In an effort to centralize information services and admission processes, LCC may build
a Student Services Hub on the
second floor of the Center
Building next year.

One location under informal study would be the offices, rooms, and darkrooms
in 205 Center, currently occupied by the TORCH and
Mass Communication Department.

The Hub would "provide a
highly visible central information center and centralize services credit students use in
their initial contact with
LCC'' to facilitate student
flow into the college, according to the proposal presented
by Student Services Title III
Coordinator John Winquist.

Marshall concedes that a
potential problem is congestion on the second floor, particularly if the Hub included
the Photo ID service. Instead
of spreading the traffic out
across the various departments
on campus, all students would
pass through a potential bottleneck in the Hub area.

It would contain microoffices from departments such
as Admissions, Counseling,
Registration, and Financial
Services,
providing a
"one-stop service center" for
student business on campus.

Marshall says he feels it's
too early to examine the financial side of the project. But the
school has allotted $50,000
from 1989-90 serial levy
money for the project, and the
campus Planning Task Force
has recommended that
$36,000 be earmarked for the
project in next year's budget.
The $36,000 would cover
salaries for two Hub
employees for six months,
Marshall says.

However, Bob Marshall,
vice president for Student Services, says the project is by no
means a definite prospect. He
says that "where we are right
now is determining whether or
not it's even possible" to find
the space for the project.
'' After we get to the point
where we have established that
it's possible to free up space to
accommmodate that, I
think . . . we would sit down
with the involved parties, including students, and do
basically a feasibility study,"
,, '

$50-60,000, but says this does
not include the cost of

Fourteen candidates filed for 1989-90
ASLCC offices and will begin campaigning
May 1 for the May 14-17 elections.
Two teams will vie for president and vicepresident: Ko Lynn Dornan and Lynn JohannaLarson will face Andy Harris and Magdelene
Ang.
The position of treasurer is being solely pursued by Ivan Frishberg.
Campaigning for cultural director are
Theresa Black Owl and Randy Brown.
Candidates for positions as senators are Scott
Derickson, Marcia Sullivan, Matt Terwilliger,
Bette Dorris, William Lowery, Albert Kee,
Chuck Doerr, Noa O'Hare and Fredrick
Thorp.
Following the filing deadline and verification, the candidates were given an orientation
to the election guidelines and procedures by
Rex Jemison and a photo session by the
TORCH. A Voter's Pamphlet, which will include the candidates' platforms and photos, is
to follow in the next issue of the TORCH.

as computer terminals or
phone hookups in the Hub
space.
ASLCC Pres. John Millet
says he dislikes the Hub idea
because it continues a trend of
displacing
student-run
organizations from high traffic areas of the school.
Marshall says it might be
possible to hold the project
until a student union is built to
house the TORCH, ASLCC,
and other services like the
Women's Center. However,
he is hesitant about putting off
the Hub project for what he
sees as a distant possibilty.
"Any time you take a look
at functions that involve
students -- whether that's admissions or testing or
counseling -- those areas need
to be in as close proximity as
we can make them," he says.
"No one wants to move, obviously, but you have to
establish priorities.''
Millet also thinks the school
isn't taking cost considerations into account enough.
''For a bunch of people
operating under a really tight
budget constraint, they sure
don't act like it," he says.
''There are hidden costs about
everything. It's not that you
should know every hidden
cost, it's that you should be
upfront about the costs you do
have, especially when you're
doing a feasibility study." •

The Styrofoam Use Committee met on March 9 and April 17
to discuss the different options involving the use of Styrofoam
products at LCC.
The charge of the committee was to review and evaluate the
available data on Styrofoam and to make recommendations
regarding the use or banning of Styrofoam for Food Services on
the LCC campus.
The IO-member committee came up with the following findings:
• The Styrofoam used by LCC Food Services does not contain
chlorofluorocarbons (CFCs), nor are CFCs released in its
manufacture.
• There is no consensus on the scientific evidence that nonCFC containing Styrofoam has a more negative environmental
impact than the alternatives used for hot foods and drinks.
• LCC has a need for single use hot food and beverage containers for persons wishing to remove food from the cafeteria.
• LCC has an obligation as a teaching institution and as a
citizen of this planet to utilize natural resources in an environmentally positive manner.
From these findings the committee proposed that LCC adopt
a pro-environmental stance by minimizing the use of all
disposable food containers and by replacing Styrofoam where
more environmentally sound alternatives could be used.
The committee agreed that Food Services should place food
on reuseable dishes unless requested as takeout and proposed
that a system allowing people to use their personal coffee cups in
the cafeteria be instituted.
Other specific recommendations included eliminating nonessential packaging, seeking out and using non-Styrofoam and
more environmentally sound alternatives where possible, and offering patrons a choice of either Styrofoam or paper cups for
their hot beverages.
The committee acknoweleges that some of these actions may
result in higher prices to the consumer, but that the costs will be
well worth it.
For future action, the committee recommended that LCC
establish a college-wide organization to address and make
recommendations regarding other environmental issues.

'Ghost' writer
To -the Editor:
In the TORCH recently
there have been some letters
attacking ASLCC Pres. John
Millet and the student government. The letters upset me
very much because I think very
highly of John and quite a few
people in the ASLCC.
They have helped me
through some difficult
academic problems that would
not have been resolved
without their persistent efforts. I encourage anyone with
academic problems to seek
their caring help.
l was planning on writing a
letter in support of John and
the ASLCC, but something
happened last week that preempts writing more about my
own feelings.
While t~lking with one of

the authors of a letter attacking John and the ASLCC, she
confessed to me that she
hadn't even written her letter
but had merely signed her
name to it.
I was quite shocked and
questioned why she would do
such a thing. Her reply was
that she was asked to sign the
letter by someone who felt he
couldn't sign it because he was
too close to the situation. (He
still had to work with John on
ASLCC issues.) Since the
signer trusted the writer's opinion, she signed the letter.
I now highly question the
authenticity of any letters attacking John and the ASLCC.
Are there more people out
there with personal vendettas
manipulating their friends and
using the TORCH to fight
their battles for them against
John and the ASLCC?

Be sure of facts
To the Editor:
I would like to take this opportunity to address the letter
written to the TORCH by
Robelyn Laverty.
Ms. Laverty appears not to
know the circumstances concerning senate positions and
how these positions are filled.
When I became interested in
student government I took the
time and went to the ASLCC
office. The day I walked into
that office I knew no one on
student government. I asked
how I could get involved. I
was informed of two open
senate positions.
The evidence of students
having a voice was by the
students signing my petition,
which consisted of 100
signatures. Furthermore, I had
never met John Millet before
entering the ASLCC office.
Ms. Laverty said, "In the
last two terms, the four senate
seats were filled by people who
have . been classmates of Mr.
Millet." Wrong!
In the last two terms I have
never had a class with Mr.
Millet. Ms. Laverty has never
met me or talked with me.
I am the newest appointed
senator, so how could she really know what she is talking
about? I was never invited to
the senate by anyone. Ms.
Laverty' s letter refl~ ts on my

Creating a student services "hub" -- a place where students
could conduct the business end of their LCC education quickly
and efficiently -- may be a good idea for some time in the
future, but is currently not a practical proposal.
_ The Hub Project (see story page 1) could ease the confusion of
the admissions process, smoothing students' entry into the college since all necessary departments would have desks in one
place, but it could also create more problems than it would
solve.
Funding problems are only the beginning of a list which includes congestion in an already-crowded area, lack of individual
attention to students, and removal of student-run services from
easily accessible areas.
The bottleneck created by such a project would be horrendous. Since the Photo ID desk may be part of the Hub, all returning and incoming students would have to pass through it at
the beginning of every term. Ultimately the Hub might produce
severe time delays and more confusion than the current admissions process now causes.
The new process also assigns an unpleasant attitude to dealing
with students -- an attitude which treats people as animals to be
herded through a formatted process with as little individual attention as possible. This seems self-defeating since the project is
theoretically designed to help students.
It also continues the trend of eliminating student-run services
such as the ASLCC (which was "temporarily" moved to its current fourth floor offices in 1982) and the TORCH (which is being targeted as a possible site for the HUB) from easily accessible, high-traffic areas of campus.
If LCC had a stu-dent union where these programs
could be located it might be a good idea to turn the Center
Building into an efficient if impersonal student relations arm of
the administration. But to eliminate student-run programs from
high visibility areas and •replace them with a slick, formatted
system would be a sad mistake for a school that is supposed to
serve the community.
The most practical question, however, is how the Hub Project
will be funded.
The proposal was drafted through funds provided by a Title
III grant, but the actual project would require other revenue
sources. Money for the project would probably come from the
serial levy designated for program construction and
maintenance. With the college in its current financial straits this
scarcely seems like a responsible use of money; other programs
on campus deserve attention before the Hub.
The preliminary cost estimate is $50-60,000, but this seems extremely optimistic considering the cost not only of the project
itself but of building new offices and darkrooms to replace those
which would be displaced by the project.
Even after the Hub was completed other costs would be accrued, since it would require a supervisor and, potentially, other
employees.
No real cost examinations have been made; Vice Pres. of Student Services Bob Marshall says it is premature to look at costs
before determining whether it is physically possible, but it seems
that cost should be the primary factor concerning feasibility at a
time when the school is grasping at straws to maintain financial
solvency.
But if the administration would hold off and sit on the project
for a few years it could ultimately be a great success. The
ASLCC is currently examining the possibility of building an
LCC student union which could be built to accommodate the
TORCH, ASLCC, Women's Center, Veteran's Center,
ASLCC-run Photo ID, and perhaps the bookstore, as well as
lounge areas. This would leave most of the second° floor of the
Center Building free for an ultra-efficient administrative hub.
When this student union has been built and when LCC's
depressed budget has recovered, it will be time to think about
streamlining the admissions process, but currently it would be
nothing more than a waste of resources and a sacrifice of the
human side of LCC.

Correction
In the April 21 TORCH the Editorial headline mistakenly identified the budget committee as the tuition committee.
A letter to the editor from Rob Kowalewski, vice president of the Dissabled Advisory Coalition, in the April 21
TORCH, should also have included "The coalition is a
non-profit 501(c) (3) community based organization .... "
and "We have also been involved in housing and accessibility issues."
The TORCH apologizes for these mistakes.

character, which I personally
find offensive. I am a concerned student and I took the time
to be resourceful plus the time
and energy to become involved.
I would advise Ms. Laverty

she so openly expresses her
opinion.

ASLCC Senator

Focus on campus
To the Editor:
I have been reading the
(letters to the Editor) about
John Millet, our current student body president, and I
would like to express my opinion about John .
John Millet is a determined
man , who sets high goals, but
he does almost anything to
reach these goals. He appears
to be either uninformed or not
totally honest in his methods
of carrying out his charge of
'
office.
Being a former ASLCC
senator, and having communicated with John and his
co-workers and good friends
Andy Harris, senator; Mike
Stewart, cultural director;
Serene Spiker, former
treasurer, they have not been
totally honest or they are
misinformed about issues and
rumors that have been (said)
about ASLCC members. They
have railroaded issues through
the senate with little information and no campus support.
John Millet has criticized me
for using a polling system to
find students' point of view on
issues. He has told me and
other people that he feels laws
should start with the top
(president) and work down
through the system, to the
people. This means that the
laws or topics he proposes are
his point of view and not
necessarily the LCC student
point of view.
Laws should begin with the
people and be followed by our
representatives.
He and his co-workers
should spend more time on
campus issues rather than
world-wide topics. They
should focus on child care, litter on campus, maybe decorations or making our school
look more presentable. We
need an (emergency) school
fund system and other topics
that have been ignored for the
glamourous issues. They
should represent valid student
body concerns rather than
their own personal issues.
I believe John Millet
monopolizes the ASLCC
senate. Mike Stewart, Andy
Harris, and other members of
the senate are good friends
and almost always vote the
same way on a controversial
issue in the senate. They have
the same general beliefs. Many
senators were introduced by
them .
My question to them is why
haven't they contacted
students on campus and asked
our points of view on issues
that John and his co-workers

_ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ __

propose.
In order to solve these problems in the future, I urge
more of you, the LCC
students, to take part in this
year's elections and visit the
ASLCC senate meetings, so
that true representatives may
find the majority's best interest on campus. We, the people, need to be concerned
about our elected officials
especially in the Federal
Government so that our
freedoms and opinions will be
preserved.
Do we want people like
John Millet to represent us?

Bucks passed up
To the Editor:
In response to the editorial
of April 14 regarding the SRC,
I feel if the ''Pass the Buck''
information is so important,
then why has it taken the
TORCH three months to comment on it?
I asked the SRC Director if
the TORCH has requested the
"Pass the Buck" forms. She
said she was asked to the hold
the Pass the Buck information
until the TORCH had more
room. When I asked if I
should write a letter complaining about the article in the
TORCH, her comment was
that "the editorial had overall
constructive suggestions and
was positive.'' But I feel that
some of the inaccuracies
should be corrected and
clarified.

Game reply
To the Editor:
On reading Bunny Jenison's
letter ''Match Compassion''
(Register-Guard, Feb. 2,
1989) I phoned a zoologist at
Oregon State University who
assured me bunnies have teeth.
An Australian confirmed one
person's "bunny" could
become a national plague -- if
creatively pregnant.
Pleased that Bunny Jenison
realizes atheists are citizens, a
fact that escapes Pres. George
Bush, I wondered: "How to
respond to Bunny?''
Since my letters didn't
register with Bunny, I consulted a bibliographical list of
freethought essays by eminent
scholars with greater skill -something by Fox, Wolf,
Owl, Hawkins?
Reflection suggested such
authors were unsuitable. Owls
operate nocturnally -- a
timeframe inappropriate for
my target. Such approach
might also misattribute a
violent nature to me. The
"carrot" rather than the
"stick" -- gentleness and
humor -- was right for Bunny.
Suddenly the solution
dawned -- Walker! David E.
Walker, Ph.D., author of The
Poverty of Faith, the best concise explanation why it is important for each individual to

rationally consider opposing
arguments for the theist
religious beliefs they hold.
Thousands of religious essays
have been written about
"Faith," each more mystifying than the last. Walker
covers the subject masterfully
in four pages.
Walker can promenade
Bunny through the linguistic
pitfalls of religious faith -revealing the illogical
argumentative traps scornfully
exploited by predators dressed
in clerical garb.
Readers can obtain a free
copy of Walker's essay by
mailing a (SASE) business
envelope to P .0. Box 3591;
Univ. Stn. ; Eugene, Or.
97403.
One nightmare persists. In
the recesses of memory
rumbles a 280 lb. football
tackle with an unprounceable
Polish name and the nickname
"Bunny." I'd better alert
Walker.

This is the response I got out
of the Financial Aid Office the
next eight out of approximately 11 times I went there ..
I was extremely concerned
about this particular form
because I filed it at the last
minute for the spring term. I
knew that it had to be filled
out correctly if I was to get any
help for this term. The mistake
I made was that I put my income on the line where income
taxes paid went; therefore, the
form showed I had zero income for 1987 and was eligible
for financial aid.
I received correspondence
shortly after filing my F AF
showing that I was eligible for
a Pell Grant. With this in
mind, I went about getting involved in non-paying activities
such as the sub-committee for
the (LCC) Administrative Services budget.
Last Monday, April 17, I
once again checked on my
financial aid and was told that
I would have a check in a couple of weeks.

Free speech

On Thursday, April 20, I
received a letter stating that I
was not only not eligible for a
Pell Grant, I wasn't eligible
for any of the various student
loans such as the GSL, NDSL,
or the Perkins Loan. All of a
sudden I went from financial
security, to scrambling to
figure out how I was going to
pay for this term's tuition and
books.
I asked my financial aid adviser how come this mistake
wasn't caught when I asked
the person at the front dest to
go over my financai aid form?
Her reply was that some
businesses and some people
pay all their income out for
taxes and therefore (it) wasn't
as blatant of a mistake as I
thought it was.
My response to that is, when
is the last time you saw a
business going to school, and
how many people do you
know that pay out 100 percent
of their income for taxes?
Financial aid is one of the
first obstacles a person atsee Letters, page 11

To the Editor:
This letter is in regards to
John F. Piper's column where
he proudly described his use of
intimidation to stop a man
from publicly expressing his
viewpoint .
How dare Mr. Piper title his
article ''Tactics for choice''
when he denied a man his
choice to exercise his
unalienable right to freedom
of speech? It's beyond
ludicrous that a writer for a
public newspaper could act in
such a manner.
Mr. Piper's actions would
lead ine to believe that he
thinks that only he has a right
to express himself. His article
would have been far more effective in influencing me if (he
had) stuck to logic and the
issues.
A title of Nazi tactics often
effective would have been far
more appropriate.

Aid forms
To the Editor:
Recently, I have experienced
an unpleasant and unnecessary
surprise in regards to my
eligibility for financial aid.
I made a mistake in filling
out my financial aid form
(FAF) which is understandable. These forms are complicated and hard to understand. The very prospect of filling out these forms often
daunts even the hardiest of
souls. After grappling with
this perplexing form I took it
to the Financial Aid Office
and asked if someone would
go over it with me to ensure
that it was filled out correctly.
The person at the front desk
looked at it, saw that all the
appropriate blanks were filled
out, and told me (they'd) be in
touch if there is a problem.

Europe to unify for 'Internal Market' economy
1992 to herald a common European
market carrying clout globally
Commentary by
John T. Orrigo

The v1s1on is about to
become reality. Europe will
merge into a harmonious,
deregulated market, free from
trade barriers, to embrace
mutually recognized industry
standards. This is not a dream.
This is Jan. 1, 1992.
That's the date when a landmark in European economic
history is to occur -- the birth
of a unified European market
that will be known to the
world as the '' Internal
Market."
Worried by slackening
economic activity, nsrng
unemployment, and increasing
competition from the Far
East, the European Economic
Community (EEC) in 1986
passed the Single European
Act which creates, by 1992, a
truly common market -- one
guaranteeing free movement
of people, goods, services, and
capital from country to country, with no internal frontiers.
In short, it is to be a Europe
powerful enough to make its
economic weight felt on global
markets.
But what remains to be seen
is whether the unification will
spur sales growth, or slow it.
ill it, in fact, create a freeor-all, deregulated market, or
will it mean death to small
companies as the global giants
take a bigger share of the pie?

The EEC -- encompassing
West Germany, France,
Belgium, Denmark, Greece,
Ireland, Italy, Luxembourg,
the Netherlands, Portugal,
Spain, and the United
Kingdom -- will have to buckle
down and get to work because
1992 will mean demolishing
age-old internal trade barriers
and price supports. The upshot will be a giant
homegeneous market, like
those of the U.S. and Japan.
The consensus in financial
markets now, without the
EEC, is for a moderate but
continuing rate of long-term
world economic expansion~
But some of the biggest
European industries plainly
confess that a true community
is essential for their survival.
With 15 million people out of
work in the EEC countries, for
example, anything that promises more jobs is attractive.
According to a World Press
Review study, the completion
of the EEC would create 2 to 5
million new jobs in the
medium term, and a noninflationary growth rate of 5
to 7 percent.
The EEC will almost certainly make Western European firms more formidable
competitors in the world
market.
A united Europe will offer
a bigger and freer market. An
economically . united Europe

Watch out for
drinking drivers.

(and ultimately a politically
united Europe) are among the
best things that could happen
to the Free World.
How could this be?

Some experts even go so far
as to say an open Europe will
benefit non-Europeans most.

And finally, what impact
will Europe of 1992 have on
the cultural differences of each
country? It is probably safe to
say that some cultures will
tend to dominate others, and
regrettably some small special
parts of each culture will be
lost.
Realize, though, that in exchange each country will
become a stronger political,
economical, and influential
part of the world. Each country is ready and willing to lose
a little in hopes that Europe
will win a lot.

Since voters rejected the college's request for increased
funding, LCC must find more
money or live within its current budget.
I would like to offer some
analysis and possible solutions
to this problem. These solutions will be in addition to the
most obvious remedies of putting the shortfall on Mastercard or applying to Japan for
foreign aid.
If the institution remains
within its current budget, instructors will not receive salary
increases, or some part-time
teachers will be laid off, or
class sizes will increase.
Now, I realize a class size of
no more than 150 students
seems at first a simple and
viable solution, but an alternative exists which seems to be
equally palatable to our collegiate educators.
I suggest our instructors
dress in colorful and flowing
garments and solicit funds at
the airport for a few hours a
week. In addition to the
revenue this proven method
could generate, the public relations impact abounds with
potential. Consider the effect
on future budget elections,
and the value of this proposal
becomes self-evident.
A more likely prescription
for the budget involves money
from tuition hikes or additional fees.
However, why raise tuition
when a fee over and above the
current student body fee,
registration fee, computer lab

fee, grade change fee, adds
and credit increases fee, computer testing fee, book and
materials fee, shop equipment
use fee, mechanics lab fee,
film fee, , transportation fee,
P .E. fee, etc., etc. would most
likely never be noticed?
Or "user fees," such as the
recently rejected parking fee,
could be pursued.
For instance, a "knobby
knee fee'' for those men over
40 who insist on wearing short
pants and thus expose
everyone else to a set of legs
which would embarrass any
land traversing animal. Or impose a "sloppy tee fee" for
others of us who sport those
tee shirts with pictures and
messages which qualify as
outrageous, obscene, or
obscure. You know the ones I
mean. They say something like
''Trickle down really means
• tinkled on" or they picture a
logger about to eat a spotted
owl sandwich.
If we enumerated only the
fees which could be added or
the sacrifices made by students
or staff, we would miss the
most creative solutions to the
impending money problem -earned money!
Let's do more with what we
have already.
Imagine the skyrocketing
sales at the school store if between the Oregon sweatshirts
and the coffee cups with pictures of cute little bears they
featured a rack of intimate
leisure wear by Divine of San
Francisco. Or picture the
calculators and floppy disks
making way for a glass and

chrome refrigerator stocked
with a complete selection of
frosty brew and chilled wine
coolers.
There are more earned
money ideas, too.
Let's award student government seats to the highest bidder. It's a public method
which avoids the unnecessary
expense of an apathetic election and almost guarantees the
motivation to complete a term
in an office which is rarely
consulted anyway. It's like
found money!
However, I know some people will object to funding
education by selling student
government positions. Those
people I ask to ponder well the
fact that not so many years
ago the state lottery was an illegal numbers game run by
organized crime -- and today
it represents a funding source
of evolving significance for
grade schools across the country. Think about it.
The possibilities for earned
The
money are endless.
Science Department could set
up a table in the Center

And of course my choice for

Budgetary problems exist,
but funding solutions abound.

At a press conference in Salem on Thursday, April 19,
Oregon State Attorney David Frohnmeyer, citing current
Oregon adoption law, gave his professional opinion that
surrogate motherhood contracts are unenforceable in
Oregon.
The request for a decision on the question came from
Oregon State Senator Larry Hill, D - Eugene/ Springfield,
who has been involved with the issue of surrogate
motherhood for several months.
In March of this year, Hill introduced a bill proposing to
ban surrogate motherhood in Oregon, calling it ''one cottage industry that Oregon does not need." He's issued
press releases detailing his activities in pursuit of the ban.
The question of the ethical justifiability of surrogate
motherhood first came to national and international attention in 1987, when Mary Beth Whitehead refused a $10,000
fee from the couple whose child she had borne and refused
to relinquish.
It was a case of contract law, and it went to court in New
York. People began choosing sides. Is surrogate
motherhood potentially degrading to women, or is it an acceptable means whereby otherwise sterile couples might
produce a child?
The court, and popular opinion, came down on the side
Senator Hill
of Whitehead, the defendant in the case.
and Attorney General Frohnmeyer seem to agree that
Whitehead had a case, even though she breached a contract involving a child who was not hers, even though she,
a woman capable of producing children, deprived an infertile couple of their chance to do the same.
It's a good thing, though, that Frohnmeyer's decision
obviates the questionable need for Hill's legislation -- that
particular bill uses the specific phrase "child not yet
born," in boldface type, several times, and might have set
a dangerous precedent regarding the legal status of fertilized zygotes in Oregon.
That precedent could realistically have been construed as
an overt threat to women's rights to safe and legal abortions in this state.
It is an interesting sidelight on this story that one of
Hill's aides, Vicki Walker, is a former surrogate mother.
Surrogate motherhood, the Baby M/Whitehead case
notwithstanding, is an issue of reproductive rights that cuts
across the gender line. Perhaps regulating it under contract
law was a bad idea.
But is the state justified in abridging the rights of infertile couples to seek (and pay for) assistance in conceiving a
child? Is the state justified in deciding for all women that it
is not in their best interests to enter into surrogate
motherhood contracts?
Can government or the courts afford to dictate anyone's
best interests?
Are Senator Hill and Attorney General Frohnmeyer
even aware that these questions exist?

National first place awards for TORCH, Denali
by Malcolm Kamloops
TORCH Staff Writer

Both of LCC's student publications took
top honors in the annual American Scholastic
Press Association competition, as did individual staff members.
For the seventh consecutive year the
TORCH won "First Place with Special
Merit" ranking for overall excellence, sharing
the title with three other student newspapers
in the community college division. With the
TORCH were the Cuestonian newspaper of
Cuesta Community College, San Louis
Obispo, CA; the Occurence of Oakton Community College, Des Plains, IL; and the Collegiate Challenge of Tacoma Community College.
TORCH staff writers also earned "Best
Feature" awards for separate but related
stories in the Dec. 2 issue on Lane County's
homeless people. Sports Editor Paul Morgan
analyzed the plight of the homeless families,

Bob Walter focused on homeless teenagers,
and TORCH Editor Alice Wheeler reported
on homeless women and children.
Wheeler's editorial, "Low-income housing
issue is local and national,'' in that same issue
won "Best Editorial" recognition.
And LCC graphic arts student Marg Shand
won in the "Best Cartoon" category for the
second consecutive year.
"Year after year we have intelligent, hardworking reporters, photographers, graphic
artists, and production team members" said
newswriting adviser Pete Peterson. "Why are
we consistently good? I think LCC's general
reputation attracts them to begin with. Once
they're here, the student-run newspaper gives
them the chance to experiment and develop."
Denali, LCC's student literary and art
magazine, won first place among community
college entrants. Judges complimented Editor ·
Michael Omogrosso and his staff for a
publication that shows "a great deal of time,
energy and talent."

Enrollment increases
by Jodie Palmer
TORCH Staff Writ er

Enrollment at LCC continues to rise, according to
statistics from Student Admissions.
Figures from the Admissions Office show that the
number of enrolled students
for spring term is 6,896, up
over 3 percent from last year's
spring term enrollment of
6,674.
Sharon Moore, supervisor
of Registration/ Admissions,
says that the recent surges in
enrollment speak well of the
new programs and show .some
renewal of community interest
for LCC.
''People are starting to
recognize LCC as more than a
vocational school,'' says
Moore. "I think that what's
really turning us around is the
college transfer programs."
Moore says the figures show

a rise in part-time as well as
full-time students. She adds
that LCC' s part-time figures
are following a national trend.
"More and more students
are taking more than two years
to get their degrees, as less and
less federal aid is available.
This trend is true for college
transfer as well as vocational
programs.''
Moore sees this increase in
enrollment as a good sign in
light of the failed tax base proposal on last November's
ballot and in view of the upcoming budget cutting proposals.
''Students are still choosing
LCC over other alternatives
for education. Even with a
change in the tuition structure
or a rise in tuition, I see that
students will still be able to
find an equal -- or better -education here for half the
price of other colleges and
universities.''

Ceremony changes from last year

Graduation at Fairgrounds

TO RC H Staff Writ er

Pomp and circumstance time is fast approaching LCC. Students planning to graduate .
on Friday, June 2 must submit graduation applications by Friday, May 5 to the Student
Records office if they want their name on the
program, says Sally Meadow, administrative
assistant of Student Activities.
Some changes have been made this year, according to Meadow. First, graduation
ceremonies will take place at the Lane County
Fairgrounds Exhibit Hall instead of the Hult
Center to accommodate more guests, she says.
Meadow states there will be enough space for
graduates to bring their families.
Second, students have the option to purchase
their caps and gowns this year for $8, and those
that do will be given a free graduation mug.
Finally, a High School Completion student
and a faculty member join the speaking list.

Graduation announcements are on sale in the
bookstore, and caps and gowns may be picked
up there May 30 - June 2. The bookstore closes
early on June 2. For more details contact
Bookstore Manager Georgia Henrickson.
Meadow says the ceremonies will be handicapped accessible and will have interpretation
for the hearing impaired.
• Arrival time for students at Exhibit
Hall -- 6:30 p.m.
• Ceremonies -- 7:30 p.m.
• Commencement speaker -- Bill Morrisette,
Mayor of Springfield
• Welcome speakers -- Larry Perry, LCC
Board of Education Chairperson; Jeff
Christensen, High School Completion student;
John Millet, ASLCC President; Faculty
Welcome speaker (unannounced at press time).
• Music -- Eugene Brass Quintet
"This promises to be the best graduation
yet,'' says Meadow.

Unlimited use of LTD buses
hits monetary road block
by Tom Nash

UofO."

TORCH Staff Wr iter

LCC students may be able
to use their student body cards
in place of costly bus fare if
negotiations between the
ASLCC and Lane Transit
District's marketing department are successful.
If approved, this program
would be similar to the one
recently adopted at the U of
0, where for a small student
fee paid at registration
students have unlimited access
to LTD buses.

Before the wheels of this
program can turn at LCC,
however, there are a few
roadblocks that need to be
overcome. '' Last year, LTD
made an offer,'' says ASL CC
Pres. John Millet. "The
amount that they wanted was
between $10.50 and $12 per
student per term, which is approximately 2 l /2 to 3 times as
much as they are paying at the

U of O students each pay a
$4.50 fee at registration which
is then given to LTD in exchange for bus service.
Why does LTD want at least
$10.50 per term from each
LCC student? According to
Ed Bergeron, marketing administrator for LTD, there is a
significantly larger amount of
LCC students who ride the bus
than U of O students. Last
year, according to "LTD
statistics, U of O students were
worth $185,000 in annual LTD
revenues. In contrast, LCC
students were worth about
$225,000.
So $225,000 is what LTD
would require for a year of bus
service at Lee; and according
to LTD's statistics, a student
fee of $10.50 to $12 per student per term would meet this
cost.
Millet believes that LTD's
statistics are wrong.

At his request, LTD is
reworking its statistics, and
the revised survey should be
completed by the end of April,
when talks are set to resume.
"I can see going to $5, $5.50,
maybe even $6, but once you
get that much disparity between us and what the U of 0
students are paying, I think
it's unfair," says Millet.
Meanwhile there currently
exists a program where LCC
students can purchase a term
bus pass for $40. These bus
passes can be purchased at the
LCC Bookstore or the LTD
Downtown Center on the
Mall.
Normally a student term
pass would cost $44, but the
ASLCC and LTD have an
agreement in which LTD matches every $2 that the ASLCC
puts toward passes. This is
why the LCC student pass is
$4 less than a regular student
pass. Non-students pay $51
for three months of bus service, Bergeron says.

NBA playoffs lack excitement
Yesterday morning I was sipping coffee
with my good friend, Newton Paycheck,
when a familiar argument began to brew.
"I can hardly wait until the NBA
playoffs start,'' said Newton.
Really? I didn't realize it was time to pull
out the T. V. arid sit through hours of
meaningless games, just to get to the meat
of the final championship series.
"How can you say that?" he asked as if I
had lost my mind once again.
Well, it's not that I don't like NBA
basketball: L.A. 's Magic Johnson dishing
out assists like George Bush handing out
defense contracts, or Utah's Mark Eaton
rejecting shots like the late night teller spits
back my bank card.
Then there is Chicago's Michael Jordon
defying gravity like a trapeze artist, and
who could forget Isiah Thomas and the
Detroit Pistons with their bad boy attitude,
always presented with a cunning smile.
But the whole process of weeding out an
NBA champion is long enough to envelop
the casual fan in complete boredom. It's a
blue-collar sport with a white-collar attitude ... i.e. let's make more money.
"Yea ... But the playoffs are starting
and the pressure is on for those guys to perfo rm well,'' Newton said as he sipped his
coffee.
What pressure? The problem with the
NBA is the playoffs could go on for a
month and a half. Because each round is a
series (3 out of 5 in the first round, and 4
out of 7 for the last three rounds) the
players aren't put in a pressure situation
for at least two games.
On top of that, the regular season is 84
~mes long, and 16 of the 25 teams in the

league go to the conference playoffs (that's
64 percent!). Where's the pressure when six
teams out of a seven team division go to the
playoffs?
All of the best battles for playoff spots
are fought by teams with .500 records.
YAWN.
The NBA just extends the playoffs to
make more money, voiding it of any excitement.
"But it's fun to see a team develop during the series," Paycheck persisted. "Like
if a player gets injured we get to see how
the team adjusts, or when a player who is
injured before the series comes in, we get to
see the impact he makes."
The advent of series' in the NBA all but
rules out upsets in the first few rounds, and
adds to the predictability of the playoffs.
Teams with less talent need to play outstan- ,
ding basketball for four games to beat the
perennial winners like the Lakers.
"That's the way it should be," asserted
Newton as he nodded his head defiantly.
No need for speculation in the NBA
playoffs this year, folks (like every other
year); Detroit and the Lakers in the finals
again. If we're lucky maybe Clevland and
Phoenix make it to the finals, but don't
count on it. I guess I'll go back to sleep.
• Jimmy "the Greek" Snyder wasn' t out
of line when he stated that blacks were bred
for physical excellence. As a matter of fact,
during the slavery years several states did
breed black people to create better
workers.
It seems that the network executives that
fired Jimmy were bred for racial ignorance.
Have a good weekend.

Titan bats come alive in 9-1 rout
by Paul Morgan

Both LCC track teams squelched their opponents at a Northwest Athletic Association of Community Colleges meet at
Clark C.C. Saturday, April 22 in Vancouver, Wash.
Sandy Church broke a personal record while winning the
200M with a time of 25. 7, and also got a PR in the 1OOM, clocking in at 12.5 for second place and helped the LCC women score
86 points to outdistance Clarck C.C., Clackamas C.C, and
Linn-Benton C.C.
"I thought it was a (meet) where half the team had improvements, and the other half didn't," explained Women's
Head Coach Lyndell Wilken. "We had bad weather the second
half of the meet.''
Eleven Titans will compete in various events at the Oregon Invitational meet Saturday, April 29, at Hayward Field.
'' It is an excellent opportunity to run on a good track against
good competition," said Wilken. "It's a good kind of pressure
for the kids. It's a non-scoring meet, so I think we will get good
times if the weather is good.
"Running in that aura of Hayward Field ... its a good place
to showcase kids.''
Amy Bruhn will be running in the 100M high hurdles at 10: 15
a.m.; Sandy Church and Tracie Looney will run in the 400 intermediate hurdles at noon; Huff and Marilyn States will run in
the 800M at 12:50 p.m.; and Tamara Anderson will compete in
the 200M at 1:15 p.m ..
Michelle Weissensels will throw in the discus event at 10:55
p.m.; Verona Richards and Sandy Church are in the long jump
at 12:05 p.m.; Weissensels will throw the javelin at 12:20 p.m.;
Carina Ooyvaar and Weissensels will enter the shot put at 12:30
p.m.
Richards, Misty White, Amy Bruhn, and Alicia Holte will
compete in the jumps at 12:45 p.m. and 1:30 p.m.
The Titan men scored 77 points as Steve Oxenford finished
the shot put with a throw of 46'31 / ' to win the event.
Oxenford also won the hammer with a toss of 145' 10".
Dave Christopher pole vaulted 15' to conquer the field.
Chad Ficek, Paul Green, John Kimsey, and Chris P ekor will

homeruns in the third inning
as the LCC baseball team
cruised to a 9-1 victory over
Clackamas C.C. in a Northwest Athletic Association of

Division game Tuesday, April
25.
The seven-inning win raised
the Titan's record to 4-7 in the
Southern Division, and 9-11
overall.
Feldman, who is the team
captain and starting catcher,
returned to his position last
week after recovering from a
swollen bisep tendon from
which he has suffered for the
last month. He had been hitting in the designated hitter
spot for LCC.
"It felt great to be back,"
said Feldman, who has hit a
homerun in three consecutive
games. "We're hitting the ball
the best ever.''
Lewis Wright followed
Feldman's homer with a two
run shot one batter later to
give the Titans a 5-0 cushion.
Wright finished the game two
for three with two RBI and

'Pet Sematary' unimaginative
by Andy Dunn
TORCH Entertainment Editor

The new film, Pet
Sematary, based on Stephen
King's 1983 best seller, suffers
from mediocre acting,
unimaginative filmmaking,
and a distressingly predictable
story line.

The musical comedy Stop The World - I Want to Get Off
opens at LCC on Friday, April 28 at 8 p.m. in the main theatre.
The play runs April 28 - 29 and May 3 - 6. Curtain time is 8
p.m. for all performances and tickets cost $8. LCC box office
hours are 9 a.m. - 1 p.m., Monday through Friday, 726-2202.

All of this may seem
blasphemy to hard-core King
fans and/ or bloodlusty horror
flick freaks, but friends of
mine who admit to falling into
those categories were also, at
least partially, disappointed.

Junior League of Eugene

There is not much to say
about the acting. All of the
performers (including Dale
Midkiff, Denise Crosby, and
Fred Gwynne) give adequate if
not powerful performances.

best performance. This should
tell you something about the
overall quality of the performances.
But still, given an original
plot (a prerequesite, in my
mind, for a film intended to
shock and scare) and a competent filmmaker, a decent film
could have been made.
Yet this is a bad movie,
precisely because the story, as
adapted for film by · screenwriter (guess who) Stephen
King, is entirely predictable to
anyone moderately acquainted
with the modern horror genre.
The new arrivals to the eerie
small town in Maine are, of
course, the 1980s version of
the Cleavers -- young, clean
and upwardly mobile. Until . . . the supernatural
forces, natural enemies of
these types, gang up to wreak
havoc.

King's favorite, the Indian
burial ground, is involved, as
well as the oft-repeated themes
of regenerating the dead and a
friendly but decaying cadaver
coming back to warn the hero.
Pet cemeteries and the
•ominous blind killer in the
front yard -- the highway -this is seemingly new and interesting stuff, but it is drowned out by the rest of the picture.
Director Mary Lambert
adds very little in the way of
remarkable imagery, visual
tension, or cinematic buildup.
So far, this film has been
reviewed on an adult level but,
despite its R rating, it may
hold its real audience and admirers in the adolescent group.
For those interested in (or
turned off by) gore, this film
delivers a fair amount of
blood, dead animals, and terrified people.
For those who may have not
seen a great deal of horror
films, this film may provide
some shocks and surprises.
But similar action, better filmed and acted out, can be seen
in the gory Reanimator, the
riveting The Shining, and the
An
nightmare
satiric
American Werewolf in London.
Parts of this film reminded
me of all of those. But Pet
Sematary provides only a pale
imitation of true cinematic
fright.

Pet Sematary is rated R and
plays at Movieland.

tempting to go to school must
face . Not all students or prospective students can go to the
seminars that are offered at
the first of the financial aid
season. Yet these same people
are sorely in need of accurate,
timely, and definitive advice
on the use of these fo rms.
It seems to me that t his is yet
another form of economic
discrimination actively practiced by this institution. When
fi nancial aid is not readily
available to people because of
a lack of expert advice on the

LUNATIC FRINGE, I know you're out

preparation of the FAF, this,
in my opm10n, constitutes
discrimination j ust as poll
taxes , and literacy voting requirements are discriminatory.
Next week I' ll propose what
I think is a solution to this problem. If even one person is
denied an education on such
an inexcusable pretext as this,
well, I think that is a crime and
a deprivaton of civil liberties.
