LCC has scheduled special events to celebrate National Community College Month.

ASH Inc. objects to
Night classes ignored
request by colleges
by Tony DeBates
f<>r the TORCH

At a time when LCC's enrollment is declining, the college isn't paying enough attention
to evening programs, insist many of the
eleven members of the resurrected Evening
Program Advi~ory Committee (EPAC).
And the administrator for evening classes,
F. Lynn Richmond, says that past studies indicate a potential student body of 45,000 Lane
County residents could be served in the
evenings.
At the Feb. 5 EPAC meeting, committee
members said they need to find a way to gain
more support from LCC administrators, particularly the new Vice President for Instruction, Jacquelyn Belcher, who began work last
fall.
EPAC members don't want to "rock the
boat'' or appear to confront the vice president with their opinions at this point. Instead, they intend to invite Belcher to an

ASH Inc. has filed a response objecting to a request by LCC
and Mount Hood Community College (MHCC) to produce
evidence in relation to a lawsuit filed by the colleges against
the corporation.
On October 27, 1986, LCC and MHCC filed a lawsuit which
would force ASH to follow the alleged promises made between it and the colleges, if the suit is upheld in court.
However, ASH alleges that the volume of material requested is "unduly burdensome" in an objection filed Jan. 6,
1987 with the Oregon Circuit Court, according to the MHCC
Advocate (newspaper) in a Jan. 16 article by David Chambers.
ASH also claims the type of evidence is "irrelevant to the
issues, ... vague," and would break the "attorney-client
privelege."
Lawyers for LCC and MHCC then filed a response January
7, 1987 with the same court, holding objections that the requests were "unreasonably burdensome" and "unduly
vague.'' The colleges also say they will '' provide all
brochures or proposals for the development of student and

National Community College Month, first
proclaimed in 1986 by President Reagan and
Congress, is celebrated during February.
LCC is joining in this national celebration
by scheduling special events.
• On Feb. 20, a team from from the area's
print media will face a team from local electronic media in a Celebrity Spelling Bee, at
noon in the LCC cafeteria.
• The Performing Arts Department's Electronic Music Event on Feb. 27 will feature
four daytime clinics as well as an 8 p .m. concert and light show.
LCC is a "comprehensive college" offering
college-transfer programs and courses,
technical and vocational training, community
education, specialized counseling, training,
and support services. LCC also houses high
school completion, which is sometimes not
the case with other community colleges.
Junior colleges, on the other hand, are
usually two-year public and private schools
with the purpose of preparing students for
upper-division (junior and senior) college
work. Vocational and Technical schools are
usually limited to job training curricula.
According to a packet compiled by Diane
Prokop of LCC's Office of Institutional Advancement, LCC is a typical example of the
rapid growth of community colleges, junior
colleges, and technical/vocationa l schools nationwide.
In 1935, 528 two-year colleges enrolled
about 130,000 students. By 1986, over 1200
colleges enrolled more than 4.5 million
students, or about 38 percent of all college
students.
The student bodies of two-year colleges differ from those of four-year colleges in many
ways:
• About two-thirds of the students attend
part-time.
• Over 80 pecent of all students are
employed.
• Nearly half of the minority students
enrolled in colleges attend two-year schools.
• A larger portion of handicapped students
are enrolled at two-year colleges than at other
colleges.
• Two-thirds of these students are 20 years
or older. On any given day at 10 a.m. the
see College, page 3
The third All-Faculty conference will
take place at noon, Wednesday, Feb. 25,
in Forum 309. All LCC students and
staff are welcome to attend.

Cleaning up
janitors image
To the LCC Janitorial Staff
I would like to take the
time to clear up a
misunderstand ing that a letter in last weeks Letter to the
Editor section has caused.
It seems that the remarks I
made about my janitorial
skills and the way I clean up
the TORCH office, (Feb. 13,
1987), aroused questions and
concern about the job the
janitorial staff does here on
campus.
I certainly did not mean to
say that the janitors here on
campus do not do an ade-

quate job. But, there are
groups of us who work late
and mess up the excellent job
they may do.
Such is the case here at the
TORCH office.
The janitors will clean
up the office while we are
working on the paper and
move on to the next task.
But what the readers of the
TORCH and the janitoral
staff don't know about is the
mess that accumulates after
the office is cleaned.
Often someone will bring
in chips and dips, that really
makes a mess. By the time
the paper is ready to go to
the press, it looks like a tornado has struck the office.
All that work nullified.
And it would stay that way,

too, if a ·TORCH person did
not pick up.
My mother would be
ashamed of me if I left my
room the way the office looks
after we get finshed with it.
So, to please my mother
and to help our campus look
great, some of us take the
time to pick up the mess that
I and my fellow co-workers
make on Wednesday and
Thursday.
I'm not the only person to
clean up at the TORCH. We
all do our part, as should
everyone on campus. _
The janitorial staff do a
great job cleaning up after
the students of LCC. And the
students of LCC should be
grateful that we have such a

great staff to clean up this
campus.
Keep up the excellent
work.

Amerika viewed
as chauvanistic
To the Editor:
A few words about
"Amerika": The beginning
was very vague; the movie
jumps from one scene to
another and is choppy; it
follows the usual maledominated story line, with
the woman/ artist as temptress and female who gives in

to the hard advances of her
lover (ie., women love to be
hurt); the young dancer's
body was objectified by the
camera shots of her midsection and crotch while chopping off her head (ie., women
are objects).
The most important thing
to remember is that this is a
sly propaganda film supposedly coming from the
right wing, and maybe Fundamentalists. Yet, the folks
who will ultimately profit
from its supposed outcome,
Fear and Paranoia, will be
the armaments manufacturers and dealers.
Yours in peace and love,
Joy Bouee'

Lette r camp aign to Congress in the works
forum by Rob Ward

ASLCC l'rt•sidl'nl

I would like to thank all of the students who have signed a
Financial Aid Action Committee (FAAC) petition. ASLCC
Senator Dan LaMarche presented the petitions, with over 700
signatures, to Representative Peter DeFazio last Tuesday at
the Eugene City Council Chambers. It was DeFazio's first
public meeting in Eugene after his initial session in Congress.
Defazio is very supportive of financial aid for students and
promised he will do all he can to see financial aid programs
get full funding. But don't relax yet. There is much more to be
done.
From Feb. 24-26 the ASLCC, in conjunction with FAAC,
will embark on a massive letter-writing campaign. From 9
a.m. until 2 p.m. the ASLCC will staff the booth in the main
cafeteria entrance. There will be students there to help you
write a letter to your representative . Writing a quick, but personal, letter to your representative is an effective way to let
your congressperso n know how you feel about a pertinent
issue. There are a few basic guidelines a person should know
about writing a letter to a representative . The students at the
booth will be more than happy to assist you.
There will be voter registration cards available at the
ASLCC booth, also. It is important for your legislators to

know you are a registered voter. If you need help filling out a
voter registration card, it will be available at the booth. Lane
Community College is asking for a four year serial levy on the
March 31 ballot, and two LCC Board of Education members
are seeking re-election. Last November the State of Oregon
passed a 20 day voter registration cut-off, so if you want to
vote in the March 31 elections, you must be registered by
March 10.
A rally on the capitol steps in Salem is also in the works.
CCOSAC, (Community Colleges of Oregon Student Associations and Commissions) our state student association, is
sponsoring this rally to alert our legislators to our fears of the
proposed financial aid cuts. Each Community College in
Oregon will be sending students to the State Capitol. The
purpose of the rally is the same as the letter 'w riting campaign. We must convince our legislators that students are not
an apathetic bunch. Maintaining acessibility to a higher
education is a priority for all of us who would not be attending college right now without financial aid. The rally date
will be known by Feb. 24. Ask us for more information.
Remember -- Feb. 24-26 in the main entrance to the
cafeteria. 1) Sign a petition 2) Register to vote 3) Write a letter
to your representative 4) Sign up for the Salem rally. A
strong student voice equals strong student power.

A picture is worth a thousand
words, or so the saying goes. In this
case, I'm inclined to agree -- I'm not
sure words would paint a picture
graphic enough to fully illustrate my
point.
On Thursday, Feb. 19, Dale Anderson of White City ran a red light
while going south through the
McVey-30th Ave. intersection. His
1980 -Toyota pickup collided with
another Toyota pickup holding two
adults and three children.
The five in the Toyota were treated
for minor injuries at the Eugene
Clinic, then released. Anderson was
not hurt.
I'm glad there weren't any serious
injuries -- this time.

To the Editor:
I am a vegetarian, and
when I went to the snack bar,
I asked for a burrito with
beans and guacamole -- and
they told me the beans had
lard in them! When I asked if
the vegetable soup had meat
in it, they said yes!
And what do you think the
chili, the pre-made sandwiches, and even the premade salads have in common? Meat!
Why are they so gung-ho
on meat?

Vandals, thieves break in with forged keys
the college was built. He insists the solution is to
change (re-key) the entire campus, starting with
his department, and has written a memo to Vice
President for Instruction Jacquee Belcher with that
recommendation. According to Kotsakis, Belcher
has agreed to forward the plc1n to the President's
Cabinet.
To control the problem in the meantime, Kotsakis has asked Campus Security to make
"personal contact" with anyone in the Mechanic~
or Flight Technology are.1s at night or on
vveekends, and to expel anyone without cl permission slip signed c1nd dated by Kotsc1kis himself. He
has also requested quotes from several local companies on electronic door <1larm systems.

Thieves and vandals entering the Flight
Technology Building during unauthorized hours,
~ome by means of illicit campus master keys, have
stolen or damaged at least $4,000 worth of equipment and tools, claims Mechanics Department
Chair Ted Kotsakis.
A wood planer and two bc1nd saws have been
damaged, and small hand tools have been stolen
by persons entering the area during weekend and
evening hours, despite cl request for improved
security patrols, says Kotsakis.
While part of the problem is due to people with
legitimate keys who don't understand the rules,
the bigger problem is illegaly made keys. "Security
for door locks in my area does not exist,'' claims
Kotsakis. Gaining entrance by means of uncontrolled master keys that can open any doors on
campus, "people are coming in and abusing
machines and facilities," he says. "The integrity of
the system is not good."
Kotsakis claims a master kcv can be made from
any standard issue door kev -used at LCC in less
than five minutes. "I made-one myself in my nffice," he says, which -- to mc1ke· cl point :_ he ·

Free health care at SHC
by Diane Davis
fORCH St<lli Writl'r

Free health care is available to all LCC
students enrolled in credit, Adult Basic
Education, and High School Completion
classes.
The Student Health Center (SHC), located
in Room 126 of the Center Building, offers
professional services on -<1 drop-in basis Monday through Friday. The Center is staffed by
three community doctors, and in addition by
two licensed nurse practitioners and a parttime medical technologist.
"One reason I think our level of care is so
outstanding," says Sandy Ing, director of
SHC, "is the amount of communication our
nurses have with the doctors. We have twohour staff meetings each week to keep appraised of what's going on with our clients
and staff. Also, our doctors are community
professionals who maintain their own practices in addition to working here."
Services offered free of charge include first
aid for injuries received on or off campus,
allergy shots, vision and hearing screening,
nutrition counseling, and consultations with
doctors or nurses regarding health questions.

"The only thing th<1t concerns me is how long it
will take" to re-key the college. He admits it would
be difficult to finance such c1 project c1ll at once, but
feels that the Mechclllics c1rea ~hould take priority
because of its evident problem.
Security Mc1nc1ger Paul Chase refused to comment on either the proposal to re-key the campus,
or on efforts to step up patrols in the Mechanics
area, saying "I don't comment on security matters
in the public forum_"

College, trom page 1 _ _ _ _ _ _ _ __

It also offers a medical clinic for athletes, and
refers dental emergencies to local dentists.
Some services require a small fee; complete womans' exam ($15), physicals needed
for LCC programs or employment ($15),
tuberculin skin test ($2), and lab tests. SHC
also offers birth control devices at reduced
prices.
The $15 charge for a woman's exam includes a physical, pap smear, lab tests, VD
testing and birth control method consultation. Appointments are necessary for the
hour-long exams.
Birth control supplies sold by SHC are
diaphragms, birth control pills, foam, condoms and diaphragm jelly.
Ing stresses that the SHC maintains confidential records, and doesn't release information without patient approval.
"Sometimes it's difficult when concerned
parents call after learning their child has been
in to see us. They wonder if they should take
their child to the doctor themselves, or what
kind of care we've given. It's a sticky situation, but we just tell them we can't give out
that information, that they'll have to talk to
their son or daughter.

average aged student in a two-year college is 23 years old;·
and at 8 p.m. the average is 38 years old.
• About 40,000 international students attend these colleges,
more than one-third of all international students in post-high
school education.
• About 53 percent of two-year college students are women.
Community colleges play a special role in American higher
education in several areas.
The proportion of associate degrees awarded in occupational/technical areas has increased steadily, from 54 percent
in 1974-75, to 65 percent of the 460,000 degrees awarded in
1984-85.
Almost all community colleges have established partnerships with business, industry, and the public sector in their
areas.
Nearly all community colleges offer developmental education classes in reading, writing and math. Between 20 and 30
percent of first-year students take at least one of these classes.
Community colleges are especially flexible in working with
students who have not yet chosen a major or a career goal.
The vast majority of community colleges collaborate with
local high schools in a vc1riety of programs.

Vegetarian's complaint prompts response
by Shawn Rude

tmthl' ll1Rlll

One vegetarian had a complaint. The LCC Food Service
manager listened.
Student Debra Del George
complained when Food Service employees no longer
allowed her to switch
potatoes for bacon on the
breakfast croissant meal
"without paying extra."
Del George took the complaint to Food Service Director Bob Tegge. And she says
she got "immediate results.
11

Tegge says he wasn't upset
about the complaint. "My
job is to try and take care of
complaints, and see that the
students are happy,"
although he says veg~1.arians
are hard to satisfy, since
what one vegetarian can eat
might not be acceptable to
another vegetarian. ''There
are too many different

everyone.''

to

satisfy

Tegge says Food Services
probably gets only 10 complaints a year, and most of
those are over prices.
"Students complain about
the prices, but they're as low
as they can be for us to have
a shot at breaking even."
Tegge responded to Del
George's complaint by offering her the breakfast both
ways -- the croissant with
bacon or with potatoes -- at
the same price. Del George is
happy with the results .
However, she says when
she first made the request to
switch selections, she didn't
like the way the workers had
treated her. "I felt when I
first complained, nobody
listened to me. I wish the
workers would have been
more considerate to my
needs. So I ended up taking

matters to Tegge."
And Del George also
thinks the menu needs
reviewing. "If Bob is truly
concerned with the happiness of the students, he
would have an updated
nutrition survey on the food.

Snack food should be aimed
towards health."
Tegge says he likes to hear
such complaints and suggestions from the students "My
door is always open to complaints. I can't guess what
the students want."

ficulties they may be experiencing, while providing encouragement from peer groups.

Intervention in crisis situations is just one
of the services offered by the LCC Counseling Center.

Human Relations 1 teaches basic communication skills, "which I find a majority of
people are lacking,'' says Vail.
Eliminating Self-Defeating Behavior focuses
on any behavior a student wishes to alter or
decrease, and teaches how this goal may be
accomplished.
Two classes per term are offered in Coping
Skills for Stress and Depression. A maximum of
25 people in each class learn how to identify
the types of stress and depression they personally encounter, find what situations or
behaviors cause them to peak, and once
there, how to get back to a manageable level.

TORCH Staff Writer

''If a person is in a crisis situation -- emotionally distraught, frightened, discouraged
and crying -- they're referred to us," says
Betty Vail, counselor and part-time coordinator for the Counseling and Advising
Department. "If it's an emergency situation,
such as severe despondency, or if they' re on
the verge of suicide, we'll go and find them.''

"Care to join me in a hard, rigid, resilient, dimensionally
stable, clear thermoplastic polymer molded form containing
brewed beans and water?''
While it may not be the most appetizing way to say, "Care
to join me in a cup of coffee?" that's exactly what you're consuming if you drink your java in a styrofoam cup.
Styrofoam, otherwise known as polystyrene, is a popular
substance used to make a number of insulating products, including coffee cups. However there has been some concern
over the impact styrofoam cups may have on the environment.
All plastic products, including polystyrene, are derived
from petroleum and are not biodegradable. The main reason
for their continued use is that they are often more durable
than equivalent paper products.
A large amount of the coffee served on the LCC campus
does come in styrofoam cups. In addition to the coffee the
cafeteria sells, the Student Resource Center (SRC) and the
LCC Women's Center also provide coffee to students in
styrofoam cups.
One employee at the SRC estimates that over seven gallons
of coffee is served each Wednesday when the center provides
it at no cost.
Most students were not aware of the environmental
dangers the styrofoam could cause. When asked why they
used styrofoam cups instead of biodegradable paper cups,
members of the SRC staff weren't sure. Many students felt
that the main advantage came when the cups needed to be
disposed of. "They make a funny sound when you crunch
them up," and "They crunch down to nothing," were
typical responses when coffee drinkers were asked why the)
liked styrofoam cups.
In his book, Rigid Plastic Foams, T.H. Ferrigno says that
polystrene takes several years to degrade, but can be accelerated by high energy radiation and elevated
temperatures. If we ever experience a nuclear war, we can
rest easy knowing our styrofoam cups are being degraded.

To assist in combating these problems, the
Counseling Center offers students classes
and/or support groups that focus on the dif-

"It's amazing how many people aren't
aware of what's creating the stress in their
lives," says Vail. "Basically, they just need
guidance in utilizing the skills they already
have, such as time management, and
developing those skills they lack. Overall, the
most beneficial resource is a support group.
It's nice to know there are other people going
through the same things.''

Some of the major problems experienced
by LCC students are in the areas of lifestyle
management, unrealistic expectations, and
uncertainty about career decisions, explains
Vail. Still others experience a lack of confidence upon entering the "foreign" world of
college.

Students seeking advice on parenting skills
may benefit from Dreikursian Principles 1 and
2. Nicknamed the "Saturday Circus,"
Counselor Carolyn Morris interviews parents
and children to identify problems, then sets
up steps and goals for them to follow. After
the interviews, parents discuss their successes and failures and offer group encouragement.

While many LCC students use the drop-in
facilities of the Counseling Center to discuss
academic options, counselors are also ready
with a listening ear and advice for students
experiencing relationship difficulties, career
decisions, parenting problems, and for those
who want to get their life in order.
"Most people just need to be listened to,"
says Vail. "It usually takes more than one
visit with a counselor to identify the problem.
To establish a solid understanding, we work
·with students one-on-one and develop a
step-by-step program, utilizing skills they
may already possess (from) classes available
on campus."

the state or U.S. government, many colleges, LCC
included, require an international student to enter the
U.S. with all the funds needed to cover their entire stay
here.
International students are
not eligible for financial aid,
and are not permitted to
work unless they have a
work permit or are employed
on campus.
They are required to pass
the TOEFL with a minimum
score of 475 at LCC and 500
at the U of O. The lower test
score is another factor that
leads many international
students to choose LCC over
the UofO, says LCC's Admissions Specialist Trudy
Parker. "And," she adds,
'' students get more personal
attention here.''
''I had to adjust myself to
American society," says Linda Halim of Indonesia, who
was already at the UofO.
While still in Indonesia,
Halim had to obtain admission to LCC, get her student
visa, and plan the finances
for her entire stay in the U.S.
A Japanese student adds,
"Girls, especially in my
country, want to learn a
foreign language, and at LCC
we can study English and
start our college education at
the same time.''

fa culty housing, " which
were given to MHCC and
LCC.
The lawsuit alleges that
ASH Inc. broke contracts
that would have allowed the
colleges to assume control of
the apartment buildings
owned and operated by
ASH.
Pacific Western Bank is included in the suit because it
allegedly gave the apartment
deeds to ASH Inc. without
notifying the colleges.
According to papers filed
with the court, one intent of
the lawsuit is to require continued use of the apartments
"for educational purposes
for the remaining term of the
loans." Another is to ensure
that low cost housing will be
maintained as planned.
Under terms of the original
loans, LCC's contract lasted
until Dec. 13, 2011, and
MHCC's until Oct. 22, 2010.
As reported in the Jan. 30
issue of the TORCH, as well
as the Jan. 9 issue of the
MHCC Advocate, ASH
denies that the colleges have
a right to the property for a
number of reasons. First,
ASH claims that the colleges
had no legal right to enter into an agreement that would
result in their assuming control of the apartments.
Second, ASH says that
because MHCC and LCC
never became co-obligators
on the original HUD loans in
February 20, 1987

"Learning ability increased with vitamin B_l." . .
Faced with an algebra test and an economics quiz m
the same day, I was desperate enough to read further
when this statement caught my eye in the Nutrition
Almanac from McGraw-Hill Book Company (1984).
According to the Almanac, a six-week experiment
conducted by Dr. Ruth Flinn Harrell found that children
from nine to nineteen years of age gained one-fourth
more in learning ability when given a vitamin 81 pill
each day.
B1, or Thiamine, is a water-soluble vitamin that acts as
a coenzyme participating in the complex process of.
glucose conversion into energy. Known as the 'morale
vitamin' because of its relation to a healthy nervous
system, thiamine has a beneficial effect on the mental ~ttitude. Loss of inhibitory emotional control, paran01d
trends, manic-depression and confusion were helped by
thiamine when given to psychiatric patients in an instituiton, the Almanac states.
A diet rich in brewer's yeast, wheat germ, blackstrap
molasses, and bran will provide the body with adequate
thiamine. Individual needs are determined by body
weight, and the National Research Council_ reco~mends 0.5 milligram of thiamine per 100 calones daily
for all ages.
-When it comes to studying for economics, I'll try
anything, so off to the drug store I go.

1970 and 1971, the property
deeds should not have been
given to the colleges.
Third, ASH denies that it
offered to give the apartments as a gift to MHCC and
LCC; since the colleges
would have been given the
titles if that was the case.
Fourth, ASH claims that
proposals for transfers were
dependent on conditions
that the apartments be
"debt-free." According to

"The Delivery Specialists"

ASH, the apartments are not
debt-free.
In addition, ASH alleges
that the case should be
dismissed because the col1e g es knew ASH had
refinanced its loans with
HUD in 1983 and 1984, but
did not assert claims at that
time. ASH also says that too
much time has elapsed between the colleges' alleged
knowledge of the refinancing
and the suit.

Spot needs diamond
by Val Brown

TORCH Sports Editor

The other day, while I was pulling onto campus via
Eldon Schafer Drive, I happened to spot a vacant
space near the flooded baseball field.
I'm sure most LCC students and faculty are familiar
with the space .
Right there is exactly enough room for a backstop,
home plate, pitching rubber, and three bases in the
infield. There is even enough space for a good-sized
outfield.
It's really sad that Eugene's fast pitch players have
two choices, the U of O or out~of-town, to continue
their softball careers in fastpitch .
Eugene high schools hold the honor of housing the
finest pitchers in the state of Oregon, and many good
softball players, but only one local post-high school
learning institution which offers softball competition
at the collegiate level.
You could see the lightbulb pop on above my head.
Why not make this a two college/fastpitch town?
Why should the University have all the fun? And
the talent?
Lane has a men's track team, and men's baseball
team, but offers women on campus only track for the
spring athletic activity.
What are we less-than-fleet-footed women to do? I
don't fancy throwing a dicus, or a shot put. I'd rather
have a softball in one hand and glove on the other.
J know, the budget is limited; men's soccer was cut
two years ago because of money limitations.
This athlete, like most, is an undying optimist, and
will always hope that fastpitch will make a comeback,
but until then, we always will have slo-pitch.
Many of us will not be deprived of our aching arms,
bruised shins, and strawberries on our legs! No way .
We former fastpitchers love to play softball, and we'll
get our fix one way or the other.

says Dale Bates, the Titan's
head coach. "We missed free

defensively.
''We let Mount Hood get
