PROVIDENCE RIUnion Representative JimRiley of United Food andCommercial Workers Local328 said Always LowWages should replaceAlways Low Prices as Wal-Marts guarantee in a presen-tation Tuesday night

In an impassioned attackon Wal-Marts corporatepractices Riley said thecountrys largest retailer isusing illegal and threateningtactics to ensure its workersdont unionize

It is a ruthless ruthlesscompany that is breakingdown the moral fiber and thewhole aspect of organizedlabor in the United StatesRiley said

Riley showed a video thatsought to demonstrate someof the tactics wal-Martusesto discourage its workersfrom organizing

Stan Future a store man-ager who 0 appeared on the

o video described how hecame to realize he was beingused to profile people to seeif they would be open to theunions message and firethem Another woman onthe video said Wal-Martwent so far as to terminateemployees who said theword union inside thestore more than once

One reason why employ-ees dont simply leave Wal-Mart to work for anothercompany is because Wal-Mart is sort of like a weirdlittle cult Riley said

TUSCALOOSA Ala -Us District Judge MyronThompson on Monday gaveAlabama Chief Justice RoyMoore 30 days to remove hisTen Commandments monu-ment from the Alabama StateJudicial Building

Moore had the 25-tongranite monument erected inthe state building shortlyafter his appointment to theSupreme Court in November2000

Vieoints

I have been surprised todiscover that even thoughwe dont have an official lin-guistics department we dohave some linguistic majorsUntil this term if youdasked me what linguisticswas I wouldnt have had aclue on how to answer

The Linguistics 305 coursedescription in my handbookincludes with emphasis onmeaning sounds words andsentence formation inEnglish Since that particu-lar course is a requirementfor me I signed up to takethe class probably as cluelessafter reading the description

as after I had no idea what the

field of linguistics dealt within such depth that itrequired a whole field norwould I have taken the classif it werent requiredSounded like English to me

I have been pleasantly sur-prised to discover what thatdescription means and Ihave developed a full appre-ciation for the field of lin-guistics as I now understandit

In my search for classes totake that would serve myrequirements I turned myattention to linguistics class-es Theyre upper class cours-es fulfill upper level elective

By Tracy CurranThe Arbiter ------

University should offer more linguistic courses

Its that time of year wheneveryone is or has registeredfor classes for the springsemester Like everyone elseI encountered challenges infinding space in the classes Ineeded

The upper-level writingclasses are especially chal-lenging since there are sofew options Many of themare offered at the same timesand there also seems to be adisproportionate amount ofEnglish writing majors

Of course since Im a writ-ing major I see more of thesame in many if not all myclasses And in the bigscheme of things it may notbe that there are as manywriting majors as it seems tome there are

requirements and they covera versatile range of areaswithin the area of lan-guage(s) The down sideturned out to be that we onlyhave two professors teachinglinguistics classes

Now that Ive almost com-pleted my first course in lin-guistics I understand why itis a requirement for mostEnglish majors Though Idont feel I have any aptitudewith foreign languages Inow feel I could actuallyapproach a foreign languagewith more confidence inlearning it because of myexposure to the study of lan-guage sounds

The value of a linguisticsfoundation beneath myEnglish major has proven tobe immeasurable in all mycommunications If peopleare resistant to the rules ofsyntax a linguistics coursecant help but soften thatresistance

The linguistics field stud-ies language rather than dic-tating how language shouldbe That gives me a betterview of what the field of lin-guistic encompasses

I like the idea that some-one is studying languages asthey are and not trying tochange them

That particular aspect

Monda November 25 2002

requires a certain amount oftolerance of the differences inpeople something more peo-ple could benefit from Forme Lin~istics has peeledaway another layer of preju-dices and preconceivednotions I wasnt even aware Ihad

I have learned lingual pat-terns and information I canapply in fiction writing But Ihave also learned some of therules of prescriptive gram-mar and ~hy those r~leshave come about Knowmgsomething of the backgroundof why some things are canthelp but make me a betternonfiction writer as well

And though I see thevalue of linguistics to me asan English major I also seehow valuable linguisticscould be to sciencemajors I scientists who dealin a field riddled with Latin

A solid understanding ofthe English language parentand sister languages thathave contributed to what it istoday and what it hasevolved from is part ofwhatseparates an educated boobyfrom an educated academic

Even college administra-tions seem to imply as much

Most university I collegesprefer to hire professors whoare published In fact it

dents comprise 47 percent of the student population themajority of them dont stickaround long enough to get tothose upper level coursesThat leaves the studentsintent on actually complet-ing with few choices

Though linguistics is afield on its own its applica-tions to English - or anylanguage - are undeniableAnd since the only prerequi-site to getting into Linguistic305 is English 102 whicheveryone has to take its aneasy-access upper levelcourse

One of my talents that hasbeen a benefit to me in all myclasses has been my ability towrite Since English 101 and102 are requirements forevery student it appears thegeneral consensus agreesthat writing skills willenhance a studentslikeli-hood of success

A stronger linguisticspresence could only help inthis endeavor as well andwould provide a more solidfoundation in English that isobviously not presentlybeing addressed by the 101and 102 requirements alone

seems like the more pub-lished professors a universityhas the more prestigiousthat university is

With this in mind it seemssomewhat shortsighted ofBoise States administrationto have such a small linguis-tic contribution

More Linguistics coursescould conceivably producemore published Ipublishablestaff thus enhancing BoiseStates academic reputation

I was relieved when I real-ized I could apply linguisticscourses towards my require-

ments The huge numbers oflower-level English classeslook impressive until you getto a point where you onlyneed upper level coursesThose upper- level courseswhether they are literatureclasses or writing are a pre-mium however and requirecreativity in meeting require-ments

It says something of ouradministrations focus whenthey funnel all their teachingresources in lower~levelcourses Im being given themessage that Im not expect-ed to finish Or worse thatthe administration Ivepoured money into doesntcare whether I finish or not

I also get the message thatthough the traditional stu-

To answer that I guess youhave to decide what the realworld is I have been led tobelieve all my life that thereal world is not here oncampus I dont have any-thing against this place butwe are still students and wedont have the stresses thatthe workplace tends to heapon peopleWe have different stressesSo if we use the corporate orbusiness world as our defini-tion as the real world I fearthis motto loses much of itsvalidi

Let~ start with theDepartment of PhilosophyPlu10sophers pride them-selves m being impracticaland useless to the businessworld - they glory in thingsthat no average person evencares about If we were real educationfor the real world whywould we even have a

action behind the scenes thatstudents often do not see

Iacknowledge that I mustdo a better job of sharing ourwork with you This semes-ter President Mathias and Ihave been leading the chargein the fight for allldaho high-er education students

Ihave had extensive con-sultations with the staff ofthe Idaho State Board ofEducation the education pol-icy advisor to GovernorKempthorne and severalmembers of the Idaho StateLegislature

In October I addressedthe Board of Education onthe issue of inter-universityequity funding and paintedin clear terms our anger thatBSU does not receive fairfunding treatment

I have also been workingto solidify the support forBoise State among Idahosmost powerful businessorganizations

1will continue such effortsbecause I am passionateabout this unlverstty its fac-ulty and its students

We will not stop there Ihave developed a five-point

agenda for Boise State stu-dents that ASBSU will vigor-ously push before theLegislature

Our agenda includes nofurther holdbacks to BoiseStates budget funding of theBoards directive on univer-sity equity funding no fur-ther cuts to the IdahoPromise Scholarship fund-ing for faculty salary increas-es and the promotion of con-struction projects on campus

Between now and the endof the semester I will meetwith State Board ofEducation officials includingState SuperintendentMarylyn Howard I will alsomeet with GovernorKempthorne and severalmembers of the Legislature

In December PresidentMathias and I will addressthe State Board of Educationand highlight our concernsabout faculty salaries andseek their support for ourlegislative agenda

We must all work togetherin this cause because thefuture of Idaho depends onwhat we as students dotoday Our message is sim-

pIeBoise State is Idahos

greatest university but it canbe better only with continuedsupport from the state ofdano

While the states budgetexigency will create substan-tial challenges for us I willnevertheless assiduouslywork to advance this mes-sage to all who will listenand even those who wont

With all of your help Iwill ensure that the 17700students of Boise State whorepresent the best of Idahosfuture are not forgotten

the reason for those isBarbershop

The film sparked a flurryof negative publicity whencivil-rights leaders attacked ascene in the movie in which abarber (played by Cedric theEntertainer) makes fun of theRev Martin Luther 19n9 [rRosa Parks and other icons ofthe civil rights movement

Cube 33 was asked if hethought the offending scenein the movie was sacrile-gious

Hell no he saidIts about being able to

laugh at yourself and to beable to laugh at life a little

Born OShea Jackson theraJper said he remembers achildhood filled with laugh-ter even though he grew upin crime-ridden south-centralLos Angeles

We had a lot of fun but Ithink we developed a twist-ed sense of humor growingup around the gang-banging

and things like thatCube who lives with his

wife and four children in abeautiful home four milesfrom that Valley school saidhe found just such an oppor-tunity in 1983 when he metnoted rap artist Dr Dre Drehad moved from Compton tohis aunts home on Cubesblock

They recorded individual-ly for a while finally joiningforces with another soloartist Eazy E to form thepioneering gangsta-rapgroup NwA (Niggaz WithAttitude)

In 1989 Cube left thegroup to become a solo rap-per

He still records hitalbums but he says he findsthe music business monoto-nous compared with makingmovies

Director John Singletonkick-started Cubes actingcareer when he cast the

untested rapper in his cele-brated debut film Boyz N theHood

Although Cube began hisacting career on a seriousnote and has continued withdramatic work (Three KingsAn(lco1lda Trespass) he is bet-ter known for his comedieswhich include the twoFriday movies and ThePlayers Club his directorialdebut

He produces many of hisfilms through his productioncompany Cube Vision

After the tremendous suc-cess of the first two Fridaymovies a third wasinevitable

Since it was supposed tocome out around the holi-days Cube figured aChristmas theme might beappropriate

There has never been aChristmas movie about thehood he said

All Ive ever seen are East

Coast Christmas movies withlittle white kids playing inthe snow That has nothingto do with what I rememberabout Christmas

In Friday After Next whichCube wrote and producedhe and his cousin (played byMike Epps) get jobs as secun-ty guards in a broken-downmall after a thief dressed asSanta Claus breaks into theirapartment and robs them

Along the way they meetup with the usual Fridayassortment of strange charac-ters who inhabit the hood

In fact Cubes comediesoften poke fun of members ofhis own ethnic group

Nobody really escapesthe humor he said Thatswhat makes it OK its notone-sided We make fun ofeveryone All I worry aboutis whether its funny Im nottrying to do socialcommentary

Though Isaac Goodpasterhas never had a clear look atthe ball in any game he has

played he earned letters inbasketball and baseball and

starred in football atMontgomery County (Ky)High School in the late 1990s

Though he has 20200vision in both eyes thesenior receiver has become a

successful college player (25catches last year) at Wofforda South Carolina college thatis the smallest school p1ayingDivision I-AA football- In his story the word thatkeeps coming up is amazing

Robbed of normalstraight-ahead vision by ahereditary affliction knownas Stargardts DiseaseGoodpaster compensateswith keen peripheral visionathleticism (he has run the40-yard dash in 44 seconds)and sheer determined will

To him a thrown footballlooks like a blob kind oflike a basketball must look toeveryone else he said

I can see the white stripesand I focus in between thatbecause most of the ball isbetween those stripes

receiver overcomes vision afflictionLearning to compensate

VVithno way to know bet-ter Isaac figured everyonelooked through a giant blurwhen they focused straightahead

What Stargardts had nottaken from him was hisperipheral vision

He learned to turn hishead in the direction heneeded in order to compen-sate for his lack of straight-ahead vision

To literally look someonein the eye Isaac would needto look well above a personshead or at their knees anduse either his upper or lowerperipheral vision To catch afootball he learned to cockhis head to theside

From the beginning hefigured out ways to playsports Blessed with tremen-dous speed and quicknessIsaac managed to master allthree of the main ball sports_ baseball football basket-ball

By the time he was ajunior at MontgomeryCounty Isaac had decided toconcentrate on football

He saw it as the ticket tocollege As a senior he hadsomething of a breakout year(34 receptions offensively 87tackles aefensively)

An assistant coach fromWofford saw him on tapeand eventually offered ascholarship as a defensiveback

One can only imagine therecruiting meeting where anassistant tells the head coachWe have just offered ascholarship to a blind kid How Isaac makes football

workBecause of his sight limita-

tion Isaac devotes himselfreligiously to studying filmof Wofford opponents He has to run precisionpass routes due to his need toknow exactly from whatangle the ball will be coming

That is because he mustknow at what angle to turnhis head so he can pick upthe ball with his peripheralvision

More than full-sightedreceivers Isaac needs toknow exactly where defend-ers are going to be

Missing the point

All the amazing talkabout what hes done makesIsaac Goodpaster uncomfort-able

The way he sees it view-ing him as extraordinary

from license plates and spellwords Finds words on bill-boards

Problem was middlechild Isaac often claimed notto see the signs that wereright in front of his eyes

By the time he startedschool an eye test suggestedthat he needed glasses

He got and soon lost apair

VVhen the family wentback to the same eye clinic adifferent doctor told themthere was absolutely noth-ing wrong with that boyssight Christine said

The doctor seculatedthatone of Isaac s friends atschool had glasses and thatIsaac wanted to mimic thefriend

Isaac would be 12 andwould have seen at leastseven eye doctors before onefinally figured out that hesuffered from Stargardts

In between Isaacs par-ents would wonder whytheir otherwise intelligentson struggled so with read-ing and writing They wouldfight off several attempts toplace him in special educa-tion classes

They would puzzle overthe severe headaches thatplagued their son

On the last day of Isaacsseventh-grade year a doctorfinally told them what waswrong

Basically he couldnt seeclearly out of the front of hiseyes

Stargardts Disease whichafflicts anywhere between 1in every 1600 to 1 in every15000 children between theages of 7 and 12 cannot bereversed

The Goodpasters weredevastated - For severalweeks they tried to soothetheir son

Then we shook out ofthat and realized somethings Christine said

Mostly they realized thatbefore they knew that any-thing was wrong with Isaacthey had held him to exactlythe same standards as theirother kids Treated normally Isaachad figured out how to com-pensate for his lack of visionand was leading a remark-abl normal lifeXThat doctor that told usthere was nothing wrongwith Isaac well wrong asthat was that turned out tobe a true blessing Christinesaid

~Who knows how wetreat him if we know

Isaac Goodpaster studies in his dorm room atWofford College

totally misses the point of hisstory

Instead the lesson is thathe has refused at every stepto accept limits that wouldmake his life less than ordi-nary The world may considerme legally blind he saidbut I dont I have things I

want to do with my life and Ifind ways to do them

Fair enough But whatev-er he says playing collegefootball as a receiver whilelegally blind is totally thor-oughly and truly amazing

It is a ruthless ruthlesscompany that is breakingdown the moral fiber and thewhole aspect of organizedlabor in the United StatesRiley said

Riley showed a video thatsought to demonstrate someof the tactics wal-Martusesto discourage its workersfrom organizing

Stan Future a store man-ager who 0 appeared on the

One reason why employ-ees dont simply leave Wal-Mart to work for anothercompany is because Wal-Mart is sort of like a weirdlittle cult Riley said

I have been surprised todiscover that even thoughwe dont have an official lin-guistics department we dohave some linguistic majorsUntil this term if youdasked me what linguisticswas I wouldnt have had aclue on how to answer

The Linguistics 305 coursedescription in my handbookincludes with emphasis onmeaning sounds words andsentence formation inEnglish Since that particu-lar course is a requirementfor me I signed up to takethe class probably as cluelessafter reading the description

as after I had no idea what the

field of linguistics dealt within such depth that itrequired a whole field norwould I have taken the classif it werent requiredSounded like English to me

I have been pleasantly sur-prised to discover what thatdescription means and Ihave developed a full appre-ciation for the field of lin-guistics as I now understandit

In my search for classes totake that would serve myrequirements I turned myattention to linguistics class-es Theyre upper class cours-es fulfill upper level elective

By Tracy CurranThe Arbiter ------

University should offer more linguistic courses

Its that time of year wheneveryone is or has registeredfor classes for the springsemester Like everyone elseI encountered challenges infinding space in the classes Ineeded

The upper-level writingclasses are especially chal-lenging since there are sofew options Many of themare offered at the same timesand there also seems to be adisproportionate amount ofEnglish writing majors

Of course since Im a writ-ing major I see more of thesame in many if not all myclasses And in the bigscheme of things it may notbe that there are as manywriting majors as it seems tome there are

requirements and they covera versatile range of areaswithin the area of lan-guage(s) The down sideturned out to be that we onlyhave two professors teachinglinguistics classes

Now that Ive almost com-pleted my first course in lin-guistics I understand why itis a requirement for mostEnglish majors Though Idont feel I have any aptitudewith foreign languages Inow feel I could actuallyapproach a foreign languagewith more confidence inlearning it because of myexposure to the study of lan-guage sounds

The value of a linguisticsfoundation beneath myEnglish major has proven tobe immeasurable in all mycommunications If peopleare resistant to the rules ofsyntax a linguistics coursecant help but soften thatresistance

The linguistics field stud-ies language rather than dic-tating how language shouldbe That gives me a betterview of what the field of lin-guistic encompasses

I like the idea that some-one is studying languages asthey are and not trying tochange them

That particular aspect

Monda November 25 2002

requires a certain amount oftolerance of the differences inpeople something more peo-ple could benefit from Forme Lin~istics has peeledaway another layer of preju-dices and preconceivednotions I wasnt even aware Ihad

I have learned lingual pat-terns and information I canapply in fiction writing But Ihave also learned some of therules of prescriptive gram-mar and ~hy those r~leshave come about Knowmgsomething of the backgroundof why some things are canthelp but make me a betternonfiction writer as well

And though I see thevalue of linguistics to me asan English major I also seehow valuable linguisticscould be to sciencemajors I scientists who dealin a field riddled with Latin

A solid understanding ofthe English language parentand sister languages thathave contributed to what it istoday and what it hasevolved from is part ofwhatseparates an educated boobyfrom an educated academic

Even college administra-tions seem to imply as much

Most university I collegesprefer to hire professors whoare published In fact it

dents comprise 47 percent of the student population themajority of them dont stickaround long enough to get tothose upper level coursesThat leaves the studentsintent on actually complet-ing with few choices

Though linguistics is afield on its own its applica-tions to English - or anylanguage - are undeniableAnd since the only prerequi-site to getting into Linguistic305 is English 102 whicheveryone has to take its aneasy-access upper levelcourse

One of my talents that hasbeen a benefit to me in all myclasses has been my ability towrite Since English 101 and102 are requirements forevery student it appears thegeneral consensus agreesthat writing skills willenhance a studentslikeli-hood of success

A stronger linguisticspresence could only help inthis endeavor as well andwould provide a more solidfoundation in English that isobviously not presentlybeing addressed by the 101and 102 requirements alone

seems like the more pub-lished professors a universityhas the more prestigiousthat university is

With this in mind it seemssomewhat shortsighted ofBoise States administrationto have such a small linguis-tic contribution

More Linguistics coursescould conceivably producemore published Ipublishablestaff thus enhancing BoiseStates academic reputation

I was relieved when I real-ized I could apply linguisticscourses towards my require-

ments The huge numbers oflower-level English classeslook impressive until you getto a point where you onlyneed upper level coursesThose upper- level courseswhether they are literatureclasses or writing are a pre-mium however and requirecreativity in meeting require-ments

It says something of ouradministrations focus whenthey funnel all their teachingresources in lower~levelcourses Im being given themessage that Im not expect-ed to finish Or worse thatthe administration Ivepoured money into doesntcare whether I finish or not

I also get the message thatthough the traditional stu-

Several individuals haverecently raised legitimateconcerns about the actionstaken by ASBSU with regardto student representation inIdahos government

As the chief student lob-byist for ASBSU I would liketo take this opportunity tobriefly delineate the actionsthat ASBSU PresidentChristopher Mathias and Ihave taken thus far to ensurethat the voices of BoiseStates 17700 students areheard loud and clear

First allow me to aver thatwe at ASBSU welcome yourconcerns and suggestionsThe problem is that we oftendo not hear enough of them

Real education for thereal world Its a nice mottoisnt it Its pretty catchy androlls off the ton~e I wonderhow accurate It is thoughDoes it truly represent BoiseState University

To answer that I guess youhave to decide what the realworld is I have been led tobelieve all my life that thereal world is not here oncampus I dont have any-thing against this place butwe are still students and wedont have the stresses thatthe workplace tends to heapon peopleWe have different stressesSo if we use the corporate orbusiness world as our defini-tion as the real world I fearthis motto loses much of itsvalidi

Let~ start with theDepartment of PhilosophyPlu10sophers pride them-selves m being impracticaland useless to the businessworld - they glory in thingsthat no average person evencares about If we were real educationfor the real world whywould we even have a

action behind the scenes thatstudents often do not see

Iacknowledge that I mustdo a better job of sharing ourwork with you This semes-ter President Mathias and Ihave been leading the chargein the fight for allldaho high-er education students

Ihave had extensive con-sultations with the staff ofthe Idaho State Board ofEducation the education pol-icy advisor to GovernorKempthorne and severalmembers of the Idaho StateLegislature

In October I addressedthe Board of Education onthe issue of inter-universityequity funding and paintedin clear terms our anger thatBSU does not receive fairfunding treatment

I have also been workingto solidify the support forBoise State among Idahosmost powerful businessorganizations

1will continue such effortsbecause I am passionateabout this unlverstty its fac-ulty and its students

We will not stop there Ihave developed a five-point

agenda for Boise State stu-dents that ASBSU will vigor-ously push before theLegislature

Our agenda includes nofurther holdbacks to BoiseStates budget funding of theBoards directive on univer-sity equity funding no fur-ther cuts to the IdahoPromise Scholarship fund-ing for faculty salary increas-es and the promotion of con-struction projects on campus

Between now and the endof the semester I will meetwith State Board ofEducation officials includingState SuperintendentMarylyn Howard I will alsomeet with GovernorKempthorne and severalmembers of the Legislature

In December PresidentMathias and I will addressthe State Board of Educationand highlight our concernsabout faculty salaries andseek their support for ourlegislative agenda

We must all work togetherin this cause because thefuture of Idaho depends onwhat we as students dotoday Our message is sim-

pIeBoise State is Idahos

greatest university but it canbe better only with continuedsupport from the state ofdano

While the states budgetexigency will create substan-tial challenges for us I willnevertheless assiduouslywork to advance this mes-sage to all who will listenand even those who wont

With all of your help Iwill ensure that the 17700students of Boise State whorepresent the best of Idahosfuture are not forgotten

wife and four children in abeautiful home four milesfrom that Valley school saidhe found just such an oppor-tunity in 1983 when he metnoted rap artist Dr Dre Drehad moved from Compton tohis aunts home on Cubesblock

They recorded individual-ly for a while finally joiningforces with another soloartist Eazy E to form thepioneering gangsta-rapgroup NwA (Niggaz WithAttitude)

In 1989 Cube left thegroup to become a solo rap-per

He still records hitalbums but he says he findsthe music business monoto-nous compared with makingmovies

Director John Singletonkick-started Cubes actingcareer when he cast the

untested rapper in his cele-brated debut film Boyz N theHood

Although Cube began hisacting career on a seriousnote and has continued withdramatic work (Three KingsAn(lco1lda Trespass) he is bet-ter known for his comedieswhich include the twoFriday movies and ThePlayers Club his directorialdebut

He produces many of hisfilms through his productioncompany Cube Vision

After the tremendous suc-cess of the first two Fridaymovies a third wasinevitable

Since it was supposed tocome out around the holi-days Cube figured aChristmas theme might beappropriate

There has never been aChristmas movie about thehood he said

All Ive ever seen are East

Coast Christmas movies withlittle white kids playing inthe snow That has nothingto do with what I rememberabout Christmas

In Friday After Next whichCube wrote and producedhe and his cousin (played byMike Epps) get jobs as secun-ty guards in a broken-downmall after a thief dressed asSanta Claus breaks into theirapartment and robs them

Along the way they meetup with the usual Fridayassortment of strange charac-ters who inhabit the hood

receiver overcomes vision afflictionLearning to compensate

VVithno way to know bet-ter Isaac figured everyonelooked through a giant blurwhen they focused straightahead

What Stargardts had nottaken from him was hisperipheral vision

He learned to turn hishead in the direction heneeded in order to compen-sate for his lack of straight-ahead vision

To literally look someonein the eye Isaac would needto look well above a personshead or at their knees anduse either his upper or lowerperipheral vision To catch afootball he learned to cockhis head to theside

From the beginning hefigured out ways to playsports Blessed with tremen-dous speed and quicknessIsaac managed to master allthree of the main ball sports_ baseball football basket-ball

By the time he was ajunior at MontgomeryCounty Isaac had decided toconcentrate on football

He saw it as the ticket tocollege As a senior he hadsomething of a breakout year(34 receptions offensively 87tackles aefensively)

An assistant coach fromWofford saw him on tapeand eventually offered ascholarship as a defensiveback

One can only imagine therecruiting meeting where anassistant tells the head coachWe have just offered ascholarship to a blind kid How Isaac makes football

workBecause of his sight limita-

tion Isaac devotes himselfreligiously to studying filmof Wofford opponents He has to run precisionpass routes due to his need toknow exactly from whatangle the ball will be coming

That is because he mustknow at what angle to turnhis head so he can pick upthe ball with his peripheralvision

More than full-sightedreceivers Isaac needs toknow exactly where defend-ers are going to be

Missing the point

All the amazing talkabout what hes done makesIsaac Goodpaster uncomfort-able

The way he sees it view-ing him as extraordinary

from license plates and spellwords Finds words on bill-boards

Problem was middlechild Isaac often claimed notto see the signs that wereright in front of his eyes

By the time he startedschool an eye test suggestedthat he needed glasses

He got and soon lost apair

VVhen the family wentback to the same eye clinic adifferent doctor told themthere was absolutely noth-ing wrong with that boyssight Christine said

The doctor seculatedthatone of Isaac s friends atschool had glasses and thatIsaac wanted to mimic thefriend

Isaac would be 12 andwould have seen at leastseven eye doctors before onefinally figured out that hesuffered from Stargardts

In between Isaacs par-ents would wonder whytheir otherwise intelligentson struggled so with read-ing and writing They wouldfight off several attempts toplace him in special educa-tion classes

They would puzzle overthe severe headaches thatplagued their son

On the last day of Isaacsseventh-grade year a doctorfinally told them what waswrong

Basically he couldnt seeclearly out of the front of hiseyes

Stargardts Disease whichafflicts anywhere between 1in every 1600 to 1 in every15000 children between theages of 7 and 12 cannot bereversed

The Goodpasters weredevastated - For severalweeks they tried to soothetheir son

Then we shook out ofthat and realized somethings Christine said

Mostly they realized thatbefore they knew that any-thing was wrong with Isaacthey had held him to exactlythe same standards as theirother kids Treated normally Isaachad figured out how to com-pensate for his lack of visionand was leading a remark-abl normal lifeXThat doctor that told usthere was nothing wrongwith Isaac well wrong asthat was that turned out tobe a true blessing Christinesaid

Isaac Goodpaster studies in his dorm room atWofford College

totally misses the point of hisstory

Instead the lesson is thathe has refused at every stepto accept limits that wouldmake his life less than ordi-nary The world may considerme legally blind he saidbut I dont I have things I

want to do with my life and Ifind ways to do them

Fair enough But whatev-er he says playing collegefootball as a receiver whilelegally blind is totally thor-oughly and truly amazing

As is Isaac Goodpaster

Campus ShortsEastUnion leader takesWal-Mart to task

PROVIDENCE RIUnion Representative JimRiley of United Food andCommercial Workers Local328 said Always LowWages should replaceAlways Low Prices as Wal-Marts guarantee in a presen-tation Tuesday night

In an impassioned attackon Wal-Marts corporatepractices Riley said thecountrys largest retailer isusing illegal and threateningtactics to ensure its workersdont unionize

It is a ruthless ruthlesscompany that is breakingdown the moral fiber and thewhole aspect of organizedlabor in the United StatesRiley said

Riley showed a video thatsought to demonstrate someof the tactics wal-Martusesto discourage its workersfrom organizing

Stan Future a store man-ager who 0 appeared on the

o video described how hecame to realize he was beingused to profile people to seeif they would be open to theunions message and firethem Another woman onthe video said Wal-Martwent so far as to terminateemployees who said theword union inside thestore more than once

One reason why employ-ees dont simply leave Wal-Mart to work for anothercompany is because Wal-Mart is sort of like a weirdlittle cult Riley said

In an introductory videoshown to all new employeesactors portray workers whodisparage the idea of union-izationtelling the newcom-ers how much they have tolose by unionizing Rileysaid A clip of this Wal-Martemployee video was includ-ed in the video Riley showed

TUSCALOOSA Ala -Us District Judge MyronThompson on Monday gaveAlabama Chief Justice RoyMoore 30 days to remove hisTen Commandments monu-ment from the Alabama StateJudicial Building

Moore had the 25-tongranite monument erected inthe state building shortlyafter his appointment to theSupreme Court in November2000

It is engraved with theKing James Version of theTen Commandments andacknowledges the [udeo-Christian religion as themoral foundation of us law

After a weeklong trialThompson ruled that Moorehad violated the establish-ment clause of the FirstAmendment The clauseapplied to the states by the14th Amendment providesthat Congress shall make nolaw respecting an establish-ment of religion

I have been surprised todiscover that even thoughwe dont have an official lin-guistics department we dohave some linguistic majorsUntil this term if youdasked me what linguisticswas I wouldnt have had aclue on how to answer

The Linguistics 305 coursedescription in my handbookincludes with emphasis onmeaning sounds words andsentence formation inEnglish Since that particu-lar course is a requirementfor me I signed up to takethe class probably as cluelessafter reading the description

as after I had no idea what the

field of linguistics dealt within such depth that itrequired a whole field norwould I have taken the classif it werent requiredSounded like English to me

I have been pleasantly sur-prised to discover what thatdescription means and Ihave developed a full appre-ciation for the field of lin-guistics as I now understandit

In my search for classes totake that would serve myrequirements I turned myattention to linguistics class-es Theyre upper class cours-es fulfill upper level elective

By Tracy CurranThe Arbiter ------

University should offer more linguistic courses

Its that time of year wheneveryone is or has registeredfor classes for the springsemester Like everyone elseI encountered challenges infinding space in the classes Ineeded

The upper-level writingclasses are especially chal-lenging since there are sofew options Many of themare offered at the same timesand there also seems to be adisproportionate amount ofEnglish writing majors

Of course since Im a writ-ing major I see more of thesame in many if not all myclasses And in the bigscheme of things it may notbe that there are as manywriting majors as it seems tome there are

requirements and they covera versatile range of areaswithin the area of lan-guage(s) The down sideturned out to be that we onlyhave two professors teachinglinguistics classes

Now that Ive almost com-pleted my first course in lin-guistics I understand why itis a requirement for mostEnglish majors Though Idont feel I have any aptitudewith foreign languages Inow feel I could actuallyapproach a foreign languagewith more confidence inlearning it because of myexposure to the study of lan-guage sounds

The value of a linguisticsfoundation beneath myEnglish major has proven tobe immeasurable in all mycommunications If peopleare resistant to the rules ofsyntax a linguistics coursecant help but soften thatresistance

The linguistics field stud-ies language rather than dic-tating how language shouldbe That gives me a betterview of what the field of lin-guistic encompasses

I like the idea that some-one is studying languages asthey are and not trying tochange them

That particular aspect

Monda November 25 2002

requires a certain amount oftolerance of the differences inpeople something more peo-ple could benefit from Forme Lin~istics has peeledaway another layer of preju-dices and preconceivednotions I wasnt even aware Ihad

I have learned lingual pat-terns and information I canapply in fiction writing But Ihave also learned some of therules of prescriptive gram-mar and ~hy those r~leshave come about Knowmgsomething of the backgroundof why some things are canthelp but make me a betternonfiction writer as well

And though I see thevalue of linguistics to me asan English major I also seehow valuable linguisticscould be to sciencemajors I scientists who dealin a field riddled with Latin

A solid understanding ofthe English language parentand sister languages thathave contributed to what it istoday and what it hasevolved from is part ofwhatseparates an educated boobyfrom an educated academic

Even college administra-tions seem to imply as much

Most university I collegesprefer to hire professors whoare published In fact it

dents comprise 47 percent of the student population themajority of them dont stickaround long enough to get tothose upper level coursesThat leaves the studentsintent on actually complet-ing with few choices

Though linguistics is afield on its own its applica-tions to English - or anylanguage - are undeniableAnd since the only prerequi-site to getting into Linguistic305 is English 102 whicheveryone has to take its aneasy-access upper levelcourse

One of my talents that hasbeen a benefit to me in all myclasses has been my ability towrite Since English 101 and102 are requirements forevery student it appears thegeneral consensus agreesthat writing skills willenhance a studentslikeli-hood of success

A stronger linguisticspresence could only help inthis endeavor as well andwould provide a more solidfoundation in English that isobviously not presentlybeing addressed by the 101and 102 requirements alone

seems like the more pub-lished professors a universityhas the more prestigiousthat university is

With this in mind it seemssomewhat shortsighted ofBoise States administrationto have such a small linguis-tic contribution

More Linguistics coursescould conceivably producemore published Ipublishablestaff thus enhancing BoiseStates academic reputation

I was relieved when I real-ized I could apply linguisticscourses towards my require-

ments The huge numbers oflower-level English classeslook impressive until you getto a point where you onlyneed upper level coursesThose upper- level courseswhether they are literatureclasses or writing are a pre-mium however and requirecreativity in meeting require-ments

It says something of ouradministrations focus whenthey funnel all their teachingresources in lower~levelcourses Im being given themessage that Im not expect-ed to finish Or worse thatthe administration Ivepoured money into doesntcare whether I finish or not

I also get the message thatthough the traditional stu-

Several individuals haverecently raised legitimateconcerns about the actionstaken by ASBSU with regardto student representation inIdahos government

As the chief student lob-byist for ASBSU I would liketo take this opportunity tobriefly delineate the actionsthat ASBSU PresidentChristopher Mathias and Ihave taken thus far to ensurethat the voices of BoiseStates 17700 students areheard loud and clear

First allow me to aver thatwe at ASBSU welcome yourconcerns and suggestionsThe problem is that we oftendo not hear enough of them

Real education for thereal world Its a nice mottoisnt it Its pretty catchy androlls off the ton~e I wonderhow accurate It is thoughDoes it truly represent BoiseState University

To answer that I guess youhave to decide what the realworld is I have been led tobelieve all my life that thereal world is not here oncampus I dont have any-thing against this place butwe are still students and wedont have the stresses thatthe workplace tends to heapon peopleWe have different stressesSo if we use the corporate orbusiness world as our defini-tion as the real world I fearthis motto loses much of itsvalidi

Let~ start with theDepartment of PhilosophyPlu10sophers pride them-selves m being impracticaland useless to the businessworld - they glory in thingsthat no average person evencares about If we were real educationfor the real world whywould we even have a

action behind the scenes thatstudents often do not see

Iacknowledge that I mustdo a better job of sharing ourwork with you This semes-ter President Mathias and Ihave been leading the chargein the fight for allldaho high-er education students

Ihave had extensive con-sultations with the staff ofthe Idaho State Board ofEducation the education pol-icy advisor to GovernorKempthorne and severalmembers of the Idaho StateLegislature

In October I addressedthe Board of Education onthe issue of inter-universityequity funding and paintedin clear terms our anger thatBSU does not receive fairfunding treatment

I have also been workingto solidify the support forBoise State among Idahosmost powerful businessorganizations

1will continue such effortsbecause I am passionateabout this unlverstty its fac-ulty and its students

We will not stop there Ihave developed a five-point

agenda for Boise State stu-dents that ASBSU will vigor-ously push before theLegislature

Our agenda includes nofurther holdbacks to BoiseStates budget funding of theBoards directive on univer-sity equity funding no fur-ther cuts to the IdahoPromise Scholarship fund-ing for faculty salary increas-es and the promotion of con-struction projects on campus

Between now and the endof the semester I will meetwith State Board ofEducation officials includingState SuperintendentMarylyn Howard I will alsomeet with GovernorKempthorne and severalmembers of the Legislature

In December PresidentMathias and I will addressthe State Board of Educationand highlight our concernsabout faculty salaries andseek their support for ourlegislative agenda

We must all work togetherin this cause because thefuture of Idaho depends onwhat we as students dotoday Our message is sim-

pIeBoise State is Idahos

greatest university but it canbe better only with continuedsupport from the state ofdano

While the states budgetexigency will create substan-tial challenges for us I willnevertheless assiduouslywork to advance this mes-sage to all who will listenand even those who wont

With all of your help Iwill ensure that the 17700students of Boise State whorepresent the best of Idahosfuture are not forgotten

wife and four children in abeautiful home four milesfrom that Valley school saidhe found just such an oppor-tunity in 1983 when he metnoted rap artist Dr Dre Drehad moved from Compton tohis aunts home on Cubesblock

They recorded individual-ly for a while finally joiningforces with another soloartist Eazy E to form thepioneering gangsta-rapgroup NwA (Niggaz WithAttitude)

In 1989 Cube left thegroup to become a solo rap-per

He still records hitalbums but he says he findsthe music business monoto-nous compared with makingmovies

Director John Singletonkick-started Cubes actingcareer when he cast the

untested rapper in his cele-brated debut film Boyz N theHood

Although Cube began hisacting career on a seriousnote and has continued withdramatic work (Three KingsAn(lco1lda Trespass) he is bet-ter known for his comedieswhich include the twoFriday movies and ThePlayers Club his directorialdebut

He produces many of hisfilms through his productioncompany Cube Vision

After the tremendous suc-cess of the first two Fridaymovies a third wasinevitable

Since it was supposed tocome out around the holi-days Cube figured aChristmas theme might beappropriate

There has never been aChristmas movie about thehood he said

All Ive ever seen are East

Coast Christmas movies withlittle white kids playing inthe snow That has nothingto do with what I rememberabout Christmas

In Friday After Next whichCube wrote and producedhe and his cousin (played byMike Epps) get jobs as secun-ty guards in a broken-downmall after a thief dressed asSanta Claus breaks into theirapartment and robs them

Along the way they meetup with the usual Fridayassortment of strange charac-ters who inhabit the hood

receiver overcomes vision afflictionLearning to compensate

VVithno way to know bet-ter Isaac figured everyonelooked through a giant blurwhen they focused straightahead

What Stargardts had nottaken from him was hisperipheral vision

He learned to turn hishead in the direction heneeded in order to compen-sate for his lack of straight-ahead vision

To literally look someonein the eye Isaac would needto look well above a personshead or at their knees anduse either his upper or lowerperipheral vision To catch afootball he learned to cockhis head to theside

From the beginning hefigured out ways to playsports Blessed with tremen-dous speed and quicknessIsaac managed to master allthree of the main ball sports_ baseball football basket-ball

By the time he was ajunior at MontgomeryCounty Isaac had decided toconcentrate on football

He saw it as the ticket tocollege As a senior he hadsomething of a breakout year(34 receptions offensively 87tackles aefensively)

An assistant coach fromWofford saw him on tapeand eventually offered ascholarship as a defensiveback

One can only imagine therecruiting meeting where anassistant tells the head coachWe have just offered ascholarship to a blind kid How Isaac makes football

workBecause of his sight limita-

tion Isaac devotes himselfreligiously to studying filmof Wofford opponents He has to run precisionpass routes due to his need toknow exactly from whatangle the ball will be coming

That is because he mustknow at what angle to turnhis head so he can pick upthe ball with his peripheralvision

More than full-sightedreceivers Isaac needs toknow exactly where defend-ers are going to be

Missing the point

All the amazing talkabout what hes done makesIsaac Goodpaster uncomfort-able

The way he sees it view-ing him as extraordinary

from license plates and spellwords Finds words on bill-boards

Problem was middlechild Isaac often claimed notto see the signs that wereright in front of his eyes

By the time he startedschool an eye test suggestedthat he needed glasses

He got and soon lost apair

VVhen the family wentback to the same eye clinic adifferent doctor told themthere was absolutely noth-ing wrong with that boyssight Christine said

The doctor seculatedthatone of Isaac s friends atschool had glasses and thatIsaac wanted to mimic thefriend

Isaac would be 12 andwould have seen at leastseven eye doctors before onefinally figured out that hesuffered from Stargardts

In between Isaacs par-ents would wonder whytheir otherwise intelligentson struggled so with read-ing and writing They wouldfight off several attempts toplace him in special educa-tion classes

They would puzzle overthe severe headaches thatplagued their son

On the last day of Isaacsseventh-grade year a doctorfinally told them what waswrong

Basically he couldnt seeclearly out of the front of hiseyes

Stargardts Disease whichafflicts anywhere between 1in every 1600 to 1 in every15000 children between theages of 7 and 12 cannot bereversed

The Goodpasters weredevastated - For severalweeks they tried to soothetheir son

Then we shook out ofthat and realized somethings Christine said

Mostly they realized thatbefore they knew that any-thing was wrong with Isaacthey had held him to exactlythe same standards as theirother kids Treated normally Isaachad figured out how to com-pensate for his lack of visionand was leading a remark-abl normal lifeXThat doctor that told usthere was nothing wrongwith Isaac well wrong asthat was that turned out tobe a true blessing Christinesaid

~Who knows how wetreat him if we know

Isaac Goodpaster studies in his dorm room atWofford College

totally misses the point of hisstory

Instead the lesson is thathe has refused at every stepto accept limits that wouldmake his life less than ordi-nary The world may considerme legally blind he saidbut I dont I have things I

want to do with my life and Ifind ways to do them

Fair enough But whatev-er he says playing collegefootball as a receiver whilelegally blind is totally thor-oughly and truly amazing

As is Isaac Goodpaster

Pa e 4middot The Arbiter

Vieoints

I have been surprised todiscover that even thoughwe dont have an official lin-guistics department we dohave some linguistic majorsUntil this term if youdasked me what linguisticswas I wouldnt have had aclue on how to answer

The Linguistics 305 coursedescription in my handbookincludes with emphasis onmeaning sounds words andsentence formation inEnglish Since that particu-lar course is a requirementfor me I signed up to takethe class probably as cluelessafter reading the description

as after I had no idea what the

field of linguistics dealt within such depth that itrequired a whole field norwould I have taken the classif it werent requiredSounded like English to me

I have been pleasantly sur-prised to discover what thatdescription means and Ihave developed a full appre-ciation for the field of lin-guistics as I now understandit

In my search for classes totake that would serve myrequirements I turned myattention to linguistics class-es Theyre upper class cours-es fulfill upper level elective

By Tracy CurranThe Arbiter ------

University should offer more linguistic courses

Its that time of year wheneveryone is or has registeredfor classes for the springsemester Like everyone elseI encountered challenges infinding space in the classes Ineeded

The upper-level writingclasses are especially chal-lenging since there are sofew options Many of themare offered at the same timesand there also seems to be adisproportionate amount ofEnglish writing majors

Of course since Im a writ-ing major I see more of thesame in many if not all myclasses And in the bigscheme of things it may notbe that there are as manywriting majors as it seems tome there are

requirements and they covera versatile range of areaswithin the area of lan-guage(s) The down sideturned out to be that we onlyhave two professors teachinglinguistics classes

Now that Ive almost com-pleted my first course in lin-guistics I understand why itis a requirement for mostEnglish majors Though Idont feel I have any aptitudewith foreign languages Inow feel I could actuallyapproach a foreign languagewith more confidence inlearning it because of myexposure to the study of lan-guage sounds

The value of a linguisticsfoundation beneath myEnglish major has proven tobe immeasurable in all mycommunications If peopleare resistant to the rules ofsyntax a linguistics coursecant help but soften thatresistance

The linguistics field stud-ies language rather than dic-tating how language shouldbe That gives me a betterview of what the field of lin-guistic encompasses

I like the idea that some-one is studying languages asthey are and not trying tochange them

That particular aspect

Monda November 25 2002

requires a certain amount oftolerance of the differences inpeople something more peo-ple could benefit from Forme Lin~istics has peeledaway another layer of preju-dices and preconceivednotions I wasnt even aware Ihad

I have learned lingual pat-terns and information I canapply in fiction writing But Ihave also learned some of therules of prescriptive gram-mar and ~hy those r~leshave come about Knowmgsomething of the backgroundof why some things are canthelp but make me a betternonfiction writer as well

And though I see thevalue of linguistics to me asan English major I also seehow valuable linguisticscould be to sciencemajors I scientists who dealin a field riddled with Latin

A solid understanding ofthe English language parentand sister languages thathave contributed to what it istoday and what it hasevolved from is part ofwhatseparates an educated boobyfrom an educated academic

Even college administra-tions seem to imply as much

Most university I collegesprefer to hire professors whoare published In fact it

dents comprise 47 percent of the student population themajority of them dont stickaround long enough to get tothose upper level coursesThat leaves the studentsintent on actually complet-ing with few choices

Though linguistics is afield on its own its applica-tions to English - or anylanguage - are undeniableAnd since the only prerequi-site to getting into Linguistic305 is English 102 whicheveryone has to take its aneasy-access upper levelcourse

One of my talents that hasbeen a benefit to me in all myclasses has been my ability towrite Since English 101 and102 are requirements forevery student it appears thegeneral consensus agreesthat writing skills willenhance a studentslikeli-hood of success

A stronger linguisticspresence could only help inthis endeavor as well andwould provide a more solidfoundation in English that isobviously not presentlybeing addressed by the 101and 102 requirements alone

seems like the more pub-lished professors a universityhas the more prestigiousthat university is

With this in mind it seemssomewhat shortsighted ofBoise States administrationto have such a small linguis-tic contribution

More Linguistics coursescould conceivably producemore published Ipublishablestaff thus enhancing BoiseStates academic reputation

I was relieved when I real-ized I could apply linguisticscourses towards my require-

ments The huge numbers oflower-level English classeslook impressive until you getto a point where you onlyneed upper level coursesThose upper- level courseswhether they are literatureclasses or writing are a pre-mium however and requirecreativity in meeting require-ments

It says something of ouradministrations focus whenthey funnel all their teachingresources in lower~levelcourses Im being given themessage that Im not expect-ed to finish Or worse thatthe administration Ivepoured money into doesntcare whether I finish or not

I also get the message thatthough the traditional stu-

Several individuals haverecently raised legitimateconcerns about the actionstaken by ASBSU with regardto student representation inIdahos government

As the chief student lob-byist for ASBSU I would liketo take this opportunity tobriefly delineate the actionsthat ASBSU PresidentChristopher Mathias and Ihave taken thus far to ensurethat the voices of BoiseStates 17700 students areheard loud and clear

First allow me to aver thatwe at ASBSU welcome yourconcerns and suggestionsThe problem is that we oftendo not hear enough of them

However those express-ing criticism of our handlingof these issues need to realizethat there is substantial

Real education for thereal world Its a nice mottoisnt it Its pretty catchy androlls off the ton~e I wonderhow accurate It is thoughDoes it truly represent BoiseState University

To answer that I guess youhave to decide what the realworld is I have been led tobelieve all my life that thereal world is not here oncampus I dont have any-thing against this place butwe are still students and wedont have the stresses thatthe workplace tends to heapon peopleWe have different stressesSo if we use the corporate orbusiness world as our defini-tion as the real world I fearthis motto loses much of itsvalidi

Let~ start with theDepartment of PhilosophyPlu10sophers pride them-selves m being impracticaland useless to the businessworld - they glory in thingsthat no average person evencares about If we were real educationfor the real world whywould we even have a

action behind the scenes thatstudents often do not see

Iacknowledge that I mustdo a better job of sharing ourwork with you This semes-ter President Mathias and Ihave been leading the chargein the fight for allldaho high-er education students

Ihave had extensive con-sultations with the staff ofthe Idaho State Board ofEducation the education pol-icy advisor to GovernorKempthorne and severalmembers of the Idaho StateLegislature

In October I addressedthe Board of Education onthe issue of inter-universityequity funding and paintedin clear terms our anger thatBSU does not receive fairfunding treatment

I have also been workingto solidify the support forBoise State among Idahosmost powerful businessorganizations

1will continue such effortsbecause I am passionateabout this unlverstty its fac-ulty and its students

We will not stop there Ihave developed a five-point

agenda for Boise State stu-dents that ASBSU will vigor-ously push before theLegislature

Our agenda includes nofurther holdbacks to BoiseStates budget funding of theBoards directive on univer-sity equity funding no fur-ther cuts to the IdahoPromise Scholarship fund-ing for faculty salary increas-es and the promotion of con-struction projects on campus

Between now and the endof the semester I will meetwith State Board ofEducation officials includingState SuperintendentMarylyn Howard I will alsomeet with GovernorKempthorne and severalmembers of the Legislature

In December PresidentMathias and I will addressthe State Board of Educationand highlight our concernsabout faculty salaries andseek their support for ourlegislative agenda

We must all work togetherin this cause because thefuture of Idaho depends onwhat we as students dotoday Our message is sim-

pIeBoise State is Idahos

greatest university but it canbe better only with continuedsupport from the state ofdano

While the states budgetexigency will create substan-tial challenges for us I willnevertheless assiduouslywork to advance this mes-sage to all who will listenand even those who wont

With all of your help Iwill ensure that the 17700students of Boise State whorepresent the best of Idahosfuture are not forgotten

the reason for those isBarbershop

The film sparked a flurryof negative publicity whencivil-rights leaders attacked ascene in the movie in which abarber (played by Cedric theEntertainer) makes fun of theRev Martin Luther 19n9 [rRosa Parks and other icons ofthe civil rights movement

Cube 33 was asked if hethought the offending scenein the movie was sacrile-gious

Hell no he saidIts about being able to

laugh at yourself and to beable to laugh at life a little

and things like thatCube who lives with his

wife and four children in abeautiful home four milesfrom that Valley school saidhe found just such an oppor-tunity in 1983 when he metnoted rap artist Dr Dre Drehad moved from Compton tohis aunts home on Cubesblock

They recorded individual-ly for a while finally joiningforces with another soloartist Eazy E to form thepioneering gangsta-rapgroup NwA (Niggaz WithAttitude)

In 1989 Cube left thegroup to become a solo rap-per

He still records hitalbums but he says he findsthe music business monoto-nous compared with makingmovies

Director John Singletonkick-started Cubes actingcareer when he cast the

untested rapper in his cele-brated debut film Boyz N theHood

Although Cube began hisacting career on a seriousnote and has continued withdramatic work (Three KingsAn(lco1lda Trespass) he is bet-ter known for his comedieswhich include the twoFriday movies and ThePlayers Club his directorialdebut

He produces many of hisfilms through his productioncompany Cube Vision

After the tremendous suc-cess of the first two Fridaymovies a third wasinevitable

Since it was supposed tocome out around the holi-days Cube figured aChristmas theme might beappropriate

There has never been aChristmas movie about thehood he said

All Ive ever seen are East

Coast Christmas movies withlittle white kids playing inthe snow That has nothingto do with what I rememberabout Christmas

In Friday After Next whichCube wrote and producedhe and his cousin (played byMike Epps) get jobs as secun-ty guards in a broken-downmall after a thief dressed asSanta Claus breaks into theirapartment and robs them

Along the way they meetup with the usual Fridayassortment of strange charac-ters who inhabit the hood

In fact Cubes comediesoften poke fun of members ofhis own ethnic group

Nobody really escapesthe humor he said Thatswhat makes it OK its notone-sided We make fun ofeveryone All I worry aboutis whether its funny Im nottrying to do socialcommentary

Though Isaac Goodpasterhas never had a clear look atthe ball in any game he has

played he earned letters inbasketball and baseball and

starred in football atMontgomery County (Ky)High School in the late 1990s

Though he has 20200vision in both eyes thesenior receiver has become a

successful college player (25catches last year) at Wofforda South Carolina college thatis the smallest school p1ayingDivision I-AA football- In his story the word thatkeeps coming up is amazing

To him a thrown footballlooks like a blob kind oflike a basketball must look toeveryone else he said

I can see the white stripesand I focus in between thatbecause most of the ball isbetween those stripes

receiver overcomes vision afflictionLearning to compensate

VVithno way to know bet-ter Isaac figured everyonelooked through a giant blurwhen they focused straightahead

What Stargardts had nottaken from him was hisperipheral vision

He learned to turn hishead in the direction heneeded in order to compen-sate for his lack of straight-ahead vision

To literally look someonein the eye Isaac would needto look well above a personshead or at their knees anduse either his upper or lowerperipheral vision To catch afootball he learned to cockhis head to theside

From the beginning hefigured out ways to playsports Blessed with tremen-dous speed and quicknessIsaac managed to master allthree of the main ball sports_ baseball football basket-ball

By the time he was ajunior at MontgomeryCounty Isaac had decided toconcentrate on football

He saw it as the ticket tocollege As a senior he hadsomething of a breakout year(34 receptions offensively 87tackles aefensively)

An assistant coach fromWofford saw him on tapeand eventually offered ascholarship as a defensiveback

One can only imagine therecruiting meeting where anassistant tells the head coachWe have just offered ascholarship to a blind kid How Isaac makes football

workBecause of his sight limita-

tion Isaac devotes himselfreligiously to studying filmof Wofford opponents He has to run precisionpass routes due to his need toknow exactly from whatangle the ball will be coming

That is because he mustknow at what angle to turnhis head so he can pick upthe ball with his peripheralvision

More than full-sightedreceivers Isaac needs toknow exactly where defend-ers are going to be

Missing the point

All the amazing talkabout what hes done makesIsaac Goodpaster uncomfort-able

The way he sees it view-ing him as extraordinary

from license plates and spellwords Finds words on bill-boards

Problem was middlechild Isaac often claimed notto see the signs that wereright in front of his eyes

By the time he startedschool an eye test suggestedthat he needed glasses

He got and soon lost apair

VVhen the family wentback to the same eye clinic adifferent doctor told themthere was absolutely noth-ing wrong with that boyssight Christine said

The doctor seculatedthatone of Isaac s friends atschool had glasses and thatIsaac wanted to mimic thefriend

Isaac would be 12 andwould have seen at leastseven eye doctors before onefinally figured out that hesuffered from Stargardts

In between Isaacs par-ents would wonder whytheir otherwise intelligentson struggled so with read-ing and writing They wouldfight off several attempts toplace him in special educa-tion classes

They would puzzle overthe severe headaches thatplagued their son

On the last day of Isaacsseventh-grade year a doctorfinally told them what waswrong

Basically he couldnt seeclearly out of the front of hiseyes

Stargardts Disease whichafflicts anywhere between 1in every 1600 to 1 in every15000 children between theages of 7 and 12 cannot bereversed

The Goodpasters weredevastated - For severalweeks they tried to soothetheir son

Then we shook out ofthat and realized somethings Christine said

Mostly they realized thatbefore they knew that any-thing was wrong with Isaacthey had held him to exactlythe same standards as theirother kids Treated normally Isaachad figured out how to com-pensate for his lack of visionand was leading a remark-abl normal lifeXThat doctor that told usthere was nothing wrongwith Isaac well wrong asthat was that turned out tobe a true blessing Christinesaid

~Who knows how wetreat him if we know

Isaac Goodpaster studies in his dorm room atWofford College

totally misses the point of hisstory

Instead the lesson is thathe has refused at every stepto accept limits that wouldmake his life less than ordi-nary The world may considerme legally blind he saidbut I dont I have things I

want to do with my life and Ifind ways to do them

Fair enough But whatev-er he says playing collegefootball as a receiver whilelegally blind is totally thor-oughly and truly amazing

I have been surprised todiscover that even thoughwe dont have an official lin-guistics department we dohave some linguistic majorsUntil this term if youdasked me what linguisticswas I wouldnt have had aclue on how to answer

The Linguistics 305 coursedescription in my handbookincludes with emphasis onmeaning sounds words andsentence formation inEnglish Since that particu-lar course is a requirementfor me I signed up to takethe class probably as cluelessafter reading the description

as after I had no idea what the

field of linguistics dealt within such depth that itrequired a whole field norwould I have taken the classif it werent requiredSounded like English to me

I have been pleasantly sur-prised to discover what thatdescription means and Ihave developed a full appre-ciation for the field of lin-guistics as I now understandit

In my search for classes totake that would serve myrequirements I turned myattention to linguistics class-es Theyre upper class cours-es fulfill upper level elective

By Tracy CurranThe Arbiter ------

University should offer more linguistic courses

Its that time of year wheneveryone is or has registeredfor classes for the springsemester Like everyone elseI encountered challenges infinding space in the classes Ineeded

The upper-level writingclasses are especially chal-lenging since there are sofew options Many of themare offered at the same timesand there also seems to be adisproportionate amount ofEnglish writing majors

Of course since Im a writ-ing major I see more of thesame in many if not all myclasses And in the bigscheme of things it may notbe that there are as manywriting majors as it seems tome there are

requirements and they covera versatile range of areaswithin the area of lan-guage(s) The down sideturned out to be that we onlyhave two professors teachinglinguistics classes

Now that Ive almost com-pleted my first course in lin-guistics I understand why itis a requirement for mostEnglish majors Though Idont feel I have any aptitudewith foreign languages Inow feel I could actuallyapproach a foreign languagewith more confidence inlearning it because of myexposure to the study of lan-guage sounds

The value of a linguisticsfoundation beneath myEnglish major has proven tobe immeasurable in all mycommunications If peopleare resistant to the rules ofsyntax a linguistics coursecant help but soften thatresistance

The linguistics field stud-ies language rather than dic-tating how language shouldbe That gives me a betterview of what the field of lin-guistic encompasses

I like the idea that some-one is studying languages asthey are and not trying tochange them

That particular aspect

Monda November 25 2002

requires a certain amount oftolerance of the differences inpeople something more peo-ple could benefit from Forme Lin~istics has peeledaway another layer of preju-dices and preconceivednotions I wasnt even aware Ihad

I have learned lingual pat-terns and information I canapply in fiction writing But Ihave also learned some of therules of prescriptive gram-mar and ~hy those r~leshave come about Knowmgsomething of the backgroundof why some things are canthelp but make me a betternonfiction writer as well

And though I see thevalue of linguistics to me asan English major I also seehow valuable linguisticscould be to sciencemajors I scientists who dealin a field riddled with Latin

A solid understanding ofthe English language parentand sister languages thathave contributed to what it istoday and what it hasevolved from is part ofwhatseparates an educated boobyfrom an educated academic

Even college administra-tions seem to imply as much

Most university I collegesprefer to hire professors whoare published In fact it

dents comprise 47 percent of the student population themajority of them dont stickaround long enough to get tothose upper level coursesThat leaves the studentsintent on actually complet-ing with few choices

Though linguistics is afield on its own its applica-tions to English - or anylanguage - are undeniableAnd since the only prerequi-site to getting into Linguistic305 is English 102 whicheveryone has to take its aneasy-access upper levelcourse

One of my talents that hasbeen a benefit to me in all myclasses has been my ability towrite Since English 101 and102 are requirements forevery student it appears thegeneral consensus agreesthat writing skills willenhance a studentslikeli-hood of success

A stronger linguisticspresence could only help inthis endeavor as well andwould provide a more solidfoundation in English that isobviously not presentlybeing addressed by the 101and 102 requirements alone

seems like the more pub-lished professors a universityhas the more prestigiousthat university is

With this in mind it seemssomewhat shortsighted ofBoise States administrationto have such a small linguis-tic contribution

More Linguistics coursescould conceivably producemore published Ipublishablestaff thus enhancing BoiseStates academic reputation

I was relieved when I real-ized I could apply linguisticscourses towards my require-

ments The huge numbers oflower-level English classeslook impressive until you getto a point where you onlyneed upper level coursesThose upper- level courseswhether they are literatureclasses or writing are a pre-mium however and requirecreativity in meeting require-ments

It says something of ouradministrations focus whenthey funnel all their teachingresources in lower~levelcourses Im being given themessage that Im not expect-ed to finish Or worse thatthe administration Ivepoured money into doesntcare whether I finish or not

I also get the message thatthough the traditional stu-

Several individuals haverecently raised legitimateconcerns about the actionstaken by ASBSU with regardto student representation inIdahos government

As the chief student lob-byist for ASBSU I would liketo take this opportunity tobriefly delineate the actionsthat ASBSU PresidentChristopher Mathias and Ihave taken thus far to ensurethat the voices of BoiseStates 17700 students areheard loud and clear

First allow me to aver thatwe at ASBSU welcome yourconcerns and suggestionsThe problem is that we oftendo not hear enough of them

Real education for thereal world Its a nice mottoisnt it Its pretty catchy androlls off the ton~e I wonderhow accurate It is thoughDoes it truly represent BoiseState University

To answer that I guess youhave to decide what the realworld is I have been led tobelieve all my life that thereal world is not here oncampus I dont have any-thing against this place butwe are still students and wedont have the stresses thatthe workplace tends to heapon peopleWe have different stressesSo if we use the corporate orbusiness world as our defini-tion as the real world I fearthis motto loses much of itsvalidi

Let~ start with theDepartment of PhilosophyPlu10sophers pride them-selves m being impracticaland useless to the businessworld - they glory in thingsthat no average person evencares about If we were real educationfor the real world whywould we even have a

action behind the scenes thatstudents often do not see

Iacknowledge that I mustdo a better job of sharing ourwork with you This semes-ter President Mathias and Ihave been leading the chargein the fight for allldaho high-er education students

Ihave had extensive con-sultations with the staff ofthe Idaho State Board ofEducation the education pol-icy advisor to GovernorKempthorne and severalmembers of the Idaho StateLegislature

In October I addressedthe Board of Education onthe issue of inter-universityequity funding and paintedin clear terms our anger thatBSU does not receive fairfunding treatment

I have also been workingto solidify the support forBoise State among Idahosmost powerful businessorganizations

1will continue such effortsbecause I am passionateabout this unlverstty its fac-ulty and its students

We will not stop there Ihave developed a five-point

agenda for Boise State stu-dents that ASBSU will vigor-ously push before theLegislature

Our agenda includes nofurther holdbacks to BoiseStates budget funding of theBoards directive on univer-sity equity funding no fur-ther cuts to the IdahoPromise Scholarship fund-ing for faculty salary increas-es and the promotion of con-struction projects on campus

Between now and the endof the semester I will meetwith State Board ofEducation officials includingState SuperintendentMarylyn Howard I will alsomeet with GovernorKempthorne and severalmembers of the Legislature

In December PresidentMathias and I will addressthe State Board of Educationand highlight our concernsabout faculty salaries andseek their support for ourlegislative agenda

We must all work togetherin this cause because thefuture of Idaho depends onwhat we as students dotoday Our message is sim-

pIeBoise State is Idahos

greatest university but it canbe better only with continuedsupport from the state ofdano

While the states budgetexigency will create substan-tial challenges for us I willnevertheless assiduouslywork to advance this mes-sage to all who will listenand even those who wont

With all of your help Iwill ensure that the 17700students of Boise State whorepresent the best of Idahosfuture are not forgotten

and things like thatCube who lives with his

wife and four children in abeautiful home four milesfrom that Valley school saidhe found just such an oppor-tunity in 1983 when he metnoted rap artist Dr Dre Drehad moved from Compton tohis aunts home on Cubesblock

They recorded individual-ly for a while finally joiningforces with another soloartist Eazy E to form thepioneering gangsta-rapgroup NwA (Niggaz WithAttitude)

In 1989 Cube left thegroup to become a solo rap-per

He still records hitalbums but he says he findsthe music business monoto-nous compared with makingmovies

Director John Singletonkick-started Cubes actingcareer when he cast the

untested rapper in his cele-brated debut film Boyz N theHood

Although Cube began hisacting career on a seriousnote and has continued withdramatic work (Three KingsAn(lco1lda Trespass) he is bet-ter known for his comedieswhich include the twoFriday movies and ThePlayers Club his directorialdebut

He produces many of hisfilms through his productioncompany Cube Vision

After the tremendous suc-cess of the first two Fridaymovies a third wasinevitable

Since it was supposed tocome out around the holi-days Cube figured aChristmas theme might beappropriate

There has never been aChristmas movie about thehood he said

All Ive ever seen are East

Coast Christmas movies withlittle white kids playing inthe snow That has nothingto do with what I rememberabout Christmas

In Friday After Next whichCube wrote and producedhe and his cousin (played byMike Epps) get jobs as secun-ty guards in a broken-downmall after a thief dressed asSanta Claus breaks into theirapartment and robs them

Along the way they meetup with the usual Fridayassortment of strange charac-ters who inhabit the hood

In fact Cubes comediesoften poke fun of members ofhis own ethnic group

Nobody really escapesthe humor he said Thatswhat makes it OK its notone-sided We make fun ofeveryone All I worry aboutis whether its funny Im nottrying to do socialcommentary

[College By Mark Story~ Knight Ridder Newspapers -c It is a moment frozen in

timeA receiver from tiny

Wofford College soaring above the comer of the end

zone to make a spectacular touchdown catch last season~ against Clemson The catch was one of 22

touchdown receptionsscored against the Tigers lastseason but today we bringthis retro moment to yourattention for one reason Thereceiver is legally blind

Though Isaac Goodpasterhas never had a clear look atthe ball in any game he has

played he earned letters inbasketball and baseball and

starred in football atMontgomery County (Ky)High School in the late 1990s

Though he has 20200vision in both eyes thesenior receiver has become a

successful college player (25catches last year) at Wofforda South Carolina college thatis the smallest school p1ayingDivision I-AA football- In his story the word thatkeeps coming up is amazing

Robbed of normalstraight-ahead vision by ahereditary affliction knownas Stargardts DiseaseGoodpaster compensateswith keen peripheral visionathleticism (he has run the40-yard dash in 44 seconds)and sheer determined will

To him a thrown footballlooks like a blob kind oflike a basketball must look toeveryone else he said

I can see the white stripesand I focus in between thatbecause most of the ball isbetween those stripes

Says Wofford Coach MikeAyers With Ike every dayis amazing when you thinkabout what he does-

If they gave a HeismanTrophy solely for big oddsbested Isaac Goodpasterwould be this seasons pro-hibitive favorite

Blown diagnosis

receiver overcomes vision afflictionLearning to compensate

VVithno way to know bet-ter Isaac figured everyonelooked through a giant blurwhen they focused straightahead

What Stargardts had nottaken from him was hisperipheral vision

He learned to turn hishead in the direction heneeded in order to compen-sate for his lack of straight-ahead vision

To literally look someonein the eye Isaac would needto look well above a personshead or at their knees anduse either his upper or lowerperipheral vision To catch afootball he learned to cockhis head to theside

From the beginning hefigured out ways to playsports Blessed with tremen-dous speed and quicknessIsaac managed to master allthree of the main ball sports_ baseball football basket-ball

By the time he was ajunior at MontgomeryCounty Isaac had decided toconcentrate on football

He saw it as the ticket tocollege As a senior he hadsomething of a breakout year(34 receptions offensively 87tackles aefensively)

An assistant coach fromWofford saw him on tapeand eventually offered ascholarship as a defensiveback

One can only imagine therecruiting meeting where anassistant tells the head coachWe have just offered ascholarship to a blind kid How Isaac makes football

workBecause of his sight limita-

tion Isaac devotes himselfreligiously to studying filmof Wofford opponents He has to run precisionpass routes due to his need toknow exactly from whatangle the ball will be coming

That is because he mustknow at what angle to turnhis head so he can pick upthe ball with his peripheralvision

More than full-sightedreceivers Isaac needs toknow exactly where defend-ers are going to be

Missing the point

All the amazing talkabout what hes done makesIsaac Goodpaster uncomfort-able

The way he sees it view-ing him as extraordinary

from license plates and spellwords Finds words on bill-boards

Problem was middlechild Isaac often claimed notto see the signs that wereright in front of his eyes

By the time he startedschool an eye test suggestedthat he needed glasses

He got and soon lost apair

VVhen the family wentback to the same eye clinic adifferent doctor told themthere was absolutely noth-ing wrong with that boyssight Christine said

The doctor seculatedthatone of Isaac s friends atschool had glasses and thatIsaac wanted to mimic thefriend

Isaac would be 12 andwould have seen at leastseven eye doctors before onefinally figured out that hesuffered from Stargardts

In between Isaacs par-ents would wonder whytheir otherwise intelligentson struggled so with read-ing and writing They wouldfight off several attempts toplace him in special educa-tion classes

They would puzzle overthe severe headaches thatplagued their son

On the last day of Isaacsseventh-grade year a doctorfinally told them what waswrong

Basically he couldnt seeclearly out of the front of hiseyes

Stargardts Disease whichafflicts anywhere between 1in every 1600 to 1 in every15000 children between theages of 7 and 12 cannot bereversed

The Goodpasters weredevastated - For severalweeks they tried to soothetheir son

Then we shook out ofthat and realized somethings Christine said

Mostly they realized thatbefore they knew that any-thing was wrong with Isaacthey had held him to exactlythe same standards as theirother kids Treated normally Isaachad figured out how to com-pensate for his lack of visionand was leading a remark-abl normal lifeXThat doctor that told usthere was nothing wrongwith Isaac well wrong asthat was that turned out tobe a true blessing Christinesaid

~Who knows how wetreat him if we know

Isaac Goodpaster studies in his dorm room atWofford College

totally misses the point of hisstory

Instead the lesson is thathe has refused at every stepto accept limits that wouldmake his life less than ordi-nary The world may considerme legally blind he saidbut I dont I have things I

want to do with my life and Ifind ways to do them

Fair enough But whatev-er he says playing collegefootball as a receiver whilelegally blind is totally thor-oughly and truly amazing

As is Isaac Goodpaster

The sound of flutes willpermeate the HemingwayCenter tonight when BoiseState Flute Choir a newensemble presents their firstperformance promising lis-teners a rare and specialtreat

The ensemble offers thoseunfamiliar with the flute asurprisingly diverse concertgoing beyond the usual clas-sical fare

The show will includecontemporary and classicalpieces featuring BenjaminBoones Over tile Edge a workincorporating a rock n roll-flair and Joshua MissalsRondo Caprice which pre-serves a classical nature

Tyson is hard at workpreparing her students fortheir debut

I

the reason for those isBarbershop

The film sparked a flurryof negative publicity whencivil-rights leaders attacked ascene in the movie in which abarber (played by Cedric theEntertainer) makes fun of theRev Martin Luther 19n9 [rRosa Parks and other icons ofthe civil rights movement

Cube 33 was asked if hethought the offending scenein the movie was sacrile-gious

Hell no he saidIts about being able to

laugh at yourself and to beable to laugh at life a little

Born OShea Jackson theraJper said he remembers achildhood filled with laugh-ter even though he grew upin crime-ridden south-centralLos Angeles

We had a lot of fun but Ithink we developed a twist-ed sense of humor growingup around the gang-banging

The Idaho Flute Society agroup of professional flutiststhat includes students of alllevels and amateur playerspromotes their goals through concerts and workshops Inthe coming weeks IdahoFlute Society will be present-ing a concert featuring itsmembers

and things like thatCube who lives with his

wife and four children in abeautiful home four milesfrom that Valley school saidhe found just such an oppor-tunity in 1983 when he metnoted rap artist Dr Dre Drehad moved from Compton tohis aunts home on Cubesblock

They recorded individual-ly for a while finally joiningforces with another soloartist Eazy E to form thepioneering gangsta-rapgroup NwA (Niggaz WithAttitude)

In 1989 Cube left thegroup to become a solo rap-per

He still records hitalbums but he says he findsthe music business monoto-nous compared with makingmovies

Director John Singletonkick-started Cubes actingcareer when he cast the

untested rapper in his cele-brated debut film Boyz N theHood

Although Cube began hisacting career on a seriousnote and has continued withdramatic work (Three KingsAn(lco1lda Trespass) he is bet-ter known for his comedieswhich include the twoFriday movies and ThePlayers Club his directorialdebut

He produces many of hisfilms through his productioncompany Cube Vision

After the tremendous suc-cess of the first two Fridaymovies a third wasinevitable

Since it was supposed tocome out around the holi-days Cube figured aChristmas theme might beappropriate

There has never been aChristmas movie about thehood he said

All Ive ever seen are East

Coast Christmas movies withlittle white kids playing inthe snow That has nothingto do with what I rememberabout Christmas

In Friday After Next whichCube wrote and producedhe and his cousin (played byMike Epps) get jobs as secun-ty guards in a broken-downmall after a thief dressed asSanta Claus breaks into theirapartment and robs them

Along the way they meetup with the usual Fridayassortment of strange charac-ters who inhabit the hood

In fact Cubes comediesoften poke fun of members ofhis own ethnic group

Nobody really escapesthe humor he said Thatswhat makes it OK its notone-sided We make fun ofeveryone All I worry aboutis whether its funny Im nottrying to do socialcommentary

Though Isaac Goodpasterhas never had a clear look atthe ball in any game he has

played he earned letters inbasketball and baseball and

starred in football atMontgomery County (Ky)High School in the late 1990s

Though he has 20200vision in both eyes thesenior receiver has become a

successful college player (25catches last year) at Wofforda South Carolina college thatis the smallest school p1ayingDivision I-AA football- In his story the word thatkeeps coming up is amazing

Robbed of normalstraight-ahead vision by ahereditary affliction knownas Stargardts DiseaseGoodpaster compensateswith keen peripheral visionathleticism (he has run the40-yard dash in 44 seconds)and sheer determined will

To him a thrown footballlooks like a blob kind oflike a basketball must look toeveryone else he said

I can see the white stripesand I focus in between thatbecause most of the ball isbetween those stripes

Says Wofford Coach MikeAyers With Ike every dayis amazing when you thinkabout what he does-

If they gave a HeismanTrophy solely for big oddsbested Isaac Goodpasterwould be this seasons pro-hibitive favorite

receiver overcomes vision afflictionLearning to compensate

VVithno way to know bet-ter Isaac figured everyonelooked through a giant blurwhen they focused straightahead

What Stargardts had nottaken from him was hisperipheral vision

He learned to turn hishead in the direction heneeded in order to compen-sate for his lack of straight-ahead vision

To literally look someonein the eye Isaac would needto look well above a personshead or at their knees anduse either his upper or lowerperipheral vision To catch afootball he learned to cockhis head to theside

From the beginning hefigured out ways to playsports Blessed with tremen-dous speed and quicknessIsaac managed to master allthree of the main ball sports_ baseball football basket-ball

By the time he was ajunior at MontgomeryCounty Isaac had decided toconcentrate on football

He saw it as the ticket tocollege As a senior he hadsomething of a breakout year(34 receptions offensively 87tackles aefensively)

An assistant coach fromWofford saw him on tapeand eventually offered ascholarship as a defensiveback

One can only imagine therecruiting meeting where anassistant tells the head coachWe have just offered ascholarship to a blind kid How Isaac makes football

workBecause of his sight limita-

tion Isaac devotes himselfreligiously to studying filmof Wofford opponents He has to run precisionpass routes due to his need toknow exactly from whatangle the ball will be coming

That is because he mustknow at what angle to turnhis head so he can pick upthe ball with his peripheralvision

More than full-sightedreceivers Isaac needs toknow exactly where defend-ers are going to be

Missing the point

All the amazing talkabout what hes done makesIsaac Goodpaster uncomfort-able

The way he sees it view-ing him as extraordinary

from license plates and spellwords Finds words on bill-boards

Problem was middlechild Isaac often claimed notto see the signs that wereright in front of his eyes

By the time he startedschool an eye test suggestedthat he needed glasses

He got and soon lost apair

VVhen the family wentback to the same eye clinic adifferent doctor told themthere was absolutely noth-ing wrong with that boyssight Christine said

The doctor seculatedthatone of Isaac s friends atschool had glasses and thatIsaac wanted to mimic thefriend

Isaac would be 12 andwould have seen at leastseven eye doctors before onefinally figured out that hesuffered from Stargardts

In between Isaacs par-ents would wonder whytheir otherwise intelligentson struggled so with read-ing and writing They wouldfight off several attempts toplace him in special educa-tion classes

They would puzzle overthe severe headaches thatplagued their son

On the last day of Isaacsseventh-grade year a doctorfinally told them what waswrong

Basically he couldnt seeclearly out of the front of hiseyes

Stargardts Disease whichafflicts anywhere between 1in every 1600 to 1 in every15000 children between theages of 7 and 12 cannot bereversed

The Goodpasters weredevastated - For severalweeks they tried to soothetheir son

Then we shook out ofthat and realized somethings Christine said

Mostly they realized thatbefore they knew that any-thing was wrong with Isaacthey had held him to exactlythe same standards as theirother kids Treated normally Isaachad figured out how to com-pensate for his lack of visionand was leading a remark-abl normal lifeXThat doctor that told usthere was nothing wrongwith Isaac well wrong asthat was that turned out tobe a true blessing Christinesaid

~Who knows how wetreat him if we know

Isaac Goodpaster studies in his dorm room atWofford College

totally misses the point of hisstory

Instead the lesson is thathe has refused at every stepto accept limits that wouldmake his life less than ordi-nary The world may considerme legally blind he saidbut I dont I have things I

want to do with my life and Ifind ways to do them

Fair enough But whatev-er he says playing collegefootball as a receiver whilelegally blind is totally thor-oughly and truly amazing

As is Isaac Goodpaster

[College By Mark Story~ Knight Ridder Newspapers -c It is a moment frozen in

timeA receiver from tiny

Wofford College soaring above the comer of the end

zone to make a spectacular touchdown catch last season~ against Clemson The catch was one of 22

touchdown receptionsscored against the Tigers lastseason but today we bringthis retro moment to yourattention for one reason Thereceiver is legally blind

Though Isaac Goodpasterhas never had a clear look atthe ball in any game he has

played he earned letters inbasketball and baseball and

starred in football atMontgomery County (Ky)High School in the late 1990s

Though he has 20200vision in both eyes thesenior receiver has become a

successful college player (25catches last year) at Wofforda South Carolina college thatis the smallest school p1ayingDivision I-AA football- In his story the word thatkeeps coming up is amazing

Robbed of normalstraight-ahead vision by ahereditary affliction knownas Stargardts DiseaseGoodpaster compensateswith keen peripheral visionathleticism (he has run the40-yard dash in 44 seconds)and sheer determined will

To him a thrown footballlooks like a blob kind oflike a basketball must look toeveryone else he said

I can see the white stripesand I focus in between thatbecause most of the ball isbetween those stripes

Says Wofford Coach MikeAyers With Ike every dayis amazing when you thinkabout what he does-

If they gave a HeismanTrophy solely for big oddsbested Isaac Goodpasterwould be this seasons pro-hibitive favorite

Blown diagnosis

For families blessings cancome in the most unexpectedways Even in a completelyblown medical diagnosis

When Stephen andChristine Goodpasters threekids were young and theirparents took them on cartrips Christine would oftenpass the time playing sightgames with her kids

receiver overcomes vision afflictionLearning to compensate

VVithno way to know bet-ter Isaac figured everyonelooked through a giant blurwhen they focused straightahead

What Stargardts had nottaken from him was hisperipheral vision

He learned to turn hishead in the direction heneeded in order to compen-sate for his lack of straight-ahead vision

To literally look someonein the eye Isaac would needto look well above a personshead or at their knees anduse either his upper or lowerperipheral vision To catch afootball he learned to cockhis head to theside

From the beginning hefigured out ways to playsports Blessed with tremen-dous speed and quicknessIsaac managed to master allthree of the main ball sports_ baseball football basket-ball

By the time he was ajunior at MontgomeryCounty Isaac had decided toconcentrate on football

He saw it as the ticket tocollege As a senior he hadsomething of a breakout year(34 receptions offensively 87tackles aefensively)

An assistant coach fromWofford saw him on tapeand eventually offered ascholarship as a defensiveback

One can only imagine therecruiting meeting where anassistant tells the head coachWe have just offered ascholarship to a blind kid How Isaac makes football

workBecause of his sight limita-

tion Isaac devotes himselfreligiously to studying filmof Wofford opponents He has to run precisionpass routes due to his need toknow exactly from whatangle the ball will be coming

That is because he mustknow at what angle to turnhis head so he can pick upthe ball with his peripheralvision

More than full-sightedreceivers Isaac needs toknow exactly where defend-ers are going to be

Missing the point

All the amazing talkabout what hes done makesIsaac Goodpaster uncomfort-able

The way he sees it view-ing him as extraordinary

from license plates and spellwords Finds words on bill-boards

Problem was middlechild Isaac often claimed notto see the signs that wereright in front of his eyes

By the time he startedschool an eye test suggestedthat he needed glasses

He got and soon lost apair

VVhen the family wentback to the same eye clinic adifferent doctor told themthere was absolutely noth-ing wrong with that boyssight Christine said

The doctor seculatedthatone of Isaac s friends atschool had glasses and thatIsaac wanted to mimic thefriend

Isaac would be 12 andwould have seen at leastseven eye doctors before onefinally figured out that hesuffered from Stargardts

In between Isaacs par-ents would wonder whytheir otherwise intelligentson struggled so with read-ing and writing They wouldfight off several attempts toplace him in special educa-tion classes

They would puzzle overthe severe headaches thatplagued their son

On the last day of Isaacsseventh-grade year a doctorfinally told them what waswrong

Basically he couldnt seeclearly out of the front of hiseyes

Stargardts Disease whichafflicts anywhere between 1in every 1600 to 1 in every15000 children between theages of 7 and 12 cannot bereversed

The Goodpasters weredevastated - For severalweeks they tried to soothetheir son

Then we shook out ofthat and realized somethings Christine said

Mostly they realized thatbefore they knew that any-thing was wrong with Isaacthey had held him to exactlythe same standards as theirother kids Treated normally Isaachad figured out how to com-pensate for his lack of visionand was leading a remark-abl normal lifeXThat doctor that told usthere was nothing wrongwith Isaac well wrong asthat was that turned out tobe a true blessing Christinesaid

~Who knows how wetreat him if we know

Isaac Goodpaster studies in his dorm room atWofford College

totally misses the point of hisstory

Instead the lesson is thathe has refused at every stepto accept limits that wouldmake his life less than ordi-nary The world may considerme legally blind he saidbut I dont I have things I

want to do with my life and Ifind ways to do them

Fair enough But whatev-er he says playing collegefootball as a receiver whilelegally blind is totally thor-oughly and truly amazing

As is Isaac Goodpaster

[College By Mark Story~ Knight Ridder Newspapers -c It is a moment frozen in

timeA receiver from tiny

Wofford College soaring above the comer of the end

zone to make a spectacular touchdown catch last season~ against Clemson The catch was one of 22

touchdown receptionsscored against the Tigers lastseason but today we bringthis retro moment to yourattention for one reason Thereceiver is legally blind

Though Isaac Goodpasterhas never had a clear look atthe ball in any game he has

played he earned letters inbasketball and baseball and

starred in football atMontgomery County (Ky)High School in the late 1990s

Though he has 20200vision in both eyes thesenior receiver has become a

successful college player (25catches last year) at Wofforda South Carolina college thatis the smallest school p1ayingDivision I-AA football- In his story the word thatkeeps coming up is amazing

Robbed of normalstraight-ahead vision by ahereditary affliction knownas Stargardts DiseaseGoodpaster compensateswith keen peripheral visionathleticism (he has run the40-yard dash in 44 seconds)and sheer determined will

To him a thrown footballlooks like a blob kind oflike a basketball must look toeveryone else he said

I can see the white stripesand I focus in between thatbecause most of the ball isbetween those stripes

Says Wofford Coach MikeAyers With Ike every dayis amazing when you thinkabout what he does-

If they gave a HeismanTrophy solely for big oddsbested Isaac Goodpasterwould be this seasons pro-hibitive favorite

Blown diagnosis

For families blessings cancome in the most unexpectedways Even in a completelyblown medical diagnosis

When Stephen andChristine Goodpasters threekids were young and theirparents took them on cartrips Christine would oftenpass the time playing sightgames with her kids

receiver overcomes vision afflictionLearning to compensate

VVithno way to know bet-ter Isaac figured everyonelooked through a giant blurwhen they focused straightahead

What Stargardts had nottaken from him was hisperipheral vision

He learned to turn hishead in the direction heneeded in order to compen-sate for his lack of straight-ahead vision

To literally look someonein the eye Isaac would needto look well above a personshead or at their knees anduse either his upper or lowerperipheral vision To catch afootball he learned to cockhis head to theside

From the beginning hefigured out ways to playsports Blessed with tremen-dous speed and quicknessIsaac managed to master allthree of the main ball sports_ baseball football basket-ball

By the time he was ajunior at MontgomeryCounty Isaac had decided toconcentrate on football

He saw it as the ticket tocollege As a senior he hadsomething of a breakout year(34 receptions offensively 87tackles aefensively)

An assistant coach fromWofford saw him on tapeand eventually offered ascholarship as a defensiveback

One can only imagine therecruiting meeting where anassistant tells the head coachWe have just offered ascholarship to a blind kid How Isaac makes football

workBecause of his sight limita-

tion Isaac devotes himselfreligiously to studying filmof Wofford opponents He has to run precisionpass routes due to his need toknow exactly from whatangle the ball will be coming

That is because he mustknow at what angle to turnhis head so he can pick upthe ball with his peripheralvision

More than full-sightedreceivers Isaac needs toknow exactly where defend-ers are going to be

Missing the point

All the amazing talkabout what hes done makesIsaac Goodpaster uncomfort-able

The way he sees it view-ing him as extraordinary

from license plates and spellwords Finds words on bill-boards

Problem was middlechild Isaac often claimed notto see the signs that wereright in front of his eyes

By the time he startedschool an eye test suggestedthat he needed glasses

He got and soon lost apair

VVhen the family wentback to the same eye clinic adifferent doctor told themthere was absolutely noth-ing wrong with that boyssight Christine said

The doctor seculatedthatone of Isaac s friends atschool had glasses and thatIsaac wanted to mimic thefriend

Isaac would be 12 andwould have seen at leastseven eye doctors before onefinally figured out that hesuffered from Stargardts

In between Isaacs par-ents would wonder whytheir otherwise intelligentson struggled so with read-ing and writing They wouldfight off several attempts toplace him in special educa-tion classes

They would puzzle overthe severe headaches thatplagued their son

On the last day of Isaacsseventh-grade year a doctorfinally told them what waswrong

Basically he couldnt seeclearly out of the front of hiseyes

Stargardts Disease whichafflicts anywhere between 1in every 1600 to 1 in every15000 children between theages of 7 and 12 cannot bereversed

The Goodpasters weredevastated - For severalweeks they tried to soothetheir son

Then we shook out ofthat and realized somethings Christine said

Mostly they realized thatbefore they knew that any-thing was wrong with Isaacthey had held him to exactlythe same standards as theirother kids Treated normally Isaachad figured out how to com-pensate for his lack of visionand was leading a remark-abl normal lifeXThat doctor that told usthere was nothing wrongwith Isaac well wrong asthat was that turned out tobe a true blessing Christinesaid

~Who knows how wetreat him if we know

Isaac Goodpaster studies in his dorm room atWofford College

totally misses the point of hisstory

Instead the lesson is thathe has refused at every stepto accept limits that wouldmake his life less than ordi-nary The world may considerme legally blind he saidbut I dont I have things I

want to do with my life and Ifind ways to do them

Fair enough But whatev-er he says playing collegefootball as a receiver whilelegally blind is totally thor-oughly and truly amazing

As is Isaac Goodpaster
