How would the two-way communica-
tion with other colleges be beneficial to
students and/or faculty?
"If there are programs that we can't offer
because of low enrollment, we can match up
with other low -enrollment colleges so com-

other kinds of things that
we're looking at is using the

"We could have a setup

that experiment, asking
questions while it's being
conducted. Travel time
would be limited yet they
would have the same kmd of

On future building pn-
jects and mvovations:
"We have appnwed. at

hoping the legislatuie would

ing this legislative Msiuon.
but they did not. so we're
gt>mg to have to work with
our legislators and the gov-
ernor to see if we can get the
funding in the next seasian.
Are there any major
projects that will be started
during this next school year
or mainly finishing up
existing projects?
"Next spnng or summer,
we re gcnng to be working
on Buildmg I to consolidate
the computer labs into tme
long space on the second
fltxjT , It's easier to monitor
that way. moiv cost-effective
and should provick" students
with more open lab time.
"There's addihonol road
work off of Algonquin Road
and Farkmg lot Two that
will also be started Dunng
the s«:hix>l year, we will be
finishing up of Kuilding F.
Are there any function-
al changes in the upgrading
of Building F or is it strictly
cosmetic?
"There are certainly
functional changes. We're
tTMng to take advantage of
computer capabikties more
than m the past, we'ie recog-
nizing changes in instruc-
tional design and the future
support that media semces
IS trying to pnmde for stu-
dents and faculty."
A lot of people have
commented that the school
seems to be trying to cater
more towards transfer stu-
dents, leaving continuing
education and/or certificate
programs lacking. How do
you see this?
"I don't thmk we do 1

roci>gni/c that the communi-
ty uf sc'r\ i» h.is a lot of inter-
est m thf tour war graduate
degret- I think we do have a
focus on that hut I dt>n t
think it's out of proptirtion (o
our interest in providing
technical career programs or
continuing education pro-
grams.
"We'ie not trying to play
any one program down. In
fact, with the development
of our health services divi-
sion four years ago. we real-
ly put more emphasis on
continuing educahon, non-
credit oppt>rtunities for the
corporate swctor We recog-
nize that we don't imly serve
the 18. 14 and 20 year-old
student, that we serve a wide
variety of ages and mterests
m higher education.
Is there a plan to con-
nect the buildings?
"The master plan
designed by the primary
architect that started the
campus showed some of the
buildings connected but if
vva.s nev er intended for all of
thorn to be
"When Building I was
to be done, the architect was
very creative in seeing a v.a\
to connect the library and
Building P Whether we'll be
able to go further with it. 1 do
not know Its a possibility
but It would be several years
off "
Is there any reason the
parking lots are built so far
away from the buildings?
"I think a little green-
space IS appreciated when
you're sithng in a classroom.
You don't want to kxik out a
wmdow and see the glare off
a windshield. Secondly, I
think Its all m the perspec-
tive of where you're parking.
If yi>u go to a university,
parking is miles from the
center of campus But it is a
cofKem."
In closin(t another hot
topic is the rising price of
tuition. Is this something
the school anticipated or
that the government decid-
ed on?
"It's been a gradual
change The school board
divided about five years ago
that, as a target, they would
like to see student tuition
represent about 20^. of the
school's operating costs.
We've been under that, at
about 17*>o, but the mcreases
will bring us up to our target
r.uige. In terms of a long-
range plan in how we're
going to fund this institu-
tion, I don't thmk the
increase has been that exor-
bitant. We've seen the state
government cut back it's per-
centage on higher educabon
fundmg- that trend is clear
In order to make that up, you
cut costs wherever you can,
you look at what n-venue
you can generate from your
Icxal tax base, and you need
to Kxjk at tuition as ttie other
piece. I think we're trymg to
be reasonable in what we do.
what we expect from our
Uxal taxpayers, as well as
what we expect from our
local students.

Busin4~»s has btwn slow
since the slore'* opening,
according to i.,\^k' Vice
Prwidenl Andy Calatte.
However, there is litle fear
simplv because Eagle has no
plans to t.ike over the market
"We don't need a lot of
lustomers,™ Galatte •^aid
"We re |ust happy to gel 500
or 1,()IK) students."
(iagle Texttxxik's focus is
selling used Ixxiks at the low-
est possible price, which,
because of low overhead —
the store layout UkiLs more
warehouse-like than the on-
campus location and only
employs five people at peak
wiling season— IS often the
case. Eagle's policy is to meet
or beat any price from
Harper s bookstore on the
pnxlucts they carry.
Calatte said if each Harper
student purchases )ust one
book fn>m his store each
semester. Eagle can continue
to operate, all the while keep-
ing Harper's bookstore man-
agement eyes open.
"As long as we're there,
well ahvays keep the campus
bookstore m check," Calatte
explained.
Kim Wabh, The Harper
Plaza store's manager, said
personal service, convement

round, high-volume book

buy back are all reasons Eagle
has plans to stick around for
years to come.
'At Harper, they'll only
buy back so manv copies."
WaLsh explameti. "There are
some books we buy 30()
copies of (where) they only
buy back 20 "
Rich Seller, manager of
Harper's on<ampus book-
store, said he is not concerned
about Eagle Textbook's pre-
sense.
"A competitive bookstore
never hurts the situation,"
said Seller. "We operate m the
same manner as we did
before they got here."
Seller said tfiere is little
Harper's bookstore can do to
lower pnces, explammg that
an mdependent survey
showed Harper's prices to be
lower than approximately
three-fourths of campus
bookstores on both state and
national levels.

"I don't know what they
pay for their books ... but if
they're paying the same
prices we are, they can't stay
in business too long," Seller
explamed. "They can't keep
their stockholders too
happy"
Both Galatte and Seller
encourage students to shop
around for the best price.
However, Seller points out
money sfient at Harper's
bookstore gc>es directly back
into die college.
Seller said he truly
believes the two bookstores
can both operate ... if they
stay honest.
"As long as business is
straight up and as long as
they follow general ethical
procedures, (we can both
exist)," he coiKluded. "In
turn, they should expect the
same of us."

Bob Ck'tls, director of the physical
plant, said he hopes to see the day's
activities make a difference in the
work place year-round.
Hopefully, it will help them on a
dav-lo-day basis and they can learn
to work together as a team, to sup-
port each other,' Cietts said
The ph\sical plant and public
safetv employees said they enioyed
the change of pace, and are kx>king
forward to next year's Olympics, ui
which more Harper work staffs will
Ix' invited to participate.
"When we work (normalK ), were
isolated." s.iid custodial employee
IXwv Cross "We don't i;et to see

While Harper College is believed
to be' the onlv communitv college in
the area currenth hiilding such
activities. c)rgani/>'rs of this year's
games say other campuses will be
contacted in the near future for a
possible he.ul-to-head competition.

Highlights of the disc included
"Brother Billy", which MUind<>d like
something the Ramones might have

Our View j Time to say 'good-bye'
Another new semester is before
us, and with it, all the ups,
downs, anxiety attacks and
homework that goes with it.
Whether you're a new student trying
to find your way to your classes or a
returning student trying to figure out
where the perimeter road went, you're
be pleased to know that you are at one
of the finest community colleges in the
state, if not the country. This is a school
that is rich with excitement, diversity
and action. A highly-trained faculty and
staff are here to instruct and assist you.
Clubs and organizations meeting dozens
of interest.'^ provide an intinito amount
of activities. A 150,000-plus \ olume
library offers row upon row of informa-
tion. And a food ser\ iti> crew is work-
ing to make the cafeteria the best it's
ever been.
Several projects were completed
throughout campus over the summer A
new, remodeled library will open in
Building F. Parking Lots I and 12 were
repaved and re-striped for easier access
to the buildings. The perimeter road bv
Lot 1 has been moved in for the upcom-
ing widening of Algonquin Road.
For those of you with Internet access,
Harper can t>e reached via
http://www.harper.cc.il.us.
The only constant here is change.
New things are happening every day,
and the only way to find out about it is
to become involved in your school. Take
some time to explore all of the options
available to you at the various student
centers. The Student Activities office in
Building A is a good place to start.
Get involved. It's vour school!

AAE EditOf
One thing I have wanted
lo do IS to come up with a
mission statement for what I
would like to see m the Arts
and Entertainment sechon
this semester coming up.
I was the AAt editor last
semester, am) what a semes-
ter It was! I t«>k on the ptwi-
tiiTo with little hands-on
experience (1 had written
cvactlv one artwle for the
paper up to that pcimt), and
It has been a phenomenal
experience for me
In one semester 1 le.im«\t
how to make publicists listen
to me (that »n't alwavs easv.
either), how to btxik mter
Views and even get to meet
with people such as James
Young and They Might Be
Giants, how to conduct the
mterviews. how to write
about music and muMCiaivs,
how to review a concert, and
finally how to lay out the
paper. Our layout night
gives new meaning to the
Sidney Sheldon title
.VlfrriiTri-s <•» .Vluinij^'ll — how
quickly midnight comes and
goes when we spend hours
on end trying to come out
with a finished paper for
your reading pleasure-
Not only have 1 gotten a
lot of practical experience,
but also much personal
growth I h<ivt' gaintxl confi-
dence in my work, which is
not easv to do somctunes
There i> nothing like the tee!
ing of getting a call tnim a
band's publicist saymg
"thanks for the article^ the
band loved ii;" That fivling
IS especially strong when 1
n-cetve a phiwe call from the
.(:• ■ -aving
I!. '.to them
!. ,ue pub-
Ir- -.dc
aftet-siiow passes i
Writing lor The ffiirfintjriT
has als*,) been an invaluable
profeitsiDnal expenence for
me— because of my experi-
ence here 1 have developed a
workmg relatK>nship with
ShmiKafe Chicujtu maga/me
as a contributing wnler (1
usually try to Slav away
from shameless plugs, but
the August Lssue featuies
Zippcthead, a really cool
local band, and it's free!)
Oiu- thing 1 would like to
do in the semester to come is
feature some music reviews
of kxal bands .\nvone who
has a CD or cassette they
would like tv> submit may
drop it off m my mailbox at
the Hiirtw^c! olfice I wi-^ulil
like to trv >iiui run as many
rev lews .is I c.in I would bke
to continue to bnng inter
views and concert rev lews to
our campus, but
there is s>' milk;
that we can't possibiv sov er
everything. Suggestions are
alwavs welcome as to what
vou woulil like to see tov-
erevl in ;\ ■- ilwavs

Our View
$3.5 million: It's
money well spent!
There was a lot of things Harper could
have done with $3.5 million. How would a
cut in the bookstore prices sound? Maybe
less expensive cafeteria food. Or maybe a
tuition rebate! Valet parking in Parking Lot
One nught not be so bad, either.
How about a renovated Learning
Resource Center?
That place that is known to commonfolk
as the library underwent a significant reno-
vation over the summer. What used to be
worn-out carpet and bad lighting is now a
state-of-the-art learning facility New fea-
tures, such as multimedia-capable comput-
ers, a bibliographic instruction Rx)m,
expanded circulation, and more space
enable the L.R.C. to meet the needs of stu-
dents and faculty for the next several years.
If you haven't visited the L R.C. lately
stop by and take a Icwk. You'll find a styl-
ish facility and professional staff read\' to
cater to your learning needs. This is your
tuition and taxes working for you— stop by
and check it out!
Not a bad return on a sizable investment,
is it?
THE ED'S VIEW /on O'Bru-r,. Uitor-m-Chiff
Same to you, ya' idiot!!
The ottiCT day my girl-
fiimd was telling me of an
mcideni she had at work
that made me think hand
alxnit how we treat some
people
A young family walked
out on a sizable check at
Ruby Tuesday restaurant at
Woodfield Mall The catch
was they forgot their keys at
the Uble They had the
nerve to go back to get their
keys and still not pay the
ct>eck! They claimed that
they waited 45 minutes for
their check. The manage-
ment apologized and let
them go (and, no, they did-
n't leave a tip).
I was outraged. Why
would a manager let a herd
of white trash scum bags
walk out on a check? I
would have been dangling
those keys over their heads
on a stick until the mill
.security team came to haul
them away had I been that
manager
Contnm' to some peo-
ple's opinions. [ beliovo that
we sh<iuld try to be fxjiite
and courteous lo those who
deserve it I also believe that
those who annoy me
deserx'e whatever hell I
unleash upon them (Yes,
this is a rather twisted inter-
pretation of the "Golden
Rule")
You could say that it's
bad public relations for an
establishment — be it restau-
rant or otherwise— to treat
customers poorly, even if
Ihey deserve it. Well, what
makes the treatment poor?
I wouldn't want a clan of
dishonest pec^le coming
back to my business if I
caught them once. Don't get
me wrong— I believe every-
one should get a fair chance.
But if they're going out of
their way to screw you over,
that treatment that was con-
sidered poor is now, in my
humble opinion, jastified.
Are you one of those
people who feel that you are
entitled to special treatment
at the expense of others?
Do you feel that yelling,
screaming and walking on
people is the best way to gel
what you want? I've got a
question for you: why?
VVhtTf do you gel off rais-
ing hell and making my life
miserable? I've got news
for you: threatening a law-
suit every time you spill
your coffee isn't the way to
expedite service! If you'd
take tfie time to rest your
vocal chords between your
wild bursts of unbridled
bitching and attempt to
work with this hell-spawn
in front of you, knovtm to
most as the clerk, you might
actually get something done
without raising your blood
pressure to new highs.
The next time you're in a
sitiiation ttiat goes awry,
take some time to bite your
lip (and think things out).
Not everyone is out to con
you. And if you're thinking
of corming someone else,
don't expect them to t>e nice
you. Feel free to take my
verbal counter assault per-
sonally.

Cleaning Ladys: 'We want the airwaves'
LouiQ Gontoon
Arts 4 Entefti3«nmeot Edrtcx
It sounds liluF Spinal Tip
revisited, a party gone
completely crazy. The
theme song ends, and sud-
denly the four hosts are all
yammering at once.
"Another Who reissue!"
Art screams out of nowhere
"1 swear, there are ten tunes
as many Who compilations
out there as there were origi-
nal albums!"
"Oh, God, he's ragging
on Townshend again!' says
Dan. "Give Pete a break! His
ears are still ringing; he
needs the money for an oper-
ation!"
The Cleaning Ladys, four
Chicago music scene \feter-
ans, are about to pull off
what they have more or less
avoided doing for nearly two
decades, they're going to get
in your face!
The band contisis of fohn
Anderson, vocals, Scott
Brewer, bass. Art Collins,
Kuitjr. dnd Dan Laino (a.k.a.
Djniel T Stix), drums As
with any long stdnding rela-
tionship. th«» tnemhers each
brin>; thi-ir own f>tTS(»n.iliru's
into the party — sometimes
harmoniously, sometimes
not. ("And sometimes the
police show up," adds Scott.)
Their music-talk radio
show, Ntfdle Dmp, is part
Spinal Tap nin amok (except
that the hosts are in on the
joke), and part Steve Dahl-
meets-Sisket and Ebert.
Much Uke in Woynr's WorU,
four frustrated artists get to
hurl their mayhem over an
unsuspecting Chicago area—
their own way.
"First and fbinmnt, we're
rock musk fans," explains
John. "Wr came up in the
daaiic era, which our critical
penpective reflects, in that
we like our songs well-struc-
tured and imaginative and
energetic and rebellious."
Vital Stats
The show is set in an
abandoned warehouse, and

On the air ...
One can only begin to
fathom the hosts' amuse-
ment over their own show
topics During a past seg-
ment, entitled 'Dare to
Compare", they invited
callers to banter about the
obvious goings-on at other
statioas (Pearl Jam on QlOl,
The Real McCoy on B%),
cheek out their forecasts, and
then call back to gloat about
how correct they were.
Another show, dubbed
"Beatles vs Cleaning
Ladys", was an all-out battle
of the bands: one Beatles
song (usually a weak song)
played, followed by one
Ladys number The listeners
called and voted, sometimes
yielding to and sometimes
resisting, intimidation by the
hosts (The Cleaning Ladys
won by one vote — never
mind that the janitor wan-
dering through the aban-
doned warehouse was
prompted to vote "Cleaning
Ladys" in a not-so-subtle
manner.)
Sometimes they do live
interviews on the show.
During a phone-in segment
with Dweezil and Ahmet
Zappa, lallers won ft«; con-
cert tickets by suggesting
names for Dweezil's kids.
(Among the more notable
names suggested by callers
were "/arCiANthropod" and
I ifm\l\'slogram" ) Other
letenl interviewees ha\e
included members of The
Droveis, James "JY" Young
( lormerly of Styx), Jason and
Allison. and Matthew
Sweet
"This is the only show
that promises vou miisir but
delivers conversation,"
quips Scott at the bt>ginning
of every show They
announce the evening's con-
test— lislaiers are mvited to
call in and contribute to the
topic, and their names will
be entered into a drawing for
one of two free compact
discs to be given away every
show. Tonight's theme, in

observance of Independence
Day, IS "Americans vs
British'— riHk artists, that is
"Irish," says the first
caller, obviously aware of the
show's irreverent anarchy
She then supports her posi-
tion by citmg The Drovers,
The Chieftains, and Van
Morrison.
"Great." John changes the
flow of conversation. "So,
what are your plans this
evening — fireworks??"
"I could tell you, but then
I'd have to kill you," the girl
responds, and the hosts
crack up
Then & Now
The Cleaning Ladys'
radio show is just the latest
in a string of triumphs
stretching back to the band's
evolution in 1978, when they
first began gigging and
recording together When
M"rV came along, the video
for "She Won t French Kiss"
received prominent airing,
winning a Monitor award
over the likes of Dire Straits,
Yes, and Don Henley.
"So we sat down one
day," explains Dan, "and
decided that if you can have
two /illion 24-hour-j-dayall-
spcirts talk shows, there's got
to be an audience for good
music talk as well "
Withour a doubt- the
NefJte Drop caller response
provides plenty of affirma-
tion. For the duration of the
show, the phone lines stay
iammed with callers ranging
from fifteen year-old mosh-
mongers to fifty-year-old
Elvis fans.
John shrugs "We thought
that the reason we hadn't
made it was that we needed
better hair, when all we real-
ly needed was a transmitter
and 3500 watts!"
Who would have known?

S|.-t Oluls
this was IVkuas lirst attempt
at competing in a triathlon "It was
a lot of fun and the heat didn't
bother me until the run, I plan on
training tor next \'far's event by
using other triathloa-- tor practice."
Deluca said
Deluca completed a grueling
course that began with a 1.5 km
swim in Lake Michigan with a
water temperature of 75 degrees.
The triathleles continued the race
with a 40km bike that went north
on Lake Forest Drive before tum-
irtg south toward McCormick
Place.
For the hardy competitors who
survived the first two legs ol the
event there was a lOkm run to the
finish-hue. Dehydration and
fatigue were her son's enemies, but
Amilia Deluca said. "1 was as
proud as a mother could tie when
joe crossed that fmish-line I just
cried."
Deluca will be graduahng at the
end of this semester, but he does
not plan to run track at his four
year schcwl. "1 just want to concen-
trate on competing in triathlons,"
Deluca said

pivotal game. Not only is
this a historic game for the
Hawks, but this is also
Grand Rapids first confer-

"This IS the featured
game this week in our
region, and might go a long
way in determining were we
stand in the region at the end
of the year," he said.
Fliasik said that a big
turnout from the fans would
be greatly appreciated by
both the alumni and the cur-
rent Hawk team.
Kickoff IS scheduled for 7

A girl who used to do "wire

one anonymously slips Lenny the
clip oi her murder, forcing him to
t.iste her pain, hear her screams,
see her anguish, teel her fear, and

on New \ear s tAe. I'-'W.
lennv linds himself running for

the one he turns to for help and

S*5metime in No\i'niLx-r we can
look forward to Wailing To
Exhale, with Hassi-tt as just oiu'
memlxT ot a star-studded cast.
Other cast members include
Wliitney Houston, Loretta Devine,
Lela Rochon, Gregory Hines, and
Michael Beach.
Waiting To Exhale is the
poignant story ot feinak' bonding
so strong that a li>ur-way friend-
ship leads the women through the
monster-ridden labyrinth of mtxi-
ern life The friends weather the
worst together, waiting for the men
who will "take tfieir breath away".
.Next, sometime in December
we can expect another Ti-avolta
revi\al vehicle in Broken Arrow,
also with Christian Slater. Travolta
,ind Slater become empassioned in
a battle against each other .md time
is running out—they must find a
stolen nuclear weapon before a
major American city pavs the
price. Samantha Mathis. best
known for her critically acclaimed
role in Little Women, plays
Slater's love interest in what may
turn out to be the Top Gun of the
nineties.
There seem to be some I'vcellent
films in store for moviegoers
everywhere this tall — also due out
are the usual crop of teen angst
flicks, and probably one of the
most eagerly awaited is Tie-Dyed,
a post-humous Gratetul Dead trib-
ute. Why not go to the movies —
there seems to be something for
everyone on the way this fall.

Sixty-five cents
for pop? Are
you crazy?!
It seems that Astro Vending, Inc., in its
infinite wisdom, decided that screwing
over students and faculty by charging
them $.60 for pop wasn't enough. Nope,
they had to bump the price another
nickel to $.65. And to add insult to
injury, service is not expected to
improve.
This leaves a bad taste in my mouth.
Why must Astro continue to charge its
rip-off prices to students and get away
with it? Everyone know that a can of
soda should be $.50, and not a penny (or
three nickels) more.
Has the forces that be at Harper ever
corviidered allowing more than one
vending company to serve us? Two
companies competing for your pocket
change would get that price down real
fast.
For more immediate results, protest
the increase by bringing your own pop
from home. If you have access to a
refridgerator, chill a 24-pack. Chances
are it will be colder and more refreshing
than the vending machines anyway.
And think of all that change you'll be
saving!
For an institution representing over
25,000 people, there is no excuse for
Harper not having some leverage in the
prices for pop.
We now return you to your regularly
scheduled thirst-querKhing.
Parents: Turn the channel
Jon 0'M«n, The Ed s View
I've received several mes-
•Miges in vanous fomw from
people all over campus about
my column on parents watch-
ing their children
Unfortunately the battle
doesn't stop at the Internet
Television and radio have
been under fire for a lot
longer What I find amusing
IS the reasoas for it .ire so are
utterly stupid
It's mere couKideive that
this iust happens to concern
another lawsuit where a fami-
ly is fUmg suit with another
information provider — in
this case, a family vs MTV It
seems that Beavis and Butt-
head taught their children
about fire fire' FIRE" (oh,
excuse me) Or so they claim
What I find funny is how
they failed to demonstrate
how this learning expenence
took place The mtelligence
uaed lo arrive at this corKlu-
sion makes the O J Simpson
tnal look appealing agam
Why is the current genera-
tion of children so susceptive
of becoming corrupted by
television than pre%nou8 gen-
erations' My childhood car-
toon days ended m the early
■80s and somehow I came out
normal 1 didn't hear about
any kids who hit each with
hammers to see if little
birdies flew m circles around
their heads like on Woody
Wotxlpecker 1 didn't fwl anv
urges to run my cat over to
see if he magically re-inflatet1
like on Tom and Jerry To this
day, Beavis and Butt-head
don't give me an unam-
troUed desire to suck on a
toad to get a bun or inarch
around school l«iking for
"teepee for my bimghole"
Comedian Oorge Carlin
once talked about a priest in
the south that tned to get the
government to place further
restrictions on television and
radio conunurucation Even
today, James Exon (remember
my first article?) seems to
think the words "unless you
use a computer" come after
the First Amendment
Carlin's suggestion to the
priest was simple change the
channel! I don't need some-
body else's parents telling me
what I can and cannot watch
Carlin may be a comedian
but his routine held a kit of
truth in it
As Americans, we have
more choices than any other
people on earth Don't try to
limit those choices for e\ eT\
one. show those who are
uiienlishtened how to use
those choices to their advan-
tage Quit 't(Hilproofing"
everything and let them fig-
ure It out

There is a diverse stu-

Harper, each of us
travebng different toads on
OUT way to achieving per-

Some have achieved
success m some capaaty or
another.
Others have overcome
great odds just lo be here
studying at Harper.
What we all liave in com-
mon IS that we are here now,
dealing with new issues,
attempting to enhance our
knowledge, learning from
our nustakes.
The Harbmger m the past
has tecogmued student and
staff achievements or accom-
pilishments, and that will
continiie.
The Harbmger is interest-
ed m recoginizing the
accompiUshments of staff,
students and clubs trying to
make a difference.
Recently, a parent called
to tell a story of her son's
parbapahon m the Chicago
Triathlon, August 31,1995

Wanted: Roaring, cheering
crowds at Harper sports
Sunn Bodamocfwr
Spofts Editor
The Harper College lootbiill
team will b«; celebrating ils
25th Anniversary' with a
special ceremony during the
Seph»mb«?r 16 game against Grand
Ki, '- Harper College history
will be made that night and it
would spectacular to have a
standing loom only crowd for the
game.
Coach J(jhn Eliasik created the
football program during the sum-
mer of 1971 and has buil it into .ui
outstanding program. Eliasik s
teams have produced 39 AU-
Amehcans. In 1973, only the third
season, Ervin Kimbrough became
liie Hatvks' first All-American.
Eliaalk is now the winningest
active commurut\- college head
coach in the country Harper's
football teams have won numer-
ous conference titks with trips to
several bcnwl games.
Harper's football team has
brought a great deal of honor and
glory to our school over the paSl
quarter of a centuiy. 1 believe that
ttw students, of Harper College
have a responsibility to show their
appreciation to ail of those who
ha%'e worked aiul played for the
football program in the last 25
years.
Last week a friend of mine
questMined me as to why commu-
nity college sp<irts aren't as big as
they are in the high schools and
universities. I couldn't aaswer
him. Where I come from in
California, community college
sports draw big crowds.
California's community colleges
are commuter colleges ju-st like
Harper.
Change is the battlecry of the
'90i. I think that it is time that we
change the face of Harper College
sports by filling the seals at every
sporting event As a great person
once said (I can't remember
who)"Theie is no time like the
present."

The Volleyball team opened
confen-ncf play St-plcmber
12th against Jolift in the
Harper gymnasium.
Haipcr started nut strv»ng by tak-
ing the first game, but lost the next
three. 'We were close in the second
and third games," Shannon Hill
said. "The last game we weren't real-
ly focused,' she said.
The loss followed a successful
weekend as the volleyball team
defeated fudsiw and South
Suburban They also have fallen in
matches at home against Highland
and on the road against Morame
Valley and St. FrancLs.
Coach fudy Steinbeck is opti-
mi.<.tic aK)ut this year's team and
hopes that the team can improve
upon the gotxl record that ttiev had
in 1994.
"Last season we were living on
the edge because we only had six
players," Steinbeck said. Six players
are required to play m onler to pre-
vent a forfeit,
"If one girl was in|ured or got
sick, we were in trtnible," Steinbeck
recounted. 'Thank gixKlness we
have eight players thus year."
Hill observes, "We need to come ■
together as a team and push for a
victory"

of Directors.
President of the United
States Bill Clinton, the fea-

AACC convention in
Minneapolis, Minnesota,
congratulated all of the
newly elected board mem-
bers.
Clinton spoke to a crowd
t>t nearly 22tX) participants
involved in the community
college movement.
Organized in 1920, the
AACC IS a natioful organiza-
tion that consists of 1100 two-
year institutions.
"One of the AACC's
goals IS to get a better under-
standing of public contribu-
tions and where those contri-
butions go," Thompson said.

Dr. Thompson, now in his

committee meets and works
along with the AACC and
the ACCT (American
Association for Community
Colleges Trustees , and the
Joint Commis.sion on Federal
Relations.
"We have an interest in all
community colleges to get
help from Federal
Legislation, and maybe that
will be effected close to
homo, here at Harper,"
Thompson said.
Thompson will also be a
contact for the Instructional
Telecommunications Council.
The Instructional Telecom-
munications Council is
important to Thompson since
Harper has joined with other
regional colleges to provide
distance learning.
"Here we need better
research. It will help stu-
dents, in the placement jobs
and m the placement of other
schools, when they go to
transfer," Thompson said.
He emphaised that not
too many things have been
well documented to this
point, but a change is
inevitable.
Haqjer just might be closer to managing
the ongoing geese problem. Some of the
proposals aren't what you'd call typical
but two other possibilities are already
swimming in the pond. Page 3

Coincidentally, an invita-
tion to speak at the People to

A recent Friday
afternoon head
count revealed
thai (here are more
geese on campus than
students. So how do
we control the growing
gaggle of geese?
Director of Physical
Plant, Bob Geotz said,
"The geese are definite-
ly becoming a problem
because moie and more
of them come back
every year to breed
where they are bom."
Coetz said the
Harper board of
trustees has been dis-
cussing ways to control
the geese.
"One idea men-
tioned was to trap the
geese, send them to a
food processing plant
and offer them as an
alternative fixxi source
to food pantries," he
said.
Stressing that it was-
n't his idea to eat the
geese, Goetz explained,
"I don't think there's
anything wrong with it,
just compare it to eating
beef."
If eating the geese
doesn't appeal to you,
the board of trustees
has considered another
alternative: swan
patrol.
For under a mere
$4000 Harper college
could purchase a pair of
geese wrangling swans.
Midge Flemmmg-lhrig,
swan care project man-
ager at Dr. Churches
landscaping said they
have been selling and
leasing swans since
1987.
Ihrig sdid swans are
very territorial, espe-
cially when they are
nesting. They will pro-
tect their offspring from
any predators by chas-
ing them away.
"Even though swans
are a good way to con-
trol the geese, we use
them for other reasons
too" Ihrig said. "They
can be used to eat
aquatic algae, lessening
the need for pesticides."
Although swans
could do a lot of good
for the campus, Ckietz is
still hesitant about tak-
ing the money out of
his budget. "There's no
guarantee that the
swans will work," he
said.
As tar as guarantees
go, notiiing is for sure.
We plant trees and can
only hope they grow.
Lets buy some swans,
and hope we've all
been chased by our last
nasty goose.

Toison
rhf scene outside the
door waiting lo get in was
something else entirely-
Jame- '" ' -ing (former
Styx ,, .ra-ntly pur-
suing othe: [■•ro|ects includ-
ing the lames Young Croup)
was there along with a few
other people from
Whitehouse Records to see
7th Heaven, one of the open-
ing bands, perform.
Warrant has been on the
road for about the past rune
months and they have a new
album. (JItraphobic, now
available in record stores
everywhere.
Jerry Dixon gave a brief
rundown of the band: "Did
three records, )ani quit the
band, and then our manager
died, and then we filed for
bankruptcy, and then Jani
came back into the band, we
got with the new label CMC,
and then our fourth record,
(JItraphobic- we've been
together about ten years
now"
Warrant has gone through
a lot of changes over the past
few years with lineup and
everything else- musically
they have progressed a long
way to a more mature men-
tality, evident on their last
two albums. '1993 was a
black year for the band. .
Dog Eat Dog was a pretty
dark record", said Dixon.
"When we first started out,
all we know hmv to do was
screw girls and drink 1 was
still in high schiHil, I'd never
been out of California
before... I think the records
kind of got a lot more
mature, they've not only pro-
gressed Ivrically, but also
rniisicallv We lixik back- we
had a bell i>t a lime, but we
progressed As you get
older vou toou> more on why
you're here, why you're
doing this, and you come out
of that little rock star haze...
you come back to reality and
at this point you have to be
in it for the music, not the
rrtoneN' "
Dixon expressed regret at
the fact that people seem to
not buy as many of their
records these days: "I don't
think we're that far off from
what everyone else is doing...
1 think if more people had
heard the last record (Dog
Eat Dog) they might under-
stand the new one a little bit
better." Jani Lane was a guest
on Mancow Muller's morn-
ing show the morning that
they played at Toto's, and
Mancow definitely felt the
heat (and spent some time
dissing them) after Jani Lane
hung up on him. "Mancow
|u-.t went, 'we're goin^ to
play some grunge now and
not Warrant so listen to this.'
and Jani went 'hey, lislen to
this and hung up on him on
the air'" Dixon said of shixk
radio, "pt»ople get an the air
and say stuff, and you're
expected to go '1 can't believe
they said that!'"
l-ane got into the Mancow
war onstage later that
evening as well- in between
songs he (deservingly, and to
the cheering of the crowd)
called Mancow some things
which are unfit for print.
Warrant put on an excellent
show at Toto's. From their
new songs such as "J-iigh",
"Stronger Now", and
"Family Picnic" to old
favorites such as "Cherry
Pie", "D.R.FS.R', and "Unck
Tom's Cabin", the audience
was in for one hell of a good
time.
Lane puts on not just a
show, but a party for his fans:
as he put it onstage, "You all
paid fifteen bucks for your
hckets, so for all of you that
paid, you're not leaving and
we're not leaving until you
get every penny's worth!"
Many rcxrk bands play for as
little time as possible (who
cares, we \e got your
money), but for Warrant, per-
forming brings such a high
that the\ have been known
to play three or four hour
shows of late
The band interacts pro-
fusely with the audience.
Lane has been known to dive
into the audience with no
warning whatsoever, and
occasionally he douses the
audience with beer. They
also encouraged a sing-along
with audience members dur-
ing a cover of "Tequila"
(which they also declared the
national anthem- hell, it's a
lot easier to remember all the
words!).
They later played an
acoustic --et which included
"Blind Faith ■. "Heaven", and
"1 Saw Red" Warrant puts
on one of the best acoustic
sets 1 have ever seen As a
matter of fact, the whole
.show totally rocked. As for
the guys, they want their
fans to know that they're still
out there working and play-
ing music, and they should
have another album out
before very long In the
meantime, check out
Ultraphobic- now available
as a domestic in most record
stores. And check out
Warrant live the next time
they come to town. Even if
you're not a big Warrant fan,
this is one live show that you
won't want to miss!

some Aussies have finally
learned to play.
There are more harmo-

Our View
This apathy thing
is contageous!
What else is new. The Student Senate
Elections passed with another poor turn
out at the ballot box. Only a total of 13
ballots were tallied.
The election needs to be publicized
extensively to get voters out. If a quick
poll on campus was taken, most students
would say, "When was this so called elec-
tion."
Another draw back is that nobody tells
prospective voters that they need their
student activity cards to vote. Believe it or
not the school is afraid that students may
vote more than once.
This is one case where it really doesn't
appear to be a cause for concern.
However, recently this t> pe of turn out
isn't only at the ballot box for Student
Senate.
Da\ s pass before anyone is seen going
in and out of the Senate office. Are they
required to post office hours?
Mi'st all organizations here are required
to ha\ f them posted outside their dix>r,
what's with the special treatment.
The answers to some of these problems
could be answered closer to home, it any-
one was home.
To be a strong organization they must
have some form of unity, be willing to
spend time at it and take pride in what
they do and what they stand for.
If Student Senate wants students to care
about them, maybe they should care
about Student Senate first. Believe it or
not being in the office during the week is
a good start.
Could there problems on the horizon
for this student activitv?

Election: Powell deserves the Presidency...
but does the Presidency deserve him?
JonOlrt«n Editor-m-CNef
Unless youTw been living
under a rock lately or com-
pletely engrcwsing yourself in
the O I- Simpson trial, you're
prettv aware of Colin Powell's
mfluence on the presidential
election nent year His media
image is glammg (witness this
article), he tus a distinguished
past, and mosl importantly,
got there through hard work.
As any candidate in either
party can tell you, he's a force
to be reckoned with
Think for a moment about
why he's so popular. Amenca
wants the government off of
Its back— witness the
Republicans seizing control of
both the House and Senate last
year Waiting as long as he has
to declair which party he
wants to represent is the next
logical step. Why do you think
Ross Perot was so popular in
1992?
While iioine would argue
that he has very little political
experience, I would call rising
through the rank.s of the mili-
tary more than a grueling les-
son in politics. His lack of
experience on Capitol Hill
means there are few bad
habits to undo Nobody would
dare cross his path for a wfiile
tiecause his bulliHproof media
image would crush *em like a
grape
Another interesting con-
cept he bnngs to the (able is
credilability He isn't your typ-
ical fast-talking politician who
promises the world when he
knows he can't deliver His
past speaks for itself. He
posesses a strong sease of fam-
ily values and is fiscally con-
servative. Unlike Jesse
Jackson, he doesn't use his
skin color to get votes or raise
a fuss over meaixingless issues
in order to get a tele\'ision
camera to look at him. What a
nice change of pace it would
be to have a president who
actually earned his position!
With his defense experience,
we'll have tlie most experi-
enced finger on the trigger in
years.
Colin, you joined the ser-
vice to serve your country
Take the next logical step and
take your seal in the Oval

Dear Editor:
,^^ I wandered about cam-
pu.s last Thursday. I picked up
a copy of nu" Harbinger At thie
bottom of page one. 1 noticed
something — the two words
that caught my eye in this little
blurb were "commentary" and
"controversial " "Ah, perhaps
an interesting discourse" on
national politics," I thought.
The only clear point of Mr.
Floden s article was that he
wanted an excuse to engage in
a little Clinton-basiling.
Through his use of the demon
Clinton, Mr Floden somehow
manages to unify smoking,
blue lean ads, AIDS, adverhs-
ing and its effects on the
young and the fiH>lish, church-
es, and politics and tJien leaves
us with the impression that he
(cvls Mr Clinton is responsible
tor the bad side of all these
things What exactly was Mr.
I loden s point?
T.W. Fuller's point is quite
clear and left me asking only
one question What is Mr
Fuller so scared of That mix-
ing females and males in acad-
emic settings will cau.se the
males to become distracted
and abandon their studies?
Perhaps the Little Rascals will
even take the 'No gurls
allowed" sign off the dub-
)]puse
In closing, 1 would like to
say that 1 was happy to see the
commentary page was not
covered with the standard lib-
eral PC crud that college
newspapers are occasionally
prone to. At the same time,
though, I was disappointed to
find a pair of Rush Limbaugh
clones spouting tired right-
wing rlieloric

We are a counlrv (hat pndes il.selt

We ache to go Into ev er\ country ot

speaking
We (America) hear the hormr sto-

abortions because of the one child
per family law; small childn?n
packed together for many hours at
hme with little consolation tor their
efforts. We (America) yearn to do
something to stop it all, but have no
right.
It is a dangerous situation indeed
when another counlrv- divs have the
nghl to dictate the laws of another
counlrv. And we certainly would not
want China telling us how to run our
lives, so we must agree with China's
right to govern itself, even though we
mav not respect the way in which
they do It Or commit ourselves to

How do students at
Harper College twl about the
verdict? Do they now hold a
different view of the
American judtcial system?
These were some of the ques-
tions that the poll endeavored
to answer.
Of the 28 ivspondents, 64
percent aj^reed with the ver-
dict Sevcnt-two percent of
those who agreed reasaned
that there was a lack of evi-
dence and/or reasonable
doubt.
"1 felt that they didn't
have enough physical evi-
dence," Marlene Zabaneh of
I>es Plaines said "It was all
circumstantial."
There were also thus*- who
agreed with the verdict, yet
believed Simpson to be
guilty
An anonymi»u< -.tudent
expressed his opininn,
"Eventhough he ts guilty as
hell, the defense proved that
there was a reasonable
doubt."
And surely there ate thsjse
who agree with one nutrition
major who believes, "he
was framed."
Of the 2^ percent who dis-
agree with the verdict, three
quarters of those found tfiat
the evidence was substantial.
"There was overwhelmmg
evidence pointing to O I s
guilt," Sara Weill ot Rolling
Meadows said.
Seven pera'nt of the
respondents werf unsure of
their opinion because the
complexit\ of the case ai»d
unanswered ijuestions
Another anonymous stu-
dent said. "1 dont know how
O I could take his denwanor
on the plane ride to Chicago
But on the other hand, who
else would di> it'"
Not surpnsinglv, most of
those who agrifd with the
veidict do not hold a dittea'nt
view of the judicial system.
Succinctly put, "It worked,"
David Olsen of Schaumburg
said
But one respondent of Mt.
Pn>sptvt who agreed with the
not guilty verdict said that his
view of the ludicial system
changed because, "If you got

Tony's Veil of Tears
Tony instills wisdom in thosf who ask.
Drop off a letter for him at the
Harbmger office. Thejbllounng is from
Tbnys mai^ag.
Dear Tony,
You probably won't print this but I
have a mother that whines all the
time if she doesn't get her way.
She constantly complains to me of
her loneliness and uses the tele-
phone as her crutch. How can 1 tell
her to find another outlet?
Sarah
Palatine. II
Dear Sarah,
I am sure that many of our readers
have a relative or friend such as
your mother, but when that annoy-
ing teakettle whistles, who doesn't
want to pull It off the stove. You are
correct in stating that your mother
needs another outlet Since you arc
the one that she is turning to in her
time of need, it is important that
you be direct, state your message to
her clearly, and do it in a non-pun-
ishing way. Good luck.
Dear Tony,
My neighbor i» a pig and has a d is-
gusting habit of chain-smoking
cigarettes. 1 live directly above
him and all the smoke from his
apartment constantly flows into
my living room. All my upholstery
is white and I am sure that his
smoke has turned it a greyish
color. I've complained to the man-
aging agent but he tells me that
there isn't anything that they can
do. Can you stop this?
Up in Smoke
Naperville, IL
Don't just shut your eyes when
smoke gets m them. The staining of
your furnishings and the wafts of
smoke clouding your domain are
enough to take action! New York
City and Los Angeles set prece-
dence for the rest of the Uiuted
States by abolishing cigarette
smoke in public areas, as well as
restaurants. Your neighbor has the
right to smoke in the privacy of his
own cave but doesn't have the right
to pollute yours. You can write to R.

Not much can be

recent Dick Dole
conceit except this :
UNBEUEVABLE!
With his trusty guitar
in tow, he rocked the the-
ater so hard this poor stu-
dent walked out shaking
plaster out o^ his hau Dick
Dale is NOT the king of the
surf guitar... He is the Cod.
Opening with Ezekiel 25: 17
(the dialog from Pulp
Fiction) he blazed through
an adienaline and testos-
terone version of Misrihu.
Dale performed from
a variety of his of hits
including one of whKh he
dedicated to a nine year-old
fan thai approached Dalt? in
the past That young boy
turned out to be |imi
Hendri*.
Dale won over his
Harper "tribe" by playing
requests Upon hearing
this, the audience respond-
ed asking to hear
'Rpeline," from the mo¥ie
Back to the Beach.
Throughout the con-
cert. Dale's three and a half
year old son participated in
the show, playing his small
drum kit. His wife, Jill also
joined him for a song play-
ing a mean drum that
would make Tommy Lee
blush.
The classiest part of
the evening took place after
the show Dick Dale signed
every autograph and was
in no hurry to leave until
Public Safety loM fans that
It was time to leave.
Dick Dale is a classy
guv and a great on stage
performer. He left the
crowd with these three
words of advice. "Keep on
smiling "
Trying to make a name

thing that all bands fry
ver) hard to do Spies who

The group started eight
years ago in a basement and
are now kxiking to be a head-
line group themsflves
Bassist Marty Busca, said he
believes that good things
could be on the horizon.
"Right now, all we need
are some business smarts and
some morwy", Busca said.
Playing new and bigger
venues are something that
Guitarist Tommy Klein said
To play Vegas and have our own

thing I have always wanted to do.
Tommy Klein, guitarist

the band has been working

"We have played the
Riveria and West Coast
Academy in New York.",
Klein said.
"We have a show
Friday, Oct. 13 at the Elbow
Room in Chicago. The Exotics
will be opening for us."
Coals from members in
the group vary, but Klein and
Busca both agreed that tiieir
type of music is catching on
and may lead to a west coast
tour
"To play Vegas, and
have our own sitcom, those
are some of the things 1 have
always wanted to do," Klein
said.
Klein said he believed
being the opening act for

he would love to do it again.
"I'm excited to be play-
ing on the same stage as Dick

Yipper-Ooo! Peter Dennis
tucks audience in for a night

Peter Dennis was on campus recently,
performing in "Oh, Bother!", the show
based on dramatic readings from the
work of Winnie tfw Pooh creator A.A.Milne
Best known as the voice of Wirmie the
Pooh, Dennis delighted the audience by tak-
ing requests on what thev wanted to hear
At first the audience \v js slightly on the
shy side, but they warmed up pretty quickly
when Dennis asked if they wanted to hear In
Which Tigger is Unboutuxd from "The House
At Pooh Comer". Suddenly, suggestion.s
rained in from everv din-ction.
In addition, he also read two other sto-
ries from Pooh Comer : In Which Pooh Invents
a New Came and Eeyore loins In, and In Which It
Is Shown That Tiggers Don't Climb Trees. He
also read several works from "When We Were
Very Young" and "Now We Are Six", two
books of his own poetry.
Not only did the audience receive a
good share of bedtime stories and a welcome
return to childhood's innocence, they also
learned a little bit about Milne's life
Reading from an easy chair to an all-
ages audience, Peter Dennis managed to
Si'cure sweet dreams that evening to each and
ever} attendet.

Matthew Sweet recently
rtx:ked a sold-oul crowd at
the Vic Theatre in Chicago.
The show got underway artiund 7:30
p.m , with a band called Dog's Eye
View opening for Sweet.
Dog's Eye View played a smok-
ing 45-minutc set as a preview to
their brand new finit-t-ver CD.
It their album is anywhere near
as good as their live performance was
on Sunday, they will be huge within
six months.
Dog's Eye View s<:iunded a great
deal like the Black Crowes, with a
hint of a harder influence.
Not many opening acts can claim
that they would be worth the price of
admission if some natural disastCT
occurred just before the headliner
came on - this is one of the select few.
When Dog's Eye View finished
their set, the crowd roared in
approval and then quieted down in
anticipahon of Sweet making the lat-
est in a string of several recent
Chicago appearances.
He kicked off his set with a rol-
licking version of an earlier tune, then
proceeded to blast through many of
his better known songs, including
Girlfriend. Sick of Myself, and his most
recx-nt sma.sh, Wc'nf the Same.
During onstage banter. Sweet
took a couple of minutes to follow in
the footsteps of Eddie Vcdder knock-
ing certain radio stations (without
naming names) for not promotiong
him. Musically, he touched on a bit of
everything he's done, from his earlier
songs to his latest album, lOOX) Fun.
A couple of the highlights were
from the latest album; a rocking ver-
sion of Not When I Need It and the
moving / Almost Forgot.
If his latest album is being hailed
as his best yet and given rave
reviews, there aren't words strong
enough to describe his refreshingly
exhilarating on-stage performance.
Not present at the show were the
lighters so often seen during slow
songs, but the crowd did one better.
They sang along with every
word, from the beginning to the end
of the encores, and for two hours the
Vic Theatre rocked in unison.
Sweet is a phenon\enal bundle of
energy ruiuung rampant onstage. On
a scale of 1 to 10, his live performance
would rate a 500!

Our View
OJ trial brings out
the bad apples
The News Media has been on a feeding
frenzy of sensationalism since the begin-
ing of the O) trial. At first it was just big
news, but it swiftly became a national
past-hme, with all the blood, love trian-
gles, and fingerpointing of a superior
soap opera.
But just when you thought the dust had
settled, the news media got it's second
helping from glory-seekers a.k.a. anyone
who says they kirow O.J. Simpson.
And boy does it bite.
Aside from all the super computer tech-
nologies and fancy literary schemes, the
resurgence of O.J. media hype has illumi-
nated the trashy ambulance-chasers,
seperating them from the real journalists
who pride themselves on informing with
a bit of entertainment, not the other way
around.
For the past 474 days the world has
been bombarded by anything O. J. From
white Bronco's to designer shoes.
After a total of approximately 16 mil-
lion dollars was spent on the "biggest
waste of the century,".
The murderer is still out there.
But there still one question loft to be
answtTt'd VVhjt is t'\N >;(nn,i; to covtT
for the next vear now that Ihi tii<il is
over"
Gimmentary iheHaAinger
An addicts confession
Jon O'Brien. The Ed's View
I admit it I ifx\ lousy and
immature aK>ut it but I have
to come clean I I am 1 am
an OJ junkie I UxA in even,
single bit oi mformation I
could on what was regardt\l
m the Inal ot the centun,'
Now that it's o\er. I've got to
accifpt that I have a problem
and leam to o\ ercome it
In order to east' rnvselt
out ot mv lull, I've accumu-
lated a plethora ot mtorma-
tion regarding the trial. The
media, in its infinite (lack of)
wisdom, has expUnted the
subject far beyond what it
should have tieen, Ted
Turner, Gtxl bles.s his heart,
has provided all W.CXX) pages
of testimony to be down-
loaded from Cable News
Network's Internet site
(http://wiini>.cnncomAJS/0}/ir
rdkt/mdexhtml in case you'ne
wondering) I've got both
audio and video nx'ordings
on tape. I've got my scrap-
btx>ks o( newspaper articles.
And of course, my prized col-
lection of Naked Gun
laserdiscs. It will last... for
now.
I could also partake in the
racial controversy that seems
to be swivpmg the nahon
Not that the defensi' hasn't
tanned the flames by bring-
ing race into the closing argu-
ments and involving mem-
t>t>rs of the Nation of Islam, a
group accused of racial dis-
crimination, or anything As a
member of the media. I know
just how well we can endless-
ly beat a dead horse.
Even after the verdict of
the debate dies off, we 11 shll
hear about it. I can laugh at
Tom Brokaw ponder over
why there aren't more
African-American country
mu.sic stars I could also pon-
der on why there aren't any
African-Americans in hockey.
Or I could ponder why there
are so few Caucasians in foot-
ball and rap music.
Does anyone rememtaer
what else is on tele\'ision or
the radio? I'm sure there was
something to watch before
the trial. What did people
talk about before the Simpson
trial? Did our forefathers just
walk around all the time? I
turned on the radio and
heard about some ballplayer
named Dennis Rodoian join-
ing a professional sports team
called the Chicago Bulls.
People tell me they won three
World Championships in a
row once but I can't remem-
ber that far back. What are all
of the talk shows going to
comment on' We'll never
know what David
Letterman's Top Ten List is
going to l>e, either. The jokes
are going to slowly die off,
the repetitive running of the
Bronco chase will stop, and
everyone will go on with
their hves.
I admit I have a problem.
I admit that I need help. I am
coping with my problem and
I hope you can all find it in
your hearts to forgive me tor
my disease. I could only
dream for so much.
And now back to my reg-
ularly scheduled life.

THIS IS
Nsr A
RAC I AL
ISSUE///
.3VK^-3CfX
t's startling to hear how many people think O.J. Simpson is guilty. Most of
them ramble off some vague comment about evidence painting clearly and
how they would vote were they jurors
No matter
The e\'idence acquits Simpson. And witlKnil benefit of hearing the most
damnmg piece of evidencv, the jury still made the conect decision and found
Simpson innocent because there was reasonable doubt
That overwhelming, yet unintroduced piece of evidence was made by Mark
Fuhrman. Los Angeles pi>lice officer and racist-at-large
Without the courage to talk in front of the jurors, Fuhrman took the fifth ameivd-
ment repeatedly, shruggmg off answenng questions that everyone had a right to
know.
And, paraphrasing Simpson attorney fohnnie Cochran, it was the biggest
shock in the biggest trial F^specially when Fuhrman uttered in full view of the
camera, when asked if he had planted evidence involving this case, his right
against self-incrimination.
Where were the families of Goldman
and Brown when Fuhrman said this?
Why were they not questioning police
tactics and asking if, after all, there was rea-
sonable doubt?
Where were the millions of armchair
lurists after the revelation that a knowingly
racist cop hinted that he planted evidence?
Instead ol asking, and probmg the inci-
dent further, everyone chose to bury it and
keep laying blame on Simpson
Who were the real monsters then; the
Fuhmians, the Simpsons, or the families and
supporters of tfie murder victims' families?
There is just as much responsibility to
consider all the evidence. Minuscule drops
of bltHxl, tampered with at best, untraced
gloves and a yelping dog do not a court deci-
sion make
For J vear and ti)ur months SimpMxi had his right to be considered inno-
cent until proven guilty taken jwj\
Seemingly weekly beratings trom Goldman's dad and Brown's sister did
the )i*t and made Simpson a murderer without direct pnxif
That was wnmg.
Without a doubt, the families of Goldman and Brown have suffered great
losses And they deserve to find out the truth
But that gives them no right to convict Simpson in the public, with no proof
of a direct link to the murders
A vvife-K'atet Simpson is And his guilt m that aspect is not arguable. But that
shouldn t cloud the issue of a murder
l>icf M.ircKi Clark and her band of merrv lawyers attempted to make his
past a motivjiiDiul ijctor it was Cochran s right and privilege to find racial
issu.^ that were pertinent to the tnal. One hand washes the other, wouldn't you

(incumbent), ludith A Hes»,
Richard M Hefner and BJ

The candidates pro-
posed their ideas on how
Harper could best meet the
demands of the community
«ik1 successfully move into
(he next cenhiry. First and
foremost, the need for up-
dated computers in the tabs.
All cattdidates agree

Board of Trustees Candidate
up-
assess the best way to
date the computer labs.
The .second issue dis-
cumed was the declining
enrollment at Harper.
Without speculating on
win, the candidates
proposed ways in
which the schtKil could
attract more students.
Heise sug-
gested "We need lo do
more marketing direct-
ed toward young peo-
ple on the radio sta-
tions that they listen to.
Petiple need to be told about
all the excellent programs at
Harper."
Judith Hess added "It
rots my siKks that people
don't realize what a high cal-
iber schtKil Harper is."
John Coste added that
"The programs need to he
evalualed to keep up with the
changing community. '
The proposed Building
VV " was also talked about at
the torum. B.J. Taylor said
"There is money allocated by
the state for a fine arts build-
ing and Harper needs a Ae-
ater facility to catch up with
other colleges."
Most candidates agree
that a fine arts building at
Harper would be somewhat
of a coup - attracting addi-
Honal income from renting
the theater and proposed
conference center
Students do have a
voice on who will serve on
ttie Board by voting m the
local election Nov. 7.

priorities.
After aU. Clark wants lo
make sure he sees the Wildcats
bcgm the new season with their
annua] midnight practice Oct IS.
and he's not about to let anyone
beat him to the fRwit of the line
Since Sept 29, Clark has
been spending his days and
nights outside UK's Memorial
Coliseum, patiently wailing for
the doois to open and the 1995-%
basketball season lo begin. With
his van parked nearby, Clark sits
on a lawiKhair during the day,
talking to students or leading a
book. At night, he zips himself up
in his sleeping bag and drifts oft to
deep.
Clark, who's followed UK
athletics fvls entire liie, sutfered a
stroke m 1990 and has been
unable to work since then When
the end of September rolled
around, he figured he might as
well head down to the Coliseum
to stake out his place in line
"It's something lo do with
my time while the weather's still
nice' " Clark told The Kentucky
Kernel, the UK student newspa-
per. 'U I'm going to be sithng
around, I may as well be silting
here"
Clark's family relieves him
lor a couple of hours each day so
the UK fanatic can head home and
dean himself up. "Now if I didn't
have a shower every day. that
would upset me n»I bad " Clark
toU the Kernel.
The former Marine says he
braves the rain and wind all for
Kentucky Blue. "U you catch a
cold, you'll gel over it," Clark
said. "1 don't worry about that"

CARBONDALE. Ill - Sen. Paul
Simon (D-Ill.) may be leaving
Congress when his current term
expires, but that doesn't mean
he'll give up lectuiing
Instead of trying to per-
suade fellow poUticians with his
unique oratory style, Simon will
spend his tune in the classroom.
After Simon, 66, voluntari-
ly leaves the Senate once his sec-
ond term is complete in January
1997, he wiU head a new SIU
department on public policy,
teaching classes in ioumalisn and
political science.
"This will give me an
opportunity to continue to focus
on the iweds of my home region
as well as Illinois, the nation and
the international community,"
said Simon, who resides in nearby
Makanda.
SIU officials say the new
Paul Simon Chair in Public Policy
will focus on the ways policies
affect and are affected by govern-
ment leaders, journalists and
members of society
"We belie\'e this scholarly
effort can not only help make pub-
lic policy more effective but ele-
vate the level of public political
discourse in this country" said
SIU Chancelkir Ted Sanders.
Before being elected to the
US. Senate in 19M, Simon served
in the House, as well as in stale

Salzburg are .1 une s«>mester
trip Costa Rita is j ti\ e week,
program that runs only in the

The Canterbury trip
allows exchange studentt to
learn in a univtrsity with
other Bntish students. The
students take 12 credit hours
which are all transferable
"The kid* really get
involved, there is a lot of
interaction," says Friend -
Westney, "One student
worked at a radio station,
anollier was on student sen-
ate and another was involved
in sports. '
Anybody can go The
pnce tag on the trip is about
as much tme semester of a
state college. Students don't
have to study a foreign lan-
guage or have an exceptional-
ly high grade point average
lo qualify.
Money is a central
pmblem There is not enough
funding for the program or
lor the students themselves.
However, over 100 students

For many students acruw tht^'

For years, students at Manaiieid
University in Mansfield, Pa. have
maintained that North Hall is haunt-

pus legend, is the ghost of a studiml
who committed suicide by leaping
over a railing through an open atrium
in the building
The building, which was built
in 1874, has been vacant for many
years, giving Sarah plenty of room to
roam. Mansfield students say they

Mysterious Lee family 'curse' still unsolved
Laura Garrison
Arts & Entertainment Editor
Bruce Lee and his son Brandon
both passed away More their
tune. Some say that there waua
curse on the tamily, lasting tor three
generations Coincidenoe? Perhaps,
but not likely
The curee theory originated
when Lee purchased a home in
crhina, possibly mvoking the anger of
the neighborhixxi resident demons.
Many Chines believe that \( a home
IS not in alignment with the spirihial
worid and the natural environment.
bad things will happen lo the inhabi-
tant. The inhabitant can take one oi
several paths toward preventing the
cune from taking effect. The hoow
can be torn down and completriy
rebuilt or the owner can consult a spe-
ciaUi.1 who can make necessary
adjustments to accomniodate for the
misalignment.
The former owner had consult-
ed such a specialist. wh« placed a
mirror on an outside wall to compen-
sate and protect the inhabitants The
day before Bruce Lee died, there had
been a typhoon which blew the mir-
ror off the house Lee took a painkiller
for a headache, went to sleep, and
never wok* up. The cause o< death
according to the comner's report was
a brain edema (swelling) Lee was in
top physical condition, and there was
no explanation for any swelling
which was found
Like Father Like Son
The death of Brandon Lee has
also been called accidental Lee was
killed on March 31, l^^ dunng film-
ing of nil- Cmu\ There were some
fairly bizarre cisrumstances leading
up to his death
The shoot was plagued by acci-
dents A carpenter wa^ -.everely
burned in a freak accident, a disgrun-
tled sculptor drove his car through
the plaster shop, and another crew
member drove a screwdriver tfirough
his own hand.
The scene during which Lee
died was a flashback and called for a
closeup on the weapon used, so the
props people were compelled to use a
real gim loaded with harmless blanks.
The police have now theorized that
somehow a lead tip had been lodged
inside the barrel of the gun When the
blank engaged, it was the equivalent
of live ammunition. When the actor
pulled the trigger, the gunpowder
created a bang, <md the bullet which
had been lodged in the barrel pro-
pelled itself out of the gun and mto
Lee's abdomen.
The Crow was Brandon Lee's
last motion picture before his
suspiciously untimely death.

The Harbinger
Our View
Another example of the
school's leaders looking
out for our interests
As you stand outside Building A during the
•ariy ntomii^ hours of Halloween waiting for
your registration appoirttment cards, may we
suggest that you gaze upon the proposed sight of
Building W. The new building would occupy the
grassy area to the west of Buildings L and P.
Is this a Halloween nightnuire come true, or
are you really waiting in the freezing cold in
order to get one of the scarce lab-science classes at
Harper?
Have your registration prayers been
answered? Is Harper College iiwreasing the num-
ber of math and sdeiKe classes available to stu-
dents? Of course not. It's the same old story each
semester. We (the students) start lining up as
early as 10:00 p.m. the night before the registra-
tion cards are issued.
Students are forced into this ritual as a result
of the lack of math and science classes offered at
Harper. Each semester we hope the Harper
adniinistration, in all it's infinate wisdom, will
hear our plees.
But no, the powers that be at Harper College
have decided that Building W, will house a per-
forming arts theater, art gallery, and conference
rooms.
The performing arts theater is expected to
attract a higher caliber of artists to Harper
College. It is hoped that these performances
would bring increased revenue to the college.
The conference rooms will be equipf>ed with
state of the art techiwlogy in hc^>es of attracting
corporate dollars for Harper's coffers. What will
Harper do with all of the money? Candidates for
the Board of Trustees were unable to answer that
question.
Each member of the Board of Trustees
should be required to experience the registration
process first hand. They just might catch a clue as
to whose interests are the most vital on a college
camptis.
Who benfits the most from Building W? Is it
the students of Harper College? NOT! Is it for
Harper's power elite? You've hit the jackpot. or
have they?
Racism: You can't fix it alone
Jon O'Brien • The Ed's
Racism tia!> been a pretty hot
topic lately, especially after
the Simpson trial, and more
recently, the Milhon Man
March What's worse, far tcx>
many people seem to inter-
ested in pomtmg fingers and
accusing everyone else of the
pixiblem instead of actually
working to correct it. I'm sure
that other countries ravaged
by poverty and disease are
absolutely sick with us and
the way we complain about
our happy little nation not
being happy enough.
Contrary to a lot of
opinions, whites are not the
most racist people in
Amenca, and the infamous
march only goes to prove it. If
the intent of the March was
exactly wliat the organizers
stated it to be, most people
would be in favor o( it — I
know I would But when the
organizers restrict the march
to one ethnic group and one
sex, s<->mething doesn't sound
right
When the oraturs blab
the racist remarks through
View
our nation's capital, the good
is overshadowed by the hate
lihat is blatantly present. This
doesn't sound like a message
of peace and unity to me.
Let me make one thing
perfectly clear: I am for
America. I am not pro- white
or pro-black, pro-this or pro-
that I've heard far too many
people in the last couple
weeks tell me that I'm a
racist, both in person and in
the media. Hypocrites like
Louis Farrakhan and Al
Sharpton are telling attendees
of the March that "the white
man" has to be pulled out of
government before any
change is to occur, and thai
call mra racist?!
The hypocrisy of this
whole march is amazing. I've
heard an awful lot of obnox-
ious rumors about it: whites
are afraid of black power,
whites are afraid of too many
black people in one area, and
blacks think that white
supremacy is the root of all
evil. Tell me, if whites are so
afraid of blacks and so para-
noid of black power, then
why are blacks the ones who
are fearing "the white
supremacy"?
It gets worse If I hear
another idii't JNk for their 40
acres and a mule, I'm going
to scream. Hey, luibody gave
me 40 acres and a mule,
either! I live in a house on a
quarter acre in Schaumburg.
And furthermore, don't
expect me to apologize to
anyone for injustices commit-
ted a hundred years ago. Just
because most slave drivers
were white doesn't mean that
I am one of them. I wasn't
around for it and neither
were you.
The fact is controlling
racism, much less ending it,
will only happen if everyone
works towards it.
WE need to work to
tame this beast. WE must
work, as an undivided whole,
to bring an end (or at least
some control) to racism. Yet
with the way my race has
been slandered lately, I'm cer-
tainly not any more inclined
to help out now than I was a
month ago.
Above all else, keep in
mind that reverse discrimina-
tion is still discrimination.
The only difference between
Mark Fuhrman lying on the
stand and Louis Farrakhan
lying to the masses is that
Farrakhan is more popular.
They are both bigots, they are
both racists, and they are cer-
tainly both dangerous. And
that's a real shame.

Farrakhan's Million racist, bigoted man march?
JM. Fuller • American Independent
In 1%9 Maitin Luther King )r atgi-
ni/ed a inarch on Washington- His
goal w»» a nonvioUmt ptotesi for
civil nghts
Whjt he accomptished that day
IS »tiU impacting American «H.>t'ty
today more favorably than U>uis
Farrakhan and his tupforKn would
bother to admit.
It is lwcau«e of this failure that
Farrakhan orgaiuzed hi» own 'Million
Man March."
The goal he staled is one of
atonement, reconciliation and a com-
ing together of all black men.
This from a man who has a hi»-
lory of bigotry and racism; anti-semi-
shsm; wh«> shows no indication of
utefdit^ these views any hme noon.
And it i» the fact that many black
men, for whatever rea«>n. Iistwied to
him; marched at his beckoning, know-
ing he is a racist, thai frustratn and
bewilders whiles
How is it a man like Farrakhan is
able to gather such a quantity of men,
why IS It they would dare to come at
the beckoning of this lunatic; is this
just the beginning of Farrakhan's cru-
sade, and will others Mwn follow?
It is questions like these that an-
on the minds of many Ameriuns
nahonwide.
This man-h has created a spark
for Farrakhan and now he believes he
is a 'dream come true," a savior of
MNtS.
He lavor^ himself a n»le model
for black men Will they oblige him.
what would tlie consiquences be'
There has been much debate on
the validity of the march, what it
meant, if anything, whether or not it
was significant
It may he that the only signifi-
cance was the number of black men
whoattendrd Regardless of the actu-
al size. It wa.s the largest gathering of
black men recorded in American hislo-
And how many of them were-
»i«e-in»pired when Farrakhan totik the
Mage for thi.'i 'nio»i important of
events" and without wanung, though
unsurpnsingly, ranted and raved
about the number nineteen?
Those that did show a pmlDUnd
interest in his nonsensical speech were
perhaps tlie same ones that displayed a
poster depicting a black figure kicking
a white figure in the backside, with
words on top reading, "Now it's our
turn". Our turn for what?
Farrakhan would be most proud
ot tbfse black racists had he seen their
poster
But with all the many lackeys he
used for bodyguards, ttiey may have
obscured his view.
But if not. the hilarious bullet
proof ilwild he hid behind mav have
Is it not mtereshng to noti- this
Louis Farrakhan who pttifesv'^'s »uch
great love and joyfulness to the men
who came; expresses the urgent need
for unity and oneness; to not be afraid
to stand together as brotfiers-all from
beflind a Injllet proof shield
Irony certainly does come in all
shapes and si^es and colors
And what other dn\ fling [argon
did vomit from his per\ erted mouth'
"My people havi- validated me,"
Farrakhan said triumphantly from
behind his safety sheild.
If true, then this march may be
reinterpreted to be the million racist,
bigoted man march.
"God spoke through me,"
Farrakhan said pointing uncontrolably
to himself. Didn't Hitler say something
of the like in the beginnmg of his
"super race" crusade? And what
about Saddam Hussein?
"The root of the nation's suffer-
ing is white supremacy," Farrakhan
announced.
What about his goal of bladi
supremacy' Will that solve the
nation's problems?
Is it white supremacists who put
guns in the hands of blacks and order
them to kill as many "brothers" and
"sisliTs" as possible? Is it white
supa'macists who order blacks to sell
drugs and beat their wives and chil-
dren? Is it the fauh of white suprema-
cists that has kept LA blacks from
moving up, or is it their own procrasti-
nabon?
Now the match is over No mote
idle speeches from meaningless
lunahcs. No more blame displacing
or frivolous name calling.
The men have treked home
thinking they have somehow been
changed by all this; thinking that tfiis
march has somehow^ made a differ-
ence; that things will now be
"changed".
And has it? Or is it a case of
"oidy time wHl tell?" If so, how much
hme does it take in order to dissuade
murder, rape and drug dealing? That's
the 64,000 dollar question.
Wham bam, a
baseball slam ...

The stnke is o\er and thes could poaaiMy be the best

The Cubs didn't have to waste their fans tim*- going to

Regardless of what happens in the World Series and the

have remamed faithful to the game that left them.
Phone cops a real joke

Paul Floden • Down the river
When Ed O'Neil parades around in a
beater with "Phone Patrol"
scrawled on tfie sides, we laugh at
its satirical ludicricy
But should we?
After years of having no controls or
standards, and several deaths as well, the
government finally set legal guidelines for
bungee-jumping
At about the same hme, the Di-partmcni
of Defense releas«-d The Internet to the public
They gave open, twcvway tmpersonable
communication to America, bowed, turned
and walked away, without a thought as to not
only the possible but very probable marufesta-
ticin oi a worst case scenario.
And now it is beyond control.
In the movie Time Cop, the first thing the
government did when time travel was invent-
ed was implement a ptilice force to patrol the
time stream; they set up controls V\T\y is it
the LVpt. of Del couldn t or didn't en* ision
the dangers of something called cyberspace'
Did they think that on an informahon
superhighway with nii speed limits, in a
county without law enforcement, the general
public (or any moron with a computer) would
behave and act responsibly?
If they think the public is that honest,
maybe they should reevaluate the purpose of
the IRS
The heart is naturally wicked, as both
leUgion and Darwin would agree.
Getting away with murder is just anoth-
er challenge for a modem man, and now it's
been made even easier, not only by unprofes^
sional activihes of the LAPD, but by the blind-
ers on the rich bitch known as justice.
In most cases it is easy to trace where
things have come from on-line, but with the
furtfier development of service providers and
other little nooks and crannies, it's only a mat-
ter of time before transmission is untraceable
and things like pornography become more
than just conunonplace, they become screen
savers.
Not that I'm against all that, but tiwn, 1
don't have kids But I do have privacy. At
least at the moment.
However, someday I'll be on-line every-
day with the rest of the world - Going to
work, paying the bills, even dating from the
comfort of a Mac.
Entire cyberdbes will be built within
tlie confines of a hard drive, complete with
churches, arcades, banks and brothels.
Every step taken - unmonilored.
Every action - anonymous.
An uncontrollable domicile where
I'very resident is a nowhere man, and every
mmutc is spent experwively
But balance is universal. And although
every step may be obsfucated, the trail will
remain for open view, and your past will be
accessible to any person or group to use for
their own purposes, ethical or not.
And that's the price you pay for
Anarchy in a cyberstate.

Tom Strzewski named new diving coach
Susan Radcmachir
Spoms Editor
Tom Stncwski hwbMn
named the new diving
coach for the Harper
College swimming and div-
ing team.
Strsewski spent three
years as a diving coach at
Hinsdale South high sjchool
wheiv he placed all but one
•cnior diver at a National
Collegiate Athletic
Association Division I school.
"Diving is a very relaxing
sport to coach," Strzewski
said
"I got into diving when
my five year old son took up
the sport. I took the time to
learn about it,' Strzewski
stated. In an effort to increase
his knowledge of the sport,
Strzewski has received
videos from diving coaches
acn»s the nation.
"1 came to Harper
because I wanted to devote
my time to diving only,"
Strzewski said. "Harper has a
good program and hard
working athletes."
Strzewski also wanted
to spend more time with his
wife and thn?t? children. "I've
been able to some of my kids'
games and it's been great,"
Strzewski stated.
Strzewski goes to work
in his Wood Dale auto shc^ at
four o'clock in the/noming.
He follows a day's work by
bringing his One Percent
Theory to the diving pool in
Building M. "My tfieory is
that if you come to practice
every day, that you'U
improve one per cent each
day," Strzewski said.

t dominalcd the NFL
each and every week, except
for the embarrassn>ent in
Miami. The 1995 Bears can't
stop any of their opporfents
on defense and are scoring
points at an unbelievable
pace.
When the game
ended the Bears had won
and fans were raving about
the half-time celebration.
"Sweetness" Walter Payton
spoke of how much fun it
was to perform for the fans
and represented the champi-
onship trophy to the Bear's
faitfiful fans.
From now until ti\e
next championship, every
Bear team will be compared
to the champions of 1985.
Fair or not, being
critical is part of being a
Bears fan.

"A lot of what happens is caused by our num-

The defense is led by defensive end Will Ford
who has nine and a half sacks on ifie season despite
a broken finger ttiat he sustained in Harper's Oct 7

Dfensive Coordinator Tim Hatfield gave the
defense the nickname "Bad to the Btine."
In addition to Fold, the "Bad to the Done"

remained in a bank account
since. The original award of
$14,714 has nearly tripled,
but students and faculty
members say the stigma of
the award is reason enough
to stay awjv
"Mr. tJeBarr had obvi-

many students, that is reason
enough not to take the
money" says Malik ri-,-\i-nin,
a university historian.
"Students have suggested
different uses for the fund,
such as cultural awareness
programs, but so far nothing
has been done because ot the
award's guidelines '
DeBarr's family has
stipulated that the award be
presented in his name and be
used for research in tfie phys-

DeBarr, who joined
OL"s faculty as a chemistry
professor in IH'^2, served as
V ice president of the universi-
ty from HfW until 1423.
DeBarr helped organize OV
schools in chemistry, physics,
pharmacy and petroleum
engineenng. He was fired by
the Board of Regents for his
continued participation in the
KKK. where he served as the
grand dragon of Clklahoma.
Chemistry Hall, on the

after DeBarr until 1988, when
OU's faculty senate voted to
remove the name.

tastic when you have small

did. Lone Star has enough
excitement lo keep everyone
entertained for the evening. At
one point, the manager turned
up the volume on the constant
flow of country music. With
that, the waiters and waitress-

out the establishment to do
some line dancing.
The service was very

• Look out bad guys of
the world, James Bond will be
returmng to a theater near you
November 17. Pierce Brosnan
debuts as the fifth actor to
play Ian Remming's dashing
secret agent. Brosnan will be
following in l! ' ' ps of
S-an Conner-.
La/anb\, Roger .Mi'orr. , and
most recently Timothv Dalton.
The newest (X)7 flick is
"(ioldeneve" and yes, it has a
new edition ol Bond Girls.
Whether you re .1 liond
fan, or a first
timer, now is the
time to stop by
your lavc>rite
video rental
store and check
out Bond
movies of the
past. Why not
sample each of
the three most
famous men (o
play the martini
drinking(shaken,
not stirred),
ladies' man who works for the
British goverrunent between,
during, and after dales?
There is the ultimate
James Bcmd movie that is
credited as being the movies
that really put Bond on the
HoUywotxi map:
"Goldfinger ' Sean Connery is
magnificent as the secret agent
who tries to prevent the evil
Mr Goldfinger from breaking
into Fori Knox. Not to be
missed is Goldfinger's diaboli-
cal man servant CWd Job.
"Spy" is where Bond
first meets the most orthodon-
tic of his adversaries. Jaws can
cut through just about every
substance with his metal teeth.
Ringo Starr's wife, Barbara
Bach, is (X)7's gal pal in this
imderwater thriller Keep your
eye out for the Lotus sports
car that agent Q "lends" to
Bond.
Finally, there is the most
recent man to ooze Bond's
charm. Acior Timothy Dalton
debuted as Bond in "The
Living Daylights" m 1987.
Weapons dealers and corrupt
Soviet officials tangle with
Bond as the scenery spans the
former Czechoslovakia,
Austria, Tangiers, imd
Afghanistan. Opium, dia-
monds, and assassinations add
to the thnll of this tlick.
If these titles don't interest
you, there are plenty more to
choose from. James Bond can
usually l»e found in the Action
.\d venture section of most
video rental stores Some
stores even gi> e Bond his own
si-c-ti(<n within the .Adventure
section so customers don't
have to seek out each title.

Might a suggestion be made for the
next election- will the voters please actu-

are on major issues.
Those of you who were at the student
forum where attendants could ask the
candidates of their opinions on various
issues might recall some of the answers
given You might recall Mr. Co>te doz-
ing off. But the one thing vou won't
remember is a stellar pertormance gi\ en
by either of the two trustees fortunate
enough to be elected- Judith Hess and
Richard Gillette Contrary to some opin-
ions, accessibility of administrators is
not a personal problem. Come to think
of it, you won't remember ani/thm:^
about Gillette because he didn't e\ en
show up. Yet you'll find a shining
endi>rsement in The Daili/ Herald for both
of them.
Of course, that's just life at Harper
We won t even mention any examples ot
questionable outcomes from student

tor people like me to get

It vou think I'm trving
to be •.arcastic. serve your-

vou're right. It's a a-al
sh.ime that ttie titi/ensot

other< hav e died tor. But
given the stale ot this coun-
try s wilues todav. I can
think ot an avvtul lot of
people whose views I don't
tare to se€' represented in
the polls
I Used to get mad at
people who chost' nut to
vote I ranted and raved
about how It was their dutj'
lo take the time to resean.-h
the decisions to be made
and actually go out and
punch holeh in that little
voting slip, riiey arguc\J
that thi'v would rather not
M'te than vote without
know ing w hat their voting
tor I think I in starting to
stv things from their angle.
Could vou imagine
who would be in office it
everviine was rec)uired to
vote"" I don't Mew Irent
Resnor or of Nine Inch
Nails or Luke Perr>' of
Bci'erly Hi/i.s, 9V2lt) tame to
K> worthy candidates to be
m command of anything.
Maybe we could put
Sir Mixalot or Ihe Beastie
Boys into the White House.
There'd he a dance party orj
the White House front lawn
every night. Why? Because
ltd be really cooV. What are
you, gi.x>fy c.ir wimething?!
Not to say that the
current bunch of meatheads
i.s a notable improvement
With people like Bob
Packwixx), some would
argue that any change is
better than none.
So, from me, and
everyone else who actually
cares about our scKiety, I
thank you. I thank you for
your apathy I thank you
for having the gcKKi sense
to let people like me make
the decisions around here.
Of course", if vou
don't like the divisions I'm
making, you could always
attempt to vote during the
next election But it's just a
thought
Now It wf can )ust
keep the Clinton backers in
thjiir easy chairs next year.

Lfetters to the Editor
Was Halloween in the last Harbinger issue?
Dear Editor
■^our Halloween issue was
really scar)'. Your article
"Farrakhan s Millicm racist, bigot-
ed man march'" was wonderfully
fnghterung, even if one discounts
the punctuation and spelling. One
can just imagine the costume
worn while if was being written—
white sheet, burning cross. SiiKe
the march generates such intelli-
gent discussion, raises such cen-
tral concerns, and confronts many
of us with personal and political
confusion, the presence of tfiis
pitxe in our college paper reminds
me of the warnings about tainted
candy prevalent at this tune of
year
Karen Keres
Professor of English
Please don't eat Harper's geese for Thanksgiving
To Whom it May Concern:
I am very disturbed about a
recent article printed in the
Harper News, "What is the
answer to controlling the geese
count?"
What ever happened to liv-
ing m Harmony w itii nature and
all Its living creatures' 'iou put a
pond on your property, what did
you expect to see?? Surely not an
empty pond!
Why does it seem that all
our answers to so-called "animal "
problems is to eat them, kill them,
wear them or relcK'ate them
"Man" has completely destroyed
much of nature and ils creatures,
because we continue to do these
thmgs. Therefore because ' nian"
continues to do these tilings, ani-
nmls, birds and other living crea-
tures have no chaiKe but to find
sources of food, water and shel-
ter.
The aaswer to your so-
called problem is very simple, fill
in your pond or learn to under-
stand , accept and appreciate
natun? and its species.
I will continue to follow
what your decision will be on this
topic and if it's one of harsh
judgement or cruelty -you will
have a fight on your hands. 1

Coalition and will not allow those
things to happen so close to my

Who Among Students in American
lunior Colleges" program
SiiKe 1968, Harper College has
participated in the "Who's Who" pro-
gram This program provides recogni-
tion tor outstanding students in junior
and community colleges across the
country. Each student selected for this
recognition is listed in a biographical
volume which has become a respected
reference source for colleges and busi-
nesses, and as a life long service, they
may use the "Who's Who" office as a
permanent reference source /file for
prospective employers.
This recognition means a great
deal to the students selected.
At Harper, the selection commit-
tee IS comprised of students, faculty, I
and staff. A three-fold criterion is used I
for evaluating applicants. 1 ) Academic I
standing, 2.) Partiapation and leader-
ship in curricular and co-curricular j
activities, and 3 ) Community service.
In addition, candidates must have com-
pleted at least 24 semester hours by the I
time they are considered.
If students feel they may possibly I

applying is early January. Forms are]
available for this purpose.

Individuals can take classes indepen-
dently or combine basic and advanced

for not-for-profit boards and major cor-
porations needing speafic framing in
Ifie area of volunteerism

Faculty Spotlight: Michael Harkins
Anyone who has History 112 or Western civi-
lization may know Mr Michael J Harkins
Always well dressed in a suit and tie, Harkins
lectures enthusiastically to his history clas.ses.
The "cold war" lecture can be very bor-
ing, but when Harkins tells of his own experi-
etKC as a child, hiding under a desk during an
air raid drill, students can experience real life
history in the classroom.
From digging up artifacts all around the
workl to researching govertunent documents,
Hatkins actually "practices what he preach-
es."
Talking about his personal experiervres
and researching the things that he speaks
■bout, are two of the reasons why we have
chosen to put Harkins in our faculty spotlight.
The following is an interview done with Mt.
Harkins:
Occupation: Instructor of history
Birth date: a long time ago
Birthplace: Omaha, Nebraska
Marital status: married
Type of car. an old one
Favorite "pig out " food: peaches in the
can
Last good movie you saw: "Nicholas and
Alexandra"
Last good book you read: Writing for
Caesar
Your most vivid childhood memory:
doing archedogical field work, digging up
habitation sites
A phrase that best describes yourself:
A creator ot new knowledge in the field of his-
tory"
What do you like most about yourself:
the great interest 1 have in primary source his-
tory material
What do you like least about yourself: I
don t allow mvsf If enough leisure time
Most irrational ace Hanging from posts,
way in the air. trying to take pictures of sport-
ing events at the University of Nebraska
Prized possession: my family
Personal hero: William Jennings Bryant
Worst advice you ever got: Don't ever
ask for diiecti<ws when traveling in foreign
countnes, it just doesn't work
I knew I was grown up when: I went
away to college
Nobody knows I'm: really interested in
English history
If I wasn't a teacher I'd be: doing histori-
cal research
Students think I'm: Fair
If I've learned one thing in life it's:
When your in school, whether it's undergrad-
uate or graduate, attach yourself to an
instructor that is knowledgeable in the field
you plan to go onto. Have contact with them
other then just in class, because that is where
the real learning ccmtes from

tour. Ringo was touring, and George
Harrison was either in Austratu or Los
Angeles. So,' he notes, "they were very
hard to pm down at times But one was
always available to interview. For me it
was four years and two months of my life,
work-wise. For them, they're talking about
things that happened a kmg tune ago.
They were amazingly cooperabvc. I inter-

what Ringo said when he listened to the

Queen: Mercury's spirit lives on
Laura Garrison
>y«_4 fntcrtainment Editor
Rumor has it that befonr Ficddk
Mercury sucxumtMKi to AIDS
im Niwcmber 24. Wl, he had
sf>ent much time creating iww
musK— several albums worth. H«t
even got around to i«c«Niiin(t much
of ii befof* he paMfd away. It is
now available in slon». iu«t intimi-
for the hi>ltdays.
Queen
Mndt tn Hrm'tn
HoUywcxxl Kecunls
AiWr ttt Hflftvn m
the newest (and pratiably
last) ivtease fitnn Queen
There appears to be a
thematic examination of Mercury's
lost few years I°h» is evident m moit
ol the lyrics ol the aJbuni, hut most
obvious in the liner notes:
"Dedicated to the immottit sptril of
Freddie Mercury".
The disc opens with a
poignantly emotional "It's a Beautiful
Day" — appearing to be Itie words of
a man who does not want his immi-
nent death to interfere with the short
time he knows he has left.
Conhnuing with the title track.
Mercury seems to be exploring the
mie of fale in causing hts condition-
he seems to feel that his predicament
was somehow meant to be.
"Mother Love" is pertiaps the
most significant in its exploration of
death — Mercury seems to have
accepted that death is coming for
him and he wilt no longer be alone.
The mixing; pruduclion in particular
are significant in this scmg
(Mercury's last) — there are bits and
pieces of earlier songs interspersed
with the s<iund of scanning back-
wards Ihitmgh a CD. culminating in
llw erica of a baby.
"A Waller's Tate"
seems almost like an end-
ing— in the winter of his
life a man remembers ail
of tfie things he loved in
life. This would have been
a fitting ending, but in the
typical Queen style, there
has to be a reprise. That
in the replay of "It's a
Beautiful Day" The reprise almost
gives the impression of a man accept-
ing hts death and going to heaven,
recalling llie theme fn>m the first
song and expanding on it.
Made In Heaven is a must-have
for any Queen fan. This represents
Mercury at his best — if he had been
around tn see the release of this
album its un)ilu-ly that there would
have been much done differently.
The vocals probably weren't finished
beftrrv he passed away — it would not
have changed the (act that this is an
unbelievable finale to top off
Mercury's many musical achieve-
ments.
Din and a movie for the holidays
Susan Rademachcr • Dinner with Suz
Take time out from sliopping
this holiday season and treat
yourself to dinner and a
movie. There are two ways of
acccnnplishing ycmr goal, depend-
ing upon your finances and your
energy level.
The first option is to dine at a
restaurant and follow up dinner
with a movie at your favorite the-
ater. After pounding tfie walk-
ways of the Woodfield shopping
mall, you can choose from the
many eateries in tlie Woodfield
area. Ovnces range from the
newly opened Hooters to the jun-
gle adventure that awaits you at
The Rainforest Cafe. Whatever
your taste in food, and financial
capabilities, there's a place for
you. Top the evening off witti
James Bond's newest flick or
director Jodi Foster's "Home for
the Holidays."
If you've got something cozier in
mind, there is a second option
available. Try getting lake out
from one of die Woodfidd area
restaurants and rent a movie from
your favorite video rental store.
Denzel Washington and Gene
Hackman star in the newly
released "Crimson Tide." It's
right up your alley if you liked
"Hunt for Red October." Last
year's remake of the classic
"Miracle on 34* Street," is also
available for family viewing.
Take some time to relax and
cr^y the Holidays by treating
yourself to dinner and a movie.
As a reminder, discount movie
tickets are available at the

family entertainment. The
entire play takes place in a
dining loom and features
the lives of family members
from many different time
periods over the past 100
yean.
Earty scenes showed
life of the typical aristocrat-
ic bmily with simple prob-
lems such as a housewife's
bofcdom and a child's
inability to express himself
to his parents.
As the "Dining
Room" moves through time
the complex problems of
modem families are
explored. These scenes deal
with issues like extramarital
affairs, drug use and illness.

one thing remains constant
- the families use the dining

The Harbinger
Our View
Lookin' way
underdressed
Upon us once again is the cold, brisk
chills of winter, which bring with them the
omen of colds, flus, and even pneumonia.
Its simply amazing to see how many peo-
ple think they're invincible, walking
around ouldiwrs with their coats open, no
hats or scarves - and all in the name of
"cool". Gotta be "cool". Not caring
whether they get a cold or not because
they know if they do get sick, they'll just
see a doctor and go on with life as usual,
which most likely involves spreading it to
others in the process.
How arrogant! If these select idiots
choose to gamble their health to germs
which, unhl this century, could wipe out
classrooms full of kids in just one cozy
afternoon then should at least show a little
more common sense and responsibility
then, say, Congress.
When petiple go to school or work
coughing, hacking and sneezing (and wip-
ing their nose on the back oi their hand
when no one's looking), it's nn mjusHce to
those of us who give a damn about our
health and are taking measures to a\ oid
getting sick.
Why dress warm? Why pay for car
heater repairs? Why even shower in the
morning? It seems like no matter where
you go these days, there's always someone
two tacos short of a combination plate
who'll sit right by ya carrying upon their
breath the means by which to make you
miserable for at least a week or two.
It's hard enough to avoid catching
something, especially if you have children
who cough and sneeze all day without any
courtesy for others around them.
So please, if you don't feel good, stay
home, and don't be the obnoxious moron
who, just this once, has to bring enough
for the whole class.
Who taught you how to drive, anyway??

he's working at a liKal dri-
ving school if you've been on

I've got nothing against
one wanting to partake ui
some spirited driving. I've

road test offioals or have for-
gotten what we were taught
C>ne r«?eds only to look
out a classrtxim window to
se«' what 1 mean Harper's
Public Safety Office's Daily
Incident Report is clogged
with accidents that occur in
Harper's parking lots. On
numerous vxrcasions the
Public Safety officers have
assisted the Palatine Police
with accidents near the cam-
pus
Ask the student who
pulled another out of his car
because he misjudged a turn
Or any of the people who feel
it's their god-given nght to
hog a 30-minute parking
place all day (will the owner
of the silver late-model Ford
Probe who stayed there for
over nine hours strait please
move their vehicle?).
Let's think about the
awesome responsibility that
we casually lefer to as dri-
ving. Whether you drive a
brown Ford Pinto with an
orange d(H)r that is worth
more m parts than as a whole
or a $150,000+ Mercedes Benz
S600 coupe, you are m charge
of moving a couple thousand
pounds of steel and glass at
high speeds. While many of
us pnde ourselves on getting
a five foot vehicle through a
four foot space with a couple
inches to clear on Inith sides,
a necessary skill if you ever
venture into Chicago, we
seem to forget that these are
public streets that we need to
share with others — not the
Indianapolis Motor
Speedway
A large number erf
senior citizens can be blamed
for poor driving. You know
the ones, the land yacht of an
automobile merrily rolling at
40 miles per hour down the
toUway or the car that swings
out into traffic without any
regard to the other cars. Ask
The Harbinger's Business
Manager, who's Firebird was
the victim of an elderly bdy
who failed to get her late-
model Lincoln Continental
into the proper lane of traffic
while turning, and caused
over $400 in damage. What
bothers me is that the old
lady was so clueless she did-
n't even know she did any-
thing!
The next time you plan
on cutting somebody off
because you're running late,
think twice and act properly.
If you don't know how to
drive, get off the road and
quit risking the safety of care-
ful drivers like me.

With Rabin gone, what price peace?
T.W. Fuller. American Independent
It may not be a total shock to
hear that Yitzhak Rabin was
ajoassinaled It may not e\'en be
a total shock to hear that many peo-
ple, outraged by his actions to give
up control of the Gaza Strip. Golan
Heights, and West Bank, cheered
tor the gunman and praised him for
his murderous deed. After all,
what can one say, or thudc, about a
man who <ugns away Urge portions
of land to his and his people's
enemy?
Certainly no American president
couW get away with such traitorous
ads.
But it may well be that very
tact which was overlooked. What
conWctioas if must have taken lo
endeavor upon such a task, know-
ing how unpopular it would be.
For years Rabin fought
agaiast the Palestinians with one
mtcntion - keep them out of Israel.
Now in his later years, and as
Israel's Prime Minister, his desire
for peace outweighed anything else.
He mellowed.
Suddenly, land became incon-
sequential. Why? Perhaps it was
the many suicide bombings, duvals
to kill and rekindle war, and the
many casualties that he must have
seen on television and in the news-
papers on a regular basis.
This infectious and continues
disease that plagued his mind daily
and nightly, causing him many
sleepless nights One, of course,
may only surmise diese scattered
details But how far from truth are
they?
The alacrity in his manner to
fwgotiate land for peace, under-
standing speed's necessity, and his
humble nature, (though not neces-
sarily eager one), that allowed him
to shake the hand of former enemy
Yasser Arrafat, for whom he once
haibored full animosity for, and
which later won them both a Nobel
Peace Prize, marked Rabin with
intrepidity on one side, wfiile one
the other caused much paroxysm
and discontent among many of his
own people. Some may go so far as
to refer to his conducts as aberrant.
Was it?
War can sometimes be a
headache, and if it persists long
etKiugh may develop into a
migraiiw.
And while divvying up lands
to compensate for peace might not
have been the best of plans, (for it is
opinionated now and forever), it
was his vision of a peace accord
between Israel and the middle east
and the rest of the world that drove
him to do it.
He knew full well the bitter
resentment and the hostility that
bore down on him each and every
day he lived; probably knew he was
putting his own life in jeopardy.
Yet he retiuined constant in
his efforts to promote peace; never
backed down, for what other alter-
native could there be than war.
And how many more decades or
even centuries would it take; how
may lives would be called to die for
this cause known as rightful owner-
ship that dates back ttvyusands of
years; too long even to put an accu-
rate date on.
Now he's dead. No longer
can he personally be an inspiration,
a catalyst for peace. His dream will
(Of should) survive for others to
embrace. But there will be a price
Rabin was Rabin. There can
be no replacement for the real man.
He had his own agenda, oth-
ers will surely have theirs, and they
may not comcide with his.
At what price will his succes-
sor(s) put peace?
Will they execute prudeiKe;
remain on the same course as
Rabin?
How will these decisions
affect the middle east (peace talks)
and the rest of the world?
How long must it take for all
the answers to be given?

Congress threw overpriced hammer in the works again
Paul Flodcn • Down the river
As of this writing, the
government shutdown
has iu.4t been lifted,
and 'unnecessary " govern-
ment workers hjve returned
to work
Whew' That was ckiae.
II was bad enough I had to
caiKel my Grand Canyon don-
key ride lo the bottom camp
sites (Bobby?! Cindy?!)
lust imagine if it had to
drag out any longer,
what with all that vaca-
tion ■ I mean - back pay
to ftovfrnment work-
ers, and. tor thf first
time in history, the Post
tUhce provingmore
efficient then the rov-
emment, any pn>
kmged shut down could bf
catastrophic
Consider what would bv
emit Tlie IRS? The DEA' The
armed fonres? Maybe even so
far as the NEA' Or, no - perish
the thought - the dolts who
"... No matter how
Newtered Congress is in
their thinking, they
should m no way be held
accountable for their own
delinquency."
tdased II in the first place!
After all, no matter how
Ntii'ti-rid Congress is in their
thinking, they should m no
awy be held accountable for
their own delinquency. They
can't very likely send tliem-
selves home without pay, now
can they?
And diey can't just
send themselves home
with .. . um . . oh ya . .
back pay, lest they have
insufficient funds for
their bar tabs and their
daughters' Corvette
payments
However, working
without pay is an
ophon, but It would set a
precedent of — dare 1 say —
responsibility of which the
likes this land has never seen,
causing all the restaurants on
Capital Hill to slowly fold,
causing hunger amongst the
Congress making them irrita-
ble enough to back the EECX
in forcing Hooters Restaurants
nationwide to hire nule staff
members just to spite the "lit-
tle people " who voted them
into an office where they get
paid for voting their own rais-
es, but would now have to go
out of their way to a nearby
town for their after-session
milk and cookies.
Yep, we're sure lucky
we've got Congress on our
side. And hopefully in seven
years, we'll have a balanced
budget to deal with the rising
cost of hypocrisy.

line, the Hawlu. manhed up the field
to the Iowa 48 yard line before fum-
bling the ball.
The Harper defense held the line
and forced Iowa to punt. With the
ball on his own It, yard line, Church
thww his second interception of the
game on first down.
A personal foul was called against
Harper, giving the taken the ball on
the Hawks' 13 yard line with seven
nunutes remaining m the game.
It was the fourth personal foul call
on Harper. An earlier call in the quar-
«er resulted in the election oi defen-
sive lineman Larry Neely
"The referee thought that I slugged
an Iowa guy in the groin, so he threw
me out," Neely said
Iowa scored with 4.36 left in the
game to make it a 27-14 game.
However, they failed the extra point
attempt
With 1.05 lemaiiiing in the game,
Church was sacked on a second
down play that would have been a
serious blow to the Hawk offense
However, Iowa was hit with two
separate flags on the
play.Unsportsmart-Iike conduct and a
personal foul were caUed against the
Lakers.
After the ball was moved half of
the distance to the goal. Harper had
the ball first- and- ten at the Iowa \5
yard line
FoUowing an incomplete pHS Ht
Martm, Church connected in tht' end
zone with l.jwlor to pull Harper
within si.\ points With 47 seconds left
in the game, DeVito put one through
the uprights to put the score at 27-21.
Harper failed to recover the onside
kick, and Iowa altowed the clock to
run out.
"It was a real expenence to be in
the UNI dome, but 1 really wish that
we had won," defisisive back Haroun
Muhammad stated.
There were se\ eral occasions in Hhe
season when Harper appeared on
verge of kjsing. But the Hawks never
gave up.
It was the same at the Cola Bowl.
Each member of the team played the
last down of the game as hard as the
first down.
Eliasik has a picture on tile wall of
his office that says, "Don't ever give
up.-
The team didn't give up in
September when Nawarcaj was
injured.
They didn't give up following a 31-
0 beatmg by the College of DuPage.
The Hawks didn't give up when
they were down two touchdowns in
an unfriendly stadium with very few
supporters.
The Hawks football team will cel-
ebrate the end of the season with a
team banquet Wednesday, Nov 2<>
Team awards as well as NJCAA
awards will be given to sUnd outs at
the event.

Safety for the Harper
Communitv is a priority! The
Environmental Health and Safety
Conunittee, alcmg with Public Safety
reminds and encourages you to

pus id sparsely populated, or if you
are having problems with your car
If It is late and you are alone,
contact Public Siifety at extension
6330. Emergency calls should go to
extension 6211 (<>25-(>2U cellular
phone. 3^-8551 TDD) and let them
know you are on campus When

We entourage you to use the
buddy system at all times and not to
stay when the campus is declared
closed due to inclement weather or
other emergency conditions.
Should you have car problems,
we strongly encourage vou to come
to Public Safety, Building B. Room
101, to telephone for assistance, etc.
This prevents being alone in an isolat-
ed parking lot and allows you to
remain warm and safe until help
arnves Public Safety Office is open

Because of insurance and liabil-
ity issues. Public Safety personnel
miiv not "lump start" yehicles, pr^v
vide mechanical repairs, push vefu-
des from snow /ice, etc. They will
however provide a telephone to use
and a warm, safe place to wait for
help.
The following are suggestions from the Chicago Motor
Club for vehicle operation in the winter:
• Always keep the vehicle gas tank more than half full.
• Keep an emergency road kit in the trunk, which should
include jumper cables, flares, blanket and some non-per-
ishable food, such as cookies, crackers, etc.
• Keep your vehicle well tuned and winterized, which
includes an adequate level of antifreeze to protect the
vehicle to -40' F.
• Always lower your speed to compensate for winter dri-
ving conditions.
• A cellular telephone in your vehicle is useful to summon
assistance.

EducgitiGa
lias Its
University of Michigan stu-
dent took a crucial step
toward gaming back custody
of her 4-year-old daughter.
The Michigan Court of
Appeals decided to reverse
(udge Raymond Cashen's
1994 decision to award cus-
tody of Maranda Ireland-
Smi^ to her father, Steven
Smith. Cashen said the child
would be better off with
Smith because his mother-not
a daycare employee-would
look after her during the day
while he attended classes at a
local i.ommumt\: college.
lenniier Ireland, who
had custiKlv ot M.irjnda dur-
ing the appeals process,
brought her daughter to a
daycare facility on the UM
campus while she attended
class. The Court of Appeals
decided that Maranda had
"thrived" in the care prov id-
ed by staff members at the
campus facilitv
.After the divisum v%as
announced, Ireland held a
press conference v^ith lulie
Field, her attorney, to express
her happiness with the deci-
sion "I feel like it is a huge
burden that has been lifted
off of my shoulders' " said
Ireland, who is finishing the
first semester of her juiiior
year. "There's a lot of hope
and a lot of joy and a lot of
love that I feel right now."
Although Maranda will
continue to stay with Ireland,
the court ordered a new trial
to decidtxl whether Ireland or
Smith offers the most perma-
nent family unit.
Maranda was bom in
1991 while Ireland and Smith
were students at Mt.

Ul Student Faces Charges
After Aiding Roommate
IOWA CITY. lowa-A
University of !owa junior
who helped cover tor his
rcKimmate during a faked sui-
cide attempt has been
charged with making false
reports to a law enforcement
agency
It all started when
Robert Kcwtma, 2 1. reported
to police Oct 2(1 that his
roommate, Kevin Michael
Joyce, Jr. was missing.
Later that day. Kooima
gave police a sujdde iu)te,
which indicated Joyce had
jumped into the iwarby Iowa
River, said Capl. Pepke of Ul
Public Safety. Joyce's wallet
and bag had been found
along the river's banks.
Two days later, Joyce
telephoned Iiis parents that
he was alive. The phone call
ended a search of the river for
Joyce's body, but launched
problems for Kooima.
Joyce, who faces no
criminal charges, told police
about his phony suicide
scheme and that Kooima
played a part in it.
Police said that Kooima
admitted that he knew all
along that Joyce was alive.
Kooima said that although
Joyce had told him about the
plan for the faked suicide the
morning of his disappear-
ance, he did not believe he
would actually go thmugh
with it
The two have not spo-
ken since the incident
"We were best friends,"
Kooima said
Kooima faces trial on
Ian 19., 19%.

Wheieas last year, 16,W0 Amenciivs

iniuivd in impaired dnving crashes 7>>at's
one death about every 30 minutes. Many ivetc
innocent victims, not the impciivd driveis
themselves.
Whereas in rei-wit years. «Kiety has
experienced a dramatic shift in altirude
regarding? impaired driving, thanks to the
combir»!d eWorts irf law enforcement and
community groups. Society no lonjjer toler-
ates thone who can choose to dnnk and drive.
Whereas Amencaas will not tolerate the
senseless death aiKl injury on our nation's
roadways. Drivers arrested for dnving under
the influence can expect no sympathy from
the police, employers or neighbofs. Driving
under the influence is unacceptable
Whereas during the holidays. Harper
College shidents and employees can take a
stand against impaired drivers by joining taw
enforcement, businesses, government agen-
cies and private citizens in keeping their vehi-
cle headlights on an they drive during the day

The Harbinger
President Thompson, where do we rate?
The following is a reprint from the November
30th Schaumburg Review:
I would like to respond to and expand
upon an editohai printed in the William
Rainey Haipcr Cotkge atudcnt newspaper,
Vu llrnHmm, which was icptinied in the
nammi Rmm on Thimday, Nov. 16.
the HaiMnger writer oommunicaMl
that a better uae of the prapoMd Building W
at Harper would be lo house noie naih
and idence daiM* laiher than performing
arts and confcrencet fadlitiei. While admin-
istralora from both the lilt Sdtncts and
Human Servi<:c» Division and the
Technology, Mathematics and Physical
Sdcnoe DMaion wish that all needs of aU
students could be met at aD times, the ical
world ptcdudes the aocooi^UiffleMs al
this goal.
Both divisions have the reputation of
providing excellent education thrcni^ the
math and idcnce courses they offer. The
departments schedule, class offerings to
maximize the opportunity for the pmtiM
number of sitidents to be able to ri'gistlt
and take advantage of the course oUttklg^.
The schedule is arranged to maximixe
the fullness of the classes, and times and
wibers of sections and scats aic adjusted
on a semaMm bisas to mintmixe the number
of open scats indaasesat the end of legis-
traUon. Titia method of departmental man-
igsinrnt inn— ata adocalienal opportunity,
exceiknee and financial leaponsihiiity.
The coUegt? applied to the sate of
nhnois through the dlinais Oxiununity
College Board for $6.5 miUiun in funding
for a new multipurpose buikhng. The pro-
posed facility wjH cncoapaaa basacaHy two
hinctiorw A pet iottpiiig Mti fadlUtf and an
instructional conferefwe center. The S6.5
million would be funded from sate funds
based upon credit that was owed to Harper
from previously locally funded prpiects.
The original request for this funding
was made to the Illinois Community
College Board in 199], That request was
baaed on the master plan of the college and
included a performing arts/ teaching facility
and an art gallery
After considefing the aiiMiunt of cred-
it owed to Harper by the slate, we were
encouraged by the Ulinois Community
College Board to revise our proposal. The
cuneni 48,18fr4quaie-foot Building W pro-
posal was approved by ICCB in 1993 and
the art gaUery was refdaced by an instruc-
tional confeiciKe center.
This change responded to the success
of the corporate services division, whose
billings have doubled each year since it was
formed. Funds from corporate services aie
RinveMed in the college in order to expand
the oficrings and capabilities of that divi-
The ICCB-approved ptoiect proposal
resulted in the release of S3SO,000 in plan-
ning money to the college. The Capital
Development Board directed the college to
begin the architect-selection process, which
was completed at the August 1995 special
Board of Trustees OMieting.
The funding request is now in the
hands of state Le^slature. It is our hope that
funds will be made available for capital pro-
iects this spring so that we can continue to
plan for the educational needs of this com-
numity.
The registrabon staff continues to try
creative and effective procedures to mini-
mize registration lines.
Other than making sure students in
line are physically comfortable (by allowing
access to the buildings and providing secu-
rity), the first-come, first-served policy of
picking up registration cards continues to
be pevoeived as the fairest method, accord-
ing to a recent survey of current students.
The William Rainey Harper College
Board of Trustees, with ongoing input frcnn
the faculty and staff of the college, is com-
mitted to carrying out the mission of the
ooUege — to provide excellent education at a
reasonable cost, promoting personal
growth, enriching the community and
meeting Ae needs of a changing world —
while maintaiiung excellence and fiscal
responsibility.
Dave Pump / Julie Thompson
Managing Editor / News Editor
When the president of a school disagrees with points
made in their institution's student publication, why would
that president bring his side of the story to an outside source
first?
In recent weeks, there have been conflicting viewpoints
between the Harbinger and Harper College President Paul N
Thompson, alonj; with the parties involved in the construc-
tion of Buildmg W, concerning ways in which Harper College
should spend funds for campus expansion. The battle ol
words, in part, has been made public in local issues of The
Pioneer Press.
The Harbinger editorial staff wrote an "Our View" con-
demiung the registration process and the practicality of
Building W in the Nov. 27 issue. The main points touched on
in the article were the need for math and science space on
campus
Thompson responded to the editorial, not to The
HarbingcT directly, but to Pioneer Press in the form of an essay
(see related story below).
Patty Roberts, Community Relations Manager to the
president, said, "We used The Harbinger editohai to send a
message to the community about Building W and registration.
It was a good opportunity to set the record straight."
Roberts acknowledged that a response should have
been sent to The Harbinger ; however, she said, it was her over-
sight that The Harbinger was never contacted.
"It's all my fault," Roberts said, " He (Thompson)
planned to respond to The Harbinger, but due to the Pioneer
Press deadline I sCTit his response to them first."
Even the Managing Editor of Pioneer Press's
Schaumburg Review Robert Loerzel said "We were curious a.s
to why Thompson would want to publish a response to a
Harbinger editorial in our paper, rather than in his own col-
leges publicahon ■■
Thomps«>n tailed to respond to requests by Harbinger
representatives for an mterview. Therefore, his responses to
the Oct. 27 editorial are being reprinted with permission from
the Thursday, November 30th Pioneer Press.
In Thompson's response, he quoted the results of an
appointment card distribution survey given by the Registrar's
Office He insisted the survey results showed the current
method of registration increases the educational opportunity,
excellence and finaiKial responsibility for Harper's students.
However, it appears Thomfjson quoted a biased survey.
The survey was only given to 300 out of Harper's 17,000 stu-
dents. Also, the survey forms were handed out at 7 a.m.,
which doesn't take into account those who can't get to school
that early.
Apart from the debate about registration and the justifi-
cation of building W, the question retnains the same. Hey,
President Thompson, where does The Harbinger rate?
Attention all shoppers: Which mall is the best of all?
Dawt Pump / Julie Thompson
_M*?'*1'I'9 Editor / News Editor
With the hohday season upon
us. It's tune to thmk about getting
our Christinas shoppmg done oir^
this year Actu>g as guinea pigs, die
Harbinger staff braved the crowds at
local malls to rate each one on shop-
pmg convetuences.
Some of the important factors
we look into account were
Can you find a place to pjrk'
WMl if your at Woodfield, probably
not. Can you find your car after a
shoppmg marathon? Definitely not!
On the other hand, parkir\g at
Stratford Square and Spring Hill was
a littk- more accessible Randhunit
has a fairly small parking lot that fills
up quKkly . so get there early Spring
Hill Mall had adequate parking.
allowing for easy access without a
long walk.
Shoppmg and eatmg go hand in
hand. So which mall has the best
eats? Wocxifield was the undisputed
winner, ranging from sit-down dining
to fast food Stratford's. Randhurst
and Spnng Hill all have food courts
that place ab<wt half a dozen mini-
restaurants in one place Stratford's
selection of food wa.sn't |udged the
best but it had ample seahng that bet-
ter than Randhurst and Spring Hill
Which mall is the K-st it you
havf children? Those of us on staff
with children thought Stratford was
the best It has some of the same
stores as Woodfield without all the
hassles. Spring Hill is nice because,
with the exception of the anchor
stores, it's all on one level, not two or
three like most malts.
Stratford is also much smaller
than Wcxxj field making it easier to
maneuver a stroller Besides, for the
holidays the mall is ofienng $1.00
ChooChoo rides for the kids
The bottom line is, Woodfield
seemed to come out on top over all.
Even though parking isn't the great-
est (unless you spring for the valet)
atvi people are everywhere you turn,
Woodfield had the biggest diversity
of stores making it easy to do all your
shoppmg at the same place Just be
sure to go during the week because
busses from other states ship shop-
pers in on weekends.
While your at Woodfield shop-
ping don't forget to check out the new
addition, featuring Noidstrom and a
redesigned Lord & Taylor, and die
recently -opened Rain Forest Cafe.

When does weekend drinking become a problem?
I Almost half the
college students in
the United States
are binge drinkers,
according to a
1995 Harvard
School of Public
Health survey of
17,592 college stu-
dents from 140
colleges nation-
wide. Here is the
story of one week-
end binger. Her
name is Katie.
By Jennifer Smith
College Press Service
LEXINGTON, Ky.-
Huddled in tfie comer of a
small apartment, oblivious to
the chaos around her is
"Katie," a University of
Kentucky nursing student.
Psychedelic lights surround
her, adding a tripping effect
to the room. Gyrating bodies
crash agaiiwt each other
seemingly al lightiung speed.
The smell of beer and sweat
intertwine with cigarette
smoke and fog from a huffing
smoke machine in the back of
the room.
Every once in a while,
people come over to "Katie's
Corner" to make sure the
petile brunette is breathing.
She has already had eight
beers. A friend offers Katie
another swig of his mixed
drink— called a suicide.
Katie is not alone.
Almost half of the col-
lege students in the United
States are binge drinkers,
according to a 1995 Harvard
School of Public Health sur-
vey of 17,542 college students
from 140 colleges nationwide
After 20 minutes in the
comer, Katie opens her eyes
and wonders how she can get
more alcohol. Grinning slow-
ly, she goes to greet the guy
she thinks brought her to the
party. A few stumbles later,
Katie bumps into an old
friend from high school who
she hasn't seen in two years.
He asks f>er to dance,
and they stroll silently
toward the gyrating masses.
After a few twists and turns,
Katie, who will turn 21 next
year, manages to maneuver a
plastic cup of Killian's Red
from his hands and into her
mouth.
A few more swallows,
and her dancing becomes less
rigid. The girl who origiruiUy
sat in the comer because she
doesn't dance very well
becomes the grunge music
ballerina. As the beat
changes, her partner's body
moves closer to Katie's. His
hands slide from her waist to
her butt. He tightly presses
f>er body to his. She doesn't
seem to mind. After the song
ends, their danang doesn't.
Their dancing turns to kiss-
mg-slowly at first and gradu-
ally more intense.
At her request, he gets
her another beer In the
amount of time he's gone, she
finds another "old fru-nd '
Like an instant replay, the
scene happens again with the
next guy Except, when the
song ends, they leave the
party together.
Battle Of The Binge
Katie said she is far
from the average alcoholic.
She has a 3.78 grade-point
average, a boyfriend and a
stable family liife.
But Katie is a binge
drinker. She can even recite
the definition of her affliction.
"The consumption of
five or more drinks in a row
on at least one or more occa-
sions," she reads from one of
her health textbooks. "That's
pretty accurate. Five [drinks]
get me a good buzz going. 1
can relax then."
According to the
nahonwide Core Alcohol and
Drug survey of 56,000 college
students, binge drinking con-
tributes to a broad range of
problems tor college students
including memor)' loss, trau-
ma, date rape, vandalism and
suicide.
The study says drink-
ing is the No. I health concern
on college campuses.
Dr Tim Nolan, director
of student mental health for
the University Health
Service, said student drink-
ing is a complicated issue.
"\'es, one person may
experiment with alcohol-and
this is perfectly natural in a
college environment-but this
experimentation often can
lead that person into negative
thii%s like hurting them-
selves and others or having
unprotected sex."
Alcohol also has been
associated with missed class-
es and poor performaiKe rat-
ings on tests and projects. In
the Core group's survey, col-
lege students who reported
the lowest grade-point aver-
ages consumed an average of
I 1 alcoholic beverages a
week, while those who
reported mostly Ns had less
than three drinks per week.
Nolan said most sur-
veys he has read on binge
drinking show that bingers
are not just hurting them-
selves.
"They show very dear-
ly that non-bingers are affect-
ed-they are harassed, abused
to some extent," he said.

Vinny & 007 big winners
Susan Rademacher • Oin and a movie with Suz
Vinny 's and
"Goldeneye" each
get two thumbs up
from our Harbinger
staffers!
Wooiifield Mall needed a iresh
new Italian restaurant — Vinnys
Family Style Italian Resaurant
is just that. The portions are large enough
to nuke any Italian grandmother proud
Fresh is the word at Virmy's For all of
you garlic lovers, Viiin\ \ uses the real
thing. Powden>d garlu: is nowhere to be
found. Vinny's al.s<.> Lx-lieves that )OU
can't put enough cheese in a dish
Our meal began with a basket of
Vinny's freshly baked
bi«ad. the basket was
overflowing with three
different types of bread.
It c<xisisted of Italian
sourdough, Focaccia, and
garlic bread.
The bread was fol-
lowed by Vinny's dinner
salad with Virmy's house
dressing. The salad was
brimming with red
onions, tomatoes, and
olives.
At ttlis point, we
were completely stuffed, and we hadn't
even gotten to the main course. The
main course was well worth the wait. My
Managing Editor and I had ordered from
the lunch menu, and specified t}\e regular
size entrees. Vinny's also has a humon-
gous siie From what I've seen of the reg-
ular lunch size, the humongous dinner
size must be enough to feed a ftxvtbaU
team! Just to give you an indication of the
size diffeterues, the spaghetti and meat-
balls is $7.75 for the regular portion on
the luiKh menu ($8.95 for the dinner
menu) and humongous is $15.95 for
lunch (same for dinner).
We sampled the spaghetti and
meatballs along with the baked ziti and
sausage. Both meals were outstanding.
[X>ggie bags are the norm at Vinny's,
where the service is friendly and prompt.
The atmosphere consists of the traditional
red and white checkered table cloths, and
the feeling of a sidewalk cafe in a small
Italian village. In the background there's
the music of Tony Bennett, Frank Sinatra,
and other easy listening favorites.
This week's movie selection is none
other than Bond, James Bond.
"Goldeneye" is definitely a Bond movie
for the 90's. Pierce Brosnan is as close as
you can get to Sean Connery
as the martini drinking
British secret agent.
Brosnan's 007 energizes ttie
Ian Fleming hero following
Tunothy Dalton's lackluster
portrayal of the man who is
licensed to kill.
"Goldeneye" has all of the
trademarks of a Bond
movie. It has Bond girls,
gadgets, and bad guys who
want to rule the world. The
Russian computer analyst
who helps Bond is a typical
Bond babe with or>e exception. This Bond
babe is allowed to show off her brain as
well as her body.
The chick to look out for is the for-
mer Russian Army pilot. This gal is every
man's nightmare— she crushes men with
her thighs. There's a scene where she
shoots up a room full of people. She
appeared to be having a sexual experi-

The Harbinger
Our View
'Tis the season to
be fortunate
As the semester draws to a close,
there's a certain feeling in the air around
campus. Festivities to celebrate the holi-
day season are ail around. The brisk
north wind has replaced shorts and
shirts with overcoats and boots. And
students everywhere are gearing up for
the mother of all tests, the final exam.
As you breathe that sigh of relief
after walking out of your last final,
think about what you've accomplished
this year. Did you do everything you've
set out to take care of? Hd\ e vou set
goals for 19%? Take some time to give
thanks for your good fortime. Things
that we take for granted, such as as the
right to vote or sleeping in a warm bed
are little more than dreams for far too
many people around the world.
19% brings several events to UK)k
forward to: the Summer Olympics in
Atlanta, February 29th, presidential
elections, and much more. Some of us,
including Harper, even get a new tele-
phone area code.
Take care. Harper. From everyone
at the Harbinger, have a festive holiday
season and a prosperous new year. We
look forward to seeing you in 1996!

Holiday shopping nightmares
Jon O'Brien • The Ed's View
It's that time of year that
power-shoppers love and
[ dread — holiday shop-
ping. Ever>-where you go,
hoards of people buy up
everything in sight. Yet lurk-
ing in the shadows, a shifty
lowlife kx>ks to lighten some-
one's load arid lower their
spirits. A few simple direc-
tions can make the difference
between a memorable hiili-
day st'ason and a montfi of
frayed nerves, overdrawn
bai\k accounts and police
reports
Protect yourself from
theft Hide valuables, such as
purses, cellular phones, radar
detectors, and radio face
plates IXin't leave presents
wht"iv shiftv eyes can see
them Be sure to arm your
car s alarm svitem if vou
have iinr And for (.<«J sakes,
lixk vtiur car whrn vou leave
it' Keep your purs<- or wallet
concealed from pick poikets
Don't carry any mon? cash
than vou have to
A v(UK k note tor thosi'
of you who have a keyless
entry feature on your auto-
mobiles tf\ieves ha\i' devices
that can mtercept your kev
fob's signal when you use it.
It might be a good idea to
lock and unlock your car
doors with a key whenever
you so to a crowded store or
mall
Be prepared to show
identification for credit pur-
chases. I wasn't in Sears for
two minutes on November
24th t>efore I found someone
attempting credit fraud
Credit authorization centers
are keeping a tighter grip
than ever on fraud. Be ready
to show a driver's license or
state identification card if
requested Using somebody
else's card is a reallv bad idea
at this time of year as stores
tend to tackle/handcuff/
arrest first, ask questions
later
Don't f>e so hard on
sales clerks. No matter how
much holiday shopping you
do, solespeople are going
through mon> Just like you
and me, these pisiple can
only take so many rude and
grouchy customers before
going postal.

When at ht)me, do not
keep gifts in areas that are
visible from the outside.
They inay look pretty sitting
under tfie tree but you don't
want Public Enemy Number
One, standing outside your
living room window, to think
the same. Lights are visible
through curtains. Report
suspicious activity in your
neighborhixxi.
Make a list of svhat you
need to accomplish. A little
planning goes a long way.
Have an idea who you want
to buy for and what they
would like I personally feel
that shopping is one of the
world's biggest wastes of
time. A well-written list
allowed me to survive shop-
ping at the Mall of America
in Minneapolis, Miimesota.
the day after TfiaiOssgiving
last year It also lets you track
what you've purchased and
avoid overpurchasing.
Watch your spending
carefully While a S3000 limit
MasterCard may sound nice
on December i'^rd, as you do
your last minute shopping.
It's not going to seem like a
giHid idea in January when
all of your bills arrive. Be
sure to check your bills tor
any questionable activ ity
Keep your receipts in case of
a dispute
A little patience and
common sen.se will go a long
way in the malls. Gixxj luck!

DRINKING: Knowing when to say when
continued from page 7
studies reflect campus
behaviors.
"We've carefully
iwirwed studies from big
Khools, aiKi we have copies
of them," UK Dean of
Shidents David Stockham
said. "We use them as our
sources of information. We
believe the pattern lassodal-
ed with drinkmg) are simi-
lar"
UK has made ^teveral
attempts to address these
concerns.
In 1988, the UK nrviacd
portions of its Alcohol Policy.
The policies became
more speciin as to where and
when drinking on campus ts
appropnale Alcoholic bev-
erages are not permitted in
dawfooins, laboratories.
offices, resideiKe halls, athlet-
ics events and all outdoor
areas on campus
Also, the policy sjys
housing corporations that
supervise on-campus greek
chapter houses are supposed
to establish rules that are con-
sistent with local laws and
icgulations. Those house cor-
porations also are respoiMiM*
for ensuring compiiance by
nnidents
In confunction with the
policy's opening statements
to "promote akohd educa-
tion and counseling pro-
grams," Stockham said the
university has encouraged
student groups to create
forums cm related issues
Also, the university
offers a new short course
with workshops and sp«.idl
speakers describing jlcohol
and its consequences The
program is called On-
Campus Talk About Alcohol
(OCTAA).
For students who
believe they may have a
drinking problem, Nolan
suggested several options for
seeking help on cjmpus He
said students may gc u> the
University Health Vrvices m
either the student mental
health wing or m the primary
care facilitv L K s
Counselmg and Testing
Center also can help Nolan
added that the community
has several sources, including
help groups such as
Alcoholics Anonymous, Ala-
noo and Ala-teen.
The Morning After
Katie wakes up in a fi>r-
eign bed m a dark room. The
only sign of morning she can
discern is the blmking red
9-.4S on the alarm clock next
to her. Katie's head pounds,
her mouth feels dry. She
leaves the steeping man next
to her with as mudh silence as
she can muster in her present
state.
"I know I didn't have
sex with him," Katie says a
few hours later. "I shll had
all of mv clothes on when I
woke up and he did, too We
must have |ust passed out
together "
Katie still dix-s not
know who the man she woke
up with is or what happened
between them.
After someone
descnbes her state the night
befori" lo Katie, she says this
is not the first time She even
admits that it ^'rob.ibly is a
problem," but it will "proba-
bly happen .igain
Two weeks later. Katie
is seeking help at j regional
rehabilitation center follow-
ing an overdose of sleeping
pills and muscle relaxants.
She acknowledges that
the drugs were definitely a
problem.
But she still doesn't
think that drinking on the
weekend is "that big of a
problem" for her
"Drinking is just an
easy way to forget all of tfie
stuff that has happei^ in ttie
course of the week-you know,
grades and classes and family
and stuff," she said. "It's rK>t
like I drink all of the tinie. I
do it on tf>e weeketwls only."

Flu bug continues to spread
By Liza Roclw
COLLEGE PRESS SERVICE
Forget the socks and the under-
wear This holiday season's number
one must unwanted gift is one that
kot'ps en giving — influenza.
The C fntors h*r Ui-rfMst- Control in
Atlanta said that b\ mid-Dt»CpmK"r
Influenza type A virus -more com-
monly known as "the Ifu'-has
reached epidemic proportions in the
nation. Twent\-nme stales n-ported
regional or widespread influenza-like
illness (ILI) in mid-December and the
virus' strength remained constant as
of the first week in January.
Nancy Arden. the CDC's chief of
innuen/aepidemmlogy. said states in
all areas of the nation have been hit
hard by the flu and there is no way to
tell when Americans will see relief
from the virus, which is characterized
by fever headache, body aches and
throat soreness
Dr. Marv Gardner of the student
health center at Northwestern
Universit\- said students came pour-
ing into the office as soon as they
came back from break on )an. 3.
Gardner said he noticed a consid-
erable rise m flu cases ever since stu-
dents returned back to the university
from Thanksgivmg break.
But things could be worse, said
Gardner, who added that the flu epi-
demic has not yet led to "standing
room only" in the waiting room.
"When it kxiks like a rock concert
in here, you know you have a prob-
lem," he said.
Doctors say that the flu soastm
seems to have had an early peak this
year, starting sometime in mid
December, rather than the later part
of lanuary But, they caution, two
more straircs of influenza will most
likely .show up before the flu season
ends in Apnl.
College campuses are breeding
grounds for many illnesses because of
the close quarters associated with a>l-
lege life. Plus, said Gardner, college
students tend to travel fwavily during
the holiday seas<;)n and bring back ill-
nesses to the campus from all over the
nation.
While the CDC recommends that
people get an influenza vaccination
each October or November, Gardner
said that it's not too late to get a flu
shot and spare yourself from the
remaining strains of the virus. The
shot takes a lew weeks to become
active in the body, but Arden said the
vacnne has been shown to prevent
illness in about 70-90 percent of
healthy adults younger than 65 years
of age.
Without the shot, the only way to
avoid catching the flu is to stay away
from everyone, Gardner said. Also,
the immune system oju-rates better if

Look beyond New
Year's resolutions
for success
Making New Year's resolu-
tion's year after year seem to get
old extremely quick. Most peo-
ple use these to try to make him-
self/herself a better person, by
trying to lose weight, do away
with drinking, trying to quit
smoking or to do more in less
time?
Being a student, don't get all
caught up in these resolutions, by
making one to do better in school
this semester. The average per-
son holds to their resolution for
about three weeks That would
be hmm.. about the hme of the
first quiz or test.
Not passing a test or quiz
could get you caught right back
into that rut. LcK>king in the mir-
ror, seeing yourself going in that
downward spiral L'suallv lea\ -
ing you nvure frustrated than
evtT.
Pass or tail, that once set reso-
lufK>n will be forgotten through-
out the semester But don't for-
get about all of the great pro-
grams the sch<.K)l offers to help
vou succeed. Use them through-
out the M-mester. the\ will pro\f
to be more prcHiiicfiv e and reli-
ablf then a ri>Milution that was
shouted out after a couple o(
glasses of champagne.

L uick quiz; what's your
larea ccxle? Ameritech tvas
begn blowing its horn
Utely'3bi)ut the handful of area
codes that wv will be forced to
deal with in the coming months.
Those of you in the northwest
suburi>s, including dear ol'
Harper, will be in area code 847,
while anyone in DuPage county
wUl be in aim code tM starting
later this year
But wait. It gets better'
Chicagoans who aren't in the
downtown area will also be get-
ting a new code next year' And to
top It all tiff, anyone in Cook
County who is served by the
Roaeile switching station (parts of
Schaumburx, Elk Gro\ e, and oth-
ers) get a whole new telephone
number to deal with'
A more logical approach
would have been to switch all of
this equipment to its own cixle(s)
but noooDoo, that would make too
much serwe- We can thank the
many pager and cellular phone
service providers for lobbying for
this hodgepodge of numljers.
For some reason tlwy felt that
placing cell phones, pagers,
modems and fax machines in a
dedicated area code was discnm-
inahng against them, nevermind
that it's already done this way in
New Yt>rk Cit\
Or maybe converting to an 8-
digit number by tacking a zero
onto existing telephone numbers,
though this would be a hassle to
the phone company (parish the
thought)
Or how about Ameritech
working with the various sub-
urbs to lay down a ID-year plan
to accommodate for the need for
phone numbers' If Ameritech
had thought this whole thing out
correctly we would have known
alx)ut the impending contusion
years ago and would have had
more time to ad|ust lor it. !V1y
home phone number is changing
in a matter of davs and I didnt
know what it was until a couple
weeks ago — hardly enough time
to get the word out
I predict that by the year 2000
we'll go by lO^ligit phone num-
bers— automatically including
the area code will be a necessity
it anyone wants to get through.
What I really love is all of the
money, our money, being used
for the phone company to blow
off on pet projects like television
and radio commercials, and cable
television service. But where else
can we go to get telephone ser-
vice? If Ameritech makes a mis-
take, we suffer the con-sequences.
We aren't completely helpless,
though. The Citizen's Utility
Board, affectionately known as
C.U.B., has been fighting for the
rights of consumers for years
now.
Another inten-sting prospect
IS that AT&T is hying to get its
fcxit m the local phoiw .service
dixir. It's too early to say if this
will improve things but
Ameritech has been balkmg
about it from the start. Some
change would be better than
none.
Where's my phone book...

Gemini: Your sign is moving into vitgo, so me your (um signal. You will feel hot,

Cancer Today is a slow day. You will have nothing to do. tn fact, even your hotcscope

Our View
Who's going to be
paying for the
Bears to stay?
Governor Edgar, Mayor Daley and
Michael McCaskey, you are not getting
our vote or money for the proposed
.Chicago "McDome " Stadium
There is no logic behind raiiing
taxes for a spoiled rotten immature
brat like McCaskey, who or\ly wants to
make his wallet fatter, and raising
taxes in the suburbs to help Chicago
cope with the burden.
Mayor Daley, you need to look no
further for the money because it's
right under your nose— in your cor-
rupt school system. Who's this
month's superintendent?
Within the last five years the city of
Chicago has seen the rise of the "new "
Comiskey Park and the UnitiHi Center
and the fall of two of the most historic
buildings in sports: Comiskey Park
and the ChitJgu Stadium.
Yes. it did take the threat of moving
to hlorida to keep the White Sox, but
the home of the Bulls and Blackhawks
was built using sntart business tactics
and corporjtf 'iponMT-.hip from
United Airlmt-v
McCaskey, take your Bears to
Chicagoland, IN or to the merry land
L)i OZ. But don't come back crying to
m when you realize you're losing
money because you still c.int |u>tit\
raising our taxes.

kick in the lace, the administra-
tion's lack ot action to relieve the
lack of silence and math classes
T>ie\ s..rni to feel that a stnmger
tine arts program is more justified
financially than addmg classes
with a pr«>vi»n need.
How many companic>s aban-
don money -waving customers for
a non-evistent client base' Many
of these forgotten students will
simply go eisew here lor the need-
ed classes, taking their cash with
them.
I witness effective customer
service from a tax funded inshtu-
tion se\ eral limes a week. My
employer, the Schaumburg
Township District Library, prides
itM'lf on being a service-driven
organization It's not unusual for
us to hear atxiut out-of-distnct
pafnins who prefer to use our
facility over their local facility
because ot our lev el of si-rvice. We
stnmgiy believe that our attention
to customer sere ice was what
helped us win a lax referendum
for a new building in la.st
November's elections Do you
think Harper could rel\ on its
people skills in a similar situa-
tion'
As with any government-fund-
ed organization, and profitable
business tor that matter, this
schiH)l is a serv ice-driven cirgani-
/.ation It has to reali/e that it
needs us a lot more than we mvd
it and start to show it If our
beloved/behated college is to
compete in the future, as its lead-
ers keep talking about, it had bet-
ter learn some manners and fast

Ihe mens fiasketball team isn't the

have cheerleaders attend their games.
The vMiinen s baskettiall team plays
their home games as the lirsi hall of a

VNhen the cheerleaders bothered lo

would vinly chcvr at the mens game.
Our women athletes deserve |ust as

The womens basketball
team began the second halt of
their conterence schedule
with a bang as Ihev defeated
Triton K(l 70 Ian, 2S
The 1 ad\ Hawks have a
tough road ahead, as the\
prepare ti> pKn the College ol
Dul'age, loliel, Rock V'allev,
and Illinois Vallev
Sophomores Christj
Komnu'l and IX'nise Hengels
lead the Hawks in scoring
and rebounds. The sopho-
mores have been a-tea-d to as
twin players.
Rommel plavs the inside
shot while Hengels prefers to
play the outside. In their sec-
ond year together, Hengels
and Rommel feel comfortable
w ith each other on and off of
the court.
"We've has a great experi-'
ence here becausi- we've got-
ten attention from our coach.
It's really helped us a lot,"
said Rommel and Hengels
Both are still unsure about
where they will end up next
vear "It's hard to find a
school you like that has a
good womens team," said
Hengels.
Both ladies agree that they
have learned a lot at Harper
in and out of the classrcxnn
You can catch Hengels and
Rommel in Harper's tinal

The netxl for more sci-
ence space, fueled by his

negotiate plans for a
physical science center
that will also house a

In 1W2 Harper
I'resident Paul N
Thompson jj^reed to
Junate land on the north-

for the center if Sipiera
could i>btain the money
"All the rattles in the
world can't raisi- that
kind of money," Sipiera
said "so I decided to start
my own group, not only
for tfie planetarium, but
to raise public awareness
on how important sci-
ence is in our lives "
With his ideas in
mind, Sipiera founded
the Planetary Studies

studying the planets.

sponsor concert in Building A
soffwum
In commmioration with Black History
Month, the African Aim>ncan Students
Association (AASA) will be having a concert
on Tuesday. Feb 27 at 12pm in the Student
Lounge ot Buildin;; A AASA Presidi-nt
Bui)ker T. tones said that the concert will pro-
vide entertainment as well as being an eye
opener to all who don't know tho struRjifle
that the "black man" has beun throufib Mnit-
the t>egmning of time.
"This concert will help to shed lij^ht on all
who have contributed positively to the
African American culture but haw never
been recognized for ttwir contribution," he
•aid.
Tlw concert will address unification
between minorities, since the Latinos United
will be joining forces with the AASA to make
this concert a success. The concert will fiea-
ture various talents from both groups
Selections include songs, dances and poems
from the cultural aspect of African influeture
on blacks in today's sixriety.
When asked the aim and obfectivt- of the
AASA. Jones said that his teaching to the
group IS 'I can, 1 am." With this view he
believes that when one knows where he
comes from, and where* he is. it is inevitable
that he will know where he will lie
"We all need to be aware o( our history so
that we can get rid ot all the bitterness, that
embraces today's siKiety and this organiza-
tion for the African- American students helps
us to addn>ss this issue."

If you are a healthy woman over 35 who

thLs simple lite saving procedure now Since
one woman m nine develops breast cancer at

Screenmg mammt>graphy involves taking
two low-radidtion x-rays ot each bitvist These
images are then interpreted b> a trained radi-
ologist, and a report is sent to you It takes
ortly a few minutes, and can detect breast can-
cer as small as the period at the end ot this

Early detection (18 mtmths sooner than a
lump can be felt) not only permits treatment
before the prtiblem becomes .serious, but the
cure rate is 95 percent. Mammography can
not only S4\e your life, but help you avoid the
need for disfiguring surgery, too.

LSU athletes score a victory off field
BY COU.EGE PRESS SanVKX
BATON ROUGE-Female athletes have
won a victory at Louisiana State University,
although it's not cm the playing field.
US Distnct Court )udge Rebecca Doherty
ruled Jan 12 that LSU sexually discriminates
agamst its female athletes by not supporting
tntercoUegute teams such as women's soccer
and fast -pitch s<:)ftt>all
The school, found m liolation of Title IX of
the Education Amendments of 1972 that pn:>-
hibits sex discrimination at federally funded
institutes, was given 20 days to come up with
a plan tfut complies with the law.
University spokesman Jim Crain said the
athletic department is "working their butts
off" to come up with a plan to present to the
judge. The department has already hired a
Softball coach and plans to start a team in
1997.
The lawsuit was started by five female stu-
dents in 1994. Doherty did not order the
school to pay monetary damages to the stu-
dents betau.se the discrimination was negli-
gent, not intentional. In her decision, she
wrote that the violation resulted from a>nhi-
sicm about the law, "arrogant ignorance ... and
a remarkably outdated view of women and
athletes "
Doherty also wrote that the university
"remains unaware that females who partici-
pate in varsity sport are athletes who happen
to be female and not females who happen to
wish to be athletes."
Students go as cave men for a day
BY COLLEGE PPESSSCBVICE
CANTON, N.Y— In a
throwback to ancient times,
St. L.awrence University
anthitfpotogy students fash-
toned stone toots then carved
up a deer for a clasa feast.
Associate Prof lofui
Barthelme said the idea
behind his course
"Neanderthal; Fact, Fiction
and Fantasy" is to teach stu-
dents about the origins of
modem pec^le and clear up
"caveman" stereotypes.
"More and more wc know
now that [Neanderthals]
were very, very intelligent
and very human-Uke he said,
not stooped hairy men that
grabbed women by the hair
and pulled them into a cave."
Students learned the intri-
cacies of stone toolmaking,
then used their new tools to
dehide a deer and remove its
mafor joints. The deer had
been killed by poachers and
given to Barthelme, a sea-
soned toolmaker, by wildlife
officials.
But instead of cooking the
meat over an open hre, stu-
dents turned it over to the
school's food service.
"It was about 23 degrees
outside so we decided not to
do that," Barthelme said.
All but one student, a vege-
tarian who also did not take
part in the butchering,
enjoyed the venison meal.
Barthelme said other stu-
dents have carved goats, and
a professor he knows at
Indiaru University cut up an
elephant using homemade
stone tools.
UC delays Affirmative Action ban
BY COiEGE PRESS SERVICE
OAKLAND-Days after the University of
California's controversial decision to keep its
affirmative-action ban, school officials
anrumnced that the new admission guidelines
will not start until the 1998 school year.
The policy that prohibits the use of race
aitd geiMJer preferences in hiring and admis-
sions was to take effect in school year 1997.
But according to UC President Richard
Atkinson, that wasn't enough time to prepare
new admission guidelines on CaUfomia's
nine campuses.
"Given the length and phasing of the
jdmi.ssioas process, [the ban) will taJce effect
for students seeking admission to the fall 1998
entering class," Atkinson said in a Jan. 23 let-
ter to the nine UC chanceUors.
Students apply a year aivi a half before
starting classes, so students applying this
spring for the fall of 1997 will not be affected
by the ban, he said.
Atkinson's decision angered many UC
regents, who voted last July to drop affirma-
tive-action policies. Gov. Pete Wils<M\, who is
a regent by virtue of his office, accused the UC
administration of "dragging its feet" with its
latest decision
Regent Ward Connerly, who sponsored the
ban, told reporters he was "furious" and that
the delay was unacceptable.
But UC Spokesman Mike Lassiter said
Atkinson's decision "does not constitute a
change in policy." The ban will start Jan. 1,
1997, as planned, but by that time the admis-
sions proc^ess for the class of fall 1997 would
be over, he said.
The delay would not apply to graduate or
professional programs.

The Senate, which approved the
House version of the provision on
Jan. 26. rejected an amendment spon-
sored by Democrats to restore $3.1
billion in education spending to the
budget deal
David Merkowitz. director of pub-
lic affairs at the American Council of
Education, said politically, it's diffi-
cult to gauge whether the
Department of Education will be
funded at or above 1W5 levels.
"With the resistaiK-e on the level of
spending we don't know if that's
going to happen," he said
He said the lack of a budget agree-
ment has left financial aid offices at
universities around the nation up in
tfie air when it comes to developing
financial aid packages. Without an
approved budget, the Educahon
Department has been unable to deter-
mine funds tor Pell Grants and other
programs. such as College
WorkStudy. Perkins loans and
Supplemental Educational
Opportunity Grants.
That is having a serious impact on
student linancial aid, according to
Judith Harper, interim director of the
financial aid office at the Umversity
of Michigan- Ann Arbor
"It's sti hard to get-up-lo-the-
minute news out of Washington." she
said "The ctmtmumg budget resolu-

Schools tradihonally give students
a financial aid package by March.
"It's very important for students to
know what their financial award will
be so they can make a decision" on
whether they can afford to attend
school in the tall. Harper said. But
this year, the budget crisis is making
it difficult to estimate grant and loan
morues.
Some finaiKial aid officers might
still give out student aid packages in
March but will emphasize that the
final award depends on pending leg-
islation. Harper said.
Forty percent of Michigan's 36.000
students receive financial aid. With
the government shutdowns, some
students never received their Free
Application for Federal Student Aid.
Others have sent in the forms, but
processing has been delayed for sev-
eral weeks.
Sid HoUoway, associate director of
the financial aid office at North
Carolina State University, said his
office has had "some trepidation" in
plannmg financial aid packages. Like
Michigan, about 40 percent of the
school's 30,000 students receive finan-
cial aid.
He hopes the budget crisis will be
resolved enough so that the
Education Department will at least be
able to operate at its 1995 budget.
The uncertainty of what's happen-
ing next m this "topsy-turvy" year
frustrates him. "It's the craziest thing
I've ever seen," he said.
"It's all a lot moK tenuous this
year' " Harper agrees. "We need to
let the Congress know that its
extremely important to have the bud-
get settled for the sake of the students
of this country."
Many students and families are
unaware of the impact the budget
impasse is fiaving on financial aid
offices, she added.

CHAPMAN: a generous woman
continued from page 1
Her main goal was to protect
women and children.
Chapman shared her
intelligence as a certified edu-
cator as she served seven
years as an elementary school
teacher. Most importantly to
us, she sponsored and enact-
ed the bill that started com-
munity colleges in this state.
These are only a few of her
dozens of acccomplishments.
Chapman died last
September, but her life will be
far from forgotten. She has
helped to change tf>e lives of
many people. She managed
to leave an impression on
everyone she met. Chapman
will always be remembered
as a kind and generous
woman who would reach out
her hand to anyone in need.
"Nice guys finish last," is
an imparative cliche, because
It usually is the person with
the most admirable traits that
stands out above the rest-that
person was Eugenia S.
Chapman.

Harper had sex on the brain Feb. 13-
16 thanks to Hwlth Servias' Sexual
Awareness Week. Controversy has sur-
rounded the Health Center's practice
of making free condoms available to
students. As part of Sexual Awareness
Week, the center set up a table filletl
with information ic|saiding condoms
and their use.
Many opponents of the condom
giveaway believe that this practice pro-
motes sexual activity. These people
ignore the fact that the Health Center is
is attempting to make sure that people
who chooae to be sexually active are
protected from disancs and unwanted
pregnancies.
Tlir llari*iiij(fr appbuds the inciu-
sion of an abstinence table next to the
condom display; Information was
made available to people who art-
interested in making abstinence their
choice for protection from diseases and
pregTuncy Sexual inactivity is quickly
becoming a popular choice with young
people in America.
The maintenance of a healthy rela-
tionship was another topic of Sexual
Awareness Week alao showing that sex
is not the most important part of a rela-
tior\&hip. Health Services does an excel-
lent job of helping the whole person.

appealing to teiecommunKa-
tions businesses everywhere
while throwing our first amend-
ment nghts to the wind, signed
the Communications Act of 19%
into law two weeks ago. The
main task the bill was to accom-
plish was to spur telecommimi-
cations development and knock
down several regulatory walb.
Unfortimately, a lot of other
legislation had gotten tacked on
dunng Its long red tape-saturat-
ed journey to the lawlxtoks, not
all ot which is in the general
public's interest
To address the issues raised
by concerned parents about sex
and violence on television. Bill
and Co. have given us the V-
Chip, an electronic chip that will
be installed in all televisions
built for the U.S. markit This
chip will let parents decide what
their children can and cannot
view The beauty of this device is
that it will let each household set
its own limits as to how much
seedy material can get through
without interfering with other
M^^^^dO^
This IS an ideal stilution
because parents can decide on
what they want their children to
view without hindering the
viewing of anyone else. This is
an excellent example of prob-
lem-M>lving technology
Unfortunately the same can-
not be said for the Internet. The
main building blcKks of the
Communicahons Decency Art,
which was tacked on to the main
Communications Act several
months ago. have survived to
become law. Any content of
questionable nature, such as
profanity or adult-oriented
graphics can carry criminal
penalties.
It seems that the same
Congress and House of
Representatives that thought the
V-Chip was the solution to top-
less bimbos with machine guns
on "the tube" didn't feel the
Internet was worthy enough for
Its own version of this tecfinokv
Why this lop-sided legisla-
tion came to be is a question I
cannot answer. It would seem
logical that the same approach
could be used in txith mediums.
It would probably be more use-
ful on a computer anyway, since
most computers get replacec
every couple years to keep up
with ttxhnology. Most televisioii
sets are heavily used for
decade or so.
Whatever you may view orl
the Internet, blocking the
flow of information is more tharl
stopping some perverts fron
distributing child pomographyl
It's about the free exchange ol
ideas It's the freedom to say oi
show what's on your mindl
without the threat of the govem-j
ment telling you what they thin
you should or should not say.
Why some ignorant individuJ
als feel that communication
mediums made possible within
the last several years are exemp^
is a mystery to me. Wasn't
dom of speech one of the basicj
ideas our country was founde
on?
When are the powers in
Washington going to realize thai
the Constitution is not a passiv^
document and that it must
upheld in all situations? Several
of these freedom-robbing publi<|
servants are up for election
fall. If they don't think fred
speech is important, who knows
how they'll deal with othei

A few paranoid thoughts on Political Correctness
rW. Fuller
American Independent
Often, in our struggle for a
more idyll society; to right
wrongs of Ifw past; endeavor
to correct mistakes deemed harmful
or ttut have retarded groups of peo-
ple, we take measures to ensure im-
tory does itot repeat itself.
Wt may pass laws or amend the
constitution to satisfy ttiis necessity.
Sometiines, however, we invent new
strategies.
Political Concctness has gripped
the 90's into a decade of rnm-perpen-
dicular paroxysm and if an eiKl is
near it looms within ihe center of a
dense London fog slKnjldered and
protected by all tfte catastrophes
nature has to offer; quick tempered,
hot headed, aiKl not easily swayed.
Still, many believe if will tiecome
passe by the end of the century.
But while it lasts. Political
Correctness plagues everyone it
touches with its lank and sticky poi-
son; try rubbing it otf and it works
its way under your skin causing hell-
ish itching and burning as it grinds
into every f>ore in your body, also,
no orifice is left undamaged.
Why tfien does Pobhcal
Correctness persist in our society? If
it is such a nightmare, why not aban-
don it?
Because in its infancy it was
laughed at; not taken as a threat; not
scrutinized over closely.
Because back then people
believed it so ridiculous they
tfuiught it could not possibly last.
Now IT has become so powerful
thai very few challenge ITs authority,
especially when high-powered politi-
cians arvd media moguls swear by IT
and eiKourage ITs survival.
IT has ensconced America and
refuses to let up And also because
most of us are blind to ITs danger.
"IT'S still somethung to laugh at,"
we say, under our breath, paymg
particular attention to where the air
carries those words. It would not do
to utter such blasphemies where
there are high winds present.
"IT'S not really a threat to our civ-
ilization," we say, behind closed
doors, triple checking to make sure
all ninety-nine and a half locks are
securely in place, knowing it is never
enough, wondering how many are.
"The day will come when people
take a stand against this scourge,"
we say, twiddling our thumtis in the
meantime, casting an uneven eye on
our neighbor, who may be that per-
son, who may be one of them.
"I could be that person who orKe
and for all slaughters IT," you trum-
pet as loud as you can atop tfie f\igh-
esf mountain peak, only then realiz-
ing your folly, realizing your fate has
been sealed, realizing what now
must be done, so you throw yourself
off, laughing sadistically at your new
found freedom. For tliere is but one
escape from IT.
So you succumb to IT, knowing
tf»e demonic realms from whence IT
came. You cherish IT none-the-less.
regardless of how religious
You allow IT to brainwash you,
control your mind, feed you
thoughts you never dreamed.
Because anj^ing IT has to offer is
1000 times better than death, you
convince yourself.
IT. That is what you recite, taking
special care not to speak ITs real
name. Take an oath and sign your
initials in blood to never stammer
out any word close in proximity..
You know the word; political correct-
ness.
There now, you've gone and said
IT, after promising never to say it
again IT senses that; you know the
consequences.
No super glue is strong enough to
hold you from ITs grip; no govern-
ment relocation program is cuiuiing
enough to hide you from ITs all see-
ing eyes; no underground railroad
deep enough to harbor you from TTk
long elastic arms.
You are doomed for knowing IT
exists. You know what must be done!
Once upon a time the white man counted
Chns Batermm
The Very Right Retf'd
Listen lo me now, good
cfuklren of the faith,
we Caucasians are
rapidly becoming the minor-
ity m America. Is there any
reason to be scared?
Of course there isn't, but I
believe in this day aivl age of
political correctness, the
nghts of the average white
male are overlooked.
The white man today is
viewed as a cold apathetic,
devil slave master, who
could give two cents about
the needs and wants of
minorities, cariitg only for
himself and his bank
account
Many white men are just
the opposite They are very
caring people, with a sense
of accomplishment ai>d
understanding and a love for
human life.
It's just that some people
like their cliildish labels and
don't care to fiiHj out about a
persons past, their skin color
or statishcal standing It
makes you wonder who's a
racist sometimes.
The average white male is
usually the one that takes tlie
blunt of these biased opin-
ions and imfair status quos.
My good white brother,
have you tried to find a job
lately? It's tough, isn't it?
Federal law demands that
every place of business
should have it's "fair" share
of minorities and women.
So if you have the qualifi-
cations that the job icquiies,
if their status quo is low on
minorities or women, sorry
Charlie, that person who
may or may not have the
qualifications ls getting the
job.
What about government
assistance? There's r>o luck
tfiere for the white man,
either
My older brother's wife
recently had a child My
brother didn't have ii«ur-
aiKe, so they applied for
assistance. They still had to
pay a good lick of money for
what uncle Sam didn't pick
up.
I also read an article in
tfie Chicago Tribune last
Saturday about an African-
American woman who has
13 children and no visible
sign of employin«it.
Our Great White Fathers
footed the bill for this
woman to sit around and
have babies who don't even
bother going to school half of
the time. Sounds fair to me.
Why is it when a racial
topic comes up, you ate told
"not to go there"
Why not? Sure, the
comedians on Def Comedy
Jam take pot shots at us all
the time, but if the shoe is on
the other foot, it's called an
ethnic or raaal slur.
You could possibly lose
your job for that. Why is it
taboo to say the word nig-
ger? I'm often called Forrest
Gump, or redneck, because
of my thick accent— both are
just as degrading.
That's OK though,
because I'm white. God for-
bid you say the "N" word
within an earshot of an
African-American, chaiKes
are you just started an alter-
cation with someone you
don't even know, and of
course you are labeled a
racist.
1 believe it all comes
down to this; we ate all bom
into this world with the
same chances and opportuni-
ties as the next person, so
why put labels on ourselves
and expect a larger piece of
the American Pie?
We need to stop looking
at each other like it's a com-
petition on who's better ttian
the other. That is not what
this country is based on.
The best way to sum it up
is with a quote from Neil
Peart: "So tfie Maples
formed a union and
demanded equal rights, the
oaks are just too lofty, we
will nuke them give us light
Now there's ik) mote oak
oppression, for they passed a
noble law and the trees were
kept all equal with hatchet,
ax and saw."
Amen!

When I was part of the squad, we

not like there was mijf iaocntive to

we fifMlly found a place to practice.
The school does iK>t consider us
athletes, therefore we get the space
Uiat is left over when all of the

never cheered back or showed any

join a sport, nor did we get our
names in the athletic programs. We
also did not get any lecogrution for
sittittg at wet, rainy, cold football
games except maybe a push or
shove from a player to get out of
their way. As far as our sponsor
goes it takes a lot to give your time

work when you aren't given as
much as a thank-you. As to this

know what to expect from the show.
"We're sort of all over the map
musK-ally." said OrralJ. Their instru-
mental repertoire includes (but is not
- limited to) guitars, trumpets, organs,
pianos, saxophones, flutes, clarinets,
drums, and basses. Orrall goes into
the studio with sort of a ban>-baned
version of the song, and the test of
the band "fleshes the song out" This
type of approach is unusual, but
allo«vs for much more musical cie-
aiivily. as is evident m the music on
"PomegraiMlt''.
"Pomcgnuiate' wm wcoided on

recording environment gave the
band the freedom to reccxrd at all
hours of the night, wWch helped bol-
ster the spontaneity and creativity
they are known for They experiment-
ed with different sounds because
they had the complete freedom,
being able to record
whatever, whenev
If we were living In
the Garden of Eden, it
Jiwt wouldn't liave tfie
•ame poignancy and
deptli of living on
Earth."
•Frank Orrall
Orrall got the
thematic ideas for
"Pomegranate"
while in New York.
There is a painting
m the Museum of
Modem Art called
"The Expulsion
from the Garden of Eden". In the
painting, Adam and Eve had just
been banished from the Garden for
tasting the forbidden fruit, and they
were being sent into the dark
unknown. The painting touched
Orrall in a very big way.
"If we were living in the Garden
of Eden, it just wouldn't have the
same poignancy and depth of living
on Earth— with heaven and hell on
earth, I think that's sort of a neat com-
bmation", said Orrall,
"All of the things that have hap-
pened to me in my life thai may have
caused strife were all thuigs that
pushed me to another
pLii-e.. 1 look at these as
giits because they
helped me to learn
along the way", said
Orrall
rhis outlook and the
ability to learn and
grow from stressful
events has definitely
shaped this latest CD.
For example, not long ago saxophon-
ist (and Orrall 's partner) Brigid
Murphy was diagnosed with cancer.
She is in remission now, and (thank-
fully) doing very well, according to
Orrall- "God's Gallipoli", on
Pomegranate, was named after the
World War 1 standoff on the Turkish
peninsula, and thematically repre-
sents the band's way of dealing with
that situation
Poi Dug Pondering considers
Chicago to be its home, Orrall, origi-
nally from Hawaii, says he really
likfs the peoplf her«> and he feels
a'allv ((iintortablt'. not to mention he
('rtttTs the cold to the lexas sum-
miTs When thfy an' playing in town,
their stage show can include as many
as twelve people
Orrall enjoys playing live, partly
because ot the fact that they are
required to recreate live what they
treated in the studio. Because this
reproduction is so integral to the
bands live show, showgoers can
expect the unexpected, and the show
promises to be an aural spectacle,
Orrall takes the audience through
at least three facets of the band's per-
sonality—the playful side, the spiri-
tual side, and the sensual side.
Sometimes a visual artist is also pre-
sent at the performances to enhance
the aural experience The show
promises to be an incredible show-
case of musical skill and experimen-
tabon, if "Pomegranate" is any indi-
cation.
Musically, "Pomegranate" encom-
passes many genres, from the dance-
able '"The Chain" to the Doors-esque
"The Shake of Big Hands", from the
emotional "God's Gallipoli" to the
extremely mellow title track. Even if
you've already spent money on a
ticket for the show, check between
your sofa cushions and find money to
buy "Pomegranate", (You won't be
disappointed — cm a scale of 1 to 10 it
deserves an II!)
Tour through Dar Williams' "Mortal City'
VwMieaQonutM
STAFF (NnriR
-Morul City", Dar WiUiams' fol-
U)w up album to "Honesty Room", is
an excellent new release. Her simplis-
tic yet strong songwriting makes her
CD an appealing listen, Williams'
voice, although not anything extraor-
dinary, goes along perfectly with the
soft accompaniment of her acoustic
guitar. The music itself ranges from a
few upbeat songs to some sknver,
moodier inelodies.
Her strongest ability lies in her
witty lyncs in songs like "Christians
and Pagans" artd "The Pointless, Yet
Poignant Crisis of Co-Ed" Dar's
songs are stories that paint a picture
from different aspects of life. She
lings about everything from a past
relationship to "mortal cities". The
titte track "Mortal City" is a disturb-
ing epic about a crisis in a dty: "She
said what kind of people make a city
where you can't see the sky and you
can't feel the ground?" It starts off
with her voice and a piano and then
builds up dramatically as the story is
told
She also incorporates instruments
on this album such as the digeridixi,
cello aiKl mandolin Folk musicians
Lucy Kaplansky, John Prine and
Eileen Ivets also contribute to this
album. This album is not for every-
one, but if anyone is willing to listen,
"Mortal City" has a story to tell that
is worth exploring.

Harper's athletic program will kick
into high gear with the addition of a
women's soccer team that begins com-
petition this fall.
"There have been numerous
inquiries ab*»ut siKcer from the student
body," said athletics ctxirdirutor Ri>ger
Bechtold. "We alsti wanted to increase
the participation in women's sports."
Bechtold wants to begin with a
team of approximately 15 players that
will practice on Harper's newly creat-
ed soccer practice field.
The women's team will comjiete on
the stadium field that is also used by
the men's stKcer team and the ftxjtball
team.
Assistant athletics director Martha
Lynn Bolt contacted sdKX>ls around
the country to get feedback on the pos-
sibility of adding the fast paced sport
to the women's atfUetic program.
Bolt said that everyone she talked to
was enthusiastic about the growing
popularity of women's soccer. Harper
will have s<ime very familiar competi-
tion with teams from College of
IXiPdgo, College of l^e County, and
Moraine Valley. "
Bechtold said, "More schools are
thinking of adding it. There are also a
number of four-year schcwls in the area
that we could play"
The search is on for Harper's first
women's soccer coach. Bechtold is
looking for oxp«?rience, an ability to
work with student-athletes, and the
time to spend on campus to make a dif-

SPORTS EDlTClfi
An already rough season got
rougher last wi-ek for the men's bas-
ketball team when the reister shrank
lo just SIX players and their coach
turned in his resignation.
Coach Ron Creiger turned his rt-s-
ignation into athletics director Roger
Bechtold Feb. 2. Creiger will finish
out the season
"He certainly will be missed as
oui basketball coach He is a true
professional He s a man of integrity
and character He represented
Harper with dignity and pride,"
Bechtold said of Creiger.
Creiger recently earned his first
N4C victory in five season as
Harper's head coach "We weren't
competitive for the first few years-
This year, we are competitive, but we
don't have the bench, " said Creiger
Creiger s tenure at Harper has
not been what he had fujped. but he
leaves with a ptisilive attitude, 1 > er
taWy had some good relation-ships
with some of the players. They are
people I'm pn>ud I coached "
Creiger is l<x>king forward to
spending more time with his three
children and hopes to catch more of
their games.

to play the final six minutes of the
game without a bench when fresh-

they await their post-season fate
'rhe 16 and 17 seeds in the region
face off to see who gets a trip to the
regional tournament Harper figures
to be one of the teams in the shovv
down.
Creiger's team can play the press
and the run. What they can't afford is
to play a team that mixes up their
defense with the press and the run.
Harper's last regular season home Rock Valley was successful in
PMOTO BY SUSAN RAOCNWCHBt
handing the Hawks a full court press
in the first half When Roach fouled
out Rock Valley put Harper on the
run.
The run wore out the Hawks who
were left with an empty bench. It
also forced Harper to be conser\'a-
live on defense-
Harper has already launched a
MMrch tor a new basketball coach.
There is a possibility that Creiger's
replacement would jom the faculty
as a Health instructor in oreler to be
more available on campus.

AASA: ''A celebration of blackness"
ntitxjed from page 1
.Akai agam took iKe *tage
p>mgmg the "Negro National
nthem." after which some
|rrifmbers of the Association
rnt on stage to sing and to
Jclose the program out.
|Booker T Jom-s, president of
African American
elation, closed the prcv
yam fully by thanking
everyone for coming out He
said, "That tfw pn>gram was
a celebration of blackness
We have been through the
'Legacy of Royalty and
through the Drudgery of
Slavery.' and we need to real-
ize that nothing is possible if
we do not stick together, and
support each other."
After the program. Booker
T said, "Praise and credit is
due to everyone who took
part m llw program especial-
ly Tiffaney, Tika and Dorita,
who did an outstanding )ob
in c(x>rdinating the program
The level of performance
made me proud not onK to
be the President of the
African American Student's
AsMXiation, but to be a black
man. Props should always be
given to people who are
keeping it real, and frying to
make it. .Marquis and Ore 1
thank tor this .. tor ki-eping it

MAMMOGRAPHY SCREEN-
US
Breast cancer. In her lifetime, one
out of every eight women wUl get it.
b there any thing a woman can do
to prevent it? Perhaps Recent
research indicates that diet, alcohol
and other lifestyle choices may be
linked to breast cancer. So making
healthy lifestyle changes may
reduce a woman's risk. However,
thses studies are inconclusive and
the cause of breast cancer is not
known What is known is that cer-
tain factors such as a family history
of breast cancer, increasing age and
never having a child can put one at
greater risk.
So what is a woman to do? She
can do monthly self-breast exams
and have her physician examine her
I breasts regularly And if she is over
35, she can get a mammogram.
Mammograms can dectect a lump
two years before it can even be felt.
If breast cancer is detected early,
W?o of cases can be treated success-
fully. While it is not prosentuin,
mammography can save a woman's
life and maybe even her breast.
On March IM4, Harper College
Health Service and St Joseph
HospiUl will bring their Mobile
Diagnostic Services unit to campus
and provide mammogranxs to stu-
dents, employees, and aimm unity
members. The mobile unit is staffed
by paifessionals from St Joseph and
will be kxrated in front of Building
A. The service will be offered
Monday through Thursday
Advanced scheduling is requii«l,
call MT/'iiZS-eOO ext.b268 for an
appointment. The cost of the mam-
ntogram is $65.
The American Cancer Society's
breast cancer screening guidelines
are as follows:
Women 35-40 yeais of age
Baseline mammogram
Women 40-49 years of age
Mammogram every 1-2 years
Women 50 and over
Mammogram every year
If you fuve any possible signs of
breast cancer such as a lump, con-
tact your doctor immediately
Women who have had breast cancer
or are at high risk for the disease
may need more frequent exams and
screening.

FEES: IDOT to add lanes

from Algonquin
The propost'd road work
would cost an estimated
$200,000 of which Harper
cannot afford to p.i\ alont-
ItXlT will fund the projtvt in
exchange for a small stvtion
of property located east of the
pond that parallels
Algonquin.
"We've done very well
with it," said President Paul
Thompson.
IDOT plans to widen
Algonquin sometime in the
future and is willing to work
out a trade with the college.
Harper students will be
able to enjoy an abundance of
mm lanes once the project is
finished.
Board mtmber Richard
Gillette described the
changes lo the Btard, "When
eventhing is done there will
be two turn lanes in each
direction."
The first week of each
semester tests the patience of
Harper students as traffic
waiting to turn left from
Algonquin backs up onto
Roselle Road.
The planned construction
would alieviate the problem
by creating an extra left tum
lane and an extra right tum
lane going into the college.
Board members Richard
Kolze and Gillette have been
a part of the team that is con-
ducting the negotiations with
IDOT.

Orrall took technical difficulties that

He was honest with the audience,

When the feedback was resolved
and the band was ready to begin
again, Orrall showed a sense of

The amazing part was that the
musicians were so pohshed tfut they

I through music and dance? Under lhi» artistic direction ot AminiyiM I'.iv no, the
Muntu Dance Company has been doinp ^u sini.e l'»72 through their rh\ thm>
jnd love for their culture. Their "mission" is to inform and express the beautv

with fHMiK were fieard in the distance Thri>e men and tour women danced
and playtxl African rhythms. The- sound ot the l))emb<> drum carried through
the entire auditorium and beyt>nd It was like entering another place; another
continent. The rhythm was especially entrancing The dancers gathered on-
I stage with commanding presence Fheir costumi-s were hrightK decorated
with different greens, reds, yellows, and purples Shells and beads adorned
their wrists and waists The audience wa^ captivated The Djembe drummers
hit with such force, it Muinded as it thev had palms of stone
Next came a l.iberian dance called the f unga in which the daiKers also
sang. The DuiuJunt^i dance followed. In tfus dance, the women entered the
stage with baskets of beaded necklaces and daivced around the drummers. The
Lamban/Dombah dance was last It is a combination of two dances The
Lamban originated in Mali, Guinea and Senegal It is a traditional dance The
Dombah is from Mali and it means "Big Dance '
Among these dances, the performance was intertwined with insight about
the Muntu DarKe Company The Djembe drummers explained the drum and
its background They wanted to break the notion that they "beat on drums".
They said that it took a lot of skill to play the Djembe drum. The dancers also
told about the research th.it goes into puttmg on a performaiKe. They try to
learn all they can about African culture.
Audience participation also played a part in the performance. The audience
was asked to sing and resporid to some phrases It was entertaining and
insightful to catch a glimpse of Afncan-American history.

However, it was only a glimpse; the performance lasted for an hour which
was disappointing because it built up a lot of energy and it ended rather
abruptly.
Overall, people liked the performance. Adeline Back, a teacher from school
distnct 21 said, "It was excellent, they have so much respect for their culture."
loseph Ward, a student at Harper College said, "It was on a scale of one to ten,
a nine It was one of the best performances at Harper in months." Charles and
Ted Danylak, alsc5 students at Harper called it a "superb" performance.
The Muntu Dance Company did an excellent job of cducahng and portray-
ing African-Amencan culture.

Justify a need to
increase lab fees
For the second time in three yean, the
Harper Board of Trustees unanimously
approved to increase lab fees. These lab
feen tvill already accompany the new one
dollar technology fee, the three dollar
increase in tuitian, and the property tax
increase that CocA County will be hit with.
Also the board deoded to abolish the
piflting fee and the transcript Ices, but
added a registration fee. TMfticgiMration
fee will take the place of the o0wr two
Ims, but will not be used to fix die prob-
lems concerning the registration piocess.

Is the flat tax slanted to the rich?
ftmCfBrmi
The Ed's View
It one day is dreaded by more
Americans than any o^r it's
April 15th, better known as
the last day to turn in taxes. After
our initial fits of cursing the
heartless rrunions of the Internal
Revenue Service and paying
huge fees to companies like H. tc
R. Block or Jackson Hewitt, we
wonder if there is a better way to
handle tfie whole fiasco.
With the presidential elections
coming up later this year, the tax
system is undm aUAoi fire by
several candidates. Most notably.
Steve Forbes, son of the late pub-
lishing mogul Malcolm Forbes
St., Yias been touting a tax concept
called the flat tax, and garnering
a huge amount of press in the
process.
The flat lax concept has been
kicked around for years. Studies
have been cocHlucted by both pri-
vate individuals and various
organizations. It attempts to sim-
plify our current taxation system
by taxing everyone at one flat
rate (17% m Forbes' version),
while eliminating most deduc-
tums and exemptions. In its
puicsl form il t.s d fair approach
because everyone pays the same
peKentj^ of their income to the
IRS
Forbes adds a fiew twists.
First ot all, kiss all of those
deductions you may currently be
using good-bye, including deduc-
tion for charitable offerings or
mortgage interest You get a flat
deduction for the number of peo-
ple in your household and lots of
leniency for investment income,
tfie latter of which will cater
especially to tht>se living off of
investment plans like insurance
or retirement.
It's been working for him
quite mcely He's doing lietter
than most people ever thought he
would. Once wntten off for dead,
he's now a force to be reckoned
with. He's made waves to die
point that other candidates have
proposed flat tax plans of their
own.
Families with a pre-tax
income in the mid 6-digit range
or atx)ve tend to save a heap of
money. Individuals who depend
on investments for a large chunk
of tfieir income will also come
out smelting like a rose.
You kiiow that old adage of the
top 5% of the people controlling
90% of the wealth? This is it.
There's a tiny s'itch to all of
this — where does the govern-
ment reclaim all of the tax dollars
that the upper class will no
longer pnnide' 1 think we all
know who's going to pick up the
bill on that one.
The funny thing with taxes is
that fairness is hardly "fair" It
would only seem fair that every-
one pay the same percentage of
their income to the government.
After all, why should someone
else get away with paying less
taxes than someone else? But in
order for taxes to be fair for
everyone, the middle and lower
classes must make up for the
huge amounts of money no
longer being supplied by the rich,
ai\d that's where the problem is.
the current bias is alreadv
towards the middle and lower
classes.
Far too many people are con-
fusing a flat tax with a simple
tax. Cutting the number of
deductions does not take Oie
Mallox out of slapping your John
HaiKOck onto a Form 1040. The
fact thai most people need a full-
time tax speaalist to help them
understand the plethora of tax
laws is ludicrous.
It is just as possible to have a
complex flat tax as it is to have a
simple structured tax. It would
probably even encourage people
to learn more about how to make
their money work for them
through investments since a great
deal of difficulty would be elimi-
nated. Aside from those obvious
benefits, a simple tax system
would free the $80 billion we
spend each year in tax prepara-
tion costs for more useful purpos-
es.
Before Election Day gets here,
let the candidates know what
America really needs. Ctmtrary to
what many of us believe, it can
get worse if left unchecked. The
current system is overstressed,
outmoded, and inefficient. But it
can be changed

Cheerleader escapes brutal
torture; tallts candidly about
ciieerleading dilemma
I am writing to respond to your article
about the "Kidnapfied Cheerleaders." I
t(H) was once a Lady Hawk chtvrleader,
and let me tell you sometfung, it was awful.
In high schiHil, I cheered lor tour years, and
was voted the "Most Spirited '
I came to Harper in 1W4 and )oined the
cheerleading squad 1 thought it would be
fun and a great way to meet people, but I
was wrong All of the girls were rude,
includmg the coach.
No one had any kind of spirit. We prac-
ticed only two times a week, and then had
game's.
We would never go lo any "away"
games, because the coach didn't want to
drive, and it was ttxi mconvenient The
ciiach >aid we didn't have to go to games
either, so no one went.
I Ix'lieve that they should tell this coach
to get her act together, or they should find a
new one.
Whv should tlarper even bother to have
.1 squad il then- is no commitment or spirit^
I think it is an embarr,issment to the team
and the schtxil.

THEMCHGmDAaY
ANN ARBOR. Mich -The
black, military style vehicle
adorrwd with a white Nike
swDOiih logo has becomt- a
familiar site at some ot the
nation > larj;t>t collrgi- toot-
ball stadiums.
Shoe and athletic wear
companies long ago n\ili/-ed
the value of conni»cting their
products to premii-r athletes
and teams Professional teams
and players have picked up
big money from endorsement
deals.
Now many others ot the
nation's college athletic pow-
erhouses have entered the
marketplace and found it just
as profitable Tlie new form of
corporate involvement has
caused college presidents to
become concerned about
whether schi>ols jre ceding
contnil of their athletic pro-
grams to companies such as
Nike.
Last year, tfw Umversity ol
Michigan's Athletic
Department signed a six-year,
$7 2 million contract w ith
Nike, which provides appan-l
and sv:hi>larship money to all
of the universitv s 2^ varsity
teams
Such deals loster an envi-
ronment in which athletes
might be more tempted to
accept money or gifts from
player agents or boosters in
violation of National
Collegiate Athletic Assoc-
iation rules, or leave school
well before their scheduled
graduation dates, said Tom
Hansen, commissioner of the
Pacihc-lO Conference.
Today it takes a lot of
money to mamtain a lifestyle
on a college campus," said
Hansen, whose league has
had to cope this fall with
investigations of NCAA rules
violations by UCLA and USC
football players.
Because of the NCAA's
amateurism rules, college ath-
letes can receive only tuition,
room, board and books from a
university In addition. sch«>l-
jrship athletes cannot hold
paving |obs Junn^ schmil
In a recent interview with
The Michigan Daily, UM
Athletic I>iriftor Jcx- RoK-rson
defended the University's
contract and said a numtier of
things people point to in
attacking it are not true
"The student-athletes ben-
efit from our contract with
Nike. No one nets a penny. "
Rc->berson said "We );et a vou-
pte of s<-holarships, a general
residciKe program that
tfiey'rc sponsoring, equip-
ment tor ail our teams-not |ust
the two high— profile ones
that are on television all the
liiru- — and every penny of it
goes back into the support of
"To pretend we're
not commercial is
absolutely silly."
- Joe Roberton
University of Michigan
Athletic Director
the student athletes, and I con-
sider that a big step forward."
The nation's colleges gen-
erated $2.5 billion in retail
sales of products bearing their
names, logos and mascots last
year— more than was generat-
ed by the National Hockey
League or Major League
Baseball. Unlike professional
teams, the colleges make indi-
vidual arrangements with
manufacturers of products
such as sweatshirts, pennants,
stickers and mugs.
Some schook fiave deals
witfi as many as 500 compa-
nies, each of which may make
a different item and many of
those businesses are relatively
small.
Nike and other large shoe
and apparel makers, such as
Reebok, have the national ori-
entation, advertising budgets
and marketing savvy to help
colleges sell more gixnis in
more places Nike posted sjles
of about S5.2 billion during
the 12 months ending Sept, 31),
1995 and iS) million ol that
came from its two-year effort
to sell authentic college team
apparel-the items worn by
players and coaches during
games that have become
increasingly popular with
fans.
UM Classical Studies Prof.
David Ross s.iid he opposes
the Nik(' conlrjit and the
commerLiah/.ing ot ciiUegiatc
athletics in general. "1 think it
stinks, I think it's crass com-
mercialism. It's .itxsolutely
crass. Why dix's .i university
want to get inviilved in this
kind of money' The entire
athletic department is far too
big. It's all about money and
commercialism," Ross said.
"To pretend we're not com-
mercial is absolutely silly,"
Roberson said "We charge
100,000 people roughly 25
bucks a head to get into the
stadium and we sell them
everyttung we can possibly
sell them, and then we try to
pretend we're not commer-
cial."
School officials say these
arrangements are matters of
necessity. In a time of increas-
ing costs, they are attempting
to add programs for women
without cutting programs for
men-
Seven of the 10 schools that
have all-sports pacts with
Nike or Reebok are ranked
among the top 2.S in the
Associated Press fcKitball poll;
two others are ranked among
the top 20 in AP's mens bas-
ketball poll.

Michael McDrrmott
sounds a hit tiJte Cony Halt
vocally, but his musicai style
ia more like that of Bruce
Homsby or Don Henley For
the most part, the tracks are
fairly melkiw, with the occa-
sional rocker mixed in for a
perfect blend ol csr-pleat-
ing music.
Highlights -Bells-.
"Forever", Su/ie's Co* a
Brand New Hat", and a hid-
den track (#45) that my
computer found. (I think
irs caikd "It's KiUing Me~,
but since it was hidden it
wasn't listed on the liner
notes.) "Bells" has a killer
piano part which blends
perfectly with the test of the
song, and the result is a
poignantly emotional feel
'bdt carries thmugh much of
rse record.
McDrrmott played mmt
of his own instruments, but
got tielp from some other
musicians on a couple of
tracks. John Carpender of
Mystery Driver played
drums for "Suzie's Col a
Brand New Hal". One par-
ticularly interesting sound
is the bagpipes (Bruce
Erskine) on "Legendary"
The bass made it sound
almost Bowie-esque. All in
all. the disc represents a
very strong effort from

Al Rose has been getting
a considerable amount of

mostly jazz, with a hint of

the Red Hot Chili Peppers,
with a draslKally dift^ienl
vocal styte. A icinale singer
came in toward the end. and
her voice had an almost
goapel-iike (|ua]ity.
Rose's entire CD is an
eclectic blend of folk iazz.
with a touch of rock and the
slighlcsl hint of the blues.
Other highlights: "We re
Ck>ing Down",
" Destination; Lost",
"Rodeodeo". It was aesthet-
ically pleasing to the ear; a

Also look for a 7" single of "She Won't French

Cathy Richardson
Fooh on a Tandem
Jessica Records
Local songsticas Cathy Richanison's sec-
oi¥J effort aimes fortfi with a vengeaiKe. The
firat smgle, "Down for the Count" has been
getting some fairly heavy airplay locally, and
it was also mentioned in the entertainment
industry's Billboard Magaziiw a couple of
weeks ago as a ht>t up-and-coming single.
Rumor has it that Richardstm has attractixi
attention from some major bbels with her lat-
est disc.
Other highlights of the disc include
"Twisted Arrow", "Not the Only One",
"Running Out of Time" and the live version
of "O Starry Night, Sorry Night" Richardson
ntanages to sound tough yet sUghtly vulnera-
ble on most tracks, a f<>at that few female per-
formers maruge with such poise.
Richardson has a long and prosperous
career ahead of her With a sound that's sort
of in between mafor-label artists the Indigo
Girls and Melissa Etheridge. Richard'-on is
sure to keep putting out quality music for
many years to come.
Joel Frankel
If Petrr Pans Out
Waterdog Records
With a sound that's part Counting Crows,
part Mellencamp and a big part folk, Joel
Frankel has put out a very enjoyable disc.
Much of his career in Chicago has been for
fans under three feet tall— now comes some-
thing fans of all ages can enjoy.
Highlights: "tk>d, I Need Coffee" (some-
thing any college student can relate to),
"Eastern Standard Time", "So Much To Do"
and "Second Best". The result: an excellent
way of proving himself as a serious song-
writer, iwt just a songwriter for kids
Frankel's first serious album is well worth
taking for a spin (or ten or a hundred) — he
proves with this album that he is not only a
great songwriter but a songwriter who can be
enjoyed by many a generation, and a musi-
cian who will be around for many more years
focome.

Whitehouse Records
Stevi- llcrbch, fdrmfrly of the Bad

cians Mystery Driver sits somt^where on the
musical spectrum between rock and blues,
giving them a unique sound that has been
taking off in Chicago. The Fabulous
Thunderbirds came to mind while listening to
this disc.
Highlights of the disc included "Sideways

"Don't Tell Motel" Tfie eck-ctir mix of electric
blues with rock and mil makes for a killer

Commentary
The Harbinger
Match 15, 1996
Our view
Quit complaining
and vote already!
The Harbinger urges each and
every voter to get to the polls and
vote. The right to vote has been
fought on many fronts in the histo-
ry of the United States Women and
blacks fought with their hearts,
minds and sometimes lives in order
to guarantee this freedom in our
country.
Compalints about elected offi-
cials are heard at every level of
government, including student
government. However, when elec-
tion time rolls around, voter partic-
ipation IS frighteninj»ly low The
city of Chicago has announcfd that
voter registration is at an all-time
low for the March 19 primary.
Low voter participation leads to
a small minority determining the
future make-up of our government.
Those who refuse to exercise their
right to vote will have no one to
blame but themselves.
Unfortunately, bad elected officials
do things that affect us all.
The Harper College Student

It seems like everv' expert in

man\ ot these ideas hold ment,
the law has not been so able or

Amenca as a whole has started
showing felons, rapists, criminals,

mercy than they should e\ er
receive. The tact that so many chil-

the onj-s who are perfectK sani'
and can differentiate right and

under 18 is disgusting.
Most of the kxal area news-

If convicted as adults, and
there is no guarantee that this will
happen, these kids will face up to
17 years in the slammer But why
stop there? If 1 was one of the
beaten or pelted, I'd want a cou-

gun at these young ones.
What bothers me even more is
the people who claim that chil-
dren like these need psychological
help For what, so a highlv-paid
doctor can tell us that these kids.

Resources like this would t>e

Knowing the difference
between right and wrong can be a
difficult thing when you're a
teenager. But knowing not to do
something if you don't fully
understand it is something you

As I've rattled off a million
times before, raising our children
correctly begins in the home. If
you don't know how to raise a
child or are unfit to be a parent,
you never should have attempted
to conceive one. Today's delin-
quent children are tomorrow's
junkies and burdens on society.
A crime is a crime, regardless
of the age of the person commit-
ting it. Anytme who commits one
des»Tvcs nothing less than prose-
cution to the fullest extent of the
law. If someone keys my car, robs
me of my shoes, or attempts to

childhLK>d," or my personal
favorite, "Ini a victim of society,",
is going to s,n e them. They're
"goin' downtown."
I'm not asking for a total o\ er
throw of the American justice sys-
tem I )ust don't feel like bivoming
a statistic because of another per-
si>n's negligence or bci.iusi' some
kid decides that the l.iv\ does not
apply to him/her I don't think
anybody else does, either.
This kind of scum deserves no
less.

No green card? Better get Royko
TW Fulhrr
American Independent
When Mike Royko sat down
J few weeks ago and began
writing his Feb 27th col-
umn for the Chicaifo Tribune, little did
he know then that the finished prcxl-
uct would spark a new Mexican-
American War
Actually it wasn't much of a wjr

to Its natural decorum
Except for iww last attack from a
very desperate and unqualified

Royko. the world tontinui-s to turn
Still, It would b»' thouKhlle>s nol
to acknowledge the murage <>l lhi>
politician With all the far greater
and mort' important problems premis-
ing the citv of ChKago he took it
upon himsfll to make Royko his
number one pnority.
It isn't every politician that would
show their inaptitude on the first
day
To the issue at hand - it may be
painful to repnnt what Royko has
said about Mexico and Mexicans
But lets do It anyway'
"Besides doing nothing to prevent
Its surplus citizens fn>m sneaking
into this country, it is a corrupt
narci>state that pumps tons ot drugs
into this countv, " writes Royko
He continues with, "It s police
and pi'liticians a real slea/v crowd -
are owned b\ the drug t>oss«.'s '
Such n'marks have angered many
.Americans with Mexican heritage,
who have labeled them as racist
But by examining them, the truth is
e\ idem
Mexico does not do anything to
prevent its citi/ens fn>m crossing the

her square datKing Wsmuu to buy a
border. It is glad to be rid of them
because those who do cross are most-
ly poor, uneducated and of no use to
Mexico.
As for Royko calling Mexico's
police and politicians a sleazy crowd-
Havcn't we lixiked upon our own
legislators w ith disgust and called
them every name in the book?
"A corrupt narco-state thai pumps
tons of drugs into this country " The
truth IS that Mexico supplies drugs to
America.
In the Chicago Tribune article,
"U.S. pressure in drug war angers
Mexico' (front page), it states that,
"The United Stales may stxm declare
that Mexico has been insufficiently
diligent in fighting the hde of drugs
flowing into the t.S "
It goes on to read (on page 13),
"Mexico remains a major transship-
ment point for ciKaine and other ille-
gal drugs destined tor the US Drug
smuggling across the long US -
Mexican border is rampant."
If the Mexicans weren't so over-

whelmingly apathetic,and had as
much gumption as their relatives
who legally immigrated here, some-
thing might be accomplished.
Ironically, the country, wnich is
something of a safe zone for legal
Mexicans and which is becoming
increasingly intolerant of illegal
Mexicaas might have to intercede cm
behalf of Mexico by investing heavily
in individual businesses that have a
chance to succeed.
It is not something America ought
lo do, but it is because the Mexicans
refuse to take any initiative them-
selves, aside from fleemg across the
border legally or not, that the U.S.
may be forced into it.
And If is because of this influx of
immigrants that the U.S. must do
something in the immediate future to
protect its own interests, even if it
means acting as a parent or guardian
to Mexico unhl the people there
grow up and learn responsibility for
themselves.
Dole's VP a mystery; few
notable names surface
Frank Bt\'fl
Staff lolumnist
w
th Bob Dole as the virtual
preMdential nominee for
the n'publican party this
year, it is about time to start speculat-
ing .>n who his potential running
mate coulii he
Most people involved in
Republican circles teel that Lkile will
be forced to pick someone more ct>n-
servative than himself to appease a
ma|or voting block oi his party, much
like C>orge Bush pii ked Llan Quale
m N88
A short list ot possible candidates
of this type would include Covemor
lohn Engler of Michigan and
Governor Tommy Thompson of
Wisconsin. As consi-rv ative as these
two are. they bi.)th have their weak-
nesses rhompsi>n comes triim a
small state with only eleven electoral
voles and Kngler did not endorse
LX'le early enough in the pnvess,
Colin Powell would be the smart
choice politically because ot his cur-
rent populantx but I'hil t^ramm toltl
Dole the only w.i\ he would entiorse
Dole IS It he promised nol to pick
Powell
Senator Kick Santoaim is a
strong possibility, he comes from a
large state Pennsylvania, is young
(about IT-vears old), and he is
appeasing to the conservalu •">.
The only pniblem with him
IS that he would get mercilessly cru-
cified bv the liberal media over his
age and positions on the issues.
This brings us lo Gtwemor Edgar.
Right now, he would be the perfect
choice He is a gixid seasoned cam-
paigner, ready to move up m the
political world
He just won a landslide re-4'ks:-
titvn victory in l'W4 and could easily
deliver Illinois 22 electoral votes,
which would take away a state
Clinton won in '92 and would proba-
bly win m 'th it l-dgar were not on
this ticket.
This pn-sents an interestmg prob-
lem for our stale if a Dole-Edgar tick-
el wins and Ll Governor Bob Kustra
wins Paul Simon's vacant Senate
seal.
The next in line is Attomey-
CrfTieral )im Ryan He would become
Governor, but would nol be able to
pick a l.t Governor, as the Illinois
Constilulum calls for no replacement
lo be picked until the next regular
election
So. don't be tiHi surpnsed if the
above scenario takes place In faci, 1
think Edgar has the inside track on
getting the VP. nomination despite
his pro-atxirtion stance because of his
earlv support of Dole and the fat t
that he campaigned personally for
him in Iowa
And , of course, Edgar wants this
promohon to the nahonal spotlight—

Clothesline a dramatic reminder of

The gong, as well as whistles

The Harbinger I
Aprils, 19% I
GLB ''group" bars Harbinger reporter from meeting
Final Exam Schedule
Ml* ThompMH
fCWS EDITOR
A Harbinger reporter was bartned from th«
Harper College Gay, Lesbian, aiHl Bisexual
meeting March 14. The gathering was pre-
sented by Student Development who provid-
ed the meeting place in building 1 nxim 117.
This was the first meeting in recent years
by a college sponsored group that has not
allowed the Harbinger to attend their meet-
Signs posted around the campus and an ad
that ran in the Feb. lb issue of the Harbinger
prompted statt writer Rose Marie Hylton to
cover the GLB meeting like she would any
other club on campus. "I wanted to inform
the students about the meeting the same way
1 cover multicultural events."
Hylton said her exclusion from the meet-
ing came after Student Development
Couitielor and GLB advisor Andy Howe
questioned her about her sexuality. After
finding out she wasn't gay, lesbian or bisexu-
al and that she was a reporter for the
Harbinger he said she couldn't attend the
meeting.
"I'm glad I made the decision not to let her
(Hylton) into the meeting. "Howe said "If
Hyltcm would have said she was gay I may
have let her m, but not to report the stor)- "
Howe MuJ, "Stnce it was our first meeting,
niy concern was to provide a safe and secure
environment ft>r the stiadcnia."
Mark G<x)dman, fmam liiir Sludcfil Pwsm
Law Center in Washingtcm DC , said if the
group IS sponsored by the college and is hav-
ing a publicized me«*ting on the campus them
the meeting should be open to all students.
Goodman said. "The gn>up discnmmated
against the reporter based on her sexualitv'
and her status as a journalist."
Harper Communications Oiivclor Amy
Hautnitmn Mid it surpriges her somewhat to
hear that a reporter was banned from attend-
ing a meeting that was hdd on campus. She
said the best place to look for answers as to
what the policies are is Student Activities
Director Jeanne Pankanin.
Pankanm said the students that met on
campus were not an official Harper club.
She said the group has not been given any
funding by student activities yet.
Pankanin said. "They (the GLB) are not
officially a club until they file the necessary
paper woi k. so there's really no way to eval-
uate the situation."
Caroline Saccomano, Student Senate V'lte-
Presidcnt, said there are two kinds of clubs on
campus: an open club which gets funding
from the college, therefore it's open to all stu-
dents, and a restncted club which gets no
funding from the college, therefore the mem-
bership is closed.
Student Activities Cix>rdinator, Michael
Neiman said the college should allow for a
safe environment for the students to meet in
"Thev have the right to a confidential setting.
We live in a violent society where the public
feels its O.K. to bash gays," he said
Neiman said that because the group was
meetii^ to discuss gay, lesbian and bisexual
issues, they should be treated in a different
way than other clubs on campus
Roderick Brown, a student development
counselor who attended the meeting, said he
thinks the reporter wasn't let in because of
privacy issues. But he has no comment as to
what happened between Howe and the
Harbinger n*ptirt«!r.
Howe -Hiid the status of continuing the
GLB IS undedTmined He plans to have
another meeting on campus to decidf
whether or not to apply for college binding
He said, "The next time we meet 1 see no
pn>blem with letting the Harbinger in; as
kmg as it's O.K. with the students."

versation with a recruiter, send a
thank you note immediately after the

A victim's reaction to the Clothesline
PHOTO BV SOSAN HAOEM*Cl€H
It was 14 years ago in California, but on March 13 in build-
ing A it was only a clothesline away.
1 thought that 1 had put the memories of that frightening day
in an unreachable part of my memory. The terror and anger
were supposed to be gone.
I'd heard about the life-long affects of violent acts. 1 thought
that I was different. He never got a chance to hurt me physical-
ly. I was spared by a voice in a crowd.
The police came and 1 told them my story. Months later, a
judge would not give me the same opportunity, because my
attacker's lawyer had cut a deal.
Some deal. He received two years of probation because the
judge said, "he's only a kid."
Five years ago he shot his girlfriend in the head, "by acci-
dent." She's alive and now he's in jail.
I had put all of this behind me until I saw the shirts hanging
from the clothesline. Tears rolled down my face as 1 read each
and every one.
I was compelled to make a shirt too. 1 let all of my emotions
pour out of the paint bottles and onto the shirt as I boldly
painted the words that had been locked away for so long:
"NO! Take back your life! Justice is blind but 1 am a survivor!
It's my body and my life!"
I am one of the lucky ones who survived. The Clothesline
reminded me of that. Those memories are no longer locked
away, because I'm not afraid of them anymore.

The Harbinger
April 5, 1996
Our view
They can do it,
why can't we?
V\rith everyone asking tor more
money, we at the Harbinger think
that maybe we should be given
more also.
Recently the board approved
to raise tuition two dollars, which
means it you take 15 credit hours
you will be charged an extra $30
per semester. That two dollars
adds up after a while doesn't it?
So with raising fees, and
tuihon, we believe that we can
charge students $.25 for each
issue of the newspaper Yes, it
has been brought to our attention
that nobody will read the news-
paper, but that's the price we
have to pay to make more money
(no pun intended).
We also realize that with initi-
ahng this new $.25 charge the
news will need to sell itself. So
attention all students go out and
make news for ii> to use. lump
off a building, otfe nd tach and
lAery public safto\ olticer. Do
what ever it takes to get your
name in print. Believe us it's
worth it.
Then again we at the
Harbinger don't need to sell our
newspaper, we don't need for
you to jump off of buildings or
do Mv of thi>se cra/y antics
because we aren't going to ask
students to buy our newspaper
Maybe the board could use s«)me
of our common sense thinking to
better themselves in the future

T W fuller
American Indqtendent
There is a vinous and
somewhat synoptic
debate brewing in con-
gress over whether to lilt the
ban on assault weapons or
kec'p It m place
While groups like ttu'
NRA insist the law is uncon-
stitutional, polls indicate the
vast majonty of Americarvs
want to keep tfie law mtact.
1 1 IS a common scene,
played over and over witfiin
the halls of congressional
legislation: one person (sav, a
relative of slain President
lofui F
Kennt"dy)
voices con-
cerns that lilt-
ing the ban
will do more
to promote
crime than to
prevent il in
the long run
Another per-
son (say, a
politician con-
cemi'd al-Kiut
his wile King left alone)
argues that she ought to
have the right to protect her-
sell from intruders, maybe
v^ith a t»n Icsil ba/iHika on
her shoulders or a fifty
pound Ak 47 strapfx\i to
her person, i omplele with
one hundred niunds ot
ammunition
While thev are equallv
impassioned tor a certain
point ot V lew, their use ol
pleonasm does them both a
discredit, and shows wh\ a
r»MMiiiable settlement has
not and cm not. Iv reachevl
Il Is either a constitutional
right to bear arms (including
any ass.iull weapon on the
market) Or. if certain
weapons are banned, il may
lead down a path banning
others
This kind of prattle has
btvn st.iied to the point of
overbelateifness
IVe neeil tresh ideas th,it
combat old conjtYtures if the
NRA s grass"roots" organi-
zations aniund the countrv
are to be extirpated
What hasn t tx^en heard,
or mentioned or even sp*.vu-
lated upon is common sj-nse
Such virluositv. it si-ems, is
never prevalent at nmgn-s-
sional debates, perhaps
thought ol as tixi sacrile-
gious
It, in lad. common sease
was ever to be interjected, it
would be learned that no
person suggests for all
weapons to be banned, only
those that have no purpose
other than to kill indiscrimi-
nVe need fresh
ideas that combat
old conjectures if
the NRA's grass
"roots" organiza-
tions around the
country are to be
extirpated."
nately A hand gun, shot-
gun, or rifle is sufficient and
protection enough to get the
job done
The NRA will argue that
It Ls a matter of rights TTus
IS a gniss prevaricahon The
second amendment, while it
states ttu- right to bare arms,
does not provide descTip-
lions of particular weapons.
Therefore, we are free to
mterpret just what arms
may be suitable.
Who can claim the right
to own a nuclear, or even an
atomic weapon?
It IS a simple matter ot
cvimmon sense. Our forefa-
thers intended
for us to have
the right to
defend our
home from
those vN-ho
would wish to
lake It away or
do harm upon
the land, they
realized the
importance of
self defense and
made provi-
siOTB under fhi' stvond
amendment
But to think thev would
have agreed and stood by
the NRA in their claim to
owning weapons that serve
no purpcise other than to kill
amither human bemg^
I >bviously they would not
have concurred
M<isl importantl)-, what
nivds lo be addressed is the
rea.son behind wanting to
own such a weapon
.-M'ter all, there is very little
An assault v\eapi>n <au b..-
usee' (or
lo s,n that it makes a
"prettv ■ decoration over the
m.inlle is an inadei)uale
rebuttal To sav that it
makes killing an intruder
simpler and mon- fun may
have Its merits, but nowhere
near enough to claim legiti-
mac\ A hand gun can kill
an intruder dead, (ust as well
.Is anv assault weapon
If a senator tcvis Ihat
stronglv towards his wile
Ix-mg unprotivted, perhaps
he would better serve his
country- by her side, instead
of up iin capital hill where
he can ilo no gcxxl
I inally, ask yourself this
cjueslRin How safe and
secure would you feel living
in a neighborhcKxl wheie
you knew for fact every citi-
zen owned a gun'
Then ask yourself this
queshon How sate would
you feel livirig in a neigiibor-
hood where you knew for a
fact tliat no citizen owned a
gun?

Styx reuniting tliis summer
Laura Garrison
*RTS & ENTERTAINMENT EDITOR
"Styx it is in '96!"
-James "JY" Young
"If the Eagles said hell would
freeze over and Ihey got back togeth-
er, anything is pt>ssible I believe in
my heart that there will be a Styx
reunion before the end of the centu-
ry, but only fools are surv"
These were the words lames "JY"
Young sf><ike about a vf>ir ago We as
St\ A tans won't have to wait until the
tdge of the Century In what can
only be called the prophesy of the
decade for any Sty x fan, there will be
a reunion tour this summer
The reunion has been something
that has been in the works for quite
some time. The last studio album
with the whole band intact. "Kilroy
Was Here", was recorded over a
decade ago. After the release of
"Kilroy", members
decided to go their
separate ways due
to creative differ-
ences. Since
"Kilroy", members
of Styv have moved
in diflerent circles
(and kept their
hometown ties heri' in Chicago) only
to wind up with their paths crossing
almost coastantlv.
Dennis l> Young, Young, Chuck
Pano/zo and John Panoz/o teamed
up With C.len Burtnick and i>ther
musicians to record "Edge of the
Century", but that mini-reuni>in
lacked one kev plaver Tommv Shaw
Shaw had been working on several
musical projects with the likes of
"Terrible Tt"d' Nugent and also with
Jack Blades (formerly of Night
Ranger), perhaps the most notable
was Damn Yankees
Youngs most recent project, The
lames Young tiroup, included much
collaboration from Glen Burtnick in
the Mingwriting department Tven
while recording his own projects.
Young seemed to feel that his great-
est musical achievements came dur-
ing the times he spent with Styx. "A
part of me will alwavs be there," he
told The Harbinger last viar
Then a very interi-stmg thing hap-
pened. A&M Records which had
released a compilation ot Styv' great-
est hits a few years back, was unable
to place one of their earlier hits
("Lady") on the compilation This
was because when Sty x first began as
a band, they recorded for a label
called Wooden Nickel When
approached, Wix)den Nickel refused
to give up the nghts to the song so
that it could be included on the com-
pilation.
A&M released the compilation
without "l-ady", and it went on to
sell quite impressively. However,
Mimething was missing. Then, a cou-
ple of years ago someone at A&M
came up with a brilliant plan: have
the original members rereiord the
song to be iiu ludcxl on another com-
pilation of their greatest hits.
I ast spring, the plan became real-
ity The original members got togeth-
er In the studio to rerecord "l.ady" as
"Lady '45", The new compilation
would not only
include "Udy '95 ', it
would also include
"l.oreler', which was
overlooked when
they issued the first
compilation
When the record was
released, it was
expected to have mixiest sales, so
most record stores didn't stock many
copies. The result: it quu klv became
verv hard to come by — stores sold
out of It almost as last as it came in,
according to Rob Gillis of
Whitehouse Records
With an album that exceeded
sales evpivtalions and the knowl-
edge that they could all wt.rk togeth-
er once again, the members of Styx
recently decided that they wanttxi to
play together once again Currently,
their only plan is to plav together
and see how it goes.
Styx will indi-ed tour the United
States this summer, and they may
also tour |apan. Ihey will be releas-
ing a new album of mostly i ild songs, •
"Greatest Hits Part 2" w ithin the next
couple of months. The new compila-
tion will include three brand-new
>ongs— two Dennis DeYbung songs
which are more pop-oriented, and
one rock song written by Tommy
Sfuw
According to lames Young, 'Styx
m % It is... it will be Styx in '%."

"I'm very happy with our overall
performance. >aid Garrett I ttvl a

The formal complaint tiled by
Josetina Campos-Ruera, claimed
that nevvlv fleeted Student
Trustee, .Antoine Stank made slan-
derous remarks about his oppo-
nent, La\ elle Velez in the cafeteria
on campus
Rivera said she heard Starek
saying sexual comments about
Velez with his friends.
A source close to the election
committee said, "Saying bad
things about pt-ople in an election
doesn't break any bi-laws, so the
committee couldn't take any
action."
Starek said he had no knowl-
edge that a formal complaint was
filed, or that if went in fnjnt of the
election committee. He admitted
to being in the cafeteria with his
friends talking about the election,
but he strongly denied saying any-
thing about Valez, "The complaint
is ridiculous," he said.

ETHICS: Ballot boxes left unattended
Continued from page 1
"It was a dirty campaign-"
Velez said Tve lust a lot o(
respect for Harper becauae erf
the election ptxKess."
Student Acti vines
Director, Jeanne Pankanin
said several complaints were
brought to her attenhon, but
none were formally filed
within the required 24 hour
period after the polk closed.
Therefore, no administrative
action could be taken.
Pankanin said she takes
ail complaints very senoasly,
"1 have personally checked
out each one," she said " But
there> no way to verify the
complaints because they
were either anonymous or
second hand "
One complaint reported to
the student activities office
was by Harper student,
Tiffany Faber "I went to vote
on April 10 and there was no-
body at the voter's box at the
information booth in build-
ing A." She said, "All the bal-
lots were left out, so 1 didn t
vote there because I thought
there was a problem. I ended
up going to buildinjj I to
vote."
Faber wasn't alone in her
concern about the unattend-
ed ballot box. Phi Theta
Kappa President, Diane
Novak also went to vote in
building A the same day, and
found the same scenario 1
went to the information
btwlh to vote and no one was
there. 1 voted, put my ballot
in the box and left, it was
very strange," she said
A source close to the elec-
tion committee said no ballot
boxes were left unattended
Someone was there at all
times to oversee the voting.
Faber said she didn't
know she had to file a written
complaint about the ballot
bo.v m order to have student
activities investigate the
problem "They (the student
activities office) should be
skeptical about the votes
from the box in building A,"
she said.
Speaking on condition of
anonvmily, a Harper student
said she received a student
activities card at the business
office without showing any
identification. She said, "I
told the person my social
security number and got the
card She said, it raised ques-
tions about the accuracy of
the election results

If you get your blood piessuie checked you can pick
up a prize in Hetith Service! Also, at the cafeteria locaiton
Health Service staff and Dietetic Technician students will
be providing educabonat phjtnphlets, recipes and low-
salt snacka at the Blood Pressure Education Table.
Thcic't a killer on the \oose But it doe>n't carry a gun
or a knife. This one is a silent killer called high blood pres-
sure.
High blood presmue is called the "silent kiiier"
becaiMe you can have it for years without any symptoms.
Tliat's why it's important to have your blood piessuiv
checked at least every two years.
Blood pressure is the result of two forces. One is creat-
ed by your heart as it pumps blood into the arteries. The
other is created by the arteries as they resist the blood
flow from the heart. Like the nozzle on a water hoze, the
arteries can contract or expand and change the flow of
blood through them If they contract or press too much,
the heart must work harder and blood pressure rises
It's important to control high blood pressure because it
can lead to heart attacks, strokes and kidney damage.
In most cases the cause of high bltxid pressure is
unknown. Tl» tendency toward high blood pressure
seems to run in some families. And certain groups are
more at risk than others.
You can do a kit to prevent and cotttrol mild high
bkwd pressure by taking self-help measures such as:
• Losing weight (if cwerwcight)
• Becoming more physically active
• Moderating alcohol use
• Cuttuig down on salt intake.
A variety of new drugs may be prescribed at the
upcoming bkxid pressure screenmg Together, we can put
a stop to the silent killer.

obscene language if there Ls no i>ther
way to drive the point across For
example, in the Candleb<ix song
"You", the phrase "f — vou" i> used
several times, but in tKat pjrtuuUr
case it has been deemed appaipriate
because of the extremely potent anti-

ai^iociated with

WLLiP program director M.itt

that indecent broadcists can include
personal attacks, graphic descriptions
o* bodily hinctions and body parts
and putting things in something.
"Anytime you tell someone to put
stinwthing IN something (i.e stick it
up your butt) even without graphic
terminology you're asking for trou-
ble "
Often the nature of material broad-
cast dictates whether or not f>et>ple
will advertise on a particular pro-
gram 'We have clients who won't
advertise on

ers and ultimately get

nature of the

Robert Carrison
of Bender,
Browning, l\>lby
& Sanderson
BistHt" also agrees
that inappropriate broadcasts can
scare away advertisers: "It's not gotxi
entt!rtainment Wrong— we have to
have advertisers to function '
Not only do shows which bnwd-
cast questu>nable content run the risk
of losing advertisers, they also run ihf
risk of the station's license being
revoked. The HCC sometimes cracks
down on indecent broadcasts. In
order for the FCC to get involved,
sonu-one has to flag the show^lape
the questionable content and send it
to the KC Then, the FCC evaluates
the material and sends notification to
the radio station/ personality beii\g
cited. It is then up to the station to
decide what action to take with the
broadcaster, and whether or not to
fight the FCC actions
Individual stations handle their
own affairs differently. Depending on
the seriousness of the offense, conse-
quences handed down from stations
range from a slap on the wrist, to an
on-air apology, to fines, even dis-
nussal from the radio station. Als<i,
the FCC reserves the right to revoke
the license of any broadcaster or radio
station for any reason, or assess fines
or cortsequences ot their own deter-
miruhon.
Bisbee explairted, "Shows tfvit run
wild are the ones who get fined and
lose advertisers and ultimately get
flaggi>d by the FCC . think
about what you're doing— if you
think it's funny then fine, if it's
pandering then stay away or you run
the risk of gi'tting in trouble"
However, the ultimate dec-ision on
what IS inappropriate can truly be left
up to the listener Many programs
such as Howard Stem's show and
Mancow MuUer > show are carried in
syndication and doing quite well in
the ratings. Harper employee Ken
Dillard sums it up best: "If someone is
offended by -sometfung said on the
radio, they can always turn it off."

The Chicago Park District
has something to offer for
many people who might not
otherwise get to enjoy the gift
of music. "Special Music By
Special People" started a few
years back when Chicago
musician |oe Yost, who had
just been hired by the park
district to teach music classes,
walked in the door.
"When I walked in to
teach the first i!as>, 1 was ter-
nfiev.1", said 'iKst, who wasn't
cjuite sure how to react to the
peiiple in the class, most of
whom are physically and /or
mt-nlally challenged His job
was to teach them music
Yost lx'f;an workmg with
the musmans, and word
began \o j;ft around. The
classes grew in populanty,
and thev began actually com-
p(»ing s*ings
"Sometimi-s we come up
with new stufi, and si>me-
times we have bad days and
we lust sit around singing
Beatles stuff." explained Yost
Original songs include "The
Donut Song", "Color of
love" and "Rocky".
"Color of Love" had an
interesting story behind it
The class started coming up
with lines, and I would
rhyme them It was a collec-
tive effort on the part of the
enhre class," said Yost.
Once the musicians began
SfMClal Musicians perform

composing stmgs, they began
to put on performances Past
performance credits have
included the "Taste of
Chicago" tistoal, as well as
performing at their own ben-
efit shows
Yosts project recently
received a grant which
enabled the park districi to
build its own studio The CD
was mostly recorded there.
"What's l-or lunch" is the
name of the CD that has been
eagerly awaited by the musi-
cians for years.
"When 1 got the CD's back
fn>m the sUidio, 1 ttxik some
of them in to show the kids
This one guy who has Down
Syndrome and can hardly
speak saw the CD and the
pictures and he somehow
knew thai he was a part of it.
He smiled this big gnn from
ear to ear and hold the CD
close to his heart. The kids ate
all so proud of the CD," said
Yost.
This \ ear's benefit will

Commentary
The Harbinger
April 19, 19%
Our View
An agenda for
Student Senate:
Creditability
The recent Student Senate elections
were a success as far as voter participa-
tion IS concerned. Over 190 voters cast
ttieir ballots for the 1^6-1997 Student
Senate and Student Trustee. It's not
spectacular, but it sure beats last
spring's turnout of 4.? votes
However, the controversv surround-
ing the elections has cast a shadow
over the small gains that have been
made. Are we in for more trouble with
the Student Senate? Will personality
clashes and bickering among senators
remain the norm?
The Harbinger challenges newly
elected Senate President Caroline
Saccomanno to take control over the
Senate and give Harper College stu-
dents the representation that they
deserve. We also challenge each and
every student to hold the Senate
accountable for their actions, or lack
thereof, throughout the year.
Remember that the Senate, and the
Student Trustee, represent the students'
interests to the administration. It is the
students' responsibility to make sure
that they inform the Senate as to what
those interests are. Representation is a
two-way street. The Harbinger
pledges to assist students and the
Senate in their efforts to attain their
goal of achieving an effective form of
student government.
Is the Student Senate ivady to do its
part? Are you, the studtmts. ready to
do yours?

Is this how we're winning the war on crime?
fonO'Srim
The Ed's Vim
Gone are the days when
cnminab paid for their
crime in a way thai could
actually be called punishment
"Hard time" has tjeen replaced
with weight rooms, libraries that
put many local examples to
shame, cable television, health
can? coverage that t>eats what
many iaw-abiding citizens have,
and lawsuits over ttie portions of
fcKx) served Boy. we sure are
winning the war on crime
By now you've pri>bably
heard about the illegal aliens who
got clubi>ed to within an inch of
their lives in Cahfomia after
attempting to evade authorities.
You've probably also heard of the
red carpet treatment we've given
them because of it. Where else
but in America can people speak
out about being so determiived to
fight crime yet be so compassion-
ate to those who cause it?
The "victims" were illegal
aliens that led tfie police on a
high-speed chase, reaching
speeds in excess of 100 miles per
hour, while throwing things at
the police cars in pursuit. Thev
caused several collisions along
their drive. Upon being caught,
the police struck the two passen-
gers outside of the cabin of their
pickup truck several times with
their clubs And now, instead of
rewarding these men for their
actions, we're raking them over
the coaLs as if they are the bad
guys!
A lot of civil rights activists
clamor about how their rights
were violated Someone should
remind these ptMple that the
"victims" an? not United States
citizens, so they are not covered
by the same rights that protect
us If my vehicle and /or perscin

tive message. But

was involved in one of the acci-
dents they caused. 1 assure you
that the wrath 1 would bring
upon them would make a club-
bing seem petty.
Thousands of foreigners
immigrate into the Uruted States
each year (the right way) and go
on to tiecome responsible,
respectful citizens. But 1 just can't
see a bunch of trouble makers
who think they're better than
those who go through tfie proper
channels for citizenship becom-
mg pillars of our society. What I
do see is our country's over-
stressed welfare system and other
precious resources getting taxed
by people who aren't entitled to
them They create trouble for us
and give their country a bad
name.
This incident could have sent
a very positive message. It could
have let the world know ttiat we
are serious at>out slopping the
flow of illegal aliens pouring
through our tiorders. It would
have shown everyone what hap-
pens when you break the law in
America. But no, we had to show
unjust pity.
Of course, this is just one
example of the slime of this coun-
try (and continent) getting away
with every crime under the sky
tiecause we are so easy on crimi-
nals. If you want another exam-
pW, look to the standoff in
Montana. Or the Menendez
brothers' trial /fiasco.
1 find it strangely amusing
how so many people can com-
plain about crime and yet be so
easy on the criminals that are
caught. Until we start getting
tough on the slime we manage to
catch, it's only going to get
worse.
To the officers involved in the
chase, I commend you for your
actions while in the line of duty.
It's officers like you that keep our
country safe. To all illegal aliens
or anylx)dy thinking of liecomiixg
one, enter my t>eloved country
the right way or stay out

The "Gilded Age" claims Rostenkowski
ITW. FMiIrr
1n>in the tune he entered congrKW aver 6uTty-
\ five years tffo, until his recent indktment for
misusing official funds and stealing money
Ifroan the Hotue Poai Office, Dan Roslenlwwski
■had been conndavd a hero by many in his. the
Ififth'districtof Oiicago A man to look up to,
I want to shake hands with; point out to your chil-
Idien and hope thev grow up to be like.
He was the man, and as chairman of the House
I Ways and Means Committee, he enjoyed power
I and prt^lige equakKJ to, if m>l surpassed by. at
I tunes, the President of the Unitcsi Staliis.
Now he is just another corrupted potitidan; a
I statistic; a renmant of the once famous Qlded
I Age.
A man who could have asked for, and
obtained, anything he wanted by way of legal pto-
I cession, in his insipidly jeiune betvavior detracted
I from his responsibilities (aruj ivquirpments), <inly
to find lumself on the front steps of a federal cour-
thouse, facmg a multitvide of reporters wtule a
cold rain (symbolK-ally) poured down on him, so
he could explain to his once loyal supporters that
even though he made some irremissible, monu-
mental mistakes, he was merely being "smgled
out" for the purpose by which "to be held up by
law enforcement as an example" ot what happens
to those who do wrong.
The most provocative, and telling, manifesta-
tion provided from the courtroom where he had
been castigated (and whittled down to size) by the
judge was his postulation of the rules and regula-
tions that he took an oath to uphold, becau.se as he
•aw it, stealing, defrauding, and ghost payrolling
were merely "A practice that was oiKe common
in congress*.
Not only has he admitted to corruption being
rampant in congress, but he is using it as an
excuse to abate fus demoralized judgements.
In effect, h*- is saying that because it (corrup-
tion) is "there", why should he be to blame tf he
uses is; especially when everyone else around him
is doing the same.
It is as If the Gilded Age had never wfiotly
been vanquished, but instead thnved and became
eiKulturated. indoctrinated, and celebrated in our
•ociety and within all walks of politics, from the
local tevel to the federal level so much so that it
was unnecessary for corruption to travel incogni-
to. And why should it; for if the voters are t¥)t apt
to put a stop to it, why should the politicians.
Perhaps it's a stn>ke of irony that Dan
Rostenkowski should be the one who is headed of
to jail aivl not the real criminal which is us; we
gave politicians free access to corruption and
blindly looked the other way when we knew it
was occurring.
And although he may never enter f>olitics
again lor the remainder of his life, Rostenkowski
still can hold up high his head and look to the
bright, sun-filled future and remind himself that
not all is obsolescent; because two years from now
while we, the honest, law-abiding citizens sweat
and labor 80 hours a week at two separate jobs in
the hope we can put food on the table and pay oui
bills, Dan Rostenkowski (who will have already
paid his "debt" to society) will be living off his
S1(X),000 a year pension.
Is it a wonder that people turn to politics when
all else fails. It us the one true institution where
even if you don't get away with the crime you still
are amply rewarded
The truth is out there-
you just need to find it

In a political «m of coBipUining
aiKl whining about candidates,
media and partisanship, it's ironic
'hat the general public conhnues to
i-ly on sound biles and polls to make
:noat of its decisiont.
How else to explain 72 perewit of

^ in either only fair or poor condi-

ble-digit lead when

What otfHT wjv
could 15 percent of
the voting publh; be
duped into thinking;
Ross Perot is still i
viable candidate for
the presidency?
The television,
that great messenger of information,
has become our main source for infor-
mation on ptilitKs and candidates.
Voters now rely on the remote control
to help them decide w hn gets in
which office.
SiMne unseen pixel -like continental
divide stole library cards iiiid mjj;a-
zines from the majontv ai AmerKans'
lives, replacing them with lik--»ized.
Holl^-wood produced mini-epics,
kiK>wn to the public as political spots,
engineered to win Academy awards.
If the trend continues, 1 look for-
If s kinda ironic that
the most poignant
line describing the
search for answers
conies from a televi-
sion shot
ward to seeing (insert Seinfeld cast
member here) promoting his or her
candidate.
Jerry Seinfeld: "Hi, I'm Jerry
ScinMd and I'm here to ask you to
vote for (insert candidate rume here \
Not thjl there's anything wrong with
that"
That would tit perfectly during an
episode of ER m which the doctors
try to revive the flagging candidate's
career.
A great tie-in. And it jjujrjntit's to
generate money for the candidate and
more useless sound-bite information
for the general elec-
torate.

I'll have to cut this short a- it s
hme to go gather more informafRin
on the candidates How else am I sup-
posed to know that President Clinton
kept his promise and. under his
administration, almost eight miUion
jobs, dout^le what he promised were
created?
It's kinda ironic that the most
poignant line describing the search
for answers comes from a television
show The truth is out there.
I applaud the Gay, Ix-sbian,
Bisexual (CLB) group for excluding
a heterosexual Harbinger reporter
from tfieir meeting (April .S issue)
i would support them in excludmg
any reporter showing up unan-
nounced to cover a meeting w ith-
out prior group consent. By nature,
certain groups require the option of
anonymity for participants
For a reporter to show up at the
GLB meeting and expect co>.>pera-
tion is naive. Affectional prefer-
ence is the source of discrimination
in many arenas, including in hous-
ing, hiring and general ta-atment
Until this changes, gay, lesbian and
bisexual students deserve a safe
haven for airing their concerns
without the threat of being involun-
tarily "outed "
Perhaps if Rose Marie Hylton
approached the GLB group differ-
ently, she could attend and report
on their meeting. If no one attend-
ing wanted his or her name in
print, would the article still be writ-
ten? If, in addition, Hylton were
not allowed to describe these stu-
dents with any specific identifying
details, such .is age, phvsic.il
description or an?a of study, would
the meeting still be covered'' If the
attendees requested right of refusal
or editing nghts on the final piece
to assure th
e pnvacy of members, would the
Harbinger editorial staff make
changes or offer to kill the story?
I would like to see coverage of
GLB group meetings if the
Harbinger staff can meet require-
ments imposed by the group. I ask
that the GLB group meet this chal-
lenge and create terms under which
the Harbinger can cover their meet-
mg. Perhaps some students on
campus need to hear about this
group and to know it is a safe
haven. Perhaps certain students
will attend meetings and say they
are heterosexual because they are
afraid to say the words, "I think
I'm gay." out loud
Further, 1 would urge fiarper
Student Activities to support this
group financially if student interest
is at an appropriate level. A
Student Activities spokesperson
confirmed that Harper supports
activities which cater to specific
ethnic or raaal groups. "There is an
Alcoholics Anonymous group
sponsored by Health Services
which has closed meetings.
Although most Harper groups are
open, not all students would be
comfortable or intercshng in
atteiviing. In addition to GLB,
future groups
might form which exclude certain
students, such as a support group
for women who have been sexually
assaulted. Student Activities clari-
fied that since Harper activities ane
funded through student fees rather
th.in the government, open meet-
ings are not k'gally required. And
tfiis is fine with me.
Down the line, if GLB is success-
ful in becoming an ongoing student
activity, 1 would urge them to do
educatioiul outreach into the het-
erosexual community. This might
increase awareness of the issues
homo- and bi- sexuals face, especial
ly on<ampus, and create a more
open atmosphere After all, some
of my best friends live in closets,
and a closet is a suffocating place to
live.

SiKMTSEnTOR
The Harper College L>ivis)on of
Wrliness and Human IVrtomiance
has annuunced that thi" swimming
and diving pn)grams will b«' can-
celled after this season.
)erry Cnilham. the Dean of the
Division ot Welbess and Human per-
formance, Mid that a lack of interet.!
is one of the reasons behind the can-
ceUation of the program
"The numbers have gone down
coaiistently year after year Plus, we
don't have any competition, said
Gotham.
Harper was one of only three
schools m northern Diinois to field a
team for lf»e 19% seaMm. The otfwr
two schooLi were the CtiUege of
DuPage and Tnton.
Coaches Gordon Aukerman and
Tom Strzewski were praised tor their
"excellent coaching." Strzewski
(<nned the paigram just this year
Ckitham said, "Gordon had some
excellent team-i in the past."
The members of the 1 W5 women's
swimming team were named as the
Athletes of the Year by The lUrhn,;n
The women's team went undefeat-
ed from 1'W2-1W.S m regular seawn
meets
They also earned a regional cham-
pionship and a fourth place finish at
nationals.
The team also included 11 All-
Americans and two national champi-
ons
Susan Day was ihe shining star for
the 1996 women's team. Day walked
away from nationals a three-tinne All-
Amencan in the -KKI individual med-
ley, the S(» and the \bS().
Day qualified for the maximum
number of events at nationals (.1) She
finished third m the 1650.
It w .IS the highest placement of an
Illinois swimmer, male or female, at
the national champioaships
Day also broke her nvvn vIkwI
records m the IhSO and 40I-) individual
medleys
Strzewski joined the coaching statt
tor the 19% seast>n following a suc-
cessful career at the high schi>ol le\'el
Strzewski spent three years as a
diving coach at Hinsdale South high
school wliere he placed all but one
seiuor diver at an NCAA Division I
school.
"Diving is a very relaxing sport,"
said Strzewski in an interview priorj
to the start of the 19% season.
Strzewski also described the team|
as hard working while compliment-
ing the quality of Harper's program
Harper's atfjetic program will not I
be short a sport for the l'Wv-97 acad-
emic year
Harper will be adding a women si
SI veer team in the fall. The Wellness I
[pulsion is currently searching for a[
coach tor the team.
Mens basketball, football and I
Softball are also looking for new I
coaches tor next season The tixitball I
team is searching for two new assis-
tant coaches
Harper is hoping to combine one I
of the head coiiclung positions with I
that of a full-hme lastructor in the |
Physical Educahon department.

Under preasune from a possible
ia^achment by the Harper College
Student Senate, President Paul Wyer
fesigned effective April 30. Treasurer
Ryan McGraw said an impeachment
hranng was to be held on Ute same day.
Allegations by senate officials that
Wyer didn't attend board meetit>gs. prop-
erly maintain office hours, or follow up
on his nnail, are all grounds for impeach-
ment as outlined by the senate by-lines.
Wyer declined to comment on his res-
ignation or the alki^tions made by the
"He (Wyer) just lost interest" Mc Graw
said. "It's unfortunate we had to go this
far.'
Pf«sident-elect Caroline Saccomanno
will assuiTw the duties of the presidency
effective April K, due to Wyer's resigna-
tion.
McCraw said the setule was unaware
that Wyer was neglecting his respotwibil-
ities until Student Activities officials
asked them to begin checking Wyer's
mail. That's the icaaon it took us so long
lo start Ihe impeadunent process," he
said.
Wyer's letiignatian isn't the first set
hack Miifered by the Senate this year. In
October, former Senate President.
Stephan Paulson and former Vice-
President, Victor Morales both resigned
from their posts. "None of us realued
what tieing on the senate was all about,"
McCraw said. "But now we're ready to
get down to businesB.'

Tournament of
Champions
Julie Thompson
NtWS EDITOR
For the second straight
year. Harper s Athletic
Center was transformed into
a bowling arena for The
Brunswick Tournament of
Champions on April 27
Crowd favorite, fifth
seeded Dave D'Entremont,
captured the title defeating
tirst scvded Dave Arnold in
front o( a crowd of 4,140 peo-
ple.
To accommodate the
event, which was televised
live on ABC. Brunswick had
to construct four specially
designed lanes complete
with ball retun>s and pin set-
ters.
The arena setting proved
to be beneficial for
D'Entremont who said, "1
love bowling in aretu's...the
crowd really pumps you up."
Among the spectators
watching the tournament
was the First Lady of the
State of Illinois, Brenda
Edgar. "Bnmswick has been
very generous by giving a
large donation to children
who are in protective care,"
she said. "It's very exciting to
be here (at Harper). I love
it!"
Also attending the tour-
nament was Chicago Bulls'
center. Bill Wermington who
took time out of the NBA
playoff schedule. He said, "I
heard the tournament was at
Harper so I stopped by. I
enjoy watching good ath-
letes."
After D'Entremont's
tournament win, Edgar,
Wennington, PBA officials,
bowlers and other VIP's
gathered in the building A
cafeteria.
The dining area was
turned into a VIP lounge,
serving a much different fare
than usual including: a wide
variety of hordourves, crab
claws, shrimp, and cham-
pagne punch
College President, Paul
N. Thompson said, the team
work of tfie staff was excel-
lent in preparing for such a
big event.
"It's just amazing how
Brunswick got it all together
in less than three days," he
said.

Blue Bow promotes child abuse prevention
KiMbwIy Zank
HfWBMGER CORRESraCCNT
Think! Wash negahve feel-
ings away as you scream in
the shower. Shout, "I'm
30O00O angry." Pound on a
mattress. These are just some
of the things one can do
instead of hitting Of scream-
ing, according to Parents
Anonymous, a child abu.s«^
I prevention program
Today's children are grow-
ing up in an environment that
IS overwhelmed with vio-
lence; one in which parents
and siblings resort to physical
or verbal abuse, to express
their emotions. In fact, every
13 seconds a child IS abused or
neglected and each day at
least three childrt-n die from
such brutality, »jys Parents
I Arwnymous.
To address this national cri-
I sis. Parents Anonymous.
along with the American
AsscKuilion for Women of
Commuruty Colleges
(AAWCC) is .sponsoring The
Blue Bow Campaign. Sue A.
Walton, foundmg member of
Parents Anonymous, and
Jolyn DePriest, program spt--
cialist of the Women's
Program, are the organizers
behind the campaign at
Harper.
Each Monday dunng the
month of April, from 12 p m
to 1 p m , tables were set up
around campus distributing
blue bows and fliers that give
information about cfuld abuse
prevention. The Student
Activities office also has male-
rials available to tfuwe inter-
ested in the cause.
The Blue Bow Campaign
originated in I'W, by a graiuJ-
mother in Norfolk, Virginia,
whose grandson died from
abuse. She wore a blue bow
symboluing the hidden bruis-
es and scars that abused chil-
dren must carry.
Harper began sponsoring
this national campaign last
year, but "this is the first year
Harper has really got
invol\e>.i," DePriest said.
Besides wearing blue
bows, DePriest suggests that
students who want to pro-
mote child abuse prevention
should get fliers to distribute
to differvnt communities and
learn ways to protect children
Many businesses, craft stores
and floral shops may even
donate ribt>on for free or at a
minimal charge if you tell
them about the cause.
"I think children are our
most important commoditv,'
said DePriest. "The way we
treat our children is of utmost
importance. C>f all the con-
cerns you have ab(mt the
fuhire of our country, th.it one
should be paramount "

Conflicts arise at radio station Ninomiya speaks at A.P.A.M. conference
Ewiy gnat radio Italian has ils
ihaiv of grievances. WLUP had Li2
Wilde WCKG hati Howard Stem
Now WHCM has some of its own.
The music rocks on, but some turbu-
lence exist! between WHCM's man-
agement board, led by Station
Manager Ron Gaba, and station advi-
sor Tom Schnecke.
Some of the problems that the sta-
tion's management have reported art-
stow repair turnarounds, no .wund-
pnx>fir\g installed in the studio, and
that Schnecke does not return phone
Perhaps their greatest complaint is
the lack of communication
According to the staff, Schnecke doe»
not return all of hi.s pages. To this,
Schnecke replies, "There are times
when I'm in the middle of produchon
work at my main job and it will take
me half an hour to call back" He
iiMists that he returns ail ol his pages.
Another pitiblem. acconJing to the
stahon's management, is Schnecke's
attendaiKe record. "He s known .is
'the ghost' an>und hi-nv >.>id Jimm
Polli, the station Musn Director
Schnecke says that he tnes to do
repairs over the weekend when the
downtime won't atfect the stud»>nls
'There's nothing in my contract that
says I have to come m on weekends"
Repair work to station equipment
and studio renovjtum work has been
progressing slower than the members
of the station would like Many pieces
of et^uipment, including a Panasonic
contact disc player, have btvn out of
commission while undergoing repair.
"The Panasoruc player has been sent
for repair four tunes" said Schnecke
Schneke added that most of the need-
ed repairs are due to student-inflicted
damage, something Jeanne Pankanin,
ttte director of Student Activities and
the person Schnecke directly reports
to, agrees witti. It irritates her that so
much money has to be spent on
repairs.
Schnecke says "Ron never formal-
ly afipniached me with a complauit"
He added that he has not had any
conflicts with station managers in the
past Pankanin adds. "I'm happy
with what Tom has done "
Schnecke has done things for the
station that WHCM management rec-
ognizes and IS thankful for, including
arranging tor the purchase of a state-
of-the-art instant replay and compact
disc player
Schnecke said, "There was a six
month wailing list for the instant
leplay and 1 was able to arrange (or
us to be one of the first to get one 1
do everything 1 can to expedite things
for the college "
An alternative that WHCM man-
agement has come up with is alkxat-
ing enough budget money for a full-
time advisor Ciaba said, "We have
somebody in mind and she hates
what is going on "
"I'll address everything Gaba
want% to talk about," says Schnecke.
"Vvv tx-en a very loyal employcv and
a tnend of the college" Gaba says
that Schnecke has done the station
gcKH.1 but that Ins presence is urgently
needed
Perhaps Polli sums it up best by
calling It. "FrustratKm Thai sums up
the entire semester."

When Kent Ninomiya was grow-

knew that he wanted to be a journal-
ist because he spent two hours a day
watching the news.
Ninomiya is now an on<amera
reporter for WIS-TV in Chicago who
specializes in live reports. His career
has taken him from CNN's office in
Wa.shington, DC and back to
California before leading hmi to the
Windy City.
Five generations ago. Ninomiyas
family came to the United States
from japan, but Ninomiya insists
that, I am an .American. In fact, I've
never even been to Japan." he admit-
ted.
It was Ninomiya 's ancestry that
brought him to Harper College on
April 23 as the college kicked oft
Asian Pacific American Month. He
was invited to speak about what it's
like to be an Asian in the media.
Ninomiya admitted that he was
uncomfortable talking about what
it's hke being Asian because consid-
ers himself an American — period.
Instead of viewmg the opportunity to
speak as a burden, he saw it as an
opportunity
He informed the audience of
Harper students and staff about
other famous A.sian- Americans such
as Olympic gold-medalist Kristi
Yamoguchi, architect Im Pel and the
lead guitarist tor the Smashing

4 The somber gong lingered
through the air m building A, as
shirts were suspended in air
across a clottiesline that visually dis-
played how violence affects women.
The gong as well as whistles and
bells were audible reminders of the
level of violence against women hap-
pening in our country an in our own
communities.
The Clothesline Project was
brought to Harper by the Northwest
Action Against Rape, a sexual as.sault
crisis intervention center
Throughout the day, approximately
600 people came to see the
Clothesliiw.
Part of the goal of the Clothesline
Project is to help with the healing
process for people who have lost a
loved one or are survivors of vio-
lence.

2 At the Btxird of Trustees meeting
on February 22, 1996 they
approved unanimously to raise
lab ti-es, institute a registration fee
and abolish the parking fee and the
transcript fee

land to Illinois Department of
Transportation, for future use in

IDOT will n- configure the Harper

Marcia Wilke: Comedian or poet?
Sonzalu
COPV EDITOR
To can her a cofiMNliait would tx; limitiiig.
To call her a poet would tie accuivie, but
unfair
Martria Wilke is both, .and
neither. She is as one perceives
her, a performer who (ells her
stories to those who will listen.
Add a little humor and it is
Marcia Wilkc's Seven
Vignettes, M>ino tragic, and
some just plain humorous. She
look the stage with a modest
brown backdrop, a stool, a
couch, and a chair, l-ier perfor-
marKe began with the ritual Wilke takes
lighting of a candle and a joke approach to
about the candle and how it
was supposed lo be for good luck even
though she burnt her hand lighting it
For an hour and a half, !ihe made one
laugh and regret She also showed a glimpse
into our lives. Wilke had a free flowing .<<ense
of humor that smmithly worked itself mto her
stones. She also had a vocabulary that was
short of being pure poetry. Her descriptions
drew one mto her life.
Each act dealt with different specific
aspects of her life, although they were not
exactly autobiographical accounts. Some of
Wtlke's acts were bitter and tinged with
regret. She talked about loneliness and how
it feels to be lost. At these points in the pwr-
(brmance, it cast a darker mocxJ on the audi-
ence and it was discomforting lo hear about.
However, she pulled out and managed to tell
very enlightening and hmny stories
also.
Her last story was
about her father who
worked in an office job and
.It night but he loved to prac-
tice playing jazz cm his trum-
pet As it turned out, he was
a bitter man who was not
happy with his life. His real
dream would have bi-en lo
play jazz for a living, but he
chose security over his
dreams.
Marcia Wilke chose to
be happy rather than to be
bed down to a nine to five job. She is doing
what she wants. Sie said, "I have a double
career because I love to write and also to per-
form." Wilke also said that when she writes,
"Fifty percent comes from my life, tfie rest is
invented or exaggerated."
Her style of writing is very creative.
Whatever she begins by saying as her open-
ing statement, comes out in the end and con-
nects the entire story.
Anyone who will see her perform in the I
future should be aware that one has to go in
with an open mind and uncover what she is I
all about.

Rose & McDermott put on killer show
LaHra QaiTiMii
Ms & Entenanmmt Edilix
Al Rose and Michael Mti>nnott ptT-
formed hen? at Harper on Wednt»s<lay. April
17 in the Building J Theater. McDermntt
came in fresh off a performance on "Late
Ni^t with Conan O'Brien", while Rose
comes off a tour of Chicago area coffeehous-
es.
Rose opemxl the >how with a ^hort set.
Much of the tinw a full array of musicians
accompanies Rose, but only backgrounii
smger Ijura Blye performed with him this
show. They launched through several stings
from his CD "Information Overload". Rose
has a new CD coming out somehme over the
next few montlrs, and there also seemed to be
some music that may be from the new CD.
Rose's tongue-in<heek lyrics and bolh
musicians' dynamic yet easygoing perfor-
maiKe styles delighted the crowd through-
out their set. The only complaint; their half
hour set was far too short to showcase their
full talent. Nonetheless, the acoustic humor
was a perfect offset to MelXTmotfs sets.
Mcl>mnott took the stage shortly after
Rose fiiushed. McDermott has been active in
the Chicago music scene for some time now,
and recently put out a new self-titled album
on EMI.
Mclltermott has a very dark stage pres-
eiKe. His lyrics are well-written if one really
listens as well as they hear Mcl>ermotfs
songs can be deep, but they are full of raw
emotion. Many of them have an almost -.pir-
itual quality It's highly unusual to fimi any
kind ot deep meaning in much ot today s
minimalisl s<ing writing, but McDermott's
PHOTO I SURA GARfilSON
Michael McDermott performs at
Harper with his band on April 17
songs are a definite exception to that rule.
His lyrics make it sound as if thea^ is still
hope for the human race
McDermott not onU --ings songs that
make people think, but songs that are melod-
ically superior to the heavy grunge music of
today. "Bells", one of the strongest songs on
the CD, was even stronger performed hve.
McDermott not only sings in his live perfor-
mance, but he also plays the harmonica and
the guitar. He played with a horde of talent-
ed musicians for the show, though he per-
formed almost all of his own instruments on
his latest CD
Overall, McDermott's live performance
was sublime. Even after three encores, the
audience begged for more.
Both artists were kind enough to interact
with fans after the show, signing autographs
and posing for photographs. For many, this
was a special treat, since many performing
artists don't interact with fans at all if they
can help it. While the show was incredible,
the friendliness ot both performers toward
thoir fans made for the perfect ending to a
perfect night.

Our VieM
That's the news,
folks...
Warmer weather, the looming
terror of final exams, baseball
season starting— all the signs of
summer
While most of us will stay at
least five miles away from the
campus at all times this summer,
there will be news and events all
around us. the Olympic Games,
the NBA Finals (do 1 really need
to say who's going to walk away
with it this year?), and of course,
the Presidential election in
November
With the change in seasons
comes changes in the Harbinger's
staff After serving my one year
sentence — ahem, term— as the
Editor-in-Chief, I am officially
stepping down as of this issue
Mr. Dave Pump will be assuming
the position this fall, with Susan
Rademacher filling his current
shoes as Managing Editor. The
Orientation Issue will be on
stands in time for the start of the
fall semester.
And now for the usual "feel
good" stuff: Don't drink and
drive, wear a condom, remember
your please's and thank you's,
don't cut anyone off in traffic,
party responsibly, blah, blah,
blah
Jon O'Brien
Good luck with your finals!

VVtuI Lsn't new. or wKal isn I commonplace is

demonstrate axuirift their employers
Bui not so with Mitsubishi Motors, which shut
down its plant in Normal s«) that it couid give the
oppcirtunity oi a litf time to their tellow empki)'«es.
And what an opportunity it was too, as if the heads of
Mitsubishi stood tiefofv their workers and spoke, say-
"It is sad indeed to see tile day arrive when people
we have trusted greatly with all our hearts (they sob a
little) turn so violently against us, accuse us of such

occur, and to those who would like to remain ignorant
lyfuimt did xcur, we, the heads of MitsubiOii, would
like to celebrate your faith in us by giving you a full
one day holiday with pay (Cheers and huzzahs per-
nwate and txha off the concrete walls)
'Now," he holds up his hands to stop the annoy-
ing conversation and votes, to himself, to dock a day's
pay as purashment tor disnegarding the sign of no
talhng MliM<nl m this roam that he will put up next
week "There is a condition for this holiday Trifle
stipulation tttough, nothing out of the ordinary; notli-
ing ttiat hasn't been dime tietore We merely want
each and every one of you to go to Chicago and
protest on our behalf at the offices of the EEOC Why,
we will even graciously supply the transportation for
you (People begin to quiet: heads sense hostility to
the idea may arise)
With force and dictatorial vindictiverwss, "Because
if you don't -.idf with us we'll make you work. And
don t think it 11 be easy You'll be doin^ the work of
those who generously iuhmillfd themst-Kes to the

takes you longer than your regular work day
'.■Xnd to keep you on the up and up, for those who
ma\ lake a holiday and not show up to protest at our
beckoning, we will take down your names and vital
information
"Wfe will do to you what we are already doing to
those women who dared speak out and humiliate us
with sexual harassment charges.
"Let us make it very clear to all of you. Wtiat hap-
pened, that IS what may have occurred in this facility
will remain here.
"Because if the public took serious this allegation,
and so much as sided with llwse (raifomus women,
(who weren't even that impressive, he states to him-
self) by refusing to buy our automobiles - we will fire
as many of you as we think necessary. And as we
have afonesaid, your names will be taken down for
the protest; those not in attendance will be the first to
go
"We will of course tell the media we are downsiz-
ing; all ot Corporate America is doing that now-«-
days anyway " (To himself he «flys. Me fWnfc me sees a
million dollar a year raise in this)
And so concludeth the speech. It is a fine speech
too. No other dictator living or deceased could have
rambled on any better and spread himself with
autfiority
Mitsubishi will undoubtedly go doum in history
as being the epitome of big business and thus t>e well
received within the realm of Corporate America.
