by Meaghan Lamarre
As my 1cnurcas Editor-m-Chief comes

ing remarks.
At the bcginnmg of 1h1syear, I issued
a challenge on behalf of 1hc Pioneer Log.
\Ve encouraged students lO((UCStion their
hchds and assumpuons. 1.0 consider. ror
once. the 01hcr poi111 of view, and 10 m•
volvc themselves in reasoned dcba1c of
lSSucs. Throughout the year we've 1ncd
to encourage this through our stones and
invcsugation.s. h 1s my hope that we have
succeeded 111 ra1smg awareness or some
of the issues we <lcnl wuh on dus cam•
pus. :rnd tn creating ~ more rcspcctfol
cnvironmcni for chscuss10n and debace.
As the Echtor of 1lus newspaper, I have
hr1d a strong com1n1uncnt 10 l'rcedom or
speech. 1 think II is an cssemial ngh, 10
our freedom and 111s 1mcgral m our eclu ..
ca11onal process.
Bui overt he course ol 1h1s year, I hnve
cncounL<:rcd resistance from some foe•
lions on campus It sec-ms th:it mnny stu­
dents don't supporl 1he rrccdom or un­
popular speech I encourage everyone to
reconsider this pos111on Freedom of
speech means r rccdom ol speech lor cv•
eryone -1101 JUSL the speech you agree

I bchcve that 11 "iruc 1ha1 we sho11ld

This being my last issue, I thought I
might burn a few bridges (af1er all, once
you've crossed over, wha1 good arc they?).
But I can't, or rather, I don't want to. Its
too late in I he game to relive or stare new
shil I'm 111rnmg over a new leaf; happy
and helprul. Somebody also suggested I
confess to all the campus "Crime Beats•

I saw a girl I knew freshman year re­
cently, and she asked me what I'd figured
ou1 in four years. Academies nsldc (aren't
they always?), there ain't a whole lot 1<>
tell. Most everything comes from expen­
ence, and four years of any life 1s hound
10 be full of funny, sad. amazrng and
ironic experiences. Sot 1hough1 I'd leave
the school, the reader, somebody. some
advice I've gleaned from four long years
here. Herc, then. in no p:1rLicuk1r order,
arc a cluzen pearls of wisdom for the LC
commumty.
I. If they won't wake up, call on am­
bulance.
2.Jus1 bectusc she says you c1n date
mher people docs not mean you should.
3. Radical liberals can be jll.Sl as rcac­
lionnry, narrow-mmdl'cl, anti .stubborn as
the extreme right
4. Nakedness is not always sexy.
5. Anyone-can be ..._our.lgtous m n en•
,;is~ lhc truly trustworthy ones prove
thrmselves 1n long hours or borc<lom.
6. Never drink near easily accessible
weapons
7. If you don't remember. don't ask
8. The tighter you hold onto some­
body, the more likd)• i•ou arc 10 lose them.
Ukcwasc, you can'1 c1nim what you don't

values attached 10 them. This final bbh ls worth blah blah of your final grade m rh,s

plll o rcspcciablc. amount or cUon into each one. In fact you nnghl even JOI do\\1n a
"liule• list of all these big huge final 1hmgs 1hm you've gm 10 do. After compleiing
the list, your jaw drops. How arc you gomg 10 get all 1ha1 stuff clone m the next 1hree
weeks? ltS m,possiblc ... a rncre mortal canno1 do 11.
Then you start rcmembermg back 10 four months ago lookmg down at a .sinular
l1Sl nnd even having the .same thoughts. L:.lst scmcsler you cn<lcd up gcning the
impossible clone. You even d,cl a good olc' bang up job on a few of them. By golly ii
ls possible 10 get 1h1s plethora offlnal wha11101s that you have before you. Heck, you
might even have some tune lO go smoke a bowl one night or do ,vhatcvcr you. do
when you have some free tune.
The other day I was walkmg around our compus. h was about three in 1he morn•
lng and everything was so beautiful and qu1c1. I was up work mg on one of my "final
1hing1cs". This particular one I bad waited until 1he very lasl momcm 10 do and
'because of 1h1s I hnd 10 stay up all tha1 nigh, 111 order 10 f1msh IL Whik in the nndclle
of workmg on II I got the sudden urge 10 walk 10 Akm. I don'I know why I got 1he
urge Maybe II had somc1h111g to do w11h Akm being 1he all female dorm ... I should
have kept work111g on nty paper but at three 111 the morning n's very d1fficul110 rcSlSt
1hc random impulses that one gets You're or1c11 extremely tired and your defenses
arc worn down.
I'm just happy 1ha1 I didn't get any reallv stupid like 1rymg 10 convmcc President
Mooney to adopt me n.s his son and :mo,m me as his heir so 1h:n one d:l) t could
become the lord ol the munor house and the Lewis &-Clark grounds. All would have
10 how dnwn to me and I'd get LO wear silk nnd vclvc1 or whall·vcr those !tilly f\)bcs
arc made out ol that the Professors w~r durms convocauon or co111111enccmcnt
But while w-:tlkmg over to Akm a rcvda11on hit me. 11 occurred Lo me 1hat wou1cln"t
life be so much more enjoyable ,r 111s1ead or bc111g born n human you were born a

you have plngurng you at the present moment /\ II you would have 10 do 1s collect

Then the cold cruel hand of rt'alny hit me. Bcmg n sqmrrcl would be egregious. II
you're lucky you m1gh1 live in a d,mgy hule hole lllJI ircet1nd you probably wouldn t

I lenee I rc,ilized how lucky I am 10 be a human. Term papers aren't that bad when
compared 10 spend vourcx1stcncc runnmg for your lire smcc some big mean thing 1.s

So while you're busy slaving away at your fmal pr<>JeCIS or who1ever they're called
111 your instance please remember (n) that you can gel everything done even ,hough
01 times II seems impossible 10 do, (b) 10 ignore any ol' tl,c random scary 1hou~hts
you get while working on your flnals especially ,r (hey mvolve Michael Mooney or
Akm girls, {c} although you should go rightaheacl nncl pay allentton 10 those 1houghts
ii they mvolvc both Michael Mooney and Akm girls, for those 1hough1s arc emn•
plctely normal and we all have them here at Lew•~ & Clark h's just that no one talks
about them. You are not alone. There nre 01hcrs JUSI like you who are plagued by
fa111as1cs involving Akm girls and the College President m odd and compnsing s11u­
auons. You shouldn't be ashamed any longer my child.
Finals have 1h1s 1endency of domg weml 1hmgs to all of us (heck this aruclc
1s a perfect example}. Dunng this 11111c we must remember lhnt we'll gel everything
done (even though II might seem unpossible} and we'll start ;ictmg nomrnlly aguin

As seniors scramble to finish those finals, pass those classes and
generally prepare to exit this sheltered academic world, it's a time for
most to look back on their years of education -both formal and
informal. We have taken this opportunity to interview a number of
graduating seniors who have interesting stories to share.
We regret that we could not interview every senior, as we realize each
of them has a story to tell.
Congratulations to the entire lewis & Clark class of 2001 !

'I would like 10 point ou1 that

So why was this? Because
they deluded themselves. They
made It seem like a piece of fic­

on the dead, and avoided the
problem by pouring themselves

During one scene, several
women were joyed by the death

GRAPHIC COUJttnY LC THU.TRI-DEfl,AAlMOIT A typical 50s town beset by plague and death is the setting for the Spring Mainstage
production of Ionesco's The Killing Ciame.
The Kifll11g Gmnc. The audience
saw nn Ironic look at sodcty,
consumerism, and the illusions
we create 10 avoid reality.
I w;is initially struck by the
scl, n cartoonish caric~llurc uf
buildings and shops. It looks like
something you'd sec [or a
children·s fairy talc play, replete
whh garish colors ,nd runny
doors.
Suddenly, actors come out of
side doors, garbed in 50s suits
and dresses and running about
with stupid grins on their faces
as if to match the whimsical set.
It was a strange opening, surely,
and one which docs not h1111 at

strucuon
An unexplainable plnguc had
hit this quiet. God-feanng town
People fell in the streets for no
apparent reason, dyrng by the
thousands Scene after scene
rolled h) with people dropping
like Oics.
8111 the deaths, after you 11e1
over the_ tnilial shock, aren't
quite as surprising as the storyline [or a bad soap opera.
One particularly slriking
scc.nc was one in which Lhe 0-
nal momenis of 1wo couples
were mirrored on s1agc. One or
each of them was dying, and the
scene showed I he reac11011s or
1 he couples.
Everything happened simul­
taneously with a notable cxccp•
1Jon: while the actors on the left
side of the stage were caught up
in I he emotional realism of I he
Silutllion, the. actors on the right
were acting as ,f in a sitcom,
treating 1hc slma1ion as ifil were
a humorous £\uke.
There was cvtn an .1udicncc
onsmge, laughmgasa man died
and his wl[e bumbled about.
In another sctnc, doctors
were discussing why this plague
had come about Some blamed
lhc v1cll111s, saying 1h:11 they
dldn'1 follow 1he rules ,,l hy­
giene. Others 1hough1 that
people died because or 1hdr be­
lief In death Sull others thought
Ll,01 death was inc"itablc and
that everyone would die. And cally (well, kind of).
And I guess 1ha1l. what I liked
about the play. I l wasn't absurd
because the th.ings on stage
couldn't happen; il was absurd
because they c.,n and do happen
