While it had not yet

smd, adding that she still

Wh1le the restructuring
of her position is one of the
reasons O'Hara left, some
people feel she was not
properly informed about
what the changes were
going to be. ........ontrovers
According to ASLC
President Patti Brooke,
O'Hara found out about the
possible structural changes
from Brooke and not the ad­
ministration . Brooke said
she found out about the
changes from Mattfcld and
walked up to O'Hara's
office upset about the fact
that O'Hara was bemg
forced to compete for her
pb.
O'Hara apparently had
no prior knowledge of the
new pos1tion of Vice
Prcstdent of Student had not madvertantly told
her about the changes
Mattfeld disagrees that
Brooke knew about the
changes before O'Hara and
said that she talked with
Brooke "In order to correct a
misunderstanding Brooke
had about the possible new
position.'' Mattfeld said
O'Hara was not "competing
for her JOb" and would
already have known about
the proposed new
institutional position
because O'Hara had
worked with the PRC and
October 1, 1987
Affairs and was not
mformed by the President
and the Provost until a
later date.
Associate Dean CJ(
Students Denise Thompson was aware of the
restructuring efforts.
O'Hara sa1d simply
that, 'The information was
communicated to me from
two separate channels-the
Provost and Patti Brooke."
Fon11er Dam of Studetll:-:, Meg O'Ham
said, "Patti Brooke was
1nformed as to the posstble
restructunng of Student
Affairs before Meg was
informed of the possible
restructuring of Student
Affairs, as far as l know."
"The fact that an issue
regarding personnel matters
was discussed with me
prior to the person who was
to be affected, shows to me
uneth1cal practices on the
part of the current
administration," Brooke
said.
According to senior Dcnb
Arnold, 1t is unclear when
Mattfeld would have
informed O'Hara if Brooke Another claim made by
Arnold is that O'Hara left
because others in the
administratton had
expected O'Hara to be
responsible tor the actions
of the students. ''As 1
understand it, Meg was
expected to maintain
control over the studc•~'
body and she did not
consider this consistent
with her job description, "
he ..aid.
O'Hara refuted this
drum, saying, "The JOb of
the Dean of Students is
alw.lys to sit between the
students, the faculty, and the other administrators.
When lt comes to mediating
and advocating issues such
as the student wishes for
divestment in South Africa ,
it becomes mevitable as
part of the job of Dean of
Students''
Regardless of the
-reasons for O'Hara's
departure, the timing of
her leaving one week before
school was to start has left
many students confused and
worrioo about who they can
report to and who is
working in their behalf.
Vol. 52, No.2
"1 am very confuS\.~ as to
who I am supposed to
communicate with and who
is supposed to communicate
with me," Brooke said.
'This is a big loss to the
student body not to have
someone here who is
working for the students.''
"1 feel this is a real
personal as well as pro­
fessional loss," Brooke
added.
Gardner commented on
the timing by saying "I was
obviously supriscd and
disappointed by the timing
and the short notice but we
are trying to make ad­
justments for that in way<t
that arc scn~itive b\>th to
the needs ot the students
and the major issues we
have before us in student
affairs, and to Meg, who is

O'Hara satd she left

was a personal deca::.ion
that she did not want to
open up to community

that 1t was a wry dil Hcult
decision, and that the
YWCA had wanted her to
start even earlier then she
did.
As it stands now,
Mallfeld is orgamzing a

arc no longer candidate s.
Thompson withdrew her
name from consideration for
personal reasons while
Schneider was considered but \\'aS not appoinll.'<i, in

Mattfcld said, "I hope this

This is really too bad for
the college."
Yet besides bcmg sorry to

"The vary1ng inter­

A change in Residence

Vandalism Plagues Campus
By Julie Anne Carter
Ptoneer Log Staff Wnter
Since the be&lnning of
(~\II term there have been a
large number of thefts and
vandalism on campus.
Some recent occurrences
mcludc n radio taken from
a room, scats removed from
bakes parked tn a Copeland
laundry room, a student's
scooter moved and
vandalized, two fire
alarms and three
extinguishers set off,
phones puJJed out of the
wall and stolen, furniture
taken from dorm lounges,
wallets and purses stolen
£rom the library and car
vandalism.
Why are we so plagued?
In the case of the stolen
radto, the person
apprehended was not an LC
student and non-students
arc a bigger problem than
most would realize.
As Sanna Sorensen, RO
of Platt-Howard / Akin,
1 said, "We are particularly
vulnerable now because
most people won't know who's an outsider." She
also said "Although we
tend to feel secure with
each other in the dorms, it
is important to remember
the dorms arc f.:urly
excesstble to outsiders "
They can also strike
anywhere, as Brinda
Cooper tn the Security
Office explamed that
there have been "a rash of
thcftc; m the library." ln
response to working to ~lve
the problem of cnme.
Cooper stressed
"Communica tton 1s
important Call Secunty tf
you see anythang
susptctous." It is a good
idea to cooperate with
Security--keep doors and
windows closed and locked.
Take precautions and
watch out for one another.
A point to remember:
security has an escort
service. 11 you are in need
of an escort anywhere on
campus, security will be
happy to oblige. Just caJI

emergency. The

. Reed coached tennis at
Lakertdgt! High School in
Lake Oswego
Sorensen, the new R.D.
for Piatt Howard and
Akin, is originally from
Seattle. She is also a
graduate from Evergreen
State College where she
earned a B.A. in Liberal
Arts in 1983
Sorensen accepted the
R.D. position because she is
interested in moving mto
private education a!t a
means of community service
and likes people at the
college age.
Sorensen said her goals
as R.D arc based on the
goa Is of the students and
said she is relying on the
student to determine these
goals
A main idea Sorensen
said she is stressing is the
relationship between the
residents . ""'fhe dorm is
realty our home We're
more than netghbors, we
are part of a family." Before sht.> came to LC
Sorensen spent four years m
Alaska where she was
involved with the Alps
Aids Assistance Program,
the Camp f'ire Association,
and wrote for different
women's magazines .
Prior to coming to LC
Sorensen was employed by
Planned Pftrenthood in
Alaska.
Denise Thompson,
Associate Dean of Students,
said she is very pleased
with the work she has seen
so far by Rt'Cd and Sorensen.
''Both are making a
substantial impact within
their dorm of residence,"
Thompson said. According
to Thompson, they were
hired much la ler than
usual, but in spite of this,
have shown excellent
ability on such short notice.
"I'm so pleased as to how
they've come in and tak~n
the responsibility of
Resident Director."
Thompson said.
scort Service Largely Ignored
Christine Talley
Pronei:r Log staff wnter
Lewis and Clark
students have largely
ignored the Sigma Phi
Epstlon Library Escort
Service since its inception
early last year and this
may lead to its
dtscontinuation
The Escort Servtce was
mttiated in J.lnuary, 1987
by the Commuruty Service
branch of the Stgman 'Ph•
EpsiJon fraternity The
service was established for
those who wished to take
advantage of the library's
extended hours, but fctt
uncomfortab le wtth the
late night or early morning
walks to and from the
library.
Sigma Phi E~ alon Vice
Pr~tdent Greg Barta said,
"It's unfair that some
people can't take
advantage of the longer
library hours because they
don't feel safe on thetr own
campus."
The service is not
restricted to the library.
Barta said the fraternity
will also escort people from
late classes and study
sessions.
Sigma Phi Epsilon
Communit y Service
Chairman Jonathan Pont
said "Although Lewis and
Oark is not immune to the
problems of the world
outside our gates, the c~scnce of this program is to
be aware of the problems
that could happen and try
to prevent them. We're not
a Guardian Angel
0peration."
The fraternity will
supply each R.A. as well as
the ;ibrary reference desk
with a list of the
volunteers and their
numbers. The service blgins
October 4th, and there will
be a volunteer on-call from
7p m. to 7a m. Sundays
through Thur~ays.
So why have people
been lgnonng such a
practica l accessible
servtce? Barta and Pont
saad they both agree it's
not from lack of publicity.
Barta said, ''rve had tots
of people say 'Gee, what a
great idea', but sttll only a
few people call us."
Pont's theory is that
people are leery of waking
someone at 4a.m. for an
escort. Several students confirmed this. One woman
satd, 'Td feel silly gettin~
someone out of bed at 3a.m.
just to walk me home.··
Pont's response to this
attitude is, "Calls in the
middle of the night come
with the territory .
Everyone knows that or
thev wouldn't have ,
volunteered ."
Pont admitted that the
service's future will be
recons1dered if response is
still low this t~rm.
However, he added, "Even
if we get just one or two
calls, I will feel that the
service has benefited the
Lewis and Clark
communi ty. That's the
whole purpose of this
program-to provide the
community with an
important, \'aluable
service."

Info Office Survives Changes
-By Dave AnClrews
Pioneer Log Staff Wnter --
The Pubhc Information
Service, m the past, has
brought the news of Lewis
and Clark acti\ ihcs to the
general public. Th1s year,
however. there has been
some concern about this
ser\'ice being discontinued .
'A hen the contracts of
former Director Chuck
Charnquist and Assoctalc
Director Tony Kne1dek
were not renewed, the
future availability of the
serv1ce seemed doubtful.
Lee Howard, D1rector of
Development, assures that
the serv1ce will defimtely
conttnue Howard spoke
mostly of reor~anizing the -service and reducing the
nwnber of staff members.
Currently, the Develop-
ment Office is scarclung for
somebody to lead the
program , now called
"Public Relations." In the
interim penod, Howard is
acting as director of the
program.
One of the tasks of the
Publtc Relations office 1s to
produce The Week, a
newsletter for LC faculty
and staff. There have
already been two issues and
another will be avallable
today. The office 1s also
still sending out press
releases to local news­
papers to notify the public
of the goings on at LC.

The dust has seltled following the departure of yet
another top adrrurustrator . Moreover this latest dismissal
should not be taken ltghtly. Meg O'Hara, former Dean of
Students, has resigned, a situation that does not bode well
for future communication between students and the
admi nist ra lion.
O'Hara herself would cast no blame. But what are we to
think given the facts? O'Hara's old pos1lion was being
rc\'iewcd during the restructuring of the administration.
O'Hara then discovered she might have to compete for a
new position. Finally, she J...ncw that in previous reviews,
internal candidates had been subjectt."Ci to much criticism and
second-guessing. O'Hara ,,·asn't ushered out the door, but
she was at least shown the handle.
The posiroon of Dean of Student!:' is a vital conduit for
student opinion. This person has lo actively solicit the
thoughts of the students and relay them to the
administra tion. By its very nature, this post is also an
mhercnt1y difficult one. Caught between administrat ors
and students, two groups who infrequently see eye-to-eye,
any job description would stress the word "impartial." But
human nature would tell us otherwise.
Meg O'Hara will be greatly missed. She was a strong
advocate for the student:> . O'Hara sought out :;tudents'
opinions and remained open to differing viewpoints. In
addition, O'Hara represented student opinion at PRC
meetings. And this brings up a very important question.
Who, if anyone, is presently fiUing this capacity and how
large (or small) a share will students be accorded in
decision-making processes in the future?
As students of Lewis and Clark, it is our right and not our
privelege to be heard. Furthermore, the position of Dean of
Students should not be lumped together with another post, a
casualty of administrative reorganization . It must be
treated as a primary decision rather than an afterthought.
ft's tiresome to continually point a finger at the
administration but they must understand that the key to
understanding is in open communication .. Pion~er Log, Octobtr 1, 1987
EEC Signals European Change
Seen from this side of
the Atlantic Ocean, Europe
seems to be a concentration
of old countries that has
long been relegated to
secondary status m the
arena of world politics
Past history says Europe
supports the United States
as long as at is protected
from the Red Army
But as a European
myself, it tS obvtous that an
increasing part of the
European population ,
specafacally the
pohllcians, are tired of
being just a part of the
western world led by the
US And this European
consciousness grows every
time the US makes
pobtical moves that arc
contrary to European
interests. (or example,
aflN the US air strike
againsl Libya in 1986, the
US provided military
assistance when Libya
retaliated against NATO
by attacking an Italian
island.
Before this collective
consciouness manifested
itself tn 1980 when the
European Economic
Community (EEC), moved
from a collaborati on only
dealing with agriculture
and trade into a
cooperation also deahng
with foreign policy Last
year this collaboration on
foreign pohcy became a
formal institution Thts
new purpose of the EEC has
put an informal pressure on
the countnes to carry out a
common pohcy and they are
now more likely to do so.
This new sohdarity was
demonstrated when all the member -countries, except
Great Britain, agreed to
sanctions against South
Africa. Shortly after Great
Britain, the previous lone
dissenter, announced that
they would join anyway,
probably as a result of
pressure from the other
countries.
NaturaJJy it is difficult
for countries that, like
Great Britain and
Germany , recently have
been world powers and
fought against each other,
suddenly to work together
and make a common policy,
especially when European
countries have fought
against each other in two
world wars.
"European
consciousness
grows every time
the U.S. makes
political moves "
In the 1980's we have
seen the United States
almost dktorial posihon tn
NATO challenged by other
NATO members . Greece and
Denmark have taken
reservations in NATO
decis10ns , resulting in foot
notes in NATO-documents .
But Europeans countries
want to become more than
footnotes
Active dissolution
occurred when the US tried
to force their West­
European allies to jotn the
Strategic Defense
lmt1ative (SDI). ln 1985, the European countries
strongly resisted and a
French led alternative
called EUREKA was
formed. All the members of
EEC joined
To me this seems to be a
sign that the Europeans are
realizing their mterests are
better served in a European
Union. This implies that
the member-countries soon
will be walling to let the
European concerns take
preceden ce over indivtdual
nation's concern, m order to
make an mdependent
foreign pohcy and become a
major force in world
politics.
At this time, talk about
a third world power seems
to be a dream--or a
nightmare ~-and ts
naturally not taken
seriously But what a lot of
Americans seem to forget is
that Europe (EEC) has a
population of about 320
mallion, compared to a US
population of about 240
malhon. That, plus the
relatively high
educational level and the
ancreasmgly advanced
communication technology,
makes Europe a potential
world power. Moreover ,
two o( the world's six
nuclear powers are
European countries Great
Britam and France.
In other terms, it is just a
question when the European
people are willing to give
up national sovereagnty in
order to intenstfy the
European collaboration and
detach from the Umted
States

Izquierda Adelante: A Weekly Column o Crisis
By Jonathan Mozzochi
I left the Ideas
Exchange last Thursday
feeltng a ltttle
disenchanted with the
exchange of ideas which
took place between Deans
Mattfeid and Davis and
everyone else in the room.
As I walked out into the
halls of Templeton Center I
distmctly heard the word
'bullshit" being used to
voice someone's appraisal
of the administrative
stance on a certain
controversial jssue. But
what about this word
"bullshit?" What did that
student mean?
In Beyond Revolution : A
New Theory of Social
Movements, by Daniel A.
Foss and Ralph Lar1on, the
word ''bullshit,"among
other things, is examined in
light of the 1960's social
movements . "Bullshit" can
denote a number of things
like "lies" or "duplicity."
Digging a JitUe deeper we hnd that "bu llshit"
may represent statements
whach "taken
indavtdually , may be
demonstrably true, but that
lack substanttve
importance even if true,
while tn the aggregate
amountmg to adeolog;cal
deception . Hence,
everything you learn in
school ts just bullshi t
bramwashing." .
"Bullshat" is also used
by people who seek to
cntioze something for it's
falsity or lack of substance.
In Foss and Larkian terms
people who use "bullshit"
in this more generalized
way "lack the conceptual
apparatus and thought
forms to arttculate" their
cnbcism .
But the most outstanding
use of the word
"bullshit,"at least during
the late sixties, applied to
professors who were left­
wing hypocrites . Foss and
Larkin say here that
"bullshit" applied to "contradictions between
intellectual articulations of
'radicali sm' and the
conditio n of being
behaviorally enmeshed in
bourgeois socaal relations ."
The profe• ~»Or who
champions "The
Revolution" yet weekly
slams 600 pages of reading
in her /his students faces
and never leaves the
chalkboard during class is a
good example of "Old Left
bullshit.''
I don't think the last use
of "bullshit" is very
applicable here at L. C.
Many faculty members
have risked personal job
security to oppose
unpopular administrative
mandates and have
demon strated their
commitment to community
control of the educational
process beyond their
offices. So this denotation
doesn't help us much in
understanding what that
student at the Ideas
Exchange meant by her /his particular version of
"bullshH." But it can with
some modifications . I offer
the following reworked
version of the last
denotation as a suggestion
of what he/she might
have meant, and what I
definitely mean.
"Bullshit": (a fifth
denotation)
The objection to the
assertion that governance
and education are isolated
processes , the former being
the primary concern of
"those who govern" while
the practice of the latter,
which is constantly
impinged upon by the
former and therefore not
separable from it, is best
left to those who study."
So "bullshit'' in this
sense is most applicable to
the administrative stance
on the dichotomy between
education and governance.
Dialogue, between those
enmeshed in "bullshi t"
(fifth denotation) ideology ,
struggling
control
education,
this: and those
to gain more
over their
might run like
Q: Why aren't there
students and faculty on this
College's Board of Trustees
with voting power?
A: Well, if you really want
to get a good education, you
need to concentrate hard on
your studies and not be
preoccupied with finances
and public relations,
curriculum development
and implementation,
physical plant expansion,
fed uclary responsibility ,
the job status of employees ,
etc. etc., etc. And that's
what we are here for.
It sounds so complicated
and time consuming that
only a Harvard graduate
could handle it all!
Right... "Bullshit," says 1.

To the Editor
After ha vmg been away
from my home country of
Uruguay for seventeen
years, I recently returned to
see what twelve years of
mtl itary d •eta tors hip
(1973-1985) had done to it
Uruguay was called the
"Switzerland of Amenca"
all during my school and
un1versity days My
purpose for returning to
Uruguay and Argentina was
my sabbabcal from the
Foreign Languages Depart­
ment to research women
wnters and women's
organizations in both
countries
Uruguaya ns had always
been proud of the fact that
both mhabitants and way
of life displayed char­
acterastics which made
them unique within Latm
America. Among these was
a homogenous population
composed mostly of people
of European descent and
cultural heritage; a class
structure which was
dominated by a large
middle class; and a
paternalistic, democratic
government which had
turned Uruguay into a
welfare state with
advanced soc1al legisla­
tion. Up to the sixHes, the
country enjoyed economic
prosperity which support­
ed the political and social
climate of stability and
well-being which had been
taken for granted during
the present century.
This state of affairs
collapsed by the end of the
s1xt1es, at the hme when I
left, as external and
internal reasons plunged
the country into an econorruc
and social crisis. By the
lead a decent and
productive life
l visited Uruguay twice,
from neighboring Argentina
where I was staying, the
first time in April, and
then again in July 1987.
• • aces
Dunng that penod, there
were large mcreases in food
prices, transportation costs,
heahng oil, electricity and
• runnang water, to name a
few, while mflation was
decreasing the purchasing
power of the already
substandard wages. A large
number of people were
moving from their homes to
shantytowns, whach had
multiplied by ten in a short
whtle. I was able to vistt
and talk to residents of
low-income neighborhoods
and shantytowns about
the1r sit ua ttons, the• r
lives, and their needs
One of these neighbor­
hoods was I.N.V.E. 18. (tIS
located in what used to be
the working class barr~o o(
La Teja, in the capital city
of Montevideo . 1 was struck
by the changes that had
taken place. Housing now
is rundown government low­
income buildings , wh1ch
have been totally neglected
and look like shelled
structures (J.N V .E. is the
Spanish acronym for
NationaJ Institute for Low­
Income Housing) and
shantytown dwellings
made from discards. The
working-class neighbor s
were no where to be seen,
and, instead, r found
unempl oyed people,
"I promised
that we could
give them our
help."
suffenng from lack of
adequate housing, food,
sa nt tary and health
conditions. An "Assoctahon
of Mothers for Social
Action" has organized,
within the barrio, to help
allev1ate the most pressing
problem: hunger.
One cold July afternoon ,
winter m the Southern
Henusphere, 1 went to visit
• ert s them, to see their project at
work At five o'clock, after
school had let out, around
etghty to one hundred
school chddren, women and
babies streamed mto the
basement of the remains of
a rundown butlding in the
neighborhood, which was
used as a center for the
association They came to
rece1ve one glass of milk
each and seeking people
who would listen to them.
The mothers themselves
raised funds, organiz•ng
sales, raffles, and
collechons to keep this
pro)Cct runrung
I stayed for three hours
as the women talked to me,
as a group ftrst and then
mdivtdually , about the1r
lives and problems . l
learned that for many of
these chtldren and women,
the single glass of milk
that they received every
afternoon was the•r only
source of nourishment until
the next day Many do not
have a place to live and
they spend cold winters in
hn and cardboard shacks,
without any blankets or
appropriate clotlung. The
"families" were composed
mostly of women, some of
them in thetr teens, many
who were pregnant , and
several kids, who survived
without any source of
income or government
asststance
After they talked, J
spoke too l told them
about Portland and the
school were I taught, about
our students and their
interest tn other countnes
and their people, and I
promtsed that we could
give them our help.
When we satd goodbye
it was dark outs1de and a
bitter wind was blowmg. A
few of the women took me
around the netghborhood
and then walked me to the
bus stop. A handful of
women, two of them • otn
several months pregnant ,
w1thout warm clothing,
were gathenng their
children to walk back
home, some a long way in
the dark, as they could not
afford the ctght-cent bus
fare, nor could they pass up
the free glass of milk.
The Association of
Mothers is worki~g on a
project now and they have
let me know that they
rememb er my visit and
promise. A week ago, I
received a letter appealing
for help. They want to
recondttion their present
facthhes to start a soup
kitchen for the barrio.
They plan to feed
approximately three
hundred persons a day, to
ensure that these people
get, at least, one meal per
day.
The basement where we
met needs repa1rs so that tt
can be used for this purpose,
and netghbors are willing
to donate all the labor But
they need funds to buy
pamt and materials, and to
purchase two gas stoves, a
fndge, seven tables,
fourteen benches, cookmg
utensils , dishes and
flatware, plus money to
purchase food
Donations are being
accepted now to help fund
1970's the military stepped
in and took over the
governme nt. but they did
not withstand nattonal and
mtemational opposition to
thetr d1smal economic
pohcies and human rights
record. By 1984, after
lengthy and mvolved
negotiations between the
military government and
the traditional political
parties, elecbons were held
that brought about a
democratic government by
1985
I found the transthon to
democracy, as the present
penod ts called, to be
wrought with soctal and • •
........ rtsts
political problems due to
the nature of this
"Uruguayan style" transi­
tion, in which complex
negotiations resulted in a
pact, whose consequences
are slowly unraveling . But
one of the most immediate
effects of the crisis, the one
that seems to be the
hardest to withstand, is
the economic recession.
While democracy has
meant a restoration of
freedom and civil rights for
Uruguay's population of
almost three miiJion
inhabitants, it had not
produced economic im­
provements. The democra­
tic government, while
struggling w1 th the
external debt and economic
policies handed over by the
mtlitary regime, has not
managed to curb inflation or
the steady increase in
prices. As a result, Uruguay
1s m the mtdst of a huge
cnsis wh1ch strikes its
populabon through unem­
ployment, hunger and a
lack of the basic conditions,
makmg it 1 mpossible to
this project. We are
plann1ng to have a
rummage sale on campus in
November to raise cash.
You can help by
volunteering your efforts or
by donating money, used

teaching of the art of inqu1ry, that
is, asking questions, opening oneself
and a new topic of understandtng.

in the future On the other hand, the
perspectives accomplish this very
same task while allowing students
to complete graduation
requtremcnts. it were offered in the winter and
spring quarters. it could be used as a
faUback to those having difficulty
with school.
Yes, this is the infamous Basic
Inquiry that every freshman must
take during the fall tenn. The class
that is designed to open our minds to
all the myraid offerings of options
offered at Lewis and Clark. The
class that is designed to teach us
how to think.
It accomplishes what it sets out
to do. But is it a good idea to have
this class required by all freshmen?
Maybe not. But when· a high school student
apphes to an mstitutton of higher
learning. he should already have
the ability to think and learn and
explore any subject he or she
chooses.
One could argue that Basic
Inquiry does more than teach
students to inquire into what they
read. The curriculum draws from
each of the areas offered at Lewis
and Clark: Science, Social Science,
Fine Arts, and Humanities
providing students with a glimpse
into various areas of study. Thus Bl
can help students decide what It seems that I am down on B.l.,
that r•m saymg tt should be
abolished . Actually, 1 think B.l. ts
a wonderful tool to prepare
freshmen for college life, and college
work. lt should not, however . be
required of all freshmen . College is
full of classes to be explored that
were not offered in high school; and
wouldn't people be more inclined to
inquire into something they choose
to do. Perhaps instead of making
B.J. required , it should be strongly
recommended .
Limiting Basic Inquiry to one
quarter should also be reviewed. If Basic Inquiry is also supposed to
bring together people with different
viewpoints to discuss a common
topic. But in the first quarter of
their freshmen years, how many
people are sure of their viewpoints?
1, for one, am not.
An argument for having B.l.
required by freshmen is that it
brings the freshman class together .
[t gives them a common topic of
conversation binding them all
together in their new environment.
This it accomplishes ; the sound I
heard from my window was
definitely one of community. .. Pa~e 8

Does Our Bookstore Do Its Job?
To the Editor
A good bookstore should
have lots of books. A good

have lots of books in

should have books related

sad because a good

Author Sets Story Straight
To the Editor:
I am writing this in
reference to an article
published in the last
edition of the Pio Log; my
orticl\! entitled "Bork
Galvanizes Left." My only
complaint is that two of
the sentences in my article
were altered after 1 last
view~d the "print copy." For those readers who keep
track of such details, the
word '"integrity,"' in the
second paragraph , should
read "Nixon." And further
on in the article, in the
fifth paragraph, fourth
sentence, it should read:
"Reagan's idea of a liberal
is someone allowing women
to wear shoes during the
bnef intervals which occur between pregnancie s.
Canada, faced w1th a

1 would like to thank

article in the first place
and for allowing this letter
to appear for clarity's sake.

Are Parties Allowed?
MlkeThiss
Pion«r Log 11111/f wrlta
Dionysis knows a few things about parties. He knows a good
party isn't typical. He knows the best parties will snowball
and fuel themselves , like nitrous which creates it's own
oxygen supply as it bums. He also understands and lives by a
law -"Doing it means doing it properly ." That means it's
better to have a single bash than a dozen lame-tit affairs.
Students should have the legal capacity to bust loose o
the weekends so they'll be more willing to absorb som
higher education come Monday, BECAUSE, they will
always make the effort to hold these cathartic gatherin
as social functions and a natural outlet for their aggressions .
Anybody who can't pull hts stops out will become a nuisance ,
especially in the library where students go for the expres
purpose of sleeping . The straight-laced Victorians neve
learned to step down and boogie and soon became th
greatest pack of licentiou s perverts in modem history. Ou
Party Contract was drafted by Queen Victoria herself.
Lewis & Clark students have the potential to rock th
foundations of this 1ssuc, but little has been done in ou
favor. Why does anybody wish to combat this martial law?
After all, it keeps things SAFE, it makes the insuranc
people HAPPY and every bme you want a beer, you'll have
to wait in UNE ... ten minutes, half an hour, keep SMlUNG .
Are we having fun yet?
A sentence in the Residence Hall Party Applicatio
Procedures and Form (abbreviated, PC> reads, "Parties held
Sunday through Thursday are discouraged ." Wouldn't it be
nice if the founding fathers and mothers could shoot
straight? (We didn't ask for sugar on our shredded wheat.)
What they meant to say was, "Parties are discouraged ."
Full stop.
As a result, off-campus parties are on the increase.
Students , even though they should know better, will drink
and drive more often. Alcohol impairs your ability to use
logic. Are the authors and advocates of the PC alcoholics?
"Drink! Drink! Drink! Drink! Don't think! Drink! Drive!
Kill!" -H. Rollins. What is the PC? It's a different thing
to each of us; an ingrown toena1l, a dead possum on the side
of the road, a neurotic gardener working around the dock,
snipping each and avery sprouting bud and stripping the
sensual vines from U\e trellis of our lives. It is the law of an
ill fantasy that attempts to divide and conquer the soul if
the student body. Apparently some policy makers don't
realize how much we resent being babysat 14 years after the
last of us nursed mom. But, we'll continue to tolerate the
unreality and the patronizing guidelines of our false
manifesto .
"Can anyone order a rose to halt in mid-bloom?" -H.

The human body is incredibly durable. When you're of
college age, you're almost indcstructable . College is the best
time to 'push the envelope' mentally, physically and
otherwise. For four years we will eat, drink, smoke and read
POISION until we team what mixes, what keeps us from
getting to class on time and what keeps us awake when we
get there. Most of us can place mind above matter, but a few
wiD never team. You don't even need to oonsult your instincts
to know a 6-pack won't do your homewor~ but we must have
a How-To-Party Guide complete with definiUons.
Go to any R.A. alter dinner and obtain your own copy of
the Residence Hall Party Application Procedures and Form.
If he or she doesn't have a copy, politely see to it that they
find one for you. They are paid for doing you these favors.
Read it and you'll be shocked , revolted, amused and
probably at a loss for words. The words to look for are,
'protection,' 'appropriate,' 'veto,' 'neither,' 'any,' 'must,'
'minimum,' 'obviously,' 'loss,' 'failure,' and 'if.' We'd all be
in jail it weren't for 'if.'
II the idea is to make things harder in our academic
plenum, our PC is a great idea. Is it necessary to implement
an order so contrary to human nature? The SAE party last
Friday night will serve as testimony to the restrictive
nature of our PC. It looked like the Stones were coming and
it felt like the second coming -too many people, too little
beer, the crowd milled. Go, spuds, go!
"They made you a moron, a potential H-Bomb." -S.
Vldous
It's a sad day when students begin to associate a party
with the limitations of the PC instead of the party itself.
We have been shackled by a list of DONTS. We need to
concentrate on the things that count.
DO avoid being macho.
DO leave your Hard Rock shirts at home.
If you have the inclination, DO purge yourself as to avoid
fouling the footways of fellow party-goers.
DO indulge in the liberties of college life even if you must
disavow Queen Vic's vindictive conduct manual. If they ask

suggesting J get involved

Invited me to find my way
to the chapel basement for
a mcetmg of the "Umbrella
Croup" during the first
week of school Now I must
admit, 1 am not much of an
actiVist. I never attended a
Students In Solidarity with
Central American Peoples
(5.1 S.C.A.P) meeting last
year, and my experience
with most campus activist
groups is about as Involved

however that 1 am not

whose fears concerning
nuclear weapons are more
than justified. I am aware
of all of these problems and
many more, as 1 believe
99% of the Lewis & Oark
community is.
Why don't more people
get involved then? This is
a question many of those
heavily involved in local
and global outreach
activities often ask
themselves. The answer
consists of a variety of
explanations; a feeling of
helplessness, the belief

"On Campus" Is 0 Focus
To the Editor:
As Autumn crashes in on
us again, l remember a
question that has been
plaguing me ever since
summer started and the last
explosive weeks here on
campus became memory. At
that time, I asked myself,
"What wiJl happen to the
fire which caused so many
students, faculty, and staff
to come together with a
power unexperienced
before, and let out the cry:
'This wonderful place
belongs to us! We cannot sit
bnck and watch the process
of education Y<e care about
so deeply be marred in such
a manner'?"
I thought perhaps 1 had
an answer to that queshon,
but something appearing
last week in the media was
an especially dishearten­
ing addihon and confirmed
my suspicion that we still have a long way to go.
Inside everyone's Pioneer
Log was a copy of
Newsweek's On Campus
Magazine . Looking through
this confirmed that so much
of what the coUege as gomg
through is a reaction to the
growing conservatism this
publication represents . The
magazine simply reiter­
ated the superficial goals
sought for by so many easy
solutions, the highest
profit margin, and the
rosiest picture. News-

queshon as that even after

I haven't the slightes t
notion of why thts group
was estabhshed. 1 hope H
can become a student
empowe rment group, but
this is an idea I have
thought about, not one
which was expressed. I got
the feeling that this

even a vague concept. If
someone who attended that

WHY I WILL A TrEND
THE NEXT MEE 1 lNG
I know that after such
criticism some may find it
odd that I would still
support this Umbrella
Croup. The truth of the
matter is that 1 have strong
feelings about student
power on this campus, and I
believe everyone at that
meeting docs too. I also
know many people have
felt strongly about issues,
only to have these feelings
thwarted after having
attended a meeting, a
lecture, or some other
activity which didn't live
up to thetr expectations.
These bad experiences only
serve to enhance the
negativity they first strove
to overcome in order to bring
themself to the meeting .
This can happen, and does
happen, at the most
organized and well­
mtentioned of meetings.
The Umbrella Croup should
reahze, especially a::, a
newly formed group, it
faces all of the difficulties
inherent m orgamzmg for a
purpose. So why add flame
to a fire; danty ts essential
1f people are to rally
behind an issue. 1 will
attend the next meeting of
the Umbrella Croup, and l
encourage people reading
this to do the same, but
let's get it straight this
hme because no cause can
afford to lose support due to
ill--defined goals and lack
of dtrechon .

Krzteger Appointed Writer-In- Residence
By MeHssa Lim
Pioneer Log Staff Wnter
Terry Krueger has been
given the official title of
writer-in-residence on the
LC. campus thts year. Last
year he was involved with
the Engltsh department in
the Master of Arts
Teaching Program here at
Lewis and Oark.
Offering some of the
same courses as he did last
year, Krueger has seen a
fuiJer enrollment for this
term. He enJoys seeing
familiar students 'develop
as writers and critical
thmkers."
"1 have a very easy and
ideal teaching sttuation
here at Lewis and Oark,''
he continued. "Teachers
here are experts in their
fteld and take their
students :tnd those fields
seriously. Students have
access to their teachers
here, whereas in many
places that isn't possible."
After completing his llndergTaduate work at the
Universi ty of Montana ,
Krueger then went mto the
wnt~r ·s workshop at Iowa
and is presently concentrat­
ing on obtaining his Phd.
Before coming to
Portland about one-and-a­
half years ago, krueger
spent six months tn
Argentina at the National
Uni vcrsity of Catamarca in
Argentina , where he was a
teacher and Fulbright
lecturer. WHh moderru sm
as tus area of experttse, he
lectured at almost all
un1verstlics in the northern
provmces of Argentma.
Although he found the
students m Argentina to be
''mfinitely more aware of
what was going on in the
US. than most U.S.
students themse.lves ."
Krueger is "impressed by
the students here. They are
refreshingly challenging,"
he said. ''You have to be on
your toes."
Even though Krueger
has an excellent reputation among students as a
professor, he ts also, of
course, a writer His works
include the popular novels
Vectors and Night Crres
anJ he 1s currently
finishing up with Shadow
Dancers, his third book in
four years. Since he
partiopated in the writer's
workshop in 1979, he has
been writing fairly
seriously every day.
"SubJects of my novels
depend on what mterests
me," he explained . "Now I
am experimenting with
what can be done with the
popular format.
As a goal, I try to reach
a select few to radiate my
1deas out.''
At LC, Krueger's goals
include "working with the
students and seeing how
they respond to new ideas."
"As a teacher, you
always hope that as your
students leave, th~y will
accomplish something
where you have lJeen an
influnce,' ' he concluded. ers
the nature of crime and the
material will be taken from
actual en mcs comrru tted in
the Portland area,"
Reynolds explained. "I
can't tell you any more than
that because it hasn't been
developed yet."
ln addidon , a
professional Japanese
company will be on campus
November 8 to give a one­
time performance of their
play, Make Up. "It's a 90-
minute production w1th
English subtitles. I

Reynolds saad.
The classes oHered m
the theater department
range from Modem Dance to
Stage Make-Up to
Puppetry When asked af
you have to take the
classes to get involved m
the productions, Reynolds
Stud, "No, not at all Jt
can't hurt to take an achng
class tf you want to act, but
we cast solely on the
audttions and anyone can
get mvolved with the set
construction or any other
aspect of the productions ."
But why volunteer to do
a JOb you could get credit
for? LC offers classes m all
aspects of theater
Sophomore Margaret
Victor is currently enrolled
in a set construction class.
"Right now our main project
ts buildmg the sets for Top
Girls," she saad.
Sophomore Christine
Barreu commented on her
experiences with her dance
classes: "l was really
impressed with both of my
instructors , Mary Oslund
and Robin Krught, and it is
a lot of fun."
The theater offers many
options for interested
students. You can build sets,
make costumes, take a class
in children's theater, or see
a friend perform .

Kerouac Interprets Youth
by Gllion Gelh.s
Pioneer Log Staff Writer
Faced with o battery of
contemporary literary
assults such as Bright
Lights. Big City or it'~
West Coast counterpart,
t..css Than Zero, it is
sometimes difficult for a
reader to remembe r that
these "youth .. novels have
been in print for generations
bc(ore ours.
One such novel which
justly deserves . tts
rcoccuring popular 1ty ls
].Jck Kcrouac's On the
Road. First published in
1956, this novel spans
America's continent and a.Jt
its possibilities ln an age
when young people were
just b~ginning to form a
group identity.
The narrator, Salvador
Paradise, tells the story ot
hts contincntul crisscrosses
,,!> ht• explores America
with his friend Dean
Moriarty Racing from New
York to Denver to San
Francisco and back during
his college years, Sal
discovers the mysteries of
alcohol, sex, love, drugs,
money, friendship and jazz.
Kerouac's words sing on
the pages like the jazz
music he believed in.
Passages engulf you as you
read until you are
swallowed in and are a part of Sal's "new beat
generation". Unlike the
jaded youth of Lt5s Than
Zero, et ol, Kerouac's
characters still have an
optimism that carril.~ th('m
across the Amcric.1n Night.
Sal describes himself cmd
his purpose thioughout the
book in passages like this:
I shambled after as I've
been doing all my life after
people who interr.st me,
because the only people
who interest me are the
mad ones, the ones who are
mad to live, mad to talk,
mad to be savttl, dtsirous of
everything at the same
time, the ones who never
yawn or say a commonplace
thing, but bum, bum, bum
like fabulous yellow roman
candlr.s.
The characte rs arc not
cloiste red behind
Establishment Ideals of the
1950s. Tiley are not nai\'c,
nor do they lack ~rception,
only cond~mnation. They
arc open to every
opportunity America had
to offer. Kcrouac was
introducing a new
generation to readers, the
Bca t Generation of the
American subculture. Over
30 years later, On the Road
still speaks to young people
anxious to explore all their
possibilities.

Despite some fine
individual performances
and a solid team effort, the
men's varsity soccer team
dropped two more close
games this past week and
saw their overall record
fall to 0-4.
On Sept. 23, the Pioneers
were matched up against a
larger and more ex­
penenced team from Wil­
lamette and lost 2-0 in a
game that was much closer
than the score reflected .
Then on Saturday a
phys1cal squad from Pacific
Universtty came to Gris­
wold and saw their lone
goal scored in the second
manute of play hold up for a
Canal score of 1-0.
Against Willamette the
LC men were outplayed for
much of the first half as
Willamette continually
beat the Pios on and off the
balL They also managed to
keep most of the play on
LC's half of the field
However, LC dsd ftnd
themselves with a couple
of breakaway s1tuahons on

the counterattack, but were
never able to capitalize.
Willamctte scored thetr
lone goal of the first half m
the 15th minute of play on
a pretty combination during
which the LC defense was
apparently caught sleep­
ing
The ball was brought
down the left flank by a
Willamettc wanger and
then crossed vta the aar
into the area of the goal
mouth where it found the
head of the taJicst player
on the field, the Wolverine
stnker. He headed tl m for
a 1-0 lead Tlus was still
the score at halfhmc
In the second hau the
Ptos came out more ag­
gressively which allowed
them to dominate most of
the play EspecJally
evident of this were the
final 20 minutes dunng
whtch LC hit the crossbar
once with a rocket of a shot
from about 20 yards out.
The Plos applied con­
tmuous pressure which pro­
duced numerous other scor­
ing opporturutles
However, LC couldn't
buy a goal. and finally

both sides, 30 to 50 yards m

was volleyed mto the net
by a Pacific player. Pholo By Travis Bry~rtott
After this the game
turned physical and both
squads gave each other
ample opportunities to
score. Perhaps LC's best
chance of the farst half
came m the 23rd minute on
a ball that was crossed
from left into the middle
and barely missed con­

Sports Shorts

Just think, only 194 mort days until the next Arena Leil~
football game ...
Random thoughts from the business of sports:
-If people don't want to watch the USFL, Arena League
football or other minor leagues, why would they want to
watch the NFL scabs?
-Talking about scabs, one of the players trying out for the
Seattle strike team is David Lindley, the record setting
quarterback from Linfield ...
-I don't know who is right or wrong in the NFL dispute, but
except for a handful of the top players, free agency would
never work anyway. 1 mean who's going to pay $1 million for
an offensive lineman?
---Baseball players, on the other hand, are much more
vtsible and can instantly help a new team both on the field
and at the box office ...
--Is the USFL officially dead yet, or is it still on a leave of
absence?
---NFL scab football should have all the excitement of
profcsiona l wrestling . After all, aren't both geared around
(an manipulation?
-If the NFL season were to end without resumption, would
the 2-0 Minnesota Vikings be a league co-champion?
-Despite Nebraska beating both Arizona State and UCLA,
and Oklahoma being the number one rated team m the
country, the Pac 10 remains the best football conference in
the country ...
-·-The University of Oregon is a case in point, as they've
already beaten a good Colorado squad and played a very
good Ohio State team tough Don't be suptised if the Ducks
make one of the Pac-10 big boys cat quackers some time this
season ...
---UCLA and Arizona should battle for the league crown,
with Washington havmg a chance and USC on the outside
looking in. No other league has as strong a top four, and
Arizona isn't a patsy ...
-·The Oregon State Beavers, on the other hand, would be
hard pressed to beat the Pio's if last weekends game against
Texas means anything ...
-Now if only the Pac 10 could play basketball ...
-It doesn't get any easier for the LC football team, as next
weeks homecoming game is agamst undefeated Southern
Oregon State College, which has already crushed l..infield
earlier this season ..
-If the Portland Beavers of the PCL bascb.1ll league moved
to Colorado as is being discussed, would anyone know the
difference?
·-Speaking of baseball, the Sar. Fransisco Giants have as
good a chance of winning the World Series as any team south
of Toronto ...
-If John Potter's knees hold up this season, look for the LC
basketba ll team to be much improved this season ...
--It's still not too late to send a letter to the Log sports
dept. We'll pnnt anything that's semi-intellige nt and
slightly intelligible ... omen

The Pioneer volleyball
team took another step
towards repeating their
Columb •a League
championship of a year
ago, playing Willamette
University Sept. 12 in
Salem.
The women won the first
game 15-7, dropped the
second 10-15 and cruised
through the ne"t two 15-2
and 15-1 to capture the
match. The win moved the
team's conference record to
4-0 and their overall mark
against NAJA opponents to
12-2.
In spite of the outcome,
coach )1m Kirby was not
completely pleased about
the team's ov-erall per­
formance , stating simply,
"We won.
"If the girls' would
worry less about all the
little detail and simply
play volleyoall they'd
play better," he added.
The match on Friday
night at the University of
Portland resulted an a loss
for the Pios, 2-15,14 16, 15-
9, 9-15 In sp1te of the loss,
Kirby noted some posileve
performances by semor L1sa
jacobs and junior Kathy
Copple commending them
for "the best outstci.e hit­
ting all year," nohng that
the much taller U of P team eat Success
had onJ y ten blocks against
them
Freshman Joellc Beck
also earned high praise
from her coach as he satd
she "came on in a b1g way,
served tough, passed well
and made big contribu­
tions"
Kirby seemed very con­
fident about the women's
chances to retam their
league title, but was a
little more cautious about
district "I don't expect to lose a match
m conference," he said. "I
am concerned about repeat·
ing district." fhe stumbling
block for the team could be
Western Oregon State Col­
lege, accordmg to Kirby, but
he believes if the women
serve and execute well,
they can beat WOSC.
Th1s week the Pios
travel to UPS for a tourna­
ment on Friday and Satur~
day.
Rugby Tearn Opens Season
The Pioneer rugby team
started their season last
week with a 10 on-a-side
tournament (nonnally there
