UHPA members to vote on strike By Steve 1\!Iurray Editor-in-chief

In December UHPA is planning a meeting to vote on the possibil­ity of a strike.

Since June 30, 1995, the mem­bers of the UHPA have been work­ing without a current contract.

The union which represents all professors and lecturers working half time or more within the UH system, has been trymg to negoti­ate for a new contract since Jan. '95.

Since that time the union and the state agreed to continue work­ing under the terms of the old con­tract until a new contract is ap­proved.

James Robinson, the UHPArep­resentativc at KCC has voiced many concerns with the contract talks . "The state refuses to negoti­ate," Robinson said.

One maj or hurdle that has kept the negotiation process in a state

of flux is that the UHPA must nego­tiate with two different bodies, the UH Board of Regents and the Gov­ernor.

"We have a conflict between [the regents and the governor] who's re­sponsible for various portions of the contract," Robinson said.

Some of the most notable con­tract issues regard salary, the hiring of lecturers to open positions in the UH system, intellectual property and transfer of programs to name a few.

UHPA is attempting to negotiate a 4 9c salary increase, the employ­ers (BOR and Governor) position is that no money exists for salary ad­justments.

Another particularly sticky situ­ation involves intellectual property. It is the employers position that all work products such as book publi­cations and patents are property of the university. However, intellectual property is shared between the em­ployee and the university at most universities. Stacy Chun tries on a broom fo r size

call to arms: the time is-now By CliffKai Staff Writer

We mustcrack the atomofcivic power and expose the tremendous opportunities of service learning. If the era of big government is over, then we've got to get the people in­volved."

conference and observing Hawai 'i 's various community-based service programs.

As former director of the Peace Corps, Wofford now has the chal­lenge of overseeing seven agencies that provide volunteer-oriented as­sistance. Over 1. 2 million citizens are involved in such organizations such as AmeriCorps, Learn and Serve.

During his visit, Wofford spoke of the considerable financial support legislative bodies have appropriated for funding service learning pro­grams. He claims Republicans have doubled their s ort to back these

service programs. There has been a substantial in­

crease in funding for work study and literacy programs," Wofford ex­plained, "and it can do nothing but good for the well-being of our soci­ety."

Wofford believes service learn­ing is an essential aspect of any col­lege education. "It [service learning] is a natural for any college educa­tion. College students have so much to offer to their younger counter­parts. And they gam a whole lot more in return ."

Janice Cook, assistant English professor, shared with Wofford how she has incorporated service learn­ing into her classroom. ··some of my ESL [English as a Second Lan­guage] students are tutoring at Palolo Elementary while others pro­duce the • Palolo Pride· newsletter."

The lives of thousands of senior citizens are enriched and brightened through several major programs Wofford supervises . Children and their elders int~ract through RSVP (Retired and Senior Volunteer Pro­gram) and Foster Grandparents . Wofford believes seniors can enrich children's lives more than they

think. "The older generation is like a

walking library. They have lived through a whole lot so imagine what they have to share."

English instructor Irena Levy also explamed to Wofford how her students touched the lives oftoday's older citizens. ''One of their projects was to collect anecdotes from el­ders . They would interview them,

gather information and re-write the stories as fiction."

Over $2 billion has been set aside for "Read America," a literacy program that aims to integrate both service learning and literacy. Wofford has been a champion in fighting for government money to initiate new programs that target is­sues such as illiteracy, homelessness and crime .

"This year we have renewed the broad bipartisan support for national service in the Congress that will take us through 1998. National service certainly improves the lives of all of us," Wofford said.

Aids lecture Dr. Ralph J. DiClemente and as­

sociate professor of public health, medicine, pediatrics and social medicine at the University of Ala­bama at Birmingham, will be speak­ing at UHM on Oct. 29 at 4:30p.m. in the Biomedical Sciences B 103 and in a School of Public Health class on Nov. 1 at 9 a.m.

Dr. DiClemente says that al­though the AIDS rate among ado­lescents is low, the prevalence of high-risk behavior among adoles­cents increases the probability they

will be infected with HIV. Dr. DiClemente will be discuss

"HIV Prevention: Challenges and Pitfalls in the Design of HIV Risk Reduction Programs," at the Oct. 29 lecture.

The Nov. llecture will focus on HIV I AIDS epidemiology, begin­ning with adolescents and AIDS.

Letters to the editor

Bette~; w~ys to cope I am writing in concet:n about the

opinions expressed in your Oct. 15 "Speak Out," column. When asked "what do you do to relax," half of the responses cited drug references such as alcohol and marijuana. [The] Kapi 'o should have the jour­nalistic integrity to not only repre­sent free speech, but put the inter-

, est of it's students first. Suggesting or expressing interest in drug use will be misinterpreted as condon­

. ing it. Alcohol, although socially ''ac­

ceptable," [alcohol] affects millions who consume it, as well as the sur­vivors of alcoholism and the vic­tims of drunk driving.

Marijuana is often cited as a

··gateway" drug that ~an enco urage further experimentation.

When we are trying to expa1~cl our min(JJs at KCC, is this what's in mind '> Perhaps if peo ple were taught how to cope with stress and relax in beneficial ways, we wou ldn' l see the so called "need" for drugs. There are many alterna­tives and this is what should have · been promoted.

"Smoke a joint and drink a little." Why is this reply allowed to appear in our newspaper. It makes no sense to me to print this meaningless re­ply.

Sears retired two years ago. He began teaching here in 1980 and had served on the faculty senate and as DPC and depart­ment chair.

Ibrahim Dik, Professor of Economics, said Sears will be re­membered for his optimism and happy outlook on life. "He taught us how to die with dig­nity and optimism."

With the elections quickly ap­proaching, many people are faced with the tough question of Bill Clinton or Bob Dole. Both the Democrat and the Republican can­didates claim that they will do many things to benefit the American people. However, so many of us, especially young people, have grown weary of both of the two parties.

A major criticism of young people today is their lack of inter­est in politics. Programs such as MTV's "Rock the Vote" were spe­cifically designed to target the younger voters in order to get them interested in the elections. What candidates did MTV cover to get young voters interested'J Wow, Bob Dole and Bill Clinton, what a sur­prise!

Big money from big corpora­lions seem to dictate the amount of media coverage candidates receive.

The only other candidate receiving media attention is Ross Perot. Ross Perot just happens to be a billion­aire! I guess. the adage "money talks" may have something to do with this being possible.

Young voters need to know that their vote is enormous. That is why they need to vote. The first step is realizing that there are other candi­dates running for President. Citi­zens would be amazed to know that besides the two major parties, there are eleven other parties in the elec­tion this year. Some of these par­ties include the Natural Law, Green, People's Revolutionary and Citi­zens for Cannabis to name a few.

Another party that has been overlooked by the media is the Lib­erta.rian Party. Their candidate for the presidency is Harry Browne. Harry Browne is the author of a couple renowned books, two of which are "You Can Profit From a

Monetary Crisis" and "How I Found Freedom in an Unfree World." There are some major is­sues that the Libertarian Party ad­dresses that might interest the com­mon voter that feels their vote is ir­relevant. One major issue is the "'War on Drugs."

The Libertarian Party feels that by decriminalizing drugs, the crimi­nal element is taken away. In other words, by ending drug prohibition, gangs, drug dealers and violent crimes caused by drugs will end. This can be compared to the earlier days of alcohol prohibition. By end­ing the imprisonment of drug us­ers, there will be more prison space available for violent criminals. Ap­proximately 60 percent of this country's prison space is occupied by people convicted for drug of­fenses. Some other focal points for the Libertarians are anticensorship, Jess government and less in\'olve-

What would you suggest to control Hawai'i's growing crime problem?

Dylan Spielrogel Liberal Arts

I'd suggest legalization of all nar­cotics not only to free up prison space, but also to cut the price so people won't have to commit crimes to feed their habit.

Takahiro Okomoto Liberal Arts

I don't think more prisons is the solution, maybe more gun control and curfews to keep kids at home with their families.

Arlene Cabaccang Pre Ed.

I would like to see guns in Hawai 'i completely abolished. Another key point is to control the gang prob­lem by curfews, anti-drug and anti­gang education.

Richard \Varrcn Liberal Arts

Enforce stricter laws. More youth programs. Basically more preven­tion than intervention.

ment in foreign affairs. The bottom line is that the Lib­

ertarian Party believes that indi­vidual freedom should be returned to the people. With this freedom comes less government intervention and the return of individual rights to our society.

When it comes time to vote this November, remember that there are alternatives to Dole and Clinton. Don't just settle for what the media has advertised. Make the decision yourself. Your vote does count!

·· PTA studentS can ·'Jn.ake. th.e pain· go. away I

By ~arin Lum Staff Writer

Students of the Physical Thera­pist Assisting program at KCC put on an open house Oct. 21 to share information about their field. Any­one was welcome to watch or be a participant.

The students demonstrated therapeutic exercises, uses of a hot or cold pack, lumbar 'traction, 'and , the most popular of the treatments, massage. They assessed gait pattern (how you walk) and body posture. The students also taught the proper way to use a wheelchair, crutches, walkers and canes.

The studcrnts running the open. house were friend! y and informa­tive. Thomas Harrer, instructor, said, "I really like the fact that the students are showing this kind of initiative; this all happened because of them."

Harrer also pointed out that all . of the PTA students at KCC spend time at the Special Education Cen-

• I

ter of Hawai 'i (SECO), once a week to give therapeutic treatme~ts such as stretching the muscles of chil­dren, giving them a wider range of motion.

'"What makc::s the field of physi­cal therapy so .great is the fact that there is so ~uch variety withm the

· field," Haner said. The PTA program accepts about

20-24 students a year and takes one year to complete. In the class stu­dents will get a chance to 'use what they learned in real life settings.

Organization and quality of the presentation wa's excellent, but it

. was a little . disappointing to see such a small turn out, maybe due to the lack of exposure.

If you missed this open house and would like to go to the next one, call 734-9270. Leave your name and number and someone will get back to you, or see Kazuko Sukigara in Kauila 201. Even if you are not interested in the field of physical therapy, it would be worth going to. And you can't go wrong with a free massage.

New chorus clciss seeks golden • VOICeS

By Jennifer Leong Staff Writer

Do you sing in the shower? Of course you do, doesn't everyone?

If you like to sing, then Chamber Singing is a class you should take. It's called Vocal Ensemble 201. ·

What is Chamber singing? Chamber singers preform in groups coasisting of 16-20 singers who sing traditional music. In Hawai 'i it w.ould be typical to hear a Cham-

ber group preform Polynesian or Hawaiian songs.

This group is going to try some­thing new, singing a variety of clas­sical, pop and ethnic music.

At KCC the existing singing

course is a chorus. The second group, the Chamber singers, will have an opportunity to go to Kauai and have two open concerts in Feb­ruary and May. Depending on the talent of the group they could go much further.

The class is taught by Bob

Engle, who teaches singing and leads. chorus groups. Many years ago he lead a chamber singers group, Maile Aloha Singers, which lasted for 18 years.

Their success was so great that they went on to perform twice a week at the Royal Hawaiian Shop­ping Center and had 12 Interna­tional tours.

UHHilo, UHManoa and Kauai Community College have already started chamber singing groups. ·All schools have done well and the

groups are continuing to grow and prosper. Mr. E~1gle feels that same SlJCCess will be achieved at KCC.

Emollment in the class is stri~tly by audition. The audition will be held some time before registration.

"We are trying for) preregistra­tion so the people who are inter­ested can sign up for this credited and transferable course," Engle said.

The auditwns will consist of ttu·ee criteria: singmg a song of your choice, singing , a song chosen for

you and the ability to recite from memory.

If, you are selected for the cham­ber singing group your _name will be posted befC?re the start. of the se­mester.

This aud1tion is open to every­one. If you do have a singing voice, please do not hesitate to audition. We would love to hear your vocals, Engle smd. ·

Jack-of-all trades offers "anykine" service for hire By Steven Grover Production Editor

Just like the name of his busi­ness suggests, "Schenk's Anykine Services," Brett Schenk is the kmd of guy who can do just about any JOb that needs to be done. His busi­ness card says, "Cleaning, handy­man, yardcare and much more." The "much more" includes pamt­ing, moving furniture for elderly and hauling.

Schenk has another business card for his title as Distribution manager of Honolulu Weekly.

In addition he also works for an agency as a home health aide. For this job he takes care of a wheel­chair bound stroke patient. He helps the man out of bed into his wheel­chair and exercises the man's arms and legs. Schenk also helps the man do activities that most of people take for granted, such as combing hair, getting dressed, and making breakfast. "There's a lot of gratifi­cation in helping a person who can't help himself." he said.

As if he didn't have enough to do already, he is also a property manager for a four bedroom condo

Brett Schenk

and is taking a ICS 102 at KCC, a beginning Internet course.

Schenk learned much of his handyman skills from his father who also did many odd jobs. Schenk learned more by doing re­pair jobs for himself and others, such as refurbishing a mobile home, fixing leaky faucets, etc.

He learned more skills by going to a two-year electronics trade school. Then he worked for Texas Instruments until he quit seven years later to go to college.

Schenk hoped to decide what career to pursue by the time he fin­ished fulfilling his core classes. He then started to work towards a nurs­ing career but later decided it wasn't for him.

Eventually he started his cunent business, where he caters to people who don't have the skill, tools or the time to do various jobs that they need doing. His motto for his busi­ness is, '"If at first you don't suc­ceed, hire it out." Schenk said, this way people can save time and trouble .

Schenk said David N akemaejo 's entrepreneurship class helped him to focus on his business. Schenk already had the business, but he said, "It was kind of like shooting in the dark beforehand." He said the class helped him to focus on the necessary steps. Schenk even got some business from a student in the class.

He said Economics 101 is a good primer for the entrepreneur­ship class. He recommends both classes for students who own a busi­ness or who plan to start one. Al­ternatively, Schenk recommends the SCORE program, which is a free program where retired business people offer advice to those who are starting new businesses.

Like a me die val warrior who lived by the sword and died by the sword, Schenk says, "I live by the pager and cell-phone and therefore

will die by the pager and cell-phone. Either I'll die by crashing when I'm on the cell-phQne while driving or my beeper will give me a heart at­tack," he said.

So why does Schenk keep him­self so busy with h1s multiple jobs') ''I see myself as 1-iaving three legs to stand on," he said. Each leg is one of his jobs, if he loses one, he still has two others to stand on.

With a nightly average of four to six hours of sleep, Schenk holds three jobs, attends a class and is al­ways on the move. Schenk pleads : "I'm guilty. I am [a workaholic] but I'm reforming."

Schenk said his friends had to bring attention to the fact that he was spending too much time work­ing and not enough time having fun. Now Schenk says he is trying to take more breaks and force himself to spend more time with his hob­bies which include swimming, surf­ing, recycling and organic garden­ing. He also thinks of himself as a Contemporary Urban Archaeologist - that is he looks in garbage bins for neat stuff. His favorite quote is, "I can't believe they're throwing this away."

If you have some odd job in your

home that needs to be finished call "Schenk's Anykine Services" at 734-1957.

Correction Last week, a page I story on

the workshop on disability access had numerous errors that oc­CUlTed during the production pro­cess. The text of the second col­umn should have read:

Some matters of concern that were talked about, were confiden­tiality, which should be treated in the same way that medical infor­mation is treated; accommoda­tions that are acceptable: and con­cerns that LD students may have unfair advantages, one example being, some students and faculty feel that having extra time on tests

is unfair. The answer was that studies

show that students without learn­ing disabilities do not do signifi­cantly better given more time, while students with learning dis­abilities do significantly better.

The headline of the accompa­nying story on page 6 should have read "learning disabled."

This year the Honolulu Jaycee's annual haunted house for the March of Dimes will be held at Dole Cannery Square in Honolulu.

This event is anxiously awaited each year by cbcoves of people from all walks of life and from all age groups who share a common quest when they choose to enter the haunted house. They wish to taste FEAR.

The Honolulu Jaycees have quite a reputation for instilling fear into the patrons of their haunted house. Al­though there is no underly­ing theme, the Jaycees prom-

. ise a "Spooktacular event" for everyone.

The Jaycees are up to the challenge according to Glen Fong, president of the Hono­lulu Jaycee chapter. "This year's haunted house is go-ing to be the best one yet. This is the biggest haunted house we've ever constructed, in terms of usable

. that is a sure hair-raiser. The haunted house will

also feature confederates, actors who are equipped with blood packs strapped to their bodies, who enter the maze with the patrons. Somehow during the course of the maze, they are attacked and brutally maimed right in front of your eyes .

The Honolulu .T aycee ·s annual haunted house for the March of Dimes will be open for two weekends, Oct. 25-27 and again on Oct. 31- Nov. 2. The cost

Most everyone in Hawai'i has heard of the Honolulu Jaycee's an­nual haunted house for the March of Dimes. Very few people, how­ever, can really comprehend just how large a production tbis event really is.

First, a location must be selected that has at least 7,000-8,000 square feet of usable space . Then wooden panels 4 · x8' high are stacked on pal­lets 5' high, ami there arc 19-25 pal­lets of lumber altogether, and an additional 80-100 pieces of 2 · x4' are needed to tie the whole project · in together. Over 400 panels of wood are used to create a mini­maze with six unique rooms.

This entire construction pro­duction falls under the direction of Brian Borthwick, a Honolulu Jay­cee member and volunteer. During the construction phase, only about 50 Jaycee members and volunteers help to build the haunted house. This is because most are carpenters by trade or have some background in construction.

Among the volunteers are KCC students Gerri Nishiki, Make Nakano and Raymond Yuen.

Once the construction is com­pleted, Jaycee members and vol­unteers complete the task of deco­rating the entire haunted house. Members of the Honolulu Jaycees, who are respected business profes­sionals donate costumes, makeup, and their time, to make the haunted house a huge success for the march of dimes ..

Ben Borthwick has the enviable task of directing and supervising the

sound effects . Each room in the haunted house will have its own lighting and sound system that is different and unique unto itself.

On show nights, there are over 24 two-way radios that are used by the cast of the haunted house to en­sure that the show is a success.

The haunted house is also able to accommodate wheelchair users as well as other people who are physically challenged.

Glen Fong, the Honolulu

Jaycee's president, and Adrian Ditucci, the Jaycee's Management Development's vice-president , were both recently asked why they would volunteer so much of their time and effort into a project that seemed to be taken for granted by the public. They simply said that they were speaking for 1 aycee members everywhere when they say that they simply just enjoy mak­ing a difference in the community. And that is a reward in itself.

Students help fight AI OS By Kim Concepcion Sta_ffWriter

At a time when an estimated 1 in 500 college students nation­wide is infected with HIV, the vi­rus that causes AIDS, it is reassur­ing to know that an organization like Student Educators against AIDS (SEAA) exists to combat these numbers.

Located in the Student Health Services Building on the UH­Manoa campus, SEAA is com­posed of three staff members and roughly 50 undergraduate and graduate student volunteers whose main goal is "to educate students about how to protect themselves against AIDS and to decrease fear," said Luana Tanaka, the outreach coordinator for SEAA.

All of the volunteers must par­ticipate in 15 hours of intensive

HIV training to prepare themselves for their roles as peer educators. To date, they have given presentations to hundreds of classrooms, resi­dence halls and health fairs through­out the Manoa campus.

The 50-minute presentations are somewhat of a "AIDS 101 course that is designed to give a student an introduction to AIDS. This includes going over the biology aspect, epi­demiology, the modes of transmis­sion, and prevention, which is what the presentation is focused on," Tanaka explained.

"We encourage an interactive presentation and by having group discussions and using video, over­head projection-anything that works . We try to get the studen'ts' input instead of setting up the pre­sentation as a lecture," said Manny Young, one of the peer educators.

"If there is one thing the peer

educators hope to get across to the students," Tanaka said, '·It would be 'Knowledge + self-esteem+ skills= behavior change.' This is a model that we want to emphasize during the presentation; something for the students to build on."

Along with the presentations, SEAA also provides free HIV test­ing and counseling every Thursday. SEAA also houses a resource li­brary equipped with books and tapes at anyone's disposal.

Sadly, in terms of funding, it has been not been a reassuring year for SEAA. "SEAA's funding has been cut by half by the Hawaii Commu­nity Foundation, the Department of Health and UH. It's been tough to keep in operation like we used to and to expand to the other colleges in the UH system."

Elections online:

Candidates on the web By J'ay Owens Staff Writer

In 1960, Vice President Ri~hard Nixon and Senator John F. Kennedy changed the face of politics in the United States when they squared off for their famous tel~vised debate. Not many Americans could have foreseen the effect that one tele­vised debate would h~.ve on cam­paigning, but in the 30 years fol­lowing this famous ,debate, televi­sion has become the driving me­dium for candidates to get their message to the people.

This election year, voters will not have to rely entirely on televi­sion or newspapers as a source of information concerning candidates and issues.

Campaign '96 will be remem­bered in history as the first year that . a major political presence is seen on the internet and this presence offers web surfers the opportunity to seek out information and opin­ions for every major election. For first time in more than 30 years vot­ers are turning to alternative infor­mation sources and the candidates are aware of the internet's ability to influence today's society.

Every day thousands of people around the globe-are connected to the "Network of Networks" and in the United States we have seen the largest increase in usage. Because of this rapid growth of the internet,

many politicians have turned to the web as a way to reach out to voters. President Bill Clinton and former Senator Bob Dole both have sev­eral web pages devoted to their ·campaigns for the highest office in the country.

Clinton has several pages de­voted to him. A great place to start if your looking for Clinton pages is on "The Unofficial Bill Clinton" page <http://www.zpub.com/un/un­bc.html>. This page bas an exten­sive group of links to several infor­mation pages concerned with Cl~nton·s bid for re-election. Clinton also has an official home page which can be found at <htlp :/ /www.clinton96.org>.

Dole has an excellent Website <http://www.dole96.org> that in­cludes a biography of the former senator. Though the senator is trail­ing in the poles, he is doing well on internet presence. Dole also has an unofficial page as well that is lo­cated at <http://homepage.seas. upenn.edu/-lapplebobdole.nscape. htrnl>.

The pre-mentioned pages were produced by supporters of the can­didates and reflect information

tion of Front Line that presented a clear and unbiased picture of both candidates. The information in­cludes a biography, political history and issue stance of each candidate.

Many pages do not limit their information to just candidates .' There are several pages which re­veal insight into the election ·s pro­cess, explain positions of political parties and share ideas common among voters. Websites such as MTV"s Rock the Vote, the League of Woman Voter's page and the Citizen's Election Survival Guide are a few examples.

Another page which exemplifies the scope of the Internet in this year's election is the Jefferson Project page <www.stardot.com/ jefferson/>. This page is dedicated to online campaigning and provides links to candidates across the coun­try. It also provides information on parties , positions and political is­sues. A search on the Jefferson Project page revealed that Hawai 'i 's campaigns are also on the Internet. Information on Senator Inouye, Senator Akaka and mayoral candi­date Jeremy Hanis was available via the Web.

ACU-1 meet features fun, food, frantic pace By Steve Murray Editor-in-chief

Kauai Community College played host to Ho'opili '96- Lead­

ership On-Line, the ACU-I subre­gional conference on Oct. 18- 20.

The conference was a series of workshops to help student leaders more effectively serve the publica­tions, committees and clubs that they represent.

The event opened with a dinner and opening speech by Dr. Sharon Narimatsu, the Vice-Chancellor for Student and Community Affairs for the !}H community colleges. Dr. Narimatsu spoke about the chang­ing technology and how this tech­nology can be used to the benefit of the student leaders.

The event was packed with ac­tivities that began at 6:30a.m. and ended at midnight. Students repre­senting all campuses in the UH sys­tem except West Oahu and repre­sentatives from HPU and BYU­Hawai 'i attended workshops that included publications, ethics and leadership building skills.

The highlight of the conference for most was the buffet dinner that was served on Saturday night. A spread of delicacies that included mahimahi, crab, poki, shrimp and prime rib was consumed at a rate that resulted in everyone was feel­ing a bit heavy after the all the plates were cleared.

Saturday's dinner was con­cluded with a speech by Gregory J. Trifonovitch, a cross-cultural edu­cation specialist and a 24 year vet­eran of the East- West Center. Trifonovitch who was born in Jerusalem and earned his United States citizenship while fighting in

the Korean War, enthralled those in

attendance with hil arious tales of his experiences in the Korean War and in his attempt at learning En­glish. Just minutes after having the crowd howling with laughter, Trifonovitch had them in tears as

he told a story of a child from a bro­ken home who was failing in school.

Fortunately for the students, the conference wasn't all drudgery. With a karaoke room and a series of fun group presentations that showed how networking can be used, the students interacted with each other and built up a high level of camaraderie.

- -At the final meeting of the con-

ference HCC student J-Troi Orias summed up the feeling of many who attended: ''My favorite part of the conference was meeting every­one and the feeling of Ohana that everyone showed."
