Students involved in accidents at
LCC are not covered by college liability insurance unless they can
prove negligence.
•
Evan alford, chairman of the
LCC Staff association, raised the
question of coflege liability at last
week's College Cabinet meeting,
referriI_1g to an accident involving
a student on F'eb. 19. n.lford asked
the Administration to clarify and
publicize information on college
liability insurance coverage.
In interviews last week with several college administrators the
TORCH I earned that injured!
students are not covered by lia- f.
bility recovery under any circumstances, whether in or out oJ class, unless they can prove negligence
on the part of the college.
Eric Haws, fiSLCC attorney, agreed, stating,
"The students
aren't protected by the college
and if a student wanted a settlement he/ she would have to sue."
Since 1968, two suits have been
taken to court: One case was decided in favor of the student and
the other, originally filed in 1972,
is still undecided.
When asked about information on
amounts of previous suit settlements or limits of coverage, Fred
Greatwood of Tromp & McKinley
Insurance Company, LCC's insurance agent, stated that information
is confidential.
Dean of Instruction Gerald Rasmussen said he knew of no standardized policy to inform students
he lack of coverage, but Burt
of t_
Dotson of the President's office
said the college expects students
to be aware of the college's insurance procedures. · Both offices
said they would initiate information
procedures if '' a need is recognized.''
LCC students Paul Wozniak and
Kay Valduisen feel there is a
need. Both were injured this month
while operating equipment during
classes at LCC and both were
surprised to find out about the
lack of insurance coverage.
Wozniak injured his finger on
Feb. 6 while operating a meatcutting saw in the Food Services
area while on a Supervised Field
Experience job. Wozniak thought
the optional accident insurance
available during registration was
supplementary to coverage provided by the college. He did not
know the college had no liability
insurance to cover accidents involving students on campus.
Ms. Valdhuisen injured her hand
and side on Feb. 19whileoperating
a table-saw during an evening wood
working class. •Ms. Valduisen
stated, "I was not made aware of

Douda, LCC is currentlv about 800 students above
what th e ~tate "'.ill reimburse for over enrollment.
Compoundmg this problem is the fact that tuition
only pays about one fourth the cost of educating
a stud~nt. "Our projected over-expenditure .i n instruchon~,I are~ s amounts to approximately

$ oo,ooo, he s~id.
D_ouda ~xpla:ned tha_t LC~ went to the current
~pecial legislative sess10n with hooes of being re~~bursed at least $~64,000 for the over enrollment.
However, the legislature is talking about giving
us only about $215, 000, or' roughly two-thirds
of the to!al $300,000 we need,'' he said.
And m order to make up the remaining deficit
of $100,000! ~ouda said the college will try to
cut low pr10_ri_ty ex~e?ses , ,bef_ore limiting enrol~ment ?r raismg tmhon. It would be physically
i?1possible for the_ .Boa~d (LCC Board of Educahon) t~ eff~ct a tmt10n mcrease for Spring Term.
There Just isn't enough time," he said.
Douda listed expenses such as long-distance
trav~l for_ conferences and upkeep on certain athletic
playmg !ields . as the first to be cut. "Also, we'll
be lookmg hard at every requisition for a new
purchase to see if it's really necessary " he said.
''In addition we'll look at unnecessary ~lass sections--if one class doesn't load to an efficient
level, we will either cancel it or combine it with
another."
Douda views enrollment limitation as somewhat
self-defeating because revenue from tuition would
be lost.
Gerald Rasmussen, dean of instruction said
"If I had my way, I would maintain the op~n doo;
policy. Education is one of the best avenues a
person has for self-improvement and upward mobility. To restrict enrollment would be to deny
education.''
However, Rasmussen said the state pays about
50 per cent of the college's operating budget. "If
they (the state) set a limit on how many (in excess
of pre-term estimations) they will reimburse us
for, then we may have to restrict enrollment
"Reducing the number of part-time instructo~s
and limiting the number of sections for a parti~ular class would be one way to effect a reduction
m enrollment,'' Rasmussen said. He pointed out
that the LCC Nursing Program is no longer "open
door," but takes students on a first-come-firstserved basis.
Rassmussen said if he had a choice he would
favor raising tuition over limiting enrollr:ient.

The LCC faculty gave a strong endorsement
to the concept of collective bargaining by a nationally affiliated organization in it's campus-wide election last Wednesday. But the outcome of the election
is far from clear-cut, •since neither one of the
two national groups vying for the bargaining position won a majority of the 215 voting faculty
votes, and because there are 26 votes being challenged.
.
The result of the classified employees' election,
on the other hand, was a clear-cut decision. The
nonteaching employees chose overwhelmingly to ask
the American Federati-on of Teachers to represent
them in collective bargaining with the Board of
Education.
Of the 215 faculty votes cast, 87 were in favor
of the local chapter of the Oregon Education assoc i at ion/Nation a I Education association
(OEa/NEa), while 81 votes were placed for the LCC
chapter of the American Federation of Teachers
(aFT). Twenty-one votes were cast in favor of
no representation.
The college administration challenged the 26
faculty v~tes, saying that the votes were cast by

EJi tori al

Knowledge and good common sense are ofno value if not put to use.
ht an institutio n of higher learning such as LCC, students and
by
faculty are guilty of stifling the very essence of higher education
not utilizing their intellect toward common causes. These causes concern decisions about curriculu m, tuition, instructo rs and many other
areas that will have an affect on the bulk of the campus population. These
decisions are usually made by a select few and the end result reflects
the amount of imput provided by interested parties.
But hindsight experts, who loudly espouse phrases like, "I. knew
that wouldn't work" or "they can't get away with that'' do not serve
themselves or the campus in general.
It is the respons ibility of this newspaper to report on the events

These are our viewpoints.
But just as importan t are the viewpoints from all sectors of the
campus--students, faculty, adminis trators and classifie d staff. The
TORCH has in the past printed all Letters to the Editor and provided
a Forum column to those individua ls who need more space to develop
their viewpoints.
The TORCH is extending a special invitatio n to all students, faculty

Mr Nixo n want s to help ·- - Help !

by Art Hoppe
The White House said PresJdent Nixon is willing
to campaign for Republican congressional candidates this fall in states where the candidates
"feel his assistance will help" - - News ltepi..
Hello, this is The Presiden t's Special i:\.ssistant
for Fall Campaign Scheduling calling. Is Congressman Bagley Boodle in, please? What do. you mean
he's out to lunch? He's been out to lunch for ten
days now.
Listen, you tell the Congressman that if he doesn't
get on the line in 30 seconds, he can kiss that new
dam in his district good_-bye. As we say"around the
White House these days, ''When old friends don't
talk to us, we don't give a dam.'' Good. I'll wait.
Hello, Congressman. I hope you enjoyed your tenday lunch. I assume you know why I'm calling. The
President wants to know if he can be of any assistance to you in your bid for re-electi on this fall.
a campaign contribution? Well, he's not a rich
man, you know. But perhaps he could publicly present you with a check for, say, $50. Oh, in cash, eh?
Through a Mexican laundry? What would the President know about Mexican . . . Yes, I realize he's
an expert on internati onal monetary affairs.
But we were thinking more along the lines of
the President making a number of appearances at
your rallies. You know, putting his arm around your
shoulders, telling the crowd what a great help you'd
been to him. Saying a few words .about the. problem s
we face, like taxes . . . No, not his tax problem s,
the country' s.
But imagine it, Mr. Boodle, the head of our great
Government wants to do something for you, to testify
to your honesty, your integrity ... What? Certainl y

I rememb er those ringing words of his Inaugural
Address: "Don't ask what your Government can
do for you; just ask what you can do for yourself ."
Well, I'm sure the President will be pleased you
really took his words to heart. I think .
But frankly, Mr. Boodle, the problem is the President has to campaign for someone. How would it
look if he just sat thi~ one out? h.11 Presidents
always campaign for someone. No, we tried him.
Yes, him, too. You'd be surprise d what long lunches
they're taking on Capitol Hill these days. Oh, you
wouldn't?
Look here , Mr. Boodle, to be honest, you're
our last hope. After all, y'bu've won your past
ten campaigns with 98 per cent of the votes. What
harm could it possibly do. . . ? What do you mean,
"One year of Watergate is enough?' Is that a
crack, Boodle?
Sorry. Well, if you can't see your way clear ·
to accept the Presiden t's help, think of the good of
the party. Think of some other candidate the President
should publicly support. Your Democratic opponent?
I doubt if the President would go for that. You
know how the President would do anything for the
good of the party, but ..• No, I doubt if he'd do that
either. It's pretty late in the game to be switching
his registra fion.
What? You really will accept the President's
help in your fall campaign? .Golly, that's great!
Okay, what's your one qualification? President Ford!
Damn it, Boodle! If not your district, where can
. the President go?.Where?
And the same to you, Boodle!

Dental budget called inadeq uate

'l'he Paradental Department has
requested that the aSLCC Senate
adopt a $10,000 dental care program to provide full -time, oncampus treatment for , LCC students.
According to Dr. Ray Rickett,
associate professor of dentistry,
the Student Senate's current $2,800
contract (which provides only onehalf day each week for student
care) is nearing its expiration date
and is "very inadequate."
"Only a select few can see me,"
he said, "and I can take only one
third of the emergencies. If three
students come to me for treatment of severe dental problems,
I have to decide which of the three
is in the greatest pain. That results
in a lot of hurt feelings."
Dr. Rickett feels that the inequality of this procedure is the
department's biggest problem. "I
think everyone should be able to
get these services or no one should.:
That may not be the (college) Administration's position, but if everyone is financially supporting the
program, everyone should benefit from i'\t•''
"If the program is approved for
next fall,'' he continued, '' it could
accomodate one dozen patients in·
three and a half hours. The facilities are here . . . I would
Itke to see this program include
screening - a period of time specifically alloted to evaluating the

legitimacy of the student's request for treatment.''
When asked how long the proposed budget would maintain such
a program, Dr. Rickett said that
the cost of a full-time dentist's
labor (probably $15 per hour)would,
be the deciding factor. He also
said that the cost of labor would
definitely consume the greatest
part of the budget since the facilities are already adequate and
would not require much expansion.
He pointed out that after his
four years of employment at Lane
he has recognized an overwhelming

(CPS)--Two of the five Columbia
University students who were arrested in Decenber for allegedly
dealing drugs face possible life
imprisonment if convicted under
Gov. Nelson A. Rockefeller's new
narcotics law.
according to New York's narcotics law which went. into effect
Sept. 1, the two students charged
with dealing cocaine face sentences
from no less than 15 years to
life imprisonment and the other
students charged with dealing
marijauna face sentences of up to
15 years.

The cocaine arrests occurred

The paradental students are of~
fering to clean and x-ray a stujent's teeth for the combined price
of four dollars, although there is
now a two-menth waiting period.
"Nevertheless," Dr. Rickett said,
"a student can save about $15 for
x-rays if he has them taken here."

(Continued from page 2)

They say he still regards the United States as a friend, despite its
aid to Israel. He cut off the oil, partly to strengthen his voice in the
A.r:ab world, partly to remind the Americans not to take him for granted.
But quietly, he is using his new prestige in the Arab world to argue
for moderation. He is also trying to persuade other Arab oil pro•
ducers to hold down prices.
In the end, say those who know Faisal, he will still be in America's
corner.
Other powers are also lusting for Faisal's oil.
The outer office of Sheik Ahmed Zaki Yamani reveals, in a glimpse,
the world's changing power patterns. Yamani is Saudi Arabia's oil
minister. Saudi Arabia's sea of petroleum under its hot sands makes
Yamani one of the world's most powerful men.
, In his outer office, a gruff hmerican oil baron almost groveled
before Yamani's appointments secretary. h rich Lebanese businessman, whose aides scurried to make him comfortable, did the scurrying
when Yamani's deputy entered the room. Three Japanese, who had
just arrived from Tokyo, bowed lower than usual when they approached
the appointments secretary.
They all knew that Yamani has them over the oil barrel. He spoke
to me softly and thoughtfully about the world oil shortage. It was better
for Saudi Arabia, he said, to hold down production.
But to ease the crisis, he said, Saudi wells will soon be producing
nine million barrels a day. It will take a few years and millions of
dollars in development, he said, to reach the 20-million-barrel
output he has promised. Meanwhile, he believes_continued exploration will double Saudi Arabia's already vast oil reserves.
The money pouring into Riyadh could create other problems.
There is ominous talk in Saudi Arabia of using some of the nation's
oil billions to purchase nuclear weapons. Responsible Saudi leaders
told me they may have to acquire a nuclear arsenal for the Arab -world
to counter the Israeli nuclear threat.
They are convinced that the Israelis are building nuclear warheads.
AS the Saudis see - it, if peace should fail, another arab-Israeli war is
inevitable. Next time, the Saudis believe, the .n.rab armies will do
better. The Israelis, as a last resort, might use their nuclear weapons.
It is this possibility which has the hrabs worried. Today, the
Saudis have the money and their oil gives them the clout to arm the
Arab side with nuclear weapons.
No overtures have yet been made, according to my Saudi sources,
But the idea has been seriously discussed
to obtain nuclear arms.
in the .h.rab capitals.
The approach is more likely to be made to the French, or perhaps
the British, than to the Russians. The Saudis believe the French would
sell nuclear weaponry, if necessary, to keep their oil pipelines filled.
Clearly, another blow-up in the Middle East could be catastrophic.

BSU receives $1500 budget
Owing to the fact the hSLCC Supplemental Budget was reviewed
by the Board of Education Wednesday night, the Black Student Union
(BSU) will now be granted their full budget request.
According to BSU Acting Treasurer, George Handon, the BSU
was given only $300 of the $1500 that it requested of the Student
Seriate. Handon said the BSU was told by the Student Senate that
the union get the balance o f the $1500 after the Board reviewed the
Supplemental Budget. - The budget was passed by the Student Senate in
late November.
Presently, the BSU does not have an office. Their meetings are
held in the Ethnic Studies Lounge. Both the Chicano Student Union
(CSU) and the Native .n.merican Student Association (NASA) have
individual offices. However, according to Superintendent of College
Facilities, Bill Cox, these offices are only temporary. This summer
they will be remodeled and used as classrooms.
Jay Jones, Student ii.ctivities advisor, said that if it were left
up to him the CSU and N.n.SA would not have individual offices either.
He said, "If we can't provide office space for all 14 clubs, then we
should not provide it for any of them. They are used very little, and
most of the time they're just "dead space." His solution to the problem is to move the Student Awareness Center to Staff Lounge, and
use the present location of the Center as headquarters for all of the
clubs, each club using it during certain hours.
According to Handon, the BSU will be scheduling several Blackcasted movies next month such as, "Nigger Charlie,' "Mack," and
Troubleman.''
The BSU is open to anyone, but all elected officials must be

The arrests for marijuana dealing involved two separate deals,
one for four pounds and a second
for 15 ounces.
In a recent article in the Columbia Spectator, Columbia president William McGill warned students against thinking the campus
is a sanctuary for drugs. "Undercover agents do operate on campus
without my knowledge. There is no
prior consultation, notification or
warning of any kind when they make
arrests,'' McGill said.
a recent editorial in the Spectator said, "Until those almost incredible arrests brought the
reality of the new drug laws home
to campus, the law was seen by
most students as an irrelevant,
unthreatening paper decree . . .
Last year, politicians bent on high
offices played on public fears to
produce the 'toughest drug law in
the country.' Now for the first
time that toughness--or rather,
that brutality--is being felt on
Morningside Heights."

Porter favors nationalized g
What about oil as a public resource?
"If we have a limited, non-renewable, and
essential natural resource, then the decisions about
it should not be made in a corporate board room,' '
stated Eugene attorney and former congressman
Charles O. Porter. He added that oil distribution
should be "public-interest oriented rather than
profit-oriented as it is now."
Porter is one of the primary organizers of
the National Committee for Public Ownership
of Oil and Gas, which had its first meeting in
Washington D. c. last week. He cited the three
main elements to be utilized by the Committee
in its attempt to nationalize the oil industry as
1) Public indignation, 2) the free press, and 3)
the US judiciary system.
He said that the committee intends to inform
the public about the facts concerning oil companies
and the possible alternatives of ownership and
distribution. Porter explainetl the committee plans
to demand " equal time' ' under the Federal Communications Commission " Fairness Doctrine" to
broadcast its view of the " controversial" oil
issue. He stated several organizations have already produced television spot announcem~nts t_o
counter commercials produced by the maJor 011
companies.
According to Porter, the committee also plans
to file class-action suits against the large American
oil companies charging them with violation ofantitrust and interlocking directorate laws. He maintains that there is no real competition among the
larger oil companies and believes that often one
person serves on the corporate boards of two or
more different companies.
The committee hopes to nationalize the oil
companies by drafting legislation for the "orderly
fair-value acquisition of the oil .and gas company
shares of stock and all pertinent assets," Porter
said. He elaborated on this plan by saying tha~
the money needed to pay fair-value to the oil
companies could come from the purchase . of
government bonds, and added that _the compames
"would not be paid for the profits they would
have been able to obtain because they were monopolies." Porter stated th~t th~re ~ould be •:no
problem legally" with legislatmg 011 compa~ies
into public ownership "as long as they are given
fair-value and due process."
eThe committee plans to organize local chapters which would participate in a petitio~ drive
among concerned citizens and to urge their congressmen to nationalize the gas and oil industry,
Porter said.
He feels that it "isn't all a plot by the big
oil companies--they aren't that smart," but he
added that they allowed the shortage to come.
He said, '' The shortage would have come anyway
but it was hastened by the companies who neglected
the needs of america • by building refineries in

Student Senators should be permitted to attend
department meetings--so says the Students Rights
Commission (SRC). ~nd most LCC department
chairmen agree.
But the concept is apparently different from
department to department.
and, there is doubt if department Senators
actually represent their departments.
According to the minutes of the last Senate meeting, Peter Hale, stndent rights commissioner,
stated that "communications with the departments
on campus had revealed that department senators
are not attending their department meetings.' ' Hugh
Brerman, senator-at-large, stated that department
senators "who aren't .majors in those fields don't
really represent that department, and it seems appropriate to have a change."
Presently the aSLCC by-laws state that as department se~ators student s must be '' enrolled
in at least one class in the department that they
represent.''
Section 3 of. the ASL CC By-Laws states, under
the heading of qualifications and duties of officers,
that a senator must "keep an open line of communication between the students of his department and
the Senate," and he/ she "shall attend departmen~l
meetings upon approval of the Department Chair-

man.' '

Twin losses mar k end of season

By Steve Busby

Lane Community College's basketball team ended their season
on a sour note last weekend by
droppin g two decisions, Friday
night in a 73 to 67 loss to Clatsop CC and a Saturday defeat at
the hands of Clackamas CC by the
score of 69 to 68.
The losses give the Titans a
7-win 11-loss record for league
play. They are 12 and 16 overall.
These twin defeats eliminate Lane
from competition in the Oregon
Community College h.thletic hssociation post-season tournament.
Saturday night the Titans endeci a season of disappointment
by narrowly dropping a contest with
Clackamas 6~ to 68. Lane kept
the game close but could never
get over the hump. Said Coach Dale
Bates, "We played real well, but
we could never get on top.''
The Titans, trailing by 27 to
26 at the half, moved ahead by one
ea.r ly in the second period. The
lead was short-lived however as
the Courgars moved into the lead

and were never headed again.
Rob Smith and Mike Reinhart,
two freshmen who have been providing the Titans with offensive
spark throughout most of the season, again finished the game as·
the top Titan scorers. Smith poured
in 28 points while Reinhart added
18.
Clackamas used a balanced
scoring attack to win the game.
Three men scored in double fig-

ures, led by Craig Webster's 13
points. Every player for the Cougars scored.
The outcome of the game could
have been different if the Titans
had been able to convert on free
throw opportunities. Lane made
only 14 of 27 free throws during
the night, compared to Clackamas'
15 of 23. Lane normally shoots
72 per cent from the line, as a
team.

Murray Booth proved invincible ... again.
Booth won his 19th and 20th
straight victories of the season
enroute to a first place finish in
the Region 18 wrestling championships • Thursday and Friday at
Bend.
amid the cheers of a standing
crowd, Booth took only 38 seconds
to dispose of last year's Champion Ray King of Northern Idaho.
Booth will now travel to Worthington, Minnesota for the National
championships to be held February 28 to March 2, 1974.
Booth, who was named the outstanding wrestler of the meet,
was beyond description in his second match. "The crowd gave him
a standing ovation before the match
said coach Bob
even began,''
Creed. ·" I c·an't say how good he
is but no one went for even one
minute with him/' added a pleased Creed.
According to Creed, funds are
being sought for the trip. '' We
have enough to mak1;:; the trip but
we should put money back in the
fund," said Creed. The national
travel fund is used by all Lane
teams for travel to national contests. Creed added, any donations
would be appreciated. Donations
should be mailed to the National
Travel Fund, c/o Lyle Swetland,
and should be clearly ear-marked
for the fund.
'' I thought we looked reai"
good," said Creed. "W~ won four
of our first five matches the first
day against tough competition. In
the second round, our wrestlers
all drew the number one or two
seeds," he added.
Region 18 is one ·of the toughest
in the nation. Clackamas and

Murray Booth
Northern ldah'o, both members of
that region, are ranked second and
sixth in the nation, "although they
are much better, 11 according to
Creed. '' This meet really separates the men from the boys," he
added.
Given a 30 pound disadvantage
Steve Huffman wrestled in the
190 Ibo bracket and finished fifth.
Creed moved him up to the heavier
weight° bracket because he felt the
possibility of qualifying for the
national meet was much better
there. "Huffman is a real hardworking kid. He wrestles better
against big men,' ' Creed said of
Huffman, who usually wrestles in
the 158 pound class.
Booth will be leaving for Worthington today-he will be the first
Lane wrestler to compete in national competiton. Prior to 1973
it was against school policy for
Lane athletes to. compete in national competition.

Absences hurt \Nomen •in finale
by Dana Tims

A week which saw Lane's wo=
men's basketball team experience
both victory and defeat has allowed
the Titan women to conclude their
season with a 6-3 record in conference play.
After falling to the Oregon State
JV's 27 to 23 on Tuesday, Lane
bounced back to trounce Pacific
University, 45 to 34 in the opening round of the conference tournament on Thursday. Lane Coach
Debbie Daggett termed the win as
'' our best game all season.'' The
bubble of victory was soon punctured, however, as Lane met Willamette University of Salem in the
tourney's second round on Friday,
and came away slightly deflated,
following a 37 to 18 drubbing.

Booth leads grapp lers to
seven th in Regio nal meet

Lane's . final league game with
was nearly a lost cause from
the opening tip-off, as two starters and a key reserve were sidelined with illness and injuries.
Without the rebounding of Judy
Heidenrich, and the quickness of
Laurie Shoop, out with the flu,
Lane relied mainly on Debbie Eymann, who, according to Ms. Dag":'
gett, "did an outstanding job of
holding us together.'' Her efforts
weren't quite enough, however, as
Lane fell a scant four points shy
of a win.

am

Thursday's contest against Pacific saw · Lane utilize outstanding
accuracy from the field and the
free throw line, to coast to an
easy 11 point win. With Ms.Heindenrich and Nancy Mitchell leading
the way with 11, and 9 points, respectively, Lane proceeded to hit
18 of 21 foul shots, while converting on 57 per cent of its field
goal attempts.
Coach Daggett commented ironically that at the game's conclusion many fans, impressed with
Lane's hustle and ability, intimc'l.ted
that Lane was in a good position
to upset the tourney's number one
seed, Clark College, of Vancouver,
·B,C. The speculation proved idle,
however, as the Lane quintet met
a determined Willamette team on
Friday.
Costly turnovers and the lack
of experience prompted Ms. Daggett to label the contest "our
worst one yet." Willamette opened
the game by capitalizing on four
Lane turnovers, and quickly put
the game out of reach.
The girls did a remarkable job,' '
added Lane's philosophical coach,
"considering they had never played
together as a team before. We
didn't have any outstanding talent,
but a strong showing early in the

Nev, legislation may increase GI benefits

New legislation is now being voted ori by the
US House and the Senate to increase current veterans benefits. With House Bill 9085, and with Senate Bill 2784, the Senate has proposed a 23 per
cent increase in Vh. benefits and tlie House has
proposed a 13.6 per cent increase. If passed, these bills would -• Raise the monthly single veterans allowance
from $220 a month to $250.
• Provide for a "built in" cost of living ad•
justment.
• Extend the eight year educational benefit limitation to ten years. (Many veterans now enrolled
at LCC will lose their GI benefits in May.)
• Reduce the requirements for vocational rehabilitation from a 30 per cent disability to a IO
per cent disibility.
• Allow Reservists and National Guard members
to have their active duty count towards educational
benefits, if they have been called on active duty
for one year.
.
Provide up to six months VA educational assistance for refresher courses in fields where the

veteran is already qualified. (Current law now prohibits this.)
• Create a new provision that under certain
specified conditions an educational institution offering courses not leading to a standard degree may
measure such , courses on a quarter or semester
basis. However, a provision remains that such a
program shall not be considered full-.time when
less than "25 clock hours" per week of instruction
is required.
• Establish a loan fund for qualif.fed veterans
who wish to continue their education in institutions
where a high tuition would normally prohibit their
attendance.
• Insure the r~ght of a returning vet to regain
his old job with full pay increases, seniority, and
• status he would normally have reached, _as long as
his active duty did not extend over four years.
The revised GI bill as outlined above passed
the House on February 19. It now has to pass the
Senate· and be signed by the President to become
law. The target date to have the new bill signed
into law to avoid a lapse in benefits is March 2.
