Donald Kojich, the first of four candidates for the director of alumni services, said he believes alumni and students are the best ambassadors for the uni- versity. “If students have a positive experience here that helps to cultivate other students,” Kojich said. Kojich said he has new ideas for the position, including tar- geting alumni by conducting focus groups and surveying what programs would appeal to them.

Editorial Rick Ploeinski, who is in charge of poll opera- tions, said “as a general rule we never get more than 12 to 15 percent of the student body to vote and when we got 18 percent (Wednesday) we were delighted.” Even though the voter turnout has slightly increased over the past years, it is still not nearly enough. In 1995 elections, 1,836 students voted and offi- cials declared the turnout disappointing. The year before, more than 2,000 students voted, making it the highest turnout in history. However, in 1992 election officials were “really impressed” with the 1,170 voter turnout. It seems the voter turnout consistently remains under 20 percent of the student population and offi- cials are still pleased some years and disappointed the next. However, no one should be pleased if only a fraction of the student body is voting. Until more than 50 percent of the student body votes in an election, no one should be impressed.

In the last year, several prominent court cases have taught us that justice is not always determined on the basis of evidence. Many times, outcomes are based not on who supplied the most convincing evidence, but on whose image was more believable. That is the tainted mantra of “Primal Fear” (Paramount, Rated R), the new courthouse thriller with Richard Gere. As Martin Vail, a media-savvy defense attorney who cares more about his image than actually ascertaining the truth in his Gigantic Gold Sale cases, Gere takes on a case which is destined to find the media This Fri. & Sat. at spotlight. Towne Square Jewelers The film centers around a Catholic cleric’s murder, supposed- Don’t miss it! ly committed by one of the poor youths he would accept into This is Big, Really Big the parish. The defendant, Aaron Stampler (played by newcom- Located next to Subway er Edward Norton), professes his innocence to Vail, who admits to the young suspect he doesn’t care – confessing he took the case to bolster his already prominent Chicago law practice. Vail’s smug composure is fueled even more when he hears the pro- secuting attor- ney will be his ex-lover, Janet Venable (Laura Linney of last year’s SANDWICH SHOP forgettable 405 Lincoln Ave. “Congo”). It isn’t long before Vail’s feelings about the case sour, as he finds a PLACE sexual elem- ent to the rev- ered cleric’s case. Vail quickly be- lieves he snat- ched up the case too fever- ishly, as he took it after watching a few sound bytes on the evening news. Coinciding with this revelation is the fact Vail actually begins to believe in Stampler’s innocence, adding an emotional powder keg he would rather not incorporate in his cases. Vail enters the case in unfamiliar territory – he actually cares about his client. We are led to believe that, through the years, Vail has acquired the reputation of representing the sleazoids of Chicago, taking cases which will feed his media-hungry appetite. 345-2466 It is at this point the picture loses its edge, however, as you can sense director Gregory Hoblit (whose previous work has been on the canvas of television) is slowly losing his grip on the tense feel of the film. Gere is clearly more entertaining early in “Primal Fear,” cap- turing the same homespun arrogance he delivered in 1989’s “Internal Affairs,” when he played a crooked cop. He does an excellent job of vacillating between the good lawyer and bad lawyer, as the audience is never quite sure where to categorize this pseudo-egoist. Hoblit, whose resume includes stints as executive producer MONEY’S LOW and director on such television gems as “NYPD Blue” and “Hill AND YOU WANT TO University Board Comedy Street Blues,” brings with him a cast laden with TV talent, including Andre Braugher (“Homicide: Life on the Street”) as an Committee Presents: investigator for Vail’s practice and John Mahoney (the father on GO OUT? “Frasier”) as an agitated state’s attorney. YOUR Unfortunately, Hoblit is unable to bring meaningful roles to these actors, and because of that, they become nothing more LANDLORD’S than faceless background characters.

Playing the lead role means more than a few heavy chords and an occasional wimpy solo. Morello uses his guitar as an innovative tool, giving birth to an arsenal of sound that can be called nothing short of amazing. You will find absolutely no computers, keyboards or samples here. Morello and company are able to create every sound heard on their albums with use of varied application and technique , along with a fortress of effect pedals.
