Prior to coming to AGSIM I lived in Oregon and attended Pacific University, a small liberal arts college. After graduating in 1980,1 worked as an accoun­ tant for three years before starting my own business.

I look forward to working with and representing you in the future.

I.Cal Edward Larson declare my can­ didacy as your ASLC First Semester Representative. Besides this position be­ ing a fun challenge, it also connotes and commands responsibility. Needed is a sen­ sitivity to students and to the spirit of this institution. To represent both these in­ terests one must be an effective listener and communicator.

Hello. 1 am Robert Duncan. I can best serve the AGSIM students in three ways.

I maintain that students should be train­ ed with current computer technology. At Brigham Young University. I encouraged and helped introduce computer training on the IBM pc Here. I plan to lobby for the same.

I believe that funds should be distributed fairly to all dubs/committee to stimulate student interest, participation and educa­ tion. With a B.S in Accounting, 1 can help to allocate and account for any funds held by the ASLC. Also my competing on BYUs cross country and track team will insure that we do not overtook sports here.

I feel that all students have the same basic rights. Having lived abroad for eight years, studied eight languages and earned a B.A. in International Relations, I can serve with a pluralistic view.

So on 19 February, do not forget to vote number eight on your ballot - Robert Dun- can Thank vou.

I do not make any empty promises. If elected to the position of First Semester Representative I will do the best job that I can. To me this means maintaining an open line of communication between you and me so that together we can make AGSIM a place that is both academically and socially rewarding.

Previous experience has reinforced my belief that a student government associa­ tion is capable of satisfying the needs and wants of a student body within the con­ straints of an academic institution. I have already been actively involved in many facets of student government at the university level. As Secretary of the Stu­ dent Government Association, I learned bow to obtain optimum results using an organization's resources. As Dormitory President, I came to understand the

responsibility of representing my consti­ tuents effectively. As an Auxiliary Member of the Board of Trustees, I helped coordinate the efforts of administrators, faculty members, and students to ac­ complish mutually beneficial goals.

I know that active involvement will pro­ duce positive results. If elected to the posi­ tion of First Semester Representative, I will be committed to making AGSIM a bet­ ter place for all of us. However, in order to prove my capabilities I need one very im­ portant ingredient: your support.

Computers ResurrectedLast semester's hot computer controver­

sy faced certain resurrection on these pages with or without a catalyst. The letter below from David Knower, serves this pur­ pose. First term students must be made aware of the facts surrounding the pro­ posal for acquiring personal computers on campus for student use. A deadlock was readied between the computer committee and toe administration on the proposal, aad apparently many students were tem­ porarily appeased.

Any one of us could experience David's plight upon leaving this insulated academic cocoon of international business. The world is increasingly high- tech.

As AGSIM graduates, we will haw a legitimate excuse for our computer il­ literacy . This is certainly not favorable for the image of our fair institution. What kind of impression does Mellon Bank now have of us? They may decide to stick with local business students from Carnegie-MelJon or Pitt, The increasing awareness of poten­ tial recruiters/employers of this gap in our education does not fare well for graduating

students seeking employ.Perhaps AGSIM students should take

more of the blame for this situation than the administration. Some AGSLMmers ac­ tually believe the> are receiving computer science training here. One resume in the current resume book mentions "computer science" as a concentration. Does this stu­ dent have a course catalogue that I don't have? Are we attending the same school?

Oar only consolation is the existence of public institutions throughout this country where we can pick up the computer skills we will be lacking when we leave. How many of yew look forward to night classes after a ten-hour day at that new job? Anyway, we must prepare ourselves for a similar situation to what David has en­ countered. Cherish the thought of forcing an entire personal computer manual into your heads, T-Birds, during those stressful first days on the job. It can't be much dif­ ferent from much of the cramming done during a summer term at AGSIM, so those summer survivors will have a distinct ad­ vantage.

-Betsy Carr

Computer Illiteracy on the JobEditor:

My name is David Knower and I am the current intern at Mellon Bank in Pitt­ sburgh. I have been asked to relate my ex­ perience with the PC on the job in order to try to get the adzsisistraUoE to move nwre quickly on the issue.

At AGSDf I never had die chance to learn bow to use a PC. I never really thought it was necessary. I'll tell you why.

Upon arrival at Mellon, the first question I was asked was whether or not 1 could use the PC. I didn't know how; therefore, I spent the entire first week, trying to teach myself how to use the PC. I bad a tutorial

disk to help me but no one was able to take any time to assist. It took me all week to get a bask understanding of the system.

Since then I have used the PC every day. Everything f do, and everything tSat anyone does, ends up on the PC. It is an in­ tegral part of the department. I find that I often have to stop, wasting precious time, to ask bow to use various options, bow to create the graphs I need, etc.

I DOW see the extreme need for PC's on campus. I sure wish I had had some train­ ing before I arrived at Mellon.

David Knower

Complain and Be HeardEditor:

The student body, faculty and ad- ministration must work together to ensure Thunderbird's continued success in an in­ creasingly competitive environment. This means maintaining an atmosphere of cooperation, communication and mutual respect in our pursuit of this common goal. When there is a major violation, I believe it should be made known. Just as a student spoke oat last week in favor of the profs, I would like to speak out this week, strongly in favor of the students!!!

There are atot of good ideas and valuable insight that the students can con­ tribute to make Thunderbird even better. There are people who listen and if you are persistent you wfll find them, but I for one have fdt frustrated many a time in voicing

DAS TOR accepts and encourages tetters to be submitted on any subject with relevance to the Thunderbird community.

To ensure the maximum expediency in publishing. aH submissions should be typed, double-spaced, and margins set 20 and 70

Letters should be signed and are subject to revision at the editor's discretion

my opinions and ideas. My persistence has, however, paid off and I am being listened to. 1 want to encourage other students who are dissatisfied with so­ meone or something in the system to speak out and not justify a continued silence by saying you will only be here for one year. If we, as students remain silent then things will never change.

The majority here obviously have a great deal of faith and respect in the students, but I was confronted with patronizing attitudes last fall when I made an effort with the rest of the T-birds retur­ ning from the Summer Europe Program to present a proposal of recommendations to improve future such programs. All the frustration and headache I went through was made worthwhile after I found out yesterday from Christa Britt that our recommendations were acted upon.

These demeaning attitudes were very prominent during Orientation week and certinly did not promote an atmosphere of cooperation and mutual respect between students, administration and faculty. At first I thought I may have over reacted, but my impressions were confirmed by new students, continuing students, faculty, adminstrators and staff. In my concern, I went to Nelda Crowell in the Communica­ tions Department and then to President Vons. Both were very receptive and listen­ ed to what I have to say.

I asked everyone (students, faculty, staff and administrators) to communicate their ideas and suggestions for change so that we can work together in an effort to perpetuate our uniqueness and ensure Thunderbird's success in an uncertain future.

Na ZdroviaDear Editor:

Tell me why one should say, "Na zdrovia?"

I take exception to your "Official Guide to Toasts in Many Tongues." You've in­ cluded two of the three Baltic nations, but forgot to include my fatherland: LATVIA.

So, the next time you raise your cognac glass in a toast, don't say it in a Com­ munist tongue; say it in a language that yearns and struggles for its freedom.

Try saying. "SVEIKS"!Juris Ulmanis

Crowding CatsDear Editor,

I'm concerned about the illicit over­ crowding in the East Dorm area. For some time now. I've observed the cats that ap­ parently make their borne among the vehicles of uncertain vintage parked around the dorms, live in the laundry room, or when someone unwittingly leaves the door ajar, find refuge in Coteman Lounge. These wary felines seem frighten­ ed when approached. This is baffling to me because I've found everyone at AGSIM to be very receptive to strangers and newcomers (not necessarily mutually ex elusive). Why should the cats be so afraid that they won't even let one near enough to pet them?

One of the cats, Ms Hoherschuhe, has gotten her name due to her off-white body with dabs of color on her appendages and has obviously not been afraid of her own kind. Dispensing with her favors, she has managed to attract a plethora of suitors, and would-be suitors, for amorous adven­ tures under ye-olde-Toyota. Now that the deed has been consummated (sorry about that), we in the East Dorm area should be able to sleep nights, but our rest is now disturbed by the realization we will be sur­ rogate parents to her offspring. Hopefully they will not be so frightened of association with humans and will learn to adjust to life at AGSIM, as we all must I'm concerned, however, whether East Dorm can ac­ commodate Ms Hoberschube's population explosion or not and am concerned that Ms Hoherscbuhe's legacy to future Tbunderbirders will be an increase in furry little friends whose cries will pierce the night as they "get back to the basics" under some old Buick. In anticipation of the blessed (?) event, I must voice a plea: Kittens anyone?

Reps and ClubsIt is very important that our university's

student body be represented by talented and capable students on our ASLC. I en­ courage all of you to be careful in your con­ sideration when voting, but most im­ portantly, please vote!

As Vice President 1 have begun to realize the many different aspects of our school and the way things work. This con­ vinces me even more that a well organized student government must be maintained. I congratulate the nine students who showed care and concern in their decision to run for First Semester Rep. I admire them for their willingness to get involved and their wish to represent our school.

This past weekend, six other AGSIM students and I, participated in Glendale's Seventy-fifth Anniversary Parade. As we walked down the street carrying a banner which read, "The American Graduate School of Management", I not only realiz­ ed how proud I am to be an American, a land filled with parades and opportunity, but also bow proud I am to be a T-Bted, a very elite group of individuals, represen­ ting our school all over this world and it's many great countries. Raise your bead T- Birds and be proud.

Please remember to vote on Tuesday. Show these nine students our appreciation with a large turnout.

Don't Underline Reserve MaterialDear Pond Scum:

I have just spent 30 minutes erasing your ob-so-brilliant insights and oh-so- thougntful check marks from a reserve bok. But, it's the chapter you underlined and "X"ed in pen that inspired this letter to you. I was reminded of last semester, and all those reserve articles your spiffy new yellow Hitler screwed up for me, and I thought, we just have to talk.

Look, crad-brato. I don't care what some anonymous student thought was Important to remember in these readings. Besides, you thoughtless twit, you underline everything. And, since you obviously need to be told, it is not physically possible to photocopy something that's been neon- highlighted. The material turns DARK, Bozo. You are so dumb, you don't know that people underline so that when they review it, they wfll be more efficient. And there you are, underlining something that you'll never see again.

Let me get to the point. Do NOT, I repeat, do NOT deface or mark in any way materials that you do not own. Pending legislation (which I shall introduce in ASLC) will make such defacement punishable by bard labor at erasing ALL the pencil marks from ALL the textbooks, and procuring brand new, shiny-clean ar­ ticles for ALL the Reserve binders, until you have paid your debt to AGSIM society,you Insensitive worm. _ ,_ _. _ ___ 3 Catherine G.Tripp

Poor TasteEditor:

I was appalled and ashamed upon reading the last line of the upcoming- marriage announcement of Dick Mahoney and Mary Jo West in the February 11 issue of DAS TOR. Such disgusting and rode comments have no place in any publica­ tion. It wasn't funny and I believe aa apology by the jerk who wrote it is inorder Sincerely,

J.B. MarkhamProfessor Maboaey has a very active sense of humor. Asked about foe article, be replied, "I tbJolc it's a bealttsy in- sight." Assistant Editor

Did You Know?Bill Clay, Vice President, District

Manager for Chase Manhattan's Phoenix branch, visited the Thunderbird campus last week to present the School with a check for $15,000. Later mis month, the firm will add another $15,000 which brings their grand total of gifts to the School to $240,000. Chase Manhattan has been a con­ sistent donor to Thunderbird since the mid-1950s and ranks third in number of alumni employed.

Firestone Tire & Rubber Company recently contributed $10,000 to Thunder- bird. The gift puts Firestone at a total giv­ ing mark to the School of $197,750. Firestone has been a consistent donor to the School since 1952.

I receive many questions about dobs. Anyone interested in fanning a new dub may do so at the beginning of each semester. The group must fill out a dub application, a dub charter, signed by the President and Club Sponsor, and must have at least fifteen dues paying members on their roster.

After the formation of the dub, each Club President, or dub representative, must attend a meeting with the other club President, to exchange ideas about the up­ coming semester. Also, the dab Presidents vote to elect a dub Council President, who shall represent the dubs on ASLC. The Club Council President shall also be a member of Program Board.

Program Board is a group of seven to eight students who decide when and where ASLC funds will be spent on club activities. Each dub must submit a budget request, which states the dubs upcoming semester event and it's estimated cost The Pro­ gram Board then decides the breakdown of the budget and distributes the funds. These distributions may vary anywhere from 1,500 and 100 dollars, or even a refusal to grant funds. This years Program Board has a budget of 8,600 dollars.

If you have any further questions, please contact the ASLC office.

Those of you who missed last Sunday's soccer match here at AGSM missed an extremely exciting game. The game ended in a 0-0 tie which, howes-er, is no indication of the fiercely fought contest. Fine defen­ sive efforts were turned in by the Spanish connection of Jose Poos at sweeper and Agustin Soucheron in the goal. All three first semester students. Frances Brudener. Paoto Facet, and Jorn Un- nederg turned in strong performances - that trio win see many victories here at AGSIM before their time is up. This Sun­ day, February 17, the BOYS IN BLUE take their show on the road to Mesa vs. Serbs- Stallions. With one game and another week of practice under their belts, the chance for a T-BIRD victory looks promising.

40 Students Take Chinese 300 For Fun and Profitby James Bogta

Whoever thought that Chinese 300 would be so popular this semester? It is. of course, "because of what's happening in Mainland China," explained Professor An­ drew Chang, although "it caught everyone off guard,"

Students, when questioned, offered a myriad of flippant and serious responses. According to Jim Kasputis, the answer Is "Mooey. The guy who loaned me the money (to go to AGSIM) said he wouldn't if it took a less commonly viable language like French or Spanish, and since be owns my car and house..." Cliff Helbert said, "I just want to impress the girts when I take them to a Chinese restaurant," and Laune Sack admitted, "I've been wondering myself." Kazuto Kunabashi said be wants "to lead a delicious life," parodying a wen known Japanese ad.

Professor Jane Kuo concurs, "Because

all the big corporations are moving to China; it's business oriented," whereas first semester student Ted Kinsman has

"an undergraduate degree in religion," and wants to read Cbuang Tra in the ortgfcal Yod correspondent is also study­

ing with the masses, having needed an easy lourth coarse. Wo men don tea zaang!

Uons, and that I will share with you my most precious possession: my time.

1 am originally from Italy, but 1 have liv­ ed most of my life in Venezuela. In 19771 came to the States and attended high school in Boca Raton. Florida. The follow­ ing year 1 began my college career at Texas A & M University where I studied Agricultural Economics. I graduated in August, 1981 and went back to Venezuela for vacation and helped my father with his construction business

In early 1982 I went to Fort Myers, Florida and worked for a large Agricultural Corporation in the position of Packing House Manager and Agricultural Economist. From there I moved to Miami where I worked for the Florida Interna­ tional Center as an intern to establish the Institute for the Resolution of Interna­ tional Commercial Disputes (a concilia­ tion and arbitration center).

This past Winterim I joined AGSIM. I would be honored to be your represen­ tative this semester. I would appreciate your vote.

GLOBAL INVESTMENT BANKING

The future of investment banking is, unquestionably global.

And one institution alone stands for Global Investment Banking: Citicorp Invest­ ment Bank.

Right now, Vickers Da Costa, a subsidiary of Citicorp, is looking for entry level investment banking associates in Japan.

The Japanese Ministry of Finance and the U.S. Treasury recently made an impor­ tant agreement which accelerates the growth of investment banking in Japan. By entering this field now, you could accelerate your own future success.

If you have an MBA degree (or equivalent work experience), fluency in Japanese, and if possible, securities or investment- related experience, send a resume to Pamela Brown, Citicorp Investment Bank, 399 Park Avenue, 14th floor, New York, NY 10043.

The future is global investment banking. And you could be a part of it now.

Guneyprovided to us. I will be always grateful to tbe Orien* twn Committee Nevertheless. American students did not. receive an equal treatment in academic advising as we did. I understand help given to a Belgian student who just stepped oo American soil. tat. certain academic assistance should be offered to all of us. Another point is the advising which should be an ongoing process and not only a 2- day 15-imnutes per person deal. Third, certain language placement tests need to total tune-up and I would like to echo some students' concerns. Fourth, there is a true lack of communication between students - faculty-administration; this should not be a Bermuda's Triangle! We need an open forum which could only result in a better program in AGSIM.

Thus, I will work for better academic orientation, more ongoing advising, better language placement tests, and better com­ munication channels. A true dialog is what we need AGSIM. Thank you.

-Izzet Guney

SandierHill. While at Carolina I was a Justice on the Student Supreme Court and a member of various student government and union committees. I was the treasurer of my fraternity, participated in two interna­ tional exchanges, and even did a weekly news broadcast on a local radio station.

In bringing many different experiences to the ASLC, I will be a successful first semester rep. If elected I have a few goals that I w.-'nt to accomplish. For example, I want to \.ork with the orientation commit­ tee to ma .e the transition of future Thirds easier, tspeciaDy with respect to waivers, housing, and course selection. Also, I wast to see more interaction on a personal level between profs and students outside of the classroom. After all. there's more than just the academ ic side of learning. Finally, 1 will be open to your suggestions, and will always listen to you.

Give me the opportunity to prove this to you, by working for you this semester. Thanks, and remember to vote cm Tues­ day.
