CARLY OWENSArt history instructor Denise Johnson admires her new haircut done by John Deberard, hairstylist from Desert Rose Salon Spa on May 2 for the Online to College Club’s cancer fundraiser.JANET TRENIER

Hair or no hair? That is the question. This was the thought for at least fi ve faculty and staff members

during the 2nd annual “Shave it for Can-cer” event the last week of April.

Online To College Club President Jbran Sallah, Jackson Miller, fi lm major, and members of the Pen Empire Club were on hand to volunteer at the donation booth.

The ultimate goal was to raise money to assist programs for childhood cancer.

“We know we want to donate this time specifi cally to children’s cancer,” Sallah said. “Last time we donated to breast can-cer. We are looking into donating to Chil-dren’s Hospital of Orange County.”

Brave members of the Chaffey commu-nity putting their “hair” on the line includ-

ed art instructor Stan Hunter, Foundation director Nick Nazarian, philosophy profes-sor Ryan Falcione, art history instructor Denise Johnson and instructional specialist Greg Creel.

The one receiving the largest amount of monetary donations would end up in the “Shave It for Cancer” barber’s chair.

As students walked by, volunteers asked if they would donate for the cause.

Stopping by to check the fate of his future hair style was Creel, and only one thing was on his mind: Would he get his head shaved on campus for the second year in a row?

After all of the donations were tallied up for each individual donation bucket, a champion was declared. Creel’s head was safe.

The event raised over $250, with half

of that amount coming directly from John-son’s donation bucket. With the largest amount of donations, Johnson received a new hair style, courtesy of John Deberard from Desert Rose Salon-Spa of Upland.

“I’m ready,” Johnson said as she ap-proached the chair. I didn’t care about get-ting my hair cut. I just wanted to raise lots of money.”

Johnson was calm as Deberard began to shave her head.

“They have a professional crew here,” she said. “This is awesome.”

As Deberard shaved the fi rst section of her head Johnson smiled. When her new “do” was complete, Johnson struck a fash-ion pose for her audience.

She hugged Deberard and thanked him for his time and care with her new philan-thropic hair style.

Hair’s to a good cause

DESIREE TOLI

After a year of free transportation for students using Omnitrans, the Go Smart referendum would de-

cide whether to continue the program, or let it go on the ballot during the recent elec-tions.

On April 5 student vote resulted in a landslide 706 to 62 victory in favor of con-tinuing the program.

Now that the student body has spoken, the final vote is set to take place on May 23 at the Governing Board meeting.

The year-long pilot program allowed students at all three campuses to ride any Omnitrans route free with valid Chaffey I.D. Other colleges including San Ber-nardino Valley, Crafton Hills and Cal State San Bernardino also participated in the program.

Recent tuition hikes and rising gas pric-es have left many students to opt for cheap-er, more convenient means of transporta-tion. Not only is the use of the Omnitrans Go Smart program beneficial to the college student budget, but it is also good for the environment. Omnitrans prides itself in us-ing natural-gas.

The program was set to end on June 30 if students had voted no.

Results of the elections from all three campuses, however, proved students sup-ported the Omnitrans Go Smart program.

Voting yes on the referendum meant

students with 6 or more units agreed to a $7.50 transportation fee to be added in the fall semester and a $7 fee for those with less than 6 units.

During the summer session this year, riders will be able to ride free if previously

enrolled in the spring. Chaffey, along with Crafton Hills College, have voted to keep the Go Smart program. San Bernardino Valley College has yet to vote.

“Unless they decide to defer it, it should be voted on at the May meeting,” Dr. Sher-rie Guerrero, vice president of instruction and student services, said.

The Governing Board monthly meet-ings are open to the public. The agenda and all published materials for all board meet-ings are available online a week prior to the meeting.

The public comment section begins around 4 p.m. and is open to students and the general public.

“I think our board is very sensitive to doing what is best for the students and what is best for the college,” Guerrero said. “They were really curious to see what the students were going to do.”

Windy Williams, Omnitrans director of marketing, has informed the board of rider numbers and has given brief facts for the board to consider.

“They are as informed as they could be,” Guerrero said. “And the fact that it passed so significantly should weigh sig-nificantly.”

After being shut down for 10 years, a new greenhouse is set to open in the fall near Zimmerman Hall.

Merrill Deming, interim dean of math-ematics and science, said that while the greenhouse is desperately needed for hands-on training in plant diversity, find-ing the funding for a new structure was an issue.

Three sources of funding were found, including the Associated Students, a fed-

eral government grant and the college gen-eral budget.

Biology instructor Rose Ann Cobos said that the old greenhouse was shutdown because the fiberglass panels had oxidized, which adversely affected the lighting and temperature in the greenhouse.

The contractor is making the final ad-justments and it is hoped that the new greenhouse will be open in time for fall classes. It will hold tropical plants, orchids, and ferns that require moist conditions and other flora that require warm temperatures.

Community college has become un-forgiving to unsure students.

With each passing year, the idea of using Chaffey as a career guide will change due to many factors forcing stu-dents to be more precise and sure of their time on campus. Yet, students should not be discouraged. Chaffey College Counsel-ing would like to assist students in assess-ing the right career path for them.

On April 28, the Chino Campus held a small career assessment event that guided several students in shaping their future.

Lucy Serrano, professor and counselor on Chino Campus, was the coordinator of the event with the assistance of Global Ca-reer Counselor Wendy Whitney from the Rancho Cucamonga campus.

Serrano started the event with a short in-troduction, before engaging in a conversa-tion with the students about the difference between jobs and careers.

“[A career] is a job you want to do with-out pay,” Serrano said.

To further develop that idea, Serrano re-produced, for students, a couple handouts that narrow personality traits in relation to work.

“You need to ask yourself, ‘Who you are in life?’ and ‘Does that life fit the en-vironment of your career?’” Serrano said.

Following the conversation, the ma-jority of the event dealt with the students engaging in three separate personality

questionnaires entitled Myers-Briggs Type Indicator, True Colors, and the Holland Code.

Afterwards, each student was wel-comed to individually discuss their results privately with the counselor.

Nursing student Janette Romero, was one of the several students who signed up for the event. Romero was sure that she wanted to be a nurse, she simply needed some direction.

“My mind is set on a goal, and I don’t want to be indecisive,” Romero said. “Nursing could be the one I want to pur-sue, but maybe my personality will sur-prise me.”

Whitney and Serrano would like to ad-vise all those interested that events like these are offered repeatedly, yet students do not have to wait for each event to have an assessment.

Counseling centers are open and avail-able for assistance on all campuses, they simply ask that students follow the rules and guidelines for meetings.

Students face many obstacles today. With classes being removed entirely, stu-dent attendance increasing, and restrictions placed on registration, patience is neces-sary.

Yet their continuing presence indicates some form of motivation, and Serrano would like to provide the direction in turn-ing said motivation into a fulfilling career.

“Follow your heart,” Serrano said, “and the money will come.”

Anthropology major Kirsten Tuosto was originally studying psychol-ogy, the study of human behavior.

After taking two semesters she realized there was a problem.

“I realized I don’t like people too much,” Tuosto said. “So I took a physical anthropology class and fell in love with it and realized I prefer my people dead than alive.”

There are different types of anthropol-ogy, such as physical anthropology, cul-tural anthropology, linguistics and archeol-ogy. Tuosto prefers physical anthropology, which involves the evolutionary changes in human bodily structure and the classifi -cation of modern races, using mensuration and descriptive techniques.

“I enjoy studying bones and fi nd them fascinating because bones can tell a lot about a person like their sex, age and how they died,” she said.

Once Tuosto found her passion, she dove into her major and with the help of the Chaffey Honors Program, she was able to present her research about digit ratios at UC Irvine’s research honors convention.

Since she attended, she and nine other students were given the chance to be pub-lished in an Irvine science publication. Now she is more comfortable with giving presentations in front large crowds and led two small research teams prior to the pre-sentation.

With the tools she learned in research-ing, Chaffey has given her the opportunity to attend a fi eld school this semester in Ka-zakhstan with Washington University of St. Louis. Participating in this dig makes her eligible to earn college credit at each school. These credits are also transferable to other universities.

“Besides the digging, and research op-portunities, I’m looking forward to net-working with other students and profes-sional archeologists,” Tuosto said.

She will be camping along with other undergraduate anthropology students and anthropologists in Kazakhstan, using only the basic necessities for an entire month. In preparation of this trip she has had to have mandatory vaccinations such as polio and rabies.

She will be taking six online classes about their culture in addition to her regu-lar sit-in classes. Out of all the other stu-dents that were able to take advantage of this scholarship opportunity, Tuosto is the only one attending that is from a commu-nity college.

“I was sad that others could not attend,” Tuosto said. “But I am extremely happy that I’m able to attend.”

With this major she plans to publish papers, write books, and is considering becoming a professor. She wants to in-spire other students to pursue a career in anthropology by educating them not just about the subject but about job opportuni-ties available in the fi eld.

JOE WORRELLKirsten Tuosto, physical anthropology ma-jor and employee of the Panther Express at Rancho campus, has found her place in the anthropology department. This June she is going to be partaking in an archeological dig in Kazakhstan.

In the Muslim culture women wear the hijab or veil as a form of modesty and respects towards themselves and the

opposite sex.Fatima Hasan, ASCC Senator and mem-

ber of the Muslim Student Association, explains that people do not understand the reason behind the hijab and therefore have a common misconception of its purpose.

“I might tell you something but unless you walk in my shoes it’s not your experi-ence,” Hasan said.

The MSA club presented the student body with the Hijab Day Challenge.

The female participants were asked to follow a set of guidelines, wear the hijab for a day and the men were told that they would have to treat them differently.

No hugging, or as it states in rule num-

ber 4, “participants should lower their gaze in presence of the opposite gender.”

If the student agreed then they would sign a contract, consenting to the terms and follow the rules for the entire day. They were urged to write about their experience and their stories were evaluated for prizes. Two winners were picked, Adriana Quinta-nilla and Antoinette Duke.

“I felt limited because my casual Amer-ican style of manner was removed, includ-ing my sarcastic style of speech and I was unable to look into my many male col-leagues’ eyes as an equal,” Duke stated in

her winning essay.In the other winning essay Quintanilla

described the same themes. “We might all have different beliefs and

features, “ she said “but in the end we are all human beings who all should be treated the same.”

About 120 students participated in the challenge.

Freddie Sanchez, philosophy major, said, “It was a very eye opening experi-ence. It takes you out of your comfort zone, but it was a great activity to have on campus.”

SARAH SANDOVAL

Today, women are often judged sole-ly by their appearance. Too often, people will look at what women are

wearing, if their hair and or nails are done, rather than have a conversation in order to get a feel of the kind of person they are.

Fatima Hasan, dietetics major, wears her hijab daily, covering all of her hair.

“I feel empowered by wearing it,” Hasan said. “So many women come to class with their hair done, I come with my hijab, and it doesn’t make me feel any less by doing so.”

Many assumptions are made about the hijab today, the most common one is that students wear it because they are forced to do so but that is untrue.

“Nobody has told me to wear it. It is my choice to wear it and I feel liberated,” Hasan said.

Hasan had heard of other universities that had a hijab challenge and felt it was important for other women to feel what it was like to be in her shoes for a day.

She had noticed many women around campus have their hair and nails done, wear lots of makeup and revealing cloth-ing.

With this observation, it encouraged her to have a hijab challenge at on campus.

Hasan felt it was important for women to get the chance to feel how she feels ev-eryday.

When wearing the scarf, one’s hair is hidden. Many associate hair with beauty, thus one is hiding her beauty out of mod-esty and respect for herself.

A woman wearing the scarf may look at someone of the opposite sex in the eye if she is having a conversation that doesn’t involve fl irtation or lustfulness in order to reduce temptation.

For Hasan, the hijab is her privacy, her modesty, her culture and her liberation.

CARLY OWENS

He works three jobs to make ends meet and support his family. These stories are common among stu-

dents but this isn’t the story of a student. It’s the story of one of Chaffey’s adjunct professors.

“My life as being an adjunct means for me that I do what I do and put in all my time and energy, and then change gears, pack it up, and shift modes,” Quinton Be-miller, art professor, said.

In addition to teaching contemporary art on campus, Bemiller works at Cal Poly Pomona as the curator of the Kellogg Gal-lery, and has a studio in Chinatown in Los Angeles, where he teaches two painting class a week.

“I’ve always been the kind of person that likes to be busy,” Bemiller said.

Tuesdays he starts his day at the gal-lery at Cal Poly, and then comes over to Chaffey to teach two classes, usually leav-ing campus at about 10 p.m. The rest of

the week — including Saturdays — are equally busy with teaching, curating and driving trips between L.A., Pomona and Rancho Cucamonga.

Sundays and Mondays are his two “family days.”

He doesn’t do all these things complete-ly out of financial need, but that does play a role.

“There’s no way I could do all the things I do if I didn’t really like doing them,” he said. “I would just get way too burnt out, and it would be total drudgery.”

Adjuncts are often referred to as “free-way fliers” because they fly along the free-ways from one job to another. Bemiller is no different.

“I could write a book on all the things I’ve seen on the freeways, though luckily none of them involved me,” he said. “I’ve become one with driving. This sounds cra-zy, but driving on the freeway is actually one of the more relaxing times of the day for me. It gives me time to think and not be bothered by anything.”

Driving out to numerous locations is just part of life for an adjunct.

There have been a couple semesters where he would go straight from teaching a kids class at the Armory Center for the Arts in Pasadena to his night class at Chaffey.

His daughter Lily was in the class, so he would drive from the Armory with Lily in the car so that he could use the carpool lane, otherwise he wouldn’t make it to class in time.

His wife would follow him with their other daughter in the car in the carpool lane as well, and when they got to the Chaffey parking lot, Lily would change cars and his wife and two daughters would drive home.

“We did that just so I could use the car-pool lane,” he said. “We had this funky little system, just so I could be on time to my job.”

If he were offered a full-time teaching position, Bemiller said, “I would probably take it in a second. I love teaching, it’s just naturally something that I gravitate to-ward.”

He enjoys teaching, both in formal and informal classrooms. While at his studio in Los Angeles, students enjoy wine and cheese during class.

“His enthusiasm is overwhelming, He has such a great respect for all artists, and he’s extremely knowledgeable, and I don’t think you can find a better teacher. I really don’t.” Jacqueline Tchakalian said, a stu-dent at his studio.

He says that it’s hard to tell what aspect of his career will be most fruitful, whether it be teaching, his personal business, or be-ing curator of a gallery.

Bemiller feels that some of the best parts of being an adjunct can also be con-sidered the worst.

While he would want the stability of a full time teaching job, and the ability to fo-cus more on teaching, because of being an adjunct, he is able to enjoy a lot of different experiences.

“It can be stressful sometimes, but most of the time it’s exciting,” Bemiler said. “And keeps things interesting.”

Chaffey’s dance production, Pulse, with four performances last month, started off with a greenish back-

ground, where only the silhouettes of the dancers were able to be seen.

Once the music hit, everyone on stage was dancing along to Rich Man’s Frug from the musical Sweet Charity.

You could see the excitement and fun everyone was having. By their footwork, it was obvious the cast had rehearsed for hours everyday.

“It was really fun to be up on stage, with your fellow dancers and show off what

you’ve been working so hard on,” Erynn Affeldt, English major, said.

The entire show was fun and entertain-ing for all. The audience enjoyed all the different dances that the show’s director, Michelle Jenkins, incorporated.

However, there were two dances that were most memorable. One was “Swan Lake - The Other Story.”

Many were expecting to see four to five women in tutus and synchronized dancing. Instead, they saw five men, or “swans” in tutus dancing with attitude.

The performance had people laughing themselves out of their seats.

As the story started, the swans began

dancing and the prince started to fight for Odette, a giant Baron von Rothbart who was played by a woman, another twist.

As the swans grasped each other’s hands and danced the same moves with such fluidity, the audience was truly im-pressed. At the end of the scene the black swan shot the prince and took a bow.

The second memorable dance, “Dia-logues,” didn’t have a catchy chorus or a vivacious beat. A few different dancers went on stage one at a time and danced to their own voices.

The audience was able to hear each dancer’s story as they danced with emotion in their faces and movements. They didn’t

just tell their stories with their mouths, but also with their bodies. Each story started off with a struggle and ended with triumph.

“During rehearsals there were lots of negative attitudes and pressure, but once the show started everyone came together, Ivanne Recio, dance major, said. “If any-one messed up we kept dancing.”

Miscues were few and failed to stop the flow of the show. There was also a jungle-themed dance that was extremely enter-taining to watch with realistic props and a colorful background.

The audience was left laughing and im-pressed by the performer’s graceful fluid-ity.

‘Pulse’ dance concert receives rave reviews

JOE WORRELLThe concert opened with the Rich Man’s Frug, choreographed by Michele Jenkins in the style of Bob Fosse. An ensemble piece from the musical “Sweet Charity,” it was danced in three parts: “The Aloof,” “The Heavyweight,” and “The Big Finish.”

The Hospitality/Culinary Club held a fundraiser on April 25 to promote its programs and existence at the

Chino campus. Club members sold nachos with salsa, fruit cups, Rice Krispy treats, and soda.

All items were hand made by the club members who called the event “Nacho Ordinary Day.” Proceeds were to be used toward club workshops, catering, and fu-ture functions.

“A lot of students don’t even realize we have a hospitality program,” Mika Alar-

con, president of the Hospitality/Culinary club, said.

“We have about 70 members, but only about 20 are active,” vice president Tammy Odell said.

The Hospitality/Culinary program of-fers three concentrations: food services, hotel management, and culinary arts.

“Students have the opportunity to gain hands on experience, cooking in every class, in our new and beautiful kitchen, set up functions and prepare for events,” Odell said.

New members of the club can expect to build relationships and work together in

the field of their interest.“[It] will eventually help students in

the field of their industry work in teams, learn how to put on events, and aim toward restaurants and services,” Daniel Bentum, instructor of hotel and food service man-agement, said.

Many students from the club are already working in hotel businesses or restaurants. Sheila Burroughs, student overseer of the club, shared her experience with being in-volved. Burroughs opened her own night club and catering business, while her son opened his own restaurant.

“We’d really like to see this program grow as a whole, not just for our club, but for future students,” Alarcon said. “The more the program grows, the more that we can offer. We can say this is just as good as going to another school and spending $6,000 or so on an associates degree.”

“The club is totally awesome. It’s great for students, networking and it’s a really positive thing,” club member Chris Lin-deroth said.

The club meets on Mondays from 3 p.m. to 4 p.m. in the kitchen at the Chino cam-pus. Contact the Hotel/Food Management office at (909) 652-8202 for more details.

‘Nacho Ordinary Day’ in Chino

ERIC BALTAZAR

The 2012 California Community College Fashion Symposium was held on April 21 at the California

Market Place in downtown Los Angeles.The event, which showcased many ven-

dors, activities, prizes, and a fashion show displaying students’ work, was designed to promote and recognize the achievements of students enrolled in fashion design and merchandising programs.

The symposium began with a panel discussion of leading fashion industry speakers discussing problems facing to-day’s apparel brands, retailers and emerg-ing technologies such as body scanning and virtual garment “try-ons” that promise to revolutionize how consumers buy and make fashion products in the future.

Next were the exhibit booths, where companies, designers, and colleges were able to interact and answer student ques-tions on a one on one bases.

“Good information was available along with great representative service,” Krys-tine Thomas, fashion design major, said.

Major universities were on hand to dis-cuss their fashion programs. Leading ven-dors such as PGM and International Design Supplies Inc. (IDS) attended the event.

“PGM stood out the most, because of all the energy coming from the booth, Email sign ups, design material give a ways, and the information made the booth worth while,” Thomas said.

Finally, the fashion show exhibited stu-dent work and gave them the opportunity to compete in three categories, Redesigned/Re-purposed, Contemporary Sportswear and Evening Wear. Evavelina Zapata, fash-ion design major, took first place in the contemporary sportswear competition.

A good education is not cheap, and it is about to get a little harder to afford.

Of course there are ways to help pay for the cost of education such as scholarships, grants and student loans.

But loans just put off the impending cost to the students and that cost might just be doubled this year with the proposed in-crease to student loan interest rates.

“If Congress doesn’t act on July 1, inter-est rates on Stafford loans, on student loans from the federal government will double,” President Barack Obama said, via a tele-phone conference call from Air Force One on April 24. “Nearly 7.5 million students will end up owing more on their loan pay-ments.”

Which means on average student loans will be increased by another $1000.

There can not be a single student that would want to pay an additional thousand dollars if there is a way to avoid it.

If any are upset about reading or hearing about this interest rate increase on loans and have loans, there is an outlet that can be used.

“And part of the reason I wanted to be

on this call is to let you know, very person-ally, I need your help on this” Obama said. “I need you all to tell your readers and your listeners why they’ve got to speak up, why they’ve got to speak out. Let Congress know that they need to do the right thing. And for those of you on Twitter, use the hashtag #dontdoublemyrate.”

Higher education should be available to as many people as possible and by dou-bling the interest rates on loans, many stu-dents will not be able to afford the costs incurred by completing their degrees or certification programs.

A pioneer journalist who was the first woman to cover local news for the Los Angeles Times, reporter Doro-

thy Townsend, died of cancer in her Sher-man Oaks home on March 5 at the age of 88.

She began her career with the Times in 1954, writing feature articles for the wom-en’s section of the paper, in a time when women were thought to be too delicate and sensitive to handle the tough topics and strenuous schedules that come with work-ing on other sections of newspapers.

However, Townsend quickly became fed up with her position and insisted that she be allowed to cover local news. Her editors finally gave in to her demands and sent her to the city newsroom to sink or swim in a sea of testosterone.

At the time, she was the first and only female reporter for the local news section of the paper.

“Dorothy was what we would have called back then very ladylike,” Steve Harvey, a former Times columnist, told the Times in an email. “She wore dresses. She didn’t smoke or curse. . . . But she was tough.”

Despite her feminine appearance and manners, Townsend quickly proved that she could keep up with her male cowork-ers. Her coverage of the Aug. 1965 Watts riots and the aftermath helped the Times win a Pulitzer Prize.

Townsend influenced countless female reporters to cover hard news. Women in journalism all over the world lost a ground-breaking inspiration.

A parade on campus raised aware-ness on campus of the Child Devel-opment Center and celebrated the

national “Week of the Young Child.”Preschool children from the center

marched around the Rancho Cucamonga campus on April 25.

The parade was monitored by the staff of the Child Development Center, parents and volunteers.

As the children marched around campus they waved signs and pictures that they had made while chanting, “Kids are number one!” “Kids Rock!” and “No budget cuts!”

“It was so adorable to see the children marching around, waving signs and chant-ing,” Amber Sabala, English major, said.

“The Week of the Young Child” is cele-brated to raise awareness of the importance of early childhood programs and educa-tion. Events such as baking cookies, mak-ing banners, and creating special art proj-ects were held in honor of the celebration.

The Child Development Center, is ac-credited by the National Association for the Education of Young Children.

The children from the preschool classes will be graduating on Friday, May 11. A ceremony will be held at the Child Devel-opment Center from 5 p.m. to 7 p.m.

SkillsUSA State Competition April 13-15.Students Donavan Caver, Preston

Pierre, Fabian Ramirez, Mike Strack, Manny Tenorio, Giovany Garcia Uribe and professors Sherman Taylor, John Hudson, Craig Luke and Chris Eckeard all partici-pated in the SkillsUSA competition.

Some helped with the preparation and others competed. All six students compet-ed on the regional level but only Caver and Strack moved on to the state competition.

“You have to be the best of the best,” Taylor said.

SkillsUSA is a competition that is de-voted to encouraging excellence among student-run clubs across the country.

Clubs that participate in the competi-tion are challenged through a series of skill exercises as well as mock interviews with companies and future employers to assess their business etiquette.

Competing on a state level is more in-tensive and despite their best efforts only Strack gained a silver medal but did not advance onto the national level. However, Taylor is proud of all the students who competed.

“For our school to participate in for the first time ever and earn gold and silver medals at a regional level and move to the state level is in my opinion pretty good,” he said.

Being a part of a SkillsUSA competition not only broadens the horizon of the stu-dents who compete but also benefits their schools as well.

According to Taylor, companies and fu-ture employers like seeing involvement in the competition and as a result will be more generous to those schools whose students who participate.

The auto tech department has recently received 24 brand new motors donated for the small engines class due to this involve-ment.

“Next year I think we are going to be national,” Taylor said.

For some the passion started at a young age. They had always known what they wanted to do. For others it

was a discovered passion. No matter how this passion started the

results were the same: they are the select group of student artists featured in the Stu-dent Invitational 2012.

The 35th Annual Student Invitational exhibition showing from April 15 to May 17, held an Artists Panel Discussion on April 24.

This discussion, which was open to the public, allowed students, faculty and ad-mirers alike to discuss with the artists any questions or comments they may have had concerning the artists and/or their work.

The discussion was guided by Norma Romero, Kimberly Augustine, and Laryssa Soto, honors students from Women and Contemporary Art History class, and were selected by Denise Johnson, professor of art history.

“This was the first time I had submitted anything for the SI Exhibit,” said Olivia Manchego, one of the featured student art-ists. “I was considering it last year, but felt I was not ready.”

Manchego’s passion was discovered through her journey at Chaffey.

“When I first enrolled at Chaffey I had every intention of being a cinematogra-pher,” Manchego said. Feeling she should study the history of cinematography as well led her to the photography courses and her passion.

“My first class was Photo-10, a begin-ning black and white film course, with Kathy Haddad. I felt I could flourish bet-ter in an individual working environment and never left. It’s been three years now,” Manchego said.

For Christopher Allen Fontilla the pas-sion had always been there. He started studying photography in his senior year of high school, with ceramics and wood shop keeping him occupied until he could get into the photo class, and has steadily pur-sued his passion ever since.

“I was fascinated by the idea of making art by way of a scientific process,” Fontilla said.

Sara Koh joked that it was a “horrible challenge but a rewarding experience.”

Each student learned something new and they all enjoyed the experience for what it taught them.

“It was a lot of fun working with every-body in the show,” Fontilla said. “It was truly a great experience. The thing that I am taking away from this experience is: keep working.”

PRISCILLA PORRAS

Damani “D.J.” Brown isn’t just a business administration major at but a statewide javelin thrower.

This past February, Brown threw past the 200 feet mark and hit at 205 feet.

He joins a handful of Panther track stars in history to do so, including his own coach John Holladay.

“I couldn’t remember how it happened, I was in complete shock. This was a big burden off my shoulders because I’ve been trying for two years,” says Brown, smiling.

Track has not always been easy for Brown; he started his career at Summit High School in track but was quickly side-lined with an injury.

After a few months of being out on the sidelines, his family encouraged him try javelin.

Brown did not have any professional training in javelin throwing.

He observed other track stars and took it to himself to learn and perfect his throw-ing.

“After each throw, I kept getting better and better,” Brown said, “At my fi rst com-petition, I got third place and each time I worked harder to get a better placing.”

Even with fi rst place standings Brown still looks for guidance from his mom and Holladay, the man Brown considers his fi rst actual coach.

What keeps him going while he is out on the fi eld is to always try his best and always giving his best effort.

With offers to go to USC, Cal State Northridge, Kansas State, Cal State Fuller-ton, and UC San Diego, Brown proves that practice, perseverance, and dedication will take you anywhere.

The Track and Field team will end there season with the SoCal fi nals on May 12 at Cerritos.

Swim/Dive team fi nish at championshipSEVANNY CAMPOS

With the spring semester coming to a close, the swim/dive team concluded a very challenging

season, being virtually homeless through-out the season.

A heater problem at the Chaffey pool meant that the team competed and prac-ticed away most of the season. But they overcame the obstacle and fi nished with one of the most successful seasons to date.

The aquatic Panthers concluded their season on April 30 at the state champion-ship at East Los Angeles College. Both the men and women competed in the events.

By the end of the tournament the men fi nished at 19th place. This has been a amazing season for the men’s swim and dive team.

The swim team tied with Long Beach City College for fi rst place at the SoCal championship.

This was the fi rst in the history of the event there was a tie. At the event Kyle McCurly was named men’s swimmer of the year and Jaron Swinburn was named diver of the year.

This season is a big improvement for the men as they failed to impress last season.

As for the women, they had their share of success this season, going undefeated

for most of the season. The ladies placed 16 at the state cham-

pionship with Kathryn Realyvasquez, named diver of the year.

Mike Dicks was recognized for his hard work by being named Dive Coach of the Year, and Coach Jim Dopf was given swim Coach of the Year.
