Roseann&#13;
Mason&#13;
describes&#13;
what she does as&#13;
tilln~s that "just feel like&#13;
they re my job." However,&#13;
those "things"&#13;
earned&#13;
Mason&#13;
the Academic&#13;
Staff&#13;
Distinguished&#13;
Service&#13;
Award.&#13;
Mason&#13;
enjoys&#13;
making&#13;
connections&#13;
between&#13;
dif-&#13;
ferent parts of the&#13;
Parkside&#13;
and with the&#13;
community,&#13;
where&#13;
"con-&#13;
nections&#13;
aren't&#13;
there nat-&#13;
urally. "&#13;
Currently&#13;
Mason&#13;
is the&#13;
coordinator&#13;
of both the&#13;
Writing&#13;
and Tutoring&#13;
Centers.&#13;
She has worked&#13;
to develop&#13;
the programs&#13;
so&#13;
that they would&#13;
"have&#13;
some continuity&#13;
for stu-&#13;
dents."&#13;
She feels that the&#13;
Writing&#13;
and Tutoring&#13;
cen-&#13;
ters playa "middle&#13;
role&#13;
between&#13;
student&#13;
and&#13;
teacher."&#13;
It meant&#13;
a lot to Mason&#13;
that the student&#13;
who nom-&#13;
inated&#13;
her for the award&#13;
was one of the writing&#13;
assistants&#13;
in the Writing&#13;
center.&#13;
Mason&#13;
notes that&#13;
many of the people&#13;
who&#13;
come &#13;
in&#13;
for assistance&#13;
at&#13;
the centers&#13;
later work&#13;
there as tutors.&#13;
Another&#13;
pro/'ect&#13;
Mason&#13;
has been invo ved with is&#13;
using a grant from the&#13;
Wisconsm&#13;
Humanities&#13;
Council&#13;
to have Parkside&#13;
faculty&#13;
teach classes&#13;
at the&#13;
Racine&#13;
Correctional&#13;
Institution.&#13;
"Most&#13;
of the faculty&#13;
who&#13;
were involved&#13;
were quite&#13;
impressed&#13;
and amazed&#13;
at&#13;
the interest&#13;
level and the&#13;
enthusiasm&#13;
of the&#13;
inmates,"&#13;
Mason&#13;
said.&#13;
"That&#13;
connection&#13;
... really&#13;
serves&#13;
one of the missions&#13;
of the university,&#13;
to &#13;
serve&#13;
the community."&#13;

justice&#13;
job for you. Apply&#13;
at the Senate&#13;

an&#13;
Executive&#13;
Branch,&#13;
a Judicial&#13;
Branch&#13;
and a Legislative&#13;
Branch&#13;
(Student&#13;
Senate).&#13;
"The President&#13;
of PSGAappoints&#13;
jus-&#13;
tices. Then they are approved&#13;
by the&#13;
Senate&#13;
and then by the Chancellor,"&#13;
states Ty Wilda.&#13;
Wilda was appointed&#13;
by&#13;
Tom Richie,&#13;
PSGAPresident,&#13;
at the end&#13;
of last year and is now waiting&#13;
for the&#13;
Chancellor's&#13;
approval.&#13;
The waiting&#13;
has caused&#13;
Wilda&#13;
to doubt&#13;
whether&#13;
be&#13;
wants&#13;
tills potential&#13;
PSGAposition,&#13;
as&#13;
he was a Senator&#13;
for one and a half&#13;
years.&#13;
The other appointee,&#13;
Mike Bovee&#13;
is&#13;
waiting&#13;
for Chancellor&#13;
approval&#13;
also.&#13;
Wendy&#13;
Paul and Matt Stephan&#13;
obtained&#13;
Chancellor&#13;
approval.&#13;
Stephan,&#13;
howev-&#13;
er, is the only justice,&#13;
because&#13;
Paul&#13;
resigned.&#13;
"The majority&#13;
of justices,&#13;
including&#13;
Chief Justices,&#13;
have graduated,"&#13;
In Mason's&#13;

she is&#13;
having&#13;
students&#13;
use&#13;
e-mailto&#13;
write to students&#13;
at Northeastern&#13;
Univer-&#13;
sity in Boston&#13;
for feedback&#13;
on their essays.&#13;
The&#13;
theme&#13;
students&#13;
will be&#13;
working&#13;
on is the culture&#13;
of school.&#13;
"I think the students&#13;
might&#13;
resist it a&#13;
little ...but ..&#13;
.I&#13;
think it will&#13;
give them a broader&#13;
sense&#13;

at least."&#13;

What&#13;
is to become&#13;
of &#13;
Voyager?&#13;
The&#13;
second&#13;
season&#13;
has&#13;
begun&#13;
after&#13;
a truncated&#13;
first&#13;
season&#13;
of&#13;
only&#13;
16 episodes,&#13;
but&#13;
the&#13;
show&#13;
so&#13;
far&#13;
leaves&#13;
me&#13;
cold.&#13;
I have&#13;
taken&#13;
an&#13;
informal&#13;
poll&#13;
of my&#13;
friends&#13;
(die-hard&#13;
Trekkers),&#13;
and&#13;
all&#13;
agree&#13;
that&#13;
serious&#13;
changes&#13;
must&#13;
be &#13;
made.&#13;
Part&#13;
of the&#13;
problem&#13;
is that&#13;
some&#13;
of the&#13;
characters'&#13;
reac-&#13;
tions&#13;
are&#13;
not&#13;
believable&#13;
because&#13;
there&#13;
has&#13;
been&#13;
little&#13;
character&#13;
development.&#13;
Case&#13;
in point:&#13;
Harry&#13;
Kim.&#13;
In the&#13;
"pleasure&#13;
seeker&#13;
episode,"&#13;
Kim&#13;
didn't&#13;
seem&#13;
to know&#13;
that&#13;
an&#13;
attractive&#13;
young&#13;
lady&#13;
was&#13;
hitting&#13;
on&#13;
him.&#13;
Now,&#13;
I'm&#13;
sorry,&#13;
but&#13;
naive&#13;
or not,&#13;
most&#13;
guys&#13;
wilI &#13;
notice&#13;
when&#13;
a&#13;
girl&#13;
is interested,&#13;
much&#13;
less&#13;
actually&#13;
hitting&#13;
on&#13;
them,&#13;
so this&#13;
was&#13;
not&#13;
credible.&#13;
Some&#13;
stories&#13;
have&#13;
been&#13;
copy-&#13;
ing&#13;
too&#13;
many&#13;
of the&#13;
original&#13;
Star Trek &#13;
episodes.&#13;
The&#13;
Voyager&#13;
ep,isode&#13;
"Faces,"&#13;
in which&#13;
B Elanna&#13;
Torres&#13;
(chief&#13;
engi-&#13;
neer)&#13;
gets&#13;
split&#13;
into&#13;
her&#13;
compo-&#13;
nent&#13;
human&#13;
and&#13;
Klingon&#13;
parts,&#13;
reminded&#13;
me&#13;
of "The&#13;
Enemy&#13;
Within."&#13;
This&#13;
was&#13;
one&#13;
of the&#13;
best&#13;
classic&#13;
"original"&#13;
Star Trek&#13;
shows.&#13;
In "The&#13;
Enemy&#13;
Within,"&#13;
Kirk&#13;
is split&#13;
into&#13;
his&#13;
component&#13;
"halves"&#13;
(good&#13;
and&#13;
evil)&#13;
via&#13;
transporter&#13;
accident,&#13;
and&#13;
learns&#13;
through&#13;
the&#13;
episode&#13;
that&#13;
he&#13;
needs&#13;
both&#13;
halves&#13;
of himself&#13;
to&#13;
survive.&#13;
Without&#13;
both&#13;
halves,&#13;
Kirk&#13;
found&#13;
that&#13;
he&#13;
wasn't&#13;
a&#13;
"whole"&#13;
man. In "Faces,"&#13;
Torres&#13;
learns&#13;
through&#13;
the&#13;
episode&#13;
that&#13;
she&#13;
needs&#13;
both&#13;
halves&#13;
of herself&#13;
to survive-s-just&#13;
as Jim&#13;
Kirk&#13;
did.&#13;
This&#13;
story,&#13;
while&#13;
still&#13;
good,&#13;
is&#13;
hardly&#13;
original.&#13;
Unfortunately,&#13;
most&#13;
of &#13;
Voyagers&#13;
shows&#13;
don't&#13;
do&#13;
even&#13;
this&#13;
well&#13;
on&#13;
the&#13;
origi-&#13;
nality&#13;
scale!&#13;
Also,&#13;
I have&#13;
a real&#13;
problem&#13;
with&#13;
Captain&#13;
Kathryn&#13;
Janeway.&#13;
She&#13;
seems&#13;
to have&#13;
a very&#13;
incomplete,&#13;
and&#13;
at times&#13;
even&#13;
schizoid,&#13;
personality.&#13;
Most&#13;
of&#13;
the&#13;
time,&#13;
Janeway&#13;
fails&#13;
to pro-&#13;
ject&#13;
a commanding&#13;
presence.&#13;
Once&#13;
again,&#13;
the&#13;
"pleasure&#13;
seek-&#13;
er"&#13;
episode&#13;
rears&#13;
its&#13;
ugly&#13;
head.&#13;
Man,&#13;
this&#13;
episode&#13;
really&#13;
had&#13;
its&#13;
problems!&#13;
During&#13;
this&#13;
episode,&#13;
Janeway&#13;
was&#13;
Far&#13;
too&#13;
indecisive&#13;
with&#13;
the&#13;
"pleasure&#13;
seeker"&#13;
com-&#13;
mander,&#13;
mainly&#13;
because&#13;
she&#13;
seemed&#13;
attracted&#13;
to him.&#13;
Would&#13;
this&#13;
have&#13;
ever &#13;
happened&#13;
to Jim&#13;
Kirk?&#13;
He&#13;
would&#13;
have&#13;
charmed&#13;
the&#13;
"pleasure&#13;
seeker"&#13;
comman-&#13;
der&#13;
into&#13;
giving&#13;
up&#13;
the&#13;
technolo-&#13;
gy!&#13;
Sometimes,&#13;
"love&#13;
'em&#13;
and&#13;
leave&#13;
'em"&#13;
has&#13;
its&#13;
advantages.&#13;
This&#13;
leaves&#13;
the&#13;
decision&#13;
to&#13;
forcibly&#13;
acquire&#13;
the&#13;
technology&#13;
remember,&#13;
Voyager&#13;
does&#13;
want&#13;
to&#13;
get&#13;
home&#13;
to the&#13;
Alpha&#13;
Quadrant&#13;
in this&#13;
lifetime&#13;
to Tuvok,&#13;
B'Elanna&#13;
Torres,&#13;
and&#13;
Ensign&#13;
Seska.&#13;
In other&#13;
words,&#13;
they&#13;
have&#13;
the&#13;
initiative&#13;
that&#13;
Captain&#13;
Janeway&#13;
lacked.&#13;
When&#13;
Janeway&#13;
finds&#13;
out&#13;
that&#13;
they&#13;
did&#13;
this,&#13;
behind&#13;
her&#13;
back&#13;
no&#13;
less,&#13;
she&#13;
dresses&#13;
down&#13;
Torres,&#13;
as any&#13;
gOOd&#13;
Captain&#13;
would.&#13;
However,&#13;
her&#13;
characterization&#13;
fails&#13;
when&#13;
she&#13;
plaintively&#13;
wails&#13;
to Tuvok,&#13;
"I&#13;
thought&#13;
that&#13;
you&#13;
were&#13;
my&#13;
friend!"&#13;
I don't&#13;
know&#13;
of any&#13;
captain&#13;
that&#13;
would&#13;
do&#13;
this,&#13;
ever &#13;
I&#13;
A captain&#13;
might&#13;
say&#13;
instead,&#13;
.&#13;
"You're&#13;
my&#13;
friend&#13;
and&#13;
you&#13;
do&#13;
this?&#13;
What&#13;
kind&#13;
of friend&#13;
are&#13;
you,&#13;
anyway?&#13;
Don't&#13;
you&#13;
EVER&#13;
do'&#13;
that&#13;
again,&#13;
or I'll&#13;
throw&#13;
you&#13;
out'&#13;
an&#13;
airlock!"&#13;
I&#13;
On &#13;

to prevent&#13;
the&#13;

Review&#13;
Pulp Fiction&#13;
• Ty&#13;
Wilda&#13;
Entertainment&#13;
Editor&#13;
Quentin&#13;
Tarantino's&#13;
breakthrough&#13;
film,&#13;
Pulp&#13;
Fiction,&#13;
will&#13;
be&#13;
released&#13;
on&#13;
home&#13;
video&#13;
this&#13;
week&#13;
and&#13;
so it is time&#13;
to take&#13;
a look&#13;
back&#13;
at what&#13;
made&#13;
it such&#13;
a&#13;
talked&#13;
about&#13;
movie.&#13;
Pulp Fiction&#13;
begins&#13;
and&#13;
ends&#13;
with&#13;
a restaurant&#13;
rob-&#13;
bery.&#13;
Between&#13;
that&#13;
there's&#13;
the&#13;
performance&#13;
of a paid&#13;
killing,&#13;
a boxer's&#13;
death&#13;
a&#13;
heroin&#13;
overdose,&#13;
a homo-&#13;
sexual&#13;
gang&#13;
rape,&#13;
a sense-&#13;
less&#13;
and&#13;
silly&#13;
accidental&#13;
shooting&#13;
death&#13;
and&#13;
the&#13;
semi-literate&#13;
philosophical&#13;
ramblings&#13;
of John&#13;
Travolta&#13;
as Vincent&#13;
Vega.&#13;
Not&#13;
nec-&#13;
essarily&#13;
in that&#13;
order.&#13;
All&#13;
this&#13;
violence&#13;
and&#13;
more&#13;
occurs&#13;
in a time-shifting&#13;
plot&#13;
sequence&#13;
that&#13;
camofIages&#13;
the&#13;
fact&#13;
that&#13;
the&#13;
film&#13;
is truly&#13;
more&#13;
of an&#13;
anthology&#13;
than&#13;
a full&#13;
length&#13;
feature.&#13;
what&#13;
Pulp &#13;
is truly,&#13;
is a&#13;
tribute&#13;
of sorts&#13;
to the&#13;
old&#13;
gangster&#13;
films&#13;
of the&#13;
'40s&#13;
It is brutally&#13;
violent&#13;
and'&#13;
non-stop.&#13;
From&#13;
the&#13;
ram-&#13;
bling&#13;
debates&#13;
of Jules&#13;
and&#13;
Vincent&#13;
(Samuel&#13;
L. &#13;
Jackson&#13;
and&#13;
John&#13;
Travolta&#13;
in capti-&#13;
vating&#13;
contrast&#13;
to each&#13;
other)&#13;
to the&#13;
desperation&#13;
of&#13;
the&#13;
boxer,&#13;
Butch&#13;
(Bruce&#13;
Willis)&#13;
to the&#13;
formal&#13;
effi-&#13;
ciency&#13;
of Mr.&#13;
Wolffe&#13;
(Harvey&#13;
Keitel)&#13;
there&#13;
is a&#13;
sense&#13;
that&#13;
these&#13;
characters&#13;
are&#13;
caught&#13;
in a world&#13;
out&#13;
of&#13;
their&#13;
control&#13;
and&#13;
just&#13;
try-&#13;
mg&#13;
to hang&#13;
on.&#13;
The&#13;
world&#13;
of this&#13;
movie&#13;
is an&#13;
unreal&#13;
place,&#13;
driven&#13;
by&#13;
coinci-&#13;
dence&#13;
and&#13;
luck,&#13;
a world&#13;
where&#13;
everyone&#13;
is a bad&#13;
guy&#13;
just&#13;
doing&#13;
what&#13;
it takes&#13;
to get&#13;
to ,some&#13;
sort&#13;
of&#13;
redemption,&#13;
Some&#13;
criticized&#13;
the&#13;
movie&#13;
for&#13;
its&#13;
violent&#13;
content.&#13;
Yes,&#13;
it does&#13;
have&#13;
a high&#13;
body&#13;
count&#13;
and&#13;
an&#13;
air&#13;
of sense-&#13;
lessness.&#13;
But&#13;
rather&#13;
than&#13;
a&#13;
glorification&#13;
of violence&#13;
it&#13;
is merely&#13;
a portrayal&#13;
of &#13;
it.&#13;
The&#13;
humor&#13;
m the&#13;
film&#13;
is&#13;
black&#13;
and&#13;
inappropriate.&#13;
It&#13;
u &#13;
IS&#13;
nervous&#13;
laughter&#13;
and&#13;
shock.&#13;
Not&#13;
the&#13;
cartoon&#13;
vio-&#13;
lence&#13;
of the&#13;
standard&#13;
action&#13;
flick,&#13;
but&#13;
a violence&#13;
that&#13;
gets&#13;
its&#13;
impact&#13;
from&#13;
bemg&#13;
nasty&#13;
and&#13;
unbeliev-&#13;
able.&#13;
In the&#13;
end,&#13;
Pulp Fiction&#13;
is&#13;
film&#13;
noir&#13;
for&#13;
the&#13;
90's.&#13;
A&#13;
send&#13;
up&#13;
of gangster&#13;
movies,&#13;
1970s&#13;
drug&#13;
and&#13;
blaxploitation&#13;
films&#13;
and&#13;
even&#13;
today's&#13;
action&#13;
hero.&#13;
A&#13;
hard&#13;
hitting,&#13;
no&#13;
holds&#13;
barred&#13;
adventure&#13;
that&#13;
hides&#13;
meaning&#13;
in the&#13;
meaningless&#13;
and&#13;
is real&#13;
through&#13;
unreality.&#13;
