Yes, kids, the rumors are true. The Foghorn, my beloved muse, your time-honored student newspaper, somehow finagled an exclusive interview with Emilio Estevez. Now aren't you kicking yourself for being so damn apathetic that you can't make the Tuesday meetings at 6 p.m. for one measly hour. Well, you should, because I met the man who has starred in "The Breakfast Club," and "The Outsiders." We won't mention, "Men at Work" or "The Mighty Ducks." It would «"" «••*• imirr^» I'm going for here. The interview was conducted at EvansGroup downtown. Myself and the other newspapers didn't really know what to expect. Were we going to meet a world class snob, a pretty nice guy, or an obnoxious Hollywood yutz? As we anticipated the young man's arrival, I checked out the competition. Some pushy chick form the Noe Valley Voice, with a really bad hat, her sidekick, another writer for the Voice, with a bad pink shirt and an even worse bow tie (do Voice writers really get paid that little?), two girls from Menlo College, a woman from some media conglomorate or other that I didn't get the name of, and a man from the Sonoma County Times were what I was up against. Everyone was eyeing each other warily. We all were wondering who would dominate the conversation. I looked over my notes and thought it would be best to drop all the questions regarding Paula Abdul and why on earth is there a need for a "Mighty Ducks 3."

Then (quiet hush) walked in Estevez. SUZANNE GCHTZ/FOGHORN He was dressed so casually that I was kicking myself for spending hours picking an outfit that looked somewhat "hip." The hours wandering around my closet did pay off, however. My shoes that added on about four inches made me slightly taller than Estevez, who is a really small fellow. As charming as a button, he walked around the table and shook everyone's hand and introduced himself to everyone individually. Then the battle began. The chick with the bad hat was determined to intimidate this young college journalist, but quick to the punch, I made sure to interject a question every time she paused to take a breath. Estevez remained polite and friendly throughout the half hour that he was greedily purged for information about his new movie. Talking to Estevez is like talking to one of your pals. He is the essence to what it means to be down to earth. , I was afraid that he might brush my questions aside, being from the Foghorn and all, but I was completely wrong. Whenever someone asked a question, he answered it as completely as possible. He would make intense eye contact the entire time, even though us journalists (I use the term loosely) were furiously scribbling in our notebooks. With a family background loaded with all kinds of celebrities, it is amazing how numb Estevez is to his popular status. Martin Sheen is simply "dad' to Estevez, and he credits his father for the success of his newest film, "The War at Home." "My father was a real motivating factor," VAN REOIN/TOUCHSTONE PICTURES Continued on page 20

Over twenty-five USF students were randomly surveyed on video tape. Each student was asked: what does ASUSF mean to you? The responses ranged from, "AS what?" to "It means work!" The goal was to illustrate the many perceptions students have of the association, if they have any at all. The rest of the evening was spent going over senate expectations and goals. Also, the senators joined in an off- tune rendition of "happy Birthday" in honor of Senator Adriana Lopez, who celebrated her nineteenth birthday. The Friday and Saturday get away was planned in conjunction with the Office of Student Leadership and Enrichment's Leadership Summit. Whereas Friday was spent concentrating solely on issues relating to ASUSF and senate, Saturday was spent with other student leaders exploring different modes of student leadership develop­ ment.
