachian Com­ munity and Environmental Stewardship (ACES) referendum has failed, Howard's Knob is fair game for either private land­ owners or advocates. Florida land devel­ oper Monte Green said he will place the land back on the market this week for much more than $600,000. "I've held off for two and half years. I've been bending over backward," he said. "My main concern is building my own house. Then I want to do what's best for the environment." Green said after he builds his house, he will subdivide the lots and at­ tempt to sell them for well over the fair market value of $313,000, according to the most recent appraisal commissioned by the Trust for Public Land. "The appraisal was certainly not correct," Green said. "The county consid­ ers it worth much more." By selling multiple acres Green said he hopes to "place less strain on the See Next Page 4 ACC succeeds for Arkansas Allison Pennell Reporter Manya Brachear for a "roadhouse" approach.

Helm said the cost of the project will be shared by all students just as the cost for all new housing projects taken on Members of the Appalachian Con­ vocation Center committee will soon travel to Arkansas to study the contents and construction of its model convocation center at Arkansas State University. Carol Albritton, director of the convocation center in Arkansas, said their arena has fulfilled all the purposes that they had ever dreamed of, and then some. "We're doing things we had not anticipated," Albritton said. "We do ro­ deos, circuses and ice shows. A Monster Truck show has even been done." The arena will seat 10,529 people for basketball purposes and 11,700 for certain concerts. During a Garth Brooks concert, 11,722 were allowed in before sales were cut off, Albritton said. The extra 22 people were allowed to stand. According to Albritton, many people had questioned the need for such an arena for a college where only 9,00010,000 attend. "We currently do many ban­ quets," Albritton said. "We feed 2,800 people. Nobody had ever thought of that." The center has also been used for graduations, Albritton said. They have graduations in May, December and Au­ gust. In May, 1,800 graduates with ap­ proximately four guests each filled the arena. Local high school graduations are performed there for a fee. "We allow for seven high school proms in the month of May," Albritton said. "A school 50 miles away attends. We can serve meals for them, too." "It's a multi-purpose facility," Abritton said. "Everything either rolls or folds." The Arkansas convocation center has 193,000 square feet under its roof. Their center also holds adminis­ trative offices, coaches' offices, athletic operations, storage, meeting rooms, a kitchen facility, and a 300-seat lecture room. Abritton said academics uses the See Feasibility page 2 See Arkansas Page 2 News Editor "We're further now then we've ever been. We've come a long way," said Melanie Covington, Panhellenic's repre­ sentative on the university committee for Greek Housing. Following a meeting on Friday to narrow down the architect, Covington said she expects to see what's commonly re­ ferred to as the Greek Village spring up within the next two to three years. The committee is currently undertaking a fea­ sibility study to determine whether or not the housing project is possible. Jim Street, assistant director of the Center for Student Involvement and Leadership said discussions have centered around Greek housing for about 14 years. However, serious discussion began about three years ago. Covington said the university pushed for the idea then but the students did not favor it because the proposed site at that time was State Farm. The latest site discussed so far, ac­ cording to Covington, has been on land above Appalachian Heights apartments, toward Broyhill Inn. This site would be accessible to AppalCart routes and South lot would provide plenty of room for park­ ing, said Covington. She said an exten­ sion to Hwy. 105 might also be in the works for easier access. Jane Helm, vice chancellor for business affairs and chair of the commit­ tee said any land belonging to the univer­ sity was a possibility. While some Greek members have argued that the Broyhill location would isolate the Greek organizations from the university community, Covington said she thinks the close living quarters will im­ prove relations between the different or­ ganizations. Invitations have been sent out to four architectural firms to make presen­ tations for the project. The four finalists No.31 What's next for the knob? Reporter In the largest voter turn-out in recent history at Appalachian, students rejected the proposed Appalachian Com­ munity and Environmental Stewardship (ACES) fee by a convincing margin. Of 3,431 total votes, or about 29 percent of those eligible, 1,909 students voted against ACES and 1,499 students voted in support of it. (23 votes were mismarked.) Hunter Schofield, co-author of ACES, said the knowledge he and other supporters obtained from the campaign will be useful for them in the future. "We are very proud, I think our volunteers per­ formed brilliantly," he said. Schofield is happy with what was accomplished during the campaign. "ACES has brought the issue of the democratic process, in respect to student fees, to ASU, and that is no small accomplishment," he said. Student Government Association President J.D.

The turn­ out was the largest ever in a student vot­ ing situation, as 3,408 students voiced an opinion. There are two major problems with this: the first is that approximately 7,500 students didn't have an opinion or didn't voice it; second, some had no clue about the opinion they voiced. In a study done by the Higher Educa­ tion Research Institute, "college freshmen are less interested and involved in poli­ tics [current issues] than ever before." The highest turnout in student voting history begins to seem rather bleak when eral government.

The "concerned" campaigner then said, "the issues don't really matter, it just matters that to vote [for our side] is right, and we would appreciate your support." The uninformed, but potential voter then proceeded to the ballot box to cast a vote on an issue he did not know the first thing about.

Nor am I likely to stand at attention when, one day, a Taco Bell sign is hoisted up on the Knob like the raising of the flag over Iwo Jima. In fact, I congratulate the "Vote Yes" camp for, if nothing else, continuing to earnestly express their views on an issue that so many others became so thoroughly sick of hearing about within one-third of the time. So the inevitable question arises: what does the future hold for post-ACES ASU? Are we to simply cast aside our propaganda, bed-sheet banners, and ridiculous Yes/ No stickers to embrace the dull, tedious, yet somehow necessary process of continuing our educations? Will we so easily forget the ideological divide that has made cam­ pus life so much more fun these past few months? Probably not. Just as the bacillus which causes bu­ bonic plague is never truly wiped out, the well-meaning busy-bodies who originally came up with the whole quix­ otic idea will one day rise again to make themselves the butt of bad jokes. Maybe not the exact same people, but surely these student-activist types abound, at least in lar­ val form, in the freshman class. And when the current reaction against them has peaked, they will flourish dur­ ing the next dearth of sensible, analytical thinking and raise their collective hoary head to tilt with the prevail­ ing ideological windmills of the future. Watch for "The Return of ACES, part XXVII: The Undead Rise." Not only that, but the next wave may prove even more resilient then the present one. They may do their home­ work in advance, learning a few of the facts before, as opposed to after, then form their opinions and attempt to strike fear into the hearts of the populace.

Cravin' Melon is a four-piece band out of Greeneville that formed in February of 1993. The four members, J.J. Bowers (bass) Rick Reames (drums) Doug Jones (vocals) and Jim Chapman (guitar) knew each other from their days at Clemson University. Before Melon, Reames and Chapman were with Next Move, and Jones and Bowers were in a band called Doghouse. They left their respective bands and put their common vision to­ gether to form Cravin' Melon. In just a few short years they have already become a headlining act and a major staple of the music scene in the Southeast. Their sound comes from a melodic mix of electric and acoustic gui­ tars, and has been described as a mixture of Toad the Wet Sprocket and Drivin' N' Cryin' with bits of bands like Big Head Todd and the Monsters, Gin Blossoms, and R.E.M. Greensboro's own Bus Stop will also take stage Thursday night. Bus Stop is an R&B based rock band who pull from such varied influences as Motown, reggae, disco, and southern boogie. The band is known for two things- the ability to incite a crowd and excellent musicianship. Evan Olson on vocals has brought to mind such singers as Prince (or if you must, the artist formally known as...), Michael Hutchence from INXS, Elvis Costello and Van Morrison. Chick Folds on bass, Eddie Walker on drums, and Snuzz on guitar have been repeatedly noted for their tightness and groove. The two bands will bring their high energy show to Legends Thursday. Tick­ ets are $4 in advance for students, and $5 at the door for students and guests. Doors open at 9 p.m. "Higher Learning" takes place on the kional Columbus University which is pimably in California.

Bus Stop includes Evan Olson (vocals) Chick Folds (bass), Eddie Walker (drums) Snuzz (guitar). The band features R&B based rock. Both play at Legends Thursday. Catfish Jenkins, one of Athens, Ga.'s top up-and-coming bands, will be appear­ ing at the Klondike Cafe tomorrow night in support of their latest album, "Normaltown." In a little over two years, Catfish Jenkins has gained a strong following throughout the Southeast as a result of their tireless touring. They are currently in the midst of a promotional tour which has taken them as far west as Colorado, opening for a variety of acts, including Widespread Panic and Blues Traveler. Aside from being a strong performing band, Catfish Jenkins' sound has been described as melodic, laid-back and South­ ern, with a pop-rock appeal. "Catfish Jenkins is one of the most prom­ ising new bands to come out of Athens," said John Keane, the album's producer. Keane, who has worked closely with R.E.M. and Indigo Girls, employed his unique skill and style to record "Normaltown," giving it a distinctly clean sound. The album, released by Kudzu Records, is named for the section of Athens in which the band lives. This area's inhabitants are an eclectic mix of people- college students, social misfits and artists. "While driving down the streets, Normaltown seems, well, normal. But in reality, if you get out of the car and hang with the locals, Normaltown takes on an entirely new identity. Catfish Jenkins' songs project this same revelation: things are not what they seem," reads a Kudzu press release. Opening for Catfish Jenkins will be Sound of Mine. Showtime is 10 p.m., and admission should be under $5. IV til II Faculty Recital Series showcases baritone soloist Special to the Appalachian Baritone Joseph Amaya will be the featured soloist tonight at 8 p.m. in Rosen Concert Hall. The concert is part of the School of Music's Faculty Recital Series, and admission is free. The program, titled "Passages," deals with stages of a man's life. Childhood is represented by "Four Childhood Fables for Adults" by Irving Fine. The "Young and Restless" stage of a man's life is depicted by two arias from Menotti operas, "Amelia Goes to the Ball" and "Old Maid and the Thief," and "When I think Upon the Maid­ ens" by Michael Head. In the next stage, which he calls "Se­ riously Romantic," Amaya will perform five songs by Richard Strauss. Fatherhood is represented with the "Soliloquy" from Richard Rogers' "Carou­ sel." For perhaps the most serious stage in a man's life, "Marriage," Amaya will pre­ miere "Songs of Matrimony" by School of Music faculty member William Harbinson. Harbinson has written music for poems by Edgar Allan Poe, an eighth century Japanese guard, Tennessee Williams and James Whitcomb Riley. "Old But Still Ro­ mantic" features selections from "Don Quichotte a Dulcinee" by Ravel. Dr. Rodney Reynerson will accompany Amaya on the piano. Amaya joined the School of Music fac­ ulty in 1989. He directs the university's opera workshop and has appeared in more than 30 cities in the United States and Canada as a concert artist and in leading operatic roles.

The weather outside was frightful, but ASU warmed up in the second half, scoring 54 in the last period to put Western Carolina away, 96-74. The game, originally scheduled for Saturday, Feb. 4, was postponed 24 hours because of 01' Man Winter's weekend tan­ trum. That did not distract the Lady Mountaineers. Appalachian's seventh straight win leaves the team with a 15-3 record on the season. Shannon Spencer led all scorers with 16 points as Appalachian State swept Western (6-13,1-7 Southern Conference) on the season. Five other ASU players reached double figures in scoring, and Appalachian used this balanced attack to stay a step ahead the en­ tire afternoon. ASU (7-1 conference) never trailed after Spencer drained a three-pointer to give App a 6-5 advantage. Twenty-two turnovers hounded the visiting team, and the catalyst of ASU's defense was Spencer. The junior guard continually picked Western's pockets in the backcourt, collecting six steals on the day. Hope swelled for Western Carolina late in the second half, when the Catamounts muscled back from a 26-point deficit to within 13, at 78-65, with five min­ utes remaining. The Apps had fallen into foul trouble guards Leigh Jones and Spencer were both playing with four fouls apiece. An over-the-shoulder, no-look shot by WCU forward Pam Owens with 5:02 left in the con­ test disqualified center Andreia Hinton, and allowed Western to complete a three-point play. Appalachian's grip on the lead did not loosen. Down the stretch, Spencer put down six points, includ­ ing four straight free throws, allowing ASU to put the game out of reach with an 18-9 surge. David Willis Reporter Atlantic Coast Conference basketball, only halfway through the 1994-1995 sea­ son, has already been one to remember. Prior to the start of the season, who would have thought that: 1. Clemson would be nationally ranked, after losing its most talented player, Devin Gray, for the rest of the season? 2. Perennial powerhouse Duke has found a new home in the depths of the cellar. 3. Georgia Tech may have finally found the consistency that it has so desperately needed. 4. The Wolfpack has proven, at least to me, that they are finally back. 5. Maryland has, for the first time since Len Bias, returned to national promi­ nence. 6. Wake Forest has the best center in the league. 7. Carolina has found this season's lack of depth much more friendly than last year's incredible wealth on the bench. 8. Virginia has still not found a shot. 9. Finally, Florida State, despite their record, is the least talented team in the conference. As far as memorable games go, I believe four stand above the rest.

The first and sec­ ond students' chests read "D" and "U", and the fourth's was painted with an "E." But the third guy had a ques­ tion mark on his chest. As in, where's (Coach) K? GREAT EXPECTATIONS Poor Pete Gaudet. He had to step up and direct things while Mike Kryzyzewski recovers from a back injury. It's no wonder expe­ rienced, successful coaches in any sport seem to be white-haired, bald, surly, or in constant danger of heart attack (see Bob Knight, Mike Ditka, Dean Smith, Tommy Lasorda ...). Running a program with better than passing success is not as simple as it seems to all of the couch prodigies out here. Do you want proof? Think about Dallas Cowboy coach Barry Switzer. Although the Cowboys fell to the 49ers this year, the specula­ tion that anything Jess than a third straight Super Bowl win would be a failure was, and is, off the mark. "Anybody could come into that situation, with that talent, and guide Dallas to the playoffs," said a lot of fans. The situation in Durham proves that theory wrong. The situ­ ation also reveals Coach K's worth to Duke's program (as if any fur­ ther evidence is even needed, af­ ter the success of the last decade or so). Wins don't come from ex­ cuses. However, the Devils are re­ alizing what champions since time immemorial have known: life at the top is much harder than the journey. Therefore, until Duke ei­ ther gets back on the winning track or grows accustomed to .500 sea­ sons, they will continue to fall be­ low the anticipations of the aver­ age statistic-guzzling fan. SIDE NOTE Keeping in pace with this week's Duke theme: freshman Trajan Langdon was picked in the sixth round of the major league baseball draft last year, out of high school, by the San Diego Padres. M0REDUKIE You hate him, but you know you pay attention when a feature tbout him hits the evening sports news. He's a devil with a pretty face, a man who probably will al­ ways be famous for two very dif­ ferent images: stomping on a Ken­ tucky player's chest in 1992 and throwing .up a prayer to win that same NCAA tournament game. Somehow, Christian Laettner's destiny after Duke ties in with the Blue Devils' 1994-95 tribulations. He was the first player to start in a Final Four in each of his four sea­ sons at Duke, and his high school career was nearly as prosperous, as unbelievable as that sounds. Losing game after game in Minnesota has to be a drastic let­ down after so many wins. It's ob­ vious that Laettner has been frus­ trated since he entered Minneapo­ lis city limits, and in truth, there's not much sympathy for him among anyone but Duke fans. Yet here is where the spec­ ter of Winning hops upon Laettner's back. Only Shaquille and Alonzo went before him in 1992's draft, and he was third in rookie scoring behind those same two men (a feat worth mention­ ing, considering the '92 draft in­ cluded such bombers as Jimmy Jackson and Tom Gugliotta). The Timberwolves still aren't winning, despite a growing pool of talent. Even Donyell Marshall and Isaiah Rider haven't stopped the bleeding. Laettner's outbursts against his teammates and coaches and the media are seen as childish conniptions. He shoves away the smiles and public-friendly atti­ tudes of the Grant Hills and John Salleys. His only concern is the game. This is the mindset of a true gladiator, and despite his reported shortcomings, Minnesota will be glad to have him when he reaches NBA maturity. �Page 12 The Appalachian, Tue Appalachian News, official I niversity News and ai , » » * '*' in each issue mine paper. uasic imormation, inc|U(l of the paper, Basic information, inch,'!"** • •"* description of your program will he included Und',"* -"4**"' must he submitted at least 8 days prior to the issue i r - t 4 ' " copy to David W.

The event kicked off Af­ rican American His­ tory Month at Appa­ lachian State Univer­ sity. Locke's main fo­ cus in her address was society and the media's negative stereotypical portrayal of African-Americans, African-American women and women in general. Examples Locke gave were African-American men being portrayed as savage, oversexed and animalistic and black women being viewed as welfare queens. Locke specifically spoke of blacks and women being shown stereotypically in advertising. An example given was the stereotype that all African-Americans have "rhythm." She then cited the example that African-Americans were shown dancing in a recent McDonald's advertisement. "How many of us dance as we order a Big Mac?" said Locke. She also compared the U.S. in the 1890's to the U.S. of 1995. "In 1995, the U.S. is neither kinder in racial or social relations...new insensitiv­ ity is fostering in a hostile environ­ ment," she said. After her lec­ ture, Locke en­ gaged the audi­ ence in a question and answer ses­ sion. One woman asked, "How should AfricanAmerican females project themselves to avoid stereotypes?" 'There's not much you can do," Locke answered. "Prejudice and racism is the other person's problem. Recognize it when you see it, call it and keep going." Locke also responded to a student's concern about dealing with her own feel­ ings of racism. Locke said racism is a learned behavior and underlying racism How many of us dance when we order a Big Mac?

(Photo by Rhett Butler) See Locke Page 2 Women stage Donations flow through voluntary 'knob' fund breast protest Manya Brachear in bar & grille News Editor Tiffany Lohman Assistant News Editor Approximately eight to ten women took their shirts off in protest of a sign at Charlie Horse, a restaurant and bar lo­ cated in New Market Center. Shirts worn by the wait staff and a sign in the establishment that read, "Guys - No shirt, No service. Girls - No shirt, Free "beer," prompted the protest. According to Samantha Smith, a stu­ dent who videotaped the event but did not remove her shirt, said at about 4:30 p.m. last Thursday, the group of women and a few men entered Charlie Horse. The group ordered a round of beers and six women removed their shirts. The women asked that the sign be taken down and that the wait staff change their shirts. Management took the sign down and by that evening, the wait staff had changed their shirts. "The whole incident lasted about 15 minutes and we finished our beers, tipped our waitress and left," said Smith. "It just takes women standing up for them­ selves." Bud Stewart, owner and manager of Charlie Horse said no one ever asked him to take the sign down and therefore he didn't realize it was offensive. "It (the sign) was meant as a joke and some people took it as offensive," Stewart said. "Misogyny and sexism is not a joke," one participant who wished to remain anonymous said. "We're tired of hearing jokes about our bodies and we're offended that our breasts are worth more than our money," she said. The women wished to remain anony­ mous because they felt the issue applied to all women and that their names were irrelevant. They were willing to be videotaped for the purpose of raising awareness within the National Organization for Women, the group for which Smith intems' see Women page 3 Although the balance of the Student Government Association/Howard's Knob endowment fund appeared to be zero on Monday, checks had been received and were being processed, according to Verdola Cook, director of the Appalachian Foun­ dation in the University Advancement of­ fice. Cook said Wednesday she had seen three or four checks for undisclosed amounts since and estimated the total to be $50. Robert Snead, vice chancellor for uni­ versity advancement, explained there was at least a seven to ten day waiting period for each check to be processed. Cook said even after the money is processed, the updated account balance only comes out at the end of the month accounting period. All checks collected in January will not show up on the balance until the end of February. Checks received after today will not show up until late March. "We're certainly not doing anything with the money except recording it prop­ erly," Cook said. The urgency of finding out the ac­ count balance came up when advocates of the Appalachian Community and Envi- We established the account for those generally concerned with the issue but who did not want to do it through a student fee. ronmental Stewardship accused oppo­ nents of stating untruthfully they had de­ posited money in the account. Student Government President J.D. Adams said he delivered a check Monday morning while Vice President Jane Mclntyre reported her family had sent in a check last week. The endowment was established Jan. 9 at the request of Adams, who wrote a letter to Vice Chancellor Gregory Blimling. "I thought we needed to make a com­ mitment to alternative transportation on property the university owned. We needed to do so with more vigor," Adams said. "We established the account for those gen­ erally concerned with the issue but who did not want to do it through a student fee." The fund was not established until January because the time had simply never been right. Adams said the idea for a voluntary fund had been brought up over the summer as a compromise to the ACES proposal. But when the proposal was introduced, the legal issues were over­ come and the referendum was established, Winter Break just seemed to be the right time. "No one from the Vote Yes was inter­ ested in doing this," Adams said. Adams said he was not sure where the money would go if not enough was col­ lected to donate to alternative transpor- See Donations Page 4 Whether they voted "yes" or "no", students definitely made their appearance at the polls Wednesday to launch a twoday referendum on the Appalachian Community and Environmental Stewardship.

'There is no risk from the pro­ posed treatment. However, not treating the problem could result in serious damage to the local tree population," said Lloyd Garcia, entomologist for the North Caro­ lina Plant Protection Agency. The gypsy moth infestation in Boone could be detrimental be­ cause of the effects it could have on the Christmas tree industry, according to Garcia. Trees har­ vested from an infested area have been refused by other states in the past. Rob Hunt, entomologist for the North Carolina Forestry Ser­ vice, was also on hand to clarify misconceptions about the com­ pounds and any possible environ­ mental repercussions. "It's not only the Christmas tree industry that could suffer; it's the aesthetic value. These moths could cause millions of dollars in tree damage," said Hunt. The treatment would include aerial application of Bacillus Thuringienses or BT, and a ground application in certain areas of Diflubenzuron. BT is a naturally occurring bacterial agent that has no effect on human beings, said Garcia. Spraying would occur in the early morning hours, the gypsy moth's normal feeding time. The gypsy moth was brought to the U.S. in 1869 to Massachu­ setts for experimentation. A colony escaped and spread throughout the nation. The moth's principal food is the white oak tree of which a single gypsy moth lar­ vae can eat to a square foot of leaf material a day.

Our Opinion... Empower Parking lot unsafe for students Mike Cleaves Assistant Editorials Editor Appalachian's newest parking lot at the old Winn Dixie on Hwy. 421 is a hazard to all students who are sentenced to park there. It is dangerous for students to park at a place that does not offer safe access. Though the parking debate is one that will probably never be resolved, we feel that this particular situation is one that should be looked at more closely. The Williams Parking Lot is lo­ cated off Rivers St. and also has an en­ trance on Hwy 421. This entrance, how­ ever is closed to all traffic, even those cars that are registered to park in the lot. This leaves the one and only entrance on Riv­ ers St. a dark, curvy and heavily travelled road. "Empower." This word has been around for quite a while. However, it is currently riding an unprecedented wave of popularity. Having emerged from the drifting mists of the ancient pre-Gulf War era, it has taken its place as the buzzword for all of those miserable victims of wrong-do­ ing and fate - ourselves. "Empower" is a verb which means to provide with that cheap, heady intoxicant, "power." "Power" has a whole slew of definitions in the New World Dictionary ranging from "national might" to "the abil­ ity to do work." Of particular interest is definition number four, "the ability to con­ trol others." As members of a free society, we need to be reasonable in deciding exactly how much controlling of each other we are going to do. With that in mind, it is worth noting that there are very few The Pop 105 Appalcart route is the only route that services the Williams lot and it only goes twice an hour. There also is no shelter where the bus is supposed to pick up students. There is not even a street light to stand under. If you are lucky enough to survive the wait, there is still no guarantee that the bus will stop, pro­ vided that the bus driver can see you standing in the dark. If you give up on the bus and de­ cide to walk or ride your bike, good luck! There is no sidewalk or lighted walkway. There is, however, a narrow path. It is only wide enough for one person and barely rideable by bike. There is even one section where you are trapped between the oncoming traffic and a guardrail." Students seem to have always got­ ten the short end of the stick when it comes to parking on campus. As usual, the only logical option is not to depend on the university for a safe alternative. This is sad, but very true. The only way of insuring safe travel to and from your car in the Williams lot is to hitch a ride with a friend or call a taxi. The university has a responsibil­ ity to protect students. If this university intends to keep students parking in the Williams Lot, they need to have security lights installed and an AppalCart shelter. In addition, the AppalCart needs to make trips to the lot more frequently. If the uni­ versity makes the lot safe and convenient, students will have one less reason to gripe about parking at ASU.

It's no secret that power is both addictive and corruptive. Just ask King Midas. Or Boris Yeltsin. And yet, as a people, we are all clamoring to become "empowered." People (who, after all, are all basically the same) are happy to be clumped into a myriad of groups and told that they should do everything that they can to "empower" their particular group. That is, every clan is scrambling to achieve hegemony over all of the other fractious tribes in the world, such as the minority known as "you and me."

David Wainer Aside from the blatant hypocrisy Jennifer Seamon mentioned here, I have to wonder if the Editorial Department: 262-6233 or 3104 Advertising Department 262-2157 Speaker has thought this through, or if he is simply taking after his mother's side of the family and just popping off at the mouth. The conservatives have claimed for many years that the federal govern­ ment has no right to federally subsidize television and radio services, especially when there is such an alleged slant to the programs run on these stations. The ac­ cusation is that it's state-run propaganda, which only caters to an elite group of people while every­ one pays for the services with their taxes. The assumption here is that only a select few take advantage of pub­ lic radio and television, which is hardly true. Public television is watched by people in every section of the country and from every possible combination of back­ grounds, from the blue-collared steel worker to the farmer in Kansas. Many of these people also contribute money to help support their local stations. Along with this, the numerous services that these public stations provide would be lost to the entire country, and especially rural areas, if funding was sus­ pended.

To the Editor: Many numbers have been provided for the total cost of the Alternative Transportation Plan for Boone and what share the ASU students could expect to pay over time if ACES passes. As director of the project, I pro­ vide the following figures which I know for fact as I am writing the final report for the project: The total cost for all pedestrian ad bike improvements for Boone is at the highest $8.6 million; the NC Department of Transporta­ tion will be asked to provide a significant proportion of this amount—I would estimate about $600,000 to $800,000 will be forthcoming from that source in the next 3-5 years and more later; the town of Boone has allocated over $100,000 this year alone and should continue at about this level; finally, I would estimate that over the life of the construction, ASU stu­ dents will provide $2-3 million which would be raised in the next 25 years with ACES. Harvard G. Ayers Antropology Professor Gibbs Smith ASU Box 07359 Science students need alternative to dissection To the Editor: Be aware... that Appala­ chian State has a mandatory dis­ section policy. Why be alarmed? Because not even the nation's leading medical schools (Yale, Stanford, Georgetown, etc.) still hold such antiquated policies. This means students who are mor­ ally opposed to dissection have no alternatives. Please fight for students to have a choice! It will only take a minute of your time to call the office of Jeffrey Butts, Biology Department science because of the mandatory policy, specify that. If you don't speak to him personally, please leave a message. chairperson, to let him know that you are in favor of alternatives to dissection being offered to stu­ dents at Appalachian State. If you were one of the ones who chose to take another This is not a move to stop dissection. It is targeting the intro courses (1101-1102) that fill a sci­ ence requirement for many nonscience majors. It is a movement to offer alternatives to those stu- dents who would take the oppor­ tunity to learn "Introduction to Life Sciences" while actually sav­ ing lives. "...students who are morally opposed to dissection have no alternatives. Please fight for students to have a choice." There are several reasons why alternatives need to be of­ fered: Over one half of the stu­ dents polled in last semester's class said they would be in support of alternatives but the department would not listen. Accurate computer simu­ lations can be used over and over. They involve less mess and less expense in the long run. There are also a number of environmental reasons why Appalachian should offer alterna­ tives, such as dumping all of the toxic-embalmed carcasses. Frog depletion in the wild (which is where many of the frogs are com­ ing from, despite what you may hear) has caused severe spread of mosquito carrier diseases. The bottom line is that it is wasting life. Penny Godbald ASU Box 13045 breasts continued from page 6 apply that radical energy to a cause which might call for it. The restaurant's manage­ ment said he would have gladly taken the sign down if they had asked. So why didn't they? Well, they might not have gotten free beer to toast the success of their radical mission. And that, ladies, is where I question your inten­ tions. You say you're tired of be­ ing paid to do sexual favors for men. Sounds like you volun­ teered. The women wished to re­ main anonymous, yet another place I question the good inten­ tions of this radical deed. They claimed they did not want to as­ sign their names to an issue which affects all women. That's very noble. But there is such a thing as accountability. With account­ ability comes credibility - some­ thing thisprotest did not have. As a reporter who has cov­ ered both sides of a sexual harass­ ment accusation and seen how both sides have been hurt by the accusation, I believe accountabil­ ity is something we always seem to leave out in instances such as this. Similar to the way sexual harassment complaints are handled on this campus, the women (and men) who make the accusations are not held account­ able. They are not encouraged to communicate to the accused party that their behavior or actions are offensive. Instead, they are en­ couraged to file an anonymous complaint with no accountability and little credibility. For another example of an activist movement on campus, take a look at probably the most famous activist moevemnt on campus cur­ rently - the infamous Appalachian Community and Environmental Stewardship fee. No matter how you stand on the issue, one thing is clear: both opponents have placed less importance on their names than their cause. In other words they don't care how their names are thrown around, as long as their cause succeeds. SGA President J.D. Adams proved my point perfectly when he jokingly suggested printing up bumper stickers to read "Don't Blame Me I didn't vote for J.D. Adams" in order to fund Howard's Knob and alternative transporta­ tion. He said, "My name is not worth that much." That's someone who be­ lieves in what he is fighting for. And that is someone who is will­ ing to be held accountable and doesn't care so much to protect his name as he does to protect his cause. That is what you should have kept in mind before you re- fused to reveal you identity. Does your name mean that much to you? Does your cuase mean that little? As a woman who holds activists, especially activists who demand respect for our gender, in high regard, I applauded the ef­ forts of this demonstration when I first heard about it. But that was until I realized I would never find out who participated. I also did not realize the restaurant management did not even have a chance to be treated with a degree of respect. He was never even asked to take the sign down. Now, I look down upon the actions that took place in the Charlie Horse restaurant. Come to think of it, I think I'll go buy one of those t-shirts and wear it proudly. Because I am a woman and I recognize a joke when I see it. �APPALACHIAN STAT^ UNIVERSITY ftQSl/tsVGL4/& bed isstniMW (d| !?v Tq V ?G n^': 1 L .

Kimabll, assistant professor of anthropolgy at Appalachian tate University and director of the ASU Laboratories of Arlaeological Science, is using his skills to help colleagues in ussia learn more about our common early ancestors. Kimball has pioneered a new technique: using an atomic >rce microscope to analyze the wear patterns on Stone Age >ols.

Working in collaboration with Dr. Patricia Allen and her tudents in Appalachian's department of physics and asonomy, Kimball is able to create three-dimensional, digized images of wear patterns on flint tools. The interdisciplinary team will use the high-tech microcope to analyze materials recovered from Weasal Cave in lorth Ossetian, Russia. Kimball recently visited the cave being excavated by tazim Hidjrati of North Ossetian State University and calls a "significant archaeological treasure." The cave contains layer upon layer of remains from Paleithic to Medieval times, which range from 100,000 B.C. to •D. 1000.

Many students feel a sudden tightness in the chest when they even think of fil­ ing their taxes. However, this does not have to be the case. Filling out tax forms is not as difficult as one may initially think. There are sev­ eral options; one of which is sure to be appealing to even the most timid tax­ payer. For Federal taxes, most students can use the 1040 EZ form. The 1040 EZ is one of the most straight-forward and easy-to-use documents ever printed by the United States government. The directions are easy to follow if you have even a rudimentary grasp of math and reading. A calculator and a pencil, and you are on your way. According to Dr. Rebecca Kaenzig, as­ sociate professor of accounting here at Appalachian said, "State returns often •'rofessor's old wodd love tided by new age technology ecial to the Appalachian flip A taxing situation, Your social security number * * ,wn< r*,u,n- P™< spouse s nam# (Vet. m*i«. last) See inatructiona on beck end in Form 1040BZ booklet. election . i 1545-0675 CBy, team or peat office, state and ZIP coda, a pm tee, • Presidential -0# r:;cS, s,„„ Income Tax Return for Single and Joint Filers With No Dependents I Use the I IRS label I please print. V ; - ?JI universities discussed, among other things, the possibility of an exchange between archaeologists. "They have a very active program there," Kimball said. Kimball traveled to Russia this fall where he spent two weeks with Hidjrati, vice-director of NOSU's Institute of Fun­ damental Researches. "They need specialists to help date the geological con­ texts, and to analyze the animal bones, the function of stone tools, cave sediments and other recovered materials," Kimball said. Kimball's specialty is determining the function of Pale­ olithic tools. Ironically, the original technique used to deter­ mine stone tool function was pioneered by Russian archae­ ologist Sergei Semenov in the 1930s. Looking at waste products from the manufacture of stone tools and the way the tools were used can help archaeolo­ gists determine how human intelligence developed, Kimball said. Kimball recently discovered microwear polish on one Middle Paleolithic tool that may prove Neanderthals or early Homo Sapiens in that region hafted the stone point to wood or bone for a handle. Attaching the flint tool to a handle and then transporting it some distance to a new cave site is an important observation, Kimball said, because it indicates planning or forethought on the part of these people. "Planning, anticipating future needs is one of the charac­ teristics of human intelligence," Kimball said. "How did that evolve over time?" "By looking at large collections (of stone tools) we can learn about early adaptive systems, planning and hunting see New World page 11 cause the most problems." To fill out state forms, you must first have completely filled out federal forms. Many of the questions on the state returns refer to answers you put on the federal forms. However, even the state tax forms should not offer any problems that can­ not be overcome with a little thought and perhaps a bit of patience. Kaenzig said the Beta Alpha Psi group in the Accounting Department will fill out students' tax forms free beginning in March. Students may bring their taxes to the public library for help. Another option is to file taxes electroni­ cally. Electronic filing, according to the IRS, is faster, safer and more accurate than filing manually. "All individual income tax returns and the most commonly used forms can be filed electronically," according to the TeleTax operator provided by the IRS. Electronic filing allows for filers to re­ ceive refunds within 21days. And even if you are not due a refund, you may still file electronically, as long as you pay by April 17. If all else fails, and you simply do not want the hassle of filling out your own tax forms, there is always the trusty H & R Block team. This year, H 8c R Block is located in New Market Center next to Mama Loo's. Carolyn Banzhaf of H 8c R Block said that they are happy to help students out. However, there is a fee. H 8c R Block provides a service called Rapid Refund, in which you will get your refund within two to three days. How­ ever, the IRS is no longer guaranteeing this service, as it is treated as a bank loan. Through Rapid Refund, you can either fill out your own taxes and have H 8c R Block file them for you, or you can have them fill out and file your returns. Once the form has been filed, if the IRS approves it, a bank then issues the amount of your refund. Once the IRS processes your form, the money is sent to the bank, to cover the cost of the "loan" the bank made to you. Both federal and state taxes can be filed electronically or by Rapid Refund. "Sometimes, though," points out Banzhaf, "due to the fee for filing this way, it's not really advantageous to do a Rapid Refund if you're not getting back a lot of money." Remember, the deadline for filing is Monday, April 17. But why put off until tomorrow what you can do today? Espe­ cially if you are due a refund! Accident turned into "Great Adventure" for ASU student Melanie Zublionis Reporter January 15,1995 marked the one-year anniversary of Holly Whitaker's near-fa­ tal sledding accident. On Saturday afternoon, Jan. 15, 1994, Whitaker was sledding with several of her friends at Horn in the West, when her sled hit a bump causing her to fly head - first into a tree. Whitaker was knocked unconscious. Blood was coming out of her nose and ears; an indication that something had happened to her brain. Someone called an ambulance, and Whitaker was rushed to Boone Medical Center, but was later transferred by am­ bulance to North Carolina Baptist Hospi­ tal in Winston-Salem because Boone Medical Center has no neuro-surgery fa­ cility nor neural surgeons. Upon arrival at Baptist Hospital, Whitaker was given morphine for her pain. She was also given I.V drugs for nine days straight to put her into a threeweek drug-induced coma helping to re­ duce the swelling of her brain. Whitaker's head injury was extremely serious. Approximately 25 percent of her brain was bruised, her eyes were black, and she had pneumonia. "Healthy inner-cranial pressure (ICP) is between seven and nine," said Whitaker. "When ICP reaches 20 it is critical and calls for emergency surgery. My ICP was 64; it was that critical. I would be with God right now, but He kept me alive for a rea­ son." On Sunday, Jan. 16, Whitaker had sur­ gery at 10 a.m. and again at 7 p.m. Her hair was shaved off from the back of her ears forward. The surgeons made an in­ cision in her scalp and skull at the line where her hair was shaved off. They took out a blood clot on the left side of her head to allow oxygen to get to the brain. On the right side they took out the an­ terior portion of her right temporal lobe. They also took away part of her skull to facilitate brain swelling. Her scalp was then stapled back together. Whitaker was at Baptist Hospital until Feb. 21, 1994 when she was transferred to the Charlotte Institute of Rehabilitation. There she underwent physical rehabili­ tation to learn to walk again. In addition, she went through occupational therapy for functional living and speech therapy for the improvement of brain functions. While Whitaker was hospitalized, her friends and many organizations pulled together to raise financial support. Doc Watson and the Cockman Family gave a benefit concert. The Baptist Stu­ dent Union of ASU held a dance in which all the profits were given to Whitaker's family. Churches collected love offerings and gave tremendous prayer support.

A year later, Holly Whitaker is 100 percent physically recovered. She says that she has recovered 200 percent spiritually, though, because "my attitude about day-to-day life and strength is different." "I know and love God more than I used to," said Whitaker.

After averaging 14 points per game this season, Cook came back from his suspension to score only 5 Saturday against VMI. "At the beginning of the year I was happy with my performance, but since I've been suspended the team has changed. I'm just trying to fit in now," he said. His performance in Mon­ day night's win against Western Carolina was a good sign, as he scored 9 points and pulled down 7 rebounds.

Mike Orris: ASU's little big man David Willis Reporter Mike Orris may be the small­ est wresder on the team, but in his senior year at ASU, he is an un­ stoppable force. Orris began wresding at the age of she. By the time he gradu­ ated from high school, he was a two-time state champion, missing out on a third tide his senior year due to illness. Since his arrival at ASU, Or­ ris has come a long way. His fresh­ man and sophomore year he had a combined record of 44 wins and 22 losses, recording 11 pins. In his junior year, Orris improved to 22- 8 and finished second in the con­ ference tournament, but his senior year has definitely been his best. Orris' record this year is 17-4 with five pins and an impressive win over the fifth ranked wresder in the nation from Syracuse. With only three meets re­ maining until the Southern Con­ ference Tournament, Orris is the favorite to win his weight class and move on to compete in the nation­ als. "I feel that I should win the conference tide and move on to the national tournament," said Or­ ris.

After graduation, Orris in­ tends to move back to his home­ town of Herndon, Va. to try to be­ gin a career. "I just hope that I can get my foot in the door somewhere," said Orris. "Ideally I would like to begin coaching sometime after I get settled. I feel that I have learned a lot through wrestling and I would love to be able to pass that on."

(Photo by Shane Richardson) State, TPL bound by appraised value Manya Brachear News Editor SGA hopes for high turnout Appalachian Staff Reports Neither negotiators from the Trust for Public Land (TPL) nor from the uni­ versity-based ACES campaign have ex­ pressed serious concern over the ap­ praisal value of the prospective pur­ chase of land on Howard's Knob, de­ spite the fact that both organizations cannot acquire land above the fair mar­ ket value. Both Dale Allen, a TPL associate from the southeast region in Tallahas­ see, Fla. and ACES crusader Hunter Schofield have said negotiations have been focused more on bringing down the asking price of landowner Monte Green and less on the appraised value. TPL commissioned the appraisal (s) because the organization cannot pur­ chase land for more than its appraised value, said Ralph Benson, chief operat­ ing manager of TPEs national headquar­ ters in San Francisco, Calif. Although few exceptions have been made in the past, Benson said an honest attempt must be made to purchase below fair market value. In previous interviews, both Allen and Schofield have stated that the ap­ praisals were not their primary concern. The land students would lease and acquire if ACES is implemented has a current appraised value of $313,000, despite an earlier appraisal of $210,000. TPL received a preliminary ap­ praisal of $210,000 in December 1993. Unsatisfied with that appraisal, TPL ordered a final appraisal which was completed three months after the origi­ nal. This time the land was appraised at $313,000. Schofield said he could only imag­ ine TPL would try to keep the appraisal as low as possible. Allen said they did not influence the appraisal process in any way. "We let the professionals do their work," Allen said. Allen said the December appraisal was a preliminary draft subject to re- The Alternative Transportation Pro­ gram students would fund if ACES is en­ acted would cost between $6 and $8.6 million to fund, according to estimates provided by Dr. Harvard Ayers, anthropol­ ogy professor and project director for the program. The figures vary because, according to the ACES proposal, the Student Gov­ ernment Association would determine what specific parts of the program would be funded with ACES fee revenue. "This is pie in the sky and not all will be built," said Ayers. "Also many of these improvements can be made for less than the estimates so, the $8.6 million is a top dollar figure." see Appraisal page 3 see Transportation page 3 Amidst accusations and misinfor­ mation, voting on the Appalachian Community and Environmental Stew­ ardship (ACES) referendum begins to­ morrow and will last until Thursday. The results of the referendum will express to the administration the stu­ dents' thoughts about ACES. ACES is a proposal that would ask students to pay $10 per semester to fund alternative transportation and the pur­ chase of Howard's Knob or transfer the fee to Belk Library. The proposal has come under fire for several reasons: setting an unnec­ essary precedent, providing a needless option of diversion to the library, and mandating an involuntary fee that some students may not afford. ACES oppo­ nents believe a university endowment established by the Student Government Association and the Appalachian Founda­ tion should serve the purpose. Opposition to the appraisal has also come under fire for misleading students. Proponents of ACES say the proposal would empower students to have a voice as to where their money is spent. "Students shouldn't be fooled, we are either going to save Howard'sKnob or lose it, we're either going to build bikelanes or we won't, there are no other alterna­ tives," said Hunter Schofield, co-author of the ACES proposal. Mary Reichel, university librarian, said the money would be used to improve books and audio-visual resources prima­ rily for undergraduates. She said periodi­ cals would be less likely to be purchased since money would fluctuate from year to year. As for the endowment fund, no money had been deposited into the ac­ count as of Monday. The account was es­ tablished two and half weeks ago un­ der the care of Vice Chancellor for Uni­ versity Advancement James Strom. SGA President J.D. Adams said in a debate last Tuesday he had contributed money as well as Vice President Jane Mclntyre. According to Sean Coggin, Student Government Association rules commit­ tee chairman, booths will be set up between 10 a.m. and 5 p.m. in Welborn Cafeteria to collect votes. CSIL Director Dino DiBernardi said all undergraduate and graduate stu­ dents are eligible to vote and a valid student ID is required. SGA is asking students who are eli­ gible to vote make a choice. Coggin said, "Regardless of whether you are for or against please get out and vote. The referendum won't mean anything if we don't have a representative stu­ dent turn-out."

Although the recreational op­ portunities of those areas were not comparable, Green's land was found to have a better view.

Although Jacobs would not comment even on the general pro­ cedure of a land appraisal, Martitia Mortimer, managing partner for be a chance for the student body to learn more about African Ameri­ can history. "There is very little history in the history books about African Americans," said Stewart.

"My challenge is for every stu­ dent to Find out something new," said Stewart. Stewart hopes to continue to have quality African American pro­ gramming year-round. Stewart said, "Our history is not only worth 28 days." Elliott & Co. Appraisers of Boone said the reevaluation process is a common practice and the value could have changed due to sales in the area.

Adams and the "Vote No" campaign during last Tuesday's de­ bate includes the alternative trans­ portation program for Boone, Blowing Rock and areas in the county. Hunter Schofield, leading ACES supporter and Boone Town Council member, said the alterna­ tive transportation program cov­ ered by ACES only includes Boone projects. Schofield also said that the $25 million figure did not take into account contributions from the Boone Town Council, Blowing Rock and the Department of Trans­ portation (DOT). Because of this, he said that students would pay between $6 and $8 million. Welborn Cafeteria Lobby 10am - 5pm According to Schofield, Boone has allocated $120,000 for fiscal year 1994-95 for sidewalk and greenway improvements. Chris May, Blowing Rock Town Manager said Blowing Rock has allocated $10,000 to a sidewalk project. Schofield said the DOT would contribute between $250,000 and $300,000 in 1997. David King, deputy secretary for transit rail and aviation (which also includes alternative transpor­ tation), said bicycling and pedes­ trian plans have been submitted through a hearing process. An ac­ tual number for the contribution will be released in the annual Transportation Improvement Plan this summer. The maximum con­ tribution for a bicycling project is $300,000.

The computer system now be­ ing used is not equipped to handle the nutritional value of all recipes. Dubberly said this information would have to be handwritten on the recipes.

Companies in for the bidding include: CBORD, UNIQUEST and FOOD CUTTER. "We invited companies to come in and test their products," Dubberly said. Companies then placed their bids and were sent to Raleigh. If all goes well, the new com­ puter system will be installed within the next year or shortly af­ ter. Over 2000 items and 1600 recipes will need to be pro­ grammed in to the computer. "All the details are not worked out," Dubberly said. "We plan to use a group of stu­ dent volunteers through the Stu­ dent Government Association to come up with a procedure to pro­ mote the nutritional information," he added.

As soon as I begin to decline their prompt to sign up, I have lost my chance at being pals. I hardly have the words, "No thank you, I already have three credit cards," formed on my lips when the representa­ tive looks away in disgust like I have just spit on her mother. ' t I finally snapped. I knew before it happened as I entered Plemmons Stu­ dent Union I would be asked to sign up for a card of some sort. I just couldn't say no again. I now have a collegiate phone card. Channel surfing a week ago, I came upon the first full day of coverage of the O.J. Simpson trial. Instead of the usual daytime TV fodder, I found Simpson's hollow gaze staring at slides of his former wife's dead body. In the past few years the United States has experienced a barrage of almost bizarre media cases. The Menendez brothers, Jeffrey Dahmer, Amy Fisher, and Susan Smith have paved the way for what has been called the biggest murder case in history... O.J.! It is impossible, in a na­ tion where 98 percent of ail homes have televisions, not to take advantage of that media to exploit such cases to garner rat­ ings. Why are we so enthralled by this case? This is the first really hyped case that has every juicy element that this coun­ try wants. No longer will we depend on soap operas and Ricki Lake to provide us with flashy, trashy TV We've got the O.J. case and it fills all our needs in a big way. First, it's got racial elements.

Therefore, we shouldn't let the ACES question completely dominate this organi­ zation. In her letter, Ms. Martin said that she is committed. I would like to ask her a question of my own. Does your commitment truly lie with the student government, or is it solely invested in legisla­ tion that will not benefit the gen­ eral welfare of the student body, such as ACES?

Since the pro­ posal is a student initiative, it is not an issue on which the library would take a position.

Vazquez Reporter John Lane Assistant Features Editor Last year, "On The Mountain," an Appalachian Heritage Festival, was held in a one week period. This year, Amy Barr, the event coordinator, has decided to spread it over the course of the year in hopes of providing more events and a better turn­ out. One event was "Family Treasures," which was held Saturday night. "Family Treasures" was a talent show featuring members of ASU's faculty and staff. The focus of the talents dealt with traditional Appalachian Re­ gion activities. The talents displayed were clogging and differ­ ent forms of traditional music, but the entertain­ ers also provided history and humor. "My goal is to own and play all the regional in­ struments," said John Peterson who displayed his talents on the banjo and dulcimer. Peterson is the Director of Educational Services at ASU's Cultural Museum. As such, he provided history on the in­ struments and songs he played. Tom Whyte, who works in the Anthropology De­ partment and plays harmonica, brought his fac­ ulty band as well. His band included a stand-up bass, played by Tom Page who is an Education Pro­ fessor; Budd Glenn, who played guitar and man­ dolin and is a chemistry professor; and Mike McCormick, an accounting student, who played guitar. Though Whyte's band performed traditional tragic music of the 1880s and '90s, they also added some 1990s humor in an original tune based on John and Lorena Bobbit, entitled "Loreena." Whyte's idea came from a NOW meeting's limer­ ick contest on the subject to which he wrote, "Loreena, took off my weena, never seen a woman any meena." Bob McCormick and Tom Whyte perform traditional music at Saturday's open mike show. (photo by Rhett Butler) Ed Midgett and Terry Shure, both from the Art Department, spiced things up from the norm of mountain music by playing more modern blues on guitar. Together they performed songs from Ray Charles to the Grateful Dead. From the College of Business, Connie Cook brought her family along to perform Bluegrass. Her husband Jake played guitar and fiddle, and her sons, Matthew and Casey, both students at Watauga High School, played guitar. Connie played the stand-up bass and sang on the traditional tune "My Kentucky Girl." "We hope this can happen again, it's been a lot of fun, and we've met a jot of wonderful people," Jake said. The Cook Family bluegrass band have been performing together for four years and have recorded an album. The High Country Cloggers started the show, and many of the young doggers were children of faculty and staff. The two dance groups in the organization demonstrated a traditional Appalachian dance form in clog­ ging. To try to improve attendance, other than simply spreading out the event dates, Barr hopes to get extra push from the performing faculty and staff. "The On The Mountain series is full of wonderful music and wonderful people," said Barr, "but we have a hard time attracting students." She feels that students don't think this kind of entertainment appeals to their taste, but it is actually entertaining to all.

They have joined forces with Nat Seeley on drums and Dom Richards on bass to form The Caboose. The band has worked hard to establish themselves nationwide, and have played at over 70 colleges and universities, build­ ing an ever-increasing following. The Caboose comes from the Northern Virginia/Washington D.C. area, and de­ scribes its sound as a mix of rock, jazz, folk, funk, and reggae. see Month page 10 The Broyhill Music Center's Rosen Con­ cert Hall was the site of two outstanding performances last week, proving there is a rich spectrum of musical styles to be found on this university's campus. Appalachian State University's School of Music presented a faculty recital Thurs­ day evening. It featured Jon Beebe's bas­ soon and the premiere performance of Dr. Scott R. Meister's composition, 'Three Makamat." The 56th program of the 1994-95 sea­ son began with a performance by a quar­ tet comprised of Glenn Muegel (violin), Heather Ashbridge (viola), Kenneth Lurie (violoncello), and Jon Beebe (bassoon). The piece, a Francois Devienne composi­ tion written in the 19th century, sounded very classical. After explaining his enthusiasm for premiering a musical work before an audi­ ence, Dr. Beebe, accompanied by Robert -Falvo (percussion), performed "Three Makamat." This composition by Dr. Scott Meister, a professor at Appalachian's School of Mu­ sic, was styled using Arabic scales, hence its unconventional structure and sound. Each part of it is named after the "makamat," or mode, in which it was writ­ ten. "Nawa Athar," the first, exhibited a recognizable Middle Eastern quality. The second mode, "Nakriz," went much further out than the first with Falvo play­ ing a variety of instruments using unusual techniques, such as muffling a snare drum with a brown paper bag and stroking cym­ bals with a bow. "Concertino," written in 1962 by Jurriaan Andriessen, concluded the re­ cital. It was conducted by William A. Gora and performed by members of the Appa­ lachian State University Wind Ensemble and, of course, Dr. Jon Beebe. The way in which the wind ensemble responded to Beebe's bassoon and viceversa made the piece a fitting conclusion to the evening. Friday night's concert involved a more contemporary musical style without los­ ing any of the previous evening's vigor and richness. The Frank Kimbrough Jazz Trio, sharply dressed for the occasion, took the stage calmly and intently. Kimbrough's piano commenced to break it in with Miles Davis' "Solar." It was soon joined by Ron Brendle's cool bass and Rick Dilling's crisp drums, as the trio confidently began the evening's journey. Having asserted that they could flow with ease, this being their first perfor­ mance together in about a year, The Frank Kimbrough Trio headed straight into their second number, Andrew Hill's 'Tripping." "I admire [Andrew Hill] artistically as well as philosophically," said Kimbrough afterwards, when asked who influenced his musical philosophy the most. About a dozen exciting tunes followed, including awesome renditions of Thelonious Monk's, "Ba-lue Bolivar Balues-are," and John Coltrane's "Giant Steps." The crowd responded favorably and often during the set, seemingly will­ ing to follow wherever it took them. Frank Kimbrough's consistent display of range, speed and strength greatly inspired the audience, which included Chancellor Borkowski. This musical elation culminated with Kimbrough's melancholly and elegant "solo" encore.

Freshman Tate found her stride with just under nine minutes remaining in the game, when ASU was trailing, 53-48. The reserve center led a 23-6 Appalachian spurt that lasted until the 3:29 mark, scor­ ing three straight field goals to spark the run. The Mountaineers would not give up the advantage, and for Georgia Southern (8-9,4-2 conference), time simply ran out. For Appalachian State, the win was the fifth in a row, improving the team's record to 13-3 overall and 5-1 in the South­ ern Conference, good for second place just behind East Tennessee State, which ASU defeated Jan. 23. Despite a 14-point first half by sophomore Artosalo, The Lady Eagles forged ahead 10-9, on a jump shot by GSU's Telly Hall and keeping the lead until early in the second half. Georgia South­ ern guard Janice Johnson matched Artosald's opening-half outburst with 14 points, on her way to a game-high of 22. The Apps, as usual, relied on bal­ anced scoring and team defense to get the job done. Starting center Andreia Hinton put down 13 points and claimed seven re­ bounds, while Beth Kilby returned to form after a scoreless outing versus East Ten­ nessee State. Kilby scored 13, including two-for-six from the three-point range. A key to the game may have been the Lady Eagles' ball handling. Georgia Southern turned the ball over 21 times, and Johnson and forward Andrea Autrey took 37 of the Eagles' 69 shots. GSU also started out with a hot hand, shooting 55 percent from the field in the first. But a lackluster nine of 40 effort in the second, compared to Appalachian's steady shoot­ ing, hurt Southern's cause at crunch time.

Florida State running back The Appalachian men's basketball team had taken major steps forward over the last week with a win versus The Cita­ del and by playing Davidson close on the road. When Virginia Military came into Varsity Gym Saturday sporting an 0-4 con­ ference record, the game was a good op­ portunity for the squad to continue this new found success. However, it was not to be as the Keydets escaped with an 8985 win. The loss knocked the Mountaineers to 1-4 in the Southern Conference and 4-13 for the season. The Mountaineers held their own in the opening minutes by going to Chad McClendon early and often. The smaller VMI post players could not stop McClendon as he connected on five of his first six shots. The inside play for the Apps helped to cover for a less than effective perim­ eter shooting game. The team hit only one of eight three pointers in the first half. The score remained close as VMI held a 33-28 lead with only 3:31 left in the opening stanza, but back-to-back three pointers by Bobby Prince sparked a 12-2 run for the Keydets. Appalachian committed 14 turn­ overs in the first half, many of which oc­ curred during the VMI run. The Mountain­ eers also gave up eight offensive rebounds before the break. Even though VMI only shot 36 percent from the field in the first half, the second chance points gave the Keydets a 45-30 advantage at intermis- see Keydets page 12 Don't you hate it when everything goes exactly as everyone expected?

However, rookie Ricky Sobers, of the 1976 Phoenix Suns, puts even Rod­ man to shame. Sobers engaged in three fights during that season's playoffs, one in each playoff round. The 6-foot-3 Sobers slugged it out with 7-2 Tom Burleson of the Sonics (and N.C. State's 1974 championship team) in the quarterfinals. He popped Rick Barry in the mouth during the seventh game of the Western Conference Finals. He then whipped a guy named Kevin Stacom of the Celtics in the Championship Finals. So, although the Suns eventually lost to the Celts in six games, at least So­ bers was undefeated with his fists, at 30. "I don't think of myself as leading the league in fights," Sobers said once.

His final time of 14:54 ranks him first in the Southern Conference 5k. Brian Miesch's weekend performance of 15:04 ranks him second, while yet another ASU cross country member, Seth Peoples' debut ranked at fourth with his race of 15:09. Chris Huffstickler, in an attempt to hone his speed, raced the mile at USAir. While the pace­ setter's first half mile (2:14) pre­ cluded his chances at a fast time, his second half mile unleashed a voracious early season kick, as he crossed the line at 4:22. Huffstickler said of his race, "While the time wasn't particularly quick, I was pleased to beat some quality adversaries." Bob Mahoney put himself in the lead of Southern Conference rankings in the 800m with his 1:56. Close on his heels was 1994 S.C. 800m champion Jon Austin, 1:57. "Things are starting to come together, once we pick up a few pieces, we'll be ready to go for the second jewel in our hopeful triple crown," said Fereshetian in look­ ing to the Southern Conference meet to be held a month from now at ETSU.

"I think it is very safe to say that as the price (of the land) has already started its decline," said McClure. "Once we have a firm ground to stand on, that be­ ing the students coming out to sup­ port this proposal, we'll see this price (of Green's land) drop even further. In real estate nego­ tiations this is the way things work." Each side had a map of the area, but each claimed that there was a different amount of acreage in question. McClure claims that 79 acres is available for pur­ chase from Monte Green, and sites a map from Chuck Davis, a private engineer in Boone, as the source. Adams claimed that there are only 66 acres for sale on Howard's Knob, a num­ ber provided by the county tax planning office and sited in Tuesday's The Appala­ chian. The actual figure used by The Ap­ palachian was 67 acres, according to the Watauga County Tax Office. Another issue that was discussed dur­ ing the debate was the protection of the watershed. According to a "Vote Yes" flier, "We are not bringing forth some crazy, thought-upovernight suggestion and asking students to fund it" -Greg McClure Snead returns to vice chancellor seat Tiffany Lohman Assistant News Editor Robert Snead, executive assistant to the chancellor, will be appointed to the position of interim vice chancellor for univer­ sity advancement while a committee searches for a permanent replacement. Vice Chancellor James Strom announced his resignation in October at the conclusion of the Cam­ paign for Appalachian. Chancellor Francis T. Borkowski will appoint Snead to the position Wednesday. Snead formerly held this position under the heading of vice chancellor of development from 19711989. "I established and founded that de­ partment and I held that position for 18 years," said Snead. "I think I can handle it very well the next few months." During Snead's tenure as vice chancellor of development, a land deal concerning the sale of a tract of land on Hwy. 105 in October 1986 was investigated by the North Carolina Real Estate Board. Although there was a question of whether or not Snead handled the deal fairly, the investigation proved no im­ propriety on behalf of the department of development. "Everyone found there to be no wrongdoing in that deal," said Snead. "I believe that." According to Borkowski, Snead is qualified to handle the Snead one of the purposes of this proposal is to "protect a portion of watershed". Accord­ ing to Adams, the land for sale on Howard's Knob is not considered to be a "critical area" by Joe Furman, the direc­ tor of planning for the county, in protect­ ing the watershed. "There are approximately 20 lots between the land that Green owns and the watershed," said Adams. "To protect the watershed, this (Green's land) is not the piece of land that we need to worry about." "We cannot guarantee that this is go­ ing to protect ASU's watershed," said McClure. "This is not our primary objec­ tive under the ACES proposal." At the conclusion of the debate, both Adams and McClure urged students to vote on Feb. 1 and 2. "We (the "vote yes" campaign) are al­ lowing you to come out and decide for yourselves," said McClure. "I feel that if this proposal does not see the success that we expect it will, it will be because J.D. Adams and the "Vote No" campaign have undermined the integrity of this proposal." position of interim vice chancellor for university advancement. "Mr. Snead has a record that is highly regarded at this uni­ versity," said Borkowski, concerning Snead's qualifications. In 1989, under former Chancellor John Thomas, Snead was re-appointed to the position of executive assistant to the chan­ cellor. According to Snead, growth of the university prompted his move from vice chancellor to the executive assistant position, not the questions surrounding the 1986 land deal. Under the title of executive assistant to the chancellor, Snead is responsible for dealing with the North Carolina General As­ sembly, the Board of Governors, the Board of Trustees and other special projects under the chancellor. Snead will hold both the position of executive assistant and vice chancellor, beginning Wednesday, until a search committee finds someone to fill the position of vice chancellor of university advancement permanently. Dr. Kenneth Peacock, dean of the col­ lege of business, will head the committee. Borkowski and Peacock estimate the position could be filled as early as July 1. "We will not make any decisions in haste," said Peacock. "Appalachian's reputation is strong enough that we will receive many applicants." According to Snead, there will be no new undertakings of the advancement department under his appointment. He will simply continue to do the things that Strom, his predecessor, has set into motion. After a permanent vice chancellor has been selected, Snead will return to being the executive assistant to the chancellor on a full time basis. see Debate page 2 Strom assumes new post Feb. 1 Tiffany Lohman Assistant News Editor James Strom, Appalachian's vice chancellor of uni­ versity advance­ ment who turned in his resignation in November 1994, will be assuming" his new position with the North| Carolina Depart­ ment of Public In-1 struction on Feb. 1.1 Strom will be the Director of In­ formation Resource Management.

The Appalachian is a studentproduced newspaper published by the office of Student Publications in CSIL, a division of Student De­ velopment. The Appalachian pub­ lishes twice weekly, except for holi­ days and following long weekends. WASU-FM is a student-operated radio station under the guidance of the Communications Depart­ ment. "We seek individuals who will become campus leaders," said DiBernardi. The editor-in-chief will lead a staff of about 30 stu­ dents who will work several hours each week it produce the paper, in addition to another 50 or so stu­ dents who will report and photo­ graph the happenings at Appala­ chian State.

Cer­ tainly ACES is one of those con­ troversial issues, yet while Adams —— had all the author­ ity in the world over his own publication, he couldn't quite manage to print even those four let­ ters. Who is this character and why is he blatantly lying to me? I personally feel that I am much more affected by a $10 student fee increase than a "one time offer of All You Can Eat' in conjunction with Food Services," which was important enough to be included in this communication break­ through. It's certainly noble of Adams and Mclntyre to fulfill their campaign promises, but the sub­ title of the letter, "a look at what is happening on our campus," would more appropriately read, "only what we want you to know about what is happening on our campus."

Isn't it time that both sides be heard in fair and ethical matter so the students can decide for themselves? I know that throwing away table tents, ripping down signs and saying blatant lies against an opposing group is un­ fair. Is what we have to say that threatening? We, the cabinet, really be­ lieve in saving the Knob, but we don't believe it should come about by student fees. I know that dur­ ing Homecoming, SGA was able to get over $1,500 donated to help our cause. Don't you think there are other ways to solve this prob­ lem, such as asking large corpora­ tions like K-Mart, Coca-Cola, or Pepsi to help, or asking for dona­ tions from the 400-plus churches in the surrounding area? The bottom line is that it should be a student's right, not re­ sponsibility, to help this cause and I, along with every other cabinet member, am committed to making sure students know this.

Adams and his cabinet are not committed ("Letter to the Editor," Jan. 19). That seems very ironic coming from someone who has not attended any SGA-sponsored event other than senate meetings. If I am not mistaken, Ray Paschal attends ASG meetings in Chapel Hill every weekend so we may learn what other schools do and in turn may become a more productive and effective organiza­ tion. Tim Gray keeps Mountain­ eer Escort running smoothly so students may have a safe transpor­ tation alternative after dark. April Farwell had a safety walk and traf­ fic forum so students had a chance to stand up for their rights and voice their opinions. Jason Kincaid and I have "Into the Streets" and "Spring Fling" well organized so they make take place in March. This list could go on for pages, so I'll let these examples prove one important point - we are committed. We are very com­ mitted. However, our commit­ ment does not focus on one single issue - we try to focus on all as­ pects concerning the student body. How many senators who are fighting diligently to "Save the Knob" helped out with or attended the traffic forum, Homecoming, the safety walk, or ASG meetings? The answer is very few. Why is it that after two of the biggest SGA- sponsored events of the year, a ma­ jority of the senate was repri­ manded for their lack of effort? The answer is lack of commitment. Let me make something perfectly clear. We (J.D., Jane ment." I feel this idea to be inac­ curate in its application and lack­ ing in its justification. What rights do we as stu­ dents have? We have a right, and even a need, to attend classes regu­ larly. We have a right, and even a need, to participate in extracur­ ricular activities. We have a right, and even an obligation, to voice our opinion on issues affecting us personally, and as a college. However, we do not have a right to wrest control of that col­ lege from those who are paid to control it in the first place, nor do we have a right to use the author­ ity of the university to further our own causes. Students, hear me! The preservation of Howard's Knob is a noble cause, but to force unwill­ ing people to finance that preser­ vation is no noble thing, and de­ grades the dignity of the under­ taking. see Authority page 6 Send Letters to the Editor to ASU Box 9025 or to The Appalachian offices on the 2nd Floor of the student union. ommunity members react to ACES proposal chofield should concentrate on flooding ASU graduate proud of current students the Editor: To the Editor: I am writing this letter as Jen# istressed resident of Boone.

As I passed by this banner on my way to class, I immediately began to think and read the things that were suggested |by the banner. In my [opinion, one very clear fact came to my mind as I thought about the things I per­ sonally could do with $10 a se­ mester. The slo­ gan fails to rec­ ognize that $10 a semester is ac­ tually $20 a year, and for me, an extra $100 increase in my tuition by the time I finish my program here at Ap|palachian. When have student fees ever gone down? I believe the answer to that question would be never. People may think that $10 is not much, but I am also one of those out-of-state students who pays over $11,000 a year to attend | school at ASU. With over 40% of our stu­ dent body receiving need-based financial aid, and half of them F F working to pay for their educa­ tion, 1 consider $10 a semester to be a much bigger deal than is be­ ing advertised. Instead of "6 cans of spam," or "3 free minutes with a psychic friend," how about ex­ panding the resources for our uni­ versity? We could add a second doctor to the in­ firmary to lower the waiting lines. How about add­ ing more comput­ ers to our univer­ sity, providing ex­ tra curriculum, or even using the money to in­ crease diversity throughout the Appalachian campus? Appalachian State is not here to mandate social causes or force me to support a cause I do not strongly believe in. I do know that Appalachian is an academic institution devoted to furthering my educational needs. So instead of using your next $10 on the purchase of a chia pet, let us think maturely and quit pretending money is not every­ thing; because for some of us, it is.

I understand Schofield is strong supporter of the Greenway Trail, which is a stone's throw away (downstream) from my home. How much of my neighborhood's tax dollars have been spent cleaning up the Greenway after flooding? I understand that Schofield and the Town Council approved tens of thousands of dol­ lars to go toward the construction of a steel (flood-proof?) foot bridge and extending the Greenway through my front yard. Personally, I resent the fact that a steel bridge for a walk­ ing trail takes precedence over ad­ dressing the recommendations that were made by the USDA Soil and Conservation Service in a flood plain management study (of my neighborhood) 2 1/2 years ago, in 1992. The recommendations made in the study were ignored by the town council until the Au­ gust 1994 flood.

Matt Roberts and Steve Davis have. Milton Bradley has named them as the proud residents of the messi­ est dorm room in North Carolina. When asked why they let their room in East Hall reach such squalor, Roberts laughed. "We tried to clean up a couple times," said Roberts, "but it was so disheartening because it was such a mess." "Besides," Roberts added, "we always found what we were looking for. It just may have taken a while." The two roommates are very proud of their ac­ complishment, or lack thereof. "Everyone gave us hell and we think they were afraid to come in," Rob­ erts said. When the flyers for the Milton Bradley's "Pass the Pigs" contest were posted, Roberts and Davis took action. Milton Bradley created the Pass the Pigs Pig­ sty Search to seek out students across the nation that live in "pigsties." Mark Morris, public relations manager at Milton Bradley, explained the idea behind the contest. "The Pigsty Search is basically a 'snapshot' of college life in America. It pokes fun at one of the most common attributes on college campuses- the not-so-neat dorm room." In order to enter they had to take pictures of their "pigsty" as well as write a paragraph explain­ ing why they should win. They also had to get a nomination from their resident assistant, Tracey Quinones, in order to guarantee that no intentional damage was done to the room. The national Grand Prize Pig not only gains the illustrious title, but also a $1,000 award for both the winner and their Resident Advisor. Milton Bradley will also have the national winner's room profession­ ally cleaned, but keeping it that way is up to the win­ ner. Milton Bradley will also throw a party for the winner and 100 of his or her closest friends. As North Carolina's winners, Davis and Roberts received a Pass the Pigs game, as well as coupons for other games and a Pass the Pigs T-shirt. Roberts and Davis have finally taken it upon themselves to clean up their mess. They found out that they weren't the national winners of the profes­ sional room cleaning so it was up to them if they ever wanted company. "There was stuff stuck to the floor that shouldn't have been there," Roberts commented, "as well as pizza boxes everywhere. We got tired of people avoid­ ing our room. We wanted them to come hang out, but the only place for them to sit was on our beds." Davis spoke out at this point, adding, "usually they couldn't even sit there." Now after getting fed up with keeping their fin­ gers crossed every time they crossed their room, the guys have cleaned up their act. see PIGS page 10 'Knight' for gore Jazz trio to perform at Broyhill /en Mackay er he schlock horror series "Tales From rypt" has jumped from the small n of HBO to the big screen in "Tales the Crypt Presents Demon Knight" , that's the title - what a mouthful), his move may save the "Crypt" franThe cable series started out in 1989 esh, scary series gore galore, the series has hit bottom.

He has also recorded with Ted Nash on "Out of this World" and Ron Brendle on "Hypermobility." Kimbrough received a National En­ dowment for the Arts grant in 1994 and won the Great American Jazz Piano Com­ petition at the Jacksonville Jazz Festival in 1985. He has appeared at the New Haven Jazz Festival, the Greenwich Vil­ lage Jazz Festival, the D.C. Space Jazz Festival, and many clubs in the New York area and in the South and Midwest. He has conducted workshops at New York University, Berklee College of Music, Oberlin Conservatory of Music, Indiana State University and the University of North Carolina at Greensboro. Kimbrough has also been on the faculty at Appalachian's Cannon Music Camp. Scholarship Box Adam Perry Kephart was an exchange faculty member in the 1930's, and during his lifetime, he and his children helped many foreign exchange students attend school in the United States. His interest will now continue due to a bequest of $250,000 to ASU from his daughter, Margeret Kephart's estate. The gift will fund a travel grant for Appala­ chian students studying abroad, and schol­ arships for international students, which will bring foreign students to ASU. The first scholarship will be awarded in the 1995-96 academic year. The first grants, four will be given each year, will be given this summer. For further informadon, call Saunders at 262- 2083.

"Spotlight" is a monthly feature that will draw up-and-coming acts in an effort to consistently introduce good, new music to this area's audiences. Blue Miracle is a six-piece rock band from Washington D.C. who pride themselves in their strong touring ability, bragging over 200 shows a year throughout the East Coast and the Southeastern United States. They recently signed onto Autonomous Records, a label known for promoting good performing acts, such as Jupiter Coyote. Lead guitarist John Arthur, drummer Ryan Wick and percussionist Steve Cyphers originated Blue Miracle in 1990 in Bowie, MD. The lineup was expanded in 1991 with the addition of guitar­ ist Derek Leininger, bassist Kevin O'Brien and Jon Gillespie on keyboards. Their current press release describes their sound as "blended southern rock with a heavy percus­ sive Latino feel and a dash of soul...a unique combination that has enabled them to open for such diverse acts as Blues Traveler, The Diggable Planets, and The Byrds. Blue Miracle's debut album is scheduled for release this fall. Watch for The Klondike Cafe's "New Band Spotlight" monthly, as well as the other acts that circulate the club regularly.

Forward Merideth Thompson got the Mountaineers off to a solid start, scoring 10 of her 12 points in the first half. From the moment that Andreia Hinton put in a three-footer to give ASU a 5-4 lead early in the contest, the Apps never relinquished the lead. ASU (12-3, 4-1 conference) led by 10 at halftime by the count of 39-29, and the Buccaneers (12-4) could not pull closer than five points until the final minute.

'Cats claw back against Akram Barghothi Sports Editor : The 1994-95 season marks the second season for the Sears sponsored Sears Directors' Cup, a competition between all the Division I athletic programs in the nation. At the conclusion of the fall sports season Appalachian ranked 25th. Appalachian is one of only four Divi­ sion I-AA football schools to be so hon­ ored. James Madison ranked 9th on the wings of a National Championship Field Hockey season. Boston University ranked 20th, and Dartmouth ranked 24th. The rankings are determined by a points system. Points are awarded to each school for finishes in 22 different sports, 10 core sports for men and 10 for women, and one wild-card sport for both men and f- women. Scores are based on a 64-team cham' pionship field, and points are awarded for each team depending on how high they finished in their respective sport at the end of their season. A National Champion­ ship earns a team the full 64 points. Second place nets a squad 63 points, and so on. Appalachian received its rank of 25 on the strength of successful seasons in sev­ eral sports. The Women's Volleyball team earned 31 points, the Men's Cross Coun­ try team received 43 for its efforts and the Football team received points for their fifth place finish in 1-AA football. "For us to be in the top 25 in the na­ tion is a great accomplishment," said Appalachian's Roachel Laney on ASU's ranking. "We have solid men's and women's sports seasons coming up that will hope­ fully keep us up among the national elite," said Assistant Athletic Director Mark Dreibelbis on Appalachian's future in the rankings. In addition to keeping rankings the Athletic Departments based on overall performance, Sears also awards teams who win their respected conferences. Appalachian picked up two such awards for campaigns in Women's Volleyball and Men's Cross Country. Iphotr.

There have been a slew of games where the Mountaineers have played well, but still came out on the low end of the score. Mon­ day night was no exception as the Apps built an 11 point lead against Davidson in the second half, only to find themselves on the losing side of a 77-74 score. In the first half, the Mountain­ eers came out hot, shooting at a 55.2 percent clip. Davidson battled back as the Wildcats claimed their biggest lead of the game at 31-26 with three minutes left in the first half. The Mountaineers then went on a 9-0 run to end the first half and take a four point advantage to the break. After intermission, the Moun­ taineers constructed a 54-43 lead with just over 12 minutes left in the game. Much of this success was due to the tremendous performance of Chad McClendon. McClendon had game highs in points and rebounds, pouring in 24 points on12-14 shoot­ ing and collecting eight caroms. "When I got mad at our team Saturday," Coach Tom Apke reflects on The Citadel game, "I told him he was the best player in the con­ ference but he wasn't playing like it. Monday night he was the best player in the game and in the con­ ference." However, it was not enough as Davidson chipped away at the Mountaineer lead. The Wildcats shot a superb 59 percent in the sec­ Mountaineer senior Chad McClendon led the Mountaineers in* ond stanza and grabbed eight of­ (file photo) fensive boards compared to only rebounds with 24 points and eight rebounds, two for the Apps.

My simple question is this: Anyway, someone must have What is a midget who knows called George on the Shinn-phone nothing about basketball doing and told him they didn't like Gilliam. No problem. Gilliam and another supposed Hornet center of the future, Dave Hoppen, were shipped to Philadelphia for the new center of the future, Mike Gminski. I like Mike. But not for Sports Commentary Patrick Saleeby a (^reat ^ITaste Qftioonef two players, one being the best offensive player on the team. After this season was when Bristow took over. Though many regard him as a mediocre coach, he started to take over the person­ nel decisions. The year before he was coach­ ing the team, he was the Director of Player Personnel. He drafted Kendall Gill, brought in Johnny "No Assist" Newman via free agency, and then drafted Larry Johnson first in a draft that could have seen three other players go first— Billy Owens, Dikembe Mutombo, or Kenny Anderson. Finally, someone who had actually played basketball and knew some­ thing about it, was calling the shots. Things were quiet on the front for awhile (except for the Kendall Gill debacle), then came summer '94. This would be the greatest Hornets blunder of all. The Horace Grant - Danny Manning disaster. The Hornets wanted Grant, so they canceled a meeting with Manning (supposedly because Shinn was on vacation and wanted to be part of the negotiations) to wait and see Grant's decision. Grant went to the Orlando Magic, and Manning got mad and went to Phoenix. Ironi­ cally, these two teams have the two best records in the NBA at this point in time. In general, the Hornets front of­ fice was blamed for this mistake. But anyone who has followed the rresfily §moked fefcQand Vegetarian Sales - Service feed for a student 6udget. Hornets knows this mishap had Shinn's name all over it. We may never know for sure who actually made the horrible call of postpon­ ing the meeting with Manning, but I am confident that Shinn was pull­ ing the strings behind closed doors. And now it has all come full circle. This latest meeting with the three players shows that Shinn crumbles under the fans' pressure. 1 do respect him in the sense that he didn't just fire Bristow, but ac­ tually took the time to talk to the players. But he still needs to stay out of the limelight like a good owner should. We don't need a Jerry Jones or Al Davis in the Carolinas. I am grateful to Shinn for bring­ ing the NBA to the Carolinas. He did beat the odds, and kept his promise to the Charlotte faithful. But I'm tired of quick, irrational decisions that have kept the Hor­ nets from ever blending together as a team. They are finally healthy, and are competing for first place in the Central Division with Cleve­ land and Indiana. Mr. Shinn, 1 know you gradu­ ated last in your high school class, and probably laugh at those who graduated before you. As an en­ trepreneur, you have excelled. But as a basketball decision maker, you have not. Let a person that has actually dribbled a basketball, even if only on a playground, make those decisions for you.

According to the ACES proposal, The Trust for Public Land would buy land on Howard's Knob from Monte Green, a Florida-based real estate developer. Ap­ palachian students would then reimburse TPL for the cost of the land plus interest. Proponents of the ACES fee claim that by purchasing Green's land, the wa­ tershed would be protected by Appala­ chian. However, the land Green currently owns is approximately 1200 feet from Appalachian's watershed. The land between the watershed and Green's land is owned by other resi­ dents, so the ACES proposal will not pre­ vent development of the land directly adjacent to the watershed any more than current state laws. ACES proponents also claim that the proposal will protect Howard's Knob from development. The proposal would prevent Green from developing the north facing side of Howard's Knob, however it is likely that land facing Boone would still be developed by Monte Green. Green owns both the land ACES supporters would like to purchase and a four-acre tract which surrounds the Howard's Knob County Park and over­ looks Boone. Green intends to build an 8,000 square foot home on the four acre tract not included in the ACES proposal, according to Green's former real estate broker Richard Stahl. Reporter Students will have the opportu­ nity to ask their questions about the ref­ erendum on the proposed Appalachian Community and Environmental Steward­ ship (ACES) fee tonight. The Appalachian will be hosting an official debate concerning ACES at 7:30 p.m. in The Pub. Off-campus Sena­ tor Greg McClure will represent those in support of ACES. Student Government President J.D. Adams will represent the opposition. Both will answer questions from The Appalachian News Editor Manya Howard's Knob Reporter The Appalachian Convocation Center committee dove into plans to in­ crease the number of seats in the arena to 10,000 when they met with architect Haycon-Corley last Hiesday. The layout and contents for the building had been revised, according to Tony Gray, director of office of confer­ ences and institutes. Haycon-Corley has now planned for 10,000 retractable chairback seats, Athletic Director Roachel Laney said. "It exceeds the needs of athletics, but would be able to be used for other purposes." Graduation is one of the uses the buiding may employ. 'Ten thousand seats would be adequate for graduation under the current circumstances," Registrar Brooks McLeod commented.

Green originally asked for $1.5 million for the land. However, he lowered his price to $750,000, then lowered it again to $600,000, the price students would pay according to ACES. Schofield said that negotiations were still taking place through CPL, though he "has never spoken to the man (Green)." According to the ACES plan Schofield submitted to Chancellor Frank Borkowski, Appalachian would eventually purchase 79 acres from Green. However, Green only owns approximately 67 acres, Brachear, WASU Program Director David Ponder, Peter Ansbacher, a representative from Appalvision (the university television station) and audience members.

In an October letter to Borkowski, Schofield cites a $325,000-$350,000 ap­ praisal. But according to the official ap­ praisal commissioned by TPL in Novem­ ber 1993, the land is only worth $210,000.

Athletics Director Roachel Laney said the architect brought back an excel­ lent design. "It is almost a completely dif­ ferent facility," Laney said, "but it will still be four floors." The pool was shown as a future addition and the auxiliary gym has been dropped from the plans." According to several members of the committee, the pool in Broome-Kirk is in good condition mechanically. It's just not aesthetically pleasant. In relation to the auxiliary gym, some extra space will be available in the new building to allow for a multi-purpose floor when the retractable seats are pushed in, Director of Student Programs Dave Robertson said.

"My concern is that this would set a precedent that student fees could be collected for all kinds of issues," Adams said. much in detail." Schofield said he was not con­ cerned about the appraisal because he and other ACES creators were operating based on how much Green wanted for the prop­ erty, not the appraised value of the prop­ erty. Allen also quoted the $325,000 figure, although a copy of the $210,000 appraisal was sent to his office in Decem­ ber of 1993. "My memory does not jive with those numbers ($210,000) at all," said see ACES page 2 Sprinkler malfunctions Manya Brachear News Editor The sprinkler system in Appala­ chian Heights Apartment Complex has presented more hazards to students' be­ longings than prevented hazards to their lives.

Kelli Denise Froemke, 19, of Spruce Pine, left Boone around 6:30 p.m. Wednesday to return to her Asheville home which she shared with her brother, according to police. Froemke who, for financial reasons, had not re-enrolled for the spring semester, had apparently visited friends in the Boone area. At approximately 11 p.m. Froemke's brother Swen Froemke returned home to find his apartment ablaze. Emergency workers pulled the partiallyclothed body out of the burning bedroom. Police reports said the fire had been started in the bedroom's closet. No signs of any kind of lighter fluid were present, however, as well as no signs of forced entry into the apartment. Medical examiners confirmed the woman was sexually-assaulted. Froemke transferred to Appalachian last fall from Mayland Commu­ nity College. Associate Vice Chancellor Barbara Daye said she was planning on majoring in art. Although she had not enrolled for the spring semester, she had planned on returning after she had saved up enough money from working two jobs in an Asheville clothing store and a card shop. Ginger Miller, a resident of the apartment complex said a Peeping Tom looked into her family's apartment one night in October. A friend chased the peeper away.

At approximately 1:15 p.m. University Police received a call that the second and third floor ceilings had collapsed in Raley Hall. Two officers on duty were dispatched to the scene. The fire department was also automatically dispatched. Upon arriving on the scene, officers discovered a small leak in the commons area on the second floor. A piece of plaster two inches wide and six inches long had fallen off. Roy Tugman, director of Public Safety, said the leak was not a new one.

In a situation where many calls are coming in at once the safety of people is university police's first priority, according to Tugman. High priority would also be students needing to be trans­ ported from a residence hall to the infirmary. Second would be the safety of property and then the locking of buildings on campus. According to Tugman, University Police have received some prank calls in the past but the situation on Saturday was not one. "Based on our knowledge it was not a prank call, but the problem indicated was not the problem in the call,"said Tugman. EAT continued from page 1 HI 1 Ginger Wood SPRING BREAK asm ACES Allen went on to say that those figures may have been cor­ rect in November 1993, but the value of the land would have risen over the past year and a half. "I no longer feel those numbers are accurate," Allen said. "I'm confident if another appraisal was done, the value would have gone up significantly." Allen also said he was not negotiating based on any ap­ praisal, but was focusing on what Green wants for the property. Appraisal costs are crucial to the ACES fee because state or­ ganizations cannot purchase land for more than the appraised value. According to the Office of State Property, a state univer­ sity must submit a request to pur­ chase land. The land in question would then be surveyed and ap­ praised by the state office. The university pays for these services through funds that are allocated to purchase the land. This process is estimated to take from three to six months. "It's been very difficult try­ ing to meet (Green's) needs and trying to work within the bureau­ cracy of a public institution," said Allen. Stahl said that students will be wasting their money if they pay any more than the appraised value. "If (Schofield) is really concerned about helping students and saving Howard's Knob, he should be asking, if no one else will pay that much (Green's asking price of $600,000 - $1,5 million), why should students," said Stahl. Schofield could not be reached for further comment. those are the people who turn out and vote on election day," said Sutton. CONGRESSIONAL RULE The most significant thing about this year, according to Sutton, is that "we are entering a period of Congressional rule." "Unlike in the past, when Americans were worried about the Cold War and the President was dealing with foreign policy the majority of the time, we now have a domestic urgency, and when it comes to domestic affairs, Con­ gress doesn't take a back seat," said Sutton. It is interesting to note that in the past, Presidents used their election as a "mandate" to do what they campaigned for. Con­ gress has now begun to do the same thing. According to Sutton, "That is what this 'Contract With America' is all about." Police respond to flood call Is Winter Com WE WOULD LIKE TO INVITE YOU TO EAT.

Fanatical eir perspectives on environ­ = cause aied ot mental issues, they will assault anyone or anything that goes against the will of their leader, Mr. Hunter Schofield, also known by his code name: Knob-saver. Faced with such awesome forces, there is little one can do to keep from getting stalked by the highly trained paramilitary units of eco-warriors. Just keep to the shadows, and always carry a copy of a Robert Robertson edi­ torial or JD Adams pamphlet to ward them off. Now, of course none of this is true in the sense that I have written, but the aggressive, inyour-face campaign does take away from the legitimacy of their position. It is hard to see the side's views when all they seem to do is point out what is wrong with the other's campaign. For instance, a flier that was shoved into my hands last week refuted the arguments of the Say No To ACES people, and it stated that the Save the Knob cause was NOT the will of the few imposed on the many, but sup­ ported by a whole 3,500 students. This was supposed to have been proven through the signing of pe­ titions and number of stickers handed out. Well, from what I have seen the petition was for people who wanted a referendum, not for paying $20. And the numbers of stickers handed out does not indiCate' hOW many are for the proposal, but how aggressive the Save the Knob advocates are. When voting at any time, it is very important to make an informed decision. One must look past the openly biased propa­ ganda and make a choice based on the mind rather than the heart. Holly McClanahan Guest Columnist I am a freshman here at ASU and I am writing concerning ACES. It is an issue I have fol­ lowed throughout the year. I have been to the ACES booth and have also heard the opposing side. I feel I have a good grasp on what is going on. I will be voting YES on Feb. 1 or 2. I feel very strongly about this issue. I think that ACES is something that will benefit all students, not just a select few. There is nothing wrong with the fact that a small group of students originally formed the idea.

When I learned of ACES I Everyone benefits from ACES fee To the Editor: And now ACES stands out in the open where everyone is al­ lowed to judge it for themselves. This is not an issue based solely on power and money. It becomes aware that people are concerned greatly with their environment. With so many problems in the world that it seems we cannot change, we can. ACES affects everyone in the town of Boone. It's time that people think about what they are actually doing with every part of the day and night's array. I speak true when I say that ACES is the best actively-involved issue between the men and women, students and lo­ cals, that I have seen in this town. It benefits everybody! But hey, don't let my words influence your thoughts in vain.

That's a dan­ gerous path to take, for it opens a Pandora's box. If a fee to save the envi­ ronment passes today solely be­ cause a group of students want it, what about tomorrow? Several students may feel that Boone should have an Opera­ tion Rescue office for pregnant teens. If they organize and peti­ tion, should it pass? How about a local chapter of the NAACR some­ thing unsuccessfully attempted just over a year ago? At student's bidding should the university fund this as well? Who will argue against an office to combat racial injustice or a clinic to save the life of an un­ born child? Both arguments are as strong as one to save a mountain, but should they warrant an in­ creased financial burden upon the Appalachian student body as a whole? The answer is no. ACES sets the mold for future fees which ASU should not become apart of outside of its interests as a place for higher education. We are the Appalachian State University Mountaineers, not Planeteers, and should not be called on to further the political beliefs of a select few.

"There is no such thing as no impact, so low impact use of the outdoors must be taught," Quinn said Quinn thinks this is the most impor- Inn, and they emphasize problem solving through group interaction. Quinn also hopes to prepare students for leadership roles on campus through the Appalachian Leadership Experience Outdoors program. This is an expe­ rience similar to Outward Bound run by Outdoor Programs during the summer. Twelve student leaders, chosen by application, go on an ex­ pedition including mountaineering, orienteering, and rock climbing. These activities are to prepare stu­ dents as leaders on campus by pro__ viding them powerful learning ex­ periences and ethical practices. Quinn feels that the pro­ gram is already strong, and by the increase in student use » over the last few "More and more, people are doing outdoor adventure and we must educate people to use resources wisely." -Joe Quinn tant educational value that can be brought. "We have become a model pro­ gram nation wide," Quinn said, and other schools, such as UNC Chappel Hill, have started seeking help from ASU in improv­ ing their own programs. The programs are run by students, which is another educational aspect of Quinn's mission. Over 3000 students go through Outdoor Programs each season, and 98 percent of those are led by stu­ dents trained in ASU's new program. "We are one of a few outdoor pro­ grams at universities nation wide that are training students to a professional staff level, and they are getting jobs in this field after graduation with Outward Bound and other groups," Quinn said. One program offered by Outdoor Pro­ grams is now required in all Freshman Seminar classes due to its group building aspects. The Alpine Wall and ropes course activities are conducted behind Broyhill years, he feels it can only im­ prove. "It is im­ portant to everyone's education to get out and push your lim­ its," he said, and he feels that this can best be done in the natural environment. Outdoor Programs is located in Plemmons Student Union, outside the bowling alley. They offer expeditions and instruction in rock climbing, canoeing and rafting, and mountaineering as well as rent camping equipment. legends" falls to pieces "Special Sauce" adds a kick to blues even Mackay sporter CI^«nler..

His three sons, Alfred (Aidan Quinn), stan (Brad Pitt) and Samuel (Henry omas from "E.T.") have problems of eir own. Samuel comes home from colge with his new fiancee, Susannah layed by Julia Ormond). She is a stunngly beautiful woman full of spirit, arts, charm and the utmost grace.

W_ r 1 1 a 1 is still an active mountaineer and enjoys the outdoors, also worked thirteen years for Outward Bound, a leadership course based on rustic experience, which he brought to Appalachian. Quinn decided to start this aspect of the program for several reasons, one being his own edu­ cation gained from outdoor ex­ periences. He also said it had to do with anything from justifying the program's existence to the growing acceptance of learning by do­ ing. "More and more, people are doing outdoor adventure and we must educate people to use resources wisely," Quinn said. The aspects of education he hopes to make prominent are in natural science, such as biology and geology complimenting the areas in which the program runs. The social skills of leadership, group building and problem solving are skills which he feels everyone can use. The program is already educational in its scope in teaching skills necessary for the activities they offer. However, by be­ ing outside, a different type of education comes out by necessity. Environmental ethics is a prominent When Samuel is killed in World War I, Alfred sets his sights on her but fails. She wants Tristan, who has gone crazy with guilt (he watched Samuel die). This desperate a.ct rof Jove splits the family apart. The focus of the movie is on Tristan, a wild child who yearns to live like the In­ dians. He has long hair, dirty clothes, kills everything in sight, likes to wrestle griz­ zly bears and enjoys holding hearts. Yep, it's oP Brad Pitt back in his best of Brad Pitt roles: Mr. Grungy. He does a good job, but we've seen it before. The supporting cast helps out a lot. Quinn, miscast only by voice (he sounded like a city boy) is quiet and wonderful as the eldest brother. Hopkins is good as papa bear, but later in the film, after a stroke, he looks like a strange cross be­ tween Albert Einstein and Popeye. Zwick does an admirable job in this film, bringing back the swooping camera and epic war scenes used in "Glory." Sadly, there is no spirit in "Legends." Out of all the tragedies, miracles and con­ quests that fall upon this family, not one grips the audience. It's flat like a warm soda. James Horner's score only adds to the disappointment, it's brilliant but has no basis on the movie. The creators of "Leg­ ends" set themselves and us up another "Glory," but the outcome is, to paraphrase a scene in the classic Civil War film, like a cannonball in the head. Grade: ** Ivan Vazquez Reporter I was introduced to G. Love and Spe­ cial Sauee last fall when a friend whom I was dropping off at UNC-Greensboro on my way back to Boone popped the tape on me. Shad assured me I'd like these guys from Delaware because of their sem­ blance to hip-hop, and bass-heavy sound. After listening to the tape during the entire 80-minute drive from Raleigh to Greensboro I was hooked, and persuaded him to give me the tape instead of the gas money he owed me. Since then I've realized that what I like best about G. Love and Special Sauce is their bluesy sound. They recognize their influence most explicitly in "Blues Music," the second cut on the album. "Me and my band / All must agree we like to get groovy/ With the sounds of the old time... / Cisco and Sonny Lead Belly too.J A million Sears Silvertone guitars / Heard the licks no need to take them nowhere / Blues music." The band consists of G. Love (guitar, harmonica, vocals), Jeffrey Clemens (per­ cussion, background vocals), and Jimmy Jass Prescott (string bass). Their themes are typically blue; love won, love lost, dealin' with the fat man, the wandering spirit and the things it's seen, or just daily life, like playing ball on the steamy city courts and downing cold beverages in the hot summer sun. The rhymes may sometimes act funny, but the sound keeps it dirty. Their sound is definitely unique in that it can go from low-down bluesy, as in "Eyes Have Miles,"to almost grungy in "Garbage Man." The rhythm section forms the core. the drums kicking a hollow beat and Prescott's stand-up bass supplying funk by the pounds. G. Love's steely guitar and wailing harmonica highlight the groove. Highlights of the album include "Baby's Got Sauce," a hype track declar­ ing that "Your baby ain't sweet like mine / She got sauce," and "This Ain't Living," a slower, more expressive tune addressing the plight of homeless families in America's cities. Popularity for the group seems to be coming rapidly. They performed at Chapel Hill's Cat's Cradle last year, unbeknownst to me, and have released at least one single, "Cold Beverage." The video has apparently gotten some play on MTV G. Love and Special Sauce's self-titled debut album is available on tape or conspact disk (unfortunately not on vinyl) at a music store near you.

The bands this Thursday, Jan. 26, Satchelfoot and Bloodkin, who will be joined by Widespread Panic's drummer, Todd Nance, are no exception. Bloodkin, a blues-based rock band out of Athens, Ga., includes Daniel Hutchens and Eric Carter on guitars and vocals, and Chris Barrineau on bass. Todd Nance from Widespread Panic will be sitting in on drums for several of their dates, includ­ ing the one this week in Boone. The band is out in support of their new CD "Good Luck Charm" on Johnny Sandlin's new label Back Door Records. Sandlin, who has worked in the past with such acts as The Allman Brothers, Wide­ spread Panic, and Colonel Bruce Hamp­ ton and the Aquarium Rescue Unit, pro­ duced Bloodkin's debut release. Some of Bloodkin's writing has been performed and recorded by Widespread Panic. Songs such as "Makes Sense to Me" from Widespread's debut album, and "Henry Parsons Died" from the album "Ev­ eryday" were both inked by Bloodkin. Boone's own Satchelfoot will be head­ lining the show Thursday. The band, made up of Chip Cooper on lead guitar, Rob Conrad on bass, John Holoman on drums and Rusty Stevens on guitar and vocals, can be described as a groove-ori­ ented band, but the labels stop there. "I don't want to be labeled as anything," said front-man Stevens. "All I can say is that it will be an all-out jam." The band doesn't just go out and play a song, they take each piece and mold it into a light jam with soul and feeling. The musicians in this group rely on the vibe they get from one another rather than precise planning. Tammy Chatellier, Night Life editor of the Mountain Times, said, "Calling Chip Cooper an awesome guitarist is the under statement of the year." These guys are not just in a band, they are true musicians. One of their biggest shows so far was this past summer at Carolina Summer Jam in Charlotte.

Now, 72 players in the league earn at least $1 million a year. This lockout by the NHL owners is taking away the innocence of the game, the feeling that "it's just a game." Even though the season will go on this year, I expect that the problems of big-money "Our defensive intensity got things going for us in the second half," Coach sports that have plagued baseball for the last few years will continue to haunt Tom Apke remarked on his team's perfor­ mance. "For us to win we had to keep hockey. The Appalachian State Lady Mountaineers, paced by junior Karolina Karlqvist's 16 points and eight rebounds, punished Marshall 109-56 Sat­ urday evening in ASU's most lopsided victory of the season. The Apps broke away from the Thundering Herd early in the first half and never gave the visitors so much as a backwards glance. By the mid­ point of the opening period, ASU led 19-10, and Marshall (9-7 overall, 1-4 Southern) had no answer for the Moun­ taineers' peaking offense. Halftime found Appalachian riding atop a 27-point cush­ ion, 47-20. Maaret Artosalo, aver­ aging 12 points over the last three games, matched Karlqvist's 16 on Saturday and added four rebounds. Artosalo started in lieu of sophomore guard Meredith Thompson, whose injury from the Jan. 16 Davidson game saw her earn limited time. "(Artosalo) can score in a variety of ways," said Coach Linda Robinson. "I'm really proud of her."

Amongst 0 other teams, the Appalachian track team proved strong against some power­ ful competition. The three victories were the products of the same athletes that won at the same venue just one week before. 'Poose' Johnson once again took the triple jump with his 50'8.5" combination. "It was re­ ally nice to see 'Poose' pull it out on the last jump," said Fereshetian. Also repeating a win was Rich Grant, in the 351b. weight. Neither he nor Jason Dalton are debutantes to the winner's circle. This Saturday though, Jason had to share the room of the victors podium with someone else, as there was a tie in see Men's track page 15 The men's basketball team captured their first conference win Saturday with a 74-57 victory over The Citadel. The win ended a three game slide for the Moun­ taineers and took Appalachian's record to 1-2 in the Southern Conference and 4-11 overall. The Mountaineers came out slow in the first half and found themselves down 8-2 in the openine minutes. However, the six point advantage for the Bulldogs would be the largest they would enjoy for the afternoon as the Apps battled back and tied the score at 14-14 on back- to- back dunks by Kareem Livingston and Junior Braswell. The two squads scrapped back and forth throughout the first half and The Citadel carried a slim 29-25 advantage to intermission. The Bulldogs were led by Noy Castillo with nine points. The Moun­ taineers got eight points from Chad McClendon in the first half and four from Livingston who got his first start of the season. In the second half, Appalachian came out with a new sense of focus and played their best basketball of the season. The Mountaineers outscored the Bulldogs 4928 after the break. The key to this suc­ cess came in the Apps defensive pressure. Castillo out of double figures." The Mountaineers held The Citadel to 35 percent shooting and combined for 11 steals as a team, which resulted in easy baskets including a series of fast breaks by Braswell and Brian Hege. Hege got things done on both ends of the floor, scor­ ing a game high 20 points and holding Castillo scoreless in the second half. Appalachian built a 20 point advan­ tage in the second half off 67 percent shooting on the way to the 74-57 final score. McClendon and Tige Darner both chipped in with 15 points. Braswell had a double figure performance with 10 points. Livingston led the team in rebounding by gathering 10 caroms. "It was time to mature as individu­ als and as a team, "Apke noted after the game. This maturity will be tested as the Mountaineers travel to Davidson on Janu­ ary 19, to face a Wildcat team that cur­ rently holds the top spot in the Southern Conference Northern Division. The Wild­ cats were runners up in last season's Southern Conference tournament and gained a bid to the NIT. William Cook will be eligible to play in the contest but Apke made no mention as to if he would start. The Mountaineers then return home Saturday to face VMI. Women on track Akram Barghothi Sports Editor On Saturday Jan. 21 the Appalachian women's indoor track team traveled to Blacksburg, Virginia to compete in the Virginia Tech Indoor Invitational. Nine­ teen teams were entered in the meet, and although it was not a scored meet, the Mountaineers would have finished in the top five. "Our intention was to take our top athletes and attempt to compete at the top with some of the best track athletes in the region" said ASU Women's indoor track Coach John Weaver. "We accomplished that goal with flying colors," Weaver added. The Mountaineers were led by se­ nior Katrina Lee who set the pace for the teams strong showing in the meet. On Friday night Lee took first place in the 200m event. Beth Burleson, also a senior, had a strong showing in two events. Burleson see Women's track page 15 The Super Bowl It's that time again, the big event in January, when the NFEs best teams ship out to a warm-weather clime to battle it out for supremacy of the league. Each sea­ son, for the last eternity, had the NFC's representative dominate the game from the start. This year's matchup appears to be no different. The 49ers are favored to win by191/2, and that spread is expected to increase. The only reassuring thing right now for the underdog AFC and its champion, the Chargers, is that 26 years ago, an Ala­ bama graduate led his team to the Super Bowl, his Jets favored to lose just as bad, to the older and more established Balti­ more Colts. Joe Namath, the young Alabama graduate and Jets quarterback, told ev­ eryone that he "guaranteed" a win for the Jets. He came through. In a miracle, New York won 16-7. Now, if it turns out that the Chargers have a chance to duplicate this feat, I might watch this game. Other­ wise, I expect this game not to be worth the overblown halftime show. I wonder how many people around here are actually Chargers fans? Both com­ batants are teams from far-away Califor­ nia, but San Francisco may have legiti­ mately taken away Dallas' title of "America's Team." From the days of Joe Montana, they might have had it all along. Four trips to the Big One, all of them winners and a growing popularity, due to the charisma of Joe Montana, and their continued suc­ cess as a team, has increased their fan support all over the nation. I would hate to be in the Super Bowl party in the Pub rooting for San Diego, but more power to the Chargers supporters all around cam­ pus. I wish the Chargers good luc1 me, I used to live in Denver, and I heard all of the "Speed Limit 55, Broncos 10" jokes I care to hear. �Page 14 APPALACHIAN STATEUNIVERSITY S u e t PosUsuti& t d n The Carl Wolf Studio photographer will be on campus January 23 - 28.

Appalachian's 109 points fell only four short of the school's 15year-old record, set against Milligan. "We were up by 20-22 points in the Western Carolina game, and only won by six" (74-68, on Wednesday), Coach Robinson said, commenting on how she kept the team motivated in the second half, as they led by almost 30 points at the break. "It was a good opportu­ nity to show some killer instinct." in the 1501bs. weight class. Duke Howell capped off the Mountain­ eer scoring with a 7-2 win in the heavyweight division. The Apps did not fare as well in the second match, as the Spar­ tans scored five victories in the tories by Eddie Clark at 190 lb. and a 2-1 overtime victory by heavy­ weight Howell brought the contest with UNC-G to a close knotted at five wins apiece. The two- victory afternoon by Baldwin took his record to 17-5-0 for the season, including five pins. The next match for the Apps is Tuesday Jan. 24 versus Carson Newman. The Mountaineers tied Carson Newman last year, but in­ juries have plagued the squad this season and this match promises to be a challenge. "Carson Newman has a really good team. They've got a couple kids that were not eligible before," Coach Paul Mance observed. "We can win but its going to be really tight." Appalachian will be without the services of national qualifier Seth Myerson and Brad Ginn who leads the team in wins. Vinny Zullo and Ruben Montano are also ques­ tionable for the match. Luckily for the Apps, national qualifier Shomari Rozier will be back in ac­ tion for Tuesday's fray. Grapplers improve record Stephen Hensley Assitant Sports Editor The Mountaineer grap­ plers were in action on Jan. 20 with a pair of matches in Varsity Gym against Campbell and North Carolina -Greensboro. The Apps put Campbell down 31-18 then tied UNC-G 19-19. At the end of the day, the Mountaineers record was 2-5-1 for the season. The Mountaineers won matches in seven of the 10 weight classes contested versus Campbell. The afternoon started well for Appalachian which won the first five weight divisions, including pins by Mike Orris in the 1181b. class and Vinny Zullo at 1421bs. Jason Hooker took the 1671b. division with a pin 1:55 into his match. Appalachian also got wins from Damon Baldwin who won 12-6 wrestling at 1261bs. At 1341bs., Mountaineer Rubin Montano won 7-2. Jamie Nesbit picked up an 11-3 win wrestling Baldwin match including one pin. Nesbit, who moved up to the 158 lb. class after winning in the 150 lb. divi­ sion against Campbell, lost 3-1. UNC-G then won two more matches in a row and looked to be in control of the contest, but vic­ Men's track continued from page 13 the 200m at 21.9 seconds. "We're building up some solid performances so that we can really have a positive week­ end at the USAir invite next weekend," Fereshetian said of the big meet next weekend. It is there that the ASU team will add the impact of their distance run­ ners, as they have been training without racing until now. One distance runner did debut this weekend however. Chris Huffstickler of Steeple­ chase fame ran the 3000m in 8:46. "It was nice to get out on the track with some spikes on. They had been in my locker for the last eight months," Huffstickler said. Also notable were the arriv­ als of Jason Gibson and Raymond Brewer in the semi-finals of the hurdles. With 70 plus performers in said event, "It was nice to see two ASU jerseys in the semis," noted Fereshetian. Todd Poremba and Jeff Fitzgerald also vaulted themselves to quality perfor­ mances.

The debate surrounding the ref­ erendum on the Appalachian Community Environmental Stewardship (ACES) pro­ posal increased Tuesday when the "Vote No" campaign was launched. Supporters of the proposal responded by increasing their efforts. Proponents and opponents of ACES gathered outside the student union this week, passing out stickers and flyers. Student Government President J.D. Adams, along with other members of the SGA cabinet, is leading the campaign against ACES.

GingerWood ACC committee sweats details Allison Pennell Reporter 1 JL The site being studied for the con­ struction of the Appalachian Convocation Center will be the Stadium Parking Lot. This decision was made following meet­ ings in late December. The ACC committee met on Dec. 8 with Haycon-Corley, the assigned archi­ tectural firm, to discuss the Center's first conceptual layouts. Haycon-Corley had plans for a four-story building. The reason for this was to allow for everything that blight be needed in the future. The only concern The Appalachian is published with support from Appalachian's of the panel is the height of the building. Committee members do not think it should be taller than any of the residence halls in the vicinity. Haycon-Corley had inferred from meetings with the ACC committee that Appalachian wanted 8,921 bench seats, without chairbacks, in the arena. "Chair platforms would push the building outward," said Mark Corley, ar­ chitect with Haycon-Corley. "We worked with the tightest compact area possible and planned from that." Having chairbacks became a big concern. "Bleacher seating is horrendous if it is going to be used for concerts," said Dave Robertson, director of student pro­ <«A7 V 11 rnotc grams. "We can't sell bleacher seats. » "In this day and time I can't con­ ceive having all bleachers. We might as well keep Varsity Gym," another member of the committee said. Corley stated it is all hypotheti-' cal now. "The type of seating is an issue in itself," he said. Corley said bench seats take up 20 inches per person and having chairs on platforms would extend each side by 30 feet. This extension would cost $2.5 million more. "We are trying to stay within 170,000 square feet which is $112 a square foot," Corley said. Having chairs on platforms on both levels of the arena would be more OvnonCIVP than tO HlVtHp the kill of seat­ expensive than to divide kind ing, Corley said. "Chairs are $400 apiece and con­ struction costs are soaring now," Corley said. Vice Chancellor of Business Af­ fairs Jane Helm voiced her concern that 8,921 seats looked too small. She said she didn't think less than 9,000 seats to be feasible. "We definitely want so many (seats) with backs; perhaps 5,000 and 4,000 with bleacher style," Helm said. Director of Athletics Roachel Laney said that 8,921 seats is shortsighted in numbers and may not be adequate in the future for graduation.

News Editor Legislation for a standard attendance policy and a 24-hour computer lab are still in progress. Other academic affairs programs include Adopt-A-Book and Out­ standing Teacher Awards. Walters said he looks for­ ward to even more new ideas this semester. "One of the challenges of Student Government is keeping ideas flowing," he said. 'We want to make sure students' voices are heard." Alex Walters, academic affairs chair for the Student Gov­ ernment Association, can't wait to get his committee together. He said the students in committees are the strongest voices in Student Government. Walters, a fifth-year se­ nior, took on the position this se­ mester after the resignation of former Academic Affairs Chair Tripp Brown. "I'll have hard shoes to fill," Walters said. "Tripp did a very good job." Walters ated during the fall semester that would extend library hours. He said extra hours will really help students academically. Fo11 o w ing the library's closing over Mar­ tin Luther King holiday, Walters contacted University Librarian Mary Reichel about keeping the library open. Reichel said the li­ brary had shut down just as it does every university holiday because employees must be paid time and half. She didn't believe the usage would constitute the cost, Walters said. After serving as a SGA senator for one year and then as external affairs chair, Walters said he missed being as involved with Student Government. "I felt like I made a differ­ ence fas external affairs chair)...I grabbed it when the position (aca­ demic affairs chair) became avail­ able," Walters said.

Schimpf does not recall any damages, but he says objects like tires, hoses and coolers floated away. "The water came up to my thighs," Schimpf said. According to Shoun, more rain fell in the areas outside of Boone. Fourteen inches fell in the Foscoe area. The American Red Cross set up shelters at Watauga High School and Foscoe Christian Church to help those being evacu­ ated. Associate Vice Chancellor of Academic Affairs Clinton Parker was concerned about the number of people for graduation. He said if the arena only held 8,800 people, it would limit graduates to only four guests. "The academic space should not be touched," commit­ tee and faculty member Vaughn Christian said. Haycon-Corley said nothing should be taken away from the academic area.. The trade-offs, costwise for platform seating, could possi­ bly be the number of seats or the pool. Haycon-Corley said the pool and its roof structure is a big cost. The cost of the pool would be more than having 5,000 chair platform seats. The Varsity Gym pool in its present state is better than it has been in 15 years, Robertson said. Jerry Haire from the Town of Boone said a new pool is 0 per­ cent benefit to the community. "Parking is a real problem," Haire said. "ASU would get more flak about parking from the commu­ nity." A permanent parking so­ lution does not exist now. "We are looking at it," Helm said. "We need it (parking) every day." One solution was to even­ tually restrict underclassmen from parking on campus. This would only be considered if worse came to worse, one committee member said. Appalachian is known for allowing underclassmen to park on campus and "we don't want to change that," he said. Don't Walk Alone... Call Mountaineer Escort at 262-6438.

In a joint effort between Alumni Affairs and Jostens Inc., a new class ring is being developed to easily distinguish Appalachian alumni, students, faculty and staff, Randy Riddle, assistant director of Alumni Affairs for marketing and field activities, said the design of the ring is still in the works . A special committee com- prised of students, alumni, faculty and staff will play an active role in creating the design of the new ring. "The purpose of the ring is to easily identify alumni and students wherever they are," Riddle said. The cost of the ring will be in the same price range of a typical class ring. Other class rings are also available and may be bought instead of the new family ring, however both rings may be purchased. Riddle said he hopes the Appalachian Traditional Family ring will be available by next year and may be ordered through the bookstore.

This is a e idea, at least at first glance, that is the proposal's allure, \\'< /ever, it becomes necessary to at what ACES will cost, and, ed, whether or not the whole is appropriate. ACES propaganda lists ile reasons to support the stufees hike. One of the main s seems to be safety; some of money would pay for bike s, "allowing students to safely el" around Boone, and making method of transit "safer and e attractive." This is basically iod idea, although some may e that running over cyclers is 1 'de L, . tl -pr* -^tion r of f ^ a <^essive d acne, restaijn fVrxod is r-».^^-kora >iar«.terfi„!. n l x one of the more interesting oppor­ tunities available in Boone. Be­ sides, if we put in bike trails, mo­ torists would no doubt opt to drive on them instead of on the crowded roads. ' ACES supporters claim that the proposal would "ensure safe and clean water." The hysteri­ cal idea that a couple of houses will ruin our water is nothing less than the modern version of "the Free­ masons are poisoning the wells." So the main reason that ACES exists is to prevent Howard's Knob from being developed. You see, the land is for sale, and, like the literature says, if nothing is done, a "large unsightly subdivi­ sion" may be built up there on Howie's Hill. Clearly this would be a travesty- families carving out a niche for themselves, paying taxes and contributing to the local economy. Still, if you are opposed to expansion, there is merit in this argument. Upon close inspection, however, the rest of the rationales for ACES seem to experience a few leaps in logic. The fliers claim that ACES is a good thing because it's legal. Of course, income taxes are legal, too, but they aren't a lot of fun. Also, ACES proponents claim that if you disagree with sav­ ing the Knob, you can divert your money to the library. Apparently, our library is a shambles. Some­ how, I failed to notice this. I like our library. I've always found it sufficient. It's possible that it may be inadequate if you are writing a paper on, say, the social status of left-handed pipe-welders in Aztec society, but otherwise, it's fine. Another aim of ACES is supposed to be alleviating parking problems and congestion. The most effective way to do that may be to turn the Knob into a parking lot and connect it to campus by stringing a gondola from there down to Sanford Mall. This seems like a plausible idea, but it sort of contradicts the spirit of ACES, doesn't it? And finally, probably the most bone-headed reason to sup­ port ACES is that it promises to Nick Biddle Guest Columnist ASU students are not apa­ thetic, they are working hard to pass the ACES initiative. ACES stands for Appalachian Commu­ nity & Environmental Steward­ ship. ACES stands for safeguard- POINT/ COUNTERPOINT Mike Cleaves is a junior History major and opposes the proposed ACES fee. Nick Biddle is an associate professor in the History Department and is in favor of ACES. "provide a number of well devel­ oped outdoor recreational oppor­ tunities for students (hiking, bik­ ing, climbing, sightseeing, etc.)." I almost hate to make fun of this one; it's too easy a shot. However, I feel compelled to point out that if you have trouble finding a place to do these activities around here, you might as well drop out of school now and apply for a career as the thirdstring french fry guy at one of the better-known hamburger estab­ lishments. So, having cut through the flowery prose, let's look at the bot- see ACES ing Howard's Knob, for creating al­ ternative transportation and build­ ing our library's collection. Stu­ dents will vote from 10:00 am to 5:00 pm in the Welborn Cafeteria on February 1 and 2 to approve a $10.00 per semester student fee for ACES. I support ACES, and so should you. Appalachian State Univer­ sity sits underneath Howard's Knob, a dramatic promontory fall­ ing away on the east side to the North Carolina piedmont.

The text read: "There's a difference between interested and commitment. When you're interested in doing something, you do it only when it is convenient. When you're committed to something, you accept no excuses, only results. I'm committed. ARE YOU?" The word "commitment" was brought up several times during our fall semester and we were charged to keep this in mind at all times. It is for this reason that I write The Appalachian. In my book, commitment must be defined differently than in J.D. Adams'book. It seems to me that our jobs as members of the Student Government Association at ASU is to make changes that the students want, and changes that the students initiate. With this in mind, does it not seem odd to you that our esteemed president has not yet passed one piece of legislation to benefit the population that he serves? In fact, he is not even in support of the only studentinitiated piece of legislation brought onto the floor this year. I found it interesting to read in the SGA newsletter what we as senators had accomplished this year. It seems that J.D. and his cabinet deemed issues like an "all you can eat" offer with Food Services and the fall block party more important than the single most talked about issue in senate meetings. In fact, this issue, ACES, failed to make the cut in being addressed at all in the SGA newsletter. In closing, I would like to present J.D. Adams and his cabinet with a charge. Webster defines "commitment" as "a pledge or promise; obligation."Asa senator in the Student Government Association, I have made a pledge to my constituents to keep them informed, to voice their opinions, and to represent their ideas. I have made a promise I intend to uphold to SGA and to my constituents. J.D., may I ask exactly to whom and to what are you committed? I'm committed. ARE YOU?

Just when it looked like the days of Jim Crow were behind us as a country, this came along. Many were concerned that the average citizen would start dis criminating against ALL Hispanics, regardless if they were immi­ grants or not. Reports over the past couple of months have done little to assuage these fears. There are plenty of stories that show people aren't even bothering to look for a green card before acting. One girl reported that a pizza delivery man refused to deliver her food to her because she was Hispanic. Another, who is an Ameri­ can citizen, was not given medi­ cal care because she had no proof of citizenship on her. What's next? Special water fountains for citi­ zens and non-citizens? If I had Posters, Prints, Framing & More!

Yet, for Hispanics, that apparendy isn't enough. It looks like they need to have their birth cer­ tificates and everything else with them just to walk around in the West. While Prop. 187 is currently tied up in the courts and will never become a real law (I hope), it points to a greater problem in American society today.

The luncheon was followed by an open discussion directed by Barbara Stewart director of African American Student Development. Among the questions discussed were whether Dr. King's dream is still valid today and what the students and faculty at Appalachian can do to further his dream. S[ewart felt th at thou8h there were not a great many students in attendance it was j certainly a good start. Once we get farther along with more refined programming I think things will come together." Si Fei on en thi Students on the King Commemorative Committee chose the theme of this year's commemoration, which was "Keep the Dream Alive." Christy Garland, a sophomore, said that "King's dream still has validity, but people today have forgotten about the struggles that people in the '60s went through." Cindy Wallace of I ^ ' TT the Learning Assistance Program, agrees. "In the '60s, there were more physical signs, such I T as separate water fountains and 'black sections' in restaurants if _ they were allowed in at all. Today, the problems are far more abstract." 'The challenge is ,, r „ " to choose to look beyond LU cnoose the surface, said Diane White, coordinator of the Gospel Choir. "The frustration of African American students is often caused because we can see the injustices [that are still happening] and others can't, because they're not experiencing them." m« m< lin he th W gc de n<| ui tr at f temberMaitin 4 LUthei" ^ ^ Commemoration Committee usually convenes in Sep- Stewart said that the committee "welcomes any and all input, including student faculty, and next year, the community, as well."

The production will run from January 18-22,1995, in the Valborg Theatre on the Appalachian campus. "Oleanna" is a coproduction of Charlotte Repertory Theatre and Appalachian's Department of Theatre and Dance. In Mamet s latest work, a male profes­ sor and his female student meet to dis­ cuss her grades and in a short time be­ come the participants on a modern reprise of the Inquisition. Innocuous remarks suddenly turn damning.

Cook was suspended because "he failed to meet academic requirements" said Roachel Laney, Appalachian Athletic Director. According to Laney, Cook violated individual requirements set forth by Appalachian's athletic department, not by the NCAA. Laney went on to explain the deci­ sion process that went into Cook's suspen­ sion. "I don't think it [the decision to sus­ pend] was one person's, it was an agree­ ment. There was an understanding that certain academic requirements were to be met and if they were not, then certain sanctions would be imposed to see that the understanding was upheld." Laney said there were no precondi­ tions to Cook's return, "only that he meet the academic and athletic expectations you would have of a student athlete." According to sources close to team, Cook missed classes on Wednesday, Jan. 11.

The loss of 3ok for three imes means the lountaineers are bt only without selor leadership, but |so without his 14.5 3ints per game [econd on the team) and 31.5 minutes per game. Cook is not the only men's basketball player to fin into trouble with academic problems. Before the pason or even the school year started, the Mountain­ eers lost four players, academics played a role in at [ast three of those losses. As reported in The Appalachian (August 25), |hayim Cunningham, Billy Shepherd, Tremayne Rooks, ad Nod Carter all did not return to Appalachian at [w beginning of the 1994-95 school year. Tom Apke, head coach of Appalachian men's bas­ ketball, explained that Cunningham's reason for leavpg was "he really got legitimately homesick for Chiago." With the other three, grades were a factor that lead to the departures. Shepherd "was concerned about the strain being a member of a basketball team was putting on his academics," according to Apke. Carter and Rooks left the team because of more acute academic problems both were suffer­ ing. According to Laney, there is no connection be­ tween Cook's suspension and the loss of the Carter, Rooks, and Shepherd. "William Cook was in good a c a d e m i c standing and eligibility status to participate, some of these other individu­ als did not meet there require­ ments, so that's separate from Cook all to­ gether. Each one of those individuals had reasons and circum­ stances that would warrant addressing each one individually," Laney said. According to Laney, the loss of Carter, Rooks, and Shepherd are not only isolated from the cur­ rent William Cook situation, but isolated from each other. 1 hey may all be isolated incidents, but the fact is they are all isolated around academic deficien­ cies. That is not to say that the men's basketball program is unable to keep their players academi­ cally eligible. The fact is Cook's suspension did not come from the NCAA.

Sparked by a pair of Beth Kilby free throws that tied the game at 50 with seven minutes gone in the second, Appalachian used a smaller lineup to shed the pesky Wildcats behind a 20-2 run. Sophomore Melissa Davis dropped in two straight goals during the streak, while Merideth Thompson, who was shaken up badly enough on a slash to the basket to war­ rant a brief trip to the sideline, added four points of her own. Maaret Artosalo performed well off of the bench, scoring nine points and claiming four rebounds. Kilby led ASU to their first conference win this season and an overall 9-3 mark, with a game-high 17 points, which included three-of-seven shooting from behind the bonus arc. In the Mountaineers' first conference game Saturday, Jan 14, a late second half surge by Appalachian fell short and Furman's Paladins escaped Varsity with a 72-70 win. Despite a 17-point, eight-rebound ef­ fort by freshman center Tiana Tate, and a deluge of Kilby treys (five) that matched last weekend's nonstop downpour in Boone, the Paladins (5-8) held fast to a slim lead throughout the game. Following an App time-out at the 1:20 mark of the second half, Tate scored from deep in the paint to pull the Moun­ taineers within three, at 69-66. Furman's Natasha Jackson answered with a quick see Lady Apps page 16 Apps lose on road and at home Stephen Hensley Assitant Sports Editor The Appalachian men's basketball team started their 1995 Southern Confer­ ence campaign Saturday on the road at Marshall. The Thundering Herd, under first-year coach Billy Donnovan, trampled the road-weary Mountaineers, 93-80. The loss marked the end of a six-game holi­ day road trip for Appalachian in which the squad lost five of six and fell to 3-10 for the year. Rebounding was the key for the Herd, as they pulled down a total of 43 caroms compared to only 28 for the Mountain­ eers. Marshall's pressure defense was also a factor as the Apps had trouble getting their offense in gear. Chad McClendon turned in another all-conference performance for Appala­ chian with 17 points and five rebounds. Kareem Livingston also stepped up for the Mountaineers with16 points on 5-8 shoot­ ing. Conspicuously absent from the scor­ ing column for Appalachian was Will Cook. The Marshall game was the first of Cook's three game academic suspension. The senior guard would be missed again as the Apps faced East Tennessee Mon­ day night. The Mountaineers took their home court for the first time in over a month to battle the conference rival Bucs in front of a crowd of 3,318.

Sweeping 2nd through 4th were Jason Gibson, Raymond Brewer, and Clarence Sutton. Coach Fereshetian said he was delighted to have Jason back with >the team, as Jason spent much of his first semester in the hospital. Other notable performances came at the feet of Bob Mahoney, who in his inaugural run with the ASU team ran 2:36 in the 1000m and a 51.8 split on his leg of the 4X400m. Bobby Horan also split a 51.8 in the 4X400, both very fast considering the tight turns of Vir­ ginia Tech's dilapidated track. The ASU team will take the lessons learned at Virginia Tech and apply them to the workouts of the next month. With each week, the work put in will surface as the throws get longer, jumps higher and longer, and times shorter.

Poose transferred to Appala­ chian from Brevard College in the fall of 1993. He went on to make an immediate impact on the team by easily outleaping all of his com­ petition in 1994, ending the sea­ son nationally ranked 20th. However, 1994 held its share of problems for Poose as well. Ankle problems kept him from jumping as much as he wanted and from fulfilling his physical poten­ tial. In the outdoor track season, Appalachian lost the Southern Conference championship by a single point, thus ending their shot at the triple crown of track. "It was a disappointment," Poose said about last season.

The Mountaineers got off to a great start on Nov. 19 by winning their own Mountaineer Open. The Apps took five first-place finishes and placed 7 other wrestlers. However, since that time, the Apps have sustained injuries to key people in every weight class, ineluding the only three seniors on the team-Jason Hooker, Mike Orris, and Shomari Rozier. On Nov. 26 ASU competed in the North Carolina Open, only placing two wrestlers, but bounced back a week later, finishing third out of nine teams in the Rochester (N.Y.) Open. Eight wrestlers placed in that tournament. ASU then faced Maryland and N.C. State in the Wolfpack Duals on Dec. 10. ASU lost both meets 15-24 and 10-24, respectively. The team then traveled south to compete in the Sunshine Open in Tampa, Fla. on Dec. 29-30. The Apps finished sixth out of 14 teams, including some nationally-ranked opponents, The grapplers then ventured to Atlanta, Ga. to take on Georgia State on Jan. 3. The team lost a tough meet, having to forfeit two weight classes. Finally, the Mountaineers traveled to Hampton,Va. on Jan. 13 to take on Syracuse, Clemson, and Edinboro, three outstanding teams. The Apps dropped the first meet to Syracuse 23-15, then came back to beat Clemson in the second meet 22-19, but dropped the final meet 32-15 versus Edinboro.

Students can pick up keys to their apartment from 1-5 p.m. or from 9-11 p.m. until Dec. 16 said Brad Reid, director of Housing Operations. "Students can move at their convenience before or after final exams," Reid said. "But residence halls must be vacated before Christmas break." The reason for the completion delay was due to efforts to complete units A and B of the complex before the contract with High Country Inn expired, said Reid. "All the people power went in to A and B," Reid said. Vice Chancellor tor Business Affairs Jane Helm said aitnougn tne inside will be ready for occupants, the outside stucco finishing can not be completed until tempera­ tures rise. "We corrected any problems, if there were any, and replaced any dripping sprin­ kler heads," said Reid. A resolution for a faulty sprinkler head which erupted in late September is in final stages to reimburse students and the university. "It is in the process of being resolved," said Reid. Students with property affected by the water damage will be reimbursed by the subcontracter, Carolina Sprinkler Company, said Reid. "I have a verbal agreement with President Dean Bush that they will reimburse students and the university for damages," Reid said. Reid said he has drafted a letter with an itemized list of damages from the students to send to the architect, plumbing contractor and its subcontractor, Carolina Sprinkler Company, so they may begin reimbursements for the damage, according to Reid. "Students have been very cooperative," Reid said. "They have items to be exam­ ined in case the sprinkler company wants to examine them," Reid added. University damages included a loss of four mattresses, ceiling damage, and three hours of staff time, Reid said. Students' damages included stained clothes, ruined text books, posters and one stereo system. Units C and D of Appalachian Heights Apartments have been completed and students will be moving in today, (photo by Jason Fox) Trustees briefed on ACES, ACC Manya Brachear News Editor The Appalachian State University Board Of Trustees held their quarterly meeting Friday with Vice Chairman Wayne Duncan presiding. Chairman Kenneth Wilcox was absent due to the death of his son-in-law Duane Triplett last Thursday. The Board took action on four items, granting emeritus status to retired Profes­ sors of Music H. Max Smith and Elmer White. The Board also approved Dr. Wil­ liam D. Brewer, associate professor of En­ glish, for the 1995 Board of Trustees Travel/Study Grant to research English novelist Charlotte Smith at her estate in Sussex, England. Dr. Frank Mohler of the Theatre and Dance department was the last professor to receive the $3,000 award to research 17th century technology in scenery at the Biblioteca Palatina in Parma, Italy. The Board of Trustees also approved an annual allocation of $100,000 from the university's Endowment Fund to refurbish faculty offices. Chancellor Francis T. Borkowski also briefed the Board on the Appalachian Community and Environmental Steward­ ship. "I am very sympathetic with the stu­ dents and the efforts to save Howard's Knob," Borkowski said. "I'm concerned with the legacy 40 or 50 years from now." Borkowski also announced the univer­ sity would formulate a university planning commission to help determine state bud- Greek officers elected IFC, PHC officers set goals John Lane Reporter The Interfratemity and Panhellenic Councils have elected new officers to serve in the spring and fall semesters of 1995. Chris Northcutt, of Sigma Nu fraternity was elected President of I.F.C. Jessica Edens, of Kappa Delta sorority was elected as Panhellenic's new President. Both have extensive records in their own Greek organizations. Edens was Kappa Delta's pledge representative to Junior Panhellenic, and also served as her sorority's Vice-President-Panhellenic. She has experience on the Greek Leadership Conference, and she is currently holding the office of Parliamentarian in Kappa Delta. Northcutt served as the Alumni Con­ tact for Sigma Nu in 1993-94. He is cur­ rently president of his fraternity. She will also try to improve concerns of all women on campus. "Women's con­ cern issues need to draw more awareness, such as date rape," Edens said. She hopes to have programs presented by the Greek system as a whole about such issues. Northcutt has already started on one of his agenda items, which is to expand the Greek system, Northcutt said. "We will have at least one more na­ tional fratenity colonize at ASU before the end of the spring semester," he said. Northcutt also hopes to bring Greek housing to campus. He hopes to bring consistency to the plan that has been pro­ posed for many years. "Interest seems to go up and down when people realize it won't be done while they, are here," Northcutt explained. A common goal of Edens and Northcutt is to better unite the Greek system. "One person cannot do it alone," said Edens. Through group projects and delegation throughout the system, the Greeks may better serve Appalachian, she said. Even though both new leaders know that not all the programs they start will be complete when they graduate, they hope to have helped the school and have something to return to as alumni. 1995IFC/PHC Officers Interfraternitv Council: Chris Northcutt (Sigma Nu) President Aaron Bachenheimer (Pi Kappa Phi) V.P Alumni Matt Godfres (Sigma Phi Epsilon) V.P.

He said the results of the November election have raised concerns for the university budget. He said he perceived that not only bud­ get cuts but inflation has also raised the price tag on the Appalachian Convocation Center to $30 million. "This is going to be a challenging pe­ riod for us," he said. The Business Affairs Committee also presented a preliminary review of pro­ posed fee increases for the 1995-6 aca­ demic year. Developer moving with Knob plans Ken Larking Reporter Monte Green, the current owner of most of Howard's Knob, is in the process of getting approval from Watauga County Planning and Inspections to develop the area. The Trust for Public Land and student activists have been trying to collect funds to purchase his land on Howard's Knob via a student fee. Hunter Schofield, Boone Town Coun­ cil member and part-time student at Ap­ palachian State University, said negotia­ tions can not begin until after the refer­ endum, in order to establish a stable source of funding. "Unfortunately none of the groups have come through," Green said. "I hon­ estly hope that it can be turned into a park or recreation area." Joe Furman, Director of Planning and Inspections for Watauga Co. said Green has received "masterplan approval" for the development, the first step toward devel­ oping land. According to Furman, Green needs to get a grading permit to build roads, pre­ liminary plat approval, final plat approval, See Knob page 4 J1* Appalachian is published with support from Appalachian's Center for Student Involvement and Leadership.

In contrast, the African-American population at Appalachian State University hovers at four percent of the stu­ dent population," according to the recently released report from the Chancellor's Committee on Diver­ sity. In addition to faculty recruit­ ment and retention, the report touched on steps to recruit and maintain minorities in graduate and undergraduate student popu­ lations. Ro Fe on en' thi The committee's reports sug­ gest seeking funds to continue the Access to Graduate Education for Minorties (AGEM) program in or­ der to spread the word about graduate studies at Appalachian. Each department would also be encouraged to set goals for minor­ ity graduate enrollment, as well as work toward those goals by net­ working with historically black in­ stitutions and encourage junior me m< lin he th W gc de and senior undergraduate minori­ ties to continue graduate studies at Appalachian. The committee also suggests creating competitive financial packages, a result of increasing all graduate student stipends equal to other graduate schools, as well as increasing the amount of minor­ ity student funding, both internal and external grants. Minority alumni would also be encouraged to establish graduate scholarships for minority students. Minority students pursuing the far­ thest levels of education should be supported financially in exchange for a commitment to return to Ap­ palachian as faculty or staff. Concerning undergraduate en­ rollment, the committee suggests several steps to make the univer­ sity more accessible to minorities. One suggestion in the report is to begin a special open house pro­ gram for minorities where select high school and community col­ lege students would be invited on campus for a day of tours, special interest sessions, academic infor­ mation programs and college pre­ paratory workshops. The report also suggests provid­ ing transportation for students and parents to visit Appalachian as well as special information about mi­ nority resources to be distributed to high shools and community col­ leges. A summer pre- college outreach program for nine to 18-year-olds would identify minority students and provide them with academic and motivational assistance neces­ sary to pursue a college career. "Anticipated outcomes of the programs...will include enhanced self-esteem and social skills...enhanced pride in educa­ tional achievement and learning, parental involvement and in­ creased availablity of resources," the report states. The report points out that un­ nc dergraduate recruitment also re­ lies on the availability of finanical aid for underrepresnted groups, such as merit awards and needbased scholarships. The report suggests more aid for students that offer renewable support and emergency funds for students in crisis. Simultaneous with recruitment of minority graduate and under­ graduate students, the report makes a point to outline the fol­ lowing five steps for retention: • Expand Academic Retention Pro­ grams such as the Learning Assis­ tance Program. • Diversify the climate initiated by the Center for Student Involve- If you ^ ment and Leadership, Student Pro­ grams and Cultural Programs. • Develop programs that will in­ crease the sensitivity of faculty, staff and students to others. • Work to increase and expand fi­ nancial assistance for continuing students such as finding supple­ mentary funds to governmental agency programs and training fi­ nancial aid counselors to assist minority students, especially firstgeneration college students. • Increase the availabilty of stu­ dent support services with knowl­ edgeable and skilled personnel for all students.

"We eased our way into this," Walters said. Through this program, clubs can donate $45 toward buying a tree for the campus and the physi­ cal plant will match the funds, said Student Government Exter­ nal Affairs Chair Jason Kincaid. The checks are written to Student Government, and Business Affairs transfers the money to the physi­ cal plant. The physical plant is in charge of purchasing and plant­ ing the trees. Supervisor of Grounds Jim Bryan said they primarily look at several trees. "We like to choose the dogwoods, the sugar and red maples, or one of the flowering ornamental cherry trees," Bryan said. They concentrate on the sugar maple, though. If students have a request, the physical plant will look at each one case by case. If it is low-maintenance, they will consider it, Bryan said. The trees purchased last year have been planted in front of Gardner and Coltrane Halls. Some clubs have wanted to choose their own sites. Kincaid said they will be allowed to do this as long as the areas aren't re­ stricted. "They are excited about this program," Kincaid said. This year, six organizations are involved with "Plant A Tree," Kincaid said. Kappa Chi Chapter of Alpha Kappa Psi, Alpha Chi, and Phi Beta Lambda (Beta Phi Chap­ ter) have already given checks for the program. The External Affairs Committee, Watauga Assembly, and the Student Council for Excep­ tional Children have commited. Kincaid has received several calls from people who requested this program be expanded to alumni. "It's a wonderful way to help," Kincaid said.

The new sysof recycling involves the ekeeping staff for the first since the program began five s ago, said Director For ronme nt and Safety Jim Rice, ice said the full bins are go­ to be taken to a storage area emptied later and new, empty will be brought back in daily he housekeeping staff. We are very, very happy that housekeepers are doing this," Rice. yhen the paper recycling prom began five years ago, the jnds workers were in charge of jtying the containers of paper, grounds workers naturally cover emptying the containers cans when the program was anded to include aluminum said Rice, lice said unfortunately the jnds workers could not empty bins daily and so the containwould overflow into the halls. "Once this system is up and working in Raley Hall, then we want to expand it to the other buildings," said Rice. Rice said he hopes this new sys­ tem, with the help of the house­ keeping staff, will be more effi­ cient. "I'll reserve judgement on that until I see how it works," said Gail Stewart of the housekeeping staff in Raley Hall. The recycling program is im­ portant because of a law banning the disposal of aluminum cans in landfills and a mandate which states all state agencies have to recycle, said Rice. "It's (the recycling program) recognized as one of the more ef­ fective programs in the North Carolina University System, said Rice. Rice said that he hopes to gradually expand the can recycling program on campus so bins are as easy to find as a trash can. "We're looking for every logi­ cal place a recycling bin can be placed," said Rice. Recycle bins are located in Rankin, Whitener, Sanford, Duncan, Chapell Wilson, Kerr Scott, and Walker Halls. New recycling bins are now in place in the College of Business. The new bins are part of a new program sponsored in part by SGA.

Can't anything be done on time? If alumni were to fund all construction, would it be done faster? That McKinney center is being built almost overnight. 2) One thing these delays can't be blamed on is the weather. Can you be­ lieve we're a week into December and nary a snowflake has fallen? I thought this was supposed to be a harsh winter yet it's still warm enough to wear shorts. It just goes to show that even Woolly Worms can be wrong from time to time. 3) The talk this semester has been about ACES, a controversial new attempt by local environmentalists to halt con­ struction on Howard's Knob. I have just one question. If it were to pass and over half the student body decides to send their This leads to one of the reasons this can be called a successful semester for the newspaper. The new installment of the op-ed page brought the voice of out­ siders into these pages. Many letters and guest columns were received. It is obvi­ ous that there are opinions on the cam­ pus, and people are not afraid to express them. The students and faculty of ASU utilized this page to its fullest. Various worthwhile letters were submitted, and hopefully, those of you who took the time to write were happy to see it in The Appa­ lachian. It is one thing to have an opin­ ion; it is another to let others see it in print. The Appalachian hopes to have as much response in the Spring, but it would be great to receive even more if possible. The Appalachian staff hopes that readers enjoyed the newspaper this fall since a lot of hard work and effort was put into it each and every week. The new year's resolution is to make next semester even more successful than this one.

After being picked to finish in the middle of the conference pack, the team hit the gridiron, beat the number one team in the nation and, if not for an inter­ ception, would have won the con­ ference title. The fans appreciated the season's effort and so did I. They'll do better next time, though a 9-4 record is go­ ing to be hard to beat. 5) Over­ heard at Boone Drug- "Hey, did ya hear the news? They killed Jeffery Dahmer in prison?"..."Do you think it was OJ?"..."No, I think it was that woman in South Carolina." 6) Forget bonds and stocks, the time to invest in land is now. Not only could you incite some environmentalists to force the university to buy it at an ex­ aggerated amount, you could also turn a nice buck by building a parking lot and selling spaces. With a convocation center in the works, residence halls being built and ex­ panded and enrollment scheduled to in­ crease a few hundred, will there soon BE any place to park? What is the university thinking? A lot of good new buildings will do if people can't park within the zip code to ac­ cess them. 7) Here's an­ other get- rich scheme.

When asked his opinion on the attendance policy, Mike Hagerty, member of the Academic Affairs committee, said, "As a fresh­ man I would have had the same attitude as I did in high school. I would have thought I could learn by myself and I wouldn't have gone to class. I don't support this piece of legislation." Most freshmen and some upperclassmen need incentive and strict rules on class attendance or they would not be there. Mike also commented that, "Students need an attendance policy at least during their core classes to learn that they need to go. Freshmen need to learn what college is about before they are handed this responsibility." Faculty member Randy Swing also stands on the opposing side of the attendance policy de­ bate. He makes a good point by saying, "Understanding and learning is not wholly from the book." Students need to attend classes to contribute and benefit from class discus­ sion.

Several months ago, J.J. was inolved in a dispute with a police officer hat ended up sentencing him to 90 days n jail. The key word here is dispute, not issault. Countless numbers of Lambda ]hi Alpha brothers and associate memiers witnessed what courts say was an issault on a police officer. Let's recount what so many claim on that night of Oct. 18,1994. Klein, being of sound mind and body, was responsible for driving what the fraternity calls "beeper" or designated driver. Upon arriving at Kingswood Apart­ ments, Klein preceeded to find the pas­ sengers who requested the services of the headquarters and then an APB was put out for Klein's arrest. Upon arriving at the jailhouse, J.J. was questioned and thrown in jail. He was released on $300 bond. If you noticed in my description of the "crime" scene, there was no mention of an assault on police officers. This is not a clever design to leave out the im­ portant imformation, but an explanation to the fraud of Boone Police. An associ­ ate member of Lambda Chi Alpha acompanied J.J. to the police station af­ ter the incident where, for the first time to his knowledge, the officer claimed that Klein had kicked him in the leg during the Kingswood incident. It appears that the cop lied to save himself from an embarassing situation. The cops let Klein go free, then put an APB out on him when the officer finally realized that his shin hurt and it must have been J.J.'s fault. Furthermore, the courts and legal beeper.

The old ritual of David and Goliath, the underdog overcoming, the march down King Street; old news apparently. The headline read: APPS0LUTE CHOKE (Nov. 22). Previously The Appalachian did nothing but praise the football team. If we lost, we lost, but it was always a team effort, including the student body. When the going is good, it is always WE. But when the going gets a little tough it becomes a solo effort. So what if tickets had to be refunded and plans changed? If you are a true fan you're along for the ride; the ups and the downs. Granted, I am a firm believer in freedom of the press. As journalists it is your job to report the news. However, in doing so, one must assume responsibility for what is written. I noticed that the author of the piece was the entire Appalachian staff. Very rarely do I have anything other than praises for The Appalachian, but being a true fan, I must emphasize that this was the best season our football team has had since 1989. They surely must have done something right. In closing, I would like to congratulate the 1994 ASU football team on a winning season. I would personally like to thank them for a job well done and for giving our school a little more publicity than usual. And to the question, "What will next year's squad be like?" Well it this year was any indication they'll be an APPS0LUTE SUCCESS. Candace Y. Roberts ASU Box 14060 Parking deck is not the answer Sexual harassment: All men are not threats J. Patrick Moss 3uest Columnist I am writing in response to 'anessa Urruella's article about Sexual Harassment (Sexual Harassment: A gray area, Dec, 6). The gray area | where the article went s just fom talking about sexual harassment, and went to alking about perceiving all men as threats. Don't get me wrong, I know that I really can't sympathize all that much with what some women go through, but I do get a little perturbed every time the male sex gets verbally lashed just because we are physically bigger than -x~*d mean women. i of their'. Urruella would have that' us know that all men are potential rapists "because they are usu­ ally stronger than women and because of their sexual anatomy, this statement is absolutely true." I'm sure it brightened the day for every man who read this ar­ ticle to know that he has the potential to commit a heinous crime. Urruella tries to soften the blow by saying that not every roan is a rapist or even wants to be, but ixif the potential is still there. What was the point of bringing this up? Every woman is a potential mur­ derer or thief, just because they are physi­ cally able to commit these acts. That doesn't mean that they will, or want to, but isn't it nice to know that you can? I don't like being branded a potential crimi­ nal. threatened. I will agree with this, but again what is the point? It so happens that I was approached by a gay friend of mine. Yes, I did feel threatened. Do I win a cookie? It was unpleasant, but it didn't change anything. I still have gay friends, and I'm not afraid of them. I'm not saying that you need to have a "This could never happen to me" attitude, but you shouldn't have a "This is going to happen to me" attitude. Urruella would feel threatened by me, even though she doesn't know me, just because I am a man. I feel insulted that she would view me that way just be­ cause of what some men do, some five percent of men. Evil is inherent to some of mankind, and not just to the male half. Until there is a Utopia on this planet, that will probably be the case. You can't protect yourself by living in fear all the time. Urruella did not enlighten us with this article, in fact I would go so far as to say that she is spreading the worst kind of propaganda. Just look at the "pose a threat" quote. She is spreading fear. Fear seeds hatred. It's not my fault that I was born with this genitalia. Blame God, or evolution, which ever one you believe in. "I'm not saying that you need to have a 'This could never happen to me' attitude, but you shouldn't have a 'This is going to happen to me' attitude. rn L. L^ll Hoi flat L1 s Q $ <|yii rxe ^ r#f ' aia ^ l^oli 3 1 1 -CI' This article is basically urging all women to be afraid of all men. "I'm not saying that all (men) are criminals. Just that they have a greater possibility of be­ ing one than a woman and thus, they pose a threat." This is a brilliant piece of logic. Five percent of men commit rape, so let's view all of them as dangerous. Urruella says that it would take a male to make another male feel sexually Attendance continued from page 6 When a student is not responsible enough to attend class he is wasting money. On average a student pays $4000 (a year) in tuition and books and takes five courses per semester. His investment is $800 per course. For Tuesday and Thursday classes it costs him twenty five dollars per class. Why is my fellow students' class attendance my business? I have an in­ vestment in him as well. Students pay only 15 to 20 percent of their in-state tuition. My tax money pays the rest. That is 100 dollars each time he meets or misses that Tuesday and Thursday class. Irresponsible class skipping due to no attendance policy leads to students fail­ ing courses. The government wastes enough of my money already, so SGA should not pass this bill to allow students to do the same with it. To the Editor: This letter concerns parking and some of the comments made by Mr. Roy Tugman in "Students vent frustration to campus police," (Dec. 1,). I truly hope that the future of Appalachian State holds a lot more than a parking deck. This mentality continues to treat the symptoms and not the causes. Appalachian does not need more parking spaces, it needs fewer cars. Just look around this small town and all you will see is cars, cars and more cars. I cannot believe that we would actually spend six million dollars on a car deck! Allowing more people to have cars on campus will only encourage more people to drive and traffic will be even more of a nightmare! Wouldn't it be crazy if we spent six million dollars on the library? But then again, we are not here to learn. What if we spent six million dollars to improve the Appalcart system? I'm sure we are all tired of riding the "short bus" and would love a new modern fleet of nice buses. Maybe if we took off public safety's sunglasses we could see the dollar signs in their eyes.

These students did an excellent job of scheduling donors prior to the bloodmobile, advertising on campus, and staffing the canteen. The bloodmobile greatly exceeded the required goal of blood collected. The regional blood supply is at critically low levels so the success of this blood drive is especially appreciated. Thank you also to those from ASU and the community who gave the gift of life at this bloodmobile. We do apologize for the delay in getting started Nov. 21 due to the bloodmobile truck from Winston-Salem arriving late. Thank you also for your patience while waiting to give blood.

The highlight of Allen's interest came to him while working on a history project involving a so rial agency.

"Ever since that point, I've been very commit­ ted to the organization," Allen said. Many of the 1 people helped by the coalition are elderly whose income is not enough to cover their needs. It is the mission of the Coalition to meet the emergency hunger needs of the commu­ nity. The Coalition is a growing organization.

These are just a few of the nations being represented on the International Hall located on the first floor of East Residence Hall. These students face different ob­ stacles daily from trying to fit in with other students to adjusting to life in America without their families surrounding them. Naooaf Aliudaini,a second semester freshman, is from Kuwait. Aliudaini, a second semester fresh­ man, says that for the first couple of weeks, he felt like an outsider. 'Those few weeks were difficult," he says, "but after being exposed to the friendliness of the people, I decided I would make the best of it." When asked what was the biggest adjustment he had to make, Aliudaini said it was the weather. "In Kuwait, it never snows. I had never seen it snow until I came here. It gets so cold!" Another adjustment he has had to make is being without his family. "I see them maybe twice a year, in the summer and at Christmas." Another exchange student, Ibon Valverde, is origi­ nally from Spain. A junior, Valverde says he loves the Boone environment, but that is not his favorite as­ pect of college life. "The school spirit is so different here," says Valverde. "In Spain, we have no school spirit. We just go to school and can't wait to get out, but here, ev­ erybody is so enthused about the pride of the Moun­ taineers. It seems like everyone is excited about our team. " The main difference that Valverde sees academi­ cally between Spain and his stay here in Boone is the work load. Says Valverde, "Here, the work is easier, but there is much more of it to do." Valverde's roommate, David Wainer, is not an exchange student. However, he and friend Mike Ruff help the students with any problems they may have. Ruff, a freshman, says that he helps his roommate, who is from Russia, adjust to the everyday campus life. Wainer, a junior, says that he helps his room­ mate adjust as well. For Wainer, living on the International Hall has been an enlightening experience for him. 'There is no other place I'd rather be," says Wainer. "It is such a unique experience." " I think it's an educational experience as well as a motivational experience, not only for Americans but for the international students as well," he said. Sosa, Ruff, and Wainer all agree that everyone who has the chance should live on the International Hall. Of course not everyone on the International Hall is actually an international student. For example, Arthur Sosa, a senior and Aliudaini roommate, is from see Melting Pot page 9 Page and Plant get the 'Led Jeff Leek Though pleased with the show, fa. |.

The Apps easily captured their second victory of the season, defeating the Division II opponent 96-70. The win took the Moun­ taineers' record to 2-4 overall and 2-1 at Varsity Gym. The Mountaineers came out strong in the first half and jumped out to an early lead mainly due to the team's 61.2 per­ cent shooting. After struggling offensively early in the season, scoring only 73.6 points per game and shooting 42.1 per­ cent from the field, Appalachian lit up the Fightin' Christian to take a 47-29 half-time lead. The Mountaineers also rebounded well against Elon in the first half, pulling down 26 boards compared to only 12 for the Christians. The physical presence of Clint Crosston and Chad McClendon inside pushed the smaller and less athletic Elon post players off the blocks. The second half was more of the same for the Apps, coming out and extending their lead to 35 at one point in the second half. Coach Apke was pleased that his team kept up their intensity considering the size of their lead. After a well played game, the starters stepped aside to give experience to the reserves in the waning minutes as the Mountaineers captured their second win. The story of the game , however, may not have been the outcome, but instead the improved play of the Appalachian bench and, in particular, the play of Tige Darner. The freshman scored 16 points in Other reserves stepped into the lime­ 21 minutes of play Monday night.

The 'triple crown' is the catch phrase for winning all three Southern Conference running championships. Like last year's season, the cross country team started the three stage process by winning their championship this October. Last year's team won the first two jewels, only to have the outdoor title stolen from the team in the last event of the meet. Every­ one has learned since then though. Leading the trek towards the possible Southern Conference win are a number of talented competitors. In the triple jump, Papoose Johnson looks to not only to win the Southern Conference (which he did easily in the 1994 outdoor season), but also qualify for the NCAA national indoor meet in Indianapolis. 'Poose quali­ fied provisionally for the triple jump last year with his 52'9" combination. Also off the track is veteran thrower, Rich Grant. Grant's usual event is the he considers the shorter distances to be hammer throw, however, there are few more in his range of events.

Lennox Lewis earned $3.5 million for losing to Oliver "just a sparring partner" McCall in September, while McCall him­ self took home $1 million. Shaquille O'Neal, the Orlando Magic phenom, is only beginning on the road to stardom and a $5.7 million salary. Down the road in Charlotte, the Hornets' Larry Johnson is famous for signing what was at the time the Godzilla of sports contracts: a 12- year, $84 million deal.

There are so many ways that we can better utilize all of that money. True? Yes, this is true. The money being pitchforked into some sports stars' pock­ ets today is ridiculous, to put it mildly. But just one question before we ram the bull­ dozers into Madison Square Garden. What about America's other enter­ tainers? What about Arnold Schwarzenegger, Michael Jackson, Jodie Foster, and the Beastie Boys? They are in the same cat­ egory, or should be, as professional ath­ letes. Disagree or not, Charles Barkley and his mates in basketball, football, tennis, baseball, hockey, and other sports are en­ tertainers. Same as Bobby Brown, Steven Spielberg, or Kevin Costner. So why do people insist that athletes do not deserve the money that they earn, while ignoring the fact that actors, sing­ ers, producers, and directors rake in up to two and three times as much? It's no problem to hand over $16 for the new Liz Phair CD, or pay 20 leaves to see a Dr. Dre concert. But to hear that a guy in shorts gets so much money "for only bouncing a ball" is disturbing, somehow. Why? Nothing is different. Director Tim Burton's "Batman" took in more than $200 million at the theater, and another $150 million-plus via video sales and rentals. Goldie Hawn's in the midst of a seven-year, $30 million deal with Disney. Sounds like a sports contract, huh? Bruce Willis man­ aged to make in the neighborhood of $15 million for one of his movies.

Never in the history of college football has a Division I-AA player received as much attention as Alcorn State's Steve McNair. McNair earned the attention, though, breaking the NCAA record for all-time passing yards and mak­ ing everyone wonder why a I-AA player can't win the Heisman. I don't understand why, either (maybe it has to do with the com­ petition), but McNair won't win it. Ki-Jana Carter had a huge rushing season for Penn State, and the Nittany Lions are ranked sec­ ond in the nation, trailing Ne­ braska by only a few votes. Carter's total yards this season (1,539) don't come close to Salaam's, but he had 23 touch­ downs and averaged 7.8 yards per carry, compared with 6.9 for Sa­ laam. Also, Carter may have gotten as many yards as Salaam if Penn continued from pageW State hadn't blown out so many opponents. He has played in only four full games this year because, besides Illinois and Michigan, Penn State has destroyed everyone they have played. In Penn State's final game against Michigan State, Carter had a career-high 27 carries, 227 yards, and 5 touchdowns against a nor­ mally tough Spartan defense. If there wasn't an unwritten rule that defensive players can't win the Heisman, Miami's Warren Sapp would have a great chance at the award. He is the most domi­ nant defensive lineman in college football in several years, even bet­ ter than Ohio State's Dan Wilkinson was last year. Rashaan Salaam will win the Heisman, but Ki-Jana Carter is the better running back.

Carolina started strong, scoring 10 points and shutting out Appa­ lachian in the first quarter, and adding a field goal in the second quarter to go ahead 13-0. Black Death's only points of the game came on a 35-yard field goal by Scott Smith in the second quar­ ter, making the score 13-3. Carolina scored a touchdown soon after the field goal, however, then returned the opening third quarter kickoff for six more. The extra point gave the team a 25point lead, practically sealing the victory for Carolina. Two fourth quarter drives by Black Death came up empty. The first one ended in a blocked punt which Carolina recovered in the end zone, and the final drive in the game was stopped by the clock, as time ran out on the game and the season for Appalachian. Black Death still holds the record for trips to the champion­ ship and championship wins, with 9 wins in 17 tries.

Avery County (.Sheriff, Edward Gwynn said "a passerby" found Klein Joshua John Klein, 20, of Faculty Street, Boone, dead in his gray 1981 Audi 4000 off of U.S. 105, between Linville Ridge and Banner Elk. Gwynn said the car was found at 10:30 a.m. on Thursday. An Avery County medical examiner ruled the estimated time of death to be between 11 p.m. and 3 a.m. and that the death was a suicide. Police found no signs of foul play. According to Watauga County court records, Klein was convicted Tues­ day in Watauga District Court on one count of assaulting a police officer. He was sentenced to 90 days in jail, but had appealed the conviction. Klein, an employee of Macado's on King street, acted normal at his job Hiesday night, according to manager Tony Martin. He had been working for the res­ taurant for only one and a half weeks. Klein was a member of Lambda Chi Alpha fraternity. "He was very concerned with the image that he wasn't a quitter - that was the important thing," said Dr. Julia Pedigo, associate professor of music, about her former student Ellis Cornell (E.C.) Staten. "He didn't give up and that was nice to see." Staten died Monday, Nov. 28, at his home in flew Bern from a chronic case of pneumonia, according to Dr. Patricia Geiger, Appalachian State Uni­ versity physician. Staten withdrew from -Dr. school at the first of November. He was scheduled to complete his three credits toward graduation in December with only "He didn't give up and that was nice to see. Alumni Center's namesake passes away Tiffany Lohman Assistant News Editor Sam McKinney, 84, one of Ap­ palachian' State University's most sup­ portive alumni, died unexpectedly at the Presbyterian Home in High Point Friday, Dec. 2. McKinney, the namesake for the new alumni center, attended Appala­ chian on an athletic scholarship and graduated in 1933 with a Bachelor of Science in Math. McKinney also met his wife, Virginia, while attending Appala­ chian. The couple married in 1936. McKinney was inducted into the Appalachian Hall of Fame in 1978 in recognition of his accomplishments in the football program. He was employed with the Department of Motor Vehicles and re­ tired from his lifetime career as a N.C. State Trooper after approximately 40 years of service. The McKinneys have provided annual financial support to the univer­ sity since the beginning of the Appala­ chian Foundation in the late 1960s. Sam and Virginia McKinney re­ ceived the Alumni Association's Outstand­ ing Service Award in 1993 in recognition of their continuous service and support of Appalachian over the past 61 years. a semester left to student teach. His final senior recital would have been Friday, Dec. 2 but Pedigo said he had determined he did not have the stamina. "I think he had an idea [that he was dying] but he was in a big denial," Pedigo said. "He didn't want to talk about his illness at all. He was ready for the work at hand." Pedigo said she had noticed he was getting weaker as the semester pro­ gressed. Although he only needed three cred­ its, he had taken a full load of 12 hours. Near the end he had dropped // the extra load as well as the Gospel Choir. "He had me call Julia Pedigo his doctor because he wanted me to know he wasn't giving me a song and dance," Pedigo said. Staten came to the university two years ago after receiving a previous de­ gree in music from Benedict College, a historically black college in South Caro­ lina. He came to pursue a degree in mu­ sic education. Pedigo said he remembered Staten was "volatile" his first semester at Appalachian. She said he seemed to smile by the time the second semester rolled around. "The atmosphere here...is very supportive. One of the few where every­ one gets along. That's rare in the music world and I think E.C. felt that," Pedigo said. "It was very important to get his degree in education," Pedigo said. "Edu­ cation was very important to his family." Besides occasional visits to the infirmary, Staten remained at home dur­ ing most of his illness. According to Pedigo, he had been hospitalized the pre­ vious year for pneumonia as well. Virginia passed away Dec. 9, 1993. "They were the epitome of an Appalachian couple who truly loved Appalachian," said Barbara Burgin, di­ rector of alumni development. "They were a friend to all." The McKinneys were support­ ive of the Alumni Memorial Scholar­ ship, the Sam and Virginia McKinney Athletic Scholarship, the Former Ath­ letes Association, the Yosef Club, the Everett and Cornelia McConnell Schol­ arship Endowment, the Baseball Pro­ gram, the Jog-a-thon Fund and An Appalachian Summer Arts Festival.

Over 50 students, faculty and staff attended the forum designed to bet­ ter communications between the board and the campus community. As expected, the trustees heard several questions and comments concern­ ing the Appalachian Community and En­ vironmental Stewardship (ACES) pro­ posal. Committee blends diversity, faculty, students Manya Brachear News Editor Chancellor Francis T. Borkowski told the Board of Trustees Friday he would try to process university-wide feedback on recommendations from his committee on diversity before the next BOT meeting in March. The recommendations outline four goals to improve diversity on Appa­ lachian State University's campus, three of which have already been discussed in previous issues. The fourth and final goal discusses a goal-oriented strategy to re­ cruit and maintain a diverse campus: •Increase the presence of AfricanAmericans, women and other tradition­ ally underrepresented groups among the faculty, staff, administrators and in the stu­ dent body at both the graduate and un­ dergraduate levels. The committee's definition of di­ versity as stated in the report includes all underrepresented populations, primarily African-Americans. Currently, seven out of Appalachian's 545 faculty members are African-American; 24 out of 1,500 staff members. The report first addresses the small percentages in faculty and staff by outlining seven steps to diversify the em­ ployment pool. This step suggests that the Pro­ vost add a faculty position to any depart­ ment who hires a member of an underrepresented group in the depart­ ment, enabling departments to search even when no position is available. •Prepare for diversifying faculty and staff at Appalachian. In order to accomplish this step the committee suggests making informa­ tion and statistics about the applicant pool available to the DPC and Search Commit­ tees by duplicating Affirmative Action Request Forms filled out by each appli­ cant. Dr. Richard Howe, director of Equal Opportunities, said these types of forms have not been well received in the past. "Political correctness doesn't allow in­ terviewers to ask if [the applicant is] a This would charge the Depart­ mental Personnel Committees in charge of hiring to be proactive rather than reac­ tive and by also including traditionally underrepresented people on this commit­ tee. •Create new vacancies in depart­ ments and units. • Educate and make accountable Departmental Personnel Committees and Search Committees. see Diversity page 3 "My deepest desire, my deepest wish, is to work together to effectively implement the ACES proposal," said Brandi Duckworth, a junior elementary education and psychology major. Hunter Schofield, ASU student and town council member, also addressed the board concerning the ACES issue, ask­ ing trustees to review the issue carefully and consider student opinion before de­ ciding whether to support the proposal. Student Government senator Samantha Smith asked the trustees if they thought students have a strong voice in how student fees are spent. J.D.

Harry Williams, assistant direc­ tor of admissions in charge of minority recruitment at Appalachian, is chair of a search committee advertising for a University Admissions Representative. He hopes the new position will help in­ crease minority enrollment. According to the job descrip­ tion, the position will assist in the de velopment and implementation of re­ cruitment and marketing plans to in elude not only traditional freshmen, transfer students and adult students, but also students of diverse cultural and eth- see Position page 3 Appalachian is published with support from Appalachian's Center for Student Involvement and Leadership.

The short list, or the list of names submitted by the DPC must reflect at least one member of an underrepresented group. Other­ wise, a written explanation would be required or special arrange­ ments can be made to invite addi­ tional minority candidates onto the campus. The report follows by saying, "Recognize that members of traditionally underrepresented groups may have qualifications not measured according to traditional standards." • Develop university-wide strategies for improving applicant interviews and campus visits. In addition to allowing more than the usual three candidates onto campus, interviewing skills may also be subject to change ac­ cording to the report. Howe said normal job interviews are con­ ducted in person and include three or more interviewers. The report suggests encouraging conference calls to expand the variety of po­ tential candidates. •Clarify the levels of responsibilty for recruiting. The report suggests a goal-ori­ ented strategy for deans, depart­ ment chairs, and the Office of Af­ firmative Action and Equal Oppor­ tunity and Diversity to follow to diversify recruitment. Specific de­ partments in need of improvement will be identified. Deans will di­ rect chairs to focus on diversity is­ sues and documentation on diver­ sity efforts would be included in annual reports and reviews.

Williams said the number of minority students applying to Ap­ palachian is low. "We are down tremendously in the number of [minority] students sending in their S.A.T. scores and actually attending Appalachian," Williams said. The new position, which will begin Jan. 3, 1995, is a result of the committee to improve diver­ sity. Williams said the main rea­ son for the new position, however, is Admissions Director Joseph Watts. "He has been extremely sup­ portive of trying to increase the number of African-American stu­ dents and is 100 percent commit­ ted to improving diversity at ASU," Williams said. Williams said the need for an increased minority population at Appalachian is obvious when you look at other schools in North Carolina. "Out of 16 schools, we are num­ ber 16 in terms of diversity," said Williams. "Our job is to reflect the population of the state. There needs to be more of an effort to have the university reflect that." Williams noted that 23 percent of the state is African-American, compared to 4 percent at Appala­ chian. He also emphasized that the new position is not only to recruit African-Americans, but all minori­ ties.

The Boone Bicycle Fair, which will be held in the school's gymnasium between 7 and 9 pm, is sure to attract the pedal-pumping, often trail-riding variety of biker, and it will allow them to discuss and learn more about issues related to their two-wheeled sport. Chief among these issues is bicycle safety and, espe­ cially, a proposed helmet ordinance. This ordinance was brought before the Town Council in May and, if passed, will make helmets mandatory equipment for Boone's bi­ cyclists. A booth at the fair will allow public participation in the design of the ordinance, so the biking community can give input on shaping the law's characteristics. Dr. Bill Herring, an orthopedic surgeon, avid biker and chairman of the Town of Boone Bike Safety Committee, will be at the fair to give information about law. Since he was one of the drafters of the ordinance, it comes as no surprise that he's also one of its biggest supporters. "Approximately 1,000 to 1,300 bike riders are killed in this country every year," he said, "and about 62 percent of those deaths are due to head injuries. In places where helmets are the law — both in this country and others — head injuries have been reduced by about 82 percent. Besides the obvious safety benefits provided by hel­ mets, Herring also cites economic factors as support for the ordinance. "Last year there were over 600,000 emergency room visits from bike accidents at a cost of greater than $1 billion, and that's just in this country," he said. The publie ends up paying the bulk of these medical bills through insurance premiums and taxes, he said. While the fair's main focus will be on bike safety and the helmet ordinance, many other issues will be open for discus­ sion. Booths will be set up to pro­ vide information on the Alter­ native Transportation Project, riding techniques, trail eti­ quette, bike maintenance, light­ ing systems, helmet fitting and laws affecting bicyclists. The booth on North Carolina bike laws should be of special interest to bikers, for here they The Boone Bicycle Fair will feature booths and discussions on can learn how to ride legally several issues prevalent to the many bike riders atASU (file photo) and, therefore, ticket-free.

Hearing dog brings joy to Appalachian music major ASU News Bureau Jason Graves always wanted a dog. As a child, however, he didn't realize the gift a dog would someday bring. Graves, a senior at Appalachian State University, in November received North Carolina's first hearing dog to assist with his daily living. The year-old terrier mix named Beamer, who was rescued from a pound, alerts Graves to a ringing tele­ phone, doorbell or alarm clock and a sounding fire alarm — plus lends a listening ear to Graves' music, which the composition major at Appalachian's School of Music cannot hear. "He really likes the music. He goes to sleep when I play," Graves, 21, of Raleigh, said. "All my friends were expecting a very stoic, serious dog, but he's a dog.

We are certainly proud to be here, and we ex­ pected to come in and compete hard, and we did that."

The 1994 Appalachian football season drew to a close Saturday on the rainy turf of Boise State. The 17-14 loss ended one of the most successful seasons in recent history for the Mountaineers. Appalachian started the season with a loss to Wake Forest, but the 12-10 defeat taught the Apps they could play solid defense under pressure. From there, the Mountaineers went into their Southern Conference schedule. Appalachian was dominant in most games, losing only to Georgia Southern and Virginia Military. The loss to VMI stole the conference trophy away from the team, but not all was lost. The victory over top ranked Marshall and advancing to the second round of the Division 1-AA championships will be lasting memories of the 1994 sea­ son. Appalachian came to within three when with 8:57 to go in the game, Satterfield scored on a one-yard run. That play was the last score for ei­ ther squad. The game ended when Appa­ lachian could not convert on fourth down with 19 seconds left in the game. Hooks lead the Mountaineers in rushing picking up 70 yards on the ground . Hooks and Don Blue led the team in receiving both catching two passes for 19 yards. | The best and worst of times NCAA loss, Ma: membered for 5 The Apps seconsecutive win the mark for mo wins to 19, roll!; And equaled i squad's conferer season.

The Mountaineers were guided by the steady ball control of forward Merideth Thompson, who compiled six assists and four steals for the game. Starting guards Shannon Spencer with her four assists and four steals and Beth Kilby with six points and two blocks contributed to a swift first half start for Appalachian State, leading to a 32-19 half-time advan­ tage. Alisa Moore topped all UNCG scorers with 18 on fierce eightof-12 shooting in only 19 minutes of play. The Spartans (0-1) also re­ lied on forward Julie Moore's ten rebounds, eight points, three as­ sists and two steals.

"It has been a concern of many students, parents, and visitors." Students met on Nov. 22 in The Pub to voice their opinions and complaints about the current parking situation in a forum sponsored by the Student Government Association. Tugman said Appalachian can't allow every student to have his car on campus every day. The total number of people registered for parking at the end of fall registration reached 5,421. Of the 5,421 spaces, faculty took 1,410 and students took 4,011. "Our capacity is going now," Tugman said. "In the 1960s-70s," Tugman said, "a fee of $9 was collected." This money went toward paving the lots that had previously been gravel. In the 1970s-80s a transit system de­ veloped, the AppalCART. At the end of News & Sports 262-6233 Features & Editorials 262-3104 Dawn McGuire, Editor-in-Chief 262-6149 last year, 375,080 people had used this service. The AppalCART is a viable func­ tion to the pedestrian problem, Tugman said. Currendy, the parking fee is $70 a year. "Parking fees are set by the 'user pay the received $258,058 which goes to 108 per­ manent employees, 101 temporary em­ ployees and 41 employee benefits. "Tugman also said they have attempted to raise funds to go toward future park­ ing. "Our goal was to accumulate one a big problem. "You need to be consis­ tent if people are going to listen," she said. "It sounds like the goal is to get money." She continued by saying that she was go­ ing to keep on parking where she had been because one day she may receive a ticket, and the next day she may not. Another student questioned how our problem compares to other universities Not many universities allow and what they have found as solutions.

To British students it may not. 'Knob' is British slang for 'pe­ nis,' so the campaign takes on a whole new connotation. Sara Garrod and Louise Allen, both British exchange students, were shocked when they first saw a bumper sticker ad­ vertising the slogan 'Save Howard's Knob.' "We thought it was a joke," Garrod said. , They enjoyed it so much, they began sending The Appalachian headlines deal­ ing with ACES back to England.

To British students it may seem like a debilitating personal problem.

Howe commends diversity efforts Manya Brachear News Editor Editor's Note: This is the third of a fourpart series which details and examines the preliminary goals set forth by the Chancellor's Forum for Diversity. Chancellor Francis T. Borkowski will gather the reactions from Appalachian State University faculty, students, staff and administrators today on the preliminary results released by his committee on di­ versity. Through the campus' reactions on the preliminary results, Borkowski will process and determine which suggestions should or should not be implemented. Of the four goals listed, the third goal reads: Reorganize the office of Equal Op­ portunity to create an Office of Affirma­ tive Action, Equal Opportunity and Diver­ sity having Administrative Cabinet rank. The committee lists three steps to ac­ complish this goal. The first step is to es­ tablish an Office of Affirmative Action, Equal Opportunity and Diversity with rep­ resentation on the administrative cabinet. The mission of this office would include responsibility for planning, administering, coordinating and monitoring all diversity efforts on campus. Dr. Richard Howe, director of the of­ fice of equal opportunities, said the uni­ versity is currently an equal opportunity employer, meaning it does not discrimi­ nate and practices affirmative action. He said adding 'diversity1 to the name of the Office of Equal Opportunity would suffice. The report recommended the office be made up of a coalition with a managing director chosen by a vote of the directors and officers involved in the coalition. In addition, an advisory council for the office of equal opportunity, made up of See Diversity page 5 TH' Appalachian is published with support from Appalachian's Center for Student Involvement and Leadership.

Currently, Howe said, the office receives $9,000 in addition to the salary for him and his secretary. The office receives other money to make pro­ visions for the disabled and Howe said the office of business affairs occasionally helps out. "Each year I've asked for more resources," Howe said. But the de­ partment of physics wants more resources. The library wants more resources. It's a judgment call." Howe said he envisions tan­ gible results from the preliminary discussion of the committee's find­ ings. 'The chancellor has opened the dialogue across the campus to find out how important diversity is to faculty and students," he said. "He'll see the relevance to allocate resources."

The committee suggests these positions only be held by tenured faculty committed to diversity. The advo­ cates would be fully involved in every departmental hiring process and would report to college deans and participate in the dean's affir­ mative action council as well. Howe said he thinks this idea would be very effective. Currently each department personnel com­ mittee (DPC) elects one person to serve as the Equal Opportunity Associate (EOA). 'The real gut of the success of the Equal Opportunity program is the DPC," Howe said. Howe pointed out the phenom­ enon called the comfort factor, which is the tendency for the DPC to hire someone similar to them. For that reason, the EOA, Howe said, is essential. Howe said the person usually selected as the EOA is a female assistant professor. 'They're usu­ ally too soft-spoken to speak up for fear they would sacrifice any pro­ motions," he said. "We need a dis­ tinguished senior professor who's not afraid to speak out." Since July 1, Howe said 65 per­ cent of the new hires have been women. 'The best thing about the report is it grabbed people's attention," Howe said. "Especially if things aren't right in academia." "When we all agree something's wrong," Howe said. "Especially in an institutional organization, we must have diversity because of new ideas."

The first big that we had, Daniel showed e best sledding trail around; ll use it to this day. Until we Daniel, Robert and I could not d a fort that would last. But for all of his rough es, Daniel had a softer side. I ember the first time that I tried a curse word in his presence, looked at me and said, "Girls 't cuss. It ain't lady-like." I er cussed around him again. He would often walk up to our neighbor's to visit with her and bring her the mail. He took me down the road to Effey's so I could get a new kitten. That was the mountain in him. For the first two years I lived in Boone, I saw quite a bit of Daniel. He always needed a hair­ cut and some new jeans. Then he went to high school. I did not see him much after that, except when collapse in the corner crying. The rescue members were baffled. They managed to get him to Wa­ tauga County Hospital, and the hospital, in turn, sent him to Winston-Salem for a CAT Scan. Daniel had suffered from a ruptured an­ eurysm in his brain. After his release from the hospital, Daniel was not the same. The friend I knew was gone. In his place was a gaunt, aged man that I did not know. He no longer waved in recognition as we passed. That was my senior year in high school, so I re­ ally paid no atten­ tion. I had things other than Daniel on my mind. It was on October 2,1989 that the rest of Boone, and the western part of North Carolina, came to know Daniel too. My Daniel is Daniel Lee, the convicted killer of Jeni Gray. I do not in any way condone what he did. I was just as angry and scared as the rest of Boone when I found out it was him. I was fearful when returning home from college even though he was in jail. How could my friend that had taught me so much do such a horrible and heinous thing? But, you see, he was not my friend, only the shell of my friend. The Daniel that I loved died when that aneurysm ruptured. And now, on January 6,1995 his shell will join his soul. I mourn for Jeni and for all of the things that Daniel stole from her five years ago when he took her life. But I also mourn for Daniel and the memories I have of a young, rough-edged, mountain boy who only Wanted to live life, not take it. "How could my friend who had taught me so much do such a horrible and heinous thing?" J1 it snowed. He would come over and get my brother and me to go sledding with him or have a snow­ ball fight. Then he got his driver's license and a little green pick-up truck. After that I only saw him in passing on the road. Like the two roads in Frost's poem, we di­ verged. Then suddenly, several years later, tragedy struck. Late one afternoon a call came in for the ambulance service to respond at Daniel's house. My Dad, being a member of the volunteer rescue squad, responded, thinking Daniel's sick father had gotten worse. I found out later that day they had been called to respond to Daniel. He was running around his room screaming obscenities and swinging his fists at anyone brave enough to go near him, in­ cluding his father. Then he would Let Appalachian's Board of Trustees know what you think about campus issues. ld seen: «office:P| Appalachian's Board of Trustees will be on >< y« l campus today.

To Dr. Saunders, who couldn't stand the weather: If you were a "die­ hard" football fan as you claimed to be, you wouldn't worry about things like umbrellas. You might even be able to enjoy a game in a raincoat, like the rest of us. To Mr. Steven D. A. Mackay: "Damn" should not be a journalistic adjective used to degrade your debatable columns. Also, maybe someone should hire a few Mafia men to sneak into your room one night and show you exactly why there are alarms on doors. The alarms are put there for people's safety, not to disturb your precious slumber. Last year, a couple of guys got into a dorm and went around the girls' floors turning doorknobs to see it any were unlocked. Is this the kind of environment you are striving for? If it bothered you that much, why didn't you get up and find Rip Van Winkle, the R.A. To anyone who has used The Appalachian as their personal voice against society: K-Mart has diaries on sale for about six bucks, and the time to invest is now. Also, to The Appalachian: Do the innards of this paper really exemplify "fairness, accuracy, and public service," or should it be revised to "opinions, debatable claims, and sports put-downs?" Finally, for fear of sounding overly negative, I would like to commend the staff and columnists who work so hard to produce The Appalachian. Much of this publication is factual, helpful, and inquisitive material, and I hope to see this continued in the future. I also hope, however, that contributors will present their ideas to their friends or colleagues before gracing us with their ignorance. I realize that everyone has something to say (which is the reason behind this letter), and I hope I have offended no one with my less-than-urgent ponderings. Kevin S. Thornton ASU Box 10669 ACES: Some can't afford it To the editor: As a student who pays his own way to attend Appalachian (tuition, fees, living expenses, rent, etc.), I must register my disapproval of the ACES plan to increase student fees by $20 a year in order to buy land on Howard's Knob. This is clearly a town responsibility, and if town council members are for it, they should have the courage and strength of their convictions to approve needed money from town coffers without coming hat-in-hand to the students. While the project may have some merit, this fee increase is a not-sosubtle attempt by a bunch of lazy, mooching students to get Daddy to pay for their crusade, and that makes me sick. To those students in favor of a fee increase who pay their own way (as I do) and say they don't mind the extra $20,1 have but one response. Donate your money on your own. Do we need the university to collect it? As far as the rest of you go, why don't you just ask Daddy for the money? He's probably already thrown so much at you that another $20 won't matter. And if he does, you could always work for the $20. I know that might sound radical to some of you, but chances are that's how Daddy got his money. If you call the Employment Security Commission, they can easily set you up with a temporary job. Finally, for those of you too sorry to work and who can't con Daddy into going you the $20, why don't you pawn your nose rings if it's really all that important to you? In the meantime, get your grubby hands out of my pocket: There's nothing in there. In all seriousness, I have already made a small, voluntary donation to the Knob. Please have the courtesy not to hit me up again through forcing a fee increase on people who cannot afford it. William D. Charnock ASU Box 5594 Limbaugh not 'man of the people Coverage of eco-awareness groups biased To the editor: The clamor over Rush Limbaugh (see "Rush Feeling the Heat," Nov. 17) in recent months is interesting. However, maybe his fans should invest a grain of brain power in this man (and his motives) before idolizing him. A person with a lucid, independently-working mind can see Rush Limbaugh is not the "man of the people" he claims to be. He's more of a person who incites parts of the unsatisfied masses — and the word for someone who uses common prejudices to exercise their influence in the manner that T-* c? ople| ciisc l l f u i ; ii ^; f r " * fc>«CC* is n Limbaugh does is "demagogue." "Rush Feeling the Heat" calls Limbaugh a man with simple answers to complex problems. But Is he ? Should we really believe that there are simple solutions to the issues he spotlights? There's no denying that questioning our lawmakers and federal officials is a good thing. Examining those who hold power over us can keep the government's behavior legitimate. Rush Limbaugh, though, goes beyond such potentially beneficial inspection. He's like the man who yells "fire" in the proverbial crowded theater. It's amazing how, in the span of two years or so, "conservatives" and "Republicans" have managed to condemn "Democrats" for the country's ills (these terms are necessary for the purposes of identification, but consider just how ridiculous and limiting such labels are). Hmmm... isn't this the same type of finger-pointing that a lot of "liberals" aimed at Washington in the 1980s? It is an overused cliche, but perhaps if we quit trying so hard to throw blame elsewhere, and assessed issues impartially rather than belittling our ability to solve those problems, we'll stop talking at each other and start conversing like intelligent people. Darryl Stevens ASU Box 12369 To the Editor: I would like to express my extreme disappointment in The Appalachian's coverage of various eco-awareness groups on campus. I would first like to remind staff and readers that the STUDENT publication claims to advocate "fairness and accuracy." I beg to differ. The coverage is biased and encompasses the interests of only a select few in the student body. I'm not aware of the motives behind the negative attention toward PAL, SAVE, and now, ACES. It is not the responsibility of the media to impose supportive or opposing views of issues relating to students. It is an obligation of the press to provide factual information in an objective manner. I acknowledge the fact that editorials and columns are representative of the student voice. Some of the inserts are hilarious, others are outright lies, but almost all are one-sided. However, efforts to slam the groups' objectives stretch beyond the editorial page. Articles which should simply contain basic facts are narrow and mangled. I cannot comprehend why the paper attempts to intentionally confuse students. I become more disgusted with every publication of The Appalachian. The slanted journalism is an embarrassment to the institution and denies students their rights to honest information. My sympathy goes out to the misinformed students as well as the close-minded journalists. I sincerely hope that The Appalachian staff members will realize their shortcomings and seek to provide students with accurate, unbiased coverage. If not, then a weakness lies within the system, and the strength of the students will come through regardless of corrupt media. Sarah Jozwiak ASU Box 16562 �The Appalachian, Thnr.

The finale left a sad, incomplete feeling in the air, but that was probably a calculated move on Reznor's part. The show as a whole simply re­ flected the music itself. The mood was dictated by the music, some­ thing a good show should do. In the instance of the film, it only enhanced the mood; the music re­ ally created it. The best moments were during the songs in which Reznor dis­ played one of his greatest talents, his ability to express vaunerability and aggression at once. "Eraser" and "I Do Not Want This" are both good examples. The band scorched the chorus to "I Do Not Want This" with louder than life guitars and Reznor screaming "Don't you tell me how I feel/You don't know just how I feel." The crowd fed off of Reznor's pain the entire show. For every cry and scream Reznor spat at the au­ dience, the audience answered with thousands of cries and screams, a Rind of painful symt symbi­ otic existence. existence, While bands that chiefly belong belor the previous generations, like the Rolling Stones, Aerosmith, and the Eagles are great bands, they serve little to no catharsis for their lis­ teners. I think more than a few would agree they find their music today a little irrelevant. Trent Reznor preaches a kind of pain that the majority of this generation can not only understand but feel as their own. Our generation needs a "Closer" as opposed to a "Satisfaction" or anything else the Stones might of­ fer up these days. Call it "dark" theater, leather-clad metal-disco hybrid or even the church of pain and sex; Nine Inch Nails is the face of music today and the mirror of the youth. If any of those 30, 40 or 50something bands had been in the stands last Wednesday in WinstonSalem, they would have humbly kept their seat as NIN grinded and screamed their way into the future of rock n' roll. hey don't really vant to ah the real "Real World"!

The Lady Mountaineers downed Big South champion Towson State 15-9, 1512, 15-11 on Tuesday, November 22nd to earn an automatic bid to the big dance. Appalachian traveled to Ath­ ens, Georgia to face the nationally ranked Lady Bulldogs last night. Results of the contest were too late for press time. Georgia is ranked 17th in the nation in the Associated Press, led by Ail-American senior Priscilla Pacheco. Pacheco was named SEC player of the year and tournament MVP in leading the Bulldogs to a 25-8 overall record and a second place finish in league play. The University of Florida won top hon­ ors in the regular season. Georgia finished behind the Gators in their conference tournament as well, losing in the championship match. The Bulldogs also feature two first team all SEC performers in juniors Hadli Ansine and Nikki Nicholson. Wednesday's first round match-up marked the third meet­ ing between the two teams. The two schools have split their previ­ ous two matches. Appalachian reached the NCAA tournament last season for the first time in University history. The University of Idaho thoroughly pounded the Apps and sent them home with a 15-5, 15-8, 15-2 de­ feat. Coming into this season, one of the squads goals was to go one step further than last year. Defeat­ ing Georgia would accomplish that goal. "We know Georgia is a very, very strong team," Head Coach Dave Markland said. "But this year I don't think we'll be in awe of the tournament like we were last year." The Lady Mountaineers come in riding a six game winning streak, with victories in 23 of the last 25 matches. Appalachian was paced by Junior Sheri Leverette's 14 kills and 12 digs. Senior Hiedi McElhaney contributed 13 kills. Setter Kathy Granack led the Apps with 42 as­ sists. The winner of last night's match faces ACC power Duke this Saturday. Correction: In the November 22nd issue of the Appalachian, it was incorrectly reported that Hiedi McElhaney was named Southern Conference tournament MVP. McElhaney was tabbed SC player of the year. Junior SheriLeverette was named the tournament MVP. Harriers make history Special to The Appalachian When the Appalachian State men's cross country team flew back to North Carolina on Novem­ ber 22, they returned the 21st best NCAA division I team in the na­ tion. This is an accomplishment of gravity considering there are as many division I cross country teams as any other NCAA sport, nearly 300. Division I also repre­ sents the highest level of competi­ tion in the nation. The team's achievements have placed them well in ASU athletic history. Rarely has a team in ASU's century long history, men's or women's, finished with a ranking as high as 21st in the nation (prior to nationals, the team was ranked 20th). The cross country team earned that ranking at the seasonal finale, the grueling 10,000 meter national championship in Fayetteville, Arkansas on Monday, November 21st. The race was held at the Prairie Grove battlefield, a Civil War historic site. Reminis­ cent of the indecisive battle be­ tween the north and south 130 years ago, there were few who considered themselves victors, and many ravaged by the battle. How­ ever, the few teams that emerged unscathed also were crowned vic­ torious. Champion Iowa State and runner-up University of Colorado were able to survive the grueling test. Their preparation for the race put them ahead of the dynastic home team favorite and four time consecutive champion University of Arkansas, among other favor­ ites. Apparently, there was no home course advantage, as the Arkansas runners finished in 10th place. Disgruntled with their fin­ ish, many were heard talking of the horrendous course. According to one of the 5000 plus dedicated cross country spec­ tators, "This course is definitely replicated somewhere in hell." That is to say, it was quite diffi­ cult. In addition to a seeming myriad of short, steep hills, there were also long, painful hills- a crushing combination when paired with the three prior day's rain en­ veloping the course. The course and the momen­ tous pressures of a national cham­ pionship took its toll on most present. Many hopeful Ail-Ameri­ cans were either forced to drop out, or finish well behind AilAmerican status. Many teams were killed by the pressure; both Arkansas and Georgetown were ranked in the top five before the race, but finished 10th and 13th respectively. Individual title hope­ fuls Passemore Furusa and John Nganga were left as casualties on the side of the course half way through the race. Up front though, Iowa State and Colorado synchronized their Miesch best races of the season with the national meet. Iowa State, com­ prised overwhelmingly of im­ ported runners, impressively put all five of their scoring runners in the top 25. While Iowa State ran as a tight pack up front, second place Colorado started in the back and slowly, individually worked their way to the front. Colorado's freshman-frontman, Adam Goucher, finished an outstanding second to the quintessential stride of Kenyan ace Main Keino, who remained undefeated for the en­ tire season. The ASU team started the race in the middle of the 186 runner herd. Usually, if ASU starts in the middle, they slowly move up. However, inexperience at the na­ tional championship level became evident as the squad could not move up significantly. Senior Brian Miesch did move up though, passing Olympic 1500 meter final­ ist Graham Hood along the way. Miesch finished a laudable 66th overall. "I've never been in a race quite that vicious. There wasn't any dead-weight in the entire race," Miesch said of the race. Behind Miesch was sopho­ more Tommy Holland, 92nd, Se­ nior John Crumbliss, 138th, fresh­ man Seth Peoples, 145th, and Se­ nior Alan Whicker, 169th. Behind the varsity five were senior Jamie Griggs and freshman Judson Sarver. Unfortunately for ASU, their worst race as a team coin­ cided with the championship final. During the regular season, the team had run as a pack. On Mon­ day there was no unity, as the time between the first and fifth runner was the highest of the year. The experience and respect of going to nationals was invaluable to everyone involved. Making it to "The Show" was a first for the program and a learning experience to say the least. "Out of all the competitions I've been to as a coach, and an athlete, I've never been as awed by the level of com­ petition at this year's cross coun­ try nationals," Coach Al Fereshetian said. Fereshetian is a veteran of previous NCAA division I track nationals, and the Olympic trials, among other competitions. A top 15 finish at nationals is the river it seems ASU did not cross with flying colors. The team deftly coped with adversity all season, from ineligible returnees to sick and injured athletes. And they did it all quietly. The self-proclaimed "messiahs" of the non-revenue sports un­ derworld rose to national fame like the phoenix from the ashes. It has been difficult for the Mountaineers to build such a team and be com­ petitive against schools that focus on their non-revenue sports. How­ ever, the year has been a resound­ ing success for the harriers in ev­ ery respect. "The name of our school is now on the national map," said Fereshetian. Now other teams will look to ASU to lead the race. Look for every one of the cross country team members to spread ASU's gospel and at­ tempt to qualify individually for nationals during the ensuing track season. �Page 12 The Appalachian Tlx «-* Quinn Center Appalachian News Women's Weight Training Class: The Quinn will tr* class for women on Saturdays from 9 am until lo classes will be held on the following dates- Official University News And Announcements December 3 ^ If interested please enroll at the console desk at th^ WASU 90.5 University Bookstore Program Schedule WASU 90.5 FM Sunday: Cool Off Your Stress And Go Fcr BKG Pool Hours: Lap Swim FreeSwirr* Monday - Friday 12-lpm Monday Monday - Thursday ^"6Pm Saturday Saturday & Sunday 2 - 3 pm midnight - 3am 3am - 6am 6am - 9am 9am - noon noon - 3pm 3pm - 6pm 6pm - 8pm SANTA'S 20% OFF SALE 3rd Floor Wey Hall (704) 262-3170 Quinn Gym Incentive Progr^9* p.aVe a Ho-Ho-Whole lot of green during Santa's 20% off sale November 28 Earn a free "Quinn Gym" T-£?

Appalachian State University, Boone NC 28608 APPS0LUTE CHOKE Appalachian Staff Reports The 0-10 Virginia Military Institute stunned the Southern Conference Cham­ pionship-bound Mountaineers with a 26-23 overtime win Saturday afternoon at Kidd Brewer stadium. The Mountaineers' hopes of a conference championship ended in overtime with an intercepted pass that quarterback Scott Satterfield intended for running back Chip Hooks. Lost with the conference championship was the automatic bit to the Division I-AA playoffs and home field advantage for the first game. Instead the Mountaineers had to agonize through the night, until 2:30 Sunday afternoon when the at large bid were announced. Fortunately all was not lost in the game against VMI, the Mountain­ eers still qualified for the playoff. They are set to pay Saturday at New Hampshire. The players were not the only ones to leave the field disappointed after Satur­ days game. Many fans had bought tickets to the playoff game that would have been played in Boone. Some fans bought Appalachian Southern Conference Champion­ ship T-Shirts. The tickets had to be refunded, and the shirts are false. University residence halls and some food service locations were to be opened to allow on-campus students to return early from Thanksgiving break and watch the Appalachian State football team play at home in the first round of the Division-I-AA playoffs. Due to the loss Food Services and Residence Life have cancelled their plans to open early over Thanksgiving weekend. Residence halls and food services will not be open on Nov. 26-27. Though the team lost the game, the conference championship and the auto­ matic bid and the home game that came with it, all as not lost on "Black Saturday", the Mountaineers are still just four wins from claiming their first ever National Champi­ onship.

Sip" Vol.69 No. 22 262-6149 (photo by Shane Richards) h Additions and renovations to Ap­ palachian State University's Plemmons Stu­ dent Union are going to be completed the summer of 1995, David Robertson, direc­ tor of student programs said. The date of completion has been delayed due to a harsh winter last year and several other challenges, said Robertson. The most recent challenge the construction company is facing now is the steam utility lines that were unexpectedly found under Lucy Brock street, where a storm drain was going to be installed. "Anything like that has a domino effect," said Robertson. Robertson said the physical plant has been working on getting more of the underground lines onto paper, but that has been difficult. In the past, workers from Appala­ chian were local residents who just knew where everything was located under­ ground and did not have to put it down on paper, said Robertson. Renovations began on the second floor of the student union in May 1992. Construction on the new addition started July 1993 and was supposed to be finished this spring. Robertson said the contractors thought the building was going to be turned over this January. "They have never been right yet," Robertson said. Robertson said he believes the new addition will be completed in March and the current student union will be com­ pletely renovated in the summer of 1995. Once the new addition is com­ plete, renovations on the first floor will begin. Robertson said he thought reno­ vating the floors of the current student union at different times was the best way. "It's becoming more and more obvious that it is going to be worth the wait," Robertson said. Some of the new additions to the student union are an art gallery, a multicultural center, a ballroom, Cascades Cafe, a fitness center, a rooftop sun deck, an outdoor amphitheater, a computer lab, a study room and two ATM machines.

University Police Capt. Larry Fos­ ter said campus security will move its main office from the current location next to the tennis courts, to the warehouse at State Farm Parking Lot. The current loca­ tion will be demolished to make room for a new steam plant. Seventy-five percent of the de­ sign drawings have been submitted, As­ sociate Vice Chancellor for Physical Op­ erationsClydeRobbinssaid. T h e demolition is scheduled to begin in March. "The warehouse will serve as a temporary base of operations until our new office on River Street is built," Foster said. Robbins said the new building will also house campus personnel cur­ rently located in Founder's Hall. "This move will force consider­ able changes in our operations," Foster said. "I'm trying to remain optimistic andI will work with students to help with any problems this move might cause," he said. The biggest problem Foster antici­ pates is that students will be reluctant to report incidents when the office is located so far away from campus. "We will provide the same service as before" he said. Foster said there would be no change in the response time of officers, since officers are usually on campus and not in the office. "If a student needs transportation to the new location, they can call us and we will provide them with a ride," he said. According to Foster, University Police will have a satellite office on cam­ pus. A trailer set up in Stansbury Parking Lot will house the traffic supervisor who will manage the traffic students. Robbins said a shift commander will also be sta­ tioned on that site. The Appalachian is published with support from Appalachian's Center for Student Involvement and Leadership.

Her family encouraged her to visit a doctor which she did in September. She did not leave the hospital intensive care unit except for four days. Martin received her Bach­ elor of Arts degree from Auburn University and her master's from Florida State University. She joined Appalachian's home eco­ nomics department in 1991 where she taught introductory housing, residential design, contract design On/j 1 J 1• /• and a special design studio for handicapped, elderly and children. Her commitment to design and its impact on society was also re­ flected by the special workshops for students related to the Ameri­ can Disabilities Act. Her commitment to de­ sign was also reflected around campus. Garner said Martin in­ volved her classes in the comple­ tion of the interior of the new wing of Plemmons Student Union, Broyhill Inn, and the Graduate Studies office in Walker Hall. This semes­ ter she had begun to redesign the library suite for University Librar­ ian Mary Reichel. Garner said Martin always gave the students the opportunity to work with actual clients such as the student union architects and vendors. "She took advantage of the opportunities for her students to have real life design expereince," Garner said. "She fo­ cused on maximizing her students' learning." Hollenbeck said she also attended many professional con­ ferences since she loved to travel. "She was daring physi­ cally. She was daring mentally," Hollenbeck said. Hollenbeck re­ called the blizzard of'93 when the state highway patrol shut down the highways into Boone. Martin had returned from a conference and when the police told her she could not drive to Boone, she detoured through West Jefferson and came anyway. "She liked her indepen­ dence," she said. Martin is survived by two daughters Julia Leonard of Managa, Calif, and Stephanie Bontemps of White Plains, N.Y. and her three-year-old grandson An­ drew. "She was very devoted to her family, but not only to her fam­ ily but anyone who came around her," Hollenbeck said. "She did not have a mean streak in her. She was a presence that anyone could cher­ ish anytime." Garner said a departmental scholarship will probably be es...... tablished in Martin's name.

Obviously, the team lost to help, the Belk Library sure has taken some measly VMI this past Saturday,, and bad shots lately. with it, their chance to play a playoff game at Kidd Brewer Stadium. Statistics aside, there was no reason for ASU to lose this game. It doesn't matter how well VMI played, or how poorly ASU played. There is just no reason for an 0-10 team to come into town and keep the Moun­ taineers from winning the Southern Conference crown. It is hard to com­ prehend how a team that has played so well and worked so hard can let up in a game that should have been a gimme. But we're not going to sit here and bash the football team. Though the lapse this weekend was costly, the Mountaineers are still a good team. In the end, this past weekend's game may help them in the playoffs. They will definitely not underestimate any team they play. Many people will want to give up on this team after their perfor­ mance last weekend. It just seems to be another strong ASU sports team that faltered when it really counted. But students have backed this team with a passion like no other ASU team in recpnt history; tearing down the Off campus senator Todd Finch and Cone Hall senator Jon Parks are try­ ing to take some steps to change that. They have been working with librarians from Georgia Southern University and others to try to create strategies for change in our library. So The Appalachian asks that students still support this team even after one of the greatest Southern Conference upsets in history. It is doubtful that anyone is planning to make the 20-hour drive to New Hamp­ shire for the game Saturday, but check the sports tickers for the score. This is still our team.

Would it not be a whole lot more logical to place the shelter in the center of where we all park? It is not just South I com­ plain about. At some stops there is not even a shelter available, just a sign that says not to park there because the Appalcart is coming. Sometimes there is a shelter, but no one uses it because it is out of the way. An example would be the College of Business shelter. Every­ one waits for the bus on the front steps, where the bus stops, not at the shelter 40 feet away. Why not put a shelter in front of one stair­ way, and take those oversized pots somewhere else? Another example would be the one at Whitener parkinglot. Why do only the Red and Green routes pick up at the shelter, while the Gold picks up and unloads 40 feet away near a transformer? Making people wait in the rain and wind next to a piece of electrical equipment just doesn't make sense to me. In conclusion, I ask for a little more consideration of the rid­ ers of the Appalcart in the design and placement of pickup points. When we pay $70 to park on a piece of gravel, we expect a little empathy to our needs and comfort. A television and heated benches wouldn't hurt either. Planning commision member defends Schofield c, thienlij fid itr'saN Robertson ruffles reader s feathers To the Editor: This letter is in response to the article entitled "Ends never justify the means " (Nov. 10) by Robert Robertson published in The Appalachian. I realize the editorial page is a place for opinions, but I was never aware it was a place for lies and unjustified accusations. First of all, the Hillside Ordinance was not written by Hunter Schofield. It was written by a committee consisting of seven other people in addition to Schofield. Secondly, Schofield did not take this plan to the town council. When discussing the bond referendum, one part of Robertson's article reads as follows: "He (Schofield) stated that it is true, that in the short run Howard's Knob is not likely to see any financial benefit due to the state park bond passage, then he went on to say why Howard's Knob would benefit." Robertson conveniently left out the specifics of what Schofield said regarding the benefits to Howard's Knob. The petition for the referendum has been signed by over 2,000 students at this point in time, and the number of signatures is growing steadily. Robertson makes it sound like there is no concern about "the other 10,000 plus students." The advocates of the ACES proposal would not ask for these signatures and strive to educate the students on the issue if they did not care. Every student at Appalachian State University will have a voice in the ACES issue, and measures are being taken to be sure that the voices of all students are heard. Also, there was not mention of alternative transportation, which half of the proposed ACES fee would go toward. Many students are interested in more bike lanes, sidewalks, and less traffic in Boone, yet Robertson failed to mention this important element of the ACES proposal. Robertson disagrees with the methods being used by Schofield to achieve the goals of Howard's Knob. In my opinion, Schofield has an extremely well-organized plan for the ACES fee, and it is time to show him the respect he deserves. If the students cannot count on fair, accurate information in the newspaper, then maybe it would be a good idea to take the funding for The Appalachian and put it toward Howard's Knob and Alternative Transportation instead. Brandi Duckworth ASU Box 7756 PAL members question P.O.'s actions To the Editor, When it came to our attention all ASU clubs would receive a free mailing, PAL (People for Animal Liberation) decided on a relevant issue that would also pertain to the November 8 election. An effort was made to educate students on an issue crucially related to PAL, women's rights and the right to choose. PAL, as stated in its constitution, is a group concerned with the rights of all animals, human or non-human. The right to choose is also linked to the pressing population problem that effects the entire animal kingdom. These are only two of the obvious reasons that PAL chose to send out a flyer that simply stated the candidates positions on choice. While on the subject of choice, there is a possibility that campus organizations are now in jeopardy of losing the freedom to decide what issues are relevant to the group and those which are not. In PAL's case, the Post Office took on the matter by stopping distribution of the flyers after opening one and passing judgment on its content and relevance to PAL. The members of PAL and other campus organizations feel that the Post Office has no authority to determine which issues a club should support or oppose. PAL underwent all the proper procedures for obtaining approval for the mailing by first bringing a copy of the flyer to the CSIL (Center for Student Involvement and Leadership) office where verbal permission was granted. After printing over 6,000 copies, a second approval was granted in writing on a blue slip so that distribution could commence. It was after the distribution of a number of the flyers that a postal employee, whose job is to see that pre-approved mail is delivered, decided to halt distribution. We recognize the Post Office considers the mailing a privilege-, but does this entitle them to make decisions on the relevance of issues to certain groups? It seems logical that when there is a direct correlation between a group and an issue, as well as full-member support, that the relevance of issues to various campus organizations should be decided within the group rather than the Post Office. in the! 1 nd. ^insf -*r : m in straxidfel To the Editor: "The greatest homage we can pay to truth, is to use it'" wrote James Russell Lowell. After reading Robert Robertson's editorial "Ends never justify the means" (Nov. 10) in The Appalachian, I found it ironic Lowell's words and Robertson's views were printed in the same newspaper. Certainly Robertson is entitled to his criticisms of Hunter Schofield's methods, but his reports leave him open to a charge of a lack of integrity, or at least inaccuracy. "It's not the goals of the knob I disagree with, it's the methods being pursued to achieve them," writes Robertson. Robertson uses three issues to support his argument: "Hillside Protection Michelle Fanslau Penny Godbald Sarah Jozwiak PAL members ASU Box 9002 Step show should have received better coverage Overlay Districts," the 1993 bond referendum, and the recent Appalachian Community and Environmental Stewardship Fee (ACES). I would like to take exception to Robertson's claims and categorically offer my own experiences with these issues. Robertson states that Hillside Protection Overlay District regulations were drawn up solely by town council member Hunter Schofield in an attempt to limit development on Howard's Knob. However, slope and hillside regulations have been a concern of citizens in western North Carolina for a number of years. The interest in regulations to protect ridge tops and steep slopes has increased greatly since the development of Sugar Mountain in Avery County. Earlier this year, in an attempt to address the problems associated with hillside development in the Boone area, a number of community leaders volunteered to research the development of hillsides. Steep slope and ridge protection is addressed in the Town of Boone Comprehensive Plan which was developed last year with extensive citizen input. The truth is, hillside protection is a concern of many citizens, and not a result of Hunter Schofield attempting to save Howard's Knob. Robertson uses the 1993 bond referendum as his second example. "He attempted to connect any support the state park bond package received to the cause of Howard's Knob even though the bond referendum had nothing to do with the mountain top," writes Robertson. At the time Schofield made the statements connecting Howard's Knob to the state park bond referendum one of the most viable long-term solutions for "saving the knob" was to create a state park with the land. I believe Robertson uses the word "deception" in regard to Schofield's statements with hindsight that is not accurate or fair. In my opinion, I doubt Schofield was attempting to show false support and shove the first version of ACES through the Student Government Association (SGA). Schofield realizes SGA has intelligent senators, and from my encounters with Schofield I tend to believe he supports democratic principles, not the principles of "Germany 1939." This is evident in Schofield's willingness to revise ACES to its current form. Robertson closes his editorial by questioning why 1,607 students who signed the ACES petition should speak for the 10,000 plus students at Appalachian. The signatures delivered to Jane Mclntyre's office on Thursday, Nov. 3 will allow a student referendum for all 10,000 plus students to be heard. Chad Skinner Box 8756 Member, Boone Planning Commission To the Editor: On November 5, 1994, during the weekend of Homecoming, the Mu Omicron chapter ofZeta Phi Beta Sorority Inc., along with A<t>A, OB X and AKA, participated in an all Black Greek Step Show that was held in Farthing Auditorium. From the standpoint of representing all Black Greek organizations, I am annoyed, frustrated, and disappointed. From my understanding, coverage of the step show was assigned to someone. Yes, we looked for the story in the "next" edition of The Appalachian. NOT! I noticed that the events sponsored by SGA and other organizations were covered, but not the step show. After viewing that edition of The Appalachian, I thought that if "Miss Appalachian" can win a popularity contest and can be placed on the front of the school newspaper, then why can't we get some form of consideration, or maybe an applaud for our hard work and participation. A step show is not something that you make up over night, or even weeks. It takes a lot of time, energy and effort. I guess it wouldn't be looked upon as unprofessional if reporters, from The Appalachian, had not infringed on our practice time, promising us that there would be a story representative ofZOB in the next edition of The Appalachian. NOT! It doesn't stop here. The sorority that I represent just so happened to win the female competition between the sororities. The night of the show we were asked to come up with a time on Wednesday that we all could meet for a group picture to be put in to The Appalachian on Thursday. The reporters who took our picture took the very last picture on the roll. With no experience in photography, even I would have known better. Here again, we have no choice but to question your professionalism. Now, don't get me wrong, we're not all disgruntled. We do appreciate you mentioning our name with the picture of Phi Beta Sigma Fraternity, Inc. We love our brothers, but we are two separate organizations. Thanks. For future reference, let's all be considerate and informed with what is going on, whether the events are being sponsored by SGA, BSA, IFC, PHC or NPHC. Thank you for your time, or lack thereof.

Make a Christmas wish come true for a needy baby, child or adult, adopt an Angel! Once again this year, the Apps Executive Cabinet is sponsoring the Apps Angel Tree. They have hopes of fulfilling many dreams of needy children and the elderly. Jackie Hunt, vice president of the Apps Executive Cabinet, is the Angel Tree coordinator. "We hope by sponsoring the An­ gel Tree to get a closer network with the community, as well as give back what they have given to us," Hunt said. This year the number of Angels has been boosted since last year. We have 195 Angels to sponsor with a good mixer of children and adults. These Angels are very ap­ preciative of whatever they re­ ceive. "You don't have to spend a lot of money, just give what you can af­ ford, " said Hunt. So far 130 people have responed to the Angels, and Apps Executive Cabinet expects all 195 Angels to get adopted. They encorage people to try to adopt the elderly adults because they are in need of many things around the holi­ days. "I'd like to thank everyone who has adopted an Angel and encour­ age those who haven't to come out and support us," Hunt said. The deadline for adopting an Angel is Tuesday, Nov. 29. The gifts are due by 5 p.m. that evening. One person could make all the difference for someone in need, so share the true spirit of Christmas by adopting an Angel! BIB FREE CAP © teg?

VMI and Appalachian exchanged field goals in the fourth quarter to make the score 16-16. The Keydets struck again with 4:02 remaining in the game as Thomas Haskins bolted in from nine yards to give VMI a 23-16 lead. Appalachian came back and scored in dramatic fashion. Satterfield ran in from three yards out with :33 left to pull within one point. Instead of going for two, Jerry Moore sent the sure-footed Sutton to boot the extra point and send the game to over­ time. In the extra period, VMI wasted no time to send in Goff to hit his fourth field goal of the game. The 44-yard attempt ended the game and a lot of Appalachian dreams of a conference championship. The loss also took the play-offs away from Boone and to the state of New Hampshire.

Mountaineers playoff bound Stephen Hensley Reporter Sure, it was dissappointing to lose to the worst team in the Southern Conference. Losing home field in the play-offs was just as bad. However, the 1994 season is not over for the Mountaineers. We still are in the Division 1-AA tournament. The Mountaineers play the University of New Hamp­ shire Wildcats Saturday. The Wildcats are the Yankee Conference champions and have a 10-1record and are 5-0 at home. The Wildcats were ranked 17th in the nation last week, seven spots behind the Mountaineers. New Hampshire comes from a tough conference, having to face three ranked opponents in the three sacks. Mike Foley has a team regular season. The Wildcats beat high 12 sacks. Wes Mills has three fourth-ranked Boston University interceptions to lead the Wildcats. Appalachian has a strong de­ Terriers and the fifth-ranked James Madison Dukes during conference fensive unit as well. After giving play.

James Maddison Troy State Boise State North Texas New Hampshire Appalachian State l e dl i Black Death looks for 10th championship David Kittrell Sports Editor The Western Carolina club foot­ ball team was no match for the mighty Black Death as they fell to ASU 29-7 in the first round of the Magus Cup championship for the Carolina's club league. Western Carolina was held scoreless in the first half while Black Death amassed 17 points. The first seven came midway through the first quarter from a one-yard run by Scott Chambers and an extra point from Scott Smith. Tim Witherell then connected with Carlos Oates early in the sec­ ond quarter on a five yard touch­ down pass and an extra point from Smith made the score 14-0. Smith scored once more in the first half with an incredible 49yard field goal to make the score 17-0 at the break. Black Death came out blazing in the second half. Ali Davis inter­ cepted and returned a wayward WCU pass for a touchdown. When a two point conversion failed, the score stood 23-0 in favor of the Mountaineers. Aaron Kuykendall scored an­ other touchdown for Black Death in the fourth quarter on a 13 yard run to make the score 29-0. With a small amount of pride, WCU forced their way down the field with 8:38 on the game clock to get their only touchdown of the game. Their extra point was good to make the final score 29-7. This year is the 18th year of the Magnus Cup championship for the Carolina's club league. ASU has competed in 17 of those champi­ onships and won nine times. Black Death will have a chance to win their tenth championship Dec. 4 in Chapel Hill when they take on UNC-Chapel Hill at 1p.m. holding serve and threatening to take home the title, McEhlhaney stepped up. The senior from Hialeah, Fla. contributed six kills in the closing minutes, three of which brought the serve back to the Mountain­ eers, and three which gave the Apps points. McEhlhaney's last kill gave the Lady Spikers the victory, at 18-6. Inspired by chants of "ASU! ASU! ASU!" by a crowd of parents and Appalachian supporters, the Lady Apps pulled away from the Paladins in the fifth and deciding game. "We knew we had it after we won game four," Leverette said. The Apps outscored Furman 9-3, surging ahead from a 6-6 tie, to capture their second straight Southern Conference champion­ ship on a kill from Leverette. McElhaney led the Mountain­ eers with 26 kills in the victory, to­ taling 57 for the tournament. Leverette contributed 21 kills in the final, and 41over the threeday competition. For her all around excellent play, the junior from Lakeland, Fla. was named Tournament MVP Leverette, who was left off both the first and second all con­ ference squads, was honored with the award. "It's a big compliment," Leverette said. "I think I put my best effort out in all 3 games." "I'm not a bit surprised by Sherri's play," Markland said. "Sherri is one of the most under­ rated players in the conference." Joining Leverette on the all tournament team were: junior set­ ter Kathy Granack (145 assists in three matches), and junior hitter Miriam Sealey (20 kills in the fi­ nal). Kim Polash, Karen McCarty, and Tammy Kerr all from Furman, were honored as well. In winning, the Apps face Big South tournament champion, Towson State, tonight in Balti­ more. The winner receives an au­ tomatic bid to the NCAA tourna­ ment. Towson State comes into the match sporting a 19-14 record. Earlier in the season, Towson State stood at10-12, before reeling off 9 victories in their last 11 games. Towson downed UNC-Greensboro, a team which beat the Apps Sept. 7 in three games to win the title of their league tournament. Despite this, the Apps remain op­ timistic. "If we play all together, and we play hard, we shouldn't get beat for a while," Leverette said. Volleyball continued from page 8 RD DUE WEDNESDAY, NOVEMBER 23 -3^s S i,- iy <=» of'1 ^<3*1 AT A THEATRE NEAR YOU. Leverette echoed her coach's comments. "When we were losing it was because we weren't playing to­ gether," the junior hitter said. The Apps began slowly in game two, falling behind 4-0 and having to serve 14 times before an Amy Kolomechuk kill gave the Apps their first point. The Apps nearly fell again to the Paladins, as the second seeded squad surged out to a 14-9 advan­ tage. The Apps, displaying their de­ termination, which was the foun­ dation behind their 29 wins this season, held strong behind the consistent serving of Kolomechuk and ran off seven straight points for the win. The momentum swung back to the Lady Paladins in game three as they outscored the Apps 8-3 to close out a 15-10 victory. With their backs to the wall, the Apps found themselves down 6-2 in the early stages of game four. The Apps ran off three straight points to come with one point at 6-5. Neither team would again lead by more than two points. With Furman leading 13-12, �The Appalachian Tuesday Quinn Center Official University News And Announcements Thanksgiving Break Hours.

Fairness, Accuracy and Public Service since 1936 17 November 1994 Appalachian State University, Boone NC 28608 Ken Larking Reporter Library Hours N.C. State Legislature Carl Bosin, representative of the North Carolina State Legislature(NCSL), spoke to SGA about the organization. Bosin encouraged members of senate to attend the NCSL in­ terim meeting to be held this weekend in I.G. Greer beginning at 9 a.m. on Saturday and 10 a.m. on Sunday. According to Jason Baldwin, member of NCSL, the organiza­ tion intensely debates legislation brought up by students. Off-campus Senator Todd Finch Student Government Asso­ ciation Chief-of-Staff Michael Marlatt introduced a bill Tues­ day to propose voting dates and exact wording of a referendum on the Appalachian Community and Environmental Steward­ ship (ACES) fee. Under the proposal the ref­ erendum will take place in Welborn Cafeteria on Wednes­ day Feb. 1 and Thursday Feb. 2, 1995. Students will be given three choices according to Marlatt's proposal: announced he is working on a resolution of support for expand­ ing the hours of the library that would be voted on by the student senate in the future. According to Finch, the resolu­ tion would suggest that Belk Li­ brary stay open until 2 or 3 a.m. on Sunday through Thursday. "As of now, Belk Library is only open until midnight on Sunday through Thursday, [this] conflicts with those students who work late during these nights," Finch said. Also SGA Compiled by Ken Larking 771$ •To support the ACES fee. •To not support the ACES fee •To support the purchase of Howard's Knob and the fund­ ing of alternative transpor­ tation with the belief that it is the community's responsibility. The ACES fee is a proposal developed by a group of student senators. It creates a fee of ten dollars per semester to be di­ rected toward either the pur­ chase of Howard's Knob and al­ ternative transportation or Belk Library improvements.

Dr. Pat Morgan, Appalachian politi­ cal science professor; originally de­ feated Lee Hyatt for one of the top two seats on the board of education by only five votes. Bobby Byrd of the Watauga Elections Board, said after the recount, it was concluded that he had only won by four, a narrow margin of 4738 to 4734. Morgan, who has served on the board for the past seven years, said he was not surprised that Hyatt asked for a recount. "I would have done the same. Even though we've gotten bet­ ter with the machines, there is still the possibility of some wrinkled ballot lost somewhere. These things do happen." Morgan will serve a four year term. Hyatt will serve a term of two years. [h Security to answer student parking concerns Allison Pennell Reporter Students will have the opportunity to voice their opinions about Appalachian safety and parking Tues­ day at 8 p.m. in The Pub.The event, sponsored by the Student Government Association, asked Direc­ tor of University Police Roy Tugman and Capt. Larry Foster to be in attendance to answer any questions, and to listen to any problems that may arise about safety and parking. Ihgman said that Appalachian has held a forum facing similar problems in the past, but it has been a while. "I hope they (the students) will have a better understanding of our policies and have a better feel News Editor 262-6233 Features & Editorials 262-3104 Dawn McGuire, Editor-in-Chief 262-6149 See Parking Page 3 According to many, parking atASU is aggravating. Report suggests incentives for diversity Manya Brachear News & Sports for it," Tugman said. "We expect a big turnout," SGA Student Affairs Chair April Farwell said. "Safety has got to be more of a priority than park­ ing," Tugman said. Although he said he feels safety is more important, he said that University Police have received more complaints about parking. Tugman said in looking at a potential loss of spaces because of various reasons for the '94-'95 year, they were able to make use of the existing spaces. He said that although Appalachian lost the Baptist Church parking lot and the old Winn Dixie lot, the Williams parking lot was picked up. "We are in as good shape this year as last year," Tugman said. "To this point we have been able to accomodate all registered vehicles." Editor's Note: This is the second of a fourpart series which details and examines the preliminary goals set forth by the Chancellor's Committee on Diversity. Chancellor Francis T. Borkowski still awaits response from faculty and staff on the preliminary goals of the Chancellor's Committee on Diversity before he imple­ ments any of the suggestions. The second goal, which reads: "Provide incentives for making necessary changes in institutional policies and programs to create a truly diverse campus community" outlines three steps. The first step is to "Reassess all fund­ ing priorities with diversity as a principal focus," such as funds to enable depart­ ments to hire or retain a faculty member diverse to Appalachian. Dr. Rebecca Kaenzig, assistant profes­ sor of accounting and a diversity commit­ tee member, said this did not mean supple­ mental salary for minority faculty, but a reduced course load without a reduction in pay for instructors to complete their dissertations. Dr. Harvey Durham, vice chancellor of academic affairs, said a three-hour load reduction would be feasible. However, the state of North Carolina prohibits any paid educational leaves. The committee has also recommended methods to increase recruitment of mi­ norities. Teri Van Dyke, Durham's admin­ istrative assistant, said she sends descrip­ tions of all open employment spaces to Dr. Jesse Taylor, assistant to the vice chan­ cellor of academic affairs for minority con­ cerns. Taylor said he uses a currently outdated database of minority institutions to con­ tact candidates for open positions. Van Dyke said the office of academic af­ fairs uses a more up-to-date computergenerated list of about 240 minority in­ stitutions including women's colleges as well as predominantly African-American See Diversity Page 4 The Appalachian is published with support from Appalachian's Center for Student Involvement and Leadership.

Lee Dembey, president of the Student Ambassadors, defended the dedication at the hearing. Two townspeople suggested the alter­ natives of Mr. Ralph Winkler and/ or Daniel Boone Highway. The citizens were not opposed to the dedication to Apaplachian's founder, but simply did not want the choices to be too narrow. "This was not meant to be con­ troversial, Strom said. The hearing and town council meeting are just two of the three steps required by the N.C. Depart­ ment of Transportation for apporval of the dedication. The ambassadors have already gained support from the local Chamber of Commerce. Watauga County Commissioner Jack Wellborn said the hearing was necessary because the plan affects the whole county. An estimated 6,000 spaces are available now and about 6,000 vehicles are registered. Tugman said about 55 percent of ASU stu­ dents live off-campus, and they are most likely to register their ve­ hicles for on-campus parking. Tugman also said most tickets are given to people who park over time in parking zones. Parking in restricted areas is the next most common offense. Referendum Continued from Page 1 Nov. 3 to hold a referendum on the new ACES proposal. Jonas Monast, a member of ASC, believes the supporters of the bill on Senate will argue with the exact wording of the referendum. "The third option on the pro­ posed referendum is the same as the legislation proposed by J.D. Adams that the SGA solidly de­ feated," Monast said, "This brings into question what the true intentions of the leader­ ship in SGA really are."

The second step recommended the university seek additional funds to diversify faculty, staff and administration. In addition to ex­ ternal grants, the committee sug­ gested asking all units that process grants such as the graduate school and the Hubbard Center to insist grant applications to address di­ versity whenever appropriate. Susan Perry of the Hubbard Center said although the center does not process grants, it deter­ mines the funds available for fac­ ulty and institutional development projects. She said diversity has already found its way into projects. Just this week, Perry said she has reviewed a project from the Hu­ man Development and Psychologi­ cal Counseling department on counseling AIDS patients and from the English department on devel­ oping an anthology of AfricanAmerican poetry.

However, despite the hardship that we have met along the way, we have always endured, recognizing that somewhere in the d i s t a n c e m u s t l i e the l i g h t a n d t h e e n d o f t h e t u n n e l . I write you out of respect and responsibility, but beyond this attempt I can go no farther. Whether it be divine intervention or the natural course of things, I believe that you & I have been given a second chance to come together on this issue.

W e h a v e c r e a t e d a plan t h a t p e o p l e n o w b e l i e v e i n and r i g h t f u l l y so, for it is the deliverer from much that has pained us.

A friend of mine who I love very much just lost a friend of many years to a plane crash in Indiana. I wrote this poem for her and I would like to share it with you. " Like rivers flow we all must go so that others can come to find, that although we are not forever in this world our good deeds remain behind." I wish you the best and hope to hear from you soon. On Nov. 10, The Appalachian received a letter written by Hunter Schofield to Chancellor Francis T. Borkowski. The letter was sent anonymously by someone claiming to be a student who was working with Schofield on the ACES proposal. The Appalachian has been unable to verify this claim. The Appalachian did however confirm the validity of the enclosed letter with both Schofield and Borkowski. Regardless of its origins, the letter, from one community leader to another, addresses an issue that has been a prevalent topic of discussion in the campus community. Schofield explains intent of letter I recognize the importance of clarifying my intentions in a personal letter I recently wrote to Chancellor Borkowski. However, the most frustrating thing is that once again The Appalachian has allowed the real issues to be overshadowed by personal scrutiny of the individuals working on them. In explanation of the letter I delivered to Chancellor Borkowski on Nov. 4, 1994, which mysteriously showed up under the door of the office of The Appalachian a few days later, I'd like to discuss a few excerpts that could easily be misunderstood or misinterpreted without clarification. I stated in the letter that "I have reflected at great lengths at the events of the past to better understand the events of the future. I realize that a great responsibility lies upon my shoulders and I must do my best to lead the movement." The movement I refer to is our attempt to promote ACES on campus despite great resistance from the administration. Although I was chosen as liaison to the administration by the eight-person ACES coordinating council, I should have selected my words more carefully and I apologize for my mistake. I stated, "And so I write you for this very reason, for on this issue our time has arrived and it pains me that we are not together on this issue. It pains me not just because two leaders with similar temperaments can not come together in what is truly our common cause, but because of the hardship that is ahead for my people and for yours if we do not come together. I would prefer to resolve our differences in the beginning instead of the end but ultimately they will be resolved. I will go to great lengths to avoid conflict, but I will go much farther to resolve it for the cause for which I believe." Through work and discussion on many issues, Dr. Borkowski and I have recognized many perspectives we hold in common. In this statement general support for ACES, as communicated to alumni, faculty and student leaders in a meeting asking for his cooperation, Borkowski later yielded to his cabinet of vice-chancellors who were adamantly opposed to ACES. In reference to "my people and your people," I was simply trying to communicate the solidarity on behalf of all students who support ACES and in no way meant to indicate that anyone works for or serves me. In fact, I believe my actions in the past have shown that I have committed myself to serving and working on the behalf of all students. When I mention "your people," I am simply referring to Chancellor Borkowski and his cabinet, who to this point still refuse to recognize ACES or the large support it has on campus. However, this is how I should have expressed these points and I am sorry for the misunderstanding. Finally, I stated near the end of the letter that "Now is the time for us to come together and resolve our differences for the betterment of the family (ASU) for which we are both a part of. I implore you not to force us to take it apart Take it apart to get to the source of our sickness so that we can feelgood again. But when you are as sick as we are, there is no distance you will not travel to seek relief. ACES is this for us and by denying us this relief you will make us more desperate to relieve it." O.K., pretty flaky, I know. It was very late when I wrote the Chancellor and as I stated in my letter, "not sleeping very well for many days has made me tired." I do recognize that I was too exhausted to write sensibly. However, be honest, if you had worked on any issue flike a term paper) for a year and a half you'd be sick, too. Especially if you had seen, as I was unfortunate enough to, the young woman that was nearly killed by a car on River St. or the truck on Hardin St. that had to be lifted from the front in order to reveal a young man and the bike that lay below. When I stated, "I implore you not to force us to take it apart," I simply meant that the ASU family consists of the students, faculty, alumni and the administration. If the administration refused to support a democratic student mandate on ACES, and ignore the students' right to decide like responsible adults how their resources are allocated, I could see the possibility for students to strongly disagree with the administration's position. This in effect would split (take apart) the ASU family until the disagreements could be resolved. In hindsight, I shouldn't have been writing the letter nearing a state of delirium. However, I had recently received the legal memorandum resolving the last legal concerns for ACES and I was determined to deliver it (with a letter) to Chancellor Borkowski as soon as possible. My objective with the letter was to reach out to the administration and sincereiy communicate our long-term commitment to the goals of Howard's Knob, Alternative Transportation and the desire to cooperate on ACES. Unfortunately and without my permission, the only person my letter reached was the editor of The Appalachian. I am sorry for my naivete and my poor choice of timing and i oids I !r:ve tha vou will hoi' me and not ACES, nor the hard working people who have driven this issue, at fault. I have learned my lesson.

Oregon Taylor at the Links Akram Barghothi Assistant Sports Editor Senior Drew Taylor has lived in Boone since his birth May 101973. He has played golf since he was eight years old. "Golf is more than a game to me- it's a way of life. I have no idea what I would do if I couldn't play," Taylor said. Taylor started his competitive golf ca­ reer when he entered Watauga High School in Boone. He stepped in and played in the two seed for the team, be­ hind his older brother David. When his brother graduated, he moved up to the number one spot and never looked back, qualifying for the 4-A state championship in his last three years. After he graduated from high school, he went to the University of North Caro­ lina. Taylor took a year off from Boone and competitive golf. After that year he transferred to Appalachian and joined the ASU golf team, making an immediate im­ pact. In addition to his exploits on the Ap­ palachian team, Taylor has individual ac­ complishments to his credit. He is the twotime Boone Golf Course Club Champion, winning the title in 1989 and '90. Taylor possesses a strong overall game, but his biggest asset is his prodi­ gious length. His drives are the longest on the team. His only major weakness is he is at times inconsistent. In addition to golf, Taylor also con­ centrates on his marketing major. After graduating in May, Taylor looks to get his master's degree. Jaylor and his teammates will be in action again when the important spring golf season starts. 12. Troy State 13. Pennsylvania 14. Nothern Iowa 15. North Texas 16. Alcorn State 17. New Hampshire 18.

UNC scored a field goal early in the first quarter to give them a 3-0 lead. The Mountaineers also made their presence known early as Black Death quarterback Tim Witherell connected a 60-yard pass with Carlos Oates. The extra point was missed to make the score 6-3.

Apke also singled out Junior Brian Hege, who scored 18 points off 7-13 shooting. "Hege had a good shooting game. He had an off year last year, a sophomore jinx type thing. It was good for his confidence to play well," Apke said. The Mountaineers jumped to an early lead with a 10-2 run to start the game. The Apps never trailed from that point. The Apps largest lead of the game was 17 points as the Apps extended the lead to 32-15 at the 7:11 mark of the first half. "We are a lot better than a lot of people think," said Apke. In addition to winning the opener, the App basketball pro­ gram has also been impressive hit­ ting the recruiting trail. Signing Wilkesboro native Ian Adams, Ca­ nadian Blair Adderley last week, and Paul Jones, a 6'6" forward form Mineral Va., will help them out tremendously.

Everything looked as if the Mountaineers had the game in the bag at the half with the score standing 15-3. The third quarter was a stale­ mate as neither team was able to capitalize on their offensive drives. The Tarheels came out swing­ ing in the fourth quarter, however, and capitalized on several Black Death errors. Black Death was deep in their own territory as their quarterback dropped back into the end zone to make an incomplete pass. At the same time, an ASU lineman was holding in the end zone which made the incomplete pass play a safety. The Tarheels got the ball back and two points to make the score 15-5. Again, ASU was deep in their own territory when their drive A.S.II.

Their punt was blocked and UNC gained possession of the ball. The Tarheels went on a furi­ ous drive that ended with a 12yard UNC touchdown run to make the score 15-12. Black Death's troubles were far from over as they fumbled and UNC recovered. UNC capitalized once again to make the score 19-15. Around the four minute mark in the fourth quarter ASU drove 80 yards as the seconds were ticking down. On a fourth and three play from the UNC 12 with only 45 sec­ onds left ,UNC was able to stop the late charge and seal the victory. Black Death is now 5-5 for the season and 3-2 and in third place in their club league. The first round of the club league playoffs begins Sunday, Nov. 20 at noon in Kidd Brewer Stadium as Black Death takes on Western Carolina. Editorial writers and cartoonists needed.

IES hits the streets Kristin Laciano Reporter "There have been private grumblings, but we're trying to be positive," said Dr. Ruth Ann Strickland concerning the re­ cent implementation of peer review. According to a directive handed down by the University of North Carolina administration last May, professors in the system will soon be required to have fellow professors evaluate their teaching. Strickland, an associate professor of political science, said peer review is a waste of time. "To me there is no point. It [peer review] is supposed to improve teaching, but there is no research that says it does. All it will do is create mounds of paperwork for us," she said. Dr. Roxann Knutson, assistant professor of communica­ tion, does not agree. "I think any time faculty can share ideas and interests with each other, teaching will improve," said Knutson. The idea behind peer review was triggered by an inci­ dent at The University of North Carolina at Chapel Hill in 1992 when a teacher was denied tenure because of his publication record. The board of trustees later overturned the decision and granted tenure, but still saw a problem with so much stress placed on research, hence peer review. Under the current conditions set forth by the UNC ad­ ministration, all graduate students and non-tenured professors are required to have fellow teachers sit in on their classes and evaluate their teaching. William Little, vice-president of academic affairs for the UNC system, said, "The Board of Governors is always looking into aspects of the University system that needs improvement." Strickland fears the plan may weaken the bond between faculty. "It will force people to meddle in other people's depart­ ments. And what about a professor who has to review a class on subject material they are not familiar with? How can they evalu­ ate the teaching?" Dr. Terry Cole, chairman of the Communication Depart­ ment, has been involved with peer review before and has no objections. "I don't have any basic fear," said Cole.

ASG created a plan for individual student governments to oppose parts of the tuidon surcharge legislation approved by the B.O.G. The legislation will establish a 25 percent tuition surcharge for students who take more than 140 hours in a four-year program. According to Ray Paschal, SGA director of State Affairs, ASG opposes re­ quiring students to have an average of 15 credit hours per semester. According to Paschal, ASG also discussed the escort and shuttle services at different schools. ASG wants to imple­ ment these services at universities that do not have them, Paschal said. ASG also researched establishing an academic integrity standard for the whole system, Paschal said. During informal discussion at the B.O.G. meeting, the issue of Republi­ cans taking control of the North Caro­ lina House of Representatives and the impact that would have on the B.O.G. was brought up and discussed. According to Chancellor Francis T. Borkowski, 14 B.O.G. positions will be held by Republicans when the next term begins. According to Paschal, many ASG delegates agreed it would result in less money for higher education. The Appalachian Student Hition set up a booth Monday to students know more about the JES proposal. Mike Gaddy, an ASC Iresentative, said the booth was set to "clear up any misconceptions put ACES."

The 20page report outlines four goals intended to create a more diverse campus. The four goals include: • Create and encourage a climate of understanding and acceptance of dif­ ference. • Reorganize the Office of Equal Opportunity to create an Office of Affirmative Action, Equal Opportunity and Diversity with Administrative Cabinet rank. • Increase the presence of African-Americans, women and other t r a d i tionally underrepresented groups among the faculty, staff, administrators, and in the student body at both the graduate and undergraduate levels. • Provide incentives for making necessary changes in institutional policies and programs to create a truly diverse campus community.

Richardson) Appalachian State University's Health Services started the process to be­ come accredited this month when surveys were put in the infirmary to evaluate the procedures that need to be updated and revised. "The main purpose for the sur­ vey is to help eliminate the wait," Jenni­ fer Craven, a graduate assistant of the Student Health Advisory Council (SHAC) said. Craven said the infirmary's main purpose is to keep students in class and the best way to do that is by speeding up the process for getting students in and out. Dr. William A. Derrick, director of Health Services, said that the survey is an initial, simple type of survey to deter­ mine what changes should be made and that other surveys will follow. Derrick said all facilities in the University of North Carolina system have been asked to look into the procedure for becoming an accredited facility. Appalachian's Health Services, according to Derrick, hopes to be accred­ ited in one and a half years. Derrick said the accreditation pro­ cess will increase costs. Accreditation will cost $15,000. Appalachian's Health Services did not see a need earlier to become accred­ ited because, according to Derrick, like the vast majority of health care facilities in the United States they did not need any­ one to tell them that they were doing a fine job. "It (the accreditation process) is going to cost money that we could use elsewhere," Derrick said. However, he explained, the cost will be worth it. "We are moving into a new era of health care," he said. The accreditation will be very important in the future when health care refonns guarantee coverage for every stu- See Reform Page 3 Appalachian is published with support from Appalachian's Center for Student Involvement and Leadership.

Clinton told reporters at a news conference in the Phillippines, "I believe that the United States is certainly just as strong as it ever has been." Clinton went on to say the power over foreign affairs is "vested in the president by the con­ stitution is quite clear." Republicans Face Reality Robert Dole, the future Senate majority leader, said de­ spite GOP enthusiasm, "fulfilling the party's contract with America may come very, very slowly." According to Dole, "some Republicans were feeling their oats" after last week's Republican landslide, but change will come slowly. Dole downplayed the chances for quick tax cuts for the middle-class, bans on abortion, and a reversal of gun-control laws.

He said most of the teamtaught classes are interdisciplinary, and instructors try to vary them­ selves to present a diverse curricu­ lum. yjq yy as suggested by the committee. • Encourage faculty and staff to provide support for stu­ dents who are African American, women or members of other tra­ ditionally underrepresented groups.

Kristin Langdon (r) checks over the ^ Zr the Greytone Lodge where she's been /"or three years, (photos by Jen Long} r Many of us joke about how we live at work, because we spend so much time there. Kristin Langdon does it literally. "When my roommate moved out, I found my­ self in a bind. Living there (the Greytone Lodge) is mutually beneficial." By working at the lodge, Langdon is able to pay her rent and bills. By living there, they have an employee on call at all hours. Langdon, a senior, has been an employee of the lodge for three years, even when it was previously known as the EconoLodge. She started working there for purely selfish reasons. She wanted to stay in Boone through the sum­ mer and couldn't ask her parents to help be­ cause she has a twin sister and a brother also in school. "I really like the job a lot," said Landon. "If I didn't, I wouldn't stay. It's one of the reasons I do what I do." Langdon tries to be there for her job because of the responsibility she feels toward them, but she has to go on with her everyday things. Balancing 16 hours of school and a 32-40 hour work week is no easy task. It's been hec­ tic for her, but it has never affected her grades before. "It gives me discipline because I know I have things to get done," Landon said. "Be­ ing on a schedule forces me to fit things into the time I have." Carrieann Valentine is another student that is well aware of the stresses involved in bal­ ancing classes with work. Valentine, a senior in the communications de­ partment, manages her time between classes, working 25 to 30 hours a week waiting tables at Piccadeli Cafe, and running track for the uni­ versity. "I wouldn't give any of it up, I love what I do," said Valentine. "Working for the things that you have gives you a sense of responsibility. It makes you appreciate what you have even more." Balancing so many activities takes a great deal of self-control and time management. On the days that Valentine works after school she has to fit her track workout into her lunch break. Valentine starts her day at 6:30 am., packing a lunch and getting her books together. "Get­ ting ready for class is never a challenge any more," she said.

Dr. Perry and his wife, Dr. Leslie Anne Perry, a professor at East Tennessee State Uni­ versity, have already invested over $15,000 into the system in the past year. The equipment he uses daily in the classroom is" valued at approxi­ mately little tougher and they reflect that his stu­ dents are retaining more. Kristie Idol, a junior public relations major, said " I am learning a lot. Before this class I knew how to work on a com­ puter, but now I know how the computer ' i t s e l f works." D r . Perry's students can be used as the exof how mulit-media can enhance learning in the classroom. The University does not recognize multi­ media as being a part of the classroom curriculum and is only looking at it as a possibility. "I have spent up to 20 hours a week preparing class lessons and presentations" $5,000. The prog r a m s used in M u 11 i -• media, depending on the sophistication of computer software, can range from $2,500 to $25,000. According to Dr. Perry, after he intro­ duced multi-media to the classroom, the level of the students learning and reten­ tion increased.

Class starts at 8 am and goes until 3:30, with an hour and a half in between to get in her workout. Then it's off to work. Waiting tables, Valentine is often working from 4 pm in the afternoon until 10 or 11 pm at night. With all the hours Langdon and Valentine put in at school and work, you may wonder how they get any studying done. Langdon's job al­ lows her to do some studying when things are slow but time management is an essential qual­ ity to have. Valentine doesn't have the option of study­ ing at work, though. "It's hard to come home and study after a long day," she said. "All I re­ ally want to do is crawl into bed and go to sleep. Unfortunately for me, that isn't an option." Time see Work page 6 Live fast now, pay later Jeff Leek Reporter Could there be a more viable example of longevity than those rockin', rollin' Stones? The glimmer twins (Jagger and Richards) recently turned 50. What about George Foreman? Last Saturday night (at age 46) he regained the World Heavy­ weight Boxing Championship. One might speculate on whether drugs, alcohol, and in Foreman's case, cheeseburgers, are a reasonable alternative to a healthy active lifestyle. By now, we've all heard about the guy who smokes like a freight train, drinks like a fish, and lives to be 100, but that's rolling the dice, and more than likely it's just good genetics. According to fitness writer Linda Henry, genetics, more than anything, contributes to liv­ ing longer. On the other hand, bad protoplasm is one of the main causes of early death, and something that's almost impossible to control. With seemingly tall odds stacked against the golden years, why bother with taking care of yourself? For starters, living right is important, (regardless of a few exceptions) and changing the things that are changeable is the key. A three-fold plan of exercise, proper nutrition and rest is the prescrip­ tion for a healthy life. For years, the medical community con­ sidered muscle weakness, illness and frailty as products of aging. New research shows that a lack of physical activity is more to blame. Without exercise, the ag­ ing process can be unpleasant. Lean muscle mass turns to fat, and the heart doesn't pump out as much blood, which causes the cardiovascular system to slow down. Consider this: Recent studies have shown that more rapid deterioration in these areas begin around age 30, but can be reversed with a proper weight lifting and aerobic regimen. For those beyond 30, never fear. Implementing physical ac­ tivity can begin at any age. The point is — stop procrastinating! Now that you've got your body in gear, don't forget about the fuel. Proper nutri­ tion is a must for continued health. The ideal athletic diet should focus on com­ plex carbohydrates, (such as whole grain, oats, wheat, rice, etc...) and should make up 70 percent of the diet. Protein sources from vegetables like peas, beans and tofu, or lean meat such as chicken or fish should total 15 percent. As a reminder, fat intake (less than 20 percent) is rec­ ommended. Vitamins and minerals are a great addition to any diet. These can­ not take the place of food, but instead help extract energy from nutrients, enabling the person to re­ ceive the full benefits of their ^m food intake. A well-balanced diet will improve appearance, energy lev­ els, and will guard against heart disease, diabetes and cancers of the colon and breast later on. As a college student, you're getting plenty of rest, right? It may not seem im­ portant now, but a lack of sleep can have serious side affects, especially coupled with exercise. Not getting proper sleep, particularly after a workout, doesn't give the muscle time to recuperate and can actually cause muscle tissue to feed off itself. Regular sleep (eight hours a night) is a must for muscle recuperation, concen­ tration, and optimum health. If you suf- Exercise, proper nutrition and rest is the prescription for a healthy life see Health page 6 �The Appalachian, Tuesday J & Brooks Small Reporter When I first heard Danzig around five years ago after the re­ lease of "Danzig I," I never thought Danzig would be anywhere close to mainstream. Then through word of mouth and good music, the dark, netherworld band de­ buted its third album in the top 20. To top it off, earlier this year "Mother '93," a live version of a song off their first album, became an MTV Buzzclip. Although I doubt Glenn Danzig cared too much for becoming a buzzclip, he has probably faced up to the fact his band is pretty popu­ lar for a group whose major topics are death and denouncing God. Their latest effort, appropriately titled "Danzig iy" involves much of the same lyrical content, includ­ ing songs like "Brand New God" and "Bringer of Death." The mu­ sic is still strong, guitar driven, blues-influenced metal. There is, on the new album, a greater abundance of powerful ballads showcasing Danzig's bel­ lowing voice. The best examples of this are "Going Down to Die" and "Let It Be Captured." When he's not screaming at the heavens, Glenn Danzig's baritone is at its best when its slow and sad. It causes these two songs to become (surprise!) moving and touching. Then there is the typical Danzig fare like "Until You Call on the Dark," whose video was banned from MTV (how's that for a buzzclip). Guitarist John Christ's screeching harmonics, a driving beat, and lyrics like "I wanna be your misery/I wanna be the world you fear/ I wanna be the Christ who dies upon the fires of infamy" may be pretty familiar to Danzig fans and pretty offensive to every­ one else. But if a formula works, why change it? Glenn Danzig has brought some­ thing new with him on this album, though. While his other albums consisted of mostly bravado, there is some very blatant self-doubt on more than a few tracks on "Danzig IV" "Cantspeak" and "Son of the Morning Star," two of the album's best songs, are seeping with doubt. A sample from "Cantspeak" in­ cludes "Can't speak/Can't lie/Can't go anywhere to hide/Can't think/ Can't cry/Keep thinking of a sui­ cide." As this track goes on Danzig's voice becomes increasingly dis­ torted, making the song even more disturbine to listen to. Could it be that Glenn Danzig is becoming weary of his evil ways? Then again, who am I to psychoanalyze Glenn Danzig? The best song on the album is "Stalker Song." Danzig shows no evidence of doubt in this one, as the music is bluesy, dirty, and hard. So are the lyrics, which I probably would not be allowed to print for the campus newspaper. With a title like "Stalker Song" you can imag­ ine. Basically, if you've gotten into the other Danzig albums, you'll like this one at least as much as the others. Danzig's appeal lies in his ability to make us all feel like the bad guy for a while. Glenn Danzig has made a fulltime job out of being the bad guy, and with each new album he's proving he's getting so good at it's a little scary. cont/'f7 fer from insomnia, underlying fac­ tors such as depression or physi­ cal illness could be the answer. A visit to the ASU infirmary or your family doctor could help. Finally, do away with bad hab­ its. Alcohol, drug abuse and ciga­ rette smoking are dangerous. The latter kills as many annually as it would take to fill two jumbo jets. As a college student, staying away from smoking and other vices might be easier said than done. As a health-conscious adult, moderation should (at the least) be a consideration.

Would you believe that you have the oppor­ tunity to study in Russia? The College of Business offers a onemonth program in St. Petersburg located on the Baltic Sea and only a few hours train ride from the Arctic circle. The program is the latest of a flurry of activities for Appalachian faculty and students in St. Peters­ burg. Five students traveled to Russia in the Fall of 1993 and settled for two months in St. Pe­ tersburg. They worked on intern­ ships, studied Russian and earned a full load of credits in various courses offered by the College of Business.

Dr. Jean-Pierre Courbois, an economics professor at Appalachian, spent four months in St. Petersburg last year work­ ing on a research project and de­ veloping internship opportunities for Appalachian students. These investments are starting to pay off with increasing contacts with local universities, the govern­ ment and the business community. "We have many friends in St. Petersburg and they are begging us for help while preparing to re­ ceive us as well," said Courbois. "More than 500 Americans have already started businesses in the city but far more are needed." Dr. Jeremy Fox in the manage­ ment department in the COB will be leading the study abroad pro­ gram this summer. A group of stu­ dents will spend three weeks in St. Petersburg and one week in Po­ land. On the way back is a stop­ over in Amsterdam.' Many of the students currently signed up for the trip have decided to spend ad­ ditional time in Western Europe. After the long Russian winter, spring in St. Petersburg delightful.

In front of ASU were two teams tied for first, number nine ranked Tennessee, and their SEC rival, Alabama. The ASU team had previously beaten the Alabama squad and will seek vengeance at the upcoming national meet. Saturday's race was filled with excitement as the ASU run­ ners jockeyed for place over the 6.2 mile golf course loop. Making a habit of leading the ASU team was sophomore Tom Holland. Tom ran with the lead pack of runners until about three miles. At that point, the leaders began surging, making it difficult for Holland to hang on. Holland's 31:11, 14th place finish (sixth American) earned him a spot on the "All-Region" squad. Also making the "All-Region" squad was John Crumbliss. Crumbliss trailed Holland by 11 seconds to finish in 20th. "It hurt from mile two on, but then, ...it's supposed to," Crumbliss said. Another 12 seconds behind Crumbliss was the unheralded freshman success story of Seth Peoples. Peoples finished twentyninth, the highest ever by an ASU freshman. Peoples reflected on his rapid acclimation into the realm of NCAA division one athletics. "Just a few short months ago I was racing the kid from the other side of town, now I'm racing some of the best in the world," Peoples said. Brian Miesch ran a solid race to finish in 35th, 31:43. Behind Brian was captain Alan Whicker in 56th, 32:13. Roommates Whicker and Miesch are both eagerly await­ ing another shot to run under 31:00 in Fayetteville. Rounding out the Mountaineer's varsity seven was a gutsy and im­ pressive performance from fresh­ man Judson Sarver. Sarver's 90th place finish was earned after he impressively passed over 20 people in the last portion of the race. Jamie Griggs will also be making the trek to Fayetteville after finish­ ing 147th in Greenville. The race was won by Tony One bedroom furnished apartment for rent available Nov. 1st. Oak St. Apts.

Cosey did not solidify his victory until nearly the last eighth of a mile. He led an impressive pack of elite, imported athletes. Following him to Fayetteville are the next five indi­ viduals not affiliated with a team that qualified. These are: Passmore Furusa, LSU, John Nganga, Eastern Kentucky, Gray Mavhera, South Florida, Kevin Graham, Georgia Tech, and Nicho­ las Aliwell of Western Kentucky. After extending their season another week, assistant coach Paul Goewey said, "We achieved every one of our preseason goals. Luck­ ily, this weekend's qualification will extend my stay at ASU for another week." After 14 years of being a stu­ dent or assistant coach at ASU, Goewey is now venturing back north to be the head coach at Fitchburg State in Massachusetts. While ASU's third place finish was outstanding, it was not un­ foreseen. Many have noticed the team's ascendancy to the national elite level. There is one unique thing about the team that made them somewhat of a hero to other teams at the regional meet on Sat­ urday. Unlike Tennessee or Alabama, ASU's budget and attraction to superstar recruits is not up to par with the other powerhouse teams of the region. Teams well-en­ dowed and those not-so-well-endowed alike bid ASU good luck at the upcoming national meet. ASU's 'blue collar' attitude has gotten them thus far and will hopefully carry them to a quality finish at the national meet. The team put together five solid races, but still has plenty of room to up the ante at nationals. "Realistically, we can be one of the top 15 teams in the nation, but I'd like for us to shoot for the top 10," Head Coach A1 Fereshetian said. The NCAA flies the team to Arkansas on Friday. There, the team must prepare to run against not only the best teams in the na­ tion but a number of Olympic and World Championship veterans as well. "It's a once in a lifetime op­ portunity," said Holland about the forthcoming meet. That is cer­ tainly true, but Holland and the rest of the returning team have every intention of making it hap­ pen again in 1995.

Appalachian is four wins away from matching the league record for most wins in a season. The 1985 Mountaineer squad holds the record, winning 30 games behind the play of Kym Ballard, Traci Blankenship, and Kristen Smith.

Department of Transportation began installation of a traffic light on River Street in front of Walker Hall last week. Roy Tugman, di­ rector of University Police, said the work­ men have encountered a few delays, in­ cluding a burst water line Wednesday. He said he expects the light to be "up and running" by the first or second week in December, depending on the weather. "It (the installation) was supposed to be quite some time ago," Dr. Terry Cole, chairman of the communications depart­ ment, said. "I'm glad the university is af­ ter it." Cole was struck by a motorist in September when attempting to cross in the crosswalk. Tugman said the crossing guard will remain in the crosswalk at least a week after the light is activated so stu­ dents and staff can become accustomed to the new light. see Light page 2 ivernment internships offered The coordinator of the N.C.

Langer, an author and professor at Simmons College in Boston, who has studied the holocaust for 26 years, gave a presentation titled "Holocaust Testimo­ nies: Interpreting Survivor Testimonies" in which he showed clips of survivor tes­ timonies recorded on video and discussed the lack of choices for Jewish prisoners. "They had what 1 call a choiceless choice," Langer said. 'There was no good or bad — only bad or worse." In one video testimony, a survivor recalled how his mother had to kill her newborn baby because their family was in hiding and could not take a chance on the baby crying. "This is a case of situational eth­ ics," Langer said." Langer also said many survivors suffer from what he calls the "missed des­ tiny of death." see Survivors page 2 Brown previews new attendance legislation Reporter tolen Vehicle ^ews & Ditchdigger D.O.T. workmen have begun laying the electrical wires for the new River St. stop light, (photo by Jen Long) Ken Larking An unidentified Appalachian ale student reported an acquainjdce rape Hiesday to University Po:e, according to Foster.

An anonymous flyer posted around Appalachian's campus raised the ire of Bill Leavell's Watauga County Campaign Man­ ager Sheila Ward last week. Ward filed charges with the Appa­ lachian State University Police Nov. 3, re­ garding the anonymous nature of the flyer, which she-said contained "untrue and negative allegations about the Leavell campaign." The flyer, which is a reproduction of an article found in the Oct. 27 issue of The Mountain Times, stated that Leavell admitted his supporters tried to smear his opponent, Claude B. Smith, in his recent campaign. While Ward is not pleased with the contents of the flyer, it is the flyer's anony­ mous nature that bothers her most., "Anonymous distribution of nega­ Reporter East Hall Assault cquaintance Rape Reporter tive political propaganda is a crime.

Peer re- view, as implemented at Appala­ chian, will not be used to improve teaching. Let me share with you why peer re­ view, as implemented here, will be worthless and maybe even harmful to student interests: • Peer review will make faculty members focus more on Strickland themselves (and less on students). Peer review will re-direct professors who otherwise would like to spend time in direct consul­ tation with their students to strange classrooms where they will observe another professor at work. This process, whether done by a watchful camera eye or a teach- ing colleague, will necessarily di­ vert professor time away from their own students. • Peer review will create another layer of bureaucracy and paperwork. Peer review, as imple­ mented at ASU, will require more than the time of teaching profes- "There is no research that shows that peer review improves teaching. Peer review will not weed out the "bad" teachers." sors. Instead of "teaching," the things we were hired to do, pro­ fessors will be: (1) developing objective instruments of evaluation to prop­ erly gauge that hard-to-measure concept of "good teaching;" (2) writing tomes on their teaching philosophies; (3) painting portraits Letters to the Editor App Police respond well to concert To the editor: I would like to take this opportunity to thank The Appalachian for their coverage of the Phish show ("Something smelled 'Phishy'" and "Goin' Phishing," Nov. 1). However, there are a couple of things about the first article that I would like to clarify. First, the person named in the article is not the Concerts Chairperson. He is, however, a valued member of the council. I feel it necessary to note this difference because being a member as opposed to the chairperson, he was not privy to all the information and did not know everything that was going on. Therefore, the article's following comments on the security of the show cannot be given full validity. The campus of Appalachian has never seen a concert of this type before, and thus did not know what to expect. In light of this, ASU Police and A.P.P.S. Concerts staff did an admirable job. Though the article says that many ticketless concert-goers "stampeded in," and others "opted to climb a 15-foot wall outside the Varsity Gym to sneak in," what it doesn't say is that ASU Police very readily turned them right back around and placed them outside. As for the "stampede," I was at the front door, and the number of people that actually got through did not reach double digits. The article also misquotes Johnson as saying, "There just weren't enough uniformed officers there." This quote was referring to one specific location at one specific time, not the entire gym. Even the best of us can't be everywhere all the time. The ASU Police did an outstanding job, as they always do, doing more than was expected, and more than could be expected. I would like to thank them on behalf of A.P.P.S. for their continued help. Bill Parrish A.P.P.S.

There is no research rhar shows that peer review im­ proves teaching. Peer review will not weed out the "bad" teachers. This is due to the fact that we still don't know how to measure "good" teaching — like obscenity, we know it when we see it. Peer review may have the opposite effect; it may cause pro­ fessors to behave conservatively in the classroom. They may avoid spontaneous classroom activities that involve student interactions (which can be unpredictable and not work as hoped) or innovative teaching methods. Instead, they may focus on the tried and true, superb or­ ganization, pleasant usage of the blackboard, good voice projection and other stylistic concerns. We professors interact in­ formally all the time, exchanging teaching trade secrets, how to im­ prove this, how to manage that. Now the process must be formal­ ized, depersonalized and bureaucratized to the point where col­ leagues won't wish to interact in­ formally anymore. Do students notice any­ thing wrong here? This entire dis­ cussion centers around the profes­ sors, not the students. In conclu­ sion, peer review will not benefit students — so why are we doing this? Students beware and write your legislators in the N.C. General Assembly and the Univer­ sity Board of Trustees — this innot in your best interests. Doug Glenn Guest Columnist Glenn is a 1977Appalachian graduate. I'm sorry that Donald B. Saunders has bought his last ticket to a Southern Conference football game ("App Umbrella policy ab­ surd," Nov.3), notably those played here at ASU. However, I am not sorry for the reason on which he has based his decision. I stand in com­ plete agreement with (and have pushed hard for) the new policy of not allowing umbrellas in the stands during football games. The only thing I am sorry about is that it took so long to be implemented within the conference and espe­ cially here at Appalachian. Mr. Saunders spoke nf those folks in the decision-making positions who sit comfortably watching games from "nice, soft Vn„ P—J "- ference is "Mickey Mouse" for hav­ ing such a policy. But, it is precisely because of new ideas like this that " No longer do we have to put up with the inconvenience of those who have blocked our view and poured rain down our laps" seats in climate controlled and cov­ the Southern Conference is start­ ered comfort."

ACES revision addresses legalities To the Editor: I would like to address some of the issues and concerns surrounding the Appalachian Community and Environmental Stewardship (ACES) fee. First, in order to eliminate many of the legal questions, ACES has been rewritten and will no longer be a voluntary fee. However, if a student does not wish to support ACES, they will be able to redirect this fee to go towards Belk Library instead. This strengthens ACES as it will now have a positive impact all the way around. Contrary to some opinions that have been expressed in The Appalachian, ACES does not ask students to completely fund both the Alternative Transportation Project and the purchase of Howard's Knob. Funding is being sought on a number of levels for alternative transportation. Presently, the Town of Boone has agreed to give 2 percent of its operating budget to fund the project, and $1 million has been requested from the N.C. Department of Transportation. If these are the only sources of funding, it has been estimated that we would not see the plan implemented for about 10 years! By supporting ACES, we will be able to drastically speed up that process. Concerning Howard's Knob, ACES would fund most or all of the purchase of the land. This is legitimate when we consider all that ASU will get out of the purchase. First, we would protect our water supply. Second, we would be able to "develop" the land into a multi-use area for students and citizens of Watauga County. It could be used by the sciences and the Health and Leisure Studies Dept. Outdoor Programs, ROTC, and Camp Broadstone (which is owned by the university) would be able to expand their activities on the land. Third, it would allow ASU students to provide a solution to an issue that is important to many of the people living here. Presently, a large group of students has formed the Appalachian Student Coalition (ASC) to call for a democratic, campus-wide referendum that will allow us to decide for ourselves whether we want to adopt the fee. ACES will provide ASU students, which means to take responsibility for the community in which we live. This will be the first time students have been able to democratically decide where our money goes, and could see a precedent for the entire UNC system. The passing of ACES will be a tremendous victory for all parties Send Letters to The Editor to ASU Box 9025 or drop them by The Appalachian offices on the 2nd floor of the student Union. seats 30 minutes before game time. I stand a lot and yell a lot because that is what you are sup­ posed to do at football games! And you can't do that while huddling under an umbrella. The single greatest atmo­ sphere ever at an ASU football game took place on a rainy night against Marshall a few weeks ago. It appears the lack of allowing umbrellas in the stands did not keep many fans away or deter from their excitement and enjoy­ ment of the game. Mr. Saunders, if you missed that game because of your hardheadedness towards this policy,I am truly sorry for you. involved. Jonas Monast ASU Box 5459 Member, Watauga High Country Land Trust Board of Ends continued from page 4 When Schofield first went before the student senate to force ACES down its throat, he let fly un­ substantiated claims of the support for the increase. He said: 1) a se­ nior member of the Board of Trust­ ees supported ACES yet Schofield never identified him, 2) that he had taken the ACES proposal to outside legal firms and they sup­ ported its legality yet again failed to specify a name, and 3) a peti­ tion of over 6,000 students sup­ ported "any means necessary" to save the Knob though the petition itself simply questioned if the per­ son supported saving the Knob. Schofiled also defended the negative check-off system over a positive check-off? Why? Schofield recognizes the apathy of Appalachian students as well as the fact that parents pay tuition. Again, that is deceitful and unethi­ cal, yet it is the road Schofield chose. Now we have the newand-improved ACES fee which combines Schofield's two loves, the library and a mountain top. A petition for a referendum has been signed by 1,607 students. But what about the other 10,000 plus students at Appalachian? "Mostly they are just con­ fused but definitely interested," said Coltrane senator John Fickesimer. With Schofield dealing the cards, is it any wonder? �Writing the Bobby Doe II t4««M l«k*<«74t71 SSVW-HM (W) Perfect Pesume agJECTlVF I Pssiuon as director of a private nonprofit corporation dedicated to the development of communities I through housing I EMP1 OVMF »>IJ | June. 1993 a October 1993 [ August. 1991 to June. 1993 January. 1990 I August. 1990 I to May. 1991 moUSjOBS RESIDENT ASSISTANT ORAL ROBERTS COLLEGE Coordinated housing .ents for 3.000 students.

If you're inexperienced, going in on an entry-level position keep your resume down to one page. If you've had many jobs and achievements in college, narrow it down to the ones most useful to the job to which you are applying. You may think that a fat resume will impress a potential employer. But a fat resume full of experiences in burger-flipping which doesn't pertain to the job you want will impress that resume right into the trash can.

However, the team is going to need some playing time on the court before any predictions about the entire season can be made ac­ cording to Cook, and they will be facing several formidable oppo­ nents before their conference schedule begins. Teams like Okla­ homa State and Nebraska stand in the Mountaineers path to success. However, Cook believes that these games will be stepping stones to the team's success later in the sea­ son. "Those games should be a good experience for the younger guys, and we'll be learning as a team [as well]," Cook said. Cook believes his game has been maturing and feels he has improved his game since last sea­ son. "I've been shooting the ball a lot more effectively and I'm pass­ ing the ball a lot better," Cook said. "I'm just trying to move the team better on the court."

Chip Hooks, Damon Scott, and Aldwin Lance are all injured and question­ able for the game. Appalachian comes into the game averaging 210.9 yards rushing per game but will struggle on the ground if all three sit out. The Mountaineers will prob­ ably focus more on their strong passing attack to tame the Cata­ mount defense. Receivers Don Blue and Otis Smith have com­ bined for 716 yards and six touch­ downs this season. A strong per­ formance by them and the rest of the receiving corps is essential to an Appalachian victory.

Police arrested Jorge Garcia Perez, 17, of 149 Hay St., Boone, around 3 a.m. at his home. Perez was charged with assault on a female. According to University Police, Perez was charged in two separate inci­ dents of assault. Both occurred on Sun­ day. The first incident took place around 4 p.m. between Rankin Science Building and Varsity Gymnasium. Perez allegedly approached a female student while he was on a bicycle. According to the victim, Perez grabbed her around the waist and said "You like." As she pulled away from him, she noticed that his pants were unbuttoned. The victim then ran to Gardner Hall, where she contacted Uni­ versity Police. The second incident allegedly occurred at 10:45 p.m. beside Dougherty Parking Lot on River Street. According to police, Perez supposedly approached an­ other female student, while on bicycle, and grabbed her while he made sexual gestures. The victim broke free and ran to Coltrane Hall and notified University police. According to University Police Capt. Larry Foster, both victims picked Perez out of a lineup early Monday morn­ ing. Foster said Perez has been taken before the magistrate and put on a $600 secured bond. KLiaSMS Hit * mm J b lenate Tonight...

Students ex­ pressed tremendous school spirit, the foot­ ball team won the game and this year's Homecoming Oueen, Emily Catheryne Baker, was crowned. Residence hall competitions and a parade kicked off the weekend Friday with school spirit shining through. The parade started at 4 p.m. on Rivers Street, toured Boone, and ended by Lackey Baseball Field. A few residence halls, fraternities, sororities and candidates for political of­ fice lined up to ride through town. Chancellor Francis T. Borkowski, the Grand Marshall of events, was riding in a vintage Mustang convertible. Boone Mayor Velma Burnley followed behind. With the theme "Take Yosef Around the World," floats were decorated accordingly, including a Viking ship fea­ turing the Appalachian State University Ambassadors. Dr. Larry Keeter, professor of so­ ciology, Dr. Pat Morgan, professor of po­ litical science and Dr. David Spiceland, assistant professor of communication, judged the entries. Coffey and Belk Halls tied for this year's Chancellor's Cup. Hoey Residence Hall took the second place Vice Chancellor's Cup. Competition included numerous activities, ranging from a canned food drive to a spirit yell and banner competi­ tion, to the Goodwill Games of Appala­ chian, the Unity Games. Marilee Chesney, vice president of programming for the Campus Resident Student Association, gave a breakdown of which residence halls won certain events. "The competition is based on a points system and Coffey and Belk tied with the same amount of points," Chesney said. P.O. accused of dirty politicking Manya Brachear News Editor Two organizations accused the University Post Office of tampering with political mailouts last week. Appalachian's chapter of People For Animad Liberation (RA.L.) and the Watauga County Democratic Party attempted to mail flyers to Appalachian State Univer­ sity students last week concerning candi­ dates in today's election. Neither of the flyers were completely mailed out. Glenn Hodges, Democratic Clerk of Court candidate, said about 500 of the first-class mailouts had been returned from Appalachian's Post Office because names and box numbers did not match, according to Greg Foster, University Post­ master. "We thought we were discrimi­ nated against," Loretta Claussen, chair­ woman of the Democratic Party, said. Foster said, on the contrary, postal workers searched for forwarding ad­ dresses and alternate box numbers. He said he tried to do the Democrats a favor by returning undeliverable mail to the headquarters rather than the dead letter office. "There's no hidden agenda, no conspiracy," he said. Foster estimates the same num­ ber of Republican mailouts have had mis­ matched box numbers and as a result have been destroyed because they have been bulk rate. The Democrats' mailing was See P.O. Page 2 Baker wears tiara well Stacey Evans Reporter "It's not going to be me. It's not going to be me" thought Emily Catheryne Baker as she walked on the field as part of the 1994 homecoming court Saturday. That all changed when she heard her name called as the 1994 Ap­ palachian State University Homecom­ ing Queen. "It is such a wonderful feeling and an honor" Baker said. "I love be­ ing a student here and I have great pride in the university." Baker was escorted by her mother, Linda Baker. Both were shocked and excited she had won. "Because my dad isn't alive anymore, I wanted my mom to be hon­ ored by escorting me," Baker said. "I'm giving credit where credit is due." Bakers father passed away six years ago. Although she isn't sure of her duties, Baker said she is grateful for the opportunity to represent Appalachian in any way. A senior marketing major with an international business minor, Baker is involved in many campus activities. She is a member of Delta Zeta sorority and the American Marketing As­ sociation, who she represented on court.

World's 2nd telescope at ASU Kristen Laciano Reporter Appalachian State University astronomy majors will soon have the largest and most modern telescope in the region at their fingertips. A new 32-inch Cassegrain reflector telescope, only the second one in the world so far is scheduled to arrive this winter or early spring. Dr. Daniel Caton, associate professor of physics and astronomy and direc­ tor of the Dark Sky Observatory, said the telescope is a major step and will make a big difference in the department. "We've been using refurbished, used telescopes," Caton said. "We're on a shoestring budget, which makes it hard to do science. The old telescopes are 'userhostile'." The new telescope features a thin, lightweight mirror, a computer support and a state-of-the-art guidance system. The arrival of the telescope has been delayed because the optics are com­ ing off another telescope at the University of Munich in the Bavarian Alps.

(Sixteen years according to one of them.) I am distressed that the student body has permitted these Greeks to push them around in this manner.

The wind is whipping ferociously against the building. You look out the frost-covered window. "It looks like it may snow today," you say to your­ dr; self. You head for your closet, looking for some­ thing that may fend off the cold weather. "A sweatshirt, jeans, a hat, earmuffs, a scarf, and a pair of gloves," you mumble as you look through the closet. "It seems like I'm forgetting Don't wear just one jacket-wear two; something, though. Ah, that's it, my trusty old along with a sweater, turtle neck or boots." You then race off to class, hoping you have t-shirt underneath. Just make sure dressed accordingly. they match Living in Boone, we face this scenario quite often, in the fall and winter. But there are precautions we must take to avoid becoming one of the millions of people who will be frostbitten in the country this year. Kit Olsen, coordinator of the Wellness Center, said the best way to keep warm during the winter is to wear Long johns or a pair of sweat layered clothing. "Wearing several layers is better than pants over jeans help protect from U[ '• i . ^ i'i I I wearing one heavy layer;" she said, "because you can take the cold and help cushion those • off a layer or two when you become too hot." frequent falls on ice Senior Trey Luce puts on plenty of layers when the ther­ mometer falls. "I wear a jacket on cool days," Luce said. "But when it gets cold, I'll wear a t-shirt, flannels, a jacket and probably an overcoat." It may be warm, but according to Olsen it may not be safe. When asked what the leading factor in people endangering their lives in the cold is, Olsen responded, "People sometimes cut off their circulation by wearing too many clothes. You want to wear layered clothing but not to the point where you are uncomfortable. All you need to do is dress with the idea of keep­ ing dry." Other tips on keeping dry include wearing waterproof shoes and gloves. "When it comes to the gloves, it depends on what you are doing," said Olsen. "You wouldn't want huge gloves while doing a small job, such as driving a car. You want to keep your hands warm, but you don't want to keep your gloves from hindering what you are doing." Everyone has problems with ice. We slip and slide over campus f Warm gloves or mittens VI throughout the school year. Olsen said students should choose shoes help keep your fingers that have good treads on them. from going numb "I see many people every year with these beautiful boots but with no traction. Some do have the very small treads, but they make you slide even faster." She went on to say students should buy no-slick bottom boots because they have good heavy tread or use athletic shoes because they "tend not to slip as bad." Sophomore Tony Hairston knows how to keep a sure footing and stay Waterproof boots are a must warm. as six inch snow drifts "'The majority of the time I will have on a thick jacket, a sweater, a tobog­ attempt to soak your socks gan, a pair of gloves, insulated socks, snow boots and flannels," Hairston said. and nip your toes During the winter season, many people drink alcohol because they think it is keeping them warm, but in fact, it is lowering their body temperature. "This lowering of the body temperature leads to hypothermia," Olsen said. "It ti , w _ makes the blood vessels get tighter and narrows the blood passage." So when dressing to combat the breath of Jack Frost remember, don't just dress art by Austin Harris to be warm, dress to be safe. 'A X A king and his porcelain throne D9 Bryson Betts Columnist Rob S"ftp £~ w- Everyone has had the experience (pleas­ ant or otherwise) of using the restroom fa­ cilities on campus at one point or another. Not the dormitory bathrooms, which are all the same, but the ones in the academic, ath­ letic, and administrative buildings. A true measure of a good educational institution is the quality of its bathrooms. Many of you out there do not really notice or really care about the bathrooms you use on campus. Just as long as there is a flushable toilet that is not stopped up and doesn't make your butt sticky, a person could care less about his or her surroundings. Yet there are those of us, both in the stu­ dent body and faculty, who like to critique the bathrooms we use. To us, ambiance is ev­ erything. It heightens the experience and makes the business at hand more enjoyable. The more graffiti the better; it gives us new insight to those who regularly use the par­ ticular bathroom as well as keeping us occu­ pied while we tinkle. For example, in Chapel Wilson, which is one of the older buildings on campus and thus has some of the oldest bathrooms, one can be mesmerized by profound statements such as: "If the doors of perception were cleansed, everything would appear to man as it is, infi­ nite. William Blake," or humorous sayings like, "Flush twice it is a long way to Horn In the West." Other bathrooms feature graffiti that re­ flects the student's feelings and emotions of their respective departments. Examples include one from the second floor of Rankin Science Budding:" Don't just stand there, do what comes naturally," or an­ other from the ground floor of the same building, the Physics/Astrology/Geology floor: "Stardate 1986.09: Spock and I beamed down for a poop." Of course there are a multitude of po­ litical and social views, most of which con­ tain language that cannot be printed due to the lack of imagination on the authors of the graffiti, or their small knowledge of intelligent words. Anyway, here are some that can be shown: "Why are all Conservatives against Conservation?." "Young Republicans: A contradiction in terms.", and some referring to the lack of proper materials the school provides: "Apple IIe= FORNEVER!", and "Do you suffer from insomnia, then read an An­ thropology book!" Size and the design of the bathrooms is also important. The bigger a bathroom is, the less likely the probability that you will be alone during your experience. In some stalls your knees hit the door when you sit down, and it is an exercise in yoga to wipe yourself clean and pull up your pants. On the other hand some are big enough to pull in a TV and stereo. And to the architect who put all the standup toi­ lets beside each other : how about a little privacy!? Cnmahmoc there is nnf anu Inrlr on tho Sometimes thoro io not any lock nn the stall door, so one must prop one's feet on the door lest someone else in their haste to attain that "higher experience" might burst in while one is doing their thing. Colors of ASU bathrooms provoke emo­ tions ranging from depression or bore­ dom, like the Raley Hall bathrooms with drab gray and red motifs, to melancholy and mellow in bathrooms with late six­ ties and early seventies yellows, browns, and greens; such as Rankin Science, Belk Library and Edwin Duncan Education building. Chapel Wilson was the only one that I had been to that actually made me feel cozy, with its plaster walls and old style sinks and mirrors. As for my personal opinions on needed upgrades for all the bathrooms: 1) reading materials, such as The Appa­ lachian, to pass the time when the graffiti gets old. 2) rails or handlebars, so you don't have to grit your teeth. 3) pictures of rivers and waterfalls to give added inspiration in times of need. 4) moving to 4-ply toilet paper rather than see-through 1-ply paper for addi­ tional absorbtion qualities. So, if you have thoughts, ideas, or ex­ periences that you would like to share with me and the rest of ASU, please send them in and we'll get around to compil­ ing and printing them. And when people say to you, "Why do you spend so much time in the bathroom?" you simply re­ spond, 'To escape." �The Appalachian, Tue: You Know...

Lance started his afternoon on Appalachian's second play from scrim­ mage as he galloped 75 yards down field to give the Mountaineers an early 7-0 lead. The App defense held the Flames in check on their first two possessions, but quarterback Antwan Chiles broke through and connected with William Allen from four yards out to tie the score at 7-7. Chiles had his way with the Appala­ chian defense, passing for 393 yards and four touchdowns in the game. On the ground, Chiles rushed for 41yards and yet another touchdown. After a 25-yard field goal by Jay Sutton, Liberty returned with a 61-yard pass from Chiles to Allen to give Liberty a 14-10 lead. Liberty struck again with 8:42 left in the first half as Chiles and Allen connected for their third touchdown of the game. The 33-yard strike took the score to 21-10 in favor of the Flames. Appalachian's offense struggled in the first half after the early heroics of Lance. running back Aldwin Lance stepped in for the injured Chip Hooks and rushed for 205 yards, (photo by Keith Jackson) Scott Satterfield fumbled after being sacked deep in Mountaineer territory. Lib­ erty recovered and converted the turnover into a Dan Whitehead field goal to boost the Flame lead to 24-10. That would be the largest lead Liberty would enjoy in the game. The Mountain­ eer offense picked up a head of steam and drove from their own 23 yard line to score on an lance run to make the score 24-17. An interception by Matt Stevens with 41 seconds left in the half gave the ball back to the Mountaineers on the Liberty 32 yard line. Sutton hit from 37 yards out with no time remaining to pull Appa­ lachian to within four as the teams went into the locker rooms. Feeling a sense of urgency, the Moun­ taineers came out with greater intensity in the second half. After giving up a Lib­ erty field goal, Don Blue returned the en­ suing kickoff for 96 yards to the one-yard line. Satterfield punched it in on the next play to tie the score at 27-27. The Appalachian rushing attack came alive in the third quarter. Satterfield and Lance pushed the Liberty defense down the field until Lance scored to give Appa­ lachian the lead for the first time since the early moments of the contest. From there the teams battled back and fourth, both teams trading touchdowns in the fourth quarter. Chiles connected with Tony Daws from 57 yards out to tie the score at 34-34. Satterfield then scored his second touchdown of the afternoon to give Ap­ palachian a 41-34 lead. Chiles then pulled his team together in the waning moments of the game and drove the length of the field scoring a touchdown to make the score 41-40. A controversial two-point conversion try failed and gave the Mountaineers the onepoint win.

The Bulldogs were 3-5 overall and 1-4 in the Southern Conference. They needed a win to get a step closer to the .500 level for the season. Last week, UTC played well in the first half and led Appalachian State at the half. This week, the Mocs played strong in the first half against the Bulldogs but faltered in the second half and took the loss. The Citadel got on the scoreboard first with a Garrick Haltewanger one-yard run. The Mocs came back and scored on a seven-yard pass to Derek Hall from Kenyon Earl. UTC was able to grind out the offense against the Citadel on UTC's first possession, ferry Wilburn and Kenyon Earl kept the ball on the ground before their first score of the game. The Mocs took the lead and control of the game, but the momentum shifted when Terrance Rivers carried around the right end for 30 yards to the UTC seven-yard line. On the next play, Travis Jervey rocketed up the middle to nail the TD for The Citadel. The Citadel had the lead, 14-10, but UTC came back. The Mocs put together a 75-yard drive capped by a nine-yard carry by Marrio Grier to put the Mocs in front. The big play of the first half came with 20 seconds left in the second quarter when Kenny Parkman intercepted C.J. Haynes' pass and returned it 36 yards to the 26 yard line of The Citadel. Josh Siefken ended the drive with his second field goal of the game. UTC entered halftime with a 20-14 lead. The Bulldogs paid attention when Ap­ palachian avenged a halftime defiqjt the week before. The Citadel outscored UTC by a 28-6 count, sending the Mocs home wishing they could win just one on the road.

Neither team was able to capitalize on any of their scoring opportunities, however, and the match went into overtime. Time began to take its toll on the Mountaineer defense, as steady and relendess offense of the Wildcats continued to press the Apps. Finally, seven minutes into the first overtime period, the Wild­ cats scored their first goal. Giving them a 1-0 lead. Scoring a second goal in the second overtime period, the Wildcats ended the Apps' hopes of a comeback and the remainder of the season with a 2-0 win.

Chaney's frustrations were and are directed at the NCAA Presidents Commission, which re­ cently rescinded a proposal to al­ low ineligible freshmen to regain a fourth year of eligibility if their academic progress is satisfactory. Although the details are fuzzy to the casual observer, Janu­ ary was almost witness to a coaches' boycott. The Black Coaches Association, represented by such college hoops giants as Georgetown's John Thompson, George Raveling from U. of South­ ern California, and Chaney, founded their stance on academic standards that they felt were un­ fair. The main objective at that time was to gain one extra varsity scholarship per Division I school, and the beneficiaries of this poten­ tial ride were to be (primarily) kids from disadvantaged communities. The Presidents Commis­ sion, compromised by removing SAT scores as a qualifier. However, not only has the commission now revoked this promise, but it turns out that the BCA wasn't impressed by the proposal in the first place— the contention is that a kid who earns the required 2.5 GPA wouldn't even have a problem with the SAT. REALIZING OUR PRIORITIES The story is an old one: a kid with exceptional athletic tal­ ent is taken in by a university. The kid is then used by the school to build a better sports program, the kid doesn't get much of an educa­ tion. This issue, like a balloon in the swimming pool, can only be submerged for so long. Even mov­ ies like "Blue Chips" and "The Pro­ gram" touch on the problems of college athletics. As idealistic as such a question sounds, why can't schools do what they should be meant to do? That is, couldn't colleges try to foster an interest in a greater variety of subjects, rather than sim­ ply exploit a talent? Just because a teen is physically gifted doesn't mean his skills on the playing field should be the alpha and omega of his life. Consider another sce­ nario. If Kid can't hack it in the classroom during that first year in college, then. Leave him off of the team. But let Kid have a chance to work toward eligibility the next year, and reward good results with an opportunity to make the team. And then give him a fourth year of play, like any other player. The benefits? A potential for a complete career and that learning experience from his first year, which makes him see the advantages of work. As Chaney said, "The Commission wants to increase academic integrity and we want to increase opportunity, but these things should not clash." WHAT'S FAIR? The BCA has taken this frosh eligibility up as a personal battle, but although minorities would be the most profoundly af­ fected, one study, revealed by the Charlotte Observer (Oct. 2), sug­ gests that as many as 600 white athletes would be affected, as well. The same study showed that up to 1400 minorities would become in­ eligible. The tendency of anyone not directly involved is to blow the whole discussion off, but this is­ sue shouldn't be mistaken as an isolated battle. It's not a case of athletes, or minorities, or minor­ ity athletes attempting to squeeze extra favors out of the NCAA. The BCA voiced their concerns at last month's National Association of Basketball Coaches Issues Summit, and be assured that the outcome of these meetings will have a seri­ ous bearing on where all college sports are headed. The scope of it all is large: don't rule out a future boycott threat. �Page 10 The Appalachian TUesd Quinn Center Appalachian News Quinn Center Fitness Clinics for fall semester w'li instructional workshops on Nautilus, Weight Tr'aj beg'n-1 r ' "»-'gni Tra Weight Loss, Walking, Racquetball, Jogging> a ''"n8.

SGA Vice President 262-6149 New apts. (Photo by Jason Fox) Senators soundly defeated the most recent proposal on the preservation of Howard's Knob and funding for alternative transportation, and introduced a revised Appalachian Community and Environmental Stewardship (ACES) proposal at Tuesday's Senate meet­ ing. The latest proposal, introduced by Student Government President J.D. Adams, asked part-time stu­ dent and Town Councilman Hunter Schofield to ap­ proach the council with legislation similar to the Ap­ palachian Community and Environmental Stewardship (ACES). Adams' proposal failed 38-20, with five ab­ stentions. During the debate, Off-Campus Senator Derek Shuler explained that the senate should look into ev­ ery possibility for providing funding for the goals. 'This should not be a burden taken on entirely by the students nor [entirely] by the community," he said. "I will not take this legislation to Boone Town Council," Schofield told senators. "I have to weigh the perhaps irreparable damage that can be done between campus/community relations if it were to get out that the Student Government Association was recommend­ ing a tax increase for the citizens of Boone." See Adams page 2 Vice Chancellor advances on Special to the Appalachian Dr. Jamep L. Strom, vice chancellor for university advancement at Appalachian State Uni­ versity has an­ nounced his res­ ignation effec­ tive next August. The announce­ ment follows the successful con­ clusion of The Campaign for Appalachian, the university's most comprehensive raising fund campaign.

Representatives from the Campus Resi­ dent Student Association and residents of the new apartment complex have submit­ ted their recommendations for the name of the new residence facility on Bodenheimer Drive. CRSA President Laura Free said students were glad to have a part in the permanent name selection of the complex. The only stipulation on the process was the name had to be realted to the moun­ tains and the surrounding region. Free said since no one donated money toward the construction of the buildings, the name did not have to honor a university constituent. "We were excited to be a part of it and to know we have some voice on campus," she said. The top seven names ranked by CRSA and the top seven ranked by the residents of the apartments were both sub­ mitted to Vice Chancellor for Student De­ velopment Gregory Blimling. Free said although the ranking differed slightly the top choice was the same. If Blimling approves of the names submitted Appalachian Heights may be the new name of Appalachian State University's newest residence hall. noted, "the conclusion of the campaign was a milestone at Appalachian and milestones have always been a time for reflections in my per­ sonal and professional life. The time has come for me to do something different." Under Strom's leadership, six major tasks were completed, including the develop­ ment of a comprehensive advancement division with broadbased, encompassing programming and opportunities for donors; a restructuring of the Appalachian State University Foundation; the successful completion of the campaign; revitalization of the printing program through the establishment of strategic partnership with the printing industry; the establishment of a strate­ gic partnership with the telecommunications in­ dustry resulting in distance learning for K-12 public education; and the creation of a vigor­ ous public relations program off the mountain. In a meeting with the University Ad­ vancement staff Strom noted, "Neither you nor I have climbed all of the mountains or made till the contributions we are capable of making. See Vice Page 2 Strom leaves his mark Tiffany Lohman Assistant News Editor Dr. James Strom, vice chancellor for university advance­ ment, will leave a long record of accomplishments at Appalachian State University. Upon his an­ nouncement of his resignation for August 1995, Strom had a chance to reflect upon some of his accom­ plishments. Under Strom's leader­ ship, the Appalachian Foundation was restructured. This included the organization of the foundation into committees. The committees were broken down into four cat­ egories: finance and gift planning, property management, advance­ ment and investments advisory. All four committees report to a 20member volunteer directory board that includes the chancellor, the vice chancellor for academic af­ fairs, the vice chancellor for busi­ ness affairs and the vice chancel­ lor for university advancement. Strom also facilitated the telecommunications program and the printing program. His accom­ plishments include facilitating a partnership between the graphic arts and imaging program and the Printing Industries of Caro­ lina Association. Strom also fa­ cilitated a partnership between the Impact N.C.: 21st century education program and public school teachers for grades K-12, as well as university professors.

'They usually like to be in the Student Union or mall area around lunch time," Daye said. According to Daye, three candidates have submitted appli­ cations to campaign on campus. Claude B. Smith Jr., the current district court judge, Dr. Charles Lamm, the current resident supe­ rior court judge and Bill Leavell, candidate for district court judge have gone through Daye's office for permission to campaign on campus. However, candidates who have been asked on to campus by the Young Republicans or College Democrats are not required to go through Daye's office. Regardless of how they get on campus, candidates are showing an increased interest in the student vote. "Appalachian is an impor­ tant part of the community," Lamm said. Lamm, who has held of­ fice for 15 years, said he has al­ ways campaigned on campus. "I like staying in touch with students and scaring up a few votes," he said. Charles B. Smith Jr., who is also an adjunct professor at Ap­ palachian State, said, The vote of the students is very valuable to local politicians." Bill Leavell, who is com­ peting with Smith for District Court Judge, is probably the most visible of local politicians on cam­ pus. He has been seen often with his two dogs, actively campaign­ ing for the student vote. The most valuable thing about the student's vote, is that students tend to have a more open mind," he said. The older genera­ tion often votes the partyline re­ gardless of the candidate. "Students usually vote on the issues rather than strict party doctrine," he said. Other candidates have advertised in The Appalachian to reach the student population. Stu­ dents can cast their votes at two on-campus polling places, Raley Hall and Farthing Auditorium, Thesday.

Both resolutions will go to the University of North Carolina Board of Governors for consider­ ation. Compiled by Ken Larking aged this behavior because of the inevitability of frustration. "You must appreciate the ability to have a stimulating, ex­ citing life," he said. Hartsen, who has been on the AP staff for 21 years, explained how the AP can cover more sto­ ries than most papers do. AP has bureaus in every country in the world and in every state in the United States. He explained that they are a co-op supplementary service- thousands of newspapers and broadcasters own and finance the AP In addition to central headquarters in New York City, a large bureau is also located in Washington D.C. Each state has the opportunity to send a journal­ ist to the D.C. Bureau. Hartsen explained how state involvement with the AP is a great investment because when stories come into the bureau, these representatives have the opportu­ nity to break down the big picture of a political or economic story and report on how it concerns their state. "Journalism is a reward­ ing, enriching, experience that re­ quires patience, yet offers the abil­ ity for personal achievement," Hartsen said. David Hyman Reporter Merrill L Hartsen, a man­ aging editor for the Associated Press Washington Bureau, ad­ dressed the challenges print jour­ nalists face in the current job mar­ ket and the availability of jobs in broadcast journalism when he spoke to students Monday. Hartsen stressed the im­ portance of experience. "You have to find a way to get your foot in the door," he said. That opening job or internship could be your most valuable key to having a suc­ cessful job." Hartsen said he sold ad­ vertising in order to get his first broadcasting job. Every ad he sold was allowed a certain allotment of time on the air. Now, Hartsen su­ pervises bureau news concerning defense, congress, economics, le­ gal affairs and the environment. He endorsed involvement with stu­ dent newspapers, college radio sta­ tions and other student publica­ tions as valuable experience for those seeking careers in journal­ ism.

Mike Cleaves Guest Colmnist Last night, I went to see Elliot Murphy perform at the Pub, and I encoun­ tered a mentality completely alien to my own. It wasn't Mr. Murphy; he came across as a brave minimalist folk rocker, a militant Bob Dylan in leather jeans. No, the mentality that completely astonished me was the one behind the policies of the Pub. I arrived at the show with my standard starving-student rations, three or four cans of Busch Light. I already knew better than to expect to be able to pur­ chase beer at the Pub. However, at the door, I was in­ formed that I would have to surrender my beer in order to enter, as this was a "dry event." You know how these things usu­ ally work: you go to an establishment called the Pub, where admission is free, and you sit at tables watching a musical performance, struggling to remain sober, straight-laced and serious throughout. Murphy was clearly as astonished by the irony of the situation as I was. Be­ tween songs, he joked about playing in this "town in western North Carolina where Daniel Boone didn't live...in a bar that serves ODoul's non-alcoholic brew..." Clearly, something was amiss. I thought it may just have been me, so I dropped by the library to do a little research. Here are a couple of defi­ nitions from "Webster's Third New Inter­ national Dictionary": pub: (1) chiefly Brit PUBLIC HOUSE (2) any of various establishments (as bars, taverns, cocktail lounges) where alcoholic beverages are sold and consumed. public house: 0) INN, HOSTELRY (2) chiefly Brit: a licensed saloon or bar. In the UK, pubs are so common people prefer them to road signs as navi­ gational aids ("Okay mate, you go down this road past the Ivy House, turn left at the Royalty, and go straight past Chester's..."). However, at Appalachian State University, things are slightly askew. We have a sort of reverse-pub from an anti-matter universe where it is against the rules to drink beer that you can't pur­ chase. Thus, "Pub" is something of a misnomer. If you were opening an eating establishment, would you name it The Hot Dog Stand if all you sold were pickles? Perhaps we should change the name to the Motel Banquet Facility or the Bingo Parlor (we can throw an extra "u" into "parlor" if we still want to sound British).

The weekend before fi­ nal exams is now to be our move-in date. Now, I realize that neither Brad Reid nor anyone else involved with hous­ ing operations is directly responsible for the added delay. My problem is with the whole lack of communication involved. First of all, we shouldn't have even been allowed to choose the new apartments as a residence this year. They knew from the beginning that it wouldn't be open when we arrived for fall semester. Secondly, the people involved with keeping us updated should have just been honest with us. Rather than just say, "We don't know the exact date, you will just move in when it is completed," they led us on and exaggerated its completion so that the university could collect as many housing fees as possible. And most of all, I can't understand why the change in the completion date was withheld from us as long as possible. An extra five-week de­ lay could not have taken them that much by surprise. Yet as of Tliesday, October 25, no formal notification had been sent to the future C-D residents. That letter that Mr. Reid promised was being sent should have been sent weeks ago! I was looking for boxes and planning my mov­ ing strategy already. This whole apartment situation upsets me, and if I had been told honestly that it might take this long, I would defi­ nitely be off campus now. I no longer think it is worth the wait. Dr. Donald B. Saunders Guest Columnist I have bought my last season ticket to Southern Conference football. Your new "no umbrella" policy is absurd. It certainly had not been publi­ cized when I bought my tickets as usual to the Appalachian State University Moun­ taineers home games, or I would not have gotten mine. Anyone who has ever at­ tended a game in Boone knows that the chance of rain — or snow — at a football game is high, and comes equipped with an umbrella. I cannot count how many games I have sat through like this in nearly 25 years teaching here. If an umbrella blocks yoyr view or drips on you,,you can always mpve over a bit. The die-hards " < - To the editor: I would like to take this opportunity to thank The Appalachian for the article concerning the throwing of objects out of dorm windows CJudicial Board sets precedent," Oct. 20). However, there are a few points I would like to clarify. For the first offense involving no injury or property damage, the Student Judicial Board recommended three months of specific probation and a $50 Grounds Service Fee. A first offense involving bodily harm or property damage would result in immediate suspension for one semester, a $50 Grounds Service Fee, and the student would no longer be able to reside upon campus when they returned to Appalachian. A second offense involving no injury or property damage would result in the student being removed immediately from the dorm, a $50 Grounds Service Fee, and eight months of specific probation. A second offense involving bodily injury or property damage would result in immediate and permanent expulsion. Administrative hearings are automatically set up for each student coming through the Office of Judicial Affairs with Mr. Lee McCaskey. This hearing allows the student to either accept responsibility for their actions or to contest either the charges or sanctions assigned by Mr. McCaskey. They are then referred to the Student Judicial Board for a hearing. The problem of throwing things out of dorm windows has become increasingly dangerous over the past couple of months. While many individuals do not intend any harm, the potential has become such that it must now be addressed. Any individual, group, or organization having concerns regarding this or any other matter are encouraged to write or call. • T Russell D. Yelton Chair, Student Judicial Board (and bald-heads, like me) who are will­ ing to come out and cheer for the Moun­ taineers should be allowed to protect themselves! But not this year. The conference policy makers have decided the ordinary fans must suffer. Who are these policy makers? College presidents, athletic direc­ tors, and assorted deep-pockets boosters who, of course, all sit on nice, soft seats in climate-controlled and covered comfort at the games anyway. Why did they make this policy? Who knows? It's "just policy." The ACC does it, so it must be right for the SC. Did they ask the fans? Are you kidding? Lawyers and police officials are no doubt somehow mixed up in this, too, doing what they love best, interfering with the people's liberties. Otherwise I really cannot imagine why after 71 years of ex­ istence the Southern Conference has de­ cided THIS year that umbrellas must be confiscated at the gate. Well, there are better ways to spend wet Saturday afternoons than sit­ ting in a sopping Kidd Brewer stadium without an umbrella just to satisfy the whims of a bunch of Southern Conference policy makers who, like Congress, get to make laws that don't apply to them. I re­ alize my presence will not be missed and that most fans will probably go along with this new policy like sheep, because they are basically an affable lot. But I hope at least a few other people will join me in writing to express their views on this stu­ pid rule. Is this a Mickey Mouse confer­ ence or what? Editor's Note: Mr. Saunders also sent a copy of this letter to Mr. Wright Waters, the commissioner of the Southern Con­ ference. ( n To the editor: I would like to express my gratitude to students for your support of the Mountaineer football team in their fabulous win over Marshall. The atmosphere you helped to create in Kidd Brewer Stadium that night was nothing short of magical. It was indeed as BIG TIME as you can getI The coaches and players have said they can not express how much seeing you in the stands (going crazy the way you were) on a rainy night, truly inspired the team to play its absolute best. Each one indicated that when the fans come out that way, the "Black Attack" is extremely hard to beat. They feel the team feeds off of the energy you create (and man, was there some kind of energy level that night) and gives the Apps a homefield advantage second to none. So just keep in mind how important you are to all ASU teams. They represent you and your school and you are a BIG part of their success. So come early, stay late, be loud and above all else, have fun. Doug Glenn ASU Class of '77 P.S. Those goal posts sure did look good in that duck pond! �The Appalachian Letters to the editor To the editor: I am writing this letter on behalf of two individuals who I have befriended while living in Boone. Although both are running for office, this is not a typical political endorsement. It is the fulfillment of my responsibility to the students at this university to communicate in good faith the commitment these two individuals have, both to our campus and our community. Glenn Hodges is running for re-election as Watauga County Clerk of Court Hodges is open-minded, straight forward and, along with his wife and children, attended ASU. Hodge's ties to ASU are important because students actually have someone at the courthouse who is able to identify and accommodate student needs. The clerk of court among other things, reviews speeding and noise ordinance tickets, decides on jury selection and oversees small claims court Irental disagreements). We are fortunate to have representation in these areas and if ever a student needs assistance from the clerk, it's reassuring to know that he/she will be provided for. I hope that other students will get to meet Hodges or someone like him while they are here in Boone. Rachel Hartley is hoping to be the first women ever elected to the Watauga County Commissioners, and without question, she deserves to be. Every so often I meet someone who is so eager to help and assist in making our community a better place that I just sit back and listen. Hartley unquestionably has the both the motivation and pragmatism necessary to see her ideas take root. Ideas about supporting the start-up of home-grown businesses and the need to balance development with preservation of our natural heritage are issues that must and will be addressed if Hartley is elected. Remember, women make up 51 percent of Watauga County, but 0 percent of Watauga County Commissioners. Finally, there are many appropriate words such as honesty or integrity that apply to Hartley and Hodges, but because these words are so common during election time, I believe both candidates deserve a different approach. Hodges and Hartley are sincere and genuine people who happen to be in a position to better the lives of citizens in our community. They are not rich and do not speak in fancy terms- they just really care about their work and the people it affects. I can only hope to get this degree of representation out of all my votes on Nov. 8th. SEE YOURSELF WITH 12 TO 24 NEW HAIRSTYLES WITHOUT RISK!

'The part that meant the most to me," said Pilkington, "was that people don't get to know the people behind a title, and I really tried to break that." Pilkington said that a title can be very "deceiving" and she wanted people to know that there Go ASU!!! i i was more to her than being Home­ coming Queen. "For a couple weeks after Home­ coming, people would come up to me and say 'Hey, aren't you...'," said Pilkington, "and I would say 'No, I'm Piper Pilkington, and be­ yond all that, I'm a person.m As the reigning queen, Pilkington appeared in several pa­ rades. "I think that every time I was in a parade it was raining," she said. Saturday, Pilkington will be pass­ ing on her crown to the new queen. Although she has enjoyed being queen, she is ready for some­ one else to share the experience. "I want someone else to be able to learn from it," said Pilkington. "I gladly give it to someone be­ cause it is a really big honor." "It was such an honor to be [in that position]," said Pilkington, "and to try to represent the people who put me there."

The Mountaineers only give up 126 yards rushing and 141 yards passing per contest. The cornerstone of the Appalachian defense has been sophomore Dexter Coakley who leads the team with 100 tackles. Linebacker William Peebles will also cause problems for the Liberty of­ fense- he looks to add to his total of 9.5 sacks this season. In the secondary, junior cornerback Matt Stevens and his team- leading six interceptions should make it harder for Liberty to establish their impressive aerial assault.

The Eagles flew out to an early lead with a touchdown at the 9:50 mark of the first quarter. Missing the extra point attempt, the score stood 6-0. Black Death fought back with sue minutes to go in the first quarter as ASU quarterback Tim Witherell connected a pass with tight end Travis Covick for a touch­ down. The extra point attempt WILMOTH N.C. House ASU Graduate - Boone Resident Endorsed by Education (NCAE) Endorsed by Business (NC Free) Endorsed by Sierra Club was blocked to make the score tied, 6-6, at the end of the quarter. Charlotte owned the sec­ ond quarter with one touchdown at the 5:50 mark and a gutsy twopoint conversion to put the Eagles ahead at the half, 14-6. Appalachian State came out of the locker room with a ven­ geance scoring two quick touch­ downs. With 8:30 to go in the third quarter, Tim Witherell passed to Carlos Oates for a 55 yard touchdown play and then con­ nected with Ant Hodnette on a two-point conversion to make the score 14-14. Tragedy struck for the Eagles on the following kick-off when ASU's Devon Carson recov­ ered a fumble and returned it for a touchdown. A failed two-point conversion left the score 20-14 in favor of ASU. The steam seemed to run out of ASU's engine however as the Eagles mobilized and went on a scoring run that left Black Death in the dust. Charlotte scored two more touchdowns, another twopoint conversion, an extra point and a safety in the fourth quarter to make the final score 31-20. The Black Death team now stands at 4-3 overall and they are first in their club league with a 3-0 record. Their next game will be against the Western Carolina club football team on Nov. 6 at 2 p.m. in Cullowhee, N.C. Wimper Continued from page 18 te-Elect s§ Black Death plagued by Eagle offense game. The game went to the half with the Apps trailing by one. 'The cold caused us to get off to a slow start and Radford took advantage of that. After the first few minutes we settled down," Coach Cathy Burleson said. The second half was played with both teams playing good solid defense. Krisle Brislie scored Radford's final goal of the game with one minute left in the game. Burleson did not attribute the low offensive output on the part of both teams to the cold. "That is just the nature of the game," Burleson said. Junior Ingrid Stamberg came up with 11 saves in the con­ test compared to the six by her counterpart from Radford. The match against Radford was the last regular sea­ son game for the Mountaineers' solitary senior Rachael Megee, who was injured in the match.

For the seniors on the team, this month is the result of at least eight years of training.

'The Show' of course refers to nation­ als; the premier goal of the ASU this year. "The tradition is build­ ing," Coach Fereshetian said of defending the SC title. "We've re­ ally proven that we're more than a five person team. We have the possibility now of solidifying or moving up our national ranking, and more importantly, qualifying for nationals."

What was supposed to take five to ten seconds was taking 30 to 40 sec­ onds and students would hang up. Jeff Williams, director of computer manage­ ment services, said the volume of students hanging up caused a rift in the system and slowed down the process even more. "It causes the line to hang for a while and takes a while to recycle," Will­ iams said. "It hangs up and causes a cas­ cading problem." Manya Brachear News Editor Appalachian State University's telephone registration system was up and down throughout its first day of opera­ tion Monday. "We anticipated problems on the first day. We knew we'd run into things," Registrar Brooks McLeod said. Students calling to register for classes Monday received the greeting and Williams said about half a dozen people worked on trying to isolate the electronic glitch that led to the problem. McLeod said the registration sys­ tem is separated into two portions to al­ low repairs to be made on one portion while students call and register on the other. However, McLeod said both por­ tions of the system had been shut down for repairs twice Monday before press time.

Aeevtev r*J •RfENWAY » lJU JUU Campaign raises hopes, millions Tiffany Lohman Assistant News Editor The Campaign for Appalachian fund-raising efforts have exceeded their goal by $6 million. Appalachian State University announced Thursday the Cam­ paign for Appalachian has exceeded its $21 million goal by $6 million. Members of the Campaign's steering committee called the campaign to a close at Broyhill Inn and Conference Center with closing comments by campaign chairman Don Beavers and Chancellor Francis T. Borkowski. The committee announced meet­ ing its original goal in May of last year. The fund-raising campaign was started by former Chancellor John Thomas due to a rise in the university's popularity with stu­ dents and an increase in the university's national recognition. The goal set by Tho­ mas was to raise $21 million over a pe­ riod of five years. The first two years of the cam­ paign marked its Quiet Phase, during which the Chancellor and development office focused on recruitment of the steer­ ing committee and solicitation of leader­ ship and institutional family gifts. One hundred percent of the Trustee/Foundation Board participated in the Campaign, while faculty and staff con­ tributed $600,000. Donations were also given by fac­ ulty, alumni, students, parents, corporate and business support, and staff. , On Oct. 23, 1992 the Campaign announced it already had a commitment of $14 million and reached out to North Carolina and the surrounding region. The money will be used in areas "ditor-in-Chief Professorships & Faculty Development (3 mil) Student Scholarship & Financial Aid (2 mil) University & Program Endowment (2.3 mil) An Appalachian Summer Ongoing and current goals (10 mil) Computings Alumni Center (.6 mil) Vicki Roman Photo Editor 262-3104 262-6149 Total of $21,000,000 (1.1 mil) Telecommunications (2 mil) Something smelled 'Phishy' 262-6233 ^^awn McGuire, Proposal page 2 Summary of Campaign Objectives see Campaign page 3 Office Hours: Monday-Friday 8-5 ports & ditorials In a vote of 4-1, the Boone Town Council approved a portion of the alter­ native transportation plan Thursday, but not its funding.

More than 600 out of the 900 stu­ dents scheduled for the day had already registered for classes by 2 p.m., he said. "The system is operating correctly. Once they get in and sign in, we're getting a success rate." To make up for the registration opportunities lost when the system was shut down, the open period during 3-6 p.m. was extended to 8 p.m. McLeod said the telephone lines had not been completely full all day even when only 24 lines were open. Sara Legatski, Bill Pseger, and Steve Burgess enjoy the mood, (photo by Jen LongI The Phish musical performance Wednesday proved to be more than just music and good clean fun. On the con­ trary, it was an Appalachian State Univer­ sity first in more ways than one. Chuck Johnson, chair of Appalachian Popular Programming Society Concerts committee, said everything went smoothly except for the fact at least 200 people who wanted to get in didn't have tickets. "At one point during the show a large group of people outside the gym began chanting and then, all at once, stampeded in," Johnson said. According to Cpt. Larry Foster of University Police, many were trampled but no injuries were reported. Other fans opted to climb a 15-foot wall outside Varsity Gym in order to sneak in through a window. An estimated 50 extra people got into the show, Johnson said. Johnson also said the nonsmoking policy could not be enforced since every­ one on duty from APPS was busy trying to contain the crowd. "There just weren't enough uniformed officers there," he said. Capt. Foster said there were five of­ ficers inside the gym and only two on pa­ trol outside. Hardly enough to control a crowd that size, Johnson said. Security asked incoming concertgoers to empty the contents of their pocket and obtained and confiscated illegal sub­ stances. "Because officers were needed at the scene of the performance, only two arrests were made," Foster said. An intoxicated underage Appalachian student was put in jail for 24-hour lock up and charged by the university with an alcohol violation. A nonstudent was arrested for the pos­ session of LSD, marijuana, and drug para­ phernalia. His name was not released by see ____ Phish pane 3 262-2157. Editorial office 262-3104 & 262-6233.

Waco Fallout ' The Bureau of Alcohol, Tobacco and F irearms fired agents Charles Sarabyn and Phillip Chojnacki for their role in the Waco massacre.

Information Search Turns Toward Home The nationwide search for the two children snatched in the Union, S.C. caijacking turned back to the small textile town Monday. According to Howard Wells, Union County Sheriff, "There is a possibility they could be in Union." As the investigation re­ turns to the boys' hometown the residents of Union are getting hos­ tile. Most are angered over the suspicions cast on the mother of the two boys, Susan Smith. One resident, Don Davis said, "It's bad enough they're in this kind of shock, but then to have that kind of thing said, it's just awful." WILSON hours.

"We try to work closely together," said Jim Hastings, the chairman of the Watauga County Republican Party. "We depend on (the Young Republicans) for volunteer help." Hastings explained that the students assist with the campaign grunt work such as putting up signs and preparing mailings. A similar relationship exists between the College Democrats and the county's Demo­ cratic party. The county's organization helps the students with funding, and the stu­ dents volunteer to work at the county's campaign headquarters. "We're doing real well together," said Loretta Clawson, the chairperson of the Wa­ tauga County Democratic Party. "The (college students) seem to be real responsive and energetic." As the campaign season nears its climax, both the College Democrats and Young Republicans are sure to intensify their efforts to help get their party's candidates elected. Only after the polling places have closed on election day and the winners have been announced will the clubs realize just how well their efforts have been rewarded.

(photo by Jen Long) School of an entirety different sort was in session last Wednesday night when Phish visited Appalachian's Broome Kirk Gym for a sold-out show that surpassed many people's expectations and turned this campus into a meeting ground of music and academics. The pre-show scene on Sanford Mall was itself an educational one, contrasting the rhythmic lure of drums and gyrating sle against a background of school hidings (in which classes were still be­ held). Anticipation mounted as twilight sd to nightfall and the cold air drew ; into the warmth of the gym, but cozy warmth turned into stifling heat soon af­ ter Phish began their first set and the crowd erupted into celebration. The audience was especially elated dur­ ing Phish's performance of "Rim Like an Antelope.' Startling laser-lights and psychedelic backdrop projections added to the spec­ tacle. Other highlights of the hour-long set were performances of "Scent of a Mule" and "Sury Greenberg." The second set included performances of "You Enjoy Myself" and "David Bowie," from Junta, and "Reba," from Lawn Boy. As part of their encore, Phish sang an acappella rendition of "Amazing Grace" and performed acoustic northern bluegrass music. Academia might never be the same af­ ter this collision of intellect and melody. The performance reflected Phish at their best, achieving a perfect lyrical and musi­ cal balance. The only unhappy faces to be seen were those who were unable to buy a ticket, or those who were driven out of the gym by oppressive heat and need for fresh air and then could not re-enter (And maybe those professors who were trying to conduct classes in spite of the spectacle outside). According to University Security, there were no major complications in spite of the sizable crowd. A couple of arrests were made for public drunkenness and possession of controlled substances, but the biggest problem was fans trying to enter the venue without tickets. Officers were stationed near the gym's windows and doors, but some were able to run past security and rush the stage. It's easy to get tired of the same old thing every weekend here. After all, there isn't much to do except contend with the leaflookers. For a change of pace I took a trip...back in time. In less than two hours, you can take a trip back to the Renaissance days. The first annual Carolina Renaissance Festival is go­ ing on every weekend through November 6. The festival is located on Poplar Tent Road off of I-77 between Davidson and Concord. It's an easy trip —just take exit 25 off of 77, and you'll be on Highway 73, which is Concord Road. You'll start seeing signs and Poplar Tent Road will be on your right. It's all a little disconcerting at first. You walk through a gateway surrounded by colorful pennants. Once inside, everyone speaks in Olde English and you feel a bit out of place because you don't know how to respond. The ladies are traipsing around in long full skirts with flowers and ribbons in their hair. As a few of them walked by you could hear the bells around their ankles jingling. The men were a combina­ tion of swaggering swordsmen and jovial peasants in their leggings and knee boots. There's even a guy walking on stilts. His name was Daddy Long Legs. He's great for giving directions and he's easy to find. Everyone is very congenial there and seemed to enjoy their jobs tremendously. Hey, who wouldn't like to get paid to heckle people? Believe me, in this carni­ val type atmosphere it happens a lot, es­ pecially at the stage shows. There are five stages at the fair with shows approximately every half hour. There's a great variety to choose from. The shows feature duelists, sword swallowers, dancing gypsies, instrumental as well as vocal music, and a woman who sings rather bawdy songs. We wandered through the village and happened to stumble upon some very good acts. The first one we saw was the sword swallower, Thorn Sellectomy. He was amazing. He could swallow half of a sword then let go of it and hold it with only his throat muscles. He even had a little boy help prove it was all real by let­ ting him pull the sword out. His best act was when he swallowed one of those 36inch balloons that you can make balloon animals with. If you go to the festival, don't miss Don Juan and Miguel, the comic duelists. I laughed so hard during their show that I had tears running down my face. The char­ acter Don Juan was the traditional Span­ ish lover, gallant fighter, and witty wordster. Miguel was his opposite, a little heavyset, often spoke with a high pitched voice, and liked the whip. They are defi­ nitely an act you don't want to miss. One of the highlights of each day are the live jousts. During these matches of skill, knights in armor charge at targets and each other on horseback with only a shield to protect them from the sharp lances. One is a joust of skill, so the knights can show off their prowess, another is a exhi­ bition to please the crowds, and final joust is to the death, or as close as it can get. The jousting arena is at the back of the village so you have to look for it and make sure you get there in time to get a good seat. Bring your appetite with you too, be­ cause the variety of food is just too much to turn down. They have great soups and stews served in bowls made from hollowed out loaves of bread, whole smoked legs of turkey that make your mouth water, dragon wings which looked mighty warm and beer and ale to wash it all down with. To finish off your renaissance meal, try some warm blackberry cobbler, cheese­ cake on a stick, or an Italian ice. They took half of an orange rind and filled it with orange ice, rounding it out to look like a real orange. A few brave people dressed the part so they might blend in more. They had on ruffled shirts, vests, leggings, or long full skirts. Don't worry if you can't dress up though. They have vendors to sell you hair garlands, hats and swords. They were even weaving flowers into intricate braids on some ladies' heads. Jewelry was a big thing at the festival, too. The Renaissance Festival is open from 10 a.m. to dusk and you really need to plan on spending several hours there. It's a great escape from Boone, and well worth the trip. �Did i not /^NTIOM THAT jTFhe heck is that at the or?

Stephen Hensley Reporter The Appalachian football team had a lot to think about last week after beating top-ranked Marshall and moving up the polls to number 15 in Division I-AA. It would have been easy to overlook UTChattanooga and their less than stunning 2-5 record. They may have done just that as the Mocs jumped to a 16-7 halftime lead over the Apps before Jerry Moore rallied his troops to a 30-16 victory. After the opening kickoff, the Moun­ taineer defense held UT-Chattanooga and forced a punt that gave Scott Satterfield and his offensive unit good field position at the Moccasin 40 yard line. Appalachian took little time to get on the scoreboard as Chip Hooks took it down the left side from 15 yards out to take a quick 7-0 lead in the first quarter. The lead would be short-lived as the Mocs were able to freely gain yardage against the Mountaineer defense. UTChattanooga would score on four of their next five possessions as the Mocs went to the locker room with a 16-7 advantage. At the half, the Mountaineers had only gained 105 yards compared to UT-C's 284. The Moccasins controlled the ball for 20:52 of the first 30 minutes of play and had a nine point lead on their home field. Appalachian had to come up with an an­ swer quickly to keep their share of the Southern Conference lead. At this crucial juncture in the game, the Mountaineers kept their heads to­ gether and drove 64 yards on the open­ ing possession of the third quarter to make Ro Fe on eni thr me mc lin he th< W gc de nc; ui tr ai f; s a App hockey finally wins Akram Barghothi a two-yard jaunt by Damon Scott.

T Volleyball chalks up two more David Kittrell Sports Editor The volleyball team traveled to Greenville, S.C. this past Friday to meet the Paladins of Furman University. Furman proved not to be much of a chal­ lenge as ASU won decisively in three straight games. The Mountaineers bounced back with a vengeance after losing to the Uni­ versity of North Carolina last Tuesday, their first loss since Sept. 10, crushing the Paladins 15-7,15-12,15-13. Sheri Leverette and Miriam Sealy led the way for the Mountaineers, both accumulating nine kills. Leverette also had six digs and assisted two blocks. Sealy had three digs and one service ace. Amy Kolomechuk had eight kills and eight digs while Heidi McElhaney had eight kills and six digs. The Mountaineers extended their road trip to Statesboro, Ga. where they met Georgia Southern on Sunday.

The squad finished a disappointing 13th in a field of 18. David Goodman, a freshman from Salisbury, N.C. led the way for the Moun­ taineers, firing rounds of 77 and 75. This marked the first time in Goodman's ca­ reer that he had the low score for the Mountaineers. Goodman attributed his good play to hitting the ball well — except for putting, which hurt his chance to finish higher overall. Despite Goodman's performance, he was disappointed in his team's low overall performance. "Everyone could have improved, including me," Goodman said.

The goal posts were unthreatened, but for the 21 members of the ASU field hockey team the satisfaction was the same. After losing their first 14 games, the last nine of which were on the road, the Appalachian women's field hockey team came home to play Catawba. The match was to be the first at Kidd Brewer since Appalachian hosted and lost to Wake Forest on Sept. 13. The Lady Mountain­ eers dropped Catawba, 3-0. The Mountaineers dominated the game, outshooting Catawba, 30-4. In fact, the only stat the Mountaineers did not lead was in goalkeeper saves.

The approximate cost of the two new posts is estimated to be around $4,000 according to Athletic Director Roachel Laney.

Heather Tempelton struck first for the Mountaineers, scoring I with 17:13 in the first half. Kris Leskowitz pitched in, I scoring at the 6:28 mark in the first i half. The game went to the half I with the Apps up 2-0. Jenn Broderick pitched in j for the Mountaineers, tacking on Appalachian's final goal of the con­ test with six minutes left. "We played well as a | team," said Cathy Burleson, ASU field hockey coach. "We had a good passing game." "We have the talent to win the tournament and that's our goal." Head Coach Cathy Burleson In addition to the Catawba game being the first win for the squad, it was the first time they managed more than two goals. Also, the App defense, which has only held one opponent under three goals, preserved the shutout in the match. This win was critical for the psyche of the young team, who I got leadership from their lone se­ nior, Rachel Megee. "We got a good perfor­ mance for Rachel," said Burleson. "She had a lot of good scoring op| portunities." The Mountaineers look to add to their momentum going into the Deep South Tournament in their final regular season game of the season. The 1-14 record is not indicative of the way the team plays and their talent level. "We have the talent to win the tournament and that's our goal," said Burleson. "We are go­ ing to take it one game at a time and then take it from there."
