    THE TUFTS DAILY Wednesday, February 1,1995

    Letters to the Editor Anti-greek graf‘fiti is false, unsubstantiated To the Editor:

    Making a statement against an organi- zation requires that the perpetrator of the negativity possess some degree of knowl- edge about the organization. But, to nega- tively propagandize an organization ac- tively involved in philanthropy and com- munity service shows an obvious lack of knowledge about the Greek system on the part of those spreading negative propa- ganda.

    In response to the “Think, don’t rush” quote, rush affords individuals the oppor- tunity to think; for in rush, an individual has the opportunity to investigate each house four times with no obligation to join. Whereas in joining any other organization, one signs up once and is a member. In rush, a rushee is given a week to visit houses several times and then decide if and which house thatperson would like tojoin. T h i s is definitely a thinking process. It is obvious now that he or she who actually wrote that quote in reference to rush was not a knowl- edgeable person.

    Of utmost importance, however, is. the fact that the opposers of rush did not even have the simple courage to place their

    identity by their beliefs. To make a state- ment stand, it needs support. In this case, the belief is sadly flimsy, but obnoxious enough to afford itself some attention. This attention is completely in the form of con- cern for how high quality students are con- ducting themselves in this situation. Forthe future, those who act in this way should think first, if not about how they are slan- dering a reputable organization, then at least about how they make their beliefs fall to the ground when they do not have any support.

    Jackie Mlinko LA’97

    Chalkers were rude; revealed immaturity To the Editor:

    I am writing in response to the blatant anti-Greekchalking visible around campus today. “The Greek System: the best friend money can buy” was chalked on the cam- pus center as well as “FOOLS RUSH in where ANGELS fear to tread” near the library.

    Remarks such as these deserve no re- sponse. However, response to the action does.

    It is unfortunate that there are some students at Tufts who must still label a

    “book by its cover.” I would ask the anony- mous chalker, “How much do you know about Greek life?’ and “Have you ever participated in Rush activities‘?”

    I am surprised that students were admit- ted into this school who are so rude as to deface their own school property with their opinions. General rules of social etiquette dictate the use of an accepted campus me- dium to convey ideas, such as a newspaper or information session.

    I sincerely hope that these “classy” au- thors will be able to back up their state- ments in a more intelligent fashion in the future. I’m sorry, but part of the deal in accepting admittance into Tufts was inter- action with those different from oneself. If the Greek system offends some people so much, let us know why and we’ll try to ameliorate the situation. However, if peace- ful co-existence with Greeks and those different from oneself cannot oc:cur on this campus, I suggest suchindividuals transfer to a school without a Greek system. The Greek system will be here a long time and I hope that those with opposing views will be able to convey their ideas in a more appropriate manner. As an adult, it’s about time to conduct oneself maturely.

    Whv fraternities are cool J

    by Jay Ruttenberg

    With the exception of Fast Times at Ridgemont High and other junk films involving the wretched Southern California, the first movies I saw bare female boobies in were Animal House and Revenge of the Nerds. Both of these cinematic pieces extol fraterni- ties, and rightly so.

    The first demonstrates how a group of fun-loving, beerswigging slackers spiritually .defeat their blackhearted Alex P. Keaton nemeses. I used to own the Animal House video tape but it eventually broke down, probably due to stress caused by my constant rewinds and fast forwards to the good parts. Revenge ofthe Nerds lives up to its title, as a group of lovable weenies utilize the fraternal order to successfully combat their suppressors. Naturally, their suppressors are all members of the school’s football team, a group that fascistically controls Atoms Computer College.

    So, at a relatively young age, I was already infatu- ated with the Greek system. Someday, I dreamed, I could become a big, fat lout in a toga drunkenly dancing to “Louie Louie” and “Shout,” molesting horny townies, and doing one-armed push ups with hot chicks on my back.

    Soon after my initial fascination with fraternities was spawned, my pompous cousin enrolled in a uni- versity and soon had the honor of joining a house. And what a cool cat he became! “Homework?’ he once snidely told me when he came home to visit the family one Flag Day. “Kid, all I do at school is drink beer, poke babes, and hang with my brothers.”

    But it wasn’t until I entered college myself that I realized just how special fraternities are. What a great school we have, that actually helps sanction, support, and promote organized social groups for the mean

    In high school these cliques are disorganized and borderline chaotic. Unfortunately, most American public schools do not yet have an established system that recognizably aids the popular children in their social exclusion and elitism. While they do have the social opportunities that others are deprived of (like being able to party on Friday evening instead of watching ABC’s complete TGIF sitcom lineup, go to the senior prom instead of eating falafel with this fat dork who couldn’t get a date either, or walking around the school grounds without the constant, nagging fear of getting knifed), the popular students have no formal means of removing those whom they do not deem fit from their social lives. ’ _

    But at college all one needs to do is enlist in one of the many charming fraternity houses around campus. Now we can live, eat, drink, party, smoke, and drink with a group of people just like us. And the frat fees - who gives a hoot about the fees? As long as dad’s already buying an education, surely he can afford to purchase us some friends, too. And while he’s at it, why not throw in all the stupid tail that would rather honk a pair of Greek letters than a decent personality?

    The upcoming rush and pledge period alone helps to demonstrate the system’s virtues. Surely the freshmen planning to join have a great group of friends, who cater to their every need one week in a desperate effort to impress and then quickly reveal their phony facade as they torture the young pledges the next. Rut what kind ,of a friend wouldn ’t make their potential buddies feel like dirt in order to join their group, and then force them to pay money in order to stay involved in it?

    Having no qualms about hiding their blunt superfi- cial phoniness, the fraternity brothers proudly place their perverted social evils on display for the world to admire. So leave any sense of individuality you may

    Bim Skala Bim serious by MELISSA J. BUD

    Senior Staff Writer Except for the Mighty Mighty

    ones, Bim Skala Bim is by far the best ska band that Boston has to offer. Packed into the Paradise or the Middle East, ska fans know they are guaranteed a great bounc- ing evening with Bim. After eight years together, Bim Skala Bim, headed by Dan Vitale, knows how to rile a crowd and keep them happy. The band‘s music is a con- sistent coupling of great instru- mental and lyrical talent.

    True to this reputation is Eyes And Ears (BIB Records, 1994), Bim Skala Bim’s sixth album in eight years. With 14 tracks, and nearly an hour of skankin’ stuff, Bim’s newest is definitely up to par. Although the album overall does not stray far from Bim’s trade- mark sound, in songs like “Pretty Flowers,” Eyes And Ears has a slightly harder, Bosstone-like tone.

    In other places, the influence of Vitale’s side project, Steady Ear- nest, can behead. Steady Earnest’s more traditional ska sound rever- berates through songs like “Set Me Up” and “Train Song.” A slower reggae sound comes up on the album in “Crazy” and others.

    As well, songs like “Come on Over,” “Breakdown Lane,” and “Satellite,” which have Jim Jones’ smoother vocals and less horns, round off the album’s variety of ska-based music with a more rock angle.

    But this is noreal surprise. Bim SkalaBim is known for its breadth of musical style. Bits of reggae, calypso, and rock spattered the band’s last studio album, Bones (1992), and also do so throughout Eyes And Ears.

    Ska band releases new ‘Eyes and Ears ’ The solidly Bim Ska]a Bim

    songs include the title track, “Simple Song,” “No More For- ever,” and “Saving It Up.” These are the cuts that remind the lis- tener -- old fans and new -- of the encompassing and well balanced musical skill the band possesses.

    It is difficult to translate the Bim Skala Bim concert experi- ence to CD. This was the impetus for the Live At The Paradise CD put out early last year. However, Eyes And Ears definitely allows the energy of the band to pour through.

    Which leads to the other great quality of Bim Skala Birn -- the band’s ability to really have fun with its music. Songs like “Skel- eton,” where Vitale croons, “I have got a skeleton living in my skin/ underneath my face I can feel it grin” demonstrate the witty and sometimes goofy lyrical playing that Bim Skala Birn enjoys.

    But, in addition to crazy songwriting, the instrumentals themselves allow the fun to shine through. Trombonist Vincent Nobile, a very talented musician (and lots of fun in concert) plays it up throughout the album. His trom- bone performance becomes a party all its own.

    But whetheroneis interestedin the talent, a great ska beat, well crafted songwriting, or the crazy energy that is ska, Bim Skala Bim is a great choice. And the group’s newest album, Eyes And Ears, is an excellent and longer lasting option to seeing a live perfor- mance. With a solid, talented band, a bouncing sound, and this excel- lent new album, Bim Skala Birn definitely presents itself as a seri-. ous rival to the Mighty ones.

    Gingrich was never a hippie L A U ~ T continued from page 3 his visit to Tufts, and has since visited him in Washington.

    Explaining what seems tomany to be Gingrich’s political meta- morphosis, Laurent says that “no 25-year-oldcan bepickedupat 51 and be the same political creature. I... know that his shift tookplace in the late 70s and early 8Os, when he ran for the House, made it, and went up for his first term.”

    There he met Vin Weber, Rob- ert Walker, and Jack Kemp, early conservatives of the era. “Newt went through a transformation. What people see as arrogant abrasiveness I saw at Tulane as someone interested in intellectual combat.” Laurent points out that this contemporary Gingrich was regarded by numerous observers as the “C-Span baby,” as he uti- lized the growing popularity of what was then novel cable televi- sion to gain wider public recogni-

He cur- rently works as a history profes- sor, and is the Academic Director of the Tufts European Center, a six-week summer program located in Talloires, France. Students may enroll at Talloires to study sum- mer courses which are designed around a theme, while living in a genuine French chateaux and par- ticipating in several day trips.

    EVERY DAY OF THE WEEK?

    Not including weekends. We have to rest too,

    you know.

    No fighting was reported Tues- day. Ecuador’s armed forces said several skirmishes erupted Mon- day, wounding one Ecuadorean soldier.

    MorePeruvian troops -- includ- ing crackcounterinsurgency forces -- traveled toward the border by river boat and trucks, even as dip- lomats gave mixed signals about whether Peru would accept the cease-fire, which Ecuador said took effect at noon.

    In Lima, Rosa Jimenez, a For- eign Ministry press official, said Peru had not yet accepted the truce. But Peru’s acting ambassador in Quito, VicenteRojas, overrode her comments, saying Peru had made no “official statement” on the cease-fire.

    Peruvian Foreign Minister Efrain Goldenberg said Tuesday night his government hoped Peru andEcuadorwouldreachanagree- ment on “suspension of military operations” during negotiations in Brazil.

    “If everything goes according to what was .planned, we will be- gin to withdraw our ships, subma- rines, tanks and artillery,” he said.

    His comments werethe the first

    speak to Clinton of pressing issues

    losing friends to violence in the streets.

    The Youth Council was formed to give the city a better tie to young people. Each young person repre- sents their neighborhood.

    About 100 people stood on the sidewalk near the Statehouse as the presidential motorcade arrived at the city’s Parkman House build- ing, where the meeting was held.

    It was Clinton’s first visit to the. state since the November elec- tions in which Republicans took over Congress. The tone of the visit was less triumphal and more subdued than other visits.

    Still, Democratic activists wel- comed the president to the state as warmly as ever.

    “I think he’ll always get a kick coming to Massachusetts. It’s a state where there’s great support for him and his policies and all the work that he’s done. We know what it is to have a tough road. He’s had that and been quite suc- cessful,” said Gus Bickford, ex- ecutive director of the state Demo- cratic Party.

    Bickford said 1,000 to 1,200 people were expected at a fund- raiserattheParkPlazawheretick- etscost$l,OOOapiece,raisingmore than $1 million for the Democratic National Committee.

    ‘‘I see this as a president that’s heralding his past accomplish- ments and if there’s one place he can do it it’s in Massachusetts,” Bickford said.

    A group of about 30 people protested outside the hotel before

    the fund-raiser. “Fight, Fight, Fight, Welfare is

    Right,” some chanted. Others held signs that said, “Stop the War Against the Poor.”

    ‘We’re here to dispel the myth that Clinton represents the poor,” said Bob Lamothe, a spokesman for the National People’s Cam- paign. “He really and .truly repre- sents the corporations that he’s in there tonight with representatives of.”

    The president was scheduled toreturn to the WhiteHouseTues- day night immediately after the fund-raiser.

    Clinton’s nine trips to the state have included two trips for vaca- tion to Martha’s Vineyard and at least twoother major fund-raisers, Bickford said. In April 1993,just about IOOdays into his presidency, people crowded the North End to see him and lined streets along his travel route.

    Despite the subdued atmo- sphere Tuesday, Paul Watanabe, a political science professor at Uni- versity of Massachusetts-Boston, said Clinton is making a smart move, raising money now.

    While there’s a lot of excite- ment about the new Republican leadership and the “Contract with America,” Watanabe said, many people are also concerned about the direction thecountry is taking.

    “So why not try to tap into that with a major fund-raiser?’ he asked.

    to Ecuador :fire; Peru continues

    official recognition that Peru had moved ships and submarines to- wards Ecuador’s coast.

    Ecuador said the truce was reached through the mediation of the United States, Argentina, Bra- zil and Chile, guarantors of a 1942 treaty that was supposed to define the border.

    Diplomats from those four countries met Tuesday in Rio de Janeiro, and representatives from Ecuador and Peru joined them shortly after midnight. None of the participants made statements before entering the meeting.

    Ecuadorean President Sixto Duran-Ballen had warned that Ecuador would boycott the talks if there was no unconditional cease- fire.

    In ameeting with reporters later in Quito, Duran-Ballen said Peru had delayed setting a time for a cease-fire all day.

    Peruvian President Albert0 Fujimori, who is up for re-election in April, may be concerned that any show of weakness could un- dermine his re-election chances.

    “Fujimori can only produce a cease-fire if he can convince the population that Peru has effec- tively recovered some ground,” political analyst Mirko Laurersaid in Lima.

    Peruvian media reported that Peru -- with a much bigger and better equipped military -- contin- ued reinforcing the border. Among

    I to ignore those dispatched were jungle war- fare experts who have been fight- ing guerrillas and drug traffickers in the Huallaga Valley. -

    The 50-mile section of un- marked border was left over from a 1941 war lost by Ecuador, which was was forced to give up its claim to a swath of jungle that would have doubled its Colorado-sized territory.

    Six deaths have been confirmed since fighting began last week, fueled by nationalistic passions on both sides.

    But news reports say at least 30 Peruvian and Ecuador soldiers have died in the clashes in the Cenepa River region 220 miles southeast of Quito.

    An Ecuadorean army captain in Fort Condor, headquarters for Ecuador’s military border opera- tions, said the Peruvian military was conducting psychological warfare.

    “They’re discussing on radio frequencies monitored by Ecua- dor plans to bomb certain sites at specific times, but the raids never take place,” he said.

    The two sides last fought over the area in 1981, and each side periodically accuses the other of invading the region to stake claims to gold, uranium and possible oil deposits.
