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;

I’m the chair for their board of di
rectors. I worked in their news de
partment; I’m a DJ there. 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

that the University is a wonderful,
for the most part tolerant, place to
go to school.
0^ Critique Wylie Chen and
♦ Mitra Anoushiravani as the
current ASUO Executive. 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.

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.
