5-year Battle or Recognition Finally Succeeds
By Calion Ceihs
Pimrccr Log staff writer
The support staff of
l cwis and Clark College
has voted to become 1 ts
own collective bar­
gaining, unit through an
election held by the
National Labor Relations
Board. The vote took
place Tuesday, January '5
and passed with a 70
percent majority.
The group aFfected by
lhis vote was defined by
the NLRB as "All support
staff in the College oi Arts
and Letters, Law School
and Graduate School
induding: clerical, sec­
retanal, institutional
servtces and print shop
and laboratory tech­
nicians." Excluded from
this group are grounds/
mcuntenance personnel
(who already belong to a
national union), house­
keeping personnel, fac­
ulty, administ rators and
their assistants.
The support staff has
been workmg towards
~rganiz. ing for the past
f1ve years. The first
accomplishment in recognitiOn came two
years ago when former
Vice President of Financ­
ing Dick Sorensen estab­
lisned an Advisory
Committee of support
staff members. This
Advtsory Committee has
been acting as a liaison
between the support staff
and the college admm­
istration .
Last May the support
staff voted in favor of
forming a bargaining
unit Karen Nairn,
International Affairs
secretary and member of
the AdvtsoryCommittee,
stressed the independent
nature of thetr organ­
ization "There is no
outside umon. We are not
subsidized by anyone
else-it's just us."
The group's first
organized effort was to
gcun recognition from the
administration. They
wrote a letter last spring
to President Gardner
requesting that the
college recognize them as
a collective bargaining
unit. Their request was
denied.
In June, 1987, the suP.porL staff hired John
BaJley, an independ ent
advocate, to advtse them
and to help \vith their
organization . Bailey is
employed by other
organization s around
Portland, including the
support staff at Mt. Houd
Community College who
recommended him to the
group at LC .
With Baileys help,
the support staff sent
another letter to the
admtnrstration last fall.
Again, their request for
recognition was denied.
The group then filed a
petition with the NL RB to
be recognized by the state
as a collective bargaining
unit The NLRB sent a
letter to President
Gardner outlining the
petition and announcing
the election that woula
take place this january.
The :--Jl RB advised
LC's support staff
throughout the process
and ran last week's
election. 100 of the 108
staff members eligible to
vote did so. The mea~ure
pas~ed with 70 affirming
votes-Now the college is obligated to recognize
the nC\V union as a
collective bargaining
unit.
Membcro:; of the ne•..v
union believe that their
organization will event­
ually lead to better
relallons between Lheir
group and the admin­
tstration . '\Jatrn ex­
plained "Up to now,
there have been changes
in operations, proced­
ures, evaluations, sal­
aries and job descriptiOns
that were never stan­
dardized. That's one of
lhc things we'd like to
change. All we ask is to be
treated fairly and be

Mcm bers of the
support staff are not
required to join the
newly-formed union.
Currently, there are 60
dues-paying member .
Dues are five dollar~ per
month, a portion of
which goes to pay John
Bailey who win remain
employed by the group.
Nairn and other
members are optimistic
~bo~t their new org.,n­
tzatlon. "fh::cause the vote
was so overwhl"lming,
you can see that people
do fe~l it is time for a

w.1nts a gncvance procedure
under a contractual situation
for solving problems on equal

In january, 1987 portions
of LC's constitution
providing for faculty

were suspended. lntenm
policy, established unlll new
faculty partic1pation in

developed, has not proven to

The faculty will (ilea legal

January 15. The Director and
his staff then w1ll review

1,426 pages of test1mony and

determine tf the faculty qualifies to Mg.mize .1

One of the components
of the NLRB' s dL-cision will
be to determine ifl ( l.lc ulty

the Yeshiva ruling,
managers cannot organize.
At present, the faculty dot~s
not have the right to vote to
decide whether or not they
want to organize.
"I want to emphasize

Perfect Problems
Pcrfcct moments are a rarity today.
Pt.:ople tend to plon them too much or
expect everything to glow around them
and beth to sound as a voice from heaven

pcrfuct moment, relax and enjoy it!,. This,
however, is rarely the case.
It ~ms the prevaibng conception of a
perfect moment in today'< society is the
im11ge we get from filmsortclcvtsion. We
know when Meryl Strecp has fallen m
love. for example when she becomes
<~urrounded by light from a CE •soft
light" bulb and her accent r1.>ccdcs

ot "what love i.s like .. from such 1magery.

perfect moments occur white bcmg

~trong belief that perfect moments arc

OSPIRG provides update, calls for funds
To the Edttor
On Tuesday, OSPIRC held a pehtion
dnve to show .;tudent support In the past
five year; OSPIRC ha.,done three petitions,
all of whtch were .,igncd by a maJOrity of the
student body We c.hare your frustration
Wlth this proccsc;, We hopcthlsdrive will be
the last
The petitions ~tatcd clearly that students
support the work of OSPIRG on campus.
The c;tudent., alc;o affirmed that OSPlRC
should be funded at a level which would
allow the programs to contmuc
You're probably familiar with OSPlRC
as the sponsor of the.'ic campus-Wide
activities . Hunger Task Force, volunteer
programc: , the Hunger Cleanup, Simple
Mcals, Global Rcahty Dmner. Fast for a
World Harvest, toxtc taste re_search,
campaigning for pas~gc of legislation,
surveys. letter writing campatgns,
intem.,hlps, consumer safety rc~rch and
programs , on<ampu<; recycling, forums,
news conference., voter education and
voter rcgu;tratton
You may abo know that OSPlRC has
b1.>cn of great value to students m that H

leadership skills and to learn about the

Letters to the Editor should bcaddre~ to

Friday of the week prior to Thursday
publication . Submis.~;ions should be typed,
double &paced and include the author's
name, as well as academic clll55, faculty political process in a way we could not learn
anywhere else.
Without OSPIRC, tudent~ at leWis and
Oark would not be able to help draft a bill to
go before the Oregon legislature, receive
national attention for a rec;carch pro)Cct, or
direct a staff of lobbyists, lawyers and
researchers .
Although students agree that OSPIRC's
contribution to LC is invaluable, we
continue to be funded at the same level we
were in 1973 We think at I~ only rea<;anable
to be granted the mcrease that the student-.
have requested , eo;pccially cons1dcnng that

Srott Peck, author of the be<it-scllcr
A D•ffuent Drum· Community
MaS.mgand Pt:llrx, began a two-day
workshop with sixty people from
the College Present were
repre .. entativcs from all

College's executive officers,
tru~tccs, admmistrative c;taff,
faculty, c;upport staff, chaplam
and students reprc .. enting the
Law, Graduate and Under­
graduate divisaons of the College.
Our task was to form ourselves
into a communtty an the two day..
and to explore the possibilities. for uniting the w01rnng c<~mps c1t the
Collegr (Jil six or ~vcn of them at
lac;t rount) and bnngtng pc.1cc to

Wtthan an hour of the

angry and p.tinful r ... x•llngc; that
parttapants felt about the pl"\!scnt

open Even Scotty (as P<.>ck wi!>h<.>d
to be called) seemed overwhelmed
by the intenc;lty and depth of the
antagon1sm bet ween ccrt 1an
faculty and the adminislration .
Scotty urged uc; to c;tay off the
tssucs that have plagued the
College and to focus on our
feehng !» a'l lndtvadual~ not roles
(1 c., student, President ,
professor)-about the mstitution
and its problems. What bCClme
clear to all prec;cnt is that the
mdivtduaJ s that comprit;ewhat we
term "the Lewac; and Clark
Community'' all care deeply about
the instttution and the students,
whom President Gardner referred
to as "the very heart of the
inc.htutton ."

wamng factions truly have the
best mterestsof the institution and
studentc; at heart, what evil fof'CC<'
arc behand the general nastiness
that seems to prevail on our fatr (If

To the Ed1tor·
One of the strengths of the
lewis and Oark College is its
growing c;ense of intcmahonal
awareness, through its high
foreign student enrollmen t, its
curriculum and its extensive
ovcr;cas program. Amving in
China, we were encouraged by LC
admmistra tors to wnte the Log

students at LC, China rcmams a
mystery) Eric Flamm spent two
weeks working on the article for

an tlrttclc about student life an a

returned the artade to Eric and
asked ham to cut It in half-since
that is how much you mmdlcssly
ha,.k.ed away!
In your editing process, you
took what waC\ a positive, realistic
view of student life in China and
extl'actcd all of the American

Ptonecr Log Staff Hoopsler In theory. I fc<!l that thc3 point
line is a good addition to the
college game, but not at the present
distance. 1 mean 19ft 9 tn i'> .1 httlc
close to be worthy of an add it tonal
potnt Some college coachC" are
even o. bit more adamant about the
lack of distance. Coach Lou

'My grandma could hit that .;hot,

Just when you thought it was safe to
read the Log again, here comes another
column of crisis. From now on, th1s
column will only discuss the gravest of
crises. America is beset by multitudes of
problems like the homeless and an
immoral young generation (who us?).
Time Magazme tells us that Ethiopia is
starving again and the Soviets just won't
get out of Afghanistan But let's get down
to the most serious crisis of all-1 don't have
a car.
Ronald Reagan keeps telling us how
great things are today, so why shouldn't
the wealth be shared? J don't need a fancy
car, JUSt $0mething that starts, never
breaks down, uses no gas, and seals the 25
pt."'ple on my floor.
For those of you who have no idea
what thistsall about, perhaps you ought to
join the Log so you can understand our
mside jokes. Another major crisis in my
life (it doesn't take much) is this page. 1
know that Jt is sideways, I'm not that off.
Yet.
