Fourth Literary Homecoming
held at Joyner over the weekend
Various authors
participate in event

STAFF WRITER
The fourth Eastern North
Carolina Literary Homecom-
ing took place this weekend at
ECU Ts Joyner Library.
The event was focused
around oCreating Story out of
Family and History ? and featured
eight authors from different
parts of eastern North Carolina.
Friday evening featured
authors Alice McGill and Phil-
lip Gerard.
McGill, a professional
storyteller, entertained the
audience first with stories
about growing up in the
rural, small southern town
of Scotland Neck, N.C.
McGill told the audience
of her large family and how
she attended school at a four-
room schoolhouse, as well as
her realization of her ability to
read naturally without know-
ing the order of the letters.
McGill also told the audi-
ence about how hard it was for
her during college.
She recalled coming home

say, oIf you aren't gone back to
school in the morning, you won't

McGill spoke about encour-
agement from her father who
made her realize if she did not

community of Scotland Neck,
the people were always gener-
ous, giving and real and those
are all values she admires.

experiences related to her com-

pick cotton the rest of her life.
Throughout her speech, she

Where did all of
you come from?
My take on admissions
YAZID FINN
OPINION WRITER
Normally I do not stray from my set opinion
topics: religious interests, U.S. foreign policy or
diversity on campus, as sometimes, I really don Tt
know what to talk about. Well currently diversity
is thriving with Hate Week, the CIA is a terrorist
organization as labeled by Iran and I have not seen
Brother Micah in a few weeks. Here is my attempt
at a more campus centered article.
How about that influx of freshmen enrolled
at ECU? If you have been living under a rock and
still wonder why the Subway lines have become
longer, here is the answer. An amazing number of
Just over 4,000 first-year students have joined our
school, even while ECU has publically stated they
did not change the admission standards. Maybe
times have changed and kids these days want to
attend our classes for the prestigious degree instead
of alcoholism!
Problems have arisen with our new figures
in all respects. Minor instances have been seen T
in cases of ECU Football tickets or parking on
campus, to the.other side of the spectrum in regards
to overcrowding in classes or the over booking of
freshmen to live on campus. I am by no means fault-
ing Campus Living in regards to the problems they
have faced this year, as I realize they are doing their
best to work with the resources they have.
I am not inclined to believe ECU Ts statement
in regards to our growing numbers as simply a
chance happening. Last year I had the chance to sit
down with a high ranking facility member of this
university, and our conversation turned to enroll-
ment. NCSU ranks first in the state with about
30,000 students, UNC Chapel Hill a close second
with 27,000 students. East Carolina at the time
had figures listing roughly 24,000 undergraduate .
and graduate students. These numbers of course
are pretty impressive for those with investments
in the college.
UNC Charlotte however, threatened our
third place holdings, with their 22,000 students
last year and a projected increase that would shift
East Carolina to fourth place. If I were a member
of this university Ts Board of Trustees, this would
not be a pleasing thought. That is why when I hear
ECU boasting of its olargest enrollment yet, T I
begin to wonder.
Whose interests did the university have in mind
during admissions this year: The 25,000 students
now attending our school or twelve members of a
council we never see?

Getting involved
The importance of participation on
campus
JESSICA DUNLOW
OPINION WRITER
There is a large population of students on
campus that came to ECU without knowing
more than two people here. Granted, there
are many who are from Greenville, and may
have joined dozens of their former classmates
here in Pirate Country.. No matter how many
people you know coming into college, you are
going to leave knowing so many more and
you are going to have so many experiences
that will influence who you are and who you
become.
This is probably the most. overly need
cliché in the history of college books, movies
and stories. However, it is an important
thing to remember. There are so many ways
to become part of ECU and not just attend
college here. For instance, if you are living
on campus, this is the best way to meet new
people. Even just saying ohey ? in the bath-
room is a great way to start.
Stephen Shaheen, an ECU Ambassador,
EC Scholar, and pre-med senior thinks that,
oOn campus involvement, through clubs and
T other university-related activities, is essential
to creating a well balanced personality and
resume. In addition, it gives great opportuni-
ties to make new friends, pick up new hobbies,
and expand your horizons, both academically
and socially. ?
I know how corny this all sounds, but
there are so many ways to get involved. The
ECU Greek system is amazing; there are even
Greek organizations within specific majors!
You can get involved through Healthy Pirates;
an organization geared toward health and
nutrition majors, but is open for everyone.
Club sports are a great way to share a love
for soccer, softball, basketball, lacrosse and
many more.
There are university organizations like
the Student Government Association that can
cultivate leadership skills and business savvy.
The ECU Ambassadors offer chances to work

OPINION WRITER
I Tve read a lot of Rants in this newspaper about
the amount of noise, clutter and general inconve-
nience from all the construction going on around
campus. I too have muttered under my breath
about having to walk out of my way to get around
a construction barrier...but I wonder how many of
us, when were sitting in our nice air-conditioned
classrooms and complaining about all the noise
the guys working on the roof are making, even
give a thought to how those guys feels up there
in 90-plus degree heat, just working hard, trying
to keep that roof from crashing in on our heads
someday. Probably not that many.
From changing light bulbs, emptying trashcans
and unstopping toilets to digging ditches, laying
pipe and putting new roofs on buildings, the men
and women of Facilities Services keep this school
running and we just take them for granted.
There isn Tt a fellow on this campus, myself
included, who hasn't experienced poor aim in the
bathroom from time to time (I hope this isn Tt an
issue for the ladies). We don Tt have the where-
withal to wrap a wad of toilet paper around our
hand and wipe it up, and thanks to those too lazy
to even consider that to begin with, it Ts probably .
because there Ts evidence another lousy shot was,
there before us. We just correctly assume some-
one is going to come along behind us and clean
up our filth.
In the wintertime after a freezing rain, it Ts not
the salt fairies that come along to clean off the
sidewalks and steps so we don Tt bruise our buns...
or worse. A human being was out there in the
freezing cold, breaking his back to keep us from
_ breaking ours.
We need to think about these things the next
time we're griping. "
The men and women of Facilities Services
provide a clean environment for us around our
campus and in our buildings; they keep us cool
when it Ts hot out and warm when it Ts cold; they
keep us safe from faulty wiring, busted pipes and
falling plaster.
Is it too much to ask to say thanks? I Tm sure
they don Tt expect it, but I bet they'd appreciate
hearing it once in a while instead of a lot of com-
plaining.

One nation,
under debt
Living on credit: The American way
JUSTIN SUMMERS
OPINION WRITER
For the first time in almost a year, I made siz-
able payments toward my credit card bill, and it Ts
an experience I'd like to share. You see it all began
last year around the beginning of the semester.
Like you I was a poor college student. trying to
pay for books, and like every other college student
who has a name and a social security number, I was
offered a line of credit. oWow, ? I thought, oSome-
one wants to give me free money, and all I have to
do is pay them back. ? Sure, I thought I'd try this
novel thing; after all this is America and everyone
is living off credit.
My credit card experience was going great;
I was spending money erratically, making the
minimum payments and buying things I never
would have if I had used cash. However, it wasn Tt
long before I realized what I had gotten myself
into. You see, about four payment periods in, I
defaulted on my 0% agreed interest rate due to
a late payment, and Bank of America slapped
me with an impossibly high 33% interest rate.
Needless to say, after this I was paying far too
much a month in interest, and honesty it was
getting hard to sleep. By simply knocking off the
minimum each month and never really making
any substantial difference on the bottom line, I
managed to stay in debt for over a year. This year
though, I finally had the will and the way to just
pay it all off. My friends, it was a quasi-liberat-
ing experience.
After leaving the bank with much lighter
pockets, my conscience felt a little lightér
as well; however, the taste in my mouth was
still unpleasant. Who could feel good about
giving their hard-earned money to a bank
that charges $30 for overcharging 50 cents,
or defaults to 33% interest for paying a bill
a day late? My relatively short time in debt
has made me think: how many other people
were in.my shoes? How many Americans are
paying off the minimum and missing sleep
because of it?
After looking into it a little, the numbers I
found were quite shocking. According to some
estimates, the average American is $8000 in
debt. 78% of college students have at least
one credit card and 32% of them have four or
more. Now, it is also stated that the majority
of college students use their cards responsibly
and make payments on time and often carry
no balance. However, I think it is safe to say
that there is a pretty substantial percentage of
college students who aren Tt doing so and are
probably majoring in credit card debt.
Now a lot of people say that bad credit is
better than no credit at all, and this may be
true. I think that in this day and age estab-
lishing some credit is a necessary thing, just
do so carefully and know the consequences.
I Tm not much for giving advice on topics I
admittedly could use help on myself, so I'll
let someone else do it. | saw a bumper sticker
somewhere that said it quite right, and I think
it would be a suitable line to go out on; oDebt
is normal, be weird. ?

Horoscopes
Aries
Extra chores at home eat up most
of your spare time. Don Tt complain;
do what you always do. Get the
family to help.
Taurus
Don Tt feel sad if somebody you
counted upon cannot come
through. Turn to another person or
vendor and get what you need from -
them. It Ts a big world out there.
Gemini :
You're running into opposition, but
that Ts to be expected. That Ts one
of the reasons you're not supposed
to tell anybody yet. Make it easier
on yourself.
Cancer
Changes are under way, and quick
action must be taken. If you don Tt
know what you're going to do, start

overdue, and worse, everybody Ts
waiting for. it. They did not forget.

Virgo
With your newly broadened
perspective, you see new career .
options. Don't take action yet, but
do take copious notes.
Libra
If you can Tt say something nice,
don't say anything at all. Later, when
relaxing with friends, don Tt make a
big deal of the conflict. The person
you found so annoying could turn
out to be a good friend.
Scorpio
Ifyou really have to go, proceed with
caution. The trip will be plagued by
vagaries and people who can Tt
make decisions. Drive your own car,
and watch out for ditzes in traffic.
Sagittarius
Figure out how much .you've
got and what you can afford to
spend. Money's burning a hole in
your pocket. Don Tt let it get out of
control.
Capricorn
A friend who's in school can help
you decide on your next course of
action. A very obnoxious competitor
helps you get moving on it.
Aquarius
Turn down an invitation from
friends. You won't have the time.
Your workload is about to increase
quite dramatically. Don Tt schedule
anything else.
Pisces
There is one person who under-
stands pretty well. Maybe more
than one. At any rate, these are
the folks you want to be with
tonight. Even a phone call will work.

If you're looking for a place
to relax with friends or maybe
a dessert to satisfy your sweet
tooth, look no further than
Greenville Ts newest downtown
attraction, Hookah Haze.
The Hookah Haze Café and
Bar opened its doors Sept. 8
and currently stands alone as
Greenville Ts only hookah smok- ,
ing facility.
Though the establishment
has been open for only three
~ weeks many students have,
already designated it as one of
their favorite places to hang out.
Senior exercise physiology
major Mary Casacalenda heard
about the café from a friend.
oT went the first week it
opened and had a good time.
It Ts something different and it
was good to just be able to hang
out ina chill environment, T said
Casacalenda.
Sophomore biochemistry
major Timothy Shrader works
at the café and feels the calm
atmosphere is one of its most
appealing qualities.
oI love being here. It Ts a
relaxed atmosphere with great
music, ? said Shrader.
For those visiting the
bar to smoke, Hookah Haze
offers a variety of regular
and premium tobacco fla-
vors for an affordable price.
Popular tobacco flavors to
the bar include mango, orange,
grape, strawberry, peach, man-
darin, apricot, banana, lemon,
triple apple and more.
Regular flavors are $8, pre-
mium flavors are $10 and the
oHookah Haze exclusive triple

is $12.
Co-owner Hishar oHash ?

tobacco at his establishment.
oAll of our products are

Bryan eventually took up

under her direction for a year

teach the class herself.
Whitley, who has been teach-
ing belly dancing for 36 years, is
very passionate not only about
the dance, but about the tradition
behind the dance.
Whitley got her start by
dancing in a nightclub in Casa-
blanca, and then lived in a

One of the hardest ruts to get out of is a

a new CD for your car. How can you find great
new inusic without illegally downloading tunes
off the Internet?
Visit Pandora.com and find new music to T

Music Genome Project " a database created by
Tim Westergren, Will Glaser and John Kraft in
2000. The three Stanford graduates identified

ways to create the distinct qualities that make |
music so amazing.
The Web site searches the database to find
music that every listener will love " it even ask
you to rate music as you listen so that the search
evolves as you go.
Pandora is incredibly easy to use " you simply
create an account (it Ts free and you don Tt get a
bunch of emails) and start looking for music.
Searching is effective because the website uses
artists you already like. Type in oThe Roll-

Though the bar is mainly
centered around smoking the

about the pain, where to put the
tattoo or the cost of the tattoo.
oEvery person has an indi-

tattoos, ?. Nobles said. oBut I
think it ultimately comes down
to three different reasons: they
have a need to change them-
selves and their body, as a
memorial to a loved one, or it Ts
Just the cool factor of having a
tattoo. ?
' The tattooing process
begins with a thorough clean-
ing of the area that will be
tattooed. Then, the artist typi-
cally uses a stencil to draw the
tattoo on the skin in pen. After
that, the tattoo artist dpens the
needles in front of the customer
to show that they are unused,
sterile needles. The ink is then
mixed and poured and the tat-
tooing begins. -
When the artist is done
with the tattoo, they will ban-
dage the area so that it does
not become infected. The artist
then throws away the needles
in front of the customer to
show that the needles will not
be reused.
Tattoo prices vary from
parlor to parlor.
Garry Ts Skin Grafix charges
between $100 and $150 per
hour, while Cape. Fear Tattoo
charges based on the size of the
tattoo, the amount of time it
takes to do,it and the experience
- Tattoos like this one give wearers a sense of individuality and can be a sour
level of the artist.
Cape Fear Tattoo is open

DANCING continued from Ad

dance Ts history is that men use
the dance to dance for men, and
women use the dance to dance
for women.
o(Belly dancing] is not a
dance of seduction, but was origi-
nally thought of as a celebration of
life and of women. Its roots come
from the tradition of dancing for
weddings and for the naming of
babies, ? said Whitley.
Whitley's passion for belly °
dancing derives from the fact
that many people have a mis-
conception about belly davon
in general.
oThe traditional attire [for
_ belly dancers] is very demure.
Movements may be sensual
and provocative to us, but belly
dancing involves the entire
body, not just the pelvic area or
abdomen, ? Whitley said.

oWhitley is all about empow-
ering women and being comfort-
able in your own skin. I was very _
shy [at first], ? Bryan said. o[But]
then I got involved in belly danc-
ing and I couldn't be shy. ?
The four- week belly danc-
ing class was offered to students
- every Tuesday from 5:15 p.m. to
6:45 p.m., but the outcome was
not what Bryan expected.
oWe only had about eight
people show up to the class and
we were wondering why the
attendance was so low. We're
hoping to publicize more, [and]
we're hoping to have another
class, ? Bryan said.
Whitley and Bryan both say
Belly dancing, although considered sensual by many, traditionally began as a ritual to celebrate family.
that belly dancing has changed
their lives.
oTm very passionate about
belly. dancing because it has
completely changed my life. It
opened up a whole new world
[to me], ? Whitley said.
Bryan encourages anyone
who is interested to come out
and try the class.
oIf you can look at yourself
in the mirror and like what you
see,,then you can do it. You just
have to jump in there and do it, ?
Bryan said.

begin its second round soon.

Blue lines, face offs, and zam-
bonis are back in Greenville.
The. second annual Purple-
Gold game this past weekend
officially marked the return of
ECU club ice hockey.
The oPurple ? team, who
sported black jerseys, outlasted
the oGold ? squad in a closely .
contested battle, 5-3.
The long offseason likely
contributed to sluggish starts for
each side but both went out firing
at the end of the first period. The
teams combined for four goals in
the last five minutes of play.
The highlight goal of the
game came in the second period
courtesy of senior Mark Linzer,
as he snuck in behind the net and
finished off a wrap around shot
for the oPurple ? team.
After the oGold ? team equal-
ized, Linzer Ts side added two
more goals in the third period to
seal the game for oPurple. ?
Although the match was
competitive, the result was not
the most important thing to take
away from the game.
