Stiffer regulations on financial aid
by Christine Moses
for the TORCH

Because of new federal
regulations for federal financial aid, it is crucial for
students to file next year's
financial aid applications with
the College Scholarship Service by the April 1 deadline -that's this Sunday.
According to Linda Waddell, LCC Financial Aid director, the new regulations,
which will go into effect July
l, 1984, will require all fouryear universities and tw~-year
colleges to stop awarding
federal funds to students after
the students accumulate a
predetermined number of
credits, or have exceeded a
specified number of terms
allowed for completing programs.
Besides meeting the degree
or certificate requirement
within the time frame,
students using federal funds
must also successfully complete a certain percentage of
classes each term and maintain
an acceptable grade point
average.
All Federal Title IV Student

Aid Programs are affected by
the new regulations: Pell
Grants, Supplemental Educational Opportunity Grants,
College Work Study, National
Direct Student Loans,
Guaranteed Student Loans,
and the PLUS Loan Program.
Generally, Waddell says the
requirements will affect community college students in the
following ways:
• LCC students may be considered for financial aid as
long as they have not attended
any college (two or four year)
for more than 9 terms and/ or
108 credit hours.
• Students may file an appeal if it will take them more
than nine terms or 108 credits
to complete their program.
However, time extensions will
be granted only for reasonable
program changes or for
documented circumstances
beyond the student's control.
• If an LCC student's appeal
is denied, the student may not
receive any additional funding
while attenoing LCC.
• Students currently atten. ding LCC are not exempt from
these new regulations.
According to Waddell, the

regulations permit each institution to determine the normal length of time it takes a
student to complete a program
at that school. Federal funding
for undergraduate work at the
University of Oregon will be
limited to 186 credits (the
number normally required to
complete a four-year baccalaureate degree). The regulations are intended to encourage students to complete a
four-year degree.
Interpreting the US Department of Education's regulations, Waddell says the plan is
designed to make sure all
students have an opportunity
to enter college. "We have
limited funds and we want
people to have an opportunity
to start their education and
an opportunity to complete it.
There is not enough money to
go around.''
She says the regulation is an
attempt to ensure fair access to
available funds for both current and potential students.
The regulation also encourages students to ''realize
their degree objective in a
reasonable length of time. It
encourages students to stay on
course."

American society
misunderstands
Islamic way of life
by Paul McFarlane

TORCH Staff Writer

Although approximately one billion Moslems inhabit
the earth in such culturally diverse nations as Saudi
Arabia and the Soviet Union, their religion -- Islam -- is
misunderstood by most Americans.
Islamic scholar M. Reza Benham spoke about the
religion, and the western world's misunderstanding of
it, during a session of Rita Hennessey's Religions of the
Western World class Feb. 2. Benham is director of the
Institute of Advanced Middle Eastern Studies in Eugene
and holds a Ph.D. in political science from the University of Oregon.
In the past few years Islamic political disent, especially in the Middle East, has generated much controversy
and confusion about Islam. One reason Americans
misunderstand Islam, and the issues surrounding it, is
that the mass media evades and distorts (he real issues,
said Behnam.
''Confusing -- not to mention hostile -- commentaries
laced with sardonic remarks abound about Moslems
and their religion, Islam. Very little of the detail, the
human density, the passion of. . . Moslem life has
entered the awareness of even those whose profession it
is to report the Islamic world,'' Behnam pointed out.
"Islam .. .is equated with an undifferentiated mob of
scimitar-waving oil suppliers, or it is reduced to the utterences of one or another Islamic leaders who at the
moment happens to be a convenient foreign
scapegoat.''
Another reason for misunderstanding is that
Americans find it difficult to empathize with Islam. According to Behnam, "no major segment of the polity,
no significant sector of the culture, no part of the whole
community is capable of identifying sympathetically
with the Islamic world."
Behnam said Americans, and the west in general, tend
to compartmentalize, or separate family, business,
social, and religious activities.
Within Islam however, all these activities, and more,
are governed by a complex ideology that reflects "the
will of God." "For Islam there is only one path,"
Behnam explained.
The west tends to separate the secular from the sacred
he said, and ''The western concept of such separation is
alien to Islamic thought."
"Islam is not just a religion, if religion means only a
system of beliefs and worship," said Behnam. "Rather,
Islam is a total way of life.''
This, he asserts, may be the key to westerners
understanding the Islamic culture.

on February 14. It once again
reiterated the proposal it raised to the signing of a limited
agreement between Iran and
Iraq for bilateral termination
of attacks on populated cities.
This same proposal had been
rejected by Khomeini's regime
before, and as was expected, it
was rejected once again.
Noting that with their
revolution the Iranian people
set forth "freedom and independence'' as two general
and inseparable principals;
noting that the NCR has set as
its objective the overthrow of
the Khomeini regime and the
establishment of a political
system based on the will and
sovereignty of the people, it is
evident that the only
democractic alternative to this
regime is the National Council
of Resistance. As long as Khomeini rules, there will be no
end to thjs bloody, destructful
war.

I thought there was a certain
nobility to Tito's existence until the day I fell asleep at my
table (a hazard in the tropics)
after having eaten only a small
portion of my commida. I
woke up to find that Tito had
stolen my cigarettes, finished
my meal, and was in the hasty
process of pouring my fruit
drink into his glass. Marta,
who became aware of this
situation at the same time
picked up a section of rubber
hose and chased Tito into the
street, swinging wildly at him,
screaming numerous unprintables in Spanish, and sending
pigs and chickens scrambling
in a variety of directions. I had
to laugh.
I began to relish every oppo rt unity to experience
Nicaragua as a countw, rather
than a contemporary political
phenomenon. Baseball is the
national game here, not soccer. You see people playing it
everywhere. Nicaraguans love
to have wet sand fights when
they're at the beach. They do
it 'til everyone gets incredibly
messy, then they jump in the
ocean to wash off. Nicaraguan
children, . like most LatinAmerican children, are prone
to laughter and walking about
arm in arm. After awhile you
forget all about ''the invasion." And when you do think
about it, it just seems so weird.

I had always thought that
there was some economic
necessity in preventing
socialist revolution in the third
world, that maintains a system
of totally shameless, open ended exploitation of these countries was imperative to a
healthy US economy. But I
now concur with the opinion I
heard often in Nicaragua, that
leftist countries are just as easy
to exploit as their right ·wing
counterparts - ''you just have
to modify your style a bit."
Rather, I think Nicaragua
represents a conveniently
small, vulnerable victim for
Pentagon "hawks" frustrated
after ten years of military inactivity by the United States,
that the tradional use of
militarism as an outlet for
sadism and power mongering
has far more to do with their
desire to invade Nicaragua
than legitimate concern over
national security. This leads
me to the disheartening conclusion that there is probably a
large element within the US
military establishment that can
hardly wait to drop bombs on
the civilian population of this
baseball-crazy, American
music loving nation, now that
they can no longer use the
Vietnamese for this purpose.
Should this transpire, I for
one, will never forgive those
who have these good people's
blood on their hands.

Opposing
prayer
To the Editor:

I'm profoundly disturbed by
the Congress' consideration of
proposals allowing public
schools to organize prayer or
''moments of silence'' in their
classrooms.
My religious faith is uniquely my own, its expression as
necessarily individual as the
quality of my voice. I know
people who share my faith in
general, and some few who are
like me in many particulars;
but all my experience and contact with people of different
religions convinces me . that

anyone's faith, in all its particulars, is as unique as a set of
fingerprints.
Because one person's faith
differs from another's, when
people gather for religious
purposes they all compromise
to some degree. Within a
religious community, small
disagreements are overlooked
so that common principles
may be celebrated. Larger
disagreements, too important
to compromise, create
separate religious communities: Catholics, atheists,
Protestants, Buddhists, Sikhs,
agnostics, etc.
As Americans, we're
relatively free to chose
whichever religious community suits us, or none at all. In
other words, we've the basic
freedom to decide how far
we'll compromise our personal
religious understanding by
associating with a given group.
We've no obligation to belong
to a religious group whose
beliefs contradict our own.
As American citizens, we
also participate in the public
institutions serving the nation.
If these institutions organize
religious obeservances, then
we who use them as a right and
duty of citizenship will be
enrolled in a specific religious
community as well; one whose
prescribed practices may ential
relgious compromises unac-

ceptable to us. For some of us,
perhaps many of us, this will
surely by true. Americans will
then have to choose between
exercising their rights as
citizens, and using our public
institutions; or holding fast to
their religious beliefs, and excluding themselves from the
religious communities those
public institutions will have
become. No American should
have to make that choice.
It won't help to "excuse"
people from a public function,
e.g. school, during the
prescribed religious observance. This amounts to saying
that, at scheduled intervals,
selected citizens will be denied
full use of public facilities
because of their religious convictions. Similarly, ''moment
of silence'' legislation, because
of the variety of American
relgious practices, virtually
guarantees that someone,
religiously unable to participate, will be forced to
chose between faith and full
citizenship.
We all have the right to
pray, on our own initiative,
when and where we please.
Organized, officially sanctioned, time for prayer adds
nothing to this right. But it
may tarnish the devotions of
those who'd normally exercise
it, as they see some classmates
fearfully pretend to join them

in prayer, and others, whose
faith prevents them from praying in the prescribed time,
place, manner, or company,
persecuted for their religion.
Please join me in preserving
all Americans' rights of
citizenship and religious
freedom. Please oppose
organized time for prayer in
our public schools and institutions.

White train

To the Editor:

I had to go meet the White
Train because it is a focus of
evil. It carries 200 hydrogen
bombs. Such a collection of
prepared atrocities must be
stood against with our entire
beings, yet in nonviolence and
love.
We knelt or sat on the
tracks. Some of us prayed,
some sang, and some cried at
the horror of this train's
meaning.
Because there were only 175
people out to meet the train,
does it mean that society condones it? We stopped the train
for three hours, but eventually
there were more police than
protesters, and those on the
tracks were removed and arrested.

''This train contains 1,000
Hiroshimas!" one of the
track sitters was heard to cry.
The authorities appeared unmoved. Is most of society unmoved, unthinking, denying
that our government prepares
holocausts far worse than
anything we've known in all of
history?
In Nazi Germany trains carried millions of people to
death, and people looked the
other way. In- our time, this
train carries death to a billion
people; are we willing to see it
for what it is, and respond accordingly? The parallels are
profound: A highly intelligent,
technologized society, full of
"good people just doing their
jobs,'' failing to face the terrible meaning of their combined
efforts and complicity. How
long can we avert our gaze?
Do we fail to learn anything
from the pain and struggles of
the past?
To understand this train
with our minds is impossible,
because as theologian James
Douglas has reminded us, ''to
understand Hiroshima alone
would take a lifetime." The
nuclear sword will be lowered
and broken in two only
through a change of hearts.

kicked off her Eugene
"Campaign for a Positive

Presidency on the Democratic
ticket, Thursday, March 15, at

Calling herself a "normal

is an open spot in US politics,
"an office that nobody wants,

She proposes to develop the
potential and greatly expand
the role of the Vice President
by creating an ''Office of the

positive options and solutions
from people in all fields of
science and society to meet

current global problems. ''The

of gathering everyone's new
ideas." Hubbard asserts.

tions to current national and
global problems rest with the
populace. '' Democracy
releases the individual; science
and the rational intellect have
brought us to the crisis, we are
on the threshold of a higher
consciousness and a solution
to disunity... we can't survive
with the current solutions."
Hubbard views her candidacy as "a catalyst for this
force of futuristic centers"
and solutions. "We have to
use our resources to create
this, we must all connect with
the new state of mind."
In the next few weeks Hubbard proposes to talk with
Gary Hart and Walter Mondale to ask them if they want a
Vice Presidential candidate
"who can bring them all the
new ideas within the nation.''
Hubbard adds she thinks
Mondale needs her ideas
more, but that Hart will probably be more receptive to
them.
Creating more support
through the development of
Positive Future Centers at the
local level, and gaining increased media coverage are
essential to "surface this campaign as a national issue'' in
the immediate future she
asserts.

pie who LCC' s Campus
Ministry is trying to help.

According to Fr. James
Dieringer, director of Campus
Ministry (CM), not all of the
hungry people who come to
CM for help are in such
·serious circumstances. But the
source of their problem is
often the same.
A lot of people, especially
single men, don't think they
are eligible for food stamps,
"they don't even apply -- they
don't try to get them,'' he
says. Others simply run out of
food before the end of the
month and are forced to get
help somewhere, Dieringer
says, "after two weeks of
cheese sandwiches two or three
times a day -- you're getting
pretty desperate."
Campus Ministry helps
LCC's hungry in several ways.
When the three or four
students per week come to the
Ministry office in need of
food, the CM staff either gives
them a few dollars to buy
something to eat, or provides a
food basket from the
ministry's larder -- if it's
stocked. Father Dieringer says
their goal is ''to help students
stay in school and have at least
enough food in their belly so
their minds don't go gunny
bag on them."
Recently, CM became the
liaison between the Lane
County Food Bank and LCC
for the distribution of government surplus foods -- milk,
cheese, and butter. This allows

The CM staff tries to keep a
well-stocked larder at all
times, but a lack of funds
sometimes prevents this. Until
this month, the Food Bank
was supplying the majority of
the food. At other times the

during
Christmas, the staff sponsors
the Sharing and Caring program, which solicits food
donations from individuals for
food baskets to give to LCC
families.
Last year CM gave away 15
to 20 baskets. One department
on campus held a Christmas
party in which all those attending had to bring a food item
to be donated to Campus
Ministry.
Campus Ministry is located
in Room 125 of the Center
Building, its telephone is extension 2814.
For those who need help finding food, there are certain
criteria which must be met:
Father Dieringer says, ''they
gotta be a human being, connected with LCC, and they
gotta be hungry. And we gotta
know about them.''

Spring graduates should submit

According to Carter, those
students lacking a course or a
few credits may still participate in the graduation
ceremony. However, they
must complete the remaining
coursework the following
summer or fall term.
The Student Activities Office is responsible for publicizing the graduation ceremonies,
making arrangements for caps

ceremony itself. Students
receive their diploma covers at
the ceremony, and their
diplomas in the mail from the

Panelists discussed Feminization of Poverty
by Frank Nearing
TORCH Staff Writer

When five panelists convened on March 1 to discuss
the "Feminization of Poverty,'' they offered both
statistics and strong opinions
on the reasons why women
are poor.
The panel was part of a
series billed as the LCC Student Resource Center Open
House, although it failed to
draw an audience apart from
the media and the panelists
themselves. Rich Gold, an
LCC student, acted as
chairperson.
• Joan Acker from the UO
Center for Study of Women in
Society, defined the issue as
"women's poverty." She said
women's wages are lower, the
wage gap has persisted for . 30
years and it continues to
widen.
''Women earn on the
average -- if they are full-time
year around employees -- 59
percent of the earnings of the
average full-time year-around
male employee.'' She identifies massive sex segregation
of the work force as the worst
enemy of women who work.
But she sees changes are on
the horizon and gives credit to
the Affirmative Action and
Equal Pay for Equal Work
Act of 1963 for the coming
change.
• Don Keister, regional
director of Adult and Family
Services (AFS), said that in
the State of Oregon, because
of a change in eligibility requirements, the welfare
caseload for January 1979 .

(99~800) dropped · in January
1984 to 77,619 individuals

families receive an (ADC)
grant. Of these single parent

served.
But nationwide, The New
York Times, citing Census
Bureau data, reported in
February that ''Those with incomes below the poverty level
-- less than $9,862 for a family
of four in 1982 -- rose from
26.1 million in 1979 to 34.4
million. That represented a
28.2 percent growth rate when
population changes were taken
into account.''

by women.
And he observed that

are about those issues they
won't have that side of the
story. It's up to us to take it to
them."
• Doris Hall, the final
speaker, is a Democratic candidate in District 39 in the May
15 primary.
She sees feminization of
poverty in the light of
'' alienated women, totally
abused by the system, their
minds turned off." She suggested
women
could
strengthen their hands by networking through such
organizations as Older
Women's League and its national counterpart, NOW.
Susan Firor, a student in
aviation maintenance and
perhaps the only female student in attendance, left the
meeting with this impression,
"I'm very interested in the
issue of equal pay for equal
work. When I think .about
graduating from Mechanics
School and entering the work
force I'm not only going to be
up against the difficulties of
being in an entirely male environment, I'm also going to
be up against wage differentials. I'd like to be prepared to
deal with that, legally and on a
constructive level..''

mother and children at least

• Robin Bowman identified
herself as a former welfare
mother. She is currently
employed on a part-time basis
by the Lane County Client's
Council.
She said her experience as a
single parent on welfare was
degrading and spoke of the
welfare system as dehumanizing. "When you are dependent
upon them for your very existence you think twice before
challenging the system,'' she
said. The Client's Council
wants to empower the poor,
register them as voters and
educate them to lobby for
welfare reform, Bowman said.

Oregon's Women's Political
Caucus, commended state
legislators for funding Legal
Aid for low income families.

she said "if we're not there

According to Wilken, the
distance and throwing squads
will set the stage for a possible
stab at the Northern Championships on May 18 and 19,
which will be held at LCC.

Other members include
Donna Nelson (1500 and

lifts in her 132 pound class,
enough to win the overall
women's lift award with a 1.08
lifting ration. This ratio moved her into 8th place on the top
ten women lifters' list.
In the men's division, new
power lift records were also
set. Up from his normal 132 .
pound class, competing at the
148 pound class, Mike
Cramblit tied the existing
school record in the bench
press with a powerful press of
225 pounds. Chris Newman
became a member of the intramural power li ft 1000
pound club with his total lifted
weight of 1010 pounds.
Newman competed at the
181 pound class. Other
members in the men's division
included Jim Buchholtz at 165
pounds, Don Arnold at 198,
Scott McKee and Bill Schmidt
at 220 and Keith Mellinger at
132 pounds.
The most outstanding lifts
of the competition were provided by the overall champion,
Keith Mellinger, who posted
records in the 132 pound class
in the squat event of 275
pounds, dead lift of 360
pounds with a combined
weight lifted at 810 lbs. and
body weight ratio of 2.05.
Mellinger was awarded an intramural championship t-shirt
for his record-breaking efforts. He is now listed as the
eighth best power lifter at
LCC.
Total combined weight
lifted for all contestants are as
follows : Tess Dorsey 325 ;

Hutchinson (800).
The power throwers in the
shot put and discuss, which
throwing coach Jim Grant
perceives the best ever for
Lane are: Michelle Souder
(s.p./discuss); Jodi Brown
(s.p./ discuss/javeli n); and
Chris Viltz (s.p.).
Additional help comes from
Chris Mitchell, Wendy
Wilson, Donna Fleischer and
Keeley Frank to add depth to a
once weak area for Lane.
The sprinters, coached by
Fred Siekerman and Larry

Callaway, are starting with a
freshman squad. Angie Ross
and Cathy Wright in the 400
meters, along with Diedre
Thomas and Debbie Dailey in
the 100 and 200, will hold their
own against tough sprinters
from Bellevue and Spokane
Community Colleges. The
sprint squad will be a deciding
factor in determining Lane's
ability to challenge for the
Northwest title. Help in this
area will come from Janene
Miles (200 and 400), Mary
Christianson (400) Tanya
Love (100) and Mary Phillips
(100).

But Spiekerman says the
hurdles are a definite area of
weakness this year for Lane.
Vickie Spiekerman will run the
100 meter hurdles in regular
meet competition. Camee
Pupke will try the 400 intermediates after a season of
basketball with LCC, along
with Shannon O'Malley.
In the long jump, coach
Mike Yeoman is working with
Leslie White (h.j.) and Susie
Darby and Dawn Smoot in the
long jump. The jumps will be
another pivotal area in determining Lane's success, says
Wilken.

1886, following a shipwreck off the west coast of Africa, an infant
child became part of a family of apes who raised and protected him.
As he grew, he learned the laws of the jungle and eventually claimed
the title, Lord of the Apes.
Yet, years later, when he was returned to civilization, he would remain
uncertain as to which laws he should obey ... those of man ...
or those of the jungle.
Now, the director of "Chariots of Fire" captures this epic adventure
of a man caught between two different worlds.

behavior on campus and the
possible penalties which could
result from violations. It's a
prescription of each student's
rights to due process. And the
code can also serve as a way
for a student to•seek help during an "incident."

As Spring Term begins, the
season for ''incidents,'' defined by the college's chief security officer as "Behavioral problems, ~' begins as well.
LCC Security Manager Paul
Chase • sa}'s that for some
unknown reason tempers flare
more at this time of year. He
says about six major
behavioral problepis had occurred by the end of Winter
Term. In the ensuing heated
confrontations, fights, name
calling, and/or loud exchanges, there may be a need
for the students or the college
to invoke the procedures in the .
LCC Student Code.

"Physical abuse, hazing,
conduct which threatens imminent physical abuse, detention
and sexual harrassment'' are
classified as major offenses, as
is ''other verbal and physical
conduct which results in inhibition of constrained
academic interchange or
career advancement or creates
an intimidating, hostile or offensive epvironment for one of
the parties."

The Student Code is not one
of the most studied documents
on campus. lt's a c9mpilation
of pote~tial offenses to

When such an incident takes
place, the security staff will
gladly intervene at a student's
request, Chase says.

If a student has a "feeling
of being harrassed, '' as Chase
explains, but lacks evidence of
being harrassed, security officers may arrange an informal
meeting between the conflicting students and a security advisor to resolve the dispute.

If Security cannot resolve
the problem, or if a student
chooses to file an official complaint,
the Student Code
indicates that the college may
take official action.
(Editor,s note: This is the first
part of a two part series on
student behavior -- and
misbehavior -- and the Student
Code. Next week part two will
examine students, rights under
the code and how the college
administers it.)

' Crimes' haunt sisters
by Jackie Barry

TORCH Associate Editor

"Crimes of the Heart," a 1981 Pulitzer Prize winning play
written by 30 year old Beth Henley, will be presented by the
Oregon Repertory Theatre (ORT) from March 29 through
April 8 in the Soreng Theatre at the Hult Center for the Performing Arts.
Described by Publicity Coordinator Robyn Partridge as
"'humorous and tragic," the play's ·. activity revolves around
the three Magrath sisters who gather at their family home in
Hazelhurst, Mississippi and work out their private and public
crises. Babe, is out on bail after shooting her husband in the
stomach because she "didn't like his stinking looks;" Lenny is
despondent over her 30th birthday, unrequited love and
shrunken ovaries; and Meg is licking the wounds of her failing
career as a singer.
The three sisters are haunted by the memories of their
mother, Mama Magrath, who hung herself and her cat in the
basement because "she had a bad day, a real bad day."
ORT Director David Lunney invited Andrew Traister from
the Old Globe Theatre in San Diego to guest direct this production. Traister says he was a member of the ORT "family" in
the late 1970' s and is also a friend and colleague of the
playwright.
The cast includes Nancy Julian as Babe, Janet Steiger as
Lenny, Rebecca Proctor as Meg, with Janet McIntyre as
Chick, Portland actor Jack Ryan as Doc, and Mark Hughes as
Attorney Lloyd Barnette.
Jerry Williams designed the set for "Crimes of the Heart,"
Linda Sherman designed the costumes, and Paul Dustrud is
lighting designer.
''Crimes of the Heart'' will be presented in seven performances on March 29, 30, 31, April 5, 6, and 7 at 7:30 p.m. and
on Sunday, April 8 at 2 p.m. Tickets are available at the Hult
Center Box Office and area ticket outlets and by calling
687-5000. Ticket prices range from $8.50 and $10.50 for the
Thursday performances, to $10.50 and $12.50 for the Friday
and Saturday performances. Tickets for the Sunday matinee
will be $6.50 and $8.50.
