RAs, RDs and representatives from
all residence halls (except Akin) and an off-campus representative
held 8 discuSSIOn .
Several key questions surfaced
at the open forum held Friday mght
•There ts a demand for more
clarity 10 outlmang the job descrip
tions of the RAs and R Ds and the
evaluauon and finng process for
these poSJUons. How can residenLc;
be made more aware of these i\
sues? How can the evaluauon and
finng process be made more con
sastcnt? What are the righ~ and
respono;abiline.s of residents?
•The satuation between an RA
and h1~ or her superior, the RD, is a
personal employment L'\sue While.
some students fecllhat RAs should
have the rightlO rur the II gnevan~
through a JUdicial system. others
feellhat the prot.ection of confiden
uality would not pcnnit this.
•Should the RAs be respon
sible for enforcang the alcohol
poltcy? If so, how? If not, who
else?

these problems as the csmbUshment

Progress made on master plan for campus development
by Scott Erickson
of the Pionetr Log
h has been a liule under one
)'Car sux:e Lcwas and Clarlc stu
dents, faculty and staff "planned
thefutureoftheCollege"by assem
bling a long-rnngearch.itecwralmap
of the campus. campus would be further djvided
mto "quadrants ... clearly separaung
theacadermc area from the restdcn
tiaJ area.
The plan called for the even·
rual desttucuon of some eJUsting
buildings (mcluding Odell and
St.ewan halls, Bodine and the Bio
psych building) and the COOSUUC·
tion of many new d01m. , cta.ss
rooms. office buildings and parlcmg
garages.
However. nearly one year after the plan was presented to the LC
commuruty. many have forgoucn
enwely about the plan. Is tl still in
the works?
Wayne Pedersen, LC vice
president for business and finance,
cero:Unly hasn •t forgotten about the
master plan.
"The master plan that was fin
ished last summer was a conceptual
design," he srud. "It needed to be
flushed out for submission to the
city." Throughout a series of com
mince meetings and public fora, a
master plan wus established for lhe
C3mpus, a plan with many new
buildings, walkways and parking
garages.
Them aster plan was developed
for LC by SERA architects and
Sasaki Associates. Under the plan,
Odell Manor would become the
cenLerpiece of the campus.. The Beacom wins run-off

At 9:15 in the
Plaufonn Monday mght
the two candidates for
ASLCpreSJdcnt were both
tenSely awaiting the ~ullS
of the run-off election.
When the announce
ment was made Amy
Beacom breathed an au
dible sigh of relief: she
h.ad won.
When asked whm her
goals for her twill were
Beacom said "To get as
much done as possible,to
listen, lO hear what's go
ing on. anstead of talk.
There has been too much
talk."
One thing she would
like to~ improved is the
counselingccntctonCM\·
pus.
She hopes to bring
about programs including eating disorder assistance and rnpc
counseling.
Beacom says she hopes to see
Tony Ross (the other cnndidatc for
ASLC JR.Sldenl) worklllg closely
wtth her throughout her tam.
1f he had won she would have
liked to work with him she says. and
she's confident Ross will remain
very acuve with ASLC.
"I guess I can Jus! say lhDl t
plan to remain optimistic and open."
concluded Beacom.
Note: This iJ the lasl iauc of
TM Paonur Log for the &cam.
Have a gJtal spdng break! According to Pedersen, there
was more than o face-lift in mind
when the master plan was begun
last year. ..We exist here as an
educatiorutl institution in a residen
tial area under a conditional use
approved by the city of Pon.land, ..
he said ... And our master plan, that
we did last year, amounts to an
update of that conditional use.
"When there is significant
change in the e.~ isting campus. &hen you must cake it back for another
conditional use approval, and that's
what's happening right now," he
said.
So OVCf the cowse of the past
ye:u, Pedersen nnd others h3vc been
worlcing with the CityofPortlD.nd's
Bureau of Planning in finalizing
LC's plnn.
Final approval of the plan will
be decided ata hearing which i set

Confronting LC' s alcohol policy myth
To Jhe Ediror::
For about two years now, the
admm1sLtauon has been ughtenmg
thelt gnp on the so called "alcohol
situauon ... from 1988-89. when the
basic rules were "no kegs Ul t.he
security office or Ul the preside or • s
office" to the prc.sent "No dnnlcing
or thoughts about drinkmg wall be
allowed anywhere wilhin fifty feet
of the campus." Oddly enough, the
number of on·campus dwellers and
studenL~ enrolling hns dropped as
weU. In the fall of 1988 students in
Odell were obligalcd Lo h vc in tnplc
doubles (you got it. three people Ul
a room made for a small pet); m
fact. getting a room at all was a
mimcle 11 you were not a freshmBil.

let'"~ re Yaew the sequence of event\
FttSl they ban alcohol on campus
and then nobody wants to hvc on
campus ... hmmm.
Recently we all recctvetl n
memo m ow new und improved
cnmpus boxes. Tht memo had
plenty ot code numbers an Jl1.11Cn· theses, but boiled down, tt bastcatly
pomted out that if you were caught
in possession of alcohol you would
be stuclc Ul &hum~ manacles and
t.hrown m a pn full of snakes. I guess
tlus means I'U have to get rid of my
mOutable meth-lab.
The administrauon says they
have no choice. and that we will
loose our federaJ funding. Well, for
t.hett mfortru1tion lhaLlaw has never
actually been enforced; m fact, nu
merous private schools JUst hke
Lcwts and Clark stmply don 'l have
antemal alcohol policies. 'Then

ISLC vs. ISALC; wherein lies the difference?
by Rachel Carter
of tM Pwneer Log
Acronyms around the Lewis
and Clark campus are as common
as dandcltons m springume, and
keepmgabreastofthevnnousmcan
mgs can be challengmg. Indeed,
g1ven the nse and dcmrse of student
groups and commmees, il often
seems wJSer to wrut unul an acro
nym has been floaung around for
quite some time before bothenng to
fmd out what rt's about
The case of ISLC and JSALC,
however. does bode some rnvesu
gation, as 1t is a common mLSUlke lO
assume that. Lhe yare the same thing.
"Last year, when 1 came mta
this office, even promment ASLC
members .... called me the vice-presi
dent of ISALC," srud Shahzeb
Jillaru, the newly-elected ptU~dent
of ISLC.
"ISALC" sumds for .. lnstllllte

stands for "International Students
of Lewis and Clark ...
ISALC is an intensive Engltsh
language program for intemallonal
studentS, and rs part of Lewis and
Clark College. Scrictly forthestudy
of English as a second language, it
offers classes in reading and writ
mg to all mtemational students, re·
gnrdless of whether or not they m
tend lOgo to LC upon compleuon of
the program.
The program consiStS of lan
guage-proficiency levels one
through five, five bemg the most
advanced.
A student must complete level
five before they are considered ready
for undergraduate studies at an
American university .
JSALC swdentsare allowed to
vote in ASLC elections.
"ISALC is one of the best m
tensJve language programs rn the
Unued States," said Jillant. "ISALC, the mstiwtion, 1S Cor fer.
ergn students who want lO learn
English. lSLC is for everyone:·
The role of ISLC is a political
one. Its pnmary responsibilities are
to represent the international stu
dents of LC and safeguard thea
interests, to help overcome cullUJt
shock, and to promote mteracuon
between cultures

RA appeals, review
Some students are pushmg for
a process through whach RAs would
be able to appeal their dismissal.
The as!\ue of confidentiality Within
personal employment siwations is
causing concern
"It's a work siwntion." said
Hopp. "It's not a student issue. in
this sense. A lot ofit is subjective
it's notnjudicinllcind of issue."
Madson agreed. "To review
individua.l appointments one by
one u 'san employmenLsituation,
not to be reviewed b)' the commu·
nlly. To have a judication ~ystem
for employment sanctions is inap·
propriatt,'" said Madson.
An appeals pnxes-" for RA.s to
go lhrough would be necessary '"if
the RA disputeS the reasons why he
was fired," according to Ted Bemce,
an Odell resident
.. In general. most of the time.
RAs are given feedback and put on
probation," said Hopp. She added
that she could not thmk of an in
SW\CC in which a dismas.scd RA did
not receive verbal communacation
prior to l.he dismis.cal.
Carttrcompaml the RAs' siw-
ation to other occup3tions. "You
get at least two weeks' noucc (in a
real job)," she said. She added that in the case of the RAs, they received
no warning for charge~ with ··no
hard evidence."
RA evaluation forms tilled out
by res1dents ace an imponant pan in
assessing theu perfonnance.s .
"Weare thusty for your mput.,''
saad Mtchele Toppe, RD for Forest/
Hart.7feld. She suessed the tmpor
tance of filling out RA evaluations
at the end of each term.
"~h RD gives a synopsis on
ccte h RA ," S<Ud Hopp. ·'The quotes
ubout the RA.scome from thee\alu·
alion torms. RA evaluation torms
hould rcfl~t responses from the
job de.scnptions," said Hopp.
Alcohol policy
"I began my career as un RA,"
said Madson. "1 think it's ~ible
to maintain group living and not be

"Friday night, 1 was ple.ased.

alcohol policy,'' said Madson. ''ll's
not the role for any stan person 1.0
go looking for alcohol. However,
it's not f<X" us to ignore problems.
That doesn't mean that an RA
doesn't have choices in how they
respond."
C:u1et suggested that another
group of swdents take the: ~sponsi

policy. ..Why not the

floor.
"Arc the RA!i m the conect

Proud to be an American -have no regrets for heart-felt patriotism
To 1~ Editor:
I am writing in response lO Ryan Farr' s
column published in last week's thePionur
Log, tilled"A Cold War past-Admit it and go
on," v.ruch grcslly disturbed me. I seriously
disagn:c v.ith Fan's comments regarding
patriotism and his auiwde toward the Cold
War.
Farr msinuates that loving our own coun
lt)' somehow means we must hate someone
else's. nus caused a rise in my alre3dy
enthusiasuc pauiOlism.
I, like Farr, am from a small town, and
someumes am a .. product of my small town
mentality." But do 1 have a ·~cold War Hung·
up"? Dol hal.C Commun&StS? Of course not!
But would I rnther hve an America than the
So .. ·iet Union? Absolutely! I do not feel this
as a problem that I need to acl:nowledge (a~
Farr snys}. Instead, I belic'e 1t1S JUSt
all-Amencan pride.
Farr asks his readers to admit their prob
lem about the Cold Wnr. Instead, I'U admit
this:
I did like Rocky IV-it W'.iS not a "'lame
movie... In fact, it illustrated that it was
possible for one country tocheeronu rivaling
count.ry's athlete. It did not promote hatred toward the Soviet Union.
Farr also states, "And worst of all -I
know aU thewordstoLeeGreenwood's"l 'm
proud to be an American" (where atleastl
know I'm free). Worsl of all?
I have also memorized that song, and I
am proud to be an American' Knowmg the
words to such a pauiotic song 1s not some
thing to mock. Neither is pride in one, s

th:u I have a flag that represenL~ a lot of what
his country IS searching for.
Did Farr ever stop to thmk about the

world auiwde." l love my country even
more. and carry hope for the rest or the world.
1 am gn.u.eful that we do not have tO strUggle
for all that the Soviet Union is reaclung for. Does this make me hate the Russians?
No. ~ this mean 1 hate Japan? No. Does
thl~ mean l beheve Ollie Nonh or Ronald
Reagan? No. Docs this mean that I beheve

So what does all this mean?

It means that I feel sympathy for aU those
people who do not enjoy aU t.hc freedoms that
we Lake for grJntcd everyday.
It means that I feel "to die for God and
country" -this country-is the most noble
w.~y to pass from this earth.
It means 1 cheer on the Soviet Union, and
wi:ih Litem luck!
Now, I'm sure that not everyone has

Women's voices heard all year, not just at selected times and events
fo I~ Edi10r:
Aftct I read John Frost's article
regarding the "silent majority" 1 felt
slapped in the face. Frost makes
wide generalities concerning
women's voices on this campus,
and by doing so. falsifies the uuth.
He S"teS th.a1 although women on this campus fonn the majority of
students,they are "an aJmosl silent
majority."
He back$ up his statement by
explaining that only during select
times of the year does the college
community hear from women. Hjs
cumples are limited to Tili Back the Night, the Gender Syrnpos1um,
and the ASLC presidential clec
uons. He further states that "for the
rest of the year this tremendous
force rem.Uns silenL"
There is nothing ''s1lent'' about
the majority of women at Lewis and
Clarlc. All during the year. and al all
times of the day we speak verbally tO our friends, faculty. and fellow
studentS; we speak v-Ciually with
our art forms; plus we speak
literarily through our papers, prose
and poeuy.
Funher, we do not hold our

Several key questions surfaced
at the open forum held Friday mght
•There ts a demand for more
clarity 10 outlmang the job descrip

evaluauon and finng process for
these poSJUons. How can residenLc;
be made more aware of these i\
sues? How can the evaluauon and

•The satuation between an RA

some students fecllhat RAs should

feellhat the prot.ection of confiden

•Should the RAs be respon

Progress made on master plan for campus development

of the Pionetr Log
h has been a liule under one

bling a long-rnngearch.itecwralmap
of the campus. campus would be further djvided
mto "quadrants ... clearly separaung
theacadermc area from the restdcn
tiaJ area.
The plan called for the even·
rual desttucuon of some eJUsting
buildings (mcluding Odell and
St.ewan halls, Bodine and the Bio
psych building) and the COOSUUC·
tion of many new d01m. , cta.ss
rooms. office buildings and parlcmg
garages.
However. nearly one year after the plan was presented to the LC
commuruty. many have forgoucn
enwely about the plan. Is tl still in
the works?
Wayne Pedersen, LC vice
president for business and finance,
cero:Unly hasn •t forgotten about the
master plan.
"The master plan that was fin
ished last summer was a conceptual
design," he srud. "It needed to be
flushed out for submission to the
city." Throughout a series of com
mince meetings and public fora, a
master plan wus established for lhe
C3mpus, a plan with many new
buildings, walkways and parking
garages.
Them aster plan was developed
for LC by SERA architects and
Sasaki Associates. Under the plan,
Odell Manor would become the
cenLerpiece of the campus.. The Beacom wins run-off

the two candidates for

of the run-off election.
When the announce

Beacom breathed an au

When asked whm her

Beacom said "To get as

There has been too much

One thing she would
like to~ improved is the

She hopes to bring
about programs including eating disorder assistance and rnpc
counseling.
Beacom says she hopes to see
Tony Ross (the other cnndidatc for
ASLC JR.Sldenl) worklllg closely
wtth her throughout her tam.
1f he had won she would have
liked to work with him she says. and
she's confident Ross will remain
very acuve with ASLC.
"I guess I can Jus! say lhDl t

concluded Beacom.
Note: This iJ the lasl iauc of
TM Paonur Log for the &cam.
Have a gJtal spdng break! According to Pedersen, there
was more than o face-lift in mind
when the master plan was begun
last year. ..We exist here as an
educatiorutl institution in a residen
tial area under a conditional use
approved by the city of Pon.land, ..
he said ... And our master plan, that
we did last year, amounts to an
update of that conditional use.
"When there is significant
change in the e.~ isting campus. &hen you must cake it back for another
conditional use approval, and that's
what's happening right now," he
said.
So OVCf the cowse of the past
ye:u, Pedersen nnd others h3vc been
worlcing with the CityofPortlD.nd's
Bureau of Planning in finalizing
LC's plnn.

Confronting LC' s alcohol policy myth
To Jhe Ediror::
For about two years now, the
admm1sLtauon has been ughtenmg
thelt gnp on the so called "alcohol
situauon ... from 1988-89. when the
basic rules were "no kegs Ul t.he
security office or Ul the preside or • s
office" to the prc.sent "No dnnlcing
or thoughts about drinkmg wall be
allowed anywhere wilhin fifty feet
of the campus." Oddly enough, the
number of on·campus dwellers and
studenL~ enrolling hns dropped as
weU. In the fall of 1988 students in
Odell were obligalcd Lo h vc in tnplc
doubles (you got it. three people Ul
a room made for a small pet); m
fact. getting a room at all was a
mimcle 11 you were not a freshmBil.
Thlf1gsarea liuJediffcrentnow,

FttSl they ban alcohol on campus
and then nobody wants to hvc on
campus ... hmmm.
Recently we all recctvetl n
memo m ow new und improved
cnmpus boxes. Tht memo had
plenty ot code numbers an Jl1.11Cn· theses, but boiled down, tt bastcatly
pomted out that if you were caught
in possession of alcohol you would
be stuclc Ul &hum~ manacles and
t.hrown m a pn full of snakes. I guess
tlus means I'U have to get rid of my
mOutable meth-lab.
The administrauon says they
have no choice. and that we will
loose our federaJ funding. Well, for
t.hett mfortru1tion lhaLlaw has never
actually been enforced; m fact, nu
merous private schools JUst hke
Lcwts and Clark stmply don 'l have
antemal alcohol policies. 'Then

ISLC vs. ISALC; wherein lies the difference?

Acronyms around the Lewis

seems wJSer to wrut unul an acro

quite some time before bothenng to
fmd out what rt's about
The case of ISLC and JSALC,
however. does bode some rnvesu
gation, as 1t is a common mLSUlke lO
assume that. Lhe yare the same thing.
"Last year, when 1 came mta
this office, even promment ASLC

ISALC is an intensive Engltsh
language program for intemallonal
studentS, and rs part of Lewis and

of English as a second language, it
offers classes in reading and writ

gnrdless of whether or not they m

the program.
The program consiStS of lan

advanced.
A student must complete level
five before they are considered ready
for undergraduate studies at an
American university .
JSALC swdentsare allowed to
vote in ASLC elections.
"ISALC is one of the best m
tensJve language programs rn the

The role of ISLC is a political
one. Its pnmary responsibilities are
to represent the international stu

Therem lies the difference.

I contin~d from page one
difference his proposal and Tabor's
IS Lhat under Frost's proposal, the
RHA would be a part of the student
councal.
''h's a superb idea," satd
Madson of the tde.a ot' an RHA. "1
would hope the RHA would ask
what would make residence life
better " He saad that he hoped the
RHA could serve to work on issues
an addiuon lO RA policies.
One of the first proposed tasks
of the RHA would be LO produce a
res1dcnce life handbook Thtsdocu
ment would cl~ly ~uue the job
dcscaiptions of the RA' and RDs
and their cvaluauon and firing
guidelines and procedure s.
"A tool that'~ going to work
everything out would be 8 nice,
compact ughtlittle notebook," said
Jan Clemons, member of the Resi-
dence Life Commission.
It was also sugges!Cd that the
RDs be requ1red to discuss the dis
miSSal of an RA among themselves
before action tO remove the RA
lakes place.
"The idea is, when an RD has a
problem wath an RA, they give a

amembcrofthecommission. ''RDs
together can make decisions. There
would be consistency ."
"Our basic goal is the highest
qual it yresideoce I ifc possible," said
Rru.: hel Carter, member of the com
mt:sion. She suggcsa.ed that the
commi~ion could serve to intet-pret the handbook o.nd make judg
ments. Cartersrud that thecommis
saon should have power to mnlcc
recommendauons and be constd
erec1.
RA appeals, review
Some students are pushmg for
a process through whach RAs would
be able to appeal their dismissal.
The as!\ue of confidentiality Within
personal employment siwations is
causing concern
"It's a work siwntion." said
Hopp. "It's not a student issue. in
this sense. A lot ofit is subjective
it's notnjudicinllcind of issue."
Madson agreed. "To review
individua.l appointments one by
one u 'san employmenLsituation,
not to be reviewed b)' the commu·
nlly. To have a judication ~ystem
for employment sanctions is inap·
propriatt,'" said Madson.
An appeals pnxes-" for RA.s to
go lhrough would be necessary '"if
the RA disputeS the reasons why he
was fired," according to Ted Bemce,
an Odell resident
.. In general. most of the time.
RAs are given feedback and put on
probation," said Hopp. She added
that she could not thmk of an in
SW\CC in which a dismas.scd RA did
not receive verbal communacation
prior to l.he dismis.cal.
Carttrcompaml the RAs' siw-
ation to other occup3tions. "You
get at least two weeks' noucc (in a
real job)," she said. She added that in the case of the RAs, they received
no warning for charge~ with ··no
hard evidence."
RA evaluation forms tilled out
by res1dents ace an imponant pan in
assessing theu perfonnance.s .
"Weare thusty for your mput.,''
saad Mtchele Toppe, RD for Forest/
Hart.7feld. She suessed the tmpor
tance of filling out RA evaluations
at the end of each term.
"~h RD gives a synopsis on
ccte h RA ," S<Ud Hopp. ·'The quotes
ubout the RA.scome from thee\alu·
alion torms. RA evaluation torms
hould rcfl~t responses from the
job de.scnptions," said Hopp.
Alcohol policy
"I began my career as un RA,"
said Madson. "1 think it's ~ible
to maintain group living and not be
seen a' the bad guy. For the good ot
the community, if someone L" mis
ang heU,.somcbody '~go t to take the
lcadershtp role.
"Friday night, 1 was ple.ased.
fronkly. to hem-that most people
understand we have to enforce the
alcohol policy,'' said Madson. ''ll's
not the role for any stan person 1.0
go looking for alcohol. However,
it's not f<X" us to ignore problems.
That doesn't mean that an RA
doesn't have choices in how they
respond."
C:u1et suggested that another
group of swdents take the: ~sponsi
bility of enforcing the alcohol
policy. ..Why not the
YellowjackeLS?" she said. She said that thls would not disrupt the friend
hips between an RA and the RA 's
floor.
"Arc the RA!i m the conect
position7" asked Caner. "h ruins
the cohesiveness of the floor. I
don't want cops in my house.''
Hopp smd that a decrease in

Proud to be an American -have no regrets for heart-felt patriotism
To 1~ Editor:
I am writing in response lO Ryan Farr' s
column published in last week's thePionur
Log, tilled"A Cold War past-Admit it and go
on," v.ruch grcslly disturbed me. I seriously
disagn:c v.ith Fan's comments regarding
patriotism and his auiwde toward the Cold
War.
Farr msinuates that loving our own coun
lt)' somehow means we must hate someone
else's. nus caused a rise in my alre3dy
enthusiasuc pauiOlism.
I, like Farr, am from a small town, and
someumes am a .. product of my small town
mentality." But do 1 have a ·~cold War Hung·
up"? Dol hal.C Commun&StS? Of course not!
But would I rnther hve an America than the
So .. ·iet Union? Absolutely! I do not feel this
as a problem that I need to acl:nowledge (a~
Farr snys}. Instead, I belic'e 1t1S JUSt
all-Amencan pride.
Farr asks his readers to admit their prob
lem about the Cold Wnr. Instead, I'U admit
this:
I did like Rocky IV-it W'.iS not a "'lame
movie... In fact, it illustrated that it was
possible for one country tocheeronu rivaling
count.ry's athlete. It did not promote hatred toward the Soviet Union.
Farr also states, "And worst of all -I
know aU thewordstoLeeGreenwood's"l 'm
proud to be an American" (where atleastl
know I'm free). Worsl of all?
I have also memorized that song, and I
am proud to be an American' Knowmg the
words to such a pauiotic song 1s not some
thing to mock. Neither is pride in one, s

th:u I have a flag that represenL~ a lot of what
his country IS searching for.
Did Farr ever stop to thmk about the
re'lson why Victor Peuenko chose to skate to

also a changed person. I also have a • new
world auiwde." l love my country even
more. and carry hope for the rest or the world.
1 am gn.u.eful that we do not have tO strUggle
for all that the Soviet Union is reaclung for. Does this make me hate the Russians?
No. ~ this mean 1 hate Japan? No. Does
thl~ mean l beheve Ollie Nonh or Ronald
Reagan? No. Docs this mean that I beheve
everythtng our government d~ IS right, and
fair. and JUSt? No. No. no. no, no.
So what does all this mean?
lt means that 1 beheve in Amenca and 1

died so I can live in a coumry as great as thlS.
It means that I feel sympathy for aU those
people who do not enjoy aU t.hc freedoms that
we Lake for grJntcd everyday.
It means that I feel "to die for God and
country" -this country-is the most noble
w.~y to pass from this earth.
It means 1 cheer on the Soviet Union, and
wi:ih Litem luck!
Now, I'm sure that not everyone has

Women's voices heard all year, not just at selected times and events
fo I~ Edi10r:
Aftct I read John Frost's article
regarding the "silent majority" 1 felt
slapped in the face. Frost makes
wide generalities concerning
women's voices on this campus,
and by doing so. falsifies the uuth.
He S"teS th.a1 although women on this campus fonn the majority of
students,they are "an aJmosl silent
majority."
He back$ up his statement by
explaining that only during select
times of the year does the college
community hear from women. Hjs
cumples are limited to Tili Back the Night, the Gender Syrnpos1um,
and the ASLC presidential clec
uons. He further states that "for the
rest of the year this tremendous
force rem.Uns silenL"
There is nothing ''s1lent'' about
the majority of women at Lewis and
Clarlc. All during the year. and al all
times of the day we speak verbally tO our friends, faculty. and fellow
studentS; we speak v-Ciually with
our art forms; plus we speak
literarily through our papers, prose
and poeuy.
Funher, we do not hold our
opinions under our tongues which
your column made reference to by
staling that some "feel 1f you step out of line you will gt"t shot"
