President denies rape
The job performance oi University of
Southern Florida President Frank T.
Borkowski was recently questioned after I
star athlete was allowed to continue playing
after being accused of rape.
A report by the Florida Board of Regents
said officialsat the school knew that six women
had reported being harassed, battenl or raped
by athlete Marvin Taylor, but withheld infor-
mation to allow Taylor to continue plaving.
Marvin was the guv who got them to the
NCAA said Billy Newland, managing edi-
tor of the student newspaper. "He was the
best point guard we ever had (and) I think
these (administrators) were gixxi men mak-
ing Kid decisions
Two administrators resign
Two administrators at City College in
New York recently resigned their positions
after a mayor's report partially blamed them
tor the deaths of nine people at a celebrity
basketball game in December.
lean Charles, director of oo-curricular life,
and George McDonald, vice president for
student affairs, both stepped down from their
jobsal the school after the report was released.
The report blamed police, promoters, the
student government association, the crowd,
City College and Citv University for the
stampede that caused the deaths.
Officials offer apology
Western Montana College sent a letter of
apology to Rocky Mountain College and its
basketball team for racial slurs shouted at
black and Native American basketball play-
ers during two separate basketball games.
Witnesses said four or five fans taunted
two black players and two Native American
players from Rocky Mountain's team.
A formal apology has been issued to the
players said Monica Hildreth, a spokesper-
son for Western Montana College
The disruptive fans were not removed
from the game because security officials said
they did not hear them.
MTSU rejects condoms
Officials at Middle Tennessee State Uni-
versity recently rejected a student government
proposal to install condom machines in every
campus residence hall.
Vice President for Student Affairs Robert
LaLance said Health Services will provide
students with condoms if they need them.
"This has nothing to do with being
prudish or backward LaLance aid.
The proposal stated that the condom ma-
chines would provide protection from un-
wanted pregnancy and sexually transmitted
diseases.
"We're going to try to put it through
again said Toby Gilley, speaker for the SGA
Senate. "With AIDS and other sexually
transmitted diseases, l don't see how any
measure could be enough
N.C State student dies
A 21-year-old political science major at
N.C. State died recently of meningitis.
Nicole Nora Johnson planned to go to
law school after she graduated from N.C.
State next year. After this semester, Johnson
would have been only four hours short of
graduating.
"She was a very serious student said
Sanford H. Kessler, Johnson's academic advi-
sor.
The university plans to recognize
Johnson's degree work with a certificate of
scholarship, and Kessler is planning to meet
with school officials to decide whether to
award Johnson her degree posthumously.

Vandals destroy African-American display
By Jeff Becker
SUff Writer
A bulletin board in Jarvis
Hall depicting African- American
awareness was set on fire about 2
a.m. 'Ihursdav, Feb. 20.
The bulletin board, Unrated
in the west wing, displayed the
words"CietTigethertoCelebrate
A frica n- America n A wa reness"
written over black and white
pieces of a jigsaw puzzle. The fire
destroyed about half of the dis-
play before residents were able
to extinguish the flames.
Public Safety has no leads in
the crime.
Kara rermisohn, Jarvis 1 kill
council prosident,constructed the
bulletin hoard and planned to
enter it in a campus-widecontest
sponsored bv the Residence Hall
Association. Permisohn said she
believes the fire was racially
motivated.
"1 think that somebody was
obviously offended with the
bulletin board she said. "1 be-
lieve they took it upon them-
selves to do something about it
According to Brian
Brookshire, resident adviser of
the west wing, bulletin boards
are common targets for vandals.
"It is not uncommon for a
bulletin board to be ripped
down, but a fire is a little differ-
ent Brookshire said. "1 don't
know if racism was the motive,
but it is certainly a possibility.
There is a lack of respect for
property and people in residence
halls '
David Hunter is one of two
African-Americans who live on
the west wing. He said the fire
was a childish act that shows
racism still exists in society.
"Some people don't respect
African-American month or
blacks in general he said.
"In eight years we will be in
the 21st century. The same crap
has been going now for de-
cades
The remains of the bulletin
board have been left on display
by the residence hall staff. Four
copies of the Resident Fduca-
tion Hall Incident Report ex-
plaining the situation have been
stapled to the bulletin board
along with Permisohn's

Exchange programs offer
endless opportunities

By Elizabeth Shimmel
SUff Writer
Many students only dream of
spending part of their college career in
a foreign country or even another state,
but the opportunities for these kindsof
experiences are endless through ECU's
Center for International Programs.
The center offers more than 100
international exchanges around the
world, as well as over 107 national
exchanges.
Many of these exchange programs
require students to pay only their
regular ECU tuition plus the host
school's cost for room and board.
For those willing to pay out-of-
state tuition, there are "endless study
abroad programs said Stephanie
Evancho, Study Abroad National
Student Exchange coordinator.
Three years ago, approximately
five students per semester participated
in the program. Currently, ECU has
about 30 students participating in ex-
changes.
"It isa growing trend in the United
States to study abroad' Evancho said,
and she is hoping this will attract more
students to theexchange opportunities
available at ECU.
Not only do students receive ECU
credits for the courses they take while
they are at another university, but stu-
dents are also given a first-hand look at
cultural and geographic differences
within the United States and around
the world.
One good way to experience these
differencesisby travelingon weekends
or school breaks during the exchange.
ECU student Marjorie Bazluki
spent one year at the University of
Strathclyde in Glasgow, Scotland, and
said that traveling was one of the best
ways for her to leam about that part of
the world.
"During my year in Scotland, I
traveled to many Scottish cities, as well
as to England, Ireland, France, Monaco,
Belgium and Luxembourg, but that
travel is all part of education Bazluki
said.
Most exchange students also say
that learning about themselves is some
of the best education they receive.
"(My) year abroad taught me a
few thingsaboutmyself Bazluki said.
"I learned that I can do things that I
admire when other people do them,
and that I am the determining factor in
what I can achieve
Many students express an interest
in participating in the program, but I
think it is very difficult to be accepted
as an exchange student
Evancho said she wants students
to know the requirements include: a
cumulative 2.5 grade point average,
current full-time enrollment at ECU
and status as a sophomore, junior or
senior at the time of the exchange.
Besides personal growth and an
extensive cultural education, there are

Opinion
Page 4, Tuesday, February 25, 1992
Grading system could be a plus
Last month, North Carolina State Uni-
versity, despite outcries from its student
body, took a step toward joining the ranks
of many colleges across the country which
use a plusminus grading system.
TheNCSU Faculty Senate's Academic
Policy Committee passed resolution in fa-
vor of the proposed grading system which
will allow professors to grade their stu-
dents from A plus to D minus. The reso-
lution will allow students to attain a 4.3
GP A, an average granted by only two other
universities in the country.
Shortly after the decision, the N.C.
State student government passed a resolu-
tion voicing their opposition to the newly
implemented system, citing studies which
show plus minus grading to hurt students
more than help them.
Proponents of a stricter system argued
that the study is flawed providing an inac-
curate picture of the system.
The debate of the plusminus system
on the campus of NCSU should cause our
students and faculty to examine our own
system. Would it prove beneficial for our
campus to follow in the footsteps of NCSU
and adopt a similar system?
Logic would purport that the plus
minus system should neither hurt nor
hinder students. The outcome of the
adoption would simply be a more accurate
description of one's work in a class. The
number of times a student's grade would
be worsened by a minus, would be coun-
terbalanced by the number of times a plus
would help a grade.
It would seem that the only people
who could object to the system are those
who enjoy being lazy in a class but do not
enjoy reaping their justified grade. Those
who should be angered by the plusminus
system's nonexistence are students who
excel in a course, but receive the same
grade as those who produce lesser work.
Regardless of one's position in the ar-
gument, the issue should be discussed. For
too long, this campus has gone without an
effective way to accurately portray the
grades of its students.
Letters to the Editor
Definition of
rape changes
To The Editor.
Mike Tyson's recent 'ape con-
viction stimulates thought about an
alleged phenomenon known as "date
rape" (or "acquaintance rape"). "Date
rape" doesn't refer just to forcibly
compelled acts of intercourse. Ac-
cording to some of those who believe
in date rape, such as the author of the
training manual for Swarthmore's
College Acquaintance Rape Preven-
tion Workshop, "inappropriate innu-
endo" is a form of date rape!
One of the more disturbing fea-
tures of the movement to persuade us
of the existence of this new "crime" is
that you don't even have to think
you've been raped to be a victim of
"date rape According to a typical
piece of radical feminist propaganda,
posted on an office door on the fourth
floor of Brewster Building, most
campus rapes are committed by
someone the victim knows, so she
may think it doesn't count So if this
has happened to you, please report
it
In my opinion, only someone
with a sick mind would want to en-
courage women who don't think
they've been raped (or perhaps ha-
rassed) to accuse men of "rape" (or
"harassment") But that is the mental-
ity of many feminists. Under the guise
of preventing rape they seek to so
widen the definition of rape as to
unfairly stigmatize normal hetero-
sexual interaction. The definition of
"rape" becomes so broad as to be-
come a meaningless rhetorical flour-
ish. Feministsaren't simply interested
in preventinggenuine violence against
women; they wish to exploit occa-
sional acts of violence in order to clai m
universal victimization. Only in this
way can they provide a pseudo-justi-
fication for their demands for prefer-
ential treatment.
The process is by now a familiar
one: First one creates a non-existent
crime, then one asserts that it is com-
' monplace, seeks law to counter it,
demands funding to fight it, and then
claims men have always been respon-
sible for it in the first place. As in most
feminist arguments, illusion and
rhetoric take the place of reality. As-
serting profound insight, their actual
goal is the incitement of antagonism
between the sexes. It's their chief raison
d'etre.
Radical feminists don't want
equality; they want division. They
don't want justice; they want to
criminalize traditional formsof sexual
interaction. They don't want social
harmony, since it's only by creating
d issonance between the sexes that they
can flourish.
They look at life through dirty
spectacles. Consequently, all they see
is dirt.

Visiting Asst. Professor
Newspaper portrays
sexist tendencies
To The Editor:
I would like to say that 1 com-
mend The East Carolinian for equal
treatment of women in your publica-
tion. I would like to, but I cannot.
In the Feb. 18 issue of The East
Carolinian, there appeared The Fear-
less Primary Forecast. I think it is
terrific that you asked the female
mayor of Greenville for her "picks"
for the primary; however, no other
women were asked for their opinions
concerning the political race. If
Greenville's mayor was a male, you
would not have had any women rep-
resented in this political pick "contest
You could have asked a female news
caster, a female in the political science
department (yes, there are some), or
even a female from your own staff.
You have six women staff members
listed on your editorial page, yet it
seems that you do not value their
opinions much. If you don't respect
the women on your staff, it is hard to
believe that you value the opinions of
any of the women here at ECU. You
asked two editorial columnists for
their opinions, and you even asked
your director of advertising for his
political picks, but yet you did not ask
your female news editor for her opin-
ion, nor did you ask any of the other
female members of your staff for their
political picks.
I assume that your primary
forecast was a take-off of your Fearless
Football Forecast; no women were in-
cluded in that contest either. It seems
that you are selling women short on
this campus and in general. "You've
come a long way" at The East Carolin-
ian . Since the fall of last year you have
gone from having one or two women
in your staff to having a significant
number working for your paper. They
are significant in number, make them
significant in stature. If you showed
more respect to the women of your
staff, you would be making a good
start toward greater equality for
women in general. Come on Mr. Edi-
tor, the candidates may all be males,
but there are millions of women vot-
ers out there, thousands of women
politicians and government officials,
and over 7,000 women students on
thiscampus. They all need their voices
heard. Let your female staff members
be assets to your editorial content, not
just names listed on your editorial
page!

(Editor's note ? The editor apolo-
gizes for the careless oversight which has
justly angered Ms. Ray and probably many
other students on campus. Thanks to Ms.
Ray's (andother's) observations, this news-
paper will in the future concern itself with
the views of a more mixed-gender compos-
ite.)
Appeals board
defends decision
To The Editor:
This letter is written in response
to Richard ParaveUa's recent letter to
the editor concerning the Citations Ap-
peals Board. The Citations Appeals
Board reviewed Mr. ParaveUa's case
and ruled to uphold the traffic ticket.
Mr. Paravella stated in his letter
that hedid not intend to parkatMinges,
yet that is what he did when he left his
vehicle in the parking lot and went
inside the building. Mr. Paravella fur-
ther stated that he does not park on
campus, yet the traffic office has record
of a previous unregistered vehicle ticket
in his name.
Mr. Paravella referred to this
board as robots. The board members
took the time and effort, as we do with
all traffic appeals, to review Mr.
ParaveUa's case and his written appeal
statement The board further researched
traffic files to see if this incident was his
first unregistered vehicle offense. The
actions of the board in regard to Mr.
ParaveUa's case can hardly be charac-
terized as an automatic rubber stamp of
approval by robots.
Where do you draw the line be-
tween having to purchase a $70 parking
sticker and abusing the system for quick
stops on campus?

You'll Get Nothing and Like It
Buchanan becomes democratic ally
Bully Boy bites again.
Editorial columnists have en-
joyed many good laughs at George
Bush'searlier scoff at beingchallenged
by "some columnist" now that the
president finds his campaign jeopar-
dized by a mere political writer. Pat
Buchanan's impressive showing of 37
percent in New Hampshire is still be-
ing dismissed by many Bush advo-
cates, but the threat is real.
The situation can be depicted
quite honestly by a metaphor for a no-
win situation: the president has a mean
little bulldog with a tight-jaw grip on
his ankle ? if he kicks the animal he'll
lose face, and if he ignores it, his leg
will bleed. There is nothing that Bush's
strategists can do to campaign their
way out of it.
Buchanan won't win the Re-
publican seat with such percentages,
but now much attention is focusing
on what he will do to the party. Dan
Quayle has been begging Republicans
to not be so hasty in "sending the
president a message and on
Brinkley's show George Will plainly
asked Buchanan if he realized that he
was dividing the Republican party.
Here I have to confess of my
own misdeeds. Ever since Buchanan
appeared as a candidate with his anti-
Bush brigade, I've been pushing him
on my Republican friends. Secretly, I
hoped that Bush'screw would let loose
their infamous mud-slinging on the
willing Buchanan, angers would be
charged, spiteful votes cast, and
meanwhile my candidate (still Bill
Clinton) would slip past the furor and
head to the White House. I should
have known those wily Republicans
would eventually have caught on,
dam it.
Bush has been smart to not kick
the dog and stir up the pack, but he
By
Parker
Editorial
Columnist
cannot ignore the mutt and look good
either. Every sting Buchanan delivers
makes Bush shaky, and remember, he
still hasn't personally recovered from
that "wimp" image of four years ago
that made him take cheap shots at
Dan Rather. Instead of rebuking
Buchanan (or to use the now-trendy
word, "rebuff" as popularized by
George himself). Bush turns vehement
each time to those fall guys, "the
Democratic Congress, "and with each
avoidance, Buchanan capitalizes.
The Democrats couldn't have a
better hitman on their team. Years of
editorial work have honed Buchanan's
argumentative skills far beyond those
of the incumbent's team. For Bush to
debate Buchanan would be suicide.
Bully Boy is an excellent rhetorician-
he can turn any presidential state-
ment around to its weak side and uses
scathing yet clever analogies such as
the "King George" device to great
function.
So far the best Bush has offered
to deter the beast is to sick Dan Quayle
on him.
The best analogy I can give for
that is to say it's like sicking Dan
Quayle on Pat Buchanan.
So Bush finds himself in a
strange position, being attacked from
within. The IranContra fiasco was
easier to shake than this.
What it appears he will do was
foreshadowed last week when John
Frohnmayer was dismissed. Since the
National Endowment of the Arts made
The Right Side
such a good conservative target, Bj'r
canned its head to give Buch hi ?
less firepower Now one wonders
what other changes and dismissals
the Bully will initiate through Bush
It's likely Buchanan will p ?
each open nerve to see where Bush
will flinch, asserting control -
outside. The end result mav be .??
Bush denied early in the year ?-?
possibility of ol' James Dar ?

ning mate. Wouldn't that be a hoot
If, as some suggest, Buchanan i1- re-
ally running for office in then he
might try to force his way in that wa
as well. This would give Bush a
chance to consolidate a segmentirn
party, and probably make his lire
miserable as well, but hey, he war.t

The actual idea of Buchanara

The Great Wall of America would
likely be erected, dividing the an-

a vast distance between the public
and the executive office that plagues
Bush now. Unless the President de-
vises some way out of his vicious
circle. Democratic candidates will
probably have ample time to spread
their ideas and find what works for
voters.
In the meantime, it will be ho

Pitzer too inexperienced for council
"Oh Golly! Someone help us
poor, weak students. We're being per-
secuted by the city under a policy of
containment
I'm really not sure what sec-
tion of the city Mr. Patrick Pitzer
lives in, but in mine I have yet to see
a Nazi-Storm Trooper attack inno-
cent little college pupils for contain-
ment purposes. What exactly is this
horrible relationship between the city
and the student body all about? Is it
the fact that we students aren't al-
lowed to blare insipid music until 4
a.m. waking everyone nearby and
not allowing them sleep?
Or could it be that we students
aren't allowed room around down-
town vomiting, urinating and beat-
ing on everything we see while in the
midst of alcohol and drug inebria-
tion? Maybe it's the third reich police
that are constantly abusing and ar-
resting innocent students who are
simply trying to acquire a whole-
someeducation. Yes, the list could go
on and on whah!
These cries from certain stu-
dents are really annoying to those of
us who are trying to gain an educa-
tion in four years or less. College is
neither meant to be an academically
stringent prison nor is it meant to be
some drunken free for all with classes
playing a minor part. I seriously
doubt the conversations during city
council meetings are along the lines
of let's see what else we can do to
piss the students off
There are reasons that these so
called "Policies of Containment" ex-
ist. We wonderful students have

like normal, civil human beings and
thus have to follow mandated guide-
lines because of it.
The idea of Pitzer being a part
of the city council is completely ab-
surd; it's rather just another asinine
move by a student trying to make a
martyr out of himself for a completely
ridiculous cause. The city has done
nothing unfair. Things are fine
enough as they are without some stu-
dent, still wet behind the ears, jump-
ing into a situation in which at best he
could only further aggravate the city
council with inane requests from his
so called "student-body
It would be nice to believe that
a sophomore student is standing up
for his fellow classmates against an
evil empire, but the fact remains that
Pitzer-aged students are not
wisdomatic enough to help make de-
cisions that affect the broad-range of
student diversity that Greenville
contains. If that was the case, presi-
dents, senators, governors, etc
would not have age requirements t hat
have to be met. Sure this type of
student representation is on a differ-
ent scale than the state and federal
level, but still the city council is not
the forum for some bleeding-heart to
fight for his cause (which is a cause
that is not of wide-scale conviction).
The key word is student. We as
students have not finished learning;
therefore we can't possibly know all
we need to know to posses a strong
fundamental base that is essential in
making decisions whose ramifica-
tions affect several thousand people
Yet there are instances in which
younger people are incredibly intel-
ligent and make highly advanced
progress in all sorts of fields includ-
ing politics. And surely not to sav
Pitzer is a bonehead, but if this sort ot
political situation was his natural
forte then he would not need to be a
political science student today
The point being, Pitzer ha yet
to finish paying his dues and until
that time comes, his place, as is oth-
ers, is in the classroom learning. Stu-
dents should be represented and
treated fairly, but until the student
becomes the teacher, the tail is not
going to wag the dog. The thoughts
are heard around campus "What
would happen if Patrick Pitzer did
win the election and was placed on
city council?" The easiest answer
would be that he would wake-up
I whole-heartedlv believe that
the students of ECU are rational and
intelligent people who are not about
to go along with the implementation
of such a travesty.
The segment that follows Pitzer
is quite a minority. Contrary to popu-
lar belief, the liberal segment of ECL
is not that big, it simply is overtly
noisy. The idea of Pitzer winning is
completely preposterous, thus when

President of senior class changes mind on gift
I KI MS Prkss
Retracting a proposal to con-
struct a time capsule, Senior Class
President Thomas Allen says the
wooded "mall" area of the campus
should be razed to make room for
a red mall, complete with a Taco
(iongand aSpenser'sChecsy Gifts.
At ter thinking on it for a long
time. I decided that nobody really
gives a damn about a time cap-
sule Allen said, "I mean, 80 years
from now, who'sgonna care about
a hat happened in 1991 or '92? Do
you care what happened 80 years
ago, in 110? Gimme a break
And then it hit Allen like a ton
of burritos. He asked himself,
"Why drive all the way out to the
Piazza or to Carolina West, when
we can have the convenience of a
shopping mall on campus?"
Traditionally, the senior class
has given some really lame gifts.
For instance, the 1988 class gave
Chancellor Dick Achin a toaster
oven. The lamest class gift of all
time was a salt-lick post given by
the class of 1973.
So Allen knew he had to be
innovative when considering the
1992 class gift. And then, when
standing in line at the Fillet of
Chicks, the idea hit him like a ton
of feathers.
Allen's proposed $92-million
mall complex will dwarf theobso-
lete-before-it's-even-built $18-mil-
lion student recreation center.
Stores included in the mall: a
Sare's, a Blunder's and a Poison
Ivey's. The lingerie chain Vicky's
Dirty Secrets may also locate there.
Allen said that the mall will
ha' e extra-wide walking areas for
ciderly tenured faculty with a pen-
chant for speed-walking.
But the most exciting portion
of the mall will be the eatery sec-
tion, which will include a Darl's
(Anse's and Addie's boy), a
Koppel House (where each waffle
bears a striking resemblance to
Ted Koppel's face) and an Earlvis
Big Boy (in honor of the rotund
media giant).
For the sweet-toothed, there
will be an I Can't Believe I Really
Put That Nasty Crap In My Mouth
and a Submergin' Doughnuts (es-
pecially for Public Safety officers).
The only snag in the plan may
be parking. According to Allen's
critics, the three proposed park-
ing spaces will not fully serve the
needs of mall-goers.
"Parking may be a problem,
but who cares?" Allen said. "You
can't find a place on this deity-
forsaken campus anyway, so
what's the difference?"
Oneother problem with build-
ing the mall will be finding the $92
million required. As a first step in
tackling the funding problem, the
SAG has mandated that freshmen
be rounded up and forced to par-
ticipate in the building's construc-
tion.
"Of course, that won't totally
solve the problem said Allen.
"We'll take donations, too
When considering a name for
the mall, Allen and his committee
thought long and hard, and then
the decision hit them like a ton of
books titled WhontTo NameaBuild-
ing After. Although only Earlvis
Press is privy to the name, we will
divulge it right now, just to ruin
the unveilingceremonies. The mall
will be named after Ron Jeremy, a
former ECU student and thor-
oughly obscure film actor.
Allen defended his decision
to name such a huge and impor-
tant project after someone almost
completely unknown. "Look
around you said Allen. "Find
me one ECU graduate who's a
household name. Get my point?"
NBC unveils new method of Poll results
predicting election results
startle CEO
I i D A1 Al (.AMAH I) PRI-5S
The American public has an
Insatiable appetite for information
about the public's opinion of the
presidential candidates.
In the past, TV networks and
other news organizations have
.ittempted to meet the public de-
mand by repeatedly taking opin-
ion polls. That practice led to tak-
ing exit polls which attempt to
predict the results of an election
b) interviewing voters as they
emerge from the voting booth.
But now even that practice is
passe, according to NBC network
president G.E. Pawn. Pawn sums
up theclection-prediction method
of the '90s in one word Psychics
"Public opinion polls onlv
show vou the public's opinion at
the moment the poll was taken
notes Pawn, "and exit polls are
necessarily incomplete. With
psychics, we can know the exact
results as far ahead as you want
them
Pawn believes that psychics
can eventually replace elections
altogether, providing the Ameri-
can public with their ideal situa-
tion: a comfortablecertainty about
the future, and no responsibility
for it.
NBC currently is employing
psychics to predict election results
into the next century.
On the popular NBC morning
show Too Dazed, noted psychic
Jeanne Vixen predicted that Julia
Roberts would run for president
in 1996, but would be defeated by
incumbent Shirley MacLaine.
As a bonus, Vixen predicted
that Too Dazed co-host Brian
Gumball would succeed Supreme
Court Justice Clarence Thomas.
The seer further predicted that, by
a staggering coincidence, Katie
Curriculum (the show's other co-
host) would be confirmed as a re-
placement for Justice Sandra Day
O'Connor.
"And the person who is presi-
dent at the time will claim that
Gumball isn't being nominated
just because he's replacing a black
justice Vixen mysteriously in-
toned. "And that Curriculum isn't
being nominated just because she's
replacing a woman. Gee, that's a
shocker
The Amalgamated Press
A new Gallop poll released
Monday shows that more than
99 percent of all Americans were
not polled by the poll.
"Naturally, we'realittlecon-
cerned about this result said
Frank Secretariat,Gallop'sCEO.
"A little concerned, and slightly-
worried. A little concerned,
slightly worried, and a bit ap-
prehensive. A little concerned,
slightly worried, a bit apprehen-
sive, and just a tad scared. A
littleconcerned, slightly worried,
a bit apprehensive, just a tad
scared, and somewhat ? well,
you get the point
Within minutes of the re-
lease of the poll data, an organi-
zation had sprung up to criticize
pollsters.
"These numbers just show
that pollsters are out of touch
with the majority of Americans
gibbered Lee Murr, founder of
Americans for Polling Every-
body. "We APEs demand that
all Americans be empowered to
participate in the process of be-
ing polled
When Secretariat responded
that polling all Americans would
be prohibitively expensive and
is mathematically unnecessary,
Murr called the CEO a "white
male fascist" and slapped him.

peated the respecbvesongs' titles

Hammer's theory, each song

Hammer has since patented
the hit-making process, which
will henceforth be known as
"Hammering out a song
Hammer is currently work-
ing with researchers to find out
just how many times a single
song's title can be packed onto a
standard CD.
Current estimates are dis-
appointing ? only about a mil-
lion repetitions, say some. But
Hammer thinks it might be pos-
sible to use one-syllable song
titles and advanced data com-
pression routines to increase that
figure by a factor of 1000.
With a billion repetitions per
song, Hammer believes, his cre-
ations should go platinum

Former ECU artist breaks into comic book industry
By Jeff Parker
Staff Writer
The comic book industry ranks
as one of the hardest businesses to
break into, in this country at least.
Comics, despite its popularity, is
still a relatively small field, and
prospective writers and artists
would usually have an easier time
findingacting work in film. So when
someone does find an outlet for
their craft in the industry, then a
particular level of success has been
achieved.
The closest load bov makes
good" storv is that of Mike Iverson,
a former art student oi East Caro-
lina. Iverson is the artist and av
creator of Vigil tall fnnn grace, one oi
the latest products of Innovation
Comics
What is as interesting as
Iverson s success is that his debut
corractsmrnanywaysacontinuance
of a strip he did as an undergradu-
ate for The East Carolinian' Pirate
Comics, The Vampire.
"The 'ampin gave me a chance
to breaka way f mm schoohvork and
practice what 1 really liked, comics
Iverson said
Th Vampire was one of the
most memorable features ol the
Pirate Comics page, chronicling the
adventures of a policeman-tumed-
vampire, who continues his work
utilizing the abilities of the infa-
mous bloodsuckers.
Iverson had fun with the genres
o(superheroesand horror. The main
character chooses to fight for good
based on an omen of a satirical na-
ture a Batman comic falls out of
the skv and hits the vampire in the
head. Weekly episc?des often were
filled with exaggerated violence of
explicit nature.
"Basically, I tried to get one act
of violence in each strip. I always
hoped to provoke some reactions
from the readers
After graduation, Iverson left
the rain and cold of C.roonville to
live in thodrv heat of Pruvnix, Ariz
While working asa commercial art-
ist, he kept making efforts to work
in comics.
During an interview in the art
department at Tower Records,
Iverson met display artist Arvin
Loudenralk, who had similar inter-
ests in comics. The two quicklv es-
tablished a rapportand began work-
ing together.
Iverson and 1 oudermilk spent
some rime trying to sell a superhero
title they had developed, but noth-
ing came of it. "We took our idea
around at the San Diego conven-
tion thatyear,and didn't really make
any progress Iverson said. "On
the drive Kick to Arizona, Arvin
thought some more about The Vam-
pire and the character Grace, and
suggested we try to do something
with her. From there, the whole
idea just clicked
Finally, the winning connection
was made at the San Diego Comics
Convention held last year in July.
As Iverson visited one publisher
after another, he left eight-page
photocopy samples of the team's
latest endeavor, Grace.
The storv made use of a woman
police lieutenant introduced way
back in the final episodes of The
Vampire.
In October, the editor at Inno-
vation contacted Mike at home and
Started talking publication.
Vigil: fall from grace is described
in promotion as a "hard-boiled
blood sucking thriller leaning as
much toward detective fiction as it
does gothic horror.
Grace Kimble, the title charac-
ter, utilizes heavy weaponry in her
determination to keep the general
public sate from her undead peers.
She views her condition as some
sort of malady or affliction, and
struggles to keep her sanity despite
her new and unnatural urges.
With Vigil, Iverson uses tech-
niques experimented with in his
college strip, such as xeroxed photo
backgrounds. The process of creat-
ing each page requires various lay-
ers for each final image, with inks
done on hosted acetate and zip-a-
tone and airbrush mixed in.
For artistic direction, Iverson
often looks to acclaimed comics
artists Steve Rude and Dave Gib-
bons. "Among others I like, I really
admire Bill Sienkiwicz and Dave
McKcan. They show that you can
be an artist in a business-ruled me-
dium Iverson said. "Unfortu-
nately, too many companies are
more concerned with whether dead-
lines can be met rather than with
quality.
As the second issue of Vigil
prepares to come out, Iverson says
he has no plans to work on any
other projects yet. "We have more
story ideas ? we'd like to do about
eight more Vigil miniseries. In the
future, I might liketodosome work
for DC comics, but for now I'm
happy with this Iverson said.
Vigil can be ordered at local
comics retail stores for $2.75.

The Student Union's
Jennings and George lories Korv
said. "The next night we'd plav a
high school gig with typical dance
music or a private partv with mel-
low music like Bread and Linda
Rondstat
After graduating from high
school in Houston, Kory attended
Texas A&M University, where she
earned her undergraduate degree
and M.D in psychiatry.
Kory sud music took a Kick
seat to studies while in college.
It was not until she finished her
internship two and a half years ago
that Korv picked up her guitar and
started playing professionally again.
"1 never thought I would come
hack to my music Korv said. "But
I got my time back after finishing
Coffeehouse Commute Pre
mv internship. Plusmv friendssug-
gested I get back into it after heanng
me plav at their private parties
1 found my music to be a very
healing kind of thing" Korvsud. "I
could reach people more with lvrics
than psychiatry
The lyrics are the nicest impor-
tant element of her songs. Strong
words are the key to getting her
powerful message across.
The stmgs deal with personal
and socially responsible feelings.
They range from relationships to
how we respond to the environ-
mental needs of the world.
All Korv's recent material is
her own. She has written over 100
original songs. Her style is a blend
of several musical categories in-
sents:
eluding country, folk, rock and
blues.
Korv's debut album. Opportu-
nity Knocks More Than Once, was
released abouta year and a half ago
and was received locally and na-
tionally.
She produced, engineered,
mixed and recorded the album un-
der her own label. The album con-
sists of an all-acoustic band.
Kory's new album should be
released in two weeks. The album
is titled All Love Can Take.
Performance time is at 8 p.m.
Ad mission price is $5 for the general
public and $4 for members of the
Greenville FolkArts Society. Stu-
dents get in for half price with a

WHY TOU SHOULD STMT PLANNING FOR
RETIREMENT WITH TOUR EYES CLOSED.
For retirement to be the time of your life, you
have to dream a little?about the things
you've always wanted to do: travel, explore,
start a business. Just imagine
With a dream and a plan, you can make it
happen. Your pension and Social Security
should provide a good
basic retirement income,
but what about all those
extras that make your
dreams possible? You'll
probably need some
additional savings.
THE DREAM IS YOUR OWN.
WE CAN HELP YOU WITH THE PLAN.
TIAA-CREF Supplemental Retirement
Annuities (SRAs), tax-deferred annuities for
people like you in education and research, are
a good way to save for retirement and save
on taxes now. SRAs are easy ?you make con-
tributions through your institution before your I
taxes are calculated, so you pay less tax now.
You pay no tax on
your SRA contributions
and earnings until you
receive them as income.
And saving regularly
means your contribu-
tions and their earnings
can add up quicklv.
What eise makes SRAs
so special9 A broad range
of allocation choices, from
the safety of TIAA to the
investment accounts of
CREF'a variable annuity;
no sales charges; a variety of ways to receive
income, including annuities, payments over a
fixed period, or cash. You may also be able to
borrow against your SRA accumulation
before you retire
All this, plus the top investment manage-
ment that has helped make TIAA-CREF the
largest retirement system in the country.
So start dreaming and planning for the time
of your life. Because the sooner you start your
SRA, the greater your savings and your retire-
ment will be.
