had the same interests Editor ' s Note: Natasha Johnson and Chad Marschel were an ASU couple. Natasha told her story to Spark copywriter Renee Caruss. These are her own words about her relationship with Chad during the 1992-93 school year. When I saw Chad Marschel, I thought he was real cute. He had this shiny blon d hair and the most gorgeous eyes ever! I was infatuated, and I hoped he would ask me out. He had such a neat personality, and I just hoped that he would talk to me. Finally, the day came and we met through friends. I was so happy he wanted to be with me. There was nothing else I could think about. We both went to school at ASU, and we really liked it here. I ' m from Colorado so since Chad and I lived so far apart, school gave us a chance to be together. We both had the same We spent a lot of time and playing the sports we liked. We both were business majors which helped because we related to each other a lot better. We tried to keep academics in sync with our relationship because our goals were important to us. Our friends were very important to us also. They encouraged our two- year relationship and admired us. We had our small disagreements, but we managed to pull through with little trouble. Communication was the most important part of our relationship. I had a lot of fun times with Chad. He gave me flowers and cards, but the sweetest thing he did for me was took me out to dinner for Valentine ' s Day. Friendship was another important aspect in our relationship. We listened to each other and helped each other out. Our friends felt that we were a couple to envy because a lot of times, people get bored and tired of a relationship. We kept it together that long because we had excellent and a wonderful friendship. If you have this in a relationship, nothing can separate you. by natasha Johnson renee caruss left — Telling writer Renee Caruss about her relationship with Chad Marschel, Natasha Johnson explains their secret for staying together.

am very proud of mexican heritage Editor ' s Note: Mark Martinez was an ASU student. Mark told his story about the challenges of maintaining ethnic identity on a predominately white campus. Mark told his story to Sun Devil Spark Yearbook copywriter Renee Caruss. Race was a complicated issue. Wherever you went you were confronted with the issue. If you filled out applications for school or jobs, you had to fill in your ethnic background. I was very proud of my Mexican heritage. I was a freshman and a part of MECHA. I was involved in the community and participated in extra-curricular activities. It was stereotypical of people to think that ASU had a lot of white, rich students. I focused on the real issues. We were all there for one reason: to get a good education. No one was above anyone else. We should have all been about our goals in life and what the future was to bring. ASU had an excellent academic image and a wonderful environment for studying. We should have all taken advantage of it and used it. There were plenty of tutors and counseling available. I didn ' t feel that non-white students were treated differently. Professors didn ' t base your grades on the color of your skin; it was the ability to which you could perform and to the degree which you excelled that they graded. You had to work for what you earned, as you did in anything in life. A lot of hateful words were expressed concerning race. If we would have all worked together and tried to clean up the streets and worked within the communities helping each other, then race would not have been such a complicated issue. Everyone had an ethnic identity at ASU and should have been proud of it. We should have shared our cultures and learned things from each other. by mark martinez and renee caruss above — Reviewing their books, Mark Martinez and Jose Martinez prepare for their next class.
