According to Malone, Parker was disrupting Redlands fans when he sat in the Redlands section and cheered for Whittier. "By sitting in (Redlands') section, it gets the (Whittier) side into the game," Parker said. After several complaints from spectators, Campus Safety Officers Joe Pirrelli and Mario Wibbens approached Parker and asked him to move to the Whittier side ofthe gym. Parker refused to move because, he said, "I was not violating SCIAC rules." According to Dave Jacobs, Director of Athletics, Parker was in direct violation of SCIAC rules. The SCIAC Ethics and Conduct Statement, which was put into effect in the fall of 1990 ensures that "conduct before, during and after competition of all those who represent the Eric Berg/Assistant Phcrtography Editor Campus Safety officers surround former Whittier College student Brent Parker who fell after being ejected from last Saturday's men's basketball game. participating institutions conducted in a manner that personifies the highest standard encourages enthusiastic support of behavior." within the confines of good In addition, according to sportsmanship and fosters a SCIAC rules, "Competition is positive attitude among spectators in support of their teams." In a Sept. 27, 1990 letter published in the QC, Jacobs and Joe Price, Faculty Athletic Committee Chair, asked fans to "curb negative, inappropriate language and any actions solely intended to put down opponents and their fans who are our guests." Larry Zucker, who attended the game said, "whatever the rules are or are not, he (Parker) was out of line." After three warnings, Pirrelli, Wibbens and Lt. Sommers, who was called in for assistance, physically escorted Parker from the bleachers. While being escorted out, "(Parker) resisted slightly, went limp and then slid to the floor," Sommers said. However, Parker said that he was bumped and then fell, when "all three officers began pulling at my legs. They were treating me as a criminal, and I was never resisting them." Following the game, several Whittier students gathered outside ofthe Campus Safety office to file official complaints stating that the officers had pushed Parker, causing him to fall. No complaint forms have been returned. Students Able to Appeal Campus Safety Tickets By Caitlin Duffy Managing Editor Student, faculty and staff can fight on-campus parking tickets and moving violations by attending Campus Safety "court" on Tuesdays at noon. Captain Malinda Hall hears appeals by ticket recipients and determines whether fines will be voided, reduced or paid-in- full. If a ticket is filled out incorrectly by em officer or if a parkingrestriction is not clearly marked, Hall will often disregard or reduce parking ticket fines. "I listen to students' sides of the story. I won't automatically side with the officer," Hall said. Moving violations, however, are"very rarely voided (and are issued) for safety reasons," Hall said. Campus Safety has issued 625 tickets, not including February tickets, since last April (when Chief Ed Malone started at the College). According to Hall, 'There isn't a parking problem (on campus), there is a parking management problem" which may cause a surplus of tickets. The B-Lot (near the Amphitheater) is "always empty," Hall said. "Some students who live on campus drive to class," Hall said. "If they would walk instead it would cut down on tickets and parking problems." According to Harold Hewitt, Vice President of Business and Finance, the revenue collected from all parking and moving violations is put into the College's general fund and is used for miscellaneous expenses. "There are no quotas (for the amount of tickets issued) so they aren't tied into a specific expense," Hewitt said. "We don't want to offer an incentive, directly or indirectly, for Campus Safety to issue a ticket by putting the money back into the Department," he said. "The. purpose of giving tickets is to enforce safety regulations, not to financially benefit Campus Safety," he added. Carrie Stuebing, senior, said that the ticket appeal process is fair. Afterreceivingtwo parking tickets in the same day, Stuebing decided to appeal one of them. "I parked (illegally) by a door because I had to carry something heavy for RA reasons," Stuebing said. After explaining this to Hall the ticket was voided. The appeal process is "a good way to be heard," Stuebing said. SPIKE LEE AT WHITTIER For complete coverage of Spike tee's visit to the lift;
