Downtown LCC students
face new parking fees
by TRACY BROOKS
Torch Associate Editor

The many facets of LCC

Students didn't seem to mind walking around Guy Harshbarger's crane as he welcomed
them to LCC. Early signs of student activity created a feeling of anticipation that
pushed him to complete the finl touches for the beginning of fall term.

LCC Downtown Center
students could be facing parking
fees this fall of 75 cents per hour
under the City of Eugene's new
validated parking program
scheduled to take effect Oct. 31.
Under the terms of the new
program, downtown visitors
would pay 75 cents per hour for
parking unless they have
validated parking tickets, which
would be given to customers by
downtown shop owners.
The new program adds to a
problem already faced by
students attending the DTC,
located at 11th and Willamette,
which is finding free parking
within . a reasonable distance
from the center. According to an
informal DTC survey done of
DTC students, about 43 percent
of the students who travel by car
already pay parking meters.
LCC Board members have
discussed possible solutions to

the problem, but haven't made
any concrete decisions.
"I personally feel it's a
hardship on our students," says
LCC Board of Education
member Chuck Ivey. "I think
we need a break from the city."
The city, however, isn't
offering the college any breaks.
"They've made the decision
to treat us like any other business,
and I'm not sure we're like any
other business," says LCC
President Jerry Moskus.
Moskus has appointed two
task forces to deal with the DTC
parking issue. One, a short term
committee made up of DTC
students, people from the city,
and other interested parties, will
look at the problem in the short
run, seeking a temporary
solution. According to Moskus,
the solution could include
participating in the validated
parking program. One option,
he says, is to buy the validation

LCC makes Weld Tech improvem~nts

Tax base 'looks encouraging'

Air quality improvements totalling nearly $60,000 to LCC's
Welding Lab in the Apprenticeship Building are underway, and
expected to be completed in the
next few weeks.
The improvements come after
outcry from several college employees who work on the second
floor, situated directly above the
lab. In past years the employees
complained of common health
symptoms such as headaches,
nausea, dizziness, sinus irritation, itchy eyes, and fatigue.
Similar complaints have been
made over the last 10 years.

Oregon colleges should hear from the State Board of
Education in October whether $50.5 million in "backfill"
monies across the state will be approved.
LCC officials say they feel positive about the state
approving LCC's $3 million share of the monies, which will
make up for tax base funds approved by voters in November,
but deleted by state officials last spring.
"It looks really encouraging," says Vice-President for
Administrative services Dick Hillier.
Last November, Lane County voters approved LCC's tax
base request. However, with the passage of Measure 5 at the
same time, the state was forced to find $633 million in
replacement funds for state schools, and the extra tax base
money approved for LCC was withheld from the college
under the restrictions of an appropriations bill passed by the

Subsidy a must for
Downtown Cente·r
The recent decision to abolish free downtown parking in
Eugene places an unusually heavy financial burden on LCC
Downtown Center (DTC) students.
In addition to paying regular tuition fees, the students are
now faced with parking fees of 75 cents per hour. They also,
on top of that, will be required to plug the meter every two
hours or face the wrath of the city's all too efficient parking
patrol.
Unfortunately, these are the individuals who can least
afford such an added expense. A majority, including students
enrolled in English as a Second Language, are either underemployed or in the process of retraining for careers which will
allow them to afford downtown parking.
The Torch appreciates the efforts made by the Board of
Education in appointing two task force committees to evaluate the situation. The five primary solutions under examination range from subsidizing student parking to moving the
DTC out of the area.
But while the task forces are bouncing ideas around, DTC
students will be paying for parking. This is not acceptable.
The only passable solution in the short-term is subsidized
parking for the students. The college is strapped for funds,
admittedly, but the responsibility rests with LCC to provide
free parking facilities, not the student.
Not only does LCC face parking woes in the short-term, the
future of adequate downtown parking space is grim. Some of
the lots currently used are slated for future development under
the Urban Renewal District's plan.
LCC needs to seriously consider relocating the DTC or
holding classes during the evenings or weekends.
The Eugene City Council's ill fated actions not only put a
strangle-hold on the merchants in that area, but also make
clear its intent to ignore the needs of DTC students.
Under such conditions, a long-term strategy should be
investigated, including the costly relocation to a more suitable
and friendly city, namely Springfield.

War on indiff erenc e next hurdl e for U.S.
Some old friends of mine,
Skip and Muffy Layterdase from
La Jolla, Calif., dropped by last
weekend. Out of sheer boredom
(we have little in common since
they moved from Eugene), most
of our time was spent discussing
politics.
Skip and Muffy were upset
about the state of the world
because there are no more good
wars to be fought.
"The cold war is over," lamented Skip.
"And after Noriega is convicted, the 'War on Drugs' will
be history," chimed in Muffy.
We all agreed that a war on
ignorance would be a battle lost
before it started.
Jokingly, I asked, "Why can't
we declare war on chewing gum
and hairspray manufacturers
because they are corrupting

America's female youth?"

Muffy took me seriously
however, saying, "You can't
outlaw a freedom of expression."
"I thought 'freedom of expression' was a way for a person
to speak their mind about important issues of the day," I said.
Adjusting the sweater casu..:
ally tied around his neck, Skip
replied, "It's not necessary to
have a mind. Looking good is
what's important."
I suggested a war on homelessness.
Muffy put that idea to rest
quickly. "Who cares about gross
and smelly people who refuse to
earn a living?"
"Besides," added Skip, "To
have a good war, the politicians
have to get on the bandwagon.

Everyone knows people without a permanent address can't
vote."
I had to concede the point.
What about a war on pomog-

raphy?

"I'd be all for that," Muffy
said looking down at her plung-

"We women are tired of being
looked at as sex objects."
Skip licked his lips and
winked at me.

"Ah," I said as inspiration

throbbed at my temples, "What
about a war on bureaucracy?"

''Too much paperwork." Skip

added laughing. "Seriously, it's
the American way of the
workplace to do as little as possible and expect to get paid well
for doing it. Just try to get a
student loan or mail a letter, if
you don't believe me."
I believed him.
An uncomfortable silence
followed. Skip crossed his leg,
oh so cleverly, while Muffy
looked into a compact mirror
she'd fished from her purse.
Suddenly, a feeling of puzzlement travelled up my spine
and causing a frightening chill.
"Hey," I said. "Why do we
need a war on something anyway? Why can't we work together to solve our social prob-

lems, now that we don't have the
Russians to blame for everything
from the corruption of our youth
to worid revolution, and lay the
blame for past misdeeds on our
own inability to place the blame
where it really belongs."
Skip looked shocked. I even
noticed a hair out of place on his
head. "And where would that
be?" Skip asked suspiciously.
"On ourselves, of course," I
replied.
"I don't buy into that guilt
trip," Skip said. "How could we
survive if we actually blamed
ourselves forourown problems?
We'd be so busy trying to find
answers, we wouldn't have
enough time to cruise up here in
our 'Beamer'."
"Silly," said Muffy. "We
can't declare war on ourselves."
She had a point.

Procrastination on weld lab unacc eptab le
It is not only what we do, but also what we do not do,
for which we are accountable.-Moliere

Recent decisions by the LCC administration to make
necessary improvements to the Welding Lab's air transfer system are positive steps. It's a pity they come only
after years of complaints by the employees housed in the
offices above the lab.
The reality of limited funds and conservative spending of tax dollars must be realized, but not exploited at
the expense of employee health.
One employee out of ten who have put complaints in
writing, Debora Coelho, actually quit her job as a
records clerk in the Adult High School program this
summer in order to avoid the headaches, nausea, and
dizziness she dealt with at work. Other employees
working on the second floor of the Apprenticeship
Building report similar reactions to the gasses and
fumes.
But college officials repeatedly wave aside reports
from OSHA and SAIF concerning the problem with a
now-standard reply: ''There's no proof of anything
harmful," or "people smell something and they think it's
unhealthy."
What those officials fail to say, however, is that their
insurance carrier reported in 1990: "It is never possible
to monitor for all air contaminants."

This same report also stated that air tests in the lab do
not take into account the combined effect that results
from exposures of many different contaminants simultaneously.

Against the grain
Joe Harwood
Does the college believe these employees are lying?
Have the complaints been ignored because the individuals are "hysterical women?"
Why are LCC officials now moving on the issue,
which they continue to assert no malfeasance on the
college's part?
Maybe it's just time to do something. Maybe enough
people have complained. Maybe the file is getting too
thick. Maybe they've been advised by their attorney to
admit no negligence because they've left themselves
wide open for future litigation by ignoring the problem.

A letter in 1983 advised the college to change the
ventilation system because of employee complaints.
In case you haven't checked, the year is now 1991.
In 1990, the college was again advised to change the
system or move the building. Still, the complaints were
dismissed.
So, let's ask the tough questions.
This summer when I showed Jerry Moskus the 1990
letter from SAIF, he said it was the first time he had seen
it, and asked for a copy. I believe him.
Director of Campus Setvices Paul Colvin told me
this summer that nothing is wrong with the lab and he
said the last two LCC presidents simply didn't want to
commit the funds for improvements.
So, what of the employees on the second floor of the
Apprenticeship Building-and the faculty in the lab
itself? Will they develop health complications down
the road because "there is no proof?" For their sake and
the college's, I hope not.
Moskus has brought a new spirit of trust to this
campus. I think he genuinely cares for the people who
work for him. That must be why it has taken so long for
action-LCC needed someone who listens and gives a
damn.
As for the individuals who ignored the problems, I
wonder how you sleep at night.

Question of the week: Do you think LCC should subsidize parking for downtown?

Brian MacDaniels
-Psychology
"Yes, I do, because I think

it's ridiculous to have to pay
for parking if you have to pay
tuition and all the school expenses in the first place."

Ron Thompson
- Raquetball Player
"I think that LCC should
make sure that the students have
parking available. If they have
to do that with [a] subsidy, or
an agreement that will work
out with the city, or however
they want to do it, they should
definitely have available parking for the students."

James King

"I think they should do that
if itdoesn 'traise the tuition too
much."

Flight- Tech Department looks for positive year

by TRACY BROOKS
Torch Associate Editor

LCC's Flight Technology Department will leave
bad feelings behind as it enters a new year filled to
capacity, with a rewritten curriculum, and highly
qualified instructors, says newly-appointed Department Chair Bob Farrand.
"We've been involved with a number of improvements to the program over the last 12 months," he says.
The Flight Technology program was shaken up last
fall with the firing of Department ChairTerry Hagberg,
due to alleged financial improprieties. After leaving
LCC, Hagberg started his own flight school in Corvallis. LCC's program was further disrupted when Kawada Industries, a Japanese company which contracted with the college for training of Japanese students as helicopter pilots, withdrew from the contract
Dec. 1, as a result of Hagberg's termination.

In spite of the setbacks, says Farrand, the program
is progressing well. "We've upgraded our facilities
(and) we've acquired additional aircraft." Flight Tech
now owns 14 aircraft, and is leasing two helicopters.
Farrand says the curriculum has improved. as well.
LCC has the only authorization in the state to graduate
students with FAA pilot certification. All other flight
training programs require their students to complete a
"check ride" with an FAA flight inspector before
becoming FAA certified.
"We 're very proud of that, and it• s been one of the
major projects of the year to revise our curriculum," he
says.
"We've also upgraded the staff qualifications on
the airpane side ... all of our flight instructors as of this
year have to have at least four instructor ratings on top
of their federal pilot's certificates. Historically, we've
hired people with one or two ratings."
With the pullout of Kawada Industries, Farrand

Financial Aid cuts work study

place of our meetings consult
your school paper, the TORCH.

by JOE HARWOOD
Torch Editor

I don't want to bore you with
a lot of words of promise, I believe action speaks louder than
words and I'd rather show you
my intentions than talk about
them. I'm here to work for you,
no matter how small you may
feel your concern might be, bring
it to us, and let us work for you.
Our office is located on the fourth
floor of the center building, 4 79.

Fewer Work Study jobs will be made available to LCC
students this fall due to revisions in policy by the college
Financial Aid Department.
Last year, the department over-committed funds for Work
Study awards and was forced to make cuts last spring by 35
percent per student.
The change in policy this fall is an attempt to avoid the
same situation, according Financial Aid Associate Director
Linda DeWitt.
"We don't want to be in the position of having to take
money away from students this spring," she says.
The department adjusted the complex formula it uses to determine the number of students who receive Work Study
funding, resulting in fewer students being served. Financial
Aid regularly commits more money than is actually available
not only for Work Study awards, but also for Perkins Loans
and Supplemental Education Opportunity Grants as well.
"We know from experience that we can offer an amount
over and above what we actually have, because people don't
show up, some people will drop out before the end of the year,
and some will get disqualified and not be eligible for benefits," explains DeWitt.
Last year the college purposely over-committed by 280
percent, and in both 1988-89 and 1989-90 by 300 percent.
But she says this year LCC will only over-commit by 210
percent in work study awards.
"Our experience in the two years prior to the 1990-91 year
was that we could over-commit the Work Study fund 300
percent and still not spend it all," she says.
But one reason for running out of money last spring, according to DeWitt, was that the maximum award to students
was increased from $500 to $900.
It was the department's attempt to give students the opportunity to earn enough money on campus. so they wouldn't be

I anticipate a lot of change on
our campus this coming year.
So let's work together for our
common goals. Remember, this
college is here for you, together
we can create change for our
needs. Have a wonderful year
and see you around campus.

says the media focused concern on the financial ramifications to the college, which would lose $1 .2 million
per year. However, says Farrand, because over 90
percent of the Kawada training was done on leased
equipment, "There was no financial benefit to the
department or to the college (from the Kawada contract). Only the companies that owned helicopters
benefitted financially from that arrangement."
The only revenue gained from the Kawada contract,
says Farrand, was through foreign student tuition,
which is signifigantly higher than that of in-state
students. The program will be operating at a more

Welcome to a new academic

more classes at one of Lane's

says he ended the test by telling
them that for every fish they
caught and let go, they would
receive an MRE (Meals Ready

was just a prissey little thing ...
Yriarte continues, "when we first

hysterically in the air, screaming bloody murder, but when it
was time to pack up and head

Frustrated and annoyed, spokespersons for LCC classified
employees point their fingers at a possible cause to all their
problems during negotiation for a new contract.
LCC classified employees normally work under a contract,
but on June 30, their contract expired. Now stalled on the
negotiating table, a new agreement has yet to be reached.
"Under the contract, we negotiate for better working conditions, wages. sick leaves, vacation day, and currently Martin
Luther King Day," says Jerry Sirois, counseling department
advisor and president of the LCC Employees Federation (LCCEF).
"It's not illegal to work without a contract, but you don't find
too many people that don't, .. he says.
According to Lon Mills, LCC's chief negotiator, it's been his
job since 1974 to set up classified worker's contracts, handle any
of the worker's grievances, and deal with contract negotiations.
"I deal with anything that has to do with laborrelations," Mills
says. "I try to keep everyone comfortable."
But many classified workers disagree about the comfort he
says he provides.
"He doesn't work for the [employees] at all," retorts Sirois.
"He works for the Board (of Education) or the college, but not for
the workers, not for us."
According to Sirois, Mills is incapable of keeping workers
comfortable. He claims it's Mill's job to give classified workers
as little as possible in order to save the college as much money
as he can.
"Lon has a progressive ... 50s, 60s attitude where he thinks
he doesn't have to [negotiate] with anyone.'' Sorois says. "But
this is the 90s. We need to participate and talk together under the
new style of unifying principles until something gets done. We
need to get rid of all these six-guns and start working people-topeople."
When asked to respond to these allegations, Mills declined
comment.
Computer Programmer Alen Bahret, who is a member of the
LCC negotiating team, says Mills was hired by the Board of
Education to do a job, "but he's trying to bring ina different style
with us, an old style, and it's tough. It's tough when you go a day
past your contract and we've already gone three months. Who
knows how much longer it will be either?"
According to Bahret, anyone working 20 hours per week or
more at a non-teaching, non-managerial job is a classified employee. Because there are so many classified employees secretaries, technicians, custodians, support staff, clerks - and
the contracts are so important, revamping and updating the
document is a tedious process.
"Oh, it will be way past December when we finish this," says
Sirois. "We need participation, talking and unifying principles,
but Lon Mills doesn't believe in any of that stuff and we can't do
anything about it. It's the law."

LCC cook feeds
survival camp
by SHANE WELLS
Torch Sports Editor
Harland Yriarte, newly hired LCC athletics director, and 140
cross country runners took a trip to southeastern Oregon's Steens
mountains this last summer for an annual survival camp. The only
problem Yriarte had in organizing the trip, was finding a qualified
cook to feed the small army of athletes.
Harold Carothers, a staff cook in the kitchen at LCC, was chosen
for the job. Yriarte says he chose Carothers because he had been a
student in one of Yriarte's archery classes three years ago and had
talked a lot about cooking. "He had told me he was a cook, so I asked
him if he would be interested in going to southeastern Oregon for a
survival camp I held every summer." Yriarte says.
"As it turns out he was cooking in the Grand Canyon that
particular summer and couldn't go with us. So, the cooks we had last
year weren't exactly what we were looking for, but we managed."
Yriarte ran into Carothers again last year in the kitchen of the
LCC cafeteria and again had asked him if he would like to cook for
the camp. Carothers agreed and in August they and a record tum-out
of 140 runners headed towards southeastern Oregon.
"There was no electricity, and the only running water was a
nearby spring," says Carothers, "but we had three upright freezers
full of ice which we laid down horizontally, and lots of frozen food,
so the runners were very well fed." 1bere were also propane stoves
and a three-hole steam table for Carothers to work with.
When asked if there were any difficulties cooking in an altitude
of 7,500 feet, Carothers said, "Not really, you know, but you really
have to watch the food closely and adjust the temperatures to suit the
high elevation.,, Carothers says he took lots of starchy foods and
prepared everything from spaghetti to meatloaf for his hungry
athletes.
In addition to keeping the runners well fed, Y riarte says he also
tried to build character in the young athletes. ''There was one
instance where we told everybody that we had run out of food to
cook. So, I told everyone that they had to find and catch their own
food, so we had one guy catching fish while others went looking for

LCC Chief Cook Harold Carothers helped runners survive the week-long camp with his Chefboy-ar-tese.

by SHANE WELLS
Torch Sports Editor
Despite the loss of four LCC
athletic teams, Harland Yriarte,
fonner Lane track coach and
new1y hired athletic director, has
high hopes for Lane's athletic
programs this year.
The college cutfourof Lane's
eight sports last year because of
funding problems: baseball,
volleyball, and men's and
women's cross-country. Yriarte
says the main goal right now is
adequately funding the four that
remain.
"We hope that with the four
remaining sports we will have

Yriarte, whQ is an instructor

"We're looking for people

exception to that, wherever he's
been he has been Coach of the
Year and a top-notch instructor."
The department is current! y
in search for a new track coach.
The deadline is Jan. 1, 1992.
Yriarte says he would like to

this won't be achieved in the
near future, he says that it won't

fully support scholarships and
tuition wavers for our athletes."
says Yriarte.
He says other community
colleges in Oregon support
scholarships and tuition waivers
for athletes through their general funds. "We fund about 66
terms of tuition for four sports
out of 90 terms allowed by the
Northwest Athletic Conference.
So what we're trying to do is get
that 66 up to 90 by raising funds."
says Yriarte.
He also says that hiring quality coaches for Lane's teams is
important as well. He points to
the recent appointment of Jim
Boutin, replacing Dale Bates as
basketball coach/instructor.

Golf tourney raises funds
by Shane Wells

Torch Sports Editor
The Ninth Annual LCC Open, an amateur golf tournament,
offered a chance for anyone with a set of clubs to participate in a real
tournament involving actual prizes and awards.
The event was held on Friday, Sept. 13 at the Emerald Valley
Resort in Creswell. Organizing the tournament were Joe Farmer,
director of LCC Foundation, and Roberta Opdenweyer, Foundation
secretary. The event is said to have grossed $25,000.
Among the many sponsors were Northwest Natural Gas and Bilby-Bit Computer Rentals, both of whom donated $2,000 apiece, as
they were main supporters of the tournament. Also, there were 34
tee-sponsors, various companies in the area who kicked in $125
apiece. Each company's name appeared on "tee signs" displayed at
designated tee-offs on the golf course. There were also many prize
donors for the event.

ASLCC spending explai ned

by KELLEY EGRE
Torch Managing Editor

While LCC students pay the
college a total of $12 in incidental fees every term, most students have no idea where the
money goes, according to Seth
Craig, ASLCC communications
director.
•A new fee of $5 added this fall
will go directly to ASLCC's
childcare program in order to
subsidize both on and off-campus childcare for the children of
LCC students. The fee was approved by students who voted in
last year's spring elections.
•Oregon Student Public Interest
Research Group (OSPIRG) receives $2 of every student's fees
for various activities and events
they sponsor throughout the year,
also a new cost added fall term.
Topics they cover include toxic
waste, hunger and homelessness,

and environmental issues.
•Fromtheremaining$5,approximately $2 is used to cover the
cost of each person's student

I.D.

•Out of the first $5 paid by
student's, three percent is dedicated to Denali, LCC 's student
run literary arts magazine, to help
in salaries and/or printing costs.
•The remaining balance is put
into ASLCC's account and is
used to help students and student groups here on campus says
ASLCC President Ernie Woodland.
"Student's are paying the fee to
better the college and to_help not
only themselves, but other students as well," Woodland says.
Among the services are free legal
services, free phones, sponsored
clubs and student organizations,
the microwave in the Center
Building, free coffee and tea on
Wednesdays, furniture for stu-

REFORM

dent lounges, Martin Luther
King Day. and a number of other
services offered to LCC students,
such as entertainment, and educational events.
"It's the students' money," says
ASLCC Secretary Jeanne
Beauchaine."Any cultural event
that goes on on campus, ASLCC
has something to do with it."
ASLCC Treasurer Rachel Lindsay says the student Senate goes
through a long process in determining how and to whom the
money is spent.
"My job is to recommend what
is spent and how much," she
says. "I'm going to make sure
students and organizations are
funded fairly throughout the
year."
Woodland says nothing is perfect, but says the ASLCC is fair,
and as long as he's in office, the
money is spent on the students
who spend it.
