A t jHfamous Batman roo many people are walking around with Calvin Klein jeans on their behinds and nothing in their minds, was a statement that characterized the speech of Eastside High School Principle Joe Clark. Time and time again, Mr Clark would emphasize his idea that people shouldn ' t try to satisfy others. Instead, they should do what they felt was correct and not mind the consequences. Joe Clark started out with many inspiring state- ments. He stressed the idea that people should never give up, that they should fight just one more round. Another inspirational statement was in response to Clark ' s infamous bat. Clark ' s unor- thodox methods of discipline were explained away rather flippantly when Clark stated that the only reason he carried the bat was to signify that, Kid ' s, it ' s your turn to bat. Are you going to strike out or hit a home run? The expressive features of Joe Clark only added to the atmo- sphere of intense captivation that the audience experienced when he appeared at Centen- nial Hall during his October visit to the University. Photo by BRICE SAMUEL Perhaps the turning point in Joe Clark ' s speech oc- curred when he started to compare himself to Mother Theresa. He elabortated on his methods of discipline, and declared that he was proudest of the award Teacher of the Year that he was recognized for He then showed a 12-minu te videotape on himself that showed in detail his unusual methods of discipline, which included the infamous bat and a bullhorn. Clark also used the public announcement system for his purposes, denouncing a teacher over the RA. because she disagreed with his methods. All in all, Clark ' s speech started out well, but disintegrated into a personal back-patting session that glorified the mistreatment of students and teachers. Clark stated that he didn ' t care if people wrote about him, whether it was a good or a bad review. Well, this is one more chalk mark on the negative side of the board, a board I ' m sure Joe Clark will erase all by himself.

Parking lots were often filled to maximum ca nacitv This red surtace Lt Lated in front o Coronado Dormi was a very popular place To park. Sometimes U was ' too popular. It came J o Parking! t was NOT going to be a good day. There was absolutely no parking spaces available ; where at all. Trust :ing spaces ; Dn this, I looked. Those little spaces where motorcycles barely fit . . . you know . . . those ones with the little yellow lines running across them diagonally through it . . . well, I ' ve seen big gigantic gargantuan trucks fit in them. Seriously. Was there a solution? Construction took up spaces that were previously used as parking lots and there was a major problem with overenroUment. Too many students with too many cars and not enough parking spots became the order of the day. Students soon found that the only solution was to use the buses or to take a bike. • Wendy Ursell e person admires the view from the Stadium ' s new skybox.
