DPS gives tips for winter break
Survey shows students happy with changes
By Allison Vana
Staff Writer
The new Main Street Commons has been getting attention from colleges nationwide for its new layout, and with increased sales over last year and partial results of a customer survey showing satisfaction, it appears to be succeeding.
"The response (to Commons) has been very good," said Janet Hamilton, purchasing manager for dining services. "Customers have been supporting us well. We surveyed customers at least
twice this year — the second time being just last week."
Hamilton said the data for last week's survey has not yet been compiled.
Of the 600 customers who completed the first survey, 475 responded that Commons does meet their needs and 125 said that it does not.
"We've always taken surveys, but those that we took this year were shorter," said Francisco Pineda, assistant director of Commons.
"The surveys were the kind that customers could do immediately. Before, someone would stand with a questionnaire and ask the customer questions. Now they just had to answer three short question on paper, (Set Commons, page 11)
Parking security suggested for students, staff
By Tara Nakashima
Staff Writer
The holiday cheer brings happiness to many, thieves included.
While crime rates may be lower during this period, students and staff should still remain aware of potential problems, said DPS Deputy Chief Bob Taylor.
"Usually it's a very slow period but the problems include some car break-ins where the car is more or less abandoned or when people leave (their residences) and don't tell anyone they're leaving," he said.
However, there are preventive measures that can be implemented.
For those students and staff who are planning to leave their cars behind during the holidays, Taylor recommends the parking service offered by Transportation Services.
Transportation Services is offering a weekly rate of $19.50 for
parking, as compared to paying the $6 daily parking rate, which would total $42 a week.
"Basically, those students and staff who want to leave their vehicles over the vacation can do so as long as they have a parking permit," said Ed Sarpy, operations support manager for Transportation Services. "If they don't have a pass, they can pay a weekly rate."
Transportation services has been securing cars in the parking center for the past five or six years. Sarpy said vehicles in the parking center are protected by 24-hour staffing and alarms.
"The building is alarmed and the stairways and access ways are set up so that they're is no illegal entry into the building," Sarpy said. "You have to go through the front door and need security clearance to get into the parking lot."
Taylor agreed.
"(It's the) one place where they've never had a crime," he said.
Transportation services issues parking permits and sends the information to the Department of Public Safety so that the per-

Marriage offers hope to illegal aliens
Fraudulent weddings are growing, especially with passage of Prop. 187
Fraud at the Altar
-----------------1 of 2 in a series
By Susan Deemer
Staff Writer
Three days after meeting in a friend's living room, two complete strangers exchanged vows in a Los Angeles chapel.
Although the couple had just met, they were both anxious to get married — but not to tell their parents.
The preacher who married the couple
Commons a model for college eateries
commented on how beautiful the bride's dress looked and what a lovely couple they were.
"You two will have beautiful babies toother," said the preacher, drawing blushes m both bride and groom, who nad their first kiss at this ceremony and have no plans to go any further.
Marriage fraud is a growing "alternative" for illegal immigrants to stay in the country, especially with the recent passage of Proposition 187.
Americans taking part in this say they are not bothered by the legality, as long as the
price is right. The young American woman in this marriage is receiving $700 a month to compensate her for marrying the European alien.
"There are certain dreams I am pursuing and this (marriage) helps finance that," she said.
She is almost nonchalant about her situtation.
"The day after we got married, I said to myself, I'm going to meet the man of my dreams now, ha, ha, ha, just kidding," she said, "and I did, this amazing man who just (See Marriage, page 11)
