Voting booths will be set up today in the dining halls and Samuelson Union Building with candidate pamphlets available to students. Approximately 60 students gath­ ered Tuesday to hear the candi­ dates give campaign speeches in the SUB pit. Presidential candidate Ryan Golze, a junior business adminis­ tration major, stressed the impor­ tance of getting out and talking to people. "We need to utilize the SUB pit for forums," Golze said. "It's im­ portant to hear what's on the stu­ dents' minds." Golze's opponent, Greg Carlson, a senior accounting major, said a lot of friction exists between uni­ versity administration and students. Carlson also said he wants to fin­ ish creating a student handbook, work to keep tuition increases un­ der control and help other students. "If you truly love yourself, you can branch yourself out to help other students," Carlson said. "If someone tries to bring you down, you can look at them and wonder how you can help them." Student Kip Andersen asked Carlson why the BOD continues to support the fight for lower tuition when past efforts have been unsuc­ cessful. Carlson said, "I don't think we should just lay around apathetically while our tuition continues to rise." S hawn Christie, candidate for vice president for Political Affairs, said his two years of experience on the BOD qualifies him for a third term. He also said the campus shuttle service should be converted into a service for students who don' t want to drink and drive, an idea sug­ gested by Matt Chambers, a candi­ date for vice president for Aca­ demic Affairs. x A student asked Christie about allegations he knowingly presented false testimony to the State Legis­ lature during its 1993 session. The student asked if the incident would compromise Christie's future ef­ forts in Olympia. "It's a whole new legislative ses­ sion next year," Christie said. "It's a very complicated process and you need someone who understands it. "I don't think it (the allegations) will underminemy standing or abil­ ity,"Christie said.

Candidates for vice president for See BOD/page 4 University faculty testify on workload to HEC Board by Staci A. West News editor Testimony before the Higher Education Coordinating Board last week confirmed national studies indicating college profes­ sors work up to 55 hours each week. Faculty representatives from Eastern Wash- ington University, Western Washington University and Central presented informa­ tion to the HEC Board explaining their typi­ cal work week, which includes time spent in the classroom, grading assignments, con­ ducting research and advising students. The 1993 State Legislature requested the HEC Board study the workload of university faculty. Donald W. Cummings, English professor and former dean of the College of Letters, Arts, and Sciences, said he works approxi­ mately 50 to 55 hours per week. He spends 10 to 12 hours in office confer­ ences with students, another 10 to 12 hours preparing for class lectures and grading as­ signments, and 12 hours teaching. Being a member of two committees and chair of another committee takes up about eight hours a week, he said. Cummings also spends a few hours doing scholarly work, such as reading, and long- range class preparation, he said. The faculty and university are bound in a social contract, Cummings said, where fac­ ulty agree to act like a university and the state agrees to let faculty act like a university. Under this contract, the university must provide a place for "teachers to teach and students to learn and scholars to do their scholarship," Cummings said. William Smith, an associate professor and director of the English composition program at Eastern, testified to the HEC Board that although most faculty spend about 55 hours a week at work, .iew faculty work up to 70 hours a week. The new faculty serve on committees and put extra effort into building a reputation so they can get tenure, Smith said. Smith said he would like to have more contact with his students, but does not have the time. When asked by the HEC Board how he could have more time, Smith said the amount of paperwoik he does is staggering. Tenure applications must go through a pro­ cess of peer evaluation, which Smith said can take up a lot of time. Jeffrey Corkill, a chemistry professor at Western, told the HEC Board faculty workloads can't be measured by the hours spent in the classroom. He said legislators should visit college campuses and follow faculty around for a day to see how time is spent.

Director resigns after nearly 25 years at Central * by Greg Aldaya Copy editor Jim Holiister Jim Holiister, director of Housing Sendees, submitted his resignation April 1 after nearly 25 years work­ ing at Central. Holiister said he has "been here long enough and it's time to do something else." His resignation will take effect June 30. ^ He is unsure of what he will do after Central and said he is "still looking at a bunch of options." As director, Holiister oversees residence hall staff, Auxiliary Ser­ vices Maintenance and the housing office personnel. He has served on a number of committees, task forces and as Resi­ dence Hall Council adviser. He saidohe wants students to re­ member him as "an honest man, listener and as a person who would like to see them succeed." Holiister grew up in South Da­ kota but came to Ellensburg after teaching high school English in Washington and Montana. He en­ listed in the Army in 1957. He received his bachelor's degree in education and English at Pacific Lutheran University in 1963 and his master's of education in school counseling at Central in 1968. At Central he was a graduate as­ sistant at the dean of men's and dean of students' offices. Holiister became involved with the residence hall system and was offered the position of director. "Any environment is going to be reflective of society—and as soci­ ety changes, of course the campus environment will change," Holiister said. "Many, if not most, of the changes are initiated by students—students should have a major influence and that's the way it has been, and the way I think it will continue to be. "What I will enjoy most is the many really good people I have known here and had the opportu­ nity to work with—and a great majority of them have been stu­ dents," he said. "I think I've been successful in building and maintaining positive relationships with students. "A great emphasis should be on trying to work with students—on building and working on the (resi­ dence hall) environment."
Page 2 Thursday, April 28,1994 The Observer * L f An Inside Profile on BOD candidates Last in a 3-part series BOD election about communication, people by Staci A. West News editor People, and therefore students, are most important in whatever a person does, said Greg Carlson, a candidate for Board of Di­ rectors president "I walk my talk, stand my ground, and most important to me is helping people,*' Carlson said. As BOD president, Carlson would help students in three ways. They are: • Involve as many students as possible in BOD activities. • Upgrade the Nicholson Pavilion exercise facilities. • Bring the Big Brother/Big Sister program to campus. Even though communication is the bottom line, not enough students get involved, he said. He has plans to produce a student hand­ book detailing information about campus and community life. Carlson said the university should provide everything a student needs on campus. Be­ cause of this responsibility, the pavilion ex­ ercise facility should be improved, he said. He said he wants to raise about $8,500 for upgrades from offices on campus, such as Student Activities. "I believe with a sound body, a sound mind, and significant sleep, you feel good about yourself and you'll learn more," Carlson said. As a volunteer with the local Big Brother program, Carlson would like to link students and local children together. "I think you need to take ideas and just run with them," he said. by Tim Yeadon Staff reporter Greg Carlson Vital Statistics Name: Greg Carlson Age: 22 Major: accounting Year in school: senior Hometown: Kirkland, Wash. "I'm willing to try anything," he said. "It doesn't cost anything to think or question." He said he is highly committed and disci­ plined, which would help as BOD president He has been involved with the campus Marketing Club, The Brotherhood of Under­ graduate Drinking Society and with Kittitas County community activities. "At first glance, I'm sometimes pre-judged as a dumb jock, but I'm an accounting major with a very open mind," Carlson said. "Across the board, you can't judge a book by its cover." This election is about communication, said Ryan Golze, a candidate for Board of Direc­ tors president. "The BOD is a resource for the students to use, and a good portion of Central doesn't know who is on the BOD," Golze said. "Unless something big hits the front page of The Observer, (students) just do their own thing." Golze said he has wanted to run for office since he was a freshman and chose to run for president because in that position he can make the most difference. Golze said he has three agenda items he would pursue if elected to office. They are: • Increase communication from the BOD to the students and the administration. • Increase teamwork on the BOD. • Increase services to students. Through increased meetings with univer­ sity administration, a student newsletter and meetings with students, Golze would ad­ dress the communication problem he per­ ceives as a hindrance to the BOD. Golze said more can be accomplished by teamwork than by working alone, but that teamwork must first be taught He proposes the implementation of seminars teaching better communication skills and the ability to work in a team environment. Services to students can be increased by implementing an evening campus shuttle program and improving thecurrentacademic advising system, he said. "The shuttle service could be better utilized during the evening when people have night .dosses or are studying late at the Library and Ryan Golze Vital Statistics Name: Ryan Golze Age: 21 Major: business administration Year in school: junior Hometown: Vancouver. Wash. have to walk home alone in the dark," he said. The academic advising system is lacking and needs improvement, he said. He said faculty needs to be better informed regarding student advising. "We all know students who had to stay an extra quarter or two because of poor plan­ ning or inaccurate information given to them," Golze said. He is currently president of Alpha Kappa Psi, has served on the Senate of Student Organizations, and served as a representa­ tive to Residence Haill Council for one year. by Staci A. West News editor Hard work is the key to success in life, said Andy Lwanga, a candidate for vice president for Equity and Community Service. Lwanga, who was active in high school student government, said he wants to con­ tinue his involvement by working on the Board of Directors. As vice president, Lwanga would create activities involving the campus and commu­ nity. "If you don't give anything back to the community, then why even live there?" he said. Lwanga has three areas he would concen­ trate his energies on. They are: • Work with community children. • Create activities on campus that relate to the community. • Organize the students and clubs to achieve a single goal. His first two agenda items are related, he said. By creating activities such as benefit concerts or basketball tournaments, children from the community can participate. Education majors could contribute time to working with children at local schools, he said. He would also like to have a campus-wide multicultural fair and festival with booths, activities and fun games where adults, stu­ dents and children could enjoy themselves, he said. He wants to get students involved with these activities, he said, because people support things they help create. "If you get people creating it and let them enjoy what they're doing, then success will mmmm m by Tim Yeadon Staff reporter Andy Lwanga Vital Statistics Name: Andy Lwanga Age: 20 Major: elementary and special education Year in school: sophomore Hometown: Edmonds, Wash. come," he said. "I guarantee you'll see it happen." He said he would find the needs of clubs and organizations, then integrate that with what the school and community need. Lwanga served as Associated Student Body president of his high school and also as captain of the football and basketball teams. He red-shirted this year on Central's football team. "You really have to work hard to achieve success," Lwanga said. Central needs to take action to bridge the gap between college students and the com­ munity, said Rhonda Corrick, candidate for vice president for Equity and Community Service. "Students go in town and use city facilities and shop in the stores," Corrick said. "But there is still a gap between the university and the community that needs to be addressed." Corrick feels students have a lot to offer to the community, and in return, the commu­ nity has much to teach college students. She has three main agenda items. They are: •Establish a bond between the community and university students. •Set up and encourage an independent-study program allowing students to do volunteer work out in the community for college credit •Strengthen the role of the board of equity regarding relations between clubs and the administration. Corrick would like to organize community service days where the campus community could reach out to the Ellensburg community and lend a hand. "Clean the park day, for example," she said. "I'm into volunteering. I would like to set up a referral service for Central where students could find out where help is needed around town." In turn, students could receive independent study credit for their volunteer time, she said. Corrick would also like to see more barbe­ cues offered jointly by Central and the city of Ellensburg that would bring everybody tp- Rhonda Corrick Vital Statistics Name: Rhonda Corrick Age: 42 Major, political science Year in school: senior Hometown: Wenatchee, Wash. gether. At age 42, Corrick is a non-traditional stu­ dent who returned to college a year ago foUowing a 20 year layoff. "I decided to go back (to college) and get my degree once and for all," she said. "It was a piece of unfinished business." She is currently club senator for Model United Nations, president of the McNair Scholars Club, and volunteers on the Wash­ ington Student Lobby and the Washington Intercollegiate Student Legislature. m- Candidates focus on hard work, community service
The Observer __ Candidate endorses four year graduation by Staci A. West News editor Students should be able to gradu­ ate from Central within four years, said Matt Chambers, who is run­ ning unopposed for vice president for Academic Affairs. Chambers said he wants to join student government so he can help implement policies and programs to help ensure graduation within four years. "lite shortest amount of time you're here, the better off you are," he said. To guarantee graduating on time, Chambers said he has three areas he wants to work on with the Board of Directors. They are: • increase financial aid. • improve advising programs. • ease the race for classes during registration. By increasing financial aid, Chamberssaidmorestudentswould be eligible for help, which would lessen thenumber of students work­ ing part- or full-time. Because students are taking smaller class loads or quitting school for a quarter to work, they take longer to graduate, he said. But he said increasing financial aid shouldn't mean other areas of the university need to be cut. Second, the advising programs need to be improved because many advisers push students down the wrong path or are not aware of all the opportunities available, Cham­ bers said. In terms of scheduling, he said graduating seniors should have first priority in registration, rather than freshmen. "It's extremely necessary because we need the seniors to get out of here "he said. Chambers said he would love to Thursday, April28,1994 Page 3 Internal 'ray of hope' pulls woman through suffering of eating disorder &•* .V Matt Chambers Vital Statistics Name: Matt Chambers Age: 21 Major, industrial distribution Year in school: senior Hometown: Vancouver, Wash. seeaTaco Bell putin the Samuelson Union Building. "This is the students' building, and they should be able to come in and hang out," he said "They should be No. 1 in here." He has no political experience, but being a student here for four years qualifies him for this posi­ tion, he said. "I know the process from being around," Chambers said. 'To get changes, you have to not be a friend and bring in a new point of view." He said students may be apathetic, but only because "they're pissed off at the system," and feel that what they say means nothing. That is why, he said, students need a representative who is vocal. "It feels good to know that you're helping students," Chambers said.

Schuirman Editor-in-chief Imagine existing for years eating only a bag of Cheetos every day. For Donna, a Central graduate student studying nutrition, this ex­ istence was a reality. Donna (her name has been changed in the interest of privacy) suffered from anorexia nervosa for eight years. She also developed bulimia soon after becoming anorexic. She had a predisposition toward eating disorders, she said. Although she doesn't blame her husband for her disorder, his behavior was un­ usual. "He became very jealous," she said. "He quit his job so he could drive me to work every day, check on me once throughout the day to make sure I was there, and then come back and pick me up at night. I turned all my hurt into obsessing over weight." "I would eat a bag of Cheetos every day, and anything more than that was thrown up," she said. "I was consumed with obsessive-compul­ sive thoughts." Donna grew up with a family that did not com­ municate. She became anorexic when she was 19. "I have no memories of my life until about age 10," she said. "My parents never asked us (she and her two siblings) how we were. There is a part of my life that I've blocked out because it's too painful." High school was a pleasant time for Donna. "I was in honor society, I had a lot of friends, I was looked upon as a leader, and I never thought about weight," she said. "I weighed 123 forever." When she was 18, Donna got married. "Though I really did love him, it was a way to escape from my fam­ ily," she said. After she married, her weight in­ creased to 140 pounds. "It was cooking three meals a day that did it," she said. "My husband told me I was fat, which I wasn't, "People tend to read things about eating disorder people and think, 'Oh, she's weird or gross or there's something wrong with her' ... I don't know how to make them understand." —Donna Donna knew she had to get out of the relationship, even though she loved her husband. She eventually left him. "I do not know where I got the strength," she said. "The only reason I am here today is I've always had this ray of hope inside me that I would get better." Donna attributes her eating disor­ ders to her lack of coping mecha­ nisms. She used the eating disorder to avoid dealing with problems in her "chaotic" family life. "I never learned how to figure out what I wanted," she said. "Obsessing over weight made me feel very powerful and gave me a focus," Donna said. In an effort to avoid thinking about food, she soon developed an alco- but I started dieting and I justnever hoi problem. stopped." "I would use alcohol as a way not to have to think about food, and I was also withdrawn and lonely, so it was a way for me to be social," she said. "I did that for four years, and then I developed alcoholic pancreatitis it's rare for someone to develop that so soon." Donna believes her tendency to­ ward complications with alcohol are inherited from her father, who died at the age of 41. Her medical problems forced Donna to quit drinking, which she said "took away my cop­ ing mechanism." "I became very de­ pressed and suicidal," she said. "I had no social con­ tact I was living in a very small community,and ev­ eryone went to the bars." Donna's weight dropped to 98 pounds. The normal weight range for her 5 foot 7 inch height is 127- 140 pounds. "I was working for the state in Olympia, and would go to work and just focus on work for eight hours," she said. "I would put so much energy into working I wouldn't have to think about food or my life. It felt like nothing was wrong it was easy to justify." Donna worked hard and was re­ warded with promotions at work, but her co-workers did not realize she had an eating disorder. 'They could see I was thin, but no one ever said anything." When Donna quit drinking, the walls began closing in on her, she said. "I became very suicidal and I just basically hit bottom," Donna said. "I knew I had to get treatment or die. "People did try to help me before that," Donna said. See DONNA/page 4 DR. MYRON UNDER DR. SANDY LINDER 962-2570 Under Chiropractic Center 1011 N.

The opinions here do not necessarily reflect those of the university. Unsigned editorials and cartoons represent the opinions of a majority of The Observer editorial board. And The Observer picks... In keeping with tradition, The Observer editorial board has again chosen to endorse candidates for the Associated Students of Central Board of Directors general election. Candidates receiving endorsements for today's election have been deemed particularly qualified for their respective positions by a majority of editorial board members. The board acknowledges the efforts of each and every candidate and admires their initiative to become involved in the process of student government. For the position of BOD president, the Observer endorses Ryan Golze. Golze has been actively involved on campus in his three years at Central and demonstrates loyalty to the school and its students. Further, his professionalism shows he takes this office seriously. For the position of BOD executive vice president, the Observer does not endorse either candidate. Though Shannon Cutler has one year of experience in this position, we feel she has not been an effective executive vice president. Write-in candidate Shawn Bloom has many new ideas, however, his lack of dedication, as demonstrated by his reason for running for office, makes him unworthy of endorsement For the position of vice president for Equity and Community Service, the Observer endorses Andy Lwanga. Lwanga has demon­ strated he is a hard worker with a concrete plan to involve students in community service activities. Students would do well to put his energy and sincerity to work for them. For the position of vice president for Political Affairs, the Ob­ server does not endorse either candidate. Though Shawn Christie would bring considerable experience to this position, we feel he lacks the credibility necessary to accom­ plish students' goals in Olympia. Similarly, Nick Lane currently lacks the experience required to provide students with adequate representation. For the position of vice president for Student Life and Facilities, the Observer endorses Timi Marie Reid. Reid has shown she has many good ideas and brings a multitude of experience and involve­ ment with the residence hall system to this position. For the positions of vice president for Organizations and vice president for Academic Affairs, the Observer does not make any endorsements because the candidates for these positions, Brian Dolman and Matt Chambers, respectively, are running unopposed.

MARftlSotl LETTERS Student writes home during cold Russian winter Note: Thefollowing letter was writ­ ten Feb. 18, 1994, by a student doing an exchange in St. Peters­ burg, Russia. To the Editor: The weather got warm—between 8 degrees Fahrenheit and 23 de­ grees Fahrenheit most of the time— after a two-week cold snap during which temperatures were between minus 30 F and 10 F. In two days the temperature fell from 32 F to minus 5 F. Then it fell a little more. Then I got sick. Then it fell a little more. Istayedathome,inbedorin front of the stove, for five days. Insula­ tion technology was never a Soviet priority. We had hot water, but I didn't shower for those five days because the radiator doesn't woik in the bathroom. The radiators barely get warm in the rooms where they do work. I finally managed with a small electric heater. But wait! There's more! After walking two miles across wind and ice—it's warmer than standing and waiting 20 minutes for a cold, crowded bus-to the Institute, I had icicles hanging off my mustache and goatee and about 1/8 inch of ice coating the inside and the outside of my scarf where I was breathing. My glasses felt like they were freezing to my face. Icouldseemy breath in our oh-so-well heated classroom. All this while coughing like a late stage tuberculosis patient. Believe it or not, it was great, if for no other reason than that I can tell stories about having survived one of the coldest periods they've ever had. Brian Neely student in St Petersburg, Russia Humans should respect animal life To the Editor. In his letter to The Observer, Daniel A. Nelson states he is "amazed someone would try to place apes and humans on the same level." He quotes the Bible and states his belief man is meant to rule overall creatures. The fact is mankind does rule over all creatures. The effects of this can be seen in the alarming number of species extinctions that have re­ sulted from mankind's abuse of this privilege. No one is suggesting the welfare of apes or other creatures should be given priority over the welfare of humans. However,-as living beings, ani­ mals should be treated with the respect and consideration all life deserves. Rather than being alarmed some­ one would think so highly of apes, perhaps we should be more con­ cerned that our belief in human superiority has prompted us to abuse the ability to effect other spe­ cies.

Slade Gorton As if April lSdidn'tbring enough misery to American pocketbooks, we Washingtonians will onceagain be singled out by Uncle Sam to pay more. That's right. We may be sending more of our hard-earned money to the govern­ ment just because we live in Wash­ ington state—and that could mean a loss of hundreds of dollars to you. This is outrageous. There is no good reason why we, the hard working people of Wash­ ington, should pay more than our neighbors in other states like Or­ egon or Idaho. This whole problem centers around state taxes and a 1986over­ haul of the federal tax code. To explain it, let me use the examples of Bob Barnes and Sally Smith. Bob and his wife live and work in Washington. Sally and her husband live and work in Oregon. Both are hard working couples making about the same amount of money and paying about the same in state and federal taxes. Before 1986, both Bob and Sally could deduct what they paid to their state governments from their federal returns. Bob could deduct Washington state sales tax and Sally could deduct Oregon income tax. Both couples were treated equally under the law. Legislation passed in 1986, how­ ever, unjustly singled out Bob and his wife for unfair treatment That tax bill said people can no longer deduct state sales taxes. Conse­ quently, Sally and her husband still get to deduct their Oregon income tax, but Bob and his wife cannot deduct their Washington state sales tax. Now, Bob and his wife, simply because they live in Washington, are paying significantly more in taxes. The amount Washingtonians lose is no nickel and dime difference. As just one example, during the last year Washingtonians could use the sales tax deduction, a family of five could have deducted $510 on their 1040 forms. Why should residents of other states be allowed to deduct their share of state taxes while Washing­ ton residents are denied that right? There is no good answer. The people of Washington should not have to give up more of their hard-earned money to the federal government than other Americans. The residents of our state should not be penalized because we have chosen to collect taxes through a sales tax rather than through an income tax. This type of treatment, coupled with the enormous hikes in federal and state taxes imposed last year, make it exceedingly difficult for families and communities to make ends meet. People find themselves working harder to provide for their families, to pay the mortgage, or to finance higher education, yet they find themselves losing more of their money to the government through taxes. I have listened to the outrage of people in Washington state on this issue, and I have introduced legis­ lation that will, simply put, place Washington residents on equal footing with the people of other states. [ | Slade Gorton is a Republi- can senator for Washington state.
The Observer Thursday, April 28, 1994 Page 7 OP-ED Reader supports efforts of 'The Great Ape Project ' primates deserve peace To the Editor. Daniel A. Nelson is using a state­ ment from the Bible to justify cruel and immoral acts upon animals, and I don't believe the author's intentions were such. "Mankind is meant to rule over the fish of the sea and the birds of the air and every living creature that moves on the ground." If you believe the Bible to be law, man­ kind has the right to rule all ani­ mals. But ruling, according to Nelson's interpretation, includes physical and mental torture and in­ voluntary confinement. This may be something one who rules would do, but a better definition of this person would be an oppressor or a dictator. Although one could argue this statement, the position in the letter to the editor in The Observer April 21 supports my argument. "Man is given that position by God, because man, not animals, is created in theimageof God."There- fore, one might conjecture animals' rights, if they have any at all, are irrelevant to man's wishes. After all, man has ultimate control. This justifies any act upon any non- human animal, no matter how cruel or sadistic it may be. Forcing a primate to live in a concrete cell for its entire life is cruel. It is torture. Just because primates convey their feelings and attitudes a bit differently than hu­ mans, we have no right to im­ prison and torture them. It is true chimps cannot write novels. They can't paint with the expression of Picasso. They can't even chip out a marble statue of David. TTiey can, however, show signs of stress. They can become aggressive because of their envi­ ronment. They can act depressed in much the same ways humans act depressed. Maybe we shouldn't immediately disregard an animal's potential for feelings just because some think an old book says so. I believe the passage's author meant something else. Perhaps by being given the right to rule the animals we were supposed to use our intelligence, which in reality is the only tool we have over other animals, to do what is best for all life so we could co-exist All in all, I don't think giving some apes the right to lead a peace­ ful life is such a horrible thing. I support the efforts of the book "The Great Ape Project: Equality Beyond Humanity" and the Chim­ panzee and Human Communica­ tion Institute. Daryl Moore Central graduate Man's superiority over animals not a given argument avoids questions To the Editor: I have written in response to Daniel A. Nelson's letter, which stated, in the April 21 Observer,thatman was meant to rule animals. The letter lists several complaints, but makes no sense. It states there is a discontinuity between human desires and animal desires, and that disproportionate degrees of respect should be applied to these desires. Exactly why should discontinuity be obvious? The letter merely asked, "Do we Students hope to set example To the Editor: A group of students from Central RWSmadea commitment to wait until marriage to have sex. Recognizing the rising threat of AIDS and other sexually transmit­ ted diseases, these students have decided to participate in a national campaign called True Love Can Wait. The abstinence-based campaign was originally conceived by the Southern Baptist Sunday School Board and has flourished to be­ come a non-denominational pro­ gram. Based on the biblical mandate of marriage before sex, the True Love Waits program encourages people to sign commitment cards promis­ ing to remain sexually pure from that moment on. Sexually pure means practicing abstinence from that moment for­ ward, offering those who have been already sexually active a second chance. Those Central students listed be­ low are just a few who have signed this commitment card and hope their decision will encourage others to do the same. allow the wolf to eat the man or the man to eat the wolf?" One cannot answer a question with a question. Food, as pointed out in the ex­ ample with the wolf, is certainly a desire shared by all species. There are other desires we have in common as well. Which ones were being referred Michael Johnson Juliann Cornell Kari Envick Mike Appel Keith Kemp Chris DePoorter Emily Davis Jody McSharry to? The desire for classic books, governments and philosophies? These are not relevant to ani­ mals—no one can say animals want or do not want classic litera­ ture or government. One cannot say that because of these human works, we are greater or lesser than animals. Though the letter quoted Gen­ esis 1:28 to support the argument, it is not enough. It is taking the easy way out to say, "God said so." The Bible also states God himself "created the animals and saw that they were good, and blessed them (paraphrased from Genesis 1:20- 25, NTV)." Animals are just as di­ vine as humans. Further, the Bible states in Ecclesiastes 3:19 that "man's fate is like that of animals the same fate awaits them both: as one dies, so dies the other. All have the same breath man has no advantage over the animal." Trevor German student Pepper Black Rebecca Olson Beverly Thonn Teresa Hanford Ken Ratliff Jayme Harris Beth Schur Meagin Rickard "Believing that true love waits, I make a commitment to God, my­ self, my family, those I date, my future mate and my future children to be sexually pure until the day I enter marriage."

The Observer Thursday, April 28,1994 Page 9 Exhibit shows women 's view of Africa African art display arrives on campus after two-week shipping delay by Joe Butler and Tony Costantl Observer staff After a two-week delay, a collec­ tion of women's art from Africa is now on display in the Samuelson Union Building. The collection, entitled "Africa Through the Eyes of Woman Art­ ists," consists of 10 pieces of art and 30 photographs. Linda Ruffer, director of the Women's Resource Center, said "every display case" in the SUB contains some of the artwork. The Women'sResouceCenterand the women's studies program are responsible for the exhibit's arrival. This exhibit is very popular across the country, Ruffer said. Central had to request it a year in advance. There are 18 to 24 female artists who contributed to the exhibit, Ruffer said. They are from countries includ­ ing Kenya, Nigeria, the Ivory Coast, Mali and Cameroon. The art encompasses both tradi­ tional and modern styles, and was designed to link female artists of African heritage from Africa to North America. Sculpture, acrylic and mud-cloth painting, baticks, utilitarian and ritual pottery, and beaded wood sculptures are included in the dis­ play. The photos show the artists at workand are accompanied by com­ mentaries. The national exhibit was supposed to arrive on campus April 11 but a Teamster's Union strike prevented shipping. Miriam Emry, program coordina­ tor for the Women' s Resource Cen­ ter, said the artwork was being shipped from Arkansas when acase containing a piece of the artwork was broken and could not be shipped or repaired. Finally, the exhibit, minus one case, arrived last week and was set up in the SUB. Betty LaDuke, a painter and teacher at Southern Oregon State College, put together the exhibit, which has toured across the coun­ try- LaDuke traveled through Africa while doing research from 1986 to 1991, and the exhibit illustrates much of the art and people she encountered. The exhibit will be on display during the SUB's regular hours of operation (7 a.m. to 10 p.m.) until May 1. "We are thrilled about it coming, but are disappointed about having it only two weeks," Emry said.

I I • - 5 J¥T Talking Trash... Two of Central's heroes, Enviro-Woman and Disposo- Man, made their yearly appear­ ance Friday to coincide with Central's Earth Day festivities. The 'dynamic duo' emerged from a dumpster outside the Samuelson Union Building. They then began rummaging through the garbage,selecting items which could have been re­ cycled instead of thrown away. by Marsha Jensen Staff reporter "Central's Symphonic Wind Ensemble has been invited to perform at the College Band Directors' National Association conference in February 1995. The group will give a 90- minute performance at the national conference Feb. 24 in Boulder, Colo. The opportunity for a univer­ sity Central's size to perform at such a national meeting is remarkable, said Russ Schultz, Central music department chair. "Our invitation is equal to the football team being invited to participate in the national finals, but not with only NAIA Division II schools," Schultz said. 'This would be like a national tournament with all of the NCAA and NAIA schools included." Larry Gookin, professor of music and conductor of the ensemble, agreed, calling the invitation "a rather prestigious offer." Two years ago the ensemble performed at the West and Northwest CBDNA conference in Reno, Nev. Gookin then submitted an audition tape to the association for the 1995 conference. There were five winners, selected by a blind process, meaning the judges evaluated the audio tapes without know­ ing the performing group's identities. Central will join wind en­ sembles from Oklahoma State University, the University of Calgary, the University of Colorado and the University of Texas at the conference. Did you know...

Page 10 Art show represents facets of department Thursday, April 28,1994 The Observer by Diane M. Schuirman Editor-in-chief Approximately 50 art students are seeing their work in a professional setting at the student art show in the Sarah Spurgeon Gallery, said Jim Sahlstrand, gallery director and art professor. The show, which consists of ap­ proximately 200 exhibits, runs through May 13, Sahlstrand said. "It gives students a chance to see what their work looks like in a somewhat professional setting, and also what it looks like next to oth­ ers' work/' he said. "Additionally, it's an opportunity to see what other students are doing. "It feels good to see your work on exhibit." The student art show is an annual event the campus and Ellensburg communities are invited to, Sahlstrand said. Admission is free. 'The show represents the good, quality work the people taking art are doing," he said. "It includes work from every area of the art department" The show includes paintings, sculptures, photographs, metal- working exhibits and drawings. The show was put up entirely by students, Sahlstrand said. "They did all the putting up of exhibits and the laying out of the gallery," he said. 'They decided how it was going to lode." The show was put up between April 22 and April 25, and opened Monday night Art instructors solicited exhibits for the show by announcing it to their classes. In some cases, exhib­ iting at the show is part of a course requirement Sahlstrand said. "We don't have any requirements for exhibits in terms of quality, but we do ask that they be from this academic year," he said. "We hold the show in the spring so students will have two quarters of work they can choose from." Linoleum cuts, oil paintings, color and graphite pencil drawings, airbrush acrylic paintings, caste bronze and aluminum sculptures, ceramic sculptures, watercolor paintings, pastel works, copper and silver metalsmithing works, and sen graph works can be seen at the show.

You know, all those eight- tracks the bus driver was forced to play for fear of be­ ing slapped by a blue eyeshadow palette. They're all here, the real gems of any 70s prom: "Love Hurts" from Nazareth, "Slow Ride" viaFoghat "Tush" by ZZ Top. There's just one thing to keep in mind. If you can't seek out and laugh at the overt cheesiness of all these washed up, testosterone- filled e songs, life has become way too serious. Both the film—just re­ leased on video—and the soundtrack are unabashedly out of their element in the politically cor­ rect 90s, but that's what makes them so great Besides, since the 80s, everyone's been saying the 70s are back. There seems to be a renewed ap­ preciation for hefty guitar screechy, high vocals and songs fH about, uh, sex ( i . e .

After shaving their heads and applying 10 different products Crisco, Turtle Wax, Mr. Clean, caramel, a mixture of phlegm and saliva, Hi-Pro, corn syrup and Zima, Brasso, shoe polish, and a mixture of two eggs, baking soda, flour, sugar, and water baked at 350 degrees for 45 minutes (frosting was optional), we judged the experiment a failure. The test subjects said the cake turned out all right but they would have gone with frosting. Q. Dear Answer People: If you were bald, would you use soap or shampoo? -Andrew B. A. Our research team randomly surveyed 10 million bald males and females. Here are the results: 25 percent said they prefer soaking in Palmolive 35 percent said they liked the taste of Dial better 42 J percent said, "Sweat is best" and, 22 percent said they would have gone with chocolate frosting. Q. Dear Answer People: Who are those people between Studio East and Holmes West? What are they doing there and why do they stare at me? Plus, where did they get their hair done? -DimaA. A. We've been hoping for someone as perceptive as you. You've stumbled onto one of Central's well-kept secrets: the location of our research team. Here's the real question they want an answer to: how do they get out? They've been in there for two years! Any ideas, please write. P.S. As a hobby, they are beauti­ cians woiking on their correspon­ dence degrees from the Jos6 Juarez School of Beauty. Here's a new feature: You send in the answers to this question! The best answer by the end of the year wins something neat and a position on the research team! Q. Why do women go to the bathrooms in groups? Why don't men?

Central baseball team kept its playoff hopes alive with a thrill­ ing 8-7 win over Whitworth Col­ lege and a 14-6 win over Western Baptist University. As of April 26, the Wildcats are 4- 4 in league play and trail Pacific Lutheran University by three games for the second and final playoff spot from District I. Central took on the Lutes Wednesday in Tacoma,but results were not avail­ able at press time. April 19 the Wildcats had to hold off several comebacks by Whitworth to take home the win. Central senior Bryan Townley singled in freshman Dan Ericson with two outs in the bottom of the ninth inning. "I was looking for a fastball," Townley said. "After he (the Whitworth pitcher) missed with the first pitch I figured he would throw a fastball and I got it." The Wildcats took a 7-2 lead after six innings but Whitworth re­ sponded with six runs of its own, knotting the score at 7. Central senior Thad Nelson doubled with one out in the ninth. Ericson went to ran for Nelson and Townley's heroics came one out later. "I knew we had a good chance to score the run from what the (Whitworth) outfielders were do­ ing," Townley said. "I knew the coach would send the runner home." "I could do it 10 times over again and never get sick of it," Townley said. The single made a winner out of junior Colby Rogers. Rogers re­ placed starter Rich Newell in the sixth inning to pick up his first win of the season. The Wildcats then traveled to Sa­ lem, Ore., for a non-district game with Western Baptist. Central got home runs from Doug Ashmore and Berry Duty in the lopsided win, its third victory of the season against Western baptist The Wildcats sweptadoubleheader way back on March 3. Ashmore's home run was his sec­ ond one this year, as was Duty's blast. Duty's home run came on a pitch he normally doesn't swing at "It was a fastball high and inside," Duty said. "A lot of times I don't hit that pitch but for some reason I swung. I got a little lucky and hit it oui of the park." The wins gave the Wildcats con­ fidence going into the crucial doubleheader with the Lutes and Duty said they had some momen­ tum as well. "The way we're playing now we are playing better than we have all year," Duty said. "We're starting to mesh and come together as a team and we are pulling out wins." In pointing to the fact Central basi­ cally has to win the rest of its games to make the playoffs, Duty said options are limited. "We have no choice but to play as hard as we can," Duty said. "We're like a fine wine in that after time it gets better and so have we as a team this season," Duty said. I. } V * -I,.

Page 14 The Observer ^ Softball splits with district foes by Ernest M.Baldwin Staff reporter • The Central women's Softball team split doubleheaders against Western Washington University and Simon Fraser University last weekend. The Wildcats' record in. league play is currently 7-7. They arc a game ahead of Simon Fraser in the battle for the third and final play­ off spot in District I. The Wildcats had a 7-4 lead going into the last two innings of the first Western game Saturday but made some costly mistakes. The Vikings rallied to win the game 10-7. The Wildcats were led by senior Karla Mortenson and sophomore Wendy Koch, who each had two hits for the first game. Also, junior Denise Laws homered in the third inning, the first-ever Wildcat to do so in the team's history. The Wildcats rebounded and won the second game 10-2. They broke the game open in the fourth inning with seven runs crossing the plate. Then they added a few more insur­ ance runs in the later innings to pick up the victory. "We made some errors in the first game which cost us," head coach Nancy Katzer said. "But we got aggressive in the second game and our hitting was consistent" Mortenson said,"We know what we can do as a team and we are showing it on the field." In the doubleheader at Simon Fraser Sunday, the Wildcats trailed early in the first game 2-0. But, in the top of the fifth inning Central tied the game on a double by junior Linda Cook. Cook later scored on Laws* RBI single, which gave Cen­ tral the lead for good. Senior Kim Spradlin picked up the win as she settled down after giving up two runs in the first in­ ning. "We were really focused at the plate. Their pitcher is great at get­ ting you to swing at bad pitches," Katzer said. "But we were patient and got to her at the end." Senior catcher Jennifer McGaha said, "We improved our pitch se­ lection and got some consecutive &/AA ELLENSBURG, WASHINGTON SHAPE UP FOR S UMMER On\%i 69 Pcrmonth AT THIS PRICE YOU CAN'T AFFORD NOT TO WORK OUT.

In the second game, Simon Fraser built an early 5-0 lead and never looked back, winning 8-1. "We tried to put the pressure on them in the field by being aggres­ sive on the bases, but they re­ sponded and made the perfect throws and outs to win the game," Katzer said. Mortenson said, "We had a hard time recovering from the first game and got too relaxed." The Wildcats hosted Yakima Val­ ley Community College in an exhi­ bition game Tuesday, which they won 5-1. They traveled to Wenatchee to tangle with Wenatchee Valley Community College Wednesday. Results were not available at press time. Next up for the Wildcats is an exhibition at Concordia College April 30. The last games of the season before the playoffs are at Western at 3 p.m. May 2. Pacific Lutheran University is in first place in the district with an 8-1 record and will host the playoffs. * §!§» Ken Pennell / The Observer Linda Cook, who is hitting .426 this season, makes contact City, campus officials play ball • Softball field dedication home run with community, university by Jason Goldner Staff reporter Central and the city of EUensburg celebrated their collaborative ef­ forts to promote better relations between the two entitles Saturday at the community recreation soft- ball field dedication. The ceremony, which took place at the newly-built Softball field at 18th and Alder streets, included speeches by Ellensburg Mayor Mollie Edson and Central Presi­ dent Ivoiy V. Nelson, an unveiling of the field's sign and a celebrity softball game. "This is a very special day in the history of Ellensburg," said Gail Jones, committee coordinator for ihc event. "Our committee is hop­ ing this is the beginning of an an­ nual event" The project began last summer after the university and city offi­ cials worked out a compromise for payment of Central's debts owed to the city for the school's fire insurance policy. Two years ago, after the school refused to pay the city for fire in­ surance, the city of Ellenburgtook Central to District Court The city was awarded an undisclosed amount Edson restated this point in her speech. "Although we are celebrating this collaborative effort, I hate to re­ mind you all that this field did not come about because of coopera­ tion," Edson said. "It came about because of a tre­ mendous conflict that we had with Central for many, many years over fire protection."

Nelson emphasized the impor­ tance of the city and the university keeping closer ties through future conflicts. "In any community there's always going to exist tensions," he said. "How we deal with these tensions depends on the individuals within the community and university. "When we're living in a commu­ nity as small as Ellensburg, it is impossible to separate one of us from the other," Nelson said. High school girls' and Little League girls' softball teams are cur­ rently using the field. "It was a really complicated situ­ ation that is now quite unique, be­ cause both the school and commu­ nity will be able to use it," Craig Carlson, director of the Ellensburg Recreation Department, said.
