Serial levy request
on March 29 ballot
by Chris Gann

TORCH Staff Writer

''There will be something
for everyone to vote on'' in the
March 29 county-wide special
election, says Betty Burgess of
the Lane County election office.
The ballot will feature
LCC's $4.6 million serial levy
request and candidates vying
for LCC board positions. Incumbent board members
James Pitney (Zone 2) and
Larry Perry (at-large) are the
lone entrants in each race.
Voters will also choose
members for the board of the
Lane Education Service
District (LESO), and, depending where the voter resides,
for school, water and fire
district boards.
Burgess says voters must
register by March 10 for their
names to appear in the poll
books, although the election
office will continue to process
registration forms up to the
date of the election. Those
registering by March 23 will

have their voter cards mailed
to them. After March 23
unregistered voters must go to
the elections office at 135 E.
6th Ave. in Eugene to register.
Mail-in voter registration
cards are available at the LCC
Student Resource Center,
located on the second floor of
the Center Building.
Anyone wishing to vote by
absentee ballot should complete the application process
by March 8, Burgess says.
Registrants may apply at the
office or make a written request. The written request
must contain the written
signature of the voter and the
address to which the absentee
ballot should be sent. Thursday, March 24 is the last day
the election office will mail out
absentee ballots to voters.
Voters may obtain stories

Women's Program future uncertain
by Jeff Keating

TORCH Editor

Action on the LCC
Women's Studies Program
issue is temporarily at a standstill and the future status of
part-time instructor Kate
Barry uncertain, according to
Barry and Dean of Instruction
Gerald Rasmussen.
On Oct. 13, Barry received
notice that her status as a contracted employee at 53 percent
of full time would end in
December. She was reduced in
status to a part-time, term-byterm instructor as a result of
cuts in the W_o men's,Studies
Program due to low enrollment.
At that time, Rasmussen
was exploring three alternatives that would allow LCC
to keep Barry in its employ:
• A joint appointment with
the University of Oregon,

Kate Barry

ideally with the Women's
Studies Program;
• A cross-campus assignment at LCC, possibly with
the Cooperative Work Experience (CWE) department;
• Possible integration into
the Women's Program which

would allow her to teach some
classes and spend the rest of
the time working for the program.
Barry now has a contract
for spring term that will allow
her to teach three classes, so
her fears -- and those of concerned faculty and students -have been put to rest.
But her status for 1983-84
remains in question. And only
one alternative of the original
three -- integration into the
Women's Studies Program in
a partially non-instructional
role -- remains as viable. A
decision on the practicality
and feasibility of that option
has yet to be made.
Several factors contributed
to the reduction in Barry's options:
• U of 0: "They're trying to
strengthen the position of their
own instructor there,'' Barry

says_- She adds that a future
"deal" might be made with
the UO program, but for the
time being, it's not possible.
Rasmussen also adds that
the U of O might be·reticent
about hiring another instructor for a program still trying to
get on its feet with limited
resources.
• CWE: "It seemed to be a
real valid way to go,'' says
Barry of the option which
would have resulted in her
working through CWE parttime. But although she says
CWE Coordinator Bob Whey
was "supportive of the idea,"
there was no financial provision in the CWE budget for a
position like the one proposed.
Which leaves Barry and
Women's Program Director
Bev Behrman working out the
logistics of a position with that
department. Barry and
Rasmussen both agree that

whatever decision is made, the
Women's Studies classes are
an important and vital part of
LCC's curriculum.
"Naturally, the program
would be better served if a
solution were found,''
Rasmussen says. "The main
objective, as always, is to have
sound programs.''
Barry concurs, adding
"Women's studies have, for a
long time, been considered a
'fad.' People thought they
were just going to go away.
''But institutions are beginning to reflect women's changing roles in society and will
continue to reflect these
changes,'' she says. ''With the
new infusion of funds into the
U of O program and a strong
program here, Eugene has real
potential as a center for

EEFORA LL
LBCC board a 'victim of pressure'
by Jeff Keating

TORCH Editor

Recent events at
Linn-Benton Community College,
academic
our
neighbors to the
northwest, have
raised many questions concerning
the authority and
judgement of those
who, in the long run, decide what we
are taught.
The LBCC Board of Education
voted 4-1 Feb. 15 to reject a $5,056
grant from the Oregon Committee for
the Humanities. The grant would have
allowed LBCC 's Social Science
Department to host a week-long (April
25-29) conference series on the Soviet
Union entitled "What About The Russians?" Discussions on Russian life
would be held on the LBCC and
Oregon State University campuses as
well as around the community.
On Feb. 15 LBCC board member
Herb Hammond, who initiated the
''non-acceptance'' motion, cited the
following as reasons for rejecting the
gtilnt: • "Insufficient lead time (for the
board) and lack of information (about
the program);
• "I( 'draining' of resources during a
time of retrenchments .. .in both programs and personnel;
• ''A politically controversial program ... not appropriate to community
college sponsorship and particularly
LBCC'' and
• A lack of "consistency with LBCC
philosophy and policy.''
An issue of public concern

The board's decision has prompted

outcry from students and faculty at
LBCC.
Doug Clark, chairman of LBCC's
Social Science Department and the
LBCC faculty's loudest voice in favor
of the Russian series, said at the Feb.
15 meeting that the school needs to be
more balanced in dealing with
"controversial" issues.
LBCC Faculty Association President
Jim Lucas also came out in favor of the
program and questioned the board's
action. Lucas said the decision involves
"the academic freedom of the LBCC
staff and the credibility of LBCC programs in the eyes of schools who take
transfer students from LBCC.''
(LBCC Commuter, Feb. 16 issue.)
A petition -- initiated by LBCC' s
student government and circulated
among LBCC students -- calls for the
board to reverse its decision and accept
the grant. The petition's motion has
received overwhelming support from
the student body.
And the overwhelming feeling about
the entire matter is that the "no" decision was made for political reasons.
The facts, please

Linn-Benton Community College,
like LCC, is asking its voters for
money in the form of a March 29 levy
election.
The election, coupled with pressure
-- letters, rumor has it -- from isolated
segments of the surrounding communities (Linn and Benton counties)
"forced" the board to bow to the
demands of an uninformed and biased
few who were concerned about the
"danger" of informing students about
Russian life.
What an incredibly narrow and
twisted way of looking at education.
These "concerned parties" took their

own prejudices and prejudgements
about Russia and Russians and exerted
enough influence over an educational
body to assure that "the enemy's" way
of life will never be explored, at least
not at LBCC.
Granted, the week-long session was
scheduled to be sandwiched between
two weekends of seminars on nuclear
disarmament, but so what? To blindly
assume that the entire nine days were
put together as a "Commie plot"
designed to persuade students to join
the KGB, or something, is wrong.
But what is more disturbing is the
LBCC board's acquiescence to such
foolishness. Yes, the school is asking
its area's voters for money at the end
of March, making their concern for the
public's opinion legitimate. But their
decision, put bluntly, is wrong.
To each of the points the board raised:
• Doug Clark presented the board
with a copy of the grant application for
the Russian program. The application
thoroughly explained how the grant
would completely fund the program
and its schedule of events.
How much ''lead time'' does the
board need to make a decision about a
program that has received an assertive
"thumbs-up" from faculty and
students alike and will be funded by the
state?
• There would be no draining of
resources in the form of instructional
personnel, Clark says. Any classroom
space needed for the program would be
in rooms not already scheduled for
classes. All instructor time needed
would be volunteer time.
• If a "politically controversial"
topic can't be raised at a community
college, where can it be raised?
The LBCC Board said the program,
would be more appropriate at OSU.

Why? What makes OSU the home for
"controversy" that LBCC is not?
Community colleges are places where
members of the community can obtain
an education in a somewhat different
setting than the traditional university
or major college. Why does this mean
that community colleges can't deal
with what universities consider to be
the "important issues" too?
• Carol Moore, the lone LBCC board
member who voted against the "no"
resolution, explained the school's
policy with regard to controversial
issues at the Feb. 15 meeting. According to Moore, LBCC's policy in no
way states that the school cannot host
discussions or programs that might
cause ''controversy.''
Politics instead of education

The inescapable conclusion one must
reach from all of this debate is that
LBCC's board is another victim of
reactionary pressure.
And its fear of losing conservative
votes at the polls may in the long run
lose moderate and liberal votes instead.
As Jim Lucas put it at the Feb. 15
meeting, "If you are worried that a
decision to fund it (the program) will
cost you votes," he said, "I daresay
your decision not to fund it will cost
you more votes."

Students have first amendment rights
by Mike Sims

TORCH Associate Editor

Syndicated columnist James
J. Kilpatrick recently tackled
the question of freedom of the
press and First Amendment
rights as they relate to college
publications. And in doing so,
he generalized and moralized
in a fashion which was condescending at best.
Kilpatrick cited a recent case
at an Eastern private university in which the editor of the
student newspaper extensively
(and fairly) covered a story
which caused the school's
president considerable discomfort.
It was a classical case: The
president ordered the coverage
to cease, the editor refused
and was fired. Protests were
raised and the matter was
taken to court where the editor
was reinstated. The institution
was also ordered to stop in-

terfering with the editor's
"exercise of free press rights
guaranteed by the Constitution."
Kilpatrick contended that
the university's president
clearly had the power to
remove the woman as editor.
Now up to this point regarding this particular case, I am
in agreement with Kilpatrick.
Though I oppose in principle
the suppression of information for economic or egocentric reasons, I realize that
private
in
sometimes
businesses (including private
schools) information is suppressed for those reasons. I
must admit that this is part of
the price we pay for living
under a system of free speech
and enterprise -- I'll choose
that sort of system over one of
government over-regulation
any ole day.
However, Kilpatrick seems
to be guilty of sweeping

generalizations. The university
in question is a private school.
While it is unfortunate that it
saw fit to suppress what
Kilpatrick called "by any objective yardstick. . .a pretty
fair story for a student
paper,'' the school was acting
within its rights as owner and
publisher of the student paper
to play editorial gatekeeper.
But were the same matter to
arise at a taxpayer-supported
institution -- well, that's
another breed of cat
altogether.
We at the TORCH are fortunate to have had for nearly
13 years an administration and
a Board of Education that
have lived up to the principles
of Media Commission
guidelines which say that the
student editor is responsible
for the content of the paper.
The editor cannot be removed
from office without due pro-

cess and without proof of
gross negligence. And the
TORCH cannot be censored.
Many student publications
(at public and private schools)
could not have enjoyed the
leeway we were given, for example, in covering the recent
Health Building fumes controversy or the ROTC issue.
Dozens of court cases have
reinforced the principle that
once a public institution
awards press freedom to a student publication (as is the case
at LCC) it cannot capriciously
take it back.
The "real" journalistic
world that Kilpatrick seems to
be depicting as a publisher's
totalitarian regime is, in truth,
free for the most part from arbitrary censorship and
discipline for editors who
choose to print what they see
as the truth.
And that is supposed to
make us"free".

Parents 'Norn don't marry for love
by Arthur Hoppe

for Chronicle Features Syndicate

Our son, Mordred, has
always been a burden to us. So
I wasn't surprised when he
came home the other evening
with an attractive young lady,
named Philomel and announced they wanted to get married.
"That's wonderful, Mordred," I said. "Why?"
They looked at each other
with adoration. "Because
we're madly, passionately in
love, Dad,'' said Mordred
proudly. ''That's why.''
"Good grief, Mordred," I
said. "That's a perfect reason
not to get married. Nothing
clouds the brain like mad, passionate love and here you are
deciding whom to spend the
rest of your years with when
you can't think straight.''
"Our consuming love will
conquer all," said Philomel
with the positiveness of youth.
"For about three weeks," I
agreed. "Then by its very
nature, it will burn itself out,
leaving you to begin life
together on a pile of a~hes.
With a handicap like that,
you'll never be able to tolerate
him flossing his teeth in the
living room."
"He flosses in the living

room?" she asked, her eyes
·widening.
"I don't know," I said.
"But the point is that you
must be able to tolerate it -just as Mordred must be willing to pop your back after a
hard day at the office.''
"My back doesn't need
popping," she said with a
touch of defiance.
"Not yet," I said. "And Mordred doesn't need glasses
yet, either. But when he does,
will you rummage about three
or four times a day trying to
figure out where he left
them?"
"Can't he find his own
glasses?'' demanded Philomel.
"Certainly," I said. "But
then why get married?"
I suspected they didn't
know what I was talking
about. I was right. "Look,
Dad," said Mordred. "We're
going to promise to love,
honor and cherish each
other.''
"That's nice," I said. "Will
you also promise to walk her
dog in the rain when she's had
her hair done, surprise her by
tying up the newspapers for
recycling even though its her
turn and mince garlic with
honey when she has a sore
throat?''
"You think that's what

marriage is all about?'' said
Mordred.
"No, it's m_ore like locking
the clasp on her bracelet for
her every time you go out,'' I
said. ''She could do it with one
hand, but you can do it more
easily with two. That's why
you also willingly volunteer to
hook her skirt in back and pull
off her rainboots."
"I'm going to be her husband, not her batman,'' said
Mordred, his machismo showing.
"What's the difference?" I
said. "Moreover, it isn't simply what you do for her but how
you do it. For example, Mordred, ,are you sure you could
explain
'antidisestablishmentarianism'
without sounding pedantic?''
"Well... "
''Or could you,'' I persisted
relentlessly, "return the sour
milk she purchased to the
supermarket with no proof
that it was sour when she
bought it and not mention
your generous gesture at dinner?''
"Couldn't I just bring her
breakfast in bed?" said Mordred sulkily.
"Breakfast in bed is highly
overrated," I told him. "Far •

Gratitude to
women's studies
To the Editor:

Just as The Quotable
Woman provides for me
voices in my likeness to
validate my feelings, ideas,
fears, and hopes, so can
women's studies validate the
lives of every woman in
history regardless of her race,
age, culture, religious • faith,
and ethnic background. Until
women are celebrated as individuals in their own right. .
.women's studies must be an
integral part of every school at
every level.
If women are to control
their bodies and lives they
must be told the truth to gain
the personal power necessary
to do so. If women are to
change society, they must do it
in thier own image and not
that of the male's image. .
.Because our ideas are not included sufficiently in the
printed word, women's studies
must continue to provide us
with scholarship, support and
inspriation so we can claim
our rightful image.
In 1917, Ruth Benedict, an
anthropologist, biographer,
and poet wrote, "I long to
speak out the intense inspriation that comes to me from the
lives of strong women,'' and
recently, while having dinner
with my friend Kay Sweetland
Bower, producer of a fine
slide/tape presentation about
Abigail Scott Duniway, a

leading proponent for
women's suffrage in the Northwest, she told me after
showing her slide show to a
group of high schol students,
she noticed the girls walked
differently. "Yes," I agreed,
"I know. They walk taller
because they are proud of their
images."

To The Editor:

We wish to bring to your attention the needs of a young
Arab woman, Jamila Ali Murshid. My husband and I have
been sponsoring her here in
the US for the past four years.
While teaching in North
Yemen, we met Jamila and
found her to be a bright young
person, worthy of assistance.
Upon our return to the US, we
brought Jamila with us to attend public schools here. She

From the look on Mordred's face, I decided to stop
right there. If I went into the
infinite marital hardships of
child-raising, he would never
become a father. And I very
much want to be a grandfather
-- primarily, of course, so that
he will discover what I went
through.
It was clever Philomel,
though, who at last caught a
glimmer of my deep
philosophical message.
"Okay," she said with a sigh,

removing her hand from Mordred's, "we'll both floss in the
living room.''
When my dear wife, Glynda, returned from her
mother's, I recounted the
whole sad conversation.
"Don't worry," she said
with her indomitabie wisdom,
"I'm sure that it will work out
all right.''
"Maybe," I said, "but I
seriously doubt a marriage can
long endure that is based solely on flossing together in the
living room.''
''You forget, dear'' she
said, squeezing my hand, ''we
didn't even have that."

BOSTON -- Former secretary of state Alexander Haig
says that "predators" in the Reagan Administration pushed him out of office.
Haig is quoted by the Boston Globe as saying that his
failure to negotiate an end to the Falkland Islands war and
tensions about the Middle East led to his resignation.
Haig also said that he had problems in the administration because he wasn't afraid to challenge the president on
foreign policy matters.

Disabled people perform, inform
on new pub_/ ic access t. v. show •
by Chris Gann
TORCH Staff Writer

A new show on public access television offers a place
for disabled people to season
their performing talents and
furnish information to
enhance independent living.
LCC counselor Bjo Ashwill
says that her program, The
Can Do Show, is "by, for and
about
persons
with
disabilities." The show airs
every other Tuesday at 8 p.m.
on Public Access Channel 11.
Ashwill says that the show's
purpose is twofold: To entertain and to inform. Ashwill
performs comedy skits and
puppet shows that acquaint
viewers with various aspects of

disability. Other community
members -- some physically
disabled, others ''temporarily
able-bodied," says Ash will -have also performed on the
show.
Each week one segment of
the production features an interview with .rn agency
representative who assists
disabled people in independent
living. The interview addresses
problems disabled people
might have -- supporting
themselves financially, finding
architecturally accessible
buildings in which to shop,
etc.
Ashwill hopes that the show
will be an "attitude buster"
for able-bodied people who
may be afraid of, or feel sorry

for, disabled people. "We
want to be treated as regular
folk. . .(who are) successful
and fun to be around,'' she
says.
Ashwill comments that
disabled people may now be in
a position to help recently
displaced workers cope with
the frustrations and fears of
unemployment. ''Displaced
workers are (now) having the
same problems the physically
disabled have always encountered," says Ashwill.
''We can help them, give them
pointers," she says.
Ashwill encourages all LCC
students to bring their performing talents or ideas to the
show. The next broadcast of
The Can Do Show is March 8.

FACES on FILE

Linda Danielson

Danielson, an instructor in the Language Arts department, has been
with LCC since 1973, teaching Northwest literature, composition, and
folklore (which she describes as "unofficial parts of culture and tradition transmitted by word of mouth and example from one person to
another").
Folklore is also Danielson's main hobby and takes up most of her
spare time. She is one of four members of Apples in Winter, a.local
Irish music group for which she plays the fiddle. Danielson also does
some freelance field work in folklore, including music collection and
interviews with old time fiddlers.
Last summer Danielson did some work with traditional music in
theatre. Under the sponsorship of the Oregon Commission for the
Hunanities, Danielson and Jane Van Boskirk performed a play based
on the book Hillbilly Women. Van Boskirk played 10 different
characters and Danielson narrated and performed folk music.
Danielson has previously been part of an all-woman bluegrass band
and currently holds the position of District Officer in the Oregon Old
Time Fiddlers Association.

• Review constantly. "Five or ten minutes each day spent
going over previously learned material can make the
knowledge more 'natural' and give you a big advantage come
testing time,'' says Duchesneau.
• Study in groups. "It's important to learn how other people think," Duchesneau asserts. She further suggests that this
method ''brings out material which the individual student
may have forgotten, and makes for a more solid interview.''
• Relax. "The best way I know of to be at ease on test day is
to have tested as much as possible," says Duchesneau. "You
can test yourself or, preferably, test in a group using the
testing modes which your teacher is most likely to employ,
such as multiple choice, fill-ins, true/false or whatever."
Duchesneau also advises that students be as physically at
ease as possible on the day of the test.
Another person with answers is Dan Hodges of the LCC
Assessment and Testing Service. Hodges' main duty is the
testing and grading of current and prospective LCC students,
but he is also genuinely concerned with helping students who
may not be doing as well as they could on tests.
Hodges also has a list of study tips -- 15 in all -- which can
be found on the wall outside the Testing Office on the second
floor of the Center Building.
"I'd really like to see students who are having trouble come
by and take advantage of the material we have,'' Hodges
says. He goes on to warn that "knowing how to take a test
can mean the difference between an 'A' and a 'B' or possibly
a 'D' and an 'F', depending on the student."
Duchesneau and Hodges agree that the key word is
"preparation." They say that it's much easier to relax and be
in the proper frame of mind if one really knows the material.

And if the program was
completely eliminated? "Well,
I guess I'd have to find

another job," Barry says.
"But there is such a necessity
for this kind of program on
campus that I don't think it
will happen. What we need,''
she concludes, ''is somebody
in authority to make a decision. Nobody has said 'yes,
this is what we will do.' It's
not going to happen magically.''
Rasmussen is optimistic that
a decision will be reached
soon. "Although we can't be
assured of anything definite at
this point," he says, "I would
be willing to predict that we'll
find a solution.''

Driving class emphasizes no alcohol
by Amy Steffenson
for the TORCH

With concern over drunk
driving rapidly growing, some
driver's education courses are
putting greater emphasis on
the subject. LCC's Driver
Education course is no exception.
For $106 a term, LCC's
Adult Education Department
offers driver training to people
who want both textbook and
practical instruction in the
operation of automobiles -- instruction that will prepare
them for state licensing exams.
About 25 students are currently enrolled.
Part-time instructor Bill
Schoonhoven holds a two-

hour lecture class four times
during the term. In addition to
the classroom sessions, he
spends one hour per student
per week in behind-the-wheel
training until he/she has accumulated six hours of driving
time. Students use the col1e g e's leased Chevrolet
Camaro Z-28 to learn driving
techniques in various traffic
situations -- residental areas,
country roads, freeways, and
parking lots. Students who
prefer to learn on a manual
(stick) shift automobile drive
with Jim Scott, another LCC
driving instructor.

Schoonhoven' s lecture
topics include driving laws and
problems. And recently, according to Schoonhoven, a big

emphasis is being placed on
alcohol and driving.
''Driving is not a right -- it is
a privilege that must be earned,'' says Schoonhoven. Each
term he invites a guest speaker
from Mothers Against Drunk
Drivers (MADD) to give a
presentation on the issue of
drunk driving. He also tries to
assign reading and research
on this topic.
Schoonhoven states that the
primary goal of the time spent
on drunk driving is to convince future drivers they
should never drive an
automobile after consuming
alcohol.
Schoonhoven feels the biggest problem he faces in this
segment of the course is the at-

titude of new drivers.
"Because I myself do not
drink, they don't feel that I
know what I'm talking
about," he says. To counter
this objection he points to
statistics provided by Barbara
Stoeffler of MADD:
• Nation-wide there are
24,500 to 27,000 alcoholrelated traffic fatalities yearly,
and 700,000 serious injuries.
Fifty-five percent of all traffic
accidents involve alcohol.
• In Oregon, in 1982, there
were 519 traffic fatalities, 56
percent of these were alcoholrelated.
• In 1982 Oregon's traffic
fatality rate decreased 19.53
percent from 1981. She says
the decrease was not due to

fewer automobiles on the
road, since gas sales were only
down two percent in 1982.
Rather, she thinks possible
reasons for the decrease might
be the public's improved
understanding of the drunkdriving problem, and of the increased public and police attention to drunk driving.
Driver Education is offered
every term at LCC. Upon successful completion of the
course, students receive a certificate of completion, for
which Schoonhoven says
many insurance companies off er premium discounts.
Students must still pass state
driver tests to earn a license.

Department at LCC.

"One hundred and twenty

yells a jubilant LCC student to
his friend standing by.
Comments like this are frequently heard in the foyer of
the Health and Physical
Education Building, where
students challenge their skills
against Donkey Kong, Joust,
Defender and Ms. Pac-Man.
A former LCC wrestling
coach first suggested installation of the video games as a
source of revenue for his team,
according to Dean of Students
Jack Carter. But a committee
appointed by Carter thought it
would be more appropriate to
expand this revenue to the entire Athletic and the Performing Arts departments to help
defray student travel expenses.
After Carter's office gave
final approval to installation,
LCC contracted with Amusement Unlimited, which submitted the best bid for the
video games. In the summer of
1981 the games were installed.
Today the video games are
still helping provide travel

''The video games have
enabled Performing Arts
students to give performances
at places where they once
couldn't afford to go,'' Carter
said. "The video games don't
completely pay for all the
travel expenses, but they help
out a lot.
"We have a contract where
we are guaranteed $10,000 a
year from video games,'' he
continues. "We wanted a set
amount of money guaranteed
to us instead of taking a
percentage of the money produced by the games. A
guaranteed amount is more
reliable than a percentage
take.''
Originally, the machines
were installed on a trial basis.
Carter was concerned with
such problems as students and
other people "hanging out,"
and potential problems that
could be caused by a crowded
atmosphere. But Cc>.rter says,
''We've had no problems at
all ... No machines have been
vandalized, and we've had no
(discipline) problems."
Carter attributes the

absence of problems to close
supervision of the machines by
personnel in the Intramurals
office, located in the gym
foyer.
Selecting a place to put the
video games was not easy,
Carter confesses.
"We looked into several
places, including the cafeteria.

But we were looking for an
area that had a lot of space
and wouldn't create a traffic
problem. The PE Building
seemed like the best spot to
put (the games)."
Income from the video
games ,is completely separated
from vending machine income. The ASLCC collects 90

percent of the money
generated by cigarette, candy,
pop and coffee machines. This
share is used to pay for
ASLCC-sponsored, oncampus entertainment and to
support student clubs and
other ASLCC activities. The
remaining 10 percent goes to
the College Aid Fund.

Lone travel offers women new opportunities
by Chris Gann

TORCH Staff Writer

Two local women who have traveled
in Europe and China assert that unlike
members of a group tour, women
traveling abroad alone have more opportunities to meet people and learn
about local culture.
LCC Word Processing Center
Manager Susan Watkins and travel
consultant Suzanne Pepin told an audience at the Feb. 9 "Brown Bag" talk
that they find the advantages to traveling alone outweigh the disadvantages.
Pepin specializes in individual travel
in Europe. Watkins traveled and
studied in China last summer.

Entrance tough for foreign students
by Marisela Graham
for the TORCH

"I got very sick the first
time I ate a hamburger,''
recalls Myung Sun Hyun, a
student from Korea who has
come to LCC to study computer science.
Myung is one of the 121 international students attending
LCC this year. These foreign
students pay large sums of
money to attend classes, experience American culture,
and struggle through adjustments in everything from
communication to diet.
The majority of LCC's international students come

Transfer policy

changing at UO
by David Riggs
for the TORCH

Several LCC students who
plan to transfer to the University of Oregon believe they
may have to alter plans for
their academic futures.
These students and others
attended LCC Counseling
Department-sponsored advising sessions for potential UO
transfer students last month.
At the sessions, academic advisor Charlene Blinn briefly
outlined the university's current baccalaureate degree requirements, which are effective until fall term of 1985.
Several students learned
that, under the new requirements, some of the LCC
classes they are now taking
will not fulfill UO "cluster"
requirements after the fall of
1985. This also applies to
students transferring with less
than 30 hours before that
time.
For example, one student
found that the speech classes
which she completed at LCC
will not apply toward the new
U of O Arts and Letters
''clusters.'' And a business
major believes he will now
have to take three additional
math and science courses.
Kathy Stern, whose plans
include a BA in music and
eventually a master's degree in
education, says she may have
to stay at LCC an extra year in
order to complete all her
prerequisites for transfer to
the university. '' I love going to
Lane," she says, "but I've got
to finish my education someday."
Those unsure of their
transfer status should contact
the Counseling Department
soon, according to Blinn. '' I
think there are still some people attending LCC who need
to review the new UO requirements," she says.
Blinn says she may set aside
one hour each week for group
advising. But she •urges any
students who are unsure of
their standing to drop by the
Counseling Department on the
second floor of the Center
Building.

from the Middle East, Japan,
Hong Kong and Taiwan. Each
international student pays a
nonresident tuition of $781 per
term. The total cost of education and living expenses per
student range from $2,500 to
$2,800 each term, or $7,500 to
$8,500 per year.
The "international student"
classification does not include
foreign students who possess a
Resident Alien Card, which
enables them to reside permanently and work in the US.
These students pay regualar
tuition.
Each year the number of international students fluctuates
between 120 and 130 -- and

there are many more applicants than that number.
But, according to International Students Office director
Bonnie Hahn the college has
chosen to limit the number in
order to give first priority to
the residents of Lane County
and other in-state students.
The requirements for admission to LCC are not easy to
fulfill, remarks Hahn. LCC
admits only the international
students who score a minimum
of 475 on the Test of English
as a Foreign Language
(TOEFL).
And since international
students are not allowed to

LCC a bank statement which
shows that they -- or their
sponsor -- p9ssess enough
funds to cover their education.
This sum is usually at least
$10,000 per school year.
Another limitation for international students is a possible
disadvantage in selecting an
LCC course of study: Certain
technical career programs give
members of the LCC community enrollment priority.
But Hahn says this limitation
r arely presents problems
because most of the students
are enrolled in a four-year college transfer program.
Academically, foreign
students may experience diffculties if they enter classes they
cannot cope with. Beyond the
challenge of getting to LCC
and performing well in class
work, loneliness and differences in language, climate
and food seem to be the major
challenges foreign students

According to ASLCC Communications Director Laura
Powell, "We have tried to involve international students in
the ASLCC activities.''
Although the ASLCC has a
cultural program, there are no
activities or programs that
directly assist iniernational
students. Kyoichi Ara, from
Japan and in his second year
at LCC, knows of the ASLCC
only because he pays a fee
each quarter to help support
it. He suggests that the
'' ASLCC should make more
promotions and let us know
what they do for students."

LCC men head for championship
Ricks no pushover, says Bates

by Kevin Morris
TORCH Staff Writer

LCC's OCCAA championship men's basketball team
will travel to Twin Falls, Idaho
this weekend to test its talents
against the best teams in
Region 18.
The Titans (20-3) will face
Region 18 Eastern Division
runnerup Ricks College Friday
night. The winner of that contest will meet the winner of the
Chemeketa CC-Southern
Idaho game for the regional title.
The tournament annually
pits the two top teams from
each conference with the winner advancing to the NJCAA
national playoffs. However,
this tourney will be the end of
the road for Lane or
Chemeketa should either team
win. The OCCAA won't send
a representative to national
competition in any sport due
to a ruling made last fall by a
vote of member schools.
How do the Titans feel
about the decision? Cocaptain Stanley Walker calls it
"stupid," but adds that he
doesn't make the rules so he'll
live with it.

According to Lane coach
Dale Bates, Ricks will be
tough -- '' A tall and talented
bunch of players."
"We'll have to play very,
very well to win a game over
there,'' Bates says of the
tourney, adding that even if
the Titans win their opener
Chemeketa is currently playing its best ball of the season.
Bates won't predict a repeat of
his squad's earlier triumph
over the Chiefs.
As a team, Lane is strong.
They lead the conference in offense and are the third best
defensive team in the OCCAA. The Titans also enter
regionals with plenty of individual
firepower.
Sophomore
co-captain
Michael Cooper leads the
Titans in scoring, averaging
15.9 points per game. Cooper
joins Walker on the AllOCCAA first team and is also
an All-Region 18 nominee.
Other players earning OCCAA honors are Matt Bodine
(second team) and Darren Rice
and Greg Merlau (honorable
mention).

Titans out of tourney \Nith 63-54 loss
•

by Lucy Hopkins

TORCH Staff Writer

The third round of the OCCAA women's basketball
playoffs Feb. 28 was not a
charmer for LCC. Chemeketa
eliminated the Titans from the
tourney with a 63-54 win at
Salem.
Lane was "outhustled and
outrebounded'' throughout
the contest, according to
coach Sue Thompson. The
Chiefs held a definite advantage on the boards, taking 46
rebounds to Lane's 26.
Foul trouble also plagued
the Titans, sending three
players -- Dawn Bredesen,
Konnie Denk and DeAnn
Duval -- to the bench late in
the second half. Camee Pupke
finished the contest with four
fouls.
Pupke was the games
leading scorer with 16 points.
Bredesen was close behind
with 12, despite sitting out
most of the first half with
three fouls.

Konnie Denk was the only
other Titan to score in double
figures, racking up 10 points.
DuVal and Lisa Burkhart each
scored five, Sam Prentice
fol.;lr.
Mary Fahey led Chief
scorers with 12 points, followed by former Elmira High
standout Kris Guldager and
Vicki Davis with 11 each.
According to Thompson,
Lane had its best single-game
field goal percentage of the
season, hitting 21 of 42 shots
for 50 percent from the floor.
She also praised the Titans' efforts at the foul line -- 12 free
throws for 20 attempted (60
percent).
Thompson noted that her
team was ''a bit tired and
flat," having played three
games in four days. The
previous Saturday night, the
Titans played host Mt. Hood
down to the wire to win the second round game 59-57 in
overtime.
The Mt. Hood game was,

New Weir film features blend·of intricate plots
by Jeff Keating

TORCH Editor

The scene: Jakarta, Indonesia, late
1965. Newly-arrived magazine reporter
Guy Hamilton sits at his typewriter,
struggling to communicate on paper
the depth of political strife taking place
in this war-torn Asian land.
As Hamilton ponders his work, an
Asian dwarf working as an independent photographer in Jakarta sidles up
to him and says, "If you could have an
interview with anyone in Jakarta, other
than Sukarno, who would it be?"
''The leader of the Communist Party," Hamilton promptly replies.
"I can get it for you," says the
dwarf. And, to Hamilton's astonishment, he does.
Sound a little different? It's just one
of a number of marvelous -- albeit
somewhat confusing -- scenes from
The Year of Living Dangerously, a new
Australian release playing at the Valley
River Twin in Eugene and written and
directed by Peter Weir ( Gallipoli, Picnic at Hanging Rock).
The Year of Living Dangerously recounts a British reporter's efforts to
accurately cover the fall of Achmed
Sukarno, the Indonesian Republic
president and a Communist Party

stalwart ousted through a "mandate of
the people'' by Indonesian Army Chief
of Staff General Suharto in 1966.
The film covers the beginning of the
end for Sukarno and the political and
emotional motivations of/ those who
controlled the Indonesi~~overnment,
those who covered it, and those affected by its decisiono/'- the people.
Weir's film also deals with one
character who is simultaneously covering the earth-shaking events and being
affected by them: Billy Kwan, the
Asian dwarf photographer who
befriend~ lfamilton at the film's beginning. His character is so torn by the effects of Indonesia's political strife on
his people that he becomes a desperate
man seeking solace in the naivete of the
foreign press corps.
His search for comfort in their' ignorance is tempered by a desire to
assure that his people's plight is not only accurately reported and documented
by his foreign colleagues but felt by
them as well.
In his efforts to make Hamilton feel
the Indonesian people's plight, Billy
enlists the aid of British diplomatic
aide Jill Bryant, who makes life in
Jakarta somewhat more bearable for
Hamilton but whose very presence emphasizes the squalor that surrounds

them. As a result, Billy makes his point
while virtually forcing the pair to fall in
love.
The Year of Living Dangerously,
although spattered with action sequences and some violence, is far from
the "action" film one might expect
when dealing with a governmental
overthrow. Rather, it is a ''think
piece" which includes riots and
shootouts to give perspective on the
events and situations surrounding the
main characters.
.
But the biggest and brightest ·beauty
of Weir's latest effort, a beauty inherent in his work, is its concern for
important issues rather than popular
ones. The Year of Living Dangerously
could have been a love story with the
strife in Indonesia as a backdrop; instead, it includes the love story in an
ever-changing lineup of subplots which
underscore the film's far more serious
subject: The oppression of Indonesia's
people and the seeming futility of any
effort to change "the way things are,"
regardless of who holds the reins of
power.
Linda Hunt, a Broadway actress
who assumes a man's role as Billy, is
marvelous. Her part requires a staggering amount of emotional depth combined with an efficiency of movement
and intellect. Hunt conveys all of these

things and more: From Billy's concern
for a Jakarta woman and her child to
his disappointment at Hamilton's
seemingly single-mindedness of purpose, Hunt portrays a caring person's
caring person without coming across as
a bleeding heart.
Mel Gibson, of Gallipoli, Mad Max
and The Road Warrior fame, is just
fine as Guy Hamilton. His solid good
looks and unique mixture of coldness
and passion make him, although not
nearly as complex as Billy, an interesting case study: "Objective" journalist turned into a voice for the plight
of Indonesians.
Sigourney Weaver, as Jill Bryant,
portrays a character who seems less
motivated than the other two. Her relationship with Billy is a little strange, to
say the least, and her depth of emotion, or rather the lack of it, tends to
put one off. Still, she seems comfortable in her role and, in the overall
scheme of things, fits in nicely.
Finally, what makes this film totally
rewarding is its subject matter. One
leaves the theater realizing that no film
has ever dealt with these figures in
history or how characters in film would
deal with these situations. In the final
analysis, it's what makes The Year of
Living Dangerously worth watching.

Journey's latest 'mass appeal -rock-;-•""'
by Adam Fendrich

for the TORCH

Journey writes the hits.
Plain and simple, this prolific
five-man Bay Area-based
band will leave us with a chain
of singles that will be around
for a very long time.
Their new album, Frontiers,
is a competent and logical
transition from 1981 's Escape
album.
Frontiers was produced,
engineered, mastered, and
recorded at the same facilities

and by the same personnel as
Escape. The final product is
highly commercial, yet tuneful
and not totally predictable.
Frontiers is not a carbon
copy of Escape. Indeed, the
overall sound is very similar,
but the subtle changes in
musical composition and
lyrical content are unmistakable.
If you thought Journey had .
nothing to say before, try this
-- from "After The Fall" -- on
for size: Should have told you
then I knew/Should have told

you right from the start/But
the words didn ~t come out
right/So I'll tell you straight
from my heart.
But fun music isn't supposed to have deep lyrics, and
what was lost in words is more
than made up for in solid
musicianship and sheer
technical polish. Jonathan
Cain's keyboards sparkle, and
Neil Schon,s guitar and guitar
synthesizer provide a warm
haze of controlled feedback.
It's Schon's unusually heavy
use of feedback and the spontaneity of many of his solos
that have infused a refreshing

candor in many of Frontiers' . and further vocal training has

The LCC Office of Instruction has
established the following final exam week
policies and procedures for instructional
staff:

final exam week. Exceptions due to extenuating circumstances must be cleared
through the department head.

exam is one hour and 50 minutes.
• An instructor does not have the option
of changing the final exam time or room
for any course.
• Those classes which meet at 1800 (6
p.m.) or later will have final exams during
final exam week at their regularly scheduled class time. If an instructor needs a
longer period of time to give his/her final
exam, he/she should contact the Scheduling Specialist (747-4501, ext. 2362) in

hours on campus each day during final exam week. Office hours will be given to
students prior to final exam week.
• Final exam week is a working week for
all staff. If an examination is not appropriate for a particular class, the instructor will plan and conduct a worthwhile educational activity with .mis/her
