Two students die in crash by Tim Yeadon Staff reporter Two Central freshmen were killed and two others were injured early Sunday morning after leaving a nearby party when their car plunged over an enbankment on Mud Lake Road near Naches, the .Washington State Patrol said. Patrick V. Cochran, 18, from Se­ attle and Philip M. Young, the driver, 19, from Colleyville, Texas were killed instantly due to massive inter­ nal injuries after Young's 1995 Chevrolet Blazer missed a turn and rolled several times down a 200-foot embankment. Surviving the accident were fresh­ men, Ryan Newell, 18, from Seattle, and Max Moremont, 18, from Buena Parte, California. Newell was treated at Kittitas Val­ ley Hospital for bumps and abrasions after being transported from the acci­ dent by a private party. Moremont sustained a head laceration. According to WSP Lt. Bill O'Hare, the accident is still under in­ vestigation and the WSP would not know if alcohol was involved until the investigation was complete. Leonard Edmonds, interim direc­ tor of residence living, said CWU counselors met with students in Beck Hall Sunday night to discuss their feelings about the accident. "We wanted people to know there was a place people could have the facts and not rumors," Edmonds said. "We had the counseling center there all day to talk to friends of Pat and Phil." Edmonds said he thought there would be a memorial service on cam­ pus for Cochran and Young but did not know when would be. "We are waiting to hear what the students of Beck Hall would like to do," Edmonds said. A Vigil Service for Patrick Cochran was held in Seattle on Wednesday. Funeral services will be held today at 1 p.m. at St. Bridget's Catholic Church in Seattle. Cochran's mother, Wendy O'Connell, has indicated that if people wish to give a monetary me­ morial, please do so in care of Central's D.A.P.P.E.R. program.

Twenty-four hours after his letter appeared on President Nelson's desk, the administration announced both Stacy's resignation and David Dauwalder's appointment as interim provost, effective last Friday, Nov. 15. In his letter, dated Nov. 13, Stacy said that health problems were the primary reason for his resignation. President Nelson approved Stacy's resignation, which took effect at 5 pm on Friday, Nov. 15. President Nelson would not elabo­ rate on the health problems that forced. Stacy's resignation. "You will have to discuss it with him. It would be inappropriate for me to say," Nelson said. Stacy de­ clined to discuss ei­ ther his res­ ignation or health prob­ lems. Gerald Stacy Stacy has returned to his faculty position in the English department on Monday, sur­ prising some observers, including Sarah Shumate, vice president for stu­ dent affairs. "Right before I came [to Central] he was just coming back from having a major attack, and he was contem­ plating going into the classroom ... and his heart started acting Up again," Shumate said. "He was really worried about going back in the classroom because he had a group of freshmen.

Were they serious or joking? Central has several policies that can aid students when they are faced with inappropriate behaviors. Ac­ cording to the 1996-98 University catalog, "the university has estab­ lished mechanisms to address com­ plaints to discriminatory treatment, including harassing behaviors (e.g., physical, verbal, graphic, or written) which might lead to the creation of a hostile environment." If a student feels like they have been treated unfairly by a professor or employee of the university because of sex, race, age or disability, they have places to go that can help. One of those places is the affirmative action office.

When a student feels they have been sexually harassed by another stu­ dent they have the option to file a complaint through the office of the vice-president for student affairs. "At that point according to the [CWU student judicial] code we have the right to probe an allegation and lo have a meeting, both to investigate, hear the other side of the story and get more details," assistant vice-president for student affairs Deacon Meier said. "We review what makes them believe they were harassed or were not." Meier said he receives three or four sexual harassment complaints per See STUDENTS/Page 4 Page 2 Thursday, November 21,1996 Observer Fracture here, urine there, saw where?

Sparks fly in Muzzall dumpster by Brien Bartels Staff reporter At 2:53 p.m. Monday, a witness on the eighth floor of Muzzall reported smoke coming into the building through a garbage chute door. Campus Police and Ellensburg firefighters responded and contacted university maintenance workers at the scene. Both the police and the fire depart­ ment are continuing to investigate the fire. University Police Chief Steve Rittereiser said there is reason to be­ lieve the fire started accidentally when someone threw a bag of burnt popcorn down the hall's north garbage chute. The maintenance workers said a fire started in the dumpster at the base of the garbage chute. Smoke from the fire activated a set of emergency sprin­ klers on the third floor, which doused the fire. Rittereiser said the fire was con­ tained in the dumpster, causing no sig­ nificant damage. FREE Delivery to CWU with my "Wildcat Special." (with coupon below) Ellensburg 506 S.

It looks like a good year to start' your career. Tom Broberg, director of career development and cooperative educa­ tion services, said things are looking better than they have over the last few years. College hiring is predicted to rise by 17 percent this year, a trend Broberg calls "quite encouraging." "This is the first year in the last four that there's been a double digit increase," he said. "The jobs are out there. The question is, are people pre­ pared?" A recent national survey of the hot­ test careers has good news for Central students: You can get there from here. The U.S. News and World Report 1997 Annual Career Guide showed strongest growth and best pay in spe­ cialized sub-fields like forensic ac­ counting, management consulting, special education teaching, media planning for advertising, crime analy­ sis, film editing, and chemical engi­ neering. A Central degree, with some forethought, can get graduates on track to these jobs. But counselors from Central's Ca­ reer Development and Cooperative This is the first year in the last four that there's been a double digit increase (in hiring). The jobs are out there. The question is, are people prepared? -Tom Broberg Education Services office caution stu­ dents against planning their college years around getting into some well- paid specialty listed in a magazine. Counselor Maxine Herbert-Hill said the average salaries listed in the survey look high compared to most job vacancies listed in the office. The survey missed out on some fields, such as corrections officers, that post job vacancies almost every week. Even though some job markets are tight, such as television news reporter, Central graduates have good opportu­ nities because of access to Yakima's local stations. "I think our students have an excel­ lent opportunity for a kind of farm experience, the basic training you would get at a smaller station," Herbert-Hill said. "You have to be a jack-of-all-trades, and enjoy being a jack-of-all-trades, at a smaller sta­ tion." The experience gained at a first job in a small market like Yakima can be a great asset when shopping for jobs at larger stations, Herbert-Hill said. While the survey doesn't reflect the employment picture at Central perfectly, career counselor Robert Malde said it is right about special education. "There's still a heavy demand for teachers in special education," Malde said. "A very heavy demand. We mm mimM H Stops on the career path For academic advising: .

Learn to learn: Getting the most out of college by Brien Bartels Staff Reporter The job search experts at Career Development and Cooperative Educa­ tion Services have words of warning for degree seekers: Plan ahead. Learn how to learn. Actively acquire and sharpen the skills that all employers will pay for. Tom Broberg, director of the cen­ ter, and Randy Williamson, a career counselor, talked about how to get the most out of an increasingly expensive college education and land the job you're looking for. Q-What do you see as the hot­ test careers? Randy Williamson: Number one is still in the computer engineering and programming, software engi­ neering, and those computer-affili­ ated occupations. Occupational therapy, physical therapy, speech and language pathology, those are right up there. Tom Broberg: As the baby boomers age, gerontology fields will expand. R.W.: A lot of social service ca­ reers, such as residential counseling and case management work.

Education, especially teaching and guidance counseling, tend to be hot areas as well. Q-What's the common thread in growing careers? T.B.: Most individuals now, no matter where they're going, have to interface with a computer. R.W.: Whether you have a coun­ seling position, like I do, or are the secretary, you have to know how to operate a computer. Q- Are other majors outside of computer science creating com­ puter literate graduates? T.B.- In some areas, yes. In other areas, not so well. And other areas are way behind. But I think they're wak­ ing up—the students and the depart­ ments. For instance, we have the writ­ ing center here on campus for the be­ ginning English courses. You go up there and look at that classroom, and at every desk there's a computer. Q-What skills should students concentrate on while they're in school? R.W.-One of the biggest is com­ puter literacy, along with being able to think critically, oral communica­ tion, written communication team­ work, interpersonal skills* all those types of things. 1 think there's a real need out there, according to anyone you talk to. 1 would put all those skills together and they all need tohe devel­ oped, because you're going to have to write, speak, and use a computer in almost any career. And the same goes for critical thinking skills because you have to be able to problem-solve. Those skills have to be really en­ hanced. Q-What are some ways to do that? R.W.-Lotsof classes have ways to do that. You take a logic class. I came up with a lot of critical thinking in a logic class. Math is another way to go. T.B.- At least math through calcu­ * ^ mmm Randy Williamson (left) and Tom Broberg Brien Bartels/Observer lus and/or statistics. That scares a lot of people. But it's really good train­ ing to get into the higher levels of thinking. But you know a lot of that rests on the individual. Too many times 1 think college students want to be led all the way through. There's a lot of self-responsibility also. R.W.-Get involved in clubs and activities. There are great opportuni­ ties to build people skills and leader­ ship skills and become familiar with the community. And see if you can get involved in community service ac­ tivities, too. Those are great for build­ ing problem-solving skills. Q-Ofeay, you've mastered these R.W.-1 think preparation is the key element. You plan to begin your job search six to nine months before graduation. Don't wait for the day of, because you're going to be behind. The average job search is a six to nine month process. You've got to plan and be prepared, and if you do that, then you are ready for life after college. If you don't, there's going to be a scary environment when you graduate. Q-What are you doing during those six to nine months? R.W.- A lot of laying the ground work for your job search is getting to know what employers are out there, and who's offering the type of posi­ tion you're looking for. That's a lot of research you need to do. Next is get­ ting out and doing some networking, and getting to know people in your field. Not necessarily looking for a job, but making connections. The ac­ tual mailing out of resumes may come later on in the process. When you do a cover letter and a resume, it should be targeted for the company you're applying to. You should be talking about the types of skills they look for in an employee, rather than this ge­ neric skill list that ym send out to everyone. That's why you need to do all that research. T.B.- Be proactive in your own learning. One of the things I mention is learn how to leant. Especially m this society. Because of technology and things changing as rapidly as they're changing, that's the type of skill that employers are looking for—people that know how to learn can adapt to those changes. If students really come here to learn how to learn, most ev­ erything else will take care of itself. Page 4 Thursday, November 21,1996 Observer HARASS: Many students won't tell those who can help From page 1 ceives five to eight discrimination complaints pcv quarter, a majority of which are sexual. Surveys indicate that most individuals, male or female, who believe they are being sexually harassed do not report it, Nancy Howard, director of affirmative ac­ tion, said. "The reason given the most often was that they felt nothing would be done about it." Howard said. She thinks men have a difficult time complaining about sexual harass­ ment. feeling that they should have been able to handle it. "My job is to make [students] feel comfortable so that they can tell their story." Howard said. "I'm here to lis­ ten, and I'm here to talk about what options there are for them." According to CWU policy, once the university knows that there is a problem, action must be taken. Students who wish to remain anonymous still have options^ Also affecting student-professor relations is the Conflict of Interest policy developed and introduced in July. The policy dictates that anyone responsible for teaching, evaluating or academic supervising must eliminate any perceptions of bias arising out of personal and professional relation­ ships between faculty and students. This policy applies to professors who have "amorous relationships" with students who are enrolled in that professor's class. Laura Appleton, sociology profes­ sor and chair of the committee who drafted the conflict of interest policy, said she feels this is an academic prob­ lem and additional measures had to be taken to ensure fairness. "If I'm sleeping with a student in my class, how could 1 be seen being fair and objective and evenhanded?" Appleton said. The Conflict of Interest policy re­ quires there be a degree of oversight. "What that might be in a given department depends on the depart­ ment," Appleton said. A complaint can be handled infor­ mally or formally. "With informal complaints it's usually just a matter of sitting down with the individual the student, has made a complaint about and describ­ ing the student's perception and what they experienced," Howard said. If the alleged harasser has a his­ tory of documented complaints, then Howard's approach stiffens and the student is encouraged to make a for­ mal complaint. "A formal process takes time, it may even take a year, because we are very careful in checking all witnesses, gathering documentation, and writing investigative reports. The [Affirma­ tive Action Grievance Committee] has to review it, there have to be hear­ ings, and there are certain time con­ straints, so that takes a little longer," Howard said. If the student does not want to make a formal complaint, then no dis­ ciplinary action may be taken by the university. "No way, how could we do that if the person doesn't have the right to face their accuser," Howard said. "We can do training, that's not discipline. Hopefully, that's education." If the student doesn't want to make a formal complaint, Howard said she often involves the dean or department * chair in the issue so somebody else in that individual's department is aware of the behavior. "I have had departments which have taken action or censured a fac­ ulty member," Howard said. "There are a number of ways you can go." STUDENTS: Peer advocates help lend support to victims From page 1 quarter and often they come down to a "he said/she said" thing where there are no witnesses. Mediation is often the answer. "We are sensitive to it, we don't pass it off," Meier said. 'This office is not in the business of saying, 'good ole boys will be good ole boys.' We want to know about it, especially if it is chronic." Meier said in a mediation process it is important for the person who felt they were harassed to have a peer ad­ vocate to comfort them. "With sexual harassment, there are some pretty intense and graphic things that are said," Meier said" "So it's not easy for a woman to just roll that out in front of me because you have to get specifics in all these cases, because due process fits in here, too." "Every one of us has due process rights." Meier said "It's not just 'guilty until proven guilty."' Meier said one way to avoid ha­ rassing someone is to "grow up," add­ ing that for some people it is a long process. "Individuals who are immature and are aggressive to the point where they are going to do that, are probably going to do that," Meier said. "Avoid­ ance isn't a bad thing when you can." "Early on, let people know you don't appreciate that," Meier said, "because guys can be kind of boneheaded about that sort of thing." Meier cautioned people to be more aware of the impact of their words and actions. "[Just because] you got away with it, it still may have hurt," Meier said.

Brien Bartels/Observer Shocked and appalled, Jim Cadello, as philosopher Jean- Jacques Rousseau, encounters the modern age. Rousseau lectures n to students through Central professor ^ by Brien Bartels Staff reporter Philosophy professor Jim Cadello, dressed inl8th century fashion, lec-. tured students of the Douglas Honors College in the character of Jean- Jacques Rousseau, an iconoclastic French philosopher. "All of what counts as civilization, all of what counts as learning, all of what counts as our supposed moral improvement, that's been garnered through the enlightenment, is in fact a retrogression," Cadello said, sum­ marizing his alter ego's thesis. "Rousseau believed people were bet­ ter off leading simple lives than they were being part of a complex society. And this 240 years ago. He'd be shocked and appalled if he were to see how far we've come. He would not think of it as an advancement at all." The DHC students usually hear guest lecturers in the course of their class, but they agreed this was a de­ parture. "Most of them are just professors going through their professorial rou­ tine," Julie Shamak said. "'This is his life and this is what he did.' This was refreshing." "Jean-Jacques Rousseau" con­ sented to be interviewed by the Ob­ server before the lecture. Q-Could you tell readers how you've affected social movements and modern thought? A-Fm one of the founding fathers of liberal democratic ideals, one of the 1 : / '".-J. Q-The only place people read about you anymore is in the news­ paper columns of George F. Will, and he blames you for the downfall of morality. How do you respond to that? A-Well, George Will is a simple- A minded man. Of course, I'm new to ™ your century so I've only glanced at the writings of this arch-conservative whom you call George Will. But he's basically an uncivilized, uncouth, and overall, an insignificant, petty, unin­ teresting dot on the landscape of your ^ already insipid culture. So there's re­ ally not much to say. Q-What do you think of the in­ tellectual cliiqate of our time? A-I think the intellectual climate of the latter half of the twentieth century | is appalling. We've shifteid away from reflection on issues of lofty impor­ tance and have become focused in­ stead on merely material and voca­ tional concerns. I think that leads to the deprivation of institutions of higher learning, and I would like to see us return to the tradition where the liberal arts are studied and cultivated in a manner befitting a civilized country....I think it's much more im­ portant that people recover their natu­ ral sense of goodness. They could \ have a more basic and fundamental sense of who they are, not these cor­ rupted images that you people have in modernity, of selves configured by advertising and the popul:r media.

Observer Thursday, November 21,1996 Page 5 photo illustration David Dick , Nation kicks the habit for a day by Mike Jones Staff reporter Today, every smoker has a reason to quit. Celebrating 20 years of help­ ing smokers kick the habit, The American Cancer Society is challeng­ ing every smoker nationwide to quit puffing for 24 hours in the annual Great American Smokeout. This year the Smokeout message targets nonsmokers and adolescents. According to ACS, thousands of non- smokers die each year from such smoking-related illness' as lung can­ cer and heart disease, and an estimated 3,000 adolescents start smoking every day. Such statistics concern Kerry Rodgers, a Central student and volun­ teer at the Kittitas County Health De­ partment. "I don't consider myself separate from smokers, like a goody-goody person," Rodgers said. "I just want people to be mindful that the Smokeout is not only a day set aside for smokers, but also a reminder that their smoke harms others. There is even documented evidence of dogs dying from secondhand smoke." "I don't think it will help me or anyone else," one North Hall resident said. "It's way too addictive. I started when I was 16, and now I'm 24. Of course I wish I never started, but ev­ eryone dies from something anyway, so you might as well enjoy it." According to a National Health Interview Study, 81 percent of smok­ ers said they would not start smoking again if they had it to do over. Aside from health risks, the ACS is asking smokers to consider the fi­ nancial toll of buying tobacco prod­ ucts. Data collected by the ACS sug­ gests that over $960 million are spent annually on tobacco products by teen­ agers alone. - NELSON: Faculty say they feel Nelson is an autocrat From page 2 % the response didn't really address problems at hand because many goals outlined in the reponse were ones any­ one would endorse. "Everybody wants equitable treat­ ment of [individuals] at all levels," she said. "Who would argue with that?" She also questioned the effective­ ness Of some suggestions outlined in the vice presidents' list because many had to do with programs and offices already in place. She said she did not x see how existing programs that have not worked in the past will work in the future. New responsibilities for existing offices and programs were outlined in the response. The Department of Human Resources, formerly known as $ the personnel office, is one such of­ fice. The response states the Depart­ ment of Human Resources will be "given new responsibilities to develop training programs on interpersonal » relationships, conflict resolution, eth­ nic, gender, and university manage­ ment issues." Nelson said these new responsi­ bilities will not include a pay increase or the addition of new members to the staff. Garrison said this will result in more work for an already overworked staff, and probably cause a decline in morale in that department. The response letter also outlines a system of recognition for Central fac­ ulty, but United Facultyjco-president Lila Harper said she didn't see that as a very good solution. "All the recognition in the world is not going to help someone who is overworked," she said. The Campus Climate Report stated the faculty feel Nelson is an autocrat, that decisions concerning the faculty and university are made unilaterally, that there is not enough faculty input, and policies are arbitrarily handed down by the president's office. Presi­ dent Nelson said he did not feel a re­ sponse to this was necessary. "I didn't want to personalize it," Nelson said.

PROVOST: Business dean appointed From page 1 He said he thought the perception was caused by more controversial decisions that some disagreed with. "If I'm charged with making a de­ cision, shouldn't I make it?" he said. Nelson said he tries to keep an "open door" policy. "People can come talk to me any time they wish," he said. "By the mere fact that I responded [to the re­ port], I was being open." "You can have reports, you can have rules, you can have regulations —you can have a whole lot of things but if we don't feel the responsibility of treating our fellow man fairly, equally, respectfully... then no matter what we do with rules and regulations, it won't work." .. and in English I suspect fresh­ men can be pretty stressful." According to-Shumate, Stacy was not teaching while serving as provost. The provost is the second highest ranking official on campus and a member of the president's cabinet. The provost is responsible for all of the university's academic programs, including budgets, personnel and planning, and represents the univer­ sity to educational, governmental and accreditation agencies. 'The job of provost is thankless, it is pressure, anxiety inducing, and I wouldn't wish it on my own worst enemy," Greg Trujillo, director of in­ stitutional studies, assessment and evaluation, said. Trujillo was also one of the five finalists for the provost's job this Sep­ tember. Others nominated for the position included Stacy, Dauwalder, Anne Denman, dean of the college of arts and humanities and Tom Moore, the former provost and current direc­ tor of the Yakima branch campus. David Dauwalder, the newly ap­ pointed interim provost, previously served as the dean of the college of business and economics. He will serve as provost until a search com­ mittee fills the position, which should take place before July, 1997. "Dr. Dauwalder has made great progress during his first three years as dean to prepare our school of business and economics for accreditation," Nelson said. "He will continue this important work with his faculty col­ leagues during his term as interim pro­ vost."

A professor gets caught with a student and within hours people as far away as the West Interchange have heard through the rumor mill all the sordid details of their intimate soiree. Sound familiar? Sexual harassment is a serious problem on campus and it affects all levels of the university from the highest offices of the administration to the youngest freshmen on campus. It was one of the major issues presented last winter in the Campus Climate Report and more recently Sarah Shumate discussed it at length in an Observer guest column. On Tuesday President Nelson said that no resources have been specifically dedicated to tackling sexual harassment and that in every message the university has sent out on the • issue it has been made clear that improper behavior will not be tolerated. Too bad no one has defined what improper behavior is. Another example of the university's lackluster approach to sexual harassment is in creating and enforcing policies but not informing people of them. For example, last spring Professor Laura Appleton chaired a committee that wrote the policy that addressed the problem of student-faculty relationships. It defined in black and white exactly what is proper conduct between students and the faculty and administration. However, there has been no effort at any level to inform students of this policy. How does the university expect to enforce policies on people who know nothing about them? If the university were serious about sexual harassment, it would create and implement policies, and demand that they were adhered to by everyone from the residents up in Student Village to the administrators down in Barge Hall. Too bad the university isn't serious though, huh?

The Board of Directors believes that all students are potential leaders. Be­ cause of this belief, it has been tradi­ tion to teach students to identify their leadership style and how to make it work for them. The class offered is called Emerging Leaders and is taught winter quarter by two BOD members. Emerging Leaders is a class for every­ one, whether you see yourself as a stu­ dent leader on campus or you want to lead in your profession. We will ex­ plain the benefits of networking at any function, the ins and outs of higher education, and the leadership opportu­ nities at Central. The Emerging Lead­ ers Class is offered on Monday and Wednesday from 3-4 p.m. and Tues­ day and Thursday from 3-4 p.m. To sign up for this class you must stop by SUB 116, as you cannot register through REGI. As a former student of this course I can personally tell you that this class opened doors for me and made me aware of various issues that the stu­ dents as a whole face on this campus. This class introduced me to the mov­ ers and shakers at CWU. It taught me about how my leadership style may not be the same as someone else's, but we can still work as a team. This is a course taught by leaders to leaders. To create change in a system, you must know the system. This will teach you how to make a difference. As future leaders, because one day we will run the world, we will be making deci­ sions about financial aid, child care, access to higher education, and stu­ dents rights. The Emerging Leaders class will give you the opportunity to sharpen your leadership skills. If you have any question, feel free to call 963-1693 or stop by the ASCWU office in SUB 116. Amy Gillespie ASCWU Vice President for Student Life and Facilities Protect yourself from vehicle prowlers Campus Cops provide insight to avoid being a victim What can I do to protect myself from vehicle prowls? Here are some simple straightfor­ ward suggestions that will make your car a little less appealing to a vehicle prowler. 1. Park your car under well lit areas. Many thieves like to work un­ der the cover of darkness and do not wish to be seen. Parking in any of the lit parking areas on campus will help prevent someone from causing too much commotion around your car. where they can be seen. 2. If your car has a car alarm, ARM IT! It is surprising that some people actually have car alarms in- LETTER WRITERS: All letters must be submitted by 3 p.m. Friday before the week of publication date.

Car alarms have frightened away more than a few would-be car prowlers. 3. Lock your vehicle. Many thieves like to go through the lots and just see which car doors are unlocked. They don't want to draw attention to themselves by breaking glass so they just walk through and try door handles. 4. Take small valuable items out of your car with you or hide them out of view. Thieves are tempted by cd's, cell phones, and stereo faceplates out in plain view. These "smash and grab" prowlers see something they want that is just a pane of glass away and stay See PROWL/Pg 7 Observer Thursday, November 21,1996 Page 7 PROWL: steps to protect your valuables From Pg 6 in the area of a car long enough to break glass, grab an item, and get away. In the past people have found that it is helpful to cover up their valu­ able speaker systems with blankets in order to conceal them. 5. Report any suspicious activ­ ity you may see. If you suspect that you are possibly watching someone look through cars or trying multiple door handles to different vehicles, call the University Police IMMEDI­ ATELY!

Ng University Police Person rants on random issues To the Editor, Before the Oafs of the 60's started to run Ellensburg, my home town led a cordial existence with CWU. The stigma types of the social seventies pretty much divided us up into cliques. If a student has a beef with the school or a retailer you need not be angry or become a victim. There is nothing niggardly about picketing if the message is honest and upbeat. The classics are not studied any­ more in high school or college like they were a hundred years ago. Com­ merce used to be composed of men with backbone. Today, evil slander destroys more life than a good paddle- whack ever will.

"I've been here 15 years and I've never seen it snow this much, this fast," Steve Rittereiser, head of campus security, said. At 7 a.m. Tuesday, the uni- David Dick/photo editor versity sent out a campus- wide message that classes would be held less than two hours later the decision was reversed. President Nelson closed the campus and asked that only essential personnel — facilities management, cam­ pus police and dining services — come to work. Rittereiser said that crews from facilities management were working to clear away the snow but were running into some obstacles. "Our crews that are remov­ ing snow are running into problems with students pelt­ ing workers with snowballs," he said. Rittereiser also said that there were numerous reports of vehicles getting stuck, but the police department decided not to give any motorist as­ sists in order to help prevent more people from getting their vehicles out on the road, "We're cautioning people — don't drive if you don't have to," he said. "The people on the plows can't keep up with the amount of snow com­ ing down." Fortunately, no essential services were effected during the storm. No power outages were re­ ported, but the phone lines were clogged at times due to the flood of people trying to call out of the area. The Washington State Pa­ trol reported that both Inter­ state 82 and Highway 821 to Yakima were closed, while Interstate 90 across Sno- qualmie Pass remained open. 'I love playing in snow and "I don't like it because you winter games like skiing and can't go anywhere and you snowboarding. What I have to stay here. Other than dislike is thai it's long and that it's really pretty.'' people get depressed." "I don't like the cold but I like it because you get to be indoors with a lot of girls. "I'm from the westside and like all this snow. I've never been used to two feet of snow. ff "It's too much work. I have to work inside, outside and then go home and shovel snow. But it looks nice though." Page 10 Observer'siBt u U3 Oil c o o, CO • C/31 Oil a • c u c. o, S3 X c« 3 a, £ CO U c o o CO w.

Josh Cooley/Obsever The Fenix gets funked up by Josh Cooley Staff reporter George 'Dr. Funkenstein'. Clinton and the P-Funk All Stars blew the roof off the Fenix Underground last Sun­ day night with a potent display of musical talent. With their unique style of grooves and vocals, the P-Funk sent the Fenix crowd into dance madness for five funklicious hours. The show was surprisingly loud, but no one seemed to be protesting. In fact, there was much celebration, as marijuana smoking was prevalent among the P-Funk fans. The P-Funk used three synthesiz­ ers, two bass guitars, three electric guitars, a trombone, a trumpet, an alto saxophone, and five vocalists. With the combination and number of musical tools these guys used, it may seem like they'd be cluttered and messy. That wasn't the case. With the multiple instrument interaction, P- Funk produced a richly complex sound. Clinton was like a maestro on stage, directing the 'bomb' with slight nods of his head and waves of his hands. Their beats, rhythms, tempos, har­ monies, melodies and riffs were envel­ oped with an immaculate Clinton/funk texture. They created a positive en­ ergy that made the audience 'geek out' on their feet the shyest person in the club wouldn't have been able to resist dancing. Funkadelic, another band produced by Clinton, played for about an hour when P-Funk went backstage to relax and get re-energized. While P-Funk was mora groove- oriented and song driven, Funkadelic was more heavily guitar-oriented with lots of solos and instrumental pieces.. Funkadelic was really Hendrix-esque, as was apparent by their half-hour long, eardrum pounding, pure power- guitar compilations. P-Funk, formerly the '70s alterna­ tive music group 'Parliament,' is headed by the ringleader, the referee, and the grand poobah of funk, George Clinton. The musical genre, "funk," was initiated by Clinton with Parlia­ ment. P-Funk's sound is hard to de­ scribe: they are a combination of soul, jazz, blues, and rock, but none of these styles are extremely salient within their songs. Clinton once described his band as being like The Tempta­ tions on acid, but that is something we'll never know.

Time for the networks to shell out their new fall line-up of shows, all with basically the same story line and the same, dry, washed-up humor, Personally, I've had enough of it. Last Tuesday night, however, I got to play critic for the National Broad­ cast Society's own show, "Central Underground," and I had a blast. If you are yearning for some high stakes action and award winning drama, well, you won't find it here. You will, however, find a group of twisted individuals who put on this little soiree for people on campus to watch. The show is one part "Almost Live" and one part crazy. It is a whirl­ ing dervish of witty humor and over the edge skits which makes this show one of the best kept secrets this side of the Mississippi. The show is hosted by Ken McMillen, who handles his mono­ logue like an up-and-coming Jay Leno, but with more heart. The show got its start almost a year ago, but never really took off. It wasn't until last spring break that the NBS gang, with the help of adviser Robert Fordan, put their heads to­ gether and came up with the hilarious production Central Underground. To find out how the show is put together, I visited the set in Bouillon Hall to find the answer. What I found was utter, but managed, chaos. I first had the opportunity to speak with'one of the producers, Greg Fitzgerald, who gave me a quick run down on how the team gets the show together. "For each episode, once every three weeks, we pick a producer and then establish a crew line-up." Fitzgerald said. "We then have a brainstorming meeting to find out what we want to do on the show. A lot of the time, the producer has a pretty good idea." •k- llPPy — ' - _ Central Underground airs at 11p.m. on Channel 2. Garrett Grobler/Observer McMillen adds that it does take a while to get the show set up and ready to go. "On the shoot day we show up around 5 p.m. and get everything ready and at around 7 p.m. we are ready to roll," McMillen said. "We try to get musical guests at times, bands that are well known around Central or that unusual guest that could help the show. We are pretty organized and we have a lot of fun doing the show.

Or meet and ask "Simpsons" creator Matt Groening what inspired him to create the hit prime-time animated cartoon family from the comfort of the CWU cam­ pus? This was made possible last Thurs­ day in room 152 in the library by the Instructional Media Center. The IMC was responsible for car­ rying one of the Museum of Television and Radio's live seminars on Creating Prime Time Comedy featuring mem­ bers of the staff and creative team be­ hind 'The Simpsons." Students were connected via satelite to the museum's Los Angeles, branch, and treated to an interview session hosted by Robert Bascha. Throughout the broadcast, students from the different connected colleges were encouraged to call in with their questions for 'The Simpsons" staff. But how did the IMC make this linkup possible? "With the latest technology, we can take a standard television signal that we used to use.. . and now we can, through digital technolgies, break it down into 28 lanes," William Craig, director of the IMC said. He futher explained that the lanes can be used to carry television signals, teleconferencing, and even internet lines to link CWU to its branch cam­ puses and other sources. "It's really the tip of the iceberg," Craig said. Nowhere is this new technology more evident than in CWU's distance education program. This program, based right now in only one room on campus, allows stu­ dents from the Wenatchee Valley Community College branch campus to attend classes taught by faculty in Ellensburg, and vice versa. "It gives access to placebound stu­ dents," Craig said. In short, a signal consisting of digital microwaves is beamed from the CWU Library classroom to a carrier, and then sent to the receiving branch campus. Though the,program itself is only two years old, the IMC has hopes of expanding distance learning to other buildings on campus such as the new Science building, the renovated Black Half, and Barge Hall. Also on the agenda are links to other CWU branch campuses such as in Moses Lake and Sea-Tac. But the IMC is more than just dis­ tance learning and seminar linkups. It contains a large film and videotape li- raphy, and video production services brary of instructional films students to those on campus. see in class. The IMC also provides technical It houses Ellensburg Community support and equipment to faculty and Television as well as graphics, photog- students. • a • B • m li) V "fifeo.+yoofc Head!.

"I am disappointed how the season ended, but I am glad I got to share this season with my family ," senior Brett Allen said referring to the team. Senior quarterback Fournier stepped in for sophomore Casey Jacox late in the second quarter, guiding the 'Cats, to six consecutive scores. Fournier completed 19 of 29 passes for 335 yards and threw a career High five touchdowns. With starters Kenny Russaw, Josh Woodard, Tony Frank and Dan Murphy sitting on the bench for the entire first quarter and much of the second, Central's offense was as cold as ice and couldn't get started, gain­ ing only 11 yards in the first 26 min- ' utesofplay. Eastern Oregon scored the lone touchdown of the first quarter on a 12- yard pass play and took an early 7-0 lead. Despite the score, the defense held its own. Junior Rico Brown had an interception, which stopped a possible scoring opportunity for the Mountain­ eers. Freshman John Gardner looked like a man possessed, getting eight tackles. Down 14-0 with 3:42 left in the half, Fournier replaced a struggling Jacox and Woodard and Russaw left the bench and entered the game as wide receivers to help put the Wildcats on the board.

On the next play, an injured Murphy came in for his only play of the game and made it count by scor­ ing a one-yard touchdown. Although senior kicker/punter Greg Stoller missed the extra point, Central cut the lead to 14-6 with 28 seconds left in the half. Going into half-time Central had only 87 total yards, but had momen­ tum. With a hot quarterback at the helm, Central broke loose in the second half, scoring almost at will. On the first play from the line of scrimmage, sophomore wide receiver Josh Sarpy took the ball on the reverse through the air when Fournier threw a 25-yard touchdown strike to Sarpy with 11:27 left in the game. Central Iniguez and Mike Talamaivo sacked jumped out to a 28-14 lead after "do the Mountaineer quarterback,.forcing them to punt two plays later.

Page 14 Ofc&fver M & over for volleyball by Darci Grimes Staff reporter Central's varsity volleyball team fell short in the playoffs when they lost three matches to Western, 15-7,15-2, 15-13 in Bellingham Thursday. The Wildcats had a week to prepare for the match against the Vikings af­ ter their victory over Simon Fraser. The team met in groups of two to dis­ cuss and mentally prepare for the weekend's playoff game, but it was not enough for the Wildcats. Western drew a large game crowd. Admission was free to the public, and both sides of Carver gymnasium were full of hecklers in support of the Vi­ kings. "Their crowd helped motivate them," coach Mario Andaya said. "They got into it." In the past. Central has taken West­ ern out of the playoffs, but the Vikings were ready for revenge. 'They've been looking for this the last couple of years," Andaya said. Central's hitting percentage was only 7.9 percent and they committed 27 errors. "We had more hitting errors than kills," Carney said. Senior Tracy Harmon had a great game and played well in the last game of her volleyball career at Central. She had 30 assists, two service aces and one block. Junior Mary Chi also played well with seven kills against Western. "Mary Chi made a great effort," Carney said. "She goes all out and puts her heart into it." .. - c v-::7 . :•' ••• i Central v. Simon Frosier: Western was defeated Saturday by Lewis-Clark State in the regional championships. The season is officially over for the Wildcats, but three players have earned first team all-conference hon­ ors. Harmon, Chi, and Carney were named to the Pacific Northwest Ath­ letic Conference all-star volleyball team. Chi ranks fifth in the PNWAC for kills and second for digs. Carney ranks sixth in both kills and digs. Senior Megan Prkut and freshman Leslie Anderson were given honor­ able mention to the team. Prkut ended the season with an average of 2.59 kills and had 58 blocks. Ander­ son holds the league's second place spot with a season record of 116 blocks including 26 on her own. "As a freshman, that is a huge ac- complishment," Andaya said of Anderson. The season may be over, but play­ ers will continue to practice until the 1997 season begins. "This season was better than what I expected," Carney said. "I hate that it is over." "I'm really happy with the sea­ son," Andaya said. "I had a lot of fun." MNDtR CHIROPRACTIC CENTER DR.

Dawg # does it again by Nora-Marie Myers Staff reporter The Dawg # successfully defended their flag football title, 18-13, in a squeaker over Da' Bomb Squad last week. The team finished the season 10-0, extending their winning streak to 20 games dating back to last year. Quarterback Mike Walker led the Dawg # to the first score of the game on a pass play to Jeff Tiedeman. Af­ ter the ensuing extra point was missed, the Dawg # led 6-0. "Walker is a great quarterback," team captain Bob Bennetson said. Despite being sacked four times in the first half, Da' Bomb Squad's quarterback David Whitley moved the squad down field and connected with Sean Lewis for a touchdown. The Squad managed to convert their extra point and took the 7-6 lead into halftime. To start off the second half, Da' Bomb Squad drove 70 yards in nine plays, scoring on a pass from Whitley to Antoine Butches. After the extra point failed, the Squad led 13-6. "We played hard and came to­ gether as a team," Butches said. The Dawg # was not through, and they showed why they have a 20 game winning streak. Walker showed poise and confidence as he drove his team down the field and hit Adam Riehl for a touchdown. The extra point was batted down, so the Dawg # still trailed 12-13. The Dawg# defense shut down Da' Bomb Squad offense and forced them to punt. Dan Hanken caught the punt, sped up the field, cut back and ended up in the end zone for 6. The Dawg# took back the lead, 18-13 with two minutes left in the championship. "I had a huge hole up the middle and saw a seam." Hanken said, "The next thing I knew, I was in the end zone." With one last shot at the victory, Da' Bomb Squad had trouble moving the ball, and failed to convert a crucial fourth down. The Dawg # screamed with enjoy­ ment as they earned their second con­ secutive flag football championship. "We dedicated this season to Gerry Fierling," Bennetson said. "Everyone, on our team is an ath­ letic player," Hanken said. "Through­ out the year, every player on the team scored at least one touchdown."

"All of these people were ahead of me, and all of these people were passing me. I am happy with my time, but I wish I had a chance to come back next year." Other national competitors for the 'Cats included junior David Sobolewski (105th, 26:34), sopho­ more Brad Hawkins (145th, 26:54), sophomore Donovan Russell (148th, 26:55), junior Rusty Miller (262nd, 28:28) and freshman John Moir (285th, 29:05).

After a tough first half the Central men's basketball team went on to suf­ fer a defeat at the hands of the Seattle Pacific Falcons. The 10th ranked Fal­ cons capitalized on the 22 turnovers committed by the Wildcats, winning 70-53. With two minutes left in the first half the Wildcats were down by only four, until two quick turnovers re­ sulted in an 11 point deficit at half- time. Coach Greg Sparling said the team suffered from the setback because of limitations placed by the new NCAA rules. "A lot of new faces combined with a shorter practice time and a lack of scrimmages definitely hurt us," Sparling said. The Wildcats were led in scoring by Grady Fallon who finished with 16 points. No other player scored more than six. The poor execution on offense didn't neccesarily negate the defensive performance. The 'Cats held a high powered Falcon attack to 42 percent shooting from the field. Assistant coach Mike Burns said the turnovers were one of many prob­ lems that need to be corrected. "Very poor offensive execution led to too many turnovers," Burns said. "The good news is while the effort wasn't outstanding it was good, and all the mistakes, while numerous, are cor­ rectable." • - , . Leading scorers for Seattle Pacific were Brady Deal with 15 points, Josh Beherens with 14, and Dan Selby with 12. According to forward Chris Mosely the loss was only a minor set­ back. The Wildcats return home to play Seattle Pacific at Nicholson Pavilion at 7 p.m. on Saturday. "If we get our offense going we will have a better chance on Saturday," Fallon said. Women's season begins with tourney by Kim Kuresman Staff reporter The regular season has yet to be­ gin, but the women's basketball team is already wiping up the court. Despite several injuries, the Wildcats crushed the Alumni team 110-69 in the annual event which took place on Saturday,- Nov. 9. With the conference about to be­ gin, Coach Nancy Katzer has only two things on her mind. "I want to make it to the playoffs and graduate the seniors," Katzer said. To reach that goal, Katzer is enlist­ ing the help of several key players, in­ cluding junior forward Wendy Rob­ erts, junior guard Becky Newman and freshman guard Becki Matsen. Ac­ cording to Katzer, these are some of the players to watch and expect great things from this season. "Roberts is one of our power for­ wards," Katzer said. " She's good with rebounds, scores well and is a good all-aroundplayer." In addition to the key players, Katzer emphasizes the team's strength in the post area. "We should compete well in the post area," Katzer said. " We have good size and quickness, including senior center Jodi Coker at 6'2" and sophomore center Molly Mickle at 6'3"." Katzer expressed cautious opti­ mism about the coming season. "We don't have all the tools we would like because we started a month late, but we will be ready for confer­ ence," Katzer said. "The team lpiows how to rurt with what they are given." For hoop fans, the excitement starts today as the Wildcats travel to Port­ land to battle Portland State and Se­ attle Pacific in a three-team tourna­ ment.
