FOGHORVolume 90, Issue 19 University of San Francisco AprilN 13, 1994 Pacific Rim receives HUD grant

James Tedford News Editor A groundbreaking ceremony last Tuesday officially commenced work on converting the decrepit Wabe Theatre on the Lone Mountain Campus into a new multipurpose, fully- electronic conference facility. This task is merely the focal point of more extensive renovations, such as upgrading classroom electrical circuitry and bringing classroom access to conform with the Americans with Disabilities Act (ADA). Making these alterations possible was a $1.5 million grant from the U.S. Department of Housing and Urban Development, steered though the bureaucratic channels by Congresswoman Nancy Pelosi-D of California's 5th Congressional District. Up to $100,000 in additional funds will be provided by the University for in-house computers and equipment for the conference center. The main part ofthe project is the restoration ofthe Wabe Theatre, which has been predominately used for storage since the acquisition of Lone Mountain in 1976. Glenn Loomis, Director of Plant Services, said that the space now occupied by the theatre will be converted into a multipurpose conference center for the San Francisco Center for Pacific Rim Studies, which the entire University community will be able to use. The Oakland-based Brocchini Architects will oversee theconstruction, while Nibbi Brothers Construction Fr. Schlegel, Congresswoman Pelosi, and Lou Girardo on hand at the groundbreaking ceremony of San Francisco has been selected as general contractor. Loomis' timetable slates the completion ofthe project for late Center for its presentations. Not only is it inconvenient and communications link berween the conference center and fall of this year. not within close proximity to the Lone Mountain-based Telecommunications Services.

You choose the muck-filled answer. Sausage is comprised of Les Claypool and his early playmates (guitarist Todd Huth and drummer Jay Lane). Lane freelances in the Bay Area coffee house jammers, The Charlie Hunter Trio, and hip-hop jazz fusion, Alphabet Soup. The old friends reunited for Claypool's personal label— Prawn Song. There is a grounded quality to this group's musical journey. Lane gives a jazzier backbone to the schizophrenic thuds of Claypool. One can even hear the classic rock influence. Vocals (courtesy of Todd Huth) ring with a white trash twang. Older Primus fans, who are unable to grasp some ofthe trio's material, should have an affection for Sausage. If there was ever a sequel to "Deliverance," Sausage should be the first to do the soundtrack.

BY DAHIIA MELENDREZ o

he ASUSF Senate settled down with the long task of deciding what amendments, (regarding representation ol campus groups) to include in the proposed ASUSF Constitution. You might remember that the proposed Constitution went on the ballot in the early Fall but didn't pass—due to low voter turnout. The proposed Constitution stipulated that there be two o- representatives from each of the schools—Business, Arts and Sciences, and Nursing, one President from each of the class—Freshman, Sophomore, Junior and Senior, one representative from the on-campus community, one representative from the off-campus community, one representative from the international student community, and one representative from the ethnic minority student community. There was some disagreement on the representational numbers and therefore Senate decided to open the issue back up for discussion. Two amendments were then placed before Senate. The first, presented by FACES President Marci Takumi, Freshman Class President Becky Wright, and Nursing School Representative Chris Bustos increased the international student community representa­ o tive from one to two, increased the ethnic minority student community representative from one to two, and added one representative to both the on-campus community and off-campus community with the stipulation that one representative of the on-campus community I- be of Freshman standing. In this proposal, the other on-campus representative position could be open to only Sophomores, Junior, and Seniors. The representatives from the schools and classes would remain the same as in the proposed Constitution. The second proposal was submitted by ASUSF President Bill Jordan. In his proposed amendment to the proposed ASUSF Constitution, Jordan stipulated that there be an increase in on-campus representation from one to two, and an increase in freshman r- representation from one to two. All other Senate positions would remain the same. Jordan's reasoning for the changes was that traditionally, the on-campus population and freshman class have been traditionally under-represented. Z The ASUSF Senate passed the first amendment and later Jordan vetoed the amendment. The current ASUSF Constitution states there is a required 2/3 vote in order to override a Presidential Veto. Individual Senators spoke to override the veto, or to allow UJ it to stand. Business School Representative Aileen Ganding stated the amendment reflected equal representation across the board and that there was no valid harm to a change. There was discussion on whether all Senate seats would be filled in a general election. Junior Class President Eileen Rivera believed there was interest in the positions and that they could be filled due to the progressive year of the Senate. Business School Representative Chris Barbazette was concerned that adding more people could UJ possibly mean students running for Senate positions could run uncontested and spoke in support of the veto. Residence Hall _l Association Representative Dahlia Melendrez spoke on support of the veto and believed the document was not the best Senate could put forth and needed to be sent to Constitutional Review. Q_ A vote ensued and 7 Senators voted to override the Presidential veto. The attempted override failed because the required 2/3 vote in favor of override was not attained. Therefore, a proposed Constitution will not appear before the student body this a. semester. Next year's Senate will continue the effort to put the best document possible before the students for a vote.

Attention USF Faculty Evaluations are ready! o BY EILEEN RIVERA

You may remember filling out forms at the end of the fall semester evaluating a particular teacher. Well, for the first time in eight years the results of these "surveys" will be available to the general campus population. As of Wednesday, April 13 students, administrators, t/3 faculty, basically everyone can pick up these faculty evaluations. These can be picked up from the ASUSF office, Depot and AS Express. Five hundred copies have been printed and they will

be free of charge. COMPETITION I- The actual courses surveyed are those clas­ sified under the new GEC, with some overlap from a the former GEC. Juniors and sophomores may find this unhelpful, but keep in mind they evaluate those UJ who may instruct another class of particular interest.

> Meaning that these evaluations are important to all. Many thanks go to those in Academic Com­ a puting. They tabulated all hand written responses and help provide scantron sheets for the upcoming fall semester. Next school year these evaluations will be distributed to students at the end of both the fall and ELECTIONS o spring semester. z Take advantage of this opportunity to find Wednesday & Thursday, April 13-14 2 out information regarding some of the faculty mem­ o bers you may have to choose from.

Thanks to all of you who attended the 1994 Emerging Leaders Retreat! The retreat was held on Saturday, March 1 2th at which 32 students attended. The overall evaluation of the conference was rated "good to excellent", on a numerical rating system of 4.58. The committee was very proud of the attendance and the responses they received. Some of the highlights of the day were; Leadership dynamics session, Motivation session, and the Nuts & Bolts session at which people from various departments presented the services they offered. Students were generally appreciative of the opportunity provided to network with other student leaders.

BY LISA M. WON

The international students represent over 15% of the student population at USF and are involved in all aspects of university life- from academics to sports, student government to resident advisors. The three most populous groups are from Indonesia, Norway, and Hong Kong. The undergraduate student organization that supports and represents international students is ISA- the International Student Association. This organization is well-known as a name and for the cultural foods and entertainment fair that they sponsor every year. However, when it comes to the many other aspects of the organization, many students draw a bbnk expression. I had the opportunity to interview ISA President, Susan Khua, and found out some very interesting things about the organization. Thus, by writing this article, I hope to draw some light onto ISA and all the different things the organization has accomplished through this year. The Multicultural Student Services (MCSS) center organizes an orientation for all international students at the beginning of each semester. Susan told me that the biggest issues that students face when they come to USF for the first time is always focused on immigration, immunization, registration holds, and the TOEFL (test on the English language for foreign students). MCSS and ISA works in conjunction to help international students with these issues during the orientation week and through the year. ISA members act as mentors and serves as a support network fo these new students. The first-ever Unite the People meeting was organized in September 1993 and another one took place in March 1994. These two meetings served as a gathering and interaction of the twenty (20) international student groups at USF. Susan hopes to keep the Unite the People meeting a tradition through the years. The event that most USF students know about is the cultural foods and entertainment fair that ISA organizes each year. The fair took pbce in October 1993 this year and its theme was "Culturescape '93'. There were 14 booths and every single one prepared a different type of food- ranging from "pancit" (a type of noodle) by the Philippine United Student Organization, to the Norwegian Waffle by ANSA. There were also foods and entertainment by the Japanese, Turkish, French, Indonesian, Chinese, and other international clubs. As most students can attest to it- this is the most successful event for ISA every year, and probably one of the biggest and most well-planned events overall at USF. ISA has planned another big event for this semester: the first annual International Spring Carnival '94. This outdoor carnival will take pbce tomorrow evening (Thursday, April 14, 1994) from 6:30pm to 9:00pm out on Harney Plaza. By paying a $3.00 admission fee, one can taste desserts and appetizers prepared by the international clubs, and get involved with interactive games. There will also be a featured performance on a type of Greek dance. This will indeed be a very interesting experience, so be there (and bring your friends too)! One thing that Susan wanted to stress was that ISA does not exist merely to organize social events, but that even more importantly, to serve as a support network for all international students and an educational resource. She hopes that in the future, ISA will cosponsor with other organizations in organizing educational forums on pertinent issues affecting the U.S. and international community. International students at USF want to be and are involved in marry aspects of the university, and will continue to be. ISA does publish a newsletter each semester. Club reports, international student advisor Carole Shaffers report, and articles of pertinent interest are always included in the newsletters. The next one should be published in the next few weeb. ISA also hold meetings every Thursday at 12:30pm, in the Multicultural Student Services office, ff you are interested in and/or have questions, ISA and Susan Khua can be reached at either x-2654 or x-6516.

AM., 1994 PAGE 2 Where Does the

BY EILEEN RIVERA

Confusion about your where your $ 100 student fee ends up is understandable. Yes, the Associated Students (all clubs and major organizations) receive income from your student fees.

The confusion lies on which accounts have been funded and whether or not the money is allocated for "good" purposes.

Some of the major accounts are College Players, Welcome Week, FACES, Greek Council, the Foghorn and ASAP. Your student fees help these organizations function to provide various services, many of which are student run. Many of these "student" services would not be available had it not been for the Associated Students budget.

Myth: My money is used fo pay for products in the Convience Store and Crossroads.

Truth: Crossroads and the Convience Store bring in the revenue to cover their own expenses and actually help to pay off some of the debts (accounts payable). This is to make sure

you are not paying for the Fritos Chips on the shelf.

Myth: ASUSF has a lot of money to give away, so what is the problem?

Truth: The ASUSF operating budget totals a little over $300,000 as estimated with current enrollment projections. It is not the rumored 1.2 million (previously misquoted by Bill

Jordan). In fact, the 1.2 million figure represents the total expenses (without the revenue) all the funded accounts incur (including Crossroads and the AS Express). The total expenses minus the total

revenue of these accounts represents the available subsidy (money available) for distribution.

Myth: The accounts are kept a secret and seen only by ASUSF officers and staff members.

Truth: Any student can see the pages of the budget. It is your right to have access and ask questions. Just drop by the UC 402 and ask!

One final misconception or misunderstanding is the distinction between clubs and the traditional "funded accounts." Clubs have a focused group to address and requests funds from

ASUSF for individual events. Funded accounts are "sponsored" by ASUSF and their budget requests are open ended and year-long. Both are recognized by the Associated Students.

Hopefully this has been a helpful to explain where part of your money travels. If you have any further questions please contact one of your senators. We would be happy to clarify

anything. CALENDAR OF EVENTS 4 r n i ii SUNDAY MONDAY TUESDAY WEDNESDAY THURSDAY FRIDAY SATURDAY

Its purpose is to promote the state of Asian America and heighten awareness in the API community; to educate API's and non API's of the our respective NON-RESIDENT COMMUTER REP. cultures, backgrounds, and ethnic diversity; and to serve as the voice of the Asian and Pacifiolslander community and as a vehicle for API's to get involved actively in issues concerning our community. WHY DID APSU COME TO BE? APSU is actually a statewide and west Coast-wide network of college and high school student groups featuring a range of schools from UC Berkeley, UCLA, University of San Francisco, Cal State Frenso, Lincoln High in Concord, CA to name a few. Recently, the statewide network has been restructured to focus more on regional issues in three regions separating California: Northern, Southern, and San Diego. The University of San Francisco chapter of APSU is currently working with other schools in the Northern region to focus on issues and concerns such as the National Coalition for Redress and Reparations to fight for justice on the issue of the internment of Japanese Americans during World War II. Also, APSU is actively fighting against hate speeches and hate crimes against our community. In addition, APSU has been active in fighting for our human and civil rights in today's America. Just last year, APSU joined the Asian CHAIR Immigrant Women Advocates in their campaign for justice against fashion manufacturer Jessica McClintock by supporting and actively demon­ EILEEN RIVERA strating and educating the masses of this episode of Asian American injustice.
