Law declares financial aid taxable, Dawson says

by Kristy Jellesed

Laws require swdcnts who have received linanc,al ajd in 1989 to rcpon ii as income on their tax returns, according 10 Connie Dawson, assis tant director of linanciol aid at Nonh Idaho College. ''Not only is College Work Study taxable, but also any grants, scholarships that you (students) received over and above the tuition and fees and any books and supplies or tools that you have receipts for,'' Dawson said.

Loans arc not taxable income and should not be repontd, she said. According to an

H&R Block spokcspcTSOn, students who have children in day care during classes can deduct the amount from the ta.'< return.

To calculate the taxable ponion of a scholarship and/ or grant. subtract the total amount spcn1 on tuition and fees, and books and supplies in 1989 from t.hc total amount of linancial aid recci"ed, D:lwson said. Nc~1. add that figure 10 any work study earnings.

Ra rick's victory fruitful despite wrath of grape

A plump green grape is tossed orr the roof of a four-story building. Falling, it gathers speed as it approaches ..•Tim Rarick'5 wide open mouth?

Rarick, now head of the North Idaho College theater department, caught his fir,t grape sho11ly ofter he graduated rrom collage while working at n ~ummcr job M a roofer. $pc11ing n co-worker eating grape~ on the roof above, Rurick asked 10 have one dropped 10 him.

Through the years Rarick has continued his e,tracurricular activit)'. Recently, after bragging 10 Roger Brockhoff. director of maintcna.ncc at NIC, about catching grapes dropped from a seven-story building, Orockhoff challenged him 10 o duel.

What Brockhorr d1dn'1 know 11as 1ha1 Rarick had "lied" about being able 10 catch a grape dropped from seven stories up (his record is actually four stories) Whal Rarick didn't know was 1ha1 Brockhoff was serious about the challenge and had arranged for a contest 10 take place with the two of them and NIC plumber Bruce Winegarden and Public Relations wricer Wall Ross as conte\tants.

With As.slstan1 Athletic 01rcc1or Jim I lcadlcy os referee, the contest took place ouuidc Bo~well Hall and became a local mim-mc:dia event. Rarick, 11hosc record is catching 13 grapes in a row, c.uily beat che other three participants by catching three or rive grapes in the final round.

Rorick said he wishes he would be rccognved for his contributions to the thcacer rather 1hnn for catching grape1. But the publicity from the laucr ho\ had .1 po,111,e effect on the former, enabling him 10 promote his opera, "Rivcr.ong", on a local 1clcvi~ion news progro.m, wh1'h ran o feature on both ac,ompli,tuncnt, on Jan. 24.

Aggravations Money, it's a hit. Don't give me that do -goody.good bullshit.-From the song Money

by Pink Floyd.

As returning swdents are finishing their third week of the spring semester, many of them may be humming this song as they look longingly into their wallets filled with nothing but cobwebs.

Returning to school after the Christmas season is difficult for many students who, having spenL the be11cr part of their meager funds on presents for friends and relatives, can only look forward 10 the money they will receive from grants and scholarships to get them by.

Unfortunately, most arc disap· pointed to find their pell grant checks have been molested by the school in order to pay the tuition fees the student had thought would be paid with their grants.

However, these grants will not be approved by the Board of Trustees until the end of Febuary-morc than a month after school has started .

As if this isn't enough, when the students go to sell the the book they had purchased for SSO the previous semester, they find it is no longer being used because the instru~tor for that particular course has decided it is time for a change. Not only does this leave that student with a $SO piece of "reference," ii also takes away the chance for a student taking that particular course the following semester to buy a used book at a discount .

While the necessity to change texts is obvious, it should be done at the beginning of the fall

semester when studenLS are a (jttle more financially stable and so books may be sold between semesters.

Speaking of stable, a growing nuisance on campus is the problem of students wasting most of a class period "discussing" irrelevant topics with the instructor or asking repeated questions about things that don't pertain 10 the material being covered in the lecture.

Although these people are to be commended on their enthusiasm, they often take up 20 or more minutes of a 50-minute class-a clru.s that other students also paid to get into. Most students didn't pay their fees to go into a clas~ to hear another student try to show off his of her intelligence; they come 10 listen and learn from n qualified instrucLOr. The students who ore causing these problems are easy to spot.

They can usually be found sitting in the front center of a classroom directly in front of the instructor so they can readily noticed when it's time to suck up.

The students who are dissatisfied with these brown· nosers arc also easy to spot. They are the ones who simply shake their heads and whisper little cruelties to each other such as "Lynch 'im'' or "Oughta be beat severely about the head and shoulders with a blunt object" whenever that familiar hand starts waving in the air.

Unfortunately, the people responsible for these atrocities are so caught up in themselves, they probably won't realize this editorial is directed at them.

LETIERS TO THE EDITOR _ : )

Father gives thanks Dear Sent incl Editor: II i\ d1ff1cult to express the profound reehngs we ha,•e, bur we want rhe student government and students at NIC to know how very nppreciativc we arc that the !irudcnts would honor our son, Todd Crum, with a memorial ,cholanhip.

Although Todd had only returned to NIC in the foll term, it i~ obviou\ that he touched the lives or many" ith his natural lcadcr$hip 11bilitles, love or humani· ty, and sense or responsibility. lie demonstrated wisdom and maturity way beyond his 22 years and had the abilities 10 make significant contributions in this world.

On the evening or Todd's accident the Idaho Stare Patrolman handed me his wallet and I thought "Is this all thar ls lcrt? There must be more to his lire than this, I can not let this young man be rorgo1tcn.'' Thanks to you, the Associated Students at NlC, and through memorial gifts to the NIC Foundation, that though! and prayer has been answered.

On behalf or Todd's family, his friends, and loved ones, we thank you and we arc eternally grateful.

Reiurning to college as an adult has been full of memorable momenis, bu1 I won'1 soon forget the day that I became an " old guy." In fact, 1he da1e is burnecl into my memory: June 13, 1987.

Funny thing is, I never had any warning tha1 this milestone was drawing nigh- it just sort of landed on me like a case of Geritol.

I was required to 1ake 1he college en1rance exam on 1ha1 date so 1ha1 I could finish work on o bachelor's degree. While srnnding in line al Whitworth College, I overheard a pair of frcshlygradunted high school s1uden1s 1olking abou1 the lest and 1hcir fu1urc plans.

" There must be about 600 people here today," one of them said. " And I only recognize a few from our school. " Tha1's when 1hey dropped the bomb. ' 'There are even a couple of old guys in line,'' a perky liule blonde reponcd. " Do you thinl..

It gels worse. " Nah, maybe 1hey're line monitors or somelhing," a third 1eenager chimed in.

As I searched the length of 1he line for the senior citizens in question, my eyes came across only one other adult; a man in his mid-30s who was using these las1 few minu1es to study the ma1h see1ion of his 1es1 preparation bookle1. My skin grew scarlet with shame as I swallowed the biller 1ru1 h: I was old guy No. 2.

I salvaged some small mea}ure of pride when 1he hot morning sun filled the air wi1h the smell of sulphur as it baked down upon hundreds of Clearasil-covered, adolescent faces. Al least my com lexion was clear

The momcnl of comple1c demoralization arrived ,vhen we were instruc1cd 10 carefully examine our compu ter-gcncra1cd admission forms and ma ke certain our names and binhda1es were correci. After verifying my own, I glanced o,er 1he shoulder of the girl in front of me and saw 1he date, 5/ 1/70 on her form. The look ~he gave me when I informed her 1ha1 I thought they made a mis1ake on her bir1hda1e made me ,,ant to era,, I back to my car and slink home.

King's birthday subject of controversy That way no money gcL\ burnt on "unproductive" time and workerl can still alcbrate human rights while having their no~e to the grind11one.

robb brennan Manin Luther King's birthday has come and pa ~ed, but it is still the subjt.~l of controversy.

At first glance it would seem 1h01 there shouldn '1 be a problem 111 ull with rccogni1ing a man wi1h great vi~ion and compassion 1h01 King shared and PO)SC sed. right?

Wrong, there is. Well, perhaps I'm being a lit tle harsh, for in 46 s1n1cs 1ha1 have declared the third Monday of January a state holiday rte0gnizing King there isn't a problem. Those 46 state seem 10 think that hu man rights are impor1ant enough 10 celebrate with a day of freedom from work. school and many other have-tos.

Ah, but things aren't as rosy in the Land O'Spuds because Idaho happens to be one of the four states that d<>e$n' 1 have a state holiday for King and his cause.

Senate bill No. 1348 is catching a lot of heat down in Suit Central. The heat is mainly coming from conservative legislators and business people who don't want to bum money on anot her paid holiday. A paid holiday curs into profits because ~orkers must be paid for not \\Orking.

There 1s talk down south or just ha,·ing a " Human RighlS Day" instead of King's binhday.

But will 1he money saved cover I he cost of 1hc ill image Idaho will projcc1 10 the rest of 1hc nation and 1he world? Norih Idaho already has a public relations dilemma ,,;1h a handful of Hitler wnnnn-bc's in Hayden. How many people ha,e decided no1 10 vi it our grand state? To "" hat ex• 1en1 has thi~ decreased the amount of investment and 101Lrism?

All an Idahoan has 10 do 10 proH that Idaho hns a serious public relations problem is 10 travel out of the state. During m} lrnH'I~ 1hroughou1 the Wcs1 O\'Cr the las1 couple of years, I've had the chance 10 gather , arious impressions of our state. I discovered that Idaho is famous for tY. O lhings: spuds and racists.

Only after long coll\crsa1ions \\ilh people \\ as I able to convince them that there \\as more to do here than eating po1a1oes and \\a1ching skinheads march down main SUttt. Anybody \\ ho has ever btto meknows " hat a gross raJsc dilemma these stcreot)l)CS arc. Why would anyone wish to foster 1hese bogus ideas unless perhaps, they 100 were racislS and really liked to eat potatoes?

Idaho cannot afford 10 lose the great strides that it bas made in civil rights to a bunch of

tightwads down in Suit Central. T\\o steps forward. three steps back rings of rewdatioo.

Besides, what better way is lhcrc 10 unpliment the lrid :le-<lown theory than suppl)ing the little people with a paid day orr financed b>· all the mooe)

The Grecohou~e Effect seems to have little 10 do " ith abortion. As you may ha"e noticed during the past \IC.Ck S.E.A.L. (Student En,ironmental Awa reness L~ague), an ASNIC-iponsorcd club. seems to think that there is a correlation of some kind. Granted both is.sues are 1mponant, but how can celebrating or condemning the anniversary of Roe v. Wade help people to recycle?

By S.E.A.L. sponsoring a certain side of the issue, n bas hindered one of its primary goals. lnnead of bringing up people's awareness of the perilous global situation, they managed to get people to lune them out. By what I know of human nature, people who do 001 agree with S.E.A.L. 's position on abortion probably won't agree with them altogether. This would be too bad because Earth needs all the help she can get.

One more thing, if prcxhoicc doesn't mean pro-abortion, then what d<>C$ ii mean?

f1en said 10 be one of the mos1 difficult to learn for foreigners (as well as our own citizens) 1he American version of the English language often endures additions and interpretations.

One way 1he language changes is with the influx of 1echnology.

NIC developmental education ins1ruc1or Sharon Smith wasn't known in her apartment building for having a computer. One night during nn clcc1rical storm the thunder crashed and the lights nickered.

"Save! Savel" yelled a voice from Lhe apartment above.

On the other hand, a no1 unusual occurrence in a room full of people using computers i~ a dishcarteni ng ''Oh, shit I'' after an elec1ricnl blip blanks the screens.

Should instructors change texts mid-semester?

M ore on our language, Ihis time from the practicing angle.

A student reported that her son and a neighbor were playing with

Wrestling team saves 'the best for last'

by Kim Glrtman After dominating the Clackamas lnviwtional and winning three duals last weekend, the North Idaho College wrestling team is ready to tangle with NAIA powers Simon Fraser University and Western Monwna Colleg:.

The Cardinals wrestle Simon Fraser Fridoy night and Western Montano Saturday. both at 7:30 p.m. in ChriJtionson Gym. "We saved the best for last," Coach John Owen said.

Simon Fraser is en excellent team and is ranked rifth in the NAIA with a 11-2 record, according to Owen. In 1989 the team nnM1cd second in the nation and lirst In 1988.

"Western Montana is going to be more of a threat with six seniors in rhe line up," Owen ~aid. " Ir should be an outstanding and close duel, and ii may even go down 10 the henvyweight deciding the mo1ch."

NIC defeated WMC Nov. 25, 33-S, bur

had los1 10 Lildland 3-0 on Friday and tied

the BuJJdogs' line up is a 101 diffcreJll from then, Owen said.

Two threats for the Cards are seniors Bill Barnhill 01 167 and Mick Cherr. a 1ransrcr from Utah State, al 190, Owen said.

Last weekend NIC won three duels and had live individual champions in the Clackamas Invitational.

Capturing championships for the Cards were Sam Parker at 134, John Sehnert a1 142, Alfonso Lawes at 150, Tom Breeze at 190 and Todd Goodwin a1 heavyweight.

"It was our most productive 1oumarnen1 all season." Owen said.

Parker Improved his record to 2S-2 for the season and is ranked lim in the region as is Goodwin wi1h o record of 25-6.

Breez.c captured his firs! individual college 1ournamcn1 championship, and Sehnerl pinned every wrestler he faced in the 1oumamen1.

One surprise ot the tournament was I.awes' 8-4 win over Mall L1ldland of Clackamas in the linals, Owen said. l..a11,~

Coach says track season looks optimistic

by Mindy Mullen

The Nonh Idaho College track team has started to melt down into the spring season.

"The spring season is looking very op· timistic. At this point in the season we just need to figure out where we arc physically, adjust training and go from there," coach Rob Conner said.

The following was written on the back of a James 8 . Beam whiskey bottle in 1969. Professional baseball was 1..·tJebrating 100 years of c.~istence at this time.

"BASEBALL- Tht national pastimtS/irst rultS wert wrilltn by Abntr DoubltdQ)' in /8J9. That samt year he laid out tht first bastball diamond 01 Cooperstown, N.

Since /869 many MW ltams and leagues have f ormtd to providt Amtriccl with its most popular professional sport.

I imagine baseball pretty much dominated as our most popular sport in its first 100 years and then some. Names like Wagner, Hornsby, Cobb, Ruth, Mays and Clemente were probably often heard on lhe news. Teams liltc the Brooklyn

Baseball, for some time, has been tagged "our national pastime." It "ill probably have the title forever, and rightfully so. I'd sa) it's earned its keep.

M 10 where they'll be and what they'll do on Super Sunday. Many enjoy converging with their budd1C) in a local tavern and perhaps havmg a few Coko or Or. Pepper, betwctn them while screaming at the big screen TV. Clo.,er to home, momma bear cooks a special dinner while papa bear and &On bear make bets on the game and nibble on the chips and dip.

I believe a trend in our tradition has taken a swing in a different direction during the last stveral years. "Taite Mc Out To The 8al1 Game" . the snap of leather, ·•cemerfield" and hot do~ just simply don 'l seem as popular as they once were.

The media also has brought both the Super Bowl and football itself to lncrwmg heights. A "Super Bowl Saturday" on TV. lhc: large amounu of ink in newspapers and a special " Media Day" in New Orltaru tells lhe story.

It might not be so much a decline in populari1}', but perhaps a pin in something else that might have t:riggc«d my observation. Hard hittina, diving catches and instant replays have caught our anention more and more lately. Realistically speaking, football has overtaken baseball as our national pastime.

Basebal), our national pastime, but 001 really.

It would be easy lo base my judgment now sinoc lhe Super Bowl and all its hype are still fresh in our minds and spring training is a couple months away. But I can use football's main tvenl lo justify my point.

The Super Bowl has become practically a holi· ror us. Some people prepare weeks in advance

day

The popularity of a sport is based on an overall basis, not individually. Personally, I'd much rat.her sec a home run than a touchdown.

•••••••••••• Spcalting of Super Sunday, since I couldn't fmd anyone to bet with me on the one game, I dedd· cd to place my wagers on the ever exciting and

entertaining Bud Bowl II. I thought ror sure Bud· way Joe •ouJd lead Bud Liabt victory in the "war" p.me, bur lost a dollar on the ordeal. It definitely turned out to be more popular than that other game they were showing. I tbink...ycs, it was the Super Bowl. Ob well, maybe next year.

A friend of mine who works in a big hospital back ea~, rold me of the wimpering and cryins sounds which could be heard coming from a utility dumpster in the service corridor of the city's largest hospital. The dumpster contai ned a bolled infants and was being wheeled from obstetrics 10 the hospitol incinerator. Some obstetrician has delivered/aborted a number of otherwise viable infants nnd bod unceremoniomly dropped each into n garbage pail 10 die and be picked up by the joniloriol staff. This practice is hoppcnin11 thou~and, of times every day all acrou our country, nnd iL is oil perfectly legal.

I submit thnt there is no difference between lhi~ practice and lhe actions of NBJ.i Oemmny nearly .50 yean ago when the pro1cc1ion of Germon law was formally withdrawn frorn another dn~~ of human beings: the Jcw11. Millio115 of Jews were wheeled to their death,, anJ the incincrotion o,cm, by the Notis in German rnllrond can. II loo was all perfectly lcsal.

"This ncv,. langu:1gc for fees is much more ~ifo: as fllf a:; their use on cam· puses," S1ewan Mlid. " It <hould b, come 11 model for this country's colleges, especially communtty colleg~."

The propoc.al also rL,cs the minimum for resident tuition at $350 per year for fulltime students and al!oW) for a S20 increase cac:h year, to a ma~imum of $450.

Benaeu said he was satisned with the proposal as well. " I'm happy that the students decided to I.like Lhe cap off of tllition. it allows for a new flexibility here on campus.'' Bennett ,aid. "There won'L be any more mistake abou1 how money can be used."

The proposal will have the bi-partisan $Upport of Sens. Mary Lou Reed, D-Cocur il' Alene and Laird Noh. R-Kimberly, according to Stewart.

sionoLely devoted to aboriLOa on demand have already been born.

Since the future legality of widespread abortion is in question, Mr. Ross advises women LO pressure the largely male legislature into a pro-abortion position by "withholding cheir favors" sexually, until Lhe lcgjslamre complies. Herc Mr. Ro~ has stumbled onto the real issue quite by accident . The real ~ue is Lhat the self-absorbed men and women or today's "megcneration" place their own pleasures above the rights or. and their respo115ibihty to, the next generaiion: Lhe unborn generation. Since Mr. Ross advocates SC'<· ual ab5tinence to achieve a legislative goal, why can't he advocate abstinence, and its corollary: marital faithfulness, to pre1·ent the conception of a child which neither partner desires nor has Lhc inclination 10

care for7 By now Mr. Ross's inconsistcnc:ie~ have dissolved into absurdity. People v.ho would seek abortion on demand to avoid the responsibility caused by their acLions are not likely lo practice abstinence in order to achieve some long-term political goal.

Abstinence will scll Lo Lhe "me generation" only os a means to a"oid contracting AIDS, a sort of personal health care mc.uure. . .til.c eating oat bran.

"Let's say I have a horse and I want 10 ride that horse to work. I have to Lie iL up in front of the entrance. That hom is bound to leave remains. In order to get into the school, one would have 10 step through it. In that case, my freedom is imposing on other's freedom . The smoking issue is similar,'' Jurgens said.

Jurgell5 is hoping that peer pressure will do Lhe job of cnfordng th.is policy.
