Zulewski,
from page 2
clear All the crying and complain¬
ing about shows like this doesn't
do nearly as much good as one
simple thing.
If programs like "NYPD Blue"
offend your greater sensibilities,
then reach for the off button on
your remote control and turn off
your TV set. That sends a much
stronger message to advertisers.
When a show doesn't draw an
audience, advertisers won't buy air
time on it. Products don't sell if no
one hears the sales pitch. Same
principle works for a television
show.
People with reasonable intelli¬
gence should also be allowed to
choose what's best for their indi¬
vidual tastes. When you get right
down to it, freedom is what this
country was founded on, including
freedom to protest.
But can't we choose something
better to protest than an entertain¬
ment program? Our country has
many more important and pressing
problems.
Think about that next time a
service station owner is shot dead
for 580. Or a grandfather is beaten
to near-death over a minor traffic
accident. Or someone dies from
AIDS.
Television is a source of enter¬
tainment. It's not the source for
what really ails this society.
Red tape slows the use
of campus amphitheter
By Brent Batty
StaffWriter
Tbe California State Univer¬
sity, Fresno amphitheater sits
quietly on the south side ofcam¬
pus, nestled between tbe Speech
Arts building and the old Music
But why Is it so quiet?
Barring the upcoming alter¬
native band Primus, and tbe
yearly- Air, Guitar show during
Vintage Days, th& CSUF am¬
phitheater is seldom :Usod for
parodiMtiotts to the public and
stud^tbody.
A $12,000 m»yst,pn-to tbe
foams In tbe rear of the amphi-
theaier «yas completed last se-
niesteV.arKldiegrasjiscutregu-
larly, soil would seem thataome-
onc is keeping the amphitheater
in good Shape for possible fu-
ture use, yet stiU tiiere is quiet
"11*3 really up to people thai
want to book it," said Matt
MHeham, program prodrtctian
supervisor for tbe University
Student Union. "We book
people thai want to do it, and if
everything goes through, .then
the production will happen.
"The facility is bookable by
any persdn or organization tbe
wants to use it. Recently, there
have been student commeivcernents.
Air Guitar for Vintage Days and
the Evangelical Free Church put on
a show this summer," MDeham
said.
It seems as though the amphi¬
theater would be used a (ot mote
under such circumstances, yet the
availability of the amphitheter is
another question.
Whomever .decides to use tbe.
amphitheater must get tbe signs-:
tuies of tte&rectiCH-of SftidM,t Ac¬
tivities tfje)3epittT^^
the chief of Campus Police, and the
dean of Student Affairs.
The proposed event must not
mmfere with any other adjacent
event, eucbaiCSUFQicttor&Q-
duchoos or musical recitals. '
'TftbeMusic Department is hav¬
ing a recital going on, they don't
want a big, loud rock conceit at the
same time, so that kind of circum¬
stance usually negates us from bav-
ing quite a few programs ."Mileham
said.
Many promoters of big shows
get frustrated with the red tape that
needs to be sorted through in order
to put on shows,' MiJebam said.
"Off-cam pus promoters are put
on the bottom oftbe list," Mileham
said. "All [outside! promoters are
concerned with is getting tbe date
(bat they want, but we have to
protect the miKtioa of the school
above anything else."
Jennifer Wills, a liberal stud¬
ies senior said, "I'd tike to see
mote alternative music on cam¬
pus. I think that the college scene
is where alternative music
started, so it makes sense to have
shows on the CSUF campus".
"Asa school, I think we're
lucky to have a facility like tbe
amphitheater, satdGinaDauer,
a speech conununications ma¬
jor. "Tin only rime weaver
really use it is during Vintage
Days. ! think we taught lo try to
getasmuchposaliveuseoutofit
as wecan."' '
Kevin Adler. a .senior jour-
iialism.major sad station man¬
ager for. KFSR campus radio,
said that tic wishes there was a
discount for students who want
to put 09 shows.
'Wjh this upcoming Primus
show, we aren't getting a dime
rubbed off of pur cost to put it
on," Adler said. "Why do we
have to pay to goto school here,
and be charged an extra amount
to use the facilities?
"Saidents and student orga¬
nizations should have easy ac¬
cess when it comes to using the
araphimeater," be explained.
