Community
colleges face
triple threat
funding cuts
BY ANGELO VERNA
staff writer

Already faced with Governor
Robert's proposal to cut $25 million in
state-wide community college funding,
the House of Representatives now seeks
to reduce the amount by an additional
$15 million.
LCC is expected to lose $1.7 million
dollars in funding for the '93-95 biennium and with the House proposal, the
amount may exceed $3.7 million, says
College President Jerry Moskus.
A third, and worst case scenario,
would be losing an additional $2.2 million in additional funding from the Oregon Lottery Association, bringing the
total to more than $5.9 million in cuts
over the next two years, a move that
appears unlikely, but possible, says
Moskus.
The unexpected move by the House
leaves LCC wondering what its next
move will be if two, or all three measures
pass. Anticipating passage of Robert's
initiative, LCC trimmed $1. 7 million
from next year's budget. If the House
proposal or lottery funding disappears,
LCC will make those cuts in the '94-95
school year, says Moskus.
"If both the House and Governor's
proposal pass, we would face additional
cuts totaling $2.7 million in the year
after next, a budget deficit that would
have to be made up somewhere," Moskus
continued.
Last December, LCC's Executive
Cabinet announced $1.1 million 'in proposed budget cuts. Coupled with the
recent decision to increase the general
fees by $2, LCC managed to make up the
$1.7 million anticipated shortfall.
Moskus says the process for deciding the budget cuts to be made in the "9495 school year will begin after definite
decisions on the proposals from the state
government. No decisions about what
programs or positions to cut have been
made, he said.
When asked if, rather than cut programs, staff, administration or Moskus
himself would be willing to take a pay
cut first, he replied, "We haven't ruled
that out, but I don't think that would be
our major focus." "We 're going to have
to look at programs, services and everything we have to offer here," he said.
"The difficult thing is we've already
done that. There's nothing left that any
of us want to see reduced any further."
Asked about the long-range future
of LCC, Moskus replied, "We 're going
to have to go through some changes and
what we have to do, as a college, is
rethink what we 're doing and try to
continue to provide good service and
high quality education with what we
have."

On to Linn-Benton
LCC President Jerry Moskus summed up the "Roads to Opportunity" celebrations when he said,
"150 years ago the Oregon Trail was a road to opportuntiy for people seking a better f~rture. Oreg~n
today is still a land of opportunity but you need an e~uc,?tion to benefit from that opportunity• Community
colleges have become the new roads to opportunity.
ASLCC President John Mitchell carried the "Roads t~ opportunity" flag to Linn-Benton CC aboard
an LCC Flight Tech program helicopter.

Board of Education votes 5-1
to raise tuition $2 per credit
â– 

Board approves only one of the three
ballot measures proposed by the ASLCC
Senate. During May elections, students will
vote on a proposal to raise fees $6 to fund
primary care for Student Health Services.
BY SONJA TAYLOR
editor

LCC will raise tuition$2
per credit beginning Summer
Term 1993.
The Board of Education
voted5-l to raise tuition at its
April 19 meeting. Board
member Larry Mann voted
against the motion, saying he
felt a $3 raise was in order in
light of the legislature's proposed additional $15 million
cut in community college
funding.

Boatd member Peter
Sorenson reminded the board
that state budget cuts are only
proposals at present. After further discussion the board decided to stay with a $2 raise,
although it may revisit the issue
in the future.
Rep. Cynthia Wooten, DEugene, a guest at the meeting,
said the proposed $15 million
cut is part of a "coffee bill"(a bill
that is put together behind closed
doors). Wooten said that the
legislature might pass the bill

and urged students to actively
present their opposing postilions
to the legislature. "Students need
to get more involved at Salem.
They need to present a more
interactive and dynamic view,"
she said.
"If Oregon gets to 1995
without significant tax reform,
the state is going to hemorrage,"
Wooten continued

Student ballot measures
The board examined four
but approved only one of the
ballot measures authorized by
the ASLCC Senate for the May
student body elections. The
board voted to approve Ballot
Measure 1, which asks students
if they will allow a$6 increase in
studentfees to fund primary care
for the Student Health Service.
The question of students fund-

ing primary care came about
after the board voted to eliminate such care from the general
fund·at its Feb. 10 meeting.
However, the board did not
approve the other three measures. Those measures proposed
to ask students if they would like
to:
• Reduce the current fee
allocated to the ASLCC
Childcare Co-op from $5 to $3.
• Reduce the mandatory
student fee allocated to the
ASLCC discretionary budget
from $5 to $3.
• Make the $2 per term
mandatory student fee for OSPIRG optional.
These measure were not

Letters to the Editor
ASLCC President
encourages student
involvement
To the Editor,
In my opinion, the actions of the
senate members who don't meet their
own by-law requirements, is not a very
good way for the student government
to show the student body they are
accountable. The student government is
elected to be a governing body. When
they don't abide by their own laws,
who are they representing? What are
they representing?
I guess that these senate members
think that the by-laws are good for the
students but that doesn't mean that they
have to answer them because their in
government and that gives them a visa.
If the new government has to
accept these as their laws until they can
fix them, why does this senate think
that they don't have to fix them? When
these laws were ratified, they were to
become effective now that day. So, that
means, since the officers are unable to
access the GPA's, how long were these
senators not complying to the laws that
. they said are the rules to govern the
government?
These so called laws are in effect
for the new campaigners, in which, a
lot had to withdraw from the race
because of not meeting the GPA
requirements that these senate members
don't meet. I don't understand why the
student body is letting this happen.
I'm saying this as a student, I think
that if the senate is not going to uphold
the laws, that they should lift the law
from the election. What do you think?
Tell them!
John Mitchell
ASLCC President

To the Editor,
As Vice-President of ASLCC, I
would like to express my disappointment at the latest actions of some of the
Senate. In particular, those four
members who are blatantly violating
the very by-laws they helped put into
effect! Holding other students to these
rules, but not yourselves?? NOT!!
Double Standards? YES! Hypocrisy?
YES! I have come to doubt the ethical
and moral fiber of these individuals and
·the stall tactics of the majority of the
Senate in not even addressing this
issue! I am finding it very difficult to
take grievances (this is my job!) from
students and not being able to convince
the senate that there is a concern from
the student body. I am very interested
in seeing the future conduct of these
individuals, and so will the student
body.
Well, now that I've vented, I would
like to wish the student body good
grades and easy teachers, and rest
assured that I am here to listen to your
concerns.
DJ. Holbrook
Vice President, ASLCC

Student Government
Elitist
To the Editor,
Student government should not

have the option of disregarding the bylaws which are supposed to govern
them. Unfortunately the student body
government here at LCC fails to
recognize this. They give every indication of believing that they are an elitist
group who not only writes their own
rules, but has the option of disregarding
the rules at will. There are four senate
members who do not have the minimum required GPA to be part of
student government. One of these
senators has missed well over half of
the meetings siQce the early part of
winter term.
At the last senate meeting they
were supposed to go into executive
session to address these issues, but
because of maneuvering on the part of
senate-members, they were unable to
do so. When informed of the situation,
one cabinet member's response was,
"Who cares?" The student body cares.
The senate does not have the right to
hold prospective senate members to a
standard that they themselves do not
feel accountable to.
The student body government as it
is nothing but an elitist, hypocritical,
fraudulent organization. If they cannot
abide _by the by-laws , they should
resign, and if they won't, this student
government should be dissolved for
incompetence and fraud. The student
body here at LCC deserves much better
than what they are getting. If this
government doesn't feel accountable to
the student body, they should not be
allowed to soak the student body for
money every term.

Disillusioned with
Board of Education
To the Editor,
As a Student Senator at Lane
Community College, I am profoundly
disillusioned with the LCC Board of
Education.
Several weeks ago, the Student
Government responded to the Board's
recommendation to cut the Student
Health Service (SHS) by introducing a
trio of referendums that would have
given the students the opportunity to
fund the SHS by the reallocation of
current student fees. The ensuing
volley of protests from campus special
interest groups resulted in the stressinduced forced resignation of the
Student Government President and the
withdrawal of the referendums.
In another attempt to rescue the illfated SHS, the Student Government
crafted a new series of referendums
that would retain the SHS but also
offered the possibility of keeping the
student fees at a static level by the
reduction offees devoted to other
programs.
This package was submitted to the
Board for approval in accordance with
procedure. The Board is responsible to
ensure that no college or student
government procedures were violated
during the referendum process. The
Board determined that no violations
had occurred. But they didn't stop
there. Each board member probed the
content of each measure, rejecting
those that were in conflict with their
personal ideologies. Only Larry Mann
and Roger Hall seem to have an
understanding of the Board's role in

April 23, 1993
such matters. The students' right to
vote was effectively revoked on three
of the four measures presented. The
one exception was the measure that
would increase student fees to save the
SHS. The message: Students may
choose to saddle themselves with
additional fees but may not reduce or
eliminate .fees imposed by previous
student bodys.
My message to the Board: Learn
you responsibilities. Don't micromanage. LCC students are adults
capable of making intelligent decisions
for themselves. Allowing the addition
of new student fees while forbidding
the reduction of current fees will only
make LCC education less affordable.

Four Senate memb-ers
no longer qualified
BY LARRY HAFfL
associate editor

The ASLCC Senate has decided to delay responding to
allegations that four Senate members are no longer academically qualified to hold office.
The Senate delayed taking action at its April 20 meeting
despite strong urging by ASLCC Vice President D.J. Holbrook
that the Senate address the matter immediately.
At the April 13 Senate meeting, The Torch notified the
Senate of allegations that four members of the Senate no
longer have a cumulative GPA of 2.75 or better, as required
bytherecentlyamendedASLCCBy-laws.ASLCCPresident
John Mitchell then stated_that the Senate Judiciary Committee
would investigate and the Senate would resolve the issue in
an executive session on April 20.
Following the April 13 meeting, Student Activities Director Barbara Delansky confirmed to The Torch that four of
the current Senate members do indeed have cumulative
GPAs below 2.75. Delansky was unable to release their
names at that time because it was unclear if college policy
gave her authority to do so.
Mitchell and Holbrook urged the Senate to conduct the
executive session before the regular open meeting, but the
Senate chose to schedule it afterwards. Senate meetings
normally take about two hours, but after three hours, the
Senate adjourned even though it hadn't ·addressed several
agenda items, including the executive session.
Other business conducted
During officer reports, Holbrook informed the Senate
that the LCC Board of Education had.only approved one of
the four Senate proposed ballot measures for inclusion on the
up-coming student government election ballot. The measure
proposing a $6 increase in student fees to fund the Student
Health Service was approved. The Board rejected measures
related to Child Care Co-op, student government discretionary and partial OSPIRG funding.
The Senate approved the following funding requests:
•Denali Finale celebration; $730
•Lane Jazz Ensemble trip; $605
•Latino Club Fiesta support; $250
•Legal Student Club expenses; $112
•Additional subsidy for students with children in the
Early Childhood Education program; $3100
Funding requests for construction of volleyball sand
courts, expense unknown, and purchase of a FAX machine
for student use, $2195, were tabled for one week.

Intramural deadlines coming
BY FLINT DUTELL
staff writer

Do you ever feel tired and
run down? Are you feeling like
you are a little too sedimentary
or would you like to meet some
interesting people? Well, LCC
has a way that you can get out
and get a little physical activity
in your life for a very minimal
charge.
This is an opportunity for
you to get involved in a wide
variety of sports or activities is
LCC intramurals.
From basketball to golf,
volleyball to bowling, including
dancing, tennis, nin/walk, badminton and weight lifting, Lane
intramurals has opportunities
for you to compete against yourself or somebody at your own
skill level.
Intramural Director Gary
Knapp is the person responsible
for putting together this vast
repertoire of activities for students to break out of their eat,
sleep, and study groove and have
some fun during the week.
"Probably, the biggest improvement over the past couple
of terms is the addition of the
exercise room down in IO 1"
commented Knapp. "We have
not had access before now to the
stair steppers and rowing machines. It has been a popular
addition."
To
participate
in
intramurals, students must purchase an intramural sticker from
the intramural office located in
office 204 in the PE building.
Stickers cost $3 a tenn or $5 a
year. Non-students can also
participate in LCC intramurals
for $25 a tenn.
The most popular activity
for people taking advantage of
intramural recreational activities
has been the use of the weight
room. Each tenn 1,200 to 1,300

people use the weight room.
Students with intramural stickers can use the weight room
Monday through Friday at4 p.m.

Studio aides from art department display talent
BY LUKE STRAHOTA
arts & entertainment editor

Three Art Department studio aides who work as teaching
assistants will gain recognition
for their own talents this month.
On April 26 through May
14, these assistants will present
their personal works in an exhibit at the LCC Art Department
Gallery.
GARY STANFIELD
sculpture
"My purpose for doing
sculpture is totally selfish - - no
statement, no philosophy, pure
hedonistic pleasure," is part of
Stanfield's description for the
exhibit. A studio artist for many
years, Stanfield explains that
even though he's in the business
of selling art, he's always done
art for himself. When commissioned to create specific pieces,
he says he feels like he's "only a
technician," producing something for someone which must
meet their standards. When he
does the work for himself, he
doesn't care what people think
about it.
"If people think enough to
buy it, that's fine. If not, that's
okay. I have a whole house full
of stuff that doesn't sell that I
like," says Stanfield.
Even though his part of the
show will contain a total of 11
pieces, it represents a small part
of his art, says Stanfield. Many
of the works featured are figurative, fabricated out of a mixed
media - - glass, bronze, paint,
and steel. His other art consists
of representational pieces, primarily horses, because of the
notoriety he has received in the
Southern states with his horse
figures.

Wilson will display not only
his ceramic pots, vases, and
figurative works, but some of
his water color and oil paintings
as well.
Many of Wilson's pieces in
this show are overtoned by water themes. Ceramic frogs, fish
and turtles with lifelike colors
and textures compliment his
water color and oil paintings of
water lilies and other water
scenes.

decided to join the Dislocated
Workers Program at Lane. After finishing the program, he
earned his studio assistant job.
"Ifeel very fortunate to be in
the position I am. When I was
laid off, I opted to take an early
retirement. With that and a few
investments, my wife and I live
as comfortably as you can nowa-days. I'm happy that I could

people was very devastating and
put myself in a position where I
could take full advantage of what

art," says Wilson.

A reception for the artists will be

Counseling hiring recruits
BY GARY HANIUK
staff writer
The Counseling Department
is looking for students to train
service associates for next fall.
The Counseling Department
each year hires 20 students to
work for counseling," says
Poole." They supply direct services to other students."
The students will work at
the Career Information Center,
supplying students with information, or they may work in
Study Skills where they help
students imprqve on their reading and writing. "Sometimes we
have students working at LCC
downtown," says Poole.
"Actually we have them
working for us all the time,"
says Poole," simply by people
knowing who they are, our associates can get the student to the
referrals they need."
Every year in April, Poole is
looking for new recruits for the
next year. "I hire in May and we

train, at the end of finals week in
June," says Poole. "We do a
retreat at the coast at Heceta
House, which is pretty wonderful."
•
"In early September we do
some more training, giving the
Associates the skills that they'll
need to know to do the job," say
Poole. "And the month of September is a heavy work time for
the associates; just like it is for
the counselors, because we 're
getting things going around
. here."
"I look for students who
enjoy working with people, and
who like to be helpful," says
Poole. "Also people who like to
work as members of a team, because it's very much a team.
They coordinate and work together real well."
Poole says the training continues though the year and they
meet once a week throughout
the whole year. The Associates
do various kinds ofjobs that will

make the whole experience
worth it.
"It's a paid position," says
Poole. "We hire in two ways. I
have enough money- that's col- •
lege money, to hire half as many
people as I need, so I can hire
half of them on hard money
(that's school money), the other
half comes from Work Study."
Poole says she usually gets
about 40 to 50 applications, and
ends up hiring up to many as 20
Associates. Some are carry overs
from the previous year.
"The deadline for the applications to be in is May 3. The
applications can be picked up
either at the Counseling Information center, at Julia Poole's
office located on the fourth floor,
Room450B.

classes next fall.

response from so many people
on so many levels to this class
that I'm floored. The Administration, sttl'dent body, even
people in the community are
excited that LCC is offering a
class in the music of Africa, Asia
and Native America.
''Taking time to understand
and appreciate a musical tradition we normally don't hear on
the radio or in concerts speaks to
a respect for another people. It
says 'I like your music and your
traditions so I think I can accept
you on a more fundamental level
now.'
"I believe in the long run we
build a lot more bridges between
people the more classes like this

one we have. It's time for society at large to acknowledge that
every culture has a valid musical
system, often more than one, and
that to appreciate this is to become more of a whole person."·
The day The Torch visited
the class over half of the students stayed after class to continue drumming. Addison's
ability to give students personal
experience with, as well as an
understanding of, other cultures'
music might explain this.

Oregon Trail Commemoration

staff writer

LCC kicked off its Oregon
Trail Commemoration last Friday, April 16, with a slide presentation about life on the trail, a
covered wagon memorabilia exhibit, folk dancing, and an outdoor cookout featuring buffalo
burgers.
A mixed crowd of about 120,
including a large contingent of
senior citizens, a few, mostly
older students, faculty and a
handful of children listened and
watched the fascinating and humorous lecture delivered by LCC
instructors, and Oregon Trail experts Milt Madden and Ryan
Anderson.
Madden says that economic
unrest caused by the "Panic of
'38" combined with rampant
disease in the Mississippi Valley, and the existence of thousands of "debt dodgers," created
ideal conditions for the mass migration to the west. Oregon was
not officially part of the U.S. at
the time the trail opened.
But gradually, as the trail
became safer and well-defined,
the trickle of emigrants turned
into an unstoppable flood, as bet ween 250-350,000 people
moved westward, said Madden.
The cost in human life was
significant. Disease (mostly
cholera), and the hardships of
the trail caused as many as 20,000
deaths among pioneers traveling
the Oregon Trail. "It averaged
out to about 20 people per mile.
There are places in Nebraska with
grave markers every hundred feet
or so," he said.
Madden says the typical
journey involved a family with
one or more wagons and their
worldly possessions. People
