■ * 'entries cannot be returned
CPS-Men and drinking can be
a potentially dangerous mix for
women, researchers of sexual
assault said recently ataconference
on campus rape.
More than 500 deans, faculty
members and. campus security
personnel met for a three day
conference in early October to
discuss sexual assault on
campuses.
"Rape is an emotionally
charged issue that colleges can
deal with," said Bernice Sandler,
who works at the Center for
Women Policy Studies in
Washington, D.C. "Campus rapes
affronts women who haven't been
raped. All women are vulnerable.
Italsohasan impact on men. They
need to have better relationships
with women."
Indeed, there are several
presentations that focused on men
and why they rape. Mary Koss,
who works at the College of
Medicine at the University of
Arizona, presented some statistics
from a poll done at an upstate New
York College. The survey found
that 80 percent of the male
respondents wanted to dominate a
woman; enjoyed the conquest of
sex; and had the attitude that some
women look like they're "just
asking" to be raped.
"Men are attracted to the idea
of them being the sexual aggressor.
Men negotiate relationships based
on myths, so men can misinterpret
information," she! said. "Rape is
an anger crime. Rape can infer a
desire to dominate."
There are demographic
characteristics in males whojiape,
including being hostile to women,
hyper-masculinity, aggressive
behavior, drug use and being a

Goys hold Coming Out Day
CPS- College and university
gay, lesbian and bisexual groups
participated in National Coming
Out Day Oct. 11, a jlay that was
dedicated for people to tell truth
about their lives.
Once you have come out to
someone thcie is euphoria. You're
on the road to integrity," said Lynn
Shepodd, executive director of
National Coming Out Day in Santa
Fe,N.M. "We will never put an
end to anti-gay discrimination until
we are out."
There are numerous, gay,
lesbian and bisexual student groups
on campuses throughout the United
States, and many are using
National Coming Out Day and
week-long activities lo educate the
straight and gay communities.
"We want to reach men and
women who are gay, lesbian and
bisexual and who aren't out yet,"
■
said Brad Berkland, treasurer of
the Ten Percent Society at the
University of Winsconsin-
Madison. "We have b|cn told that
Coming Out Week was important
for some people.because they were
coming to terms with the self."
The Ten Percent Society, a
student support and social group,
had planned several events,
including speakers, workshop and
a dance. This year's theme,
Berkland said, was how minorities
cope with their homosexuality and
the reaction they receive from other
minorities and the gay and lesbian
community.
"We made efforts to include
people of color and women." he
said. "In Madison we have a
reputation of being a white male
organization. We want to try for a

Campus
pub not a
problem
By Suzanne Kayian
Staff Wrrter
On any given weekday, one
can find California State
University, Fresno students having
a beer or sharing a pitcher at the
campus pub, The BuckeL
Many of those students don't
see any negative affect related to
alcohol consumption on their
education or grades.
Sean Fitzpatrick, a junior
majoring in business management,
said, "I don't see a pub on campus
as a big deal," he said. "There
might be a bit of pressure to party
and you have to keep your priorities
straight.
"As long as you can manage to
keep your grades up, there is no
problem," Fitzpatrick said.
Tim Sparrer, who was sharing
a pitcher with Fitzpatrick, said,
"You are here to get a degree, not
to see how much beer or tequila
you can drink. I think, as lorg as
you have a good head about it, and
study if you have a test coming up,
there is no problem.
"Most drinking happens on the
weekend and I have never missed
a test or anything important
because I've had a hangover,"
Sparrer said. "I drink a lot; Jive Or
six days a week and I have a 3.8
GPA overall."
CraigFurlong^rjunior studying
criminology, said, "I know a lot of
people who drink like fish and get
straight As." >
Furlong added, "Overall,
drinking has a negative affect, but
the social aspect increases the
whole college experience."
Jim Del Carlo, ajunior majoring
in criminology, said, "I think
drinking has a positive effect. It is
used as a social tool; a roundabout
benefit is meeting people.
"My education comes first;
party later." .
Ed Dillon who was having
lunch at The Bucket said the
Students' behavior is never out of
line.
*T ve been coming here for three
years and I have never seen any one
doing any excessive drinking;"
Dillon said.
