The program's current coordinator, Linda Pratt, spoke at Open Forum at Monday's meeting, along with members of the USF Faculty As­ sociation Policy Board and Killian, who is also the Associate Vice President for Student Affairs. Pratt said that she had been given a letter stating that her em­ ployment would be terminated as Linda Pratt of Dec. 31, though she has filed an appeal with the Personnel De­ partment.

It seemed Innocent enough. You and your friends decided to end the week with drinking. But accidents can happen. And they happen a lot more when alcohol is involved. Greek-letter Informational When judgments become Impaired. When people begin to lose control of what they're doing—and of what's being done to them. In fact, nearly one in ten women and men at USF say they've been taken advantage of sexually as a result of drinking. Another 10% admit having taken advantage of someone else as a result of drinking.*

It's worth a second thought.

Look, we're probably not telling you anything you don't already know. Excessive alcohol consumption can— and often does—lead to problems like injury, sexual assault, and even rape. But ifyou choose to drink, do it in moderation. Don't drink in uncomfortable of unfamiliar situations (visit our Web site or UC 309 for more Guidelines to Safer Drinking). Because it sure wouldn't hurt to keep control ofthe situation.

"Ritmo Latino" was held Friday, October 22 as part of Festival 96 and focused its attention on aspects of Latino culture. We heard powerful and humorous poetry from poets such as Kathy Garza and Norma Zelia. rYom Ariel Vargas, we heard the touching poetry of young boys in juvenile hall and their idea of what the world would be like if they ruled it. Lastly, Noelia Mendoza put on a poetry sensation, backed with a live band-which really stirred things up and prepared us for the next attraction of "Ritmo HOOP DANCERS Latino", Candela. Candela's six piece band livened up McLaren with hits rhythmic Latin sounds and Hoop Dancers and the People of Mother Earth kept the partygoers dancing salsa until lOp. Then the party was finished with a DJ spinning hip-hop, by Andrew Jolivette R&B and various house mixes. Ritmo Latino was a great success. Thanks for the support of all who attended and we can't wait to do it again next year at Festival '97. October 22nd brought Native-American hoop dancers lo the University of San Francisco for the first time. These dancers were brought as part of the Festival 96 celebration which was coordinated by the Freedom Alliance of Culturally Empowered Students (FACES). This year's Festival marked the fourth year that FACES has put on this spectacular week long extravaganza. The title of the Tuesdav noontime event was Expressions ofthe Spirit and the program focused on three Native-American dances and poetry written by famous Native-Americans.

This matter will continue to be in discussion as of Monday, Nov. 11. If you have questions about being a part of the Public Relations Committee, have input for the insert, or questions about PR for the Senate call Kevin Morgan at x6984. Tile Senate has also asked that National Coming Out Day be put onto the calendar of events in the Fogcutter. As reported in the Foghorn this request was denied by Fr. Schlegel. Dr. Carmen Jordan-Cox did approach the Senate with Fr.Schlegel's reply. The Senate then requested that Fr. Schlegel approach the Senate for further discussion on the topic. Fr. Schlegel will attend the meeting on Nov. 25.

Many other issues have been on the table and will be on the table in coming weeks. The Senate would like to encourage anyone interested in attending Senate meetings to come. They are open to everyone and are held from 5:30 until 7:30 (ending time fluctuates as necessary). Meetings are held in McLaren 250.

ARTS AND SCIENCE As Senators representing the students in the College of Arts and Sciences, we would like to introduce ourselves to our constituents. We are, in no particular order, Matthew Cox and Jennifer Howard. To let you know a little bit about us..., we are a Sophomore Politics major and a Junior History major, respectively.

The goals we wish to accomplish with the creation of these council are to facilitate better the communication with students and the ASUSF Senate, and to close the gap between students and professors within the realm of the Arts and Sciences. Some issues we wish to tackle in coalition with the council are: a possible internship fair, special programs, such as speakers and career fairs, and course requirements, including the GEC, just to name a few.

Ifyou are interested in being a part ofthe Arts and Sciences Council, you can contact us, Matthew Cox and Jennifer Howard, through ASUSF in UC 402. We hope to hear from you soon.
