Learning to count San Ramon style
When most of us were young, starting in the first or second grade or
so. we learned to count in an orderly progression. For instance, we
started with the number "I", went on to "2", continued to "5" and then
to "4", "5" and so on.
Now, upon entering the institution of higher learning known as
California State University, Fresno, we learn that such is not always
the case. It is acceptable to begin with 3 and count 3, 1,5, 2, and end
with 4.
Dont believe us? Check out the San Ramon buildings on either side
of San Ramon Avenue.
The San Ramon arrangement is nothing less than a confusing
labyrinth with the sole purpose of bewildering students who have
business there.
Working ones way west from the intersection of Maple and San
Ramon Avenues, a student will find San Ramon 3, San Ramon 1, the
agriculture mechanics building (where docs that fit in?), and San
Ramon 5, on the north side of the street. Opposite of San Ramon 5 is
San Ramon 2. and east of that is San Ramon 4.
Of course, it takes a major expedition to simply find the buildings'
numbers. A Daily Collegian survey found that some of the numbers
arc on the left corner of the buildings facing the street, some are on the
right corner, and one is in the middle of the building and is partly
hidden by trees.
Lost yet?
No? Then try to find any specific office and see if the confusion
doesn't increase. Offices seem to be numbered randomly but there is
apparently a method to the madness,
San Ramon 4 has the most going for it. If the adventurous syjdent
looks long enough, he will find two small signs indicating odd-
numbered rooms are on one side (facing the street) and even-
numbered rooms on the other (away from the street).
Another point in favor of San Ramon 4 is its signs and maps. That
building, at least, has a map posted that shows where each office is.
There are also signs on some of the departments in the building with
their corresponding room numbers.
Students could sooner get through the deepest equatorial rain
forest than they could get through San Ramon's setup.
Changing a few signs, adding a few maps and renumbering the
entire setup would be a simple solution. It would also make a great
deal of sense. We can just cross our fingers and" hope. Or change the
way we count.

Letters from readers.
Thanks, correction
lo the Fditor:
Wc appreciate very much the excellent
coverage given the Student Health Center
by your reporters. In the article "Flu
Epidemic Swamps CSUF Health Center"
in the paper of February 12. there was an
inadvertent error wc would like to cor reel.
I here were 250-300 students coming
through the Center daily for treatment of
one kind or another. I he record of 68
patient-.•us stated in the article, referred to
those seen bv one nurse in the Cold
Evaluation Center alone.
I he Cold Center averages between 20
and 30 patients daily in non-cpidemic
times. Wc would like to add that the nurse
in the Cold Center is also available to give
a free blood pressure check for students.
No appointment is necessary.

sonal growth as performers, and the feedback helps them to solve problems as they
encounter them." Randall said.
Another way the students can reflect
their growth and personal achievements
on a daily basis is by using the jbumal
provided to them, tn the journals they
record progress in their works anekthc
degree of their success and failure with a
particular work. The studentsare asked to
compile objective thoughts of situations,
problems, and solutions they encounter in
the class. By looking back on their growth
on a daily basis the journal becomes a
valuable document putting their work
into perspective.
Problems they tangle with range from
not enough lower body motion, to changes
in vocal pitch and weak vocal transitions.
Randall keeps a current folder on each
member of the class in which the problems
are recorded, and the student can read his
suggestions and work on improvements.
But the most insurmountable problems
will come after graduation for most of
these students. Action can be modified,
and voices heightened but the job market
for actors, with a 80% unemployment
figure, will be the most difficult obstacle
to overcome in breaking into the field.
The job out look is grim." Randall said.
"The statistics against making it in this
field are mind-boggling. My advice to
students often is to stay out of the professional theater.
"I have known student.actors almost
laughable in their ineptitude, but through
their perserverence have gone on to be-
"I have known student actors almost
laughable in their ineptitude, but through
their perserverence have gone on to be
come successful actors,* he said. On student, who I suggested should think about
another profession, is now starring on a
top television series." Randall said.
There is no way to be certain, but I feel
it is the professor's responsibility to inform anyone considering acting of the
hazards and the odds stacked against
them," Randall said.
The primary ingredients to making it
in this business are: a great deal of d ed ica-
t ion, a lot of talent, a huge amount of luck,
and a rich uncle to finance your career,"
Randall said.
The Hollywood myth of the overnight
■success story is over-rated according to
'Randall. "Potential actors spend at least a
year and possibly more eamingan income
in some other profession—selling shoes or
flipping hamburgers—and it forces many
people to give up,* he said.
"A lot of overnight discoveries plugged
away for 10 years before the overnight got
there," Randall said. 'It is a deceptive
field, and as an instructor I can only suggest and guide. A lot of students with great
potential have been forced to quit and get
a conventional nine to five job with regular hours and the security of a settled
income because of the economy,* Randall
said.
Students are attracted to drama for a
myriad of reasons. 'It attracts introverts
and extroverts, the stage gives a magical
intangible feeling," he said. It becomes an
electric form of communication. The student feels electricity in his role, and he
feels the electric feedback from the audience. It is a heady liquor that becomes
habit-forming.*
The very shy and timid student will
enjoy the stage, because he finds comfort
in the flesh of the character and the works
of the playwright,* he said.
