Dean of Instruction Gerald Rasmussen spoke at the all-staff
meeting on enrollment decline.

What About Next Year?

In an all-staff meeting on

Wednesday,
Jan.
23,
Rasmussen and other vice
presidents discussed ways of
handling reductions in next
year's budget. Voluntary
retirements or voluntary
reductions in teaching load
and assignents were mentioned
as possible solutions.
Rasmussen said in an earlier
interview that all reductions
will be handled "humanely."

First-come/_first served

The essential fact is:
"Students have to apply early
because funds are limited and
are awarded on a firstcome/first-served basis,"
states Waddell.

...,_illilliio,i......,...,.~

• Then, low enrollment caused the cancellation of some of
those classes that the college
scheduled, forcing further
part-time faculty cuts.
But Rasmussen told the
TORCH this week that the administration's budget analysis
indicates LCC can balance its
budget this academic year, and
there will be no cut-backs in
full-time faculty.
And in a s~parate interview
this week, Dixie MaurerClemons, president of the
LCC Education Association,
confirmed there has been no

Meeting the March 1 cut-off

student's chances to get the

"Only if the FAF is mailed

She acknowledges, however,
that if an application were

at 9:30 p.m. Aug. 31 to

The mother had arbitrarily
decided that her children could

LCC students receive award

Editor's Note: This story appeared in last week's Torch
with a number of errors, so
we're running it again this
week, in its entirety.

Two first year students at
LCC, Shannon Trucke and
Natalin Goodrich, received the
OLCC Citizenship Recognition Award "for outstanding
public service in preventing
alcohol abuse" at a special
. ceremony held in Portland on
Dec. 8, 1984.
The award recognized their
efforts in organizing and
maintaining Concerned High
School Student's Alternative
to Drugs, a program designed
to increase awareness about
alternatives to drugs.
The two first became interested in creating the program after viewing the film
''Th.e Chemical People'' in
a health class -- which
presented examples of drug
dependant children.
Their concern led them to
propose organizing a group to
improve awareness of the drug
and alcohol abuse problems at
Churchill High School.
Many teachers and staff
members didn't believe there
was any "real" drug use problem and pressed the girls for
statistics to back up their idea.
Trucke and Goodrich
estimated 85 percent of their
fell ow students had either used
or thought of using some type
of drug.
A teacher that was present
at this meeting had one of his
leadership class students do a
survey to . either prove or
disprove this estimate. Using

Dr. Fred Loveys brings diversity as new leader of P .E. Dept.

'' I decided to come to Lane
because it is a college that's
forward-looking and concerned about its community services,'' said Loveys with his
British accent.
Loveys, born and raised in
England, graduated from Oxford University in 1963. He
then taught high school
physical education in Swindon, England for six years.
The adventurous Loveys
decided to attend the University of Oregon in 1970, where he
received his doctorate in
Physical Education Administration, and taught • a
rock climbing, cave dwelling
class (his favorite hobbies).
"A friend of mine from Oxford (a rock climber) attended
the U of O a year before me
and painted a pretty picture of
it."
In 1976 Loveys became
coordinator of the Lifetime
Sports Programs at Old Dominion University in Virginia, a
post he held for the next four
years until accepting a job at
New York State University/College at Old Westbury
in 1980 to open the school's
first physical education facility.
"After four years at NYSU ,,
the program reached its
plateau, and I completed what
I set out to do," said Loveys.
"I then saw Lane as an oppor: tunity to return to Eugene. I
had spent six years here and
enjoyed it."
Loveys, the rock climber,
was anxious to return to the
Oregon area, after being
surrounded only by the mountainous skyscrapers on Long
Island.
But in addition to outdoor
activities, computer education

learning is where it's at now,"
says Loveys. ''Video feedback
and computer analysis is the
norm .... I would like to introduce an individualized
computer class at Lane."
And computers aren't the
only change on Lovey's agenda. "A whole array of services
is what we're all about."
Loveys feels that the school
has an obligation to work with
the community and make its

facilities open to the public.
He feels the intramural program is a place to start.
''We also have to look at
our Physical Education curriculum and redefine what our
requirements should be," said
Loveys. Referring to society's
growing interest in health care
and body conditioning.
'' I am also taking steps to
define our school's sports
teams' excellence. This is only
our second year in the
(Northwest
NWAACC
Athletic Association of Community Colleges), and we've
shown that we're competitive,
but the greater number of
Washington schools creates
large travel expenses and we
have to put a handle on it."
Loveys also feels that Lane
needs to publicize the school's
sports image and, "have
stronger articulation with
four-year schools."
''We have such a sportsminded city. We have to be
more than superficial,'' said
Loveys. "We need to define
our image and tell about our
successes. We need a full-time
sports information director.''
Lane currently has a part-time
S.I.D working voluntarily.
"What the department was

last year and before was old

new
'change'," said Loveys. "We
have to manage that change by
solving our department's

budget problems, upgrade
physical education services to
students, have a greater community outreach, and work
closely with the other departments on campus."

Career Talks

The Career Talks for Winter Term focus on emerging careers. On Feb. 19,
at 3 p.m. in Forum 309, Dr. Doug White, head of LCC's Health Ocupations
Department, will discuss "Health Careers: A healthy decision." Dr. White
will also discuss emerging health careers, LCC's health occupations programs, and similar programs at other Oregon colleges and unversities.

Electronics Dept gets temporary head

by Ellen Platt

TORCH Associate Editor

John Winquist, formerly an
LCC counselor and CWE
coordinator, has been appointed temporary head of the
Electronics Department.
He replaces long-time
Department Head Darwin Mccarroll, who retired December
31. McCarroll's retirement
followed criticism of the Electronics Department by the
Visiting Team of the Northwest Association of Schools
and Colleges (NASC) during
its re-accreditation analysis
this fall.
Winquist says Mccarroll
was close to retirement and
was reluctant to commit
himself to the long-term process of restructuring the
department.
The NASC report recommended the Electronics
Department update its equipment, curriculum, and the
knowledge of its instructional
staff in the latest technology.
Winquist says the report
"wasn't the only reason we
had, but it spurred us into ac-

tion" to rework the curriculum.
In fact, Winquist notes that

found work in the Portland
area, he adds.
But Winquist' s plan is to
guide the development of a
new curriculum, using a twofold approach which will support local industry, and attract
new high technology firms to
the area.
He says, "The biggest part
of this job will be convincing
the Board and the President to
put the money here (in Electronics training).''
Citing an Oregon Employment Division analysis of occupational trends in Oregon

predicts very high employment

representation when the college considers whether to ask
voters to approve a special
Serial Budget levy to buy needed equipment.
To analyze the current electronics industry needs and the
existing electronics training
programs in the area, Winquist says three ''Emerging
Technology Task Forces" will
gather information.
At the college level, LCC
administrators, faculty and
classified staff will study curriculum needs and development; in the Lane County
area, a group composed of
educators and business
representatives will contact

local businesses and the local
•high schools to develop better
curriculum continuity; and at
the state level, a task force will
visit and work with industry to
determine the types of training
that will be useful to potential
employees in high technology
industries which Winquist
hopes will be attracted to the
area.
A nationwide search for a
permanent department head
will begin soon. Winquist,
who has had experience in curriculum development, says
he'll be outlining the program,
but its implementation will be
the job of the new department
head.

seven.' Don't despair, that's
good!
A new league rule, put into
effect this season, states that
the NBA's 'magnificent seven'
will draw to coordinate the
, order of the league's top seven
college draft picks. In the past,
the two bottom teams in each
conference flipped a coin to
see which picked first.
what?
know
You
Georgetown University's
Patrick 'The Franchise' Ewing
is going to be available in this
year's draft. In fact, as sure as
the sun sets in the west, he'll
be picked numero uno.
What am I getting at? The
Blazers must lose the rest of
their games, or, at least, continue their hold in the
'magnificent seven', and kiss
this_ season goodbye. Then get
a shot at 'The Franchise.'
Why settle for mediocrity?
In today's sports, you either
win the division crown, or you
draft a charismatic rookie that
brings in the fans. i.e.
Chicago's Michael Jordan. (A
player the Blazers passed up in
last year's draft.)
Sorry folks. The 'Big Trade'
that sent Portland's Calvin
Natt, Fat Lever, Wayne
Cooper, and two draft picks to

Denver in exchange for Kiki
Vandeweghe isn't panning
out. (As quick as anticipated
anyway.)
The Blazers have a dime's
chance on a Skid Row
sidewalk of making it past the
NBA playoff's first round.
A 'Twin Towers' front line
of Sam Bowie and Pat Ewing
-- similar to Houston's Ralph
Sampson and Akeem Ola-

juwan -- is just what the doctor ordered for the Blazers.
Unfortunately, the same

Mychal

mediocrity, and slip into the

If the Blazers can't give us

Cagers' injuries mount
by Ron Gullberg

TORCH Sports Editor

LCC's Liz Turner pumped
in 25 points and pulled down
15 rebounds, but it wasn't
enough as Lane's women's
basketball team fell to
Chemeketa Saturday, Jan. 20,
69-61.
The Titans have now lost
three-in-a-row and are fifth in
the Region IV standings. (The
top four teams enter the playoffs.)
But Lane Head Coach Sue
Thompson hasn't pushed the
panic button yet. "We've had
some injury problems.
We had only eight players

Clackamas tops Lane

Three Clackamas guards
combined for 67 points, and
displayed exceptional ball
skills, vaulting the cougars
past Lane Wednesday, Jan.
16, 88-74.
The high-scoring Cougar
guards -- led by JoAnne Ineman, who scored 57 points in
a g'1me against Lower Columbia in December -- were,
"very, very quick," according
to Lane Coach Sue Thompson. "They're probably three
of the best guards in the
league."

and doctors thought Christie
Viltz needed her appendix
removed, but now is believed
to have an abdominal illness.
"That was a factor," said
Thompson, referring to the
team's key injured players.
Lane ended the first half
leading Chemeketa 33-29, by
hitting 15 of 23 shots, (62 percent), from the field.
But in the second half,
Lane's depleted squad was
outscored 40-28, despite
shooting 53 percent.
Julie Zeller, Chemeketa's 6'

University, was the difference
in the game. Zeller poured in
25 points and collected nine rebounds to lead the Chieftans.

Dee Vinberg chipped in 14

Thompson felt Clackamas'

Hoopsters face
an uphill battle
by Darren Foss

TORCH Sports Writer

LCC's men's basketball
team played like a winner
last week, but came up on
the short end of the score,
losing two league games by
a total of three points.
The Titans' van stopped
in Oregon City Wednesday,
Jan. 16, where they took on
the Clackamas Cougars and
lost, 60-59.
Once again Lane was
plagued by fouls. They were
called for 21, while the
Cougars only collected 13.
Free throws were critical, as
Clackamas connected on 20
of 25 from the charity

The Titans were at home
Saturday, Jan. 19, and fac- .
ed the league leading
Chemeketa - Chieftans, but
lost a heartbreaker, 63-61.

Lane took control of the
first half, leading by thirteen at one point, 32-19,
before the Chiefs cut the
margin to 39-33 by
halftime.
Chemeketa evened the
game in the second half, as
each team exchanged the
lead many times before the
Chiefs converted a key
three point play to take a
62-59 lead with 1:52 remaining. Lane's Jerome
Johnson hit a jump shot

stripe, while Lane only
made three of four.
Ironically, the one Lane
missed could have tied the
game.
The Titans led at half,
31-27, and continued to
lead until the end of the
game, as the Cougars grabbed a 58-57 advantage, due
mainly to Titan turnovers.
Lane, however, still had a
chance when Kevin Bloom
stepped up to the free throw
line with six seconds left,
but missed. Lane then fouled and the Cougars missed
the one and one, giving the
Titans' Kevin Leonard a
chance to put them ahead,
but he missed a 20 footer at
the buzzer.
Jerome Johnson led Lane
in scoring with 15 points,
while Leonard added 14.

Lane's next home games: Friday, Feb. 1, 6 and 8 p.m.

Standings

with 29 seconds on the
clock to cut the lead to one.
Lane then fouled and
the Chiefs hit only one of
two free throws, and with
only eight seconds left, the
Titans found themselves in
another barn burner. With
a chance to send the game
into overtime, Johnson put
up a 15-footer at the horn,
but it wouldn't drop.
Johnson led the Titans,
scoring 24 points and collecting 12 rebounds, while
Bloom added 12 points.
"We're playing very
good basketball, but we've
had three games where the
teams haven't beaten us
really. We've outplayed
them and really deserve to
win, but don't have enough
points at · the end,'' said
Lane Coach Dale Bates.

defense,'' said Bates.
Lee, who was kicked off his
high school team for personal
reasons, is grateful for the second chance Bates has given
him. '' After I was kicked off
my high school team, many
other colleges shied away, but
Coach Bates gave me the
chance to play.''
Bates sees a well-rounded
player in Lee. ''He (Lee)
makes a pretty good positive
contribution since he doesn't
make too many fouls, and
doesn't turn the ball over. He
knows his limitations and tries
to avoid and hide his
weaknesses.''
Early in the season, though,
Lee had to dedicate a lot of
mental work toward Bates'
system. "In the beginning it
was kind of slow (learning
Bates' coaching style), but
now I'm in the starting line-up
and getting a lot more playing
time."

meaningful had to come along
to get me off the farm,'' said
Spacek recently, who was content to be a wife and mother
on her West Virginia farm until the script for "The River,"
was delivered to her. "It (the
movie) is about people rising
to an occasion, and since I've
had Schuyler (her child) I've
begun to understand as a
mother a new level of the
meaning of family." In "The
River,'' she does everything
from making bread to driving
a tractor, and in between offers her husband a lot of much
needed support. "The River,"

is truly another -triumph for
Sissy Spacek.
The Garveys are believable,
and as an audience we become so intimately involved with
them, we can't help but feel
part of their emotions, and
hope that somehow they'll
make it. And when they face
their bouts with both man and
nature, they have us all in their
corner.
"The River," is rated
PG-13, due to a few mildly
graphic scenes and some
swearing. It's overall theme,
however, makes it a great film
for families.

by Richard Ho

Jeanne Hubbard, an assistant in the program, asked the
customers on Thursday, Jan.
17, for their reaction to the
wallpaper and she said that
"everyone loved the wallpaper
and the 'open' feeling."
Plaa says students have contributed something to the
Renaissance Room each year
out of their Food Service Club
funds, and the wallpaper was
the contribution for this
academic year. Past contributions have included pieces of
equipment and the signboard
on the outside of the
restaurant, Plaa added.
In addition to the
wallpaper, the new image of
the Renaissance Room also includes some watercolors by
Pat Renwick, who also teaches
watercolor painting, and oil
paintings by Arden Schafer, a
Food Service program student. The paintings are for
sale and prices range from $40
to $100.
Hubbard is hoping that
''the new image will draw in
more people',-, while Plaa is
pleased with the new image
because it looks ''more like a
restaurant now.''

Renaissance Room gets
new, 'open feeling'

TORCH Staff Writer

The Renaissance Room has
finally come out of the dark
ages.
That's the way Bob Cormier
puts it. A first year Food Service Management Program
student, Cormier is referring
to the new image that the
student-run restaurant has attained since Dec. 14.
In place of the • dark
wallpaper -- that had been
there since the opening of the
Renaissance Room -- is a
brighter, beige paper that the
students paid for out of their
own Food Service Club
money. The club saves the
gratuities student waiters
receive from restaurant and
catering patrons.
The Food Service Program
students paid $358 for the
paper, and seven of them took
the time, at the end of last
term, to hang it up, under the
supervision of one student's
mother, a wallpaper specialist.
Guy Plaa, an instructor in
the program, felt that the new
decor ''took off the oppressing feeling" that the former
wallpaper had.

The philosophy behind
presenting financial aid information in workshop form is
simple: "We feel we can give
better, more complete, more
accurate information when we
deal with students in groups
than when we deal with them
one-to-one at the front
counter,'' explains Waddell.
Financial Aid staff members
are available and will assist individual students at the
workshops.
What occurs at a Financial
Aid Workshop, as explained
by Waddell is:
• "Walking" the student
through the application form,
highlighting the trouble spots
wh~re, traditionally, students
make errors, and simplifying
the difficult areas.
• Explaining all the programs for which funds are
available, and assisting the individual student in applying
for the programs that pertain
to him/her.
• Explaining all the steps in
the financial aid process:
What happens after the FAF is
completed and mailed; what
additional information, if any,

processors, etc.

• Explaining what will determine whether a student gets
financial aid or not -- eligibility criteria such as: Financial
reenrollment
need,
quirements, satisfactory progress, time frame completion
requirements, etc.
If a form is completed incorrectly, even with what may
seem to be a minor error or
it is put "on
om1ss1on,
hold" in the central office in
Berkeley. Then the Berkeley
office must correspond with
the student, requesting the
missing data. A delay of this
sort will hold up processing
and "blow" the student's
chance of being in the first
priority group, says Waddell.

Who Should Apply
For Financial Aid?

''I would suggest that
students apply for financial
aid if they feel they have a
need -- need is one criteria -but there are a multitude of
other criteria for eligibility,"

difficulty affording to go to
school, then it would be a worthwhile 'gamble', you might
call it, or an investment, to
pay the $7 or $8 processing
fee," and apply. "It is better
to take that risk and find out
that you don't qualify than
not to, and find out that you
could have.''
