A^(AD) I started in 1995; I ♦ worked for the Oregon Com mentator and then I went to the Emerald. I was on the edit board. From there, I went on to be the ASUO communications director ... served on the [Student] Senate for a year, got elected to serve an other year, but I quit because I changed majors from journalism to political science, so I couldn’t hold that seat anymore. And since then I have been working at KWVA on their board of directors; 1 008557 Enjoy a thought provoking evening “I Hope You Don’t Mind Me Asking But...” Presented by Professor Kip Fulbeck from U.C.

I have also worked on the Emerald’s board of directors, student faculty committees, on a students faculty committee on grievances and also on another committee that hasn’t actually met yet. O^What sets you apart from ♦ the other presidential candi dates? A4(CU) Definitely our creative ♦ campaigning, I think, that has a lot to do with it.... Our goal, I know we said, was to spend less than $20 on our campaign, and my goal, personally... is to spend zero dollars on the campaign.Q: You guys have known each other for eight years, but why did you choose Caitlin for a running mate? A# (AD) I talked to Caitlin about ♦ it, and she’s known what I have been doing over the past years and she was interested, so I decided to choose her. Q^What do you consider the ♦ two most pressing issues at the University, and what specific plans do you have to address those issues? A4(AD) One of them, I guess, is ♦ the access to education, but as to dealing with that I’m not quite sure. Yes, it is our job, but it shouldn’t be. We have the USSA, and we have [Oregon Student As sociation] that basically deals with those types of things. It should be the University administration’s job to actually keep the cost of ed ucation down. A4 (CU) Another one would defi nitely be getting out there and letting the students know where their money is going be cause we don’t. I don’t, and I’m running for this, and I want to find out, and I want to let everybody know. Q4 What do you feel are the ♦ strengths and weaknesses of the University? A ♦(AD) The weakness of the ♦ University right now is keep ing students informed about the policies they are making. They 4 make a lot of policy that affects students, and there is very little student input on a lot of those policies. A4 (CU) There is all this promot ♦ ing diversity on campus, and I think that that’s a wonderful, wonderful idea, f don’t know if it’s necessarily something that is within our power, but at the same time I think that we should honor Are you in need of a Care Package or Gift? r Let us know if there’s someone we should send a friendly hint to and let them know that their dear child is in need of a gift!

The Waseda Oregon Transnational Program, Fall 2000 and Spring 2001, is a comparative US-Japanese Societies study program that mixes US-based and international students with undergraduates from the prestigious Waseda University, Tokyo, Japan. Three levels of Japanese language instruction are offered in addition to US-Japanese Societies courses in the humanities and social sciences. Scholarships of up to $1000 are available!

What would you change? A4(AD) One of them is opening ♦ up to students; you need to open up to students more. I can’t figure out why ASUO executives don’t have, like, monthly town hall meetings where they bring in [University President Dave] Frohnmayer or something and just have the students open up to talk to them and tell them what’s going on. 0^ Critique the diversity issue ♦ on campus. What changes, it any, would you make? A ♦(AD) I’m a Native American, ♦ and when I came here I was surprised that the [Native Ameri can Student Association] did not have a drum. And that’s of great significance to our culture. ... I think diversity is generally lack ing in the programs, too. O^How would you represent ♦ the University at the state level? A ♦(AD) Basically they train us ♦ how to do that. OS A and USSA, they’ll take people from the ASUO Executive office, take them to [Washington] D.C., tell them what to say, give them talk ing points and ... talk to the state Legislature. ^^♦How do you see your rela ♦ tions being with the Univer sity administration if you were elected? A4 (CU) It would be fine.... I think ♦ honestly that we both have the ability to have good, open, de cent discussions. We’re also really easy to work with, I think. This is the second in a series of stories profiling the ASUO Executive candidates. The Emerald will profile all of the candi dates before the ASUO primary elections. Fulbeck continued from page 1 American stereotypes of interra cial relationships. “He puts these issues out and allows his audience to think about them,” Liu said. The films include “Banana Split” and “Some Questions for 28 Kisses.” “We are excited to have him here to touch on an issue that I have never seen covered the way he approaches it,” APASU pro gram director Darlene Xiong said. Fulbeck has spoken at many public lectures and workshops about various issues of Asians and Hapas in America. His talks also cover interracial dating and Asian heritage. In 1995, Fulbeck co-founded the first Asian-Ameri can Film Festival in Asia and has continued to spread these festi vals throughout the United States. Fulbeck’s latest project is the completion of a fictional autobi ography, “Paper Bullets,” which will be published in fall of 2000. APASU will have a meeting this Wednesday from 5 to 6 p.m. in the Multicultural Center for students to speak with Professor Fulbeck and ask questions. 1
