Teenage 'p~rsonal security'
A spate of recent news stories would have us believe
that any high school junior can now build an atomic
bomb in the basement in his or her spare time. This
simply is not true.
Our teenaged daughter, Malphasia, has made a
number of abortive attempts to do just that, hammering and welding away until all hours while Michael
Jackson blared forth on her phonograph.
The results to date have been three door stops, two
paperweights and (her closest miss yet) a 47-pound
cigarette lighter. Consequently, she is the only kid on
the block without an atomic bomb of her very own.

•

•

•

My wife, Glynda, and I went up to Millard Fillmore
High School to confer with Malphasia's teacher, Mark
Hawkins, on her lack of progress. You know how
teachers are.
"I fear Malphasia is doing barely passing work in
Elementary Nuclear Engineering," said Hawkins, leafing through her records. "Her mathematical skill quotient tested as adequate in her multiphasic so it's quite
obvious that the reason she is not realizing her human
potential is that she is not applying herself."
So we went home and told Malphasia to apply
herself. That was a big help.
Meanwhile, being the only kid on the block without
an atomic bomb has not only endangered Malphasia's
personal security, but has eroded her status, her selfconfidence and her social I ife.
All the other kids, of course, belong to the Millard
Fillmore Nuclear Club. They have picnics and dances
and hayrides. Naturally, the members are the "in"
group at school and control its politics and social life.
Being ineligible to join the club, poor Malphasia sits
home a lot, playing her Michael Jackson records to
herself. She says defiantly she doesn't care that she
doesn't have an atomic bomb. But just by looking at
her, I know how Pakistan feels .

•

Lately, there's been some talk at the Nuclear Club
meetings of the kids dismantling their bombs -- or at
least limiting the number each could have to ten or
twelve. But the younger generation is too smart for
that.
They say it's a matter of "personal security" and that
because they have bombs, no one will dare attack

I flew over to Vietnam on Halloween of '69 -- came home through
the Army hospital system and
spent my last year of duty in upstate New York as a mortuary officer. These were two years of my
life that took away my innocence
and fed me experience that taught
me all too well what the other side
of the coin is. So, as a result, I
decided in 1971 that the most important task for me is to "get my
head together." I said goodbye to
home again and came to Oregon -kn owing that there must be
something to the adage "go west,
young man, go west." I was young
but my experience was old .
.Now I am a psychological
counselor, a bartender, and still a
Vietnam veteran. It never goes
away. I never thought that horrid
war would ever be an experience
that I could integrate as a functioning part. Well, I am jumping in
again. I want to be part of a rap
group involving other vets. I want
to get my feet out of the muck and
get my mind out of the mire.
If you are interested in a rap
group (or curious), please leave in
the Veterans Office at LCC your
name and phone number, and
when I can cal I you.

I know I am not alone. Thanks
much.

them. And as none of them would ever, ever explode a
bomb unless attacked, the bombs thus insure the
peace of the neighborhood.
A few nervous Nellies have raised the point that one
bomb would be enough to blow up the entire city so
couldn't the kids at least limit themselves to a single
bomb apiece -- thereby at least diminishing the
chances of an accident? But the kids won't fall for that.
If one bomb is an effective deterrant for peace, a dozen
bombs are obviously a dozen times more effective.
Besides, how would you know kids who claimed to
have only eight or nine bombs didn't really have si~
teen or twenty hidden away? Why tempt them to
cheat?
So Glynda and I are thinking of taking away
Malphasia's phonograph until she makes at least one
bomb. She has to learn to do her part to keep peace in
the neighborhood. Sometimes, I think that kid's a born
troublemaker.

of The TORCH

With the college facing an "FTE
over-enrollment" of almost 1,000,
President Eldon Schafer told the
LCC Board of Education, "This
could be a hell of a budget problem."
A man not given to emotional
statements, Schafer's obvious
concern and pessimism added
weight to his announcement during the board meeting Jan. 9.
During that meeting, Jack
Carter, LCC's dean of students
revealed that Winter Term enrollment is about 11 or 12 percent
higher than last year. By Spring
Term, LCC's Full-time Equivalent
(FTE) could be as high as 9,300.
According to Schafer, the additional money to finance these
1,000 students has to come from
somewhere -- or the college might
be forced to limit enrollments to
the reimbursable FTE, a step LCC
has never taken before.
More students usually do not
create a problem • for Oregon's
community colleges. But because
of a complicated state reimbursement system, Schafer believes
that the increased FTE could mean
a financial crisis for LCC, as well
as the other 12 Oregon community
colleges.
According to the Oregon
legislature, the state reimburses
each community college at the
rate of about $1,000 per FTE. (Each
FTE is equal to 45 credit hours for
the school year. For example, if
one student enrolls in 15 hours
each term for three terms, that student is one FTE.) However, the
reimbursement is limited to a maximum number of FTE (called the
FTE "ceiling").
LCC's ceiling for the 1979-80
school year is 8,230 FTE -- 1,000
less than the expected enrollment
for the full year.
The additional students this
year are a result of many
"booming" programs, Schafer
said. These include federally-

funded CETA programs, the Us
Forest Service CWE program, and
the English as a Second Language
classes, to name just a few. Higher
unemployment also creates an influx of students which is felt
campus-wide, he added.
In a meeting with the other community college presidents last
week, one of the "critical issues,"
according to Schafer, was FTE
over-enrollment. Not one of the
two-year colleges has had a drop

Developing
alternative
educational
funding
"Community colleges were
designed to be open-door institutions," LCC President Eldon
Schafer explained in an interview
with The TORCH. "I will search
for every way possible to keep it
that way."
But Schafer is realistic enough
to consider the alternatives.
In the event the State Emergency Board doesn't okay additional
FTE reimbursement, Schafer has
other options -- none of which
he's too happy about discussing.
• Ask the county taxpayers to
pay a higher share of the costs.
• "Dramatically" increase tuition.

in enrollment this year, Schafer
reported.
All of the 13 Oregon community
colleges are trying to cope with the
unexpected increase, Schafer
reports. Salem 's Chemeketa Community College is up about 11.3
percent, while Umpqua Community College in Roseburg has the
highest increase of over 13 per-

cent.
As a group, the presidents will
ask the State Emergency Board
{which deals with policy matters
when the Oregon Legislature is not
in session) to appropriate more
reimbursement funds to the 13
community colleges. This step, according to Schafer, is the first
choice for dealing with the problem.
Assuming that the request from
the 13 presidents is approved by
• Increase contracted faculty
class loads.
• Cut the budgets for equipment repairs and replacements.
• Limit enrollments.

A Property Tax Increase

Voters within Lane County
could be asked to pay a larger
part of the college's $19 millionplus budget, but that could happen no earlier than the May 20
election, Schafer said. Currently
about 31 percent of LCC's funding comes from local property
taxes.
But, Schafer admits, voter reaction to any kind of "money issue"
is always hard to predict. If the
out-look for the area's economy
continues to darken, the chances
for approval of an increased
budget would be even dimmer.

Increased Student Tuition

Another option, according to
Schafer,
would
be
to
"dramatically increase" student
tuition. The current $142 per term
resident full-time tuition makes
up only about 19 percent of the
college 's total reven ue. However,
the State Board of Highe·r Education and passed on to the
Emergency Board, the soonest any
decision could be made would be
mid-March. "Going through the
state hierarchy is too slow of a process to satisfy me, " Schafer exclaimed , "but I don't think there's
much we can do about it."
Schafer realizes that the

Emergency Board's answer could
well be a flat "no." During the
presidents' meeting, Schafer said
the group tried to think of all the.
questions it would have to answer
before the State Emergency Board
would consider additional funding.
And, Schafer adds realistically,
"The board could very well say,
'But Schafer, we already gave you
(reimbursement for) 8,230. If you
can't deal with it, don't come crying to us.' "
Schafer added that this would be
an "extreme" alternative.

Staff cuts
class loads

and

larger .

Schafer was particularly sensitive in discussing any staffing
cuts or increased faculty class
loads. "There are many newer
programs handled by part-time
specialists -- business people
from the community with special
knowledge and skills," he explained. "But they would be the
first to be dropped."
Carefully avoiding specific
departments, Schafer added,
"We would have to prioritize
departments A, B and C. While
valuable, they might not be as important as X. Y and Z.
By cutting staff ahd limiting
enrollments in some programs,
some compromise might be
made, Schafer explained. "But
then we have to ask ourselves if
we're concentrating on quantity
instead of quality," he said.
"These · are al I difficult, unsavory kinds of decisions ,"
Schafer conceded.
But despite the looming budget
crunch , Schafer admits, "I f we
have to have a financial prob lem,
I'm glad it's too many students instead of not enough.
"It 's ironic," he notes. " At a time
when colleges nationwide are worried about retrenchment, we 're so
successful we don 't know if we
can handle the success."

Citizen apathy was only one of
many topics consumer rights advocate Ralph Nader attacked during a speech this week at the U of
0.
Nader's 70 minute speech to an
enthusiastic audience of 1,000 in
McArthur Court, was the
culminating event of the week-long
"Surviving the '80s" conference
held on the university campus.
Nader doesn't believe the nation
should rely on the "caricatures
running for president" to change
things. He believes that national
change "comes not from business,
government, or unions, but from ad
hoc consumer, citizen, environmental, civil rights, women's
groups and neighborhood groups."
He urged his audience to break
out of the "prolonged adolescent"
syndrome, and get involved working on real life problems. "There
isn't a problem in this country that
doesn't challenge a dozen
disciplines in the university," he
said.
Nader listed several advantages
he believes students have in being
able to effect change: An internal
communication system, their own
media (student newspapers and
broadcasting stations) and
resources such as libraries,
meeting rooms and laboratories.
Speaking directly to the
students in the crowd, Nader attacked standarized testing
systems, such as SATs.

successfully lobbied for 11 important pieces of legislation last year,
including a Truth in Testing bill.
That law, the first of its kind in the
nation, would give students access to testing information which
has always been kept secret.
Nader also attacked the
"corporate crime epidemic" he
believes is running rampant in the

communities in Michigan, '(If) you
want us to expand or open a new
plant, we want a tax abatement.' "
Next on his list of villians were the
utility companies. He called them

US. "We should pay as much attention to crime in the suites as we
have to crime in the streets."
Nader blasted the double standard he sees in the present legal
system, saying "It is a crime tor an
individual to relieve himself in the
river. Apparently, it's not a prosecutable crime when a corporation does the same. Individuals,"
he continued, "can at least claim
duress in some circumstances."
As long as he was on the subject, Nader also criticized "big
business" for not paying its fair
share of taxes and for requesting
tax abatements and exemptions.
"Little old GM, up against the
wall," he cried in mock sympathy.

on a SAT is "equivalent to a roll of

added. "They do not test judgement, experience, wisdom,

LCC and Linn-Benton Community College in Corvallis have figured
out a way to save some students
money. It's called a "reciprocal tuition agreement plan."
Jack Carter, LCC's dean of
students, •explains, "In effect, a
student from either district can attend programs in the other district
at in-district rates. "
Confused? It's rea lly quite simple.
"They have certain programs
that we don't have and visa versa, "
says Carter.

students were required to pay the

numbered. "General Electric, for
example, wants to get out," he
claimed. "They're losing money."
He believes solar power is the
best energy alternative available,
and scoffs at critics who call solar
energy "too diffuse."
"Uranium is underground," he
challenges. "That's not diffuse?
Solar's too diffuse? Tell that to the
7-year-old with the magnifying
glass over an ant."
After focusing on problems,
Nader talked about solutions. He
pointed out the the f irst of 23 student public interest groups,
OSPIRG, started here, and he called Eugene a "hub of citizen activity." He cited the number of consumer, food and housing co-ops,
but stressed that all consumeroriented organizations will only be
able to improve conditions if people are willing to become involved.
Nader encouraged the students
to sign anti-nuclear power and
anti-herbicide petitions in the lobby of McArthur Court. "(You)
should · be at the peak of your
motivation and the peak of your
idealism . . . You can get a good
education and make a civic contribution at the same time. Pick a
problem," he told them. "There are
so many problems, pick the problem of your choice."

students who wanted to participate in Linn-Benton programs

Now, under the new plan, LinnBenton students will pay only $143
per term to attend any of the 14
LCC programs included in the

Craig Virgin showed that he is
still out front in amateur athletic
competition by taking an easy first
place victory at the 1980 Men's US
Cross Country Trials. The trials
were held last Saturday, Jan. 19, at
LCC.
Although 47 of the nation's
finest runners gathered here to
compete in this nationally
prestigious AAU meet, only 35 of
the original starters completed the
12,000-meter event. The top nine
finishers qualified to go to the
World Championships March 9, in
Paris, France. The tenth-place

Illegal parkers handicap to disabled
by Donna Mitchell
of The TORCH

We've all been tempted. On a
rainy day, with class starting in
five minutes and the nearest parking place a quarter-mile dash
away, the conveniently located
empty space with the wheelchair
stencil is hard to ignore. Brandie
Clugston hopes her story will help
us pass it by.
"We (disabled students) are
assigned specific spots and we're
supposed to be able to pull right
in," says Clugston. "If we can't, we
try to find another spot. Four times
now I've had to go clear up on the
hill to park. By the time I'm down
the hill I'm so tired I might as well
go home. I have a disease related
to multiple sclerosis. I also have
leukemia and severe anemia. If I'm •
not careful and I overextend
myself, I can end up back in the
hospital."
Last week Clugston was involved in an incident which illustrates
her point.
"I was trying to come in under
the underpark to my parking
space, but there was someone
parked there already. Two spaces
up there was another free space.
This car came whipping around me
and pulled into it," she relates.
"As I drove by, I looked to see if
(the car) had a handicapped
sticker. It didn't, so I went up further to park and then came back to
ask the person getting out of his
car if he was handicapped. He said
'No', and I said, 'Do you know this
is for handicapped people?' He
said, 'So?' And then I got really
angry and I asked him, 'Would you
please oot park here anymore? We
have special permits and we have
to go through a lot to get these permits ... ' He retorted back, 'Well, it's
not hurting me any,' and walked
off. He's parked there several
times since."
Clugston believes the present
system of ticketing people who illegally park in spaces reserved for
disabled students should be more
punitive. At present, "It's not
enough to deter them," she claims.
An improperly parked registered
vehicle is issued a $3 citation; an
unregistered vehicle is charged $5.
After 10 school days with no
response to the citation, the
respective fines are increased by
one dollar.
Paul Chase, head of security,

acknowledges that illegal parking
can be a problem for disabled
students, particularly on a rainy
day or at the beginning of each
term. But the problem rs not as
severe this year as in the past, he

says, and improvement of the
graveled parking areas should
ease some of the parking pressure.
"We have an adequate number
of spaces on campus now to handle the vehicle traffic," reports
Chase. "The folks that park improperly would be the first to tell
you that there aren't enough
spaces. What they really mean to
say is that there are not enough
convenient spaces."

his/her car doesn't block traffic.
"We'll not issue a handicapped
person a citation for meeting the
need to get to class," he
reassures.
The trick, say several disabled
students, is finding a free spot on
the ramp to park.
According to the files in the
security office, of the 500 citations
issued last term for improper parking, only a few were issued for
repeated offenses in the disabled
parking areas. Chase warns that
"we do have a towing policy" for
vehicles that appear in the citation
process a large number of times.
"If towing a vehicle doesn't correct
it, we'll tow the vehicle every time
it appears on campus," he says.

~'l>-~ ~~'(,

(Y~

- ~

. .'(_~

However, Clugston notes that the
towing policy has never been implemented. She charges that the
ramp area is inadequately patrolled, and that many habitual offenders are never ticketed.
Another problem, says Sandy
Ing, head of the Student Health
Services, is the chain reaction
caused by a person who illegally
parks on the ramp area. "If space
four is taken, the owner of space
four parks in space five and we just
get a leap frog affect," she explains. "It ends up that someone
who needs space to work a chair
lift doesn't have it, and just has to
turn around and go home because
they're alone in that vehicle ... They
can't just hop out and tell us someone's in their parking space."
There are two classifications of
disabled parking, Ing notes. One is
"H" sticker parking, in the West
and South parking lots. These
spots are available to certified
disabled students on a "first come,
first served" basis, and are not individually assigned. Unauthorized
parking there may qause some
disabled student to be "stuck way
back out on the hill," says Ing,
"and they might as well throw in
going to class. By the time they
make it, they're exhausted."
The spaces where the problems
are occuring, says Ing, are the "R"
spaces on the ramp next to student services. "We can't expand
this space. It's surrounded by concrete and buildings," she states.
"R" spaces are individually assigned and only students with severe
disabilities get one. In general,
says Ing, these are people who, "if
they can't park here, can't come to
school -- people with lifts on their
vans to get their wheelchairs in
and out." Currently, Ing juggles 21
students among the 16 spaces
available in the ramp area.
Determining which students
most need ramp parking space is a
difficult task, says Ing. She recalls
one man who applied for space,
who was new to his wheelchair.
She didn't have space available on
the ramp, so she talked him into
parking in an "H" parking area.
"He dumped his wheelchair the
first day," she remembers.
"Where it gets really sticky,"
says Ing, is that some nondisabled students may resent seeing people who don't "look handicapped" being assigned ramp
parking. These people, she explains, may have a heart problem
or a disease like multiple sclerosis
or muscular dystrophy, which
creates a real fatigue factor. "They
don't look disabled -- but they will
if we make them walk from the far
parking lot," she stresses.

Weekend hoop action ends in split
by Dave Lemke
of The TORCH

LCC's men's basketball team
walked away with a 92-72 conference win Jan. 19 over Blue
Mountain Community College,
after a game marred by turnovers
and fouls.
Following a devastating loss to
Mt. Hood Community College the
night before, the men bounced
back for Saturday's game against
BMCC.
Despite the Titan three-point
lead over BMCC at the half, Coach
Dale Bates was less than impressed with the performance of his
squad. "The first half was just
atrocious," Bates said after the
game. The Titans allowed BMCC
13 foul shots in the last seven
minutes of the first half, with the
Timberwolves sinking 11 of the 13
attempts.
In the second half of the game,
the Titans looked like an entirely
different team. Executing a fast
break and erupting for 18 points to
the Timberwolves' four, Lane put
its forwards in the fast lane, utilizThe harvest they reaped
this year was rather grim.
Poverty and hunger and ignorance seem to be their
major commodity.
There must be something we can do to correct this

there is something. Something called the Peace Corps.

ing the open man and scoring with
down-court outlet passes.
Titan forwards Jerry Zarnekee
and Mike Hollingsworth led the
LCC defense, dominating the
boards and embarrassing the opponents with second-half play.
Greg Brouchet, fourth in the
league with a 60 percent field goal
average, came alive with some
sensational plays and a season
scoring high of 29 points.
In Friday's action, Mt. Hood
Community College (MHCC) took
advantage of the Titans' poorly executed defense and a total of 27
Lane fouls to steal an 83-80 conference game played on the Titan
home court.
The Lane men appeared to have
full control of the game, bu't with a
minute remaining, the MHCC
Saints out-scored the Titans 11-2,
taking an 81-72 lead.
The first half looked promising
for the Titans, with an impressive
performance by Mike Larsen, who
scored 12 of his 18 points before
half-time.
The second half saw a fired-up
Mt. Hood team take full advantage

of LCC's defensive lapses to rattle
off 14 points, for a 56-53 lead.
Lane spent the second half of
play giving the game a valiant try,
but the team could not pull
together enough to chalk up a victory.
Jerry Zarnekee led the Titans in
scoring with a game high of 22
points. Larsen added 18, and
Brouchet another 14.

Titan women martyr Saints
LCC's women's basketball team
boosted its conference standing to
3-2 with a Friday night victory over
the Saints of Mt. Hood Community
College.
Both teams had difficulty
establishing their offense early in
the game, and after five and a half
minutes of play the score stood at
4-4.

Titan Terry Stephens broke the
deadlock in spectacular style
when she captured a rebound, raced the length of the floor and stuffed the ball. It turned into a threepoint play when Mt. Hood's Andrea
Schwab fouled Stephens in an attempt to block the field goal. Two
more Lane players followed
Stephens' lead by contributing
consecutive baskets, then
Stephens scored again.
Eight minutes into the game, it
was suddenly LCC out in from 15-8.
Then Titan Tracy Powell began to
gain momentum. The 5'10" center

from South Eugene High School
scored 10 of the next 14 points.
Once started, LCC Coach Sue
Thompson's team couldn't be
stopped. At one point rattling off
13 unanswered points, they walked
away with the first half.
By half-time, the Titans had
taken a commanding lead. As the
buzzer sounded, Lori Drew hit with
a 15-footer and the scoreboard
read "Titans 38, Saints 18." .
Powell, who had scored 14 firsthalf points, was double-teamed
and even triple-teamed as play
resumed. The Saints held her to
only two points for the rest of the
game.
f,. revitalized MHCC team pulled
to within eight with five minutes
left in the game. But this was as
close as they could get as Titan
Pam Wadnizk stole the ball
underneath and scored with only
seconds to play. The final score
was LCC 60, Mt. Hood 50.
