According to Fossen, although they were limited, the students' comments were very positive: "One student commented that he had supported the increase to maintain the quality of education provided, and he thought that in spite of the increase, tuition at LCC was still a 'real bargain," she said.

In an open forum held Wednesday, Feb.17, VicePresidentofStudentServices Linda Fossen and tuition committee members answered any questions students might have had about the proposed increase. According to the proposal, the Tuition Committee recommended that one dollar of the $2 increase be designated for support service areas. Fossen said, "One of the things that we noticed was that, in general, students had some very good questions about the processes involved with the decision to raise tuition. However we also saw an understanding of the budget crunch and got the feeling that students agreed with the recommendation." The committee's recommendations Fossen went on to say that the raise in tuition would, "help a little in softening the blow, but it doesn't make up for what we lose due to cuts from Measure 5." l'HOTO 8" WOODY Take the Pesti Challenge On Wednesday Feb.17, OSPIRG held a Pesticide Action Day from 1Oa.m. - 2 p.m. In the cafeteria.

ASLCC gets new Presiden t, Vice Presiden t BY LARRY HAFTL associate editor Due to the recent resignation of Bill Hollingsworth, John Mitchell is now ASLCC President. At the Feb. 16 Senate meeting, Mitchell nominated and the Senate confirmed D.J. Holbrook as Vice President.

Mitchell said his first priority is to improve communication between students and their government. "I want to show the students that they can and will be heard at Senate meetings, that their opinions and ideas count and that we, the Senate, are interested in hearing what they have to say," said Mitchell. "My next priority is saving Student Health Services, but not at the expense of other programs."

Production, transport and use of pesticides threatens public health and the quality of the environment, including our valuable groundwater resources. The federal Environmental Protection Agency estimates that 10 percent of domestic wells nationwide have detectable levels of pesticides. Oregon has a reputation as a state that perceives environmental problems and takes proactive steps to solve them. We have led the nation in reducing use of ozone-depleting CFCs, encouraging indusLries to reduce their use of toxic chemicals, and improving recycling. We should apply these same ideas to the area of pesticide use. Oregonians need and want good current informa- tion about what pesticides get used and where. We want the polluters to pay for programs to clean up the contamination that they cause. We need to promote reductions in the use of these toxic chemicals through more research into alternatives and a statewide focus on reducing the use of pesticides. In 1985, Sweden set a national goal of reducing pesticide use by 50 percent within five years. After achieving the goal, Sweden set out to reduce use by another 50 percent. Denmark and the Netherlands are in the process of similar cutbacks. Indonesia has reduced pesticide use by 60 percent overall through an Integrated Pest Management program for rice, its major staple crop. These programs are reducing purchased chemical inputs and promoting an environmentally sustainable agriculture. Oregon should do as well.

HY DON REYNOLDS slaffwriler Lane Community College Students can work at Walt Disney World in Florida and earn college credit through a program which some students have called a "life changing experience." The program, Walt Disney World College Program, is offered by Disney in conjunction with the LCC Cooperative Edu. cation Department. It consists of an eight to 14 week course of seminars, programs and work experience for qualifying students. Business majors, Tourism/ Sccretari al, Performing Arts and P.E. majors who qualify as lifeguards have a priority ranking, but students from a variety of other majors have gone, says Linda Myers, Coordinator of Cooperative Education/Disney World. Students are selected on the basis of appearance and grooming, poise and manner, "spiel ability" and related work experience. Plane fare to Florida is the responsibility of the student. Once there the student moves into an apartment in a large complex called Vista Way, sharing accommodations with four other students. Disney guarantees 30 hours of work each week for each student. Rent is deducted from each paycheck. "It's not a moneymaking venture," Myers says, "but it is a wonderful learning experience." The student must sign up for a minimum of three credits in a relevant area of study at LCC, keep a journal. while at Walt Disney World and organize other projects with their CED coordinator says coordinator Peggy Marston. Students participate in a series of seminars which involve three hours of class time each week and group outings to Epcot Center, MGM Studios and The Magic Kingdom, according to ·the "Program Overview" published by Walt Disney World. At the end of the fourth seminar groups of students are assigned projects which they spend several weeks implementing. They market the ideas they have developed to Disney Management in a professiQnal presentation. And Disney listens.

Students from -Lane, who have attended sessions at the Disney College Program, gave it a unanimous thumbs-up. "Incredible, fun, excellent," said Elizabeth Finely who attended during the Winter/Spring term of 1992, "I'd give anything to go back." Finely changed her major from Iµternational Business to Hotel/Restaurant Management as a result of her "life changing" experience at Walt Disney World. ' Thomas Carpe'r who went to Disney World in the Fall of 1991 stressed the growth he experienced. "It made me much more independent, made me see things in a completely different light, things I've never seen before."

Lane hosts exhibit showcasing skillfully crafted metalworks BY LUKE STRAHOTA arts& entertainment editor Throughout the years, metalsmiths have pounded, cast, and transformed one of the most resistant mediums into . works of art. Whether used to support a building, worn as -jewelry, or sculpted into design, few materials possess the qualities of strength and beauty that metal does. "Vessels," a national mctalsmithingcxhibition currently or:idisplay inside the LCC ArtDcpartmcntGallery,showcases metal artwork ranging from everyday objects to the avantguard. As something that begins from a flat sheet in its early form, the metal used for the pieces in this show have been transformed into intricately designed boxes, functional coffee sets, elaborate vases, and more. "The fact that these works al1 start out the same as sheets of metal and then arc turned into something artistic is one of the amazing aspects of mcta1smithing.

The play, which takes place in a television studio will be presented in the Media Arts Department's studio on LCC's main campus. Classic play explores question of reality with contemporary twist HY LUKE STRAH OT A arts & entertainment editor Luigi Pirandello probably never ex pccted the reaction he recci ved when the first showing of his play "Six Characters in Search of an Author" was presented to the public in 1921. Back then, audience members arrived to a drawn curtain, take their seats, and wait for the show. However, at this particular show they were met with an open curtain and a stage with no scenery. The stage technicians and actors stood around as though they were waiting for a rehearsal. Minutes into the performance (although the audience didn't know if it was a real per- formance or not) six people walked into the theater claiming they are characters who have been left out of a story by an author who neglected to include them. It is in this theater that they must have their story told. It was also in that theater that an angry mob of audience members chased down Pirandello after the performance for presenting such a strange and non-traditional play. • Taking this sort of separation between fantasy and reality one step further, the LCC Performing Arts Department presents "Six Characters in Search of and Author" with a modem WANT TO START A NEW RECOVERY MEETING ON CAMPUS?

After researching the play, Director Joeseph Gilg realized that everything done in the first version that seemed so foreign then, has been overdone, so he came up with his own idea. "I decided to place the action in a television studio. This way we 're able to take the debate that already exists in the script between the theater company and characters about illusion and reality and add in the layer of television and video tape," says Gilg. According to Gilg, this version uses updated terminology with out changing the story. The six characters are from the 1920s, just as in the original, but this time they'll enter a television studio in the 1990s to tell their story. The whole production is made in hopes of catching audience members off bal anee. "By having to question what's going on, there will be a constant intellectual situation happening. By the end of the play, things will come into somewhat of a context, but later you '11 discover other possibilities," says Gilg.

They got it as they beat the sixth place road runners 85-59. With this victory Lane clinched second place in the Southern Conference. The win also insured them a home regional playoff game in the first round against Chemeketa, Clackamas, or Umpqua. • The Titans led throughout the game. They opened the contest by scoring the first six points. They set the tone by fast breaking up and down the court in a vigorous fashion, and pounding the ball inside while running their half-court offense. The Lady Titans shot poorly in the first half shooting only 38 percent from the field, but they were able to build an eight point lead of 42-34 at the half. The second half was all Lady Ti tans, as they scored the first eight points of the half to build a 14-point lead of 50-36 and they never looked back from there. Lane continued their cold shooting throughout the second half but it did not matter as the Lady Titans played tough defense and crashed the glass for rebounds and ended the game with a very impressive victory. Graves, who is accustomed to coming off the bench, got the starting nod along with her three other sophomore counterparts Milburn, Margaret Hayenga and Stefani Backes. Graves played an O(!tstanding game which included 22 points and 17 rebounds. Hayenga said after the game," We played the whole 40 minutes, our whole team had a great attitude. She must have had a great attitude as she went out and scored 10 points grabbed 11 rebounds and four steals. "This was a great way to go into the playoffs, and a great way to head into the Mt. Hood game," Milburn commented af. ter the game where she finished with 15 points four rebounds, nine assists and six steals. Backes only scored two points but did add three assists and a steal.

With the victory, the Titans not only avenged an earlier loss to the Roadrunners, but also moved into a tie for second place with Chemeketa in the Northwest Athletic Association of Community Colleges standings. Clackamas leads the NWAACC with a league record of 12-1. The game started off slow1y, with both teams employing a slow down offense, but a number of early lead changes gradually made the game more exciting. "We were a little flat (against Linn-Benton)," Head Coach Jim Boutin said. "We probably got out of structure a little too much." Rasmussen led the Titans with 22 points, while Snyder contributed 15 and Jon Rider added 14. Titan center Mark Nipp controlled the boards during the game, grabbing 10 rebounds and scoring 13 points. "I was really pleased for Jon (Rider)," Boutin said. "He really stepped up." At the half, the Titans led 35-29, but the Roadrunners were not about to give up. Withjustover 16minutes to play, Linn-Benton's Mark Holmes drilled a deep three pointer to tie the score at 40. At the six minute mark, the Titans led by a mere one point, 61-60. But the rest of the game leaned to the their advantage as they outscored Linn-Benton 14- 5. The straw that broke the Roadrunner's back for good came with around two minutes to play.

BY DON REYNOLDS staff writer Responding to a lack of classroom space between 8 a.m. and 2 p.m., the Lane Community College Office oflnstruction has scheduled classes off campus, causing some students confusion and inconvenience. The courses: math, writing and psychology, have been held at the Springfield Depot because higher than expected enrollment led to a shortage of available space at the main campus, says Jim Ellison, vice president of instruction. "We looked (for a location off campus) out of necessity," explains Ellison. Although several locations were considered, the depot was chosen because it Feb.·-19-22 oolJ~@@~@@@m is a short drive to campus and the price was right: it's free. Ellison also stressed LCC's committment to use resources that already exist within the community. Of three courses scheduled for the depot this term, only oneMath 95-is still in session. Lack of student attendance caused the writing and pscyhology courses to be cancelled. Some students were surprised to find that they had enrolled in an off campus course. Location of the courses was listed as TBA (to be announced) in LCC schedules and made no comment about the possibility of the courses being held at the depot. .

News 8 February 19, 1993 VESSELScont.frompage4 actual prayers are cast onto the elaborate vase. Some artists fii1d the slow process of metalsmithing helpful as they work with every detail. For example, both of Patricia Nelson's copper and silver boxes possess a quality of accomplished craftsmanship and fashion through precise soldering and intricate pattern designs. Eugene artist Marcia Macdonald has submitted a piece taken from the idea of a typical colander. Instead of having normal holes for the water to run through, hers are comprised of dots and notches laid out in morse code, which according to Macdonald, enables her to express herself with metal the way other artists would with materials such as clay. With many more extraordinary works displayed, the show offers to the viewer a fascinating look into the realm of what is currently being done with metalsmithing. "Vessels" will run through March 12· with a reception set for Friday, Feb. 19 at 7 :30 p.m. inside the LCC Art Department Gallery. SENATE cont. from page 3 He noted that SRC staff are being cross trained in other counseling functions so that they will be able to give more meaningful responses to student inquiries. Holbrook also reported that one SRC staff member was assigned to do informal student polls. The first poll question asked if studenls would be in favor of a $6 fee per term to fund Student Health Services. The SRC received 80 responses in favor of such a fee and two responses opposed to the idea. Holbrook emphasized that the polls are not scientific but thought such polls might be of use to the Senate in gathering student input. In other business, the Senate: •Ratified the Professional Aviation Maintenance Association. •Tabled a motion to fund the Communications Committee until more information is available. •Tabled discussion of a memorial fund in memory of Donovan Rubio. •Tabled discussion of a possible demonstration of appreciation to Hollingsworth for his actions during the first part of the school year.
