LANE COMMUNI TY COLLEGE VOL.22, NO.21 April 10, 198 7 RIF prote sted by Lois Grammon TORCH Associate Editor "Why should we take all the brunt of this?" asks George Alvergue, LCC Education Association (LCCEA) president. ''It appears that the faculty is being singled out'' for the Reduction In Force (RIF) proposed for Fall Term as a costcutting measure, he adds. However, "what we have done and are doing is based almost totally on contractual obligations," responds Lon Mills, acting director of Employee Relations. Because of anticipated budget reductions, the administration has determined that a staff retrenchment may be necessary for Fall Term 1987. Several factors contributing to this are reductions in state funding, lower interest income, and less cash carry-forward. President Richard Turner notified the entire LCC staff of the proposal on March 13, in compliance with article 10, section 2 of the instructors' contract. Article 10 states that the college is required to give 60 days notice to instructors of a possible RIF. However, LCCEA took issue with the notification, saying that arbitration conducted last year specifies that the LCCEA must be provided with the names of those who may be included in the potential RIF. ''The college says that they interpret the arbitration to mean that'' it is not necessary to notify LCCEA during the first "window period," the first 60 days (out of a total of 120 days) preceding a RIF, says Alvergue. • LCCEA contends that the 60-day period does not begin until the college provides the names of those who may be Sean Elliot . hair bright red because • a 17-year-o}d LCC student who dyes his • 0 ee ter ts he Euc "likes to be different."

The tank top and shorts he chose earlier that morning made all the difference in comfort as he sat trapped in a hot elevator for over an hour on Monday, April 4. Klobas innocently entered the Center Building's south elevator in the library "somewhere between 10 and 10:30 a.m." on his way to the cafeteria for a drink. '' All of a sudden, there was a loud 'klunk' and it just stopped," Klobas stammered. Nervous and winded, Klobas explained his ordeal while library students looked on indifferently. ''When it stopped, I started ringing the emergency bell until someone screamed at me to 'shut up.' Then I pried open the inside doors. I thought I might be able to get out."

Although the college currently has no policy concerning the treatment of those with AIDS and other life-threatening diseases, the board heard the first draft of a proposed policy for LCC on the subject. It would cover both personnel and students with diseases such as cancer, heart disease, and AIDS. As long as the student or employee is '' able to meet acceptable performance standards, and medical evidence indicates that their conditions are not a threat to themselves or others, managers should be sensitive to their conditions and ensure that they are treated consistently'' with other employees and students, the new policy states. Administrative procedures for implementing the new policy are being developed, according to Jack Carter, vice president for Student Services.

Titan track victory Configurations on display at LCC Celebration at home Page 8 Page 12 Page 9 Senators impressed by LCC students' petitions forum by Rob Ward ASLCC President In February and March, over 1, 100 LCC students signed petitions protesting the Reagan Administration's proposed financial aid cuts. These signatures, collected by the Financial Aid Action Committee, were sent to key members of the House and Senate committees on education. All of the representatives who received copies of the petitions were thoroughly impressed with the speed with which we reacted to the proposed cuts. Sen. Claiborne Pell of Rhode Island, who is the chairperson of the Senate Subcommittee on Education, Arts, and Humanities, is a very strong supporter of federal financial aid. Senator Pell, whom the Pell Grants are named after, suggests we take the Financial Aid Action Committee one step further and form a Political Action Committee (PAC). In a recent letter to me, Senator Pell proclaims, "With a PAC you could 'Quality of life?' To the Editor: That abortion is a legal procedure in the United States is only symptomatic of a larger problem. I am troubled by what I perceive to be a shift in ethical standards from a "sanctity of life" to a "quality of life" position. Science has come to a concensus. Irrefutably, human life begins at conception. Most religious doctrines concur. Nevertheless, the abortion debate lingers in the sociological arena. We continue to terminate the lives of innocents based upon what we consider cost/benefit factors, meaningfulness, convenience: the so-called" quality of life.'' In the face of hard science, we've bought the hard sell. We are playing with fire when we embrace this new ethical conduct. Where abortion was considered unthinkable only several years ago, it is now commonplace. Which unthinkables will we espouse in the decades to come? In order to preserve our right to life as we have · known it in America, we must re-adopt our traditional ethical standard which would deny that there is such a thing as a life not worthy to be lived.

The amount of money you contributed would not be important. What would be important is the press and publicity you could attract through such a vehicle. In this way, you could let candidates know the seriousness of your commitment to these programs while ensuring that education would be an issue of importance in the campaigns. ''I am most impressed with the prompt and positive action you have taken to counter the Administration's proposal to cut the federal higher education budget by 46 percent. It is imperative that students actively take part in the legislative process if education programs are to continue receiving the support they deserve.'' Students, you can make a difference. Check to see if your representatives are supporters of financial aid. Let them know how you feel. Hopefully, there will be students here next year who will carry on the fight of the Financial Aid Action Committee. Student voices and student votes do make a difference. 1986 by physicians, nurses, and parents to provide up-todate information on circumcision, America's unique and leading unnecessary surgery. The US is now the only Western or Eastern nation left in which over half of all baby boys are still circumcised at birth without a medical or religious reason. Over 85 percent of the world's males are intact (non-circumcised). The surgery, which became popular in the US after World War II, is slowly declining among the educated, especially since America's pediatric and obsterical academies declared in the late seventies that there is no health reason to subject infants to this painful surgery. In recent months, we have received many letters from American males who are dissatisfied with their circumcisions and who have sought medical advice from us on foreskin restoration. The problems range from surgical scares to tightness and pain to sexual disfunction because of the loss of protective foreskin. Because these problems may be more widespread than previously thought, we are soliciting letters from your readers, either signed or anonymously, on the issue of circumcision. All responses will be held in the strictest medical confidence. Specifically, we ask male readers to: (1) describe problems which they believe are related to the fact that they are circumcised; (2) how old were they when they learned they had been circumcised; (3) how did they feel when they realized that part of their body was cut off; and (4) would they prefer to be intact, and would consider Surrogate motherhood: baby selling or a blessing? by Kelli J. Ray TORCH Editor Is it morally right for a childless couple to contract with a surrogate mother for a child? Besides emotion, morality played a central role in the Baby M controversy, a landmark custody battle between surrogate mother Mary Beth Whitehead and the couple who contracted with her, the Sterns. Proponents say that surrogate motherhood should be considered as viable an option as adoption -- and perhaps even more so, since the legal father would also be the biological father. Couples shouldn't be destined to childless lives by flaws in the would-be parents' reproductive systems. And if society draws a line at surrogate motherhood, shouldn't a line also be drawn at sperm banks and artificial insemination? Opponents argue that surrogate Page2TheTORCH motherhood is a product of the upperdass, since only those with money can afford to pay a woman to have a baby for them. Thus, lowerclass women are exploited to fulfill the family needs of the upperclass. This veiled "baby selling" is unethical, argue opponents. And a mother should have the power to decide, contract or not, whether to keep her child. Without the emotion and the question of ethics, it would have been easy for the judge to make a court decision based on the legal contract between Whitehead and the Sterns. The decision could have been as "routine" as the legal agreements made between two divorcing parents over the children caught in the middle. But, as with "routine" custody agreements, parent-child relationships were at stake and a human life was involved. And anything as emotion-laden as the separation of a parent from a child is bound to make a legal contract seem insignificant. No matter what our opinions, the Baby M case set a legal precedent about the validity of the contract. So perhaps it would be best to set precedents on how surrogate motherhood is conducted. To dispell the question of whether or not it is ''baby selling,'' the amount of money exchanged for the child should be minimal, if not nonexistent. This would also make surrogate mothers available to the middle and lower classes, eliminating class distinctions. The surrogate mother should be carefully chosen for mental and emotional stability. And counseling should be included in the contract, for both sets of parents -- because for even the most emotionally secure, it won't be easy. foreskin restoration if available? We also solicit comments from intact males and females. This subject is sensitive and serious. Crank letters are not appreciated. Your responses should be sent to NOCIRC, 731 Sir Francis Drake Boulevard, San Anselmo, CA 94960. Readers interested in learning more about circumcision should send a stamped, selfaddressed envelope to that address. Sincerely, Marilyn F. Milos, R.N. Director EDITOR: Kelli J.

In one section (How To Talk About Sex), fictionalized conversations between male/female sex partners appeared. What the newsletter failed to print was the obvious problem with the spread of AIDS -- homosexual partners. Here is a more likely scenerio. Two men (John and David): is "There JOHN: something I need to tell you. I really like you a lot, and going to bed with you was great. I feel bad I didn't mention this before, but I want to tell you now. I had sex with 12 different guys last week. Over the years I've bedded down with hundreds of guys -- we had oral-anal, fisted ... you know, the usual. What I'm trying to say, David, is there might be a tiny, little chance I have AIDS. 11 DAVID: "Really? Well, it's not your fault. It's that damn Reagan administration. They could be allocating more federal money to find a cure. Thank goodness AIDS is a political disease -- society will be forced to accept us. It's too bad people with Black Plague or Hepatitis didn't organize like our gay community and have the ACLU fighting for them ... (cough, cough)."

I feel that the bookstore should have a person watching people's things if we have to put them on a shelf while in the store. They don't want their store ripped off, what makes them think we want our books and stuff ripped off? Keely Sannes LCC Student 'They' are protected To the Editor: In response to Linda D. Norens' letter printed in the 4/3 edition, I must ask what she is afraid of? Her letter sounds as if the homosexual community will rise up and destroy the world. Come on. Are homosexuals not fit to enjoy the basic rights under our Constitution? If we are allowed by law or lack of a law to discriminate against people for what they chose to do in PRIVATE, then we can discriminate against anyone who doesn't think like us, or dress like us, or wash their hands like us. All people have the right to live their lives to the fullest. If it bothers Linda that ''they'' may be doing ''it'' next door, then she and others of similar minds are the sick ones. If Linda believes that homosexuality is a sin, then by all means pray for them, but don't harass them, or deny them a place to live. Don't teach children to hate any group of persons. The homosexual community will not go away even if House Bill 2325 fails. Their life style is not ours to judge. Their lives are as legitimate and as valuable as yours and mine.

TINS GIFTS DECORATIONS The TORCH Page 3 Ford Foundation acknowledges Barry's success by Muriel Willingham TORCH Staff Writer LCC Women's Program Coordinator Kate Barry has recently been notified of the renewal of her Ford Foundation grant, permitting her to continue her work on curriculum integration. Women have made contributions to many areas of society throughout history, and the process of curriculum integration indentifies them, with the goal of including information about women in regular classes, rather than creating separate courses on women's studies. Barry says, "We'll still have Women's Studies as an academic area. However, the research on women's issues has produced a 12-year accumulation of scholarship, and we want to begin integrating that information into all courses. Instead of classes about male: experience, we'll have classes about human experience.'' It's important to focus on all kinds of women, Barry adds, noting that women of all ages, classes, races, sexual orientation and educational levels have made significant contributions throughout history. The grant renewal acknowledges the succe~s of Barry's work in the last three years. She worked with instructors Joyce Salisbury and Linda Danielson of the English and Foreign Language Department in developing the original projects. Money provided by the new funding will allow three faculty members to be released from teaching one course each during Spring term. They will devote the released time to developing new course outlines, which they will share with other instructors. Staff members participating under the current grant are Susan Dunne, Karen Locke, and Susan Swan, all from English and Foreign Language. Barry wants to see the trend toward integration extended further on campus, reaching into other departments. She says the administration is very supportive, and the faculty is interested. Th_e Ford Foundation channels funds for curriculum int e gr at ion development through the Southwest Research Institute on Women. For several years, Ford has provided money for these projects at universities, but only in the last two years have grants been made to community colleges. Last year, in the first stage of funding, seed money grants were given to 18 West coast community colleges. Requirements were flexible, and most schools used the money to develop their women's programs. Barry had already begun integration work, giving the college a head start over most schools. At the end of the original grant period, all 18 schools applied for an extension. Only ten schools, inlcuding LCC, were selected. Public and political interest Compiled by Kelli J. Ray TORCH Editor The Oregon Department of Education has launched a project to p~~vide services to "latchkey" children -- those without adult supervison during non-school hours. Project goals include determining how many schools are cooperating with school-aged child care programs, developing resource kits for schools and community agencies, and providing technical assistance and information to schools. The results of the surveys will be announced soon. White Bird Clinic offers legal assistance for those who cannot afford a private attorney. Consultations are available four afternoons weekly. Information, referrals, and direct assistance are available at low cost. Interested? Call 342-8255. The Family Soup Kitchen operates at Patterson School in Eugene, and now also at St. Alice Catholic Church in Springfield. Regular hours are Monday, Wednesday, and Friday at the Patterson School, from 5:30-6:00 p.m., and at St. Alice on Tuesday and Thursday from 5:30-7:00 p.m. The Family Soup Kitchen is sponsored by FOOD for Lane County, which makes use of 20,000 pounds of safe, edible, locally collected food a month, which would otherwise be thrown away. What really happens as a result of prison? What if the system doesn't improve? What are the costs? What improvements can and can't be made simply by giving tax money to the system?

Page 4 The TORCH • .., ·•· - April 10, 1987 State colleg e admin istrati on Liberal arts educati on provide s ground ing may he reorga nized by Robert Wolfe TORCH Lead Reporter Oregon community colleges will be organized into a new Department of Community Colleges, administered by a chancellor, if a measure being considered by the legislature becomes law. Community colleges are currently administered through an office in the Department of Education, which also administers K-12 and a Division of Vocational Education. The Department .of Education is responsible to the State Board of Education and is administered by the Superintendent of Public Education Verne Duncan. The new bill would join the office of community colleges and the Division of Vocational Education into a new community college department. The department would be administered by its own chancellor and would report directly to the State Board of Higher Education, rather than the superintendent of Public Instruction. The primary sponsor of the measure is the Oregon Community Colleges Association (OCCA), which introduced it, and is lobbying for the measure. OCCA consists of 115 community college board members and trustees, and five community college presidents, including the LCC Board of Education and LCC President Turner. ''This would establish community colleges within the executive branch and make us directly accessible to the governor," according to Roger Bassett, OCCA head. Bassett claims that community college issues are overshadowed by K-12 business within the Department of Education. He believes that it is '' correct and proper'' that these matters take priority, and adds, "we need to be separate so people can deal with the community colleges rather than have them buried in other business.'' Community colleges are last on a list of eight priorities established by the Department of Education, says Bassett. In other supporting arguments, Bassett points out that the role of community colleges is expanding beyond the current organizational structure. Many new programs, such as the Dislocated Workers, Displaced Homemakers, and the Small Business Assistance Centers "require us to deal directly with government and state agencies where the funds and authority originate," he says. These new facets of community college activity play an important part in regenerating Oregon's economy, he adds. Ironically, primary opposition to the bill comes from the office of Mike Holland, who is the Executive Director for Community Col- leges within the Department of Education. While Holland agrees that community colleges in general need greater visibility and representation, he thinks House Bill 2530 is the wrong way to go. ''It is an unwise move for the state of Oregon,'' claims Holland. His primary concern is that a new agency could result in creeping bureaucracy, and eventually reduce the control of local boards and trustees. ''The state didn't create the community colleges, local people did, and their success is based on responsiveness to local needs, he says. He envisions that a new governmental organization could eventually lead to a state system of community colleges which would be unable to respond adequately to local concerns. Bassett responds by claiming that the bill is written to incorporate sections of Oregon law that would allow local trustees to retain 95 percent control over individual schools. The new department would only be responsible for presenting the budget, reviewing and approving new programs, and determining the school's elegibility for state reimbursement. ''This was originated by board members and presidents of the schools themselves, not by any state agency or bureaucracy, says Ron Robbins, ASLCC communications director and head of the Political Involvement Committee, a lobbying organization of students sponsored by CCOSAC, a group of all the student body leaders from Oregon community colleges. ''This is a grass roots movement.'' As an alternative to House Bill 2530, Holland points out House Bill 2027, which would have the executive director for community colleges present the colleges' budget separately from the K-12 budget. He believes this would provide much of the increased visibility OCCA says is needed. Holland is in a tough situation, say people familiar with his position. He opposes the bill for his own reasons, and has been required to testify against it by Superintendent for Public Education Verne Duncan, all while holding the job as community college advocate within the state structure. "I've written it off as being weird, says Holland. "I told them when I was hired that I would oppose this one, even though I support (the community colleges on) all the other issues." Several sources point out that Holland would be a likely candidate for the proposed chancellorship. Oregon Gov. Neil Goldschmidt has gone 11 11 11 see Administration, page 10 by Craig Smith TORCH Staff Writer This is no time to ignore a liberal arts education, says an LCC career counselor. True, labor analysts project an increase in service sector jobs -- and many only require a high school education. But people entering these positions shouldn't expect high rates of pay. Certainly, these jobs may be tempting to the young worker, says LCC Career Information Center Coordinator Jean Conklin. But for at least two reasons she believes a young person should attend college, and his/her long-term goals should include liberal arts groundwork. • First, employment and advancement possibilities increase with liberal arts schooling. "In all jobs there's a grounding in liberal arts," says Conklin. In fact, she reports that many employers in careeroriented professions are looking for a strong liberal arts background in applicants, and they will then train people onthe-job. The connection between a college education and advancement isn't always clear to people in low-paying service sector • jobs, admits Conklin. "We see people in here (the Career Information Center) all the time who've gone to high school a long time ago, are waiters or waitresses, then laid off or out of work right now, and some of them want to go into administrative positions. No chance. They're stuck unless they go back and get that education.'' • Second, a student would benefit from a liberal arts education outside of the employment realm, says Conklin. "Too many people make the connection between education and jobs, but not education and life." The need to enjoy their surroundings, culture, and get along well with other people is important to a person's happiness, says Conklin. How do students plan their future -- considering the employment trends of the next 20 years? First, advises Conklin, they should determine what they need right now to get into the current employment market. It might be only obtaining skills needed to flip hamburgers. But at the same time, the student should be considering long-range goals and "prime" her/himself for change, so when new opportunities or unforeseen circumstances arise, she/he is able to step into something else. Conklin says an example of a long-range goal might be obtaining a bachelor's degree in fitness management, or some other field . Conklin' s advice to older students is quoted in this month's Better Homes and Gardens magazine -- but applies to people of all ages. "Be reflective and introspective to see what you want out of life. Start out by talking to a counselor -- we help people with goal setting. At LCC, she tells students to study a wide variety of liberal arts classes. This would include English composition, history, sociology, philosophy, literature, and political science. She also recommends computer science and keyboarding classes in order to help students become technically literate.· "If you get a person who has been locked into an eight to five job for 25 years, and then throw him/her out of work, that person is lost. But a person with a more broad-based background is more adaptable, and is a human being who can handle change, Conklin concludes. 11 11 IN SPAIN SEME STER ADVANCE D) (BEGINNE R OR Not just for Spanish majors only, but for everyone: beginners, "in between" students, and advanced.

The TORCH Page 5 SR C question of the week SRC Question of the Week: What do you think of the evangelical scandal? • The sanctimonious fools who say that they are doing God's work, while milking people for all the money they can, make me wonder what God really thinks of them. Some things we (the people) just find too unsettling. Not me. I am, and intend to remain, my own man. • Look in the mirror and you will see the only true living God. • The people have done equal harm to Christianity as the Rajneeshes did to Eastern religions. Equal time. • ALL RIGHT! • I think that it is extremely funny and very fitting. • It illustrates what some of us already knew to be the truth about most TV evangelists. • I believe the money-mongering scams these pseudo-christians have contrived spit in the face of God. • It is the way of Karma that each action is rewarded or rebuked. It is only a matter of time. • It' s about time their true colors showed through. • The moralistic bigots' capactiy for selfdelusion and hypocracy knows no bounds. Witness Oral Roberts' overblown, selfserving hype. Mine is the God of happiness. When I make someone happy, I am serving my God. The Lord I serve does not expect me to give contribution to the ones who think of themselves as having the ortly path to happiness after life, and only if one has paid all the right fees. • I am not the least bit surprised about the incidences leading to, and surrounding the evangelical scandal. It has become a revival of the big tent. A three-ring circus of related events, with Master of Ceremonies Jerry Falwell introducing his motley flock of performers. In ring number one -- Oral Roberts as the death-defying stuntman who braves it all. In ring number three, Jimmy Swaggert and his bevie of beauties, proving that you're never too old for something ''new.'' And in the center ring -- the starring attraction and new household word, Jimmy Bakker riding bareback on his philly. If you are interested in answering the question of the week, there is a new question every Monday at the Student Resource Center. If you would like to submit a question of the week, all submissions are considered. RJFI from page 1 _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ __ "RIFed." It is important for employees to have adequate time to find other positions, either on campus or elsewhere, believes Alvergue. ''We insisted that we be given the names (in midMarch); the college said that they didn't give them to us because they did not know them," Alvergue says. But, '' for whatever reason, the college decided to come forward'' with the names of those who may be included in the RIF. . . ~lvergue says they_ did this without acknowledging th at they were required to do so in the contract. ''We have a difference of opinion with LC CEA over just what those obligations are," says Mills. On March 20, Vice President of Instruction Jacquee Belcher provided LCCEA with the names from her division; Jack Carter did the same on March 24. A total of 27 employees were named (20 FTE), all from faculty, says Alvergue. An attempt was made by the LCCEA to notify those people before Spring Break. ''They have not been formally 'RIFed.' They will be when they are formally notified in early June," if indeed the Administration decides that the RIF is necessary, he says. In addition to the disagreement over the notification procedure, Alvergue feels that faculty and instructors are being unfairly singled out for the proposed RIF. ''What (LCCEA) is asking for is fair and proportionate cuts '' both in faculty and non~faculty areas of the college. In addition the LC CEA believes the 'administration should be able to provide any names of staff other than faculty who may be "RIFed". "They are very precise about faculty cuts. It seems that they could be just as precise about cuts in other areas of the college," he says. President's List honors students with a 4.00GPA I kuko Nancy Karen Robin Larry Apple Adach I R.

What I do isn't deviant from the norm - it is the most practical and straightforward way to go through life. I wear black because it doesn't show the dirt when it's dirty. People don't give me dirty looks 'cause they're intimidated.'' 11 Vince, Age is not important.

Even Steve Garvey has offered to purchase the Padres from owner Joan Crock. There are books about the good ol' days of baseball,. days of Babe Ruth, Leo Deroucher, and others. The players of yester-year would probably be emharassed to take more than $1,000 a year -- let alone $1.5 million. In case you haven't guessed, or heard, the major league season started on April 6, with original umpires intact. Although it's settled now, the umpires were threatening to strike. But hey, those umps have it rough, standing on their feet all day, straining their eyeballs to see which side the little white ball lands on. And those home plate umps, they have to put up with 70-90 mph fastballs. What is an ump to do? Negotiate a new contract, of course. Rookie umpires were asking for a beginning salary of $40,000 and Veteran umps, (those with 25 years or more) wanted over $100,000. No wonder the players are getting bolder about contract negotiations, higher salary requests, and arbitration. I guess I'll take in some ESP little league games, instead. I'll avoid the boredom and see some little kids play the game that they love. Young children, you see, are innocent. They don't ask for $1.5 million, or even $25 for their services.

Bolkan TORCH Staff Writer Lane opened the 1987 men's track season by defeating Clackamas and Mount Hood in a tight triangular meet April 4. According to Lane coach Harland Yriarte, the win was a surprise. ''We do have some outstanding people, but our lack of depth is a problem." Versatile Lance Lehne was most the of one "outstanding" athletes for Lane, as he single-handedly made up for the Titans' lack of depth. In his first collegiate meet, Lehne muscled to win in the shot put, discus, and hammer, then sped away from the field to win the 110-meter hurdles. He was suprised at his sucLance Lehne made up for the Titan's lack of depth with vic- cess. "I didn't expect to do tories in the shot put, discus, hammer, and 110-meter so well, so soon,'' he claims. hurdles. Lehne feels that his performances were not truly impressive, for him. "I threw free legal services much better in warm-ups for registered LCC students than in the actual competition."

First league victory gives Titan baseball an emotional lift by Val Brown TORCH Sports Editor With a strong pitching effort from Greg Johnson, the Titans were able to break into . the win column with a 11-1 victory over Clackamas Community College in the first game of a league doubleheader at Lane Tuesaday, April 7. ''It was our best five consecutive innings in league play," said Steve Wolf, the Titans' assistant coach. Lane scored 11 runs on eight hits, and only committed one error. Andy Johnson hit his first home run of the season off the center field fence, while the Titans also got good hitting performances from Al Pratt and Kenny Nichols, both two for three at the plate. Johnson (2-2 overall) threw all five innings of the first game which was called in the fifth inning because of the ten run rule. He gave up only two hits, striking out five. Lane came out on the short end of the second game, losing 2-1. Cliff Nelson (2-2 overall) threw a complete game, giving up two walks and striking out five.

Over 2 million Americans suffer from this widely misunderstood disorder. It is a malfunction of the central nervous system in which ·abnormal electrical discharges from the brain cause seizures. Today, 80 percent of people with epilepsy can be totally or almost totally freed from symptoms through continuing treatment. While scientists know how seizures occur, they still do not know why. Damage to the central nervous system before, during, or after birth; defects in the brain present at birth; head injuries at any age; ingestion of poisons including lead and alcohol; diseases such as measles and encephalitis; disorders of the circulatory system; brain tumors and poor nutrition are all related to epilepsy. There are three main types of epileptic seizures: "Generalized tonic-clonic" -- the most severe type, in which the body stiffens and shakes with violent jerks. They are not dangerous unless continuous (over five minutes). '' Generalized non-convulsive'' • • known as "blank spells" and commonly mistaken for daydreaming. "Partial" -- periods of mental confusion followed by pointless movements. The majority of Americans are misinformed of proper first aid for epileptic seizures. If someone has a tonic-clonic seizure, REMAIN CALM. Don't try to restrain or revive the person. If he/she is seated when the seizure starts, ease him/her to the floor. Remove any hazards that can cause injuries. Loosen tight clothing, but don't try artificial respiration. Check airways to be sure mouth and nose are clear, but never try to force the mouth open or hold down the tongue. Don't call a doctor or ambulance unless the person seems to have one attack after another, without regaining consciousness .. When the seizure ends, let the person rest or sleep if he/ she wishes. Be calm and reassuring, as the person may feel embarrassed or disoriented after an attack.

In other board business, Paul Colvin, acting vice president of Administrative Services, presented the financial report on college operations through Feb. 28, 1987. Changes in revenues include a decrease in state reimbursemen t as a result from the decline in the Full Time Enrollment (FTE), and a further reduction in interest income. Local tax payments have been higher than budgeted, though, running 2-3 percent ahead of last year. However, shortfalls are still expected in other categories, and "revenues are way below what was budgeted,'' says Colvin. "We will be initiating controls which will reduce those projected deficits.''
