"Most people know to use a
condom, but few people know how
and when to use a condom," Dwyer
said.
"Consistently and correctly" is
the unofficial motto for R.I.S.E.
during this week's events, she said.
R.I.S.E. members will also be
available to answer other safe sex
questions.
The proceeds from the rose sales
wilKbe directed into the R.I.S.E.
program for future events.
"First, we will pay off the cost
of the event, and if the rose*, do
well, we will try other colors for
new events," Dwyer said.
The idea of condom roses came
from an instructor at California
State University, San Marcos,
Whitaker said.
R.I.S.E. is a volunteer, student-
run group on the California State
University, Fresno campus. It
works in conjunction with the
Fresno County Health Agency and
the University Health and Counsel¬
ing Center.
R.I.S.E. operates without any
funding but does use the Health
Center facilities.
There is currently no study that
rates Fresno State in condom usage,
but according to Sam Gitchel,
R.I.S.E. advisor, Fresno State was
rated in a binge drinking study from
last year that showed that safe sex
practices were often ignored during
binge drinking.
Fresno State rated in the "typi¬
cal" range out of 140 schools.
"Condom usage is one of the
factors surrounding binge drink¬
ing," Gitchel said. "Even if some
have good intentions for using a
condom, those ideas go to the way
side."

jor said he did not want to miss the
opportunity to see an individual
who has an impact on changing the
world.
"The pleasure I had of seeing
another man's religious faith was
powerful."
Dr\ sdale said he was at first sur¬
prised by His Holiness' appearance
in a dark hood and gold chains, but
later he saw a humble man in re¬
spect to the authority of his posi¬
tion.
"I was trying to read his hean
and I saw a man who deserves re¬
spect. His message of faith as the
weight of the matter to gain a
nation's identity was very impor¬
tant." said Drysdale, who is a mem¬
ber of the Church of Latter Day

During Karekin I's speech, he
stressed that Armenians should not
limit their educational goals with
their culture.
"I would like students to relate
Armenianology to other studies,"
he said.
Tina Attashian. math major, said,
"I was inspired by his analogy of
education."
She also said that she felt .his
ideas were very modern and that his
message crossed several^nedians of
culture.
With her Armenian background,
she said she could relate with his
concerns about the strong educa¬
tional values that Armenians share
within the church.
Raffy Kahorozian, criminology
major and president of the Arme¬
nian Students Organization, agreed.
"I think that education is the
foundation of any community,"
Kahorozian said. "All his insight
that was shared today was -espe¬
cially positive for the Armenian
community."
I
In addition, geography major
Gail Dodd said she found the in¬
formation from the catholicos to be
interesting.
"I think, regardless of what reli¬
gion people are from, it is the
church's job to educate," said Dodd,
an Armenian Studies 10 student.
Manuel Momjian, a Fresno State
freshman, went to the lecture after
being encouraged by his parents to
attend.
"My parents were very excited
about his visit," Momjian said. "I'm
very proud about his visit but I
didn't know what to expect. I think
His Holiness' main point was that
the emphasis in education should
not be all on book learning, but on
the soul"
"I think his visit is uplifting for
the whole Armenian community,"
Momjian said.
Margaret Ohaneslan, a member
of the Armenian community, was
inspired by His Holiness' message
of spirituality.
"A lot of people are looking for
answers about life. I think if those
people incorporated His Holiness'
ideas about spirituality they would
be happier," Ohaneslan said.
The general feeling for Fresno
State students of Armenian decent
on Friday after the Patriarchs
speech was renewed pride and re¬
spect.
"It doesn't matter who or what
we are, even with all the politics
involved in the church, the essence
of being Armenian was there."
Fresno State student Vahan ■*•
Balekian spent three days with the
Patriarch during his five-day visit
through the Central Valley.
Balekian said he and his family
are old friends to the Catholicos of
all Armenians.
"I think his ideas are very mod¬
ern and his message will effect me
on a day-to-day basis." ^
Though there were many gcflU
thing!* about Karekin I's visit,
Balekian said pride remains an im¬
portant one.
"The feeling that I'm left with
is that I'm very proud of my ethnic
background," he said.
