Sunday at 5 am, is nor-
mally a peaceful time in
Greenville, but for throe college
students this was not the case.
Troy Yarborough. a Pitt
Community College student,
awoke when he felt a burning
sensation on his arm. r lis nxwn,
at 415 B East 3rd St was on fire.
Yarborough tried to put out
the blaze with a towel. Realizing
the magnitude of the fire, he be-
gan pounding on hisroommatcs'
bedroom doors trying to evacu-
ate the house. All the residents
escaped the house without ma-
jor injuries. Patrick Carroll and
Chip Bartlett an? Yarborough's

niors.
Carroll, an industry and
technology major, said, "We

make sure he got out. Troy ran

Last semester the Media

Eyewash is first-aid treatment
for chemical contamination of

Greg Brown, media advi-
sor, informed the Media Board
that the eyewash systems should
be installed within the next three
or four weeks.
A computer request for The
Last Carolinian was also dis-
cussed at Tuesday's meeting.
The existing computers were
bought in 1987, according to
Greg Brown.
These systems have been
causing probk'ms with the news-
pa perand a request for revamp-
ing the entire system was made.
Currently, only three of the ex-
isting computers are fully oper-
able. Many hmes, the staff a iThe

The board of trustees gave
their approval for the new Cen-
ter for Alcohol and Drug Abuse
on Dec. 6,1991, joining ECU in
the national fight against alco-
hol and drug abuse.
This center will be the
fourth "Center of Excellence"
based in the School of Medi-
cine for addressing Eastern
North Carolina health issues.
Cancer, diabetes and cardio-
vasculardiseasearethe focuses
of the other three.
The formation of the cen-
ter wasannounced by Dr. James
A. Hallock, ECU vice chancel-
lor for heal th sciences and dean
of the medical school.
The creation of the Center
for Alcohol and Drug Abuse
recognizes three important
facts: the magnitude of the al-
cohol and drug abuse problem
in eastern North Carolina and
elsewhere, the significant clini-
cal and scientific expertise
present in and around the uni-
versity, and the need for in-
creased emphasis on the edu-
cation of future health profes-
sionals in the field of substance
abuse Hallock said in a press
release.

There are currently 383
students enrolled at ECU this
spring semester under the sta-
tus of a non-traditional stu-
dent.
A non-traditional student
must be 25 vears or older and
an undergraduate without a
bachelor's degree.
There are a total of 2600
students enrolled at ECU who
were once non-traditional stu-
dents.
An extra performance base
admissions system is set up
for the non-traditional student
who may not have met the re-
quirements.
Students may not declare
their major or enter the gen-
eral college program until they
have reached a 2.2 GPA and
have successfully completed
28 hours.
The U ni versity College be-
ganintheearlyl960sasaadult
night-time student program
through the Division of Con-
tinuing Education.
In 1984 the campus based
program integrated into the
Academic Affairs and became
a funded program.
Since 1984, the non-tradi-
tional students have been able
to attend class during the day
as well as in the evening. Dr.
Robert Denney, Associate Di-
rector for the University Col-
lege said, "The university
wants to be able to accommo-
date them
Denney said the non-tra-
ditional students preferences
in degrees are parallel to the
general college students. Busi-
ness, Nursing, Education and
Industrial Technology are the
most sought-after degrees by
the students.
"Not many non-tradi-
tional students audit classes
Denney said.
He said that they are moti-
vated students who are ready
to receive their degree and
move on.
"As a whole they are very
successful Denney said.
According to a Census Bu-
reau report in 189,3.3 million
college students were over 30
years old, twice as many as 15
years ago. One of every five
students enrolled in college in
1989 were women.
According to Denney, up
until five years ago most non-
traditional students went to
school at night. Now the ma-
jority of students are day stu-
dents and also fulltime.
The National Center for
Education Statistics said43
percent of all students enrolled
in college are over 25 years
old.
It has been estimated that
the enrollment of students
over 25 will increase in 1992 to
the 7 million mark.
With the economy reach-
ing it's lowest level in years
many feel attending college is
a good idea.
"We have seen for a long
time that when the economy
goes dow a lot of people cycle
back into the university said
Kay Holmberg, adult student
program coordinator at Iowa
State University.
Holmberg said that stu-
dents know going back to
school "increases their chances
in the job market" while times
are tough.
However, the economy is
not the only reason students
decide to go back to school.
Many students said they are
making up for the missed op-
portunities and self-improve-
ment are their reasons for com-
ing back.

City blames many
for stampede
(AP) A mayoral report on the
deaths of nine people in a Stampede
at a basketball game spread blame
on police, college officials, organiz-
ers and a crowd that showed "total
disregard for one's fellow men and
women
"A review leads to the ines-
capable conclusion that almost all
ot the individuals involved in the
event demonstrated a Kick of re-
sponsibility said Deputy Mayor
Milton Molten, who prepared the
report released Wednesday.
The deaths occurred when
people trying to get into a Dec. 28
basketball game featuring rap ce-
lebrities surged toward thedoorsof
the gymnasium at the City College
ol New York in Harlem
The report said the Police De-
partment used "highly question-
able" judgment in responding to a
surging crowd
The report also quoted a police
transmission from an unidentified
person at the scene as saving,
"They're not people they're ani-
mals "
This transmission bv an offi-
cer reflects an attitude which ((early
is to be condemned Molten said
The crowd, Mollen said, was
another cause of the tragedy when it
showed "total disregard for one's
fellow men and women" by push-
ing to get in
Mullen's report also concluded:

University needs equal salaries
Much concern has risen in recent weeks
over the issue of salaries for our campus
instructors. Certain employees and former
employees of our University have voiced
their feelings of mistreatment surrounding
their wages.
Cathy Wickern,of the communications
department, filed a discrimination com-
plaint with the University last month after
she learned that some of her "less qualified"
office workers received more pay than her-
self. The complaint did not pan out.
per earlier this week in which she related
her own story of unfair pay.
Hopkins noted that because salaries
are decided partly upon evaluations oi stu-
dents, the method is not fair. It makes sense
that a student that did not do well in a class
would give the instructor a poor evaluation,
regardless of the job performed.
She also pointed out her hiring salary
was significantly lower than those instruc-
tors hired a year later.
In short, the practices used to base the

under a paranoid shroud of isola-
tionism and anti-Hispanic immigra-
tional racism, but not on the lines ot
David Duke.
But at least Pat has a stance and
a conviction that is unwavering. And
even though few will admit it, Ameri-
cans like that quality of unwaverage

one agrees with Pat or no ? there is
no question where he stands

Maxwell's Silver Hammer
By Scott Maxwell
Editorial Columnist
Because trade with Japan
will be a big campaign issue this
year, it behooves us to examine
some of the common misconcep-
tions and lies about that issue.
The most egregious mislead-
ing claim is that the United States
loses billions ot dollars per year in
trade with Japan. But we don't
"lose" billions of dollars per year.
We have a multi-billion-dollar an-
nual trade deficit, which is differ-
ent A trade deficit is not a loss, nor
is a trade surplus a profit. And, for
several reasons, trade imbalances
arc a virtual certainty.
That may require some ex-
planation. First, observe that the
United States does not trade with
Japan. The United States is a politi-
cal entity, not a business, and it
does not engage in business deal-
ings (apart from the occasional il-
legal arms-for-hostages deal, that
is). Same with japan.
So when we talk about the
United States trading with Japan,
we are really talking about a col-
lection of generally unrelated trans-
actions in which U.S. businesses
sell products tu Japanese consum-
ers, and Japanese businesses sell
products to Americans.
At the end of the year, U.S.
businesses will have sold X dol-
lars' worth of goods and services
to the Japanese, and the Japanese
will have sold Y dollars' worth of
goods and services to us. If X is
bigger than Y, then America has a
trade surplus with Japan; if Y is
bigger than X, then America has a
tradedeficit with Japan; if X should
magically happen to equal Y, then
we would have a trade balance
with Japan.
This determination says noth-
ing about profit or loss. In tact, every
single business involved inthecollec-
tionoftransactionsmightturna profit
But if Smith's Carpet Exporters hap-
pened to take a loss, it's probably not
because Miyaawa's Chopstick Co.
turned a profit The same is true tor
companies thai are competing with
each other It IBM loses money while
Japanese computer companies make
money, it's almost certainly not be-
cause American businesses, in aggre-
gate, sold less to Japan than Japanese
businesses, in aggregate, sold to us.
St) why is a trade deficit with
Japan a bad thing? Well, in itself, it
isn't. All else being equal, we should
expect to have a trade deficit with Ja-
pan, if only because there are fewer
Japanese consumers than there are
American consumers If trade were
"perfect" ? that is, if every Japanese
consumer bought one of everything
made in America, and every Ameri-
can reciprocated ? there would be
more American buyers than Japanese
buyers, so we would still have a trade
deficit with Japan, and so what?
As it happens, there are other
reasons we should expect to run a
trade deficit with lapan and other
countries that are smaller than the
United States. America is a big mar-
ket, oneof the biggest in the world, so
American businesses tend to sell to
other Americans. (If you must have a
number, nearly 90 percent of
America's sales go to Americans.)
They can get rich selling exclusively
to a domestic market.
But a Japanese businessman
who sells only to a domestic market
has a much smaller consumer base. If
he wants to make more money, he's
got to look for bigger markets, and
we're one of thp biggest (if not the
biggest). In short, small countries have
a greater incentive to export than big
countries, precisely because their do-
mestic markets are smaller.
So it trade deficits are no cause
tor alarm, why is there such a fuss
over them1 Most ot the fuss appears to
be generated by politicians, and most
ot them point to Amencancarcompa-
niesas the primary victims ot Japan's
unfairness So let's talk cars.
American car manufacturers
claim that the lap.ineSG are unfair trad-
ing partners; like any good lie, this
one has an element of truth. Tlv Japa-
nese government has imposed some
trade restrictions and tariffsthat ought
to be lifted
While tariff's are a factor, the big
reason thejapanesedon't buy Ameri-
can cars is that, like most Americans,
they think Japanese cars are better.
Worse yet, American car companies
haven't even tried some obvious and
fairly low approachesthat would
undoubtedly boost their overseas
sales. 1 ask you: would American con-
sumers buy Japanese cars if the steer-
ing wheels were on the wrong side
and the cars were painted in colors
they found unattractive? Hell, no,and
no one would fault them for it, either.
Yet American car companies
think it's unfair of the Japanese not to
buy American imports that have the
steering wheels on the wrong side
and are painted in colorsthat the Japa-
nese find unattractive.
Yeah, those Japanese are pretty
unfair, all right.
All in all, I think the criticism of
Japan's trading practices results from
a mixture of political demagoguery
and honest misunderstanding, with
only a tiny pinch of truth. Just remem-
ber, as the cam paign heats up, to sepa-
rate the rhetoric and the mistakes from
the facts
By Dr. Jeffrey Williams
Special to the Last Carolinian
(Editor's note ? The following
column concerns Dr. Stanley Fish and
his recent political correctness debate
on campus.
The issue will be discussed at a
forum Monday For more informa-
tion see the related news story.
This column will be run in two
parts, the second of which will be
printed in Tuesday's paper.)
To hark back to last semester and
a letter to the editor in the Dec. 10
issue, I find it a slightly twisted irony
that Dr. Steven Mandelker waves the
banner of free speech and then at-
tempts to say that Stanley Fish should
not have been supported to speak here
on Nov. 21. He imputes that Fish, or
rather "people like Fish wish to "at-
tack the fundamental freedoms of
Americans The odd thing about
Mandelker's letter is that he doesn't
address any of the issues that Fish
raised in his talk here or in his work in
general in making this claim
Evidently, as far as I can tell, he
dravs some of his conclusions from
Fish's title, 'There's no such thing as
free speech, and it'sagood thing too.
Admittedly a provocative title, but if
Mandelker had bothered actually to
attend Fish's entire talk he would have
found out that Fish's point was not
quite so shocking.
If I got it right, Fish's point was
Student voices

University
discrimination
To the Editor:
In Jeff Becker's article "Profes-
sor Charges Discrimination" (Jan. 14,
1992), we learned that discrimination
is still alive and well even here at
ECU. I read the article with interest,
concern and disbelief. So call me na-
ive, but 1 gave the state of North
Carolina and this university far more
credit than they have earned.
Mr. Becker obviously did quite
a bit of digging in order to come up
with the numbers he presented. This
is not to imply that these numbers
aren't accurate, but what about the
rest of the story?
Obviously there is discrimina-
tion in the way male and female fac-
ulty are compensated. Mary Ann
Rose, the chancellor's assistant and
director of Equal Employment Op-
portunity may hesitate to say that it's
across the board discrimination, but
that speech is always constrained by
the community one is located in and
by the protocols of that community.
Thus, it is never absolutely "free' and
in fact that word has very little mean-
ing. Arguable perhaps, but not Un-
American, as Mandelker dubiously
imputes. A slightly different way to
put this is if Mandelker says he ad-
heres to the ideal of free speech but
denies funding for Fish's talk (the
normal and accepted practice to set
up such a talk), he is denying Fish the
normal channel to practice his right of
speech and thus his purported ideal
isn't worth very much.
Fish's argument was in keeping
with his generally pragmatic position
? a position that is very much de-
bated ? that claims that principles (in
law as well as in philosophy or in
theory) don't really govern practice.
Instead, they are only projections de-
rived from practice (law is what a
judge does, not what legal principles
apply; by the same token, in literary
criticism, criticism is what a critic docs,
and is not governed by what theory he
is using i Now, as a professor of liter-
ary theory, 1 have some serious objec
tions to this position, and I think with-
out too much presumptuvn tha-
Mandelker would as well, but only b
reading Fish, by hearing him, by care-
fully sorting through his arguments
win we justly and reasonably maki
those objections.
Mandelker makes no effort to do
this. So Mandelker is irresponsible to
imply that Fish, or, as he vaguelv puts
it, "people like Fish wish "to attack
the fundamental freedoms of
Americans.
How does Mandelker then pro-
ceed?
He goes on to make vast generali-
zations about Fish's "method of op-
eration" ? again, without citing
Fish and I suspect without ever hav-
ing read a word of his work ? (a
method which) has been widely re-
ported by newspapers such as the
New York Times" and so on
Let's take a look at this. As the
venerable Richard McKeon was wont
to thunder at students, "What is the
evidence?" "Widely reported?" Isn't
this kind of vague and insubstantial?
Would Mandelker accept such a
phrase in an argument submitted to
him for a class paper1 What a student
has heard to be "widely reported"
about Kant? And while the 'Times is
a respectable paper, this does not teen
a very scholarly way to proceed, to
depend entirely on newspapers for
such charges

Letters to the Editor
whatdootherfaculty members, male
and female, have to say on this is-
sue? Why did men average S6,787
more in earnings than women in
1990? Can someone explain why at
the level of lecturer men averaged
over $2,000 more than women? Why
the lack of consistency?
I've had male and female pro-
fessors, associate professors and lec-
turers for a variety of courses here at
East Carolina. The fact that some
were male and some were female
had nothing to do with their ability
to teach.
Rose's statement that some
people can just negotiate better than
others seems to be a poor attempt at
rationalization. If it does boil down
to negotiation, are we to believe that
the two newly hired male lecturers
just happened to negotiate identical
contracts? Rose seems not to be
searching for discrimination even as
it is handed to her. She should stop
making excuses and tighten her fo-
cus on the discrepancy in male and
female salaries. Or is it an adminis-
trative thing that the rest of us just
wouldn't understand?
What happened to fairness? I

In 1990, Americans felt the im-
pact of the legendary alliance of
Anthrax and I'ublic Enemy. 1 low-
ever, even before this new wave of
entertainment swept over America,
another band across the world was
tumingouttherevolutionaiy lunj
in early 1987.
The band is Urban Dance
Squad, who for years has been
breaking the hi triers bet ween many
different types of music. Audiera es
flock to hear their fusion of rock,
rap, metal, soul and funk.
According to Arista records.
Urban Dance Squad was originally
a temporary side project for mem-
bers D.J.D.N. A Kudeby,Si,Tres
Manos and Magic Stick. In
each had left his own band k r what
they thought was a one-time gig in
Amsterdam. However, that per-
formance unexpectedly attracted
heavy media and large numbers of
record company executives. Only
after all the attention they gener-
ated with their first gig did the mu-
sicians realize what they had
stumbled onto and decide to stay
together.
The next obvious step was to
record an album. Consequently, a
mere two years later, their debut.
Mental Floss for the Gbbe, was bom.
It received rave reviews from the
public and the media.
Spin magazine described Ur-
ban IDance Squad's sound as "men-

University needs equal salaries
Much concern has risen in recent weeks
over the issue of salaries tor our campus
instructors. Certain employees and former
employees oi our University have voiced
their feelings of mistreatment surrounding
their wages
Cathy VVickern,ol thecommunications
department, filed a discrimination com-
plaint with the University last month after
she learned that some of her "less qualified"

her own story of unfair pas-
Hopkins noted that because salaries
are dec ided partly upon evaluations ol stu-
dents, the method is not fair It makes sense
that a student that did not do well in .1 class
would give the ins t rut lor 1 poor evaluation,
regardless of the job performed.
She also pointed out her hiring salary

is a trade surplus .i profit And, for
several rea soi tradi m ilan? es

That m.iv require some ex-
planation First, observe that the
United States does not trade with
la pan. The United States is a politi-
cal entity, not a business, ,md it
does not engage m business deal-
ings (apart from the occasional il-
legal arms-tor-hostages deal, that
is) Same with lapan
So when we talk about the
United States trading with lapan,
we are reallv talking about a col-
lection of generally unrelated trans-
actions in which U 8. businesses
sell products to Japanese consum-
ers, and apanise businesses sell
products to Americans
At the end of the year, U.S.
businesses will have sold X dol-
lars' worth of goods and services
to the Japanese, and the Japanese
will nave sold Y dollars' worth of
goods and services to us If X is
bigger than Y, then America has ,1
trade surplus with lapan, if Y is
bigger than X, then America has a
tradedeficit with Japan, if X should
magically happen to equal Y, then
we would have a trade balance
with Japan.
This determination says noth-
ir loss. In la l e t r

Cause Amciii i isincs es -i aggre-
gate, sold less to lapan than lapanese
businesses, in aggregate sold to us
Si) why is a trade deficit with
lapan a bad tl I g? Wi II in itself, it
isn't All else being equal, we should
expect to have a trade deficit with la-
pan, if onlv because there are fewer
Japanese consumers than there .ire
American consumers It trade were
"perfect" - that is, it every lapanese
consumer bought one ol everything
made in America, and every Ameri-
can reciprocated there would be
more American buyers than lapanese
buvers, so we would still have a trade
deficit with lapan, and so wh.it1
As it happens, there are other
reasons we should expect to run a
trade deficit with lapan and other
countries that are smaller than the
United States America is a big mar
ket, oneot the biggest m the world, so
American businesses tend to sell to
other Americans (If vou must have a
number, nearly ull percent ol
America's sales go to Americans.)
They can get rich selling exclusively
to a domestic market
But a Japanese businessman
who sells onlv to a domestic market
has a much smaller consumer base. It
he wants to make more money, he's
got to look for bigger markets, and
we're one of thf biggest (if not the
biggest). In short, small countries have
a greater incentive to export than big

While ta nils are a factor, the big

they think lapanese (irs arc better
Worse vet, American car companies
haven't even tried some obvious and

1 eah, those lapanese are prettv

a mixture of political demagoguery

To hark back to last semester and

that Dr Steven Mandelker waves the

tempts to s,iv that Stanley Fish should
not have been supported to speak here

rather "people like Fish wish to "at-

discrimination
lo the Fditor
In left Becker's article "Profes-
sor Charges Discrimination" (Jn-14.
1992), we learned that discrimination
is still alive and well even here at
ECU. I read the article with interest,
concern and disbelief So call me na-
ive, but I gave the state ot North
Carolina and this university tar more
credit than they have earned
Mr. Becker obviously did quite
a bit oi digging in order to come up
with the numbers he presented This
is not to imply that these numbers
aren't accurate, but what about the
rest of the story?
Obviously there is discrimina-
tion in the way male and female fac-
ulty arc compensated Mary Ann
Rose, the chancellor's assistant and
director of Hqual Employment Op-
portunity may hesitate to sav that it's
across the board discrimination, but
that speech is always constrained by
the community one is located in and
bv the protocols of that community
Thus, it is never absolutely "free' and
in fact that word has very little mean-
ing. Arguable perhaps, but not Un-
American, as Mandelker dubiously
imputes. A slightly ditterent wav to
put this is if Mandelker says he ad-
heres to the ideal of free speech but
denies funding tor Fish's talk (the
normal and accepted practice to set
up such a talk, he is denying Fish the
normal channel to practice his right of
spevth and thus his purported ideal
isn't worth very much
Fish's argument was in keeping
with his generally pragmatic position
? a position that is very much de-
bated ? that claimsthat principles (in
law as well as in philosophy or in
theory) don't really govern practice.
Instead, they are only projections de-
rived from practice (law is what a
judge does, not what legal principles
apply, by the same token, in literary
criticism, criticism is what a critic does,
and is not governed bv what theory he

I've had male and female pro

East Carolina The fact that some
were male and some were female
had nothing to do w ith their ability
to teach.
Rote's statement that some
people can just negotiate better than
others seems to be a pmr attempt at
rationalization It it does boil down
to negotiation, are we to believe that
the two newly hired male lecturers
just happened to negotiate identical
contracts? Rose seems not to be
searching tor discrimination even as
it is handed to her She should stop
making excuses and tighten her fo-

fusion
By Pamela Oliver
Staff Writer
In 1990, Americans felt the im-
ptd of the legendary alliance of
Anthrax and Public Enemy. How-
es or, even before this new wave of
en tert.t inmen t swept over America,
another band across the world was
turningout the revolutionary sound
tn early 1987.
The band is Urban Dance
Squad, who for years has been
breaking the barriers between many
different typesofmusic. Audiences
Bock to hear their fusion of rock,
rap, metal, soul and funk.
According to Arista avords,
Urban Dance Squad was originally
a temporary side project for mem-
bers D.J.D.N. A Rudeboy, Sil, Tres
Manos and Magic Stick. In 1987,
each had left his own band for what
they thought was a one-time gig in
Amsterdam. However, that per-
formance unexpectedly attracted
heavy media and large numbers of
rocord company executives. Only
after all the attention they gener-
ated with their first gig did the mu-
sicians realize what they had
stumbled onto and decide to stay
together.
The next obvious step was to
record an album. Consequently, a
mere two years later, their debut.
Mental Floss for the Gbbe, was bom.
It received rave reviews from the
public and the media.
Spin magazine described Ur-
ban Dance Squad's sound as "men-
