by Jeremy Brown
Taking their classroom les­
sons into the courtroom, a group
often Lewis & Clark law school
students and alumm wdl present
their case against the proposed
Houston Field pnrlfing lot LO the
Oregon L1nd Use lloard ,,r A p·
peals on October 29 111 Salem
The proposed l01 incll,ckcl m
the College's ten-year m;istcr
plan, would pave a section of
forest near the law school and
potcnually aITcct two foclernlly
protected wetlands and an en­
dangered populat,on of s1ccl­
hcad trout in Tryon Creek. The
lot is separate from the one pro•
posed in 1ht master plan for the
north end of the undergraduate
campus.
This legal bauk follows the
law students' appeal last spring
of Portland City Council's ap•
proval of the master plan. The
council rejected that appeal
unanimously. According to Brent
Foster and Brett Brownscombc, two of the law students who filed
the appeal, the case has more 10
do with pubhc safety and trans•
portation impoc1s than with
trout or trees.
.. There are much better ways
10 solve LC's parking problem
than JUSt ndding another park­
mg l01." Foster said, The law SIU·
dents .,lso claim that the bike
path from the proposed l01 to the
law school is dangerously dark
and narrow.
Administraiion officials
counter 1hai it will be impossible
to reduce car traffic significantly
enough to make 1he lot unncc•
essary and that 1he bike path will
be adequately patrolled, M ichacl
Scstric, faciliLies planner, said
that vehicle traffic would have
10 be CUI In hair in order 10 avoid
addmg the lot. "I don't see 50
percent or 1hose cars go111g
awni•." he said. "That's a big
number,"
Originally. construction on
the l01 was scheduled 10 begin
this summer, but the lcng1h of the hearing process made i1 im­
possible 10 begin work. Now the
lot's consmic1ion 1s on hold in•
definitely.
According 10 Ses1ric, the Col­
lege has turned Its nnenllon 10
building a larger parking struc·
1ure on the main campus hchmd
Pamplin Sports Center. But, he
said, "Even i[ we do build the
garage. we'v<" still got 10 have
parking al the law school."
That answer doesn't sallsfy
1he law students "The school
needs LO pul a good faith cITon
,mo really pushing for transpor•
muon alternatives."
Brownscombc said. "I don't
think the school's domg that
now.•
Foster charges that the col­
lege and the city of Portland
made signifk-:mt errors in draw­
ing up and approving the mas­
ter plan, Oregon land use policy
calls for a 10 pcrccm recluc1ion
in per capita parking spaces over
the next 20 years. In calculating
1hc per capila number of park• ing spaces on campus, the Col­
lege used ils maximum alloncd
1,740 spaces rnther than the cx­
lSting number of 1,468, ,,-----
There are much better
ways to solve LC's park­
Ing problem than just
adding another parking
lot.
Brent Foster
Law Student -----,,
"They're using tin· specula•
tivc number ... Foster said.
"'These mcn't C\•cn rcnl sp.;1ccs."
Scstric acknowledges that the
College's calculations include
the higher number. "We're
CO\tnting what we've been au-
1honzed to build there." he said.

First Environmental Studies symposium set for October

To mark the launch of the En­

Lewis & Clark College. depart­

the inaugural graduating class
have organized I he first annual
LC Environmental Studies Sym­
posmm !or Oc1. 19-23.
Designed and planned by a

According 10 Williams, much
of the credit for the event's plan­
ning belongs 10 the students.
lasl spring, Williams and the
majors discussed 1hc planning of
the fall senior seminar. "They
decided a symposium would be
a great way 10 sian off the pro­
gram with a bang," the chemis­

New Internet connection
will be tested in Platt
By Linnea Jean Thompson
A new kind or lnlemel COil·
neetion technology will be tested
soon in Plau residence hall. ac­
cording to Jon Elderidge, Direc•
tor of Residence Life.
Currently, slUdents In Plan,
like those in about 60 percem of
residence halls on campus, must
use :l modem to access the
lnt.cmcl. Ho\,tCvcr, starting soon,
Plnu res,dems will be able to
access the lmemcl using Sym•
metrical Digital Subscriber Linc
(SDSL), • fairly new technology
1ha1 is about 10 times as fast as
a modc1u.
SDSL Is a technology that
uses the exis\ing copper phone
lines LO transmit information,
but does not use a 1raclltional
modem. lnstcad. each room in
Plan will be able to borrow the
necessary converter, and it will
communkatc \Ylth another box
m the Plau phone wiring closet.
There are two main adva11-
1ages 10 this technology over
using a modem. The first oclvan-
1age is speed, as SDSL is around 10 times as fast as a modem, The
second a<lvan1.c1gc is that one c~m
use the phone for voice and
lntemet acc.tss simultaneously.
SDSL is being tried as a short•
lcrm solution to "'wire" the:
dorms cheaply and quickly, at
around 15-20 perccm ol the cost
of Ethernet, however it is not
able 10 handle Ethernet's high
transfer speed,
The trial will allow up to 90
pcrccm of Platt residents 10 use
this new technology, They will
be able to check oul the convert­
ers at no cosl. However, they will
need to supply their own com­
puters with Ethernet cards 10 be
part of the trial.
According to Elderidge. the
college wants evemuaUy 10 allow
everyone to access the 1ntcrnel
as quickly and easily as possible.
without tying up the phone line..
Currently, around 40 percent of
the residence halls arc wired for
Ethernet, and the rest arc lim•
itecl 10 modem connections. If
l his trial works well, it may be
extended 10 other dorms next
year. the past two years to lhc creation
of an Environmental Studies
major at LC, believes 1hai every
environmental issue has connec•
tions with lhe: humanities, the.,~
social sciences, and the natural
sciences. '"You cannot look at an
environmental issue without
looking al all three of those as•
pecis," Williams said. "That's
built into the major and it's built
into the symposium."
With panel discussions
planned for topics such as cli­
mate comrol, nltemauve energy sources, and cncbngcrcd species,
Williams hopes this philosophy
will crcace and mainrnin a bal ..
anced ptrspcc1ivc for the cvcm.
The symposmm will lcamre not
only environmemalisl speakers,
bu1 conservative voices coming
to raise their concerns as well.
For instance.John Belton, a pri•
vate timber owner and biologist,
will speak on the effect of the
Endangered Species Act and
government regulations on Lhe
umber industry,
Accordmg to Follell, 1hts bal-anced perspective is essential to
addressing environmental prob•
lcms. "There's a third step of en•
vnonmcntalism emerging Lh:u
involves starting civil discourse.
and esLablishing a common
ground," Folleu said. "For yen rs
it's just been opposing s,dcs
withoul discourse.•
J,Villiams concurs, "To solve
pro9lems you can'l just do yom
own ,hing, you have to sec
where other people arc Loming
from as well." he said. "You can't
save the planet by yourself"

Lecture halls arc a 1h111g or the past.

the reading assignmentS for yollr dass.
Many or you will even cake notes on these
readings, going so far as 10 actually high­
light the material and write reactions. The
rollowing advice is not for you; close this
newspaper right now ,ind get back 10 your

note who will be doing 1he majority or
chc talking. who will be doing the major­
ity or 1he lisccmng, and who will be star­
ing out the window watching the seasons

who sound like chey know what they a.re

Now don'1 pny too much aucni1on,
jusl pick om phrases and key words 1ha1
you can use in case 1he professor calls on
you. Thnt way you will alway, be re:1dy

Perhaps you h~ve noticed
that Lewis and Clark has few
tenured professors. In fact. 111 chc
Foreign Language clcpanmc111
alone~ 1hcrc arc only ten tenured
or cenure-track professors while
there arc 17 adjunct Professors.
While this raises questions in
the student population about
why we should have 10 pay
28,000 dollars to anend a col-
legc hiring part-time professors
and visiting rather than worklng
on pcnnanem faculty that you
can rely upon, in most c,,scs.
1hcre. is a very good reason. Prac•
ticalicy speaking, chere arc only
so many spaces alloued for ten­

When more stu<lt:ntS sign up for

to tench, chc school must hire

pos111ons, however. is a slow
process, necessitating the hiring
of adjunct professors. Without
those adjunct professors, your
classes would either not cxi.st or
be held ln Fir Acres so that all of
che students who requested it
could be accommodated.
This is the case for many, bm
not all of Lhc departments. Many
of our beloved professors have
decided 10 take sabbaticals of
varying lengths clunng ,he 98/ 99 :.icadcnuc vcar. Consequently.
1hc: school has lnrc<l several vis­

bad thing. Many stu<lentS enjoy

There is yet another reason
for chc seemingly low number or

Burnside Cadillac gives the homeless a voice

The 1111111sillc· Cadillac started
as a newslcuer for the Bndge

into a full monthly newspaper in

Sharon Pearson's otiginnJ intcnl.
Along with this accomplish­

show is Monet's ability 10 rem•
vent his slylc and his extreme
love of nature and art.
for those who arc not famil­
iar with Claude Monet, this ex­
hibition will be like rtading the

they do not retell his entire life

One of the reasons that this
exhibition is so important is be ..
cause it shows viewers some of
the seeds of modern art. As ohe
exposition progresses, ohe paino­
ings become exoreincly absornct
in nature~ A painting in one of
the first rooms is simply a col• lection or wavy, colon:d, swirl­
ing, intcrconneumg lines :md

any paroicularly recognizable

mgs done by Jackson Pollock m

color r:.uhcr than fonn.
The other recognizable sub­
ject in Monc1's paintings, besides
the water lilies. is 1he Japanese
bridge. The series or bridges in
this show is amazing. Monet
approaches just one subjc.:1 In

Women's soccer
team works to
build comraderie,
not competition.
By Meaghan Lamarre
Lewis & Clarks women's soc­
cer ieam has a place for every­
one, from lifelong players to
people inspired by this year's
World Cup. Women of various
levels of skill compete on the
team; those new to soccer learn
from the more experienced play­
ers. Together, Lhe players com•
binc 1heir individual skills and
talents to benefi1 the team.
The team has no official

in both coaching and playing.
Practices ore every Monday,
Wednesday and Friday but they
aren'L manda1ory so players who
have 100 much reading for ln­
venling America can skip a prac•
ticc without feeling guilty.
The team plays against other
schools and as well as against
1cams in a Pon land recreational
league. As pan of the rec league, they have games on Sundays and
play against various groups of
women. some college 11ge. and
some older. The team tied one
of its games 2-2 and lost another
4-1. In the laner game, the op­
posmg team was ccnainly aided
by a lack of players on the Lewis
& Clark bench (they played the
game with only 10 players).
That's a recurring problem ac­
cording to freshman team mem­
ber Magda Ph.illips: the team isn't
very organized and no one's sure
who'll be at the games. "h will
be bener." she said, "when we
get our new 1-shins." The teams

arrive soon.
