by numerous faculty members
from a variety of fields and several
udministrators.
One of the most anticipated of
the year, this facuhy meeting
featured the presentation two new
pieces of importan1 legislation
which focused.
The first policy voted on by staff
members dealt with the
University's policy regarding
harassment. The legislation
presen1ed was especially
noteworthy because ii was created
to encompass and protect against
"any form of illegal harassment."
While this may seem like an
obvious course ofaction. 1he latest
revision makes the procedure for
addressing less common, yet
equally significant, forms of
harassment clearer and more
structured.

at Hamilton College, and got the
idea to perform The Vagina

out about the V-Day campaign
and produced the show through
that organization, becoming part
of an international movement.
.. Women's issues are important. and Colgate is just one more
place that can benefit from hearing The Yagfoa Monologues,"
Stephenson said. '"It's fun, but
still gets important issues
across."

"The monologues were so far
reaching, from a catalogue of
moans to descriptions of horrific

seems almost impossible for
some amount of awareness not
to be raised by them;· McCue
said.

"I always wanted 10 talk about

good avenue to do so." she said.

"I got involved with the show
because I think it is important for
each of us 10 step out of our
comfort zone from time to time,
and this certainly was just that
for me." she said. "I also wanted
to suppon the wonderful and

first meeting of the Sorority Ac•
1ion For Educa1ion (SA FE) program focused on drug education
and specifically addressed "club

SA FE is produced and endorsed by lhc National
Panhellenic Council (NPC), the
organization that collectively
represents 26 Greek Leucr organizations for women throughoul
the country.
Director of Fraternity and Sorori1y Affairs Kelly Opipari led
the meeting. She distributed a
brief quil, testing the 30 or so

These drugs are more com-
monly known as EcSlasy, Liquid

Right now, the Senate has representatives from each campus

large senators arc a lso given
seats, as are the president of the
SCiA and 1hc rcprcsen1a1ivc of
the SGA executive board.
Restructuring the Senate was
the main theme of the presidential campaign last year by
KhojaSlch and SCiA vice President Senior Mike Desjadon.

against the lcgislalion based
upon 1he polling she has done or
her constituents. One of the concerns raised was that this legislation will create an instability
in 1hc Sena1e because groups will
have 10 reapply annually. thus
changing the number of representatives in the Senate each
year.
Andrtws Hall senator, first-
year Bob Fenily, also plans lo
oppose the restructuring legislation. fcnily believes that more
communication between the stu -
dent body and 1he SCiA would
ensure that every student is rcp-
rcscn1ed properly.
"I 1hink 1he restrucluring legis lation has good intentions. bul
cannot be successful. By choosing a few specific organizations
to have a senator, we'll be isolaiing all 01hcr clubs and ors•·
nizations on campus. If any•
thing, more training or guidance
should be offered 10 sena1ors so
they can represent their ... constiluents as best as possible,"
Fenity said.
Most students on the Colgale
campus seem unaware of this
current legislation before the
Scnalc, as well as many of the
other projects upon which the
SGA has worked this year.
Sophomore Jen White was
unaware of the reslnactvring pro-
posal in fron1 of the Senate and
was only cautiously in favor of
it when told about it.
"I lhink [lhc legisla1ion)

tions 1ha1 1he Senate believes
should be given Ibis privilege,"
White said, but added lhat if
the experiment is successful,
groups s hou ld be given perma•
nent seats.
Junior Toni S tamenova, formerly an at-large senator, recently resigned from her position with few expectations that
the restructurin& legis lation
would be passed as a result of
the slow progress of Senate.
The Senate has passed only
1hrce other pieces of legislation this year. most recently
esta blishing criteria for the
president's Social Fund, a
monetary source established by
the Office of the President,
from which students wi II be
able to draw to hos, social
events. This legislative activity contrasts with last year's
Senate, which passed legislation on a weekly basis.
"Whe n the restructuring leg·
is lation was proposed four
weeks ago. the floor was open
to discussion. It was one of the
rare times when senators had
the opportunity to express their
views and take an active role,"
Stamenova said. ..Yet. what
followed took the form of an
argument between the presi·
dent and 1he rest of senate,
rather than a conslructive de·
bate. Propositions were made

ordinary late-night happenings
of Colgate and should be
papular among students for a
, umber or reasons.
··We would like to have
~udents come down to the Hall
of Presidents on Monday to have
some fun and to break out of the
boredom of February and
March," Conant House Starr
Member Bacchus Advisor Jane
Jona said. "Students have the
opportunity to par1icipate in
somethina different. Plus, the
$200 might also seem
appealing."
Teams for Thinkfast w;JI be
composed of anywhere between
five and seven students. The fir,t
round will consist or a series or
trivia questions dealina with
everything
from
Oscar
Robertson to Oscar the Grouch.
In a format commonly seen on
quiz shows, contestants will
have an opportunity to "buzz in..
with a wireless remote. Points
will be given out based upon
right answers, while wrong
answers will result in penalties.
The first round of the
competition will be a true test
of knowledge
between
different groups on campus.
With many clubs and greek
organizations competing,
brauing rights will be on the
line. as these different groups
will attempt to answer all sor1s
of different questions. Teams
which boast a diversity of
skills and brainpower will have
the advantage in the first
round, as many different topics
will be explored. At the end or
the fist round, teams will have
an opportunity to regain lost
points by answering "The Big
Bid Question."
The action is only expected to
heat up as the top four teams and
two wild cards square off in the
"Speed Round," where teams
will be u ked questions in rapidfire format. In this round,
quickness will be as important as
intelligence, as the hosts of the
program will be firing out
questions quicker than the
contestants can think. At the end
of the Speed Round, the winning
team will receive $200 to split
amongst the panicipanlS of the
team.
Colgate Athletics is proud to
bring a program that has been
such a big success nationally

frequently levy war against
lheir own people and torture
human rights workers.
The SOA is referred to as the
School of Assassins by
proteslen, who say that soldiers
have massacred and raped
hundreds or thousands or Larin
Americans.
An independent organization
called SOA Watch advocates for
the closure of the training ground
and stop violent SOA attacks.
The Peace Studies Depammnt
hosted "Hidden in Plain Sight,"
a documentary on United States
dealings in South America,
Thursday night in Golden
Auditorium. Following the film,
Rickman and Kattau, of the band
Surena, played a variety of songs
about love and power. A crowd
gathered at the Pub to hear
Spanish and English lyrics
about women•s struggles.
resistance and courage. All of
the songs promoted the closure
of the SOA and encouraged
anti-war and anti-President
Bush sentiments.
Rickman and Kattau met in
1995 and recently formed the
"Latin solidarity and radical
country~· group, Surena. "Suren•
promotes songs of beauty and
struggle from the global
south," Kattau said. They tour
campuses and venues to raise
awareness about the SOA and
express concern about the U.S.
aoing to war. Their sonas
ranged f rom the "Activist
Lullaby" to "Honky Tonk
Angels."
Several of their song lyrics
were original, but most were
borrowed from p0liticat activist
groups.
"We want to challenge people
to think critically and find joy
and hope in taking action in their
communities,•· Rickman said,
"being active should be part of
your life."
The audience sang and
clapped along with the music,
but understood the grave
impor1ance or the lyrics. The
"Protest Song" said, '"the stakes
are humans, but (the President]
says war makes war no more."
The "SOA Fight Song," an
upbeat tune that detailed a
sarcastic view of SOA conflicts,

and the concert shed light on the
SOA and raised serious quations
concerning American deaJings in

The underlying goal of this
program wi11 be to give
students yet another social
option . A trivia contest such as
this is unique and in1riguing
for many Colgate students who
arc most used to a cenain
social and academic regimen.
Partic ularly, during this time
of the year, when mid-terms
are in fu11 swing and students
are spending increasing
amounts of time at the library,
it is important to test new
events with students.
"We are going to try to

Editor's Column
Have We Passed Our Peak?
Sarah Depew '03
ecently, one of my professors expressed his frustration with seniors missing
class due to job interviews. According to him, we have the rest of our lives to
worry about job interviews and our career. Right now. our focus should 1:>e on
classes . At firs1, I was taken aback by this srntcmcnt. The thought of not worrying,
even remotely, about what I might do after graduation seemed uuerly absurd. But the
professor continued on to explain his point. The college years are indeed the best years
of one's life, intellectually that is. After graduation, the intellectual climb reaches a
pl:neau and then takes a turn for the worse.
The more I thought about 1his statement, the more plausible it seemed Afterall, i1
seems highly unlikely 1hat after coming home from a hard days work at the office
anyone would reach for a copy of Tht Federalist Paptrs or an academic journal of
some description. Rather, it is more likely that the TV will be tuned to the news or the
latest version of a dating show, during· which you will fall asleep. The molivation to
continue the intellectual grow1h that was started in college ceases after graduation
subsides, partly due 10 being burned out after four years and partly due 10 a lack. of
necessity. Unless of course. you are one of the few going on to graduate school.
Ye1 is 1his really the co.se? In some sense it is true. The likelihood of picking up an
academic joum1.tl outside of being in an academic field is slim following graduation.
But, 1he continuation of thinking critically, which is at the core of a liberal arts educa•
1ion, is not so unli~ely. The crhic:il thinking skills that are taught and honed during the
college years only become sharpened as time goes on. In order to have any son of
intellectual life. the 3bili1y to think critically is essential. So yes, the intc11ectual life
that one experiences al college does come to an end at gr3duation time, but it does not
end completely, it merely takes a turn onto a different path. The intellectual life that is
lived during the college years is something that secs those years apart from all 1he rest,
some1hmg that 3dds to the luster and agony of the experience.
So in the end, what can be made of all this? Perhaps a challenge consisting of the
bcs1 of both worlds. Upon graduation, which is approximately two and h:ilf months
away, instead of viewing that time as the end of paper writing and reserve reading.
view it as a time 10 test yourself. 1 do not think that the plateau of our intellectual life
is fastly approaching. Certainly after graduation we will have more pressing and less
stimulating concerns 1han the problems Foucault poses, but the best of both worlds
does seem plausible. Jus1 reach for the occassional book or journal, or if all else fai ls
tune the TV to PBS or The History Channel.
R
nother modest proposal: I wholeheartedly aaree with tbe University of
Michigan's affirmative action policy. lt is important to single out and reward
traditionally under-represented minorities. Moreover, I think such policies
should be incorporated into other facets of society.
To wit: The National Basketball Association has a history of spuming many differ.
ent ethnic groups. This is a wrong that should be rectified. Teams ought to institute
some son of point system when drafting players. Talent is im.ponant, but it is also the
league's duty to include representatives from all races. So LcBron James and Cannclo
Anthony arc worth 12 points each. since they are the bes1 pseudo-amateur players in
the land. Luke Walton, though less talented, is worth 20 points. He is white, there is a
pauchy of white players in the NBA. He may not be worth drafling solely on the basu
of talent, but we should level 1he playing field to include someone whose race isn't
terribly well-represented in the league.
Other oft-ignored athletes would get a shot under this system. There has never btc1
a five-foot-nine, nineteen-year-old Jewish NBA player. This is discriminatory. Hey, ""c
need 10 mix things up. The NBA is decidedly short on female players, too. Because of
this, any of the Colgate women's basketball squad would be worth at least 35 poinu
under the new system. Yeah, the)' might not be as good as T-Mac, or even Kobe, but u
would be reprehensible to exclude women from this particular institution.
What's that? This is unfair to the those who will be overlooked in favor or leu
talented (and pootly represented) minorities? It is not right to reward people on the
basis of sex or ethnicity? Unfortunately, according 10 Hamilton, SyraCu$C, Cornell,
Michigan and Colgate, it is.

Tax Cuts And Class Warfare ••• Get Off OfYour DuffAnd Work For It!
Dave Hoffman '03
D
'
I
o you want more money? Before
you answer, you should consider
where the money is com.inc from.
Jn this case, I am talking about more
money a.iveo to you from tax curs. You
may uk what the catch is. Well you mu,t
first pay tu.es to get money from a tax cut.
If you're 001 payioa taxes, you are either
very clever or you would really like some
money. For tho,e of you who want money
(!Om ofu.rther, for you are missing many opportu·
cities to start you own bU$iness from home
,nd make untold millions. Want proof of
d,is? I get llboul ten e-mails a day that show
how you can like control of your financial
future. Those e-mails are a topic for the tech
column, and I will mention neither them nor
lhose who don't pay taxes again.
Money from a tax cut is a win-win situ·
ation. If you get money from a tax cul, it
seems you are taking the money from the
government, but really it's your money and
)'Ou're just getting it back. Taking money
from the government is a good thing. The
government already has too much money,
100 much of your money. The government
sends billions of your dollars to foreign
countries every year.
When UNICEF comes to yourdoor,just
rtll them to go away, because you an: already
giving a whole lot of pennies to foreign countries, l don't see why the federal government has to give out money to foreign
countries. because we have private orgaoiz.ations such as the Red Cross, UNICEF,
Ca1holic Charities and those wonderful
1clevision commercials whh Sally
S1ru1hers. Some might say that if we went
1otally private on foreign aid issues, then
fore ign countries wouldn't get any money.
Well if you went private. 1hen the people
could choose for themselves. In a democracy, if the people wouldn't give money
on lheir own volition, why should 1hc a:ovcrnment disregard lheir wishes?
Tax cuts will benefit lhe rich more than
1he middle claSs and the poor, but this is
because more of their money is being taken
away. If you are going 10 give money back.
the rich should always get more. It is bel·
ter to give than to receive. but how much
better should rich people be than the re.it
of us? I don't think rich people are any
better than the rest of us. so I certainly
doo't want them giving anymore. Why is
it fair to tu a rich person more lhan some•
one of more modest mcus? Not only do
they pay more, but the percentage is higher
too. If there were a similar percentage applied to all persons, I could respect s uch a
policy. The rich would be paying more
than everyone one else, but it would be the
same proportion. This is meeting equality
halfway.
If you do well at something and meril a
high income, is chere something wrong
wich that? Since when is it bad to be good
at someching? The rich are already so dis•
proportionately taxed that any relief to
them is an attempt to offer equality under
lhe law. What do people have against
equality under the law? I am ccr1ain many
groups have been striving for this status
for a very long time. Jus t because some
can afford co pay higher taxes doesn't
mean they should. USA Today did a poll
and asked people how they fell about lhe
current level of taxes. Fifty percent of
those polled said taxes were just fine and
founy·seven percent said they were too
high. It turns out that the majority of tha1
fifty percent who said taxes were just fine
didn't pay any caxes! So the vast majorily
of people paying taxes in every income
group think taxes are 100 high. II is hei·
nous to deny a. tax cut when the people are
crying in unison for lower taxes. What
ever happened 10 ''by 1hc people, for che
people?"
I hear a lot of talk about the upper c lass,
and 1he rich c lass. Who is crying to start
class warfare here? I don't even think the
terms upper, middle and lower class are
appropriate. You are not consigned 10 your
class by birth or racial exclusion. Bring me
anyone of any status, I will hand him a million dollan and he will be immediately transported to the upper class So it's not really a
class at all, it's an income bracket. There are
no legal or hereditary restriclions limiting
entry into another ..class." The entire term
of class in relation to weallh is a myth in a
free market system. You can actually move
up in this world.
The U.S. Oepanmenr of Labor does a
SUJVey every two years on income and economic status, In two cycles. fourpcfCCJltof
the people io the lowest economic status had
moved up to a higher division. That is a fairly
large number and every four years there is
anothcrfourpcrcent chance that if you didn't
move up in the world you arc going 10 lhis
lime. Not everyone moves up. bu1 that can
happen for many reasons, and l have nor
been convinced thar ii is because of 1hc
current economic system. If this were a socialist state or Communist state, J would
agree on economic status as being class.
Be wary of any who tries to push these
class terms on you; they might t,e. interested in starting a violent war. If this were
a Communist s1a1e, I am pretty sure I
would have zero chance of moving up economically. I'll take my chances with up·
ward mobility, and I also like the idea of
freedom to succeed, even if it brings freedom to fail.
How many times do you want to tax 1he
same money? If a corporation makes
money. 1hat money is taxed (that's once).
If that same money is paid out in a divi.
dcnd to an investor, that investor is taxed
(that's twice). Ir chat investor dies and
leaves that money to his beloved widow
and children, it is taxed a third
time. Taxing the same dollar three times
can leave less than a third of the original
dollar. How would you feel receiving chiny
cents on the dollar? Is chis some sort of
twisted joke? Well, some people oppose
an end to two of the three thefts from thal
one dollar. If you want to tax money once,
I am not overly enthusiastic, bul I can put
up with it. S1ick out your hand three times,
and I think there is a serious problem.
Deficit spending is bad because debt is
bad. But debt is not always bad or avoidable. Many cf us here in colleg:: are get·
ting deeper and deeper into debt every year
because of school. Should we just drop out
of school to avoid debt? Some debt is
wonh getting. There is. therefore, bad debt
and good debt. In the future, I plan 10 pay
off that debt, bur I also plan on having it
for twenty years and I am not in a panic.
If the federal government wants to spend
a few yea.rs in debt that is fine by me. Even
if the debt grows luger each year, as long
as the dcb1 takes up a smaller percentage
of the GOP, then I would say rhc debt is
shrinking in comparison to what the federal govcrnrncn1 can handle.
If President George W. Bush said he
was going to dcficil spend and charge it
on c:rcdit cards, 1hen I would have some
serious concerns abou1 debt. Right now
interest rates are low, and when lhe government issues bonds to cover debt, the
interest rate is locked in. What is wrong
with bonowing money in an economy that
favors borrowing?
Why arc there so many questions in this
article? Because I want people to write in
to TJit Maroon-Ntws and give opinions
thal the rest of us can enjoy, or not enjoy.
I will not get upset if you totally disagree
wilh me and wan1 to present your take on
things. This is noc a public e-mail, so you
don't have co respond to my article at all.
Just present your cake on the idea it is
abou1: I am not asking you to create a new
bicker box. This encire article is just my
opinion. and I don't think everyone agrees
wilh me. but your silence is rn.cil agree·
ment. If everyone agrees with me that
is also flnc by me because it's a free
country and you can use your freedom
to conform.
What if I don't have anyching 10 write
about, and what happened to your article
on taxes? Des perate times call for desperate measures, so I am outright pleading with you to contribute to the paper. You
can't keep getting a free ride of contenc
from your student paper f rom me.
Tax cuts arc good; writing for Tht Maroon-News is good: attending Star Parker's
lecture on March 4 at 7 p.m. in the Hall of
Presidents is good: this article is over: also
good. If you are good, I will write some·
thing about another crea1ure from my

Now, lhis little handicap of mine didn't
totally ruin my weekend. I was 1here, af.
ter all, among a mostly enthusiastic group
of brilliant young people who had amuing stories to tell and insights to share. So
wha1 if I didn't open my Huie colored female mouth? The time was more than
filled by other colored (or white) female
(or male) mou1hs 1hat could share their
experiences without going in10 emotional seizures. They didn't need me.
I was almost content to sit back and
relax with this 1hough1 unlil it occurred
to me tha1 someone was wa1ching me.
Someone who knew for a fac1 1hat I had
thiags 10 say. tba1 I wasn't a sponge by
natwe, and that I really did care about
the issues being discussed a1 hand. She
was onto me.
It was my roommare. I could sense
her glancing over in my direction every
once in a while, and I k:aew that I wasn•1
1oia1 to get out of this unnoticed. I felt
su.ffocated, and I knew it showed. There
were ima1es and tboughcs 1aJ1oping
throa1b my brain that I w anted to ex•
press, that I felt like I could say out loud,
aod perhaps even eloquently, if only
twealy-eiaht or 10 of the approximately
chlny people lo Che room would disap-
peu.
11'1 DO Die tryiDI lO be invisible if
evea just oae pc non kaows that you' re

acdy lbc 1ilea 1 cype ellber. But at chat
_ . 1 , la the room fllll of ouc-of- place
office c~ain ud eapaina talk, I truly
felt as if my edges were blurring into
the wallpaper. I had come so close to
deciding 1hat being invisible was highly
preferable to talking in front of all these
people, but my darned roommate made
me 1hink. twice. And while chinking
twice was not enough to draw me out
during 1hat re1reat, it was plenty e nough
10 make me fidget and squirm and re•
evaluate certain things.
In high school, I had c hosen this kind
of invisibili1y withoul even thinking
about ii. I chose ii over standing up for
myself more than once, and assumed
thal my silence was a .. personality
thing," and therefore to1ally excusable.
I chose to bile my lip and run myself co
exhaustion while coaches overlooke d
me and my s1a1s because I didn't fil the
Mia Hamm or Gabriel Reece image. I
though1 1ha1 eventually. 1hey'd see me
if I was more than outstanding - instead,
I should have learned thal if people arc
blind, 1hen ac1ions can't speak louder
than words. I chose not to bother when
they forgot me at award ceremonies,
shrug1ing my s houlders with the com•
ment that it was jusc a piece of paper. These
were thinas I chose to do, and 1herefore
chose 10 remain invisible, But now, the
problem ma.kCJ ilself heard: Am I willing
to stay 1ha1 way?
I say no, With some cau1ion. Even if I
may never be tba1 motivalional speaker or
articulate poster child of Colaa1e diversity.
what I'm doin1 ri&ht here, right now, is
refusing to be invisible. You reading this

Rags To Riches To Refortn, Lecture On Welfare's Woes From The Converted
Ryan Trow 'OS
H
ave you no1iccd anything strange
lately? Maybe you have felt a
slight tension building on campu.s
over the last few months. Well, this tension. which has the power to spark the
minds and enflame the hearts of the
masses. can only be the product of good
old fashioned political discourse ... But
how," you may ask, ..could such a healthy
tension be coming from the depths of the
Colgate communi1y?" Af1cr all, Colgate's
academic, administrative. extracurricular
and poli1ical scene is governed by the political left.
Think about it. when was the last time
you heard a conservative idea or opinion
while at Colgate'! Perhaps ii was way back
during freshman year in Barry Shain's
Politics and Moral Vision class. Maybe
1his rare experience occurred while watch·
ing T/i, Bill O 'Reilly Show on Fox
News. You may think to yourself, "Hell,
I didn'1 even know that CC'nserv:uives ex•
isted anymore; I always assumed that they
were simply a part of modern folklore,
something that only existed below the
Mason Dixie line where evil things hap..
pen - not on my college's campus.''
Well. for a few minutes I ask you to
remove your glasses, those blinding lenses
of liberalism. and to take a good look
around you. In the vas1 mosaic 1hat makes
up 1he Colgate communi1y, in and amongst
the sea of red tiles that represent those of
the leftward political persuasion, have appeared small clusters of blue tiles, which,
though few in number, stand in such stark:
contrast to lheir surroundings that they
cannot go unnoticed. These blues tiles,
bastions of conservative ideals, are the
proud members of the College Republi·
ca.ns, put on this earth for one purpose: to
bring an end to the tyrannical grip of liberal
ideas and opinions that have stifled Colgate's
intcllcc1u.al scene for years. Yes, the College
Republicans, though outnumbered and often
ostraciied. will continue to fight the battle
of ideas in our ongoing struggle to bring true
intellectual diversity to Colgate. We aim to
en.sure that you, the masses, are not kept in
perpetual ignorance from neglecting ..,he
other side of the story," as David Horowitz
remarked.
On that note, I am proud to announce that
the College Republicans are bringing Stor
Parker to Colgate on March 4, 7 p.m. in

1ional dialogue on issues of race and pov·
erty in lhe media, inner city neighborhoods
and public policy. Prior to her involvement
in social ac1ivism, Parker was a single
welfare mother in Los Angeles, California.
After receiving Christ, Parker returned co
college, received a BS degree in market·
ing and launched an urban Chris1ian magazine. The 1992 Los Angeles riots destroyed
her business, but served as a springboard
for her f0ket altcma1ives to empower the lives of the
poor.
As a sociaJ policy consultant, Paraker
gives regular testimony before the US Congress, and seraves as an expen guest on
major television and radio shows across the
country. Currently, Parker is a regular com·
ment11or on CNN, MSNBC and FOX
News. She has debated Jesse Jackson on
BET, has fought for school choice on Larry
King Live and has defended welfare reform on TM Oprah Wi~f~y Show.
Nationwide, Parker shares her story and
policy suggestions 1hrough college and
church lectures, community outreaches and
empowerment conferences for inner•city
pasion. She has hosted radio talk shows for
Christian and secular markets and audiences.
and cuJTently is fca1Urcd as a regular guest
editorialist for USA Today. Major accom·
plishments include speaking at the 1996
Republican National Convention and coproducing a documentary on welfare te•
form with the BBC in London.
Parker's personal transfonnation from
welfare exploiter to conservative crusader
has been chronicled by ABC's 20/20, Rush
Limbaugh, R,adus Digest, Dr. James Dobson, The 7()() Club, Dr. George Grant, TM
Washington Timts, Christianiry Today. Cha
risma, and World Magat.int. Articles and
4
quotes by Parker have appeared in major
publicariont- including Tht \Vall Strttt
Journal, Tht Wa1hington Poll and The
New York Timts. Her autobiography
Pimps, Whores &: Wt/farr Brau was re.
leased in 1997 aad her new book, How th,
Poor Gof 2003.
The topic of Parker's disc,wion will be
welfare reform, an issue that is very much
relevant to the greater Colgate community.
Ever since welfare refonn was initiated io
New York State nurly five yCMS ago, the
funding for ADFC welfare bu de<;lUSe() by
eighty-one percent in MldiSOtl County. Na.
tionally, nearly fifty per cent of fonne.r weJ.
fare recipients are now employed (thiny-two
per cent full-lime and sixreen per cen1 pan
time). Some critics of welfare reform argue
that il has not been effective because nearly
fifty per cent of those who are now emplo)'td
are living at or below the poverty
level. Ultimately, it's up to you to decide the
mcri1 of welfare reform, and as 1he debate
still rages on, Parkcr·s firsthand experience
with the welfare system will give the Colgate
community new insight into the issue.
On behalf of the College Republicans. I
encourage you tO open your minds tO some
new ideas, take some risks and sec thu
conservatism is still thriving here al Colga1e.
Though ooce an inactive group, the College
Republicans have returned this year wilh a
force and vivaci1y that is just beginning to be
felt. We represent the proper conservative vilamins and minerals for Colgate's intellec1ually malnourished populous. At the hean of
con.servatism is the principle freedom. something which the College Republicans will not
be denied.
''Iraq: Justified'' Far From It, But The Argument Had Me In Stitches

his essay is in response to Steven
Fair's February 7 Editor's Column
enthled, "Iraq: Justified." I want to
rh~k fair for such brillio.nt satire! Such wit!
Such comedy! I h;:,,d no idea that latent comedic writers such as Fair existed at
Colgate.
Of course, I am assuming here that
Steven could no1 have been serious. Are
we living in 1hc same country? Are there
two United States of Americas. o ne lead
by a good natured, humanistic Oeorge W.
Bush a.s President, and the other run by
Mr. ''do as l say, nol as I do" Bush who
puts the nnrrow interests or wealth and
power above our once great nation?
Nah. It had co be satire. No intelligent
college studcn1, at a comparably respect•
able university could fail to sec the sheets
of propaganda that double for front-page
news everyday. 1hat tell us how frightened
we should be. 1hat tell us that America is
in a state of chaos. If chaos is 1he prob
1cm, I acknowledge its s ubstance. but dis ..
agree o n bo1h the source of this crisis and
the means to achieve our goals, which are
currently way out of proportion. Do you
1101 find it disturbing that this administra
tion needs war and terrorism to maintain
its popularity? Take 1hese two away, and
Bush's horrendous domestic record is no
longer concealed. Forty million Amcri·
caos live below the poverty line, fif1y million arc without heahh care and corporate
crime is at i1s highest peak in years - chis
presidency was bought, with Bush as 1he
sheep at work for corpora1c shepherds.
Furthermore, docs anyone not find this
administration's handling of Public Enemy
Number l (Osama bin Laden) very evasive

Iraq - ic is not Osama bin Laden, it is not
Al Qaeda and although the mustached dicta1or Hussein looks like a great "evil" guy
on which to place blame, he did not kill
5,000 Manhauanites on September 11,
200 l. On the co11trary, a war would not
stop terrorism. but help terrorists-it would
destabilize an already volatile region of the
globe, via selfish attempts to con1tol the
Middle East politically and economically
- Bush may as well set up terrorist recruit·
ment ccn1crs the day he declares war
against Iraq. I find their methods disturb,,
ing to say the least. and we should all be
aware of terrorism from wi1hin, as well.
No. II must be sa1ire. Sen1ences from
Fair's commentary start with "Colin
Powell told me 1hrough his presentation ..."
and "What Powell's presentation on
Wednesday told me ... " and (this is the best
one) "I find it highly unlikely that Powell
would be lying about a sicuation as serious as this.'' J reton: how can intclli,ent
young adults be fooled into thinking that
what the U.S. administration tells us is tantamount to the absolute truth? Most Ameri•
cans can see through Bush's war lun. like
a dog drooling over a steak, acknowled&·
in& that 1herc is no credible reason to wage
war and inflict tremendous civilian c.asu·
allies in the name of some empty canister

chased in 1986. The reason he has not gotten the "green light" is because the world
knows what he is up 10. I think I speak for
many when I say that I am much more
afraid of George W. Bush that I am of
Saddam Hussein. Nelson Mandela has
called Bush "arrogant." All over Europe
and Asia. the collective belief is that our
government is out of i1s mind.
Fair also Slates. "How can Powell con·
vince a wary American public that American goals have 10 do with public safety,
and no1 with chc well-being of Shell or
Exxon Mobil?" Interestingly enough,
once you travel out·
side the Fox News
controlled U.S. media, che world is in
10111 agreement
with the anti-war
movement. The
anti•Wat prolCSIS in
Bricain have been big r.nough 10 throw Tony
Blair's power into question.
I a,ree with the author on one point: the
fear of terrorism is still "'out there," as in the
fact that many countries still hate us vche•
mcntly. Docs anyooe ever ask why? Never.
Are there really thousaads of sub-humans
out there that call themselves "Al Qaeda"
who arc utterly insane and unjustified in
their feelings? Of cou.ne we've never dooe
anything to them. We haven't been humiliating their nations for years, exploiting
their resources ud manipuladn1 their lives

Commentary
the 1970s. when Dick Cheney served as CEO
of Halliburton Corporation. he made hundreds of millions of dollars from oil deals
with Saddam Hussein.
If we all take a step back, this war against
the lraqi people can be observed as having been non.stop since 1991. From its
origins when Bush Sr. wa.s in office. the
dream of both Bush adminis1r11ions has
been to install a puppet government in lraq
that will cave to U.S. interesu and give u.s
as much oil as we wanl, when we want it.
Controlling this oil will nol only give u.s
economic independence from the Middle
East, it will gran1 us huge power over other
countdes that depend on it as well - it's a
succulen1 poker chip.
The Jes.son here is simple: it doc.s not
mancr how you torture your own people.
as long as you give the Americans what
they wanr: che second you stop, then the
warplanes are sen1 ouc. It's a sad pattern
in U.S. contemporary foreign policy 1hat
shows no sign of ending. What Bush is
doing is really criminal~ it's a moral blem·
ish on the record of his .. Compassiona1c"
administration.
It's a sick: exploitation of September
11 sentimental residue 10 juslify pro·
ceedina: wich Bush's personal politic31
and economic agenda, and we should
hold him accountable for it. He is car•
rying out an assault against the general
population and future aenerations, abusina his power in the interests of greedy
financia l spheres.
No: Fair's commentary was defi·
oitely satire. That's the only po11ible ex·
plaaation. Unteu this person is not a
colleae studenl at 111, but aaOlher io a
strcamina line of GOP-paid ba<:ks. Now

Colgate Not Cultured, Not Engaged? Give It Time & Don't Write Us OffYet!
RJdw'd Scott Adams '03
Hey, "work quickly, play for a long time"
,..nds great 10 me! I !hink 1la1 last week's
conunen1ary by Adam Wolk about lhe intelic,ctual :umosphere at Colgate was an intercsiing piece, bul he undereS1imates the
,codemic drive of many people here. Al·
chOllg.h we arc very intcres1ed in having a
goocl lime will! our friendJ when class is not
di SC$Sioo, J do not think that it is fair to say
!bat '"any interest in academic or current af-
fairs seems 10 et'Kl for most of lhc studcncs
.tien classes end."
l do not want to draw divisions between
'""' years, because I truly believe 11111 after
,ae's fin• scmcs1cr of college, he or she has
.,ore or less the same standing as the rest of
the college community. But after ta.king
many intense courses in one's area of concenuarion and panicipating in off-campus
sKUdY, the potential for continuing academic
discussions outside of the classroom defi-
this sort of conversation is typical of the
nitely increases.
For example, I had an excellent study
group experience in Switzerland, during
which I explored issues involving European
Union, diplomacy, transitional p0litics and
security. Back at Colgate (outside of the
classroom), my friends from my study
group and I frequently discuss the European Union, figures in Central European
politics and how Brussels is responding to
Iraq. Similarly, my friend was talking
about the merits of doing several different
majority of time I spend oulSidc of die classroom. Still, ifl can dlink of a couple of quick
jobs priorto auending law school, andjok·
ingly mentioned working in custodial sci-vices if nothing else became available. I was
able to pull oul my Emcnon andlology and
point t0 a place in ..Self-Reliance" where
Emerson encourages folks to sample several
different trades rather than opting for the fast
track.
II would not be right for me 10 say Illa,
examples like I just mentioned, I am s ure
that most people on our campus can also
lhinlc of a few moments when topic.s covered in class have wonned their way into
discussions e lsewhere.
Although talking about acadcmks outside of the classroom is fine and conttibutcs
to one's four years of educatio n, talking
about non-academic things and getting to
know other people deeply is more important. We arc fonunatc to be in a privileged
place where acquiring knowledge and
growing up_arc the principal tasks. But
making good friends and having good
times without bringing $40 paperbacks
into the conversation is imponant, too.
Something else that Wolk covered w:t.S
the fact that the Beta reaction/protest
showed that Colgate students• priorities are
misplaced. I disagree with this. To me, this
protest showed tha1 many Colgate students
love 1heir school and want to maintain
those c lements of the Colgate experience
that arc in danger of disappearing. The ter·
mination of fraternities at Colgate would
represent a fundame ntal change in the char·
ac1crof this inslitu1ion, and while that change
might be the direction in which higher edu·
cation in general is headed, the protest
showed that students are thinking about the
future of old Colgaie. l pcnonally don' t ca,c
about che o utcome of the decision, but I do
care about Colgate's future (academkaJly
and socially). so seeing students engage in
this protest is refreshing.
So think about Colgate's future and pro-test if you wish, because we now know
how much attentio n protests draw. Aho.
be grateful for having so many people our
own age with whom we can discuss both
school and beer.

Campus Life Awards
February 2003
The Campus L~e Award is an honor granted to students and student organizations that have performed remarkable service and commitment to the
Colgate community. Below are the recipients of the February Campus ~e Awards along with an abridged explanation of their accomplishments.
Campus Life Congratulates
Outstanding Student Leader - this award goes to the student leader who consistently and continuously demonstrates his or her
leadership through his or her involvement.
Brandon Malmberg '03 for his work as an outstanding volunteer and leader throughout his four years at Colgate. Brandon is a member of SOMAC
and has also volunteered his time as a Sidekick. In addition, for two years, he headed up the Madison Group Home Tutoring program, a program
that allows Colgate students to provide tutoring and homework assistance to young people in the area. Brandon's dedication to the residents of the
village of Hamilton has been an inspiration to many. Brandon has become a true champion for these children and they have greatly benefited from
the mentorship and trusting friendships offered by Brandon and his fellow Colgate students.
Outstanding New Program - this award goes to the student or group who worked on a new and innovative program.
The LOFT (Leadership Options For Tomorrow) program in Andrews Hall. The LOFT students planned and coordinated a Winter Wonderland for
children in the Hamilton community on Saturday, February 8, 2003. This program was a great success, providing many activities for the children of
Hamilton a 'Winterfesr of their own. Some of the activities provided included ice fishing, a candy hunt, tug of war, and dancing. In addition, local
merchants donated food and drinks for the several faculty members, student Sidekicks, and local families that were in attendance. The LOFT
program and Nicole Lehrhoff '03, HR of Andrews Hall, deserves to be congratulated for their efforts.
Outstanding Collaboration - this award goes to students or groups from various organizations that come together and show true
collaboration in putting together an event.
Green Summit was held January 14 and 15, 2003. The program brought together students, faculty, staff, and administrators representing several
departments and groups from all over campus, such as the Dean's Office, Environmental Studies, Printing Services, the Loj, the COVE, the
President's Office, Buildings and Grounds, the Geology Depdrtment, the Economics Department, and many, many more. The Green Summit
served as a springboard for the continuing effort towards Colgate's current environmental state and it also provided an opportunity to create a
shared vision for Colgate's environmental future. We applaud these groups for coming together and working towards this common goal.
Nominations were made by Mamie Terhune, Co-Director of the COVE; Rach91 Balcfwin, Assistant Director of Residential Life; Beverly Low, Dean of
First Year Students
Hyou would like to nominate a student or gro..., for a Campus LHe Award, please contact Ponia Flow&fS at pllowers@mail.colgate.edu. Thank you.

"'""' Yup, ti,anks 10 this week's featur1, Tom Bowles. Bowles is a senior
. mg from Hamden, Connecticut, and his
tin television, radio and film produc.
..,1,a,e brought Colgate University Tele..,n (CUTY) 10 new levels.
Bowles be1!)1l1 his career in radio producdo1ng public service announcements for
high school. Naturally, hejoined CUTV
the start of his first year, and his tCSpOn)Jh1ies included worlcing on both Colgate
,key broadcasts and The Bottom LJne, a
, · show with a comedic backdrop. He
I) staned a music-comedy skit show
ll«l Raider Rock as a sophomore. His
,1:ess earned him the position of A~is1Manager his sophomore year and, later,
era I Manager (GM) his junior year.
Hi,daily responsibilities in.:dule, coordinating all the shows and
ri.,ng with producers 10 ptoduce the higl,,
quality shows. He also speameaded a
J.000 fw,draising project this past summer
renovate the studio and bring in more
1pment
RcOecring on what motivates him to put
and effort into CUTV, Bowles recd, "I think lelevision is a great meof entertainment, and I enjoy worlc~ith fellow students to produce shows.
'hen a new show premieres and I see the
'1tment on people's faces, I feel good
ing I was insttumcntal in making that
happen."
In addilion to production, Bowles lets bis
rive side shine by rrlormaning and erenew shows for CUTV. He chan&ed
number of hoSIS from four to three in
lk,tt()m Unt and decided IO fealure a
cren, Colpte sport each week. He also
ted and co-hosted (with senior Ari
'igoda) Match Game, a pwody on the '70s
show last semester.
Although Bowles enjoys all kinds ofTV
uction, his real passion is for sports
ision and he has made significant i,n.
1ements in the production of Colgate
Moroon•News Slaff
"During a Jifelimc, a human transfonns
himself into many lhings." This line, spoken by the c haracter Tania, captures the
essence of Associate Professor of English
in the University Thea1cr David Pinncr's
play, Midsummer. T he play is centered
around the most magical night of the year,
and deals with the strangely eccentric obsessions of individuals and how 1hey are
able to overcome them. The play's firstever pefonnance took place lasl night in
the Dana Arts Cen1er in Brehmer Theatre,
and 1he remaining shows will 1ake place
tonight at 8 p,m. and tomorrow at 2 p.m.
and again at 8.
Midsummer is a modern homage to
Shakespeare's A Afidsummer Night 's
Dream. The characters in Pinner's play
parallel those in Shakespeare's, although
the plot is quite different The audience
is unsure exactly what the characters Ron,
played by first-year Sian-Pierre Regis,
and Tania, played by first-year Elizabeth
O'Leary are. They might be fairies - or
something else all together - but the possible occult powers they employ 10 invoke
the obsessions of the vi lJagers are com~
parable 10 those of Oberon and Tiuinia in
Shakespeare's A Mids11mmer Night's
Dream.
Maeic is a focal point throughout Midsummer, both literally - as the character
Crispen , ponrayed by sophomore Daniel
Wakeman, is fascinated with satanic
power and the occult - and abstractly as
well. as the characters• obsessions are
made into rcalitics."
Pinner's production is also great1y concerned with nature. The play is set on a
sunlit lawn, in a garden at dawn and a
midnight wood. Ron and Tania are on a
self-proclaimed mission to care for and
watch over the deteriorating English landscape. Several of the other characters are
enthralled with nature and its elements as
well.
The comic mayhem that ensues
1hroughout lhe play is a key elemcnl that
collcc1ively brinas the production and its
characters together. It is a performance
with so many underlying meanings and
subliminal messages that one cannot just
take it 11 face value. It constantly plays
upon the imagination.

Music plays an essential role in Midsummer as well. Throughout the play, the
characcers hear their own individual music that no one else can when they imagine their different obsessions. The music is similar to that heard in musicals,
and is pivotal in intensifying and enhancing the mood and themes throughout the
show.

Acquistion Of Ray Allen Looks To Benefit Sonics
The NBA trade deadline passed last
\"·eckend and I was under the assumption that, as usual, there would be more
fa nfare than action. One trade in par1icular, could
be influential
in this years

the years to
come.
Big
names s uch as
Latrell
Sprewell,
Keith
Va n
Horn ,
and
Gary Payton
were rumored
to be on the
move,
but
Payton was the
one leas1 likely to be moved because
he grumbles about not being appreciated every year. To the surprise
everyone, he was the only high profiled
player to be traded, as he, along with
Desmond Mason, was shipped to the
Milwaukee Bucks for shooting-guard
Ray Allen, Kevin Ollie and Ronald
Murray.
.
This deal centen around Payton and
Mason for Roy Allen and it is a slippery slope for the Bucks to walk. "The
Glove" is one of 1he best point-guards
in the league, but II he approaches 3S
yean of age, one hu to wonder bow
much lonaer he con be counted on for
2 LS plus poinu and 9 auis1s per
game. Desmond

appean co favor 11,e Bucks; however
GP is ia bi1 contract yeu ud most
likely wi l I walk, so getting Mason fer the
multi-talented ali-sttr Allen is a small price
to pay. Ray Allen, the former"DrcamTeamer" and star of the Spike Lee
film ...He Got Game," is under
contract for a few more seasons
and is seven years younger than
Payton. "The Glove" is looking
for the all-illusive championship
ring, so he will not s tick around
after this season and watch the
Bucks re·tool ye1 again, because
he is entering the twilight of his
great career and he wants to win
now. Once the Admiral re1ires,
the Spurs could be the front run·
ner to land him for a few more
seasons to run the point.
Ray Allen gives the Supersonics an exiling and still fairly
young player around which to
build a contender. He can slash
to the basket and is a deadly
jump-shooter, so with him added
to the mix, their future is looking far brighter. Payton is one of
the best in the game, however he
was a bitter, whiny aging superstar who may have caused more
problems then his talent made up
for. Rashard Lewis is an·emaai,11

of silverware is
up for grabs . The
Wort hingt o n
Cup, termed the
"Worthless Cup"
a ll these years by
the major teams in England, fi.
nally has a fi nal that any tournament could dream of with traditional rivals Manchester United
and Liverpool squaring up. This
final line-up will take the
Worthington Cup out of the
shadow ofthe FA Cup and might
become a more important trophy
James' Park. It has been much more than
that for Newcaslle this season. They have
only lost once and drawn once in their
fourteen home games. And wi1h 1heir
youngsters starting to show 1heir immense
talent, things c an on ly get better for
Newcastle. Robson's astute buys a"' starting to show their class as Newcastle becomes a more all -round team with
s trength in the back complementing their
auacking prowess.
Chelsea's season has staned to slutter
after a very promising fight of it for a long
time. For once, pundi1s fe lt that this
Chelsea team might make it all the way.
But once again, ghosts of Chelsea' s pas1
have resurfaced with limp displays in
their last few matches. They will face a
well nigh impossible task of beating this
to the Premiership teams.
Bui, despite thi s being a
cup final. there are two othe r
games across Europe th at
arc fascinat ing and will also
probably draw a lot of attention. In Ital y, the top t wo
1e ams, Jnte r Mila n and
Juventus face o ff. Thi s is a
mouth wa tering clash and is
nearly matched by the game
b etween Newcast le and
Chelsea - the third and fourth
placed teams rcspec1ively in
England. Both these games
have a huge bearing on the
fates of the two leagues.
Columolsl Verdict: Newcastle proves
100 strong for Chelsea despi1e a fighting perfonnance.
I nter MIia n at J uvent us:
Juventus are looking to restore some
pride after being whipped by Manchesler United at the Stadio Delle A lpi in
the midweek Champions League fixtures. Their line-up still fee ling the af1cr effects of the flu that ravaged their
side last week were absolutely destroyed by Manchester Uniled. Their
players will be out for revenge. And
1his is the perfect way for them 10 do
it. A win against Inter will give
Juventus the top stop in the Italian
League and their players
will be relishing this opportunity.
Inte r Milan do not
trave l well. OulSide the San
Siro, they have looked
limp and their attacking
threat has bee n n e a rabouts non-existent. But,
this is a game that will determine whethe r they can
hold on to the top ~pot in
the league. The ir side is
severely depleted by injuries and their strikers
have been misfiring with
the exception of Christian
Vieri. Sti ll, they lack the
fire power to trouble a

Manchester United is on a high after

form has been inconsis1ent of late with a

baske1ball was a success. Never in
my wildcsl dreams did I 1hink that
we would see our fina l broadcast

have a clutch performer like
Linebaugh on our team. He really
made our year with that last shot.
I want to thank Coach Emmen
Davis and his players for being
ex1remely helpful to CUTV all
season long. The team•s coopera•
tion throughout the season has
helped us a great deal. Nex1 year,

team dominated Union and fousht

record on Colgate's ice seemed to

First-year Jon Smyth kicked off
the home scoring with his first
