TORCH Editor

Next September a student from LCC and a
student from a junior college in Japan may
trade places and live and study at each other's
school.
LCC and Nagasaki Wesleyan Junior College
(NW JC) officials have completed an agreement
that will allow one student from each college to
attend the other college for one year, says Vice
President for Instruction Gerald Rasmussen.
Each institution will provide tuition scholarships to the exchange students, and assistance
with housing: The NWJC scholarship will cover
dormitory costs, while LCC's commitment is to
arrange for a host family which will provide
housing for the Japanese student.
The exchange student will be responsible for
his/her own transportation costs, books, food,
and miscellaneous expenses.
NWJC is located in the town of Isahaya, 15
miles outside of Nagasaki on the southern
island of Kyushu. Isahaya's population is
80,000.

NWJC was founded by Christian missionaries in 1881. The college is small -- about
150 students -- 80 percent of them women. The
faculty is composed of 12 full-time and about
30 part-time instructors, Rasmussen says. NW-

At NW JC, the LCC student will be expected
to complete 10 required courses (taught mostly
in English) and five electives (taught in .
Japanese). Requirements include Japanese
language courses in grammar, vocabulary, conversation and writing as well as ''culture''
courses; the cultural courses include flower arrangement, tea ceremony,and calligraphy.
The LCC exchange student will also be expected to work a maximum of 10 hours a week
as an English instructional assistant,
Rasmussen says.
Rasmussen has appointed a selection committee that will choose LCC's exchange student. He describes the new program as "a neat
opportunity" for _LCC students.
Knowledge of the Japanese language would
be "an advantage, but not a requirement" for a
student to be selected for the program. "As a
matter of fact, it would certainly be useful,'' he
says.
Rasmussen has scheduled a public meeting at
2:30 p.m on April 10 in the Board Room of the
Administration Building to explain the program and answer questions interested students
may have about it. Application forms will be
available at that time.

It's academics, not activities, at LCC
Commentary by Mike Green
TORCH Staff Writer

From all walks of life, people attend Lane Community
College with hopes of obtaining an education and forging a
better life. Housewives, construction workers, yes,
everyone from beekeepers to
undertakers are all part of
what is known as the "Student
Body." In all, 25,000 people
will attend LCC this year, and
in some way will have been a
part of campus life at LCC.
Psychologist Eric Berne,

who's
studied
group
dynamics, would have a field
day analyzing the LCC social
atmosphere. At first glance,
LCC appears to be a maze of
social structures with little
common ground. I wondered,
"Does anyone around here
have anything in common?"
But after some study, I suggest this theory: Place MWF
people in a separate category
from UH people, then divide
them further into 11 separate
catgories according to specific
majors. At that point the
social structure can be broken
down by determining how

many people are in each
building throughout the day.
And there we have LCC' s
social structure, according to
who is where at what time.
For example, there is the
MWF 11 a.m. cafeteria crowd,
the UH noon PE building
crowd, neither of which
should be confused with the 10
a.m. computer science crowd,
or the noon mechanics crowd,
which usually goes to the
cafeteria at 1 p.m.
Of course those are a lot of
crowds, and they seem very
different than those found on
other college campuses. Carla

Barton, a 20 year old second
year performing arts major,
transferred here from the
University of Oregon. She says
people are younger there, and
more into ·the social scene.
"People care more about what
other people think at the U of
0. LCC has a lot of older people who are just here to go to
school, and that's it." She insists LCC needs more activities
for the younger crowd, and
that these would lead to a better campus life.
OK, disregard the preceding
social theory. Let's put campus life into terms of age, involvement outside of school,
and interest in activites.
Chris Chisholm a 30 year
old broadcast major, is currently a mill worker who's
supporting two kids. "If an
activity was during the time
I'm here, I'd take part. But
after I leave I go to work and
don't have time for activities."
So this may be some
substantiation for the age/involvement theory, but how
can that be tied in with people's interest in activities?
"There's no way to have activities everyone will like,''
claims 21 year old business
major Carla Grandahl, "most

people I know want to go to
class and go home. All the
social interaction is done outside of school. LCC is strictly
an academic atmosphere."
What, for heaven's sake,
can be done for campus life at
LCC? "Have more activities," she suggests, "with
much more publicity. That's a
start.''
Then let's put it this way:
The campus life at LCC includes many groups -- people
under 30 who don't like to
dance, people over 30 who do
like to dance, people who have
jobs or families and are unable
to attend outside activities,
people who couldn't care less,
people who voted for George
McGovern, people, people,
and people. Now that's a lot
of different people.
Perhaps 18 year old business
major Cindy Payne says it
best. "People come from so
many different backgrounds
that it's hard to get everyone
together. It's like no one wants
to acknowledge anyone else's
interests. Maybe if everyone
would just stop and take the
time to take an interest in someone else our campus life
would be a lot closer knit, and
we wouldn't have to work to
create one."

What's so great about LCC?

Quality instruction is the major factor

by Chris Gann
TORCH Editor

Why all the Love Letters?
Each month the college
prepares an information
packet for the seven members
of the Board of Education and
the press. It's usually a stapled, half-inch thick collection
of staff reports, communications from the community,
and back-up material for the
monthly board meeting agenda.
And it always contains at
least a half dozen letters of appreciation to LCC. Many of
the letters, from business prof es si o nal s and educators,

Letters
What is a
Gene
Maudlin ?
To the Editor:

In response to the March 27,
Register-Guard editorial on "Why A
CUB?"
Do Oregon consumers -- people
who are busy in their daily lives just
trying to get by -- have the time to
understand or question why their utility bills are skyrocketing? Do one in
five people know who Gene Maudlin
is? Or that he's appointed by the
governor to ensure that regulated
utilities provide consumers with adequate service at reasonable rates while
allowing companies the opportunity to
earn a fair return on their investments?
: Oregon's system of utility regulation is unique. Where other states have
three- and five-member commissions
elected by those consumers they represent, Oregon has a single commissioner appointed by the governor, who
' is given broad authority to regulate
public utilities and transportation industries in the state.
However, the Eugene RegisterGuard thinks it ironic to see such support for a Citizen's Utility Board
(CUB) in Lane County, where the
voters chose to have direct control
over someone appointed by the governor. We find ourselves in a difficult
situation with the recent divestiture
and subsequent phone rate increases
under a recent PUC Order No. 83-835
(Dec. 21, 1983) by then-PUC Commissioner John Lobdell. In this order, he
instituted measured business service
and only after calling and writing
Senator Hatfield was I able to obtain
this and one other order, but who am
I? Just your average ratepaying consumer -- who is stuck as of Jan. 1,
1984 paying a $23.7 million revenue
increase to Pacific Northwest Bell!
I have some interesting questions
about PUC Order No. 83-835 that I

do

thank LCC staff members for
sponsoring a "well-run" or
"outstanding" seminar or
conference. Often, a handwritten note from a former
student is included in the mailing that says something like
this excerpt from a November
letter: "It is comforting and a
big help to many people to
have a resource like you
around.''
What is it about LCC that
elicits so many words of
praise? Is it the members of
the board and administrators
who carefully direct the college? Is it the high-tech, stateof-the-art equipment available
for students to train on? Is °it

the broad curriculum and
range of services LCC offers
to students and community
members? Or is it just a knack
for putting together a good
conference?
I imagine these are all important factors in LCC's
positive public image. But the
most important ingredient for
this image is the instruction
LCC students receive. Instruction -- you know, from
teachers.

think need to be answered before the
implementation of a Business
Measured Service as of July 1, 1984:
How many millions of dollars will
be passed on to voters through increased phone rates for those public
institutions (schools, libraries, police,
fire-rescue) whose community-based
interaction is a necessity?
PNB, a natural monopoly, is the
only phone company allowed to
operate in this LATA (geographical
area). How is this a competitive environment?
If a business doesn't want BMS,
what other choices besides disconnection does it have? What is meant by
business in Oregon?
Why are decisions made that affect
ratepayers and then public hearings
scheduled?
In this order, page 13 (next to last
paragraph), Lobdell states:
"No exemption should be made for
nonprofit associations. These associations are organized for many purposes, some of them for profit-making
motives. Virtually all of these
organizations may be worthy of an exemption, but the Legislature should be
the one to determine whether there
should be an exemption and just
which organizations should be exempted."
What are the names of those nonprofit organizations with profitmaking motives he refers to? What
proof did he offer to support his
statements? Who was he representing
in this order? Why did he resign right
after making these orders? Why do we
need a CUB in Oregon? Why don't we
just elect a public utility commission
to represent us instead? Who is Gene
Maudlin and what will he do in the
name of those he's supposed to represent?

the people at Lane. To those of you
who have not left your belongings
around places on this campus, I'd like
to congratulate your for being responsible with you valuables. You've missed the heartaches and frustrations that
"forgetful" folks like myself, have experienced. To you who could relate to
the theft experience, I sympathize with
you. To the minority of you who are
not sensitive to other's needs by taking
their belongings to satisfy your own
needs or pleasures, you've been causing a lot of pain and problems.
As a theft victim, I've experienced
anger, anxiety and disappointment.
Last year, a pair of my school pants
were taken from my unlocked locker.
I had no idea that someone would actually steal them. Last term, I left my
umbrella in one of the cubby holes in
the book store. When I came back, it
was gone ...

Thefts cause
heartache,
frustration
To the Editor:
I'd like to address this letter to all of

Teachers are rarely described as "high tech" or
"state-of-the-art." Rarely do
they make million dollar decisions. But their product, quali-

By now, you'd think I would have
learned to be more careful. Unfortunately, I found myself in similar
situation again. On the first day of
school, I left my wallet in the women's
restroom on the 2nd floor of the
Center Building. The wallet
mysteriously disappeared, then reappeared two days later. I thank the
unknown thief for having some consideration to return part of the wallet.
I had hoped she would have the heart
to return the wallet and everything in
it, but much was taken out. The stolen
articles were money, a bus pass and
pictures. I had approximately $40 in
cash. All of it was stolen. This really
hurts becasue it was to be used for
groceries for my family of 16 people ..
The people who steal obviously do
not have respect for other folks nor do
they care about the damages they
could cause ...
Please think twice before you commit theft. Most of the students at LCC
are not well off. They have needs like
yourself. Many students have to pay
for their own education, therefore
money is a scarcity ... In some cases, it
may not just affect the owner of the
item.
Finally, you respon~ible people can
help prevent theft problems by returning lost items to Security or to a closeby department.

rules of thumb to save ourselves from
thefts:
• Never leave our things unattended.
• Get lockers and lock them up.
• Never carry valuable items such as
money (a large amount), jewelry to
school.
• Follow signs such as "lock your
lockers" or "take your things to stall"
• Respect others by returning found
items.
Little kids steal because they don't
know any better. They think of
themselves and don't realize their
stealing could hurt someone else. You,
the thieves, are adults, you should
know better. As we grow up, we need
to give up our childish ways. Come on
"kids", grow up.

Piled higher
and deeper
To the Editor:

Hello, my name is Paul Nevin. I
graduated from LCC in 1978, I would
like to suggest a political problem for
all community college graduates.
Employers don't care what someone
knows, employers just want a paper
saying four, six or eight years of college. I have been attending college for
11 years, yet I don't qualify for a piece
of paper that says that I have gone
more than two years.
The reason companies in the
"system" want more than a two year
paper? For knowledge? No. They
want the paper so they are justified
when they charge more for their products and services to their customers-you. This separates the haves from the
have-nots.
Look at your own city, county, and
state governments. Years ago, they
started to copy the federal government
in "hoodwinking" the public into
thinking government employees are
better than the rest of us.

So reward some of the
quality that special instructor
gives to you each day -- pick
up a green form from any instructional department office
and nominate that instructor
by April 14.
As you recall most of our past
"great" leaders never went to any college. Many hardly went to school.
Many of our present House and
Senate leaders never went to college
for a legitimate college degree. They
paid their home town college to
"honor" them with a Phd. (piled
higher and deeper) degree.
Look at the Eugene City Council;
many do not hold legitimate degrees,
yet their own rules expect that all new
city employees have degrees.
I want to ask you current students a

Student government means you

ASLCC is a joke if you want it that way

by Cindy Weeldryer

ASLCC Senator

"Student government is a joke,
it's a waste of time to vote."
During last year's ASLCC election I heard this comment voiced
many times in many different ways.
"Why bother, I'm not going to be
here next year so I don't care who
wins." This was another frequent
response when I asked students to
vote. Student apathy is nothing new
to LCC, being a commuter school
there are many students interested
only in going to classes and going

home. Often LCC students have
families and/or jobs which prevent
them from getting involved in extracurricular activites. The ASLCC
fills the gap and provides student
representation, services, and programs for all LCC students.
The Associated Students of Lane
Community College is you -- the student who pays the $3 mandatory student fee (MSF) each term to fund
ASLCC programs and services. The
ASLCC Senate is a group of
students elected by the student body
to administer the funds generated by
the MSF. To some people this is the
only function of the Senate, to
others it is a major responsibility but
not the sole function, and to a majority of students, the Senate is only
a lesson in "sandbox politics" and
has little influence or power to
change things at LCC.
Student government does have the
potential to be influential at Lane.
The Senate is an elected legislative
body that represents the entire student population, regardless if every
student votes or not, the numbers
alone indicate a certain degree of
power. The ASLCC budget of

$75,000 also gives student government a substantial amount of influence.
Money is not the key issue needed
to create a representative body; student needs and concerns should be
the main focus in the upcoming spring elections. The Senate should
continue to strive for sound fiscal
handling of its budget and should
make it a priority to give LCC
students the best buy for their investment. In addition, the Senate needs
to continue to voice student concerns to the Administration. While
the ASLCC cannot create sweeping
changes in administrative policy, it
can let its influence be know.n in
such areas as curriculum design,
teacher evaluations, textbook prices,
and food services' quality and cost.
The Senate should improve the flow
of information between the Administration and the students.
If changes cannot be made, at
least an understanding of why things
are the way they are can be effectively communicated. The ASLCC is influential because it represents LCC
students -- the very reason for the
college's existence.

ed or offer solutions in th~ beginning. Hindsight is always 20-20!
Elections can be an enjoyable learning experience in the democratic
process, past ASLCC elections have
proved this. Recently, however,
poorly run ASLCC elections have
created distrust and paranoia among
many students. This year's Senate
has strived to improve its election
methods by rewriting the ambiguous
election By-Laws, numbering the
ballots, holding earlier elections to
allow more time to utilize the improved grievance procedure should
violations occur. It's now up to you
-- the LCC student -- to read the
TORCH and Voter's Pamphlet and
talk to the candidates about these
issues. Avoid voting blindly and,
worse yet, asking a student poll
worker who's the best candidate.

One other area of student government influence is in the local, state,
and national elections. The ASLCC
has the ability to provide vital information about candidates and issues
by providing literature in the Student Resource Center and by inviting candidates to speak at LCC.
The potential influence of the
ASLCC next year depends largely on
LCC students enrolled this term.
Many students are graduating this
spring and have a good idea of what
the student needs are at Lane. They
can leave behind a legacy of effective
student government, should they
elect to vote this month. The
students who will be here next year
owe it to themselves to determine
what issues are important, read candidate's platforms and ask- questions.

Student government is only a joke
when LCC students make it a joke.
If you care about your financial aid,
and rising college costs it would be
wise to create a student government
that will utilize its potential to be a
strong, decisive, and influential
voice at LCC. Ultimately, student
government is the student body.

Beware of candidates who are
quick to criticize current ASLCC
programs and services without offering / easible solutions to the problems. Armchair quarterbacks
readily offer solutions to situations
after the outcomes are known. They

Bikers get

bad press
To the Editor:

In response to Mary Lemon's letter
of March 1, I'd like to say I'm glad she
had a good time at the Rhody Run last
year, and thank you for the message
about us, uh, "bikers."
But why do you suppose that she
and her friend were afraid at just the
thought of, uh, "bikers"? They had
"heard" bad things about them, but
did not really know if any of these
things were true. Well, it's not hard to

understand where these ideas might
have come from . There have been
small groups of people who have caused trouble, and displayed behavior
that others found repugnant. The
main source of transportation for
most of these people was by motorcycle. Media stories, splashed with sensationialism, gave the accounts more
press than they deserved, but then
what's new? I doubt if these people
were ever even one percent of the
motorcycling population in this country.
So why do people continue to be
frightened of the, uh, "biker"?
Villans are frequently needed for the
exciting worlds created in Hollywood
for our entertainment. But how are we
to identify villans of the rape, rob, and

pillage variety, if they look like you or
me? Give them black leather jackets
and motorcycles, and we spot them
right away. So frequent is this picture,
that I get the feeling viewers must be in
agreement with it, for there are certainly not many complaining against
it. But just think of the outcry if the
typical negative image was a black,
Jewish, lesbian, capitalist, business executive. So what we are seeing is a
bigoted distortion of a minority within
a minority.

reports of other athletes, whose upper
lips it seems were dusted with cocaine.
These few examples should serve to
remind us of distinguishing responsible, objective reporting, and stories
biased with emotional appeal and sensationialism. Our thoughts should also
be so tempered. Motorcyclists are
friends, neighbors, relatives. Someone
you know rides a motorcycle.
Now if I could only convince my
mother I am not a neophyte Hell's
Angel.

KLCC's
semi-annual
BUCK-A-WATT Radiothon
will begin on Saturday, April
14 at 6 p.m. during the
Blackberry Jam program.
Friendly volunteers are
needed to answer the phone
and take pledges. No experience is necessary according
to Promotions Director Denny
Guehler who says they're
looking for "anyone that can
talk on the phone and write.''
KLCC will conduct the
Radiothon during its standard
broadcast hours which are 6

a.rn. to 1:30 a.m. seven days a

projected goal of $30,000 is
reached which is expected to
take seven to ten days. KLCC
has earmarked $5,000 of this
sum to go towards replacing
their aging transmitter which
is "on its last legs," according
to Development Director
Paula Chan-Gallagher.
Interested persons can sign

As a result, he plans no
changes in the format. Program Director Ken Martin
says that DJ Dave Numme will
be taking over Martin's duties
as music director.
By May 1, KZEL will be
moved into a newly remodelled facility at 2100 West 11th
(the old Medical Service~
Building) -- creating what Pappas claims will be the largest
radio facility in the country
(12,000 square feet).
Two production rooms and
the broadcast booth will be
visible to passing motorists
who will be able to wave to
their favorite DJ's. According
to Pappas, radio stations
KBOS in Visalia/Fresno and
KJOY in Stockton use this
type of promotions technique
with great success and no pro-

blems. This is one of several promotional "improvements"
which will make KZEL more
"visible" according to Promotions Manager John Pappas,
who is Mike's son. "Eugene
will be proud of the new,
modern KZEL facility,'' adds
the father.
Mike Pappas began his
communications career 30
years ago at the age of 16 as a
co-host, with his twin brother,
of a San Joaquin Valley radio
show called "Pete and Mike's
Dance Time.''
After a four year break for
college and the Marine Corp,
Pappas became sales manager,
station manager and, subsequently, general manager of
numerous radio stations in the
Western United States and
Hawaii.
At the age of 27, he became
president of Pappas Electronics, a family business that
built five radio and two television stations and had
''numerous
other
investments.''
Pappas sold some of his
California interests and took a
four and a half year vacation.
He then began researching for
new markets and learned of
KZEL's availability.
KBDF still broadcasts at
1280 on the AM dial but the
call letters have been changed
to KYKN and the format is
now country music instead of
all news. Constant Communication moved KYKN's
studios to the historic
Mathews House in Coburg,
which also houses KDUK.
KYKN will broadcast the remainder of the Portland Trail
Blazer games.

Nobel Laureate keynotes Fair
by Ed Bishop

TORCH Staff Writer

The value of global sharing
will be a recurring theme at
this year's Earth Fair '84.
Several speakers of international distinction will be
featured at LCC during the
April 16-20 Earth Week ac-

tivities.
Topping the list is the recipient of two Nobel prizes,
Linus Pauling, a native Oregonian who rose to prominence
in the field of chemistry at an
early age by making several
essential discoveries about the
nature of matter. Dr. Pauling
will speak at noon Wednes-

Students and faculty
are concert perfect

Groups of individual
musical performances entitled
"Segues" will be presented by
LCC performing arts students
again this term.
"Segues," which were
started in 1975 by music instructor Dr. Barbara Myrick,
are so named because each
separate performer is immediately followed by
another.
The performances vary
from classical piano solos to
jazz rock fusion ensembles
with upcoming events including Julie Larsen playing a
piano piece entitled "Reverie"
and Robin Murphy performing Dan Fogelberg's song,
"Looking for a Lady."
Performing Arts students as
well as instructors are encouraged to attend and provide feedback for the performers. Performers acquire
stage deportment and the audience learns how to be
perceptive and respectful, as
well.
The next progression on the
performance ladder for the
student might be as a member
of the Symphonic Band, the
Chamber Choir or the Jazz
Band.
"Segues" has a different
faculty supervisor each year
with this year's supervisor being Wayte Kirchner.
Performances will be held
on Wednesdays April 11, May
9, and May 23 at 4 p.m. There
is no admission charge.
The LCC music faculty will
present the last in a series of
three concerts this season on
Thursday, April 5, at 8 p.m.
The concert -- free of charge -will be held in the Blue Door
theatre downstairs in the LCC
Performing Arts building.
Saxophonist Tom Bergeron
will ·open the concert with a
performance of the Sonata by
Bernhard Heiden. Marybeth
Wilde, pianist, will then play
Chopin's Nocturne, op. 27,
no. 2, in D-flat Major, said by

Schumann to be "one of the
most
heartfelt
and ·
transfigured creations'' in
music.
A celebrated piece by
Michio Miyagi, founder .of the
New Japanese Music movement, will foliow. Written for
koto (a zither-like instrument)
and
shakuhachi
flue
(end-blown,
bamboo),
"Spring Sea" will be performed by John Jarvie on guitar
and Barbara Myrick on baroque flute. They will also play
Leonard Handler's 1982 Suite.
Next,
pianist Joyce
Cameron will play the Sonata
in B-flat Major, composed in
Paris by Wolfgang Amadeus
Mozart when he was in his early twenties. The concert will
conclude with a performance
of J .S. Bach's Cantata "Non
sa che sia do lore," sung by
soprano Diana Jackson. A
secular piece, this cantata expresses the contrasting sorrow
and joy of his friends when a
university student must leave
school to return home.
Jackson is accompanied by an
ensemble of flute, strings, and
harpsichord.

Former semi-pro could add punch to LCC baseball
Feature by Mike Green
TORCH Staff Writer

Combine athletic talent with
dedication, and most likely the
result will be a successful
athlete. Add humility, subtract arrogance and behold a
successful human being.
LCC baseball player Tim
Riles is a mixture of all the
right ingredients, and an
allegory of dreams, responsibility, and changing
priorities.
Before graduating from
Springfield High School in
1982, Riles compiled awards
and honors in three sports.
Among those: 5AAA 1st team
all_-league defensive back
(football), 5AAA 2nd team
quarterback
all-league
(football), 5AAA 3rd team allleague (basketball), 5AAA 1st
team second base (baseball),
1st team all-leaj!;ue golden

glove (baseball), and second
base all-state Shrine game.
'' At that time I really
wanted to make a career of
either basketball or baseball,''
he admits. "My dad played
semi-pro for the White Sox,
and he was always there to encourage me. I guess it was kind
of a dream we both shared."
As time for summer league
baseball grew near, Riles was
contacted by two scouts, Bill
Harper from the Philadelphia
Phillies, and Norm King from
the Milwaukee Brewers.
"I eventually decided to attend the Milwaukee camp,''
says Riles. "We played every
day, so we got a lot of practice.'' During the summer,
Riles was placed on one of the
Brewers' Canadian farmclubs. He spent the entire summer in Canada, while Oregon
colleges were giving scholarships to players from the sum-

semi-pro, but when the league
ended its season in the fall I
would still have to go to college.''
Because he wasn't around,
Riles missed out on major college scholarships, and elected
to follow his farm-club coach

to Umpqua Community College, where the Brewer coach
also taught and eoached. "I
decided that it was the best
place to be at the time. I
played basketball as well as
baseball, but by the end of the
year I was ready to make the
switch to Lane.''

In an age when athletes are
quick to emphasize their own
ability, Riles speaks of the
ability of others. "I respect
each guy on the team, and I
believe if we play to our potential we will place first in our
league. We've got a lot of
talent on our team." That's
refreshing coming from a
player who might have taken
Milwaukee to the World
Series.

Lane shows strength

by Dennis Monen

TORCH Sports Editor

Both the men and women
on Lane's track and field
teams had their first
NWAACC victory Saturday,

Riles' talent is an asset to a
strong LCC baseball program.
He leads the team in five offensive categories, including
eight RBI's in only seven
games. He maintains a whopping .455 batting average.
"He is a valuable player,"
comments Coach Fisher, "he
does a good job defensively,
he can bunt, run, and makes
few mental or physical
mistakes. He always gives 110
percent and his enthusiasm is
contagious to the other
players.''

Souder led the tempo, hurling

chucked the discus 126.1 1/2
feet. Thomas made her sweeps
in the I 00 meter sprint,
finishing at 12.9 and jetted

27 .0. LCC scored 80 points;
MHCC 41 and UCC 25.

"No," he replies, "my
family comes first, and there's
no way I could take care of
them going from farm-club to
farm-club in the circuit. I will
play baseball forever, but it
will be strictly for enjoyment."

His remarkable .426 batting
average slipped to .250, and
his GP A, which he had maintained throughout high
school, slipped as well.
"We played Lane last year,
and I got to see a lot of the
people I had played in 5AAA,
and I thought about how
much fun we could have,'' he
reflects. "Also I wanted to
play with a good shortstop,
and Adam Smith was one of
the best I had seen. Plus the
fact that I was getting kind of
homesick.'' Riles contacted
Lane Baseball Coach Bobby
Fisher about the switch, and
Fisher was more than happy to
accommodate him.
Since coming to LCC, Tim
has done a lot of growing up,
and reorganized his priorities.
He married and became a
father -- responsibilities that
required Tim to change his
goals.
'' I've got a family to think
about now, so my priorities
have definitely changed.
Baseball is just a tool to get me
through college, but school is
first.'' Tim is studying
physical education, and wants
to coach and teach PE in Lane
County. But would he pack up
and chase his dreams if
Milwaukee offered him a contract?

Student
Code
operates
with due
process
by J.W. Camp
TORCH Staff Writer

(Editor's note: This is the second part of a two-part story
explaining the LCC Student
Code. Part one focused upon
the kinds of conduct that
might warrant invoking the
code.)
In Fall 1983 and Winter
1984 terms at LCC, 10 minor
violations of the Student Code
were brought to the attention
of Vice President for Student
Services, Jack Carter. And he
believes that the process
outlined in the code worked
efficiently.
He says the goal of the code
is to identify what constitutes
proper conduct on campus
and to clarify what a student's
rights are if he/she is accused
of being in violation of the
code.
Due Process

• When Carter receives a
complaint alleging that a
violation has occurred, he
notifies the accused student by
mail or in person to attend a
conference with him. The
notification states the nature
of the complaint, the nature of
the evidence to be presented,
and the identity of each
witness who will speak against
the accused. It also informs
the student of his/her right to
legal
counsel,
crossexamination of witnesses and
appeals.
• But in the event that Carter
determines a major violation is
alleged, he notifies the accused
student that a hearing will be
officiated by Henry Douda,
director of employee relations.
Only two major violations
have required a hearing process in the last decade.
Hearing's findings against a
student, or disciplinary action
taken by the college affecting
his/her continued enrollment
at LCC, may be appealed, says
Carter.
