He answered questions from host Alan Siporin and from listeners who called in. Mostquestionspertained to the OCA-sponsored Ballot Measure 9 which appears on the Nov. ballot. The measure would amend the Oreg~n Constitutionso that government cannot facilitate, and must discourage homosexualityi and other behaviors. The following are excerpts from the hour-long interview. Siporin: " ...Why we do need Measure9,in your estimation?" Mabon: " ...Number one, the homosexual community, in their political efforts and strategies, are at a position in our state, as well as our nation, that they are trying to gain political goals that (the OCA) feels are not appropriate in relationship • to these type of behaviors. "...Many of us in the culture and society view these behaviors as something we would want to keep our children from and from becoming. So, we feel that 'minority status' (for homosexuals) is not something to be granted to these type of behaviors, and that a recognition of one behavior in general ... that many people find wrong, is not a basis to grant 'minority status. "Number Two. There are many of us that are concerned with the position that some in our government are taking in manycases ... (with)peoplethat are put in charge of commissions or put in charge of different departments, and the position of some teachers in the schools and so forth." CT'hesepeopleare) " ...taking a position that homosexuality is good and normal and giving taxpayer money to state such a position. "...There's a very aggressive plan happening nationally to try and impact school curriculum through AIDS education and Project 10 and other curriculum, that homosexuality and other behaviors are good andnorrnalbehaviors,and that our children should accept them on that basis. "For that reason ...we felt that it was important to draft and fight for - in a political sense-aniternsuchasMeasure 9." Siporin: ...Isn't what people do in the privacy of their own bedroom a matter of privacy ....? Mabon:"...It's not that I approveofeverythingthatisdone in private, but I can't address, nor do I feel it's my responsibility to address what an individual does in the privacy of their home or in a private manner. "...That's why Measure 9 only deals with that which is done in the public arena, that which would be in the area of legislative law or governmental policy, or within the public · schools or the Department of Higher Education." Sioorin: "... If (Measure 9) loses big, won'tyouinfacthave played into the hands of this . supposed 'agenda' of the gay and lesbian movement?" Mabon: "Oh,absolutelynot! "... Obviously, they have developed and organiz.ed to fight this campaign. "... Our position and analysis of the situation is that they have sufficiently networked enough .... in key positions in the media and the Department of Higher Education ... "(That) homosexuals andhomosexual sympathizers -people that view homosexuality asa good andnonnal part of our culture - in the political arena have a network enough ... thattheyfelt,atleastatalocal level in some states and some cities, that they could have advanced their agenda all the way to the point and to include the points that we are trying to make off limits to that movement. "Queer Nation and Act Up andRadicalActivist ... andother groups like this that are pushing for a whole new agenda ... to force by law upon the rest of society that their behavior is going to be recognized as equal to 'national origin' and 'race' or 'gender,' and to be represented in all levels of government and society as good and normal. ''Andanybodywhoopposes that is going to be labeled a 'bigot' and a Nazi'.

About Portland Future Focus, Project 10, and a ballot (TIJRNTOMABON PAGE7) Attorney General's lawsuit nets LCC $1.9 million BY ERIC JAMES managing editor In settling a lawsuit filed two years ago, two men who built low-cost student housing in 1972haveagreed to pay $10.5 million to LCC and four other Oregon colleges, Attorney General Charles S. Crookharn announced Oct. 8. Fred H. Bender and Phillip A. McLennan, formerly operating Adult StudentHousing, Inc., an Oregon non-profit corporation, will make the payments over the next five years. ''This rights the wrongs done some years ago at the public's expense," said Crookham in the Oct. 8 statement. "These funds can now be used in the way they were first intended - for affordable student housing at Oregon community colleges and universities." The AG' s office said the agreement resolves an August,1990 lawsuit filed by the Oregon Department of Justice and Bender against McLennan, both of Hillsboro. In the 1970s the pair obtained low-costfederalloans to build student housing facilities at LCC, Mt. Hood, Clatsop CornmunityColleges, Oregon State University and Southern Oregon State College. Bender and McLennan created Adult Student Housing, Inc. (ASH) to construct and manage the facilities. According to LCCarchive files, McLennan and Bender built the 160 unit Ashlane Apartments for $1.95 million in 1972 at 475 Lindale Dr. in Springfield. They financed the project with a 3 percent, 40year loan from a federal Housing and Urban Development program. The press release from the AG'sofficethis week said that Bender and McLennan origi- nally promised to manage the facilities as student housing and that if ASH ever dissolved, they would transfer the title of the housing facilities to the educational institutions. The state alleged that ASH was formed as a charitable organization, and that ''Bender and McLennan unlawfully transferred the housing facilities to various for-profit corporations that they controlled." In the Oct. 8 news release, the AG's office said Bender and McLennan have now agreed to pay $10.5 million over five years according to a formula based on the respective value and size of the student housing facilities adjacent to the five affected educational institutions. "Each institution may use the funds to provide rent stipends to students, or to construct new student housing," according to the news release. As a part of the settlement, Multnomah County Circuit Judge Ellis ordered the dismissal of the 1990 lawsuit and authorized the Attorney General to distribute the funds. , (AG's suit Continued on page 6) .Torch staff urges students not to vote The Torch editors urge all students NOT to vote in the upcoming November elections. Use whatever excuse you like: "I don't like any of the candidates," "My vote doesn't count," ''It's too much time or trouble," or "I don't understand the issues." Just OON'T VOTE. You see, voting is a game of numbers. The fewer the total number of votes cast, the more each vote counts. And so, the fewer students who vote, the more our votes count. It could be that our votes won't count for much in the Presidential election, but the latest polls show the two candidates for Oregon's U.S. Senate seat are only two percentage points apart in voter approval. Since the statewide Democratic primary for this office was decided by only a few hundred votes, who knows how few votes will make the difference. The same logic applies to statewide measures and even more so to county and local elections. In most elections fewer than half of those eligible to vote do so. So, don't vote. And don't worry about it. You'll be carrying on a long tradition of apathy and your choices will be made for you. By those who DO vote. •'*'"·· •••, •• ••••••••• ,• •• , •• - Of those who do vote many never take the time to become fully informed about their choices. They cast their ballots based on how they "feel" about a candidate or measure, not on what they "think" after carefully and completely examining those candidates or measures. The now infamous Ballot Measure 5 is one such example. People thought it simply meant lower property taxes, but failed to read the fine print that changed the way in which taxes were to be levied. That measure passed and residential taxes went down a bit, but it was the businesses which got a windfall tax break. Most out-of-state companies simply took their millions in tax dollar savings out of Oregon. Over the last two years many who voted for Measure 5 came to realize their mistake and banded together to restore the method of taxing commercial property at a higher rate than residential property. Measure 7 is the result of that effort. Too bad more people didn't read the fine print of Measure 5 in the first place. Candidates and proponents of ballot measures can be relied upon to tell you all about their good sides. It is up to the voter to dig out the other sides, examine them all and • Aso··s -r.o ~o;o;o;o-;p;c • ' :o~o~o~o~o~o'R C ooooo c &;11 'ooooooooooc 'oooooooooo< 'oo o o o o, 1 0 0 0 0 fY 1 FOR YOUR f • ,;o~o~o~o0;o, ~o~o~o~o~~od p o o o o0 o' 1 0 0 oooooooooooo' o' ,ooooooooo o o~od =---~ 0 0 0 0 1 ~0~0~0~0~0 0 :o~o~o~o~o~, •~o~o~o~o~o~CAN D I D ATE , 0 0 o o o , 1-\ I 0 ,oo ooooooooo..,o-o o o u --- ° DOESN'T ~ogo~ogo~~~~ 0 0 0 o o o LOOK LI KE FREDDY ,00000000000000000000000000~.... oooooooooooooooooooooooooooo....

Drafting Eugene Springfield Eugene New mainframe computer impacts entire campus BY LARRY HAFrL associate editor In spring of 1992 Computer Services brought a new campus mainframe computer online and started an avalanche of demands. People have been trying to stay at least one step ahead of ever since. The new computer, a Hewlett Packard3000series 967, isa complete replacement for the old Honeywell Bull system which supported LCC for the last 8 years. The HP 967 is an excellent piece of hardware capable of fully supporting LCC into next century. Unfortunately, the computer system also needs extensive software to be useful and that's where the mountain of potential disasters comes from that people are working so hard to avoid. There are two general approaches to converting from one major computer system to another. The first is to operate the old system while you bring the new system up to fully functional and then switch over to the new system at some point. The major benefit to this approach is that when you switch over to the new system all functions provided by the old system are immediately available along with new functions made possible by the new technology. The major drawback is that it costs more in people, space and other resources to operate both systems, even if the new system is not being used to do production work. The second approach is to put the least number of functions needed to operate the college on the new system, switch to the new system and try to meet demands for other functions before those needs trigger major problems. The advantage is lower operating costs. The drawback is stress on almost everyone involved in the conversion and the very real potential for serious problems to occur. For whatever reasons, Computer Services Director Jim Keizur chose the second approach and the ramifications of that decision are impacting almost everyone on campus. Students using Classline to register for the summer sessions were the first to experience the new system. The conversion of Classlihe to the new computer required a complete rewrite of the package and, to Computer Services' credit, the system was fully operational when needed and performed flawlessly as far as students could tell. Then came Financial Aid. The new computer system became an easy excuse for many of the delays •and problems students experienced this year. Unfortunately, there were so many other contributing factors that it may be impossible to determine just how much the new system contributed to the situation. As summer drew to an end faculty and staff began preparing for fall term. By then the new system had been operational for several months, most of the critical applications were at least partially functional and Computer Services staff were managing to meet most, if not all, of their critical deadlines. One such deadline was support of the LCC Bookstore when it reopened Sept. 22. There are two computer systems used in the bookstore. People paying by cash, check or charge card use the bookstore's new departmental computer system while students charging their purchases to Financial Aid use the new campus mainframe system. Mainframe support was turned on just before the store opened on Sept. 22. Despite lack of training, bookstore staff learned to operate the new system very quickly and the long lines of waiting students began to move a little faster than they have in the past. Unfortunately, when 200 students all want to check out at the same time, as they do at times during the beginning of each term, there will still be long waits. The new mainframe system is far from finished. Keizur said, "It will take us at least a year, possibly a year and a half, to get all of the old functions available on the new sys- tern, but by then we will have a far more powerful system than we could ever have had with the old system. "The reality in any conversion of this type is that people will be inconvenienced for a while. It might as well be now as later. We're meeting our deadlines and will continue to do so." Oneexampleofthewayin which the Computer Services staff is meeting those deadlines is the production of the President's and Vice president's lists in this issue of The Torch . Monday of this week The Torch was told by Student Records that those lists were not yet available "because of the new computer system." The Torch then called Keizur and asked for his help in getting those lists. That same day Programming Manager John "Nick" Cheshire hand delivered the lists to Student Records and The Torch had them moments later. The avalanche of demands for support from the new mainframe is still rumbling downhill and it will be a while before everyone gets the support they want. Until then all we can do is go with theflow,askforhelpwhen it's really needed and hope that the lessons learned from this experience will be used to avoid unnecessary problems in future projects of this scope. Effectiveness of ASLCC Senate retreat questione d BYLARRYHAFrL associate editor During the ASLCC Senate meeting Oct. 6 in the cafeteria a 1991-92 Senator complained that members of last year's senate were not invited to participate in this year's senate leadership and training retreat. Vincent Jones, who served as a Senator and ran unsuccessfully for ASLCC Presidentthis year, said that excluding past senators limited the flow of information from the old senate to the new. He said the current Senate is wasting money because fewer than 20 people, the guaranteed minimum, participated. This year's Senate chose not to invite members from last year'ssenate and ASLCC President Bill Hollingsworth announced their decision at the last Senate meeting of Spring term. Hollingsworth said that several of the old senate's members were openly hostile toward the new senate and that their participation at the retreat would be counterproductive. As an observer of the new senate since they took office I personally witnessed several heated exchanges between the old and new guard. Reasoned debates too often turned into personal attacks. Reactivating those conflicts at the retreat would serve no useful purpose. One of the primary purposes of the Senate retreat is to improve communication skills among Senate members. At the retreat I saw people learning how to communicate with each other effectively. I was imtheir with pressed committment not to a single idea but to a philosophy that promotes listening and exchanging ideas openly. Not an easy task. As to passing information from the old to the new, in this case it would be similar to executives from General Motors telling the Japanese how to build cars. Last year's Senate seemed dysfunctional and ineffective. As to wasting money, the Senate deliberately chose Lost Valley Educational Center to keep costs down. Unlike previous years, senators payed for all snack foods from their own pockets. In past years it was not uncommon to lose over half the senate members before fall term began. This year all but one senator participated in the retreat. This is a reflection of the commitment I saw in the new Senators to responsibly fulfill their duties. ~ Measure 9 upholds the Christian fundamentals that are the core of the OCA's ~ existence • • • -,, Lon more, us Tell ~ persecution survived they ✓ Fundementals so true and righteous, .,-< from the Roman state ...

Measure 9, based as it is upon deliberate misinformation, constitutes the worst abuse of religious freedom ever witnessed in this country. For example, the OCA defines equal employment and housing rights for homosexuals as being "special rights." Having a job is not a special right; having a place to shelter, likewise,is not a special right. These rights are, in America, the guaranteed rights of everyone, homosexuals included, who is willing to work for them. Unfortunately, without civil rights laws which specifically ban discrimination based on sexual orientation, gay people can lose both their homes and their jobs, and be left with no legal recourse to reclaim them, regardless of Constitutional guarantees. The OCA contends that homosexuals are not a legitimate minority as compared, categorically, to race, religion, or ethnic creed. Each of these categories is, of course, separate and distinct, one from the other. The issue, however, is not one of categorical difference, but rather one of discrimination, which Measure 9 would legalize. (For the record, Webester' s dictionary defines minority as "less than half"). Contrary to another OCA mistruth, Homosexuality is not the same as pedophilia, sadism, or masochism. By incorrectly lumping these phenomenon together, the OCA fosters the illusion that overt prejudice against homosexuals is necessary, in some inexplicable fashion, to the maintenance of traditional American values. Since when, one wonders, has the socially destructive institutions of prejudice been a boon to this or any other nation? Additionally, it would well suit the OCA to have us believe the falsehood that homosexuality is a matter of choice. Given the abuse that homosexuals are subjected to in our society (witness Measure 9) , who would "choose" to be gay? Please reflect back to the time when you first became aware of your own sexual orientation. Did this awakening require, on your part, a conscious, sitting-down decisionmaking process, as is necessary to the making of a choice, or was this awakening rather, for you, a matter of discovery? Finally, we come to the cruel OCA argument that the inclusion of the category sexual-orientation in hate crime laws "promotes" homosexuality. Statistically, homosexuals are the most frequent victims of such crimes. Their exclusion from hate crime laws, as mandated by Measure 9, promotes the sinful idea it is "okay'' to verbally and physically assault a gay man or lesbian woman. Existing laws, however strict, are not strict enough, at any level, to act as an effective deterrent to the ever-growing number of often violent gay-bashing incidents. In a recent letter to Newsweek magazine, one Washington state resident made the astute and honest observation that the OCA is "like the Ku Klux Klan without the robes." Given that fact, and those above, there is really only one question left to ask of Oregon voters: How will you be voting "NO'' on Measure 9? Steve M. Moore Close Trojan More than 15 years ago I became the first person to be arrested at the Trojan nuclear plant, and 95 other prisoners of conscience quickly joined me on the bus bound for Multnomah County jail. One of the jailers asked why we blockaded the plant. As I explainedmyreaso ns,helookasmore and more upset. "It sounds to me," he said, ''like they've arrested the wrong people!" Following a well-publicized trial with testimony by cancer researchers, an insurance company executive, and a former Oregon Deparbnent of Energy head, the ''Trojan %" were acquitted. The jury heard our message: Listen to the facts, Oregonians; you are in danger; you've been entrapped by a shabby investment which imperils countless future generations. Since then, the people of this state have missed several democratic opportunities to remove this cancer form our midst. For ten years I have practiced as a physician and have always been affiliated with the American Public Health Association. The data we had in the '70s concerning the health risks of nuclear power has only increased and become more condemning. Recent seismological evidence shows that Trojan has always been a disaster waiting to happen. We have two more opportunities at the polls. Oregonians must on be fooled by the millions of corporate advertising dollars. PGE now says ''We'llshutitdown anywayby1996." Like they took care of their was pools by 1980 (still there, and overloaded)? Shutting down Chernobyl 1991 would have been four years too late! Vip Short New state tax Recently I attended an open public meeting concerning the state tax system. The main speaker was a gentleman from Portland, who with severalothers,havespentoverl0years constructing a new tax plan that will rewrite Oregon's current aging and unfair tax laws. The Idea is simple. First, eliminate ALL taxes, fees, and assessments paid now by citizens and businesses. This includes income tax, property tax, weight-mile tax, cigarette tax,and over 30 more taxes, along with hundreds of fees and assessments. Then replace all those with a single 2% Equal Tax. The 2% is derived by taking Oregon's current trade revenues of $8 Billion and dividing that by Oregon's current trade revenue of $400 Billion. We all paid these costs last year, only some paid too much, some paid too little, and some didn't pay at all. This way everyone pays the same. At present Oregonians pay a total of 13-17% of their incomes to the state in taxes. Under the new plan they would only pay 2% for each dollar they spend, no matter what their incomes. The extra 11-15% each of us is already paying now is going in the people's pockets. To see how it works, consider this: if you spend $10,000 a year then only 2% or $200 is all the taxes you pay for the year. If you spend $50,000 a year then only 2% or $1000 is all the taxes the taxes you pay for the year. You only pay 2% of what you spend. Most people who have taken the time to listen to this idea are saying it won't work because it is too simple. They believe there is a catch somewhere that will cause them to end up paying more taxes. One man shouted "smoke and mirrors" at the meeting. People are conditioned to believe that taxes must be complicated. They are wrong. This plan shows us that. There will beno more tax increases witho~t a 60% majority vote of the people. The 2% tax will be the only tax allowed. There will be no more government threats of foreclosure on property that a person has spent 30 years paying off because there will be no more property taxes. And a peopleelected Treasurer will be in charge of disbursing the funds throughout the state. Government rejects this plan because it takes their control over the people. That is why it took private citizens to write it. But, are we here to serve their needs or are they here to serve ours? Many people in the state haven't heard about this plan because the gentlemen don't have the big bucks' to run expensive ads and promotions. they travel around the state presenting their idea one town at a time and hope the word gets out that there is an alternative to being taxed to death. Please help them to help us. Call the DIRECT LEGISLATION LEAGUE at 239-5949 for more information of write to then at PO Box 15023, Portland, Oregon 97215. Petitions need to be signed to show the people in Salem that we are tired of the way that they do business. Linda Covell Torch throws tantrum I can see by the editorial on institutional arthritis that parents are confusing the Torch office with the day care facility. Kids have seized the presses and a tantrum was thrown. Yes children, LCC could be improved in some areas, but the tirade you published was journalistic rubbish. The unanimous agreement of what a fine institution LCC is didn't defray my ire at some other remarks. First, the faculty of LCC. As someone aspiring to be a teacher, I can tell you that it is hard work, long hours, and it is a profession that you must constantly work at to improve or you will be out of a job. As for students selecting the right road to meet their goals, LCC has counseling and a library. Also, there is no shortage of publicatio~ available to steer you. True, some students aremoreconcerned aboutahighgrade than learning, but I always found when I earned an II A" I learned an IIA."

Just to do the best you can and everything falls into place. I have never met an instructor who was so rigid that they wouldn't work with me. Use good manners, tact and respect and you will go far. The gripe about financial aid was hard to stomach. Look, if you're eligible and get it, count your blessings. It is a hassle and inconvenient, but the price is right. The whining about some obsolete equipment in technical courses was uncalled for. LCC is not MIT, and has budget problems. You will have to do the best you can with what you have. Finally, the attack on the cafeteria and culinary areas. The food provided is affordable, wholesome and served and prepared in the kitchens of hospital cleanliness. You can always brown bag it or go off campus. There used to be gourmet dinners prepared by Culinary Arts students that would knock you out. It may still be going. The bottom line is still: I can use a ten key by touch, have set up a manual accounting system for a business, have become an ardent environmentalist from Biology and Oceanography classes at Lane, -a nd I no longer fear Math. I even have becomeafree-lance writer. I owe all that to LCC. Will Someone come pick up Paul Greenberg's kids from the Torch office and paddle their rear ends? Life is hard; get used to it.

Not all learning happens in a classrootn BY LARRY HAFTL associate editor If all you do at LCC is attend classes then you are missing out on many of the learning opportunities that occur on the LCC campus every day. Guest speakers, honor society, special interest clubs, discussion groups, student government and publishing a student newspaper are just a few of the many diverse activities available to LCC students. As diverse as these activities are, they have at least two things in common. The first is that they are all supported _by the Student Activities department and the second is that theyusuallytakeplaceinother than traditional classroom settings. Student Activities Director Barbara Delansky says, "You can learn a lot more if you .stick around and get involved with activities on campus than if you just go to classes. Kind of a value added approach to education." An easy way to get involved is by joining one of the many special interest clubs. Native American Student Association, Student Organized Multi-Ethnic club, Learning Club, Chess Club, African-· American Students Union and Gay, Lesbian, Bisexual Alliance are just a few of wide selection available. If you earn a GPA of 3.85 or better during any term you will be invited to join Phi Theta Kappa, the honors fraternity. Members are eligible to compete for special scholarships and participate in special leadership training seminars. One such seminar will be held this January. Materials for the seminar were developed and tested by the national office of Phi Theta Kappa over a five year period. LCC is one of only 30 colleges nationwide whichhave been accepted into this program. Other programs operated through Student Activities include the Multi-Cultural Center and International Studen ts Program. Delansky says, "The two programs are philosophically going in opposite directions. Multi-Cultural celebrates peoples' own unique cultural identities while the International Student Program tries to help international students adjust to the American way of life, become assimilated into American culture in order to function effectively while attending LCC. Our challenge this year is to find ways in which z 0 ~ ~ ~t= : Ill 0 n ,, ,. b de ASLCC Cultural Director Melonie Rollln and Student Activities Director Barbara Delansky discuss plans for several upcoming ASLCC sponsored even1s. Delansky maintains an open door pollcy to all students and provides support for non-Instructional student , activities. participants of both programs can share in common activities." Attending events is another way students can experience diversity. On Martin Luther King, Jr. Day, Jan. 18, LCC begins a week-long "Celebration of Diversity" with special programs at the HultCenter. Delansky has also arranged for Shirley Chisholm, the first black fe- male Representative to the U.S. Congress, to speaker on campus Friday, Jan. 22. Other events include twice monthly concerts at lunchtime in the cafeteria, a series of visiting art exhibits and critic's lectures, poetry readings, Native American Pow Wows and Earth Week. Delansky says, "I look at myself more as a facilitator to the students for whatever the students want to do. If I'm doing my job right there should be a lot of very positive things going on around campus with a lot of students getting quality experiences, being very visible and getting a lot of credit. My job, and the job of Student Activities, is to support them and make sure they have access to the resources they need to make it all happen."

Local group releases tape prior to tour BY LUKE STRAHOTA arts & entertainment editor At some point in a band's life, the members are apt to make a decision - to stay in their home town, content on playing the same bars and catering to locals, or to travel from state to state, in hopes of making a name for themselves. If there's ever a band to put Eugene on the map of music, The Renegade Saints may be the one to do it. ''You can't live off your band by staying in the same town. We decided as a band, that if we wanted to move up, we had to start touring and playing anywhere we can," says guitarists, Alan Torbio. The group's Western states tour will kick off Friday, Oct. 9 at Eugene's John Henry's to celebrate its first, full length studio production. After the tape release party, the group will travel through Utah, Washington, Oregon, Colorado, Idaho, and Montana. While some may liken the group to up and coming national acts like Wide Spread Panic, Phish, and Little Women, the members ·them-: selves say their ''Bohemian Boogie Grind" sound differs from what listeners and promoters think. "What people categorize you is from what the crowd looks like. It's easier to label a band by looking at their _following instead of what the musicians are reallyplaying," says organ player Mike Walker. With danceable, high-tolow energy grooves, the fivemember band incorporates Eric Oapton, Santana, Little Feat and the Allman Brothers influence for their sound. Eugene's Northwest Independent Music News says that ''There's not a tense momen t on the . stage. The (band's) attitude spills forth to the audience who is soon grooving, bouncing, and smiling themselves." The Renegade Saints appreciate their fans. They send girl who used to live in Eupost cards around the coun- gene and barely knew who try, informing fans what the we were gave us her apartgroup is up to and future tour mentkey so we'd have a place dates. to stay," says drummer Matt "Our fans have been the Reynolds. greatest.
