GEIMAN ON THE GREEN: Professor Simone Guenzel had to teach her German class outside because of the gas leak
A natural gas leak prompted a
brief evacuation of more than
150 people from the Adams
Humanities building yesterday.
Shortly before 11 a.m., a construction worker hit and broke a
gas line located on the northwest corner of the building, said,
university spokesman Jack
Beresford. The line was exposed
because utilities are being relocated fot the incoming trolley
station.
No one was injured.
Staff working in the building
smelled the gas and called University Police. They then ushered people out of the building.
The line was secured by 11:21
a.m. and people were ,allowed
back in the building by' 11 :40
a.m.
"Now we just have to worry
about opening the windows and
airing it out," said Jim Edwards,

Construction brings a year of lRinor detours
The construction of Fraternity Row,
already underway on the comer of Hardy
Avenue and 55th Street, will cause a few
slight detours until it is completed.
Ac~ording to San Diego State University Foundation, construction will be ongoing Monday through Friday from 7 a.m. to
5 p.ro.. through July 2002 when fraternity
members are slated to occupy the complex. The Foundation will be committed to
reducing the noise and impact to accessibility that occur as construction is underway.
The recent fencing-off of the construction site has resulted in the permanent closure of a right tum lane on Hardy Avenue,
so that Hardy Avenue can be straightened
for the project. Motorists will still be able
to make a right tum from Hardy Avenue
onto 55th Street.
Also, the fencing on 55th Street has been
placed one foot into the bike Ipne, causing
the sidewalk on the east side of the street
to be inaccessible between Hardy Avenue
and Aztec Walk. This will also be in place
until the proj~ct:s completion. In the
meantime, pedestrians are urged to use
the sidewalk on the west side of 55th
Street.
Revered
professor
dies at 70
James Carnevale, who pioneered a
family counseling program on campus,
died of cancer on April 23. H~ was 70.
In 1986, Carnevale and his wife, Marty,
created a program through San Diego
State University's Department of Counselor Education by which students could
intern in elementary and secondary
schools throughout the county.
He joined the SDSU faculty in 1967 and
was honored four times by his students
with an Outstanding Faculty Award
before he retired in 1992.
'
A native of Lackawanna, N.Y.,
Carnevale earned a bachelor's degree at
the University of California, Los Angeles
and taught English at Escondido High
School. In 1961, he began teaching at Palomar College and earned a master's degree
at SDSU. He was appointed as a consultant to the National White House Conference on Children in 1971.
Carnevale is survived by his wife of 23
years, Marty; daughters, Colleen Kelly of
San Diego, Jamie Carnevale and Maura
Norzagaray; a son, Shaun; and stepchildren, Patrick Monaghan and Kathi
Vaughn, both of San Diego.

In addition, water line work planned
for June will result in a one-week closing
of one of the two northbound lanes on
55th Street.
Annual Spring celebration
on the way
This year's Spring Celebration, presented by the San Diego State University Field
Station Programs, will be held Saturday at
the Santa Margarita Ecological Reserve.
The event will showcase research from
multiple research projects ,that were conducted' at SDSU's network of four "living
laboratories," ecological reserves where
researchers can study the natural environment. This year's theme is "Habitat
islands and corridors: The value of environmental research in a fragmenting landscape."
"
The event will go from 10 a.m. to 6 p.m.
and will include tours of the Santa Margarita Ecological Reserve and displays of
bat detectors, amphibian traps, scientific
specimens and more. Refreshments will

Support grOUp to help

Student support group Take 5! will be
hosting a workshop Thursday entitled
"Setting Priorities 101" to help students
set priorities, mana~e time more efficiently and prepare for fmals.
This is a result of an informal study conducted by Take 5! that found that 39% of
San Diego State University students listed
setting priorities as a distraction. Take 5!
conducted the survey to find out what students needed help with in order to graduate on time.
The survey also revealed that students'

Summer volunteers needed
In Yosemite
For those who would enjoy preserving
a national park while on the camping trip
of a lifetime, Yosemite National Park is
offering a summer volunteer program.
The Yosemite Association, a non-profit
educational organization, needs volunteers yearly for a variety of tasks. The
schedule is flexible, which leaves volunteers time to take advantage of outdoor
activities such as hiking, rock climbing,
backpacking and horseback riding.
Volunteers would work a four or fiveday week from either May until September or July until September.

prOVided stories of people

"Women and Health Issues"
was Wednesday's theme, featuring speakers and a film.
Thursday's event focused on
U.S./Mexico Border relations.
The conference culminated
Friday with a candlelight vigil
to represent victims of human
rights abuses.
Organizers said at least 50
people attended each event.
Liberal studies senior and
Students Against Sweatshops
president Saeed Khan said the
conference is a call-to-arms in
light of recent protests against
free trade.
"Peopl~ are starting to wnke
up a little bit," Khan said.
Thomas Davies, director of
the Center for Latin American
Studies on campus, spoke
about immig'ration and political violence during Friday's
presentation. He said U.s.
involvement in Central America in the 1980s is a gross
example of human rights
abuses.
''In the course of the Cold
War, we supported govern-.
ments that denied human
rights because we felt they
were essential to our national
security," Davies said.
Davies criticized the United
States for supporting military
"death squads" in countries
like Guatemala, El Salvador
and Peru. He said these factions may have murdered
m'any innocent people each
year.
When refugees from these
and other countries began
fleeing to the United States,
Davies said many were unable
to find meaningful work. Lack
of competitive wages kept
many impoverished - parents worked in sweatshops
making minimum wage while
their kids formed gangs.
,An ultimate solution is to
have a good world economy
that would enable people in
Latin American countries to
find work, he said.
Another issue brought up
during the week was humiln
rights ilt the border.
Davies said the border situation is a complex problem
that has no easy solution. He
said current U.s./Mexico border policies have their share of
problems .
"There is far too much violence at the border," he said.
"It's not needed. Those people
are not violent."

fair, though, if these

Walking across America, surfing
around the world, painting in Florence; these are examples of those big,
once in a lifetime adventures that only
a few get to experience. Although society admires people who do these
adventurous things, it can be almost
impossible. Students are pushed into
college at the best possible time fbr an
adventure.
Many students graduate from high
school 'and go straight into a four-yea r
university or junior college. Society
puts a lot of pressure on students to go
to college straight from high school '
and get a job right after college. For
way too many Americaris, their first
opportunity for adventure is retirement.
Not everybody can financially support ~ high-caliber adventure out of
high school, but finances are not an
issue. There are programs where one
can work in a foreign country and be
granted room, board and extra money
for something they are ihterested in.
There are, so many options other
than college. The main reasons tha t
students don't take advantage of these
options are ignorance and pressure to
do otherwise.
Travel creates well-rounded citizens, creating happier people and a .
stronger nation; so why would society
discourage these things? There is a
common misconception that a year off
may become a lifetime. Another myth
is that college is harder' when you are
older.

Reed Albergotti's recent column,
(HColunmist turns 21, then contemplates

a vague resemblance to humor.
.
,However, I took umbrage at Albergotti's final thought, "If a few (SDSU students) disappear in Mexico, nobody
would even notice."
Whoa, there. That's exactly what happened to one of our students last week.

SDSU offense blows up for
. 11 .runs in doubleheader
By AMANDA CAPLES
aJAR ClJlt
Staff Writer
Just lii<e any other spqrts team, the
San Diego State softball team has had
its woes this season. But the offense is
back and kicking. SDSU swept
defending Mountain West Conference champion Utah, 6-2 and 5-0,
respectively.' .
The doubleheader triumph marks
the first time the MWC-Ieading Utes
(10-5-1) have been swept at home by
a conference team. And for the Aztecs
(7-7), it couldn't have come at a better
time for a team struggling to find its
. offensive flow.

, After defeating Utah in the first
game with an explosive four-run
sixth inning, the Aztecs came out with
a renewed sense of confidence.
"Everybody's attitude was different," pitcher Sandra 'Durazo said:
"We knew we were hitting (Kristin)"
Arbogast, who is one of (Utah's)
toughest pitchers. Everybody was
pumped up."
In the second game, Tiffany
Goudy caine up big for the Aztecs, as
she hit a solo shot inthe#rst inning to
get SDSU an early lead. Then, in the
third inning Goudy was walked. A
single by Kellie Nordhagen and a
fielder's choice allowed her to
advance to third.
Displaying her speed, Goudy then
stole home, giving the team a 2-0
advantage.
The Aztecs would add another run
in the top of the fourth irining, as second baseman Sarah Hershman
stroked a lead-off single and was
,advanced to third on a sacrifice bunt
arid a wild pitch. Then on a sacrifice
fly by Shawna Fischer, Hershman
scored, making the score 3-0.

Second baseman CarlQ Cotas ascent to starting ~ole aided by summer excursion
By MICHAEL KUTZING

he city of Bellingham, Wash. has
much ·to offer any summer
.. tourist~ be it boating the pristine
. Puget Sound or ,enjoying the
sounds of The American Sinfonietta at the
Bellingham Music Festival. .
But for San Diego State second baseman
Carlo Cota, it offered something a little out
of the ordinary.
In June of 2000, after his sophomore season, Cota ventured to the I'acific North. west to play for the Bellingha~ Bells of the
Pacific International League. He saw it as
a chance to strengthen his shot at a starting role the next ~ason.
"Going up to Washington this summer
was great for me," Cota said. "I worked
T
real hard in the off-season trying to earn .
the starting position."
.
Some might say Cota had the position in
the bag even before heading north. But he
was not abo.ut to take anything for ,granted.
At the start of his SDSUcareer, Cota was
buried deep on the bench. It is a role that
his double-play partner, shortstop Taber
Lee, understands well.
"It's frustrating at first," sa~d Lee, a
sophomore. "The guys who make it to this
level really have never sat on the bench
before."
Cota found that to be the case.
,
"It was definitely rough, especially 'at
the beginning of my second year," he said.
"What made' it easier to accept was that
(second baseman) Matt Ricardy wa~ having such a great year, so I really co~ldn't
complain.
,"All I could do was keep working
• hard."
And that's what he did. In the weight
room and at practices he continued to
press on.
It would eventually payoff.
Cota was first asked to take over the second base duties late in the 2000 season
after All~Mpuntain West Conference firstt~amer Ricardy was moved to third.
'
And 'when it was time to answer the
bell, Cota was ready.
.
"Sure enough, I got a shot about the last
15 games of the ye~r and it turned out
great," he said. "1 wasn't thinking, 'Oh, I
finally got my chance!' I was thinking,
'Oh, it's great to be playing.'"
,
Cota ended the season with a .308 batting average, including a .375 mark in the
Mountain West Conference Tournament.
It's a safe bet to say he rose to the occasion.

The next season, the Mariners
won 79 games.
In 1999 for some reason
(maybe th~ mortgage was iate)
the Mariners lost their home, the
Kingdome. As with any family,
the loss of a home was devastating.
The team's bread~inner, Ken
Griffey Jr. was visibly upset.

The team knew it had one last
superstar to hold on to, Alex
Rodriguez, and it thought he
was a keeper.. In truth, the
Mariners didn't have a clue.
When A-Rod said he was more
interested in winning than
money, he meant he was interested in some team winning him
over with lots of money.
Obviously, the Mariners
didn't understand until $252
million dollars later.
But there must be something
in the water, er, coffee in Seattle.
If you haven't checked the
standings lately, the Mariners
are 20-5 and off to their best start
ever. That included a nine-game
winning streak and sweeps of
the Yankees and A's.
, So all the variables are in
place for a hit song. The team
lost its home, lost its breadwinner, lost its superstar and lost its
Johnson, but they continue to
win. .
When are the Grammys?

Iished earlier in the year at the Willie
Williams Invitational March 17.
It's a mark, she said, that shows she's
read y for the conference championships at
the Sports Deck later this month.
"It feels good to break the record, but
not great," said Crabtree. "I'm ready for
(the conference championships). That's
important, but what's more important are
the Nationals .. It's all about how you do
that day. You could go in number one but
if you don't perform that day, you're out."
In addition to the Mose and Crabtree
performances, Daveetta Shepherd won
the IOO-meter hurdles (13.54 seconds) and
qualified for the Nationals, while Aja
Frary continued an excelleflt season with a
pair of second-place finishes in the 400·
meter hurdles (60.58) and long jump (19
feet, 6.25 inches).
With both the track and field cOlnpo·
nents coming together and gaining
momentum for the conference champi·
onships coming May 16-19, it would seem
that the team and the coach would ·have
plenty to crow about. .
However; Sheffield preferred not to talk
about himself and discussed what he
thought was more relevant: his team.
"The team did it; it's their hard work as
well as mine," Sheffield said. "If it wasn't
for them, I wouldn't have been Coach of
the Year. And it couldn't have happened
without Dave Ohton and the weight staff;
they're in at 7:00, 7:30 training our athletes.
"Whpn you receive an award like that,
it's a joint effort."
And as the awards pile higher,
Sheffield's kJngdom keeps gett~ng
stronger.

"He earned that job (this year)
with his performance last ye"r,"
said SDSU head coach Jim Dietz.
But Cota wasn't about to rest
on his laurels. That's why the
Calexico native, along with
pitcher Marcos Mendoza arid
outfielder Sean Pierce, made the
decision last May to play summer ball.
The only problem was finding
a team.
"We were kind of looking for
a place to play," Mendoza said.
"Then, our pitching coach Rusty
(Filter) said, 'Hey, Bellingham is
open.'11
So the three packed their bags
and headed north. .
It proved to be a uni<!Jue experience. Cota and Mendoza
stayed with'a host family while
. Pierce did the same across the
street. It was an opportunity to
meet new people and enjoy- new
surroundings.

But most importantly for Cota,
it was an opportunity to play
every day.
"
"For him, I think getting the

Bellingham) really made the difference after not playing much

his first two' years," Mendoza
said. "You could tell that he'd
matured a lot and knew how to
play his position."
Said Cota: "In a way, as far as
working out and being committed, Uhink it has correlated into
all thr~e of us having a good season."
The stats bear that out.
Pierce is hitting .358 with a
team-high five home runs. Mendoza has moved from the
bullpen into the starting rotation
and was named National Player
. of the Week after a 17-strikeout
performance on April 20.
And Cota? It seems his summer experience has paid off as
well.
He won the second base position out of spring training and
has not relinquished it. And just
one year' removed from languishing on the bench, Cota is
