College fires Flight Tech ·Chair
by Devan C. Wilson
Torch Editor

Editor's note: This is the
first installment in a series
reviewing the dismissal of
Flight Technology Chair Terry
Hagberg.
LCC is firing the chairman
of the Flight Technology
Department following an
extensive four-month audit of
the program.
The college fired Terry
Hagberg, on Friday, August
10 as Flight Technology chair.
In accordance with the LCCM anagem en t employment

contract, Hagberg has been
reassigned for six months to
special project work_ in the
Office of Instruction.
LCC President Jerry
Moskus has named Bob
FerrandJr., a 19-yearveteran
of the program, to serve as
interim department chair.
Hagberg says he has been
given no clear reasons for his
dismissal and claims that
there is nothing in the audit
which he considers to be
damaging.
According to Moskus, the
investigation began when he
was approached by a faculty
member notifying him of
"serious charges about
irregularities in the Flight

Tech Program."
The charges, Moskus says,
came about when people
connected to the Flight Tech
Department
brought
information to the faculty
union. Moskus adds, though,
that the individual who
approached him was not acting
on behalf of the union.
"The charges were serious
and I felt the need for a careful
audit," Moskus says. The
college hired the independent
firm of Coopers and Lybrand
to conduct the audit. After
Coopers and Lybrand's
involvement, Moskµs says
additional charges surfaced,
and
he
consequently
appointed a staff member and

retired LCC administrator to
investigate further. "They
talked to a number of people
who are past and present
employees of the Flight Tech
Program," says Moskus.
Moskus says that ' after
reviewing the audit and other
collected materials, he
"determined we needed to
make a management change
in the program."
His action, Moskus says, is
consistent
with
the
management
working
agreement which is approved
annually by each of the
managers..
"My action relates to a
clause in · that agreement
which say~ I may reassign

somebody and dismiss them
if I deem it to be in the best
interest of the institution.
"The system that we have
here at the school and in the
state provides for the review
of my decisions and I
encourage anyone who has a
problem with my decisions to
follow that process," adds
Moskus.
Hagberg says he may do
just that. "I'm investigation
all options including legal
options at this time."

department could endanger a

U.S. Consulate denies ASL.CG \iR's ttisa

Sione Barrato de Araujo

by Mary Browning
Torch Associate Editor

~

ASLCC's vice-president
has been denied a student
visa by the U.S. Consulate in
Brazil, barring her return to
the U.S. to attend LCC.
Edisione (Sione) Barrato
de Araujo, a native of Brazil,
returned to Brazil this
summer, where she applied
for a student visa, which
would allow her to continue
her studies in the U.S.
The consulate is "unwilling
to discuss the basis of its
decision with third parties,"
including Araujo's lawyer,
Portland attorney Philip
Hornik.
However, after talking
with her by phone, Hornik
surmises that the consulate

denied Araujo a visa because
it feels she hasn't shown
"sufficient evidence of het
intention to leave the U.S.
when she completes her
studies." Hornik believes that
the "evidence submitted is
sufficient to show that she
will return" to Brazil after
completing her studies.
Evidence of intention to
return to an applicants native
country includes: having
family ties (such as a spouse
or children), employment to
return to, or a permanent
residence in the native
country which the applicant
does not intend to abandon.
Araujo entered the U.S. on
a tourist visa during her last
visit. While here, she obtained
student status, allowing her
to enroll at LCC. She was
elected to the position of
ASLCC
Vice-President
during spring term, last
school year.
Although
consulate
officials will not discuss
Araujo's case with anyone
else, they told Hornik that
they were willing to consider
new evidence concerning her
application.
The school was first alerted
to Araujo's visa problems
when Hornik contacted the
Admissions Office, requesting
copies oftwo articles, profiling
Araujo, published in last
year's Torch. ·

The first article, written
by staff writer John Unger
and published on March 30,
1990, reads, in part, that

Araujo plans to return to
Bahia(h~rnative state). "She
wants
to
produce
documentary films that show

how Brazil is influenced by
Bahia's rich.culture."
Hornik sent excerpts from

President's goal.-Strengthen
sense of community
Dear LCC Students,
On behalf of everyone at Lane Community College, I want to welcome you to the
beginning of our t~enty-sixth academic year!
One of our goals this year is to strengthen the sense of community on campus. Too often
students become isolated, and that isolation hinders their success. It is up to all ofus to
create an environment where students feel they belong. If you are a returning student,
I hope you will reach out to new students, enabling them to find services and meet new
people. If you are a new student, I hope you will make an effort to get to know other
students, faculty, and staff; and that you will reach out to others when you need help. We
want LCC to be a college where service to others is encouraged and the well- being of each
individual is supported.
LCC has served many, many students well over its twenty-five years, but none was
any more important to us than are you. You are the reason we exist.
I hope the 1990-91 academic year is your best ever.
Sincerely,

Jerry Moskus
LCC President

He is seeking reconsideration

an appeal means pleading the

that the lower body's decision

According to the ASLCC
Constitution, vacant positions

Michael Omogrosso will need

Editor's Note: At press
time, the Torch was informed
by Hornik that the U.S.
Consulate in Brazil has
denied
Araujo's
visa
application, despite the
additional evidence, and
refuses to reconsider their
decision on this application.

The consulate does not
believe, based on the evidence
provided, that Araujo intends
to return to Brazil after
completing her studies in the
U.S. However, the consulate
did informHornik thatAraujo
would be alloiped to submit a
new application for a student
visa. The consular officer
would then consider the new
application at that time.
Hornik said that no
decision has been made about
their next course of action.

Orientations for potential

by Bill Porter
Director, Florence Campus

The Florence Campus first
offered classes in 1968 and in
1975 moved into a beautiful
new 10,000 square foot
western lodge-sty le building
on 20 acres of lush coastal
forestland next to the high
•school in Florence. To a great
many Western Lane County
residents, the Florence
campus has become a beacon
of hope, of inspiration, of
success and of support.
It is somewhat surprising
that while the center may
truly be an active integral part
of many lives and enjoys an
enviable position of respect
within the community, few
people east of the coast range
are aware of the role it plays
or even that it exists. Even
more surprising is that few
LCC staff members from
Eugene have had the pleasure
of visiting the campus.
There
are
certain
misconceptions as to its size,
role, and mission. In reality,
LCC at Florence is a dynamic,

thriving "mini-college"
offering many of the same
services to students as the
main college. Staffing
includes five full-time
persons: .Hill Porter, director;
Laura Ory, administrative
assistant; Jean Spriggs,
business faculty; Pat Shelp,
Adult Basic and Secondary
Education faculty; and a
customer service clerk. The
campus has 50 part-time
faculty serving some 500
students each term with up to
150 different class offerings.
Students may complete
their first year of college
transferable courses at
Florence or achieve an
Associates of Applied Science
degree
in
Office
Administration. Various
certificate programs in
business
and
health
-o ccupations are offered plus a
wide assortment of career,
developmental, cultural and
self enrichment classes. The
center offers the opportunity
for all LCC students to
register at all LCC campuses
and provides periodic
academic and financial aid
counseling appointments.
A growing need in the
community has increased the
services of the Adult Basic
and Secondary Education
programs at Florence,
providing General Education
Development (GED), English
as a Second Language (ESL),
education
for
the
handicapped, and General
Literacy Program.
There are many services
provided by the Florence
Campus to students and
community. Library services
are provided to the college by
the local public library, which
is appreciated by students and
faculty alike. Community
visitors, tourists, and
students will soon enjoy the
nature trails and outdoor
assembly areas being
developed on the campus
thanks to a grant from the

Cartooning class to be offered at Downtown Center
by Mary Browning
Torch Associate Editor

If you're a full-time LCC student,
you're entitled to a free Continuing
Education class.
Yawn? You may be surprised to
find that the teachers can be almost
as interesting as the myriad of classes
offered.
Paul Ollswang never planned to be
an artist. So much for the best laid
plans of mice and men.
"I never thought to do much with
art. I wanted to become a scientist, a
biologist," he says. Despite this, his
true fate was to follow a far different
course. He's listed in the ''Who's Who
in American Cartooning," won the
"Broadcast Promotion and Marketing
Executive's International Gold
Medallion Competition" in 1986 for
his cartoon "Rock Dog," and teaches
cartooning for the LCC Downtown
Center's (DTC) Continuing Education
program. So much for science.
Ollswang, is a cross between ajackof-all-trades and a Renaissance man.
He has bachelor's degrees in
philosophy and fine arts, and a minor
in math and science. His sophisticated
comic strips are filled with allusions
to classic literature, philosophy,
psychology, Latin, Greek, and
classical music . He has produced a
coloring book, worked as a commercial
artist, radio talk show host, cartoonist,
teacher, and film star.
He had a major movie role once,
playing a "very unhappy, East
European, garage owner," but the film
was never released in theaters.
However, it has been shown as a TV
late movie.
Surprisingly, it was an aversion to
violence which prompted Ollswangto
develop his artistic talents.
Violence first shaped his destiny

when he chose to attend the High
School of Music and Art in New York
(made well-known by the popular
movie "Fame") to escape his high
school in New York's West Side -the
neighborhood depicted in the musical,
''West Side Story."
"I'm sure it's really nice," he says
about the musical. "I guess a lot of
people like the music, butl lived there
... People like myself were constantly
being beat up." Ollswang's art gave
him the opportunity to escape that
violence.
After graduation, Ollswang worked
to become a scientist. At St. John's
College in Annapolis, Md, he earned
his degree in Philosophy, with a minor
in Math and Science.
He came to Eugene in 1966, to
work on the graduate degree in biology
at the U of O that would fulfill his
dream ofbecoming a scientist. Instead,
fate stepped in again.
"I couldn't stand the math involved
with chemistry," says Ollswang. "So I
switched for a while to philosophy,
and I wrote a very stupid master's
thesis, and that was the end of that
one."
Once again, Ollswang's aversion to
violence re-shaped his life. He then
joined the art program at the U ofO to
avoid being drafted into the Vietnam
War. "I had to stay out of it. There
was no way around it. They killed
people over there, and I wasn't up for
that." This led a bachelor's of Fine
Arts degree.
Ollswang's first published cartoon
was "George the Mighty Elkhound,"
featured in the Oregon Daily Emerald,
among other publications. Since then,
Ollswang's beloved dogs have been a
primary feature in his cartooning,
and in his successes.
In 1977, he published his
illustration of a 16th Century poem

LCC's Continuing Education tea~her ~aul Ollswang ta~es time out to sp~nd a
loving moment with his dog, Rosie. His cartoon novel Dreams of a Dog was
published earlier this year. It is available in local bookstores.

titled the "Tale of Tom O'Bedlam,"
and he has produced and published
nume,rous other comic books and
strips in newspapers, magazines and
in numerous promotions and
advertisements.
But it is his latest book, "Dreams of
a Dog," - "A political, philosophical,
cartoon novel" - that is his best
known comic strip.
Published by Rip Off Press earlier
this year, the first edition of
Ollswang's cartoon novel has sold out,
though some copies are still available
at Marketplace Books and the Hungry
Head Bookstore, in Eugene.

~

Ollswang began to teach cartooning
at the DTC Winter Term, 1989. His
class is scheduled this term, Mondays
from 1 p.m. to 4 p.m. and 6:30 p.m. to
9:30 p.m. For more information see
page three of the Fall class schedule.
Continuing Education offers
noncredit courses in art, business,
computers, foreign languages, health,
music, dance and theater, and much
more.
(Note: Registration for Continuing
Education classes must be done three
days before classes begin. The last day
to register for Ollswang's class is
September 19.)

Correctives Program helps heal 'Walk-ons' welcomed
by Robert Catalano
Torch Sports Editor

LCC's Correctives Program
will again offer seven classes
this fall for students
interested in physical
rehabilitation.
Whether a student is
suffering from a fracture or a
sprain, a head injury, cerebral
palsy, or is paralyzed, the
Correctives Program has an
individualistic rehabilitation
plan available.
Dr. Susan Burch, director
of Correctives since its
inception in 197 4, gives
personal attention to each
student who enrolls in the
program.
strange
"I have a
relationship with my
students," Burch says. "Most
of them become my friends."
New enrollees in the
Correctives Program are
given a physical evaluation
and their medical histories
are reviewed by Dr. Burch.
"I have a conference with
each student and between us
we develop a plan designed to
accomplish the goal the
student wishes to achieve,"
explains Dr. Burch.
"Some people who have
knee injuries, for example,
only need enough work to
strengthen the leg back to
where it was before the injury,
while others may want a
program designed to get rid of
that pot-belly that developed
during their inactivity."

The class schedule is also
designed with the needs of
the student as a priority.
"I've found that the middle
of the day is best," says Dr.
Burch. "It's difficult for some
of my students to sit all day in
class without experiencing
discomfort. So, the schedule
gives them a needed break
between morning and
afternoon classes."
the
Enrollment for
correctives classes tends to
increase as the school year
progresses, says Bob Creed,
Physical
and
Health
Education Department chair.
"Last year, by Spring Term,
we had over 200 students in
the program," says Creed.
"Enrollment is usually light
in the fall, but once word gets
around, the numbers increase
dramatically."
Creed believes the number
of students in the program
will also increase with the
employment downturn in the
timber and wood products
industry.
"We've had an increase in
the number of dislocated
workers enrolling at LCC,"
Creed explains. "Some have
had work related injuries
which have not been treated
properly for years. They are
referred to Correctives by
school counselors for
unhealed back injuries and a
number of other physical
reasons."
The Correctives Program
also receives students

referred from state vocational
rehabilitation programs, the
McN air House, the Head
Injury Program ofOregon, the
Oregon Pain Center and other
agencies throughout the state.
''The correctives classes are
a vital part of our program,"
says Creed. "I feel we should
be advertising more, so that
more people can take
advantage of what we offer."
More will be offered to
paralyzed students this year
as the result of a generous
contribution from a local
resident, Jack Jackson. The
enabled the
donation
program to buy a Regys II
machine.
"What this machine will do,"
says Dr. Burch, "is allow the
completely paralyzed person
muscle
achieve
to
development and tone which
allows for a healthier and
more vital appearance."
"This may not seem like an
important thing," Dr. Burch
explains further, "but a better
appearance and outlook helps
the self-esteem level of the
wheelchair-bound person
increase tremendously."
The Regys machine also
enhances the development of
atrophied muscles for the
partially paralyzed and
injured student.
Dr. Burch is optimistic
about the upcoming school
year . .
"Fot-th-0se whose goal it is
to walk again, we can offer
more help than ever before."

Torch Sports Editor

LCC's Athletic Director welcomes students to "walk-on" to
the fields of competition at LCC this year.
"Basically," says Bob Foster, also LCC's head baseball
coach, "we need athletes for all eight sports we compete in."
LCC competes in volleyball, baseball, men's and women's
basketball, and men's and women's cross-country and track.
Foster says interested students should contact the coach of
the sport they wish to try-out for before or during Orientation.
"Although volleyball and men's and women's cross-country
have already started," Foster says, "athletes are still nE;!eded
•
to fill out team rosters."
"We're not like the University (of Oregon) where we can
offer a lot of athletic scholarships, but exceptional athletes
that walk-on here have an excellent chance of receiving
turn to Walk Ons, page 15
scholarship money."

P. E. Dept. sees changes for new year

Great offers

Torch Sports Editor

Although Physical Education classes are no
longer required to receive a transfer degree
from LCC, the Health and Physical Education
Department does not plan to fade away.
"Our department is now geared toward
people who want to participate in team or
individual sports, and we offer everything
from archery to weight-training or karate,"
says Dave Roof, an LCC P.E. counselor.
"There are some degrees (at LCC) which
still require a P.E. c~ass, but most do not,"
Roof says. "Howeve1, we've found that the
majority of students will take P.E. classes
whether they are required or not."
Rooffeels the Health and P. E. Department
was "going down the drain" until Bob Creed
was named department head in October 1989.
"Since then," Roof says, "we have increased
activity offerings on campus and more
recreational activities such as rafting and flyfishing."
Activities will also be Jffered through an
exchange program with the University of
Oregon for swimming and racquetball
activities, for which tr.ere are no facilities
available atLCC, and intramural competitions
with teams from the U ofO are in the planning
stage.
The Aerobic Dance Program, which was
moved from the Health andP. E. Department
to the Performing Ar.'~s Department by former
Vice President offr.struction Jackie Belcher,
will be returned tr Creed's department this
year.
"For the two ) ears that aerobic dancing
wasn't a part of our department," Creed
explains, "we lost part of our P.E. majors

on the HP. 48SX
alld the HP 28S
HP has two ·special offers for getting
ahead of the pack when it
comes to schoolwork.

Health and P.E. Dept. Head Bob Creed

i)rogram because we weren't allowed to offer
those classes through the P.E. Department."
Health and P.E. will also offer classes in
folk, square, and social dancing, as well as
ballroom dancing.
"Adding the Aerobic Dance Program
increases the department's budget," says
Creed. ''Which allows us to offer more, and
,
-----different, kinds of classes."
The Health and P. E. Departmen'"t-h&s also
added a part time athletic trainer and has
hired Gary Knapp as the intramural director.
For further information about classes and
recreational activities consult pages 38 and
39 of LCC's Fall 1990 Class Catalog, or call
theHealthandP.E. Department at ext. 2545.
Editor's note - The P.E. class titled
"Personal Defense for Women (PE 180, Reg.
#567)" is not ·intended for women only. Men

VP of Instruction post to be filled by new year

Jim Ellison

by Devan C. Wilson
Torch Editor

The college has set Jan. 2,
1991 deadline for filling the

vacant vice president of
instruction position.
Vacated last spring with
the resignation of Jaquelyn
Belcher, the position has been
filled on an interim basis by
Jim Ellison, formerly Dean of
Weekend College. Belcher
resigned her post to accept
the presidency ofMinneapolis
Community College in
Minnesota.
As interim vice
president, Ellison says his
goal
is
to
enhance
"collaboration among the
instructional branch and

other branches ofthe college."
He also aims to foster good
collaboration among the
college's 16 instructional
departments. "To make the
college grow," he says, "we're
going to have those
resources."
10-person
Vice
A
President for Instruction
Search Committee, with
members representing the
Faculty
Council,
Instructional
Cabinet,
College Council, instructional
support staff, and the
Associated Students of Lane

Community College, will
screen all candidates and
recommend from three to five
for interviews Oct. 22-Nov. 3.
A final decision, which must
be approved by the LCC Board
of Education, is set for Nov.
26-30, with Jan. 2, 1991
tabbed as the "anticipated
earliest hiring date."
LCC President Jerry
Moskus says he would prefer
someone with administrative
experience in a community
college system. He also
stresses the importance
successful experience in

financial management,
sayingmanypeopledownplay
the financial aspects.
"This person has to
manage a huge budget," he
says. Moskus himself served
as vice president for
instruction at Lincoln Land
CC in Lincoln Ill. from 19711985.
Moskus also says the
interim VP will not be
restricted from applying for
the permanent post. Ellison
says he will be among the
applicants.

No cuts in Instruction; new programs established
by Devan C. Wilson
Torch Editor

Despite budgetary woes, no programs were cut
from the area of instruction during the summer
break
In fact, says Interim VP of Instruction Jim
Ellison, many new programs and classes have been
added. "That's the exciting part," he says. "Being a
viable source for education and meeting students
needs is what we're all about."
Among the new programs the Fall Term is the
"Alternative Vision Coordinated Studies Program,
developed by four faculty members - Rita
Hennessy, philosophy; David Croft, history; Frank
Rossini, writing/literature; and Patrick Torelle,
acting. The LCC Fall 1990 Class Catalog describes
the Program as "a new, interdisciplinary,
coordinated studies program; the first ofits kind to
be offered at an Oregon community college."
Students will earn 15 transferable credits per
term or a possible 45 per year. "Moving away from
the emphasis on specialization, the program
stresses the common themes that connect the
disciplines," says the program publicity.

Additional offerings making their premiere at LCC
include a three-course sequence in alcohol and
drug awareness. To be taught by Substance Abuse
Prevention Coordinator Harvey Bond, the sequence
• will consist of"Alcohol: Use, Misuse, and Addiction,"
during Fall Term; "Drugs: Use, Misuse, and
Addiction," Winter Term; and a third, unnamed
course focusing on recovery during Spring Term.
The first course in the sequence was taught last
spring.
"I think there's a real demand for this type of
program," Bond says. Since his arrival at LCC in
the fall of1989, Bond says he has received over 100
unsolicited requests for such a program.
Bond will also teach "Understanding Addictive
Behavior," also taught for the first time last spring.
The course focuses on the underlying process of all
addictions, according to Bond., who lists alcohol
and drug addiction, as well as over-eating and codependancy as examples of ~ddiction.
"I see (the class) as the bridge for those people
who know something is wrong and don't know what
to do," says Bond. He says the class is also targeted
for those interested in a career in drug and/or

Sequence in Peace
Studies formed
The LCC Curriculum Committee has decided to expand a
course in peace studies, offered two terms last year, into a
three-quarter sequence titled "Peace and Conflict Studies."
The course is taught by English instructor Jerome Garger
through the Social Science Department. The committee, which
Garger says was favorably impressed with the response ofthe
students who participated in the "trends course," approved
the course this summer.
A trends course is offered on a trial basis for one term and
may be repeated once, after which time it is reviewed by the
curriculum committee as a possible permanent class offering,
or for elimination.
Garger says he was forced to turn away students who
wanted to be in the trends course fall and winter terms, and
he had three times as many possible guest speakers as class
time allowed.
"Basically, it's just a subject and a course of study whose
time has come," says Garger.
He conducted an extensive survey of the trends course
students to determine the interest in, and need for, a threeterm sequence in p'eace studies. He says that a vast majority
of the students who responded said that more time was
needed to study the content in depth.
The three classes in the sequence are: PS 211- Peace and
Conflict Studies: International (Fall); PS 212 - Peace and
Conflict Studies: National (Winter); PS 213 - Peace and
Conflict Studies: Local (Spring).
Students who received credit for the trends course, SS199,
will receive credit for the first class in the sequence (PS 211).
The courses do not need to be taken in sequence.
The three classes will transfer as Social Science transfer
elective credits to the University of Oregon and other
universities.
This term, the course is offered Monday, Wednesday, and
Friday-at l -p.m. in App. 214.

alcohol recovery, nursing, and other mental health
settings.
Other programs debuting at LCC are "College
Success Class," and "Crossroads."
"College Success Class" is for those with doubts
about their ability to succeed in college. The course
is offered in two-day, one week, or full term sessions.
"Crossroads" is for students returning to college,
or those searching for career direction. Two highly
successful LCC classes - "Life Transitions" and
"Career Planning" -are combined in this full term
course.
Ellison also points to additions in vocational
education. The Mechanics Department has
upgraded its Computer Aided Manufacturing Lab
by adding 3-dimensional computer-aided
manufacturing capability.
"We're always looking to upgrade hardware,"
says Ellison.
The Math Department is seeing an upgrade in
hardware. In response to student demands, the
Math Department will offer several classes which
employ graphing calculators - calculators that
graph math equations on a screen.

Moskus says he has had
several meetings with

foresees no problems in
maintaining relations with
the firm.
In a Aug 11. RegisterGuard report, Jerry Coldeen,
who has served for 20 years
on the college's Flight Tech
Advisory Committee, said

that the audit found neither
wrongdoing by Hagberg nor
deficiencies in department
bookkeeping.
However, Moskus claims
that members of the advisory
committee have not seen the
audit.
Moskus had refused to
release the audit, citing a
possible lawsuit by agberg,

and also because of the need
to maintain personal privacy
records. However, The
Register-Guard received from
an "independent source"
portions of the audit along
with Hagberg's written
response. The submitted
portions
allegedly
documented instances where
Flight 'l'echnology students

certified as airworthy; some
faculty teaching assignments
for which they were not
certified; and that the
department had leased
helicopter equipment from a
firm owned by Flight Tech
instructor Ron Gustafson and
Hideo
Ono,
a
local
representative of Kawada
Industries, and a second firm
owned solely by Gustafson.

Gustafson told the R-G that
his firm's bids were in
accordance with LCC policy
and approved the the Board
of Education.
The released portions ofthe
audit also alleged instances
of staff intimidation and
student favoritism.
