X6 MA1I1KR 17 WKDNKSDAY. MARCH 7. IWO DEBATE DRAWS OVER 300 STUDENTS

On March 1, over 300 students attended the Foghorn-sponsored debate and open forum concerning the new Institutional Policy on Freedom of Expression, which was approved by Fr. President John Lo Schiavo, SJ., on Feb. 2. The majority of the crowd showed support for the new policy.

Panelists included Lynn Ritzman, Foghorn editor, Denise Swett, ASUSF Business Manager, who moderated the event; John Shanley, former Foghom editor, John Smith, Liberal Arts and Science Senator, Pat How­ ard, ASUSF president; and Laurie Moore, a representative ofthe Women's Law Students Association (WLSA).

The event, originally scheduled for the Crossroads, was moved to Parina Lounge due to the exceptional turnout Ritzman opened the debate with a brief summary of events which led up to the new Institutional Policy, and the Senate's subse­ quent resolution, which they passed unani­ mously Feb. 14. "Which direction do you think USF should take concerning the new Institutional Policy on Freedom Moderator Swett chose speakers from the of Expression?" This was the topic of a debate and open discussion held last Thursday night in Parina Lounge. audience, ensuring that each was given fair time, and that each panelist had the opportu­ nity for clarification or rebuttal. Smith opened the debate, explaining why the Senate was opposed to the policy. "Char­ tering and funding and indiscriminate use of Minority Students Question facilities by unjust causes has nothing to do with freedom of speech and everything to do with direct institutional support," said Smith.

Bible...Last Monday I was exiting the Green and Gold, walking up the steps towards the Foghom, when all ofa sudden a bunch of water balloons came hurtling down from the dorm windows of Phelan, striking the top of Cardiac Hill, near the "Stop" sign. For a moment I thought / was the target of this attack and lhat perhaps Mychael Urban had assembled some kind of "Anti-Pat" club. However, I dismissed this thought when I realized that the actual intended victims were those hapless Australian evangelicals who were handing out a pamphlet entitled "The Fall of America." The way these would-be preachers were distributing their pamphlet was kinda funny: they'd hold the literature out to you, ask if you wanted it, and if you said "Yes" and took a hold, they'd grip their side of the pamphlet harder and mention that they need some cash to further their ministry. I cut all my classes to watch how Dons handled this. Most Dons just let go of the pamphlet when the people asked for money. Others, I guess, got so mad that the pamphlet wasn't free that they decided to pelt our visitors with water balloons. Unless, of course, the water balloons were thrown Buckle Up For Spring Break '90 because the attackers disagreed with the victims' "theological viewpoint." But Dons don't get all riled about that, right?

I find the people to be more relaxed and what are care-free about life. The people 1 have come in contact with here have a real good sense of what life should be like. People on the East Coast are more intense some and have a tendency to get caught up in the rat-race. They forget to take time differences to enjoy themselves and the people around them."

Maybe because of mainman Ron Yokum's drug problem and lack of Patti and Grace Slick of Jefferson Airplane. If these were two the record was released in 1988. Either way, the big winner discipline) arc the Jethro Tull's of die category; i.e., if they win it separate categories Patti would win for jazz and Grace Slick for amongst these artists, namely Charles Brown, John Lee Hooker, will be a sham and Exodus' brilliant "Fabulous Disaster" is too rock. But I think Patii will win. Roy Rogers, Joe Louis Walker, and Katie Webster, is John Lee heavy for the popular vole. That brings it down to a three-horse Hooker's The Healer. The man possesses power and passion that race that's loo close to call between Tesla's "The Greal Radio Bay Area Musician of the Year. -1 haven't decided yet. continues to amaze. Controversy," Testament's "Practice What You Preach," and FaiihNoMore's "TheRealThing." Out on a limb I'll say FNM by Bay Area Club Band of the Year. - Two get my vote - Sister Outstanding Urban/Contemporary Album or E.P.- Digital Double Happiness and Psychefunkapus. Underground's "Doowhatchalike/Hip-Hop Doll" 12" is my pick here...their album Sex Packets was not nominated. FM2, the debut Outstanding Male Vocalist.- Chris Isaak gets the hip I-Beam record from Sacramento's Foster and McElroy (Jay King/Club nod while Tom Johnston (Doobie Bros.), Todd Rundgren (he's Pat's Picks from the Bay Area?) and Neil Young will split the aging rocker vote. Bul Faith No More's Mike Patton is without a doubt the best (Continued next page) vocalist of the bunch. His versatility is stunning and he wears nice Outstanding Jazz Album.- Tuck & Patti are kinda cool (Ver­ hats.

Outstanding Guitarist.-Jerry Garcia still plays guitar? I ihoughi he was in the ice-cream business or something now. Oh well. Garcia will pick up the ever loyal Deadhead support while Joe Satriani snags thc widdly-widdly noodle-head vote. Don't rule out Mcttali-ballot-sluffcrs sneaking Kirk Hammet past everyone. Neil Schon is nominated too? It's tough, bul given thc choice, I'd put on a Santana record out of all these guys so, Carlos is my pick.

Outstanding Bassist.- I jusl dig a good bass player. Thc most underrated guy in any band is the bassist, y 'know. Les Claypool from Primus won't win but he slaps a super mean, funky four-stringer. Jack Casady (Jefferson Air plane) and Rob Wasserman (who?) aren't in the running. The Dead's Phil Lesch, the last time I checked, had changed his name to "Ben" and was making ice-cream somewhere in New England with Garcia. Give the award to Jason Newstead from Met­ allica because he has mastered the second most impor­ tant skill any bassist must possess; the ability to make funny faces while playing.

Bay Area Musician ofthe Year.- John Lee Hooker- he's older than my grandmother yet he still creates some of the best blues in the history of the genre.

Club Band ofthe Year.- Babylon A.D.- So power­ ful live that I once had my nose broken and a tooth chipped by the shear velocity created by the guitars.

Sandy's Picks

Outstanding Album. - Hands down, Freedom by Neil Young. "Keep On Rockin' In the Free World" is thc song for the decade. Key Lime Pie from Camper Van Beethoveen is worth a mention as well. Key Lime Pie was definitely one of thc best LP's that came out this year. Bul Neil Young will win.

Outstanding Independent Album or E.P. - Al­ though I like Consolidated's -.oil titled LP a lot 1 still think Primus' Swk On This is the strongest candidate. These guys arc going to really be popular soon.

John Lee Hooker grabs fans, but Maze featuring Frankie Beverly have a ton of fans in the category....here are the candidates: Jonathan Cain of Bad English, the obvious vote. Neil Young comes in a close second, Don Cherry Bay Area. They may win for their sort-of "comeback" record. Silky Roddy Bouum of Faith No More, Brent Mydland of the Grateful is up there, as well. M.C. Hammer is the hands-down winner of Soul. To make things tougher, M.C. Hammer's record Let's Get Dead, the wizard and true star Todd Rundgren, and bluesy gal M.C. of the year honors. Carlos Santana is my perennial favorite, It Started (in it's 2nd or 3rd incarnation) is also nominated, as is Katie Webster. The only candidate whose record I heard all the so I can handle it if he doesn't win this year. Too Shon'sLifels...TooShort. Worthy records, both of them.

No Mwe's Mike Bordin, the Grateful Dead's twin drummers time no one fromHue y Lewis' News was nominated. The possible The Paul Robinson band is also a treat, as is Spang-A-Lang (South Mickey Hart and Bill Krcutzmann, solo artist Michael Shrieve, picks are Don Cherry, Clarence Clemons, Richie Cole, John Bay). For those who prefer a harder, faster edge, Happy World Metallica's Lars Ulrich, and producer/drummer Narada Michael Handy, and Pharaoh Sanders. Something makes me want to vote offer up their bTand of intensity quite often, and their guitarist, Walden. Naiada's a bad-ass, no matter what you think of his for Mr. Sanders on principle, but my pick is Don Cherry. Shane Frink, is more talented than probably any other guitarist in production work for Whitney and co. However J have a feeling the slew of post-punk bands which play around here.
