Board refers tax relief plan to voters
by Chris Gann
TORCH Editor

LCC has joined the growing
list/ranks of local governing
bodies that have chosen to
refer to the voters the property
tax reform package.
In a 6-0 decision, the LCC
Board of Education voted to
refer the tax plan, developed
by the Special Session of the
Legislature this year, to the
voters. At the public hearing
before the vote only one person testified about the plan.
LCC student Richard Gold
told board members they
would be ''putting all the eggs
in one basket'' if it refered the
plan to the voters.

A unique aspect of the tax
package requires that a majority of local school districts,
city councils and county commissions refer the plan to the
voters. In addition, if a majority of the governing bodies
do refer the plan, the units
voting for referral must represent a majority of the state's
population.
Vice President for Administrative Services Bill Berry
told the board that, if approved, the plan would make no
difference in revenue to LCC.
He said the tax relief would
amount to "a subsitution of
sales tax revenue for property
tax revenue.''
The four components of the
tax relief plan include:

• A permanent cut in property taxes (up to 35 percent the
first year, and 45 percent in
subsequent years) funded by
• A four percent sales tax
dedicated exclusively to property tax relief
• A constitutional expenditure limitation on state and
local governments
• A freeze on property tax
rates (this freeze will become
effective in - 1984 -- no voter
approval is needed).
In other business the board
approved six new courses for
the college curriculum. The
new classes include Activated
Sludge and Trickling Filters,
Sight Singing, Microcomputer
software, - and Japanese
history courses.

Vice President for Student
Services Jack Carter reported
to the board that the ASLCC
Election By-Laws and Campaign and Election Procedures
Guidelines have been revised
and are now ''in compliance
with the recommendations" of
the College Hearings Committee.
Board members decided to
extend the deadline and
readvertise for candidates to
fill the Zone 1 position vacated
by Ed Cooper in October.
Since that time only one person has applied for the post.
The new deadline for people
interested applying to become
the Zone 1 representative is
Dec 12. The board will interview candidates at its Dec. 14
meeting.

Kent Gorham becomes interim MCC head
by Will Doolittle
TORCH Associate Editor

After nearly four months
without a guiding hand, the
Multi-Cultural Center finally
has an interim coordinator.
Interim Coordinator Kent
Gorham began his job Monday, "probing and assessing"

the Center's needs for staff
and resources, and "clearing
the decks" for future activities.
No stranger to program and
resource
development,
Gorham has spent most of the
last six years as the city of
Eugene's Human Rights
Specialist, working with
Eugene's minority commis-

sions, in addition to working
as staff for other commissions.
Gorham says that he hopes
the Center will be a resource
for people who want to learn
more, not only about their
own culture, but about others
as well. "I would hope that my
definition · of
'multicultural,' " he says, "includes
everybody here at LCC.''

Recycling
translates
into money
by J. Ogden
for the Torch

The next time you use your
LTD student discount bus
pass, you can thank the Student Resource Center's recycling project.
The recycling project has
collected between 500 and 700
pounds of paper every two
weeks since 1976. And that
translates into money recycled
to students.
"We started doing it for the
money,'' explained Gary
Goodeagle, project co-ordinator. "We raised $300 for
our department last year.''
Part of the money was paid
to- the Lane Transit Department (LTD) to help offset
costs of term bus passes subsidized by the student government and the LTD. LCC
students purchased nearly 700
discount passes this fall at $40

1983

each, instead of the regular
price of $44.
Four work-study students
who work at the Student
Resource collect paper every
two weeks and separate it into
four bins for sale to recycling
companies. The profitable
papers are -• Colored paper, which is
worth $35 per ton
• Newsprint, worth $40 per
ton
• White paper at $75 per ton
• Computer print-out, $180
per ton.
"Obviously, we concentrate
on the computer print-out,''
notes Goodeagle.
He says LCC instructors
contribute most of the paper,
so "We try to place barrels in
areas where the teachers have
easy access,'' which means the
SRC has barrels located in
every building on campus. Administration Building personnel recycle paper separately,
however.
Collecting the paper "is the
hardest job at the SRC,''
Goodeagle says. "It's backbreaking work."
One reason the job is so difficult is the large amount of
garbage thrown into the barrels. "It makes the sorting
process much more difficult,''
he complains.
The program requires a lot
of time and effort. Goodeagle
wishes he could devote more
time, "I'm taking 12 credit
hours this term and don't have
the time to do all the things I'd
like to."
But the SRC is developing
plans for making the recycling
project more noticeable -- including larger signs at the
pick-up barrels -- and expects
business this year to be as
good a~ last year's.

Racism and intolerance creating climate of fear

by Will Doolittle
TORCH Associate Editor

I saw a powerful and upsetting
movie last week.
On the surface The Ballad of
Gregorio Cortez, is the true story of a
Mexicano who killed a sheriff in Gonzales, Texas, in I 90 I, and succeeded in
eluding a posse of 600 men for 11
days.
Underneath the excitement of the
chase and escape, however, is the
harsh reality of racism.
It is the contempt and ignorance felt
by the anglos for their Mexican
neighbors that precipitates the death
of the sh.erriff and whips the white
population into a lynch mob fury. The
results are the deaths of three or four
innocent Mexicanos, and a 15 year
prison sentence for Cortez.
This all might have been a study in
history if we, here in lil ol' Eugene, did
not have our own "manhunt" going
on with some of the very same trappings of Gregorio Cortez' story of 82
years ago.

Letters
Take a stand NOW
To the Editor:

In response to Steve Keating's letter
(Torch, Nov. 3):
Why not point out the lack of interest at LCC? The students can't
possibly not see the crimes committed
by ours and other governments! And
if they think nuclear war isn't important to their lives -- what's wrong with
everyone?
I, too, was young during the Viet
Nam era and one thing I hope we have
learned is that we need to take a stand
now, not seven years and too many
deaths late. Because we don't have
seven years! Nuclear holocaust is right
around the corner and not everyone
will go quickly and without pain and
suffering.
So why wait for someone to "drum
up a terrible injustice?" The government does a good job of that. And
while you're waiting for someone to
get your ass in gear to help save lives,
contact a local action group, such as
CALS (343-8545).
Please, this is important and with
your help and help from others, a
change is possible. Don't sit around
and wait for inspiration. Create it!

Spelling or content?
To the Editor:

If Betsy Shand believes appearance
is more important than substance,
then I strongly disagree. Her letter
(Torch, Oct. 27) concerned 100 by
now infamous leaflets, informing
students of a rally organized within 24
hours, opposing US invasion of

Last week two white men were shot
in a bar. The person accused of the act
is a native American man named
Frank Harris (who, by the way, was
enrolled at LCC this term).
Now, whenever a kilfing occurs and
the suspect is still at large, it seems
that the affected community goes
through some emotional changes, and
people become more security conscious.
But when a brown person is accused
of the act the community's mask of
tolerance drops to reveal racism' s ugly
face. And strange things begin to happen.
The killings took place early Thursday morning. By Sunday I began to
hear stories from acquaintances in the
Indian community. On further investigation more reports have surfaced
which are rather disquieting when
looked at together.
A Navaho man was stopped at gunpoint by police on Thursday night.
When he convinced them that he was
not Frank Harris, they proceeded to
ask him where Harris was to be found.
The officers let him go when he told

them he didn't know.
It could be convincingly argued that
the police were within their bounds in
stopping this man with guns dr:awn, as
it was dark and he bears a slight
resemblance to Harris. However,
police stopped the same individual
twice more within the week (although
not at gunpoint) and asked him,
"Where's Frank?."
When a friend of this person called
the police department to complain
that this kind of activity was harrassment, she was told that police were
receiving "literally hundreds" of calls
reporting sightings of "an Indian."
Frank Peterson, field representative
for the Springfield area office of the
Siletz Tribe, confirms this. He told me
that last week an older person,
''obviously male, and obviously
native, with waist-length, graying
hair" came into his office on tribal
business. Within a few minutes of the
man's departure a policeman came into the office, checking on a report that
"an Indian" had been there.
The native American community is
not alone feeling the backlash. A

responsible member of the Chicano
community has told me that police
have stopped an increasing number of
Hispanic men, asking for papers, and
wanting to know Harris' whereabouts.
Members of both communities say
that a climate of fear is being created.
This is borne out in the fact that young
men say they are staying indoors,
regardless of whether or not they
resemble Harris.
A woman told me that when she saw
a policeman watching her car and
realized he was looking at her
bumpersticker -- which stated support
for the rights of American Indians -she decided to remove it. She said she
just didn't want to be hassled.
Another, person said he overheard
two white men talking in a post office
about forming a vigilante group and
"going after that Indian."
So I can't help but think of that
movie:
A brown man is accused of a crime;
The suspect is presumed guilty
before capture or trial;
All brown men are automatically
suspect and assumed to be in cahoots

Grenada. The letter complained about
a deluge of misspelled leaflets using illspent student government funds.
I would like LCC students to know
that I am one of the ''hot heads,'' as
described in one of last week's letters,
who organized the distribution of
those flyers. Furthermore, the
character who misspelled the country's name was not ASLCC president
Bryan Moore, but yours truly. Bryan
was busy elsewhere, and the copies
were printed before the error was
realized. For this mistake, I do
apologize and would like to take full
responsibility.
On the subject of misspent money,
small expenditures have been made for
such informational purposes in the
past, without the consent of all the
student senate. However, last Thursday's student senate meeting revoked
such a precedent with a new policy requiring the vote of senators. The decision was unanimous, and I am glad to
see written guidelines.
But this incident has been blown out
of all proportion. On consideration, it
seems to me that the real issue is the
political content, rather than the
"poor image" or even the cost ($4) of
printing such leaflets.
If this is so, then my personal
response is as follows:
• Earlier this term the Student
Resource Center (for which I work)
conducted a survey in which a majority of students who responded asked
for more information on issues of international concern. It seems to me
that political awareness is of no use if
it remains an academic subject behind
closed doors. On Wednesday, two
weeks ago, students were informed
about an action which they could take
if they so felt motivated.
• I am of the opinion that some of
the more thinking Eugene inhabitants
gathered to protest their government's

actions in the Caribbean. Far from improving America's national security,
this invasion brings us all a step closer
to another world war . .. and some of
our own Marines to wasted deaths.
For these points, I do not.apologize.
However, not everyone agrees. And
this is fine, too. I suggest that those
with different views upon the matter
organize events which represent
themselves. They may be able to procure student funding.
l ra . little controversy-will shake us
(myself included) out of our apathy,
then I am glad that these objections
were raised. But please don't target
our ASLCC president for poor spelling.

posed to combat, and all that it entails.
The Pentagon has determined that
the American public would support
another protracted war for half the
time that Vietnam ran, but with twice
the number of casualties.
Moreover, we are not dealing with
countries that have no air support,
and nuclear confrontation is more a
real issue today than it was during the
Vietnam era.
The United States is not an isolated
island, and considering the American
military management system,
(Command), hasn't taken responsibility for its last policy in Vietnam I
don't see how it can be successful in
other protracted wars.
For myself, I know a soldier's occupation is killing people, too often
the wrong people. The reasons Command gives for justifying the war are
not real reasons at all.
For example, our government's
justification for our involvement in
Viet Nam was the the Domino theory.
However, on Jan. 1, 1970, Shell Oil
Co. started negotiations with the
Thieu government for off shore drilling rights. And consider that any trees
in the Michelin Rubber Plantation
that were damaged by fire support
were paid for by the individual soldier
responsible for calling in the needed
fire support.
I might add that Michelin was owned by Sears Roebuck and Co., not
some Frenchman.
We, as a nation, can no longer afford the luxury of using force to protect our national interest.
If, we are indeed the most powerful
nation in the world, the weight of our
agricultural and technological influence should suffice.

Harmonious energy for world peace
Forum submitted by Kazumitsu Koga
How many of us really know the relationship between world
peace and true martial art?
Unfortunately, many people think that martial art is how to attack, how to fight, or simply how to defend oneself. There are
several reasons why people misunderstand the meaning of martial
arts. For example, martial art movies, like Bruce Lee's, gave us a
wrong and shallow image about martial art. They just show some
flamboyant technique because of commercialization.
However, two great Masters of martial art discovered the true
meaning of martial art. One of the Masters was the founder of
Aikido. His name was Master Ueshiba who was Japanese. He
defined martial art as Love Art. Budo is the Japanese term for
martial art. According to Master Ueshiba, "Bu" or "Martial"
means how to conquer our selfishness, ego, and negative feeling. It
is also the way to become one with the Great Harmonious Energy
of the Universe. "Do" means way. So "Budo" means way to
recombine with the Cosmic Life Force which is the Great Harmonious Energy. Another word is Energy of Divine Love.
Therefore, Aikido is the way of studying the Love Energy of the
Universe. The Universe is maintained by this Energy; i.e., Harmonious Energy. Wherever there is harmony, there is peace. Consequently, when people learn true martial art, they have to show
peace and harmony in their daily life.
There is another great Master of Budo, who also defined the
meaning of Budo as the way to establish world peace. His name is
Master Kim. He researched the origin of martial art and found
that it goes back five thousand years.
The "Samile Sinko" is one of the oldest Korean sutras which
teaches us that man is originally a child of the Universal Spirit. The

(continued from page 2)
The Iranian hostage-taking is irrelevant. Iran is populous, well-armed,
and half a world away. Once its
leaders chose to act barbarically, we
could do little. Grenada is tiny, nearby, with a tiny military. Had it eventually threatened our citizens, intervention at that point would still present few military problems. Moreover,
and unlike Iran, Grenada hadn't
threatened us.
Wherever a government is unfriendly, Americans are potentially endangered. That's unfortunate. But
unless that potential becomes actual,
it's insufficient cause to break our nation a I • commitment to selfdetermination for all people. The coup
posed no such danger. Nothing
justified our invasion. By ordering it,
the Administration betrayed our
government's ideals and ourselves.
lt's especially disturbing that the
President expects "to restore order
and democracy" to Grenada. He
falsely believes that American guns
create friendly democracies. Our
military cannot compel others to
govern themselves, let alone be
democratically friendly.
Peace, and creation of a government by, for, and of Grenadians, must
now be our goals. Grenadian selfdetermination requires withdrawal of
their neighbors' soldiers. However, a
power vacuum now exists. Peaceful
rebirth of government therefore needs
not only a ceasefire and withdrawal of
foreign partisans, military and
civilian, but also introduction of an
impartial, extra-regional force to help
hold elections. The proposed Commonwealth force may serve, if it excludes Caribbean, and includes nonaligned nations.
The President owes apologies -- to
Grenada, to Americans, for betraying
our national ideals; and especially to
our soldiers, for abusing their
patriotism in a dishonorable cause.

Universal Spirit is omnipotent, great harmony, beauty, goodness,
truth, sincerity, divine love, and great life force. Accordingly, we
children of the Universal Spirit have the potential to manifest the
will of our parent.
Master Kim says that·there is a certain way to recombine with
our Great Life Force or Universal Spirit. It's called meditation,
yoga and true Budo (true martial art). These interact with each
other. However, these ancient techniques and methods are too
complicated for modern people. So Master Kim reorganized these
methods to fit modern people and society.
He calls these methods Peace Yoga, Peace Meditation and Budo
(World Peace Breathing). The World Peace Breathing is the first
step in becoming one with the Universal Love Energy.
In addition to this, Master Kim found the relationship between
world peace and our brain wave. Modern physics says that our
world consists of waves, not solid mass. Master Kim agrees with
this theory, and moreover, he says that waves interact 'Yith each
other, especially the brain waves of human beings. Brain researchers found that there are several kinds of brain waves: gamma,
beta, alpha, theta, and delta waves. These brain waves are related
to our mind's movement.
For example, when we feel anger or fear, we are emitting the
gamma wave, which is an extremely destructive wave and very
rough. When we have tension or stress, we emit the beta wave. On
the other hand, when we are in a peaceful mind state and a relaxed
situation, we are emitting the alpha wave. Furthermore, when we
are in the very deep level of peaceful mind state we can omit a theta
wave.
In my opinion, the President of the U.S. and Yuri Andropov are
both emitting fearful brain waves which are gamma waves. Accordingly, both of them are creating a destructive nuclear missile.

H<;>w can we prevent this silly arms race? There is an easy way for
us: That is the World Peace Breathing which will be able to einit an
alpha wave all the time. The alpha or theta wave is a harmonious
wave. The deeper the harmonious wave we can reach, the greater
harmonious energy of the universe will be.
The time we emit the great harmonious energy of the universe
through our alpha or theta ·wave, we will be able to erase the
negative energy wave which is the gamma or beta wave.
Thereupon, Master Kim teaches us the world peace breathing
which is the essence of true Budo.
In Chicago, more than 2000 people in nursing homes have been
receiving benefit by practicing world peace breathing. For example, some of the patients couldn't move their fingers at all, but
after they started world peace breathing their fingers began to
move slowly. This evidence shows us how the Great Harmonious
Energy of the Universe erased the patients' negative wave and their
physical condition regained physical harmony.
Up to this year, more than 40 states and 130 cities in the U.S.
declared Peace Day. This is because of Master Kim and his
students' hard work. This never happened in the U.S. before they
started. On this point also, we can observe how powerful the Great
Harmonious power of the Universe is. Master Kim says that
everybody can work for world peace by radiating the alpha wave.
The key is world peace breathing.
So, as the examples of Master Kim and Master Ueshiba show,
true martial art is neither how to attack nor how to fight, but how
to tap the Universal Love Energy and establish world peace.
May peace prevail on earth. For further information for World
Peace, write International Association, 3315-23 North Clark St.,

LCC's Cooperative Work Experience Department.
"It's the most exciting thing

from LCC counselors who attempt to match the clients'
skills and preferences with
career options. The college

academic coursework and onthe-job training.

Then you're out, and there's
no second chance. My suggestion is, stay with something
you know.''
Voe Rehab's Ed Heikes
agrees. He says counselors try
to find careers that will make
use of skills the worker already
has, and that provide a good
chance of employment.
Counselors must certify that
the job site has the personnel

and facilities to train the
worker. Trainers must sign a
contract agreeing to meet the
workers' learning goals.
.. . But some break new
ground

Not every injured worker
can find a new career related
to a former job. Dave Martina, 37, an independent
trucker for 14 years, is now
learning to be a cobbler.
Martina said that because of
his lack of education, his options were limited. He needed
a type of work that he could
master within the time normally allowed for completing the
Proficiency Skills program.
Veneta shoe repairman
Frank Faust agreed to take-on
Martina as an apprentice.
Working one-on-one with
Faust, Martina will complete a
nine-month apprenticeship

this winter that would have
taken between one and two
years in a larger: shop. In addition, he's taking business
courses through The Bus,
LCC's mobile campus.
Faust was initially hesitant
in accepting a trainee. Now, he
says he would do it again "if
they send me someone like
Dave, someone who works,
and will listen.''
Ed Heikes says that many
potential employers fear involvement with the state
bureacracy. And they worry
about responsibility for an injured worker. "We have to
overcome that stigma,'' he
says.
LCC's Dixie MaurerClemons points out that there
are advantages for employers
in accepting trainees.
Employers are paid by the
state for their part in the training. Employees, most of
whom draw insurance
benefits, are not paid during
the training period.
In addition, she says
employers have the opportunity to train a worker to the
company's specifications -many employers then retain
their trainees in permanent
jobs after the workers have
completed the program.
Staying with the company

Dean Devlin, a 24-year-old
former welder who suffered an
eye injury last year, completed
training as a Computer Assistant with the Sweet Home
Ranger District of Willamette
National Forest. He was immediately hired under a Forest

Services abound
from SSA and CIC
by Lori Miller
for the Torch

Besides the counselors.
Besides the advisers and the
faculty. H~re's someone else
you can go to for help.
First of all, they're students.
And they're ''special people," says Julia Poole, coordinator for the 19 Student Service Associates (SSA) this fall.
SSAs are "referral agents" for
new and returning students on
campus, helping them locate
needed services or resources.
Their job is to staff the
Career Information Center on
the second floor of the Center
Building. They help students
obtain information on specific
occupations from the Career
Information System computer, and work in the Job
Skills Lab in the Forum
Building. The CIC helps an
average of 70 students per
week, or around 2240 students
during the school year.
In the Job Skills Lab,
associates help students and
community people learn
resume writing and interviewing skills. Skills are improved
through videotaped interviews
in the lab _ which, when
replayed, help students
discover errors. SSAs point
out problems and suggest improvements.

Though two-thirds of the
workshop was directed toward
the treatment of the victim,
conference participants also
attempted to explore strategies
and concepts for the
rehabilitation of the offender.
But treatment of offenders is
an unknown concept and experimental techniques have
not been thouroughly
evaluated.
But this much was
acknowledged: The offender,
in order to enter the therapy
group, must first admit committing the crime and accept
full responsibility. Rex
Newton, involved in private
practice, and Annette Selmer,
consultant on sexual abuse
treatment, stated that the fantasies of the offender have to
be dealt with in order to
rehabilitate the person. They
further stated that the offender must control his/her
actions concerning their fantasies in order to protect the
children in society.
So far, little or nothing is
known about a "cure" for the
incest offender: The lack of
trained personnel is a factor.
The limited number of
trainees, counselors and
therapists is due to the absence
of credit classes that deal
specifically with incest and its
effects. Mainly due to insufficient funds, neither LCC nor
U of O has a· credit class on
this topic.

•From the AS LCC
by Cathy Benjamin

ASLCC Communications Director

• ASLCC would like to congratulate the LCC Black Student Union for its
very successful Halloween fundraiser at the Valley River Inna-bringing in
over $850 ... get down folks!
• We also want to report that the Halloween dance in the campus cafeteria
that was sponsored by the LCC Latino Club and the (soon to be) LCC
Spanish club was one of the better attended cafeteria events that has happened here in years.
• We are proud of the rapport that is developing between ASLCC and
many of the clubs on campus. If you are part of a club, or want to start a
club, come talk to us. We are here to work with you. Remember, there is indeed strength in unity when we work towards the same common goals.
• ASLCC wants to welcome the Gay and Lesbian Alliance as the latest officially recognized club here at LCC. We are looking forward to working
closely with it on future events.
• The International Students Friendship Club came to our Nov. 3 meeting
to ask for contact families in the area for the international students here at
Lane. They stressed that these students do not need housing, but families to
share some of our cultural experiences with (Thanksgiving, Christmas). If
you are interested, call Bonnie Hahn at ext. 2660.
• Campus Ministry is selling t-shirts that stress the importance of nuclear
disarmament for $7. If you are very broke, but still want to help in this fundraising effort, you can bring your own shirt in and get it printed for $3.
They are also sponsoring a seminar on "The World's Uprooted" on Tuesday, Nov. 15 from 1 p.m. - 3 p.m. in the LCC Boardroom. The seminar will
feature Reverend Austin Ray, who will speak on issues such as what happens
to the refugees from combat areas around the world.
• Senator Fran Johnson is compiling information from other Oregon community colleges on their student evaluation of teachers processes. A committee has formed that is researching this subject at Lane. The goal is to integrate
one student from each department. If you have any interest or input in this
project, contact Fran in our offices, Center 479.
• Singer/songwriter Jeff Reynolds will perform in the LCC cafeteria on
Monday, Nov. 14 at 1:30 p.m.
• ASLCC voted to endorse and allocate $ 100 to the "Crisis In Central
America" conference that the U ofO will be holding on Nov. 17-19. This will
be an educational conference which will have many nationally known
speakers and interesting workshops. LCC students are encouraged to attend.
• We also voted to support the reinstatement of yoga courses at LCC, and
to bring the matter forth to the Curriculum Committee.
• Our next ASLCC senate meeting will be on Thursday, Nov. 10 at 3 p.m.
in the LCC Boardroom. You are invited to attend any and all of our
meetings.

ICE educational experience
offers a rewarding program
by Andrea Watrud
for the TORCH

Last year seven LCC
students spent the summer
working overseas; only one
returned.
Six students decided to stay
in their chosen countries
following a 10-week work program offered through the International Cooperative Experience (ICE).
The
ICE
program,
established three years ago, is
an "educational experience"
that allows students to grow
and learn, says Peggy
Marston, the program coordinator.
Last year, only seven of the
40 applicants actually went
abroad. But according to

Marston, ''the word is getting
around and more people are
aware they can participate in
this program."
She thinks the money required is a major factor: First
is a $300 processing fee that
covers the cost of an LCC
liaison to locate a job and living accommodations for each,
student; an additional $500 is
recommended for spending
money and living costs until an
initial pay check is issued.
Those interested in applying
for next summer can still
qualify before this year's
deadline, Dec. 10. ,
For further information
contact Peggy Marston,
located near the ASLCC offices, fourth floor Center
Building.

Benefit dinner

Friendship program
International Friendship Family is a program new to LCC
this year. The purpose is for international students to share
cross-cultural experiences with families from their host country.
We are not looking for housing for the students. We want to
provide a comfortable space for students who are living on
their own to be part ofa family group at times. The time spent
together should be spontaneous. The frequency and length of
time will depend on the student and family interest. Because of
their cultural significance, holidays would be one suggested
time for interaction.
By making you aware of this program, we hope that you will
be interested in sharing time and hospitality with one of our
students. Please pass this information on to other families and
friends you know who might be interested.
Contact Paula Key or Mira Gattis, International Student Office, Center Rm. 452, 726-2204, ext. 2660.
The group meets Monday, Wednesday, & Friday, 12-1 p.m.
in Apprenticeship 216 at LCC. There is no charge.

A select group of stained glass artisans, under the direction
of Tenold Peterson, are pooling their time and talents to construct a massive stained glass piece for the east face of the
Center Building. The group, Circle of Glass, needs financial
support for the purchase of glass and other supplies, and is
holding an opening at 7 p.m., Friday, Nov. 11, on the first
floor of the Math and Arts Building.
Refreshments will be served and although the opening is
free, donations will be greatly appreciated with premiums being awarded to commemorate a link between artist and community. Donations may also be sent to the LCC Art Department in care of the Circle of Glass project fund.
