While acting director Bonnie
Okamoto and her slaff have

bega.n the process or search­
mg for a new director for Lhe

Prnfessor of History
Steven Beckham is leading
the starch comm1ue.c, which
has received approximately
50 apphc:11ions from around
the country, From 1h1s appli­
cant pool, four candidates arc
being brought 10 our campus
for visits and m1crv1ews.
ASLC Vice President for Sm•

Bailey, thcsoles1uden1 on the

students needed to have ;1n

said. While the lunches were
not always auended by many
studcms, Bailey feels I hat s1u­
den1s were able 10 express
,heir opinions 10 her, and that
the search commi11ec hs1r~1ed
to those commems.
Many students did not
know that the library was
wi1houta director and had no
idea 1hn1 n search was under­
way. Other students fol1 1ltat
their panic1pa1ion In the pro•

However, some students
have expressed how impor•
1an1 the director position is 10
1he library, and the student
body as a whole. "The num­

dressed the role 1ha1 men play
in the problem of rape and

the evening's prescnuuion were
quile lntc::nst at times, even mov•

spi1e of 1he pain, there was a
sense of hope. This aspect was
conveyed by Mulcahy's closing
words; in spite or the darkness,
"there is always available light."

James said that there arc other
possible reasons why people
would be hyper-aware or what
he is saying:Jamcs is black. "It's
because I look different and

James indlca,cd Lhat it is un,

For James. all issues revolve

Angst abroad: it's hard to avoid insulting host family
by Michael Folland
I have enjoyed taking classes
and leammg a forc1gn lang\l.tge
for the last month m Japan, but
hvmg wtth a Japanese host fam­
H)1 :and undcrst;mchng their cus-
10ins has be.c.n a s1n1gglc.
In order 10 prepare myself to
live wtth aJap;mcs,· host family,
I read up on the Japanese
hfestyle. While books c.m teach
you 10 take off yom shoes when
you enter s:ornconcS house and
the ofuro style of bathing, there
arc other rules which c.tn only
be learned through experience.
Just when I thought I under­
stood all about Japanese cus•
toms, I rind my sci[ receiving
strange looks as I naively munch
on my Pocky (long, cookie-like
stick covered in chocolate}. Al­
though it is not taboo, most
Japanese don't cal and walk at
the same time. Herc nre jus1 a
rew examples to i1lusnate my
struggles 10 interpret my Japa­
nese host [amity's customs.
Shonly after returning home rrom school around 6:00 p.m ..
my host mother invited me 10
have some chocolate t:l kc and
tea. Since the slice was sm~11. I
ate as slowly a, possible, s.wor­
ing each bttc. When I was half­
way finished, my host mother
suddenly sat upnght on the cclgc
or her chair, staring down at my
c~ke wtth wide eyes, dropped
jaw, and a look of rear. She
pointed at the strawberry on top
of my cake and in qu,ct tone of
disl>chef sait.l, "You don'L like?·
I quickly replied, "Oh, I love
strnwberrics. I'm just saving it
for the l,ist bile.• She seemed to
relax a bit and nodded her head
in approval or my answer. I was
able to Cinish my cake without
any more strange ombursts.
l rewmcd to my r<,om nnd sat
on my rolled up futon as I con­
templated how I could avoid up­
scu ing my host mother again.
The only conclusion I could
make was to cat the bes, foods
nrs1. and perhaps 10 eat a little
more quickly in order 10 show my appreciation for Ill)' host
mother's cooking.
This same evening I was
called to h:.we-dinner :tround
9:30 p.m. The prcscnta1ion of
dinner was. as usual, beautiful.
In front or me was n bowl or rice,
miso soup, chopped carrots and
,,cgctahles, and a plate of yaki
soba {snba noodles stir-fried
with vegCLables and a tasty
sauce). /\s I began eating, my
taste buds were overwhelmed by
the taste of one of my fovorttc
Japanese foods, yaki soba.
Munched ovi:r my plate, I at<
raptdly.
I heard before coming 10 Ja•
pan that it is considc-rcd polite
10 slurp your food, and tlus I did
with great gusto as f ravenously
devoured the yaki soba in order
10 show my enjoyment for the
delicious dinner in hopes or get­
ting on my host mothers good
side.
When I was about hal(-way
done with my plate of yaki soba.
l felt a sudden loss of appetite as I looked up from my plate into
the squinting eyes ancl wrinkled
forehead or mi• host mother I
knew I had done something
wrong because she had the same
expression ~•s the time she
scolded me for 1aking Lhe jam
out of the refrigerator without
saying, "Jamu wo 1abe1c mo ii
cksuka?• \Vhich means ... May l
cat some jam?" h was a look of
disappoi111n1c111, ,hsgust, nnd
con[usion. She could not umlcr­
stand why I hnd such strange
habits, :.mcl why it was so hard
for me IU learn Japanrse cus•
toms. l J?,Ulpcd what rc-mained in
my mouth and prepared myseH
for whatever m lhe world l had
done wrong. She explained 10
me that in Japan it is rude to cat
o large amount or one type or
food while ignoring the other
courses.
The following evening at din­
ner I ,= incredibly careful not
to tat lOO much nee or miso
soup or other food at one time.
Like• tunic who sticks his head out of his shell after:, hnil s1onn.
1 slowly t0ok only a few small
bites or one dish before moving
on 10 nnothcr item.
Towards the end or dinner my
host mot her said I had done very
well. I felt so proud for finally
doing something ngh1 !hat I
nodded my head m agreement
an<l said ... Arigato," meaning,
thank you.
Whoops, ye1 another mistake
111ndc If you want 10 be sure 10
give som.eone in Japan Lhe 11n­
prcssion that you arc arrogant
aucl pomr><ms you can do so by
saying 1hc simple word "ang~no"
after receiving a complimem. In
Japan. where humbleness is
such a high-valued quality, ti 1s
more polhc. to Lurn down com ..
plimcnts.
For students who plan 10 do
a homcstay m another COLtmry,
JUSL remember if lhcrc nrc.· any
cuslOms to be broken which wall
make you appear rude or dis­
councous, ch:mccs are you will
end up doing JUSI that.
