College students targeted for admissions, scholarship scam:1

As high ~chool stuJents lea\'C: the home and enter into the real worlJ, thev are ·ubject to cowH­less .cams anJ illegitimate finan­cial propositions that take ,1drnn­tage of their inexperience. During their departure from the confines of childhood. one of the first pluces students lose their parent · or their own hard-earned money is in the anempt to secure their futures with a college education.

The;e organizations offer prospec­tive college studencs assist:uice in \'arious tasks. including 1terting <lC­

cepted into college. and acquiring scholarships <Uld financial aid.

According to the Deparm1ent of Education, there is a plethora of free services available to pro­specti,·e and current college stu­dents concerning financial aid and cholarships. \X'ith so many free

Last week, the Exponent Jorted on Iraqi Vice Presi­nt Taha Yassin's suggestion at George W. Bush and ddam Hussein should duel, :reby avoiding war. I've got imilar proposal. A one time only, $4 9. 95

y-per-view event, where ev­; Montanan can witness a 1e-on-one academic decath­)n between our less-than­dlar governor and our oud-but-incompetent presi­nt. I'm thinking a stimulat­g game show type event with 1estion ranging somewhere :t\\'een the quizzes in the :ck of Highlights, the maga-1e, and questions offered on e Saturday ight Live \'er­)n of Celebrity Jeopardy.

\X'hat the hell, let's throw an Quayle into rhe mix as di. If that's the case then e've definite!} got to have a •elling portion of the compe­ion. 'Tm sorry, former Vice resident Quayle." Alex ·ebek, acting as mediator, ight say. "but there's no si­ne 'q' in apple."

vs. One attempt to get to the

bottom of a probing question: Who's smarter? Or should we

say 'Who's dumber?'

ings is the capital of the stare that she governs but is up­staged when President Bush suggests that Montana actu­ally isn't even "one of the 51 states in our great, st rong country."

This might help get to the bottom of a question that 's haunted every Montanan for the past couple of years; Who's dumber? OK, to say every Montanan feels rhis way is a bit of an overstatement. I think there are a couple of people in Libby who actually think Judy Manz is a smart and able governor. There 's even one guy who lives just outside of Jordan rhar thinks George Bush.Jr. is a bright guy who, in fact, does not look like a chimpanzee.

Nevertheless, rhis pay-per­view event would get to the bottom of that taxing prob­lem. Let's do a little pre-event comparison:

I know George W. wants to do everything his dad did , but this is getting ridiculous. Invade Iraq? Umm ... why? Apparently Bush hasn't learned from Hider's mistake of creating war on two differ­ent fronts. Especially when the first, Afghanistan, isn't what many' would consider a success in the first place. He's the neighborhood kid you

"Bush - because I believe the bumper sticker 'my gover­nor is dumber than your governor' ."

wouldn't trust with a squirt gun and now he's all grown up (in size, at least) and sur­rounded by cabinet members who want nothing more than to flex the muscle of the U.S. armed forces.

Bush may be dumb, but it's still up in the air as to whether or nor he's evil. With Judy Martz there's no question. She's officially sold her soul to the devil. A couple of weeks ago Martz called Exxon employees the "true environ­mentalists." Appar­ently rhe Exxon Valdez had powerful cleansing effects on the Alaskan wildlife rhar some of us simply weren't aware of.

Comparing that with George W. Bush's environ­men ral policies is like choos­ing between gonorrhea and syphilis.

Bush has ripped up the Kyoto treaty that would cut down on harmful emissions worldwide. an accord that nearly 200 countries have signed. He's also rhe one that

opened up Alaska for an all­you-can-drill oil and gas buf­fet. And now the b u ffoon wants to destroy our n ational forests in order to cut down on po t ent ial fi re hazards. This, to me, seems like sever­ing an arm in order to d ivert

the parn of a papercur.

W h IC h brings me to another ques­

tion; economi­cally \\·ho is worse? The governor that

took a poor economy that was clinging to the porcelain for dear life and flushed it com­pletely down the rnilet? Or the president that rook a healthy and

lively economy and drove it straight to hell. (Save me the ''It wasn 'r his fault routine'' because, and I hate to make an obvious anti-republican re­mark here, bur CUTTI JG TAXES IS NOT ALWAYS THE A SWER!)

The comparisons could go on and on. Bush likes to ex­ecute the mentally retarded. Some might suggest that Judy herself qualifies, et cetera. et cetera. What is becoming in-

environmental blolouv "Judy Martz is definitely not capable of leading a group of girf scouts let alone the country, in my opinion. Mr. Bush ordered an American soldier to be killed to make it easier for him to get public favor to go to war, another opinion. To sum it all up - Politicians suck!"

creasingly clear is that this question cannot be answered by public debate alone. Ac­tion is needed, and that ac­tion is in the form of a one­on-one quiz off.

However, there's a chance the in tellectual competition won't take, wh ich I'm guess­ing it doesn't. Let's face it, the showdown is likely to end in either a zero, zero rie or nega­tive scores that are roughly equivalenr to the square mile­age of Canada, depending on the rules . In which case we'll forget the academic competi­tion and go straight to a dearhcage match.

If this happens then we'll have to swap Dan Quayle for Jesse Ventura with the simple rule that even these three con­testanrs will understand - Last man standing wins.

Which reminds me of a t­shirr I saw somebody wearing on campus the other day. The ourline of the state of Minne­sota in rhe background with the words "My governor can beat up your governor."

You've got to admit. the kid's got us rhere because, hell, our governor can't even spell his governor. George \V.J. Bush, .Jud> Martz, Rosie O'Donnell. Old avy com­mercials ... I think it's time to move ro Canada.

tudents rally to finish climbing wall

~U senior Craig Petersen climbs up alollg the crack, a portion of the new climbing wall in itomney Gym. Petersen and fellow climbers put forth approximately 300 volunteer hours to inis'1 the project last Thursday night. The construction began 10 months ago.

Chalky hands stretched for a hold. muscles flexed and limbs strained as MSU student climbers tried their at!Uetic strength on the newly built climbing wall in Romney Gym last Thursday night.

The new climbing wall replaced the out-of-dare wall, which was com­posed of wooden lag holds tl1at were bolted into concrete walls. The holds commonly broke when used, and many students using the facility made complaints. MSU student climber Craig Petersen worked at: me clin1b­ing wall, checking student IDs and monitoring students using the facil­ity. After much discussion \\rith fel­low students, Petersen, a senior in Business, decided ro present a pro­posal for a new climbing wall to

slightly overhanging.'' The budget soon went dry after

M U Facility Services intervened Petersen's plans by finishing the framework of the new wall them­selves. Petersen and other willing climbers then had ro compromise by vollll1teering their rime in order to fin­ish the half built wall.

"I told people that I would make this (new climbing wall) happen," said Petersen. "I rallied my best climbing parmer and my girlfriend. This wall \Vouldn 't have been possible \\rithour them."

By the rime of its completion last week, the wall had taken Petersen ap­proximately 300 vollU1teer hours. He and fellow climbers \\'Orked nights and into the early morning hours ro G.nish the wall.Juggling 15 credits, a 3.9 GPA and work, Petersen learned to manage time \\'ell and was motivated by his desire to es­tablish a facility that welcomed avid climbers of all levels.

"Bozeman is a mecca for climb-ing," said Petersen.

Int: ram u rals and Recre­a t: i o n .

"I got a lot of negative feed­back from die­hard clin1bers about the fa­cilities and funding for clin1bers and non-tradi­tional sporrs in general." said Petersen.

'We were building off concrete walls so

"Climbing draws people here and helps to increase revenue for the uni­\·ersity and the local community. How­ever. we (climbers) had no good place to train in winter.''

we were forced to be creative but we made it happen~'

- Craig Petersen MSU climber

To celebrate the completion of the project, A ft er

much stub-born persistence on his part to receive funds from lnt:ramw-als and Recre­ation to build a new wall, Petersen was granted $3 ,000 ro take on the task. A summertime construction worker siding and building houses, Petersen used his skills to begin build­ing the fran1ework for the new wall 10 months ago. Acquiring his ideas and plans from talking with fellow climbers, Petersen set to work, build­ing a wall that would challenge climber's abilities.

"I talked to climbers and got feedback on what people wanted," said Petersen. "They (climbers) wanted something steep, difficult and

Petersen and fellow climbers opened the new wall last Thursda1 night and welcomed stu­dents to come in and try out the new wall Over 200 people came to climb and show support.

Jenni Lowe, wife of the late fa­mous mountaineer Alex Lowe, and her recent husband Conrad Anker. world-class alpinist and mountaineer, made a sw-p1ise appearance at the climbing wall with their cl1ildren.

The slow start took a roll in rhe second game as rhe 'Cms dropped game rwo. The power­ful ·cu offen c tallied onl) 16 kills as opposed to NAU's 19.

After the break it was ob\'i­ous that che 'Cats weren 'r going ro mess around.

"Games one and two we were a step behind bur we didn't panic." Gantt said. ·

In games three and four, the 'Cats turned hroyer Gym into a showroom for ralent. Like a well-oiled machine, the 'Car of­fense operated ro a science.

Monrana State's solid of­fense was complimented in che \\ 111 by their tenacious defense. which has been in the spotlight all season long. MSU defense tore apart the offensi\·e arrack of NAU with ease.

''\Y/e rely on them ('Car defense) to score a !or of points" Gantt said.

Marie Strong and DeeDee McLeod are hunting buddies. The mother and daughter duo hunt for deer, elk, turkeys and whatever else looks fun. And even though they might start from the same camp, these women definitely prefer to hunt without their husbands.

"I go fishing with my hus­band, but I go hunting with my mom," McLeod said .

In 21 years of hunting to· gerher, they've shot 30 deer, seven elk, rwo antelope. a bear and a bunch of turkeys. "\'<'e're not typical hunters. but we do know what we're domg." trong said.
