James Norton, former chancellor of the state of Ohio Board of Re­ gents and Aims C. McGuinness, Jr., senior associate at the National Cen­ ter for Higher Education Manage­ ment Systems in Boulder, Colo., will be addressing the strengths, weak­ nesses and concerns of the CWU board and Nelson. "Like most jobs, mine also in­ cludes a performance review," Nelson said. "The consultants are going to look at my leadership skills. They want to know how I have man­ aged my responsibilities as president and if the college's mission is being fulfilled." Prior to hiring Nelson in 1992, the trustees developed an evaluation and review plan stipulating an exter­ nal review be done of the new presi­ dent during his fourth year of ser­ vice. "Central's primary responsibility is to provide a quality education that is affordable to students," Nelson said. "The board and I work together. Like a team, our effectiveness is con­ tingent upon each other fulfilling the obligations we have towards Central," he said. The board of trustees is respon­ sible for the operation of CWU. They set policies and oversee the management of funds and proper­ ties. The seven board members are ap­ pointed by the governor of Wash­ ington State for six-year terms. Norton and McGuinness will re­ port their review findings to the CWU board of trustees and the uni­ versity community by the end of spring quarter. AGB, in their home-page at www.agb.org, stated they are deter­ mined to strengthen the perfor­ mance of boards of public and pri­ vate higher education. By contributing, to effective working relationships between boards and chief executives, AGB seeks to strengthen the self-gover­ nance of higher education institu­ tions. "College and university presi­ dents have a responsibility for help­ ing the public reach the understand­ ing of the need for more effective, less encumbered presidential leader­ ship," Richard T. Ingram, AGB president, said. "But presidents cannot do the job alone. Everyone, from trustees and fac­ ulty members to legislators and com­ munity leaders, has a part to play in creating the conditions that will en­ able academic presidents to lead and colleges and universities to flour­ ish." - • Central Washington University Where will the ax fall? rnmmmiM ' -- t'/ A . 4. ..

The race is on for student government elections by Tanya Dykstra Staff reporter The ASCWU election process is in full swing and there is still time for potential candidates to enter the race. Who the final candidates are remains in the air. Names and information of candidates will be released after the fil­ ing closes on April 16. There are seven open positions: • President • Executive Vice President • Vice President for Organizations • Vice President for Academic Af­ fairs Vice President for Equity and Community Service • Vice President for Student Life and Facilities • Vice President for Political Affairs. Current ASCWU President Adam Eldridge encourages students to run. "It's easy to sit back and criticize," Eldridge said. "It's a whole new ball game to sit back and take the shots. I encourage people to both run and vote." There will also be an initiative on the ballot this election. The intiative would institute a mandatory $10 ath­ letic fee if passed intended to offset predicted athletic spending cuts. Pro­ posed changes to the ASCWU's govern­ ing constitution will also be on the ballot. Primary elections are scheduled for May 1 and General elections will be held May 8. Candidates are required to have a 2.0 cumulative G.P.A, have completed 45 credit hours, obtain 110 signatures, and pay a $20 filing fee upon return of the packet. All members of the student body who are enrolled for one credit or more are eligible to vote.

Trustees bless $183,000 entrance sign Structure is designed to improve university's recruiting appeal Trustees In a seperate vote the trustees approved the Samuelson Union Building pre- design budget. CWU administra­ tors are currently looking to renovate the SUB in the next ten years. by Tim Yeadon News editor In a three to two vote, the Board of Trustees approved $183,000 to build a CWU entrance sign on the corner of Eighth and D Streets. Described during the meeting as "monolithic" by dissenting trustee Fritz Glover, representatives of the ad­ ministration said the sign is designed to provide a boost to the school's image for first-time visitors. However, both Glover and trustee Frank Sanchez said they felt the price was too steep for one sign. Glover asked why the money could not be spent on academic priorities. Abdul Nasser, vice president of busi­ ness and financial affairs, said the $183,000 could not be spent on aca­ demic items because it is part of a $300,000 pool of capital monies desig­ nated solely for "signage" by the state legislature. According to Nasser, many first- time visitors to Ellensburg have a hard time finding Central. "If you drive on Eighth Street you could pass CWU without knowing it was there," he said. Nasser said when people give direc­ tions to the university they usually say, "once you see Domino's Pizza you know you are at.Central." "These aren't the kind of landmarks we want you to use," Nasser said. "One of the reasons students come to a uni­ versity is because of its physical looks." Nasser said sign would help im­ prove the school's image and ability to recruit students. * CENTRAL WASHINGTON UNIVERSITY The new sign will be made of brick and concrete, similar to existing signs on 8th and Walnut. The signs will also have lighting and seating. u If you drive on Eighth Street you could pass CWU without knowing it was there. —Abdul Nasser,V.P- Business Affairs

Various markings are appearing all over campus and police say some of it is gang related. "There's so much of it going on," Bill DeHaven, campus police sergeant, said. "It hasn't been directed at a specific group." Graffiti has been found on or around Bouillon, the Lan­ guage and Literature building, the SUB, the baseball dugout, the inside of Al—Monte and many other places. "We're not the only ones getting it," DeHaven said. "The city and county have both been hit." Campus police are working together with the Ellensburg police and Kittitas County sheriff departments to investigate the recent acts of graffiti. A group comprised of one officer from each department and a representative from the juvenile department is being formed to research and investigate these crimes more thoroughly. "The way we've combatted it so far is, when the ground . crews see it they immediately remove it," DeHaven said. "They clean it up and a couple of days later it's back again. That must be tough." Graffiti is considered third degree malicious mischief, with a maximum penalty of one year in jail and/or $5,000 fine. The campus police urge anyone who has knowledge of or has observed these crimes to call 963-2958. 1 Connee^i ions A FANTASTIC WAY TO START YOUR WEEK! • Sing Great Sengs • Share Your Needs • Pray for Others • Hear the Word • Come to the Lord's Table 5:00 PM EVERY SUNDAY FIRST LUTHERAN CHURCH 512 N.

Observer — News— April 10,1997 Provost candidates trimmed to six Central Underground students set up for another award winning program. Students seek channel of their own by Aimee Peterson Staff reporter Since winning national awards for "Central Underground," the National Broadcasting Society at Central is reaching for higher goals. NBS is requesting the Service Fees and Activities Committee fund a stu­ dent-run cable television channel and the necessary equipment for startup. "The idea behind the whole thing is to give students an avenue to practice and produce skills to benefit the cam­ pus and community," Greg Fitzgerald, NBS vice president, said. The broadcasting society has di­ vided its proposal into two steps. First is equipment such as cameras, editing machines and color edit monitors. "It will be the hottest equipment in the state," Kevin. Sak, NBS treasurer, said. "CWU will get major prestige if this goes through." Members of the society say their equipment is so outdated it doesn't compare to what they will use once they are out in the job market. "The equipment is so ancient," Teri Cooper, NBS president, said. "Better equipment will help us be successful after graduation." The second phase is getting their own cable access channel, KWTV. "Central Underground" now broad­ casts OYej EUonsburg Commujijty J§le-. vision (channel two). "Newswatch," the student-run news show, is also broad­ cast over the same channel. "KWTV will be on its own channel— a self contained unit," Fitzgerald said. The station would be run by stu­ dents and would show "Central Under­ ground," "Newswatch," "Wildcat Chat," and possibly new shows such as "At the Movies," "Coach's Corner," "Health Chronicles" and "CWU The­ atre Showcase." "There's absolutely no reason why we couldn't be on 24 hours a day," Sale said. "We could also show other college networks." To broadcast, the city must ask for an additional channel from the cable company. "It is part of the franchise agree­ ment between the city of Ellensburg and the cable company," Sak said. "It's not unusual for a community to have three or four access channels Ellensburg only uses one." The request for their own channel may bring many benefits to the univer­ sity as well as the community. "Wildcat Television programming will enable students to make statements about human life, and show the com­ munity how we can-working together— solve problems, serve as models on how to treat one another and show us what it means to be a human being," Cooper said in a letter to Vice President for Stu­ dent Affairs Sarah Shumate. The letter also stated (the channel is dedicated to student programming and will not be just for the students but for the general community as well. : "This is representative of all agen­ cies to come together to talk about how video could bring this campus together and bring a face to the community that has not been there," Robert Fordan, NBS adviser, said. 'That, I think is the beauty of this proposal." CWU looks for fourth provost in eight months by David Henderson Staff reporter The Central provost/vice presi­ dent search committee has nar­ rowed a field of 85 applicants to six candidates for the open position. The new vice president for aca­ demic affairs will be paid approxi­ mately $100,000 a year to work for changes and improvements in each department. The candidates in­ clude: Raymond Lou, San Jose State University Jacqueline Mitchell, University of California Jack Nelson, Temple University George Simmons, University of Idaho LydiaWingate, Kansas Uni­ versity, and Central's current in­ terim provost, David Dauwalder. To qualify for the position all candidates were required to have served as a department dean at their respective universities. Each of the candidates will be visiting Central in April where they will be interviewed by several groups including the search com­ mittee, Central students and the president's office. "Our job is to organize the cam­ pus visitation and participate in some of the interviews," Rosco Tolman, committee chair, said. The search committee is hoping the deci­ sion will be made by July 1. "When the campus visitations have been completed, then we will meet with the president and share with him our view of the six candi­ dates, but the final decision will be up to the president." According to Tolman, Ivory Nelson, CWU president, may ask the search committee to visit each of the candidate's universities to discover more about them. "In many ways, the provost is the most important position on campus because the provost is the number one advocate for academic pro­ grams," Tolman said. "The faculty and the deans look upon the provost to be our representative in the president's council. We consider it to be a very important position and we would like someone who we feel would be a strong advocate for aca­ demics." This year, Central has been with­ out a permanent provost. In Septem­ ber 1996, Gerald Stacy was appointed provost, but resigned in November due to health reasons. Since his res­ ignation, David Dauwalder has acted as interim provost. "We need to have a permanent person in this job," Tolman said. "David Dauwalder is doing a fine job as the acting interim, but it's diffi­ cult for someone to accomplish the same things when he knows in a few months he's going to be gone or potentially so." Air Force ROTC announces future pilots Seven CWU Air Force ROTC cadets will attend Flight Training upon their graduation and commission into the Air Force. The future pilots selected were: Robert Bepko, Darin Kolb, David McGourin, Joshua Spear, Kirk Palmberg, Garriri Powers and Mathew Williams. They will receive one-and-a- half years of flight training, valued at over $5 million, after which they will have a chance to fly some of the most technologically advanced aircraft in the world. DR.

April 10,1997 — News — Observer Local crisis services want to help When difficult problems or situations plague someone's life, that person may feel as thoughthey have nowhere to turn for help. But help is only a phone call away for students who encounter problems to big too solve alone. by David Henderson Staff reporter Crisis Line The people who work at Crisis Line are volunteers who help others sort out their problems. Crisis Line acts as a local 911 and much more. There are 35 volunteers composed of Central stu­ dents and local residents who work in four-hour shifts to keep the lines open 24 hours a day, 7 days a week. "We have to continue to remind people that Crisis Line is here to help them and to let them know that their call will be kept anonymous and con­ fidential," Noel Knoke, Crisis Line di­ rector, said. "Being an information source is a critical part of it we help people sort out their options. People need to know that it's OK to have a problem and that they can get help just by picking up the phone." Crisis Line receives every imaginable type of call. It acts as a struggling person's connection to the services of­ fered locally as well as at the state level. Depending on the seriousness of the call, volunteers will help callers find a solution. Sometimes peoplerjjwt.fteed to know someone is listening other times immediate action is needed. Knoke said they had a call recently from a young Central student who was pregnant and unsure of what to do. Crisis Line voluteers offered her infor­ mation and options. With her permis­ sion they called the Department of Social and Health Services and ar­ ranged for her to become part of a pro­ gram that helps young parents. Crisis Line receives an average of 70 calls per week with people expressing concerns about abortion, AIDS, alco­ hol and drug abuse, child abuse, depres­ sion, family problems, pregnancy, sexu­ ally transmitted diseases and suicide. Many of these calls come from Central students. "A young single father (a Central student) called in who had lost his job because the^pi^pai^he worked for had gone out of business," Knoke said. "He had a 3-month-old baby and he was completely destroyed at the idea of not being able to provide for his kid. So we suggested that he offer his ser­ vices to the Action Council, to help shovel snow or repair homes for seniors or people who couldn't do the work. They helped people that were worse off than he was. Once he realized that he wasn't at the bottom of the pit, that he had the energy and services to help somebody else, that helped hold him over until he got started in school and could get his feet back on the ground." Domestic Violence and Sexual Assault Program When Crisis Line is faced with a caller who is being abused either physi­ cally or sexually, they will refer that person to the Domestic Violence and Sexual Assault Program. According to Catherine Olevnik, the coordinator of the DVSA program, the Campus Po­ lice have had twice as many domestic violence and assault charges this year as compared to last. The volunteers at the DVSA pro­ gram are prepared to deal with all sides of an abuse case, 24 hours a day, seven days a week. Support groups and one- on-one counseling allow victims of abuse to come in and work towards solving the problem confidentially with .a- trained counselor. Thd state funded program sees around 3,000 cli­ ents a year, who are normally individu­ als between 18 and 30-years-old. The majority of these are Central students. "We have Central students who come to us with harassment issues," Olevnik said. "Stuff like gay bashing or iust a dating relationship where once it's over, one person won't accept no for an answer." Many times when a dating relation­ ship ends, domestic violence or harass­ ment problems can escalate. The DVSA program helps students work through traumatic break-ups and, if needed, provide them with an anti-harassment or protection order. Most people come to the program for help because they are worried about their spouse becoming physically or sexually abusive towards them or their children. "The other day I had a dad call who was terrified that his daughter was go­ ing to return to an abusive boyfriend," Olevnik, said. "He wanted me to help him keep her from going back to him. 'Well,' I said, 'I can't, but here are the steps you need to take in order to help her and let her know you still care about her.' Battered women go back an average of eleven times before they fi­ nally leave." wmm wmm 11 Staff i : * - - areas or cooperation be - i «- • -% • jl if i.i lllWilli « ' * M A * " / !• L w t ' ¥mm mmrnmmm OtiLim Women •ej'or Men JMMMM MMMM* M MMK mmm 'tfs/M&V&r mmm •amiw*. ymMSEmm icks on ete? -Mm-.

Observer — News — April 10,1997 5 "Since before the dawn of history, we humans have sought to understand our origins, and the nature and origin of our universe. As science has provided better understand- mgTand we have outgrown many of our fears, some of the most tantalizing questions we ask today involve the processbywhich life began, and whether it began on earth or elsewhere—once or many times." Mars Could life exist on the red planet ? The chance to answer the question of whether or not we are alone in our solar system has finally become a real­ ity. On Dec. 4, 1996, the Mars Path­ finder was launched by NASA with the objective of surveying the Martian en­ vironment for signs of foSsilfzed life. The possibility of proving the exist- is a good chance that the Mars Path­ finder Mission will be successful in finding proof of life previously existing on Mars. "There's been a real change in the perception of where life exists on Earth," Df. Matthew Golembek, Project Scientist for the Mars Pathfinder Mis- ence of fossilized life on Mars became sion, said. "Life is everywhere on Earth feasible about nine months ago when that liquid water can be found. It's — Mike McCormack, Executive Director of the Institute for Science and Society 0 several dozen meteorites were found in Antarctica - one contains microscopic structures that appear to resemble fos­ silized life - and dated 3.6 to 4.6 billion years old. Planetary astronomers believe a few of these came from Mars. Scien­ tists have been able to prove that there was standing water on the A mlniltne surface of Mars when life was forming on Earth around 3.9 billion Snlnutes years ago. Since water is a ma­ jor require­ ment for life, there The Mars Pathfinder will touch down on Mars July 4,1997.

Or­ ganisms that never see the light of day that are living off of (sulfur dioxide) hot springs." Golembek spoke in Hertz Hall last Friday on the NASA Mars Pathfinder mission and what it will potentially ac­ complish. Golembek, along with other project scientists, has been working at the Jet Propulsion Laboratory at the California Institute of Technology to develop the different components of the Pathfinder. The NASA space craft is currently about 70 million kilometers from Earth and is expected to land on the surface of Mars on the fourth of July. The Pathfinder was propelled into space Jy a .Delta II rocket, which falls away from the craft in two pieces after firing. Be­ cause the earth is con­ stantly rotating, Golembek and his /Tv^ A*— 4 minutes • 3 minutes • 2 minutes 1100 seconds • 32 seconds team-had-to calculate the launch time of the Pathfinder down to the second to make sure that the spacecraft was shot out of the earth's atmosphere on track with its landing site on Mars. When the space craft finally enters the atmosphere of Mars, it will take it about four minutes to reach the land­ ing site, which is a relatively smooth section of the Martian Landscape, simi­ lar to Moses Lake. Since the atmo­ sphere on Mars is considerably thinner than it is on Earth, the Pathfinder will not be able to slow to a sufficient land­ ing speed. To remedy this problem, Golembek and colleges have equipped the Pathfinder with solid thrust rockets and inflatable airbags which will inflate around the body of the lander upon entry. When the pathfinder hits the surface of Mars, it will bounce the height of a ten—story building and con­ tinue bouncing until it comes to rest on Martian soil. Once the Pathfinder has landed, the airbags will deflate and the lander will turn itself upright and fold out to ex­ pose it's solar panels. During the day, solar cells will collect energy, charging up the lander's batteries, enabling it to run both night and day. Once the lander has become charged, a six- wheeled micro-rover named Sojournor will begin exploring the Martian land­ scape. This will enable planetary scien­ tists to study the geology of Mars and identify the mineral composition and nature of rocks the micro-rover exam­ ines. From Earth, Golembek and his team will send the rover the coordinates of the places they wish to explore. The information and images they receive back from the lander and the rover will 4 seconds Wtk' be close to one hour old because of the distance between the planets.. "The Pathfinder is a rock mission," Golembek said. "You may say that rocks are dull and uninteresting, but to geologists, rocks are amazingly interest­ ing things because by looking at them and identifying the minerals in them, we can uniquely tell how they formed and the environment in which they formed. Once on the surface of Mars, we have a lander with an imager which will help us to determine where the rovfer will go." The purpose of the mission is to study geology and weather systems on Mars and determine whether or not Mars supported life in the past. NASA will be sending up subsequent missions in the future to make sure this objective is completed. Currently, there are plans to launch the Mars Surveyor in 1998 and other craft in 2001,2003, and 2005 which could have the ability to return to Earth from Mars.

April 10,1997 — Editorial — Observer Student trustee pointless You may have seen the multi-colored .flyers around campus, asking you to support the Student Trustee Bill in the state legislature, Senate Bill 5517, The bill would have the governor appoint a student trustee to each of the public universities. This is touted as a Very Good Thing, giving students "a voice and a vote" on Centra!* Board of Trustees. A voice and a vote. Wonderful. But tell me what our student leaders, the prime candidates for trusteeship, say and do with that vote. It has been difficult to pin down what the various student boards and committees have achieved over the last few years. So it's difficult to measure what their reaction as trustees would have been to the technology fee, or the health and counseling fee hike. What would their input have been when the trustees voted to enforce the banning of alcohol advertising? Would they have objected "The students of this university have a vital interest in finding the cheapest beer?" What could a student say during closed-door executive sessions, where confidential personnel and legal matters are discussed? Could the board of trustees trust that student trustee not to go around campus, saying "I know something you don't know?" What if that sensitive personnel issue involved a professor or administrator to which the student trustee had a subordinate relationship? A student trustee, according to the language of the bill, would replace one outgoing trustee, and those are some large shoes to fill. Ask yourself if a student trustee could match Frank Sanchez's connections to Boeing, or Fritz Glover's connections to this community, or Ron Dotzauer's generos­ ity. Before he retired from the board in November, he gave $3,000 to the university's foundation. What can a student on the BOT be but an ornament, a token of how progressive this state is? Senate Bill 5517 is just a chance for some resume-padding malcontent to say he was a university trustee at his or her next job interview.

We talk about Pat, we share our feel­ ings and they theirs. This dialogue is good for us and for those who were close to Pat. Quite often we are asked how we managed to make it through the funeral and how we are dealing with Pat's death. We felt you, too, may have the same questions. We wanted to share with you in part, in hopes that you, too, may find some understanding. At first we were in shock, numb, and running on automatic pilot. On the day of the funeral, it was excruciating to say good-bye to Patrick. But the one thing that was in my mind was that I wanted everyone to have a gift from Pat. In our faith, the bread and wine are one with God, as Pat now is. By being a Eucharist minister at Pat's funeral ser­ vice, I felt as though I was giving a part of Pat to each I served. It gave me strength and continues to help in my healing. As to how we're managing, some days we are very angry at Pat. Angry at him for making a poor choice that night and because we will not be able to share in his tomorrows. Some days there is guilt. How many times did we sit at the kitchen table and talk about consequences of choice, both good and bad? There are times when our hearts ache and there are tears and frustration. Then there are days when we feel that Patrick is close to us. These are the days we hold on to. As time passes, the shock wears off, acceptance creeps in and the pain dulls, but the memories, the laughter and smiles will be with us forever. Last night, Mike, Wendy and I were at a gathering which Patrick would nor­ mally have been a part of. As we were leaving, we each shared that we envi­ sioned Pat being there in some silly way or another. That is the way it should be and will be throughout the rest of our lives. We think of you often and hope you are taking care of each other. We are truly thankful for your support. And as we would encourage Pat to ask questions, we are grateful to those who need to know and share in our experi­ ence. We wish you well in your studies. And we hope in some small way that Patrick will be with you in your jour­ neys through life. Sincerely, Pam and Mike Cochran -Editor's Note: Central freshman Patrick Cochran was killed along with fellow student Philip Young in an auto accident near Naches last November. Student athlete speaks out against cuts To the Editor: Athletes at Central are scrambling to save programs, hopefully the admin­ istration will do the same thing, but currently this does not seem to be the case. At Saturday's basketball game I asked Adam Eldridge (student body president) what programs were going to be cut and he would not give his opin­ ion. Well, Adam, I am asking again, where do you stand? Is this discussing the issue? Sarah Shumate stated in the Yakima Herald-Republic, "What I'm trying to get to happen is the kind of discussion on this campus that we've never had before about athletics and where it fits into what we're trying to do with student learning." Does this mean that wherv asked a-point blank question, concerning cuts, the people responsible say they will state it in two weeks? According to Central's mission statement: "Illuminating the seal of Central Washington University the words Docendo Discimus, 'by teaching we learn,' remain today, as in the past, the cornerstone of the univerity's mis­ sion." Apparently, Keith Champagne forgot to read this when he stated the mission of Central athletics: "I don't know if it's (athletics) mission-at this point, as we move into the modern era of intercollegiate athletics-to be pre­ paring coaches." Since he is not really sure though, perhaps we should ask Shumate. According to Shumate's of­ fice, the purpose is "to provide oppor­ tunities for students to compete on the • intercollegiate level and also provide entertainment for the student body." That should be a favorable feature in the eyes of Central parents. Your chil­ dren should compete at Central so they can entertain the studnet body, but do not expect them to learn anything in the process. Because at Central that simply is not our goal after all, this the the "modern era." Luckily, college athletics can help you prepare for life after college, and our coaches here at Central realize this. I can speak from experience since I con­ tinued my wrestling career at this col­ lege to learn more about my sport and become a better coach. I guess the things I learned entertaining the stu- See ATHLETE/Page 7
Observer — Op-Ed — April 10,1997 ATHLETE: Sex or money, what's the issue? from Page 6 dent body were merely a bonus. What is the issue, money or gender equity? If it is money, has the admin­ istration challenged coaches to fund raise? If it has, has it been supportive? Finally, if a sport is self supporting will it still be cut? As for gender equity, last year Central gave $29,677 in scholar­ ships and tuition waivers to men, and $117,615 for women. Is this gender equity? Many athletes and supporters want the answers to these quesitons. Finally, is the administration being good stewards of our money? Keith Champagne thinks so: "There are people who think Gary (Frderick, the athletic director) is sitting on a safe of money, and I think we have to elimi­ nate that, let people know exactly where it is." Mr. Champagne, who was sitting on the $10,000 wasted on searching for a new men's basketball coach, and how much is being spent searching for a new football coach? In closing I would like to mention that out of a total sports budget of $943,744, 67 percent, or $620,691, went to the administration. My sport, wrestling, took 2 percent, $16,542. If the administration is really interested in saving money the answer does not lie in cutting sports. Sincerely, Rusty Jordan self no favor by trying to justify his sloppy journalism the following week. One could also speculate as to why the Theatre and KCAT articles were printed back to back, but I'll avoid that issue. Finally, I must respond to the un­ professional review by Jo Lynn Draper of Shakespeare's Comedy of Errors. Why did the Observer send someone who knows nothing of Shakespeare or theatre to cover this story? She could not even follow the simple plot of the story. She could not substantiate her opinions, and used amateurish lan­ guage such as "I was ready to die of boredom." She even went so far as to criticize a playwright who has survived for four centuries and counting. I won­ der if perhaps the Observer was trying to sabotage*heTheatre departineat*to- prove that their facts concerning the budget were not completely wrong. I sincerely hope none of you are ex­ pecting to get jobs in journalism (and if you should, may God save us all). I realize that this letter would have a bet­ ter chance of being printed if I had used profanity, since you seem to have devel­ oped a recent affinity for printing such language to attract readers, but I have graciously refrained. Please strive for quality in your publication, if not for your own sake, then for your readers. Thank you. Eric Flak. And a little more flak To the Editor: I am writing to congratulate you for your idea to allow first-grade students to write the cinema and theatre reviews in the Observer. It was joyful to read how your reviewer on "Marvin's Room" was infatuated by Leonardo DiCaprio, but did not quite like the plot (we cannot expect six-year-olds to enjoy an award winner script as they would enjoy "Space Jam.") This week, your generosity allowed another first- grader to sign a review of an outstand­ ing production of Shakespeare's "Com­ edy of Errors" as Assistant Scene Edi­ tor, which I found very cute. Not less cute was the fact that she enjoyed the fighting scenes, but was otherwise bored by an "unbelievable" plot. Per­ haps the Observer should have pro­ vided her with more candy. I think, however, that the Observer should include an actual arts review sec­ tion, so university students would also have the opportunity to write critical articles about the arts. They would probably be quite more rigorous. Javier Martinez de Velasco A iittle flak? To the editor: For many years, now, I have en­ dured the lack of quality of your pub­ lication. In the past few months, how­ ever, it has become nearly unbearable. Spelling and grammar errors are to be expected from time to time, but readers are able to spot several in every issue. If there is not enough time for the staff of the Observer to check for these errors, at least make sure the head­ lines are spelled correctly (there are two i • « .S)\ p s in support ). But I am not writing this letter to sound like a high-school English teacher. My main concern is ot some poor judgment and a generally unpro­ fessional tone on the part of the news­ paper staff. I begin with the February 27 is­ sue in which you printed a letter speak­ ing against Black History Month. This letter served no purpose but to strike fear into the hearts of your readers. Big city newspapers must receive hundreds of letters just like this one every day, but they don't print them. Ignorant and simply stupid people are swarming all around us. Anyone who does not already know this is part of the problem, and yet your staff chose to propagate the very act of terrorism which sparked the forum which you conveniently wrote about the following week. In the February 20 issue, an ar­ ticle about the Theatre Arts budget and two articles about KCAT took prece­ dence over an story of a woman who was held at knifepoint on campus!

Candidates should start aking babies hands April 17. shaking babies and kissing A] | May 7 is the night to start stuffing the ballot box. When you're going to run for office... Election time for the ASCWU Board of Directors is underway and many are preparing for the rugged road of campaigning. According to John Drinkwater, di­ rector of Campus Life, 22 people have shown interest in the election by pick­ ing up election packets that provide information including the election process, violations and fines, and brief descriptions of the seven BOD posi­ tions. These 22 people considering run­ ning for office cannot be shy or re­ served. To win an election, a candidate must be outgoing, be well known or make themselves well known, and have a general concern for the well-being of the student body. "The most votes can come from knowing a lot of people," Drinkwater said. "You could either call that popu­ larity or hard campaigning." There are various ways for students to become well known. One way is by shaking hands and kissing babies to get directly in the community. According to Butch Oxendine, editor of a book called, "So You Want To Be President...How To Get Elected On What does it take to get your name spread around campus? , "Get something - • • ' catchy, however silly it may be." Your Campus," while campaign­ ing, the current student body presi­ dent of Texas A&M visited 125 of the 600 student organizations in a two week period. The rest of the 600 organizations were visited by people on the campaign staff. "In general, all politics are per­ sonal, and people like to be asked for their vote," Robert Jacobs, political science professor said. "The more personal contact with voters a candidate gets, the better they'll do." Another way to become a well known candidate is through the use of posters. "Candidates should pass out mass quantities of flyers with their pictures on them and their name in big bold print," Rick Vogler, ASCWU executive vice president, said. A person running for office should be concerned with what students care Todd Schaefer about and the is­ sues that they face. Vogler finds that some of the issues facing stu­ dents are dealing with the RPZ zones, relating to student commit­ tees and under­ standing th'" : .di­ versity adminis­ tration. Another as­ pect of winning an election is get­ ting students out to vote. Campus Life will promote the election through large posters and the Observer. The largest contingent of promotion about the election comes from the can­ didates themselves with their posters and campaigns, Drinkwater said. Todd Schaefer, an assistant profes­ sor of political science, said that stu­ dents should have a way to remember the candidates name. Shaeffer recalled a PBS special where a local election leader named Turpin used the phrase "Turpin time" for people to remember his name. "Get an issue," Schaefer said, "oth­ erwise get something catchy, however silly it may be." Some people, especially in state, local and national government elec­ tions find personal attacks and mud- slinging are ways to win votes, but this isn't the case at the university level. "Mudslinging is never the best way to go," Oxendine said. "It makes both parties look bad." Oxendine said in the long run pwople who don't use mudslinging will come out on top. A person should not run for student government because of the way it will look on a resume or for the status they might gain. "If you're running for a resume, it's way too much work." Vogler said. "You can't look at it as just a job because students will see right through you." "It's wrong to run so that you can get free tickets to events and^mes, meet dignitaries and celebritiesj^ho come to campus, and get dates because you're the big cheese on campus," Oxendine said. "But if you run for office because you care about helping students solve problems and making their college experience better, then you can win and feel proud that you're giv­ ing something back to the university you love."

"Career Quest is a great opportunity to investigate qualifications common to most employers and find out how they evaluate candidates and their ap­ plications," Maxine Herbert-Hill, assis­ tant director of Career Development Services, said. Career Quest is Central's career fair, an opportunity for students to meet with employers and organizations who are interested in Central students. This year, Career Quest will be from 10 a.m. to 4 p.m., April 16 in the SUB Theater and Ballroom. "Career Quest isn't just for gradu­ ates, it's for underclassmen as well who are undecided about their major be­ cause they can see what majors get you what job,." Erin Drebis, Career Quest intern, said. Over 70 employers will attend Ca­ reer Quest. "Employers are pretty serious about Central students considering they dedi­ cate a whole business day to come here," Herbert-Hill, said. The office of Career Development Services is holding a workshop to help students prepare for Career Quest called "Making the Most of Career Fairs." The workshop will be held twice noon to 1 p.m. in SUB 105, and 3 p.m. to 4 p.m. in the Yakama room on April 11. A new aspect this year will be mock interviews preceeding Career Quest. This will serve as an opportunity for students to brush up their interviewing abilities. To participate in a mock interview, students should sign up for a time at the Career Quest check-in table. The in­ terviews will take place from 7 p.m. to 9 p.m. in the SUB Theatre. Herbert-Hill urges seniors or gradu­ ates who are going to be interviewed to dress professionally and come with personal cards and resumes. Under­ graduates should dress in anything better than "grubs." For more information call Career Development Services at 963-1921. Workshop demonstrates operatic talents A mosaic of opera scenes will flow through Hertz Hall on April 12 and 13. Favorite opera scenes from such shows as "Madame Butter­ fly ""Hansel and Gretel," "Cosi fan Tutte" and "Lamke" can be seen and heard at Central's Opera Workshop. The concert is free and open to the public. It will take place at 8 p.m. April 12 and 3 p.m. April 13. For more information call 963-1816.

Artist describes life through art Balance found between Arlene Jimenez/Observer : •Xy.'- - ' by Phil Deutsch Staff reporter During the month of April, stu­ dents can view "art" through the eyes of Jonas Haskins. Haskins, who recently graduated from Central with a degree in art, is displaying pieces he has worked on over the last year in the ADA Affairs office in Bouillon Hall. However, Haskins' work is no stranger to being publicly displayed. He has had two other shows, one on a public access channel in Seattle, and another at the Salon Fenix in down­ town Ellensburg. Haskins has been painting for about three years, but his work also showcases his love of photography. "I like them both," Haskins said. "I was more into photography at first, but painting balances it out. They bal­ ance each other out." Haskins' work describes life experi­ ences not only of himself, but of people in general. One specific painting tells a story with the use of clowns. "The clowns represent the masks that people wear," he said. "It's like people have two faces, you can't see what's really underneath. What you see is only visible on the surface." The artwork itself may take on many different meanings, depending on the individual viewer. But this is the beauty of Haskins' creations, each per­ son may see something totally differ­ ent. "I really enjoyed the different color contrasts used in the paintings," senior education major Dave Alwert said. "Each piece made me stop and think about the message the artist was trying to send." Perhaps the greatest gratification an artist can receive is not money or no­ toriety, but seeing the finished work Central awards ah students Spring is showering down a : variety of artwork from Central students. Sarah Spurgeon Art Gallery is hosting paintings, sculptures, photographs and drawings from various students.: ' An independent artist judged student's artwork awarding for Best of Show, Special Merit, Merit and Hon­ orable Mention awards. Maia Chachova won Best of Show for her oil painting "To Master: In gratitude for a. Lovna Libert won Special Merit for her oil painting 'Ves­ sel of Indecision." The student art exhibit will displayed 8, a.m. to 5 p.m. through April 18. Ryan Kothenbeutel/Observer completed and showcased for others to see. "I'm not concerned with money," Haskins said. "If someone wants to buy it, then, that's cool. "I am excited my work is being displayed. Anywhere I can get exposure, I'll do it. If you're going to paint, why not show it?" This is the first quarter the ADA Affairs office has displayed a student's artwork. "We put requests in to the art de­ partment since fall quarter, but just re­ cently they displayed some work," of­ fice supervisor Tina Kessie said. "We are excited this is happening, and we would like to see more of it." The talents of Haskins are not lim­ ited to painting and photography. He is also a member of the band The Cat Ion, which released its first single last summer. When he is not painting or shoot­ ing pictures, yo.u can see him and the band playing at the Elks Club on April 17. 'We just put out a single last sum­ mer, and the CD should be out by this summer," Haskins said. "We would like to eventually open up our own record label." NEED HELP? With an unplannedpregnancy.

Three separate committees pro­ posed possible solutions to the lack of sufficient funds to adequately support Central's broad-based sports program. Of the three, only the one organized by the ASCWU Board of Directors be­ lieved that Central must cut individual sports for the betterment of the whole program. The committee, made up of four students, four athletes and a BOD member, determined that to succeed in NCAA division II, Central would need to sacrifice baseball, wrestling and men's and women's cross country. "Virtually every program in the Northwest is making similar moves, and if we don't move with them, we will be left behind," BOD President and chair of the ASCWU Student Athletics Committee Adam Eldridge said. The committee chose these sports based on criteria regarding the tradi­ tion of the sport, the funds necessary to support the sport at the NCAA level, the amount of availiable regional com­ petition and the effects of cutting sports on the students, faculty and alumni. "None of us believed that this was necessarily a 'good' decision, but it is the best solution to a problem created because of less than ideal conditions," the members of the committee wrote in their proposal. Two other committees, CWU's Athletic Committee, which advises ath­ letic director Gary Fredrick, and a stu- dent-athlete committee made up of rep­ resentatives from each of Central's athletic programs, also sent pro­ posals. The two proposals each ask that no sports be cut, and that the univer­ sity adopts a $10-12 fee per quarter per stu­ dent. The student-ath- lete cQiomittee spearheaded a peg tition to get th| athletic fee on the\ May 8 ballot. Currently, the pe­ tition of around 1,000 signa­ tures is being verified an will likely by approved and put in the proper will be made until after May 8, but Vice terms for the ballot.

"Even though students Eldridge said it was a matter of pay this much into the pro- more money or fewer sports. M . gram, they are still charged admission to the games. No final decision llustration by David Dick/Obseiver If we want our athletic program to have top quality programs, then we will have to provide equivalent funding to that of our competition," Eldridge said. "If we can't provide as much money, then we need to look at eliminating some of the sports pulling from the resources." Bill Owen, chair of CWU's Ath­ letic Committee, disagrees saying Central sports were created to offer a great opportunity for students to take part in school activities, not to be an exclusionary function where only an elite few get to partake so that Central can be highly competi­ tive. Neither Eldridge nor Cham­ pagne want to see Central athletics have losing seasons. "If we have a program, let's have it be the best," Champagne said. "Let's cut down to have the best programs." i Basketball team among eight best in national tournament Willie Thomas shows off his hang time in Tulsa. by Brett Allen Asst. Sports Editor The men's hoop team is back in Ellensburg after journeying south to represent Central at the national tour­ nament in Tulsa, Okla. The 'Cats did the school proud, winning two games, and earning a spot in the "elite eight," before losing their quarterfinal game to Cumberland Uni­ versity of Kentucky. The loss brought an end to an excit­ ing and successful season that saw the team clinch a league championship and earn a berth to nationals. The 'Cats opened up the tourney against fifth-ranked Incarnate Word of Texas. The game was a fierce battle from start to finish. Central led by seven at the half and held on to eventually win the game by just three points. Senior star Willie Thomas led the 'Cats with 27 points and 12 rebounds. The victory put the team in the sec­ ond round versus 12th ranked Azusa Pacific University of California. This game was the proving ground for the 'Cats. The team was behind the Cou­ gars by 10 points at the break, and trailed by 18 at one point. The Wild­ cats bounced back to win the game by 11, and advanced to the quarters to meet up with Cumberland. Many of the 'Cats felt Azusa Pacific was their toughest opponent in Tulsa. "They played a lot like we did, but with bigger players," senior Chris Mosleysaid. • "They were tough because they were Assistant coach Mike Burns holds a conference during a timeout. deep, they ran 10 guys at you. My hat goes off to the guys, they played hard that day," Central head coach Greg Sparling said. The come-from-behind-win showed that Central meant business at nation­ als. Thomas was doing his share, averag­ ing 25 points and 10 boards for the tournament. "It was cool just watching Willie go off, he carried us throughout the tour­ nament," sophomore Tyce Nasinec said. Thomas, who has played well all year, earned himself a spot on the sec­ ond-team all NALA squad.

Central rodeo club rides this weekend by Keith Whisler Staff reporter With the coming of spring, the Central Washington Rodeo Club has shifted into high gear. The club which was originally established 17 years ago has seen renewed interest over the past year. The Central Rodeo Club is made up of 26 students, all with a common in­ terest in rodeo. Not everyone involved, though, is a contestant. Several stu­ dents are involved with running rodeo events as well as other aspects of the sport, such as arena set up and livestock handling. "This is a great opportunity to learn the aspects of a rodeo," Stephen Robinson, Central student and team member, said. "Anyone who has an interest in rodeo is encouraged to be­ come involved, or at least come by the Collegiate Rodeo being held this week­ end." The Collegiate Rodeo will be the first event the Central Rodeo Club has hosted. It will feature Central's top contestants as well as 300 of the regions best competitors from other schools. During the early part of this year, the team put on many fund-raisers to support the Regional Rodeo which is to be held this weekend at the Ellensburg Rodeo Fairgrounds. The fund-raisers ranged from selling pizza coupons to putting on a dance at the SUB earlier this year. The proceeds went directly into the 44 This is a great opportunity to learn the aspects of a rodeo. -Stephen Robinson funding of the regional event, spon­ sored by Central. The rodeo will begin at 7 p.m. Friday at the Rodeo grounds. The event will continue at 9 a.m. Satur­ day, with the finals at 6 p.m. Admis­ sion is free. Each year on Labor Day weekend, Ellensburg is home to one of the big­ gest rodeos on the professional tour. So it's only natural that Central have a rodeo team. According to Robinson, the team isn't involved with the Labor Day festivities, but they are trying to become involved. r If anyone is interested in becoming a part of the Rodeo Club, they are en­ couraged to attend one of the weekly meetings held on Monday evenings at 7 p.m. in SUB 207.

HOOPS: Wildcats experience southern hospitality in Tulsa From page 12 dering the shopping mall and checking out the competition. Some of die Wildcats really enjoyed the eating. "We tried every southern dish imag­ inable," Mosley said. "We had some really good barbeque down there," senior Phil Deutsch said. Just playing at nationals was experi-. ence enough for some players. "The best part was going down and getting experience by playing against good competition," Nasinec said. "The best part of the whole trip was winning two games while we were there," Mosley said. The Wildcats had a memorable sea­ son that saw the unit grow into a cham­ pionship team. "A highlight for me was probably the 'tfefrfeftddus improvement that We' made from the first game to the end of the season," Sparling said. "It made it fun for us as coaches to watch the guys bond on and off the court." "We're all proud of each other. We proved to ourselves that we could do it," Nasinec said. "Cutting down that net and giving a piece of it to my dad was very special to me," Mosley said, referring to the net cutting ceremony after the 'Cats clinched the league title. This year's basketball season was one that most Central fans will not soon forget. "I'd like to thank all the fans for a great year," Sparling said.

April 10,1997 — Sports — Observer %• Fastpitch drops the ball on the road by Dan Hanken Staff reporter Close only counts in horseshoes and hand grenades. The Central Wild­ cat women's softball team found this out last week, as they lost six of eight games. Two of the games were nail-biter losses to Western, 3-2 and 2-1 in nine innings, one to St. Martin's 3-2 and three defeats by Division I opponent Portland State. "The pitching was good enough to win, but we didn't get the timely hits," head coach Gary Frederick said. Despite the six losses, the young and inexperienced team showed potential with solid pitching and individual standout play in its victories against St. Martin's and the favored Portland State. "In our lineup, we've got three freshmen, two sophomores, three jun­ iors and a senior," Frederick said. "I am not discouraged, these young kids have potential."

The Wildcats were shut out in the opening game, but upset Portland State, who is 24-9, in the second. The win was Central's first softball victory over an NCAA Division I oppo­ nent.

Neil won the high jump with a ca­ reer-best jump of 6-7 1/2 and placed second in four other first-day events.

George Fox steals 3 from sluggers by Nik Buckmaster Staff reporter Central's men's baseball team travels to Lacey to open an eight-game series with St. Martin's College starting with a pair of.clpjibk-headers this Saturday and Sunday. The series continues next weekend April 19 and 20, with fourgames at Tomlinson Field. George Fox swept CWU in three games last weekend damaging its post-season contention. The 'Cats started the week off within striking distance of a playoff berth. They were ranked fourth in the regional poll but are sure to slip with the losses. Head Coach Desi Storey was unhappy with the losses and looks forward to a strong finish to a good season. "We didn't play well enough to win," Storey said. "We just didn't get the clutch hits at the right time." As for improvements for upcoming games Storey said, "Hitting is our main strength and that's what we're working 99 on. In last Friday's game against George Fox, David Silverton and Chris Moore each had three hits in the losing effort. The final score of this slugfest was 12-10. In Saturday's opener of the doubleheader, Central's Scott Earle went the distance. Earle had a two-hit shutout going into the sixth inning and finished with a five-hitter. Earle also pitched the final two innings of the nightcap. m avid Dick/Observer Chris Moore had three hits in last week's doubleheader. In the nightcap, a homerun by Mike Reese in the seventh inning forced the game into extra innings. Reese, Chris Peck and John Thurmond all had two hits for the Wildcats in the losing effort.
