after the damage is corrected.

Arson is suspected to be the cause of the
April 12 fire in Room 307 of the Forum
Building, according to Ruby Scruggs of the
Oregon State Police Department.
Campus security officers evacuated students and staff while the Goshen Fire Department battled the small blaze around 9:30
am.
Chief Richard Nice of the Goshen Fire
Department said most of the damage was
sustained to a projection screen, blackboard,
and podium in the front of the lecture room.
Adjacent classrooms were reopened
shortly after 2 p.m.
Damage to the building has been estimated by Chief Nice at $2,000. Mark Merrill
of Oregon State Police Department is investigating the case as possible arson.
Vince Mowry of Spectra Systems says
the clean-up will take his crew into the middle
of next week. At that time the room will be
open to students again.

Dislocated workers
look to future after
graduation

During a brief lull in the
festivities at last week's "Back
to Work"rally, ex-mill hand and
now dislocated worker program
graduate Lyle Ofsthun grinned
broadly, "It feels good," he said.
Ofsthun' s sense of achievement reverberated throughout
the rally held for nearly 400 dislocated timber workers who are
either graduating or departing
the LCC program.

Complete with cheerleaders,
balloons, inspirational speakers
and live music by Glenn Jones
and the Southbound Band, the
event was organized by dislocated worker program employee
Louise Fletcher to put former
timber workers in contact with
local employers.
"Our goal is to make sure
these people are aware of the
resources available to them, because there are jobs out there,
it's all a frame of mind," she
said.

ASLCC Pres explains actions
Fellow Students,
I write this letter because I feel it is
necessary to explain to you why the
referendums that were placed before me
had to be vetoed, as well as why the
weekly senate meeting was postponed
'from Tuesday (4-13-93) to Thursday (4iS-93). This is your government, we
represent you, and you have every right to
have these actions explained.
First, the referendums were vetoed
because there is strong evidence, as well
as a fairly widespread belief, that they
were decided upon in my opinion, a way
that might be considered. A violation of
public meeting laws, which we as a
student body government are subject to.
Attacking nobody and intending no
statement as to whether the referendums
were good or bad, I feel the procedure
from which they came was a violation, so
therefore I had no choice but to veto
them. President Moskus was informed of
my d~cision and the reasons for it, and
has agreed to work with us in order to

move the process forward in a constructive, legal fashion.
As for the senate meeting, this was
simply an unfortunate accident. Agendas
were not posted, the student body did not
know what was going to be discussed. As
a result, according to our by-laws as well
as federal public meeting laws, as they
were explained to me, I had no choice but
to postpone the meeting. This student
government will abide by the rules and
laws that are meant to govern us. The
difficulties are unfortunate, and for that I
apologize to the student body. There was,
however, no other legal option available
to me. The by-laws are there for a
purpose, and we will abide by them. We
are making every effort to fulfill our
responsibilities to this student body
legally, and I thank you for your patience
and support.

Retired railroad worker
proposes light rail system
BY MICHAEL GOODWIN

Senate·/ ocuses on ballot
measure proposals
BY LARRY HAFfL

associate editor

staff writer

A romantic idea from the
past may soon be a practical idea
in the future to solve the increasing problems LCC faces
with students driving and trying
to find parking places on campus.
Students may someday be able
to ride to school on trolley cars.
The idea of street car access
to LCC is part of a plan devised
by former Southern Pacific
Railroad conductor and brakeman, Ray Robinson.
Robinson, 50 a seven-year Eugene resident , formerly of
Dunsmuir, Calif has devised an
idea for a revolutionary new
mass-transit program.
He wants to combine a street
car system in Eugene-Springfield with a railroad theme park
in Creswell. He also wants to
open up existing rail lines to
include light rail commuter traffic to south Lane County.
The theme park would be
operated by the Emerald Empire
Railroad, a non-profit corporation devoted to the two part idea
of transportation and recreation.
According to an article in
The Oregonian, last year; the
Creswell City Council has given
Robinson "conceptual permission" to run a small gauge track
from the city's airport to the
Emerald Valley Resort's restaurant.
Funding for the street car
project, says Robinson, could
come from a $15 million taxexe_mpt bond levy. "First we need
todo a feasibility study. IfLCOG
accepts the possibility of rail
transit as an aitemative source

Robinson says, "this plan

OSPIRG seeks continued funding
BY ANGELO VERNA
staff writer

As the ASLCC student body moves towards its general elections on May 4-6, the
question of organization funding has become an
issue.
For campus members of the Oregon StudentPublicinterestResearchGroup(OSPIRG),
that means asking students to continue to ante
up $2 in student activity fees to continue the
program at Lane.
OSPIRG defines itself as a state wide organization that concerns itself with three main
issue areas: Pollution prevention, resource organization and consumer protection. In 1990,
LCC students voted to form an OSPIRG chapter
and join a state wide organization that includes
Lewis and Clark College, Portland State University and the University of Oregon.
"Students at Lane Community College in
1990 really found that they did not have an
organization that specifically allowed them to
work on issues that most concerned them in the
community," explains UO and LCC OSPIRG
staff member Gretchen Haber.
OSPIRG has been instrumental in supplying students with education and information on
many community and campus-oriented issues,
among them the Lane County .Survival Guide,
which compares prices and services among
Lane County retailers, and a renter's pamphlet
containing commonly asked questions about
rental agreements.
"Our goal is to actively get involved in

citizen issues," continues Harber, "to be able to
work on issues that affect us all as people. Many
students at Lane have children for example, so
toy safety becomes an issue lo them. Al). extensive toy safety analysis by OSPIRG has been very
beneficial to this segment of society by allowing
them to become educated and safety conscious
consumers."
Haber says OSPIRG's research was responsible for the 1991 passage of the Oregon Recycling Program, which she calls one of the most
comprehensive recycling programs in the country.
OSPIRG is accountable to the student body.
Every three years LCC students can vote to
eliminate or continue OSPIRG funding.
OSPIRG has some opponents. "In general, I
think it's a good idea but I don't think they do
enough for the money they receive, money that
could be better spent on healthcare," says student
John Hord. "We're faced with the closure of the
health center and I think it (the health center)
helps the students in a more direct fashion."
But Paya Surface says OSPIRG has helped
her put things into perspective on many local
issues.
"OSPIRG has provided me with references
and statistics concerning the state of Lane
County's hungry and homeless families, encouraging me to become more active in local politics," she said. "I think OSPIRG serves as a
model for the future of public service while
providing · local jobs aimed at solving the
community's problems."

•Shall the $2 per term
mandatory student fee for
OSPIRG be made optional?
Following the meeting,
ASLCC President John
Mitchell vetoed the decisions
saying, "I'm not sure thatstudents had enough time to give
the Senate input on these
measures so I decided to veto
them for now. They can be
brought up at the next meeting and discussed there."
The Senate overrode
Mitchell's veto at its April 15
meeting and amended tht.first
measure to read $6 instead of
the original $7.
The four measures will
now go to the LCC Board of
Education for review at its
April 19 meeting. The Board
has the authority to approve
or withhold from inclusion

Group frOm Eugene
finding success with
Portland music scene
BY LUKE STRAHOTA
arts & entertainment editor

It was about this time last year that Eugene opened its ears
to perhaps one of its most promising- acts. Telephone poles
fattened with layer upon layer of concert flyers revealed a new
band with with a misleading name.
Those who ventured inside the club to where this group
played soon found the name Jolly Mon fronted not another
typical Eugene reggae band. Instead, what they found, was a
not-so-typical, high-energy three piece unit laced with the power
of Jane's Addiction, the funk'°pchedeliea of Primus topped off
with a dash of Bob Marley. Add a thunderous drum section in
which (at certain times) ail three members participate in and you
have a band who brewed Eugene audiences_in a pot of boiling,
·dance induced sweat.
_
Since then, Jolly Mon, who's members include bassist/
vocalist Carey Rich, guitarist/vocalist Carl Ferris-Becker and
drummer Greg Eklund, has gained wide-spread popularity
throughout the Northwest. With a move from Eugene to
Portland in June of 92' the group has found the move benefitial.
Portland have proven good to the band with press and an
accepting music scene. Portland music magazine "Two Louies"
has quoted Jolly Mon among other up and coming groups as
defining the "Portland sound."
Rich has a bit different feel towards the quote.
"Portland is getting pretty big now. There's Pond playing
on MTV and they 're on the level, of like ..... and I hate using this
word, but like 'Pop-grunge.' Bands like us ,and Hitting Birth are
a lot more psychedelic in a ~ay. I don't think there will be a
certain Portland "sound," but I do think think that there is a good
mixture of good bands that is a lot better than Seattle."
Currently, Rich says the group is beginning to ditch its
element of funk and experiment in different elements or what
Rich refers to as '"mellow-ethnic.' Sort of a cross between
Peter Gabrial and Paul Simon," he says.
Perhaps the new sounding songs may mellow the groups
crowd out a bit. At the last few Eugene shows, Rich noticed an
increase in the amount of "rough and tumble" audience members
who took advantage of the term "slam dancing" to put their
aggressions out on other dancers. ·
In order to calm the crowd at their next show, Rich jokingly
says the group will bring cinder blocks to throw at out-of-control
thugs.
Surprisingly, despite the popularity Jolly Mon has gained
throughout the Northwest, the group has yet to release any CD
or tape. Rich says the band is beginning to record for a CD
scheduled to be out in late August on Elemental Records.
Jolly Mon will appear at the W.O.W. Hall on Friday, April
16 with guests Sage and Anzio Bridgehead. Admission is $6 at
the door with the show beginning at 9:30 p.m.

WHEN UO CHANGES to a credit requirement

instead of a course requirement, many courses will
be worth four credits instead of three.
BY DON RENOLDS
staff writer

~

An estimated 50 LCC students learned about UO credit
changes at a workshop
Wednesday, April 7, according LCC Academic Advisor
Charlene Blinn.
Blinn and UO Assistant
Admissions Director Ken Carpenter answered students'
questions about the new UO
credit requirements that go into
effect Fall Tenn, 1993.
The hour long workshop,
the second of four sponsored
by the LCC Counseling Department, provided general infonnation on the changes for
students planning to transfer to
the UO, says Blinn.
Under the new plan many
UO courses will be worth four
credits instead of the three
credits, said Carpenter. Instead
of requiring six courses to fulfill
a group requirement, the new
plan requires 16 credits-four
courses-to meet the requirement.
"The new plan gives gives
students a lot more flexibility,"
Carpenter explained, because
the school is changing "from a

5

course requirement to a credit
requirement."
The new plan will replace
the current" 1990 plan"; it will
affect students who have not
enrolled at the UO before.
"When in doubt, a student
can follow the 1990 plan because it is more difficult (academically) than the new plan,"
Carpenter said, but he strongly
urged transfer students to talk
to anadviseratLaneorthe UO.
Carpenter and Blinn agreed
that the changes will have little
effect on most LCC students
who are planning to transfer,
but Blinn emphasized the importance of advising, particularly for "individual students
who have credits (from previous schooling at Lane), students who have gone to other
schools, and students who have
credits from schools using a
semester system."
Carpenter stated that the
UO will still give priority to
students with the Associate of
Arts, Oregon Transfer Degree
(AAOT), but Blinn noted that
the AAOT is not the only option for students planning to
transfer to a four year univer-

sity. For some students - especially those just starting at
Lane - other options may enable them to achieve their goals
more effectively, she said.
Some students encounter
difficulty when they neglect to
apply for their degree from
Lane, says Blinn. She recalled
one student who was refused
junior status at the U O after she
had earned an A.A.O.T. Blinn
found that the student didn't
apply for her transfer degree,
so the U O had admitted her as
a direct transfer student.
Students who have officially enrolled at the UO except Community Education
students - are limited to direct transfer of courses between
LCC and the UO, warns Blinn.
The next transfer workshop
with Blinn and Carpenter will
be held Friday, April 30, at
1 :00 p.m. in Center 8.

How have you been affected
by alcohol or other drug abuse?
, Afcderallymandatedsurvey
will be distributed toLCC students
Wednesday, April 21. Substance
Abuse Prevention Coordinator
Mark Harris says the college will
administer the survey to 1000
credit students in randomly chosen classes. The students will
represent a cross section of the
students attending LCC. He explains that the federal government
requires all colleges to distribute
the sur:.vey.
The survey is designed to
determine how frequently students
have contact with dugs and alcohol and to find out if students are
aware of the campus drugs and
alcohol policy and prevention
program. Infonnation gathered
will be used to justify the fedcral
funding for the prevention program.
According to Harris, this
survey is totally voluntary. "I encourage people to do it, but it's
okay if they don't," he says.
''The Drug Free Schools and
Communities Act of 1986 states
that all the schools have to have a

policy that forbids use of illicit
substances and abuse of alcohol,
have personnel in place to get
people help and document what
help is given."
Harris says that the survey
will "give scientific infonnation
about what's going on here (regarding drugs and alcohol).It will
also help me to target services
better and increase students'
knowledge about LCC's prevention program.
"I want students to answer
the questions honestly, without
minimizing or exaggerating. No
instructor will be present during
the survey and no names are required," says Harris.
"The instructor will leave the
room for about 20 minutes and a
volunteer will administer the
survey," he says.
Substance Abuse Prevention
Assistant Coordinator Keri
McKenzie says that they are "in
desperate need of volunteers to
distribute the survey."
If students aren't in the classes
selected for the survey, but wish
to participate in or would like to
help distribute it, they can contact
Mark Harris in Apr. 215 or call
ext. 2178.

Track and field
swing into Spring
BY DOUG BAUER
staff writer

With Steve Coxon, last
year's NW AACC pole vault
champion leading the way, the
LCC Titans track team hopes to
improve on this year's accomplishments in the NW AACC
tournament as its season goes
into its final stage.
With the Oregon Invitational
at Hayward Field April 17-18
and the Lane Invitational April
24 at South Eugene High School,

the Titans hope to get into gear
for the Southern Regional
Championships and the
NW AACC tournament.
"We should be much improved from last year," Titan
coach Brad Joens said.
Joens is optimistic about
Coxon repeating last year's
performance.
"He (Coxon) is our top returneet Joens said. "He is our
only returning conference
champion."
Joens hopes to fare better at
this seasons end than last, noting
that at last year,s NW AACC
tournament, the team did not fare
well, with the women's team
finishing in last place and the
men's team placing below the
top five.
The men's team looks strong
in almost every event, according
to Joens, but he also admits that
they do have a few weaknesses.
"We 're not a very good
jumping team," Joens said.
As for the women's team,
Joens believes that they will
finish strong in their open sprints,
open distances, discus and open
hurdles.
So far this season, Lane has
participated in two individual
meets, one with Clark College
and Southwestern Oregon
Community College and one
against Linn-Benton Community College and Blue Mountain
Community College.
The Titans placed second in
both meets.
In between the Lane Invitational and the Soutwest Region
Championships, the Titans will
take part in the Pepsi Challenge
in Monmouth on May 1, and
another tri-meet at Clackamas
Community College on May 8.

Student seeks silver screen
BY MICHAEL GOODWIN
staff writer

A faded photograph of a pretty Vietnamese woman and her young son taken
beside a floating restaurant on the Saigon
River represents one of the few good
memories Tam Tran, 27 has of Vietnam.
Amid the chaos, death and heartbreak
preceding the fall of Saigon in 1975, Tran,
his mother and sister escaped to freedom
and a new life in the United States.
Tran, now an LCC drama student, recently began to fulfill a life-long dream by
landing roles in the movie "Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles III'', filmed in Astoria
last summer. He played both an "Archer"
and a "Rebel."
As a young boy in Vietnam, Tran
watched the U.S. Armed Forces TV Network and became fascinated with acting. "I
used to watch westerns like 'The Big Valley' and 'Gunsmoke. I watched the 'Andy
Griffith Show' faithfully and I knew that
one day I would study acting and learn how
to act," he said.
It was not just the allure of freedom and
economic gain that brought the Tran Family here. They had to leave or face dire
consequences in their homeland.

TAM TRAN continued from page 9
Tran says he remembers the
sound of artillery, bombs and
incoming rockets near his house
in Saigon. "Sometimes the whole
house would shake, just like a
bed shaking. I was afraid something terrible was going to happen."
"The Viet Cong were active
in my neighborhood. One day, I
was walking near a place where
they dried beans out to make
tofu. A strange, really dark,
muscular Vietnamese man, with
a tatoo on his shoulder was there.
I had never seen him before. I
knew he was a Viet Cong. He
was so fierce looking and he

looked at me like he was going
to kill me. I was so frightened
that I ran all the way home.
Soon after that my mom
asked me ifl would like to go to
the United States to live," says
Tran.
After travelling to Guam to
meet their sponsor, the Tran
family settled in Springfield in
1976. As a young boy he admits
he had difficulties adjusting to
life in Oregon.
"At first I didn't like it here.
I felt out of place because, although I never personally was
discriminated against, I was
aware of prejudice against Viet-

namese.
The war had just ended.
There were a lot of people who
had friends or someone in their
family that had died, or been
hurt over there," he explained.
Unlike many Vietnamese
who settled in Southern California, in Springfield Tran was not
part of an extended ethnic community. He says that isolation
from other Vietnamese contributed to his desire to embrace the
American culture and way of
life.
"It's not that I don't like
Asians. The school I went to

mainly white. There were few
minorities, and I wanted to be
like everybody else," said Tran.
After graduating from high
school in 1984, Tran attended
LCC for two years and received
an associate degree in social science.
Since then he has worked as
a personal health and fitness
trainer. Tran says he believes in .
the direct connection between
mind and body consciousness.
"In the seventh grade I had a P .E.
teacher that got me started in
weight training. He was one of
my first role models.
He says that positive role
models are important for young
people: that young men need to
be able to identify with older
men they trust, after whom they
can model their lives - - not just
sports personalities and super
stars, but people in everyday life.
In the "Actor's Studio," _a
class for experienced actors
conducted by LCC instructor
Katherine Vandertuin, Tran displays boih talent and charisma.
Vandertuin says, "Tam is
one of the most enthusiastic students I've ever had. He has a

marvelous wit and desire to develop. He is wide open and to-·
tally focused at the same time.
"The movement of realism
in acting, which has been popularized by movies and TV, has
created the notion of 'personality actors,' who reduce all roles
down to who they are.
"The principle that I try to
teach is that the actor should
learn to become, theoretically,
any character you can imagine."
V andertuin stresses empathy, the
idea of actually feeling and
thinking as another person. "To
me that is the greater art, and it
transcends and transforms the
human condition," she added.
Tran says, that his goal in
the "Actor's Studio is to attain
the ability to leave my personality and to assume the personality of someone else, as an actor.
Not only is it challenging, it's
enjoyable.
As Tran is learning his craft
as an actor, he also hopes to get
more opportunities to work in
films. He said working in
"Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles
III" was a great learning experience.

Council unanimously endorsed
Robinson's concept of the new
mass transit system on August
17, 1992.
LCC president Jerry Moskus
is in agreement with Morrisette,
"We're a commuter college·.
Nobody lives here. All our students must travel, sometimes
considerable distances to attend
school. This proposal provides a
viable alternative to both the
commuting and parking problems at LCC and both the Board
of Education and I support it."
Although he says the trolley
system idea is not supported by
Eugene Mayor Ruth Bascom,
and Eugene City Manager Mike
Gleason. Robinson says that he

thinks the current political leaders in Eugene are not acting in
the public interest in this matter.
Bascom and Gleason were not
available for comment.
Robinson says,"We 're up
against the status quo. If this rail
system is going to happen, its
got to start from the grass roots.
If we do nothing, the alternative
transportation in the future will
be bicycles and busses.
"We need to come up with a
workable plan now that will encompass the practical and recreational needs of the future. Rail
travel, can be relaxing-in one
word - FUN, as well as economically viable to use and
maintain," he said.

Linfield College has
awarded the LCC Women's
Program a Certificate of Merit
in recognition of its 18 years of
continual support to women. The
Women's Program is noted for
encouraging women to continue
their education and becoming an
equal force in the work place
and in society as a whole.
"We are very happy to have
received the award," says Kate
Barry, Program coordinator.
"It's really nice to have an organization like Linfield come up
and say, 'you're appreciated."'
Barry says the recognition
will have its biggest effect on the
LCC Women's Program professionals. "To receive a certificate
like this isn't going to do a lot for
the college, but to have state
wide recognition for what we do
makes us feel we are continuing
to make a worthwhile contribution.
"Staff people feel that their
efforts have made a difference
in other people's lives. I think
that is what this award really
recognizes."

~,._1.1.

~~

Linfield has programs specifically set up so that people
who are working can still earn
their degrees, said Barry.
Many women who have attended LCC have gone on to
earn their degrees at Linfield,
Barry noted. "They may do their
first couple of years at LCC, but
then to earn their Bachelor's degree they may chose Linfield
over a school like the UO."
Barry says Linfield especially recognizes the work LCC
does for "re-entry" women,
women who are re-entering the
job market or who are seeking
more education in order to support themselves and their families in these changing times.
"That's part of the link between LCC and Linfield: They 're
really a college that caters to and
tailors its programs for the mature working adults. And we
serve a lot of re-entry women
who are going back to get their
education, so it's a natural connection," she says.
"This award is recognition
of our successes in the past. We
hope we'll continue and be even
more sucessful in the future,"

arship awards come from a
$5,000 stipend which former
ASLCC Pres. Bill Hollingsworth
donated to PTK.
Summer term a $300 first
prize and a $150 second prize
will be awarded. Next year $500
and $250 awards will be given
again. To be eligible for scholarships, students must be PTK
members, and be enrolled in a
minimum of 12 hours for the
term of the contest.
In addition to scholarships
given locally, members have a
chance to compete for national
