-Lane Community College - E LCC student wins space schol~rship BY DON REYNOLDS staff writer It's been a great year for Kristine Reynolds Sohnrey. First, she won an essay contest on "What Dr. Martin Luther King Jr. 's Dream of a Color Blind Society Means to Me," sponsored by the ASLCC in honor of Martin Luther King Jr. 's birthday in Feb. Then she won the essay contest on "My Light Kristine ReynoldsBulb Experience with Sohnrey Learning," sponsored by the English Department in conjunction with the Office of Institutional Advancement. Now she has won a National Aeronautical and Space Administration (NASA) scholarship to study Space Life Sciences at Florida's Kennedy Space Center. In the process, Sohnrey, a pre-med student at LCC, will earn nine credits from Florida A&M University during the June l -Aug.19summersession. NASAwillpaySohnrey's tuition, books, travel expenses, lodging and food, says LCC math instructor Alice Kaseberg, who wrote a letter of recommendation for her. "I've had a dream since I was a little kid of going into space," says Sohnrey. When she saw the NASA application on a Science Deptartment bulletin board, she wrote for details. Sohnrey says she entered transcripts, three letters of recommendation, and a 500 word essay. NASA awarded scholarships to 40 out of the 3500 who applied. Students will work in teams on projects while attending a series of lectures and classes, says Sohnrey. "It will be a wonderful opportunity to learn things, not only about the space program," but about group learning, think tank-style, she says. "A synergy .. .is created when people work in that situation." Sohnrey has the ability to synthesize information, says Kase berg. "The notes she took in class were more organized than the notes I taught from." Volume 28, Issue 25 Eugene, Oregon May 14, 1993 Dental clinic provides low cost care BY DON REYNOLDS staff writer Student hygienists at the LCC Dental Clinic provide quality dental care at low cost, according to the dental program coordinator and students. The program offers evaluations and gum disease therapy for $17 -$22 that would normally cost $400 - $700 if done in a dentist's office, says dental hygiene student Alissa Shelley. For the last two years Whi leaker Elementary School Nurse Maxine Proskurowski and Lane's dental clinic have teamed up to provide free examinations and preventive care to Whiteaker Elementary School Stu dents, Proskurowski says. LCC Dental Hygiene Coordinator Sharon Hagan and Proskurowski spearhead a project that has given the children over $10,000 worth of free care this year alone, says Hagan. "Whiteaker is considered to be the most disadvantaged school in the state, according to the Oregon State Board of Education," Proskurowski says, pointing out that over 100 students in the school are homeless. Proskurowski says that the dental clinic has treated all but 30 of Whiteaker's 210 students this year.

Native Americans' view Oregon Trail Mannequin is lifesaver BY MICHAEL GOODWIN staff writer The impact of the European migration into America's West is not portrayed truthfully. Todo so would discredit the image of the "noble pioneer," said Native American attorney, Rick Acevedo. As a result, writers of popular literature, TV, and radio fare portray Native Americans stereotypically. He said, 'The true picture of Indian history is not taught. Instead, Indians are portrayed as thieves, liars, rapists, murderers, and above all drunkards, constantly at war with whites as well as each other." Acevedo made his remarks during the fourth session of The Oregon Trail Commemorative activities. It included dancing, music and food, followed by a serious panel discussion about the government's strategy to occupy western lands, treaties, policies and the general impact of the westward European migration on native populations. The event was sponsored by the ASLCC. LCC Native American Student Association Counselor Frank Merrill from the Karok Tribe in Northern California led Turn to TREATIES page 3 Christopher Graves, where are you? BY LARRY HAFfL associate editor As one of his last official acts, ASLCC VicePresidentD.J. Holbrook announced that one of the senators elected last week did not have a 2.75 cumulative GPA requirement and could not be seated. The ASLCC By-Laws currently require senate mem- hers to maintain a minimum cumulative GPA of 2.75 or more. After several of the runners up in the senate race were disqualified for the same reason, the seat was awarded to Christopher Graves. Holbrook made the announcement at the beginning of the last 1992-93 Senate meet- ing, May 11. The only business item on the outgoing senate's agenda was a funding proposal for athletic programs, but because there was no quorum present, the senate could take no action.

Bill Porter, the director of the Florence campus says, "This full size mannequin is a state-of-the-art piece of equipment. We have even gotten a request from the local hospital to have their nurses be trained with the mannequin." Porter says, the students put the life-size mannequin to immediate use in the classroom after it was delivered, helping to teach nurses CPR, wrapping cuts and lacerations, inserting catheters and IV's, and giving enemas. Funding for the mannequin came from several sources. A large part of the $3,000 purchase price came from the LCC general fund, and the health services account. The Florence campus also received two community grants: A $200 grant from the Siuslaw Rural Health Center, and a $500 grant from the Western Lane County Foundation. Both agencies advertised in the Siusla News that the grants were available for funding opportunities for community services and advancement. "One of the major reasons LCC got the grants is the large need for health service personnel and another reason is LCC health care graduates have almost a 100 percent job placement rate," Porter Said.

At its May 12meeting, the Board of Education voted4-2 to spend the expected $900,000 in federal funds in addition to $300,000 from the LCC Foundation and $600,000 from the Capital Projects fund. The board did not approve any further expansion. Board members Chuck Ivey and Larry Mann voted against the motion. Mann stated that the number of students who would benefit from the expenditure is too small. Ivey contended that he didn't have enough information prior to voting on the proposal. The board also approved the results of the ASLCC elections 5-1. Mann stated that the OSPIRG ballot measure was worded unfairly, so he didn ' t feel comfortable approving the election results. In other business, the board discussed several proposals submitted by the Investment Opportunities Committee. • A Fitness Educational Center with a cost of $75,000. • A brand name fast food restaurant with a cost of $60,000. • An exchange program with the former Soviet Republic of Georgia at a cost of $17,000. The committee suggested that each of these proposals would generate revenue for the college. The fitness center would enhance the Health and PE Department. The fast food outlet would provide additional food choices and an opportunity for student employment. The Georgia exchange would enhance the international student exchange program.

TREATIES continued from page 1 the discussion with two guest speakers, Acevedo from Salish-Kootenai Tribe of northwestern Montana, and Bob Tom of the Siletz Tribe in Lincoln County. "Treaties aren't an Indian thmg," said Acevedo. They are a U.S. government thing. By constitutional law they can only be struck with a foreign country. "Treaties recognize that the Indian communities are separate distinct nations within the United States. That has not changed. We are recognized as foreign countries which gives Indians a distinct dual-citizenship/' said Acevedo. He said the U.S. government has never questioned the governing power of the separate Native American nations. "The Indians have always lived in highly structured societies literally having the power of life and death over tribal members." But he added, "When Indians are off reservations, they are subject to the laws of the U.S. One of the problems with the treaties of the nineteenth century, said Acevedo is "they really represent an exchange of a large piece of land for a much smaller piece of land." He said these exchanges were made under duress because the individual chiefs who signed the treaties were responsible for the survival of their tribes. "Whether or not these native populations lived or died was a direct result of their interaction with whites. Approximately 3.5 million Native Americans died, mostly from disease, during the European migration," said Acevedo. He said most minorities in this country want to be included in the mainstream, but Native Americans "want to be excluded, trying to maintain who we are by being left alone. The federal government never intended to leave us alone. They were intent on assimilation, by breaking-up Indian land and fragmentation of the Indian tribes ." Tickets on sale now at $2 each.

Siporin had two choices: he could return to bed or he could grab his tape recorder and ~over the fire as a news story~ He went back inside and emerged moments later with his tape recorder. "I didn't get paid for this story." says Siporin, a talk-radio host at KLCC. "What I got for doing it was this-" he motions to a walnut and bronze plaque on his desk, the Associated Press in Oregon award for "Best Spot News Story, 1992." An electric force at KLCC for 11 years, Siporin has won over 35 awards. Critical Mass, his current call-in show which airs Sundays at noon, is billed as "a call-in with a conscience." A long-time political activist who makes no secret of his opinions, he has matured into a seasoned journalist and news analyst exploring issues in depth and airing views that don't get heard elsewhere. "What initially 'activated' me was the media," says Siporin. Seeing peaceful black demonstrators attacked by "vicious, brutish white police officers with dogs" on television in the mid '50s fueled his passion for justice, he reflects. In the late '60s he says he alternately spurned political ac- LCC has been selected by the state Employment Division to be a testing sight for the newly installed touch-screen kiosk job search computer. The school's new kiosk, located in the cafeteria, was installed in the early part of April. "Because of the computer, people can look for jobs anywhere in the state," says Joan Adams of the LCC Job Placement Office. "When the kiosk menu comes up and you press jobs, the map of the state comes up with all the cities." A printout gives general information about jobs and the required qualifications for each position. "If it's a job that you can contact the employer directly, or if you have to go to the State Employment Office to get the information, the job computer will tell you," says Adams.

Then in 1970, several activist friends were arrested the day the National Guard gunned down student protestors at Ohio's Kent State University. Siporin was thrust into a leadership position, organizing a student takeover of the Military Naval Science Building, holding it until a school-wide vote could be held on whether to close the university to protest the invasion of Cambodia. Siporin says the experience taught him the power of political action to affect the media; the Omaha World Herald-the state's largest paper-misquoted him, then made concessions for further interviews when he refused to talk to its reporters. turn to SIPORIN page 8 I as a way to economize, since the state budget has been cut due to ballot measure five. The installment of the kiosk will make job information more easily accessible to the public. It will be easier for state Employment Division to get the information out to the public, rather than having people come in to the office, said Adams. Adams played a small role in getting the kiosk installed. "The initial contact was Linda Fossen, the Vice President for Student Services, and she was really very excited about the project." Adams says the Job Placement staff was really excited about the project. She explained that the state chose the cafeteria because they wanted it in a centralized, high traffic area.

The top options, as prioritized by Yriarte are to: •Provide free admission to all Lane's 1993-94 home basketball games for all students and their immediate families.

Americans have a hard time addressing such issues perhaps because the more we talk about them, the uglier they become, and the uglier they become, the less we want to talk about them. Three LCC playwrights and a host of supporting crew members however, are taking these issues in hand and presenting them on stage. Playwrights Devan C. Wilson, Aaron M. Cohen, and Rachel Indigo Cerise's ideas will come to life inside Lane's Bluedoor Theatre on May 21, 22, 28 and 29 as this year's "An Evening of New Plays." While all plays differ in plot and theme, they all display versatile ways of addressing issues through comedy, abstraction, and realism. Wilson's "Dance With the Devil," which is directed by Todd M.

One night Norman begins to question his very existence after the stranger points it out to him. dence.

The Intramural Department is currently holding its annual spring tennis tournament, which is a two-week event. A strange feature to the format of the competition is the two opponents, who scheduled to play, need to set their own match time instead of dealing with a pre-set scheduled time. Then the winner must report the result of their match to the Intramural Office by a certain time. The final results of the tennis playoffs will appear in the May 21 issue of The Torch.

Having been programmed to carry out destructive behavior during their childhood, they use sex and laughter to survive together. A good combination for them perhaps, but their past experiences constantly intervene. "I have noticed survivors of satanic cult atrocities and war veterans (who have also experienced severe past traumas) share a correlation where they experience different situations, but in the same destructive atmosphere. I don't think it's as widely recognized in those effects though because people don't hear about this sort of abuse," says Cerise. The authors of the plays are not the only LCC students working on" An Evening of New Plays." In fact, the entire production is exclusively delivered by students. From advertising to set design, authorship to acting, students coordinate everything, with the program's instructors serving as advisors. "A lot of people forget that in theatre, everyone counts, especially when the actors go out and gather the applause. If anyone was taken out of the production, it wouldn't be the same," says Daniel Christensen, producer and technical director for the performances. Tickets for "An Evening of New Plays" are $4 and may be 7 purchased at the Lane Box Office (726-2202), Market Place Books, or any Hult Center outlet. Due to the nature and subject content of the plays, the performances can be viewed by mature audiences only. FREE LUNCH! Thursdays at noon, Industrial Tech 218. Bible Study, 1:001:50.

The show was successful; ratings were high and there was a clear demand for more call-in. While at Blue Plate, Siporin produced freelance pieces for the New York Times and National Public Radio. In 1989 Siporin started Livewire, a call-in show that aired three nights each week. Livewire took on the timber controversy, Ballot Measure Nine, elections, environmental issues and · other topics that generated a great deal of heat. While he brought together opposing sides of many controversies, Siporin recalls only one issue that seemed to polarize both sides beyond hope. The issue: should dogs be allowed to run free in Wayne Morse Park. "Those people really hate each other," he says shaking his head with amazement. Although he values fairness and accuracy, Siporin makes no pretence of being an objective, balanced reporter. "It's ludicrous to suggest that you've done enough research on a question to know how to ask intelligent questions," but haven't formed an opinion, Siporin asserts. "The key is to be fair and accurate," he says, "more than anything, to be accurate." He goes to great lengths for accuracy,hesays. During a 1985 trip he interviewed over 100 Nicaraguans, "Only two of them supported the Contras; the rest supported the Nicaraguan Gov ernment or the Sandinistas." Instead of ignoring the two Contra supporters, he aired their views along with seven or eight of the others-but he explained the ra- tio in his comments. Siporin made front-page news during the 1990 gubernatorial primary, when then AtDave General torney Frohnmeyer's campaign staff said Siporin wasn't balanced and Frohnmeyer barred Siporin from serving as a debate panelist. As a result, Siporin contends, Frohnmeyer hurt his campaign by sending a message that he was a afraid of him. Register-Guard columnist Don Bishoff agrees. "I thought it was a tactical mistake by the Frohnmeyer campaign to exclude him. What it implied was a weakness in Dave Frohnmeyer that I don ' t think is there. Dave is a sharp enough guy to handle anything Alan or I could throw at him." The controversy attracted listeners to KLCC, says Siporin, running a hand through his greying hair. "I know that a lot of people who never heard of me saw that Register Guard story and said 'this guy scared Frohnmeyer; I'll have to check him out' and became regular listeners." Siporin 's reputation extends across the political spectrum. "He asks fair open-ended questions and doesn't try to lead listeners. I respect him for that, " says Oregon Citizens Alliance Lane County Director Larry All wander. Preparing three evening callin shows weekly, reporting for NPR and doing freelance work became a burden for Siporin, who works part-time at KLCC. "Call-in was more draining and the evening hours meant that I was ... wired late at night." he explains. Siporin cut back call-in shows to the current one hour each Sunday. "We were trying to figure ·out how to get my presence in other places" at KLCC, he says,"doing reporting, interviewing, and there was some talk about my doing commentary." His first commentary, which aired last fall, analyzed the confusion of pedophilia with homosexuality in the case of an HIV positive Roseburg man charged with molesting children. Listener response was favorable, says KLCC news director Tripp Sommer. "We got positive feedback for days." Siporin's commentaries air Thursday afternoons on The Northwest Passage and are repeated Friday morinings on NPR's Morning Edition . He conducts weekly interviews for KLCC and reports for NPR. TWO DANCE cont. from page 5 movement vocabulary of their own. Seereiter says they have been able to integrate harmoniously, and that they complement, support and motivate each other to new levels of express ion. Two Dance will perform new works and a commissioned piece by Eugene based choreographer/dancer Margo Van Ummersen, who is also a Lane Dance faculty member. Included in the evening's entertainment will be a piece called "The Howl," a unique collaboration of dance and a 7 and a half foot sculpture by Tim Outman of the Art department. The inspiration came to Seereiter and Outman a year ago and together they came up with the idea of expressing movement into a unified medium of dance and sculpture. "The Howl" also features music by Heather Perkins and costume by Ronnie Simone. The lighting is designed by Jim McCarty and technical wizardry for Interludes is the work by Skip Hubbard.
